| Jordan_U | guest342156743: Is there a particular problem you're trying to solve? | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| omgitsmit | Jordan_U: i was afraid to ask :X | 00:01 |
| OerHeks | maybe he wants to explore dconf | 00:02 |
| guest342156743 | no just trying to find all the registry equivalent files for a unix or linux based machine i think the closest thing is etc folder and maybe var for log info (equivalent to the msc snap in event log files) | 00:03 |
| dmatt | I installed 14.04 Hardware Enablement Stack and I am not happy about it, how do I revert back to 3.13 kernel and original 14.4.1 stack? | 00:04 |
| rashivar | guest342156743: in that case, add /proc also to your list | 00:04 |
| rashivar | guest342156743: that could be compared to the CurrentControlSet entries | 00:04 |
| Jordan_U | guest342156743: As a general piece of advice, I would recommend not trying to think about things as "registry equivalents" or "X equivalents" (where X is some Windows component) at all. Just learn about how Ubuntu is configured, without relation to Windows concepts. | 00:05 |
| k1l_ | dmatt: uninstall the utopic lts packages | 00:05 |
| k1l_ | dmatt: dpkg -l | grep utopic | 00:05 |
| guest342156743 | ya for the process and memory what about sys or boot | 00:05 |
| Juon | Ei pessoal | 00:05 |
| Juon | Hii guys | 00:05 |
| Juon | Who are yhou | 00:05 |
| omgitsmit | Welcome Juon | 00:06 |
| Juon | you | 00:06 |
| Juon | Thank you | 00:06 |
| rashivar | Jordan_U , (y) | 00:06 |
| guest342156743 | proc is the one but sys or boot maybe for boot configurations or sys system configurations | 00:06 |
| Jordan_U | rashivar: I don't understand your last message. | 00:07 |
| Juon | I stay tring install linux ubunto in my PC Pentium 4 3.6GHZ e 2.5GB the memory, and my monitor is SyncMaster 794v CRT , the problem is Hz = ? | 00:07 |
| Jordan_U | Juon: What is your end goal? What problem are you running into when trying to achieve that end goal? | 00:08 |
| EriC^^ | Jordan_U: i think it's a thumbs up | 00:08 |
| rashivar | yes, too much facebook nowadays | 00:08 |
| dmatt | k1l_: is there easier way than apt-get remove names_of_all_packages ? | 00:09 |
| Juon | and I can go into recovery mode, but in normal mode can not, I do not know what to do. | 00:09 |
| Jordan_U | Juon: What happens when you try to boot normally? | 00:09 |
| k1l_ | dmatt: its not difficult. what give you: dpkg -l | grep utopic | 00:09 |
| Juon | a black screen with a sign Hz think it's monitor frequency setting my video card is gforce 5200 128mb ram | 00:11 |
| dmatt | k1l_: but this does not reinstall older packages removed when I installed those utopic packages. or does it? | 00:11 |
| k1l_ | dmatt: this command i showed you is just for listing the packages. | 00:11 |
| k1l_ | please show them in a pastebin | 00:11 |
| Jordan_U | Juon: OK. For future messages please use proper capitalization and punctuation. It makes it easier to understand you. | 00:12 |
| omgitsmit | Jordan_U: Juon came in speaking a diff lang at first :) | 00:12 |
| oslo2015 | How do I edit repos in terminal? | 00:12 |
| omgitsmit | oslo2015: take a look at /var/apt/sources.list | 00:13 |
| rww | /etc/apt/sources.list | 00:13 |
| rww | not /var | 00:13 |
| omgitsmit | er | 00:13 |
| oslo2015 | omgitsmit, exactly what I was looking for | 00:13 |
| oslo2015 | rww, noted | 00:13 |
| Jordan_U | omgitsmit: Getting capitalization and punctuation right is usually easier than other aspects of a second language, and having those two things can help make up for mistakes in other areas. | 00:13 |
| omgitsmit | i get them mixed up often :) | 00:13 |
| rashivar | osio2015: some files could also be in : /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 00:13 |
| omgitsmit | Jordan_U: true | 00:14 |
| omgitsmit | (purposely not capitalized) | 00:14 |
| Juon | I'm using google translate, I will be more careful when typing. | 00:14 |
| oslo2015 | Can I remove external repos from the list without worry of fucking things up? | 00:15 |
| Jordan_U | oslo2015: Please watch your language. | 00:15 |
| Jordan_U | !ppa-purge | oslo2015 | 00:16 |
| ubottu | oslo2015: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 00:16 |
| Juon | My monitor is out of sync | 00:16 |
| Jordan_U | oslo2015: But even with that, there is always a risk to adding third party repos. | 00:16 |
| oslo2015 | I aplogize for the language. | 00:16 |
| oslo2015 | Thank you for the tip. | 00:16 |
| guest342156743 | i know bin , sbin are for global/core programs and sysadmin programs | cdrom,mnt,media folders are for mounting devices | dev is for device files | boot is for grub , lilo,...etc bootloader programs| home is where all users directories/data is | etc is for application/program configuration/settings data | lib is for programming .so shared library files for programmers to uses | proc is for your process information | root is t | 00:18 |
| guest342156743 | he roots home dir | tmp is for temporary files | var is for log files and email messages | 00:18 |
| omgitsmit | guest342156743: well done | 00:18 |
| guest342156743 | but what is opt , run , srv for seems like there linux distro specific | 00:18 |
| omgitsmit | my /opt is empty, and ive followed tutorials that used /opt/ for installing packages | 00:19 |
| dmatt | k1l_: not sure how to use pastebin, however I removed everything from dpkg ... utopic listing | 00:19 |

| === Sergio is now known as Guest36031 | ||
| guest342156743 | same with srv | 00:20 |
| dmatt | k1l_: but i still have 3.16 kernel after update-grub which means it is not all back to old | 00:20 |
| k1l_ | guest342156743: omgitsmit /opt is for optional software, that is not installed from the package system | 00:20 |
| guest342156743 | is srv some thing for source packages / source files to go in | 00:21 |
| k1l_ | !paste | dmatt | 00:21 |

| Juon | ubottu Obrigado | 00:21 |
| guest342156743 | ok so opt could be a folder in your /home directory so probably the reason why they created /opt is for a places to share third party programs/packages to all home users.. though not vital to linux | 00:22 |
| omgitsmit | k1l_: that would make sense as to why they were using it to install additional software :) | 00:22 |
| k1l_ | guest342156743: no | 00:22 |
| omgitsmit | guest342156743: i would not move opt to home | 00:23 |
| omgitsmit | guest342156743: what are you trying to figure out exactly anyway? | 00:23 |
| k1l_ | well, yes. sorry did read that wrong | 00:23 |
| rashivar | i guess he need to know what exactly each folder is for | 00:23 |
| rashivar | guest342156743: you should read about FHS | 00:23 |
| guest342156743 | i am saying /opt is equivalent for the most part to just using your /home/user/opt directory you create manually | 00:23 |
| rashivar | http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_2.3/fhs-2.3.html | 00:23 |
| EriC^^ | didn't rww link him to the guide earlier? | 00:23 |
| omgitsmit | yeah i think he did | 00:24 |
| EriC^^ | i think it explains everything pretty well | 00:24 |
| omgitsmit | !hier | omgitsmit | 00:24 |
| ubottu | omgitsmit, please see my private message | 00:24 |

| === ricardo is now known as Guest78180 | ||
| k1l_ | dmatt: you are making it way to complex. but we cant help you since you dont give any exact detailed informations in what state your system actually is | 00:25 |
| omgitsmit | guest342156743: he just explained srv | 00:25 |
| EriC^^ | guest342156743: the answers to all of your questions https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview | 00:25 |
| k1l_ | guest342156743: do you even read? | 00:26 |
| omgitsmit | sometimes people just get so excited about a new operating system :) | 00:27 |
| dmatt | k1l_: I installed via "sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-utopic xserver-xorg-lts-utopic libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-utopic libegl1-mesa-drivers-lts-utopic | 00:27 |
| dmatt | " | 00:27 |
| k1l_ | <k1l_> dmatt: dpkg -l | grep utopic | 00:27 |
| dmatt | k1l_: in hope I get some more power efficiency on my notebook, but it had exact opposite effect | 00:28 |
| omgitsmit | dmatt: if the notebook is of lower spec, you might want to try Xubuntu. It runs really nicely on older hardware. | 00:28 |
| omgitsmit | Have it running on the "P4 of fury" in the closet ;) | 00:29 |
| dmatt | omgitsmit: its quadcore with 16GB :) | 00:29 |
| omgitsmit | :( | 00:29 |
| omgitsmit | no P4 of fury for you then! | 00:29 |
| dmatt | k1l_: list of utopic packages http://paste.ubuntu.com/10332857/ | 00:31 |
| k1l_ | dmatt: is that all? that there is none installed on your system | 00:32 |
| dmatt | omgitsmit: I had my fair share of that | 00:32 |
| k1l_ | dmatt: "dpkg -l | grep linux-image" | 00:32 |
| dmatt | k1l_: I removed all packages that ware listed in original apt-get install and cleaned the rest per your request | 00:33 |
| guest342156743 | O ok that link clears most things up for me except the distinction of proc and sys if i remember correctly proc is for viewing process/memory info and can be used to send process signals , sys is more the writable version of proc to allow one to not only view but change system settings like address randomization on/off ,..etc would this be the distinction between sys and proc | 00:34 |
| k1l_ | dmatt: please stop interpreting things that i dont say. i am requesting only information to get to know on what status your system is since30mins now | 00:34 |
| dmatt | k1l_: all 3.13 and one 3.16, which is currently active | 00:35 |
| k1l_ | dmatt: that is no secret information. just put it into the pastebin to show us because the details matter. | 00:35 |
| dmatt | k1l_: I only specified what uninstall commands I already run | 00:36 |
| dmatt | k1l_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10332908/ | 00:37 |
| === jkbbwr_ is now known as jkbbwr | ||
| k1l_ | dmatt: ok, "sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.16.0-30-generic" | 00:39 |
| k1l_ | then sudo apt-get autoremove | 00:39 |
| guest342156743 | very stupid question /lib , /bin , /sbin what is the difference between thoses and the ones under /usr.. i mean i get what /usr directory is but doesn't all users by default have access to /bin programs /lib libraries | 00:40 |
| guest342156743 | and /usr/sbin to sbin ? | 00:40 |
| guest342156743 | sysadmin to sysadmin? | 00:41 |
| EriC^^ | guest342156743: it's cause /bin are very basic, in case /usr in on a different partition so /bin can still be used during booting in case /usr fails | 00:41 |
| feef | FUCK | 00:41 |
| EriC^^ | guest342156743: please check http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy.pdf | 00:42 |
| feef | sandstorm | 00:43 |
| feef | so | 00:44 |
| guest342156743 | wait so does normally users by default have access to /bin , /lib as well as /usr directories and its subdirectories | 00:44 |
| EriC^^ | yes | 00:45 |
| Jordan_U | guest342156743: There is currently a transition from having these directories separarate to having /bin/, /sbin/, and /lib*/ simply be symlinks to their counterparts in /usr/. The rationalle for this is given in http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/TheCaseForTheUsrMerge/ , and shows that the distinction is mostly historical and no longer relevant. | 00:46 |
| dmatt | k1l_: I am not sure about that autoremove thing, for example it wants to remove my libc6-i386 which was definitely not installed by utopic update | 00:46 |
| feef | wow | 00:47 |
| guest342156743 | so /lib could be placed in /usr/lib and the xxx equivalent can be placed in /user/xxx there is no benifit to seperation as there is for /root | 00:48 |
| guest342156743 | i don't know if /bin was programs universial to all linux distros and /usr/bin was more linux distro specific/specialized programs or if there was another reason for seperation | 00:49 |
| guest342156743 | similar for sbin | 00:49 |
| guest342156743 | and /sur/sbin | 00:49 |
| Jordan_U | guest342156743: If you'd like to discuss the history of FHS please join #ubuntu-offtopic. For #ubuntu please stick to suppport discussion only. | 00:51 |
| febreeze | hello | 00:51 |
| dmatt | k1l_: this is apt history log http://paste.ubuntu.com/10333122/ I am afraid i lost lot of essential packages by that apt-get remove, first I spot was kubuntu-desktop , autoremove in this case does not sound like good idea | 00:57 |
| dmatt | k1l_: but I might be wrong of course | 00:57 |

| Mike321_ | svetlana: fresh install of 14.04 built from mini iso. netgear a6100 usb powered wifi reciever. when first installed networking was enabled through ethernet, ran some commands from the forums and got the wifi working. | 01:15 |

| svetlana | it's alright | 01:16 |
| svetlana | i assume you now forgot what commands you ran? | 01:16 |
| svetlana | try to type «history» in your terminal and look at the first few lines or so, maybe it'll remind you what you ran | 01:17 |
| Mike321_ | now though ebery time i restart the machine it starts up with no networking capabilities at all. the network manager the first time gave an error that networking wasnt available for this version. i rebooted to grub, advanced options, enabled networking, and normal boot to everything working properly. now even that isnt working. | 01:17 |

