[00:04] i figured it out using netstat. thanks! [00:04] jhutchins: lsof, fuser. makes five... [00:05] I'm having a problem fixing google voice plugin with mozilla firefox. They give a link inside my telephone interface to dl it but when I click the link there seems to be no dl in sight. Has anyone dealt with this before? It works find in Opera now (the browser I was using) just not with ff now. [00:08] Loshki: Those never work for me. [00:09] caonicaldroid: Does "lsmod | grep b43" print anything? [00:09] jhutchins: "sudo lsof -i4" often produces something useful for me. === EriC^^ is now known as eeee [00:10] if i do what the last guy said will i be good? [00:10] caonicaldroid: For future reference, your wireless card is a bradcom card with PCI-ID "14e4:4318". [00:10] ok [00:11] caonicaldroid: I don't know which person/advice you're reffering to. [00:11] how do I edit my touchscreen settings on 14.10? [00:11] Loshki: Interesting, that shows my irssi sessions, but not ssh, ntp, etc. [00:12] hi [00:12] what does it mean to encrypt my volume? [00:12] and why can it be decrypted so fast? [00:12] Loshki: Which is, of course, because I ran it as a user, not as root. [00:13] caonicaldroid, Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Kernel driver in use: wl >> install the linux-firmware-nonfree package http://askubuntu.com/a/171877 [00:13] that advice [00:13] Jordan_U, he has caonicaldroid, Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Kernel driver in use: wl >> install the linux-firmware-nonfree package http://askubuntu.com/a/171877 [00:13] !encryption [00:13] For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory [00:14] caonicaldroid: Yes, that should do it. Though obviously apt-get install requires internet access. [00:15] when I install ubuntu in an encrypted partition, are all files completely encrypted, or only the MBR? [00:15] or only the file name/adresses? [00:15] jhutchins: Hmm. It's harder to get something useful out of fuser without giving it some kind of name... [00:15] Lugal: All files. [00:15] yeah i know [00:15] Lugal: The MBR is one thing that, if this drive is a boot device, cannot by definition be encrypted. [00:15] but how then can my system start in just 5 seconds after typing in the passphrase? [00:16] Lugal: Why shouldn't it finish booting 5 seconds after typing in the passphrase? [00:16] normally encrypting 1 MB takes few second [00:16] and my system is 600MB at least [00:17] Lugal: Files are decrypted on the fly. Files are only decrypted as they are needed. [00:17] hey guys... ive got a teamspeak server that for whatever reason decided to stop working today. it worked yesterday, no changes as far as i can tell. the server is running with default ports, but the client cant connect to it [00:17] When I go to gnome tweak tool, the shell them option is missing. It seems like that part of the Adwaita Gnome 3 theme is missing. Anyone know how I could fix that? [00:18] Lugal: And usually reading from disk is still the bottleneck, files can be decrypted faster than their blocks can be read from disk. [00:18] so everything is encrypted and gets decrypted when I open it? so it makes the system much slower in total, right? [00:19] Lugal it won't be faster. [00:20] and the decrypted file appears only in RAM, or also on the HDD while being logged in? [00:20] hey so I am having trouble understanding the instructions for installing a program called lipi. They keep telling me to set my LIPI_ROOT to opt/lipi but it doesnt exist. [00:20] http://lipitk.sourceforge.net/docs/LipiToolkit/lipi-toolkit_4_0_getting_started.pdf [00:20] thats the instructions [00:20] and one last question: can I decrypt my drives from all linux distros? [00:21] Lugal: For things that are IO bound you will probably notice no difference, though more CPU will be used so things that are CPU bound might be slowed down. Decrypted data is only in RAM. [00:21] Lugal: Yes, pretty much all distributions support LUKS, though they may not have LUKS tools installed by default (or available from their Live media). [00:22] ok, thanks guys, cya :) [00:23] can anyone help me with my wacom. It seems to randomly work. === eeee is now known as EriC^^ [00:29] hello [00:29] luciousj7: What happens when you try to use it when it's "not working"?

Can I limit it with a config or something? [00:39] OerHeks: I don't understand. The wl driver, which is proprietary, contains firmware within it. The firmware within the wl driver cannot be used by the kernel without extraction, and pre-extracted firmware cannot be legally distributed by anyone but broadcom.

[00:42] redemptionsong: Like this, the system will not decide for you when you might want to use an 'old" kernel. If there is operating headroom, there is a command that will remove the old kernels.

I see 'linux-signed-generic', are these things now secure-boot signed or something? [01:21] The_NetZ: yes [01:21] nice. very interesting indeed. [01:22] The_NetZ: Back when all this secure boot stuff was getting started, they used to have a piece of software able to create the secure boot signing keys and manipulate stuff in the efi/bios to do with that stuff [01:22] don't remember the name tho [01:22] redemptionsong: dunno. I did some fiddling with secureboot in OVMF in qemu, but tbh I just built a rig with UEFI and don' [01:23] The_NetZ: are you mounting the hosts /proc to the chroot? [01:23] t use secureboot XD [01:23] daftykins: not sure... using the schroot helper to chroot. [01:23] the what? is that provided by arch? [01:23] its in the repos, yes, but it's not arch-specific. and from the results of findmnt, I think it did. [01:24] think? so you can't be 100%? [01:24] it should be pretty easily verifiable [01:24] The_NetZ: sweet :) [01:25] well, it shows proc to be mounted on /var/lib/schroot/mount/ubuntu-precise-amd64-3f4a26d1-6b80-44c7-8c7b-24e9221abe51/proc/, while the chroot itself lives at /opt/chroot/ubuntu-precise-amd64/ [01:25] so... unless its doing something really funky, idk. === blubberbop is now known as phoenixz [01:25] seems like a non-ubuntu issue to me [01:25] The_NetZ: So either use chroot or ask the archlinux guys about their "schroot"? :) [01:25] daftykins: dunno. [01:26] bekks: once again, its not archlinux specific. [01:26] The_NetZ: Thats what you are stating, but not what you can prove so far.

[01:27] mtcjayne: it's a wiki, so you can sign up [01:28] hey, I’m trying to install something that is looking for /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256, but mine only goes up to 128x128…how do I get the 256x256 icons? [01:29] The_NetZ: Maybe see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Change_Root . [01:29] bobbobbins: may simply not exist. you can use imagemagick to scale them quickly. [01:30] Bashing-om: seems schroot is actually a software developed by debian folks. [01:30] I’m betting gnome creates it or something, and I’m not running gnome [01:31] The wiki login is just timing out. [01:31] bobbobbins: no... each *.deb contains all the files already. it just unpackes them. [01:31] The_NetZ: Which doesnt matter at that point since we dont know what the archlinux devs did there. [01:31] if the package does not contain that file, then it will not exist, simple as that. [01:31] [01:32] The_NetZ: which is a different issue, since we still dont knwo what the archlinux did there. [01:32] The_NetZ: Try using chroot, verify the issue. [01:32] bekks: talking to bobbobbins regarding the packaging issue. [01:32] I like to give and take :) [01:32] i’ll just create it and see what happens [01:33] The_NetZ: and a .deb does a lot more than just "unpacking". :P [01:33] bekks: I know lol [01:33] It contains pre/post-install scripts, etc. [01:33] The_NetZ: so please dont provide false information ;) [01:33] just saying, for simple things like the image/icon bobbobbins is looking for, if it's not there then it doesn't exist :) [01:33] The_NetZ: Which is a false assumption. [01:34] not really. I suppose one could generate the icon on the fly with the install hooks, but that's not common. [01:34] The fact some files a 3rd party software expects dont exist desnt mean they arent provided by a specific package. [01:35] And using imagemagick on thumbnails or icon files will result in heavy failing, due to the loss of information on upscaling. [01:35] so the question in fact should be: "what are you doing there and whats the exact error you get?" [01:35] bekks: yep. just saying, it is an option, if you can't find it elsewhere. [01:35] The_NetZ: dell 924 reported as not working with Ubuntu :( [01:35] tripelb: ... why are you telling me that? [01:36] yeah, i don’t know how scaling got brought up, I just wanted to know where that directory comes from [01:36] and even if something isn't officially supported it likely can be made to work well enough :) [01:36] bobbobbins: you can look that up on packages.ubuntu.com [01:37] The_NetZ: maybe we should stick to the more sane ways of solving an issue. [01:37] ah, i didn’t know about that [01:37] I don't do sane XD [01:37] The_NetZ: thats what we noticed so far. [01:37] bekks: ok, I just chrooted into the thing normally, and it can't find ls XD [01:38] The_NetZ: then how did you chroot and what did you do as prereqs? [01:38] nvm, ls lives in /bin/ for *buntu [01:39] The_NetZ: of course. [01:39] yeah, just creating the directory did the trick [01:39] thats where it belongs. [01:39] All I have is google voice for a phone right now. The google phone has been working w/ opera but not w/ firefox (and I want to switch to firefox). I can't make or receive any calls even though google-talkplugin is installed (sudo apt-get install google-talkplugin ...google-talkplugin is already the newest version.) [01:39] What do I do? I wanted to call a friend over for dinner tonight [01:40] bekks: well its in /usr/bin/ for arch, and since I'm on that, apparently my PATH entered the chroot untouched [01:40] redemptionsong: are you talking about #ubuntu-touch ? because, yeah - that channel :) [01:41] yep... funny stuff, chroots are XD [01:41] I need to clone a USB harddrive in a dock to an internal hardware, what is the best way to do this? The internal drive is /dev/sdb and the docked drive is: /dev/sdc. I know the SDC drive has errors as it's damaged, so what is the best way to clone it to the next drive [01:41] docmur: clonezilla [01:41] docmur: ddrescue [01:42] I tried clonezilla, it quit and wouldn't let me actually clone the drive [01:42] rsync :) [01:43] anyone know why i'm getting "No ident response" but oidentd is running and the port is open? [01:44] daftykins: I never heard of #ubuntu-touch. I use gmail and google voice . Google voice is my only phone and connection to the world right now (people who know me have had that number for years). fwiw, this is what I tried earlier (after purging the already intalled google-talkplugin that was already installed and doing the same thing as now). I can't find it but it involved wget and... [01:44] ...installing the signing key (which I already had and now have apt-get errors for duplicates) updating and installing. Changed nothing [01:44] it was from a but report [01:45] redemptionsong: oh ok so you're saying this is a google product that's installed on an ubuntu desktop...?

