[00:00] <maimster> Kimboo: When the move scrolls outside the browser does it just disappear?
[00:00] <maimster> Kimboo: move=mouse
[00:01] <Kimboo> sometimes maimster, especially if im in system settings
[00:01] <Kimboo> it blinks like crazy im in anything else other than the web browser
[00:04] <maimster> Kimboo: Can you run top to see the processes? Maybe there's one using a lot of CPU usage. Just guessing here.
[00:04] <Kimboo> hm... lemme try
[00:05] <Kimboo> nah, it's not that, also im on a 4770k...
[00:05] <Kimboo> maimster
[00:05] <maimster> Kimboo: I have seen systems run funky on LiveCDs. However once the CD spin catches up all is fine.
[00:06] <Kimboo> well, everything is running from the USB stick
[00:06] <Kimboo> maimster, damn i keep forgetting to tag, long time since i used IRC...
[00:06] <maimster> Kimboo: What's the speed of the USB stick?
[00:06] <maimster> Kimboo: No problem.
[00:07] <Kimboo> maimster: well, 30MB/s i think
[00:07] <maimster> Kimboo: Jeez plenty fast enough.
[00:08] <maimster> Kimboo: I have a few HDDs not running at that speed.
[00:08] <Kimboo> hm... well, as i said, it worked prefectly before i made it presistence...
[00:09] <maimster> Kimboo: The LiveCD worked fine without persistent mode.
[00:09] <maimster> Kimboo: Not mouse issues.
[00:09] <Kimboo> maimster: correct!
[00:09] <maimster> Kimboo: Interesting...
[00:09] <Kimboo> maimster: it's weird, ain't i?
[00:10] <maimster> Kimboo: Bigtime.
[00:10] <Kimboo> happend both with Kali and Ubuntu, on 2 different sticks
[00:10] <maimster> Kimboo: I fail to see what persistent mode has to do with it.
[00:10] <redemptionsong> aye, I need to use macchanger and to use the -r (random) flag. That flag sets the entire mac random (rather than jsut the first half of it). When I attempt to use the -r, the -b, or the  - rb flag it returns the same mac I have (the factory one). What am I doing wrong here?
[00:10] <maimster> Kimboo: Sounds almost like persistent is using resources differently.
[00:11] <redemptionsong> It does work with the -A flag but that only sets the first half of the address Inot the whole thing).
[00:11] <Kimboo> maimster: but all i did was to use the unallocated space of the stick to make it a seperate partition, so the ubunu/kali partition was never touched
[00:12] <maimster> Kimboo: What's the computer's processor?
[00:12] <Kimboo> maimster: 4770k
[00:12] <maimster> Kimboo: Ahh you said that, sorry.
[00:12] <Kimboo> Maimster: so i got plenty of power! both on ram/gpu and CPU side
[00:13] <maimster> Kimboo: Jeez a beast chip.
[00:13] <maimster> Kimboo: I wish.
[00:13] <Kimboo> maimster: well, i sold my car to afford it, hehe
[00:13] <maimster> Kimboo: Jeez man...
[00:14] <Kimboo> maimster: The car was too expensive for me to have, so i sold it and bought myself a beast machine
[00:14] <maimster> Kimboo: Hardcore.
[00:14] <maimster> Kimboo: I like the way you think.
[00:14] <Kimboo> Maimster: im not really in need of a car either way so
[00:14] <maimster> Kimboo: Xubuntu would sly with a chip like that under her. Then again any OS would.
[00:15] <maimster> sly=fly
[00:15] <Kimboo> Maimster: haha yea, any OS would
[00:15] <arkana> is there a way to resize my ubuntu partition from windows?
[00:15] <Kimboo> Arkana: i just used a tool, lemme check he name of it
[00:16] <Kimboo> Arkana: http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html
[00:16] <maimster> arkana: Is Partition Magic still around?
[00:16] <Kimboo> Arkana: If you're not able to do it from that i don't know
[00:16] <arkana> Kimboo: thanks a lot
[00:16] <arkana> i hope that i can do it
[00:17] <arkana> i know i could make a live usb with eh i just forgot what it's called
[00:17] <arkana> gparted
[00:17] <arkana> there we go
[00:17] <ChubMcGrub> Hey, does anyone have a second to help me with ubuntu install?
[00:17] <Kimboo> What the hell, i jus noticed that if i press both muse buttons at the same time i works?
[00:17] <maimster> Kimboo: I just parted for most of that stuff.
[00:17] <arkana> i know how to do it with a live usb with gparted, but my flash drive just died
[00:18] <Kimboo> seemed it was only a one time thing...
[00:18] <maimster> Kimboo: Have you tried to use another mouse?
[00:18] <arkana> i made the mistake of allocating the entire terabyte to ubuntu
[00:18] <Kimboo> maimster: yea, event 2 different comupters
[00:18] <ChubMcGrub> the install went well, but when I rebooted it just starts windows without giving me the option to start ubuntu.
[00:18] <Kimboo> even*
[00:18] <maimster> Kimboo: Got it.
[00:18] <arkana> now i'm running vms which are much better
[00:19]  * maimster should start downloading those isos....
[00:20] <arkana> it would be cool if you could vm gparted and resize your physical partition
[00:31] <Scunizi> What program/package will allow me to view and fill out a pdf form that includes numbers.  It must also show/allow the form to calculate the numbers (simple add/subtract/divide/multiply stuff)
[00:33] <daftykins> that is not what PDFs do
[00:33] <Scunizi> daftykins: they can (fdf) with imbedded java script.
[00:34] <daftykins> so.. not a PDF? :)
[00:34] <daftykins> a lot of office apps export to PDF.
[00:35] <Scunizi> it's opened in a typical pdf viewer.  I have no issues opening a form and filling it out.. it's just the math that's embedded in the form won't function.  It WILL work on acrobat on a windows or mac machine.. I don't like acrobat so I'm looking for something else.
[00:35] <qxt> I'm using xfce on ubuntu. Looking at " grep -i driver /var/log/Xorg.0.log " it looks like the ast video driver did not load correctly. For some reason though I still have graphics. Is there a definitive way to see what video driver I am using?
[00:39] <daftykins> Scunizi: yeah, editable fields ones typically only work in Adobe official, even in Windows land.
[00:39] <omgitsmit> qxt: lsmod will list all the kernel modules which are currently loaded, you can pipe to grep and try to figure out whats in use.
[00:39] <omgitsmit> qxt: i.e. lsmod | grep nvidia
[00:40] <omgitsmit> qxt: also hwinfo -gfxcard or lspci -k
[00:40] <sky_net> !kali
[00:40] <qxt> yeah I did that. Found a few video modules. Been looking at them with modinfo too. Just dont know the one I am using atm =P
[00:40] <j_t> I am trying to apt-get update, but it is going to an invalid ip address. It's not the same ip address as when I do say host mirror.mydomain.com
[00:40] <j_t> How can I find out where apt-get gets this ip address from?
[00:40] <omgitsmit> qxt: lsmod will show whats loaded
[00:41] <qxt> was a big list
[00:41] <qxt> tired lsmod |grep -i vga
[00:41] <Scunizi> daftykins: and they recently removed the old outdated adobe reader from their download section.. still available through ftp but still .. it's seen no love in a long time. probably rather vulnerable to bugs/bad guys.
[00:42] <qxt> omgitsmit, the problem is that I dont now what all the mods do
[00:42] <omgitsmit> qxt: sudo lspci -k
[00:42] <daftykins> Scunizi: every PDF reader is
[00:42] <omgitsmit> qxt: my driver is shown under "VGA compatible controller"
[00:42] <omgitsmit> qxt: grepping it will miss it
[00:43] <Scunizi> daftykins: yep.. more so with a 2yr out of date version.
[00:44] <qxt> omgitsmit, thx found it in lspci =)  	Kernel driver in use: ast
[00:44] <omgitsmit> qxt: yay!
[00:53] <hplc> hi, on the recieving end of Growl messages, i have a kubuntu box, the sender works as should, but on ubuntu i dont get any pop-ups / notifications about a Growl alert message, i installed "notify-osd", a mac-clone for linux to recieve growls, firewall on ubuntu is off, so why doesnt the growls (wich is a push service) go thru?
[00:57] <redemptionsong> no one is into macchanger round' here eh?
[00:57] <daftykins> didn't see you ask about it.
[00:58] <daftykins> redemptionsong: macchanger -c interface ; is how it goes i thought
[00:58] <redemptionsong> hmm
[00:58] <redemptionsong> I'll try that
[00:59] <daftykins> redemptionsong: why not just read the man page which tells you how to use it? also why are you changing MAC...
[00:59] <gr33n7007h> redemptionsong: You want a random mac address?
[01:00] <genii> changing your mac address is pretty useless in most instances
[01:03] <zhuweilin> Hi everyone here, I am experiencing big problems to add a windows computer printer to different ubuntu flavour computers, basically the browse button  on config printer is grey and stucked, any idea to solve it?
[01:04] <uRock> I just created an encrypted volume and when I go into it, I have found that it is owned by root. How do I chown it?
[01:05] <zhuweilin> chmod 777 ?
[01:05] <daftykins> zhuweilin: no, and never advise that.
[01:06] <zhuweilin> sorry
[01:06] <uRock> zhuweilin, do I cd to /media and do it from there?
[01:06] <RevEckzeff> even I know that's wrong...and I've only been tinkering with Ubuntu for less than a week
[01:06] <uRock> daftykins, I know better than 777. It'll be 770
[01:06] <zhuweilin> wait, seem dafty know it
[01:06] <daftykins> ownership is nothing to do with octal perms
[01:07] <uRock> daftykins, Do I cd to /media, then chown it?
[01:07] <zhuweilin> then help uRock, and say it how
[01:07] <uRock> thanks zhuweilin
[01:07] <daftykins> zhuweilin: you do not need to tell me how to assist someone, back off please :)
[01:08] <daftykins> uRock: run this please "ls -al /path/you/are/talking/about | pastebinit"
[01:08] <daftykins> might need sudo if it's root owned and you can't look in. you may also need to install pastebinit
[01:08] <zhuweilin> lol, im waiting someone helping me with horrible printing manager dafty, take it easy
[01:08] <daftykins> yes i know what your question is.

[01:10] <redemptionsong> gr33n7007h: Yeah that's it. I've used macchanger -A wlan0     before but this time I need the completely random (burnt in option too would be nice but not critical) option and it's screwin up on me.
[01:10] <duoi> t0nt0, what?
[01:10] <OerHeks>  
[01:11] <gr33n7007h> redemptionsong: macchanger -r wlan0 # or whatever your interface is
[01:11] <uRock> daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10380468/
[01:11] <redemptionsong> gr33n7007h: Well, by "completely" I mean all the bits not just the first half of em (would like vendor bits changed too)
[01:12] <gr33n7007h> redemptionsong: set your own mac then
[01:12] <redemptionsong> gr33n7007h: Right, I did that and I get the following output ... hang on
[01:12] <daftykins> uRock: so what folder are we talking about...
[01:13] <daftykins> uRock: 'truecrypt1' ?
[01:13] <uRock> daftykins, truecrypt1
[01:13] <daftykins> also, i hope you are using the last trusted version of truecrypt :P
[01:13] <uRock> yes, using their last
[01:13] <daftykins> their last was taken over though 0o
[01:14] <daftykins> uRock: sudo chown -R ronnie: /path/to/truecrypt1
[01:14] <uRock> dafty, thanks
[01:15] <uRock> daftykins, that worked, thanx
[01:15] <zhuweilin> yes uRock i readed it that USA NSA likes people use truecrypt
[01:16] <redemptionsong> gr33n7007h:  http://pastebin.com/pBTi3dse
[01:16] <daftykins> i should hope so ;)
[01:16] <uRock> zhuweilin, I don't trust any software maker when it comes to encryption
[01:16] <zhuweilin> : ) ok then
[01:17] <redemptionsong> gr33n7007h:  Will any made up numbers (provided they follow the format exactly) - actually work/function?
[01:17] <RedWar> I have telepathy.  All I have to do is wrap aluminum foil on my head.
[01:17] <gr33n7007h> redemptionsong: try this: "ip link set wlan0 down && ip link set wlan0 address 00:11:22:33:44:55 && ip link set wlan0 up && ip link ls wlan0"
[01:18] <redemptionsong> gr33n7007h:  I'll never get back from that in the future if I don't use a program for it like macchanger (sorry man)  :s
[01:19] <gr33n7007h> redemptionsong: is your interface down?
[01:19] <redemptionsong> not at this exact moment but it was when I tried the -r earlier
[01:20] <redemptionsong> I get that it needs to be though
[01:22] <redemptionsong> gr33n7007h: Well, macchanger does have a flag for setting your own address, I can try that - I just didn't know if using just anything would actually function on the internet. If you give an example of 00:11:22:33:44:55 then probably so I guess. I can try it though and find out.
[01:23] <gr33n7007h> redemptionsong: Have you tried setting a mac manually using: "macchanger -m 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0"
[01:25] <OerHeks> If network-manager is running, it will override those mac changes i guess.
[01:25] <gr33n7007h> OerHeks: It won't
[01:28] <dinduks> Hi
[01:30] <dinduks> After reverting to an old kernel version (3.13.0-45 to 3.13.0-45), I lost networking, graphic drivers (Intel) and touch screen support. Is there anyway I can tell Ubuntu to run the magic it does when it's installed for the first time in order to set up everything?
[01:30] <daftykins> those numbers are the same
[01:31] <dinduks> daftykins: 45 to 44
[01:33] <zhuweilin> i will try tomorrow same question, sleeping time here, have a good time developers and forum helpers
[01:35] <freeroute> hi, how do I create a new /boot partition if I don't have enough free space? http://imgur.com/e71ojW9
[01:36] <daftykins> freeroute: you don't need a /boot
[01:36] <jmadero1> hi all - I have an Acer machine running Ubuntu, speakers work fine but I'm getting horribly low volume from headphones
[01:37] <freeroute> daftykins: but... http://imgur.com/5SalhOx
[01:37] <uRock> jmadero1, have you went into settings>sound and turned up the max volume?
[01:38] <jmadero1> uRock: yes - and checked alsamixer
[01:38] <daftykins> freeroute: oh yeah because of encryption. so delete the partition / and recreate
[01:38] <daftykins> or just don't use foolish encryption :)
[01:39] <freeroute> k, erasing data on /
[01:39] <freeroute> encryption should always be encouraged
[01:39] <daftykins> er, no
[01:39] <daftykins> not given how many people come in here after breaking it :)
[01:40] <Jillybean> ?
[01:40] <freeroute> breaking the encryption or losing their data because of inadequate knowledge of how to encrypt their data?
[01:40] <gidim> I have full disk encryption on my system, and I have no issues.
[01:40] <daftykins> breaking their encrypted setup
[01:41] <uRock> freeroute, there's a reason law enforcement knocks nicely on the door when serving warrants on cyber criminals. They trick you away from your system while it is logged in and don't let you get back near it.
[01:41] <daftykins> gidim: anecdotal evidence of one person is pretty useless :)
[01:41] <gidim> Also true. :)
[01:41] <daftykins> alright - back to support only thanks people. it's not story time

[01:44] <luvenfu> nautilus is not responding, what is the problem?
[01:44] <daftykins> luvenfu: can't tell from here
[01:44] <luvenfu> daftykins, i just open and it freeze
[01:44] <uRock> freeroute, there are, but I also agree with daftykins on the high number of folks who "locked" themselves out of their encrypted volume. If you know what you're doing then go for it. Just take all of the safeguards to know you can recover should somthing go wrong.
[01:44] <gr33n7007h> redemptionsong: np :)
[01:45] <freeroute> uRock: luckily things like tomb (https://www.dyne.org/software/tomb/) make things much more easier.
[01:45] <luvenfu> how i fix it/
[01:46] <debzl> hello everyone, could you please give me the full dd command for disk partition erase?
[01:46] <uRock> freeroute, I'll have to bookmark that link.
[01:47] <freeroute> it's pretty cool, basically a wrapper for LUKS
[01:47] <gr33n7007h> debzl: if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/urandom
[01:47] <debzl> is this one correct:  sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=4k conv=noerror   ?
[01:47] <debzl> is this one correct:  sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda1 bs=4k conv=noerror   ?
[01:47] <debzl> sorry I mean the second one
[01:48] <uRock> debzl, look hear for good text on dd and cleaning a disk
[01:49] <gr33n7007h> debzl: yeah thats right always get it wrong way round :)
[01:49] <debzl> I did this before, I only need to know if this command is correct
[01:49] <gr33n7007h> debzl: yep :)
[01:50] <debzl> gr33n7007h, thank you!
[01:50] <uRock> dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdX bs=4096
[01:50] <debzl> uRock, thank you!
[01:50] <gr33n7007h> debzl: use either /dev/zero or better /dev/urandom fine
[01:52] <luvenfu> tell me another good file manager for ubuntu
[01:52] <luvenfu> please
[01:52] <uRock> luvenfu, nemo
[01:52] <debzl> just curious, does the duration change when /dev/zero or /dev/urandom is used?
[01:52] <uRock> I use it and love it
[01:53] <debzl> i mean time to complete the erase
[01:53] <somsip> luvenfu: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_managers
[01:53] <Rory> debzl: they both give bytes forever
[01:53] <Rory> debzl: /dev/urandom gives random bytes, /dev/zero gives null bytes
[01:53] <uRock> debzl, if you're asking which would take longer, then I'd say urandum would take longer.
[01:54] <luvenfu> somsip, thanks
[01:54] <luvenfu> uRock, thanks
[01:54] <Rory> debzl: /dev/zero probably gives more bytes per second, because zero is easier than random probably
[01:54] <uRock> yw
[01:54] <debzl> Rory, I see, thank you!
[01:55] <debzl> that was why I thought it might take shorter with zeros
[01:55] <Rory> debzl: not shorter, unless you're saying "read for 10 seconds" from both - in that case you'd get more bytes out of /dev/zero in that time
[01:56] <gr33n7007h> debzl: realistically both are with milliseconds so no real effective difference
[01:56] <Rory> debzl: Indeed. You won't see any difference in real life, probably. If you want a more specific answer you'll have to share what you're trying to do

