in_deep_thoughtassemble raid array00:00
in_deep_thoughtdon’t use a root file system00:00
in_deep_thoughtI think I chose /dev/sda1 last time00:00
=== haubles is now known as snobbles
EriC^^does it say the size of the partitions?00:01
EriC^^are you at a prompt?00:01
in_deep_thoughtno00:01
in_deep_thoughtno, its a menu list thing. like a purple screen with one of the white menus00:01
EriC^^can you drop to a shell?00:01
in_deep_thoughtum maybe. how would I?00:01
EriC^^try sda200:02
in_deep_thoughtsda is usually the hard drive? and sdb is the flash drive?00:02
in_deep_thoughtok ill try sda200:02
EriC^^yeah00:02
in_deep_thought“An error occured while mounting the device you entered. on /target. please check syslog00:03
in_deep_thoughtthat didn’t happen with sda100:03
EriC^^one is going to be your root partition, one your swap and one i dont know an efi partition maybe or /boot00:03
EriC^^what happened with sda1?00:03
in_deep_thoughtumm pretty much looked like everything worked, it restarted and the same issue happened00:03
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok, great so you're at prompt right now?00:03
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: no, it took me back to ubuntu installer main menu, with all the steps listed00:04
in_deep_thoughtI can choose from them00:04
in_deep_thoughtohh theres execute a shell down there00:04
in_deep_thoughtshould I try it?00:04
EriC^^cool00:04
EriC^^yeah00:04
in_deep_thoughtok00:04
in_deep_thoughtwhat do i  enter?00:04
EriC^^parted -l00:04
EriC^^what does it say next to partition table? msdos/gpt?00:05
in_deep_thoughtgives: Disk /dev/sda: 500gb.00:05
in_deep_thoughtand warning: /dev/sdb contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table00:05
in_deep_thoughthowever, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should00:06
in_deep_thoughtIs this a GPT partition table? yes/no?00:06
in_deep_thoughtidk. is it?00:06
EriC^^press no00:06
EriC^^that's the flash drive right?00:06
EriC^^the hdd is 500gb?00:06
in_deep_thoughtyeah the flash drive must be sdb then00:07
in_deep_thoughtso no just took me back to the prompt00:07
EriC^^ok, so what was the partition table of sda?00:08
Prezidentin_deep_thought: have you changed your bios order?00:08
in_deep_thoughtPrezident: if I did, it was unintentional00:08
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: you mean what type? Can I check that from the shell?00:08
PrezidentWhat do you mean ?00:08
EriC^^it should be listed in parted -l00:08
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: its partition table: msdos. 1 is primary ext4 boot00:09
PrezidentAlright if you did that, and you cant boot, are you in grub menu ?00:09
in_deep_thought2 is extended00:09
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok, great00:09
timvisherdaftykins: so that's a no? :)00:09
in_deep_thoughtPrezident: no I am in the ubuntu installer shell00:09
EriC^^in_deep_thought: so there's only sda1 and sda2?00:10
PrezidentAlright i havent been with you from first line, im pro in such things. Whats the result when you trying to boot from first harddrive when usb is unplugged?00:10
PrezidentGo to /etc/fstab and see where boot gets mounted00:11
Prezidentnano /etc/fstab for example.00:11
EriC^^Prezident: he's in the live usb00:11
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: it doesn’t really say sdb. IT mentions Disk /dev/sda:500gb and lists 1, 2, and 5. And then the warning for /sdb. but it doesn’t really give info on it00:11
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok, what's sda5?00:11
in_deep_thoughtlogical linux swap00:11
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok great00:11
EriC^^now i need you to focus only on me00:12
EriC^^lol00:12
in_deep_thoughtlol you got it00:12
daftykinstimvisher: did it work?00:12
EriC^^type mount /dev/sda2 /mnt00:12
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: mounting /dev/sda2 on /mnt failed; Invalid argument00:14
EriC^^in_deep_thought: hmm, type ls00:15
in_deep_thoughtgives all the normal: bin etc lib mnt root sys usr etc00:15
EriC^^in_deep_thought: is the file system all there? /dev /mnt /sys etc. ?00:15
in_deep_thoughtyeah00:15
Prezidentisnt ubuntu using /boot for grub?00:16
EriC^^in_deep_thought: do you have another live usb by any chance?00:17
EriC^^nevermind00:17
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok, great00:18
EriC^^is there a /dev directory?00:18
in_deep_thoughtyea00:18
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok try mount /dev/sda1 /mnt00:18
EriC^^( is there a /mnt directory btw? )00:19
in_deep_thoughtthat looked good. No invalid argument error at least00:19
EriC^^ok type ls /mnt00:19
EriC^^what's in there??00:19
PrezidentWich bootloader did you use?00:19
in_deep_thoughtseems like pretty much all of the same stuff.00:19
PrezidentSince it seems you not having any bootloader installed.00:19
in_deep_thoughtdev, mnt, sys, usr00:20
EriC^^in_deep_thought: you mean /bin /lib etc ?00:20
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok, great00:20
in_deep_thoughtyeah those too00:20
EriC^^type for i in /dev /dev/pts /sys /proc /run; do mount -B $i /mnt$i; done00:20
=== snobbles is now known as sireebob
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: gives a lot of stuff. mostly “mount invalid option -B00:23
in_deep_thoughtover and over again00:23
in_deep_thoughtdid I type it wrong?00:23
EriC^^in_deep_thought: try mount --bind00:23
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: rootfs on / type rootfs, non on /run type tmpfs, none on /proc type proc some other ones, /dev/sdb1 on /cdrom type iso, /dev/sda1 on /mnt type ext400:24
EriC^^in_deep_thought: i mean the whole for i.... command00:25
EriC^^with mount --bind00:25
NeldogzAnyone here experience mounting issues when booting? For example I am seeing the following message for one of my data disks that are fake raided: "The disk drive for /media/user1/data1 is not ready yet or not present.00:25
EriC^^for i in /dev /dev/pts /sys /proc /run; do mount --bind $i /mnt$i; done00:25
bryceray1121How can I get supervisor to automatically startup on boot? I'm surprised it does not already do this.00:25
bekksbryceray1121: Which kind of supervisor?00:26
bryceray1121supervisor/supervisord00:26
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: maybe that worked. no output though00:27
EriC^^in_deep_thought: great00:27
EriC^^in_deep_thought: type chroot /mnt00:27
in_deep_thoughtok00:27
EriC^^ok, type grub-install --recheck /dev/sda00:28
in_deep_thoughtwhoo. Installation finished. no errors reported00:28
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok, type update-grub00:29
in_deep_thoughtdone00:29