| oeslian | thats available in in the f11 boot device menu, but I don't see any choice of boot device in bios outside of hard disk vs usb boot | 01:36 |
| EriC^^ | oeslian: is this uefi? | 01:37 |
| oeslian | ive even set sda3 as my boot device in gparted | 01:37 |
| oeslian | its in legacy mode for windows 7 | 01:37 |
| ablest1980 | ufw says i need root how do i get root? | 01:37 |
| EriC^^ | ok, i suspect you installed grub to sda3 instead of sda during the ubuntu installation, did you partition manually during the install? | 01:38 |
| oeslian | ablest root is sudo | 01:38 |
| ablest1980 | ok | 01:38 |
| oeslian | yes i did, should i puit grub on sda? | 01:38 |
| ablest1980 | ty i forgot | 01:38 |
| EriC^^ | oeslian: yes, boot into the installation and type sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sda , then sudo update-grub | 01:38 |
| ablest1980 | bbl ty | 01:39 |
| oeslian | boot into the live cd or just my linux installation? | 01:39 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321_: A thought, as a minimal install does not include Network Manager, and you added it. what is "managed=false " from : cat /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf ? | 01:39 |
| EriC^^ | your linux installation | 01:39 |
| oeslian | ill try that now, thank you eric | 01:39 |
| EriC^^ | no problem | 01:39 |
| oeslian | eric im going to reboot, ill be back in a minute and tell you if its fixed | 01:40 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 01:40 |
| Mike321_ | Bashing-om: ok im confused at what youre asking, when i type the "cat/etc...etc in command it says [ifupdown] above managed=false | 01:46 |
| oeslian | hey eric it worked thank you | 01:48 |
| EriC^^ | great, np | 01:48 |
| Mike321_ | Bashing-om: ?? | 01:48 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321_: OK, that means I think that 'You" manage the networking. Your -> cat /etc/network/interfaces <- is it similar to mine : http://paste.ubuntu.com/10333762/ ? | 01:49 |
| Mike321_ | Bashing-om: yes minus the change to eth1 and everything else still says eth0 | 01:51 |
| Mike321_ | Bashing-om: so how do i make ubuntu manage the network? | 01:52 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321_: OK, is 'eth0' recognized, what returns -> ifconfig -a <- | 01:52 |
| guest342156743 | curious why are there by default symbolic links for the kernel and ramdisk in / isn't the bootloader using the /boot/vmlinuz...etc /boot/initrd.img-.... etc under boot | 01:53 |
| guest342156743 | didn't know if i could delete just the links i mean unlink them or if they server some kind of purposes | 01:54 |
| ayesian | df -h shows that /dev/vda1 is 100% full, how to fix help!!! | 01:54 |
| Mike321_ | Bashing-om: ok give me a few this is alot to type | 01:54 |
| Bashing-om | guest342156743: That is done so the operating system is not rewritten each time the kernel gets updated/upgraded. | 01:54 |
| omgitsmit | ayesian: system running? | 01:55 |
| ayesian | yes | 01:55 |
| guest342156743 | how is that so with symbolic links | 01:55 |
| omgitsmit | ayesian: last ditch effort, sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get autoremove | 01:55 |
| omgitsmit | might free up some MB | 01:55 |
| omgitsmit | so you have some wiggle room | 01:55 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321_: All we need to know is if ifconfig get an inet address . | 01:55 |
| ayesian | Reading package lists... Error! | 01:56 |
| ayesian | E: Write error - write (28: No space left on device) | 01:56 |
| ayesian | E: IO Error saving source cache | 01:56 |
| ayesian | E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened. | 01:56 |
| EriC^^ | ayesian: you can check what's taking up the space with du -sxh /* 2>/dev/null | 01:56 |
| omgitsmit | duh, cant write logs to a full disk | 01:56 |
| omgitsmit | i was just thinking of a quick way to free up stuff | 01:56 |
| ayesian | that was running apt-get autoclean | 01:57 |
| guest342156743 | isn't it just copying the new compiled kernel to the boot directory and renaming .bkp the old kernel how is this symbolic link aiding | 01:57 |
| Bashing-om | guest342156743: Follow the link, and ya see the new kernel that is pointed to in '/boot' .. grub takes care of that linkage . | 01:57 |
| EriC^^ | omgitsmit: he could remove the archives from /var/cache/apt/archives if he didn't want them anymore | 01:57 |
| guest342156743 | the make install command | 01:57 |
| Mike321_ | Bashing-om: yes its getting an inet address | 01:57 |
| guest342156743 | but grub doesn't uses the link it uses the direct /boot/...kernel so where is the link coming in | 01:57 |
| EriC^^ | ayesian: did this suddenly happen or ? | 01:57 |
| guest342156743 | to aid | 01:58 |
| abhinavm | hi .. just installed 14.04.2 LTC on a laptop, and facing issues with vnc server (Lenovo T420). the window manager does not come up (a single terminal does). | 01:58 |
| ayesian | it shows 37G in /opt | 01:58 |
| EriC^^ | dang | 01:58 |
| EriC^^ | what's in there | 01:58 |
| omgitsmit | haha was just learning about /opt today thanks to guest342156743 | 01:58 |
| guest342156743 | i understand how symlinks work but if grub uses the direct path then the symbolic link is useless | 01:58 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321_: What results -> ifconfig eth0 up <- ? | 01:58 |
| abhinavm | need to set multiple VNC's for a demo, would appreciate some help ! | 01:59 |
| ayesian | well i removed the error.log in in /opt/nginx, didnt see any change | 01:59 |
| Mike321_ | SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not permitted | 01:59 |
| omgitsmit | abhinavm: i cant even get my vnc server to accept incoming connections properly at the moment, but thats on my todo list lol | 01:59 |
| Mike321_ | Bashing-om: ^ | 01:59 |
| ayesian | any ideas?? | 02:00 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321_: Wow, that sets me back on my heels .. lemme think a bit . | 02:00 |
| abhinavm | omgitsimt vnc connections are working, just the display and windows are screwed up .. | 02:00 |
| EriC^^ | ayesian: was this sudden or? | 02:00 |
| omgitsmit | abhinavm: dual screens or anything? | 02:00 |
| EriC^^ | Mike321_: sudo | 02:00 |
| omgitsmit | abhinavm: you said it was a laptop, do you have a external second screen attached? i dunno | 02:01 |
| abhinavm | omgitsmit: no dual screens, just the laptop screen | 02:01 |
| abhinavm | omgitsmit, more to do with window managers .. | 02:01 |
| omgitsmit | abhinavm: gnome? unity? | 02:01 |
| anna | Good Day People! | 02:01 |
| omgitsmit | welcome anna | 02:01 |
| === anna is now known as Guest5020 | ||
| Bashing-om | Mike321_: -> sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup -v eth0 <- tell us anything ? | 02:02 |
| abhinavm | omgitsmit: unity I guess .. | 02:02 |
| Guest5020 | I just got rid of windows8 on my newly bought Acer Aspire E-15 (don't judge, was cheap) | 02:02 |
| Mike321_ | EriC^^: Bashing-om adding sudo didnt say it wasnt permitted but returned nothing and ok 1 sec | 02:02 |
| omgitsmit | abhinavm: im assuming xorg is up and running find on the client machine? | 02:02 |
| abhinavm | omgitsmit: it is standard install .. I tried installing metacity but that did not help | 02:02 |
| Guest5020 | and I cant get my trackpad AND wifi to work. | 02:02 |
| omgitsmit | fine* | 02:02 |
| ayesian | EriC^^: ubuntu is basically just running nginx, i think error.log filled it all up, i did rm /opt/nginx/error.log, but still shows /dev/vda1 100% use | 02:02 |
| EriC^^ | Mike321_: that means it worked | 02:02 |
| rashivar | abhinavm , on the terminal you see, run `gnome-session` | 02:03 |
| omgitsmit | rashivar: even for unity? | 02:03 |
| ayesian | any way to search for large files in linux command line? | 02:03 |
| EriC^^ | ayesian: find / -size +1G | 02:03 |
| abhinavm | omgitsmit: yes .. http://pastebin.com/ANqWmqmn | 02:04 |
| Mike321_ | ok Bashing-om socket/fallback and failed to open lockfile /run/network/.ifstate.lock: permission denied | 02:04 |
| abhinavm | http://pastebin.com/q43KWPUw is the vnc startup | 02:05 |
| rashivar | also, running gnome-session on vnc was not a nice experience for me ever.. i would prefer a mini WM like openbox or something | 02:05 |
| omgitsmit | abhinavm: do you know where the vnc logs are kept? that might give you a clue as to whats happening after you connect successfully | 02:05 |
| ayesian | sudo find / -size +1G…. /proc/kcore…. find: `/proc/6005/task/6005/fd/5': No such file or directory…. find: `/proc/6005/task/6005/fdinfo/5': No such file or directory…. find: `/proc/6005/fd/5': No such file or directory…. find: `/proc/6005/fdinfo/5': No such file or directory | 02:05 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321_: checking .. not at all expected . | 02:05 |
| omgitsmit | rashivar: abhinavm: maybe Xubuntu? | 02:05 |
| abhinavm | omgsmit .. I can try xubuntu .. just need the thing to work :) | 02:05 |
| omgitsmit | yeah no kidding :) | 02:05 |
| rashivar | no need to reinstall | 02:05 |
| rashivar | just sudo apt-get install xfce4 | 02:06 |
| omgitsmit | switching wm is pretty easy | 02:06 |
| EriC^^ | ayesian: try find /var -size +1G | 02:06 |
| rashivar | and change line 13 to xfce4-session | 02:06 |
| abhinavm | ok .. | 02:06 |
| EriC^^ | ayesian: or find /opt | 02:06 |
| abhinavm | k .. I tried that as well earlier,on a different laptop.. but let me check here .. | 02:06 |
| omgitsmit | EriC^^: did you figure out what was in /opt? | 02:06 |
| abhinavm | is install of "xfce4" package sufficient .. no xubuntu-desktop required ? | 02:06 |
| ayesian | EriC^^: returned blank on /var and /opt | 02:07 |
| EriC^^ | omgitsmit: nope he said nginx or something | 02:07 |
| abhinavm | or it pulls on its own .. ? | 02:07 |
| rashivar | xfce4 is sufficient because you already have X running | 02:07 |
| omgitsmit | EriC^^: yeah i followed a tutorial for apache that had me working out of /opt | 02:07 |
| rashivar | it will pull what it needs | 02:07 |
| omgitsmit | EriC^^: which rose the question this afternoon :) | 02:07 |
| sproc | Anyone here use openbox on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS? I just upgraded a bunch of packages and noticed my ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh no longer fires; has anyone else encountered this? | 02:07 |
| EriC^^ | ayesian: you still haven't answered if this was sudden or like a week ago it was at 95% and the week earlier 90% | 02:07 |
| ayesian | EriC^^: i left the box on the internet for a month and its at 100% when i came back | 02:08 |
| EriC^^ | omgitsmit: small internet :P | 02:08 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: do you know at which point in the script that it fails? | 02:08 |
| ayesian | help! | 02:09 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: sorry laptop died. im back | 02:09 |
| omgitsmit | ayesian! | 02:09 |
| sproc | As far as I can tell, none of it executes. I'm logging in through the default Ubuntu login program (getty?). | 02:09 |
| omgitsmit | \o/ | 02:09 |
| EriC^^ | ayesian: so /opt was about 30gb when you left it? | 02:09 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: have you taken a look at it? | 02:09 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: could be something simple like a missing package or something | 02:09 |
| ayesian | Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on | 02:10 |

| Guest5020 | Can anyone help me out on some WiFi and Trackpad issues on an Acer Laptop? | 02:10 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: did you recieve the last feedback? | 02:10 |
| ayesian | 40G used | 02:10 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: i had a script that failed after a LTS server upgrade. i opened it up and pasted teh script line by line until i found the error | 02:10 |
| sproc | omgitsmit: I've verified that the autostart.sh still executes. I still have openbox selected at login and it executes fine; I just have to manually execute autostart.sh to get my environment like it was prior to the upgrade | 02:10 |
| EriC^^ | ayesian: is /opt supposed to be that large? do you have files in it and what not? | 02:10 |
| omgitsmit | gotcha | 02:10 |
| omgitsmit | you said the script was failing | 02:10 |
| sproc | s/still executes/still exists/ | 02:10 |
| ayesian | everything else is 1% or 0% in use | 02:10 |
| omgitsmit | not failing to start on bootup :) | 02:11 |
| abhinavm | omgitsmit, rashivar vnc logs : http://pastebin.com/vXXv2Q4C | 02:11 |
| ayesian | how to check opt size | 02:11 |
| omgitsmit | abhinavm: thank you | 02:11 |
| sproc | omgitsmit: Er, well previously it executed automatically, whereas now I have to execute it manually | 02:11 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: understood now :) | 02:11 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: did you have a init.d script firing it off? | 02:11 |
| sproc | omgitsmit: Nope, as far as I understood, openbox itself would execute whatever was in ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh | 02:12 |
| BrianH | Hey guys. Anyone good with troubleshooting graphics driver issues with nvidia? I have an older system (2002ish, Dell Dimension 4600) that has an NV18 (GeForce MX 440 AGP 8x, rev2) graphics card. Unity loads, but everything runs terribly slow. | 02:12 |
| omgitsmit | but when does openbox fire? | 02:12 |
| omgitsmit | (im not to familiar with openbox) | 02:12 |
| sproc | omgitsmit: Whenever I hit enter after typing my password into 'getty' | 02:13 |
| omgitsmit | sec | 02:13 |
| rashivar | abhinavm, nice. so you got gnome-session running | 02:13 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: openbox is a window manager | 02:13 |
| omgitsmit | right? | 02:13 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321_: Last I got was a 'locked' condition. I find this "In ubuntu 14.04 they have a new "feature" that makes it impossible to restart. Force the interface down and up works. -> sudo ip link set eth0 down , sudo ip link set eth0 up <- // Maybe ? | 02:14 |
| sproc | omgitsmit: And it seems to open fine; I can verify openbox-session is running, and that it functions fine with this one exception | 02:14 |
| EriC^^ | omgitsmit: i think lightdm starts it | 02:14 |
| abhinavm | rashivar, that works out of the box .. :) but as you see, there are no window decorators .. | 02:14 |
| BrianH | Afaik, the nvidia drivers for this card will work under the 96.43.23 legacy driver, but I can't get it to work. | 02:14 |
| sproc | omgitsmit: Yes, that's correct. | 02:14 |
| EriC^^ | sproc: you are using lightdm, aren't you? | 02:14 |
| abhinavm | so I can't manage the windows | 02:14 |
| sproc | EriC^^: Nope, regular openbox | 02:14 |
| EriC^^ | sproc: hmm? | 02:15 |
| Guest5020 | Can anyone help me out on some WiFi issues on my laptop? It's not hardblocked, but I cant seem to find the right driver, I tried a few already and worked my way through several forums. | 02:15 |
| Guest5020 | Please? :) | 02:15 |
| rashivar | did you try running gnome-session in that undecorated terminal window ? or startxfce4 ? or openbox-session ? | 02:15 |
| rashivar | i think the WM failed to start on your VNC session | 02:15 |
| EriC^^ | sproc: can you type ls -ld /path/to/your/script | 02:15 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: /usr/libexec/openbox-xdg-autostart --list | 02:16 |
| Jordan_U | Guest5020: Please pastebin the output of "lspci -vnn -d 14e4:". | 02:16 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: ok i had two issues, one was on my end the other is operating system. the ethernet cable end was broken in my router (the little lock broken off) so i had no wired connection. when i booted with the new cable i had no networking. i then booted into recovery, enabled networing, and resumed boot and everything was working fine. | 02:16 |
| omgitsmit | if that path even exists.. | 02:16 |
| rashivar | abhinavm, change your xstartup a little bit.. | 02:16 |
| Guest5020 | Jordan_U: No output at all | 02:17 |
| Jordan_U | Guest5020: If that produces no output, then please pastebin the output of "lspci -vnn", or if it's a USB dongle "lsusb". | 02:17 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: so now my only problem is networking not enabling itself automatically. | 02:17 |
| rashivar | line number 12 and 13 are causing problems for you | 02:17 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321__: I had similar issue, cats and cables do not mix ! .. Why I now run eth1 ! | 02:17 |
| sproc | omgitsmit: It exists as /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openbox-xdg-autostart on my system; it looks like I'm looking at some options with some checked and some not | 02:17 |
| abhinavm | rashivar, what do I change it to ? | 02:17 |
| rashivar | xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & | 02:18 |
| rashivar | startxfce4 & | 02:18 |
| rashivar | i guess you have installed xfce4 | 02:18 |
| Guest5020 | Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/6DFsPHAp | 02:18 |
| Guest5020 | PS: Trackpad is not working either btw... | 02:18 |
| abhinavm | rashivar, yes in installed xfce4 .. | 02:18 |
| EriC^^ | sproc: maybe the permissions are off on the script? | 02:19 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: kids here not cats lol. and the ethernet cable is kinda stretched 40' through the house which is why i use the netgear a6100 wireless adapter to run the machine on wifi. however, i have to get the box to enable networking on its own at restart or im going to have to keep this eth cable stretched through the house | 02:19 |
| EriC^^ | try ls -l and check | 02:19 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321__: Network is good now , right, and -> ping -c3 ubuntu.com <- gives good result ? | 02:19 |
| rashivar | you will need to restart your VNC server now.. so the new xstartup will execute | 02:19 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: do you have the option to select a session type before logging in? | 02:19 |
| omgitsmit | playing around with openbox right now lol | 02:20 |
| Guest5020 | @Jordan_U http://pastebin.com/6DFsPHAp | 02:20 |
| sproc | omgitsmit: Yes, and I select 'openbox' instead of the default window manager | 02:20 |
| ayesian | #linux guys saved the day haha | 02:20 |
| abhinavm | rashivar, so i started a new vnc session .. I got the xterm but no WM | 02:20 |
| omgitsmit | sproc: does the default wm work by any chance? | 02:21 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: yes good results from ping as well as network up and running with wifi and eth cable disconnected. but when i restart the machine loses networking and i have to plug the ethernet back in to enable networking manually through recovery | 02:21 |
| sproc | EriC^^: The perms are world-readable; none of u/g/o has execute perms, but this has not changed since before the upgrade | 02:21 |
| rashivar | ok.. show me the log and screenshot | 02:21 |
| sproc | omgitsmit: Last time I tried it worked fine, though I don't think I've tried since the upgrade | 02:21 |

