[00:17] <K4k> I'm trying to re-install my kernel after having deleted /boot. I'm unable to apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-/kernel_version/ due to dpkg failing on missing files it's trying to move from the previous installation. apt-get purge and install -f fail for similar reasons
[00:18] <K4k> any suggestions on how to force it to install the package or somehow convince it that the package is not installed so I can install it from scratch?
[00:18] <daftykins> try installing an older kernel
[00:18] <jishjish> Hi all having troubvle installing adb and fastboot on ubuntu using this tutorial http://lifehacker.com/the-easiest-way-to-install-androids-adb-and-fastboot-to-1586992378 and the following command. I get the error "has no installation candidate" sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
[00:18] <daftykins> K4k: one you would have had and perhaps autoremoved, you could pop it back in
[00:18] <daftykins> *on
[00:19] <K4k> daftykins: I've got the deb packages in the apt archive in /var/cache. Is that what you mean?
[00:19] <daftykins> K4k: well no, it'd need to be one that's not marked as "ii" from "dpkg -l | grep linux-image"
[00:20] <nicomachus> hi, does anyone here know much about Clementine? I'm trying to connect the Remote Android App and keep getting "Could not reach host"
[00:20] <K4k> daftykins: Yeah, I have 3.16.0.30-generic showing as ii
[00:21] <jayjo> What does it mean to "compile against" vs just "compile"
[00:21] <daftykins> K4k: so pick the first older version that isn't ii, then install that :) e.g. sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.16.0-##-generic"
[00:22] <daftykins> -"
[00:22] <Jordan_U> jayjo: What is the context, and what is your end goal?
[00:22] <K4k> daftykins: that's what I was trying to say before, though. I've tried that and I get dpkg errors about gzip not being able to unpack because there is no space left on device. But I have 500GB free on the disk mounted that I'm chroot'd in to.
[00:23] <daftykins> K4k: can you pastebin a "df -h" ?
[00:23] <jishjish> anyone know how to remove error "no installation candidate when installing adb and fastboot for android?
[00:23] <Jordan_U> K4k: Also "df -i".
[00:23] <daftykins> jishjish: it's an error because those packages do not exist. you're using the wrong name
[00:24] <jishjish> daftykins: ok, do you know the name I am supposed to use for the application name and or ppa so I can install them?
[00:24] <K4k> daftykins: I can but I'll just tell you. It looks weird, says Filesystem "none" followed by /dev/shm, "none" /dev and /dev/sda1 as /boot/efi
[00:25] <K4k> For some reason (and I'm not all that familiar with how things /should/ look in a chroot environment) there is no / mounted
[00:25] <daftykins> i would prefer seeing it first hand to be honest
[00:25] <K4k> k, give me a minute, I'll have to transcribe the pastebin url from the other computer. What's the preferred pastebin for this channel?
[00:25] <Loshki> jayjo: usually it means it requires a *specific* version of a compiler, tool, or library, which you need to compile successfully.
[00:26] <K4k> !paste
[00:26] <daftykins> K4k: install pastebinit then you can just "df -h | pastebinit"
[00:27] <dunpeal> How do I debug a new Ubuntu desktop that (apparently) crashes while X is loading?
[00:27] <dunpeal> (during the boot process)
[00:27] <K4k> daftykins: except I can't install packages in the chroot where I'm running the df commands from >_<
[00:27] <daftykins> dunpeal: try seeing if there are any issues in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[00:28] <daftykins> K4k: really 0o
[00:28] <K4k> yes, that's what I'm saying in all this, apt-get and dpkg don't work in the chroot for some odd reason.. here's the pastebin...
[00:28] <K4k> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10165868/
[00:30] <daftykins> K4k: heh, you haven't mounted all your file systems properly
[00:30] <daftykins> whilst your issue does relate to /boot, you can't just transplant it like that
[00:30] <jayjo> Loshki: I'm trying to install an apache module (mod_wsgi) that says in troubleshooting that the module is probably no 'compiled against' the correct language versions
[00:30] <daftykins> anyway if Jordan_U is up for it, he's the boot expert :>
[00:30] <nicomachus> !list
[00:31] <daftykins> K4k: hmm yeah it also looks like your /boot/efi is 1MB O_O
[00:31] <K4k> daftykins: so, the deletion of /boot wasn't entirely by accident
[00:31] <nicomachus> ah, cool, there's a clementine channel.
[00:31] <K4k> I was trying to do the efi fix for macbook
[00:31] <nicomachus> props on your great bot, btw
[00:31] <K4k> and didn't even think about the fact that my kernels were in there
[00:32] <jishjish> correct ppa for installing android adb and fastboot anyone?
[00:32] <daftykins> K4k: how does this relate to a mac? :S
[00:32] <daftykins> jishjish: we don't support PPAs, there's a package i think for android dev tools - i don't remember the name though
[00:33] <K4k> daftykins: I have Ubuntu installed on my mac. Mac does not like vfat formatted /boot partitions so there is a way you can reformat it as hfs and "trick" the mac firmware in to thinking it's a proper boot partition so you don't have to press option every time you boot up to load Ubuntu
[00:33] <K4k> long story short, I did that but forgot to backup /boot before re-formatting it to hfs
[00:33] <jishjish> i'm not asking if anyone supports it, I'm asking if anyone knows of a way of installing android  adb and fastboot. My isue with ubuntu is I keep running into tutorials saying use this ppa, but the files are never found.
[00:35] <Jordan_U> K4k: You don't want /boot/ formatted as fat or hfs or hfsplus. If anything, it should be your EFI System Partition that is one of those filesystems.
[00:35] <Loshki> jayjo: it sounds like the module is out of date. Is this a standard apache installation from the repos?
[00:35] <K4k> Jordan_U: I think that was what the walkthrough was trying to have me do... one sec, let me try to dig the URL back up...
[00:35] <Jordan_U> K4k: Please pastebin your /etc/fstab and the contents of /proc/mounts.
[00:36] <daftykins> jishjish: you misunderstand, what ubuntu version is this?
[00:36] <jishjish> daftykins: I am using 14.10 - the latest
[00:37] <daftykins> jishjish: so, here's what i did... i went to google... i typed in "android tools ubuntu 14.10" - first result, "android-tools-adb" and "android-tools-fastboot" second result.
[00:37] <K4k> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10165957 and http://paste.ubuntu.com/10165962
[00:38] <koding123> so what is the point/pros/benefit of using Ubuntu Make( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-make ) instead of a package specific PPA? http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/ubuntu-make
[00:39] <OerHeks> !vivid
[00:40] <rpp601> hey guys, can anyone recommend a php (or similar) server monitor i can install to watch my home server?
[00:41] <Jordan_U> K4k: You have a comment reffering to /boot/ in your /etc/fstab, but no entry for it. Do you know why that is?
[00:41] <OerHeks> koding123, Vivid isn't out yet, join #ubuntu+1
[00:41] <K4k> Jordan_U: The walkthrough had me remove /boot and replace it with /boot/EFI
[00:42] <Jordan_U> K4k: Please link to this walkthrough (though it sounds like it's fairly flawed).
[00:43] <koding123> OerHeks, so where am I supposed to ask that question?
[00:44] <OerHeks> #ubuntu+1 for vivid 15.04
[00:45] <K4k> Jordan_U: https://medium.com/@PhilPlckthun/ubuntu-14-10-running-on-my-macbook-18991a697ae0
[00:45] <K4k> Starting with the "Fixing Ubuntu" section
[00:49] <Cyral> I'm having difficulties installing Ubuntu to a USB drive, could anyone help? I have 1 USB drive with a live install on it (Where I can try/install ubuntu), but when I try to install Ubuntu to another USB drive (So I can carry around a full permanent install), the installer hangs at "Preparing to Install Ubuntu", done plenty of research online and no solutions have fixed it. Any ideas?
[00:49] <Jordan_U> K4k: Re-read those instructions. You'll see that it never asks you to remove your /boot/ partition.
[00:51] <K4k> oh... is the efi partition seperately mounted? @_@ I didn't have /boot/efi so I /assumed/ (what's that saying again?) that they were having me delete /boot and re-create it.
[00:51] <jishjish> daftykins: after doing what you suggested and gooogling, and going to those results I can't find a ppa or deb package to install?
[00:51] <K4k> So, to install with the EFI partition, is it just that I need to boot from the live CD using the EFI option or is there something special to get that?
[00:53] <Jordan_U> K4k: Normally if you boot the Ubuntu LiveDVD/USB via EFI the installer will create or use an existing EFI System Partition, which it will mount at /boot/efi/. And yes, it's completely different from /boot/.
[00:54] <K4k> DOH! I guess I installed from the non-EFI boot. I'll re-install and try this again. Thanks for working with me on it.
[00:55] <Jordan_U> K4k: You're welcome.
[00:56] <daftykins> jishjish: *facepalm* no you run "sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot"
[00:57] <daftykins> !info android-tools-adb
[00:57] <daftykins> they are available from the default repos
[00:58] <koding123> OerHeks, so according to you we can't ask Ubuntu specific features in here?
[00:58] <koding123> considering it is in https://github.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-make
[00:58] <OerHeks> koding sure, but not about vivid.
[00:59] <koding123> it seems like a shame it this so called "Ubuntu Member" s don't know what is ubunt-make (no offense)
[00:59] <koding123> *ubuntu-make
[00:59] <fred_> ola
[01:00] <Guest30223> ola
[01:00] <OerHeks> koding123, good luck. i answered as best as i can.
[01:00] <koding123> OerHeks, sorry :) no offense over there I know the rules and stuff, posting it every 30 mins
[01:00] <jishjish> daftykins: I'm not sure you understood my original question. I tried that exact command and get the error "android-tools-adb and -fastboot "have no installation candidate". I was looking for a ppa or any method of installing the tools which doesn't fail and give me an error like this.
[01:01] <koding123> OerHeks, is it against the topic?
[01:03] <rpp601> has anyone ever installed cacti
[01:04] <daftykins> jishjish: maybe you didn't run "sudo apt-get update" first, or haven't got the universe repo enabled.
[01:04] <bazhang> !info cacti
[01:05] <bazhang> whats the real question rpp601
[01:06] <rpp601> bazhang: i goofed on the installation and picked the wrong option for my server. uninstalling the packages and running the install again starts me off half way through it, picking up where i left off. how do i totally remove the installation of the packages, rather than use apt-get remove
[01:07] <jishjish> daftykins: I ran the update command, how do I know if universe repo is enabled? and or how do I enable it?
[01:08] <Pici> koding123: Try #ubuntu-app-devel perhaps.  #ubuntu is for support with the desktop suite (mostly), not really really for development discussion,
[01:08] <EriC^> jishjish: do you have a gui?
[01:09] <rpp601> bazhang: i'm gonna google it and try and get this one myself
[01:09] <rpp601> don't wanna use my #ubuntu help card for the night on something stupid
[01:09] <rpp601> thx tho )
[01:09] <rpp601> :)
[01:09] <koding123> Pici, getting help in #ubuntu-touch as well, thanks!
[01:10] <koding123> OerHeks, and sorry :) no offense.
[01:11] <daftykins> jishjish: well first try "apt-cache search android-tools" and see if it spits out their names
[01:17] <jishjish> daftykins: I get this "android-tools-fsutils - Android ext4 utilities with sparse support"
[01:21] <daftykins> jishjish: you might need to check what repos are enabled then, system settings button on the left if this is unity, then go to software and sources
[01:22] <Steve_Jobs> Anyone know if the Dell XPS 13 is shipping with Ubuntu yet?
[01:22] <jishjish> daftykins: thanks I'll check there
[01:23] <daftykins> Steve_Jobs: we are not Dell. call them :)
[01:23] <Steve_Jobs> daftykins: haha :)
[01:25] <nicomachus> Steve_Jobs: http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/xps-13-linux/pd
[01:27] <beni85> how 2 instal virtualbox?
[01:27] <Steve_Jobs> that's not the new one with the infinity screen, nicomachus
[01:27] <nicomachus> well you didn't say that...
[01:28] <Steve_Jobs> http://www.dell.com/ca/business/p/xps-13-9343-laptop/pd
[01:28] <Steve_Jobs> that's all the rage these days
[01:28] <EriC^> beni85: sudo apt-get install virtualbox
[01:28] <daftykins> that is why this is not a Dell sales channel )
[01:28] <daftykins> * :)
[01:28] <beni85> ok, thx
[01:28] <EriC^> np
[01:29] <Steve_Jobs> daftykins: I know, but we have on the horizon a MacBook beater that ships with Ubuntu. Hence, Ubuntu channel.
[01:29] <nicomachus> "Ship dates for the XPS 13 are 22nd Jan (Core i3) and 28th Jan (Core i7.)"
[01:29] <nicomachus> http://ultrabooknews.com/2015/01/07/gorgeous-featureful-dell-xps-13-starts-at-799-could-be-the-one-details-here/
[01:29] <nicomachus> I'll happily talk about Clementine instead. :)
[01:29] <Steve_Jobs> nicomachus: but there is an upcoming version that ships with Ubuntu out of the box
[01:29] <Baribal_> Steve_Jobs, you don't install your OS yourself?
[01:30] <Steve_Jobs> Baribal_: correct. Ships with Ubuntu
[01:30] <Steve_Jobs> It's called the dev edition
[01:30] <daftykins> there always has been one, but it came with 12.04 last i saw
[01:30] <Baribal_> Yeah, not what I meant, but not really relevant to the channel anyways.
[01:31] <Steve_Jobs> daftykins: this is supposed to be 14.04
[01:32] <daftykins> glad to hear they've finally updated
[01:32] <yoda> is linux-headers-3.13.0-32 the kernel source because the only difference i see is linux-headers-3.13.0-32-generic is symbolic links to linux-headers-3.13.0-32 why the two
[01:32] <jishjish> hi all is there a tool built into ubuntu which burns images on dvd/cd. I want to install minimal ubuntu on an old laptop
[01:33] <daftykins> Steve_Jobs: but you're probably talking about the US right? which isn't the centre of the world :)
[01:33] <nicomachus> jishjish: startup disc creator
[01:33] <nicomachus> or just right click on the .iso file and select "write to disc"
[01:33] <Jordan_U> jishjish: Yes. You can just right click the iso and select "burn to disk" (or similar). You can also open Brasero and work from there.
[01:34] <jishjish> thanks Jordan_U
[01:34] <daftykins> jishjish: if it's too old it might not have the RAM to boot, i guess you might be referring to mini.iso though
[01:34] <nicomachus> if you right click and select "write to disc" you can hit the properties button and select lower speeds.
[01:34] <nicomachus> I'd recommend it, really. 4x
[01:35] <Jordan_U> jishjish: You're welcome.
[01:37] <javelinanddart> Hi, I've tried to install SELinux on my computer and if I set it to enforcing, on reboot, it says the system is running in low graphics mode and It won't let me configure X11 manually either
[01:38] <alchemist_ryu12> hey
[01:39] <javelinanddart> I think it might have something to do with the fact that the selinux policy hasn't authenticated my user to be allowed
[01:40] <Jordan_U> javelinanddart: Why are you trying to use SELinux rather than apparmor?
[01:40] <javelinanddart> I prefer using it over AppArmor
[01:41]  * daftykins chuckles
[01:41] <javelinanddart> Jordan_U: Call me crazy but if the NSA developed SELinux for the Department of Defense, and open-sourced it, and it's maintained well, I would think it would be more secure
[01:42] <rpp601> is there an easy way to set or find my mysql root pw?
[01:42] <daftykins> this is not really a channel for your soap box to be brought out :)
[01:42] <yoda> what is the purpose of linux-headers-3.13.0-32-generic which is a sym links to linux-headers-3.13.0-32 and correct me if i am wrong this is still what the kernel is named/source files for the kernel
[01:42] <daftykins> rpp601: dpkg-reconfigure <mysql package> lets you reset it afaiui
[01:45] <yoda> though uname -r says linux-headers-3.13.0-32-generic
[01:46] <rpp601> daftykins: dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server doesn't return anything
[01:46] <yoda> i mean 3.13.0-32-generic
[01:46] <yoda> but confused because that is symbolic link
[01:46] <daftykins> rpp601: well it needs to be the right package
[01:47] <daftykins> yoda: yeah there are multiple variants other than -generic, so it symlinks to the non-variant headers
[01:47] <rpp601> daftykins: i'm trying to install cacti, i'm having trouble with mysql's 'root' password - i never set it.
[01:47] <daftykins> maybe you never installed mysql server then
[01:48] <rpp601> it's installed
[01:48] <Jordan_U> javelinanddart: Frankly, if you want to use SELinux you might want to use a distribution that uses SELinux by default. That said, what is the output of "check-selinux-installation"?
[01:48] <daftykins> i know for sure it always prompts with the text style blue window and asks for a root password to be defined
[01:48] <daftykins> dunno then.
[01:48] <rpp601> you useless ass
[01:48] <Jordan_U> rpp601: Please watch your attitude and language in this channel.
[01:49] <daftykins> rpp601: i'd recommend you don't make a comment like that again :)
[01:49] <rpp601> Jordan_U: daftykins has helped me before, i was joking :-) sorry tho
[01:49] <daftykins> i am not laughing :)
[01:49] <koding123> rpp601, try this http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html
[01:49] <rpp601> sorry guys :(
[01:52] <Plomos> hoping someone can help me here, as i seem to have messed some things up
[01:52] <koding123> !ask | Plomos
[01:54] <Plomos> i had windows 8.1 and ubuntu 14.04 dual booted on my laptop. got tired of ubuntu for the time being, so while in windows i deleted the linux partitions like a noob and reallocated the space for windows, but now the laptop boots into a limited version of grub and nothing else
[01:54] <Plomos> i tried setting it to boot from usb, but it won't do it
[01:54] <ryu13212> Do you have windows install cd?
[01:55] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Is this a UEFI or BIOS based machine?
[01:55] <Plomos> i have a bootable windows usb, but the laptop doesn't have a cd drive
[01:55] <Plomos> uefi
[01:55] <ryu13212> Try UEFI boot from usb
[01:56] <Jordan_U> Plomos: If you run "ls" from the grub rescue shell, is your USB drive listed?
[01:56] <Plomos> is there a command for that?
[01:56] <Plomos> hold on
[01:57] <Plomos> it sees an hd0.msdos1
[01:57] <Plomos> and then other partitions that it thinks are linux
[01:58] <Bashing-om> yoda: " uname -r says linux-headers-3.13.0-32-generic " says you do have a serious problem. Instead of beating around the bush, what is the real question ? (out of disk space ?) .
[02:00] <Plomos> is there a way to force it to boot windows from grub?
[02:01] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Does it list any (hd1)?
[02:02] <titou_> greetings everyone
[02:03] <titou_> mes respects
[02:03] <SG-PXE> would anyone be able to help me with a PXE question? i want to install ubuntu via PXE using a downloaded local CD, currently the PXE goes out on the internet and pulls from the archive site
[02:04] <Plomos> jordan it lists hd1,gpt4 hd1,gpt3 hd1,gpt2 and hd1,gpt1 in that order
[02:04]  * titou_ never used pxe sorry
[02:04] <Plomos> after the hd0
[02:04] <Jordan_U> SG-PXE: Local as in connected to the machine being net-booted, or local as in hosted on a TFTP server within your LAN?
[02:05] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Good. Are you at a "grub>" prompt, or a "rescue>" prompt?
[02:05] <Plomos> grub
[02:06] <SG-PXE> Jordan_U: stored on the server running TFTP and Apache since i am currently using apache to serve up the filesystem.squashfs for gparted, and clonezilla
[02:06] <Hodgeka> quit
[02:06] <Jordan_U> Plomos: OK. What is the output of "echo $root"?
[02:08] <Plomos> hd1,gpt2
[02:08] <giuseppe_> salve
[02:09] <Jordan_U> Plomos: OK. If you run "ls -l" you should see two partitions (one on each drive) with a FAT filesystem. Which two are they?
[02:10] <Plomos> says can't find command ls -1
[02:10] <Plomos> oh thats an L oops hold on
[02:11] <Plomos> still says can't find command
[02:11] <Bashing-om> yoda: ^^, still with us ?
[02:12] <Jordan_U> Plomos: OK. Let's guess that your internal drive's EFI System Partition is (hd0,gpt1). Run "root=(hd0,gpt1)" then "ls /".
[02:13] <koding123> Plomos, ofcourse there is
[02:13] <koding123> Plomos, youll need a Ubuntu live USB to fix it
[02:13] <Plomos> says disk hd0,gpt1 not found Jordan
[02:13] <Plomos> koding i have a live usb
[02:13] <Plomos> and it has ubuntu
[02:14] <Plomos> but i can't get the system to boot from it
[02:14] <Jordan_U> Plomos: OK. "root=(hd1,gpt1)" then "ls /".
[02:14] <koding123> Plomos, here is the instructions https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreUbuntu/XP/Vista/7Bootloader
[02:15] <Plomos> Jordan: unknown  filesystem
[02:15] <koding123> Plomos, already told you the link to fix
[02:16] <Jordan_U> koding123: Those instructions are for BIOS rather than UEFI, and depend on Plomos being able to boot from USB, which they can't currenty do (for some reason).
[02:17] <koding123> Jordan_U, ok
[02:17] <Jordan_U> Plomos: root=(hd0,msdos1); ls
[02:17] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Make that second part "ls /" again :)
[02:18] <Plomos> ya one sec
[02:21] <HoloPed> does anyone know how to disable the serial console? I need to free up ttyS0. Distro is Ubunbu 14.10

[02:22] <beni85> hw get virtualbox on linux backbox???
[02:23] <KILLAKAT> HI
[02:23] <Jordan_U> Plomos: That should bring you to the boot menu for the Ubuntu LiveUSB you have connected.
[02:23] <beni85> hi all
[02:23] <Plomos> it did
[02:23] <Plomos> so hit try?
[02:23] <KILLAKAT> HELLO
[02:23] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Yes.
[02:23] <Plomos> k loading
[02:23] <KILLAKAT> this is the first time i used this chatroom
[02:24] <KILLAKAT> anyone play freedroid rpg?
[02:24] <OerHeks> beni85, ask in a backbox support room, we support ubuntu only
[02:24] <Plomos> ok it loaded into the live environment
[02:24] <Jordan_U> KILLAKAT: Welcome to #ubuntu! If you have a support question please ask. For other offtopic discussion please join #ubuntu-offtopic.
[02:24] <beni85> oooo...
[02:25] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Great. Please pastebin the output of "sudo efibootmgr".
[02:26] <Plomos> says command not found
[02:26] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Are you sure that you spelled it correctly?
[02:27] <Plomos> ya i put it in terminal without the quotes right?
[02:27] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Correct. What version of Ubuntu is on this LiveUSB?
[02:27] <Plomos> 14.04.1
[02:28] <Jordan_U> Plomos: 64 bit or 32 bit?
[02:28] <Plomos> 64
[02:28] <Jordan_U> Plomos: What is the output of just "efibootmgr"?
[02:29] <Plomos> no command efi found, did you mean:
[02:29] <spacekookie> Question: I'm trying to install ZFS on my Ubuntu Server this way: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/pkg-zfs/wiki/HOWTO-install-Ubuntu-to-a-Native-ZFS-Root-Filesystem#step-1-prepare-the-install-environment
[02:30] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Please run the exact command, and copy and paste the full output to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com , then post a link to the output here.
[02:30] <spacekookie> However aptitude can't find any of the packages that should be added via the ppa...any idea what I could try to fix that?
[02:32] <EriC^> spacekookie: which ubuntu are you using?
[02:32] <OerHeks> spacekookie, are you on 64 bit ubuntu ? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZFS
[02:32] <Jordan_U> Plomos: I need to leave soon.
[02:32] <spacekookie> Should be Ubuntu Server 14.10 64 bit
[02:33] <Plomos> says it is currently not installed, you can install it by typing sudo apt-get install efibootmgr
[02:33] <OerHeks> spacekookie, after adding that ppa, reload: sudo apt-get update
[02:34] <Jordan_U> Plomos: OK. Please do so then.
[02:34] <Plomos> done
[02:34] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Please pastebin the output of "sudo efibootmgr" now.
[02:35] <spacekookie> OerHeks, I already do that. And it doesn't tell me about any errors
[02:35] <EriC^> spacekookie: type cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*zfs*
[02:36] <spacekookie> EriC^, http://pastebin.com/x1vm2mwA
[02:38] <Plomos> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10167139/
[02:38] <EriC^> spacekookie: can you type cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ?
[02:38] <EriC^> spacekookie: i wonder why it says saucy there
[02:40] <spacekookie> EriC^, There you go: http://pastebin.com/gp6YcSZ9
[02:40] <EriC^> thx
[02:41] <Plomos> part of paste was missing, here http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10167167/
[02:41] <EriC^> spacekookie: what's cat /etc/issue say?
[02:41] <nickels> know what it was I couldn't figure out with with MonoDevelop that deb line.... SEARCH in the software center, pulls up a MonoDevelop icon to install it... but if you go to development from the first window and hit Mono / CLI there isn't.
[02:42] <spacekookie> EriC^, ==> "Ubuntu 14.10 \n \l"
[02:43] <Jordan_U> Plomos: You don't have a Windows boot entry in your firmware, which makes me sceptical that you have a valid Windows installation at all.
[02:43] <Plomos> i just used it last night, i know it's there
[02:43] <nickels> happy happy happy to be xubuntu nappy.. I tried out ubuntu also
[02:44] <Jordan_U> Plomos: What is the output of "sudo os-prober"?
[02:44] <EriC^> Plomos: maybe you're using legacy?
[02:45] <Plomos> dev/sda2@/efi/Microsoft/Boot/bootmfgw.efi:Windows Boot Manager:Windows:efi
[02:46] <EriC^> Plomos: are you in the installation right now or a live usb?
[02:46] <Plomos> live usb
[02:47] <EriC^> what's the output of sudo parted -l ?
[02:48] <Plomos> model: ATA Toshiba MQ01ABD0 (scsi)
[02:49] <EriC^> Plomos: paste the whole thing in paste.ubuntu.com
[02:49] <Jordan_U> Plomos: sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/
[02:52] <Jordan_U> Plomos: If that completes without any error then run "sudo grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/mnt/ --boot-directory=/mnt/".
[02:56] <Jordan_U> Plomos: I'm leaving very soon. If you can reply more promptly, it's in your best interest to do so.
[02:56] <Plomos> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10167318/
[02:56] <EriC^> um, is it just me or is there no ubuntu installation?
[02:57] <Jordan_U> EriC^: Plomos has no Ubuntu installation, they accidentally deleted it without realizing that doing so would affect their ability to boot Windows.
[02:58] <EriC^> Plomos: sudo efibootmgr -c -w -l \\EFI\\Microsoft\\Boot\\bootmgfw.efi -L "Windows" -p 2 -d /dev/sda
[02:59] <Plomos> trying to type these and read at same time
[02:59] <EriC^> Plomos: type the above then type sudo efibootmgr -v and paste it please
[02:59] <Plomos> Joran yours says modinfo.sh doesn't exist
[02:59] <koding123> EriC^, have you seen his question? he removed the Ubuntu partition, and now unable to boot into Wind0ws basically helping him is offtopic for this channel foreword him to #windows ;)
[02:59] <Jordan_U> Plomos: Ignore my grub-install advice for now, EriC^'s solution is cleaner.
[03:00] <Plomos> ok
[03:00] <akkad> is an upgrade to libc6 safe?
[03:00] <Jordan_U> akkad: How and why are you trying to upgrade libc6?
[03:00] <akkad> apt-get -f install
[03:01] <akkad> as a result of apt-get install python-pycurl -> a ton of {package} : Depends: libc6
[03:02] <akkad> nvm. will remove the bogus apt-repo entry
[03:02] <koding123> akkad, run a, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get -f install && sudo apt-get autoremove
[03:03] <Jordan_U> koding123: Helping people get Windows booting again after (improperly) removing Ubuntu is most definitely on topic for this channel, especially when we are doing so entirely using Ubuntu. We aren't just going to leave users stranded without their OS of choice because they made a mistake while trying to remove Ubuntu.
[03:04] <Plomos> connected to irc via a seperate computer so will have to type this output out real quick in pastebin
[03:04] <herent> Good morning - wondering if anyone knows how to change the 'master' os for controlling the boot? I have 3 installs, on 2 drives. Two are on a regular 2.5", another one on a mSATA. That's mostly fresh, and is the one I want to use from now on so I can wipe the old ones on the 2.5. But the boot drive and grub are managed by an OS that will be removed when I replace the 2.5
[03:05] <NegativeFlare> herent: you mean GRUB?
