cluelesspersondaftykins, You're failing to explain why I should follow your advice, use your configuration, your way.01:10
daftykinsbecause i manage servers that all work just dandy01:10
hkrrsxcluelessperson: what happens if you comment out all but lines 1 - 6 and restart networking ?01:10
cluelesspersondaftykins, It directly contradicts the other ways it's been explained I should set it up as.01:10
daftykinsi disagree, simply a different approach01:10
cluelesspersondaftykins, You can disagree all you want, I'm not moving until I understand why.01:11
cluelesspersonI don't want "just do it this other way"01:11
cluelesspersonI need to understand why this way doesn't work, and it definitely worked before.01:11
daftykinsyour loss then. by the way your attitude is absolutely terrible and not that of an open minded willing-to-learn user.01:12
daftykinsapproaching free help volunteers with this attitude is shocking01:12
hkrrsxcluelessperson: The reason daftykins is asking you to do that is because PURGING resolvconf will remove both the resolvconf program and its configuration files in hopes of relieving the problem01:12
daftykinsplus it prevents my configuration approach from working01:12
hkrrsxAlso, by removing the static IP's from /etc/network/interfaces will all your server to test DHCP, so long as you set it to DHCP in /etc/network/interfaces01:13
cluelesspersondaftykins, I want to know WHY it doesn't work first, so I can determine what to do, and my battery is about to die01:13
hkrrsxBasically, he's asking to reset your configurations back to stock01:13
hkrrsxThings generally work with stock settings01:13

cluelesspersonYes.01:15
hkrrsxcluelessperson: Humor me and comment out lines 7, 8, 15 and 16 in your /etc/network/interfaces file and restart networking , please01:15

nimbioticsHello everyone. Trying to help a friend who is overseas; he wanted to know whether a certain system is 32 or 64 bit, so I told him to use <<lscpu|grep "CPU op-mode">> and the result was "32-bit, 64-bit" What does this result mean?? TIA!02:24
duckeySo, does anyone have any idea what I can do?02:24
umbra_purusAny tips?02:25
KenbWhat does System profiler tell him?02:25

umbra_purusAny tips? any?02:26
duckeyWho wants to take LSD and run around the woods naked/02:26
ObrienDavenimbiotics, it means it supports both 32 and 64 bit libraries02:26
nate254nimbiotics: It means that the OS has libraries for both architectures and can run both 32bit and 64bit binaries... Have him run "lscpu | grep Arch"02:27
nate254That seems to be the more accurate output02:27
KenbMy system is a Pentium D and I get that too.02:27
somsipnate254: but wont that tell him what his CPU supports, and not what the OS is?02:27
KenbPentium D Intell is dual core 64bit02:28

cluelesspersonhkrrsx,   I'm back from class02:57
hkrrsxcluelessperson: wb02:57
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, and in a much better mood. :P02:57
hkrrsxExcellent02:58
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, so yeah, I cannot access it at cluelessperson.com   my gaming group seems to be connecting to teamspeak fine though03:00
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, So I wonder if it's just blocking me for some reason03:01
hkrrsxcluelessperson: wasn't your situation that your ubuntu server was hanging while trying to access outbound sites?03:01
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, it'd timeout.. because it can't resolve hosts yes03:02
hkrrsxcluelessperson: Ok, can you hastebin the output of your /etc/resolv.conf file?03:04
hkrrsxI remember that your /etc/network/interfaces file also had the nameservers set03:04
hkrrsxLet's see what the difference is03:04
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, http://hastebin.com/hukezijehe.hs03:06
hkrrsxcluelessperson: You're talking in here from the same machine you're hosting cluelessperson.com from ?03:06
hkrrsxcluelessperson: That hastebin looks like it's from your /etc/network/interfaces file .... I'm looking for the output of your /etc/resolv.conf file03:07
cluelesspersonah, one moment03:07
hkrrsxthanks03:07
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, http://hastebin.com/idozunanep.hs03:08
hkrrsxMarvelous03:08
hkrrsxOk, try this: add this line as the FIRST nameserver entry in the list:03:09
hkrrsxnameserver 192.168.0.103:09
hkrrsxThen comment out the remaining 303:09
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, done03:09
hkrrsxBy doing this, we're making your gateway the default DNS server03:09
hkrrsxOk, sudo service networking restart03:09
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, job failed while stopping03:10
hkrrsxEff.03:10
hkrrsxForgot about that part03:10
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, I think that's typical03:10
nate254For anyone who was wondering, my Lenovo's touchpad was fixed by simply updating to the newest kernel (3.19.0)03:10

cluelesspersonhkrrsx, this works now03:15
cluelesspersonhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/10757187/03:15
hkrrsxProper!03:15
hkrrsxI'd presume it's safe to remove the comment from your IPv6 lines but you should probably remove the dns-nameservers lines03:16
hkrrsxEspecially since you're using 192.168.0.1 as your nameserver03:16
Kenbnope but surely something is not right with Burg. It keeps saying to rename a file to "Themes.txt"  .. Sorry I am fairly new, and so looks like 1 I need to get regular grub back into the mbr and working the way it should be. 2 remove all traces of Burg, and redo it using this webpage link you gave me.03:17
Kenb'Now should that be done from the live dvd?03:17
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10757210/03:18
hkrrsxOk, restart networking and see if you have a STATIC v4 address and a DYNAMIC v6 address03:19
hkrrsxsudo ifconfig | grep inet03:19
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, that doesn't work at all.03:19
hkrrsxWhich doesn't work ?03:20
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, the file I just showed you03:20
cluelesspersonI can't reconnect to teamspeak03:20
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, weird, works now03:21
hkrrsxYou had this issue the other day too03:21
hkrrsxIt worked one minute and not the next03:21
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, you're sure the gateway is usable as a DNS?03:22
KenbWhelp I suppose. I will have to go find a website showing how to completely remove Burg and reinstall grub2 which I know is very so much fun. Oh well if it blows away Ubuntu, I can probably recover from the DVD I hope.03:22
hkrrsxcluelessperson: It's worked on mine03:23
boringping timeout03:23
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, it works now, I just had to reset network twice03:26
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, interesting, no one in teamspeak noticed the interuptions03:26
hkrrsxOdd that you had to do so twice03:26
cluelesspersonnice.03:26
hkrrsxcluelessperson: You had UFW started earlier on03:27
hkrrsxPerhaps you can start it back up again03:27
hkrrsxYou said that you wanted internal network protection03:27
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, I understand that no one can connect on a port that nothing is listening on03:28
hkrrsxcluelessperson: Precisely03:28
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, but I like to keep all ports that I don't personally use closed03:28
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, So if something happened to be installed accidentally, or without my knowledge, or something was broken, only the ports I want open are open03:29
cluelesspersongood luck getting in on 22, 80, 3306. :P03:29
cluelesspersonor 998703:29
hkrrsxThat's a good security practice03:29
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, so since we set the dns to 192.168.0.1 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.403:34
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, I guess the dns nameservers my isp gave me were incorrect and that was producing these issues/03:34
hkrrsxcluelessperson: actually, your gateway/router is reaching out to the ISP's DNS servers which is why using 192.168.0.1 as a nameserver works at all03:35
hkrrsxcluelessperson: You can leave 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4 as backups in case your ISP's name servers should fail03:35
hkrrsxcluelessperson: having backup name servers is also a good practice :)03:36
hkrrsx... and to answer the question you actually asked, 192.168.0.1 also allows you to reach the resources on yuro local network, whereas Google or your local ISP's DNS are public03:38

cluelesspersonhkrrsx, I need to confirm my dual core processor is utilizing all its virtual cores05:11
cluelesspersonhkrrsx, It's appearing as two cpus05:11

