=== lhorace is now known as Horace2 [00:33] kdeconnect has never worked for me at my work, since it'd require manually setting the hostname (since it's traversing subnets) and that isn't actually supported yet, not really :( [00:35] The Android app currently lets you set hostnames or IP addresses . . . but then doesn't list those as available devices (despite the Android phone being otherwise able to connect just fine to the desktop in question via any *other* method). Le sigh. [00:37] that is my precise problem [00:43] valorie: huh, and I assume you don't have as wonky as a setup as mine even, eh? (I'm connecting via OpenVPN to my work network) [00:45] nope, just a cable modem and router (which I think might be dying) [00:45] I wish I knew how to test out that theory of a dying router [00:47] i wanna be sure this device is compatible with aircrack Network controller: Ralink corp. RT3290 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe [00:49] valorie: No log files to be read? I suppose you probably have an off-the-shelf router, personally I feel uneasy if my router isn't running a normal-ish Linux install that I can actually poke and prod like I'm used to. [00:50] yes, just a cisco/linksys [00:56] pc-moon: I can't find any evidence that the card in question is actually supported, so I'd suspect not (or at least not for things like packet injection). [01:02] yea i just saw is rt2x00 or [01:02] RaLink RT2570USB Enhanced Driver or [01:02] RaLink RT73 USB Enhanced Driver [01:02] for same brand [01:03] should i pay new device [01:03] first thank you for replaying [01:03] pc-moon: Is this a device you already have? [01:04] yea i have it [01:05] valorie: what other symptoms are you experiencing? Although, IMHO most off-the-shelf routers are pretty terrible, especially software-wise, so it's almost always worth flashing (or buying one that can be flashed) something like Tomato-USB atop them. It's kindof shocking how much of a difference that can make. [01:05] when im trying this code : airserv-ng -d wlan0 [01:06] i get results is [01:06] Opening card wlan0 [01:06] ioctl(SIOCSIWMODE) failed: Device or resource busy [01:06] ARP linktype is set to 1 (Ethernet) - expected ARPHRD_IEEE80211, [01:06] ARPHRD_IEEE80211_FULL or ARPHRD_IEEE80211_PRISM instead. Make [01:06] sure RFMON is enabled: run 'airmon-ng start wlan0 <#>' [01:06] pc-moon you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted [01:08] pc-moon: I honestly can't remember ever using airserv-ng, IIRC I always just started airmon-ng and then was able to run stuff like airodump-ng just fine. If I needed to do packet injection at the same time I usually just use another adapter. [01:08] But as mentioned by the error, you need to have airmon-ng running anyways first. [01:08] do you? [01:09] yea i have mon1 [01:10] Hmm I'm not sure that actually implies that it's *working*. [01:11] sorry have look here http://paste.ubuntu.com/9907800/ [01:13] but i cant kill networkmanager or avahi-daemon because internet will disconnect [01:20] pc-moon: you could try a more automated frontend like airoscript-ng, but honestly if you're trying to keep up a normal internet connection while also trying to use the interface for sniffing I don't think you're making it very easy for yourself!

I will look for ubuntu-minimal but is there any way to use kubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso and use preseed.cfg? [06:10] nitin_: I honestly do forget, it's been ages since I fiddled with PXE stuff, but at least in the abstract (maybe not precisely in the same way you're trying to do it, but with the same result) it should be possible. Have you looked at the last section in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallServer? [06:10] Also, you might consider asking in #ubuntu-server since in a sense this is more a server-side question. [06:17] My kmix suddenly stopped working.. I mean, it works, but it does no longer change audio volume.. Any ideas what the problem might be? [06:17] phoenixz: PulseAudio. The problem is always PulseAudio ;) (I kid, I kid . . . mostly) [06:18] keithzg: Yeah, I was affraid of that.. How could I resolve this? [06:18] keithzg: Problem is not the PXE. I am able to install over PXE but problem with live CD which is now only released with Desktop CD. Erlier it is released with alternate CD in 12.04 which contain netboot image and we can use preseed.efg to automte the install. Now there kubuntu deskto CD come with preinstalled image and do not support preseed.cfg [06:21] phoenixz: I suppose first we should establish, by "stopped working" what exactly do you mean? Is it just the volume keys, or also when opening up the full kmix window? [06:22] phoenixz: You could also try alternate volume frontends and see if they work. [06:23] nitin_: Couldn't you just use debconf-get-selections to get the values and edit the netinstall preseed.cfg accordingly? [06:23] keithzg: fixed it, pulseaudio -k [06:23] keithzg: problem was that kmix all worked, except that the audio volume did not change [06:23] but pulseaudio -k fixed it [06:24] Yeah, the problem is always pulseaudio . . . hence many folks' lack of enthusiasm for systemd, heh. [06:27] nitin_: If you take a look at https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/example-preseed.txt near the end, it mentions hwo to use debconf-get-selections to get the output you'd need to put in a preseed.cfg to replicate an existing install's package selection and setup. [06:28] Thanks keithzg. I will take a look [06:28] nitin_: No problem, hope it works for ya [06:41] keithzg: Problem is not preseed.cfg content. Problem with when you are passing preseed.cfg file in the syslinux.cfg but vmlinuz.efi kernel do not consider the pressed parameter in for live cd kubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso like below # install label install kernel boot/vmlinuz.efi append auto=true priority=critical hostname=host2OS url=ftp://10.10.10.114/kub14x64-11/OSIM-targets/005056874E9C/preseed.txt initrd=initrd.lz quie [06:42] keithzg: it ignore url specify the preseed.txt but it used to work with 12.04 alternate CD [06:45] nitin_: Hmm. Gotta say it's a bit out of my wheelhouse at that point, and I've gotta run. As aforementioned, you should probably give #ubuntu-server a poke, see what they have to say (although it's a bit of a quiet time of day) [06:53] keithzg: Server image contain netboot image under the CD so no problem for server [06:56] nitin_: ...sure, but the point is to be able to serve an arbitrary installer over PXE. That's entirely within the server/sysadmin wheelhouse. And modifying the netboot image to install kubuntu packages instead of the server packages seems entirely doable. [06:56] keithzg: Server work fine with preseed.cfg. Right now looks Kubuntu Desktop CD image can not be automated for installation by using any auto answer file like preseed.cfg and ks,cfg. any help will be appreciated. Thanks [06:57] nitin_: Yeah, so use the server setup and make a copy of it that uses selections from dpkg-get-selections --installer to set up a kubuntu install rather than a server install. They're really just the same distro anyways, just a different set of default packages and config options, which can all be specified in preseed.cfg [07:02] keithzg: Sure.

