| cfhowlett | abreu, check for local Ubuntu Loco's and LUG's - Linux User Group in your area. | 02:48 |

| daftykins | Joebean: does not make it a supported distro. no support here | 03:38 |
| daftykins | maybe they have their own channel? | 03:39 |
| toothe | god dman it. | 03:39 |
| toothe | I tried installing virtualbox-guest-additions-x11 and all that, never works. | 03:40 |
| Rez1700 | hi ya | 03:43 |
| Joebean | anyone running 14.10 | 03:46 |
| daftykins | you're going to have to be a lot more specific than that | 03:46 |
| cfhowlett | Joebean, backbox not supported here. at all. sorry. | 03:47 |
| cfhowlett | !flavors | Joebean | 03:47 |
| ubottu | Joebean: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. | 03:47 |
| rww | not relevant | 03:47 |
| * daftykins wonders what specifically isn't relevant | 03:48 | |
| rww | you were probably looking for !derivatives, but the content of that already got covered more than once | 03:48 |
| rww | anyways | 03:49 |
| rww | Joebean: Backbox's IRC channel is #backbox on irc.autistici.org . There is also https://forum.backbox.org/ | 03:49 |
| daftykins | we might need a factoid for that, that's at least the fourth time i've seen backbox mentioned | 03:50 |
| Joebean | thanks rww | 03:50 |
| daftykins | also, what a ridiculous name =| | 03:50 |
| rww | ubottu: backbox is <reply> Backbox Linux is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu and is thus not supported in #ubuntu. Please use #backbox on irc.autistici.org or https://forum.backbox.org/ for help with it. | 03:51 |

| econdudeawesome | Howdy all! Got a mystery on my hands. My root directory is almost full, and I can't figure out why. Running Ubuntu 14.04 64bit | 04:13 |
| econdudeawesome | When I first checked I had an "overflow", but after rebooting thats gone | 04:13 |
| daftykins | what action are you trying to perform? | 04:14 |
| daftykins | can you use http://paste.ubuntu.com to share the output of "df -h" in a terminal? | 04:14 |
| econdudeawesome | daftykins: nothing in particulr, just trying to figure out what is causing it to fill up (dont think its files). http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10480465/ | 04:15 |
| daftykins | econdudeawesome: yeah it is, your / (root) partition is full. it will be set to allocate 5% reserved space to the root user, so likely that's full even right now | 04:16 |
| econdudeawesome | How should I proceed? | 04:16 |
| kostkon | econdudeawesome, check the size of all the files in your /var/log folder | 04:16 |
| daftykins | econdudeawesome: well, you might be able to make some free space. can you paste (using the same site) "ls -al /boot" ? | 04:16 |
| econdudeawesome | yuck. I did do an update yesterday, wonder if that's the cause. Dafty: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10480511/ , kostkon: good call: -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 30931697585 Feb 28 23:11 kern.log | 04:18 |
| econdudeawesome | and -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 30931189760 Feb 28 08:02 syslog.1 | 04:18 |
| daftykins | wowzer | 04:19 |
| econdudeawesome | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10480530/ | 04:19 |
| econdudeawesome | so... these are okay to delete? | 04:19 |
| daftykins | econdudeawesome: "sudo apt-get autoremove" should remove some older kernels and so on | 04:19 |
| econdudeawesome | what can I do about the 31GB logs that seem to want to hang out? | 04:19 |
| daftykins | lol is that kern.log 30GB or am i too drunk to read numbers 0o | 04:19 |
| econdudeawesome | yep, wtf | 04:20 |
| zykotick9 | econdudeawesome: i'd suggest figuring out what's using your space. "cd /" then "du -sh * 2>/dev/null" might shed some light. good luck. | 04:20 |
| econdudeawesome | zykotick9: apparently I have two log files taking up 30GB each | 04:20 |
| kostkon | econdudeawesome, tail /var/log/kern.log | 04:21 |
| kostkon | econdudeawesome, yeah, 60gb | 04:21 |
| econdudeawesome | kostkon: looks legit. Want a pastie? | 04:21 |

| _aoe-uhoeua-423 | Hello, all! This is my first time on IRC, so can someone tell me what this thing is? | 04:22 |
| daftykins | a chat channel for ubuntu support - and right now you're off topic | 04:22 |
| kexibq | a | 04:22 |
| econdudeawesome | .. intuition says log files are okay to delete, but I have no idea. | 04:22 |
| wafflejock | _aoe-uhoeua-423, this room is for people seeking support using Ubuntu, IRC in general is just this topic based channels for chatting | 04:22 |
| _aoe-uhoeua-423 | Oh, Well in that case, I need support | 04:22 |
| daftykins | !ask | 04:23 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 04:23 |
| daftykins | econdudeawesome: best way would be to rename them first, then reboot and see if they're recreated. | 04:23 |
| daftykins | but your system is seriously full, i don't know how you've done that :) | 04:23 |
| econdudeawesome | Seem to have a LOT of this: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10480586/ | 04:24 |
| econdudeawesome | darn it | 04:24 |
| econdudeawesome | hang on | 04:24 |
| daftykins | econdudeawesome: does "sudo apt-get autoremove" offer to remove lots of junk? | 04:24 |
| econdudeawesome | Feb 28 08:02:47 ogre kernel: [61656.935876] ehci-pci 0000:00:13.2: PCI-DMA: Out of IOMMU space for 16 bytes | 04:24 |
| econdudeawesome | that message appears a lot | 04:24 |
| econdudeawesome | daftykins it removed the old kernels | 04:24 |
| daftykins | good stuff, a tiny bit more free space now then? | 04:24 |
| econdudeawesome | 1% | 04:24 |
| econdudeawesome | those logs man... what is IOMMU? | 04:25 |
| econdudeawesome | Feb 28 08:02:47 ogre kernel: [61656.935876] ehci-pci 0000:00:13.2: PCI-DMA: Out of IOMMU space for 16 bytes | 04:25 |
| econdudeawesome | ah, wireless connection | 04:26 |
| daftykins | i gotta call it a night i'm afraid, but 220GB of / ? that 's not enough space to even swing a virtual penguin in anymore. | 04:26 |
| econdudeawesome | Best I got--1TB is all im working with | 04:27 |
| daftykins | i would probably look for a nice version of the "find" command which finds files of size 10MB+ to see what's eating space, other than those logs. | 04:27 |
| daftykins | e.g. "find / -size ..." | 04:27 |
| econdudeawesome | sudo find / -xdev -type f -size +3000M | 04:27 |
| wafflejock | ncdu is nice too | 04:27 |
| daftykins | yeah that'll work. | 04:27 |
| wafflejock | ncdu is command line scans a folder and gives you an ncurses (window in the terminal) with folders sorted by file size | 04:28 |
| wafflejock | like k4dirstat or disk usage but works at the CLI if you need it and don't want extra bloat from a GUI | 04:28 |
| ianorlin | but not sure want to install with stuff the full | 04:29 |
| wafflejock | yeah ncdu is small relative to the other ones too though, so long as you can clear up like a few megs or something you're all good | 04:30 |
| econdudeawesome | well one was a rotated log file, removed without issue | 04:31 |
| econdudeawesome | the other is kern.log--so I set /etc/cron.daily/logrotate | 04:31 |
| econdudeawesome | hopefully that will move it to a .gz in a few days and I can nerf it | 04:31 |
| econdudeawesome | had internet issues last night with the router--wonder if this had something to do with it | 04:32 |
| wafflejock | yeah not sure about that problem I've only had logs blow up on me once or twice but don't recall the root reason | 04:32 |
| econdudeawesome | wafflejock: what should I do in the meantime with the kern.log? Is there any way to make the log rotate manually? | 04:33 |

| wafflejock | econdudeawesome, Squall5668 ah didn't know that I would typically do what daftykins had mentioned just rename it and reboot then can always put it back from a liveCD in the worst case scenario | 04:34 |
| econdudeawesome | Squall5668: didnt rotate it (did sudo logrotate -f kern.log) | 04:35 |
| daftykins | or !recovery :D | 04:35 |
| Squall5668 | econdudeawesome: I believe it's logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.conf, but... | 04:37 |

