| viGtor | hello, do you know if it's safe installing Ubuntu Tweak with Ubuntu Gnome Edition? | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| lyndel_ | not sure anyoe else know? | 00:02 |
| daftykins | they would reply if they did | 00:02 |
| lyndel_ | am sure they would | 00:02 |
| viGtor | i mean, i'm not sure if it is Unity oriented | 00:03 |
| viGtor | ok i got the answer, it is gnome-shell oriented | 00:05 |
| viGtor | http://ubuntu-tweak.com/about/ | 00:05 |
| viGtor | just if you want to know :) | 00:05 |
| lyndel_ | lol | 00:05 |
| viGtor | it's weird, in the past it was the first app i installed but i havent heard from it since long time | 00:06 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Alright. Now, I need you to create a file in /etc/apt/preferences.d/ and paste the following into it: http://privatepaste.com/69ff9594d1 | 00:07 |
| === Tex_Nick is now known as Shifted_Nick | ||
| Flannel | lyndel_: once you've saved that file, do the apt-cache policy again (and pastebin the output), so we can verify I typed everything correctly, then we should be ready to continue. | 00:07 |
| lyndel_ | saved what file? | 00:08 |
| === Shifted_Nick is now known as Tex_Nick | ||
| Flannel | lyndel_: Create a file in /etc/apt/preferences.d/ (so, lets say /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa) paste the contents of the pastebin into the file, then save it. (You'll need to use sudo) | 00:08 |
| lyndel_ | am confused but ok | 00:09 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: More explicitly, do this: `sudo touch /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa && sudo nano /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa` then copy/paste into the editor, then save (ctrl-O in nano), then exit (ctrl-X in nano). Then let me know you've done that. | 00:09 |
| lyndel_ | ok | 00:10 |
| lyndel_ | i done it | 00:12 |
| lyndel_ | then now what to do? | 00:12 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Alright, now pastebin the apt-cache policy command again (the long one with the package names) | 00:13 |
| lyndel_ | ok | 00:13 |
| lyndel_ | u mean run the command again then paste the output online? | 00:14 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Correct. | 00:15 |
| lyndel_ | ok lol | 00:15 |
| lyndel_ | http://privatepaste.com/ba98b611a6 | 00:16 |
| lyndel_ | thats it | 00:16 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Ok, can you please pastebin the output of `cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa`? | 00:17 |
| cgkades | anyone know anything about ubnutu core? reading the docs, i wasn't sure if it was hinting that i386 used grub and not u-boot. can i[356]86 use u-boot? | 00:18 |
| cgkades | or.. does anyone have a good link to get core running on an 32 bit intel board? | 00:19 |
| lyndel_ | sorry have no idea what core is | 00:22 |
| cgkades | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core if you're currious | 00:22 |
| daftykins | mmm curry | 00:23 |
| lyndel_ | lol thanks haha | 00:23 |
| bekks | cgkades: "get core running"? | 00:23 |
| cgkades | bekks, installed/running/working | 00:24 |
| bekks | cgkades: What is "core"? | 00:24 |
| cgkades | bekks, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core | 00:24 |
| bekks | cgkades: And whats the actual issue with that? | 00:24 |
| lyndel_ | Flaael | 00:25 |
| cgkades | the only guides are 1) for an arm board, and 2) not very clear. They downlaod things that have already been created without actually saying what they are or how they were created. | 00:25 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Can you please pastebin the output of `cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa`? | 00:26 |
| lyndel_ | ok | 00:26 |
| cgkades | i'm trying to use it on an intel board (Galileo), so there are obvious differences, and when they just download pre-created things. it's not helpful | 00:26 |
| lyndel_ | its empty nothing shows | 00:27 |
| lyndel_ | what to do? | 00:27 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Alright. Sounds like we didn't correctly save that file. | 00:27 |
| lyndel_ | did i have to close the no ppa file before using the command? | 00:27 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Right. | 00:27 |
| lyndel_ | ok al do it lol | 00:28 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Close the file, then run the cat command again (to verify it saved properly), then run the apt-cache command (and pastebin it) | 00:28 |
| lyndel_ | cat commmand shows nothing | 00:29 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Alright, then we didn't successfully save the file. | 00:29 |
| lyndel_ | i thought it was file | 00:30 |
| lyndel_ | saved | 00:30 |
| lyndel_ | run the commands again? | 00:31 |
| lyndel_ | Vlannel what to do? | 00:33 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: You need to put that information into the file. I'm not sure what else to tell yuo to do. `sudo touch /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa` and then `sudo nano /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa` should work, then you paste the contents in, save the file, etc. | 00:33 |
| lyndel_ | u never told me to paste anything u told me to pastebin it which i did | 00:33 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Open the file (with the nano command), PASTE the contents of the pastebin I gave you (http://privatepaste.com/69ff9594d1) into said file, then save the file. | 00:34 |
| lyndel_ | oh ok | 00:35 |
| lyndel_ | ok i did it | 00:36 |
| lyndel_ | Flannel | 00:36 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Alright, now, try the cat command to verify the pastebin looks like the file. Then pastebin the output of the apt-cache command (`apt-cache policy libglapi-mesa xserver-xorg-video-ati libxatracker1 libosmesa6 xserver-xorg-video-nouveau libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx xserver-xorg-video-radeon xserver-xorg-video-intel`) | 00:37 |
| lyndel_ | ok | 00:37 |
| lyndel_ | http://privatepaste.com/cd78d88314 thats it | 00:39 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Alright. That looks good, but lets just double check. Pastebin the output of `sudo apt-get --simulate dist-upgrade` | 00:41 |
| lyndel_ | ok | 00:41 |
| === sleepypc is now known as `hypermist` | ||
| lyndel_ | http://privatepaste.com/310b5383c8 thats it | 00:43 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Looks good. OK, now go ahead and do it for real: `sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` and then we'll just need to remove that file we added (sudo rm /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa) | 00:45 |
| xangua | what's this mess, can't you just use PPA purge¿ | 00:46 |
| lyndel_ | i tryed but it gives eeros | 00:46 |
| lyndel_ | error | 00:46 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: typed what? | 00:46 |
| lyndel_ | when i did the purge command | 00:47 |
| lyndel_ | before | 00:47 |
| lyndel_ | so am trying this instead sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 00:47 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: and that gave you errors? | 00:47 |
| lyndel_ | that was the first thing i did before coming to this channel rmemeber | 00:48 |
| lyndel_ | now am doing what u said to do | 00:48 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: right, and the dist-upgrade command gives you errors? | 00:48 |
| lyndel_ | woot | 00:49 |
| lyndel_ | The following packages will be upgraded: | 00:49 |
| lyndel_ | winetricks | 00:49 |
| lyndel_ | The following packages will be DOWNGRADED: | 00:49 |
| lyndel_ | libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx libglapi-mesa libosmesa6 libxatracker1 | 00:49 |
| lyndel_ | xserver-xorg-video-ati xserver-xorg-video-intel xserver-xorg-video-nouveau | 00:49 |
| lyndel_ | xserver-xorg-video-radeon | 00:49 |
| lyndel_ | sorry | 00:50 |
| lyndel_ | flannel yes right?? http://privatepaste.com/de90916dbd | 00:51 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: yes. | 00:51 |
| lyndel_ | sweet | 00:51 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Then you just need to remove that file you added to /etc/apt/preferences.d/ | 00:52 |
| lyndel_ | woot its done | 00:53 |
| lyndel_ | oh have to remove it | 00:53 |
| lyndel_ | wait how to do it? | 00:53 |
| Flannel | sudo rm /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa | 00:53 |
| lyndel_ | sudo rm /etc/apt/preferences.d/no-ppa this? | 00:54 |
| lyndel_ | ok | 00:54 |
| lyndel_ | i think it works how will i know tho? i got no output | 00:54 |
| lyndel_ | cat cant find it | 00:55 |
| lyndel_ | yep its removed | 00:55 |
| lyndel_ | so now just reboot an everything will be ok then? | 00:55 |
| Flannel | lyndel_: Now you're back on the repository versions of things, so yes, your reboot should be OK | 00:55 |
| lyndel_ | ok brb man al let u know if anything went wrong ok | 00:56 |
| lyndel_ | thanks again for all ur help man haha it was like magic with ur help | 00:56 |

| xangua | lyndel4: every PPA is unnoficial | 01:08 |
| xangua | that means you use it on your own risk, like you learned just now | 01:08 |
| Facu_ | No one is in #ubuntu-1 | 01:10 |

| jeffrey_f | At one time last week, I was able to connect to my other machine by name. Now, I get "ssh: Could not resolve hostname jeff-pc: Name or service not known". Any ideas? | 01:46 |
| daftykins | yes, use IP | 01:46 |
| daftykins | and consider setting it static if this is internal network usage | 01:47 |
| psusi | jeffrey_f, did you have samba installed before and have since removed it? | 01:49 |
| hkrrsx | jeffrey_f: You could add a line to your /etc/hosts file pointing the hostname "jeff-pc" to the static IP of that machine | 01:50 |

| yorwos | are intel's microcode updates to cpu installed in ubuntu by default or should i manually install them ? | 01:51 |
| ianorlin | yorwos: they aren't installed by default also I think that only happens on the development version which is not supported | 01:52 |
| daftykins | i was under the impression they were part of motherboard BIOSs only. | 01:55 |
| aeon-ltd | yorwos: #hardware might know more | 01:57 |

| zutme | Would anyone be able to help me with an LVM problem? | 02:01 |
| zutme | ]I had a drive totally fail, so I removed it from the computer and was unable to mount my logical volume. I looked around online and performed a vgreduce --removemissing --force to remove the pv. However now I can't see my logical volume anymore. How should I proceed? | 02:01 |
| jeffrey_f | I found it. a few days ago I changed my DHCP for only IP and manually added 8.8.8.8 for my DNS. I intended to change it back, but was distracted at some point and forgot since everything else was working.........except, As I found out, local network name resolve. | 02:02 |
| daftykins | jeffrey_f: ah yes that'll do it :) | 02:02 |
| daftykins | Google DNS would indeed know nothing about your local network hosts | 02:03 |
| jeffrey_f | daftykins: Indeed | 02:03 |
| daftykins | if anyone was interested, i learnt from http://inertiawar.com/microcode/ that intel microcode updates are typically supplied via BIOS updates, but that 'modern OS kernels' can also update them, too | 02:19 |

