| Jordan_U | brass_gauge: If it hasn't been finilized then you can add another track, which can designate that new files should be added or existing files modified. | 00:03 |
| Jordan_U | brass_gauge: But most programs finalize CDs by default, and it's not a commonly used feature. It also means that if you "delete" an existing file you can't regain that space, because you're only adding additional bits physically to the CD, you can't change what's already been burned. | 00:04 |

| Marikos | Hi guys, this is driving me crazy and google is of no help. Short version, I'm not a fan of the unit policy and I want Nautilius to show me proper units (e.g. MiB, I can deal with the label) but I want my base-2 file sizes because it's not consistent between my terminal apps and my UI | 00:10 |
| Marikos | Please tell me there's a setting somewhere? | 00:10 |
| Marikos | (pretty please?) | 00:10 |
| grio | ronh, what's the question exactly? I'm actually rebuilding my workstation to boot Windows 8.1 and 14.04 with a RAID-5 configuration. | 00:10 |
| ronh | grio I don't know if I should enable raid in bios or if I can just create software raid under windows and then be able to access it on linux. maybe important: this is just a data disk, both OSes will be installed on a separate disk | 00:12 |
| grio | ronh, you misunderstand what RAID does. What are you trying to achieve *exactly*? | 00:13 |
| ronh | what makes you say that? I want to create raid-1 that can be accessed from both windows and linux. | 00:14 |
| grio | Are you trying to create a disk that is accessible to both Ubuntu and Windows? Is that what I'm understanding? | 00:14 |
| ronh | yes | 00:14 |
| davevanloo | ronh, i created a raid drive on my motherboard by setting it to raid, linux now recognised it.., i also had done it inside windows.. and linux was not able to correctly detect nor mount it in any mode.., so i would suggest raid mode.. | 00:15 |
| grio | ronh, OK. All of that is independent of the OSs. When you can, you should ALWAYS avoid software RAID. | 00:15 |
| ronh | grio why? i actually wanted to avoid hardware raid | 00:16 |
| ronh | but i am not sure if it would work | 00:16 |
| davevanloo | i have a asus maximus VII ranger.., weirdly enough not sure if it has hardware-raid ( most likely not though.. as its an expensive option ) hardware raid makes all the raid processes be done on itself.. instead of via the cpu.. what all types of software raid do | 00:16 |
| grio | Hence why I said I think you misunderstand why and how RAID works. A software RAID is incumbent on the OS working correctly. With a hardware RAID, it's transparent to both OSs. | 00:16 |
| ronh | grio what if my motherboard dies and i buy a new one, with a different raid controller? | 00:16 |
| bekks | ronh: The ONLY way to have RAID1 being accessible (not even talking about accessing the filesystems) is using a hardwae RAID. | 00:17 |
| ronh | i can't access my data | 00:17 |
| grio | ronh, hence why an independent RAID controller is better, though your RAID configuration is on the harddrives, not the controller. | 00:17 |
| OerHeks | Marikos, known issue, i have no solution for mb <> mib | 00:17 |
| grio | You should be able to hook them up to another controller, and if the previous controller stuck to RFC, it should "just work." | 00:18 |
| === andrex is now known as andrex|off | ||
| ronh | and if not? I need to get exactly the same motherboard to access data? | 00:18 |
| bekks | ronh: Yes. | 00:18 |
| Marikos | OerHeks: That's what I was afraid of, it seems like a) it's a battle long over and b) user configuration was sacrificed for the "greater good" | 00:18 |
| grio | But I *never* use on-board RAID controllers. Always use an independent PCIe controller. Not necessarily, but most likely. | 00:18 |
| bekks | ronh: Thats why you have a backup. | 00:18 |
| grio | Exactly. | 00:19 |
| Marikos | OerHeks: IMO the debate was a non-starter, all storage units should be powers of 2 with SI prefixes, as it always has been | 00:19 |
| OerHeks | Marikos, this guy proposed a setting in dconf > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/875224/comments/13 maybe you can reply on that ? | 00:19 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 875224 in nautilus (Ubuntu) "nautilus shows the files with wrong calculated size" [Low,Invalid] | 00:19 |

| OerHeks | * would like to have | 00:20 |
| yoh4ns3n | /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER yoh4ns3n ebqyegckasty | 00:20 |
| Marikos | OerHeks: I'll do just that. I think even if we use the "human" base-10 units as the default and have a hidden setting it would be fine. KISS for the masses and those who know wht they want can tweak to their heart's content :) | 00:21 |

| Johnny_Linux | D`oh! | 00:21 |
| OerHeks | https://freenode.net/faq.shtml#changepass | 00:21 |
| Marikos | OerHeks: and raw bytes would not be unwelcome. Personally despite its flaws, I like the way windows showed it, base-2 prefixed units and raw bytes | 00:21 |
| grio | ronh, otherwise, you have to have a software RAID in both Windows and Ubuntu, they have to work exactly the same, and if one corrupts the other, your data is toast. An independent controller creates reliability and transparency. All that make sense? | 00:22 |
| OerHeks | Marikos, good point, let the user choose | 00:22 |
| bekks | grio: The former is "unclear", since there is no such software solution - which just needed to be pointed out. | 00:22 |
| kSudo89 | when using CHOWN why might I get a 'Operation not permitted" error while using SUDO CHOWN | 00:22 |
| kSudo89 | same goes for sudo chmod | 00:22 |
| bekks | kSudo89: You are operating on a filesystem not supporting POSIX ACL. | 00:23 |
| ronh | grio just googled a bit.. according to this (dated) post linux can access window's software raid. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=833653&p=5217561#post5217561 | 00:23 |
| kSudo89 | but this is my /home/user/Videos folder. I don't understand what changed | 00:23 |
| grio | bekks, ronh: I was leaving him to make that revelation for himself, but you are correct. | 00:23 |
| OerHeks | kSudo89, chown without sudo is a security hole, even in you /home/ | 00:24 |
| kSudo89 | i used it with sudo | 00:24 |
| grio | ronh, I don't even see how that would be remotely possible, considering you need Windows to be maintaining bit integrity at that time. Otherwise, the data becomes incongruent, and the next time Windows boots, it eats the data because it never managed its writing to the disk. | 00:24 |
| ronh | well isn't that true for the independent controller as well? if it corrupts data you can no longer access it? | 00:24 |
| bekks | ronh: If it orrupts your data, you still have your backup. | 00:25 |
| kSudo89 | my command was "sudo chown -R root:root /home/user/Videos" you guys telling my a can't reverse that now? | 00:25 |
| grio | ronh, yes, but the drives are transparent to the OS. The OS doesn't know what a RAID it; it simply sees it as a block device. | 00:25 |
| ronh | bekks and how is that a pro for hardware controller? | 00:25 |
| bekks | ronh: No one said it is a pro for HW RAID. | 00:25 |
| OerHeks | kSudo89, sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /home/user/Videos | 00:25 |
| ronh | bekks we were discussing hardware vs software controllers. and you just jumped in with "ya gotta backup" line the second time | 00:25 |
| bekks | ronh: The ultimate PRO for a HW RAID is that it is supported by all operating systems with drivers available for it. | 00:26 |
| === erwin is now known as PHPLearner | ||
| kSudo89 | sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /home/user/Videos does not work | 00:26 |
| bekks | ronh: And I dropped i a lot earlier. | 00:27 |
| bekks | *in | 00:27 |
| OerHeks | kSudo89, /home/user/Videos is correct? is your user named user? else use sudo chown -R root:root /home/$USER/Videos | 00:27 |
| ronh | and what if 5 years down the line the controller dies? and you can't buy the same controller any more, except (maybe) on used market? | 00:27 |
| grio | ronh, if you implement a software raid, I will guarantee you will lose data. | 00:27 |
| === CyberJacob is now known as zz_CyberJacob | ||
| ronh | grio if i share data between the OSes, you mean? what if linux just reads data? | 00:28 |
| kSudo89 | sudo chown -R user:user /home/user/Videos well change all files to me but will not change /home/user/Videos and any subdirectories back to me. They all retain root | 00:28 |
| bekks | ronh: The ONLY chance of NOT losing data is having a valid backup. No RAID solution can be considered "safe" under ALL circumstances. | 00:28 |
| grio | You're not hearing me. The controller is just that; it controls. The RAID configuration is all stored on the hard drives. If you buy a controller today, in 5 years, you should be able to buy a new controller and swap it out, and have it be transparent to the drives. | 00:28 |
| ronh | grio then why doesn't that work with onboard controllers? | 00:29 |
| grio | ronh, what bekks said; nothing beats a backup. The controller is no guarantee your data survives in a RAID. | 00:29 |
| bekks | ronh: Because onboard RAID controllers are fakeraid controllers, which work only because the driver in a specific OS (Windows) operates them. | 00:29 |
| kSudo89 | /home/user/Videos and /home/user/Videos/1 all retain root while /home/user/Videos/video1.mov change | 00:29 |
| grio | ronh, it SHOULD work. But those onboard controllers seem to be non-standard, unless it's Intel or Adaptec. | 00:30 |
| grio | grio, and bekks detailed the coup de gras. Driver-controlled bit management = BAD. You want an independent controller with a fair amount of cache (RAM), and a battery. | 00:31 |
| kSudo89 | sudo chown root:root /home/$USER/Videos | 00:32 |