| Bray90820 | Prob now but would there be a way to find out what PSU is in your system from ubuntu | 09:18 |
| meganerd | Bray90820: not unless it is one of the fancy ones that connects to the motherboard with USB | 09:20 |
| Bray90820 | meganerd: They make those? | 09:21 |
| Squall5668 | There is such a thing? Why? | 09:21 |
| meganerd | Bray90820: I though Corsair did a little while ago | 09:21 |
| meganerd | Bray90820: they had a whole line of random things that would connect to USB headers on the motherboard. For overclocking and stats and stuff I presume | 09:22 |
| === Yukkii is now known as Yukkino | ||
| Bray90820 | meganerd: Alright | 09:22 |
| Bray90820 | Well it's not one of those | 09:22 |
| meganerd | Bray90820: there is no data connection between the PSU and your computer, so there is no way to tell from within any OS | 09:22 |
| meganerd | Bray90820: Squall5668 For your amusement and or enjoyment: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/blog/2013/september/rm_series_psu_to_corsair_link | 09:24 |
| internetman | i remember there is another project similar to owncloud and syncthing in sort of early development, but I cant find it :/ anyone know what im thinking about? | 09:25 |
| Bray90820 | meganerd: That's funny | 09:25 |
| meganerd | internetman: there are a lot of projects like that | 09:26 |
| internetman | meganerd: yup ofc but not all are promising :p | 09:26 |
| meganerd | internetman: I have been looking for such a solution for more than a decade... not promising is an understatement | 09:27 |
| internetman | meganerd: :) well you have never been closer! | 09:28 |
| meganerd | internetman: I am skeptical | 09:28 |
| Bray90820 | meganerd: off topic from the channel but what would you think of replacing a PSU fan with one with less dba | 09:30 |
| meganerd | internetman: so far btsync + encfs is the closest I have come to what I want | 09:30 |
| meganerd | Bray90820: depends on your budget and requirements. I will spend more on a PSU that is quiet for my DAW. I will mod at the drop of a hat, though I draw the line at touching the PSU. | 09:32 |
| meganerd | Bray90820: So I wouldn't do it. I would not think twice about buying a quieter one. | 09:33 |
| Bray90820 | I once moded a PSU and it has worked well for the past 3 years | 09:33 |
| Bray90820 | But on an always on PC idk | 09:33 |
| meganerd | Bray90820: I don't cheap out on or mess with PSUs, so I am not the guy and this is probably not place to ask :) | 09:34 |
| Siente | Hello guys, can I use the PenDriveLinux for 64-bit Ubuntu 14.10 | 09:35 |

| mehdi_ | hi fellas how can i add lines to my resolve.conf? since it will be overwritten | 10:02 |
| pvinis | hello. i got a vps and it has 14.04 lts but with 2.6.32 kernel | 10:02 |
| pvinis | is there a way to upgrade it to 3? | 10:03 |
| mehdi_ | have you tried apt-get update && apt-get upgrade ? | 10:03 |
| bekks | pvinis: Most likely no, since your hoster uses a customized kernel for your VPS being able to boot. | 10:05 |
| pvinis | aha | 10:05 |
| pvinis | f*ckers.. | 10:05 |
| pvinis | ok. then im canceling it | 10:05 |
| bekks | Cancelling what? | 10:05 |
| pvinis | do you know any normal cheap vps in europe? | 10:05 |
| pvinis | canceling the vps i got from them | 10:06 |
| bekks | pvinis: As the V in CPS indicates, all VPS are _virtuall_ private servers, running customized kernel for being able to boot. | 10:06 |
| bekks | V in VPS. | 10:06 |
| === NEON is now known as Guest92306 | ||
| pvinis | yea ok but other vps have kernel 3.10 etc | 10:06 |
| bekks | You need to get a dedicated root server (as they are called in Europe), for getting around that limitation. | 10:07 |
| pvinis | so if i get a vps at least i should have a new ekrnel | 10:07 |
| bekks | pvinis: 3.10 isnt the current 14.04 kernel either. | 10:07 |
| monkwitdafunk | What you run is the userspace aside from the kernel | 10:07 |
| pvinis | i want to run docker | 10:07 |
| bekks | pvinis: And just because they are using 2.6.32 or 3.10 it doesnt indicate that they did not apply latest security patches. | 10:07 |
| monkwitdafunk | Me too | 10:08 |
| pvinis | and docker says it wants 3.10 | 10:08 |
| Crucidal | hi | 10:08 |
| winterchillz | good morning ... or afternoon, not sure | 10:08 |
| monkwitdafunk | I believe ubuntu has kernel 3.16 | 10:08 |

| Crucidal | I'm quite new to ubuntu (and linux in general) | 10:09 |
| ubottu | Package linux-image does not exist in trusty | 10:09 |
| pvinis | so i have to find another vps provider with >3 kernel | 10:09 |

| winterchillz | 'Linux version 3.16.0-31-generic' that's 2 days old Ubuntu 14.04 LTS install | 10:09 |
| Crucidal | and of course... Iḿ running into problems that I cannot solve 0=) | 10:09 |

| msodrew | i just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.10 in a VMWare Fusion 7 vm.... only to find out after an hour that the shared folders / hgfs mount feature does not work with the 14.10 kernel and/or 64-bit linux :| | 10:10 |
| Crucidal | Oh, ok | 10:10 |
| bekks | msodrew: Works fine with 64bit vms. | 10:10 |
| msodrew | gcc fails | 10:10 |
| msodrew | i think it has to do with the 3.16 kernel | 10:10 |
| winterchillz | bekks: I'll just pretend I know what you mean until I get better knowledge in Ubuntu :) | 10:10 |
| bekks | msodrew: Do you mind to pastebin the entire output and provide the URL? | 10:11 |

| bekks | msodrew: So did you read the post with the patch for 3.16, in the link you provided? | 10:19 |
| msodrew | that patch is for open-vmware-tools | 10:19 |
| msodrew | i tried to get that via git after uninstalling the official vmware-tools | 10:20 |
| msodrew | there's not much documentation on the sourceforge project page | 10:20 |
| msodrew | and then i just decided screw it.. i should probably install the LTS version @ 32-bit and save myself some hours (or days) | 10:20 |
| msodrew | unless you have a magic solution, bekks ;) | 10:20 |
| bekks | msodrew: USe the 64bit 14.04 :) | 10:20 |
| msodrew | bekks: does that have an older kernel? | 10:21 |
| msodrew | pre 3.16? | 10:21 |
| bekks | msodrew: 3.13 | 10:21 |

| Squall5668 | cpt: I can recall that error on a virtual machine only. It did nothing really and you could safely ignore it | 10:30 |
| cpt | squall5668 so its ok? if i ignore? | 10:30 |
| Squall5668 | cpt: Ofcourse if you are on a physical install then disregard | 10:30 |
| bekks | darthdeus: and whats the actual issue? | 10:31 |
| darthdeus | bekks: the issue is that I don't know how to do this | 10:32 |
| bekks | darthdeus: you dont know how to do what? | 10:32 |
| darthdeus | bekks: managing processes as described in the question in the link http://serverfault.com/questions/672228/how-should-i-manage-a-long-running-server-process-on-ubuntu | 10:32 |
| bekks | darthdeus: Yeah, whats the actual issue? | 10:32 |
| bekks | darthdeus: That post describes your end goal, but not a specific issue you are dealing with :) | 10:33 |
| darthdeus | bekks: well the specific issue is that I have a process that I want to run on the background, but I don't know how to do it in a proper way | 10:33 |
| bekks | darthdeus: Is that a third party application, or what is it? :) | 10:34 |
| genoa | bekks: Daemon is the keyword you are looking for | 10:34 |
| darthdeus | bekks: it's my own app | 10:34 |
| bekks | genoa: Nope, thats not what I am looking for ;) | 10:34 |
| darthdeus | bekks: i've only ever deployed ruby apps, where the app has daemonization built in, but this app doesn't, so i need to manage it externally | 10:34 |
| darthdeus | but I don't know if ubuntu has any builtin features that make this easier | 10:34 |
| bekks | darthdeus: So which Ubuntu release are you on? | 10:35 |
| genoa | bekks: what does this "app" do? | 10:35 |
| bekks | genoa: I dont know what his app does. | 10:35 |
| bekks | genoa: You need to ask him ;) | 10:35 |
| darthdeus | bekks: 14.04 | 10:35 |
| bekks | darthdeus: you need to create an upstart service then. | 10:35 |
| darthdeus | well it listens on a port and i forward to it through nginx as a reverse proxy, but that part is taken care of | 10:35 |
| bekks | !upstart | darthdeus | 10:35 |
| ubottu | darthdeus: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 10:35 |
| darthdeus | bekks: upstart is like /etc/init.d ? | 10:36 |
| bekks | darthdeus: No, as ubottu just said, upstart is a replacement for SYSV init. | 10:36 |
| darthdeus | hmm | 10:37 |
| genoa | bekks: who is this "he"? | 10:38 |
| bekks | genoa: "darthdeus" | 10:39 |
| darthdeus | upstart seems to be doing what I need :) thanks guys | 10:41 |
| darthdeus | wow it actually works :O | 10:47 |

| nodedfree | i won't fix this again | 11:37 |
| Squall5668 | what were you trying to do with rsync? | 11:37 |
| bekks | nodedfree: What was the command you executed? | 11:38 |
| nodedfree | rsync -ave ssh . | 11:39 |
| nodedfree | there is a dot | 11:39 |

