| ubottu | Kaby: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:11 |
| Alias | Could someone help steer me towards how to solve a black screen after the splash screen and the only way i can get around it is by pressing keys during the splash screen | 00:11 |
| somsip | nahtnam: looks like you need to be a working directory to run that command | 00:11 |
| somsip | !nomodeset | Alias (maybe try this first) | 00:11 |
| ubottu | Alias (maybe try this first): A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 00:11 |
| Alias | i tried it didnt seem to help | 00:12 |

| johnja | I've given up on recovering a failed upgrade from 14.04 -> 14.10 and am ready to buy a new HDD to reinstall 14.04 on. What do I need to do to transfer my stuff to what will essentially be a new computer? | 00:13 |
| bekks | nahtnam: You need to put the full path for dokku into your crontab | 00:14 |
| nahtnam | bekks: I have no idea which directory its installed in (Digital ocean just setup a server for me) | 00:14 |
| nahtnam | How can I find out? | 00:14 |
| bekks | nahtnam: "which dokku" | 00:15 |
| Alias | somsip i will try it again and report back if it doesnt work | 00:15 |
| nahtnam | bekks: So I would do something like this: ` * * * * * /usr/local/bin/dokku run app rake newsletter:daily --silent`? | 00:17 |
| jmaradin | johnja: a good place to start would be everything in /home/$WHATEVERYOURHOME directory is. | 00:17 |
| bekks | nahtnam: Yes. | 00:18 |
| nahtnam | bekks: Ty | 00:18 |
| bekks | johnja: You can just reinstall on your HDD, you dont need to buy a new one. | 00:18 |
| somsip | nahtnam: old issue referenced here suggests sudo -u dokku https://github.com/progrium/dokku/issues/451 | 00:21 |
| johnja | bekks: I don't have enough storage to bak up my home folde. it is #$%$# excessively large. I'll need to buy a new HDD anyway, so I might as wel get something faster to use as / and go from there. | 00:21 |

| kryptonic56 | deSouza drag and drop? | 00:29 |

| kryptonic56 | hmm | 00:29 |
| Alias | somsip no luck with nomodeset | 00:29 |
| kryptonic56 | just one of those linux issues I guess lol...I seem to have a new issue every other day but thats one of the things I love about linux is the hacking never stops lol | 00:30 |
| MK-Live | Hey, my Ubuntu has frozen up; I cannot switch terminals with ctrl-alt-f1. What's the best thing to do in this situation? Wait for whatever was freezing it to finish up (I suspect it might be something that may end)? or something else? | 00:30 |
| deSouza | its not working for my mate either | 00:30 |
| kryptonic56 | Im having an issue with moving a file into my home directory :/ | 00:30 |
| fragment137 | Anyone able to help me with not being able to mount a RAID5 volume? | 00:33 |
| MK-Live | Anyone? Kind of a pressing issue here. | 00:33 |
| Alias | This black screen after the splash screen is annoying | 00:33 |
| fragment137 | lol | 00:33 |
| Bashing-om | MK-Live: Magic SysRq key method: hold down the Alt+SysRq keys and slowly run through the sequence R,E,I,S,U,B - after the B, your system will reboot . | 00:34 |
| halfburnttoast | MK-Live, if your caps lock key isn't responding, the kernel likely crashed | 00:34 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, what's wrong with the array? | 00:34 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, I don't know that there's anything actually wrong with the array. it was made in the RAID bios (Intel 82801), and then formatted to NTFS using windows | 00:35 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, also, is this a mdadm array or hardware? | 00:35 |
| fragment137 | mounts and is viewable completely fine in windows and on a livecd | 00:35 |
| halfburnttoast | ah | 00:35 |
| fragment137 | Ubuntu livecd I should specify... but now I'm not able to mount it | 00:35 |
| fragment137 | when I try I get "no such file or directory" | 00:35 |
| halfburnttoast | but, it shows up in lsblk? | 00:35 |
| fragment137 | I can show you the output if you'd liek | 00:36 |
| fragment137 | like* | 00:36 |
| MK-Live | Bashing-om: I ran through REISUB and nothing happened :S | 00:36 |
| fragment137 | and yes lsblk does see all three drives, and that they're part of a RAID | 00:36 |
| fragment137 | dmraid -ay results in "RAID set "isw_cciiabdhdg_RAID Storage" was activated | ERROR: opening "/dev/mapper/isw_cciiabdhdg_RAID Storage" | 00:36 |
| halfburnttoast | MK-Live, if alt+sysreq+b didn't instantly reboot your system, nothing will. Hold the power down until it shuts down | 00:36 |
| MK-Live | I see, thanks. | 00:37 |
| halfburnttoast | hmmm | 00:37 |
| MK-Live | Which log file should I look at for an issue that would have caused such a crash? | 00:37 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, do you have luks or lvm or anything running on top of the array? | 00:37 |
| Alias | anyone able to help? | 00:38 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, could you tell me how to determine that? | 00:38 |
| daftykins | Alias: what hardware? | 00:38 |
| daftykins | sure you turned on nomodeset properly? | 00:38 |
| Alias | yes im positive | 00:38 |
| === kalen is now known as kalen_not-here | ||
| Alias | im on a emachine E528 | 00:39 |
| daftykins | that doesn't really narrow down the hardware specification for me sadly | 00:39 |
| daftykins | and what version are you trying to boot? | 00:39 |
| Alias | ubuntu 14.04 and what hardware info would you like | 00:39 |
| daftykins | CPU, RAM, graphics | 00:40 |
| TimeVirus | that reminds me I need to install inxi | 00:40 |
| halfburnttoast | hmm | 00:40 |
| Alias | CPU: Omtel Celeron 900 RAM: 8gb ddr3 Graphics: Intel GMA 4500M | 00:40 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, I just read that you set it up in windows, you wouldn't have either of them running then most likely | 00:40 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, Yes I was just going to say that. Google'd whether windows used LVM or not, lol | 00:41 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, what happens if you try and mount the array manually? | 00:41 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, you mean with dmraid or just with mount? | 00:41 |
| daftykins | Alias: and what's the exact ISO you downloaded? did you put it on a flash drive or DVD? | 00:41 |
| AKI2 | j | 00:41 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, well, if the array is showing up in lsblk, you should just be able to mount the block device manually with mount | 00:41 |
| fragment137 | I get this: fragment@SENTINELINUX:~$ sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/mapper/isw_cciiabdhdg_RAID\\x20Storage2 /media/fragment/ | fuse: mount failed: No such file or directory | 00:42 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, it should show up as a single block device | 00:42 |
| Alias | flash drive it was the 64 bit ubuntu 14.04 LTS iso and it was working fine and then out of the clear blue this started | 00:42 |
| tim_ | hy all... i am running ubuntu 14lts.. and.. i ran on some update problems | 00:42 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, does the block device actually have backslashes in the name? | 00:42 |
| fragment137 | it's a space actually | 00:42 |
| daftykins | Alias: you've tried waiting longer i take it? | 00:42 |
| fragment137 | escape character I'm assuming | 00:43 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, ah | 00:43 |
| fragment137 | sec. | 00:43 |
| Alias | yes and to no luck i usually have to reboot about 5 times and occasionally press keys and hope that it will bring up the login screen | 00:43 |
| fragment137 | I suppose it wasn't very considerate of me to name the array with a space, lol. | 00:43 |
| daftykins | Alias: so this is an installed copy, not the live session? | 00:43 |
| Alias | Correct | 00:43 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, eh, probably not the best idea for a *nix system, but I don't see why it wouldn't work | 00:43 |
| fragment137 | what I'm finding interesting, is even if I manually create a mount point | 00:44 |
| tim_ | hy all... i am running ubuntu 14lts.. and.. i ran on some update problems.. now bagging for someone to help me out :-S | 00:44 |
| fragment137 | it then tries to make a new folder with an appended 1 | 00:44 |
| fragment137 | and then subsequently fails. | 00:44 |
| daftykins | tim_: address the channel with a paste of what is going wrong - http://paste.ubuntu.com | 00:44 |
| halfburnttoast | what do you mean? make a folder where? | 00:44 |
| Bashing-om | !details | tim_ | 00:44 |
| fragment137 | in /media/fragment | 00:44 |
| ubottu | tim_: 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) | 00:44 |
| fragment137 | for example, I make "/media/fragment/RAID Storage" and then try to mount the array using Nautilus (gui) | 00:45 |
| fragment137 | it responds with something about unable to mount to RAID Storage1 | 00:45 |
| fragment137 | minute | 00:45 |
| fragment137 | I'll show you an example | 00:45 |
| tim_ | ok, ok.. will do | 00:45 |
| daftykins | fragment137: pro tip, don't use a space in paths | 00:45 |
| fragment137 | daftykins, Indeed I didn't think about that when I was making the array. | 00:46 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, and you're remembering to escape the spaces in the name when you're passing the commands, right? | 00:46 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, yes I am. | 00:46 |
| fragment137 | http://imgur.com/IeUnxBm | 00:46 |
| halfburnttoast | ok | 00:46 |
| fragment137 | This is the result without making the directory. Only thing that changes is "RAID Storage" turns into "RAID Storage1" in the error message. | 00:47 |
| Alias | daftykins may i pm you? | 00:47 |
| fragment137 | also the results using 'mount' are the same with either the /dev/mapper location or /dev/dm-2 | 00:47 |
| daftykins | Alias: nah keep it in channel | 00:47 |
| Alias | ok no problem | 00:47 |
| tim_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10747034/ | 00:48 |
| Alias | tim_ it tells you what to try to correct | 00:49 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, that is odd... anything come up in dmesg? | 00:49 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, what should I look for specifically? | 00:49 |
| Alias | tim_ try sudo apt-get -f install | 00:50 |
| halfburnttoast | anything to do with a mount failure or something along those lines | 00:50 |
| tim_ | did not work | 00:50 |
| halfburnttoast | well | 00:50 |
| Alias | hmm | 00:50 |
| daftykins | tim_: you have to pastebin the output of that too | 00:50 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, not that I can see. I see diagnostics of the RAID, and that it's recognizing the physical drives, and their position in the raid | 00:50 |
| tim_ | will do now | 00:50 |
| fragment137 | it's also recognizing the proper type of array as well (RAID5) | 00:51 |
| Alias | daftykins any clue as to what could be the problem causing the black screen? | 00:51 |
| halfburnttoast | i feel like, since it's saying 'no such file or directory' it's gotta be an issue with the name or something | 00:51 |
| daftykins | Alias: hmm not really, but can you throw 14.04.1 on the flash drive and see how that boots as a live session? | 00:51 |
| fragment137 | Which sucks, because I don't want to have to rebuild the RAID just to rename it, lol | 00:52 |
| Alias | i will see if i have a spare flash drive | 00:52 |
| fragment137 | also I'd have to move data around and I've already done that once this week to re-create the RAID, lol... | 00:52 |
| halfburnttoast | what if you do something like 'mkdir /mnt/test' and then manually try to mount the array to that? | 00:52 |
| fragment137 | Still fails | 00:52 |
| fragment137 | which is just eff'd u | 00:52 |
| fragment137 | up | 00:52 |
| daftykins | fragment137: but essentially why are you messing about with a RAID that's NTFS formatted under Linux 0o | 00:52 |
| fragment137 | Dual boot | 00:52 |
| fragment137 | Linux/Windows | 00:52 |
| halfburnttoast | windows | 00:52 |
| halfburnttoast | yeah | 00:52 |
| daftykins | messy. | 00:53 |
| Bashing-om | tim_: the version should be "2.0.2+dfsg1-3ubuntu1.1: amd64 i386" // What you have is newer. PPA ? perhaps remove the XXX.dev package ? | 00:53 |
| fragment137 | if it was just linux it would be ext4.. or at the very least exFat | 00:53 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, mind pastebining the output of this command | 00:53 |
| daftykins | you couldn't install to exFAT ;) | 00:53 |
| fragment137 | daftykins, Actually have both OS' on two separate SSD's :P the RAID is pure storage | 00:53 |
| Alias | daftykins just found this as the graphics Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.5, 128 bits) | 00:53 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, 'strace mount -t ntfs /dev/dm-2 /media/RAID\ Storage' | 00:54 |
| daftykins | Alias: from the about page, or where? | 00:54 |
| Alias | the about computer | 00:54 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, sure one sec | 00:54 |
| daftykins | mmm doesn't help too much that | 00:54 |
| tim_ | Alias, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10747065/ | 00:54 |
| daftykins | tim_: yeah your errors are being explained in that paste, you have the same file in two packages - remove one package :) | 00:55 |
| tim_ | please for detalied - how to.. :-S | 00:55 |
| Alias | daftykins could doing a distro upgrade help? | 00:55 |
| daftykins | seriously | 00:55 |
| tim_ | sorry.. newb :-( | 00:56 |
| daftykins | Alias: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" probably not but shouldn't hurt | 00:56 |
| daftykins | tim_: why are you installing SDL anyway? | 00:56 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, alternatively, you could run that command and append ' | pastebinit' and it'll do it for you. I keep forgetting that command is a thing | 00:56 |
| fragment137 | lol alright that's what I'll do | 00:56 |
| daftykins | it is if it's installed :D | 00:56 |
| fragment137 | I couldn't get the full output | 00:56 |

| tim_ | done | 01:00 |
| daftykins | that's a horrible paste XD | 01:00 |
| Zimmedon | daftykins: Fair enough, I'm not expecting support for a bleeding edge kernel, but rather I am interested in if Canonical is intending to kill off /dev/mem support? | 01:00 |
| fragment137 | I know, lol | 01:00 |
| daftykins | tim_: did it remove both fine? | 01:00 |

| tim_ | smooth chriminal.. ow.. i meant working.. Daftykins, thank u.. and others as well :-) | 01:10 |
| fragment137 | any sense in me booting to a livecd and seeing what's different? | 01:10 |
| fragment137 | if I boot into windows it works a treat | 01:11 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, it may, makes me wonder if there's some driver bug, but you said it's a fresh install... | 01:11 |
| halfburnttoast | hmmmmm | 01:11 |
| fragment137 | Indeed | 01:11 |
| fragment137 | Give me a few minutes.. downloading something and then i'll boot to livecd | 01:12 |
| daftykins | fresh install of a lovely LTS? | 01:12 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, before you do, mind running one more command? | 01:12 |
| fragment137 | Sure thing | 01:13 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, 'ltrace -o output mount -t ntfs /dev/dm-2 /media/RAID\ Storage' | 01:14 |
| halfburnttoast | that should create a log file 'output', if you could pastebin that too that'd be sweet | 01:14 |
| fragment137 | where should the output file be | 01:14 |
| fragment137 | pwd? | 01:14 |
| fragment137 | oop never mind | 01:14 |
| fragment137 | answered my own question | 01:14 |
| halfburnttoast | lol | 01:15 |
| fragment137 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10747125/ | 01:15 |
| halfburnttoast | thanks | 01:15 |
| fragment137 | required me to sudo | 01:16 |
| fragment137 | hope that's alright | 01:16 |
| halfburnttoast | this is weird | 01:17 |
| fragment137 | eh? | 01:17 |
| halfburnttoast | can you run the command 'mount', that mount point isn't already mounted is it? | 01:18 |
| fragment137 | no it's not already used from what I can see | 01:19 |
| fragment137 | To add even more variables in, I have a separate 4TB hard drive (also formatted with NTFS) that mounts without issue | 01:19 |
| daftykins | i don't see how that is related | 01:20 |
| fragment137 | To make the point that i'm not having issues mounting everything | 01:20 |
| halfburnttoast | why is mount exiting 21 | 01:20 |
| fragment137 | And also to (possibly) eliminate how windows formatted the partition. | 01:20 |
| fragment137 | I'm assuming that's to return No such file? | 01:20 |
| mchelen | anyone know an alternative to the unity application launcher than can be started with a keyboard shortcut? | 01:21 |

| mchelen | ekool: hmm let me try that | 01:22 |
| Kwaku | So I have this really simple bash script to restart my network manager and cups when i get dropped off the network: http://pastebin.com/gXJS3wGj :::: I'm trying to make it executable and easily found via Unity in Ubuntu 14.04. It isn't working... | 01:25 |
| daftykins | you don't even have a shebang in there | 01:26 |
| Ben64 | Kwaku: you shouldn't need to restart things like that | 01:27 |
| hkrrsx | mchelen, there's also Synapse -- http://www.webupd8.org/2010/11/syanpse-is-here-new-semantic-launcher.html | 01:27 |
| halfburnttoast | oh | 01:27 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, what was the mapper name of the block device again? | 01:27 |
| hkrrsx | You start it with Ctrl + Space and it's pretty good stuff | 01:27 |
| halfburnttoast | the full name | 01:28 |
| fragment137 | brw-rw---- 1 root disk 252, 2 Apr 5 20:35 isw_cciiabdhdg_RAID\x20Storage2 | 01:28 |
| fragment137 | that's from /dev/mapper | 01:28 |
| halfburnttoast | i think that's the problem | 01:28 |
| fragment137 | oh? | 01:28 |
| halfburnttoast | the escape character is messing up one of the calls | 01:28 |
| fragment137 | ooooo | 01:28 |
| fragment137 | little bugger. | 01:28 |
| halfburnttoast | line 526 of your strace output | 01:28 |
| halfburnttoast | well... maybe | 01:29 |
| halfburnttoast | why would it work on the liveCD then? | 01:29 |
| fragment137 | Silly as this sounds, could you link me again? | 01:29 |