| ronh | "This motherboard adopts Intel southbridge chipset that integrates RAID controller supporting Raid0/Raid1/Intel Rapid Storage/Raid 10/ Raid 5" | 00:33 |
| kSudo89 | I give up thanks anyways | 00:33 |
| ronh | so how safe is to use this hardware controller? | 00:33 |
| bekks | ronh: Which controller is it in particular? | 00:33 |
| bekks | ronh: FIRST, we need to find out wether it is a HW RAID controller at all :) | 00:33 |
| grio | ronh, then don't let me stop you. bekks probably ICH7-9 Raid Matrix. Decent HW controller. It's what the mobos I use at work use for RAID1. | 00:34 |
| ronh | no clue, the page I"m reading doesn't say and I can't find it onl google... Z97 chipset, ASRock Extreme3 motherboard | 00:35 |
| bekks | The Intel Rapid Storage controllers are fakeraid controllers. | 00:35 |
| bekks | At least all of them I've seen. | 00:35 |
| ronh | which means? | 00:35 |
| bekks | You dont have a HW RAID controller. | 00:35 |
| grio | bekks, Negativo, good sir. They're all standard, or at least in my experience. | 00:35 |
| ronh | other motherboards can't read its raid arrays? | 00:36 |
| bekks | grio: I'm open to learn :) | 00:36 |
| grio | Every one of my customers who opted for RAID1 data protection use those on the embedded motherboards we sell. Never had a single data corruption in the 5 years I've been selling/servicing them. | 00:36 |
| bekks | I cant find any reference for Intel Rapid Storage not being fakeraid. | 00:37 |
| bekks | Some of you can, maybe? | 00:37 |
| * grio has a Rapid Storage server sitting to his left doing almost exactly what ronh wants to do. | 00:38 | |
| ronh | if I do raid-1 now can I switch to raid-5 once I buy more disks? | 00:39 |
| ronh | without copying data back and forth | 00:40 |
| grio | ronh, I wouldn't be concerned about using the Rapid Storage controller, personally. It's not best practices, but it's still a decent controller in *my* experience. | 00:40 |
| ronh | okay.. sounds better than software controllers anyway | 00:40 |
| davevanloo | its exually funny how much trouble im having in finding out weither I have hardware-raid.. it kinda looks like i have.. especially as in how easy both windows and linux recognised the drive ( even without drivers ) | 00:40 |
| ronh | what about rebuilding raid-1 as raid-5 once more drivers are added? | 00:41 |
| ronh | disks* | 00:41 |
| bekks | davevanloo: Without drivers, neither Windows nor Linux woudl detect anything. The drivers are shipped with the default installation most likely. | 00:41 |
| grio | I've never used Rapid Storage drives for RAID5, so I can't attest to the quality. | 00:41 |
| davevanloo | bekks: that is true.., but doesnt hardware-raid present the raid-x drive as a single drive to the OS? | 00:42 |

| grio | teward, I was close. 16EB. | 01:21 |
| grio | ronh, what? | 01:21 |
| grio | ronh, if the answer was no, FAT32 would be the suggestion. | 01:22 |
| ronh | grio does linux support exFAT better? since you recommended it over ntfs | 01:22 |
| ronh | oh I see | 01:22 |
| grio | ronh, NTFS has had a long and contentious support relationship. | 01:22 |
| teward | ronh: exfat unless you have older windows. | 01:22 |
| teward | (before winxp for example) | 01:22 |
| teward | s/winxp/winvista/ | 01:23 |
| ronh | i have windows 8.1 | 01:23 |
| grio | ronh, I couldn't exactly tell you why. If he has < WinXP, I'd tell him to GTFO anyway. | 01:23 |
| ronh | and don't care about older windows accessing the data.. only linux | 01:23 |
| grio | exFAT FTW KTHKBYE | 01:23 |
| teward | ronh: then exfat. but note that 8.1 and linux don't like each other either | 01:23 |
| Jordan_U | ronh: grio: NTFS support is included out of the box, and is reliable. EXfat support is not included by default. | 01:24 |
| ronh | hah ok.. I fully expected the answer to be NTFS and was just waiting for confirmation.. good thing i asked | 01:24 |
| teward | so there may be problems if you 'fastboot' 8.1 (make sure to really shut that stuff down xD) | 01:24 |
| grio | teward, negative nelly. It'll be fine. He just has to follow the instructions. | 01:24 |
| teward | grio: *points at his own 8.1 installation on a dualboot breaking the data partition routinely* | 01:24 |
| ronh | Jordan_U is it more reliable than exfat support? | 01:24 |
| grio | Jordan_U, I was thinking I'd had good luck with NTFS, but I didn't want to speak out of turn. Which ironically I did. | 01:25 |
| dodobrain | hi all.. | 01:25 |
| YvesLevier | Hi dodobrain | 01:25 |
| grio | teward, sounds like a 'you' problem. =P | 01:25 |
| dodobrain | will installing postgresql-9.3 migrate the databases currently put into postgresql-9.1 ? | 01:25 |
| grio | dodobrain, /j #postgres | 01:25 |
| Jordan_U | ronh: I'm not familiar with how reliable EXfat support is, but it would be difficult for it to be more reliable than ntfs at this point. | 01:25 |
| dodobrain | i did a quick check on apt-cache show postgresql-9.3 and it doesn;t say it conflicts with postgresql-9.1 | 01:26 |
| teward | grio: sounds like windows. but meh | 01:26 |
| YvesLevier | Som1 in Ubuntu-fr wants to know how to get well prepared his Linux certification. You know what it can mean plz? | 01:26 |
| dodobrain | grio, no. this is an ubuntu question. not a postgres question | 01:26 |
| teward | grio: but meh, i prefer a nice linux environmnet | 01:26 |
| grio | teward, I'm a recent re-convert. Primary desktop for work and home for 6 months, but still boot to 7/8.1 for app support and gaming. Don't have this breaking you speak of. | 01:27 |
| teward | grio: *shrugs* it's ultimately irrelevant and offtopic here so meh | 01:27 |
| grio | teward, Love my 14.04 install. Upgrade to 14.10 on my work machine. That was a meh-stake. More trouble than the tweaks were worth. | 01:28 |
| [n0mad] | all that breaks is if you have fastboot enabled you can't directly access the windows partition because it's basically hibernated | 01:28 |
| [n0mad] | if you restart, if you shut down windows with fastboot enabled you never would notice | 01:28 |
| ronh | grio,teward why exfat over ntfs? | 01:29 |
| grio | I know NTFS support has been solid in my experience, but exFAT doesn't have permissions to play with. If it's just media, permissions aren't a concern. But Jordan_U is right; exfat support isnt native, and needs to be installed with apt-get. | 01:31 |
| grio | I also come from the Linux 1.x/2.x era, when NTFS support was still just experimental. | 01:31 |

| w00tburger | I am running into issue with my bash prompt. I have colored it, but when I type to a new line it overwrites my first line | 02:14 |
| shrikumar | terminal opening and closing immediately | 02:15 |
| w00tburger | someone? anyone? I am desperate so I can go about my business | 02:19 |
| w00tburger | or lack there of at this point | 02:19 |
| dodobrain | w00tburger, what do you mean? i didn;t understand your earlier statement about overwriting | 02:20 |
| dodobrain | perhaps screenshot or video would be more easily understood | 02:20 |
| dancular | is there an easy way to execute some cli commands in x seconds up to a year later? | 02:23 |
| w00tburger | when I type a line out in a shell, when it gets to the end of the line, instead of breaking the text to a new line it will begin overlapping the text I am currently writting | 02:23 |
| cfhowlett | dancular, sounds like a cron command ... a LONG cron command | 02:24 |
| dancular | k i'll google it thanks | 02:24 |
| shrikumar | terminal opening and closing immediately | 02:24 |
| dancular | is long cron different command or is long just a flag or something | 02:24 |
| [n0mad] | i think cfhowlett just means a year is a long way out | 02:25 |
| dancular | right | 02:25 |
| dancular | that was just hypothetical the server will restart before a year is up | 02:25 |
| [n0mad] | do you mean you want it to do something every x number of seconds for the next year? or you don't want it to do something till next year? | 02:26 |

| Sramelyor3301 | Where am I possibly going wrong? | 02:32 |

| Sramelyor3301 | Which channel would that be? | 02:33 |

| sgo11 | hi, this is weird. latest ubuntu 14.04.1, GParted hangs on "Searching /dev/sda partitions". My /dev/sda is a ssd drive which only has one /dev/sda1 ext4 partition. any ideas? thanks. | 05:21 |
| ianorlin | sgo11: does lsblk list the partitions? | 05:22 |
| sgo11 | ianorlin, yeah, just run that command without sudo. it outputs fine. | 05:23 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: did you change IDE to AHCI in bios? | 05:26 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, yeah. it's AHCI. | 05:26 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: what ssd brand? | 05:26 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, samsung. | 05:26 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: evo 840? | 05:27 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, ata1.00: ATA-9: Samsung SSD 850 EVO 120GB, EMT01B6Q, max UDMA/133 | 05:27 |
| lotuspsychje | ok nice | 05:27 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: so sudo gparted hangs on you? | 05:28 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, yeah, the GUI window shows "Searching /dev/sda partitions" forever. maybe not forever. more than 3 minutes. I don't want to wait and just killed it. | 05:28 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: maybe do a tail -f /var/log/dmesg and tail -f /var/log/syslog while you running gparted, for errors | 05:29 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, I will try it. | 05:29 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, no error so far. | 05:30 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: this was a standard install or encrypted? | 05:31 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, standard install. no encryption | 05:31 |
| lotuspsychje | ok | 05:31 |
| sgo11 | still no error output | 05:31 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: maybe also try a SMART test from disktools | 05:31 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, how to try that? should I kill gparted now? | 05:32 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: no leave it open, maybe for errors | 05:32 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, ok, just afraid it will damage my ssd drive. leave it open then. how to try SMART test? | 05:33 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: in your start button/ search the disk icon | 05:33 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, do you know the commands? I am running lxde. | 05:33 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: oh your on lubuntu? | 05:33 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, yeah. any difference? the core should be the same. :) | 05:34 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, the gparted loaded... | 05:34 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, 5 minutes. | 05:34 |
| lotuspsychje | thats odd indeed | 05:35 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, does this log help? kernel: [ 2151.744305] perf interrupt took too long (2520 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000 | 05:35 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, probably not. that happens before I run gparted. | 05:36 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: wich lubuntu version are you on? | 05:37 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, the latest one with sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to the latest. | 05:37 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: you upgraded from wich to wich? | 05:37 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, what is the latest one? 14.04.1 or 14.04.2 ? can't remember. maybe 14.04.1 | 05:38 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: did you upgrade from 12.04? | 05:38 |
| sgo11 | the LTS version | 05:38 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: yeah latest is 14.04.2 | 05:38 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, no. fresh install. I said I just did dist-upgrade. | 05:39 |
| lotuspsychje | hmm | 05:39 |
| lotuspsychje | not sure what could cause this freeze | 05:39 |
| sgo11 | lotuspsychje, it just takes 5 minutes to load. weird. | 05:40 |
| lotuspsychje | sgo11: if you can find that disk utility for a smart test? | 05:40 |

