duoiphilwong, lubuntu would run great. i personally installed elementary os (based on ubuntu, not lightweight) on my old laptop and it ran very smooth.01:32

Guest66560geode, yeah windows is good, i've never had any major problems with it and there is always a lot of support02:01

demonjesterHey guys not sure if i am in the right channel but I was wondering, what linux distro can I use on old computer, but have it cli only since the only time I am accessing it is ssh02:19
Ben64demonjester: this is an ubuntu channel, so I'd say ubuntu server, you might want to ask in ##linux though02:19
krabadordemonjester, on the *buntu way the lightest is lubuntu, but you can have a terminal-only solution, with ubuntu server02:20
demonjesterBen64: Thanks I had a feeling I should try linux, also if I install ubuntu server on a desktop pc would that affect anything since its not actual server hardware, this is just old pc.02:20
NguyenBen64: Hey ben :), so basically Ubuntu is running a bit sluggish on the system. It sometimes freezes, the dash search is a bit slow also. And when i run some programs for my Programming class. It takes a while to finish executing. I have an 8gb i7 laptop.02:20
Ben64demonjester: the server version is the same as the desktop version, just without the gui and stuff you'd normally want on a desktop computer02:21
Bashing-omdemonjester: Minimal install, if ya handy with the software repository .02:21
demonjesterBen64: ok thank you, you were very helpful02:21
Ben64Nguyen: have you tried a different desktop? like gnome-fallback or xfce or lxde? most of the time i see ubuntu running slow is due to graphics02:22
NguyenBen64: Ubuntu gives me the option to use Nvidia proprietary drivers should i try that? I havent used xfce or lxde, but i did use Openbox, and i3, and awesome. and all 3 seemed to show good preformance. but i was a bit confused on how to configure them so i reverted back to Unity.02:24
geodeproblem solved guys :D i began to love ubuntu. i get used to it02:25
Ben64Nguyen: do you know if you have a dual gpu setup02:25
Jordan_UNguyen: Try the proprietary Nvidia drivers, yes.02:26
Jordan_UNguyen: One of the primary causes of sluggishness on what should be fast machines is incomplete or completely missing 3D acceleration.02:26

Ben64Jordan_U: would installing nvidia now magically do nvidia-prime if necessary? I've avoided those types of systems02:27
Jordan_UNguyen: No, and it may improve your battery life.02:27
NguyenJordan_U: okay thank you sir, I will install and test it out02:28
Jordan_UBen64: I don't know. I have faith that given how common such hardware is now, Ubuntu's Additional drivers tool wouldn't do anything that's likely to make the user be unable to get back into X, but that faith may be misplaced.02:29
Jordan_UNguyen: You're welcome. If you have any trouble getting back to a GUI after reboot, come back here from an Ubuntu LiveCD/USB.02:29
Jordan_UNguyen: If you don't have recovery boot media, or another OS if this is a dual boot, handy then now might be a good time to get that ready.02:30
Ben64Not a bad idea, I was certainly surprised when I installed 14.04 on here and had to do absolutely nothing to get nvidia working. Didn't have to click "OK" , didn't have to open up the hardware drivers page, everything *just worked*02:30

Guest66560accessing your encrypted home folder via liveCD should be as easy as accessing an typical encrypted folder, by just clicking to mount the drive and then putting in your password, so why isn't it?03:29
Guest33687Doc-Saintly, sounds like the landscape management app scenario from Canonical03:30
baumquestion: assuming that i'll never run out of RAM means that i will never use my swap partition right?03:32

baumnope, not planning to do that - restarting the machine is usually faster03:33
baumanyways does this mean that i can create the swap partition on the ssd?03:34
krabadorbaum, with 4gb ram or more, swap isn't srictly needed03:34
baumkrabador, alright, thanks, guess the 32gb ram here make it obsolete03:34
=== tower is now known as Guest91251
Guest66560Ben42_, is it true that if you use lightDM display manager you can't hibernate?03:35
baumkrabador, leaves the question: what happens if the RAM caps at 4gb+ and no swap is available?03:35
Guest66560standby saves your open data on RAM and hibernation saves your data on the HDD right?03:35
krabadorbaum, oooh, with 32gb ram , think to other than swap, you can mount in ramdisk many things, to optimize write cycles on a ssd03:36
Guest66560hibernation basically shuts down the computer?03:36
baumGuest66560, yes it does03:37
Guest66560i heard hibernation on Ubuntu is broken tho03:37
krabadorbaum, it's really unlikely, but processes can't write things, system can became unstable and can freeze03:37
krabadorbaum, with 4gb ram it's really really unlikely03:39
baumkrabador, by chance you are aware of potential safty mechanics once this scenario happens? hard to belive that the system would simply freeze03:39
Guest66560baum is it safe to use the repair feature on a liveCD to fix a hanging issue when the distro is starting up without deleting personal files?03:40
baumGuest66560, no idea sorry03:41
krabadorbaum, only system freeze, applications that became unstable, crashes03:42

krabadorGuest66560, ok, but why?03:53
Guest66560well, when ubuntu is starting up it hangs, and i think it might be because there is no space on the hdd, i tried recovery mode tools on startup but they didn't work, so i'll try this, if not i will try to use liveCD to repair the O/S so i am trying to make backups of my personal files03:55