[03:05] <EriC^> Plomos: just type out the boot order, and the Windows entry
[03:05] <NegativeFlare> I'm confused xD
[03:06] <herent> NegativeFlare, It's using uefi, but the os that rebuilds that with sudo update-grub and the boot partition are on a drive I want to replace
[03:06] <EriC^> Plomos: just check that it says File(\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi)
[03:06] <herent> I have a new OS ready to go on a different drive, and can boot into it
[03:06] <herent> Not sure how to do that if I remove the other drive first
[03:06] <NegativeFlare> Well, honestly. I hate uEFI. So I honestly don't have a clue.
[03:07] <herent> Yeah, I kind of hate it, too, but didn't have a lot of choice when first installing
[03:07] <Plomos> Eric, its not listing the microsoft one
[03:07] <EriC^> what's the boot order?
[03:07] <herent> And can't take the downtime to totally wipe everything and build it with classic boot
[03:07] <Plomos> BootOrder 0008,0003,0006,0007
[03:08] <EriC^> ok 0008 is new i think
[03:08] <EriC^> it must be there i guess
[03:08] <EriC^> you could take a leap of faith and try to restart i guess
[03:08] <Plomos> oh 8 says windows on the end
[03:08] <EriC^> does it say \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi ?
[03:09] <Plomos> no
[03:09] <orbisvicis> the ubuntu 8.04 dvd has no md5sum ?
[03:09] <lasagn4> hi. i installed a virtualbox.deb file manually instead of the mainted apt-get packages, now , how do i uninstall it?
[03:09] <xangua> why would you use 8.04 to beggin with¿
[03:09] <EriC^> Plomos: i'd try to restart
[03:09] <Plomos> ok
[03:09] <Ben64> orbisvicis: 8.04 is EOL, don't use it
[03:09] <Plomos> here goes
[03:10] <orbisvicis> Ben64: need to
[03:10] <Ben64> lasagn4: dpkg -r <package>
[03:10] <Ben64> orbisvicis: no you don't
[03:10] <Plomos> booted to the minimal grub
[03:10] <orbisvicis> Ben64: I need to evaluate a gtk1 program, see if its worth porting
[03:11] <lasagn4> thanks
[03:11] <lasagn4> how do i search what packages are installed?
[03:11] <EriC^> Plomos: if you press esc while it boots, can you get a boot options menu?
[03:11] <Ben64> lasagn4: dpkg -l
[03:11] <Plomos> no
[03:11] <EriC^> Plomos: ok, type ls -l in grub
[03:12] <Plomos> -l not found
[03:12] <Jordan_U> EriC^: Ubuntu's minimal UEFI secure boot doesn't have the modules needed for the "-l" switch to grub's ls :(
[03:13] <EriC^> oh
[03:13] <Jordan_U> EriC^: Were you here for how we got booted into the Ubuntu LiveUSB from the grub shell?
[03:14] <EriC^> nope
[03:14] <Jordan_U> EriC^: root=(hd0,msdos1); configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[03:15] <Plomos> you want me to run that again?
[03:15] <EriC^> can we try to boot the microsoft efi file?
[03:15] <Jordan_U> EriC^: Now that we know that Windows is on sda2, we can try "root=(hd1,gpt2)" though.
[03:15] <Plomos> which do you want me to try?
[03:16] <Jordan_U> EriC^: So: root=(hd1,gpt2); chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi # I think will boot Windows.
[03:16] <EriC^> ok, cool, Plomos please type those commands
[03:17] <Plomos> the chainloader?
[03:17] <Jordan_U> EriC^: Plomos: I'm off for now, good luck!
[03:17] <Plomos> ok thanks
[03:18] <EriC^> Jordan_U: thanks for the help
[03:18] <UnrealXero> question, I am currently using this command to output the total amount of RAM in bytes "free -b | grep -i Mem | awk '{print $2}'"
[03:19] <Jordan_U> EriC^: You're welcome.
[03:19] <Plomos> is the # included in the command?
[03:19] <Ben64> UnrealXero: wheres the question
[03:19] <EriC^> Plomos: no, type root=(hd1,gpt2)
[03:19] <Plomos> done
[03:20] <EriC^> Plomos: ok, type chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
[03:20] <Plomos> and typing chainloader /Efi/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi gives a file path for it
[03:20] <Plomos> but doesn't seem to do anything else
[03:21] <EriC^> Plomos: type ls /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/
[03:22] <Jordan_U_phone> Plomos: "boot"
[03:23] <Plomos> boot for which part?
[03:23] <EriC^> Plomos: type boot
[03:24] <Plomos> unknown error
[03:25] <Plomos> ls /efi/microsoft/boot lists a bunch of files eric
[03:25] <EriC^> Plomos: that's good
[03:26] <Plomos> part of it says Resources/ BCD.Log1 BCD.log2 boot.stl bootmgfw.efi bootmgr.efi memtest.efi
[03:26] <Plomos> most of the output is language files
[03:29] <Plomos> what about bootmgr.efi?
[03:30] <EriC^> Plomos: i wonder if there's a way to get the uuid of the efi partition from grub, maybe that'd work, type edit (hd0,msdos1)/boot/grub/grub.cfg
[03:30] <EriC^> Plomos: nevermind i guess that won't work
[03:31] <Plomos> ok
[03:31] <EriC^> Plomos: i dont think bootmgr.efi works
[03:31] <Plomos> k
[03:31] <EriC^> there's another file in /EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi that might though
[03:31] <EriC^> Plomos: type chainloader /EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi
[03:32] <HelloSquared> Hello, im a bit of a bind. I lost power briefly earlier today, and i cannot boot my ubuntu install. It loads into grub, i select ubuntu and it stays on a purple acreen
[03:32] <Plomos> k hold on
[03:33] <Plomos> comes back with /EndEntire and a file path
[03:33] <EriC^> Plomos: hmm, try boot
[03:33] <scott> after a recent update on ubuntu 14.04 I no longer have a clang binary (I have clang-3.5 installed). it has a binary named clang-3.5, but is there an explanation why the `clang` symlink was removed?
[03:33] <HelloSquared> When i try to boot into recovery mode, it asks for the encryption key which i an 100% sure is correct but it says it is wrong
[03:33] <Plomos> its trying
[03:34] <Plomos> awesome
[03:34] <Plomos> it worked
[03:34] <Plomos> THANK YOU
[03:34] <Plomos> how do i make sure it keeps booting into windows?
[03:35] <Bashing-om> HelloSquared: Run a file system check from the liveDVD ?
[03:36] <EriC^> Plomos: cool, np, you need to boot the ubuntu live usb again and add that instead of /Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
[03:37] <Plomos> oh, crap, ok, so i have to go back to grub and then boot into live usb?
[03:37] <EriC^> yeah
[03:37] <scott> is there a way to get an up to date changelog for a package? the most recent change shown for clang-3.5 is Sun, 23 Mar 2014 (at http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/clang-3.5)
[03:37] <Plomos> alright, gotta find the command for booting the live usb
[03:38] <HelloSquared> Bashing-om ok let me get the live cd out....
[03:39] <Plomos> EriC^ what is the first part of the command i need before Microsoft/Boot/bootx64.efi?
[03:40] <Bashing-om> HelloSquared: K, same same release as the install .
[03:40] <HelloSquared> Yep
[03:40] <HelloSquared> Do drives get locked when mounted?
[03:40] <EriC^> Plomos: sudo efibootmgr -c -w -l \\EFI\\Boot\\bootx64.efi -L "windows" -p 2 -d /dev/sda
[03:42] <Bashing-om> HelloSquared: If the system detects a problem then the files system is put into a read only mode, to protect it's self from further damage .
[03:42] <HelloSquared> While in setting this up. I get bio: create slab (bio-1) at 1
[03:43] <Plomos> ok, working on it
[03:43] <EriC^> Plomos: there's no Microsoft
[03:43] <HelloSquared> Whenever i try to get into recovery mode and it says cryptsetup failed bad password or options
[03:43] <Plomos> oh ok
[03:43] <Bashing-om> HelloSquared: Never encounted such before, I do not know .
[03:44] <HelloSquared> I am in a pretty serious pickle then
[03:45] <Bashing-om> HelloSquared: We can hope that the file system check/repair will correct the corrupted 'password-encrpytion' file . We can hope .
[03:45] <farva> I have some one actively ddosing one of the IPs on my server and I can't track the IP, can some one help me find them? I don't know much about networking and only have one command I know to see ips connected, but am not sure which it is, or what it is connected to
[03:46] <farva> this is all I know: netstat -ntu | awk '{print $5}' | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
[03:46] <farva> and I for some reason cannot -drop ips on my IP tables, even though they are installed
[03:46] <HelloSquared> Wow
[03:47] <farva> so I kind of have a slew of issues here and really would like to get proper protection setup
[03:47] <HelloSquared> I restarted and it worked
[03:47] <HelloSquared> Three hours of it not working and suddenly its fine
[03:48] <HelloSquared> Well that was scary. Would have lost a day of work. Always back up! Thanks for the help, no idea what that was about
[03:48] <farva> can some one please help with this, I really need to get these things figured out
[03:49] <farva> I have tried setting up UHC and ended up locking myself out of the server...I can't be trusted to do these things lol
[03:49] <Bashing-om> HelloSquared: Great ! I still would -> sudo touch /forcefsck , sudo shutdown -r now <- ( sets up to do a file system check on next boot, and then reboot to do it )
[03:49] <Plomos> Eric, since its the live usb it doesn't think it has efibootmgr installed
[03:49] <farva> my biggest question is how do I locate the IP of the person ddosing
[03:50] <farva> and then how do I ban that IP if IP tables are not allowing me to -drop
[03:50] <EriC^> Plomos: no problem, type sudo apt-get install efibootmgr
[03:50] <Plomos> k
[03:50] <Plomos> got that, now to put in new command
[03:52] <nabn> anybody use synapse here?
[03:53] <Plomos> hey hey hey, says bootorder now starts with 0005 and 0005 is listed as windows
[03:53] <Plomos> here goes
[03:53] <farva> I know there is a specific program I can also run to track connections even if I cannot connect to the server machine itself, does anyone know the name of it though?
[03:53] <EriC^> nice
[03:53] <farva> I have to be able to do something to deter ddos on this server
[03:54] <Plomos> i see the spinning dots
[03:54] <Plomos> booted to my windows login screen
[03:54] <EriC^> nice
[03:54] <Plomos> is it safe to remove the ubuntu stuff left over or?
[03:55] <EriC^> like what
[03:55] <Plomos> seems like it had some partition left over
[03:55] <EriC^> ok you mean the stuff in the efi partition?
[03:56] <EriC^> *oh
[03:56] <Plomos> ya
[03:56] <farva> surely some one can at least point me in the right direction please?
[03:57] <EriC^> yeah you can remove it if you want, but it doesn't take up any space anyways like 1mb or so
[03:57] <Plomos> good point
[03:57] <Plomos> I'd buy you and Jordan a beer, but we don't live next to each other
[03:58] <Plomos> farva, do you have a firewall of some sort?
[03:59] <Plomos> or surely a router that can block ports?
[03:59] <farva> I only have iptables
[03:59] <farva> it is a server machine at a datacenter
[04:00] <farva> I tried installing UHC but it locked me and everyone else out of the machine
[04:00] <orbisvicis> why isn't libgtk1.2 available for hardy ?
[04:00] <farva> I know absolutely nothing about networking unfortunately
[04:00] <orbisvicis> I've updated the sources.list for old-releases, and according to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/i386/libgtk1.2 there should be packages
[04:01] <farva> so setting up IP tables and firewalls is like....what to do..
[04:01] <EriC^> !info libgtk1.2 hardy
[04:01] <farva> hell, I hardly know jack about linux, I am only 4 months in on all this
[04:02] <farva> right now the guy is actively dosing the server as we speak
[04:02] <farva> I rerouted the IP and put our programs on another, updated dns etc so he is hitting a dead end atm
[04:03] <farva> but I would like to track his IP so I know who it is and I can deal with him more quickly (as well as actively ban him) in the future
[04:03] <Plomos> thanks for the help guys, have a good one
[04:03] <EriC^> you too
[04:03] <farva> I just don't know how to find the IP that is connecting to that specific IP on the server
[04:04] <EriC^> nothing showed up when you ran netstat -tun on it?
[04:04] <farva> let me see, idk that command-do I just run that righ there?
[04:04] <Natsuki> hi
[04:04] <EriC^> farva: you pasted it earlier
[04:04] <Natsuki> ubottu
[04:04] <farva> oh that
[04:04] <orbisvicis> oh, I forgot to uncomment universe, heh
[04:05] <Natsuki> ubottu
[04:05] <Natsuki> jejeje
[04:05] <farva> well, I had a suspicious IP with 10 connections
[04:05] <Natsuki> no?
[04:05] <farva> we ran it against a list of known ddosers and it was on there
[04:05] <Natsuki> Toll?
[04:05] <Natsuki> Troll Detected
[04:05] <farva> so I tried to add him to the -DROP list on our IP tables and it denied me the command
[04:05] <Natsuki> español?
[04:05] <Natsuki> spanish?
[04:07] <farva> this is the error it gives me when I tried to block the IP in question: http://gyazo.com/f715b2ed76ed2448a489de6b988e5f77
[04:07] <farva> so I checked that IP tables was up to date and it was
[04:07] <Natsuki> farva
[04:08] <farva> yea
[04:09] <cfhowlett> farva, much easier to use ufw command
[04:09] <Natsuki> farva join my chanel
[04:09] <farva> I have tried installing it, (sorry I called it uhc earlier) but it locked me out of the machine entirely and my datacenter had to disable it to get us back in
[04:10] <farva> I would prefer to talk about it in open chat so that I have other sets of eyes that can warn me if I am doing something I shouldn't. No offense I really do appreciate the offer, I am just especially cautious
[04:11] <farva> I know I have ufw installed but I don't know how to undo what was done that locked us out of the network to begin with
[04:11] <SG-PXE> would anyone be able to help me with a PXE question? i want to install ubuntu via PXE using a downloaded local CD imagestored on the server running TFTP & Apache, currently the PXE goes out on the internet and pulls from the archive site. Apache is serving up the filesystem.squashfs for gparted
[04:12] <cfhowlett> farva, man ufw         in a terminal will inform you of usage
[04:12] <Natsuki> farva bot created
[04:12] <eviltwinzzz> greetings, anyone here real ubuntu experts?
[04:12] <jishjish> hi - can someone reply to test if this is working?....
[04:12] <cfhowlett> !test | jishjish
[04:13] <eviltwinzzz> I can see you jish
[04:13] <Natsuki> 2 farva
[04:13] <Natsuki> farva bot
[04:13] <svetlana> farva: upon seeing the error I would include the kernel and iptables version in the question. oh, and run that iptables command as sudo, perhaps?
[04:13] <svetlana> jishjish: works
[04:13] <Natsuki> farva friend?
[04:13] <svetlana> can we please stop asking 'friend?' in here. it's not productive.
[04:14] <cfhowlett> !behelpful | Natsuki,
[04:14] <Natsuki> ok sorry
[04:14] <farva> I did actually run as sudo, and it gave me no output, also, when I ran as sudo the IP in question was still connected
[04:14] <jishjish> thanks svetlana
[04:14] <bodhi_zazen> eviltwinzzz, no, just fedora and arch experts here , that's why the channel is called #ubuntu =)
[04:14] <eviltwinzzz> does anyone know if it is possible for 'CTB-LOCKER' to infect Ubuntu?
[04:14] <Natsuki> |
[04:14] <Natsuki> @
[04:14] <svetlana> farva: 'no output' means the iptables command worked then -- check the list with 'iptables -L' as root
[04:15] <svetlana> farva: (already established connections may still survive newly added rules, but I personally have no idea to what extent or how to handle them)
[04:15] <farva> there is literally nothing on that list svetlana
[04:15] <svetlana> odd
[04:16] <farva> can we back up just a sec, perhaps configuring ufw would be the way to go? it is my understanding it is more powerful anyway
[04:16] <cfhowlett> farva, I tend to agree
[04:16] <svetlana> you run that command, it gives no output, then you immediately check the list and it's empty?  I run out of brains here. (there also is the #netfilter channel which might give more ideas)
[04:16] <farva> svetlana: http://gyazo.com/9bcea08b4378fbd9ef8d2da0df384968
[04:16] <svetlana> ufw, iirc, still uses iptables as backend
[04:17] <farva> cfhowlett:  in ufw, it shows options to set for default? will this reset all ufw commands to default or...I am very new to linux and really have no idea about 99% of these things
[04:18] <farva> cfhowlett: am I misunderstang this: http://gyazo.com/4a53550f36fbcf4a6b146f8b67e10835
[04:18] <cfhowlett> farva, man ufw is pretty informative and yes you can set defaults.  settings will remain until you change them.
[04:18] <farva> becuase if I re-enable it, it will lock us out of our network entirely
[04:18] <farva> so I need to set it back to its full default settings before I try and config it agin
[04:19] <farva> again*
[04:19] <eviltwinzzz> does anyone know if it is possible for 'CTB-LOCKER' to infect Ubuntu?
[04:20] <UnrealXero> CS1.6 ANYONE?!
[04:20] <cfhowlett> UnrealXero, wwrong channel.
[04:21] <farva> cfhowlett: so I should first run 'ufw reset --force'?
[04:21] <farva> before I enable it
[04:21] <cfhowlett> farva, yes that will reset to ufw defaults
[04:21] <azjo> does anyone know how to make hola work on chromecast?
[04:21] <UnrealXero> sorry, in all seriousness, I do have a serious question
[04:22] <cfhowlett> UnrealXero, ubuntu questions are welcomed
[04:22] <farva> is there a way for me to mute him from my chat here?
[04:22] <UnrealXero> I am currently using the command "free -b | grep -i Mem | awk '{print $2}'
[04:22] <UnrealXero> "
[04:22] <UnrealXero> to give me the total RAM on a device in bytes
[04:22] <eviltwinzzz> does anyone know if it is possible for 'CTB-LOCKER' to infect Ubuntu?
[04:22] <cfhowlett> farva, "him"?  in hexchat, click on the nick and ignore
[04:22] <UnrealXero> I want to take that output and divide it by 4
[04:22] <farva> ty
[04:22] <Natsuki> hola
[04:22] <cfhowlett> UnrealXero, ask in ##bash
[04:23] <Natsuki> english?
[04:23] <UnrealXero> the fact that theres a bash channel makes me a happy camper
[04:23] <UnrealXero> Cheers
[04:23] <cfhowlett> Natsuki, stay on topic or play somewhere else.  being rude and disruptive violates channel guidelines
[04:25] <farva> cfhowlett: so now that I have ufw rest to defaults
[04:25] <cfhowlett> farva, sudo ufw status verbose         will tell you
[04:25] <farva> how do I proceed with setting this up so I can auto drop ips that spam connections or try to mass connect etc
[04:25] <farva> kk
[04:25] <eviltwinzzz> I guess noone has heard of this
[04:26] <cfhowlett> farva, YMMV but I enabled to default deny.
[04:26] <cfhowlett> farva, sorry, but I don't know ufw in sufficient to do what you suggested.  perhaps the #ubuntu-server channel?
[04:27] <farva> sounds good cfhowlett I will check with them
[04:28] <cfhowlett> farva, best of luck
[04:28] <yoda> curious is there no ubuntu kernel source package downloadable thru the software center gui or in any repo that i can apt-get source for the kernel source
[04:28] <eviltwinzzz> can anyone answer my question?
[04:28] <farva> ty =]
[04:28] <cfhowlett> eviltwinzzz, silence was the answer.  in other words: no one has encountered it.
[04:28] <yoda> or by default ubuntu already have the source on it that can be used/modified
[04:28] <cfhowlett> yoda, enable source in your repos and download
[04:30] <Natsuki> I have saved a cat in my refrigerator, this re cold hard cat
[04:30] <farva> cfhowlett: I reset the settings for ufw, enabled it, and it is timing out my console immediatly....I can't log in now =[
[04:30] <cfhowlett> farva, sudo ufw disable
[04:30] <farva> however we are still connected to our server machine apps
[04:31] <mofi> can i replace php with python??
[04:31] <cfhowlett> mofi, yes
[04:31] <farva> I can't connect to the console at all
[04:31] <farva> I can't log in
[04:31] <cfhowlett> farva, alt-ctrl-f6         should kick you to a console
[04:31] <farva> from putty?
[04:31] <cfhowlett> alt-ctrl-f7 will bring you back
[04:32] <cfhowlett> farva, wait, putty?!  I missed that VERY IMPORTANT bit of news
[04:32] <zerowaitstate> LOL
[04:32] <farva> yea lol, I was talking earlier about how it is a server at a datacenter lol
[04:32] <farva> ez to over look I guess hgaha
[04:32] <cfhowlett> farva, OK, ignore me.  go to #ubuntu-server    for expert advice
[04:32] <farva> ticket time!
[04:33] <farva> gotcha, thanks so far for the advice though, I picked up a few new things =]
[04:40] <yoda> ya there is nothing when i do a search for kernel in the repo deb packages or anything even with the sources repo check on
[04:41] <cfhowlett> !kernel | yoda
[04:42] <mutual> yoda what are you trying to do?
[04:42] <yoda> not talking about linux kernel.org  site i am talking about the ubuntu kernel sources and weather there still have .deb package for it in the repo for ubuntu
[04:42] <somsip> yoda: apt-cache search linux- gives loads of results. And ubuntu does not use deb packages directly
[04:42] <yoda> compare the ubuntu kerenl against the kerenl.org linux kerenls
[04:43] <somsip> yoda: easier if you just explain what the issue is for you
[04:43] <yoda> the same thing that you can do with apt-get should be viewable in software gui center but i will try that to
[04:45] <svetlana> evilnickveitch: erm. no. ctb-locker doesn't look like  a linux thing.
[04:46] <joltman> i've got 14.04x64 and a Lenovo T440s.  I want to install the latest kernel, but there are warnings on the ubuntu kernel site saying that I need an "image" file
[04:46] <joltman> what does that means?
[04:47] <cfhowlett> joltman, paste the error
[04:47] <joltman> there is no error, i'm just trying to figure out which kernel i should use
[04:50] <joltman> i'm looking for somethign in the 3.17 or .18 kernel
[04:50] <joltman> they all appear to be labeled for vivid
[04:50] <joltman> and i've got trusty
[04:51] <cfhowlett> joltman, is there something wrong with your default kernel?
[04:51] <joltman> it doesn't have the correct drivers for DisplayPort1.2 as well as it lacks the latest updates for my Synaptics mouse pad
[04:51] <joltman> (touchpad)
[04:53] <somsip> joltman: some other fixes for the rouchpad not requiring a new kernel may be useful http://stephen.rees-carter.net/geek/thinkpad-t440s-ubuntu
[04:53] <somsip> *touchpad
[04:53] <joltman> i'll check it out
[04:54] <joltman> but regardless, i do want to use DP 1.2 (as my monitors are set to daisy-chain DP)
[04:54] <joltman> Dell U2414H displayport daisy chaining
[04:56] <somsip> joltman: the only references I find for that are that a new kernel and video driver are required.
[05:00] <joltman> I think this updated driver works better
[05:00] <joltman> but, still need the DP driver
[05:03] <joltman> so do i only need to download the 3.18 deb files?
[05:03] <joltman> http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.18-vivid/
[05:03] <joltman> or, because it's for vivid, will it just jack up my ubuntu 14.04?
[05:04] <somsip> !mainline | joltman (but I know nothing else about this)
[05:06] <joltman> ok, i guess i'll give this a try
[05:10] <joltman> ok, rebooting.
[05:12] <joltman> well, i'm on 3.18
[05:12] <joltman> now to install the latest xorg intel crap
[05:12] <FireSpill> hi
[05:13] <fernando__> hola
[05:15] <JCM83> My audio just failed completely. Services brings up pulseaudio as negative. When I try >service pulseaudio start, it returns start: Unknown job: pulseaudio
[05:15] <jishjish> hi all, what tools does ubuntu 14.10 have installed so that when I plug my nexus 5 in it shows up as a device with internal storage? (I need to place some files on my device) and I am curious what package enables this.
[05:17] <JCM83> jishjish I think you just need to mount the new drive.
[05:17] <JCM83> Which should be doable through the command line or through nautilus.
[05:22] <jishjish> thanks JCM83 I was able to mount it with pcmanfs and  go-mtpfs-git
[05:23] <JCM83> badass hi 5
[05:23] <JCM83> I'm still trying to restart my audio process or whatever.
[05:25] <dannymichel> I'm stopping X to install nvidia driver with sudo service lighted stop but when i run the .run file it still says i appear to be running V
[05:26] <dannymichel> i mean running X*
[05:28] <usr0> dannymichel: try CTRL+ALT+F1, then login and then "sudo service lightdm stop"
[05:28] <dannymichel> thats what i did usr0
[05:31] <Ben64> dannymichel: you shouldn't install nvidia drivers that method
[05:32] <dannymichel> how should i Ben64 ? sudo apt-get install nvidia-current ?
[05:32] <dannymichel> i have a gtx 960 and am having issues Ben64
[05:33] <Ben64> dannymichel: well it depends what card you have
[05:33] <dannymichel> I'm following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2263316 Ben64
[05:34] <Ben64> i'd suggest using this ppa https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[05:36] <dannymichel> use that ppa somehow then do sudo apt-get install nvidia-current ? Ben64 ?
[05:36] <JCM83> Ben64: My audio just failed completely. Services brings up pulseaudio as negative. When I try >service pulseaudio start, it returns start: Unknown job: pulseaudio
[05:37] <Ben64> dannymichel: the link i gave you shows how to add it, there are multiple nvidia versions to choose from
[05:39] <dannymichel> ok cool
[05:39] <dannymichel> thanks
[05:39] <dannymichel> one last thing. i see you have to add the number for which OS you want to be default in default/grub, but i don't have a numbered list to go by anywhere
[05:40] <dannymichel> i did grub-update and counted down, and it seems its 10th down so i did 10 but doesn't work
[05:41] <jozefk> where do I place the command which I want to have executed every time before system goes off?
[05:42] <Ben64> dannymichel: what i do, is modify it to boot the last OS I booted
[05:43] <footer> Hi when I do hcitool scan I see "Device is not available"
[05:43] <footer> :No such device
[05:44] <footer> how do I get my bluetooth headset working
[05:44] <footer> hciconfig -a outputs nothing as well
[05:44] <Ben64> footer: what is the output of "hcitool dev"
[05:44] <footer> Ben64: devices: that's it
[05:44] <footer> nothing in devices
[05:44] <Ben64> then you need a device]
[05:45] <footer> Ben64: but I already have the bluetooth in my laptop
[05:45] <dannymichel> yeah installing with the PPA gave me black screen again Ben64
[05:45] <Ben64> footer: it may need to be turned on physically, or you might not have the driver required
[05:45] <Ben64> dannymichel: which one did you install
[05:45] <footer> Ben64: okay, so how do I get it working
[05:46] <dannymichel> nvidia-current nvidia-settings
[05:46] <footer> I don't have button for it but it's supposed to be turned on by pressing led button sort of
[05:46] <Ben64> footer: pastebin the output of "lspci;lsusb"
[05:46] <Ben64> dannymichel: you didn't see the part where i told you it had different versions?
[05:46] <thomad16> hello
[05:46] <dannymichel> i don't see where there are different versions Ben64
[05:47] <Ben64> dannymichel: on the link i gave you, i only gave you the one link. did you read it at all?
[05:47] <footer> Ben64: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/505de8ae5125b73831dd
[05:47] <dannymichel> yes i did
[05:48] <Ben64> footer: i'm not seeing any bluetooth devices there
[05:49] <footer> Ben64: strange I have used it before in windows
[05:51] <Ben64> footer: you might need to enable it using the button in windows first
[05:51] <dmarr> trying to figure out why a rsync would start off quick (30MB/s) and taper off on a direct filesystem copy (external to external)
[05:51] <Ben64> dmarr: caching
[05:52] <footer> Ben64: http://demo.idg.com.au/pcw/dellvostro3700shortcutbuttons.jpg
[05:52] <dmarr> it also ends up just dying eventually after an hour or so
[05:52] <dmarr> can i run a health check on an ext4 fs?
[05:52] <footer> Ben64: the third button on top is for bluetooth near that wifi led
[05:52] <Ben64> dmarr: well that's not good. anything in dmesg, like IO errors or anything?
