| Kallb123 | tomreyn, bridge br0 on the host, used as the source device on the guest config. worked for weeks (months, maybe) and now caput. What kind of logs can I inspect to find the issues? | 00:00 |

| rodd` | hi does any1 have any idea how to config tiger vpn on ubuntu/ | 00:00 |
| tomreyn | Kallb123: what are you using for a storage backing store? files on the hosts' file system, lvm, something else? is there anything on your VM's syslog regarding the network or disk issues, what did you do in an attempt to resize the VM's disk? | 00:01 |
| Kallb123 | tomreyn, the guest is a 8GB img file within the host's LVM setup. the guest then has LVM set up within it too | 00:03 |
| tomreyn | cptn_drake: /dev/sdb is a (storage media) device (not a file, not a directory). this device can contain a partition table, and some partitions, and those can contain file systems. and those can contain file,s such as the ISO file you downloaded. | 00:03 |
| Kallb123 | tomreyn, I did a 'sudo qemu-img resize image.img +3GB' to attempt to extend the img. that seemed to work... | 00:04 |
| Banyakaki | hello | 00:04 |
| Banyakaki | i had xchat on ubuntu, deleted it but it still shows up in the menu bar at the top right. how do i get rid of it? | 00:05 |
| tomreyn | Banyakaki: you probably still have xchat-common installed. dpkg -l xchat\* | grep ^i | 00:06 |
| OmegaCenti | Mouse pointer is bouncing around crazily - ubuntu 14.10 - updated. mouse: Razer naga epic chroma | 00:07 |
| tomreyn | Kallb123: did you read this part in the quemu-img man page then? After using this [resize] command to grow a disk image, you must use file system and partitioning tools inside the VM to actually begin using the new space on the device. | 00:08 |
| cptn_drake | tomreyn, thanks, can i do with iso on that flash drive now "burn" it to the same flash drive using something like this: dd if=ubuntu-14.*-desktop*.iso of=/dev/sdb? | 00:08 |
| Kallb123 | tomreyn, yes, I understand that. I only got half way through, but I lost SSH access since they no longer connect to network. this is 2 VMs that no longer connect, not just the resized one. | 00:09 |
| tomreyn | cptn_drake: don't write to the same drive you're reading from, no. you could do that after copying the ISO file to a different location, though | 00:09 |
| cptn_drake | ok thanks | 00:09 |
| tomreyn | Kallb123: and you can't connect via KVM moniutoring VNC/SPICE? | 00:10 |
| tomreyn | i.e. to the VNC service the host provides | 00:11 |
| Kallb123 | tomreyn, I can get to the normal command line via virt manager | 00:11 |
| tomreyn | okay that's exactly that, so that shoudl be good enough to inspect what's up with the system | 00:11 |
| tomreyn | dmesg | less; less /var/log/syslog # etc. | 00:12 |

| Kallb123 | tomreyn, rebooting router, i'll reconnect in 2 mins | 00:19 |
| tomreyn | ok | 00:20 |
| tomreyn | Kallb123: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_and_American_keyboards#/media/File:KB_United_States-NoAltGr.svg | 00:23 |
| tomreyn | Kallb1234: ^ | 00:24 |
| Kallb1234 | tomreyn, the router reboot worked... should've tried that, sorry :( time to carry on resizing partitions... | 00:25 |
| Kallb1234 | tomreyn, thanks for the image :) | 00:25 |
| xpro256 | someone has news about the new 15.04? | 00:25 |
| tomreyn | Kallb1234: good luck with that. be sure to do as suggested previously, checking the file systems of your VMs in single user mode (recovery mode) first of all | 00:26 |
| tomreyn | hold down shift to show the grub menu (to be able to select recovery from advanced options) at boot. | 00:26 |
| bazhang | xpro256, thats in #ubuntu+1 | 00:27 |
| Kallb1234 | tomreyn, sorry, why the recovery mode? LVM can resize (extend) online right? Is it because the disk got full? | 00:27 |
| xpro256 | ok | 00:27 |
| tomreyn | Kallb1234: yes, you should make sure the root file system is clean, both before and after resizing | 00:28 |
| Kallb1234 | tomreyn, sorry, would 'sudo touch /forcefsck' then reboot do what you're wanting? | 00:30 |
| tomreyn | possibly, i'm not sure whether this still works | 00:31 |
| Kallb1234 | tomreyn, ok, I'm looking online and people say definately don't run on mounted drive. would drive be mounted if I use "Ubuntu, with linux 3.13.0-46-generic (recovery mode)"? | 00:32 |
| tomreyn | Kallb1234: talking fsck? yes, but it'll be remounted read-only so that's ok | 00:32 |
| tomreyn | recovery mode gives you a nice text mode UI with options to choose from | 00:33 |
| tomreyn | one of them is to fsck / | 00:33 |
| Kallb1234 | tomreyn, ok booting recovery now, I see the text menu, thanks :) I'll let you now in a minute | 00:34 |
| Kallb1234 | tomreyn, continuing will remout your / in read/write mode, do you wish to continue? shouldn't it stay red only? | 00:35 |
| Kwaku | tomreyn, I just flipped the lappy over. It was manufactured in 2005... | 00:35 |
| tomreyn | Kallb1234: it would need to do so if it needs to make corrections, is it saying that? | 00:36 |
| tomreyn | Kwaku: okay, that's kind if old, you should be glad it still works (despite the HDD) | 00:36 |
| Kwaku | tomreyn, It is packing 512mb ram on only one slot. Can't upgrade it if I wanted to | 00:37 |
| Kallb1234 | tomreyn, no corrections I don't think. it says finished. 18% non-contiguos on vda1 and 0.1% non-contiguous on vg-root | 00:37 |
| tomreyn | Kallb1234: good | 00:37 |
| Kallb1234 | tomreyn, should I continue normal boot of go to root shell and do the rest of resizing? | 00:38 |
| Kallb1234 | or* go to root shell | 00:39 |
| tomreyn | boot from sepoarate media | 00:39 |
| tomreyn | a live iso or similar | 00:39 |
| Kallb1234 | really? I thought lvm can extend online? | 00:39 |
| tomreyn | you'll need to repartition, then resize file systems | 00:39 |

I deleted all files on the flash drive, but when i used dd if=*.iso of=/dev/sdb it came back saying only 983 mb copied and device was out of space.

| needhelpty | Hello guys, Suspend is not working Ubuntu 14.04 when i click suspend it goes off for like a sec and then boots up to the Login screen of Ubuntu, its enabled in the BIOS "S3" sorry for being stupid | 00:55 |
| tomreyn | cptn_drake: that's probably because the iso is no larger than that. it should still have been written just fine | 00:56 |
| cptn_drake | tomreyn, the iso (cinnimin mint) is 1.5 G | 00:57 |
| treelzebub | needhelpty: i've had suspend issues before, when using the open-source nvidia display drivers. go to Additional Drivers, and see if you have an nvidia device that is not using nvidia proprietary drivers | 00:57 |
| tomreyn | cptn_drake: and /dev/sdb is really that toshiba device? | 00:58 |
| tomreyn | cptn_drake: check fdisk -l or parted | 00:58 |

| needhelpty | S3 sleep mode is booting up instantly | 00:59 |
| tomreyn | needhelpty: check dmesg output, it may have something to tell about what went wrong there. "dmesg | less", then upper case G to go to the end, scroll up/down, q to quit. | 01:00 |
| needhelpty | tomreyn: I'm really noob with Linux, what should i look for | 01:00 |
| needhelpty | thank you for reply | 01:01 |
| tomreyn | it should say somehting about acpi or those sleep states you mentioned | 01:01 |
| tomreyn | you also might want to flash your bios, it can help with such issues. | 01:02 |

| ghhofstetter | hello, i am running a dual monitor set-up... my question is does anyone know any software or workarounds to get a different background on each monitor? | 01:10 |

| needhelpty | tomreyn thanks for taking some of your time http://pastebin.com/iZZjPWtB | 01:13 |
| ghhofstetter | ok, so i am assuming once you find that image, how would you go about selecting it to fill both screen? i assume it would just automatically resize to fit one and then copy pasta onto the other | 01:13 |

| RonWhoCares | Is there an option | 01:21 |
| haza-w` | You can try packages like gimp (sudo apt-get install gimp) which is a free open-source Photoshop-like tool | 01:21 |
| christian_ | inkscape | 01:22 |
| Kwaku | inkscape is great | 01:22 |
| tomreyn | needhelpty: your bios version is the latest available, nothing to be done there. your dmesg output indicates that the kernel version you are running was unable to handle the power management (suspend) event cleanly due to an unexpected condition. that'd be a kernel bug / shortcoming in this version. you could file a bug report about it on launchpad.net (use: ubuntu-bug pm-suspend) | 01:22 |
| tomreyn | needhelpty: what i'm referring to is pastebin line 847 ff. | 01:23 |
| needhelpty | @tomreyn Thank you, i should just use "ubuntu-bug pm-suspend" in terminal to bug report | 01:24 |
| tomreyn | needhelpty: yes, but actually file your bug against the kernel instead: ubuntu-bug linux-image-3.13.0-46-generic | 01:25 |

| needhelpty | tomreyn i'll handle it with google, thanks again and sorry for taking some of your time | 01:25 |
| gshmu | hello, my Ubuntu 14.04 x64, will auto-mount at usb 3.0 after I eject my USB driver | 01:25 |

| gighertz | so I've had this problem for the past few months, ever since updating to 14.04. when I close my laptop lid the screen freezes and I have to restart the computer to get anything to work again. I tried installing proprietary nvidia drivers but it didn't help. anyone know what's wrong? | 01:27 |
| tomreyn | gshmu: you don't eject drivers. maybe you meant to say "[..] after I eject my USB drive (/device)" | 01:28 |
| haza-w` | By "the screen freezes", does the display wake up at all, gighertz? | 01:28 |
| tomreyn | gshmu: in which case i observed the same issue the other day (but have not tried to find out whether this suspect bug has been rpeviously reported) | 01:29 |
| cptn_drake | tomreyn => http://pastebin.com/f19cnYPM | 01:29 |
| gshmu | tomreyn: I eject it at USB 2.0 it's OK, but at USB 3.0 it will auto mount after eject | 01:29 |
| gighertz | haza-w thanks for responding, it wakes up to exactly the same spot it left off at but won't respond to any kind of input. I can suspend manually and everything usually works but shutting the lid breaks it | 01:29 |

| syeekick | my ts140 server transfers things to USB rather slowly, they are both usb 3 devices. Any ideas on speeding them up? I've used ubuntu on laptops and the speed was quicker than windows, although now its slower than windows. Any ideas? | 01:32 |
| haza-w` | Not sure, gighertz. There are plenty of bugs in the same genre, and I've dealt with a slightly different one in the past. | 01:32 |

| gighertz | ok haza-w', thank you. | 01:34 |
| haza-w` | gighertz: Someone with a similar bug in the past has suggested that adding "pcie_aspm=force" to the kernel boot options might solve it: http://askubuntu.com/questions/361547/ubuntu-freezes-crash-after-wake-when-upgraded-to-13-10 | 01:34 |

| haza-w` | Might not be applicable to your scenario, but worth a try perhaps | 01:35 |
| tomreyn | needhelpty: it's a good start, if more will be needed they'll ask you about it. | 01:35 |
| gr1zzlybe4r | tomreyn: it just doesn't work at all | 01:35 |
| needhelpty | Sorry for being stupid but do they really look into all bug reports and try to fix them, there most be milions of them | 01:36 |
| gighertz | I will try that haza-w thank you | 01:36 |
| tomreyn | gr1zzlybe4r: well, flash is sketchy. you could try whether it happens with a newer ubuntu releases' live cd | 01:38 |
| tomreyn | gr1zzlybe4r: another option would be to try xscreensaver instead of gnomes', *might* work (or not) | 01:40 |
| gr1zzlybe4r | tomreyn: well where are the config files for the GNOME screensaver? I was thinking that I could just write a similar script to try and stop the screen lock. | 01:40 |
| tomreyn | needhelpty: yes there are too many, and no they don't. but when you used ubuntu-bug to file your bug there's a good chance the information gathered from your system will be sufficient to match it against a previously reported and known and in-progress bug report. | 01:41 |
| tomreyn | gr1zzlybe4r: i wouldn't actually know, sorry. | 01:41 |
| gr1zzlybe4r | hmm. ok | 01:42 |
| tomreyn | gr1zzlybe4r: the script you pointed to indicated that gconftool-2 should be used to modify the configuration | 01:43 |
| tomreyn | this is an editor for gconf's configuration database | 01:44 |
| tomreyn | it's a bit like windows registry in case you're familiar with that, but the configuration is actually stored in plain text files in ~/.gconf* and ~/.config/gconf* IIRC | 01:45 |
| gr1zzlybe4r | ok well i guess that i could write a script for that then | 01:48 |
| gr1zzlybe4r | the weird thing is that flash doesn't always show up in a grep even if you're watching a flash video | 01:48 |

| Guest92144 | well not sure so i am going to try a dry run make -n to see what the header package builds different then the source package make menuconfig | 04:04 |

| Guest92144 | humm curious what is the point of the linux-headers-$(uname -r) packages when one already has the stuff all configured in /usr/include with the libraries /usr/lib , /lib , /usr/local/lib directories | 04:41 |
| Guest92144 | even if you downloaded different linux-header packages you could only uses the ones already installed with the libraries already installed in /usr/include , /usr/lib ,/lib ,..etc | 04:43 |
| Guest92144 | so what would be the point | 04:43 |
| Guest92144 | so confused about this linux header package stuff and /usr/src when one already has it in /usr/include with all its libs already.... one cann't change what is in the libs with this on would need the source package | 04:44 |
| Guest92144 | so what purpose is the header package something if the /usr/include directory gets corrupt or something | 04:45 |

