| Aeiortv | hello | 00:10 |
|---|---|---|
| Aeiortv | hello is it possible to download 15.04 and is it recommended to use it in a computer | 00:19 |
| k1l | Aeiortv: 15.04 is still beta. so i would recommend you trying 14.04 when you are a beginner | 00:20 |
| Aeiortv | k1l: i don't want anything amazon on my computer though, will just installing another DE work to prevent that? | 00:20 |
| ObrienDave | *bites tongue* | 00:21 |
| Aeiortv | ? | 00:21 |
| k1l | Aeiortv: you can disable that in the system settings easily or you can install a different desktop-setup when you use a flavour of ubuntu | 00:21 |
| k1l | !flavour | Aeiortv | 00:21 |
| ubottu | Aeiortv: !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. | 00:21 |
| monojin | Don't forget Ubuntu MATE ; ) | 00:22 |
| ObrienDave | not official yet | 00:22 |
| Aeiortv | !xubuntu | 00:22 |
| ubottu | Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce as the desktop environment. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 00:22 |
| Aeiortv | ok thank you | 00:22 |
| k1l | Aeiortv: i hope you dont just follow the FUD and keep an eye on other services sending your data like browsers and stuff. | 00:22 |
| ObrienDave | !fud | 00:23 |
| ubottu | Please do not fall prey to, or spread FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) - it is not welcome here! Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty_and_doubt | 00:23 |

| zykotick9 | dadis: did you figure out if it needed to be switched from localhost? I'd be interested in the answer. | 00:45 |
| MeanGene1990 | i made the iso disc and verified it was all intact | 00:46 |
| rgb-one | !dualboot | 00:46 |
| ubottu | Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot | 00:46 |
| MeanGene1990 | i booted from the dvd and i thought all was well | 00:46 |
| MeanGene1990 | yeah dualboot | 00:46 |
| dadis | zykotick9, yep, you have to change it from localhost to any ... also you have to uncomment the port i believe | 00:47 |
| MeanGene1990 | i selected the option for it to auto partition and then i click continue and then it goes back to the ubuntu logo and tells me to remove the media and hit enter | 00:47 |
| zykotick9 | dadis: cool. thanks. | 00:48 |
| MeanGene1990 | i follow the directions and my laptop restarts straight back to windows like nothing ever happened | 00:48 |
| k1l | MeanGene1990: what did you choose exactly to auto-partition? to use the whole disk? or to install alongside windows? | 00:48 |
| dadis | zykotick9, have you ever used mpd? | 00:48 |
| leonic | hello i just wipe my disk trying to install a sO | 00:48 |
| k1l | MeanGene1990: was there an error named? what iso do you use exactly? | 00:49 |
| zykotick9 | dadis: oh ya. i'm a HUGE fan of ncmpcpp. | 00:49 |
| rgb-one | leonic: a sO? | 00:49 |
| MeanGene1990 | it doesnt give me a slider to move i tried three different times and i select the auto partition and i cant find a slider to choose | 00:49 |

| dadis | zykotick9, have you ever used MPDroid? | 00:51 |
| zykotick9 | dadis: i don't have a cell "phone", so no ;) | 00:51 |
| dadis | zykotick9, you have a cell computer? wtf how do you operate? | 00:51 |
| zykotick9 | dadis: it OT, but I can survive without a cell "phone". | 00:52 |
| dadis | i think id be healthier without the 'phone' | 00:52 |
| MeanGene1990 | i have no experience with partitioning or using a cmd window besides what ive done in my networking class | 00:52 |
| dadis | back to linux questions world! | 00:53 |

| MeanGene1990 | idk how and i dont want to have my pc go into a meltdown lol | 00:54 |
| dadis | MeanGene1990, thats how you learn linux, meltdowns. | 00:54 |
| Bashing-om | MeanGene1990: We are here to help, we get you through this. Boot the livedvd -> "try ubuntu" mode -> desktop -> key combo ctl+alt+t yields a terminal .let us know when you have the terminal active. | 00:54 |

| neldogz | hi all, why is it that Ubuntu provides version 331.113 of the Nvidia prop drivers within the additional drivers tool meanwhile v346.47 has been out since february? | 00:56 |
| rgb-one | dadis: Unless you mean from the cd | 00:57 |
| dadis | yes hes using an iso.......... | 00:57 |
| neldogz | 331.113 is about a year old eh? | 00:57 |
| MeanGene1990 | so i boot from the cd and i choose the "try ubuntu" option? | 00:58 |
| ObrienDave | !latest | 00:58 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 00:58 |
| ObrienDave | neldogz, ^^^ | 00:58 |
| neldogz | ObrienDave, thanks, so does this mean that next month with the release of 15.04 we can expect a new driver? | 00:58 |
| ObrienDave | could be | 00:59 |
| rgb-one | MeanGene1990: Have you backed up your data on the windows system? | 00:59 |
| MeanGene1990 | yes | 00:59 |
| neldogz | Anyone recommend the Edgers ppa? | 00:59 |
| rgb-one | Ok :) | 00:59 |
| ObrienDave | PPAs are not generally recommended here | 01:00 |
| MeanGene1990 | i have made a repair disc and backed up my movies to my seagate hdd | 01:00 |
| neldogz | ObrienDave, understood. | 01:00 |
| ObrienDave | it's that stability thing :P | 01:00 |
| ObrienDave | although you might look here; http://ubuntuhandbook.org/ | 01:01 |
| neldogz | the stability based off of debian unstable? :P | 01:01 |
| Bashing-om | !tab | MeanGene1990 | 01:01 |

| k1l | neldogz: 15.04 will ship a 346.47 | 01:01 |
| neldogz | k1l, thanks!! thats good news | 01:01 |
| dadis | MeanGene1990, why are you keeping windows btw? | 01:01 |
| MeanGene1990 | i did not know that | 01:02 |

| dadis | IRC was my college education | 01:02 |
| MeanGene1990 | dadis: college class work | 01:03 |
| dadis | MeanGene1990, so you're going to donate to ubuntu for help with college? | 01:03 |
| MeanGene1990 | dadis: not sure if my other programs i use will work with ubuntu | 01:03 |
| dadis | oh ic | 01:03 |
| dadis | :| | 01:03 |
| dadis | What programs? | 01:03 |
| ObrienDave | !help | 01:04 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 01:04 |
| MeanGene1990 | dadis: ubuntu isnt helping with college | 01:04 |

| MeanGene1990 | dadis: dvdfab winxdvdauthor | 01:04 |

| rgb-one | MeanGene1990: you can use alternativeto.net to find software similar to whatever you need. | 01:06 |
| MeanGene1990 | dadis: ive always wanted to learn how to use a unix os. possibly aiming my future into computer information systems | 01:06 |
| MeanGene1990 | rgb-one: i didnt know that | 01:06 |
| dadis | MeanGene1990, Linux has plenty of DVD utilities | 01:06 |
| MeanGene1990 | i just really want to get this ubuntu going | 01:07 |
| MeanGene1990 | dadis: i didnt know that either | 01:07 |
| rgb-one | MeanGene1990: Do you have the windows install cd? | 01:07 |
| MeanGene1990 | ubottu: you still going to give me a hand with this dualboot? | 01:07 |
| dadis | what i would do is make a full system image | 01:07 |
| ubottu | MeanGene1990: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:07 |
| dadis | lmfao | 01:08 |
| rgb-one | lol | 01:08 |
| MeanGene1990 | what??? | 01:08 |
| rgb-one | MeanGene1990: it is automated | 01:08 |
| ObrienDave | MeanGene1990, unless it's a program that will ONLY run in windows, everything you need is in Linux | 01:08 |
| ObrienDave | somewhere ;) | 01:08 |
| MeanGene1990 | ObrienDave: i dont want to completely wipe windows off my computer | 01:09 |
| MeanGene1990 | ObrienDave: not yet at least | 01:09 |
| ObrienDave | yes, i know this. | 01:09 |
| k1l | MeanGene1990: we cant help you without more info in what is going on. that is why a supporter requested you to give us more infos some time ago | 01:09 |
| rgb-one | MeanGene1990: One option could be to install windows in virtualbox | 01:09 |
| dadis | MeanGene1990, don't abuse us. use your brain before you ask questions | 01:10 |
| MeanGene1990 | k1l: idk what info you need | 01:10 |
| k1l | MeanGene1990: so boot up the live-ubuntu system and provide the info in here so we can have a look on what is going on there | 01:10 |
| ObrienDave | MeanGene1990, i have Xubuntu and Win7 on dual boot. best of both worlds ;) | 01:10 |
| MeanGene1990 | i did that when i first came in | 01:10 |
| dadis | MeanGene1990, manually edit the partitions like a human being would and boot up and talk to us | 01:10 |
| k1l | <Bashing-om> MeanGene1990: We are here to help, we get you through this. Boot the livedvd -> "try ubuntu" mode -> desktop -> key combo ctl+alt+t yields a terminal .let us know when you have the terminal active. | 01:10 |
| rgb-one | ObrienDave: Maybe you can guide him | 01:10 |
| rgb-one | dadis: he doesnt know what you are talking about | 01:11 |
| k1l | MeanGene1990: we need way more technical info to get to the reason why it aborts then "it doesnt work" | 01:11 |
| dadis | He is simply having issues editing partitions using the automated tool. He needs to manually do it. | 01:11 |
| k1l | <Bashing-om> MeanGene1990: 4 primary (MBR) partition limit ? from the liveDVD provide the output of terminal command -> sudo fdisk -lu | pastebinit . | 01:11 |
| dadis | So get off your ass and get the CD and boot it MeanGene1990 | 01:11 |
| ObrienDave | dadis, being condescending does not help his situation | 01:11 |
| MeanGene1990 | i booted with the ubuntu iso disc. then i selected "install" i chose to install that third party program to be able to play media. then it asked if i want to install alongside windows and thats what i chose. | 01:12 |
| rgb-one | MeanGene1990: Alright amongst those options is to Manually partition the disk. | 01:12 |
| k1l | MeanGene1990: see what i wrote and please follow the instructions given. we need way more technical details. | 01:12 |
| Bashing-om | MeanGene1990: IF there is no partition ( 4 is the limit ) then ubuntu can not install .. right ? | 01:13 |
| MeanGene1990 | after that it asked me to choose either "auto configure partitions" or manual so i chose auto because i have no idea what im doing when it comes to partitions | 01:13 |
| rgb-one | MeanGene1990: Boot up the CD again and go to where you were before clicking to automatically partiton the disk | 01:13 |
| k1l | *sigh+ | 01:13 |
| rgb-one | MeanGene1990: What machine are you using? | 01:14 |
| k1l | MeanGene1990: what is the issue with booting into the dvd and providing us the information instead of telling us a story and we need to just guesss what could be wrong. keep in mind if we guess wrong that could lead to you erasing your disk. | 01:14 |
| MeanGene1990 | then i chose continue and it brought me to the ubuntu start up logo and told me to remove any media and hit enter. i did that and the computer restarted straight to window as if nothing had ever happened | 01:14 |
| ObrienDave | MeanGene1990, if you can't follow instructions, we can't help you | 01:15 |
| MeanGene1990 | k1l idkwhat your asking me to do | 01:15 |
| ObrienDave | <k1l> <Bashing-om> MeanGene1990: We are here to help, we get you through this. Boot the livedvd -> "try ubuntu" mode -> desktop -> key combo ctl+alt+t yields a terminal .let us know when you have the terminal active | 01:15 |
| MeanGene1990 | im on the computer now | 01:16 |

| dadis | Fronchetti1, awesome | 01:19 |
| k1l | !lubuntu | Fronchetti1 | 01:19 |

| dadis | I use XFCE tho :) but I would recommend tilers for max performance | 01:19 |
| k1l | Fronchetti1: but you might want to increase the hardware ram. | 01:19 |
| zykotick9 | dadis: i doubt many in #ubuntu would appreciate awesome ;) | 01:19 |
| dadis | zykotick9, there is no hope if no one mentions it | 01:20 |
| dadis | The action all happens at the keyboard. Thats where the intelligence lies. Tilers force you into keyboard mode increasing productivity and brain power. | 01:21 |