k1l(if you want to know what happend)08:40
Dashellcan you elaborate?08:41
k1lDashell: you said you want to know what happend so it stopped working. dmesg lists system messages since boot. to type "dmesg" into terminal and see what error happend08:46
Dashelli did but i guess i thought i was looking for something specific... and i mean it's been going on SINCE i rebooted08:47
k1lofcourse you can look into the xorg.log too08:48

mllllwhat is defference between ubuntu and lubuntu?10:10
iptableDashell, have you tried apt-get -f install, as suggested?10:10
cfhowlett!flavors | mllll10:10
ubottumllll: !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.10:10
k1l!lubuntu | mllll10:10
ubottumllll: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support.10:10
iptablemllll, ubuntu is ubuntu with unity UI shell, lubuntu uses LXDE UI10:10

mlllltanks10:11
iptableedition, I believe your problem is playing mp4 high encoded videos on dual-core celeron, not the graphics driver, but it's just a guess atm10:11

buntuergreetings ubuntuers10:15
buntuerhow are you10:15
buntueri have a simple question10:15
buntuerif someone can help10:15
iptablebuntuer, ask10:15
buntueri updated ubuntu from 12 to 1410:15
OerHeksbuntuer, all in one line please10:16
iptablebuntuer, and stop pressing ENTER every half sentence please!10:16
buntuerand now i'm not able to list files on the other paritions10:16
buntuerI'm sorry10:16
iptablebuntuer, how are you trying to list files? what other partitions? are they mounted?10:16
buntueryes the nautilus is able to see all the files but not in the terminal10:17
yossarianukhi is 15.04 going to run unity8  by default ?10:17
buntuerin terminal i'm using this command cd /media/DRIVE\ 2/10:17
OerHeksyossarianuk, no, unity 7.4 AFAIK10:17
iptablebuntuer, so you are trying to browse shares mounted by nautilus in command prompt?10:18
editionhttp://www.pasteall.org/5770610:18
buntueryes exactly i was able to do it with the older version of ubuntu before update and since i updated 14 it sucks10:18
yossarianukOerHeks: cheers - so does that mean 15.10 will have it as default ?10:18
buntuerwhen i make ls in DRIVE 2 it list nothing at all10:19
yossarianukbuntuer: In my experience use dolphin (the KDE file manager) for accessing network shares (it works in unity also..) - this may not be popular here....10:19
=== anonymous_ is now known as T0V3RL4N1
buntueri thought that using gksudo nautilus and change the permissions for the drives to my user name will fix the situation but it didn't10:20
OerHeksbuntuer, try: ls -la # to show all files for all users10:20
iptableedition, is Valley View even 3d-accelerated? looks like you are running HW that is slightly too old for latest h264 encodes. try older divx/xvid .avi videos, see if you can play those, to confirm.10:20
buntuerthis is what i get bash: cd: /media/DRIVE 2/ls: No such file or directory10:21

OerHeksbuntuer, ah, you have a space in the drive name?10:25
OerHeksbuntuer, i really never understood that space in name thing.10:25
buntuerit doesn't matter10:25
OerHeksbuntuer, yes it does, cd /media/DRIVE 2 does not work10:26
iptablebuntuer, cd /media/DRIVE\ 210:26