| saraz3s | I have ubuntu on one laptop. I had installed a lot of packages from various sources on the net. Now I jst bought another laptop. Is there anyway that I can transfer all the packages and settings to my new laptop. As in. I have no idea about the packages I installed or where I installed them from. Is there a easy way for me to redownload those exact packages onto my new laptop? | 03:31 |
| daftykins | copy the content of /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ over, ensuring you're using the same version of ubuntu on both | 03:32 |
| daftykins | after that, you could use dpkg --get-selections to retrieve a list of packages installed. | 03:32 |
| daftykins | i'm sure there are far better guides online though | 03:32 |
| saraz3s | I am sorry I am a newbie to ubuntu. So I have no idea where to start searching. | 03:32 |
| CptRageToaster | saraz3s: That's fine... do you get what daftykins was suggestion? | 03:33 |
| CptRageToaster | I can explain it otherwise | 03:33 |
| CptRageToaster | suggesting* | 03:33 |
| saraz3s | I don't know how to perform the commands that is all but I got the jist of it | 03:33 |
| CptRageToaster | so | 03:33 |
| CptRageToaster | I'm assuming you have two separate computers? | 03:34 |
| saraz3s | yes | 03:34 |
| CptRageToaster | so, you have a bunch of text files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 03:34 |
| saraz3s | okay | 03:34 |
| CptRageToaster | they should all be owned by root:root | 03:35 |
| CptRageToaster | you'll need to find a way to copy them over to the same location on the newish PC | 03:35 |
| CptRageToaster | oh | 03:35 |
| CptRageToaster | step 0 | 03:35 |
| CptRageToaster | are these the SAME ubuntu version? | 03:35 |
| saraz3s | yes | 03:35 |
| CptRageToaster | ok good | 03:35 |
| saraz3s | utopic | 03:35 |
| CptRageToaster | then yeah, copy over those files... to a flash driver or something | 03:35 |
| CptRageToaster | drive or something | 03:35 |
| saraz3s | sure | 03:35 |
| hkrrsx | saraz3s: Get a List of Installed Packages -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=261366 | 03:36 |
| CptRageToaster | once those have moved over, you'll need to run an "apt-get update" to let apt-get know you messed with the sources | 03:36 |
| saraz3s | okay | 03:36 |
| CptRageToaster | once you did that, then you need to reinstall everything ._. | 03:36 |
| CptRageToaster | which... | 03:36 |
| CptRageToaster | there apparently is a guide | 03:37 |
| CptRageToaster | to tell you what you installed on the old one | 03:37 |
| CptRageToaster | so, that guide | 03:37 |
| CptRageToaster | has you create a file using the command : dpkg --get-selections > installed-software | 03:37 |
| saraz3s | ohh okay | 03:37 |
| CptRageToaster | it takes the output of dpkg --get-selections, and dumps it into a file named "installed-software" | 03:37 |
| legnbass | I just installed ubuntuMATE and there's no sound after sleep. alsa force-reload doesn't fix it. Any ideas why? | 03:37 |
| CptRageToaster | store THAT file on the flash drive too | 03:38 |
| CptRageToaster | then, copy everything over to the new PC | 03:38 |
| CptRageToaster | and then, tell dpkg what files you want to install | 03:38 |
| CptRageToaster | by giving it the contents of your file | 03:38 |
| saraz3s | okay | 03:38 |
| CptRageToaster | saraz3s: feel free to ask any other questions, lots of people here can help | 03:38 |
| CptRageToaster | I think I'm going to go to bed though | 03:38 |
| CptRageToaster | I've got the sleepies | 03:38 |
| CptRageToaster | any quick questions? | 03:38 |
| saraz3s | btw CptRageToaster just one more doubt | 03:39 |
| === andrex is now known as andrex|off | ||
| saraz3s | What if my ubuntu version is different | 03:39 |
| saraz3s | considering vivd is coming out | 03:39 |
| CptRageToaster | then... your sources should NOT be copied | 03:39 |
| saraz3s | Will the same directions imply | 03:39 |
| CptRageToaster | sadley, no | 03:39 |
| saraz3s | So I would have to again use the dpkg --get-selections | 03:39 |
| saraz3s | and then reinstall one by one | 03:39 |
| saraz3s | right? | 03:40 |
| CptRageToaster | I think so... | 03:40 |
| CptRageToaster | because | 03:40 |
| CptRageToaster | the packages may not be there | 03:40 |
| daftykins | except you wouldn't be able to get them all because you might have some PPAs | 03:40 |
| CptRageToaster | they may not have updated | 03:40 |
| CptRageToaster | or you might be missing a ppa as daftykins said | 03:40 |
| CptRageToaster | so... | 03:40 |
| CptRageToaster | you can get CLOSE | 03:40 |
| saraz3s | ohh | 03:40 |
| saraz3s | but a lot of my packages are from many other ppas that I got from the net | 03:41 |
| daftykins | if you pastebin one of the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ files it might help me understand how they're made up | 03:41 |
| saraz3s | okay sure | 03:41 |
| saraz3s | just give me a sec | 03:41 |
| daftykins | back in the day, lines added to /etc/apt/sources.list would have the version after them that they offered packages for | 03:41 |
| saraz3s | just one is enough? | 03:41 |
| daftykins | possibly, try one of the .list ones i think they're named | 03:41 |
| saraz3s | tnx CptRageToaster. Gn :) | 03:42 |
| CptRageToaster | good luck! | 03:42 |
| saraz3s | sure daftykins. jam | 03:42 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: use http://paste.ubuntu.com | 03:42 |
| legnbass | Does anyone know how to kix audio bugs? | 03:42 |
| hkrrsx | saraz3s: Here's another link that may be more applicable for you .... please read throughly as I have no experience with this software | 03:44 |

| saraz3s | tnx hkrrsx I will check it out in a minute :) | 03:45 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: yeah see it's got utopic in there, so you can use the links to remind yourself of what PPAs you've got added to look them up online to see if they offer vivid packages | 03:46 |
| saraz3s | ohh. okay. Tnx daftykins :) | 03:46 |
| daftykins | np | 03:46 |
| saraz3s | tnx again hkrrsx seems like an easy soultion too | 03:47 |
| hkrrsx | saraz3s: You're welcome | 03:47 |

