| ebonics | i thought thats what the default ubuntu image viewer was called | 00:20 |
| EriC^^ | oh | 00:20 |
| ebonics | at first i thought the files were corrupted but they are fine on my windows box | 00:20 |
| EriC^^ | do they open in the image viewer? | 00:21 |

| ebonics | so there's no real fix for this huh EriC^^ ? | 00:28 |
| EriC^^ | i've no idea | 00:29 |
| ebonics | it's not a big problem anyway. i'm sort of bummed out it's only a problem with the driver | 00:29 |
| ebonics | cause i'm trying to send the image to a service on my windows box but the service is basically a black box and not working properly when i send it from ubuntu :| | 00:30 |
| ebonics | i was hoping it was something to do with the bug | 00:30 |
| ebonics | although, it actually could be couldnt it? | 00:30 |
| EriC^^ | how so? | 00:31 |
| ebonics | internally, if the application has to render the image before sending it would it break due to this bug? | 00:31 |

| kortum | I unplugged my other hard drives and plugged in a new 2TB to install ubuntu on, but now i want grub so i can select which OS i want to use | 01:02 |
| kortum | because ive been drinking | 01:02 |

| LeDuke | gimme sum then | 01:03 |
| daftykins | kortum: plug 'em in and run boot-repair | 01:04 |
| kortum | OR, I was thinking i could just change the boot order, when i want windows put that drive first, and when i want ubuntu put that hard drive firs | 01:04 |
| daftykins | kortum: but you would have had to have installed both 8 and ubuntu in EFI Mode | 01:04 |

| millerti | Something nuts is going on here. I have this program. When I run it on my Sandy Bridge based Mac, it uses 22 Watts at 3.1GHz and takes 26 seconds. When I run it on my Ivy Bridge server (running Ubuntu), it runs at 3.5GHz, uses 42 watts, and takes 52 seconds. Does that make ANY sense? | 01:18 |
| millerti | It's SSE vectorized neural net code. | 01:18 |
| blackflow | millerti: the frequency isn't really a guarantee of same performance, what cpus are those? | 01:20 |
| daftykins | claiming to know the power draw seems a bit dubious? | 01:21 |
| millerti | blackflow: The Mac is a 2.3GHz quad core Sandy Bridge. The Intel Power Meter says it's running at 3.1GHz and using 22 Watts. The server is a 2.7GHz 12-core Ivy Bridge Xeon, boosting to 3.5GHz. IPMI tools report it using 42 watts higher than idle. | 01:22 |
| millerti | The power is less important than the fact that my old Sandy Bridge is running this twice as fast as the new Ivy Bridge Xeon. | 01:23 |
| millerti | The Sandy Bridge is a notebook processor. | 01:23 |
| blackflow | millerti: what cpu models are they? | 01:23 |

| superkuh | I'm just baffled. The proprietary driver install mechanism has never failed silently on me in the past. | 01:48 |
| superkuh | I suppose my next step is just going back to the open source driver and purging everything again. | 01:48 |
| daftykins | superkuh: do you maybe have some cruft left behind from the other? | 01:48 |
| superkuh | I must. | 01:48 |