| Guest92144 | what is the point of having kernel header packages? | 04:48 |
| pentium | ok , so here is the senario , i just installed ubunut on my hp dc5100 desktop | 04:48 |
| pentium | and i cant get audio , how can i find the appropriate driver | 04:48 |
| acerimmer_ | !audio | pentium | 04:49 |
| ubottu | pentium: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 04:49 |
| Guest92144 | lshw ,lspci ,lsusb | 04:49 |
| pentium | the speker is 100% working, it works in windows, though in windows i ahd to go online for the driver, windows wouldnt auto detect it , and neither would driver pack solution .... | 04:49 |
| Guest92144 | cat your /proc directory | 04:49 |
| Guest92144 | I would go with lshw | grep first | 04:50 |
| Guest92144 | the kernel headers are backwards compatible but not forward so maybe if you where working on a legacy application one would want to uses the headers for that version so he doesn't accidentlly start using newer stuff i don't know shot in the dark | 04:52 |
| pentium | ok so i tried the easy thing in settings, no luck, cracnked up master in alsa, still no luck | 04:52 |
| === Yukkii is now known as Yukkino | ||
| Guest92144 | look at what you got in dmesg for errors and look at lsmod | 04:54 |

| pentium | so my sound card is being detected correct ? | 04:55 |
| Guest92144 | I mean if i make the /usr/src/linux-headers-xxx isn't this just remaking whats in /usr/includes anyways same version same everything unless of course i get a new or older header packge but if i make it and place it in its default location won't it screw up the consistance of /lib files being used with it | 04:56 |
| Guest92144 | so unless somebody gives me a reason i am taking it to be pointless | 04:57 |
| pentium | LOL just realize ubottu is a bot | 04:57 |

| AXN | hey guys, triyng to chroot into ubuntu install from live-cd to reinstall grub, how do I mount /mnt/boot | 06:11 |
| AXN | any ideas on how to find the device name to mount /mnt/boot? | 06:11 |
| rwp | AXN, Try 'cat /proc/partitions' to get an idea of what partitions exist. | 06:12 |
| rwp | Then mount one of them. mount /dev/sda5 /mnt ; mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot ; chroot /mnt su - | 06:12 |
| al_nz1 | Grrrr | 06:13 |
| al_nz1 | I still seem to regularly get a flashing cursor when loading ubuntu 14 | 06:14 |
| al_nz1 | no key pressing seems to bring up boot menu | 06:14 |
| AXN | I've found the main file system, /dev/sda2 where all the home folder etc is | 06:15 |
| AXN | what would I look for for the boot parititon? | 06:15 |
| geirha | AXN: sudo blkid | 06:16 |
| AXN | ya i tried that | 06:17 |
| AXN | but what flag am I looking for to identify the boot partition? | 06:17 |
| === sins-_f is now known as sins- | ||
| AXN | geirha: any ideaS? | 06:18 |
| geirha | AXN: It'll likely have type ext4 otherwise, if you haven't set a label for it, there's not much to do but guess till you find it | 06:18 |
| AXN | geirha: I tried install burg last night (the grub themer), but it killed grub lol | 06:19 |
| geirha | are you sure you have a separate /boot partition at all? | 06:19 |
| AXN | geirha: I guess gparted would show that right? something would neeed to be flagged with /boot correct? | 06:19 |
| geirha | AXN: No, /boot is just an ordinary partition, if you have one at all. No special flags | 06:20 |
| gr33n7007h | AXN: sudo lsblk? | 06:21 |
| AXN | geirha: I installed ubuntu to /dev/sda, the three partitions are bios_grub, the main file system and the last one is linux-swap? | 06:22 |
| AXN | gr33n7007h: i did that but I'm not sure what im looking for to actually know which one is boot? | 06:25 |
| gr33n7007h | pastebin this: sudo lsblk -o lsblk -o NAME,KNAME,FSTYPE,MOUNTPOINT | 06:25 |
| gr33n7007h | pastebin this: sudo lsblk -o NAME,KNAME,FSTYPE,MOUNTPOINT | 06:25 |
| AXN | got a 512mb partition for bios_grub, sda2 is main file system sda3 is swap | 06:26 |
| Guest92144 | O shoot i don't know if you guys know this but now i get the reason for the System.map... file and abi-... file ones for exported functions so outside programs can call these functions like library functions. Ubuntu like 14 or the version i have uses not ELF but PE32 so it has import/export tables and works like windows thats why the 2 symbol files normally you wouldn't need it. confused the kernel is Pe32 format but the other exe | 06:26 |
| Guest92144 | are elf format | 06:26 |
| AXN | gr33n7007h: remember im booted into live-usb, im trying to chroot to reinstall grub/burg | 06:27 |
| gr33n7007h | Ah, didn't know | 06:28 |
| AXN | gr33n7007h: what you think? | 06:29 |
| geirha | AXN: so /dev/sda1 is your boot partition? | 06:29 |
| Guest92144 | seems still not need vmlinux is not there only vmlinuz-... which is not compressed either | 06:29 |

| Guest92144 | wait probably i am wrong maybe | 06:32 |
| AXN | I tried mounting it but it says file system is incorrect | 06:32 |
| AXN | or something | 06:32 |
| geirha | AXN: Then probably not. | 06:33 |
| geirha | AXN: Are you absolutely sure you created a separate boot partition when you installed? | 06:33 |
| AXN | I just selected erase partitions and install (fresh install), I selected the SSD /dev/sda, I'm not sure if it actually created one? | 06:34 |
| geirha | AXN: Then no, you don't have a boot partition | 06:34 |

| ironwave | gr33n7007h: it looks like its sopused to be in linux. | 07:09 |
| gr33n7007h | ironwave: nm-tool | 07:09 |

| aristotle2600 | cfhowlett: thanks, i only ask here because ubuntu and mint are supposed to be very similar, and they didnt seem to know in the mint channel. How much of a pita? | 07:28 |
| AXN | gr33n7007h: ill see if i can get it worked like last night otherwise oh well | 07:28 |
| gr33n7007h | AXN: you don't have to chroot to install grub from a live usb/cd | 07:29 |
| AXN | you just do | 07:29 |
| AXN | grub-install /dev/sda | 07:29 |
| AXN | ye | 07:29 |
| cfhowlett | aristotle2600, I'm no expert on AMD, but given the volume of complaints, I elected nvidia which as worked out of the box. If you have the luxury of choice, you might want to go nvidia | 07:29 |

| gr33n7007h | AlexMatteo: /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness | 07:35 |
| AlexMatteo | what do I do with that path? | 07:36 |
| gr33n7007h | AlexMatteo: cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness see what it's set at first | 07:36 |
| AlexMatteo | no such file/directory | 07:37 |
| gr33n7007h | or cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness | 07:37 |
| AlexMatteo | second one worked, gave back 12421 | 07:37 |
| aristotle2600 | cfhowlett: how bad might it be? I mean, out of the box, will it even work? If games and such requires some work to get right, I'm ok with that, because I can take my time and I don't mind. I just don't want something that may not function at all. | 07:38 |
| gr33n7007h | try setting to 12400 remember that first number though | 07:38 |
| cfhowlett | aristotle2600, as I said: no expertise or direct experience. | 07:38 |
| gr33n7007h | for dimmer light | 07:38 |
| AlexMatteo | gr33n7007h, what's the command for changing it tho? sorry for the questions, first-time linux user :) | 07:39 |
| cfhowlett | aristotle2600, note: AMD has recently begun offering more active support to their GPUS but only on the new models. | 07:39 |
| gr33n7007h | AlexMatteo: echo > 12000 cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness | 07:39 |
| aristotle2600 | cfhowlett: right, sorry, just looking for any kind of reference point | 07:39 |
| cfhowlett | aristotle2600, do a search on "amd linux graphics" for information | 07:40 |
| AlexMatteo | gr33n7007h, tried it @ 12000 and 12400, no change | 07:40 |
| gr33n7007h | AlexMatteo: try taking 2000 of | 07:41 |
| gr33n7007h | *off | 07:41 |
| AlexMatteo | nope, echo > 10000 cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness doesn't change anything | 07:41 |
| gr33n7007h | AlexMatteo: try switching to root and do it | 07:42 |
| gr33n7007h | oh AlexMatteo no cat when your echoing | 07:42 |
| AlexMatteo | oh, let's try without cat then | 07:42 |
| AlexMatteo | nope, not working, gonna add a sudo in front then | 07:43 |
| AlexMatteo | nah, sudo doesn't change it either | 07:43 |
| gr33n7007h | hmm.. try switching to root and do it | 07:43 |
| AlexMatteo | doesn't "sudo" run it as root on lubuntu? | 07:44 |
| gr33n7007h | shouldn't do sudo echo anything | 07:45 |
| AlexMatteo | hm, then how do I run it from root? | 07:45 |
| dufa | try echo 10000 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/... | 07:45 |
| aristotle2600 | cfhowlett: thanks, I will read some more on it | 07:46 |
| AlexMatteo | YES, that worked | 07:46 |
| gr33n7007h | dufa: beat me to it | 07:46 |
| dufa | I have a problem with my brightness, and change it with "echo 200 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness" | 07:46 |
| AlexMatteo | now I have to figure out how to bind that to my non-working FN keys | 07:46 |
| AlexMatteo | the only ones that don't work are the ones for brightness, can I change that somehow? | 07:47 |
| dufa | I'm not sure how to bind it to fn keys. I had them working in 12.04, but there was a regression and mine don't work in 14.04 | 07:48 |
| AlexMatteo | are you running a samsung? I know how to fix them in 14.04, but the ppa is only available up to 14.04, not the 14.10 distro I'm using | 07:49 |
| dufa | I'm running Lenovo B570 | 07:50 |
| AlexMatteo | pure ubuntu 14.04 distro? | 07:50 |
| owen1 | i noticed that my clock is not accurate so i installed ntp. do i need to restart for it to take effect? | 07:51 |
| dufa | I tried some time ago to put it in a script, and the use system setting to make a shorcut to the script, but since it needs sudo, it didn't quite work. | 07:51 |
| dufa | AlexMatteo: yes, pure 14.04 ubuntu, very vanilla. | 07:51 |
| AlexMatteo | if you're running an intel videocard, there are some custom kernels with better support | 07:52 |
| AlexMatteo | that might fix the problem | 07:52 |
| dufa | It might, but I always have terminals open anyway, so I've just become used to writing that command. It's not ideal, but at leas i know "20" is a good brightenss for a dark room, "200" for normal use, and "700" for sunny days | 07:56 |
| AlexMatteo | i'll have to remember the command I guess | 07:57 |

| rosco_y | dsc_, Thank You--that is encouraging. Do you have any links that would get me started in the right direction? | 09:12 |
| rosco_y | What do I need to do first? | 09:12 |

| Lamp | ok i will go with the software center (easier and i dont need 2 browsers) thanks | 09:20 |
| cfhowlett | AfterDarkness, then you will have to fight (and defeat) the linux safety feature which prevents you from killing windows. good luck with that. | 09:21 |

| haye | In Ubuntu, when you install a package, the OS will automatically try to find and install the programs which are required by the package | 10:23 |
| lotuspsychje | correct | 10:23 |
| Lamp | ok let's give it a try | 10:23 |
| Lamp | wow that's longer than what I expected | 10:27 |
| haye | Well that's wine :p | 10:28 |
| johng_ | Lamp: 556 mb right? | 10:29 |
| Lamp | didnt check | 10:29 |
| tonph | any one has any idea on how to solve "could not write : brokenpipe" login issue m running ubuntu 12.04.5 | 10:31 |
| johng_ | Decent speeds? | 10:31 |
| Lamp | ... just opened play on linux and got 2 messages 1st: we will help you familiarize with your environment *clicks next* 2nd message: "have fun" (really usefull xD) | 10:31 |
| Lamp | btw all i have to do is look for league of legends on the app? | 10:32 |
| haye | tonph: What have you tried? When do you get the message? | 10:32 |
| tonph | haye:I just close my netbeans n somehow might have forcefully close my terminal as I simply directly pressed shutdown button | 10:33 |
| tonph | atleast I m searching where to find the cause ofthe issue | 10:36 |
| haye | A couple of reboots doesn't solve it? | 10:36 |
| tonph | nope | 10:36 |
| haye | Can you still login? Or does it halt before the login manager | 10:37 |
| haye | ? | 10:37 |
| tonph | mtrying to upgrade n check | 10:37 |
| haye | Lamp: You can use the "install app" button i believe | 10:37 |
| geirha | tonph: This should help debug where the error message comes from: PS4='+ $BASH_SOURCE:$LINENO:' bash -xlic '' | 10:38 |
| tonph | it would be nice if we can have a message that ll directly show what broke in ubuntu .... just a thought | 10:38 |
| Lamp | haye: it's ok i already found it | 10:39 |
| Lamp | ok, now that it's installed should i restart? | 10:39 |
| haye | Just try it without :p | 10:39 |
| haye | If it doesn't work, restart | 10:40 |
| Lamp | it's updating :D | 10:40 |
| haye | Do expect that it will not run as well as it does natively on Windows | 10:41 |
| Lamp | I know | 10:41 |
| tonph | is there a way to find what activity is throwing the broken pipe msg so as icantryr | 10:42 |
| tonph | I can try reinstalling tht | 10:42 |
| Lamp | I think I'm gonna have to wait quite a while. thanks a lot (I hope it works) | 10:43 |

| stoffl | However when I'm in the terminal, sudo shutdown -h now or sudo poweroff do the trick... How can this be fixed so that I can shutdown from within gnome? | 10:44 |
| Vampire | stoffl: hit your machine with a hammer | 10:44 |
| Lamp | hum, now that i think about it, do i need an antivirus or anti malware or just using brain.exe (developer dad+mom) will be enough? | 10:45 |
| haye | You won't. Your brain will be enough | 10:46 |
| haye | And you mean ./brain :p | 10:46 |

