[00:23] gskellig: press esc it should show the boot process [00:23] why are you reinstalling grub btw? [00:24] My dc power jack broke. I replaced it and after I put everything back together the ssd wasn't recognized [00:25] I thought I lost all my data but livecd saw it all so I tried to recover [00:25] http://i.imgur.com/iHf3sFe.jpg [00:26] That's what i see when I hit esc [00:27] =/ [00:27] Still stuck [00:28] well at least it seems to mounted the filesystem [00:28] so that's good [00:28] Yes. Before it was literally "please insert boot media and hit any key" [00:28] gskellig: that might be the efibootmgr getting wiped [00:28] i guess the ssd didn't get damaged at all [00:29] ( the efibootmgr is saved in the uefi ) [00:29] if you reset the laptop's uefi or removed the cmos it would get reset [00:30] Maybe that's what happened [00:30] I kinda miss good old bios booting though [00:31] gskellig, what do you dislike in grub? [00:31] Grub is fine [00:31] this isn't a general chat channel [00:32] Im just not smart enough to fix it when I break it [00:32] Eric^^: i can get to (recovery mode) [00:32] who hosts the ubuntu servers/repositories?

[00:41] nothing open [00:42] only thing running is whatever boot-repair-disk does by default [00:42] Eric^^ is like the equivalent of those chess masters who can play 10 games at once against different people [00:44] Reliant: ok, you can try rebooting or maybe manually fix grub if you want [00:44] First thing I tried was manually fixing grub from some internet guides, but the commands they said to use didn't work [00:45] Reliant: np [00:45] Eric^^ any ideas why its not fully booting after mounting fs? [00:45] now that I've used the boot-repair-disk, trying to boot off my drive now gives "BOOTMGR is missing" [00:46] gskellig: this might be interesting http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1852473 [00:46] Reliant: ok, type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [00:46] and paste the link it gives you here [00:46] http://paste.ubuntu.com/10681368/ I think it's in there [00:47] line 1026 [00:48] gskellig: it might have written grub to the usb.. [00:48] Eric^^: do you think that's possible? What scunizi said? [00:49] Reliant: it's pretty odd [00:49] Oh eric^^ when I do ctrl+alt+f1 I see two errors [00:50] Reliant: you're using legacy for those os's, you're booted in efi mode right now though [00:50] Fast TSC calibration failed [00:50] I have no idea what that means [00:50] Reliant: which disk is first in the boot order in the bios/uefi ?

[00:51] gskellig: hehe [00:51] I tried telling grub to install to a different drive only from boot-repair, but it gave the same error [00:51] =( [00:53] Reliant: ok, restart and check your bios and see which disk is first in the list [00:53] Maybe ill just reinstall [00:53] Reliant: also, you need to make sure legacy is selected and try to boot the live usb in legacy mode [00:53] I tried clicking Legacy, same error [00:54] for the bios, because of the USB stick, I press F12 to choose it. It's definantly the ATA Samsung [00:55] Reliant: ok, is the bios set to legacy mode? [00:55] when you choose the usb, can you choose legacy or just plain usb without uefi usb? [00:55] so I boot off the USB without uefi? [00:55] gskellig: i guess it can be fixed [00:55] Reliant: yeah [00:55] ok [00:56] Can? Or can't? [00:56] gskellig: can [00:56] I can't use apt-get in recovery [00:56] do I choose "GRUB Legacy" checkbox under advanced options too? [00:56] gskellig: do you have a nvidia graphics card btw?

[01:24] well that explains it :P [01:24] thanks [01:24] np [01:25] Hey--I'm trying to install Ubuntu and both "Try Ubuntu without installing" and "Install Ubuntu" get me stuck at the login prompt :( [01:25] my PC doesn't like to boot ubuntu + several other distros if I force UEFI boot devices all off [01:26] Do you recommend just not doing UEFI? I was going to configure qemu/kvm to VT-d my video card to a Windows guest, I don't know if I need UEFI for that or not. [01:26] Reliant: is os-prober installed? [01:27] lol EriC^^ this may be a more severe cognitive problem i may be having [01:27] yes [01:27] hi [01:27] * Latrodectus is away: Away [01:27] well, both ubuntu and manjaro failed to install for me unless I manually went into bios, set it to boot legacy + UEFI devices instead of forcing UEFI off, then I have to select the UEFI version of the CD or USB stick [01:27] d4rklit3: hehe [01:27] what happends if you type kill -9 -1 in terminal? [01:27] instead of the Legacy version of USB stick or CD rom [01:28] I dislike uefi myself [01:28] lol [01:28] will see what happens when I disable UEFI after it's installed [01:28] r0ach: That's consistent with my experience. Something about "CSM" mode. I'm still stuck at a login prompt trying to boot 14.10 though. :( What's the default login for ubuntu? ubuntu/ubuntu? [01:28] hopefully doesn't blow up [01:28] don't disable :P [01:29] if you want best compatibility, you want CSM mode enabled, and UEFI turned on, but secure boot off [01:29] * and fastboot off [01:29] what's CSM? [01:29] compatibility support module [01:29] Yeah, I've disabled Fast Boot too. I'll try to restart it again... [01:29] I have "Other OS/Windows 8/Windows 8 WHQL [01:29] axtran: maybe your username is saferway to login [01:30] I'm going to try "Windows 8" with CSM ON and UEFI + Legacy with Legacy [01:30] Reliant: what other os's do you have installed?

It still bugged out, but I was able to login with ubuntu (no password), click cancel for error reporting, and continue with graphical installer. I hope it installs properly... hehe [01:35] Reliant: what do you mean? what's in /etc/grub.d ? [01:35] 00 through 21 [01:35] Here's to hope 14.10 plays well with my new computer parts :X [01:35] Have an issue with software sources. My internet failed during an update from 14.04 to 14.10.

[01:44] I'm back in Ubuntu [01:44] Reliant: ok, get to a grub prompt [01:44] press c when grub loads [01:45] done [01:45] ok type ls -l [01:45] ok [01:46] does it list the partitions? [01:46] yes [01:47] i feel so bad EriC^^ just went through this exact same thing with me like 2 hours ago [01:47] you deserve to be paid for this [01:49] nah [01:49] Reliant: is there a hd1,msdos1 there? [01:49] Windows is supposed to be on sda1, so I don't know why the old grub was using sdb [01:49] *takes out a hacksaw and a penny* how much bits-of-a-coin would you like? :p [01:50] nothing for hd1. no known file system [01:50] Reliant: what's listed when you do ls -l ? [01:50] other than the one with the 5 partitions [01:50] hd0,1 and hd2,1 [01:51] lol its been like 4 months since update & upgrade. [01:51] like six 404's on my apt-get update [01:51] Reliant: ok, try ls (hd0,1) [01:51] is that the windows partition? [01:52] it's supposed to be [01:52] yes [01:52] Reliant: did you ls it? [01:52] ok [01:52] needed a / at the end to see what was in it [01:52] oh ok [01:52] press esc [01:52] and boot into ubuntu [01:53] done [01:53] Reliant: edit the 19_custom and replace hd1 with hd0 [01:54] guys, which DE except unity, nice to use in ubuntu? [01:54] kd [01:55] the file disappeared [01:55] rebs: tnx, [01:55] Reliant: what do you mean? [01:55] i only tried it out but it seemed nice [01:55] hhee: whatever you like, it only costs time. personally i like openbox for its lightness [01:55] dunno if theres any major issues [01:55] 19_custom is gone [01:55] Reliant: are you sure? [01:55] Reliant: ls /etc/grub.d/ [01:55] it's now 19_uefi-firmware [01:55] aeon-ltd: tnx :) [01:56] ok, that's pretty odd [01:56] it got moved to proxifiedScripts/custom [01:56] i see [01:57] what about the "1888D..." tag in the config? [01:58] i think that's your uuid [01:58] SDA1 has a different uuid [01:58] it's changed i think [01:58] replace it [01:59] EriC^^, only 2 small problems remaining [01:59] 1) i have to hit enter on grub every time i boot (i liked it when it was automatic) [02:00] 2) keyring password still weird [02:00] i can help with 1 [02:00] no idea what keyring is [02:00] for, an encrypted dir?

[03:07] le_pig: you're running ubuntu on 11,1? [03:07] Really looking forward to the next iteration of Ubuntu :) [03:07] Ubuntu is keeping me from going back to Mac because it's so swanky [03:07] kian: i have a macbook pro 11,1 running ubuntu 14.04 [03:07] oh i see, the dvd iso should have the required package [03:08] …hmmmm. I don't seem to have a `cryptsetup` binary, nor /etc/fstab or /etc/crypttab files.

[03:08] I really just want to find a killer ultrabook with 16GB of RAM to run Ubuntu on -- I do a lot of data slicing and read large files into working memory [03:08] Artemis3v: think it's included with 14.04?