| Jordan_U | Guest5020: Please be patient. | 02:22 |
| Guest5020 | Sure, sorry. | 02:22 |
| Mike321__ | well its not technically a wifi issue i dont think, its the networking in general. when i restart even with ethernet plugged in (regular boot) networking is not enabled. i have to go into recovery mode (with ethernet plugged in) and manually enable networking altogether. | 02:23 |
| Jordan_U | Guest5020: OK. I'm a little confused as to why that shows "ath9k" and "wl" kernel modules in use for your wireless card. ath9k is for atheros chipsets (which you have) and "wl" is for broadcom cards (which you don't have). | 02:24 |

| omgitsmit | is it like a empty destkop? | 02:24 |

| th3pun15h3r | so with a ubuntu 14.04 minimal install is there no lxde option just lubuntu core and lubuntu desktop? | 02:35 |
| Jordan_U | th3pun15h3r: You can always install Ubuntu minimal then install the lxde metapackage post-install. | 02:36 |
| Jordan_U | Guest5020: "iwlist scan" | 02:36 |
| th3pun15h3r | just wondering if there is a real performance difference and if not id figure lubuntu desktop would have most programs setup and features ootb | 02:36 |
| Guest68362 | hello , are there some bugs with gnome tweak tool? | 02:36 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: im having no luck, how about yourself? | 02:36 |
| Guest5020 | Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/XZV32Kxn | 02:37 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: how about using a different network manager like wicd? | 02:37 |
| Jordan_U | Guest5020: "dmesg" | 02:39 |

| th3pun15h3r | right now been using zorin os 9 lite look changed to mac and added xcompmgr skippy-xd and opensnap so I can aerosnap my windows with my mouse or keyboard shortcuts. It performs amazingly on the asus netbook im using now with 2gb of ram. I like eOS luna but when I tested it live on a usb, it ran so crappy. This setup I did with lxde runs fast and smooth. | 02:40 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321__: OH .. that is right, you also want WIFI .. try changing the setting in "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" to true ! .. and see if you can get the Network" icon active and usable ! | 02:40 |
| th3pun15h3r | so been thinking of making a distro setup this way for people that have hardware that doesnt support gala. Just have to figure out how to change the splash and logo screens and have a nice install setup like lubuntu etc. | 02:42 |
| th3pun15h3r | used remastersys a few times but nothing to make a polished nice looking distro. | 02:42 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: it says command not found | 02:43 |
| daftykins | th3pun15h3r: your convo is more general chat, probably more apt in #ubuntu-offtopic - especially since you refer to an unsupported distro | 02:43 |
| Mike321__ | Bashing-om: nvm | 02:43 |
| th3pun15h3r | ah kk thanks daftykins | 02:43 |

| ubottu | mattviator Mike321__: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 02:49 |

| Jordan_U | Guest5020: You're welcome. I'm confident that with an Ubuntu 14.04 or 12.04 LiveCD/USB you will not have the problem that's currently being reported in dmesg. I'm less so, but still pretty sure that your wireless card will work with Ubuntu 14.04 out of the box. | 02:52 |

| Mike321 | Bashing-om: ok bud, i cant get anything further then having to manually enable networking with every boot. i really appreciate all the help but i have work in the am and have to hit the sheets | 03:07 |
| TiK | Mike321: make a script for it | 03:08 |
| Bashing-om | Mike321: OK, we pick this back up tomorrow evening .. Lord willing . | 03:08 |
| TiK | Mike321: you can add it to run on boot | 03:08 |
| Mike321 | Bashing-om: ok dude, thanks alot for everything tonigt, and TiK i would if i knew how. | 03:09 |
| TiK | Bashing-om: have him make a script and have init or w/e execute it on boot up | 03:10 |
| Bashing-om | TiK: That is a workable hack, but should not be required ! The focus should be on fixing the problem - I think . | 03:12 |
| TiK | Bashing-om: good luck then | 03:12 |
| Bashing-om | TiK: :) . We can, because we can .. the 'buntu way . | 03:13 |

| Scunizi | I'm dropping in fresh drive and rsync-ing my /home to the appropriate partition. Then I'll install a fresh copy of 14.04.2 (currently on 12.04). Is there an easy way (apt-on-cd?) to make an installed package list and reinstall all my programs in one wack? | 03:16 |
| Jordan_U | !clone | Scunizi | 03:17 |
| ubottu | Scunizi: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can use the !software package "apt-clone" - See also !automate | 03:17 |
| bigpup3 | can anyone recommend a good dynamic bash shell prompt or motd/issue | 03:17 |
| omgitsmit | Scunizi: i recall using Aptik to backup my ppas and apps also | 03:17 |
| Scunizi | Jordan_U: thanks.. will that work from one vertion to the next? | 03:17 |
| Jordan_U | Scunizi: Note, I have no idea how well that works between Ubuntu versions, and I suspect it's not well. Why not just upgrade? | 03:17 |
| Scunizi | Jordan_U: I have a number of PPA's including x-swat that have to be wiped correctly otherwise the upgrade will get borked. It's happened on almost every upgrade I've done. | 03:18 |

| omgitsmit | ubuntu718: any errors in the logs? | 03:23 |
| pj_ | omgitsmit, is that a joke? | 03:23 |
| Bashing-om | Scunizi: '-y' auto answers 'yes' and 'dselect=upgrade' compares what is to be updated to what is on the list . BY the way, I consider this only valid same same release old to new install . | 03:24 |
| Scunizi | Bashing-om: I understand.. looks right-on for what I want. easy too. | 03:24 |

| matthew45 | U | 04:09 |
| omgitsmit | DarwinSurvivor, thats funny because the exact same thing happened to me today at work using Win7 | 04:09 |
| DarwinSurvivor | More importantly, how do I make sure that NEVER happens again?? | 04:10 |
| DarwinSurvivor | omgitsmit: Yeah, I'm aware of the issue in 7, but I've never seen it happen on any Linux machines | 04:10 |
| omgitsmit | DarwinSurvivor: you want to disable automatic updates? | 04:10 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I had sort-recently done an apt-get install (minor stuff), but not even any updates | 04:10 |
| RELOADING | Like.. updating when you shut down the machine? | 04:11 |
| DarwinSurvivor | omgitsmit: I'm not sure that's even what it was | 04:11 |
| DarwinSurvivor | If it *was* the update system, I *will* be filing a bug report because that behaviour is 100% unacceptable | 04:11 |
| retroispresto | Oi | 04:12 |
| retroispresto | Who kicked fazz? | 04:12 |
| DarwinSurvivor | But whatever it was doesn't seem to have logged anything in /var/log (at least not that I've found) | 04:13 |
| RELOADING | Nice | 04:13 |
| omgitsmit | DarwinSurvivor: i was lucky, i had only a browser open doing some research | 04:13 |
| omgitsmit | DarwinSurvivor: chrome picked up right where i had left off | 04:14 |
| omgitsmit | DarwinSurvivor: do you think there's a way to replicate the issue? | 04:14 |
| EriC^^ | DarwinSurvivor: type tail -n20 /var/log/apt/history.log | 04:15 |
| EriC^^ | DarwinSurvivor: and tail /var/log/dpkg.log | 04:15 |
| DarwinSurvivor | omgitsmit: The only things in the last 12 hours are from me installing xbindkeys and mpc, neither of which pulled many dependencies | 04:16 |
| omgitsmit | DarwinSurvivor: i didnt know apt had logs, check with what EriC^^ said above | 04:17 |
| omgitsmit | never had to check i guess haha | 04:17 |
| DarwinSurvivor | That's one of the few things I like about Windows over Linux. Short of a power failure, Windows ALWAYS records the cause of a reboot/shutdown. | 04:19 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I saw the dialog for a split second, so I'm going through Google Images to see if I can recognise it | 04:22 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I looked very much like the smaller dialog in http://news.softpedia.com/images/extra/LINUX/large/upgradeubuntu1110to1204-large_011.jpg but the restart button was definitely on the *right* side | 04:23 |
| DarwinSurvivor | and I don't recall the blue "i" icon | 04:23 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I think it had an orange icon of some kind | 04:23 |
| Doc-Saintly | Hi all, I'm hoping for an unbiased answer - what's the main difference between Xubuntu or Linux Mint with XFCE? Isn't Mint based on Ubuntu? | 04:27 |
| cfhowlett | Doc-Saintly, xubuntu and ubuntu are official, fully supported distros from parent company canonical. mint is not. | 04:28 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Doc-Saintly: You'd be using XFCE in both cases, I'm not sure if their versions of it are different at all. Ubuntu and Mint do differ a bit in which other packages are available though | 04:28 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Doc-Saintly: cfhowlett is correct, Ubuntu is supported by the Ubuntu community, Mint is supported by the Mint community. Don't expect much cross-support though. | 04:29 |
| s7even | Hello. | 04:29 |
| cfhowlett | Doc-Saintly, very succinctly, mint is NOT supported via ubuntu irc or forums. | 04:30 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Doc-Saintly: The Ubuntu community is definitely *larger*, but luckily the documentation for one usually applies to the other (except for repository stuff) | 04:30 |
| Doc-Saintly | one thing I read is that ubuntu has some upcoming structural changes, which mint doesn't plan to include | 04:30 |
| diegoviola | hi | 04:30 |
| svetlana | hello | 04:31 |
| diegoviola | are there boot parameters so I can force keyboard layout, locale and timezone from the boot cd/usb? | 04:31 |
| diegoviola | live cd/usb* | 04:31 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Doc-Saintly: do you have an example? | 04:31 |
| Doc-Saintly | DarwinSurvivor: nope :( Just the overview said there were some big changes coming, and mint plants to use 14.04 for the next 2 years | 04:31 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Doc-Saintly: news to me, but I haven't been following it very closely | 04:32 |
| DarwinSurvivor | diegoviola: is this for interactive testing/install or automated? | 04:32 |
| diegoviola | DarwinSurvivor: testing install | 04:33 |
| diegoviola | DarwinSurvivor: I mean, when booting the live usb | 04:33 |
| DarwinSurvivor | diegoviola: you can set the keyboard layout in the installers interface (tested with 14.04 using Colemak last week) | 04:33 |
| diegoviola | DarwinSurvivor: without installing | 04:33 |
| Doc-Saintly | ok, thanks all :) | 04:33 |
| DarwinSurvivor | diegoviola: is there a reason you need it to be a boot paramater? You can easily change the layout once the live-cd is running | 04:34 |
| Doc-Saintly | ok, thanks all :) | 04:34 |

| omgitsmit | mAngo: if you dont mind running chrome, you can just browse to netflix since its html5 | 04:55 |
| mAngo | I'm on Chrome currently. Version 40(the latest build). I just keep getting "An unexpected error" | 04:56 |
| mAngo | When I search the error it seems like it has something to do with the security restrictions that Netflix calls for. But when I went and looked, I have everything installed. | 04:57 |
| nnnjjjgggg | mAngo: yes | 04:57 |
| DarwinSurvivor | mAngo: are you using google-chrome or chromium-browser? | 04:57 |
| mAngo | Google Chrome | 04:57 |
| nnnjjjgggg | mAngo: go on | 04:58 |
| omgitsmit | mAngo: sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:ehoover/compholio | 04:58 |
| omgitsmit | mAngo: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install netflix-desktop | 04:59 |
| omgitsmit | thats what i run | 04:59 |
| DarwinSurvivor | mAngo: if you set up a user-agent swither, try disabling it. Netflix removed that restriction a few months ago and now agent-switchers actually CAUSE errors | 04:59 |
| DarwinSurvivor | NO | 04:59 |
| omgitsmit | chrome eats up my memory | 04:59 |
| DarwinSurvivor | netflix-desktop is old and there are MUCH better ways to do it | 04:59 |
| mAngo | I actually used to use one but I got rid of it for exactly that reason. | 04:59 |
| omgitsmit | oh? i still use it :x | 04:59 |
| DarwinSurvivor | omgitsmit: native google-chrome is much easier, faster and smoother (also WAY less buggy) | 05:00 |
| omgitsmit | DarwinSurvivor: yeah but i got plugin happy one night.. and yeah | 05:00 |
| omgitsmit | chrome off = good for me | 05:00 |

| DarwinSurvivor | mAngo: where did you get your copy of google chrome (repo, ppa, google website, etc)? | 05:00 |
| mAngo | Google's website, then it installed the .deb through the software store | 05:00 |
| omgitsmit | thats how i did it | 05:01 |
| DarwinSurvivor | mAngo: is it possible you *also* have chromium-browser installed? | 05:02 |
| mAngo | Nah. I'm on a fresh install of Ubuntu. Literally the only thing I've installed afterwards is Chrome - purely to watch Netflix. | 05:02 |
| DarwinSurvivor | mAngo: and you got the correct architecture right (32 vs 64 bit)? | 05:03 |
| mAngo | Right. I got 64 bit. | 05:03 |
| mattviator | for netflix to work all you need is a biuld of chrome 37 or higher if i recall and nss installed | 05:03 |
| DarwinSurvivor | mAngo: is there an error code at the bottom-left corner of the screen? | 05:03 |
| mAngo | Yeah, let me copy and paste that in | 05:03 |
| mAngo | M7063-1913 | 05:04 |
| mAngo | When I google that I get a link talking about needing the correct security something or another. When I finally tried to download that it opened the software center and told me it wouldn't work because it's already installed. | 05:05 |
| sennn | someone just scold me in plrivate channel !!!! for no reason | 05:05 |
| sennn | the name is rateder | 05:06 |
| omgitsmit | sennn: same here | 05:06 |
| DarwinSurvivor | mAngo: is anything disabled in "chrome://plugins"? | 05:06 |
| sennn | omgitsmit, damn it | 05:07 |
| mAngo | DarwinSurvivor: nope, everything is enabled | 05:07 |
| mattviator | M7063-1913 is probably from mismatched Network Security Service libraries versions | 05:10 |
| mAngo | Yeah that's what I was trying to remember the name of. When I found the download for a current version it only told me that it was already installed. | 05:11 |

| mAngo | Yeah, that looks just like mine. How strange! Maybe just a restart or something? | 05:22 |
| DarwinSurvivor | AegNuddel: the built-in remote viewing only works if they are on the same network (or via port forwarding, but that is a VERY bad idea) | 05:22 |
| DarwinSurvivor | mAngo: worth a shot | 05:22 |
| lotuspsychje | AegNuddel: i agree with DarwinSurvivor , be carefull with remote software..use teamviewer for single use | 05:23 |
| mAngo | Alright I'll try that. Thanks guys! | 05:23 |
| DarwinSurvivor | AegNuddel: if they are on the same network as you (at home, etc), they just need a VNC client | 05:23 |