| ebonics | i'm just struggling :( | 02:21 |
| tedwardut | there is always compiling your own kernel :) | 02:21 |
| tedwardut | though I am afraid I have not used Ubuntu in years, been on arch or gentoo, and things are setup differently on those distros | 02:22 |
| ebonics | i have a higher level problem im trying to fix, im using the box for something rly specific but there's a problem with something graphics related (i think). and i just want to try to see if i can get it working quick and easy | 02:22 |
| === Matthew is now known as Guest69283 | ||
| ebonics | but nothing for me with linux is quick and easy | 02:22 |
| ebonics | it's literally a struggle every single time haha | 02:23 |
| tedwardut | yes, well flexibility does come at a cost | 02:24 |
| happyfr0gg | <ebonics> Linux is not supposed to be "quick and easy". If one wants that they can spend their hard-earned money for Winblows or MAC. | 02:24 |
| ebonics | happyfr0gg, that seems like some ideological nonsense :P | 02:25 |
| tedwardut | yes, but you can get burned hard by both of those, at least in linux you normally can fix it yourself | 02:25 |
| ebonics | happyfr0gg, don't you think that statement is kind of elitist? | 02:26 |
| === `hypermist` is now known as sleepypc | ||
| tedwardut | ebonics, part of it is that linux does things a bit differently than windows or Mac, but if you work with it for awhile I think you will find that linux is easier and gives you more freedom | 02:28 |
| ebonics | and by the way i wasn't trying to bash linux :) i was mainly just commenting about how bad i am at it | 02:28 |
| LeDuke | buh bye pontificators | 02:28 |
| === sleepypc is now known as `hypermist` | ||
| ebonics | tedwardut, i've used linux as my main OS for a while. it's just i never bothered to read docs or anything. i'd just carry on with my business same as if i was on windows or something else :) | 02:30 |
| happyfr0gg | If one wants absolute freedom, it requires the dedication of opening their mind to the power that Linux offers in regards to technology. It requires them to understand how it works, how to troubleshoot it and bash script solutions to their problems. It sounds a lot like what the US Constitution offers. With knowledge is great power and great power requires great responsibility. | 02:31 |
| daftykins | whilst you guys convo is lovely, this channel is the support one and the general chat should be over in say, #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:31 |
| bratty_cat | Doesn't seem like the constitution helps so much anymore though. | 02:32 |
| tedwardut | my apologies daftykins, I should of read te room description | 02:32 |
| ronkrt | I have a vps with ubuntu 14.04 how do i down grade python 3.4 to 3.3 | 02:32 |
| OerHeks | ronkrt, not. you will break your system. | 02:32 |
| daftykins | happyfr0gg: please, US politics is the last thing that should be brought up in an OS support channel :P | 02:32 |
| rgb-one | ronkrt: why would you want to do that? | 02:32 |
| daftykins | one does not downgrade | 02:33 |
| bratty_cat | purge and reintstall 3.3 ? | 02:33 |
| ronkrt | The django framework and app I'm using needs 3.3 | 02:33 |
| ebonics | happyfr0gg, i'd be more inclined to agree if there weren't any devs getting funded to bugfix etc | 02:33 |
| ronkrt | Errors with 3.4 | 02:33 |
| ebonics | oops sry daftykins | 02:33 |
| tedwardut | does ubuntu allow you to install multiple python instances? | 02:33 |
| rgb-one | tedwardut: python 2 and 3 | 02:34 |
| OerHeks | tedwardut, ubuntu has, 2.7 and 3.4 | 02:34 |
| RedPenguin | hey all | 02:34 |
| superkuh | https://xkcd.com/349/ https://xkcd.com/963/ | 02:34 |
| rgb-one | ronkrt: are you developing the application? If so maybe you can troubleshoot a few of those problems. | 02:35 |
| tedwardut | ronkrt is it just for that one app? | 02:35 |
| OerHeks | superkuh, please don't. | 02:35 |
| happyfr0gg | I was not trying to imply politics. Okay, I am ending the discussion. Now on to something else. | 02:35 |
| jason__ | There's something called virtualenv for python that allows you to maintain multiple separate python sandboxes. | 02:35 |
| rgb-one | jason__: can different versions of python be used within that sandbox? | 02:36 |
| RedPenguin | Anybody ever heard of MouseKeys randomly disabling, but especially if the USB keyboard is accidentally unplugged and plugged back in? | 02:37 |
| jason__ | I'm not sure what you mean. You can pick which version you use. I've never tried to use a version of python I didn't have installed on the system, though. I'm not sure how that would work. | 02:37 |
| RedPenguin | One minute mousekeys is on then like hours later I use the PC again and they are off | 02:37 |
| rgb-one | RedPenguin: Mouse buttons? | 02:38 |
| RedPenguin | well yea the mouse you use the keyboard numberpad for | 02:38 |
| rgb-one | RedPenguin: maybe on reboot they turn off, similar to numlock | 02:39 |
| jason__ | I've had a weird problem recently where my password doesn't work when I come back to a locked screen. | 02:40 |
| jason__ | but if I hit switch users and switch back it works | 02:40 |
| jason__ | (I'm typing it very carefully, caps lock isn't on, etc) | 02:40 |
| rgb-one | jason__: what keyboard layout do you use? | 02:41 |
| Cluri | Hello | 02:42 |
| Guest90328 | i have a problem with my cd/dvd drive on ubuntu | 02:42 |
| jason__ | I guess "English (US)" is the proper name | 02:42 |
| tedwardut | Guest90328, what is your problem? | 02:42 |
| Guest90328 | ok iam on ubuntu and i got a RPi raspberry pi well i bought a led touvhscreen for it and a dvd with raspi image on it but i put it in the drive and my laptop cannot read it i get (error splicing file: input/output error) | 02:45 |
| daftykins | wat. | 02:46 |
| Guest90328 | exactly | 02:46 |
| daftykins | no i mean you :) | 02:46 |
| Cluri | I have had my desktop on Ubuntu for about a year now, but I have never used it much due to using my windows laptop more. I have been trying to get remote access working from my Windows 8 laptop to my ubuntu desktop. I finally got it working a couple of days ago, and it worked without a hitch yesterday. Today however when I got home and attempted to remote connect through TightVNC and Bitvise, | 02:46 |
| Cluri | neither would work stating that the host had "Actively refused" the connection. It is also blocking connection to the Minecraft server running on it that has never had an issue before today. As far as I know nothing has been changed on it between last night and today. Any ideas? | 02:46 |
| Guest90328 | i cannot get the image off the dvd to wright to a sd carf | 02:46 |
| Guest90328 | card | 02:46 |
| daftykins | why are you putting it on a DVD if it needs to go on an SD card? | 02:47 |
| Guest90328 | the touchscreen came with a raspi OS but on a dvd | 02:47 |
| jason__ | You can download an sd card image for a raspberry pi. It's not that large. | 02:47 |
| tedwardut | Cluri, when you got it working were you on a LAN? | 02:47 |
| daftykins | Guest90328: ask them for support, this doesn't seem like an ubuntu support query | 02:48 |
| Cluri | Yes. My network is a simple home wired/wireless network with my desktop, laptop, xbox, blueray, and a couple of phones on it. Belkin AC750 router. | 02:48 |
| Guest90328 | i have raspi but it dosent support the touchscreen the dvd has the image for the touch screen but i cannot pull it off the dvd | 02:48 |
| tedwardut | Cluri, sounds like without knowing your setup that either your Ubuntu box or possibly your Belkin router has a firewall running to block remote connections form the internet but to allow them locally | 02:49 |
| Cluri | Guest, I can almost garuntee the manufacture's website has a digital copy of the software you can download | 02:49 |
| rgb-one | Guest90328: are you using an external dvd drive? | 02:49 |
| Guest90328 | i have looked for the image on line but cannot fine it for my touchscreen i have the 3.5 i only found one for 3.2" and it dosent work | 02:49 |
| tedwardut | I would look into chasing down what the firewalls settings are | 02:49 |
| Guest90328 | nope iv check shitty coustomer support | 02:49 |
| Guest90328 | no its internal | 02:49 |
| rgb-one | Guest90328: so it doesn't read the dvd? | 02:50 |
| Guest90328 | its a 3.5" waveshare spotpare (A) led touchscreen | 02:50 |
| Cluri | Ted, I am still on my local network. It worked through my LAN yesterday (Minecraft worked externally as well) but today on my LAN none of my remote connections are working | 02:50 |
| OerHeks | Guest90328, check the dvd on an other machine, if it does not work, return it for replacement | 02:50 |
| tedwardut | not from your windows laptop either? | 02:50 |
| daftykins | Cluri: sounds like the host isn't even there. ping the IP. | 02:50 |
| Cluri | Correct Ted | 02:51 |
| Guest90328 | no it read it but when i try to extract it i get ( error splicing file : input/output error) | 02:51 |
| tedwardut | Cluri, any firmware updates to your router? | 02:51 |
| Cluri | Litterally same exact setup as I had less than 20 hours ago | 02:51 |
| rgb-one | Guest90328: how do you try to extract it? | 02:51 |
| Guest90328 | same thing on a windows box | 02:51 |
| Guest90328 | archive manager | 02:51 |
| Cluri | Ted no. | 02:51 |
| Guest90328 | should i try raspberrypi channel? | 02:52 |
| tedwardut | Cluri tried rebooting your router? | 02:52 |
| keith_ | squarefree_keith | 02:52 |
| OerHeks | Cluri, tried to reboot your router? soho routers happen to crash sometimes, too little memory. | 02:52 |
| Guest90328 | this was my first stop iv had many issues solve here i love this place | 02:52 |
| Cluri | It is probably worth mentioning i had a hell of a time setting up the TightVNC connection in the first place, took me 2 nights of troubleshooting to get it to work, and even then it was a luck thing (Wont get into the luck) | 02:53 |
| tedwardut | Cluri, what is your use case? there may be better/easier solutions than VNC | 02:53 |
| Cluri | Ted, you know, thats the one thing I havent tried. Never even thought of interupting my wife's netflix lol. | 02:53 |
| OerHeks | Guest90328, good luck with your dvd, it is not an ubuntu issue as it happens on 'windows' too. | 02:54 |
| RedPenguin | rgb-one: well for some reason not even a reboot, I just walk away from the PC while on and like an hour later they are off | 02:54 |
| RedPenguin | actually a reboot turns them back on again | 02:54 |
| Cluri | Simply at the moment I only use the desktop as a minecraft server I am setting up for me and a friend to play around on. | 02:54 |
| Guest90328 | oerheks: i figure that but thought id have luck here | 02:54 |
| Cluri | The remote access is so that I can administer the server from anywhere. | 02:54 |
| tedwardut | if that is all, I would just ssh into it | 02:54 |
| Guest90328 | ok iam trying a dvd movie i should have earler | 02:55 |
| jason__ | Guest90328, there's supposedly a download link here: http://www.amazon.com/forum/-/TxLBLUPNBFG4JI/ref=ask_dp_dpmw_al_hza?asin=B00OZLG2YS | 02:55 |
| tedwardut | you can use PUTTY on windows, just make sure the sshd service is configured correctly | 02:55 |
| Cluri | I am not as comfortable with command line. And my forge server is not able to be actively controlled through ssh | 02:55 |
| Cluri | Through ssh all i can do is start the server. | 02:56 |
| Cluri | at least as far as my limited exp with cli | 02:56 |
| tedwardut | on the command line you can type ssh username@ipaddress | 02:56 |
| tedwardut | it will prompt for your password and you are in | 02:56 |
| Guest90328 | i put a dvd movie in and it wont work | 02:57 |
| tedwardut | I have no idea how easy minecraft is to manage from the command line, but when I ran counter-strike servers back in the day that is how I did it | 02:57 |
| daftykins | it tends to be a script ran in screen, which is just calling java | 02:57 |
| rgb-one | Guest90328: you can use the dd command to copy the disk image to an iso | 02:57 |
| rgb-one | Guest90328: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=image_name.iso | 02:58 |
| rgb-one | Guest90328: Use with caution | 02:58 |
| jason__ | Guest90328, did you see the link I posted? | 02:58 |
| OerHeks | jason +1 | 02:58 |
| Guest90328 | iam not that comftorable with command lind id have to look up a tutorial | 02:58 |
| ebonics | i keep getting this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10797077/ - although i ran apt-get install xutils-dev ? | 02:58 |
| tedwardut | daftykins, ah, then ssh will work well for his use case | 02:58 |
| Guest90328 | jason__: yes downloading it now | 02:58 |
| Guest90328 | have you tryed this? | 02:59 |
| jason__ | Guest90328, no. I don't have this device. I just googled it :P | 02:59 |
| Guest90328 | daftykins hello how are you you helped me with a problem few weeks ago | 02:59 |
| Guest90328 | jason__: i strayed away from amazon tought it was jsut a link to buy the screen | 03:00 |
| tedwardut | wb Cluri | 03:01 |
| Cluri | Hey sorry, middle of our chat I got disconnected. Thats another issue I have to take up with charter... | 03:01 |
| ebonics | i dont understand :( do i have to build xorg-macros from source as opposed to just downloading the package? | 03:01 |
| Cluri | But while net was out, took the opp to restart router | 03:01 |
| rgb-one | ebonics: download the package | 03:02 |
| ebonics | rgb-one, i did :/ | 03:02 |
| tedwardut | Cluri, improvements? | 03:02 |
| Cluri | OMG! I cannot believe it. I was pulling my hair out, and like usual, it was the simplest fix! | 03:02 |
| rgb-one | ebonics: whats the problem? | 03:02 |
| Guest90328 | jason__: looks as though that download link isnt good still havent started yet just line going from left to right over and over sating unknown time remining | 03:02 |
| tedwardut | Glad it worked Cluri! | 03:02 |
| ebonics | rgb-one, i keep getting this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10797077/ (even though i ran apt-get install xutils-dev) | 03:02 |
| === BlackoutIsHere is now known as BlackoutIsHere|O | ||
| Cluri | So am I!!! You guys are my hero, especially you Ted! | 03:03 |
| jason__ | Guest90328, that may just mean the site didn't tell your browser how big the file was | 03:03 |
| Guest90328 | ok | 03:04 |
| OerHeks | Guest90328, patience, it is comming from a google-drive 998 mb | 03:04 |
| tedwardut | Cluri, I think we have all been there before | 03:04 |
| Cluri | I am leaving this IRC readily available from now on! | 03:04 |
| rgb-one | ebonics: have you rebooted? | 03:04 |
| deper29 | okay, I kind of messed my system up a bit. I wanted to switch to a new hard drive, so I rsync'd my root over to a new drive. I had to edit my /etc/fstab and my grub config to point to the proper hard drives, but I'm still having an issue. Anytime I plug in a removable USB drive, if I try to access the contents it says I don't have permission to view the contents. Any ideas? | 03:04 |
| ebonics | rgb-one, nah i'll try now | 03:04 |
| Cluri | Trying to slowly get more familiar with linux. | 03:04 |
| Guest90328 | yea googel says file exceeds max limit google can scan | 03:05 |
| Cluri | But Ted, while im on, you had mentioned there might be simpler methods than vnc. Other than SSH, were there any others that i might find? | 03:05 |
| Guest90328 | ill wait | 03:05 |
| OerHeks | Guest90328, just finished downloading here, no problem | 03:05 |
| OerHeks | ugh, a .rar | 03:06 |
| ebonics | rgb-one, still same error :( | 03:07 |
| rgb-one | deper29: where is it mounted to? | 03:07 |
| TallestManOnErth | im gay | 03:07 |
| OerHeks | !ot | TallestManOnErth | 03:08 |
| ubottu | TallestManOnErth: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 03:08 |
| tedwardut | Cluri give me a few, let me see if I can dig up a list | 03:08 |
| rgb-one | ebonics: run sudo apt-get update | 03:08 |
| ebonics | rgb-one, i did :( | 03:08 |
| Guest90328 | really tallestmanonearth | 03:08 |
| ebonics | ill try running it again after reboot | 03:08 |
| ebonics | nah no luck rgb-one | 03:08 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: uhhh, it looks like it mounts to to be honest | 03:09 |
| TallestManOnErth | im more gay now that I read that | 03:09 |
| TallestManOnErth | you are making me super gay | 03:09 |
| deper29 | ***I'm not sure where it mounts to | 03:09 |
| Guest90328 | go to #isis they love gays | 03:09 |
| rgb-one | ebonics: usually it is mounted to /media/your_username | 03:10 |
| OerHeks | Guest90328, stop it please. | 03:10 |
| ebonics | rgb-one, you mean deper29 ? | 03:10 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: I think that was upposed to be directed at me. | 03:10 |
| rgb-one | ebonics: yea | 03:10 |
| Guest90328 | that google drive link still havesnt started downloadded | 03:10 |
| ebonics | :) | 03:10 |
| TBotNik | All: Repeating: getting weird errors from mysql so documented at: http://pastebin.com/hgGpAbmK can anyone help? | 03:11 |
| rgb-one | deper29: you can manually mount it | 03:11 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: it says I don't have the necessary permissions to view the contents of /media/deper29 when I navigate to there through Nautilus | 03:11 |
| jason__ | Guest90328, are you sure it hasn't started? It started for me, but didn't say how big the file was, so the browser doesn't know a percentage. It will just know when it's done. | 03:11 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: they should be automounting though. | 03:11 |
| rgb-one | deper29: indeed | 03:11 |
| OerHeks | jason__, that page says 988 mb :-) | 03:11 |
| rgb-one | deper29: something to do with the fstab configuration | 03:11 |
| deper29 | I'm not too sure what I broke :S Is there something else I should be editing? | 03:12 |
| deper29 | my fstab configuration appears to be fine. I have the correct UUIDs according to blkid | 03:12 |
| rgb-one | I will check my default and post it | 03:12 |
| jason__ | Yeah, I mean the web server that's serving the file apparently didn't send the size along with the header for the download. | 03:12 |
| Guest90328 | jason__: im on firefox the blue arrow isnt blue at all and it still says unknow time reamining but the 000mb keeps climbing | 03:12 |
| jason__ | Guest90328, yeah it sounds like it's working | 03:13 |
| OerHeks | TBotNik, so your user is named 'files'? >> /home/files/Dropbox/Projects/EM/em_dio/em_dio.php | 03:13 |
| Guest90328 | ok so just wait? | 03:13 |
| jason__ | Guest90328, yeah, when it reaches 988mb it will be done | 03:13 |
| jason__ | (or however large it was) | 03:13 |
| OerHeks | TBotNik, i would use> /home/$USER/files/Dropbox/Projects/EM/em_dio/em_dio.php | 03:14 |
| OerHeks | would work for any user | 03:14 |
| Guest90328 | iv had this touch screen for a month now and havent got it working i trying circiutbasic tutorial and they claim it works but i did step by step and got nothing | 03:14 |
| TBotNik | OerHeks: No I have no user named 'files' | 03:14 |
| Guest90328 | its just super irritating | 03:15 |
| OerHeks | TBotNik, there you go | 03:15 |
| Guest90328 | i know its just a driver but iam a windows <linux convert and not the best .....YET | 03:15 |
| Guest90328 | i went to linux for the openness the freedom to do more then what windows lets you do | 03:16 |
| Ben64 | Guest90328: you're on raspberry pi? | 03:17 |
| Guest90328 | i get drawn to seeing how and why computers do what they do | 03:17 |
| deper29 | Guest90328: freedom, hmph. touch screens, hmph. A linux neckbeard craves not these things. | 03:17 |
| Guest90328 | no iam on ubuntu but iam trying to get my RPi to work | 03:18 |
| Ben64 | Guest90328: so your question is about a raspberry pi | 03:18 |
| Guest90328 | yes | 03:18 |
| deper29 | Guest90328: what is your issue on the rPi? | 03:18 |
| Guest90328 | i know i know | 03:18 |
| Ben64 | Guest90328: then you should be asking in #raspberrypi ... | 03:18 |
| Ben64 | Guest90328: if you know you know, then why are you not you not | 03:18 |
| rgb-one | deper29: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10797197/ compare it to yours | 03:18 |
| OerHeks | Guest90328, please don't bother us with non-ubuntu-related issues | 03:18 |
| Guest90328 | but ive found soooooo much help here just thought id try there | 03:19 |
| Ben64 | Guest90328: this channel is great... for ubuntu issues | 03:19 |
| TBotNik | OerHeks: Changed that to 'path' to not confuse anyone! | 03:20 |
| deper29 | I've gotten none Ubuntu related issues solved here before. I'm just careful to word them so that they are generic Linux questions so people don't try to shoo me away right away. | 03:20 |
| Guest90328 | well iam on ubuntu and many intellagent people here so this is my go to ... i do not mean disrespect to anyone so doet take it that way | 03:20 |
| deper29 | er, Guest90328 ^ | 03:20 |
| Ben64 | deper29: we don't solve linux problems either, don't try to trick people here, its not nice | 03:20 |
| TBotNik | All: Back to my problem: Getting weird errors from mysql. Started with no change to code, so documented at: http://pastebin.com/hgGpAbmK can anyone help? | 03:21 |
| deper29 | Ben64: maybe you don't, but don't speak collectively for everyone. I've had problems that aren't Ubuntu specific. Example, right now my /etc/fstab issue. I happen to be on Ubuntu, but every Linux distro has that, so it's not a unique problem to just Ubuntu users :/ | 03:21 |
| Ben64 | deper29: this channel, is for Ubuntu only. anything else is not on topic | 03:21 |
| deper29 | Ben64: so only Ubuntu has an /etc/fstab, that's what you're telling me? | 03:22 |
| rgb-one | Guest90328: try the dd command I mentioned earlier | 03:22 |
| Ben64 | deper29: i'm saying this channel is only for Ubuntu technical support | 03:23 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: my /etc/fstab is exactly the same as yours, but different UUIDs | 03:23 |
| chickenwings | im bisexual | 03:23 |
| rgb-one | Guest90328: insert the cd -> open a terminal -> dd if=/dev/cdrom of=rpi_img.iso -> ensure you typed the correct thing -> click enter | 03:24 |
| Guest90328 | ok to please Ben64 assholeness ill move to #raspberrypi | 03:24 |
| Ben64 | Guest90328: you can call it what you like, but this channel is for Ubuntu only. | 03:25 |
| Guest90328 | do you speak for everyone here? | 03:25 |
| Ben64 | read the topic | 03:25 |
| deper29 | Guest90328: no need to call names. I wouldn't take it too seriously. In my experience with Linux, if someone doesn't know how to help, they'll tell you to go elsewhere. I'm guessing Ben64 is originally an Arch user | 03:25 |
| OerHeks | Guest90328, time to read the topic and channelrules. | 03:26 |
| xangua | Guest90328: no, but you do not insult people here | 03:26 |
| TiK | ubuntu is super easy | 03:26 |
| OerHeks | deper29, drop it please. | 03:26 |
| Guest90328 | if you know linux you know linux just thougt peeps could help no offense | 03:26 |
| deper29 | OerHeks: sorry, I'm done. | 03:26 |
| TiK | Guest90328: help with? | 03:26 |
| deper29 | Guest90328: pm me, I'll help you. | 03:26 |
| Ben64 | Guest90328: there is a ##linux channel for Linux support. this is #ubuntu ... for Ubuntu support. There are many many channels for certain topics, you need to use the correct ones | 03:27 |
| chickenwings | ubuntu is pretty much linux written in ebonics | 03:27 |
| chickenwings | if you don't like it you can try kubuntu | 03:27 |
| ebonics | uwot | 03:27 |
| chickenwings | which is the same thing | 03:27 |
| chickenwings | with tablet drivers | 03:27 |
| Guest90328 | deper pm'd | 03:28 |
| bratty_cat | kubuntu is too bloated for my tastes. | 03:28 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: any other ideas why things wouldn't be mounting? Because rsync should have copied my permissions over | 03:29 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | if I could get rEFInd installed properly it would be amazing | 03:29 |
| Guest90328 | Ben64: so my dvd drive on ubuntu not rading a dvd isnt a ubuntu issue? | 03:30 |
| rgb-one | deper29: maybe some applications are still referencing the old UUID | 03:30 |
| Ben64 | Guest90328: you said raspberry pi | 03:30 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: any idea how to find that out? I searched a bit through dmesg output and didn't see anything useful | 03:31 |
| millerti | Egad. An upgrade from 13.x to 14.04 is going to take longer to install than to download. | 03:32 |
| Guest90328 | the dvd contains a raspi image | 03:33 |
| xangua | rading¿ | 03:33 |
| Guest90328 | if you would hear my issuse instaed of dismissing it you woulf have known | 03:33 |
| Ben64 | Guest90328: i asked if the problem was with a raspberry pi, and you said yes | 03:33 |
| Guest90328 | in context it is | 03:34 |
| OerHeks | Guest90328, go on downloading that rar file and be happy | 03:34 |
| rgb-one | deper29: you copied the entire contents of the drive right? | 03:34 |
| Guest90328 | still hasent shown anything different | 03:35 |
| chickenwings | why are you using a raspberry pi? | 03:35 |
| chickenwings | use an arduino, or a beagleboard, or an intel galileo | 03:36 |
| chickenwings | or a pic | 03:36 |
| chickenwings | or a cellphone | 03:36 |
| chickenwings | or a pda | 03:36 |
| chickenwings | or anything but the overhyped raspberry pi | 03:36 |
| Ben64 | chickenwings: please stop | 03:36 |
| TBotNik | All: Repeating: getting weird errors from mysql so documented at: http://pastebin.com/hgGpAbmK can anyone help? Know this is not ubuntu issue, but if you know the answer please join me on #mysql and expound! Thanks! | 03:37 |
| rgb-one | deper29: I think it could be that you have copied only the content of the drive. I don't think the partition layout is copied to the other drive as well | 03:37 |
| Guest90328 | why is your name chickenwings? perfrence i just playing around trying to learn what is with all the hostility here? | 03:38 |
| chickenwings | oh this? | 03:38 |
| chickenwings | I stopped at popeyes on the way home and ordered a basket of 16 wings | 03:38 |
| chickenwings | honey glazed, cajun, etc | 03:39 |
| OerHeks | Guest90328, chickenwings stop it, we try to keep this channel clear for UBUNTU support. you know where to go for chitchat. | 03:39 |
| chickenwings | nice little bowl of dirty rice and a biscuit too | 03:39 |
| chickenwings | oh, I'll quit | 03:39 |
| chickenwings | hey, he asked me | 03:39 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: yeah. I did 'rsync -av /mnt/oldroot/ /mnt/newroot/' from a live USB. I setup the partition tables on the new harddrive with parted before I did this | 03:39 |
| Guest90328 | ubuntu: a quality that includes the essential human virtues; compassion and humanity. the developers wounlt be happy with the people here | 03:39 |
| chickenwings | ubuntu is pretty much just linux for black people | 03:40 |