arcskyM +46 73 2365 34610:34
zetherooIn Ubuntu 14.04 does one still have to edit the smb.conf file to get file sharing to work between Ubuntu and Windows machines?10:34
arcskyups10:34
arcskyi mean sudo restart10:34
iptablezetheroo, you can use the GUI10:35
zetherooFor example... I have 2 Ubuntu 14.04 laptops here on the home network - both have their Public folders shared via the right-click menu (Sharing Options), but when going to browse the network neither of the laptops are visible to each other10:36
zetherooI tried using that Samba config GUI tool but that doesn;t work either10:36
zetherooshares are created but computers cannot see one another in the Network browsing10:36
iptablezetheroo, how about the official method: right-click on a directory, click "Sharing", tick the "share" tickbox10:37
iptablezetheroo, forget about browsing, from windows connnect to \\1.1.1.1 (replace with IP of your linux box)10:37
m1dnight_guys, I just noticed that my ssh config file always points to the public key on my client side10:37
zetherooiptable: that the aforementioned method I used ... "Sharing options" in the right-click menu ... no!?10:37
m1dnight_shouldnt this be the private key?10:37
iptablezetheroo, to connect from ubuntu to windows, connect to location "smb://1.1.1.1" (still, replace location10:38
iptablezetheroo, and the bit when I said forget about browsing network, connect straight to IP?10:38
iptablezetheroo, forget about browsing, from windows connnect to \\1.1.1.1 (replace with IP of your linux box)10:39
zetherooiptable: I shouldn't have to input the IP address every time ... no!?10:39
iptablezetheroo, please try it to see if sharing works!?!10:39
iptablezetheroo, makes sense to troubleshoot one thing at a time, no?10:39
zetheroook10:39
editionyes, the playback is improved for videos using the AVI format.10:40
zetherooiptable: with trying with the IP I get some Dbus error10:41
zetherooMountpoint already registered10:41
iptablezetheroo, I thought you are connecting from windows to ubuntu share?10:41
zetheroono10:41
zetherooUbuntu and Windows machines on the network10:41
iptablezetheroo, so why are you sharing a directory on ubuntu if you are not connecting to an ubuntu share?10:42
zetheroo(12:36:09 PM) zetheroo: For example... I have 2 Ubuntu 14.04 laptops here on the home network - ....10:42
iptablezetheroo> In Ubuntu 14.04 does one still have to edit the smb.conf file to get file sharing to work between Ubuntu and Windows machines?10:42
iptableif we are bout to quote10:42
iptableok, so you want to share between 2 ubuntu machines?10:42
iptableno windows anymore?10:42
zetherooyes, and then I went on to ask about an example of using 2 Ubuntu machines ...10:42
zetherooBut the same issue is there with Windows and Ubuntu on the same network as well10:43
iptablezetheroo, you need to decide what you want help with10:43
iptablezetheroo, can you try to connect to ubuntu share from a widnows machine, by going to \\IP on windows?10:43
zetheroowell, these machines cannot see each other Ubuntu to Ubuntu or Windows to Ubuntu or Ubuntu to Windows10:43
zetheroofor now I am dealing with the 2 Ubuntu machiens10:44
iptablezetheroo, see each other?10:44
zetherooshould be the easiest to get going ... I would think10:44
iptablezetheroo, can they ping each other?10:44
zetherooIn browsing for Network devices10:44
zetherooping works10:44
iptablezetheroo, ok, please do me a favour. forget about network browsing. please. that's another part, not smb itself, to advertise the machine. you need to get the network shares to work first. and navigate by IP to make sure they do work.10:45
zetherooI keep reading people saying one has to still edit that smb.conf file ... but I cannot believe that is still the case now ..10:45
iptablezetheroo, once that works, we can play with network discovery, which is something else altogether10:45
iptablezetheroo, right-click and share a directory on one ubuntu machine. on another one, in nautilus, navigate to smb://IP10:46
zetheroobut this is where I have trouble ... because this is supposed to work for people who are all about right-click and share ... no!?10:46
iptablezetheroo, yes, works for me10:46
zetheroook, that works ...10:47
zetheroosmb://IP/10:47
zetheroogets me to the machine and all the shares10:47
iptablezetheroo, so you cna browse shares, can you go to that shared dir and see it?10:47
iptablezetheroo, i.e. can you actually access a share?10:47
zetherooyes10:47
iptablezetheroo, ok, so sharing works.10:48
iptablezetheroo, I can't remember which, but a completely another component is needed for network SMB discovery10:48
zetheroook10:49
zetheroothe strange thing is that for some Linux machines Net discovery seems to work right away10:49
iptablezetheroo, nmbd10:49
zetheroolike I have another Lubuntu 14.04 laptop and it's on the network10:49
zetherooactually 2 Lubuntu laptops and both are on the network everywhere ... Windows and Linux10:50
iptablezetheroo, make sure nmbd is installed and works. also make sure that DNS settings are the same, as network discovery dependso n bcast name resolving10:50
zetherooUnable to locate package nmbd10:51
iptablezetheroo, nmbd is the process...10:51
iptablezetheroo, is it running?10:52
Dashellhey is kll still here?10:52
daduhmmm10:52
zetheroostatus shows : nmbd start/running, process 206510:53
Dashellwell if kll comes back, i fixed the screen issue10:53
zetherooits running on both Ubuntu 14.04 laptops10:53
Dashellfinally logged out of cinnamon, still having graphic problems but... at least now I can read everything10:53
zetherooiptable: ^10:53
iptablezetheroo, do you have a firewall enabled on those?10:54
zetherooiptable: both Ubuntu 14.04 laptops can see other machines on the network ... just not each other10:54
iptablezetheroo, you need Wins and NetBIOS for network discovery to work10:54
zetherooiptable: not that I know of10:54
zetherooiptable: I didn't set anything up ... is there a default one?10:54
iptablezetheroo, they can see each other, they are just not advertising the shares to the network10:54
iptablezetheroo, check with iptables -L -vn. any rules?10:55
baracudehi10:55
iptablezetheroo, also, check smb.conf to ensure that public=yes and browsable=yes in the share configs10:55
bogdanhi guys. i have a little issue. i downloaded google chrome from its website and i wanted to install it with software center. i press install and i see the installation progress but when is done insteed of showing me remove button it shows me install. like it is not installed yet. but if i search for google chrome in dash i can see it there10:56
zetherooiptables: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10760736/10:56
OerHeksbogdan, known issue, happened here too, chrome deb succesfully added their ppa.10:56
=== jpphelps is now known as oligo
OerHeksbogdan, don't worry, have fun10:57
zetherooiptables: I was afraid i would have to look at that file :D10:57
iptablezetheroo, check smb.conf to ensure that public=yes and browsable=yes in the share configs ; THEN check that smb.conf has WINS server enabled. Welcome to Microsoft protocols, where you need cifs, wins, netbios to work :/10:57
EightynineHi. Yesterday I got update to Gnome 3.12 and package manager showed that there are packages that not needed anymore(they were Gnome 3.10 packages). I wrote apt-get autoremove as package manager said, no bugs but Update manager disappeared. It's not handy to go to terminal to install updates every time. How to fix it?10:57
bogdancan you pls tell me what that means? chrome deb succesfully added their ppa? what is ppa? sry dont get upset but im new with linux i just installed it for the 1st time10:58
iptablezetheroo, in any case, sharing works, and machines see each other as you can access them via IP. Only network discovery/advertising doesn't work. that's different.10:58
zetherooiptables: where should what be changed? http://paste.ubuntu.com/10760744/10:58
iptablebogdan, ppa is a very nice ubuntu way of storing 3rd-party dependencies10:58
iptableblah10:58
iptablebogdan, ppa is a very nice ubuntu way of storing 3rd-party packages/repositories10:59
OerHeksbogdan, the .deb from the google site is just a ppa, not the actual chrome. this behaviour is a bug, but not a real error.10:59
EightyninePPA is something like user's repository from where you can install software.10:59
zetheroosharing is only as good as the access to the share ... :P10:59
iptablezetheroo, ctrl+f, seach for "wins" :P10:59
bogdanah ok guys thx. if i restart my laptop and log in again should it disappear?10:59
iptablezetheroo, wins support = no, change to yes, uncomment10:59
zetheroo#   wins support = no10:59
zetheroook10:59
OerHeksbogdan, no need to restart i guess11:00
bogdanOerHeks, ok thx11:00
EightynineWhat about my question?11:00
zetherooiptable: so basically samba still is in need of a comprehensive GUI management tool ...11:00
iptablezetheroo, also, at the end under eery share: [Pictures] [Videos] etc, that you created, uncomment (or add if required) browseable = yes AND public = yes (2 lines, public an browseable)11:01
iptablezetheroo, not really, most people just use ip to connect11:01
zetherooah ok11:01
iptablean bookmark it11:01
iptableno need to use network places. bookmarks are so much better11:01
kokutHello, i used to be able to access my windows machine in the network but now i can't it says "Unable to access location: Failed to retrieve share list from server: Connection timed out." Is there anything i can do?11:02
iptablezetheroo, once edited, service smbd restart ; service nmbd restart11:02
iptableor whatever they are called11:02
zetherooiptable: really? but with DHCP networks IP's can change all the time ...11:02
iptablezetheroo, they normally don't.11:02
iptablezetheroo, machines that run out of DHCP will ask for lease again and will normally get the same IP. Most routers have sticky IPs on DHCP as well for machines that are off overnight.11:03
zetherooiptable: I get a lot of people over from Windows to Linux ... and usually over to Ubuntu ... and it's once of the nagging issues they face most of the time ..11:03
zetheroojust simply sharing from one machine to another - via the GUI11:03
iptablezetheroo, ay, windows people wanting to move to linux and still use their windows ways11:04
bogdanOerHeks, i found out that infact that thing is really an error11:04
zetherooiptables: well yes :)11:04
bogdanOerHeks, my chrome wont start cuz of an unespected error11:04
iptablezetheroo, it works, just need IP or local name (if your router supports names for dhcp)11:04
=== michael__ is now known as Guest43672
iptablezetheroo, I can connect to most my shares using the machine names instead of IP as well11:04
=== Guest43672 is now known as ScoobiesPhD
zetherooas soon as I say  to then "well you have to go edit that config file" or "you have to manually enter in an IP to get it to work" they are like ... "WHAT!?!?"11:05
zetherooIt's a bit archaic really11:05
iptablezetheroo, and that's what I would tell them to do, not to rely on brose windows network. between ubuntu and ubuntu, they should probably use scp/sftp/webdav for sharing too, cifs/smb is windows tbh11:05
iptablezetheroo, or nfs, windows supports it too, but then they could not right-clik and click share11:05
zetherooby now Ubuntu should really have a fully comprehensive solution for network sharing without the need to mess in the terminal11:05
iptablezetheroo, uhm, my linux users, when I tell them that they can't just copy files between 2 machines using a proxy in between with a single ssh command , are like, what? what's archaic really11:06
chotaz`workHow do I create a "shortcut" to a specific folder to use in terminal? Example: instead of 'gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/somesite.conf' id like to use something shorter for the folder path11:06
zetherooyeah, NFS is not cool either for starter users ...11:06
iptablezetheroo, but now windows should have a comprehensive solution11:06
rblsthello all, i have a mobile internet modem that creates a wired network, but it is disabled (greyed out) in NetworkManager, 12.04 LTS; how to enable it?11:07
iptablechotaz`work, alias something="something longer"11:07
bogdanif i do sudo apt-get autoremoveit will remove all the files that i dont need?11:07
zetherooiptable: Windows sharing works pretty well. (Windows 7 at least)11:07
iptablebogdan, theoretically11:07
MonkeyDustchotaz`work  use ln -s to create a symbolic link of the file you want to edit11:07
bogdaniptable, so it wont harm anything that command11:08
chotaz`workMonkeyDust, thanks but iptable's solution seems to be more fititng, as I want to ease the access to the folder itself and not the file.11:08
iptablezetheroo, when you can connect to an scp/sftp share from windows out of the box, you can complain that ubuntu's cifs/smb windows sharing implementation doesn't work properly :P11:08
StanDarshzetheroo: I feel you dawg.11:08
iptablebogdan, it shouldn't11:08
=== BOHverkill_ is now known as BOHverkill
zetherooiptable: no but it's about Ubuntu/Linux sharing in general11:08
iptablezetheroo, yes, it would be nice if it was enabled b default, but it's not. they can use their machine names, IPs, or another sharing solution11:08
iptablezetheroo, or create a script that will magically fix it for them11:09
iptablezetheroo, or they can use owncloud/dropbox like most people nowadays11:09
zetherooiptable: I wouldn't really care about samba if there was a comprehensive GUI solution for NFS11:09
zetherooUbuntu/Linux is still far behind Windows and MacOS in this regard IMHO ... and Linux is supposed to be the king at networking on top of that :D11:10
itryHello! I have a cheap web hosting account that seems to be accessible via https but has no trusted certificate. It uses some generic certificate of the hosting company. Is it safe to access it from an interenet cafe? I know the IP is correct.11:11
iptablezetheroo, you are failingto see the point. windows cannot browse scp shares. windows is behind11:11
iptablezetheroo, let's add apple devices to equasion11:11
zetheroo iptable: but home users don;t care about SCP11:11
iptablezetheroo, linux is not behind, it does things differently. live with it, or create a workaround11:11
zetherooand Ubuntu is primarily for Desktop users11:11
iptablezetheroo, my mom uses scp to copy pictures to me!11:11
iptablezetheroo, over internet!11:12
zetheroo iptable: and she set it up herself?11:12
iptablean she is a nursery supervisor11:12
zetheroosmart mom ;)11:12
iptablezetheroo, I told her how to11:12
zetherooyep11:12
iptablezetheroo, but then again, I had to tell her how to browse windows shares as well11:12
zetherooand that's over the Internet ... so that makes sense11:12
iptablezetheroo, not a single one of those users figured out how to browse windows shares, they were told. enough of this now please11:13
iptablezetheroo, more on11:13
iptablezetheroo, windows is behind with over internet sharing :P11:13
zetheroook, but I am not talking about Internet sharing11:13
zetheroojust simple home networks11:13
iptablezetheroo, enough11:13
zetheroowould be great as a start :)11:13
littlebithi poeple, how do I include variables like $1 in executing shell comands in my shell script?11:13
MonkeyDustidd, there's no gui for nfs, been seaching a bit11:14