[01:45] hmm, odd i didn't recognise the name then [01:46] redemptionsong: good luck to me? i think that'd be your concern :) [01:46] The_NetZ: considering you're on Arch, are you not as useful as a chocolate teapot right now? :) [01:46] daftykins: nope, I'm pretty decent on solving other issues too :) [01:47] Hey guys [01:47] I got this below error while trying to install my graphics driver [01:47] 015-02-04 06:53:47,655 DEBUG: loading custom handler /usr/share/jockey/handlers/pvr-omap4.py [01:47] 2015-02-04 06:53:47,698 WARNING: modinfo for module omapdrm_pvr failed: ERROR: modinfo: could not find module omapdrm_pvr [01:47] 2 [01:47] Can somebody help ?

[01:52] stupid naming conventions i swear =| [01:52] indeed [01:52] its suspending right? [01:52] petrol: you're probably out of luck then. [01:52] and do standard install stuff [01:52] that backgrounds it, and you can 'fg program' and come back to it [01:52] The_NetZ: acer E1-572-5870 [01:52] petrol: what are you upgrading? [01:52] 12.04 to 14 [01:52] petrol: if you mean a major release upgrade I wouldn't [01:52] kk [01:53] petrol: and you came in asking about installing a driver in the middle? oy vey. [01:53] yeah. I once attempted an update on a dying laptop.... before it finished the update it powered off. next time I powered it on and tried to apt-get upgrade it, I could do little other than watch my system eat itself o.0 [01:54] daftykins, I was having these two problems early on... [01:54] so I thought of asking em together [01:54] petrol: ok well come back once you're on 14.04.1 fully updated [01:54] Yeah, will do [01:54] bekks: also, with a straight chroot, I still get these dep isues. [01:55] The_NetZ: I had that happen to me I think. Just b4 I bought this new lappy I bought a 7 yr old hp. installed xubuntu cause nothing else would install. Then that thing you said happened, it never booted again, it was bricked! [01:55] i don't think chrooting ubuntu above arch is really an expected use-case [01:55] well guys, my idea of fun is not to danger-upgrade without a power source ;) [01:56] redemptionsong: oh the hardware was fine, and I had just installed the system, so I didn't really lose out on anything, I just reinstalled fresh. [01:57] daftykins: lol [01:57] The_NetZ: Musta been a deeper issue for me then. Mine got bricked. It'd loop the boot (power up/power down - over and over and over again) [01:59] bekks: problem solved [01:59] the issue was the upstart bit, it seems. [02:00] hmm... so, my ident port is open, but no irc server seems to agree, anyone know why that would be? [02:00] Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can familiarise my self more with the terminal? [02:00] I suppose I'll try to deal w/ it another time [02:00] zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz: use it. use it alot. [02:00] I use it for what I can but never seem to need it lol... [02:00] I think I can still wing it w/ opera for now :) [02:00] installing, moving, copying etc [02:01] a whole fuckloads. apt-get, file management, whatever. just use it for any task. [02:01] yes? no? maybe? [02:01] yeah man use it for all that, just apart from that basic stuff I find I never need to use it. [02:02] Anyone familiar with Citrix? Keeps giving me an SSL61 error lol..... I've sudo copied the certs to the folers I'm aware of yet it persists. [02:03] Hello [02:03] anyone have any ideas? [02:03] anyone? [02:04] hi can anyone here help me get a 3 monitor setup working in ubuntu? [02:04] Yeah, does anyone know why Citrix despite copying the ssl certs into the folders I'm aware of still gives me an SSL error when connecting. [02:04] Should work, whats the issue? [02:04] I'm running 3 screens atm on ubuntu 14.04 [02:05] The_NetZ: keep the language polite [02:05] What is topic? [02:06] ubuntu support only. [02:06] FYI my citrix issue is in Ubuntu. [02:06] the receiver refuses to work, is there some kind of SSL cache I'm not aware of? [02:06] zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz: i was responding to Acpovaurox_Yang [02:07] All good :P [02:07] zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz: you should seek support with citrix [02:07] Is there a way to integrate my Google/Android contacts with my desktop? For example, it would be nice to be able to have contacts show up in a HUD search. [02:07] @ben64 there's actually documentation for it [02:08] I've followed it all, doesn't work. [02:08] so... seek support from citrix [02:08] On OSX its fixed by installing your cert to the keychain. [02:08] I probably will contact Citrix I just wanted to check if any Ubuntu guys knew of anything with SSL [02:09] I have nvidia drivers, is is possible I just can't use 3 monitors? my laptop is a asus g74s === Manelistu is now known as ady [02:09] lol do you have three video ports. [02:09] zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, I have my laptop monitor, hdmi, vga. [02:09] zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, it detects three but wont use all three at the same time [02:10] Hm [02:10] navetz: Many Nvidia GFX cards have a maximum concurrent number of two ports in use, even though they sport three physical ports. [02:10] navetz: i'd be willing to bet that's nvidia optimus, not nvidia graphics only [02:10] in which case the GPU providing the displays is actually the intel [02:10] here is my error messages: http://pastebin.com/DCpwtqvT [02:11] Tzunamii, okay I'll try to find out if I can use more then two. I am only trying to use two ports and my laptop monitor as the third screen [02:11] Anyone here use Arpon? [02:11] navetz: I bet that's the issue. I've seen this before many time, unfortunately. [02:11] Its surprisingly good. [02:12] daftykins, http://i.imgur.com/lePSWxO.png is this nvidia optimus? [02:12] I tested it the other day, without it the Arp poison worked then I enabled the Arpon Daemon and it stopped it almost instantly. [02:13] navetz: most likely yeah, although an output of "lspci" in a pastebin would be more useful [02:15] daftykins, http://pastebin.com/5muaup0G [02:16] daftykins: my bad :) [02:16] hmm... so, my ident port is open, but no irc server seems to agree, anyone know why that would be? i'm running oidentd and latest irssi [02:16] canyousee.org says the port is open too [02:16] canyouseeme.org, sorry [02:18] Tzunamii, do you know how i can find out if the laptop supports more using both output ports at the same time? [02:19] navetz: Not by the back of my hand. You have to use the fairy, ie Google, sorry. [02:19] can i suspend an update, put my lap to sleep..come back after 11 hours and resume it? [02:19] Tzunamii, yea trying, not a lot of info on my laptop with ubuntu [02:19] would it be a savvy dev decision to only support currently supported versions of ubuntu? [02:20] petrol: wouldn't risk it [02:20] navetz: Don't limit the search for info to Linux only. Windows users will have the same issue [02:20] daftykins, right now downlaod is happening [02:21] petrol: Then you can completely cancel it, or suspend your machine, with no worries. [02:22] so if ctrl+c it, shutdown my machine and start the download again, will the download be continued? [02:22] .......................................................................... [02:23] petrol: Yes. At most the package that's currently downloading will have to be downloaded from the beginning, but all completed packages will be kept. [02:23] Jordan_U, thats great. I dont mind downloading the current one again. I just dont want my system to be up 11 hours without any use [02:23] The_NetZ, demographic info might be useful if available, but I have a hard time imagining using something onlder than the current LTS versions. [02:24] precise and trusty are still lts'd, right? lucid too, but its soon to die on server (and desktop is already dead) === ulf_ is now known as Ulfalizer [02:26] Not gonna lie, I actually quite like Unity now.. [02:27] My Snes9x emulator reverted back to the way it was when I installed. I lost my saved game status. The only think I recall doing is software update today. Anyone else have anything like this happen - ? [02:28] wait michael_j [02:29] can you see me now? [02:29] :) [02:29] I thought the only emulator for SNES, was ZSNES [02:29] !topic | The_NetZ (it should say something here) [02:29] The_NetZ (it should say something here): Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information.