EriC^^ok, type exit00:30
in_deep_thoughtok00:30
EriC^^type reboot00:30
PSGroup84How to represent the first argument in tcsh?00:30
in_deep_thoughtyes. my grub boot menu shows up!00:31
EriC^^in_deep_thought: great!00:31
in_deep_thoughtnonow just Install ubuntu? or rescue a broken system? And is this on the hard drive or still on my flash drive?00:31
in_deep_thoughtshould I remove that?00:31
EriC^^what?00:32
EriC^^O.o00:32
barry0bamacan someone help me debug why i've lost internet?00:32
barry0bamai'm pretty sure the problem started after a suspend00:32
PSGroup84How to represent the first argument in tcsh?00:33
barry0bamaand it seems to be both wireless and wired00:33
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: I mean which of the options do I choose? Install ubuntu I guess?00:33
EriC^^in_deep_thought: it should already be installed00:33
in_deep_thoughtI thought it was already installed and we were repairing it?00:33
whodevilhello, I just installed ubuntu 14.04, I'm a little confused, it seems like upstart and systemd are both installed, but not systemctl. Are they both running? I'm confused00:33
EriC^^in_deep_thought: did you try to remove the usb and boot?00:33
in_deep_thoughtno, maybe I should remove the disk00:34
EriC^^ok00:34
pavlosPSGroup84, argv[1]00:34
NeldogzAnyone here experience mounting issues when booting? For example I am seeing the following message for one of my data disks that are fake raided: "The disk drive for /media/user1/data1 is not ready yet or not present.00:35
pavlosPSGroup84, actually $argv[1]00:35
Bashing-omwhodevil: 14.04 is upstart, though there are some systemD elements that have been intoduced into 14.04 .00:35
PSGroup84pavlos: can I do the command, echo $argv[1]?00:36
EriC^^in_deep_thought: any luck?00:36
timvisherdaftykins: it did00:36
timvisherthank you00:36
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: ok I removed the USB, and rebooted and “no bootable devices found”00:36
in_deep_thoughtI think I missed a step00:37
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok, check the boot order in the bios00:37
PSGroup84pavlos: can I do the command, echo $argv[1]?00:37
whodevilBashing-om: so can I run systemd services in 14.04?00:38
piter-de-vriesthe boot from USB was solid advice00:38
pavlosPSGroup84, yes, you should be able to do that ... looking online for examples00:38
PSGroup84pavlos: I should use $argv[1] instead of $1?00:39
pavlosPSGroup84, correct00:39
EriC^^in_deep_thought: any luck?00:40
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: wait how do I do that again? I am in the bios menu,00:40
in_deep_thoughtit just says “ubuntu” and the box is checked00:40
Bashing-omwhodevil: NO, if you want to run systemD services ya want 15.04 or better and talk in #uibuntu+1 . SystemD os scheduled for 16.04 /00:40
EriC^^is there a boot options menu with a list of devices?00:41
EriC^^in_deep_thought: make sure legacy is selected and not EFI00:41
EriC^^*UEFI00:41
TheHello everybody! I need a registration code (because I am a new user at linuxmint.community.com!00:41
EriC^^that sounds a lot like UEFI00:41
daftykins!mint | The Mint is not an on-topic distro here.00:41
ubottuThe Mint is not an on-topic distro here.: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org00:41
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: this screen looks weird. its a GUI, not the typical bio screen. Does that make senes?00:41
whodevilBashing-om: oh I see, ok. I don't really want to get off of LTS, so I guess I'll just wait. :)00:41
in_deep_thoughtlike I can point and click00:41
whodevilBashing-om: thanks!00:41
in_deep_thoughtbut its named the bios menu00:42
EriC^^in_deep_thought: that's pretty unusual ( to me )00:42
daftykinsin_deep_thought: it's called an EFI00:42
in_deep_thoughtok yeah I think thats wrong00:42
Theso how do i get a registration code?00:42
EriC^^in_deep_thought: is there anything mentioning UEFI or legacy?00:42
Bashing-omwhodevil: :-) , we are all waiting to see how systemD flys for us .00:42
daftykinsThe: like i just said, Linux Mint is NOT on topic here. go ask THEM in their channel, on irc.spotchat.org00:42
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: yeah ok when I hold f12, it takes me to the “one time boot menu”. Then I have options of legacy boot, uefi boot (under which ubuntu is the only option)00:43
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok, try the legacy boot00:43
in_deep_thoughtlegacy boot has the cd rom drive, and it used to have the usb stick before I unplugged it00:43
in_deep_thoughtwhich one?00:43
NeldogzAnyone here experience mounting issues when booting? For example I am seeing the following message for one of my data disks that are fake raided: "The disk drive for /media/user1/data1 is not ready yet or not present.00:43
in_deep_thoughtWDC WD500AAKX00:43
in_deep_thought?00:43
EriC^^in_deep_thought: ok, are you able to enter the bios setup and select legacy mode? or CSM?00:44
PSGroup84pavlos; after the command, echo $argv[1], I saw the output, argv: Subscript out of range.00:44
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: ok entering the BIOS setup (word for word) takes me to that weird GUI00:44
EriC^^PSGroup84: try argv[0]00:45
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^: oh it was UEFI, ok Im changing it to Legacy00:45
EriC^^ok00:45
pavlosPSGroup84, $argv[0] should be the command and from then on, the positional parameters. I dont have tsch to test00:45
in_deep_thoughtwhich has the hard drive, diskette drive usb storage00:45
in_deep_thoughtetc00:45
Neldogznobody eh...00:46
in_deep_thoughtNeldogz: I am definitely having issues of that sort I think but I don’t know enough to help you or even tell you if its remotely related.00:46
in_deep_thoughtI know that can’t possibly help00:46
Neldogzin_deep_thought, thanks for the response. I will dig around some more in the forums, if i find anything I will share00:47
TheTHANX MINTBOTD!00:47
in_deep_thoughtEriC^^ ok ok ok this looks good. from the grub menu, I can boot ubuntu in recovery mode or generic ubuntu00:49