| Flanker | Hi guys, I have servers behind a load balancer. Does anyone know how I can get the servers to identify themselves in the response headers so I can know which of the servers is returning the response? | 10:50 |
| === Faylite_ is now known as Faylite | ||
| ikonia | Flanker: depends on a lot of things | 10:51 |
| Pricey | Flanker: What servers? You just want to add an http header. | 10:51 |
| Flanker | sorry, http yes | 10:51 |
| ikonia | but what actual server technology | 10:52 |
| Pricey | Flanker: nginx, apache etc. ? | 10:52 |
| Flanker | apache | 10:52 |
| ikonia | whats the servertokens set to | 10:52 |
| Pricey | Flanker: Check out mod_headers. | 10:52 |
| Flanker | ok... | 10:53 |
| soee | how can i make file empty ? | 10:55 |
| Pricey | Flanker: The alternative is getting the load balancer to do it in one place. If HAProxy, (and if not, why not?) you could do something similar or perhaps check out the 'cookie' option. | 10:55 |
| ikonia | > file | 10:55 |
| haye | soee: or touch "filename" | 10:56 |
| EriC^^ | haye, that will only make an empty file if it doesn't exist | 10:56 |

| k1l_ | tonph: we still dont know what you did to mess up your system that way :/ | 12:16 |

| tonph | k1l_:Some log where I can dig ...? | 12:18 |
| k1l_ | /var/log | 12:18 |

| lotuspsychje | kinetic: did you change to ahci before or after install? | 12:20 |
| kinetic | lotuspsychje, before install | 12:21 |

| k1l_ | newuser789: 14.04 is the latest LTS, 14.10 is the latest release. | 12:50 |
| atlasloewenherz | faucon: root@rescue ~ # mount /dev/md0 /mnt => mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 12:50 |
| k1l_ | newuser789: its YEAR.MONTH, when month is either april or october | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | !15.04 | 12:51 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) will be the 22nd release of Ubuntu due for release in April 2015. Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1. For more info see the announcement at http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1425 | 12:51 |
| brym | 23rd april for 15.04 | 12:51 |
| newuser789 | which version to go for ? I heard new version is coming with new unity ? | 12:52 |
| faucon | atlasloewenherz: #mount -t <file sys type> /dev/md0 /mnt | 12:52 |
| atlasloewenherz | mount -t ext4 **** ? | 12:52 |
| faucon | atlasloewenherz: #mount -t ext4 /dev/md0 /mnt; try this | 12:53 |
| brym | entirely your call, newuser789 | 12:53 |
| brym | what will you be using it for? | 12:53 |
| atlasloewenherz | faucon: seem to be the wrong fs i gues i had a lvmgroup on the raid1 md0 | 12:54 |
| newuser789 | just Desktop brym | 12:54 |
| brym | 14.04 will do you fine enough then | 12:54 |
| brym | better supported for being an LTS release | 12:54 |
| asop | sudo file -s /dev/md0 # to determine what is on the device | 12:54 |
| AXN | anyone got any experience with using reFind boot loader? | 12:55 |
| brym | that said, you don't have to use unity | 12:55 |
| brym | you can grab the minimal iso and install a different desktop environment | 12:55 |
| k1l_ | newuser789: as a beginner just go with the LTS 14.04.2 release. you could upgrade to newer releases anytime soon if you think you will need to | 12:55 |
| asop | !flavors | 12:55 |
| ubottu | !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. | 12:55 |
| AXN | EriC^^: wasup u there | 12:56 |
| AXN | anyone got any experience with refind? | 12:56 |
| faucon | rosco_y: mysql -h <hostname> -u <username> -p | 12:56 |
| EriC^^ | AXN, hey yeah | 12:56 |
| EriC^^ | not me | 12:56 |
| EriC^^ | why do you want to use it? | 12:56 |
| newuser789 | If I simply install Ubuntu and other Desktop Environments than whats the difference between them ? eg. Xfce DE against full Xubuntu install | 12:57 |
| EriC^^ | newuser789, cleaner | 12:57 |
| k1l_ | newuser789: xfce is just the desktop, xubuntu includes some more standard programs like thunar filebrwoser etc | 12:57 |
| asop | newuser789, panel configuration, default settings, default applications. xubuntu-desktop installs Xubuntu, while xfce4 installs XFCE | 12:57 |
| EriC^^ | ah nevermind, i thought ubuntu then xubuntu vs xubuntu right off the bat | 12:58 |
| faucon | newuser789: choose mate | 12:59 |
| newuser789 | faucon: mate DE ? | 12:59 |
| asop | to know the difference, check the dependencies at packages.ubuntu.com or issue: apt-cache depends xfce4 | 12:59 |
| faucon | newuser789: yes | 12:59 |
| newuser789 | faucon: is it better than Ubuntu or Unity DE ? | 13:00 |
| brym | grab the 14.04 download and install it. see how you like it | 13:00 |
| faucon | newuser789: i hate unity | 13:00 |
| brym | you can always jump back in here with more questions | 13:00 |
| faucon | newuser789: but ubuntu is one of the best distros arround | 13:01 |
| k1l_ | faucon: no need that other users dont like it :) taste is different on every user. | 13:01 |
| faucon | newuser789: it is my personal opinion | 13:01 |
| faucon | newuser789: i am a keyboard guy I use lxde | 13:02 |
| asop | it is the opinion of many. unity has been quite controvrsial | 13:02 |
| === brym is now known as brym_away | ||
| newuser789 | faucon: mate is DE or something else ? | 13:02 |
| faucon | newuser789: lxde is light and configurable | 13:02 |
| faucon | newuser789: I love my RAMs so i want to fully utilize it and don't want to share it with heavy DEs | 13:04 |
| faucon | newuser789: mate is a DE | 13:04 |
| EriC^^ | newuser789, mate is like gnome 2 | 13:05 |
| faucon | k1l_: it is my personal opinion | 13:05 |
| newuser789 | ok | 13:05 |
| faucon | k1l: i am a keyboard guy I use lxde | 13:05 |
| EriC^^ | faucon, you already said that | 13:05 |
| faucon | my cat walked on the keyboard. Hahahahaha | 13:06 |
| k1l_ | faucon: you are free to use what you like. but we dont persuade users to use "my favorite desktop" in here. let the users decide what they like. | 13:06 |
| newuser789 | if I install multiple DE's and log in and switch to a different one then its a two DE's loaded or the one I'm logged in ? | 13:06 |
| k1l_ | newuser789: no | 13:07 |
| faucon | k1l_: I am not forcing any one. so chill | 13:07 |
| k1l_ | newuser789: you can choose on the login screen what desktop to load. th unused desktop ist just using the disk space. | 13:07 |
| faucon | newuser789: yes | 13:07 |
| Fuchs | well, and usually unfortunately also messing up some mimetype associations | 13:07 |
| newuser789 | k1l_: if I load one and switch to another one then what ? | 13:08 |
| newuser789 | Fuchs: explain plz | 13:08 |
| blue_demon_dog | whois blue_demon_dog | 13:09 |
| dsc_ | win 25 | 13:09 |
| EriC^^ | newuser789, i'd recommend using a vm to play with de's | 13:09 |
| EriC^^ | else it could get ugly if you install half a dozen | 13:09 |
| Fuchs | newuser789: if you install the whole desktop including applications such as texteditors or similar, chances are they associate themselves with filetypes they can open, so the "open with" menu gets a bit crowded | 13:09 |
| faucon | i second EriC^^ | 13:10 |
| newuser789 | hmm, ok | 13:10 |
| marco__ | ciao a tutti | 13:10 |
| marco__ | !list | 13:11 |
| ubottu | marco__: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». | 13:11 |
| newuser789 | so what I get is I should choose one DE and use that one permanently instead of multiple DE's | 13:11 |
| EriC^^ | newuser789, i mean install virtualbox in your main ubuntu, and then just make a vm and install de's | 13:12 |
| newuser789 | EriC^^: VM's are slow, one can't judge something inside a VM | 13:12 |
| EriC^^ | newuser789, yeah, cause if you have more than 2 de's it will get crowded, plus 2 de's pretty much sucks if you dont go through the trouble of fixing stuff, cause you'll have lets say unity with lxde notify popups and stuff like that | 13:13 |
| EriC^^ | newuser789, true but you can still get an overall feel, i liked lxde pretty well, and xubuntu is ok, i didn't like gnome at all | 13:14 |
| faucon | newuser789: just try a couple of DEs on vm and then install your favourite | 13:14 |
| EriC^^ | etc. you can get an idea of what you like | 13:14 |
| newuser789 | also, if I use Disk Encryption then its a good idea to go for a DE or just install that DE's full OS ? | 13:14 |
| Lorne | good morning :) | 13:15 |
| Lorne | ...there's no one in the "beginners" chat - so can I ask a dumb q here? | 13:15 |
| faucon | Lorne: guten mrng | 13:16 |
| faucon | go ahead | 13:16 |
| Lorne | Hi faucon ...thx.... | 13:16 |
| newuser789 | suggesting anyone to first try and then choose between linux/flavours or its DE's is pretty useless coz there are thousands of linux versions around the world ( not to mention their respective flavours and DE's) | 13:16 |
| Lorne | ...basically I'm moving over from Windows and don't understand where my physical drives are,.,,I have a smaller SSD for Apps...but want to make sure all the DATA is put onto my 1T HD...but there's no c:...or D:.... | 13:16 |
| EriC^^ | newuser789, i use unity as my main de, and play with vm's sometimes | 13:18 |
| EriC^^ | i never removed unity though | 13:18 |
| newuser789 | new people just get lost in the bombardment of linux versions, etc its scary for beginners or newcomers | 13:18 |
| k1l_ | newuser789: all ubuntu flavours share the same base system. | 13:18 |
| faucon | Lorne: which DE you are using currently? | 13:18 |
| Lorne | ubuntu 14.4...the LTE I downloaded over the weekend | 13:19 |
| === max__ is now known as Guest85546 | ||
| LangeOortjes | Lorne, Linux (and other Unix operating systems) don't use drive letters. | 13:19 |
| Lorne | yup! Got that.... Lang :) | 13:19 |
| Guest85546 | socal? | 13:19 |
| LangeOortjes | Lorne, instead a 'drive' is made available under a certain directory | 13:19 |
| Lorne | ...cool...so where? | 13:20 |
| Guest81072 | Geany.. errror: "Geany tried to access the Unix Domain socket of another instance running as " "another user.\n" "This is a fatal error and Geany will now quit." | 13:20 |
| Lorne | ...I assume my "Home" is the dir where my OS is... | 13:20 |
| LangeOortjes | Lorne, no, that's where your personal files go | 13:20 |
| k1l_ | Lorne: on linux the drives are not named c: d: e: .... but /dev/sda1 ,where a is the first drive and 1 is the first partition on that drive | 13:20 |
| k1l_ | Guest81072: dont use geany with sudo | 13:21 |
| LangeOortjes | Lorne, your home directory is usually /home/<username> which is the Linux equivalent of C:\Users\<username> | 13:21 |
| Pici | Lorne: You may want to take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview#Main_directories as well. | 13:21 |
| Guest81072 | k1l_ i dont use with sudo im login as user | 13:21 |
| Guest81072 | i cant execute it | 13:22 |
| Guest81072 | even as root | 13:22 |
| faucon | Lorne: are you using unity as your DE? | 13:22 |
| k1l_ | Guest81072: donst start stuff as root blindly. | 13:22 |
| Lorne | yes...unity...so my 2nd drive should be /bin/sdb1 ..,.right? | 13:22 |
| k1l_ | !paste | Lorne put a "sudo fdisk -l" and a "mount" into that paste service please | 13:23 |
| ubottu | Lorne put a "sudo fdisk -l" and a "mount" into that paste service please: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 13:23 |
| EriC^^ | Lorne, drive might be /dev/sdb , /dev/sdb1 would be it's first partition | 13:23 |
| Guest81072 | k1l_ its my home computer so i dont have any problem to enter as root... i ve tried because i cant run geany and have tried to uninstall and reinstall and still doesnt work | 13:24 |
| Guest81072 | rebooted and shutted down.... | 13:24 |
| k1l_ | Guest81072: its not about you are free to do what you want. its about you mess up the system and files permissions when starting stuff as root or with sudo that is not supposed to be started like that. | 13:24 |
| k1l_ | Guest81072: most errors i saw with that exact message came from using it with sudo | 13:25 |
| Lorne | ok - sorry... dev/sdb ...cool....so the drive name is unnessary? | 13:25 |
| Guest81072 | k1l_ well i tried to revert situation but seems i couldnt ... is there any solution ? | 13:26 |
| LangeOortjes | Lorne, define drive name | 13:26 |
| faucon | Lorne: go to home and if you haven't messed up your partitions during ubuntu installation you will see several drives on the left click on them one of them may be your windows partition. | 13:26 |
| EriC^^ | Lorne, can you reiterate what you're trying to do? | 13:27 |
| Lorne | I gave my drive a name "1T Hitachi"... I can see both drives fine in the Drive app... | 13:27 |
| faucon | Lorne: so you see only 2 drives your hitachi and your ssd? | 13:28 |
| Lorne | ...I'm using the webclient for chat - can soeone tell me how to easliy private msg respond :) (sorry) | 13:29 |
| k1l_ | Lorne: with a "mount" and a "sudo fdisk -l" in a paste we could know and not just guess | 13:29 |
| faucon | Lorne: please do as k1l_ says | 13:30 |
| Lorne | ok...its on a different computer in another room...will go do..hang on | 13:30 |

| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: if you make a new Ubuntu user and log in, is the browser behaviour the same? | 13:48 |
| asop | the real screens. are actually under /usr/lib/xscreensaver | 13:49 |

