| MannyLNJ | Hello. I have a problem. I have ubuntu on a lapptop with a cracked screen. there is a printer connectted to it. The laptop is shared on a windows network. It accepts pring jobs but nothing ever comes out of the printer. I need helop diagnosing the cause and resolviong them problem. | 00:06 |
| EriC^^ | limpc: try dpkg -l | grep gparted | 00:06 |
| limpc | EriC^^, its listed. | 00:06 |
| EriC^^ | ok, at the end of the installation the installer is supposed to remove it | 00:07 |
| EriC^^ | so i guess grub isn't the last thing that happens | 00:07 |
| limpc | so what, im screwed? | 00:08 |
| EriC^^ | limpc: anyways type apt-get install grub-efi-amd64-signed | 00:08 |
| EriC^^ | and see what happens | 00:08 |
| limpc | it installed | 00:08 |
| EriC^^ | no errors? | 00:08 |
| limpc | none | 00:09 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 00:09 |
| EriC^^ | well you could either remove the extra packages and hope after grub all it does is remove the extra packages | 00:09 |
| limpc | so obviously its not a disk problem | 00:09 |
| limpc | i dont have to run grub-install, update-grub? | 00:10 |
| EriC^^ | or try to get grub to install elsewhere or something, like install in legacy mode and then convert it etc. | 00:10 |
| EriC^^ | limpc: nah it should do that i think | 00:10 |
| EriC^^ | you can try update-grub if you want | 00:10 |

| mudtar | I'm having problems with networking on an Ubuntu 14.04 install on my Lenovo IdeaPad Z710 (LENOVO_MT_20250). During booting, the kernel buffer reads "ideapad_laptop: timeout in write_ec_cmd", and the boot screen waits for a while for networking configuration. Upon booting, networking is unavailable, but about 5 minutes later it becomes available. Here is my dmesg output: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=v5UGHBmi ; crucial points at about | 00:21 |
| mudtar | 27 seconds and 330 seconds. | 00:21 |
| pavlos | EriC^^, if you don't mind, how do you diff the manifest and installer log? | 00:22 |
| skcin7 | I have a file called "dain.odt" on my computer. How come when I type "locate dain.odt" in Terminal, nothing shows up? | 00:24 |
| skcin7 | Of course I update my db by typing "sudo updatedb" before doing this. | 00:24 |
| skcin7 | How come the "location" program isn't finding this file? | 00:24 |
| skcin7 | "locate" | 00:24 |
| daftykins | you should learn 'find' instead | 00:24 |
| skcin7 | Is "locate" faulty? | 00:25 |
| daftykins | find /path -name "dain.odt" | 00:25 |
| millerti | I have two machines, both of which should be syncing to NTP, but they're a few minutes off from each other. Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this? | 00:25 |
| millerti | Actually both are wrong, so NTP is broken on both. | 00:26 |
| abc_harold | millerti: Have you tried manually syncing the time on each? | 00:26 |
| daftykins | date -s hh:mm | 00:26 |
| daftykins | ;) | 00:26 |
| millerti | abc_harold: No, but I think I'd like to try got figure out why they're not just correct. | 00:26 |
| millerti | holy crap. ntp isn't even installed. It's like it got wiped out when I upgraded. | 00:27 |
| abc_harold | millerti: It may just be drift, computers do that over time, especially if the CMOS battery is dying | 00:27 |
| mudtar | skcin7, I realize this doesn't answer your original question, but here's info about locate vs find: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/60205/locate-vs-find-usage-pros-and-cons-of-each-other | 00:27 |
| pid1 | millerti, You might have tried this already, but have you verified that the NTP servers are up and responding, and that ufw is allowing the traffic? | 00:27 |
| abc_harold | millerti: Try installing ntpdate and using it to sync the time | 00:27 |
| millerti | I think I know what's going on. Ubuntu only syncs at boot time using ntpdate, and these systems haven't been rebooted in ages. | 00:28 |
| twiler | So, EriC, you got time to walk me through my openbazaar issue? | 00:28 |
| mudtar | skcin7, my first thought is that perhaps the file you're looking for isn't being added to the locate database when you update it. I'm not really sure how locate generates its database, but maybe it's in a blacklisted or non-whitelisted directory? | 00:28 |
| somsip | millerti: IIRC there is a difference between ntpd (which creeps towards the correct time) and ntpdate (which sets it once) | 00:28 |
| abc_harold | millerti: That might be it. You can force an update with ntpdate if you don't want to reboot. | 00:29 |
| skcin7 | It's in my home directory /home/skcin7 | 00:29 |
| millerti | somsip: Well, I'd like them to generally stay correct. | 00:29 |
| somsip | millerti: crrep towards the corrext time with ntpd and accept it will take some time before they are both in sync. Could be very wrong on this, but sure I read it somewhere | 00:29 |
| somsip | !ntp | 00:29 |
| ubottu | Information about using and setting your computer's clock on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime - See https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/NTP.html for information on usage of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) | 00:29 |
| mudtar | skcin7, do you get any errors when you type "sudo updatedb"? | 00:29 |
| millerti | somsip: You're right about that. | 00:30 |
| skcin7 | mudtar, no I do not | 00:30 |
| EriC^^ | twiler: yeah sure | 00:30 |
| EriC^^ | twiler: type dpkg -l | grep -i bazaar | 00:30 |
| somsip | millerti: drift is the correct term, not creep :) But those links in the factoid might point you in the right direction | 00:30 |
| twiler | ok. | 00:31 |
| ArgentWarrior | Hi guys | 00:31 |
| ArgentWarrior | Any reason the vmware modules won't build right against 4.0? | 00:31 |
| mudtar | skcin7, Take a look in /etc/updatedb.conf and make sure that your home directory or any of its parent directories aren't included in PRUNEPATHS | 00:31 |
| millerti | Huh. Now that ntpd is running, I get an error when I run ntpdate. | 00:31 |
| abc_harold | millerti: You must stop ntpd first | 00:32 |
| twiler | ok, I typed that | 00:32 |
| EriC^^ | pavlos: the installer log is in /var/log/installer/initial-status.gz , and the manifest is in releases.ubuntu.com i think | 00:32 |
| twiler | Nothing happens. | 00:32 |
| abc_harold | millerti: Two programs updating the time at once isn't normally great. xD | 00:32 |
| pavlos | EriC^^, good .. thx | 00:32 |
| millerti | Thanks for the help, everyone. | 00:34 |
| millerti | Also, I found this: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/NTP.html | 00:34 |
| millerti | Out of date but good enough. | 00:34 |
| abc_harold | millerti: Glad we could be of help :) | 00:36 |
| ArgentWarrior | Why does this happen? | 00:37 |
| ArgentWarrior | http://puu.sh/hd6Hw/9c1b6b82cc.png | 00:37 |
| EriC^^ | pavlos: so wget http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.manifest and then diff <( awk '{print$1}' ubuntu....manifest) <(gzip -dc /var/log/installer/initial-status.gz | sed -n 's/^Package: //p' | sort -u) | 00:37 |
| pid1 | ArgentWarrior, What does /tmp/vmware-root/vmware-*.log say? | 00:38 |
| pid1 | The output indicates that is something concerning the vbox's network configs. Your logfiles should give you enough details to debug it | 00:39 |
| ArgentWarrior | Could vbox be conflicting with workstation somehow? | 00:39 |
| EriC^^ | twiler: did it return anything? | 00:40 |
| newbnewb | EricC are you still here? | 00:40 |
| EriC^^ | pavlos: i think comm should be used instead of diff | 00:40 |
| EriC^^ | so it finds the packages that are there but not in the other | 00:41 |
| newbnewb | I decided to download VLC so I coulc watch a movie before bed...and halfway through the download the Sotware Center shut down and now won't load again just like before | 00:41 |
| newbnewb | so even though people are telling me things don't just "stop working" it did | 00:41 |
| ArgentWarrior | http://puu.sh/hd6Zr/d9b9b6770e.log | 00:41 |
| ArgentWarrior | This is vmware's log | 00:41 |
| newbnewb | so I think its time to try a new iso yeah? How do I make sure I am getting a good one? I downloaded this one right from Ubuntu | 00:42 |
| EriC^^ | pavlos: comm -23 bla bla | 00:42 |
| twiler | Hey EriC, no it didn't but, I figured out why I couldn't get it to start! | 00:42 |
| EriC^^ | twiler: why? | 00:43 |
| twiler | Now, if I could just figure out how to actually LOAD A MERCHANT list, I'd be in business! | 00:43 |
| daftykins | newbnewb: did you even check your hard disks condition first? | 00:43 |
| twiler | I wasn't in the OpenBazaar directory.. :: stupid me! :: | 00:43 |
| newbnewb | no but they had no issues with a Mint Install....how do I check them from Ubuntu? | 00:44 |
| daftykins | we don't talk about Mint ;) | 00:44 |
| twiler | Hi, dafty! | 00:44 |
| daftykins | newbnewb: "sudo apt-get install smartmontools pastebinit" then "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit" | 00:44 |
| newbnewb | what will that do? | 00:45 |
| twiler | daftykins hi!!!! | 00:45 |
| MannyLNJ | I thought I updated my ubuntu system but when I ssh in it tells me I have the same amount of updates. Any ideas? | 00:45 |
| ArgentWarrior | Ubuntu > Mint because Compiz > Muffin | 00:45 |
| newbnewb | Reading package lists... Error! E: Read error - read (5: Input/output error) E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened. | 00:46 |
| newbnewb | ouput is same error I was getting before EricC fixed it....but it suddenly stopped working again | 00:46 |
| EriC^^ | newbnewb: sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* again | 00:46 |
| EriC^^ | that's pretty odd it keeps getting messed up | 00:47 |
| newbnewb | yeah...since its so weird should I just start over? | 00:47 |
| daftykins | i think either your install media is busted, or your hardware isn't stable | 00:47 |
| newbnewb | ok how do I ensure I get a good iso? Is DL direct from Ubuntu ok? | 00:47 |
| ArgentWarrior | Check the md5 | 00:47 |
| newbnewb | its how I did it this time | 00:47 |
| twiler | Maaannnn.. I guess no one around here says A | 00:48 |
| twiler | hi!! | 00:48 |
| daftykins | they don't when they don't know who you are | 00:48 |