[03:37] hi - i have a few ubuntu desktops and an ipad i would like to print off... I am looking to buy a wireless printer.. how would i get ubuntu to know about it? Do i need to use a print server on my adsl modem/router or is there a better way? [03:37] jj995: That was just to see where the lock was, IF it is apt, then one might be able to "rm" the file . [03:39] Bashing-om: I can see that apt-get is running, so can't we assume apt-get has the lock? I'm just going to try sending SIGINT to that sleeping apt-get process from last month [03:39] boomernang: I have a brother wireless printer that I print off fine. They have their own 3rd party tool for the setup, not sure if the standard cups with ubuntu would work with it, I didn't really try. That's the only one I have first hand experience with, maybe I can try the HP at work tomorrow :3 [03:40] jj995: Best to know, rather than guess .. ( I have borked my sytem poking at things ) . [03:41] I would hope it would be mostly standard, it's just network printing [03:41] SchrodingersScat: thanks. So im using xfce at the moment.. where would i go to add a network printer? [03:41] Bashing-om: sending SIGINT to apt-get seems safer than just deleting the lock file, right? [03:42] boomernang: go to the mouse start menu and type in printer, then the plus sign, should bring up a menu that includes a dropdown for network printers [03:42] SchrodingersScat: awesome. have a good day :) [03:43] boomernang: you too, good luck. [03:43] jj995: "lsof" == list open files. if it comes back that apt has a lock, it is save to " sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/lock " . [03:45] Bashing-om: for whatever reason lsof never returned anything. I sent SIGTERM to the apt-get process and the lock was released and apt-get is working normally now. I still think it makes more sense to end the apt-get process than to just delete the lock from underneath it [03:47] jj995: :) All's well that ends well, like advised, depends on what holds that lock .

[06:52] yea, e.g if i drag all icons to my center monitor and then arrange icons the icons will go to the left monitor again [06:52] i've tried hacks like saving the icon positions but when I create a new file on Desktop or something it still shifts over to the left and i want it to create the file on the center one [06:53] swap left moniter cable middle moniter cable [06:53] or swap moniters === felipe is now known as f03lipe [06:54] middle left left middle [06:56] \leave === alejandro is now known as Guest23416 [06:59] My laptop uses a built in graphics adapter.

Ubuntu 14.04 detects it as "Intel® Ivybridge Mobile". I am getting a white flash (one frame of white) at the start and end of EVERY opengl transition in Libreoffice Impress slideshows. This seems to be a bug with the opengl driver and not with Libreoffice. How can I fix opengl glitches in Ubuntu? [07:55] BlackDalek, ubuntu version number??? [07:56] ubuntu 14.04.2 [07:56] BlackDalek, darn. I was going to suggest you get the intel linux graphics driver installer, but 14.04 has been deprecated [07:58] @somsip: it was after reboot [07:58] Drivers are installed (got that done here yesterday) but the system still after 5 hours of trying won't go above 1024x768 and nothing I do changes that. It's not seeing the right settings for the monitor eather as the Monitor is a 16:10 motor [07:58] cfhowlett, to make matters worse, I already looked into the intel's own driver for linux, and discovered I needed 14.10 to use it. I upgraded to 14.10 and it totally broke my system and I had to restore 14.04 from a backup. [07:58] you should never need to pull direct from intel [07:58] BlackDalek, :) yep. [07:59] if there is a problem with the version shipped with ubuntu you can either a.) fix it yourself if you are skilled b.) log the bug and work with the maintainers to fix it [07:59] cfhowlett, 14.10 simply does not work on this laptop at all. It won't even boot up to a login screen. [07:59] BlackDalek, I can't advise on that as I only use LTS releases ... 14.04.2 [07:59] setting the xorg config to use "vesa" and confirm the prooblem goes away without opengl [07:59] that would seem a reasonable test [08:00] the more you narrow it down the cleaner and more focussed the bug is, and the easier it is to work with people [08:00] cfhowlet same here i only use lts [08:00] and hi [08:00] ikonia, how do I go about making that change to xorg config? is it easy to do? [08:01] you'll need to generate an xorg.conf and set the "Driver" line to "vesa" [08:01] this will use a failsafe non-accelerated video card mode [08:01] in all fairness that's not to say that intermediate releases don't work fine ! ;-) [08:01] blackdalek graphics driver? [08:02] ikonia, ok... is there a howto you can point me to which explains where I can find this xorg config file to edit? ;) [08:02] Tex_Nick, true. personal preference as I can't justify upgrading every 6 - 9 months. bloody edges tend to be bloody. [08:02] BlackDalek: Xorg --configure will generate a template [08:03] cfhowlett: indeed sir ;-) [08:03] BlackDalek: modify the template and drop it into /etc/X11 as a file called "xorg.conf" and restart the xserver (or just reboot to be clean) [08:03] hi guys [08:03] hi [08:03] how can I run matlab in ubuntu [08:03] reza: install it [08:03] launch it [08:04] reza, install, launch it, run it [08:04] is it possible at all?

[08:21] yes, exactly :) [08:21] new [08:22] frdmn: has it always been slow to shutdown & boot ? [08:22] Tex_Nick: well it's a 19" server [08:23] so basically there was nothing installed [08:23] frdmn: what's the actual issue ? [08:23] ikonia: if I type "reboot" it takes 1-2 minutes until the system finally shuts down [08:23] and start up takes a while as well [08:23] I want to find out which process is responsible for that [08:24] log it, basically. [08:24] frdmn: ok, remove the boot splash and watch the boot process, you'll see what's slow [08:24] frdmn: chances are whatever is slow to boot is slow to stop [08:24] move forward from there [08:25] the issue, I can't reboot that machine often because its productional :/ [08:25] then wait until you can [08:25] as if you can't do it often - it isn't causing you a problem with the slow shutdown === EREVAN is now known as Danielyan [08:29] Ablest1980 I'm trying to set the video output on a 4k capable 42 inch smart TV and ubuntu is giving me nothing but out of range issues [08:31] brycetd19m: you'll probably find you need to hardcode a lot of variables into the xorg.conf to get that setup [08:31] as well as confirming not only can your video card support it grapphically, but from itt's output socket too [08:32] I have done that windows does require a special driver and I normally run the tv at 1080P but ubuntu doesn't seam to do it [08:33] you'll probably need to set a fair ammount of the tv's parameters manally [08:34] Hard coding the 1080P settings matching windows settings 100% does one thing and one thing alone it causes the monitor to display eather out of range errors or the screen was shut down to prevent damage.. [08:35] what settings are you setting and where ? [08:37] Was suggested this brycetd19m: http://sammart.in/2012/05/29/enabling-resolutions-in-ubuntu-12-04-lubuntu-12-04/ [08:38] brycetd19m: what video card device are you using [08:39] Gtx750 2gb drivers are installed in fact you helped me with that [08:39] I don't remember [08:39] brycetd19m: so do you currently have an xorg.conf ? [08:41] I do yes. Setting it manually is lost at reboot and I can't get rid of the message out of range anyway. Windows driver uses uses a modified rgb setup near as I can tell.

[09:26] duckey: because your syntax is wrong http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/06/bash-if-statement-examples/ [09:26] Its a homeserver running ubuntu server, (not the vpn server but another one) [09:26] duckey: you forgot to close your if's [09:27] frdmn, bash says fi is not a command [09:27] then the paste contains a different state [09:27] the paste doesnt even contain a single "fi" [09:28] leothlon: when you say "ubuntu server", which computer do you mean -- one in the same lan as vpn server; the vpn server; or something outside? [09:28] leothlon: I lost contact with you here [09:28] I know. I removed them [09:28] its on the same lan as the vpn server [09:28] duckey: thats the issue [09:28] try this: [09:28] leothlon: ok [09:28] my router is running the vpn server, and the ubunto server is connected to the router [09:29] duckey: http://pastebin.com/U8Wj9wgW [09:29] leothlon: what happens when you try to ssh your ubuntu server? what ip do you use when you do so? [09:29] Do live usb persistence files work on mac? [09:29] Qwertie: should do, i think [09:30] gry it just times out.. i ssh into 192.168.1.59 (the ubuntu server), and i do this when the vpn is connected and active [09:30] Mine keeps getting wiped :/ [09:30] frdmn, I got for text, all updates are complete [09:30] Is it possible for a user to provide their own xkbmap? Without root access to /usr/share/X11/xkb [09:31] duckey: what do you mean? [09:31] Qwertie: Seems odd. They are created/mounted by the live distribution and shouldn't be affected by the installed OS [09:31] leothlon: I think there's a flaw in the vpn setup-- it is supposed to give you a local IP. if your local IPs in that lan are 192.168.1.*, then it should give you a 192.168.1.* ip, not one ending in 10.*. [09:31] Qwertie: (afaik) [09:31] Going to try reflashing the usb with unetbootin this time [09:32] leothlon: to test this hypothesis, you can try to disable iptables on that server and try to ssh into it again. I suspect that you would find that it still times out even with iptables disabled :) [09:32] same [09:32] actually the vpn server is setting 10.X rather than 1.X so its easier to set specific rules and knowing what devices comes from vpn.. i can connect to everything els fine, but not the ubuntu server :/ so it must be the ip tables.. couse if i flush the iptables i can connect fine...