[02:30] michael_j: also, check out retroarch ;) [02:33] The_NetZ: thanks for any help - what is retroach ? === netsjanek is now known as fs-netsjanek [02:34] Well, if anyone can help, I have posted in the forums too at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2263864&p=13221528#post13221528 === fs-netsjanek is now known as netsjanek [02:37] michael_j: its a sort of emulation library/front end [02:37] basically you use one interface to load different roms/etc with different 'cores' which provid the emulation of different systems [02:38] eg, you can use it for snes/nes/genesis/psx/gb/gba/etc [02:38] NetZ, I assumed it was in .Snes9x (hidden folder). Please follow my post in the forum if you get time. No big deal, but I was almost finished with Donkey Kong Kountry 2 !!! ARGH !!!!!!! [02:38] lol [02:38] michael_j: use mlocate to find it :) [02:39] NetZ: I'm not even sure what file to search for [02:40] lesseee... it will likely end in *.srm [02:40] and it should have a name otherwise identical to the rom you're running. [02:41] so playing Foo.sfc should yield Foo.srm [02:42] NegativeFlare: no, there are a large amount of good emulators :) [02:42] Hi, I have created aLVM partition of 20GB and created a VG on that. [02:42] I prefer retroarch with snes9x for snes nowadays. [02:42] But the size of VG is just 240 MB. [02:42] Why is it not same as the PV? [02:42] The_NetZ: I personally like ZSNES for SNES emulation, because I knew the guys who wrote it xD [02:42] I tried to use a different resolutioned, VGA monitor on my laptop. It looks like it is not separating the screen and they are flickering/bleeding into each other. when I remove the dsub cable, everything goes back to normal. Can any one help me fix my problem? [02:43] madhuri: What commands did you use to create the VG and LV? [02:43] NegativeFlare: oh that's cool. I used to use zsnes :) [02:43] Jordan_U: vgcreate to create the VG [02:44] Jordan_U: I haven't created any LV on it yet. [02:44] madhuri: Exact commands please. [02:45] vgcreate cinder-volumes /dev/sda5 [02:47] Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/LCpvMB7d for reference [02:48] well [02:51] madhuri: Please pastebin the output of "pvdisplay".

[02:53] can someone explain to me why my > keep getting permission denied during echos? [02:53] NegativeFlare: Znes is famous for locking up 35 minutes into a game. [02:53] skweek: because you're trying to redirect to a file/dir you don't have write access for. Give an example [02:53] michael_j: geez, where do you guys keep hearing that garbage? [02:54] NegativeFlare: I've experienced it on 2 systems and it's well discussed in the Ubuntu emulation forums. [02:54] michael_j: well its never happened to me [02:55] and I've done complete playthroughs before [02:55] Zsnes has even been removed from the Software Center - no download button to click. [02:56] michael_j: try apt-get'ing it [02:56] it's still there [02:56] Does anyone know how the source command work in C Shell?

[02:57] negativeflare - what's old, 12.04 lts? [02:58] michael_j: yes [02:58] that's old [02:58] Psil0Cybin: Why are you using C shell? [02:58] We're up to 14.10 now [02:58] NegativeFlare: LTS is up to 14.04.1, more to the point [02:58] forget non-LTS releases :> [02:58] !info zsnes precise [02:58] xD that's true daftykins [02:58] 12.04 lts is supported through 2017.

This doesn't seem to happen on ubuntu 14.04. Is this a bug? [03:04] I ran a script, it installed dependencies, one of them was pure-ftpd, this morning I woke up and was like duh I should check that out and see if it was configured properly, no actually I was running nmap and realized I had a bunch of open ports so I started to properly configure the servers the script set up, well I had run the script with sudo and actually I don't remember exactly what I did at this very moment, well the docs, [03:04] manual, and other configuration tutorials around the web all use echo > [03:05] skweek: I've posted answers for you already.

Too much coffee [03:16] how do permissions work? I keep on getting confused when looking them up online [03:17] ls -l on the folder might explain why I can't write out with a > and have been using the | because it ignores permissions? === jay__ is now known as jmaradin [03:17] skweek: you [rpbably want something like "echo MaxClientsPerIP 1 | tee /etc/pure-ftpd/conf" but you are much better off doing 'sudo nano /etc/pure-ftd/conf' and just editing the file if you have that many changes [03:18] they aren't in a single conf.cfg they are each individual files with options in a single conf directory [03:18] skweek: Another thing to note is that you probably shouldn't be trying to follow any guide that recommends using echo this way. Try to stick to official documentation wherever possible. [03:18] skweek: that's mad. Never used pure-ftpd myself, but don't think I've ever seen a conf that messy before [03:19] its in the offical documentation to use it this way, same thing with a guide hosted on ubuntu.com [03:19] skweek: Please post links to both pieces of documenatation.

[04:27] upstart help anyone ? :) http://pastie.org/9885033 [04:27] that cmd works if you do this in cli [04:28] /tmp/celery.log is not even being created [04:28] holms: line #8 - is that a typo "truev" ? [04:28] no [04:28] no gear [04:28] somsip: hmz, let me edit that and check [04:28] it's unbelievably slow as well [04:29] Koolaids: best to paste that screenshot and stop complaining... [04:30] Do you have a panel across the top that says "Ubuntu Desktop" at the left side? [04:30] yes [04:30] i have that [04:30] sa`tan: removed "v", still the same [04:30] yeah look im working on the screenshot [04:30] somsip: removed "v", still the same [04:31] works just fine in vmware for me :P [04:31] holms: are you 100% about the code. Bash is not my forte, but lookls like there should be a ; somewhere around that while/done loop. And sleep should use an integer only IIRC, and you have "sleep 1d" [04:31] Is source for bash shell only? is it for cshell too? I tried the command, , and it works fine. It does not work with the command, source . Please help! [04:31] somsip: k , can I remove that whole "script" block? [04:32] holms: no idea. Did you write it or download it? If downloaded, where from? Is it 'good code' or something crap you found somewhere? [04:32] i wrote it [04:32] that block was the only copy/paste [04:32] removing, checking [04:32] holms: then you have some syntax checking to do I would say [04:33] csh and bash have different syntax. [04:33] why initctl syntax check is ok? [04:33] =/ [04:33] upstart using bash or csh? [04:33] holms: I know nothing about upstart, I just saw what looked like errors in that script. [04:33] update: http://pastie.org/9885039 [04:33] easy to lookup google is your friend. some people like bash as it is more flexable. [04:34] i'm into this issue already for 4 hours [04:34] with all possible google combinations [04:34] even that logging solution provided in upstart official manual - doesn't work [04:34] /tmp/celery.log is not even created [04:35] how so, there's no upstart log, which actually displays output of cmd? [04:35] you need to start the script with a line that defines the shel [04:35] am.. [04:35] you mean /etc/init/celery.conf? [04:36] !info celery [04:36] celery is irrelevant in here [04:36] Package celery does not exist in utopic [04:36] it's pure upstart problem [04:36] i'll try to remove that dir creation crap [04:36] because cmd itself works in cli === andrex|off is now known as andrex === zerick_ is now known as zerick [04:37] somsip: how does source run on C Shell please? [04:38] crap .. so it was problem [04:38] holms: erm...that's an initd script isn't it? [04:38] with that dir creation [04:38] PSGroup41: no idea [04:38] thanks for hints [04:38] somsip: upstart script, init.d is worse [04:38] solved [04:38] holms: problem was? [04:38] i'm like an idiot, couldn't trim code little by little.. [04:38] stupid me [04:39] holms: that's the cause. What was the symptom? [04:39] somsip: http://pastie.org/9885039#6-9,11-14 [04:39] these lines [04:40] and yeah ofcourse [04:40] var name is incorrect [04:40] holms: ah - pasted twice? [04:40] no [04:40] "CELERY_RUN_DIR should be "CELERYD_RUN_DIR [04:41] holms: ah - ok. So user error and not upstart being wrong then? Glad you got it sorted. I never got celery working on ubuntu myself. I shall keep this for if I ever try again [04:41] somsip: i can share whole ansible-celery playbook if you using ansible [04:41] holms: I do. to pm!