From a grub prompt I can see the HD's and an ls (ubuntu-root)/ shows vmlinuz.old and an initrd.img (as well as an initrd.img.old...) ls (hd0,1)/ shows a WHOLE BUNCH of vmcoreinfo-2.6......-server files as well as System.map-2.6....-server files.... Anyway, system won't boot... Help! what do I do??? | 13:51 |
| faucon | spitzi: desktop environment(DE) | 13:51 |
| Whitor | I should probably bring that to #ubuntu-server... | 13:51 |
| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: only one way to find out.... | 13:51 |
| ablest1980 | how | 13:52 |
| faucon | Whitor: backup first | 13:52 |
| Lorne | ok - one more question... I'm moving from an old win PC...to a newer box running Ubuntu - can I simply pull the C: drive out of the old box, and put it into the Ubuntu box, and set it up with VirtualBox to load the OS as-is? | 13:52 |
| ablest1980 | i deleted cookie and disabled them | 13:52 |
| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: too obvious? | 13:52 |
| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: make a new user, then log in and test | 13:53 |
| ablest1980 | not unbuntu | 13:53 |
| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: thought that would be glaringly obvious considering my question was "if you make a new Ubuntu user and log in, is the browser behaviour the same" | 13:53 |
| ablest1980 | firefox | 13:53 |
| k1l_ | Lorne: use "sudo gdisk -l" if its a gpt partition setup | 13:54 |
| faucon | Lorne: have you solved your earlier problem? | 13:54 |
| spitzi | faucon: I think it's gno,e classic | 13:54 |
| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: yes but there are settings per system user for the browser, so a new user will not ony make a vanilla profile for the user but also the desktop settings | 13:54 |
| Whitor | faucon, that doesn't help the current situation | 13:54 |
| k1l_ | Lorne: you can mount that old drive i ubuntu and use the data from it. | 13:54 |
| Lorne | faucon - yes... I think I understand files system better thx :) | 13:54 |
| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: this will tell you if the issue is with settings or the application itself. | 13:54 |
| Lorne | kll_ but can I run the win OS from it (in virtual box)? | 13:55 |
| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: its called "isolating the issue" | 13:55 |

| k1l_ | Lorne: windows is very very unflexible to be started from different hardware or virtual hardware | 13:57 |

| Lorne | kll_ yes...I was afriad of that... | 13:58 |
| k1l_ | Lorne: see if there are native linux programs that can do the job. if not see if they do work with wine. | 13:58 |
| faucon | Lorne: use wine | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Lorne: check the wine appdb for compatibility of your apps | 13:58 |
| Lorne | I thought I read that Virtual box was more reliable than wine? | 13:59 |
| faucon | in virBox you have to install windows to enjoy your win softws | 14:00 |
| Lorne | ok thx | 14:00 |
| k1l_ | Lorne: best is to see if you can get rid of that at all and use native linux programs | 14:00 |

| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: cools | 14:27 |
| anti-unix | not cool at all...... | 14:28 |
| ActionParsnip | anti-unix: how so? | 14:28 |
| gyre007 | hey all I'm struggling with sudo on 14.10 | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip | ablest1980: you can always rename ~/.mozilla (I assume you dont use Thunderbird for email) | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip | gyre007: what is the issue? | 14:29 |
| anti-unix | because it not cool | 14:29 |
| gyre007 | when I open /etc/sudoers with visudo | 14:29 |
| gyre007 | and I uncomment includedir /etc/sudoers.d | 14:30 |
| gyre007 | I'm getting a parsing error | 14:30 |
| gyre007 | I mean waaat is that | 14:30 |
| gyre007 | simple uncomment of a line present in the default sudoers file triggers parse error | 14:30 |
| gyre007 | seriously ? :-D | 14:30 |
| gyre007 | I must be missing something quintessential or something is just not right | 14:31 |
| ActionParsnip | gyre007: parse error of what? | 14:31 |
| gyre007 | >> /etc/sudoers: syntax error near line 30 <<< | 14:31 |
| gyre007 | line 30 is the includedir /etc/sudoers.d | 14:31 |
| EriC^^ | gyre007, what are you trying to do? that's a directive not a comment i think | 14:32 |
| EriC^^ | it already includes the dir | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip | gyre007: did you read the sudoers manual as the file states? | 14:32 |
| gyre007 | I might need to | 14:32 |
| gyre007 | so the comment lines must contain a space character after a hash | 14:32 |
| gyre007 | wow | 14:32 |
| momotaro1221 | hi! Youtube is not working right. no flash/video or picture showing. if i use a ninjacloak or other online proxy site works just fine. adblock doesnt work? can someone be redirecting my connection a virus or something? thanks | 14:34 |
| oddeyed | momotaro1221: have you tried in multiple browsers? i.e. chrome and firefox etc? | 14:35 |
| hpprinter100 | momotaro1221, nsa hacked you :P | 14:35 |
| rejit | momotaro1221: how is this related to ubuntu? | 14:35 |
| momotaro1221 | i use firefox | 14:35 |
| === user1111 is now known as Guest73597 | ||
| momotaro1221 | rejit: i use ubuntu | 14:35 |
| AndroUser | I have a kernel module parameters file that has write perm for root only .when i change the perm for write for normal user using chmod and echo something isee that the file size drops to zero | 14:36 |
| AndroUser | Any idea | 14:36 |
| oddeyed | momotaro1221: ubuntu doesn't have flash support any more (afaik). but see if chrome works any better. highly unlikely to be a virus on ubuntu mate. | 14:36 |
| rejit | momotaro1221: ubuntu does not fix issues that come with firefox , you should contact upstream maintainers | 14:37 |
| IceBot3000 | Adobe dropped Flash development for Linux, you can only get older releases | 14:37 |
| rejit | #firefox | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | AndroUser: is it stored in an NTFS partition? | 14:37 |
| AndroUser | No its no | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | momotaro1221: try chrome | 14:37 |
| momotaro1221 | hpprinter100: lol | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | AndroUser: is the partition it is stored in mounted read only? | 14:38 |
| AndroUser | No its not mounted RO | 14:38 |
| IceBot3000 | I don't think you should send people to #firefox when it's likely a PEBKAC issue | 14:39 |
| AndroUser | but when the param is created from the driver by default i have given write access only to the root | 14:39 |
| ActionParsnip | IceBot3000: an ID10-T error | 14:39 |
| IceBot3000 | Heh | 14:40 |
| momotaro1221 | ActionParsnip: cannot install anything on this thing anymore. i get this error: Errors were encountered while processing: linux-image-extra-3.16.0-30-generic linux-image-3.16.0-30-generic E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | momotaro1221: please pastebin the output of: lsb_release -a; uname -a; df -h | 14:41 |
| AndroUser | Once the driver is loaded I log in as root and change perm to give write access to normal users | 14:41 |
| Hounddog_ | When creating a swap using /bin/dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap.1 bs=1M count=1024 would there be an issue if the same commands to create and enable swap again would there be an issue? | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip | AndroUser: why log in as root? why not just use sudo.... | 14:42 |
| Hounddog_ | uhm that sentence is wrong | 14:42 |
| Hounddog_ | When creating a swap using /bin/dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap.1 bs=1M count=1024 would there be an issue if the same commands to create and enable swap are run again? | 14:42 |
| AndroUser | In this specific case i cannot use sudo | 14:43 |
| momotaro1221 | ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10610057/ | 14:43 |
| ntsp | Hounddog_ dd is old fashioned, fallocate is a bit faster `fallocate -l 1G /path/to/swap` | 14:43 |
| Hounddog_ | ntsp: didnt know about that one | 14:44 |
| asop | besides, dd will overwqrite the file (so don't do it if it's currently swapon'ed) while fallocate will not, AFAIK | 14:44 |
| asop | downside is that fallocate will not work on all filesytems, but it does on ext4 and btrfs at least. | 14:45 |
| Hounddog_ | my issue is just that i want to add it to ansible | 14:45 |
| AndroUser | Is there sone rule that i cannot change the default perm of a parameters file once the driver is loaded? | 14:45 |
| rejit | Hounddog_: will this help you? https://gist.github.com/rejitnatarajan/347f9862395ed627bbe5 | 14:53 |
| Hounddog_ | rejit: i am actually thinking to check first if the file is existing | 14:54 |
| Lamp | Hi, I accidentally installed facebook messenger (misclick) do you know a command to uninstall it and delete it? | 14:54 |
| zacktu | Can I query the device name of the default printer? | 14:55 |
| IceBot3000 | zacktu: Yes | 14:55 |
| zacktu | How can I query the device name of the default printer? | 14:56 |
| AndroUser | Any ideas | 14:57 |
| rejit | Hounddog_: you mean swapon -s?? | 14:59 |
| Hounddog_ | rejit: i mean to check if the swap file exits before letting dd overwrite everything* | 14:59 |
| Hounddog_ | *exists | 14:59 |
| Hounddog_ | rejit: as also mentioned earlier dd just overwrites. if ansible now just overwrites the swap while there is actually something inside you could potentially crash stuff | 15:00 |
| Alissa | How can I disable the dynamic MOTD and replace it with my own? | 15:01 |
| steve | i really want to love ubuntu but, running 14.10 on x86_64, compiz is chewing 60% cpu consistently for no apparent reason | 15:07 |
| jamestoker | Anyone having trouble with 14.10 update | 15:08 |
| steve | can anybody help me diagnose/fix this? i'm growing to like compiz but not with cpu load like this | 15:08 |
| Alissa | jamestoker: I'm not. What's your problem? | 15:08 |
| jamestoker | it reboots and i lose my wifi | 15:08 |
| Alissa | steve: (god i swear that nick is familiar..) I've actually used compwiz earlier and my computer isn't the greatest but it wasn't too much of a load problem for me. It might be something your side. | 15:09 |
| Alissa | Define "lose my wifi", jamestoker | 15:09 |
| steve | Alissa: yeah i'd like to figure out what could be causing it, but not sure where to start (compiz is a black box to me) | 15:09 |
| Alissa | If you haven't been using it for long I'd suggest a generic reinstall. | 15:10 |
| Alissa | The good ol' turn it off and on again didn't work either? | 15:10 |
| steve | Alissa: it's reproducable, this is the 3rd+ time i've installed and had the problem | 15:10 |
| Alissa | Huh. I don't know why. Computer specs, if you don't mind? | 15:10 |
| steve | Alissa: frequent reboots are not something i'm willing to do - if compiz can't stay up for a few hours, i'll have to go back to xfce | 15:10 |
| Alissa | I'm not saying fequent but many people don't even try to reboot to see if that's a problem. | 15:11 |
| jamestoker | im not able to set it up And now im re installing it and it tells me there is no operating system in stalled | 15:11 |
| steve | i7 2670QM, 32gb ram, 1.5tb ssd and nvidia :/ | 15:11 |
| Alissa | jamestoker: Reinstalling Ubuntu, right now? | 15:11 |
| jamestoker | yes on other computer | 15:11 |
| Alissa | ...yeah it definitely shouldn't take up 60% | 15:11 |
| lasdam | how can I enable keyring unlocking with or without prompt upon boot? atm I have to manually open seahorse, click unlock, and enter password (this last part is ok) | 15:12 |
| rejit | steve: lmao | 15:12 |
| steve | rejit: yeah i don't think it should struggle | 15:13 |
| steve | i'm using the proprietary nvidia driver fwiw | 15:13 |
| Alissa | And it's taking up 60% of your CPU without running anything? | 15:13 |
| steve | Alissa: well it's running chrome, a few terminals, but that's it. 50% right now. nothing's "running" in the browser etc | 15:14 |
| steve | in any sane environment i'd expect about 5-10% cpu from this | 15:14 |
| Alissa | Yeah, the browsers themselves should be monitored as a separate process. | 15:15 |
| steve | chrome's not using anything | 15:15 |
| rejit | steve: couldnt resist myself, the thought of me running it on my dual core jurassic processor | 15:15 |
| steve | rejit: this must be a bug rather than a genuine spec problem | 15:15 |
| rejit | steve: ofcourse | 15:16 |
| Alissa | Anyways, back to my problem, does anyone know how to disable the dynamic MOTD? | 15:16 |
| steve | interestingly, i kill chrome and compiz cpu goes down to 15% | 15:16 |
| Alissa | huh. | 15:16 |
| Alissa | that's weird. | 15:16 |
| steve | chrome literally had a static html page open, nothing else | 15:16 |

| IceBear | hi, i'd like to report a bug regarding ubiquity or more like a logical flaw, 'ubuntu-bug ubiquity' tells me it's not an official ubuntu package tho? how do i go about reporting? | 15:17 |
| Alissa | also is there a way to disable alt opening this stupid command window in Unity? | 15:18 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Alissa: Never tried it. Check the dconf editor maybe? | 15:18 |
| wafflejock | Alissa, check out /etc/update-motd.d/ for the scripts to modify message of the day | 15:18 |
| Alissa | wafflejock: I was thinking there'd be a better way than to remove those but if no one else can provide a better answre. | 15:19 |
| wafflejock | yeah not sure I've only messed with them a bit to customize the motd in vagrant, there might be a simpler way | 15:19 |

| EriC^^ | Alissa, you could go to keyboard shortcuts and disable it | 15:20 |
| Alissa | EriC^^: Tried. | 15:20 |
| Alissa | Didn't find anything | 15:20 |
| EriC^^ | Alissa, you'd need to set it back with ccsm if you ever wanted to get it back though | 15:20 |
| Alissa | now that I've removed everything in /etc/update-motd.d, can I just manually edit /etc/motd or would I have to add it to an update-motd.d script? | 15:20 |