| === SonikkuAmerica is now known as SonikkuAmericat | ||
| legnbass | I am at my wit's end on an audio issue in ubuntu mate | 03:59 |
| legnbass | can anyone help out? | 03:59 |
| aeon-ltd | legnbass: if someone can, describing it would help | 04:03 |
| ramen69 | rarar | 04:04 |
| legnbass | Basically audio works fine on boot but goes out after suspend / resume | 04:04 |
| legnbass | I have tried alsa force-reload | 04:04 |
| legnbass | and I have tried killing pulseaudio and restarting | 04:04 |
| aeon-ltd | checked for alsa muting? | 04:05 |
| legnbass | Not sure how | 04:06 |
| legnbass | I am in alsamixer now | 04:06 |
| azizLIGHT | what do you do when youre top panel has too many indicators on it and you cant see the menus no mo | 04:06 |
| aeon-ltd | does it show MM highlighted ? try toggling it | 04:06 |
| legnbass | Master is at 100 and auto-mute is disabled | 04:08 |
| legnbass | MM isn't highlighted anywhere | 04:09 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: I had a weird, similar issue to yours .... no sound and alsamixer showed the volume was all the way up, yet pavucontrol muted itself | 04:09 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: Is PulseAudio muted? | 04:09 |
| legnbass | I don't think pulse is muted | 04:10 |
| legnbass | i tried killing it | 04:10 |
| daftykins | restart the services | 04:10 |
| legnbass | This is a fresh install too, so it's not some strange config file I've edited | 04:10 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: Neither was mine ... | 04:10 |
| aeon-ltd | suspend hibernation has always been bad on linux | 04:10 |
| aeon-ltd | though if you have an ssd, i would just sugest you shutdown and restart instead | 04:11 |
| legnbass | I do have an ssd lol | 04:11 |
| legnbass | service restart pulseaudio didn't work either | 04:11 |
| daftykins | does audio come back from restarting the entire desktop session? | 04:12 |
| legnbass | service restart pulseaudio didn't work either / | 04:12 |
| legnbass | Sorry you mean logging out or rebooting | 04:12 |
| VENSA | hola | 04:13 |
| daftykins | switching to TTY1, then restarting lightdm | 04:13 |
| VENSA | hello | 04:13 |
| daftykins | log out and in may also be interesting | 04:13 |
| legnbass | never tried that | 04:13 |
| VENSA | I really like ubuntu | 04:13 |
| daftykins | then do | 04:13 |
| legnbass | is lightdm just a service? | 04:13 |
| VENSA | no | 04:14 |
| legnbass | I'll try the lightdm thing and logging out/in | 04:15 |
| legnbass | Will kick me from irc for a bit | 04:15 |
| VENSA | ok | 04:16 |
| VENSA | samba has problems | 04:17 |
| hkrrsx | !details | VENSA | 04:18 |
| ubottu | VENSA: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 04:18 |
| VENSA | sometimes samba does not open | 04:18 |
| legnbass | Restarting lightdm did not fix it | 04:18 |
| VENSA | and I have to use the terminal to fix it | 04:18 |
| legnbass | nor did logging out | 04:19 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: Do you have sound right now, after freshly logging back in ? | 04:19 |
| aombk | i am installing an operating system inside virtualbox. the installation is stuck close to the end and i just see some network traffic for a while now. i run wireshark and try to trace the destination ips. but i wanted to ask. how safe is that? how much of the outside os can the os inside the virtualbox see? nobody in #vbox is replying and i dont know if it is better to stop the process. any opinions? | 04:19 |
| daftykins | "samba does not open" doesn't really make much sense, since it's a way of gaining access to network file shares, or sharing files | 04:19 |
| daftykins | oh. user quit. how apt | 04:20 |
| legnbass | I do not | 04:20 |
| legnbass | So far nothing has given me sound except rebooting once I sleep the laptop | 04:21 |
| hkrrsx | Is the pulseaudio process currently running? | 04:21 |
| hkrrsx | ps aux | grep pulseaudio | 04:21 |
| OerHeks | aombk what os in virtualbox? what os as host? | 04:22 |
| legnbass | I have two pulseaudio PIDs when I do ps -d | grep pulseaudio | 04:22 |
| OerHeks | aombk, destination would be your virtual OS | 04:23 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: Run " grep RUN /etc/default/speech-dispatcher " | 04:23 |
| hkrrsx | Does it return YES or NO ? | 04:23 |
| daftykins | legnbass: well if you'll forgive the obvious suggestion then... don't use sleep | 04:23 |
| aombk | OerHeks, host os ubuntu, virtualbox os x | 04:24 |
| aeon-ltd | OSX works in a vm? | 04:24 |
| legnbass | Ooh that command returned No | 04:25 |
| daftykins | aeon-ltd: best to ask #vbox that | 04:25 |
| aombk | aeon-ltd, yes it does | 04:25 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: That's fine, the support articles suggest that should be set to NO | 04:25 |
| aombk | OerHeks, so what do you think? | 04:26 |
| legnbass | hkrrsx: ps aux shows a process started by my user and one started by the pulse user | 04:26 |
| hkrrsx | I wouldn't suspect that to be a problem | 04:27 |
| OerHeks | aombk, i know the UELA does not allow Virtualisation, other than on osx itself, but you want to know what traffic from what apple server? | 04:27 |
| vibhavsinha | \join | 04:28 |
| legnbass | So just curious, are there options for other states than sleep when closing a laptop? | 04:28 |
| aombk | OerHeks, but my question is general. how much of the outside os do you think the os inside the virtualbox can see? | 04:29 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: Humor me ... run " pavucontrol " and check the mute option for your sound output please | 04:29 |
| hkrrsx | I've seen a couple of instances where muting and then un-muting worked | 04:29 |
| OerHeks | aombk, so you encountered that osx can see vritualbox ? | 04:29 |
| legnbass | It says pavucontrol isn't installed. Could that be the problem? | 04:30 |
| hkrrsx | I doubt it | 04:30 |
| aombk | OerHeks, i dont understand | 04:30 |
| hkrrsx | Basically, go into your Volume Settings and check for mute | 04:30 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: Here, check this out ... | 04:31 |
| hkrrsx | http://thelinuxstartup.com/2013/11/06/how-to-change-the-sound-settings-in-ubuntu-13-10/ | 04:31 |
| OerHeks | aombk, any os can trigger the existence of beiing run in virtualbox | 04:32 |
| legnbass | No mute anywhere in there | 04:32 |
| hkrrsx | Ok, mute and then un-mute, if you would | 04:32 |
| hkrrsx | Also, double check that the right output is set | 04:33 |
| hkrrsx | i.e. - Don't set to HDMI if you're using the standard analog output | 04:33 |
| legnbass | Muted and unmuted | 04:34 |
| legnbass | Also made sure it is on built in audio speakers | 04:34 |
| legnbass | Still no sound | 04:34 |
| === mkv is now known as m4v | ||
| hkrrsx | legnbass: How are you testing your sound? | 04:35 |
| legnbass | changing the volume usually makes a noise | 04:36 |
| legnbass | There is also a test option in the volume control screen | 04:36 |
| hkrrsx | Ok, run the test option | 04:36 |
| legnbass | neither produce sound. Nor do youtube videos etc. | 04:36 |
| aombk | OerHeks, yes but can it gain access to the outside os? i mean more than just do a portscan to the outside os and try a network attack of some kind. except the networking between the virtual and the host, is virtualbox considered safe? | 04:36 |
| hkrrsx | Ok | 04:36 |
| aombk | except the networking between the virtual and the host, is virtualbox considered safe? | 04:37 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: Are there any errors in the logs? | 04:37 |
| daftykins | aombk: again, i'd chat to them in their channel | 04:38 |
| hkrrsx | Run this: sudo grep -i pulse /var/log/messages | 04:38 |
| OerHeks | aombk, maybe, depends on the apple software in your case. | 04:38 |
| aombk | ok thanks | 04:38 |
| legnbass | No such file or directory | 04:39 |
| hkrrsx | What? | 04:39 |
| hkrrsx | Um | 04:39 |
| legnbass | Maybe systemd puts things in a different place | 04:39 |
| legnbass | That does seem strange | 04:40 |
| hkrrsx | Even still, you should have a /var/log/messages | 04:40 |
| hkrrsx | Care to pastebin your /var/log directory ? | 04:40 |
| hkrrsx | Alternatively, you could run " sudo journalctl | grep pulseaudio " | 04:41 |
| legnbass | I have syslog | 04:42 |
| hkrrsx | Ok, " sudo grep -i pulse /var/log/syslog " | 04:43 |
| legnbass | Is journalctl in the apt repo? I don't have that and there's no suggestion | 04:43 |
| hkrrsx | No, journalctl is part of systemd | 04:43 |
| hkrrsx | It's essentially the same thing as " less /var/log/syslog " | 04:43 |
| hkrrsx | It'll come to you in 15.04 probably | 04:43 |
| legnbass | So there are errors in syslog | 04:44 |
| legnbass | Failed to create sink | 04:44 |
| legnbass | Also PCM device busy | 04:44 |
| hkrrsx | Would the time on that "failed to create sink" error be right after you brought the system up from sleep ? | 04:45 |
| legnbass | And there is at least one message about running pulseaudio in system mode, although I am not doing that | 04:45 |
| legnbass | I'll sleep it now and look for new errors | 04:45 |
| legnbass | They might be. Nothing new showed up after sleeping just now | 04:47 |
| hkrrsx | Perhaps look again after a fresh reboot and the sound is working | 04:48 |
| hkrrsx | You said the sound is currently NOT working | 04:48 |
| hkrrsx | And the problem is the sound stops after coming back up from sleep | 04:48 |
| hkrrsx | But the sound is working prior to putting the machine into sleep | 04:48 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: The only other thing that support research is suggesting is to run the " sudo alsa force-reload " | 04:49 |
| legnbass | Yeah, sudo alsa force-reload was the first thing I tried. It didn't help either | 04:49 |
| hkrrsx | How about " sudo service pulseaudio restart " | 04:49 |
| legnbass | I'll reboot and check the log after a sleep then | 04:49 |
| legnbass | yeah tried restarting the pulseaudio service earlier | 04:50 |
| hkrrsx | legnbass: OK, then I'm out of options | 04:50 |
| legnbass | That was since I've been here chatting | 04:50 |
| ksmith | Hi. I'm miserably failing to make echo -e '\a' output some sound to the speaker. I've tried this https://askubuntu.com/questions/228096/terminal-bell-doesnt-ring and this http://www.richud.com/wiki/Ubutu_Beep_Audible_Bell_Ping_Fix | 04:50 |
| legnbass | Yeah me too lol. Really annoying bug | 04:50 |
| hkrrsx | Sorry man | 04:50 |
| daftykins | you'd have to do alsa and pulseaudio together in the right order, no? | 04:50 |
| legnbass | Like kill pulse, reload alsa then strt pulse? | 04:51 |
| daftykins | i don't know | 04:51 |
| saraz3s | Hey guys I have a doubt about the additional drivers on ubuntu. I have a Nvidia gefore 105M. Which one of the following proprietor y drivers should I be using? 1) using Nvidia binary driver version 331.113 from nvidia-331 2) Using Nvidia legacy binary driver version 304.125 from nvidia-304 3) Using Nvidia legacy binary driver version 304.125 from nvidia-304-updates 4) Using Nvidia binary driver - version 331.113 from nvidia-331-updates 5) Using X.org | 04:51 |
| saraz3s | server - Nouveau. First of all I would like to know which one to use. Second if you could tell what are these? howare they different or just guide me with a link regarding this. Sorry to burden u but I am a newbie | 04:51 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: "lspci | pastebinit" please | 04:52 |
| saraz3s | sorry I didn't get u? lspci? | 04:52 |
| ksmith | I've set the dconf-editor config, the gnome-terminal config, ran pactl, ran xset b 100, and virtually everything I could find with googling. I still can't hear anything | 04:52 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: yeah run it please | 04:52 |
| saraz3s | on my terminal? | 04:53 |
| saraz3s | lspci | pastebinit | 04:53 |
| ksmith | I also tried unity-control-center sound -> sound effects and set the alert volume to 100% which made no difference | 04:53 |
| OerHeks | saraz3s, easy, try the highest. if it does not work, that same menu shows 'not in use' then choose one version lower | 04:54 |
| OerHeks | no need to reboot | 04:54 |
| saraz3s | oh. Okay tnx OerHeks | 04:54 |
| daftykins | err, if one won't work - X won't start | 04:55 |
| daftykins | we need to know what exact hardware is in use. | 04:55 |
| saraz3s | The first one works fine | 04:55 |
| aliman_ | hi guys, can you pls tell me any usefull app for ubuntu gnome? | 04:56 |
| saraz3s | But ever since I have used it the boot time is like crazy long. Its taking a loong time. Its keeps showin the dash and after about 5 mins the Nvidia logo appears. Thats the reason I asked | 04:56 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: yeah i would still find it relevant to see the output of "lspci" | 04:56 |
| daftykins | which is why i opened with that :) | 04:57 |
| saraz3s | I typed it but it doesn't show anything | 04:57 |
| saraz3s | tells pastebin isn't installed or something like that | 04:57 |
| legnbass | saraz3s: My laptop would not boot at all with noveau. I had to install nvidia-current | 04:57 |
| saraz3s | nvidia current? | 04:57 |
| f0xtr0t-qwerty-k | hi guys :D | 04:58 |
| saraz3s | I have only legcy binary | 04:58 |
| saraz3s | and some nouveau | 04:58 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: yes you need to install pastebinit first. | 04:58 |
| saraz3s | installing jam | 04:58 |
| daftykins | i tend not to include that instruction because the error tends to say it's not installed :) | 04:58 |
| daftykins | jam? | 04:58 |
| legnbass | just a minute I think | 04:59 |
| daftykins | oh. novel TLA | 04:59 |
| saraz3s | Jam- just a minute | 04:59 |
| saraz3s | :) | 04:59 |
| daftykins | that's a new one on me | 04:59 |
| saraz3s | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10741846/ | 04:59 |
| daftykins | ah, nvidia quadro | 05:01 |
| === `hypermist` is now known as sleepypc | ||
| saraz3s | huh? | 05:01 |
| daftykins | it's a more workstation class of graphics chip | 05:02 |
| saraz3s | as in? Could u make urself more clear? How did u gather that from some seemingly crazy messages? | 05:03 |
| aliman_ | does anyone knows how to install skype on ubuntu gnome? it seems that the command that i used on unity ain't work here | 05:03 |
| daftykins | yeah hang on, got chocolate on my fingers :D | 05:03 |
| saraz3s | lol | 05:03 |
| OerHeks | aliman_, make sure you enable partner repo first | 05:04 |
| aliman_ | 1. sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 | 05:05 |
| aliman_ | 2. sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" | 05:05 |
| aliman_ | 3. sudo apt-get update | 05:05 |
| aliman_ | 4. sudo apt-get install skype | 05:05 |
| aliman_ | these are not working on gnome | 05:05 |
| OerHeks | why dpkg --add-architecture i386 ? | 05:05 |
| daftykins | aliman_: "sudo apt-get install skype" done. | 05:05 |
| aliman_ | should be anything else? | 05:05 |
| OerHeks | just enable partner repo, reload, and install wine from the softwarecenter | 05:05 |
| aliman_ | wine? | 05:06 |
| OerHeks | err skype | 05:06 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: so you see the nvidia device on line 20? i googled G98M which is a model name, basically. | 05:06 |
| saraz3s | okay | 05:06 |
| aliman_ | if architecture i386 is not good how do i make it disappear?does it harm the system? | 05:07 |
| lotuspsychje | good morning to all | 05:08 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: hmm, so slow bootup you say - this is a laptop correct? | 05:08 |
| OerHeks | aliman_, removing i386 means reinstall, as ubuntu is multiarch already | 05:08 |
| aliman_ | i enabled the repo and it tells me could not find skype package | 05:08 |
| daftykins | lotuspsychje: heya! | 05:08 |
| OerHeks | hi lotuspsychje | 05:08 |
| saraz3s | yes it | 05:08 |
| saraz3s | *yes it is | 05:08 |
| lotuspsychje | hi daftykins and OerHeks :p | 05:08 |
| aliman_ | so there is no problem if i used that i386 command? | 05:09 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: do you know if the hard disk light stays on solidly whilst the delay is going on, before X comes up? | 05:09 |
| OerHeks | aliman_, maybe there is a problem yes, not sure what guide you followed, must be very old | 05:09 |
| saraz3s | woooow now that is too technical. wait. hard lisk light on solidity? What X comes up? sorry to bother so much but I am not too tech savvy either. I apologize. | 05:10 |
| aliman_ | i have gnome 14.04 lts now should i put 14.10? | 05:11 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: so there's a delay before you see the nvidia logo - and so before the GUI is there... you're familiar with how the hard disk LED on your laptop refers to how busy the hard disk is? | 05:11 |
| lotuspsychje | aliman_: 14.04 is long time support, thats your choice | 05:11 |
| saraz3s | sadly no | 05:11 |
| saraz3s | ohhhh wait. got it. Damn. Yes. I glows. flickers. whatever but it does show that its being read | 05:12 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: yep so if it were illuminated during that delay, it might suggest the hard disk is working busily - otherwise, the system may be stuck on something | 05:13 |
| saraz3s | It never used to be like this before | 05:13 |
| saraz3s | Until I changed it from X.Org to the topmost driver | 05:13 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: one thing i always like to do though is have people confirm their hard disk is healthy, as it's so easy to do... so if you'd like to run "sudo apt-get install smartmontools" (software to look at the hard disk health) and then "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit" | 05:13 |
| saraz3s | sure | 05:14 |
| saraz3s | jam | 05:14 |
| saraz3s | here daftykins -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10741985/ | 05:16 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: ok, and we could also look at the system log to see if there are any hints as to why the graphics driver delays there... "dmesg > ~/file && pastebinit ~/file" | 05:18 |
| saraz3s | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10742014/ | 05:18 |
| saraz3s | bro how the hell do u know so much? Can u give some tips, blogs, books to learn more about all this? | 05:20 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: hrmm, hard to say really. i live hardware and have done for 20 odd years now | 05:21 |
| daftykins | mostly self taught | 05:21 |
| lotuspsychje | !manual | saraz3s | 05:21 |
| ubottu | saraz3s: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 05:21 |
| lotuspsychje | saraz3s: and read here in chat for several years and learn :p | 05:22 |
| saraz3s | How do I store or log what is going on in the this channel? | 05:22 |
| lotuspsychje | !log | saraz3s | 05:22 |
| ubottu | saraz3s: Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. | 05:22 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: anywho there's no clue as to why the driver is slow in there at least - there are a couple of errors on the hard disk but it looks mostly healthy really - nothing to worry about i think. that HP DV4 looks pretty old so i wouldn't think there's much benefit to using the nvidia proprietary driver over the nouveau open source, unless you have problems | 05:22 |
| saraz3s | oh. Okay. Tnx a lot :) | 05:23 |
| daftykins | no problemo | 05:24 |
| saraz3s | btw lotuspsychje what about other channels? Is there one way to store logs of different channels or should I ask each one of thema bout it | 05:24 |
| daftykins | many of the Ubuntu channels are publically logged | 05:24 |
| lotuspsychje | saraz3s: you can use xchat and read your xchat logs too | 05:24 |
| saraz3s | I use hexchat | 05:25 |
| home | hi people | 05:25 |
| saraz3s | How can I log from hexchat? | 05:25 |
| daftykins | home: hi | 05:25 |
| lotuspsychje | saraz3s: maybe the #hexchat guys know? | 05:25 |
| saraz3s | hmm tnx :) | 05:25 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: do you have a backup setup by the way? | 05:26 |
| daftykins | as in, do you backup your data off of that laptop? | 05:26 |
| OerHeks | saraz3s, settings > preferences > logging | 05:27 |
| OerHeks | same place as xchat | 05:27 |
| OerHeks | else this channel is logged too | 05:27 |
| saraz3s | oh tnx :) | 05:27 |
| saraz3s | daftykins | 05:27 |
| saraz3s | backup setup | 05:27 |
| saraz3s | I used this aptik | 05:28 |
| saraz3s | to back up ppas and settings | 05:28 |
| daftykins | saraz3s: nah but for your personal data, everything stored in /home | 05:28 |
| saraz3s | yup. I do that | 05:28 |
| daftykins | ah good stuff | 05:29 |
| daftykins | looking closer i would be a little wary of that hard disk, quite the old system that though! | 05:29 |
| saraz3s | yup | 05:29 |