[02:02] <uRock> RedWar, I almost spit water on my screen when I read that
[02:02] <RedWar> uRock: I tell you what, never a dull moment in here.
[02:03] <daftykins> ok lets grow up and move on now please people. you can continue to waste time discussing this incident over in #ubuntu-offtopic if you like
[02:03] <uRock> when there is a spammer comes along to wake things up
[02:03] <trinque> *eyeroll*
[02:03] <RevEckzeff> Never a dull moment...guaranteed something will be way over your head
[02:03] <RedWar> Probably RevEckzeff
[02:03] <phunyguy> sorry daftykins, thanks for the heads up.  Went afk for a second, but I was watching.
[02:04] <trinque> anyone want to get down to business and help me hax usb_modeswitch?
[02:04] <trinque> I just need it to wait a bit longer than 20s
[02:04] <trinque> the second time I run it, it always brings the modem to life
[02:05] <uRock> trinque, what is the hardware?
[02:05] <freeroute> daftykins: I erased the partition but it still appears to be there
[02:05] <trinque> uRock: Huawei 12d1:1c07
[02:05] <daftykins> freeroute: ok, i'm leaving now though
[02:06] <freeroute> ah no problem, thanks for the help so far :)
[02:07] <uRock> freeroute, put ubuntu on a thumb drive and install nautilus whipe and secure delete.
[02:08] <uRock> The Gparted image should be able to get it done as well
[02:08] <freeroute> so should I quit out of the netinstall setup?
[02:12] <uRock> trinque, From the searching I did, I could not find anything useful.
[02:13] <trinque> uRock: thanks for looking for me :)
[02:13] <uRock> freeroute, to go those other routes, yes, but that sounds counter intuitive to what it looks like you're trying to do.
[02:14] <freeroute> uRock: I'm just trying to setup encrypted FS (except /boot I suppose), and if that fails just encrypted /home.
[02:15] <gr33n7007h> trinque: try with '-s <seconds>'? maybe or try wvdial
[02:16] <trinque> gr33n7007h: I'm using wvdial, seemed like it ignored -s 30
[02:16] <trinque> wvdial doesn't switch the thing from storage to modem mode, afaik
[02:17] <gr33n7007h> ah, haven't dabbled with these for years :(
[02:22] <gr33n7007h> trinque: what is exactly the problem?
[02:24] <xkcrohana> How can I open vim session within vim? (equivalent to vim -S session.vim but from within vim).
[02:25] <gr33n7007h> xkcrohana: #vim it's a friendly place :)
[02:26] <xkcrohana> gr33n7007h: I don't have a freenode account so I talk there
[02:26] <xkcrohana> can't*
[02:26] <somsip> !register | xkcrohana
[02:27] <xkcrohana> Yeah that's not the problem I just don't want to do it right now..
[02:27] <xkcrohana> I was hoping someone here knows the answer
[02:30] <xkcrohana> stupid me, you simply do "source session.vim"
[02:33] <Statue> Hello
[02:34] <IPJunkie> hi
[02:41] <freeroute> even if I do 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1 conv=notrunc' those encrypted volumes still persist... serious wtf moment here
[02:41] <freeroute> hi IPJunkie
[02:42] <freeroute> http://imgur.com/e71ojW9
[02:42] <freeroute> that sda2_crypt and sda5_crypt... how do I remove them?
[03:03] <jangorang> Hey all. I'm getting started developing for my ubuntu desktop, running unity.  What is the preferred/standard stack for writing desktop apps with user interfaces?
[03:17] <specialspecials> woohoo amirite
[03:17] <sennn> i need maelstrom browser download code
[03:20] <Freeder_> Hi, I'm following http://pcengines.info/forums/?page=post&id=E25612E9-84F0-4DCF-A876-1E92FD1D065C to install ubuntu on an APU4, and while I get the install prompt (titled uetbootin), the install option listed doesnt do anything- just resets the timer and stays on the same screen
[03:20] <bazhang> !info maelstrom | sennn
[03:20] <bazhang> sennn, install from the package manager
[03:20] <Freeder> Any ideas what would cause a 'loop' of an install option?
[03:21] <sennn> bazhang, i mean mealstrom browser .the web browser!!!
[03:21] <sennn> maelstrom
[03:22] <bazhang> sennn, from where
[03:23] <somsip> sennn: nothing to do with ubuntu http://blog.bittorrent.com/2014/12/10/project-maelstrom-the-internet-we-build-next/
[03:23] <bazhang> contact the maelstrom people for that sennn , not an ubuntu issue at all
[03:24] <pedrodias> hello everyone
[03:24] <sennn> fine
[03:24] <pedrodias> can i have some assistance please ? Xubuntu Hotspot
[03:25] <pedrodias> i cannot find the option to start using my ethernet connection as a hotspot
[03:25] <pedrodias> why ?
[03:25] <pedrodias> Xubuntu
[03:25] <bazhang> !ics | pedrodias you mean this?
[03:26] <pedrodias> let me see, brb
[03:27] <pedrodias> wowowo
[03:27] <pedrodias> thats some network knowlodge needed O.o
[03:27] <pedrodias> isnt there a option somewhere ?
[03:28] <pedrodias> or a terminal code ?
[03:28] <gr33n7007h> pedrodias: network settings
[03:28] <pedrodias> it only shows me my ethernet connection ...
[03:29] <pedrodias> can i place screenshots here ?
[03:29] <gr33n7007h> And I think it can only done with wireless :)
[03:29] <pedrodias> i dont think so, right ?
[03:29] <pedrodias> wait ... i cn only share my wireless connection ?
[03:29] <pedrodias> thats not right ...
[03:30] <pedrodias> i mean, i have only 1 ethernet connection ... i want to transform my xubuntu machine, into a wifi hotspot for my android phone to connect, simple
[03:30] <gr33n7007h> as a hotspot yes
[03:31] <pedrodias> on win7, i used to use virtual router
[03:31] <pedrodias> i dont seem to be able to use anything, because it seems to be built in xubuntu
[03:31] <pedrodias> but i cant find it
[03:33] <Passive-> I would like to know how to do that as well!
[03:33] <gr33n7007h> pedrodias: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/09/3-ways-create-wifi-hotspot-ubuntu/
[03:34] <pedrodias> i mean, this is a simple thing and i bet common to do ... but i can never get any help on this ...
[03:34] <pedrodias> gr33n7007h, i try the ubuntu way ... but xubuntu seems a low cost edition, i dont have the same options neither the same icons
[03:35] <gr33n7007h> pedrodias: xubuntu is ubuntu with xfce that is all
[03:35] <bazhang> pedrodias, did you read the link he *just* gave you?
[03:35] <pedrodias> yeah, thats what i thought too
[03:36] <Freeder> Hi, I'm following http://pcengines.info/forums/?page=post&id=E25612E9-84F0-4DCF-A876-1E92FD1D065C (modifying the boot menu to work via console, mostly) to install ubuntu on an APU4, and while I get the install prompt (titled uetbootin), when I choose the install option listed, nothing happens- the selection timer just resets and it stays on the same screen. What could be a source of problem?
[03:36] <mnxcr> hi
[03:37] <pedrodias> bazhang, i im going to try the hack .. brb
[03:38] <mnxcr> welcome
[03:45] <aaronjgr> Does anyone here have any experience with UFW?
[03:45] <teward> aaronjgr: i have some, but i have more experience with the underlying netfilter/iptables that ufw manipulates
[03:45] <bazhang> aaronjgr, tried using gufw for a gui front end with that yet?
[03:46] <teward> aaronjgr: rather than asking if someone has experience, either use gufw for a GUI, or ask your real question
[03:46] <teward> !anyone
[03:46] <teward> boo
[03:46] <bazhang> teward, perhaps !details in this instance
[03:46] <aaronjgr> I want to know if it's possible to filter _outgoing_ requests /to/ a specific destination port.
[03:46] <teward> bazhang: indeed
[03:46] <teward> aaronjgr: filter how
[03:47] <aaronjgr> I want to only allow outgoing TCP requests to a destination port 443
[03:47] <teward> aaronjgr: and nothing else
[03:47] <teward> ?
[03:47] <aaronjgr> Nothing else outgoing. I want to allow incoming on 22, 80, 443, 3080, and 3443. All those are set up.
[03:48] <teward> aaronjgr: well, you just nuked the computer's ability to find remote web addresses (port 53 udp, DNS)
[03:48] <teward> and the ability to use HTTP (port 80 tcp)
[03:48] <teward> so unless you explain your use case i question the implementation
[03:51] <aaronjgr> teward: Ha! You are right to question my implementation; I'm new to this stuff. It's just a basic web server, which is listening on ports 3080 and 3443. I have rules set up in /etc/ufw/before.rules that forward requests from 80 to 3080 and 443 to 3443. The web server needs to be able to make outgoing HTTPS requests to a 3rd party service. Does that help?
[03:51] <teward> aaronjgr: does the 3rd party service reside at a hostname that does not have an entry in /etc/hosts and is not static
[03:52] <teward> (if it is NOT a static IP, or the hostname is not defined in /etc/hosts, you have to open DNS udp/53 outbound)
[03:52] <teward> aaronjgr: and note I would prefer to do this via iptables - you can make sure RELATED,ESTABLISHED traffic can go outbound as well
[03:52] <teward> (rather than assume ufw is that smart)
[03:53] <teward> bazhang: there's a manpage for ufw right?
[03:54] <teward> published under manpages.ubuntu.com?
[03:54] <teward> (I can't find one, unless it's just Chrome derping)
[03:54] <aaronjgr> The hostname doesn't have an entry in /etc/hosts, and I'm not sure whether the IP it's static. The service is Stripe.
[03:54] <teward> oh
[03:54] <aaronjgr> There is a manpage, but it wasn't specific enough for me
[03:54] <MarconM> how i can mount a shared folder linux to linux automatic on boot
[03:54] <confused_noob_13> I just installed ubuntu today. I set up Thunderbird to work with gmail, but I can't seem to get any kind of new email notifications to display anywhere visually on the screen. Is there a generally accepted way to do that in linux? Is there a better place to ask questions about cosmetic things?
[03:54] <MarconM> i mount with mount -t cifs //10.1.1.2/Archives /mnt/archives -o rw
[03:54] <teward> aaronjgr: i'd leave DNS outbound allowed, DNS on its own can't be harmful, especially if you lock down the outbound
[03:55] <teward> aaronjgr: lemme dig into the manpage first though
[03:55] <MarconM> ahs a way to mount on start up
[03:55] <aaronjgr> Okay sure
[03:55] <aaronjgr> And yeah, I will allow outgoing on 53/udp
[03:55] <mssbrg> How stable is Ubuntu 15 Vivid? Would it be a bad idea to upgrade?
[03:56] <bazhang> mssbrg, bad idea, support in #ubuntu+1
[03:57] <teward> aaronjgr: ehh, FWIW, ufw is not intended to provide complete firewall functionality via its interface, which is why i referenced iptables
[03:57] <teward> aaronjgr: any particular reason you want to do this with ufw other than the fact it's easy and exists on your computer
[03:58] <eddydbod> echo "hello all"
[03:58] <aaronjgr> teward: Nope, those are the only reasons. I have iptables too, but ufw seemed easier to learn (given that I haven't ever set up a firewall). To your knowledge, is what I'm trying to do capable with iptables? If so, I'll just learn how to use that.
[03:59] <teward> aaronjgr: I mean, I've done *some* things like this, but typically I haven't restricted outbound on a server, only inbound
[03:59] <teward> aaronjgr: and the reason i do it that way is because, well, you have issues with RELATED,ESTABLISHED traffic
[03:59] <HeyOhh> hello all
[04:00] <eddydbod> hi heyohh
[04:00] <teward> aaronjgr: if you restrict all outbound traffic in the manner you're looking to do, you may have unexpected side effects when trying to relay data to the clients who are poking at your web server
[04:00] <eddydbod> i also recommend iptables, hard to use but it's industry standard even on the red hat side of things
[04:00] <aaronjgr> teward: What do you mean by RELATED,ESTABLISHED traffic? Is that a technical term? I'm not familiar.
[04:01] <aaronjgr> eddydbod: I will probably take a look at iptables and see if it can accomplish what I'm trying to do.
[04:01] <fazeela> hai, I have installed fontforge on ubuntu, when i type fontforge o terminal, it is showinf this error http://pastebin.com/DGGCaNAh and it opens a white rectangular box for font forge
[04:01] <teward> aaronjgr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo  <--
[04:01] <teward> aaronjgr: i'd look at the "Basic iptables options" section it explains what those mean
[04:01] <teward> aaronjgr: especially #4 under that
[04:02] <teward> aaronjgr: my only consideration point here is you have to keep in mind there's connections outbound from your server to the requesting IP
[04:02] <aaronjgr> teward: Cool, thanks for the tips. Not even sure I need to restrict all outbound traffic; unsure of the security win. Only reason I'm doing it is because I read some article about hardening a server (last one got hacked)
[04:02] <teward> aaronjgr: in that if I request data from local:12345 (web browser port opened automatically), to your server at remote:80, it has to respond outbound as well over port 80 to the remote
[04:03] <teward> aaronjgr: you can probably do what you want to do with iptables over ufw, but I can't guarantee it'll work the way you need it to.  if you give me a minute I'll write up a ruleset that you can use
[04:04] <aaronjgr> teward: That would be super helpful, thank you very much
[04:04] <teward> aaronjgr: PM?
[04:04] <teward> aaronjgr: since i need more data than you probably want to share here :)
[04:05] <fazeela> hi, any one have any suggestion on fontforge error that is coming while installing
[04:05] <bazhang> why not pastebin it
[04:05] <pringles2014tb> I used ubuntu a lot of time and I been using windows but I just change back to Ubuntu on my Dell laptop and it works so Great I love it :)
[04:05] <teward> bazhang: ports and such
[04:06] <teward> oh wait
[04:06] <teward> duh
[04:06] <teward> scrollback
[04:06]  * teward feels stupid
[04:06] <teward> hmm
[04:06] <bazhang> teward, we ask for pastebin in support here, not taking it off the grid PM as a general rule of support
[04:06] <teward> bazhang: true
[04:07] <teward> bazhang: i'm not fond of port forwarding internally though i actually hate it
[04:07] <teward> bazhang: but he already answered (most) of my questions
[04:07] <pringles2014tb> Teward: Hello
[04:07] <aaronjgr> teward: Er, yeah...how can I do that from webchat?
[04:07] <aaronjgr> teward: What other information do you need?
[04:08] <teward> aaronjgr: can you pastebin your /etc/ufw/before.rules?
[04:08] <teward> want to make sure i capture your required port forwards too :P
[04:08] <teward> !pastebin > aaronjgr
[04:09] <Rahul__> Mayer, hii
[04:09] <Mayer> Yes
[04:09] <aaronjgr> teward: Here it is, only the *nat block is changed from the default: http://pastebin.com/vbYq70Cy
[04:10] <teward> aaronjgr: right, i still needed that though :p
[04:10] <teward> oh hey this is what i needed
[04:11] <pedrodias> ok, i need to edit a file belonging to root
[04:12] <pedrodias> and it does not recognize me as root
[04:12] <pedrodias> i have tried with gsku ... and going with nautilus.. nothing
[04:14] <teward> aaronjgr: do you have a specific URL/hostname you have to reach out to for Stripe
[04:14] <pedrodias> can someone help me , please ?
[04:14] <teward> aaronjgr: 'cause otherwise i'm guessing
[04:14] <somsip> pedrodias: what file, what command are you using to edit it?
[04:15] <pedrodias> a wifi network connection filme i just created
[04:15] <pedrodias> now i need to edit some lines
[04:15] <pedrodias> and it does not open
[04:15] <somsip> pedrodias: what is the command line you are using to edit the file
[04:16] <teward> aaronjgr: the other question: I assume you need ssh access :P
[04:16] <pedrodias> no command line... im using the option open with gsku on nautilus
[04:16] <aaronjgr> teward: Let me check on that really quickly—gonna dive into node-stripe for a second. The actual API request is handled by that script
[04:16] <aaronjgr> Yes SSH access would be good for me to have!
[04:16] <pedrodias> it asks me the passsword, i insert it .. it spins and nothing
[04:16] <somsip> pedrodias: what is the file name?
[04:16] <pedrodias> testezito
[04:17] <pedrodias> i made up a name for the new wifi connection
[04:17] <somsip> pedrodias: ok...what is the full path to the file?
[04:17] <pedrodias> let me check
[04:17] <aaronjgr> teward:api.stripe.com, port 443
[04:18] <pedrodias> /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/testezito
[04:18] <somsip> pedrodias: open a terminal and type 'sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/testezito' what happens?
[04:19] <pedrodias> it asked me for the password
[04:19] <somsip> pedrodias: and after you type it in?
[04:19] <pedrodias> and now its opened on terminal, i guess i can make edit now
[04:19] <somsip> pedrodias: do you understand how to use nano?
[04:20] <pedrodias> nope
[04:20] <teward> aaronjgr: i assume v4 only?
[04:20] <teward> aaronjgr: or is there v6 on your server
[04:20] <teward> IPv4 / IPv6 *
[04:20] <aaronjgr> teward: Yeah, v4 only
[04:21] <somsip> pedrodias: make your changes, use the arrow keys and pg-up pg-down to move around. To save do CTRL-O, press Enter, then CTL-X to exit
[04:22] <pedrodias> thx gonna try
[04:23] <teward> aaronjgr: i strongly suggest that you install iptables-persistent as well
[04:23] <teward> and disable ufw
[04:23] <teward> aaronjgr: if you're going to use this iptables ruleset
[04:23] <somsip> pedrodias: this quick guide will tell you more https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Nano/Basics_Guide
[04:23] <teward> but you should review it first, and i'll explain it if you want
[04:23] <teward> one moment while i export it somewhere
[04:24] <aaronjgr> teward: Yeah, will definitely not use ufw if I decide on iptables. Will check out iptables-persistent too.
[04:24] <teward> aaronjgr: do you also want the Ubuntu Update SErvers to be reachable
[04:24] <teward> because that can expand the ruleset quite a bit
[04:25] <aaronjgr> teward: Yes! It just clicked why I keep getting errors when I run sudo apt-get update!
[04:26] <aaronjgr> teward: Ah. Well I someone else has probably posted that ruleset somewhere, right? I can probably figure out that part...
[04:26] <teward> aaronjgr: ok do you know which mirror(s) your server is using?  (if unsure, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list.)
[04:27] <teward> aaronjgr: yeah that's not hard, but i can probably add it if you really want
[04:27] <teward> i think i wrote a ruleset xD
[04:27] <pedrodias> i guess someone understood me wrong ... im not trying to create an AP hotspot ... im trying to creat an Infrastructure one, so my Android can see it
[04:27] <pedrodias> it will not see AO's
[04:27] <pedrodias> AP's
[04:28] <aaronjgr> teward: Don't worry about it the mirrors for the ruleset, it will be a good learning exercise for me.
[04:28] <pedrodias> the link with the 3 ways to create networks on ubuntu ... showed me how to create AP's ...
[04:28] <teward> aaronjgr: okay, so there's 6 links i'm going to give you.
[04:29] <teward> aaronjgr: first the IPv6 - http://paste.ubuntu.com/10382651/ (rules.v6 which you do ip6tables-restore with) | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10382661/ (resultant IPv6 rules - note the first ACCEPT rule on INPUT and OUTPUT is local loopback 127.0.0.1 and such) | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10382679/ (resultant v6 nat table)
[04:29] <teward> aaronjgr: this way internal v6 works, but external which you don't have doesn't
[04:30] <pedrodias> how come i can allways see a simple button on Ubuntu screen ... on Network Connection edit ... that says Use as hotspot...
[04:30] <teward> aaronjgr: alternatively, leave the ipv6 tables alone
[04:30] <pedrodias> and i dont have it on xubuntu, but everyone says its the same thing ...
[04:31] <teward> aaronjgr: now for IPv4 - http://paste.ubuntu.com/10382708/ (rules.v4 which you do iptables-restore with) | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10382715/ (resultant IPv4 rules - note the first ACCEPT rule on INPUT and OUTPUT is local loopback / localhost) | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10382718/ (nat table - the two REDIRECTs are just to accept on port 80 and redirect to 3080)
[04:31] <teward> aaronjgr: do you want me to go line by line and explain what each of the actual rules does?
[04:32] <teward> aaronjgr: (in that first v4 link)
[04:32] <teward> aaronjgr: and ignore the packet counts, those got included in iptables-save by default, they're irrelevant in the short term
[04:33] <teward> aaronjgr: that ruleset does NOT include rules that allow outbound to the repository servers
[04:34] <aaronjgr> teward: This is great! Thanks very much. What do you mean by those second two links being resultant? Are they generated by running the first through iptables-restore?
[04:34] <bleedingmonk> exit
[04:34] <teward> aaronjgr: the first link there is the actual rules file
[04:35] <teward> aaronjgr: the resultant rulesets are the `iptables -L` and `iptables -t nat -L` output
[04:35] <teward> aaronjgr: and yes, that's what the 'resultant' links are - what it looks like when you run `iptables -L` and such
[04:35] <aaronjgr> teward: Okay I see
[04:35] <teward> aaronjgr: however, this restricts outbound such that it WON'T permit outboudn to the ubuntu repository servers
[04:36] <teward> aaronjgr: for that i have to expand the ruleset, and i need to know the mirror(s) and servers you reach out to for updates
[04:36] <teward> (including any extra sources.list files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and such)
[04:36] <teward> aaronjgr: effectively, ufw is a 'simple firewall' but it just adds/removes rules to netfilter / iptables in the backend
[04:36] <teward> it's just a nifty way to manage simple rules
[04:37] <teward> aaronjgr: when it comes down to it, understanding iptables tends to help a lot, since that's the standard.  ufw is just an easy-to-use frontend to the thing
[04:37] <teward> with some default rules and such
[04:37] <aaronjgr> teward: Right. I'll try to figure out how to expand the ruleset to permit outbound to the Ubuntu repository servers.
[04:37] <aaronjgr> teward: Yeah, it sounds like I need to do some reading up on iptables
[04:39] <aaronjgr> teward: Thank you so much for all your help, this has been invaluable. Let me just ask—did you write the first of those files, and then automatically generate the second two?
[04:40] <aaronjgr> teward: Hazarding a guess, it looks like maybe you ran some iptables commands, then did an iptables-save to generate the that first file. And then somehow that was used to generate the second two files?
[04:41] <aaronjgr> teward: I will figure out exactly what those lines mean from the documentation, since that should all be freely available.
[04:41] <teward> aaronjgr: indeed - i did this in a VM
[04:42] <teward> aaronjgr: i keep VMs around for various things :)
[04:42] <teward> aaronjgr: but yes, ultimately, I ran iptables commands, saved the rules, and just ran `iptables -t nat -L` and `iptables -L` and what not to generate the output for 'resultant' links
[04:44] <buddd>  /msg Nickserv identify password7
[04:44] <teward> is it normal to need libc++ and such *after* a program has been compiled
[04:44] <teward> buddd: time for a new password
[04:44] <buddd> haha
[04:44] <buddd> oh well
[04:45] <aaronjgr> teward: Okay, got it. Thank you so much! You've been a huge help. Cheers!
[04:45] <buddd> how do you end an ssh session?
[04:47] <somsip> buddd: CTRL D or 'exit'
[04:47] <buddd> exit seems to end the vagrant box as well
[04:53] <qbs12> USER
[04:56] <wafflejock> buddd, vagrant will keep running unless you do vagrant halt or run a shutdown command, exit will just exit the vagrant ssh connection
[04:57] <buddd> when i just did halt it turned off my computer
[04:59] <wafflejock> buddd, yeah so "halt" by itself is a system command "vagrant halt" is a command to stop the vagrant virtual box instance
[04:59] <wafflejock> buddd, when you do "vagrant up" it just tells it to start the virtual box image and, if it hasn't already run the provisioning script
[05:01] <wafflejock> buddd, if you do "vagrant ssh" then it'll ssh into the virtual box instance that's running (assuming you did "vagrant up") when in that ssh connection if you were to run "halt" you would just stop the virtualbox instance, if you do exit it will exit the ssh connection, but once you're back at a local terminal "halt" would stop your computer and "exit" would close the terminal
[05:02] <wafflejock> all the vagrant commands assume you're running them in a terminal on the host machine not connected via SSH and you're in the folder with the Vagrantfile
[05:02] <buddd> wafflejock: thx. also, do you need to vagrant up into the directory where the files are that you want to use?
[05:03] <wafflejock> buddd, you can only "vagrant up" in a folder with a Vagrantfile and it should specify what shared folders are mapped into the virtual machine, if you install virtualbox manager you can use the GUI to see/modify things as well but usually a quick googling comes up with how to modify the Vagrantfile to make changes to settings too
[05:06] <freeroute> so, I've dd'd /dev/sda with zeroes, so can anyone please explain why these /dev/sda?_crypt still exist? http://imgur.com/hqrOasv
[05:09] <cfhowlett> freeroute, crypt is a partition.  you may very well have wiped the data, but the part's remain.
[05:09] <freeroute> but isn't that partition on /dev/sda as well?
[05:10] <cfhowlett> freeroute, seems so ...
[05:10] <freeroute> so wouldn't that be weird then?
[05:11] <cfhowlett> freeroute, nope.  dd doesn't wipe partition.
[05:11] <cfhowlett> freeroute, more precisely, dd doesn't remove partitions
[05:12] <rolobro> hey, were do i install the bootloader on an windows 7 dual boot? Ubuntu 14.10
[05:12] <freeroute> cfhowlett: but if every bit of data is a zero... how can there still exist a partition on it?
[05:12] <mrwbp> exit
[05:12] <cfhowlett> freeroute, you'll have to ask someone smarter than I.  sorry.
[05:14] <freeroute> ah no worries, it's a baffling situation for sure

