| lordievader | Good morning. | 07:31 |
|---|---|---|
| PDR__ | hello | 08:22 |
| PDR__ | im using kubuntu 14.10 with plasma 5 and i have issues with login after resume from sleep | 08:23 |
| PDR__ | everytime it goes to sleep i wake it up and then insert password but it alwast says somethign like unable to log in | 08:23 |
| PDR__ | im sure im not misspeling my password. Everytime is the same.. i never managed to log in after sistem resume.. | 08:24 |
| PDR__ | what can be wrong? | 08:24 |
| PDR__ | to be more precise it says: "unlocking failed" | 08:25 |
| excognac | greetings ! i'm using kubuntu 12.04. i wish to free some space on my separate root partition (/) but even for sudo apt-get autoremove it says: running depmode and tells me not enough disk space. any advices? | 09:20 |
| lordievader | excognac: Remove packages manually? | 09:22 |
| lordievader | excognac: "dpkg-query -W --showformat='${Installed-Size}\t${Package}\n' | sort -nr | less" is usefull for that. | 09:23 |
| excognac | lordievader: thanks i will try that. naturally there is no way to expand my root partition with livecd without reinstaling, correct? | 09:24 |
| lordievader | excognac: You don't need to reinstall to enlarge your root partition. | 09:25 |
| lordievader | But you do need to be in a live-environment (if you don't use lvm ;) ) | 09:25 |
| excognac | lordivader: i tried to do that earlier but never let me to add the free space to / | 09:26 |
| lordievader | excognac: Do you have free/unpartitioned space availabe> | 09:26 |
| lordievader | >=? | 09:26 |
| excognac | lordievader: I can do that yeah,but i have trouble with adding it to / | 09:27 |
| lordievader | What kind of trouble? | 09:28 |
| excognac | lordivader can you give me 20 mins? so i try to do it again and tell zou what exactly happens ok? | 09:30 |
| lordievader | Sure. | 09:31 |
| excognac | lordievader: thanks see you soon. btw i tried your comman but les is not installed and ofc i dont have enough pace to install it:) | 09:32 |
| excognac | space* | 09:32 |
| excognac | cya soon | 09:32 |
| excognac | lordievader: HI so am on live cd now and opened kpartition manager. i have 4.88gb unallocated disk space. i simply cant enlarge root partition. will try it from command line in a sec | 09:53 |
| lordievader | Could you send a screenshot? | 09:54 |
| excognac | can is there a way to do dit with pastebin? | 09:57 |
| excognac | *is there | 09:57 |
| Avihay_work | excognac: http://postimage.org/ | 09:59 |
| lordievader | !screenshot | 09:59 |
| ubottu | Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imgur.com/ and link the created page here. | 09:59 |
| excognac | lordievader: http://postimg.org/image/nkf4qzatt/c117413e/ | 10:03 |
| lordievader | excognac: You first need to move sda6 ~5Gb to the right. | 10:04 |
| lordievader | And that is going to take LONG. | 10:04 |
| lordievader | Depending on your useage 20gb can still be rather small. | 10:06 |
| excognac | lordievader: what do you mean take it the right? anyway, can i do it in command line wwith dd or so? yeah i wanna make it 30gb | 10:07 |
| lordievader | excognac: I'd use the graphical partition edititor if I were you. | 10:07 |
| lordievader | Resize sda6 a bit, then move it to the right. | 10:08 |
| excognac | ok i start it now | 10:09 |
| === benonsoftware is now known as Guest70711 | ||
| excognac | lordievader: got the required amount of unallocate free space. now how do i move it to the right? | 11:03 |
| lordievader | excognac: Should be an option somewhere. Haven't used the graphical partitioner since ages. | 11:06 |
| excognac | lordievader: ok it's the same as resize/move. during resize gave me an error message moving failed. now, if i wanna enlarge sda5(root partition) i need to have the free space BEFORE sda6(home partition) so i have to move it with the exact amount of available free space, correcT? | 11:09 |
| === Guest70711 is now known as benonsoftware | ||
| === claudio__ is now known as bipp | ||
| lordievader | Yes the free space should be between sda5 and sda6. | 11:18 |
| excognac | Thanks a lot for your help. then i should be able to enlarge root hopefully | 11:19 |
| lordievader | Frequently checking your rootfile system ain't a bad idea here ;) | 11:20 |
| excognac | i checked and repaired disks before and after each steps | 11:21 |
| excognac | 5% in 6mins. yeah this will take ages:) | 11:22 |
| lordievader | This is precisely why I love lvm ;) | 11:23 |
| lordievader | If my root fs runs out of disk space it is 'lvextend -r -L+20g <path-to-lv>' and I'm done, / has another 20gb of free space ;) | 11:24 |
| Walex | lordievader: that's only because of lack of planning :-) | 11:25 |
| Walex | lordievader: there is almost never a good case for creating small "partitions" to begin with leaving some free space to be attached later to one or another... | 11:26 |
| === cloud is now known as Guest72217 | ||