| newbnewb | daftykins media you mean USB boot drive? | 00:48 |
| daftykins | yes the installation medium | 00:48 |

| newbnewb | thanks....and how to check USB drive to make sure its not the problem? | 00:49 |
| newbnewb | format it? | 00:49 |
| ArgentWarrior | If you've abused that usb drive (by dd'ing to it a few too many times) it likely won't be bootable. Try a blank dvd or another usb disk if you can | 00:49 |
| newbnewb | ok | 00:50 |
| Guest22523 | Can someone help me find my touch pad drivers for my laptop so I can disable my touchpad mouse clicking? | 00:50 |
| daftykins | dd zero fill it maybe | 00:50 |

| patrick__ | Hello. I've recently installed Lubuntu 14.10 and am trying to use wine to play Heroes of Might and Magic 3. The installer runs successfully but the game itself crashes at the start. Any suggestions? | 00:51 |
| ArgentWarrior | Been a while since I used dd for that | 00:51 |
| newbnewb | argent if thats to me I have no idea what you are tellling me | 00:51 |
| daftykins | language | 00:51 |
| newbnewb | im like kindergarten level here | 00:51 |
| daftykins | newbnewb: with a Linux OS, 'dd' is an image writing / creating app | 00:52 |
| ArgentWarrior | gotta start from somewhere | 00:52 |
| newbnewb | thanks | 00:52 |
| daftykins | so you can e.g. use dd to throw a .ISO onto a flash drive | 00:52 |
| newbnewb | the drive used hasnt been used a lot | 00:52 |
| newbnewb | but I will try a DVD | 00:52 |
| daftykins | i wouldn't bother if i were you, DVD is horribly slow and nasty to boot a live session from | 00:52 |
| daftykins | sometimes it won't even work | 00:52 |
| newbnewb | so just get a new iso and remake the bootable drive? | 00:53 |
| ArgentWarrior | But if his flash drive is borked it may be the only option | 00:53 |
| mulga | anyone give me a hand at fixing this please? When run update it fails due to lack of 'free space' because its looking at install in /boot instead of /root dir. Ub 14.04l laptop install - I suspect when i performed a fresh install, EUFI (which was all new to me at the time) loader bullshit is where i where i went wrong? gparted prntscrn of partition table here > http://imgur.com/rmC38pT - any help much appreciated | 00:53 |
| daftykins | newbnewb: do you have another computer or an OS other than this ubuntu with the problem? | 00:53 |
| daftykins | ArgentWarrior: pretty low chance of that imo | 00:53 |
| newbnewb | mo | 00:53 |
| newbnewb | no | 00:53 |
| newbnewb | other laptop is osx....all fine | 00:53 |
| daftykins | newbnewb: well you can download ubuntu to that and make up the flash drive there too | 00:54 |
| newbnewb | this one had Mint 13 but I didnt like it so I tried ubuntu | 00:54 |
| daftykins | up to you | 00:54 |
| newbnewb | I tried that first time and it didnt work | 00:54 |
| deadmund | newbnewb: Mint 13 is outdated. They're on version 17 now. | 00:54 |
| newbnewb | so I made it inside mint and then installed unbuntu | 00:54 |
| deadmund | I think 18 will come out soon after Ubuntu 15.04 | 00:54 |
| newbnewb | it all seemed fine at first....then just like now software center died | 00:55 |
| newbnewb | i just want to get functioning ubuntu on here | 00:55 |
| daftykins | i'd probably memtest that machine then check the hard disk health as i suggested | 00:55 |
| newbnewb | ok how to memtest and check hard disks? | 00:55 |
| daftykins | !memtest | 00:55 |
| daftykins | damn. | 00:55 |
| daftykins | i already gave the commands for checking the hard disk | 00:55 |
| newbnewb | type "!memtest" in terminal? | 00:56 |
| daftykins | nah ignore that | 00:56 |
| newbnewb | ok sorry I am old, slow and tired.....can you tell me exactly what to type to do memtest? | 00:56 |
| === mo is now known as Guest64140 | ||
| daftykins | it's not a thing to type, it's also a bootable ISO to download and run - or it's also a boot menu option on the ubuntu disc | 00:57 |
| ArgentWarrior | When it shows that first purple screen, interrupt it by hitting an arrow key. Select your language and hit the memory test | 00:57 |
| daftykins | 'test memory' beneath 'try ubuntu' and 'install ubuntu' | 00:57 |
| newbnewb | when booting from USB or from HDD installation? | 00:57 |
| ArgentWarrior | USB | 00:57 |
| newbnewb | ok | 00:57 |
| newbnewb | thanks | 00:57 |
| ArgentWarrior | No prob mate | 00:57 |
| daftykins | but memtest can take hours - you want to do 2 passes at least | 00:58 |
| Patero-ng | I loaded the latest ubuntu ver from a usb drive and it crashed while on desktop and while I was trying to search for an app that makes me not want to use ubuntu again if is gonna be that unstable | 00:58 |

| newbnewb | does that plan sound good? | 01:01 |
| Patero-ng | ArgentWarrior good idea | 01:02 |

| newbnewb | yes and i pasted the error output | 01:16 |
| EriC^^ | you pasted that earlier before the sudo rm command.. | 01:17 |
| EriC^^ | did you run it after the sudo rm command? | 01:17 |
| newbnewb | oh....no | 01:17 |
| newbnewb | the rm command didnt work either | 01:17 |
| newbnewb | so I didnt know what to do next | 01:17 |
| EriC^^ | it did | 01:17 |
| MannyLNJ | I need help with airprint to a printer on Ubuntu 14.04 running CUPS | 01:17 |
| newbnewb | oh....it said no such file etc so I thought it failed | 01:17 |
| newbnewb | ok trying apt-get | 01:18 |
| EriC^^ | it can't delete the partial dir, but that's ok | 01:18 |
| newbnewb | can I ask what is the point of updating again though if it lasted about 30min last time? | 01:18 |
| EriC^^ | newbnewb: that's just the list of packages | 01:18 |
| EriC^^ | should take a minute or so | 01:19 |
| newbnewb | i meant when we did this before....and all seemed fixed....it just suddenly stopped working again | 01:19 |
| newbnewb | so this doesnt seem like a permanent fix | 01:19 |
| newbnewb | or are you doing this to make it work long enough to get the disk checking tools? | 01:20 |
| Joseph- | Hi, I'm trying to connect to remote server via ssh but I can choose a specific tty when I logon? | 01:20 |
| EriC^^ | well something is odd, you didn't even have the software-properties-gtk installed to select the repositories, i dont know | 01:21 |
| newbnewb | and software manager worked after you fixed it....for 30min or so then quit again | 01:21 |
| EriC^^ | newbnewb: check the disks and memtest as daftykins said | 01:21 |
| newbnewb | thats strange eh? | 01:21 |
| newbnewb | well I tried and his command came back with that parsing error stuff | 01:22 |
| EriC^^ | did you try it after sudo apt-get update? | 01:22 |
| newbnewb | i'll try again | 01:22 |
| newbnewb | yeah | 01:22 |
| newbnewb | i mean the last attempt...the one we just did has just finished | 01:22 |
| newbnewb | so I will try again | 01:22 |

| newbnewb | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10819664/ | 01:27 |
| newbnewb | this link came from second command | 01:28 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 01:28 |
| newbnewb | ah thats bad eh? lots of prefail and old age ratings | 01:28 |
| EriC^^ | i've no idea about that stuff | 01:29 |
| newbnewb | ok | 01:29 |
| newbnewb | it does say overall health passed | 01:29 |
| EriC^^ | if daftykins mentions the titanic or something then it's bad | 01:29 |