[06:11] <Fenixxxx> Newbie here...is this the place to ask about how to fix unicorn upgrade failure fixes?
[06:12] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: can you tell us what goes wrong
[06:14] <Fenixxxx> I havent used linux for at least 10 years. Installed uBuntu 2 dayS ago. 14.04. Upgraded today and now just blank screen with cursor i. Upper left corner
[06:15] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: well upgrades are tricky sometimes, the safest way is to fresh install..but you can try the recoverymode from grub
[06:15] <lotuspsychje> !recovery | Fenixxxx
[06:16] <Fenixxxx> Is it still like this? This kind of thing is why i have  been using mac and microsoft os systems for the past 10 years
[06:16] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: ubuntu has improved alot the last years, you upgraded from an LTS to non-LTS
[06:17] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: if you want stable, stay at 14.04 if you want latest choose 14.10
[06:17] <Fenixxxx> Lts to non lts...guess i should have read up before trying linux again, huh?
[06:18] <lotuspsychje> !lts | Fenixxxx
[06:19] <Fenixxxx> Ok. So just install again from dvd and ignore upgrades...got it.
[06:19] <Fenixxxx> Thanks
[06:20] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: i would reccomend 14.04.2 yes, then updates on not upgrade to 14.10
[06:21] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: then in the year 2019, you will be able to upgrade to a new LTS
[06:21] <Fenixxxx> Not sure if it is worth it. Spent last day and a half getting it like i liked it...do you think it is worth the time investment?
[06:21] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: yes because 14.04 is stable
[06:24] <Fenixxxx> How do i remember to ignore upgrade offers for 5 years? I cant remember why i went to the fridge a few minutes ago
[06:25] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: there's a difference to update or upgrade to newer version
[06:25] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: you will see a big window showing if you want to upgrade to a newer version
[06:26] <lotuspsychje> Fenixxxx: the way i do it, is sudo apt-get update manually from terminal once in a while
[06:27] <Fenixxxx> K...thanks
[06:30] <Bray90820> How would I install multipal apps at once with sudo apt-get

[06:32] <ianorlin> Bray90820, be warned if you misspell a package name into one that doesn't exist it will says pacakge not found and not install everything

[06:38] <EriC^^> well, hp laptop is fried apparently, won't even turn on anymore, anyone recommend a good laptop that works well with ubuntu?
[06:40] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: most laptops work with ubuntu mate, i would just check wifi chipset, no broadcom or realtek
[06:40] <EriC^^> ok
[06:40] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: check the system76 website for ideas on hardware
[06:40] <EriC^^> ok thanks
[06:41] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: i find also dell laptops work very fast with ubuntu
[06:41] <hateball> EriC^^: far as brands themselves go, HP are linux friendly
[06:41] <hateball> as lotuspsychje said, just avoid crappy wifi like Realtek... Broadcom works alright for the most part these days. but intel is the way to go imo
[06:41] <EriC^^> hateball, actually it was superb performance wise, the battery only lasted for 2 hours though and it was a pain to get the hardcoded bios to work with efi
[06:42] <EriC^^> hateball, i see
[06:42] <lotuspsychje> true, intel wifi's rock
[06:43] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: and i would rather check laptops without a hd, and put a samsung evo 850 pro inside
[06:43] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: ssd will spice up your ubuntu needs
[06:43] <EriC^^> cool
[06:44] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: 8sec boot/3 sec halt on samsung ssd here
[06:44] <EriC^^> nice
[06:59] <_shaun_> ow do i attach my usb devices to my kvm virtual machine? there aren't any examples for spice or for tcp
[07:01] <ianorlin> _shaun_, are you using virt-manager?
[07:02] <_shaun_> yep
[07:03] <ianorlin> in the hardware for the virtual mahicne that has an i icon there should be an add hardware button at the bottom and then try usb redirection for the device
[07:14] <_shaun_> hi ian ive tried redirecting virt-manager's usb to my flash drive . but my windows install doesn't register it. i've also added some spice based redirectors in the virt-manager details. there is also a tcp option as a possible alternative but i don't know how to use it. i also haven't come across any documentation to describe it or any examples. could u perhaps advise me
[07:15] <_shaun_> my ubuntu install does register my flash drive and displays its contents
[07:15] <_shaun_> ubuntu is my os and im running windows in my virtual machine within it

[07:42] <rozica> Hi there
[07:42] <IPJunkie1> Hello rozica
[07:44] <rozica> I really need help :( I mistakenly installed sudo apt-get remove --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-utopic on ubuntu 14.04 and now my broadcom BCM43142 is not working anymore. I had to install bcmwl-kernel-source in the first place so my card would work.
[07:44] <rozica> hiker_: IPJunkie1 junkie
[07:45] <rozica> I tried then to remove linux-generic-lts-utopic and reinstall bcmwl-kernel-source but I get an error:modprobe: FATAL: Module wl not found.
[07:45] <rozica> please help :( I relly messed up
[07:46] <rozica> Did I brake my system? :/
[07:48] <buddd> what is the best way to install postgresql
[07:49] <buddd> and by best I mean easiest and least prone to error
[07:49] <somsip> buddd: use the official repo
[07:50] <buddd> and the easiest way to update flash?
[07:50] <somsip> !info flashplugin-installer | buddd (depending on your browser)
[07:51] <buddd> that doesn't seem that useful
[07:51] <somsip> buddd: it's a perfectly cromulent way to install flash
[07:52] <rozica> please help?
[07:52] <buddd> it didn't give me links or any suggestions, just a bunch of version stuff
[07:53] <somsip> buddd: you install the package 'flashplugin-installer'
[07:53] <buddd> from where
[07:53] <somsip> buddd: from the repos
[07:54] <buddd> so just go the the flash website?
[07:54] <somsip> buddd: you install everything from the repos unless you have a very good reason not to and know what you're doing
[07:54] <francesco_> hi
[07:54] <somsip> buddd: no, from the ubuntu repos. Use Software Centre or apt-get
[07:55] <honey21> Not Found  The requested URL /squid-reports was not found on this server. Apache/2.2.22 (Debian) Server at my host Port 80 how can i solve this please help me
[07:55] <somsip> honey21: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[07:56] <honey21> somsip:12.04
[07:56] <buddd> it asked if i was root. i pressed y. and now the terminal is spamming y's
[07:57] <somsip> buddd: you've run the 'yes' command. press CTRL-C to stop it
[07:57] <somsip> honey21: weird how your error message is reporting Debian... What is it exactly you are trying to access?
[07:58] <buddd> so i have the flash plug in installer, how do I find it?
[07:58] <rozica> Can someone please help me out? I don't know how to reinstall bcmwl-kernel-source (drivers for my wlan card) ? It gives me FATAL: Module wl not found.
[07:59] <somsip> !bcm | rozica (is the only advice I can give you)
[07:59] <honey21> somsip:infact iam trying to retrive from debian server but currenntly iam in ubuntu 12.04 verstion
[07:59] <somsip> honey21: so it's a server-side issue and nothing to do with your computer
[07:59] <IPJunkie1> buddd: type "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer" (w/o quotes) into your terminal
[07:59] <honey21> somsip:yeah so can you assit me then
[08:00] <buddd> its installed
[08:00] <somsip> honey21: it's a problem with your Debian server. Nothing to do with ubuntu
[08:00] <buddd> how do i find it
[08:00] <_shaun_> is anyone here familiar with kvm and virt-manager and the attachment of usb devices to the virtual machine? im not getting any success. my ubuntu install does register my flash drive and displays its contentsubuntu is my os and im running windows in my virtual machine within it.
[08:00] <IPJunkie1> buddd: find your terminal?
[08:00] <fidel_> hi - i got a non closeable - empty window on my gnome desktop which is above all other windows. Its titled 'Archive manager' and xkill wont let me close it. any ideas how to get more informations about the possible source and how to close the related process?
[08:00] <somsip> buddd: it will have installed, so when you access a page in your browser that needs flash, it should kick in automatically
[08:00] <buddd> no the plugin, so it updates flash
[08:01] <honey21> somsip:so how can i  solve that mostly they are the same iwth ubuntu
[08:01] <buddd> somsip: it didn't
[08:01] <buddd> somsip: I'm using chromium
[08:01] <somsip> honey21: 'mostly they are the same' is not the same. It's Debian. It's possibly the sysadmin's issue with that server. Nothing to do with ubuntu, and I'm ignoring you as from now
[08:01] <fidel_> xwininfo seems to not see the window - as it reports Desktop if i click it
[08:02] <buddd> god i hate flash
[08:02] <somsip> buddd: if you're suing chromium, read here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Chromium/Getting-Flash
[08:02] <fidel_> nevermind - alt+f2 + r solved it.
[08:02] <somsip> *using
[08:03] <honey21> somsip: sorry  i realy need help iam sysadmin please!
[08:04] <Mrokii> Hello. How can I rename workspaces in Ubuntu 14.04?
[08:04] <rozica> somsip: I did follow that link before and I installed  bcmwl-kernel-source  and my bcm43142 started working. Unfortunatelly I mistakenly installed --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-utopic and my wlan stopped working. I then tried to remove newly kernely by apt-get remove linux-geeric-lts-utopic and I tried to reinstall drivers for wlan by apt-get remove bcmwl-kernel-source && apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source and I get FAT
[08:06] <fritzroy15> hello, i need someone to help me debug this issue i get when trying to install java on my ubuntu 14.04:   tzdata-java : Depends: tzdata (= 2014b-1) but 2014e-0ubuntu0.14.04 is to be installed ... ii googled around but couldnt find anything significant on it :(
[08:06] <rozica> somsip: do you have any ideas how can I resetore my working wlan?
[08:07] <gr33n7007h> Mrokii: right click on the workspace => preferences
[08:07] <somsip> rozica: no
[08:08] <buddd> somsip: these instructions tell me to install the pepper flash player, but when i go to software center, there is no install option, and "more info" takes me to error page
[08:08] <somsip> buddd: the instructions also tel you to enable some repo first. Did you do that?
[08:09] <honey21> somsip:which part can check even the same problem hapen in ubuntu?
[08:09] <buddd> yes, i turned off software restricted by copyright or legal issues, and the system scnalled to learn of new packages
[08:11] <msbuild> one other stupid question without me comparing the kernel source unziped tar with the linux-kernel-headers.. folder what is the purposes of the distinction between the 2 . why split the headers from the sources.. would this be just so user programmers can access the headers in there programs if they don't want to modify the kernel
[08:11] <IPJunkie1> buddd: you want to check, not uncheck, the repos
[08:11] <somsip> buddd:  so what do you see. I haven't used Software Centre for years so not sure hat it should look like. Paste a screenshot maybe
[08:11] <somsip> !paste | buddd
[08:11] <buddd> looks like ipjunkiel got it
[08:12] <msbuild> because if you have the kernel source you should have as a subset the kernel headers sources found in /usr/src/linux-headers-xxxxx
[08:12] <msbuild> in it
[08:13] <uf> Are you trying to compile Linux?
[08:13] <msbuild> so is the header package just for people not wanting the complete sources
[08:13] <rozica> Is anyone familiar with kernels? I apperantly have to remove linux-headers-generic-lts-utopic and I don't know how. I tried with apt-get remove --purge but I still see that kernel listed if I do:  sudo dpkg -l | grep linux-headers | grep ii
[08:13] <rozica> Any ideas how to rollback my kernel?
[08:13] <honey21> somsip:when i try  to >tail /var/log/apache2/error.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/10385223/
[08:14] <rozica> I have a bunch of kernels installed and I don't like that particular because it break my wlan drivers
[08:14] <msbuild> no if i wanted to compile linux i need the linux kernel source... i am just curious on what the linux-headers source folders alone is for
[08:14] <rozica> anyone familiar w ith kernels?

[08:14] <buddd> i installed postgresql through the repos, but how do I find it now
[08:15] <somsip> buddd: it probably runs as a service. do 'ps aux | grep -i postgres'
[08:16] <somsip> buddd: or sudo service  postgresql status, maybe
[08:16] <fritzroy15> buddd: dpkg -l | grep postgres
[08:16] <rozica> I will ask in a other way. How do I select kernel from grub? The problem is I don't see grub because it boots so quickly. Can at least someone help me on this one?
[08:16] <somsip> fritzroy15: Suggestion here to do this "sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata --force" http://is.gd/twzcVR
[08:16] <fritzroy15> buddd then dpkg -L <postgres_package_name>
[08:17] <fritzroy15> budd will show you all the files that are installed on your system
[08:18] <fritzroy15> somsip doesnt work, it's a version issue
[08:18] <somsip> fritzroy15: beg pardon. I read that a bit too quick and thought I saw the same error messges, but no.
[08:19] <fritzroy15> the issue is i need to fix this or re-install ubuntu, but the later is a pain because it's a work station