| Ben64 | Guest90328: you might want to tone down the attitude | 03:41 |
| chickenwings | doesn't feel too good, does it? | 03:41 |
| bratty_cat | well then, that's a little aggressive Guest90328 | 03:41 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | based on what ive read from http://www.rodsbooks.com/ubuntu-efi/ I need to install abootloader and im getting in over my head. | 03:42 |
| chickenwings | the support team here isn't grade A, I apologize Guest90328 | 03:42 |
| Guest90328 | i have a attitude? check what you post | 03:42 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | trying to dual boot my mac | 03:42 |
| chickenwings | most of them get pretty iffy when they can't fix your issue | 03:42 |
| deper29 | guys, hostility. Let's be calm about this | 03:42 |
| ablest1980 | 0erheks | 03:42 |
| ablest1980 | show me | 03:42 |
| OerHeks | ablest1980, old post, still valid > http://askubuntu.com/questions/2793/how-do-i-remove-or-hide-old-kernel-versions-to-clean-up-the-boot-menu >>>> > sudo apt-get remove --purge $(dpkg -l 'linux-image-*' | sed '/^ii/!d;/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\(.*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/d;s/^[^ ]* [^ ]* \([^ ]*\).*/\1/;/[0-9]/!d') | 03:42 |
| Ben64 | ablest1980: what version of ubuntu | 03:42 |
| deper29 | ablest1980: did you do a supo apt-get clean? | 03:43 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | tried installing rEFInd and no luck. after digging I need to mount ESP but in order to do that I need a boot loader lol | 03:43 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | 14.04 | 03:43 |
| ablest1980 | 14.04 lts | 03:43 |
| Ben64 | ablest1980: a "sudo apt-get autoclean" should remove the old kernels for you | 03:43 |
| ablest1980 | apt get clean doesnt work | 03:43 |
| Guest90328 | forget i said raspberry pi ubuntu wont read dvd drive | 03:43 |
| rgb-one | deper29: You copied the entire content with root privileges and as such only root can access the content of the drive. Maybe that is the problem? | 03:43 |
| Ben64 | ablest1980: "sudo apt-get autoremove" sorry i had the wrong word | 03:44 |
| jason__ | Guest90328, did the download ever finish? | 03:44 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: related to my issue, if I try to click on a .rar or a tar it says it can't mount. | 03:44 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: no, rsync -av retains all priviledges and ownership | 03:45 |
| deper29 | I also don't think I did it as root. I don't think root was required to do that. | 03:45 |
| ablest1980 | i did sudo apt-get autoclean and sudo apt-get autoremove | 03:45 |
| Guest90328 | yes it finished but its a rar do i need to extract it or jsut point the start up disk maker to it? | 03:46 |
| jason__ | I'd assume you extract it. | 03:47 |
| rgb-one | deper29: can the files be extracted from the command line? | 03:47 |
| ablest1980 | i get an error now running software updater | 03:47 |
| ablest1980 | i see a red circle and white line thru it | 03:48 |
| Guest90328 | tryed to extract it stops at 41% | 03:48 |
| guest_11336 | hi there, single boot ubuntu in uefi or does it not matter | 03:48 |
| ablest1980 | still say The upgrade needs a total of 81.8 M free space on disk '/boot'. Please free at least an additional 17.5 M of disk space on '/boot'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'. | 03:48 |
| rgb-one | guest_11336: it doesn't really but it is the standard now | 03:48 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: yeah | 03:49 |
| guest_11336 | rgb-one: thanks | 03:49 |
| deper29 | nautilus does something weird with its archive manager to extract stuff | 03:49 |
| deper29 | not sure how it works. Magic probably. | 03:49 |
| rgb-one | deper29: it seems like a gui thing | 03:49 |
| rgb-one | deper29: download dconf-editor | 03:49 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: I have that already | 03:49 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | I know my issue is a boring newb issues but id be forever grateful for even a few hints in the right direction | 03:49 |
| rgb-one | deper29: have you checked the mount settings? | 03:50 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: I haven't used dconf-editor much. Where would I check for those? | 03:50 |
| rgb-one | deper29: Check out the automounting section https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB | 03:51 |
| ablest1980 | i have a red circle with white line in the middle in my taskbar | 03:51 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: okay, I'll take a look. Thanks for everything so far :) | 03:52 |
| rgb-one | deper29: np :) | 03:52 |
| ablest1980 | ok its gone | 03:52 |
| ablest1980 | now back to the original problem | 03:53 |
| ablest1980 | The upgrade needs a total of 81.8 M free space on disk '/boot'. Please free at least an additional 17.5 M of disk space on '/boot'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean' | 03:53 |
| chickenwings | The sad truth behind this chatroom is that most of these people are supporting a faulty distro that is prone to freezing, bugs, buffer overflows and memory leaks and despite this all, instead of choosing a better distro to support, they choose ubuntu because for many of them this will be the only distro they'll use | 03:53 |
| chickenwings | honestly I don't know why anyone would use ubuntu over debian | 03:53 |
| ablest1980 | i want lts distros | 03:53 |
| ablest1980 | the beta distros are the ones with bugs | 03:54 |
| rgb-one | chickenwings: you use it no? | 03:54 |
| name | i am tryin to install but gparted doesnt know what file system it is | 03:54 |
| chickenwings | no, I'm here because I'm looking for a social chatroom | 03:54 |