| Walex | with some qualifications not related to LVM2 though. | 11:27 |
| lordievader | I allways begin with small partitions, since I do not have to worry about resizing. I accept the fact that I do not know in advance what will grow the most. | 11:27 |

| excognac | lordievader: idon'tquite get what's the matter http://pastebin.com/HmJ0B44J | 12:06 |
| MoonUnit` | anyone else get a permanent selection box type blue square on the plasma5 desktop?, randomly appears and can't remove it. | 12:08 |
| lordievader | Bad sectors? | 12:09 |
| lordievader | excognac: ^ | 12:09 |
| MoonUnit` | appears all the time random locations and non interactive https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7618572/Plasma5.bluesquare.bug.png | 12:12 |
| excognac | lordievader: checking&repairing all disks then | 12:13 |
| lordievader | excognac: Bad sectors is not something you can repair. | 12:14 |
| lordievader | excognac: Check the smart data. | 12:14 |
| excognac | !smart | 12:20 |
| ubottu | smart is Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, a monitoring system for hard drives. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools | 12:20 |
| excognac | repair said this:http://pastebin.com/jC5HwyDy | 12:21 |
| lordievader | Filesystem is probably fine, I'd check the disk if I were you ;) | 12:22 |
| excognac | lordievader: http://pastebin.com/PF8bdBjM | 12:29 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 12:30 |
| excognac | lordievader: is this the right command? | 12:30 |
| lordievader | No need for the -d, and your should specify the disk (/dev/sda) not the partition. | 12:31 |
| lordievader | Hey BluesKaj | 12:31 |
| lordievader | excognac: Your disk is failing: Reallocated sector count is at 88. | 12:31 |
| BluesKaj | Hi lordievader how goes it today? | 12:31 |
| lordievader | excognac: Do you have a backup? If not, make one. NOW. | 12:31 |
| lordievader | BluesKaj: Doing good here. How are you you? | 12:32 |
| BluesKaj | VG thanks, nice weather for a change | 12:32 |
| lordievader | Yeah, it is nice and sunny here too. | 12:33 |
| * BluesKaj nods | 12:34 | |
| excognac | lordievader: http://pastebin.com/ZJQaZDeb | 12:36 |
| excognac | making backup, wwont take long | 12:36 |
| lordievader | But that is probably where the partition move fails. It tries to move it to a bad sector. | 12:37 |
| excognac | lordievader: so, i should reinstall and repartition the whole thing? even the ntfs partition? | 12:39 |
| lordievader | That is not going to fix a bad disk. Get a new disk ;) | 12:39 |
| excognac | lordievader: mhm. so currently there is nothing i can do? will get a new machine than as keyboard and fan are buggered up too. | 12:42 |
| lordievader | You can still use the disk, but don't be surprised when you loose data or things error randomly. (Like the partition move) | 12:43 |
| excognac | lordievader: thanks a lot for your long lasting patience. | 12:44 |
| lordievader | excognac: No problem ;) | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | excognac, are getting performance errors on windows as well ? | 12:55 |
| excognac | BluesKaj: BluesKaj yeah a lot. they can be prevented to somewhat extent with playing a youtube video after logging. then later pretubances are less frequent. naturally, this is entirely an empiric method. | 12:59 |
| excognac | *pertubances | 12:59 |
| BluesKaj | yeah that isn't easy to explain, have you run the smart test on the drive, if that fails then you probly need a new one | 13:01 |
| excognac | BluesKaj: yeah, here is the smart test result http://pastebin.com/ZJQaZDeb lordievader said i deffo need a new a disk. | 13:03 |
| BluesKaj | excognac, yup, doesn't look good with all the prefails etc | 13:06 |
| lordievader | BluesKaj: 88 bad sectors ;) | 13:06 |
| excognac | before investing in anything new: a) is it possible that my noisy fan caused overheating and this created bad sectors? b) how to avoid to have any bad sectors on my future drive? | 13:10 |
| lordievader | excognac: No, and you can't. Unless you don't use the drive. It is simple wear of usage. | 13:12 |
| excognac | k thanks. this was a really cheap one tho. still i'm not happy that i have to change: battery, keyboard, fan, hdd after 3 years | 13:14 |
| lordievader | excognac: Was it a new drive at that time? | 13:17 |
| lordievader | excognac: You might also want to invest in a fan for your disks, 38 is rather high for a disk. | 13:18 |
| excognac | lordievader:it was a brand new laptop. | 13:18 |
| lordievader | 3 years is a short life-span for an hdd. | 13:19 |
| excognac | lordievader: yeah but no wonder, i terrorized it a lot with handling/editing really large files, often leaving it on for 30 hours etc. i knew i shouldn't overload it with work and a desktop would fit better to my purposes, but never could invest in one. | 13:22 |
| BluesKaj | lordievader, I had a 3yr old WD die after after a power interruption. It was our media server connected to the LAN router, probly not a good idea I suppose. | 13:39 |