[09:31] <Edler> need some help in a very small bash script
[09:31] <Edler> http://pastebin.com/ZiAr2CeQ
[09:31] <Edler> my php line is executing
[09:32] <Edler> is NOT EXECUTING
[09:32] <Edler> *
[09:32] <Edler> but the variable assignments are working because if i echo them i see all the values the loops passes by
[09:32] <Edler> any idea why ?
[09:34] <Mouzz> Edler: Try executing the command (php /var/w...) on the cmd line as the users under which the script runs. any output?
[09:36] <Edler> Mouzz: actually here's something that might help
[09:36] <Edler> if i put:
[09:36] <Edler> php /var/www/webstatreports/app/console --env=prod webstats:stats $z -v
[09:36] <Edler> the command executes
[09:36] <Edler> if i put
[09:36] <Edler> php /var/www/webstatreports/app/console --env=prod webstats:stats $z $j -v
[09:37] <Mouzz> Edler: try typing on one line :)
[09:42] <Guest38058> slt
[09:43] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, sorry  got dc
[09:43] <jac0bz1> it's ok
[09:43] <jac0bz1> still confused :)
[09:45] <drag0nius> how do i start sshd with system?
[09:46] <Mouzz> drag0nius: It should be configured to start automatically after installation of "openssh-server:
[09:46] <mysupper> hello
[09:46] <Guest38058> hi
[09:47] <drag0nius> hmm looks like it failed to install or sth
[09:47] <k1l_> drag0nius: install the sshd on ubuntu and it will be started automatically
[09:51] <Mrokii> I wanted to install unity-webapps-service but got this error: "unity-webapps-common : Depends: unity-webapps-service (>= 2.3.8-0ubuntu3) but it is not going to be installed." Can anybdoy help?
[09:53] <umbra_purus> Hey
[09:53] <umbra_purus> How do i install a tar.bz2 file?
[09:53] <umbra_purus> I'm trying to install sublime text 2
[09:53] <k1l_> umbra_purus: read the readme
[09:53] <umbra_purus> which one?
[09:54] <[Gore]> use 7zip
[09:54] <k1l_> on the page where you got that package or inside that package
[09:54] <umbra_purus> I've read this one but it didnt help http://askubuntu.com/questions/25961/how-do-i-install-a-tar-gz-or-tar-bz2-file
[09:54] <ppf> umbra_purus: did you google that?, there's a ppa for that
[09:54] <umbra_purus> what is a ppa?
[09:55] <[Gore]> config > make > make install
[09:55] <k1l_> umbra_purus: you are going to compile that source.
[09:55] <ppf> umbra_purus: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas
[09:56] <k1l_> umbra_purus: that is not an beginners task. so take the time and read what sublime write on their webpage where you got that package from or look inside that package and read the readme
[09:56] <[Gore]> make a deb out if it
[09:56] <jac0bz1> EriC^ in the syslog I see that the bash file is beeing executed
[09:56] <jac0bz1> but i cant see the output
[09:56] <k1l_> [Gore]: and that is where your makeinstall is just bad
[09:57] <jac0bz1> No MTA installed, discarding output. I guess that is because there is not mail
[09:57] <mcphail> umbra_purus: a tar.bz2 file is just an archive file which contains other files (like a .zip file on windows). There could be any files inside that file so there is no standard way to "install" it. There should be some documentation in the .tar.bz2 archive (usually a file marked "readme" or "install" which tells you what to do.
[09:57] <umbra_purus> mcphail: okay thanks
[09:57] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, yeah you need to install postfix and check your mail
[09:58] <jac0bz1> can i just write the output to a file ?
[09:58] <mcphail> jac0bz1: if you pipe the output to a file you don't need an MTA. Again, read man 5 crontab which explains these things well (note you need the "5" in that command to get the right page)
[09:59] <drag0nius> how does ubuntu handle installing nginx when having apache already?
[10:00] <mcphail> drag0nius: you can only have 1 listeining on an individual port but both can coexist happily apart from that
[10:00] <drag0nius> mcphail:  does it try to use both on same port by default?
[10:00] <mcphail> drag0nius: i can't remember but suspect they're both set up for 80 as default
[10:03] <drag0nius> are they both configured to run on install or i've to enable them?
[10:04] <jac0bz1> EriC^ There! I found the error, my bashfile returns "scrot command not found"
[10:05] <mcphail> drag0nius: iirc, they both run on install but it is a long time since i played with nginx. Of course, one will fail if they both try to bind to the same port
[10:05] <mcphail> jac0bz1: set a PATH at the top of your crontab
[10:06] <jac0bz1> I have, PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
[10:06] <drag0nius> yeah, i just don't like the part everything runs on install in ubuntu ;(
[10:08] <mcphail> jac0bz1: and is "scrot" within that path?
[10:08] <jac0bz1> ehm
[10:08] <jac0bz1> well, I dont know where scrot is located
[10:09] <mcphail> jac0bz1: what is the output of "which scrot"?
[10:10] <jac0bz1> returns /usr/bin/scrot
[10:10] <jac0bz1> so the path should be correct?=
[10:10] <mcphail> jac0bz1: yep
[10:12] <mcphail> jac0bz1: can you paste the bash script somewhere?
[10:12] <bumbar_> i'm trying to install codelite but am getting an error (i think it says i have newer dependencies than ones that are needed) https://dpaste.de/Gip7
[10:12] <EriC^^> mcphail, http://pastebin.com/6jbAMfR8
[10:12] <jac0bz1> http://pastebin.com/6jbAMfR8
[10:13] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, try echo $PATH in the crontab, or modify the script to use the full path
[10:13] <EriC^^> give echo $PATH a shot just for the sake of curiosity
[10:14] <jac0bz1> echo $PATH returns /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
[10:14] <EriC^^> odd, what happens when you supply the full path?
[10:14] <jac0bz1> 2 sec
[10:15] <mcphail> jac0bz1: I'd certainly try changing "scrot" to "/usr/bin/scrot" in your script but don't know why it isn't being found automatically
[10:15] <jac0bz1> ok, changing the path I'm able to run the bash in the terminal, waiting for cron to run
[10:17] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, try echo $PATH > /tmp/path in the script itself
[10:17] <EriC^^> when you  get a chance
[10:18]  * mcphail wonders whether $PATH must be exported at the top of the crontab
[10:19] <jac0bz1> echo $PATH > /tmp/path  dont return anything
[10:20] <jac0bz1> and running scrot with /usr/bin/scrot returns giblib error: Can't open X display. It *is* running, yeah?
[10:20] <mcphail> jac0bz1: definite progress!
[10:21] <jac0bz1> but it does what it's suppose, sortof, the file is beeing created and moved, but the filename is blank
[10:22] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, try running it from the logged on user's crontab
[10:22] <mcphail> jac0bz1: what sets the $f variable?
[10:23] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, i just tried DISPLAY=:0 xterm from a root logged in tty and it didn't open either
[10:24] <jac0bz1> God I'm going insane! All I need is the bloody thing to take a screenshot every 5 minutes!
[10:26] <mcphail> jac0bz1: you're most of the way there. All that is left is to smoothe the syntax of the command. At least the command is firing now. I need to get back to work but good luck with the tweaking
[10:29] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, ok, type su <user> -c "sh /var...../script.sh"
[10:29] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, that should work, tried it in the tty
[10:30] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, you'll need to modify where it gets saved though, as it will be run by the user
[10:30] <hassoon_flies> what are you up to? executing a script in sudo mode ?
[10:31] <EriC^^> hassoon_flies, espionage
[10:32] <[Gore]> traitor
[10:32] <StevenTheHorse> Hmmm~
[10:32] <macksting> I've got this hot new AMD video card, but installing the drivers required me to break and uninstall Wine. I'd really like to get Wine going at the same time. Forums seem to indicate to me the Wine folks suggest the incompatibility comes down to Debian/Ubuntu packaging ("Is there a bug report on this? wine should not depend on one specific version of libopencl. It should depend on a virtual package that allows for different OpenCL implemen
[10:32] <StevenTheHorse> Pretty sure it's unacceptable to ban someone from the operator help channel
[10:32] <macksting> That is, without losing my hard-won Catalyst and my running copy of Wasteland 2.
[10:34] <[Gore]> isnt wasteland linux native?
[10:34] <macksting> Yes. Did I phrase that poorly?
[10:34] <macksting> I mean I've GOT Wasteland 2 running, but ONLY because I broke Wine.
[10:34] <[Gore]> so why do you need wine?
[10:34] <macksting> I need Wine for, well, lots of other stuff.
[10:34] <[Gore]> ok
[10:34] <OpenTokix> jac0bz1: I solved your screenshotproblem if you still need the help?
[10:35] <macksting> Wasteland 2 didn't work for me until I installed the proprietary drivers, and the proprietary drivers required some kind of OpenCL thing which the version of Wine from apt-get and aptitude didn't cope with.
[10:36] <OpenTokix> jac0bz1: As the user running xwindows: xwd -display :0 -root -out s.xwd"
[10:36] <macksting> Looked that up online, and the Wine forums blame Debian/Ubuntu, so here I am.
[10:37] <[Gore]> try wine channel
[10:37] <OpenTokix> jac0bz1: in cron for that user: */5 * * * * * /usr/bin/xwd -display :0 -root -out `date +%Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S`.xwd
[10:39] <macksting> Ah. Okay, I'll try. Any point in returning here if they prove vicious?
[10:40] <macksting> 'Cause that forum post doesn't make me optimistic about their response to the query.
[10:46]  * macksting glances at the timestamp. Starting to think that's, "No, no point in coming back."
[10:47] <nabn> hi. not sure what i did, but i can't login to gnome from  my usual account, but can from the other(non-superuser) account. i reinstalled gdm, but it didn't do the trick. any help?
[11:08] <Guest4404> ok
[11:39] <MagePsycho> how to install ssl certificate in server? i have the purchased .pem file
[11:42] <Pricey> MagePsycho: Depends on what application you are using? Apache httpd?
[11:43] <MagePsycho> nginx server
[11:43] <MagePsycho> it’s for ecommerce
[11:43] <MagePsycho> payment of course
[11:45] <Pricey> MagePsycho: If you're handling payments on this then I'm worried for you and your customers.
[11:45] <Pricey> MagePsycho: Regardless, most CA's have their own documentation, e.g. https://www.digicert.com/ssl-certificate-installation-nginx.htm
[11:45] <Pricey> (I found that by googling 'nginx pem')
[11:45] <MagePsycho> CA ?
[11:45] <Pricey> Certificate Authority.
[11:46] <MagePsycho> yes we are using digicert
[11:46] <MagePsycho> but that link doesn’t contain how to install
[11:46] <Pricey> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Nginx also has an example config.
[11:46] <Pricey> MagePsycho: It does? Which bit are you having difficulty with?
[11:46] <MagePsycho> i got the .pem file after purchase
[11:46] <MagePsycho> now what’s the next step
[11:47] <Pricey> MagePsycho: Ok, so step 1 of hte guide says to skip to step 4.
[11:47] <Pricey> MagePsycho: It pretty much boils down to putting the file on your server and adding 4 lines to your nginx configuration. That page shows what's required.
[11:48] <MagePsycho> so it’s just adding the .pem file and adding four lines of code in nginx?
[11:49] <PCatinean> Hey everyone, I'm having some issues using a font in ubuntu, I opened up the trutype font and clicked install, all is well but when I try it in the browser it does not load it
[11:49] <Pricey> MagePsycho: And I guess restarting the server. It's all there in that page.
[11:49] <Pricey> MagePsycho: Again, if you really are handling payment information then I think this is a bad idea and you should hire a professional..
[11:51] <Cardiff> PCatinean: installed from where
[11:52] <MagePsycho> Pricey: I have only .pem file, from where to get the .key file?
[11:53] <Pricey> MagePsycho: To get the pem file you should've previously generated a key & csr, then sent the csr to the CA.
[11:53] <Ben64> i'd have to agree with Pricey, you should hire a professional
[11:54] <MagePsycho> Pricey: what is .crt file then?
[12:01] <Pricey> MagePsycho: I don't want to try and replicate the wealth of documentation & examples out there... but you generate a key (.key) & a certificate signing request (.csr). You send the csr to the CA who reply with one or many certificates. (.pem or .crt)
[12:02] <MagePsycho> Pricey: just the naming convention for .pem u mean
[12:03] <Pricey> MagePsycho: I don't understand the question.
[12:05] <H3ruS> how can i set apt-cache from other shared machina with all the packages installed
[12:05] <H3ruS> machine*
[12:05] <H3ruS> can i put the path on source.list ?
[12:06] <H3ruS> deb file:/machine/folder distro main contrib
[12:06] <k1l_> H3ruS: can you explain the setup and intention a bit more? i dont unterstand the setup
[12:06] <k1l_> H3ruS: are you talking about debian?
[12:06] <H3ruS> k1l_| ok
[12:06] <H3ruS> nope ubuntu
[12:06] <Pricey> nardev: I'd look into apt-mirror.
[12:07] <k1l_> ubuntu doesnt have contrib repos
[12:07] <Pricey> nardev: That or apt-cacher.
[12:07] <H3ruS> k1l_| 10 machines but i want setup the other to one machine like download server
[12:07] <H3ruS> shared de /var/cache/apt/archives
[12:07] <k1l_> yeah, apt-mirror or apt-cacher should do
[12:07] <fidel_> i am using apt-cacher-ng here - nice & easy setup
[12:08] <MagePsycho> Pricey: i mean .pem and .crt are the same file with different extension
[12:09] <Pricey> MagePsycho: Probably not. Read them and see. The pem probably contains both the certificate you've paid for and an "intermediate certificate".
[12:10] <freeroute> so, I've dd'd /dev/sda with zeroes, so can anyone please explain why these /dev/sda?_crypt still exist? http://imgur.com/hqrOasv
[12:10] <MagePsycho> Pricey:
[12:10] <bekks> freeroute: Whats was the exact dd command you used?
[12:11] <MagePsycho> Pricey: How to upgrade SSL3 to TLS 1.3
[12:11] <MagePsycho> some of API has sent us email on upgrade to TLS protocol..
[12:11] <Pricey> MagePsycho: Sounds difficult.
[12:11] <freeroute> bekks: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=100M conv=notrunc
[12:12] <freeroute> according to my logic, this shouldn't be possible at all
[12:12] <bekks> freeroute: And you booted a live cd, for running that command?
[12:13] <freeroute> bekks: I did it inside the 14.04 netinstaller (switched to another tty)
[12:14] <bekks> freeroute: Reboot the netinstaller.
[12:14] <freeroute> oh ok
[12:14] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:15] <freeroute> hi
[12:18] <menace> Hi, i want to use libvirt usermode(hostbased) networks and bridged networks side by side. but i have difficulties to implement the network bridges.. does anyone have an working examples (with vms connected to these different networks)? or could give me a guide/hint?
[12:19] <menace> i suspect somehow, that libvirt atm really can do only one thing or the other, but not both
[12:20] <ikonia> no it can do both
[12:20] <ikonia> I find that defining host networks in the host template configuration and then defining user network with virsh (or another tool) works well
[12:20] <ikonia> but you can do it any way you are comfortable really
[12:21] <menace> ah, okay.
[12:21] <menace> and did you have complications with the network-manager, or did you deactivate it?
[12:22] <freeroute> bekks: all back to normal now, thanks :)
[12:23] <freeroute> still strange that "Detect disks" didn't let it show as normal
[12:23] <oussama> haw can i use gcc
[12:23] <bekks> freeroute: Because it was in use by the netinstaller.
[12:23] <bazhang> !compile | oussama
[12:23] <freeroute> ah ok
[12:24] <freeroute> would you say that 200 MB for a /boot partition is enough?
[12:24] <bekks> freeroute: No.
[12:24] <blackroot> i set mine 256
[12:25] <blackroot> has about 46mb free space
[12:25] <bekks> freeroute: I'm using 512M, for being able to keep up two old kernels, while a third one is being build inside.
[12:25] <freeroute> but a kernel is around ~45MB right?
[12:26] <bekks> freeroute: And the initrd has to be compiled and compressed.
[12:26] <bekks> freeroute: So you need space for doing that.
[12:26] <freeroute> ah I see
[12:26] <oussama> bazhang;ubottu thanks you
[12:27] <bazhang> np
[12:31] <xeon123> what is the name of the program that we can use to filter data from a program. Eg. , pcol top
[12:31] <Pyth> hi, i have a big problem. my ubuntu server is not booting anymore. minimal grub is booting. I have a mdadm raid1 with a /boot parition. can anyone help me boot from that partition with minimal grub?
[12:40] <freeroute> xeon123: grep?
[12:40] <xeon123> freeroute, I have found it. It is percol.
[12:41] <xeon123> I have installed redmine, but I don't know how I start the program. Any help?
[12:41] <freeroute> cool it's like interactive grep
[12:41] <bazhang> !info redmine
[12:46] <zagaza> hi, is it enough to install sendmail in order for my vps to send emails?
[12:46] <xeon123> I installed redmine, but the programs it is not running. How do I run the program?
[12:47] <White_Cat> hi
[12:47] <White_Cat> I am reading through https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Automated_Backup_on_Linux
[12:48] <White_Cat> It mentiones "The idea is to run these in a nightly cron job."
[12:49] <freeroute> does anyone know if migrating .Skype is the only thing required to have the backlog of conversations?
[12:49] <freeroute> ~/.Skype/ to be more precise
[12:50] <gezmobile> i think skype keep the logs on their servers
[12:50] <White_Cat> so I just run crontab -e and add to that file?
[12:50] <White_Cat> 30 2 * * * here is minutes hours weeks months years ?
[12:50] <gezmobile> i've installed a couple of times and always found my logs intact
[12:50] <White_Cat> *30 2 * * * here is minutes hours days weeks months ?
[12:51] <freeroute> White_Cat: http://www.corntab.com/
[12:51] <White_Cat> ty
[12:51] <gezmobile> os reinstalled
[12:51] <freeroute> gezmobile: I did that too but found only the recent convos there
[12:52] <White_Cat> freeroute what would my command look like? 3 individual commands?
[12:52] <gezmobile> well just clicked the clock icon and went back to begining of time and have convs from early 2014
[12:53] <gezmobile> so i pretty sure you dont need to
[12:53] <freeroute> White_Cat: I think it's just one entry in the crontab, but you could also put all of your commands in a script and simply run that script from the crontab.
[12:53] <freeroute> hmm all right, I'll try and check it out
[12:53] <White_Cat> freeroute I think I'd like that
[12:53] <White_Cat> can you provide a sample or documentaiton link? I have never done this so I dont want to mess up
[12:57] <freeroute> well just put your commands in a script, then add the full path to the script in the crontab like so - bash /path/to/script.sh
[12:59] <freeroute> White_Cat: if you want it nightly then it's just '* 2 * * * bash /path/to/script.sh'
[12:59] <freeroute> again, see that link I gave you
[13:04] <White_Cat> freeroute thanks
[13:04] <Aphrodite> this is AWESOME!!
[13:05] <testRav3r> Hello.
[13:06] <White_Cat> I kind of see the syntax of crontab
[13:06] <White_Cat> .sh is just a list of commands?
[13:06] <White_Cat> like /path/to/pg_backup.config ?
[13:06] <bekks> White_Cat: it is a shell script.
[13:07] <White_Cat> I never wrote one so I am googling for documentation
[13:07] <White_Cat> the only thing that i am curious about is how ocnfig would be transfered to other commands
[13:07] <hazzardous> Hi, i would like to use android app in my ubuntu. What emulator should i use?
[13:08] <White_Cat> I understand these things are trivial for you guys but I am still a beginer :(
[13:09] <White_Cat> yeah, its like a .bat file from windws
[13:09] <White_Cat> looks prety trivial indeed
[13:09] <freeroute> White_Cat: a .sh implies a bash script. A bash script can just be a collection of commands yeah.
[13:09] <freeroute> yeah, it's very similar
[13:09] <White_Cat> so how would pg_backup.config transfer to pg_backup.sh ?
[13:10] <White_Cat> or would pg_backup.sh pull the info from the config?
[13:10] <imdea> Hi, I have a linux machine configured with pam-ldap in order to allow users to login using their LDAP credentials. I've also configured pam_mkhomedir in order to their $HOME directories be created when their first login into the server, when this is done some directories structure is copied from /etc/skel. However I'd like to change some permissions to the directories copied, any ideas how could I achieve this?
[13:10] <White_Cat> ah
[13:10] <Ben64> White_Cat: what config
[13:10] <White_Cat> indeed
[13:10] <White_Cat> source $SCRIPTPATH/pg_backup.config
[13:10] <White_Cat> I was overanalysing for no reason
[13:10] <bekks> Why do you need to source that file?
[13:10] <White_Cat> Ben64 I am looking at https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Automated_Backup_on_Linux
[13:10] <freeroute> White_Cat: although (Bash) scripting can be very extensive, see this documentation - http://scripting.kpaste.net/78a19495f
[13:11] <bekks> White_Cat: Looking at your link, you do not need to source that config file manually.
[13:12] <bekks> White_Cat: You have to pass the config file as a parameter to pg_backup.shj
[13:12] <bekks> without the trailing j
[13:12] <White_Cat> ah so pg_backup.sh pg_backup.config
[13:12] <bekks> White_Cat: No.
[13:12] <bekks> White_Cat: Please read the link you posted on how to use pg_backup.sh
[13:13] <aaaa> hi
[13:14] <White_Cat> bekks I imagine $2 is the second parameter
[13:14] <White_Cat> $1 is its directory?
[13:14] <White_Cat> it doesnt appear to be
[13:14] <bekks> White_Cat: No. Please look at the script in the link.
[13:15] <White_Cat> hmm
[13:15] <blackroot> hazzardous: ubuntu archon
[13:15] <White_Cat> my educated guess would be -c then file ?
[13:15] <White_Cat> err no directory

[13:16] <White_Cat> ah
[13:16] <hazzardous> blackroot, thanks i will take a look... do you use it to emulate android with your ubuntu?
[13:16] <blackroot> i never tried it myself
[13:17] <blackroot> but i've heard of it
[13:17] <hazzardous> ok
[13:17] <baum> somehow unetbootin always seems to corrupt my drive - by chance anyone could recommend a good alternative? (all the tool has to do is "burn" iso files on usb drives)
[13:18] <Ben64> how do you determine it is corrupt
[13:18] <cfhowlett> baum, ubuntu startup disk creator.  they do NOT create the same outcome.
[13:19] <baum> Ben64, well, the boot fails each time i used unetbootin - using win32imger (on my win system) with the same iso file worked fine
[13:20] <baum> cfhowlett, what do you mean by they do not create the same outcome?
[13:20] <JuJuBee> I am having trouble with apt.  I tried installing codeblocks a while ago and now I cannot apt-get upgrade due to errors referring to codeblocks.  I tried purging codeblocks but get this ... http://pastebin.com/8Rhcm3Nv
[13:21] <cfhowlett> baum,  they both create bootable ubuntu's but not identical.  specifically, the /pools were different
[13:23] <baum> cfhowlett, uhm alright, thanks
[13:25] <White_Cat> hmm
[13:25] <White_Cat> I am getting a permission denied.
[13:25] <White_Cat> should I go as far as to have a dedicated backup user?
[13:25] <White_Cat> or would that be an overkill?
[13:29] <bekks> White_Cat: "I am getting a permission denied" doesnt tell very much without telling us what you are doing exactly, using which user, etc.
[13:32] <keepthelightonba> hello
[13:33] <keepthelightonba> Has anyone purchased for example a laptop from Newegg i know they use other vendors although I am being specific about Newegg