[10:19] it says confirmed but not finding a workaround [10:19] vbgunz: you could try adding a script to /etc/pm/sleep.d if there's not a better way [10:20] I have this issue with an H97M-itx/ac motherboard from Asrock [10:20] i think whatever is in there runs when you suspend/come back from suspending [10:20] eric:there is noone in that room to help me [10:20] 6 people is there === sysop is now known as Guest41750 [10:21] mar11: it's not on this server, you have to type /server irc.spotchat.org [10:21] vbgunz: see comment 13 on it [10:21] EriC^^: I'm in that directory and don't want to touch anything yet, it all seems generic yet specific. nothing here seems general, maybe I'm missing it [10:21] mar11: what, in MATE channel only 6 people? [10:21] mar11: sorry, ignore that, I misread [10:21] mar11: try to ask at their forum [10:21] no in #linuxmint-help is 6 people [10:22] mar11: you need to change the irc server. mint decided to not make their support channel here on freenode. if you cant join that channel there see their website for other support contacts [10:22] mar11: open another irc client and type /server irc.spotchat.org [10:22] I'll try suspending again, I already somewhat created a file close to that, I'll try that one [10:22] it says there is not such a server [10:23] mar11: what irc client are you using [10:23] mar11: then please visit their website and see there what support mint offers. thanks [10:23] Hello [10:23] bonjour [10:23] @irc.ubuntu.com [10:23] !fr | TsafnatPanea [10:23] TsafnatPanea: Nous sommes desoles mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement.

Also see !guidelines and !o4o [10:28] thanks [10:29] I want to upgrade my laptop hdd to a larger one, is there an easy way to copy an encrypted ubuntu hdd to another drive? I've tried disks & gparted off of a live ubuntu usb with no luck [10:29] cyborgcygnus: dd [10:29] or clonezilla [10:32] well, I made the file, I even chmod +x the file. network-manager is still dead after resume. I just rebooted, I will try again [10:32] I just rebooted, see if a reboot did the trick [10:32] vbgunz: made what file? [10:32] /etc/pm/config.d/modules [10:33] ok [10:33] I put my ethernet driver in there which is alx ... network-manager still come up dead. i just rebooted, gonna see if I resume ok here [10:35] vbgunz, is your script working via commandline? [10:35] yeah, #13 doesn't work for me and I'm using the exact same driver. [10:35] Amm0n: it's not really something to execute [10:36] it only contained SUSPEND_MODULES="alx" [10:37] I'm just pretty tired of having to go to a commandline after a suspend and do "sudo service network-manager restart; sudo mount -a" I really feel I shouldn't have to [10:38] ubottu dd [10:38] I just don't know the proper place to add something like that without feeling like I'm hacking the system AND without forgetting I did this 3 months down the road when it's officially fixed and my hack adds a whole new problem to the system [10:38] vbgunz: just make a script with #!/bin/bash at the top, and type if [ "$1" = "resume" ] || [ "$1" = "thaw" ]; then service network-manager restart; fi [10:39] vbgunz: use case ....esac if you want, that would be cleaner [10:41] EriC^^: thanks for the advice, I'd like the most transparent way possible about this. 3 months down the road I will forget about this completely. it will resurface for my kids, I guarantee it. There has to be a script, one script that already exist that is guaranteed executed on resume. what script is that? [10:44] gonna try again [10:50] vbgunz: does network manager say "asleep"? [10:51] EriC^^, thanks I'll give it a go. [10:51] vbgunz: nmcli nm [10:51] after resume? [10:54] gr33n7007h: I'll do that now [10:54] is there a way to upgrade the opengpl version ? [10:54] opengl* [10:55] im trying to run an application that require 3.2 3.3 opengl [10:55] but im not sure if i support it [10:55] you're going to hit problems [10:55] you'll have to move outside the packages supplied by your distro [10:55] I think all the current drivers support 3.3, don't they? [10:56] error: Failed to create OpenGL context. [10:56] error: Failed to create context!

It seems like my neighbours are connected to my wifi router even if I changed the password 3 times ! [10:56] Paradisee_: what video card and drivers are you using? [10:56] gr33n7007h: nmcli nm returns identical from before resume, after resume except after resume, the STATE is disconnected... I don't see anything asleep [10:57] how do i check it [10:57] mcphail: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10683205/ [10:57] ^ [10:57] Nedal: sounds like a question for the ##networking guys [10:57] VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

[10:59] that's a good question [11:00] gonna try again, this time removing the 50unload_alx hack and see what happens [11:00] 'Morning all [11:01] Paradisee_: the proprietary drivers support 4.x, whereas the open drivers are still on 3.something [11:01] how do i check it [11:02] Paradisee_: sudo lshw -C video behind driver= [11:02] HOLY CRAP, believe it or not (not sure how long until another problem pops up for me) but I removed the executable bit on the 50unload_alx hack found in /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/ and not only did I successfully start back up with the network but my mounts all came back without me having to mount them [11:03] Paradisee_: you will not be using the proprietary driver unless you have specifically requested to do so [11:03] holy jeebus, by disabling the hack that shipped with the system do I get the desired outcome [11:03] damn [11:04] gotta try again [11:06] mcphail: http://dpaste.com/0T5ZWZ6 === andrex is now known as andrex|off [11:06] gr33n7007h: in case you missed it, it looks solved [11:07] Paradisee_: sorry - can't follow links from this device!

[11:08] Reference: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UtopicUnicorn/ReleaseNotes [11:09] x44x45x41x4E: studio is a flavor for ubuntu desktop music related [11:10] lotuspsychje I see. Interesting. [11:10] x44x45x41x4E: ubuntu core can be used to developers on new devices to work [11:10] Paradisee_: i don't think that is your video driver [11:11] x44x45x41x4E: iirc studio got stuff setup like jack audio server etc which is common use on music production related setups [11:11] Paradisee_: thats your audio driver [11:11] Ubuntu Studio saved my ass... I'm on Kubuntu and I could use SimpleScreenRecorder to get a clean vid and it turns out Jack from Studio saved the day... I ended up installing Ubuntu Studio tools directly into Kubuntu and that worked also [11:11] product: Cape Verde/Pitcairn HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 7700/7800 Series] [11:11] maybe :D === andrex|off is now known as andrex [11:12] vbgunz: we try to keep this channel in family friendly language :) but yes, ubuntu studio is a good alternative some times [11:12] k1l lotuspsychje Cool.

What is wrong ? [12:07] I'm trying to post a topic to the ubuntu forum, but unless I'm completely blind, there doesn't seem to be a button to create a new topic. I did the whole login thing with SSO and I am properly logged in. I've been a member for years, never had any trouble before. Any ideas? [12:08] bonjour [12:09] #FTD [12:13] Hey guys, is there any .isos with preinstalled apache and php and things you need for hosting? [12:14] tryhard2: no [12:15] tryhard2: when you install server version you can choice those things... [12:15] tryhard2: Downloading Debian CDs 1 to 8 :) [12:17] tryhard2: 'sudo apt-get install tasksel %% tasksel' select the LAMP Package and off you go :) [12:18] make that '&& tasksel' [12:18] is it possible to completely run ubuntu from a USB flash drive with anywhere near the performance of a standard HD I want to be able to carry my OS around but I didnt know if I would get anywhere near the performance I was hoping for [12:18] !persistent | donavan01 [12:18] donavan01: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [12:18] tryhard2: you can make a fresh install and run that right away then create an image of your system for future use if you desire. [12:21] thanks for the links but it doesnt really answer my question I know you can install it on a USB and run it from there but what am I looking at performance wise am I going to curse every min of it. [12:21] donavan01: It will be slower [12:22] donavan01: it depends on the performance of your USB drive [12:24] assuming I got a prettty high speed drive am I looking at something that would be useable or will be terrible to use as a desktop... I understand that the persistant thing would be a great idea for things like severs on embedded hardware but didnt want to waste time and money just trying it out [12:25] donavan01: useable, and performance will depend on the hardware you're running it on, the speed of the usb drive, and the usb interface [12:25] What counts as "desktop use" tends to differ from user to user as well [12:25] yeah I guess I am being pretty vague here and asking for detailed explination [12:25] sorry about that [12:26] havent slept in days and had random crazy ideas === adan0s_ is now known as adan0s [12:26] donavan01: you seem to want a guarantee, and there isn't one. Give it a go - it won't take much to setup [12:27] donavan01: take a day off the crazy ideas, go sleeping, and come back with specific questions when you got that ideas sorted :) [12:28] but k1l but without the lack of sleep how am I supposed to reach the proper level of crazy required for the ideas :P [12:28] serious thanks for the info [12:29] donavan01: although, you can install onto a usb flash like you install onto a hdd if the usb is big enough, so you would not need to run the whole system in the ram like it does for the live system. but since usb is slow most times compared to sata there would be still performance issues === Guest7704 is now known as uber [12:30] ok so if im going to do this make sure the system has some serious ram === robgraves1 is now known as robgraves [12:33] you use things like preload to load stuff into ram as well, but it'll still be slow once you commit the changes to disk/flash [12:33] SHould there be a progress bar after using this command "sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda conv=noerror,sync bs=1024" to determine how long or if the drive is cloning to the other drive? [12:34] PoidaPan: [12:34] PoidaPan: Nope [12:34] PoidaPan: To get a progress bar you'll need 'pv': sudo apt-get install pv [12:34] AppleCIDR, Do I just wait & guess? I determined if I try & close the terminal it says a process is still running so I assume it's still in progress [12:35] PoidaPan: Then you'll need to pipe it between the if and of like: dd if=/dev/urandom | pv | dd of=/dev/null [12:35] If it is still running, then it is still in progress. [12:36] PoidaPan: there is only a "i am done" sign at the end. so wait [12:36] AppleCIDR, the pipe it thing made no sense to me haha, is there an easy way once it's done to expand the crypt-lux partition to the fill the rest of the available hdd space on the new drive? [12:36] Is there a way to prevent a program from having access to some informations ? [12:37] LnxNoob: perhaps run it as a different user, who doesn't have permission to view that information? [12:37] PoidaPan: AppleCIDR no matter what you do, it will not help you to get a progress bar right now. so just let it run [12:38] AppleCIDR Is there a way to change permission to access informations like local ip ? [12:38] kian: Oh no, of course not. You'd have to start it over. [12:38] Is it true ubuntu and a [12:38] k1l, yeah I'll leave it since it's been going a little while alreafy [12:39] LnxNoob: That I'm actually not sure about. Maybe someone with more knowledge would be able to instruct you better. [12:39] Ok AppleCIDR Thanks. [12:40] Gahhh damn it google. Is it true ubuntu and all other linux os's do not support anything above 8 sockets. I'm unsure why it wouldn't but looking at the info I've seen so far linux kernels are hard coded to only support up to 8 socket boards [12:41] brycetd19m, is this a server setup? === x44x45x41x4E is now known as [Away]x44x45x41x === [Away]x44x45x41x is now known as x44x45x41x4E [12:43] Any command to kill this already running process "sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda6", I exited the terminal when it was still going, not sure if that auto stopped that writing random info to about 300gbs of space, in gparted it won't let me touch the partition being written to [12:43] Just a qustion came across an old work server. A first try at replacing the nodes and noticed that it had 32 sockets. After some searching I have found many posts stating the Linux dev's never coded support above 8 sockets. [12:43] PoidaPan: sudo pkill dd [12:44] AppleCIDR, will that also kill another dd I'm running cause I don't want to do that [12:44] PoidaPan: Oh... [12:44] brycetd19m: what sockets are we talking about? [12:45] brycetd19m, !ubuntu-server or ##linux would know more about the socket limits you questioned [12:45] PoidaPan: You'll have to kill by PID then, use 'top' to get the pid [12:46] A retired hp superdome running what I believe to be 32 intel itanium cpu's === Pici` is now known as Pici [12:52] Hi. how do I generate a md5checksum of a password ? [12:54] Pryvit [12:55] brycetd19m, pretty sure kernel can be compiled for more than the standard ( 8 x32, 512 x64) [12:57] workerbeetwo: From the cli: `echo 'password' | md5sum` But if you are going to store a password for eg. a web service look into bcrypt from your language of choice [12:57] Where is the xorg.conf supposed to be saved to? For some reason I have to reconfigure my monitors when I reboot. [12:58] Hey Guys and Girls! Any fixed release data for Ubuntu 15.04 yet? [12:59] RudeViper: /etc/X11/ but usually you dont need to do that anymore for most setups [12:59] XaMZA: see the release schedule [12:59] !15.04 | XaMZA [12:59] XaMZA: Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) will be the 22nd release of Ubuntu due for release in April 2015.