[05:09] ubottu:I know clearly to apply permission using ACL [05:09] ame: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [05:09] Bashing-om: why is there no usr/bin on Lubuntu?? [05:09] The file name is test.csh it contains two lines: 1) #!/bin/csh 2)echo first argument is $1 [05:10] which one is better??IS it ACL or using chmod??I know clearly to apply permission using ACL [05:10] I ran it the file withe command, source test.csh abc. [05:11] bongfun: It be /usr/bin .. there sure better be ... else system no workie . [05:11] PSGroup41: that's not what source is for. you should chmod +x test.csh, then run it with ./test.csh abc [05:12] ame: Best I can tell you, each has it's place and proper usage . [05:12] I did chmod +x test.csh. [05:12] PSGroup41: and then you ran it with source, which is wrong [05:14] what would be the reason that /etc/init.d/networking fails to start? [05:14] PSGroup41: just tested it myself (in bash) and it worked as you want it to. So do it the right way and then report back [05:14] I ran ./test.csh abc and the output was fine. i ran it with source and I did not see the abc as output. [05:14] hi [05:14] PSGroup41: because source doesn't work like that. Why do you want/need to use source? What is the end result you want? [05:15] Bashing-om:good answer...Everything has a place to use... [05:16] I would like the output as: first argument is abc. Right now, I am seeing: first argument is.

[06:29] peter100 yeah, but i run into every stupid issues kubuntu can throw [06:29] konsole, dmesg [06:29] ask them, i have to reboot [06:30] i face this issue randomly, like 1 out of 5 times [06:30] very random [06:31] and when this happens, even alt+ctrl+backspace doesn;t works [06:31] very strange [06:31] then i had to manually reboot the pc [06:33] peter100, see what dmesg says, is it one usb drive or every? [06:33] could just be a bug and the kernel panics - its so hard to say without an error [06:34] ive had a few specific drives that do it- but im old. so- this was a long time ago [06:34] any usb drive [06:34] bbl/brb [06:34] bye [06:34] hi all. i recently realized that xfburn cannot write all files (ie because long files name or invalid characters) without any previous warning about that. On K3b has the same behavior but there is a special warning which files should be renamed. is there any option for xfburn too or any other option to by-pass this issue? [06:34] Hello everyone. I have a little problem, I lost touch with UBuntu for quite a while, and now I can't get to connect Pidgin with Freenode. :\ Whatever ports I enter or use SSL, my account always fails to login to Freenode. Has the settings been changed? [06:35] akis brasero is nice [06:38] peter100: will brassero give a warning for those files need to be renamed? does brassero fits on xubuntu without adding to many libraries? [06:39] I've just did the latest updates on my ubuntu 14.04 and then it asked me to reboot but now I get "Boot Error" how can I fix this? [06:41] akis not sure about if it gives any such warnings, but brasero is pretty good [06:43] brasero should work on xubuntu too, just check if you have all necessary dependency files [06:43] brasero should be in xubuntu;s repository [06:44] peter100: actually is very important for me to take this warning (as K3b does and xfburn doesn't) so i will have the option to rename the file because i proceed with burning. [06:44] akis i am not sure if brasero will give you any such warnings [06:45] and most of disc burning tools don;t support this feature [06:45] im back. ok. could someone please help me format this drive. its getting very frustrating [06:45] though they will verify data after completion of burning [06:45] hello [06:46] !burn | akis [06:46] akis: CD/DVD burning software: k3b (KDE), brasero (GNOME), gnomebaker, xcdroast, wodim (command-line) | To burn ISO files, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto [06:46] try gparted [06:46] i have [06:46] errors stating something about the syncing [06:46] im in windows right now [06:46] i see [06:47] is ur drive ok, i mean , does it have any bad sectors or some physical damages, [06:47] haloo everyone [06:47] its an SD card [06:47] i see [06:47] windows does error about it, but- its just acting weird [06:48] ur connecting the sd card via some kind of adapter?

[11:44] arcsky, but why disable the update available message (/usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-updates-available). that comes handy unless of course you update regularly or using a cron [11:45] jo [11:46] fa7ad: ok [11:47] another question why does this message print out twice when i login to it the box ? http://pastebin.com/q4iu6VJh [11:48] there might be a duplicate in your motd or /etc/profile [11:49] Good morning guys.

[12:01] lotuspsychje, 14.10 [12:01] just checked with lsb_release -a [12:02] Ok so for anyone that wonders, df and du could show different disk size information due to deleted files still being used. lsof | grep deleted will show you the files. [12:02] I have another question for ubuntu gurus :) [12:03] every week i do apt-get update & upgrade to install the security updates [12:03] at the end of it it always shows something like: The following packages have been kept back: linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic [12:03] Tell me, do you people constantly upgrade your ubuntu kernels?

This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [12:04] its not, i don't want to upgrade ubuntu [12:04] i run 14.04.1 lts and i want to keep it that way for now [12:04] my question is if I should keep upgrading my kernels [12:05] 14.04.2 is available [12:05] or should i stick with the one i have now? [12:05] beliali2: no read what it says. its not doing a 14.04 to 14.10 upgrade [12:05] 3.13.0-39-generic is the kernel im using [12:05] so doing a dist-upgrade is completely safe? dependancy wise? [12:05] beliali2: but for kernel updates it needs apt-get dist-upgrade because a kernel update needs to install new packages what apt-get upgrade cant do [12:06] i know its very silly of apt-get but its the way it was intended back then at debian [12:07] * ObrienDave ALWAYS uses dist-upgrade [12:07] anyone has a terminal display problem?

Having checked out the thread here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6495259), I was wondering any of you have practical advice or admonitions against such a plan.

[13:14] k1l: hm, yeah.. that would be needed [13:14] otherwise i was considering an ssh server or some such [13:14] supay: no way of just using ssh? [13:14] nope, i need to be able to click around and see whats happening :( [13:14] How can one create a user without password? [13:14] i can't do what i need to with just ssh [13:14] you can even open the remotes GUI window on your own system with ssh -X [13:15] k1l: im on a mac, would that even work? :/ [13:15] benibadboy: man useradd [13:15] i mean, will it actually show the gui? [13:15] supay: what exactly do you need to do graphically [13:15] k1l: and for this, would i need an x server or something [13:15] Ben64: test things through a browser etc..

Best to just create the user and then # passwd --delete username [13:19] k1l: i am not rebuilding a package I am actually build it from scratch. [13:19] supay: try opening up vino-preferences [13:19] How can i download softwares from a channel???

[13:20] supay: if you're doing this over the internet, you should really use a ssh tunnel to connect though, vnc by itself it not secure [13:20] jfmcarreira: erm no. but then you need to make a signing key anyway [13:20] Ben64: we're on an internal network... security is not something im worried about atm [13:20] benibadboy: You could automate it in a bash script if you wanted to... [13:20] Ben64: and after setting the password in vino-preferences? [13:21] Ben64: do i need to get an ssh daemon or something? [13:21] supay: well if its internal network, then that doesn't matter [13:22] Ben64: now i can use something like http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/ to connect to the server? [13:23] glogic: I got it, by default there is no password... But if I want to su, I need to use [sudo su - username]... If I try [su - username] then it asks for password. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction (passwd -d username) [13:24] supay: you should be able to use any vnc client [13:24] okay.. [13:24] giving it a shot [13:25] benibadboy: Cool.

[13:50] i read that the firefox upgrade broke some functionality of extensions [13:51] floodplain: some extensions dont work on newer versions of firefox [13:51] floodplain: see the #firefox channel for more info on that [13:52] lotuspsychje: ty, i'm asking there too. i was wondering if there a widely known simple solution :) [13:52] floodplain: well, ubuntu can't be responsible for wich addons users install right [13:53] lotuspsychje: you're correct there. [13:54] lotuspsychje: this happens ever version bump - a lot of no-longer-developed extensions drop off the radar as a result of not being updated for internal Firefox API changes - that's not an issue with Ubuntu, that's a Firefox AddOns problem unrelated to Ubuntu. [13:54] lotuspsychje: oh of course - it's the default browser i thought, so i assumed others had run into the same problem ad hopefully had workarounds [13:54] erm, floodplain my last message. === Guest16778 is now known as icecream [13:54] floodplain: well, 'workarounds' would be to revert to the prior version - it's an internal API issue, not a 'workaroundable' situation to get the app into a newer Firefox [13:55] floodplain: or try the same kind of addon on chrome/chromium if it still works [13:55] teward: cool, is there a simple way to downgrade to say version 34 using apt-get? [13:55] floodplain: keep in mind that downgrading means security flaws also.. [13:56] lotuspsychje: true true, maybe it's not worth it [13:56] floodplain: i would rather use current firefox, and search for addon alternatives [13:57] floodplain: i'd suggest just using the current firefox and find alternative addons... unfortunately, that's because of the security content of Firefox 35 being superior/critical/important.