| cristian_c | I own a tp-link tl-ps310u. I've configured it and I've added the printer via system-config-printer, but when I try to print, after few seconds the print is stuck | 15:21 |
| cristian_c | Any ideas? | 15:22 |
| rejit | am I missing something? shouldnt motd replacement be as simple as adding your fancy ascii shit to /etc/update-motd.d/ | 15:22 |
| Alissa | Awesome, thanks EriC^^ | 15:23 |
| EriC^^ | no problem | 15:23 |
| Alissa | rejit: Yeah, probably, but I think it having to run at random times when I can just as easily set it once is a bit obnoxious. | 15:23 |
| coffee- | hi is there a problem with vmware and ubuntu ? | 15:23 |
| deepin_ruber__ | what? | 15:23 |

| Alissa | coffee-: I used it all the time, although Unity doesn't run 100% well. | 15:25 |
| Lord_Fark_II | hi how to wayland on ubuntu | 15:25 |
| Alissa | EriC^^: Yeah, i just don't want stuff running every x minutes just to update a static motd | 15:26 |
| EriC^^ | Alissa, what do you mean? | 15:26 |
| Alissa | EriC^^: I'm having a static MOTD. Why should I still keep update-motd (which is a dynamic MOTD daemon) to update it if it won't ever change? | 15:27 |
| Lord_Fark_II | Alissa: wayland | 15:27 |
| Alissa | Lord_Fark_II: I'm not talking about your problem. I don't even know what Wayland is. | 15:27 |
| Alissa | Wait for someone to answer your question please. | 15:28 |
| EriC^^ | Alissa, are you sure update-motd always runs? | 15:28 |
| rejit | Lord_Fark_II: Wayland is not coming to ubuntu , you should look for Mir | 15:28 |
| Alissa | EriC^^: I'd assume so. | 15:29 |
| EriC^^ | Alissa, doesn't it run when somebody logs in | 15:29 |
| Alissa | Nope. Newer versions make it run on a timer. | 15:29 |
| EriC^^ | i think when somebody logs in the motd is generated by those files | 15:29 |
| EriC^^ | oh | 15:29 |
| rejit | i smell cronjob? | 15:29 |
| Alissa | Found that out after soooo much screaming. | 15:29 |
| Alissa | rejit: Actually, no. | 15:30 |
| Alissa | I checked. | 15:30 |
| EriC^^ | that seems odd | 15:30 |
| Lord_Fark_II | rejit: but intel no support mir | 15:30 |
| Alissa | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10610284/ | 15:30 |
| Alissa | That's what I'm gonna just put in 00-main | 15:30 |
| rejit | Lord_Fark_II: try fedora-rawhide if you are a developer who wants to get his hands wet with wayland and latest Gnome/KDE | 15:32 |
| rejit | Alissa: so you want it to appear with every login? | 15:33 |
| uuhimhere | so unity no support wayland | 15:34 |
| Alissa | rejit: MOTD only apperas via SSH login, I believe. | 15:35 |

| leo___ | i unplugged the device after i noticed the error | 15:42 |
| SonikkuAmerica | uuhimhere: Not from Intel. From Canonical itself. | 15:42 |
| omgitsmit | AfterDarkness_: you can install i-nex and check the GPU stats (Temp, fan speed, ect) | 15:42 |
| leo___ | i also used windows (on another pc) to do it, using the quick format option | 15:42 |

| joelwallis | Hello. How can I use an updated version of Tmux on Ubuntu? It's showing me a 1.6 version of Tmux, an outdated version that doesn't have zooming :( | 15:51 |
| SonikkuAmerica | joelwallis: Do you have 14.10 ? | 15:51 |
| EriC^^ | leo___, i guess you can always recover the data, depends on how much time and money etc. you have | 15:51 |
| leo___ | yep, that's true i guess | 15:51 |
| joelwallis | SonikkuAmerica no. its 12.04 | 15:51 |
| ActionParsnip | joelwallis: there may be a PPA. What is the output of: cat /etc/issue | 15:52 |
| === hephaestus is now known as Guest23014 | ||
| AfterDarkness_ | whenever i click on the windows key my gpu start screaming this is so annoying | 15:52 |

| sovereignentity | recuva only returned about 90% of my data even though I had not written to disk | 15:53 |
| joelwallis | ActionParsnip actually it's Elementary OS (cat /etc/issue: elementary OS Luna \n \l), but its based in Ubuntu 12.04 | 15:53 |
| EriC^^ | leo___, try photorec if you want, and specify a .txt filetype and see if it picks up stuff from the partition | 15:53 |
| bibi-23 | rejit: I'll see but I'm unsure yet, because even though the web server is really light, my application is very simple (2-3 pages), but dynamic, and for example if I use lighthttpd with php, maybe I'll have to setup php fpm and so, with the workers etc, while there is only one user for the website it seems too much for the task... | 15:53 |
| ActionParsnip | joelwallis: not supported here | 15:53 |
| ActionParsnip | joelwallis: Elementary support community is entirely separate from Ubuntu's | 15:53 |
| leo___ | i will see if it picks up anything | 15:53 |
| ActionParsnip | joelwallis: try in #elementaryos | 15:53 |
| leo___ | i'm not sure if there is actually any txt files on it | 15:53 |
| leo___ | still specify txt? | 15:54 |
| bibi-23 | I was also thinking about learning node.js, apparently we can make a simple webserver inside the script | 15:54 |
| valerosa | According to /etc/issue I have `14.04.2 LTS` but according to uname I have 3.13 kernel still. | 15:54 |
| joelwallis | ActionParsnip yeah I know, but since its Ubuntu 12.04 I though someone would know any PPA for a updated version of Tmux, since its widely used | 15:54 |
| EriC^^ | there's a couple txt options i think it just recovers any random files with text, it uses file headers to get files and not extensions i think | 15:54 |
| ActionParsnip | joelwallis: none of the "ubuntu based" distributions are supported here | 15:54 |
| asop | joelwallis, apt-cache policy tmux | 15:54 |
| rejit | Php has an inbuilt server | 15:54 |
| asop | joelwallis, paste on paste.ubuntu.com and share the link | 15:54 |
| EriC^^ | leo___, it has a bunch of options for what files to get, choose a bunch that you know are there and let it run | 15:55 |
| SonikkuAmerica | joelwallis: You can perform a release upgrade to 14.04 LTS | 15:55 |
| ActionParsnip | asop: in #elementaryos or PM plese | 15:55 |
| cfhowlett | joelwallis, er, no, elementaryOS is NOT ubuntu anything. it's elementaryOS and it has its own support options. not supported here. sorry. | 15:55 |
| leo___ | i will do that, thanks :) | 15:55 |
| valerosa | joelwallis, It's possible to break your OS by loading ubutu packages on elementary and vice versa. This isn't just a politics thing. | 15:55 |
| SonikkuAmerica | !derivatives | 15:55 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 15:55 |
| EriC^^ | leo___, no problem | 15:56 |

| === nikolov_ is now known as Dreaman | ||
| joelwallis | SonikkuAmerica ok, got it. | 15:56 |
| valerosa | Anyone know why i still have the 3.13 kernel in 14.04? It's supposed to have been upgraded to 3.16 | 15:56 |
| SonikkuAmerica | joelwallis: WHOA! If it's elementary you have to follow their schedule/ | 15:56 |
| tgm4883 | valerosa: it doesn't automatically upgrade to a new major version | 15:57 |
| ActionParsnip | valerosa: try: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 15:57 |
| asop | valerosa, 3.16 only if you installed the Hardware Enablement stack in 14.04 | 15:57 |
| valerosa | tgm4883, I see that now. Thanks. This is good news as 3.16 is broken on my hardware so I was worried about autoupdater breaking me :) | 15:58 |
| ActionParsnip | valerosa: you could apt-pin the kernel you have if there are no issues | 15:59 |
| joelwallis | asop http://paste.ubuntu.com/10610412/ | 15:59 |
| valerosa | ActionParsnip, Ah yes. Thank you. | 15:59 |
| joelwallis | the Tmux package at Elementary is taken from Ubuntu repositories | 16:00 |
| ActionParsnip | joelwallis: still doesnt make it suported here | 16:00 |
| linuxuz3r | can you rollback to ubuntu installation state? | 16:00 |
| ActionParsnip | joelwallis: Ubuntu is based on Debian, but if you ask for Ubuntu support in #debian you will be directed here | 16:00 |
| EriC^^ | linuxuz3r, nope | 16:00 |
| linuxuz3r | ok | 16:01 |
| EriC^^ | linuxuz3r, you can do that if you use lvm with snapshots, or have ubuntu in a vm | 16:01 |
| ActionParsnip | linuxuz3r: if you have snapshots in something like VMWare, or an image made in liveCD of the drive at some point, then yes | 16:01 |

| tgm4883 | philip: ping what? | 16:03 |
| valerosa | philip, Is your machine using DHCP? | 16:03 |
| ActionParsnip | philip: what are you pinging> | 16:03 |
| philip | i assign static ip to a newly install ubuntu server | 16:03 |
| philip | public ip | 16:03 |
| tgm4883 | !details | philip | 16:03 |
| ubottu | philip: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 16:03 |
| philip | my machine is dhcp | 16:03 |
| ActionParsnip | philip: ok, and is the network setup using the same subnet as the other systems on the network? | 16:03 |
| valerosa | philip, Your machine is not the server? | 16:03 |
| tgm4883 | philip: despite what you think, that isn't enough info to give anyone a clear idea about what you are doing and what hardware/systems you have | 16:04 |
| ActionParsnip | philip: can you give the addresses of the respective systems in the issue please | 16:05 |
| philip | nope. where the ubuntu server is installed is a dell lattitude | 16:05 |
| z4sk4 | how can i put a a command in the /etc/apt/apt.conf?? like name=`whoami` i need use a comand to get the name in the conf | 16:05 |
| valerosa | philip, What we were taught was: ping 127.0.0.1 to see if tcp/ip is setup. Ping yourself to see if your tcp/ip is working. Ping your gateway to see if you contact your local net. Then ping an external site to check if the router is doing its job/your gateway is right. | 16:05 |
| ActionParsnip | z4sk4: that is an alias so will go in ~/.bashrc | 16:05 |
| ActionParsnip | valerosa: nice :) | 16:06 |
| philip | i cant ping my gateway | 16:06 |
| ActionParsnip | valerosa: assuming ICMP is allowed :) | 16:06 |
| tgm4883 | ActionParsnip: I don't think he's talking about an alias | 16:06 |
| ActionParsnip | philip: can you ping 8.8.8.8 (just as a cover all) | 16:06 |
| valerosa | if you cant ping your gateway check your subnet mask | 16:06 |
| z4sk4 | ActionParsnip: yeah, but i need change the user-agent of apt, every time that i exceute it | 16:06 |
| philip | yes i can ping 8.8.8.8 | 16:06 |
| philip | okay | 16:07 |
| tgm4883 | z4sk4: why do you need to change it every time you run it? | 16:07 |
| ActionParsnip | philip: then check the IP of the systems has the first 3 numbers the same and the last one different | 16:07 |
| tgm4883 | philip: so what can't you ping? | 16:07 |
| tgm4883 | ActionParsnip: (first 3 sets of numbers) | 16:07 |
| z4sk4 | tgm4883: experiments, to see some info, depends what linux run apt to my repo | 16:07 |
| valerosa | you can ping 8.8.8.8 so you can get out onto the web. Now try to ping an external site by name. Likely it's a dns issue. | 16:07 |
| ActionParsnip | tgm4883: I'm using plain speak | 16:07 |
| tgm4883 | ActionParsnip: yes, but I read that as "Make sure the first 3 numbers match (eg. 192) and that the last one is different" | 16:08 |
| z4sk4 | tgm4883: i follow, this: http://samhassell.com/apt-cant-see-sources-try-changing-the-user-agent/ | 16:08 |
| ljmod | @ActionParsnip im on ubuntu 14.04.02 | 16:08 |
| z4sk4 | but i wanna put the result of a comand in the user-agent | 16:08 |
| valerosa | To apt-pin the kernel, it's the linux-generic* packages? | 16:09 |
| tgm4883 | z4sk4: I'm not sure it supports that. You could write a frontend script for it I suppose | 16:09 |
| philip | i still cant ping my gateway | 16:09 |
| philip | my subnet is /24 | 16:10 |
| tgm4883 | philip: can you pastebin the ouput of 'nm-tool' | 16:10 |
| R-M-J | hi all - quick question, big problem - running 14.04 LTS with one user set up during install, changed password through terminal using sudo passwd <username>, now when I try to login, I just get sent back to the login screen each time (not because password is incorrect) - this is a new one on me and I cant find any fix online. logged in as guest at | 16:10 |
| R-M-J | the moment which isn't ideal obviously | 16:10 |
| valerosa | philip, As actionparsnip says, your gateway could be refusing imcp. I#ll let him deal with it as I think he's more experienced. | 16:10 |
| tgm4883 | R-M-J: sounds like xorg is crashing. But that shouldn't be caused by a password change | 16:11 |
| philip | actionparsnip.what should i do | 16:11 |
| tgm4883 | R-M-J: I believe a look at ~/.xsession-errors is in your future | 16:11 |
| rejit | philip: paste all the details starting from ifconfig -a , nm-tool , cat /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head , sudo lshw -C network | 16:12 |

| philip | rejit is it my desktop or my server | 16:16 |
| rejit | philip: the device from which you are currently facing this issue | 16:17 |
| Dumle29 | Hmm never mind. Doing the manual mount first, unmounting, then using mount -a seems to work as it should. I'll see if it persists after a reboot. | 16:17 |