EriC^^i mean if [ -f file]; then05:15
EriC^^is there a space between file and ]05:15
dejavou42yes there is05:15
dejavou42sorry05:15
EriC^^ok, are you using absolute paths in it?05:15
dejavou42it isn't a syntax error because the else statement that follows executes correctly if the file doesn't exist05:16
dejavou42but if the file does exist, the script exits and returns without executing the rest of the script05:16
dejavou42if I comment out the source line and put something arbitrary like echo "ok", the rest of the script executes05:17
dejavou42the source file is syntaxed like so ## comment line (next line) VARIABLE="var"05:18
dejavou42yes I am using absolute paths, sorry I didn't see that question05:19
dejavou42EriC^^: so, It reads as if [ -f /etc/vpnclient/vpn.config]; then (next line) (tab indent) source /etc/vpnclient/vpn.config05:22
dejavou42I've tested in the home directory and it works. The only thing that I can find is that the location in  /sbin and/or /etc/vpnclient directories are causing the problems05:23

interest1ngjac0bz1: you can set an alias07:09
jac0bz1So instead of writing php /var/www/html/myscript/file.php commnand i can write something like myalias command ?07:09
interest1ngif you ~/.bashrc contains anythign about .bash_aliases put your aliases in there07:10
interest1ngif it doesnt you can make .bash_aliases and in .bashrc type in ". ~/.bash_aliases" without the quotes (include the "."07:11
interest1ngthen in .bash_aliases you can simply type:07:12
interest1ngalias myalias='php /var/www/html/myscript/file.php'07:12
interest1ngexactly as i have written above07:12
interest1ngthen restart your shell (terminal) or source the file again07:12
interest1ngthen you can type myalias to run your command :D07:13

ubottuUnity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04.  Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity07:28
JinBaba!notunity07:28
ubottuUbuntu 11.10 and higher use the !Unity desktop environment by default.  To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool".  For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown.07:28

sorinellobekks, yes, i was thinking about du, but I don't quite know exactly what paramaters to give it to it. I need the full analysys for a specific mountpoint07:29
blackrootdu --help would be helpful07:31
bekkssorinello: First, you have to define (for yourself) what a "full analysis" might be, when it comes to the question "how much space is xy using on my disk?", then "du --help" will help you choosing the desired options.07:32
sorinellobekks, I want it for my / partition07:33

azizLIGHTalso, some indicators appear on 1 panel but not theo ther09:20
azizLIGHTwhys that09:20

cfhowlettdingus1, planning to dual boot winME and lubuntu?09:21
dingus1the usb is is a backup of my lubuntu hard drive install. and yes I can still boot win ME from the HD.09:21
dingus1yes, I can dual boot win ME and lubuntu 14.04 from the hard drive.09:21
cfhowlettdingus1, partition your HDD and install lubuntu to the HDD09:22
OpenTokixyou should never boot windows me, never09:22

bekksDexter1234: you did not run all the commands I told you.09:23

dingus1I kinda like having win ME on this old computer. It is a gift for my little brother A.K.A. "the idiot". He has a smart phone but has never had a real computer. lol09:27
cfhowlettdingus1, plan B: install lubuntu, add virtualbox, install winME to vbox09:27
dingus1that is a good idea. ty09:27

Dexter1234bekks: I mean, if it makes things simpler09:32
bekksDexter1234: Thats why I considered that guide to be utter crap :)09:32
dingus1install lubuntu. "entire drive for installation" then add virtualbox and install wimME to vbox. cool09:33
bekksDexter1234: I told you the way to do what you want, without losing data. You have no other way now :)09:33
dingus1maybe little brother will not mess that up. haha09:33
Dexter1234bekks: ouch! Ok thanks!09:34
cfhowlettdingus1, replacing a broken vbox is trivial compared to replacing a broken buntu.  that said, either restrict your brother to a zero privilege guest account or a low privilege desktop user account.  DO NOT let him near the administrator account.  for that matter, you should add a daily desktop user account for yourself as well and fire up the admin account solely for admin functions.09:36
abadaybekks: thank you!09:37
azizLIGHTdoes ubuntu use lightdm or something else09:38
azizLIGHT14.0409:38
OpenTokixazizLIGHT: lightdm as default yes09:38
cfhowlettazizLIGHT, I believe all current buntus except server user lightdm09:38
azizLIGHTalright, thanks09:39
OpenTokixcfhowlett: if you install a gui on server, you will get lightdm to09:45