| Bubba | problem is, ath9k driver fails to compile and I can;t see any 5GHz channel | 11:43 |
| Bubba | my bad | 11:43 |
| Bubba | am running 14.10 Utopic and tried to recomile ath9k driver from compat drivers, but still fails to compile - idk enough to find out why | 11:45 |
| k1l_ | is this a known issue with your card? what card is it? why does the compile fail? what exact messages do you get? | 11:45 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: details matter "my car is broken" will not help the mechanic find whats wrong, too :) | 11:45 |
| Bubba | there's lots of problems with Ubuntu and ath9k - reg dom setting blocking 5GHz channels - tried lots of workarounds using CRDA (one of which is to recompile the drivers using compat drivers) but none seem to work | 11:46 |
| bekks | Bubba: "lots of problems" and "none seem to work" are just meaningless generic statements | 11:47 |
| Bubba | wow poeple full of attitude today | 11:49 |
| daftykins | looks fine to me, you're reading them wrong. | 11:50 |

| daftykins | we only care about current supported releases :) | 11:50 |

| k1l_ | Bubba: see if "linux-generic" is installed | 12:12 |
| k1l_ | with "sudo apt-get install linux-generic | 12:12 |

| MagePsycho | mysqldump: Got errno 32 on write | 12:16 |
| bekks | MagePsycho: So fix your permissions, and please do not crosspost. | 12:16 |
| Bubba | dpkg -k unknown option | 12:17 |
| MagePsycho | bekks: i can write any thing | 12:17 |
| bekks | MagePsycho: Obviously you cant. | 12:17 |
| MagePsycho | so it’s not related to permission i guess | 12:17 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: sorry typo: "dpkg -l |grep linux-image" | 12:17 |
| MagePsycho | bekks: context permission ;) | 12:17 |
| bekks | MagePsycho: It clearly IS a permission issue, the error states: "Permission denied". What do you think is it? :) | 12:17 |
| bekks | MagePsycho: What is "context permission"? | 12:17 |
| MagePsycho | bekks: /usr/bin/mysqldump -u $username -p$password $dbName | gzip > $backupDir/$fileName.sql.gz | 12:18 |
| barcelos | aa | 12:18 |
| bekks | MagePsycho: and you dont have permission to write that target file. | 12:18 |
| MagePsycho | bekks: is the cron command | 12:18 |
| Bubba | results here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10486004/ | 12:18 |
| MagePsycho | if i run the same command manually then everything works | 12:19 |
| MagePsycho | bekks: so wondering.. | 12:19 |
| bekks | MagePsycho: So which permissions does "/backup" have? And which user is running that cron? | 12:19 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: "sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.16.0-031600-generic" that will remove the mainline kernel. after a reboot you will be on the regular ubuntu kernel back again. | 12:19 |
| MagePsycho | bekks: makes sense.. backup has root permission and crontab is running as mager user | 12:20 |
| Bubba | ok, so purge reboot and try to recompile again? | 12:20 |
| bekks | MagePsycho: So you have a permission issue. | 12:20 |
| barcelos | k1l_: are you an ubuntu employee? | 12:20 |
| MagePsycho | bekks: Yup man | 12:20 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: i dont know if that works then, but then we removed a manually installed old kernel from august 2014 and can sort that out as a possible issue | 12:21 |
| Bubba | ok, brb after reboot | 12:21 |
| k1l_ | barcelos: no. but what is your actual ubuntu support issue? | 12:22 |
| barcelos | k1l_: none | 12:22 |
| blackjack_ | pardon me but im trying to port ubuntu touch but tripped up over this particular issue | 12:22 |
| blackjack_ | cananyone point me in the right direction? | 12:23 |
| k1l_ | blackjack_: better ask in #ubuntu-touch but keep in mind that most specialists are on weekend sparetime :) | 12:23 |
| blackjack_ | ah thanks | 12:23 |
| blackjack_ | yea I understand, I just now found the time to start porting lol | 12:24 |
| rnat | porting it to ? | 12:24 |
| blackjack_ | samsung galaxy s2 (t-mobile version) | 12:24 |
| rnat | blackjack_: have you ported touch to any device in the past? | 12:26 |
| blackjack_ | rnat, no | 12:26 |
| rnat | blackjack_: https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/start/ubuntu-for-devices/porting-new-device/ read this?? | 12:26 |
| blackjack_ | read through the whole guide before starting though, the process looked pretty straight forward enough for me to give it a shot | 12:27 |
| natus | When I shutdown my computer and when I restart it, I have always crash messages. Not because there are bugs, because Ubuntu shutdowns to quickly and maybe it doesn't wait that the applications are closed. How can I resolve my problem? | 12:27 |
| blackjack_ | yea that's exactly what im following | 12:27 |
| natus | On Windows, we can modify the reg to change the shutdown session time. In Ubuntu, is like "Shutdown" and immediately it's done and it crashes softwares that give me messages after the restart. | 12:27 |
| natus | I thought about doing a script that deletes the crash folder after the restart but I want to understand the problem here and find a better solution. | 12:27 |
| rnat | blackjack_: you must be rich to take such a huge risk on an expensive device ;) | 12:28 |
| blackjack_ | rnat, lol I got only for 100 bucks from a friend last year | 12:28 |

| blackjack_ | it's a qualcomn chipset this version | 12:31 |
| blackjack_ | the i900 is the one with the exynos | 12:31 |
| rnat | blackjack_: I see | 12:32 |

| rnat | Bubba: remove -Werror from Makefile | 12:35 |
| rnat | Bubba: is your Makefile pointing to the right directory? | 12:36 |
| Bubba | how do I check that? I just downloaded compat drivers and unzipped them | 12:36 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: did you try "linux-backports-modules" already before compiling? | 12:37 |
| Bubba | I seem to recall reading over the last month or two ath9k is included in the newer kernels so not needed? | 12:38 |
| natus | How can we change the shutdown conditions (for instance the shutdown session time) in Ubuntu? My problem: Ubuntu shutdown too quickly and it's not waiting that all applications are closed. | 12:44 |

| Bubba | teward, am being patiently (ignored) and problem is I;m trying to compile the driver and it's failing | 13:22 |
| maimster | Morning all. | 13:23 |
| Bubba | because I was told earlier to uninstall the mainline kernel | 13:23 |

| ubottu | Bubba: The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) | 13:26 |

| Bubba | idk if you guys have discovered Google yet, but it's riddled with Ubuntu users struggling with Qualcomm Atheros wifi drivers | 13:27 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: sorry but your attitude is getting more and more aggressive. people tried to help you but they lost motivation since you dont give informations but keep telling them they have a attitude when they ask for details. | 13:27 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: you did not even once tell what actual wifi card you got there. | 13:27 |
| Bubba | ok, don't mean to come across as agressive, but I think being ignored is rude | 13:28 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: and telling people about google like you did is more attitude than i saw in a week in this channel. so please dont make it more drama than it needs to be | 13:28 |
| Bubba | and I said quite a few times issue is with ath9k drivers | 13:28 |
| cfhowlett | Bubba, everyone here is a volunteer. Experts are rare. A volunteer may or may not have specific knowledge of your issue at any given time. Your patience goes a long way. Your courtesy goes even further. | 13:29 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: so you are unable to tell what card you got? | 13:29 |
| Bubba | I'm almost 50 years old, and within forst 5 minutes here was told off for asking questions (in a support channel) O.o | 13:29 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: or is it a secret? | 13:29 |
| BluesKaj | Bubba, whynot just tell those who are trying to help you what they need to know, is that too difficult for you? | 13:30 |
| jellow | Finnen: What are you trying to connect to ? Do you have access to the server. | 13:31 |
| Bubba | It's a qualcom athereos wifi card (installed in a laptop) running 14.10 Utopic - 2.4 GHz is really slow and I can;t see any 5GHz channel | 13:32 |
| k1l_ | what gives you "lspci" | 13:33 |

| === Commentator is now known as Guest33455 | ||

| Bubba | BlueSka there are 2 problems here - Eeprom setting on the Atheros card using 'default' RegDom setting and restricting the use of GHz but I can't get CRDA to override the default value + 2.4GHz runs incredibly slowly (common problem apparently) | 13:43 |

| k1l_ | Bubba: i dont see a 5ghz network there | 14:20 |
| Bubba | from the output 5GHz channel is being blocked by 'default' eeprom value and crda isn;t overriding it - hence no 5GHz wifi availble + 2.4GHz incredibly slow | 14:20 |
| Bubba | kll, if 5GHz is being blocked by 'default' eeprom setting you wont see one because that atenna will be ignored | 14:21 |
| Bubba | I can ignore slow 2.4GHz if I can fix 5GHz problem | 14:22 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: honestly: i would file a bug and talk there to the kernel/wifi guys. | 14:25 |
| Bubba | kll, as I said earlier I;ve tried to fix this problem since 12.10 - afaik there are already bugs for it, but hoped it would be fixed by 14.10 | 14:26 |
| Bubba | what I don't know is why crda override seems to be ignored | 14:27 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: well how should one know and fix it if its no filed as bug? | 14:27 |
| BluesKaj | I don't understand why 2,4Ghz is so slow ..it's not here, and there must be an underlying problem so i don't think 5Ghz will solve it | 14:28 |
| k1l_ | i am no wifi specialist. but there are some realy strange mainboard and hardware regulations from manufacturerers. so i would ask the kernel/wifi guys and if there is a known fix the describe/attach it to the bug, | 14:28 |
| neo__ | hallo | 14:29 |