funhouseHi guys, just set a web server, the user for nginx is www-data but the user I ssh with is ubuntu, how can I allow ubuntu to create files inside a folder owned by www-data?00:50
pavlosPSGroup84, sorry ... as I said I dont have tcsh to test00:51
reisiofunhouse: chown, groups, etc., yadda00:52

reisiono chance of that00:52
funhousereisio: Ok I did this --> sudo chown -R ubuntu:www-data /var/www00:53
funhousereisio: but, I want the file to be owned by www-data, does it even matter really?00:53
bekksfunhouse: Yes. Configured correctly/securly your webserver will refuse to operate on file not owned by the webserver.00:54
funhousebekks: so basically I need to login as the www-data user?00:55
funhouseor just get a script to change ownership?00:55
PSGroup84[16:52] <PSGroup84> echo $argv[0] does not out the first parameter it outputs an empty string instead. Any hints, anyone?00:55
funhouseBecause changing owners all the time is annoying as hell00:55
bekksfunhouse: Which is even more insecure, and not possible :) Add your user to the www-data group.00:55
funhousebekks: ok00:55
funhousebekks: how do you add the user to the www-data group?00:56
funhousebekks: sudo chown -R ubuntu:www-data /var/www ?00:57
bekksfunhouse: No.00:57
bekksfunhouse: Thats changing the owner, and not adding your user to the www-data group.00:57

andreiwhy my ubuntu keeps crashing on 14.04 LTS with nvidia gpu drivers ?00:58
Neldogzandrei,  how did you install the nvidia drivers?00:58