| farzeen | I had set the environment variable http_proxy in some startup script. I forgot which one it was. Is there any way to find out and unset it? | 07:01 |
| daftykins | echo it. | 07:02 |
| EriC^^ | daftykins: i think farzeen means he doesn't know where it is anymore | 07:02 |

| daftykins | ah i see | 07:02 |
| daftykins | it's these tired eyes :> | 07:03 |
| cfhowlett | cuken, probably. ask ##linux | 07:03 |

| cuken | Farzeen, you can search for the text | 07:03 |
| farzeen | hmm | 07:03 |
| cuken | what type of script file did you make? | 07:03 |
| EriC^^ | farzeen: do grep -r "http_proxy" ~ | 07:04 |
| cuken | yep that's what I was going to suggest | 07:04 |
| farzeen | thanks EriC^^ | 07:04 |
| daftykins | it's probably in a system file though right? | 07:04 |
| EriC^^ | it's probably in .profile or a ~/.config/autostart file | 07:04 |
| cuken | grep --inclue=\*.{FILETYPE} will sped it up | 07:05 |

| farzeen | hey, that one finished pretty fast. but.. no luck :( | 07:16 |
| farzeen | the search in home finished too.. no positive results | 07:16 |

| daftykins | that's the shotgun approach | 07:17 |
| farzeen | that's gonna take too long.. isn't it? | 07:18 |

| C0r3 | Hey... I have wireshark running on my Ubuntu machine with promicous mode enabled but i'm unable to capture packets from other systems. What do I do now? | 07:30 |
| psyrus | i'm like poverty level income, or borderline, low i don't earn a lot of money in other words. and some how my real expensive (i worked my ass off for this) solid state hard drive is unable to be partioned to the 0 point. | 07:30 |
| psyrus | it says free space preceeding , 1 mib | 07:30 |
| psyrus | why is that? | 07:30 |
| psyrus | how come i cant get it to 0 | 07:31 |
| psyrus | I HAVE NO MMONEY TO BUY A NEW FRIGGAN HARD drive | 07:31 |
| psyrus | it wont let me install grub | 07:31 |
| daftykins | what you said makes zero sense. | 07:31 |
| psyrus | okahy | 07:31 |
| psyrus | okay | 07:31 |
| psyrus | lemmi start from the begining | 07:32 |
| psyrus | i have GParted open right now | 07:32 |
| daftykins | it doesn't matter if the first partition wants a 1MB gap, you should be 4K aligning your partitions anyway | 07:32 |
| psyrus | okay , and i wanna make a whole brand new partition with grub as my boot loader | 07:32 |
| psyrus | why? | 07:32 |
| psyrus | there is no allignment | 07:32 |
| psyrus | it's a solid state drive | 07:33 |
| psyrus | flash drive | 07:33 |
| daftykins | C0r3: that's not how wireshark works :) it's only going to show you local traffic unless you perform some other action to make all the traffic go via your system... | 07:33 |
| EriC^^ | psyrus: what are you trying to do? | 07:33 |
| psyrus | no cylinders no heasd | 07:33 |
| daftykins | psyrus: wrong. they need 4KB alignment. | 07:33 |
| psyrus | i don't know what that means | 07:33 |
| psyrus | gparted says it needs 1 mib of freespace preceeding my partition table | 07:33 |
| psyrus | i dunno what 1 mib is | 07:34 |
| psyrus | is that one megabit ? | 07:34 |
| psyrus | or 1 megabyte? | 07:34 |
| daftykins | a mibibyte | 07:34 |
| htqp | mibibyte = 1024^3 | 07:34 |
| psyrus | so i need to makae it at least 4 k? | 07:34 |
| psyrus | like 4 mibs ? | 07:34 |
| htqp | no, you want 1MiB | 07:34 |
| psyrus | oh.. | 07:34 |
| daftykins | why are you not just letting ubuntu's installer do this? :) | 07:34 |
| psyrus | why isn't grubgetting installed then I | 07:34 |
| psyrus | i did!! | 07:35 |
| psyrus | and when i restart the gcomputer | 07:35 |
| EriC^^ | htqp: don't you mean 1024^2 ? | 07:35 |
| psyrus | with the disc out of the drive | 07:35 |
| daftykins | well start from the start and explain on one line what's going on. | 07:35 |
| htqp | yes, ^2 sorry. | 07:35 |
| psyrus | it brings me to this grub rescue thing or somethinh | 07:35 |
| daftykins | you put GRUB on the wrong disk. | 07:35 |
| psyrus | huh? | 07:35 |
| daftykins | likely your install media was sda at boot perhaps. | 07:35 |
| psyrus | i have a ubutu cd | 07:36 |
| psyrus | i wanna just getmy computer running again some how without having to run of a dics | 07:36 |
| psyrus | a dvd i mean | 07:36 |

| daftykins | this is a sign that you should go to sleep and start afresh tomorrow. | 07:36 |
| C0r3 | daftykins: I thought we can sniff data with the help of wireshark | 07:37 |
| psyrus | i cant | 07:37 |
| psyrus | i can't sleep with my computer the way it is this is my life!! you dont understand it's all i have | 07:37 |
| daftykins | C0r3: yes, but it doesn't suddenly send everyones data via your PC :) | 07:37 |
| daftykins | psyrus: i understand you're being overdramatic and ridiculous. | 07:37 |
| agent_white | Those problems are the most fun to solve :) | 07:37 |
| C0r3 | daftykins: I just want to sniff the packets in between. How do I do it? | 07:38 |
| daftykins | C0r3: now, if this PC were a router that all the traffic was going via - you'd see everything. but if it's just a client on the network, it'll only see its' own. | 07:38 |
| psyrus | today is Easter i have to be at church for a long time today. | 07:38 |

| psyrus | this is ithe only time I can do this | 07:38 |
| agent_white | C0r3: How is your machine tied into the network? | 07:38 |
| psyrus | it's too late .. | 07:38 |
| psyrus | never mind | 07:39 |
| daftykins | then go to church, people are more important than a few hours without a bootable PC. | 07:39 |
| psyrus | good night you guys ... | 07:39 |
| agent_white | C0r3: Directly to a router? Or a switch? etc... | 07:39 |
| psyrus | thanks,.. | 07:39 |
| C0r3 | agent_white: I'm connected to a wifi hotspot. | 07:40 |
| daftykins | yep, definitely some malicious potential here. | 07:40 |
| daftykins | i wouldn't recommend helping any further on this one. | 07:40 |
| C0r3 | agent_white: Basically we have broadcast messages in 802.11 so isn't it obvious to sniff the data? | 07:40 |