zetherooMonkeyDust:  I have been dealing with the same networking scenario in Ubuntu since 2006 .. when I switched to Ubuntu ...11:15
* iptable goes to get a coffee11:16
MonkeyDustzetheroo  this guy is a bit cynical: "Gee, NFS requires only TWO lines of configuration - one line on the server and one line on the client. That is why there aren't any wizards for it, since wizards just make it more difficult... "11:17
zetherooHA!11:17
zetheroo:D11:17
zetherooSome people forget that there is a HUGE world out there of people who have never configured anything in a command prompt or config file .... but, right, GUI's make life harder ... they say :D11:18

iptableyou want it as an embedded-light-webserver-page-GUI or as a gnome-one?11:25
iptableshould not be hard to ask for 2 locations with a brose button :/11:25
zetherooawesome ... :)11:26
zetherooUnity/Gnome I would prefer11:26
iptablezetheroo, ping me by end of April11:26
zetheroohaha ... for real?11:26
iptablewhy not11:27
zetherooI dunno ... if it were that easy why hasn't it already been done?11:27
iptableit won't look super flashy. I am in no way a graphics designer11:27
iptablecause no one could be bothered?11:27
iptableit's a simple file-alteration with service-restart11:27
zetheroook - I would rather a GUI that sorts out the samba options in detail though :D11:28
zetheroolike enable WINS without editing the config11:28
iptablezetheroo, for that you don't need a GUI. you just need a daemon that monitors the smb.conf file and fixes if/as required when it changes11:30
iptablezetheroo, please check and confirm which option change in smb.conf makes it work for you and I'll code a workaround daemon for you11:31
iptablezetheroo, once you know which options, PM (private-message) me and I'll glue it for you when I am back in front of my machine. Leave contact details if you are not on IRC most of the time.11:31
StanDarshI think zetheroo is thinking that it's backward to be forced to edit a config file rather than select radio buttons in a GUI.11:32
StanDarshWould have a hard time disagreeing with that.11:32
zetherooiptable: thanks ... still trying to get it working actually ...11:32
iptableStanDarsh, well, tbh, I agree that if you are doing cifs shares via GUI, but default network discovery via netbios should be enabled, not disabled. I can build a workaround.11:33
iptableStanDarsh, then again, we should encourage people to learn how their computers works11:33
zetherooto get the net discovery to work do I need to reboot the machiens?11:34
iptablezetheroo, cool. I'm off for a break then. PM once you fiure it out (browsable|public setting OR the wins server setting OR all of them needed)11:34

svalohello everybody, I'd like to know id there's a way to install ubuntu without creating a user, I have a ldap auth system with /home mounted remotely12:00
Fuchssvalo: technically yes, you could set up things like sssd during install or modify a live system to do that, but it is a massive pain in the rear end12:05
=== roko is now known as rokogei
Fuchssvalo: especially since I assume you have to take the machine into the directory before you can authenticate against ldap (is that an active directory?) anyway, so having a local user at first helps12:05

=== Jean is now known as Guest54050
svaloFuchs, thanks, yes I should setup few things before I can authenticate, including the script that mounts the partition12:08
=== mrwheels is now known as x85
Fuchssvalo: we here  (active directory, sssd, ...) use a local admin user that has a name which isn't in the LDAP  (else you'll have loads of fun) that we use to initially take the machine into the directory / set up kerberos etc.12:08
emilspsvalo, yeah, we use a tester-local user on all machines12:09
Fuchssvalo: it would be possible without, but it's a massive pain in the rear and I honestly can't recommend it. But it is feasible. We use a slight ubuntu respin which at least already provides the needed packages, of course you could put a configuration on it as well. If you use kerberos as well, you need a keytab though. And I wouldn't recommend either auto-creating nor distributing that.12:09
Fuchssvalo: if you want to automate it: I know it is possible, the Uni here did it, but it's a bit painful. The biggest issue is usually the machine keytab, which needs either a domain admin or at least someone with admin rights on the OU you put the machine in. The rest is rather easy to distribute via a ubuntu respin  (and, I recommend, your own custom repo which is activated in that respin)12:11
svaloFuchs, emilsp, ok, I was reading about oem install that sounds interesting, the only downside woul'd be to disable the user wizard that appears after installing ubuntu. I don't have kerberos auth12:11
Fuchssvalo: the machine tab could be done if you used something like forman or cobbler to set the machines up, or something like ansible/salt/puppet to provide machine configurations. But still: it will be a bit of a pain12:12
svaloFuchs, ok so I'll opt for normal installation and then remove the user and relative home folder....12:12

