kat_KmkHello. I was on here yesterday asking some questions about switching from windows to Ubuntu. I am currently trying to do so. I have downloaded infrarecorder and also used ubuntus website to download the desktop version of ubuntu. I am following step by step as their website instructs. However, I am not sure how to extract the download files to where my files appear as they do as the "ISO image".00:48
kat_KmkI'm not sure in which way to extract the ubuntu files so they are burn ready.00:48
Ben64you burn the iso as an image to a disc00:49
hvsauHu guys00:49
hvsauI have an issue, the desktop icons don't work when I double click them00:49
iqHi00:50
daftykinskat_Kmk: which Windows version?00:50
bazhangkat_Kmk, dont extract, keep the iso intact then burn to dvd or usb stick]00:50
kat_KmkOk. This time I have not extracted the files. So they have are currently in my zip manager as various files. Do I extract them to a folder now00:50
daftykinsno you do not open the ISO at all00:50
kat_Kmki have windows 7 right now./00:50
bazhangkat_Kmk, keep the iso intact00:50
daftykinskat_Kmk: it has a built in ISO writer if you have a writer drive and blank DVDs?00:51
daftykinskat_Kmk: right click -> open with -> image burner or something it'll say00:51
kat_Kmkim sorry, i am not very computer saavy. so how would i add these files from my 7zip folder they are currently in?00:52
bruxCI setup a samba share in /etc/samba/smb.conf. it's sharing a secondary ntfs-3g disk that's currently configured in fstab to automount. I'd like to change the permissions so that everyone on my home network has modify permissions. How would I go about accomplishing this?00:52
beerbuntuHi - new to ubuntu. I have an ubuntu server that's been running stable non-stop for a year.  today it dropped off my network and won't come back after a restart.  what would you recommend I check first?  I'm at a loss.  Nothing out of the ordinary has happened00:52
hcastroDoes anyone know if the steps to create the Ubuntu Vagrant cloud images exist in a repository somewhere?00:52
daftykinskat_Kmk: there is only one file, a .ISO - you downloaded that. do not try and use 7zip on it, do not extract it00:52
bazhangkat_Kmk, first of all just use the iso intact00:52
kat_Kmkokay. i guess with them being mutliple folders it confused me into thinking they were multiple files. Will infrarecorder be what i need to use now? That is the recommend from the ubuntu website00:53
daftykinsbruxC: NTFS volumes can't have permissions, you can try mounting the volume with options that mount it as samba users, or if you have it as guest, with the guest account. this is very messy though00:53
marjinal1stIs there a standart (or convention) for Ubuntu applications' structure? For example I'm developing a basic indicator app, how should I create the package structure? (I mean foldering -> src, data, po etc.)00:53
kat_Kmkok, they appeared to me upon downloading through 7zip. i have not taken any action through that program yet.00:54
daftykinskat_Kmk: infrarecorder can burn to DVDs yes.00:54
bruxCbest practice aside, is it possible to have it at least ask for an user/pw when going into the shared, daftykins ? I currently have it as guest OK with Read writes.00:54
daftykinskat_Kmk: infrarecorder can burn to DVDs yes.00:55
daftykinsoops00:55
bruxCBut I'd like to have the ability to drag/drop files into this shared. If I can add a user/pw all the better, if not then whatever.00:55
daftykinskat_Kmk: like i said, right click on the ISO - open with -> infrarecorder should be listed00:55
OerHekshcastro, https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/vagrant/00:55
daftykinsbruxC: yeah but permissions is completely different, you need to get guest working before you can lock it down, with your example. but a Linux file system would've been far easier00:55
bruxCguest works.00:56
hcastroOerHeks: Thanks, but I'm looking for the streps they used to produce those Vagrant boxes.00:56
bruxCI understand. there are many ways to make many things better. however, I have a direction i would like to take but don't know much about linux.00:56
bruxCso what is needed once guest works?00:57
kat_KmkThere is no Iso Image folder. On the website it appears as a desktop icon after downloading the ubuntu files, one that says "ubuntu". all of my files i downloaded automatically appeared through 7zip. I'm not sure how to proceed.00:57
bazhangkat_Kmk, did you choose open with 7zip when downloading00:57
bekksSet your Explorer options to NOT hide "known extentions", and you will see the full file names.00:58
daftykinsbruxC: you turn off guest and setup users that are allowed to access that share, by creating them and setting an smb password for them. this should all be documented online pretty commonly00:58
daftykins!samba00:58
ubottuSamba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html00:58
bruxCThanks daftykins00:59
bruxCon I go to read.00:59
kat_Kmki didnt think i did. sorry if i did. i dont remember any prompting happening. Im pretty sure i downloaded in web screen, then upon downloading they appeared through a 7zip window. I will try again and watch for any prompts this time as to how i want to open them.00:59
daftykinsNTFS shared will give you nothing but hassle though :)00:59
bazhangkat_Kmk, choose simply save to disk next time you download iso00:59
bruxC Already down the rabbit hole.00:59
OerHekshcastro, lookin at launchpad, gives me more than one vagrant project https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vagrant01:00
kat_Kmkok i will delete and try again. thank you.01:00
daftykinskat_Kmk: more to the point, you do have blank DVDs yes? and a DVD writer drive?01:00
kat_Kmkyes.01:01
kat_Kmkim just going to uninstall 7zip just in case for now.01:07
daftykinsthere's no need for that01:07
daftykinsjust go to http:/releases.ubuntu.com/ and download the ISO01:08
daftykinsi'd recommend 14.04.101:08
kat_Kmki really dont think it asked me how to open it, and its just defaulting to opening it through 7zip. but if thats not possible than i guess it wasnt necessary.01:08
daftykinsyou just need to follow my advice and not double click on it01:09
daftykinsit sounds like the wrong default program is associated with .ISOs01:09
kat_Kmkok ty01:09
daftykinsso once it downloads, as in you've selected to save to disk, not open...01:09
daftykinsyou right click on the ISO -> open with -> <program>01:09
NickmaneCan anyone tell me the best way to use a dedicated server running ubuntu as a remote desktop i can control from my mac?01:09
kat_Kmkok thank you.01:10
bruxClet's say i have a folder (folderA) that has many subfolders. if I: chmod 777 folderA    will this add the same permissions to the subfolders and files?01:11
EriC^^bruxC: only with chmod -R01:11
bruxCThank you.01:11
daftykinsNickmane: physical box in your home?01:12
daftykinsit's NTFS, you can't set permissions (:01:12
Nickmanedaftykins: no. with oh hosting01:12
Nickmaneovh*01:12
daftykinsNickmane: putting a GUI on a server is a mistake01:12
Nickmanemaybe but what's the best way?01:12
daftykinsit's command line learning time!01:12
daftykinssorry not touching that one, it's wrong01:13
Nickmaneyou're an idiot. why withhold info because it's not something you would do?01:13
daftykinsah personal insults, an excellent way to request advice01:14