| cristian_c | Another question | 16:57 |
| cristian_c | I've converted a usa live into ,iso file via dd command | 16:58 |
| cristian_c | *usb | 16:58 |
| philip | yes am sure....because thats what am using to on this forum | 16:58 |
| TimeVirus | philip those are two different networks | 16:58 |
| cristian_c | but if I execute md5sum, hash is different | 16:58 |
| tgm4883 | philip: that isnt' a reason to be sure. You could be connected to your neighbors wifi | 16:58 |
| cristian_c | How can I check if .iso is not corrupted? | 16:59 |
| AfterDarkness | i was trying to put proprietary drivers to fix my loud gpu but then after restart there was no desktop env | 16:59 |
| cristian_c | Any ideas? | 16:59 |
| AfterDarkness | the login manager worked tho | 16:59 |
| k1l_ | AfterDarkness: does the login screen work? | 16:59 |
| teward | cristian_c: compare MD5 sums of the ISO file to the already known MD5s | 16:59 |
| teward | !md5 | 16:59 |
| 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 | 16:59 |

| k1l_ | AfterDarkness: does another user or the guest-session work? | 16:59 |
| cristian_c | teward, already done | 16:59 |
| tgm4883 | philip: can you please pastebin 'nm-tool' from your desktop? | 16:59 |

| tonph | I had a 12.04 ubuntu which crased with broken pipe, now I installed 64 bit ubuntu 14 it was working fine, but i installed ubuntu-tweaks and set sm setting like fonts. Intalled other softwares. Now restarting my OS... I cannot see anythin except my wallpaper and home folder - its torturing.. | 17:00 |
| AfterDarkness | do you know what this error mean? invalid mid mit-magic-cookie-1 | 17:00 |
| tonph | how can i get my menu and all back... any idea please do share | 17:00 |
| teward | cristian_c: if the hash of the .ISO is different then it's not the same file - likely something died in there | 17:00 |
| philip | okay. | 17:00 |
| teward | cristian_c: but make sure you're checking the MD5 sum of the correct ISO in the md5 sums | 17:00 |
| teward | (when comparing to the master list of md5 sums) | 17:00 |
| AfterDarkness | invalid mit-magic-cookie-1* | 17:01 |
| valerosa | Those could be the same network. It would depend on subnet masks. All of 192.168.x.x is private. | 17:01 |
| Phyliares | Anybody could tell me if "debconf-get-selections --installer" returns anything on a trusty (needs debconf-utils package) Please | 17:01 |
| tonph | previously ubuntu use to be too stable .. but i dnt what happens... | 17:01 |

| mcphail | tonph: ok, that's frustrating. Try changing the :0 to :0.0 or :1 or :1.0 | 17:33 |
| AfterDarkness | tonph, i think u have the same issue as mine, did u install a proprietary drivers for ur gpu? | 17:33 |
| tgm4883 | philip: no, what you said was (paraphrasing) "I can successfully ping my ubuntu server from my windows desktop on the same network, but I can also successfully ping my ubuntu server from my ubuntu desktop which resides on my home network" | 17:33 |
| tonph | AfterDarkness: yesh, I was installing truecrypt ... | 17:34 |
| tgm4883 | philip: what you apparently were trying to say was "I can successfully ping my ubuntu server from my windows desktop on the same network, however I have been unsuccessful in my attempts to ping my ubuntu server from my ubuntu desktop which resides on my home network" | 17:34 |
| tgm4883 | those two things are different | 17:34 |
| tonph | mcphail: I tried many of the natural numbers still the same error .. | 17:34 |
| AfterDarkness | is that a gpu driver? tonph | 17:35 |
| philip | yes thats wat i said | 17:36 |
| philip | so how can i ping from my ubuntu desktop | 17:36 |
| tonph | AfterDarkness: I am not sure, but looks like not a gpu driver.... amongst those which was installed | 17:36 |
| mcphail | tonph: ok, this may not work then as you sometimes need a graphical terminal open on the desktop but we'll give it a try in the terminal instead. Type "sudo apt-get install dconf-tools && dconf reset -f /org/compiz/" | 17:36 |
| tonph | AfterDarkness: I justinstall ubuntu tweaks also and set some setting like fonts etc.. | 17:36 |
| AfterDarkness | tonph, i am not an expert but i had a similar issue when i removed the driver and and renamed the ".config" folder in my home it worked | 17:36 |
| tgm4883 | philip: from where I'm sitting, it appears that everything is setup right for your server (eg. it's pingable from the internet which sounds like what you want). I'm unsure why your particular home desktop cannot ping it through. I asked all of those initial questions so I could get a better understanding of your network (which was basically required since | 17:37 |
| tgm4883 | you didn't tell anyone that you were dealing with multiple networks and just expected everyone to guess the missing info) | 17:37 |
| tgm4883 | philip: I believe this to be setup correctly https://www.lucidchart.com/invitations/accept/b7f3be55-53da-4a67-a5c6-a2bc97a298cd | 17:37 |
| tgm4883 | philip: err, I believe that is your networks correct (at least the parts we were discussing) | 17:37 |
| tonph | mcphail: Its painful, now the internet is not getting detected ..:(, let me fix that and type the command. | 17:38 |
| philip | am so sorry...its just pressure.......so any idea | 17:38 |
| mcphail | tonph: ok. I've got to go, I'm afraid, but give it a try. You can type "sudo service lightdm restart" after that to log back in to see if it has worked. | 17:39 |
| hay207 | hi guys, is there an application that displays audio spectrum from input as mic? | 17:39 |
| tgm4883 | philip: initially you had given us this pastebin which indicates that your home desktop has an ethernet port with an ip address in the 41.242.x.x range. If it still thinks that is up it may be trying to ping that address over that interface | 17:39 |
| tgm4883 | philip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10610521/ | 17:39 |
| tonph | mcphail: thnx, let me try that also | 17:39 |
| TimeVirus | I'm curious -- Why XChat and not HexChat or verse visa in Mint? | 17:39 |
| philip | wat could be the problem | 17:40 |
| mcphail | tonph: only when you have done the dconf thing above... | 17:40 |
| tonph | mcphail: k | 17:40 |
| firecat | 中文呢 | 17:40 |
| tgm4883 | philip: I just said what could be the problem. It's with your network/desktop, not with the server/organization network | 17:40 |

| octavian_ | hi | 17:53 |
| octavian_ | I installed a new driver for my raden 8000 series and now after I login I can only see ther terminal | 17:53 |
| octavian_ | I have acces to nothing | 17:53 |
| octavian_ | I can only access terminal | 17:54 |
| octavian_ | and irssi ofcourse | 17:54 |
| gr1zzlybe4r | RMJ: yeah, but I was getting a syntax error when trying to run that script after cloning it from the repo. I posted about it here: https://github.com/iye/lightsOn/issues/26 | 17:54 |
| octavian_ | How can I rever the changes and get back to the previous driver? | 17:54 |
| TimeVirus | maybe boot into recovery mode @ grub? | 17:55 |
| TimeVirus | octavian_, ^ | 17:55 |
| octavian_ | TimeVirus: yes | 17:55 |
| octavian_ | TimeVirus: tried that | 17:55 |
| TimeVirus | bah | 17:55 |
| haza-w` | $ sudo apt-get remove fglrx-* | 17:55 |
| haza-w` | ? | 17:55 |
| octavian_ | TimeVirus: grub is not meant to do that work. It os related to terminal | 17:55 |
| TimeVirus | can disable the dri ver from there perhaps | 17:56 |
| TimeVirus | driver* | 17:56 |
| haza-w` | Do you know what the package was, octavian_? | 17:56 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: only that command? | 17:56 |
| TimeVirus | in driver manager? | 17:56 |
| haza-w` | octavian_: fglrx is the ATI proprietary driver namespace iirc | 17:56 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: I don t remember | 17:56 |
| === cristian_c is now known as Guest21531 | ||
| haza-w` | so running that apt-get remove command and restarting *should* bring back your display manager with the open source drivers | 17:57 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: it was the second one | 17:57 |
| RMJ | ok so heres a question - just had to reinstall windows 7 on my wifes laptop (dual boot) and GRUB has been replaced with windows boot manager - ohw do i get it toboot back to grub again as wbm doesn't even list my ubuntu partitions | 17:57 |
| haza-w` | !grub | RMJ | 17:57 |
| ubottu | RMJ: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 17:57 |
| AfterDarkness | ochiottes, do what haza-w` said sudo apt-get purge fglrx | 17:58 |
| RMJ | sweet, thanks haza-w` | 17:58 |
| AfterDarkness | i had the same issue | 17:58 |
| === cristian__c is now known as cristian_c | ||
| haza-w` | also, there are some reports from askubuntu that running > $ sudo sh /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh < alongside removing the fglrx-* packages is helpful | 17:59 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: tried the first command and apparently did it's work. should I enter the second one sudo sh /usr...? | 18:00 |
| AfterDarkness | if u want flgrx install it from apt-get not like how i did from the amd support website | 18:00 |
| haza-w` | Yes, octavian_ | 18:00 |
| cristian_c | teward, the server has disconnected me | 18:00 |
| cristian_c | teward, have you answered to me? | 18:00 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: ok just wait here pls | 18:00 |
| haza-w` | Standing by! ;-) | 18:01 |
| kokut | Hello, what is the key combination to change the input layout from the keyboard? | 18:01 |
| RMJ | kokut - super+space I think | 18:01 |
| kokut | RMJ: i think it used to work like that but now its not working | 18:02 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: can't open /usr/share... I guess I'll jsut restart and see what happen then | 18:03 |
| haza-w` | Yup, should be fine octavian_ | 18:03 |
| kokut | RMJ: should i restart my system or something? Im working | 18:03 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: so so sudo reboot is the only option right? | 18:03 |
| RMJ | then take a look in text entry | 18:03 |
| teward | cristian_c: i don't have the scrollback of what you asked initially / last said - i also don't think i directed anything towards you since my last message either. | 18:04 |
| haza-w` | yes, octavian_ | 18:04 |
| kokut | RMJ: im on cairo dock | 18:04 |
| kokut | RMJ: k found it | 18:05 |
| ljmod | what does xubuntu 14.04 use as login screen how can i edit the login screen? | 18:05 |
| cristian_c | teward, I've asked you a question | 18:05 |
| cristian_c | teward, I don't know if you have answered to me | 18:05 |
| AfterDarkness | man i am so glad linux has tty saved my life | 18:05 |
| kokut | its a bug | 18:05 |
| kokut | im friggin bugged | 18:06 |
| teward | cristian_c: i don't have the question anymore - that's the problem - way too much scroll in this channel due to activity, and my IRC client likes to explode on me when the GUI crashes :p | 18:06 |
| teward | cristian_c: you'll have to remind me the question | 18:06 |
| cristian_c | teward, so, have I to convert the usb live again with dd? | 18:06 |
| kokut | guess rebooting is my only choice | 18:07 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: what a GOD dude!!! thank you so much. That's why I love ubuntu.. for it's comunity | 18:07 |
| haza-w` | ^.^ | 18:07 |
| teward | cristian_c: redownload the ISO, check the ISO's md5 sum, then use dd like you did before (I believe). note I don't use `dd` to write ISOs for LiveUSBs, I use the usb creator tool in the repos for Ubuntu | 18:07 |
| cristian_c | teward, lol | 18:07 |
| cortex_ | hi | 18:07 |
| cortex_ | cristian_c: hola | 18:08 |
| cristian_c | teward, but the hash in the usb is correct | 18:08 |
| cristian_c | cortex_, ola | 18:08 |
| cristian_c | teward, when I convert the usb live into .iso file, I get a different hash | 18:08 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: using that command I can experiment with the third driver I guess. There are 3 drivers | 18:08 |
| cortex_ | mmm | 18:08 |
| cortex_ | intersting | 18:09 |
| teward | cristian_c: that's outside my ability to help, I'd ask the channel your question(s) rather than me directly, sorry. | 18:09 |
| nolan_ | Hi | 18:09 |
| cristian_c | teward, ok | 18:09 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: might appear complications? | 18:09 |
| haza-w` | Which one did you try last time, octavian_ | 18:10 |
| GothSpark | hello all, I recently installed i3 and got problems setting my keybing to control the volume currently the command "pactl list sinks | grep -A2 -B2 -i running" gives me nothing . I am using amixer but i would rather use Pulseaudio I followed multiple way to do but none worked | 18:10 |
| haza-w` | I presume this is in the restricted drivers GUI? | 18:10 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: i ll check in a second | 18:11 |
| haza-w` | I've also had problems with those drivers in the past, I'll see what I'm running | 18:11 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: but i have no hardware acceleration | 18:11 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: yep it is proprietary. if you want I ca type it's whole name | 18:12 |
| haza-w` | oh, looks like I'm just using xserver-xorg-video-radeon | 18:15 |
| haza-w` | must've given up on the proprietary drivers | 18:15 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: I think I'll try the third option :D | 18:17 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: I like living risky | 18:17 |
| octavian_ | somebody mentioned how the proper way to install fglrx. Can you tell us one more pls? | 18:19 |

