xanguad001fdkn: you have greater issues than your graphic card, please use a supproted ubuntu release02:32
Jordan_Ud001fdkn: You most likely will not have this problem with Ubuntu 14.04, which is probably the version you should use. You definitely should *not* use Ubuntu 12.10. Other reasonable choices include Ubuntu 12.04 and Ubuntu 14.10.02:33
d001fdknxangua, Jordan_U  ok but how can i do that with the message on my screen now?02:33
daftykinsd001fdkn: 12.10 as mentioned is dead and unsupported. put something new on then we can help (:02:34
redlama42Plus, pretty sure 12.10 has stopped getting security updates. That's dangerous.02:34
daftykinsyes, ages ago02:34
daftykins!12.1002:34
ubottuUbuntu 12.10 (Quantal Quetzal) was the 17th release of Ubuntu.  Support ended on May 16th, 2014. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/quantal02:34
EriC^^ctrl+alt+f1 the upgrade02:34
daftykinsnearly a year02:34
Jordan_Ud001fdkn: The simplest solution would be to boot from an Ubuntu 14.04 LiveDVD or LiveUSB and install Ubuntu 14.04.02:34
EriC^^!eolupgrades02:34
ubottuEnd-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades02:34
d001fdknJordan_U, I need to back up02:35
EriC^^fresh install would be best as Jordan_U suggests02:35
Jordan_Ud001fdkn: OK. You should be able to backup your files in "low graphics mode".02:35
d001fdkn<EriC^^> yes I agree, but I need to back up02:36
EriC^^back up then02:36
EriC^^you can do it ;)02:36
ceobbcade as bucetas?02:37
ax562how can I figure out if I have all my proper drivers installed?02:37
Jordan_Ud001fdkn: And if your instructor recommended that you install Ubuntu 12.10, please tell them that we recommend that in the future they at least suggest that students use a long term support release of Ubuntu, and to never suggest that students run an EOL release.02:37

sheena1I'm trying to figure out how to connect two computers together via a usb cable. I can get them to ping each other and even get the ssh connectio up successfuly, but only for a minute or two before it "disconnects" via the network manager (I think). does anyone know how I can control the timeout on the network manager, or some other work around?02:50

=== cenobite is now known as cenobite_
Jordan_Usheena1: Why not use an ethernet cable?02:57
sheena1i dont have a crossover cable or access to a router02:59
sheena1and this is working, if i could gt it to stop disconnecting...02:59
Jordan_Usheena1: Do you have a straight through cable? For modern hardware you rarely need a crossover cable?02:59
sheena1everything i've read says i need a cross over cable.. i have one still in a packae that i can try, but was hoping to return it since this usb one works03:00
Jordan_Usheena1: Ethernet over USB is a little obscue. Connecting two USB peripherals together is more obscure. Connecting two USB hosts together is even more obscue. Doing USB over ethernet between two hosts is pretty darn obscure, which means that bugs should be expected as it's rarely tested. So please file a bug report as this bug isn't likely to be hit through normal testing, but if you want a reliable working system then ...03:03
Jordan_U... just use an ethernet cable.03:03

nylon100My friend told me he got "nazim" for his keyboard, or PC. But, WTF is nazim ? :-)03:03
Jordan_Unylon100: How does that relate to Ubuntu?03:04
cenobite_Hi, This is probably a silly question, but has anyone got xpenguins too work in 14.04?03:05
agent_whitecenobite_: What's silly is not asking what issue you're having! ;)03:05
nylon100Jordan_U: We talked about something related to Ubuntu and then he said "Oh, and I got some nazim for my keyboard" and I continued with "Aha" like a jerk, without understanding what nazim means. Maybe I mistakenly heard something else. But it is very close to how you pronounce "nazim". No idea?03:06