Which is used to manage wordpress and Nginx website. On Ubuntu and Debian server. [14:41] hs366: on ubuntu the user needs "sudo" permissions. the root account is not enabled in standard install. but you can preface a command with sudo to make the command run with root permissions [14:41] sadsagfjg, is it qtgraphicsview? or just the q [14:41] mean I want to install libaray qt for c[[ [14:41] mean I want to install libaray qt for cpp === Carlgo11_away is now known as Carlgo11 [14:42] bazhang: mean I want to install All libaray qt for cpp [14:42] bazhang, Could you tell me.

[15:04] max module is 4g times two slots phoenician [15:05] I also wasnt sure about it because I found varying specs about ram for my machine model, some said 4gb, others 8gb [15:07] would doubling the ram capacity from 4gb to 8gb boost the performance (speed) of a 64-bit computer?

[15:09] ubuntu+ unity [15:12] Hello everyone! [15:12] Good afternoon from Spain! [15:14] I've got a problem with my Ubuntu. Whenever I try to browse the network, no windows machines appear. In my home network there are two computers, one with Ubuntu and another with Windows. It used to work fine, but it hasn't worked for a couple of days. [15:14] Any suggestions? [15:17] how to encrypt any files/folders in ubuntu ? [15:18] !encryption | newuser [15:18] newuser: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory [15:19] cfhowlett: not directories but specific files/folders in any location [15:19] newuser, ! ok [15:19] newuser: gpg -c /path/to/file [15:20] gpg -d to decrypt [15:20] I've got a problem with my Ubuntu. Whenever I try to browse the network, no windows machines appear. In my home network there are two computers, one with Ubuntu and another with Windows. It used to work fine, but it hasn't worked for a couple of days. [15:21] No ideas? [15:21] EriC^^: yea, I wanted to use gpg but I don't know anything about it! so what if I move the files to another computer and do the decrypt then will it work ?? or in a new ubuntu installation on my own system also ?? [15:22] yeah it'll work [15:22] in my experience [15:23] newuser: try and see [15:24] EriC^^: how to use the encrypted data on windows ?? and gpg --help shows -e for encryption and -c for encryption with symmetric cipher [15:24] newuser: gpg -o /path/to/decrypted file -d /path/to/encrypedfile.gpg [15:24] Ok, problem solved, thank you. [15:25] newuser: gpg -c /file/to/encrypt , will create an ecrypted.gpg file in the same location [15:25] Updating solved the problem. [15:25] newuser: never tried it on windows though... so try it and see [15:26] EriC^^: you mean encrypted.gpg as a password file ? [15:27] newuser: no it will create an encrypted file of whatever you encrypted [15:27] there's no password file [15:27] ok [15:27] you use the same passphrase to decrypt [15:27] ok [15:28] but when and where do I enter passphrase ? [15:28] before encrypting ? [15:28] after you type gpg -c /path/to/file [15:28] it will ask for a passphrase [15:28] ok [15:28] let me try [15:29] EriC^^: cool...super easy and handy [15:30] yeah [15:30] is there any way of decrypting and cracking this ?? [15:30] without passphrase ? [15:31] newuser: yes, but it takes a while [15:31] newuser: depends on resources [15:31] newuser: and quality of your passphrase [15:33] OpenTokix: ok but as compared to archive compress and encrypt function how is this gpg method ? [15:33] newuser: as good [15:33] I should be at ease for security then ? OpenTokix [15:34] newuser: Depends what you are protecting against, like someone stealing your computer. - Sure. - Foregin goverment, probably not [15:34] governments for sure otherwise I dont worry about stealing [15:34] newuser: you worry about goverments want your data? [15:35] newuser: And ask about it on #ubuntu on freenode? .... [15:35] lol [15:36] OpenTokix: um, that's here. [15:36] teward: Read the whole conversation [15:36] [2015-02-04 10:35:17] <OpenTokix> newuser: And ask about it on #ubuntu on freenode? .... <-- that's this channel [15:37] OpenTokix: (I was only commenting on that part) [15:37] teward: ok, don't [15:38] newuser: encryption is a multi-faceted thing. Unless your passphrase on your key is cryptographically strong in relation to the bitstrength on the key, it may be easier for governments / blackhat hackers / malicious threat actors to crack the passphrase on the GPG private key. However, that private key is needed for decryption. === AnalogSmartPhone is now known as NetworkingPro [15:39] newuser: if someone has your computer, then they have your private key and can start to try and bruteforce the password for the private key. Ultimately, this is as good as encrypted ZIP files holding the data, albeit you don't get compression out of the box with the GPG encryption [15:39] (unless you compress it and then encrypt the compressed file) [15:42] newuser: so long as you keep your GPG private keys in a safe location, you should be relatively OK. Choosing a cryptographically strong password helps (random letters, numbers, symbols, and punctuation, equal to a character length equal to the number of bytes that your bitstrength corresponds to) [15:43] pkzip has a really weak encryption algorithm, it can be cracked in a couple minutes using a plain text attack [15:43] ^ [15:44] is there a way to set a variable in a ssh session on the fly? so after I ssh to my ubuntu to set a variable like $PRINTER="1" and then be able to use that variable while I'm in ssh and after I disconnect the variable to be lost? [15:44] it's still used though cause some countries ban strong encryption [15:44] i think it's default for winzip's encryption [15:48] hey guys, how can i use ruby1.9 as my default ruby?

I need to switch to the intel graphic card with nvidia-prime to recover the display. my ubuntu version is 14.04 and the nvidia driver is the nvidia-340. [18:51] http://10.48.64.102/POD/testing/futura_book.ttf [18:51] jfmcarreira: yeah those libs don't help, you need the -dev packages, I would drop all of those libqt5* and build-dep on qt5-default, see if that works [18:51] trism: i need to include the dev packages right? :D [18:51] I don’t even know where to find logs that would help diagnose [18:52] http://10.48.64.102/POD/testing/futura_book.ttf sftp://zachary@10.48.64.102/var/www/html/POD/testing/futura-book.ttf [18:52] I mean the File is definitely there [18:52] guite: which logs? [18:52] guite: what graphics card in specially? [18:52] jfmcarreira: likewise for the libav ones, you need libavformat-dev libavutil-dev etc [18:53] guite: Nvidia Cards within Ubuntu are kinda annoying unfortunately, and lately, Nvidia driver updates have been very unstable for me in windows. I would highly suggest moving to a previous stable version or looking into a beta. [18:53] guite: nvidia being proprietary doesn't help ubuntu either. [18:53] trism: the only one correct is opencv since i didnt know the actually non deb package. [18:53] eraggo: nvidia geforce 840m [18:53] cluelessperson: I would check the permissions, make sure apache2 can read them [18:53] cluelessperson: sad :'( [18:53] jfmcarreira: yeah opencv looks fine, and debhelper and cmake [18:54] cluelessperson: and I was looking for logs that tells why I don’t have display [18:54] cluelessperson: I can’t understand what’s written in xorg.log [18:55] trism: what is the qt5 dev package? [18:55] SchrodingersScat: Found it, it's the - not a _ [18:55] SchrodingersScat: I'm a moron. :( [18:55] trism: so where do i define the dependencies of my app?

[19:19] bottazzini: thats the thing, nothing is found related to libgtk-x11-2.0 :( [19:20] bfig: now you're getting to something worth saying [19:20] i386-: Aptitude will suggest you a lot of scenarios, so you will have to choose it wisely and carefully other wise you may fuck the system up [19:20] reisio: i'm trying to run openerp and getting a problem with jpeg decoder, so I need to instal libjpeg8-dev, right? so I'm installing it and the package manager says it is there [19:20] bottazzini: i havent seen any removal suggestion [19:21] i386-: what does it suggest? [19:21] bfig: I guess that depends on the problem [19:21] after that there is the python module thingy package manager(ish) that is setuptools/easy_install, and I think between both pkg managers they managed to fuck it up [19:22] well now you're talking about accessories to python rather than python itself [19:22] hi [19:22] so right now I can't install the packages and at the same time I can't resolve my dependencies.