| sgo11 | EriC^^, I checked history.log file and search the keyword pulseaudio. nothing there. I just installed pulseaudio. i think I need to reboot the system to see if the audio is working now or not. | 14:53 |
| EriC^^ | sgo11, ok, give it a try | 14:53 |
| sgo11 | ok. brb. need to reboot. thanks. EriC^^ | 14:53 |
| sgo11 | EriC^^, Daekdroom Installed pulseaudio and rebooted. ps -ef shows pulseaudio is running. still no sound. | 14:58 |
| EriC^^ | sgo11, is alsa installed too? | 14:58 |
| sgo11 | EriC^^, I can run alsamixer. and nothing is muted. | 14:59 |
| Bubba | kll, I have an update (possibly call it a fix) | 14:59 |
| Bubba | Quite why Google is riddled with poeple having the same issue and trying to fix 5GHz is a mystery | 14:59 |
| Bubba | according to https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/ath9k the Qualcomm Atheros card is single band only supporting 2.4GHz | 15:00 |
| sgo11 | EriC^^, worked now. I pressed the volumn up button on the keyboard. | 15:00 |
| Bubba | AR9565 | 15:00 |
| EriC^^ | sgo11, great! | 15:00 |
| sgo11 | EriC^^, I have no idea if I pressed the volume up physical button before installing pulseaudio, what will happen... | 15:01 |
| k1l_ | Bubba: well, i did not look up if that card can go 5ghz at all. you did call it 5ghz capable all the time | 15:03 |
| Bubba | Understood kll :) there is one tweak to the tale 2.4GHz running slowly | 15:03 |
| EriC^^ | sgo11, hmm | 15:04 |
| Bubba | to resolv this 'sudo gedit /etc/nsswitch.conf' and change [hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4] to read the following [hosts: files dns] | 15:04 |

| Saberu | how do i start the x server for x11 forwarding? it says no screens found | 15:34 |
| OpenTokix | Saberu: you need to install xbase-clients | 15:35 |
| Saberu | ok thanks | 15:37 |
| Saberu | does xbaseclients need to be started or configured ? i just installed it with apt get | 15:38 |
| Saberu | do i need to restart the kernel? | 15:38 |
| rasta | jah bless. do i need nscd? | 15:40 |
| rasta | I'm trying to flush dns cache but everything points to Nscd. I dont have it, should i install it? | 15:41 |
| OpenTokix | Saberu: just install on the host you are trying to x11-forward from | 15:43 |
| bijoo_ | How to install server unattended (e.g. no monitor, but have keyboard); otherwise may be known as preseeding; I have never done this, may you help me? | 15:44 |
| OpenTokix | bijoo_: It is quite complicated to boot without monitor | 15:45 |
| rasta | I'm trying to flush dns cache but everything points to Nscd. I dont have it, should i install it? or rather, how do i flush DNS cache without NSCD? | 15:45 |
| OpenTokix | bijoo_: how will you know the installation is done? | 15:45 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: I have network; I'd like to SSH. | 15:46 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: right, but how to enable that at first; I can also blindly login to it | 15:46 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: I have other server as well here; can I put the hard disk on that, install? | 15:47 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: thing is, that's Ubuntu server as well | 15:47 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: not done OS install from commandline | 15:47 |
| Charlie_ | hallo, a test or sombody can read this.. | 15:48 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: I think there may be a way through VM; any way to install server through that? | 15:48 |
| bijoo_ | Charlie_: ping pong | 15:48 |
| Charlie_ | Thx :) | 15:49 |

| pooman | Hello | 15:49 |
| pooman | I installe kde in ubuntu and now it just shows a black screen however the mouse-cursor is still visible and working | 15:49 |
| pooman | This seems to have occured after installing KDE | 15:50 |
| Saberu | Error: Can't open display: localhost:12.0 | 15:52 |
| OpenTokix | Saberu: you need to install a xserver on your windows machine | 15:52 |
| OpenTokix | Saberu: I dont know of any | 15:52 |
| OpenTokix | bijoo_: yeah, you can bootstrap from another machine | 15:53 |
| OpenTokix | bijoo_: its quite compllicated things you want to do, kind of hard to cach thru irc | 15:53 |
| OpenTokix | coach | 15:53 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: I think I figured out what I will do | 15:55 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: I'll start up VirtualBox on laptop; go through Ubuntu installation there; and mimic keyboard on faceless machine | 15:55 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: technically the options should be same | 15:55 |
| bijoo_ | OpenTokix: it would be great to get some beep feedback ;) but it's the only thing I have right now (other than trying to VM install ; and install from one serv to the other) | 15:56 |
| kexibq | test | 15:58 |
| Saberu | OpenTokix so putty by itself will not work with x11 forwarding? | 16:00 |
| Saberu | without an xserver on my local machine? | 16:00 |
| Saberu | so x11 forwarding forwards screens from the remote to the local x server ? | 16:01 |
| Saberu | then i connect putty to the local x server? | 16:01 |

| pretodor | i have a oneplus one; | 17:08 |
| pretodor | whenever I put the phone in recovery mode I can use it as a storage device; | 17:08 |
| pretodor | only then it shows up on my computer; | 17:08 |
| pretodor | that's how i transfer files from my laptop to my phone; | 17:08 |
| pretodor | i put the phone in recovery mode and voila, instant gratification; | 17:08 |
| pretodor | now it's time for my question: | 17:09 |
| pretodor | why doesn't the phone show up as an external drive when it's running normally; | 17:09 |
| TheNumb | pretodor: well, my android phone works no problem. | 17:09 |
| SchrodingersScat | idk what oneplus is, but I know my phone prefers MTP? is that the protocol? for reasons. | 17:10 |
| xangua | pretodor: please avoid using enter as a puntuation sign, also what ubuntu release are you using? | 17:10 |
| pretodor | xangua, 14.04 LTS | 17:11 |
| rnat | Exagone313: patch failregex.py and filter.py files | 17:11 |

| Exagone313 | I don't know wich is the directory of the current files to patch | 17:12 |

| philwong | I can confirm that this issue only happens when starting in the KDE environment, in "Default" it will load perfect | 17:17 |
| philwong | desktop | 17:18 |
| rnat | winterchillz: what is your boot priority | 17:19 |
| snizzo_ | philwong: plasma5 or kde4? | 17:19 |
| pretodor | TheNumb, just a sec | 17:19 |
| winterchillz | rnat: boot priority? | 17:19 |
| philwong | I just used this command | 17:19 |
| rnat | winterchillz: in BIOS | 17:19 |
| philwong | sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 17:19 |

| snizzo_ | or what version | 17:19 |
| philwong | 14.01 | 17:19 |
| TheNumb | philwong: there's no such version. | 17:20 |
| snizzo_ | TheNumb: I think he means 14.10 | 17:20 |
| TheNumb | 14.04.2 or 14.04.2 | 17:20 |
| TheNumb | ? | 17:20 |
| rnat | what exactly did you type into /etc/default/grub | 17:20 |
| TheNumb | err | 17:20 |
| TheNumb | derp | 17:20 |
| philwong | sorry 14.04 | 17:20 |
| winterchillz | rnat: could it be happening because of the boot priority of the devices? Second, let me find an example config | 17:20 |
| philwong | 14.04.2 | 17:20 |
| rnat | is it a dual boot windows/ubuntu? | 17:20 |
| rnat | blue screen sounds like windowish | 17:21 |
| danbower | hey. i'm trying to get all the packages i need in order to correctly build from .deb files. however when i do `apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)` there's no matches. | 17:21 |
| philwong | I am runnin it in vmware | 17:21 |
| philwong | It works fine with ubuntus standard environment | 17:21 |
| winterchillz | well, it's just blue background screen, there's a Win 7 though. In grub config I changed 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT' to text and uncommented the 'GRUB_TERMINAL=console' line. | 17:22 |
| philwong | its only with kde it shows a totaly black screen with only the mouse working | 17:22 |
| winterchillz | then I ran update-grub | 17:22 |
| xangua | danbower: did you run apt-get update first? what ubuntu release? are you using a kernel from official repositories? | 17:22 |