=== google-hacker is now known as bynarie
=== bobsmith123 is now known as google-hacker
Jordan_Usheena1: The connection should not be constantly resetting, so the fact that it is implies that there is either a hardware problem or a software bug. I'm guessing it's a software bug.03:07
sheena1its never connecting03:08
geektech713new router?03:08
sheena1its trying to connect, but never succeedig, so it stops trying after a bit of time03:08
sheena1maybe... 2 mintes?03:08
agent_whitecenobite_: Maybe try stopping the daemon, `tail -f /var/log/kern.log`, and starting up the daemon to see what's happening?03:08
cenobite_ok thank-you angent_white :)03:09
Jordan_Usheena1: "and this is working, if i could gt it to stop disconnecting". So, in what way is this setup "working"?03:09
sheena1i can ping03:09
sheena1i can transfer files03:09
sheena1but after about 2 minutes03:10
sheena1i have to redo some commands03:10
sheena1to get it to work again03:10
sheena1shoul i paste them here?03:10
sheena1in computer A: sudo ifconfig usb0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.255 up;   sudo route add -host 192.168.1.2 usb003:10
sheena1In computer B: sudo ifconfig usb0 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.255 up;  sudo route add -host 192.168.1.1 usb003:10
sheena1ometimes i only have to redo computer A03:11
Jordan_Usheena1: "its never connecting" How can that be true if you're able to ping? Is it that network manager is never detecting that it has successfully connected even though it has?03:11
sheena1i guess so. if you define "able to ping" as successfully connected03:11
Jordan_Usheena1: What definition of "not connected" allows for files to be transferred over the "not connected" link?03:12
skweekwhy isn't my webcam working in flash?03:13
sheena1um... the gui thingy says "You are disconnected" .. :)03:13
skweekNo Camera Selected03:14
Jordan_Usheena1: OK.03:18
agent_whitesheena1: You may need to get some packet traces to see what all is going on :)03:18
sheena1Jordan_U: but you're right, obviously it IS connected03:18
sheena1agent_white: I'm not sure how to do that, but I'm interested03:18
agent_whitesheena1: Definitely the best time to learn it!03:18
Jordan_Usheena1: You're not using network manager to create this connection, so I'm not surprised that it doesn't show it.03:18
agent_whitesheena1: I would recommend wireshark to start off. Then you'll be able to select that interface and capture all traffic on it.03:19
Jordan_Usheena1: Please pastebin the output of "nm-tool".03:19
sheena1installing wireshark now03:20
sheena1http://pastebin.com/KnrJWNBj03:20
Jordan_Usheena1: OK, I would recommend simply setting up the connection in network manager rather than using ifconfig and route.03:22
sheena1i tried... i had zero success. ideas?03:23
Jordan_Usheena1: What exactly did you try?03:23
sheena1clicking "Connect" ?03:23
agent_whitesheena1: I think that using `ip` would be the best (basically the same as you were doing before).03:23
sheena1changing the values in the GUI of network manager to various ip things03:23
agent_whiteMuch better to use the CLI instead of a GUI to get into the nitty of things.03:23
ax562how can I figure out if I have all my proper drivers installed?03:24
sheena1nmcli? i've never used it, but i could try.. i guess i didnt realize that nmcli and the stuff i'm doing now arent thes ame03:24
agent_whiteI doubt those settings are off, rather it being a setting on the interface that needs to be adjusted (I _THINK_).03:24
CodmadnessproHow would I allow only RSA login though ssh?03:25
Jordan_Usheena1: Use nm-connection-editor to add a manual connection, using the same ip address and mask you specified with ifconfig.03:26
agent_whiteCodmadnesspro: Inside /etc/ssh/sshd_config, there's a line "RSAAuthentication", uncomment it and make sure it says "RSAAuthentication yes" and that "PubkeyAuthentication" is commented out.03:26
sheena1i'll have to look up the syntax. is there anythingi should do to reset/undo what i've done so far?03:27
sheena1and i'll do this on both machines i assume?03:27
Jordan_Usheena1: Yes, with different ip addresses of course.03:28
agent_whitesheena1: I recommend that you peek at wireshark first before doing anything more :)03:28
Jordan_Usheena1: And actually your subnet mask should be 255.255.255.254 , since there are two ip addresses on this network.03:28
agent_whiteCan't fix an issue without seeing what's causing it!03:28
sheena1different from the ones i've already used, you mean? just pick some? like, 10.0.0.1 ?03:29
Jordan_Usheena1: No, I mean different from each other.03:29
sheena1oh sorry. yes03:29
sheena1i was just changing the last digit.. 1 and 203:29
sheena1that is ok, right?03:29
Jordan_Usheena1: Yes.03:29
sheena1i just read that in a tutorial online..03:30
r_await255.255.255.252?03:30
ax562how can I figure out if I have all my proper drivers installed?03:31
sheena1so im trying to find nm-connection-editor syntax and it tells me its the GUI interface.. ? is that correct, Jordan_U?03:32
Jordan_Usheena1: Yes.03:32
sheena1i will try it again, but i've done that already and it did not work. you want me to CREATE a wired connection? not edit the existing one?03:33
Jordan_Usheena1: Just run "nm-connection-editor". You can also get to the same thing from the network manager applet, but I don't have nm-applet in front of me at the moment to say how.03:33
agent_whiteax562: More importantly, what makes you think they aren't?03:33
Jordan_Usheena1: Yes, create a wired network.03:33

sheena1no gateway?03:35
Codmadnessproagent_white, it shouldve worked though even if i restarted the whole thing or not, I can still login with password03:35
Jordan_Usheena1: Are you trying to access the internet connection available to one machine from the other, or are you only trying to communicate between the two machines?03:35
agent_whiteCodmadnesspro: Have you already generated your ssh keys, and copied them to the remote box?03:36
sheena1im trying to communicate between them, but the first option would be better.. i assume the second is easier, since oyu said 'only'03:36
sheena1if the other machine could use internet, this would be a non issue, obviouly :)03:36
Codmadnessproagent_white, yes I can use my ssh keys to login03:37
agent_whiteCodmadnesspro: Is "PasswordAuthentication no" in your sshd_config?03:37
agent_whiteAs well as "ChallengeResponseAuthentication no" ?03:37
Jordan_Usheena1: If you want to share an internet connection, then on the machine connected to the interent set the connection to "Shared to other computers", then simply connect the other machine (the first machine will start a DHCP server, so no manual configuration of the second is needed).03:37
Codmadnessproyes03:38
=== PaulCape_ is now known as PaulCapestany
agent_whiteCodmadnesspro: Is the password for the user on the box being asked, or did you set a passphrase on your id_rsa file?03:38
Jordan_Usheena1: That will allow you to transfer files between the two machines, as well as allowing the second machine to use the first's internet connection.03:39
Codmadnessproagent_white, no password was set in the keys, I can just goto the user and login with normal password03:39

agent_whiteIf it wasn't,  you wouldn't be able to even ping in the first place.03:46

sheena1should i click "auto ethernet" in the GUI menu on computer 2's taskbar?03:47
Jordan_Usheena1: No. You should, if anything, click the name of the connection you just made (presumably "Jordan", since that's what you were naming the network in your last screenshot).03:48

agent_whiteCodmadnesspro: Before doing so, stop the sshd service, of course.03:51
sheena1Jordan_U: if i should just use the internet, that's fine..03:52
Jordan_Usheena1: You can now use scp/sshfs/samba/... between the two machines. "ifconfig" will tell you the ip address network-manager automatically setup.03:52