Everything works but giving my password in a file. [13:18] pc-data /dev/sda5 /etc/secure/pc-data.password tcrypt,noauto,discard,loud does not work, while pc-data /dev/sda5 none tcrypt,noauto,discard,loud does work. [13:19] ahox: btw how does it make sense to have the password within the file? Doesn't that invalidate the purpose? [13:19] How should the password file look like? [13:19] (never used encryption on linux though) [13:19] RamchandraApte: Not if the password file sits on an encrypted harddisk [13:20] So first you enter in a password and then decrypts one fs and from that the home fs is decrypted? [13:20] pretty much, yes [13:20] the whole system is encrypted with luks [13:22] if all else fails you could merge the two partitions together [13:22] (when reinstalling you can just make the installer install in an existing directory) [13:22] no, I can't - pc-data is an ntfs partition to share data among OS [13:23] ah, I didn't realize seeing ntfs [13:24] Basically, everything seems to work but passing the password. [13:24] dunno about encryption, by a chance this link might be useful: https://www.martineve.com/2012/11/02/luks-encrypting-multiple-partitions-on-debianubuntu-with-a-single-passphrase/ [13:24] (I'm not sure if that guide works with ntfs) [13:25] no, that luks which I can not use with truecrypt. === anavarre_away is now known as anavarre [13:48] Hi, I just found a hacky solution, there seems to be a bug in /lib/cryptsetup/cryptdisks.functions [13:49] specifically, it uses the password as a key-file which does not really match with the man page [13:49] I just changed it to the following, cryptsetup $PLAINPARAMS $PARAMS create "${dst}_unformatted" "$src" || ( [13:49] PARAMS=`echo $PARAMS | sed "s:--key-file=$key::"` [13:49] echo $PARAMS [13:49] cat $key | cryptsetup $PLAINPARAMS $PARAMS create "${dst}_unformatted" "$src" [13:49] ) [13:51] ahox, wouldn't these questions be generally more linux specific than kubuntu, you may get more help at ##linux. [13:51] well, this is kubuntu I am using, I am not sure who actually wrote the scripts [13:52] cryptsetup: Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers [13:53] well,seems to me a larger population of linux users could be more help than the few that are here [13:54] ahox, I'm just trying to help you get help, that's all. [13:55] I start to agree with you ;-) - just not sure if it really is an upstream bug [13:58] ahox, well I sure have no experience with encryption, but I've seen alot those kinds of questions dealt with at the ##linux chat...they aren't OS specific [14:28] What is the current version of Plasma 5 in the repos for Kubuntu? Is it possible to install 5.2 in Kubuntu 14.10 without too much trouble? [14:31] vegaonee: Plasma 5.2 will be backported to 14.10, it should be avaialable through kubuntu-next/ppa [14:33] Nice, thanks. Any guides on how to get it? I'm not used to using backports. And I haven't yet installed Kubuntu. Wanna get 5.2 in a not too messy install. [14:33] I'm just keeping it until 15.04 I think :) [14:38] What do you guys think of this? http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2015/01/upgrade-to-kde-plasma-5-2-kubuntu-14-10/ [14:38] vegaonee: so i suggest to install Kubunti 15.04 [14:38] Does it look reasonable? [14:38] It's just in alpha, so not so sure [14:38] vegaonee: yes this is teh valid way to use it on Utopic [14:39] vegaonee: i have laptop and work machine running this alpha :) [14:39] Thank you soee :) [14:39] and both works nice and smooth [14:39] So you would recommend alpha over 14.10 backports? [14:39] vegaonee: yes [14:39] I want it as stable as possible and with good security updates. [14:40] 5.2 as stable as possible. [14:40] hmm well atm teh backported version might has less bugs i think, as for Utopic there is QT 5.4 already available and not yet for Vivid [14:42] I think I will give the backport option a try :) And if it fails I guess I go back to KDE/Plasma 4. Thanks again! [14:42] np, hf :) [14:43] How does the GTK applications look in Plasma 5.2? [14:43] Oh, God. That link! Now I have to install those backports. [14:43] There is a new theme for taking care of GTK apps in Plasma 5? Or just the old one? [14:43] baloo-kf5 libkf5filemetadata-bin plasma-desktop-data have been kept back. Are the backports ready yet? [14:45] I would like an update on that as well alvin. Maybe we should give it a couple of days. [14:45] Good idea. Patience is a virtue. [14:46] apt also wanted to remove Calibre, and I like to keep that. [14:46] Hmm. Calibre isn't yet ported? [14:46] vegaonee: gtk2 use qtcurve - same as qt apps, gtk3 use oxygen as there is not yet qtcurve for it [14:47] soee: Ahh, does the gtk3 apps look ugly now? [14:48] nope why? and ther is not much gtk3 apps [14:49] Idk, I thought the theming would be that nice yet. But no problem. [14:50] I guess the headerbars for the most popular programs are stripped away because Kubuntu uses the Ubuntu repo :) So that "problem" isn't there I guess. [14:51] So it is just the theming that could be better, with a new gtk3 qtcurve theme. [14:57] hi - anyone know why tune2fs is showing the 'Maximum mount count: ' as -1 ?