| notlennart | newbnewb: how old is the drive? | 01:29 |
| newbnewb | notlennart not sure...its a handmedown...likely from 2008ish | 01:30 |
| === Sleepnbum is now known as Guest80096 | ||
| newbnewb | it was running Mint 13 ok | 01:30 |
| notlennart | newbnewb: then i would take heed of those results | 01:30 |
| newbnewb | so saying passed doesnt mean much since it says prefail a lot? | 01:31 |
| === jack is now known as Guest30382 | ||
| notlennart | newbnewb: prefail means high chance of failure | 01:32 |
| Joseph- | /dev/pts/3 at the moment, I want to connect again but using diff. tty like 9 or something. | 01:32 |
| newbnewb | would that also explain why I have had so many problems with this installation? | 01:32 |
| notlennart | newbnewb: and on a drive approx 7 years old then its probably an accurate assessment | 01:32 |
| newbnewb | ok thanks.....its been really weird and even fixes aren't sticking | 01:33 |
| newbnewb | guess I need a new drive | 01:33 |
| newbnewb | maybe not worth with this old laptop though | 01:33 |
| pavlos | newbnewb, lines 105, 122, etc show errors on power-on ... better get another drive | 01:33 |
| notlennart | newbnewb: not to say that the drive may not fail for another year or two but it could be today or tomorrow | 01:33 |
| EriC^^ | Joseph-: why? | 01:34 |
| newbnewb | thanks guys | 01:34 |
| notlennart | newbnewb: is it sata or ide? | 01:34 |
| newbnewb | dont know have to look in settings | 01:34 |
| newbnewb | sorry dont know how to find it in ubuntu settings | 01:35 |
| newbnewb | anyway it sounds like its not long for the world | 01:35 |
| pavlos | newbnewb, using the drive model, HTS541612J9SA00, google it .. it is a SATA | 01:35 |
| newbnewb | dont think the cost of a new HD is worth it in this old thing....maybe better off with a used but newer laptop? | 01:36 |

| newbnewb | what would a cheap laptop be that would be good for ubuntu? | 01:37 |
| pavlos | newbnewb, get an SSD 60GB for about $40 | 01:38 |
| newbnewb | i'll look at them thanks | 01:38 |
| baxx | test | 01:38 |
| austneal | newbnewb: are you looking for a laptop or a disk drive? | 01:38 |

| GeekMan1222 | is there any procautions i should take when running apt-get upgrade on a dedicated ubuntu server file server | 01:40 |
| notlennart | newbnewb: if youre happy with the lapatop apart from the hard drive then just replace hard drive but 7 years for a laptop is pushing it towards eol | 01:40 |
| newbnewb | yeah....id rather not invest more in it I think | 01:40 |
| GeekMan1222 | i know in practice you should always set machines to not auto upgrade and to test them on a test machine but i dont have the luxury to do so | 01:40 |
| newbnewb | rather get somehting used with some more lifespan | 01:40 |

| baxx | EriC^^: arghhh | 01:42 |
| baxx | i tested i tested i tested i failled | 01:42 |

| GeekMan1222 | yes i did finally | 01:43 |
| GeekMan1222 | its source then destination | 01:43 |

| PHPLearner | how come when I do that terminal responds nothing | 01:48 |
| mjollnerd | Guest22523: Try out lubuntu. | 01:49 |
| EriC^^ | PHPLearner: and sudo apt-get autoremove if you want | 01:49 |
| PHPLearner | it just accepts the command but no reply messages | 01:49 |
| GeekMan1222 | hmm im not sure baxx | 01:49 |
| GeekMan1222 | have you tested the rsync command before you made the script | 01:49 |
| EriC^^ | PHPLearner: it'll remove packages that aren't needed anymore | 01:49 |
| PHPLearner | oh ok | 01:50 |
| GeekMan1222 | just to make sure you pointing things in the right place and using the right options how you want them to work | 01:50 |
| PHPLearner | thanks | 01:50 |
| GeekMan1222 | baxx | 01:50 |
| EriC^^ | ( uninstall them ) | 01:50 |
| PHPLearner | but what does sudo apt-get purge does | 01:50 |
| baxx | GeekMan1222: yeah | 01:51 |
| baxx | sorry I was just having a gander at rsync options | 01:51 |
| ArgentWarrior | purge removes config files as well as the package | 01:51 |
| ArgentWarrior | Use it if you want something gone for good | 01:52 |
| baxx | GeekMan1222: I did on a demo folder | 01:52 |
| GeekMan1222 | did it work without the fancy scripting? | 01:52 |
| baxx | GeekMan1222: what fancy scripting? | 01:52 |
| GeekMan1222 | if it didnt i would have a play around with the rsync options and such | 01:52 |
| GeekMan1222 | just in general does the command your making a script for work with out using it in a bash | 01:53 |
| GeekMan1222 | or rather a bash script | 01:53 |
| baxx | It worked fine in the demo folder that I was using it with... oh right, if I run it from CLI directly | 01:53 |
| GeekMan1222 | yes | 01:53 |

Curl still can't verify SSL, however if we point curl at the file we download, it veri | 02:26 |

| Te3-BloodyIron | what am I doing wrong? | 03:18 |
| austneal | rgb-one: I appreciate the help, btw | 03:19 |
| rgb-one | austneal: Glad to help :) | 03:19 |
| Te3-BloodyIron | should I do "&& echo$! | 03:20 |
| Te3-BloodyIron | or just one &? | 03:20 |
| rgb-one | Te3-BloodyIron: try double and if it is an and statement you want to perform | 03:21 |
| rgb-one | Te3-BloodyIron: try && if it is an and statement you want to perform | 03:21 |
| Te3-BloodyIron | well I'm trying to get the PID from the new process and echo it to a pidfile | 03:21 |
| Te3-BloodyIron | but I'll try the double & | 03:22 |
| austneal | rgb-one: Any more ideas? :/ | 03:22 |
| rgb-one | austneal: maybe it has something to do with the driver for that specific bluetooth device driver | 03:23 |

| nemanja | hi, trying to use files for accessing remote box with following ssh://user@ip-address:5222 but getting the error unvalid network location | 03:26 |
| nemanja | I'm able to access given host with ssh ip-address -p5222 but thats not what I need - I'd like to mount iso file on remote box locally via ssh | 03:30 |
| nirokato | May I have a suggestion where I can start delving into how Ubuntu accomplishes persistence for a live USB? I've already got it working, I want to learn `how` it does it now. Any reading suggestions? | 03:34 |

| gunndawg | Hello. I installed super-boot-manager to see about tweaking my plymouth display, grub, etc. I decided I didnt like it and removed it with a purge. Now when I do an autoremove or apt-get upgrade I get errors regarding "burg" files not being able to be accessed or deleted | 03:37 |
| gunndawg | its trying to remove a burg theme and errors out | 03:38 |
| rgb-one | !persistense | 03:43 |
| rgb-one | !persistence | 03:43 |
| ubottu | To have some persistent storage when using a Live CD, follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence | 03:43 |
| Joseph222 | Hello everyone. | 03:45 |
| rgb-one | nirokato: If you want reading material on the how to of persistence you can check the Archlinux wiki | 03:45 |
| gzcwnk | I am trying to install drdb8-utils in 14.04 and it doesnt seem to be there...how do I find it and install it? | 03:45 |
| Joseph222 | I'm currently using Ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop, and when I close the laptop lid off and then re-open, this error is being shown: http://i.imgur.com/pPtVAyG.jpg | 03:45 |
| Joseph222 | Any idea what that that is and how to solve it? I'm required to restart the laptop every time this happens and it's super annoying. | 03:46 |
| rgb-one | gzcwnk: apt-cache search drbd8-utils | 03:47 |
| rgb-one | gzcwnk: you misspelled it | 03:48 |
| gunndawg | sudo aptitude remove burg | 03:48 |
| gunndawg | can that work? | 03:48 |
| gzcwnk | oops, LOL, ta | 03:48 |
| rgb-one | gunndawg: reinstall grub | 03:49 |
| CountryfiedLinux | howdy | 03:49 |
| nirokato | gunndawg: you might try: sudo apt-get remove --purge burg | 03:49 |
| * valleycat can't connect to her university housing wifi :s | 03:49 | |
| gunndawg | nirokato: tried that also | 03:49 |
| CountryfiedLinux | Software Center isn't behaving. Pastebinning the output now. | 03:49 |
| nirokato | gunndawg: aw, gocha | 03:49 |
| gunndawg | rgb-one: What's the easiest way to reinstall grub? | 03:50 |
| CountryfiedLinux | http://pastebin.com/7spB2gPM | 03:50 |
| CountryfiedLinux | For some reason Software Center won't open with my theme. | 03:50 |
| nirokato | gunndawg: I've used this in the past, http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd | 03:51 |
| gunndawg | nirokato: used what? | 03:51 |
| gunndawg | ah ok | 03:51 |
| gunndawg | nirokato: so this burg error I'm getting is related to grub? | 03:51 |
| gzcwnk | valleycat do you have to sign in? | 03:51 |
| nirokato | This will ensure that you have an unbroken bootloader, then you can go through and manually purge burg | 03:52 |
| valleycat | yeah, it won't sign in, though | 03:52 |
| gzcwnk | valleycat do you get an IP off teh wifi? | 03:52 |
| * valleycat is an idiot and has no clue what that means | 03:53 | |
| gzcwnk | valleycat how do you sign in with a web browser? | 03:54 |
| valleycat | oh, no | 03:54 |
| gzcwnk | valleycay can you open an xterm? | 03:55 |
| nirokato | gunndawg: ^^ You should revert back to vanilla grub first, then you can go through and manually purge the old burg files | 03:55 |
| * valleycat nods | 03:55 | |
| gunndawg | nirokato: not exactly sure how to do that | 03:55 |
| gzcwnk | type in ifconfig | 03:55 |
| gzcwnk | does inet addr: for eth0 have an IP address? | 03:56 |
| shadaloo | hi | 03:56 |
| nirokato | rgb-one: thanks for the tip on the persistence, I'll take a look into the Archlinux wiki | 03:56 |
| shadaloo | i just got a bluetooth adapter and when I open bluetooth settings it says "no bluetooth adapters found" | 03:56 |
| nirokato | gunndawg: Do you have the install media for Ubuntu available (CD/DVD/LiveUSB)? | 03:56 |
| shadaloo | however, my iphone detects the bluetooth device | 03:57 |
| gunndawg | yeah | 03:57 |
| valleycat | UP? | 03:57 |
| valleycat | oh, inet address | 03:57 |
| valleycat | same thing? | 03:58 |
| gzcwnk | did your uni ppl give u no instructions? usually you use a web browser to sign in then you get wifi | 03:58 |
| valleycat | it doesn't have any for linux/ubuntu | 03:58 |
| shadaloo | valleycat: | 03:59 |
| shadaloo | you probably need to add your mac address somewhere | 03:59 |
| gzcwnk | so for windows what do you do? | 03:59 |
| shadaloo | so your school network can recognize you | 03:59 |
| nirokato | gunndawg: the link I posted earlier will instruct you on how to repair your GRUB2 installation for Ubuntu which will overwrite the super-boot-manager 'burg' files (which is 'grub' backwards). Once that's done you can go through the `burg` files and delete them manually as they are no longer needed since GRUB has been installed as your default bootloader. | 03:59 |
| valleycat | and https://uits.kennesaw.edu/docs/netaccess/guides/ubuntu10_wifi_instructions.pdf doesn't work | 03:59 |
| gunndawg | nirokato: makes sense. Thanks a bunch! | 04:00 |
| valleycat | which is the instructions for the campus wifi | 04:00 |
| gunndawg | nirokato: Will those same instructions work for Kubuntu? I may reinstall it on another system as swell that has Kubuntu | 04:01 |
| gzcwnk | well that is ubuntu so u should be OK....when you click on the wifi icon you get no networks come up? | 04:01 |
| nirokato | gunndawg: yep, it'll work for Kubuntu as well | 04:02 |
| shadaloo | i just got a bluetooth adapter and when I open bluetooth settings it says "no bluetooth adapters found" | 04:02 |
| shadaloo | however, my iphone detects the bluetooth device | 04:02 |