[19:22] first thing, I don't know if the problem is with something I installed through apt or through easy_install [19:22] jfmcarreira: that is strange, I'm not sure what would cause that, you might ask in #launchpad [19:23] I know easy_install is not the most powerful tool for this kind of inquiries and I don't know the extent of the damage I did, so starting by making sure all apt installed packages are working would be great [19:23] bfig: did you use sudo with easy_install?

It'll end up putting things into an inconsistant state.

[19:35] that what autoremove tells me [19:35] Xano: is this a server of 10.04 ? i'm saying it'd be more efficient to clean install 14.04 - given to get there you'd have to go to 12.04 first, which has 2 years left but there's not much point using today. [19:35] so from all that process seems like i have no broken packages [19:35] k1l: any ideas on how (or if) the `indicators` will display on another desktop? [19:35] Xano: if its 10.04 (see "lsb_release -d" for exact versionnumber) then you can do the LTS upgrade to 12.04 and then 14.04. just make sure the release-prompt is set tot LTS [19:35] i386-: maybe I passed to you the wrong command [19:35] but can't install the i386 libs [19:36] sudo apt-get clean [19:36] yes, but it does like if all is clean [19:36] no output [19:36] daftykins: It's an old server, yeah [19:36] and autoremove is also telling all is good [19:36] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 12 not upgraded.

[19:43] Is there a repo I need to add? [19:43] s/fewh/fresh [19:44] hey [19:44] hje841: well you would have told it to use the partition you created as /, so then you can continue. maybe share a screenshot if you're worried [19:44] is there a software for hardware diagnostic in ubuntu? [19:44] of all the `flavors` of ubuntu (gnome, kubuntu, lubuntu, mate, etc), any ideas on which one is the most popular? [19:44] hellyeah: like what specifically? [19:45] any of them is good enough for me, so i`d rather go for the most popular option (most tested, less bugs) [19:45] cd-rom [19:45] Alan_qwwe1: popularity is irrelevant, lu and xu are for lower spec systems, kubuntu and ubuntu for higher spec - MATE for the old style desktop for those that prefer it [19:45] i386-: run : sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 [19:46] hellyeah: in what way? can't read discs? [19:46] daftykins: in this case, the most stable [19:46] Alan_qwwe1: The differences are mostly in desktop environment... [19:46] hmm it is in trouble to read disc [19:46] Alan_qwwe1: its your choice of which desktop you like. they share the same base system anyway [19:46] hello (ciao) [19:47] hellyeah: well perhaps if you can explain the full story we might be able to get somewhere, but no i don't know of a program that can work on why you can't read discs. all the features to investigate that are built in [19:47] francesco_: ciao amico... [19:47] daftykins, here's a screenshot: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1919429/UbuntuInstall.jpg could I just hit 'Install' here? /dev/sda6 is what I just created [19:48] di che cosa state parlando? [19:48] hje841: yep looks ok [19:48] chi ? [19:48] k1l: yeah, but to tell the truth, pretty much any desktop provides me what I need, except unity, so, I don`t really care which one, i just want the most stable/compatible of them [19:48] Alan_qwwe1 if you don't like unity, simply don't use it [19:49] MonkeyDust: that`s the idea [19:49] Alan_qwwe1 install a different DE, logout, switch, login [19:49] bottazzini: still square one: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10058982/ [19:49] Alan_qwwe1: you can use any Destkop environment with Ubuntu. [19:49] Pici: let's see how --reinstall goes... [19:49] Alan_qwwe1: And the same is true for any distribution of Linux... [19:49] Alan_qwwe1: then decide what is most pretty for you. but we cant make a poll with all the 1700 user in here. [19:49] i386-: Maybe OerHeks can help you out with this broken package better than me [19:50] francesco_: incredibile... c'è italiano in tutti i luoghi [19:50] i have done this earlier [19:50] echo "deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring main restricted universe multiverse" >ia32-libs-raring.list [19:50] k1l: i heard lubuntu is quite popular. perhaps i should give lxde a try [19:50] raring is EOL [19:50] i386-: try reverting the changes [19:50] i386-: that command is a bad move [19:50] Alan_qwwe1: just try it. gogogogogogogogo [19:50] err i386, what does uname -a say ? [19:51] i386 looks like you are on 10.04 lts? [19:51] OerHeks: Linux i 3.13.0-44-generic #73-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 16 00:22:43 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [19:51] i386 oke you are on trusty [19:51] OerHeks: im confused with names and versions on ubuntu [19:52] is just a mess of names in my head [19:52] i386-, try, cat /etc/issue [19:52] i386- then use the version numbers [19:52] as said, i know is supposed to be 14.04 [19:52] LTS [19:52] k1l: yeah, i`m gonna try lxde and after that mate, gnome3 and cinnamon. i`m using kde on another distro and i`d even install plasma5 if it weren`t so buggy :) === King is now known as KingOfOOP [19:52] cat /etc/issue [19:52] Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l [19:53] Alan_qwwe1 that's great but no need to keep us informed of what you'll try next [19:53] i386-: so yeah trying to feed raring v13.04 into your sources was extremely unwise [19:53] !13.04 [19:53] Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) was the 18th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on January 27, 2014. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/raring [19:53] wow, been dead a year now [19:53] mcphail: here? [19:53] !12.04LTS [19:54] !12.04 [19:54] Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is a currently-supported !LTS release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1204 [19:54] !6.04 [19:54] there are bad howtos on the net to install the 32bit libs from raring etc to get software running that is not set up propperly [19:54] :( [19:54] daftykins: so what will be the wise way to go after this extremely unsafe move ? [19:54] i386-: undoing it [19:54] bottazzini use /msg ubottu if you wnat to play with !factoids [19:54] i tried google before IRC to save you all time with dumbness [19:55] MonkeyDust: alright [19:55] but will rever that [19:55] daftykins: what about checking hdd against bad sector is there any software for that? [19:56] hellyeah: of course. "sudo apt-get install smartmontools pastebinit" then "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit" [19:56] sure [19:56] if there was a way to at least move the unity top bar out of there, disable the global menu, and customize the launcher a little more. but unity provides no such things. you`re forced to use it as it is. [19:57] Alan_qwwe1 that's true, it's because in time, ubuntu desktop and phone will converge [19:58] Alan_qwwe1, there is unity-tweak though [19:58] Alan_qwwe1: if you want a complete other desktop, just use another desktop. thats it. but you are way too offtopic. this is a technical support channel and your taste or opinion doesnt need technical help :) [19:58] Alan_qwwe1 thats why unity looks like a phone screen, so to say [19:58] daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10059067/ [19:58] I have Ubuntu 13.04 running on C Shell. The command, source , takes the as an empty string. Is this a bug? If yes, where is it documented please? [19:58] MonkeyDust: forcing a phone interface on desktop users seems the reason why windows 8 failed [19:58] daftykins: what can you say? [19:58] !ot | Alan_qwwe1 [19:58] Alan_qwwe1: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [19:58] hellyeah: that disk is toast, completely dead and needs replacing [19:59] Alan_qwwe1 nobody forces you to use it, now take it to #ubuntu-offtopic [19:59] humm [19:59] because of hot temprature on computer? [19:59] Is it possible to forward private key file over SSH? [20:00] I want to scp user@host:/foo to user@host2:/bar [20:00] daftykins: raring list removed, apt-get update ran, still the same list of broken packages that doesnt resolve with apt-get clean and apt-get autoremove [20:00] hellyeah: no because of lines 64, 79 and 90. bad sectors. [20:00] But I have keys individually for them on the local machine [20:00] i386-: please pastbini the whole output [20:00] Usually SSH commands for them are invoked using -i flag [20:00] i will do again [20:00] one sec [20:01] k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10058982/ [20:01] humm [20:01] so how can i execute ubuntu here then? [20:02] i386-: did you add the 32bit repos as well? [20:02] hellyeah: 'execute ubuntu' ? [20:02] i mean i am using ubuntu on that disk [20:02] without any problems [20:03] hellyeah: it's dead. if you have any data, backup and buy a new one [20:03] i did but seems i confused names and versions and im lost as on how to go to not be called dumb by clever people [20:03] hellyeah: trust me, it will have many problems if you keep trying to use that [20:03] hello all. on a fresh install my gtx 750 isnt showing up and instead i get "VESA: BIOS-P/N@N10282" any ideas what happened? [20:03] gotcha [20:03] I have Ubuntu 13.04 running on C Shell. The command, source , takes the as an empty string. Is this a bug? If yes, where is it documented please? [20:03] Hello admins and super users :) [20:03] i386-: hmm, seems like you made a mess of the package system in following bad advices. [20:03] hellyeah: If you have anything important on that drive, make sure to back it up now rather than later [20:04] My computer just won't poweroff or reboot. [20:04] is it totally dead? [20:04] PSGroup11 is "13.04" a typo? [20:04] PSGroup11: upgrade t 13.10 and 14.04 asap. your system is heavyly vulnerable [20:04] hellyeah: yes, i would throw it in the bin if it weren't in warranty [20:05] yes it is not in warranty okey thanks [20:05] hellyeah: Having bad sectors is a sign of a unhealthy HDD that will at one point start to fail on a escalating scale so back your shit up now [20:05] !language | Tzunamii [20:05] Tzunamii: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [20:05] My apologies [20:05] My laptop just won't poweroff. Even if I type sudo poweroff or anything it won't completely power off and screen is still on. Here is a picture taken with my phone http://i.imgur.com/KQ4nHeZ.jpg Can someone please help me out. I'm trying to find a solution for over a week now and I've googled but nothing seems to be working for me. [20:06] on a fresh install my gtx 750 isnt showing up and instead i get "VESA: BIOS-P/N@N10282" any ideas what happened? [20:06] k1l: but the system rans a dist-upgrade [20:06] k1l: canonical partners is enables, will that bring the 32bit repos? [20:06] Fischer: install an nvidia proprietary driver, is it a 750 Ti? [20:06] i386-: why you need that 32bit package? [20:07] just the regular 750, but my cpu doesnt even have onboard graphics. its tripping me out. when i check for additional drivers nothing shows up [20:07] is the computer of an elderly and he needs to do ebanking.. the application requires so [20:07] i386-: ubuntu is multiarch. you need your software to be 2015 ready and use multiarch and not be like 1995 and go for 32bit only [20:07] he uses ubuntu but needed a new machine [20:07] hence 14.04 [20:07] Fischer: ok i have to leave right now so can't do any due diligence to check for sure, but try "sudo apt-get install nvidia-331" [20:07] thanks [20:08] k1l: ok, so if theres no new version for his bank seems we will have to downgrade [20:09] or, k1l is there some sort of 32bit arch emulator out there? [20:09] migth this be another stupid question for the smartazzez [20:09] i386-: no need to get rude. [20:10] but what can you tell someone who requires visual aid that can't go to his ebank [20:10] i never got rude but was treated as dumb and i suggest to change that kind of tone [20:10] that gpt me ironical [20:11] i386-: i dont know that banking software and what it needs to run on a 64bit ubuntu [20:11] usually ubuntu with multiarch handles that very well [20:13] Ah, why oh why does anyone don't have a clue why my acer v3-112p won't completely poweroff or reboot :( http://i.imgur.com/KQ4nHeZ.jpg <- here is the photo showing how it hangs while I try to power off. Nothing seems to be working. Even by changing kernel parameters :/ Any advance users here? This is based on 14.04 LTS [20:13] sure, is not you at all who should be addressed, i appreciate your help.. is just funny to see that advancing for visual aids on 14.04 lts on new hardware blocks the usefull ness of old school ebanking [20:13] i386-: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiArch, that mentions ia32-libs-multiarch [20:14] i386-: blame the old ebanking stuff. [20:14] Hi, can someone help me. I'm running a website on my ubuntu server. Now the database is offline. What could I do to restart it? (I'm using also nginx but don't know how to find what's going wrong. I'm sure the database is the problem). [20:14] As I understand it, the number of old kernels that are retained by the system is determined by /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal. The comments on the script say no more than 3 kernels will usually be saved but I have systems that have been keeping upwards of 10 which is leading to a full /boot partition. How is the postinst.d script being called and when? [20:15] k1l: i will try via wine and the .exe app [20:15] thanks and good night [20:16] i386-: good luck [20:16] Jeroen1 there's also #ubuntu-server [20:16] rozica, is it possible to re-install ubuntu? [20:17] pavlos: actually it's elementary os that is based on Ubuntu 14.04 I did tried to reinstall it. Also I tried this on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS standalone and Xubuntu 14.04 and it didn't reboot / poweroff [20:18] rozica, elementary has its own issues [20:19] rozica maybe the elementaryos people changed something we don't know, better ask them [20:19] rozica, I looked online, did not see any issues with the acer [20:20] rozica, I mean you could boot off a live usb and then power down. does it hang? [20:20] pavlos: yes, with Ubuntu 14.04, Xubuntu 14.04 and Elementary Freya [20:21] tried all three of them fresh installs [20:21] sounds like a bios ACPI setting issue. [20:21] rozica, so it powers down with live images but wont if you install an image. [20:22] pavlos: no. It didn't power down even with lie images... [20:23] pavlos: the moment it installed and said it installed successfully and I tried to reboot it hanged. [20:25] rozica, can you set BIOS to UEFI instead of legacy and try [20:27] I apologize I was disconnected and I ask the question again:I have Ubuntu 13.04 running on C Shell. The command, source , takes the as an empty string. Is this a bug? If yes, where is it documented please? [20:27] PSGroup50: upgrade t 13.10 and 14.04 asap. your system is heavyly vulnerable [20:28] *to [20:28] How do i use testdisk to recover virtual machines from trash?