| fragment137 | Yea that doesn't look right | 01:30 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, do you remember what the liveCD used as the mapper name? was it the same one? | 01:30 |
| === sleepypc is now known as `hypermist` | ||
| mchelen | hkrrsx: looks like synapse package is deprecated in 14.04 | 01:31 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, not sure, but I can boot to it to check | 01:32 |
| fragment137 | give me a minute. need to grab muh flash dive :P | 01:32 |
| fragment137 | drive even | 01:32 |
| halfburnttoast | k | 01:32 |
| hkrrsx | mchelen, so you're right, it seems ... | 01:32 |
| Kwaku | Ben64, this was to be a quick and dirty solution for a minor problem... | 01:32 |
| fragment137 | right, brb. gonna boot to it | 01:32 |
| hkrrsx | mchelen, if you're comfortable with adding a PPA to your system in order to get Synapse, see this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/577711/how-to-install-synapse-in-ubuntu-14-04 | 01:33 |
| hkrrsx | If not, then I digress | 01:33 |
| ekool | mchelen: I've never used it... just know it might have done what you needed. | 01:33 |
| fragment137 | right | 01:35 |
| fragment137 | so it doesn't see the raid volume atm, ha | 01:35 |
| fragment137 | actually one sec... | 01:35 |
| halfburnttoast | heh | 01:35 |
| fragment137 | no that's just messed. It was reading it before :| | 01:36 |
| fragment137 | I used a livecd to transfer data between the RAID and other media, lol... | 01:36 |
| fragment137 | faaaak | 01:36 |
| halfburnttoast | but it still works under windows? | 01:36 |
| fragment137 | fuuuck me | 01:36 |
| fragment137 | it is the array name | 01:36 |
| halfburnttoast | :/ | 01:37 |
| fragment137 | exact same error on the livecd now | 01:37 |
| fragment137 | and I'm an idiot, cause I was remembering the old RAID, that was just called "Storage" | 01:37 |
| halfburnttoast | yeah, I think the escape character isn't being handled correctly by one of the calls | 01:37 |
| fragment137 | and that worked on the livecd | 01:37 |
| mchelen | hkrrsx: ah i guess the question is whether the app itself is still maintained | 01:37 |
| fragment137 | well damnit, lol | 01:37 |
| halfburnttoast | don't think these systems are expecting spaces in the block device names | 01:37 |
| halfburnttoast | :s | 01:37 |
| fragment137 | is there any way for me to rename the array without having to recreate it? | 01:37 |
| mchelen | ekool: it looks close, idk how much tweaking it needs tho | 01:37 |
| halfburnttoast | uhhhhhmmmmm, lemme see | 01:37 |
| fragment137 | If I absolutely half to I'll move the data back over and recreate it, but it would save me SO much time if I could just rename it -.- | 01:38 |
| fragment137 | have to.. wow. I english good. | 01:39 |
| fragment137 | I'll be back in a few minutes. gonna take a look in the RAID bios. | 01:39 |
| mchelen | ekool hkrrsx i found the cairo-dock launcher is pretty nice, i just need to set a better kb shortcut | 01:40 |
| hkrrsx | mchelen, best of luck ... I believe there's an option at the Ubuntu log in screen to choose Cairo Dock as a desktop environment, which it completely replaces Unity | 01:41 |
| hkrrsx | At least, that's what happened when I last used Cairo Dock on Ubuntu | 01:42 |
| mchelen | hkrrsx: yah i haven't tried that, but i am using gnome-flashback + cairo | 01:42 |
| mchelen | and its working well so far | 01:42 |
| kryptonic56 | I tried moving a couple files into my home directory and a folder containing a couple files and they dont show up...i try to add them again and it says replace files but again still doesnt show up am i missing something here? | 01:42 |
| somsip | kryptonic56: what command did you use>? | 01:43 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, do those files now have a period in front of them? | 01:44 |
| fragment137 | so I'm pretty sure I won't be able to rename it | 01:45 |
| Kwaku | Ben64, so any suggestions? | 01:45 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, I'm trying to find out if there's a way to force a block device name by UUID | 01:46 |
| fragment137 | hey if there's another method of mounting this without using that /dev/mapper name | 01:46 |
| fragment137 | then I'm all for it, lol | 01:46 |
| fragment137 | but I don't know what the UUID of the volume would be o.O | 01:46 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, what's in your /etc/fstab, by the way? | 01:46 |
| fragment137 | just my root and my swap | 01:47 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, run 'blkid', it should give you the UUID for the device | 01:47 |
| Ben64 | Kwaku: seems like you're not fixing anything by doing that, work on the actual problem instead | 01:47 |
| fragment137 | yea I got the UUID | 01:47 |
| fragment137 | I can try adding it to fstab with that, yea? | 01:47 |
| fragment137 | might be a workaround | 01:47 |
| halfburnttoast | well, fstab won't make a block device | 01:48 |
| fragment137 | :| | 01:48 |
| fragment137 | /dev/mapper/isw_cciiabdhdg_RAID\x20Storage2: LABEL="RAID5Storage" UUID="0C76C6C276C6AC30" TYPE="ntfs" | 01:48 |
| fragment137 | tried changing the label | 01:48 |
| fragment137 | in windows... | 01:48 |
| fragment137 | that's all it did, lol | 01:48 |
| halfburnttoast | :s | 01:48 |
| kryptonic56 | hkrrsx yes they do | 01:49 |
| halfburnttoast | there's a udev way to do it, but I don't remember how | 01:49 |
| kryptonic56 | im trying to get conky to work | 01:49 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, the dot in front of files/folders turns them into hidden files/folders | 01:49 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, if you remove that beginning dot, they'll show up again | 01:49 |
| kryptonic56 | ok so then it should still work even with the dot? | 01:50 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, alternatively, you can press Ctrl + H in the file manager to Show Hidden Files/Folders and they'll appear ..... along w/ a bunch of other files/folders in your home directory | 01:50 |
| hkrrsx | :) | 01:50 |
| Kwaku | Ben64, right, so my problem is that the network drops and then I can't find the router again. Restarting the network manager works. If the nm does find my router again, it is usually a very spotty connection. I figure it is because there are many wifi signals and there is probably a channel conflict or something... | 01:50 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, yes, they'll work, they're just hidden | 01:50 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, you mean mounting a raid volume with udev? | 01:50 |
| kryptonic56 | khrrsx thanks im going to try this again and see if i cant get it to work | 01:50 |
| halfburnttoast | halfburnttoast, well I mean when it's assigned the block name | 01:51 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, you're welcome | 01:51 |
| Ben64 | Kwaku: ok, so focus on the network dropping problem | 01:53 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, I'm gunna test something real quick | 01:54 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, sure thing. Really appreciate the help :) | 01:54 |
| fragment137 | i'll be right back. testing something as well | 01:56 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, sure! Ok, try this 'sudo dmsetup rename /dev/mapper/isw_cciiabdhdg_RAID\x20Storage2 raidtest' | 01:56 |
| halfburnttoast | that should rename the mapper device file, but it'll still point to the same block device | 01:57 |
| halfburnttoast | temporarily | 01:57 |

| halfburnttoast | fragment137, I have a command for you to try | 02:03 |
| fragment137 | I thought I'd try to get it to mount using the UUID | 02:03 |
| Guest76780 | hi! good night | 02:03 |
| fragment137 | but that just locked up the OS on boot, lol | 02:03 |
| halfburnttoast | it'll only work temporarily, but it will change the mapper name | 02:03 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, what's that? | 02:03 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, try this 'sudo dmsetup rename /dev/mapper/isw_cciiabdhdg_RAID\x20Storage2 raidtest' | 02:04 |
| Guest76780 | not locked boot | 02:04 |
| halfburnttoast | it'll rename the mapper name. try mounting it after that | 02:04 |

| drocsid | I have an ubuntu server and I see that the host aliases in /etc/hosts is set to 127.0.1.1 . Since the host is in the datacenter, can I set this to the ip address of the ethernet interface instead? | 02:10 |

| halfburnttoast | drocsid, just curious, is there a reason to change it from the loopback address? | 02:11 |
| drocsid | Ben64: are you telling me that I shouldn't ? I think that some java applications depend on this to be set to the interface ip. | 02:11 |
| Ben64 | drocsid: nothing needs that set to an external ip | 02:12 |
| drocsid | halfburnttoast: have you ever run an oozie server, if you set the hostname alias to 127.0.0.1 then it breaks oozie | 02:12 |
| kryptonic56 | khrrsx lol this is the first time ive used IRC since then also...I forgot all about this place and all amount of knowledge some of the users on here have as well as the good convos | 02:13 |
| halfburnttoast | drocsid, no I haven't, but if loopback goes down, you'll have a lot more that breaks | 02:13 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, ditto .... however, let's keep this support channel on topic :) | 02:15 |

| loadedanvils | I encrypted my home partition and reinstalled ubuntu with ecryptfs, how do I recover it? | 02:16 |
| halfburnttoast | loadedanvils, did you back up the key? | 02:17 |

| loadedanvils | the problem is just replacing current home and mounting that partition | 02:17 |
| loadedanvils | I've been having trouble with it | 02:17 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, enjoy your stay :) | 02:17 |

| Tooncenator | any recommendations on the best channel for Ubuntu troubleshooting advice? | 02:21 |

| drocsid | when you break a production server due to setting 127.0.0.1 to your fqdn, you will feel the pain. 127.0.0.1 is set to localhost | 02:21 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, have you updated the system lately ? | 02:22 |
| drocsid | not sure what this 127.0.1.1 set to the fqdn is about, some strange ubuntu / debian stuff. | 02:22 |
| kryptonic56 | hkrrsx i ran updates last night | 02:22 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, ok, then let's have the terminal output please | 02:22 |

| lacan | anyone knows how to make Ubuntu 14.10 to detect my usb modem when usb3 mode enabled on BIOS?! | 02:28 |
| daftykins | can't use a USB 2 port huh? | 02:29 |
| MaMax | PLEASE I want the channel list | 02:29 |
| daftykins | MaMax: the what? | 02:29 |
| hkrrsx | kryptonic56, while not trying to insult your intelligence, here's the wiki article on memory leaks: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_leak | 02:30 |
| MaMax | all channel for this server | 02:30 |
| lacan | i need to use usb3 port somehow for better speed file transfer !!! | 02:30 |
| daftykins | MaMax: that has nothing to do with an ubuntu support channel. go and ask #freenode please. | 02:31 |
| kryptonic56 | hkrrsx lol no insult taken....i sometimes forget google lol | 02:31 |
| MaMax | I find that. Thank | 02:31 |
| lacan | there's no issues when i disabled usb3 support on bios.. but it's better to turn it on for better filetransfer since ubuntu was the first OS that supprt usb3..! | 02:32 |
| daftykins | lacan: USB 3 is not going to improve a 'modem' | 02:33 |
| daftykins | :P | 02:33 |
| Bonjour | What's up Ubuntu? | 02:35 |
| ianorlin | !ot |Bonjour | 02:35 |
| ubottu | Bonjour: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 02:35 |
| Alias | hey daftykins | 02:36 |
| lacan | yeah.. i knw tht but when i disconnect my modem then it's good to use my usb3 flashdisk for faster tansfer data. | 02:36 |
| jayotaku | But will it run crysis | 02:37 |
| Bonjour | lacan, obviously less ram and cpu consumption will take place. which makes your data fasting more | 02:37 |

| Bonjour | Do Ubuntu comes up with user name and password? | 02:40 |
| lacan | no, i mean i want to use the benefit of my usb3 port on ubuntu which faster than usb3 cause usb3 write and read speed is faster about 30mb/s and 100mb/s. | 02:40 |
| Bonjour | usb3 is faster then usb3?? | 02:41 |
| AndChat327600 | I like to edit partition table but it was locked and the account which is automatically booted from live cd isnot a admin account to edit partion table? | 02:42 |
| lacan | usb3 is faster thn usb2, cause my notebook support it and i have one usb3 then it's better to it for saving my data. | 02:42 |
| Alias | what are you using to edit them? | 02:42 |
| Bonjour | AndChat327600, You need a sudo user or root | 02:42 |

| jmadero1 | hi all - my external hard drive just all of the sudden added a directory that "mirrors" another directory - I have "MOVIES" and "Movies" - both have same content but it's not duplicated (i.e. not taking up twice the size). Want to remove "Movies" but afraid it's going to delete content in MOVIES...suggestion? | 02:51 |
| Alias | move data delete Movies and put the data back? | 02:52 |
| jmadero1 | Alias: it's literally all the same content - but again it's not really duplicating | 02:52 |
| jmadero1 | because it's not taking up 2x the space | 02:52 |
| jmadero1 | it's as if Movies is pointing to MOVIES | 02:52 |
| jmadero1 | but it's not a symlink.... | 02:52 |
| coalie_koo_koo | hi all. i have an SSD (for OSes) and an HDD (for storage, or non-performance critical stuff) on my computer. i have windows already installed (on the SSD). i am installing ubuntu now, and making space for it manually | 02:53 |
| raschy | So I've got an interesting problem. Using the proprietary nvidia drivers makes my touchpad not work. It's still able to click but cannot move the cursor. | 02:53 |
| coalie_koo_koo | what should i select for mount point? | 02:53 |
| Alias | thats why im saying move the data off the device and delete the data then add the data back | 02:53 |
| jmadero1 | coalie_koo_koo: the root mount point is always / | 02:53 |
| jmadero1 | Alias: I don't have that kind of space available anywhere else :-/ | 02:53 |
| jmadero1 | Alias: more fun news is that with terminal "Movies" does not show the same content | 02:54 |
| Alias | if its not taking up any extra space then why worry about it? | 02:54 |
| coalie_koo_koo | jmadero1: awesome, okay. should i just choose that for installation, and later swap certain folders over to the HDD? | 02:54 |
| OerHeks | jmadero1, remove that symlink fist? sounds simple | 02:54 |
| jmadero1 | it's not a symlink | 02:54 |
| jmadero1 | it's really crazy - this folder just appeared | 02:54 |
| daftykins | jmadero1: auto mount? remove it and mount manually | 02:54 |
| jmadero1 | coalie_koo_koo: I have a different way of doing things... | 02:54 |
| coalie_koo_koo | jmadero1: oh | 02:54 |
| jmadero1 | coalie_koo_koo: if you're doing it "right" you should separate home from root | 02:55 |
| Alias | jmadero1: have you tried removing the device and reconnecting it to see if the file disappears | 02:55 |
| jmadero1 | daftykins: tried | 02:55 |
| jmadero1 | Alias: yeah :-/ | 02:55 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | Hello | 02:55 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | Does anyone know how to disable services that are messing with monitor mode? | 02:55 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | Or just kill those processes | 02:56 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | for a certain amount of time | 02:56 |
| Alias | jmadero1: I actually stumped as to what could be causing that | 02:56 |
| jmadero1 | coalie_koo_koo: my suggestion (and others might disagree), is to create three partitions, 1 for root (20 gigs or so unless you're doing crazy stuff like building that requires a ton of libraries), 1 for home (25 gigs unless it's being used as main storage) and 1 for swap | 02:56 |
| jmadero1 | Alias: same, been using Linux for 10+ years, this is making me laugh | 02:56 |
| jmadero1 | Alias: the weirdest thing is the terminal output - through nemo I see a mirror "copy" of the other directory, terminal shows just one file in the "Movies" folder | 02:57 |
| Alias | im on and off on linux so im having to constantly remember stuff | 02:57 |
| Alias | jmader01: Could it be possible that nemo may be messed up? | 02:57 |
| jmadero1 | coalie_koo_koo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot | 02:58 |
| loadedanvils | I'm having a bit of trouble decrypting my ecryptfs home partition and mounting it | 02:58 |
| jmadero1 | coalie_koo_koo: look at "manual partition" but I'd add another partition for home folder that is separate from root | 02:58 |
| hkrrsx | Hun9ryH1ppo, which services are messing with monitor mode ? | 02:58 |
| jmadero1 | ...and what does "messing with" mean? | 02:58 |
| jmadero1 | Hun9ryH1ppo: the better the info you provide, the better advise you will receive | 02:58 |
| loadedanvils | currently I have an encrypted home partition with ecryptfs (with the recorded passphrase) | 02:59 |
| loadedanvils | but I don't know how to put it in plac | 02:59 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: well if you're booted into Linux ... then you have to have a home folder "in place" already... | 03:00 |
| Alias | jmadero1: have you tried the device on a different computer? | 03:00 |
| jmadero1 | Alias: it's a networked hard drive, the RPi shows the same as the mounts on other systems | 03:00 |
| jmadero1 | mounted via NFS and Samba (on different machines) | 03:00 |
| jmadero1 | consistent across all of them | 03:00 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | hkrrsx: The following services are tampering with monitor mode on my USB Wireless adapter: | 03:00 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | 720NetworkManager | 03:00 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | 750avahi-daemon | 03:00 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | 751avahi-daemon | 03:00 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | 796wpa_supplicant | 03:00 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | 5223dhclient | 03:00 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | 5314dhclient | 03:00 |
| Alias | makes me wonder then if nemo isnt malfunctioned | 03:01 |
| loadedanvils | jmadero1, I mean my old home partition | 03:01 |
| SchrodingersScat | !pastbin | Hun9ryH1ppo | 03:01 |
| jmadero1 | ah now that makes sense | 03:01 |
| loadedanvils | I mean, my old home directory | 03:01 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: so you just want to mount it | 03:01 |
| loadedanvils | yeah, but it's encrypted | 03:01 |
| jmadero1 | sure one minute | 03:01 |
| loadedanvils | I can run the command to mount it to /tmp/suchandsuch | 03:01 |
| loadedanvils | but I can't put it on home | 03:02 |
| loadedanvils | don't know how | 03:02 |
| jmadero1 | oh - you want to replace your current home with this encrypted home? | 03:02 |
| hkrrsx | Hun9ryH1ppo, dhclient is your DHCP client, how your machine gets an IP address | 03:02 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | I'm sorry! I didn't mean to paste that much. Woops. | 03:02 |
| hkrrsx | Are you sure you want to disable such a service? | 03:02 |
| hkrrsx | Or even temporarily pause it | 03:02 |

| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: probably easier to just mount the home folder somewhere and then copy/paste what you want to your current one | 03:03 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | Gotcha. Sorry about that. | 03:03 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: vs. completely replacing your current home with this encrypted one | 03:03 |
| loadedanvils | it's on a different partition | 03:03 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: you can copy/paste across partitions.... | 03:03 |
| loadedanvils | the encrypted home is like 200 GB | 03:03 |
| loadedanvils | and the root mounted partition where ubuntu is installed is 40 GB | 03:04 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | hkrrsx: I'm going to PM you | 03:04 |
| hkrrsx | Ok | 03:04 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: okay so you have a 200+ gig encrypted partition....and then you have a 40 gig new home folder, and you want to basically replace the 40 gig with the 200 gig? | 03:04 |
| loadedanvils | yeah | 03:04 |
| khawar | hi new here | 03:05 |
| loadedanvils | well, the new one is on the same as root | 03:05 |
| loadedanvils | so, OS was installed on the 40 gb partition and I mounted /home separately | 03:05 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: okay someone else will have to help with the encryption stuff but you're going to have to add an entry in fstab to point your home partition to the 200 gig partition | 03:05 |
| Alias | Hello khawar | 03:05 |
| khawar | hi Alias | 03:06 |
| loadedanvils | jmadero1, I can decrypt it but it puts it in /tmp | 03:06 |
| loadedanvils | mounts it in /tmp | 03:06 |
| khawar | how are you, i am using IRC fist time so if i am doning somthing wrong plz don't mind | 03:06 |
| SchrodingersScat | !encrypted | loadedanvils read through this yet? | 03:07 |
| ubottu | loadedanvils read through this yet?: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory | 03:07 |
| jmadero1 | SchrodingersScat: his issue is that he already has home mounted but wants to replace it | 03:07 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: the entire partition is encrypted or just a folder on the partition? | 03:07 |
| sere | how can i change the sync location from internal to extern SD on a lg g3 | 03:08 |
| sere | music | 03:08 |
| OerHeks | sere, how is this related to ubuntu ? | 03:08 |
| jmadero1 | I had the same question | 03:08 |
| jmadero1 | ;) | 03:08 |
| jmadero1 | and what kind of request was that...literally no info | 03:08 |
| loadedanvils | jmadero1, the entire partition | 03:10 |
| sere | OerHeks: well considering ubuntu or banshee or rhythmbox doesnt have options to switch to sd ...so it relates alot | 03:10 |
| loadedanvils | I think. /home was mounted there | 03:10 |
| loadedanvils | and only /home, so I just want to decrypt, mount, and re-encrypt | 03:10 |
| loadedanvils | I don't want to move the data out of that partition | 03:11 |
| OerHeks | sere, so your lg g3 phone is running ubuntu? | 03:11 |
| * OerHeks misses something here | 03:12 | |
| daftykins | i think it's more about ubuntu media players throwing music on the phone in the given paths | 03:14 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: from a cursory inspection you're going to have to decrypt the drive, move the data to an uncrypted location, then reencrypt once you set it as mount point /home | 03:14 |
| jmadero1 | but I don't know if that's correct - just quickly looking through how tos | 03:14 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: can you automount the partition to a location now upon boot? | 03:14 |
| phix | hey, what's the command to make unity work correctly? | 03:15 |
| phix | I am trying to click on a window however it is not switching the keyboard focus so when I type it ends up in a different window | 03:16 |
| jmadero1 | loadedanvils: http://askubuntu.com/questions/103835/securely-automount-encrypted-drive-at-user-login maybe you can modify that to make it mount to /home ? | 03:16 |
| botamochi | Hello | 03:18 |
| === andrex|off is now known as andrex | ||
| jmadero1 | botamochi: hi - you can just ask your question | 03:21 |
| phix | hi botamochi | 03:21 |
| phix | botamochi: although even if you ask a question you will probably be igonred, like myself for example | 03:21 |
| jmadero1 | phix: that's entirely not useful - go somewhere else if that's your approach to the open source community | 03:22 |
| Alias | phix: what was your question i will try to help | 03:22 |
| phix | Although if you go out of topic scope they will jump on you straight away | 03:22 |
| jmadero1 | Alias: you're nicer than I am, I'd let him just whine himself out of the community | 03:22 |
| phix | jmadero1: That's not the way to operate buddy | 03:22 |
| Alias | i like to help but i dont want to see people be rude this is a fairly busy channel | 03:23 |
| jmadero1 | sure phix if you're new to the community - in IRC, ask your question...then wait awhile, then ask again | 03:23 |
| phix | Alias: true | 03:23 |
| jmadero1 | different people know different things and monitor the chat at different times | 03:23 |
| somsip | phix: define your problem better. Why is unity not working 'properly'? | 03:23 |
| phix | ok I will repaste by question if you like | 03:24 |
| phix | somsip: I don't know, I didn't write unity | 03:24 |
| jmadero1 | phix: and describe it properly - not just say "things aren't working" | 03:24 |
| jmadero1 | phix: please state the question again | 03:24 |
| phix | jmadero1: read the line after my first line | 03:24 |
| somsip | phix: last chance before I ignore you - what problem are you having with it? | 03:24 |
| sere_ | anyone know how to sync an lg g3 to an external sd in ubuntu..banshee or rhythmbox only syncs to internal and cant switch it | 03:24 |
| phix | = 13:16:28 < phix> I am trying to click on a window however it is not switching the keyboard focus so when I type it ends up in a different window | 03:24 |
| jmadero1 | phix: does alt+tab work | 03:25 |
| somsip | phix: what window? Has the app crashed? | 03:25 |
| phix | jmadero1: it does now | 03:25 |
| phix | somsip: wine | 03:25 |
| jmadero1 | and only wine is affected? | 03:25 |
| jmadero1 | (these are the kinds of details that are needed for you to get help) | 03:25 |
| phix | jmadero1: I had a similar issue with Android Studio, on a different computer though, but running same version of ubuntu | 03:26 |
| phix | jmadero1: on this computer only wine is affected, clicking on it doesn't change keyboard focus however ALT+TAB does | 03:27 |
| jmadero1 | phix: okay and any software in wine - or only particular software? | 03:27 |
| OerHeks | phix, so focus issue in wine? | 03:27 |
| phix | jmadero1: I have only experienced it with one app atm | 03:28 |
| phix | OerHeks: and Android Studio | 03:28 |
| jmadero1 | phix: would be nice to test another app | 03:28 |
| jmadero1 | to narrow the issue down | 03:28 |
| phix | ok, I will bring up another app and see if I am replicate it | 03:28 |
| jmadero1 | phix: sound familiar http://askubuntu.com/questions/299286/how-to-recover-focus-after-losing-it-while-using-wine | 03:29 |
| phix | jmadero1: it does it in Android Studio too, I double click on a file in the project explorer and it open the file in the right hand side editor. I then try to click on the editor but it doesn't move the keyboard focus accross | 03:30 |
| jmadero1 | phix: very well could be a bug.... | 03:31 |
| phix | jmadero1: How does one troubleshoot this or even report it>? as I am using android studio on another computer and it works correctly | 03:31 |
| jmadero1 | phix: using wine? | 03:31 |
| phix | jmadero1: the issue is also intermittent, but once it starts I need to restart android studio | 03:31 |
| OerHeks | maybe clicking 2 times for foxus on the window, then for pressing the editor? | 03:32 |
| phix | jmadero1: no, android studuio | 03:32 |
| jmadero1 | phix: well to report the issue, maybe you'd report against wine | 03:32 |
| jmadero1 | phix: to be perfectly honest if it's only affecting one piece of software....I doubt much time would be invested into fixing it | 03:32 |
| jmadero1 | that's just my guess though | 03:32 |
| phix | OerHeks: I have tried multiple clicks :) highlighting works but as soon as I type the focus goes into the project explorer windows instead of the editor window | 03:32 |
| phix | jmadero1: I have an entry for android studio in my .local something or other (where ever the launchers are kept). Would it have anything to do with that? or duplicate launchers with the same name or id or whatnot? | 03:33 |
| jmadero1 | phix: sounds unlikely to me but I don't know as I don't use android studio | 03:34 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | So, the new Ubuntu mobile phone doesn't act as a desktop/ hook up to a monitor as the early plans once said? | 03:34 |
| jmadero1 | phix: another thing you can try (possibly) is to test with another DE - just to narrow it down | 03:34 |
| phix | the Ubuntu phone is 2 years behind schedule, last time I looked | 03:34 |
| jmadero1 | phix: it's been released I believe | 03:34 |
| phix | jmadero1: 2 years later :) | 03:35 |
| jmadero1 | lol sure | 03:35 |
| phix | I might pick one up in the UK. | 03:35 |
| phix | They don't ship to AU yet right? | 03:35 |
| jmadero1 | dunno, I live in the uS | 03:36 |
| phix | hmmm, I could get it in the US too I suppose, any new versions planned on being released this year? | 03:36 |
| * jmadero1 has no clue, is happy with Android no plans on changing | 03:37 | |
| * phix also <3's android but is very dedicated to ubuntu | 03:37 | |

| OerHeks | TrFaSu, ah, kali is not supported here, | 06:02 |

| OerHeks | no wonder you cannot find zmap. | 06:02 |
| Kloz | Haha | 06:02 |
| Kloz | I was gonna suggest adding repos but your right Ubuntu only | 06:03 |
| TrFaSu | so i decided to build it | 06:03 |
| Kloz | Trfasu you need Ubuntu fresh install | 06:03 |
| TrFaSu | KLOZ: now i have to install a fresh ubuntu! errrr! :-( | 06:04 |

| djonvejn | Kloz: is that kubuntu desktop theme? | 06:30 |
| Kloz | Gtk isn't playing nice with plasma | 06:30 |

| sireebob | without whitelisting open ports, does anyone know how to prevent a computer from sending "port closed" packets (whatever they are) to a remote computer? maybe something in the iptables output chain to block those messages? | 06:31 |

| djonvejn | tnx Kloz | 06:33 |
| djonvejn | do i need to restart to make it go in full effect | 06:34 |

| Kloz | Here's the command | 06:35 |
| Kloz | sudo apt-get install plasma-theme-oxygen oxygen-molecule \ gtk2-engines-oxygen gtk3-engines-oxygen | 06:35 |

| bojan | How to restrict users not to create any directories without my permission and also not removing any directories without my permission | 06:38 |
| Kloz | You might need to fiddle with settings, oxygen and gtk2 and gtk3 djonvejn | 06:39 |
| Ben64 | bojan: don't even need acl for that, just make yourself the owner and set the permissions to something like 755 | 06:39 |
| djonvejn | Kloz: i will go rambo style, console destkop only :p | 06:40 |
| djonvejn | moment | 06:40 |
| bojan | Ben64:No,i have applied acl for the directories and files inside that depends on the user previliges | 06:40 |

| === Cybert1nus is now known as Cybertinus | ||

| lotuspsychje | Sramelyor3301: ask your friends to switch also | 06:53 |
| Artemis3 | bojan, that needs 775. 770 the users can not read or enter the directory | 06:53 |
| bojan | somsip:yes by giving permission to main directories as 770 i can restrict them not to delete any folder | 06:53 |
| bojan | Artemis3:They can | 06:53 |
| Ben64 | 770 = owner and group can read,write,execute. others can't do anything | 06:54 |
| somsip | bojan: then g+s for the directory so anything created in there can be read/write by them. You will have to create unchangeable dirs a | 06:54 |
| Artemis3 | unless your users belong to the group, they can't do nothing | 06:54 |
| Artemis3 | you could just make a group and have permission 750 or 755 | 06:55 |
| bojan | Artemis3:So far the permission for main directory is 770 and the users can read and write the files and directories on the acl permission i applied for the files inside the directories | 06:55 |

| bojan | Artemis3:Root | 06:56 |
| Artemis3 | bojan, and the group? | 06:56 |
| bojan | Artemis3:root | 06:56 |
| Artemis3 | so they should not be able to even see the content or cd into it if they are not root:root | 06:57 |
| Artemis3 | or user:root | 06:57 |
| Artemis3 | i think the problem could be elsewhere | 06:57 |
| Artemis3 | what filesystem is this bojan ? | 06:58 |
| bojan | Artemis3:Wat file system means?? | 06:58 |
| bojan | Artemis3:I will tell u clearly.I have a bunch of main directories which all permissions are 770 | 06:59 |
| Artemis3 | these numbers mean: User Group Other | 07:00 |
| Artemis3 | You giving full rights to the User (root) and Group (root) but zero to Others | 07:01 |
| Kloz | 1 | 07:03 |
| Artemis3 | 1 means eXecute (or browse directory) 2 means write, and 4 means read, you sum and get the number. | 07:05 |

| bekks | cluelessperson: And did you add your public client key to that file? | 11:36 |
| cluelessperson | then I have /etc/ssh/authorized_keys/zachary/id_rsa.pub | 11:36 |
| cluelessperson | bekks, I tried /etc/ssh_authorized_keys/zachary before, but didn't work | 11:37 |
| bekks | cluelessperson: You copied id_rsa.pub to /etc/ssh_authorized_keys/zachary (the file)? | 11:37 |
| cluelessperson | bekks, I originally made /etc/ssh/authorized_keys/zachary | 11:38 |
| cluelessperson | bekks, that didn't work, so I moved to /zachary/id_rsa.pub | 11:38 |
| bekks | cluelessperson: /etc/ssh/authorized_keys/zachary/id_rsa.pub will not work, since thats not configured the sshd config. | 11:39 |

| Paradisee | im using gparted actually cus i have to install something else | 14:20 |
| OerHeks | ditto, this guide should have it all http://www.gizmojunkee.com/2013/10/setup-transmission-on-ubuntu-12-04-server/ | 14:20 |
| BluesKaj | Paradisee, setting up a separate / partition? , if so 15-16G should be plenty | 14:21 |
| Guest36793 | nope /names | 14:21 |
| Guest36793 | doesn't help | 14:21 |
| Guest36793 | much | 14:21 |

| psyrus | ive been struggling with this for 3 days now almost , i can only run live cds on my computer that hard drive I have is a $400drive | 14:41 |

| psyrus | can someone help me please | 14:42 |
| Staberinde | sorry psyrus what was the error again? | 14:42 |
| psyrus | (by the way I originally had windows 10 technical preview) | 14:42 |
| psyrus | okay it keeps saying it cant find " /boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod " | 14:43 |
| psyrus | Staberinde: what IS that ? | 14:43 |
| psyrus | Staberinde: is this have something to do with the fact that I had windows 10 technical preview on here before ? | 14:43 |
| psyrus | Staberinde: do you think i need to install windows 10 back on here and THEN install linux perhaps? I'm trying to avoid putting windows baack on my computer though | 14:44 |
| Staberinde | Not sure, i've never used anything win10 based | 14:44 |
| Staberinde | have you tried reinstalling GRUB? | 14:44 |
| psyrus | Staberinde: what is this "normal.mod" that it cant find and why isn't it getting put on my machine when I install | 14:44 |
| psyrus | Staberinde: no how do i do that again? | 14:44 |
| somsip | psyrus: http://is.gd/6o2VKx http://is.gd/9dLakI | 14:45 |

| jonascj | Please don't tell me to upgrade or the like, if you don't like the question then simply do not answer it: I am on Ubuntu 12.10 and I need G++ 4.8. Installin git was pretty easy via a PPA, but it wrecked havoc on my system. Basic utilities like Evince, VIM and NetworkManager were uninstalled etc. I restored my system from backup, but now I want to find out if that is inevitable. | 14:46 |
| cfhowlett | jonascj, won't tell you to reinstall. will tell 12.10 is no longer supported here or anywhere else. | 14:46 |
| Staberinde | @Parsalin: Yes, i've had this problem with chrome recently | 14:46 |