| shadaloo | as i already said | 04:07 |
| gzcwnk | they gave you an acocunt and password? | 04:07 |
| shadaloo | you probably need to log into your school's IT site | 04:07 |
| shadaloo | and find where to add your MAC address | 04:07 |
| shadaloo | to the network | 04:07 |
| shadaloo | otherwise you won't associate | 04:07 |

| Zerkalerka | yes | 05:55 |
| lotuspsychje | !info nvidia-prime | Zerkalerka you need this package mate | 05:56 |
| ubottu | Zerkalerka you need this package mate: nvidia-prime (source: nvidia-prime): Tools to enable NVIDIA's Prime. In component main, is optional. Version 0.6.7 (utopic), package size 11 kB, installed size 102 kB (Only available for i386; amd64) | 05:56 |
| Zerkalerka | Ah, I am not running ubuntu at the moment, I spent days trying to get it to work correctly last time, but when 15.04 official comes out I am going to install again. Just hoping it is easier this time around. lol | 05:57 |

| matt|home | howdy. im having some graphical problems , getting unity/gnome/whatever it's called working. i had a friend help me set it up, but after i did a software upgrade(the automatic installer one) and rebooted, it's only booting into xfce now. if i select default from the login screen, it just shows a background picture with no menus or anything | 07:18 |
| matt|home | i know for a fact i didn't change any config files or anything like that, all i did was install some upgrades with the graphical manager | 07:18 |
| matt|home | so.. can someone help? | 07:18 |
| stangeland | geirha, its a localhost server only. never exposed to web...this is nothing but development | 07:18 |
| Ben64 | stangeland: why do things the wrong way though | 07:19 |
| stangeland | nevermind | 07:19 |
| geirha | stangeland: I'd take the time to learn unix permissions regardless. You'll need it eventually. | 07:20 |
| stangeland | geirha, not possible in 40 minutes ;) | 07:20 |
| Ben64 | very possible in 40 minutes. possible in 10 minutes. | 07:20 |
| matt|home | oh and i did apt-get update/upgrade today, if that makes a difference | 07:21 |
| geirha | http://mywiki.wooledge.org/Permissions | 07:21 |
| fidel_ | matt|home: and you see only a black background if you choose ubuntu/unity in the login-manager? | 07:21 |
| matt|home | no , i see the default background picture for xfce (the little rat) | 07:22 |
| matt|home | if i select that one | 07:22 |
| matt|home | but no side menus, no right click drown down menu etc | 07:22 |
| matt|home | drop down* | 07:22 |
| === erkan is now known as Guest74736 | ||
| matt|home | fidel_ : and like i said, it was working fine with unity before i did the upgrade | 07:23 |
| geirha | matt|home: make sure the ubuntu-desktop package is installed | 07:23 |

| mehdi | hey guys i have installed adobe flash player & pepperflashplayer but only adobe works on firefox and i use opera as defualt browser | 07:24 |
| mehdi | how can i activate flash plugin in opera 28? | 07:24 |
| geirha | matt|home: as a command, you run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 07:24 |
| geirha | or you can search it up in the software center and check/install from there | 07:25 |
| TheNumb | mehdi: opera might use hardcoded path for chrome's pepper flash plugin. I'm not sure. | 07:25 |
| TheNumb | It used to work when I had both installed. | 07:25 |
| matt|home | well , i did that. | 07:27 |
| matt|home | i'll try rebooting, see if it works this time | 07:27 |
| mehdi | in 14.04 it seems the path doesn't work here is the Install path :/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera | 07:27 |

| matt|home | fidel_ , geirha : same problem. | 07:30 |
| geirha | matt|home: did the apt-get install anything or did it just say already installed? | 07:30 |
| matt|home | it's just showing the background image and mouse cursor and nothing else | 07:30 |
| matt|home | uh . i dont remember, it did something for about five seconds then put me back at the prompt. no error messages | 07:30 |
| geirha | ok, probably already installed then | 07:31 |
| geirha | at the login screen, do you have multiple sessions to pick from? | 07:32 |
| matt|home | yeah. xfce , default ubuntu , uh.... a couple others, one with a weird name | 07:32 |
| matt|home | xorg? compiz something? | 07:32 |
| matt|home | compiz i think | 07:32 |
| === Guest98902 is now known as bitnumus | ||
| matt|home | im just using xfce since it took .5 seconds to install and is lightweight enough for me to test, i'd really like to be able to use unity again.. | 07:33 |
| geirha | and you used the default ubuntu now, right? | 07:33 |
| matt|home | thats the one im logged into yes. also , i dont know if this makes a difference or not | 07:33 |
| matt|home | but when i first installed the OS, it just said ubuntu on the loading screen. now it says 'kubuntu' | 07:34 |
| matt|home | dunno why | 07:34 |
| oriceon | Hello there | 07:34 |
| geirha | perhaps you installed the kubuntu-desktop package at some point | 07:34 |
| oriceon | I have two vm with ubuntu 14 | 07:34 |
| matt|home | maybe, i dunno | 07:34 |
| oriceon | I tryed to connect from one to another on a mysql server | 07:34 |
| oriceon | but get connection refused | 07:35 |
| oriceon | I did a sudo netstat -tlnp |grep 3306 | 07:35 |
| oriceon | and get tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN | 07:35 |
| geirha | oriceon: 127.0.0.1:3306 means it is only listening on localhost | 07:35 |
| faust | oriceon: you should configure your mysql server to listen on 0.0.0.0 | 07:36 |
| Hiz | a | 07:36 |
| oriceon | and how can i make it to work remote? | 07:36 |
| oriceon | bind-address 0.0.0.0 ? from my.cnf | 07:36 |
| oriceon | or? | 07:36 |
| matt|home | geirha : im able to switch back and forth between the gui and commandline, so it's not like it crashed or anything. is it just not loading ? i dunno what to do ;_; | 07:36 |
| TheNumb | faust: why would he want to listen on all interfaces? | 07:37 |
| matt|home | uh, xinitrc says 'exec unity' - should that be exec ubuntu-desktop instead? | 07:37 |
| faust | TheNumb: because he is asking it | 07:37 |
| geirha | matt|home: Well, at the VT, running sudo service lightdm restart should bring you back to the graphical login screen. Try some other sessions to... you have an xinitrc? | 07:38 |
| matt|home | geirha : yeah. but no dot before it, just xinitrc | 07:38 |
| matt|home | looks like no matter what session i try, it only displays the background image. xfce is working for some reason however | 07:39 |
| geirha | matt|home: Hm. Ok, so login with the unity one again, then switch to a VT and look inside ~/.xsession-errors for some clues | 07:40 |