| cqcallaw | hi all, I'm looking for information on how to get automounting of LUKS-encrypted USB filesystems working in Xmonad (see http://askubuntu.com/questions/577521/how-can-i-get-an-encrypted-flash-drive-to-automount-in-gnomexmonad). Any ideas or hints on an appropriate place to ask such question? | 18:26 |
| teward | general fstab question - I have a drive that is NFTS, and I want it to always mount to a specific location, as a specific user and group, and with specific permissions across the board. I also need the system to NOT try and wait for the thing at boot, because it's not always connected. Is this the correct set of fstab options? https://pbin.dark-net.net/view/raw/e510f2c5 | 18:27 |
| octavian_ | teward: did you mention earlier the proper way to install fglrx driver for ATI radeon? | 18:28 |
| teward | octavian_: I'm sorry? | 18:28 |
| teward | octavian_: I never said anything with regard to fglrx or otherwise | 18:28 |
| teward | ever | 18:28 |
| cqcallaw | teward, seems legit. is it not working for you? | 18:28 |
| octavian_ | teward: I thought it was you. Sorry | 18:28 |
| cqcallaw | (the fstab entry) | 18:29 |
| ioria | octavian_ : i think there's an installer | 18:29 |
| teward | cqcallaw: was curious, before putting it into production | 18:29 |
| teward | cqcallaw: if all looks fine then i'll use that. | 18:29 |
| octavian_ | exit | 18:29 |
| teward | cqcallaw: the other thing I require is that a user be able to mount it, I assume that that's what the 'user' option achieves? | 18:30 |
| cqcallaw | probably the easiest test w/o rebooting would be to unmount the FS, then do "sudo mount -a" which should mount anything listed in fstab that isn't mounted | 18:31 |
| cqcallaw | hmmmmm, I'm not sure the user option does that | 18:31 |
| cqcallaw | if you're wanting user mounts, I believe you'll need FUSE | 18:31 |
| teward | cqcallaw: will do, thanks. last question is, if I only want the user/group it's mounted as to have access (excluding root because root accesses all), i just use a different umask, right? (i.e. umask=0007, rather than 0000)? | 18:32 |
| cqcallaw | actually I think "user" does allow user mount, see http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man5/fstab.5.html | 18:32 |
| cqcallaw | yes, changing the umask should change access to the mount point. | 18:33 |
| cqcallaw | it shouldn't touch the permissions of the files in the mounted FS, though | 18:33 |
| cqcallaw | which makes sense, but can be astonishing | 18:34 |
| shootbird | when I enable periodic updates via /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic, what time of day is it running apt-get update, etc? | 18:36 |
| octavian_ | haza-w`: tried the third proprietary driver and the result was the same: I was forced to use sudo apt-get remove fglrx-* to get back to the default one. | 18:36 |
| octavian_ | Is there any other way I can get hardware acceleration withous using those drivers? Somebody mentioned earlier a way | 18:37 |

| newuser789 | Pici: me ? | 19:23 |
| jhutchins | newuser789: Depends on whatever's managing the input; sometimes the window manager, sometimes the app. There's usually a "super" key (try right-hand Windows key) that is used either in sequence or combination. | 19:23 |
| Pici | newuser789: no, that was a typo | 19:23 |
| newuser789 | jhutchins: any page explaining about this ? | 19:25 |
| Ben64 | newuser789: sometimes its ctrl+shift+unicode | 19:28 |
| jhutchins | newuser789: Many. Again, it depends on what you're working with. | 19:28 |
| Chotaz | Hey peeps, how do I prevent ubuntu from sleeping while watching online streams? And why doesnt it happen when I'm watching stuff on vlc? thanks in advance. | 19:30 |
| brym | newuser789, i usually open a gedit window, and hold down the Alt Gr button (immediately right of spacebar) while typing. combine with shift for additional chars | 19:33 |

| haza-w` | [19:31:07] <Chotaz> Hey peeps, how do I prevent ubuntu from sleeping while watching online streams? And why doesnt it happen when I'm watching stuff on vlc? thanks in advance. | 19:35 |
| TimeVirus | How can I get this in HTML format saved locally too look at when offline? file:///usr/share/xubuntu-docs/desktop-guide/index.html | 19:36 |
| marcelo_ | does it only go to sleep in those situations or it goes to sleep when you do nothing for a while? | 19:36 |
| haza-w` | Chotaz: I use Caffeine, which automates the process when it detects a plugin like Flash player in fullscreen mode. | 19:36 |
| Prezident | Chotaz: wich WM? | 19:36 |
| Rakholl | ioria: thank you for the effort, but I think the mystery will be solved another day | 19:36 |
| Chotaz | Prezident, GNOME? | 19:37 |
| Prezident | Fluxbox? Then take a look at your xscreensaver | 19:37 |
| linuxwiller | VLC doesn't allow the system to sleep | 19:37 |
| Prezident | Aha, dont know gui settings, only text | 19:37 |
| Prezident | Might be a kernel setting aswell. | 19:37 |
| Prezident | What is your screensaver time on? | 19:37 |
| ioria | Rakholl: sorry | 19:37 |
| haza-w` | Chotaz: Give Caffeine a whirl, see if it works for you. | 19:37 |
| Chotaz | I was looking at Caffeine right now, but I was looking for a more definitive, less 'toggle-y' way. | 19:37 |
| haza-w` | $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:caffeine-developers/ppa && sudo apt-get update | 19:38 |
| haza-w` | $ sudo apt-get install caffeine | 19:38 |
| haza-w` | $ ln -s /usr/share/applications/caffeine.desktop ~/.config/autostart/caffeine.desktop | 19:38 |
| marcelo_ | TimeVirus, go to system settings -> Brightness and Lock -> Turn off screen when inactive for [never] | 19:38 |
| TimeVirus | what marcelo_ ? | 19:39 |
| haza-w` | Chotaz: By default, it runs as a daemon and detects when it should disable screensaving for you. There is a toggle widget that can sit in the notifier bar, if you really want, but I don't use it. | 19:39 |
| marcelo_ | Open up System Settings, go to the "Brightness and Lock" setting and change the "turn off screen when inactive for:" to 'Never' | 19:40 |

| Goose_ | Hey guys | 19:40 |
| marcelo_ | Hey Goose | 19:40 |
| Goose_ | Sooooo.... anyone wanna let me know how the hell to edit my conky files? | 19:41 |
| marcelo_ | conky files??? | 19:41 |
| TimeVirus | gedit? | 19:41 |
| TimeVirus | lol | 19:41 |
| TimeVirus | nano? | 19:41 |
| Ben64 | Goose_: vim /path/to/conky/files | 19:41 |
| HeroCC | vim | 19:41 |
| TimeVirus | or vim | 19:41 |
| marcelo_ | don't forget to apt-get that vim | 19:41 |
| treelzebub | foosudo deconky-my-files /* | 19:41 |
| TimeVirus | not here by default? | 19:41 |
| TimeVirus | :O | 19:41 |
| linuxwiller | use nano | 19:42 |
| linuxwiller | it is preinstalled | 19:42 |
| Goose_ | What are the differences betwen vim/vi/nano? I prefer nano but that's jsut me | 19:42 |
| Ben64 | then use nano | 19:42 |
| TimeVirus | cool then nano is da man anyway | 19:42 |
| marcelo_ | Vim is more for a power user super ninja master text editor programmer | 19:42 |
| TimeVirus | lol | 19:42 |
| TimeVirus | k | 19:42 |
| Goose_ | ^ nice description haha | 19:43 |
| Goose_ | How can I find the path to the files? | 19:43 |
| HeroCC | Vim for command line, Sublime 3 if I want a GUI | 19:43 |
| marcelo_ | or GVim ;) | 19:43 |
| Ben64 | Goose_: find or locate | 19:43 |
| TimeVirus | nano! | 19:43 |
| linuxwiller | Sublime Text +1 | 19:43 |
| TimeVirus | o\ | 19:43 |
| marcelo_ | I'm glad I got myself 100% rid of Windows... Thank you Valve for 'dem ports | 19:44 |
| treelzebub | i love nano and terminal text editors as much as the next guy, but for some things, i want notepad++ to have a linux version so badly. silent file and undo-history persistence without manual saves, plus ftp plugin for streamlined syncing. geany is nice, but doesn't do these 2 things. | 19:44 |
| ldlework | treelzebub: gedit? kate? | 19:45 |
| marcelo_ | treelzebub: have you tried Atom? It's delicious | 19:45 |
| ldlework | and slow | 19:45 |
| Goose_ | My only issue was finding the actual files. I know how to edit them ahah | 19:45 |
| marcelo_ | true that xD | 19:45 |
| treelzebub | i want a text editor that allows me to keep tons of tabs open, and not ask me if i want to save my changes, EVAR | 19:45 |
| treelzebub | does atom do that? | 19:45 |
| Chotaz | haza-w`: ah, I see so I can disable the notifier bar bit and just let it run on background? btw: i added the caffeine repo and ran apt-get update, however, there is no 'caffeine' package to install | 19:45 |
| marcelo_ | Some people say that atom is super-configurable, but I'm more of a vim guy | 19:46 |
| Ben64 | Goose_: should have said that then, instead of "...how the hell to edit my conky files?" | 19:46 |
| haza-w` | Chotaz: Yes, the softlink in ~/.config/autostart will start the background daemon on login. | 19:46 |
| linuxwiller | heard atom is super sluggish | 19:46 |
| haza-w` | And that's interesting with regards the missing package... | 19:46 |
| Goose_ | Yeah, sorry. Long day ahah | 19:46 |
| haza-w` | What Ubuntu version are you on? | 19:47 |
| linuxwiller | I don't edit conky files | 19:47 |
| treelzebub | yeah, atom looks like too much overhead, and it's sluggish on 14.10, according to some forum posts... something to keep in mind | 19:47 |
| linuxwiller | Copy configs from around the internet | 19:47 |
| marcelo_ | Nixie Pixel is probably the best youtube channel for new Linux users | 19:47 |
| Goose_ | haza-w': me? | 19:47 |
| linuxwiller | Never seen videos | 19:47 |
| linuxwiller | always forums for me | 19:47 |
| haza-w` | no, sorry, Chotaz | 19:47 |
| Chotaz | haza-w`: 14.10. I just noticed on "apt-get uodate" that it's returning 404 for the caffeine ppa | 19:47 |
| Goose_ | I noticed that earlier too | 19:47 |
| haza-w` | Chotaz: Typo? | 19:47 |
| TimeVirus | Nixie Pixel is a hotty too :) :P | 19:48 |
| TimeVirus | well ish | 19:48 |

| Chotaz | haza-w`: already checked. I copied the ppa link from webupd8 | 19:48 |
| treelzebub | i'll give Atom a shot. I'm not sold on my 14.10 install. might go back to 14.04. having hella encryption + swap issues. | 19:48 |
| haza-w` | Chotaz: You could always download the package directly: https://launchpad.net/~caffeine-developers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/6732658 | 19:49 |
| sjsj | Guys I need help | 19:49 |
| Ben64 | dont ^ | 19:49 |
| sjsj | my pc is stuck on rescue mode | 19:50 |
| haza-w` | I don't think the ppa exists under Utopic, which would explain the 404 | 19:50 |
| sjsj | I just wanted to know if there is a solution | 19:50 |
| Ben64 | haza-w`: Chotaz: caffeine is in the ubuntu repositories, no point in adding a ppa for it anyway | 19:50 |
| Chotaz | haza-w`: huh, thanks, i was not finding the link on the launchpad website | 19:50 |
| Ben64 | Chotaz: don't install the package manually, you'll have a bad time | 19:51 |
| Chotaz | Ben64: i was not finding any package by that name before adding the ppa anyways. | 19:51 |
| Ben64 | ooh, it got removed in 14.10 | 19:51 |
| Chotaz | so I'm stuck with installing it manually I guess? | 19:52 |
| Ben64 | no | 19:52 |
| Ben64 | don't do it | 19:52 |

| pilsnerpopper | code-guru, I am using firefox and when I click full-screen, nothing happens and the normal-size video freezes | 21:29 |
| pilsnerpopper | code-guru, hitting escape will allow me to continue watching in normal view | 21:29 |
| stef1a | i'm using Ubuntu 15.04 on a 64-bit machine and I'm having trouble installing Skype. help? | 21:30 |

| OerHeks | !vivid | stef1a | 21:30 |
| ubottu | stef1a: Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) will be the 22nd release of Ubuntu due for release in April 2015. Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1. For more info see the announcement at http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1425 | 21:30 |
| thechitowncubs | stef1a, provide more information | 21:30 |
| OerHeks | support in #ubuntu+1 untill release | 21:31 |
| Naphatul | i see there's a vivid build for 1.6.2 but i don't see a .deb, is it provided elsewhere? | 21:31 |
| marcelo_ | stef1a, you can go to the skype website and Download the ubuntu .deb package. Double click (will open the software center) and it will install it for you | 21:33 |
| Naphatul | nevermind found the deb | 21:34 |
| stef1a | marcelo_: I get the error, "cannot install libqtwebkit:i386" | 21:34 |
| stef1a | libqtwebkit4:i386 | 21:34 |
| yuuchan | In any case, is there a good alternative to pm-utils? | 21:34 |
| stef1a | when I try to install this with apt-get, I get unmet dependency errors | 21:34 |
| yuuchan | stef1a try apt-get update | 21:35 |
| marcelo_ | see if this dependency will fix the problem https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/vivid/+package/libqtwebkit-dev | 21:35 |
| marcelo_ | Wait, I think that's the wrong link | 21:35 |
| Yves | You know DropBox? | 21:36 |
| OerHeks | stef1a, you will get all sorts of solutions, you should ask in #ubuntu+1 | 21:36 |
| stef1a | OerHeks: okay, thanks | 21:36 |
| hay207 | hi guys, i have a very basic question, how are we supposed to switch between open applications using mouse? | 21:36 |
| roxlu | hi | 21:36 |
| marcelo_ | OerHeks, I know it doesn't use the mouse, but you could try Alt+TAB which is awesome for switching applications | 21:37 |
| roxlu | I just updated from ubuntu 13 to 14. After the requested reboot it's not opening the desktop anymore. I see a terminal with some info like /dev /sys no such file or directory. Anyone who knows what may cause that or how to fix it? | 21:38 |
| pilsnerpopper | type "startx" | 21:38 |
| pilsnerpopper | startx | 21:38 |
| roxlu | pilsnerpopper startx is not a command | 21:38 |
| roxlu | I think I'm in some sort of rescue shell | 21:38 |
| OerHeks | wrong, startx is old, sudo start lightdm, or try crtl alt F7 first | 21:39 |
| roxlu | Busybox v1.21 | 21:39 |
| pilsnerpopper | when did startx stop being used? hahah | 21:39 |
| roxlu | OerHeks sudo not found :/ | 21:39 |
| kikoo_ | what happens if I install Ubuntu on Windows drive? Will my Windows stuff get overwritten? I dont get the option to install "side by side" | 21:39 |