[05:52] <Ben64> footer: ok
[05:53] <Ben64> dmarr: fsck would check the filesystem, smartctl can check the smart data, which isn't super reliable
[05:54] <dmarr> Ben64: hmm dmesg is showing me: usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci
[05:56] <thomad16__> So a strange thing happened and after rebooting 5 times it fixed itself somehow. The standard themes broke the font used by the terminal and default icons used by some applications however the issue randomly stops and starts on reboot any ideas
[05:57] <footer> Ben64: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/943f2e803af6596e5d2e
[05:59] <Ben64> footer: ok, what is the output of "rfkill list"
[05:59] <bojan> i have more images on my boot partition how to identify the working images only and how to remove that
[06:00] <footer> 0: phy0: Wireless LAN 	Soft blocked: no 	Hard blocked: no
[06:00] <footer> Ben64: ^
[06:00] <bojan> means how to remove the corrupted images
[06:00] <thomad16__> ben64: are you having issues with your bluetooth device?
[06:00] <Ben64> thomad16__: nope
[06:00] <Ben64> footer: still looks like you don't have a bluetooth device
[06:00] <bojan> #ubuntu-touch
[06:01] <footer> Ben64: hmm
[06:01] <thomad16__> oh sorry its footer
[06:01] <footer> thomad16__: yep
[06:03] <thomad16__> footer: I had a similar issue this morning i went into /etc/bluetooth/main.conf and set RememberPowerd to false. Also you may want to try `sudo apt-get install --reinstall bluez`
[06:03] <footer> okay let me see
[06:05] <footer> thomad16__: do I need a re-boot?
[06:05] <dannymichel> it looks like X server keeps restarting when i kill it in cntrl alt f1. how do i kill it it keep it dead
[06:05] <footer> thomad16__: still I don't see it in lsusb
[06:05] <thomad16__> Yes you will need to reboot.
[06:05] <footer> okay brb
[06:08] <footer> thomad16__: still no luch
[06:08] <footer> *luck
[06:08] <footer> don't see in the in lsusb
[06:09] <Ben64> did you try my suggestion
[06:09] <dannymichel> Ben64 how do i find out the version to install foe nvidia card and?
[06:09] <dannymichel> i don't see versions on that link you gave me
[06:09] <dannymichel> i installed the papa and now i don't know what nvidia-something to install Ben64
[06:10] <footer> Ben64: going to windows and start the bluetooth?
[06:10] <footer> Ben64: nope, let me try
[06:10] <Ben64> dannymichel: are you serious? you don't see  nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 nvidia-graphics-drivers-331  nvidia-graphics-drivers-340  nvidia-graphics-drivers-346 ??
[06:10] <dannymichel> nowhere on that page Ben64
[06:10] <Ben64> its there
[06:10] <dannymichel> maybe you thought you gave me a different link Ben64 ?
[06:10] <Ben64> nope i gave you the right one, it does require scrolling down though
[06:12] <dannymichel> how do i know which one is right for me Ben64 ?
[06:12] <dannymichel> nvidia-graphics-drivers-346 Ben64 ?
[06:12] <Ben64> dannymichel: you probably want 346
[06:12] <dannymichel> just sudo apt-get install nvidia-graphics-drivers-346 and I'm done?
[06:12] <Ben64> possibly, might need to install other stuff too
[06:12] <dannymichel> no sudo apt-get install nvidia-graphics-drivers-346 nvidia-settings or anything resembling nvidia-org or xorg-conf
[06:13] <Ben64> it should pull in what it needs
[06:13] <dannymichel> ok
[06:13] <dannymichel> gonna try again
[06:18] <dannymichel> its not finding it when i try it Ben64 . i added the PPA.
[06:18] <dannymichel> any way to get a list like sudo apt-get list nvidia?
[06:19] <Ben64> dannymichel: how did you add the ppa
[06:19] <OerHeks> dannymichel, after adding a ppa, did you run: sudo apt-get update ?
[06:19] <dannymichel> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
[06:19] <OerHeks> after that, you would have a new list with that drivers
[06:19] <dannymichel> sudo apt-get update
[06:20] <dannymichel> ok it worked when i did nvidia-347
[06:20] <dannymichel> 346
[06:22] <DaveQB> Trying to apt-get upgrade a 14.04 systems kernel, I am seeing all 3.13 and 3.16 kernels are missing the /lib/modules/<kernel>/kernel/fs/ext2/ext2.ko module and thus make a initramfs that can't boot.
[06:22] <DaveQB> Does anyone know about this?
[06:24] <Ben64> DaveQB: what are you trying to accomplish
[06:25] <DaveQB> Ben64: Upgrade from what looks like a no longer support kernel 3.2.0-29 to a 3.13.* or 3.16.* kernel
[06:25] <DaveQB> Ben64: The main reason was the 3.2 kernel it is on doesn't have any linux-headers packages, so can't install anything that needs to make a module, eg nvidia driver
[06:26] <Ben64> DaveQB: 14.04 comes with a 3.13 kernel
[06:26] <dannyalt> ok so Ben42 thanks for that help. all works now. How were you saying to get grub to boot to the last listed again?
[06:26] <DaveQB> Ben64: This system has been upgraded fom 9.10 or so. So I am on the 13.10 kernel or so.
[06:26] <Ben64> dannyalt: http://askubuntu.com/questions/148662/how-to-get-grub2-to-remember-last-choice
[06:26] <Ben64> DaveQB: you started off saying 14.04, if you were on 14.04 you'd already have 3.13
[06:27] <DaveQB> Ben64: Anyway, the issue is the ext2.ko module doesn't exist in the linux-image package (I have even unpacked it to check). I am trying to avoid making my own kernel (it's been a few years).
[06:27] <DaveQB> Ben64: Yes, it is on 14.04
[06:28] <DaveQB> Ben64: kernel 3.13 won't boot, it can't find the disk as the initramfs doesn't have the ext2 module to read the disk.
[06:28] <Ben64> you're not really getting to the main issue
[06:28] <DaveQB> Ben64: listing modules at the initramfs prompt doesn't list the ext2 module.
[06:28] <Ben64> somehow you're on a 3.2 kernel on 14.04, which shouldn't be possible
[06:28] <DaveQB> Ben64: The grub conf does try to load it though
[06:28] <bulletpete> hi guys how do i install superbeam in my ubuntu desktop
[06:28] <Ben64> DaveQB: you need to explain what exactly is going on or i can't help
[06:29] <DaveQB> Ben64: Yes, so trying to get onto the Trusty-generic kernel
[06:29] <Ben64> DaveQB: why aren't you already?
[06:29] <DaveQB> Ben64: All the 3.13 and 3.16 kernels won't boot. ext2 module is missing fro mthe initramfs
[06:30] <DaveQB> Ben64: I can't recall how it happened exactly, it was upgraded to 14.04 about 6 months ago.
[06:30] <DaveQB> Ben64: Running the 3.2.0-29 kernel hasn't been a problem, but I have been wanting to solve this. It is my in-laws computer
[06:30] <Ben64> running an outdated kernel is very much a problem
[06:31] <DaveQB> Ben64:  Yes
[06:31] <DaveQB> Ben64: But it has limped along and it being used as we speak
[06:32] <DaveQB> Ben64: The system was installed about 5-7 years ago and has been upgraded over the versions.
[06:32] <Ben64> pastebin the outputs of these commands "lsb_release -a" "uname -a" "cat /etc/issue" "dpkg -l | grep linux" "sudo apt-get update"
[06:32] <Ben64> upgrading doesn't keep a kernel from 3 years ago running
[06:37] <DaveQB> Ben64: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10169280 no 3.13 or 3.16 kernel listed as I think I purged them
[06:40] <rypervenche> What is the ubottu command to find out more information about a package and what version is on a specific version of Ubuntu?
[06:40] <steven_ste> !info
[06:40] <Ben64> rypervenche: pm ubottu if you're just doing it for yourself
[06:41] <rypervenche> Thanks. Don't worry, I have been.
[06:50] <zoyer> Hola
[06:55] <xtalmath> sudo apt-get source es2gears does not work? which package do I need to get eglut.h?
[06:56] <OerHeks> !find es2gears
[06:57] <OerHeks> xtalmath, it is part of mesa-demos 8.1.0-2 >> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+package/mesa-utils-extra
[06:57] <OerHeks> for trusty that is.
[06:58] <xtalmath> so if I want to recompile es2gears, how should I proceed? with apt-get source mesa-utils-extra?
[06:59] <OerHeks> xtalmath, i think so yes, but why build it yourself?
[07:00] <xtalmath> I want to develop a few egl / gles examples, and would like to see a working compilable example (I can find es2gears code on google, but it requires eglut.h, which is nowhere to be found?)
[07:01] <xtalmath> oh there it is!
[07:01] <xtalmath> is there a -dev package I am supposed to select to get eglut header without having to download es2gears source?
[07:02] <OerHeks> !find eglut.h
[07:03] <xtalmath> ubottu says no?
[07:04] <xtalmath> OerHeks: is it intentional to leave out eglut ? I'd expected lib-mesa-dev or smth to contain it
[07:04] <GuestR> is there a master list of phones compatible with ubuntu/touch ?
[07:05] <OerHeks> xtalmath, i tried to find it, but i am stuck.
[07:05] <Marcoklunder> hi
[07:05] <Marcoklunder> ow
[07:06] <Marcoklunder> :)
[07:06] <Stanley00> GuestR: no, but there's a list of ported/porting phones here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices
[07:06] <OerHeks> !phone
[07:07] <Marcoklunder> d
[07:18] <impromptu> I cannot share a folder using ubuntu with another ubuntu machine
[07:18] <impromptu> it says Permission denied
[07:21] <DaveQB> Does anyone know if 14.04 is using an initramfs? If so, how it is accessing ext4 root partitions when ext2 support looks to be moved from a module to compiled into the kernel.
[07:23] <nu600> I need to change my Ubuntu 32bit server to 64bit.I have two servers,both server in two location and need to install Ubuntu 64bit using SSH.I'm longing into Linux server and then longing to Ubuntu 34bit server I need to now install Ubuntu 64bit to second server (Ubuntu 32bit server). Is this is possible? If it is possible what are the step to do this?
[07:24] <DaveQB> nu600: You need console access to do that easily.
[07:25] <nu600> yes i have console access
[07:25] <DaveQB> nu600: Only other way is if you have a spare partition to setup, but lot of manual steps and one mistake....
[07:25] <DaveQB> nu600: Oh, well load the 64bit iso into the virtual DVD drive and install away
[07:26] <hateball> nu600: you cant change architecture over ssh, you need to re-install. in case that was not clear as per above
[07:27] <nu600> i have a problem when Ubuntu 32bit deleted what happens to the virtual DVD?
[07:27] <DaveQB> hateball: If he had a spare partition he could using a chroot and laying out the files manually.
[07:27] <DaveQB> hateball: Be like a stage 1 gentoo install
[07:28] <DaveQB> hateball:  minus the great documentation :)
[07:28] <kali__> hola
[07:29] <kali__> :)
[07:30] <DaveQB> nu600: Are you dealing with a virtual server or a container server, like OPenVZ?
[07:31] <kali__> no
[07:34] <kali__> hola alguien que use backbox?
[07:34] <Restart_pro> Anyone knows a way to generate a truth table ... there are 8 bits of input and need 5 bit results from it
[07:35] <kali__> table  piryt  usa el power de la gpu :)
[07:38] <kali__> hola -.-
[07:40] <footer> Hi Ben64
[07:40] <footer> I got the bluetooth detected with lsusb
[07:41] <footer> Ben64: now when I do hcitool scan I don't see my headset though
[07:43] <kali__> help open .locky ????
[07:45] <kryptonradon> I made a new partition for swap how do I get udev to make it's device file?
[07:51] <rocketeer> Are there any feature wishlists for ubuntu?
[07:51] <rocketeer> I have a few things that I think would be cool to add
[07:52] <rocketeer> convergence seems like it would work better if it behaved differently based on configuration
[07:52] <rocketeer> Like if a screen was below a certain size, global menus, othersiwe, a menu a window
[07:53] <nu600> DaveQB: I'm dealing with a container server
[07:53] <DaveQB> nu600: And you can't just wipe it out/reinstall the OS?
[07:54] <nu600> i'm not near the server and i'm login in remotly
[07:55] <Ben64> you can't go from 32 to 64 bit except by reinstalling
[07:55] <DaveQB> nu600: How did you first install this OS on this server? There should be a web interface that allows you to reinstall.
[07:55] <DaveQB> nu600: Backup any important files to your other server (this should already be happening in an automated way) and reinstall
[07:58] <tonny> Hi, i recently got "could not resolve http://...." error when im using sudo apt-get update command, Ubuntu 14.10, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10170021/  it used to work fine just a few days ago
[07:59] <glick> hi whats the name of the German off topic ubuntu channel?
[07:59] <nu600> DaveQB: only we have console login
[07:59] <DaveQB> tonny: Can you resolve other domains?
[08:00] <MatthewsFace> tonny: looks like a DNS issue
[08:00] <DaveQB> nu600: Then you're up the creek, unless you want to do a chroot install
[08:00] <DaveQB> nu600:  And have a spare partition...
[08:00] <tonny> DaveQB, may i know how to test it
[08:00] <MatthewsFace> tonny: dig, nslookup etc
[08:01] <nu600> nu600: yes i have
[08:01] <tonny> MatthewsFace, ok thanks ill check
[08:01] <DaveQB> tonny:  or host command
[08:01] <nu600> DaveQB: yes, i have
[08:02] <DaveQB> nu600: Then you can try something like this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot
[08:02] <DaveQB> nu600: But then make sure you have a kernel, bootloader and fstab all setup on top of that article. Check the gentoo docs for an idea. It will be a hard task.
[08:03] <nu600> ok
[08:03] <DaveQB> nu600: Set a fail timeout value for grub, so if you install fails to boot it will reboot into a known good kernel.
[08:03] <DaveQB> nu600: Actually, how do you have a spare partition if you have a container type VM?
[08:04] <tonny> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10170084/ is this the problem?
[08:04] <glick> is there a german offtopic ubuntu channel?
[08:04] <glick> i want to talk about Emmanual Kant
[08:04] <tonny> DaveQB, MatthewsFace please see ^
[08:04] <impromptu> who is using local network share option from nautilus here ?
[08:04] <MatthewsFace> remove the http headers
[08:05]  * marinade- slaps her pussy for FREEDOM!  CHOLBY RULES!
[08:06]  * marinade- slaps her pussy for FREEDOM!  CHOLBY RULES!
[08:06]  * marinade- slaps her pussy for FREEDOM!  CHOLBY RULES!
[08:06] <tonny> MatthewsFace, again servfail with using "host ir.archive.ubuntu.com" and "dig ir.archive.ubuntu.com"
[08:07] <MatthewsFace> ndlookup?
[08:07] <MatthewsFace> nslookup?
[08:07] <MatthewsFace> I have no issues resolving that hostname
[08:07] <MatthewsFace> DNS settings?
[08:14] <tonny> MatthewsFace, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10170148/
[08:14] <DaveQB> tonny:  What does cat /etc/resolv.conf give us?
[08:14] <DaveQB> tonny:  Oh I see from your paste
[08:14] <tonny> DaveQB, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10170148/
[08:15] <tonny> DaveQB, :), should it be 8.8.8.8?
[08:15] <DaveQB> tonny:  just to make sure your network is ok, try using a diff DNS server. "dig google.com @4.2.2.1"
[08:15] <tonny> DaveQB, sorry im very new, but i know i didnt change anything
[08:15] <tonny> DaveQB, right away
[08:15] <DaveQB> tonny:  That's ok. Seems like this 192.168.1.1 server is not cooperating
[08:16] <DaveQB> tonny:  Is that your router?
[08:16] <tonny> DaveQB, yes, home  use
[08:16] <DaveQB> tonny:  Is ok to give it a kick?
[08:16] <DaveQB> tonny:  Seems like it playing silly buggers with us
, "dig google.com @4.2.2.1"   >   http://paste.ubuntu.com/10170193/
, like the sound of kicking it
[08:17] <DaveQB> tonny:  Yeah right, you can look up ok. The problem is with your router.
, but how ma i do it ?
[08:17] <DaveQB> tonny:  need to fix that.
[08:17] <DaveQB> tonny:  Reboot it
, reset all, oh ok
, thanks, ill come back
[08:18] <nu600> DaveQB: i'm sorry,i don't know what is container type VM,Is it a VM or else
[08:20] <nu600> DaveQB: I'm sorry i don't know what is container type VM.Is it a VM or else?
[08:20] <DaveQB> nu600:  Not a full virtual machine, but a container, like OpenVZ or docker.
[08:20] <DaveQB> nu600: What company is hosting your server in question?
[08:22] <nu600> DaveQB: those severs are not hosting by any company
[08:23] <Ben64> nu600: then walk over to it, pop in a 64bit ubuntu dvd and install it?
[08:25] <nu600> DaveQB: i don't have more hosting details about those servers
[08:26] <DaveQB> nu600: Where are they?
[08:26] <ikonia> trying to do an install with no inforamtion is unwise
[08:28] <nu600> DaveQB:  i don't have no idea,but i can tell you one thing i'm not near those servers
[08:28] <nu600> :P
[08:30] <nu600> thanx for your time DaveQB.i will try using DebootstrapChroot
[08:31] <footer> Hi anybody uses hcitool?

[08:35] <DaveQB> nu600:  No worries
[08:42] <kietdlam> hi, how can I downgrade my Ubuntu 14.04 kernel from 3.13 to 2.6?
[08:43] <DaveQB> kietdlam: I don't think 2.6 is available in the repo, so you will have to add a repo that would include it
[08:43] <DaveQB> kietdlam: Then apt-get install it
[08:43] <kietdlam> DaveQB: how do I do that? Which repo has 2.6 kernel for Ubuntu 14.04?
[08:44] <DaveQB> kietdlam: No idea which repo. A PPA maybe?
[08:44] <kietdlam> DaveQB: I googled but I can't find a repo that has linux kernel 2.6 for Ubuntu 14.04
[08:44] <Ben64> 2.6 is way way outdated and not supported and a terrible idea. don't do it
[08:44] <kietdlam> DaveQB: I didn't find any PPA either w/ google
[08:45] <kietdlam> Ben64: I need it because I need to use Softing can-ac2-pci adapter, which apparently only supports 2.6x kernel
[08:45] <Ben64> very unlikely
[08:45] <kietdlam> Ben64: ?
[08:45] <Ben64> i seriously doubt something "only supports 2.6" and doesn't support higher
[08:46] <kietdlam> Ben64: I get this error: #error "This kernel is too recent: not supported by this file" when I try to compile their driver
[08:46] <Ben64> tell them to fix their script then
[08:47] <Guest56559> Hey I've been using a java app, and after closing it, my computer is now laggy.
[08:47] <kietdlam> Ben64: do you have any experience with Softing CAN-AC2-PCI interface? Do you think there is any way to do it?
[08:47] <kietdlam> Ben64: uhh I don't think that's an option, our lab needs to connect to the CAN bus to test our cars
[08:47] <Ben64> kietdlam: you'd be best to contact the manufacturer
[08:48] <kietdlam> Ben64: is there anyway to downgrade the kernel to 2.6 for Ubuntu 14.04?
[08:48] <DaveQB> kietdlam: Got a 12.04 DVD handy? That might be your solution.
[08:48] <Ben64> kietdlam: nope
[08:48] <DaveQB> kietdlam: alternatively, get it from kernel.org
[08:48] <Ben64> bad idea
[08:48] <kietdlam> DaveQB: compile it manually?
[08:48] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  it = kernel 2.6
[08:48] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  yes
[08:48] <Ben64> very bad idea
[08:48] <kietdlam> DaveQB: what risks am I taking compiling it manually?
[08:48] <kietdlam> DaveQB: if I just leave everything default
[08:48] <Ben64> likely to break many things in ubuntu by doing that
[08:49] <DaveQB> kietdlam: Risk spending a lot of time.
[08:49] <kietdlam> Ben64: what things will break?
[08:49] <DaveQB> kietdlam: Make sure you have a working kernel, so when boots fail you can boot back into it.
[08:49] <kietdlam> our lab can't wait for manufacturer to respond -_-
[08:49] <DaveQB> Ben64:  rubbish, it just takes some work.
[08:49] <Ben64> DaveQB: its a terrible idea
[08:49] <Guest56559> nvm
[08:49] <DaveQB> Ben64: We built a custom kernel to render Happy Feet 2 faster
[08:49] <kietdlam> DaveQB: do you know anything that will break with a downgraded kernel?
[08:49] <Guest56559> just restarted compiz
[08:49] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  Booting. Hence why have a known good kernel
[08:50] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  Grab the config from a running kernel on ubuntu and work from that
[08:50] <Ben64> kietdlam: you're going to create so many more problems by solving this one by that method
[08:50] <kietdlam> Ben64: what do you suggest I do?
[08:50] <Ben64> work on the problem you actually have, instead of making more
[08:50] <kietdlam> DaveQB: what do you mean by grab the config from a running kernel on ubuntu?
[08:50] <DaveQB> kietdlam: You just need a box to do this one job (work with this hardware)?
[08:50] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  look in /proc/config (from memory)
[08:51] <kietdlam> Ben64: uh but my problem is I can't install the CAN-AC2-PCI interface driver
[08:51] <Ben64> right, so work on that problem
[08:51] <kietdlam> DaveQB: Uh this box is running ROS and doing MPC work on Julia also
[08:51] <Ben64> kietdlam: you're on mint?
[08:51] <kietdlam> Ben64: Uh I can't work on it because the driver doesn't support 3.x kernel?
[08:51] <kietdlam> Ben64: no, Ubuntu 14.04
[08:51] <Ben64> you said Julia
[08:52] <DaveQB> kietdlam: Time for a dedicated machine I think
[08:52] <kietdlam> Ben64: I meant this Julia http://julialang.org/
[08:52] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  /boot/config-<kernel name> is where the config is in ubuntu
[08:52] <Ben64> kietdlam: where is the driver
[08:53] <kietdlam> Ben64: http://automotive.softing.com/en/products/communication-interfaces-can.html
[08:54] <kietdlam> DaveQB: would downgrading Ubuntu to a previous version that uses 2.6 kernel be less of a risk?
[08:54] <Ben64> no
[08:54] <DaveQB> kietdlam: I think so. If you have the install media handy
[08:54] <Ben64> DaveQB: can you stop giving horrible advice
[08:54] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  Would be a faster method than building a custom kernel
[08:54] <kietdlam> DaveQB: problem is I am ssh'ed into the machine through an SSH tunnel
[08:55] <kietdlam> Ben64: what do you suggest I do?
[08:55] <DaveQB> kietdlam: Right. So you can't install an OS easily over ssh
[08:55] <Ben64> i've told you many times, i'm pretty close to giving up
[08:55] <DaveQB> kietdlam: Is giving up an option? I am suspecting it is not
[08:55] <kietdlam> I have autossh attempt to reconnect the tunnel in /etc/rc.local, would that be enough?
[08:55] <kietdlam> DaveQB: uh not really
[08:55] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  Sorry? Where?
[08:56] <svetlana`> i don't think the advice (which was mentioned many times) contained a "give up" thought. it contained something useful. it is just that repeating it over and over is a tiring activity and he is about to stop repeating it.
[08:56] <kietdlam> DaveQB: /etc/rc.local, doesn't it get executed whenever the machine boots up?
[08:56] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  There is always a way, part of being a Linux engineer is being creative to find a solution
[08:56] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  Yes
[08:56] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  As root
[08:56] <Ben64> DaveQB: being creative got you in here with a broken ubuntu system, on 14.04 with a super outdated kernel. i wouldn't follow any advice you're handing out
[08:56] <kietdlam> yes, so shouldn't autossh reconstruct the SSH tunnel if I have the command in /etc/rc.local?
[08:57] <svetlana`> autossh is a bit evil i recall. it does not restore the current working directory.
[08:57] <DaveQB> Ben64: I wasn't being creative, but not related to that problem.
[08:57] <kietdlam> Ben64: what do you suggest I should do?
[08:57] <Ben64> for like the 10th time, focus on the actual problem
[08:57] <aeon-ltd> partially offtopic, i think people would prefer elegant solutions rather than creative(most of the time hack-ey) fixes
[08:57] <kietdlam> svetlana`: I'm not sure what you're saying, it does not restore the current working directory?
[08:58] <DaveQB> Ben64: How many years experience in the Linux industry do you have?
[08:58] <cfhowlett> DaveQB, we're not here to compare CV's ...
[08:58] <kietdlam> Ben64: the problem is the driver doesn't support 3.x kernel, what do you suggest I do?
[08:58] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  And yes, it should recreate that tunnel, but it will run as root though, so be careful with that.
[08:58] <Ben64> kietdlam: can you give a link to the driver
[08:58] <kietdlam> DaveQB: that's fine for me
[08:59] <kietdlam> Ben64: http://donsohamn.se/wp-includes/softing-can-ac2-pci-driver-download.php
[08:59] <DaveQB> kietdlam: You can launch it as another user too. It = command.
[08:59] <DaveQB> kietdlam: But how does this relate to your issue?
[08:59] <kietdlam> DaveQB: it's not, you were asking me why autossh /etc/rc.local
[08:59] <kietdlam> *autossh in /etc/rc.local
[09:00] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  Looks like 12.04 has the 2.6 kernel > http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/
[09:00] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  Did I?
[09:00] <svetlana`> kietdlam: i apologize, i think i was referring to an entirely different program (or at least an entirely different use-case).
[09:01] <kietdlam> DaveQB: maybe I misunderstood your question, sorry
[09:01] <Ben64> kietdlam: how about this http://industrial.softing.com/uploads/softing_downloads/CAN-AC-PCIV5.18.tar.gz
[09:01] <kietdlam> DaveQB: so I can safely downgrade to Ubuntu 12.04?
[09:01] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  I wouldn't "downgrade" but rather setup another box for this purpose if you can't get it running on 14.04
[09:02] <DaveQB> kietdlam:  Downgrading would bring a world of hurt
[09:02] <svetlana`> thank you DaveQB.
[09:02] <DaveQB> svetlana`: No worries. But what did I do? lol
[09:02] <dns53> kietdlam can you install an older vm in ubuntu and route the hardware to the vm?
[09:02] <kietdlam> DaveQB: uh our lab doesn't have a budget for another
[09:02] <DaveQB> dns53: Good idea
[09:02] <kietdlam> at least not at the moment
[09:02] <svetlana`> DaveQB: i am watching you answer a question. it is helping me to learn some new things.
[09:03] <svetlana`> some learn, and some re-learn.
[09:03] <DaveQB> svetlana`: Oh ok. Cool. Always like to help
[09:03] <dns53> i would buy a new hard disk (or create a new partition if you have space) and install an older version of linux that works
[09:03] <Ben64> kietdlam: did you get the link
[09:03] <kietdlam> Ben64: yes
[09:03] <DaveQB> svetlana`: Yes, it annoys me when I learn something I forgot I knew years before haha
[09:03] <svetlana`> i like to do that though i think.
[09:04] <kietdlam> Ben64: same problem
[09:04] <Ben64> those drivers are for 3.x
[09:04] <kietdlam> Ben64: where did you see that? in the readme?
[09:05] <Ben64> from their website
[09:05] <DaveQB> Ben64: A kernel 3.x version for his driver? Good find
[09:05] <kietdlam> Ben64: can you send me the specific URL?
[09:05] <kietdlam> Ben64: that would help out a lot
[09:05] <Ben64> its a dumb url, dumb site, dumb drivers
[09:06] <kietdlam> Ben64: ?
[09:06] <Ben64> you could probably install 12.04 and have those drivers work though, thats what it says on the page
[09:06] <kietdlam> Ben64: what page?
[09:06] <Ben64> apparently they target a very narrow range of kernels
[09:06] <Ben64> which is dumb, because kernel stuff really doesn't break often
[09:06] <kietdlam> Ben64: can you send me the URL of the page you're referring ot?
[09:07] <Ben64> can't, its specific to my computer
[09:07] <Ben64> had to fill out a form to get to it
[09:08] <kietdlam> Ben64: oh I see what you're referring to
[09:08] <jozefk> I placed this file: http://pastie.org/9938869 in /etc/init.d/ and created the links with update-rc.d but nothing happens on reboot. Why?
[09:09] <Ben64> kietdlam: 12.04 still has 2 more years of support, and a 3.2 kernel, should work
[09:10] <Ben64> or you can contact the manufacturer, or both
[09:10] <kietdlam> Ben64: so if I downgrade, I should theoretically be able to install it based on their info?
[09:10] <Ben64> yep
[09:10] <Ben64> well, not downgrade though
[09:10] <cragdor> Hi All, I have a reproducable issue with LightDM where is the best place to talk about it
[09:10] <dns53> jozefk space between #! and /bin/sh ?
[09:11] <cragdor> Does the LightDM team have their own IRC channel?