| danbower | xangua: yes i've updated. i'm on the trusty release and it seems i'm on 3.10.18. i've used crouton (https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton) to install this | 17:23 |
| danbower | it seems to be a very minimal install in-light of it running on a chrome book | 17:23 |
| TheNumb | pretodor: also, I've found this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/505932/ubuntu-14-04-mtp-error | 17:24 |
| TheNumb | Probably oneplusone is missing a udev rule. | 17:24 |
| rnat | winterchillz: it seems like the mbr has been overwritten , try windows rescue cd | 17:25 |
| winterchillz | Doh, I'll just format it tomorrow | 17:25 |
| winterchillz | bloody windows | 17:25 |
| uzvermode | exit | 17:26 |
| danbower | i've tried installing stuff with dpkg but the lack of linux headers seems to be the culprit for some things failing | 17:26 |
| rnat | no bloody grub | 17:26 |
| philwong | what is the command to reboot | 17:26 |
| philwong | sudo-apt-get reboot right? | 17:26 |
| rnat | winterchillz: grub is a tiny atom bomb | 17:26 |
| winterchillz | philwong: sudo shutdown -r 1 | 17:26 |
| Exagone313 | rnat: i've a problem with patching, the date is wrong | 17:26 |
| winterchillz | rnat: Yea, I guess you're right. No time to look for Win CD and try to rescue it, I'll just format it | 17:26 |

| rnat | Exagone313: https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/issues try raising an issue here | 17:30 |
| TheNumb | oh, crouton | 17:30 |
| danbower | 3.10.18 | 17:30 |
| TheNumb | danbower: It's most likely a customized kernel. | 17:30 |
| k1l_ | danbower: what ubuntu are you on? | 17:30 |
| TheNumb | So you won't find the headers in the repo. | 17:31 |
| GraemeLion | danbower, That's likely because the 3.10 series' long term current kernel is 3.10.70. | 17:31 |
| danbower | the install seemed to be pulling stuff from ubuntu repos | 17:31 |

| k1l_ | Guest75337: be very varefull with howtos and commands you already removed all kernels, that should have made you wake up | 17:36 |
| Guest75337 | TheNumb:k1l:http://paste.ubuntu.com/10489955/ | 17:36 |
| k1l_ | Guest75337: please show the command you used | 17:36 |
| danbower | could i just find the linux headers for my version and install or am i likely to encounter further problems? i'm aiming to get vagrant installed which requires virtualbox | 17:37 |
| k1l_ | Guest75337: so is sdb1 the ubuntu partition on the harddisk? | 17:37 |
| === khisanth_ is now known as Khisanth | ||
| TheNumb | Guest75337: please include sudo fdisk -l | 17:37 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb | 17:37 |
| TheNumb | should be enough | 17:37 |
| rnat | Exagone313: maybe it has something to do with "host" | 17:38 |
| Guest75337 | TheNumb: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10489963/ | 17:38 |
| k1l_ | Guest75337: so you know about your setup that you installed? | 17:39 |
| Guest75337 | k1l: dvdrom | 17:39 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: /dev/sdb1 is only 243M big. | 17:39 |
| TheNumb | It can't be your root filesystem. | 17:39 |
| k1l_ | Guest75337: do you have your ubuntu install encrypted? | 17:39 |
| k1l_ | or why do you have a seperated /boot partition? (if sdb1 is /boot) | 17:40 |
| Guest75337 | k1l:TheNumb: I've booted from cdrom, it doesn't show my hard disk at all | 17:40 |
| k1l_ | Guest75337: see my other questions: what sort of install is that? | 17:40 |
| Guest75337 | k1l_: not sure to be honest. I'm newbie to ubuntu, I didn't install it, just trying to recover it | 17:41 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: umount /dev/sdb1 and try mounting /dev/sdb3 instead | 17:42 |
| Guest75337 | k1l_ basically I had ubuntu 14.10 and my brother accidentally removed all the kernels so I booted through the ubuntu 14.10 iso file on cd | 17:42 |

| philwong | and it worked, why the heck does it not work anymore | 17:43 |
| Guest75337 | TheNumb: mount: special device /dev/sdb3 does not exist | 17:44 |
| === r3kt is now known as alpha | ||
| k1l_ | Guest75337: looks like you got a seperate /boot partition. so unmount sdb1 and mount sdb5 instead | 17:44 |
| TheNumb | err /dev/sdb5 | 17:44 |
| TheNumb | righto | 17:44 |
| winterchillz | philwong: apt-get is a package manager and has nothing to do with rebooting the system. Using 'sudo shutdown -r now' will reboot your system immediately | 17:44 |
| mguy | philwong: you used it to restart what? whole computer? a certain process? | 17:44 |
| philwong | the whol thing | 17:45 |
| philwong | it would reboot | 17:45 |
| Guest75337 | k1l:TheNumb: mount: unknown filesystem type 'crypto_LUKS' | 17:45 |
| mguy | philwong: you sure you weren't using sudo /sbin/shutdown -r now :) | 17:45 |
| TheNumb | hah | 17:45 |
| philwong | 100% sure | 17:45 |
| TheNumb | so it's encrypted | 17:45 |
| k1l_ | Guest75337: ok, so its a encyrpted install (that explaines why sdb1 is the /boot partition) | 17:45 |
| Guest75337 | k1l_: ok, what now? | 17:46 |
| k1l_ | Guest75337: but i am not aware of that sort of setup. so i cant help there | 17:46 |
| Guest75337 | k1l_: thank you anyway :) | 17:46 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: try sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb5 | 17:47 |
| TheNumb | err | 17:47 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: try sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb5 ubuntu_root | 17:47 |
| Guest75337 | TheNumb: did that, it asked the password, I typed that | 17:49 |
| Guest75337 | TheNumb: now on the left side of the screen ir shows 996 GB Volume | 17:49 |
| TheNumb | yup | 17:50 |
| TheNumb | you should be able to mount the volume now | 17:50 |
| Guest75337 | TheNumb: on sbd5? | 17:50 |
| TheNumb | no | 17:50 |
| TheNumb | see if there's /dev/mapper/ubuntu_root | 17:50 |
| SchizoChino | hola | 17:51 |
| Guest75337 | TheNumb: how to check that? | 17:51 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: try mounting it? | 17:52 |
| TheNumb | mount /dev/mapper/ubuntu_root /mnt | 17:52 |
| Guest75337 | TheNumb: mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member' | 17:52 |
| TheNumb | ah right | 17:53 |
| TheNumb | lvm | 17:53 |
| derrzzaa | anyone recommend a usb soundcard? | 17:53 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: just click the icon | 17:53 |
| TheNumb | see where it gets mounted | 17:53 |
| TheNumb | and follow the tutorial from there | 17:54 |
| k1l_ | and think of mounting the /boot partition into that | 17:54 |
| TheNumb | that too | 17:54 |
| TheNumb | :P | 17:54 |
| TheNumb | Almost forgot about that one | 17:54 |
| TheNumb | ^^ | 17:54 |
| Guest75337 | how can I know where it gets mounted? | 17:55 |
| Guest75337 | sorry for dumb questions though | 17:55 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: type in "mount" in the terminal | 17:55 |

| TheNumb | Guest75337: do that now: "cd /media/ubuntu/e1784e0c-eacf-49ed-8873-c0ae2f1a638d; mount /dev/sdb1 boot" | 17:57 |
| TheNumb | copy&paste should do ;p | 17:57 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: now please pastebin the output of "mount". | 17:58 |
| Guest75337 | mount: only root can do that | 17:58 |
| Guest75337 | :D | 17:58 |
| TheNumb | as root | 17:58 |
| TheNumb | sudo mount /dev/sdb1 boot | 17:59 |
| Guest75337 | mount said everything is already mounted | 18:01 |
| Guest75337 | when I entered in root | 18:01 |
| Guest75337 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10490284/ | 18:01 |
| TheNumb | ugh | 18:01 |
| TheNumb | sudo umount /mnt/boot | 18:02 |

| TheNumb | ... | 18:02 |
| Guest75337 | :D | 18:02 |
| TheNumb | read the instructions | 18:02 |
| TheNumb | or fix the problem yourself | 18:02 |
| k1l_ | Guest75337: if you want your data back you should be more carefull | 18:02 |
| TheNumb | You've got two choices. | 18:02 |
| Guest75337 | it opened a folder after I unmounted the /mnt/boot | 18:03 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: just to be sure umount /dev/sdb1 | 18:04 |
| Guest75337 | TheNumb: thank you. Which partition now I should use? | 18:04 |
| TheNumb | and mount in again while you're inside /media/ubuntu/e1784e0c-eacf-49ed-8873-c0ae2f1a638d | 18:04 |
| TheNumb | it* | 18:05 |
| TheNumb | Guest75337: can you pastebin "mount" again? | 18:05 |
| Guest75337 | there's nothing to pastebin | 18:05 |
| TheNumb | sudo mount | 18:06 |

| Guest75337 | done | 18:08 |
| TheNumb | follow the tutorial from now on | 18:08 |

Which one is best,and could actually show my GPU info ? | 18:36 |
| twiler | I guess not... I am so sorry guys, I really don't think Ubuntu is for me, since I can't seem to every get anything right.