| deper29 | rgb-one: heeh, guess what? | 03:57 |
| deper29 | my dconf-settings were already correct :( | 03:57 |
| deper29 | my issue lies elsewhere | 03:57 |

| ablest1980 | ty guys | 03:58 |
| ebonics | guys im pretty sure im doing linux | 03:58 |
| ablest1980 | XD | 03:58 |
| rgb-one | deper29: nautilus uses udisks2 to mount I think | 03:58 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | :/ | 03:59 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: okay? | 03:59 |
| deper29 | not sure what that implies I should do :P | 04:00 |
| TheBlindGhoulie3 | I guess I'll try asking again later :) | 04:00 |
| millerti | Does Ubuntu no longer support downloading iso's by bit torrent? | 04:01 |
| lotuspsychje | millerti: i think they still do why? | 04:01 |

| ebonics | where can i put that flag? | 04:04 |
| deper29 | rgb-one: USER root rwx; GROUP root r-x; other --- | 04:04 |
| millerti | Can I have Ubuntu check itself after I've upgraded? It just gave me some vague report of "errors". | 04:04 |
| lotuspsychje | millerti: what kind of errors | 04:05 |
| millerti | lotuspsychje: It didn't say. | 04:05 |
| millerti | Not very helpful, eh? | 04:05 |
| OerHeks | millerti, if you get an error, it did a check. | 04:05 |

| millerti | It takes me to a desktop, and I see a shared folders icon, but I get no mouse. | 04:08 |
| teromous | how do I add a program to docky? I tried to drag and drop but nothing happens | 04:08 |

| GeekMan1222 | ok so i need some help figuring something out im playing around with rsync for a file server to backup to a remote storage drive via ssh and the command works locally but if i try issuing it for testing off my laptop remotely using ssh i get a strange error | 04:58 |
| GeekMan1222 | can i not issue the command in a remote shell? | 04:59 |
| GeekMan1222 | rsync -avrz -e ssh /file/path1/ user@localaddress/file/path2/ | 05:00 |
| GeekMan1222 | i get some wierd pipe errors when i issue it on the server remotely | 05:01 |
| GeekMan1222 | http://pastebin.com/zGSGQNVi thats the error and im not getting alot of results off google | 05:02 |
| GeekMan1222 | at least relevent to my situation | 05:02 |
| rgb-one | GeekMan1222: it seems you may have ssh spelled incorrectly as shh | 05:03 |
| GeekMan1222 | oh my wtf | 05:04 |
| === curiousx is now known as Chuck_Norris | ||
| GeekMan1222 | i feel really stupid now XD | 05:05 |
| GeekMan1222 | ok next question rgb-one i want this script to automate on my server would i need to use a signature key that would seem like what i need to do | 05:06 |
| GeekMan1222 | cause i cant train a monkey to type the password in when it asks for it right ;P | 05:07 |
| * fk_007 begins installation of XUbuntu on ancient Dell XPS M140 | 05:07 | |
| GeekMan1222 | but other than that thanks sorry for the absurd over look of the actual ssh command spelling | 05:08 |
| rgb-one | GeekMan1222: it is what it is man these things happen | 05:08 |
| GeekMan1222 | so i prolly need to setup a signature key | 05:08 |
| OerHeks | We all had our breakdown over a typo | 05:09 |
| rgb-one | GeekMan1222: Don't know. I have minimal experience with ssh | 05:10 |
| rgb-one | GeekMan1222: by signature key do you mean passwordless login? | 05:12 |
| GeekMan1222 | yes like a key | 05:12 |
| GeekMan1222 | rsa key | 05:12 |
| GeekMan1222 | or w/e | 05:12 |
| GeekMan1222 | maybe theres a way to issue the password to inject into the command line but i dont think ssh would be that insecure | 05:13 |
| GeekMan1222 | and that would be awful practice honestly | 05:13 |
| OerHeks | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys | 05:13 |
| rgb-one | GeekMan1222: Maybe the monkey can be trained http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12202587/automatically-enter-ssh-password-with-script | 05:14 |

| fk_007 | create key on client machine (ssh-keygen -t dsa -b 1024) | 05:16 |
| mick_liu | hi guys, how can I make my own deb package, I compile the source from git repo, http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html this totorial use tar.gz file | 05:16 |
| GeekMan1222 | surprisingly the wd mycloud uses debian | 05:16 |
| mick_liu | and I am confused | 05:16 |
| fk_007 | add newly created key to authorized keys (cat ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys) | 05:17 |
| rgb-one | mick_liu: What is confusing? | 05:18 |
| fk_007 | sftp to remote and put authorized_keys in .ssh folder, bam no more password prompt | 05:18 |
| rgb-one | mick_liu: A .tar.gz file is just another archive format like a .zip file | 05:19 |
| OerHeks | mick_liu, see # 6.3 > bzr builddeb is a command to build the package in its current location. | 05:19 |
| mick_liu | rgb-one: I installed it correctly, under ~/wine64 directory, but there is not .tar.gz file on ~ | 05:20 |
| mick_liu | OerHeks: can I just run bzr builddeb on the direcotry which contains the binary executable file | 05:21 |
| rgb-one | mick_liu: look in the wine64 directory | 05:21 |
| GeekMan1222 | so fk_007 follow this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys | 05:21 |
| mick_liu | rgb-one: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10797776/ | 05:22 |
| fk_007 | GeekMan1222: looks like it | 05:23 |
| fk_007 | you get the key on the server that was generated on clients machine and no password should be needed | 05:23 |
| rgb-one | mick_liu: what application are you trying to package? | 05:24 |
| mick_liu | rgb-one: wine | 05:24 |
| mick_liu | rgb-one: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10797793/ | 05:25 |
| rgb-one | mick_liu: What is your objective in packaging wine? | 05:25 |
| mick_liu | rgb-one: I not sure what do you mean, but I just want to let the package knows my local built version of Wine, because I also want to install wine-mono, wine-gecko, and don't want to install a conflicting version of wine | 05:28 |
| GeekMan1222 | fk_007: so when i run the ssh-keygen command it says i should be on the client that would be the server im backing up from correct | 05:28 |
| GeekMan1222 | or no would it be generating a key to login to the device im backing up into | 05:28 |

| bekks | GeekMan1222: The ony thta suit your needs. | 07:01 |
| bekks | *one | 07:01 |
| GeekMan1222 | maybe optimum is to strong of a word | 07:01 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: You need to know what you want to do exactly then you will find the appropriate command line options very easily. | 07:02 |

| GeekMan1222 | this server is cli only | 07:03 |
| deper29 | GeekMan1222: I would just 'rsync -av /source /target' | 07:03 |
| ANJ7 | OerHeks: I installed compizconfig-settings-manager | 07:03 |
| bekks | deper29: That would not preserve possible ACL. | 07:04 |
| GeekMan1222 | ah cause atm im using avrz | 07:04 |
| deper29 | bekks: oh, right. I had that issue earlier :D how do you preserve ACL with rsync? | 07:04 |
| ANJ7 | OerHeks: how can I disable Animation now | 07:04 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: -av (-r is included in -a) (-z only with very fast machines) and --progress, and --delete (which deletes non-existing files in the source on the target also) | 07:05 |
| GeekMan1222 | like what i want is that oh the data got totally rekt so i need to just move the backup right over and im done | 07:05 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: And then you need to take a look which other options you'd need, like preserving ACL, and such. | 07:05 |
| calcmandan | anyone know owncloud? | 07:05 |
| GeekMan1222 | so -av --progress --delete | 07:05 |
| bekks | calcmandan: Some people do know. | 07:05 |
| calcmandan | i am testing owncloud for potential deployment on my home network. currently, i have it on a bridged VM. Got it port forwarded on my router. Attempting to contact it with my 4G phone, but can't seem to get the address right. I'm attempting to use the tomboy app with my phone. any tips? currently I need to plug the port into the url so my router knows how to direct the traffic. | 07:06 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: Thats the minimum, not preserving any ACL. | 07:06 |
| GeekMan1222 | i do have another project that backs up a completely remote location to that virtual drive and the user is chrooted and that was a bit of a pain so i need permissions and such to stay completely in tact bekks | 07:06 |
| bekks | calcmandan: If you cant even connect to it, you dont have an owncloud but networking issue. | 07:06 |
| deper29 | GeekMan1222: so then if you want to preserve ACL use --acls | 07:06 |
| OerHeks | ANJ7, the guide says: goto unity plugin ( part of 'desktop') etc etc | 07:06 |
| GeekMan1222 | acl i presume means access control layers | 07:07 |
| GeekMan1222 | lol | 07:07 |