[09:11] <jozefk> dns53, there is a space yes. Or it should be without space?
[09:12] <dns53> jozefk there should not be a space i think
[09:14] <svetlana`> cragdor: no, only their own mailing list, from what I can see. ( http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/LightDM/#questions )
[09:15] <cragdor> Thanks svetlana`
[09:15] <svetlana`> welcome
[09:15] <impromptu> does anyone know to fix restart samba ?
[09:15] <svetlana`> maybe someone does. what is the problem exactly?
[09:16] <impromptu> svetlana`, 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. The connection was refused. Maybe smbd is not running.
[09:16] <kietdlam> is it possible to downgrade Ubuntu 14.04 to Ubuntu 12.04 through an SSH tunnel?
[09:16] <impromptu> I am trying to share a Public Folder on my laptop with all the users on the network
[09:16] <jozefk> dns53, I think there should be a space :)
[09:16] <Ben64> kietdlam: not at all
[09:16] <svetlana`> impromptu: why are you trying to do "net usershare", what is it supposed to do?
[09:17] <impromptu> svetlana, I am trying share a local folder in the networking
[09:17] <impromptu> svetlana`, http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2015/02/share-a-folder-in-ubuntu-14-04/
[09:17] <svetlana`> impromptu: presumably you would right-click it and share from there?
[09:17] <impromptu> ya
[09:17] <impromptu> it is giving me this error
[09:17] <svetlana`> impromptu: ok, give me a few minutes.
[09:17] <impromptu> :)
[09:18] <svetlana`> impromptu: do you want client machines to access this share with a username and a password, or should I skip reading that step?
[09:19] <impromptu> svetlana`, no pass/authentication at all, it would direct access if they are in the network
[09:19] <Guest960> hello i dont know how to connect to a webdav service
[09:19] <Guest960> http://pastebin.com/ALXHnFZS
[09:20] <Guest960> this example is in spanish but very short and easy to understand... in 14.04 i cant do it
[09:20] <Guest960> i need to download files from my university...
[09:21] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: what part can't you do?
[09:22] <svetlana`> impromptu: okay, thank you. type «sudo service smbd start» in Terminal and try sharing the directory again.
[09:22] <impromptu> svetlana`, I tried all those
[09:22] <impromptu> stop/start
[09:22] <impromptu> but stop gives me stop: Unknown instance:
[09:22] <svetlana`> impromptu: okay. let me see.
[09:23] <impromptu> start does says smbd start/running, process xxxx
[09:23] <impromptu> but when you check the status
[09:23] <dubbear> Can ou run ubuntu on a macbook air
[09:23] <dubbear> ?
[09:23] <impromptu> smbd stop/waiting
[09:23] <impromptu> dubbear, just dont' do it, return it or sell it and buy a Asus
[09:24] <dubbear> which Asus?
[09:25] <dubbear> impromptu:  which Asus?
[09:25] <svetlana`> impromptu: okay, thanks, I'll find how to check smbd status in a few.
[09:25] <Guest960> aeon-ltd i cant do anything...
[09:26] <swiezapietrucha> hello!!
[09:26] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: well are you on gnome?
[09:26] <impromptu> svetlana`, ya, I think I need to disable it on boot
[09:26] <Guest960> i connect to sever from nautilus... and i cant select Webdav Service and put the address
[09:26] <Guest960> aeon-ltd yes
[09:26] <yoda> does anybody know what perfmon is
[09:28] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: can you get to places?
[09:28] <Guest960> aeon-ltd  http://imagebin.ca/v/1rGoI8pmHXYl
[09:28] <Guest960> is in spanish but suppose its easy to understand
[09:28] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: then connect to server with cv.udl.cat i assume?
[09:29] <fishcooker> i've followed this https://wiki.debian.org/udev .. but no luck .. i want to make persistent usb device
[09:29] <Ben64> fishcooker: for debian?
[09:30] <Guest960> aeon-ltd conectar ( connect) is in grey and i had to chosse webdav and http protocol as said in the instructions
[09:31] <fishcooker> Ben64: Linux Null 3.13.0-45-lowlatency #74-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Tue Jan 13 19:55:31 UTC 2015 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
[09:31] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: after the address put :443
[09:31] <svetlana`> impromptu: I found this suggestion, please try it - comment 2 at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1061996
[09:31] <Ben64> fishcooker: you could have just said, "no, it is ubuntu"  check here.... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[09:32] <svetlana`> impromptu: (before you do that check that «ps aux|grep smbd» returns a line about running smbd process -- I expect it would)
[09:32] <fishcooker> on other channel i have to show output `uname -a`, Ben64
[09:32] <fishcooker> thankyou
[09:32] <Guest960> aeon-ltd still in grey ... cv.udl.cat:443
[09:33] <Guest960> it only is enabled when i select network:///
[09:33] <impromptu> svetlana`, there is a line :)
[09:33] <fishcooker> no i mean persistent udev rule, Ben64
[09:34] <Ben64> fishcooker: ooh, i saw "persistent usb" and thought you meant that. what do you mean exactly then?
[09:34] <svetlana`> impromptu: okay, good, let's try the stuff in comment 2 then :)
[09:34] <Guest960> aeon-ltd http://imagebin.ca/v/1rGqKtzEza1Y
[09:35] <impromptu> svetlana`, is cifs-utils installed by default on your machine ?
[09:35] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: try this 'http://cv.udl.cat/dav/103050-1415:443'
[09:36] <Guest960> aeon-ltd the same still grey
[09:36] <Guest960> perhaps i need an special package ?
[09:36] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: i just tried that, and i got a prompt for authentication username +pw
[09:36] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: try that in firefox
[09:36] <Guest960> from connect to sever ??
[09:37] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: no just staight up url into firefox
[09:37] <aeon-ltd> *straight
[09:38] <fishcooker> Ben64: i have usb modem that always attach to /dev/ttyUSB* .. i want to make sure wherever the modem attach it will attach to ie: /dev/modem
[09:38] <Guest960> aeon-ltd ok i can access i got the prompt also...
[09:38] <Guest960> so no cv.udl.cat related problem i guess
[09:38] <impromptu> svetlana`, commend 2 ?
[09:40] <Guest960> but having http error once i login.... http://imagebin.ca/v/1rGrvYxkV5MO
[09:43] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: the requested resource... well i'm guessing the url is not correct somewhere
[09:43] <aeon-ltd> even just dav doesn't work
[09:43] <Guest960> cv.udl.cat is the address to a login page it works ok
[09:43] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: have you tried this in places?
[09:44] <Guest960> aeon-ltd i suppose i had put some pics before
[09:44] <aeon-ltd> i think getting the actual client working is much more worth whlle
[09:44] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: https://cv.udl.cat/dav:443 get this working with places
[09:44] <impromptu> svetlana`, http://pastie.org/9938982
[09:45] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: you probably won't need the port (443) stuff
[09:46] <Guest960> how can i add it to places ??
[09:47] <Guest960> aeon-ltd
[09:47] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: you brought up that window earlier, the go to thing
[09:47] <farva> can some one tell me where I can find a log of IPs that have connected to my machine and the number of connections such as 'netstat -ntu'?
[09:48] <Guest960>  aeon-ltd still doesnt work... it seems like is missing an add button, to add the address to the second textbox... i can only get conectar enabled when i select the red network from second editbox
[09:48] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: in your browser have you tried reducing it down to 'https://cv.udl.cat/access/content/group' getting rid of the group number? since i can't access it you can try reducing the url part by part to see if other parts can be accessed
[09:50] <Loshki> farva: well, what kind of services have you been supplying?
[09:50] <Guest960> Site Unavailable ￼ ￼ The site you requested is not available.
[09:50] <Guest960> aeon-ltd
[09:51] <farva> its on a dedicated server, we were dos'd and I am trying to file the report-I caught the IP in question but need to supply the log of the attack
[09:52] <farva> unfortunately I am trash with networking so this is all dark area to me
[09:52] <svetlana`> impromptu: ok checking
[09:53] <Guest960> aeon-ltd the first problem i can see is that i cant select webdav type of service.. thats the first step
[09:54] <Guest960> aeon-ltd this is done to download folders and files with documents like ftp ... and download easily many documents without enterthe browser and web...
[09:54] <Loshki> farva: I suppose you can look through files in /var/log, but depending on the nature of how the DOS was executed, it might not have logged anything.
[09:55] <aeon-ltd> Guest960: in the conectar con el servidor window did you try this https://cv.udl.cat/dav/103050-1415 ? then did you try https://cv.udl.cat/dav/ both with and without the port numbers
[09:55] <farva> worth a shot though, if you can think of any other logs I can look through I will gladly do it
[10:00] <kblin> hi folks
[10:01] <svetlana`> hi
[10:01] <kblin> I seem to have a broken 14.04 install all of a sudden, and I'm currently trying to figure out what happens
[10:01] <kblin> I have the hunch that something
[10:01] <kblin> 's wrong with the btrfs root filesystem
[10:02] <kblin> but if I boot in rescue mode, I don't seem to have an option to run btrfsck
[10:02] <kblin> I can open a shell in rescue mode, but I get a ton of "stale file handle" issues
[10:03] <kblin> the system seems to be in a pretty unhealthy state, as it e.g. fails to run "ls" and claims that "coreutils" isn't installed
[10:04] <svetlana`> impromptu: there is one more thing to try, «cat /var/log/boot.log|grep smb». If that does not bring up useful information then I suspect I do not understand the root of the problem...
[10:05] <OerHeks> kblin, btrfs is currently marked as experimental, i hope you have backup of your data.
[10:05] <impromptu> svetlana`, Is ftp a better option to share your files ?
[10:06] <farva> Loshki:  which of these logs could give me a hint of the ddos?
[10:06] <svetlana`> impromptu: I share files over ssh.  set up a directory with correct permissions, and people use ssh and sftp from there.
[10:06] <kblin> OerHeks: it's an install that's about a week old, I don't have any important data on this
[10:06] <kblin> OerHeks: I have however had multiple systems running with btrfs for quite some time without any issues
[10:06] <svetlana`> impromptu: in such case each person will need to have a user account on the computer the share is on.
[10:07] <impromptu> svetlana`, samba don't work well, error 255 is all over the forums and no one seem to get it fixed yet
[10:07] <impromptu> smbd is not running ever
[10:07] <kblin> I mainly would like to avoid reinstalling from scratch, as
[10:08] <svetlana`> Guest960: did you figure out webdav?
[10:08] <kblin> I've set up LVM-crypt on this laptop, and that's always very painful to do via the ubuntu installer
[10:09] <svetlana`> impromptu: okay... one of the forums suggested it might be apparmor fault, but i am yet to figure out how to turn that off. give me a few minutes.
[10:09] <OerHeks> kblin, i have no experience with btrfs, and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/btrfs isn't helpfull with issues
[10:11] <farva> how do I even open these logs in the console? Since it isn't on a home machine I am having a bit of a trouble finding the right command for it
[10:12] <svetlana`> impromptu: does /var/log/samba/ exist?
[10:12] <farva> ./var/log...
[10:12] <impromptu> svetlana`, turn what off ? I can do most of the stuff
[10:12] <svetlana`> farva: I use «less /var/log/filename.log» (or tail) to read log files.
[10:12] <farva> I will give that a shot ty
[10:13] <impromptu> svetlana, Can you help me share a printer using cups ? or does it require Samba too ?
[10:13] <lulu> what
[10:13] <kblin> OerHeks: oh well, I guess I just need to get a proper live system and try to recover from that
[10:13] <svetlana`> lulu, hi.
[10:14] <lulu> hi
[10:14] <kblin> but what's the recommended FS for SSDs then? my experience with ext4 on flash storage is that the flash storage doesn't really last as long as I'd like
[10:15] <footer> Hi. when trying to do 'audio sync' with bluetooth headset I get this fail (DBusException(dbus.String(u'Stream setup failed'),),)
[10:15] <footer> I tried the solutions on internet but none tends to work
[10:15] <footer> I created asoundrc file and added my device there as well
[10:15] <Guest960> svetlana no we are working at this but no luck
[10:15] <impromptu> svetlana`, http://www.howtogeek.com/116309/use-ubuntus-public-folder-to-easily-share-files-between-computers/
[10:15] <footer> but still I am unable to hear the voice
[10:15] <Guest960> seems that i cant connect from "connect to server"
[10:15] <badak> hello
[10:16] <OerHeks> kblin, ext4 is fine, ssd's nowadays have a long lifetime.
[10:16] <mnms_> I need to change IP of my dns server, I understand that this change can take 24h because of propagation ?
[10:16] <badak> im wanna ask
[10:16] <mnms_> if I change domain delegation to another IP
[10:16] <badak> can i run ubuntu faster and light on my acer aspire one 722?
[10:16] <Ben64> mnms_: you probably want ##networking
[10:16] <mnms_> Ben64: thanks and sorry
[10:17] <badak> please
[10:17] <impromptu> svetlana`, no logs exist
[10:17] <cfhowlett> !ask | BaD_CrC
[10:17] <cfhowlett> !ask | badak
[10:17] <svetlana`> impromptu, I found https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSamba#Samba_as_a_server, maybe find all that information and 1) pastebin, ask around on this channel a few times and see if anyone knows; 2) ask at the ubuntu mailing list or forums as a lot of people would see your message there (although they may take a couple hours to respond).
[10:18] <badak> how to run very faster ubuntu?
[10:18] <badak> please
[10:18] <cfhowlett> badak, add more ram
[10:18] <Ben64> badak: try lubuntu
[10:18] <svetlana`> impromptu: including, yeah, the log about 'terminated with status 1' and 'spawning too fast', it looks relevant. you could also try disabling apparmor, but that's a beast I did not learn to use.
[10:19] <badak> lubuntu is lagy on my acer aspire one 722, ram 2gb
[10:19] <cfhowlett> !lubuntu | badak or install lubuntu with a terminal command: sudo apt-get install lxde              then logout/login
[10:19] <kblin> OerHeks: fair enough. I've tried to stay away form ext4 recently after running into some trouble with it at work. but arguably that was on quite large filesystems
[10:19] <cfhowlett> badak, if lubuntu lags, then ubuntu is not going to be any better
[10:19] <svetlana`> badak, I would check what processes consume the memory in your task manager then.
[10:19] <kblin> e.g. I couldn't resize it > 16 TB, not a problem I have on a laptop
[10:19] <footer> anyone exprenced with blueman?
[10:20] <svetlana`> footer: just ask with all the details, people would figure something out.
[10:20] <impromptu> svetlana`, I would disable it but I believe it is not required, something else is bugging smbd
[10:20] <svetlana`> impromptu: you could disable it temporarily just to test.
[10:20] <impromptu> svetlana`, ok I would test right now
[10:20] <svetlana`> Guest960: ok. what error message are you getting?
[10:20] <kblin> isn't that ubottu answer outdated a bit? Ubuntu isn't shipping Gnome as default desktop anymore, is it?
[10:20] <svetlana`> kblin: no idea.
[10:21] <footer> svetlana`: already asked nobody replied
[10:21] <mysupper> hello
[10:22] <svetlana`> footer: okay, I scrolled up a fair bit and I see it now.
[10:22] <badak> any body one from indonesian?
[10:22] <footer> aha
[10:22] <kblin> impromptu: I missed the start of your question, what samba problem did you have?
[10:22] <cfhowlett> !id | badak
[10:23] <badak> alone =)) no one online in ubuntu id =))
[10:23] <farva> is there a way for me to read a .gz file in /var/log/syslog?
[10:23] <farva> in consloe
[10:23] <farva> console*
[10:23] <kblin> farva: zless
[10:23] <farva> ty
[10:24] <mysupper> should I install chromium-brower as window chrome browser?
[10:24] <kblin> you can also use zgrep to search for things
[10:24] <cfhowlett> mysupper, nothing wrong with firefox browser
[10:24] <mysupper> I just like chromium :)
[10:24] <badak> wow chromium os?
[10:24] <cfhowlett> mysupper, so install it
[10:25] <Loshki> farva: well, what was the nature of the DOS?
[10:25] <Guest960> svetlana thanks i got it with help of aeon-ltd
[10:25] <impromptu> svetlana`, I did man! it ain't apparmor issue like I guessed
[10:25] <Guest960> i had to put the address: davs://cv.udl.cat/dav/103050-1415
[10:25] <farva> I am not savvy with how they use them, I just know it shut down our game server and pissed me off enough to hunt them down lol
[10:25] <mysupper> wow..I should install 210M more..heh.
[10:26] <impromptu> svetlana`, now the rest of the fight is on
[10:26] <svetlana`> impromptu: okay, thanks. once the forums or mailing list resolve it, let me know.
[10:26] <farva> we found their location, broke their proxy, all that good stuff, I just need to find the proof to turn them in
[10:26] <farva> all I had to go on was a netstat command that sorted active connections
[10:26] <Ben64> farva: not really relevant here
[10:27] <impromptu> svetlana`, I did resolve it myself, just purge samba
[10:27] <farva> Ben64: does it hurt to ask?
[10:27] <impromptu> svetlana`, and reinstall samba-common nautilus-share cifs-utils
[10:27] <Ben64> farva: you asked about reading gz files, you got the answer
[10:27] <farva> if people are happy to answer questions why raise a fuss?
[10:27] <svetlana`> impromptu: oh, interesting. presumably the stuff broke after upgrading, then?
[10:28] <farva> and am I asking you for anything or are people volunteering information
[10:28] <farva> why be rude Ben64
[10:28] <cfhowlett> farva, please stay on topic.
[10:28] <impromptu> svetlana`, smbd is running fully, but the shared Public folder would show Failed to mount Windows share: Permission denied, on the same machine in the Networks
[10:28] <svetlana`> farva: sorry, i think you midunderstood. he is not complaining about your questions -- he is complaining about the bits of context which you shared.
[10:28] <farva> oh I see
[10:29] <svetlana`> farva: :)
[10:29] <svetlana`> impromptu: i see -- would try adding the user to 'samba' group or some similar.
[10:29] <farva> I was just trying to put it into context why I was asking, to help better get the commands and such I need
[10:29] <svetlana`> impromptu: if there is a gui thingy for editing user rights, maybe it has a tick box for sharing files.
[10:29] <farva> my apologies Ben64
[10:29] <impromptu> svetlana`, i did tick both
[10:30] <impromptu> Ben64, you are the one from Samba right ?
[10:30] <kblin> impromptu: are you trying to share files from your machine or access files shared elsewhere?
[10:30] <impromptu> svetlana`, allow read and write, allow guests ( for users without account )
[10:30] <svetlana`> impromptu: i suspect you have to log in to the remote computer first.
[10:30] <Ben64> impromptu: no?
[10:30] <svetlana`> impromptu: but i am misreading that error message, give me a bit.
[10:30] <impromptu> kblin, ya, I am trying to share my Public Folder from the ~ with all the users on the network
[10:31] <impromptu> with any passwords or authentications
[10:31] <svetlana`> impromptu: i was thinking you are trying to share your own directory, but now you are showing me an error message about mounting a share. i do not understand where it's coming from.
[10:31] <impromptu> but I am getting an error message on the same machine ( as well as on other machines ) in the Networks
[10:32] <impromptu> svetlana`, when you share a directory using it is shown like this on the same computer and others as well
[10:32] <impromptu> http://cdn3.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/image152.png
[10:33] <impromptu> svetlana`, you are making a Windows share using Samba, Samba is windows thingy for unix-like system
[10:33] <impromptu> get it ?
[10:33] <kblin> impromptu: with or without?
[10:33] <impromptu> svetlana`, I cannot open my own shared folder in my own machine in the networks or even other clients
[10:34] <impromptu> kblin, without*
[10:34] <kblin> impromptu: also, quick and dirty and for one user only, or properly, in a way that works for all users?
[10:34] <svetlana`> impromptu: okay about the screenshot. (although this is not a windows share but i guess i should blame the translator.). ah i see where the error is coming from now.
[10:34] <impromptu> svetlana`, ok
[10:34] <impromptu> kblin, svetlana` http://www.howtogeek.com/116309/use-ubuntus-public-folder-to-easily-share-files-between-computers/
[10:34] <svetlana`> impromptu: i would type «id» on the commandline to check which groups the user is in.
[10:34] <impromptu> see this link again guys
[10:34] <impromptu> to understand
[10:36] <impromptu> svetlana`, uid=1000(xena) gid=1000(xena) groups=1000(xena),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),27(sudo),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),100(users),108(lpadmin),120(sambashare)
[10:36] <impromptu> my username is xena
[10:37] <kblin> impromptu: can you put the output of "testparm" on a pastebin?
[10:37] <svetlana`> impromptu: okay, see this one : http://baltar.blog.com/2014/05/11/ubuntu-failed-to-mount-windows-share-permission-denied/
[10:37] <svetlana`> impromptu: or, err, let kblin help you first, his approach looks more systematic.
[10:37] <kblin> impromptu: I haven't used the usershare options of samba so far, but there's a pretty straightforward way to do password-less sharing of folders
[10:38] <svetlana`> kblin: thank you
[10:39] <impromptu> svetlana`, I don't have any [share-name] section in the smb.conf
[10:39] <impromptu> kblin, wait a minute
[10:40] <jozefk> Sneg je opet Snezana :)
[10:40] <impromptu> svetlana`, force user thing makes some sense to me now
[10:41] <kblin> impromptu: so basically what I'm interested in is your [global] section in smb.conf, but testparm should give that
[10:41] <impromptu> kblin, http://pastie.org/9939138
[10:43] <kblin> impromptu: ok, so both a 'usershare allow guest' and a 'map to guest = Bad User' option are there
[10:43] <impromptu> kblin, which is nonsense
[10:44] <impromptu> I know but GUI has to change it for us
[10:44] <impromptu> I did tick all the options
[10:44] <impromptu> What should I do ?
[10:44] <impromptu> kblin, like svetlana` suggested [share] with force user is a fine idea too
[10:45] <kblin> but I'm not sure if that works with usershares
[10:45] <kblin> basically the "traditional" way of sharing folders with samba is to put them all into smb.conf
[10:45] <kblin> but only root can do that
[10:45] <impromptu> kblin, I am the root
[10:46] <impromptu> I mean I can be
[10:46] <impromptu> :)
[10:46] <impromptu> I don't understand you fully maybe
[10:46] <kblin> so in order to allow people to share their own files, we added the usershare stuff, and that's what the GUI uses
[10:46] <impromptu> I am sure you mean the GUI don't have root access
[10:46] <kblin> samba was built for corporate file servers, not for systems where there's a single user who also happens to know the root password ;)
[10:47] <impromptu> but I have like 10 users on this desktop
[10:47] <kblin> anyway, let me read up on usershares a bit more
[10:47] <impromptu> svetlana`, I am trying your suggestion
[10:47] <kblin> I think there's some sort of permission issue indeed
[10:48] <kblin> impromptu: so something like https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Samba/Tips_and_tricks#Sample_Passwordless_Configuration certainly will work
[10:50] <kblin> impromptu: ah, hang on
[10:50] <kblin> impromptu: what does running "net help usershare" in a terminal say?
[10:52] <kblin> impromptu: or even net usershare list
[10:59] <impromptu> kblin, wait
[10:59] <impromptu> kblin, it says Public
[10:59] <impromptu> which is the folder I shared
[11:01] <impromptu> Wtf does the GUI do then ?
[11:05] <kblin> impromptu: no idea
[11:05] <kblin> impromptu: never used the GUI :)
[11:05] <kblin> impromptu: bbiab, off to lunch
[11:05] <impromptu> kblin, Should I add [share] manually ?
[11:05] <impromptu> svetlana`, What do you suggest ?
[11:10] <svetlana`> impromptu: wait for kblin to return, i think you'll fix it by editing the file
[11:11] <svetlana`> my memory is a bit off, i don't think i'll be able to consume enough reading material to help you right now
[11:13] <mk10> hello all
[11:13] <impromptu> svetlana`, no problem, thanks for all you did :)
[11:13] <mk10> just installed ubuntu how come i cant see my ohter drivers
[11:14] <mk10> just installed ubuntu how come i cant see my other drives
[11:16] <svetlana`> mk10: which drives, and where are you looking for them?
[11:18] <k1l> mk10: what is on that other drives? can you open a terminal and put a "sudo fdisk -l" (small L at the end) and post the output into a pastbin and show the link here?
[11:18] <mk10> ok doing it now
[11:20] <impromptu> svetlana`, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=187221
[11:20] <impromptu> this dude edited it perfectly
[11:20] <impromptu> but still gets an error
[11:20] <impromptu> :)
[11:21] <svetlana`> i leave it to kblin -- that's too much information to consume and systemize in my head at this time of day
[11:25] <mk10> svetlana, here it is http://pastebin.com/7Lu678Nc
[11:27] <mk10> k1l, here it is http://pastebin.com/7Lu678Nc
[11:29] <davidlee> Hi
[11:29] <mk10> hi
[11:30] <svetlana`> mk10: ok. i do not know what sda2 or what gpt is at this point, but the software suggests looking at these in gparted. presumably your file manager would also pick them up, but i do not know what gpt is, so i am not yet sure how to do that.
[11:32] <svetlana`> mk10: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table#UNIX_and_Unix-like_operating_systems suggests gparted can read these partitions, for example,as does fdisk. for some reason none of the article suggests reading these partitions with a file manager.
[11:34] <svetlana`> gpt looks like metadata, i.e. a place where a computer stores data about partitions -- why it would occupy 1TB like in that pastebin is beyond my understanding.
[11:34] <k1l> mk10: what is on that other disks?
[11:35] <mk10> i got one main disk..the ssd...and other disk i was keep storage on
[11:36] <Hix> any of you guys wise in the way of Tar?
[11:37] <DaveQB> Hix: Maybe. What's the issue?
[11:37] <k1l> mk10: and what is the issue with that disks? what filesystem is on them? you cant mount them in the filemanager?
[11:37] <Guest43916> im using 14.04 with last updates.. how can i have the latest kernel ? i also want to have more than one kernel just in case
[11:38] <mk10> no filesystem dont c them
[11:38] <k1l> mk10: if there is data on them there needs to be a filesystem on that disks
[11:38] <Guest43916> now i have 3.13.0-24 generic on a desktop pc with 64bits
[11:38] <Hix> DaveQB I was using dd to create disc images for backups, but it is slow and completely writes the disc. I was advised that tar czpf would be more suited. Problem is I wish to do two partitions
[11:38] <Guest43916> in synaptic ive seen some 3.16 kernel....
[11:39] <k1l> Guest43916: run in terminal "sudo apt-get update &&sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[11:39] <DaveQB> Guest43916: I believe "linux-image-generic-lts-trusty"
[11:39] <k1l> Guest46552: when 14.04 will get the .2 point release (like the servicepack on windows) you will get offered a backport kernel from 14.10
[11:39] <DaveQB> Hix: 2 files into one tarball?
[11:39] <k1l> DaveQB: nope
[11:40] <DaveQB> Hix: I would suggest getting a better backup tool, though, for that.
[11:40] <Hix> DaveQB yes, so: I tried tar czpf backupmedia.tar.gz /media/partition1 /media/partition2
[11:40] <DaveQB> Hix: Like zbackup, rdiff-backup, boxbackup etc
[11:40] <Guest43916> k1l  i dont want to upgrade to 14.10 as its not lts... and for what ive read it has any important new f3eature
[11:41] <adison> iii
[11:41] <adison> comedme el cipote
[11:41] <Hix> I was told that tar was more than adequate for the task, trying to do linux purely from terminal so I learn the intricacies better
[11:41] <k1l> Guest43916: this will not bring you to 14.10. i know the command is confusing but its due to the old way of upgrading.
[11:43] <DaveQB> Hix: Tar can do it, but not the best tool for backups. zbackup is CLI. Have a look anyway, you might like it. But you command looks sound to it. Should create backupmedia.tar.gz with a media folder in it with partition1 and partition2 inside that
[11:45] <Guest43916> k1l would i have more than one kernel ? i dont want to loose my actual kernel as it works well... i want in grub to choose what kernel to  use... so could i use 3.16 ???
[11:47] <Guest43916> Linux kernel image for version 3.16.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP is for me ?
[11:48] <kblin> impromptu: sorry, back now
[11:48] <k1l> Guest43916: you will always have 2 kernels wehn you run the regular updates. 2 build of one kernel, 3.13 in your case since 14.04 got the 3.13 kernel. and there will be no updates to "the latest" kernel. but as i explained above you will get LTS backport kernel to choose with the hardware enablement stack. but you need to wait for 14.04.2 pointrelease
[11:49] <impromptu> kblin, no problem
[11:49] <impromptu> I am still messing
[11:49] <Guest43916> thanks
[11:49] <kblin> impromptu: basically the question is if you need this to work for all 10 users on your system
[11:50] <kblin> impromptu: because that determines if we can futz around a bit or if we need to fix this properly
[11:50] <impromptu> kblin, I want it to work on all user system
[11:50] <impromptu> on the network
[11:50] <kblin> ok :)
[11:50] <impromptu> kblin, there are like 35 clients on the networks
[11:50] <impromptu> they might be having 10 users each
[11:51] <impromptu> 350 users would access this Public folder
[11:51] <impromptu> it is serious shit
[11:51] <impromptu> you know I mean ?