| daftykins | !repeat | 07:44 |
| ubottu | Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 07:44 |
| agent_white | C0r3: You need to research the multiple ways of tapping into a network, or where/how you should place your sniffer. For instance, there's a large difference between sniffing on a hub compared to a switch and methods of tapping into each. | 07:44 |
| agent_white | C0r3: Maybe you need to look into techniques and how they work... port mirroring/hubbing out/tapping/ARP poisoning... etc. | 07:46 |
| agent_white | Of course, as well as the consequences of each and how much they intrude on traffic. | 07:46 |
| cmanns | A few questions- easy to change "ubuntu's | 07:48 |
| daftykins | ? | 07:48 |
| cmanns | gnome/kde, etc- if I want to use Steam what is best distro, and can I install ubuntu on ZFS through the install wizard or complications | 07:48 |
| cmanns | Sorry accidentally entered ^_^ | 07:48 |
| daftykins | it doesn't matter - and ZFS doesn't make any sense for a gaming system | 07:49 |
| cmanns | Just for testing | 07:50 |
| daftykins | i think if you want to make use of ZFS, it is supported better on other OSs | 07:50 |
| cmanns | thanks :D | 07:53 |
| C0r3 | agent_white: Alright... | 07:54 |
| agent_white | C0r3: Learning about those would be to your benefit. | 07:57 |
| C0r3 | agent_white: Well I was trying to write a python script for dns spoofing... | 07:58 |
| daftykins | that's not gonna work. | 07:59 |

| EriC^^ | farzeen: np | 08:02 |
| EriC^^ | farzeen: any progress? | 08:02 |
| farzeen | It was 5-6 months ago I set up the proxy EriC^^. It is a squid caching proxy, because I am on low bandwidth 2G mobile internet | 08:02 |
| farzeen | the `grep -ir "proxy" /` is still running | 08:03 |
| farzeen | I added unset http_proxy in .bashrc as a workaround. Synaptic started to work | 08:03 |
| geirha | farzeen: That grep will probably hit a special file and hang waiting for opening it | 08:08 |
| EriC^^ | farzeen: try history | grep -A10 proxy | 08:09 |
| EriC^^ | farzeen: * -C10 | 08:09 |
| farzeen | geirha. it did right now! | 08:10 |
| EriC^^ | illuminati confirmed :P | 08:10 |
| farzeen | it messed up with some files in proc | 08:10 |
| geirha | find / -xdev -type f -exec grep -i proxy {} + | 08:11 |
| geirha | I don't know what the actual problem is though | 08:12 |
| geirha | ah, find where http_proxy is being set. Then you can limit your search to /etc and "$HOME" | 08:14 |
| maziar | does any body know aboout this error routines:SSL3_GET_CLIENT_KEY_EXCHANGE | 08:15 |
| geirha | Probably in .profile or .pam_environment | 08:16 |
| farzeen | EriC^^, history doesnot work. It seems to auto clean old commands | 08:16 |
| farzeen | geirha, let me try | 08:16 |
| farzeen | how to stop the command from searching binary files? | 08:16 |
| geirha | farzeen: by default, grep bails out of the file when it detects it being binary | 08:17 |

| EriC^^ | farzeen: check if it's system-wide first maybe, try sudo login <user> then echo $http_proxy | 08:22 |
| EriC^^ | if you have another user on the system | 08:23 |
| farzeen | i don't have another user, I guess | 08:24 |
| EriC^^ | farzeen: if you want you can create one easily and then remove, sudo useradd -m bla , sudo userdel -r bla | 08:24 |
| EriC^^ | you'll need to do sudo passwd bla after you create the use | 08:25 |
| farzeen | Does every ubuntu have an extra user called 'root ' ? | 08:25 |
| farzeen | like Administrator for windows? | 08:25 |
| EriC^^ | farzeen: yeah, it's disabled though | 08:25 |
| farzeen | su root did not work. but sudo su root worked when i supplied my own password, not root's password :) | 08:26 |
| cfhowlett | !root | farzeen | 08:27 |
| ubottu | farzeen: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 08:27 |
| geirha | if it's system-wide, the guest user would get it too | 08:27 |

| bitnumus_ | Hi, how can i completely uninstall a driver in ubuntu? I'm trying to update/fix a broken wifi driver and i want to completely remove the module from kernel. I've unloaded it using modprobe -r but want all files removed | 08:54 |
| daftykins | blacklist it, not remove | 08:54 |
| bitnumus_ | daftykins: i want to remove it | 08:54 |
| daftykins | i am suggesting the more likely approach :) | 08:55 |
| bitnumus_ | i'm struggling to know if certain files are being updated/removed, the new driver i'm trying might overwrite some but not all files etc so i want to remove them all and start fresh | 08:55 |
| bitnumus_ | i've tried blacklisting its not what i want to do | 08:55 |
| bitnumus_ | the driver i want to use has the same name, so thats totally pointless? | 08:56 |
| bitnumus_ | everyone keeps telling me to blacklist it, but then the new driver wont work.... | 08:56 |
| daftykins | depends where the original came from | 08:56 |
| bitnumus_ | daftykins: i appreciate the comment but i don't want to blacklist it, i wantw to remove it, do you know how ? | 08:57 |
| daftykins | there's not really a full enough picture here | 08:57 |
| daftykins | but nm i gotta run | 08:57 |
| bitnumus_ | lol, typical :) | 08:57 |
| daftykins | well it is 10am | 08:58 |
| EriC^^ | happy holidays daftykins :) | 08:58 |
| daftykins | ty sir! | 08:58 |
| daftykins | and to thee | 08:58 |
| EriC^^ | ty! | 08:58 |
| bitnumus_ | it is 10am, and i need this fixed before work tomorrow, i don't intend nor wish to be doing this all day! | 08:58 |
| daftykins | i wouldn't recommend trying to pass on your urgency of the task to volunteers :) | 08:59 |
| bitnumus_ | Hi EriC^^ , mind taking over ? | 08:59 |
| bitnumus_ | daftykins: i'm not asking for debugging and such, thought removing a driver process would be trivial, but google seems like a wild goose chase for what should be a standard task ? :S | 08:59 |
| bitnumus_ | i can unload and delete all files in modules for the driver, and /lib/firmware, just want to be sure this is enough | 09:00 |
| bitnumus_ | Ok, another quesiton then. I have two sets of interfaces for wifi wlan0 and wlan1, how can i remove wlan1 ? | 09:07 |
| operatorplik | hai | 09:11 |
| hiexpo | bitnumus, why you want to remove it | 09:13 |
| hiexpo | bitnumus, is wlan1 a usb wifi card? | 09:14 |

| froyo | Johnja..you wanna test the experimental release? Why? | 09:27 |
| johnja | The log file is only 7 lines: | 09:27 |
| Donald_Pi_rasp | greetings everyone | 09:27 |
| froyo | Hi Donald_Pi_rasp | 09:27 |
| antcha76 | I'm currently unable to run twice an application, ie. get two instances and two windows | 09:27 |
| johnja | froyo, how is 14.10 experimental? | 09:27 |
| cfhowlett | it's absolutely NOT experimental! | 09:28 |
| froyo | I gonna say it's for 9 months (in my opinion..it's experimental for next release) | 09:28 |
| froyo | since Vivid need our help! :O | 09:28 |
| antcha76 | Is there any way I can force to run more than once? | 09:29 |
| cfhowlett | froyo, eh, no. | 09:29 |
| froyo | keyword = opinion | 09:29 |
| MonkeyDust | froyo you mean the in-between-versions, between LTS's? | 09:29 |
| froyo | Yes...but UU version still need to be use and tested. | 09:30 |
| johnja | well, I'm no longer sure I _really_ want 14.10, but I think that I don't have a roking 14.10 or 14.04 right now. | 09:30 |
| froyo | since it's important for future release, right? | 09:30 |
| froyo | johnja, you do fresh install. | 09:31 |
| froyo | can* | 09:31 |
| ioria | antcha76, you mean that, for example, you cannot run two terminal windows ? | 09:31 |
| antcha76 | ioria, kind of, yeah. | 09:31 |
| johnja | there's got to be a better way than a fresh install. | 09:31 |
| antcha76 | Instead of a terminal it's a game I'm working on | 09:32 |
| froyo | johnja, there is...but recommended to fresh install (always backup your work and files) | 09:32 |
| antcha76 | It worked fine until yesterday | 09:32 |
| ioria | antcha76, you did a normal desktop installation of ubu ? | 09:32 |
| antcha76 | I tweaked it quite a lot | 09:32 |
| froyo | antchar76, can I help too ? :D | 09:32 |
| antcha76 | a theme "Zukitwo" and a Plank dock | 09:33 |
| ioria | antcha76, open xterm and type xterm & | 09:33 |
| antcha76 | froyo, any help is appreciated :-) | 09:33 |
| froyo | antcha76, I'm not an advance user (but I'm developing for it, trying), so I try to help...something that I know i could. | 09:34 |
| antcha76 | if it helps, it's a Adobe AIR application | 09:34 |
| froyo | So, do you use Gnome shell? | 09:34 |
| antcha76 | no Unity | 09:34 |
| froyo | Gnome terminal/console* | 09:35 |
| johnja | I don't think i'm prepared to do a fresh install. The very concept scares the <censored> out of me. | 09:35 |
| antcha76 | oh right, i'm using Gnome-terminal yes | 09:35 |
| froyo | johnja, why? | 09:35 |
| antcha76 | I can run it twice without problem | 09:35 |
| antcha76 | it's just that particular game i'm developing that stopped to run twice | 09:36 |
| froyo | developing a game? | 09:36 |
| ioria | antcha76, that's another story | 09:36 |
| antcha76 | it's really important that i run it twice since it's an online RPG | 09:36 |
| antcha76 | i think it's GTK messing up | 09:36 |
| antcha76 | and noticing that i already ran it once | 09:37 |
| antcha76 | and don't want any more instances | 09:37 |
| froyo | I gonna try ls -a and find the settings of the tweak I done. | 09:37 |
| antcha76 | but well i really don't know what i'm talking about... | 09:37 |
| johnja | froyo I've been on the same install since ubuntu 8.10 with incremental upgrades and adding cruft..... If I do a fresh install there's going to be a lot of stuff I'm used to missing and I won't know how to get it back. | 09:37 |
| antcha76 | i tried to google the problem without success | 09:38 |
| antcha76 | i guess i'll just wrap it up in a wine instance until it works again | 09:39 |
| froyo | Johnja, I only can give advice..and I'm not a kernel developer...I only help till here..sorry :( | 09:39 |
| froyo | antcha76, I still don't understand what is your situation right now. | 09:39 |
| antcha76 | I have that game | 09:39 |
| antcha76 | I'm developing | 09:40 |
| antcha76 | it's an online RPG | 09:40 |
| antcha76 | until yesterday I would spawn multiple windows of it | 09:40 |
| antcha76 | then this morning everything stopped working | 09:40 |
| antcha76 | well, not everything, the game is still working you know | 09:40 |
| froyo | So, what's the problem? The terminal? or the game? | 09:40 |
| antcha76 | but i can't launch the window more than once | 09:41 |
| antcha76 | the game | 09:41 |
| antcha76 | that i spawn from the terminal | 09:41 |
| GuidovanPossum | hello, recently installed a gpu and followed the guide and everything worked fine with ubuntu, I also had a copy of debain jessie that booted separately from another drive | 09:41 |
| froyo | That's probably something wrong with your game, not the terminal. I gonna try in launch it in VM for testing. | 09:41 |
| froyo | or do you have done any tweaks recently? | 09:42 |
| GuidovanPossum | when I tried to upgrade the drivers for the jessie drive it failed, and also the drivers for the Ubuntu Trusty no longer worked | 09:42 |
| GuidovanPossum | is it odd for another OS to break anothers drivers? | 09:42 |
| antcha76 | froyo, i agree with you, the terminal isnt the problem here | 09:43 |
| antcha76 | but maybe the window manager or one unity's service is forbidding the request to launch another one | 09:43 |
| antcha76 | GuidovanPossum, drivers are OS-dependent | 09:43 |
| GuidovanPossum | I'm just not sure where to go from here then, that's what I thought | 09:44 |
| antcha76 | if you break your ubuntu installation it won't affect your windows installation | 09:44 |
| froyo | antcha76, is your program written in C or C++ (just for fun :D) | 09:45 |
| GuidovanPossum | the only thing I can think that is because the grub set up on the Jessie partion that it may be forcing a generic driver at startup | 09:45 |
| froyo | sudo update-grub | 09:45 |
| cfhowlett | GuidovanPossum, boot nomodeset and reconfigure your gpu??? | 09:46 |
| antcha76 | froyo, it's coded in ActionScript 3 with an Adobe AIR SDK | 09:46 |
| antcha76 | but i'm not in charge of the development of the client | 09:46 |
| antcha76 | i'm just a backend developer | 09:46 |
| froyo | antcha76, it's a Flash game! Nice! I really want learn to make games :D | 09:46 |
| antcha76 | it's really fun you should give it a try | 09:47 |
| froyo | antcha76, can I ask you more further about programming in private chat, because I don't want to ruin this channel topic. | 09:48 |