ubottuThe main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList07:09
divBy0cfhowlett are you a bot07:09
BinaryFallenI had 2 partitions. One was a 100 gig win7 partition and the other was the rest of a tb that was a data parition that had my data on it. I overwrote the data one by accident. I used test disk to recover the 100 gig but I can't figure out how to recover my data drive07:10
BinaryFallenI basically have 900 gigs of free space and I'm trying to figure out how to change it so I can't make a new parition or bring back my old one on the 900 gigs to see if I can recover data07:11
BinaryFallenany ideas?07:11
divBy0if it shows as free i seriously doubt you are going to be able to get much off of it. you can try some of the forensic tools in a kali-linux live distro07:12
BinaryFallenhttp://pastebin.com/fNbpDaiF current disk structure07:13
divBy0maybe some of the windows recovery tools as a miracle but again i highly doubt it if windows is reporting that space as free07:13
BinaryFallenI mean if I can just recover the pictures I would be happy any ideas on specific software for that?07:13
divBy0theres a few. you'll probably get very little but hold on i'll look for what i've used in the past07:14
BinaryFallenthanks I appreciate that07:14
divBy0when you formatted was it in windows07:15
BinaryFallenyes, specifically and I will just get this out there I will be upfront about what happened.07:15
BinaryFallenI installed a shady version of win8 or was trying to07:15
fnordismi got a problem07:15
BinaryFallenthis version was unattended I guess and auto wiped my paritions07:15
fnordismi can't see the fnord07:15
BinaryFallenI immediatly shut off the pc when I saw this07:15
BinaryFallenso I think it just took away the partition table for it07:16
BinaryFallenor so I hope07:16
divBy0BinaryFallen, well in a way that might be better for you because it probably did a quick format -- did it seem to take a while to format?07:16
BinaryFallennegative07:16
BinaryFallenit was rapid07:16
BinaryFallenand I turned it off asap07:16
divBy0BinaryFallen, i dont see any info about disk usage in that pastebin07:16
divBy0BinaryFallen, well theres hope07:16
BinaryFallenI mean I can see this as karma for trying to install a shady version of an OS so if thats what happens thats what happens I just hope I didn't cost myself 5 years of photos07:17
divBy0BinaryFallen, i dont know about that i only install shady windows07:18
BinaryFallenhaha07:18
BinaryFallenwell I don't want to sound like sombody whos going to make up an excuse about what happened ya know?07:19
BinaryFallenBetter to just be forth coming07:19
divBy0BinaryFallen, while i'm looking, can you download a kali-linux live iso07:19
BinaryFallenalready have one07:19
divBy0BinaryFallen, https://www.google.com/search?q=kali%20linux%20data%20recovery&gws_rd=ssl07:19

BinaryFallenAppreciate the help07:20
divBy0BinaryFallen, first thing i would do if i were you though because thats going to take a lot of trial and error is try and get more info on drive partitioning07:20

tresk_K`zan: I'm pretty sure you can remove it from the "software centre" app. Flight sim might be affected while you don't have the NVidia proprietary driver07:57
tresk_You can keep an eye on the bug though, and reinstall the proprietary driver when it's resolved.07:59
K`zantresk_:  Thanks, looking for it now.08:01
K`zantresk_: Funny, this is the first kernel update where it was a problem, just interesting for a problem that has apparently been around for a while.08:01
tresk_K`zan: You might also be able to manually install the NV drivers from http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us08:02
tresk_At least until ubuntu's packaged ones work08:02

azizLIGHTim on 14.04 and im getting a message: "not all updates can be installed" run a partial upgrade, to install as many updates as possible. this can be caused by: * a previous upgrade which didn't complete * problems with some of the installed software * unofficial software packages not provided by ubuntu * normal changes of a pre-release version of ubuntu12:27
azizLIGHTbuttons are: settings... / partial upgrade / continue12:27
azizLIGHTwhat is this about and how do i fix it?12:28
MrokiiazizLIGHT: I think it's caused by third party repositories usually, when certain dependencies can't be satisfied.12:30
azizLIGHTand where can i find such details and solve the issue?12:30
azizLIGHTill just remove that repo12:31
MrokiiI guess you'd have to check which packages/apps can't be installed and check which repo they are from.12:31
azizLIGHTi dont get any warnings when i do sudo apt-get update and upgrade12:31
azizLIGHTso whats the issue... and where is it12:32

cfhowlettdoh!  right right right.  I was wrong.13:10
Giwrgarashi .im on the live session and trying to expand my hd using gparted13:10
Giwrgarashow to do it?! ive deleted windows the space is unallocated but i cant expand the ext4 main partition of mine13:11
IdleOneGiwrgaras: First you need to format the unallocated space to ext4 and then you expand13:11
Giwrgarasbasically by accident i created another main ext4 partition and the free space goes there instead of my main ext4 partition where i have my stuff13:12
MonkeyDustGiwrgaras  and backup first, before you start modifying partitions13:12
Giwrgarasi want to change the main ext4 partition to go to my old ext4 partition and expand this one13:12
Giwrgarasif you understand what im saying13:13
MonkeyDustGiwrgaras  you want to merge/combine two partitons?13:13
c_nickcfhowlett, lsb_release -a does not work anymore?13:13
azizLIGHTso any idea why upgradeing linux-headers package causes an issue for nvidia package? i get error: http://sprunge.us/HRfM13:14
Giwrgarasmy old ext4 partition is inside another that i created by accident13:14
Giwrgarasso i cant extend my normal partition with all the free space from the deleted windows13:14
cfhowlettc_nick, ?  eh?13:14
Giwrgarasinstead i can expand the newwly created empty ext4 partition in which i have no option to delete13:15
c_nickhehe i was doing - instead of _13:15
Giwrgarasit is my primary now i guess13:15
cfhowlettGiwrgaras, so delete the partition you created by accident13:15
c_nickUbuntu 14.10 Codename:utopic thats Unicorn!13:15
c_nicknow how to get flash working with chromium13:15
Giwrgarasno opiton to do that its set as primary13:15
MonkeyDustGiwrgaras  backup your data, then delete and re-create partitions, is the easiest, i guess13:16
BluesKajazizLIGHT, because yoiu're using xedgers ppa, not the best support for nvidia drivers unfortunately13:16
Giwrgarasyes but then i have to reinstall :/13:16
Giwrgarasi just want to swap positions primary/secondary ext413:16
jattc_nick: install chrome it has flash already included13:16
c_nicki hate this compromise #I-Love-Blue!13:17
MonkeyDustGiwrgaras  not sure if that is possible, think not13:17
Giwrgarasgod damn it13:17
MonkeyDustand no profanities13:17
azizLIGHTsudo add-apt-repository --remove13:18
Giwrgarassooo what do i do now?  reinstall?13:18