[11:51] <impromptu> of course only 35 would be accessing at one time
[11:52] <kblin> impromptu: sure
[11:52] <impromptu> kblin, I am doing it all manually now with nautilus-share thing
[11:53] <impromptu> or I would use Samba's own GUI
[11:53] <kblin> samba has a GUI?
[11:54] <kblin> hmm
[11:54] <impromptu> kblin, yep
[11:54] <ifohancroft> Does anyone know if there is a PHP ppa that is compiled/build with thread_safety and pthreads
[11:54] <kblin> let me try this on my own system
[11:54] <kblin> impromptu: what's the GUI called?
[11:55] <impromptu> kblin, system-config-samba
[11:55] <kblin> impromptu: ah, pretty sure that's not from samba, just for samba :
[11:55] <kblin> :)
[11:56] <kblin> but it should work nontheless
[11:57] <kblin> impromptu: ok, so just to continue: "net usershare list Public", can you pastebin the output of that?
[11:58] <abator> what alternate to ultraiso is there for linux?
[11:59] <boodllebat> I need help with finite automata Thanks
[12:00] <impromptu> kblin, Its maintained by Ubuntu MOTU developers, wait I would pastebin that
[12:01] <impromptu> kblin, it gives me Public
[12:01] <impromptu> name of the folder I am sharing
[12:02] <kblin> ah, sorry
[12:02] <kblin> impromptu: I meant net usershare info Public
[12:02] <kblin> my bad
[12:03] <jhsuh> join #chat
[12:04] <impromptu> kblin, [Public]

[12:04] <impromptu> my username is changed there
[12:05] <impromptu> everything else is same
[12:05] <rzeka> Is it possible to change name of dir on the fly with "tar czf"? I'd like to archive "thename/" but I'd like it to have different name in archive
[12:05] <kblin> impromptu: ok, that looks reasonable
[12:06] <impromptu> kblin, I think we better stop Because It ain't going to be ok ever, internet is full of SMB permission bugs
[12:06] <kblin> impromptu: ok, other question. how many folders do you want to share with your 350 users?
[12:07] <kblin> impromptu: I haven't used this usershare stuff before, but I do have samba installs that work just fine, for > 10 years now
[12:07] <bahamas> hello. I rm -r /dev/md0 which was created by mdadm. how can I recreate it?
[12:08] <impromptu> kblin, PM ?
[12:08] <kblin> impromptu: sure
[12:10] <vandemar> rzeka: create a symlink?  there's --strip-components but that's for decompression only, I think, and I don't know how to prepend
[12:13] <CassioAlmeidas> how to list services that are consuming the internet ?
[12:15] <hateball> !info nethogs | CassioAlmeidas
[12:18] <CassioAlmeidas> hateball: thanks
[12:19] <Ziktofel> hi there, is there any expert of combo jacks?
[12:20] <Ziktofel> as I can't get the external mic working
[12:24] <bahamas> anyone have any idea how to fix my issue?
[12:25] <Ben64> bahamas: you'd probably have to explain it first
[12:26] <bahamas> Ben42: I did above, but I'll do it again. I deleted a device rm -r /dev/md0 which I had created with mdadm. how can I recreate it?
[12:27] <bahamas> the array is still active. I can see it with cat /proc/mdstat

[12:35] <freeroute> hi, I'm trying to run the live 14.04 from USB stick on a computer with BIOS version P4i65G P1.10 (Celeron 2.4GHz). MD5 sum checked out and afterwards I ran the following command from another machine - 'dcfldd if=lubuntu-14.04-desktop-i386.iso of=/dev/sdb'. That was successful as well, however when I try to boot from the USB on the target machine it says "isolinux.bin missing or corrupt".
[12:35] <cfhowlett> freeroute, celeron?  might need 32 bit not 64 bit ubuntu
[12:36] <freeroute> cfhowlett: lubuntu-14.04-desktop-i386.iso
[12:37] <freeroute> in the BIOS of the target machine, the Legacy USB Support is set to [Auto]
[12:37] <annabel_> Legacy USB Support is typically for input devices not storage devices
[12:38] <freeroute> annabel_: so it's fine to set it to auto?
[12:38] <annabel_> Have it enabled
[12:39] <freeroute> ok, I'll try that.
[12:39] <annabel_> i don't think that will fix your issue though
[12:40] <annabel_> i would try creating the bootable USB using a different tool on a different USB using the same iso downloaded from another source
[12:40] <annabel_> i run yosemite on my main computer and have a Win7 virtual box instance to use Universal-USB-Installer-1.9.5.9.exe
[12:46] <freeroute> annabel_: hmm, people have advised me against using tools other than dd to make bootable USB sticks but that was more in regards to UEFI, so I suppose I'll try and use a tool. I downloaded the image from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/14.04/release/ and I'm not sure what a more 'official' source would be. Do you have any recommendations on a tool to use which works on Linux? I don't have access to
[12:46] <freeroute> a Windows machine atm.
[12:48] <Ben64> freeroute: unetbootin
[12:48] <bacon|> freeroute: unetbootin works on linux
[12:48] <bacon|> freeroute: but dd is best, why do you not want to use it?
[12:48] <jatt> hi, I want that a remote ssh host asks me for a password even when I have password-less login setup, how can this be done. I want to do this to reset my password
[12:48] <freeroute> bacon|: read my previous comment, I did, but it resulted in an error.
[12:48] <freeroute> *comments
[12:49] <Ben64> freeroute: you said you used dcfldd
[12:50] <Ben64> freeroute: also, verify the md5sum of the iso
[12:52] <freeroute> Ben64: AFAIK dcfldd either uses dd as well or works on the same principle. Also I did verify the md5sum ^
[12:52] <OerHeks> Ben64, i just learned dcfldd can verify that a target drive is a bit-for-bit match of the specified input file or pattern, awesome !
[12:52] <freeroute> but I can try dd, not sure if this is the culprit though (since dcfldd is used in forensic applications, which is why it has those features that OerHeks is talking about)
[12:53] <gerep> Hello all. I just made the net install and installed DWM. I have no sound right now. I used the command aplay -l to list my sound devices and I have this: card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: CX20590 Analog [CX20590 Analog]
[12:54] <gerep> I also have alsa and pulseaudio installed but still no results
[12:54] <freeroute> gerep: not sure if this helps, but can you run alsamixer on it? What does it tell you?
[12:54] <gerep> I have checked the alsamixer and the sounds are ok
[12:54] <gerep> freeroute: yes
[12:54] <freeroute> ah
[12:55] <gerep> freeroute: one thing I think is wierd is that I need to run it as sudo
[12:55] <gerep> is that correct?
[12:55] <gerep> Shouldn't I be able to run is without sudo?
[12:55] <freeroute> is the volume knob dialed the right way? :p
[12:55] <freeroute> you should afaik
[12:55] <gerep> freeroute: yes :)
[12:55] <gerep> Simple mixer control 'Master',0

[12:55] <gerep>   Front Right: Playback 65536 [100%] [on]
[12:56] <tunafish_> a guide suggest this command "ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -f ssh_host_rsa_key < /dev/null" I can't understand the point of dev/null here, wouldn't it make a less random key? Maybe I should use use dev/random or nothing while generating keys? guide is: https://stribika.github.io/2015/01/04/secure-secure-shell.html
[12:56] <freeroute> alsamixer runs without sudo just fine here
[12:56] <OerHeks> no need to run alsamixer with sudo. that might be your issue
[12:57] <gerep> any ideas on how to solve that?
[12:57] <gerep> I'm not root, I'm a sudo user
[12:57] <gerep> And I installed it as usual, sudo apt-get install ...
[12:57] <gerep> Any ideas?
[12:58] <freeroute> http://askubuntu.com/questions/54741/only-root-can-play-sounds
[12:58] <gerep> thanks, I'll check that link
[12:58] <freeroute> the query I used - https://startpage.com/do/search?query=alsamixer+needs+sudo&cat=web&pl=chrome&language=english
[13:01] <gerep> freeroute: I'll logout to try that change, thanks for your help :)
[13:04] <Peanuts> Hi, can someone tell me whats the difference between "/etc/apt/sources.list" and what is in "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/"?
[13:05] <OpenTokix> Peanuts: The idea is to keep system standard in sources.list untouched, and keep any additional sources as individual configfiles in sources.list.d
[13:06] <OpenTokix> Peanuts: But nothing prevents you from adding sources in sources.list, but to keep em tidy is a good best practise
[13:06] <saleem> !linux
[13:06] <saleem> !kernel
[13:06] <Peanuts> OpenTokix: Thank you :) that's what I wanted
[13:07] <jatt> on my server if I type
[13:07] <jatt> sudo foo
[13:07] <jatt> my password is asked, but if I type
[13:07] <jatt> sudo -u foo bash
[13:07] <jatt> it doesn't. how can I configure it so the former starts bash without asking for password?
[13:07] <jatt>  
[13:08] <nessessary129> !help
[13:10] <Hix> right. Created a backup tarball of a drive with two partitons on it. when I open the tarball i see /media and then /long-garbled-partiition-id-1 and long-garbled-partition-2. Question is; how Do i extract that tarball to another drive as the root of the tar is /media. I know how to use dd but am trying a similar thing to try and improve my tar and overall linux knowledge.
[13:11] <tunafish_> fount it, it is used to suppress ssh-keygen about passphrese, since that command used for server root key creation.
[13:11] <Ben64> Hix: using tar on a whole drive is not an easy or effective way to backup, i wouldn't recommend it
[13:12] <Hix> I've been advised that it is equally as capable as dd, if used correctly.
[13:12] <Hix> therein lies the problem [me - the user :) ]
[13:13] <Ben64> i wouldn't use dd either
[13:13] <freeroute> Ben64: booting from a USB made with unetbootin just says "Boot error".
[13:14] <freeroute> not sure what to try next
[13:14] <Ben64> freeroute: a different usb drive
[13:14] <xubuntu> ok
[13:18] <freeroute> Ben64: tried using a different USB stick (16gb instead of 8gb) and still no luck.
[13:18] <freeroute> should I still try using dd using that new drive instead of unetbootin?
[13:19] <OpenTokix> freeroute: Are you using a modern computer? Try switching from or to UEFI
[13:19] <freeroute> OpenTokix: BIOS version P4i65G P1.10 (Celeron 2.4GHz) - not exactly modern no :p
[13:19] <OpenTokix> freeroute: usually you can select BIOS or UEFI, - And some bioses does not allow usbbooting from one or the other.
[13:20] <freeroute> ah damnit, I don't think I can try new things. It's my grandma's computer and people are laughing at me and telling me to just install winXP -___-
[13:21] <OpenTokix> freeroute: evil
[13:21] <freeroute> ikr, I'll try to pull some more time though
[13:21] <OpenTokix> freeroute: try the dd suggestion
[13:21] <annabel_> freeroute if they are suggesting XP the joke is entirely on them
[13:22] <freeroute> I know, but then again win7 isn't the right answer either since it has only 512mb of RAM
[13:22] <Ben64> burn a cd?
[13:22] <freeroute> Don't have a CD drive on this computer :D
[13:23] <freeroute> and no burner on the other :(
[13:23] <OpenTokix> freeroute: pxeboot =)
[13:23] <annabel_> try xubuntu or lubuntu
[13:23] <OpenTokix> annabel_: how on earth will that solve his/her issue?
[13:23] <Ben64> how does a computer not have a cd drive
[13:23] <freeroute> annabel_: dcfldd if=lubuntu-14.04-desktop-i386.iso of=/dev/sdb
[13:24] <freeroute> Ben64: Lenovo x230
[13:24] <OpenTokix> dcfldd ?
[13:24] <annabel_> OpenTokix: do you know what is the cause of their issue?
[13:24] <Hix> I have two laptops X201 thinkpad and MBP neither have an optical drive
[13:24] <OpenTokix> annabel_: yes, cant boot =)
[13:24] <annabel_> No that's the symptom
[13:24] <Ben64> oh laptop
[13:24] <annabel_> Do you know what is the cause of their issue?
[13:24] <popey> my desktop has no optical drive :)
[13:24] <OpenTokix> annabel_: and a drifferent issue is the cause?
[13:25] <annabel_> That question doesn't make sense OpenTokix
[13:25] <That30guy> hi
[13:25] <OpenTokix> Nevermind
[13:25] <Ben64> freeroute: take the drive out, put it in your computer and install
[13:25] <EriC^> freeroute: did you try to use dd?
[13:25] <annabel_> When you know for certain the cause of their issue you can categorically claim lubuntu or xubuntu won't fix it, until then...
[13:25] <freeroute> EriC^: not on the new USB stick, but I'll try
[13:26] <Ben64> annabel_: its not booting, doesn't matter if its ubuntu kubuntu xubuntu lubuntu or whatever
[13:26] <annabel_> It is booting, but it's failing to read a file
[13:27] <OpenTokix> annabel_: My experience with knowledge of the difference between ubuntu, lubuntu and xbunutu tells me this.
[13:27] <annabel_> It forces them to try another iso if nothing else
[13:28] <OpenTokix> However, I just realized I will switch to lbunutu for my pxe live cd
[13:28] <freeroute> annabel_: I also have sysrescueCD on a USB stick, I'll try that
[13:28] <OpenTokix> annabel_: so thanks for that =)
[13:32] <freeroute> annabel_: well I'll be damned... SystemRescueCD works.
[13:33] <freeroute> if anything I suppose I have to take this to #lubuntu then
[13:33] <annabel_> That channel is dead
[13:34] <freeroute> :(
[13:35] <freeroute> another method would be to install ubuntu-minimal (or netinstall?) and then just install the lubuntu-desktop?
[13:35] <OpenTokix> freeroute: yes
[13:41] <linuxthefish> how do i fix "checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.0.0... Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path."
[13:49] <Chibbity> Can anyone help me interpret what this error message is trying to tell me?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10173321/  Is it that I have no sshd config file and need one?
[14:01] <guest-8UUngS> does anyone know how i can upgarde my system to VividVervet/Alpha1/UbuntuGNOME
[14:01] <hateball> !ubuntu+1
[14:08] <guest-8UUngS> hi does anyone know the code to upgrade to 15.04
[14:09] <k1l> guest-8UUngS: did you see the user direct you to the alpha/beta/unstable channel #ubuntu+1 ?
[14:09] <cfhowlett> guest-8UUngS, upgrade to a non-released version?  doesn't seem wise.  as noted above; #ubunt+1
[14:10] <guest-8UUngS> cheers
[14:11] <guest-8UUngS> so one around on #ubunt+1
[14:11] <Pici> its #ubuntu+1
[14:11] <Ziktofel> eny expert with combo jacks?

[14:16] <gerep> freeroute: hey, it worked =)
[14:17] <gerep> Now I have a nother issue related to DWM, I have the .xinitrc file just this: https://gist.github.com/gerep/082c46bb6adf7a440b4f The xsetroot is not working, any ideas?
[14:17] <gerep> Redshift, xbindkeys and dwm are working but the dmenu doesn't show what xsetroot tells to
[14:18] <gerep> I just notice I don't have x11-xserver-utils installed :)
[14:20] <zetheroo> I am trying to get a VNC connection working from an Ubuntu machine to another Ubuntu machine without any luck
[14:20] <zetheroo> On the machine that I want to remotely connect to I only have cli
[14:21] <tomodachi> zetheroo: does it have a running x server or is it a virtual X server you want?
[14:21] <zetheroo> I have installed xubuntu-desktop, xfce4, xfce4-goodies and tightvncserver
[14:22] <zetheroo> tomodachi: this is what I have been following: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-vnc-on-ubuntu-14-04
[14:23] <zetheroo> the machine I want to remotely control is a OpenVZ container running on Proxmox - the container is created from an Ubuntu 14.04 template.
[14:23] <mregg> Hi all, I'm trying to set acl on a directory. I have done it before, and this time it doesn't work... I don't know why. What I want to do : allow group1 as ro on dir1. What I do : setfacl -m d:g:group1:r-x dir1
[14:24] <zetheroo> I just cannot get anything like Remmina or vinagre to connect to the machine
[14:25] <Sc0tty-> how do I search for a file from the terminal? what command?
[14:25] <zetheroo> How do I check if VNC is running on the machine I am trying to connect to?
[14:26] <somsip> Sc0tty-: what are you trying to find? the 'find' commmand does lots of clever filtering
[14:27] <tomodachi> zetheroo: so where do you get stuck?
[14:28] <zetheroo> tomodachi:  cannot get anything like Remmina or vinagre to connect to the machine
[14:28] <Sc0tty-> I am trying to find a config file on my filesystem, I can't remember where it is saved @somsip
[14:29] <Sc0tty-> the name is inetconfig.sh
[14:30] <somsip> Sc0tty-: find {starting path} -type f -name 'inetconfig.sh'
[14:31] <somsip> Sc0tty-: where starting path should be as low as you can get. Doing it from / will take ages. Doing it from ~/ might not
[14:32] <kokut> Hello, i just moved hundreds of file from one folder to another and now i came back to the folder and accidentaly pressed control Z instead of control C and the files came back, tried pressing control Y but they dont go away, what do i do?
[14:33] <zetheroo> tomodachi: I open the SSH tunnel on my local machine, and that seem to work. But then when i try to connect to the remote machine using a VNC viewer connecting to "localhost:5901" the connection fails.
[14:34] <tomodachi> zetheroo: do you see that the machine is listening on the port?
[14:34] <tomodachi> zetheroo:  do a netstat -taupen |pastebinit
[14:34] <tomodachi> and link it here
[14:34] <zetheroo> tomodachi: no
[14:34] <zetheroo> ok
[14:34] <zetheroo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10173845/
[14:35] <tomodachi> zetheroo: your vnc isnt running
[14:35] <tomodachi> so there is nothing to connect to
[14:35] <zetheroo> :P
[14:35] <Ziktofel> any expert with combo jacks?
[14:36] <g3ky> Hey Guys, How ya all doing? =)
[14:36] <zetheroo> tomodachi: how about now? http://paste.ubuntu.com/10173860/
[14:37] <tomodachi> zetheroo: yes you see the first entry Xtightvnc on port 5901
[14:37] <zetheroo> ok
[14:38] <zetheroo> I still cannot connect to it from my local machine
[14:39] <zetheroo> vinagre gives me "Error creating the SSH tunnel. Connection refused by server"
[14:39] <tomodachi> zetheroo: firewall?
[14:39] <tomodachi> ah you are tunneling
[14:40] <zetheroo> both my local machine and the remote machine are in the same network and domain
[14:40] <zetheroo> well ... I wish I didn't have to tunnel ... :)
[14:41] <zetheroo> If I don't use the SSH tunnel option in vinagre I get: Connection closed. Connection to host 192.168.81.66 was closed."
[14:41] <kdu> hi all, does anybody have any clue why squid3 is not loading all images ?(its transparent and not caching anything)
[14:42] <tomodachi> zetheroo: well your problem seems to be the ssh tunnel so far
[14:42] <tomodachi> now that the vnc server is running
[14:43] <zetheroo> I have used remote desktop many times on Ubuntu machines without issues ... do they all do SSH tunneling by default?
[14:43] <zetheroo> If not how can I just get a simple remote desktop connection going?
[14:44] <jzp113> someone know the hack channel ?
[14:44] <ikonia> the hack channe ?
[14:44] <ikonia> channel
[14:44] <NikolaiToryzin> You.
[14:44] <ikonia> not here.....
[14:44] <ikonia> ubuntu support here
[14:45] <NikolaiToryzin> You're the hack channel.
[14:45] <g3ky> lol
[14:45] <cfhowlett> NikolaiToryzin, not true, not helpful.  stop.
[14:45] <cfhowlett> !behelpful | NikolaiToryzin
[14:45] <BluesKaj> jzp113, what makes you trhink there's a hack channel
[14:46] <choki> Can someone tell me a cheap graphics card to use with ubuntu to run 3 x 1440x900 displays (DVI) with?
[14:46] <zetheroo> Is there a way to enable the regular Ubuntu Desktop Sharing options via cli?
[14:46] <jzp113> BluesKaj, no I just ask
[14:46] <g3ky> zetheroo, Check out teamviewer.
[14:46] <cfhowlett> choki, ask the ##hardware channel
[14:46] <choki> cfhowlett: doesnt work i need to register tehre
[14:46] <zetheroo>  g3ky: really!? :P
[14:48] <g3ky> zetheroo, Sorry, If I misunderstood your question.
[14:53] <BlauskaerM> zetheroo: How did you set up the ssh tunnel?
[14:53] <zetheroo> BlauskaerM: I just dumbly followed this https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-vnc-on-ubuntu-14-04
[14:54] <BlauskaerM> zetheroo: Are you using putty to set up the tunnel or a linux terminal?
[14:55] <zetheroo> to connect?
[14:55] <zetheroo> I am entering in that "ssh -L 5901:127.0.0.1:5901 -N -f -l user server_ip_address" line in the terminal on my local machine
[14:56] <zetheroo> and then I am trying to use Remmina or Vinagre to open the remote desktop
[14:57] <BlauskaerM> Hmmm
[14:57] <BlauskaerM> seems right
[14:57] <Guest20057> hello
[14:57] <zetheroo> but I would rather just be able to get vino working ... as it seems to be much simpler
[14:58] <BlauskaerM> Should be the same principle
[14:58] <zetheroo> BlauskaerM: I was able to get Desktop Sharing enabled on the remote machine ... but I don't know how to get vino started
[14:58] <zetheroo> is vino a sevice?
[14:58] <zetheroo> service*
[14:59] <BlauskaerM> zetheroo: Havent tried vino =/
[14:59] <zetheroo> ok
[14:59] <BlauskaerM> But as I said, the principle should be the same
[15:00] <tomodachi> zetheroo: skip ssh forwarding through the gui ap for now , try it from terminal
[15:00] <zetheroo> tomodachi: I thought that is what I was doing ...
[15:00] <tomodachi> zetheroo: ssh -L:8082:localhost:5901 yourusername@yourhostname.com
[15:01] <Pici> zetheroo: what address/port are you trying to connect to with your vnc client?
[15:01] <tomodachi> zetheroo: run the command on your client machine ssh:ing into the remote server
[15:01] <tomodachi> then you can run your vnc client on your client machine with localhost as ip
[15:01] <cartwright> Pici: ban me please
[15:01] <tomodachi> and port 8082 as port
[15:02] <cfhowlett> cartwright, no need for that ... just leave
[15:02] <cartwright> cfhowlett: huh
[15:02] <zetheroo> tomodachi: ok I ran the command and am ssh'ed in
[15:02] <jb> I'm trying to determine if freeipa-client v4 will be in any future versions of ubuntu.  It looks like 15.03 will still include 3?  where can I confirm this?
[15:02] <cartwright> cfhowlett: am I talking to YOU?
[15:02] <cartwright> no.
[15:02] <cartwright> myob
[15:04] <zetheroo> tomodachi: trying to connect to the desktop with Remmina - asks for a VNC password  ...
[15:05] <tomodachi> zetheroo: good so you are there, the password I presume would be the one of the user you have on that machine
[15:05] <zetheroo> Vinagre also asks for a VNC password
[15:05] <zetheroo> ok, but that password isn't working
[15:05] <Whitor> vnc uses it's own password... it is set upon install, usually.
[15:05] <tomodachi> zetheroo: i think there is a vncpasswd command or something similair
[15:06] <zetheroo> Whitor: right, I remember that ... is there a way to reset that password?
[15:06] <Whitor> zetheroo, I believe there is a registry key you need to remove
[15:06] <Whitor> zetheroo, the other option would be to uninstall, then reinstall.
[15:07] <Whitor> that /could/ retain settings... depending on how through the uninstall is... though
[15:07] <zetheroo> :-/
[15:07] <Whitor> ^thorough
[15:08] <Whitor> zetheroo, do you have physical access to the computer?
[15:09] <tomodachi> Whitor: no its some vm someplace else
[15:09] <zetheroo> ok, I reset it using vncpasswd
[15:09] <tomodachi> zetheroo: so does it work?
[15:09] <zetheroo> but the new password doesn't work either ...
[15:09] <zetheroo> or do I need to restart some service ?
[15:10] <tomodachi> zetheroo: i think its read on startup so yes kill the service and start it again
[15:10] <zetheroo> hmm ... on restarting the vncserver service I get http://paste.ubuntu.com/10174233/
[15:10] <tomodachi> you should already know from our conversation how to verify that its upp and runing
[15:11] <tomodachi> zetheroo: and?
[15:11] <zetheroo> authentication failure :(
[15:12] <zetheroo> can't I just disable the whole authentication part? we really dont need it
[15:12] <tomodachi> zetheroo: well you are close, perhaps you can try to read the logs and try to draw some conclusions on your own? i feel that we have a lot of hand holding here
[15:13] <tomodachi> and im running out of patience / time
[15:13] <zetheroo>  tomodachi: well thanks for your help - I have been reading dozens of online sources for this all day ... so I am not just sitting here waiting to be spoon-fed either ;)
[15:14] <zetheroo> But I have found it's a good idea to consult all available sources for input, and this channel is one of them :)

[15:47] <DolphinDreamm> i have ubuntu 14.04 64 bit installed.. and i'm trying to install a java program but it tells me Error unpacking jar files. The architecture or bitness (32/64)
[15:47] <DolphinDreamm> of the bundled JVM might not match your machine.  any ideas how to fix this ?
[15:54] <test_> hello
[15:54] <test_> wow..ubuntu desktop is beauful!
[15:54] <test_> I should prepare a machine for ubuntu desktop.
[15:56] <test_> anyone using amd8300 cpu? I wonder it will work great in ubuntu.
[15:56] <teward> test_: spin it up with a Live Image.  No way to get an idea without a LiveUSB / LiveCD test
[15:58] <Snickerz> live can't always be the best decision maker, you are limited to the read of the disk drive or usb slot
[15:59] <test_> I hav e a 250G ssd working on stupid cpu. heh.
[16:00] <test_> I'm thinking of amdfx8300 for new system with this ssd.
[16:02] <Snickerz> hopefully things will be optimized for those 8 core cpus that have been coming out
[16:05] <zer0h> I am unable to get past my gnome log in screen
[16:06] <K4k> zer0h: if you press Ctrl-Alt-F2, can you log in to a console?
[16:07] <zer0h> Think so
[16:07] <zer0h> I can login through lxde
[16:07] <K4k> Has anything changed recently on your system?
[16:08] <K4k> zer0h: oh, wait, you mean you can login if you choose the lxde session but not if you choose the gnome session?
[16:08] <zer0h> yes k4k
[16:09] <salvo> ciao a tutti
[16:09] <K4k> OK, just so I make sure I've got the picture of what's going on in my mind. You log in to your gnome session, it accepts your credentials and then what does it do? Does it just go blank and kick you back to the login screen or does it do something else?
[16:11] <zer0h> K4k, yes it takes in the password goes black and am back to login screen again
[16:13] <zetheroo> does Ubuntu 14.04 no longer have/use an xorg.conf file?
[16:13] <K4k> zetheroo: please paste the contents of your /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log. You'll probably have to log in to LXDE to do this.

[16:19] <zer0h> brb
[16:19] <K4k> zer0h: hmmm, that only shows your most recently login... I'm looking now to see what log has your previous attempts.
[16:21] <daftykins> K4k: i think session error files within ~ being owned by root instead of the user sometimes has something to do with that
[16:21] <daftykins> user left, though
[16:21] <K4k> daftykins: Yeah, I was thinking permissions on ~/* files but wanted to check the log first before blindly assuming :) As we saw last night, I've got a bad habit of that...
[16:22] <zer0h> K4k,
[16:22] <zer0h> My splash screen is broken too
[16:22] <zer0h> it is not being displayed properly
[16:22] <K4k> zer0h: That sounds like a seperate issue
[16:23] <K4k> Check the permission of all the files in your home directory, including the dot files. Are they all owned by you?
[16:23] <zer0h> Is there anyway I can just change them all in one go?
[16:23] <daftykins> zer0h: "ls -al ~/ | pastebinit"
[16:23] <daftykins> the idea of running a single command to shotgun a problem you're not even sure is true or not, is extremely bad logic
[16:24] <zer0h> yes I agree
[16:24] <K4k> zer0h: technically, yes, find can do that, but I'd like to do it manually for the reason daftykins said....