Nickmaneyeahbabe: read what she posted. tell me i'm wrong01:14
nii236|irssiYo is this the place to ask for Compiz support01:15
yeahbabeNickmane: even so she's entitled to her opinion and she is voluntering dont forget01:15
r_awaitNickmane - ssh command line, but if you need a desktop try Nomachine (ssh X )01:15
Nickmaneif someone wants to use 2 monitors, and i can help them. i'm not going to say i won't help because i don't personally use two monitors. only an idiot would say such things01:15
daftykinsthe difference with your example is that there are no security risks with two displays01:16
k1l_Nickmane: no need to insult and no need to make a drama now. stick to technical support or leave the channel. thanks01:16
Nickmanedaftykins: but aren't these my security risks?01:16
bruxCnot to butt in but who is to say that security is a concern for someone?01:16
Nickmaneexactly01:16
bruxCto say security is a good enough reason to withold information isn't adequate reason in my opinion. After all, what are homelabs anyway if not to learn?01:17
daftykinsit's a hosted system online, the security of everyone online is the responsibility of else using the internet01:17
bruxCany ways, that is just my .02. Carry on.01:17
yeahbabeNickmane: she doesn't agree with your approach, doesn't want to help with somehing she doesn't agree with. no need to insult her01:17
daftykinss/else/everyone/01:17
Nickmaneokay well can anyone willing to help give me some advice? is vnc fluxbox the best way to go? or are there newer/better ways01:18
r_awaitNickmane: use nomachine to remote control your servers01:18
k1l_guys, here are volunteers helping others, so we cant force someone to help if one doesnt want to. so since Nickmane got some solutions now lets drop the drama and focus on technical support again. thanks01:18

hourbackHi, all.  Here's my question on superuser.com:  http://superuser.com/questions/870837/how-do-i-get-grub2-to-boot-to-cloned-windows-8-disk01:23
hourbackAnyone able to help me?  I can't get Ubuntu/GRUB2 to boot to my cloned Windows partition.01:24
hourbackI'm sort of running out of time for this.  :-)  I need to decide whether it's worth it to spend any more time on this or just do a fresh install of Windows.01:24
Ben64maybe ask in ##windows if that is a valid way to move an install01:24
daftykinshourback: Windows installs are on multiple partitions, so you're attempting to bypass the Windows bootloader right there, it's not going to work01:24
bazhang!grub | hourback have a read01:25
ubottuhourback have a read: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub201:25
hourbackBen64: Good idea.  I hope they don't bounce me back here with scorn.  :-)01:26
hourbackdaftykins: It looked like grub's "drivemap" and "chainloader" are for that purpose specifically.01:27