pagiosikonia i have a wpa_supplicant command that needs to connect to a network, ONLY after that connects to a network i want to fire up a command, an exception to fire that command is also when the network is unreachable14:18
ikoniawpa_supplicat shouldn't be needed after you've connected to a network14:19
ikoniaso I'm not really understanding what/why you 're trying to do it14:19
pagiosikonia: the wpa_supplicant is the one allowing me to connect to a network14:19

ikoniawould it not make sense to use network manager14:19
pagiosno its not appropriate14:20
ikoniain what way is it not ?14:20
ikoniait was designed to manage networks including wireless14:20
ikoniaand has triggers for things like network drop14:20
pagiosidea is i am creating VIF interfaces and assigning dynamic/static ips via /etc/network/interfaces, network-manager was conflicting with that14:21

ikoniapagios: pm me what ?14:22
ikoniause a pastebin if you have big output14:22
ikoniaNTFS is not a decent choice14:23
pagiosthe access point is changing channels as it is autotuned, so i need hostapd to read the channel that interface is using and use the same channel14:23
suorei've ubuntu, i have / ext4 and /home ext4 and newone hdd is for /media/Name/Data Storage #1 i want to menage here files line in ntfs at win  :P.14:23
pagiosthats the goal14:23
pagiosso i need to run hostapd after i get the channel using iwlist or something and then call the hotapd deamon14:24
ikoniapagios: I have no idea how to approach that, I'd have to look at that with real thought, but off the top of my head the network manager trigger or a dropped network could work14:24
ikoniasuore: whats the actual problem ?14:24
suoreat ext4 cannot create files and dir... i need to make 1st folder by superuser14:25
ikoniasuore: ext4 can mange files and directories just fine14:25
suoreand add chmod 777 and now ican create files14:25
MACscrpagios: have you had decent reliability with hostapd? I just recently made my ubuntu box an AP and its been pretty unreliable, though it almost more seems that the issue is related to DHCP from my router not always getting to the devices in order to complete the connection14:25

Jamira40Before you ask me why. vmWare Converter do not support Ubuntu 14.04 and only problem is because its trying to execute -v but on 14.04 works only -V15:34
ActionParsnipJamira40: the guys in #bash may be able to advise an alias-like function for it.15:34
Jamira40i tried to write alias function but i dont know how :-/15:34
TJ-Quinnlan: That output confirms there's only one analogue output - the "VGA-0" - the others are digital15:34
Jamira40how to specify -v15:34
Jamira40i know how to make alias like mynewfunction but without -v15:34
ActionParsnipJamira40: again. Ask in #bash15:35
Jamira40Thank you15:35
ActionParsnipQuinnlan: what is the output of: lspci | grep -i vga15:35
QuinnlanTJ-: so what do I need to do to get a second screen working? I had hoped a DVI to VGA adapter would be enough15:35
TJ-Quinnlan: You need to use a digital input on the monitor. If it doesn't have one, you'll need to replace the monitor15:36
TJ-Quinnlan: From the Nvidia specs. page: "One Dual Link DVI-I, One Dual Link DVI-D, One mini-HDMI "   http://www.geforce.co.uk/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-750/specifications15:36

Quinnlanso if I got a DVI cable instead of using a VGA cable and adapter it would probably work ?15:38
TJ-Quinnlan: If the monitor has a digital input, yes15:38
Quinnlanyeah theres a DVI in as well as a VGA in15:39
QuinnlanThanks TJ-, I'll pick up a cable off ebay15:39
TJ-Quinnlan: So you just need a DVI-D dual-link cable15:39
QuinnlanAh yes, I forgot about the different flavours of DVI cables15:40

=== Dbrickashaw is now known as sireebra
QuinnlanTJ-, one last question, does it matter if its single or dual link ?15:43
daltonfuryUse vpn?15:43
ActionParsnipopal: use an SSH tunnel to another system15:43
cfhowlettopal, boot an ubuntu usb not your installed system.  stay off flakey sites.  don't sign in to anything or pass through personal info ... but I'm paranod15:43
MonkeyDustopal  be careful with passwords, they can be easily hacked on a public wifi15:44
ActionParsnipopal: configure your firewall too15:44
opalMonkeyDust: Also if I use a HTTPS-connection?15:44
ActionParsnipopal: if it's https then you are ok15:44
TJ-Quinnlan: Yes... it determines bandwidth15:45
daltonfuryActionParsnip, what would the other system be?15:45
opalActionParsnip: Are the standard Ubuntu settings not ok? Thought there aren't open ports?15:45

ZerockNot in the repos. Meh.16:16
daltonfuryNah, its part of a build system16:16
ActionParsnipZerock: if you have a system which has the package installed you can tell apt-get to pull down  All debs and you can then move them to the offline system16:16
ActionParsnipZerock: is that what you mean?16:17
ovrflw0xActionParsnip, doing 'nautilus -q' **fixed** the problem but will i have to do this every time i boot into ubuntu?16:17
daltonfuryActionParsnip, but it is different architecture,.16:17
daltonfuryZerock, google yocto project16:18
ActionParsnipovrflw0x: yes, but you can add the command to the startup of the desktop16:18
ovrflw0xActionParsnip, why do i need to run this command everytime?16:18
ActionParsnipdaltonfury: could use a live CD of the other arch16:19
ovrflw0xis it a bug?16:19
ActionParsnipovrflw0x: possibly. Nautilus draws the wallpaper in a default Ubuntu install16:19
ActionParsnipovrflw0x: you have a very simple workaround though16:20
ovrflw0xActionParsnip, but running that command messes up display config16:20

