[00:04] <aeon-ltd> lubuntu is supported here, but does lubuntu development run perfectly in sync with ubuntu? so when core changes are made to ubuntu, the changes are then applied to lubuntu?
[00:05] <Bambi24>  Never Pay for Porn ever again. Click Here! http://bit.ly/1y2SGSo
[00:05] <k1l_> aeon-ltd: tehy share the same package base.
[00:06] <aeon-ltd> k1l_: ok so the base, all updates are pulled from the same servers as ubuntu stock?
[00:06] <k1l_> aeon-ltd: yes. its just that the lubuntu team cares about the lubunut related packages. but they are on the ubuntu servers, too
[00:07] <k1l_> aeon-ltd: install lubuntu-desktop on a ubuntu and you get a lubuntu
[00:07] <aeon-ltd> k1l_: thank you for answering, it has been very helpful
[00:11] <jshanab_> I just installed lubuntu on a Zotac zbox 1750 but I am having boot issues. I have to go into the bios and set to UEFI, let it fail then set back to legacy then save and reboot to get it to start up. Really crazy. It comes up to a black screen with flashing underscore. Are there some drivers I need? It is the zotac, a samsung SSD and it has an Intel iris pro 5200
[00:15] <C0n510u5n355> hello
[00:16] <ingsantiago> any tips on a good irc client for ubuntu?
[00:16] <k1l_> hexchat
[00:17] <k1l_> or the classic: irssi for cli
[00:17] <jshanab_> Funny. I always come back to chatzilla
[00:18] <ingsantiago> thanks
[00:18] <C0n510u5n355> I find xchat is good.
[00:18] <k1l_> hexchat is the new xchat
[00:18] <Bashing-om> ingsantiago: irssi : http://www.andrews-corner.org/ubuntu/irssi.html <- getting started .
[00:19] <jshanab_> xchat looks just like chatzilla, except it locks the input window to exactly 1 line.
[00:20] <C0n510u5n355> Has anyone here found a way to get iTunes working on Wine? Last time I checked ( I admit it has been awhile) the iTunes that could be used was version 7. Are any of the newer versions supported?
[00:24] <cromagi> this is really starting to tick me off will someone give me a solution PLEASEE
[00:25] <j_t> https://gist.github.com/anonymous/b5c6aabab819b66d5e96 .. any reason when I try to apt-get remove a few kernels, that it asks me to _install_ a new kernel?
[00:26] <cromagi> bye bye ubuntu
[00:27] <cromagi> Cant even use wireless adapters on desktops
[00:27] <cromagi> Tsk Tsk Tsk
[00:27] <j_t> cromagi: bye!
[00:27] <k1l_> j_t: because you marked the quantal backports kernel to be installed somewhere
[00:27] <Jordan_U> cromagi: You have to explain your problem before anyone can give you a solution, and also remember three things: 1: It's possible that nobody in the channel knows how to help you and 2: You are not entitled to free support, we are volunteers. 3: We don't care if you decide not to use Ubuntu. Use what makes you happy.
[00:28] <cromagi> i explained it two hours ago and have been waiting ever since
[00:28] <cromagi> And cant find anything on google
[00:28] <k1l_> j_t: The following extra packages will be installed: linux-image-3.5.0-54-generic linux-image-generic-lts-quantal      << that
[00:29] <k1l_> j_t: remove that lts quantal backports meta package you installed. that carries the 3.5 kernels
[00:30] <Jordan_U> cromagi: Many people that are currently in the channel weren't here two hours ago. Please try explaining your problem in detail again.

[00:40] <EriC^> holy bots
[00:40] <EriC^> O.o
[00:42] <maximedev> Hi guys
[00:42] <maximedev> I'm using a proxy with apt
[00:42] <maximedev> Acquire::http::Proxy "http://apt.mycompany.com:3142";
[00:42] <maximedev> this is what I have in my apt.conf
[00:42] <EriC^> !ops | Leelahs_Corpse keeps asking me to do his mom in PM
[00:43] <maximedev> the thing is that I can't apt-get https apt sources
[00:43] <maximedev> I get a 403 forbidden
[00:43] <maximedev> if I remove my proxy, it works great
[00:44] <TJ-> maximedev: You possibly need "Acquire::https::Proxy" too
[00:45] <TJ-> maximedev: see "man apt.conf" and the "http/https" sub-sections
[00:45] <maximedev> Acquire::https::Proxy "http://apt.mycompany.com:3142"; ?
[00:45] <maximedev> I did check before coming here :)
[00:45] <k1l_> EriC^: if it doesnt stop you might want to report to #freenode staff, too.
[00:46] <EriC^> k1l_: ty :)
[00:46] <maximedev> I just tried Acquire::https::Proxy "http://apt.mycompany.com:3142";  and it doesn't work either
[00:46] <VicKeller> Hey I fucked up my operating system really badly and am at the mercy of anyone who can help
[00:46] <TJ-> maximedev: So the proxy doesn't support HTTPS
[00:47] <maximedev> I'm using apt-cacher
[00:47] <maximedev> for caching apt packages
[00:47] <TJ-> maximedev: Are you trying to install a paid-for ubuntu 'app' ?
[00:47] <maximedev> I'm trying to install docker :)
[00:48] <TJ-> maximedev: I use apt-cacher-ng without issues for https. You need to check on where the 403 originates - the proxy requiring authentication, or pass-through from the destination
[00:48] <maximedev> I'll check that
[00:48] <Jordan_U> VicKeller: Please explain your exact situation in detail, and without swearing.
[00:48] <maximedev> thanks :)
[00:50] <Corvette> Using lm-sensors, what is the risk of writing to I2C/SMBus?
[00:50] <Corvette> What can break as a result?
[00:51] <TJ-> Corvette: You could confuse some device on a bus, but it's very rare
[00:51] <Corvette> TJ would it be permanent damage?
[00:56] <TJ-> Corvette: I'd very much doubt it!
[00:59] <Corvette> TJ it found some kind of IO chip sensor but I have to add it to /etc/modules myself and I'm not really sure for what benefit. Probably nothing that I need to monitor
[01:05] <daftykins> VicKeller: are you actually going to explain your problem, then? :)
[01:06] <pantato> does anybody offhand have a complete list of the cards supported by atis proprietary drivers?
[01:06] <daftykins> well, what is your card?
[01:06] <pantato> rv730 hd 4650
[01:07] <daftykins> i can tell you that the HD 4000 generation and below are unsupported
[01:07] <daftykins> yeah, so you can't use it
[01:07] <pantato> :(
[01:07] <daftykins> best to stay on radeon
[01:07] <pantato> is there software i can get to atleast fix the overscan on my tv? xrandr isnt working
[01:07] <VicKeller> My exact situation: Installed synaptic process manager which caused some sort of update error. Against my better judgement given my concern over the update error i proceeded to delete cached package files and residual config uninstalled packages. I then typed " rm -f ~/.cache/thumbnails/normal/*" into the command promt terminal which i was led to believe would clear the thumbnail cache. l then installed dcomf-tools and opened d
[01:08] <daftykins> pantato: if you look really carefully it's likely a TV settings option
[01:08] <VicKeller> Now other than the grub and the ubuntu safe mode menu nothing will work
[01:08] <pantato> ok ill try that. tv is pretty old though
[01:08] <daftykins> VicKeller: you were cut off at "dconf-tools and opened d..."
[01:09] <VicKeller> Darn it
[01:09] <daftykins> so basically you're saying the GUI doesn't work?
[01:09] <VicKeller> I installed dcomf tools
[01:09] <VicKeller> Opened dcomf-editor
[01:09] <daftykins> dconf.
[01:10] <daftykins> N.
[01:10] <VicKeller> Tried to use dcomf-editor to edit thumbnail cache settings
[01:10] <VicKeller> Sorry dconf i am typing on my phone
[01:10] <daftykins> so you can't log into a working GUI, is that it?
[01:11] <VicKeller> Yep
[01:11] <daftykins> standard ubuntu with unity?
[01:11] <Loshki> Corvette: fwiw, I've run lm-sensors on every mobo I've ever owned, and never had a problem. The chip sensor presumably supplies one or more of the readings to the "sensor" command, so at worst you'll miss some readings.
[01:11] <VicKeller> Yes
[01:11] <daftykins> VicKeller: does a guest session work?
[01:12] <VicKeller> Not sure im just stuck in a grub menu
[01:12] <celexi> vickeller have you tried booting in text mode, adding a user or enabling guest mode ?
[01:12] <daftykins> VicKeller: can you not boot normally, then hit ctrl+alt+F1 to get a console session?
[01:13] <celexi> or that if it works
[01:13] <daftykins> VicKeller: a pic of what happens when you boot up normally would be good
[01:14] <VicKeller> Daftykins hold up a second
[01:14] <sireebob> I think I need a fresh perspective on where to start in figuring this out. Ubuntu 14.04: mysql has been crashing about once a day. I have no idea how to even figure out *why*...
[01:15] <TJ-> sireebob: You've looked at the logs in "/var/log/mysql/" ?
[01:16] <jshanab> sireebob. Start with the logs. Then try vmstat to a file or munin to make sure you are not runing out of memory or hitting the Offending app killer???
[01:18] <_-leo-_> dendsd
[01:19] <sireebob> ty, ty... okay, so there are /var/log/mysql/error.log files but i am not seeing anything around the time of crash *except* when the service first re-starts
[01:19] <daftykins> /var/log/messages or dmesg for kernel stuff, for if it's killing it due to memory usage etc
[01:20] <sireebob> that's odd... messages is empty and syslog is almost empty... i wonder if i broke rsyslog
[01:21] <heipa> hey people who here managed to install QQ on ubuntu?
[01:21] <heipa> it gives some error and thats it
[01:21] <daftykins> never heard of it
[01:22] <celexi> heipa qq the messenger?
[01:22] <sireebob>  r  b   swpd   free   buff  cache   si   so    bi    bo   in   cs us sy id wa st
[01:22] <sireebob>  3  0      0   1034    326   2175    0    0   744   167   59   23  3  2 92  3  0
[01:22] <heipa> celexi: yes
[01:22] <heipa> their beta version
[01:23] <celexi> if so i guess you are trying to install it via wine heipa, use the qq plugin for pidgin
[01:23] <heipa> celexi: they got direct beta for linux
[01:23] <heipa> 0 wine
[01:23] <heipa> ooo they got qq in pidgin
[01:23] <heipa> wow
[01:25] <spy_> what's the meaning of childsession?i don't understand it. session1 has a non-sessionleader process1 to create session2,could we call session2 as a childsession of seesion1
[01:25] <ZDM-> I'm installing ubuntu right now (Minimal 14.10) - the installer is asking me to choose my primary network interface and giving me the option to choose my gigabit ethernet or wireless. Does it really matter which one I choose? If I go with ethernet I can still use wireless later if I choose to do so right?
[01:26] <sireebob> my /var/log/syslog has only *two* entries in the past 11 hours. i don't know what to think of that. i *did* isolate cron messages to /var/log/cron.log though.
[01:26] <sireebob> and messages is empty, so there's nothing about low-memory killing of mysql there.
[01:26] <TJ-> sireebob: But what about the mysql logs themselves?
[01:27] <sireebob> TJ-: nothing. their only entries are when mysql starts.
[01:27] <somsip> sireebob: just an idea - /var/log isn't full is it?
[01:27] <sireebob> i think that's a var-y good idea (sorry, kill me), but no
[01:27] <daftykins> ZDM-: i wouldn't worry
[01:27] <somsip> sireebob: k - just came in halfway through the conversation so worth a try :)
[01:27] <ZDM-> ok
[01:27] <sireebob> i do appreciate it
[01:28] <sireebob> TJ-: i did turn on the 'regular' mysql log yesterday... and it's got a ton of stuff in it. i did a timestamp grep with no results but let me look more carefully
[01:28] <mulga> would someone take a look of thus cli dump and help me with this duplicate packages warning in getting after editing /etc/apt/sources.list - i only added a single extra source, so i puzzled why dupes would appear all of a sudden. paste   vv
[01:28] <mulga> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9946468/
[01:28] <mulga> *thus=this
[01:29] <sireebob> looking more closely, even the events leading *up* to mysql's crash are ~9 minutes before it happened.
[01:30] <qwe123ee> Hey, I'm having issues with my video card and I could use any help I can get. It's a Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller, and I've installed the latest intel driver. The color is messed up unless I  use nomodeset to boot, which disables the driver.
[01:30] <sireebob> my cron script checks every minute. and yeah, upstart is configured to respawn it, but that's not good enough apparently.
[01:30] <daftykins> qwe123ee: were you in here recently with this?
[01:30] <qwe123ee> no this is my first time on here, I'm new to linux
[01:31] <mulga> actually its giving me :~$ W: GPG error: http://deb.torproject.org trusty InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 74A941BA219EC810 and then spitting out duplicate entries
[01:31] <daftykins> qwe123ee: ok, ubuntu version?
[01:31] <qwe123ee> 14.04
[01:32] <TJ-> mulga: show the file you edited
[01:32] <sireebob> nothing is truly random, but based on log entries, it *appears* to be a spontaneous death of mysql. and i just discovered it happened to postgresql too.
[01:32] <daftykins> qwe123ee: and what happened with this setup prior to you 'installing an intel driver' (which was a bad move)
[01:32] <qwe123ee> everything seems to work fine, installation went well, but the color has been off the whole time
[01:33] <sireebob> oh... well... the postgres log actually gives an error. "No space left on device." okay, fiiine. it looks like i have space but apparently not enough.
[01:33] <jshanab> Both depend on shared memory. Check the setup AND run a boot level memchecker that excersizes memory
[01:33] <TJ-> sireebob: what host is it on? bare-metal, VM, how much dedicated RAM, etc.
[01:33] <daftykins> qwe123ee: what kind of computer is it? branded? laptop/desktop ?
[01:33] <daftykins> jshanab: best to include the nick of who you're talking to
[01:33] <sireebob> bare-shoebox, 6GB
[01:34] <qwe123ee> daftykins: it's a dell inspiron 17r 5737
[01:34] <TJ-> sireebob: So, just a file-system out-of-space issue then? use "df" to check
[01:34] <daftykins> qwe123ee: latest BIOS?
[01:34] <qwe123ee> daftykins: that I'm not sure of
[01:35] <sireebob> yeah, i've been using that. there is one drive that is critically low and others that are VERY low. but none looked low enough to be causing this. it appears i was wrong.
[01:35] <sireebob> var      10G  6.9G  717M  91% /var
[01:35] <heipa> celexi: I got error dpkg: error processing archive /home/alex/Downloads/linuxqq_v1.0.2-beta1_i386.deb (--install):  parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/control' near line 7 package 'linuxqq':  error in 'Version' field string 'v1.0.2-beta1': version number does not start with digit
[01:35] <sireebob> it's btrfs so the readings are inherently confusing...
[01:35] <TJ-> sireebob: 5% is reserved for root (uid=0). so in practice everyone else gets "out of space" when there's 5% remaining
[01:35] <daftykins> qwe123ee: well, throw your service tag into their website :>
[01:35] <heipa> so do I unpack deb and then fix file and make?
[01:36] <sireebob> per partition?
[01:36] <sireebob> filesystem*
[01:37] <TJ-> sireebob: If the database daemons are writing log files they'll go to "/var/lib/..." which would push that 91% to 95% quite easily, unless /var/ is a very large file-system
[01:37] <sireebob> that makes a lot of sense. sigh... i'm running out of room everywhere...
[01:37] <sireebob> thank you [all] for the help and insight.
[01:37] <TJ-> sireebob: "log files" as in data yet to be commited to the main db file, *not* logs as in  "/var/log/*" :p
[01:38] <sireebob> yay for credit card debt.
[01:38] <TJ-> sireebob: I usually have separate file-system mounts for /var/cache/ and /var/log/, and any other directories under /var/ that grow uncontrolled
[01:40] <qwe123ee> daftykins: ok, it says the latest bios is a08 and I'm running a07
[01:40] <Josh1503> Can anyone help me change screen resolution? Stuck at 800x600 on a 48" Monitor haha
[01:40] <cromagi> I have a wireless wifi adapter in my other pc running ubuntu 14.04. But i cannot use it.
[01:40] <daftykins> qwe123ee: does it give a list of changes?
[01:40] <cromagi> I went to additional drivers and have run updates and everything
[01:41] <daftykins> Josh1503: graphics card + driver? ubuntu version?
[01:41] <TJ-> Josh1503: In a terminal, try "xrandr -q"
[01:41] <qwe123ee> daftykins: it lists no fixes, and under enhancements it says -Disable MrcFastBoot when enter Diagnostic Mode. -Set RTC data mode to BCD at POST.
[01:42] <daftykins> qwe123ee: what processor is in this?
[01:42] <daftykins> exact model.
[01:42] <Josh1503> Dafty I honestly dont know my graphics card xD Ubuntu version 14.04.1. TJ-: I thought you were off to sleep ;) and I've already tried xrandr, only available resolution was 800x600
[01:42] <cromagi> Anyone?
[01:43] <daftykins> Josh1503: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "lspci | pastebinit" and link us
[01:43] <Josh1503> daftykins: Ok 2 secs
[01:43] <daftykins> cromagi: USB thing?
[01:43] <TJ-> Josh1503: I was, but 2 huskies kept me up! OK, so its using the VESA driver for now I'd guess. So next you need to identify and install/enable the correct driver. Use "lspci -nnv | gep VGA" to try identifying the GPU
[01:44] <TJ-> Josh1503: typo "gep" > "grep"
[01:45] <Josh1503> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9946741/
[01:45] <daftykins> aaaah the classic 750 Ti
[01:45] <Josh1503> TJ- : Lol fair enough, my lspci is in the pastebin above
[01:45] <daftykins> Josh1503: easiest option, add the xorg-edgers PPA and install the nvidia 34x driver version
[01:45] <qwe123ee> Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4200U CPU @ 1.60GHz
[01:45] <n3tfry3r> hey0
[01:46] <n3tfry3r> anyone have hair left to offer? as i've removed all of mine trying to get sudo to authenticate to AD
[01:47] <daftykins> Josh1503: https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[01:48] <TJ-> n3tfry3r: have you seen this? http://serverfault.com/questions/570806/include-ad-domain-admins-group-in-linux-sudoers
[01:49] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: thx for responding... i'll check that out quick
[01:49] <qwe123ee> daftykins: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4200U CPU @ 1.60GHz
[01:49] <n3tfry3r> i've added myself to the linux admin group for sudo access
[01:50] <cromagi> No the wireless router that is inside of my computer
[01:50] <n3tfry3r> but when i attempt to sudo, it doesnt seem to be auth'ing to AD, and just keeps giving incorrect password errors
[01:52] <TJ-> n3tfry3r: Have you already configured authentication to the AD for regular log-ins?
[01:52] <jamesd> i wonder if anyone besides a walmart or kmart computer buyer would purposely purchase an i5 at 1.6ghz?
[01:54] <zeleno_oki> Any techies here that can assist me in making a decision about an old netbook (Toshiba Satellite A200-AH6) I just got? :) (Is there a way to install a SSD because SD card reader is busted)
[01:54] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: yes, i can ssh using AD creds
[01:54] <daftykins> zeleno_oki: netbook? bury it
[01:54] <bazhang> ##hardware zeleno_oki
[01:55] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: just seems to be looking locally for sudo password, rather than authing against AD
[01:56] <TJ-> n3tfry3r: So,in "/etc/sudoers", you have something like "%DOMAIN\\Domain_Admin ALL=(ALL)ALL" ?
[01:56] <compdoc> zeleno_oki, does the laptop support ahci in the bios
[01:56] <compdoc> ?
[01:57] <TJ-> n3tfry3r: where "Domain_Admin' is the AD's domain administrators group
[01:57] <zeleno_oki> compdoc this is all I found out about it http://goo.gl/TuZ2zD
[01:58] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: no, because i dont want to control sudo access through Domain_admin group membership
[01:58] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: i granted my own account sudoers access locally on the linux box
[01:59] <zeleno_oki> daftykins even though you're right that little piece of crap will be set up for my parents to browse/use mail/watch a movie
[01:59] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: and pam.d/sudo is configured per the recommended settings
[01:59] <TJ-> n3tfry3r: So something like "DOMAIN\\username ALL=(ALL)ALL" ?
[01:59] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: i'll try that, sec
[02:00] <daftykins> zeleno_oki: i wouldn't give a netbook to my arch nemesis
[02:00] <TJ-> n3tfry3r: Also, watch "/var/log/auth.log" for clues
[02:00] <compdoc> zeleno_oki, Intel says the chipset supports ahci. but you have to reboot and enter the bios to see if the option is there
[02:01] <compdoc> zeleno_oki, without ahci, the drive wont be as fast and might not last as many years as one that does have ahci
[02:01] <zeleno_oki> compdoc I'll check it now, brb (Thanks for your time btw)
[02:01] <TJ-> zeleno_oki: Try "grep -i ahci /var/log/dmesg"
[02:01] <compdoc> most ssds are 7mm, should should fit anything that has a 2.5" sata hard drive installed
[02:02] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: no bueno, im tailing the auth.log
[02:02] <Josh1503> !ppa-purge
[02:02] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: it's just saying "incorrect password" for those sudo attempts
[02:03] <TJ-> n3tfry3r: Is there any network comms going on? You could monitor with tcpdump
[02:03] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: it's not even trying to hit AD, its looking at the local creds
[02:03] <qwe123ee> daftykins: Any thoughts?
[02:03] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: i'm watching netstat to see if any connections establish to the AD server
[02:04] <n3tfry3r> TJ-: it definitely connects out @ SSH auth, just not sudo auth
[02:04] <TJ-> n3tfry3r: OK, so something in the pam config then
[02:05] <daftykins> qwe123ee: no, but i would definitely not have installed anything from intel, what's in ubuntu as default is all that should be used. checked out a live session of 14.10 to see if the colours are odd there too?
[02:06] <qwe123ee> daftykins: that's a good idea, I'll try it. Thanks for your help!
[02:06] <daftykins> np
[02:07] <Danielc1234> How can I setup a user to have access to only one folder and it's subdirectories?
[02:07] <daftykins> that's as default, it's calle their /home ;)
[02:07] <daftykins> *called too
[02:08] <Danielc1234> yes, but I don't want to them to have access to that folder but another one.
[02:08] <Danielc1234> they are doing work on our websites and did not want them snooping around.
[02:08] <daftykins> create the user on the command line specifying an alternate /home
[02:08] <Danielc1234> is there any docs on that? I've looked, but it does not show how to alter the directories.
[02:09] <dupingping> hi arges
[02:09] <daftykins> man adduser
[02:09] <daftykins> dupingping: no root ubuntu today, please
[02:09] <dupingping> daftykins, yes
[02:10] <daftykins> please don't ask about that again :)
[02:10] <dupingping> daftykins, yes, i understand it. And i already solved that problem.
[02:10] <zeleno_oki> compdoc it seems that option isn't shown in this BIOS
[02:10] <dupingping> I decided to use dm-tool --lock command instead of gnome-screensaver-command --lock
[02:11] <dupingping> daftykins, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule
[02:11] <dupingping> look
[02:11] <compdoc> zeleno_oki:   <TJ-> zeleno_oki: Try "grep -i ahci /var/log/dmesg"
[02:11] <dupingping> why there is no 12.04.6?
[02:11] <dupingping> when will 12.04.6 be released?
[02:12] <zeleno_oki> compdoc nothing happens ,not even error msg
[02:12] <daftykins> dupingping: no point when 14.04 is LTS
[02:12] <Xenos> one quick question about firebird
[02:12] <daftykins> dupingping: you should consider stopping using ubuntu wrong, if you can't get things working with 14.04 :)
[02:13] <Xenos> to label something junk, you press the flame symbol so the ones without the flame symbol ARE junk and the ones without, aren't?
[02:13] <ZDM-> I'm partitioning /boot using ext4. Theres mount options. Should I use any of these options? Heres a list of the options: http://pastebin.com/xgz1323Z
[02:14] <compdoc> zeleno_oki, in the specs for the computer, it shows the sata version is too old to support the nicer features of sata
[02:15] <zeleno_oki> compdoc ehh problem is I'm stuck with an old and dying 5400 RPM HDD that is killing any OS install
[02:15] <compdoc>  zeleno_oki, its the slowest kind of sata port, so if you buy an sdd, it doesnt need to be the fastest, most expensive version
[02:16] <compdoc> 128G ssds are selling for about $60 now days
[02:16] <zeleno_oki> compdoc but I can install it on this old netbook? I wasn't planning to buy something extreme. 32-60 GB SDD max.
[02:16] <Jordan_U> ZDM-: Why do you want separate /boot/ partition?
[02:17] <ZDM-> No Reason, just following this http://askubuntu.com/questions/343268/how-to-use-manual-partitioning-during-installation
[02:17] <jamesd> zeleno_oki: does it have a sata port, and not an IDE
[02:18] <jamesd> if its sata you can probably install just about any sata ssd you can afford...  since most are less than 2TB.
[02:18] <ZDM-> Oh and right now compdoc you can get a 120gb ssd from kingston for $52 on amazon.
[02:19] <Jordan_U> ZDM-: Don't bother with a separate /boot/ partition.
[02:19] <compdoc> zeleno_oki, the specs you gave doesnt show which hard drive is installed. got a model number?
[02:19] <ZDM-> Why Jordan_U
[02:19] <jamesd> just upgraded my bedroom machine for a 160GB laptop drive to a 128G ssd, deffinely worth the cost.. and gotta love gparted live disk
[02:19] <zeleno_oki> compdoc yes ,sec
[02:20] <zeleno_oki> jamesd I'll do post output of hdparm -I /dev/sda
[02:21] <Jordan_U> ZDM-: Because it's not needed, and it means that you have to worry about it filling up and needing to repartition (or you have to worry about filling up your root fs when you could have been making use of the space you allocated only to /boot/). The same argument goes for a separate /home/ partition.
[02:21] <zeleno_oki> compdoc http://paste.ubuntu.com/9947269/
[02:21] <zeleno_oki> jamesd http://paste.ubuntu.com/9947269/
[02:21] <Danielc1234> daftykins hey, I was able to create a user and set their directory to where I want them to be, however when I try to edit files using their SSH login, I am getting permissions denied. What else do I need to do?
[02:21] <jamesd> zeleno_oki: since its  /dev/sda and not  /dev/hda  its most likely a sata disk
[02:22] <ZDM-> So should I also not bother with /var and /tmp?
[02:22] <jamesd> its a sata disk... it will run any sata ssd you buy.
[02:22] <compdoc> zeleno_oki, any ssd should work fine
[02:22] <bynarie> everytime i download a file with firefox, no matter what type of file, and i try to open it from the firefox download window, it always opens with sqlite browser.. any ideas
[02:22] <Jordan_U> ZDM-: Correct, you should keep everything except maybe swap as part of one partition. (Swap can be stored on a file within your root partition instead of on a separate partition).
[02:22] <bynarie> ?
[02:23] <zeleno_oki> jamesd I sure hope so. Thanks for your time :)
[02:23] <Mr_Sheesh> Sure a lot of _3o3_'s about >.>
[02:23] <theadmin> bynarie, tell Firefox to open the file with /usr/bin/xdg-open
[02:23] <theadmin> Firefox can't tell filetypes apart so best leave it up to the system itself
[02:23] <zeleno_oki> compdoc and yours too. Really helpful ! :)
[02:23] <compdoc> this is what you have now:   http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822116025
[02:23] <bynarie> might u advise me on how to do that please theadmin ?
[02:23] <ZDM-> thanks Jordan_U
[02:24] <jamesd> zeleno_oki: the hard part will be backing up the laptop, and then restoring the data unless you have  a second machine
[02:24] <theadmin> bynarie: Ehhh... It's been years since I used Firefox... oof. It's somewhere under Settings -> Content if I remember correctly
[02:24] <bynarie> ok ill find it
[02:24] <bynarie> thank you
[02:25] <zeleno_oki> jamesd what to backup? This is currently running crunchbang until I fly back to home then I'll install fresh OS (most likely Ubuntu with LXDE)
[02:25] <Jordan_U> ZDM-: You're welcome.
[02:25] <LurkAshFlake> I have a file name examples.desktop in $HOME may i delete it?
[02:26] <bynarie> theadmin, nope its not anywhere in settings
[02:26] <theadmin> LurkAshFlake: Sure, it links to the "Examples" directory
[02:26] <theadmin> bynarie: Well they might have changed stuff around. Sorry, I dunno
[02:26] <dupingping> daftykins, then there is no 12.04.6 lts forever?
[02:26] <theadmin> LurkAshFlake: That contains some weird music/movie files
[02:26] <theadmin> LurkAshFlake: I honestly don't know what that is
[02:26] <bynarie> thats ok.. i appreciate the help
[02:26] <dupingping> i must use 14.04 lts for HWE since now?
[02:27] <daftykins> dupingping: all the .x releases are, are updated ISOs. there's not even any reason to wait for a new one, just keep all packages up to date. as far as i understand it, using a 12.04.4+ gives you the 14.04 HWE by default
[02:27] <LurkAshFlake> /usr/share/example-content/ weird gonna check that
[02:27] <daftykins> no you can run a 3.2.0 kernel still
[02:30] <dupingping> daftykins, probably, 12.04 lts pointrelease have stopped at 12.04.5?
[02:30] <daftykins> i don't know.
[02:30] <dupingping> umm?
[02:30] <daftykins> i just told you it doesn't matter either way :)
[02:31] <dupingping> daftykins, i meant that
[02:31] <dupingping> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[02:31] <daftykins> i don't understand you
[02:31] <dupingping> the url shows me the schedule for 12.04.5 and 14.04.5.
[02:32] <dupingping> dont show me anymore.
[02:32] <dupingping> daftykins, do you know canonical's plan for 12.04 and 14.04?
[02:32] <daftykins> you do realise we're volunteers and not staff, right?
[02:33] <dupingping> sure. i understand.
[02:34] <dupingping> but if 12.04 stopped to release pointrelease, i must use 14.04 since now.
[02:34] <dupingping> how do you think about pointrelease?
[02:34] <dupingping> i think that pointrelease's main goal is HWE.
[02:35] <dupingping> if there is no HWE, it's not pointrelease.
[02:35] <dupingping> right?
[02:36] <daftykins> if installing today, i would install 14.04.1 anyway.
[02:37] <dupingping> daftykins, if 12.04.6 is exist, i'll use 12.04.6 instead of 14.04.1
[02:37] <dupingping> because i more like 12.04 than 14.04
[02:37] <dupingping> and i have more experiences about 12.04 than 14.04
[02:38] <daftykins> yeah well you can't keep living in the past
[02:38] <daftykins> precise will die in 2017, then it's game over
[02:38] <dupingping> of course, 14.04 have better points than 12.04
[02:38] <dupingping> sure.
[02:38] <daftykins> perhaps if you used ubuntu like it's meant to be used you wouldn't have any issues
[02:39] <dupingping> i guessed that 12.04.6 will be released Feb this year,
[02:39] <dupingping> but
[02:40] <ObrienDave> then there would be no need for us ;P
[02:40] <dupingping> actually,
[02:40] <daftykins> ObrienDave: heh, well this is the one that enjoys running X as root
[02:40] <dupingping> 12.04.6 is not released.
[02:40] <daftykins> i would only ever run HWEs of a newer LTS release, not HWEs of normal releases
[02:46] <Bashing-om> dupingping: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule?action=show&redirect=PreciseReleaseSchedule .
[02:49] <dupingping> HWE life time is not same as LTS life cycle?
[02:52] <Bashing-om> dupingping: HWE expires same time as the supported kernel expires .
[02:55] <donpibe2> Hi. Does Anyone know a guide to implement SEcure Neighbor Discovery protocol in ubuntu? Thanks
[03:01] <ZDM-> Okay so I just got done installing ubuntu but I ran into a problem with grub. It wouldn't install to my ssd, gave me the "Failed to install to /dev/sda" error. I continued without and restarted my laptop. From my understanding I have ubuntu installed just not grub, right? Is my install okay?
[03:04] <Bashing-om> ZDM-: Fropm the liveDVD (installer) look at the hard drive -> sudo parted -l , df -h . Then yeay maybe just a case of installing grub .
[03:04] <Bashing-om> from*
[03:05] <JHOSMAN> Hi, can someone tell me how to renew my membership as Ubuntu member? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership
[03:06] <ZDM-> I don't have the live option because im using minimal install. Can I go into Command-Line expert install to do that Bashing-om ?
[03:06] <ZDM-> or maybe rescue mode or something?
[03:07] <Bashing-om> ZDM-: Not if grub is not installed . Will have to have that liveDVD to install grub .
[03:07] <ZDM-> well shit, i only have one usb on me :\
[03:10] <Bashing-om> ZDM-: Try'n to recall what options are on the minimal install disk . Honestly, I do not remember . What options do you see -> boot the liveUSB abd as soon as bios scren clears depress and hold the right shift key -> language screen, escape key to accept the defaults -> boot options screen .
[03:12] <rnair> hey guys had a quick question
[03:12] <ZDM-> I see install, command line install, advanced options  and Help Bashing-om
[03:12] <rnair> does ubuntu 14.04   use *systemd*
[03:12] <ZDM-> In the advanced options there is Expert install, command line expert install, and rescue mode.
[03:13] <Bashing-om> ZDM-: What result with key combo ctl+alt+F4 ? terminal ?
[03:13] <overrider> I am accessing a Windows file share and it takes FOREVER to list the folder contents (a fair amount of images). Can i make it somehow so it simply lists the file names without trying to read any metadata or create thumbnails etc? I really only care about listing the files, no need to calculate any directory sizes or anything.
[03:14] <overrider> Accessing via smb
[03:14] <Bashing-om> rnair: 14.04 uses upstart, systemD skeduled for 16.04 .
[03:15] <rnair> ok
[03:16] <ZDM-> That does nothing Bashing-om
[03:16] <rnair> Bashing-om: ok cool :)
[03:16] <divBy0> hey i have a wine question hopefully someone here can help me out #winehq is kinda dead...
[03:17] <divBy0> i'm trying to install dotnet40 in wine and it keeps failing with Final Result: Installation failed with error code: (0x8007064F) i set the prefix to 32-bit
[03:17] <divBy0> in terminal it outputs dotnet40 install completed, but installed file /home/camilo/.mynewwine32prefix//dosdevices/c:/windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319/ngen.exe not found