| deper29 | I wish I knew about the ACL flag when I rsync'd my disk. | 07:08 |
| deper29 | would have saved me a ton of headache. | 07:08 |
| GeekMan1222 | so if i use that command ill be home free i been testing with copys of smaller bits of the main drive | 07:08 |
| deper29 | GeekMan1222: yeah, but add the --acls option if you need it. | 07:09 |
| calcmandan | bekks: i have the VM port forwarded on a port. | 07:09 |
| GeekMan1222 | how do i know if i need it | 07:09 |
| OerHeks | ANJ7, and the part below desktop, "effects" looks like it can minimise effects and so on, explore yourself ? | 07:09 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: Do you use ACL? | 07:10 |
| GeekMan1222 | not that i know of | 07:10 |
| GeekMan1222 | unless you mean permissions and pam | 07:10 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: pam is irrelevant, since it has nothing to do with file system permissions. | 07:11 |
| deper29 | bekks: how do you know if you use ACL? I rsync'd my whole ubuntu drive to another drive and had no idea I used ACL prior to doing that. Turns out my /media/$USER directory had issues later. | 07:11 |
| GeekMan1222 | yes i have file system permissions i suppose | 07:11 |
| GeekMan1222 | like ownership and such | 07:11 |
| GeekMan1222 | it was a requirement to have pam work for the chrooted user | 07:12 |
| GeekMan1222 | i would like to have that carry over | 07:12 |
| bekks | deper29: I do know it, since I have to mount my filesystems with "acls" to support them. | 07:12 |
| GeekMan1222 | read write permissions that is | 07:12 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: pam has nothing to do with filesystem permissions. PAM is for authentication. | 07:13 |
| GeekMan1222 | yes | 07:13 |
| bekks | So it is irrelevant at this point. | 07:13 |
| calcmandan | bekks: am i in the wrong channel? this is on ubuntu server. | 07:13 |
| deper29 | bekks: err, let me rephrase that: How would someone know if they used ACL? Again, my system apparently used it and I didn't know. | 07:13 |
| GeekMan1222 | but i had to example set an entire directory path with certain permissions unless thats part of pam which would mean i learned even more tonight | 07:13 |
| bekks | calcmandan: And its still an Ubuntu. ACL arent used on servers only, rsync isnt used on servers only. | 07:13 |
| bekks | deper29: You need to mount your filesystems with the acls option to be able to use ACL. | 07:14 |
| deper29 | GeekMan1222: -av will preserve permissions | 07:14 |
| calcmandan | bekks: roger that. so perhaps i am asking the wrong question. | 07:14 |
| GeekMan1222 | ok i thought as much | 07:14 |
| GeekMan1222 | so acl's is something much more involved that i havent likely messed with | 07:14 |
| calcmandan | bekks: i want to access owncloud from my devices on mobile networks or elsewhere altogether. at the moment, the VM is bridged and assigned an internal IP address. I've port forwarded that address TCP/UDP to a particular port. I should be able to hit the apache main page if i type my public address with the port, but i can't even get that. so i'm missing a link here. at this point, i should be able to type IP_ADDR:PORT/ and get the apache page. | 07:17 |
| calcmandan | correct? | 07:17 |
| GeekMan1222 | well if i dont need the --acl attribute to my knowlege i prolly wont need to use it | 07:18 |
| === AlphaTech is now known as zz_AlphaTech | ||
| bekks | calcmandan: you yould not be able to do that from within your internal network. | 07:19 |
| calcmandan | i'm trying this from my 4G phone. so it's not addressed to my internal network. | 07:20 |
| bekks | calcmandan: Such as being connected using WIFI. You need to access your IP from outside. | 07:20 |
| bekks | calcmandan: Does the portforwarding work? | 07:20 |
| calcmandan | bekks: yes. i can SSH to my desktop. | 07:20 |
| calcmandan | bekks: from my phone. | 07:20 |
| bekks | calcmandan: SSH is irrelevant for accessing owncloud via http/https | 07:20 |
| bekks | Does owncloud work, when accessed from your internal lan? | 07:21 |
| gtan | Doing a fresh ubuntu reinstall... which device should I install Grub on? /dev/sda - windows or /dev/sdb8 - ubuntu OS partition | 07:21 |
| calcmandan | bekks: yes. but, i have everything port forwarded and i'm able to SSH to my desktop. so port forwarding is working at least. | 07:21 |
| OerHeks | calcmandan, http://your-external-ip/owncloud:port | 07:21 |
| bekks | calcmandan: Portforwarding for SSH is working. Which is irrelevant for portforwarding for http/https | 07:21 |
| calcmandan | OerHeks: thanks, i'll try | 07:21 |
| calcmandan | bekks: i see. | 07:22 |
| bekks | OerHeks: That will not work. | 07:22 |
| bekks | calcmandan: http://externalip:port/owncloud/ | 07:22 |
| calcmandan | bekks: my brother has a box on my network. he connects via http/https all the time. | 07:22 |
| bekks | calcmandan: And you are trying to use the same port as him? | 07:22 |
| OerHeks | bekks, correct, my bad | 07:22 |
| calcmandan | bekks: well, no the router wouldn't allow duplicate port assignments even if i tried | 07:23 |
| OerHeks | just read the /owncloud part is important, not just ip | 07:23 |
| calcmandan | OerHeks: it's trying | 07:24 |
| GeekMan1222 | bekks i mean the machine runs on a pentium D 3.0ghz and it has average low system load you dont think i should use the -z option in rsync | 07:25 |
| calcmandan | i'm going to reboot my router. | 07:25 |
| calcmandan | lol | 07:25 |
| GeekMan1222 | total current size of usage on the directory is about 1.4tb | 07:25 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: Decompression happens on the target, not the source. | 07:26 |
| GeekMan1222 | oh | 07:26 |
| GeekMan1222 | the other is an arm7 lol | 07:26 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: hahahaha :D | 07:26 |
| GeekMan1222 | wd my cloud gets no use | 07:26 |
| bekks | GeekMan1222: Ok, that will take ages anyways. | 07:26 |
| GeekMan1222 | oh what about the -u option is that included in -av i cant remeber if you said i didnt need it or if i even said anything about it | 07:27 |

| emma | I have this vps with Ubuntu running on it and it starts out with a root user. I used the root user to make a newuser I can sudo with. Is there a way to deactivate the root user (i mean make it so there is no password that can be logged in as root) now that I have done that? | 08:11 |

| Floppy_Ho | sod this | 08:14 |
| gry | (resent from earlier) wpa-supplicant is running for my wifi; where is its config file? i would like to understand what exactly network-manager does to get wifi working | 08:14 |
| deweydb | it seems like i'm missing something obvious | 08:14 |
| m14ed | ikonia o/ | 08:14 |
| emma | I guess I better see that I can log in as my sudo user before I passwd -l root | 08:14 |
| ikonia | emma: %100 make sure you other accounts are ok and that you have sudo access | 08:15 |
| Floppy_Ho | ikona DONT PM!!! | 08:15 |
| OerHeks | deweydb, are you trying to run docker as root?? | 08:15 |
| deweydb | OerHeks: when i run it as non-root i get: The program 'docker' is currently not installed. To run 'docker' please ask your administrator to install the package 'docker' | 08:17 |
| emma | ikonia: yeah good idea. | 08:17 |
| emma | You can't apt-get update without sudo right? | 08:17 |
| ikonia | emma: correct | 08:17 |
| emma | I was just able to do that so I think my sudo user is working. | 08:17 |
| emma | ikonia: what do you think - on a VPS like this should I get rid of root password or maybe just make root password ridiculously long or something? | 08:18 |
| gry | disable root login | 08:18 |
| b3n_123 | anyone using email notification? what do you recommend? sorry for asking again .. :D | 08:19 |
| emma | ive mostly just used ubuntu as a desktop user where root never has a password | 08:19 |
| ikonia | emma: what's your concern ? | 08:19 |
| emma | ikonia: i guess my concern is being hacked | 08:19 |
| emma | gry: yeah that's what I was thinking | 08:19 |
| ikonia | emma: is the vps %100 ubuntu or one of the hacked virutalised things ? | 08:19 |
| emma | I don't know. I think its 100 percent Ubuntu. | 08:19 |
| ikonia | emma: lets have a quick guess, show me the output of uname -a | 08:20 |
| ikonia | (please) | 08:20 |
| emma | ikonia: are you a hacker? | 08:20 |
| gry | yes | 08:20 |
| ikonia | errr you know I'm just trying to help you | 08:20 |
| gry | a full channel of people who know how to program | 08:20 |
| emma | ikonia: come on ikonia you know im joking :) | 08:20 |
| ikonia | sure | 08:20 |
| gry | (none of them are crackers, but that's not your question) | 08:20 |
| emma | ikonia: don't you know that IRC is where Hackers go when they don't want to be overheard? | 08:21 |
| deweydb | hmmm still same problem, trying as non-root: http://pastie.org/10086069 | 08:21 |
| ikonia | emma: want to show me the output of uname -a please | 08:21 |
| karlhewer | I have a question regarding server | 08:23 |
| ikonia | emma: so based on what you've just shown me in private (thank you) I would suggest not fully disabling the root account | 08:25 |
| emma | ikonia: Sure. What is it about the hacked builds that make it a bad idea? | 08:25 |
| ikonia | emma: what I would suggest is make sure it's disabled vi ssh, and then set a crazy hardware password for it | 08:26 |
| ikonia | emma: that way you can "su" if you want | 08:26 |
| m14ed | ( o Y o ) bigg\un's | 08:26 |
| ikonia | emma: some virutal providers modify core components to allow it to run as they want on their virtual platform better | 08:26 |
| ikonia | emma: hence why you see a specific kernel - which will be tweaked for their hardware platform | 08:26 |
| emma | How about setting up ssh to work with a private key for root? | 08:27 |
| emma | does that get rid of the risk ? | 08:28 |
| ikonia | emma: it reduces it | 08:28 |
| ikonia | emma: however blocking it from direct ssh login would be much better | 08:29 |
| ikonia | so a.) change your ssh auth to keys only b.) disabled root login via sh c.) set a solid password for root | 08:29 |
| ikonia | emma: that will get you to a pretty solid basis, without impacting any of the modifications your provider may/may not have done | 08:30 |
| ikonia | sorry b.) was "disable root login via ssh" | 08:30 |
| ikonia | not sh | 08:30 |
| gry | emma: see https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/ch-sec-services.en.html#s5.1 | 08:32 |
| emma | thanks guys :) | 08:35 |
| enchilado | np | 08:36 |
| emma | Hey - Im trying to build something from source using git. The instructions don't say to use sudo for the git stuff. But I guess when I use git from inside my home directory the new directory showed up in there. | 08:36 |
| emma | When I run ./build.sh will this result in the software installed so that other users I create will be able to use it also? | 08:36 |
| ikonia | emma: really depends on that specific script | 08:37 |
| ikonia | whats the software ? | 08:37 |
| emma | phantom.js | 08:37 |
| emma | http://phantomjs.org/build.html | 08:37 |
| emma | those are the instructions I'm following. | 08:37 |
| ikonia | emma: I suspect that wil dump it in /usr/local/ and everyone can access it | 08:38 |
| emma | I hope so. | 08:38 |
| ikonia | from what I read thats what should happen if it builds sucessfully | 08:38 |
| Zarthus | seems like the binary wouldn't be too hard to move around even if it only installed locally either | 08:38 |
| emma | but nothing was done with sudo so how will it be able to write files into directories outside my home folder? | 08:38 |
| gry | (and i think in ./bin with offer for you to move it where appropriate, but i am not sure) | 08:38 |
| ikonia | yeah, maybe it's not doing the install | 08:39 |
| ikonia | just the build then you can move it where you want | 08:39 |
| ikonia | it's certainly linked against /usr/local | 08:39 |
| emma | So once you have the binary the binary knows where to find dependences on the system on its own? | 08:39 |
| ikonia | emma: that script will probably call the linker | 08:40 |
| emma | like not relative to itself but in some absolute sense? | 08:40 |
| ikonia | emma: which means it will be aware of whats on the system and where | 08:40 |
| emma | so that the binary can be moved around? | 08:40 |
| ikonia | emma: yes | 08:40 |
| emma | ok | 08:40 |