mib_mib /usr/bin/env [ -L /home/deploy/projects/testproject1/releases/20150131165741/public/assets ] <---- what does this line do ?16:59
James_Eppjrtappers: I honestly don't know how to do that. I tried echo $DISPLAY > ~/output.txt and bash $DISPLAY > ~/output.txt but no results. How should I set that up?16:59
williamrockerjrtappers: can you help me with the GRUB? im afraid that I'm going to "destroy" my win8. I don't quite get the tutorial, I mean I get it but just to be sure.16:59
jrtappersSSH to VPS.blarg = Host key in DNS, ssh to VPS with blarg in search domain = No key in DNS       {blarg is to hide my server :D}16:59
James_Eppjrtappers: As well as bash echo $DISPLAY > ~/output.txt16:59
ActionParsnipjrtappers: weird.  I use search domains in my system and use SSH without issue16:59
jrtappersActionParsnip, DNS host keys aswell?17:00
cfhowlettwilliamrocker, your windows will not go away due to grub.  at worst, you'll need to run windows repair to reestablish the bootloader17:00
jrtappersJames_Epp, That should work, does the file exist after reboot17:00
James_Eppjrtappers: BUT to skip all that, firefox alone works. sleep 8; firefox doesn't work.17:00
ActionParsnipjrtappers: no. We don't use them. Don't see much point17:00
ActionParsnipjrtappers: we use SFP for email.17:01
jrtappersJames_Epp, Try running a script and having that in the script17:01
ActionParsnipSPF sorry17:01
James_EppJames_Epp: I'm paranoid and *need* that sleep. I tried doing 'gnome-terminal -x bash ~/script.sh' where script.sh had executable bit and was carriage-return delimited sleep 8\nfirefox and it didn't work17:01
TJ-jrtappers: Do you mean, resolving hostnames, as in a hostname given to the ssh program will use the system's resolver which might tack on a domain part to make a FQDN - but doesn't do the same for SSHFP (fingerprint) record in DNS ?17:01
James_Eppjrtappers: I'm paranoid and *need* that sleep. I tried doing 'gnome-terminal -x bash ~/script.sh' where script.sh had executable bit and was carriage-return delimited sleep 8\nfirefox and it didn't work17:01

TJ-jrtappers: The ssh docs say the policy is to implicitly trust keys, but no mention of secure path, so I'd guess that means first come, first served17:07
James_Eppjrtappers: Oh my god. Thank you. Excuse my language, but that was way to fucking backwards. If it works as a direct bash command, it should have worked from a script. FML. WAY too much BS.17:07

Ozymandias42Hi, I have a very specific question. When booting the LiveCD (from USB) on my HP Stream 7 (Tablet) I manage to get to the initramfs (casperfs doesn’t boot automatically. IRQ Bug) from where I further manage to mount the USB Stick und loop-mount the squashfs File, problem now is, that further automated mounts don’t seem to work which is why authentifications fail and I end up at a login prompt which doesn’t accept any19:20
Ozymandias42credentials. Question now is: What do I need to manually mount to make the LiveCD work as it should?19:20

ubottuvimal: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux)19:22
TJ-SomeDamnBody: OK... check "/etc/network/interfaces" - any 'iface' defined in there will be ignored by Network Manager since it believes you have taken over management of that interface. See "/var/log/syslog"  for NM messages that will confirm that. The solution is to remove/comment-out the iface definition statements in 'interfaces' file19:22

dmtarmeyhi iv put abuntu 14;10 on my old advent 7113 but for some reason its cant see my wifi and only works on cable20:30
ki7rwsome say to setup up swap x2 the ram20:30
BluesKajki7rw, well, unless you run a whole of data and streams etc , swap isn't needed with 16G RAM , IMO20:30
=== soee_ is now known as soee
BluesKaj2xRAM is for systems with less then 4 G RAM20:31
ki7rwBluesKaj, some say it depends on if you hibernate also20:31
BluesKajyes of cours, but 16G RAM is plenty for most hibernations20:32
BluesKajki7rw,^20:32
* ki7rw will reinstall with no swap20:32
DJ_UnibobWhat about if you have 4 GB of ram?20:33
ki7rwmaybe that's why my fresh install didn't force setting up swap partition?20:33
BluesKajI have 8G RAM and ran without a swap for a long time without any problems20:33
ki7rwoh well20:34
BluesKajki7rw, it asked though , right ?20:34
* ki7rw has nothing better to do20:34
ki7rwBluesKaj, nope - itdidn't ask20:34
DJ_UnibobI have 4, ubuntu set up a 4 GB swap.  In Windoze, I have a 4 GB pagefile on each of my 2 drives.20:34
BluesKajok20:34
jhutchinsBluesKaj: This channel has some problems with inexperienced helpers making assumptions and going off on tangents that have nothing to do with the problem at hand.  Still.20:35
Bashing-omDJ_Unibob: I run 4 Gigs ram .. and a very small swap, Swap also deepnds on what application you run . Heavy duty number crunching, yeah, lots of swap space needed .20:35
BluesKajjhutchins, point taken20:36
Apachezgreat fun, latest kernel update for 14.10 (3.16.0-30) made my parents laptop to not want to boot ubuntu anymore20:36
DJ_UnibobI don't run any intensive apps and also don't hibernate, so I think mine might be set up fine, though I'm debating on tweaking.20:36
Apachezjust those 4 red/white dots who changes colors and nothing happens20:36

ki7rwwith an ssd and 16 gb of ram i guess i shouldn't have too many performance issues20:37
BluesKajki7rw, exactly20:37
DJ_UnibobI think there is a way to edit grub while in it to disable Quiet / Splash (not sure which one), which would then give a detailed boot.20:38
dmtarmeyhi iv put abuntu 14;10 on my old advent 7113 but for some reason its cant see my wifi and only works on cable20:38
DJ_UnibobThat might give you an idea as to where it's hanging at.20:38
DJ_Unibobdmtarmey you may have to download additional drivers while connected via ethernet, since most wi-fi drivers are proprietary.20:39
Bashing-omdmtarmey: Have you fully updated/upgraded and then check and see what 'Additional Drivers' offers ?20:39