kat_Kmkwhich do i do?01:31

kat_Kmkit is under downloads now, should i drag the folder to my desktop or is it fine to proceed from that point. sorry, i know these are prob basic ass questions01:34
kat_Kmkor do i right click as is and open with my infrarecorder01:35

crazyhead42Have I overcomplicated your night?06:12
milambercrazyhead42: not really, but again your use case isn't specific. looking at your pastebin it seems like you want to do this at the command line: echo "whateveryouwant" > filename.txt06:13
milambercrazyhead42: if you want to see what commands you have typed, they are stored in a file already, it is named: .bash_history06:14
crazyhead42Will that create the text file, or do I need to make the text file exist?06:14
crazyhead42And I'd question the history move because of having five (I had six earlier) terminals up06:15
milambercrazyhead42: that will create the text file. and if you need to record everything that happens with inputs/outputs, script is what you want06:15

milambercrazyhead42: it is instance specific, you have to start it by typing: script <filetorecordto>06:20
milambercrazyhead42: then you do what you need to record, then type exit and it will write everything to <filetorecordto>06:20

milamberAgrajag-: can you post the log? and which version of ubuntu?06:42

mgedminmun, wow, there are a bunch of different headers all named socket.h in ubuntu: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=socket.h&mode=exactfilename&suite=trusty&arch=any07:51

DocPlatypusjust upgraded to 14.04 not too long ago. on every login I have to do a "pkill indicator" to get all of my notification icons to show up properly (tomboy and solaar at least, and for a while even my network connection icon). how to fix this permanently so I don't have to do this workaround?07:52
munbut it  has another line #include "socket.h"07:52
mgedminmun, it needs libowfat-dev07:52
DocPlatypusthis is a Gnome Flashback session, btw... the only one I can stand07:52
mgedminmun, the page I linked has this: /usr/include/socket.hlibowfat-dev07:52
Stanley00mahdi_ja: is there any special need? You can choose package version to install in Ubuntu, if you're lucky, 6.3 is still in repos, but sadly I don't know how to do that actually, using synaptic can make it easier, let me check if 6.3 is in repo first07:52
mgedminmun, and https://erdgeist.org/arts/software/opentracker/ mentions libowfat07:52

cultavixgood morning guys, anyone else having problems with multiple monitors and ubuntu 14.04 ?08:08
cultavixBoth of my displays are being detected as one and mirroring them08:08
DocPlatypuscultavix: sort of. this "nettop" has some kind of phantom LVDS1 display, i.e. it thinks it is a laptop08:08
Stanley00cultavix: hmm... change it in Display setting then :308:08
DocPlatypusI had to disable that with a kernel switch, and since then no problems08:08

cultavixbut it's displaying the exact same thing on both screens08:10
cultavixDocPlatypus, which kernel switch?08:10
theadmincultavix: Are you using proprietary drivers? The proprietary NVidia drivers were giving me a similar issue with multiple screens, whereas the open-source ones seemed to have no problem.08:11