| matty|home | this is like the fifth time ive had the stupid nvidia driver error | 07:52 |
| matty|home | how can i permanently fix this :/ | 07:52 |
| oriceon | yap, now workin | 07:52 |
| oriceon | thanks for your time | 07:52 |
| geirha | matty|home: the kernel was probably updated, which means the nvidia kernel module must be built again | 07:53 |
| matty|home | son of a bitch... | 07:53 |
| geirha | matty|home: If the driver was installed via Ubuntu's repositories, that would've been done automatically | 07:53 |
| matty|home | okay. is there a way to make it installed via the repo | 07:53 |
| somsip | matty|home: first tidy up wherever you installed it from previously. Which was...where? | 07:54 |

| mcphail | PHPLearner: that's generally the right design, as most people don't directly edit the production environment and work on a copy instead. But you can change the permissions on /var/www/html to whatever you want | 08:28 |
| PHPLearner | I alreadydid | 08:28 |

| Ben64 | don't do 777 | 08:28 |
| PHPLearner | then what | 08:28 |

| loganlee | hello | 10:39 |
| stevenm | Hi, I've been sent an Adobe After Effect project (basically a Video) - so I've got all the individual vector files that were used in making the video... I'd like to remake the video using these individual files - what program is best on Ubuntu for this? | 10:46 |
| stevenm | I was thinking LibreOffice Impress might suffice (and perhaps export to mp4 video) but the transitions/effects are a bit limiting on the image objects | 10:47 |
| loganlee | can u run civ v on wine? | 10:58 |
| mcphail | loganlee: don't know, but you can run it natively on Ubuntu | 10:58 |
| loganlee | mcphail, i have PC copy and i don't want to buy one for linux | 10:59 |
| mcphail | loganlee: does the PC copy have a steam key? | 10:59 |
| loganlee | mcphail, what is a steam key? | 11:00 |
| mcphail | loganlee: a numeric key for the Steam digital download service? | 11:00 |
| loganlee | mcphail, i dont know | 11:00 |
| stevenm | loganlee, some normal PC game serial number also work on steam (without needing to buy again) so your product can be downloaded on there too... since steam doesn't care about platform - you'd then have access to the linux version for nothing | 11:01 |
| stevenm | see this list... https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7480-wusf-3601 | 11:01 |
| stevenm | civ 5 is on there - your in luck :) | 11:01 |
| mcphail | loganlee: have a look. If there is a steam key you will have the Linux version for free | 11:01 |
| stevenm | mcphail, doesn't have to be a steam key - that's what I'm saying | 11:01 |
| stevenm | valve have programmed their steam to accept other non-steam keys | 11:02 |
| mcphail | stevenm: missed that as I was distracted when typing :) | 11:02 |
| stevenm | cd keys basically | 11:02 |

| lotuspsychje | nalum: might be reccomended to install with cable + updates enabled during setup so ubuntu will search latest broadcom drivers too | 11:23 |
| geirha | scorpio_: «All components of the pathname must be root-owned directories that are not writable by any other user or group.» | 11:24 |

| aleray | hi, how can install a more recent version of webkit and epiphany than the ones shipped with ubuntu 14.04 by default ? | 11:25 |
| lotuspsychje | nalum: you might wanna try that bcmlw firmware package | 11:26 |
| mcphail | aleray: the LTS releases is designed to be stable, and does not support "more recent versions" by default. You may be able to find a PPA for your packages, but be aware that PPA's can break things in unexpected ways. | 11:29 |