| Voyage_ | Peace-, krita_1%3a2.8.6-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb <-- this is after purge. so whats the point of purge then remove? | 08:52 |
| bekks | Voyage_: purge includes remove. | 08:52 |

| Peace- | Voyage_: try to disable opengl | 09:12 |
| htqp | pikaciu: some programs need access to runtime data about hardware or software. The standard interface is via those directories. Ubuntu mounts them on /dev etc. by default, when you work in chroot you need to mount them manually | 09:12 |
| Voyage_ | Peace-, i am in settings now. whats next | 09:12 |

| OerHeks | Voyage_, wait untill the 27th, vivid has got krita 2.9.2 | 09:35 |
| OerHeks | http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/krita | 09:35 |
| Voyage_ | OerHeks, sudo add-apt-repository ppa:dimula73/krita ? | 09:37 |
| OerHeks | PPA's are not supported, use at your own risc | 09:37 |
| Voyage_ | OerHeks, how do I remove this ppa? | 09:38 |
| what_ever_fi | I run apt get purge gpgv and now I lost everything, I can't even run apt get command | 09:38 |
| OerHeks | !ppapurge | 09:41 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 09:41 |
| what_ever_fi | @ubottu that was for me ? | 09:41 |
| OerHeks | what_ever_fi, no | 09:42 |
| what_ever_fi | ok | 09:42 |
| OerHeks | what_ever_fi, i think you deleted a systempackage, "gpgv is a stripped-down version of gnupg which is only able to check signatures." | 09:44 |
| what_ever_fi | Thank you, I am newbie trying now to re-install things, but I get always errors | 09:45 |
| what_ever_fi | apt - get not there | 09:46 |
| htqp | you don't even have apt now, since apt has dependency on gpgv | 09:46 |
| what_ever_fi | that is right :D | 09:47 |
| htqp | but maybe you have apt-get so, apt-get install gpgv ? | 09:47 |
| ikonia | you can't apt-get something if apt-get is broken | 09:47 |
| ikonia | you'll need to grab the deb file and dpkg it | 09:47 |
| what_ever_fi_ | and I got disconnected | 09:49 |
| what_ever_fi_ | @htqp how to install anything back (apt at least) | 09:49 |
| ShalokShalom | hi there, how to get a log about my boot speed ? | 09:54 |
| OerHeks | !bootchart | 09:56 |
| ubottu | bootchart charts your machine at boot time, to install >> sudo apt-get install bootchart << the graphic is in /var/log/bootchart after the next reboot | 09:56 |
| ShalokShalom | thanks :D | 09:56 |
| OerHeks | de-install after use, else your /var/log/ will grow | 09:56 |
| ShalokShalom | ok | 09:57 |
| ShalokShalom | 0erHeks: is there a similar command in upstart available as well ? | 09:58 |
| ShalokShalom | like systemd-analyze blame ? | 09:58 |
| OerHeks | ShalokShalom, not that i know of | 09:59 |
| ShalokShalom | ok, thanks | 10:00 |
| ShalokShalom | this bootchart shows, why my system needs so long to boot, yes ? | 10:00 |
| OerHeks | it shows micro time for every part to load. big gaps can give you a clue about delays | 10:01 |
| OerHeks | some delays are normal, like auth wireless, that can take some time. | 10:02 |
| OerHeks | else dmesg can give you some info too> dmesg | more | 10:03 |
| what_ever_fi_ | how to manually install gpgv ? | 10:14 |
| OerHeks | what_ever_fi_, download the deb package for your ubuntu version, and install it with ' sudo dpkg -i <package>.deb ' | 10:15 |
| OerHeks | hope that works, else backup your data and reinstall. | 10:15 |
| what_ever_fi_ | Thx OerHeks the problem I was not able to find the right package, | 10:16 |

| Guest96257 | hello! i'm hesitating between gnome 3 or plasma 5, actually, could you help me decide between kubuntu and ubuntu gome? | 10:17 |
| OerHeks | Guest96257, not really, try them out both? plasma5 is in beta iirc | 10:21 |
| sburjan | Hello. Is there an article on how to disable non-essential daemons/services in Ubuntu/Xubuntu ? I am installing on a very old lapto, and I am sure there are a lot of services I don\t need and that can boost performance if I disable them. I googled it, I saw some toold to do this, but is there a tutorial that explains all the daemons and what they do so I can chose which to disable ? | 10:22 |
| Guest96257 | OerHeks: i tried them both, comming from mac, gnome is perfect except for its huge windows :S i and i like some things in kde like being able to set the touchpad (i'm on a macbook pro and i intend to use ubuntu as mu onlu OS) | 10:22 |
| Guest96257 | kde looks goregeous but its task bar and workflow is SO windows that i feel lost, but its apps (krita, digikam, kdenlive are amazing) | 10:23 |
| Guest96257 | so what i want is gnome workflow with kde apps lol | 10:23 |
| Celexi | you can use those apps in gnome | 10:23 |
| OerHeks | Celexi +1 | 10:24 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: I would definitely recommed GNOME or anything based on it. | 10:24 |
| Guest96257 | but isn't there any problem doing it? | 10:24 |
| Guest96257 | i mean, mixing apps | 10:24 |
| Celexi | not really | 10:24 |
| OerHeks | you pull in a lot of dependencies, but it works. | 10:24 |
| Guest96257 | Inoki: why to use gnome instead of kde? | 10:24 |
| Guest96257 | OerHeks: and are they easy to unistall if i don't want the app related to any more? | 10:25 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: KDE is nice, but personally I find it bloated. GNOME is a lot simpler. | 10:25 |
| claude_ | quit | 10:26 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: If you want something to help you get things done quickly and efficiently in a mobile like interface = very modern UI, that is designed to get things out of the way and get them done. | 10:26 |
| Guest96257 | exactly in gnome i feel more productive | 10:27 |
| Guest96257 | kde is playful for me | 10:28 |
| Guest96257 | so is it anyway in gnome i can get my touchpad faster and more sensible? | 10:28 |
| Guest96257 | ah! another big question, when a new release is launched, is it recommended to fresh install or is it ok just upgrading? | 10:29 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: You can customize anything necessary for productivity with GNOME, just as you can with about any DE. KDE is more for those who like to tweak their desktop to the max. Of course you can do that in any DE, but KDE offers a GUI for about every setting. | 10:31 |
| Inoki | About upgrades, depends how you customize your system. If you use less 3rd party apps and more of those from the official repos I don't think you need to do a fresh install every once in a while. | 10:31 |
| Guest96257 | im installing krita in ubuntu gnome right now and the amount of dependencies is WOA! | 10:32 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: Don't worry about that. | 10:32 |
| Guest96257 | i will folow your advice, i really like gnomes workflow ^^ | 10:33 |
| Guest96257 | i still don0t get the use of Unity | 10:33 |
| Guest96257 | but between gnome and kde, i'm really surprise people do this piece of perfection for free! :S | 10:34 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: If you install something originally meant for another DE of course it needs dependencies, but that doesn't mean that it would run any worse on another DE. I typically install software that requires more dependencies but never had issues of any kind. | 10:34 |
| Inoki | People know what people need, that's the beauty of it. Enjoy your system! | 10:34 |
| Guest96257 | Inoki: so mixing kde apps in an gnome environment is not a bad thing? | 10:35 |
| Guest96257 | the performance of those apps isn't going to be poor? | 10:36 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: I don't see how it's a problem. If the majority of apps you use are meant for another DE it would perhaps be recommended to use that one instead. But if you use only a few from KDE and the rest from GNOME use GNOME. | 10:37 |
| javnut | can I add comments to my bash history with #? | 10:37 |
| Guest96257 | yeah right | 10:38 |
| Guest96257 | i will figure out how to change kde apps icons in gnome :S | 10:38 |
| Guest96257 | to make it more integrated | 10:38 |
| bekks | javnut: No. | 10:40 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: GNOME has some of the most interesting apps designed for it. I tried KDE apps in the past but didn't like them at all. They felt bloated. I tried Krita and although it's a good app to me it seems too overfeatured, that's why I use MyPaint, which is super simple and feels better. Again, personal preference. I like minimal settings and maximum result, that's how I pick my apps. E.g. I never used Rhythmbox and that's a GNOM | 10:41 |
| javnut | bekks: won't "foo #comment here" run anyway though? | 10:41 |
| bekks | javnut: Comments arent recorded in the history. | 10:42 |
| Guest96257 | Inoki: do you know how to make default adwaita title bar smaller? | 10:42 |
| javnut | bekks: I just checked, yes they are | 10:43 |
| bekks | javnut: Are they? TIL, all other bash implementations on other OS dont record them. | 10:44 |
| javnut | cd Desktop #this makes the Desktop the current working directory | 10:44 |
| javnut | try it | 10:44 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: Not really, you might want to join #ubuntu-gnome and maybe someone there can help. Some theme related settings for GNOME are (I think) configured in their theme files. As I said before, GNOME offers customization, but theme specific stuff has to be done (I think) in the config files of a theme, unless you have a GUI for it like in KDE. I never bothered with this kind of stuff. I like themes as they are shipped. | 10:44 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: Should no one in #ubuntu-gnome be able to help you could always turn to GNOME-specific channels independent of distros. | 10:46 |
| Inoki | Guest96257: Plus there is the awesome Ask Ubuntu page and Ubuntu Forums. | 10:47 |
| Guest96257 | oki thanks! | 10:47 |