| lotuspsychje | lobsterkush: you can check with lsb_release -a | 05:34 |
| lobsterkush | would apt-get update/upgrade do that? | 05:34 |
| lotuspsychje | yes | 05:34 |
| lobsterkush | yes | 05:34 |
| lotuspsychje | okay | 05:34 |
| lotuspsychje | lobsterkush: maybe check the realtek website for linux firmware/drivers to update | 05:35 |
| lotuspsychje | lobsterkush: some realtek wifi drivers have to tuned a bit, to get working best | 05:35 |
| lotuspsychje | lobsterkush: also check your syslog and dmesg logs, see if anything usefull show up on your wifi issue | 05:36 |
| lobsterkush | its weird cause it was working perfectly earlier | 05:36 |
| lobsterkush | ill check it out though | 05:36 |
| lotuspsychje | lobsterkush: did it go weird after an update perhaps? | 05:36 |
| lotuspsychje | !realtek | lobsterkush check also here | 05:37 |
| ubottu | lobsterkush check also here: some help for recent Realtek chipsets can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/RealtekRTL8187b | 05:37 |

| lotuspsychje | azizLIGHT: we reccomend chromium-browser | 05:48 |
| lotuspsychje | azizLIGHT: its lightweight, fast and nice for ubuntu | 05:48 |

| significance | Thanks lotuspsychje - how come the reference to tab though? | 05:58 |
| EriC^^ | significance: if you type sudo apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64-signed , what happens? | 05:58 |
| EriC^^ | significance: also, type sudo parted -l | 05:58 |
| significance | I didn't have that installed - just grub-efi-amd64 (no signed. | 05:59 |
| lotuspsychje | significance: just wanna help you follow the support with EriC^^ | 05:59 |
| significance | Awesome - thanks! | 05:59 |
| significance | EriC^^: Sorry, internet is stalling - give me a sec. | 05:59 |

| significance_ | EriC^^: Still there? | 06:02 |
| EriC^^ | yes | 06:02 |
| EriC^^ | reading that guide you posted, i've helped a person with mac and efi before but he wasn't dual booting, did you follow the exact steps in the guide, where are you at in it? | 06:03 |
| significance_ | EriC^^: I'm directly at the grub-install step. | 06:04 |
| EriC^^ | so you did everything before that | 06:05 |
| EriC^^ | formatted the efi partition etc. | 06:05 |
| significance_ | Yep - except, odd, it's back to fat32. I'll get that fixed - brb | 06:05 |
| significance_ | Never mind. Running mount gives this line at bottom: /dev/sda1 on /boot/efi type hfsplus (rw) | 06:06 |
| significance_ | EriC^^: what was the other info that could help? | 06:06 |
| Prometheian | I have an Acer tablet running Windows 8.1 that I want to put Ubuntu on. It won't boot from my usb drive and if I run the Ubuntu installer to modify the boot it errors out. Any ideas how to get around this? | 06:07 |
| lotuspsychje | Prometheian: maybe the XDA forums have a port to ubuntu touch for your device | 06:09 |
| Skype | can you dualboot? | 06:09 |
| Skype | hey maybe i can get windows 10 to run on my android | 06:10 |
| lotuspsychje | Prometheian: is it an acer iconia? | 06:10 |
| EriC^^ | significance_: well try to append /dev/sda to the end | 06:10 |
| Prometheian | Acer aspire switch 10 | 06:10 |
| significance_ | EriC^^: end of what? | 06:10 |
| EriC^^ | significance_: grub-install --target .... /dev/sda | 06:10 |
| significance_ | Aah - thanks! | 06:11 |
| lotuspsychje | Skype: this is not the channel to discuss | 06:11 |
| significance_ | EriC^^: same error. The error also says at the end "Check your device.map" - should I take a look at that? Where can I find it? | 06:11 |
| po2n | selamat siang all | 06:11 |
| lotuspsychje | Prometheian: there's a thread about it here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2234219 | 06:12 |

| lotuspsychje | !english | po2n | 06:12 |
| ubottu | po2n: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 06:12 |
| Prometheian | Reading, ty! | 06:12 |
| significance_ | EriC^^: same error. Does it help to mention that /boot doesn't contain any .efi files? None were generated in the earlier process. | 06:13 |
| EriC^^ | this is the process that is going to generate them | 06:13 |
| EriC^^ | significance_: try just typing grub-install --recheck /dev/sda | 06:14 |
| significance_ | Will pastebin the error -thanks! | 06:14 |

| significance_ | Oh. | 06:17 |
| significance_ | Wait, never mind - misread it. | 06:17 |
| significance_ | Supposedly, sda1 is FAT32 but mount claims it's HFS+ | 06:18 |
| EriC^^ | significance_: ok, try sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda | 06:18 |
| significance_ | EriC^^: http://pastebin.com/PH8upVuy - weird, claims code is FFFF instead of AF00 (for HFS+) - should I repartition/ | 06:20 |
| significance_ | ? | 06:20 |
| EriC^^ | yeah why not | 06:21 |
| EriC^^ | type sudo cgdisk /dev/sda | 06:21 |
| teward | significance_: if I had a hex editor to examine the drive with, I'd dig in to see what actually is going on in that partition - however, that's only 200MB in partition 1 - that might be a system restore partition or such | 06:21 |
| significance_ | teward - I put it aside as an EFI partition. | 06:21 |

| Skype | but can you change the placing of the launchbar? | 06:23 |
| significance_ | so EriC^^ - got it fixed up to AF00, gdisk -l verifies that as HFS+. I'll try re-settting up the partition and get back to you. Thanks! | 06:23 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 06:24 |
| EriC^^ | no problem | 06:24 |

| twiler | The game is NOT illegally donwloaded, first of all. I just want to get that part out of the way first lol. So, I have copied the directory of the game onto my hard drive, and as far as I can tell, it has no "install.exe" or anything like that. The closest thing in the directory to anything a native windows user (like myself) it has inside of the directory is "game_name.exe", but whenever I double click that, I get the following error, fr | 06:34 |

| Prometheian | Nope! Trying to figure out why it won't do a proper resolution. | 06:50 |
| DarwinSurvivor | twiler: nevermind, their download page has a directory listing! you want to run Quake3-Urt.x86_64 | 06:51 |
| DarwinSurvivor | twiler: because they use .zip for the full game, you'll have to run "chmod +x Quake3-Urt.x86_64" first | 06:51 |
| significance | EriC^^: are you there? | 06:51 |

| svetlana | terminal, and don't add space after the + | 06:53 |

| significance | EriC^^: Since the /etc/fstab is different in the USB, how do I mount my fs? | 06:54 |

| TvL2386 | Blue11, what do you mean by that? | 07:30 |
| vkll_116 | anyone?????? | 07:30 |
| TvL2386 | Blue11, I just thought it was weird they were not on the same version. I had not expected to see different kernel version in apt for the same ubuntu release | 07:30 |
| Blue11 | TvL2386: are you trying to backport the new kernel onto 12.04? | 07:31 |
| Blue11 | 3.13 v 32 broke wine -- version 45 fixed t. | 07:31 |
| TvL2386 | Blue11, it's just a normal package from the normal repositories. Installable with apt-get install linux-image-3.13.0-45-generic | 07:31 |
| Blue11 | TvL2386: it should be okay - but if not you can always revert to a previous kernel. | 07:32 |
| TvL2386 | Blue11, on ubuntu-12.04 so it's not backporting. It's a normal package | 07:32 |
| TvL2386 | Blue11, but is it recommended :-) | 07:32 |
| TvL2386 | Blue11, or is it safer to stay on the train that's currently working | 07:32 |
| Blue11 | TvL2386: I tried to backport a newer kernel with debian/wheezy and mythtv became very unstable. | 07:32 |

| Doc-Saintly | I'm getting an error when updating, it's saying it's out of disk space, but my root has 164G free ;S | 08:14 |
| Layman247 | My question about Gparted is that when formatting a drive, it does not give the options for setting clusters. I need to know if there is an alternate way to get my drive formatted to FAT32 with 32kb clusters. | 08:14 |
| Layman247 | *is about | 08:14 |
| cfhowlett | Layman247, I've never messed with clusters, but I cannot imagine that gparted doesn't offer it. gparted is merely a graphical front end to the command line tools. If, indeed, the clustering options you're looking for aren't available, consider using the command line for your partition/formatting needs. | 08:15 |
| Tex_Nick | cfhowlett: i think that's the first i've heard of UbuntuStudio ... is that mostly used by DJ's ? | 08:16 |
| Layman247 | Well, I have Gparted up and no cluster options are to be found, so I'm guessing I'll have to do it through terminal -_- | 08:17 |
| cfhowlett | Tex_Nick, multimedia: /publishing/graphic design/photography/audio and video ... | 08:17 |
| Layman247 | My other options is EaseUS Partition Master and that program is bloated with Malware | 08:17 |
| Doc-Saintly | Layman247: if you're just trying to set the cluster size, even windows default formatter can do that | 08:19 |
| Tex_Nick | cfhowlett: ok thanks ... looking at ubuntustudio.org now ;-) | 08:19 |
| cfhowlett | Tex_Nick nice! | 08:19 |
| Layman247 | hmm, yeah, looks like it Doc-Saintly, of course I havent used Windows partitioning since Win Vista X'D | 08:20 |

| jirido | Hi Ubuntuers. I sitting here setting up a server and wonder what could be considered to be the most secure mailserver setup for ubuntu, if someone with experience know and care to share i could make my day. | 08:56 |
| lotuspsychje | !mailserver | jirido | 08:58 |
| ubottu | jirido: Ubuntu supports the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and provides mail server software of many kinds. You can install a basic email handling configuration with the "Mail server" task during installation, or with the "tasksel" command. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer and https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/email-services.html | 08:58 |
| lotuspsychje | jirido: the security part is very relative, to be secure depends on many factors | 08:59 |
| lotuspsychje | jirido: you can also ask the #ubuntu-server guys | 08:59 |
| jirido | lotuspsychje: I saw that postfix - Davecot was a much used combo | 09:00 |
| jirido | But this server i want to learn to make most secure | 09:01 |
| === juboxi is now known as jubo2 | ||
| jirido | lotuspsychje: Ok I go for a try at U-server. thanx | 09:02 |
| lotuspsychje | jirido: no sweat and good luck mate | 09:02 |
| Gr3yW0rM | hey guys | 09:04 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: welcome | 09:04 |
| Gr3yW0rM | I've a question | 09:04 |
| Gr3yW0rM | about ubuntu on Mac | 09:05 |
| Gr3yW0rM | why ubuntu boot is more slower on a mac that other hardware? | 09:05 |
| Gr3yW0rM | "more slower" because is so slow | 09:06 |
| Siente | Hello guys, how to install the drivers for my ASUS GTX 760 DirectCU II OC 2GB ? | 09:07 |
| RustyShackleford | i have a strange problem with google-chrome and ubuntu 14.10 | 09:08 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: you know if your card has optimus technology? | 09:08 |
| RustyShackleford | i can't type into google chrome | 09:08 |
| lotuspsychje | RustyShackleford: did you try chromium-browser? | 09:08 |
| RustyShackleford | it will work fine, and then suddenly it doesn't respond to keyboard. Other programs still work fin | 09:08 |
| RustyShackleford | lotuspsychje: well... thats not a real answer | 09:08 |
| RustyShackleford | did you try an alternative? | 09:09 |
| RustyShackleford | on the other hand, I could try it and see if it works haha | 09:09 |
| lotuspsychje | RustyShackleford: keep in mind that chromium is the ubuntu alternative for chrome | 09:09 |
| lotuspsychje | RustyShackleford: and officialy supported | 09:09 |
| RustyShackleford | well i DO like chrome's pdf reader | 09:10 |
| lotuspsychje | RustyShackleford: you can also try creating a new user or profile and see if it makes a difference | 09:10 |
| Gr3yW0rM | RustyShackleford: how you install it? | 09:10 |
| RustyShackleford | but yeah, i suppose thats a decent work around | 09:10 |
| Gr3yW0rM | RustyShackleford: I mean, from where? | 09:10 |
| RustyShackleford | Gr3yW0rM: downloaded the package from google, it also adds a ppa | 09:10 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, no idea? | 09:10 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: wich mac and ubuntu version do you have? | 09:10 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: is your card nvidia based? | 09:10 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: I've an intel mac, mac book pro 8.1 | 09:11 |
| lotuspsychje | !mac | Gr3yW0rM did you look here maybe? | 09:11 |
| ubottu | Gr3yW0rM did you look here maybe?: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a Mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages | 09:11 |
| Gr3yW0rM | OSx system is a great deception, | 09:11 |
| svip | In Nautilus, my blank CD appears mounted, but cannot be ejected. It is not mounted and the CD in the disc driver is a completely different CD. | 09:12 |
| Gr3yW0rM | and I try to run it with ubuntu | 09:12 |
| RustyShackleford | anyway, thats a strange problem | 09:13 |
| Gr3yW0rM | yes, once ubuntu is running, is so great, the main problem is the time to boot | 09:13 |
| RustyShackleford | does chrome have a channel here? | 09:13 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: did you try F1 to see what hangs? | 09:13 |
| lotuspsychje | !alis | RustyShackleford | 09:13 |

| RustyShackleford | oh cool, found something on askubuntu.com | 09:14 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: and tweak your startup items list | 09:14 |
| dsol | After I installed xubuntu in ubuntu (and removed xubuntu again) I needed to login 2 times after a lock. It increased to 3 after a week. Now I need to login 5 times. Can anyone help me out? | 09:14 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: I installed it | 09:14 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: type this in terminal: sudo sed -i "s/NoDisplay=true/NoDisplay=false/g" /etc/xdg/autostart/*.desktop | 09:15 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, yes it's nvidia gtx760 | 09:15 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: then you can see full list of startup services, and disable those you dont want | 09:15 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: plz check the official website for your card, and check if it has optimus technology | 09:15 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: ok, let me do it | 09:15 |
| Gr3yW0rM | ;) | 09:16 |
| RustyShackleford | ubuntu is great, but sometimes over complicated | 09:16 |
| RustyShackleford | another one I have problems with is dnsmasq | 09:17 |
| RustyShackleford | when it works, you don't notice | 09:17 |
| RustyShackleford | when it doesn't, your internet connection is fucked | 09:17 |
| lotuspsychje | RustyShackleford: plz keep the language familly friendly | 09:17 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, it doesn't have a optimus technology | 09:17 |
| Gr3yW0rM | RustyShackleford: I think that Ubuntu is a filosophy | 09:17 |
| Gr3yW0rM | RustyShackleford: You never give up! ;) | 09:18 |
| RustyShackleford | lotuspsychje: sorry i apologize. Some channels are more lenient | 09:18 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: ok, good did you check your additional drivers icon? | 09:19 |
| RustyShackleford | Gr3yW0rM: i just keep a text file with different things that gave me trouble in the past | 09:19 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, which one should I install the proprietary tested or just the proprietary ? | 09:20 |
| RustyShackleford | i will have to make another entry haha | 09:20 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: go for the one that work best, test them out yourself mate | 09:20 |
| Gr3yW0rM | RustyShackleford: Advice, always, before any modification, take a *.bkp file | 09:21 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, okay thanks | 09:21 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: wich ubuntu version is this? | 09:21 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, ubuntu gnome 14.04.02 LTS I believe | 09:22 |
| lotuspsychje | ok nice | 09:22 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, thank you very much | 09:22 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: test them out wicj one has best performance | 09:23 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, isn't it better to download the latest drivers from nvidia and install them manually or ? | 09:23 |
| Siente | which is the best practice ? | 09:23 |
| Siente | I am a newbie | 09:23 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: i would test the ones in your list first | 09:23 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: do you have graphics problems right now? | 09:23 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: you can check your current driver loaded with: sudo lshw -C video | 09:24 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: you can also finetune unwanted services that doesnt list startup items, like cups this way: http://askubuntu.com/questions/451883/not-able-to-disable-the-cups-service-using-boot-up-manager | 09:25 |
| Doc-Saintly | my /boot is full, how do I know what I can rmeove? | 09:26 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: also tweaking grub "quiet splash" to "" can give you lil faster text booting | 09:26 |