| ioria | twiler: why don't you build itfromsource ? | 18:42 |
| bekks | twiler: And noone learned everything withing a week and half. | 18:42 |

| bekks | winterchillz: The same applies for other OS. | 18:43 |

| k1l_ | twiler: did you read the error messages you posted in the pastebin? do you understand them? | 18:48 |
| Codmadnesspro | So i can use hulu | 18:48 |
| ConanDaCimmerian | are there any adverse side effects of addign 'acpi=off apm=off' to the grub default entry? (This is for a headless server that is randomly dropping from the network) | 18:49 |

| bekks | ConanDaCimmerian: Yes, you will not be able to use ACPI features. | 18:49 |
| ConanDaCimmerian | Is that an issue? or I just want a server that doesnt drop off my network lol. Im not to worried about power management yet | 18:50 |
| Codmadnesspro | Since I can't use a vpn on the ps3 I need a proxy server setup | 18:51 |
| bekks | ConanDaCimmerian: And do you know its related to ACPI, when it drops networking? | 18:51 |
| ConanDaCimmerian | Not at all | 18:51 |
| ConanDaCimmerian | my guess is it goes to sleep, but it is headless, so im not 100% sure | 18:51 |

| Mr_Hales | Hello. | 19:24 |
| twiler | Hey guys, does anyone here use a ps2 emulator that would be willing to walk me through setting it up? | 19:25 |
| twiler | I have downloaded the files, but, sadly I cannot seem to run it! | 19:26 |
| twiler | Hello, Mr_Hales, what's up? | 19:27 |
| Mr_Hales | I am thinking about getting a pair of HP Pavilion 23xt's for my kids as a decent, entry-level computer. The problem I am having is that, according to Ubuntu.com, these computers come pre-installed with Ubuntu in some regions of which the United States is apparently not one. This pre-install is evidentally a special mix of Ubuntu developed by HP but I can't locate the image for that version of Ubuntu and HP support is less than he | 19:27 |
| Mr_Hales | lpful. Refers to installing Ubuntu as a downgrade, for instance. | 19:27 |
| Mr_Hales | Hi, twiler. | 19:27 |
| Mr_Hales | Anybody know where I might be able to get my hands on the image HP uses for the Pavilion 23? | 19:27 |
| Mr_Hales | I am worried that a vanilla install may not work out of the box, as it were. | 19:28 |
| cfhowlett | Mr_Hales, gotta ask HP but the image may not be so exclusively customized | 19:28 |
| cfhowlett | Mr_Hales, for instance, I just bought a precision dell m3800 and with UBUNTU oem. I installed ubuntustudio, added the nvidia driver and everything works fine | 19:29 |
| twiler | LOL, dude, if they come pre-installed with windows 8 (or 8.1), it invovles entering the bios and changing the boot sequence, and altering spmething called the EEFI, which is a pain in the butt! | 19:29 |
| wlodpolm | ubuntu works with eufi | 19:29 |
| twiler | Windows 8 uses ASICs to assist it in booting up. | 19:29 |
| twiler | I know that, wlodpolm, I'm running ubuntu on a toshiba windows 8 laptop right now. | 19:30 |
| ozbrk | hi guys I need help with firefox in ubuntu accutaly. My facebook experience is just hell with that browser firefox is really slow even if I tried to disable plugins what should I do ( Google chrome doesn't rendering correctly and opera has the same problem either ) | 19:30 |
| Mr_Hales | I don't mind the idea of exploring UEFI. Never done so before but I don't imagine it can be too terribly difficult. | 19:30 |
| twiler | I'm just lettin Mr_Hales know that its' a pain in the a$$ | 19:30 |
| Mr_Hales | What's EEFI? | 19:30 |
| cfhowlett | Mr_Hales, for sanity sake, spend some time tracking down the ubuntu/linux product manager at HP. | 19:31 |
| cfhowlett | !uefi | Mr_Hales | 19:31 |
| ubottu | Mr_Hales: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 19:31 |
| twiler | It's a windwS 8 THING, dude: | 19:32 |
| twiler | http://anewdomain.net/2013/07/23/windows-8-safe-secure-boot-and-eufi-deep-dive-how-it-works/ | 19:32 |
| DJones | twiler: UEFI dual boot for me was simple, go into bios, disable secure boot, install Ubuntu alongside windows, nothing else to do | 19:32 |
| twiler | Check that out, and then you'll understand what I'm talking about! | 19:32 |
| twiler | Yeah, Djones, it's not very complicated, it's just a littel bit different than it used to be, is all | 19:33 |
| wlodpolm | i didn't even have to go in my bios of course i immediately made a restore image of win8 then wiped and installed linux | 19:33 |
| EriC^^ | twiler, uefi isn't hard or anything, it's just that some manufacturers make it very hard to install non-windows os as the primary os | 19:33 |

| EriC^^ | winterchillz, auth.log | 19:38 |
| winterchillz | thank you EriC^^ | 19:38 |
| ioria | syslog ? | 19:38 |
| twiler | Awesome, dude, EriC^^, so as long as your screen name appear somewhere in the text, it alerts you! Now we hve to see if it works on multiple people, Tinkanh, and winterchillz! Does this nessaqge appear red to you guys as well. | 19:39 |
| ikonia | twiler: enough | 19:39 |
| ikonia | twiler: this channel is not for you to test your IRC client - people use different clients so will see different things, | 19:39 |
| winterchillz | ioria: the sudo actions are within auth.log, I failed to see them within syslog, thanks though | 19:40 |
| twiler | ikonia: I don't particularly care about that. No one is being bothered by my testing it out, except you, who apparently just sit there and wait for somebody to commit some arbitrary infraction so that you may "scold" or "discipline" them, ok? | 19:41 |
| ikonia | twiler: please don't do it and there will be no problem. Thanks. | 19:41 |
| twiler | So, can anyone help me with installing an emulator for PS2? | 19:42 |
| ikonia | you want to install a PS2 emmulator on ubuntu ? | 19:42 |
| twiler | ikonia: Roger that. 10-4. | 19:42 |
| twiler | Yeah, ikonia, why> | 19:42 |
| twiler | Is that gonna be difficult? | 19:42 |
| ikonia | there are a couple in the repos, I know they have various experiences for different people | 19:43 |
| ikonia | eg: they are game specific how well they work | 19:43 |
| ikonia | have a look in the package manager and see which ones are availble first | 19:43 |
| ikonia | I think there are 2 from memory | 19:43 |
| Mr_Hales | From what I am seeing, and I could be mistaken, installing Ubuntu actually looks pretty straightforward. Turn off Secure Boot, change boot order I'm sure so I can boot from the install DVD. Turn off FastBoot and SRT and the rest is fairly automagic from what I can see. Has anyone here installed vanilla Ubuntu on any of the HP All-in-Ones lately and could provide further information about gotchas I should be aware of? | 19:43 |
| css | twiler, I am bothered too by you peace of shit. | 19:44 |
| twiler | Ok, ikonia, could you help me install them, or point ne to someone who can? | 19:44 |
| ikonia | css: that is unacceptable | 19:44 |
| cfhowlett | css, no need for profanity. stop. | 19:44 |
| ikonia | css: pleae do not name call or use bad langage in here | 19:44 |
| twiler | css: what?? | 19:44 |
| ikonia | twiler: ignore him - it won't happen again | 19:44 |
| twiler | ok. | 19:44 |
| ikonia | twiler: open the package manager and search for PS2 - see what packages are offered | 19:45 |
| Mr_Hales | I am actually botherd more about the misspelling of piece. | 19:45 |
| Mr_Hales | bothered* | 19:45 |
| winterchillz | let's just drop it | 19:45 |
| twiler | How do you know it won't happen again? | 19:45 |
| ikonia | twiler: focus on your question please, | 19:45 |
| ikonia | he's left the channel | 19:45 |
| twiler | ok... | 19:45 |
| twiler | I apologize.. I just got my feelings hurt, is all. | 19:45 |
| twiler | Like, why would he say that to me? | 19:46 |
| TPoJ | twiler: PCSX2 but I have never used it http://www.noobslab.com/2013/01/install-ps2-emulator-in-ubuntu.html | 19:46 |
| ikonia | twiler: ignore it please | 19:46 |
| twiler | What did I do to him? | 19:46 |
| ikonia | twiler: IGNORE IT, some people just want to cause trouble | 19:46 |
| twiler | TPoJ, thanks for the advice | 19:47 |
| winterchillz | twiler: focus on what ikonia & TPoJ are saying | 19:47 |
| twiler | So, what is the best one? | 19:47 |
| Mr_Hales | I plan on having my kids do all of the installation themselves. It will be a good experience for them and I think it will increase their confidence with computers knowing that, no matter what they do to the system, they can simply reinstall the operating system if it comes to that. Other than the guide on UEFI I am currently reading, is there any advice about HP's version where I might need more specific instructions? | 19:47 |
| arcsky | do you guys use ? https://fixubuntu.com/ | 19:47 |
| ikonia | twiler: personally I don't think any are good | 19:47 |
| twiler | Would you guys recmmend? | 19:47 |
| ikonia | arcsky: no, not at all | 19:47 |
| twiler | Really? | 19:47 |
| ikonia | arcsky: it's a nonsense website, | 19:48 |
| twiler | Why not, ikonia? | 19:48 |
| ikonia | twiler: I think they are poor and have lots of problems and variations depending on games/hardware | 19:48 |
| EriC^^ | Mr_Hales, i've no idea about installing on the all-in-ones, but i've an hp laptop and i've seen a few others where after you install ubuntu you will still boot to windows directly, you'll have to press esc and choose boot options and select ubuntu | 19:48 |
| twiler | oh ok, well despite that, could you still walk me through installng one? | 19:49 |
| Mr_Hales | I won't be dual-booting. I have religious issues with Microsoft. | 19:49 |
| ikonia | twiler: a.) check in the package manager b.) read the link you where given | 19:49 |
| ikonia | twiler: do you know how to use the package manager ? | 19:49 |
| EriC^^ | Mr_Hales, the reason is that the bios is hard coded to only boot windows efi files, so what you'll need to do if that happens is rename the grub efi files ( shimx64.efi ) as the windows efi file and delete the entry from the efibootmgr | 19:49 |
| twiler | ikonia, I'd greetly appreciate any help you provide me! | 19:49 |
| EriC^^ | Mr_Hales, in that case, ignore the above | 19:49 |
| twiler | No, I don't ikonia | 19:49 |
| ikonia | twiler: do you know how to use the package manager ? | 19:49 |
| ikonia | twiler: ok, https://help.ubuntu.com I suggest you read through this and learn the basics of how to use the ubuntu system | 19:50 |
| ikonia | twiler: that link includes how to use the package manager to install software | 19:50 |
| twiler | ikonia, I've never used it before, to the best of my recollection, which, I admit isn't that great! | 19:50 |
| Mr_Hales | So the renaming info I don't need then, yes? | 19:50 |
| EriC^^ | Mr_Hales, if it doesn't boot, which is highly unlikely, it could be cause some uefi need efi/Boot/bootx64.efi to be present, it won't come to that though, i dont think | 19:50 |
| twiler | OK, ikonia ,thanks | 19:50 |
| Mr_Hales | Okay, great. Thanks! | 19:51 |
| twiler | I am reading it right now! | 19:51 |
| Mr_Hales | Bye, all. :-) | 19:52 |
| twiler | Does it include things like why certain files are "executable" just like in windows, and why certain other ones can only be started by "cd\ "-ing into their directory, followed by ./program_name?? | 19:52 |
| ikonia | twiler: rad it | 19:52 |
| arcsky | ikonia: what is that about? | 19:52 |
| ikonia | read | 19:53 |
| twiler | Later on, Mr_Hales! | 19:53 |
| ikonia | arcsky: it's nonsense | 19:53 |
| twiler | Yes, ikonia, what is that crap about restoring your privacy no arcsky's post? | 19:53 |
| ikonia | twiler: read the link I've given you | 19:54 |
| arcsky | ikonia: hehe ok | 19:54 |
| ikonia | twiler: ignore the stupid link | 19:54 |
| twiler | I don't want peeple being able to spy on me! | 19:54 |
| ikonia | twiler: they can't | 19:54 |
| twiler | OK, but, ikonia, how do you know that it's bull$hit? | 19:54 |
| ikonia | twiler: tone down the languge, there is no need for it | 19:55 |