| curccc | Hello, when I am running an Ubuntu script and make changes to that script while it is running, does it reread the changes I make? | 11:05 |
| curccc | And by that I mean a shell script. | 11:06 |
| curccc | (bash) | 11:06 |
| andcat | hey, I've got a question -- I have an ubuntu VM set up how I want it, and it's 8.04 [intentionally], so I can't upload it to ec2. I can use a default 8.04 ec2 image, but I'd want the state to be the same as my current one | 11:09 |
| rochelimit | @curccc, when you run a script it is loaded into memory, but editing is done on the version on disk. | 11:09 |
| andcat | long story short, is there some way of seeing all the new packages and/or files from a base install, so I can quickly do them all again? | 11:09 |
| curccc | rochelimit: are you sure? | 11:09 |
| curccc | "bash reads from the last byte position, so editing shifts the location of the current character being read." | 11:09 |
| rochelimit | So it won't re read the script unless you stop and restart it. | 11:09 |
| curccc | "bash is, indeed, interpreting the script "as you go"." | 11:10 |
| curccc | from: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3398258/edit-shell-script-while-its-running | 11:10 |
| curccc | If that's the case, then it should be OK to edit bits of the script further down the script shouldn't it? | 11:12 |
| rochelimit | Curccc: interesting link. It seems to have caused disagreement. Have you experimented with a text script? | 11:12 |
| curccc | rochelimit: I will test it. | 11:13 |
| bodo_ | Err http://ro.archive.ubuntu.com utopic-updates Release.gpg | 11:14 |
| bodo_ | Could not resolve 'ro.archive.ubuntu.com' | 11:14 |
| bodo_ | Err http://ro.archive.ubuntu.com utopic-backports Release.gpg | 11:14 |
| bodo_ | Could not resolve 'ro.archive.ubuntu.com' | 11:14 |
| bodo_ | why do i get this err trying to sudo apt-get update? | 11:15 |
| curccc | Yeah, looks like it reads it bit by bit. | 11:15 |
| bodo_ | and there are more lines like this | 11:15 |
| curccc | Ok, so editing things downstream in the script looks fine, but upstream from the current bit seems to make problems. | 11:16 |
| curccc | That answers my question. Thanks. | 11:17 |
| rochelimit | Cheers | 11:17 |
| rochelimit | It may also be different depending how you edit the file. Looks to unpredictable to rely on. | 11:18 |
| bodo_ | why when i do sudo apt-get update i get some err and ign? | 11:22 |
| ohai__ | hello | 11:23 |
| ohai__ | is anyone here? | 11:23 |
| bodo_ | nvm i see that i can't get help on #ubuntu anymore | 11:24 |
| MonkeyDust | bodo_ maybe because the source or mirror is not available | 11:24 |
| ohai__ | try other repository i guess | 11:24 |
| bodo_ | MonkeyDust, and is there anything i can do? | 11:24 |
| MonkeyDust | bodo_ it's harmless | 11:27 |
| rochelimit | Bodu, do you need the backports? You could comment or the line in your apt-sources file. | 11:27 |
| rochelimit | That's "comment out" | 11:27 |
| monojin | Is there any place I can find up to date information on using gamepads with Ubuntu (like necessary packages, configuration, which brands are more likely to work)? | 11:32 |

| Thenewone | i have ubuntu server how can i active icons ? | 11:47 |
| Thenewone | i have openbox as desktop | 11:47 |
| rochelimit | Thenewone, openbox is a window manager, so you'll need to install something to manage the desktop. I'm run openbox and I prefer an icon-less background. | 11:51 |
| Thenewone | rochelimit, you know how to active the icons ? | 11:52 |
| rochelimit | Some file managers can do it. Try Nautilus or PCmanFM. | 11:53 |
| Thenewone | ok what about thunar ? | 11:53 |

| kokut | xrandr | 12:50 |
| EriC^^ | kokut: try xbacklight | 12:55 |
| kokut | EriC^^: i use that for my notebook's screen | 12:56 |
| EriC^^ | oh ok | 12:56 |
| tos-1 | kokut: Afair xrandr --brightness does not increase the brightness of the backlight of your monitor. It does some fancy gamma manipluations. | 12:58 |
| kokut | anyone knows if theres something like yakuake but for gnome? | 13:04 |

| rgb-one | reeed: you can google both if them and compare your results | 14:06 |

| OerHeks | not sure is .a is static | 14:07 |
| OerHeks | is-if * | 14:08 |
| Istalantar | OerHeks: thats exactly the point, so, without chrome, no print server | 14:09 |
| OerHeks | Istalantar, why can't you use chrome ? | 14:11 |
| SchrodingersScat | that sounds logical though, if a 'google print server' requires chrome and you can't use chrome then you probably can't google print server? | 14:13 |

| sutterp | rgb-one: The original repo was deb http://packages.mate-desktop.org/repo/ubuntu precise main where it worked fine, but this appears not to be available anymore. | 14:29 |
| rgb-one | sutterp: maybe you should upgrade to the latest LTS | 14:30 |
| sutterp | rgb-one Have changed them to sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-mate-dev/ppa sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-mate-dev/precise-mate, thats when the problem started | 14:31 |
| sutterp | rgb-one Can't do that at the moment, still have to support other 12.04 LTS installations | 14:32 |
| === amir_ is now known as Guest96507 | ||
| kam270 | is there any decent LVM gui tools out there ? | 14:32 |
| rgb-one | the problem is you may have the old mate desktop installed and you are trying to install mate desktop which is being retrieved from the ppa which requires the version of mate-desktop in the ppa | 14:32 |
| OerHeks | SJr, see this list, http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/pd031426, certifies has nothing to do with ubuntu preinstalled | 14:33 |

| rgb-one | sutterp: run sudo apt-get autoremove | 14:34 |

| sutterp | rgb-one Yes, I always do apt-get update and apt-get upgrade after changing anything in the repos | 14:38 |
| rgb-one | sutterp: yea. I am thinking that the mate you have installed was not being retrieved from the ppa? | 14:39 |
| rgb-one | sutterp: What you could do is purge mate-desktop and install mate-cotrol-center. It will retrieve the version of mate it requires | 14:40 |
| sutterp | rgb-one How do I check that, except that when running apt-get update, it seems to retrieve the data from there | 14:40 |

| bigred15 | hrmm, any idea why it exists? :| | 14:44 |
| rgb-one | bigred15: I think it is used by gnome applications such as nautilus | 14:44 |

I am installing on a very old lapto, and I am sure there are a lot of services I don\t need and that can boost performance if I disable them. I googled it, I saw some toold to do this, but is there a tutorial that explains all the daemons and what they do so I can chose which to disable ? | 16:33 |
| reeed | sburjan: i chose to use Lubuntu -- lightweight, minimal services | 16:34 |
| rgb-one | sburjan: check the system monitor | 16:35 |

| bprompt | keithclark: ok...then do a -> sudo dd if=PATH/TO/YOUR/ISOFILE.iso of=/dev/sdc <--- depending on how big the iso is, and the usb port is, if it's say, a 1gb iso, and usb 2.0 port on an usb 2.0 stick, then it'd take around 10mins | 19:08 |

| hecatae | hi currently directly upgrading from quantal to trusty, anyone done this before and what is likely to break? | 19:42 |
| brunch875 | Hello! | 19:43 |
| geekstay | Hi everyone. I have several computers with different tools installed on it. I would like to synchronize them and have something like Microsoft Azure, "in the cloud". For example, if I install android Studio with several version sdk on PC1, I would like to be able to use a "simple" command to synchronize it on PC2 withouth passing by SDK manager. I'm not sure to be clear. Does someone know an OPEN-SOURCE tools to do that ? | 19:43 |
| rainbowwarrior | Hi does anyone here know how to fix the not able to make image or burn dvd with Dvdstyler 2.7.2 please ? | 19:43 |
| geekstay | For the moment, I use git, but I think it's not the best method. | 19:43 |
| Finetundra | rainbowwarrior: why not use brasero or k3b? | 19:44 |
| Bashing-om | !eol | hecatae lots can break, can . | 19:46 |
| ubottu | hecatae lots can break, can .: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 19:46 |
| hecatae | Bashing-om: I take it you have not upgrade this far between versions then? | 19:48 |
| stanmcm | geekstay, How well has git been working for you? | 19:49 |
| stanmcm | geekstay, I don't have a solution. I want to do the same thing on my machines though. | 19:49 |
| Bashing-om | hecatae: Yes, I have 12.10 -> 13.04 -> 13.10 ->14.04 ... a long way lots of band width and time ... lots can break in all thee changes . | 19:49 |
| hecatae | Bashing-om: I'm missing out raring and saucy, going straight to trusty | 19:50 |
| bernhard | Hello is there anybody, who can help me with problems with cups and lexmarkprinters? | 19:51 |
| Bashing-om | hecatae: Nope, not advised ! .. the path - due to changes - is one release to the other .. The better thing is a clean fresh install of a current release . | 19:51 |
| geekstay | It's working very well, sometimes slow when I've got big files, but I don't find it "elegant" (Do you see what I mean ?). I've got a personal server here I push on, and I us "myrepo" to synchronise all repositories at startup. | 19:51 |
| geekstay | stanmcm: I would like to build something like Azure from Microsoft, but of course open-source. | 19:52 |
| geekstay | stanmcm: And we'll be able to install it on a personal server of course. | 19:53 |
| stanmcm | geekstay, I agree git doesn't sound elegant. Have you looked into using rsync? | 19:53 |
| stanmcm | geekstay, I haven't used Azure. | 19:54 |
| geekstay | stanmcm: No I haven't. | 19:55 |
| brunch875 | rsync is pretty cool. I can't believe I haven't heard about it before | 19:56 |
| bernhard | Hello can anyone tell me, where to ask printer questions concering cups and ubutun? | 19:56 |
| bernhard | ubuntu | 19:56 |
| Bashing-om | bernhard: As it is ubuntu, you can always ask here . | 19:57 |
| bernhard | Ok, thank bashing-om! | 19:58 |
| hecatae | Bashing-om: if it does not work, I'll go back to quantal, reasons, current kodibuntu iso wont work on my hardware, but is based on trusty, trusty works on my hardware, previous release to kodibuntu was xbmcbuntu but on a quantal base, so I have installed the older to get to the newer, either brave or stupid | 19:58 |
| stanmcm | geekstay, I'm sure rsync can do the job. It'll cut out all the backups git makes too. You'll save space that way. A little scripting and a cronjob and you're good to go. I think it would be more elegant this way. | 19:58 |
| Bashing-om | bernhard: Not that I know much about cups, but ask the channel ... some will know . | 19:59 |
| geekstay | stanmcm: Yeah, I agree with you. But I think it needs something more. I gonna try rsync. | 19:59 |
| geekstay | stanmcm: Thanks for the idea. | 20:00 |
| stanmcm | geekstay, Looking at Azure. This seems like it's made for the cloud. You are wanting the same results without having to install cloud computers, right? | 20:00 |
| Bashing-om | hecatae: We do what we have to do .. quantal is End_of_Life and has no support .. get up on a current release . | 20:00 |
| bernhard | My question is: I installed a lexmark x1100 multifunctional device by using cups. The moment i print, CUPS sends print to the printer, but the printer does not do anything. After that the print-job disappears. | 20:00 |
| stanmcm | geekstay, You're welcome. I'm going to keep thinking about it. I've been learning php and mysql. Might be able to get something started if we can't find it else where. I'm at a noob level though. Don't hold your breath. lol | 20:01 |
| geekstay | stanmcm: No, I would like to have a "cloud server", and each client synchronize his tools such as virtual machine, android-studio and associated plugin/sdk, same shortcuts, etc. | 20:01 |
| geekstay | stanmcm: Something I prefer git to rsync it's back up possibilities, without make a complete backup. And it's for that, now, I use git instead of rsync. | 20:04 |
| rainbowwarrior | Finetundra , does not matter what dvd burning program I chose there is problems with them all :( | 20:05 |
| gunnar | Hi all, this might be a silly question.. but I started a process via cron, can I somehow view the output of the running process? | 20:05 |
| Bashing-om | bernhard: Lexmark .. not great ! but, have you seen : http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/maverick/man5/sane-lexmark.5.html ? | 20:05 |
| Finetundra | rainbowwarrior: what are you trying to burn? and have you tried lower speeds? | 20:06 |
| brunch875 | Out of curiosity... which IRC client do you guys use on ubuntu? Right now I'm using empathy, but it is really simple compared to the mIRC I used to use back when I used windows. | 20:06 |
| brunch875 | I'm considering weechat since it can run on a tty, but integration with telepathy and libnotify are big wins for empathy :| | 20:06 |
| stanmcm | geekstay, I understand that. You could use both. Keep git on the server for backups. Use rsycn to push current files to the clients. Save some space on the clients and bandwidth on the server. | 20:06 |
| Bashing-om | bernhard: correct my last link to : http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man5/sane-lexmark.5.html . | 20:08 |
| stanmcm | geekstay, Did you look into Ubuntu Cloud? It might offer what you are looking for. | 20:08 |