orboti was having a external hard drive problem20:41
orbotfound the link20:41
orbotjust wanted to know what this person entered into the terminal to get that output20:42
Bashing-omorbot: Show us what is -> sudo fdisk -lu , sudo parted -l <- in a pastebin . So we know what we are working with .20:43
orbothang on20:43
orboti found the answer to my problem here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/183970/mount-exited-with-exit-code-1320:43
orbotmy question is in the top part of the page the user entered a command in the terminal to get an output20:44
orboti just wanted to know what they entered20:44
Bashing-omorbot: :) but with 7 responses to the question, we are to guess which command is in relation to what, where and how ?20:45
orbotare you at the link?20:46
Bashing-omorbot: Yes I have it pulled up .20:46
=== AEM` is now known as aem`
orbotok top of the page it starts off with 'error mounting'20:47
orbotin the terminal there is an output20:47
dmtarmeyits says its using smartlink soatware, iv done apt-get update no change20:47
orboti just wanted to know what was entered to get the output20:47
orbothe entered in something to display his error20:48
dmtarmeyDK_Unibob its says its using smartlink soaftware, iv done apt-get update no change20:49
Bashing-omorbot: Not necessarily entered anything .. that is an advisory of an error condition. Maybe the result of a failed attempt to mount a partition (??) .20:49
orbotok so what would i enter into the terminal to display this error condition?20:50
Bashing-omorbot: If you do not have this particular fault, you will not see any reported error condition. So let us cut to the heart of this, are you having a problem accessing files on some external drive ? And IF so what file system format is on that external medium ?20:52
=== jen_ is now known as jamesmld
orbotthe problem is already solved. i just needed to know what to enter into the terminal so that that particular error can be displayed.20:53
Bashing-omorbot: That outpur is an error advisory. If your system is not suffering the same same same condition you can not get an erorr . If there is a fault, you can get some indication of where your particular fault lies - depending on the nature of the fault .20:55
rosco_yI'm running Windows 8.1.  How do I install Ubuntu so that Dual-boot works?20:56
Bashing-omoutpur/output*20:56
orbotcan this error advisory be displayed in the terminal?20:57
rosco_yI've installed Ubuntu after Windows in the past, and I've had to go into the boot menu and select the drive I want to boot after I install Ubuntu.20:57
orbotor to put it differently is there something I can enter to display problems with mounting an external hard drive?20:58
rosco_ywhich isn't the worst thing, but it'd be nice if grub did the job for me20:58
Bashing-omorbot: No, not unless your system has that exact same fault (what ever that might be - there mounting some partition) .20:59
rosco_ybut anyhoo, I guess we'll just trudge on.....20:59
rosco_yhave a good one, friends and neighbors....:)20:59
orbotso this output isn't from the terminal?21:00
Bashing-omorbot: Well, It could well be displayed - and probably is . It is the output from a failed operation .21:02
orbotok so is it possible to enter a command to display a failed operation?21:03
Bashing-omorbot: sure, IF there is a operation that is failing, repeat the command to start that operation. The result of the failed operation will be the same as the last time one tries to execute it .21:04

TJ-orbot: I'd guess that error is generated by something like: "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb2 /media/ntfs"21:07
stevenjchey so im compling an application where is the best place to put an application21:08
Bashing-omorbot: Maybe from the liveDVD try and mount partitions and see if there are reported errors ? Then go looking at why/where/how .21:08
TJ-stevenjc: For user-specific executables $HOME/bin ... for system-local, "/usr/local/bin/"21:09
orbotthe issue is that i connected the external drive and then a graphical error like the one in the link was displayed. but it's only for a short second. i wanted to see the error in the terminal.21:09
jattdmesg21:09
dmtarmeyis there anywere in ubuntu were people are able to help a new convert21:09
stevenjctj: whats the difference ?21:10
orbotBashing-om, there was no need for a cd i just used ntfsfix and the problem was resolved, again i just needed to know what terminal command can be entered to display the error.21:10
TJ-stevenjc: "/usr/local/bin/" is for packages built locally - not maintained by the system's package management system - but available to all users. $HOME/bin is per-user stuff21:10
orbotso what TJ wrote would more than likely be the command i need to display the error.21:11
Bashing-omorbot: A good possibility is as TJ- ^^ indicated . Depends on what hard drive, what partition, what file system . (sudo fdisk -lu )21:12
TJ-Bashing-om: orbot is asking specifically about the askubuntu question, where everything but the mount-point are given.21:13
Bashing-omdmtarmey: Here is a great place to get help, there are other places also .21:13
orbotlook at it this way,... you try to mount a drive and the gui gives an error but it's displayed for a short second. one would have to open up a terminal and enter in a command to redisplay the error21:14

dmtarmeywere else can i try as no one else is speaking to me ??21:16

dmtarmeyTJ- No change21:27
TJ-dmtarmey: The status of WIFI-HARDWARE still shows "disabled" ?21:27
dmtarmeyTJ _ yes21:27
TJ-dmtarmey: OK, do "rfkill list" and check the Soft/Hard states of Wireless LAN. This tells you if the WiFi radio hardware is disabled or not21:29

dmtarmeySoft blocked: no21:29

plasmasnakedoes anybody know which package in ubuntu is responsible for stretching the desktop background across 2 monitors? there's a bug that i'm trying to isolate... i have a background that stretches correctly on the lock screen, and also stretches correctly the first time when you set the background, but then after rebooting the proportions get messed on the desktop (but still fine on the lock screen)21:34
plasmasnakei have one monitor in portrait and the other in landscape, so that likely has something to do with it21:35
TJ-plasmasnake: Is that with Unity?21:37
plasmasnakeTJ-: yeah21:38
plasmasnakei could take a pic if you're interested21:38
TJ-plasmasnake: I'd suspect it'd be in one of the Unity components, or else Compiz (the compositor).21:39
TJ-plasmasnake: I run 6 screens but Unity can't cope so I use KDE21:39
plasmasnakehmm21:39
plasmasnakei just pulled up ccsm, and there is a Wallpaper plugin but it's not enabled21:40
plasmasnakeso i wonder if that means it's another unity component?21:41
plasmasnakeactually the plugin is just to define individual desktop wallpapers for each viewport21:42