OpenTokixcfhowlett: There is no real differance between "editions"09:45
OpenTokixcfhowlett: just convenient - like different colors on a car - still the same car09:45
Ben64not exactly true, you can have gui on a server without lightdm09:45
OpenTokixBen64: Yes, ofc - but if you install the meta package you will get a session handler, and it ill be lightdm09:46
Ben64well yeah of course if you install ubuntu-desktop you're going to get everything in it09:46

DominiqueAnyone know a good bind DNS management web tool?09:56
DominiqueI've looked at NicTool but it's a pain in the behind to install plus not really  working on newer distributions.09:56
OpenTokixDominique: I have never seen any, but why use bind on a new installation anyway? Check out powerdns with a sql backend - for poweradmin web gui or  something similar.09:57
=== ppf_ is now known as ppf
DominiqueOpenTokix: bind is not a requirement but it's most commonly used though. And the powerdns GUI (the one I know) is really not that user friendly afaik10:00
DominiqueIt's only for internal DNS usage, not outside the company10:01
OpenTokixDominique: are you planning to host customers domains and let them edit zones and such?10:02
DominiqueOpenTokix: Nope, just for my colleagues. I would prefer to have a history shown inside the interface of what is changed. Optionally also LDAP support but not required10:02
OpenTokixDominique: I think there is some commercial stuff out there, other wise I think you need to make it yourself. - And I would _never_ run bind in a new installation.10:03
DominiqueI would write something myself but I don't have the time for it10:03
DominiqueOpenTokix: Why would you not run bind? Care to explain?10:03
DominiqueI regardless need to import current BIND data10:03
DominiqueAnd current bind needs to run as slave for the new one so I can push changes to it10:03
DominiqueAlso if you know commercial products, please share :) Our company does not mind paying for something decent10:04
OpenTokixDominique: importing bind zones is a no brainer to whatever you use. - But bind is old, has some issues with the config that you need to ake in account to make it secure and not a ddos amplifier as it is by default. - Only thing with bind is that is is very very fast, so if you have huge volume (50-100k req/minute+) - I would go with bind - not else.10:04
OpenTokixDominique: I dont have a bind commercial product on the top of my head, just vague memories of seeing a few.10:05
OpenTokixDominique: powerdns is very nice- also wrting your own tool to a sql backend for powerdns is trivial10:05
DominiqueOpenTokix: Cool thanks, I'll check out powerdns then. Do you know if I can let a bind run as a slave to powerdns (just temporarily) ?10:07
OpenTokixDominique: yes, ofc. - powerdns is a fully fledged dns-server. - you can keep your sql-backed powerdns as a master, and then have bind slaves internet-facing if you want to10:08
OpenTokixDominique: or just buy the slave-dns from somewhere10:08
azizLIGHTso.. dual monitor people, how do you make the notifications appear on the right monitor10:09

OpenTokixDominique: yeah10:10
OpenTokixDominique: I think you will come around for powerdns when you try it ;)10:10
DominiqueSurely :) I wonder if there is some python interface for powerdns10:11

OpenTokixDominique: https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdnscontrol <-- They made one ;)10:12
azizLIGHTis it possible to have workspace for only 1 monitor10:16
OpenTokixazizLIGHT: yes, if you start one xserver for each monitor, - then you cant drag windows between them. - Better solution is to just make windows on the other monitor sticky - ie. "Show on all workspaces"10:17
DominiqueOpenTokix: I noticed, thanks! :D10:18