barry0bamacan someone here help me troubleshoot a dell inspiron 5000 on ubuntu 14 that can't connect to internet after suspend?00:59
andreii`m new in ubuntu, so yeah..00:59
bekksfunhouse: yeah.00:59
bekksfunhouse: Or just adduser username www01:00
funhousereisio and bekks thank you01:00
funhousebekks: ok01:00
Neldogzandrei, I haven't had much luck with the proprietary drivers from Nvidia's site01:00
andreiwhat can I do ?01:00
Neldogzandrei, i recommend installing the Nvidia drivers from the additional drivers application within ubuntu01:00
reisio!ops TransAIDS still pm spamming01:01
ubottureisio: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)01:01
reisiono chance of that01:01
andreithanks Neldogz :)01:01
Neldogzandrei, remove the drivers and install the supported drivers from additional drivers01:01
Neldogzi think you can simply add --uninstall to the end of the Nvidia script package01:01
andreiok01:01
Neldogzit should uninstall the drivers and recover your x conf file01:01
daftykinsandrei: which card is this?01:02
daftykinsor hardware01:02
andreidaftykins, nvidia geforce gtx76001:02
PSGroup84echo $argv[0] does not out the first parameter it outputs an empty string instead. Any hints?01:03
daftykinsalright, probably supported by drivers in the default repos then01:03
Bashing-omandrei: Try : sudo nvidia-installer --uninstall  # this may return not found, but do it just in case it is there.01:03
andreiok01:03
Neldogzsh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-346.35.run --uninstall should work01:04
Neldogzrun this as root01:04
fressehow do I bind a key to mouse click with a primitive command or something in X01:04
andreiI entered the aditional drivers menu and looks to me that i`m using NVIDIA Binary Driver (tested)01:04
fressedoes unity support this01:04
andrei:-?01:04
Neldogzandrei, when you say that Ubuntu crashes.. what do you see that is happening?01:05
EriC^^in_deep_thought: great!01:05
andreineldogz, my screen crashes, it just stays how is it, but if I am on TeamSpeak3 or if I listen music on YouTube, I can hear voice/music.01:06
andreii belive it`s a unity crash01:06
in_deep_thoughtok question 2. Should I have to install graphics cards via the disk they come in? or is there some kind of apt-get fetching that i should do instead?01:07
Neldogzandrei, yes that is definitely a graphics driver issue for sure01:07
Neldogzandrei, i still recommend removing the proprietary driver completely and simply installing the one that you see from the Additional Drivers menu01:07
andreii think that i have installed the proprietary driver from nvidia website and the one in the Additional Drivers01:08
daftykinsin_deep_thought: yes drivers are in packages in ubuntu land, not even on Windows does a competent IT person _ever_ use the discs01:09
reisio!ops TransAIDS still pm spamming01:09
ubottureisio: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)01:09
reisiono chance of that01:09
in_deep_thoughtdaftykins: gotcha01:09
fresseis it against the rules if what he says scientifically makes sense ?01:09
daftykinsfresse: just don't01:10
fressesorry I didn't see where he stated that it was mental disorder, that's quite racist. I'm against that01:13
Ranieri_I missed this...01:14
faliesonI've been trying to setup a haproxy / monit / delegated (https://gist.github.com/brutuscat/2519840) service to route my host traffic through, but I'm not sure what I'm doing01:14
reisiofresse: mentality isn't a race01:15
reisioalso there is only one extant race of human01:15
faliesonis there another command line style chroot/jail thing I should use instead of docker? A friend was saying that for each process/service I should setup a new docker so rather than setting up that link in a single docker I should create like 8 dockers (4 for 4 tors, etc.)01:16
reisioalthough it's true 'ethnicicist' is a mouthful01:16
faliesonis there another method I should use to accomplish this?01:16
reisiofalieson: mmm, depends on what you're up to01:16
faliesonscraping and don't want to get IP blocked01:16
reisiodocker won't help you with that01:17
reisioonly a proxy will01:17
reisioinsofar as a proxy is expendable01:17
faliesonright...01:19
faliesonreisio, tor connections are expandable too01:19
faliesonhaproxy can load balance them01:19
Ben64still has nothing to do with docker01:20
faliesonfine with me01:20
reisiobazhang: would you do something about this TransAIDS dude? :p01:20
faliesonhow'd you set it up? I don't want to install on my host because I don't want to reformat my host if I mess up setting it up01:20
reisioinstall what?01:20
Ben64reisio: they tend to not do stuff about PM01:20
midnightmagicTransAIDS is spamming PM.01:20
reisioBen64: that's their problem01:21
faliesona proxy that rotates tor connections01:21
reisiofalieson: tor is also not going to help you01:21
Ben64reisio: maybe ask #freenode? pm is a network issue i suppose01:21
reisiofalieson: what you want is a proxy or two01:21
reisioBen64: I just asked bazhang01:21
faliesonreisio, i think i'm missing something in your response01:22

Jocce91;)?01:24
faliesonreisio, a paid proxy service made for scraping costs $1000/1M get-requests, way too expensive for my blood. Paying $20/month will get me 10IPs and 10GB01:24
faliesonwhy can't I rotate tor IPs?01:24
Jocce91I need to replace the string "LIBS = -lmysqlclient -lboost_date_time -lboost_system -lboost_regex -lboost_thread -lgmp  -lxml2" in a file to something else and cant figure it out01:25
reisioit won't save you time, and people who use tor to protect _their lives_ will hate you for it01:25
reisiofalieson: if you simply put a delay in your scraping requests, you probably will be fine01:25
ianorlinhow is tor help ubuntu support?01:25
daftykinsJocce91: #bash might help01:25
Jocce91Ah will try :P01:26
Jocce91Thanks01:26

daftykinsin_deep_thought: what graphics card is this?01:32
in_deep_thoughtnvidia geforce gtx 97001:33
daftykinsin_deep_thought: ah in that case you probably do need to add the xorg-edgers PPA and install the nvidia drivers from them, *or* download the latest nvidia drivers from their website and install those01:33

tripelbUB14.04: want to install Libreoffice 4.4 but I added the ppa then uninstalled and dont know how to install again. "I dont know what I dont know"05:43
chowdertripelb: if you didn't remove the PPA you should still be able to reinstall it the normal way05:44
tripelbWhat is the terminal command/s to install LibreOffice 4.4 on Ubuntu 14.04 (please)05:44
chowderapt-cache search libreoffice and then apt-get install the appropriate package. it'll probably be named something appropriate like libreoffice-4.405:45
tripelbchowder I dont know how to remove a ppa05:45
tripelbI will try that. brb05:45
chowderok good luck. if you don't understand something feel free to ask05:45
tripelbchowder there is no such package. there seems to be libreoffice but I want 4.4 9this page told me stuff which I did. https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/2u6mpv/install_libreoffice_44_in_ubuntu_1404_lts/) (but another page told me to purge it before installing so that I didnt have two copies so I did that afterward. Now I think the dist upgrade WAS the install.) Must I install libreoffice (older version) and then do the upgrade again?  <-- I dont un05:52
tripelbderstand something. But what?05:52
lotuspsychjetripelb: libreoffice 4.4 will be default on 15.04, see the article on omgubuntu05:52
lotuspsychje!info libreoffice trusty | tripelb05:53
ubottutripelb: libreoffice (source: libreoffice): office productivity suite (metapackage). In component universe, is optional. Version 1:4.2.7-0ubuntu2 (trusty), package size 26 kB, installed size 161 kB05:53
tripelbchowder, that's fine but I only want to use the LTS. And the new libreoffice.05:53
tripelblotuspsychje, and chowder. I dont know how to apply what ubottu told us.05:54
chowdertripelb: I see. well installing the PPA will definitely get you the latest version. Question: What did the latest version of libreoffice have that the one in the repos didn't? ubottu just gave you information on the package.05:54
tripelbI may give up and just get the regular.05:55
lotuspsychjetripelb: it means trusty has version 4.2.705:55
tripelbwhatever will be will be.05:55