I know its next month sometime [13:00] I have configured laptop-mode sucessfully but I have a problem, when my laptop wakes up from suspend it disables Wifi and I can't renable it [13:00] ok well that is where I saved it - but that doesn't work - have to reconfigure on boot. Bugger [13:00] PoidaPan: send them "kill -usr1 ". That won't kill the process but will ask the process to report how much it has written.

I might be confusing an issue. I think I was on another wife when it went into suspend mode. [14:03] Maimster: damn, this is driving me nuts. It's just a waste of time having to reboot, then suspend then wake just to have the wifi working [14:04] htruss: True. brb...

[14:38] RudeViper: I had the same issue, thinking what I did to fix it. [14:39] Is it possible to select which devices get automounted when plugged in an USB port? I want to stop ubuntu from specifically mounting my phone [14:40] I really wish I could solve the mouse focus problem but I'll wait on that till I get the screen blanking fixed - that is more important [14:40] RudeViper: I needed to keep the session on because the stupid Samsung monitor would flicker for 30 minutes because I could use it. [14:40] RudeViper: Checking my settings. [14:41] I have seen and tried over a dozen things but nothing works - now I can't remember what I did to turn off light locker - lol [14:42] RudeViper: Light locker turns off in settings. [14:43] I'm using LXDE so all of that is different - not much of ANYTHING is in the same place as XFCE or Unity [14:43] RudeViper: Ahh okay. [14:44] I've never messed with LVM on a new install...is it worth it? is it needed? Slows down performance? [14:45] I may have to do a complete reinstall - but I am darn sure going to save my xorg.conf now - roflmao [14:45] Is there something like hyper fx pass through on ubuntu? Missing being able to give a vm access at the hardware level to gpu's [14:46] anyone know the LXDE equivalent to settings manager?

All it does it terminate with status 1 - no errors even when calling it with just dhcpd -t -cf /pathtocfgfile/dhcpd.conf (with the correct path or course).

Is there a reason why I should do so? [15:13] I've never had anything but trouble with AppArmor and its the first thing I strip out of an install before doing anything else - gave up trying to actually configure it [15:14] but thats just me - and there's probably security issues in doing to.. but security means nothing if the system doesn't do what I need it to to begin with [15:17] kickit2: so both SELinux and AppArmor are broken?

[16:40] RudeViper, although I'm more concerned with why you need sudo to copy files..: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [16:41] RudeViper, if you went all the way to running a file manager with sudo, you may as well use it to change the permissions of the usb drive folder from there by right clicking on it and changing permissions :) === adrian_ is now known as adrian47 [16:41] the only reason you need sudo is that the folder has the wrong permissions set. You can solve this in a couple seconds with a terminal command or with graphical interface like I said above [16:42] ok - tried using sudo cause it wouldn't do it normal - thought it was refusing to read - not write - doh!