[03:17] <divBy0> Executing rm -f /home/camilo/.mynewwine32prefix//dosdevices/c:/windows/system32/mscoree.dll
[03:18] <Bashing-om> ZDM-: Sorry, I am out of ideas, short of burning a liveDVD(USB) . Maybe others have an idea of what you can do from the minimal install disk to 'see' the install .
[03:25] <divBy0> i would like to backup my packages before doing a apt-get autoremove, what do i need to backup?
[03:33] <donpibe2> Hi. Does Anyone know a guide to implement SEcure Neighbor Discovery protocol in ubuntu? Thanks
[03:40] <apb1963> Anyone else see the security bulletin for linux?  glibc upgrade?
[03:41] <somsip> apb1963: many people will have done, but what's your question?
[03:41] <apb1963> somsip: how to upgrade glibc, since it's unclear exactly what file name one must reference from the repos.
[03:42] <qubic> ubuntu-tweak keeps crashing when it scans .cache thumbnails folder..the folder is protected. how can i unprotect it to delete contents?
[03:42] <somsip> apb1963: ajust update and upgrade, or is that not an option for you?
[03:42] <somsip> qubic: I delete mine regularly in a cronjob, so yes. What permissions is on it now?
[03:43] <apb1963> somsip: I'm thinking it's not, since "glibc" wasn't found
[03:43] <qubic> i am logged in as root but it says i do not have permission
[03:43] <qubic> can i just delete the who .cache folder?
[03:44] <apb1963> somsip: I'm guessing it's called something else.  What did you do to patch your system?
[03:44] <somsip> apb1963: this is fairly comprehensive if you want to have a read and see what you can do http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/cve-2015-0235-patch-ghost-on-debian-ubuntu-fedora-centos-rhel-linux/
[03:44] <somsip> apb1963: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade, then reboot. But this might always be suitable like, on a server.
[03:45] <apb1963> I did apt-get upgrade glibc
[03:45] <somsip> qubic: don't delete folders if you dont know what they are for. Best to use sudo and not login as root, and what are the permissions?
[03:45] <somsip> apb1963: try doing it right then...that is not valid for apt-get. If you want to upgrade one package, apt-get install {packagename}
[03:46] <somsip> apb1963: but update first
[03:46] <qubic> somsip: it says create and delete, but the option is not highlighted so i can't select anything.."you are not the owner blah blah"
[03:47] <somsip> qubic: can you do a ls -la from the terminal to get the real permissions? I could tell you to juch chmod -R {your user}:{your user} ~/.cache but I want to be sure that is the best thing to do
[03:48] <Misamisaka> ls
[03:48] <qubic> drwx------  41 qq   qq       12288 Jan 25 00:02 .cache
[03:48] <Misamisaka> How do I disable the "Contains digital photos" bar when I use an SD card?
[03:49] <somsip> qubic: so if your user is qq, that looks fine. What about the contents? Check the perms on those
[03:49] <qubic> somsip: drwx------  3 root root    4096 Nov 13 03:19 fail
[03:49] <qubic> this is the folder that is protected
[03:50] <somsip> qubic: do a sudo ls -ls inside that folder to make sure nothing is important before deleting it
[03:50] <somsip> qubic: like sudo ls -la .cache/fail
[03:52] <qubic> bash: cd: fail: Permission denied
[03:52] <somsip> qubic: yes, do a 'sudo ls' from outside the directory
[03:53] <apb1963> somsip: thank you... what's the ubuntu name of the glibc package that needs to be upgraded?
[03:53] <qubic> ls: cannot access /.cache/thumbnails/fail: No such file or directory
[03:54] <qubic> when i type this : sudo ls -la /.cache/thumbnails/fail
[03:54] <void321> hello im having the same problem as this guy: http://askubuntu.com/questions/458611/blacklisting-nouveau-not-working-on-ubuntu-14-04
[03:54] <somsip> apb1963: not sure to be honest. one of the libc* I would guess
[03:55] <void321> blacklisting nouveau isnt working, it still gets loaded
[03:55] <void321> ubuntu 14.04.1 lts
[03:56] <qubic> somsip: why would i have "contents unreadable" on a folder
[03:56] <somsip> qubic: because the path you typed is wrong
[03:56] <exactingpenguin> Hey does anyone have any advice for a video card issue? I just installed 14.04 on a Dell Inspiron 17R 5737 with an Intel HD Haswell 4400 Integrated graphics card, and the colors are completely off on my screen. (pics: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B5JVeramRd-zU1lQeGt6YXJCajQ&usp=sharing) HDMI output is fine, and if I boot with nomodeset then it works fine, but this disables hardware acceleration.
[03:57] <somsip> qubic: if you are not logged in as root, sudo -i then cd /home/qq/.cache/thumbnails/fail, then do an ls -la
[03:57] <qubic> sudo ls -la .cache/thumbnails/fail total 12 drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Nov 13 03:19
[03:57] <qubic> ok i went back to home and then did it
[03:58] <somsip> qubic: I'm just trying to make sure there is nothing important in there. Do you just want to delete it all or check first?
[03:58] <qubic> i'd like to know what is in it
[03:58] <somsip> qubic: sudo ls -la /home/qq/.cache/thumbnails/fail
[03:59] <qubic> total 12 drwx------ 3 root root 4096 Nov 13 03:19 . drwx------ 5 qq   qq   4096 Nov 19 12:54 .. drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Nov 13 03:19 gnome-thumbnail-factory
[03:59] <qubic> just this
[03:59] <qubic> there is something in the folders but i can't read
[04:00] <somsip> qubic: so extend the ls to show the contents of that directory - sudo -i ls -la /home/qq/.cache/thumbnails/fail/gnome-thumbnail-factory
[04:00] <Guest43693> gmail.com
[04:02] <qubic> somsip: i have deleted the contents of the other folders
[04:02] <void321> where can i read ubuntu documentation about blacklisting nouveau kernel driver?
[04:02] <qubic> somsip: now it says 0 files in "fail" folder
[04:02] <void321> obviously blacklisting stuff in /etc/modprobe.d/ isnt working
[04:03] <somsip> qubic: so delete the fail folder with sudo rmdir if you are happy it is empty
[04:03] <void321> ./etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf is just there as interior decorating or something because system doesnt care about it

[04:23] <joshumax> Something strange is going on with my ubuntu install, when I try to update my sources cache, it doesn't seem to work:
[04:23] <joshumax> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9948996/
[04:24] <ObrienDave> exactingpenguin, have you tried the latest Intel graphics stack?
[04:24] <mustard>  -#ubuntukylin-devel
[04:25] <ObrienDave> exactingpenguin, https://01.org/linuxgraphics/
[04:26] <gr33n7007h> void321, try: `echo options nouveau modeset=0 | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/nouveau-kms.conf && update-initramfs -u`
[04:27] <void321> yeah that did the trick,  a bit too late...
[04:27] <exactingpenguin> ObrienDave: thanks, but yeah I tried it, the utility recognized my hardware and installed the latest driver, but it didn't fix the problem
[04:28] <joshumax> anyone have an idea?
[04:29] <somsip> !info sl | joshumax
[04:30] <joshumax> ah, apt moved my repo sources.list during an upgrade
[04:30] <joshumax> somsip: How is that related to my question at all?
[04:32] <somsip> joshumax: I was checking if sl was a valid package, as I didn't recognise the name
[04:32] <joshumax> ah
[04:32] <joshumax> well now I'm curious as to why apt would move my sources.list for no good reason
[04:53] <ICantLinux> In light of the new KDE plasma release, is there any way to install Plasma 5.2 alongside Unity as an alternate DE (not using Kubuntu atm)? The current universe package still appears to be v4

[05:08] <Thrzsh_> How does Ubuntu put their name in the kernel version string?
[05:09] <ICantLinux> Ben64: Because it's unstable? Or are there dependancy issues as well?
[05:10] <Ben64> ICantLinux: because ppas aren't supported
[05:10] <researcher123> how to know list of channels available for support?
[05:11] <cfhowlett> !alis | researcher123
[05:11] <ICantLinux> Ben64: Ah, I see. Guess I'll just brave any issues with the ppa then (not running anything mission critical, after all). Thanks.
[05:15] <setuid> I"m sure it's been asked a thousand times, but any ETA on GHOST patches for 13, 12 and 10?
[05:16] <Ben64> setuid: what is ghost
[05:16] <Ben64> setuid: and what is 13, 12 and 10
[05:17] <cfhowlett> setuid, both 2013 ubuntu releases are long end of life.
[05:18] <Ben64> ok, did some googling and it has already been fixed for all supported ubuntu versions
[05:19] <setuid> ..except the last 4
[05:19] <Ben64> which "last 4"
[05:19] <setuid> Looks like 10.10 LTS has been updated though
[05:20] <Ben64> 10.10 is not LTS and not updated to fix that, since it is no longer supported
[05:20] <setuid> I'm working my way through the versions to see which have fixes, which don't, and which versions we need to build ourselves
[05:20] <setuid> Sorry, 10.04, not 10.10
[05:20] <setuid> and 10.04 has the libc fixes, so we're good there
[05:20] <Ben64> look at the topic for the supported versions... all of those are not vulnerable
[05:21] <Ben64> if you're running any other version, you shouldn't be
[05:21] <setuid> Right, but in the real world, we don't just run only the supported versions
[05:21] <setuid> "Shouldn't be" and reality are not the same
[05:21] <Ben64> in the real world, you should care enough about security to run versions that are supported, not doing so is just crazy
[05:22] <cfhowlett> setuid, I think the rule for running unsupported  version is "YOU break it, YOU fix it."
[05:22] <setuid> It takes many months to get new versions testeed, validated, built, patched, deployed and then get Change Advisory Board approval, schedule RFCs for change windows, get BTG signoff for service outages, etc.
[05:22] <setuid> These things do not turn on a dime
[05:22] <Ben64> or just run LTS versions...
[05:23] <setuid> cfhowlett, that's exactly my point (see above), we're identifying where the deltas are
[05:23] <Ben64> there is no excuse for running a system without support
[05:23] <cfhowlett> setuid, LTS for the win!?
[05:23] <setuid> Ben64, Again, that's not how it works
[05:23] <Ben64> it really is
[05:23] <setuid> Anyway, I've got a path to identifying the deltas, so I'm good for now, we'll build out the missing versions ourselves in our own repo
[05:23] <cfhowlett> setuid, best of luck to you.
[05:24] <Ben64> this is hardly the only bug that will be affecting old systems
[05:24] <setuid> cfhowlett, been doing it for 15+ years, we're all good :)
[05:24] <setuid> Ben64, It's a Sev 1, it takes priority

[06:34] <kungr> lotuspsychje, on my way thanks
[06:37] <i0d9i20> there was a bug in Ubuntu where somehow could take control of you computer via web browser; is it possible for someone to take control of your computer via IRC??
[06:37] <hateball> i0d9i20: Anything is possible
[06:39] <lotuspsychje> !update | i0d9i20
[06:43] <zefie> Hi, i try to install Ubuntu on a 32bit(less 2gb ram) using wubi.exe, but it automaticly downloading ubuntu64. shouldnt it be impossible to install?
[06:45] <lotuspsychje> zefie: make your usb with universal usb installer from the website
[06:45] <xangua> zefie: wubi is not recommended neither maintained
[06:45] <zefie> isnt there other ways to install without usb?
[06:46] <nathanbz> anyone know why my ssh terminates really fast
[06:46] <zefie> lol
[06:46] <lotuspsychje> zefie: yes dvd
[06:47] <zefie> no dvd drive...
[06:47] <nathanbz> I keep getting  " Write failed: Broken pipe"
[06:47] <somsip> nathanbz: connection problems
[06:47] <lotuspsychje> zefie: this universal usb installer from website is the most easy tool ever to create usb
[06:47] <somsip> nathanbz: low timeout on remote...
[06:47] <dnl_tp> hi, i want to configure ssh to use no PasswordAuthentication (done already) but for one user group (one group of sftp users should be able to login via username+password) any suggestions?
[06:48] <lotuspsychje> zefie: choose your usb iso, choose usb stick, write and done
[06:48] <nathanbz> somsip should i be able to update that with /etc/ssh/sshd_config ?
[06:48] <zefie> i wont to format my usb drive, got only one. but if there is no other way...
[06:49] <somsip> nathanbz: it would be where i would look for low timeout if you think it is that
[06:49] <zefie> nathanbz why you dont take a look for that
[06:49] <nathanbz> zefie sorry ?
[06:50] <zefie> nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[06:50] <zefie> then ctrl+w
[06:50] <zefie> search for timeout
[06:51] <nathanbz> there is no timeout :/
[06:52] <zefie> are you sure?
[06:52] <somsip> nathanbz: one of these setting might be the one you need http://serverfault.com/questions/451241/how-to-change-ssh-timeout-on-server-side
[06:57] <nathanbz> ok I added some settings giving it another go
[06:59] <zzf> hello
[07:00] <divBy0> hey if i want to do a apt-get autoremove what should i backup first to be safe
[07:01] <somsip> divBy0: I've never had it fail in about 5 years.
[07:02] <VaibhavRajput> how to handle "stop: Unknown instance:" on sudo stop <service> command?
[07:02] <somsip> VaibhavRajput: stop a service that is running
[07:03] <divBy0> somsip, k i'll hold you to it :)
[07:04] <divBy0> somsip, should i do anything after running the audoremove?
[07:04] <somsip> divBy0: other than retype it spelt correctly? ;)
[07:04] <divBy0> lol
[07:04] <VaibhavRajput> somsip, Yes I know that it checks weather the service is running or not, if it is running then it will stop it otherwise it will just through error "stop: Unknown instance:" and I wanted to check it service is not running then display message that it is not running.
[07:04] <somsip> divBy0: no - you can apt-clean if you really want to tidy up
[07:04] <nathanbz> doesn't seem to work :/
[07:05] <somsip> VaibhavRajput: then you probably want sudo service {service} status as a condition
[07:06] <VaibhavRajput> Can I check whether the service is running or not in <service>.conf file?
[07:06] <VaibhavRajput> somsip,
[07:06] <somsip> VaibhavRajput
[07:07] <linuxer>  I have 2 processes writing parallel on 2 physical drives mounted on /mnt/a and /mnt/b. Will this is faster than if it were 1 physical drive and writing on 2 different directories in parallel?
[07:07] <VaibhavRajput> somsip, Can I check whether the service is running or not in <service>.conf file?
[07:07] <linuxer> I other words, sharing parallel writes on different physical drives are faster right?
[07:10] <somsip> VaibhavRajput: It would surprise me if you could.
[07:10] <divBy0> any recommendations mono vs. wine?
[07:10] <divBy0> i mean mono vs dotnet
[07:11] <somsip> divBy0: best to ask in a programming channel.
[07:11] <VaibhavRajput> somsip, I tried with sudo service <service> stop it is giving me the same error.
[07:11] <somsip> VaibhavRajput: it'll do that if the service is not running.
[07:15] <divBy0> hey what's the best way to completely remove and reinstall wine for starting over fresh
[07:15] <VaibhavRajput> somsip, that is what I want to catch it. Is it possible to catch that somewhere some how? I am using capistrano. and it has one task. and because of this it is failing.
[07:15] <Ben64> divBy0: what are you trying to accomplish
[07:15] <divBy0> trying to install .net
[07:16] <divBy0> keep getting HRESULT errors and output in terminal about missing file names
[07:16] <Ben64> make a new prefix and/or rename your current .wine folder
[07:17] <divBy0> what about also removing purging and reinstalling wine
[07:18] <Ben64> pointless
[07:18] <divBy0> does it need to be a 32-bit prefix for dotnet to work
[07:18] <Ben64> you should check the appdb or something for that
[07:19] <divBy0> what's the appdb
[07:19] <hateball> !wine
[07:19] <hateball> ugh
[07:19] <hateball> !appdb
[07:19] <hateball> !winetricks
[07:19] <hateball> mhm
[07:20] <hateball> divBy0: You can use winetricks to install all such things
[07:20] <hateball> It'll create proper prefixes etc
[07:20] <divBy0> that's what i've been trying, winetricks dotnet
[07:20] <divBy0> winetricks dotnet40
[07:21] <hateball> divBy0: just running winetricks should give you a GUI to pick what you want... to eliminate any typos
[07:24] <lolmaus> Please recommend an audio player that displays CUE as separate tracks.
[07:26] <divBy0> hateball, theres a gui but nothing about dotnet40
[07:27] <Ben64> what application are you trying to run, have you checked the appdb yet
[07:27] <divBy0> $ winetricks dotnet40
[07:27] <divBy0> ------------------------------------------------------
[07:27] <divBy0> You are using a 64-bit WINEPREFIX. If you encounter problems, please retest in a clean 32-bit WINEPREFIX before reporting a bug.
[07:27] <divBy0> ------------------------------------------------------
[07:27] <divBy0> Executing w_do_call dotnet40
[07:27] <divBy0> Executing load_dotnet40

[07:39] <divByz0> wtf
[07:54] <KingOfOOP> Does anyone remembers my problem ???
[07:55] <xangua> you were even given a default source list file
[07:57] <KingOfOOP> Yeah , wait. looks like it's solved.