cultavixit's a dell ultrabook, e744008:16

theadmingenericum: They are probably pulled in by some metapackage you have installed.10:17
theadmingenericum: Probably ubuntu-desktop or somesuch. Remove that and they should stop being pulled in10:18
genericumtheadmin: i tried using dselect10:18
theadminI dunno what that is10:18
genericumbut so many (unneeded) dependencies10:18
usuariohi10:18
genericumhow can i alter them ?10:19
theadmingenericum: Just remove ubuntu-desktop (or xubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop or whatever derivative you may be using), or whatever package pulled them in10:20
genericumtheadmin: i want to kick out more than that ..10:21
genericumtheadmin: for example i'd wanna use qt5 but so many packets rely on qt410:21
theadmingenericum: Yes, but they need Qt 4 to run because they are made with Qt410:22
theadminThey won't be able to run with Qt5 unless recompiled properly (and rewritten because there's some difference in how headers work)10:22
theadminSo, you need qt4 if you want to use them10:22
genericumtheadmin: isnt't there a qt-5 ready desktop ?10:22
theadmingenericum: I have no idea.10:23
theadminKDE is the most popular Qt environment10:23
theadminBut I'm not sure which version of Qt they use10:23
genericumtheadmin: but tell me how do i alter the dependencies ?10:23
genericumtheadmin: in case you know ?10:23
genericumtheadmin: http://dpaste.com/0DGNFGZ is another problem10:24
theadmingenericum: The approach I use is the "equivs" tool. It allows to create your own packages easily. Usually packages created by equivs are empty. So you just create your own package for the dependency you need to satisfy, leave it empty and it's done10:24
O_OniGiriHi there, I know that this is an ubuntu channel but I am just wondering... How can I make the window resize margin bigger? I mean... when I hover with my mouse over the edge of the windows, I have to be really accurate to resize the window. Is there a way to make this margin bigger?10:25
genericumtheadmin: will thake a look but i don't wanna edit every *.deb that i use :(10:25
O_OniGiriBtw... I am using xubuntu10:25
theadmingenericum: You are most likely doing something wrong then, and also, if you edit the dependencies of a package it won't magically make the package work without those dependencies10:26
theadminThe only use in altering them is when the dependencies are wrong in the first place10:26
EriC^^O_OniGiri: you can press alt+f8 to resize10:27

bazhanggenericum, vivid, the next release also seems to have the qt5 plasma desktop, two months from now10:30
theadminThree, no? Two would be March10:32
bazhangtwo days til february..10:32
theadminUbuntu releases are usually closer to the end of month I think.10:32
bazhangat any rate, using vivid in x months time, or a PPA would be way preferable to something like "changing the dependency tree"10:33
theadmingenericum: And yes, qt4 packages won't work without qt4 even if you set qt5 as a dependency10:34
theadminSince they are linked against Qt4 libraries. You'd need to rewrite their code for that to work...10:34
genericumtheadmin: backwards compatibility to Heeell10:35
genericumtheadmin: but still there must be a way to alter dependencies !10:35
bazhanggenericum, not in this case10:35
theadmingenericum: equivs is the only way that works with APT sanely.10:35
theadminAnything else is likely to give you a ton of trouble.10:35
bazhangand not something to even consider, honestly10:36
genericumive tried /etc/apt/preferences10:36
theadmingenericum: Well, you can "hold" packages in APT yes, but that will make those packages that depend on the ones you held impossible to install...10:36
genericumthing is with dbus problems .. i feel like removing quite a lot and then reinstall10:37
genericumbut10:37

Kenjiroguys, I am having an annoying problem trying to upgrade an Ubuntu server from 12.04 to 14.04. Yesterday I upgrade one server from 11.10 to 13.10, then to 14.04 without problems. But then this one (12.04) won't work.11:58
KenjiroI get the following message everytime I try: http://pastebin.com/mTFnxzAz11:58
Blejdfistlinux_gamer: I didn't install anything for this to happen, it was like this from the start11:59
cfhowlett_Kenjiro, software setting > update manager > advise of LTS release only11:59
Blejdfistlinux_gamer: I have an Intel HD graphics card, and my guess is that there is a bug in the kernel intel framebuffer driver since this happens before X even starts11:59
EriC^^ArshiaAghaei: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9935628/12:00
Kenjirofirst I had "http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/" in sources.list. Then I read it could be something a mirror not up to date. So I changed sources.list to get the closest mirror. It does... but I get the same error :(12:00
Kenjirocfhowlett_: it is an Ubuntu Server, so no Xorg running12:00
Kenjirobut yes, my /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades has "Prompt=lts"12:01
linux_gamerBlejdfist, ok my intel seems to be working good wih the old kernel, so it is another problem, you can try to install nvidia-driver if card and circumvent ntel issues12:02
Blejdfisti don't have an nvidia card12:02
linux_gamerati or no dedicated?12:03
Blejdfistnope12:03
linux_gamermh maybe you reinstall with updates on maybe that bug was fixed in the time12:04

cageyou guy's know if libre calc comments show up in excel?12:22
hateballcage: Would depend on filetype and versions and so on. #libreoffice might know more12:25
leeyaahello12:25
leeyaacould you suggest how to easily check if there are packages that need to be updated (security related) and print the number ?12:25
theadmincage: Yes. Excel now supports the OpenDocument format that LibreOffice uses completely. And if you save as .xls/.xlsx, even older versions of Excel will be able to read the file.12:25
theadminComments are a fairly basic feature so it should be well-supported even in alien filetypes.12:25
theadmincage: If you want, make a file in LibreOffice Calc with a comment, and then transfer it to me (if your IRC client supports file transfer, or use some file hosting service and PM me the link)12:26

theadmincage: True enough, it's sad. I find that saving as .docx helps though.12:30

theadmincage: Depends on which web office you mean, but all web office suites are currently... well... to use an appropriate word, bad.12:33
cageword online is the real name I guess12:33