emilspknob, qemu is so nice, especially because of libvirtd and all the nice userspace tools.13:27
Meinskurhow do I cancel the installation when it's stuck (ubuntu)13:27
emilspMeinskur, at what stage has it stuck ?13:27
emilspMeinskur, if you haven't done anything to the partitions yet, just reboot13:27
Meinskuri just alloctated drive space, and it got stuck when I pressed "install Now"13:28
emilspdid you allocate or did you already start writing partition data to the drive?13:28
MeinskurI think I just allocated (new to linux and OS installations)13:29
emilspthen you should be safe to reboot13:29
emilspbut before you do, press ctrl+alt+F1 or whichever f button13:29
Meinskurok, ctrl+alt+f1 did something13:30
MeinskurI have a command screen thing now13:30
Meinskurnot sure what it's called13:30
emilspif you see a terminal, type top and see whether or not there is a process that's taking up a lot of cpu and memory13:30
emilspsince you switched to a different tty, your system isn't totaly hung up yet :)13:31
Meinskurroot seems to take around 30%13:31
emilsproot is the user name, what's the process name ?13:32
Meinskurnot sure how I see that13:32
MeinskurHow to I get back out of this?13:32
emilsptype q13:32
emilspand you should be able to see that in top13:32
Meinskurq: command not found13:33
emilspoh, how to get back to the gui installation ? ctrl+alt+f7 or f813:33
Meinskurhmm... I don't know how I see the name of the process13:34
emilspmaybe the resolution is too low, so you must use arrow keys to move to the left13:35
Meinskurthe resolution don't seem to low, I can see the whole screen13:35
emilspyes, but if you run top in the terminal, you should be able to see the command names on the leftmost collumn13:36
MeinskurPID?13:36
emilspsorry, rightmost collumn, COMMAND13:36
MeinskurOH! xD13:36
Meinskuri'ts called Xorg13:36
Meinskurand ntfsresize13:37
emilspso you're already resizing your windows partition and this will take a while13:37
Meinskuroh, so it's not "stuck" it's just working?13:37
emilspthus under no circumstances should you reboot, because you most likely will lose data13:38
emilspMeinskur, hopefully :)13:38
MeinskurI don't care to keep any data that I had on my laptop13:38
Meinskurbut I just did an along side installation just in case13:38
emilspwell, then you could've just nuked the windows partition, but anyways, resizing partitions usually takes a lot of time, thus you're better off waiting this one out13:38
Meinskurawesome, I'll wait it out then :)13:39
Meinskurwill you be here for a while?13:39

ubuntuser13Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library. using the fallback 'C' locale. unable to test app in my Language.please help.13:42
emilspI am pretty sure you'll have to wait for ubuntu to update their drivers, using 'nonrepo' drivers will break your system upon kernel users.13:43
Meinskurhmm...13:43
davevanloo@emilsp was this pointed at user13? or me? :)13:43
emilspyou, davevanloo13:44
MeinskurI just noticed that the allocation GUI shows Windows 7, But i have windows Vista on here, not sure if that does matter or not13:44
emilspMeinskur, doesn't matter, the bootloader thinks my girlfriend has vista, whilst she's using windows 7, they're just too similar13:44
Meinskurawesome13:44
davevanloo@emilsp would correctly building the drivers provided by the nvidia website perhaps work? as according the them they should be able to drive my cards13:45
zetherooI finally found out what is needed in smb.conf to get this going :D13:45
MeinskurIT WASN'T STUCK!! :d13:45
emilspdevanloo, yes, for the time being, but you'll have to make sure you rebuild the drivers every time you get a kernel update13:46
emilspsorry, davevanloo, screwed up your name13:46
davevanlooooh yes.. i had read about that.. emilsp , its annoying to do.. having to exit the x-server to do so.. its disorienting when trying to do on the fly aswel! but then again.. everything pc.. preparation is key! ^13:47
emilspdavevanloo, well, it is rather simple, actually, and well, when I was doing it, I didn't kill the X server, I just reran the install script provided by Nvidia and it worked. You just have to remember to do it after a kernel update.13:48
emilspotherwise you'll be left with a dark shell upon the next reboot and you'll have to install the driver again.13:48
davevanloomhmm, i did try building it manually on my old system and it failed, exually both with and without the xserver started.., that was before i found out about the apt-get ***-current way of installing it13:49
davevanlooops forgot name emilsp13:49
emilspdon't worry :) well, I haven't used ubuntu in a while, at least I haven't had to upgrade nvidias drivers on ubuntu for a while, so things might've changed.13:50
ollehi, i am looking for the #backbox channel13:50
olleCan someone point me in the right direction13:50
emilspdavevanloo, I remember I had to make sure that the new kernel headers are actually there.13:50
davevanloomhmm, still rather noobish about some linux/ubuntu things, could you explain a bit more on how to make sure my kernel headers are ecrtually there?13:51
davevanlooemilsp ^13:52
emilspdavevanloo, check sudo apt-get install linux-headers and select your current version13:52
emilspdavevanloo, I am sure there should be some documentation from ubuntu on how to use 'out of tree'/out of repo nvidia drivers13:53
zetherooiptables: you around perchance?13:53
davevanloooke.., feeling really noobish for asking..,but better then fra**ing up, how do i find my version?13:54
emilspdavevanloo, don't feel bad about yourself just because you don't know something, and installing headers won't hurt you, but the correct command is uname -a13:55

zh1emilsp, yes but i never tried it, i think gonna give it a go, but i have to install it and remove lxde, right?14:11
emilspzh1, I think your best bet would be to install ubuntu-minimal and then install only the stuff you need, if you want to be frugal14:13
zh1emilsp i'm trying the lowest i can get cause i only wanna use 500mb and still use cisco packet tracer14:13

zh1emilsp i will need a desktop environment of some sort i guess14:14
emilspBluesKaj, I am talking about a window manager14:14
emilspzh1, you'll need a window manager, a desktop environment is heavy14:14
zh1emilsp will cisco packet tracer run with just a win manager?14:15
emilspzh1, yes14:15

bparkerwhen I try to eject an SD card through the file manager, it warns me that data is still being written (I doubt it but whatever), and to not unmount it yet. but then when you click ok, it unmounts it anyway. What's going on?14:37
bparkerif data were still being written, how can it unmount it?14:38
bparkerand a lot of times I will notice the busy light keeps blinking on the card reader for about a minute or so after it unmounts... so if it's still writing even after it's "unmounted", how do I know when it's safe to disconnect?14:38

ikoniab3n_123: why would you even want to do this ?16:24
Kabyhi Edico16:24
b3n_123because in the event Ubuntu gets corrupted, I still have my sdk ..16:24
area51pilotdoes anyone know where the bluetooth device pairings are stored?16:25
ikoniab3n_123: the sdk is just a package16:25
ikoniayou can re-download it in seconds16:25
ikoniathat makes no sense16:25
geniib3n_123: The main problem with moving linux binary files to a non-linux partition is the properties of the files cannot always be preserved, depending upon the filesystem you are moving it to. So for instance the system will no longer know that the files are able to be executed as programs. Also file ownership may also come into play.16:25
b3n_123yes I also experienced that ownership problem .. and executable files became non-exec when I moved sdk to other partition .. so I will not do it again then16:26
b3n_123but what filesystem does it support (moving such files like sdk) ?16:27
ikoniab3n_123: why are you doing this  ?16:27
ikoniab3n_123: you are creating a problem16:27
b3n_123I'm doing this to free more linux spaces16:28
b3n_123just thinking if it's possible16:28

ikoniab3n_123: you are causing a problem16:30
b3n_123no .. Java SDK will remain in Linux but Eclipse project in my other non-linux partition16:31

mentocI'm having a situation where my mouse and keyboard (USB) no longer work. They work in my BIOS configuration screen and the mouse lights up during the boot up process, but once the desktop manager comes up, nothing. They don't supply any input whatsoever17:31
SchrodingersScatbepolite: if you want something newer than offered by ubuntu, you can try their site or a ppa, both get you less support for it, since you're going off on your own.17:31