| lotuspsychje | Eightynine: check your logs: syslog, dmesg | 11:52 |
| bazhang | what hardware Eightynine | 11:52 |
| Eightynine | I'm currently using AMD processor and graphics but I'm planning to build Intel-based system. My motherboard uses BIOS and the new one will be with UEFI. | 11:54 |
| svetlana | backup; reinstall; restore useful stuff from backup | 11:54 |
| h9x | some help guys | 11:54 |
| Eightynine | It's required because of UEFI? | 11:54 |
| EriC^^ | h9x: what exactly is the issue? | 11:55 |
| lotuspsychje | Eightynine: whats required? | 11:55 |
| svetlana | Eightynine: that, and the architecture change, are my guess | 11:55 |
| Eightynine | To backup and reinstall system as svetlana said. | 11:55 |
| EriC^^ | Eightynine: you could copy your whole installation if you wanted, but why not start fresh and copy the backup stuf | 11:56 |
| lotuspsychje | fresh installs are the best | 11:56 |
| OerHeks | Eightynine, backup your data and try it? my best guess is that you need some steps to make UEFI work. | 11:56 |
| OerHeks | !uefi | 11:56 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 11:56 |
| Eightynine | Because I installed it a few days ago. By the way I found a cause of my problem with Software Updater. It was a conflict with LXDE. | 11:57 |
| lotuspsychje | Eightynine: did you try to update from terminal? | 11:57 |
| cossy | by the python? | 11:58 |
| Eightynine | I'll try it but I've just opened it in XFCE for a second time and now it works but lags a bit. | 11:58 |
| bazhang | how much ram there Eightynine | 11:59 |
| Eightynine | 4 GB | 11:59 |
| bazhang | what graphics card model and how old is the computer Eightynine | 11:59 |
| Eightynine | Radeon 6750 and my computer is 3 years old(I built it in 2012) though hardware is pretty old(I mean generation) | 12:00 |
| Eightynine | Python is evil, guys. | 12:01 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, you are going to get a completely new computer, why are doing this now | 12:02 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, stay on topic please | 12:02 |
| k1l | Eightynine: is the right video driver installed and loaded? what says (h)top to the system load when you have that lag? | 12:02 |
| svetlana | doing what? i think he/she intends to reinstall | 12:02 |
| svetlana | nothing wrong with that | 12:02 |
| bazhang | k1l, that card is ancient as far as amd support goes | 12:03 |
| Eightynine | I have a client who wants to upgrade his 10 years old PC and I asked him if he wants to buy my PC and seems like he agreed. | 12:03 |
| svetlana | no problem; go ahead | 12:03 |
| === gauss is now known as asunder | ||
| Eightynine | Not my system lags, it's only program loading list for a long time. | 12:04 |
| svetlana | didn't get that | 12:04 |
| svetlana | when did it start lagging | 12:04 |
| Eightynine | I'm oppening that tool and clicking on any item and than Details and waiting a few seconds until it shows details about updates. | 12:05 |
| bazhang | which tool is that Eightynine | 12:05 |
| OerHeks | Eightynine, is a few seconds bad? | 12:06 |
| OerHeks | .. come on .. | 12:06 |
| Eightynine | XFCE works pretty good but font rendering could be better and some items are small. MATE has a menu lags. | 12:06 |
| svetlana | OerHeks: yes it is bad | 12:06 |
| Eightynine | I mean Software Updater tool. | 12:06 |
| svetlana | Eightynine: is it on your old computer or on your new computer | 12:06 |
| k1l | what cpu is it? | 12:07 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, did you install the restricted-extras as we suggested | 12:07 |
| k1l | Eightynine: and what about the details on the system load i requested? | 12:07 |
| Eightynine | I thought it should open details right after mouse click. | 12:07 |
| Eightynine | I'll install extras now. | 12:07 |
| bazhang | that depends entirely on the total system usage, cpu processes ram etc | 12:08 |
| svetlana | am I the only one who doesn't follow | 12:08 |
| Eightynine | svetlana I havent changed my PC yet. | 12:08 |
| svetlana | so it's on the old computer | 12:09 |
| svetlana | was it always like this or did this slowness start recently | 12:09 |
| Eightynine | System load is up to 6% and RAM is loaded on 20% | 12:09 |
| === thomas_ is now known as Guest59817 | ||
| Eightynine | It's started recently and speaking about MATE when I used it before it's menu lagged only after boot and then began to work good and when I tried it on Ubuntu it lags almost everytime and sometimes looses icons. | 12:11 |
| TheNumb | Eightynine: maybe the gpu is dying | 12:11 |
| TheNumb | anything in dmesg? | 12:11 |
| svetlana | ok then i need to forget all the garbage about moving computers and start over | 12:12 |
| Eightynine | I think that the right decision will be to remove all except Fluxbox and XFCE though I consider XFCE unusable. | 12:12 |
| k1l | Eightynine: you are telling unspecific stories. please give way more details. like cpu that is used. what does system load say (not the processes) | 12:13 |
| k1l | *sight* | 12:13 |
| svetlana | so your problem is 'xfce does not lag but MATE does', right? | 12:13 |
| svetlana | k1l: i am trying to not go that tech savvy yet | 12:13 |
| svetlana | just to understand the issue | 12:13 |
| MonkeyDust | Eightynine yes, linux/ubuntu offers a lot of choice... if you don't lik eit, don't use it, use something else | 12:13 |
| Eightynine | Yes, that's right. | 12:13 |
| svetlana | ah | 12:13 |
| MonkeyDust | typos* | 12:13 |
| Eightynine | And LXDE is buggy. So I should remove them. | 12:14 |
| === Snowstormer is now known as cats | ||
| svetlana | yeah, remove lxde and mate, and poke #xfce about making xfce usable | 12:14 |
| svetlana | it's very customizable last i checked | 12:14 |
| svetlana | recommend package shimmer-themes, it makes it look pretty | 12:14 |
| === EriC^ is now known as EriC^^ | ||
| Eightynine | Thanks. I'll install extras as you recommend, remove LXDE and MATE and check dmesg | 12:15 |
| svetlana | well | 12:15 |
| svetlana | i think extras stuff was meant to be useful together with lxde or mate to see if the problem goes away | 12:15 |
| srvn | alacarte not working in ELEMENTARY OS Luna. running but cannot add or edit. | 12:15 |
| Eightynine | Should I use Software Center or terminal to do that? | 12:15 |
| svetlana | if you're not using lxde or mate it's probably useful | 12:15 |
| Bluewolf | Hi all, Anyone know much about themes. I have Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 installed and I prefer my interface to be dark due to eye problems, yet the default theme which I like (Adwaita Dark) does not work on LibreOffice, Gimp and VLC which I use most. Anyone know how to get it dark? | 12:15 |
| svetlana | you can use the software center, it works to do this | 12:15 |
| bazhang | the first complaint was about fonts, thus the extras package | 12:16 |
| k1l | srvn: ask the elementary guys what to do about that. we cant help there | 12:16 |
| svetlana | ah | 12:16 |
| svetlana | okay, install extras, remove mate, remove lxde | 12:16 |
| svetlana | i am okay with this solution | 12:16 |
| svetlana | :) | 12:16 |
| Eightynine | MATE and LXDE has better font rendering and file manager but LXDE has ancient look and feel. | 12:16 |
| svetlana | free to share #xfce your screenshots of font issues, it's got full fonts configuring power (there is a special dialog), and the extras thingy will help | 12:17 |
| k1l | Eightynine: choose what you like. but we dont need to argue about what you like best in here. start a blog for your personal ranting. | 12:17 |
| svetlana | he isn't ranting | 12:17 |
| svetlana | he's solving a problem with performance and sharing thoughts on bugs | 12:17 |
| svetlana | (or she) | 12:18 |
| svetlana | if someone is ranting, that'd be me :) | 12:18 |
| Eightynine | I got message during update installation: "System problem detected. Do you want to report now?" | 12:18 |
| svetlana | yes, report it | 12:18 |
| svetlana | it'll tell you what's the problem while you go through the reporting process | 12:18 |
| Eightynine | Now it asks to restart my PC. Maybe click "Later"? | 12:19 |
| ViK_de | hi guys! How do you manage to get iphone woriking in kubuntu? i got it workin in ubuntu gnome and rythmbox out of the box but with kubuntu i cannot even get the iphone in dolphin S: | 12:19 |
| svetlana | Eightynine: if you can restart now, it'd be better. it must have upgraded something important that would break a bit if you don't restart (this is rare, usually just for the kernel upgrades). | 12:20 |
| svetlana | if you click 'later', try to do it as soon as you reasonably can. | 12:20 |
| Eightynine | It installed kernel update which fix issues. It says something about CVE etc | 12:21 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, what does lsb_release -a in terminal say | 12:21 |
| Eightynine | Will it better to restart now or first remove MATE and LXDE and then restart to apply updates? | 12:22 |
| svetlana | Eightynine: right - that's why. it's okay to delay it but you'll be running a vulnerable kernel while you wait, and some programs might act up a little and complain that they don't see something. | 12:22 |
| svetlana | better restart first, I'd say; mate or lxde removal won't ask you for another restart. | 12:22 |
| Eightynine | Description:Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS | 12:22 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, there is simply no need to remove mate etc, that will not fix your current issues | 12:22 |
| svetlana | bazhang: they're slow, he dislikes them. his call. | 12:23 |
| bazhang | svetlana, completely unneccesary | 12:23 |
| Eightynine | LXDE is buggy and MATE is slow. | 12:23 |
| svetlana | bazhang: i think it's good advice to suggest people remove the software they dislike. | 12:23 |
| OerHeks | Eightynine, first restart, then remove stuff | 12:23 |
| Eightynine | Thanks for help. | 12:24 |
| svetlana | (of course, they can keep all software installed,if they have the space. but they won't use it.) | 12:24 |
| Eightynine | I can't understand why fonts and icons are better in MATE and why is everything is small in XFCE. | 12:24 |
| svetlana | i don't know how mate works, but xfce has a fonts preferences dialog where you can set font size, aliasing, hinting, and dpi - i think it should do the job | 12:25 |
| Eightynine | I have a lot of space but no need to use something that unnecessary. | 12:25 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, this goes back to you not having installed the extras package as we long ago suggested | 12:25 |
| svetlana | to avoid confusion, i would not come back to fonts before rebooting and installing the extra fonts | 12:25 |
| Eightynine | Those extras needed only for XFCE? | 12:26 |
| svetlana | yes | 12:26 |
| bazhang | svetlana, thats simply not correct | 12:26 |
| Eightynine | Oh, it's clear now. | 12:26 |
| svetlana | or not | 12:26 |
| Eightynine | I'm restarting. See you later. | 12:27 |
| svetlana | i thought they'd be needed only for xfce if the things work ok in other des -- i thought they use something else that replaces these extras | 12:27 |
| svetlana | bye, see you | 12:27 |
| svetlana | can i shoot something for subjecting me to a discussion where a user has xfce-specific fonts issues and is suggested to install a package which is not xfce-specific | 12:28 |
| svetlana | instead of going and looking into the xfce font preferences dialog | 12:28 |
| bazhang | shoot something? | 12:28 |
| svetlana | yes | 12:28 |
| svetlana | since i am not allowed to yell at people or shoot people, i have to resort to yelling at things or shooting things | 12:29 |
| EriC^^ | is it shooting season already? | 12:29 |

| Eightynine | Restarted my system and it said that problem appeared and asked me to report it. And now it says "Sorry, internal system error appeared". I opened details and I can see that cause is Grub" Grub-mount crashed with SIGSEGV in memmove() | 12:32 |
| amahoola | i hate it when my apps get autorejected from developer.ubuntu.com :P | 12:36 |
| OerHeks | amahoola, we don't, do you have an ubuntu support question? | 12:36 |
| Bluewolf | Hi all, Anyone know much about themes. I have Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 installed and I prefer my interface to be dark due to eye problems, yet the default theme which I like (Adwaita Dark) does not work on LibreOffice, Gimp and VLC which I use most. Anyone know how to get it dark? | 12:37 |
| bazhang | Bluewolf, how to theme those particular apps? | 12:38 |
| bazhang | Bluewolf, did you mean something like skins for vlc and so on | 12:38 |
| Eightynine | My system is a mess. How can I completely remove Gnome, MATE and LXDE? | 12:39 |
| amahoola | OerHeks, well, no, my app will probably get published after the manual review | 12:39 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, what other de do you have installed | 12:40 |
| amahoola | OerHeks, just like my other apps that got autorejected | 12:40 |
| Bluewolf | bazhang: Well yes something like that. I have the theme installed and yet those applications do not use it, not to mention that the test in Ubuntu Software Centre is barely visible. | 12:40 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, removing those will not fix or remove the mess | 12:40 |
| Eightynine | Fluxbox and XFCE | 12:40 |
| splitwire | Eightynine - can't you just uninstall all the programs that were installed with those desktops and then uninstall the desktops | 12:40 |
| bazhang | Bluewolf, the test? did you mean text | 12:41 |
| Eightynine | It's a long process can I use terminal? | 12:41 |
| splitwire | I think so | 12:41 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, we have no idea what you did | 12:41 |
| splitwire | if you can make a list then you could just type out a script to do it all | 12:41 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, better to just get the xubuntu iso, and start over | 12:41 |
| splitwire | I agree with bazhang | 12:42 |
| Eightynine | I have Gnome splash in my system. | 12:42 |
| splitwire | if you want to try out a lot of different desktops, use a VM and then just burn it when you're done | 12:42 |
| Bluewolf | bazhang: Yes the text, pardon me. | 12:42 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, and the very first step is to install xubuntu-restricted-extras package following the initail update and upgrade | 12:42 |
| bazhang | Bluewolf, I seem to recall vlc being skinnable, not sure about gimp however | 12:43 |
| bazhang | Bluewolf, I know that a much lighter music player, audacious is extremely skinnable, as is the all in one replacement for vlc , smplayer | 12:44 |
| === scb is now known as simalps | ||
| MonkeyDust | audacious is awesome | 12:44 |
| MrNumber3isme | Hello room. Anybody knowledgable in the area of permissions granting? | 12:45 |
| Eightynine | I think DeadBeef is a good player and SMPlayer is better for video. | 12:45 |
| bazhang | Bluewolf, audactious is appararently qute similar to winamp, if you are familiar with that, in terms of being skinnable | 12:45 |
| === simalps is now known as etg | ||
| Mitt | MrNumber3isme what's the question? | 12:45 |
| === etg is now known as simmalps | ||
| Eightynine | I installed Synaptic | 12:45 |
| Mitt | Eightynine Parole is good for both | 12:46 |
| bazhang | !permissions | MrNumber3isme | 12:46 |
| ubottu | MrNumber3isme: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 12:46 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, why are you doing that | 12:46 |
| Bluewolf | bazhang: Well to be honest I have heard of themes for VLC, though the biggest problem for me is LibreOffice and Gimp, I do most of my work in these for long hours which definitely affects my eyes. | 12:46 |
| Bluewolf | I don't use audactious | 12:46 |
| Eightynine | I tried to use Parole a few years ago and didn't like it. Maybe now it's much better. | 12:46 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, you have a very long road ahead in trying to remove the entirety of those de and all the associated applications | 12:47 |
| Eightynine | bazhang I'm doing it to remove DEs that I don't need and install extras. | 12:47 |
| EriC^^ | i'm using gmusic-browser , it's light and nice | 12:47 |
| MrNumber3isme | When I access any SD card I insert, the card mounts as read only. using chmod does nothing. I have to remount through terminal. the real problem is that when I try to navigate through the folders on the SD card, the permissions reset to read only. I'm getting real tired of having to remount the card every time I change folders. | 12:47 |
| bazhang | Bluewolf, ok, just a suggestion | 12:47 |
| splitwire | Eightynine, what he is trying to tell you is that you are going to have issues if you do not get all the programs and packages associated with each unique de you are removing also uninstalled | 12:48 |
| splitwire | it would be easier to bu your data, nuke and pave a new install | 12:48 |
| Eightynine | I'm trying to remove gnome-session and it asks to remove ubuntu-session. | 12:48 |
| MrNumber3isme | specifically, the command I end up using is | 12:49 |
| cfhowlett | splitwire is correct. way more sane! | 12:49 |
| MrNumber3isme | mount --options remount,rwx /dev/sdb1 | 12:49 |
| Bluewolf | bazhang: As a matter of interest, there is a theme called Gnomish Dark which themes all the applications in question, although it is a bit brighter and I do not like it much. I am forced to use it as its better than the bright background. | 12:49 |
| EriC^^ | MrNumber3isme: i think there's no rwx, just rw | 12:50 |
| Bluewolf | Would fiddling with themes be a pain? | 12:50 |
| EriC^^ | -o remount,rw | 12:50 |
| MrNumber3isme | @eric, no avail. still acting up. | 12:51 |