[08:18] <smr2> Hi
[08:19] <thighsofwisdom> mornin squires
[08:37] <KingOfOOP> Solved , thanks everyone.
[08:44] <kat_MK> Hello. I am a new user to Ubuntu and installed it replacing windows 2 days ago. I have not been able to install anything to my computer. If I attempt to install something from the internet, it says NOT FOUND through the software center. If I try to install anything directly from software center it says BAD REQUEST.
[08:46] <ePierre> Hi everyone!
[08:47] <kat_MK> hello!
[08:47] <tony_> Ciao a tutti!
[08:48] <ePierre> I have a question related to the laptop lids in Ubuntu 14.*
[08:48] <kat_MK> Hello. Can anyone help me? I am a new user to Ubuntu and installed it replacing windows 2 days ago. I have not been able to install anything to my computer since then. If I attempt to install something from the internet, it says NOT FOUND through the software center. If I try to install anything directly from software center it says BAD REQUEST.
[08:50] <ePierre> On my laptop (Acer Aspire VN7-591G), when I close the lid, the laptop goes into suspend mode (OK), but when I open it I have to manually press the power button to resume. I tested on a HP laptop I have here with Ubuntu 12.04 and opening the lid resumes, just like it would do on a Macbook pro/air. Do you know why it doesn't work on my Acer and what I could do to enable it?
[08:50] <breadmonster> Hey guys, I have a slight problem with GRUB.
[08:50] <breadmonster> I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 with Win8.1
[08:51] <ePierre> kat_MK, when you say "anything from the Internet" you mean when you click on a "apt://" link, or when you download a .deb? or something else?
[08:51] <breadmonster> My fan died, so I gave it to the HP Service Center.
[08:51] <breadmonster> Now GRUB doesn't load on boot, Windows does.
[08:51] <breadmonster> Should I just boot to a LiveCD and run boot-repair?
[08:52] <Hardcore7> Hello people
[08:52] <ePierre> breadmonster, you can try this... I'm not too familiar with Grub issues though.
[08:52] <ikonia> breadmonster: I would use live media to check if your actual OS is there first
[08:52] <ikonia> breadmonster: if you run grub and they have deleted the ubuntu partitions, you will be in a mess
[08:53] <breadmonster> ikonia: No, so when they opened my laptop to take my fan out, they removed the HDD.
[08:53] <hateball> Chances are they will have re-imaged the machine if you sent it to service
[08:53] <breadmonster> ikonia: Which was with me the whole time.
[08:53] <hateball> oh
[08:53] <breadmonster> So it's kinda strange that things aren't as usual...
[08:53] <ikonia> breadmonster: then won't have deleted grub so your machine should boot as normal
[08:53] <breadmonster> do you think disconnecting the motherboard would have set the BIOS to it's old values?
[08:53] <kat_MK> Well for example, I can't watch videos because I don't have the flash for them, so I try to download it, it directs me to choose an application for it, and the recommended app is software center, but then it immediately says "NOT FOUND"
[08:53] <hateball> If you're using UEFI they could have removed the ubuntu partition there
[08:54] <ikonia> breadmonster: it's nothing to do with bios
[08:54] <ikonia> breadmonster: grub is not on the bios
[08:54] <breadmonster> ikonia: So what do I do now?
[08:54] <breadmonster> hateball: Well, where is the UEFI storage located?
[08:54] <breadmonster> hateball: Because they didn't touch my HDD.
[08:55] <Mattias> When I try to install virtualbox-dkms I get the following: virtualbox-dkms : Depends: virtualbox (>= 4.3.10-dfsg-1ubuntu1)    and when I start virtualbox it shows version 4.3.20.  Why will it not install? the dependency requirement is met...
[08:56] <TheNumb> Mattias: did you download virtualbox from virtualbox.org?
[08:56] <hateball> breadmonster: right, I didnt quite get that part
[08:56] <Mattias> TheNumb: yeah, through a ppa basically
[08:57] <TheNumb> Mattias: which ppa?
[08:57]  * Mattias checks
[08:57] <breadmonster> hateball: Okay, so they couldn't have run a system restore because they removed the HDD and gave it to me.
[08:57] <breadmonster> hateball: which means that nothing should have changed, except GRUB refuses to load.
[08:57] <Mattias> TheNumb: Oh, apparently I did not use a ppa, the guide I followed was this: http://www.itworld.com/article/2696611/open-source-tools/install-virtualbox-4-3-14-in-ubuntu-14-04.html
[08:58] <TheNumb> Mattias: there's your problem.
[08:58] <TheNumb> https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[08:58] <TheNumb> follow the steps here
[08:58] <Mattias> Thanks, will uninstall this thing I have now
[08:59] <hateball> breadmonster: Yeah sorry I don't know much about dualbooting, and what could go wrong. Arent there any options in uefi/bios for what it loads?
[09:01] <zer0_ii> Is there an Ubuntu channel on a different network with more activity than this?
[09:01] <Hardcore7> zer0_ii: I don't think so..
[09:02] <zer0_ii> I suppose I had higher expectations. Doesn't look like much is going on here other than a bunch of people quitting. This is the first time I've used IRC in years though.
[09:03] <Hardcore7> zer0_ii: do you need help with a problem?
[09:03] <Mattias> TheNumb: I just read through the instructions and they are exactly the same.
[09:03] <zer0_ii> I never imagined that the next time I would connect to IRC that it would be via the command line
[09:03] <Mattias> The other article just copied from there I guess...
[09:03] <DJones> zer0_ii: Its normally quiet at this time of the day, europe is only just waking up and the US will be mostly asleep, it does get busier starting around now that
[09:04] <zer0_ii> Hardcore7: No, I don't need help with a problem. I basically just came here to view others problems, and their possible resolutions, for the sake of learning.
[09:04] <Hardcore7> zer0_ii: DJones is right, I'm living in holland and I just arived my work. lol
[09:04] <Mattias> TheNumb: only diffrence is it installs dkms instead of virtualbox-dkms
[09:05] <Hardcore7> zer0_ii: you should visit this irc later this day too, just to see that there will be more people online; may I ask you where you come form?
[09:05] <Mattias> TheNumb: Maybe I don't need it, looked like the virtualbox-4.3 install actually does install virtualbox-dkms too
[09:05] <Mattias> not just from a separate package but from the same package
[09:07] <zer0_ii> Anyone here ever install giFT and/or giFTcurs? I've been running into an assortment of problems trying to get those two packages installed. It's the first time I've ever actually ran into a problem trying to manually configure a package
[09:10] <zer0_ii> Guess not :/
[09:11] <xangua> zer0_ii: when you ask for help here, you mention the actual problem/error mesage you are having
[09:15] <Hardcore7> what are you guys doing right now?
[09:18] <soppman> WAITING!
[09:18] <MrVamps> does any one know of a web editor like kompozer and bluegriffon. some thing WYSIWYG style, that edits multiple page types(php, html, css, and all)
[09:19] <Hardcore7> soppman: for what? lol
[09:20] <soppman> Hardcore7, response from a job interview.. :)
[09:21] <MrVamps> soppman, best of luck with it..hope things turn out good.
[09:21] <jatt> MrVamps: emacs, but is not wysiwyg
[09:21] <Hardcore7> soppman: nice, wish you the best luck :p
[09:21] <soppman> thanks guys
[09:21] <Hardcore7> soppman: what kind of job if I may ask? just instested now ;)
[09:21] <Ben64> #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:22] <DJones> MrVamps: Thats doesn't seem to be something that there are many of, I'd have said nvu/kompozer, looking at nvu sounds like thats been replaced by blue griffon.  You could look at amaya http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/gutsy/man1/amaya.1.html
[09:22] <soppman> Hardcore7, sysadmin job
[09:23] <Hardcore7> soppman: cool, linux based I guess?
[09:23] <soppman> Hardcore7, mostly bsd but same same
[09:23] <Hardcore7> soppman: I know bsd, that sounds like a nice job
[09:23] <MrVamps> DJones, installed as amaya thru apt?
[09:24] <prashup> #jiocloud
[09:24] <DJones> MrVamps: From what I can see, it doesn't look likes its available through apt, might only be 3rd party software now
[09:24] <prashup> #jiocloud
[09:25] <MrVamps> sounds good, i'll look for a download of that.. thanks
[09:26] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: you there dude?
[09:29] <MrVamps> DJones, thanks again. the w3c website has deb packages to download. i'll give that one a shot and see how it works.
[09:35] <Hardcore7> what is a ping timeout, lost connecting for too long?
[09:35] <KingOfOOP> EriC^: YES
[09:35] <KingOfOOP> yes
[09:35] <Hardcore7> does that mean I won't get kicked of inactivity?
[09:36] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: dont uncheck it, it wont update it anymore
[09:36] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: hold on
[09:38] <breadmonster> ikonia: I'm on the live CD now.
[09:38] <breadmonster> GRUB doesn't work, so I had to boot into the BIOS and tweak some settings.
[09:39] <ikonia> breadmonster: don't understand what you are saying
[09:39] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: Is it possible that you are using GPT?
[09:39] <breadmonster> hateball: Is there a way to test if they've changed UEFI?
[09:40] <breadmonster> Hardcore7: what's GPT?
[09:40] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: I have had issues with GRUB in GPT with UEFI too
[09:40] <ikonia> breadmonster: if you have taken the disk out, grub is untocched so will work fine
[09:40] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: its an partitioning style
[09:40] <breadmonster> Hardcore7: Nope, I was running Ubuntu 14.04 and Win 8.1 perfectly well.
[09:40] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: Have you used windows before installing ubuntu?
[09:40] <breadmonster> Then the fan died, and I gave it for servicing.
[09:40] <breadmonster> Now GRUB doesn't load.
[09:40] <breadmonster> Though my Ubuntu partition is untouched.
[09:41] <breadmonster> Because I can access all my files over the Live CD.
[09:41] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: Have you tried ubuntu live cd and then use boot-repair?
[09:41] <ikonia> do not run boot-repair blindly
[09:41] <ikonia> you need to understand the problem first
[09:41] <breadmonster> Hardcore7: That's what I was going to do but ikonia said otherwise.
[09:42] <ikonia> and as you've said you took the hard disk out, there is nothing wrong with grub
[09:42] <ikonia> so it must be either a.) you are mistaken b.) the pre-boot enviornment
[09:42] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: Do you have more than 1 disk?
[09:42] <breadmonster> ikonia: Well, GRUB doesn't boot that's for certain.
[09:42] <breadmonster> So it's the pre-boot environment.
[09:43] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: try sudo bash -c "http_proxy=http://168.63.24.174:8123 apt-get update"
[09:43] <KingOfOOP> EriC^: It's solved dude.
[09:43] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: If I where you I should backup the data, followed by the boot-repair. I've never had issues with it so far and it always solved my problems no matter what
[09:43] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: it's not solved man i told you first off you could uncheck it but it wouldn't update google chrome and google talk-plugins anymore
[09:44] <breadmonster> ikonia: So what should I do?
[09:44] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: you're like saying my windshield wipers are noisy, and i solved it, i removed them
[09:44] <KingOfOOP> EriC^: Can't i update them manually ??
[09:45] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: did you run the dualboot both on uefi or only W8.1 UEFI and ubuntu on Legancy?
[09:45] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: try the proxy
[09:46] <breadmonster> Hardcore7: if I recall correctly, I turned Secure Boot off.
[09:46] <breadmonster> How do I diagnose the problem?
[09:46] <breadmonster> But I think I had both on UEFI.
[09:46] <k1l_> breadmonster: one disk only?
[09:46] <breadmonster> Actually, no, Secure Boot is off.
[09:46] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: can you still boot in W8.1?
[09:46] <breadmonster> kll_: Yup, one HDD.
[09:46] <breadmonster> Hardcore7: Win8.1 is the only thing I can boot into off my HDD.
[09:46] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: i think google adds the ppa to install the talk plugins, i dont know if it lets you download a deb
[09:47] <k1l_> did you run something like boot repair from windows?
[09:47] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: how would you download anyway? your pc cant connect to it directly
[09:47] <Hardcore7> breadmonster: I would recommend boot-repair with a live cd, but you can also use easyBCD to add an ubuntu entry from windows
[09:47] <KingOfOOP> EriC^: By a .deb file form the Google site.
[09:48] <KingOfOOP> Not the search engine.
[09:48] <breadmonster> Hardcore7: Also, yeah, I recall I was running Ubuntu on UEFI.
[09:48] <KingOfOOP> I see some 404 errors
[09:48] <EriC^> KingOfOOP: i'm not sure how legal it is for you to do this, but if i were you and nobody will chop my head off, i would use a proxy and i guess you should find a good proxy and use it always
[09:49] <EriC^> i'm finding proxies online but they aren't lasting, there should be a good proxy or maybe vpn service or something, it would be great i guess
[09:50] <breadmonster> ikonia: Can I run boot-repair?
[09:50] <ikonia> breadmonster: it's up to you - I advise you not to blindly run it
[09:50] <breadmonster> ikonia: Do you have any alternative?
[09:51] <Hardcore7> ikonia: then what is your recomendation..?
[09:51] <ikonia> breadmonster: work the problem through, understand where the failure is
[09:51] <breadmonster> I'm a total PC n00b, so I don't know.
[09:51] <ikonia> you already have a strong pointer that it's the pre-boot enviornment
[09:51] <MACscr> i must be missing something, what else do i need to do when changing the /root/.foward email address to get the change to apply?
[09:51] <ikonia> MACscr: shouldn't be using /root
[09:52] <ikonia> MACscr: the root user is locked - so you shouldn't be using anything in /root
[09:52] <breadmonster> ikonia: Okay, so what do I do next?
[09:52] <MACscr> lol, huh? this is pretty common
[09:52] <ikonia> MACscr: no it's not
[09:53] <ikonia> breadmonster: work through the problem with someone
[09:59] <breadmonster> Will someone help me out with a slight problem?

[10:45] <RickyB98> it's one line, i'll paste it here..

[10:54] <RagingBuddha> I need a suggestion on how to do dual boot and divide the disks. I have 128 GB SSD and a 500 GB HDD. What I need Windows for is purely to run a few graphic softwares. Is is stupid to put Win on to SSD and Linux on HDD and thus slow my "every day" OS for the sake of speed when doing graphic stuff? I'm new to Ubuntu and it seems much quicker on regular HDD than Windows.
[10:54] <cfhowlett> RagingBuddha, OS's on the SSD, /home and data storage on the HDD
[10:56] <RagingBuddha> How much do I need to leave for Ubuntu on SSD? I think Windows 7 takes up about 30 GB if I remember correctly.
[10:56] <EriC^> RagingBuddha: 20gb would be good
[10:58] <RagingBuddha> If I split it in half, should be okey. Half for Win and graphics stuff and half for Ubuntu?
[10:58] <EriC^> RagingBuddha: yeah 60gb would be more than enough for ubuntu
[10:59] <EriC^> 30gb would be pretty great
[10:59] <RagingBuddha> Okay, thank you very much
[11:01] <EriC^> RagingBuddha: there's also swap if you want hibernation, it should be a bit more than your ram size
[11:01] <hjy> anyone know how to set up android studio in ubuntu 64 bit version?

[11:02] <Ben64> hjy: what are you trying to do
[11:02] <hjy> anyone can handle that?
[11:03] <jatt> sudo apt-get -f install

[11:03] <Ben64> hjy: that is not true
[11:04] <jatt> is fulul
[11:04] <jatt> full
[11:04] <telx85> tru :p
[11:04] <moldy> ubuntu 12.04.5. network-manager shows me my ethernet connections, but it does not let me configure them (i need to configure static ip addresses). why? what is required to be able to configure the network?
[11:04] <jatt> install ncdu and clean-upu
[11:04] <moldy> in /etc/network/interfaces, i don't have entries for the interfaces in question
[11:04] <ikonia> moldy: you shouldn't be looking in /etc/network/interfaces
[11:05] <ikonia> moldy: network manager is controlling your devices
[11:05] <moldy> ikonia: did you read my question?
[11:05] <ikonia> moldy: yes
[11:05] <moldy> ikonia: then you know that i only looked at that file to check if it is blocking nm
[11:05] <hjy> when I start android studio ,it says error while loading shared libraries:libstdc++.so.6
[11:05] <ikonia> moldy: so re-read what I said
[11:05] <telx85> but this command " du -ah / --exclude='/mnt/*' " shows that I only have 3.9GB used
[11:05] <moldy> ikonia: the question is: how can i do what you suggest?
[11:06] <hjy> so I try to install libstdc++6
[11:06] <moldy> ikonia: nm does not let me configure the interfaces.
[11:06] <EriC^> telx85: type sudo du -shx /
[11:06] <ikonia> moldy: not really a description "does not let me"
[11:06] <Ben64> hjy: where did you get it, how did you install it, what version of ubuntu are you on, what have you tried to install to make this work, where did you get the things you tried to install to make this work
[11:06] <moldy> ikonia: the "configure" button is disabled
[11:06] <moldy> ikonia: i can add new connections, but i cannot configure the existing ones.
[11:06] <telx85> @EriC^ = 3.8G /
[11:06] <ikonia> moldy: I normally see that with polkit problems
[11:07] <EriC^> telx85: type sudo du -shx /*
[11:07] <moldy> ikonia: this is a fresh installation, any idea where to look for polkit problems?
[11:07] <hjy> Ben64: I install android studio 1.1 on ubuntu14.04 64 bit version
[11:08] <Ben64> hjy: ok that was an answer to 1 of my 5 questions
[11:08] <ikonia> moldy: is it an eithernet or wireless card you are trying to configure ?
[11:09] <ikonia> moldy: here is a good example of what I'm talking about - however you'll need to apply this to your own situation http://askubuntu.com/questions/135787/gray-button-for-saving-editing-vpn-connection-in-ubuntu-12-04
[11:10] <ikonia> moldy: that does not mean it is the same problem as yours but policy kit is the most common cause of the situation you describe
[11:10] <moldy> ikonia: ethernet
[11:10] <hjy> I googled the error message,which it seems that on 64version, the adb needs 32 bit library,so I try to install libstdc++6

[11:10] <moldy> ikonia: thanks. i will take a look.
[11:10] <prashup> mine always crashes while it starts..
[11:10] <prashup> any clues ??
[11:11] <n30368> g
[11:11] <hjy> when I try to start adb it shows that libstdc++.so.6 is missing
[11:11] <cfhowlett> prashup, 13.04 is dead, end of life and not supported.  NOT supported.
[11:11] <KingOfOOP> hjy: try sudo apt-cahe search android, if there was a result, type the sudo apt-get install
[11:11] <prashup> i tweaked it for gnome..

[11:11] <EriC^> telx85: ok, type df -h
[11:11] <prashup> so updation to further versions seems hard
[11:11] <Ben64> hjy: you've got to answer all the questions
[11:11] <prashup> and cant even fresh install. got lots of data.. and configurations
[11:12] <KingOfOOP> sorry, apt-cache...
[11:12] <cfhowlett> prashup, it's easy ... OR you can continue to operate with no security updates or support.  choose wisely.

[11:14] <hjy> but kind of same error message
[11:14] <prashup> yeah seems fresh install is the option.
[11:14] <prashup> feel so lazy to even think about it

[11:17] <telx85> Anyone?
[11:18] <ikonia> telx85: why are you excluding /mnt
[11:18] <ikonia>  /mnt is hanging off /
[11:18] <jatt> run ncdu on / and delete big unused files
[11:19] <telx85> I only exclude it because I know that it is huge
[11:19] <ikonia> telx85: don't excluse it
[11:19] <ikonia> you're trying to evaluate with false data
[11:20] <telx85> the reason I exclude it is because it is an ISCSI initiator, so really it is just mounted to /mnt/backup
[11:20] <ikonia> telx85: there is still /mnt
[11:20] <ikonia> telx85: that hangs off your system
[11:20] <telx85> I can't run ncdu because I need to install it but I dont' have room :)
[11:20] <ikonia> telx85: have you expended this logical volume by any chance ?