| MeanGene1990 | so what do i have to do? | 01:47 |
| leonic | don't i need to selec a directoy for the recover archives | 01:48 |
| * ObrienDave is way too tired to complete this right now | 01:48 | |
| MeanGene1990 | yeah but partitioning off some of those gigs for ubuntu makes a drive space? | 01:48 |
| k1l | annoymouse: well, ask the osx support then. | 01:49 |
| annoymouse | k1l: You mean the Apple guys? | 01:49 |
| annoymouse | *the Apple guys at the Store | 01:49 |
| k1l | annoymouse: that doesnt relate to ubuntu, right? | 01:49 |
| k1l | annoymouse: i dont know what support your manufacturer or the community offers you | 01:50 |
| annoymouse | k1l: Well update-motd (http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/quantal/man5/update-motd.5.html) does relate to Ubuntu | 01:50 |
| k1l | annoymouse: so the system where you want to change the motd is ubuntu? | 01:50 |
| annoymouse | And since that's what I'm looking for, perhaps someone knows of the equivalent on OS X | 01:50 |
| kirkland | annoymouse: I'm the author of update-motd, and I know no equivalent on Mac OS X | 01:51 |
| annoymouse | kirkland: That's awesome! Thanks for stopping me from wasting more time searching | 01:51 |
| kirkland | annoymouse: if you're interested in UNIX history, this post might be of interest: http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2011/10/email-i-received-from-dennis-ritchie-by.html | 01:51 |
| MeanGene1990 | anyone still with me on what i have to do with my partitions? | 01:52 |
| kyusaki | @MeanGene1990 what is the problem with your partitions? | 01:53 |
| k1l | MeanGene1990: you got 4 primary partitions there. you can only have maximum 4 primary. so you need to delete at least one partition to make a "extended" one and put the new ubuntu partitions into there. | 01:53 |
| MeanGene1990 | which should i delete | 01:54 |
| k1l | (but i am going to go afk in some minutes so i cant help you any further on this) | 01:54 |
| Bashing-om | MeanGene1990: What is generally done in this situation is to copy off the Windows' recovery partition to CD .. and then reuse that partition for ubuntu as an extended partition . | 01:57 |
| MeanGene1990 | Bashing-om: so i have to back up one of those partitions to a disc and basicly remove it and replace it with a partition for ubuntu? | 01:59 |
| MeanGene1990 | Bashing-om: how do i open a partition to see whats inside so i can back up and remove it | 02:00 |
| kyusaki | You mount it. | 02:00 |
| Bashing-om | MeanGene1990: Yeah .. there is that inherant 4 prinary partition limit to get over, The way that is done is take 1 of the prinary partitions and make it as an 'extnded' partition as a container to hold 'logical' partitions. ubuntu will happily install to a logicl partition . | 02:01 |
| MeanGene1990 | kyusaki: i think one of the partitions contains "HP tools" and only "HP tools" | 02:01 |
| kyusaki | Bloatware i suppose ? | 02:02 |
| MeanGene1990 | Bashing-om: sorry i didnt see what you had said before i sent that last message | 02:02 |
| MeanGene1990 | how would i go about doing that | 02:03 |
| kyusaki | Many recovery partitions usually contains Win 7/8 OEM with most of the fun stuff that the manufacturer wants you to have. | 02:03 |
| zykotick9 | Bashing-om: on DOS partition tables. GPT doesn't have this limitation. | 02:04 |
| MeanGene1990 | is a partition a drive? | 02:05 |
| Bashing-om | MeanGene1990: I can not tell you how to operate your system . But, if it were me I would re-purpose that HP Tools partition . | 02:05 |
| Enkidu_ak | MeanGene1990, Partitions exist on a drive. Have a look in /dev | 02:05 |
| Bashing-om | zykotick9: Yeah :) GPT runs with 128 partitions before additional steps have to be taken . | 02:07 |
| Enkidu_ak | MeanGene1990, Drives are usually represented by an abbreviated device type <sd, dm, etc>, a letter indicating order <a, b, c> and a number indicating the partition number. If you type mount without any options in term then you will see an example of this. | 02:07 |
| zykotick9 | Bashing-om: thanks, i wasn't actually aware of the 128 "limit" TIL | 02:08 |
| MeanGene1990 | Enkidu_ak: i typed mount into the term and i see what your talking about but its like spanish to me. I'm just looking for a way to install ubuntu along side windows. dualboot | 02:10 |
| Bashing-om | zykotick9: Back in the day, I learned about addressing. It is still true today .. can only see what numbers can be written . | 02:10 |
| Enkidu_ak | MeanGene1990, What have you done towards that end so far? | 02:11 |
| hanasaki | how do you make kde forget about the usb stick that was inserted? | 02:12 |
| Enkidu_ak | Ah, now I see what Bashing-om was telling you. | 02:12 |
| MeanGene1990 | Enkidu_ak: Ive downloaded, verified, burned and tried to install ubuntu along side windows three times | 02:13 |
| MeanGene1990 | Enkidu_ak: I understand what Bashing-om is saying i just need to know what to do next and how to do it | 02:14 |
| Enkidu_ak | MeanGene1990, To be clear, are you trying to install Ubuntu on the same partition as Windows or are you trying to install it to a separate partition to choose between them at boot? | 02:14 |
| Enkidu_ak | MeanGene1990, Ok | 02:14 |
| MeanGene1990 | Enkidu_ak: i will install it on the same if its possible | 02:14 |
| MeanGene1990 | Enkidu_ak: I want to be able to dualboot. | 02:15 |
| Enkidu_ak | MeanGene1990, Generally Ubuntu is installed on a separate partition in that case. I believe that Bashing-om was instructing you with that in mind, but I did come in late so I might have missed something. I've never tried to install Ubuntu on the same partition as Windows. I believe it can be done, though. | 02:16 |
| Jonno_FTW | if the admin has set /etc/dconf/db/ locks, how can I override them as a user? | 02:16 |
| Enkidu_ak | MeanGene1990, You said that you have attempted to install Ubuntu three times already. What precisely did you do? How did those attempts end? | 02:17 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Enkidu_ak - Same partition as? How does that work? Wubi died in 2013... | 02:19 |
| annoymouse | kirkland: Nice story | 02:19 |
| Enkidu_ak | SonikkuAmerica, I've never attempted it. I wasn't sure if it was still possible or not. | 02:19 |
| Bashing-om | MeanGene1990: It is a long process to "make room" for ubuntu. IO am burned out for this session, will be glad to assist in my A< .. for now prior to proceeding. defrag Windows 2 times . find the partition to be deleted, resize Windows OS - ubuntu needs at least 30 gigs for a long lasting experience - . then run Windows' check disk 2 times . Then you are ready to proceed with the ubuntu install . | 02:20 |
| MeanGene1990 | Enkidu_ak: I booted from the disc. i chose to install ubuntu. i connected to my network. then it asks if i want to install ubuntu inside windows or replace windows. i chose to install inside windows because i dont want to lose it. this is my first time ever using a unix based os. then it asks me to choose auto configure the partitions or manually do it so i chose auto and hit continue. then it brings me to the ubuntu logo and sa | 02:21 |
| Bashing-om | Enkidu_ak: MeanGene1990 We are hitting that 4 primary partition limit. presently there is no partition to instalu ubunti onto . | 02:21 |
| cluelessperson | I have a major issue. I'm installing ubuntu server on this machine, and ubuntu seems to install fine, using internet archives and repositories, but once I'm in, network unreachable? | 02:21 |
| rahulprodev | Hi, somehow all the files files starting with '.' start showing in home directory, is i need to delete them or hide them? | 02:22 |
| rahulprodev | how can i hide? | 02:22 |
| cluelessperson | rahulprodev, those are generally hidden, don't delete | 02:22 |
| cluelessperson | no clue how to hide them | 02:22 |
| rahulprodev | cluelessperson, thanks. | 02:22 |
| somsip | rahulprodev: 'hide' in what respect? | 02:23 |
| zykotick9 | rahulprodev: try ctrl+h | 02:23 |
| MeanGene1990 | Bashing-om: i understand what your saying about the 4 partition limit i just need help on what i need to do next to make this work | 02:23 |
| Enkidu_ak | MeanGene1990, I have to run for about an hour. If you are around when I get back I'll try to guide you through mounting and backing up the recovery partition if that is where you want to install at. | 02:23 |
| cluelessperson | somsip, normally they're not visible with dir | 02:23 |
| Bashing-om | rahulprodev: ley combo ctl+h to hide them in the file manager . | 02:23 |
| Bashing-om | ley/key* | 02:23 |
| === megabitdragon is now known as megabit|away | ||
| MeanGene1990 | yup | 02:24 |
| rahulprodev | somsip, I don't want to see in home dir | 02:24 |
| zykotick9 | cluelessperson: fyi, "ls" is what you'd typically use in *nix | 02:24 |
| rahulprodev | zykotick9, Bashing-om thanks i will try that. | 02:24 |
| somsip | rahulprodev: when viewed in what way? ctrl-H as zykotick9 has said, or ls -l in terminal (rather than ls -la' | 02:24 |
| rahulprodev | zykotick9, Bashing-om, somsip, thanks Ctrl+H works :) | 02:25 |

| RMRIP | ALRIGHT SO | 02:32 |
| RMRIP | Funny story | 02:32 |
| RMRIP | I may have run rm -rf /usr/share on accident | 02:32 |
| kyusaki | how? | 02:32 |
| RMRIP | I had to rm -rf /usr/share/nginx/html/subfolder | 02:32 |
| RMRIP | andddd I got a little excited with enter | 02:32 |
| kyusaki | lel | 02:32 |
| zykotick9 | RMRIP: don't worry, without root that shouldn't have done anything ;) /me assumes you used sudo | 02:33 |
| RMRIP | Let's put it this way | 02:33 |
| RMRIP | I like to live dangerously | 02:33 |
| zykotick9 | s/dangerously/foolishly/ | 02:33 |
| lotuspsychje | RMRIP: try photorec to get it back | 02:33 |
| kyusaki | So you are using the sudo access all the time? | 02:33 |
| RMRIP | Of course | 02:33 |
| RMRIP | But it's a ton of VMs | 02:33 |
| RMRIP | so if I nuke then it's kinda like okay.... who cares.... | 02:34 |
| Kill-me | aku ora ngerti | 02:34 |
| RMRIP | I tar'd up another VM of the same distro and version's /usr/share and untar'd it in the rek'd directory. A lot of icons aren't restored though. | 02:34 |
| kyusaki | You should have an script tell you ... Are you sure you want to delete this folder? | 02:34 |
| NegativeFlare | RMRIP: you really scared me there. | 02:34 |
| NegativeFlare | !rm | 02:34 |
| ubottu | The Unix 'rm' command removes files and directories from the filesystem. It is an extremly powerful tool, and you should not run 'rm' commands unless you fully understand them. Do not run arbitrary 'rm' commands you see online. For a beginning guide on using terminal commands, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal and for a cautionary story about 'rm' see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL_g0tyaIeE | 02:34 |

| NegativeFlare | cluelessperson: What can we do for you? | 02:35 |
| NegativeFlare | RMRIP: its alright, just be careful. | 02:35 |

| NegativeFlare | cluelessperson: alright, so does ifconfig show up anything? and if so, can you pastebinit? | 02:38 |
| cluelessperson | NegativeFlare, and during installation it downloads all the arhives and packages fine | 02:38 |

| NegativeFlare | cluelessperson: of course not, that's the gateway, you're not going to be able to access the machine from that :P | 03:02 |
| NegativeFlare | wait... | 03:02 |
| cluelessperson | NegativeFlare, gateway is 192.168.0.1 | 03:02 |
| NegativeFlare | yeah, I just saw that.. | 03:02 |
| NegativeFlare | cluelessperson: Are you trying to ssh into the machine? | 03:02 |
| cluelessperson | NegativeFlare, yeah, nothing | 03:02 |
| jamie_ | NegativeFlare: I have even tried iptables -F and that seemed to do nothing | 03:03 |
| NegativeFlare | cluelessperson: Do you have openssh-server installed? | 03:03 |
| cluelessperson | NegativeFlare, yes. But I can't pint 251, see apache's default page, etc. | 03:03 |
| cluelessperson | NegativeFlare, according to router, it's on .37 | 03:03 |
| NegativeFlare | cluelessperson: login into the machine, trying pinging...What!? | 03:03 |
| NegativeFlare | The router is doing this then, otherwise Linux would setup the IP | 03:04 |
| NegativeFlare | cluelessperson: What does ifconfig say on that machine? | 03:04 |
| cluelessperson | NegativeFlare, Yeah, it's being an asshole. I have the LOS set to .250 AND can access it on .250, but router says it's .36 | 03:04 |
| NegativeFlare | cluelessperson: Let's take this out of the channel, do you know how to query someone? | 03:05 |
| jamie_ | how would i use iptables to specificaly open to listen and out put on port 50624 | 03:05 |
| zykotick9 | jamie_: do you have something "listening" on that port? | 03:06 |
| jamie_ | I will once the computer can listen on it | 03:06 |
| jamie_ | to be specific i am tring to via wifi debugging | 03:07 |
| eikon81g | NegativeFlare, cluelessperson - the router is setting the ip because it is cofigured for dhcp | 03:08 |
| NegativeFlare | eikon81g: That's what I'm thinking as well | 03:08 |
| eikon81g | if it is the router then you may have to set the static ip on the router in the gui.. I know mine has to.. | 03:08 |
| jamie_ | zykotick9: I have webIDE listening on that port from firefox beta trying to communicate with a flame device | 03:08 |
| eikon81g | problem is you may have to disable dhcp across the board depending on the software/device.. | 03:09 |
| zykotick9 | jamie_: sorry, that doesn't mean anything to me... good luck. | 03:09 |
| eikon81g | maybe the router can set a static on the mac address | 03:09 |
| eikon81g | then just match it to what you are setting on the linux box | 03:09 |
| jamie_ | zykotick9: for the most part i just need to make that port open | 03:09 |
| eikon81g | g2g put in a stick of RAM I will bbl good luck all, later lotuspsychje | 03:11 |

| ser_berry | if I've already updated and I get this, am I boned or what? gnutls: version >= 3.0.21 is required for SASL "ecdsa-nist256p-challenge" | 03:18 |
| Starthunder | Is it possible for me to install Ubuntu on a headless machine, by removing the hard drive and attaching it to a different machine? | 03:18 |
| jamie_ | I have ran $sudo iptables -F and then nmap localhost and it returned all 1000 scanned ports on local host are closed... any ideas | 03:18 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ser_berry - You can still use PLAIN SASL as well | 03:18 |
| ser_berry | SonikkuAmerica: I'm aware. that's not what I asked about though | 03:19 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ser_berry - 14.10? | 03:19 |
| ser_berry | SonikkuAmerica: how can I tell? | 03:19 |
| ser_berry | /etc/debian_version says jessie/sid fwiw | 03:20 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ser_berry - [ lsb_release -r ] | 03:20 |
| ser_berry | Release: 14.04 | 03:20 |
| NegativeFlare | Starthunder: That's a hotswap, which is very difficult due to hardware differences. | 03:21 |
| rockstar_ | theme2: It seems like its working, but it only has older versions of opencv. | 03:21 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ser_berry - so you're running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS then. 14.10 should have the ECDSA SASL support, if you don't mind upgrading every 6 months | 03:21 |
| Starthunder | NegativeFlare: How difficulat are we talking? | 03:22 |
| ser_berry | SonikkuAmerica: anything I can do now? | 03:22 |
| rockstar_ | theme2: working as in I'm installing it (working in it) | 03:22 |
| NegativeFlare | Once the system is installed, swapping the HD into another machine can be done. But you may have problems when the kernel tries to find drivers, that aren't there. | 03:22 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ser_berry - you could compile the latest gnutls from source | 03:22 |
| ser_berry | hmmm | 03:22 |
| ser_berry | that sounds fun | 03:22 |

| harald_ | Hallo, spricht hier jemand deutsch? | 03:22 |
| eikon81g | lotuspsychje, can you help me for a sec? | 03:23 |

| eikon81g | I just put in another 2gb stick of ram now I have 4gb total do I need to change any settings to accommodate otherwise | 03:23 |
| Starthunder | NegativeFlare: yeah…and the headless thing makes it really hard to figure out what's going wrong. | 03:23 |
| eikon81g | thanks lotuspsychje btw | 03:23 |
| NegativeFlare | Starthunder: Exactly. | 03:24 |
| lotuspsychje | eikon81g: no | 03:24 |
| eikon81g | I checked hard info and it sees it so I know its working but I wanted to see if I needed to change anything else along the way | 03:24 |