[20:31] k1l Description: Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS [20:31] k1l: is there a documentation on the command, source , has taking argument error issue? [20:32] akkad: yes, that is still in support. you could try the main servers [20:33] k1l: Instead of the command, source , is the command, . , working in 13.10? [20:34] PSGroup50: 13.10 is dead. we dont support here neither 13.04 nor 13.10 [20:35] !eolupgrades [20:35] End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information.

When I go to install after setting up the appropriate partitions for Ubuntu I get the message that it needs to unmount an existing partition in order to proceed. Will unmounting that partition delete the information stored there?

[21:37] is it possible to remove items from the main menu in kubuntu? [21:37] you can do that with permissions skinofstars [21:37] is there any nice way to give a program the ability to use a usb in the /media folder without giving it root privileges? [21:38] specifically "suspend" [21:38] add the local folder to a group that the user is in [21:38] celexi: how do you mean? [21:38] (NOT hibernate, I want hibernation, not suspend) [21:38] and make that group be able to read/write [21:38] celexi: ahh, can a folder be in multiple groups? [21:39] (and I want to prevent myself from accidentally trying to suspend, which does not work) [21:40] skinofstars what is your filesystem? [21:40] ext4 maybe?

[21:45] just ask [21:45] I have 3 partitions - 1 for music & pictures, 1 for gaming and 1 for my operating system. When I go to install Ubuntu after setting up the appropriate partitions within the partition for the operating system, I get the message that it needs to unmount an existing partition (my gaming partition) in order to proceed. Will unmounting that partition delete the information stored there? [21:45] thought it would be, at least it is on mine, apparently not in ubuntu cloud [21:45] Dorothy: No [21:45] Dorothy: "unmount" in Linux = "safely remove" in Windows. It just blocks access to the drive, this is necessary during install [21:45] celexi: yeah, it is on my desktop too [21:45] Dorothy: You'll be able to remount it when it's done [21:46] okay awesome. [21:46] Thank you! [21:53] Hi, I can t install Packet Tracer on Ubuntu 14.04. I don t know if it s a OS problem or I just don t know how to do this.

[22:37] DarkAceZ: is this a computer on your desk, or is it a hosted server somewhere? [22:37] DarkAceZ: what ubuntu and system is that?

For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [22:40] gksu nautilus/sudo caja [22:40] I guess that's root privileges...