| baxx | Does any one know if SymLinks have to be absolute paths? Is there a way to make them work with relative paths? I have two different machines and want to sync one across them | 11:59 |
| Walex | baxx: they *ought* to be relative paths. | 12:00 |
| baxx | but when they expand they're absolute - if I create one using ~/some/thing it expands to /home/person/some/thing Walex | 12:01 |
| baxx | so I can't sync the same symLink across machines with different user names, with this at least. cheers Walex | 12:02 |
| lord4163 | baxx: try the -r switch | 12:02 |
| baxx | thanks lord4163 , I'll have a look at that now... just ln -sr /x/x /y/y I'm guessing | 12:03 |
| lord4163 | baxx: sure | 12:04 |
| lord4163 | baxx: and it's probably the shell which autocompletes it, not the ln utility. | 12:05 |
| baxx | lord4163: yeah i think you're right - I make them with relative then they're magically absolute! | 12:06 |
| baxx | lord4163: that works thanks, though it doesn't save the ~/ section of it, just the location of the directory that it was made in, if that makes sense | 12:09 |

| amanthakur | hi guys, i have a strange question. I am trying to make a webserver that will call a program and capture its standard output in a file using the redirect operator ">". I am creating multiple threads after receiving each request on webserver. But i am confusd about onething that will multiple threads output will be written to the same file when is use the redirect operator? OR each thread will be able to create its own output file?? | 12:15 |
| Walex | baxx: you misunderstand how "~" works. | 12:16 |
| EriC^^ | amanthakur: if it's redirecting to the same path then they will rewrite it | 12:16 |
| EriC^^ | amanthakur: you'd have to use >> to append | 12:16 |
| baxx | Walex: EriC^^ indeed | 12:16 |
| amanthakur | EriC^^, no each thread will redirect output with a new filename. | 12:17 |
| Walex | baxx: symlinks can be relative, but they must be *constant* (even if symlinks with variables in them are possible). | 12:17 |
| EriC^^ | amanthakur: also look into if you can use a mutex lock in the web server's programming langauge | 12:17 |
| baxx | lord4163: I'm just having a play now, I think maybe it'll work as the directories above ~ are the same | 12:17 |
| cfhowlett | y | 12:18 |
| amanthakur | EriC^^, isn't mutex needed when we are writing to the same file? | 12:18 |
| EriC^^ | amanthakur: yeah if you're using a different filename that's fine | 12:19 |

| EriC^^ | d3ngar: what are you trying to do? | 16:08 |
| d3ngar | make dev.something.com point to 127.0.0.1, so instead of seeing the web-version, I see the local version | 16:08 |

| researcher1 | ObrienDave: how do I choose right fiefox version or right OS? | 17:27 |
| vasc | my advise is use some sort of browser addon which changes the reported OS | 17:28 |
| vasc | to something else | 17:28 |
| Centennial | can anyone help me to add desktop icons please ... Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome | 17:28 |
| geexmmo | Centennial, what icons? | 17:29 |
| Centennial | I would like to put the firefox icon on the desktop | 17:29 |
| geexmmo | app shortcuts or file links? | 17:29 |
| ObrienDave | researcher1, their requirements are pretty vague. try to narrow them down to more specific versions | 17:29 |
| vasc | like User-Agent Switcher for Chrome | 17:29 |
| ObrienDave | ^^^^^ | 17:29 |
| Centennial | when I try to drag and drop firefox to the desktop it just opens the program | 17:29 |
| geexmmo | Centennial press alt+f2 and run "gnome-desktop-item-edit --create-new ~/Desktop" | 17:29 |
| Pyhscript | it works , lubuntu works! :D | 17:30 |
| geexmmo | it will make a launcher | 17:30 |
| researcher1 | ObrienDave: how do i do that | 17:30 |
| ObrienDave | ask them? | 17:30 |
| Centennial | it says command not found | 17:30 |
| vasc | researcher1 just install User Agent Switcher for Chrome add-on and then try different user agent strings until you get one that works | 17:31 |

| fragment137 | Anyone good with raid? | 17:31 |
| === ph is now known as Guest64660 | ||
| vasc | or preferably get them to fix their broken site. but that's probably expecting too much | 17:31 |
| Centennial | geexmmo it says "command not found" | 17:31 |
| geexmmo | Centennial try pressing tab while entering command, does it give you any hints ? | 17:32 |
| geexmmo | like gnome-<TAB> | 17:32 |
| Centennial | it just keeps saying command not found | 17:33 |
| rypervenche | fragment137: Sorry, I only know software RAID, I'm no good with hardware stuff. | 17:33 |
| fragment137 | That's ok | 17:33 |
| RudeViper | Good afternoon all | 17:33 |
| fragment137 | I appreciate it none the less :) | 17:33 |
| geexmmo | try in terminal | 17:33 |
| Centennial | is this a really hard thing to do in Gnome? Drag and drop icons? is there a better shell I should use? | 17:33 |
| Centennial | I just wanted an easy to use shell that I can drop icons to the desktop | 17:34 |
| Centennial | don't want to go back to windows :( | 17:34 |
| geexmmo | Centennial try holding alt while dragging | 17:35 |
| geexmmo | windowsway | 17:35 |
| Centennial | holding alt just opens firefox when I drag it | 17:35 |
| Centennial | does Mate allow drag and drop icons? | 17:36 |
| geexmmo | start to drag and than hold alt | 17:36 |
| Centennial | ok | 17:36 |
| Centennial | I don't think I'm doing this right...I started to drag, then hit alt, but it opens firefox | 17:36 |
| Guest64660 | also you can use chromium if firefox is not appropried !! | 17:37 |
| geexmmo | cursor changes while alt-dragging? | 17:37 |
| Centennial | I just want to put the icon on my desktop | 17:37 |
| fragment137 | wow what a mess :( | 17:37 |
| Guest64660 | thank you !! | 17:37 |
| Centennial | the cursor is the firefox icon | 17:37 |
| ObrienDave | Centennial, find the executable, right-click, send to desktop (create link). | 17:38 |
| geexmmo | you sure it's gnome ? ;D | 17:38 |
| Centennial | yeah :( | 17:38 |
| fragment137 | this is a storage RAID i was using in windows.. windows sees it completely fine, with no issues. when I boot into ubuntu, it can see the individual drives but not the RAID volume. dmraid can't mount it (Says no such file or directory) and gparted can't see anything, lol | 17:38 |
| Centennial | has a foot when I log in | 17:38 |
| === sergio is now known as Guest2774 | ||
| Centennial | I think I'm going to try out mate instead | 17:38 |
| fragment137 | rypervenche, apparently it's FakeRAID | 17:39 |
| geexmmo | take a look at cinnamon | 17:39 |
| ObrienDave | Centennial, you can just add the mate desktop and select at logon screen | 17:40 |
| MonkeyDust | Centennial what you can do: open filemanager in /usr/share/applications, then copy firefox to the desktop | 17:40 |
| Centennial | yeah it just seems like a lot of work to do something simple like dragging a program to desktop I would rather use a shell that lets me do that from the get-go | 17:41 |
| MonkeyDust | Centennial i agree, should be easier | 17:41 |
| Centennial | it's just been a witch hunt trying to find one that works for me | 17:41 |
| ObrienDave | *bites tongue* | 17:43 |
| johndoe_ | hello 2 everyone | 17:50 |
| johndoe_ | is there anybody here? | 17:53 |
| ObrienDave | nope | 17:53 |
| johndoe_ | oh shite! | 17:53 |
| johndoe_ | anyway i hoped | 17:53 |
| ioria | we are all bots | 17:53 |
| johndoe_ | i see | 17:54 |
| johndoe_ | and very quiet bots | 17:54 |
| ioria | apparences can be deceptive | 17:54 |
| ObrienDave | this is ubuntu support. general chit-chat in #ubuntu-offtopic, please | 17:55 |
| johndoe_ | sorry | 17:55 |
| johndoe_ | thnx | 17:55 |
| yernaten | #hispano | 17:58 |
| teromous | ok I'm back...I've installed cinnamon which so far I think I like better except I'm still trying to figure out how to make a desktop link, is it easier in cinnamon or am I still pretty much SOL lol | 18:01 |
| teromous | well I figured it out! on cinnamon I can right click and add to desktop WOOO! | 18:02 |
| teromous | lol | 18:02 |
| fragment137 | Ok well now I'm running into an issue where I can't install Steam properly because it says it's missing dependencies... but then apt-get -f install shows nothing to install | 18:03 |
| fragment137 | :./ | 18:03 |
| fragment137 | i also can't manually install libs because they say their dependencies won't be installed, but they already exist! O_O | 18:03 |
| Keon | Are there any good steam games on linux? | 18:04 |
| fragment137 | Valve supports linux | 18:04 |
| fragment137 | so | 18:04 |
| fragment137 | basically anything built off the Source engine works | 18:04 |
| Keon | What games do you play? or what games do you think are good? | 18:05 |