| Starthunder | NegativeFlare: any other options? Maybe I could make a liveusb that would boot straight into an unattended installer? | 03:27 |
| === gerald is now known as Guest24385 | ||
| Starthunder | NegativeFlare: Or maybe start an SSH server and let me SSH in and do the installation? | 03:28 |
| NegativeFlare | Starthunder: Live USB, would be the best bet I think | 03:28 |
| ser_berry | so I compiled gnutls from source and now I have gnutls-cli 3.1.23 | 03:31 |
| === sins-_b is now known as sins- | ||
| Starthunder | NegativeFlare: so is it possible to make a liveusb that goes right into either a pre-configured installation or does the prompts over SSH? | 03:31 |
| ser_berry | but weechat is still telling me gnutls: version >= 3.0.21 is required for SASL "ecdsa-nist256p-challenge" | 03:31 |
| ser_berry | gnutls != gnutls-cli perhaps? | 03:31 |
| Starthunder | Indeed, ser_berry. /gnutls/ usually refers to the library. | 03:32 |
| NegativeFlare | Starthunder: Yeah, but I wouldn't know where to start off the top of my head | 03:32 |
| NegativeFlare | It would probably take a complicated bash script to do so | 03:32 |
| ser_berry | hmm | 03:32 |
| ser_berry | well this is frustrating | 03:33 |
| serendependy | Anyone have experience getting Radeon HD 8750 graphics cards working in Ubuntu 14? | 03:33 |

| ser_berry | it seems like it is! | 03:36 |
| ser_berry | I'm not really sure where to go from here | 03:37 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ser_berry - It is, just with the current version's tarball | 03:38 |

| dadis | that took all day | 03:54 |
| dadis | why didn't you do that to begin with | 03:54 |
| MeanGene1990 | dadis: it didnt leave much space so i shrunk another one | 03:55 |

| aliman | hi. guys is it reallu going to take so much to install gnome? i mean much much more then for unity or i do have a problem? | 04:29 |
| aliman | anyone? | 04:30 |
| woody123 | куку | 04:31 |
| aliman | guys is it reallu going to take so much to install gnome? i mean much much more then for unity or i do have a problem? | 04:31 |
| SchrodingersScat | !gnome | aliman | 04:37 |
| ubottu | aliman: GNOME was the default desktop environment on Ubuntu up to 10.10. To install the GNOME Shell, type [ sudo apt-get install gnome-shell ] in a !terminal. For the GNOME-based !flavor of Ubuntu, see !ubuntu-gnome | 04:37 |
| eikon81g | aliman, when you install another destop environment (gnome, xfce, etc) you can log into each environment individually at the login screen | 04:42 |
| eikon81g | there is a button on the login screen where you can choose the session you want.. | 04:42 |
| eikon81g | good luck | 04:42 |
| * eikon81g is back (gone 01:18:00) | 04:43 | |
| aliman | i am installing it by usb stick. down from ubuntugnome.org 14.10 | 04:43 |
| eikon81g | oh well then you are installing the gnome flavor of ubuntu it is basically ubuntu without unity and gnome in it's place | 04:44 |
| eikon81g | you can use your current installation and use the command from above to install the destop environment | 04:44 |
| eikon81g | then logout and choose the session for gnome | 04:45 |
| eikon81g | so your machine will have both DEs and you could choose between unity (default ubuntu de) and GNOME | 04:45 |
| eikon81g | installing GNOME from the iso as in a fresh OS install is kind of the long way around | 04:46 |
| eikon81g | hope that helps.. | 04:46 |
| aliman | i pressed erase disk and install gnome hope it wont keep unity around it should erase all | 04:47 |
| eikon81g | yea, that will just install the fresh os with GNOME as your default Desktop Environment (DE) | 04:47 |
| sunnyrain | Quite excited. I am going to remove WIndows 8.1 soon and install Ubuntu as a permanent OS! I might as well since I need to reformat my pc to GPT. Currently I've installed W8.1 in legacy MBR mode by accident :-( | 04:48 |
| eikon81g | you could dual-boot sunnyrain | 04:48 |
| === CompuDesktop is now known as Compu | ||
| sunnyrain | eikon81g: I was going to, but I figure VM and WINE should be fine | 04:49 |
| eikon81g | *should be.. some programs are buggy and or slower than running on windows just doublecheck before you get too deep :\ LOL | 04:49 |
| sunnyrain | eikon81g: Ok. Is it hard to dual boot Ubuntu with a UEFI/GPT install? I've been spoilt by the simplicity of MBR | 04:50 |
| eikon81g | if you have the hardware for it VirtualBox should be a nice fit with a clean windows image | 04:50 |
| sunnyrain | nah, really basic hardware (pentium G3240 dual core) | 04:50 |
| sunnyrain | doesn't even support hardware virtualisation I think :-) | 04:50 |
| eikon81g | well it really depends dualboot may be a better fit if you are running programs that are heavy on resources (games, etc.) | 04:51 |
| sunnyrain | yeah, stopped playing games ages ago :-) | 04:51 |
| eikon81g | that way you have a clean windows environment for the specific programs and you can still fun Ubuntu on the other partition | 04:51 |
| eikon81g | **run not fun | 04:52 |
| sunnyrain | eikon81g: you know what, that sounds much more sensible. So I will backup, make a windows 8.1 bootable usb in UEFI mode and then hopefully it will format my disk drive to GPT rather than MBR. Then after that I shall install Ubuntu in dual boot hoping it goes ok with UEFI | 04:52 |
| sunnyrain | I think I just need to make sure I don't mess with the UEFI bootlader and it should be fine (when installing Ubuntu) | 04:53 |
| eikon81g | well uefi is tricky on some machines but GRUB is the bootloader that will handle which partition boots | 04:54 |
| sunnyrain | Okie dokie. I am sure there are heaps of guides online. I'll have to read up on them since GPT is new to me | 04:54 |
| eikon81g | the drive can have multiple partition types MBR, NTFS, etc it shouldn't cause an issue with your setup | 04:54 |
| eikon81g | yea, read a few guides on dualbooting windows 8 and ubuntu, they are out there by the boatload | 04:55 |
| eikon81g | I am going to dualboot a netbook with 7 and ubuntu but I have been slacking.. all I have done is a windows 7 install with a seperate un-allocated portion of my drive to use for ubuntu | 04:56 |
| eikon81g | during the windows install I just formatted the drive, set the partition size to +/- half the drive size and installed windows BAU | 04:56 |
| eikon81g | (business as usual) | 04:56 |
| sunnyrain | yeah, Sometimes I wish I just had two seperate drives for each OS with a physical switch to boot accordingly | 04:56 |
| eikon81g | so half the drive remains unformatted at this time | 04:56 |
| eikon81g | if it's done right the partition basically allows you the same functionality no need for 2 physical drives unless the drive size is an issue.. | 04:57 |
| eikon81g | it simplifies it from the outside looking in but just remember to keep a nice backup and dig in.. if you have to scrap it and restore a backup then no big deal.. | 04:58 |
| eikon81g | the bootloader is still the key to booting individual OS's | 04:58 |
| eikon81g | !grub | 04:58 |
| ubottu | 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 | 04:58 |
| sunnyrain | Indeed. I used Linux Mint 17 for half a year. But now I think I need to give Ubuntu a chance since they have better hardware support etc | 04:58 |
| sunnyrain | I just liked the simplicity of having on;y one OS though | 04:59 |
| eikon81g | ubuntu is the biz | 04:59 |
| Aragonite | Is ext4 efficient for handling lots of small text files? I have 20gb of 100k text files on samsung ssd and file operations take sooo looong | 04:59 |
| eikon81g | it's nice but once you get it figured out it's really just about the same just make your selection at boot and your machine will operate normally in whichever os you choose | 04:59 |
| eikon81g | Aragonite, it depends some systems handle ext4, fat, ntfs filesystems differently | 05:00 |
| Aragonite | hmm it's also connected via usb3 | 05:01 |
| eikon81g | are you using the SSD as an external to a machine with a specific os on it and which? | 05:01 |
| Aragonite | yes, I have ubuntu laptops with tahr on it, ssd is connected via usb3 | 05:01 |
| eikon81g | like MACos is terrible with FAT drives.. very slow because you have to use like NTFS 3g to make it read/write compatible and it's not efficient | 05:01 |
| Aragonite | oh, 64bit os... | 05:01 |
| eikon81g | yea, i believe it will be fine.. unless someone else has an objection | 05:02 |
| eikon81g | I think ext is native to ubuntu (no additional software libraries are needed) - from what I know which is not much.. | 05:02 |
| sunnyrain | Will anyone be upgrading to 15.04 from 14.04 LTS? | 05:02 |
| eikon81g | let me look | 05:02 |
| eikon81g | !15.04 | 05:02 |
| 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 | 05:02 |
| Aragonite | to make a copy of all files ... it takes about 20 mins ... maybe something like xfs would be faster? | 05:03 |
| eikon81g | Eventually sunnyrain I am holding up for final to do my dualboot.. | 05:03 |
| eikon81g | google it is.. 1 sec | 05:03 |
| eikon81g | Aragonite, > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemsExplained | 05:04 |
| eikon81g | gives you a few pros and cons.. | 05:05 |
| aliman | downloading language packs for gnome its a pain in the ass | 05:05 |
| eikon81g | this guy did a test Aragonite - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2143159 | 05:06 |
| eikon81g | looks like ext4 had the best speeds.. | 05:06 |
| eikon81g | lol aliman what language are you looking for? not english I suppose | 05:06 |
| aliman | well english but i dont really look for a special language i just wait to install all the packs he wants. i am booting gnome right now | 05:07 |
| eikon81g | Aragonite, they are saying (which we kind of talked about) that if you don't need to use the external for a windows machine as well that ext4 is prolly your best bet | 05:07 |
| Aragonite | oh very cool thanks! | 05:08 |
| eikon81g | there are windows programs you can use to read a ext4 partition but the speeds will likely suffer | 05:08 |
| eikon81g | np glad to help I am a newcomer so I just pitch in if I can.. | 05:08 |
| Aragonite | I tried to do the same thing in windows and got some really weird errors ... about half hour into copying stuff | 05:08 |
| eikon81g | good luck | 05:08 |
| Aragonite | so i booted into linux, created ext4 partition ... copied everything there .. | 05:09 |
| Aragonite | thanks! | 05:09 |
| eikon81g | yea could be due to the fact that windows wont use the ext4 partition natively and whatever you are using to work with it is buggy | 05:09 |
| eikon81g | np hope it goes well (backup, backup, backup!) lol | 05:09 |
| Aragonite | I meant I split the ssd into ntfs and ext4 | 05:09 |
| Loshki | Aragonite: 20gb of files in one directory? | 05:09 |
| eikon81g | yea, you could do it that way too | 05:09 |
| Aragonite | haha yeah the files are all in the same directory | 05:10 |
| Loshki | If you structure them into directories, access may go much faster. | 05:11 |
| Aragonite | hmm | 05:11 |
| eikon81g | I agree plus it would be easier to organize but I am lazy.. nice call Loshki | 05:11 |
| Aragonite | but it makes it much more pain to work with! | 05:12 |
| eikon81g | if it aint broke.. don't fix it.. LOL my motto | 05:12 |
| Aragonite | especially since it's just one time deal ... it's not like I run this script every day | 05:12 |
| Loshki | It's the kind of job ocd-ers do for relaxation... | 05:13 |
| eikon81g | hopefully all goes well.. | 05:13 |
| eikon81g | I am outta here guys bye all - best of luck | 05:13 |
| eikon81g | lol | 05:13 |
| Aragonite | thanks! have a good one... | 05:13 |

| Ben64 | azizLIGHT: its not on topic here really, and can't tell the version from that picture | 05:56 |
| azizLIGHT | ah sorry | 05:56 |
| ramen69 | not sure but i think its 12.04 onward ? | 05:56 |
| ramen69 | win + ubuntu compatible screenshot and clipboard uploading tool with sftp functionality? | 05:59 |
| aliman | guys i installed the gnome right now and finished booting has restarted since 20 min ago and still didnt start yet | 06:02 |
| saurabhdare | I using ubuntu 14.04 _x86_64bit. However, I am not able to install "ubuntu-sdk". It installs using apt-get but it does not affect qtcreator. | 06:02 |
| saurabhdare | aliman, is your system looking for CD/DVD in the drive? | 06:03 |
| ramen69 | saurabhdare apt-get -f install ? | 06:04 |
| saurabhdare | ramen69, lemme try | 06:04 |
| aliman | no i booted from usb stick | 06:04 |
| ramen69 | err, when you start the pc aliman doesn anything show at all? | 06:05 |
| saurabhdare | aliman, there might be some problems regarding graphics. Try using "modprobe" from bootmenu | 06:05 |
| makara | i managed to get adb working again. I rewrote the udev rules following these instructions: http://forums.androidcentral.com/amazon-kindle-fire/148861-how-enable-adb-kindle-fire-ubuntu-linux.html | 06:10 |
| makara | but I have to be root, and nemo doesn't detect the device and allow me to copy files 21st century style | 06:11 |
| aliman | it shows nothing at all just dony start. http://imgur.com/F0v9FCR | 06:12 |
| saurabhdare | aliman, try alt+ctrl + f1, login and then startx. It is not a solution. but it will get you somewhat working solution. | 06:14 |
| aliman | i asked earlier is is recommanded to erase disk and install using encrytion and lvm and then overwrite free space for more security | 06:14 |
| saurabhdare | ramen69, nope. doesn't work. | 06:16 |
| aliman | ??? | 06:17 |
| OerHeks | please don't use startx, it is depreciated. | 06:19 |
| aliman | is it anyone free to answer me pls? | 06:19 |
| OerHeks | i think something else is the solution | 06:19 |
| OerHeks | !nomodeset | 06:19 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 06:19 |
| saurabhdare | ramen69, http://imgur.com/eyiTwaa | 06:20 |
| OerHeks | aliman, not sure you need to overwrite free space in an LVM/encrypted partition. | 06:20 |
| Ben64 | aliman: your question doesn't really make sense | 06:20 |
| Daxx2814 | Is anyone familiar with installing EverQuest into 12.04? | 06:20 |
| Ben64 | Daxx2814: ask your real question | 06:20 |
| OerHeks | Daxx2814, seems like a gold one, https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=229 | 06:21 |
| Daxx2814 | I have 12.04 running on a laptop, and I want to install EverQuest Titanium to run as a second box using Winetricks. I have EQ on an .iso, but don't know what/where to go and do next | 06:22 |
| Daxx2814 | And if I knew how to do that nifty direct-tell feature, I'd be doing that... Thanks Ben64 and OerHeks | 06:23 |
| OerHeks | Daxx2814, i would look into playonLinux | 06:23 |
| TiK | Daxx2814: look it up on wineHQ.com then mount it and run the exe maybe setup.exe or whatever | 06:23 |
| TiK | Daxx2814: it's rated gold so it runs damn near perfectly | 06:25 |
| Daxx2814 | I understand it should run fine, I'm just trying to get it installed first lol | 06:26 |
| TiK | Daxx2814: mount the iso and run the .exe | 06:26 |
| TiK | pretty simple | 06:27 |