[11:31] <ikonia> telx85: sort can do it
[11:31] <ikonia> pipe it into sort
[11:31] <jshanab> Ended support AND broke it by changing the server side.
[11:32] <telx85> ah I think I found the issue.
[11:32] <ikonia> excellent
[11:32] <telx85> I had a power out the other day
[11:32] <telx85> the synology nas must have gone down (it is the ISCSI maker thingy - don't konw the term)
[11:33] <telx85> I'm guessing that when I did a file transfer it just pushed it into the local file system rather then the mounted one?
[11:33] <telx85> does that make sense?
[11:33] <ikonia> telx85: it does
[11:33] <ikonia> telx85: good test is to unmount /mnt/backup
[11:33] <ikonia> telx85: and see if there is anything hidden under the mount point
[11:33] <peter100> the crash appears as some kind of kernel panic
[11:34] <telx85> ikonia: thanks mate, found it. With the target mounted I didn't realize, but with it unmounted it still was there.
[11:34] <peter100> even alt+ctrl+backspace doesnt kills xwindow after that

[11:50] <KingOfOOP> aeon-ltd: Yeah , not a big problem.
[11:51] <Hardcore7> then you need a key
[11:51] <Hardcore7> wait
[11:51] <Hardcore7> a key to verify their signature
[11:51] <Hardcore7> did you add the GPG public key properly?
[11:51] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: Are you talking about my problem ??
[11:52] <Hardcore7> yes
[11:52] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: sorry for not using your name
[11:52] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: Not a problem.
[11:52] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: What should i do now ??
[11:53] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: can you tell me what you are trying to install? and where you got it form?
[11:54] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: GNU GCC 4.9 and GNU g++ 4.9 From the software center.
[11:55] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: does this help you? https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2013-05/msg00086.html
[11:56] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: GNU GCC is the GNU C compiler and the GNU g++ is the GNU c++ compiler.
[11:56] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: the third ftp link will lead to the gpg key
[11:57] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: What does the gpg do ?
[11:58] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: What should i do with the gpg file ??
[11:59] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: I think it is the check to verify that the package was not modified
[11:59] <jatt> !gpg
[11:59] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: Should i open it , or what ??
[12:01] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: after downloading you will need to go to the file with terminal amd execute: gpg --verify --keyring ./gnu-keyring.gpg
[12:01] <Hardcore7> !ubuntu
[12:01] <Hardcore7> lol
[12:03] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: What should i type exactly ???
[12:04] <wildSalarian> Hi guys. Do someone know why my update manager and synaptic package manager only give me firefox 30.0 and an older flash-plugin ? It says its the newest one, but I know that there is firefox 35 and a newer flash plugin.
[12:05] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: I don't really know.. I can't help you I think
[12:05] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: did you do some research for the package you are trying to install?
[12:05] <wildSalarian> I did an apt-get update
[12:06] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: What kind of research ???
[12:06] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: the error you got
[12:06] <bazhang> !info firefox | wildSalarian
[12:06] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: do more people report that error?
[12:06] <bazhang> what version of ubuntu wildSalarian
[12:06] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: No. I didn't
[12:07] <wildSalarian> um an older one
[12:07] <bazhang> what version
[12:07] <wildSalarian> 13.10
[12:07] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: I think you should try that.. I'm a bit busy so..
[12:07] <theadmin> wildSalarian: Is ded
[12:07] <Hardcore7> KingOfOOP: sorry
[12:07] <theadmin> wildSalarian: This version is no longer supported and won't recieve any updates.
[12:07] <bazhang> !eolupgrades | wildSalarian
[12:07] <wildSalarian> oh, ok
[12:07] <bazhang> see the last link there wildSalarian
[12:08] <wildSalarian> can I update to the newest one without reinstalling the whole system?
[12:08] <Hardcore7> wildSalarian:  yes
[12:08] <bazhang> wildSalarian, yes of course
[12:08] <Hardcore7> wildSalarian: but make sure you are making an backup lol
[12:08] <theadmin> wildSalarian: Well you can upgrade to 12.04 and then to 14.04
[12:08] <theadmin> wildSalarian: 14.04 is an LTS release so stop after that.
[12:08] <bazhang> 13.10 theadmin
[12:08] <theadmin> LTS = longer support (5 years?)
[12:08] <wildSalarian> I am at a 13.10
[12:09] <theadmin> Oh.
[12:09] <theadmin> Then never mind, my bad
[12:09] <theadmin> wildSalarian: Just upgrade to 14.04
[12:09] <wildSalarian> which tool should I use? update manager?
[12:09] <theadmin> wildSalarian: And stay on that. LTS versions are supported longer (5 years instead of 9 months) and are generally more stable, from my experience anyways
[12:09] <theadmin> wildSalarian: Yes, the Update Manager should have a banner on the top saying that a new Ubuntu version is available
[12:10] <wildSalarian> Ok, thanks. Will try this.
[12:10] <martisj> upon logging in with ssh on my ubuntu box I see this message  "19 packages can be updated" do I need to update? Secondly should I do dist-upgrade or regular upgrade?
[12:11] <Hardcore7> martisj: for those you should use regular update
[12:11] <martisj> Hardcore7: even on a production system?
[12:11] <Hardcore7> martisj: dist-upgrade is mostlikely when upgrading kernel or to a newer version of ubuntu
[12:11] <KingOfOOP> Hardcore7: No problem.
[12:11] <Daekdroom> Hardcore7, martisj, some kernel upgrades require a dist-upgrade.
[12:11] <martisj> Hardcore7: aha thanks :)
[12:11] <Hardcore7> martisj: you can run them both without problems
[12:12] <Daekdroom> And it NEVER upgrades to a newer version of Ubuntu, unless it's a point release (12.04.3, 12.04.4, etc)
[12:12] <martisj> Hardcore7: thanks
[12:12] <martisj> apt-get upgrade right?
[12:12] <martisj> and secondly how can I see what will get upgraded?
[12:13] <theadmin> martisj: It will ask you to confirm before updating.
[12:13] <Daekdroom> It should show you and ask to confirm before proceeding, martisj
[12:13] <Hardcore7> martisj: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[12:13] <theadmin> martisj: And list the packages.
[12:13] <martisj> theadmin: sweet!
[12:14] <Hardcore7> martisj: you will need to press Y before it starts upgrading, please notice that some updates may require to resolve dependencies and may sometimes ask to remove another package, be very careful with that situation
[12:14] <prashup> hi can anybody help me with
[12:14] <prashup> finding an aws channel ?
[12:14] <Hardcore7> prashup: sup?
[12:15] <Hardcore7> prashup: what do you mean by aws?
[12:15] <bazhang> !alis | prashup
[12:15] <martisj> Hardcore7: Right, how would I handle a situation where a package will be removed?
[12:15] <prashup> thanks
[12:15] <martisj> And what could be a worstcase scenario when updating?
[12:15] <prashup> !alis | aws
[12:15] <Hardcore7> martisj: look carefully at which packages will be removed, you will never want to remove something like xorg or nvidia / amd, those stuff
[12:15] <bazhang>  /msg alis list aws   <----- prashup
[12:15] <sammy> hey
[12:16] <prashup> sorry
[12:16] <Hardcore7> martisj: but I don't think you will get anything like that in your case - worstcase scenario is booting in a TTY
[12:16] <Hardcore7> martisj: meaning that a graphic driver is not correctly configured anymore because of the removal for example
[12:19] <martisj> I see this is not ubuntu server
[12:19] <martisj> my bad
[12:19] <martisj> Sorry
[12:19] <Hardcore7> martisj: ?
[12:19] <bazhang>  /join #ubuntu-server martisj
[12:20] <martisj> Hardcore7: my questions earlier referred to an ubuntu server
[12:20] <martisj> bazhang: thanks
[12:20] <Hardcore7> martisj: hmm, doesn't really make a difference at your answer :)
[12:21] <martisj> Hardcore7: graphic drivers and such aren't really an issue on my server as SSH is the only way I interact with it
[12:21] <Hardcore7> martisj: I see, then you are safe to update & dist-upgrade
[12:22] <martisj> I did an update upgrade
[12:25] <cfhowlett> martisj, dis upgrade and upgrade are not the same
[12:26] <bazhang> !dist-upgrade | martisj
[12:42] <Haffe> Hi. I'm following the official ubuntu server guide to get openLDAP up and running.
[12:43] <Haffe> The first example "sudo ldapsearch -Q -LLL -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -b cn=config dn" just gives me an error ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Can't contact LDAP server (-1) What is up here?
[12:44] <wildSalarian> Hi again. I'm on 13.10 and my update-manager ist not giving me the option to upgrade to a new version. Is there a way to force the upgrade check or something?
[12:45] <bazhang> wildSalarian, did you check the eolupgrades link?
[12:45] <Bundestrojaner> hello, I've blocked an URL by writing 127.0.0.1 <url> in /etc/hosts. How can i apply the chance?
[12:45] <Bundestrojaner> nslookup <url> still returns the correct url instead of 127.0.0.1
[12:45] <EriC^^>  /j #archlinux
[12:46] <Hardcore7> Bundestrojaner: did you reopen the browser?
[12:46] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades  wildSalarian this link
[12:46] <Hardcore7> Bundestrojaner: newver mind, I see what you did there - tried restarting?
[12:46] <Hardcore7> never*
[12:46] <hateball> Bundestrojaner: it's likely cached in dnsmasq so you'll need to restart networking
[12:47] <Bundestrojaner> Hardcore7, hateball: it works. nslookup ignores hosts and asks the nameserver anyway it seems
[12:47] <Bundestrojaner> the blocked url is no longer accesable
[12:47] <Bundestrojaner> thx and sry
[12:47] <Dr-007> hello there, is there a way to test which files get executed by cron under a specific user account?
[12:48] <Hardcore7> Bundestrojaner: good job ;)
[12:48] <Dr-007> (crontab config files) it seems me /etc/crontab isnt getting launced
[12:48] <Hardcore7> Dr-007: I tought It should be possible to force run a cronjob to test if it works correctly
[12:48] <Hardcore7> !cronjob | Dr-007
[12:49] <hateball> Bundestrojaner: yeah, but on ubuntu now the default nameserver is dnsmasq on localhost, which is why I suggested it could have been cached there. anyhow, good it works
[12:49] <Hardcore7> !cron | Dr-007
[12:49] <EriC^^> Dr-007: type crontab -u <user> -l
[12:49] <EriC^^> Dr-007: /var/log/syslog should list what's being executed
[12:50] <Dr-007> thanks
[12:51] <Bundestrojaner> hateball: i use kubuntu 14.04 lts, dnsmasq seems not to be installed
[12:53] <Dr-007> EriC^^: the crontab is empty tho. my contents of /etc/crontab isn't inthere. is there an option to print out the location of the saved crontab -e / -l file?
[12:53] <hateball> Bundestrojaner: not using NetworkManager?
[12:54] <EriC^^> Dr-007: user cron's aren't saved in /etc/crontab those run the cron.daily cron.weekly etc. tabs
[12:54] <EriC^^> Dr-007: user cron's are in /var/spool/cron
[12:54] <Bundestrojaner> hateball: apt-get didn't told me it would be already installed
[12:55] <hateball> Bundestrojaner: is this a new install or upgraded?
[12:55] <hateball> Bundestrojaner: I personally don't think you're missing out on not having it anyhow :p
[12:56] <Dr-007> EriC^^: thank you good sir
[12:56] <EriC^^> Dr-007: no problem

[13:19] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[13:24] <MonkeyDust> hi BluesKaj
[13:25] <BluesKaj> hey MonkeyDust
[13:44] <leeyaa> hello
[13:44] <EriC^^> hello
[13:44] <leeyaa> how to print number of security updates. /usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check --human-readable doesnt seem to work everywhere
[13:45] <leeyaa> i need to print only number of security updates
[13:54] <maxvi> where I can find "Snapping Windows" in dconf editor? http://www.linuxnov.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/CCSM-Compiz-config-settings-manager-precise-screenshot.png
[13:56] <Hobbitfrofo> hi guys i have this problem .. any help ?  http://postimg.org/image/5vpvasxml/
[13:56] <leeyaa> is it normal ubuntu server default install, fresh, not to have dbus installed ?
[13:57] <k1l> leeyaa: dbus is dekstop related
[13:57] <leeyaa> k1l: well i needed it for /usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check
[13:58] <leeyaa> is there other way to check number of security updates available ?
[13:58] <k1l> isnt that the gui update checker for unity?
[13:58] <leeyaa> i have no idea. i have it in most 14.04 LTS servers
[13:58] <yuhang> 这个怎么用？
[13:58] <leeyaa> well all except one
[13:59] <k1l> !cn | yuhang
[13:59] <leeyaa> k1l: any alternative for console ?
[13:59] <k1l> http://askubuntu.com/questions/49958/how-to-find-the-number-of-packages-needing-update-from-the-command-line
[14:00] <k1l> or script the output from apt-get update etc etc etc. there might be tons of ways
[14:01] <leeyaa> cat /var/lib/update-notifier/updates-available gives nothing
[14:01] <leeyaa> i need only security updates
[14:01] <k1l> it does on my ubuntu server
[14:02] <leeyaa> doesnt work nowhere here ;p
[14:02] <leeyaa> anywhere*
[14:02] <k1l> so what systems are they exactly?
[14:03] <yuhang> where is here?
[14:03] <leeyaa> some dont even have that directory
[14:03] <leeyaa> k1l: all are 14.04 LTS
[14:04] <k1l> leeyaa: my too
[14:04] <leeyaa> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9956819/
[14:04] <k1l> leeyaa: that should work since its used by the motd to display that stuff when logging in per ssh
[14:04] <leeyaa> some servers dont have mptd enabled
[14:05] <leeyaa> motd*
[14:05] <k1l> so that is not installed or removed then
[14:05] <leeyaa> probably not installed, its minimal xen domU
[14:05] <leeyaa> but why the heck apt-check works
[14:07] <yuhang> don't understand
[14:07] <k1l> !info update-notifier-common trusty
[14:07] <k1l> leeyaa: install that
[14:07] <Caleb--> hi, my home directory is a symbolic link, and when i launch the terminal, it shows the absolute path to the home dir instead of showing just the tilde "~". when i do "cd" then it shows the tilde. any idea why?
[14:08] <Caleb--> or "cd $HOME"
[14:08] <leeyaa> thanks k1l
[14:09] <ovrflw0x> hello, why do the fonts in "Files" browser become "thin" sometimes and become "OK" sometimes on random "boots"!
[14:09] <EriC^^> Caleb--: why is your home a symbolic link? why aren't you mounting it?
[14:10] <Caleb--> EriC^^, it's a folder in another partition. i used to bind mount it, but that gave me some other problems.
[14:11] <jost> Hi! Can someone tell me, how  the command "mt" behaves, if something goes wrong? For example, if there is no tape in the device, or the tape produces "bandsalat"? I don't have a tape device here to test it
[14:11] <ovrflw0x> hello, why do the fonts in "Files" browser become "thin" sometimes and become "OK" sometimes on random "boots"! anybody?
[14:12] <`hypermist`> what is an ISO. burning tool for ubuntu ?
[14:13] <k1l> `hypermist`: its a file.
[14:13] <`hypermist`> k1l, what ?
[14:14] <k1l> `hypermist`: its an image taken from a cd. or an image build to be burned onto a cd (or a usb drive)
[14:14] <`hypermist`> yea
[14:14] <`hypermist`> But got a tool that i can burn it to the USB with
[14:15] <Pici> `hypermist`: I think your period in the middle of the sentence is confusing us.
[14:15] <`hypermist`> but what *
[14:15] <`hypermist`> Pici, that mabye the case
[14:15] <k1l> `hypermist`: what iso?
[14:15] <`hypermist`> SteamOS iso file. i need a .ISO burner for ubuntu so i can burn it to a USB
[14:16] <k1l> `hypermist`: ubuntu got the usb-creator for that. or unetbootin. for ubuntu .isos you can use "dd"
[14:16] <Pici> `hypermist`: unetbootin may be able to handle it.
[14:16] <MonkeyDust> `hypermist`  startup disk creator, or
[14:16] <MonkeyDust> or unetbootin
[14:17] <`hypermist`> ty Mongey_