[16:24] <K4k> you can use find to quickly show you, though
[16:25] <K4k> find ~ ! -user $YOUR_USERNAME -o ! -group $YOUR_USERNAME -print
[16:25] <K4k> (I think OR is -o...)
[16:26] <daftykins> only the ones in the immediate root of ~ matter, so just run the above command i shared :>
[16:26] <K4k> awwww
[16:27] <zer0h> http://pastebin.com/u9FwpT88
[16:28] <K4k> daftykins: is .Xauthority supposed to be 777?
[16:28] <k1l> nope
[16:28] <daftykins> sounds like someone has been firing all kindsa commands already ;)
[16:29] <daftykins> there are 4 files in there owned by root, i don't think they're related though
[16:29] <zer0h> I just changed .Xauthority
[16:29] <zer0h> I was in between some urgent work and was trying a quick resolution
[16:29] <zer0h> which obviously failed
[16:31] <zer0h> any idea guys/ daftykins K4k
[16:32] <daftykins> so you have a backlight script that's root owned, probably not a problem - then the folder ".face" is root owned - no idea what that is
[16:32] <K4k> Well, the .Xauthority file should be 600 not 777, but I don't think that's your issue. Also, .face should probably be manu:manu, not root:root
[16:32] <k1l> at last try one could reste the gnome desktop settings. but at last resort
[16:32] <daftykins> and .rpmdb
[16:32] <k1l> zer0h: see what ".xsession-errors" says about the last login that didnt work
[16:33] <daftykins> zer0h: "pastebinit ~/.xsession-errors"
[16:33] <zer0h> http://pastebin.com/LWwkEwUM
[16:34] <zer0h> daftykins, k4k
[16:34] <zer0h> pasted
[16:34] <k1l> so you did change the fonts?
[16:35] <daftykins> that's one unhappy looking file :P
[16:35] <zer0h> No I did not change the fonts
[16:35] <zer0h> :S
[16:35] <daftykins> tested the guest account?
[16:36] <zer0h> yes
[16:36] <zer0h> gnome doesnt work
[16:36] <daftykins> alright, so sounds like system wide breakage
[16:36] <daftykins> what were you up to last? it can't have spontaneously done it
[16:37] <zer0h> I was installing wireshark
[16:37] <zer0h> I started it up
[16:37] <zer0h> then thought of a restart
[16:37] <daftykins> via what method?
[16:37] <zer0h> sudo apt-get
[16:37] <zer0h> can a system update be able to solve it?
[16:38] <zer0h> so that all broken things would be fixed?
[16:41] <K4k> This is the line that is most interesting to me from the logs: Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-khmer.conf", line 14: out of memory
[16:41] <Snickerz> what about (polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:2169): polkit-gnome-1-WARNING **: Failed to register client: ?
[16:42] <Snickerz> or the line above that
[16:42] <K4k> Snickerz: hadn't seen that, I was reading bottom to top
[16:42] <K4k> Oh my, yes I see that now...
[16:42] <Snickerz> GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files
[16:46] <Snickerz> zer0h: try reinstalling the gnome desktop?
[16:46] <zer0h> is there anyway to reset it first?
[16:47] <daftykins> i would've been tempted to suggest renaming all your .gnome folders, but it looks like it's not relevant to your own /home settings but something system wide
[16:48] <K4k> sounds like a policykit issue. Re-installing gnome would install any missing files...
[16:48] <Snickerz> http://askubuntu.com/questions/56313/how-do-i-reset-gnome-to-the-defaults
[16:48] <zer0h> ok so i reinstall gdm is it?
[16:49] <daftykins> gdm is just a login manager
[16:49] <Snickerz> i think its gnome-desktop>
[16:49] <Snickerz> ?
[16:49] <K4k> ^^
[16:50] <K4k> apt-get install --reinstall gnome-desktop
[16:50] <bazhang> !info gnome-desktop
[16:50] <bazhang> ubuntu-desktop is what you mean
[16:51] <K4k> bazhang: was it just in precise?
[16:51] <zer0h> So am gonna do -> apt-get install --reinstall gnome-desktop
[16:51] <bazhang> !info gnome-desktop precise
[16:51] <bazhang> K4k, no
[16:51] <K4k> zer0h: no, apparently it's ubuntu-desktop, not gnome-desktop
[16:52] <zer0h> ok
[16:52] <daftykins> but ubuntu-desktop wouldn't provide a gnome session, it'd only be unity, no?
[16:52] <bazhang> is he on unity or gnome-shell
[16:52] <zer0h> I am in lxde now
[16:53] <bazhang> so lubuntu-desktop
[16:53] <rubiksmomo> Hey. I'm gonna upgrade my GPU from GTX 570 to GTX 960 soon. How should I do it? Should I (un)install some drivers before switching the iron?
[16:53] <K4k> bazhang: no, the issue is not lxde, he said he can't log in to the gnome session from lightdm
[16:53] <Snickerz> he wants to fix his gnome login though
[16:54] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: what driver do you have on right now? you'll need nvidia 340+
[16:54] <rubiksmomo> I have Nvidia binary driver v331.113 installed/loaded now. Where do I get a newer one?
[16:54] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: you'll have to remove that, then add xorg-edgers PPA maybe and install their latestr
[16:54] <tomodachi> rubiksmomo: check what versions your current driver support, usually each driver supports a wide range of cards so you probably dont need to
[16:55] <daftykins> tomodachi: wrong in this case unfortunately, 331 doesn't cover the 9xx series
[16:59] <rubiksmomo> Should I download from Nvidia website?
[17:02] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: nope
[17:02] <Snickerz> would installing the card and then running update with apt-get automatically download the need drivers?
[17:02] <Snickerz> needed""
[17:02] <rubiksmomo> OK, I'll try to install this PPA thing
[17:03] <daftykins> Snickerz: not even vaguely. newer drivers are not available in the default repos, nor would they be updated since the installed package is nvidia-331.
[17:04] <lukeyboy9559> hello
[17:04] <rubiksmomo> OK, so I do: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
[17:04] <daftykins> correct
[17:04] <rubiksmomo> awesome :)
[17:04] <daftykins> ^5 for being able to read instructions \o/ so many aren't
[17:05] <lukeyboy9559> can i run Ubuntu on normal built in system graphics ?
[17:05] <daftykins> from online - "For those planning to pick up a GeForce GTX 960, they'll work fine on the Linux distribution of your choice if using the NVIDIA 346.35 Linux driver released last week"
[17:05] <daftykins> lukeyboy9559: yes, what kind? intel on-die? AMD APU?
[17:05] <K4k> lukeyboy9559: do you know what graphics you have onboard or what processor your computer has (if you don't know the graphics info).
[17:06] <lukeyboy9559> i dont know of the top of my head :/
[17:06] <rubiksmomo> Thanks. I'll select 340.76 driver now.
[17:06] <daftykins> lukeyboy9559: are you on the system in question?
[17:06] <lukeyboy9559> no
[17:06] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: as my paste above suggests, you might need even newer
[17:07] <rubiksmomo> Umm, it's not listed
[17:07] <rubiksmomo> I'm at Software & Updates > Additional Drivers
[17:07] <steel767> what means command "shopt -s dotglob" ?
[17:07] <rubiksmomo> But they are under GTX 570 Rev.2
[17:08] <lukeyboy9559> how would i find out ?
[17:08] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: i don't think the edgers PPA is meant to affect that at all - you have presumably updated your package lists since though?
[17:08] <rubiksmomo> I did sudo apt-get update
[17:08] <daftykins> lukeyboy9559: just make up a flash drive of ubuntu 14.04.1 and boot it, that'd be the easiest way :>
[17:09] <lukeyboy9559> okay ill try that
[17:09] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: are you on trusty or utopic?
[17:09] <rubiksmomo> Trusty I think. 14.04
[17:09] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: ok so step one, remove the one via the additional drivers area
[17:10] <lukeyboy9559> ill do that and come back later :)
[17:10] <rubiksmomo> By choosing xorg driver?
[17:10] <daftykins> yeah just - none of the nvidia options
[17:10] <rubiksmomo> OK
[17:11] <rubiksmomo> Done. No proprietary drivers in use.
[17:11] <jin_baba> any place for newbies here?
[17:11] <daftykins> might need to reboot to go back to nouveau
[17:12] <daftykins> jin_baba: what are you after? this is the support channel for question asking.
[17:12] <rubiksmomo> I'll install updates and reboot
[17:13] <jin_baba> I am a windows user trying out linux for a change. Need to know if it supports any good games like AC3 etc
[17:14] <Snickerz> jin_baba: you can install steam
[17:14] <daftykins> jin_baba: yeah see Steam for an answer to that.
[17:14] <daftykins> quite honestly your idea of switching OS should not be about games :P
[17:15] <Snickerz> jin_baba: not all games are supported but they are supporting more games everyday because valve wants to base their steamOS on linux
[17:15] <jin_baba> lol yeah but I want a complete transition, don't want  going back to windows to play games :)
[17:15] <kavan> Guys I screwed up my /etc/apt/source.list, could one of you be so kind and upload a standard one?
[17:16] <rubiksmomo> daftykins: OK, X.org driver selected and rebooted. Newest Nvidia in "additional drivers" is 340.76. Could you please explain how to update to a newer one?
[17:16] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: install the package 'pastebinit' then run "apt-cache search nvidia- | pastebinit"
[17:17] <maps_> hello. I'm having trouble with RAID/LVM while installing ubuntu (server) in a HP N54L machine (server)… What do I do to wipe all drives and install only with partitioned drives instead of RAID or LVM?
[17:17] <rubiksmomo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10175687/
[17:19] <maps_> hello. I'm having trouble with RAID/LVM while installing ubuntu (server) in a HP N54L machine (server)… What do I do to wipe all drives and install only with partitioned drives instead of RAID or LVM?
[17:19] <Snickerz> maps_: you can use the drive manager that comes on the install disk
[17:20] <maps_> Snickerz: for? to delete all content on the drives before a new install?
[17:20] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: apt-get install nvidia-346
[17:21] <Snickerz> maps_: Yes, you can format the drives and partition them the wa you want
[17:21] <rubiksmomo> Installing. For some reason I lost audio. No sounds anymore. :o
[17:22] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: HDMI display with speakers or something?
[17:22] <rubiksmomo> No, 3.5mm connector on motherboard
[17:23] <daftykins> pass, i don't know audio
[17:23] <rubiksmomo> OK, that nvidia is installed. "Additional drivers" still shows X.org selected.
[17:23] <rubiksmomo> So am I using a new driver that supports GTX 960 now?
[17:24] <daftykins> did it pull in nvidia-settings as well?
[17:24] <daftykins> you're gonna want to stop paying attention to additional drivers ;)
[17:24] <maps_> Snickerz: my N54L has 3 HDDs, 250GB + 1TB + 1TB… I want 250GB for OS, 1TB for file sharing (Samba) and 1TB for postgresql databases… would you agree that I have no need for RAID/LVM with this setup?
[17:24] <daftykins> give it a restart, see if nvidia-settings is available to confirm it's active
[17:24] <ubuntu> Hello?
[17:24] <ubuntu> Is anyone there>
[17:25] <daftykins> Guest64153: yes, tonnes of people.
[17:25] <Guest64153> Hello!
[17:25] <daftykins> can we help you with something?
[17:25] <rubiksmomo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10175785/
[17:25] <Guest64153> I guess I didn't identify myself.
[17:25] <Guest64153> LOL
[17:25] <teward> Guest64153: if you have a support question and need help, you can ask your actual question.  That will allow us to try and assist, and ask for clarificatoin or additional questions if we have them.
[17:25] <Guest64153> But, I am brand NEW TO LINUX , and Ubuntu, specifically.
[17:26] <rubiksmomo> search finds "NVIDIA X Server Settings"
[17:26] <Guest64153> I didn't even know how to install Xchat, until just now; I was able to do it using the termjnal.
[17:26] <svetlana> Guest64153: welcome. use '/nick newnick' to pick a new nickname.
[17:26] <Guest64153> OK, teward.
[17:26] <steel767> what makes command "shopt -s dotglobe"?
[17:27] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: "apt-cache showpkg nvidia-settings" ?
[17:27] <t-dubs> awesome, swetlana!
[17:27] <jin_baba> do you use the same command to install each new software through command line?
[17:27] <t-dubs> Thanks bunches!
[17:27] <daftykins> jin_baba: apt-get install <packagename> yes
[17:27] <jin_baba> are package names unique?
[17:27] <rubiksmomo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10175789/
[17:28] <daftykins> jin_baba: of course, how else would you instal one thing instead of everything ever? :)
[17:28] <t-dubs> I was wondering if you guys could help me with using Startup Disk Creator..
[17:28] <bazhang> http://askubuntu.com/questions/397651/fish-shell-shopt-s-dotglob-analog steel767
[17:28] <Snickerz> maps_: As long as the drives are connected, you can access them within the filesystem and use them for whatever you need
[17:28] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: yep install nvidia-settings, then reboot into that new driver and run nvidia-settings to check out the driver status
[17:28] <t-dubs> I keep getting this error: first argument must be the method signature string: GLib.Variant('a{sv}', {})
[17:29] <jin_baba> I know that was a stupid question, sorry. What I should have asked is is there any resource that lists down all package names at one place?
[17:29] <daftykins> t-dubs: what OS are you on and what are you trying to do? put a newer ubuntu on a flash drive?
[17:29] <t-dubs> And, I googled it, but, I guess I'm just retarded, like the people over at puppy linux told me :(
[17:29] <rubiksmomo> nvidia-settings is already the newest version. Rebooting.
[17:29] <daftykins> jin_baba: apt-get update (updates your systems list of available packages from online) then apt-cache search x (searches for x)
[17:29] <t-dubs> I am running ubuntu, 12.4, I think.
[17:29] <steel767> bazhang: thanks
[17:30] <daftykins> t-dubs: so what are you trying to do? :)
[17:30] <t-dubs> No problem bazhang.
[17:30] <bazhang> steel767, more info try #bash
[17:30] <jin_baba> thanks @daftykins, you are very helpful
[17:30] <t-dubs> I am trying to make a bootable usb drive, as a back up; cause the one I'm currently yusing is getting beat up!
[17:31] <t-dubs> And, if it fails on me, I'd be SOL, atm.
[17:31] <daftykins> !manual | jin_baba as a new user you might want to have a read of this
[17:31] <gp5st> I have an empty partition before my boot partition.  Will it be a huge PITA to merge them (delete the one, move the boot partition down, and then resize the boot partition) or should I just format it and use it as a separate volume
[17:31] <maps_> Snickerz: thanks… I will give it another shot at this. I've been trying to get this up and running for the past month and half, and haven't had much success… getting tired of trying soon… but not giving up yet...
[17:31] <daftykins> gp5st: how big is it? share a screenshot on imgur.com maybe
[17:32] <bazhang> gp5st, no, use gparted
[17:32] <rubiksmomo> Rebooted. Audio is back! NVIDIA X Server Settings shows: driver version 346.35
[17:32] <daftykins> t-dubs: using 'dd' via the command line is a lot easier than messing around with these little GUI helper programs
[17:32] <gp5st> bazhang: I don't know why you said that because 1) I am 2) that's what gparted will do
[17:32] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: excellent, when the day comes you can just transplant card, boot up and it'll be as if nothing ever happened
[17:32] <gp5st> daftykins: the boot partition is ~170gb the unused is 30gb
[17:33] <daftykins> gp5st: ouch, that's quite wasteful. how'd you manage that? :)
[17:33] <gp5st> 40*
[17:33] <maps_> Snickerz: Can I format the 2x1TB drives without reinstalling Ubuntu Server? And 'remove/delete' LVM?
[17:33] <rubiksmomo> Thanks! Minor problem though. For some reason the last line started to flicker on XChat sometimes after updating the driver.
[17:33] <t-dubs> ok, datykins
[17:33] <bazhang> gp5st, you mean root I hope
[17:33] <t-dubs> SO, what do I do
[17:33] <t-dubs> Next
[17:33] <t-dubs> ??
[17:33] <daftykins> rubiksmomo: *shrug*
[17:34] <daftykins> t-dubs: given a downloaded ISO in your Downloads folder, pop the flash drive in and run "sudo parted -l" to show which device is your flash drive.
[17:34] <gp5st> bazhang: yes, thanks for the correction
[17:34] <t-dubs> I'm sorry, Im having trouble keeping up!
[17:34] <daftykins> t-dubs: (in the terminal application)
[17:34] <daftykins> t-dubs: it'll have a name like /dev/sdb
[17:34] <gp5st> daftykins: originally came with windows and wanted to keep it to play around if need be, it wouldn't boot for some reason and I couldn't fix it and kind of forgot ti was there until I started running low on space
[17:34] <daftykins> gp5st: ah then you're in for a hell of a time. i'd backup and reinstall personally
[17:34] <t-dubs> OK, will do now, daftykins!
[17:35] <gp5st> daftykins: http://i.imgur.com/TBpECGe.png
[17:36] <t-dubs> ok, daftykins  JUST ran udo parted -l in terminal
[17:36] <Snickerz> maps_: There is a disk utility that you can use to format the disk and yes you can remove lvm from my understanding of documentation
[17:36] <t-dubs> SO what am I looking for?
[17:36] <rubiksmomo> OK, good enough. I'll reboot to Windows and check Nvidia driver there. Thanks for the help!
[17:36] <daftykins> t-dubs: each device shows what size it is, hopefully you know how many GB your flash drive is
[17:36] <t-dubs> I'mreally sorry, I sufer from brain damage, due to an anoxicv brain injury
[17:37] <t-dubs> Yes, I know it's an 8 Gb drive
[17:37] <daftykins> so you should see a device called e.g. /dev/sdb with a size of 8xxxMB
[17:37] <daftykins> correct?
[17:37] <gp5st> daftykins: hmm, I don't really have the time to reinstall (always ends up being longer than I want because of this little weak I did and want back :-\) I might just format that partition and use it as a volume for some of the bulk data I'm toting around
[17:38] <t-dubs> OK, so, I have located the 8 Gb drive, daftykins, now what?
[17:39] <daftykins> t-dubs: so what's it called?
[17:39] <t-dubs> It is called USB 2.0 (SCSI)
[17:40] <t-dubs> Problem is,  I have TWO of them
[17:40] <daftykins> t-dubs: what you need to do, is run this lovely long command: "sudo dd if=/path/to/your/downloaded/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdx bs=2M" but obviously point if= to your downloaded file and of= to the device name of your flash drive (e.g. /dev/sdb)
[17:40] <t-dubs> GThe one I'm running ubuntu off of right now, AND the new one
[17:40] <daftykins> oh i see.
[17:40] <daftykins> i don't think you have enough space to download the ISO to put it on the other drive, then
[17:41] <t-dubs> Yeah, dude, It's complicated.
[17:41] <t-dubs> LOL like my relatonship status
[17:41] <t-dubs> LOL
[17:41] <daftykins> i suppose you were just hoping to clone it
[17:41] <t-dubs> It's complicated.
[17:41] <daftykins> ;]
[17:41] <t-dubs> I don't know, whatever's easier
[17:41] <Fernandooo> hi
[17:41] <daftykins> t-dubs: can you run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "sudo parted -l | pastebinit" ?
[17:41] <t-dubs> daftykins, is there a way i could just talk to YOU?
[17:41] <Fernandooo> to make all users in the system can access my oracle client installation the next line is ok ??:
[17:42] <t-dubs> Without evreryone else?
[17:42] <Fernandooo> chmod -R 775 /export/home/user/app/user/product/11.2.0/client_1
[17:42] <daftykins> t-dubs: not really, this allows everyone to see
[17:42] <t-dubs> LOL, I can run anything..
[17:42] <t-dubs> I am able to type into the terminal, aferall
[17:42] <t-dubs> ;)
[17:42] <daftykins> t-dubs: ok fire away with those two, it'll give a link to paste back to me
[17:43] <t-dubs> ok, dude, awesome, just give me asecond or two, ok?
[17:43] <daftykins> mmhmm
[17:44] <daftykins> at this point i'm pondering whether a live USB can be dd'd to another whilst it's booted :S
[17:44] <t-dubs> ok, dude, it's running
[17:44] <t-dubs> something or other
[17:44] <t-dubs> llool
[17:45] <t-dubs> ok, it's done
[17:45] <t-dubs> Both of them
[17:45] <daftykins> did it give you an address to paste here?
[17:45] <xchatter> Why is it that I have a different keyboard layout when logging into KDE than in a terminal or shell? Drives me nuts. I am on Kubuntu 14.10
[17:45] <t-dubs> So, what did oy want?
[17:45] <t-dubs> hmm..
[17:45] <t-dubs> let me see
[17:45] <daftykins> t-dubs: like http://paste...
[17:45] <xchatter> y and z are reversed
[17:46] <t-dubs> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main pastebinit?
[17:46] <t-dubs> Is that what you wanted?
[17:46] <daftykins> t-dubs: nah should've been after the second command,  "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"
[17:46] <Snickerz> exit
[17:47] <tunafish_> I can't add ed25519 keys to ssh-agent, anybody know a workaround?
[17:47] <sebsebseb> hi
[17:47] <daftykins> back in a few mins
[17:47] <t-dubs> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10175992/
[17:47] <daftykins> ah there you are
[17:47] <t-dubs> Yup, so, what is that a link to?
[17:48] <t-dubs> My Info?
[17:48] <daftykins> t-dubs: the command output showing your disks :)
[17:48] <daftykins> t-dubs: now i can see your two flash drives are /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc
[17:48] <t-dubs> lol
[17:48] <t-dubs> Awesome
[17:48] <daftykins> t-dubs: try this: "sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sdc bs=2M" it'll take a fair while, so leave it run
[17:49] <daftykins> back in a few, i need to step away
[17:49] <t-dubs> OK, I pasted that into the terminal
[17:49] <t-dubs> But, only one of the usb drives is flashing.
[17:49] <t-dubs> Is that what you expected to see>
[17:49] <t-dubs> ?
[17:49] <t-dubs> OK, daftykins
[17:50] <t-dubs> Thanks bunches for your help so far!
[17:50] <Guest77916> hello

[17:57] <tunafish_> anyone using gnome-keyring alternative? like keychain? I need it since gnome-keyring doesn't support ed25519
[17:57] <t-dubs> Yes, I did, but, daftykins is currently helping me wiht it!
[17:58] <t-dubs> I think..
[17:59] <t-dubs> He said he had to leave for a fewminutes, bvut that the last thing he t9ld me to run o9n terminawould take a while to complete..
[17:59] <t-dubs> And, he was't kidding one bit!
[17:59] <t-dubs> LOL
[18:01] <t-dubs> Soo, how is everyone doing right now?

[18:20] <t-dubs> Hey there, everyone?
[18:20] <steel767> ?
[18:20] <gla> hi
[18:20] <t-dubs> I think that operation that daftykins had me do is complete.
[18:21] <nrml1> anyone here use puppet?
[18:21] <BluesKaj> did dd return to the prompt ?
[18:21] <BluesKaj> t-dubs,^
[18:21] <t-dubs> Yes?
[18:22] <gla> i am facing dependency problems installing wine-staging from a ppa on ubuntu vivid, does someone can help me, i am not very good to solve these problems with ubuntu
[18:22] <BluesKaj> read above
[18:22] <t-dubs> I don't understand the question.
[18:22] <t-dubs> What is dd?
[18:23] <t-dubs> ??
[18:23] <daftykins> t-dubs: neat, time to shutdown and see if both boot fine
[18:23] <t-dubs> Oh, ok, then daftykins!
[18:23] <gla> and i really need latest wine to test some stuff
[18:23] <BluesKaj> t-dubs, what you pasted in thge terminal
[18:23] <t-dubs> Did you get my other messages, daftykins?
[18:24] <gla> any apt dependencies guru out there? :)
[18:24] <ObrienDave> gla, vivid support in #ubuntu+1
[18:24] <azzurra> hi, i've a problem to connecting my iPhone to ubuntu. i have bluetooth. Can you help me?
[18:24] <gla> ObrienDave: thank you!
[18:24] <t-dubs> Is that a question, Daftylns?
[18:24] <daftykins> t-dubs: yep i just got back to my computer now
[18:24] <t-dubs> Daftykins*
[18:24] <t-dubs> ?
[18:24] <daftykins> t-dubs: nah just a suggestion, go give them both a try :)
[18:25] <t-dubs> OK, Will do!
[18:25] <t-dubs> So, just to be clear, here, what I (hopefully) just did was create a mirror image of one stick to the other, right?
[18:27] <t-dubs>  daftykins?
[18:27] <t-dubs> you still there?
[18:28] <daftykins> t-dubs: cloned it, yes
[18:28] <Siente> Hello guys, why when I install ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS I can't connect to the inet?
[18:28] <K4k> Siente: Are you trying to use wireless or a wired network connection?
[18:29] <Siente> K4k, wired but dhcp it should be running automatically
[18:29] <Siente> I've never had to configure my inet before
[18:29] <K4k> Unless the installer does not see your network device. Can you connect to the network if you boot in to the live CD?
[18:30] <Siente> not sure
[18:30] <Siente> I have asus maximus vi hero mobo
[18:30] <gla> is there any way to apt show deep dependency tree for a package?
[18:31] <Pici> gla: not out the box. You can install the apt-redepends package to do that though.
[18:31] <daftykins> gla: as it what it depends on? apt-cache showpkg <package> or apt-cache policy <package>
[18:31] <Pici> gla: sorry, apt-rdepends
[18:31] <K4k> Siente: I believe that's one of the ones I had the same issue with. The driver for the network card on that motherboard is not in the original 14.04 ISO. Are you using 14.04 or 14.04.1?
[18:32] <daftykins> Siente: that uses the intel I217V gigabit LAN, should work just fine. check you have an interface beyond 'lo' from "ip a" in terminal
[18:32] <gla> daftykins: the first
[18:33] <K4k> Siente: oh, nevermind, don't listen to me... must have been using 12.04, not 14.04 when I had the issue :). See if it shows up under `ip a` in the live environment as daftykins suggested.
[18:33] <t-dubs> Hey, is daftykins here?
[18:33] <daftykins> yes
[18:33] <t-dubs> Hey there, dude!
[18:33] <t-dubs> It worked!
[18:33] <t-dubs> Thanks a lot, daftykins!
[18:34] <t-dubs> You have a bitcoin address, or anything like that?
[18:34] <t-dubs> I'd be happy t5o sends you some!
[18:34] <t-dubs> to send**
[18:34] <daftykins> t-dubs: nah we do this for free :) if you feel like donating to a project though, feel free to donate to www.kodi.tv on my behalf :)
[18:35] <t-dubs> aww, maan!!
[18:35] <t-dubs> OK..
[18:35] <Siente> K4k, daftykins and what if it shows up under ip a ?
[18:35] <t-dubs> Maybe nI will.. do they take bitcoiun?
[18:35] <daftykins> Siente: well i was hoping for an answer of yes or no.
[18:35] <Rapture> is it possible to have apt-get use a different port?
[18:36] <t-dubs> I have about 7 TH worth of min ing power humming away in the basement, daftykins!!
[18:36] <doubleaj> help
[18:36] <Siente> daftykins, what If I just install ubuntu 14.10 ?
[18:36] <t-dubs> Oh, yeah, dafty, i have another question
[18:36] <Siente> and what is the difference should I use 14.10 or 14.04.1 LTS?
[18:36] <t-dubs> If your up to helpiung me out, that is..
[18:36] <daftykins> t-dubs: crikey. looks like they only accept paypal
[18:37] <t-dubs> Yeah, that seems to be the goiung standard lol
[18:37] <daftykins> Siente: i wouldn't personally advise non-LTS. is there an interface or not? :P
[18:37] <t-dubs> Even tho one bitcoin is worth > $200
[18:37] <Siente> daftykins, I have to reboot my pc to check out
[18:37] <Siente> daftykins, one moment
[18:49] <Shoe14> Guys, i installed Lubuntu-desktop package group, and then i uninstalled it, but my lightdm greeter and splash screen didnt go away
[18:50] <Shoe14> do i just change the greeter?
[18:50] <Hardtail> how similar are unix based systems in terms of running commands and scripts, i.e., ubuntu and os x?
[18:51] <daftykins> Hardtail: is this for your homework? :) general chat in #linux please, only Ubuntu support here.