| aliman | i just want to know if there does any difference if i encrypt it | 06:34 |
| ramen69 | akaWolf: encrypt what, my friend | 06:38 |
| akaWolf | what? | 06:39 |
| ramen69 | aliman* | 06:39 |
| ramen69 | sorry | 06:39 |
| aliman | man when i install ubuntu i have an option at erase disk and install ubuntu therr are 2 options encrypt and lvm. | 06:40 |
| ramen69 | encrypt home? | 06:40 |
| Ben64 | aliman: you need to explain more if you want an answer | 06:41 |
| ramen69 | encrypted lvm? | 06:41 |
| ramen69 | means it encrypts your drive | 06:42 |
| Enkidu_ak | ramen69: At this point you can choose to encrypt the disk which you will install Ubuntu on. If you do, then you will be prompted at boot for the password to decrypt the disk. This is separate from your login password | 06:42 |
| ramen69 | ^ | 06:42 |
| ramen69 | wasnt sure if hes trying to encrypt lvm or just /home | 06:43 |
| Enkidu_ak | ramen69: It keeps your data from being read simply by taking your disk or otherwise attempting to mount it on another system. | 06:43 |
| Enkidu_ak | ramen69: If you will have multiple users on your system it is probably better to simply encrypt /home | 06:43 |
| ramen69 | @ Enkidu_ak aliman was asking but thank you :) | 06:43 |
| Enkidu_ak | ramen69: Oh! | 06:43 |
| Enkidu_ak | aliman: Everything that I said to ramen69 :D | 06:44 |
| ramen69 | any idea how much overhead it adds Enkidu_ak i've never used it myself tbh | 06:44 |

| tumbler | hi there ... what does "apt-get deselect-upgrade" do? | 06:45 |
| ramen69 | its fine, the nsa have backdoors anyway | 06:45 |
| Ben64 | tumbler: man apt-get | 06:45 |
| Enkidu_ak | I encrypt /home on my desktop and encrypt the disk on my laptop. | 06:45 |
| ramen69 | makes sense, how often is someone going to steal a whole desktop | 06:46 |
| tumbler | i cannot run Ubuntu now | 06:46 |
| Enkidu_ak | tumbler: Is it because you ran that command? | 06:46 |
| Ben64 | tumbler: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/man8/apt-get.8.html | 06:46 |
| tumbler | Enkidu_ak, my friend ask to me | 06:47 |
| tumbler | Ben64, tx | 06:47 |
| Enkidu_ak | tumbler: Do you happen to recall which packages you changed? | 06:48 |
| ramen69 | inb4 ubuntu-base | 06:48 |
| Enkidu_ak | ramen69: Doesn't sound like his friend liked him very much :( | 06:49 |
| tumbler | yes ... i suggest you $ sudo dpkg --set-selections < /tmp/dpkglist.txt | 06:49 |
| tumbler | but the procedure says also: apt-get deselect-upgrade and i dounno why | 06:49 |
| ramen69 | tumbler: can you link the proceedure? is it a webpage? | 06:50 |
| Enkidu_ak | tumbler: What were you trying to do? You said that Ubuntu is no longer usable. What happens when you try to boot? | 06:51 |
| tumbler | http://kvz.io/blog/2007/08/03/restore-packages-using-dselectupgrade/ | 06:51 |
| ramen69 | unless you already have a list of those packages you wont have a list to restore from tumbler | 06:52 |
| tumbler | a friend of mine would want to sync two different installation ... but it has cleaned his cache ... he want to copy all packages into new distro | 06:52 |
| Enkidu_ak | tumbler: So you are operating from a package list that he provided from another installation? | 06:53 |
| tumbler | yes ... the same version and architecture however | 06:54 |
| kikrz | test | 06:54 |
| Enkidu_ak | kikrz: I can see you | 06:54 |
| Enkidu_ak | tumbler: After you ran apt-get dselect-upgrade you rebooted? | 06:55 |
| Enkidu_ak | O cam | 06:56 |
| Enkidu_ak | I can't think of anything that would break your system from that, but there are a few things that might break X | 06:56 |
| tumbler | Enkidu_ak, why? | 06:57 |
| Enkidu_ak | tumbler: Hardware differences. I'm not sure how restricted drivers might be handled in that case, for one. Graphics drivers might get screwed up. | 06:58 |
| Enkidu_ak | tumbler: Even if X did fail to start due to something like that, you should still be able to boot and log in. | 06:58 |
| Enkidu_ak | tumbler: What happens when you attempt to boot? | 06:59 |
| Appl3Kork | need help? I'm trying to get my RAID to automount to /mnt/9TB, and whenever i reboot i get "The Disk Drive for /mnt/9TB is not ready yet. Press S to skip or M to enter Recovery Mode"? | 07:00 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: Is the volume encrypted? | 07:00 |
| Appl3Kork | no | 07:01 |
| Appl3Kork | at least as far as i know | 07:01 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: What does mdadm report about the state of the raid parts? | 07:03 |
| Appl3Kork | what do you mean? what do i run to find that out? | 07:03 |
| Enkidu_ak | mdadm -D <device> | 07:04 |
| Enkidu_ak | It will take multiple devices as arguments and display details on all of them | 07:05 |
| IMeMy | hello, everyone. I have an Android tablet with a microSD inserted. I have the tablet plugged into my Linux laptop. When I run "sudo gparted", gparted can't see the device. Gparted can only see the hard drive's partitions. please help. | 07:06 |
| cfhowlett | IMeMy, you would be better served using android tools; ADB comes to mind. | 07:07 |
| Appl3Kork | ok Enkidu_ak what do you want from it? | 07:07 |
| IMeMy | cfhowlett: is it really better to do partitioning on the android tablet itself? I ask this because the FAQ of the app I'm trying to use says I should partition using Linux/Mac/Windows (i.e. some other computer). | 07:08 |
| Appl3Kork | Enkidu_ak: http://pastebin.com/uXSNkue5 | 07:08 |
| soupnanodesukar | IMeMy: take your sim card out, put it in a simcard holder, and format it on your computer that way. you can't gparted through the device. you have to do it directly. | 07:08 |
| cfhowlett | IMeMy, adb it a linux app used to manage android devices. | 07:08 |
| soupnanodesukar | or if you're rooted, you can use busybox. | 07:08 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: I don't know, actually. I'm just poking around. Maybe we will find something strange. | 07:08 |
| cfhowlett | *adb IS ...* | 07:08 |
| deper29 | IMeMy: it's also good practice to use gksudo instead of sudo for gtk apps | 07:08 |
| IMeMy | soupnanodesukar: I left my SD adapter at home. :( | 07:08 |
| Ben64 | IMeMy: you'd need to have the android device act as a Mass Storage Device to do what you're seeming to want, if it doesn't have that option, you're out of luck | 07:09 |
| IMeMy | soupnanodesukar: but i'll try cfhowlett's advice (use an app to partition) | 07:09 |
| soupnanodesukar | depending on your model, you may need root. Sometimes you'll find an option to format under the settings menu storage section. | 07:10 |
| IMeMy | Ben64, do you mean choosing between "Connect as Media device (MTP)" and "Connect as camera (PTP)"? If so, I'm connected by MTP. | 07:10 |
| Ben64 | IMeMy: no, pretty sure I said "Mass Storage" | 07:10 |

| Appl3Kork | doesn't have /dev/md0 next to it or anything | 07:15 |

| Appl3Kork | looks like the md0 has a different uuid | 07:17 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: The uuid assigned by the system is different from the one that mdadm uses to identify arrays. You want to use the system uuid listed tehre in by-uuid | 07:18 |
| Appl3Kork | ok | 07:18 |
| Appl3Kork | i just changed it in fstab gonna test it | 07:18 |

| Appl3Kork | UUID=f8c347b5-adda-49e1-ae55-a422c67d7dd0 /mnt/9TB ext4 defaults 0 0 | 07:23 |
| Appl3Kork | that's with the new uuid | 07:23 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: Odd that it mounts manually. | 07:25 |
| Appl3Kork | well so i have to do mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 then mount /dev/md0 /mnt/9TB | 07:26 |
| Appl3Kork | and it works | 07:26 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: Well, that's a different matter | 07:26 |

| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: Is the array not listed in /etc/mdadm.conf? | 07:26 |
| Appl3Kork | lemme check | 07:26 |
| Appl3Kork | i thought it was | 07:26 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: If it's not being assemble automatically then it might not be. | 07:27 |
| Appl3Kork | it shows it, but the UUID isn't the new one that we put in fstab earlier | 07:27 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: No, it should be the uuid listed by mdadm -D | 07:28 |
| Appl3Kork | ok | 07:28 |
| Appl3Kork | it labels it as ARRAY /dev/md/0 | 07:29 |
| Appl3Kork | shouldn't it be md0 not md/0? | 07:29 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: Could you pastebin mdadm.conf? | 07:29 |
| Appl3Kork | yup | 07:29 |

| OerHeks | Why shutdown when removed upstart, svetlana ? | 07:52 |
| svetlana | Enkidu_ak: I'm breaking things on test box intentionally to understand how they work. | 07:52 |
| Enkidu_ak | svetlana: Ah | 07:53 |
| svetlana | I installed another init system on it. | 07:53 |
| Ben64 | thats silly | 07:53 |
| Enkidu_ak | svetlana: That will certainly break it | 07:53 |
| Ben64 | upstart is required for ubuntu | 07:53 |
| geirha | systemd has a shutdown command too, of course. | 07:53 |
| Enkidu_ak | Yes, but I remember teh SystemV commands more easily. Habit, I guess | 07:54 |
| svetlana | I am testing how openrc works. It's packaged, therefore it's supported. It's an init system, therefore I can install all other init systems while I do this. | 07:54 |
| Enkidu_ak | svetlana: Bombs away :) | 07:55 |
| === badon_ is now known as badon | ||
| svetlana | uninstall* | 07:55 |
| TheNumb | svetlana: openrc works ok. | 07:55 |
| TheNumb | At least here in gentoo ;p | 07:55 |
| Ben64 | svetlana: not when upstart is required | 07:56 |
| svetlana | Ben64: where can I read about what it does, other than "be an init system"? other things can "be an init system", so from your response I understand upstart does other essential things. | 07:57 |
| Ben64 | apt-cache show upstart | 07:57 |
| geirha | svetlana: Anyway, if this openrc doesn't have a shutdown command, it probably has a different way of shutting down the system. Its documentation should say. | 07:59 |
| Enkidu_ak | svetlana: Otherwise you can raise elephants | 08:00 |
| Enkidu_ak | svetlana: When all else fails, that should do it | 08:00 |
| Enkidu_ak | svetlana: Just don't expect the system to come back up when you are done | 08:00 |
| cfhowlett | Enkidu_ak, ??? no manual entry for elephants ... | 08:00 |
| svetlana | :-) | 08:00 |
| Enkidu_ak | cfhowlett: Clearly a manual to raise elephants would be utterly boring | 08:02 |
| cfhowlett | Enkidu_ak, I assumed it was an obscure linux command :) | 08:03 |
| Enkidu_ak | cfhowlett: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key Consider yourself in on the joke :) | 08:04 |
| cfhowlett | Enkidu_ak, thanks. I feel so .... lEEt! | 08:05 |

| Appl3Kork | so another question Enkidu_ak if you can help | 08:08 |
| chotaz`work | how can I setup automount to ignore some devices? is this doable? Ubuntu 14.10 x64 | 08:08 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: I can try | 08:08 |
| bojan_ | I have removed and installed libreoffice on ubuntu but it is not auto integrated with desktop...How can i integrate with desktop?? | 08:09 |
| Appl3Kork | so i'm trying to get nfs working so i can stream to xbmc on my raspberry pi. Well how do i set it up to make it so that the directories /mnt/9TB/Media/Movies and /mnt/9TB/Media/Season Shows to show up? | 08:09 |
| Appl3Kork | cause i got it to the point that i can get to the ip/mnt/9TB but it only shows the Media Folder | 08:10 |
| Appl3Kork | doesn't enter it, and show Season Shows and Movies | 08:10 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: It's not visible from XBMC on that device. Can you see it those directories from another? Depending on how much stuff you have in there it might just be taking xbmc a long time to list. | 08:11 |
| Appl3Kork | it's been sitting there for 30 min now, and still nothing. I can see the directories via FTP | 08:12 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: I have a similar issue with VLC and my dlna server. If you can see the nfs mount with other software then xbmc is the culprit | 08:12 |
| Appl3Kork | hrm, it was working before i formatted the os ssd | 08:13 |
| Appl3Kork | weird, guess i'll ahve to wait for my other linux buddy | 08:13 |
| Appl3Kork | he'd know, i was just hoping to get to it tonight | 08:13 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork:It's possible that the content had been cached already. Try leaving it sitting, If it's just slow then it will work eventually and the next time it won't need to rescan the entire library | 08:14 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: If you find a way to speed it up then let me know. Maybe I can get VLC to do the same. | 08:14 |
| Appl3Kork | all i know is that with kodi/xbmc, it would automatically see the dir's and once i chose them, then it would start caching everything | 08:15 |
| Enkidu_ak | Appl3Kork: Perhaps it's on the server side then? I'm not familiar with kodi. I generally use serviio | 08:16 |
| Appl3Kork | ah gotcha | 08:17 |

| TheNumb | how did you install it? | 08:40 |
| Stanley00 | bojan_: I think the point is "slow loading", how about just speed up loading time of libreoffice 4? | 08:40 |
| === MichaelDiederich is now known as da_didi | ||
| bojan_ | TheNumb:By default libreoffice 3.5.7 was there and its worked good without any problem...Then i purged the older version and install libreoffice 4.2.6 but its loading slow For eg:all desktop options are hiding and then i need to give ctrl+alt+delete and it comes | 08:41 |
| bojan_ | stanley00:how to do that?? | 08:41 |
| Stanley00 | bojan_: you can follow this guide https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LibreOffice#Speed_up_LibreOffice | 08:42 |
| Stanley00 | bojan_: " If LibreOffice is used often, check Enable systray Quickstarter" <= this is the most important thing :D | 08:42 |