SkizuI messed up guys12:35
SkizuI just installed ubuntu 14.04 LTS desktop edition12:36
SkizuInstalled alongside windows 7, thought it'd install on the new blank SSD, it didn't12:36
SkizuNow windows 7 won't boot, says no permission or something, I tried to use the repair, but the size is 0KB, so I assume no permission, anyone had this issue or know a resource to help repair this?12:37
freeroutebekks: this post really explained the whole HWE thing to me - http://askubuntu.com/questions/248914/what-is-hardware-enablement-hwe - ...but I'm still unsure as to why the -image tag has to be added to the kernels. You mentioned that it's the name of the linux kernel package as packaged for Ubuntu, but isn't it the same for linux-generic? For example, why is the -image tag missing from12:42
freeroutelunux-signed-generic-lts-trusty? I've tried to read this LTS enablement stack documentation (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack) but I feel it was written for reference use mostly. From what I've understand it's a combination of HWE and LTS kernels. I did however learn a bit more about the release schedule of Ubuntu kernels.12:42
freerouteSkizu: boot from into a liveCD and run sudo gparted12:43
freeroutethat will tell you if the partitions are still there, and hope that you didn't overwrite your win7 partition with your ubuntu one12:43
SkizuWhat's liveCD?12:44
freerouteSkizu: what experience do you have with Ubuntu? Let's start with that.12:44
SkizuI've never used it as a desktop, only server edition12:44
SkizuCLI12:44
freerouteok, so you're comfortable with the CLI?12:45
k1l_Skizu: are you sure you installed alongside windows?12:45
SkizuSure, not an expert by all means12:45
SkizuThe option literally said, install ubuntu alongside windows 712:45
k1l_ca you show a "sudo fdisk -l" (small L at the end) in a pastebin?12:45
freeroutecool, then let's find out if you installed Ubuntu alongside win7 or on top of it, do what k1l_ says if you're still booted in Ubuntu.12:45
freerouteif not, you can boot from the USB stick / CD and select "Try Ubuntu without installing" option.12:46
Skizuk1l_: http://www.tiikoni.com/tis/view/?id=a3fb90812:47
bekksfreeroute: Whats the actual issue behind your questions about the names of the kernel packages?12:47
bekksfreeroute: whats the big picture?12:48
k1l_Skizu: well, what sort of setup is this? windows on a 1tb disk and ubuntu should be on the 120Gb disk?12:48
SkizuWindows was on the 120GB disk12:49
SkizuData on the 1TB disk, and wanted ubuntu on the 30GB disk12:49
freeroutebekks: I was just wondering what the difference was between all those kernels. My goal was to get the latest kernel or a kernel with latest features. As I've learned that would be the HWE kernel. A side question was what the -image tag meant on kernels.12:49
SkizuWhat I think it currently is is, Windows and Ubuntu on the 120GB disk12:50
k1l_Skizu: well, the 30GB disk is ntfs, that is not ubuntu.12:50
SkizuBasically I want to fix the 120GB disk to be just windows, and then I'll format the 30GB disk and install ubuntu again12:50
k1l_but i am not familiar with gpt and uefi (and i dont like that) so i am not much help in that setup12:51
freeroutebekks: ideally, that kernel with the latest features would also be supported as long as an LTS kernel in the sense that it would keep receiving critical/security updates.12:52
Skizuk1l_: I've no idea what they are either12:52
Ben64a "sudo parted -l" will show the partitions on the GPT drive12:52
freeroute(if parted is installed)12:52
k1l_freeroute: hardware enablement stack is to provide newer kernels and xorg to the LTS release as an option since you dont want 3-5 years old kernels and such sometimes but want a LTS release for the rest.12:52
bekksfreeroute: Which is not the case.12:53
bekksfreeroute: "the lastest kernel" is "the latest kernel provided for that LTS release", then your statement is true.12:53
k1l_freeroute: so the HWE is using the backports kernels from like 14.10. but keep in mind that you need to switch to the next kernel since the HWE got limited support timeframes12:53
SkizuResult of what Ben64 said http://www.tiikoni.com/tis/view/?id=ee9416612:54
Ben64Skizu: that doesn't look good at all...12:54
SkizuAm I right in reading this; windows gotsquashed to 1049kB ?12:55
Ben64Skizu: you said windows was on the 120GB? Because it does not appear to be currently12:55
SkizuUbuntu, you're a ****12:55
Ben64you can't blame ubuntu12:55
SkizuI used the Ubuntu install alongside Windows 7 option, I will blame their lies12:56
k1l_why does the 1TB has a boot flag then?12:56
Ben64it asks you what to do, and it also has you confirm what its about to do before it changes anything12:56
k1l_if its only data partition12:56
SkizuI confirmed the option Install alongside Windows 712:56
vishnuavenuhow to backup my os installation partition on another partition of same hard disk ...12:57
cfhowlettSkizu, less attitude + more facts MIGHT actually yield some assistance.12:57
vishnuavenui do'nt want to .. purchase new harddrive12:57
freeroutek1l_: so after the support for that HWE kernel has ended, can I then switch to the HWE kernel of the next LTS release?12:57
bekksNo.12:58
k1l_freeroute: every pointrelease there is a new HWE kernel, yes12:58
k1l_freeroute: and you need to change to the other kernel package.12:58
bekksEvery pointrelease, but yout are not intended to use a kernel for another LTS release.12:58
bekks*you12:58
k1l_and you are still mixing LTS releases there12:59
Ben64freeroute: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=14.04.x+Ubuntu+Kernel+Support+Schedule.png12:59
bekksfreeroute: LTS releases: 12.04, 14.04, 16.04, etc - pointreleases: 14.04, 14.04.1, 14.04.2, etc12:59
k1l_freeroute: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=14.04.x+Ubuntu+Kernel+Support+Schedule.png12:59
k1l_freeroute: the page really really really explaines it all, even with pictures.13:00
freerouteI thought https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/ was primarily used as reference for developers.13:00
SkizuSo can I assume my windows is gone? Or if it's got a read issue? As it says that there's like a read issue in many places?13:01
freeroutealso I thought that pointreleases were a part of LTS13:01
k1l_freeroute: you are mixing a lot of things here13:01
freerouteyes :(13:01
vishnuavenuhow to backup my os installation partition on another partition of same hard disk ...13:02
k1l_freeroute: so what is your actual question? (i only see you mising more things into stuff you already dont understand)13:02
k1l_*mixing13:02
Ben64vishnuavenu: you'd need a second partition the same size or bigger13:03
vishnuavenuya i have ...13:03
freeroutek1l_: I think mainly I just wanted a kernel with latest features and long critical/security support, so I wondered if such a thing existed.13:03
vishnuavenueven if partition have on 8 gb ... written13:04
vishnuavenui want to backup the .. OS installation13:04
Ben64vishnuavenu: terribly inefficient and kind of pointless. what if the drive fails? your backup is gone too13:05
vishnuavenuohhh ... sry13:05
vishnuavenuyaa true ....13:05
k1l_freeroute: well, you want the biggest house with the smallest rent. you need to decide what is more important to you. the picture i showed you shows what the options are for you on 14.04. you can stay on the original kernel or go the path of HWE where you need to change to the new supported kernel on your own13:05
vishnuavenuthen what to do13:05
bekksfreeroute: Just use the LTS hardware enablement stack, and you will be perfectly fine, when using sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade;13:05
cfhowlettvishnuavenu, backup your DATA.  get a USB or an external drive.13:06
freeroutebekks: do I have to do that everytime I want to update13:06
freeroute?13:06
bekksfreeroute: Of course. You always need to run sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade for getting updfates.13:06
bekks*updates13:06
vishnuavenuok ... then ... what tool should i use13:06
k1l_freeroute: that is running updates at all. apt-get dist-upgrade is needed for getting updates that require other packages to be installed while update, like kernel updates do13:06
freeroutebekks: oh, I always ran sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade13:07
mike_papavishnuavenu: look for 'dd backup'  on google. It will let you create image of partition. You can compress it -  this way empty space will take virtuallay no space.13:07
bekksfreeroute: use dist-upgrade instead of upgrade, as the messages on the screen tell you :)13:07
=== liam_ is now known as Guest95654
freerouteoh, someone used to tell me (on this channel) that it wasn't always safe but I'll just do dist-upgrade then13:08
mike_papavishnuavenu: But as others said. Keeping bakcup on same disk is not good idea. Unless you experiment, and want to have img for quick recovery.13:08