mchelen1bepolite, i use the one from the eclipse website17:31

mchelen1bepolite, there are a bunch of versions to choose from tho17:32
geniimentoc: Are they connected with cords to the usb ports, or is there a wireless adapter that plugs into the usb and then the keyboard and mouse connect to that?17:32
mentocgenii: they connect via cords. I tried other USB ports as well but to no avail17:32
bepoliteWell mchelen1 I guess I'll chose the first one.17:33
bepolitei just need eclipse for android17:33
mentocI'm using said keyboard and mouse right now. they only work now because I'm on a live cd17:33

ioriaaladiah,  lspci -k | grep Network -A  517:40
baxxmchelen1: it went corrupted on me, thought that I'd see what else was out there17:41
baxxmaybe it was a one off - is that what everyone uses?17:41
aladiahioria: results for lspci -k | grep Network -A  5  are   http://paste.ubuntu.com/10764511/17:41
mchelen1baxx, ah i had that problem once, i tried to do more frequent "full" backups instead of diff17:42
baxxmchelen1: yeah it's not ideal in a back up is it :P are you still using it then?17:42
mchelen1baxx, you can do a straight rsync, with a gui if you want, it won't save file history tho17:42
acz32ianorlin: so i can install the LTS 14.04 and if i want newer versions, can upgrade to 15.05 using the package manager and not having to re-install17:43
baxxmchelen1: what about backing up installed repos etc17:43
ioriaaladiah,  maybe you have to reinstall your Broadcom driver17:43
mchelen1baxx, rsync /etc/apt ?17:43
aladiahioria can you handle me with that step ? i dont remember ho wi did it last time i installe this lubuntu 14.1017:43
mchelen1baxx, i use a few tools to backup to various places, but usually just my /home and dont worry about repos (i dont have many installed tho)17:43
baxxmchelen1: never heard of that method, I've been ttrying to use dpkg for it17:44
aladiahioria : is normal Lubuntu 14.10 take too long to awake from hibernate state ?17:44
SCHAAP13715.04 is due end of the month right?17:44
baxxmchelen1: /home would work for me i think... then If I had a tool that checked all my git repos and a script for my installed packages I'd probably be set!17:44
mchelen1baxx, well all the repos are store in /etc/apt17:44
mjuszczakPici: OK17:45
mchelen1baxx, there is some tool that does package lists, i forget the name tho17:45
ioriaaladiah, don't know :-) i got problem with suspend in  14.0417:45
baxxmchelen1: I have tried this http://paste.ubuntu.com/10764571/17:46
aladiahioria: software&updates then drivers ?17:46
ianorlinacz32: 15.04 isn't quite out yet but yes you should be able to but I think you will need an intemediate step in 14.10 then to 15.0417:46
mchelen1baxx, ah yeah dpkg might be the simplest option. does that work ok?17:46
kartSCHAAP137: Apr 23 is the date i think17:46
SCHAAP137cool, looking forward to it17:47
aladiahiori: you dont know how to reisntall my broadcom driver ?17:47

SCHAAP137moved from GNOME-flashback to MATE a few days ago17:47
kartRC is out by the 16th though17:47
baxxmchelen1: do you just rsync /home then? Do you have snapshots of them?17:47
SCHAAP137excellent move17:47
mchelen1baxx, i rsync /home and use deja dup17:47
karthow's MATE in general ? havent got a chance to play with it yet17:47
SonikkuAmericaSCHAAP137: Glad you like it. Are you using the now-official flavor?17:47
baxxmchelen1: fair, so you use them in unison17:48
baxxmchelen1: and no snapshots of the rsync, just the most up to date version there17:48
mchelen1baxx, yup, rsync goes to a network drive, and deja dup encrypts & backs up to S317:48
ioriaaladiah, no,  you should sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source and then open Additional driver and  reboot, ... but you said that  wifi is working ...17:48
SCHAAP137i believe so SonikkuAmerica, 14.1017:48
baxxmchelen1: do you check their integrity?17:48
mchelen1baxx, yup the rsync is only latest version, while deja has version history17:48
SCHAAP137MATE version 1.8.117:48

aladiahioria how about resintall blueman ?17:49
SonikkuAmericaSCHAAP137: That won't be officially supported by the way... if you want "real" official support grab a 15.04 daily (it's pretty stable)17:49
baxxmchelen1: is deja also just being run on /home?17:49
mchelen1baxx, i have the rsync do crc check and then i dont worry as much about deja17:49
MonkeyDustmmartinez  script in what coding language?17:49

mmartinezexpect17:50
SCHAAP137i'll do that when Intel releases their new GFX package, my first gen i5 integrated GFX depends on it for good OpenGL and stuff17:50
SCHAAP137but i will sure do that in the near future SonikkuAmerica17:50
mmartinez#bash17:50
baxxmchelen1: crc = checksum I'm guessing?17:50
mchelen1baxx, yup17:50
baxxmchelen1: cheers - do you have any starting points on a script for that? no worries if theres personal info in there I'll have a gander otherwise17:51
aladiahiori : i do that and ti says is already installed17:51
aladiah sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source17:51
ioriaaladiah, and in Additional drivers ?17:52
aladiahit is in using17:52
mchelen1baxx, the rsync script? it's dead simple, rsync -e ssh /home user@nas:/backups17:52
aladiahiori : it is in using17:52
mchelen1baxx, iirc the options are -a for archive, -c for checksum17:53
baxxmchelen1: and rsync handles the checksums from the soruce to the backups itself? You don't have to script an external md5 or something?17:53
mchelen1baxx, i think what it does is checksum the file before transferring, but actually im not sure if it checks afterwards17:54
baxxmchelen1: hmm... it'd be clever if it did17:55
mchelen1baxx, but presumably if you run it a 2nd time and the files have not changed, it will compare the local & remote checksums17:55
davevanlooallright, a few reboots later and everything is correctly oriented and performing as desired, thank you all for your help :)17:56
mchelen1baxx, oh i think rsync always does file checksums after transfer http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/30970/does-rsync-verify-files-copied-between-two-local-drives17:56

ikoniayou've already seen the chipset - someone told you to get that with lsusb17:58
aladiahi should research on wikipedia ?17:58
mchelen1baxx, np, good luck! i wish deja dup were a little more reliable, but having multiple backups is always a good idea17:58
aladiahikonia all of that chinese for me17:58
aladiahikonia thanks for your help17:59

ActionParsnipn473: FTP is awful and unsecure18:22
n473ActionParsnip: it does have an SSL section; for my purposes it will be used over PPTP anyway18:22
ANJ7sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set18:23
ANJ7what does that mean?18:23
ActionParsnipn473: install openssh-server and you have an SFTP service. Connect using your Ubuntu login account. Need more users? Just add an Ubuntu user.18:23
n473just seems odd that it would grant the "template" ftpuser the default shell /etc18:23
zerowaitstateANJ7: means the file owner needs to be root and the setuid permission bit on the executable file needs to be turned on18:24