| west536457640 | happy easter - i got a wifi problem with ubuntu 14.04 | 18:07 |
| west536457640 | i can fix it - by just booting into recovery mode then rebooting | 18:07 |
| west536457640 | but i would rather it just didnt go down randomly and need that fix | 18:07 |
| fragment137 | ioria, yes I am | 18:07 |
| west536457640 | can anyone suggest something to look at to find the problem? | 18:08 |
| ioria | fragment137, did you try from Software Center ? | 18:08 |
| Wulf | west536457640: merry x-mas! in what way does it not work? | 18:08 |
| fragment137 | Steam installed | 18:08 |
| fragment137 | ioria, but it says it needs to install additional packages, and then it fails to install these because of the issue I described | 18:08 |
| fragment137 | I can take a snapshot if you'd like | 18:08 |
| ioria | fragment137, it says about unmet dependencies ? | 18:09 |
| fragment137 | Yea, one sec I'll screen. | 18:09 |
| west536457640 | Wulf: it just disconnects and will not reconnect to any network - but reboot fixes it so the network and card is ok i think | 18:09 |
| Wulf | west536457640: if you scan for networks, do you see anything? | 18:10 |
| west536457640 | yeah sure always | 18:10 |

| west536457640 | Wulf: ^^ | 18:10 |
| Wulf | west536457640: so you see networks, but you can't connect? | 18:10 |
| Wulf | west536457640: what's the error message? | 18:11 |
| fragment137 | ioria, if I try to install the libraries individually I get the same result, and the packages it seems to depend on are already installed! | 18:11 |
| west536457640 | Yep, it just spins the waiting icon, it will go on forever, reboot and ta-dah! its all good | 18:11 |
| MonkeyDust | west536457640 try using wicd | 18:11 |

| johnja | I'm trying to upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 but the distribution upgrade has failed leaving me with a somewhat broken installation. From what I can tell, the problem seems to be that the packages dpkg and sysv-rc aren't installing. What can I do to correct this | 18:33 |
| motheus | why does ubuntu ever worked with gnome and unity over KDE. we could have a nice default desktop and they ruined it | 18:34 |

| stevecoh1 | after latest upgrade of Ubuntu 14.04, I find that neither my USB mouse nor my wifi connection work. Where to begin trying to resolve. My touchpad works (though I hate it and want to turn it off ASAP) and wired networking works. | 19:09 |
| hdon | bekks, hmm | 19:09 |
| MonkeyDust | JinjaNinja both distro's have a file called /etc/issue boot in ubuntu and look for /etc/issue on any partition that can caontain ubuntu or kali | 19:09 |
| Kaby | ioria2, let me try another browser and i'll tell you what happened | 19:09 |
| MonkeyDust | contain | 19:09 |
| ioria2 | Kaby ok | 19:09 |
| hdon | bekks, how can i understand in more detail? i don't know anything about JFS structure, i only chose it because ten years ago i discovered that JFS worked better when creating or deleting very large files than ext3 did (even for increased filesizes) | 19:10 |

| sinasaharkhiz | Hey guys, anyone has any idea abouth this?: http://askubuntu.com/questions/605158/is-it-possible-to-use-two-external-monitors-for-my-thinkpad-t440p-using-a-lenovo | 19:11 |
| sinasaharkhiz | *about | 19:12 |
| hdon | bekks, couldn't i partition around the broken sectors? | 19:12 |
| bekks | hdon: Your disk has physically broken blocks, these are used by JFS, and reading/writing to them is necessary for repairing your JFS. Since the blocks are broken, your JFS is broken and cannot be repaired. You needto exchange the disk and restore your backup. And I'd not use JFS but ext4. | 19:12 |
| bekks | hdon: the number of broken sectors is going to increase. Your disk is dying soon, very soon. | 19:12 |
| hdon | bekks, you're probably right. it's quite old and the airflow in the machine has been poor for a while. it probably overheated. | 19:13 |
| hdon | bekks, so what should i do? pop in a new HDD and dd the entire thing over, then try to repair the filesystem on the copy? | 19:13 |
| AlphaTech | This is sort of off-topic but I really don't know where to ask... Does anyone know of a place where I can get a .net domain for a one-time non-reoccurring fee? | 19:14 |
| bekks | hdon: It has physical damages on the surface of the platers. If overheating would have been the issue, you would have seen the fire. | 19:14 |
| bekks | hdon: Use a new disk and restore your backup. You cannot dd the broken sectors. | 19:14 |
| hdon | AlphaTech, sure. i run my own registrar. but the one-time fee is very very high compared to the non-recurring fee | 19:15 |
| AlphaTech | hdon: Where is that at? A website? | 19:15 |
| hdon | AlphaTech, we actually don't have a website as we don't solicit customers via the web, we just have contracts with larger companies | 19:16 |
| AlphaTech | hdon: Okay, I'll query you | 19:16 |
| hdon | bekks, yeah you're right | 19:17 |
| Kaby | ioria2, same problem | 19:17 |
| stevecoh1 | Where do I go to find out why my USB mouse has stopped working (Ubuntu 14.04 after upgrade) | 19:17 |

| johnja | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10745911/ | 20:05 |

| Blacksocks | If so start with pkg --configure -a | 20:06 |
| johnja | I'm not in recovery mode, no. | 20:06 |
| Blacksocks | First step is to boot the machine to a shell that you can use to recover. This can be done in the standard system by using the Recovery Mode. Press the left shift key as the system boots up and choose a recovery mode kernel from the menu that appears – it will be labeled with “(recovery mode)” on the end. The recovery mode kernel will present you with the option to use a recovery shell. Johnja | 20:07 |

| faLUCE | Hello, I have two pictures (jpeg) and a mp3 music file. Can you suggest me an EASY program for making a very simple video with these two pictures + music ? | 20:08 |
| johnja | Blacksocks: when I do that I won't be able to reach IRC, so what do I need to do while in recovery mode? | 20:08 |
| Blacksocks | Ok write it down ready | 20:09 |
| Blacksocks | After the system has booted to the menu, select the item that says “Drop to root shell prompt with networking”. This provides you with the ability to update the software packages from the Internet. | 20:09 |
| Blacksocks | When the prompt appears, start by making sure that all currently installed programs are configured: | 20:09 |
| johnja | ok | 20:10 |
| Blacksocks | dpkg --configure -a this is first | 20:10 |
| Blacksocks | Then apt-get update | 20:10 |
| Blacksocks | apt-get upgrade | 20:10 |
| Blacksocks | Then the upgrade | 20:11 |
| hhee | faLUCE: good question me too want same application, clip from jpegs + mp3 | 20:11 |
| Blacksocks | This last step, again, may take a long time to complete. You should pay attention to the list of packages held back (listed at the top of the output from this command); these packages will have to be requested specifically. Usually, packages are held back because they require new software or other drastic changes: the Linux kernel is always held back. Use a command like this one to install these packages: | 20:11 |
| Blacksocks | Example apt-get install some-package some-other-package | 20:12 |
| Blacksocks | You may have to repeat this more than once until all of the packages have been installed and none are held back. | 20:12 |
| johnja | ok | 20:12 |
| Blacksocks | Then try the update and upgrade again | 20:12 |
| johnja | I'll try this now | 20:13 |
| johnja | thanks. | 20:13 |

| Blacksocks | What icons in particular dreamon | 20:31 |
| Blacksocks | Is it the trash icon and the computer or it is your own apps | 20:32 |
| dreamon | Blacksocks, all the desktop icons. I dont want them anymore. want a conky background. I never used the Iocons | 20:32 |
| Blacksocks | I see | 20:32 |
| dreamon | there are a lot of folders there that I copied to desktop.. :( | 20:33 |
| ikonia | they are not icons | 20:33 |
| ikonia | they are desktop items | 20:33 |
| robb-g | Hi, I've managed to wipe the /boot and /boot/uefi partitions on my xubuntu install, is there an easy way to replace these from the boot disc? | 20:33 |
| ikonia | so you won't hide them | 20:33 |
| Blacksocks | And your on gnome fallback, do you have any other DE's installed dreamon | 20:33 |
| dreamon | ikonia, this mean.. I have to move them? | 20:33 |
| ikonia | dreamon: yes, if you have "objects" on the desktop - they will stay until they are not on the deskop | 20:34 |
| dreamon | Blacksocks, Yes I have.. but only use gnome-session-fallback | 20:34 |
| dreamon | cant I hide Desktop from Desktop? | 20:34 |
| ikonia | no | 20:34 |
| ikonia | that is the point of the desktop | 20:34 |
| ikonia | move them to somewhere else | 20:34 |
| Blacksocks | Use gparted from install disk robb-g but it won't restore your files, you might need to reinstall to make them useable | 20:34 |
| ikonia | the Desktop directory - is for the desktop | 20:34 |

| tytan | Hello, everyone. I just installed Ubuntu Server 14.04.2 and software RAID1. My brand new WD Black 3TB make cliching noises like a heart beat. What can cause that? | 20:45 |
| bekks | tytan: A broken disk, typically. | 20:46 |
| johnja | Any thoughts on how to force Ubuntu to remove an unwanted package during a failed distribution upgrade? | 20:46 |
| Blacksocks | It's a bad spot johnja | 20:46 |
| tytan | bekks It sounds like mdadm is doing a sync process but it isn't | 20:47 |
| dreamon | BlackDex, still visible. :( | 20:47 |
| bekks | tytan: Did you check the disk using smartctl? | 20:47 |
| johnja | Blacksocks: You think I'm pretty much up a creek? | 20:47 |
| tytan | bekks yes. didn't say anything | 20:47 |
| mehrdad_ | lab | 20:48 |
| bekks | tytan: Which smartctl command did you use for running a full check? | 20:48 |
| Bashing-om | johnja: As we can not find "lobalogg-dev" . How did you install it ? 3rd party such that ubunti's dpkg has no control over it ? | 20:49 |
| tytan | bekks Someone in #debian gave me one. I don't remember. But I didn't do a full check which would have needed 255 minutes to complete | 20:49 |
| johnja | I don't know how I got it. I was ptrobably drunk when I installed it. These things happen sometimes. | 20:50 |

| === Mirodroid is now known as MirodroidU2 | ||
| ikonia | just as k | 21:16 |
| ikonia | ask | 21:16 |
| ikonia | if someone knows and wants to help, they will | 21:16 |
| esuna114 | Well, in the Openelec doc they say after getting the sources you have to use this command "PROJECT=RPi2 ARCH=arm make release" which I get the error above. I'd like to know how to have output files of the compilation on another place, without this error | 21:17 |
| ikonia | move the source directory to a bigger file systems | 21:17 |
| stevecoh1 | and if not, just sit and wait forever. How in general, can one react after such an upgrade, to get back to functionality? | 21:17 |
| ikonia | it will output fo the source directory | 21:17 |
| ikonia | stevecoh1: boot the old kernel | 21:17 |
| ikonia | it should still be listed in the grub menu | 21:18 |
| esuna114 | I did that, and still got "make: execvp: ./scripts/image: Permission denied" error | 21:18 |
| ikonia | esuna114: fix the permissions then | 21:18 |
| stevecoh1 | Hmm, grub does not come up when I start machine. Is there some way to make it do so? | 21:18 |
| ikonia | stevecoh1: left shift key I think | 21:18 |
| esuna114 | i tryed sudo but no help | 21:18 |
| ikonia | esuna114: sudo does not fix the permissions | 21:18 |
| ikonia | esuna114: what version exactly of ubuntu is this ? | 21:18 |
| stevecoh1 | ok, thanks, will try that. | 21:18 |
| esuna114 | 14.04 | 21:19 |
| ikonia | esuna114: what directory do you have the source code in ? | 21:19 |