| Siente | lotuspsychje, I'll check out If I have any problems in a moment | 09:27 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: if you installed ubuntu 14.04.2 fresh with internet+ updates, your grafix driver might already be up to date | 09:27 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, how to check out If I need to reboot or not after installing the nvidia driver? | 09:27 |
| Doc-Saintly | thanks lotuspsychje | 09:28 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: thanks, I'll try to do it | 09:28 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: if you switched a driver from your additional drivers list, a reboot might do some magic :p | 09:28 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, okay I am going to try it out btw how to change my hz of my monitor from 60 to 120 or 144 ? | 09:29 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: but i wouldnt switch, if you dont experience any graphics problems right | 09:29 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, because when I go to settings -> displays there's no option to change the Hz | 09:29 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: the sed command above did nothing | 09:29 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, I've been experience lack of performance, but I am not sure if it's from the flash player in firefox while watching streams in twitch it's lagging | 09:29 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, or it was lagging I should check out any ideas why? | 09:30 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: it doesnt do anything in terminal, it just shows you full list of services in your startup items | 09:30 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, maybe it's from the flash player? | 09:30 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: can you sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras plz | 09:30 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: ok | 09:30 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: see if it was installed or not | 09:30 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, no it is not installed | 09:31 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: ok install that mate | 09:31 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: that should fix flash/codecs issues | 09:31 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: you might wanna install vlc also, to check the quality of your video playing | 09:32 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: can I disable all service i want? that's not produce an error on the next boot | 09:33 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, I have VLC and it's fine I guess | 09:33 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: no, some services are needed and some are not, its important to look that up | 09:33 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, thank you very much I am going to reboot | 09:34 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: I'm gonna reboot | 09:35 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: i disable orca,cups,backup, ssh-agent,remote desktop | 09:35 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: ok good luck | 09:36 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: try F1 at your boot, see what fails exactly | 09:36 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: ok | 09:37 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: youtubes are fine now? | 09:38 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, hmm 1 sec | 09:38 |

| lotuspsychje | itsmeagain: you have a static or dynamic ip? | 09:39 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, well in twitch when I click fullscreen on any stream it's crashing and it's not fine | 09:39 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: and vlc is fine? | 09:39 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, it's not crashing, but the image is freezing and nothing is happening with alt+tab it's fixed, but not in full screen again | 09:39 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, yes vlc seems fine | 09:40 |

| nextech | 0.Fazz are you there? | 09:40 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, I have installed the flash player plugin for the firefox | 09:40 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: did you switch a grafix driver yet? | 09:40 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, should I install chromium and try out with chromium ? | 09:40 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, yes it's switched | 09:40 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: maybe do a few switchec first to see differences | 09:41 |
| Siente | well I've had the same issue before switching from nouveau to nvidia | 09:41 |
| lotuspsychje | hmm | 09:41 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: you could try chromium yes, to see if its your card or the flash | 09:41 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: wb, makes any difference? | 09:42 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, okay | 09:42 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, I am installing the chromium-browser right now | 09:42 |
| lotuspsychje | cool | 09:42 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: seems a little bit faster | 09:42 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: how much time are we talking about? | 09:43 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: I run F1 while booting, but there is any error | 09:43 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, but how to install flash player on chromium ? | 09:43 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: chromium got flash builtin | 09:43 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: should work out of the box | 09:43 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, it's telling me that I need to download flash player? | 09:44 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, it isn't working | 09:44 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: try dmesg in terminal, to see whats going on | 09:44 |
| Gr3yW0rM | lotuspsychje: ok | 09:44 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, You need Adobe Flash Player to use chat. | 09:44 |
| Siente | Download it from Adobe. | 09:44 |

| lotuspsychje | Siente: well in my opinion, its best to install ubuntu with cable + updates during setup + third party software enabled | 10:24 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: this way ubuntu also chooses best drivers for your system | 10:25 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, but I don't have any idea why my inet is not running automatically on Windows and before it was running automatically, but now my DHCP is not getting IP automatically so I have to do it manually | 10:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: or wifi stick that could get you online? | 10:26 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, what do you mean? | 10:26 |
| svetlana | usb stick | 10:26 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, on windows I don't have any problems with my inet | 10:26 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: to get connected to internet at your ubuntu setup | 10:26 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, how to fix it what do I need to do? | 10:27 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, because I can't get it what you mean | 10:27 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: well you still got flash issues right now? | 10:28 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, no on chromium I don't have flash issues I believe | 10:29 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, but I would like to fix the problem with my inet connection | 10:29 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, it's DHCP with automatic settings isn't working dunno why and when I am installing ubuntu I can't get online | 10:29 |
| lotuspsychje | Siente: you cant browse? | 10:30 |
| lotuspsychje | Gr3yW0rM: better now? | 10:30 |
| Siente | lotuspsychje, I can when I set the settings manual when I choose method manual instead of DHCP ( Automatic ) | 10:30 |
| lotuspsychje | !dhcp | Siente | 10:31 |
| ubottu | Siente: dhcp is Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, a protocol for automatic IP assignment from a router. Ubuntu uses dhclient as a DHCP client but other ones (and DHCP servers too) can be obtained from the !repos. More info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DHCP | 10:31 |

In addition to the ipv4 inet static setup I also have "iface p3p1 inet6 auto" in my /etc/network/interfaces. Could this line make everything use dhcp in case my connection drops?

| sp4rc | it has been working before while running gentoo linux on it | 11:27 |

| sp4rc | i have just realized, that i can wake up my computer when i shut it down previously by using 'poweroff' instead of 'shutdown -h now' | 12:01 |
| sp4rc | also the NIC leds are off when using 'shutdown -h now' | 12:02 |
| Tex_Nick | halp: was the 7800 GPU integrated into the motherbord or a peripheral card ... you must have shut down the PC to add a HD3650 card ??? | 12:02 |

| sp4rc | halp, how can i configure the powerdown mode used by 'shutdown'? | 12:02 |
| halp | sp4rc: shutdown means to turn off, obviously, and not in some opwersave state | 12:02 |
| halp | TexNick: yes, the 7850 and 7870 cards are NOT integrated as they take 200W of power and cost A LOT of money... | 12:04 |
| Tex_Nick | halp: what make & model PC are you using ? | 12:05 |
| sp4rc | so how can i define/configure into which state the computer shut's down? | 12:08 |
| auronandace | sp4rc: the man pages show you what options you have to use the poweroff and shutdown commands | 12:10 |
| bekks | sp4rc: Thats defined in the DSDT table in your BIOS. Having issues like yours, it is quite obvious that the DSDT table is broken, which means: mostly likely it works correctly with windows only. Fixing that is a quite lengthy and complicated process, which involves extracting, decoding, finxing, recompiling it, along with a self-compiled kernel. | 12:10 |
| bekks | sp4rc: The quick and easy solution is just using "shutdown -h now" from a terminal or a starter. | 12:11 |
| sp4rc | auronandace, i am aware of that. the point is, that when shutting down the system via the GUI (unity) i can't WOL the computer (NIC led's are off) | 12:11 |
| sp4rc | the powering down the system using 'poweroff' i can WOL the computer | 12:11 |
| sp4rc | which means i need a way to configure the shutdown-behaviour of unity | 12:11 |

| EriC^^ | btw the mouse is dead in windows :( | 13:02 |
| koding123 | EriC^^, tried, sudo shutdown or sudo reboot ? | 13:02 |
| EriC^^ | i'm in win8 | 13:02 |
| Hi-Angel | Hello, does anybody know an article about setting up a wi-fi LAN? Couldn't find anything on that :( | 13:02 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: mm :(, didn't do dist-upgrade, should i? | 13:02 |
| solsTiCe | EriC^^: win+X | 13:02 |
| koding123 | EriC^^, then its a hardware problem | 13:02 |
| EriC^^ | koding123 it worked perfectly for a bit after i hibernated by mistake, is there no hope? | 13:03 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, what are you trying to do actually? get both Plasma 4 and Plasma 5 or just Plasma 4? | 13:03 |
| TheBigDeal | bekks: actually when i do : sudo apt-get install plasma5 etc etc, it tells me that it is going to remove kubuntu-desktop | 13:03 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: plasma5, and it would be great if both together | 13:03 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: dist-upgrade? | 13:05 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, yep run, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 13:05 |
| divBy0 | how can i find out what channel my wifi is on | 13:06 |
| divBy0 | on a public hotspot | 13:06 |
| EriC^^ | koding123: ok, im back in ubuntu now | 13:07 |
| TheBigDeal | EriC^^: How you feel :) ? | 13:07 |
| EriC^^ | glad yet i need the touchpad to work | 13:08 |
| EriC^^ | would suck to have to use a mouse all the time in bed and stuff | 13:08 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, the thing is AFAIK, you can't use both, to have to use either one | 13:08 |
| koding123 | EriC^^, are you sure its not a hardware problem? | 13:09 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: No problem, just can't see it the the login screen and that's problem | 13:09 |
| EriC^^ | koding123: what do you mean? it started after the soda fell | 13:09 |
| TheBigDeal | s/the the/in the | 13:09 |
| EriC^^ | koding123: but it worked sporatically at first, then it worked perfectly fine for a bit | 13:09 |
| EriC^^ | now it's just dead | 13:10 |
| koding123 | EriC^^, yep thats what I am saying, probably that damaged your laptop;s touchpad | 13:10 |
| EriC^^ | i've poured sodas coffee etc. etc. and they've never done this | 13:10 |
| EriC^^ | :( | 13:10 |