FuchsdivBy0: that's what I know from my work machine, yes. Both the host and guest have to support it22:26
oli_How to chage the color?22:26
daftykinsTheMissingBit: that is 100% rubbish22:26
TheMissingBitdaftykins, tell ms22:27
daftykinsTheMissingBit: no i'm telling you, you are wrong22:27
divBy0Fuchs: and the guest should as long as its windows 8 with latest vmware tools?22:27
TheMissingBitdaftykins, I am not.22:27
FuchsdivBy0: yes22:27
TheMissingBitdaftykins, and that is a fact.22:27
daftykinsTheMissingBit: download universal USB installer from pendrivelinux.com - that'll load up windows 7 and 8 onto flash drives bootable as both legacy and EFI, if you have a proper ISO to make it from22:27
divBy0Fuchs: k thanks again and cheers22:27
daftykinsTheMissingBit: no you are wrong, i work in IT and boot windows 7 and 8 as legacy AND EFI all the time.22:27
TheMissingBitdaftykins, you are wrong.22:28
TheMissingBitdaftykins, go to a secureboot enabled windows 8 install and use bootsect.exe to make a non eufi bootable usb22:28
daftykinsTheMissingBit: so i suppose you don't want help if you think you're right? :) i do this regularly, so the facts speak for themselves :)22:28
TheMissingBitdaftykins, clearly you've never used bootsect.exe22:28
TheMissingBitI do this all the time aswell22:28
daftykinsTheMissingBit: i have, but you don't need to run that manually to create bootable media :)22:29
daftykinsTheMissingBit: also you're in a Linux channel arguing Windows issues, not very wise.22:29
daftykinsthere is always more than one way to skin the cat you know22:29
TheMissingBitdaftykins, you're arguing against facts ;)22:29
tinkacan i configure wired network static in /etc/network/interfaces and have networkmanager only handle wireless. ethernet is intended to be fallback if my mum has trouble and can't even log into ui.22:29
daftykinsno, i'm telling you it can be done and has been done22:30

TarovenSo I'm trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 (x64), single booting, and the EFI loader doesn't seem to be recognized by the system. Secure boot is off and same results in EFI or CSM mode. Any ideas where to go from here?22:32

TarovenHoping for a sidetrack: So I'm trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 (x64), single booting, and the EFI loader doesn't seem to be recognized by the system. Secure boot is off and same results in EFI or CSM mode. Any ideas where to go from here?22:37

TheMissingBitdivBy0, no22:39

oli_Does anyone know how to get Teamspeak on Ubuntu?22:39
hdonhi all :) i want to install the latest LTS, 14.04.1 i believe. i'm using debootstrap. which "suite" do i choose?22:39
Tarovendaftykins: Toshiba C55D, pretty standard laptop.22:39
ianorlinI haven't used virtualbox in a while but ususally22:39
daftykinsTaroven: check the BIOS is the latest, EFI implementations are so buggy it's worth giving that a go22:40
TarovenBlech.22:40
TarovenThink I'm gonna give it another whack with CSM through and through, I really don't want to reformat again for a bios update :(22:40
TheMissingBitoli_, wine is an option22:41
oli_TheMissingBit, but i heared you can install it on Ubuntu without wine.22:41
daftykinsTaroven: what do you mean format? just boot a DOS bootable with a BIOS utility perhaps. Toshiba may even give ISOs, who knows22:41
TheMissingBitol22:42
TheMissingBitoli_, http://www.teamspeak.com/?page=downloads22:42
TheMissingBitDownload the one relvant to your archetecture22:42
Tarovenoli_: There's a Linux version of Teamspeak. IMO, switch to Mumble for your voice needs. =P22:42
oli_ok thanks22:43
TheMissingBitoli_, After downloaded, open a terminal and do this cd Downloads && dpkg -i *.deb22:43
TarovenArgh. CSM mode fails to start the pendrive. -.-22:43
TheMissingBitoli_, first have you checked the ubuntu software ccenter22:43
daftykinsnow he asks :P22:43
daftykinsTaroven: how did you make up this drive?22:43
Tarovendaftykins: Universal USB installer via this comp. Gonna try it once more using a different tool.22:45
daftykinswhat OS?22:45
daftykins'dd' would be great, after hashing the download to confirm it was good22:45
xhoch3any maintainers of Qt libs around?22:45
TarovenWindows 8.1, sadly.22:46
TarovenI'd love to just dd it, but no dual boot on this one.22:46
daftykinsTaroven: ah, UUI is fine - definitely worth hashing that download though22:46
TarovenAlready did. :(22:46
daftykinsupdate that BIOS then \o/22:47
TarovenAnd unetbootin fails to find the pendrive, of course. -.-22:47
daftykinsi would not use that22:47
TarovenYeah, it's a last resort tool for me. I prefer UUI or dd whenever possible.22:47

Corki have a remote machine (only access over ssh) and it has bad sectors on the root partition22:57