[14:24] <Hardcore7> hypermist I think I know what you want to say xD
[14:25] <dmtarmey> Pici ?
[14:25] <Hardcore7> Dr-007: can't really research a good track because I'm at work xD
[14:25] <`hypermist`> Hardcore7, :D
[14:25] <Pici> dmtarmey: That wasn't for you, just for general knowledge.  If #ubuntu can't help you ##linux may be able to
[14:26] <pragmaticenigma> dmtarmey, There are many different types of distrobutions of Linux. Can you be more specific on the distro you are trying to install
[14:26] <pragmaticenigma> !offtopic | `hypermist`, Hardcore7, Dr-007
[14:26] <EriC^^> Caleb--: open ~/.bashrc and add at the bottom if [ $PWD = "/data/home/ubuntu/caleb" ]; then cd $HOME; fi
[14:26] <`hypermist`> tyvm for that ping xD
[14:26] <dmtarmey> latest ubuntu but got real issues with running it through my 40" samsung tv
[14:27] <pragmaticenigma> dmtarmey, you're in the right place then. can you describe the issue you having with connecting your computer to the TV?
[14:27] <MonkeyDust> dmtarmey  "latest"... 14.10 or 15.04 ?
[14:27] <leeyaa> k1l: any other method to check packages? update-notifier requires way too much crap
[14:27] <leeyaa> actually wait
[14:28] <leeyaa> i lied, i should install common
[14:28] <dmtarmey> 14.04 MonkeyDust
[14:28] <king313> Hi. I am trying to install Ubuntu with the next configuration, but I am a little lost about how to do it
[14:29] <Caleb--> EriC^^, that did the trick, thanks! :D
[14:29] <eFomg> hello
[14:29] <king313> I have a SSD drive, one normal drive of 1Tb (for /home) and other of 2Tb (for /home/user/data). I am in the installing screen but I do not know how to setup this
[14:29] <Caleb--> EriC^^, i wonder what's causing the expansion of the symlink...
[14:29] <dmtarmey> MonkeyDustb 14.10
[14:30] <EriC^^> Caleb--: must be how bash handles setting PS1 in .bashrc
[14:30] <dmtarmey> MonkeyDust ?
[14:31] <dmtarmey> pragmaticenigma ?
[14:32] <MonkeyDust> dmtarmey  what happens when you try
[14:32] <EriC^^> Caleb--: i guess it's cause it thinks your home is /home/caleb, but when it gets the PWD it's getting the long one so it doesn't know it's your home and set ~
[14:32] <EriC^^> Caleb--: if i type HOME=bla it changes my ~ to /home/e
[14:32] <Hardcore7> !online
[14:33] <Hardcore7> is there a command to see how long you have been in the chat?
[14:33] <EriC^^> Caleb--: if you set your $HOME to the long one i guess it could also work, but i dont know which would be better and less error prone
[14:33] <dmtarmey> first of all my son broke my laptop, i pulled it appart and reapired the break, but in doing so i may have broke the Window 8 and the screen, so i connected it to my 40" samsung tv and installed ubuntu but it doisnt like the nvidea graphics card
[14:34] <k1l> Hardcore7: /msg nickserv info Hardcore7
[14:34] <pragmaticenigma> there is not, Hardcore7, ubottu is a macro bot for support topics only
[14:34] <Caleb--> EriC^^, yeah it does seem to work. but i'd rather leave HOME as is
[14:34] <EriC^^> Caleb--: yeah i think so too
[14:35] <Caleb--> thanks for the help :)
[14:35] <Hardcore7> k1l: it doesn't work :/
[14:35] <EriC^^> Caleb--: no problem :)
[14:35] <k1l> Hardcore7: ah well, you are not a registered user
[14:35] <dmtarmey> Monkey Dust when i install ubuntu i first have to re size the scrren to fit, then when i re start the machine it dosnt load properly keeps goinf big and all sort of wear stuff
[14:36] <Hardcore7> k1l: ah, ok thanks ;)
[14:36] <k1l> Hardcore7: else, look when the timestamps started.
[14:37] <pragmaticenigma> Hardcore7, you have been signed in since Fri Jan 30 02:51:44
[14:37] <Hardcore7> pragmaticenigma: how do you know that?
[14:38] <pragmaticenigma> I have no idea if that is my localtime, yours or UTC
[14:38] <MonkeyDust> dmtarmey  ok, but i'm not familiar with nvidia, maybe someone esle can help
[14:38] <dmtarmey> Monkey Dust i tried saarching and finding fixes for the nvida drive but when i did it it got worse
[14:38] <Hardcore7> pragmaticenigma: I think it's the server localtime
[14:38] <dmtarmey> anyone familier with nvidia graphics card problems on ubuntu ??????????????????
[14:39] <k1l> dmtarmey: what ubuntu? what nvidia card? what driver? answer as exact as possible
[14:39] <Caleb--> EriC^^, there is one issue on my TODO list since i moved to Ubuntu from Windows, maybe you know something about collations?
[14:39] <pragmaticenigma> !patience | dmtarmey
[14:40] <dmtarmey> cheers will try to learn the fruits of the spirit Patients
[14:40] <pragmaticenigma> dmtarmey, you may need to come back later when someone knows more about installing nvidia drivers and troubleshooting them
[14:40] <Caleb--> EriC^^, you see, when you sort files in windows, files that start with an underscore appear before other files. i used to start dir names with _ so that they appear on top of the list. but linux uses different collations, and none of them behave this way
[14:41] <dmtarmey> when would you suggest
[14:41] <k1l> dmtarmey: see my last message please
[14:42] <dmtarmey> ok GT540M
[14:42] <EriC^^> Caleb--: you mean in ls ?
[14:42] <k1l> dmtarmey: ok, 1 ou of 3 very important answers. so i cant help :(
[14:43] <Hardcore7> im off, cya guys
[14:43] <jxshxx> A few weeks back I lost the icon to minimize windows.  Now I've lost the icons for minimized windows in the tool bar.  Both problems occurred after boot.  Need some direction to resolve, please.
[14:43] <dmtarmey> kll how do i get the driver number pls ?
[14:44] <EriC^^> Caleb--: ah i see, it doesn't take _ into consideration
[14:44] <k1l> dmtarmey: did you install one?
[14:44] <Caleb--> EriC^^, yes, i found some guy on archforums that asked about similar issues: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=77358
[14:45] <pragmaticenigma> k1l, you may have to help dmtarmey find that information. it is likely he only installed ubuntu and hasn't done any customizations. likely they're running the default FOSS version
[14:45] <dmtarmey> kll just checking what one i installed be back in min
[14:45] <k1l> pragmaticenigma: yes, that is what i try to find out. if he did not install a driver its using the open source
[14:46] <dmtarmey> i have got into terminal so can check if you know what i need to write
[14:46] <Caleb--> EriC^^, that guy was talking about brackets though [], and not the underscore, but the issue is similar
[14:46] <Caleb--> EriC^^, from what I understand I'll have to create a custom collation and re-arrange it the way i want to
[14:47] <k1l> dmtarmey: "lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use'"
[14:48] <dmtarmey> kll i have a messed up version running on my system at moment and i tried to install the linux verion for nvidia but now my hole screen is messed up
[14:48] <EriC^^> Caleb--: i see
[14:48] <Dr-007> sometimes i hate myself for not looking good enough in the logfiles...  cron[31627]: (root) ERROR (Missing newline before EOF, this crontab file will be ignored)
[14:48] <k1l> dmtarmey: ok, so can you please tell the real story?  not just one bit every time i ask?
[14:48] <BluesKaj> dmtarmey, open additional drivers in the run command , look for the recommended driver
[14:49] <jatt> Dr-007: try to edit crontabs with crontab -e
[14:50] <BluesKaj> dmtarmey, or in the terminal/TTY, software-properties-gtk --open-tab=4
[14:50] <k1l> dmtarmey: we cant know what you are running, what you did and what you see as errormessages. so the more and detailed you explain the better we can help you
[14:50] <Dr-007> jatt: it gets generated via a script
[14:50] <Dr-007> jatt: but when debugging, i only focussed on the tail section of the logfiles
[14:51] <Dr-007> works now, i'm happy
[14:51] <Karizmaa> lş.
[14:51] <Karizmaa> hi
[14:52] <dmtarmey> kll im going to re install ubuntu into live os as i cant see anythink on this screen as it is massive and off the screeen ill be back soon lol daz
[15:00] <gtrmtx> hey guys. so im working inside my apache2.conf file and i have several password protected directories...i have it working requiring user A but i want to add a master pw that works in all sections...how do i iterate require user A or user B?
[15:01] <MonkeyDust> gtrmtx  is that a server? if yes, there's also #ubuntu-server
[15:01] <gtrmtx> yes thank you
[15:03] <MortezaE> Hello, Were is ~/.gnome2/gedit in Ubuntu 14.04 ? I want to install some plugins
[15:03] <MortezaE> *Where
[15:06] <MonkeyDust> MortezaE  it's in ~/.gnome2/gedit/
[15:06] <MortezaE> OK, Google in nice :) /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gedit/plugins/ for package-installed plugins, and ~/.local/share/gedit/plugins/ for manually installed.
[15:06] <pragmaticenigma> gtrmtx, there is also an #apache help room too
[15:06] <MortezaE> MonkeyDust, I didn't find such a folder. so i should create it?
[15:06] <Marsuaz> Hello, I've a problem with "scp", I don't which channel to use, but since I'm using Ubuntu, I'm asking here... Here's my problem: http://pastebin.com/2WpnzSzx
[15:08] <exactingpenguin> Hey, does anyone have any suggestions regarding a video card issue I'm having? I just installed 14.04 next to Windows on a Dell Inspiron 17r 5737, and the colors on my screen look bad and low depth (Pic: https://drive.google.com/folder/d/0B5JVeramRd-zU1lQeGt6YXJCajQ/edit). It works fine in Windows, and HDMI output looks fine too. Booting without kernel-mode-setting fixes the colors, but then I lose hardware acceleration.
[15:09] <Artemis3> Marsuaz, did you try escaping with " instead?
[15:09] <pragmaticenigma> Marsuaz, you may have better results using SFTP instead of SCP. With SFTP you can log into the remote system and navigate to the file you wish to download. Once you find the file you can use the GET command to download
[15:09] <MonkeyDust> Marsuaz  try /\IS
[15:10] <MonkeyDust> Marsuaz  try /\Is
[15:10] <lotuspsychje> exactingpenguin: what driver loaded plz?
[15:10] <Marsuaz> Artemis3: yes, only on the folder with spaces
[15:10] <Artemis3> Marsuaz, no the whole path
[15:11] <Marsuaz> Artemis3: I'm trying
[15:11] <lotuspsychje> exactingpenguin: and wich graphics card chipset?
[15:11] <MonkeyDust> Marsuaz  do you use [tab] to complete the path? it should add the required back/slaches
[15:11] <Artemis3> Marsuaz, also lose the ~ just in case
[15:12] <exactingpenguin> Lotuspsychje: its the Intel i915 driver
[15:12] <exactingpenguin> Lotuspsychje: the card is an Intel HD 4400
[15:12] <lotuspsychje> exactingpenguin: did you install 14.04 with internet/updates enabled during setup?
[15:12] <Artemis3> else just go with ftp or a file manager
[15:12] <Artemis3> sftp
[15:12] <Marsuaz> Artemis3: it's working. thank you.
[15:13] <Marsuaz> MonkeyDust: no I don't
[15:13] <Artemis3> ok
[15:13] <exactingpenguin> Lotuspsychje: yes, and I installed the Intel driver installer
[15:13] <Marsuaz> pragmaticenigma: I might try that, but isnt it less straight forward than scp?
[15:13] <Artemis3> MonkeyDust, can't auto complete remote paths
[15:13] <MonkeyDust> true
[15:14] <lotuspsychje> exactingpenguin: hmm, maybe check logs for any weird screen errors?
[15:14] <MonkeyDust> Marsuaz  create a similar folder locally, use [tab] to complete the path to it, then learn how to type it
[15:14] <exactingpenguin> Lotuspsychje: thanks, I'll check them out, where are they? I'm totally new to Linux
[15:15] <lotuspsychje> exactingpenguin: you can find interesting logs at /var/log/syslog and dmesg in terminal
[15:15] <lotuspsychje> exactingpenguin: or the log viewer icon from your programs
[15:17] <exactingpenguin> Lotuspsychje: thanks!
[15:17] <daftykins> exactingpenguin: fwiw, running the intel driver installer is a mistake
[15:18] <exactingpenguin> Daftykins: should I uninstall it?
[15:19] <daftykins> you were here last night right?
[15:19] <daftykins> we've been over this
[15:19] <daftykins> those pics are too low quality to tell what's up, too
[15:20] <exactingpenguin> daftykins: yeah that was me, this will be my permanent name
[15:20] <OerHeks> driver from that 01.org site?
[15:21] <exactingpenguin> Daftykins: I tested the 14.1 version of Ubuntu and had the same problem btw
[15:21] <kaikas> Hi. My X is loading GLX and NV-GLX but my freeglut program tells me Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0" and freeglut (./main): OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display ':0'. Any ideas?
[15:21] <daftykins> 14.10 - it's important to include 0's in ubuntu versions
[15:22] <OerHeks> kaikas, do those messages appear when you start from comandline?
[15:22] <kaikas> OerHeks: Yes.
[15:23] <exactingpenguin> daftykins: whoops haha, still learning
[15:23] <OerHeks> kaikas, then they are just messages, not errors.
[15:23] <OerHeks> linux spawns a lot of messages, confusing i know.
[15:24] <king313> hi guys, how I am supposed to reenable control+alt+f1 (for example) login screens?
[15:24] <king313> I need to install something with X closed and I am unable to do it without them
[15:24] <kaikas> OerHeks: Sadly the program never reaches my printf, so i assume that something is wrong.
[15:25] <ppf> king313: how did you disable that in the firtst place
[15:25] <king313> I did not disabled it
[15:25] <king313> it's not enabled by default in my ubuntu 14.04 fresh installation
[15:25] <daftykins> king313: let me guess, nvidia drivers?
[15:25] <king313> yes
[15:26] <king313> and that's what I am trying to install :)
[15:26] <daftykins> you shouldn't really use manually downloaded ones
[15:26] <daftykins> you've tried F2 through F6 i take it?
[15:26] <ppf> why shouldn't you?
[15:26] <king313> Yes, I've tried from F1 to F6, and from F8 to F12
[15:26] <daftykins> because over the years they've had habits of failing to rebuild modules on kernel upgrades
[15:26] <king313> daftykins, what alternative do you recommend? xorg-edgers?
[15:27] <OerHeks> daftykins +1
[15:27] <daftykins> yes, that's one idea
[15:27] <daftykins> they have a ~346 driver
[15:27] <kaikas> OerHeks: Am running a Tesla K40C and need to pass something through OpenGL to OpenCL. Therefore i need OpenGL, but freeglut fails.
[15:28] <king313> I am a little bit scared of the chance of introducing some instability in my computer
[15:28] <daftykins> king313: welcome to proprietary drivers
[15:28] <king313> I would love something like ubuntu-x-swat but they seems a little bit outdated
[15:29] <daftykins> king313: the other option is boot with nomodeset as a one time thing, then you can drop to TTY to install... then reboot manually
[15:29] <king313> So, your opinion: could xorg-edgers make my computer flaky?
[15:30] <daftykins> that's a decision for you. it's not like they can't be reversed
[15:30] <k1l> king313: do you want a working driver or a maybe unstable but latest video driver?
[15:31] <kaikas> Do i still need to install nvidia-glx or do the nvidia drivers ship that all nowadays? Information in the web seems to be pretty old considering GLX and freeglut.
[15:31] <king313> I just want other opinions since mine is not expert enought. I am not going to blame you whatever the result :)
[15:31] <king313> k1l, the current driver only allows me to use one screen
[15:31] <daftykins> king313: what card is this for anyway?
[15:31] <king313> MSI 750Ti OC
[15:31] <daftykins> ok, so you can't use official ubuntu repo drivers anyway
[15:31] <k1l> kaikas: what video card?
[15:32] <daftykins> the 750 Ti doesn't work with <340 afaik
[15:32] <kaikas> k1l: Tesla K40C
[15:32] <king313> Nvidia lastest official drivers release is 340.76
[15:32] <king313> Do not know which one I have installed
[15:32] <daftykins> so check
[15:32] <daftykins> dpkg -l | grep nvidia
[15:33] <k1l> kaikas: i would have said: nvidia-current or nvidia-$drivernumber ships all you need. but i am not sure for special cards
[15:34] <daftykins> i don't even think a Tesla is supported by desktop drivers 0o
[15:34] <king313> Oh. Nothings appears. lspci does recognize it as NVIDIA Corporation GM107 [GeForce GTX 750Ti] rev a2
[15:35] <kaikas> k1l: Maybe they excluded it, since there is no physical connection on thos cards? But normally GLX is just in the driver package, right?
[15:35] <king313> It's weird that the installation does not downloaded nvidia by default. I enabled propietary drivers download.
[15:35] <k1l> kaikas: yes. like i said it ships all a regular video card from nvidia needs
[15:36] <king313> Should I try installing nvidia-current?
[15:36] <kaikas> k1l: Okay, thanks. Just wanted to make sure.
[15:36] <daftykins> king313: no, it won't work
[15:36] <daftykins> -current is rubbish as it just installs 304
[15:36] <king313> Thanks for saving me time. Going for edgers then.
[15:37] <k1l> king313: what ubuntu?
[15:37] <dmtarmey> hi i have lost my wifi connection on a advent when installing ubuntu 140;10 any ideas ?
[15:37] <king313> ubuntu 14.04
[15:38] <k1l> king313: nvidia-331 is the latest in the 14.04 repos
[15:38] <daftykins> i don't think the -331 supports king313's 750 Ti
[15:38] <king313> Im talking from my ignorance, but didn't nvidia needed 340?
[15:38] <king313> s/nvidia/nvidia gtx 750 ti
[15:39] <k1l> yes, that is what i am saying. you need some PPA because you card is to new for 14.04
[15:39] <daftykins> king313: go and install it already, jeez
[15:39] <daftykins> well that's great and all k1l -but we've been over all that already :)
[15:39] <OerHeks> nvidia 334 and up for that TI 750
[15:40] <k1l> yes, didnt mean to confuse. more like acknowledge
[15:40]  * daftykins gently pushes king313 out the door, instructions in hand
[15:42] <king313> Im going xorg-edgers way. nvidia-current package or 340 one?
[15:42] <daftykins> they don't have a package called nvidia-current
[15:42] <daftykins> read their package list :P
[15:42] <king313> sorry for the big stupid question.
[15:44] <king313> Going for nvidia-graphics-drivers-340  as it's the same main version that the one downloadable from nvidia website
[15:45] <OerHeks> king313, really, what do you want to prove with that 340 question, as you card is supported by 334 and up?
[15:46] <daftykins> said user is imagining it will be more stable for matching the website's official latest
[15:46] <daftykins> or potentially non-beta
[15:46] <BluesKaj> king313, yes but downloading the 340 from nvidia doesn't provide updates/upgrades from the repos, your website downloaded driver will break the next time there's driver upgrade from the repos
[15:46] <king313> OerHeks, just docummenting my steps in case im going to do something blantantly wrong
[15:47] <king313> OerHeks, and my mental process was the one that daftykins described
[15:47] <daftykins> i'm in your head.
[15:48]  * king313 becomes a little scared
[15:48] <king313> Lastest version for the device, more bugfixes for it
[15:51] <BluesKaj> king313, have you seen this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2252908
[15:56] <root> that's one hell of a users list right there
[15:56] <daftykins> you shouldn't really be running IRC as root, Guest77337
[15:56] <Guest77337> nope
[15:56] <Guest77337> just noticed that
[15:57] <miphix_> ha
[15:57] <miphix_> i was like, wait a second. i'm still in root
[15:58] <miphix_> thanks for the friendly nic change btw

[16:00] <miphix_> you guys familiar with a way to black list upnp rather than blocking OUTPUT -s 239.0.0.0/8 -j DROP?
[16:00] <cromagi> Can someone help me please?
[16:00] <king313> BluesKaj, I didn't saw it. I am opting for installing drivers from xorg-edgers
[16:00] <miphix_> sup cromagi
[16:01] <cfhowlett> !ask | cromagi
[16:01] <daftykins> cromagi: not until you ask a question
[16:01] <miphix_> what do you have brewing overe there
[16:01] <miphix_> lol
[16:01] <miphix_> !patience
[16:01] <miphix_> !patience
[16:01] <miphix_> just checking if it was a script
[16:01] <daftykins> miphix_: stop abusing the bot please.
[16:01] <cromagi> I have ubuntu 14.04 lts and its a desktop NOT A LAPTOP. I have a wireless wifi chip put into the pc. Windows uses it just fine but for some reason it wont work in ubuntu
[16:01] <BluesKaj> king313, well, good luck , edgers aren't known for stable support
[16:01] <miphix_> just checking
[16:01] <miphix_> sorry
[16:02] <miphix_> :)
[16:02] <cromagi> So how do you get a wireless router working in ubuntu?
[16:02] <miphix_> oh i see how it all started
[16:02] <miphix_> still kinda new to irc
[16:02] <king313> BluesKaj, that was I was afraid of, but it seems that installing the binary ones can give me conflicts at upgrading
[16:02] <king313> (im not an expert, so maybe im wrong)
[16:03] <jhutchins> cromagi: You just want to connect, or you want to set it up as a router/ap?
[16:03] <king313> daftykins, just installed the drivers and rebooted. both screens work now flawless. Thanks!
[16:03] <cromagi> I want wifi to work on it :P
[16:03] <daftykins> king313: yay, however in that time i could've installed 100 ubuntu PCs ;)
[16:04] <miphix_> can't you search for the chipset and google it?
[16:04] <miphix_> like typing in lspci and taking the chipset id
[16:04] <cromagi> me? miphix_
[16:04] <king313> daftykins, I also received a salsa dancer friend and have a small talk meanwhile
[16:04] <miphix_> i was asking in addition to your question
[16:04] <miphix_> i havae the same issue with mine
[16:05] <cromagi> That was my first step
[16:05] <miphix_> the manufacturer created a driver for linux for mine, but, they gave up after kernel 2.2 or something
[16:05] <jhutchins> cromagi: dmesg | less, look for relevant messages.
[16:05] <cromagi> put that in my terminal?
[16:05] <miphix_> yeah
[16:05] <jhutchins> cromagi: Yes.
[16:05] <miphix_> more or less
[16:05] <miphix_> xD
[16:06] <miphix_> such a bad joke in a serious room, i know
[16:06] <cromagi> ok , what now? jhutchins
[16:06] <jhutchins> miphix_: It's pretty common for multiple conversation threads to happen here, using the nic helps keep them clearer.  Tab completion of nicks is helpful.
[16:07] <miphix_> indeed
[16:07] <miphix_> cromagi: look for relevent information involving your wifi card
[16:07] <jhutchins> cromagi: dmesg dumps the kernel message ring buffer - dmesg | less, look for messages related to your chipset.
[16:07] <cromagi> ok
[16:10] <miphix_> Does any one have any suggestions on reading material/manuals on reading the output of dmesg?
[16:10] <piv> what is the best way to change the dns server being used? this is a server, so no network manager
[16:10] <miphix_> or how to fathom the logs
[16:10] <miphix_> they look about the same
[16:11] <cromagi> i found intel network driver in the list jhutchins
[16:12] <cromagi> what do i do?
[16:12] <miphix_> what does it say?
[16:13] <cromagi> nothing i ust have a list of drivers
[16:13] <RagingBuddha> Can I somehow remove sidebar in Ubuntu and use Docky as program launcher?
[16:13] <miphix_> RagingBuddha: is it linux?
[16:14] <RagingBuddha> It's ... Ubuntu, so yes.
[16:14] <miphix_> that's your answer
[16:14] <miphix_> the how part
[16:14] <miphix_> i don't know
[16:14] <miphix_> xD
[16:14] <cromagi> Miphix
[16:14] <miphix_> yeah cromagi
[16:14] <destro-> hi everyone, i was curious if anyone knows if a backported natty patch is out there for libc6?
[16:14] <cromagi> Is ubuntu ever going to read my network thing? lol
[16:14] <miphix_> yes
[16:15] <cromagi> how?
[16:15] <miphix_> unless it's really old
[16:15] <cromagi> 10 years old
[16:15] <cromagi> maybe more
[16:15] <miphix_> ok one sec
[16:15] <miphix_> i'm on the same issue with my tower
[16:15] <cromagi> want the name?
[16:15] <cromagi> of my adapter?
[16:16] <miphix_> can any one in the room give me a URL to a website that hosts a database on chipset information and related
[16:16] <miphix_> no no
[16:16] <miphix_> i'll help you learn to fish
[16:16] <miphix_> just toss you a fish and starve tomarrow?
[16:16] <jhutchins> cromagi: WE were hoping to see if there were messages about your adapter in the dmesg buffer.  They might say what it's looking for like firmware or driver or something.
[16:17] <jhutchins> cromagi: If lspci -nn describes it correctly the kernel at least knows what it is and probably has the right driver.
[16:17] <miphix_> jhutchins: i have the same issue as he does. however, lspci recognizes and doesn ot handle the device
[16:17] <miphix_> -nn you say?
[16:18] <miphix_> or just n?
[16:18] <Laurenceb___> hi
[16:18] <miphix_> hi
[16:18] <Laurenceb___> where are audio setting on 14.04?
[16:18] <miphix_> lol
[16:18] <Laurenceb___> oh
[16:18] <Laurenceb___> im running xfce
[16:18] <miphix_> i am going to learn alot sitting here
[16:19] <Laurenceb___> i seem to have no audio
[16:19] <cromagi> jhutchins , lspci -nn shows my adapter at the bottom of the list
[16:19] <cfhowlett> destro-, unlikely as natty is LONG past end of life and completely unsupported in any way, shape or form
[16:20] <miphix_> LTS ftw
[16:20] <destro-> cfhowlett im fairly aware it's eol
[16:20] <cromagi> miphix_: run lspci -nn and see if your device is in the list
[16:20] <Laurenceb___> so how can i troubleshoot my audio?
[16:20] <cromagi> If it is then the kernel can read it and your in bidness
[16:20] <destro-> i am simply seeing if one exists for the legacy user, im between upgrades if you will
[16:20] <Laurenceb___> can anyone help?
[16:20] <cfhowlett> !sound | Laurenceb
[16:21] <cromagi> Laurenceb_: What's your problem?
[16:21] <Laurenceb___> I have no audio output
[16:21] <miphix_> ok, since i'm not near the machine at the time being. lets say it is and isn;t
[16:21] <Laurenceb___> where is the volume applet?
[16:21] <jhutchins> destro-: If you choose for whatever reason to run a distro beyond EOL you commit to having to build/apply patches yourself.
[16:21] <cromagi> Go to system settings>sound
[16:21] <jhutchins> destro-: It's a perfectly viable strategy, but you do have to keep it up to date if it's on the 'net.
[16:21] <destro-> yeah i am willing to build the deb
[16:22] <cromagi> And play around until you get what you want
[16:22] <destro-> just curious if someone has done the work or published a guide
[16:22] <cromagi> jhutchins: you there?
[16:22] <k1l> cromagi: you are asking since days now and i still didnt see a output from "lsusb" or "lspci" in a pastebin to get to know what wifi chip that is at all
[16:22] <miphix_> Laurenceb___: you still ther?
[16:22] <Laurenceb___> yes
[16:22] <jhutchins> miphix_: The -nn switch causes the pciid to be included; there are databases where you can search for the associated driver.
[16:22] <miphix_> what is your sound card doing?
[16:22] <miphix_> jhutchins: where can I find the database
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> audio mixer says @HDA Intel@
[16:23] <miphix_> after that, i'm set
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> arg
[16:23] <destro-> jhutchins: for the most part mitigation via network firewall is the best till my EOL OS servers go to their final resting place
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> keyboard is screwed too
[16:23] <cromagi> my chip is a "Broadcom corporation: Wmp54GS v1.1 802.llg wireless -G PCI adapter
[16:23] <ppf> Laurenceb___: run pavucontrol
[16:23] <miphix_> that's crazy
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> ok
[16:23] <destro-> Laurenceb___ your shit sounds really fucked up
[16:23] <miphix_> so, what do you mean it's intel
[16:23] <miphix_> is it something else/
[16:23] <destro-> is this a laptop?
[16:23] <destro-> desktop?
[16:23] <Laurenceb___> yes, laptop
[16:24] <Laurenceb___> Latitude D820, fresh 14.04 lts
[16:24] <destro-> what brand/model?
[16:24] <destro-> did you see if anyone has done a guide to installing and using for that model already
[16:24] <cromagi> kil ^^^^^
[16:24] <Laurenceb___> ok ill google
[16:24] <destro-> if there are changes one needs to make for the specific components?
[16:24] <jhutchins> !wifi
[16:25] <destro-> in all honesty most of the information you require for a laptop that isnt "certified" for an OS comes from searching from others experiences or by writing up something yourself as you learn
[16:25] <miphix_> !wifi chipset
[16:25] <destro-> that was the bonus of running linux on a laptop pre-ubuntu, you had to figure this shit out yourself
[16:25] <miphix_> mer
[16:25] <destro-> so a lot of the questions took work
[16:25] <daftykins> miphix_: please play with the bot in a private message if you're in a spammy mood
[16:26] <jhutchins> cromagi: 14.04, right?
[16:26] <daftykins> it's very irritating to the rest of us
[16:26] <miphix_> not spamming
[16:26] <jhutchins> !firmware
[16:26] <miphix_> i'm actually trying to use it
[16:26] <cromagi> yees, jhutchins
[16:26] <raf97> CIAO!
[16:26] <daftykins> yeah, so do so in a PM please.
[16:26] <raf97> !list
[16:26] <miphix_> yes sir
[16:26] <cfhowlett> miphix_, like this:  /msg ubottu !triggergoeshere
[16:26] <cromagi> !list
[16:26] <miphix_> what's the bots nic?
[16:26] <jhutchins> cromagi miphix_ This might be helpful: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:26] <cromagi> what ubottu?
[16:27] <destro-> i do miss the days of linux being an educational tool for the desktop/laptop user
[16:27] <MonkeyDust> destro-  linux is no "tool"
[16:27] <miphix_> interesting thank you cfhowlett
[16:28] <cfhowlett> miphix_, happy2help!
[16:28] <destro-> MonkeyDust of you dont understand the use of the word tool
[16:28] <destro-> im uncertain if you get my point
[16:28] <miphix_> oh man, i smell a flame
[16:28] <miphix_> linux isn't a tool?
[16:28] <miphix_> xD
[16:28] <destro-> tool = something to help you build
[16:29] <miphix_> or destroy
[16:29] <miphix_> seriously, i've seen linux do some crazy stuff
[16:29] <destro-> linux itself is a tool to help you build upon computing knowledge, i had to LEARN linux when i picked it up in 95
[16:29] <destro-> 96 or so
[16:30] <destro-> now a days, it's far more simple to get running, at least in the server sense
[16:30] <miphix_> i discovered linux in 2008
[16:30] <miphix_> sad
[16:30] <destro-> im probably a bit older
[16:30] <miphix_> my world, it was only windows and mac
[16:30] <miphix_> 31 yo
[16:30] <destro-> 36
[16:30] <destro-> just a bit
[16:30] <miphix_> i lived under a rock
[16:30] <miphix_> that doesn't help either
[16:30] <destro-> i was a college dropout sysadmin
[16:30] <destro-> still am
[16:31] <miphix_> :)
[16:31] <destro-> work at a big nyc media company
[16:31] <miphix_> it's just a number
[16:31] <miphix_> nice
[16:31] <cfhowlett> !ot | please
[16:31] <destro-> all the experience has made up for the lack of giving a shit about student loans
[16:31] <destro-> ubottu fair enough
[16:31] <destro-> cfhowlett sorry
[16:31] <miphix_> oh don't tell me about student loans
[16:31] <cromagi> i dont know if mine is b43
[16:32] <miphix_> i'm in for 20 grand for a network systems engineering course and I'm getting screwed
[16:32] <miphix_> my teacher is a tool
[16:32] <destro-> anyhow, anyone spent time compiling something to mitigate GHOST over 11.04?  or am i SOL?
[16:32] <cfhowlett> miphix_, PM or #ubuntu-offtopic for chit chat.
[16:32] <miphix_> ok
[16:33] <gitext> After Ubuntu has crashed (again) my Bash history is corrupted. Just hieroglyphs in it. How can I fix it?
[16:34] <cfhowlett> cromagi, refresh hour memory ... looks like you're working on wifi??
[16:34] <cromagi> yes
[16:35] <cfhowlett> cromagi, is it a broadcom by chance??
[16:36] <TheNumb> destro-: which version of glibc?
[16:37] <k1l> destro-: not from official side. 11.04 is EOL anyways and should not be used
[16:38] <TheNumb> hmm, eglibc 2.13
[16:38] <TheNumb> patch yo shizz
[16:38] <TheNumb> :P
[16:39] <TheNumb> destro-: you could probably fetch the patch from debian and apply it yourself.
[16:39] <destro-> TheNumb oooh good call
[16:39] <pratik_> Hi can you give me link of Off Topic chat room ?
[16:39] <k1l> !ot | pratik_
[16:43] <skapism> Hi, I'm running ubuntu server 14.04 in an openvz environment (kernel 2.6.32-042stab094.8). I'm running a lighttpd/sql/php configuration. I have 2GiB of memory according to free -m. Even though lighttpd/mariadb/php don't consume a lot of memory, I only have about 100 MiB free.
[16:43] <skapism> Is there a way to find out what's consuming the rest of the memory? (If I turn off all those services, there's around 300 MiB free.)
[16:43] <daftykins> www.linuxatemyram.com
[16:43] <null___> Test.
[16:43] <daftykins> null___: failed
[16:43] <null___> Fuck yeah, it works.
[16:44] <cfhowlett> !language | null___,
[16:44] <daftykins> null___: don't use that language and don't use this channel for your testing. #test
[16:44] <null___> Okay.
[16:45] <skapism> daftykins: that would be fine, but when I just tried to install git via apt-get, it failed, saying it cannot fork.
[16:45] <k1l> skapism: open htop and sort for ram usage
[16:46] <skapism> k1l: I've got mysql at around 5%, then 10 php-cgi process each at ~1.5%, and those are the major culprits.
[16:46] <skapism> That hardly amounts to 20% of the ram
[16:46] <daftykins> skapism: such an ancient kernel, who is your provider?
[16:46] <skapism> intovps
[16:48] <k1l> skapism: are you sure it guaranteed 2 gb ram? sometimes the only got 1 gb and 1 gb is shared of all vhosts.
[16:49] <skapism> k1l: yup, it's 2048 MB guaranteed.
[16:50] <skapism> Well it does say 1702 at buffers/cache under free, so that should be fine.
[16:50] <skapism> I just wonder why dpkg couldn't fork...
[16:51] <rockstar_> Is it possible to do remote dual boot Ubuntu Installation, if so how? At the other end I have a small sister and I'm trying to help her to install it.
[16:51] <saltlake> Champs, I find this is a common problem but have not found a resolution to it "gdk_mir_display_open
[16:51] <saltlake> Failed to connect to Mir: Failed to connect to server socket: No such file or directory
[16:51] <saltlake> Cannot open display:"
[16:51] <saltlake> where gdk display is an issue on ubuntu server 14.1
[16:52] <saltlake> is there a fix/hack that could be used
[16:53] <cromagi> yes it is cfhowlett
[16:53] <k1l> saltlake: what ubunut is that exactly?
[16:53] <cfhowlett> !broadcom | cromagi
[16:53] <cfhowlett> cromagi, do you have an ubuntu USB?
[16:53] <k1l> saltlake: and what did produce that error? is there more than this words?
[16:53] <saltlake> k11: this is ubuntu server 14.1
[16:53] <cromagi> what do u mean
[16:53] <k1l> saltlake: "lsb_release -d" gives you what?
[16:54] <k1l> saltlake: and what did produce that error? and why does it want to open a window on a server?
[16:54] <saltlake> k11: http://pastebin.com/S9Uhh4YY
[16:54] <k1l> saltlake: and mir should not be used so far at all
[16:55] <saltlake> k1l: Ok so I unistall mir components.
[16:55] <bu5hm4n> hello, can someone tell me if I can uninstall linux-server on a server ?
[16:55] <k1l> saltlake: mir ist still "in the making". the target for MIR as the new x11 is 16.04. its side by side with wayland development.
[16:56] <saltlake> k1l: Oh wow.. I did not explicit to install it actually
[16:56] <saltlake> I installed gnome-shell. I should remove it. Can you recommend a way to get a display lib for allow a window to open ?
[16:57] <k1l> saltlake: ssh -X works
[16:57] <saltlake> I will try that.. thank you
[16:58] <skapism> k1l: any idea what could be the cause? for comparison, I had an older archlinux installation running on this vps until a while ago that consumed on average 1.2GB RAM. I'm seeing these values since having reinstalled.
[16:58] <k1l> saltlake: you dont need a desktop running for that. you can just open that window on you local machine with ssh -X
[16:58] <k1l> skapism: what gives you free -m?
[16:59] <saltlake> Basically the ssh connection to the server needs to have the -X option..
[16:59] <k1l> !paste | skapism
[16:59] <jpds_> !ram | skapism
[16:59] <cromagi> is there a teamviewer for ubuntu
[16:59] <daftykins> i already linked that
[16:59] <daftykins> cromagi: yes, on their website
[16:59] <skapism> k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9959474/
[17:00] <cromagi> so somebody on windows can use it to connect to my ubuntu?
[17:00] <jhutchins> cromagi: What are you really trying to do?
[17:00] <jpds_> skapism: Plenty of cache free.
[17:00] <bu5hm4n> cromagi: if I remember correct it is running on linux ...
[17:00] <k1l> skapism: see the 2. line
[17:01] <k1l> skapism: linuxatemyram.com explains the lines very good
[17:01] <skapism> k1l: yep, I've read linuxatemyram.com
[17:01] <cromagi> im on a dev team and we could really use it]
[17:01] <cromagi> How to install a .deb file?
[17:01] <skapism> but why would an apt-get install git fail then?
[17:01] <k1l> skapism: so you got a ram usage of 354 mb.
[17:01] <k1l> skapism: that depends on the exact error message
[17:01] <cfhowlett> cromagi, sudo dpkg -i foo.deb
[17:01] <jpds_> skapism: Try it again.
[17:01] <cromagi> ok
[17:02] <bu5hm4n> cromagi: do you know collabedit ?
[17:04] <cromagi> no
[17:04] <skapism> jpds_: oh well, it worked. I wonder what that fork error was...
[17:04] <cromagi> sudo dpkg -i foo.deb didnt work to install it
[17:04] <cromagi> any other way?
[17:04] <jpds_> skapism: Cosmic ray.
[17:04] <cfhowlett> cromagi, "it" ??   what "it"?
[17:05] <squinty> cromagi:  the software manager or install gdebi.   both will check for dependancy issues too
[17:05] <skapism> jpds_: well, thank you.
[17:05] <EriC^^> cromagi: what's the package/filename?
[17:05] <skapism> k1l: thank you, too.
[17:06] <k1l> np
[17:06] <cromagi> teamviewer_10.0.37742_amd64.deb
[17:07] <EriC^^> cromagi: what was the error?
[17:07] <EriC^^> !info teamviewer
[17:07] <pratik_> Hi
[17:07] <skapism> k1l: apparently the kernel openvz uses is based on an older rhel6 kernel...
[17:07] <pratik_> I can use a Windows machine for 10 hours straight without the slightest problem, but after around 15-30 minutes of using ubuntu my eyes become sore and dried out.I currently have 14.04 installed with a dual-boot Windows XP. Same hardware, eyestrain only with ubuntu.
[17:08] <cromagi> how do i install it?
[17:08] <EriC^^> cromagi: what is the error it's giving?
[17:08] <k1l> skapism: yes, that is very old. imho they should offer newer kernels. maybe you can ask and get migrated to a more recent host
[17:09] <squinty> cromagi:  try clicking on it in your file manager.  Software center will handle debs too
[17:10] <squinty> cromagi:  if it still barfs using gdebi or software center then you may have a corrupt deb
[17:10] <skapism> k1l: yeah, so far as I've read now, openvz cannot work yet with 3.x kernels with a full feature set
[17:10] <cromagi> dpkg: error processing archive foo.deb (--install):