| jellow | divBy0: Have you looked at iwlist command? "sudo iwlist scanning <interface>" | 13:10 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: Everything is dist-upgraded, what next? | 13:10 |
| EriC^^ | koding123: should i try blowing air on it between the buttons? | 13:11 |
| EriC^^ | or maybe taking it apart and cleaning it? | 13:11 |
| EriC^^ | ( somehow ) | 13:11 |
| EriC^^ | koding123: xinput doesn't list it | 13:12 |
| jellow | divBy0: Sorry should be iwlist <interface> scanning , look at man files I don't have access to them. | 13:12 |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, you installed plasma 5, that's your default desktop . you've upgraded from plasma 4 | 13:12 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: I removed it, so i can install kubuntu-desktop, and read some help :( | 13:13 |
| stephan288 | hi all | 13:14 |
| WaranZKomodo | hey | 13:14 |
| WaranZKomodo | what's up? | 13:14 |
| stephan288 | i have kind of a noob question if thats ok | 13:14 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: I think that there's no way to install them both together (plasma4 and 5) | 13:14 |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, run dist-upgrade to bring in all the new upgrades | 13:15 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: done. | 13:15 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, then reboot | 13:15 |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, no there isn't | 13:15 |
| divBy0 | jellow: just got it, thanks :) | 13:15 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: rebooting.... | 13:15 |
| TheBigDeal | be right back | 13:15 |
| EriC^^ | koding123: it shows in /var/log/syslog psmouse serio1: synaptics: Touchpad model: 1, fw: 7.5, id: 0x1e0b1, caps: 0xf00173/0x240000/0xa2400, board id: 2068, fw id: 1028260 | 13:15 |
| stephan288 | i have an dell optiplex 740 and tryin to install ubuntu, the latest and after rebooting my mouse and keybord, both usb, seem to hand and stutter | 13:16 |
| stephan288 | hang | 13:16 |
| MonkeyDust | stephan288 the latest... would that be 14.10 or 15.04? | 13:17 |
| stephan288 | 14 ist the latest i found | 13:17 |
| stephan288 | ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64 is the iso i am using | 13:18 |
| MonkeyDust | stephan288 are thre keyboard and mouse bluetooth connected? | 13:18 |
| stephan288 | no sir, both usb | 13:19 |
| koding123 | EriC^^, so its getting detected? | 13:19 |
| TheBigDeal | Evening | 13:19 |
| stephan288 | it works fine during install and after reboot they seem to "stutter" | 13:19 |
| koding123 | EriC^^, so the touchpad works in win? | 13:19 |
| ioria | usb legacy maybe ? | 13:20 |
| stephan288 | the dell optiplex has no ps/2 so i cant try | 13:20 |
| MonkeyDust | stephan288 and is this the first time you install ubuntu? | 13:20 |
| TalesOfWinnetou | MonkeyDust, so its getting detected ? | 13:20 |
| stephan288 | on this machine yes, in others i did before and never any trouble | 13:21 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: Everything is fine i dist-upgraded except and error message at the bottom says : the component 'showdesktop' is missing or something like that | 13:21 |
| MonkeyDust | TalesOfWinnetou come again? sure it's me you have to address? | 13:21 |
| EriC^^ | koding123: no it doesn't | 13:22 |
| EriC^^ | it shows up in syslog but not xinput | 13:23 |
| stephan288 | i think the problem is the usb, but i cant figure it out or find a website | 13:23 |
| kurjak | no | 13:23 |
| stephan288 | it works fine on vmware | 13:23 |
| koding123 | EriC^^, then definitely a hardware issue | 13:23 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: I'm confused about what's happening here :( | 13:24 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, how can I say? when you can't even tell me what PPA you have used | 13:25 |
| stephan288 | so MonkeyDust, any idea what might be the problem? | 13:25 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: PPA?, didn't i tell you? | 13:25 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: we said it is kubuntu next | 13:25 |
| TheBigDeal | don't we? | 13:25 |
| ioria | stephan288: what about the video drivers ? | 13:26 |
| MonkeyDust | stephan288 no, only thing on my mind, is usb2/3 related, but i'm not familiar enough with that | 13:26 |
| stephan288 | video driver seem to load fine | 13:27 |
| stephan288 | usb is 2.0 | 13:27 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, let me see, in panel its showing showdesktop is missing? then remove that | 13:27 |
| BluesKaj | the plasma 5 is not a complete desktop like unity or gnome, it's a development/experimental upgrade inside KDE which used the plasma desktop within it's structure | 13:27 |
| BluesKaj | someone correct me if I'm wrong | 13:28 |
| koding123 | yep its still under development | 13:28 |
| stephan288 | what happens is that i press caps lock for example and the light takes like 10-15 seconds to respond, as well as mouse movements | 13:28 |
| koding123 | Plasma 4 is more stable | 13:28 |
| BluesKaj | koding123, yes and more flexible, so far | 13:29 |
| TheBigDeal | are trying to convince me to stick with plasma4 :P, NO. | 13:29 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, show us a screenshot of what is the issue | 13:30 |
| BluesKaj | nope, but you have to understand the structure of KDE and plasma, TheBigDeal | 13:30 |
| TheBigDeal | mm | 13:31 |
| stephan288 | my integrated video is nvidia Geforce 6150 LE | 13:31 |
| TheBigDeal | let me do that sudo apt-get install kubuntu-plasma5-desktop for the last time and see | 13:31 |
| * BluesKaj shrugs | 13:31 | |
| TheBigDeal | :D | 13:31 |
| bekks | TheBigDeal: that wont help. | 13:31 |
| TheBigDeal | bekks: Really!, but why? | 13:32 |
| TalesOfWinnetou | TheBigDeal : ppa ?, didn't really matter to him, as he was just a poor boy from | 13:32 |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, what source did you use to install plasma 5? | 13:32 |
| bekks | TheBigDeal: why would repeatedly doing things help? | 13:32 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, according to you, everything is working other than that, "not found" thing is panel, so just remove that panel applet, itll solve everything | 13:32 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: we said earlier Kubuntu next, i saw that in webupd8 | 13:33 |
| TheBigDeal | bekks: No, it's only the second and last time | 13:33 |
| koding123 | BluesKaj, well according to him he used ppa:kubuntu-ppa/next | 13:33 |
| TheBigDeal | bekks: I didn't do dist-upgrade before | 13:33 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, what is the issue now? | 13:33 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: the issue, am i able to login to plasma5 after i install it? | 13:34 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, how can I tell that? its your desktop check if its Plasma 4 or 5 | 13:35 |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, you should be able to, and it'll be your default desktop | 13:35 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: Let's see then | 13:35 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: installing kubuntu-plasma5-desktop cleanly .... | 13:36 |
| TheBigDeal | removing : kubuntu-desktop kde-workspace kde-workspace-data and bin, too sad | 13:37 |
| TheBigDeal | :( | 13:37 |
| TheBigDeal | Hopefully it'll work, because i don't want to install these things again :( | 13:38 |
| bekks | Why not? | 13:38 |
| TheBigDeal | bekks: Lazy. | 13:38 |
| bekks | It is one command - and if they are colliding, you cant have them installed in parallel. | 13:38 |
| TheBigDeal | bekks: You need to remove the plasma5 first | 13:38 |
| TheBigDeal | bekks: They can't be together | 13:39 |
| TalesOfWinnetou | reboot they seem to stutter | 13:39 |
| TheBigDeal | that's what i can see so far | 13:39 |
| BluesKaj | installing plasma 5 with ppa is basically just upgrading plasma4 to plsama5 | 13:39 |
| bekks | TheBigDeal: Yeah, so you either use Plasma 5 or Plasma 4. | 13:39 |
| TheBigDeal | Ok | 13:39 |
| TalesOfWinnetou | wait, how do most people today come to use ubuntu ? | 13:39 |
| ObrienDave | kubuntu-desktop is a meta package, removing should not uninstall the actual desktop | 13:39 |
| TheBigDeal | going to reboot ..... everything is ready :P | 13:39 |
| TheBigDeal | ObrienDave: kde-workspace is required | 13:40 |
| ObrienDave | ahh, k | 13:40 |
| TheBigDeal | to see some colors | 13:40 |
| TheBigDeal | be right back! | 13:40 |
| * ObrienDave holds breath | 13:40 | |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, there shoulkd be no need to install kde-worspace separately, it should be re-installed by default | 13:41 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: when removing plasma5? | 13:42 |
| BluesKaj | nop | 13:42 |
| TheBigDeal | or installing kubuntu-desktop? | 13:42 |
| TheBigDeal | going to sudo reboot :P .... | 13:42 |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, to instal plasma 5 from the ppa you just need to update/upgrade and dist-upgrade, that's all | 13:43 |
| BluesKaj | he doesn't get ti | 13:43 |
| BluesKaj | it | 13:43 |
| koding123 | well I used that same method (Plasma Next PPA) in 14.10 worked fine for me... | 13:44 |
| BluesKaj | koding123, well let's hope it works for him | 13:44 |
| koding123 | yep | 13:44 |
| TheHackOps | Quick question, Just downloaded qts online installer its a .run file. I have done chmod +x on the file but i still cant run it, It asks me to install an application to deal with executable files | 13:45 |
| TheHackOps | Im on 14.04 | 13:45 |
| OerHeks | TheHackOps, then install that application | 13:46 |
| TheHackOps | I did | 13:46 |
| TheHackOps | It installs some python runner | 13:46 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, just run for terminal ./filename.run | 13:46 |
| BluesKaj | or sudo ./filename.run | 13:48 |
| TalesOfWinnetou | it's run out, time's make this a great one | 13:48 |
| MonkeyDust | TalesOfWinnetou are you a text generating bot? | 13:49 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, Yeh tried that | 13:49 |
| TheHackOps | just does not want to run | 13:49 |
| TheHackOps | its weird | 13:49 |
| TheHackOps | I get command not found | 13:50 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, what application is it telling you to install... | 13:50 |
| TheHackOps | There are no spaces in the file | 13:50 |
| TalesOfWinnetou | install kde software on windows | 13:50 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, when you get "command not found" ? | 13:51 |
| MonkeyDust | TalesOfWinnetou who is the president of the USA? | 13:51 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, Nah when i run it from naut i get install pypar2 | 13:51 |
| TheHackOps | From terminal just wont find it | 13:51 |
| TheHackOps | so to speak | 13:51 |
| TalesOfWinnetou | its a poor boy from a poor family | 13:51 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, then find that package in synaptic | 13:51 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, I already installed it | 13:51 |
| TheHackOps | Never had to install it before | 13:51 |
| BluesKaj | TheHackOps, you have to cd to the dir where the run file is located | 13:52 |
| TheHackOps | BluesKaj, Yea i know | 13:52 |
| TheHackOps | Sorry | 13:52 |
| TheHackOps | That was rude | 13:52 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, show us a screenshot | 13:52 |
| TheHackOps | I been using Qt and their installers on ubuntu since like Release 10 of ubuntu | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | TalesOfWinnetou, you need to install kde for windows...let'see what the response is | 13:53 |
| TheHackOps | probably before that | 13:53 |
| TheHackOps | worked fine | 13:53 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, Sure | 13:53 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, The weird thing is in terminal tab auto complete doesnt work for this file | 13:54 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, BTW qt is in the Ubuntu repos | 13:55 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, so if you need that get it from there | 13:55 |
| TheBigDeal | Hello | 13:55 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, Thats fine i could just use aptitude but | 13:56 |
| TheBigDeal | the same issue :( | 13:56 |
| TheHackOps | I like to fix a problem not hack it | 13:56 |
| TheHackOps | Unless i have to hack it | 13:56 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, what is the ISSUE? | 13:56 |
| TheBigDeal | after i log in, i can't see anything except the background and mouse :( | 13:56 |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, to install plasma 5 from the ppa you just need to update/upgrade and dist-upgrade, that's all | 13:56 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, well getting QT from the official repos is more straightforward method compared to what you are trying to do | 13:57 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, well getting QT from the official repos is more straightforward method compared to what you are trying to do | 13:57 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, not you sorry | 13:57 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, I doubt this is a qt installer issue | 13:57 |
| TheBigDeal | :D | 13:57 |
| TheHackOps | I could be wrong | 13:57 |
| TheHackOps | Seems like im doing something wrong o/s level | 13:57 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, I think it is | 13:58 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: so what's for me :( ? | 13:58 |
| TheHackOps | http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/ | 13:58 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: any idea about this issue? | 13:58 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, If you download their online installer are you able to get it to work | 13:58 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, http://i.imgur.com/0IcQp6h.jpg | 13:58 |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, read my post above | 13:58 |
| TheHackOps | that screenshot you wanted (i use 2 monitors sorry | 13:58 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, I asked you a question, havn;t got answer, what is your issue? is Plasma 5 showing up or Plasma 4? | 13:58 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: I'm in the tty :( | 13:59 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: Nothing is showing up, and old background with a mouse cursour :( | 13:59 |
| TheBigDeal | only | 13:59 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, so what you are trying to say is you have problems with .run files? have you tried any other .run file | 14:00 |
| BluesKaj | TheBigDeal, run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 14:00 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, The other weird thing i noticed its that if i right click on the file and try to select Allow executing file as program | 14:00 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, and when you right click? | 14:00 |
| TheHackOps | it unchecks automatically | 14:00 |
| TheHackOps | So to speak | 14:00 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: ? | 14:00 |
| TheBigDeal | BluesKaj: What should that do? | 14:00 |
| TheHackOps | I googled around and found the same thing with a few others | 14:00 |
| TheHackOps | This is a brand fresh new install of 14.04 lts | 14:01 |
| TheHackOps | AMD 64 | 14:01 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, ah so what happens when you click on "Install"? | 14:01 |
| TheHackOps | It installs PyPar2 | 14:01 |
| BluesKaj | TheHackOps, it will install the proper associated packages and dependencies needed to run plasma 5 | 14:02 |
| TheHackOps | ?? | 14:02 |
| TheHackOps | I assume thats not for me | 14:03 |
| koding123 | theyep | 14:03 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, So any ideas? | 14:04 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, install qtcreator from synaptic | 14:04 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, Not a great solution | 14:04 |
| BluesKaj | TheHackOps, no , it's mean't thebif=gdeal...too many nicks with "the" in them in here | 14:04 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, have you tried any other .run files of other apps? do they work or not? | 14:04 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, I guess for now i can | 14:04 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, No i have not | 14:05 |
| TheHackOps | Do you know of any | 14:05 |
| koding123 | TheHackOps, AFAIK XAMPP and VMware Player have those as well | 14:05 |
| TheHackOps | koding123, hmm | 14:06 |
| TheHackOps | Meh ill just install from repo | 14:06 |
| TheHackOps | dammit | 14:06 |
| TheHackOps | Ill have to add their repo for 5.4 | 14:07 |
| TheHackOps | Hmm | 14:07 |

| TheHackOps | OerHeks, Downloading now thanks for your time ill let you know | 14:13 |
| koding123 | TheBigDeal, have you installed this package as well? plasma-workspace-wallpapers | 14:13 |
| TheHackOps | and everyone else | 14:13 |
| TheBigDeal | Thanks everyone, bekks koding123 BluesKaj :) | 14:13 |
| MonkeyDust | micadeyeye then why did you come to this channel? | 14:13 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: Nope, I'll try | 14:13 |
| bekks | micadeyeye: So ask the Fedora support. | 14:13 |
| micadeyeye | I thought it was a Fedora specific problem... | 14:13 |
| TheHackOps | OerHeks, Does not let me check it for execution | 14:13 |
| TheHackOps | Auto unchecks | 14:13 |
| bekks | micadeyeye: This isnt a fedora channel. | 14:13 |
| MonkeyDust | micadeyeye you're in the wrong channel | 14:14 |
| TheHackOps | bekks, I wear a fedora does that count? | 14:14 |
| bekks | TheHackOps: ASk the fedora support too. | 14:14 |
| TheHackOps | Ok but what if I wear an Ubuntu shirt on my first date | 14:14 |
| micadeyeye | Thanks folks. | 14:14 |
| koding123_ | micadeyeye, then ask in #fedora | 14:15 |
| TheHackOps | The new ubuntu on my SSD is so dam fast | 14:15 |
| TheHackOps | its amazing | 14:15 |
| TheHackOps | Very excited to get set up again on Linux | 14:15 |
| TheHackOps | :) | 14:15 |
| koding123_ | TheHackOps, I see you are not using Unity | 14:16 |
| TheHackOps | koding123_, no comment... | 14:16 |
| lnoskhen | Hello. Does Wine uses the same MAC address? | 14:16 |
| Vooloo | I can't bind alt+tab to shift switcher in compiz ccsm in ubuntu 14.04 ... nothing happens | 14:17 |
| Prezident | Compiz is pretty dead | 14:17 |
| teward | lnoskhen: in what context are you asking? | 14:17 |
| Prezident | Havent been developed for years | 14:17 |
| Vooloo | alt+tab is broken completely | 14:17 |
| TheHackOps | koding123_, I use linux dists coz freedom to chose how i want my O/S, personally i dont like unity at all | 14:17 |
| TheHackOps | Or the search thing | 14:17 |
| koding123_ | compiz works fine for me | 14:17 |
| teward | lnoskhen: AFAIK the MAC address for your computer's NIC is used, as Wine sends internet data out through your network card like any other application/system/server | 14:17 |
| TheHackOps | So i just remove it and go back to the good old days | 14:17 |
| TheHackOps | Very happy using ubuntu like i always have | 14:18 |
| Vooloo | I can bind super+tab but not alt+tab... I have gnome-flashback-session | 14:18 |
| koding123_ | well the best thing about Unity is the Global Menu and the HUD features :) | 14:18 |
| TheBigDeal | koding123: The design is bit ugly sometimes, But since it is in a development state they'll fix that :) | 14:18 |
| TheHackOps | koding123_, Thats your opinion which i respect but | 14:18 |
| TheHackOps | I like my application bar | 14:18 |
| TheHackOps | and menu system | 14:19 |
| * TheHackOps Also is paranoid about the search sending info back to amazon even if its via proxy | 14:19 | |
| koding123_ | TheBigDeal, yep AFAIK Kubuntu 15.04 will ship with Plasma 5, so lets see | 14:19 |
| Vooloo | the unity sidebar thing is horrible | 14:20 |
| TheHackOps | That borderline turned me away from ubuntu for a long ass time | 14:20 |
| koding123_ | TheHackOps, then just remove that lens | 14:20 |
| koding123_ | the Unity Launcher is awesome :) | 14:20 |
| compdoc | lets all be afraid of our OSes | 14:20 |
| Dan9550 | hey, has anyone here got LACP working in ubuntu? | 14:21 |
| BluesKaj | koding123_, yes 15.04 already using plasma 5 , got it on the laptop ...not crazy about it though , still very "unfinished" | 14:21 |
| TheHackOps | koding123_, Meh i think ill just enjoy my freedom of being able to remove it and have my desktop how i want | 14:21 |
| TheHackOps | Thats why we all use linux right? | 14:21 |
| TheHackOps | Freedom to chose and change | 14:21 |
| TheHackOps | Also its so dam fast | 14:22 |
| koding123_ | BluesKaj, yep, I think Ill take till Kubuntu 16.04 LTS :) | 14:22 |
| lnoskhen | teward: Ooh.. Thank you. I got banned from online games and game support says that I'm using an invalid mac address. Btw, thank you :) | 14:22 |
| koding123_ | BluesKaj, *it'll | 14:23 |
| koding123_ | BluesKaj, also the new Icon theme is kinda unfinised compared to Oxygen | 14:23 |
| TheHackOps | koding123_, When was the last time you heard Micro$$ say we made the window manager like this but if you want you can remove it easy and use another one | 14:23 |
| TheHackOps | Or Apple | 14:24 |
| teward | lnoskhen: well, that could be a different issue | 14:24 |
| === koding123_ is now known as koding123 | ||
| teward | lnoskhen: not all functions that games want/need work in Wine | 14:24 |
| teward | lnoskhen: MAC verification may be one of them, I haven't checked if Wine can show the MAC address to the stuff running inside it | 14:25 |
| BluesKaj | koding123_, very few desktop theme and colour choices, plus it still suffers fro some very annoying bugs like copy and paste not working unless the source and target files remain open simultaneously and there's no dropdown fro previous entries in the run command/krunner etc | 14:25 |

| ubottu | TheHackOps: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 14:25 |
| TheHackOps | kil, Yeah i was about to say im very off topic | 14:26 |
| koding123 | BluesKaj, yep its got a lot of bug to fix | 14:26 |
| lnoskhen | teward: Yeah :D I'm currently looking for that just to double check. Thank you. | 14:26 |

| MonkeyDust | Voltasalt and what exact command are you using | 14:37 |
| Voltasalt | the bootup script | 14:37 |

| Voltasalt | MonkeyDust, is it relevant? the error happens no matter what apt command/package I install | 14:41 |
| MonkeyDust | Voltasalt what happesn when you apt-get update? | 14:42 |
| Voltasalt | MonkeyDust, okay, every apt command except update | 14:43 |
| Voltasalt | it doens't error | 14:43 |