| BluesKaj | the drive still spins , but it has so many bad sectors even for 1TB drive that it's unusable | 13:41 |
| lordievader | Allways keep an eye or the reallocated sector count ;) | 13:44 |
| BluesKaj | yes, i noticed that | 13:45 |
| lordievader | That is what the smartd can do for you ;) | 13:45 |
| BluesKaj | this is my WD 1TB drive : 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 142 142 140 Pre-fail Always - 1262 ...not good :( | 13:50 |
| lordievader | That is scrap metal :P | 13:51 |
| excognac | couldn't reallocate the free diskspace now:( I knoww Sdd are very expensive, do they laste any longer? | 13:53 |
| excognac | *last | 13:54 |
| lordievader | Longer than HDD's? Probably not. However do not take the life-span of your disk as average. Usually they do fine for 10+ years. | 13:54 |
| excognac | ok. will think about them. i have a 1tb external anyways | 13:56 |
| 7GHABBQSR | test | 13:56 |
| lordievader | Ugh, usb is slow... | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | yup, i have a 160Gb drive that's 9yrs old now, and it still works fine | 13:57 |
| excognac | yeah but i don't really need to mess with giant files anymore, occasionally playing mediafiles via usb3 is no big deal | 13:59 |
| excognac | cya all and thanks a lot | 14:00 |
| BluesKaj | I'm looking at drives, but I'm not sure which brands are rekiable anymore. I used think WD was quiter good for the money ans seagate as low-end , but now I'm not so sure . | 14:00 |
| BluesKaj | reliable , that is | 14:00 |
| lordievader | WD still is. | 14:02 |
| lordievader | BluesKaj: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/best-hard-drive/ | 14:03 |
| MoonUnit` | shame google were too scared to give their information out too | 14:06 |
| MoonUnit` | they didn't want to tell people the best drives in case it made the prices go up. | 14:07 |
| === zero is now known as Guest97062 | ||
| BluesKaj | seems the Western Digital Red are the top of the line for consumers, but since we no longer store movies on the HDD after watching the media folders are much maller than before | 14:16 |
| BluesKaj | smaller | 14:16 |
| BluesKaj | even 500G is enough now | 14:17 |

| cale_ | anyone here that could answer a quick question | 20:28 |
| cale_ | im using konversation and new to linux but it shows symbols instead of text where file and edit and stuff should be whats going on | 20:29 |
| cale_ | any ideas | 20:30 |
| mokush | after getting the latest updates for vivid, I'm stuck at either a black screen, or a black screen with the 219 systemd version. any ideas? I can't even switch to a different screen with ctrl+alt+f1. the `sudo systemctl enable sddm.service -f` also doesn't work. | 20:30 |
| mokush | I can boot up the desktop if I start it trough recovery mode then -> resume normal boot. but that doesn't seem to load the video drivers right | 20:31 |
| BluesKaj | mokush, 15.04 ? | 20:32 |
| BluesKaj | mokush, drop to a TTY/VT and login then do, systemctl eabled sddm | 20:33 |
| cale_ | im using konversation and new to linux but it shows symbols instead of text where file and edit and stuff should be whats going on | 20:34 |
| cale_ | looks like machine code | 20:34 |
| BluesKaj | correction, systemctl enable sddm | 20:34 |
| BluesKaj | mokush,^ | 20:34 |
| mokush | BluesKaj: yeah, on vivid. I can't even drop to a tty, the ctrl+alt+fx shotcuts are not working. I managed to get to the desktop trough recovery | 20:34 |
| mokush | BluesKaj: `sudo systemctl enable sddm` ends up in `Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory` | 20:35 |
| MoonUnit` | should it be sddm.service? | 20:38 |
| BluesKaj | sddm is default on vivid | 20:39 |
| mokush | MoonUnit`: throws the same error even with sddm.service | 20:39 |
| BluesKaj | mokush, I know that the F1 doesn't work here, have you tried 2,3,4 etc? | 20:40 |
| mokush | BluesKaj: yeah, nothing | 20:40 |
| BluesKaj | mokush,` ok , in the recovery desktop have you tried updating and upgrading? | 20:41 |
| mokush | BluesKaj: yeah, everything is up to date | 20:41 |
| mokush | BluesKaj: I did find this: https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/505560-KDM-to-SDDM | 20:41 |
| mokush | but there's not `/etc/sysconfig/displaymanager` on our end | 20:42 |
| cale_ | anyone know why a program would show machine code where text should be | 20:43 |
| BluesKaj | mokush, systemctl restart display-manager.service , did you try that ? | 20:43 |
| BluesKaj | cale_, are you on 14.10 ? | 20:44 |
| mokush | BluesKaj: got `Failed to restart display-manager.service: Unit display-manager.service failed to load: No such file or directory.` | 20:45 |
| BluesKaj | ok try it without the .service | 20:46 |
| mokush | BluesKaj: same thing | 20:47 |
| BluesKaj | it's alittle late in the game mokush , but we really should be in discussing this in #ubuntu+1 | 20:48 |