I am getting some error like "echo.c:(.text+0x2b): undefined reference to `FCGI_printf'" ... I am using the command "gcc -lfcgi -o echo echo.c" ... but the /usr/lib does contain the link "libfcgi.so" ... so what is wrong? | 08:52 |
| mcphail | nrdb: you are probably missing the "-dev" version of the package which has the header files for the include directory | 08:53 |
| geirha | nrdb: gcc options aren't really options; they're more like operators. Meaning that order matters. you have to put echo.c before -lfcgi | 08:53 |

| jesse_838374 | Hi all. Anyone here know much about btrfs on ubuntu? | 08:56 |
| stevenm | what method does ubuntu use these days to encrypt a drive? | 08:56 |
| geirha | nrdb: yeah, I've burned myself on that too; thinking -l and -o are options, which should go before any filename arguments... | 08:56 |
| cfhowlett | !btrfs| jesse_838374 | 08:56 |
| ubottu | jesse_838374: Btrfs is a new filesystem available for Ubuntu. It is currently marked as experimental, and should not be used for important data. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/btrfs | 08:56 |
| nrdb | geirha, what a pain. anyway it compiled fine now... no to get on with the real work. | 08:57 |
| jesse_838374 | Hey ubottu. Yep I realise that. I am testing it out and have come across a problem which seems a bit ubuntu specific when doing a pipe to "btrfs receive" | 08:57 |
| Enkidu_ak | stevenm: Luks. | 08:57 |
| jesse_838374 | seems a bit of a cryptic msg to me... It seems that you have changed your default subvolume or you specify other subvolume to | 08:58 |
| jesse_838374 | mount btrfs, try to remount this btrfs filesystem with fs tree, and run btrfs receive again | 08:58 |
| nrdb | jesse_838374, ubottu is a bot ... not a person | 08:58 |
| Enkidu_ak | stevenm: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Unified_Key_Setup | 08:58 |
| jesse_838374 | @nrdb haha ok thanks. one better than talking to the wall I guess :-) | 08:58 |
| nrdb | jesse_838374, yes | 08:58 |
| mcphail | jesse_838374: I don't know quite what you are trying to do, but a default install of Ubuntu using btrfs creates 2 subvolumes (@ for / and @home for /home) and mounts those separately. I don't think it changes the default subvolume of the partition which is "/" rather than "@" or "@home" | 09:01 |

| chotaz`work | Creating a Live USB with multiple Distros + Windows, is this possible? | 09:09 |
| EriC^ | chotaz`work: you can just install a bunch of distros to a usb like you do for a hdd | 09:10 |
| stevenm | Enkidu_ak, nah I need to do this manually on debian - was just wondering which method ubuntu used | 09:11 |
| chotaz`work | I wanna create a Live Flash drive for recovering for most major distros and windows7/8, I'd had to use some app to manage the bootloader however, right? I'm not very familiar with formatting and maintaining such thing but it would help me tons in everyday work. | 09:11 |
| Enkidu_ak | stevenm: It's just as ridiculously easy to do manually :) My backup drives are also using luks. No point in encrypting your disk if your backups are in cleartext | 09:13 |
| rigormortis | hello, is tere a way to hide the unecessary "details" here in XCHAT that is "xxx has quit(PING ...) " stuff? | 09:15 |
| rigormortis | (there) | 09:15 |
| stevenm | Enkidu_ak, well this is a little 13x9x5" box with a 3.5" 6TB disk (in a 5.25" trayless bay), a 3.5" LCD screen with 4 buttons and a miniITX case (http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00002121) | 09:15 |
| cfhowlett | !quietirc | rigormortis | 09:15 |
| ubottu | rigormortis: To ignore joins/parts/quits in your favorite IRC client, see http://wiki.xkcd.com/irc/Hide_join_part_messages | 09:15 |
| rigormortis | cfhowlett, thank you! | 09:15 |
| stevenm | Enkidu_ak, we're gonna ship it to customers to take backups of there servers (an initial seed) so they can ship it back to us ... if it gets delivered to the wrong place then we don't want anyone else reading the data | 09:15 |
| Stanley00 | rigormortis: try set irc_conf_mode to 1, IIRC, but you should use hexchat then, xchat is old and not mantained anymore :D | 09:16 |
| stevenm | Enkidu_ak, so I was thinking debian could startup all services *but* mounting the 6TB disk and the backup software, ask for the password via the LCD and then continue to mount and start the backup software | 09:16 |
| chotaz`work | EriC^, I've found some tools that allow em to create Multiboot USB drives, but they specify on linux distros, any idea how I could go and add win7 or 8 to it, or how it would be possible? | 09:17 |
| chotaz`work | or if* | 09:17 |
| Enkidu_ak | stevenm: This should be easy to manage. Just leave the disk unmounted, the client can mount it when it arrives. They will need to password to unlock the drive. Here is a fairly straightforward guide that addresses most of that. | 09:17 |
| Enkidu_ak | http://earlruby.org/2010/02/adding-an-external-encrypted-drive-with-lvm-to-ubuntu-linux/ | 09:17 |
| rigormortis | Stanley00, in Help>About it says that XChat 2.8.8. Although I use Lubuntu on a really old computer :P | 09:18 |
| EriC^ | chotaz`work: no idea, try asking in ##windows | 09:18 |
| Enkidu_ak | stevenm: Just adapt as needed, obviously | 09:18 |
| stevenm | Enkidu_ak, can you do this without LVM? | 09:19 |
| Stanley00 | rigormortis: xchat 2.8.9 released on 28-Aug-2010, FYI :3 | 09:19 |
| Stanley00 | rigormortis: and it's the lastest release too | 09:19 |
| Enkidu_ak | stevenm: Yes, the guide uses LVM, but that is not a requirement of luks | 09:19 |
| stevenm | ah ok great | 09:19 |
| stevenm | Enkidu_ak, seems similar to how I've done DRBD | 09:20 |
| rigormortis | Stanley00, then, I will have to upgrade to something else I guess. In the meantime is there a security disadvantage why I should not use it in this moment? | 09:20 |
| rigormortis | irc_conf_mode=1 | 09:21 |
| rigormortis | sry | 09:21 |
| cfhowlett | rigormortis, non-maintained or updated for so long IS the security disadvantage | 09:21 |
| Enkidu_ak | stevenm: Well, /dev/mapper is the same for everything :) | 09:22 |
| stevenm | Enkidu_ak, yup | 09:22 |
| Stanley00 | rigormortis: and hexchat is just like newer xchat, all config is the same :3 | 09:22 |
| rigormortis | ok then time to get rid of this, what whould you recomend to use instead? | 09:22 |
| Stanley00 | rigormortis: hexchat, I told you that :D | 09:23 |

| rigormortis | Can anyone give me a guide, for seting up an ethernet conection using CLI. I want to understand the commands for setting up eg: connections ipconfig tracert pppoeconf (the man pages are to hard to understand). Thanks!! | 10:28 |
| ikonia | if you can't understand the man pages - you're starting off with something too complex | 10:28 |
| bazhang | rigormortis, does ifconfig show eth0 | 10:29 |
| ikonia | ifconfig for example is depreciated against ip | 10:29 |
| rigormortis | yes i think ... | 10:29 |
| Pantsu | ifconfig from net-tools is | 10:30 |
| Pantsu | other implementations of ifconfig are fine | 10:30 |
| Pantsu | not that anyone uses anything but the net-tools one on gnu/linux | 10:30 |
| rigormortis | ... i am at a place (not at home) where I have 2 ISP, the 1st I had to resort to pppoeconf to set it up, the second is much easier you just plug it on a windows machine and works, but not so for my linux system. | 10:31 |
| bazhang | rigormortis, sudo dhclient eth0 | 10:31 |
| geirha | ip is superior, so I don't see any point in using ifconfig | 10:31 |
| Pantsu | rigormortis: just use networkmanager | 10:31 |
| Pantsu | it does ppp etc | 10:31 |
| emj | is there a difference between running /usr/sbin/tcpdump and a copied version at ~/tcpdump? | 10:32 |
| ikonia | emj: yes | 10:33 |
| emj | app armor or soemthing like that? | 10:33 |
| rigormortis | I will switch the cables for a moment and report back in a minute on the "ifconfig show eth0" and "dhclient eth0" i will post using pastebin. | 10:34 |
| ikonia | emj: no | 10:34 |
| ikonia | emj: why are you coping binaries from /usr/sbin to your home directory ? | 10:35 |
| huig | emj: you would have to configure the path | 10:35 |
| emj | I'm not really. I'm doing ar x tcpdump-deb; tar xf data.tar.gz usr/sbin/tcpdump; ./tcpdump .. :-9 | 10:36 |
| emj | ups put a cd in there.. | 10:36 |
| ikonia | what ??? | 10:36 |
| ikonia | what you just typed makes no sense | 10:36 |
| emj | ikonia: does this make better sense? ar x /var/cache/apt/archives/tcpdump*.deb; tar xf data.tar.gz usr/sbin/tcpdump; ./usr/sbin/tcpdump | 10:38 |
| nightfuri | I just created some unallocate space from my /home partition. when i try to create a new partition out of it am not able to choose the logical partition only primary and extended options are available | 10:38 |
| ikonia | emj: why are you not just installing the deb correctly ? | 10:39 |
| emj | anyway yes it does seem like apparmor is running on this box. So thanks I needed someone to tell me what to do next.. :-) | 10:39 |
| cfhowlett | nightfuri, mbr can only handle 4 primary parts. | 10:39 |
| ikonia | you've not even said what the problem is | 10:39 |
| ikonia | or why you're not installing the deb | 10:39 |
| emj | ikonia: The problem was that tcpdump was behaving strange, but not when in my home directory. | 10:39 |
| ikonia | just install the deb in the correct manner | 10:40 |
| nightfuri | cfhowlett, i have 1 number left for primary then so saving it(for windows in future maybe). i want to make it a logical partition. but logical is not available | 10:40 |
| cfhowlett | nightfuri, extended partition should be fine | 10:41 |
| emj | ikonia: I'm still wondering why you said "no" to my question about app armor. If you reread what I said last and consider that I already did: "apt-get install --force-reinstall true tcpdump" | 10:42 |
| emj | then it will be apparant why I was running tcpdump from my ~ | 10:42 |
| nightfuri | cfhowlett, will i able to make more partitions out of that extended partition ? | 10:42 |
| ikonia | emj: no to which question ? | 10:43 |

| helpwithbackup | Hey all. I need to backup an internal Windows HD to two USBs that I have on a computer running ElementaryOS (based off Ubuntu - that's why I'm coming to you guys for help) off a USB. What do you guys think is the best method for copying all the files from the internal HD to the USBs? | 13:41 |
| cfhowlett | helpwithbackup, sorry, but only ubuntu is supported here. ask elementary for support of their distro. | 13:42 |
| === md_ is now known as Guest68980 | ||
| helpwithbackup | cfhowlett the fact that Elementary OS is based off Ubuntu 12.04 LTS doesn't help? If it doesn't, I'll try to get a Ubuntu DVD made on another computer. | 13:44 |
| cfhowlett | !flavors | helpwithbackup, no. ONLY ubuntu support here. elementary is NOT ubuntu | 13:45 |
| ubottu | helpwithbackup, no. ONLY ubuntu support here. elementary is NOT ubuntu: !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. | 13:45 |
| helpwithbackup | Okay - sorry for bothering you all | 13:46 |
| cfhowlett | helpwithbackup, why? because every distro publisher changes the base distro in ways that ubuntu can't be held responsible for. I might add, this is also why Debian doesn't provide ubuntu support. | 13:46 |
| vbgunz | wow windows 7 performance in kvm is way better than virtualbox but performance feels slow as hell too | 13:46 |

| knob | Hey guys.. I don't know if I am missing something basic. I am trying to scp copy a file from a remote server, to the local machine. I am using scp user@ip.add.ress:/home/user/filename.sql / Yet it returns "permission denied". | 13:51 |
| BluesKaj | vbgunz, with kvm and any vm , the amount of memory and cpu assigned to the vm makes all the difference | 13:51 |
| knob | I am not sure "where" the permission is failing... the file has 664 permission... yet... trully not sure where or what is happening. Any ideas? | 13:52 |
| EriC^^ | knob: try ..... .sql / | 13:52 |
| Pici | knob: Your user doesn't have access to / If you want it in the current directory use . instead | 13:52 |
| knob | Where am I going wrong? | 13:52 |
| EriC^^ | knob: it's cause you can't write to "/" unless you use sudo | 13:52 |
| EriC^^ | knob: sorry, try ..... .sql ~/ | 13:52 |
| knob | BAM yes! EriC^^ and Pici | 13:52 |
| knob | Thank you!! | 13:52 |
| Pici | using sudo for this is probably a bad idea anyway. | 13:52 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 13:53 |
| vbgunz | BluesKaj: yeah, 2gb of memory, 2 cores on a 4690k. I don't expect it to be blazing fast but a smooth moving mouse cursor and auto resize of the display to the window would be nice | 13:53 |
| knob | Something very simple, yet it flew over my head. Now it just transfered fine with . ... which is what I really wanted. | 13:53 |
| vbgunz | BluesKaj: I just remember a time when VM's felt faster. now they're just painful to play with | 13:53 |
| knob | Now I understand I was dropping it into my local machine's root directory / , and I did not want that. I wanted the current directory. Now is all good. Thank you! | 13:53 |
| cfhowlett | vbgunz, resize to window? guest additions? or does kvm hve that? | 13:53 |
| BluesKaj | vbgunz, try the F key for full size when in the guest OS | 13:54 |
| vbgunz | cfhowlett: it's grayed out for me, playing around with some settings, and getting it not to be grayed out but checked still doesn't auto resize when the window changes size | 13:54 |
| EriC^^ | vbgunz: the whole vm's size? | 13:54 |
| vbgunz | I'll leave kvm installed, it's way way faster than virtualbox | 13:54 |
| EriC^^ | vbgunz: you might need to use grub to get that done | 13:55 |
| cfhowlett | vbgunz, I've only ever used vbox but windows runs quite well there ... | 13:55 |
| vbgunz | EriC^^: the window size | 13:55 |
| BluesKaj | vbgunz, what about networking , can you see the other pcs on your network in windows? | 13:56 |
| vbgunz | the guest in kvm doesn't automatically resize to the host window size. I remember a while back vmware player was so good you could literally play games like Warframe in it with almost no problem. I just want a faster experience. sort of jump in and out with minimal fuss | 13:57 |
| vbgunz | BluesKaj: no, I haven't tried but networking does work in the guest | 13:58 |
| BluesKaj | vbgunz, I don't mean the internet, I'm talking about the other pcs onm your LAN , if you are on one. | 13:59 |
| vbgunz | from my linux host yes, I haven't tried it with the guest | 13:59 |
| vbgunz | I just wanted to show my son something, he was real excited about something and I crushed his dream with a virtual machine. breaks my heart to do it but he needed to see | 14:00 |
| vbgunz | the performance of kvm is really impressive. no joke, it's fast when clicking on say control panel and it just opens but moving the mouse feels like theres some extra latency | 14:03 |
| BluesKaj | vbgunz, yes it's realy fast and smooth. | 14:05 |
| celexi | kvm is fine for servers but for desktop vms its quite buggy | 14:11 |
| celexi | laggy mouse, blurred graphics, no gpu accel | 14:11 |
| BluesKaj | seems like a lot of trouble bridging the ethernet just for a guest OS to see the LAN, that takes away the NM and any hopes of using my vpn on the host | 14:13 |