| Voltasalt | MonkeyDust, apt-get upgrade gives the same error | 14:46 |
| MonkeyDust | Voltasalt try changeing the mirror, in system setings > software & updates > download from.... if that fails, you should wait for someone else to reply | 14:48 |
| Voltasalt | MonkeyDust, this is on ubuntu server | 14:48 |
| MonkeyDust | Voltasalt i missed that part in your question, in fact, i missed a lot of parts in your question... i'm sure someone else is willing to help you | 14:49 |
| BluesKaj | Voltasalt, why not just run a user and usae sudo instead of being root ? | 14:50 |
| BluesKaj | Voltasalt, as a user and use sudo, that is. | 14:53 |
| Voltasalt | BluesKaj, i was too lazy when I set the server up | 14:53 |

| artisanIndia | is there any command to find failover IPs of my server ? | 14:54 |
| artisanIndia | is there any command to find failover IPs of my ubuntu server ? | 14:56 |
| === Guest49582 is now known as Whew32 | ||
| teward | artisanIndia: by default there would be no failover IPs - your question is ambiguous, maybe you want to be more specific? | 14:58 |
| artisanIndia | my clients dedi has 16 IPs on the server they are not assigned yet and I have to assign them but the client is offline | 14:58 |
| artisanIndia | teward ^^ | 14:59 |
| teward | artisanIndia: that's still ambiguous - if they aren't assigned then there is no failover | 14:59 |
| artisanIndia | my client bought a server and order 15 extra IPs on the panel he can see them | 15:00 |
| teward | artisanIndia: ideally you can find the alternate IPs assigned to the machine via `ifconfig -a` or `ip addr show` and then reading through the output | 15:00 |
| artisanIndia | is there anyway I can see them on ssh | 15:00 |
| bekks | Voltasalt: Did you check what that fixrtc hooks does, and why it is failing? | 15:00 |
| teward | artisanIndia: only if they're assigned and properly configured on the system - i just gave you two commands to see that, HOWEVER, if the panel has them unassigned / unconfigured I bet the dedi is unconfigured as well | 15:00 |
| Voltasalt | bekks, I have no idea what that is | 15:00 |
| bekks | Voltasalt: So take a look at it :) | 15:01 |
| artisanIndia | ifconfig -a shows only one ip on eth0 | 15:01 |
| artisanIndia | teward and I know that particular ip I dont know others | 15:02 |
| kev999 | hi | 15:11 |
| kev999 | I want to run a shell script, symbollically linked in my logged in terminal | 15:12 |
| kev999 | I'm trying ln -s 'source /path/to/script' shortname | 15:12 |
| crypto_ | you mean an alias? | 15:13 |
| kev999 | which obviously doesn't work - but that what I'm wanting to achieve - any boffins have the answer? | 15:13 |
| kev999 | sort of, but I want to add parameters to it | 15:13 |
| crypto_ | alias shortname='source /path/to/script' | 15:13 |
| crypto_ | it can take parameters | 15:14 |
| divBy0 | hey, how do you make deja dup do differential backups instead of incremental? | 15:14 |
| kev999 | thanks crypto - not sure where to place the alias so that it's always there at startup ubuntu 14.01lts - can you advise? | 15:15 |
| kev999 | I know it's a lazy question - just know you'll have the answer - not something I've done before ^^^ | 15:18 |
| MonkeyDust | divBy0 i guess deja dup isnt complicated enough for that, maybe try luckybackup (uses rsync) | 15:18 |
| crypto_ | kev999, in ~/.bashrc | 15:19 |

| amancer1 | Hey Guys | 15:24 |
| crypto_ | mayaa, can you boot a live usb? | 15:24 |
| mayaa | crypto_, yes, I already tryed some tuto to repair grub from my live usb | 15:25 |
| impromptu | Can we extend the size of an encrypted ~ ? | 15:25 |
| crypto_ | ok, did you successfully chroot and whatnot? | 15:25 |
| amancer1 | My shortcuts (SUPER to open launcer for example) are not working on the desktop. They only work if a window is open. Does anyone have a solution to this? | 15:25 |
| MonkeyDust | divBy0 it means: to give a long sequence of commands its own custom command name, like alias bu='rsync from blah to blah' | 15:26 |
| mayaa | crypto_, I used chroot to update grub yes, | 15:26 |
| MonkeyDust | divBy0 add it to .bashrc and then you simply have to enter bu to start the command sequence | 15:26 |
| crypto_ | mayaa, ok type sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo parted -l | pastebinit | 15:27 |
| KingOfOOP | Hey | 15:27 |

| mayaa | crypto_, ok give me 2min, I'm not actualy on my live usb | 15:28 |
| mayaa | kev999, 14.10 | 15:28 |
| crypto_ | mayaa, ok | 15:28 |
| MonkeyDust | divBy0 because it's faster and easier than a gui | 15:28 |

| argoneus | how do you guys open a text editor from the command line? | 16:14 |
| mayaa | EriC`, hum holding shift doesn't seem to work | 16:14 |
| EriC` | argoneus, which text editor? | 16:14 |
| ioria | argoneus, gedit & | 16:15 |
| argoneus | if I write like gvim x or kate x or whatever it makes my current shell useless | 16:15 |
| MonkeyDust | argoneus gedit& | 16:15 |
| Rory | argoneus: do you mean a text editor that can be used within the terminal window? Look at nano or vim | 16:15 |
| argoneus | so I should use &? | 16:15 |
| DJones | argoneus: I use "nano filename", but depends which text editor you want to use | 16:15 |
| argoneus | is there a way to run it independently on the shell is what I mean | 16:15 |
| Rory | argoneus: gedit /path/to/filename.txt & | 16:15 |
| argoneus | so I spawn it but it won't run as a subprocess of the current shell | 16:15 |
| Rory | argoneus: the trailing & is what you've been missing | 16:15 |
| argoneus | so if I close my terminal it won't die | 16:15 |
| ioria | argoneus, if you want to free the bash | 16:15 |
| EriC` | argoneus, as MonkeyDust said, but when you exit the terminal dont use the close button, type exit | 16:15 |

| fuzzybear3965 | This is not an Ubuntu-specific question, but this is a good place to ask, I think. | 16:57 |
| fuzzybear3965 | Does anyone here use crypto.cat? | 16:57 |
| IdleOne | No it isn't | 16:57 |
| IdleOne | This is an Ubuntu support channel | 16:58 |

| fuzzybear3965 | I feel you.. I do.. | 16:58 |
| fuzzybear3965 | It's just.... I really want to figure this ish out. | 16:59 |

| pipl | haunt_house: are you sure the folder you are searching contains wav files ? | 18:14 |
| haunt_house | sorry, foreigenr here: what i meant was the problem with me using the nautilus search is that the search syntax differs from windows explorer | 18:15 |

| bekks | Siente: So take a look at your .bash_history in your home directory. | 18:38 |
| ioria | Siente you can scroll by the terminal using arrows keys | 18:38 |
| Siente | ioria, but I have rebooted my pc | 18:38 |
| ioria | Siente it'snot a problem | 18:39 |
| Siente | that's what I need the .bash_history | 18:39 |
| Siente | but how to make a backup of it? | 18:39 |
| Siente | that file is hidden | 18:39 |
| bekks | Siente: By using cp. | 18:39 |
| Siente | how to make the file visible? | 18:39 |
| bekks | "Hidden" means "it has a dot as first character". | 18:40 |
| bekks | Siente: You dont need to make it visible. | 18:40 |
| OerHeks | cp ~/.bash_history ~/Documents/new.txt | 18:40 |
| bekks | cp .bash_history backup_of_my_history.text | 18:40 |
| Siente | bekks, okay and is there a .bash_history in /home/root ? | 18:40 |
| ioria | Siente select hidden files in filemanager or ctrl-h | 18:40 |
| Siente | aa there's no such a dir | 18:40 |
| bekks | Siente: /home/root is not the home directory of the root user, /root is. | 18:41 |
| ioria | Siente it's not a dir it's a file | 18:41 |
| Siente | yes I know but is there only 1 .bash_history file | 18:41 |
| bekks | ioria: /home/root is not the home of the root user, but /root is | 18:41 |
| Siente | or there's another root .bash_history? | 18:41 |
| bekks | Siente: No, there is only one .bash_history per user. | 18:41 |
| Siente | all the su commands are shown there too? | 18:41 |
| pipl | haunt_house: it seems that '.wav' instead of '*.wav' would probably work. | 18:42 |
| bekks | Siente: Just look into that file. | 18:42 |
| OerHeks | Siente no | 18:42 |
| Siente | bekks, /root/.bash_history is different from /home/siente/.bash_history so I need to make a backup of both files | 18:42 |
| haunt_house | yes, thank you. not waterproof, but good enough for this search | 18:42 |
| bekks | Siente: Yes. BEcause those are two different history files. | 18:43 |
| bekks | Siente: Of course they do differ. | 18:43 |
| Siente | yes thank you very much guys you're awesome! | 18:43 |
| Siente | I really appreciate your hlep | 18:43 |
| Siente | help | 18:43 |
| Siente | bekks, and .bash_history contains the history since when? | 18:44 |
| bekks | Siente: Look into that file. | 18:45 |

| SCHAAP137 | hi, i have a dual monitor setup, my laptop screen on the left, and my main screen on HDMI to the right | 19:13 |

| SCHAAP137 | Ubuntu seems to forget what the correct placement is | 19:13 |
| maimster | arch_bcn: Have you tried removing the applet, and readding it? | 19:14 |
| SCHAAP137 | how can i save the screen placement? | 19:14 |
| SCHAAP137 | after a reboot, HDMI is virtually left of the LVDS laptop screen, but in reality it's on the right | 19:14 |

| arch_bcn | also if I lock the session I can shutdown using the button in the lock screen. I also noticed that when I boot the pc if there are not any running apps the shutdown works fine, but if I open a single app it doesn't work, is quite annoying | 19:17 |

| shreee | SCHAAP137, then put it in the script and find a place to hang it (would be startx elswhere) | 19:18 |
| shreee | SCHAAP137, but that's a hacky way to do it I guess | 19:19 |

| codygman | Ubuntu is trying to resume from a partition that I deleted, how can I fix this? | 19:20 |

| teward | mircx1: what do you mean by 'install email'? | 19:25 |

| mattviator | how do i tell it to run a command from that location in the exec= | 19:32 |
| bekks | mattviator: ? | 19:32 |
| bekks | mattviator: Can you elaborate a bit further please? | 19:33 |
| ioria | mattviator, bekks: in a .desktop file he means | 19:33 |
| ObrienDave | channel issue? | 19:33 |
| ObrienDave | !pingme | 19:34 |
| SCHAAP137 | fixed it shreee | 19:34 |
| shreee | what was the solution? | 19:34 |
| SCHAAP137 | made a script that loads ~/.config/monitors.xml during login | 19:34 |
| SCHAAP137 | with a 5 sec delay | 19:34 |
| shreee | I'm pretty new to ubuntu so, it'd be interesting to see the right way | 19:34 |
| shreee | ahh | 19:34 |
| shreee | why wasn't it loading it already? | 19:34 |
| shreee | maybe you should push that back to the project? | 19:35 |
| SCHAAP137 | i followed this: http://bernaerts.dyndns.org/linux/74-ubuntu/309-ubuntu-dual-display-monitor-position-lost | 19:35 |
| SCHAAP137 | it seems to be a common thing, monitors losing position @ ubuntu | 19:35 |
| SCHAAP137 | i assume devs are aware of it | 19:35 |
| bekks | SCHAAP137: It isnt common ;) | 19:35 |
| SCHAAP137 | it seems to default to putting the Primary screen on the left, in my case | 19:36 |
| SCHAAP137 | while i need my primary screen on the right | 19:36 |
| bekks | SCHAAP137: Which is configurable (at least when using nvidia - I never used something else), and I never head problems with that in the past decade. | 19:37 |
| SCHAAP137 | got intel here | 19:37 |
| mattviator | maybe because im makeing the file as elevated usere and running it as regular? | 19:37 |
| MonkeyDust | SCHAAP137 i have two screens too, because the laptop's screen is black... the external is the primary, now, no problem | 19:38 |
| bekks | mattviator: That wont affect anything. | 19:38 |
| SCHAAP137 | my issue was the following: | 19:38 |
| crank__ | mircx1, try to click on it | 19:38 |
| SCHAAP137 | i need HDMI primary to the right, and LVDS (laptop) secondary to the left | 19:38 |
| SCHAAP137 | but the virtual position gets reset after each boot | 19:38 |
| SCHAAP137 | making the HDMI virtually to the left of LVDS | 19:38 |
| SCHAAP137 | hence i used the solution from that link | 19:39 |
| MonkeyDust | SCHAAP137 systems settings > displays fixes that for me | 19:39 |
| SCHAAP137 | yeah here too, but it doesn't get saved over reboots MonkeyDust | 19:39 |
| MonkeyDust | SCHAAP137 you can move the displays, using the mouse | 19:39 |
| SCHAAP137 | i am aware of that MonkeyDust, i'm describing a bug | 19:39 |
| teward | SCHAAP137: i assume there's a bug filed on this? | 19:40 |
| SCHAAP137 | changing position works, applying the changed position works, but after a reboot, primary screen is positioned left of the secondary again | 19:40 |
| mattviator | bekks, then what could be going on http://pastebin.com/ttabvYSd | 19:40 |
| SCHAAP137 | i hope so teward, did not check yet | 19:40 |
| teward | SCHAAP137: that's your next step - if it truly is a bug you should file one, unless a bug on it already exists | 19:40 |
| bekks | mattviator: So whats happening when you doubleclick on that file? | 19:40 |
| mattviator | nothing | 19:41 |
| mattviator | but if i goto executable in the filesystem and click it it runs | 19:41 |
| mattviator | if i goto the file in the cli and do ./ it launches fine | 19:41 |
| bekks | mattviator: Did you try opening a terminal and run that command with its full path (/home/kids/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Starbound/linux64/starbound) when NOT being in /home/kids/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Starbound/linux64/ ? | 19:41 |
| SCHAAP137 | glad to be back in an OS again on which i can do some more sound related things | 19:42 |
| SCHAAP137 | OpenBSD was a bit limited in that sense | 19:42 |
| mattviator | ill try it not in path | 19:42 |
| rymate1234 | anyone know how the patched nautilus in Ubuntu uses a Gtk HeaderBar on gnome 3 but a standard toolbar on unity? | 19:43 |
| MonkeyDust | rymate1234 please rephrase, that's hard to read | 19:44 |
| mattviator | bekks, i tried your suggestion got this http://pastebin.com/yMZsTgmk | 19:45 |
| rymate1234 | MonkeyDust, it looks like http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WKqYCWPFuPs/UuaK7yng58I/AAAAAAAARNw/m8FPmJxv760/s1600/ubuntu-trusty-nautilus-gs.png in gnome shell | 19:45 |
| rymate1234 | but whilst under unity it's http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3d5z948mqFA/UuaKmGhJAOI/AAAAAAAARNo/tS-u4vAAOuk/s1600/ubuntu-trusty-nautilus-unity.png | 19:46 |
| bekks | mattviator: Then you hacve to write small script which changes path to where "starbound" resides and then executes it. And you have to use that script in the Exec= statement in your launcher file. | 19:46 |
| rymate1234 | I was wondering how they did this | 19:46 |
| mattviator | nothings simple :/ | 19:46 |
| bekks | mattviator: Totally simple. :) | 19:46 |
| MonkeyDust | rymate1234 that would be for #ubuntu-offtopic, i guess... | 19:47 |
| rymate1234 | why is it offtopic? | 19:47 |
| MonkeyDust | rymate1234 because it's not really a support question | 19:48 |