[22:41] gksu nautilus/sudo caja [22:41] DarkAceZ: using sudo with GUI is known to break things [22:41] well, it does have root privileges [22:41] i've seen, http://serverfault.com/questions/534609/usr-local-lib-libldap-r-2-4-so-2-no-version-information-available-required-by, and tried removing the file, but it does not fix the issue [22:41] I can modify other files that only root owns [22:41] Hi, I can t install Packet Tracer on Ubuntu 14.04. I don t know if it s a OS problem or I just don t know how to do this. If any one can help, I ll be thankful ( or tell me where else can I ask ) [22:42] but /proc/ never stops loading [22:42] no errors [22:42] DarkAceZ: its not that easy. if you say "well it does have root rights" then i say "well its know to not work that way" [22:42] Nedal: So which error messages do you get? [22:42] DarkAceZ: what does this say: "ls -l / | grep proc" [22:42] zerowaitstate: dr-xr-xr-x 351 root root 0 Feb 4 12:51 proc [22:43] DarkAceZ: what error do you get when you try to ls /proc as a regular user? [22:43] ls works fine [22:43] whether root or not [22:43] but the file browsers can't load it while root [22:44] DarkAceZ: stop making everything with root [22:44] ah, so it's a file browser issue [22:44] when I install it with apt-get install gns3, and the installation is done but when I do the command chmod +x ./packet_tracer_linux_installer they say "not such a file or directory" [22:44] quite possibly [22:44] bekks, when I install it with apt-get install gns3, and the installation is done but when I do the command chmod +x ./packet_tracer_linux_installer they say "not such a file or directory" [22:45] Hello [22:45] k1l: certain directories in /proc/ can only be viewed by root, which is why I'd like to browse /proc/ with root === alpha is now known as rogue [22:45] otherwise I have to browse on a non-root program and enter the location I want to see manually on the root browser [22:45] just inconvenient, but if no one knows why this is, I guess I'll stick with it [22:45] DarkAceZ: and i told you already that sudo is not meant to work propperly with all GUI programs. so just blindly putting a sudo in front of commands will not help you [22:45] I've hit nothing with Google [22:46] Could someone recommend a way to achieve history auto complete behavior like in fish but in standard shell ? [22:46] DarkAceZ: did you do gksu or gksudo? [22:46] Can someone help me mod a BIOS? [22:47] bmccoy11: bios is out of the scope of this channel. you could ask in #ubuntu-offtopic or another channel that is bios related [22:47] Alrighty then. === tobias_ is now known as Tg1 [22:48] hi [22:49] bekks, ?? ejuan ?? still here ? [22:49] Nedal: So thta file does not exist in your current directory. [22:49] Nedal: Did you check with "ls"? [22:50] Hi. 14.04 server. I want to install the tor proxy part of tor on the server. Why? I have several PCs on my local LAN I would like to point the browser to said proxy instead of installing tor on each machine. My search terms are failing me...what am I looking for exactly with a search term? [22:50] bekks, yes, I did even with ls -h .. doesn t exist [22:50] Nedal, what is the exact name of the file you downloaded? [22:51] ejuan, I did what you told me to do and do the command 'sudo apt-get install gns3' [22:51] ejuan, when the installation was finished I checked the Downloads directory and there was nothing new in it ! [22:51] oh well then [22:53] Nedal: So where did you download it to? [22:56] bekks, If it s not in the Downloads directory so it will be (normally) in the Home directory, but even there I can t find it [22:56] Nedal: Why do you assume it to be in the Hoime directory? Where did you download it to? [22:57] copy the URL location of file you are trying to download, open a terminal and type wget(space) and paste the URL there...then the download will go that directory in terminal [22:57] I ve downloaded it in Home directory, I just figured it out. But even there, I can t find the file [22:58] i dont think Nedal downloaded anything. he installed gns3 which is similar to packet tracer. [22:58] ejuan: gns3 isnt even close to packet tracer ;) I do know both software products. [22:58] Nedal: So how did you download it, exactly? [22:58] Nedal 'sudo apt-get install gns3' does not download to your home, it installs directly [22:59] And gns3 doesnt install PAcket Trace as well. [22:59] bekks, ive never used gns3 but it will accomplish the same task as packet tracer [22:59] Packet Tracer is a Cisco 3rd party product not available in the Ubuntu repos. [22:59] ejuan: It will not. [22:59] if hes just looking to learn about cisco ios it will [23:00] ejuan, but i don t want a similar! I m looking for Packet Tracer exactly ! [23:00] ejuan: Only if he manages to get a Cisco IOS image legally. [23:00] GNS3 does not ship any IOS images. [23:00] bekks, I did the sudo apt-get install gns3 command [23:00] no offense, but if downloading eludes you, you sure you wanna dabble with packet tracing? [23:00] well it didnt seem like he was going to get cisco packet tracer legally so whats it matter [23:00] Nedal: Which will not install Packet Tracer. [23:01] bekks, so what should I do ? [23:01] ejuan: As a matter of fact, I'll not support breaking licensing agreements. [23:01] i understand that [23:01] Nedal: Obtain the Packet Tracer from Cisco, legally. [23:01] issue solved [23:01] bekks, how ? [23:02] Nedal: By contacting your Cisco sales representative. [23:03] Nedal, what are you trying to do with packet tracer? [23:03] is it something that could be done with wireshark? [23:05] bekks, it s a school project. I don t know what a Cisco sales representative means ! where or how can I contact him ? [23:05] you 'need' ia32-libs lolz https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/thread/74443 [23:05] LOL [23:05] Nedal: Contact your teacher and ask him. === Piter-De-Vries is now known as piter-de-vries [23:07] #quit [23:09] Thanks guys ! [23:09] i'm on xubuntu 14.04 and i'm trying to get the latest version of zsnes (1.510+bz2-7), which was supposedly uploaded to the debian ftp archives (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=740860). how do i go about doing that? [23:09] Debian bug 740860 in zsnes "zsnes is randomly frozen" [Important,Fixed] [23:10] installing debian packages in ubuntu would likely be very unwise [23:11] @daftykins why? [23:11] isn’t Ubuntu based on Debian anyway? [23:11] ok. is there any way to get 1.510-bz2-7 then? [23:11] according to apt-cache i have 1.510-bz2-6 [23:11] Ozymandias42: doesn't mean you can throw packages of one at another and think it'll be great :) [23:11] which sounds like why i'm experiencing this bug [23:12] of course not. But they aren’t inkompatible either. They just have to be managed through apt, haven’t they? [23:12] you would not pull in debian debs through apt, no [23:13] why not? Isn’t debian using apt-get as well? It’s an Debian tool if I’m informed correctly [23:14] so… thoughts on my question? :) [23:14] can anyone tell me where i can change the image that is default on Antix linux boot login? [23:15] Ozymandias42: you don't seem to know how repos work, if you hooked up a debian repo that happened to contain that one package, it'd start trying to update all the rest. anyway, your query isn't even the original one so there's not much point going off on this tangent [23:15] timvisher: go ask #debian how to grab the package, if you feel like giving it a go. you'll need to remove your existing one, then try putting it on manuall. [23:15] KYD: obviously ask antix support :) [23:15] daftykins: Ah of course, you’re right. Hadn’t thought of that. Thx4Info [23:15] i never know whether to laugh or cry when people come in here asking for help with other distros [23:16] from what network or channel? [23:16] KYD: that's for you to look up [23:16] KYD: we are not freenode's personal directory staff [23:16] trying to [23:16] no worries... ill find it [23:16] daftykins: i don't much feel like giving it a go. i was ignorant to the situation. i'm now asking how to fix this bug in xubuntu 14.04's version of zsnes === ubuntu is now known as Guest95215 [23:17] don't know. not familiar with said bug [23:17] timvisher: maybe if you find a page explaining it? [23:17] but likely it involves recompiling the program [23:18] daftykins: i linked to the page explaining it (yes on debian's archives). it seems that there have been patches applied to the zsnes sources to the version that would be downloaded from the source. [23:18] is there some way i can get the sources used to compile the version in apt? [23:18] apt has nothing to do with compilation [23:19] according to the version number at least, they're likely to be talking about the same version [23:19] daftykins: i think i understand that. i'm asking if there's a way to get to the sources associated with the version in apt [23:19] so to rephrase - you're asking how to download the source to the ubuntu package? [23:20] the source that was used to compile the ubuntu package [23:20] apt-source [23:21] i think [23:21] elky: command not found on my system [23:21] no, apt-get source [23:21] apt-cache search returns nothing [23:21] ok [23:22] been a while since i pulled apt source [23:22] apt-get source package [23:22] zsnes Utopic 1.510+bz2-8 === tobias_ is now known as Tg1 [23:24] elky: yep. that was it [23:24] OerHeks: what's that about?

[23:25] But might not be the fix you want, i am not sure about that. [23:25] timvisher: no [23:26] i would never suggest going off of LTS releases :D [23:26] daftykins: ok. that sounds promising :) [23:26] you can try installing utopic's package though [23:26] well, thank OerHeks then! [23:26] how do i go about doing that? [23:26] timvisher: you were linked to the page, heh [23:26] i just confirmed that the sources used for my package don't have that patch applied [23:26] ah. the launchpad thing?

[23:29] either double click or "sudo dpkg -i file.deb" [23:29] timvisher: for official ubuntu repos there will not be an update after release. but you can look for a PPA with a newer version. [23:30] timvisher: or you can build it yourself from source [23:31] ok. do i need to keep the deb around afterwards?

[23:55] umm, i dont remember [23:55] EriC^^: no it shouldn't [23:55] i don’t want it to at least [23:55] in_deep_thought: ok, try boot from first hard disk [23:55] EriC^^: ok [23:56] um that just tells me to select a language again and then brings me back to the same menu [23:56] ok, try rescue a broken system [23:57] which ubuntu is this? [23:57] 12.04 [23:57] ok [23:59] in_deep_thought: any luck? [23:59] EriC^^: ok I think this is where I messed up last time: it wasnts me to choose a device to use as root file system