| ParSalian | looks lke theyve broken something | 14:47 |
| psyrus | somsip: thankyou!!! | 14:47 |
| Staberinde | Parsalin, I don't suppose you get any problem with chrome fucking up your graphics driver on some random youtube pages? | 14:47 |
| somsip | psyrus: so the EFI thing helped? | 14:47 |
| MonkeyDust | jonascj you can use what's already installed, but not install/upgrade anything | 14:47 |
| Staberinde | ppsyrus no worries | 14:47 |
| somsip | psyrus: cool - go for it | 14:47 |
| ParSalian | not yet | 14:47 |
| OerHeks | ParSalian, file a bug within google-chrome itself | 14:47 |
| jonascj | cfhowlett: I believe that falls under the category of "the like" :P Someone who does not see him/her self as a supporter, but just a fellow ubuntu user might know (and be kind enough to tell me) that upgrading the build tools also upgrades cstdlib.so or whatever, and that it is bound to give problems :) | 14:48 |
| ParSalian | yep on it, just cheching if it was other prob;em | 14:48 |
| pbx | jonascj, regardless if you want help you need to provide a lot more detail | 14:49 |
| pbx | jonascj, like what PPA and package it was | 14:49 |
| pbx | jonascj, like details of the havoc as specifically as you can determine | 14:50 |
| pbx | jonascj, like how you determined things were uninstalled (versus just broken) and what they were | 14:50 |
| pbx | jonascj, and whether you have investigated or tried other ways to get that version of g++ on your system | 14:51 |
| ioria | jonascj, i think you should build it from source | 14:52 |
| OerHeks | pbx, jonascj as 12.10 is unsupported, install 14.04 with gcc 4,8,2 | 14:52 |
| jonascj | pbx: I have to admit before restoring from backup I only found that "vim" in the terminal would no longer open VIM. It might not have been uninstalled, but just misconfigured in some way (a symlink gone etc.) | 14:52 |
| jonascj | ioria: that is certainly an option, then I'll have to learn about all those standard libraries I would need alongside the compiler. | 14:53 |
| jonascj | I might just run a new Ubuntu version in a VM and be done with it. I will be doing a system upgrade soon anyway, but not fast enough to solve my g++ 4.9 need right now :) | 14:54 |
| jonascj | Thank you for listening to this unsupported question and giving some feedback! | 14:56 |
| ioria | -^_^ - | 14:57 |
| nightr00t | leave #ubuntu | 14:57 |
| cfhowlett | jonascj, at the risk of being presumptuous, 12.04 and 14.04 are LTS and supported | 14:57 |
| jonascj | cfhowlett: but 12.10 is not :) | 14:58 |
| jonascj | which I was stupid enough to opt for back in the day | 14:58 |
| pavan | hi | 14:58 |
| jonascj | of course a lot applies to 12.10 which applies to 12.04 | 14:58 |
| pavan | am new to backbox | 14:58 |
| cfhowlett | jonascj, well, I would never call you stupid ... | 14:58 |

| ioria | Staberinde, apt-get update ? | 15:04 |
| === spideyman is now known as Guest34566 | ||
| Staberinde | yup, it gives me the error when i run apt-get update | 15:05 |
| achun | hello, this is a test | 15:07 |
| OerHeks | Staberinde, run apt-get update again and show us the output please | 15:07 |
| newby_mcnewb | completely new to linux -- i'm trying to understand the concept of distros and desktop environments. "ubuntu" has many distros, xubuntu, lubuntu, edubuntu etc. they have different desktop environments unity, lxde etc. some distros don't even have a desktop environment... like ubuntu server. am i correct so far? | 15:07 |
| OerHeks | !test | achun | 15:07 |
| ubottu | achun: Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3... ( by the way, remember that you can use /join #test ) | 15:07 |
| cfhowlett | !flavors | newby_mcnewb | 15:07 |
| ubottu | newby_mcnewb: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. | 15:07 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, technically, there is one ubuntu "distro" just different flavors | 15:08 |
| ioria | Staberinde, you status file in /var/lib/dpks g could be damaged but i don'tget why | 15:08 |
| newby_mcnewb | cfhowlett: okay so fine, flavors. the different flavors have completely different applications installed by default? we're getting to my question in a second. | 15:08 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, true, different default apps for different flavors | 15:09 |
| OerHeks | ioria, we cannot make that up without full upgrade log | 15:09 |
| ioria | right | 15:09 |
| newby_mcnewb | cfhowlett: okay fine. so my question is what is the most stripped down version of the ubuntu distro? the different flavors just seem to be various desktop environments and apps... but can one just get "ubuntu" in command line? | 15:10 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, server is the most stripped down and command line only. | 15:10 |
| OerHeks | newby_mcnewb, that would be ubuntu-server. | 15:10 |
| newby_mcnewb | so server, though, would come with something like a LAMP stack by default? or no. | 15:10 |
| OerHeks | or as a basis the minimal iso | 15:10 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, not by default. | 15:11 |
| newby_mcnewb | ahhh interesting. | 15:11 |
| genii | Staberinde: If the lists are corrupt, this might do: sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* ..and then do again sudo apt-get update | 15:11 |
| cowbacon | newby_mcnewb: iirc you get to choose at the end of the installation what you want to include in the server version, where lamp is one of the choices | 15:11 |
| newby_mcnewb | okay now here's the real question i'm getting at. i understand that one can use a "package manager" to basically do all things. i saw some guide that was like, essentially, do "apt-get install lubuntu-desktop" ... so is my "ubuntu" becoming "lubuntu" at that point? is it just the desktop environment? is it all the apps? | 15:12 |
| newby_mcnewb | its confusing to me. | 15:12 |
| newby_mcnewb | to wrap my head around | 15:12 |
| tgm4883 | newby_mcnewb: yes, that would make it lubuntu | 15:12 |
| cowbacon | newby_mcnewb: lubuntu-desktop should include all apps thats included in the lubuntu install | 15:12 |
| OerHeks | ... that would make it lubuntu, when you choose lubuntu at login as desktopenvironment | 15:13 |
| cowbacon | probably not branding though, ie it says lubuntu at startup | 15:13 |
| tgm4883 | newby_mcnewb: if that was your end goal, you should just install from lubuntu ISO though | 15:13 |
| tgm4883 | cowbacon: it would get that too | 15:13 |
| newby_mcnewb | so can someone JUST get ubuntu server, and then tack on the Xubuntu desktop enfironment? | 15:13 |
| cowbacon | tgm4883: ah kk | 15:13 |
| newby_mcnewb | without apps | 15:13 |
| cowbacon | newby_mcnewb: yes, you can do that even with lubntu, ubuntu etc etc | 15:13 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, yes. sudo apt-get install xfce4 would add ONLY the DE --- NOT the apps | 15:13 |
| tgm4883 | newby_mcnewb: you mean XFCE | 15:14 |
| mrpizzaface | hey can anyone help with me being unable to write to a flashdrive that i have used gparted to formatt to EXT4 | 15:14 |
| tgm4883 | newby_mcnewb: it's important to note that would only install XFCE though, not any of the theming or default settings either | 15:14 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, if that's your end goal, you might find it more useful to start with xubuntu and add the server packages, e.. lamp | 15:14 |
| newby_mcnewb | tgm4883: can you elavorate a bit more on that | 15:14 |
| tgm4883 | newby_mcnewb: on what? | 15:15 |
| newby_mcnewb | cfhowlett: i don't have much of an "end goal" beyond just trying to understand it all. | 15:15 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, no "eye candy" | 15:15 |
| ditto | newby_mcnewb: yes and no your ubuntu would become lubuntu but at the same time it will not, don't quote me on this but I think you should look at it as the lubuntu window manager in ubuntu unless you change the package system as well | 15:15 |
| newby_mcnewb | tgm4883: so installing xfce doesn't put make your desktop look like xubuntu, but installing xubuntu-desktop does? but then it comes with all the apps. | 15:15 |
| tgm4883 | ditto: that's completely false. Assuming you are responding to him asking about lubuntu-desktop | 15:16 |
| cowbacon | newby_mcnewb: lets see it like this: in linux your GUI is just another app running ontop of linux, its not built in like in windows. so changing your GUI, or DE as its called, is as easy as typing a command and changing at the login screen | 15:16 |
| tgm4883 | newby_mcnewb: correct. It would look like default XFCE | 15:16 |
| newby_mcnewb | okay i guess i'm not exactly understanding then what makes "lubuntu" lubuntu. | 15:17 |
| Pici | newby_mcnewb: lubuntu comes with lxde by default. | 15:17 |
| Pici | !flavors | 15:18 |
| ubottu | !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. | 15:18 |
| cowbacon | newby_mcnewb: what makes lubuntu lubuntu is branding, configs, default apps. all configured for you | 15:18 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, can we make this > practical and < theoretical? install server. add a DE. observe the changes | 15:18 |
| newby_mcnewb | its strange to me to think that i could download the regular full ubuntu desktop, apt-get and all of a sudden it's not ubuntu desktop anymore, it's lubuntu. but also if i, instead, install the LXDE(?) environment on my ubuntu, that .... am i now in lubuntu? | 15:18 |
| ditto | tgm4883: yes, I was trying to answer it but like I wrote I hope they don't quote me word for word but that is what I think,. However, I could/can be wrong considering I haven't used a desktop manager in years. | 15:18 |
| tgm4883 | newby_mcnewb: lubuntu is made up of a set of applications picked by the lubuntu team, settings created by the lubuntu team, and likely a theme created by the lubuntu team | 15:18 |
| OerHeks | newby_mcnewb, no problem to have 2 or 3 desktops on 1 system, you choose one @ login | 15:18 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, not quite. lxde is ONLY the DE. lubuntu-desktop is the full meal deal. | 15:18 |
| newby_mcnewb | okay | 15:19 |
| tgm4883 | ditto: no offense, but you shouldn't just guess at things | 15:19 |
| genii | newby_mcnewb: lubuntu-desktop differs from lxde in that lxde is just the desktop without any apps. lubuntu-desktop ( and all *buntu-desktop packages) install a selection of applications which the team for that distribution have chosen to be the defaults for that flavour | 15:19 |
| newby_mcnewb | i think i understand it, i have a better idea now what defines "lubuntu" and not just say.... "edubuntu with lxde" | 15:19 |
| ditto | tgm4883: you're right and no offense taken, I shouldn't have answered it unless I was certain | 15:19 |
| ioria | ! apt-show-versions | 15:20 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, if you want to experiment without risk, install virtualbox, add ubuntu to virtualbox then add/subtract as you choose from the virtual ubuntu | 15:20 |
| newby_mcnewb | cfhowlett: that's exactly what i've done but what i did was install lubuntu and xubuntu and thought to myself once i saw that article... can i just turn one into another? why do i even bother installing two VMs | 15:21 |
| === sins-_k is now known as sins- | ||
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, you're on the right track. | 15:21 |
| PCatinean | Hey guys, is there a way in which I can capture the ftp upload event and trigger something on the system? | 15:21 |
| cowbacon | newby_mcnewb: yes you can turn them into the other. thats the great thing about linux. you can have all DEs installed at the same time if you want. and then just choose the one you want when you login | 15:21 |
| PCatinean | As in somebody uploads something to ftp and that action triggers a python script or bash script? or some sort of command? | 15:22 |
| newby_mcnewb | i picked xubuntu and lubuntu because they were "lighter weight" but i wasn't even sure what that meant. they had lower system requirements... but are those requirements because of some core features or the DE. it sounds like the DE. | 15:22 |
| cowbacon | its the DE, ubuntu server is quite low req when it comes to resources | 15:22 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, lxde and xfce4 are practically identical in terms of load requirements. | 15:22 |
| OerHeks | !info iwatch | 15:23 |
| ubottu | iwatch (source: iwatch): realtime filesystem monitoring program using inotify. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.2-3 (utopic), package size 16 kB, installed size 90 kB | 15:23 |
| newby_mcnewb | right so i'm considering, now, getting ubuntu server and then really learning by building it up and playing around with it. i couldnt care less if libre office is installed by default. i'm just playing with it, not wordprocessing on it. | 15:23 |
| Staberinde | OerHeks, genii unfortunatly that didnt work output is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10750831/ | 15:23 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, sounds like a plan | 15:24 |
| cowbacon | newby_mcnewb: sounds like a fun project. you're going to be missing a lot of configs etc that you need to set yourself though so be prepared to google a lot | 15:24 |
| newby_mcnewb | cfhowlett: i think i prefer xfce but, again, i wasn't really sure why i preferred it. or whether i was even looking at "xfce" itself... it sounds like i was looking at a customized xfce with defaults picked by the "xubuntu team" | 15:25 |
| cowbacon | newby_mcnewb: i'd recommend reading the arch linux beginner guide if you wanna go from cli into gui by yourself. as that guide is made for exactly that (including the "recommended reading" etc after the beginner guide) | 15:25 |
| newby_mcnewb | ill look for it now, thanks cowbacon | 15:25 |
| newby_mcnewb | and everyone else too. thanks for replying and helping me understand it better. | 15:26 |
| newby_mcnewb | i appreciate it sincerely. | 15:26 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, could be. but here's the cool thing: command line fu! sudo apt-get install xfce4 (de only) sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop (full meal deal) sudo apt-get purge && sudo apt-get autoremove will remove the DE and any no longer needed packages. enjoy. | 15:26 |
| mrpizzaface | hey can anyone help with me being unable to write to a flash drive that i have used Gparted to format it to EXT4? | 15:26 |
| OerHeks | cowbacon, arch beginners guide ? that will give him issues, as ubuntu handle things differently. | 15:26 |
| cowbacon | mrpizzaface: you need to provide more information. what error messages, *Why* doesnt it work? etc | 15:27 |
| cfhowlett | newby_mcnewb, sudo apt-get purge PACKAGENAMEHERE | 15:27 |
| k1l | newby_mcnewb: cowbacon ubuntu uses very different setup (packages, no root account,...) than arch. | 15:27 |
| newby_mcnewb | i think i clearly need to look more into the concept of package managers | 15:27 |
| mrpizzaface | cowbacon, i get no error messages when i open Caja and navigate to the drive i am unable to create a folder and if i try to move anything into the flashdrive i get a message that says "______ cannot be copied because you do not have permissions to create it in the destination." | 15:28 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, hello again! :) | 15:29 |
| cowbacon | k1l: sure, but it provides plenty of information on how you get a functional system by configuring it yourself. with codecs, sound, video drivers, small things as changing console locale etc etc | 15:29 |
| cowbacon | mrpizzaface: tried as root? | 15:29 |
| cowbacon | or sudo | 15:29 |
| k1l | mrpizzaface: what ubuntu are you on exactly? | 15:29 |
| mrpizzaface | cowbacon, havent im pretty sure it will work under root but i would like to konw why gparted has fucked up a brand new flashdrive | 15:30 |
| OerHeks | cowbacon, suggest pages like https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal not arch please | 15:30 |
| deadmund | Is kubuntu it's own project separate (a fork) from regular ubuntu? I noticed the domain name is different (even the tld) and the themeing and branding is completely different. | 15:30 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, hey! | 15:31 |
| cfhowlett | deadmund, it is an official canoncial distro | 15:31 |
| k1l | deadmund: its an official flavour. it shares lots of packages and they are hosted on the official servers | 15:31 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, I wasn't able to figure out that udev rule, lol.. | 15:31 |
| OerHeks | deadmund, no, kubuntu if afull flavor of ubuntu, but KDE looks beautifull indeed | 15:31 |
| cfhowlett | deadmund, although no longer financed by canonical ... go figure. | 15:31 |
| fragment137 | but I at least have a method for mounting that volume now. | 15:31 |
| mrpizzaface | k1l, ubuntu 14.04 with basicly a mate conversion laid overtop | 15:31 |
| k1l | deadmund: the project domain is different because it started as another project. | 15:31 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, ah, yeah I was looking into it last night. udev uses a name matching system that gets pretty complicated | 15:32 |
| k1l | mrpizzaface: so a mate ppa or mint directly? | 15:32 |
| deadmund | So it has separate repos. What is the benefit of using kubuntu vs. installing ubuntu and then installing kubuntu-desktop from the repos? | 15:32 |
| newby_mcnewb | sorry.... one last question everyone. even though i might be on lubuntu or xubuntu or whatever-buntu with whatever DE.... as a beginner googling stuff, i should basically be looking for "how to XYZ in ubuntu"? more or less? like i should really have to specify lubuntu, anything ubuntu will probably work unless it's DE or app specific? | 15:32 |
| k1l | deadmund: it has _not_ different repos | 15:32 |
| mrpizzaface | k1l a mate ppa to install the mate DE | 15:32 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, I mean, it's not a -huge- hassle for me to rename it... and I suppose I could just make a small bash script to run | 15:32 |
| k1l | mrpizzaface: ok, so make sure the caja mounts the drive correctly with gvfs | 15:32 |
| newby_mcnewb | shouldnt* | 15:32 |
| k1l | mrpizzaface: seems it doesnt mount it with proper user rights | 15:33 |
| deadmund | k1l: You said "it shares a lot of packages" implying there are some packages it does not share, implying the repos are different ? I'm confused. | 15:33 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, oh yeah. heck, it might even work if you put that command in the root crontab and ran it as @reboot | 15:33 |
| fragment137 | Perhaps. | 15:33 |
| k1l | deadmund: yes, like the gnome packages that are the basis for unity :) | 15:33 |
| halfburnttoast | udev has to run pretty early in the boot process, so it might work out | 15:33 |
| deadmund | newby_mcnewb: You're correct 95% of the time. The DE does not matter at all. | 15:33 |
| fragment137 | I have to run a dmraid discovery first, then rename and mount. | 15:33 |
| deadmund | newby_mcnewb: I've found that even debian or arch wiki to be very helpful for ubuntu things. But you sometimes have to translate slightly what they're talking about. | 15:33 |
| goeranh | wich exact command do i have to use to amrk an jar file as executeable? | 15:34 |
| k1l | deadmund: ubuntu repos host 100% packages. kubuntu doesnt use all of them because a lot are gnome packages. got it? | 15:34 |
| tgm4883 | cfhowlett: to be fair, none of the other flavors are financed by canonical either (well, ubuntu server likely is, but that is a bit special) | 15:34 |
| goeranh | *mark | 15:34 |
| deadmund | k1l: I mean, it sounds like there are two different repos with a lot of overlap? | 15:34 |
| k1l | deadmund: no | 15:34 |
| k1l | deadmund: its all just one repo. | 15:34 |
| deadmund | k1l: kubuntu has different things installed? | 15:34 |
| k1l | deadmund: no | 15:34 |
| k1l | deadmund: stop right here. | 15:35 |
| OerHeks | goeranh, chmod +x /path/to/.jar | 15:35 |
| goeranh | ty | 15:35 |
| tgm4883 | !enter | 15:35 |
| * deadmund cries | 15:35 | |
| mrpizzaface | k1l, whenever i remount the drive the same thing happens so dose that mean that it isnt mounting correctly ? (im not too technically savvy in ubuntu) | 15:35 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, you don't happen to know much about fglrx drivers do you? :P | 15:35 |
| k1l | its just that kubuntu installes different packages thatn the plain ubuntu sinct the plain ubuntu doesnt install kde packages. what makes sense since its not using kde. although they are all in the official repo | 15:35 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, not really, that's AMD right? | 15:36 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, yup | 15:36 |
| k1l | mrpizzaface: see the mounts options used when typing "mount" into the terminal | 15:36 |
| deadmund | k1l: OH, I see. Thank you :) | 15:36 |
| halfburnttoast | ah, I'm on intel integrated myself, never messed around with proprietary drivers | 15:36 |
| halfburnttoast | just used the builtins | 15:36 |
| fragment137 | Yea I'm just experimenting with getting Ubuntu up to par with what I used Windows for (For the most part anyway... I realize I'll still need windows for certain things) | 15:37 |
| k1l | deadmund: but you can convert a ubuntu into kubuntu easily when installing "kubuntu-desktop" package | 15:37 |
| k1l | deadmund: its just the setup on the install cd. the packages are all from one repo | 15:37 |
| deadmund | k1l: yes, thank you :) | 15:37 |
| fragment137 | Just sucks cause now I won't have opengl -.- | 15:38 |
| genii | Staberinde: So in this case we know now the lists are OK. The next thing is the status file, but that one is tricky, you can't just delete it or so on. What says the result of: ls /var/lib/dpkg/statu* (please use pastebin) | 15:38 |
| mrpizzaface | k1l, this is all the options i get concering /dev/sdd1 "the drive in question" /dev/sdd1 on /media/gaming/e6c56bec-4e8b-4533-a3cb-28a4e21880ad type ext4 (rw,nodev,nosuid,uhelper=udisks2) | 15:38 |
| deadmund | You used to choose an image. And the different images were basically just different DE's I guess now I have to go to kubuntu.org (or .net or whatever) and grab that image. | 15:38 |
| cfhowlett | deadmund, do you have ubuntu installed at present? | 15:38 |
| newby_mcnewb | okay thanks again everyone. have a good day. | 15:39 |
| k1l | !kubuntu | deadmund | 15:39 |
| ubottu | deadmund: Kubuntu is the Ubuntu flavour using KDE Software and the KDE Plasma Workspaces. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support join #kubuntu - See also !kde | 15:39 |
| deadmund | k1l: Cause I know that installing one (e.g. unity) and then trying to switch to KDE is a pain because we have to figure out all of what unity encompassed and should be removed. | 15:39 |
| deadmund | cfhowlett: No. I am getting a new machine (in the mail). I don't even have it yet. | 15:39 |
| k1l | deadmund: nope | 15:39 |
| halfburnttoast | fragment137, well, as for the udev thing, I think it will require editing one of the files in /lib/udev/rules.d/ | 15:39 |
| k1l | deadmund: that is not an issue | 15:39 |
| deadmund | cfhowlett: But on some other machines I'm running mint | 15:39 |
| deadmund | k1l: How do you mean? | 15:39 |
| k1l | its not an issue | 15:39 |
| mrpizzaface | fragment137, i know a little bit on fglrx whats up ? | 15:39 |
| halfburnttoast | /lib/udev/rules.d/55-dm.rules manages the mapper naming | 15:40 |
| Staberinde | genii, I find a status and a status-old: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10750972/ | 15:40 |
| deadmund | k1l: care to elaborate on that a bit? | 15:40 |
| tgm4883 | deadmund: its' pretty easy to switch the DE | 15:40 |
| BluesKaj | deadmund, just install Kubuntu instead, don't muck about with ubuntu if you want kde | 15:40 |
| halfburnttoast | I'm curious now, heh. I'll keep looking into it | 15:40 |
| tgm4883 | deadmund: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 15:40 |
| k1l | what you think is an issue is not an issue. switching dekstops works. | 15:40 |
| fragment137 | halfburnttoast, Thanks man I'll look into that | 15:40 |
| tgm4883 | deadmund: but yes, if you want to end up with Kubuntu, why not install kubuntu first? | 15:40 |
| fragment137 | mrpizzaface, Welp, I tried installing fglrx, and I rebooted to a blank purple screen. | 15:41 |
| k1l | deadmund: of course it doesnt work if you use mint, because mint fiddles with the repos to get their stuff installed. but for official ubuntu it works | 15:41 |
| deadmund | BluesKaj: There is literally no difference besides what is installed by default? | 15:41 |
| deadmund | tgm4883: Yes I will just install kubuntu :) | 15:41 |
| fragment137 | mrpizzaface, Tried to reinstall xorg, but it failed miserably, so I just reinstalled ubuntu from a livecd, lol | 15:41 |
| === soee__ is now known as soee | ||
| mrpizzaface | fragment137, from the Additional Drivers Screen or by building the packages from AMD's website ? | 15:41 |
| deadmund | k1l: Hey now! Don't you speak ill of my precious mint :P | 15:41 |
| fragment137 | mrpizzaface, to be honest, I believe I tried from the website | 15:41 |
| k1l | deadmund: dont scale from mint to ubuntu. | 15:42 |
| BluesKaj | deadmund, did you order a system 76 computer with ubuntu preinstalled ? | 15:42 |
| genii | Staberinde: So in this case, move the current status to status-backup with: sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/status /var/lib/dpkg/status-backup ..then we try to use the status-old instead: sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/status-old /var/lib/dpkg/status .... then: sudo sync ...then try again the sudo apt-get update | 15:42 |
| deadmund | BluesKaj: No. I bought a refurbished Thinkpad T420s. I think it has win7 pre-installed but I don't care. I'm going to install Ubuntu immediately. | 15:42 |
| deadmund | BluesKaj: Well, I might wait for 15.04 to land. Then I'll install. | 15:43 |
| mrpizzaface | fragment137, personally i have alot better luck by searching in the dash "Additional Drivers" and installing fglrx-updates but it might not appear for you | 15:43 |
| fragment137 | no I don't see it | 15:43 |
| BluesKaj | deadmund, install Kubuntu if you want KDE , not ubuntu..thgere is a difference and Kubuntu will install faster | 15:43 |
| pzykotic | Does anyone know the difference between ATI drivers in fglrx-updates and fglrx. I assume one is newer but can't ascertain which one. | 15:43 |
| fragment137 | oh, wait | 15:43 |
| deadmund | BluesKaj: I'm going to use a separate /home and /root so that when new versions come out I can "fresh install" them | 15:43 |
| deadmund | BluesKaj: I agree. I am curious though. Besides the default installed packages, what is the difference (if any) between ubuntu and kubuntu ? | 15:44 |
| zykotick9 | pzykotic: nice nick ;) | 15:44 |
| cfhowlett | deadmund, eyecandy = look and feel | 15:44 |
| fragment137_ | mrpizzaface, it's searching for additional drivers now. Taking a long time though | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | deadmund, yeah well that's a given if you switch OSs alot , but 15.04 is up and working , but it's only meant for the adventurous and not the workplace | 15:45 |
| deadmund | cfhowlett: mmmm I disagree. eyecandy is like a subset of look and feel | 15:45 |
| fragment137_ | mrpizzaface, So you would recommend fglrx-updates? | 15:45 |
| deadmund | BluesKaj: It's in beta, so if I install it now, when it lands as a full release there will be an upgrade path for me? | 15:45 |
| deadmund | BluesKaj: oh, actually, I said that I'd have a separate /root, so I can just install 15.04 release when it comes out | 15:46 |
| zykotick9 | !final | deadmund | 15:46 |
| ubottu | deadmund: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Vivid and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 15.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. | 15:46 |
| BluesKaj | deadmund, yes of course | 15:46 |
| mrpizzaface | fragment137_, fglrx-updates is basicly amd's 13.04 AMDCCLE control center and driver so i'd reccommend it BUT if you want the lastest version i have a guide to install them | 15:46 |
| pzykotic | lol, I didn't notice someone else asked the exact same question | 15:46 |
| mrpizzaface | pzykotic, from what i have seen fglrx-updates are AMD's propitary drivers and FGLRX is well... just FGLRX it is just the diffrence in having the AMD Catalyst control center to me | 15:47 |
| pzykotic | mrpizzaface: Yeah I've never used ATI/AMD drivers before. I'm an NVidia guy but XOrg keeps spazzing out with Nouveaou so I popped my ATI card in till I can spend time figuring out why it's not working | 15:49 |
| Staberinde | genii: so it seems to have the same problem even when i swap out status for status-old. Is status a binary file or a text file. if it's a binary how wouldI go about debugging it? | 15:49 |
| dalebert_ | I'm looking for a way to _quicky_ copy about 50 GB of files from my old system to my new one on my home (internal) network. I have them connected via SSH but it's going to take about 5 hours. 1 GB an hour? Seems slow. | 15:51 |
| ioria | ! info apt-show-versions | 15:51 |
| deadmund | dalebert_: Do you mean you're using scp ? | 15:52 |
| mrpizzaface | pzykotic, meh dont even bother with fglrx drivers if you plan on running a game in the next centuary the default ubuntu driver is personally one of the best | 15:52 |
| ioria | !info apt-show-versions | 15:52 |
| ubottu | apt-show-versions (source: apt-show-versions): lists available package versions with distribution. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.22.4 (utopic), package size 31 kB, installed size 169 kB | 15:52 |
| pzykotic | mrpizzaface: Yeah I'm aware how crappy they are - I wish I had time to figure out why nouveaou keeps causing Ubuntu to lock up | 15:53 |
| ioria | Staberinde, did you install apt-show-versions ? | 15:53 |
| genii | Staberinde: It's a text file which contains stanzas or sections describing the packages which have been installed or uninstalled, descriptions of them and their current statuses. Unfortunately it cannot easily be re-created and it's quite large to manually go through and examine. | 15:53 |
| Voyage | how to reconfigure all apps. I guess there are alot of issues happeneing in my pc. display goes of or flickers. internet goes of some times. | 15:53 |
| Voyage | I have to reboot. | 15:54 |
| fragment137 | mrpizzaface, I was unable to apply fglrx. However what I'm trying to find out is why vmware is telling me there's no 3d acceleration support? | 15:54 |
| Voyage | 2-. how to just restart x / kde while not rebooting? I need some keys? | 15:54 |
| deadmund | Voyage: sudo pkill Xorg | 15:54 |
| deadmund | Voyage: And it should bring itself back up | 15:54 |
| fragment137 | Meh. I'll just leave it for now | 15:54 |
| Voyage | deadmund, I need some keys | 15:54 |
| fragment137 | I'm sure it'll function properly, lol | 15:54 |
| deadmund | Voyage: keys? alt + sysrq + k I think? | 15:55 |
| Voyage | ok | 15:55 |
| Voyage | whats sysrq | 15:55 |
| genii | Voyage: On most systems sysreq key is also the print screen key | 15:55 |
| Staberinde | ioria: apt-show-versions gives me the same error when I run it http://paste.ubuntu.com/10751094/ | 15:56 |
| dalebert_ | I'm just looking to get it done quiker than 5 hours. It doesn't have to be secure | 15:56 |
| ioria | Staberinde, can you unistall it? | 15:56 |
| pzykotic | Voyage: it's the kernel 'magic button' | 15:56 |
| Voyage | genii, so alt + sysrq + k will restart kde? | 15:56 |
| mrpizzaface | fragment137, id reccommend telling vmware its high and going about your day the default driver has its quirks but if you know what amd card your running you can use http://bit.ly/1GDPrby to install the correct amd driver if you REALLY want it | 15:56 |
| deadmund | Voyage: http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/uncyclopedia/images/8/86/SysRq-locatedhere.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20071026022316 | 15:56 |