DJonesleeyaa: Possibly, but as they're end of life and no longer supported, fixes wouldn't be released anyway.  If anybody was using those releases, they should upgrade as soon as possible because there would be countless other security fixes that won't have been fixed for end of life releases13:28
leeyaaDJones: they are pretty basic servers (web, db, pptpd etc). running for years now and we dont plan to upgrade them for now. is it possible to check if they are affected? i mean i know glibc can be affected but what are the services affected by this except maybe dns servers ?13:30

mgedminestimate business risk and potential loss, then talk to the people who're not allowing you to upgrade13:36
KingOfOOPsanthosh: At the time i installed UBuntu13:36
leeyaamgedmin: it is complicated. 90% of the services are on 14.04 and we have some old ones that we dont want to upgrade, because clients dont want to upgrade to new version of the product (which cant run on any other OS except ubuntu 6)13:36

beardsirWhen I type a command in terminal (such as openvpn), the service starts, but the terminal is then unuseful until I break out of that command. How can I stop that from happening?14:06
mgedminbeardsir, you can send the running command to the background by pressing ctrl-z (which pauses it), then running 'bg', then running 'disown' (so it own't get killed when you close the terminal window)14:07
mgedminyou can skip the first two steps if you append an & after the command when you run it, e.g. openvpn &14:07

KlausedSourcejatt, yes for my keyboard it does. but not for the harddrives(tried 2 different vendors)14:40
TJ-KlausedSource: check "/var/log/dmesg", look especially at PCI device allocations, to ensure the host's USB controller(s) have been correctly found14:40
Picilnb: zsh has a lot of advanced completion stuff, you may want to look into using that?14:40
lnbit says: Commands  and  variables  can  be  completed  in  much  the same way.  For example, typing14:41

KlausedSourceTJ-, no it is an usb2 hub, but it has 2 1A ports14:52
TJ-KlausedSource: OK... have you been able to test the device, powered like that, on another system, to prove it will work?14:53

ubottuuser_: 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.15:51

TJ-KlausedSource: I think I've identified why the USB3 OTG port isn't working - the low-level kernel driver (below the controller) needs to be OTG-aware, and know how to 'talk' to the specific OTG hardware in the A80. Without it, the host controller will see the port but no interrupts will be generated. Sounds like your situation.16:08

mahdi_jamilamber, i want compile clips 3.617:09
mr_snowf1akehey guys, i'm wondering about the issues around the license of ppa packages. am i legally allowed to distribute a .deb on a public ppa along with the .deb packages for our product? or do we have to have some script to add the ppa repositories and install instead?17:10
mahdi_jamilamber, http://pastebin.com/VN72m0xa17:10
milambermahdi_ja: that is actually a different error, it it now looking for Command.h - i am not familiar with this clips package, but typically they will list somewhere a set of libraries needed to compile, you have to make sure you have them all.17:11
mahdi_jamilamber, ok,thanks for your attention17:12
milambermahdi_ja: using that apt-file search command i gave you earlier, that header is located in libxaw7-dev17:13
milambermahdi_ja: so do: sudo apt-get install libxaw7-dev17:13
est31TJ:  anyway thanks for help17:13
Caleb--here goes... let's see what xorg-edgers does :)17:13
milamberByrin: did you try the official way? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades17:14
Byrinmilamber yes, And I noted my errors in the pastebin17:14
aarobcyay! work is getting me a system76 machine!17:16
milamberByrin: looked at the pastebin, it seems like you manually edited your sources.list, got 404 errors, then tried the cd and made no mention of it being the alternate cd17:16
zaggynlanyone else currently unable to login to Skype?17:17
milamberKingOfOOP: can you pastebin the result of sudo apt-get update17:17
zaggynl"Skype can't connect"17:17
KingOfOOPmilamber: Ok.17:18
milamberzaggynl: just tried it and got the same error, in the US17:20
zaggynlthanks, good to know I'm not the only one milamber17:20
mahdi_jamilamber, ok problem is solved .thank you very much17:20
milambermahdi_ja: no problem17:20
zaggynlit does appear to be working on my phone though17:21
Byrinmilamber, I am not exactly sure what you are saying, but I downloaded the ISO from the address they provided on the LucidUpgrades page17:21
milamberByrin: did you try the network upgrade?17:22
KingOfOOPmilamber: http://pastebin.com/ULVHewNv17:22
=== owner_ is now known as Guest28059
Byrinmilamber: i did try that, but System/Administration/Software Sources does not exist for me17:24
milamberByrin: maybe I am misunderstanding what you are trying to do. are you trying to upgrade a desktop install or a server?17:25
KingOfOOPmilamber: Did you see the result ??!!17:26
Caleb--BluesKaj, the upgrade didn't kill my computer.. yet. unity feels more responsive now, but that may be because i've just restarted.17:26
Byrinmilamber: I am trying to upgrade from 8.04 server to any currently supported ubuntu server distro17:26
milamberByrin: so you tried sudo apt-get update-manager-core>'17:27
milamber?*17:27
esdeouch 8.0417:27
Byrinmilamber: yes, but apt-get anything is not working since the repositories are out of date17:28
BluesKajCaleb--, well, I don't run unity since I'm a kde guy and it runs fine on my laptop with the i915 driver with kubuntu 14.1017:28
Byrinesde: yes ouch. school project though so not production xD17:28
esdeso backup and restore. but some stuff might need to be changed since that 8.04 distro is so stale17:29
milamberKingOfOOP: try this: http://pastebin.com/p07krcSg17:29
trick2gusing ubuntu, how do i make files set to 0773 (rwxrwx-wx) not readable by a web server?17:30