| jonascj | I am installing texlive in ubuntu 14.04, and currently it is going very very slow: "Get:20 http://dk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main texlive-pstricks all 2013.20140215-2 [26.2 MB]" is going at 19kb/s, taking 2 hours. Right before other packages were going at 4mb/s. | 13:25 |
| swizgard_ | hi. any ideas why using apt-cacher-ng gives me hash-sum mismatches quite often? | 13:25 |
| swizgard_ | (making it quite unusable) | 13:26 |

| OerHeks | swizgard_, then go look for the issue there, not on your workstation | 13:32 |

| eonbluez | howdy all --- is there a site where I can search across multiple repos for packages? | 14:13 |
| eonbluez | I need specific versions of ruby and wanted to search for an existing one before I package my own | 14:14 |
| JunkHunk | hello I need to keep the current kernel version how do I set it as default? system updates wants to install the latest and therefore the current one will be out of grub startup list... preventing me from choosing it | 14:15 |
| cfhowlett | JunkHunk, false. | 14:15 |
| MonkeyDust | eonbluez ruby sits in "main" | 14:16 |
| cfhowlett | JunkHunk, once you have more than a single kernel, the old kernel is retained is the grub boot options. just won't be the default option. | 14:16 |
| MonkeyDust | !info ruby | 14:16 |
| ubottu | ruby (source: ruby-defaults): Interpreter of object-oriented scripting language Ruby (default version). In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.1.0.0~ubuntu3 (utopic), package size 5 kB, installed size 46 kB | 14:16 |
| JunkHunk | cfhowlett, I am using kubuntu and there are only two to choose from | 14:16 |
| eonbluez | MonkeyDust: yeah but I want to search for a specific version | 14:16 |
| eonbluez | in third party repos | 14:16 |
| eonbluez | the main repo doesnt have the version I need | 14:16 |
| cfhowlett | JunkHunk, unless you deleted it, it's still there. | 14:16 |
| MonkeyDust | eonbluez i guess you'd need an external .deb or a ppa, then | 14:16 |
| JunkHunk | cfhowlett I am already using an outdated kernel | 14:17 |
| eonbluez | yeah, i was looking for a way to search those third parties | 14:17 |
| eonbluez | like a search engine for ppas or something | 14:17 |
| g105b | Hi guys, I want to use Mutt, and want to pin it to the Unity Launcher, but how do I do this without affecting other terminal windows that are open? | 14:17 |
| MonkeyDust | eonbluez any search engine can find it | 14:17 |

| JunkHunk | cfhowlett anyway how do I set a particular kernel as default and is it bad to do it? | 14:18 |
| cfhowlett | 1JunkHunk, bad? no. just not necessary. but if you insist, edit your grub so that your preferred kernel is the first listed option. | 14:19 |

The issue that I am running into is that the virtualized HBA's WWN begins with the character "C", and targetcli keeps rejecting it as an invalid WWN (if I change the "C" at the beginning to a "2", it will allow it.) Any ideas on what can be done to get targetcli to accept this WWN? | 14:53 |

| OerHeks | hivearts, for 14.04 lts > http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/14.04/release/ | 15:57 |
| MonkeyDust | hivearts consider using vagrant, it has plenty prepared virtualbox images http://www.vagrantbox.es/ | 15:57 |
| kamkazedave | i've tried SUSPEND_MODULES="b43 bcma" and when i do sudo modprobe wl it comes up saying it's a bad line | 15:58 |
| hivearts | i want to run dokku as my backup production server | 15:58 |
| hivearts | shouold i can trust vagrant? | 15:58 |
| MonkeyDust | hivearts it's a simple way to load virtualbox machines | 15:59 |
| hivearts | yes, but is it stable and machine hard restart safety? | 15:59 |
| MonkeyDust | hivearts the question is, if virtualbox is stable | 16:00 |
| MonkeyDust | hivearts vagrant is simply a terminal command | 16:00 |
| hivearts | so is virtualbox stable as qemu? | 16:00 |
| MonkeyDust | hivearts it would not be qemu | 16:01 |
| === Troy2 is now known as Troy^ | ||
| hivearts | i know | 16:01 |
| hivearts | but compared to qemu | 16:02 |
| MonkeyDust | hivearts but vagrant loads virtulabox in the background, you then ssh to it in the terminal | 16:02 |
| hivearts | i know, i use virtualbox already | 16:02 |
| hivearts | but should i trust to virtualbox as i can trust to qemu? | 16:02 |
| MonkeyDust | hivearts i don't see why not | 16:02 |
| YvesLevier | hivearts: Vbox is stable. Very. But not offering all we are used in Linux. Didnt have time to explore alternatives, but most are telling that this is not the best option. | 16:03 |
| YvesLevier | Problem is that non opened Vbox is better. I hate that! | 16:04 |
| YvesLevier | and dont use | 16:04 |
| MonkeyDust | hivearts do you want to use a gui, or a command line? (server) | 16:05 |
| hivearts | i don't need much options, i just need to have stable VM | 16:05 |

| MonkeyDust | YvesLevier look at the link I just suggested | 16:07 |
| YvesLevier | on it. Thx :) | 16:07 |
| kamkazedave | daftykins: yes | 16:07 |
| daftykins | kamkazedave: so really you're talking about blacklisting :) | 16:08 |
| kamkazedave | daftykins: how would I do that? | 16:08 |
| daftykins | kamkazedave: dunno! plenty of advice online though i'm sure | 16:08 |
| daftykins | it's written in tonnes of guides | 16:08 |
| YvesLevier | Vagrant looks great. Thx again :) | 16:09 |
| kamkazedave | daftykins: would putting it in blacklist.conf be a better idea? | 16:09 |
| kamkazedave | daftykins: putting it in as blacklist b43 bcma? | 16:10 |
| daftykins | kamkazedave: if you want those modules not to load, blacklisting is the way | 16:10 |
| daftykins | kamkazedave: you're asking me questions about how to do something that i just said i don't know how :D | 16:10 |

| Fuchs | yes, that I do know, just can't reproduce that here, but then I am currently not using VPN | 17:24 |
| Fuchs | so I don't know how much that adds to your problem | 17:24 |
| niram | even if i weren't using vpn, there still was no way to see the current config | 17:25 |
| niram | for example, if i connect to the running dnsmasq via dbus and change nameservers | 17:25 |

| Eightynine | http://pastebin.com/y4cCqqMi is this correct? | 17:52 |
| OerHeks | Eightynine, IIRC you had bad font rendering before xubuntu-extra's too, is it worse now? or is this because you installed/removed so many DE's ? | 17:53 |