| Voyage | how to reconfigure all apps. I guess there are alot of issues happeneing in my pc. display goes of or flickers. internet goes of some times. | 15:57 |
| dhrosa | wait, nevermind | 15:57 |
| deadmund | dhrosa: There is a GUI called "startup applications" | 15:57 |
| Staberinde | ioria: nope, fails when reading the package lists | 15:57 |
| Staberinde | genii: I dont suppose there's a tool to validate the status file is there? | 15:58 |
| deadmund | Voyage: Well, I don't think that a specific app is causing a problem like that. But, one thing you can try is to remove all the . folders in your home folder (and reboot) to reset all your apps) | 15:58 |
| fragment137 | mrpizzaface, lol, good advice. Thanks :) | 15:59 |
| ioria | Staberinde, have you tried with synaptic ? | 15:59 |
| petrvs | could anyone using evilvte perhaps confirm for me that -f works? | 16:01 |
| Staberinde | ioria: synaptic dies with the follow message when I launch it http://paste.ubuntu.com/10751150/ | 16:01 |
| mrpizzaface | fragment137, no problemo prepare to spend like 3000000 hours waiting for that to build though | 16:02 |
| Voyage | deadmund, hm | 16:02 |
| Voyage | deadmund, it will not reset all apps. | 16:02 |
| ioria | Staberinde, can you free -m or free ? | 16:03 |
| fragment137 | mrpizzaface, I'll just stick with xorg for now :P | 16:03 |
| deadmund | Voyage: What do you mean?? | 16:03 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | does 14.10 install with sshd enabled by default? | 16:03 |
| OerHeks | petrvs you can check yourself: man evilvte | 16:03 |
| OerHeks | NoImNotNineVolt, no | 16:03 |
| Staberinde | ioria: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10751180/ | 16:03 |

| fcn | guys what font is it that has a large dot for an asterix? it shows up with password fields in ubuntu. I'm looking for that font. | 16:03 |
| fragment137 | that'd be so fun to play around with, lol | 16:03 |
| petrvs | OerHeks: man pages aren't executables =) | 16:04 |
| petrvs | but I've figured it out anyway, huzzah | 16:04 |
| petrvs | all the options are commented out in the header | 16:04 |
| ioria | Staberinde, you are quite out of memory... | 16:04 |
| mrpizzaface | fragment137, good choice | 16:04 |
| Staberinde | ioria: this is true, do you think its related to my current predicament? | 16:05 |
| ioria | Staberinde, maybe... do you have /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20apt-show-versions ? | 16:06 |
| Staberinde | ioria: I do indeed have a file called /etc/apt/apt.conf/d/20apt-show-versions | 16:07 |
| ioria | Staberinde, you can rename it or mv... i think you are using Webmin ? | 16:08 |
| Staberinde | ioria, no problem, im just using good old bash on my local :) | 16:10 |
| ioria | Staberinde, soyou don't need apt-show-versions | 16:10 |
| ioria | Staberinde, and sudo apt-get purge apt-show-versions does't work ? | 16:11 |
| Staberinde | ioria: nope, it fails on reading package lists when I try to purge | 16:12 |
| Voyage | deadmund, apache , php, network manager will not be reconfigured | 16:13 |
| ioria | Staberinde, try to mv the file | 16:13 |
| ichsterbdich | u can also copy it on to an usb stic | 16:13 |
| deadmund | Voyage: That's true, those are harder cause they're configs are scattered around /etc. You have to purge those packages to remove the configs | 16:14 |
| ichsterbdich | hmm | 16:14 |
| ichsterbdich | yes | 16:14 |
| deadmund | Voyage: Again, I don't think that a particular application is causing your screen flickering problems | 16:14 |
| Voyage | it was something like dpkg -i reconfigure all | 16:15 |
| Staberinde | ioria: tried mv'ing the file to my home directory, then tried running the purge and I get the same error http://paste.ubuntu.com/10751332/ | 16:17 |
| ioria | Staberinde, ok, did you already change the status file ? | 16:18 |
| PaulePanter | Hi. In what package are the debug symbols for unity-control-center? | 16:19 |
| PaulePanter | http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=control-center does not list them. | 16:19 |
| Staberinde | ioria; yup I swapped it out for status-old, want me to revert that? | 16:19 |
| Staberinde | ioria; yup I swapped it out for status-old, want me to revert that? | 16:19 |
| ioria | Staberinde, /var/lib/dpkg/status i mean ? | 16:19 |
| genii | ioria: Just to get caught up.... you have them manually setting apt-show-versions as uninstalled in the status file and removing it's files as listed at http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/all/apt-show-versions/filelist ...? | 16:19 |
| ioria | Staberinde, no | 16:19 |
| === sins-_k is now known as sins- | ||
| Staberinde | ioria yeah I changed /var/lib/dpkg/status for /var/lib/dpkg/status-old | 16:21 |
| ioria | Staberinde, can you cat /var/lib/dpkg/status and see if it's empty ? | 16:22 |
| Staberinde | ioria: it's not empty, but somethings screwed it royally, this is the final few lines of that command http://paste.ubuntu.com/10751417/ | 16:26 |