| mcaustin1 | Can someone help me? | 19:59 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, with? | 19:59 |
| mcaustin1 | Im trying to install Ubuntu onto a toshiba laptop and it wont install | 19:59 |
| mcaustin1 | I click install and the screen just goes dark | 20:00 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, did you checksum the iso? | 20:00 |
| mcaustin1 | Checksum? | 20:00 |
| bazhang | !md5 | 20:01 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 20:01 |
| twiler | ikonia: Do you forgive me? bazhang: it is ok to apologize to someone here, dude it's totally appropriate to do so, and doesn't / shouldn't warrant an invitation to an entirely different room just to say "Im sorry", dude, ok? And, while I'm at it, you need to chill out and stop being so strict about whether or not something qualifies as a "social conversation", dude, ok? Jut chill out, and relax a little bit, boss, I'm not hurting anyone | 20:04 |
| twiler | or anything here. | 20:04 |
| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, I checked and the checksum thing is the same | 20:10 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, you could try booting using nomodeset , who knows | 20:11 |
| === kde is now known as Guest75492 | ||
| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, I dont know much about this can you private message me and help me | 20:12 |
| bazhang | !nomodeset | 20:12 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 20:12 |
| bazhang | mcaustin1, ^ | 20:13 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, hold shift when the pc boots and if you get a screen with a menu press f6 and choose nomodeset , if you get a purple screen called grub follow the above ^ | 20:13 |
| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, when I boot up it is just a black and white screen with 4 options, Try Ubuntu, Install Ubuntu, OEM Install, and check Disk | 20:18 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, try pressing f6 | 20:19 |
| mcaustin1 | @EriC^^, It does nothing | 20:19 |
| EriC^^ | is there anything at the bottom? | 20:20 |
| Thms | I have an ubuntu instance running on a Hyper-V server. So far everything works. I resize the VHD from 10 to 30Gb, but df -h still shows 10Gb. | 20:20 |
| Thms | Is that an ubuntu issue, or Hyper-V ? | 20:20 |
| locoloco | Is there a way to SSH to an Ubuntu box using only one IP - whether local or remotely? When local, I access with user@192.168.*.*. Remotely, I access it with user@69.87.*.*. How to access with only IP? | 20:20 |
| ikonia | .l | 20:21 |
| ikonia | locoloco: you can't | 20:21 |
| ikonia | they are two different networks | 20:21 |
| locoloco | ikonia: I figured as much. No way of piping the local IP to a public IP or something like that? | 20:22 |
| ikonia | locoloco: thats 2 different IP's then | 20:22 |
| meganerd | locoloco: not easily | 20:23 |
| meganerd | locoloco: why does it matter? | 20:23 |
| locoloco | ikonia: How about trying to get to the public IP when I'm on a local network? | 20:23 |
| bigbrovar | hi guys.. am trying to setup ACL for my openldap installation but am having some problems .. I would like some ldap users to be have write entries on everything under a specified ou however when I try to make modification as said user in this case dhcpuser and pykotaadmin I get an error saying insufficient access to parent | 20:23 |
| ikonia | locoloco: if you can route to it fine, but I suspect this is a home setup, so you won't be able to | 20:24 |
| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, It does nothing | 20:24 |
| bigbrovar | here is my olcAccess.ldiff http://paste.ubuntu.com/10484117/ | 20:24 |
| locoloco | meganerd: lazy, I guess. Simply trying to find a way to access the share using only one IP. | 20:24 |
| meganerd | locoloco: that would be outside the network, the router may or (usually) has issues routing that back in. NAT is ugly | 20:24 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, is there any info at the bottom of the screen? try pressing esc too | 20:24 |
| meganerd | locoloco: I use DNS. I also use IPv6 so there is only 1 IP | 20:25 |
| meganerd | locoloco: have a look at sixxs.net | 20:25 |
| locoloco | meganerd: sixxs.net, okay, I'll take a look. Thanks! | 20:26 |
| lasko | locoloco: You could write a script t (or bash function) o check your NIC to see if you are located on the same network and if so to SSH to the RFC1918 space address, or if not then to use the external address. | 20:26 |
| === JeDaYoshi_ is now known as Guest12174 | ||
| meganerd | locoloco: unless your ISP has IPv6 natively. You would want to use that instead | 20:26 |
| NBhosting | python django | 20:26 |
| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, It says just move the arrow keys to change which entry is highlighted and also it says press enter to boot the selected OS then it has two things about e to edit the command and c for command line then press esc to return to previous menu | 20:27 |
| lasko | It wouldn't be pretty but it could work for what you want... or just use IPv6 as suggested. either Sixxs or Hurricane Electric can do that for you. | 20:27 |
| locoloco | meganard: IPv6 is out, sadly. Thanks though! | 20:27 |
| meganerd | locoloco: if this is for ssh, just create entries in your ~/.ssh/config, one for host-local and host-remote, then you just type "ssh host-local" or "ssh host-remote" | 20:27 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, ok, press e and go to the line with Linux vmlinuz ... quiet splash , and add nomodeset at the end | 20:28 |
| locoloco | lasko: great suggestion! Thanks! | 20:28 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, then press ctrl+x | 20:28 |

| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, did you press try ubuntu before? | 20:30 |
| locoloco | meganerd: I figured I could edit entries to make the connections more easily accessed but pref wanted to find a way to access it with just one IP (regardless of location). | 20:30 |

| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, try to enable secure boot | 20:38 |
| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, ok | 20:38 |
| OerHeks | twiler, normally you would browse in terminal to that location and execute it, or use the pcsx2 ppa > https://launchpad.net/~gregory-hainaut/+archive/ubuntu/pcsx2.official.ppa | 20:38 |
| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, Didnt even boot to the usb just a boot failure | 20:39 |
| twiler | OK OerHeks, so what do I type to execute it? ./Program | 20:40 |
| twiler | ?? | 20:40 |
| OerHeks | twiler, i don't know, depends on that the startprogram is, a .py script, .sh shell script? | 20:40 |

| game0 | I think I have install it | 20:44 |
| bekks | game0: Just use dnsmasq | 20:44 |
| bekks | You dont need bind for local usage. | 20:44 |
| game0 | can you tell me the steps? | 20:44 |
| dsyntax | i was gonna say if its local only i'd just edit /etc/hosts XD | 20:44 |
| game0 | cause I'm new | 20:44 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, how did you make the usb? | 20:44 |

| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, No | 20:46 |

| game0 | cause I'm getting in some program domain_name is required | 20:46 |
| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, Should I use it? | 20:46 |
| meganerd | locoloco: really the way to solve this is either with IPv6 or DNS (well DNS makes IPv6 so much nicer to work with). With DNS you want to look at split horizon. | 20:46 |
| game0 | what does that mean? | 20:46 |
| EriC^^ | mcaustin1, lili is good | 20:46 |
| mcaustin1 | EriC^^, Ok | 20:47 |
| lasko | game0: It means its looking for a domain name (FQDN) os some kind I would imagine. | 20:47 |

| JoseCaro | :) | 20:50 |
| game0 | lasko: I'm trying to test the script on ubuntu | 20:50 |
| lasko | game0: I've never used it but based on the parameters in the README -- domain_name is is a required value to install. So its looking for a FQDN. Put one in and it'll work. | 20:50 |
| lasko | Does your server have a FQDN? or are you doing everything by IP? | 20:51 |
| game0 | lasko: whats FQDN? | 20:51 |
| arvenius | fqdn said. | 20:51 |
| lasko | You might be able to hack it by just putting an entry into /etc/hosts to resolve that IP to a nonexistant domain. FQDN (fully qualified domain name) | 20:51 |
| dayten | game0: you need to pass domain_name to class alfresco | 20:51 |
| game0 | OK, I'm confused a little | 20:52 |

| dayten | you get this error from puppet ? | 20:53 |

| j1398 | Hi, does anyone know some software which can automatically paste negative text over an image? like black text on white background and White on black background. Example image: http://i.imgur.com/kYgiS6V.jpg | 21:23 |
| ztane | wonder if menuproxy is at fault | 21:24 |
| Slart | j1398: any question regarding images that starts with "is there some kind of software that can do..." ususally ends up with the answer... imagemagick =) | 21:24 |
| Slart | j1398: it's a bit of a learning curve but there is little it can't do when it comes to images | 21:25 |
| j1398 | So it's a better choice than gimp? | 21:30 |
| Slart | j1398: different goals.. imagemagick is a console app.. Gimp can do it as well but for something like putting a watermark on thousands of images or automatic handling of stuff for a webserver imagemagick might be better | 21:31 |
| Slart | j1398: this link, http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/annotating/ , has some info on adding text to images .. see if it suits your purposes | 21:32 |

| ma11 | When I use OpenVPN with Ubuntu my IPv6 address is exposed. (this doesn't happen with Windows e,g.) Any chance to stop this from happening? (d-lite connection) | 21:35 |
| === fourdragon is now known as ninedragon | ||
| ikonia | ma11: exposed where ? | 21:38 |
| j1398 | hmm can't manage to do it.. | 21:39 |
| ma11 | ikonia: services that support ipv6 communicate with my local ipv6 address. When I open a site that shows my external IPv4 and IPv6 it shows the IPv4 from OpenVPN and local IPv6 | 21:41 |
| ikonia | ma11: what sort of site ? | 21:41 |
| ikonia | ma11: you need to be specific as you're not making much sense until you do | 21:41 |
| lasko | ma11: Its likely that youen instance of OpenVPN doesn't have IPv6 support configured properly in which case your IPv6 traffic wont go across the tunnel. | 21:42 |
| lasko | your* | 21:42 |
| === Deithrian__ is now known as Deithrian | ||
| ma11 | ikonia: a site that shows your external IP addresses, like this one http://ip6tools.com/check_client.php | 21:43 |
| lasko | ma11: Do you have "proto udp6" setup in the configurations on both sides of the tunnel? | 21:44 |
| Deithrian | why /media/sf_%1 doesn't work in a config file for /media/sf_sharedfolder ? | 21:44 |
| ma11 | lasko: thank you. Do you know how I can disable IPv6 altogether? I'm afraid my provider IPv6 will still show, regardless openvpn settings | 21:44 |
| ikonia | ma11: so there are many reasons for this, 1.) you are not routing traffic down the VPN for the browser 2.) your openvpn setup is wrong so it's tunneling the internal IPv6 over ipv4, | 21:45 |
| ikonia | those are the most likley | 21:45 |
| lasko | ma11: pastebin.com/ix805vMR | 21:45 |
| lasko | ma11: http://pastebin.com/ix805vMR | 21:46 |
| ma11 | thank you lasko and ikonia | 21:46 |
| lasko | ma11: make those changes in your sysctl.conf | 21:46 |
| lasko | then you'll need to reboot or sudo sysctl -p | 21:46 |
| lasko | Honestly though, I would suggest just fixing your OpenVPN configuration because thats what it sounds like the problem is. | 21:47 |
| ma11 | lasko: this might disconnect me from the internet altogether, since I only get a IPv6 address from my provider. IPv4 is carrier grade NAT | 21:47 |
| azi` | lasko: is your nickname related to the beer? | 21:48 |
| lasko | azi`: Indeed it is. Good eye | 21:48 |
| lasko | ma11: https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/IPv6 --- Go there and make sure you have everything configured properly. That'll resolve the issue you are having (more than likely) | 21:49 |
| ma11 | lasko: thank you | 21:49 |
| lasko | azi`: Actually my name comes from two things.. I like Lasko beer, and I also am a fan of Lasko the Fan company lol | 21:49 |

| Paul2 | hi, what's the current best way to make a bootable USB stick from Windows, particularly with a writeable partitions/ability to save to the USB stick once booted from it | 23:43 |
| Giwrgaras | i see the ati x.org driver | 23:44 |
| Giwrgaras | and it is unchecked | 23:44 |
| maui | so nobody has a clue? | 23:44 |
| daftykins | Paul2: universal USB installer from pendrivelinux.com | 23:44 |
| lotuspsychje | Giwrgaras: you can try to switch and reboot | 23:44 |
| daftykins | Paul2: or from the same site, grab YUMI then you can load multiple ISOs onto the same drive :) | 23:45 |
| Paul2 | daftykins: oh yumi sounds interesting not heard of that, thanks! | 23:45 |
| daftykins | np | 23:45 |
| lotuspsychje | Paul2: or multisystem is also something like yumi | 23:45 |
| Giwrgaras | lotuspsychje: yes, i tried also the xrandr addmode solution but failed. hope this works | 23:45 |
| lotuspsychje | Giwrgaras: you can try xrandr --auto also | 23:46 |
| shurtagul | lasko, That documentation is outdated. | 23:46 |
| Giwrgaras | rebooting | 23:46 |
| Paul2 | daftykins: looks like yumi doesn't have the step 4 persistant storage option (from the screenshots) | 23:46 |
| lasko | shurtagul: lol you are right. Sorry It was in my bookmarks. Let me pull up their more recent docs | 23:46 |
| lotuspsychje | shurtagul: apt-cache search strem | 23:46 |

| bindi | and on top of that, a /dev/mapper that is 167GB.. remnants of the fakeraid. how do i get rid of it/ | 23:50 |
| lotuspsychje | !raid | bindi | 23:51 |
| ubottu | bindi: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 23:51 |

| bindi | gparted telling me this.. | 23:51 |
| nemaona | help, I'm new to ubuntu and linux. How can I make it show russian letters in terminal. Now it shows only some weird characters. | 23:52 |
| bindi | lotuspsychje: this doesnt really help | 23:52 |
| bindi | The GUI partitioner will duplicate the partition listings on the base array, these need to be set "unused" during the install. | 23:53 |
| bindi | this is from like 7 years ago | 23:53 |
| yart | nemaona: did you set up unicode characters properly? | 23:53 |
| nemaona | :( I don't know, can you please tell me some keywords so I can google properly | 23:53 |
| nemaona | I used this: locale-gen en_US.UTF-8 | 23:54 |
| bindi | alright. i fixed it, with sudo dmraid -rE | 23:54 |
| nemaona | or something similar I tried locale-gen UTF8_ru | 23:55 |