[14:07] <xeon123> I am using planner to draw my Gantt chart. I have set a project from 2013 to 2016, but when I want to print the chart, it shows from 2013 to 2020. How do I make the planner only print from to 2013 to 2016?
[14:12] <jac0bz1> Back again, had to go out and yell a bit.. Still having problems running my cronjob.
[14:12] <jac0bz1> This is my line: */1 * * * * root DISPLAY=:0 scrot 'screenshot.jpg' -q 75 -d 5 -e 'mv $f /var/www/html/player/temp/screenshot.jpg' > /home/promo/tmp/log.txt 2>&1
[14:12] <jac0bz1> Error i get is: No protocol specified
[14:12] <jac0bz1> giblib error: Can't open X display. It *is* running, yeah?
[14:14] <jac0bz1> this was my guide http://www.tecmint.com/take-screenshots-in-linux-using-scrot/
[14:14] <OpenTokix> jac0bz1: Why not use the  solution I gave you, that works?
[14:15] <jac0bz1> OpenTokix: I tried that, but I got an error on every line, and i was so frustrated at that point I just whent outside
[14:15] <OpenTokix> jac0bz1: ok
[14:15] <Siilwyn> Hi folks, I'm running Ubuntu 14.04, not running any special apps, sometimes when a user logs out it 'nothing happens', pressing shutdown does work. How can I troubleshoot this? Any logs that I can look into?
[14:15] <OpenTokix> jac0bz1: you just copied my script and ran it?
[14:15] <jac0bz1> Perhaps i should try it again?
[14:15] <Siilwyn> *logs out 'nothing happens'
[14:16] <Emmanuel_Chanel> Hello!
[14:16] <OpenTokix> jac0bz1: you should not run random scripts from dudes on the internet without understanding what they do.
[14:16] <Emmanuel_Chanel> I want to customize Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS for installing it to HP ML310e G8 v2.
[14:16] <Emmanuel_Chanel> How can I install PPA manually?
[14:17] <Ben64> !ppa | Emmanuel_Chanel
[14:17] <jac0bz1> OpenTokix: I'm aware of that.. And I do know what it does, I just dont know how to fix the error
[14:18] <OpenTokix> jac0bz1: probably permissions - the user you are sudo:ing to - needs write access to a folder where the screenshots are stored.
[14:21] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, i told you earlier the error is due to trying to take a screenshot from the root user on a different user
[14:22] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, use DISPLAY=:0 su <user> -c "sh blabla/script.sh"
[14:22] <jac0bz1> EriC^^ But the cronjob says to use root, and I'm using the root cronjob
[14:22] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, exactly, on a user's DISPLAY
[14:22] <OpenTokix> use sudo -Eu user
[14:22] <OpenTokix> instead of su
[14:23] <OpenTokix> since, su will mess up your own shell
[14:23] <EriC^^> OpenTokix, he'll need the password for that
[14:23] <OpenTokix> EriC^^: nope
[14:23] <OpenTokix> EriC^^: root never need password to sudo to another user.
[14:23] <jac0bz1> Ok, so in my cronjob, it would be like this: */1 * * * * root DISPLAY=:0 su promo -c "sh /var/www/html/player/bin/lib/screenshot.sh" > /home/promo/tmp/log.txt 2>&1
[14:23] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, run it as the user, type */5 * * * * <user> sh blabla/script.sh
[14:24] <EriC^^> OpenTokix, oh ok
[14:25] <EriC^^> jac0bz1, still though, run it as <user> */5 .... that way the cronjob can't be removed cause it is in /etc/crontab
[14:25] <EriC^^> or just put it in the user's cron if that's not an issue

[14:36] <topdownjimmy> I can't figure out why this grep isn't working; I want to find all lines of output that *don't* start with "User":

[14:36] <geirha> grep -v ^User

[14:39] <geirha> eyeD3 file.mp3 | awk '!/^User/ && /xyz/'

[14:40] <t5un4m1> 'morning
[14:40] <t5un4m1> wondering if
[14:41] <t5un4m1> wondering if anyone could offer any insight: Ubuntu 14.10 restarts instead of shutting down on a laptop
[14:41] <tomodachi> t5un4m1: sounds like a bug to me
[14:41] <tomodachi> google if someone else has similair issues
[14:41] <tomodachi> you could also try acpi=force
[14:41] <tomodachi> on the kernel line in grub
[14:42] <tomodachi> that usually does something
[14:42] <t5un4m1> tomtomodachi: i've spent a couple of hours googling this issue yesterday, and found the suggestion about acpi=force, however it didn't work. Out of the box it behaves properly, but slap all the updates on it, and it misbehaves
[14:45] <XenophonF> hey all, anyone running 14.10 on macs?
[14:45] <t5un4m1> re
[14:46] <XenophonF> i've just done a minimal install, but when ubuntu boots, it crashes after remounting root read-write
[14:46] <Emmanuel_Chanel> !addppa
[14:47] <XenophonF> all i get on screen are two short, pixellated blue bars on the top right of the screen
[14:47] <cfhowlett> !mac | XenophonF
[14:47] <t5un4m1> tomodachi: i'll try it again (acpi=force); does the placement matter i.e. before or after "queit" ?
[14:48] <XenophonF> i've already rtfmed, didn't see anything there that might help
[14:48] <tomodachi> t5un4m1: nope
[14:49] <t5un4m1> tomodachi: will try. did a clean install again, so i'll try that after updates if it acts up
[14:50] <tomodachi> t5un4m1: perhaps trying a newwer kernel could help
[14:50] <tomodachi> the are fairly easy to install
[14:50] <Emmanuel_Chanel> When I want to add officially unsupported drivers to Ubuntu installation media, how can I do?
[14:51] <XenophonF> the mac crashes hard enough that the caps lock led doesn't work
[14:52] <t5un4m1> t5un4m1: like a nightly build? i usually update via command line with dist-upgrade, so it usually gets newer stuff that the gui software update it seems
[14:53] <topdownjimmy> When the output of some command includes formatted text (e.g. bold), how can I grep for that?
[14:53] <joaoc> heyyy guys
[14:54] <joaoc> could anyone guide me on how to make nightly packages to upload to lauchpad?
[14:54] <garethdaine> Anyone know how to force install Varnish 3 instead of 4 on Ubuntu 14.04?

[14:57] <MarvinMicek> Hi
[14:58] <phre4k> what do I do when apt complains the checksum for a backports repo is wrong?
[14:58] <MarvinMicek> Can you guys help me with this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/589341/dual-boot-windows-8-1-ubuntu-14-04
[14:59] <Ujjal> hello
[14:59] <k1l_> phre4k: can you pastebin all the output so people in here can have a look at it?
[14:59] <cfhowlett> phre4k, change to a more updated mirror or wait for mirror maintainers to correct it.
[15:00] <phre4k> how do I change output to english again? LC_ALL=C?
[15:01] <OpenTokix> phre4k: yes, or LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 will cover most
[15:01] <phre4k> apt-get update, pasted: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10390365/
[15:01] <geirha> topdownjimmy: You go find a tool that has output that is actually parsable
[15:02] <topdownjimmy> geirha: haha, thanks. do you know of an id3v2.4 reader? i can't seem to find one.
[15:02] <k1l_> phre4k: i had some issues on the translations on the german mirrors too, yesterday or the day before. just wait for it to get sorted. or change to another mirror or the mainservers if you cant wait
[15:03] <geirha> topdownjimmy: I'm afraid I don't.

[15:04] <balance> hi, im on xubuntu and would like to know if theres a preinstalled tool for opening images from terminal?
[15:05] <geirha> balance: if there is,   xdg-open imagefile.png   should pick it

[15:09] <abaday> Hi, I have a directory with lots of subdirectories. If I have enabled AllowOveride in apache and am using a .htaccess file, will that impact the webserver alot?
[15:11] <balance> and whats the shortcut for getting directly to desktop? Like win+d on windows?
[15:12] <phre4k> balance: I think it's even Win+D or Ctrl+Alt+D. RTFM ;)
[15:12] <balance> phre4k,  thx
[15:12] <EriC^^> ctrl+super+d
[15:13] <EriC^^> balance, hold super for a list of shortcuts

[15:14] <mbeasley> is there a way to set up user-level cron directories, such as $HOME/cron/cron.daily/<script> that would execute automatically similar to those in /etc/cron.daily/... ?
[15:14] <phre4k> balance: Applications → Settings → Keyboard Settings → Shortcuts
[15:14] <balance> phrek4k thx
[15:15] <EriC^^> mbeasley, yeah, use /etc/crontab and make your own dirs
[15:15] <Walex2> mbeasley: 'man 1 contrab'
[15:15] <phre4k> mbeasley: crontab, but not recommended because of security issues. Use /etc/cron.daily. What do you even want to do exactly?
[15:16] <MarvinMicek> I need some help with: http://askubuntu.com/questions/589341/dual-boot-windows-8-1-ubuntu-14-04
[15:16] <EriC^^> MarvinMicek, hp / toshiba laptop?
[15:16] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^: sony vaio
[15:17] <phre4k> should I change user/pw in my LXC containers?
[15:17] <EriC^^> ok, press esc or something and see if you can get a boot options menu
[15:17] <phre4k> why do they even have a default PW?
[15:17] <mbeasley> phre4k: I have multiple webservers running off of a box, and each server is setup within a specifc user environment. I want to have a set of scripts that run via cron for a particular user -- and I know I could do this via /etc/cron..., but I'd prefer to have something more generic that is scoped to just a user's home directory
[15:18] <EriC^^> mbeasley, you could make your own /etc/crontab, copy and edit its contents into the user's cron and make the dirs that will run
[15:18] <phre4k> mbeasley: scripts meaning: PHP?
[15:19] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^, Sony Vaio Laptop
[15:19] <phre4k> mbeasley: you could make a directory which isn't served to the WWW but only accessible via SFTP. In there, put the scripts you want to execute and point the crontab to it.
[15:19] <mbeasley> phre4k: no, generally just some bash scripts to watch for certain processes to start and to then take appropriate action once they have done so
[15:19] <EriC^^> MarvinMicek, try pressing esc
[15:19] <mbeasley> phre4k: that makes sense. i'll explore that root. thanks for the help
[15:19] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^, when?
[15:19] <mbeasley> EriC^^: thanks for the help as well
[15:20] <EriC^^> MarvinMicek, when the pc boots
[15:20] <EriC^^> mbeasley, no problem
[15:20] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^, i gotta restart
[15:20] <EriC^^> MarvinMicek, ok
[15:20] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^, brb
[15:20] <EriC^^> if
[15:20] <EriC^^> wait
[15:20] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^, okay
[15:20] <EriC^^> if it doesn't work, boot a live usb
[15:20] <EriC^^> and come here
[15:20] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^, okay
[15:23] <t5un4m1> anyone have any suggestions to fix 14.10 restarting instead of shutting down besides acpi=force? Didn't work. Using an HP Elitebook laptop. google searches are fairly inconclusive
[15:23] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^, back
[15:24] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^, no luck i am on a live usb
[15:24] <EriC^^> t5un4m1, sudo poweroff restarts it?
[15:24] <t5un4m1> shutdown -h does, and so does powering off via gui
[15:24] <EriC^^> MArvinMicek, np, type sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[15:25] <t5un4m1> EriC^^: tried poweroff aslo, and it just restarts it
[15:27] <t5un4m1> EriC^^: it seems like it's a bug with kernel 3.16.0-30 - as teradichi pointed out earlier, but I was wondering if there may be a workaround that anyone found
[15:28] <EriC^^> t5un4m1, i just thought of something, you could modify the shutdown to touch a file, and when the pc starts you could have grub check if it's there, and rm it then halt from grub, very ugly but it would work
[15:28] <chris92> hey there, short question. my VPS is running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Plesk 12... Is there a way to update to PHP5.5/5.6 and stay on Apache 2.2? Apache 2.4 is not yet supported by Plesk 12
[15:28] <EriC^^> makes me feel like puking, but i think it'd work
[15:28] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^, Could not stat device -l - No such file or directory
[15:29] <alfonso> whois
[15:29] <EriC^^> MArvinMicek, sudo parted -l does that?
[15:29] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^, i believe is gparted ? no?
[15:29] <Vetal> cgfn
[15:30] <k1l_> chris92: best is to ask the hoster company for a solution with that vps setup.
[15:30] <t5un4m1> EriC^^: holy cow lol; i'll say this much: that's pretty creative!
[15:30] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^, oh mistake wait
[15:30] <EriC^^> MArvinMicek, try sudo blkid
[15:30] <chris92> k1l_, well it's not a managed VPS, I have full root access. anyways, I'll try with them regardless
[15:31] <phre4k> is there a Seafile package or do I have to install the binaries from the official page? I don't like bypassing apt
[15:32] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10390764/

[15:34] <cnnx> i want to run a scr as my regular user at boot, where do i put the script?
[15:34] <cnnx> not as root
[15:34] <t5un4m1> EriC^^: k so i'm wondering if I should file a bug report...I just thought of popping my laptop (HP Elitebook 1040) out its docking station, and voila, no more problems; regardless if it's on ac or not
[15:34] <cnnx> run a script
[15:35] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10390802/
[15:35] <EriC^^> cnnx, after you login lightdm?
[15:35] <cnnx> EriC^^: yes
[15:35] <t5un4m1> EriC^^: so something to do with the docking station is causing this problem with -30 kernel
[15:35] <cnnx> EriC^^: im running lubuntu
[15:35] <cnnx> not sure if its lightdm
[15:35] <cnnx> but once x starts yeah
[15:35] <EriC^^> cnnx, you could put it in ~/.profile , and use if $DISPLAY; then <run script>; fi to make sure it runs only if you're in the gui
[15:36] <cnnx> EriC^^: whats the exact command ?
[15:36] <EriC^^> cnnx, it will still run if you open another login shell while in the gui though
[15:36] <EriC^^> so know that
[15:37] <cnnx> EriC^^: its a script that starts vncserver
[15:38] <EriC^^> MArvinMicek, kind of odd there's no win8 entry there

[15:45] <EriC^^> then sudo chroot /mnt
[15:45] <Silex> how do I make apt-get *really* tell me what conflicts?
[15:45] <Silex> apt-cache depends for hundreds of packages is not fun
[15:45] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^,after sudo chroot /mnt?
[15:45] <Silex> (foo is a custom package of ours that depends on xorg)
[15:46] <EriC^^> Silex, apt-cache depends <package> lists some dependencies and conflicts
[15:46] <EriC^^> MArvinMicek, no, before
[15:46] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^, yeah i understand that.after the sudo chroot command?
[15:47] <EriC^^> try efibootmgr -v again

[15:51] <EriC^^> MArvinMicek, ok, give it a shot, if it doesn't work we could switch the efi files to boot ubuntu instead of windows
[15:51] <EriC^^> MArvinMicek, type exit, then restart
[15:51] <MArvinMicek> EriC^^, brb thanks
[15:52] <Silex> EriC^^: yes, and it's pointless as xorg installs perfectly
[15:52] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^, nothing
[15:53] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^, oh i forgot.i should boot to a live usb,right?
[15:53] <MarvinMicek> EriC^^, i boot to a live usb
[15:53] <Silex> EriC^^: what likely happens is *one* of my package depedency wants kdm, then wants to install xorg and stops there
[15:54] <Silex> I want "apt-get install foo" to tell me which package conflicts with which
[15:54] <Silex> "apt-get install xorg; apt-get install foo" works, so it cannot be xorg

[16:01] <artisanIndia> 14.04
[16:02] <artisanIndia> its my dedicated server
[16:02] <WetWired> Can anyone help with this error? mipsel-rawgcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory
[16:03] <k1l_> artisanIndia: see http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/php5-fpm  it depends on php5-common (= 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.6) and not ...1ubuntu4) like your packages list thinks. so i think your mirror is not updated yet.
[16:03] <k1l_> artisanIndia: so either wait or tell the mirror guy to get uptodate, or use another mirror
[16:03] <mbeasley> another cron question: i see a lot of default crontabs that use times other than the top of the hour or the start of the day to execute the scripts in the cron.daily, cron.hourly, etc directories. instead of using `0 0 * * *` i see a lot of `04 20 * * *` or something like that. is there a good reason for that that I might be overlooking?
[16:04] <artisanIndia> you mean reinstallation of the server with different image ?
[16:04] <k1l_> artisanIndia: no
[16:04] <k1l_> not even close
[16:04] <artisanIndia> will running an apt-get upgrade work ?
[16:04] <k1l_> artisanIndia: please pastebin the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[16:05] <artisanIndia> ok hold

[16:09] <qwertz15> Hello, I am using Broadcom 4352 driver for my computer but it is too slow to load things up, the speed changes from time to time, I get 40% slower than what our wifi provides.
[16:10] <emilw> qwertz15: what solution do you expect? quicker speeds? :)
[16:11] <qwertz15> yes, getting very slow speeds
[16:11] <qwertz15> sometimes not loading even
[16:11] <emilw> and ping latency slow too?
[16:11] <qwertz15> yes
[16:11] <qwertz15> sometimes
[16:11] <qwertz15> when I was on windows I get stable speed
[16:11] <emilw> do you have a USB wifi device to test another adapter at the same location (are you sure it's the device and not the environment)
[16:12] <emilw> qwertz15: quickest fix could be to get a good supported USB wifi stick for your linux environment.
[16:12] <qwertz15> I have another ubuntu machine, it is slow too. I have a windows computer which works fast.
[16:13] <qwertz15> hmm ok
[16:13] <emilw> define slow, are you still talking about the wifi speed/latency?
[16:13] <k1l_> artisanIndia: does that sort of sources list have some meaning?
[16:13] <qwertz15> Speed and latency
[16:13] <emilw> are you running the latest version of all drivers/kernel ?
[16:13] <emilw> lastest version of ubuntu too ofcourse
[16:13] <qwertz15> 3.13 for the kernel, latest driver
[16:13] <artisanIndia> I added http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/amd64/php5-fpm/download and seems like it is working
[16:13] <artisanIndia> I am in between the installation will update if it is successful
[16:13] <k1l_> artisanIndia: i mean you are missing trusty-security universe
[16:14] <k1l_> artisanIndia: yes, but this fix will not make the issue go away, just the actual symptome
[16:14] <artisanIndia> then what should I do
[16:15] <k1l_> artisanIndia: add atleast: deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-security universe deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-security universe
[16:15] <qwertz15> Ok I appreciate all your help, I will look for a supported USB wifi. Have a great day! :)
[16:16] <artisanIndia> ok
[16:16] <emilw> qwertz15: i'm sorry but I will not be able to help you further
[16:16] <emilw> good luck!