| genii | Staberinde: I/O error seems to indicate possibly part of the file was written over a bad part of the hard drive, or the hard drive is having some issue. Is there a bunch of I/O errors in the output of dmesg? | 16:27 |
| ioria | Staberinde, no, you have to gunzip an old one like dpkg.status.1.gz | 16:28 |
| Staberinde | genii: that's quite possible this is an old hard disk | 16:28 |
| Staberinde | ioria: i'll try that now :) | 16:29 |
| ifonly | Is Ubuntu Full Disk Encrytion more reliable than OSX? | 16:29 |
| ifonly | :p | 16:29 |
| ifonly | just wondering | 16:29 |
| zykotick9 | ifonly: i have no idea what OSX's FDE is like, i've never used it. but i've never had issues with LUKS... ymmv. good luck. | 16:30 |
| ifonly | ok | 16:30 |
| zykotick9 | ifonly: i would recommend FDE (LUKS) over the "encrypted home" option! again ymmv. | 16:31 |
| ifonly | ok encrypted home is not so secure then? Should we do both? would that help? | 16:31 |
| petrvs | it's secure, it's just not _as_ secure | 16:32 |
| zykotick9 | ifonly: BOTH isn't a great idea, cause there is a performance it for "encrypted home", and using both would be redundant. | 16:32 |
| petrvs | and Mac OS is kind of the laughing stock of the security universe | 16:32 |
| zykotick9 | s/it/hit/ | 16:32 |
| ifonly | zykotick9, I have read online that FDE is better performance than just encrypted home | 16:33 |
| === sins-_k is now known as sins- | ||
| SchrodingersScat | ifonly: does it even let you do both? not as I recall, encrypted disk also encrypts home | 16:33 |
| ifonly | SchrodingersScat, we can sure do both | 16:34 |
| ifonly | petrvs, OSX is a laughing stock for security? Really? | 16:34 |
| petrvs | ifonly: yup | 16:34 |
| ifonly | ok | 16:35 |
| Ziber | Can I use multiple wildcards in a grep search? | 16:35 |
| petrvs | I would imagine its full disk encryption is sound, but that's not saying much | 16:35 |
| zykotick9 | ifonly: FDE DOES perform better then "encrypted home"... | 16:35 |
| petrvs | Ziber: egrep 'foo|bar|baz' | 16:35 |
| petrvs | zykotick9: well, with ecryptfs it would | 16:36 |
| petrvs | so in quotes, yeah | 16:36 |
| petrvs | but you can encrypt a /home partition the same way as full disk, if you wanted | 16:36 |
| WACOMalt_ | hey, in the installer when it initially gives yout he easy options of "use the whole drive" ect ect, is there any way to tell it to do that, but for a different drive than the one it chose by default? | 16:37 |
| Lord-Kamina | Hello. | 16:37 |
| WACOMalt_ | or do I have to use the confusing partitions screen? | 16:37 |
| Ziber | petrvs: Hm, okay, that works, thanks. | 16:37 |
| petrvs | Ziber: you can use more complex regex, too | 16:37 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: 'lo | 16:37 |
| Lord-Kamina | Does anybody know possible reasons for a isolinux wrong checksum error (trying to boot from DVD on a macbook pro); if the ISO and burned disc checksum are okay? | 16:37 |
| cfhowlett | WACOMalt_, yes. "do something else" option | 16:37 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: how fast did you burn it? | 16:38 |
| Lord-Kamina | 4x | 16:38 |
| n0x | moinsen! | 16:38 |
| Lord-Kamina | Also, tried to do an MD5 checksum of the disc after burning and it matched the wiki. | 16:38 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: what're you burning with, some apps will verify the burn | 16:38 |
| WACOMalt_ | in the partitions window of the installer, do I just choose the empty drive and set that drive for bootloader and hit next? | 16:38 |
| Lord-Kamina | The optical unit is exactly the same, because it's an external USB drive. | 16:38 |
| baxx | I'm trying to make a screenshot alias but this doesn't work : alias gshot='gnome-screenshot -a -f' | 16:38 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: and can you not just use a USB stick? | 16:38 |
| WACOMalt_ | or do I need to click "New Partition Table" ? | 16:39 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: oh it is USB? | 16:39 |
| Lord-Kamina | External USB DVDRW | 16:39 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: ah | 16:39 |
| Lord-Kamina | I'm trying the USB now but it's been hit-and-miss because apparently there's a thing with video drivers and EFI booting | 16:39 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: can you not use a usb stick? | 16:39 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: hrmmm | 16:39 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: nomodeset, perhaps? | 16:39 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: or use the minimal cd image | 16:39 |
| baxx | edit that screenshot is now working :/ whoops | 16:40 |
| WACOMalt_ | dangit. if I do the manual drive selection I have to manually tell it which partitions to make and at what sizes. This is beyond me. What does the "Use whole drive" option set up by default on a blank drive? | 16:40 |
| kohane | hello | 16:40 |
| kohane | hello | 16:41 |
| kohane | 有没有懂中文的？ | 16:41 |
| cfhowlett | !ask | kohane, | 16:41 |
| ubottu | kohane,: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 16:41 |
| cfhowlett | kohane, in English | 16:41 |
| kohane | ok | 16:41 |
| Lord-Kamina | I haven't been able to even get to the boot logo so far. | 16:41 |
| Lord-Kamina | Currently dd'ing the usb drive, no idea how much longer i'll take. | 16:42 |
| Lord-Kamina | Where can I get that minimal cd from? | 16:42 |
| cfhowlett | !mini | Lord-Kamina | 16:42 |
| ubottu | Lord-Kamina: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 16:42 |
| Ziber | See, egrep 'foo|bar' is regex for 'OR', isn't it? I have prefix-something-suffix. I want to match a prefix AND part of the suffix. | 16:42 |
| n0x | lol | 16:42 |
| Ziber | prefix-*-suff* | 16:42 |
| Lord-Kamina | But I need to live-boot, the minimal image won't let me do that, will it? | 16:42 |
| n0x | no | 16:43 |
| cfhowlett | Lord-Kamina, please read the mini wiki | 16:43 |
| Mion | Ziber: are you trying to parse html/xml? | 16:43 |
| Ziber | Mion: It's a list of server names, actually. | 16:43 |
| Ziber | Just a file. | 16:43 |
| Voyage | how to reconfigure all apps. I guess there are alot of issues happeneing in my pc. display goes of or flickers. internet goes of some times. | 16:44 |
| Mion | post example of the actual string | 16:44 |
| Ziber | Mion: abc-def-ghi. I want to match abc-*-g* | 16:44 |
| Mion | look forward then | 16:45 |
| Mion | possibly | 16:45 |
| digitsm | Today I wanted to install xubuntu and all necessary software on a PC. It took ~7 hours, after which I was not able to install all necessary software | 16:45 |
| WACOMalt_ | please can anyone at least tell me what are the default partitions/mountpoints in ubuntu when you choose "use the whole drive" ? | 16:45 |
| digitsm | My main problem is slow internet connection | 16:45 |
| Ziber | Seriously? We have to get that complicated... If I want to do this on the fly, usually I just pipe one grep into a nother | 16:46 |
| MonkeyDust | digitsm 7 hours is huge, installaing ubuntu shoud take about 20 minutes | 16:46 |
| Ziber | *another | 16:46 |
| kohane | then | 16:46 |
| digitsm | MonkeyDust, Installing yes, but what would you do if your graphic card is not supported out of the box? | 16:46 |
| MonkeyDust | typo's* | 16:46 |
| digitsm | I took 3-4 hours to only test different ways of installing nvidia 334.21 | 16:47 |
| MonkeyDust | oh nvidia | 16:47 |
| digitsm | MonkeyDust, Yeah :( | 16:47 |
| digitsm | MonkeyDust, It was a shame for me, specially that the target PC was for my company. If I become slow in installations so much, I will be forced to switch back to windows for my developments :( | 16:48 |
| cfhowlett | digitsm, how did you download the .iso? torrents are often faster - and more reliable - than direct download | 16:49 |
| chanced | are server related questions relevant to this chan? | 16:49 |
| cfhowlett | !server | chanced | 16:49 |
| ubottu | chanced: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide - Support in #ubuntu-server | 16:49 |
| kohane | It's no fun. | 16:49 |
| maraneta | I plugged in an external usb drive into my ubuntu 14.04 server. It did not auto mount in my /media directory. How can I find out where it is located? | 16:49 |
| chanced | cfhowlett: awesome, thanks | 16:50 |
| petrvs | maraneta: sudo lsblk -f | 16:50 |
| rofltech | chanced: yeah | 16:50 |
| petrvs | maraneta: or it's possible your file manager can mount it explicitly | 16:50 |
| Lord-Kamina | Currently trying to boot the USB stick | 16:50 |
| Lord-Kamina | So far, appears stuck in i8042 controller error but I have no way to know whether it is actually hung up. | 16:51 |
| rofltech | Lord-Kamina: it shouldn't stick on loading modules for more than a split second on any reasonable hardware | 16:52 |
| maraneta | petrvs: Thank you! it doesn't say anything under the mountpoint column though... it has name: sdc1, fstype: ntfs, label: backups | 16:53 |
| maraneta | petrvs: Does this mean its not mounted? | 16:53 |
| Lord-Kamina | rofltech, then it's this stupid macbook acting up. | 16:53 |
| rofltech | maraneta: mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda3 <location to mount to> | 16:53 |
| rofltech | maraneta: er /dev/sdc or whatever sorry | 16:54 |
| maraneta | rofltech: i'll try that now, thanks | 16:54 |
| maraneta | rofltech: will that work even though /dev/sdc is not a directory? | 16:56 |
| petrvs | maraneta: 'mount' will tell you what's mounted at any given time | 16:57 |
| petrvs | maraneta: it's likely sdc1 you want to mount | 16:57 |
| petrvs | maraneta: and you need to mount it to a directory | 16:57 |
| rofltech | maraneta: /dev/sdc1 is your partition so use that sorry i'm in auto answer mode atm | 16:57 |
| petrvs | maraneta: check if your file manager is aware of it first, left side | 16:58 |
| digitsm | One of the main problems in installing xubuntu and necessary packages for me, was slow internet connection | 16:58 |
| petrvs | if you want it mounted all the time, though, you'd want to add it to /etc/fstab | 16:58 |
| maraneta | petrvs: aware of sdc1? | 16:58 |
| petrvs | maraneta: yes, it might list it on the left | 16:58 |
| digitsm | I could not download with higher speed than 200KB/s | 16:58 |
| maraneta | petrvs: I'm using a server so I don't have a gui | 16:58 |
| === ser_ is now known as hellowor | ||
| petrvs | maraneta: oh okay | 16:58 |
| petrvs | maraneta: a server doesn't usually auto mount things, either, that follows | 16:58 |
| === hellowor is now known as hhhhhh | ||
| digitsm | I have a question: Is there any way to install packages from my laptop which has required packages installed? | 16:59 |
| maraneta | petrvs: so how can I find where sdc1 is located? | 16:59 |
| maraneta | it's not under /dev | 16:59 |
| digitsm | instead of downloading them from internet | 16:59 |
| rofltech | digitsm: dpkg -i | 16:59 |
| rofltech | digitsm: oh nvm | 16:59 |
| digitsm | rofltech, dpkg -i installs all packages | 17:00 |
| rofltech | digitsm: grab them from the temp dir maybe | 17:00 |
| digitsm | I don't want to install every thing. not all of the packages on my laptop are necessary | 17:00 |
| digitsm | rofltech, how? you mean copying them to apt cache? | 17:00 |
| Pinkamena_D | my desktop is stuck in the 'choosing between two windows to maximize' stage. I have programs open there that I do not want to kill | 17:01 |
| Pinkamena_D | If I click on the window to choose one nothing happens. If I close the windows the screen remains dimmed and I still can not do anything | 17:02 |
| Pinkamena_D | how can I regain some control here? | 17:02 |
| Lord-Kamina | Since in the USB, I can at least get to GRUB... can anybody suggest alternate booting commands I might try to get it to boot? | 17:02 |
| petrvs | maraneta: uh, what does sudo fdisk -l say? | 17:02 |
| maraneta | petrvs: oh, it says /dev/sdc1 | 17:03 |
| Pinkamena_D | is there a command to restart unity without killing everything for example not lightdm restart? | 17:03 |
| maraneta | petrvs: I guess I don't understand the concept that well but I guess it doesn't have to be a directory | 17:03 |
| maraneta | mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 <location to mount to> | 17:04 |
| maraneta | petrvs: should I use that command | 17:04 |
| digitsm | Isn't there really a way to download packages from my laptop instead of internet? | 17:07 |
| digitsm | By copying caches for example? | 17:08 |
| EriC^^ | how many | 17:08 |
| genii | !offline | 17:08 |
| ubottu | If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. See also !APTonCD | 17:08 |
| digitsm | genii, by selecting the packages, does it automatically select its dependencies? | 17:10 |
| Lord-Kamina | Ok. nomodeset booted. | 17:10 |
| Lord-Kamina | It was indeed an issue with the radeon drivers. | 17:11 |
| petrvs | maraneta: sudo mkdir /mnt/backup; sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 /mnt/backup; ls /mnt/backup/ | 17:11 |
| baxx | I have a script that runs a screen shot as follows : gnome-screenshot -a -f ~/Pictures/$1.png does anyone know how I'd trigger this in i3? Preferably so that a window or something popped up for me to name it, cheers | 17:11 |
| petrvs | gnome-screenshot sounds heavy for using i3 | 17:12 |
| petrvs | are you using i3 with GNOME? | 17:12 |
| hkrrsx | baxx: check out i3lock for i3-wm | 17:13 |
| hkrrsx | baxx: the command would be " i3lock -i /path/to/image " | 17:13 |
| jost_ | I'm on a machine with XUbuntu 14.10 as the single OS. But GRUB still shows me a 10 second timeout on boot - how can I switch that off? I'd still like to see the grub prompt when an error occurs | 17:14 |
| hkrrsx | baxx: You can even bind it to a key, say like Pause/Break | 17:14 |
| baxx | petrvs: well I've got gnome installed because that script works, so I guess that's a yes, but I'm using i3 as the WM | 17:14 |
| jost_ | I've done some googeling, but nothing seems to work | 17:14 |
| baxx | hkrrsx: thanks, I'll have a look for that now | 17:14 |
| hkrrsx | baxx: Good job | 17:14 |
| petrvs | jost_: /etc/default/grub | 17:14 |
| maraneta | petrvs: i get 'ntfs-3g: command not found' | 17:15 |
| jost_ | petrvs: yeah, updated that, and also ran `update-grub2` afterwards | 17:15 |
| Lord-Kamina | Does it make any sense to zero-out an sad? | 17:16 |
| petrvs | maraneta: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g then try again | 17:16 |
| petrvs | Lord-Kamina: an ssd? Only if you're giving it away to a friend | 17:16 |
| digitsm | Excuse me, I have another question too: When I installed the new Xubuntu on my company's PC, it said "do you want to update"? I said yes and after that my kernel updated to 3.16! | 17:17 |
| digitsm | Is kernel 3.16 available for 14.04? | 17:17 |
| baxx | hkrrsx: this seems to be a screenlocker rather than a screenSHOT thing ;) Still reading, maybe I've midded something | 17:17 |
| Lord-Kamina | If I had previously, somehow, royally fucked up the partition map beyond any recognition? | 17:17 |
| maraneta | petrvs: is there any way to do it without using ntfs-3g? the server in question has no internet access and it would be very difficult to get it | 17:17 |
| petrvs | digitsm: yes | 17:17 |
| maraneta | petrvs: what about the mount -t command | 17:17 |
| petrvs | maraneta: just a longer equivalent | 17:17 |
| hkrrsx | baxx: pardon me, i must have mis-interpreted your statement | 17:17 |
| petrvs | maraneta: you can try mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/backup, too, or if that doesn't work mount -t ntfs | 17:18 |
| digitsm | petrvs, really? is the new kernel name "linux-generic-lts-utopic"? | 17:18 |
| petrvs | maraneta: but ntfs-3g is superior | 17:18 |
| baxx | hkrrsx: no worries :) I'm trying to trigger a screenshot script that I have using i3 basically | 17:18 |
| petrvs | digitsm: not sure, it's got 3.16 in its name, though =) | 17:18 |
| maraneta | petrvs: what would I be missing out on if I jus tused mount -t ntfs | 17:18 |
| baxx | gnome-screenshot -a -f ~/Pictures/$1.png hkrrsx that is the script, would be nice to have a pop up window or something to name it I guess, not a biggie though | 17:18 |
| petrvs | maraneta: I'm not really sure, I don't follow it, ntfs-3g was always ahead | 17:19 |
| petrvs | there was a time when the kernel's ntfs support was read only | 17:19 |
| digitsm | petrvs, Didn't I accidentally upgraded from 14.04 to 14.10? | 17:19 |
| petrvs | digitsm: dunno, did you? | 17:19 |
| digitsm | petrvs, I only wanted to update 14.04.2 to latest version of LTS | 17:19 |
| digitsm | not to 14.10 | 17:20 |
| digitsm | petrvs, And I am not sure whether nvidia 334.21 is compatible with kernel 3.13 or 3.16? | 17:20 |
| xangua | (12:17:13) digitsm: Is kernel 3.16 available for 14.04? - yes, it is of the Hardware Enablement Stack | 17:20 |
| xangua | so LTS releases can keep up with latest hardware | 17:21 |
| digitsm | xangua, Is it recommended to upgrade to 3.13? | 17:21 |
| digitsm | *3.16 | 17:21 |
| xangua | or latest hardware supported for the kernel at least | 17:21 |
| bekks | xangua: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 17:22 |
| hkrrsx | baxx: the only other screenshot tool I've heard of being used in a terminal is " scrot " but I'm not sure that it'll give you a dialog box to name the file before taking it | 17:23 |
| digitsm | xangua, these multiple kernels make me confused | 17:23 |
| hkrrsx | baxx: Here's the man page for it though .... http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/scrot.1.html | 17:23 |
| clouddig | When I call "curl -I https://mydomain.com" I get "curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate", but when I call it like this "curl --cacert /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt -I https://mydomain.com" it succeeds. | 17:26 |
| clouddig | "curl-config --ca" shows "/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt", so I think it should be using that file anyway. | 17:27 |
| tos-1 | baxx: There's also import from ImageMagick. | 17:27 |
| quackgyver | Can somebody help me? I need to install Windows 8.1 on a UEFI device which has previously had Ubuntu on it (I have to change OS because apparently if you go into sleep mode from within Ubuntu on an Intel NUC, it will get bricked (sigh)), but during the Windows 8 installer it complains that it needs the target drive to be a valid NTFS one, and beyond that it | 17:27 |
| quackgyver | won't let me format it for some reason I can't comprehend (the "format" button is grayed out). Can somebody please help me figure out what's wrong and how I can get Windows on this device? | 17:27 |
| clouddig | Any ideas? | 17:27 |
| digitsm | xangua, Ahhh! I got it. the 14.04.2 will ship with Hardware Enablemwnt Stack. So if I don't want to be updated to latest kernel / x windows I should remain with 14.04.1 | 17:27 |
| hkrrsx | clouddig: Try "curl -ILk https://mydomain.com" | 17:27 |
| digitsm | If I knew it before, it could save my time a lot | 17:27 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: you might want to sgdisk -Z the device, if you want it empty and ready | 17:27 |
| quackgyver | petrvs: Could you explain what that means? | 17:28 |
| clouddig | hkrrsx: That works... | 17:28 |
| quackgyver | I'm still an Ubuntu newb | 17:28 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: it just resets the partition table for a generici gpt setu | 17:28 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: don't use it on a disk with things you want to keep on it | 17:28 |
| petrvs | do use it on a disk you want things looking for generic gpt setups to find | 17:28 |
| baxx | tos-1: not sure if anyone said anything before you i've just got abck - thanks for that though I'll have a look | 17:29 |
| aliman | hi guys | 17:29 |
| VanDerGroot | Hi guise | 17:30 |
| VanDerGroot | I've got a problem with samba. One of my users can't access a file share another user can. | 17:30 |
| petrvs | VanDerGroot: put them in a shared group | 17:30 |
| tos-1 | baxx: hkrrsx recommended scrot, which is also reasonable. | 17:30 |
| VanDerGroot | petrvs: They are | 17:31 |
| quackgyver | petrvs: yeah i just want to clear the whole disk | 17:31 |
| quackgyver | do i do that from within ubuntus terminal? | 17:31 |
| VanDerGroot | petrvs: They are both members of sambashare and are both added to the "users = " part of smb.conf | 17:31 |
| clouddig | hkrrsx: but I don't want -k (insecure). | 17:32 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: you can, yes, just get the device right | 17:32 |
| clouddig | hkrrsx: The point is that the certificate is in ca-certificates file. I'm confused that it's not using that. | 17:32 |
| MonkeyDust | VanDerGroot look for a difference in the config files, permissions, groups etc, so you know what causes it | 17:32 |
| petrvs | VanDerGroot: you'll also need to chmod/chown properly the directory/contents | 17:32 |
| baxx | tos-1: cool cool - thanks :) | 17:32 |
| VanDerGroot | MonkeyDust: What do you mean, are there different config files for each user? | 17:33 |
| VanDerGroot | petrvs: They are both members of a group that has permissions. | 17:33 |
| aliman | how can i make the left side dock disappear? i would like to install cairo-dock but i'll have both there thou | 17:33 |
| MonkeyDust | VanDerGroot look for any difference | 17:33 |
| petrvs | VanDerGroot: right, but the data itself also has to be owned by that group | 17:33 |
| VanDerGroot | MonkeyDust: In what? | 17:33 |
| === rikut_ is now known as rikut | ||
| Authentic | do we have a channel for hackers on freenode? | 17:34 |
| === test is now known as Guest11076 | ||
| digitsm | Just one question: How can I know whether my laptop is running 14.04, 14.04.1 or 14.04.2? | 17:34 |
| MonkeyDust | VanDerGroot ok, so that's your actual question: where to start looking | 17:34 |
| SchrodingersScat | !alis | Authentic | 17:34 |
| ubottu | Authentic: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" . For more help or questions relating to alis, please join #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* | 17:34 |
| VanDerGroot | MonkeyDust: I guess so. :) | 17:34 |
| hkrrsx | clouddig: What's the actual domain in question? | 17:35 |
| baxx | tos-1: just tried scrot, still not sure how to trigger it from i3 so that I get the option for entering file name and optional location though.... perhaps this just needs to be run from a terminal each time? I'm willing to accept that now ;) | 17:35 |
| ioria | VanDerGroot, /var/log/samba or /etc/samba/smb.conf | 17:35 |
| MonkeyDust | VanDerGroot if you do'nt get an answer here, go and ask in #samba | 17:35 |
| clouddig | hkrrsx: it's not publicly available, but it's running an internally issued certificate. | 17:36 |
| maraneta | so assuming my server has no internet access, is there any way to get it to recognize the ntfs filesystem? even just doing mount -t ntfs, it says 'unknown filesystem type ntfs', petrvs | 17:36 |
| petrvs | maraneta: you can probably enable ntfs support in your kernel, yes | 17:37 |
| petrvs | maraneta: 'dpkg -l | grep -i ntfs' says what? | 17:37 |
| hkrrsx | clouddig: Have a read through this article and see if it leads you to a resolution: https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/issues/2208 | 17:37 |
| gcr | hello | 17:38 |
| quackgyver | petrvs: So if I understand you correctly, I unplug my Windows 8 installation USB stick, reboot the computer into Ubuntu, go into terminal, type sgdisk -Z | 17:38 |
| maraneta | petrvs: no output =T | 17:38 |
| quackgyver | And then reboot into the Windows installer again, and it'll be able to write to the disk? | 17:38 |
| VanDerGroot | ioria: Thank you. That log file held some new things to search on. :) | 17:41 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: usb stick? | 17:41 |
| rblst | hi, i have a wired connection in NetworkManager that is disabled (grey) in 12.04, how to enable it? | 17:41 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: are you trying to image a windows install image to a usb stick? | 17:41 |
| quackgyver | petrvs: the windows installer is on a usb stick | 17:41 |
| syeekick | http://askubuntu.com/questions/162564/how-can-i-tell-if-my-system-was-booted-as-efi-uefi-or-bios i forgot which mode i used to install the ubuntu server 14.04 image uefi or legacy. dmesg | grep "EFI v" will this command let me know if its legacy or uefi? | 17:41 |
| ioria | VanDerGroot, good | 17:41 |
| petrvs | maraneta: okay, you can potentially add it to your kernel without being online | 17:41 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: that doesn't answer my question | 17:42 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: is that a no? | 17:42 |
| quackgyver | petrvs: I have my Windows 8 installer on a USB stick, but it won't let me install to my SSD (where Ubuntu is currently installed) because it's complaining that the disk isn't NTFS. | 17:42 |
| ioria | VanDerGroot, but usually the issue is in smb.conf | 17:42 |
| quackgyver | So I'm asking, if I run your command from within Ubuntu, will the Windows installer be able to install onto it? | 17:42 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: ah | 17:42 |
| quackgyver | :) | 17:42 |
| VanDerGroot | ioria: Yea. Just can't figure out what is different for the users. | 17:42 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: I'm not sure, you can try running it from Ubuntu | 17:43 |
| unknownsquad | bobo | 17:43 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: it'd make your Ubuntu system almost immediately unusable, though | 17:43 |
| ioria | VanDerGroot, diff :-) | 17:43 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: if it worked | 17:43 |
| unknownsquad | lol | 17:43 |
| quackgyver | petrvs: I'm fine with that. ;) | 17:43 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: you might want to have a Linux live OS on a CD/DVD/other USB handy beforehand | 17:43 |
| quackgyver | I can't use Ubuntu on this baby anyway. | 17:43 |
| petrvs | or access to some OS | 17:43 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: oh, why not? | 17:43 |
| quackgyver | Ah yes. | 17:43 |
| VanDerGroot | ioria: Can I somehow use diff to see what is different between users, like group belongings and the like? | 17:44 |
| quackgyver | petrvs: As I said a bit earlier, this is an Intel NUC computer, and I learned the hard way that if you install Ubuntu onto it and go into hibernate/sleep, it'll completely brick the device. :P | 17:44 |
| ioria | VanDerGroot, i use it only for files | 17:44 |
| unknownsquad | u guys r part of my irc botnet | 17:44 |
| quackgyver | Took a lot of haggling with Intel to get a new one. | 17:44 |
| ioria | VanDerGroot, i think not | 17:44 |
| VanDerGroot | ioria: Ah. That's what I thought as well. But this is linux. It holds maaaaany new things for me. ^^ | 17:44 |
| quackgyver | Of course it's their fault but.. nothing I can do about it besides installing Windows 8 on it. | 17:44 |
| ioria | VanDerGroot, they are there just to be discovered | 17:45 |
| VanDerGroot | ioria: I'm not really super into discovery of this kind. I try to learn this stuff because it's useful. :P | 17:46 |
| ioria | VanDerGroot, sure | 17:46 |
| Giwrgaras | anyone knows how to change the resolution in virtual box? i look for 1920 x 1080 and its not there | 17:47 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: brick means broken | 17:47 |
| hkrrsx | Giwrgaras: Have you installed virtualbox guest additions ? | 17:47 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: like unfixable, that's what brick means | 17:47 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: that's undoubtedly a simple configuration issue, hibernation is complex regardless of OS | 17:48 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: but why would you want to hibernate a low power computer anyway | 17:48 |
| Aamit | Giwrgaras, virtualbox guest additional tools iso.... | 17:48 |
| clouddig | hkrrsx: If I 'export CURL_CA_BUNDLE="/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt"' then it works as expected. I'm confused that it curl-config shows that it should use that ca file, but it doesn't unless I set the environment variable | 17:48 |
| maraneta | petrvs: would adding ntfs to the kernel be difficult | 17:48 |
| petrvs | maraneta: no, but I don't use Ubuntu much, so I'm not familiar with the ideal Ubuntu process | 17:48 |
| petrvs | maraneta: zgrep -i ntfs /proc/config.gz | 17:49 |
| quackgyver | petrvs: no i literally mean brick | 17:49 |
| quackgyver | i.e. it won't even power on | 17:49 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: really | 17:49 |
| quackgyver | yes! | 17:49 |
| quackgyver | no joke | 17:49 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: you unplugged it? | 17:49 |
| quackgyver | of course | 17:49 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: does it have a hardware power button? | 17:49 |
| quackgyver | yep | 17:49 |
| quackgyver | trust me, i did all i could | 17:49 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: you held it down whilst unplugged? | 17:49 |
| quackgyver | yes, i did all of the troubleshooting steps | 17:50 |
| Giwrgaras | Aamit: what do you mean? | 17:50 |
| quackgyver | it was completely bricked | 17:50 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: reset the bios/etc.? | 17:50 |
| Giwrgaras | hkrrsx: no i havent | 17:50 |
| Giwrgaras | what is that? | 17:50 |
| quackgyver | yes | 17:50 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: that's cool | 17:50 |
| quackgyver | i googled around, and apparently the only way to fix it is to remove and reattach the motherboard battery, but on this model its inaccessible | 17:50 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: well, it's probably annoying to get to | 17:50 |
| quackgyver | so i had to ask intel for a new one :p | 17:50 |
| petrvs | that's the case with every computer, even large ones =P | 17:50 |
| petrvs | quackgyver: so you rma'd it? | 17:50 |
| petrvs | ah okay | 17:50 |
| quackgyver | yeah i rma'd it | 17:50 |
| hkrrsx | Giwrgaras: See this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q84boOmiPW8 | 17:50 |
| petrvs | nice of them to give you another | 17:50 |
| petrvs | they'll just fix it and sell it as refurbished | 17:51 |
| quackgyver | yeah | 17:51 |
| quackgyver | also yeah, i actually dont need to hibernate as you said, but all it would take is one faulty click while shutting down or rebooting and it'd be done for again ;) | 17:51 |
| petrvs | so, I lost track of our goal | 17:51 |
| hkrrsx | clouddig: got me | 17:51 |
| petrvs | well you can hard disable hibernation, too | 17:51 |
| quackgyver | i just wanna avoid that so imma make this a windows 8 device, and try to find a better ubuntu device | 17:51 |
| petrvs | but I'd just fix it | 17:51 |
| quackgyver | (though which one i dont know) | 17:51 |
| quackgyver | aye | 17:51 |
| petrvs | windows on a low power device, ew | 17:51 |
| Giwrgaras | thanks hkrrsx | 17:51 |
| petrvs | windows on anything, ew | 17:52 |
| Giwrgaras | only on question if i got this right: i install the guest additions in the guest windows environment? | 17:52 |
| quackgyver | petrvs: im mostly just gonna use this as a router for my unlimited mobile internet ;p | 17:53 |
| fragment137 | I can't mount a linux share | 17:53 |
| petrvs | Giwrgaras: you install them on the guest os, yes | 17:53 |
| hkrrsx | Giwrgaras: You install the guest additions into the host | 17:53 |
| fragment137 | Is there another way for me to be doing this? lol... sshfs or something? | 17:53 |
| petrvs | Giwrgaras: the guest | 17:53 |
| hkrrsx | Er, as petrvs said | 17:53 |
| petrvs | Giwrgaras: your guest is Windows? | 17:53 |
| Giwrgaras | yes and the host is ubuntu | 17:53 |
| petrvs | hkrrsx: I can tell you're a human! | 17:53 |
| petrvs | Giwrgaras: yup, it's fairly simple | 17:53 |
| hkrrsx | petrvs: I'm going for a record number of oops'es today :) | 17:54 |
| petrvs | hkrrsx: yeah I lost track of mine | 17:54 |
| petrvs | fragment137: sure, sshfs | 17:54 |
| MouseTheLuckyDog | Let's see if I can ask this without garbling .... When I create a directory using apt-get source, I get three files and a subdir. How can I recreate the subdir from the files that are downloaded. | 17:54 |
| petrvs | do what? | 17:54 |
| Fudster | Can anyone tell me how to fix this? trying to install mysql-server http://pastebin.com/Y8As7ZV9 | 17:55 |
| petrvs | Fudster: dunno, but I'd install mariadb-server instead | 17:56 |
| fragment137 | petrvs, any way to get cifs working? I'd much rather do it that way | 17:56 |
| petrvs | it's a drop-in replacement by the same author, and it will actually survive this decade | 17:56 |
| petrvs | fragment137: yup | 17:56 |
| Fudster | petrvs: why? :p I mean....is;nt it completely diffferent? | 17:56 |
| petrvs | I have lunch things to do, though, someone else will get you | 17:56 |
| petrvs | Fudster: nope, it's incredibly similar (drop-in) | 17:56 |
| petrvs | all the mysql devs that care about anything moved to mariadb | 17:56 |
| petrvs | mysql is not long for this world | 17:57 |
| petrvs | oracle promised they wouldn't kill it before 2014 | 17:57 |