| tgm4883 | Rory: port forwarding? | 16:18 |
| Rory | In my mind I run some command on the NAT'd machine that sets a tunnel up to intermediate, and then I SSH to a specified port on the intermediate server, and it uses the already established SSH connection | 16:18 |
| Rory | No, I think I might mean reverse tunelling | 16:18 |

| huig | ekool, arguing is not my intention, just trying to understand it | 16:41 |
| ekool | VoidFunction: Are you able to SSH in? | 16:41 |
| ashp | ekool: awesome, can you run: `numactl --cpunodebind=0 --membind=0 sleep 120`, then ps auxw | grep sleep, find the pid, then cat /proc/$pid/status - and check what the Mems_allowed_list is set to. It should be just 0 as we membind=0 | 16:41 |
| VoidFunction | ekool: yes I can ssh in | 16:42 |
| ekool | VoidFunction: So, see if the device ID's for your drives changed and remount them, then fix the fstab. | 16:42 |
| VoidFunction | I am trying to restart my priv irc. I try to load it, it wouldn't load, then I noticed that I couldnt access the HD's or any of the correlating partitions | 16:43 |
| tgm4883 | ekool: probably worth mentioning using UUID instead of /dev/sd* | 16:43 |
| VoidFunction | what would be the best way to go about remounting them? I'm not a complete nub, but I'm newer to the nix networking world. Followed a tutorial to set everything up quite a while ago | 16:44 |

| tgm4883 | VoidFunction: the mounts aren't in fstab at all? | 16:46 |

| Gost-Perro | linset need install | 16:46 |
| VoidFunction | tgm4883: no nothing is setup in the fstab | 16:47 |
| tgm4883 | VoidFunction: literally the word disk | 16:47 |
| tgm4883 | VoidFunction: that is odd | 16:47 |
| ekool | VoidFunction: I think what happened is that your devices namees or ID's have changed. YOu just need to find the new ones (or use the UUID) and fix the fstab. This can happen sometimes after a kernel upgrade or if hardware has changed. | 16:47 |
| VoidFunction | fdisk -l lists all of them | 16:47 |
| tgm4883 | ekool: that wouldn't remove them from fstab | 16:47 |
| VoidFunction | they physically moved my box...the letter I received | 16:47 |
| ekool | VoidFunction: mount them by hand and then add them to the fstab after you have tested it. | 16:47 |
| ekool | tgm4883: No it would not. That is another issue. | 16:47 |

| annsti | hello. I got some problems with gnupg. I installed gnupg2 and now it ask all the time for my passphrase if i want to decrypt a file that is encrypted with my key. how to make it not asking and just decrypting instead? | 17:07 |
| bekks | annsti: Thats a feature. Other everyone stealing your PC would be able to decrypt your files. | 17:07 |
| annsti | how to disable that feature | 17:07 |
| annsti | my harddrive is encrypted. i do not need that feature | 17:08 |
| bekks | annsti: Obviously you need it, since you installed and used gnupg. | 17:08 |
| annsti | what i mean is that i do not need the feature to ask for the passphrase. I want the passphrase unlocked but that does not seem to work | 17:09 |
| OerHeks | annsti, without password question, what is the use of gnupg2 within an encrypted volume? | 17:11 |
| huig | annsti: gnupg2 if not specified otherwise uses symmetric encyption. in symmetric encryption you generate a key and with that key encrypt (and decrypt) the data. well, that key is obtained from the passphrase | 17:12 |
| huig | that is why you need a passphrase | 17:13 |
| annsti | ok, let me more specific please. I create a gpg-key and encrypt a file with that key. I now want to decrypt that file -> gnupg2 asks for the passphrase. I thought that passphrase gets unlocked when logging into the desktop session so i do not have to enter it every time | 17:14 |
| XposWinU | daftykins: problem with alsamixer is that regardless what values I change, they jump back to original as soon as I scroll the master volume. | 17:15 |
| tos-1 | annsti: You are probably looking for something linke gnupg-agent | 17:15 |
| daftykins | ah well. | 17:15 |
| huig | annsti: in that case encryption would be useless. because only having your desktop session with a key would solve it all | 17:15 |
| MonkeyDust | annsti or is seahorse useful? | 17:15 |

| ioria | XposWinU : http://askubuntu.com/questions/50067/howto-save-alsamixer-settings | 17:16 |
| huig | annsti: why would you want something encryped that for decrypting it you only have to type a command withouth a passphrase or anything else? | 17:16 |

| annsti | the passphrase gets unlocked - i can see that in seahorse. but it is still asking... | 17:18 |

| huig | daftykins, i had a problem with Broadcom cards two days ago..and my choices were b43 or wl. the same choices he has. he already tried b43 withouth luck so i am suggesting wl | 18:17 |
| ioria | maybe legacy driver | 18:17 |
| diego_ | daftykins: ioria huig I see. I need to set up the wireless and try that. I'll come back to tell you the outcome. | 18:17 |
| huig | https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/b43 says wl | 18:18 |
| huig | as an alternative to b43..an it says b43 supports it "partially" | 18:18 |
| vieira | Hello, I was trying to autoremove old kernels. I commented the two lines in the NeverAutoremove section of /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove but after running /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal the apt-get autoremove still says that there is nothing to remove | 18:18 |

| jathan | Hello Ubuntu channel. Does someone know how can I redirect one domain to another domain with ssl certificate using Apache 2.4 in Ubuntu 14.04 please? | 18:44 |
| jathan | I am tring with virtual host conf and .htaccess | 18:44 |
| jathan | Trying I mean. | 18:45 |
| MonkeyDust | jathan are you running a server? | 18:47 |
| jathan | Yes | 18:48 |
| jathan | It is web server | 18:49 |
| jathan | I did the ssl part without problem | 18:49 |
| Gigs- | I'm trying to boot into single user mode, I added single to the boot options, and it actually does boot single user, I get a root prompt for 2 seconds then the screen goes black (or flashes back to an upstart log output if I turn quiet off). There's no shell on F2 F3 etc either | 18:49 |
| MonkeyDust | jathan there's also #ubuntu-server | 18:49 |

| Bashing-om | Gigs-: What distro are you running ? as "run levels" are not applicable to ubuntu / I boot to terminal with the boot parameter 'text' . | 18:57 |
| Gigs- | I can try text instead of single | 18:57 |
| Gigs- | 14.04.02 | 18:57 |
| Bashing-om | Gigs-: K | 18:57 |
| Gigs- | the weird thing is I get the root prompt for like 2-3 seconds | 18:57 |
| Gigs- | I actually ran df -h once before it went away | 18:58 |
| Gigs- | so it's a fully responsive prompt, just that screen sort of pops up over it | 18:58 |
| daftykins | got the root prompt how? | 18:58 |
| Gigs- | by adding single to the boot params | 18:58 |
| Gigs- | I get a working root prompt that only lasts like 3-4 seconds | 18:58 |
| Bashing-om | Gigs-: Yeah, that too is of concern, let us see what results with booting with a known boot parameter. | 18:58 |
| Gigs- | then the screen pops over to either a black screen or debug output if I take quiet off | 18:59 |
| Gigs- | and no terms on F2 F3 etc | 18:59 |
| Gigs- | ok I will try text instead of single | 18:59 |
| Gigs- | it's this computer so I have to log off | 18:59 |
| daftykins | Gigs-: yeah single isn't standard for ubuntu i don't think, use text as mentioned if you want to avoid X starting | 18:59 |
| putane | i wonder if it was possible to use more than one distro with one root basically libcurses.so is libcurses.so so why not make it possible to use whatever you have with any distro .. | 19:02 |
| daftykins | putane: nope due to differing versions causing issue. | 19:04 |

| Thvmh | Is it a good option to install a virtual environment on my ubuntu machine so I can run cad software like solid works? | 19:53 |
| EriC^^ | no | 19:53 |
| EriC^^ | i guess | 19:53 |
| EriC^^ | never tried it but it's the general consensus i think | 19:53 |
| Thvmh | I need it for my study... | 19:53 |
| EriC^^ | Thvmh, why don't you dual boot? | 19:53 |
| ObrienDave | it works ;) not very well, but it works | 19:54 |
| ObrienDave | dual boot is better for SolidWorks | 19:54 |
| Thvmh | I´ve had problems with dual booting. Especially with windows 8 and ubuntu | 19:55 |
| EriC^^ | what problems? | 19:55 |
| ObrienDave | !uefi | 19:56 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 19:56 |
| ObrienDave | that's why ^^^ | 19:56 |
| Thvmh | It booted in grub, then booted in the windows bootloader | 19:56 |
| Thvmh | So there where 4 options | 19:56 |
| EriC^^ | did you use wubi? | 19:57 |
| Thvmh | Nope | 19:57 |
| EriC^^ | ok good | 19:57 |
| EriC^^ | you mean you got the grub menu, with ubuntu and windows? | 19:57 |
| ObrienDave | wubi needs to die a slow, painful death ;p | 19:57 |
| EriC^^ | when you press ubuntu what happens? | 19:57 |
| Thvmh | Wubi doesn´t like windows 8 | 19:57 |
| Thvmh | It went in to the windows 8 bootloader | 19:58 |
| ObrienDave | win8 does not like wubi | 19:58 |
| EriC^^ | are you sure it was grub? was it purple? | 19:58 |
| Thvmh | Yes | 19:58 |
| Thvmh | It was a weird mess | 19:58 |
| EriC^^ | that's really odd | 19:58 |
| EriC^^ | try dual booting again, most likely you can sort it out | 19:58 |
| Thvmh | But i´ll go and try it again maybe I´m in more luck this time | 19:58 |
| ObrienDave | read the UEFI instructions before you attempt it | 19:59 |
| Thvmh | I don´t have an UEFI bios | 19:59 |
| Thvmh | Only my server has that | 19:59 |
| EriC^^ | Thvmh, win8 wasn't preinstalled? | 20:00 |
| Thvmh | Nope | 20:00 |
| EriC^^ | ok, should be pretty straight forward | 20:00 |
| Thvmh | Any good tutorials to follow? | 20:00 |
| EriC^^ | not really, just partition yourself in the Something else menu.. | 20:01 |
| EriC^^ | hmm | 20:01 |
| EriC^^ | !installing | 20:01 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 20:01 |
| EriC^^ | Thvmh, just make sure you remove fast boot in windows8 | 20:02 |
| Bashing-om | Thvmh: Make sure Windows does not take up all 4 of the primary partitions ( BIOS based system ) . | 20:02 |
| Thvmh | Thanks for the tips! I´ll go and try it. If anything goes wrong you´ll hear from me! | 20:05 |
| AfterDarkness | hello, how to fix thumbnails failing to generate? | 20:06 |
| owl_ | flash crashes when I resize the video on youtube in firefox, please help me help myself | 20:07 |
| marianne_ | hi guys... I would like a little input. I want to buy an older (1-2 years) laptop and i was wondering what the best brand is to install ubuntu on. | 20:09 |
| todd__ | Any brand should work | 20:09 |
| bprompt | ditto | 20:09 |
| Dewin|work | Some manufacturers even sell laptops preloaded with Ubuntu | 20:10 |
| todd__ | Buy a cheap SSD to throw in a laptop and your set. | 20:10 |
| marianne_ | todd__: I had a sony a while back that was pretty good, but, yeah, I'm looking more that the HCL this time and i seem to have run into a dead end... hence the question | 20:10 |
| Dewin|work | marianne_: What's your goal for the laptop? | 20:11 |
| todd__ | ^^what he said | 20:11 |
| ObrienDave | get as powerful a computer as you can afford | 20:11 |
| marianne_ | Dewin|work: basically just surf email and stuff.. nothing heavy (yeah, i was told I need to be "part of the family") | 20:12 |
| ObrienDave | who's family? | 20:12 |
| todd__ | If thats all you want then just about ANY laptop will seriously be fine | 20:12 |
| todd__ | Save like $60 for a cheap SSD to throw in a laptop and really have it fly | 20:12 |
| marianne_ | ObrienDave: mine, they complain because I'm not sitting out there with them at night watching tV | 20:13 |
| Dewin|work | Yeah, there's absolutely no excuse for not having an SSD in a laptop. | 20:13 |
| Dewin|work | Faster? More reliable (especially on a system that's being jostled about constantly)? Less power draw? All wins. | 20:13 |
| marianne_ | do most models accept a SSD? | 20:14 |
| AfterDarkness | what about price? | 20:14 |
| ObrienDave | until it takes a dump quicker than a HD | 20:14 |
| todd__ | All models will accept an SSD | 20:14 |
| Dewin|work | Almost* all models | 20:14 |
| marianne_ | I can go about $300 so I was think ing used or referb | 20:14 |
| Dewin|work | most that don't already have one though (some 'ultrabooks' have the SSD storage pretty much saudered into the system rather than a separate removable device) | 20:14 |
| todd__ | SSDs don't necessarily take a dump quicker than a typical spinning hard drive | 20:14 |
| AfterDarkness | i dont think buying a used or referb ssd or hdd is a good idea | 20:15 |
| Dewin|work | I convinced my work to go to SSDs for all of our laptops after doing 3 HDD replacements in a year. | 20:15 |
| marianne_ | I would probably get an external SSD | 20:15 |
| todd__ | Why | 20:15 |
| marianne_ | to be able to keep my stuff separate | 20:16 |
| todd__ | Get a spinning external hard drive and use an SSD as an internal drive | 20:16 |
| Dewin|work | 120GB Samsung 850 Evo SSD is $70. | 20:16 |
| marianne_ | I know getting used or referb might not be a good idea 'cuz you might be getting someone elses issues | 20:16 |
| Dewin|work | if you need additional storage beyond that, spring for a bigger model or buy an external 1+ TB drive | 20:17 |
| ObrienDave | 4tb at walmart, $139 | 20:17 |
| marianne_ | so which brand would you guys choose? | 20:17 |
| todd__ | Never buy a used hard drive. I have 3 5TB seagate external drives for backup purposes | 20:17 |
| ObrienDave | AND they are WD NAS drives | 20:17 |
| evad4b | I got an 5 year old probook 6450b on newegg for 200$ and it has a 128ssd and this thing is fast. | 20:18 |
| diphtherial | hey, i've been having an issue recently on my ubuntu server installation on a VPS where it keeps reporting that i'm out of space, yet i've run df and i should have plenty | 20:18 |
| todd__ | Most would say samsung. I say get whatever SSD you want | 20:18 |
| evad4b | First time running a laptop with a ssd. I cant believe the difference. | 20:18 |
| ObrienDave | diphtherial, ask in #ubuntu-server | 20:18 |
| diphtherial | my /tmp partition is kind of small, though. here's the output of df -h: https://dpaste.de/xORj | 20:18 |
| diphtherial | ObrienDave: ah, alright; thanks | 20:19 |
| todd__ | I have 6 PNY SSDs and one OCZ vector 150 and honestly the difference between them is only noticable in benchmarks | 20:19 |
| === gusnan is now known as Guest78362 | ||
| teward | diphtherial: restart the server, /tmp should wipe | 20:19 |
| guite | Hi everyone, I’m currently trying to compile a kernel module (btusb) and it seems I have a problem with the linux-source version that doesn’t fit the kernel version of my computer => https://bpaste.net/show/51c10237a271 | 20:19 |
| Dewin|work | todd__: For buying one off the shelf, the difference probably isn't huge (save for reliability), but some of the 'bundled with hardware' SSDs are surprisingly slow in my experience. | 20:19 |
| teward | ObrienDave: they can also ask here and get support (although server help does usually go elsewhere, yes) | 20:19 |
| guite | as you can see, my version of the kernel is 3.13.0 and the kernel sources I have retrieved with « apt-get install linux-source » is 3.13.11 | 20:20 |
| diphtherial | teward: sounds reasonable. my /tmp directory doesn't actually contain anything, though...i'll give it a shot in any case | 20:20 |
| todd__ | What is surprisingly slow? | 20:20 |
| teward | diphtherial: i'll help ou in -server now, but i asked you a q there. lets not crosspost anymore | 20:20 |
| Dewin|work | todd__: SSD performance | 20:20 |
| marianne_ | think I'm going to tool around newegg and see what they have... | 20:20 |
| ObrienDave | teward, well, as soon as they mention server.... | 20:20 |
| AfterDarkness | does anyone know how to fix nautilus not generating thumbnails? for videos. always fail | 20:20 |
| marianne_ | thanks guys, you gave me a starting point | 20:20 |
| diphtherial | teward: apologies | 20:20 |
| todd__ | I meant more like what was the benchmarks of said slow benchmarks | 20:20 |
| Dewin|work | We did an order of Dell laptops at my work. Only a couple models could feasibly be configured with an SSD without going completely against the rest of our specifications, so I ordered the others with the cheapest HDD option they had and swapped it out for SSDs from Newegg the moment they arrived. The speed difference was noticeable. | 20:21 |
| Dewin|work | No benchmarks, just subjective data. | 20:21 |
| === Guest78362 is now known as gusnan | ||
| todd__ | Only time I have ever seen a slow SSD was when it was set to IDE mode or like the desktop I am on now where my crappy Asus motherboard has a shotty AHCI controller | 20:22 |
| === cdanoff_ is now known as cdanoff | ||
| Dewin|work | todd__: Oh, it was still substantially faster than spinning rust, just... noticeably slower than the systems I manually installed SSDs in ;) | 20:23 |
| todd__ | Ok lol. Wasn't trying to start an argument...was just curious is all | 20:23 |
| Dewin|work | but I suspect most of the performance differences between similiar-tiered SSDs in a similar price range are minimal | 20:24 |
| Dewin|work | Now, if you go enterprise grade it's an entirely different beast, but that's also expensive. | 20:24 |
| RudeViper | hey guys - I have a really big problem - I am running ubuntu 14.04 server and have installed xfce4 and lightdm on it for when I need the gui - however when I tried to login I found two problems - it won't take my password for either account I have one it via the xfce login (but it will via cli and over ssh) and one of the accounts is showing up with my full name and not user name. Any idea how to fix this????? | 20:25 |
| todd__ | True that. Although for most people there is almost zero reason to have a SLC SSD | 20:25 |
| Dewin|work | (when it's a PCI-E card that's internally doing 128GBx10 RAID 0, it's going to blow anything SATA-based out of the water.) | 20:25 |
| todd__ | No doubt. All comes down to what you need your system to do | 20:26 |