[16:53] <link0802> Hi. I use ubuntu 14.04. I have nvidia 310m and use x.org x server nouveau display drive. When system load I see splash screen,then black screen for 5-10 seconds, and then desktop load. Can I remove black screen and leave only splash screen when system load?
[16:53] <link0802> *driver
[16:53] <cluelessperson> my server has suddenly just stopped responding on port 80
[16:53] <cluelessperson> I have no idea why
[16:53] <blackflow> cluelessperson: ssh to it and see why?
[16:54] <cluelessperson> blackflow, I am, nothing in logs, seems to be fine, restarting now
[16:54] <blackflow> cluelessperson: was the service running?
[16:54] <cluelessperson> blackflow,  yes
[16:54] <blackflow> cluelessperson: which one? apache? nginx?
[16:56] <cluelessperson> blackflow, yes apache
[16:57] <blackflow> cluelessperson: so, apache was running, but wasn't responding and there's nothing in the logs?
[16:57] <cluelessperson> blackflow, it seems so, pages just will not load
[16:59] <cluelessperson> blackflow,   I was being a retard... nevermind.
[16:59] <WilliamDotSI> i just setup a server with 14.04
[16:59] <WilliamDotSI> with 2 HDDs in SW RAID
[16:59] <cluelessperson> blackflow  Ther server is 10* local private network, I was proxying my browser through my home connection to bypass firewall.
[16:59] <WilliamDotSI> 1000MB RAID for /boot, 1TB RAID for / and 16GB SWAP on each hdd
[16:59] <WilliamDotSI> install went through fine
[16:59] <WilliamDotSI> but it does not boot
[16:59] <WilliamDotSI> i only get a blinking cursor
[16:59] <bekks> WilliamDotSI: Which RAID levels did you use?
[16:59] <WilliamDotSI> no grub prompt
[16:59] <WilliamDotSI> RAID1 bekks
[17:00] <cluelessperson> WilliamDotSI, I HATE that.  I was getting that.
[17:00] <cluelessperson> WilliamDotSI, let me guess, you did a USB install?
[17:00] <WilliamDotSI> yes
[17:00] <bekks> WilliamDotSI: Where did you install grub to?
[17:00] <WilliamDotSI> but grub was correctly installed on /dev/sde and /dev/sdf
[17:00] <cluelessperson> WilliamDotSI, I was able to get it up and running by rescue booting a live cd and reinstalling GRUB, but the moment ubuntu updated grub, it reverted its configuration and failed to boot again
[17:00] <WilliamDotSI> the installer automatically installed on this 2
[17:00] <bekks> WilliamDotSI: And what are sda, sdb, sdc, sdd?
[17:01] <cluelessperson> WilliamDotSI, I had to install via a freaking CD for it to work
[17:01] <WilliamDotSI> empty HDDs
[17:01] <WilliamDotSI> with no partition table
[17:01] <cluelessperson> WilliamDotSI, I think there's an issue with grub being install from a USB flash drive for live cd
[17:01] <bekks> WilliamDotSI: So your system is trying to boot from sda.
[17:01] <cluelessperson> bekks, ^
[17:01] <WilliamDotSI> bekks, no it is not
[17:01] <WilliamDotSI> i already tried to override this via bios
[17:01] <WilliamDotSI> i can select one of the other HDDs there and get a failure when booting
[17:02] <bekks> WilliamDotSI: Which failure?
[17:02] <WilliamDotSI> no bootloader found
[17:02] <WilliamDotSI> if i select one of the 1TB RAID members
[17:02] <WilliamDotSI> it shows me only this blinking prompt
[17:02] <WilliamDotSI> so there is something on them
[17:02] <cluelessperson> WilliamDotSI, Also, when this occurred to me, my HDD had superblock read failures shortly after.
[17:02] <cluelessperson> WilliamDotSI, HDD died.
[17:02] <WilliamDotSI> hm i doult not doubt that the HDD might be broken
[17:02] <WilliamDotSI> gnah all this is too much work
[17:02] <WilliamDotSI> i just use an SSD i have here
[17:02] <WilliamDotSI> and run no RAID
[17:03] <cluelessperson> WilliamDotSI, I suggest a smart test, but seriously, I had to install by CD to get the GRUB thing to work properly.
[17:03] <cluelessperson> I know it's stupid, and you might be able to reconfiure grub properly without the CD, but I didn't want to have to, so I just reinstalled via cd, works fine
[17:05] <link0802> Hi. I use ubuntu 14.04. I have nvidia 310m and use x.org x server nouveau display driver. When system load I see splash screen,then black screen for 5-10 seconds, and then desktop load. Can I remove black screen and leave only splash screen when system load?
[17:06] <cluelessperson> link0802, it's probably the card initializing, so probably not.
[17:06] <cluelessperson> link0802, I believe by default it starts on the integrated graphics, loads drivers for GPU, then switches over.
[17:08] <link0802> cluelessperson: oh..understand..Thank you :)
[17:08] <Chunk2> is there a way to install an apache mod without automatically enabling it in apt-get?
[17:10] <cluelessperson> Chunk2, just install and remove from  /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/   ?
[17:11] <Chunk2> cluelessperson: That's not acceptable.  I am preparing for a config change on a live server.  If apt-get enables the mod and restarts apache like normal, it'll take the site down.  I need to deploy a configuration change in a controlled way.
[17:15] <cluelessperson> Chunk2, multiple modules?  or one? if so, which?
[17:18] <WilliamDotSI> gnah
[17:18] <WilliamDotSI> now i installed on the SSD
[17:18] <WilliamDotSI> same problem
[17:19] <Chunk2> cluelessperson: I'm switching from mod_php to php5-fpm.  I need to get mod_fcgid installed, but on my test server I can't figure out how to make it happen without triggering an apache restart.  The server takes a good minute to be totally operational after a restart.
[17:20] <cluelessperson> Chunk2, my guess is that when you do  sudo apt-get install *something*     that it downloads an install script for that something, and runs that to get everything it needs
[17:20] <cluelessperson> Chunk2, I would assume you could download the install script, modify it yourself to NOT enable it, and NOT restart apache
[17:20] <Chunk2> I see, so it isn't something built into apt-get
[17:20] <cluelessperson> Chunk2, I don't think
[17:20] <cluelessperson> so
[17:20] <somsip> Chunk2: bring up a second server, bring it up to date, swap DNS entries to point to new server, disable old server.
[17:21] <blackflow> does anyone have any idea how to install roundcube on a server with nginx and php5-fpm?  it pulls in apache and of course that breaks.
[17:21] <Chunk2> somsip: I'd do it that exact way, except maybe I'd even do a reverse proxy
[17:21] <Chunk2> As well
[17:22] <Chunk2> But I'm being asked to do a lot with a little, and under constraints that border on superstitious
[17:22] <valleydaddy78> HOW DO I FIX THIS USB                         Unable to detect file system! Possible reasons are:
[17:22] <valleydaddy78> - The file system is damaged
[17:22] <valleydaddy78> - The file system is unknown to GParted
[17:22] <valleydaddy78> - There is no file system available (unformatted)
[17:22] <valleydaddy78> - The device entry /dev/sdb1 is missing
[17:22] <valleydaddy78> Unable to open /dev/sdb read-write (Read-only file system).  /dev/sdb has been opened read-only.
[17:22] <cluelessperson> Chunk2, http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/i386/php5-fpm/download
[17:22] <Chunk2> thank you
[17:22] <cluelessperson> Chunk2, somewhere around there, I believe you can get the script  alter it, run it custom
[17:23] <emilw> remember that guy who had audio problems with ALSA?
[17:23]  * emilw <- that guy
[17:23] <emilw> well he had the wrong cable plugged in for 5 hours while troubleshooting the issue.
[17:23] <emilw> so, problem solved :/
[17:24] <Pici> emilw: yay
[17:24] <cluelessperson> emilw, I just freaked out because I could access my 10.* work application server from chrome
[17:24] <cluelessperson> while using my home proxy to get youtube. ;)
[17:24] <Chunk2> you know it might be easier to just get everything in place manually, then let the install script do the restart for me :)

[17:31] <cluelessperson> can I get opinions/criticisms on this script?

[17:35] <zertyuio> i got a basic question, when i do ls -rtl on my see lots of files and folders, each files and folders taking size, i m expecting a command to show on final the size after adding the file and folder size
[17:35] <balareth> @sexo
[17:35] <llutz> zertyuio: du -sxh path/
[17:44] <zertyuio> yes i kow that du can do that
[17:44] <zertyuio> but i would like to this way
[17:45] <zertyuio> add the sum of everything which is present on a folder
[17:46] <llutz> zertyuio: pipe ls output into awk, summarize size-column, print totals...
[17:47] <k1l> i dont think ls can do that. without you doing more magic. what about ncdu or such?
[17:49] <zertyuio> unfortunately not working : ls -rtl | awk summarize size-column, print totals
[17:49] <llutz> omg
[17:51] <llutz> zertyuio: ls -lrt path/ | awk '{ print; sum += $5 }; END { print "size: ",sum }'

[17:55] <ubuntu> hai
[17:56] <l9> my sound is broken, what needs a reset?
[17:56] <sbl> php5-memcached 2.1.0 is depends to 5.5.9 :< but php5-memcached 2.2.0 has bugs
[17:58] <p01s0n> on my 14.04 server arch shows it as i686 how can i know if its 32 bit or 64 bit
[17:59] <llutz> p01s0n: uname -m
[18:00] <p01s0n> it also shows i686
[18:00] <llutz> p01s0n: to check cpu: grep -o ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo
[18:00] <jhutchins> p01s0n: You have a 32b kernel.
[18:00] <llutz> p01s0n: i686 is 32bit
[18:01] <jhutchins> p01s0n: cat /proc/cpuinfo will tell you about the actual hardware.
[18:02] <p01s0n> i have a 64 bit hardware,but i think its 32 bit OS
[18:02] <jhutchins> p01s0n: You are correct.

[18:11] <TimeVirus> not really impressed with this Lubuntu DE - Miss Xfce
[18:11] <TimeVirus> should have gotten Xubuntu
[18:11] <TimeVirus> i no
[18:13] <k1l> TimeVirus: install xfce4 package or xubuntu-desktop package
[18:15] <TimeVirus> I did that on Mint with Mate and Xfce and a lot of Xfce parts showed up when I'd boot into Mate DE - is that not going to happen if I have the two options with Lubuntu?
[18:15] <TimeVirus> kil^
[18:16] <TimeVirus> hard to predict?
[18:21] <TimeVirus> k1l^^
[18:23] <k1l> what?
[18:23]  * tommylommykins waves... Running sudo apt-get dist-upgrade on my machine has just cause a lot of my SSL certificates to be replaced... Is this expected? Why are they being replaced?
[18:23] <k1l> you can select on the login screen if you want lxde or xfce
[18:23] <TimeVirus> yes
[18:24] <TimeVirus> meh
[18:24] <TimeVirus> I'll give it a try
[18:24] <EriC^^> TimeVirus, some parts might show up, namely the notify-send and other stuff
[18:24] <TimeVirus> ok
[18:24] <EriC^^> TimeVirus, if you purge most of the lubuntu specific stuff you should be ok

[18:35] <ponyofdeath> hi, how do i remove all gcc packages from a system?
[18:35] <fossterer> Hi! I am running Lubuntu 12.04 with 3.2.0-23-generic kernel. Can I install 2.6.33 kernel on it?
[18:36] <daftykins> fossterer: why?
[18:37] <fossterer> Because, I have some patches to be applied that require 2.6 kernel
[18:40] <iuza89> fossterer, maybe there  is  a less traumatic method
[18:40] <daftykins> fossterer: patches for what?
[18:40] <Seveas> ponyofdeath: /win 270
[18:40] <Seveas> err oops
[18:40] <daftykins> fossterer: as iuza89 suggests - perhaps if you gave us the full story we might be able to advise better :)
[18:40] <Seveas> ponyofdeath: echo sudo apt-get remove $(dpkg -l 'gcc*' | awk /ii/'{print $2}')
[18:41] <Seveas> ponyofdeath: if that does the right thing, remove the 'echo' :)
[18:41] <fossterer> I need to enable 802.11p mode communication.. I have readymade patches that are built on 2.6.33-6 kernel
[18:42] <daftykins> ah i see, gonna be car hacking huh?
[18:42] <daftykins> you'd be better off running a supported debian using that kernel i would say.
[18:42] <Seveas> fossterer: that's going to be ... tricky to say the least.
[18:42] <ponyofdeath> Seveas: haha wow wants to remove 561 packages
[18:42] <ponyofdeath> lol
[18:43] <Seveas> ponyofdeath: hmm, that's... odd. Can you pastebin?
[18:44] <fossterer> daftykins: Why Debian?
[18:44] <daftykins> because that kernel version is stock in their stable release
[18:44] <daftykins> or, a very close one at least
[18:44] <ponyofdeath> Seveas: https://bpaste.net/show/f7e86e1a7350
[18:45] <daftykins> fossterer: messing with lubuntu to go back to a kernel that isn't supported - you won't get much help in here.
[18:45] <fossterer> daftykins: "that kernel version"?? Are you referring to any specific Debian release?
[18:45] <daftykins> *sigh*
[18:45] <daftykins> go chat to #debian
[18:45] <Seveas> ponyofdeath: I mean the echo version
[18:46] <ponyofdeath> sudo apt-get remove gcc-4.6-base:amd64 gcc-4.8-base:amd64 gcc-4.9-base:amd64
[18:48] <mysupper_> hello
[18:48] <v_Sully> Afternoon all.
[18:48] <mysupper_> I'm trying to install vsftpd. but I can't find vsftpd.conf in /etc.
[18:49] <mysupper_> I did nothing excecpt sudo apt-get install vsftpd. what's the problem I can't find vsftpd.conf ?
[18:49] <Seveas> ponyofdeath: ah doh. The -base packages are actually fairly critical :)
[18:49] <Seveas> ponyofdeath: on the other hand, that echo show you only have those, so there's nothing to remove :)
[18:50] <ponyofdeath> i removed the other's manually
[18:50] <Seveas> mysupper_: pastebin the output of apt-cache policy vsftpd
[18:50] <v_Sully> I'm having an install issue as well. Trying to install node.js
[18:50] <Seveas> ponyofdeath: then you're done :)
[18:50] <Seveas> v_Sully: sudo apt-get install nodejs
[18:51] <v_Sully> Yeah I have done that and checked version and also installd the Npm but having issue with the npm -g
[18:52] <mysupper_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10394239/
[18:52] <v_Sully> I had tried sudo nmp install npm -g but was told it was not found
[18:53] <slentzen> I have ubuntu installed with LVM and full disk encryption, at boot I see the field to enter the passphrase, but when I type it appears as cleartext in upper left corner and not in the field
[18:53] <slentzen> anyone know of this bug?
[18:54] <daftykins> hit tab? :)
[19:00] <slentzen> daftykins, tried tab, doesn't work. It's the typical thing with if I press arrow keys I see things like [[[^B
[19:01] <daftykins> oh right
[19:01] <root> hi
[19:01] <daftykins> no experience with encryption other than seeing people have hassle with it :) so can't help unfortunately
[19:01] <daftykins> root: you probably don't want to be on IRC as root :)
[19:01] <k1l> !rootirc | root
[19:01] <root> why not
[19:01] <daftykins> because it's unsafe
[19:01] <daftykins> i could make you run something that wipes your system.
[19:01] <daftykins> but i 'm a friendly fellow, so i won't
[19:01] <mysupper_> solved. purge and reinstall vsftpd.
[19:02] <Guest31391> eh, don't really care, im on a linux vps with xrdp and xfce4
[19:02] <Guest31391> and remote desktop connection
[19:02] <k1l> Guest31391: running everything as root is just a bad habbit and will likely lead to you breaking your system
[19:02] <daftykins> ok well, just take it onboard that what you're doing is utterly ridiculous :)
[19:02] <Guest31391> ok thanks
[19:02] <Guest31391> i have one problem though
[19:03] <Guest31391> i can't run wine on ubuntu here
[19:03] <daftykins> i hope you don't SSH in as root.
[19:03] <daftykins> can you be more specific?
[19:03] <daftykins> what are you trying to use wine with?
[19:03] <k1l> running a desktop as root is the even worse. and on ubuntu it will break a lot things
[19:03] <Guest31391> It installs successfully, but nothing after.
[19:03] <Guest31391> It wont work with anything.
[19:04] <Guest31391> i did apt-get install wine
[19:04] <k1l> Guest31391: first: make another user. loginto that user on the desktop, not root
[19:04] <portn> hi guys i did something smart and now i can't boot into my windows partition
[19:04] <daftykins> portn: heh :) and it's an ubuntu issue because... ubuntu still boots? :)
[19:04] <k1l> Guest31391: ubuntu desktop is made to not work with root. so there is a lot of things that might not work.
[19:05] <portn> i did sudo rm -rf --no-preserve root to uninstall ubuntu, but because of gnu boot manager thing i can't boot into widnows anymore, windows is on a separate hdd
[19:05] <portn> !danger
[19:05] <Guest31391> im running ubuntu with 10 gb ssd and 512mb ram
[19:05] <bekks> portn: Thats not "uninstalling Ubuntu" but randomly deleting stuff and harming your system.
[19:05] <portn> fuck...
[19:05] <Guest31391> i'm afraid if i make more users, it'll use up more ram
[19:05] <portn> so what do i do now?
[19:05] <Guest31391> reinstall windows
[19:05] <daftykins> portn: so this sounds like a Windows boot issue only to me.
[19:06] <daftykins> portn: ##windows
[19:06] <portn> well i can't boot into windows
[19:06] <portn> because of gnu
[19:06] <portn> gnu uninstalled
[19:06] <Guest31391> open up a support ticket at microsoft.com
[19:06] <bekks> portn: you did not uninstall anything.
[19:06] <portn> what did i do then?
[19:06] <Guest31391> you deleted the boot sector probably
[19:06] <bekks> portn: you randomly deleted files until Ubuntu doesnt work anymore.
[19:07] <bekks> Guest31391: Nope.
[19:07] <bekks> portn: Reinstall Windows.
[19:07] <Guest31391> not sure what he deleted, he didn't say.
[19:07] <Guest31391> so im just guessing
[19:07] <nikitha> hi, someone help, trying install of oracle 11g on ubuntu 14.04  struck at  	at oracle.install.ivw.db.driver.DBInstaller.startup(DBInstaller.java:114)
[19:07] <nikitha> 	at oracle.install.ivw.db.driver.DBInstaller.main(DBInstaller.java:132) ,                        it wont open installer window .... on press enter it comes out  to command line back...
[19:07] <portn> i ran sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve root on my hd that has ubuntu installed, windows is installed on a separate drive
[19:07] <bekks> nikitha: Installing Oracle 11g on Ubuntu isnt supported.
[19:07] <portn> !danger
[19:08] <nikitha> bekks: i dont have anyother option , what to do
[19:08] <bekks> nikitha: Use a supported linux derivative instead.
[19:08] <daftykins> portn: can you explain your disk setup? Windows was on one physical disk and Ubuntu on another?
[19:09] <Guest31391> root is like administrator on windows right?
[19:09] <nikitha> bekks: using this   linux_11gR2_database_1of2.zip and  xxxxx2of2.zip
[19:09] <k1l> Guest31391: no
[19:09] <Guest31391> then why is it dangerous to run root as a desktop if people run administrator on windows?
[19:09] <bekks> nikitha: It is not supported on Ubuntu. Whatever you are using there :)
[19:09] <portn> daftykins: my hard disk with windows is a 128 gb ssd
[19:09] <portn> i loaded ubuntu into my 1tb hdd
[19:09] <omgitsmit> nikitha: http://blog.whitehorses.nl/2014/03/18/installing-java-oracle-11g-r2-express-edition-and-sql-developer-on-ubuntu-64-bit/
[19:09] <portn> it's on my laptop
[19:09] <daftykins> Guest31391: they are not directly comparable.
[19:09] <omgitsmit> nikitha: i was able to get oracle installed using that article
[19:09] <k1l> Guest31391: even windows says now you dont be logged in as administrator but just give the user admin privileges when needed
[19:09] <sm0ke> hey
[19:10] <k1l> Guest31391: its like having a loaded gun all the time. instead of just load it when needed. its just more dangerous.
[19:10] <Guest92150> can anyone help me gzip certain files in a folder?
[19:10] <bekks> nikitha: I'd rather setup a VM running Oracle Linux and install Oracle RDBMS in a supported environment.
[19:10] <Guest31391> ah alright
[19:10] <Guest92150> for example: ls |  grep rth_nyabos_4286403
[19:10] <Guest92150> I want to gzip evety file from that output
[19:10] <Guest31391> thanks
[19:11] <daftykins> portn: so disconnect the 1TB, then test the Windows boot
[19:11] <portn> i really can't do that
[19:11] <nikitha> omgitsmit: you want me to use oraclexe
[19:11] <daftykins> portn: what are you typing from now? live session?
[19:11] <Guest31391> port, try using a boot program in a usb drive or cd, then boot.
[19:11] <omgitsmit> nikitha: no
[19:11] <Guest31391> and it should ask you what os you'd like to boot in
[19:11] <nikitha> omgitsmit:  express edition of oracle
[19:11] <portn> i'm at a computer lab in my college
[19:11] <omgitsmit> nikitha: i added the custom ppa and installed it with the java installer
[19:11] <portn> i'm going to try to download gparted live and format the drive and hope that works
[19:12] <daftykins> portn: so do you have an ubuntu bootable flash drive with you and the laptop?
[19:12] <portn> that's my first instinct
[19:12] <daftykins> portn: terrible idea
[19:12] <portn> why?
[19:12] <daftykins> waste of time. make up an ubuntu flash drive then we can talk
[19:12] <portn> i lost my ubuntu flash drive :(
[19:12] <daftykins> so do you have one at all?
[19:12] <Guest31391> .
[19:12] <portn> daftykins: it's already 'deleted'
[19:12] <Guest31391> just redownload ubuntu on it
[19:12] <uponatree> Hi guys, just a little networking question: Is there any difference in amount of broadcasts between 150 clients in 192.168.0.0./24 than 150 clients in 192.168.0.0/21. I assume it depends on the number of clients in the network. Am I right?
[19:12] <daftykins> portn: yes but you don't know what i'm thinking :)
[19:12] <nikitha> omgitsmit: u mean to use java part of article and proceed with my installation with oracle 11g , u mean to say that ?
[19:13] <portn> daftykins: i ran the sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root command
[19:13] <daftykins> uponatree: ##networking
[19:13] <uponatree> daftykins: thanks :)
[19:13] <daftykins> portn: yes i saw that 3 times now, but if you want to get help fixing a Windows boot issue in an ubuntu channel, this is how it's going to be done :) so either follow my instruction and make up an ubuntu flash drive or go to ##windows please.
[19:13] <omgitsmit> nikitha: i followed that article to get oracle java installed. what are you trying to do?
[19:14] <portn> daftykins: okay, i am downloading ubuntu... it's going to take 4.5 hours :(
[19:14] <portn> my connection at home is a lot faster
[19:14] <portn> i get 120 mb download speeds...
[19:15] <nikitha> omgitsmit: article is clear says about oracle-xe installation, which is express edition.     oracle 11g enterprise edition  is different from express edition
[19:15] <omgitsmit> nikitha: ah i was unaware of that, was just sharing what worked for me :)
[19:16] <Luigi> msg nickserv identify taffy
[19:16] <omgitsmit> Luigi: tsk tsk
[19:16] <daftykins> portn: better to wait 'til then, then
[19:16] <ms1607> ^^
[19:16] <nikitha> omgitsmit: with express edition, i doubt i could avail all oracle functionality or not, is there someone who could help us with this
[19:16] <omgitsmit> nikitha: since its not supported by #ubuntu, you should check other channels
[19:16] <omgitsmit> !alis | nikitha
[19:17] <portn> this is ridiculous
[19:17] <portn> :)
[19:17] <portn> :*(