| hkrrsx | Fudster: See this -- http://tutewall.com/package-mysql-server-5-5-is-not-configured-yet/ | 17:58 |
| Quantos | I need an opinion, should I run 14.04.2 LTS or is 14.10 the upgrade? | 17:59 |
| MonkeyDust | Quantos 14.04.2 is LTS, longer support | 17:59 |
| MonkeyDust | Quantos support for 14.10 will soon end | 18:00 |
| Quantos | Yes, I understand the support is longer, but someone - could be a goofball told me that *.10 is the upgrade | 18:00 |
| s1991 | Is there any idm like tool in ubuntu? | 18:00 |
| xangua | Quantos: 14.10 is the latest ubuntu release, yes | 18:00 |
| xangua | latest stable | 18:01 |
| Quantos | But that requires updating more frequently correct? | 18:01 |
| MonkeyDust | s1991 what's idm? | 18:01 |
| in_deep_thought | does anyone know how I can add the redis-tools package to my apt-get? | 18:02 |
| in_deep_thought | I try apt-get install redis-tools and it can never find it | 18:02 |
| rofltech | Quantos: you need to update for security no matter what verision you pick but lts requires less upgrades to new major versions | 18:02 |
| MonkeyDust | Quantos http://core0.staticworld.net/images/article/2013/12/ubuntu-support-schedule-100155610-orig.png | 18:02 |
| s1991 | MonkeyDust: ohh, internet download manager (for windows) | 18:03 |
| xangua | s1991: uget | 18:03 |
| Quantos | Sorry, I used the wrong word there, I mean using *.10 needs upgrading more frequently | 18:03 |
| xangua | http://ugetdm.com/ | 18:03 |
| Quantos | Thanks for the tips guys, reading that link now | 18:03 |
| digitsm | Hello again. Only now I found out that 14.04.2 iso ships with kernel 3.16!!! I didn't know that. because when I do "lsb_release -a" in my laptop (installed from 14.04), it says I have 14.04.2 too! | 18:04 |
| MonkeyDust | s1991 steadyflow and fatrat are download managers | 18:04 |
| digitsm | So if I want to stick with kernel 3.13, I have to use 14.04.1 iso image to install | 18:05 |
| MonkeyDust | digitsm 14.04.2 has 3.13 too | 18:05 |
| digitsm | MonkeyDust, I tested it just right now | 18:06 |
| digitsm | MonkeyDust, It has 3.16 by default | 18:06 |
| xangua | just install 3.13 from the repository | 18:06 |
| digitsm | xangua, I want the good old stable release, not HSE or other unstable kernels | 18:08 |
| bekks | HSE? | 18:08 |
| xangua | "unstable kernel" ? | 18:08 |
| digitsm | by unstable I mean a kernel not supported by my GPU driver | 18:08 |
| MonkeyDust | digitsm well, i'm using 14.04 and it has 3.13 | 18:08 |
| bekks | The HWE for Trusty ships 3.16 | 18:08 |
| digitsm | MonkeyDust, I have 14.04 on my laptop too, but installed to latest version | 18:09 |
| digitsm | bekks, I didn't know that 14.04.2 is HWE, I thought it's just the latest updates to 14.04.1, like what 14.04.1 was for 14.04 | 18:10 |
| digitsm | It was confusing :( | 18:10 |
| bekks | digitsm: 14.04.2 isnt HWE. | 18:10 |
| digitsm | bekks, I don't get it | 18:11 |
| bekks | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 18:11 |
| TurtleDan | I am havin issues playin a DVD in Ubuntu Mate. I checked for libdvdcss and it wasn't installed but mentioned extras and I installed it, but that removed alot of programs and when I try to re-install it breaks. Can anyone help with this? | 18:11 |
| Artemis3 | TurtleDan, get vlc and forget :3 | 18:11 |
| TurtleDan | I had VLC installed but it wouldn't play. | 18:12 |
| Artemis3 | using open disc? | 18:12 |
| TurtleDan | Yeah. | 18:12 |
| Giwrgaras | hi i installed the virtual box additions but my display again is not 1920 x 1080. do you know what do i have to do ? | 18:12 |
| digitsm | bekks, Just look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Kernel.2BAC8-Support.A14.04.x_Ubuntu_Kernel_Support | 18:12 |
| bekks | digitsm: And? | 18:12 |
| digitsm | It says that the kernel of 14.04.2 is 3.16 | 18:12 |
| digitsm | meaning that 14.04.2 is HWE | 18:12 |
| Artemis3 | TurtleDan, picked the right device? ie. /dev/cdrom ? | 18:13 |
| TurtleDan | I cannot re-install VLC again because it says I have broken packages whenI try to install any of the stuff I had in before. | 18:13 |
| Artemis3 | ah | 18:13 |
| TurtleDan | Yes. I insert the DVD, open with VLC and it does nothin. | 18:13 |
| Artemis3 | i would open vlc first then use the "open disc" from menu | 18:13 |
| xangua | !paste | TurtleDan: the actuall error would be helpful | 18:14 |
| ubottu | TurtleDan: the actuall error would be helpful: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 18:14 |
| Artemis3 | TurtleDan, so you can see the device | 18:14 |
| TurtleDan | Already tried that as well as copy the video folder to VLC all with the same nothiness. | 18:14 |
| xangua | Artemis3: you need libdvdcss no matter if you install VLC or any player | 18:14 |
| Artemis3 | TurtleDan, don't copy the golder :P | 18:15 |
| Artemis3 | folder | 18:15 |
| TurtleDan | There is no error. It just doesn't do anythin | 18:15 |
| Artemis3 | xangua, its bundled last i checked in vlc | 18:15 |
| littlebit | hi people, I have a problem reaching my ubuntu server via ssh. when trying to reach my server i get this message ssh: connect to host server.fritz.box port 22: Connection timed out | 18:15 |
| imdsm_ | Hi guys, I've enabled UFW on my digital ocean droplet, and only allowed port 22 through. I've enabled the firewall, but connections are still getting through | 18:15 |
| imdsm_ | is there anything I can do to check why this might be happening? | 18:15 |
| Artemis3 | TurtleDan, well install the package anyway | 18:16 |
| Artemis3 | it can't hurt | 18:16 |
| Artemis3 | libdvdcss | 18:16 |
| imdsm_ | I've even denied traffic for port 8000 but it gets through | 18:16 |
| digitsm | Just go to xubuntu.org, the only LTS iso available is 14.04.2 | 18:16 |
| digitsm | It is misleading | 18:16 |
| digitsm | I think both 14.04.1 and 14.04.2 (HWE) should be available to customer | 18:17 |
| xangua | digitsm: 14.04.2 is latest point release | 18:17 |
| Pici | /70/70 | 18:17 |
| Artemis3 | digitsm, even if you had the earlier iso, a simple update would put you in the same version | 18:17 |
| xangua | so a person with slow connection had to install all updates instead of just installing last point release and a couple updates¡ digitsm | 18:17 |
| hkrrsx | imdsm_: Check this out -- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | 18:17 |
| ioria | littlebit, can you ping it ? | 18:17 |
| littlebit | ioria: yes I can ping my server | 18:18 |
| jonascj | Hi all. I am trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 in Virtualbox 4.3, but the guest os additions will not install once the OS itself is installed. | 18:18 |
| hkrrsx | imdsm_: Also, run " sudo ufw status " to verify the rule shows up afterwards | 18:18 |
| digitsm | xangua, wtih the exception that 14.04.2 has newer kernel and x window, which may cause unstablities | 18:18 |
| MortezaE | How is it possible that i get "permission denied" error when opening some file with root? | 18:18 |
| MortezaE | whats wrong? | 18:18 |
| jonascj | It says "The headers for the current running kernel was not found" | 18:19 |
| ioria | littlebit, do you connect with fqn or ip numbers ? | 18:19 |
| digitsm | xangua, Artemis3, I think user should be able to keep old 3.13 kernel if he wants | 18:19 |
| digitsm | I have 14.04 installed on my laptop, updated to latest versions, but not updated to 3.16 kernel | 18:19 |
| littlebit | ioria: i can only ping it | 18:19 |
| Artemis3 | digitsm, you want the old iso? | 18:20 |
| imdsm_ | thanks hkrrsx, looking at ufw show raw it shows Chain DOCKER (1 references) which I'm guessing is some sort of exception list | 18:20 |
| digitsm | Artemis3, I have it | 18:20 |
| xangua | digitsm: so go install it from repositories | 18:20 |
| ioria | littlebit, i mean, what's the full command you use ? | 18:20 |
| Artemis3 | digitsm, updataing that won't change the kernel version unless you want to | 18:20 |
| Artemis3 | at least not the major version | 18:20 |
| Artemis3 | just security updates etc | 18:21 |
| littlebit | iora: it is ssh user@server.fritz.box | 18:21 |
| digitsm | Artemis3, So if I have 14.04.2 installed, can I have kernel 3.13? | 18:21 |
| digitsm | What about older x org? | 18:21 |
| bekks | digitsm: Yes. | 18:21 |
| hkrrsx | imdsm_: not sure about that particular chain | 18:22 |
| digitsm | bekks, I feel it's hard. I have to find all HWE changes and roll them back! | 18:22 |
| ioria | littlebit, try with the ip after user@ and not with the name | 18:22 |
| MonkeyDust | kernel panic with 3.16, switched back to 3.13 | 18:22 |
| hkrrsx | imdsm_: I don't have that chain in my UFW ruleset | 18:22 |
| TurtleDan | Okay VLC in Linux can't play the DVD, but VLC in wine is fine. (chuckle) | 18:22 |
| littlebit | ioria: i did that too | 18:22 |
| digitsm | MonkeyDust, You have problem with 3.16 too? :)) | 18:23 |
| MonkeyDust | digitsm yes, so not using it | 18:23 |
| ioria | littlebit, ok, did you change you ip or are you and the server in the same range ? | 18:23 |
| Artemis3 | TurtleDan, did you install libdvdcss? | 18:24 |
| TurtleDan | It cannot be found. | 18:24 |
| TurtleDan | One moment and I will post the message. | 18:24 |
| ioria | littlebit, usually, that error means that the sshd server hasn't start | 18:24 |
| ioria | ed | 18:24 |
| littlebit | ioria: ok | 18:25 |
| Artemis3 | TurtleDan, try libdvdread4 | 18:25 |
| littlebit | ioria: i'll look into it | 18:25 |
| TurtleDan | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10752687/ | 18:26 |
| === elopio_ is now known as elopio | ||
| TurtleDan | That is already installed Artemis3 | 18:27 |
| Artemis3 | TurtleDan, in a terminal do: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh | 18:27 |
| MonkeyDust | digitsm do you see this error during installation: "Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.16.0-031600-generic (x86_64)" | 18:28 |
| TurtleDan | Done. | 18:28 |
| Artemis3 | well try now | 18:29 |
| digitsm | MonkeyDust, No! I could successfully install 3.16, but my VGA is Geforce GTX 750 Ti which needs nvidia driver 334.21 : http://askubuntu.com/questions/425140/unable-toboot-with-nvidia-gtx-750-ti-even-with-latest-beta-drivers | 18:29 |
| TurtleDan | Got it. Thanks Artemis3 | 18:30 |
| Artemis3 | good | 18:30 |
| digitsm | MonkeyDust, Installing nvidia driver 334.21 is a pain in the ass itself :( | 18:31 |
| threecatstwodogs | wait4(-1, 0x7fff6e8aa914, WNOHANG|WSTOPPED, NULL) = 0 <- anyone know what this is | 18:34 |
| bekks | digitsm: Isnt it in the xorg edgers PPA? | 18:34 |
| bekks | threecatstwodogs: Hard to guess, without any context. | 18:35 |
| digitsm | bekks, I have not tested it yet | 18:35 |
| digitsm | But my colleague was able to manually install nvidia 334.21 on linux mint 17.1 (based on 14.04.1 I think) | 18:35 |
| bekks | digitsm: Well, this isnt Mint, and only their support knows what they changed compared to Ubuntu. | 18:36 |