| bynarie | trism, ok.. have u ever heard of this happening? | 20:10 |
| bekks | mattviator: So what does /home/kids/starbounds.sh contain now? | 20:11 |

| bekks | mattviator: So what does /home/kids/starbounds.sh contain now? | 20:11 |
| fengshaun | nevermind, it's downloading from edgers's ppa, I guess he renamed the packages | 20:11 |
| trism | bynarie: I have but I don't have any bug numbers off the top of my head, you would have to look around and maybe submit one yourself | 20:11 |

| bekks | mattviator: So you did not run the commands I told you. | 20:12 |
| bynarie | trism, ok thanks for your help. | 20:13 |
| mattviator | are they to be run seperately | 20:13 |
| mattviator | or as one command | 20:13 |
| mattviator | i pastebinned the output of what happened whn i tried to run them as one command | 20:13 |
| bekks | mattviator: They are separated by ; so they are multiple commands which can be run one after another. | 20:14 |
| bekks | mattviator: They have no output. | 20:14 |
| bekks | mattviator: So run the commands, since they create /home/kids/starbounds.sh, put some lines into it, and set the appropriate permissions on that file. | 20:14 |

| mattviator | bekks, i manually put that content into the .sh file saved it changed the permissions to be executable via the cli and it works now | 20:29 |
| AndreWalia6 | I'm a LUA developer and I was wondering if there is an API for posting content to paste.ubuntu.com | 20:29 |
| Guest66425 | bynarie, thanks I will use that as a permanent solution | 20:29 |
| AndreWalia6 | Is there such a thing? | 20:29 |
| Guest66425 | bynarie, changing the boot order got windows running | 20:29 |
| bekks | mattviator: good :) | 20:30 |
| bynarie | Guest66425, that boot repair disk is basically a live ubuntu iso u can put on flash drive/cd | 20:30 |
| bynarie | good luck | 20:30 |
| mattviator | dragged the .desktop onto the dock | 20:30 |
| mattviator | and it works | 20:30 |
| bynarie | it does work tho because i have had to use it before Guest66425 | 20:30 |
| owen1 | carbonx x1 2nd gen. headphone jack not working. is this my solution? http://askubuntu.com/a/237710 | 20:31 |
| mattviator | any idea why it still wants to show a question mark icon | 20:31 |
| AndreWalia6 | If this is not the correct place to ask questions about paste.ubuntu.com then where is? | 20:31 |
| DJones | AndreWalia6: There is pastebinit not sure how it works, but maybe something to look at | 20:31 |
| DJones | !pastebinit | 20:31 |
| ubottu | pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 20:31 |
| mattviator | it still shows my lancher icon but the app itself has question mark icon when it launches | 20:31 |
| Guest66425 | bynarie, thanks I'll check it out, would be easier to just chose the os from the grub menu vs having to change the boot order | 20:31 |
| bekks | mattviator: because you did not define an icon to be used. | 20:31 |
| AndreWalia6 | Aha | 20:31 |
| AndreWalia6 | Where can i get sourcecode for !pastebinit? | 20:32 |
| YokoBR_ | guys, how can i configure xorg.conf? | 20:32 |
| YokoBR_ | http://pastebin.com/6YMyQEME my devices are missing | 20:32 |
| mattviator | con=/usr/share/icons/starbound.png is in .desktop and that works | 20:32 |
| bekks | mattviator: And where is the question mark? | 20:32 |
| mattviator | but the app itself how do i find where to change that? | 20:32 |
| AndreWalia6 | !pastebinit | 20:33 |
| ubottu | pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 20:33 |
| mattviator | when i launch it by click the app runs and it has its own icon | 20:33 |
| bekks | mattviator: thats because the author of that file didnt define another icon. | 20:33 |
| mattviator | maybe a config somewhere in the linux64 folder or something | 20:34 |
| AndreWalia6 | !help | 20:35 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 20:35 |

| zer0_ii | bekks: I'm not talking about the largest one. I'm talking about the most active. I'm new to Linux and basically just wanted to find a channel where I could just read and learn | 21:16 |

| Loshki | cetex: and how exactly do you boot this beast? | 22:36 |
| cetex | bios -> pxe boot -> loads ipxe -> downloads kernel + initramfs over http, runs it. | 22:37 |
| cetex | the initramfs has a custom init-script to setup some stuff we need, i'm not touching the hosts file there. then i give upstart control and a few seconds later i have a hosts-file when i login.. | 22:38 |
| TalesOfWinnetou | hocetex | 22:38 |
| Loshki | cetex: so is there any data local to the client at all? Where are / and /usr mounted from? | 22:38 |
| cetex | no. nothing local at all | 22:38 |
| cetex | well, we have harddrives for hdfs, but nothing is loaded from them. | 22:39 |

| xpe | Hi everyone! I recieve a "gzip: stdout: No space left on device" error while running apt-get when it performs "Processing triggers for initramfs-tools"->"update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.2.62"->"grep: /boot/config-3.2.62: No such file or directory". Now, the problem is that the /boot partition is relatively small and runs out of space. I have already removed older kernel images. It seems like /boot/initrd.img-3.2.62 itself takes most of the | 22:51 |
| xpe | space on the partition. I'm not entirely sure what is happening here and if I acutally need /boot/initrd.img-3.2.62 ... Can I just get rid of it somehow? | 22:51 |
| lauren | holy crapola i fucking did it | 22:52 |
| aaas | xpe can you use apt-get to remove old kernels? | 22:52 |
| aaas | in particular that one | 22:52 |
| Bashing-om | xpe: How did you " already removed older kernel images " ? | 22:52 |
| lauren | :happy dance: | 22:52 |
| aaas | anyone know how to remove console-kit-daemon while keeping remote x logins? | 22:53 |
| lauren | Noooooo | 22:53 |
| Loshki | cetex: maybe I can save you the trouble. Does it list all the upstart 'jobs' in the order they were run when you invoke it. | 22:54 |
| xpe | Well... I actually removed most of them by mistake... I ran sth. like "apt-get remove linux-image-3.4*" and thought it would only match the ones with 3.4 in its name, but it somehow matched all of them. I reinstalled the two latest ones now. All others are marked as "rc" when I run dpkg --list and when I do an apt-get purge, it says 0 bytes will be freed. | 22:54 |
| cetex | Loshki: yeah. it should list them. i've done it a few times before. | 22:54 |
| Rafferty | Hey all. So I reinstalled 14.04 and now it won't recognize my laptops network card. It had no problem doing so before the reinstall | 22:54 |
| xpe | The 3.2.62 one is not in the dkpg list | 22:55 |
| xpe | dpkg... | 22:55 |
| cetex | it seems i have introduced a bug in my init script lately, --verbose kills it :> | 22:55 |
| aaas | xpe have you tried reinstalling it and then remove/purging it? | 22:55 |
| aaas | did you install any manually? | 22:55 |
| Bashing-om | xpe: Glad ya stayed with the package manager to remove those kernels ! .. can you install ? -> sudo apt-get install pastebinit <- . So you can show us what there is to work with . | 22:57 |
| xpe | I did run "apt-get install --reinstall linux-image" after I started panicking a bit when I noticed that I ran apt-get remove on all existing ones :) | 22:57 |
| aaas | xpe ok but im assuming you're running a newer one than 3.2... have you tried reinstalling and removeing 3.2? | 22:58 |
| aaas | 3.2.62 | 22:58 |
| xpe | No, I havent yet. I can try that. If that doesn't work, I'll install pastebinit. Thanks for your help, aaas and Bashing-on | 22:59 |

| bmfmancinilool | hey all I have a question in regards to UFW | 23:02 |
| xpe | aaas: I can't reinstall 3.2.0-62 as there doesn't seem to be one in the package repositories.Thee is 60, 61, 63, 64, ... | 23:03 |
| aaas | xpe you said dpkg -l lists it as rc? | 23:04 |
| xpe | aaas: Sorry, a few other ones, but not 62. | 23:04 |
| aaas | xpe and you didn't install anything manually...you've only used apt-get? | 23:04 |
| xpe | aaas: I guess I should have mentioned that this is a computer that is not only used by me. I'm not entirely sure if I caused the issue or if it was already there :) I just needed to install another package and ran into that error. | 23:05 |
| bmfmancinilool | I am trying to redirect UFW logs from syslog to its own logfile but I stuck the log file gets created and wrote too but when i run dmesg i still see all the output from ufw | 23:06 |
| Loshki | cetex: I'm thinking instead of running upstart, you can run each script individually, and narrow down which one creates /etc/host. If you're sure of the order, you could maybe even do binary chop. | 23:06 |
| aaas | xpe well if someone installed this by trying to compile a kernel then that might tell you why the size is too big and it's not in dpkg.... you can look around for the source and if you find it you can uninstall it from there using the uninstall procedures for kernel sources | 23:06 |
| === Sergio965_ is now known as Sergio965 | ||
| cetex | Loshki: hm. how would i run them manually without upstart? :) | 23:07 |
| cetex | Loshki: the /etc/init.d/* ones i understand, but the /etc/init/* needs upstart as far as i know. :) | 23:07 |
| xpe | aaas: Thanks, I'll try to find it. | 23:08 |
| aaas | xpe otherwise see if you can find the deb for that version to install and then remove or MOVE that from /boot, edit the right grub files and update grub....not totally sure abou tthis way you'll need to check some guides online for how to manually remove a kernel | 23:08 |
| bmfmancinilool | any help would be appreciated | 23:09 |
| aaas | xpe there's generally a place that people copy the raw source too...i dont remember check the kernel compile guides...maybe also check /opt | 23:09 |
| Loshki | cetex: wow, not much debugging support. Sorry, out of ideas... | 23:09 |
| xpe | . /opt is empty | 23:10 |
| aaas | xpe yes that's not standard....i dont remember where but if not in some /home dir then it's like /usr/share/linux?...i dont remember i haven't compiled a kernel in FOREVER | 23:10 |
| cetex | :) | 23:11 |
| bmfmancinilool | hello ? | 23:11 |
| cetex | thanks anyways. i was hoping someone knew about this "quirk", i'll just have to manage somehow. | 23:11 |
| Loshki | cetex: in desperation I offer: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/faq.html and maybe #upstart, if it still exists. | 23:14 |
| xpe | aaas: There is /usr/src/linux which also contains a 3.2.0 gzip file. Might come form someone who tried to compile the kernel him or herself | 23:14 |
| aaas | xpe yes probably so.....so there is a standard procedure for uninstalling a kernel that was installed from source...i really dont remember..you'll have to google some guides but it's some make command ...'make uninstall' no idea...check the guides | 23:15 |
| xpe | But it doesnt seem to be 3.2.0-62... | 23:15 |
| aaas | ah | 23:15 |
| tdjtdj | I'm having some trouble with directories/files with "special" characters in their names when doing s3fs | 23:15 |
| xpe | I wonder if I can just stop update-initramfs from running on apt-get install | 23:16 |
| aaas | xpe well you can try and run the uninstall procedure of that source and see if it cleans things up...otherwise you'll have to go for the other two solutions | 23:16 |
| aaas | xpe how does that help you? | 23:17 |
| cetex | Loshki: thanks for the help :) | 23:17 |
| Loshki | cetex: I'm on 12.04, but all my /etc/init/* files are .conf files i.e. not runnable scripts. So /etc/init.d/* might be all you need. Unless 14.04 is way different. | 23:17 |
| xpe | Well apt-get install complaints about not enough space on the boot partition when it runs update-initramfs which tries to "Generate /boot/initrd.img-3.2.62". | 23:18 |
| cetex | well, with upstart most of the system setup happens in those conf files. after the base system setup is done it launches a upstart-something-bridge which launches stuff in /etc/init.d/ | 23:18 |
| aaas | xpe ahh so then it did come from some apt install? | 23:18 |
| xpe | It comes up on every apt install when it process initramfs-tools triggers: "Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ..." | 23:19 |
| bekks | xpe: Then you might erase old kernels. | 23:20 |
| bekks | erase=uninstall | 23:20 |
| aaas | hmmm well not sure... well trying to bypass proper apt procedure is a horribly messy way to try and solve the problem | 23:20 |
| aaas | you should try the other two solutions above first if possible | 23:21 |
| xpe | Hi bekks: The problem is, I already did this. The file that takes up all the space on the /boot is initrd.img-3.2.62 itself | 23:21 |
| aaas | xpe do you have initrd, vmlinuz, System.maps for that kernel? | 23:24 |
| aaas | if so and you run 'dpkg -S' on the vmlinuz file what does it say | 23:24 |
| bekks | xpe: So pastebin "ls -lha /boot" and "df -h" please. | 23:24 |
| celexi | how is your /boot so small if one init image is using it all up | 23:24 |

| xpe | Only the initrd file exist, the /boot partition is about 200M, the initrd.img-3.2.62 is 115M (and I don't want it ;)). I don't really want to resize the partition since it's not my personal system. | 23:26 |

| xpe | bekks: ls -ahl is here: http://pastebin.com/JSG2JNiK | 23:29 |
| bekks | So there are at least two old kernel which can be deleted. | 23:29 |

| bmfmancinilool | hello | 23:31 |

| aaas | which was not installed through apt | 23:33 |
| aaas | xpe make sure you run update-grub too | 23:34 |
| bekks | aaas: Taking a look at the ls -lha paste show that two old kernel were installed by apt-get ... | 23:34 |

| cetex | dpkg --list | grep linux-image ? | 23:35 |
| cetex | :) | 23:35 |
| aaas | it doesn't show it | 23:35 |
| xpe | bekks: Apparently the problem simply was that there already existed a initrd.img-3.2-062 file. I moved it, apt-get install -f trigger initramfs-tools again and it recreated the file. But now apt-get install doesn't complain anymore :) | 23:35 |

| andy__ | you havent blocked yourself? | 23:43 |

| lauren | cetex: which was weird, because when I unhook the ethernet and manually set the ipv4, it connects | 23:44 |
| lauren | andy__: blocked myself? | 23:44 |
| bekks | lauren: So how are you trying to connect to the internet then, when saying you connected to the modem successfully? | 23:44 |
| cetex | I guess if you entered the mac address of the client that can't connect now, it's the modem that can't handle having the same mac on multiple places. | 23:44 |
| lauren | bekks: I am connected wirelessly, but still can't get online! It's very frustrating | 23:45 |
| bekks | lauren: Define "cant get online". How exactly do you try? | 23:45 |

| cetex | lauren: remove the mac address you entered into the modem. i guess you'll have to disconnect it for a while as well (a few minutes to half an hour) as the isp may not be too happy about allowing another mac address to connect too soon. | 23:47 |
| lauren | cetex: alright, will try that | 23:47 |
| cetex | if you can connect with that computer after you've removed the mac address you know that it's related. | 23:47 |
| cetex | this is assuming that the mac-address you entered into the modem was the one from that computer :) | 23:48 |
| cetex | did dhcp work / did the network connect on that computer before you configured the mac address? | 23:49 |
| lauren | cetex: it was the mac address that came up automatically. No dhcp didn't work before, which is why I had to switch to a manual ipv4 setting, and put in the ip address, subnet mask and gateway myself | 23:50 |
| lauren | which took me the better part of 2 hours | 23:50 |
| cetex | hm, that's weird. | 23:50 |
| lauren | This all happened after getting the new modem, it connected to the old centurylink modem fine | 23:51 |