| bernhard | bashing-om: it returns many things i am not familar with ;) | 20:17 |
| kro2488 | Okay, I have a slight annoyance, I was wondering if there was a fix. When my computer screen locks due to inactivity, i can't type in the password anymore and to use the computer I have to hold the power button shut it down and reboot it. However, if i tell it to lock manually it never happens. Anyone know a fix for that slight annoyance? | 20:18 |
| bernhard | Bashing-om: but it returns no errors :) | 20:18 |
| keithclark | ok, dd command seemed to have completed correctly, but the image did not boot.\ | 20:19 |
| gunnar | basicly, all I'm trying to do is to somehow switch via textmode only, (since I'mm ssh'd into my linuxbox here) to a running process which was started via cron and view it's current output. | 20:19 |
| gunnar | is that possible? | 20:19 |
| Bashing-om | bernhard: The question is IF that package were installed, would it help in you Lexmark printing problem ? I do not have a Lexmark printer so I can not directly advise. | 20:20 |
| brunch875 | I've never used cron before, but from the looks of it on what I'm reading around the internets, the output is discarded unless specified otherwise | 20:20 |
| gunnar | that's what I thought... | 20:20 |
| gunnar | Should have told cron to mail me the output. | 20:21 |
| gunnar | Well it's a project for tomorrow. | 20:21 |
| pizzaops | brunch875: cron output goes to rootmail | 20:21 |
| pizzaops | unless you redirect it | 20:21 |
| gunnar | hmmmm | 20:21 |
| gunnar | root mail? | 20:21 |
| pizzaops | yes. | 20:21 |

| kro2488 | i think its a bug, cuz i was reading somewhere alot of people have it happen | 20:39 |
| Kaby | zykotick9, i am not having any issue , but on windows i use programs to hide my ip here on ubuntu i don't know what software to hide my ip they told me about tor but i have 0 info about it | 20:39 |
| kro2488 | using the mouse to try and hit restart fails as well | 20:40 |
| kro2488 | so hence i just use power button | 20:40 |
| guntbert | kro2488: no fix but a pssible workaround: press <ctrl><alt>F1, you should get a console window, now press <alt>F7, you should be back to your login screen, can you enter the password now? | 20:40 |
| hecatae | kro2488: have you checked your bios settings, does it state to keep usb powered when the pc is inactive, or is it set to sleep, it's usually the legacy usb option | 20:40 |

| gunnar | Yeah.. root got no mail from cron. Probably because I didn't tell cron to mail any output. | 20:49 |
| goeran | reinstall ubuntu or windows or just install the bootloader to an third device | 20:49 |
| dylan | thegreat trhy update grub? | 20:49 |
| gunnar | But that's ok, I'll just edit my crontab and tell it to mail the output to me. | 20:49 |
| dylan | try* | 20:49 |
| thegrreat | goeran the problem is that i can only boot ubuntu and ubuntu live cd | 20:50 |
| thegrreat | and other linux distributions from bootable usb | 20:50 |
| gunnar | too tipsy to do it right this second though... So on the 'morrow | 20:50 |
| thegrreat | But cant boot windows install or anything else | 20:50 |

| Bashing-om | BornToFlyBert: Sorry was elsewhere, sure ya can place that 'dpkg' output to paste .. I will look at it and see what we think . | 20:53 |
| goeran | thegrat install gparted, crate new partition, install the bootloader on it | 20:53 |
| goeran | should work | 20:53 |
| thegrreat | The computer is made by sonicmaster | 20:53 |
| goeran | ok | 20:54 |

| thegrreat | And see if it works :P | 20:54 |
| goeran | or just copy it to it | 20:54 |
| goeran | u can download grub | 20:54 |
| BornToFlyBert | Bashing-om: Thank you! | 20:55 |
| goeran | i recoment u to use grub bootloader | 20:55 |
| thegrreat | Well i already got grub | 20:55 |
| goeran | ok | 20:55 |
| goeran | try it | 20:55 |
| dylan | goeran i also suggested that | 20:55 |
| goeran | xD | 20:55 |
| thegrreat | but i dont really think grub is the reason why my bootable usb wont boot :P | 20:56 |
| goeran | than choose an different one... | 20:56 |

| thegrreat | I only want to dual boot windows so i can play wow xD | 20:59 |
| Bashing-om | BornToFlyBert: Well, that says the package is installed. // so, what is the exact nature of the problem you are experiencing with the Lexmark printer ? | 20:59 |
| BornToFlyBert | If | 21:00 |
| goeran | are u connected to ur printer via wifi or lan? | 21:00 |
| gunnar | Wow.. the Lexmark is still going strong | 21:00 |
| Guest45725 | hey all | 21:01 |
| BornToFlyBert | i click on the print button it creates a print-job in cups and "sends" it to the printer but job disappears without printing it out on the paper. The scanner by the way works pretty well (this lexmark device is a scanner and a printer) | 21:01 |
| Guest45725 | why am i a guest | 21:01 |
| goeran | because u have no nickname | 21:02 |
| gunnar | I'll ust go on a limb here... I've had problems in the past with all sorts of printers while using the correct official drivers. The problem is probably a permission problem somewhere via smb. | 21:02 |
| BornToFlyBert | Bashing-om: The printer is plugged in on a usb-hub. | 21:03 |
| goeran | its possible that your printers driver is desined to work with windows | 21:03 |
| goeran | thats the problem with my printer | 21:04 |
| Kage` | How can I mount a fake-raid partition when I don't see anything except "control" in /dev/mapper ? dmraid -r shows two member disks, says they're in a group and OK, but I see nothing mountable. Additionally, I can fdisk the member disks and see they have BSD partitions in slice-format, but I cannot seemingly mount them individually, either. | 21:04 |
| goeran | kage wich tool are u using? | 21:04 |
| Kage` | For which? | 21:04 |
| BornToFlyBert | Can i make it run on ubuntu as well not only on windows? | 21:04 |
| phpcoder | hello | 21:05 |
| goeran | kage : for mounting and so on | 21:05 |
| Kage` | I'm using dmraid and fdisk and mount thus far, if that's what you mean | 21:05 |
| Bashing-om | BornToFlyBert: Sounds to me like a situation with the print spooler . But what do I know ? as I do not have a lexmark printer to even know where to look at the spool . | 21:05 |
| phpcoder | can i download somewhere ubuntu 15.04 ? | 21:05 |
| phpcoder | when it will be released? | 21:05 |
| Kage` | goeran, Using 14.04 Live CD | 21:05 |
| goeran | yes u can download it | 21:05 |
| goeran | live cd? | 21:05 |
| goeran | not usb? | 21:06 |
| goeran | but try tools like gparted | 21:06 |
| Kage` | I did | 21:06 |
| goeran | ok | 21:06 |
| Kage` | It only shows two physical disks | 21:06 |
| Kage` | Does not show a /dev/mapper anything | 21:06 |
| goeran | ähmm an cd is not writeable | 21:06 |
| goeran | normaly | 21:06 |
| phpcoder | i did not find the link to download the beta | 21:06 |
| Kage` | It is in-memory | 21:06 |
| Kage` | And I have an external HDD also mounted to recover to. | 21:06 |
| BornToFlyBert | Bahing-om: Thank you for your fast answer. I am not familar with the printer spooler either, unfortunately! | 21:07 |
| Kage` | I'm doing to try to do a ddrescue once I can figure out how to access the HDD or fakeraid | 21:07 |
| goeran | php goto settings -> updates -> versions -> use unstable versions too | 21:07 |
| BornToFlyBert | Sorry i meant Bashing-om! | 21:07 |
| goeran | and download | 21:07 |
| phpcoder | goeran, i have to install ubuntu for a new pc | 21:07 |
| goeran | but it crashed at mines 3 days ago | 21:07 |
| phpcoder | is there not an iso yet? | 21:08 |
| phpcoder | hmm | 21:08 |
| phpcoder | does it will be release this month right? | 21:08 |
| goeran | php ahh ok then where is the problem | 21:08 |
| phpcoder | goeran, is there a direct link t download the iso ? | 21:08 |
| phpcoder | p.s. is it really soo unstable? | 21:09 |
| goeran | u can install an older version to the pc and upgrade it | 21:09 |
| goeran | i dont know an iso | 21:09 |
| phpcoder | ok i will download the 14.04 | 21:09 |
| Kage` | The TL;DR here is this system is a FreeBSD 9 system, dual 1TB drives in fake-raid RAID-1 on a Dell PowerEdge. The filesystem on the array corrupted, so now I'm trying to recover it. | 21:09 |
| phpcoder | then i will upgrade when stable | 21:09 |
| me_ | intstall mint :) | 21:09 |
| goeran | thats easyest | 21:10 |
| phpcoder | :) | 21:10 |
| goeran | or use someting like kali linux there are a bunch of recovery tools | 21:10 |
| phpcoder | what are the differences from 14.04 LTS and 14.04 LTS community? | 21:11 |
| me_ | check checksums | 21:11 |
| goeran | stability and more development | 21:11 |
| Kage` | goeran, Kali just uses a bunch of OSS utils. If you recommend a specific one, tell me which and I can apt-get it. | 21:11 |
| Kage` | I have network access on this Live CD. | 21:12 |

| poz | the screen just goes black | 23:39 |
| poz | is anyone here? | 23:39 |
| CyborgCygnus | OerHeks, so individually deleted the partitions but can't delete or change the extended partition to get the free space either side of that all into one | 23:40 |
| CyborgCygnus | OerHeks, never mind it just decided to let me do it. Gosh I confuse myself sometimes | 23:42 |
| OerHeks | CyborgCygnus, delete partitions in extended, write partitiontable ( apply), then delete extended (apply) ? | 23:42 |
| OerHeks | oh oke | 23:42 |
| OerHeks | poz, to stop lightdm, switch to tty2, ctrl alt f2, then stop lightdm. after starting lightdm, switch back to the gui with ctrl alt f7 | 23:44 |