[19:17] <supermariobro> Question:  Which is more likely to be compatible with Ubuntu -  AMD Radeon HD 6450 or the nVidia GT 610
[19:17] <qwebirc42776> I may have found an issue with the new point release of Ubuntu 14.04.2.
[19:17] <portn> okay after i get a live usb of ubuntu, what do i do?
[19:18] <omgitsmit> qwebirc42776: bug report?
[19:18] <qwebirc42776> Yes.
[19:18] <jfeff> whenever I open Chrome I get a message box for a password to open "default" keyring. I do not know what this is and none of my passwords work. How to I get it to go away?
[19:18] <daftykins> portn: i want to see some command output so there's not much point talking about that until you get there
[19:19] <omgitsmit> jfeff: google-chrome --password-store=basic so that it won't ask use the gnome keyring
[19:19] <daftykins> portn: is it 8 or 7 on this SSD btw?
[19:19] <jfeff> just put that in the terminal
[19:19] <portn> daftykins: it's windows 8.1
[19:19] <omgitsmit> jfeff: there is a more perm fix here, http://askubuntu.com/questions/25974/how-do-i-change-the-default-password/25999#25999
[19:19] <portn> in the ssd
[19:19] <qwebirc42776>  Currently the "Additional Hardware" or "Additional Drivers" isn't working correctly when the open source drivers don't support the hardware.
[19:20] <daftykins> portn: tried changing the default boot entry to 'Windows Boot Manager' instead of the hard disk then?
[19:20] <daftykins> (in BIOS/EFI)
[19:20] <portn> i tried
[19:20] <omgitsmit> qwebirc42776: doesnt sound like a bug to me, sounds like you dont have supported hardware.
[19:20] <daftykins> portn: and?
[19:21] <portn> nothing :(
[19:21] <daftykins> portn: a lot more than nothing happens when a system boots :)
[19:21] <daftykins> details please
[19:22] <jfeff> thanks
[19:22] <portn> pxe exiting rom
[19:22] <omgitsmit> portn: daftykins: whenever i bork an installation (i do it quite often) i use this to fix my boot "things" because i honestly have no idea how it all works - http://sourceforge.net/projects/boot-repair-cd/
[19:22] <daftykins> omgitsmit: that's built into ubuntu and isn't relevant here
[19:22] <omgitsmit> whoa really?
[19:22] <omgitsmit> where would i find that in ubuntu?
[19:22] <daftykins> correctamundo
[19:22] <daftykins> !info boot-repair
[19:23] <daftykins> err, something like that
[19:23] <daftykins> !bootrepair
[19:23] <omgitsmit> but thats after the fact
[19:23] <omgitsmit> when i dont have a system that boots, how do i install a package :/
[19:23] <daftykins> this is from a live session though
[19:23] <daftykins> lol.
[19:23] <omgitsmit> ah you didnt mention live cd
[19:23] <daftykins> no, didn't think it necessary
[19:24] <daftykins> portn: definitely seems like a very happy Windows install then - i don't think this issue can continue in this channel because it's not really ubuntu related.
[19:24] <daftykins> *unhappy
[19:24] <omgitsmit> daftykins: does the boot-repair package also handle windows boot problems?
[19:24] <daftykins> no
[19:24] <daftykins> well, i don't know actually
[19:24] <daftykins> unlikely
[19:24] <omgitsmit> daftykins: hm, the boot-reapir-cd says it does, i wonder what they're using that ubuntu boot-repair package isnt.
[19:24] <portn> daftykins: you know the boot menu that shows up each time after installing ubuntu?
[19:24] <portn> thanks for the link omgitsmit
[19:24] <qwebirc42776> Proprietary drivers for NVIDIA Geforce GTX 750 Ti are okay at version 331.x (included with mythbuntu disk).
[19:25] <daftykins> but it can tell you the status of Windows bootloadering etc. to tell you what's up
[19:25] <qwebirc42776> It would be better if the select could display a message by the open source (or proprietary) driver option (when hardware incompatible) with a reason. But still list other options with the incompatible ones (possibly proprietary drivers or open source).
[19:25] <daftykins> omgitsmit: i doubt it's different, depends what kind of issue there is i guess
[19:26] <omgitsmit> daftykins: yeah man, thanks for mentioning that. i never knew there was a pack for it.
[19:26] <omgitsmit> i use the cd more often than i'd like to admit ;)
[19:26] <daftykins> qwebirc42776: i can't tell what you're suggesting. but this isn't really the place for 'suggestions' because nobody that's a developer is going to see them
[19:26] <daftykins> portn: GRUB?
[19:26] <daftykins> the white text on black background
[19:29] <qwebirc42776> Is it possible for a message to be displayed for the incompatible hardware on "Additional Hardware" stating when the open source (or proprietary) drivers are incompatible?
[19:29] <daftykins> qwebirc42776: nope
[19:29] <fattaneh> hi all, what does second column in "ls -l command" its a number. is it the number of hardlinks or number of files in a directory?
[19:29] <daftykins> but those newer card issues will go away soon enough once a newer ubuntu comes out
[19:29] <qwebirc42776> Could it be added to an update?
[19:29] <daftykins> why are you asking?
[19:30] <daftykins> just deal with the problem and all is well *shrug*
[19:31] <qwebirc42776> The reason being the Geforce GTX 750 Ti is more powerful and efficient the several of the earlier cards. It is also much less expensive in the UK than the Geforce GTX and GT 900 series graphics cards.
[19:33] <daftykins> qwebirc42776: that has nothing to do with why you think that 'feature' should be in Ubuntu
[19:33] <daftykins> the Linux kernel up until 3.18 has issues with Maxwell cards right now, so nouveau does not work with the 750 Ti, simple. not gonna change until 15.04 is out
[19:35] <qwebirc42776> Also if the proprietary drivers support the newer hardware and open source doesn't. There should still be the option to switch to the proprietary drivers, for new users having switched from windows. Needing to manually go through the rigmarole of installing each of the drivers packages on proprietary drivers, could prove off putting.
[19:35] <daftykins> qwebirc42776: the relevant people know of this issue, you're not telling us anything new :)
[19:36] <bekks> And the opensource drivers are installed by default. :)
[19:36] <daftykins> i think the alleged point is the fact nouveau doesn't work on the Maxwell cards
[19:36] <daftykins> but yeah, not going to change that by talking to anyone here
[19:39] <qwebirc42776> All it would need to do is say for an unsupported card on a incompatible driver is: "Sorry, but current hardware isn't supported by this driver.". The driver option would be disabled but visible and other options when compatible would be visible also but in addition selectable.
[19:39] <fattaneh>  hi all, what does second column in "ls -l command" its a number. is it the number of hardlinks or number of files in a directory?
[19:40] <daftykins> qwebirc42776: so file a bug and suggest that, this isn't the place to do it :)
[19:40] <qwebirc42776> Which instance of the bug tracker would be needed?
[19:40] <j_t> FOr ubuntu trusty, where ist he first boot script. eg, if I want to execute something on the first time the box boots.. where can I do them. when making an image in packer say.
[19:41] <bekks> fattaneh: Did you take a look here?: "info coreutils 'ls invocation'" ?
[19:41] <fattaneh> bekks: yes but that didn't help
[19:42] <daftykins> qwebirc42776: there's only one...
[19:42] <bekks> fattaneh: Well, your question is fully answered there.
[19:43] <fattaneh> bekks: sorry, i could't find it
[19:43] <bekks> fattaneh: Take a look at the section where "-l" is described
[19:44] <qwebirc42776> Which package handles the display for "Additional Hardware"?
[19:44] <fattaneh> bekks: thanks :)
[19:44] <daftykins> ubuntu-drivers or something
[19:44] <daftykins> qwebirc42776: but your point is useless, because you can't boot ubuntu on Maxwell cards without specifying nomodeset
[19:44] <daftykins> or at least, some don't boot - just stay blank
[19:53] <Robert_Labrie> I'm getting an app complaining SSH_AUTH_SOCK not set even though ssh-agent is running. Does ssh-agent set this env var?
[19:53] <j_t> Is there some way to have something execute on the first first boot of an ubuntu VM? then never again
[19:53] <j_t> so on a second boot, it won't execute
[19:54] <Robert_Labrie> j_t just put in your script to check if a file exists (/etc/foo or whatever) then in your script touch that file
[19:54] <Robert_Labrie> you're doing a run once for newly cloned VMs right?
[19:54] <j_t> Robert_Labrie: yes
[19:54] <j_t> ok, that's a good idea
[19:55] <j_t> I'll do that.
[19:55] <Robert_Labrie> cool, good luck

[20:12] <piglit> when will the new flash sale be ?
[20:12] <piglit> of the ubuntu phone ?
[20:12] <piglit> http://www.bq.com/gb/ubuntu.html ???
[20:12] <daftykins> not relevant here
[20:13] <piglit> where can i ask ?
[20:13] <bynarie> flash phone?
[20:13] <daftykins> !touch
[20:13] <daftykins> you can try there
[20:13] <OerHeks> try #ubuntu-touch for phone issues, follow bq on twitter i guess
 flash sale is a stupid way to make ppl hysterical so they buy stuff
[20:14] <piglit> start looking every day at the site
[20:14] <piglit> but i havent got the time for that
[20:14] <daftykins> that's nice but nothing to do with this channel so please take it elsewhere, piglit
[20:14] <bynarie> piglit, oh ok.. i had no idea
[20:15] <Faylite> I have a bunch of folders with source code and compiled executables, is there a command/script I can use to recursively delete all the executables before I cp over to a windows shared folder?
[20:17] <piglit> thank you <daftykins> I will take a look at #ubuntu-touch
[20:17] <bynarie> Faylite, make clean dont work?
[20:24] <Faylite> bynarie, It's a bunch of one-file projects, I would rather not write makefiles.
[20:26] <bynarie> oh ok.. i thought it might be a gnu makefile project, in that case typically make clean will do the trick.. must be something totally different

[20:45] <arya1> I would like to know the differene between /bin and /usr/bin directory.
[20:46] <hellhound> I have a desktop using Ubuntu 14.04 and have been having issues getting suspend to work. If I reboot the machine suspend will work fine the first time, but after that the computer will only lock the screen but not power the monitor or hard drives down. The screen will flash off and than back on every few minutes though. Can anyone give me any suggestions?
[20:48] <OerHeks> arya1, /bin : For binaries usable before the /usr partition is mounted, /usr/bin : Same as first, but for general system-wide binaries.
[20:50] <Jordan_U> arya1: It's more of a historical artifact now than a practical difference, as can be demonstrated by the current move to mege the two (along with everything else in /usr/) http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/TheCaseForTheUsrMerge/ .

[20:55] <bekks> KhaledSalem: So you are using a P420i with three disks (which RAID level?) and you want to expand the arrays logical volume by two disks?
[20:55] <KhaledSalem> bekks: Raid 5
[20:55] <KhaledSalem> bekks: yes I'll add 2 more disks
[20:57] <darthweezer> could help me with a problem
[20:57] <Jordan_U> andy__: Try #ubuntu for questions not directly related to Ubuntu support.
[20:57] <Jordan_U> andy__: *#ubuntu-offtopic :)
[20:57] <KhaledSalem> bekks: as far as I searched I'll add the physical disks and use hp utility called  hpacucli to add the disks to the array "hpacucli> ctrl slot=0 ld 4 add drives=2:3" , this will expand the logical volume automatically ?
[20:58] <darthweezer> When I try to switch my user account so that I have to use passwd to login it just says login and asks for key passwd
[20:58] <andy__> Jordan_U, I've been looking for that chatroom or channel.  I could not find it before.
[20:59] <Jordan_U> darthweezer: "passwd" is a command for changing your password, not for logging in. What are you trying to accomplish, what commands are you using to do so, and what is their exact output?
[20:59] <bekks> KhaledSalem: no, the volume will not be expanded automagically. See this post pleasE: http://dmatwork.blogspot.de/2013/04/extending-hp-smartarray-raid-array-and.html
[21:00] <darthweezer> I tried going into user settings and setting a password and it lets me do it but when i log out and go to the login screen it just says login and does not ask for my password. I am using ubuntu 14.04
[21:00] <Guest52633> Hola buenas a todos
[21:01] <darthweezer> Does that make sense?
[21:01] <Guest52633> hi there
[21:02] <Guest52633> anyone ??
[21:02] <darthweezer> I tried the terminal and setting passwd that way and it works but still when i am at the login screen it just says login and no password
[21:03] <Jordan_U> darthweezer: Does the login screen list the user in question? When you click that user what happens? Can you take a picture of what you're seeing with a phone/camera and post it?
[21:03] <k1l> darthweezer: what ubuntu is that exactly? what *dm?
[21:03] <darthweezer> Yes I can do that. It does list user which is me. Personal computer and account. I will take a picture of it and be back

[21:05] <O_OniGiri> Hi there, I am looking for a PDF reader, since evince isn't showing my existing bookmarks. Please help me out.
[21:06] <mhenrixon> Sorry dudes and dudettes
[21:07] <mhenrixon> Hopefully won't rename myself again
[21:07] <Tyro> anyone knows how to handle and manages GVFS in ubuntu?
[21:07] <KhaledSalem> bekks: thanks (y)
[21:08] <k1l> O_OniGiri: adobe, evince, okular, mupdf, qpdfview and zathura can handle bookmarks
[21:09] <O_OniGiri> k1l: adobe isn't supporting linux anymore, you can install it though
[21:09] <O_OniGiri> k1l: okular requires a lot additional packages from KDE?
[21:09] <hellhound> I have a desktop using Ubuntu 14.04 and have been having issues getting suspend to work. If I reboot the machine suspend will work fine the first time, but after that the computer will only lock the screen but not power the monitor or hard drives down. The screen will flash off and than back on every few minutes though. Can anyone give me any suggestions?
[21:09] <O_OniGiri> k1l: evince, isn't showing my existing bookmarks
[21:09] <O_OniGiri> k1l:  I will have a look at the remaining options
[21:10] <Tyro> hey
[21:10] <darthweezer> How do I upload them here or do I have to go somewhere else?
[21:11] <k1l> O_OniGiri: are you sure its not the other pdf viewer that make different stuff with that bookmarks?
[21:11] <link0802> https://askubuntu.com/questions/589403/my-unity-launcher-has-changed-has-yours I have same problem in fresh ubuntu 14.04. Any help plz? :)
[21:11] <k1l> !paste | darthweezer
[21:11] <vj> Does anyone know how to list only files and folders that contain specific characters?  $ls *v* and variations are what I've tried to no effect
[21:11] <O_OniGiri> k1l: it is possible
[21:12] <darthweezer> Okay thank you
[21:12] <Jordan_U> vj: "ls *v*", or even "echo *v*" should list all of the files in the current directory that contain the letter v. Please pastebin your file list, the exact command you're running, and its complete output.
[21:13] <k1l> vj: ls | grep ?
[21:13] <Jordan_U> vj: Note, if you're trying to write a script, *never* use ls. ls is for human use only.
[21:14] <vj> I'm not trying to write a script at the moment
[21:14] <vj> and I don't know what pastebin is