XanoI am looking for a solution that accepts a maximum system load and info on how to spawn child processes (queue workers) and balances the number of child processes (workers) against the system load. If the load gets too high, it should kill workers, but if the load gets too low, it should spawn new ones. Does something like this exist?14:23
HoloPedcfhowlett, thanks14:24
cfhowlettHoloPed, check ebay and amazon.  You'll probably find a bargain and save time, effort and frustration.14:24
OpenTokixXano: never heard of, and it would probably spinn out of control14:27
XanoOpenTokix: How so?14:27
OpenTokixXano: since the fork of new workers would give you some load increase, and if you are right above the treshhold14:28
OpenTokixXano: is it just general processes, or something you think about?14:28
XanoOpenTokix: AMQP queue workers that perform analyses on a multicore server14:28
XanoAnd in our current (homemade not very well-designed) system we start with one worker per queue and increase or decrease based on the system's load average14:29
XanoThe workers are started on cron, however, and they terminate once they've completed a cycle14:29
XanoThe new system will have workers running continuously until they are killed by another process, or until they crash14:30
trijntjeI accidentally deleted a bunch of scripts I wrote, what is the best way to recover only these scripts?14:30
=== aleksi is now known as Guest23540
somsiptrijntje: how did you delete them?14:31
OpenTokixXano: your very latency sensitive, or why are you starting and stopping workers?14:31
whimbooi experience some slowness in downloading security updates for ubuntu 14.10 from various servers. can it be that some have load issues?14:32
whimboolike http://us.archive.ubuntu.com14:32
whimbooi get about 90kb/s only14:32
XanoOpenTokix: The current situation stops workers, because they are PHP scripts that just terminate when they're done processing a single item. The next cron run then spawns new workers. The new situation (with the AMQP queue) will have workers running continuously on multiple servers (not all with the same specs), so we're looking for a solution that automatically optimizes the number of workers.14:32
trijntjesomsip: rm. The problem is that the partition that held the scripts also has a lot of very big data files, so I'm looking for some program that can recover only ascii files < 500kb or so14:32
OpenTokixXano: I havent seen it - but I "think" it would be doable with monit (system to run services)14:33
somsiptrijntje: don't do anything that might write data to the drive, and look at this http://extundelete.sourceforge.net/14:33
XanoOpenTokix: https://mmonit.com/ ?14:33
OpenTokixXano: I would say, just let the workers running - dont think of it as a program, think of it as a tube for trains passing thru. - They are always open.14:33
XanoOpenTokix: I guess we want to optimize the available CPU power as much as we can, but we're a bit afraid to accidentally overload systems, because something happens when we're not looking14:34
OpenTokixXano: no, software called monit - its in the ubuntu repos14:34
OpenTokixXano: Rabbitmq will not do that for you14:34
OpenTokixXano: Dont worry about it14:34
XanoOpenTokix: Ah, will look for it14:34
OpenTokixXano: how much traffic are you looking at?14:35
OpenTokixXano: if its less then say 5k/sec per messagebroker, you have nothing to worry about at all14:35
OpenTokixXano: it is not php14:35
XanoOpenTokix: I know RabbitMQ doesn't do any load balancing, simply because it doesn't do any worker stuff. It just pushes to registered workers and that's it.14:35
XanoOpenTokix: Also, our RabbitMQ server will run on a different machine14:35
OpenTokixXano: yes, but it is very fast and lean - so just run it - configure your queues and let them be14:36
somsipXano: are you cloud based?14:36
OpenTokixXano: that is my suggestion for you14:36
XanoOpenTokix: The network trafficwon't be too much, I expect less than 5MB/s on average, but the analyses just take a lot of CPU time14:36
OpenTokixXano: But the analyzing is done after the messagebroker, correct?14:37
XanoOpenTokix: Yeah. The broker (queue) pushes messages to the consumers on one of a handful of servers.14:37
Xanosomsip: what *exactly* are you asking?14:38
OpenTokixXano: I thgink your inital idea of starting and stopping workers - is bad design then14:38
XanoOpenTokix: So the issue of performance and balancing takes place within the scope of a single server running multiple consumers14:38
somsipXano: I'm thinking load balancers and auto-scaling groups, but it depends on how you run your servers, and this is rather OT here so I'll just throw that one in the pot and leave it at that14:38
XanoOpenTokix: We may have a server that is capable of running 10 consumers, and one that can handle only 5 at a time14:38
OpenTokixXano: yes, but base that on the specs of the machine - and not on the load - I assume every task is pretty similar, but it is many tasks.14:39
Xanosomsip: We can never predict how much time it takes to process a single message *exactly*.14:39
XanoOpenTokix: Tasks are the same, but depending on the context it may take 3, 4, 5, 6 seconds per task.14:39
OpenTokixXano: but will one task (realistically) be 10x another?14:39
Xanono14:40
XanoIn practice I've never seen more than 2x14:40
OpenTokixXano: I dont think you have to overengineer it then, 3 or 10s - no worries - if its 3 or 30 or 300, then you have to do it "better"14:40
OpenTokixXano: Dont overengineer, is my educated suggestion14:40
XanoOpenTokix: That is usually sensible advice :)14:40
OpenTokixXano: I designed a system that handled 3 billion web req/day14:40
OpenTokixXano: ran for five years, 99.96% uptime =)14:41
XanoOpenTokix: I'm just really worried that we won't be using expensive VPSs to the fullest or that we'll overload them.14:41
OpenTokixXano: still runnning, but I switched jobs =)14:41
XanoOpenTokix: nice :)14:41
PCatineanCan one setup a vpn on ubuntu even if the key was designed for windows? Sorry very bad with this14:41