jonascjRegarding grub2 and old MBR systems: the first 512 of the HARDDISK (e.g. /dev/sda) holds information about where the grub2 configuration is located, right?06:10
Loshkijonascj: yes, e.g. Create a backup of your MBR by doing dd if=/dev/sda of=MBR-backup bs=512 count=1, restore it later with dd if=MBR-backup of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1 kind of thing.06:14
chowderits funny to hear "old MBR" systems considering that they haven't been phased out.06:15
Loshkichowder: that seems minor compared to grub's versioning system: grub 1 was 0.9 something and grub2 was at 1 point something. That's fixed, right?06:38
chowderLoshki: lol nope. I do think that grub2 was named because of all the differences between it and grub1.06:40
Loshkichowder: I wondered if "old MBR" stemmed from confusion with UEFI and 'legacy BIOS' boot systems.06:52
chowderLoshki: probably did. I like GPT because you can have more main partitions but I don't see such an urgent need to change.06:53

CheatermanWhich are kinda glitchy! I didn't expect them to work much anyways09:10
CheatermanSo I suggested installing fglrx - I tried: fglrx (standard) and fglrx-updates (both from the proprietary drivers thingy in "software & updates")09:11
CheatermanAnd then I installed Catalyst from ATI's website09:11

cfhowlettbulletxt, 11.04 > 11.10 > 12.04       ALL end of life upgrades.  that's the sequence.  the method is in the reading09:32
k1l_bulletxt: its not senseless. its the problem that you did not upgrade when 11.10 was not dead09:32
CheatermanItsMeLenny: I believe k1l_ has the best answer here. The Software Sources dialog is merely a thing you can get from Software Center, you do something like "File" → "Software sources" or something09:32
k1l_bulletxt: so you waiting 3 years to upgrade to 11.10 is the problem here.09:32
ItsMeLennyk1l_, not entirely, im updating the repo, so i still want the things installed from it09:32
bulletxtnow 11.10 is dead. Can i still upgrade 11.04 to 11.10 ?09:32
k1l_bulletxt: yes!09:32
ItsMeLennyCheaterman, i think i know what you're referring to09:32
k1l_bulletxt: read the wiki page we showed you 1000000times now and you still dont folllow it09:33
ItsMeLennybut it still doesnt explain why all the sources are regenerating09:33
CheatermanItsMeLenny: And then you can selectively uncheck stuff like Universe/Multiverse, but I (late) understood that you're asking about a repo you likely added with wget -O- | gpg add-thingy?09:33
Cheaterman(Or anything new you do for the same thing)09:33
cfhowlettbulletxt, admit it; you're having fun trolling us, aren't you?09:33
Cheatermancfhowlett: Be nice :-) even stubborn newfriends need help09:33
k1l_ItsMeLenny: if you remove the repo you dont get any updates etc for it anymore. and the official ubuntu updates will not come, too, since its another newer version number.09:33
bulletxtim sorry im not trollying09:34
Cheatermanbulletxt: Then please read the documentation. It's clear and very explanatory.09:34
cfhowlettthis ^^^09:34
Cheatermanbulletxt: We won't bother rewriting the documentation on IRC...09:34
bulletxtno, it never talks about 11.0409:35
ItsMeLennyk1l_, i understand that09:35
bulletxtwhere do you see that ?09:35
Cheatermanbulletxt: It talks about EOL upgrades in general.09:35
CheatermanWe won't write a specific page for your specific case. It wouldn't make sense.09:35
bulletxtdoesnt make any sense as 11.10 is also dead09:35
Cheatermanbulletxt: ^09:35
Cheaterman09:35
k1l_bulletxt: it doesnt need to talk about 11.04 or 11.10 or 12.04. its always the same procedure when ubuntu releases are out of support.09:35
cfhowlettbulletxt, the METHOD is what's important.09:35
bulletxtit doesn talk about how to upgrade from a dead to another dead09:36
Cheatermanbulletxt: It does not matter.09:36
cfhowlettbulletxt, yes it doesn09:36
cfhowlett*does*09:36
k1l_bulletxt: its still the same procedure09:36
bulletxtok i'll read once again09:36
Cheatermanbulletxt: Just apply what the documentation says to your case. It doesn't matter that you're upgrading to "another EOL version".09:36
cfhowlettbulletxt, 11.04 > 11.10 > 12.04   THAT is the sequence09:36
Cheatermanbulletxt: ↑ this is what matters.09:36
bulletxt11.10 are dead from what I see09:36
bulletxthow can I upgrade to 11.10 if 11.10 repo don't exist ?09:37
Cheatermanbulletxt: How many times do we need to tell you - it does NOT matter that 11.10 is dead.09:37
k1l_bulletxt: you cant jump over releases. you should have updated to 11.10 when 11.10 was still active.09:37
bulletxtnow its not active09:37
bulletxtso what can I do?09:37
k1l_bulletxt: its explained in the howto09:37