Corktouch /forcefsck doesn't seam to mark the bad sectors, any suggestions how to solve this22:57
daftykinsit's dead, you can't work around it - you need to replace it22:58
daftykinsbad sectors can spread and get worse22:58
Corkuh, i know22:58
Corkbut i need to mark the sectors as bad22:58
daftykinswhy22:58
rechargecan anyone please help me with this problem..   http://askubuntu.com/questions/579006/problem-with-hplip-3-14-10-install22:58

crazyhead42Hey, how can I see the number of pages in a subsection of the manual? I've used "man man", had my dad try to help me, and all the other standard strategies, but have not found the answer, and I need it for my homework.22:59
daftykinsplayed with badblocks? i think whatever you're trying to do here is going to be a big waste of time22:59
daftykinscrazyhead42: try #linux since this isn't a homework channel22:59
Corkdaftykins: i didn't ask for help on replacing the drive...22:59
daftykinsyeah, that was your mistake really23:00
Corki asked for how to do a badblocks mark on the root system23:00
Corkuh...23:00
rechargeplease help me get my printer to work..!23:00
crazyhead42Okay!23:00
Corkanyone that's willing to try to help with this?, instead of being a smart ass?23:00
daftykinsit's a mistake to do anything than replace it that's all, no need to act all offended23:00
h00kCork: the drive itself will re-map around bad blocks as it comes across them23:01
Corkh00k: this drive doesn't have smart23:01
Corkso i don't think so23:01
h00kCork: I don't think there's a way to manually do that23:02
plasmasnakeTJ-: turns out it's nautilus that handles the desktop wallpaper23:02
Corkh00k: you can with badblocks, but i can't find a way to run it, as this is the root system23:02
Corki've ran it on other systems from init 1, but as i only have ssh... that isn't really an option23:03
h00kCork: I was going to suggest booting a live disk and doing it from there, sounds like you can't23:03
TJ-plasmasnake: Ahhh, now you mention it, I seem to recall hacking the code for it many years ago23:04
Corknope23:04
h00kCork: sounds like daftykins had it right, sounds like a good time for a replacement, or livedisk/fsck/badblocks23:05
daftykinsi tell no lies :(23:05
Corkreplacement isn't an option in this case23:05
daftykinsa disk without SMART is a very dubious claim too23:05
daftykinsdoes "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX" really not report anything on it?23:06
Corkdaftykins: the drive is an ide drive from ~ 9723:06
Corkso no, no smart23:06
h00kEspecially that old, replacement sounds like the thing you'll want to do. Something like badblocks might kick it to the curb if it's dying already23:07
daftykinsbeing PATA doesn't rule out SMART23:07
daftykinsh00k: +123:07
h00kCork: I've seen a simple format or diagnostics finally kick dying drives to the curb23:08
h00kbootup is especially hard23:08
pozanyone ever have a bad magic number in the superblock?23:09
bekkspoz: What if? :)23:10
pozever fix it on a ntfs?23:11
bekkspoz: What if?23:11
bekkspoz: Whats the actual issue behind that?23:11
pozhard drive issues23:12
bekkspoz: Can you form a specific question out of that? :)23:12
pozit would not boot. so I went and got a 4tb hard drive to clone to with clonezilla. a line said somthing about bad magic number in the superblock23:12
bekkspoz: What did it tell you exactly?23:13
h00kpoz: let windows chkdsk it, maybe use something like HBCD or something23:13
pozso I was googleing around and tryed a few things, but nothing that has solved the problem23:13
pozwindows wont boot up23:13
pozubuntu, becuase it is awesome. has no problem and can partially see the disk23:14
bekkspoz: What did it tell you about the magic number, exactly?23:14
bekkspoz: Can you please be more specific, what do you mean by "can partially see the disk"?23:14
pozthats all it told me. that it had a bad magic number in the super block. then it went onto cloning. I cancelled it because it was going to take days when it might be a more simple fix23:14
pozit goes very slow, and many files do not appear - that is what I mean by partially23:15
bekkspoz: So the message was: "Something about a magic number."? I do not believe in that.23:15
pozwell it flashed by very quicky.. I would provide all the info if I had it :(23:16
pozI ran this: sudo ntfsfix /dev/sdb223:17
pozand it seems to have made it more stable. In gpart, it does not show a red exclamation mark beside sdb2, but it still has one aside of sdb1, (a small 128 mb partition) but sudo ntfsfix /dev/sdb1 does not work with it23:18
TJ-poz: probably the file-system in sdb1 isn't NTFS23:19
TJ-poz: Likely it's an EFI FAT16/32 partition23:19
pozthat is true, it actually does not say what file system it is23:19
pozit says unknow for the file system. maybe it is not even formated...23:20
pozunknown*23:21
TJ-poz: "sudo blkid /dev/sdb1" may help23:21
pozTJ, that does nothing23:22
TJ-poz: likely no file-system in that partition then23:23
TJ-poz: or, a corrupted FS. testdisk might recover it if there is one, or photorec might see wreckage inside it23:23
euphoria64Hey guys, I have a question regarding dual boot23:26
pozhumm, I will try teskdisk23:26
daftykinseuphoria64: ok, waiting for it23:27
euphoria64Actually, it's not really about dual boot but rather driver problems23:27
daftykinsthe plot thickens..23:27
euphoria64So I can install ubuntu pretty easily via the usb live media23:27
euphoria64But I can't find a way to install the network driver during the installation23:27
euphoria64I did find a file online that holds the driver, but I'm not sure whether to put it in a folder in the live media or something else23:28
euphoria64Yeah, I remember it was the iwlwifi module23:29
daftykinsdoes this system - laptop? have wired networking?23:30
euphoria64Mmm... yeah, I can connect the laptop to a router...23:32
euphoria64Oh, you're asking me to download the module via wired connection.23:32
daftykinsso install, do a fill update over wired, then run "sudo modprobe iwlwifi" then reboot23:32
kruxtrying to set up a cronjob.. @reboot /path/to/comand -m simple.conf << does not seem to be working anybody knows if i am doing something wrong ? or missing something ?23:32
daftykinsmight get working wireless after that, depends what the device is23:32
daftykinseuphoria64: you need to share that with us really ;)23:32