[17:11] <cfhowlett> cromagi, foo.deb the name of your file?
[17:11] <k1l> skapism: hmm, i am not sure. i saw a lot of openvz with 3.xx kernels

[17:12] <cfhowlett> cromagi, in linux-speak "foo" = Placeholder of actual file name
[17:12] <cromagi> i know
[17:12] <skapism> k1l: it claims that just basic functionality is supported
[17:12] <jpds_> skapism: Hasn't openvz been killed by lxc?
[17:12] <skapism> jpds_: maybe I should start looking for another vps hoster, then.
[17:13] <skapism> pity, I've been really content with this one over the years, never had any problems
[17:13] <daftykins> but a 2.16 kernel in 2015? madness
[17:13] <skapism> 2.6.32, daftykins
[17:13] <k1l> skapism: the wiki page is from january 2014. i dont know if that is still true then. but maybe there is a openvz channel that can make a good answer
[17:13] <daftykins> sorry, brain fail.
[17:14] <skapism> k1l: yeah, I'd better ask my host directly what their plans are
[17:14] <cromagi> what do i do??
[17:14] <skapism> hoster*
[17:14] <daftykins> cromagi: don't use 64-bit
[17:14] <skapism> have you got any recommendations for a good no-frills vps provider?
[17:15] <cromagi> i have 64bit
[17:15] <daftykins> nope that's pretty off topic for this channel
[17:15] <skapism> alright
[17:15] <daftykins> cromagi: i know - and i'm saying try 32-bit teamviewer :)
[17:15] <cromagi> okay ;)
[17:15] <k1l> skapism: #ubuntu-offtopic might be better for that experience exchange :)
[17:15] <skapism> k1l: that sounds good!

[17:23] <mustmodify> I'm experiencing an odd, intermitent issue with a server that seems to revolve around files. For instance, tailing a relatively small file just now took several seconds to come up. Same thing happens with vim. Usually things are fast, but occasionally there's a several-second delay. Any thoughts on how I can diagnose this kind of issue?
[17:23] <EriC^^> that too ^
[17:25] <daftykins> mustmodify: what kind of server?
[17:25] <cromagi> none of those worked
[17:25] <mustmodify> daftykins: ubuntu ... I'll have to look up the version number.
[17:26] <mustmodify> I'm accessing it via ssh
[17:26] <cn28h_> mustmodify: local files or are they mounted over nfs/cifs/etc?
[17:26] <mustmodify> local
[17:26] <mustmodify> cn28h_: local
[17:26] <daftykins> mustmodify: i mean physical box vs. VM, running at home or what
[17:27] <mustmodify> daftykins: ah, thanks. Let's see... vm at rackspace
[17:27] <mustmodify> load and memory look good
[17:28] <daftykins> disk usage?
[17:28] <daftykins> i think you should give them a shout in the first isntance
[17:28] <daftykins> instance too
[17:28] <mustmodify> I'm not sure how to look at that.
[17:29] <null___> The BELL (\a) is off by default at ubuntu, right? How to turn it on?
[17:29] <daftykins> mustmodify: 'df -h'
[17:33] <cromagi> what do i do?
[17:33] <cromagi> It wont install
[17:33] <cromagi> dang
[17:34] <daftykins> cromagi: i thought you were working on wifi trouble to start with?
[17:34] <pratik_> Hi , could you please solve my issue ? Please I beg you!
[17:34] <daftykins> what's more important here?
[17:34] <pratik_> Hi , could you please solve my issue ? Please I beg you!
[17:35] <daftykins> pratik_: please don't repeat yourself, it's very irritating
[17:35] <cromagi> i took a break from it
[17:35] <bkleef> Did anybody use mdadm to create RAID sets like ZFS with for example two RAID 6 setups and on top of that RAID 0?
[17:35] <cromagi> How do i fix unmet dependencies?
[17:35] <squinty> cromagi:  just installed that file using, the software center and my file manager without any problems.  using dpkg is not the recommended method.  as stated before use either the software center or install gdebi.
[17:35] <pratik_> I didnt get ANY answer from ANY1.What is this then ?
[17:35] <daftykins> pratik_: go look up ways to change your subpixel rendering and ensure you're using the correct resolution for your display
[17:35] <daftykins> pratik_: this is a volunteer channel, you are not *owed* help
[17:35] <pratik_> its proper resolution
[17:36] <cromagi> i cant install gdebi either
[17:36] <cromagi> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[17:36] <cromagi>  gdebi : Depends: gdebi-core (= 0.9.5.4) but it is not going to be installed
[17:36] <cromagi>          Depends: gksu but it is not going to be installed

[17:36] <pratik_> subpixel rendering ? how to change it?

[17:37] <niel> so is there a way to install the drivers from nvidia and not have it screw the entire DE?

[17:38] <EriC^^> cromagi: try the 64bit version
[17:38] <EriC^^> ( if you're using a 64bit machine )
[17:39] <squinty> multiarch version installs without any problems on 14.04
[17:39] <niel> even nvidia-current is super outdated
[17:39] <squinty> that package he is trying to install is multiarch
[17:39] <EriC^^> squinty: ok
[17:39] <parallels> ciao
[17:40] <cromagi> sudo apt-get install gdebi
[17:40] <cromagi> i tried both versions
[17:40] <daftykins> pratik_: i would recommend you don't act entitled in here, i gave you a pointer of what to look up - now you may help yourself :)

[17:53] <quey> Can anyone help?
[17:53] <cromagi> what do i do?
[17:54] <daftykins> quey: you probably want a java development channel
[17:54] <daftykins> development is off topic here
[17:54] <quey> i have write there but no answer
[17:54] <daftykins> quey: then you must be patient there, whether it's #java or ##java or what
[17:55] <cgt> Anyone got experience (good/bad) with Asus Z97-AR under Linux?
[17:55] <cromagi> how do i install gdebi?
[17:55] <cgt> cromagi: sudo apt-get install gdebi
[17:56] <daftykins> cgt: very unlikely to find someone with the same hardware, standard sense applies - try to get a board with intel NICs and not realtek ones
[17:56] <daftykins> (or those silly 'killer NICs'
[17:57] <cgt> Yeah it's got an Intel NIC. It does say "turboLAN" though... sounds suspicious. I'll look it up.
[17:57] <daftykins> probably some silly Asus tech claiming speed improvements :)
[17:57] <cgt> Yeah, I know some of their ROG boards have silly stuff like that
[17:59] <cromagi> i get errors with that
[17:59] <smurfy> how do you configure lynx as to where it saves files to?

[18:05] <cgt> cromagi: It would help if you pasted the exact error you get on paste.ubuntu.com
[18:05] <OerHeks> cromagi, so you are installing on a samsung galaxy s3?
[18:05] <cromagi> no

[18:18] <beast> actually not in town.
[18:18] <quey_> i need invited
[18:18] <daftykins> quey_: it's probably ##java
[18:19] <quey_> doesnt exist
[18:19] <ppf> it's ##java
[18:19] <daftykins> quey_: any network problems, please ask for support in #freenode
[18:19] <LurkAshFlake> how do i access the content of my cd-drive in a terminal?
[18:20] <quey_>  ##java :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services
[18:20] <squinty> quey_:  joining #java here automatically sends me to join ##java
[18:20] <Pici> !register | quey_
[18:20] <LurkAshFlake> squinty same channel
[18:20] <quey_> ok
[18:20] <squinty> LurkAshFlake:  that is exactly my point. :P
[18:20] <daftykins> LurkAshFlake: you should see a mounted disc path from "df -h" then you can change to its' path
[18:21] <daftykins> (assuming it's desktop that auto mounted the disc)
[18:24] <LurkAshFlake> is there a tool to get a .iso file out of a CD?
[18:25] <LurkAshFlake> well yes there is but.. anyway
[18:25] <daftykins> 'dd'
[18:25] <null___> Hm. How to trick firefox to open irc:// links with irssi? Any idea?
[18:27] <teward> null___: you'd need a GUI hook that executes irssi in certain parameters - irssi is CLI so i don't think by default there's any kind of application integration there
[18:28] <kbrosnan> null___: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Register_protocol
[18:28] <null___> Thought about to automatic run urxvt with irssi. I'll check mighty google.
[18:28] <null___> Oh, thanks.
[18:30] <squinty> null___:  there is also a firefox channel here on freenode    #firefox
[18:30] <Rapture> I'm trying to figure out why my logrotate isn't kicking in for a set of logs. I have it set to daily and when I do a dry run it says "log does not need rotating" when I check the status the date of the logs it well over a day old (2014-12-16-6:0:0). Any help on why it's not working?
[18:32] <Rapture> why I run it with -f I get error: error creating output file /var/log/mylog/mylog.log-20150125.gz: File exists
[18:33] <breadmonster> Okay, so I have a slight problem booting.
[18:34] <breadmonster> I gave my laptop to the HP service center, and they opened it up and booted it with a spare HDD, which completely changed my motherboard values, I think.
[18:34] <breadmonster> So I ran boot repair on a live CD.
[18:35] <daftykins> that doesn't seem a wise move
[18:35] <breadmonster> this is the log file: paste.ubuntu.com/9960646
[18:35] <breadmonster> daftykins: I had Ubuntu installed before.
[18:35] <maelztrom> So, I bumpbed my 12.04.? to HWE to get the 3.8 kernel (docker installation instrutions for precise).  I'd like to back out of this. hwe-support-status command  told me -- check out the wiki at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/1204_HWE_EOL
[18:35] <maelztrom> the wiki told me:  "the hwe-support-status tool will tell you what you need to do"
[18:36] <daftykins> maelztrom: yeah you can't install 3.8 on precise, that's an old EOL kernel :)
[18:36] <maelztrom> how the heck do I get my kernel back to 3.2 series...?
[18:36] <daftykins> maelztrom: ls /boot, confirm you still have 3.2 kernels, then just purge the 3.8 ones
[18:36] <breadmonster> daftykins: now I'm back on Windows. GRUB just doesn't show up.
[18:37] <breadmonster> Can anyone give me a hand?
[18:37] <daftykins> breadmonster: looks like you just need to reinstall GRUB
[18:37] <daftykins> !fixgrub
[18:37] <maelztrom> that simple daftykins?  heck... thought it was like switching me up to some pseudo distro.  Thanks
[18:37] <breadmonster> daftykins: I already ran boot-repair once...
[18:37] <breadmonster> Like five minutes ago.
[18:38] <daftykins> maelztrom: nah, just kernel packages and some xorg packages - but that only matters if it's a desktop
[18:40] <maelztrom> daftykins: standard dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[18:40] <daftykins> wat, so it is a desktop?
[18:40] <maelztrom> (of course)
[18:40] <daftykins> there's no of course about that :>
[18:41] <daftykins> what did you initially run to install the raring HWE?
[18:41] <maelztrom>  sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic-lts-raring linux-headers-generic-lts-raring
[18:41] <daftykins> oh and no depends?
[18:41] <maelztrom> sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-raring xserver-xorg-lts-raring libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-raring
[18:41] <daftykins> ah :P
[18:42] <daftykins> oh dear oh dear oh dear
[18:42] <maelztrom> did the reboot, looked at the new shiny, saw a million other things break, got the HWE warning and said "wow, I think I should have made a fresh backup"