CheatermanItsMeLenny: Most things regarding APT should be system-wide, so it's unlikely09:40
ItsMeLennywhere would it backup the list of sources i have installed to be able to recreate them?09:41
Cheatermanilgios: I know it's a PITA from an embedded device, but could you try pasting aplay -L ?09:41

MalsasaHello. I want to hide my IP by VPN in ppp0. But I can only hide IP in wlan0, not ppp0. Ubuntu 12.04, openvpn, config is from vpngate.net. My complete question was in http://askubuntu.com/questions/580014/how-to-bind-openvpn-to-ppp0-from-mobile-broadband. Thank you.10:58
CheatermanAlso, I still could use more answers about fglrx now that more people are online10:59
studentIf I comiple and install the archive kernels then it was giving me that this ckt module is not found10:59
CheatermanThe issue is simple - using fglrx (or fglrx-updates), both from proprietary drivers dialog in Ubuntu, or even trying the official AMD deb package from their website, simply won't let X boot (no screen found)11:00
CheatermanSomeone suggested disabling KMS (will try ASAP), but other suggestions are also welcome11:00
lordievaderstudent: In Ubuntu it ain't necessary to compile your own kernels, besides custom kernels are not supported.11:00
Cheaterman(in case it doesn't work)11:00
CheatermanI tried asking for support in #ati, but I'm afraid they're all still asleep - and I'm pretty sure we have some ATI users in here :-)11:00
studentNo I am not modifying anything in the existing kernel but I am adding my own system call to it11:01
lordievaderstudent: That still falls under custom kernels.11:02
studentlordievader: I am not making any customized kernel11:02
studentok o k11:02
student<lordievader>then what I should do now?11:02
Cheatermanstudent: it's even more custom than just editing .config ^^"11:02
lordievaderstudent: To me it ain't clear why you need a custom kernel.11:03

Cheatermanlordievader: According to the name (and to the operation), I'd say he's doing that for educational purposes :-)11:04
Cheatermanstudent: I'd say go in ##kernel, these guys are very good, and they'll likely know everything about the "error bad return code" thingy that you get11:04

SupaYoshiyeah11:07
Cheatermanstudent: I don't think so - ##kernel supports just about everything kernel-related, and they'll likely be pleased that you're trying to add a syscall for educational purposes ;-)11:08

cfhowlettRumpelstilzchen, I seem to recall that as of 14.10 it is disabled by default ...15:11
hardtailWell first thing first...I have a second SSD free that I was working on a Hackintosh with. Gonna install Ubuntu on it and try to setup my software. If I can get comfortable with it then no need to get a Mac Laptop.15:11
RumpelstilzchenI see. Thanks again.15:12
mcphailhardtail: I would say, though, if you are commited to Adoba and Autodesk products, Ubuntu may not be the best operating system for you. You're always going to be fighting with packages which are unsupported on the platform15:12

cfhowletthardtail, found it:  http://lifehacker.com/5976725/build-your-own-adobe-creative-suite-with-free-and-cheap-software15:13
hardtailmcphail I would say that for me it is set in stone to use Adobe products, I have been for 16 years and it's just not going to change anytime soon. Blender IS an option for me though.15:13
hardtailcfhowlett thanks!15:13
mcphailhardtail: then, my advice would be to have Ubuntu as a 2nd OS rather than the primary15:14

jsmith-argotecHow would you figure out what versions of libraries were installed with the original release version of a package?15:44
somsipjsmith-argotec: you mean, not the current libs for the current package?15:45
Cheatermansomsip: I think Vyom was merely greeting people - you don't have to be overly strict about things.15:45
Cheaterman(And we generally appreciate people saying hello before asking a question ;-)  )15:45
jsmith-argotecsomsip: yes - not what is currently installed15:45
jsmith-argotechello all!15:45
VyomOh sorry. This is not a question.. but want toshare. I am trying to switch to Ubuntu. And thought to document the process for those people who are migrating from Windows, but find it difficult. So here's my articles: http://vineetkumar.me/technology/ubuntu/ :)15:45
somsipVyom: not really the place to do that. Maybe make a post on ubuntui forums15:46
somsipjsmith-argotec: what package and version, in case it helps?15:46
jsmith-argotecsomsip: if I installed 12.04 from original discs and installed pacemaker what would the library versions be15:47

Vyomsomsip: yea I tried to do that. Forum does have a Tutorials section.. but there tehre was this rule that you cant post links to blogs, but you have to write the article (the full article) there itself. But don't think if the articles I wrote are even worth a dime .. :P15:47

jsmith-argotecmcphail:  1.1.6-2ubuntu315:53
jsmith-argotecmcphail: I downgraded back to that version from 3.3 but I believe there was a library that was updated (probably from security) that could be causing the issue15:54
jsmith-argotecthat is why I was trying to check the original versions and verify15:54
BackBoxhi15:54
somsipjsmith-argotec: sounds like one for the maintainers if there is a bug or some other conflict to resolve15:54

jsmith-argotecmcphail: no not sure... log output isn't very helpful and havent had much else to go on from #ubuntu-ha either. I ran strace and have some output around the time of the error but not real sure what I'm looking at/for15:56
jsmith-argotecsomsip: I agree but I need/want (in production machines) to fix and verify that's the issue first15:56
mcphailjsmith-argotec: that will make diagnosis very tricky. Do you know when the problems started?15:56