[18:04] ekool: yeah that seems way more likely [18:04] nothing obvious in cron, only thing sthat run often are munin and sysstat [18:05] oal: just do it as you go, simple :) [18:05] wonder if there's some gnome config fighting with an xfce config [18:06] (that seems to be the usual state of affairs for themes) [18:06] wiredfool: I think you are on the right track. [18:06] Can I use linux convert utility to convert html page to a pdf file? [18:06] anyone else had trouble getting Virtualbox's guest tools working on Ubuntu? [18:07] toothe: be more specific on the error. You need certain things installed to build the DKMS modules. === wagle_ is now known as wagle [18:07] ekool: sure, just a sec... [18:07] daftykins, I've tried, but it always turns into a huge pile of unorganized ... stuff after a while :p [18:07] oal: ;) need to be more strict with yourself then [18:08] easier said than done [18:09] nothing in $HOME has been modified in the last 2 hours according to find . -mmin 120 -print [18:09] I doubt it's changing your files, it's probably something in memory. [18:10] screw it, gonna reinstall Ubuntu. === gusnan_ is now known as gusnan [18:10] toothe: seriously, that's overkill [18:10] tooth: before you do the install, did you do the build-essential, etc? [18:10] just to get a VM going? [18:10] i messed up other stuff. [18:10] ahh. [18:10] ekool: no... [18:10] okay, mayb eim over-reacting. [18:11] tooth: if you do the install you need to apt-get install certain things, like build-essential, etc.. also note, you don't have to install the vmware tools. Ubuntu has vm packages you can install via apt-get that do the same thing. [18:11] toothe: what other stuff did you mess up? [18:11] tooth: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2073803 [18:11] EriC^^: nothing...ignore that comment by me. [18:11] ok [18:11] okay, apt-get install build-essential. [18:11] The open-vm-tools are much easier to install. [18:12] oh? [18:12] should I apt-get that? [18:12] toothe: aren't you installing virtualbox? [18:12] Yup... I forget how to use apt-get to search, I normally use aptitude. So I'd do an aptitude search open-vm and see whats available to install. [18:12] EriC^^: open-vm tools work for virtualbox too [18:12] Is there a script that will log/email on every new IP detected logging into SSH? [18:12] i'm installing IN a VM, not a Vm itself. [18:12] ekool: oh ok === alejandro is now known as Guest31847 [18:13] dcrouch: is this machine externally facing? (internet side?) [18:13] okay, installed open-vm-tools. What now? [18:13] hi.... [18:13] daftykins, yes, looking for pci compliancy. [18:14] toothe: after you install usually a reboot is all you need. Then your VM should have proper vid drivers, etc. [18:14] toothe: reboot the VM I mean of course. [18:14] dcrouch: using a non-standard port # then? [18:14] let me try that now. [18:14] problem with linuxpendrive for lubuntu alternate..... [18:14] daftykins, yes. [18:14] pikaciu: come again? [18:14] it does not find the iso [18:14] toothe: you might need this as well: open-vm-dkms [18:15] whoa...that did it... [18:15] i was so annoyed, I was looking into Mint. [18:15] i cannot make a bootable usb with linuxpendrive for lubuntu alternate [18:15] what alternate is that pikaciu [18:15] i want to try encryption and lvm and stuff [18:15] bazhang 14.04 [18:16] there is no alternative media any more [18:16] pikaciu, what is the nam e of the alternate === BOHverkill_ is now known as BOHverkill [18:16] ikonia... yer for Lubu [18:16] yes [18:16] guys, which can i read for iptables setup? [18:16] pikaciu: didn't think it existed for anyyone [18:16] hhee: netfilter website [18:16] yes yes yesy yes [18:16] ikonia [18:17] pikaciu, what is the name of the lubuntu alternate [18:17] ikonia: all of docs and examples available there? [18:17] hhee: it's very well documented [18:17] ikonia: tnx a lot :) [18:17] bazhang lubuntu-aletrnat-i386 [18:17] pikaciu From terminal: sudo dd bs=4M if=/path/to/your.iso of=/dev/sdx && sync [18:18] Xvigorator, nooooooooooo i'm in windows [18:18] pikaciu /dev/sdx = your usb pendrive [18:19] pikaciu No Gparted/partitioning required. dd command will raw write your iso. [18:20] Xvigorator, in windows exists the command dd ? [18:20] launch from live cd [18:20] live usb [18:20] ikonia: i see a lot of little older docs on nefilter site. is this still relevant docs 2001-2002 years? [18:21] bazhang --- sorry... the name is lubuntu-14.10-alternate-i386.iso [18:21] pikaciu https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/USB_flash_installation_media#Using_dd [18:21] toothe: glad it is working. [18:21] remove all traces of windows. then enjoy linux life. no more issues [18:21] dont isntall wine. these are my advice to noobs first to use linux [18:22] Xvigorator, archlinux ? it'a a mess that os :-PP [18:22] pikaciu In Windows you will need to install one of the options in that wiki or find a Windows native solution. [18:22] ekool: thanks :-) [18:22] Xvigorator, ok.... understood [18:22] AcidRain2012: +1, :-) [18:23] pikaciu It's just reference information, as you're on Windows.. [18:23] toothe: no worries. [18:23] padhu: thx. ill +1 u as well now for my +1 [18:23] pikaciu Ok [18:23] Hi guys, I installed sphinxsearch on Ubuntu and running "rake ts:index", I keep getting this error "ERROR: source 'app_core_0': unknown type 'mysql'; skipping." can anyone help me with this? [18:23] toothe: i'm sure in the future if you want to install the vbox or vmware tools you can, just need to install some depencies first. [18:23] toothe: but they are redundant if you use the open-vm tools, in fact they'll conflict. So you have to use one or the other. === lykkin is now known as RichieStallersto [18:24] Parker0: I don't know much about sphinx, but it sounds like your sphinx doesn't have mysql "enabled" and thus, it's bailing on the type. You may have to install mysql first, then sphinx... or try it after. Sounds like it needs some mysql libs. [18:25] ekool Ahh, mysql is already installed, I also installed mysql-client [18:25] Parker0: Do you have to enable mysql support in Sphinx somehow? a config file, etc? [18:26] Parker0: good howto here: https://www.howtoforge.com/sphinx-as-mysql-storage-engine-sphinxse [18:26] ikonia... i'm so stupid or the lubuntu alternate exists for real ? [18:26] ekool I have the same config file working on app server, and giving this error on db server [18:26] ekool checking that doc thanks [18:28] can someone tell me how to get either the older version of the nvidia xserver panel or the full version one? All I am getting is two items and absolutely no way to configure my monitors === RichieStallersto is now known as ChuckPotino [18:30] RudeViper: install nvidia-settings you mean? [18:32] I have the drive installed - but the control panel only has two options on it - and absolutley no way to configure multiple monitors etc - it doesn't even look the same as what the picture shows in the software manager [18:32] does linuxpendrive have problem with usb stick just 2G ? [18:33] hang on - rebooting [18:34] pikaciu: No,.... until your USB got corrupted [18:34] padhu, thanx [18:39] in drop-down menu, in linuxpendrive, there is no lubuntu-alternate ... just lubuntu [18:39] and unsupported iso [18:42] pikaciu: what are you talking about? Universal USB Installer (UUI) from pendrivelinux.com ? [18:42] daftykins, yes :ù( [18:43] daftykins, and neither in uneboottin [18:43] pikaciu: download the ISOs manually then point to them [18:43] pikaciu: 'alternate' editions ISOs haven't existed for several years now i believe [18:43] !alternate [18:43] The alternate CD has been discontinued for the main Ubuntu distro, please use and report any bugs in the !LiveCD [18:44] not sure about lu/xu/ku/ [18:44] daftykins, look here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/14.04/release/ [18:45] pikaciu: why do i want to look there? :) [18:45] daftykins, it exists ... it.s aliveeee [18:45] pikaciu: what's the difference between lubuntu and lubuntu-alternate again? === joel is now known as Guest21757 [18:45] encryption [18:45] bprompt encryption [18:46] hmmm....k [18:47] ok... i'm doing a cd :-/ [18:48] Still looking to find a method to query DNS and get the source port used in my report. [18:48] hi, what can cause haning while accessing disks's seems like my system hangs if it tries to probe some of the disks or re-read a partition table [18:49] daftykins, it's updated to 19 feb 2015 [18:49] ponyofdeath: hanging, as in crashing, or temporarily? [18:49] pikaciu: so there's no problem then, you can download it manually and throw it on a flash drive [18:50] ekool: hanging, seems like for ever [18:50] ekool: i get hung task kernel msg too [18:50] daftykins, nope... because the uui not finds it... but it's working with the desktop ed. so... i'm burning a cd [18:51] done. now i'm installing .... :P [18:53] pikaciu: ok. easily worked around but nevermind [18:53] daftykins, :( ... it's not my fault,, [18:54] it's his (uui) [18:54] yeah it's written to name match some ISOs, i know [18:55] it works very well with lubuntu-desktop ... just 4 minutes [18:55] yeah so just do custom unlisted... [18:56] but i wouldn't recommend encryption [18:56] ekool: like if I call sync it will just hang [18:56] whats the deal with ubuntu's xorg log? grep -i accelmethod /var/log/Xorg.0.log doesn't return nothing === qwerty is now known as Guest66109 [18:56] daftykins, why why why why [18:56] daftykins, my country it's starting sneaking in our pc [18:57] ponyofdeath: Weird one. Sounds like your controller drivers are maybe not right, or a bad drive or something behaving wonky... maybe unplug any external HD's, USB sticks, etc. and see if it continues? [18:57] pikaciu: this is not a place for politics [18:57] Hi all! Anyone know of a way to enable system-wide Bash Keyboard Shortcuts in Ubuntu? [18:58] daftykins, ok sorry ... but why you don't reccomend encryption ? thanx [18:58] locoloco: there is no way to do so. [18:58] ponyofdeath: have you queried the SMART info of these drives to check? [18:58] bekks: darn... [18:59] daftykins: yeah doing that one by one if the drives are all responsive [18:59] hi, how can I tell the installer not to mount the partitions when it starts? [19:00] Rotwang: Only swap is activated upon installation. [19:00] Hello. Is anobody there? [19:00] bekks: what about Nautilus? or other applications? [19:01] programmieren: hello, largest channel on freenode here... yes. Yes there is someone here. [19:01] daftykins, it slows down the system ? [19:01] locoloco: Using Unity, you can define shortcuts. For running bash commands, you have to create shortcut which starts a terminal and executes your command. [19:01] Is there any way generally to see what the source address socket is for an arbitrary program that does a socket connection in a service, like in particular dig? [19:02] ycyclist: Whats the actual issue behind that? [19:02] I'd rather actually get the source socket for a dig query, but a more general solution, other than something requiring a lot of time like wireshark, would be nice. [19:03] I would like to see what the distribution of source ports selected is. I'd like to take it as a sample and run statistics on it. [19:03] ycyclist: Whats the purpose behind that? [19:04] bekks: I'd be happy with basic simple cursor movement (Ctrl + h backspace, Ctrl + f forward) etc. [19:04] clear [19:04] programmieren: do you actually have a support question? [19:04] In the short run, as an exercise. In the longer run, it had occurred to me that an odd or non-uniform distribution of such ports used might be of interest in performance of something like DNS queries, or anything else. [19:05] ycyclist: i think your query has more relevance in ##networking - not OS support [19:05] ycyclist: The distribution of source ports for queries is pretty much totally unrelated to the speed of the DNS resolution. [19:05] Say you have a program that biases to the lower end of some range rather than engaging in uniformly random selection of such port numbers. Say then the program tends to need to pick a different port when it is in conflict. Then if it is used a lot, it would slow down as more conflicts occur. [19:06] ycyclist: The program doesnt pick the source port, but it gets a usable surce port assigned from the networking stack. [19:06] I don't disagree, but if I am doing monitoring of a many aspect system, and I want to hit all the aspects once a minute, and I find I am slowing down because of port conflicts, that would be of interest to me. [19:07] Ok. So it is really a kernel device driver thing anyway. [19:07] ycyclist: Then concentrate on the things slowing down your system, not some arbitrary useless statistics. [19:07] Or kernel network driver. [19:07] :) [19:07] Useless stats slow doen systems, in general. [19:07] *down [19:08] this does sound a lot like an unproductive use of time if i'm honest [19:08] daftykins++ [19:08] the system knows what ports are in use, so it won't try to reuse [19:08] Well, presumably somebody does such testing for the kernel driver. [19:08] then you should ask in #linux [19:10] Guys !

I stupidly must have changed settings in Unicorn and now only have logout option in shutdown icon (which does nothing btw) I want shutdown and restart too [20:42] I double checked the files and indeed it wasn't working [20:42] hutch you can use terminal .. sudo init 0 < shutdown and sudo init 6 < reboot [20:42] Another thing is when I start up the laptop it has a lock icon and dialogue box but it does not accept text [20:42] But the same files were extracted on Ubuntu [20:42] thanks eikon81g [20:43] hutch, did you install a new desktop environment?