| Kanov | OerHeks; yes. I manually removed 3.4 and 3.2 to see that fixed the problem, but unfortunately...that just made it worse | 06:04 |

| DamBedEi | Hey guys, got a little big problem and I hope someone can help me :) I had Windows installed on my PC but I wanted to try Ubuntu. So I installed Ubuntu 14.04 as Dualboot. In Windows I created a partition formated as NTFS. The idea was to save files there so I can access them from Windows and Ubuntu. I saved a few folders and files on this partition in Ubuntu then I rebooted and wanted to access the files in Windows. | 07:18 |
| BlueBer63 | I has one year | 07:19 |
| BlueBer63 | will this whole Ubuntu work or not? | 07:19 |
| DamBedEi | I clicked on the partition in the windows explorer and it said it is empty. After rebooting and going to Ubuntu again the partition is also empty and all the files are lost. WTF happend ?! | 07:19 |

| W8_1 | Yo | 07:21 |
| cfhowlett | DamBedEi, that IS weird! | 07:22 |
| Ben64 | DamBedEi: just a tip - you should never do 'sudo nautilus' | 07:22 |
| BlueBer63 | can just upgrade cpu to make Ubuntu work on my computer? | 07:22 |
| BlueBer63 | what cpu should I buy? | 07:22 |
| OerHeks | DamBedEi, how did you copy those files to that ntfs partition? | 07:22 |

| BlueBer63 | can someone answer? | 07:23 |

| W8_Changed | Hi | 07:25 |
| BlueBer63 | ? | 07:25 |
| cfhowlett | DamBedEi, found.000 is a windows thing. | 07:25 |
| cfhowlett | Guest63891, same. | 07:25 |
| Guest63891 | cfhowlett: I assume I have more options from the command line | 07:26 |
| cfhowlett | Guest63891, indeed. | 07:26 |
| Guest63891 | that's all I need for now | 07:26 |
| Guest63891 | cause is slow from the usb port | 07:26 |
| cfhowlett | Guest63891, run apt-get from terminal for details | 07:26 |
| Ben64 | actually, 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' is the same as the graphical updater, just 'upgrade' doesn't do kernels and other things | 07:26 |
| Guest63891 | and do you know if persistent data means keeping upgrade after reboot or no? | 07:27 |
| DamBedEi | cfhowlett: ok, but my files are still lost and I did nothing else then clicking on the partion in windows explorer | 07:27 |
| Guest63891 | cfhowlett: I'm gonna check it out | 07:27 |
| BlueBer63 | hello I have asked question people! | 07:27 |
| Ben64 | DamBedEi: go back to ubuntu and see if you can find them | 07:27 |
| cfhowlett | DamBedEi, yeah, but that found.000 is created by windows due to something ... ask in ##windows for further info | 07:27 |
| DamBedEi | Ben64: I am back in Ubuntu and no files anymore :( | 07:27 |
| DamBedEi | cfhowlett: Ok, I will give it a try | 07:28 |
| Ben64 | DamBedEi: maybe you made files in the mountpoint without the drive actually mounted there? | 07:28 |
| BlueBer63 | can someone answer please? | 07:28 |
| DamBedEi | Ben64: this is possible oO ? | 07:28 |
| BlueBer63 | it's not nice to ignore potential future customers | 07:28 |
| Ben64 | BlueBer63: you're just wasting everyones time with your nonsense questions | 07:28 |
| BlueBer63 | right? | 07:28 |
| BlueBer63 | it's technical question | 07:29 |
| DamBedEi | Ben64: I thought it has to be mounted, else I can't access it through the terminal | 07:29 |
| ianorlin | BlueBer63 you need pae for 32 bit ubuntu but that came out with pentium pro execept for some wierd pentium M chips | 07:30 |
| Ben64 | DamBedEi: if it isn't mounted, the directory is still there | 07:30 |

| DamBedEi | Ben64: I asked in the Windows forum and they said it is probably a mounting problem, like when you don't remove your USB-Stick. So I didn't unmount the Partition correctly and the datas are lost. The found.000 is a folder from windows. It restored something but not all | 07:50 |
| Ben64 | DamBedEi: yes, you do need to properly unmount partitions | 07:51 |

| nita_ | farciarz84: sounds like you're looking for OpenStack | 09:25 |
| farciarz84 | nita_: why? | 09:26 |
| faust | farciarz84: take a look at Chef or puppet or salt-stack (IMHO this last one is still not production-stable, but it is really nice) | 09:28 |
| farciarz84 | faust: ansible or salt-stack? Which one would you prefer? | 09:30 |
| faust | farciarz84: hey are really different | 09:31 |
| faust | farciarz84: ansible is like "salt-ssh" that is just a small part of salt, but probably ansible could be considered more stable than salt | 09:31 |
| farciarz84 | faust: what is the big part of salt? | 09:32 |
| faust | anyway in my experience if you don't use the most exotic feature in salt it "should work" | 09:32 |

| donniezazen | Can xUbuntu 14.04 be good platform for Qt development or should you be using the latest releases? I like the stability of LTS releases but packages may end up to be quit old. | 09:33 |
| maryamhonary | hi every body | 09:33 |
| faust | farciarz84: it uses zeromq to make "minions" connect to the "master" which don't need to know anything about its minions, it is good if you have a dynamic enviroment with *a lot* of machines | 09:33 |
| farciarz84 | is 7 a lot? | 09:34 |
| faust | farciarz84: you can use salt with 7 machines if you want (and you won't have problems if you will increase this number), on the other hand orchestrating 7 servers over SSH is still possibile (but you may face some slowdown) | 09:36 |
| faust | you should try them and which fits better, also give a chance to chef/puppet, they are written in ruby, which is a bad thing, but they are pretty stable | 09:37 |
| MouseTheLuckyDog | I just started up firefox, the restore session is messed up, the history is messed up some of the plugins are not working. Before I start mucking around trying to fix things, what folders do I want to back up? | 09:38 |
| farciarz84 | faust: I don't think ruby is a bad thing however I'd go with ansible or salt | 09:38 |
| farciarz84 | chef/puppet seems odd to me | 09:39 |

| Sy`work | Hey, does anyone know what defines the order of the block devices in /dev (sda/sdb/...)? Is that the physical location of the cables on the mainboard or can you change it in the BIOS? | 09:46 |
| ikonia | Sy`work: there is no ordering any more - thats why you usin uuid's | 09:47 |
| Sy`work | I can't - it's a live image that's sent to many computers and then runs a script | 09:47 |
| Eightynine | Hi guys. I'm using Ubuntu LTS with XFCE and Unity, my resolution is 1920x1080, but quality is like resolution is low, I can see pixels(especially in panel and login screen). Boot logo not fits to my screen, resolution is low. How to fix this? | 09:48 |
| MonkeyDust | Eightynine start with arandr | 09:48 |
| Sy`work | even if the OS doesn't sort it... it should still have a certain order unless the OS randomizes it... :( | 09:48 |
| k1l | Sy`work: its the ordering the bios sends out. some mainboards/bios do shuffle them every time. if you are lucky its just the order of the cables in the slots | 09:48 |
| Sy`work | thanks :D | 09:49 |
| Sy`work | thought it was the boot order, but a few computers didn't think so :) | 09:49 |
| Eightynine | What is arandr? Also I have small fonts in Chrome. | 09:50 |

| jenenliu | this is my sources.list file, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10790234/ | 09:53 |
| jenenliu | I try google, but can't fix it, can someone help? thanks a lot | 09:54 |
| k1l | !info build-dep | 09:55 |
| ubottu | Package build-dep does not exist in utopic | 09:55 |
| k1l | jenenliu: why do you want that package? or where does it say you need it? i am not aware of that package | 09:56 |
| jenenliu | I want to compile wine | 09:57 |
| jenenliu | ubottu: then how should I modify my sources.list file ? | 09:57 |
| ubottu | jenenliu: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:57 |
| jenenliu | k1l: Any idea ? Is it because there are something wrong in sources.list file? | 10:02 |

| MonkeyDust | build-essential* | 10:04 |
| k1l | jenenliu: the package is called "build-essential" | 10:04 |
| jenenliu | thank you guys, I am confused, it should be apt-get build-dep wine ;(, thanks a lot anyway | 10:05 |
| k1l | jenenliu: what howto are you following? | 10:06 |
| k1l | jenenliu: wait | 10:07 |
| k1l | jenenliu: its a command for apt-get, not a package | 10:07 |

| faust | zatan: why sudo su? | 10:50 |

So how to login in my ubuntu system. I can login in command prompt by pressing CLT_ALTf1, but not able to start GNOME Session. How to solve | 11:36 |
| OerHeks | DamBedEi, no, because it is EFI, you will have a fat32 boot partition to put grub on, so it is sdb2 or sdb3 or sdb7 | 11:37 |
| OerHeks | my wild guess: sdb7 | 11:38 |
| DamBedEi | OerHeks: hopefully not sdb7 because I also can't mount this one ... :'( | 11:38 |