O_OniGiriHi there, I have a problem with multiple users. I would like to give users the permission to install applications using sudo, however I do not want them to access each other's files. Please help me out.14:47
O_OniGiriIs it possible for ubuntu to do this?14:48
Guest60067mount: mount point /mnt/dev does not exist14:48
Guest60067this is my error14:48
trijntjeO_OniGiri: look into the sudoers file, you can give users permission to run certain commands as sudo14:48
trijntjeO_OniGiri: on the other hand, they could then make and install a fake .deb files that destroy the data of other users14:49
O_OniGiritrijntje: I will look into it, thanks :)14:49
OpenTokixGuest60067: how did your brother remove the kernel?14:49
OpenTokixGuest60067: via apt?14:49
O_OniGiritrijntje: But they can't access each others home folder?14:49
trijntjeO_OniGiri: define 'access', all home folders are open for reading by all users by default14:50
OpenTokixGuest60067: if you copy the kernel file + initrd from the cdrom to your /boot/  folder on the system, then you can boot that kernel from the command line - and probably get into a console to install a working kernel14:50
mike_papaO_OniGiri: They will be able to do, what you let them. With sudoers you can decide what commands, and as which user they can do.14:50
trijntjeO_OniGiri: it might be easier to just encrypt the home folders of all users. That way the cannot see each others files, and you can make them all admin. Just know that they will still be able to destroy each other's data if they want14:51
mike_papaO_OniGiri: You can even decide if using sudo requires password, or not, and in which cases it does, or does not.14:51
Guest60067OpenTokix: I think he did that manually14:52
Guest60067OpenTokix: can you please guide me through what I have to do? I'm kinda newbie to unix14:52