[20:46] hutch, I am running 14.10 and I used lvm and it made my machine have a very small boot partition, it is a known bug that I was unaware of.. you may have run into something similar you may want to check for bug reports on that [20:46] eikon81g: dpkg -l linux-* | awk '/^ii/{ print $2}' | grep -v -e `uname -r | cut -f1,2 -d"-"` | grep -e [0-9] | grep -E "(image|headers)" | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge [20:46] there is a bug in compiz shift switcher .. how can i report this error? [20:47] it makes it completely useless as it is now [20:47] eikon81g: the swap partition is missing using lvm [20:47] ekool it doesn't look like what I used in the past, do you use those yourself? I was told before to check the current kernal and remove the last versions [20:47] eikon81g: Yes I use that myself all the time. [20:47] ok cool [20:48] thx :) [20:48] I just punched it in.. here we go. LOL === ody is now known as Guest95183 [20:49] nice ekool this is working better than the last one because of the LVM bug that made my partition tiny it needs to be cleaned for future updates. [20:49] Very cool, thanks again [20:49] eikon81g: Yah, I hate those super small / and /boot partitions, pain in the butt sometimes. [20:49] yea, If I had know about the bug I woulda avoided LVM :\ whoops [20:49] I am learning so it's all good [20:50] did you concoct that command yourself? I am impressed [20:50] eikon81g: No, I just used google fu and found it and i've been using it for a long time. Here is URL: http://tuxtweaks.com/2010/10/remove-old-kernels-in-ubuntu-with-one-command/ [20:50] Hi craneo [20:51] I'm not even sure how all that got done with the command but I am reading through the output and it looks very good [20:51] nasty, very cool. ty [20:51] eikon81g: It's not really an LVM bug that causes it. It's just the way that partition sizes are created during install. Tons of distros do it, even FreeBSD. [20:52] eikon81g: Essentially that command uses dpkg to find out what kernel you are running and what the newest one is, and purges the rest. [20:52] ahh, when I got help last time they noticed my partition sizes which were oddly small [20:52] eikon81g: sudo init 0 < shutdown and sudo init 6 < reboot return error 'bash: shutdown: No such file or directory' and 'bash: reboot: No such file or directory' [20:53] I see ekool.. that makes it easy no guess work! when I get new updates for apps sudo apt-get autoremove cleans the unused update packages right? [20:53] hutch: strange, shutdown should be in your path. You can try sudo /sbin/shutdown -r now [20:53] yea, that one should work too.. [20:53] eikon81g: It does on some packages, but not kernels. Because, technically, they are still "in use" [20:53] I use the init commands to shutdown quickly alot [20:53] ok thanks ekool [20:54] what's the channel for off topic conversation? :D [20:54] Which means, you can boot into them anytime you want in case there is a bug or regression, etc. [20:54] right on.. just making sure I cleaned up after the last round of updates :P [20:54] octavian: #ubuntu-offtopic [20:54] rockin, thanks again! [20:54] octavian: Hrm, ##ubuntu? I don't know, I figure this stuff is all on topic? [20:54] !off-topic [20:54] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [20:54] I have used sudo shutdown and sudo reboot successfuly in the past. Is that wrong? [20:55] no that works too.. [20:55] hutch: No those are fine. [20:55] just more than one command to do it.. [20:55] k1l_: thx [20:56] i have installed gnome-session-fallback on my ubuntu_x64 and neither my works nor I am able to enable workspaces.. another weird issue is while I try to move the mouse to open an application listed in the taskbar, that application doesnt get focused. I have to click on that application windows once again to get the focus.. is it a problem in the unity or what?? [20:57] Hi, what process does the time syncing in 14.10? There appears to be no standard ntpd package anymore. I'm losing something like 5 minutes per day on physical hardware. [20:59] Qwell: There should be. [21:00] just openntpd, which is not installed by default, so I'm hesitant to install it, given that the option in time/date settings exists without it installed. Who knows how they'll conflict... [21:00] Qwell, I noticed an update today for time settings when I booted up.. are you up to date? [21:00] (also running 14.10 [21:00] ) [21:00] !list [21:00] toniox: No warez here!

I used a guide for things to do after install which had Gnome included though I didn't install the Gnome session ;) [21:01] Yea, that sounded like you had something going on with a desktop environment you can use synaptic to remove what you don't actually need.. [21:01] lista [21:01] eikon81g: only update I see that might be somewhat related, is tzdata. That won't help though. [21:01] yep ;) [21:01] Qwell: Granted, I don't have any 14.10 boxes, just 14.04 -- but I haven't heard anything about ntpd being removed. Very strange. [21:01] nice work hutch good luck [21:02] thanks for prompting my old memory eikon81g ;) [21:02] I am on xfce 14.10 and I don't have ntp options.. just manual [21:02] lol np hutch, I am a noob but glad to help when I can :) [21:02] Qwell: I still see it in 15.04 as well: i ntp - Network Time Protocol daemon and utility programs [21:03] my mistake it says it in there "keep synchronized with Internet servers" [21:03] oh good lord, they called the ntp daemon package ntp? [21:03] Whats the channel for ubuntu phone? === Numline2 is now known as Numline1 [21:04] Qwell: What happens if you do this: aptitude show ntp [21:04] Well if you select it it says "NTP support not installed" so I thought I remembered that.. I thought it odd at the time but I have not messed with it.. [21:04] asdASDs: #ubuntu-touch [21:04] Ben64: thanks:) [21:04] ekool: not installed - I'm disabling the systemd garbage, and just using ntpd. [21:04] ekool: aptitude is deprecrated on ubuntu [21:04] Qwell: OK cool, so it's still there just not the default. [21:04] Qwell: are you running 15.04? [21:05] LOL I tried in xfce to use that prompt to install ntp and I got an xfce error [21:05] ekool: The default should actually work. :) [21:05] Has anyone had any problems with alsa with Intel Series 9 Chipset audio in Ubuntu 14.10? [21:05] how to get my laptop drivers [21:05] k1l_: I still prefer it, will probably continue to use it until I feel that something else is superior. [21:05] how to know the drivers that are already installed [21:05] I have no audioings outputtings [21:05] Bassem: That is tricky... lsmod, you can also grep dmesg for clues. [21:06] also there is an "additional drivers" ui if you use the panel search type it in [21:06] Hey guys.... after some app updates this moring, I rebooted my machine and am getting the Purple Screen of death... [21:06] ekool: yes, but its not installed as standard anymore so giving people a aptitude command will not help them [21:07] k1l_: I don't know of an equivalent way of doing it via apt-get... so I offer assistance in the way that I know how. Aptitude is easy to install, and perhaps it will help people learn another way to do it as well. It's free advice. If someone chooses to ignore it, so be it. [21:07] ekool: apt-cache show package or apt-cache policy package [21:08] k1l_: I see. So it takes apt-get, apt-cache and (probably others) to replace aptitude ;) Sounds like a regression. [21:08] i mean how to know the vga driver name and type [21:08] processor nme and type [21:08] etc [21:08] Bassem: look inside /proc -- cat /proc/cpuinfo etc [21:08] Bassem: lshw -C VIDEO [21:09] lshw lscpu lspci lsusb dmidecode [21:09] some one gave me command like lscc or something like that before [21:10] i just dont remember it [21:10] Bassem: OerHeks just showed you the commands. Those will work. [21:10] but i want it for all drivers [21:12] what would it be for the mouse and trackpoint [21:12] ekool: actually there is "apt" now http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/utopic/en/man8/apt.8.html [21:13] k1l_: cool, nearly same commands as aptitude. [21:14] hi === k1l_ is now known as k1l [21:15] i want to check for my trackpoint because it dos not work [21:16] in windows is was connected to ps/2 port 0 [21:16] Bassem: Wish I could help. I don't know crap about trackpoints. [21:16] Bassem, is there a fn hardbutton to enable / disable it? [21:16] Bassem, what trackpoint ? "lspci " should give a line , past it here [21:16] eikon81g, no [21:17] hardinfo from the software center may be easier than the terminal.. [21:17] (an after thought) [21:17] indeed [21:18] I would also double check your keyboard to see if it is actually hidden on one of the F keys.. I have a machine like that.. :\ just sayin.. [21:18] OerHeks, it show nothing about the trackpotin [21:18] are root and user crontabs stored anywhere in plain text...doesnt seem to be /etc/crontab [21:19] aaas: cron.d/ cron.daily/ cron.hourly/ cron.monthly/ cron.weekly/ [21:19] aaas: in /etc [21:19] Bassem, download hardinfo from the software center and look under INput Devices [21:20] cat /proc/bus/input/devices [21:20] ekool so when i edit with crontab -e it parses them out to the different files in those directories? [21:20] mine is detailed there (SynPS/2...) [21:20] aaas: For your user crontab, yes... but the system has it's own crontabs that won't show up with crontab -e for your user, for root, etc. [21:21] You can go into /etc/ and do this: grep -Fir where is a keyword you are searching for, and see if anything pops up. [21:21] aaas: better yet: grep -Fir /etc/cron* [21:21] ekool so if i do 'crontab -e' OR 'sudo crontab -e' then it wont be stored anywhere?....ok ill see if i can find a unique search term [21:21] aaas: It will be stored. I'm just saying, you'll find OTHER stuff in addition to those in those directories. [21:22] ekool my grep doesn't seem to bring up anything...maybe it's in /var? [21:23] aaas: why are you trying to find the files? you should not be editing them [21:23] i want etckeeper to put them under version control [21:23] aaas: don't [21:23] why? [21:23] crontabs aren't meant to be touched by anything other than "crontab" [21:24] git wont edit anything...it's like backing up etc [21:24] what about when you go to restore [21:24] aaas: Depends on what you are looking for. User ones are in: /var/spool/cron/crontabs [21:24] i would manuall add with crontabe -e [21:24] eikon81g, it show only -Input Devices- [21:24] Sleep Button [21:24] Lid Switch [21:24] Power Button [21:24] AT Translated Set 2 keyboard [21:24] Video Bus [21:25] ekool ok thanks looks like root is there too [21:25] Bassem, sounds like you are on the right track.. It should be listed if installed.. [21:25] aaas: you can always sudo crontab -eu root [21:25] Is there a way to encrypt just one folder, but still making it browseable with a password/key? === DreamThief is now known as Guest63470 [21:26] oal: encfs [21:26] EriC^^ sorr what does eu do? [21:26] aaas: -e edit -u user [21:26] eikon81g, some one before gave me command for terminal show me drivers like this [21:26] EriC^^ ah yes...no i was referring to etckeeper backing it up [21:26] EriC^^, thank you [21:27] right but since it is not present in hardinfo that tells us that it is not installed.. [21:27] Hello, I was wondering if it was possible to use my current SSH key on my machine back home, which is also running Ubuntu [21:27] bobby1: I'm pretty sure ssh keys are tied to the machine they are generated on... [21:28] bobby1: ie. you can copy the pub key somewhere else but it won't do you any good. [21:28] Bassem, if you go to the panel search box and type: additional drivers and open up the ui it will look for driver updates.. [21:28] does it find any for your machine? [21:28] no keys can be moved anywhere...you can have a key and use it ove rand over [21:28] oh, really? Someone told me I can use that same key from a different machine [21:28] bobby1: If you can ssh into the machine, you can certainly copy it. It'll be in ~/.ssh/ -- but I don't think it quite works that way. [21:28] bobby1: you can [21:29] bobby1 you can...generate one (rsa) and make it yours...keep it private and you can use it as your keey to get into machines just like a normal key [21:29] my reason is because my machine at work, I SSH into our servers (it is urnning Ubuntu). I want to access this same stuff when I am home, [21:29] #List [21:29] !list | edward-18-1101la [21:29] edward-18-1101la: bprompt: No warez here!