| max3453453453534 | In a C program if I create 10 pipes and spawn only 2 child processes that re-alias the appropriate ends of 1 of the pipes to communicate do I need to close the other 9 pipes? | 11:39 |
| OerHeks | just ask your question, damiano_ | 11:40 |
| OerHeks | max3453453453534, ask in ##c ? | 11:40 |
| OerHeks | or ##c++ | 11:40 |
| DamBedEi | OerHeks: I really think it is sdb7, but how do I mount it now? | 11:40 |
| max3453453453534 | OerHeks: this is a unix question about pipes and file descriptors | 11:40 |
| max3453453453534 | OerHeks: this is a linux quesetion* | 11:41 |
| geirha | you'll have 9 unused pipes. Whether you destroy them or keep them for later ... who are we to judge? | 11:41 |
| max3453453453534 | geirha: will the program block because certain pipe ends aren't closed | 11:42 |
| damiano_ | ok guys, here is my situation. I just installed ubuntu14.10, had some trouble since I'm using a nvidia gtx970 video card, now I have installed the latest drivers that are not officially supported... acceleration is on but unity is not working, I can log into X but windows border and the lateral bar are missing | 11:42 |
| geirha | max3453453453534: that only matters when you start reading from or writing to the pipe | 11:43 |
| ajnr | hi I am not able to login using Gnome but able to login in terminal | 11:43 |
| max3453453453534 | geirha: you're saying if i never start reading or writing from the other other pipes the program won't block if I close the first pipe | 11:44 |
| k1l | ajnr: do a "ls -al" in that users home and see what is owned by root:root | 11:45 |
| ajnr | k1l, I have root:root .. | 11:46 |
| OerHeks | DamBedEi, maybe this manual is any help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#Reinstalling_GRUB_2 and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 11:46 |
| k1l | ajnr: for everything? | 11:46 |
| geirha | max3453453453534: the pipes themselves do nothing until you use them | 11:47 |
| k1l | ajnr: what does it say for .Xauthority? | 11:47 |
| ajnr | k1l, It shows like that only | 11:47 |
| ajnr | k1l, Its not there ! | 11:47 |
| damiano_ | ok I'm done, solved by myself, I had to enable unity in compizconfig-settings-manager, why it was disabled I have no idea | 11:47 |

| k1l | ajnr: so what is the name of that user? | 11:48 |
| ajnr | k1l, kunal | 11:48 |
| Thenewone | goodmorningguys | 11:49 |
| k1l | ajnr: so "ls -al /home/kunal/" lists that everything is owned by root:root? | 11:49 |
| geirha | max3453453453534: Also, "closing a pipe" is ambigous. you don't close a pipe, you close its file descriptors. | 11:49 |
| ajnr | k1l, yes | 11:49 |
| ajnr | k1l, sorry , how to know that | 11:50 |
| Thenewone | good question | 11:50 |
| Thenewone | read man | 11:50 |
| Thenewone | the results | 11:50 |
| Thenewone | you will see user or root | 11:50 |
| ajnr | root:root show vminfo , .. .dbus.gvfs | 11:50 |

| Thenewone | like :drwxr-xr-x root root 4069 ..................... | 11:51 |
| ajnr | rest all are kunal:kunal k1l | 11:51 |
| max3453453453534 | geirha: i can show you a program that will block unless i close the other 9 pairs of file descriptors that correspond to the other 9 pipes. | 11:51 |

| aavrug | Hello everyone | 12:11 |
| Thenewone | ioria, works | 12:11 |
| aavrug | Can anyone help me with ffmpeg? | 12:11 |
| ioria | Thenewone, -^_^- | 12:11 |
| geirha | max3453453453534: indentation is off, so it's hard to read | 12:11 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, ffmpeg was deprecated but will return in ubuntu 15.* the recommended alternative is avconv which is included in the libav-tools package | 12:12 |
| fragment137 | Greetings all | 12:13 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, ok thanks. | 12:13 |
| fragment137 | An update got pushed out for 14.04 recently and now after a few seconds I can't click on any windows. Menus/launcher still work, but can't click on any active windows (left or right). I've tried with multiple mice and the issue is even replicated through TeamViewer. Can anyone help? | 12:14 |
| geirha | max3453453453534: if the lines is "ls -l | less", then getPipes() will return 2, but there really is only one pipe, so you're creating a pipe too many it seems. | 12:15 |
| Thenewone | i want add some animation to my script how knows some ? | 12:15 |
| cfhowlett | Thenewone, ask ##bash | 12:15 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, but besides that is there any way to save images with different name on new uploads? | 12:15 |
| ioria | Thenewone, youca use ncurses | 12:15 |

| cfhowlett | aavrug, explain a bit more? | 12:16 |
| dvrr | MonkeyDust: http://i.imgur.com/HhoWg2A.jpg please open this url i am getting this problem | 12:16 |
| aavrug | I am uploading a video and if the image-01.jpeg is present then new image is not creating for this new uploaded video | 12:17 |
| aavrug | here image-01.jpeg is creating from ffmpeg command | 12:17 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, so it's a screenshot of your source video??? | 12:18 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, exactly | 12:18 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, and you are uploading ONLY a video, not the .jpeg? | 12:18 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, also: uploading to ??? youtube? | 12:19 |
| fragment137 | Can anyone help my with my mouse issue? Very odd problems after the last update to 14.04 a few days ago | 12:19 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, no there is a requirement that when a video will upload from local path, i have to set a thumbnail of that video. | 12:20 |
| LiohAu | anybody that can learn me how to configure wifi on command line? :( | 12:20 |
| aavrug | Only for local uploaded videos. | 12:20 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, I'm a bit slow I know, but bear with me ... so you use ffmpeg/avconv to create the thumbnail? | 12:20 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, yes | 12:21 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, no probs | 12:21 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, try this: no .jpeg, how about ... .png instead? | 12:21 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, i don't have the problem with extension | 12:22 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, that's actually a different image format, not merely an extension | 12:23 |
| max3453453453534 | geirha: yes you're correct i realized that that example wasn't correct in the shower just now | 12:24 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, i think you didn't understood. I have a form and from that the video is going to upload so there will be a lot of videos. | 12:24 |
| mohsen-rashidi | Hi. Is it possible to encrypt root partition after installation of Ubuntu? | 12:25 |
| max3453453453534 | geirha: i have no idea. last night i was helping a friend and we were pulling our hair out about which file descriptors to close and when | 12:25 |
| aavrug | So if i change the extension once then in next upload what will i do? | 12:25 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, quite possibly I don't understand. I never had this issue with youtube or vimeo uploads ... | 12:25 |
| geirha | max3453453453534: getPipes should return i-1; at least; but then your else-clause is missing the dup(2)-ing | 12:25 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, on the theory that .jpeg is the specific problem, a non-jpeg might bypass the problem. | 12:26 |
| fragment137 | I updated my Ubuntu yesterday and ever since, something has happened to my mouse input. different mice, and even a Teamviewer session has the same issue. I am able to see the mouse, I can (usually) click on launcher items and menu items no problem, but I am unable to click on any windows, move them, click on contents, etc. | 12:26 |
| max3453453453534 | geirha: that's not the actual code. we had the counters right. anyway thank you for your help | 12:26 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, let me try once more. | 12:26 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, and you are sending to youtube?? | 12:26 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, no just storing that in local system. | 12:26 |

| aavrug | cfhowlett, no same problem happening. | 12:31 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, i have uploaded a video from my form then ffmpeg created a image with name "image-01.png" again filled the form and uploaded the same video then new image has not been created. | 12:31 |
| tsunamie | I wish to connect to a server using a password via ssh. However my temrinal is using my ssh key ment for a nother server. How do I force it to give me a username/password rather than using my key | 12:31 |
| cfhowlett | aavrug, then this is officially over my head. sorry. I think #ffmpeg is a thing | 12:32 |
| fragment137 | tsunamie: when you type ssh <server IP> are you specifying a user? | 12:33 |
| tsunamie | yes | 12:33 |
| fragment137 | so ssh user@192.168.1.10 etc? | 12:33 |
| tsunamie | yes | 12:33 |
| aavrug | cfhowlett, it's ok thanks. | 12:33 |
| tsunamie | fragment137, yes | 12:33 |
| fragment137 | tsunamie, forgive mf but I don't quite get what the issue is? you're saying that the remote server isn't accepting the credentials for the user you're trying to log in with? | 12:34 |

| fragment137 | sounds like Server B is using the key for all ssh sessions | 12:36 |
| fragment137 | Give me a minute, let me see if I can dig anything up | 12:37 |
| fragment137 | tsunamie on server b do you have "PasswordAuthentication" set to "No" in /etc/ssh/sshd.config? | 12:39 |

| fragment137 | Zerant that was my next question, lol | 12:40 |
| Zerant | xD | 12:40 |
| fragment137 | I want to find out if it's set globally or just by user | 12:40 |
| fragment137 | or system wide | 12:40 |
| tsunamie | fragment137, one sec | 12:41 |
| fragment137 | np | 12:41 |
| Zerant | it can be a file permission problem if the .ssh folder has more permission then 644 | 12:41 |
| mantez | lfds | 12:43 |
| Guest69385 | Craigwell: I think it depends upon the hardware, lenovo have some firmware / software for that | 12:44 |
| Guest69385 | for thier laptops | 12:44 |
| Craigwell | <Guest69385> Dell D620 | 12:44 |

| fragment137 | gaaahhh this mouse issue is driving me NUTS O_O | 12:48 |
| Craigwell | <OerHeks> I do not know. I'm looking into it now | 12:48 |
| Craigwell | <OerHeks> One hardware workaround with these dells is to use 65w charger, which will run the machine but not charge battery. That's fine, but I'd rather have an option to tell when and when not to charge | 12:49 |
| OerHeks | Craigwell, never seen such option, charge up to 80%, good luck | 12:50 |
| Craigwell | <OerHeks> Yes, I've been charging them to 80% and removing, but want my butt covered when adapter falls out, brief power interruptions etc . | 12:52 |