=== zz_zz_AlphaTech is now known as AlphaTech
ANJ7oh, how can i resort that?18:24
n473ActionParsnip: my requirements are a bit more particular; the send hosts are Mikrotiks running RouterOS, and there are too many of them to warrant ssh/keypairs,etc.18:24
ActionParsnipANJ7: drop to root recovery and you can make the changes18:25
n473which makes ftp the option with the least administrative overhead18:25
ANJ7how to drop to root recovery?18:25
ActionParsnipn473: you don't have to use keys with SFTP or even  SSH.18:25
ANJ7I just chmod /usr/bin files18:25
ANJ7chmod 77718:25
n473oh SNAP18:25
ANJ7will I not be able to revert it back?18:26
ActionParsnipANJ7: reinstall. You have butchered your OS18:26
ANJ7wow,18:26
ActionParsnipANJ7: no feasibly. Why would you do that?18:26
ANJ7reinstall the os?18:26
ANJ7I just wanted to give permission to some files18:27
ANJ7now is there no other way?18:27
n473if you remember what those files were, and what their permissions were before you changed them18:27
ActionParsnipANJ7: unless you want to go through every file in a good install and make a note of the access then copy it individually to your install OS, you will need to reinstall18:27
n473you could change them back18:27
ActionParsnipANJ7: you don't need to give access to files in /usr/bin. They are delicate and purposeful.18:28
ActionParsnipANJ7: got a backup?18:28
ANJ7can I give them the sudo again?18:28
ANJ7nope18:28
ActionParsnipANJ7: then you are screwed18:28
ANJ7so reinstall is the only way?18:29
OerHeksvaluable lesson: chmod 777 is a bad idea. backup your data and reinstall18:29
ANJ7other than that long option18:29
ActionParsnipANJ7: plus throwing 777 round is stupid. It removes all security from the things you change, in this case the system binaries. Anyone or anything can make changes to the files unhindered18:29
n473ActionParsnip: as for using keys/etc, we could just go anonymous, but we need to retain the ability to differentiate between clients and, if need be, deny access individually18:29
ANJ7ok, fine. I'll reinstall the os18:30
n473and you can't automate askpass or expect functionality with RouterOS18:30

BigMacI have my mind running in multitask mode19:10
yorwosi wanna install a program "kompozer" (eg.this time its this) but then all instructions include manually installing some big lots of dependencies , is there any place with daily builds or something ? i mean is there a more proper way to installing this or other programs without having to install so many dependencies ? i might already have a newer version , this specific program is pretty old , i don't wanna break something else by accident19:10

unixnubis it bad practice to install stuff in /opt? I also have eclipse and chrome installed there19:10

mchelen1unixnub, you may need to remove the version you built yourself19:10

cjosephI'm having some trouble with cron on 14.04. I have a cron job in my normal (non-root) user's crontab that I added using 'crontab -e'. Its set to run every hour, and the syntax was verified using a syntax checker. /var/log/syslog shows my actions editing the crontab, but when the time goes by, the job never runs and nothing is logged to /var/log/syslog. If I grep a process list, I see 3 instances named 'cron' running.  How can I get bett20:00
tgm4883alesan: if you use network-manager, then on ubuntu you install network-manager-openconnect and network-manager-openconnect-gnome and you can configure it from the GUI. Not sure what that would be in kubuntu but it's a start20:01
alesanok sure thanks20:01
halfburnttoastcjoseph, mind pasting the cronjob here?20:01
alesanI will try20:01
alesanI really like KDE, that's why I use Kubuntu, instead of Gnome20:02
bpromptalesan:     so.... what's the story?    you want to connect to... something, using the kwin kde network manager?    kwin uses a plasmoid, a white icon onthe systray, for the frontend, and for the backend, uses just like ubuntu, NetworkManager daemon20:03

cjosephhalfburnttoast: yes, its a script I made. I can run it fine. I suspect cron can too, but I'm missing any/all logging to confirm or deny this.20:11
Johnoooh, hardware - ok thanks man :D20:11
=== mike_ is now known as Guest46232
halfburnttoastcjoseph, something to also try is replacing that cron with something like '47 *  *   *   *    logger "Cron program start" &&  /usr/local/sbin/doodler && logger "Cron program end"20:11
htqpstacks88: they indicate empty spaces at end of line, which would be 'invisible' otherwise20:11
halfburnttoastif you see "Cron program start" but not "Cron program end" in your syslog, you'll know it's the program itself that's not working20:12
halfburnttoastusually it's either a permissions issue or environment variables20:12
bprompttgm4883:   the plasmoid is just the frontend,    but uses NetworkManager, and that one logs    under /var/log/syslog.120:12
tgm4883bprompt: cool, so he should hopefully just need to add that network-manager-openconnect package and configure it20:13

naftilos76https://gist.github.com/anonymous/85c69ed190a931df781d20:25
halfburnttoastnaftilos76, does it need to be in the init.d? like, does it need to perform special operations depending on the runlevel?20:26
halfburnttoastor does it just need to be started at boot?20:26
ugurkoltukDerHeks: well, it seems like it does not http://paste.ubuntu.com/10766167/20:26
naftilos76Well, it is supposed to run on 3 where a normal system is run20:26
naftilos76i just applied the defaults with update-rc.d20:27
naftilos76that is not the problem (i think)20:27
genii!runlevels20:27
ubottuIn Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab.20:27
geniiHm20:27
OerHeksugurkoltuk, indeed.20:27
halfburnttoastit might also be better to just call it from the /etc/rc.local file20:27

halfburnttoastunless it really needs to do differetn things depending on the runlevel20:28
OerHeksugurkoltuk, same output when you insert a memorycard?20:28
ugurkoltukDerHeks: so that reader is physically problem?20:28
naftilos76I have taken a look at upstart tool, it just seemed easier to go with init.d20:28
ugurkoltukDerHeks: let me check but i'm afraid yes.20:28
naftilos76I mean there is nothing wrong with that! There are so many scripts in there20:28
naftilos76The thing is that it does not start on boot. That is my problem20:29
ugurkoltukDerHeks: exactly the same output http://paste.ubuntu.com/10766191/20:29
halfburnttoastnaftilos76, have you tried calling the daemon from /etc/rc.local ?20:29
OerHeksugurkoltuk, when i search for your chipset "SMBus: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series" + "cardreader" i see lots of bugreports.20:31
naftilos76halfburnttoast: Why are you avoiding commenting on anything regarding init.d scripts? No i did not try to trigger the daemons from rc.local . I will do that but the way i chose should work, right?20:31
naftilos76halfburnttoast: Is there anything wrong with init.d scripts?20:32
ugurkoltukDerHeks: well, i hope that's a sw issue then20:32
naftilos76halfburnttoast: It seems straightforward20:32
naftilos76Does anybody know if init.d scripts are initiated with a 'start' argument during boot?20:33
naftilos76This is my concern20:33
halfburnttoastwell, yes, that's why upstart and systemd are replacing them. They're difficult to manage, especially when it comes to the sequencing20:33
halfburnttoasti was just offering a solution that might work better20:33
naftilos76halfburnttoast: I am not complaining man. Thanks for that, i am just wondering why the script does not work on boot.20:34
halfburnttoastmy guess would be that there's a problem with sequencing. such as a required dameon that it needs that hasn't been started yet20:35
halfburnttoastit's hard to tell just from the description20:35