[21:29] my machine at home is different, but it is also running Ubuntu [21:29] eikon81g, how can i make terminal list my processor type, vga type, sound type etc [21:30] bobby1: hypothetically you could also do ssh-copy-id from your home machines too, and add your keys that way, either works, you have options. [21:30] Bassem: lscpu lspci lshw [21:30] bobby1 do you know how to use keys for authorization? [21:30] Bassem: sudo lshw [21:30] I believe the guys covered that just a minute ago.. sudo lshw / sudo lspci [21:30] I actually do not, my IT team handles a lot of that [21:31] bobby1 your public/private pair can be used anywhere that supports the standard, github, bitbucket, amazon AWS, ubuntu, putty in windows (a little tricky with putty) [21:31] my problem too is that IT doesn't support Ubuntu [21:31] Bassem: you could, redirect that to a file ---> sudo lshw > myfile.txt <-- and then load it on a file editor [21:31] Is there a way I can make /boot bigger in size and / smaller in size? [21:31] Bassem, did you check for additional drivers in the software and updates center? [21:31] oh okay [21:31] is it basically as simple as copy and pasting? [21:31] eikon81g, i'm trying [21:31] bobby1 well dont nkow anything about that...but read up on public/private and authorized_keys and id_rsa/id_rsa.pub (make sure they are set to proper permissions 600) [21:31] ok cool, I'd start there and make sure the OS can't take care of it first [21:32] ah okay [21:32] well? [21:32] alright, sounds good. I will take a look [21:32] Thanks [21:32] bobby1 they keys are VERY sensitive to whitespace...somtimes you can copy paste but copying them over is much preferred [21:32] How do you daemonize a tail command?

[21:33] dcrouch: You can nohup it, but if you cant attach to it to see what it is showing, what is the point. Using screen or tmux may be what you want. [21:34] ekool, the idea is I don't want to have to use a screen, but want to create a service that watches a file kind of thing. [21:34] ekool, Sending the output to email for monitoring. [21:34] dcrouch: You can output to a file, to a logging service, etc.. really just depends.

[21:39] Bassem, it will show in hardinfo.. I think we determined your device is not installed.. [21:40] now how to find out if it is being detected is the next question.. and what it is identifying as so that you can get a driver for it..? [21:40] wish I could help more.. I have no more useful tips sorry :\ [21:41] best of luck Bassem [21:41] eikon81g, so how to find it [21:41] eikon81g, in windows it was connected to ps/2 [21:42] eikon81g, hardinfo dos not show me update [21:42] well do you know what device is? Synaptic or another..? you should check the specs online for your machine to see what device it actually is and rundown a driver for it and install it [21:42] hardinfo wont show you if there is an update that would only be in the software updater under the additional drivers tab [21:43] if the device is actually working as it should (like in windows) then if you can get the correct driver for the device and get it installed that would probably solve the issue.. [21:44] eikon81g, the softwear updater show nothing about my trackpoint [21:45] only amd/ati driver [21:46] yea, the video driver is another monster all it's own a lot of people recommend the native driver, may want to read up before updating that.. the AMD update has to do with the processor of the chipset..? [21:46] the chipset drivers may have an affect on the trackpad if they are missing.. maybe you should get that one and reboot to check it out.. === jottr_ is now known as jottr [21:50] hey guys, im trying to wget urls incrementing in number [21:50] i'm using i=1; while wget "www.whatever.com/folder/$((i++)).htm" do :; done [21:51] I gotta run Bassem good luck budd [21:51] but i get: (cant copypaste from vm) syntax error unexpected token `done' [21:51] eikon81g, thx alot [21:51] i'm missing a ;, nevermind :P [21:52] no prob good luck!