| LiohAu | with 1.19 I would understand since it's the wlan3 interface IP, but 1.21 is associated to a disconnected interface | 13:38 |
| hkrrsx | LiohAu: OerHeks: What probably happened is wlan3 automatically took over when eth0 was unplugged | 13:38 |

| LiohAu | Actually it's like if the wlan interface was a gateway for the eth0 interface... | 13:44 |
| === crazybluek is now known as Blueking | ||
| OerHeks | LiohAu, now you are clear, yes, i think too that the wlan takes over, never seen that before. | 13:45 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: replacing the "root=UUID=..." with "root=/dev/sda1" again with the rootdelay ? | 13:45 |
| explosive | yeah | 13:45 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: same again | 13:46 |
| explosive | which ubuntu is this | 13:47 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: xubuntu 14.04.2 (kernel 3.16.something) | 13:47 |
| explosive | EugeneBandit: boot the live usb again | 13:47 |
| LiohAu | well next quesiton: I think I have messed up something with the window manager. When the boot is finished, the screen remains black but I still have the cursor. | 13:48 |
| bananabob | hey all, i have a script that i need to run (with sudo) from users 14.04 that needs to end with a logout. That seems hard to do, gnome-session-quit wont work without the proper ENVs in place and service lightdm restart will only end up in blackscreen with cursor blinking. Any ideas | 13:48 |
| ebandit_broken | explosive: done | 13:49 |
| LiohAu | (the missing question was : how do I fix that :P) | 13:50 |
| explosive | ebandit_broken: type sudo dumpe2fs /dev/sda1 | grep superblock | 13:50 |
| hkrrsx | bananabob: “/usr/bin/gnome-session-save --kill” ? | 13:51 |
| hkrrsx | bananabob: See section (C) Logoff Gnome from this URL: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-desktop-how-to-shutdown-restart-or-logoff-gnome-via-commandlauncher.html | 13:51 |

| ebandit_broken | yes | 13:51 |

| Elench | Hmm, I got StumpWM working, but now something to do with keyboard maps is catching Control-Space | 13:56 |
| Elench | How do I make it stop? | 13:56 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: back to the first error message | 13:57 |
| explosive | that sucks | 13:57 |
| explosive | try a larger rootdelay maybe | 13:57 |

| explosive | EugeneBandit: ok boot the live usb | 14:01 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: that might not be relevant, but i used to run kxstudio (ubuntu based), that i upgraded to kernel 3.19.1, then downgraded to 3.16 and _i think_, i tried to reinstall this newer version with reboot the system first after downgrading | 14:01 |
| EugeneBandit | and by newer version, i mean, this xubuntu iso | 14:01 |
| bananabob | hkrrsx, thanks, but that leaves me in black screen with curser kind of mode :/ | 14:01 |
| bananabob | cursor * | 14:01 |
| explosive | EugeneBandit: i dont follow | 14:01 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: arrrh, sorry. i meant i didn't reboot the system after downgrading the system | 14:01 |
| hkrrsx | bananabob: If " pkill -u <USER_ID> " doesn't do the trick for you, I'm out of options | 14:02 |
| explosive | EugeneBandit: what do you mean you installed this without rebooting? | 14:03 |
| explosive | EugeneBandit: you booted the live usb and installed right? | 14:03 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: this goes from KXStudio 14.04 (kernel 3.13) updated to kernel 3.19.1 in command line, then the package manager downgraded the kernel to, i think, wiped install before properly rebooting the system | 14:03 |
| bananabob | yeah that will be my fall-back, i was hoping for a built in gracious solution but im stumped too :) Thanks for helping though! | 14:03 |
| EugeneBandit | sorry, for my clumsy fingers and head : downgraded to 3.13 | 14:03 |
| EugeneBandit | damn, downgraded to 3.16 actually | 14:04 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: yes | 14:04 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: i meant to say, in the previous system, i updated the kernel without reboot the system proprely. just after the update, i booted on the live CD and installed a fresh xubuntu 14.04 | 14:05 |
| EugeneBandit | i wonder if that might be related | 14:05 |
| explosive | EugeneBandit: oh ok | 14:05 |
| explosive | no i dont think so | 14:05 |
| explosive | did the live usb boot? | 14:06 |
| EugeneBandit | explosive: yes | 14:06 |

| jrtappers | lesshaste, I think that is the right file, but there may be multiple ways | 14:19 |
| lesshaste | jrtappers, there is no sign of dhcp in that file. Maybe the graphical network config file uses some of other file | 14:19 |

| Voyage | ioria obviously apt wont work as I wont be on that system as a logged in user | 15:08 |
| genii | Voyage: Before you do the chroot command, you need to bindmount certain directories into the place you will be chrooting to. these are the /proc /sys /dev and optionally if you want network, copy the /etc/fstab file from the live session to the mounted etc directory. | 15:08 |
| ioria | Voyage, remove or purge, yes | 15:08 |
| genii | Voyage: Better to purge | 15:08 |
| Voyage | genii dont you think that apt wont work as I wont be on that system as a logged in user | 15:09 |
| Voyage | I mean the live cd system would be different than my HDD / | 15:09 |
| genii | Voyage: chroot puts you on that box as root | 15:09 |
| Voyage | oh. | 15:09 |
| Voyage | so I just chroot /path/to/the/problematic/root/partition ? | 15:09 |
| genii | Voyage: If you really wanted, you could su to that user, but for package removals or such root is what you require anyhow | 15:10 |
| genii | Voyage: First bindmount those dirs | 15:10 |
| Voyage | genii I woulud just chroot the root / of the old system | 15:10 |
| genii | Voyage: My work requires me. I will be back and forth from computer | 15:10 |
| Voyage | o | 15:10 |
| Voyage | ok | 15:10 |
| Voyage | thanks | 15:10 |
| genii | Voyage: If you only just chroot and try removing packages it will fail | 15:11 |
| genii | bindmounting those dirs first required | 15:11 |
| genii | afk | 15:11 |
| Elench | I solved my immediate problems, I'd just like to thank those who gave suggestions | 15:11 |
| Voyage | genii I will mount th partition in normal way first | 15:11 |

| rgb-one | matt|home: It may have seemed to be working fine because even though you replaced the drivers, the system may have still been using the one you removed. | 15:40 |
| matt|home | nah, because it wasn't working til i installed the correct drivers | 15:41 |
| rgb-one | matt|home: I see | 15:41 |
| matt|home | if worse comes to worse i can just uninstall/reinstall the gui right? | 15:41 |
| rgb-one | matt|home: indeed | 15:42 |
| matt|home | how do i do that | 15:43 |
| rgb-one | matt|home: how did you uninstall the default drivers? What apt command did you use? | 15:43 |

| Voyage | genii, i dont know what to do with the "libjson.c.so.2 | 15:44 |
| genii | Voyage: That is probably not a critical error, for now I would ignore it | 15:45 |
| Voyage | genii, thats what started all | 15:45 |
| genii | Voyage: The main objective right now is to get your original system booting | 15:45 |
| Voyage | genii, i do not know if it will boot now | 15:45 |
| genii | Voyage: You did: apt-get purge skype ( or similar?) | 15:46 |
| Voyage | genii, I did nothing. i was having errors when i didnt bindmount. when i did. all errors just faded away. | 15:46 |
| Voyage | genii, skype was never there | 15:46 |
| Voyage | genii, skype was never there (according to apt) | 15:46 |
| genii | Voyage: You stated originally you installed skype from their site and then system became unbootable | 15:46 |
| Voyage | yes | 15:47 |
| Voyage | genii, but I used the .deb | 15:47 |
| matt|home | rgb-one : so , do i have to uninstall/reinstall ? | 15:47 |
| rgb-one | matt|home: reinstall | 15:47 |
| matt|home | kay, whats the commands/thing i should look for | 15:47 |
| genii | Voyage: Then it should still show if you do a command like apt-cache policy skype | 15:47 |
| genii | But with a source like /var something instead of a repository name | 15:48 |

| genii | Voyage: Did it install/deinstall things, do nothing, something unexpected, what? | 15:49 |
| Voyage | genii, when I didnt did bindmound. -f install was giving errors about libjson. when I did bindmount and then chrooted. there were no errors without me doing anything. STRANGe | 15:50 |