[18:51] <Shoe14> Hardtail: ery
[18:51] <bazhang> Hardtail, try in #bash
[18:51] <Shoe14> very
[18:52] <Shoe14> as long as they use the same shell, they are practically the same
[18:53] <Hardtail> no it's not daftykins but thanks I was going to ask about security and maintenance scripts but I will go there thx
[18:53] <Hardtail> thanks shoe14
[18:54] <daftykins> !info testdisk precise
[18:57] <Siente> daftykins, there?
[18:57] <daftykins> yep
[18:57] <Siente> daftykins, http://codepad.org/D9XTt2LN
[18:58] <daftykins> ok so eth0 might be the one, but it has no IP address. so either you're not plugged into the right thing at the other end - or it's not giving an IP by DHCP :)
[18:58] <Siente> daftykins, I have inet on my windows
[18:58] <daftykins> oh ok
[18:58] <Siente> and I only don't have inet on the ubuntu
[18:58] <daftykins> tried running "dhclient eth0" ?
[18:59] <Siente> no matter if it's 14.10 or 14.04
[18:59] <Siente> yes I tried it
[18:59] <daftykins> or generally playing around with network manager?
[18:59] <Siente> I am not sure how exactly to configure it was googling and trying several stuffs, but nothing happened
[19:00] <daftykins> Siente: you would select the wired connection, change the 'method' from DHCP to manual, then enter IP addressing info as per your home connection. you can get a copy of this from "ipconfig /all" in "cmd" on Windows
[19:01] <kanha> Hi
[19:01] <Siente> daftykins, okay, but why it's not configuring my network automatically?
[19:01] <daftykins> pass. bad driver maybe
[19:04] <vov_> hello everyone i have issue on aria2c but i can't find any channel for it . can you help me ?
[19:05] <daftykins> !alis | vov_ i have no idea what that is, but #ubuntu is not the freenode personal directory service
[19:07] <Siente> daftykins, okay thanks
[19:15] <saq> what is the go to 802.11ac wireless card for support under ubuntu? intel?
[19:17] <ZapMagnet> Good day, All.  This is my 1st use of IRCChat.  Pls forgive any initial edicate breaches.  Quick question on UbuntuStudio 14.04:  Switch User option greyed out.  Why, or where can I fix that?
[19:17] <bazhang> !studio | ZapMagnet
[19:18] <ZapMagnet> Thx.  I didn't see #ubuntustudio listed in the available nodes at left (I'm using (XChat).
[19:19] <kakashiAL> hello guys, I have an extern HD that has the ntfs format. I can add file in it in windows with no problems, but since a week I cant add files to that ntfs disk in ubuntu. If I put something in it finish 100% and says something like "input output error" or "loosed connection". I have to restart my disk
[19:19] <Shoe14> guys
[19:19] <daftykins> saq: best to look online
[19:19] <bazhang> just as an aside ZapMagnet you should consider hexchat, the maintained and still developed version of xchat
[19:19] <Shoe14> how can i strip down my ubuntu install?
[19:19] <kakashiAL> after that I can read it, but still cant save on it, because after 100% it aborts
[19:19] <saq> daftykins: i have been, what i find is people lamenting the fact that such and such isnt supported
[19:20] <saq> and then that it is
[19:20] <bekks> Shoe14: In what way?
[19:20] <saq> and then that it isnt
[19:20] <daftykins> kakashiAL: give it a chkdsk on Windows to make sure it's happy
[19:20] <saq> snapshots in time
[19:20] <kakashiAL> daftykins: I did it
[19:20] <bazhang> shoe14 use the mini iso and build up instead
[19:20] <daftykins> saq: yeah, i would doubt you'd see a -ac adapter working full speed right now
[19:20] <bazhang> !mini | Shoe14
[19:20] <kakashiAL> daftykins: no errors, and in windows it works like a rocket, very fast, very responsive
[19:20] <kakashiAL> in ubuntu it take some time until it mounts
[19:20] <daftykins> kakashiAL: are you relying on auto mounts, or manual?
[19:20] <kakashiAL> daftykins: auto
[19:20] <daftykins> USB 3 port or 2?
[19:21] <daftykins> or internal
[19:21] <kakashiAL> usb 2 (but it worked)
[19:21] <daftykins> alright, run "dmesg | tail" before plugging it in, then run it again after and share the output with us via http://paste.ubuntu.com
[19:21] <Shoe14> bekks, bazhang : i want my installation to be like ubuntu server/mini, but i have already installed ubuntu and i cant install another OS, because my laptop doesnt support USB booting and i have to manually install it by connecting my laptop hdd to desktop
[19:21] <Shoe14> so i want to strip it down
[19:22] <Shoe14> i made the mistake of installing ubuntu instead of ubunt server
[19:22] <ZapMagnet> ThkU bazhang, I'll add to my list of Things to do relating Ubuntu.
[19:22] <Shoe14> and being used to using arch on desktop, i dont like it.
[19:22] <dreamcat4> Shoe14: you could fire up gparted and re-partition your existing HDD drive
[19:22] <ZapMagnet> XChat was part of the UbuntuStudio distro.
[19:23] <dreamcat4> Shoe14: or you can re-install another linux over the existing ubuntu-desktop partitions
[19:23] <dragonmantank> I have a AMD A10-7700K with the built-in APU, but I use an nVidia GTX750 as my actual display. Is there a way I can boot the live CD/USB and direct it to use the nVidia card instead? Currently when it boots it goes to the onboard video which doesn't have anything plugged into it.
[19:23] <daftykins> dreamcat4: what does repartitioning have to do with installing the wrong image? :)
[19:23] <Shoe14> dreamcat4: thats the thing: i cant install. USB booting isnt supported.
[19:24] <Shoe14> and i would chroot and install, but i dont know how to fdo so fo ubuntu
[19:24] <Shoe14> s/fo/for
[19:24] <daftykins> !chroot
[19:24] <daftykins> now you do :)
[19:24] <kakashiAL> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10177074/
[19:25] <Shoe14> ubottu: i can chroot haha, i just dont know how to install ubuntu using the command line
[19:25] <dreamcat4> Shoe14: if you installed grub2, you can put the server .iso file on your HDD somewhere, and create an ISO boot entry in grub2 boot menu file
[19:25] <daftykins> kakashiAL: hmm, i don't have a clue what any of that relates to. so now that it's mounted, how does it operate? can't even paste on a small file?
[19:25] <Shoe14> dreamcat4: hmm, that sounds good. cheers :D
[19:26] <dreamcat4> Shoe14: np. BTW you can install and run gparted from ubuntu destop too (you just need to apt-get install gparted first)
[19:27] <Shoe14> i can partition haha, both from shell and gui
[19:27] <kakashiAL> daftykins: I am trying to put a folder that is 300mb big to that ntfs disk, after I finish the copy process this windows appears
[19:27] <kakashiAL> https://paste.xinu.at/o4B0/
[19:27] <kakashiAL> I will translate
[19:28] <daftykins> kakashiAL: that's ok i read a little German
[19:29] <kakashiAL> "error while creating the folder. the programm caused the disconnect. do you want to skip?"
[19:29] <daftykins> hmm, tell you what unmount the disk but leave it plugged in - then mount it manually via terminal and see if it works ok
[19:29] <kakashiAL> tried it in windows again, it works like a champ!
[19:30] <kakashiAL> daftykins: could you help me?
[19:30] <daftykins> kakashiAL: sure, first "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "sudo parted -l | pastebinit" and "mount | pastebinit"
[19:31] <kakashiAL> thanks bro
[19:32] <daftykins> that'll give me the info on where to start
[19:32] <kakashiAL> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10177146/
[19:33] <kakashiAL> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10177160/
[19:33] <daftykins> oh, it's not showing up the other disk anymore
[19:33] <daftykins> did it spin down after unmounting?
[19:33] <kakashiAL> daftykins: yep, nothing is mounted yet
[19:33] <daftykins> yeah but parted shows even unmounted disks
[19:34] <kakashiAL> wait
[19:34] <kakashiAL> now its unmounted but I can mount it via desktop, I wont do that I rewrite the commands daftykins
[19:35] <kakashiAL> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10177179/
[19:35] <daftykins> aaah there it is
[19:35] <kakashiAL> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10177180/
[19:36] <daftykins> kakashiAL: try "sudo mkdir /media/disk && sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /media/disk"
[19:36] <daftykins> should complete with no error
[19:37] <kakashiAL> yes, no error
[19:37] <daftykins> kakashiAL: "ls -al /media/disk | pastebinit"
[19:40] <kakashiAL> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10177201/
[19:40] <daftykins> ok that's root owned, bleh
[19:41] <EriC^^> use sudo to copy the files
[19:41] <daftykins> i was gonna remount with -o thing_i_can't_remember :D
[19:41] <daftykins> but yeah that'd work
[19:42] <EriC^^> remount,uid=1000,gid=1000 ?
[19:42] <kakashiAL> daftykins: so I cant copy and it aborts because I copy files as a normal user and not as a root?
[19:42] <daftykins> kakashiAL: yeah, permissions issue right now
[19:42] <EriC^^> it's worth a shot if you want
[19:42] <shdwsincmmxii> hello everybody :)
[19:42] <kakashiAL> how can I change it, I mean to give all users access?
[19:43] <EriC^^> kakashiAL: i guess all users can, it's mounted rwx for others
[19:43] <daftykins> kakashiAL: "sudo mount -o remount,uid=1000,gid=1000 /media/disk" if i read EriC^^ correctly
[19:44] <daftykins> but i'm not sure
[19:44] <EriC^^> me neither
[19:44] <EriC^^> :D
[19:44] <daftykins> i'd have said unmount then rerun as i'm not too hot on that syntax
[19:44] <kakashiAL> hmm...
[19:45] <EriC^^> kakashiAL: it won't harm anything, if you want to try it out give it a shot
[19:45] <EriC^^> kakashiAL: just out of curiosity, otherwise you can go ahead and copy everything or modify whatever if you want, it's mounted rwx anyways
[19:45] <kakashiAL> EriC^^, daftykins: I have an idea and I try something out
[19:46] <EriC^^> kakashiAL: what's the idea?
[19:47] <delt> Hello
[19:47] <kakashiAL> I am using thunar, and I saw the rights of each folder (right click on the folder, rights) there I can read: "owner: root(root), Group: root"   I change that to my user name, not my disk is working
[19:48] <delt> where can i get the manpages for Xrender functions, is there a package i can install for that?
[19:49] <delt> manpages-dev is already the newest version.
[19:50] <EriC^^> kakashiAL: you can't change it from there, you'd need to open thunar with elevated privileges
[19:51] <EriC^^> kakashiAL: if you want you can type sudo chown -R <youruser>: /media/disk
[19:51] <OmegaOne> what are the benefits of being drunk?
[19:52] <bekks> OmegaOne: How is that related to Ubuntu? :)
[19:52] <EriC^^> kakashiAL: again, it's not needed, everybody has rwx on the files
[19:52] <kakashiAL> EriC^^: did that via "gksu thunar" :)
[19:52] <daftykins> kakashiAL: sounds good \o/
[19:52] <daftykins> kakashiAL: let us know if the copy works out any better, now
[19:52] <EriC^^> kakashiAL: ok :)
[19:52] <OmegaOne> ubuntu = puke after hangover
[19:53] <bekks> OmegaOne: Do you have a Ubuntu related support question?
[19:53] <kakashiAL> EriC^^: its okay if anyone have the rights
[19:53] <kakashiAL> daftykins: I will thanks daftykins and EriC^^
[19:53] <EriC^^> OmegaOne: obviously you've never been drunk, nobody pukes after a hangover
[19:53] <OmegaOne> EriC^^, well on my birthday i got drunk and had a bad hangover and puked
[19:54] <kakashiAL> EriC^^, daftykins: thats harddisk belongs to a friend, he uses ntfs but what is the best partition for sharing cross platforms?
[19:55] <daftykins> kakashiAL: depends how they're accessed really, i'd probably say NTFS is the easiest - maybe exFAT depending on the device type
[19:56] <kakashiAL> lets hope microsoft will support btrfs
[19:56] <bekks> kakashiAL: They never will.
[19:56] <bekks> kakashiAL: They havent supported opensource filesystems for three decades, they wont start now :)
[19:57] <kakashiAL> bekks: they will support docker, since I know that I have hope
[19:57] <bekks> kakashiAL: You've misread that. They support docker containers in their Azure cloud.
[19:58] <afroman> hello. I tried to decrypt my home folder, now I can't login again to my username. help plz
[19:59] <kakashiAL> bekks: wow, imagination destroyed
[20:00] <kakashiAL> btw: will the new LTS have mir?
[20:01] <blib> any ideas on how to fix this apt-get dist-upgrade problem -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10177464/
[20:01] <daftykins> new LTS is in 2016, so that'll take some time :)
[20:02] <daftykins> blib: that is not an officially supported device since that is an ARM thing, try #ubuntu-arm
[20:02] <daftykins> those are not official repos though
[20:02] <daftykins> so can't really help here.
[20:05] <afroman> hello. I tried to decrypt my home folder, now I can't login again to my username. I even tried to del the user so that I create it again, but I keep getting a message saying that it is in user. help plz
[20:06] <alessio1> ciao
[20:06] <EriC^^> afroman: why are you manually decrypting the home dir?
[20:08] <ljunggren> Hi, i have got Windows8 installed on my pc right now abut want ubuntu instead. Right now i have an SSD /dev/sdb and a regular hdd /dev/sda, windows is installed on my ssd /dev/sdb but there is a windows 8 loader installed on a partiotion on /dev/sda. Can i safely chose the option "replace windows 8 with ubuntu" ? I just want ubuntu installed on my SDB and leave my SDA alone
[20:08] <EriC^^> ljunggren: yeah, and choose the bootloader to be installed on SDB, and choose it in the bios to be booted
[20:08] <daftykins> ljunggren: easiest way? remove the HDD and install to the SSD alone first, right now installing is going to affect sda
[20:09] <daftykins> or do as EriC^^ said ^
[20:09] <daftykins> i prefer pulling drives to be 100% safe 8D
[20:09] <afroman> EriC^^: during the installation, ubuntu asks if U want to encrypt your home folder. which in return disable the auto log in
[20:10] <ljunggren> Oh but EriC^^ will i have the option to install the loader on sdb if i chose "Replace Windows 8 with Ubuntu" or must i chose "something else" and set up my partitions myself?
[20:10] <EriC^^> ljunggren: you'd have to choose something else, i'd do what daftykins suggested
[20:10] <gurris> Hi, just did a simulated install of  xserver-xorg-lts-utopic on trusty, however it removes a lot of fundamental packages I need, gnome-shell included. Is the LTS update also delayed?
[20:10] <ljunggren> :(
[20:11] <EriC^^> ljunggren: is it hard to remove it?
[20:11] <ljunggren> EriC^^: well yes, i have my pc in a cabine with lock so my kids wont destroy it lol. They are asleep so i figured this would be my time to install ubuntu..
[20:11] <EriC^^> ljunggren: before you choose to install ubuntu, open a terminal and type udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sda
[20:12] <ljunggren> Guess i just do it some other time
[20:12] <EriC^^> then type sudo parted -l and make sure it's not listed
[20:12] <ljunggren> EriC^^: oh and i cant acess my disks, since windows locks them somehow
[20:12] <ljunggren> windows has this "fastboot" stuff
[20:12] <EriC^^> hmm?
[20:12] <ljunggren> ill try
[20:12] <daftykins> you can turn off fastboot, but if you're just nuking the disk it really doesn't matter
[20:12] <EriC^^> ljunggren: log into windows and restart instead of shutting down, that will not get it to hibernate
[20:13] <ljunggren> Ah okey
[20:13] <ljunggren> EriC^^: what will happen  to the "windows 8 loader" partition that is on my sda? nothing right? Wont my bios try to load windows but fail ?
[20:14] <EriC^^> ljunggren: if you have uefi, then it's probably an efi partition, ubuntu will create a new entry in the efibootmgr and it's own efi partition in sdb
[20:14] <ljunggren> daftykins: how do i know if they are hypernated?
[20:14] <ljunggren> EriC^^: i don't think i have efi
[20:14] <ata_> Hello, is this channel just for technical support? Who do I need to talk to about Ubuntu sdk
[20:15] <Pici> ata_: #ubuntu-app-devel would be a good place to start.
[20:15] <EriC^^> ljunggren: if the disk is turned off during the installation, then the installer will install grub to sdb, your bios will have to be set to boot sdb first
[20:15] <ata_> Okey thank you
[20:16] <ljunggren> EriC^^: well that sounds good enough!
[20:16] <ljunggren> EriC^^: will ubuntu be bothered by my sda being a ntfs drive?
[20:16] <EriC^^> is there data on sda?
[20:16] <ljunggren> I don't really care if that disk is blasted EriC^^
[20:16] <EriC^^> ok cool
[20:16] <EriC^^> no, it wont
[20:17] <ljunggren> I just dont want ubuntu installed on it, i want it installed on SSD for speed
[20:17] <EriC^^> you can store media and other stuff and use it in ubuntu
[20:17] <ljunggren> Nice
[20:17] <ljunggren> Then off i go
[20:18] <nrml1> any of you ever done automated linux vm installs?
[20:18] <ljunggren> hey EriC^^  just one more question.. i only got a 64gb SSD.. will every app i install like steam etc take up place on my sdb?
[20:18] <nrml1> Got several hundred servers I gotta rip and replace lol
[20:18] <ljunggren> Because somehow i don't think my 64gb will last long
[20:19] <diphtherial> hey, so i have a folder that i currently own and i'd like another user on the same machine to be able to access/edit it
[20:19] <daftykins> ljunggren: you would want to resize NTFS on your mechanical disk, make an EXT4 partition and mount the steam storage path there, if you intend to play games
[20:19] <diphtherial> what's the easiest way to do that? should i create a group that contains us both and then change the group ownership of the directory to that?
[20:19] <EriC^^> ljunggren: what daftykins said
[20:19] <daftykins> diphtherial: yep
[20:19] <diphtherial> daftykins: ah, heh. thanks for the sanity check :)
[20:19] <ljunggren> daftykins: i didnt really follow
[20:20] <daftykins> diphtherial: obviously the group permissions as well as ownership, if you want the other to read or write
[20:20] <diphtherial> daftykins: right
[20:20] <daftykins> ljunggren: lets say Steam saves to /home/username/steam/gameshere - i would mount that path to a partition on the mechanical disk off-SSD to save space
[20:20] <ljunggren> EriC^^: your command to power off the drive failed "no usb device"
[20:20] <ljunggren> daftykins: how is that possible?
[20:21] <EriC^^> ljunggren: ubuntu works well with 20gb as a root partition, apps and such will be installed there, as for your personal files i guess it's up to your usage, using the hdd as a separate /home partition or an extra ext4 partition for other files is a good idea
[20:21] <daftykins> ljunggren: maybe you should start with getting ubuntu on first ;)
[20:21] <ljunggren> daftykins: oh i tought i had to do this during the install
[20:21] <diphtherial> is there a similar situation with adding groups like there is with adduser vs. useradd?
[20:21] <ljunggren> nvm then
[20:21] <EriC^^> ljunggren: ah, my bad, i guess you can only power off ext usb drives
[20:22] <diphtherial> i'm looking at the groupadd command, not sure if that's the "high-level" one
[20:22] <daftykins> EriC^^: you might still be able to via hdparm, dunno
[20:22] <ljunggren> IS there  a way to know which drive ubuntu will be installed on when chosing "replace" ?
[20:22] <EriC^^> daftykins: oh ok
[20:22] <daftykins> ljunggren: just don't, use manual partitioning to avoid trouble
[20:23] <ljunggren> daftykins: figured as much, ive never done a sucessfull install while doing my own partitioning thou
[20:23] <daftykins> ljunggren: well, coupled with a live session and imgur.com to share screenshots - all is safe \o/
[20:23] <ljunggren> daftykins: hah :)
[20:24] <ljunggren> im in live session now daftykins
[20:24] <daftykins> ljunggren: well, prior to running the installer i would dd zero the first 100MB of the SSD so it's free of windows 8 traces
[20:24] <daftykins> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=2M count=50
[20:24] <ljunggren> I will have to guess thou, the install will throw me an error
[20:25] <ljunggren> because of what you said earlier with the hypernated drives
[20:25] <daftykins> not if you nuke it first as i say ^
[20:25] <ljunggren> daftykins: there i done it
[20:26] <daftykins> you might want to quit and re-open the installer at this point
[20:26] <ljunggren> daftykins: yeah okey
[20:27] <ljunggren> daftykins: a shame i can't resize installer windows and get my whole scheme in one screenshot
[20:28] <daftykins> ljunggren: if you choose 'something else' in the installer you should get a screen like this where at the bottom, you get to choose /dev/sdb for the bootloader (GRUB) - http://s2.postimg.org/ririvoxhi/Screenshot_Install.png
[20:29] <ljunggren> daftykins: http://imgur.com/RKRiJzr
[20:29] <diphtherial> ok, so when i create new files it seems that i'm both the owner and group for that file
[20:29] <diphtherial> there isn't some way to specify for a directory that all subdirs/files belong to some group, is there?
[20:31] <EriC^^> diphtherial: chmod g+s
[20:31] <EriC^^> set the dir's group to whatever you want the files to have
[20:31] <ljunggren> daftykins: should i do something with ethe 100mb windows loader partition on sda? or just leave it?
[20:32] <daftykins> ljunggren: leave it for now, so you need to select partitions on sdb and change that bottom dropdown to sdb too
[20:32] <ljunggren> daftykins: the only thing i have dont right now is select sdb in the dropdown right now. can i click next?
[20:32] <ljunggren> done*
[20:33] <daftykins> ljunggren: no... you need to create some partitions on /dev/sdb :)
[20:33] <ljunggren> daftykins: i thought that was the next step lol
[20:33] <daftykins> ljunggren: click on /dev/sdb in the white box, then select to create a new partition table
[20:34] <ljunggren> daftykins: yeah ok done
[20:35] <ljunggren> daftykins: should i select "format" also perhaps?
[20:35] <daftykins> ljunggren: now you need to create a root partition (mount point: /) of type EXT4 with enough space left over for a swap partition after it. ideally that'll be exactly the size of your RAM
[20:35] <daftykins> you haven't got any partitions to format yet :)
[20:35] <ljunggren> lol
[20:35] <ljunggren> ok
[20:35] <afroman> EriC^^: sorry lost connection. Did U reply?
[20:36] <ljunggren> daftykins: so i got 64gb ssd, how should i place it? 8gb swap since my ram is 8gb?
[20:36] <ljunggren> Root something like 20gb?
[20:36] <EriC^^> afroman: sorry can you remind me
[20:37] <EriC^^> afroman: nevermind saw what you said
[20:37] <daftykins> ljunggren: personally, i would only put / and swap on that SSD, 64GB is tiny. i suppose you could make a /home too, but it might cause trouble in the future
[20:37] <EriC^^> afroman: during the installation you didnt choose to encrypt your home dir?
[20:37] <afroman> EriC^^: ok
[20:37] <daftykins> ljunggren: the best way i've seen to handle systems with SSDs and HDDs, is to symlink ~/Media folders onto the hard disk, so that /home with all the .config folders stay on the fast SSD
[20:37] <ljunggren> so i would take 8gb swap and the rest to / ?
[20:37] <daftykins> ljunggren: yep
[20:38] <afroman> EriC^^: no I choose to encrypt
[20:38] <jayjo> I'm working on a remote server, is there a way to enable git to have sudo power so I don't have to sudo every git command I run?
[20:39] <EriC^^> afroman: ok, why did you manually decrypt it? it's supposed to decrypt when you login i think
[20:39] <daftykins> jayjo: sudo -i first, just don't do anything stupid whilst root ;)
[20:39] <daftykins> jayjo: or -s, see "man sudo" for more
[20:39] <jayjo> daftykins: ok, thanks
[20:39] <EriC^^> afroman: dont tell me you want it encrypted with autologin? :P
[20:40] <ljunggren> daftykins: 56gb / and 8gb swap. Can i press next?
[20:40] <daftykins> ljunggren: give me a screenshot to confirm, with the white box scrolled to the bottom. use alt+print-screen to take just the installer window :)
[20:40] <afroman> EriC^^: no :). I wanted to be able to auto login. so I had to remove the encryption
[20:40] <ljunggren> daftykins: swap is "logic" ?
[20:40] <EriC^^> afroman: oh ok :)
[20:41] <daftykins> ljunggren: i don't really understand the question
[20:41] <daftykins> logical drive?
[20:41] <EriC^^> afroman: so you decrypted the dir, did you make another user and copy the files there?
[20:41] <ljunggren> daftykins: when i shall create the swap, it have a choice "primary" or "logical"
[20:41] <daftykins> ljunggren: ah i see, primary is fine for both swap and /
[20:41] <afroman> EriC^^: http://www.howtogeek.com/116179/how-to-disable-home-folder-encryption-after-installing-ubuntu/
[20:42] <afroman> EriC^^: I used this method
[20:42] <ljunggren> daftykins:  http://imgur.com/TlXE6Fk
[20:43] <ljunggren> daftykins: this is the newest http://imgur.com/7B3BZEj
[20:43] <daftykins> ljunggren: looks good to me, just remember you'll need to change your boot order in BIOS/EFI after
[20:43] <ljunggren> daftykins: i will try to remember that
[20:43] <ljunggren> i just click next now
[20:43] <daftykins> yep
[20:44] <daftykins> ljunggren: what langauge is that by the way? :)
[20:44] <ljunggren> daftykins: swedish
[20:44] <rus> quit
[20:44] <afroman> EriC^^: still there?
[20:44] <ReinH> What would be the best way to run a script at some fixed time after a system boots? Upstart task that uses at?
[20:44] <daftykins> ah-ha :)
[20:44] <ReinH> But then I have to wait for at to be started, right?
[20:44] <EriC^^> afroman: ok, did you do the sudo rm -rf ...../.ecryptfs command?
[20:45] <afroman> EriC^^: yep
[20:45] <EriC^^> ok, when you login what happens
[20:45] <rus> wassup everybody!
[20:45] <ljunggren> daftykins: hey, i planned on doing a little gaming. Does 14.10 comes with newer fglxr drivers than 14.01 ? because i chose LTS because stability
[20:45] <rus> dont think so, not sure though
[20:45] <afroman> EriC^^: nothing... I see the splash for a sec, then returns to the login screen
[20:46] <ljunggren> hey rus
[20:46] <rus> Hey man
[20:46] <daftykins> !info fglrx trusty
[20:46] <daftykins> !info fglrx-updates trusty
[20:46] <EriC^^> afroman: ok, login using the other account you created, open a terminal and type ls -ld /home/<your user>/.Xauthority
[20:46] <afroman> EriC^^: however the tempuser works fine
[20:47] <ljunggren> Ah it's the same packages, i planned on installing from website anyhow thanks EriC^^
[20:47] <daftykins> ljunggren: ^ not sure if those version numbers seem accurate, if you wanted newer you could go to AMD direct. depends on the card
[20:47] <ljunggren> daftykins: yeah that is what im planning. Another headache heh
[20:47] <daftykins> good ol' AMD :)
[20:47] <afroman> EriC^^: root????
[20:47] <ljunggren> I chose the wrong card...
[20:48] <ljunggren> daftykins: planning on buying a 770 or a 970 thou. Hope its good enough for Linux  in some 1080p gaming
[20:48] <EriC^^> afroman: type ls -l /home/user/ , are other files owned by root too or tempuser?
[20:48] <lnxuser> hi all!
[20:48] <mas886> Hi
[20:48] <daftykins> ljunggren: depends on the game i guess, no idea here
[20:48] <afroman> EriC^^: all root
[20:48] <EriC^^> afroman: i think you missed the -p in the first sudo cp -rp /home/user /home/user.backup
[20:48] <lnxuser> steam on ubuntu 14.04 64bit work?
[20:48] <ljunggren> daftykins: yeah nothing fancy. is there a wiki on the ssd symlink stuff you talked about earlier? would be nice to set it up
[20:49] <EriC^^> afroman: or you did a sudo cp later instead of moving them
[20:49] <ljunggren> lnxuser: sure hope, instlaling 14.04 right now
[20:49] <EriC^^> ( moving them keeps the permissions )
[20:49] <mas886> One question, could someone say me a good electronical circuit simulator for ubuntu?
[20:49] <EriC^^> afroman: anyways type sudo chown -R <youruser>: /home/user ( note the : is important )
[20:49] <daftykins> ljunggren: not that i know of. symlinks are pretty basic, but you'll need to look at resizing your NTFS partitions on the other disk first
[20:49] <ReinH> I guess I can sleep in a @reboot in a crontab
[20:50] <ReinH> That seems simplest.