[21:16] <web> hello guys, I am having a dilema, I am running windows 8 and ubuntu in dual boot/uefi mode. previously I had ubuntu in virtual box that I had as a dual boot, basically I used real partition as a virtual partition, since I have gone uefi, I have problem with it. any ideas if i should give up because I couldnt find solution for a long time alread
[21:16] <darthweezer> That is the login screen and I have two others that show I have a password set up and the keyring password it asks for when I reach desktop
[21:18] <k1l> darthweezer: well, emperor weezer is the username?
[21:18] <vj> web: I had the same problem after buying a del xps8500.  I ended up with Ubuntu as the main operating system and made a windows 8.1 virtual machine which works fine, but I had to buy Windows
[21:18] <darthweezer> Yes correct
[21:19] <web> vj sounds painful :P ubuntu as main OS, if all the features worked on laptop :\ I wish
[21:19] <TJ-> web: If you're using kvm/libvirt as the hypervisor, you can use the UEFI firmware boot option
[21:19] <web> TJ- I dont know what those are :s
[21:20] <web> I am using virtual box
[21:20] <k1l> darthweezer: what does "groups" list?
[21:21] <link0802> https://askubuntu.com/questions/589403/my-unity-launcher-has-changed-has-yours I have same problem in fresh ubuntu 14.04. Any help plz? :)
[21:21] <k1l> darthweezer: support please only here. type "groups" into the terminal and show the output here please
[21:22] <k1l> darthweezer: while logged in with the user where no password is shown on lightdm
[21:22] <darthweezer> Okay
[21:22] <darthweezer> darthweezer@sithempire:~$ groups
[21:22] <darthweezer> darthweezer adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin nopasswdlogin sambashare
[21:23] <TJ-> web: If VirtualBox supports UEFI firmware booting you should be able to do it
[21:23] <k1l> there we go. the "nopasswdlogin" group is the issue
[21:23] <web> TJ-: which one do you recommend, KVM or libvert ?
[21:24] <darthweezer> How do I change that?
[21:24] <k1l> darthweezer: either use the user and groups gui to remove the group or use "sudo gpasswd -d $USER nopasswdlogin "
[21:24] <Faylite> Finally found the command I was looking for, "find ./ ! -iname "*.*" -type f -print -delete" :D
[21:25] <Faylite> Or rather close enough XD
[21:25] <TJ-> web: kvm is the Kernel Virtual Machine, it can be managed via the QEMU/KVM packages, or by the higher-level libvirt which has a command-line and GUI management option, virt-manager.
[21:25] <darthweezer> And that should fix the problem?
[21:26] <web> TJ- I am super noob in this field, I dont understand any of that terminology I have used virtual box and have heard of Vmware thats it heh
[21:26] <hellhound> I have a desktop using Ubuntu 14.04 and have been having issues getting suspend to work. If I reboot the machine suspend will work fine the first time, but after that the computer will only lock the screen but not power the monitor or hard drives down. The screen will flash off and than back on every few minutes though. Can anyone give me any suggestions?
[21:27] <TJ-> web: If you're already using VirtualBox your first research should be into whether/how it supports UEFI booting of guests
[21:27] <ph88> can anyone tell me why i need root resizing?  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RaspberryPi#Usage
[21:28] <web> TJ- I actually just did it, I ticked the box for EFI option, it started booting but it went to the UEFI shell, now what -.- :(
[21:28] <k1l> darthweezer: yes.
[21:28] <k1l> darthweezer: for every user then
[21:28] <darthweezer> Thank you very much for the help :)
[21:28] <web> I really need to run dual boot ubuntu in VM ;\
[21:29] <daftykins> web: #ubuntu-arm if you get no replies here
[21:29] <Jordan_U> web: Are you trying to run Windows as a VM under Ubuntu, Ubuntu as a VM under Windows, or both?
[21:30] <web> Jordan_U: ubuntu virtually on windows while using real partition
[21:30] <Jordan_U> daftykins: When was arm mentioned?
[21:30] <Faylite> web: Wouldn't it be easier to just format the drive and put a dynamic virtual drive on it?
[21:30] <TJ-> web: You'd need to find out how to add a permanent UEFI Boot Menu option that VirtualBox will save
[21:31] <daftykins> oh yeah, wrong user
[21:31] <daftykins> ignore me
[21:31] <web> Faylite: meaning? what would I put on it?
[21:31] <ALFA> salve
[21:31] <Faylite> An virtual drive created in VirtualBox
[21:31] <ALFA>  sono federica
[21:31] <ALFA>  ho 14 anni
[21:31] <ALFA>  mora e pelosa
[21:31] <web> TJ- you mean I could manually type in things in shell and it would boot? and the problem is how to automate it every time ?
[21:32] <Guest18434> chi mi vuole?
[21:32] <Jordan_U> web: Try downloading Super GRUB2 Disk and making that the boot device in your VM, it should be able to boot Ubuntu. If that works, we can make a more convenient / permanent solution.
[21:32] <Guest18434>  coda di cavallo
[21:32] <backbox> nessuno
[21:32] <OerHeks> !it
[21:32] <web> Faylite: the problem is that I wouldnt be able to use it on dual boot then, I would be stuck only with VM
[21:32] <backbox> ok
[21:32] <Jordan_U> web: Go with the latest SG2D beta.
[21:32] <thunkee> web: only for info https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qye1QxLHS20
[21:32] <Faylite> So you use both dual-boot and vm with the same partition?
[21:33] <Guest18434> rispondete
[21:33] <Kiwiuser> mornig fellows, could someone tell me how high the pid count on a fresh system is? just booted and top has a pid of 5600 which seems a little bit high.
[21:33] <web> ok thank you guys, Jordan_U will take a look at grub2 as well x)
[21:38] <TJ-> web: Correct; the UEFI shell allows you to start any other UEFI boot loader or file, including that installed by grub-efi
[21:38] <cabel> Does anyone use the pam_mysql module or know if it is still supported?
[21:38] <Jordan_U> web: Note that you're using GRUB2 either way, Super GRUB2 Disk is a boot disk with grub2 and useful grub scripts for finding and booting existing OSs at boot time.
[21:38] <doomlord_1> if you have an i7 with integrated graphics, and a discrete graphics card, can ubuntu's desktop environments use both
[21:39] <web> I found a suggestion to rename grubx64.efi to bootx64.efi, will that kill everything or does it have a chance to work?
[21:39] <Jordan_U> Kiwiuser: Not a direct answer, but bootchart can give you a good idea of what processes are being run at boot.
[21:39] <web> and I have no syntax idea of efi shell, it looks like hell
[21:40] <Kiwiuser> thx Jordan_U ill note that
[21:40] <Jordan_U> web: Since you have Windows installed, you already have a BOOTX64.efi in your EFI System Partition, which contains Windows' bootloader.
[21:42] <leeyaa> hello
[21:42] <web> Jordan_U: but I am supposed to use ubuntu/grub bootloader which probably is called grubx64.efi, i am never using windows bootloader
[21:42] <jaequery> hi, i have two ubuntu servers, one with faster hardware and other with very old hardware., same network.   but for some reason, some operations are faster on the older hardware,  like all the apt-get* commands for one. even ssh login takes longer on the new hardware. any ideas?
[21:42] <leeyaa> is it possible to add a random 1 minute delay for daly cron job
[21:42] <leeyaa> cron jobs*
[21:42] <geom_> doomlord_1:  You should be able to, it is called hybrid graphics.  search on that   Perhaps this will help?
[21:42] <geom_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HybridGraphics
[21:43] <doomlord_1> thanks
[21:43] <Guest41428> Anyone know where i can get a list of commands that work with grub rescue?
[21:43] <doomlord_1> i seem to remember people telling me things like 'it only works if both are the same chipset' etc
[21:43] <doomlord_1> but that was ages ago
[21:43] <daftykins> jaequery: probably DNS configuration
[21:43] <doomlord_1> compulsory integrated graphics in intel looks a lot less dumb if i can use both
[21:44] <doomlord_1> i do have a tonne of monitors :)
[21:44] <daftykins> doomlord_1: hybrid doesn't mean they work together :)
[21:44] <daftykins> they won't both work to run a game, for instance
[21:45] <lyze> xfce4 is there a way to force minimize all apps to show the desktop?
[21:46] <lyze> perhapse per keypress
[21:46] <TJ-> Guest41428: see https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Commands.html

[21:48] <thunkee> lyze: http://askubuntu.com/questions/325765/what-is-the-terminal-command-to-show-desktop
[21:48] <lyze> thunkee, does this force show the desktop?
[21:49] <thunkee> lyze: keys for desktop commands ctrl alt d should do
[21:49] <freeroute> leeyaa: this might help - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9049460/cron-jobs-and-random-times-within-giving-hours
[21:51] <web> TJ-: you are my hero! Supergrub helped, I chose ubuntu and it worked, I am in! but is there a way to make it choose automatically?
[21:54] <SamsaraSoup> I've got both    vmlinuz-3.16.30-generic and vmlinuz-3.16.31-generic in my /boot       is that normal
[21:54] <SamsaraSoup> and I have the option to boot either
[21:55] <leeyaa> freeroute: hm so sleep before the "cd" here should work? 17  *    * * *   root    cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
[21:57] <freeroute> I'm guessing so yeah
[21:58] <leeyaa> freeroute: thanks ill have a go testing it tomorrow
[22:00] <rasdf> hi guys a friend of mine had a login freeze-> he inserted the user:pwd and then just freeze. I told him to useradd a new user and it worked, now he can login via gui with the new user. He tried to mv .Xauthority but didn't help. Any clue on what to do next? thx
[22:02] <Mchammerdad> has anyone ever seen a server load of 78 on one of their servers, but still not use 100% of their cpu?
[22:03] <jonne> load isn't just cpu
[22:03] <jonne> usually i get high loads because of swapping / high i/o
[22:03] <rasdf> he also sent me a xorg log: http://piratepad.net/K1u13kSLYJ
[22:03] <jonne> 78 is a lot, though
[22:03] <rasdf> maybe the problem is in the video card drivers?
[22:04] <Mchammerdad> I've never seen 78 on this computer, although it does constantly run at 6-8 on its quad core.
[22:04] <Mchammerdad> I don't know what else it could have been.
[22:06] <daftykins> Mchammerdad: perhaps it was IO waiting
[22:06] <jhutchins> Mchammerdad: How are you measuring "load"?
[22:07] <intrader> Is there a channel to discuss security issues in ubuntu, or should I use this channel? Specifically Superfish?
[22:07] <k1l> intrader: ask here.
[22:07] <Jordan_U> intrader: This channel is fine for discussing concrete security issues, though I don't see how Superfish relates to Ubuntu.
[22:07] <Mchammerdad> well the load I was looking at was in the top command
[22:07] <JTechno> I have autologin to xfce from bash and I will like to execute something just after X server starts but before xfce does, is there any way I can do that?
[22:08] <Mchammerdad> I didnt' know it measured anything besides the CPU load.
[22:09] <kassper> I got a HFS drive, which didnt mount on a Mac. I could read it in Windows with HFSExplorer, but painfully! slow. Now with Ubuntu I tried mounting, but no luck so far. Any help?
[22:10] <jhutchins> kassper: Do you have hfsutils installed?
[22:11] <thunkee> JTechno: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xprofile
[22:11] <kassper> thunkee: I tried hfsplus, should I get hfsutils?
[22:11] <jhutchins> kassper: If it's hfsplus you might want hfsprogs.
[22:11] <JTechno> thunkee: just what I was looking for, thank you
[22:12] <kassper> Yeah I did apt-get hfsprogs
[22:12] <kassper> Oh, and I meant you jhutchins
[22:12] <kassper> I am not sure what it was, I cannot remember. Any way to see?
[22:13] <vj> quit
[22:15] <kassper> jhutchins: here is my fdisk -l http://i.imgur.com/Y87ICfP.png
[22:16] <daftykins> kassper: did you disable the journal?
[22:16] <kassper> daftykins: don't know. I'm running live USB
[22:16] <jhutchins> kassper: fhs and hfsplus have the same ID.  I think blkid will tell you something.
[22:16] <daftykins> kassper: you typically have to disable journalling on HFS to be able to use it with other OSs, is the thing
[22:20] <_DB> anyone here familiar with r-studio?
[22:20] <daftykins> yes but only from running it on Windows 0o
[22:20] <_DB> yeah im on windows myself right now
[22:21] <kassper> jhutchins: using sudo blkid /dev/sdc just gives a blank line in terminal. Nothing happening so far
[22:21] <_DB> im wondering If I save scan information will it not have to scan it next time?
[22:21] <daftykins> _DB: then why are you asking here in an ubuntu channel?
[22:21] <Jordan_U> kassper: Please pastebin the output of "sudo blkid".
[22:21] <kassper> daftykins: Is it safe to disable journaling? The data is important..
[22:21] <jhutchins> kassper: Try just sudo blkid
[22:21] <_DB> because I dual boot linux and windows so im always connected to this channel
[22:22] <daftykins> _DB: alright but your query isn't of ubuntu support, that program is pay for so i'd suggest giving them a shout
[22:22] <NymeriaFr> Hi guys
[22:22] <kassper> Jordan_U: jhutchins: also still thinking. Should it take long?
[22:22] <_DB> k
[22:22] <NymeriaFr> Is someone know cassandra or mongodb ?
[22:23] <bekks> NymeriaFr: What if?
[22:24] <NymeriaFr> I'm just wondering if  mongodb or cassandra is a good way for create a decentralized database
[22:24] <NymeriaFr> or if I am totaly wrong
[22:25] <kassper> jhutchins: there we go! http://i.imgur.com/CSTsNBi.png
[22:25] <daftykins> ah a WD My Passport
[22:25] <kassper> Yes..
[22:25] <kassper> I think they are pretty good
[22:26] <Jordan_U> kassper: No, it should be almost instant. Please pastebin the output of "dmesg".
[22:26] <kassper> Jordan_U: could it be because of live USB?
[22:26] <Jordan_U> kassper: No.
[22:27] <kassper> Ehm, too much data, so it fills up all terminal
[22:27] <kassper> Jordan_U: But I can pastebin only the WD drive lines?
[22:28] <daftykins> just throw a bunch of it into a pastebin
[22:28] <Jordan_U> kassper: Yes, or just run "sudo blkid | pastebinit" to pastebin the entire output easily.
[22:30] <kassper> Jordan_U: here http://pastebin.com/TDzes0UM
[22:30] <rasdf> hi guys a friend of mine had a login freeze-> he inserted the user:pwd and then just freeze. I told him to useradd a new user and it worked, now he can login via gui with the new user. He tried to mv .Xauthority but didn't help. Any clue on what to do next? Here is the xorg log: http://piratepad.net/K1u13kSLYJ
[22:31] <daftykins> rasdf: if the login manager comes up, Xorg log is irrelevant. a pastebin of "ls -al ~/" for the affected user would be handy
[22:31] <rasdf> daftykins, ok I see what I can do
[22:33] <Bashing-om> rasdf: 2 other things to check. ~/.ICEauthority and who owns /home as well as the files in /home/<username> .
[22:33] <Jordan_U> kassper: OK, I'm still waiting for the "sudo blkid" output.
[22:34] <kassper> Jordan_U: sry, that was here: http://i.imgur.com/CSTsNBi.png
[22:35] <Jordan_U> kassper: sudo mount /dev/sdc2 /mnt/
[22:35] <rasdf> Bashing-om, what you mean by check? just ls -al and see the permissions?
[22:36] <Bashing-om> rasdf: Yeah .. should all be <username> .
[22:37] <kassper> Jordan_U: I get: mount: warning: /mnt/ seems to be mounted read-only.
[22:37] <rasdf> Bashing-om thx guys hope to get back with the results soon. But then the solution would be just to chown those files?
[22:37] <kassper> Jordan_U: and I still cannot see the drive in Devices
[22:38] <Jordan_U> kassper: It's not accessible via "Filesystem" then "mnt/", or in the terminal via "/mnt/".
[22:39] <Jordan_U> kassper: *now accessible.
[22:40] <Bashing-om> rasdf: IF and only IF that is the condition -> sudo chown USERNAME:USERNAME .ICEauthority <- . for instance .
[22:40] <kassper> Jordan_U: Uhhh! I can see the files!
[22:47] <kassper> Jordan_U: Now I'm doing:  cp -r /mnt/* /media/ubuntu/42027AE9027AE0F9/Lars/lars1/ This should work right?
[22:48] <tnkhanh> sometimes my menu bar is on top of screen
[22:49] <tnkhanh> even when the program window is in the middle
[22:49] <tnkhanh> help I want my menu bar to be on top of my program window
[22:51] <Jordan_U> kassper: As long as all of the files you're copying have permissions such that they're world-readable, yes. If that is not the case, then you may need to use sudo.
[22:51] <kostkon> tnkhanh, http://www.howtogeek.com/187999/how-to-enable-local-menus-in-ubuntu-14.04/
[22:53] <Jordan_U> kassper: Also, what is your end goal? If you're just trying to save your own documents then you probably don't want to copy OSX's system files, and instead should be only copying files found in /Users/you/. If you do want to save OSX's system files, then you will be dissappointed by cp losing important permissions information, and may also have issues with some hfsplus attributes not being representable at all in ext4.
[22:53] <kassper> Jordan_U: And I'll get a message if that happens? Thank you sooo much!
[22:54] <kassper> Ehm
[22:54] <Jordan_U> kassper: You'll get an error message if there are files that can't be copied. You will *not* get an error message about permissions and attributes not being preserved.
[22:55] <kassper> Jordan_U: Ehm.. well they are going to be sent to my dads Mac afterwards. so no problems there?
[22:55] <tnkhanh> kostkon: wow, thanks a lot!
[22:55] <kostkon> tnkhanh, np
[22:55] <tnkhanh> kostkon: what a miracle :D
[22:56] <JethroTux> guyz, what kind of error is this? FFlags.ht.92: #21: Out of bounds. I've just installed i-nex and I get this error!
[22:56] <CharlotteFields> anyone manage to get byond and spacestation13 working on ubuntu 14.04..meant to just click a link in the browser that launches the application but i installed it following directions in the readme file :/
[22:59] <kassper> Jordan_U: But it is still going painfully slow, is there nothing to do about that?
[23:00] <Jordan_U> kassper: Where you're sending them isn't relevant, what's relevant is why you're copying them in the first place. What is your end goal?
[23:00] <kassper> He needs the files. And he cannot open the drive on his Mac.
[23:01] <Jordan_U> kassper: What files does he need? For what purpose? Why can't he access the files fromm the drive on his Mac?
[23:01] <kassper> Jordan_U: He needs the files. And he cannot open the drive on his Mac. And I do not have access to his mac - unless I go remote, but I don't know how to use Macs
[23:02] <Jordan_U> kassper: You have answered none of the three questions I asked.
[23:02] <terrylm> Hi
[23:03] <CharlotteFields> I just realised byond for linux is hosting only
[23:03] <terrylm> Anyone know how to fix minicom so it saves it's config files?  Says it is, but is not.
[23:04] <kassper> Jordan_U: End goal is to get him the files. He needs all of the files on the drive - 40gb of pictures clips and work. And he cannot access it because it does not mount on his Mac. I tried to do it on his Mac, but they are really hard to figure out.
[23:05] <Jordan_U> kassper: Why does he need OSX's system files?
[23:05] <daftykins> run disk utility -> fiddle -> success
[23:06] <kassper> Ehm. I thought you mean files formatted in OSx format?
[23:06] <Jordan_U> kassper: Or is that really a data only drive? (The existance of an EFI System Partition made me think it contained a full OSX installation).
[23:06] <daftykins> you'd have seen more i think
[23:07] <kassper> It is an external drive, so no system files
[23:08] <Jordan_U> kassper: OK, then using this method should be fine. Files like "pictures and clips" usually don't have any interesting file attributes that need saving.
[23:08] <kassper> Jordan_U: But yesterday night for 8 hours it copied 1,3 GB. So far in what? 20 mins. It has copied 70 MB.
[23:08] <kassper> Jordan_U: How about .ppt and .docx?
[23:08] <Jordan_U> kassper: Please pastebin the output from "dmesg" again.
[23:08] <kassper> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/TDzes0UM
[23:09] <Jordan_U> kassper: Those won't need any file attributes preserved either.
[23:10] <Jordan_U> kassper: I mean please run "dmesg" again and pastebin the new output.
[23:11] <kassper> Jordan_U: And how do I make sure all of the lines are saved?  so the first ones dont get cut off
[23:11] <Jordan_U> kassper: dmesg | pastebinit
[23:12] <terrylm> My IRC client crashed ... so will ask again ...
[23:13] <terrylm> minicom says it saves it's config, but does not.  Anyone know how to fix this?
[23:13] <kassper> Jordan_U: Here you go: http://pastebin.com/QXYB277J
[23:15] <daftykins> line 1061, could be risky though
[23:16] <Jordan_U> kassper: I don't know why it's copying so slowly.
[23:17] <daftykins> kassper: what's the copy destination?
[23:18] <kassper> It is the laptops SSD
[23:18] <kassper> daftykins: The laptops SSD
[23:18] <zoli> Hi. Why cant I click on a games icon in ubuntu dash, when the program was installed as a wine program, and the link should be probably a .lnk file?
[23:18] <llama052__> ughhh
[23:18] <kassper> daftykins: But I'm also running from a Live USB. However it was also slow on Windows with HFSExplorer.
[23:18] <llama052__> Accidentally selected all, and then terminate in AWS instead of one server.
[23:18] <daftykins> kassper: ah. i'd have probably glanced at this disk with 'Disk Utility' on the Mac
[23:19] <lyze> zoli, thats a windows thingy not a linux thingy :)
[23:19] <daftykins> yeah live session won't affect it
[23:19] <zoli> lyze: sure but it works for some of my friends, so it should work
[23:19] <lyze> zoli, right click -> open with wine or something?
[23:19] <zoli> wine programs are and should be integrated normally well
[23:19] <kassper> daftykins: no Mac here :) And his Mac is in the other side of the country
[23:20] <daftykins> ah.
[23:20] <lyze> zoli, yeah but thats a link  not a exe
[23:20]  * daftykins looks at OS X VM
[23:20] <zoli> lyze: the same .lnk works from my desktop, since the icon is placed there as well. Im just curios how this should work in ubuntu dash?
[23:20] <zoli> since it works for my frined there as well
[23:21] <jirido> Hi i try to login as root in phpmyadmin but get. You don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin/index.php on this server . i have https enabled and have no problem loging in to mysql true cli. Where could i expect to find the relevant logfile

[23:37] <garrie> I'm in the UK, so I've set my keyboard to UK layout. However, at the login screen, my computer reverts to US layout.
[23:37] <garrie> How do I ensure that the keyboard layout is UK throughout?
[23:37] <garrie> P.S. I'm on Xubuntu.