| Aro2220 | Hi, I've followed this tutorial http://blog.bobbyallen.me/2014/01/11/setting-up-teamspeak-3-on-ubuntu-server-12-04-lts/ to install teamspeak on ubuntu 12.04 but it's running as root | 15:58 |
| Aro2220 | how do i create a new user account and fix this service so it runs off that? | 15:58 |
| mmazing | i was disconnected for a bit | 15:58 |
| matt|home | omfg.. why.. | 15:59 |
| hkrrsx | Aro2220: This line from your tutorial creates user "teamspeak3" ---- sudo adduser --disabled-login teamspeak3 | 16:00 |
| colby_ | matt i am a noob to linx in general but if all ur concerned about is drivers, wipe the machine and install the latest version of ubuntu | 16:00 |
| Aro2220 | hkrrsx: for some reason when i looked at top it said it was running from user root | 16:02 |
| jeffreylevesque | can someone tell me what this upstart script does - https://bpaste.net/show/06e3b64d49b1 | 16:02 |
| jeffreylevesque | it's located in /etc/init/redis-server.conf | 16:02 |
| hkrrsx | Aro2220: kill the current TeamSpeak process and relaunch it ...... hopefully, it'll launch from the "teamspeak3" user | 16:02 |
| jeffreylevesque | does it start the redis-server when the ubuntu machine starts up? | 16:02 |
| Aro2220 | it still says it is running from root | 16:03 |
| genii | Voyage: Glad to assist | 16:03 |
| hkrrsx | Aro2220: Are you logged in as root right now? | 16:04 |
| Aro2220 | hkrrsx no | 16:04 |
| jeffreylevesque | i don't think my upstart script is doing anything | 16:04 |
| Aro2220 | hkrrsx: i was before and it also showed as root | 16:04 |
| explosive | jeffreylevesque: is it running? ps aux | grep redis-server | 16:05 |
| hkrrsx | Aro2220: Reboot your computer, your instructions say Teamspeak should start on boot | 16:05 |
| jeffreylevesque | explosive: all i get is the grep process `jeffrey 3139 0.0 0.0 11740 936 pts/9 S+ 12:05 0:00 grep --color=auto redis-server` | 16:05 |
| Aro2220 | hkrrsx: it does in fact start from boot. I've rebooted 3 times already and it's always running as root. | 16:05 |
| explosive | jeffreylevesque: maybe it's not enabled? | 16:06 |
| explosive | update-rc.d rdis-server enable | 16:06 |
| Aro2220 | hkrrsx: i also ran cat /etc/passwd and teamspeak3 user is there | 16:06 |
| hkrrsx | Aro2220: Then you probably missed a step or something went wrong | 16:06 |
| jeffreylevesque | i am able to manually run the commands `sudo [start|restart|stop] redis-server` | 16:07 |
| mostefi | hye everyone | 16:07 |
| Aro2220 | hkrrsx: any idea what steps I could take to troubleshoot? | 16:07 |
| explosive | jeffreylevesque: ok, try to enable it with update-rc.d so it starts when the pc boots | 16:07 |
| hkrrsx | Aro2220: cross-reference your command history to the instructions and verify that you didn't miss anything | 16:07 |
| jeffreylevesque | explosive: when i do `update-rc.d rdis-server enable`, i get `update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/rdis-server: file does not exist` | 16:07 |
| explosive | jeffreylevesque: when you manually start it does it start? | 16:08 |
| jeffreylevesque | yes sir | 16:08 |
| hkrrsx | Aro2220: You might also go into /etc/password and set the shell for user 'teamspeak3' to /bin/false or /sbin/nologin | 16:08 |
| hkrrsx | Then reboot again and see if that helps | 16:08 |
| explosive | jeffreylevesque: try ls /etc/init.d | grep rdis | 16:09 |
| explosive | */etc/passwd | 16:09 |
| explosive | Aro2220: ^ | 16:09 |
| jeffreylevesque | i get nothin with ` .. | grep redis` | 16:10 |
| jeffreylevesque | or rdis | 16:10 |
| hkrrsx | explosive: Thanks for the correction | 16:10 |
| explosive | np | 16:10 |
| hkrrsx | Aro2220: I meant /etc/passwd | 16:10 |

| andybrine | good evening | 17:30 |
| c3sl | Hello, I was just wondering if there is some software similar to Suse Studio, but open source. Do you guys know? | 17:30 |
| hkrrsx | andybrine: welcome | 17:31 |
| hkrrsx | c3sl: http://alternativeto.net/software/suse-studio/ | 17:31 |
| andybrine | I wonder if anyone can help me. Im running gnome-shell and have cleared cache and everything and it still seems to be going incredibly slow. | 17:31 |
| andybrine | Is there anyway to diagnose where I can find where all the memory has gone? | 17:32 |
| kemmler | ioria: that just causes it to hang at [logging in]. pretty sure the server just drops the packets | 17:32 |
| andybrine | I have tried many things but im not able to speed it up. | 17:33 |
| hkrrsx | andybrine: Try running " top " from the command line | 17:33 |
| hkrrsx | or if you have it installed, the colorful "htop" | 17:33 |
| c3sl | thanks hkrrsx | 17:34 |
| andybrine | ok, thanks. I have used system monitor | 17:34 |
| hkrrsx | There you go | 17:34 |
| hkrrsx | If you're looking for mammoth performance gains, I'd say get a solid state drive | 17:35 |
| hkrrsx | HUUUUGE boost in performance | 17:35 |
| andybrine | that will give me the running processes but it doesnt tell me why my computer is soo slow | 17:35 |
| andybrine | I have a solid state drive | 17:35 |
| hkrrsx | Oh ... how about running fstrim ? | 17:36 |
| hkrrsx | sudo fstrim -v / | 17:36 |
| andybrine | let me give that a shot | 17:37 |
| andybrine | thanks | 17:37 |
| OerHeks | andybrine, maybe htop gives you more info. | 17:37 |
| andybrine | it says that its just trimmed 125gb :S | 17:38 |
| andybrine | is that right? | 17:38 |
| hkrrsx | Marvelous | 17:38 |
| andybrine | thats a lot though right? | 17:38 |
| OerHeks | andybrine, that is fast, usually it takes several minuts | 17:38 |

| Eightynine | Hi. I'm using Ubuntu LTS with XFCE(replaced Gnome and Unity by removing them and installing xubuntu-desktop package) but I didn't like it. Can I turn my system to Ubuntu MATE? | 17:40 |
| andybrine | here is the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/hEzwJMAe | 17:40 |
| hkrrsx | Thanks | 17:40 |
| hkrrsx | Well, available RAM is not the problem ... | 17:41 |
| hkrrsx | You're not using any swap at all (good) | 17:41 |
| andybrine | thanks for your help. That last command fstrim has really made a difference | 17:41 |
| hkrrsx | Excellent | 17:41 |
| andybrine | I have swap setup though | 17:41 |
| hkrrsx | You do, indeed | 17:42 |
| andybrine | ok cool | 17:42 |
| andybrine | lol, I thought it wasnt for a second | 17:42 |
| hkrrsx | How many programs do you have open at once when this problem occurs ? | 17:42 |
| andybrine | sometimes its only google chrome | 17:42 |
| hkrrsx | Google Chrome can be a beast but it won't chew up 8GB of RAM | 17:43 |
| andybrine | I may have 1 other program working alongside chrome but not a lot of the time | 17:43 |
| Patero-ng | I have a problema, I installed ubuntu 14 on a usb drive but the thing loaded fine ok but after like 10 minutes the screen started to look blocky with some greens blocks very weird this doesn't happen on the same windows 7 pc, it loaded from the usb so help someone??????? | 17:43 |
| andybrine | at the moment I have chrome, terminal and quassal running and its using almost 4gb or ram | 17:44 |
| Eightynine | I was late at your channel but what DE does he use? | 17:44 |
| andybrine | I though that was really extreme | 17:44 |
| hkrrsx | How many tabs do you have open in Chrome? | 17:44 |
| hkrrsx | And are any of them using Flash, like YouTube.com or something ? | 17:44 |
| OerHeks | Eightynine, mate-desktop in 14.04 , you will need a ppa for that > http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/08/install-mate-desktop-ubuntu-14-04-lts | 17:44 |
| OerHeks | Eightynine, as of 14.10 mate-desktop is back in the repos | 17:45 |
| andybrine | I usually have youtube running at times and can have many tabes open | 17:45 |
| mariano_ | h0olis | 17:45 |
| hkrrsx | andybrine: close Chrome and check your resources again | 17:45 |
| andybrine | with free -m? | 17:45 |
| Eightynine | Thanks, I saw this, but wanted to know whether this safe or not. | 17:46 |
| hkrrsx | Please | 17:46 |
| delinquentme | so I'm staring at a EC2 instance .... | 17:46 |
| OerHeks | Eightynine, use of a PPA is at your own risc. | 17:46 |
| delinquentme | and at current the / is almost full | 17:46 |
| delinquentme | but there is a /mnt/ which has quite a bit of space left there... | 17:46 |
| delinquentme | is that a *BAD* directory to use as working space on an ec2 instance? | 17:46 |
| rgb-one | Patero-ng: I have had this happen as well when I was using alphaOS Linux | 17:46 |
| rgb-one | Is is on and off. | 17:47 |

| hkrrsx | So a side-by-side comparison shows that Chrome was burning through 2GB of RAM | 17:48 |
| Bohemus | is there an openvpn gui i can use instead of the plugin for network manager? | 17:48 |
| andybrine | yea, thats a fair bit | 17:48 |
| hkrrsx | Perhaps browser tab management would be a good thing going forward | 17:49 |
| rgb-one | andybrine: What version of Gnome are you using? | 17:49 |
| andybrine | hkrrsx, do you think that I should still be using 2.5gb of RAM with what I have open now though? | 17:49 |
| ioria | Bohemus, try... https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/OpenVPN-GUI | 17:49 |
| Eightynine | openSUSE enables TRIM if user installing this distro on SSD. Can anyone please tell me if Ubuntu does this or not? | 17:49 |
| andybrine | rgb-one Im using 3.14 | 17:49 |
| hkrrsx | andybrine: I don't believe Unity is a light-weight desktop environment | 17:49 |
| OerHeks | !trim | 17:49 |
| ubottu | Many Solid State Drives support TRIM, which allows the drive to do garbage collection and improves performance. Ubuntu 14.04 activates it by default. For older versions, see http://askubuntu.com/a/19480 for information on activating it. | 17:50 |
| hkrrsx | Not the heaviest , but not light either | 17:50 |
| teward | Eightynine: it's activated by default in 14.04 and later | 17:50 |
| Eightynine | Thanks for the answer. | 17:50 |
| teward | per the Ubottu factoid just now that OerHeks called | 17:50 |
| ioria | Bohemus, sorry ... foe win32 | 17:50 |
| toshok_ | hey all, q: is there any guide to forking a system package into a ppa along with local changes? | 17:50 |
| hkrrsx | andybrine: Yeah, 2GB between the operating system, desktop environment, various services started at boot and a couple of programs .... that sounds ok | 17:51 |
| andybrine | hkrrsx Im not a fan of unity. I have installed Mate and some of the other dsktop environments which could conribute to it slowint down as well | 17:51 |
| andybrine | cool, thanks | 17:51 |
| Bohemus | ioria just noticed that! | 17:51 |
| Eightynine | If I remove XFCE(I mean xubuntu-desktop after MATE installation my system will be stable still? | 17:51 |
| hkrrsx | andybrine: You're only running 1 desktop environment at a time, so MATE or XFCE wouldn't contribute to this problem | 17:51 |
| andybrine | just out of interest, what did that trim command do? | 17:51 |
| hkrrsx | I'd ask you to switch over to one of the other DE's and see if your performance improves any more | 17:51 |
| hkrrsx | fstrim - discard unused blocks on a mounted filesystem | 17:52 |
| hkrrsx | http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/en/man8/fstrim.8.html | 17:52 |
| andybrine | hkrrsx it was still slow in the other environments as well | 17:52 |
| hkrrsx | It was slow then, prior to us running fstrim | 17:52 |
| andybrine | I think that trim may have done the trick | 17:52 |
| hkrrsx | Give it another shot now | 17:52 |
| andybrine | yea | 17:52 |
| ioria | Bohemus, it' a bit complicated but this should work http://gopenvpn.sourceforge.net/ | 17:53 |
| Smithgift | My ubuntu laptop is connected via ethernet to a router, as there are no accessable wifi networks in my area, It will constantly disconnect saying it has no wireless connection (true) and reconnect immediately saying it has a wired connection (also true.) How do I get it to stop doing this? | 17:54 |
| OerHeks | toshok_, sure, if you can get hands on the sourcecode, and write something about the changes https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA | 17:55 |
| OerHeks | Smithgift, easy, disable wireless in your networkmanager | 17:55 |
| Bohemus | ioria, that might work! | 17:56 |
| Bohemus | wish i could get it to work over network manager but i can never connect for some reason | 17:57 |
| Smithgift | OerHeks: Both the wireless button and the network manager insist that wireless is disabled. It's still doing it. | 17:58 |
| OerHeks | Smithgift, that is curious. | 17:59 |
| Smithgift | OerHeks: Can I just get network manager to ignore the wireless completely? I rarely use it. | 17:59 |
| hkrrsx | Smithgift: ifdown wlan0 from the command line | 17:59 |
| OerHeks | Smithgift, are you sure it is saying " no wireless" ? so it cannot be a flaky networkconnector? | 18:00 |