[18:49]  * Mark-Potter tests it
[18:49] <Mark-Potter> !pm
[18:50] <breadmonster> daftykins: Did you have a look at the boot-repair logs?
[18:50] <daftykins> yes but i'm not that hot with them
[18:51] <breadmonster> Do you know who I can ask/
[18:51] <beast> was wondering about it, still wating...
[18:51] <daftykins> beast: about what?
[18:52] <daftykins> breadmonster: actually... go into your system's EFI (the BIOS setup) and make sure the boot device is set to the hard disk instead of 'Windows Boot Manager' or whatever the exact name is
[18:52] <breadmonster> How do I do that?
[18:52] <daftykins> what brand did you say it is?
[18:52] <daftykins> HP
[18:53] <daftykins> hmm, something like F12 on boot at the logo to enter setup, it should say on-screen
[18:53] <breadmonster> daftykins: Yup.
[18:54] <daftykins> beast: do you have a support question or not?
[18:54] <maelztrom> many thanks daftykins, lurking in hopes of pay-it-forward
[19:02] <nafac> Ubuntu eat my socks, I can do anything three keypresses with my brand new debian openbox development ide.
[19:02] <kristoffelloos> Does anyone have a solution, I'm trying to stream Linux games from my one Ubuntu pc to another one, who does this, and what app are you using for this?
[19:02] <__raven_> hi
[19:04] <__raven_> 14.04.1 servr with encrypted home: some things and the ssh key auth fail often. how to solve that properly - timeout of ecryptfs access?
[19:04] <murdravic> nafac: Ubuntu thinks my usb wired game controller is wireless. Anyone out there can help me fix this, it'd be much appreciated. I'm going slightly mad.
[19:05] <pragmaticenigma> murdravic, does the controller work?
[19:06] <pbx> kristoffelloos, it's possible i'm just ignorant, but i have no idea what you mean by "stream" a game.  are you trying to do screen capture?  file transfer? the answer may not be game-specific. spell it out a little more, including saying what you tried and specificlally how it didn't meet your needs
[19:07] <murdravic> pragmaticenigma:  Should.  I just bought it. I got it t configure in debian, but I don't think it saved. And wouldn't work in mupen.
[19:07] <Mark-Potter> lol
[19:07] <nafac> buy XBOX hoh
[19:07] <Mark-Potter> nafac: STFU
[19:08] <kristoffelloos> pbx my one pc has a good video card  etc, the other one in my living room is a older one, can't handle modern games, Steam inhouse gaming stream only works from Windows to Linux. I want a solution so I can game on my older pc true the stronger one ;-)
[19:09] <Rapture> !matched
[19:09] <Rapture> !matches
[19:09] <pbx> kristoffelloos, good clarification, thanks.  sounds like maybe steam support would be worth hitting up as well
[19:09] <murdravic> Correct if wrong-- xbox one has regular console connecter?  xbox 360 is usb?
[19:09] <nafac> hack the controller
[19:10] <nafac> flash bash boom
[19:11] <daftykins> murdravic: xbox360 controllers are wired and wireless. the wireless one is USB connectable but does not send data over USB, therefore can't be used without a wireless dongle. the wired one is USB, yes. the xbox one controller is microUSB connectable and works wired (not sure about with Linux)
[19:11] <OerHeks> i read that xbox360 controller is supported in 3.18 kernel, without vibro http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/12/linux-kernel-3-18-released-whats-new
[19:11] <daftykins> nafac: since you do not use ubuntu and are not here for a support question, please remain silent otherwise you can talk in #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:12] <kristoffelloos> @pbx Steam isn't there yet, I'm looking for another solution like a kind of rdp, vnc or x11 solution on high framerate and sound support
[19:12] <pragmaticenigma> murdravic, If the controller is working, even though it thinks it is wireless, that is okay. Sometimes the driver will claim it's wireless when it really isn't.
[19:12] <murdravic> daftykins: So xB1 micro, xB360 reb
[19:12] <daftykins> 'reb' ?
[19:13] <murdravic> er,,, reg-ular
[19:14] <crazyhead42> I'm trying to figure out how to open the filecabnet to specific pages using the shell (so that I can see what type of files are in the directory I am viewing. ps ux gives me waaaayy too much information and I can't Identify the the program. How should I go about identifying it?
[19:14] <murdravic> So two people responded. Who is primary?
[19:15] <daftykins> primary? explain
[19:15] <daftykins> crazyhead42: as in you're trying to find out which program is the file browser? nautilus if this is unity
[19:16] <daftykins> so perhaps "nautilus ." for current working directory
[19:16] <crazyhead42> ... umm... how do I identify if I'm using unity?
[19:16] <daftykins> you see all the icons on the left of the screen in a vertical toolbar
[19:16] <RussianAgg> i use windows XP
[19:16] <murdravic> daftykins:  Neh Mine I'll just broadcast. Is it established I have xbox 360 controller> Would It matter?
[19:16] <MonkeyDust> crazyhead42  taksbar to the  left?
[19:16] <RussianAgg> pirate version
[19:16] <RussianAgg> i dont pay for soft
[19:16] <daftykins> murdravic: i can't understand you :)
[19:17] <rww> RussianAgg: My condolences. Is there an Ubuntu technical support question we can help you with?
[19:17] <DJones> RussianAgg: ok, but how is that relevant to Ubuntu
[19:17] <crazyhead42> Yes. I believe so.
[19:17] <MonkeyDust> crazyhead42  what do you see?
[19:17] <RussianAgg> ubunti is it sex form ? like 69 ?
[19:18] <RussianAgg> WHAT THE FUKC
[19:18] <MonkeyDust> RussianAgg  please leave
[19:18] <murdravic> Judging by the connecter type, do I have xbox 360 controller?? Does it even matter??
[19:18] <RussianAgg> SANCTION?
[19:18] <DJones> RussianAgg: This is an ubuntu support channel, please stay on topic
[19:18] <RussianAgg> against russia?
[19:18] <DJones> !guidelines | RussianAgg
[19:19] <RussianAgg> why do you use it shiit?
[19:19] <OerHeks> RussianAgg, join #ubuntu-ru for more fun.
[19:19] <crazyhead42> Umm, well it's got the search thing on top, the terminal button, the files button, then a bunch of other squares
[19:19] <daftykins> murdravic: you can tell the controller version from pictures online. only the wired xbox 360 controller works without a wireless dongle (the USB cable cannot be removed from the controller end)
[19:19] <MonkeyDust> crazyhead42  which of these is it? http://imgur.com/a/9iaLJ#cMfLqdM
[19:20] <crazyhead42> 1st
[19:20] <MonkeyDust> ok, that's unity, the default
[19:21] <crazyhead42> but how do I find that stuff out?
[19:21] <murdravic> Then, since my usb cable removes from both ends, it must be xbox 1?
[19:21] <daftykins> crazyhead42: you saw me say it's nautilus right?
[19:21] <MonkeyDust> crazyhead42  by getting used to it, by using it, like you got used to windows or mac
[19:22] <crazyhead42> Yes, but what I want is not the fish, but rather how to fish (pardon the poorly used metaphor)
[19:22] <daftykins> murdravic: does it look like this? maybe in white? http://www.gamerzicon.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Xbox-360-Play-and-charge-Kit.png
[19:23] <__raven_> 14.04.1 servr with encrypted home: some things and the ssh key auth fail often. how to solve that properly - timeout of ecryptfs access?
[19:23] <daftykins> murdravic: this is an xbox 360 controller above an xbox one controller: http://gameswallpaperhd.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/xbox-one-controller-colorsxbox-one--xbox-360-controller-comparison-e4qyagwz.jpg
[19:23] <MonkeyDust> !manual | crazyhead42 start here
[19:24] <Bashing-om> !manual | crazyhead42
[19:25] <murdravic> daftykins:  It does not. The cable is standard, with regular usb connector on one end, and micro-usb on the other. And the controller has one micro-usb port, and one (I think mini?) usb port.
[19:25] <murdravic> And cable and controller are both black
[19:25] <crazyhead42> ah, yes. That thing. I'm still learning how to navigate it. And generally failing.
[19:25] <daftykins> murdravic: so which pic?
[19:25] <daftykins> bottom one, xbox one controller, presumably
[19:26] <kirkland> __raven_: disable automatic unmounting
[19:26] <murdravic> daftykins:  Your web link showed only one pic...
[19:26] <daftykins> murdravic: yeah i meant which one in the pic :)
[19:27] <Bashing-om> crazyhead42: Another guide I like: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Trusty .
[19:28] <__raven_> kirkland: how to do that?
[19:28] <murdravic> daftykins: er... and there's... only one cable? Looks like some kindof cap, aswell... I dunno...
[19:28] <crazyhead42> So there aren't commands to see what was activated by the GUI?
[19:28] <daftykins> murdravic: *facepalm* are you unable to compare what you have in front of you with a picture online?
[19:29] <daftykins> murdravic: anyway it sounds like you have an xbox one controller. see the picture for proof
[19:29] <michaelaguiar> Can someone give me a quick hand on a software raid?
[19:29] <daftykins> !details | michaelaguiar
[19:29] <MonsterC> hi
[19:29] <michaelaguiar> I have a 24 disk raid array.  2 of them had some superblock issue, and now I have some corrupt files.  I was able to mark those 2 drives as spares, and mount the drive to log back into it
[19:29] <michaelaguiar> But now, I need to move the two spares back onto the array, with hopes that it will fix my corrupt files
[19:30] <murdravic> daftykins:  That is the definitive difference? The cable in the pic is xbox360?
[19:30] <kirkland> __raven_: rm -f $HOME/.ecryptfs/auto-umount
[19:30] <murdravic> Then yes, mine is xbox 1
[19:31] <divBy0> hey, im trying to access a camera feed at mydlink.com and on firefox and chrome it's saying jre is not installed and java is not showing up in either browser's about:plugins. from terminal java -version says java is up to date
[19:32] <murdravic> does xboxdrv or ubuntu-xboxdrv work in xbox 1?
[19:33] <daftykins> murdravic: look at the guide button on each, they're pretty hugely different
[19:36] <__raven_> kirkland: ok tnx
[19:36] <kbrosnan> divBy0: you will need to install the java plugin. it is a separate package. note java is a npapi plugin it will only work in Firefox these days
[19:36] <murdravic> does xboxdrv or ubuntu-xboxdrv work in xbox 1?
[19:36] <divBy0> kbrosnan, what is npapi?
[19:37] <daftykins> divBy0: mozilla plugin system
[19:37] <daftykins> (technically netscape)
[19:37] <divBy0> kbrosnan, daftykins thx && cheers
[19:42] <murdravic> daftykins:  At least I've completely identified it. Finally. It's an xbox 360.
[19:43] <daftykins> murdravic: yay :)
[19:43] <murdravic> daftykins:  Can you help me set it up as xbox 1?
[19:43] <daftykins> no, you can't make a controller into another model
[19:45] <murdravic> daftykins:  Dafty... the cable in your web link pic looks nothing like mine. I was testing. I have the xbox 1 controller. Could you help me to set it up?
[19:45] <Pici> 70
[19:46] <daftykins> murdravic: deliberate attempts to mislead me don't really put me in a charitable mood. goodbye now
[19:47] <murdravic> Well... (CENSORED)
[19:49] <murdravic> (Really Long Rant... Self-Censored)
[19:49] <michaelaguiar> I had 2 drives on a 24 drive array suddently return a no superblock error.  I moved these drives to SPARES, and was able to mount my raid again, but I have a ton of corrupt files.  Any ideas how to get my files back?
[19:50] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: did you look at their SMART data to see if they had failed?
[19:50] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: How can I check that?

[19:52] <WR-Stone> I have an issue with PBIS Open and a Windows domain in Azure.  Anyone have any experience?  And yes, I'm aware that Azure sucks.  ;)
[19:52] <murdravic> daftykins:  You know... I thought we,d established it to be Not xbox 360. You took so long getting back, I just thought I'd playfully nudge...
[19:53] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9962122/  there is the other
[19:53] <daftykins> murdravic: no, you weren't clear. now excuse me, i'm helping people who make sense
[19:54] <murdravic> then you must not be reading fast enough. Thanks for anotherfailure.
[19:54] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Here is one more, that I was suspicious about, but it mounted with the rest of the array fine: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9962129/
[19:56] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: the first two show some errors at the bottom, but the SMART data tables are clean. the last one you link, has 1483 reallocated sectors on line 64 and is definitely 100% faulty, you should RMA that drive if you're in warranty
[19:56] <AkivaAvraham> is there an icon for Ubuntu Touch?
[19:56] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Ok so the first two are fine, it’s the last one that is my problem
[19:57] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: no, the first two show errors that i have not seen before, so they require more testing
[19:57] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Oh ok
[19:58] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: how did you determine you have corrupt data? did you fsck the volume after mounting with 2 missing disks?
[19:58] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: I mounted the full array, then try to open my files, and they are corrupt
[19:58] <daftykins> ah, what RAID mode does it use?
[19:58] <michaelaguiar> RAID 10
[19:59] <MonsterC> hi
[19:59] <daftykins> hmm 1TB disks are tiny for using 24 with :D
[19:59] <daftykins> s/with/of/
[20:00] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Yea, I didn’t set this raid up, and it’s a mess right now.
[20:00] <michaelaguiar> daftykins: Any idea if I can fix my corrupt files, or are they pretty much lost?
[20:01] <daftykins> michaelaguiar: your #1 priority is restoring the array, worry about the data after that :) the first two suspect drives i would zero fill then check their SMART data again... ("dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx bs=2M" on another system preferably) then if they are clean, try returning them to the array and rebuilding it. replace the definitely faulty one and rebuild it too

[20:21] <tflgen2> Hi, I'm trying to boot ubuntu with an NFS root. My initrd seems to not like that and keeps bailing out with a unknown block error. Anyone willing to help guide me?
[20:25] <steven__> Question! Why can I not do a dual boot with Windows? Ubuntu already installed on system. I want to install Windows now and then Ubuntu over this one. My Win CD will not boot.
[20:26] <k1l> steven__: choose the cd in boot menu order
[20:26] <steven__> That does not seem to work
[20:26] <steven__> I hit F12 and choose CD
[20:27] <tflgen2> steven__: disconnect the hard drive and try again. Make sure your windows install is bootable
[20:27] <k1l> steven__: maybe the cd is corrupted. if you choose the cd and it doesnt work its more a windows issue since in bios state ubuntu doesnt touch anything
[20:28] <steven__> When I disconnect the hard drive do you mean to unplug the SATA cable from the motherboard?
[20:28] <BluesKaj_> steven__, is thei s a laptop? if so try Fn+F2
[20:28] <tflgen2> steven__: either from the mobo or the hdd, doesn't matter which end
[20:28] <steven__> Shutdown. Unplug. Unplug SATA cable. Replug cable. Plug and power up. Nothing else to it?
[20:29] <steven__> I just want to make sure I have it clear
[20:29] <tflgen2> steven__: shutdown, unplug power cable, unplug sata cable, replug power, boot
[20:29] <BluesKaj_> tflgen2, that never worked for me
[20:29] <steven__> Right
[20:29] <tflgen2> BluesKaj_: what didn't nfs root?
[20:29] <steven__> Why must I disconnect the hard drive though? Why will that work?
[20:30] <tflgen2> steven__: this is just to test if your disc is good
[20:30] <steven__> Ahhh!
[20:30] <k1l> steven__: honestly: you dont need to. if you choose the "cd" in the boot menu and it doesnt work the cd is wrong.
[20:30] <k1l> steven__: so make sure the cd works
[20:31] <tflgen2> looks like he (steven) has one box
[20:35] <bwe> Hi, lightdm on my Ubuntu 14.10 (upgraded to Xubuntu) fails to start: http://sprunge.us/hGLI Where can I search for the root of this undesired behavior?
[20:36] <stryngs> Would upgrading dpkg break a system?
[20:36] <stryngs> on an old ubuntu for instance
[20:36] <stryngs> to a newer dpkg than what apt wants?
[20:36] <Darknet> why would you not upgrate your ubuntu
[20:36] <Darknet> upgrade *
[20:36] <stryngs> just a random question =)
[20:36] <stryngs> It's moreso for the maemo system on my n900
[20:36] <stryngs> just curious if its as intrical as libc6 for instance
[20:38] <bwe> I've went through https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM#Help.2C_I_can.27t_see_my_Desktop.21 w/out any success.
[20:40] <xar> is virt-manager and KVM are better than Virtualbox, please?
[20:40] <tflgen2> xar: depends on what you want to do
[20:41] <xar> tflgen2, would you please detail your answer?
[20:42] <k1l> xar: virtualbox is very userfriendly for the regular user
[20:43] <xar> k1l, I don't think that it's that userfriendly, look at this post of mine http://askubuntu.com/questions/578546/how-to-fix-virtualbox?noredirect=1#comment799171_578546
[20:43] <tflgen2> xar: if you are looking to virtualize many headless boxes and utilize primarily linux guests, my vote is for KVM. Windows guests and the occasional VM, I vot vbox
[20:43] <tflgen2> s/vot/vote
[20:43] <xar> k1l, this error remains unresolved
[20:44] <daftykins> that looks like you just don't have the product installed, nor the kernel module loaded
[20:44] <k1l> xar: how did you install virtualbox?
[20:44] <bwe> Okay, I have it: Failed to load modue "nvidia" (module does not exist). How can I switch to nouveau?
[20:45] <k1l> yes, i think there is the kernel module missing. like missing kernel headers or a wrong install
[20:45] <daftykins> bwe: it would have automatically were it installed. read the whole of /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[20:45] <xar> k1l, using ubuntu's app manager
[20:46] <k1l> xar: "dpkg -l | grep virtualbox"
[20:46] <bwe> daftykins: Thanks :)
[20:46] <xar> k1l, I didn't download it, I've just installed it from the app manager
[20:46] <vassagus> Is there any open source software free to use for bandwidth shaping?. I'm using shorewall as firewall and squid as proxy. Not sure if I can do that with squid.
[20:47] <vassagus> *easy to use, not free to use.
[20:48] <tony_> !list
[20:49] <bwe> daftykins: However, xserver-xorg-video-nouveau is installed: http://sprunge.us/KABK
[20:50] <daftykins> bwe: why have you added roughly one million kernel parmeters to your boot line?
[20:51] <daftykins> bwe: there's nothing wrong with nouvea, it's being used :)
[20:51] <bwe> daftykins: What's my problem?
[20:52] <daftykins> bwe: not X as far as i can tell. it's whatever is up with your lightdm / user config. check ~/ for any files not owned by your user
[20:53] <yana> )
[20:54] <bwe> daftykins: chowning the content of ~ to the $user did not solve the issue, hrmpf.
[20:54] <daftykins> bwe: oh dear, the shotgun approach. very unwise
[20:55] <xar> can someone help me on this please http://askubuntu.com/questions/578546/how-to-fix-virtualbox?noredirect=1#comment799171_578546?
[20:55] <xar> http://askubuntu.com/questions/578546/how-to-fix-virtualbox?noredirect=1#comment799171_578546
[20:55] <daftykins> xar: k1l asked you to run a command. you cannot progress until you do that
[20:56] <xar> daftykins, I did that
[20:56] <daftykins> where's the pastebin'd result?
[20:56] <bwe> daftykins: .Xauthority is owned by the user and is set to 177. Is that correct?
[20:56] <daftykins> bwe: pass.
[20:56] <xar> k1l, here is the result http://pastebin.com/8GP9q2Rc
[20:56] <xar> daftykins,

[20:59] <beast> hi fader
[20:59] <xar> daftykins, so? any suggestion, please?
[20:59] <daftykins> bwe: that's not a bug, that's usually a case of users running startx as root or with sudo, which is unwise. have you done that?
[20:59] <daftykins> xar: no

[21:00] <daftykins> bwe: create a new user and test it
[21:02] <bwe> daftykins: Fine. I start lightdm with   sudo start lightdm    correct?
[21:02] <beast> i was wandering, still wating

[21:04] <OerHeks> xar, when vbox complaints about 'WORLD_WRITABLE' that is bad, seems like vbox, or its vm is writable 777
[21:04] <bwe> daftykins: (having added a user before)
[21:04] <daftykins> bwe: sorry, not familiar with that
[21:04] <OerHeks> maybe a backup vm restored with wrong permissions, from ntfs to ext4
[21:05] <xar> OerHeks, so how do I to fix that? I've tried to reinstall it, but, nothing has changed.
[21:05] <xar> OerHeks, I think that I need to delete some config files which vbox doesn't remove on its uninstall, but i can't find them
[21:07] <k1l> xar: do you have the kernel headers installed for your kernel?
[21:07] <k1l> xar: "uname -a" brings you what?
[21:08] <xar> k1l, http://pastebin.com/7DsJ3TJ7
[21:08] <bwe> daftykins: It's .Xauthority file permissions. As unwise as you know me, I have deleted it without knowing what I am doing. How can I create it?
[21:08] <daftykins> bwe: what is?
[21:08] <OerHeks> that .Xauthority will be re-created when you reboot,

[21:11] <Hoenheim> Would anyone know if I can install Ubuntu on a 1st gen x1 carbon and use some of the 2nd generations drivers on Ubuntu's website?
[21:11] <k1l> xar: ok, so the right linux headers are installed. did you receive an error when installing vbox? and did you restart after the install?
[21:11] <daftykins> Hoenheim: just keep the OS up to date, no need to pick and choose drivers. this isn't windows
[21:12] <OerHeks> michaelaguiar, mdadm --stop /dev/md0 # maybe?
[21:12] <Diyar> emma spac :) it's was taste Opertoin System?
[21:12] <xar> k1l, I didn't got any error on the installation, it occurs when I try to launch start one vm
[21:12] <Hoenheim> alrighty, thanks ^_^
[21:12] <bwe> OerHeks: Thanks. So who the heck changes the permissions of .Xauthority if not me?
[21:12] <michaelaguiar> OerHeks: Oh I know the command, it keeps telling me it cant get exclusive access
[21:12] <michaelaguiar> mdadm: Cannot get exclusive access to /dev/md0:Perhaps a running process, mounted filesystem or active volume group?
[21:14] <Diyar> spac emma .. I think you are need connecting between the wireless with different band I mean spac you use /b and let emma use /n because emma doing for everyone sharing connection wihtout drivers
[21:14] <OerHeks> bwe that error is a known bug, from an update/upgrade.
[21:14] <k1l> xar: did you mess with the file permissions anywhere in the system?
[21:14] <xar> k1l, nope
[21:14] <michaelaguiar> OerHeks: any idea how I can stop this damn thing?
[21:14] <k1l> xar: what is the output of "groups" in terminal?

[21:15] <OerHeks> michaelaguiar, dunno, do you think the disc went bad?
[21:15] <k1l> xar: vboxusers  missing as group

[21:16] <Diyar> worry * spac
[21:17] <k1l> Diyar: please stop that in here
[21:17] <Diyar> k1l, it's not technical support for ubuntu?
[21:17] <k1l> xar: your user seems not to have the rights to run vbox since its not member of the group
[21:17] <Diyar> k1l, I help them with networking
[21:17] <Diyar> they have issue with ping between two IPs k1l
[21:18] <xar> k1l, but I'm the only root
[21:18] <k1l> Diyar: there are no messages from them in here. so please stop that.
[21:18] <k1l> xar: what? you are using root?
[21:18] <Diyar> k1l, they left to me before and now I am reply.. sorry for late
[21:19] <xar> k1l, i used to launch vms using the same user before until that error begins to occur
[21:19] <k1l> xar: put your user into the vboxusers group. then relogin to make sure the group is loaded. then try again
[21:20] <michaelaguiar> I get this error
[21:20] <xar> k1l, okay
[21:20] <michaelaguiar> mdadm: /dev/md0 has failed so using --add cannot work and might destroy
[21:20] <michaelaguiar> mdadm: data on /dev/sdb1.  You should stop the array and re-assemble it.
[21:20] <OerHeks> that would explain why, k1l +1
[21:20] <michaelaguiar> But it wont let me stop it!!!   How can I fix?

[21:21] <OerHeks> k1l, just beiing user should solve it i guess :-D
[21:21] <daftykins> RagingBuddha: no, it might just be thinking
[21:21] <xar> k1l, (y)
[21:22] <daftykins> xar: you were root the whole time? oh dear :(
[21:22] <xar> daftykins, nope
[21:22] <michaelaguiar> mdadm wont stop my array, and im losing my mind
[21:23] <RagingBuddha> daftykins: I was renaming bounch of folders and then ctrl+c and ctrl+v stopped working and I had to do it only by mouse (c/p). And now when I closed "Files" and reopened folders it's copying. Is it normal to be this buggy or am I to blame?
[21:24] <daftykins> RagingBuddha: pass.
[21:24] <RagingBuddha> ?
[21:24] <daftykins> gameshow pass, i don't know
[21:24] <RagingBuddha> :D
[21:24] <RagingBuddha> Ok
[21:25] <xar> k1l, it still the same :p
[21:26] <pragmaticenigma> RagingBuddha, it's not buggy. You are trying to transfer several gigs of data. moving that volume of data takes a few moments for the system to analyse before it will actually move anything. It would have been wise to start with a couple files first, then start moving more of them
[21:26] <k1l> xar: ok, does vboxusers appear in "groups"?
[21:26] <xar> k1l, yes http://pastebin.com/BKzB5cTN
[21:27] <k1l> xar: then please make a right click on the VM you want to start and then choose "show log" please show the log
[21:27] <pragmaticenigma> RagingBuddha, leave it be for a while, if you have something like nmon installed you can see if there is any disk activity
[21:27] <xar> k1l, http://pastebin.com/UsGN42cL
[21:28] <RagingBuddha> pragmaticenigma: it copied em once I closed and opened Files. But now I can't rename folder in my "Pictures". It's not saying I don't have permission, it's just ignoring my keyboard.
[21:28] <michaelaguiar> Anyone here know how to stop an mdadm array?
[21:28] <michaelaguiar> I know the command - but it keeps telling me I don’t have exclusive access
[21:29] <k1l> xar: "World writable: '/usr'"
[21:29] <pragmaticenigma> RagingBuddha, if the system isn't doing anything, you might want to try rebooting...
[21:29] <k1l> xar: you seem to have messed with your file permissions :/ ?
[21:29] <Josh1503> Can anyone help me with sudo wget? Trying to use it to create a file but it's incorrectly naming the file
[21:29] <pragmaticenigma> Josh1503, please show us the command you are using
[21:29] <xar> k1l, i don't remember doing that
[21:30] <Josh1503> pragmaticenigma: sudo wget -0 /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-rat5.conf https://iam.tj/projects/misc/rat5.conf
[21:30] <k1l> xar: "ls -al /"
[21:31] <Josh1503> It's for problems I've been having with my mouse not targetting the top window
[21:31] <xar> k1l, http://pastebin.com/Ni0T7UQa
[21:31] <k1l> xar: yes, too much folders have write acces. the permissions are a mess.
[21:32] <k1l> xar: seems like you did a chmod 777 on several folders
[21:32] <pragmaticenigma> Josh1503,  change the zero into the capital letter 'O'
[21:32] <k1l> xar: sudo chmod o-w /usr
[21:32] <Josh1503> Aaaaah ok, thanks. Will try it
[21:32] <Josh1503> If I can get into terminal -_-
[21:32] <k1l> xar: that will fix that vbox issue. but i would consider a reinstall of the system since a lot permissions are wrong and that is not fixable.
[21:33] <xar> k1l, it WORKS !!!
[21:33] <pragmaticenigma> Josh1503, if your terminal window is open, you can use Alt + Tab to switch to that window
[21:33] <xar> k1l, I haven't understood why the error triggers when the write permission is enabled
[21:33] <xar> k1l, thank you so much!
[21:33] <Josh1503> Yeah I know :P Used windows key & searched for it
[21:34] <k1l> xar: that is the error. your file-permissions give all access to any program. your system is very vulnerable
[21:34] <pragmaticenigma> What's a windows key? :-P
[21:35] <Josh1503> Ok I think I just need to delete the other duplicates, how would I do that in Terminal? :3
[21:35] <schoppenhauer> hello. how can I configure kde to do pm-suspend-hybrid instead of pm-suspend and pm-hibernate? (or at least give me an option to do so?)
[21:37] <pragmaticenigma> Josh1503, I'm not sure if you posted more details about the situation than I saw. Could you explain about the duplicate files?
[21:37] <Josh1503> I'll pm you :P
[21:41] <cromagi> question