| franz123 | hello | 21:40 |
| franz123 | i need some help with an installation of ubuntu server | 21:41 |
| pilsnerpopper | makes sense, I still use it for raspbian | 21:41 |
| roxlu | yuuchan I found this post, which describes the same issue: http://askubuntu.com/questions/452631/ubuntu-14-04-doesn-t-boot-after-upgrade-from-12-04-installed-inside-windows-8-1 | 21:41 |
| roxlu | with solution | 21:41 |
| roxlu | (fingerscrossed) | 21:41 |
| franz123 | the display show me some error, like "mount: mounting /dev/sda on /media failed: Invalid argument" | 21:42 |
| OerHeks | roxlu, inside windows 8? | 21:42 |
| franz123 | somebody to help me? | 21:42 |
| roxlu | No, I have a dual boot system | 21:42 |
| roxlu | win8 +ubuntu | 21:42 |
| OerHeks | roxlu, i would boot in single user mode, and perform: sudo apt-get install -f # to see if that solves anything | 21:42 |
| roxlu | OerHeks thanks, but what about this solution: http://askubuntu.com/questions/452631/ubuntu-14-04-doesn-t-boot-after-upgrade-from-12-04-installed-inside-windows-8-1 ? | 21:43 |

| hay207 | what is the desktop environment used in ubuntu phones? | 21:47 |
| popey | Unity 8 | 21:47 |
| hay207 | will gnome and kde environments run? | 21:48 |
| popey | hay207: out of the box, no. It doesn't ship with X or Wayland, which they both require. | 21:48 |
| === darren is now known as Guest86065 | ||
| k1l | you dont want gnome or kde to be used by finger touch only | 21:48 |
| hay207 | is there an article about unity importance? | 21:49 |
| popey | importance? | 21:49 |
| k1l | what do you mean by "importance"? | 21:49 |
| k1l | if you mean something like marketshare you will get 12 answers if you ask 10 guys | 21:49 |
| hay207 | what is unity and its icapabilities | 21:50 |
| hay207 | not clear enough in wikipedia | 21:50 |
| k1l | unity7, the thing you actually see as standard desktop on the ubuntu desktop so far is a gnome-shell working with compiz running on the gnome3 basis. | 21:51 |
| Bray9082_ | How would I mount an SMB location with the terminal | 21:52 |
| hay207 | so unity replaces gnome-shell? | 21:53 |
| Bray9082_ | Sorry I meant connect to | 21:53 |
| popey | hay207: unity is an alternative to gnome shell or kde, yes. | 21:53 |
| hay207 | i cant use gnome extensions with unity | 21:53 |
| popey | hay207: you cannot | 21:53 |
| popey | unity is not gnome shell. | 21:53 |
| popey | completely different technologies | 21:53 |
| k1l | hay207: unity is another shell for the gnome basis. the gnome-shell is standard shell that gnome uses. its a different thing but both use the same basis. | 21:54 |
| === kpease is now known as kpease_ | ||
| hay207 | and gnomeshell has no touch capabilities i guess | 21:55 |
| popey | dunno, never used it | 21:55 |
| k1l | well they should work with touch. but they are not optimized for it, so there are some actions that are very tricky to use instead of beeing easy to use. | 21:56 |
| hay207 | ok thanks guys for clarification | 21:57 |
| nickerSLAVEgg | hi all | 21:57 |

| stef1a | popey: looks like it, yeah | 22:01 |
| k1l | stef1a: can you show a "apt-cache policy skype" in a pastebin? | 22:03 |

| k1l | stef1a: or better: show a "cat /etc/apt/sources.list" in a pastebin to be sure | 22:06 |

| kiro | necesito ayuda | 22:09 |
| k1l | stef1a: ok. do a "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list" then go to the lines that contain the "utopic" (51 and 52 in the paste) and make a "#" at the beginning of that line. then press ctrl+o for saving and then ctrl+x for exit. | 22:09 |
| genii | kiro: You can ask your question either in this channel in English, or in the #ubuntu-es channel in Spanish | 22:10 |
| k1l | stef1a: then "sudo apt-get update" to get the new list. then for more support please ask in #ubuntu+1 :) | 22:10 |
| limbera | i'm configuring an ubuntu server for a web application and i want to lock down the security so that only root can login via ssh | 22:11 |
| limbera | is that a good/reasonable approach? | 22:11 |
| k1l | limbera: that is the total wrong approach | 22:12 |
| genii | The more reasonable approach is that root is never allowed to login by ssh | 22:12 |
| admin_ | hj | 22:12 |
| limbera | i see | 22:12 |
| k1l | limbera: so you could make it work only by key auth (and make sure you dont loose you key :) ) | 22:13 |
| limbera | what are some terms i can google to learn more about that | 22:13 |

| Bray9082_ | How would I connect to an SMB location through the terminal | 22:16 |
| k1l | adminX1X: no one is going to fix stuff on software that is not meant to run anymore anyway. so upgrade to 11.10 and then 12.04 at least | 22:17 |

| narfnarfnarf | vlt: does this mean I cannot share a session via xrdp? only login to a new session on the same machine? | 22:22 |
| rypervenche | narfnarfnarf: You can run x11vnc as your user with something like "x11vnc -display :0 -forever" | 22:22 |
| === Dreaman is now known as lion | ||

| narfnarfnarf | but it’s a requirement for me that it uses RDP | 22:23 |

| k1l | AfterDarkness: you can format (means erasing all the data) the partition with a live ubuntu system. | 22:36 |
| AfterDarkness | i already have ubuntu i mounted the HDD on read mode to back it up | 22:37 |
| AfterDarkness | now that i finished i want to format it but i was afraid that it might brick the HDD | 22:37 |
| AfterDarkness | dunno | 22:37 |

| k1l | no. that will not break the hdd. just the data in there will be lost (what is the intention on formating anyway : ) ) | 22:38 |

| limbera | where is the appropriate place to store public keys | 22:52 |
| limbera | ~/.ssh | 22:52 |
| limbera | or ~/Users/<username>/.ssh | 22:52 |
| limbera | for an ubuntu server | 22:52 |
| rypervenche | limbera: Really it doesn't matter where they go. By default, they are located in ~/.ssh for a user. | 22:53 |
| limbera | ok thanks | 22:53 |
| rypervenche | limbera: If you have them in a non-standard location, you will need to either create a config file (~/.ssh/config) or use the -i option to specific the location of the key. | 22:53 |
| rypervenche | limbera: I would say best practice is to keep it in the user's ~/.ssh directory though. | 22:54 |
| limbera | ok | 22:55 |
| limbera | so i'm trying to lock down my server and prevent ssh login and only allow key autgh | 22:55 |
| limbera | *auth | 22:55 |
| limbera | i've generated a pub/private key combo on my local machine and i've transferred the public key to my server | 22:55 |
| limbera | should i just leave it in ~/.ssh | 22:56 |
| Sacramento1986 | hello, i see my motherboard sound hdas in dmesg but not anymore in sound manager since like a week, i now work with a usb soundcard | 22:56 |
| limbera | security wise is there any difference between ~/.ssh vs ~/<user>/.ssh | 22:56 |
| rypervenche | limbera: If you are only having people log into the server, then you don't need to create keys for the users on the server. | 22:56 |
| Sacramento1986 | where can i look for more informations on the topic, or i didnt enter the right keyowrds | 22:56 |
| limbera | yep rypervenche so 1 key in ~/.ssh to allow root access is sufficient and sage? | 22:57 |
| limbera | *safe | 22:57 |
| imbezol | limbera: ~/<user>/.ssh is likely not quite correct. It should be ~<user>/.ssh | 22:57 |
| limbera | yeah i was being lazy and using brevity | 22:57 |
| k1l | limbera: ~ is already /home/user/ | 22:57 |
| limbera | oh gotcha | 22:57 |

| lasko | cage_raphel: ifconfig is a command that will show you information about interfaces. | 23:23 |
| demorg | ? | 23:23 |
| lasko | !ask | demorg | 23:23 |
| ubottu | demorg: 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 | 23:23 |
| gabrielsch | black screen after installing nvidia drivers, when I install it's ok, but after rebooting I can't see anything | 23:23 |
| gabrielsch | gnome starts to load, but freezes | 23:24 |
| gabrielsch | the logs aren't helping me | 23:24 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Open a terminal and run the command, and check to see if you see a wlan0 interface. | 23:24 |

| lasko | cage_raphel: I presume you are using an ethernet connection at the moment? | 23:25 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : that is right.. i am running a ethernet connection at the moment, | 23:25 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Can you also provide the output for the command sudo lshw -c network | 23:26 |
| adminxx | k1l thanks .. im about to upgrade to 14 ina min | 23:26 |

| monk12_ | hey all, I have a GPT disk and UEFI BIOS dual boot question ... I installed Window7 1st cause I heard its paritions/bootloader are kinda picky. than afterwards I setup ubuntu... so my drive setup looks like /sda1 (ntfs Windows), /sda2 (fat32 Windows boot/esp drive), /sda3 (that other special partition Windows creates labeled msftres). /sda4 (linux /boot), /sda5 (linux /home), /sda6 (linux /), /sda7 (linux swap space)... | 23:28 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Okay so atleast in that last pastebin we can see that the hardware is recognized but is currently "DISABLED". It looks like the inteface is going to be called wlan0. Can you perform the command ifconfig wlan0 | 23:28 |
| monk12_ | I used to use EasyBCD then to just add the linux /boot drive to the Windows 7 Boot Manager. but i realized it was prob on MBR and EasyBCD seems to now not allow GPT as Windows protects its BCD their developer told me. | 23:29 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : http://paste.ubuntu.com/10612673/ | 23:29 |
| monk12_ | it actually messed up my BCD so i had to boot into the Windows DVD and use the boot commands to clean it up... My question is should i put GRUB2 somehow into that /sda2 drive? possibly/recommended for Dual Boot? | 23:30 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Okay, give me a few moments to look through. | 23:30 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : sure mate.. thank you :) | 23:30 |
| monk12_ | i heard of maybe using 'bootrepair' to do this. but wasnt sure if you can overwrite the Windows BCD boot drive safetly | 23:30 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Can you try "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up" --- and then if it errors to pastebin the errors, and if no errors show up, provide the output for ifconfig wlan0 | 23:32 |

| lasko | cage_raphel: Okay. Lets try something else then. pastebin the output for rfkill list | 23:34 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : http://paste.ubuntu.com/10612695/ | 23:35 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: rfkill unblock 1 | 23:36 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Then try rfkill list again | 23:37 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : http://paste.ubuntu.com/10612702/ | 23:37 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: hmmm... how about sudo rfkill unblock all | 23:38 |
| lasko | And then rfkill list again | 23:38 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Just to verify, you currently have the wifi switch turned to on right? | 23:39 |
| cage_raphel | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10612707/ | 23:39 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : my wifi switch is in amber.. normally it used to be in bright white.. so i reckon its off.. i also checked the network settings where it says the wifi is off.. and when i try to turn it on.. i am unable to turn it on.. and when i press the amber wifi button .. it simply turns the aeroplane mode on . | 23:40 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10612715/ ---- do those commands and then paste the output of those commands, as well as rfkill list | 23:41 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : http://paste.ubuntu.com/10612732/ | 23:43 |
| Bray9082_ | tgm4883: lasko: i made some modifications https://gist.github.com/anonymous/caa06a528a5cf521deee | 23:43 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: I think the second half of the rfkill list command got cut off. | 23:44 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : sorry about that bro.. | 23:44 |

| emanuel | Hello. I have a ideapad z560 that has a (I think) 32 bit kernel. Can I upgrade this to a 64 bit so I can run KVM? | 23:44 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: hmm very weird. And you've tried to just reboot? | 23:46 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Not that that is the "solution" but I'm curious if that actually does fix it. | 23:46 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : would u like me to reboot ? | 23:46 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Yeah give that a try first. And then come back | 23:46 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : sure bro.. will be back in a min. | 23:47 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : i just rebooted.. still unable to connect to wifi or turn on the wifi switch | 23:49 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : again.. pressing the wifi switch turns on the aeroplane mode | 23:49 |
| lasko | cage_raphel: Hmm... I'm kind of at a loss for troubleshooting from here. Maybe someone else can assist? | 23:50 |
| OerHeks | emanuel, i think you can, not upgrade but reinstall | 23:50 |
| cage_raphel | lasko, : no worries bro.. thank u so much for your help | 23:50 |
| emanuel | OerHeks, can I reinstall from within the running session or do I need to burn a new live DVD? | 23:50 |
| OerHeks | emanuel, burn a dvd or usb, that is fine | 23:51 |

| Dumle29 | Is there any way to make the right-click -> compress option use pigz, so that it will compress with multiple cores? | 23:51 |
| Dumle29 | for bz and gz that is | 23:51 |
| OerHeks | reinstall in a 32 bit session is very hard to do, save yourself that time | 23:51 |
| emanuel | OerHeks, thanks. My goal is to run Windows 8 in a Virtual system under Ubuntu/KVM I have 4GB of ram in a dualboot. I run some apps that won't run with WINE and on Win 8 the wireless card doesn't play right with my router (but under Ubuntu it's fine) I'm assuming since KVM will virtualize the haredware it will solve my wifi issue or am I wrong? | 23:53 |
| OerHeks | emanuel, that is the hard way, but doable with 4 gb, sure | 23:54 |
| OerHeks | i hope win8 does not complain, it can detect kvm i remember | 23:55 |
| emanuel | OerHeks, is there an easier way? | 23:56 |
| fofgh | you may want (legal) Win virtual machines from http://modern.ie | 23:56 |
| fofgh | though they are the trial time-based versions | 23:56 |
| === owner is now known as Guest86232 | ||
| OerHeks | emanuel, not that i know of, just keep the win8 install side-by-side, and reinstall ubuntu in 64 bit and try out | 23:58 |
| xlogik | emaneul, have you looked at virtualbox or QEMU? | 23:58 |