Caleb--BluesKaj, i see. btw, do you have issues with full-screen video (html5) in chrome? it hangs the whole process for me (with the old driver it forced me to restart lightdm, but now i simply killed chrome)17:30
trick2gesde: ?17:31
milamberByrin: that is probably going to be the best option. any reason a backup/restore is not an option?17:31
esdetrick2g, change the permissions17:31

pragmaticenigmaByrin, you wwwwwwwould be best to back up everything on that server and install a fresh copy of Ubuntu server. there are too many differences between the two and you may end up with conflicting libraries17:33
ElysiumNetNODATA? sounds like something screwy on google's side17:33
ElysiumNetKingOfOOP: does the computer happen to be behind a proxy or is it NATted?17:34
ByrinSo basically, we were given this machine in my computer security class, and we need to secure it. The method he gave us for updating was the pages I linked but they do not work. I am not completely sure I would be allowed to backup and restore a new machine17:34
=== zz_saschpe is now known as saschpe
KingOfOOPElysiumNet: No.17:34
esdeByrin, there is no securing 8.04 :P17:34
esdeshort of locking it in a vault, in a pwoered down state :)17:35
ElysiumNetKingOfOOP: absolutely sure it's not a shared IP?17:35
Byrinesde: hence trying to do a distro update. xD17:35
pragmaticenigmaByrin, best way to secure that would be to unplug it and throw away the power cord ;-)17:35
ByrinYeah I know. But alas, this is what I must do. I am almost positive he did it on purpose to give us a hard time.17:35
ElysiumNetassuming it's about the GPG error, just saw that url17:35
esdeByrin, you're either very dense or poor at reading comprehension.An upgrade is not a good idea, at all17:35
=== mEck0_ is now known as mEck0
esdeor your instructor is an idiot.17:36
milamberKingOfOOP: do you have chrome/chromium?17:36
Byrinesde: please do not insult me. This is what I was told to do, regardless of the facts. If this was a real scenario I would simply start from scratch.17:36
pragmaticenigmaByrin, since this is for a class, I would suggest asking for help from the teacher, TAs or fellow classmates. They're going to be a much better resource to your assignment17:36
KingOfOOPmilamber: Yes , Google Chrome17:36
esdeByrin, good luck! (but it won't work :) )17:37

Manikantaexit17:40
milamberKingOfOOP: wget -q -O - http://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -17:40
ElysiumNetKingOfOOP: the reason why I ask is because you might not be aware of a proxy or that it is being NATted. hence google denying you to connect to it since it tends to blacklist abusers17:41
ElysiumNetmilamber's wget should prove that17:41
=== mEck0_ is now known as mEck0
ElysiumNetmilamber: wouldn't it be better to check if it's actually responding in the first place?17:41
ElysiumNetrather than immediately try to add it as a key17:41
milamberElysiumNet: i thought if it wasn't responding it wouldn't indicate a gpg error17:42
ElysiumNetmilamber: better be safe than sorry, but I thought the | would pipe, at best an error from apt-key17:42
ElysiumNetunfortunately I've always been getting the worst case scenario with these things17:43
milamberElysiumNet: truth17:43
milamberKingOfOOP: try just the wget part, without the | or anything after it, if that works then do the sudo apt-key add17:43
Caleb--where can i find great high-quality wallpapers?17:44
ElysiumNetand check the contents of linux_signing_key.pub that's then on the filesystem17:44
KingOfOOPmilamber: The result of apt-key add :17:44