marc11657hey! Has anyone got an idea of how I could get ASIO drivers working with Skype in Ubuntu? My interface needs ASIO drivers in order to use certain input and outputs on the device. Thanks!!!16:07
HamRadioAny ideas when Ubuntu 14.04.2 is going to come out? Was supposed to be out 16 hours ago16:08
HamRadiomarc11657 - As far as I know, skype only works with pulseaduio16:08
VyomHamRadio: Just do a sudo apt-get upgrade to check?16:08
somsipheri0n: this *may* be relevant - top answer, comment by guigouz http://askubuntu.com/questions/77191/how-can-i-use-lightdm-for-user-defined-sessions16:08
HamRadioVyom, I can....and that's good for existing installations, but I need the ISO, to install fresh16:09
marc11657HamRadio: Thanks. That's a little annoying tho16:10
somsipmarc11657: WHS - pulse only from the latest version of Skype - I'll try to find a source16:10
HamRadiomarc11657, yes it is.....you might be able to get it to work if you downgrade to skype 4.2, skype 4.3 only works with pulseaudio...although if you do downgrade, no telling how it will work16:11
VyomHamRadio: It seems to be a minor update... why not simply install 14.04 and then upgrade/update whenever you need?16:11
somsipmarc11657: lots of yes/no/maybe info here http://superuser.com/questions/808774/skype-4-3-without-pulseaudio-any-options16:11

foxnetHi all, just wanted to know what filesystem is best to use with Ubuntu 14.04.1 and steam. And I would also like to know which is the most commonly used filesystem in the Ubuntu community16:12
HamRadioAnyway, gtg - have to go do the animals16:12
Vyomfoxnet: ext416:12
somsipfoxnet: I'd chance that ext4 is the most common, but 'best' depends on your use16:12
apm1ext4 is default for a reason16:12
mcphailfoxnet: if you don't have any specific needs, use ext416:13
apm1he mentioned steam i.e gaming so even ext4 is overkill16:13
sarinki'm trying to symlink my ~/.ssh directory, but when i then try to login to my box, the authorized_keys file isnt being picked up16:14
sarinkthe symlink does work however, because i can ssh to other boxes without needing login (so id_rsa is being picked up)16:15
mcphailsarink: check your logs, but ssh probably expects certain permissions for that directory which the symlink won't meet16:15
foxnetExt4 just screwed me over. I formated a partition to it yesterday and everything is missing. I am running photorec to recover the data right now. So I am fidgety about ext4. Any other suggestions.16:16
sarinkmcphail: which logs? also aren't the permissions on the symlink itself pretty irrelevant? (or shouldnt they be?)16:16
mcphailsarink: i think it might write to /var/log/auth.log but not sure16:17
apm1foxnet, no matter what File system you use if you are stupid enough to "reformat" a partition and then complain that the data is not there i doubt anything will take you far16:17
mcphailfoxnet: are you sure your disk is reliable?16:17
apm1he formated the partition not restructure his disk16:18
sarinkmcphail: i think its this? error: Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key16:18
apm1thats wiping the partition and making another in its place16:18
foxnetapm1, I am talking about files that I moved after formating my partition16:18
resc_user_2450Hello.. my system (ubuntu x64) crashed during an update. repaired grub with rescatux, but now it doesn't detect any usb device (keyboard, mouse, anything..) Should I just reinstall? Thanks.16:18
somsipsarink: check the setting for AuthorizedKeyFile in /etc/ssh/sshd_config16:19
mcphailfoxnet: ext4 is fairly bulletproof. I'd suspect hardware or user error before filesystem error16:19
somsipsarink: looks like it's picking up a relative path you don't want it to use. But why would you symlink .ssh??16:19
sarinksomsip: it will point to ~/.ssh, but i'm trying to symlink ~/.ssh to another location. it works for everything but authorized_keys. does sshd not like symlinks/can i make it somehow?16:20
mcphailsarink: I suspect it doesn't like symlinks. Try a bind mount instead16:21
somsipsarink: do you get any info if you connect with ssh -vvv ?16:23
wujiehi16:23
sfrewerhello16:23
RumpelstilzchenHi.16:24
heri0nsomsip: thanks.. i realized i didnt make, make install on sxhkd because it said in my .xsession-errors16:24
heri0nbut now it says display not found16:24
foxnetmcphail, it fairly new laptop and also while loading a previous version kernel and returning back to the latest version in the grub screen total wiped out my desktop icons and even complained about Plymouth crash. I suspect it might have to something with this.16:25
somsipsarink: and this answer contains a reference to symlinking authorized_keys which might help http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/36540/why-am-i-still-getting-a-password-prompt-with-ssh-with-public-key-authentication16:25
heri0nam i supposed to see a selector for a wm in my lightdm16:26
mcphailfoxnet: loading an old kernel can (potentially) cause problems with any filesystem. They tend to be backwards compatible but not necessarily forwards compatible. The EXT filesystems have tended to handle this gracefully, however16:27
sarinksomsip: that was a good post. although it seems like the answer is just to chmod 0700? i did a chmod -R 0700 ~/.ssh and a chmod -R 0700 <link target> and had the same result16:28
Joelhow does one go about keeping python's setuptools up to date on ubuntu? I see the package brings in 3.6, but I have stuff requiring 12.0.x, pip install -U setuptools says a version is already installed, if I remove python-setuptools it removes python-pip as well. Thoughts?16:29
somsipsarink: it also mentions the canonical path. Will that affect what you're doing? (I didnt read the link)16:29
sarinkhmm. looks like ill end up editing sshd_configs authorizedkeys16:30
foxnetSo many potential landmines when dealing with ubuntu. Wish it was easier.16:31
mcphailsarink: changing permissions on a simlink is futile. You need to bind mount if the simlink doesn;t work16:31
foxnetThank you, mcphail16:32