| ubottu | neldogz: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 21:06 |
| Thvmh | lotuspsychje: Just a fresh install. Last time I installed the amd drivers I only got a black screen... | 21:07 |

| ponyofdeath | hi, how can I pin the package from my local repo to be preferred? https://bpaste.net/show/6ae9f9380798 | 21:09 |
| Thvmh | Yeah | 21:09 |
| lotuspsychje | Thvmh: 12.04? | 21:09 |
| Thvmh | lotuspsychje: 12.04 was the last one without any problems | 21:09 |
| lotuspsychje | !pinning | ponyofdeath | 21:09 |
| ubottu | ponyofdeath: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 21:09 |

| neldogz | lotuspsychje: nomodeset is set and i ran update-grub but still no dice.. I am going to try and unininstall the nvidia driver from recovery mode | 21:13 |
| lotuspsychje | neldogz: cool, good luck! | 21:13 |
| neldogz | lotuspsychje: driver uninstalled, all nvidia* removed... rebooted and still black screen with mouse cursor | 21:16 |
| lotuspsychje | neldogz: you dont have dualboot or something right? | 21:16 |
| neldogz | How can Nvidia put out a driver that will brick your system? | 21:16 |
| neldogz | lotuspsychje: no dualboot.. this is my main machien | 21:16 |
| lotuspsychje | neldogz: secureboot and fastboot disabled also? | 21:17 |

| lotuspsychje | neldogz: how about loading a previous kernel from grub? | 21:18 |
| neldogz | lotuspsychje: good idea, will try | 21:18 |
| lotuspsychje | neldogz: you could try sudo apt-get install nvidia-current | 21:18 |
| lotuspsychje | daleus: maybe thats more a question for the ##networking guys | 21:19 |
| neldogz | lotuspsychje: .23 kernel failed to load aswell | 21:19 |
| neldogz | lotuspsychje: will try nvidia-current | 21:19 |
| daleus | lotuspsychje: Yea, probably! I just hit up ubuntu because there's a lot of users and thought possible that more likelyhood of being users from CZ here! Cheers | 21:19 |

| MirodroidU2 | ۶ૈ ۜ ᵒ̌▱๋ᵒ̌ )۶ૈ=͟͟͞͞ ⌨`ワ°)・;’. | 21:46 |
| jhutchins | anew: So you're trying to do something like update iptables through the web browser? | 21:46 |
| anew | no i'm trying to execute a (any) perl script via php | 21:46 |
| anew | on the server | 21:47 |
| MirodroidU2 | oniongirl, thats a toughie... the neweripads use HSF+ or some other encryption for file transfers | 21:47 |
| jhutchins | anew: Wow. Really, really the wrong approach. | 21:47 |
| MirodroidU2 | so it is very difficult to replicate. | 21:47 |
| oniongirl | im using an ipad 2 | 21:47 |
| lasdam1 | not a critical thing, but still pretty annoying: I think only _sometimes_ and seemingly randomly (= I don't know what causes it) I have while having the cursor over a scrolling bar to hold down left click and not move the cursor for about 1 sec before I can start scrolling, and the same for marking text. | 21:47 |
| lasdam1 | meaning: usually these functions works instantly when left clicking, but seemingly randomly I all of a sudden have to hold it down for 1s for these functions to work. | 21:47 |
| anew | ok so what should be done | 21:47 |
| jhutchins | anew: I believe there's a mod-perl CGI handler for perl. | 21:47 |
| k1l_ | anew: why you want that to run sudo? | 21:47 |
| jhutchins | anew: https://perl.apache.org/ | 21:48 |
| MirodroidU2 | oniongirl, check out WineHQ and find out which is the best itunes compatable with wine that will work for your ipad | 21:48 |
| lasdam1 | I should add a question to those sentences of mine: anyone know what this is? | 21:48 |
| anew | what no | 21:48 |
| anew | everything is in php | 21:48 |
| DerBrudi | how can i test if i have the right driver installed to use compiz ? | 21:48 |
| anew | just need to know what line to put in sudoers | 21:49 |
| MirodroidU2 | oniongirl, i have similar issues with my Itouch.. and mine is NOT new. | 21:49 |
| teward | oniongirl: you can't - there's no mechanism that works | 21:49 |
| oniongirl | MirodroidU2, It's mounting but it should be mounting 2 differnt folders but its only mounting the one. | 21:49 |
| jhutchins | lasdam1: It sounds like your system is "hanging" occasionally. That could just be load, but it's also a possible symptom of hard drive failure (the system gets stuck waiting for disk IO). | 21:49 |
| lotuspsychje | DerBrudi: ubuntu version and graphics card chipset? | 21:49 |
| teward | oniongirl: there's no mechanism that works reliably with the iOS. And most videos there are DRM controlled | 21:50 |
| jhutchins | lasdam1: I would install and enable smartmontools and watch your logs for disk errors. | 21:50 |
| jhutchins | !smartmontools | 21:50 |
| teward | oniongirl: and this is confirmed with an iPhone 5, an iPod Touch 4th gen, 5th gen, and an iPhone 6. (on 14.04, and 14.10) | 21:50 |
| MirodroidU2 | teward, you can put non-DRM videos on a apple product... but you still need itunes to transfer them | 21:50 |
| lotuspsychje | !info smartmontolls | lasdam1 tnx to jhutchins | 21:50 |
| ubottu | lasdam1 tnx to jhutchins: Package smartmontolls does not exist in utopic | 21:50 |

| anew | anyone? should just be a one line sudoers edit | 21:51 |
| teward | MirodroidU2: irrelevant, point was old hardware and new hardware don't work | 21:51 |
| DerBrudi | it is 14.04. lts (gnome3) with an gforce gtx260 | 21:51 |
| teward | MirodroidU2: since 4th gen is several years old too | 21:51 |
| MirodroidU2 | pointing out the issue isnt anything new | 21:51 |
| MirodroidU2 | also it is not a ubuntu only issue | 21:51 |
| teward | MirodroidU2: and you'r eright non-DRM *can* be loaded, but if they exist in the iPhone's memory, unless they were put there by iTunes and non-DRM, they're likely DRM'd | 21:51 |
| jhutchins | lasdam1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools | 21:51 |
| lotuspsychje | DerBrudi: can you sudo lshw -C video and paste whats behind driver= | 21:51 |
| teward | oniongirl: MirodroidU2: the unfortunate problem here is you'll need Windows to really work with the thing right, or a Mac. (Windows VM could work, but you will run into library sync clashes) | 21:52 |
| teward | oniongirl: but MirodroidU2 is right - it's not a new issue, it's existed since a long time with Apple mobile devices | 21:52 |

| lotuspsychje | AngryGoose_: try fix broken packages from grub recoverymode | 21:55 |
| AngryGoose_ | How? | 21:55 |
| lotuspsychje | !recovery | AngryGoose_ | 21:55 |
| ubottu | AngryGoose_: If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode. For instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode | 21:55 |
| lotuspsychje | AngryGoose_: if you want more stable, try 14.04.2 LTS | 21:55 |
| AngryGoose_ | Well most things are loading fine. I can get to the desktop almost, other users load fine. How can I downgrade? | 21:56 |
| AngryGoose_ | Just back up everything and reinstall? | 21:56 |
| DerBrudi | i remember enabling some "advanced effects" in earlier versions, but i dont know where it was. | 21:56 |
| lotuspsychje | AngryGoose_: yes, you cant downgrade, fresh install is reccomended | 21:56 |

| MirodroidU2 | oniongirl, an idea is unless you need the videos on you you could stream them using a plexserver | 21:57 |

| thethrillgh | yes it doesnt show in grub | 22:00 |
| lasdam1 | jhutchins, lotuspsychje: well, I think you may have misunderstood, and I may have explained it badly, the effect doesn't happen on and off at random, the effect stays with me for a long period of time. so right now it will take always the same amount of time, approx 1s, for the function to work. then at some later time it will always instantly | 22:00 |
| lasdam1 | work. also I'll make sure to check your suggestions out, and I don't know much about hard drives, but just to mention it: I do use a relatively new, 1-2y, SSD, and I was kinda under the impression that they lasted longer and/or at least had less IO/segment errors and stuff like that. | 22:00 |

| lasdam1 | lotuspsychje: (kl. 23.47 +0200) lasdam1: not a critical thing, but still pretty annoying: I think only _sometimes_ and seemingly randomly (= I don't know what causes it) I have while having the cursor over a scrolling bar to hold down left click and not move the cursor for about 1 sec before I can start scrolling, and the same for marking text. | 22:03 |
| lasdam1 | (kl. 23.47 +0200) lasdam1: meaning: usually these functions works instantly when left clicking, but seemingly randomly I all of a sudden have to hold it down for 1s for these functions to work. | 22:03 |
| thethrillgh | eric^^ I had 3 partitons with windows 8.1 and 10 in different partitions.. they worked fine and I managed them with windows boot manager | 22:03 |
| sheap | is there a way to set a bootable partition in the preseed? | 22:04 |
| lotuspsychje | lasdam1: you got lags when you try to scroll? | 22:04 |
| lasdam1 | lotuspsychje: no | 22:04 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, ok type sudo efibootmgr -v | 22:06 |
| lotuspsychje | lasdam1: try a tail -f /var/log/syslog and tail -f /var/log/dmesg and try that scrollbar, maybe there are usefull errors | 22:06 |
| lotuspsychje | sheap: looking rather old but: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/installation-guide/i386/preseed-using.html | 22:07 |
| thethrillgh | eric^^ it says efibootmgr command not found | 22:07 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, ok, type ls -l /sys/firmware/efi | 22:07 |