| esuna114 | here /media/esuna114/Starbuck/Programmes/RasPi | 21:20 |
| esuna114 | ok BManojlovic, i'll try | 21:20 |
| ikonia | esuna114: /media - is that on local disk ? | 21:20 |
| esuna114 | nope | 21:20 |
| esuna114 | not on the OS disk | 21:20 |
| ikonia | esuna114: what disk ? | 21:20 |
| esuna114 | it's an NTFS disk, should it be a problem? | 21:21 |
| ikonia | esuna114: yes, that will be a problem | 21:21 |
| esuna114 | okay | 21:21 |

| stevecoh1 | previously reported problem with new kernel install. Recommendation was to load previous kernel, using GRUB. But grub was not installed previously. It is now. Will I now be able to load previous kernel? | 21:31 |
| BluesKaj | stevecoh1, have you run sudo update-grub ? | 21:32 |
| stevecoh1 | just now installed grub for first time on this machine. I should run sudo update-grub? | 21:33 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 21:33 |
| stevecoh1 | looks like it worked, let me try now | 21:34 |
| stevecoh1 | thanks | 21:34 |
| TechChristoph | maybe i move to freebsd | 21:37 |
| TechChristoph | because ubuntu, well it works but yeah | 21:38 |
| BluesKaj | TechChristoph, that really tells us a lot :) | 21:39 |
| TechChristoph | i know | 21:39 |
| stevecoh1 | BluesKaj - sudo update-grub did load a bunch of kernels but on boot, pressing left-shift either continually or repeatedly did not bring up grub. Inste | 21:40 |
| TechChristoph | well i play with ubuntu since 2013 | 21:40 |
| stevecoh1 | Instead, ubuntu just loaded normally. | 21:40 |
| BluesKaj | you can edit /etc/default/grub timeout stevecoh1 | 21:42 |
| Bashing-om | stevecoh1: UEFI ? then it is the escape key that grub recognizes . | 21:42 |
| stevecoh1 | change it to what? | 21:42 |
| boot1 | may i ask help here relating to ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-i386.iso | 21:43 |

| Seph | hi guys | 21:51 |
| Seph | i have a problem | 21:51 |
| Seph | my ufw doesnt work | 21:51 |
| Seph | like i even tried blocking ssh and im still connected | 21:51 |
| johnja | I don't know exactly what did it, but somehow I got Synaptic to run and remove something called allegro. Allegro seems to be a undead monster that's been hanging around since Ubuntu 8.04 and it needed to be killed. dpkg --configure -a seems to be doing stuff other than complaining about errors now. | 21:51 |
| NegativeFlare | Seph: I never did like ufw, try using iptables | 21:52 |
| NegativeFlare | unless you want to just shut off ssh altogether | 21:52 |
| NegativeFlare | lol | 21:52 |
| Seph | i dont want to shut off ssh lol | 21:52 |
| Seph | i just want a working firewall | 21:52 |
| NegativeFlare | iptables for you then! | 21:52 |
| NegativeFlare | !iptables | Seph | 21:52 |
| ubottu | Seph: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 21:52 |
| bekks | ufw is a frontend for iptables. | 21:53 |
| Seph | i tried shorewall and it worked but its hard to use | 21:53 |
| NegativeFlare | ufw annoys me, just use iptables | 21:53 |
| NegativeFlare | Its not that hard xD | 21:53 |
| Seph | i just want to test if it will work how can i block port 9987 with it | 21:53 |
| NegativeFlare | Seph: Try out iptables, there's tons of docs about it on the net | 21:55 |
| Seph | ok thnaks | 21:55 |
| johnja | I'm going to attempt a reboot now. Wish me luck. | 22:00 |
| Seph | ufw works but u gotta reboot thats lame | 22:01 |
| stevecoh1 | tried several grub config changes, nothing seems to help, grub won't load. Latest ci=onfig here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10746459/ | 22:02 |
| bekks | Seph: You dont need to reboot. Restarting ufw is sufficient. And existing connections will not be terminated when ufw is started. | 22:03 |
| stevecoh1 | how do I make grub load? | 22:04 |
| OerHeks | stevecoh sudo update-grub after editting | 22:08 |
| JinjaNinja | I'm having an issue with resizing a partition. | 22:09 |
| boot1 | may i ask help please; i've tried creating a bootable usb from file ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-i386.iso using netbootin; but it won't boot? tried also using universal-usb-installer, same result won't boot; any idea? | 22:11 |
| JinjaNinja | I'm having an issue resizing a partition. I'm booted from Ubuntu via live USB and that's fine, but gparted is giving me a hard time. I've deleted a partition, which was a total of 230.94 GiB, and I want to use that free space in my main ubuntu partition. But when I try to resize ubuntu partition to use that free space I made, it's not allowing me t | 22:13 |
| JinjaNinja | o use that space. | 22:13 |
| rypervenche | JinjaNinja: Was the one you deleted before or after your Ubuntu partition? | 22:15 |
| JinjaNinja | it's before it | 22:15 |
| JinjaNinja | it was "sda1", and it had a boot flag. I deleted it because I no longer needed it, it was a Kali OS. | 22:16 |
| MonkeyDust | JinjaNinja make sure one partition is not "primary" and the other "extended"... and be sure to have backups before you start messing with partitons | 22:17 |
| JinjaNinja | MonkeyDust: I have an extended partition, and under this partition is my Ubuntu partition and my swap file. | 22:19 |
| rypervenche | JinjaNinja: I don't know if it is possible to extend a partition with unallocated space before it. | 22:19 |
| JinjaNinja | Oh wow... That sucks. | 22:19 |
| JinjaNinja | Maybe I should just reinstall ubuntu | 22:19 |
| MonkeyDust | JinjaNinja yes, but backup first... and during installation, create a separate /home partition | 22:20 |
| bekks | Sure it is possible to resize an extended partition. | 22:20 |
| bekks | select the extended partition, resize it, then select the contained partitions, and resize them. | 22:21 |
| JinjaNinja | Well, I have 230.94 GiB that is unallocated, and my extended partition is after this unallocated space. | 22:21 |
| stevecoh1 | thought I was home free. Got grub to load - once. Haven't been able to do it again. Every time I try ubuntu comes up. | 22:22 |
| stevecoh1 | and when I did load the earlier kernel system worked fine | 22:22 |
| JinjaNinja | my extended partition is mounted, or so I think? It's not allowing me to resize it, the option is greyed out | 22:23 |
| Bashing-om | boot1: I am back .. OK. 1st step. Did you check the .iso file with 'md5sum/ ? | 22:33 |

| dumle29-irssi | Hey there. Currently using irssi through the ctrl alt f1 terminal. How would I go about restarting an un responsive gnome desktop? | 22:42 |
| stevecoh1 | Can't reliably make grub appear on boot of Ubuntu 14.04. I need to revert kernel to earlier version due to a bug in it. I have installed and upgrade grub so the hidden timeout is non zero but grub mostly doesn't load. I got it to load - ONCE - and not since. | 22:43 |
| stevecoh1 | this is driving me crazy | 22:43 |
| dumle29-irssi | I was watching a youtube video in full screen, and it sorta just crapped out on me when I decided to leave fullscreen, and now the background is just the default gnome gray of the login screen. | 22:44 |

| ericb | dumle29-irssi ah ok, ty | 22:47 |
| dumle29-irssi | ericb: I think you might be able to do some sort of VPN, but I think #networking might be a better resource there | 22:48 |
| ericb | dumle29-irssi: sounds good, ty :) | 22:48 |

| erry | any way to know what's up with it? | 22:57 |
| erry | i pm-suspend seems to die with 128 error code | 22:57 |
| stevecoh1 | Yes, system has UEFI if that is what you are asking | 22:57 |
| stevecoh1 | I turned off quick boot, and always see the splash bios screen, but leaning on Shift does NOT cause grub to show, although, once it did and hasn't since. | 22:58 |
| Bashing-om | stevecoh1: Then grub is looking for the escape key as the interrupt signal . | 22:58 |
| stevecoh1 | lean on ESC or press it repeatedly? | 22:58 |
| Bashing-om | stevecoh1: I think repeatedly as soon as the firmware screen clears, there is but a very small window for grub to recogmize the key press . | 22:59 |
| stevecoh1 | well let me try that then | 23:00 |

I allowed a kernel update and failed to reinstall the nVidia drivers before rebooting. Is there any way to get a working GNOME session with a new kernel version without buying an ATI card or am I totally screwed? | 23:24 |
| bekks | ubroken: Just install the nvidia drivers? | 23:26 |
| zteam | Hi all! | 23:28 |
| ubroken | bekks: I can't. The bleeping nvidia driver installers won't work because I have to use an old kernel version to boot. | 23:29 |
| zteam | I was trying to overwrite my usb stick with DD but I got a really strange error message | 23:29 |

| ubroken | bekks: no. How do I do that? | 23:32 |
| zteam | bekks, okey, are your sure it, just fellt very odd that it complaining about free space, then I overwrite it just free space | 23:33 |
| OerHeks | aladiah, 26th, join #ubuntu+1 for more info | 23:33 |
| aladiah | thanks OerHeks | 23:33 |
| bekks | zteam: I am sure. You did not specify any specific amount of data to be written, so it wrote zero's until the device was full. | 23:34 |
| OerHeks | zteam, that is because the mbr is not exactly full 1024 kb, so there are kbytes left. | 23:34 |
| OerHeks | zteam there is an option for that, to avoid those errors, can't find it quickly | 23:35 |
| bekks | zteam: The MBR is 440 bytes, followed by 64 bytes for the primary partition table. | 23:36 |
| bekks | Erm, 448 bytes :) | 23:36 |

| onca | I started /usr/sbin/sshd from the command line and forward the appropriate port before I left for work, logged in once from one system before shutting down and trying to log in again on a second system using putty, but it rejects my password. | 23:44 |
| onca | I know the password is correct. | 23:44 |
| onca | what am I experiencing ? | 23:45 |
| EriC^^ | pwnage? | 23:45 |

| EriC^^ | has it worked from putty before? | 23:48 |
| EriC^^ | maybe it's a keyboard layout thing or something? | 23:48 |

| onca | I just moved back to that computer. | 23:48 |
| onca | and it won't let me log in. | 23:48 |