| Smithgift | OerHeks: Switched to an entirely different cable in a different port in the router, it's still doing it. | 18:05 |

| mpanetta | Morning/Afternoon :) | 18:36 |
| hkrrsx | That way, it shouldn't configure the wireless card's networking stuff on boot, leaving you with only " lo " and " eth0 " | 18:37 |
| mpanetta | I have a question that google is failing me on... How do I have 2 separate DHCP configured interfaces (eth0, eth1) and only set the resolv.conf entries for eth0? | 18:37 |

| teward | mpanetta: theoretically you can't - resolv.conf is used for the entire system, and if networkmanager controls your DHCP for both interfaces, then DNS servers are maintained by NetworkManager and not resolv.conf | 18:47 |
| mpanetta | teward: Ahh hmm | 18:47 |
| teward | mpanetta: in theory you can set dns-nameserver for the one interface via /etc/network/interfaces entries, but I haven't tested if that messes with resolv.conf effectively on a desktop | 18:48 |
| area51pilot | is there a way to purge all settings from Bluetooth and go back to install defaults? | 18:48 |
| mpanetta | teward: Well, this is a cloud server so if I break it I can just blow it away and try again ;) | 18:48 |
| mpanetta | Let me see what that does | 18:48 |
| teward | mpanetta: that's probably better asked in #ubuntu-server then | 18:48 |
| mpanetta | Oh there is a separate channel? Thanks, I did not know :) | 18:49 |

I tried to set a password in the recovery mode but this didn't work, I think it's because I choose to encrypt my home directory durring the installation. | 20:14 |

| htqp | chroot, then ''passwd username'' inside the chroot | 20:15 |
| htqp | !chroot | 20:15 |
| ubottu | A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 20:15 |
| Christopher-Were | hey guys, im trying to install virtualbox-additions-x11 on 14.04.2 but I can't. It says I have unmet dependancies. | 20:16 |
| Christopher-Were | I'm running 14.04.2 in a virtual machine incase it wasn't obvious | 20:17 |
| rypervenche | Christopher-Were: Can you provide us with the actual output please? | 20:18 |
| rypervenche | Christopher-Were: In a pastebin. And also if you could give the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list" as well as "ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list.d" that would be helpful. | 20:19 |
| OerHeks | virtualbox in ubuntu in a vm .. ? | 20:20 |
| * OerHeks thinks that doesn't work well | 20:20 | |
| Christopher-Were | I'm testing out Bella OS (which is based on 14.04.2) in a VM which is install on Ubuntu | 20:21 |
| anon | hie | 20:22 |
| anon | hai | 20:22 |
| OerHeks | Christopher-Were, find Bella support channel then, we do not support forks. | 20:22 |
| k1l_ | please ask bellaOS guys for support | 20:22 |
| OerHeks | Christopher-Were, anyway: any virtualbox in linux in a VM gives trouble AFAIK | 20:23 |
| Christopher-Were | They don't have an IRC channel. Since it's basically a re-skin I figured there'd be little difference. I actually dorce installed and it seemed to work, so sorry for wasting your guys time. | 20:23 |
| Christopher-Were | force install rather | 20:24 |
| Christopher-Were | Thanks for your help and attention. | 20:24 |
| htqp | we don't know their repositories, so we can't know if/what packages of bellaos conflict with stock ubuntu's ones | 20:25 |
| rypervenche | Glad you got it fixed :) | 20:25 |
| dougsko | Christopher-Were: use virtualbox to insert/install guest additions | 20:25 |
| dougsko | Christopher-Were: even if it doesnt run properly, it doesnt matter. mount the guest additions cd, and run the install or autorun script | 20:25 |
| Christopher-Were | The installer has returned errors with Linux headers. But as OurHeks said, this kinda trouble comes with the VM territory. | 20:27 |
| dougsko | Christopher-Were: are you running a guest within a guest? | 20:27 |
| Christopher-Were | To be clear. I'm running Mint 17.1 on my computer. I installed VirtualBox and am running Bella OS on it. Bella OS is based on 14.04.2 | 20:28 |
| DJones | Christopher-Were: Neither Mint or Bella OS would be supported here | 20:28 |
| DJones | !mint | Christopher-Were | 20:28 |
| ubottu | Christopher-Were: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 20:29 |
| dougsko | Christopher-Were: ok, i think OerHeks may have thought you were running a guest inside a guest. as long as youre not doing that, you should be ok. look for instructions on how to install guest additions on debian. they should be applicable. | 20:29 |
| k1l_ | Christopher-Were: all your issue are form the spin offs that do fiddle with the repos themselves. so please ask them how to solve that issue appropriatly. | 20:29 |

| wallbroken | somebody got dell xps ? | 20:59 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | that covers ubuntu 10.0.2-will that work for installing Ubuntu 14.0.2? | 20:59 |
| pbx | wallbroken, i've installed ubuntu on an xps. to get good help you need to ask your whole question | 21:01 |
| wallbroken | it's 2015 version? | 21:01 |
| wallbroken | i just want to know how 14.10 works on it | 21:01 |
| wallbroken | i know that the last xps supporting ubuntu got 12.04 version | 21:02 |
| wallbroken | called xps developer edition | 21:02 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | and according to the link you sent it still uses rEFInd bc rEFit isnt maintained any longer | 21:02 |
| pbx | wallbroken - that's an indicator of dell's attention span only | 21:02 |
| k1l_ | wallbroken: dell got a department making sure linux/ubuntu runs on their laptops | 21:03 |
| wallbroken | dell sells xps with ubuntu already installed | 21:03 |
| pbx | wallbroken, actually, looks like they're shipping 14.04 now http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/xps-13-linux/pd | 21:03 |
| k1l_ | project sputnik is what its called | 21:03 |
| wallbroken | but this year, with the last model, there is not | 21:03 |
| k1l_ | wallbroken: ^ | 21:04 |
| wallbroken | is not dell that writes the driver for it | 21:04 |
| pbx | wallbroken, dell is unlikely to choose non-LTS versions | 21:04 |
| wallbroken | project sputnik is just a cloud stuff | 21:04 |
| k1l_ | wallbroken: nope | 21:04 |
| wallbroken | pbx, 14.04 is lts | 21:05 |
| wallbroken | but dell sells developer edition with 12.04 | 21:05 |
| pbx | wallbroken, i commented re LTS because you asked about 14.10 | 21:06 |
| OerHeks | wallbroken, no, 2015 edition with 14.04 lts http://www.zdnet.com/article/dell-xps-13-linux-developer-edition-available/ | 21:06 |
| wallbroken | oh ok | 21:07 |
| byaruhaf | just wondering why is a text editor the default calendar application in Ubuntu? | 21:07 |
| wallbroken | and dell will give me support about operating system? | 21:08 |
| k1l_ | byaruhaf: what? | 21:08 |
| k1l_ | wallbroken: why not ask dell if you want that specific answers? | 21:09 |
| jaith | I hope this doesn't sound like a ridiculous question. Can a user belong to more than one group? | 21:09 |
| k1l_ | jaith: yes. | 21:09 |
| wallbroken | because dell customer service does not know anything | 21:09 |
| k1l_ | jaith: type "groups" in terminal to see what groups you are in already | 21:10 |
| wallbroken | and i don't want to fight with them | 21:10 |
| k1l_ | dell will support the preinstalled windows as it does with windows: it ships drivers. | 21:11 |
| dust | is there a mode for handicapped or disabled persons? how to get into it and how to leave it? | 21:11 |
| k1l_ | "hey dell, how can i watch netflix on my xps" will not work of course. | 21:11 |
| byaruhaf | K1l_ in the settings under details the deault Applicaiton for calendar is a text editor, gedit | 21:12 |
| k1l_ | dust: you can start the accessibility menu on the login screen | 21:12 |
| k1l_ | byaruhaf: which settings? | 21:13 |
| k1l_ | byaruhaf: ah, hmm. same for me here | 21:13 |
| byaruhaf | k1l: in the system setting ubuntu 14.04 | 21:14 |
| jaith | OK so I'd like to create a new group, say "developers" and add a couple of users to it. I'm guessing this should NOT be a system group and that I should use the groupadd command. I don't understand the point of additional parameters like password (do groups have passwords??) or --key or --root | 21:14 |
| jaith | NOTE: the point of this group is to set permissions for a git repo I'd like to host via SSH | 21:14 |
| k1l_ | byaruhaf: seems lik bug 841409 | 21:14 |
| ubottu | bug 841409 in gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu Precise) "GEdit is the only choice as Calendar application in Default Applications dialog" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/841409 | 21:14 |