K4kSo, is the shutdown/restart button in 14.04LTS broken or what? I have a clean install that doesn't do anything when these are clicked. Was reading on the launchpad that consolekit might need to be installed. I did that and now when I run the dbus-send command for shutting down it says I'm not authorized... this seems like it might be the issue but I'm not sure where to go from here. I get nothing in any log18:43
K4kfiles when I click the restart/shutdown buttons.18:43
mnrcHave you simply tried 'sudo shutdown -h ( or -r ) +0 ( or now )'18:45
K4kmnrc: Yes, shutting down from the command line works which is why I suspected consolekit as the issue initially18:46
K4kand still believe it's the issue but I need more log output to diagnose further and I'm not sure where to look18:46

rfreeman_wI use ubuntu in VM. it uses the horrible eye candy that makes it very slow on the software GPU.  How to disable all "cool" graphical effects in desktop? or better, how to use xfce4 instead18:56
w-floK4k, I'm sorry I can't really help you – all I can say is that the button is not *generally* broken. At least it works for me and I'd be surprised if it fails for a lot of people, because someone would probably have fixed it by now18:57
w-florfreeman_w, I usually just enable 3d acceleration in virtualbox and install guest additions. maybe you can do the same using your vm software? Otherwise you'd probably need something that is not unity, gnome or KDE. For example, innstall xubuntu (or apt-get xfce on normal ubuntu)18:59
rfreeman_ww-flo, kvm. I don't think it has 3d accel. Even if it had I would killed it for security19:00
w-floI think you can install the "xfce-desktop" package and then choose xfce from the session manager. I've never used xfce though…19:00

K4kw-flo: Thanks for the report. I am beginning to wonder if I've broken something in pam. I am /technically/ on a clean intall of 14.04 but we have configurations applied during install that adjust some lines in pam. I should probably review these files on a clean system and verify that I'm not nuetering them in some terrible way.19:12

liamima do that right now21:11
Goose_Yeah that'd work. If that wont be your main OS21:11
liamthanks all21:11
Jordan_Uliam: Ubuntu recongnises Windows 8 installed for UEFI just fine. My guess is that your OEM made a mistake and left your machine with an invalid partition table, which Ubuntu's installer handles very poorly. Using the Windows 8 install disks should leave you with a proper partition table, and so Ubuntu's installer should work fine.21:11

rexbutlerQuestion:  Is there any reason my audio would cut out when using youtube.com, for example?  Note: a reboot usually fixes it.23:19
reisiorexbutler: yeah23:19
Guido1k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10081136/23:19
Bashing-omarcsky: If you are using /etc/network/interfaces, instead of NM for network settings, I'd make my static settings there; ->> dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 192.168.1.1 .23:19
reisiorexbutler: if you have apps simultaneously trying to use pulse and alsa alone, or oss, or any combination23:19
reisiorexbutler: including oss support in your kernel23:19
vitimitiShould I install the fglrx-updates or fglrx? I don't know the difference23:20
k1lGuido1: now please "apt-cache policy seamonkey-mozilla-build "23:20
rexbutlerreisio: Could the spotify app for linux cause problems like that?23:20
rexbutlerreisio: It seems buggy.23:21
reisiorexbutler: mmmm any app that uses audio could, if "mis"-configured23:21
reisioit's binary only right? I'm sure it's buggy23:21
Guido1k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10081171/23:21
reisiorexbutler: it looks like it has _optional_ pulseaudio support23:21
dachrisrexbutler: what's ur card?23:21
reisioso you might want to make sure it's using pulseaudio, if you use pulseaudio generally23:21
k1lGuido1: so did you install it manually by loading a .deb package before?23:22
Guido1k1l: I think not, but it's quite some time that I installed it23:22
k1lGuido1: since that is what it looks like. a "sudo apt-get install seamonkey-mozilla-build" should fix that23:23
arcskyBashing-om: ok i use /etc/network/intefaces, how do i apply it instead of reboot the machine?23:23
Guido1now I have two seamonkeys installed23:24
=== arun_ is now known as arunpyasi
k1lGuido1: so remove the manual install23:24
Guido1k1l: now i have two seamonkeys23:24
Guido1k1l: any information on how?23:25
Guido1and want to keep all my setting ...23:25
Bashing-omarcsky: ifconfig ethX down , ifconfig ethX up . Where ethX is the indenified interface .23:25
k1lpffft, dont know where that is installed? look in /opt or in /home/username.23:25
Agent_Smith1dmarr, just wondering, would that affect all users (for instance other students on the network) or just mine?23:26
dmarrjust you23:26
k1lGuido1: well. if its setup up right it should use the same .folder in your /home for usersettings. but i dont know because its a 3rd party install and a manual .deb install so not in ubuntus hands here. maybe ask them23:26
arcskyBashing-om: th23:27
Bashing-omarcsky: :) .23:27
Guido1k1l: yes, uses the same folder and even shows the same version - old 2..26.123:27