| AngryGoose_ | So Yeah recovery mode didn't do much | 22:08 |
| thethrillgh | oh ok how do i fix that | 22:08 |
| AngryGoose_ | Still can't log in to user | 22:08 |
| thethrillgh | or is there a fix?? | 22:08 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, do you have an efi partition? | 22:08 |
| lotuspsychje | AngryGoose_: what did you try? failsafeX or fix broken packages? | 22:08 |
| thethrillgh | I dont know if I have one | 22:08 |
| AngryGoose_ | Fix broken packages | 22:08 |
| thethrillgh | how do i check that | 22:09 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, type sudo parted -l | 22:09 |
| lotuspsychje | AngryGoose_: try failsafeX or try to load a previous kernel of ubuntu (from grub) | 22:09 |
| AngryGoose_ | Alright | 22:09 |
| thethrillgh | eric^^ theres no efi in the table shown | 22:10 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, ok, i guess win8 and win10 are installed in legacy mode | 22:10 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, you can manually add the entries in grub using /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 22:11 |
| thethrillgh | eric^^ ok that explains why it only shows the hdd and not uefi ubuntu in the ubuntu menu | 22:11 |
| thethrillgh | what entries should I add | 22:11 |
| EriC^^ | this is a sample win8 entry http://termbin.com/l4ox | 22:13 |
| BBLLCC | do I have to pay to become a member of github? | 22:13 |
| EriC^^ | ask ##windows maybe about which file to load for win10 | 22:13 |
| BBLLCC | there is a "step 2, select your plan" icon | 22:13 |
| lotuspsychje | !git | BBLLCC | 22:13 |
| ubottu | BBLLCC: git is a distributed revision control/software code management project created by Linus Torvalds. For more information, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_(software) | 22:13 |
| lasdam1 | lotuspsychje: I'll remember that for a later time, and as a general rule to check for certain problems, to check syslog - thanks. but for now the click delay is gone, so I'll have to wait for it to get bad again :P thanks alot tho for your time and for the tip(s) (and jhutchins too) | 22:13 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, try typing grub, and see if you get a grub prompt | 22:13 |
| lotuspsychje | lasdam1: ok good luck mate | 22:14 |
| AngryGoose_ | So I ran failsafeX and it looks like a progblem with XOrg | 22:14 |
| thethrillgh | ^^eric alright so would adding those entries show windows 8 in boot? | 22:14 |
| lotuspsychje | AngryGoose_: that could be yes | 22:14 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, yeah, but you need to get your windows partition hdX,msdosY | 22:14 |
| AngryGoose_ | How would I fix that? | 22:14 |
| lasdam1 | lotuspsychje: cheers man :) | 22:14 |
| lotuspsychje | !xorg | AngryGoose_ | 22:14 |
| ubottu | AngryGoose_: X.Org is an implementation of the X Windows System, and is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart it on an Ubuntu system, type 'sudo service lightdm restart'. To fix screen resolution or other X.Org problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution . See also !xorgconf | 22:14 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, if you press c in grub you'll get a grub prompt, and you can type ls -l to get the partitions, and ls (hdX,msdosY) to check what's in it | 22:15 |
| AngryGoose_ | Here is a log file from XOrg http://termbin.com/rd92 | 22:15 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, you also need to run sudo update-grub after you add the entry in 40_custom | 22:15 |
| vieira | Hello, does Ubuntu 13+ remove old kernels? | 22:15 |
| thethrillgh | eric^^ so what would i be looking for in ls(hdx, msdosY) | 22:15 |
| lotuspsychje | !nomodeset | AngryGoose_ you can also try this | 22:16 |
| ubottu | AngryGoose_ you can also try this: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 22:16 |
| vieira | I have seen that there is a /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal | 22:16 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, bootmgr i guess | 22:16 |
| lotuspsychje | vieira: on wivh ubuntu version are you? | 22:16 |
| lotuspsychje | wich | 22:16 |
| vieira | 14.04LTS | 22:17 |
| lotuspsychje | vieira: i clean out stuff with bleachbit myself | 22:17 |
| thethrillgh | eric^^ so if i find bootmgr would that take me into windows? | 22:17 |
| BBLLCC | free as in freee ... lol | 22:17 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 22:17 |
| lotuspsychje | vieira: not sure if thats the most reccomended way :p | 22:17 |
| AngryGoose_ | Okay how can I just transfer all of my home directory to an external HDD through cli only? | 22:17 |
| lotuspsychje | !dd | AngryGoose_ | 22:18 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, you should probably ask in ##windows as they'd know what you need to do | 22:18 |
| lotuspsychje | !info dd | 22:18 |
| ubottu | Package dd does not exist in utopic | 22:18 |
| EriC^^ | !info core-utils | 22:18 |
| ubottu | Package core-utils does not exist in utopic | 22:18 |
| vieira | lotuspsychje: I was under the impression that since 13.04 it would clean after itself | 22:18 |
| thethrillgh | eric^^ alright thanks | 22:18 |
| vieira | from what I understand it might keep one or sometimes two older kernels around | 22:19 |
| vieira | but it will not keep like tens of kernels | 22:19 |
| EriC^^ | AngryGoose_, sudo cp -a /home/<your user> /path/to/mounted/hdd | 22:19 |
| vieira | when you install a new one, the oldest ones are removed | 22:19 |
| vieira | but I am not sure | 22:19 |
| EriC^^ | thethrillgh, no problem | 22:19 |
| vieira | at this point I have the running kernel +2 older | 22:19 |
| vieira | I am not sure if I removed the other manually | 22:20 |
| vieira | or if it is doing it by itself xD | 22:20 |
| Bashing-om | AngryGoose_: A thought; have you lost authority to access your /home ? what results -> ls -al .Xauthority , ls -al .ICEauthority <- | 22:25 |
| Bashing-om | vieira: In my upgraded 14.04 to remove old kernels I run -> sudo apt-get autoremove <-. | 22:26 |
| apt-get | hello, apt-get here | 22:26 |
| vieira | Bashing-om: ah ok! That is exactly what I wanted to know | 22:27 |
| AngryGoose_ | .Xauthority says no file or directory. ICEauthroity says -rw------- 1 casey casey 180568 Mar 31 | 22:27 |
| vieira | it marks older kernels for autoremoval | 22:27 |
| vieira | but you still need to run autoremove | 22:28 |
| Bashing-om | vieira: true. I can hunt up the docs if required . | 22:28 |
| ritaa | hola quiero entrar a otro chat y no esta en las opciones me ayudan | 22:28 |
| vieira | Bashing-om: thanks a lot, no need for that! it is my understanding as well after looking into the script | 22:29 |
| vieira | Bashing-om: just out of curiosity, at this point how many kernels do you have installed? | 22:29 |
| vieira | the current one and two more? | 22:29 |
| Bashing-om | AngryGoose_: So no .Xauthority file. so no access ! .. have you rebooted the system ? That file is supposed to re-create upon reboot . | 22:30 |
| === yussif_ is now known as thethrillghh | ||
| ritaa | ---.-- | 22:30 |
| Bashing-om | vieira: I have 3 presently ... need to remove 1 of them I guess .. I do keep a working backup just in case . and i do not remove 'till I see that all is right with a new kernel install . | 22:31 |
| vieira | Bashing-om: yeah! I think the script is smart enough when marking for autoremoval | 22:32 |
| vieira | it always keeps at least one older that the current running | 22:33 |
| vieira | just in case | 22:33 |
| vieira | and in some circunstances it can be two | 22:33 |
| vieira | so I think just running autoremove is safe enough | 22:33 |
| AngryGoose_ | Bashing-om, I dont see it, and have rebooted | 22:33 |
| LiohAu | hey guys, I'am trying to follow a guide that says 'Configure your Ubuntu repositories to allow "restricted," "universe," and "multiverse."', how can I achieve/check this ? | 22:36 |
| k1l | LiohAu: see in system settings and then software and updates | 22:37 |
| LiohAu | from command line :D | 22:37 |
| huig | what is the diferrence between restricted and multiverse? | 22:38 |
| LiohAu | I don't know :( | 22:38 |
| leonic | i was in test disk and i write the partition but it deletet the other partition | 22:38 |
| DalekSec | huig: Same difference as main and universe, one is only community supported. | 22:39 |
| huig | DalekSec, thanks! | 22:39 |
| LiohAu | I know that things happens in the sources.list file | 22:39 |
| bekks | LiohAu: Whats the big picture? What are you actually trying to achieve? | 22:39 |
| k1l | LiohAu: then see the /etc/apt/sources.list file. its explained in there | 22:40 |
| LiohAu | well I think it's already ok, because I see the restricted, and multiverse and universe keyword in the file | 22:40 |
| LiohAu | but I am not sure | 22:41 |
| LiohAu | this is the content of my sources.list : http://pastebin.com/ZYn5f7qn | 22:42 |
| huig | LiohAu, i think you have to uncomment lines containing the words restricted, universe or multiverse | 22:43 |
| LiohAu | bekks: trying to follow a guide to setup a package, and at the begining of the guide they ask me to add these repository | 22:43 |
| LiohAu | huig: they are already there | 22:43 |
| bekks | LiohAu: Which guide? | 22:43 |
| LiohAu | but I don't know if I have missing ones | 22:44 |
| bekks | LiohAu: Whats the big picture? WHAT are you ACTUALLY trying to achieve? | 22:44 |
| LiohAu | bekks: this is the guide http://wiki.ros.org/indigo/Installation/UbuntuARM - but I don't know why it matters . | 22:44 |
| LiohAu | my question remains valid for any guide asking to configure repos | 22:44 |
| bekks | LiohAu: It matters, because your guide potentially isnt the way to go to achieve your goal. Potentially. | 22:45 |
| bekks | LiohAu: So knowing what you are trying to achieve is important. | 22:45 |
| bekks | LiohAu: The question itself, regarding repos, is still valid though. | 22:46 |
| k1l | LiohAu: do you see restricted, univers and multiverse in the paste you gave us? | 22:46 |
| LiohAu | yes | 22:46 |
| LiohAu | but maybe there are other repos that I don't know which are missing | 22:46 |
| k1l | LiohAu: and like i said: there i text in the file. you want to read it | 22:46 |
| k1l | LiohAu: there are not | 22:46 |
| k1l | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu | 22:47 |
| LiohAu | I came here because this guide is so *** long | 22:48 |
| k1l | welcome to cli :) | 22:48 |
| huig | LiohAu, did u do apt-get update before those steps? | 22:48 |
| LiohAu | huig: yes | 22:48 |
| LiohAu | upgrade too | 22:48 |
| k1l | LiohAu: seriously: if you dont want to read and learn something i dont think that will work well with the arm board | 22:49 |
| huig | LiohAu, from what i saw on your pastebin, it looks alright | 22:49 |
| LiohAu | k1l: I read a lot already, this is just think it's stupid to read all this stuff just for the 1st part of the guide | 22:50 |
| sethj | I've got a udev rule that runs when I plug in/unplug the power cable of my laptop. It runs a script that calls notify-send, but I never see anything on the screen. I've tried exporting DISPLAY to by current DISPLAY value but that didn't seem to have any effect. I'm dumping the return value from notify-send into a log file so I know the script is being run (the timestamp updates). Is there something else I need to do to get a graphical prog | 22:51 |
| sethj | ram working this way? | 22:51 |
| bekks | sethj: Show us your script in a pastebin please. | 22:52 |
| sethj | bekks, here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10715189/ | 22:54 |
| bekks | sethj: Does it work when running it manually? | 22:55 |
| sethj | bekks, yes it works as expected. | 22:56 |

| bekks | owl_: So dont resize videos often? :) | 22:56 |
| owl_ | flash crashes most of the time when I resize the video in youtube | 22:57 |
| huig | sethj, why would you see anything on the screen? the output is written into that logfile | 22:57 |
| mcphail | sethj: does the script run if you add the full path for notify-send (/usr/bin/notify-send)? | 22:58 |
| sethj | huig, actually, it does show the notification and create the log file.. | 22:58 |
| sethj | mcphail, Good idea, I'll try that! | 22:58 |
| sethj | nope. The log file's timestamp is updated but there is no notification. | 23:00 |
| === gareth_ is now known as Guest7606 | ||
| sethj | huig, just to remove all variables that may affect this I'll adjust the logging so it is unrelated to the notify-send command. | 23:01 |
| mcphail | sethj: if you redirect stderr to your log file, do you see anything? | 23:02 |
| sethj | mcphail, hm, nope. No luck :/ | 23:03 |
| sethj | (I used 2> /path/to/log) | 23:03 |
| mcphail | sethj: and if yor remove the "export..." line and change to "DISPLAY-:0 notify..." as a single line? | 23:04 |
| mcphail | sorrt DISPLAY=:0 | 23:04 |
| sethj | mcphail, tried that already, but I will try again just to be complete. | 23:05 |
| bekks | sethj: you could try this, in addition: DISPLAY=... /usr/bin/notify-send ... | tee -a /your/logfile | 23:06 |
| sethj | Here's the latest script just so we're on the same line: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10715240/ | 23:06 |
| sethj | Still no go :/ | 23:06 |
| mcphail | which "user" runs the script? | 23:07 |
| sethj | mcphail, root runs it (I'm not sure I can specify that manually anyway..?) | 23:07 |
| hrs | what's up | 23:08 |
| sethj | bekks, no difference, except that it no longer updates the log's timestamp. | 23:08 |
| hrs | any one alive ? | 23:08 |
| mcphail | sethj: ok - i think the user is the problem | 23:08 |
| sethj | mcphail, oh? Why's that? | 23:09 |
| mcphail | sethj: if you're logged in graphically, only your user can display the notification | 23:10 |
| mcphail | sethj: try ctrl-alt-f4 and log in as yourself | 23:10 |
| mcphail | sethj: type "DISPLAY=:0 notify-send "hello"" and quickly press ctrl-alt-f7 | 23:11 |
| mcphail | you'll see the notification | 23:11 |
| mcphail | ctrl-alt-f4 again, "sudo -i" to become root and try again. The notification won't be shown | 23:11 |
| sethj | yup that worked. | 23:12 |
| sethj | Is there a way I can specify the user from the udev rule? | 23:12 |
| mcphail | sethj: I don't know :) | 23:12 |
| sethj | Or am I going to have to do fancy switch user stuff in the script somehow? | 23:12 |
| sethj | mcphail, ok, I can look it up :) | 23:12 |
| * mcphail always uses overly-elaborate hacks with incrontab for this sort of thing, but that is probably the wrong way | 23:13 | |
| sethj | mcphail, yes I thought about an infinite loop or a cron job but I figured this was the right way(tm) to do this :P | 23:15 |
| mcphail | sethj: your hacks make my hacks look elegant ;) | 23:16 |

| BlackDalek | I am trying to send a file using bluetooth from my mac OS 10.6 to my Ubuntu computer. It looks like it is going to work, but then all I get on the Ubuntu computer is a padlock over the bluetooth indicator (top of desktop), then padlock disappears and no file is transfered. Any clues? | 23:57 |
| BlackDalek | My ubuntu is 14.04. | 23:58 |
| raging_goblin | thanks avansledright I ll go try it out | 23:58 |