| foreign3 | (-a) | 21:45 |
| foreign3 | " lsb_release -d >> Description:Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS" so that is OK. | 21:46 |
| k1l_ | 3.13 is a enablement stack kernel, right? | 21:47 |
| kokut | Hello is there a way to disable the system logs? its parking my freaking hard drive every 5 seconds and it's driving me ****** nuts | 21:47 |
| foreign3 | I believe that it is, yes. | 21:47 |
| hkrrsx | foreign3: Forgive me if you've already tried this but what happens if you run " sudo aptitude build-dep texlive-binaries " ? | 21:48 |
| hkrrsx | Just to see if it'll install those depends | 21:48 |
| foreign3 | hkrrsx, I have not tried it. I will try it now. | 21:49 |
| k1l_ | foreign3: only exit path i see no is to try a "sudo apt-get install -f" but that will force that to install. so maybe it breaks more than is broken now. | 21:49 |
| foreign3 | hkrrsx, it is installing "some stuff" just a moment. | 21:50 |
| foreign3 | k1l_, I tried this already. | 21:50 |
| foreign3 | -f returns 0 packages. | 21:50 |
| foreign3 | "0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade." | 21:50 |
| hkrrsx | foreign3: Can you pastebin the output of that "some stuff" when it's done ? | 21:50 |
| hkrrsx | I'd like to see what it's installing | 21:50 |
| kokut | please anyone knows how to turn of system logs? | 21:52 |
| kokut | i'm not using them | 21:52 |
| foreign3 | http://pastebin.com/QEjfZt1X | 21:52 |
| kokut | and its parking my drive every 5 seconds and i can hear the clicking sound | 21:52 |
| hkrrsx | Thanks | 21:52 |
| hkrrsx | foreign3: Care to try the same for gcc-4.4 ? | 21:53 |
| hkrrsx | sudo aptitude build-dep gcc-4.4 | 21:53 |
| === kalen_not-here is now known as kalen | ||
| hkrrsx | And then afterwards, sudo apt-get install gcc-4.4 | 21:53 |
| foreign3 | nope. | 21:54 |
| hkrrsx | Nope? Meaning? | 21:54 |
| foreign3 | http://pastebin.com/9qzF9Wxn | 21:54 |
| kokut | nvm found a solution turning off power management for the drive :) | 21:54 |
| hkrrsx | Ah | 21:54 |
| foreign3 | (sorry I wanted to pastebin it first) | 21:54 |
| hkrrsx | Understood | 21:55 |
| hkrrsx | sudo apt-get install texlive-base texlive-binaries | 21:55 |
| foreign3 | http://pastebin.com/2neasJmQ | 21:57 |
| foreign3 | that created a lot of new config files. It also installed 'eperl' . | 21:57 |
| nda_ | I've tried to follow various guides on making Ubuntu work with NetBIOS names. I basically just want to access the Linux box using the hostname from a Windows box. I've installed samba and even winbind, but nothing seems to work as expected. :( For example, this didn't help me: http://ppanyukov.github.io/2011/08/17/hostname-resolve.html | 21:58 |
| hkrrsx | Indeed it did ... sudo apt-get install gcc-4.4 again, please | 21:58 |
| nda_ | Any ideas? :\ | 21:58 |
| foreign3 | at this point "udo apt-get build-dep texlive-full" said "0 to upgrade, 0 to new install, 0..,0..." | 21:59 |
| hkrrsx | Right, that's b/c that command is only building the dependencies for texlive-full | 21:59 |
| foreign3 | still nope I am afraid. (I p-b now) | 21:59 |
| milehigh | what is the command I enter on command line to open the GUI update manager? | 22:00 |
| k1l_ | milehigh: update-manager is the command | 22:00 |
| milehigh | thanks | 22:00 |
| foreign3 | http://pastebin.com/G73ntSvB | 22:03 |
| foreign3 | (sorry my internet connection froze) | 22:03 |
| arno_ | Hey there, do you know if I can have opengl es2 with nvidia drivers? | 22:04 |
| hkrrsx | Ok, so you've got the dependencies for texlive-base and texlive-binaries installed ...... what about now doing sudo apt-get install texlive-base and texlive-binaries ? The install should go really fast if it works now | 22:05 |
| foreign3 | the same as before. | 22:06 |
| hkrrsx | Build-dependencies for gcc-4.4 could not be satisfied ? | 22:06 |
| foreign3 | http://pastebin.com/VHnbhQ9e | 22:07 |
| foreign3 | no they could not. | 22:07 |
| nda_ | Regarding my problem, I was finally able to ping the Linux hostname from Windows after disabling the firewall. | 22:07 |
| hkrrsx | foreign3: Try this: sudo apt-cache policy gcc | 22:08 |
| hkrrsx | What does the line for " Installed " say ? | 22:08 |
| foreign3 | gcc-4.4 wants texlive-binaries anyway. | 22:08 |
| foreign3 | Installed: 4:4.6.3-1ubuntu5 | 22:08 |
| existme | Hi | 22:11 |
| existme | Could anyone help me with a driver installation? | 22:11 |
| hkrrsx | foreign3: Last thing that comes to mind is a semi-dangerous " sudo aptitude full-upgrade " | 22:12 |
| hkrrsx | That'll upgrade ALL packages and potentially remove some old ones | 22:12 |
| veritablej | anyone else had ubuntu-geoip-provider running 100% cpu and never finishing? | 22:12 |
| foreign3 | I haven't seen this option just a moment. | 22:13 |
| hkrrsx | foreign3: I'd say run a simulation first ..... " sudo aptitude -s full-upgrade " | 22:13 |
| hkrrsx | The -s is for Simulate | 22:13 |
| foreign3 | I can't seem to be able to run that command. | 22:14 |

| foreign3 | (I have to replace it with apt-get) | 22:15 |
| EriC^^ | Bray90820: 500mb maybe | 22:15 |
| Bray90820 | Patero-ng: were you talking to me? | 22:15 |
| bekks | Bray90820: 512M | 22:15 |
| [n0mad] | my boot partition is 512MB | 22:16 |
| Patero-ng | Bray90820 no I was talking to him | 22:16 |
| [n0mad] | sorry, 524MB | 22:16 |
| hkrrsx | Ok, apt-get dist-upgrade would be the equivalent, I believe | 22:16 |
| existme | I am trying to install AMD Ati Radeon HD 4870 Driver which is no longer supported by AMD. Anyone knows how to do it? | 22:16 |
| Bray90820 | Would it be odd if a 200MB /boot partition became full | 22:16 |
| EriC^^ | Bray90820: that's about 4 kernels | 22:17 |
| foreign3 | hkrrsx, do you mean 'dist-upgrade' ? | 22:17 |
| EriC^^ | so yeah that could happen | 22:17 |
| hkrrsx | I thought that's what I said, no? | 22:18 |
| Bray90820 | EriC^^: I looked at it and it papers that about 55% of it is being used by fonts | 22:18 |
| foreign3 | hkrrsx, I think you said 'full'. I did not know they are the same. | 22:18 |
| foreign3 | in any case : "0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade." | 22:18 |
| foreign3 | both with '-s' and without. | 22:19 |
| hkrrsx | foreign3: Yeah, aptitude was full-upgrade, apt-get was dist-upgrade | 22:19 |

| Bray9082_ | EriC^^: I can't seem to install updates because boot is full | 22:30 |
| foreign3 | hkrrsx, I tried synaptic to check the status of packages, none comes up as broken. | 22:30 |
| hkrrsx | Interesting | 22:30 |
| EriC^^ | Bray9082_: ok, type sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.16.0-{23,30,31}-generic | 22:30 |
| foreign3 | Given that this installation obviously has "issues" I will opt to reinstall all manually installed packages. | 22:31 |
| foreign3 | I am sure this will properly mess up my system or sort something out. | 22:32 |
| EriC^^ | foreign3: what issues? | 22:32 |
| foreign3 | EriC^^, like being unable to install texlive-binaries and as a result being unable to install gcc-4.4. | 22:33 |
| Bray9082_ | EriC^^: should I try to install updates after I purge the kernel | 22:33 |
| EriC^^ | Bray9082_: you could, yes | 22:33 |
| EriC^^ | Bray9082_: try rebooting into the newer kernel if you want | 22:34 |
| foreign3 | EriC^^, I really need pdflatex for my work at this point. | 22:34 |
| EriC^^ | foreign3: why can't you install texlive-binaries? | 22:35 |
| foreign3 | "E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages." | 22:36 |

| hkrrsx | foreign3: A thought that just came to mind .... what about upgrading to 14.04 LTS? These PreDepends messages say that the required versions of the software is newer than what's available in your repositories | 22:59 |
| LeDuke | ki7mt, I tried that but it just stalls! | 22:59 |
| foreign3 | it is an 7 year old system that even 7 years back was not top of the pops.... | 23:00 |
| EriC^^ | 14.04 is actually quicker than 12.04 | 23:00 |
| ki7mt | LeDuke, ok, well here's the official Ubuntu version, I didn't do an exhaustive search though: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Midi/SoftwareSynthesisHowTo | 23:00 |
| foreign3 | OK. | 23:00 |
| foreign3 | anyway I need to work a bit eventually today. Thank you k1l_, hkrrsx and EriC^^ for your time. | 23:02 |