[20:50] <daftykins> ljunggren: i think booting and fully updating this clean install will be step #1 :)
[20:50] <lnxuser> steam not working since yesterday
[20:51] <ljunggren> daftykins: yes indeed
[20:51] <mas886> One question, could some one say me a good electronical circuit simulator for ubuntu? I tried ubuntu but alot of components are missing.
[20:51] <ljunggren> daftykins:  i chose update during install so lets just make it bootin
[20:51] <mas886> I tried oregano*
[20:51] <mas886> sorry
[20:52] <afroman> EriC^^: awesome
[20:52] <daftykins> ljunggren: ;) that was brave
[20:53] <afroman> EriC^^: let me give it a try, brb
[20:53] <EriC^^> ok
[20:53] <ljunggren> daftykins: i always check that box.. is it known for causing trouble?
[20:53] <daftykins> i've seen a lot of drama yeah
[20:53] <ljunggren> wops
[20:53] <daftykins> no matter though, we'll see what happens
[20:53] <ljunggren> yeah haha
[20:57] <Mtik1> hello
[20:57] <ljunggren> daftykins: time for reboot, cya on the flipside
[20:57] <Mtik1> i share my Wifi internet throught ethernet with this methode
[20:57] <Mtik1> http://askubuntu.com/questions/359856/share-wireless-internet-connection-through-ethernet
[20:58] <Mtik1> How can i enable DHCP server on Ethernet?
[20:58] <szlobizoli> Hi! Is hier somebody, who would help me to choose the right distrib?
[20:58] <daftykins> Mtik1: it should be auto already
[20:59] <Mtik1> daftykins after sharing internet throught
[20:59] <daftykins> szlobizoli: this channel is for Ubuntu support, you can chat in #linux to pick a distribution
[20:59] <Mtik1> on etrhernet is IP: 10.42.0.1
[20:59] <daftykins> Mtik1: correct
[20:59] <Mtik1> broadcast address: 10.42.0.255
[20:59] <rus> me &2
[20:59] <Mtik1> but on clients
[20:59]  * rus &2
[20:59] <Mtik1> i need manual set iP
[20:59] <szlobizoli> Thanks! All good!)
[21:00] <Mtik1> i want enable dhcp on ethernet ubuntu
[21:00] <Mtik1> daftykins how?
[21:00] <ljunggren> daftykins: up and running :)
[21:00] <daftykins> \o/
[21:00] <ljunggren> daftykins: :D:D
[21:01] <daftykins> that was painless, good job
[21:01] <ljunggren> daftykins: it booted so fast i didnt even got a chance to get worried
[21:01] <ljunggren> daftykins: i had to chose ubuntu in the grubmenu thou.. can that menu be disabled since i wont have any use for it?
[21:02] <daftykins> ljunggren: might be worth checking if it has a timeout in seconds it reaches before it boots auto
[21:02] <EriC^^> ljunggren: type sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[21:02] <ljunggren> daftykins: so, now to my other issue... my sda is still "hypernated" or something because i dont have permission to access it
[21:02] <daftykins> Mtik1: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/dhcp.html
[21:03] <EriC^^> ljunggren: add a # before GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT , then save with ctrl+o and sudo update-grub
[21:03] <afroman> EriC^^: thx a lot, U r awesome. it works fine, even the auto login :)
[21:03] <afroman> how did I miss that?
[21:03] <ljunggren> EriC^^: it says 0 in hidden timeout
[21:03] <EriC^^> afroman: great :)
[21:03] <ljunggren> but 10 in actual timeout
[21:03] <ljunggren> GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
[21:03] <EriC^^> ljunggren: add a # before GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT
[21:04] <ljunggren> oh ok
[21:04] <ljunggren> EriC^^: there already is a # there
[21:04] <ljunggren> what about the GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
[21:04] <EriC^^> ljunggren: ah, try removing it
[21:05] <lnxuser> hi all
[21:05] <ljunggren> EriC^^: try remove what? the # before GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT? or the GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 ?
[21:06] <EriC^^> the # before GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT
[21:06] <lnxuser> you working steam?
[21:06] <ljunggren> ok
[21:06] <ljunggren> How can i access my sda now? it says i don't have permission do acess it
[21:06] <EriC^^> ljunggren: you can't mount it in nautilus?
[21:06] <ljunggren> EriC^^: no
[21:06] <ljunggren> there is a long error message
[21:07] <cmullinax> Any here able to walk through advantages to having TRIM run at boot for a laptop vs. a cron job?
[21:08] <ljunggren> "The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shtdown Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting) or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option" daftykins , EriC^^
[21:08] <EriC^^> ljunggren: nuke the partition table like earlier and make new ntfs or ext4 partitions
[21:09] <ljunggren> EriC^^: heh, just nuke sda from gparted then? will i have permission to do it?
[21:09] <EriC^^> yeah
[21:10] <daftykins> is it really still called sda even now 0o
[21:10] <daftykins> cmullinax: waste of time, anything else? :)
[21:10] <ljunggren> daftykins: yes
[21:11] <ubuntunewb> Hello, is this the right channel if I have a question regarding Ubuntu?
[21:11] <daftykins> yes
[21:12] <daftykins> ubuntunewb: ask away, with detail, on one line
[21:12] <ljunggren> snap, to nuke my 500gb disk takes 2HOURS?!
[21:12] <n1cky> hey i just converted my arch linux install to ubuntu, everything went very smoothly
[21:12] <daftykins> ljunggren: er, how are you doing it?
[21:12] <EriC^^> ljunggren: noo, delete the partition table and create a new one
[21:13] <realBigfoot> does anyone know how to install gnome-shell ?
[21:13] <ljunggren> EriC^^: i was trying in the "disk" app?
[21:13] <ubuntunewb> I want to setup KVM on Trusty Thar 14.04 and I don`t find any good / complete guide online. I have single IPs on different networks (different broadcast, gateway) and I don`t get how to build that "bridge" network interface, do I need an own bridge for each IP of each subnet?
[21:13] <n1cky> anyone know how I can fix the keyboard layout? i accidently selected US interenational when i installed
[21:13] <n1cky> i don´t have a gui.
[21:13] <EriC^^> ljunggren: no, use gparted, sudo apt-get install gparted
[21:13] <ljunggren> lol thanks
[21:14] <mas886> 3
[21:14] <EriC^^> realBigfoot: sudo apt-get install gnome-shell or ubuntu-gnome-desktop
[21:14] <realBigfoot> Thanks ;)
[21:14] <svetlana> n1cky: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-data"
[21:14] <mas886> I don't know why do I even ask anything here, if you just ignore the questions, then you will know why isn't your system more extended.
[21:14] <EriC^^> np
[21:15] <svetlana> n1cky: i suspect, i'm not sure
[21:15] <ljunggren> WOHO
[21:15] <ljunggren> its done
[21:15] <hexafluoride> A. L'mao
[21:15] <n1cky> thank you svetlana, installing that package fixed it.
[21:15] <ljunggren> now gotta reboot again, cya
[21:16] <svetlana> n1cky: you're welcome.
[21:16] <NikolaiToryzin> hexafluoride: Please don't troll.
[21:17] <hexafluoride> fag
[21:17] <ubuntunewb> anyone? basically I already know the CPU supports vmx and its enabled in the BIOS, so it should work. Basically my question is about "network configuration". Can I add IPs from different subnets to one network interface?
[21:18] <daftykins> ubuntunewb: well, they wouldn't be able to get online if you mix subnets on one interface
[21:18] <daftykins> ubuntunewb: this is more networking theory than OS support
[21:18] <ljunggren> there EriC^^ and daftykins . I now got a clean ubuntu install with everything working! thank you both for your support
[21:19] <EriC^^> no problem :)
[21:19] <daftykins> ljunggren: ^ :)
[21:21] <ljunggren> lnxuser: hi, are you having trouble with steam?
 Yes not started
[21:24] <Justin__> Is okay that I tar gunzip a group of files that includes an already tar.gz file? Am I causing harm in this sitation?
[21:24] <bipul> Hello anyone around?
[21:25] <KLVTZ> bipul: hello
[21:25] <daftykins> !ask | bipul
[21:25] <KLVTZ> !patience
[21:25] <captaincool> using 14.10 is there a way to see the full path of a smb share so that I can add that to /etc/fstab to have it mount permanently?  I'm using an asus router to share two usb hdd's and I'm trying to have those permanently mounted so that universtal media server can see my files all the time.  Any help would be appreciated.
[21:26] <captaincool> all I see when using ctrl+L is smb://sharename
[21:26] <captaincool> in nautilus
[21:26] <daftykins> captaincool: what? smb://IP address/sharename
[21:26] <daftykins> captaincool: but you'd need to be on a static IP.
[21:26] <captaincool> I am
[21:26] <bipul> Could anyone please tell me the back end process  of this command "sudo ee site create example.com --wp"  here ee is a bash script
[21:26] <NegativeFlare> !samba | captaincool
[21:26] <Loshki> KLVTZ: yes, it's ok to have a tar.gz inside a tar file, though it's not particularly efficient.
[21:27] <daftykins> bipul: read the script and see, doesn't seem to be anything to do with Ubuntu
[21:28] <captaincool> i get Mounting cifs URL not implemented yet. Attempt to mount smb://mediashare/wd_hdd/
[21:28] <captaincool> when doing mount -a
[21:28] <KLVTZ> Loshki: will it hurt the process of un-compressing it? Or is it more effecient to keep those separated?
[21:28] <bipul> daftykins, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vipullinux/easyengine/master/bin/install
[21:30] <Loshki> KLVTZ: the important bit is that it will work and you will get all your files back. The only real cost is that you are recompressing an already compressed file and decompressing it again later, which is a waste of cpu time and disk space, but otherwise harmless.
[21:30] <daftykins> bipul: so it's some third party program on github, go check them out - but it has nothing to do with ubuntu
[21:31] <yoda> stupid general question ion linux i know the kerenl is gnu licensed but for all the other programs ,utils,grub,compilers,...etc for linux systems for the most part gnu software
[21:31] <bipul> daftykins, I am trying to install on a ubuntu.
[21:31] <yoda> ion = on
[21:31] <daftykins> bipul: so contact them for how :)
[21:32] <yoda> or do they fall under a differentnongnu licenses
[21:32] <daftykins> bipul: just so you know though, the best way to learn website administration is to do it manually - not learn all these little "helper" programs
[21:32] <sudormrf> question for you ladies and gents.  which mail client do you prefer for your linux desktop?
[21:32] <daftykins> yoda: as your questions are general, take them to #linux
[21:33] <yoda> and can i say ubuntu linux uses for the most part gnu based software for everything
[21:33] <daftykins> yoda: this for your homework huh?
[21:34] <hamedshahien> hello every body
[21:34] <yoda> sort of just curious if every thing for the most part on linux is under a gnu software
[21:34] <KLVTZ> Loshki: thanks for taking the time to explain this.
[21:34] <daftykins> yoda: #linux then
[21:34] <sudormrf> captaincool, I think the syntax of the message you posted explains the issue. unless you have verification that this works for others?
[21:34] <k1l_> yoda: see this list what is gnu software: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_GNU_packages
[21:34] <yoda> as well ubuntu being one great flavor
[21:34] <sudormrf> I like cookies n' cream myself
[21:34] <k1l_> yoda: that is kind of some basis, but for daily use you use a lot of programs that are not gnu.
[21:34] <Loshki> KLVTZ: you're most welcome...
[21:35] <daftykins> sudormrf: webmail. :)
[21:35] <hamedshahien> I need to connect external monitor to my laptop but the resolution is very low . any idea ?
[21:35] <sudormrf> daftykins, always swimming upstream :P
[21:35] <daftykins> sudormrf: not sure what you mean by that
[21:35] <hamedshahien> have you any idea about solving resolution
[21:35] <sudormrf> daftykins, do you use roundcube?
[21:36] <daftykins> never heard of it
[21:36] <Loshki> sudormrf: gmail :-)
[21:36] <daftykins> ^
[21:37] <sudormrf> daftykins, it's a web frontend for things like postfix
[21:37] <sudormrf> ah, you guys use gmail
[21:37] <sudormrf> ic :)
[21:37] <daftykins> yeah, hosting yourself is just an unnecessary headache
[21:37] <sudormrf> heh, agree :D
[21:37] <daftykins> i put gapps out for most.
[21:38] <palecrow> #openstack-horizon
[21:38] <sudormrf> #sudormrf
[21:38] <captaincool> sudormrf, I guess I don't know what I should be using instead of that path
[21:39] <sudormrf> captaincool, I didn't follow your whole issue, just caught the tail end
[21:39] <captaincool> is it okay to repaste my question in here?
[21:40] <sudormrf> hold
[21:40] <sudormrf> I will scroll up
[21:40] <Loshki> sudormrf: well, for work, I used mh-e, because mail volumes were astronomical, and someone else took care of backups etc., and you don't want your corporate email being read by google, but for casual email, why bother with anything more complex?
[21:40] <sudormrf> capri, in summation, you have 2 USB drives attached to your computer that you want to share over the network and have them mounted permanently in your router, is that correct?
[21:41] <sudormrf> Loshki, ic
[21:41] <captaincool> me? yes
[21:41] <svetlana> yoda: the bash you're using is gnu bash. the desktop you're using, if gnome, is a gnu desktop. some bash utils also come from gnu.
[21:41] <captaincool> um no
[21:41] <captaincool> I have an asus router
[21:41] <captaincool> which is sharing two usb drives
[21:41] <captaincool> already
[21:42] <captaincool> I just want to mount them in ubuntu permanently so Universal media server has access to them
[21:42] <svetlana> yoda: gnu is not as much about doing all the things as about establishing ethical freedom of software, and launching new projects to fill the proprietary gaps. www.gnu.org homepage, and http://www.gnu.org/distros/common-distros.html, may be relevant.
[21:42] <captaincool> but I can't see the correct full network path anywhere
[21:43] <bipul> !libexpat1-dev
[21:44] <captaincool> so that I can add it to /etc/fstab
[21:46] <frenchpress> So, I'm getting an error every time I install something with apt-get : common-update-notifer \ E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkh returned an error code (1)
[21:47] <yoda> so would it be safe to say the majority of software or programs running on a linux or linux based os mostly like 90% gnu based software
[21:47] <frenchpress> Someone ran into the same problem back in 2008, or so it seems, and resolved this by `sudo dpkh --remove --force-remove-reinstreq common-update-notifier`
[21:47] <frenchpress> dpkg**
[21:47] <k1l_> frenchpress: can you paste the whole output into a pastebin and show the link here?
[21:48] <frenchpress> k1l_: You know what, I'll do that. one moment please
[21:49] <k1l_> yoda: the more "philosophical" talk about what gnu is or not would better suit into #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[21:49] <ljunggre1> Hi, someone has noticed when using fglrx and resizing windows lags a lot and eventually just crash your desktop? it freezes for me constantly
[21:50] <frenchpress> http://sprunge.us/SSaF
[21:50] <jhutchins> ljunggre1: Not generally.
[21:50] <jhutchins> ljunggre1: 14.10/Unity?
[21:50] <ljunggre1> jhutchins: hmm
[21:51] <frenchpress> sorry, it was update-notifier-common (I am on a different computer now)
[21:51] <ljunggre1> jhutchins: 14.04.1 Unity
[21:51] <ljunggre1> fglrx-updates
[21:51] <yoda> on last gnu question is the fsf.org sites software hosted equivalently on gnu ftp site or do the fsf.org have software they host the gnu ftp mirrors don't have?
[21:51] <daftykins> yoda: how many times do i need to tell you to ask in #linux before you take the hint? :)
[21:51] <jhutchins> ljunggre1: Reports of flash blanking/crashing, but not window resize.
[21:52] <k1l_> frenchpress: what ubuntu is that exactly?
[21:52] <frenchpress> k1l_: Excellent question: 14.04
[21:54] <k1l_> frenchpress: some changes made to the system? like to python?
[21:54] <frenchpress> k1l_: I use virtualenvs regularly
[21:55] <frenchpress> k1l_: I may have sudo pip installed matplotlib in the past though
[21:55] <frenchpress> k1l_: Because matplotlib doesn't care about non-anaconda users. It's most hateful discrimination there is
[21:55] <Pici> frenchpress: Are you sure you aren't in an activated virtualenv?
[21:56] <frenchpress> Pici: I am inside an activated virtualenv, but the same problem happens when I use Synaptic
[21:57] <frenchpress> Same exact error outside of virtualenv as well
[21:57] <k1l_> frenchpress: scroll down to the "my solution" answer:http://askubuntu.com/questions/246970/apt-get-broken-no-module-named-debian-deb822  it talks about reinstalling python-chardet
[21:59] <frenchpress> k1l_: Nice find, I'll follow closely, but what the hell is python-chardet?
[21:59] <k1l_> frenchpress: i have never seen this issue or that package before, too :)
[21:59] <OerHeks> i find this interesting for frenchpress > " ls /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chardet " to see if there is an problem >>> http://askubuntu.com/a/548773
[22:00] <OerHeks> ah k1l_ found that too
[22:01] <frenchpress> OerHeks: Great minds think alike
[22:01] <frenchpress> OerHeks: (you and k1l_, not me)
[22:01] <k1l_> :) very charming
[22:02] <OerHeks> i did learned something from him, true
[22:03] <frenchpress> I am not experiencing the same symptoms as the poster, I have no issues running chardet, and have all of those files in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chardet
[22:03] <frenchpress> Should I just reinstall it anyway?
[22:03] <OerHeks> You could reinstall python, that should not hurt.
[22:04] <frenchpress> That won't remove site-packages will it?
[22:05] <OerHeks> It will give you a warning if some packages are removed, i guess
[22:05] <chebit> hello, I have a problem with ubuntu 14.04, the system setting disappeared, I reinstalled but not install everything,
[22:05] <chebit> I reinstalled but not install everything, everything is weird.
[22:05] <captaincool> Okay I'm still trying to figure this share path out for a smb share, How do I tell what the path for smb://mediashare/100gb/  I need the full path for /etc/fstab so I can mount this permanently.
[22:06] <captaincool> for example smb://mediashare/100gb/ would be //192.168.1.1/???/mediashare/100gb
[22:08] <OerHeks> captaincool, there is a nice wiki for that > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[22:09] <captaincool> OerHeks, I've been looking at that and some other pages for a few hours now, my problem comes when I hit this step >
[22:09] <captaincool> Then edit your /etc/fstab file (with root privileges) to add this line:
[22:09] <captaincool> /servername/sharename  /media/windowsshare  cifs  guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8  0  0
[22:09] <captaincool> I don't know what to put for the /servername/sharename
[22:09] <daftykins> captaincool: router IP
[22:09] <captaincool> because the path only comes up as smb://sharename
[22:10] <ilyas> Hi
[22:10] <ilyas> I don't have the sound in my ubuntu. I just installed it
[22:11] <captaincool> daftykins, no such device or address
[22:11] <daftykins> captaincool: you are talking about mounting this share on your router, yes?
[22:12] <captaincool> yes I have a usb hdd which is shared as a smb share by my asus router.  I just want to mount that permanently in my fstab
[22:13] <sliddjur> is it possible to change song in spotify app via cli?
[22:13] <captaincool> no the share is already good to go
[22:13] <captaincool> I can access it on windows and ubuntu if I go to browse network on ubuntu
[22:13] <captaincool> I want it mounted permanently on ubuntu so my media server can share the usb drive
[22:14] <OerHeks> !sound | sliddjur
[22:14] <captaincool> the problem is that /etc/fstab can't use smb://sharename as a path
[22:14] <daftykins> captaincool: yeah that's what i mean, it tells you the path on the page i bet.
[22:15] <daftykins> captaincool: yeah, it uses //IP address/share
[22:15] <OerHeks> or sliddjur, what device is your output? hdmi/monitor?
[22:15] <sliddjur> OerHeks: hdmi output
[22:15] <Fex> hello
[22:16] <daftykins> captaincool: first off unmount it from any graphical mounting you've done in nautilus, then do a test mount with "sudo mkdir /mnt/share && sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.1/share /mnt/share -o user=guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8"
[22:17] <OerHeks> sliddjur, known issue on ALL linux versions, this page might be your help too http://itsfoss.com/fix-sound-ubuntu-1404/
[22:20] <jimmy51v_> i have some custom html files with a non standard extension.  *.cfml   how do i set my mime types such that the system treats them as html files?
[22:20] <jimmy51v_> i've edited /etc/mime.types and also edited /usr/share/mime/text/html.xml
[22:20] <jimmy51v_> neither seems to have mad a difference
[22:21] <captaincool> daftykins, here is the command I used after creating the dir
[22:21] <captaincool> sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.1/mediashare/wd_hd /mnt/share -o user=guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8
[22:21] <captaincool> those are what should be the parts of  the path
[22:21] <captaincool> but I think there may be a directory missing
[22:23] <captaincool> but of course the only path I can nail down with nautilus is smb://mediashare/wd_hdd/
[22:23] <captaincool> is there no way to see the whole network path?
[22:24] <Ben64> if you use smb://mediashare then you dont use that in //IP/sharename
[22:24] <daftykins> captaincool: what does "df -h" show?
[22:24] <captaincool> Ben64, that would work but /etc/fstab will not allow smb://path
[22:25] <Ben64> captaincool: yes, we're well aware. and you've been told the correct syntax quite a few times already
[22:25] <ejuan> daftykins,  disk free human readable
[22:26] <daftykins> ejuan: well done. i did not need to be told that, however.
[22:26] <captaincool> Ben64, Sorry but I haven't.  it's not working.  I can browse to the share with network browser, I need that path.
[22:26] <captaincool> Ben64, I'm not saying it's not my fault mind you
[22:26] <Ben64> captaincool: you need to listen. in fstab you do //IP/sharename
[22:27] <captaincool> Ben64, I've tried that yes that's not working
[22:27] <Ben64> what exactly did you put in there
[22:27] <captaincool> daftykins, can I paste 5 lines here?
[22:27] <Ben64> no, use a pastebin
[22:27] <ejuan> mah b
[22:27] <captaincool> okay
[22:28] <OerHeks> jimmy51v_, just rightclick in filebrowser: open with > firefox/chrome/any browser ?
[22:28] <captaincool> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10178993/
[22:28] <jimmy51v_> OerHeks: eh... got a CLI method?
[22:28] <Ben64> captaincool: what is that for
[22:29] <daftykins> i asked
[22:29] <captaincool> daftykins, asked for it
[22:29] <Ben64> oh
[22:29] <Ben64> didn't see that
[22:29] <daftykins> captaincool: nm, it isn't mounted so useless
[22:29] <Ben64> captaincool: paste the line you added to fstab here
[22:30] <captaincool> /192.168.1.1/MEDIASHARE/WD_HD/ /media/wdhd cifs  guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8  0  0
[22:30] <daftykins> its //192
[22:30] <Ben64> right, like you've been told, its //IP/share, not //IP/machine_name/share
[22:30] <Ben64> make sure "Mediashare"'s IP is 192.168.1.1
[22:31] <captaincool> Ben64, It is, I just tried //192.168.1.1/WD_HD/ /media/wdhd cifs  guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8  0  0
[22:32] <captaincool> still no device or address
[22:32] <Ben64> captaincool: pastebin the output of this command... "smbclient -L 192.168.1.1"
[22:34] <captaincool> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10179056/
[22:35] <Ben64> then you need additional authentication
[22:35] <jarvis_> hey
[22:35] <captaincool> that's what I thought too but there is no password on that share at all.  It's open to anyone on the lan side
[22:36] <daftykins> captaincool: "smbclient -L 192.168.1.1 -U username" - use the admin login details
[22:37] <captaincool> god dammit, blank password works?
[22:37] <captaincool> why would it require the pw at all?
[22:39] <daftykins> captaincool: ask Asus
[22:39] <captaincool> I'm sorry for being such a pain in the ass guys
[22:39] <MrJerome> Does anyone have experience with spanning 3 monitors using ATI Eyefinity or Nvidia SLI? I'm building a gaming computer and am wondering which video card will work better for spanning 3 screens for gameplay.
[22:39] <captaincool> I should have thought of that before
[22:41] <daftykins> MrJerome: i would think game support on Linux would be your biggest enemy, not hardware - done some research online?
[22:41] <natewalck> So this is interesting: http://146.137.96.7/pub/ubuntu/pool/main/
[22:42] <daftykins> natewalck: support questions only, thanks
[22:42] <natewalck> daftykins: np!
[22:43] <natewalck> daftykins: is there a casual ubuntu chat channel anywhere?
[22:43] <daftykins> !ot
[22:43] <natewalck> perfect, thanks!
[22:43] <MrJerome> daftykins: Steam is working nicely for me, and the main game I will be playing is iRacing which is available on linux. My only concern is the eyefinity/sli 3-monitor support, and which vendor has better support for linux.
[22:45] <daftykins> MrJerome: ok, sounds good
[22:50] <captaincool> Ben64 and daftykins thanks to both of you for your help, I just got it working.
[22:50] <daftykins> great
[22:50] <captaincool> ended up just creating a username/pw for the share on the router
[22:51] <daftykins> yeah guest never works well
[22:51] <captaincool> works great now.  And that was the last hurdle for me dumping windows completely!
[22:51] <OerHeks> nice captaincool, have fun !
[22:51] <rotten777> hey guys I'm running into a weird issue where my when I try to launch gedit from the launcher (unity) it doesn't launch
[22:51] <rotten777> but I can launch it from the terminal
[22:53] <rotten777> no error messages or anything
[22:54] <captaincool> as well it wouldn't mount the whole drive as a share, I had to mount a directory on the drive instead
[23:15] <Bray90820> I'm trying to install teamviewer on Ubuntu 14.10  X64 but lib32asound2 dependency isn't met
[23:17] <daftykins> Bray90820: tried the 32-bit instead?
[23:18] <Bray90820> daftykins: The 32bit of teamviewer or the 32bit ubuntu?
[23:18] <daftykins> teamviewer
[23:19] <daftykins> i would welcome a good slap across the face for the latter
[23:19] <svetlana> Bray90820: i wouldn't use teamviewer, it's proprietary - there are better alternatives (vnc or xrdp as a server; vnc or a standard something thing included with gnome as a client)
[23:19] <daftykins> those are not alternatives given the typical use-case behind teamviewer
[23:20] <svetlana> interesting, new to me
[23:20] <svetlana> i was assuming it's remote desktop access tool
[23:20] <daftykins> remote support mainly :)
[23:21] <daftykins> in which case you don't have access permanently setup for the other ends, necessarily
[23:21] <Bray90820> svetlana: thank you the 32bit worked and I don't have the password error anymore
[23:21] <daftykins> gah, taking the credit for my idea :(
[23:21] <daftykins> ;)
[23:22] <Bray90820> Sorry XD
[23:22] <daftykins> hehe np, glad it worked
[23:29] <yguyut7> what is a ubuntu image viewer that has good slideshow transitions and effects like the ones on Windows and Apple?
[23:37] <jcser001> Ciao a tutti...
[23:39] <azizLIGHT> teamviewer should put a message on their download page for ubuntu people that only 32bit works
[23:39] <daftykins> that's not fact
[23:40] <azizLIGHT> i got that same dependecny error a while back when i upgraded, and when i originally installed teamviewr
[23:41] <NegativeFlare> I prefer VNC over Teamviewer, but it requires Port Forwarding
[23:44] <azizLIGHT> and i hope ssh tunnel
[23:45] <daftykins> NegativeFlare: they're not even vaguely the same product, but ok
[23:45] <daftykins> now lets return to topic
[23:45] <NegativeFlare> daftykins: Excuse me xD
[23:49] <hamedshahien> I need to connect external monitor to my laptop but the resolution is very low .have you any idea ?
[23:49] <daftykins> hamedshahien: did you plug it in after boot, or boot up with it?
[23:50] <Criten> Hey guys, multiple monitor question. Is there a way to have a seperate group of screens per monitor (be able to swap desktops independently per monitor)
[23:51] <hamedshahien> before i open the my laptop
[23:52] <hamedshahien> maximum res 1920*1080 / 60hz but i can't work in this resolution . it's not in the menu
[23:54] <daftykins> hamedshahien: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[23:56] <hamedshahien> i installed it but it's still 1024 768
[23:57] <daftykins> hamedshahien: there were two commands, the second pastebins a log file
[23:57] <daftykins> i want to read it :)
[23:57] <Qwertie> Does anyone here know how to use xsetwacom?
[23:58] <Qwertie> The line "xsetwacom set $pad Button 9 "key +"" maps the button to = and not +
[23:59] <yguyut7> does anyone here even help?
[23:59] <daftykins> pretty constantly for many years, yes.
[23:59] <daftykins> but shockingly enough - not everyone knows about every single topic
[23:59] <daftykins> yguyut7: take comments like that elsewhere please.