y7u3hkrrsx: there is a /public_html in it and there are buncha php files in it but I cannot locate the main index.html file20:38
halfburnttoastanyways, rc.local, by default, is called at the end of the runlevel's rc#.d/, so it should have everything loaded hopefully20:38
MonkeyDusty7u3  there's also #ubuntu-server20:39
hkrrsxy7u3: Is there supposed to be an index.html ?20:39
naftilos76i ll give it a try20:39
hkrrsxy7u3: Or is the main page supposed to be index.php ?20:39
y7u3hkrrsx: not sure :(20:39
y7u3hkrrsx: once I found the directory where the files are by using grep and the content ..but I forgot20:40
tewardy7u3: you should look at the configuration for the website itself to ID the directory the files are in20:40
tewardalso consider the index might not be HTML if it's a PHP site20:40
tewardPHP-driven site*20:41
y7u3okk teward20:41
tewards/HTML/pure HTML/20:41
halfburnttoastnaftilos76, ah, well I'm not sure what the recommended ubuntu way is anymore for making init scripts, but it's on the way out anyawys so there might not be a published method20:41
y7u3teward: do php have a main file ? like index.php ?20:42
naftilos76halfburnttoast: i just noticed that the sym links are 20. The should be 9920:42
tewardy7u3: depends on the site and the configuration20:42
halfburnttoastnaftilos76, but, for the time being, rc.local is still called at the end of the runlevel, thus everything should be loaded without needing to make a new init script20:42
ayahia56hi,i have wi-fi/bluetooth problem.20:42
tewardy7u3: as i said, you need to depend on the configuration file for your site, NOT the 'index file' assumption, as in nginx you can override the index page to be whatever.20:42
tewardy7u3: you have to first determine what web server is in use, then look at the configuration directory to determine the site files20:43
tewardy7u3: if it's apache2, then /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ contains the 'files' of the configuration for the sites - start looking at the configs to see what's served from where20:43
naftilos76halfburnttoast: When you do 'update-rc.d script defaults' can you define the SXX number?20:43
halfburnttoastnaftilos76, I believe so, i think the man page has examples in it for that20:46
naftilos76i saw the man page20:46
naftilos76i did that but the script still refuses to start on boot20:47

FlugzHello everyone! Just a quick question about kernel upgrades. I run 14.04, and to me it seems there's a kernel upgrade almost every week. Every time I upgrade there seems to be a minor hiccup, either with the fglrx driver, or my buggy RTL8111/8168/8411 network card. Now I have everything running perfectly on 3.13.0-48-generic. So the question is, do I actually need to upgrade the kernel version, or could I just lock it?21:18

willbradleyhiya friends. i just realized that i'm quite irritated by how sticky the resizing of windows is. it seems like it takes the cursor 10-20% of the screen before the window starts resizing, and then often it doesn't land underneath the cursor, but at some random offset. any ideas?21:26

MionGuest92551: fix your nick21:39
MionGuest92551: and just check temps with `sensors`21:40

Mionpzykotic: every time amd comes out with a new card it usually takes 6-9 months for the free drivers to be usable21:45

Mionskinux: sure21:50
jpdsskinux: Debian packaging is an art.21:50
Mionskinux: and you can make a .deb out of binary projects21:50

Mionspecially if you are on modern hardware that actually have things like sse3/4 etc21:53
skinuxWell, it'd probably take a while to compile it. Plus, I really doubt that would be anywhere near as easy as configure, make, make install for compiling.21:53
ki7rwwhat's going on with chrome? I must have had an update because it doesn't work properly on any of my boxes. for example, images don't render at foxnews.com anymore21:53
Mionskinux: again, you would package it as a deb so that you would not have to run that by hand21:54
Mionskinux: or you know, just install firefox from the ubuntu repos21:54
Mion>_>21:54
jpdsskinux: Erm, Ubuntu has a debian package for firefox?21:54
bekksskinux: Ubuntu ships a firefox package in its repos.21:55
skinuxMion: Well, I use PhpStorm Early Access Program releases, so I don't think there is even a PPA for it.21:55
Mionskinux: also if you use ppa then you won't actually have to compile the package as ppa does it for you21:55

HomelessSantaBen64, Basically implying that if I change the mirror it should appear. Well I'll have to see if that happens.22:56
HomelessSantabrb22:56
Ben64HomelessSanta: i'm guessing you have a vps through arpnetworks and the server came with that repository by default22:57
HomelessSantaBen64, Nah I don't even know how to use a VPN or VPS. I had to switch servers over the Main Server simply due to it wasn't working and the speeds I was getting were terrible at the time.22:57
HomelessSantaGoing to revert back to the Main Server to see if it at least gives me a package. If not I'd figure either use a PPA or manually grab it then install it.22:58
HomelessSantaBen64, Thanks a lot bud that seemed to have fixed the problem.22:59
Ben64HomelessSanta: well how did you find that random mirror22:59
HomelessSantaBen64, In "Software & Updates" you can select different servers aka mirrors. From the 'Download from' option when you click on Other.23:01
HomelessSantaCause sometimes the Main Server doesn't work, down for maintenance or is just general slow.23:02
upsideoutmemcache time ?23:02
Ben64HomelessSanta: next time check here :) https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors23:02
HomelessSantaBen64, Will do bud.23:03
HomelessSantabrb gotta update real quick.23:04
frank__hello all!23:04
frank__question: where does ubuntu's kwallet store it's info? does it at any time upload it somewhere?23:04
pbxfrank__, that's a KDE feature, not an ubuntu feature -- but AFAIK it is purely local.  people who want to have it sync probably use dropbox and a symlink.23:06
six_is this the ubuntu help channel or is there another channel for that?23:07
Ben64this is it23:07
ianorlinsix_ it is in the topic :)23:08
frank__pbx, thanks, actually I prefer it to be local23:08
HomelessSantaBen64, Thanks a lot bud just had to do some updating. :P23:08
frank__pbx, I don't trust "the cloud"23:09
Ben64!yay | HomelessSanta23:09
ubottuHomelessSanta: Glad you made it! :-)23:09
vitimitiThis PXE installation is too difficult for me, too bad23:09
HomelessSantaThere's a lot of little commands I wouldn't have known like that hehehe.23:09
six_I have a DLink DWL 520+ PCI adapter and ive read all the forum posts on it, and ive got it "working" with ndiswrapper but when i login it asks for the network password, despite network security is turned off, and when i try to fix that manually it just sits there and trys to connect then disconnects after about 60 seconds23:09

six_Oh im in Ubuntu 11.04 too23:14
Ben64six_: that version hasn't been supported for 30 months23:15
six_Its the only version that will work on the older computer...23:15
Ben64not true23:16
ianorlinsix_ have you heard of lubuntu?23:16
kostkonsix_, how old? what's the specs. You could install xubuntu 14.0423:16
six_So what you are saying is that if i upgrade to Xubuntu or Lubuntu the card should work - or are you just saying that because you think i should upgrade anyways?23:16
six_Because from what i read the card works better on older versions23:17
six_In ubuntu 6 it worked out of the box23:17
Ben64you're not going to get any support until you run a supported version23:17
six_Thats what i thought...23:17
HomelessSantaNewer kernels always support newer hardware 'Out of the box'. Hence, unsupported versions might not have the necessary driver module to correctly use the video card.23:21
HomelessSanta:P23:21
daftykinsthe user left23:21
HomelessSantaAhh!!!23:21
HomelessSantaThankies.23:22
Ben64yep, sometimes like running an outdated version with all kinds of bugs and vulnerabilities23:22
HomelessSantaNo doubt just like my Firefox, VLC and Thunderbird being outdated along with my Linux Kernel. :P23:25

byerleyHi, I'd like to shrink my main partition using ubuntu on a USB drive (in preparation for adding windows), but gparted is throwing a bunch of error messages (possibly related to a previous recovery?) and I'm not sure if I should ignore them or not? - here's the terminal output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10767845/23:35
HomelessSantaI am off enjoy the rest of the day.23:38
Bashing-ombyerley: Are you booting a liveUSB thus able to work on 'sda' ? This " Device or resource busy. " seems to indicate you are working from 'sda' .23:40
byerleyBashing-om: Currently working exclusively from the USB as far as I know. "umount /dev/sda" returns "not mounted" and according to lsblk I don't actually have a /dev/sda223:47
Bashing-ombyerley: Odd, then .. Do you have any care for what is on the hard drive presently ? such that one can over write the disk with zeros ?23:50

byerleyBashing-om: I guess I'll try to backup and do a cleanish install. Out of curiosity, does it matter where the swap partition is in relation to the main? (If they were on either side of a Windows partition for example)23:55