ElysiumNetKingOfOOP: you're behind a proxy17:46
ElysiumNetor NATted/shared IP17:46
KingOfOOPElysiumNet: How to get rid of that ?17:46
TJ-KingOfOOP: Try to fetch the Release file manually; "wget -O - http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release"17:46
KingOfOOPTJ-: What exactly it will do ?17:47
TJ-KingOfOOP: Prove if you can get the file from Google: see http://paste.ubuntu.com/9940650/17:48
ElysiumNetTJ-: I want to know if he can even ping dl.google.com in the first place, since I have a suspicion his IP is blacklisted17:48
ElysiumNetor the proxy is blacklisting dl.google.com17:48
TJ-KingOfOOP: It's possible that some transparent proxy in your country is intercepting the request and blocking it - hance the NODATA response17:48
KingOfOOPTJ-: I see : http://pastebin.com/gVZBGb0Q17:49
KingOfOOPTJ-: What is that mean ??17:50
TJ-KingOfOOP: That looks correct, so you can reach it. So now you know the issue is with apt/gpg during the update command17:50
ElysiumNetand what does http://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub return?17:51
KingOfOOPElysiumNet: Are you asking me ?17:53
ElysiumNethm, this is odd...17:53
KingOfOOPElysiumNet: "<ElysiumNet> and what does http://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub return?"17:53
* ElysiumNet kicks google17:53
ElysiumNetKingOfOOP: yes17:53
ElysiumNetI just tried it on my server, I am getting the exact same issue17:53
TJ-KingOfOOP: The "NODATA" usually happens due to a badly configured transparent proxy, that intercepts requests and instead of returning a status code of 404 (Page Not Found) returns a 200 (OK) but might send a document reporting a 404 error17:54
TJ-ElysiumNet: For which URI? I tested the URIs also and get the correct responses17:54
KingOfOOPElysiumNet: Let me show it.17:54
ElysiumNetTJ-: this might actually be google's fault in this case. my US server connects to the same exact IP's and just times out17:54

ElysiumNetKingOfOOP: updating?18:04
ElysiumNetor any of the above wgets really18:05

stevenjcit said " no such file or directory"18:13
milamberRagingBuddha: it seems that guide has not been updated . . . in a while. you also have to see what filesystem the laptop is using and whether or not it is using uefi. those things complicate the matter18:13
ElysiumNetstevenjc: you need to execute that in the directory where the "configure" file resides18:13

mtienhello, i need help installing a wifi pci card driver on ubuntu. already downloaded the driver but don't know how to proceed from there.19:19
ax562ok so package depended on gnomeservice center.  So it wouldnt install without it.  So i did sudo apt-get install gnome-service center.  gnome-service-center installed then my gui went bonkers so I restarted.  After restart, I do not have gui anymore just a "user:" "password:" prompt, then it goes into terminal.19:20
k1lax562: what ubuntu is it exactly?19:20
daftykinsmtien: best way to start is to paste us the single line from 'lspci' that refers to what chipset the device is19:21
ax562ubuntu 12.04 lts 64bit19:21
ax562I tried sudo apt-get remove gnome-service-center but nothing changed19:22

daftykinski7rw: well you're referring to the past presumably, not something you're actually working on now, today?19:37
TJ-ax562: Doesn't surprise me. You previously removed the desktop files but whilst in memory they continue working, but installing g.c.c would cause a gui restart and the files has gone by then so it fails19:37
multivany chance that someone here knows how to program and would be willing to help me? >.>19:37
ki7rwgoogle search shows that others have the same issue with the driver but it makes no sense why it worked with the HDD and not on the SSD19:37
ki7rwdaftykins, i'm still trying to find a solution19:38
daftykinski7rw: so are you typing from this SSD install now?19:38
TJ-ki7rw: At which point, specifically, does it fail? During DKMS package build of the nvidia driver, during the kernel insmod at boot, or when the GUI tries to load the drivers?19:38