| digitsm | calek, If you did it before, you did a big thing :) | 18:40 |
| ca1ek | it's possible, it got ported | 18:40 |
| ca1ek | it runs on my laptop fine | 18:40 |
| ca1ek | but on desktop it says that i got no opengl acceleration or stuff like that | 18:40 |

| pjschmit1 | is that normal | 20:50 |
| pjschmit1 | and is there a way I can see why certain dependancies exist? | 20:50 |

| mcphail | pjschmit1: for most things, backporting isn't supported, I'm afraid. It doesn't fit with the current Ubuntu model | 20:53 |

| ynot_ | hi | 21:17 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | Does anyone know why 'FN' key only works with some of the function keys on my keyboard, and not all of them? For example, | 21:17 |
| _Kai_ | because some of them require special software | 21:18 |
| _Kai_ | from your original equipment manufacturer | 21:18 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | 'FN' + 'F11'/ 'F12' keys control volume. | 21:18 |
| k1l | Hun9ryH1ppo: because many manyufacturers dont stick to the acpi standard and using their own stuff. that needs some drivers then which are not always made for linux, too. | 21:18 |
| k1l | Hun9ryH1ppo: best is to see if someone made it working already with your make and model | 21:19 |
| kopasetik | how would i pipe over a query for a file and then run it in node.js? "find *.js | node "? | 21:19 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | _Kai_: I have made a custom keyboard shortcut, prior to installing xdotools, which controls my monitor brightness. The only thing is, it won't let me add 'FN' key with my function keys. It only allows one key, that being any one of the function keys. | 21:21 |
| _Kai_ | don't know sorry | 21:22 |
| Hun9ryH1ppo | k1l: Well thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I love Ubuntu, its a beautiful distro. It's so smooth and compact. If only I can get some freaking function keys to work, that'd be great haha | 21:23 |

| archheretic | will that skip the package? | 22:34 |
| hkrrsx | archheretic: Yes, it should skip updating from that repository on this occasion | 22:35 |
| archheretic | ctrl + d doesnt seem to do anything | 22:36 |
| jeffreylevesque | could someone tell me what `sudo apt-get install -y python-software-properties` does? | 22:36 |
| archheretic | oh | 22:36 |
| daftykins | jeffreylevesque: installs that package without prompting for confirmation (i.e. yes/no?) | 22:37 |
| jeffreylevesque | which package? | 22:37 |
| daftykins | !info python-software-properties | 22:37 |
| ubottu | python-software-properties (source: software-properties): manage the repositories that you install software from. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.94 (utopic), package size 19 kB, installed size 135 kB | 22:37 |
| daftykins | that one | 22:37 |
| archheretic | now something happend, not sure if it got skipped or not | 22:37 |
| hkrrsx | archheretic: $5 says the problem was server-side | 22:38 |
| jeffreylevesque | daftykins: so, it manages packages? | 22:38 |
| k1l | jeffreylevesque: apt-get install packagename installs the package named packagename. -y is for accepting every question if there come one. | 22:38 |
| jeffreylevesque | what is the `python-software-properties` package? | 22:39 |
| daftykins | jeffreylevesque: yes, i think it provides programs like add-apt-repository | 22:39 |
| k1l | jeffreylevesque: see the description form the bot | 22:39 |
| jeffreylevesque | why would you need it? | 22:40 |
| jeffreylevesque | i don't understand the description :( | 22:40 |
| k1l | jeffreylevesque: "This software provides an abstraction of the used apt repositories. It allows you to easily manage your distribution and independent software vendor software sources." | 22:40 |
| daftykins | jeffreylevesque: look it up | 22:40 |
| k1l | jeffreylevesque: it handles the package and repo stuff in the background. | 22:40 |
| jeffreylevesque | does it allow ppa installation? | 22:41 |
| daftykins | pretty sure i just said that it does (: | 22:41 |
| jeffreylevesque | thank you sir | 22:41 |

| SaintMoriarty | hello | 22:49 |
| BBLLCC | r01, r02, r03, i have 50 rXX files I need to bind to make a video file | 22:49 |
| BBLLCC | how do I do it? | 22:49 |
| nibbler | BBLLCC: use unrar | 22:50 |
| SaintMoriarty | can anyone help look at my cron to see if I'm getting this wrong? 52 1 23 4 * 2015 <--- this should tell cron to execute on 4/23/2015 1:53 pm correct ? | 22:50 |
| BBLLCC | nibbler, uncompressing the files will bind em? | 22:50 |
| k1l | BBLLCC: that files are not video files. that is a split rar archive. | 22:51 |
| nibbler | BBLLCC: its a multipart archive, possible with only one or a few files in it - split over multiple smallerfiels | 22:51 |
| === mrcheeks` is now known as mrcheeks | ||
| k1l | BBLLCC: so use unrar to let it make the file again it was in the beginning. | 22:51 |
| BBLLCC | o | 22:51 |
| BBLLCC | ok | 22:52 |
| BBLLCC | will try | 22:52 |
| BBLLCC | thanks | 22:52 |
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: Yes. Looks like you are tryong to fetch some 15.04 iso :) | 22:52 |
| hkrrsx | SaintMoriarty: Please see the section titled "Crontab Sections": https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto | 22:52 |
| bekks | *trying | 22:52 |
| SaintMoriarty | bekks, huh? | 22:53 |
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: It was just a wild guess, no offense meant. | 22:53 |
| SaintMoriarty | hkrrsx, thats where I got my info when I put that together | 22:54 |
| SaintMoriarty | is that incorrect? | 22:54 |
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: the 2015 is wrong. | 22:54 |
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: "53 1 23 4 * ...." | 22:54 |
| SaintMoriarty | bekks, so other then that its correct? | 22:55 |
| SaintMoriarty | for some reason its firing every so many hours | 22:55 |
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: At least it looks correct for the 5 time fields. What about the missing command field? | 22:55 |
| hkrrsx | bekks: SaintMoriarty: I believe the 2nd section should be a "13" instead of a "1" | 22:55 |
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: Can you please show us the full line? | 22:55 |
| SaintMoriarty | hkrrsx, I just caught that as well thanks. | 22:56 |
| hkrrsx | :) | 22:56 |
| SaintMoriarty | bekks, I am using this in a node app to execute a function | 22:56 |
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: Can you please show us the full line? | 22:56 |
| SaintMoriarty | var date = '52 13 23 4 *'; | 22:56 |
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: That actually makes no sense. | 22:57 |
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: Third and last time: can you please show us the full crontab line? | 22:57 |
| SaintMoriarty | I just did I'm using later.js https://github.com/bunkat/later | 22:58 |
| === adminuser is now known as ninjahacker | ||
| bekks | SaintMoriarty: Ok, so you dont want to show us the full crontab line. | 22:58 |

| bekks | Good luck. | 22:58 |

| Scintillo | Any ideas where I could find source code for this driver? Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0810:0001 Personal Communication Systems, Inc. Dual PSX Adaptor | 23:48 |
| daftykins | tried just installing playstation controller drivers? i have a vague feeling there are packages | 23:49 |
| Scintillo | daftykins: The drivers are working | 23:49 |
| daftykins | oh ok | 23:49 |
| Scintillo | The problem is Windows drivers aren't :D | 23:49 |
| Scintillo | So it would be nice to have something to start with to write Windows drivers | 23:49 |
| === kalen is now known as kalen_not-here | ||
| daftykins | funny, i have an old USB PSX adapter that's supported just fine | 23:49 |
| daftykins | 7 or 8? | 23:50 |
| Scintillo | It's Win7, everything but rumble works | 23:50 |
| daftykins | oic | 23:50 |
| daftykins | downloading the source version of the driver package not give it? | 23:50 |
| Scintillo | I'm not quite sure which package it is in | 23:50 |
| Scintillo | It came preinstalled | 23:51 |
| daftykins | quick query of lsmod to see what it's using? perhaps backed up with some kind of lshw output to show what module the pad is using? | 23:52 |
| daftykins | total guesses though i'm afraid | 23:52 |
| Scintillo | Here's dmesg of me plugging the device http://paste.ubuntu.com/10755660/ | 23:55 |
| daftykins | are you using XBMC/Kodi per chance? | 23:56 |
| Scintillo | daftykins: Elementary OS | 23:57 |
| Hailwood | Hey guys, does anyone have any idea how to add a "Mount read only" content menu option to nautilus. I'm often getting issues due to dual booting windows 8 and Ubuntu 14.10 due to windows8's hybernation - but normally when I want to access windows I only want to read from it so it would be great if I could just right click "Mount Read Only" | 23:57 |
| === Isla_de_Muerte is now known as NwS | ||
| daftykins | Scintillo: ah. the dev of that driver is a freenode user | 23:58 |
| daftykins | Hailwood: or write a script that mounts it read only ;) | 23:58 |
| daftykins | Hailwood: or shutdown windows properly \o/ | 23:59 |