borisetoHello, I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 with gnome-fallback session. Does anybody know why does it prompt me twice for the password when I wake my machine from suspend? Once with the gnome fallback option, once with lightdm.17:56
bazhangboriseto, does the screensaver have a require password checked or not17:58
Tobias[L]boriseto: why do you use gnome-fallback in the first place? also maybe because gnome-fallback and lightdm each have separate locking mechanisms but not sure about that17:58
=== QuaxEros is now known as Guest69888
ioriajimini   : when exactly  Boot-repair   is   asking you a connection ?17:58
borisetobazhang, screensaver? You mean the brigness and lock menu? Tobias[L] , I do love Unity, but it uses too much resources for me on this machine.17:59
Tobias[L]ioria: jimini: boot-repair uploads the files generated and debug info to ubuntu pastebin so an expert can review it if needed, if you dont have an working connection ignore it18:00
Tobias[L]boriseto: why not gnome as usual? fallback uses software rendering afaik and that should burden an resource-less machine even more18:00
borisetoTobias[L], my main problem is the graphic card, it's outdated, so when using Metacity instead of Compiz, it responds better, but the only annoying bug is the activation of the lightdm on wake.18:01
borisetoTobias[L], and I don't use XFCE or something else because I'm used to the tools provided by Unity/Gnome18:02
Tobias[L]boriseto: even on outdated cards gnome works for me without fallback, my old laptop has an AMD Radeon HD 3450 which is not supported anymore yet gnome works fine and fluidly18:03
vesterAfter upgrade ubuntu 14.04.1 to 14.04.2 using Command dist-upgrade and restart system, I log in to my account but unity wont start I See background for a few seconds and then only black screen and cursor. So I try ctrl+ alt+F6 and enter command startx but same results, black screen. I install different drivers for graphic card (geforce 6100 nforce 405) nvidia-304, nvidia-331 etc. even I re-install ubuntu (14.04.2) but still same prob18:04
ioriajimini   : have you noted Tobias[L]   remarks  ?18:04
borisetoTobias[L], if you are talking about the Gnome3, well it's not for my preference, I'm just not used to it and the Unity/GnomeFallback options are the best for my UX.18:05

GranOne of the issues I'm tackiling right now is that I uninstalled Empathy Internet Messenger and Pidgin but on the system bar in the top, the messenger icon is still there with the applications still present18:34
jiminiGran: yeah, "legacy boot" means something like "boot up like you did it in the good old BIOS times and ignore this fancy new UEFI stuff" ;)18:35
Tobias[L]jimini: not possible for me, my pc only boots from GDM partitioned drives with UEFI (Grub support) or i need to install lilo which is a pain to maintain18:35

GranSethj, no it's an Alienware M14x R218:36

rangergordhi...I installed Wine yesterday, now I want to remove it. I did "apt-get remove wine", which said it would only remove 20KB. The files are still on my system, and my text files are still being opened with Notepad. How do I purge this?20:10