"modinfo cdc_acm" [22:38] I have just enough storage to record about 2 weeks continous from the 4 cams [22:38] Cool I am using it for 3 months and I think it is the best cctv software [22:38] continuous recording === joel is now known as Guest97294 [22:39] j`ey: "find /lib/modules -name cdc-acm.ko" => "/lib/modules/3.13.0-48-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.ko" [22:39] I have used countless of software but all ware bugging or does not feed my needs [22:39] zoneminder sucks at motion dectect, so I record all the time [22:40] I am recording one cam and the other 4 ore only monitor [22:40] TJ- do i save as a text file or something else [22:40] Indeed motion. Detect is a pain in the ass [22:41] With there blops and pixel shit [22:41] TJ-: maybe it's because I have the ubuntu server edition [22:41] Secret-Fire: save it with the name I provided in the first line comment. On linux file extensions (like .TXT) are *not* required for the system to recognise file types [22:41] Oldsk00l: we try to keep this channel language family friendly [22:42] Oke sorry [22:42] j`ey: I doubt it, unless you're using a cloud build which has a stripped down kernel package targeted at virtual machines [22:42] well, I am running it in a VM.. [22:43] I thought sh*T was a commen word but no matter I will watch my language [22:43] j`ey: Makes sense then; cdc-acm is a USB module and so the VM-target will not usually have USB hardware [22:43] I guess I could compile my own ckernel [22:43] TJ- ok done now just reboot [22:44] j`ey: Or simply install the full kernel image package and 'poach' or symlink the modules required into the running kernel's /lib/modules/${VERSION}/ path [22:44] Secret-Fire: Shouldn't need a reboot, just log out and log-in, which restarts the X server [22:47] TJ-: how do I install the full kernel package? [22:48] j`ey: The module(s) are in the package linux-image-extra-${VERSION}-generic [22:48] !info linux-image-extra-3.13.0-34-generic [22:48] Package linux-image-extra-3.13.0-34-generic does not exist in utopic [22:49] !info linux-image-extra-3.13.0-34-generic:trusty [22:49] Package linux-image-extra-3.13.0-34-generictrusty does not exist in utopic [22:49] -24 [22:50] hi, I get this all the time sudo: unable to resolve host barracuda-Lenovo-G550 [22:50] my /etc/hosts is this http://pastebin.com/HKD1gFmu [22:51] fisio: what's in /etc/hostname? [22:51] barracuda-Lenovo-G550 [22:52] EriC^^: [22:52] only that [22:53] fisio: type sudo hostname barracuda-Lenovo-G550 [22:54] EriC^^: sudo: unable to resolve host barracuda-Lenovo-G550 [22:54] did it not run through? [22:54] try using sudo again [22:54] sudo sudo? [22:55] no just any sudo command [22:55] nevermind though, i've no idea [22:55] is he on the sudoers list? [22:55] it's listing the right hostname in the error.. [22:55] yes I can do many sudo commands [22:55] fisio: did you chance the hosts and hostname? [22:55] this is my hosts [22:55] http://pastebin.com/HKD1gFmu [22:55] fisio: did you change it? [22:56] hostname says only this barracuda-Lenovo-G550 [22:56] what do you mean change it [22:59] fisio, do/etc/hosts and /etc/hostname have the same hostname? [22:59] !hostname [22:59] Use hostname to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hosts to include BOTH the old and new hostname and then change /etc/hostname to the new one. WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. [22:59] Anybody have expirience using Ubuntu with Openbox? I did a minimal install, installed openbox and obconf, did "nano ~/.xinitrc" and on line 1 put " #!/usr/bin/env bash", on line 2 put "exec openbox-session" but it didn't work. Do I need a login screen or whatever they're properly called? [22:59] iBurley: did you run startx ? [23:00] what is meaning of CRYPTO_SESSION in audit logs ? [23:00] EriC^^...oh [23:00] OerHeks: they do have the same name [23:00] ?CRYPTO_SESSION [23:02] there has to be something else besides hosts and hostname [23:02] fisio: do the sudo commands work or do they stop? [23:02] TJ-: thanks! how can I add that .ko to be loaded everytime I boot? [23:02] Ha, it worked. Thanks EriC^^ Sometimes my braid doesn't work properly... [23:02] k1l: most work but the first line always says sudo: unable to resolve host barracuda-Lenovo-G550 [23:03] cloudgeek, it is probably for viewing encrypted sessions [23:03] ah, /etc/modules [23:03] Latrodectus: I got a lot enties in aduit logs from china what it means? [23:04] j`ey: Add an entry to /etc/rc.local of the form "modprobe cdc-acm", prior to the final "exit 0" line [23:04] Latrodectus: what CRYPTO_KEY_USER ? means [23:04] fisio: did you change the "127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost" line in hosts? [23:05] j`ey: oh yes! of course, /etc/modules ... don't mind me :) [23:05] fisio: usually that only says 127.0.0.1 localhost in the first line [23:05] fisio: that is why i asked if you changed that settings [23:05] k1l: I changed them a few times [23:06] I found that first line on internet [23:06] fisio: so you changed them and now its not working. change them back [23:06] k1l: I don't know the right values, otherwise I would have changed them instead of coming here and asking for help [23:06] TJ-: thanks for the help! [23:07] fisio: change the first line in hosts like i said [23:07] ... [23:08] k1l: same thing [23:11] fisio: make sure there is no typo [23:11] Does changes to the hosts file need a restart of the network? [23:12] hostname changes need reboot iirc [23:12] hello [23:13] got a question anyone familiar with suspending issues? like in my case sometimes i cant wake up from suspend and have to hard reset [23:15] AfterDarkness: which graphics driver are you using? [23:16] opensource xorg [23:16] amd drivers gives me so much trouble [23:16] hi, is there a ppa or another way to install a post 3.19 kernel that isn't the automated daily build but something that is in use by someone else and thus may be less buggy? [23:16] it is so sad : / [23:16] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend [23:17] maybe that page is any help AfterDarkness [23:17] thanks will look into it [23:17] balrog-k1n: if you want a stable kernel use the official ubuntu kernels. [23:17] balrog-k1n: if you want to use try out kernels see !mainline [23:19] wait for Vivid next month [23:19] oh i should have thought about ssh-ing to my machine once my screen was black [23:19] as EriC^^ mentioned it could be drivers issue [23:20] Not encrypted swap i hope? [23:20] k1l: thanks, is !mainline a command for a channel bot? [23:20] anyone here use chordii on ubuntu or xubuntu? [23:20] !mainline | balrog-k1n [23:20] balrog-k1n: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [23:20] OerHeks: I'd do that but need kdbus which seems to only build against 3.19 or later [23:20] its available from apt-get, but not from the software center... [23:21] I am wondering how to fire it up now that i performed apt-get install chordii and it says it finished [23:21] !chordii [23:21] Arrick: try chordii [23:21] plus I'm not sure 15.4 will actually have a recent kernel.. they always lag behind a little [23:22] EriC^^, syntax error near unexpected token `<' [23:22] Arrick: press tab a few times is what i meant [23:22] anyone have audio problems in games with hdmi AFTER uninstalling ubuntu desktop? [23:23] balrog-k1n, you would need the 4.0 kernel > http://www.linuxtoday.com/developer/kdbus-other-features-you-wont-find-in-the-linux-4.0-kernel.html [23:23] hi [23:23] any one know how to use vim ? [23:23] orp: type vimtutor [23:23] if locate isn't finding something you know is there [23:23] how do you re-index the whole file system? [23:23] OerHeks: for out of the box support yes but you can build kdbus from its repository yourself [23:23] i forgot the command [23:23] Alright this is going to be a surprising amount of work. Anybody know of any decent distros that are Ubuntu based that have a sanely configured Openbox desktop? [23:23] updatedb? [23:23] vexn: sudo updatedb [23:24] ty eric ty [23:24] hi, i had a server go down on AWS, and I'm trying to figure out what log files i should look at to determine what happened [23:24] nothing EriC^^ [23:24] OerHeks: plus errr it actually says it won't make 4.0 anyway [23:24] balrog-k1n 4.1 actually ( with a maybe ) [23:24] it just pops in a bunch of directories and . files [23:24] game not using audio device when launching for some reason after uninstalling desktop interface...im using i3wm [23:25] Arrick: did you press enter? type dpkg -L corchii | grep /bin [23:25] Arrick: it should list all the executables [23:26] EriC^^, [23:26] /usr/bin [23:26] /usr/bin/a2crd [23:26] /usr/bin/chordii [23:26] Arrick: ok, what happens when you type chordii ? [23:26] it asks for parameters [23:27] that's the program.. [23:27] !info chordii [23:27] chordii (source: chordii): Text file (chordpro format) to music sheet converter. In component universe, is extra. Version 4.3+repack-2 (utopic), package size 39 kB, installed size 144 kB [23:27] its txt based? [23:27] Arrick: i guess so, it's 39kb [23:27] Arrick: try to open the dash and type chordii [23:28] yeah, tried that, says "run chordii" and nothing happens that can be seen [23:28] but, I am NOT looking for something that I have to do that with, lol... I want something that will allow me to write for the same format for the OnSong app, and I didnt want to have to do it manually. [23:29] hi [23:29] my ubuntu doesnt recognize an external hdd as "3", but as "31". how do I fix it back? [23:29] I have an instance on aws running Ubuntu 12.04 which is failing to start. Console output seems to be showing that grub is failing to find the system drive. Would it be better to ask here or in the aws channel? [23:29] 3 is the name of the volume [23:29] I can mount it only under 31 [23:29] how do I fix that? [23:29] "i dont have permission to access 3", but I can read 31 [23:30] same unit, different names [23:30] Whats the cmd to remove an app if you installed it with apt-get install? === leonardo is now known as Guest44553 [23:30] HOLA [23:30] Arrick, good guide to chordii http://www.vromans.org/johan/projects/Chordii/documentation/chordii-4.5-user_guide.pdf [23:30] Arrick: sudo apt-get purge [23:30] alguien de colombia [23:30] Arrick: apt-get remove # some may say apt-get purge [23:31] hola [23:31] Guest44553: #ubuntu-co [23:32] remove uninstalls the program only. purge removes program and configuration files [23:33] testing [23:33] holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa [23:33] is there any way to pass commands through xterm? like $xterm && cd ~/Desktop [23:34] I am getting '/dev/disk/by-label/cloudimg-rootfs does not exist. Dropping to a shell!' when booting the box [23:34] kdlkllq: xterm -x "" or xterm -e maybe [23:34] !english | Guest44553 [23:34] Guest44553: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [23:34] kdlkllq: man xterm [23:34] better [23:35] I have unmounted the system drive and attached it to an alternate instance and run 'e2label' [23:35] ToeSnacks: ask the hoster whats going wrong on that machine [23:35] Alright. Now that you know what I'm doing, is it wise to do this security-wise, lawl? Im thinking of making an alias for launching new terms/commands. [23:35] Thanks guys, I am back to the drawing board for the hunt for software.... [23:35] k1l: I put in a support ticket with aws, they said the issues is with the system on the vm an not on their side [23:36] the label of the disk appears to be correct [23:36] Arrick: how about guitarpro + wine? [23:36] nah [23:37] im trying to stay native *nix on this machine [23:37] tuxguitar maybe? [23:37] if I want to use a windows software, I just hit the kvm switch. [23:37] ToeSnacks: do the labels match? [23:37] k1l: yes they appear to [23:37] im looking for something like onsong, maybe I am out of luck [23:38] Arrick: stick around somebody might know [23:38] k1l: sudo e2label /dev/xvdg returns cloudimg-rootfs [23:38] yeah, i am [23:38] onsong ? [23:38] ok [23:38] volume name is 4, mount point migrated from 4 to 41 [23:38] how do I fix that? [23:39] ToeSnacks: what if /etc/fstab and /boot/grub/menu use /dev/sda1 instead of labels? [23:39] fstab is 'LABEL=cloudimg-rootfs / ext4 defaults 0 0' [23:40] yeah, onsong is a program for ipads and macs [23:40] k1l: grub is 'kernel /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-79-virtual root=LABEL=cloudimg-rootfs ro console=hvc0' [23:40] which looks right to me [23:40] granted I don't have a huge wealth of experience with manually changing grub === gusnan is now known as Guest40762 [23:45] oldsk00l, something like http://www.opensong.org/pages/downloads.html [23:47] @arrick wy are you lukking 4 somthing else [23:47] I just found that lol [23:47] ow sorrty :p [23:52] I need help [23:52] Please [23:53] I am trying to port ubuntu phablet-tools [23:53] ask your question, if someone can help they will. [23:53] and Enter does not take the place of proper punctuation. [23:53] does anyone know why rpcbind would need to be run on an nfs *client*? [23:54] when I do phablet-dev-bootstrap I get the error "Invalid clone.bundle; Ignoring." Please help! [23:57] SharpBombsMC, you might want to join #ubuntu-touch too, this is specific [23:57] Ok thanks!