[22:00] <pilsner_> i see the uuid in fstab but not in lshw or blkid
[22:02] <lotuspsychje> !blkid | pilsner_
[22:02] <lotuspsychje> pilsner_: maybe check also syslog or dmesg log for HD errors?
[22:04] <pilsner_> there was some problem at boot but i dont know the /dev disk only the uuid
[22:05] <lotuspsychje> pilsner_: what is an error like press c to continue?
[22:05] <pilsner_> BIG S
[22:05] <bwe> Thanks for help, folks.
[22:06] <lotuspsychje> pilsner_: sounds like a hd error, check your logs
[22:06] <pilsner_> I have the uuid but cant translate to a /dev
[22:07] <lotuspsychje> pilsner_: http://askubuntu.com/questions/120/how-do-i-avoid-the-s-to-skip-message-on-boot
[22:07] <MonkeyDust> pilsner_  does gparted see the /dev ?
[22:08] <pilsner_> Nope
[22:08] <maxade> is there any easy way to oinstall openssl for C programming on Ubuntu?
[22:08] <maxade> i have openssl itself but i want to program with it
[22:09] <pilsner_> back soon, have to pee
[22:09] <MonkeyDust> pilsner_  too much information
[22:09] <lotuspsychje> maxade: maybe the ##programming guys know this?
[22:09] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust: lol :p
[22:09] <maxade> lotuspsychje, everyone throws m,e around
[22:10] <lotuspsychje> maxade: just trying to help your odds
[22:10] <maxade> ty
[22:10] <lotuspsychje> maxade: did you check software centre or apt-cache for openssl relevant stuff?
[22:11] <maxade> lotuspsychje, yes
[22:11] <bellow> I am trying to reconnect my Magnavox MBP 5120 blu-ray player to my Linksys routers wifi (which I have done before without trouble) and I am getting DHCP cannot be acquired. I have change the IP Address to manual on the blu-ray player without changing the IP address itself and no error. I have checked the routers settings and DHCP is enabled. Is the
[22:11] <maxade> i have openssl installed
[22:11] <bellow> re a way to fix this?
[22:11] <maxade> but not for programming
[22:12] <pilsner_> back
[22:12] <lotuspsychje> maxade: not sure wich package you need for that, apt-cache show a whole list
[22:12] <lotuspsychje> bellow: check the ##networking channel
[22:13] <bellow> lotuspsychje: They will not lt me talk
[22:13] <bellow> or help me
[22:13] <agent_white> Afternoon!
[22:13] <ablest1980> any programs better then wine for running window programs on ubuntu?
[22:14] <lotuspsychje> !info playonlinux | ablest1980
[22:14] <lotuspsychje> agent_white: hello mate
[22:14] <schoppenhauer> *push* how can I configure kde to do pm-suspend-hybrid instead of pm-suspend and pm-hibernate? (or at least give me an option to do so?)
[22:14] <ablest1980> !info playonlinux
[22:15] <maxade> lotuspsychje, building from source, hopefully that works
[22:15] <lotuspsychje> maxade: good luck :p
[22:15] <ablest1980> lotuspsychje is playonlinux available at ubuntu software center?
[22:15] <pilsner_> bellow ifup ifdown?
[22:15] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: you can sudo apt-get install playonlinux (from terminal)
[22:16] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: wich software are you trying to run on ubuntu?
[22:16] <ablest1980> ubuntu software center says playonlinux is a game
[22:17] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: you can install windows software on it also
[22:17] <ablest1980> kindle for pc,britannica and esword bible software
[22:17] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: you can check their database online
[22:18] <ablest1980> do i need wine then playonliunx?
[22:20] <lotuspsychje> ablest1980: if you install it, it will install all depending packages also
[22:20] <pilsner_> How do i see a disk not mounted?
[22:20] <ablest1980> ok lotus ty
[22:20] <ablest1980> :)
[22:21] <budg> what the hell, I installed ubuntu, and it has amazon software on it
[22:21] <ablest1980> lol
[22:22] <pilsner_> more hell than amazon on it...you have to learn stuff about how computer works
[22:24] <budg> like how to uninstall amazon?
[22:24] <k1l> budg: see privacy settings in system settings
[22:25] <pilsner_> Nope learn about computers the world will be a better place
[22:25] <k1l> and fyi, the backing servers are shut down. so its not sending to amazon
[22:25] <Aqua> if I do ¨cat /dev/block/mmblck0p25 > mmblck0p25.raw¨, does that clone the partition bit for bit into a raw file?
[22:25] <RagingBuddha> Any photographer?
[22:26] <pilsner_> vgfk.se/
[22:28] <bellow> I am trying to reprint a couple of picture and the print photo on my printer makes them too small so I was going to scan them but my scan menu has no scan to computer. I press scan menu and get the following can and reprint, Scan to memory card, HP Photosmart Share(which is grayed out) and scan to computer I press down to the scan to computer and i
[22:28] <bellow> t says No scan options Refer to device documentation to troubleshoot Press ok to continue. Now I have scanned from this printer before. Is there anyway to get it to scan again. I have the software installed
[22:30] <pilsner_> Shit im drunk and Swedish
[22:30] <budg> ubuntu keeps crashing
[22:31] <Aqua> if I do ¨cat /dev/block/mmblck0p25 > mmblck0p25.raw¨, does that clone the partition bit for bit into a raw file?
[22:31] <imbezol> Aqua: use dd
[22:31] <Helperx> i have a question would it be bad to use reiserfs for boot partiton for faster boot or ext2?
[22:31] <Aqua> dd does the same but slower right imbezol ?
[22:32] <Helperx> also is it wrong to use reisefs being that he killed someone idk moral issue
[22:33] <imbezol> Aqua: i've never seen someone try to copy a partition with cat
[22:33] <daftykins> Helperx: separate /boot is about as much of a waste of time as using reiserfs :)
[22:33] <imbezol> Aqua: i know that dd was pretty much meant for that
[22:33] <imbezol> Aqua: it allows you to set your block size, see progress, etc
[22:33] <Walex> imbezol: it is just probably a bit slower than 'dd'
[22:33] <Stary2001> well now you have
[22:33] <Stary2001> :p
[22:33] <pilsner_>  reiserfs for boot partiton for faster boot or ext2.... ill go for ext3.....
[22:33] <Helperx> so using a different filsystem for boot wont make it fster?
[22:34] <Helperx> faster*
[22:34] <Helperx> also for root partiton im not sure if i shuld use xfs or jfs?
[22:34] <Aqua> ah, alright imbezol. well, im using cat atm along with pv for the progress
[22:34] <Helperx> whats faster?
[22:34] <irreverant> i have an a ssd driver hooked up through a usb connection
[22:35] <irreverant> and i'm running ubuntu in a vmware player
[22:35] <irreverant> on my windows box
[22:35] <pilsner_> go for ext3 easier to rebuild.......
[22:35] <irreverant> http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/tr-dojo/reset-windows-passwords-with-the-help-of-linux/
[22:35] <irreverant> is what i'm trying to accomplish
[22:35] <irreverant> how can i navigate in a terminal window to the mounted windows drive?
[22:35] <Helperx> hm
[22:35] <Aqua> imbezol, i need to get a partition of my android phone which wiped itself for some reason. so i can later get the lost files out of the raw file
[22:35] <irreverant> it wants me to use nautilus but i don't see it
[22:36] <Helperx> aqua are you trying to recover it from the actual internal storage of the android
[22:36] <imbezol> Aqua: gotcha. ddrescue is also great for backing up partitions with errors
[22:36] <Helperx> it can be done i have done it but its a long procedure
[22:36] <bellow> I am trying to reconnect my Magnavox MBP 5120 blu-ray player to my Linksys routers wifi (which I have done before without trouble) and I am getting DHCP cannot be acquired. I have change the IP Address to manual on the blu-ray player without changing the IP address itself and no error. I have checked the routers settings and DHCP is enabled. Is the
[22:36] <bellow> re a way to fix this?
[22:36] <imbezol> Aqua: it can be told to skip bad / unreadable blocks etc
[22:36] <daftykins> irreverant: pretty terrible method, there are far easier ways
[22:36] <imbezol> Aqua: something like cat or regular dd would choke at those spots
[22:37] <agent_white> bellow: Hop into your router and add a DHCP reservation for your bluray player to the IP you gave it.
[22:37] <OerHeks> irreverant, changing passwords, tru ubuntu in a VM, on the windows box you want to edit?
[22:37] <irreverant> its running windows 8
[22:37] <irreverant> yes
[22:37] <Aqua> I´m not yet advanced enough to understand all of it. So I´m hoping this just works imbezol....
[22:38] <agent_white> Aqua: Excuses to learn are the best excuses!
[22:38] <imbezol> irreverant: it's probably a lot easier to just download a bootable iso made explicitly to do what you're attempting to do
[22:38] <OerHeks> that guide says boot a live iso, not a vm. escaping from a vm is difficult.
[22:38] <pilsner_> test freenas
[22:39] <irreverant> i tried everything before this method
[22:39] <daftykins> irreverant: that doesn't seem likely given there are easier ways :)
[22:39] <imbezol> everything hey? :)
[22:39] <Aqua> Yeah agent_white. I´ll probably take away the write permissions of the /data/media partition so that I can use my phone safely without destroying bits of leftover data.
[22:39] <irreverant> daftykins, i think i did it successfully
[22:39] <bellow> agent_white: Trried that
[22:40] <daftykins> irreverant: why are you here then? if you've done it...
[22:40] <pilsner_> Linnnux is the future, but you nead to know what yoour doing....
[22:40] <compdoc> I am the future
[22:41] <pilsner_> im the past and drunk..........
[22:41] <agent_white> Aqua: Sounds like the best option is to just dd the device, then hope for the best :)
[22:41] <daftykins> !ot | pilsner_
[22:41] <ablest1980> youre past and youre out
[22:41] <irreverant> daftykins, cause i was impatient and wasn't sure, didn't trust myself
[22:41] <irreverant> Yes I did get it
[22:41] <pilsner_> and drunk...
[22:41] <ablest1980> drunk as a shunk?
[22:41] <irreverant> I was able to unlock the the Local Administrator account for windows 8 and reset the password to blank
[22:42] <agent_white> bellow: Remove the dhcp reservation, remove the ip you assigned to the bluray player, and let dhcp do the work.   Are you familiar with packet capture methods? (tcpdump, wireshark... etc.) It would be very helpful to see what's on the wire.
[22:42] <daftykins> irreverant: then you don't need to be here anymore, Windows talk is off topic here.
[22:42] <bellow> agent_white:I have
[22:42] <irreverant> later
[22:42] <bellow> does not help
[22:42] <agent_white> bellow: Have you done a packet capture?
[22:42] <pilsner_> ill still tranlata from Swdish to what ewrver this is
[22:42] <agent_white> bellow: You will literally see what the issue is, I guarantee it.
[22:42] <bellow> agent_white: I do not know how
[22:43] <Aqua> agent_white, are you sure dd does something different than im doing with cat right now? i looked up some differences but it seems to be doing the same, just dd has some extra special options that are rarely used on modern hardware
[22:43] <agent_white> bellow: Are you familiar with wireshark?
[22:43] <daftykins> bellow: you should probably ask this in ##networking since it doesn't have anything to do with ubuntu
[22:43] <bellow> nope
[22:43] <bellow> daftykins: I cannaot ask there
[22:43] <daftykins> why?
[22:44] <bellow> == Cannot send message to channel, you are not voiced
[22:44] <daftykins> !register | bellow
[22:44] <daftykins> bellow: not registering on freenode does not make all of your questions ubuntu support ones, i'm afraid
[22:44] <pilsner_> uuid to /dev????
[22:44] <agent_white> Aqua: Not sure what `cat` command you're doing... but dd copies blocks, which is (I believe) the 'closest to the metal' copy available on linux.
[22:44] <bellow> daftykins:I am
[22:44] <agent_white> Aqua: So... I would recommend doing both! Your `cat` and `dd` :)
[22:44] <agent_white> Why not, eh?
[22:45] <sdika> anybody here good with the linux terminal command that can help me?
[22:45] <daftykins> !ask | sdika
[22:45] <agent_white> sdika: Ask, don't ask to ask!
[22:46] <Aqua> alright agent_white. ill lock the /data/media after the cat finished, and then ill do the dd later :). after that ill just unlock it again and use it again because ive made exact copies of them
[22:46] <maxvi> how can I disable snapping window in cinnamon DE ? is cinnamon not use compiz ?
[22:47] <Helperx> this channel is ubuntu not linux mint
[22:47] <Aqua> agent_white, any recomendations to recover files from the raw file? testdisk maybe?
[22:47] <agent_white> Aqua: Sounds like a plan!  May even be able to skip on the dd once you see how successful the cat worked
[22:47] <daftykins> bellow: anyway, 100% likely is you should reboot that router or re-enter the wireless password as it could be wrong
[22:47] <bellow> Password is right
[22:48] <Aqua> agent_white, how do i check how succesful the cat was? by trying to recover files from it?
[22:48] <daftykins> Helperx: who was that comment aimed at? you should use nicknames so everyone knows
[22:48] <maxvi> Helperx: I am not using mint, I use  cinnamon de but nobody knows nothing about that setting in archlinux, linuxmint, linux channels :(
[22:48] <daftykins> bellow: re-enter it anyway :)
[22:48] <bellow> UI HAVE
[22:48] <daftykins> bellow: using caps won't get you anywhere
[22:48] <Helperx> i know alot aobut arch linux
[22:48] <agent_white> Aqua: What command are you doing exactly? -- But yup, that's the best way!
[22:49] <sdika> theres a website that has albanian music i want to download, each folder on the website has the songs listed and i have to manually right click save target as to download.... my question is there a easier way to download all the songs in each folder into my music folder using linux terminal??
[22:49] <Helperx> i can answer your question maxvi
[22:49] <Aqua> agent_white: adb shell su -c "cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p25" | pv > mmcblk0p25.raw
[22:50] <sdika> or better yet download all the songs on the server website onto my harddrive?
[22:50] <maxvi> Helperx: I saw dconf editor and found nothing about that , I know how I can do it in ccsm (window -> snapping window) but seems like cinnamon don't use it
[22:50] <Helperx> what are you trying to actually do maxvi
[22:51] <bellow> I have to enter the passkey everytime
[22:51] <bellow> still get the error
[22:51] <agent_white> Aqua: Oh! Already dumping blocks there so you'll be fine without dd.  Once it's finished just mount it and check to see if all your files are there :)
[22:52] <daftykins> bellow: that's probably your player's way of saying "no, this is wrong" else it would store it. anyway, off topic here.
[22:52] <bellow> It is not wronf
[22:52] <Aqua> I did one cat of the full device before this agent_white
[22:52] <maxvi> Helperx: I try to disable "snapping window" in cinnamon like that checkbox in ubuntu (unity). see "Snapping Window" checkbox https://manijshrestha.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/compiz-win.png
[22:52] <Aqua> but testdisk didnt find partitions
[22:52] <Aqua> so now i do this one
[22:52] <Aqua> all the data got wiped of it after an usb error agent_white
[22:53] <Helperx> what distro are you using maxvi
[22:53] <Aqua> hope to find that back
[22:53] <maxvi> Helperx: arch with cinnamon DE
[22:53] <EriC^^> ^^^ ???
[22:53] <daftykins> maxvi: you should not be in here.
[22:54] <daftykins> !arch
[22:54] <maxvi> Helperx: it depends on distro ? I thought it depends only on DE.
[22:54] <daftykins> damn, no factoid
[22:54] <agent_white> Aqua: Hm... what about the `mount` route instead? -- use `fdisk -l` to find the startblock/offset of the partition you want to mount, then just mount through `mount`
[22:54] <Helperx> well
[22:54] <maxvi> daftykins: I was there and #linuxmint and #linux and and and :)
[22:54] <agent_white> Aqua: This better explains it -- http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/how-to-mount-img-file-882386/
[22:54] <daftykins> maxvi: yep, not getting a reply doesn't make your problem an ubuntu one
[22:55] <daftykins> i don't take my car to the plumber to get fixed, just because the mechanic is busy
[22:55] <Helperx> first of all i suggest you acutally use linux mint if your preferred desktop environment is cinnanon
[22:56] <Aqua> agent_white, does that work for raw files too?
[22:56] <Helperx> using arch and then using cinannon is counter initituative
[22:56] <vacho> can someone help me investigate if my machine is being used for botnet?
[22:56] <Helperx> its like installing unity on arch
[22:56] <ruskiesgg> maxvi: it may be a compiz setting
[22:56] <Helperx> lol
[22:57] <agent_white> Aqua: Yessir!
[22:57] <pilsner_> fucked up ifconfig....
[22:57] <Helperx> i strongly recommend using kde in arch
[22:57] <cyberpolice> how can i login to welcome screen without physical keyboard? is there touch/virtual keyboard i can use
[22:58] <Aqua> thank you so much agent_white , i really apreciate it
[22:58] <ubuntu-studio> olavoteixera
[22:58] <Helperx> and if your not using an amd computer than use gnome
[22:58] <Aqua> agent_white, would deleted files also show up with the mount? or do i need to do something extra for that?
[22:58] <agent_white> Aqua: No worries! Hope it all goes well!
[22:58] <ruskiesgg> Helperx: what's AMD have to do with gnome
[22:58] <Helperx> proprietry driver wont allow gnome
[22:59] <agent_white> Aqua: Ahhh hrm... I'm not sure what exactly happens to deleted files in Android? Not quite sure about that.
[22:59] <Aqua> Probably the same as in linux
[22:59] <ruskiesgg> Helperx: bull.
[22:59] <Aqua> it does use ext4 agent_white
[22:59] <ruskiesgg> Helperx: I done it
[22:59] <Helperx> using arch?
[22:59] <Aqua> and someone used this method with testdisk
[23:01] <ruskiesgg> Helperx: no with ubuntu. Why pull my hair out with arch when ubuntu just works in most cases,
[23:01] <Helperx> lol im talking about arch and gnome
[23:01] <Helperx> and or feodra
[23:02] <Helperx> with ubuntu yea its easy lol
[23:02] <Helperx> i have done it so many times lol
[23:02] <freeroute> hi, I'm trying to find the resize2fs program for 14.04 without any luck. I'm trying to resize my LVM LV as per this document - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/40702/how-to-manage-and-use-lvm-logical-volume-management-in-ubuntu/?PageSpeed=noscript
[23:02] <agent_white> Aqua: Hm... I'm not familiar with undeleting to be honest!  Though after some searching, the `extundelete` tool looks promising.
[23:03] <agent_white> Helperx: KDE on Arch? Why ruin it with bloat? i3 or awesome ftw :)
[23:03] <EriC^^> freeroute: type echo $PATH
[23:03] <Helperx> well cuz i have amd lol
[23:03] <agent_white> wat
[23:04] <Helperx> and using propierty drivers dont work well on other enviroments
[23:04] <PeQuEnO_TuX> whats up all
[23:04] <agent_white> Heh... I think you may be missing a step somewhere ;)
[23:04] <agent_white> That is certainly not true.
[23:04] <agent_white> PeQuEnO_TuX: \o
[23:04] <Aqua> Thanks agent_white, I´ll give those things a try, most important is I´ve got an exact copy so I can safely use my phone again and so I can keep on trying! I´ll be going soon, have a nice evening.
[23:05] <PeQuEnO_TuX> does any1 have experience with ubuntu and ppc computs
[23:05] <agent_white> Aqua: Exactly! And know you know how to clone any block device in the future! :D Cheers!
[23:05] <agent_white> !ask | PeQuEnO_TuX
[23:06] <Marasgeon> can I make backspace to send me to the previous folder and not in the parent folder in nautilus?
[23:08] <wavis> I get a blinking cursor on a black low res screen when booting from the latest live usb image 14.10 desktop. what's the issue?
[23:09] <EriC^^> !nomodeset | wavis try this
[23:10] <EriC^^> Marasgeon: i found something cool, press alt+left arrow
[23:10] <freeroute> EriC^^: sorry I have to resort to a screenshot but I have no space left on there to add a pastebin alias to .bashrc - http://i.imgur.com/f4PPQ5I.png
[23:11] <freeroute> hence the need to resize :p
[23:11] <EriC^^> yikes
[23:11] <budg> thoughts on best browser for ubuntu?
[23:11] <freeroute> budg: w3m hands down the best
[23:12] <EriC^^> !find resize2fs
[23:12] <freeroute> ah cool lemme see
[23:12] <Marasgeon> EriC^^: can i set this function with backspace?
[23:12] <freeroute> I hope I can install that lol
[23:12] <EriC^^> Marasgeon: i don't know
[23:13] <Marasgeon> ok man thanks anyway
[23:13] <EriC^^> freeroute: you need to install e2fsprogs
[23:14] <freeroute> apparently I already have e2fsprogs
[23:14] <freeroute> this is not a good sign :(
[23:14] <EriC^^> freeroute: that's odd
[23:14] <Exploith> apple should've never release 4gb ram mac minis. its impossible to do anything on it. trying to get my boss to get me more ram is hard hell
[23:14] <EriC^^> type ls -ld /sbin/resize2fs
[23:14] <Exploith> hmm
[23:16] <budg> is it ok that there are a lot of y's being typed automatically in bash while I bashed' an sh file?
[23:16] <EriC^^> freeroute: ^
[23:16] <ruskiesgg> Exploith: What do u expect from a company that brainwashed its users into thinking a one button mouse was better than two buttons for years.
[23:17] <budg> i'm getting worried that i should have just used the gui
[23:18] <freeroute> EriC^^: this is very strange, it found it... but I think the situation got worse - http://imgur.com/c0Fc0kP
[23:18] <freeroute> this could mean that it can't resize because there is no space
[23:19] <freeroute> wait, perhaps I should unmount it first?
[23:20] <EriC^^> yeah, try that
[23:24] <PeQuEnO_TuX> back
[23:25] <PeQuEnO_TuX> ok ubottu ill try do right my next questions but i already find the problem
[23:32] <michaelaguiar> I have a software raid, using mdadm I do assemble —scan and it says assembled from 22 drives and 2 spares, not enough to start the array
[23:32] <michaelaguiar> mdstat says inactive, and has all the drives marked spare (S)
[23:33] <michaelaguiar> can someone give me a hand getting this back up?
[23:38] <freeroute> man this LVM...
[23:39] <compdoc> I hate lvm
[23:40] <daftykins> yeah, i never use it.
[23:40] <daftykins> 'tis black magic to me
[23:51] <michaelaguiar> ok I got my array up, but still 2 drives are marked as spare.  How can I get those activated?  Anyone know?  mdadm
[23:52] <daftykins> pretty sure i said they were damaged earlier
[23:52] <daftykins> so i would work on them first.
[23:52] <michaelaguiar> Well I think I got it all figured out, just trying to get the spares back in now
[23:52] <daftykins> but they're reporting errors?
[23:52] <daftykins> = they're unhappy
[23:55] <supay> hey, i can install any gui environment for ubuntu, and that wont affect anything else, right?
[23:55] <EriC^^> supay: not really
[23:55] <supay> EriC^^: what would you suggest for a virtual machine? i'd like to keep it light..
[23:55] <supay> gnome makes it way too slow, and i dont really need it
[23:56] <EriC^^> xubuntu or lxde
[23:56] <EriC^^> lxde would be pretty quicker, i find xubuntu with arch even slow in a vm
[23:56] <EriC^^> *xcfe
[23:56] <supay> EriC^^: ah, perfect! is there something like sudo apt-get install lxde or something?
[23:56] <supay> xcfe?
[23:56] <EriC^^> *xfce

[23:57] <supay> raven_: dist-upgrade
[23:57] <raven_> lunix mint. rebecca. cinnamin
[23:57] <supay> EriC^^: but i thought you said xfce? :O
[23:58] <EriC^^> supay: do you want lxde or xfce?
[23:58] <freeroute> ok... change of strategy. Is the ~/.Skype dir enough to give me logs of all messages which have been for that user or do I have to get more stuff from the filesystem?
[23:58] <supay> EriC^^: whichever is faster
[23:58] <raven_> how do i do that?
[23:58] <EriC^^> lxde is
[23:58] <daftykins> raven_: if you partitioned it with a separate /home, you could keep formatting / and installing whichever distro there, almost.
[23:58] <supay> EriC^^: ah, awesome! thanks :)
[23:58] <EriC^^> supay: no problem :)
[23:59] <freeroute> EriC^^: LXDE is no longer maintained right? All devs went to LXQT IIRC.
[23:59] <wavis> EriC^^: nomodeset and and acpi option didn't work. still black