But if man:/printf (just an example) shows something other than links to the tar.gz files in Konqueror I would really like to try it. [19:37] bprompt: ok I see, Krunner uses Google Chrome (my default), and CHrome doesn't know what to do with them except download them. So Konqueror wins in that case. [19:38] cjwelborn: you can customize the html-autoformatted file, btw.. it has a .css it uses... and you can customize that..... which is what I"ve done [19:39] like change the headers colors or size, and add indentations or color the

 or bolded text and such

[19:45]  So, how to load plasma5 on gui mode without that (mast say, that on gui loading as root only, "sudo") trubles?
[20:08]  http://www.kubuntu.org/news/plasma-5.2 ta da
[20:36]  Hello!
[20:41]  allo
[20:42]  A human!  Sweet.  Feel like helping me figure out why my linux installations keep bombing?
[20:43]  depends, if I know... I may or may not.. but someone else may know, I run 12.04 kubuntu
[20:44]  Sure.  The problem I have is that grub can't seem to find my linux kernal or the grub folder on /boot.
[20:44]  But if I mount the drive elsewhere, I can see them fine.
[20:45]  boot-repair doesn't fix it 'cause the files ain't missing.  They're just...invisible, I guess?
[20:46]  I never should have bought a computer from ninjas, I guess.
[20:46]  ehheh
[20:47]  MisterVec:     are you booting with uefi support?
[20:47]  No.  I'm booting in legacy mode.
[20:50]  Just get a grub rescue prompt with a message that it can't find normal.mod.  I know the file's there.  I can see it by mounting my HD with the live disk.
[20:50]  But grub can't see.  Or wont.  It might be a conspiracy.
[20:50]  hehe
[20:52]  MisterVec:     tried this -> https://blog.mister-muffin.de/2011/09/12/restoring-grub-from-live-cd/ <-- yet?
[20:52]  Yes.  Several times with different versions of kubuntu.
[20:52]  MisterVec:   basically, a -> sudo grub-install --recheck
[20:53]  Yeah, it works fine.  The recheck verifies it's all installed.  And then I reboot and grub can't see the directory the file is in anymore.
[20:53]  "/boot" is just empty as far as grub is concerned.
[20:54]  hi all, why every time I put the computer in sleep mode the "activity" is always empty?
[20:54]  MisterVec:   how about the 2nd method? with chroot?
[20:55]  Yes.  Again, it works fine.  I can mount the ssd and see the directories and their contents.  I can bind them and chroot to the installation.
[20:56]  But when I try to boot, everything in the boot directory is invisible.
[20:56]  I can insmod normal to load by pointing to the /usr/lib/grub folder, fortunately.
[20:56]  But the kernal and initrd.d file are both in the /boot directory and remain invisible to grub.
[20:57]  Hrmmm...maybe it's a permissions issue.
[21:03]  Baffling.
[22:06]  can anybody using plasma 15.04 tell me if the spellchecking is working for them in kate?
[22:06]  or in any other 5.x apps for that matter
[22:06]  it does work in 4.x apps
[22:07]  *I meat kubuntu 15.04 with plasma 5.2