skritehow do i change my dns server? resolve.conf says what i put there will be overwritten. This is a server, so no network manager20:09
CodmadnessproHi, I've installed google authenticator into ssh but since I've installed and tried to login with normal password it doesn't like it...20:10
Codmadnesspro._,20:10
mtieni ran the update earlier today. i think i might have installed something wonky because when i boot up, i get some kind of system error. possibly some kind of ppa stuff .20:10
mtienactually, i attempted to follow the direction to install the driver but it didn't work.20:11
TJ-skrite: Network Manager can still be used on servers - it doesn't require a GUI (that's the nm-applet part). However, if the system isn't ising NM then the network config will be in "/etc/network/interfaces{.d/*}" and you can set the "dns-nameservers" there20:11
daftykinsmtien: ok you didn't say that earlier, you said you downloaded it and were about to try.20:11
mtiendafty, right.  it appears the ubuntu help forum was a bit dated. i tried their method but it was posted a few years ago.20:12
mtienthen i just went to the manufacturer's website and downloaded stuff directly instead.20:13
daftykinsmtien: alright well yeah, it's tough to know what state the system is in now. since it's fresh, you might as well start over20:13
daftykinsmtien: this time pick 'try' from the boot menu and see if wifi works from the live session20:14
mtienright now, i want to install the driver from scratch.20:14
mtiendafty, if it doesn't?20:14
mtienit seems that the particular pci card is problematic with ubuntu. it's not plug and play. you need to follow up with separate installation.20:15
daftykinspossibly, but you can cross that bridge when you come to it20:15

Jordan_Uj_t: You've been given some options that all seem reasonable to me. 1: Reboot and choose the 3.2 kernel at the grub menu, then uninstall 3.5 (this seems most reasonable to me) 2: Edit GRUB_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub to point to the 3.2 kernel, then run "sudo update-grub", reboot, uninstall 3.5, then change GRUB_DEFAULT again so that you continue getting new kernel updates (clunky, but reasonable) 3: Uninstall the ...21:12
Jordan_U... package for your running kernel and reboot (this should be fine as long as you don't need to load any new kernel modules before rebooting, which you shouldn't). The kernel and all loaded modules are only read from disk once, when they're initally loaded. From then on they just stay in memory.  I can't think of any other reasonable options, so I think you'll just have to choose between those 3.21:12

crazyhead42wait, so I type that into the user with the exampes.desktop?21:53
crazyhead42And I don't think it set up propperly because the directories in my home are not in the other user's home.21:54

Ben64j_t: pastebin errors22:07
TJ-j_t: To identify the actual binary package names, use "apt-cache search --names-only linux-image"22:08
j_tBen64: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/1bb5f40c89a6a4c600bf22:08
Ben64j_t: that gives you the answer right there22:09

j_tBen64: I want to setup puppet to ensure latest on the linux-image. for precise this works fine. for trusty I'm getting this.22:10
j_tBen64: I basically want to stay in the major kernel supported by the distribution, but go to the latest minor version of that kernel.22:10
=== mEck0_ is now known as mEck0
j_tfor precise, apt-get install linux-image accomplishes this I believe22:11
Ben64j_t: you can accomplish that with a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade22:11
j_tBen64: I only want to upgrade linux-image. that will upgrade all kinds of things, java, apache, etc etc. and that could cause problems22:11

j_tbut dist-upgrade upgrades everything22:16
k1lj_t: you just said it22:16
k1lj_t: dist-upgrade is not a 14.04 to 14.10 upgrade22:16
j_tthere are non-security package upgrades as well from dist-upgrade;22:16
j_tyes, I know22:17
k1lbut for a new kernel you need dist-upgrade. since it installs a new kernel package.22:17
Jordan_Uj_t: Bug fixes are not likely to cause regressions, and may prevent you from hitting a bug you just don't know can affect you yet.22:18
Klohello22:18
j_tk1l: no, I can do apt-get install linux-image-generic and that gets me the new kernel. without dist-upgrade.22:19
Ben64j_t: you're solving a problem that doesn't exist, and in the process, likely creating many more22:19

SpNgwhen using start-stop-daemon to daemonize a process the binds to a privledged port and using —chuid, how is start-stop-daemon allowing the process to bind to the privledged port with the user is not a super user?22:20
k1lj_t: we have lots of people in here afraid of updates and they are thinking they can keep their sevices secure themselves. but in reality they cant. ubuntu (and other distros) got a whole security team working on that fulltime. why not use that service?22:21
djmitcheI think I have a bug in apt, but I want to look with gdb first.  So, I need debug symbols.  But there's no 'apt-dbg' package.  How can I get debug symbols?22:22
k1lj_t: but enough of that from my side. its your decision. i am just saying ubuntu got a working solution already for that22:22
TJ-j_t: To restrict an upgrade to security, you can for example do "apt-get --target-release trusty-security dist-upgrade"22:22
TJ-j_t: comparing the --target-release with a regular dist-upgrade, I see the regular upgrade suggests more packages22:23