THere are no settings on the tv that I can find to bring the picture within the screen boundaries. Is there a preferred way to adjust from within ubuntu? Tell me if I can clarify my question. Thanks! http://askubuntu.com/questions/248094/how-20:35

q1aaHello. My original ubuntu partition is 11.04, and then I installed 12.04 in a new partition. Every time my Grub entries need to be updated, I always have to go into the old 11.04 partition in order to update grub. How do I make the Grub from the 12.04 partition take over? Changing the grub settings from 12.04 doesn't do anything. The 11.04 version of Grub takes over.20:51
ajshell1Hello.20:51
q1aaHi. I couldn't find that answer on google.20:52

ikoniathe problem you will find is that 12.04 uses grub2. so it will not update anything from 11.04 - but as 11.04 is dead this is not really a problem20:53

frimendI'm not qualified to say more ikonia.21:33
frimendI don't know more.21:33
KingCrabI think you need to setup raid in your hardware raid device before installing ? intel raid manager or somthing like that at boot21:34
frimendFrom what I have understod so far, there are three types. Hardware raid (which I'm unable to have, since I don't have the hardware).21:35
frimendand Software raid, and FakeRaid.21:35
frimendFakeRaid I can use the motherboards onboard drivers for.21:35
frimendBut I want the ubuntu software-raid instead.21:36
frimendSince I believe that is more stabile and better, than some random motherboards drivers.21:36
frimendI don't know what "MDADM containers (Intell/DDF RAID)" means or if I should activate it or not.21:36

Ormuthere's no such a setting, and how does it matter with USB sticks?22:27
imbezolbecause the USB stick will be, for example, /dev/sda when you boot off it22:28
imbezolif it shows up as /dev/hda then lubuntu might not find it when pivoting into the root drive22:28
jufohi do you know me if someone sends spam msg telling shit about me please forward it for my inbox or direct msg22:28
imbezolOrmu: i'd suggest burning a CD or PXE booting22:29
k1ljufo: here on irc?22:29
Ormuimbezol: yeah, looks like that's the way to go... USB sticks tend to be a mess, especially with older computers22:29
OrmuCDs are slow and noisy22:29
imbezolOrmu: there used to be a trick back when all systems had that issue22:30

pierre1_Hey, guys. I'm getting a warning every time I try to install something with apt-get.22:31
dingus1hi, I have nvidia-settings installed under lubuntu 14.04 but sometimes a new window/dialog is outside the screen by a bit.22:31
pierre1_I'm getting "Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 3.13.0-44-generic cannot be found." and later "cp: cannot stat ‘/sbin/rmmod’: No such file or directory"22:31
pierre1_Could anyone check out the paste? http://pastebin.com/c9SE77YM22:31
Ormuimbezol: is there anything I could do with the usb stick contents? looks like there aren't any useful options in the BIOS22:34
imbezolpierre1_: do you have kmod installed?22:34
=== Guest35859 is now known as TheEternalAbyss
pierre1_imbezol, it seems that I do!22:35

GranAnyone know why the audio output for the internal speakers work fine but the  headphone jack won't output?22:47
OrmuGran: this is a dumb guess, but maybe headphone jack is muted?22:47

in_deep_thoughtjust opened my desktop and swapped graphics cards. Now my system won’t boot: Invalid configuration information which makes sense because it doesn’t recognize the graphics card.

BLZbubbadingus1: help with what?  can you use alt+mouse and drag it?23:08

rasdfhi guys a friend of mine has a freeze after login problem. he checked permissions and they are ok (.ICEauthority, .Xauthority, and /home/<user>/ folder belong to the correct user). What can he check more?23:09

ubottuEnd-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades23:11
rasdfBLZbubba, he can switch to tty1, dunno about num lock. I made him useradd a new user and now he can login with no problem via gui with the new user so I thought it could be a permission problem somewhere in home...23:12
in_deep_thoughtBLZbubba: there are 3 options. NVIDIA binary, proprietary, tested. NVIDIA binary, proprietary, and X.ORg X server (open source). It appears I am using xorg right now and I would assume that I want to switch to the first option. So I click the radio button, apply changes, enter my password, and it loads this thing and then reverts me back to xorg23:12
in_deep_thoughtApply changes sounds right to me but….23:12
BLZbubbarasdf: switching to tty1 is good too. maybe look in ~/.xsession-errors for the broken user23:13
in_deep_thoughtI guess as long as its actually using the graphics card and not something integrated, thats ok.23:13
in_deep_thoughtdoes xorg server open source mean an integrated graphics card? Does that mean Im not using the graphics card yet?23:14
BLZbubbain_deep_thought: no xorg can use proprietary drivers23:14
in_deep_thoughtok Im probably good then23:14
in_deep_thoughtthanks!23:14
BLZbubbaif you aren't doing 3d games and you don't need mpeg acceleration then use nouveau23:14