| Eightynine | What about that pastebin link? | 18:01 |
| OerHeks | Eightynine, what are you trying to remove? | 18:03 |
| OerHeks | that part is missing | 18:03 |
| Eightynine | I typed sudo apt-get autoremove after removing Gnome, MATE and LXDE and got that list. | 18:04 |
| k1l | Eightynine: then you know why it wants to remove that. | 18:05 |
| OerHeks | Eightynine, that would be oke, those packages arent in use then. | 18:05 |
| Eightynine | Thanks, I'll try to confirm that. | 18:05 |
| OerHeks | maybe it breaks your system, i cannot tell, these things occur when adding and removing DE's. but in this situation, autoremove only gives unused packages. | 18:06 |

| OerHeks | kulelu88, then from this page: rfkill list # does it show wwan ? https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Linux-Discussion/x121e-How-to-enable-WWAN-Bluetooth-on-Linux/td-p/668255 | 18:12 |

| stanmcm | Hello! I have a friend asking for my help. He has a web server that has been compromised. It's been sending DoS attacks across the internet. I'm wondering if making a backup of the website's source code and transferring to a new system is the best approach. | 18:16 |
| dsmos | Anyone think it'd be safe to tri boot Niresh and Windows along with Ubuntu? | 18:17 |
| stanmcm | The site is programmed heavily in python. I'm worried that the DoS code could be hidden inside the website's source. Any ideas? | 18:17 |

| splitwire | stanmcm - I think you would run the real posibility that the botnet or whatever it is would be in the source code or at least the www directory someplace | 18:19 |
| splitwire | was there not a backup someplace else? | 18:20 |
| splitwire | prior to the the DoS attacks? | 18:20 |
| k1l | Osmodivs: if you dont need bleeding edge why not use the ubuntu one? | 18:20 |
| ki7mt | stanmcm, best thing to do is shut it down, and do a source code validation, then validate the sever software also. | 18:20 |
| stanmcm | The attacker is a previous dev who became irate. Had root access. Compromised the backups. | 18:20 |

| stanmcm | ki7mt, Access is no longer the problem. Tracking down the code is. The owner took control with the help of their host. | 18:22 |
| ki7mt | stanmcm, Well, in almost all cases, unless the dude is a serious hacker, there's a trail, e.g. log in dates etc, use those dates for the compromise time reference and work backwards from there. | 18:23 |

| Eightynine | After removing those packages my system lost network connection, I can't even open my router's interface. | 18:26 |
| ki7mt | stanmcm, That can be an issue. If the site is mostly Python, then obviously one needs to be Python literate. Off site "secure" incremental backups would have saved you here. | 18:26 |

| ki7mt | stanmcm, Yeah, it's a lesson nobody wants to learn the hard way, but all to often, that is how it goes. | 18:28 |
| Eightynine | Yes, it has web interface. I booted my Windows 7 in order to connect to this channel and ask how to fix that issue. | 18:29 |
| ioria | Eightynine, which issue ? | 18:30 |
| k1l | Eightynine: you installed all desktop packages. so you need to install the stuff you want now manually. like networkmanager and stuff | 18:30 |
| k1l | Eightynine: * you removed | 18:30 |
| Eightynine | I have no internet connection at all. | 18:30 |
| Eightynine | I had the same problem in Salix OS and somehow I launched network connection by typing command in terminal but I don't remember it. Is there any way to do the same in Ubuntu? | 18:31 |
| compdoc | Eightynine, have you added or removed network cards? | 18:31 |
| ioria | Eightynine, i suppose yours hasn't been a regular setup ... | 18:31 |
| comodo_dragon | im using ubuntu 15.04 beta and is awesome and fast too. good job guys | 18:32 |

| k1l | Eightynine: so what is the issue now? you removed all desktop-pakcages that removed their preinstalled stuff like networkmanager too. | 18:32 |
| Eightynine | No, I just removed all packages using apt-get autoremove copied list to pastebin and asked guys here if that was correct and they said that all is correct. I confirmed uninstallation and my system lost connection. | 18:33 |
| k1l | Eightynine: so you are on a very limited minimal version now and you need to choose the packages you want to install. | 18:33 |
| Jeeves_Moss | what is the /dev/ device that the raspberry pi camera module attach to? | 18:33 |
| k1l | Eightynine: no, you wanted to get rid of stuff that uninstalls other stuff that is "not needed" anymore. that is what people here confirmed. | 18:34 |

| k1l | Eightynine: did you check that list? (yes it was in that list) | 18:36 |
| k1l | Eightynine: you want to manually choose the configuration so do it. | 18:36 |
| Eightynine | And how can I fixed that? I'm on ADSL and my router is needed for PC, tablet and smartphone. | 18:37 |
| Eightynine | Fix that. | 18:37 |
| k1l | this is your router? | 18:37 |
| Eightynine | Yes, ADSL modem router. | 18:37 |
| k1l | you installed ubuntu on your router? | 18:37 |
| Eightynine | No, on my PC | 18:37 |
| k1l | so that doesnt relate do ubuntu anyhow | 18:38 |
| Eightynine | We understood that package manager removed networkmanager. How can I connect my system to internet to install it again? | 18:39 |
| k1l | Eightynine: put a lan cable in it? | 18:39 |
| Eightynine | Cable is connected but network doesn't work at all but I can connect to internet only using Windows on that PC or connect smartphone or tablet to that router via Wi-Fi. | 18:40 |

| splitwire | twiler - why don't you just download it through the repo or download the .deb file and install | 19:03 |
| Eightynine | iface command not found. Where can I find ssid? | 19:03 |

| splitwire | twiler: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ubuntuzilla/files/mozilla/apt/pool/main/t/thunderbird-mozilla-build/ | 19:04 |
| ars23 | @Eightynine, maybe a reinstall should help you... in future, I recommend to save the list of software that is proposed by OS for uninstalling... | 19:04 |
| ki7mt | twiler, Why not use the repo version of TBird, it's what I uses, seems to work well. | 19:04 |
| Harry | twiler: simple way to get thunderbird is through the Software Center | 19:05 |
| twiler | OK, thanks a lot guys! | 19:05 |
| Eightynine | Is there any Ubuntu builds with Fluxbox? | 19:05 |
| ki7mt | twiler, And secondly, that is a source tarball, you need to compile it for use, which may not be straight forward. | 19:05 |
| ars23 | twiller from software center is the easy way. if you download the sources from internet you have to compile them... (./configure && make && make install) | 19:06 |
| twiler | Ohh so, that's why there isn't "a file" that can be clicked? | 19:06 |
| ki7mt | +1 | 19:07 |
| Eightynine | No way to repair network on my system? | 19:07 |
| ars23 | yes, that's why... only if you get .deb files, that are packaged software, that can be installed with a double click or dpkg -i name.deb | 19:07 |
| ars23 | eightynine, i understand from the conversation that you uninstalled some software and maybe between that software was network manager or dhcp... | 19:08 |
| Eightynine | And no way to fix it? | 19:08 |
| Harry | twiler: but if you're a new user, I highly recommend sticking to the Software Center and repos for now | 19:08 |
| ars23 | if you don't know what you uninstalled, the simplest way is to reinstall os... | 19:09 |
| ki7mt | ars23, I would not recommend dpkg as it does nto resolve dependencies, gdebi is a much better solution for .deb's or better yet, : sudo apt-get install thunderbird ; would be best. | 19:09 |
| Untitled | hello | 19:09 |
| ars23 | ki7mt i agree with you | 19:09 |
| Eightynine | Thanks for help. Download Xubuntu iso or what? | 19:09 |
| twiler | @Harry: Yes I am a new user, and I will be sticking to the main channels. I only wish I could get openbazaar running well, and I'd be good to go, lol!! | 19:10 |
| ioria | Eightynine, try wtfayd | 19:10 |
| ars23 | what OS you want! ubuntu, xubuntu, lubuntu, kubuntu... the difference between them is the desktop environment | 19:10 |
| Eightynine | I don't like any DE. | 19:11 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, short asnwer, yes yuo cna repair you Network, easily, maybe not. Re: which ISO, whatever you like, but with the main Ubuntu ISO, you can install whichever DE you prefer. | 19:11 |
| yorwos | it seems my system was autologing as account1 and then changed to autologin2 which can explain why my boot times were raised ! | 19:11 |
| ki7mt | .. you can repair .. | 19:11 |
| yorwos | i remover both lines to work properly | 19:11 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, IN the case of "no DE", install the ubuntu server then, go from there. | 19:12 |
| ars23 | ki7mt i saw your answer, but for example if you install lubuntu on your machine, you can after that migrate to kde or xfce... right? | 19:12 |
| ioria | i tried gnome with lubuntu | 19:13 |
| ki7mt | ars23, Yes, I believe all the DE's are availble in all the distro's, however, depending on what you use as the base ISO will determine the default DE installation ; e.g. Kubuntu ya get KDE DE, Lubuntu you get LXDE etc. | 19:14 |
| ioria | i think xfce4 io ok too... kde i'm not sure | 19:14 |
| ars23 | yes, that's true... | 19:14 |
| ki7mt | That would be Xubuntu them | 19:14 |
| splitwire | I have used Ubuntu as the base and used many different DE | 19:14 |
| splitwire | some work better than others but I'm sure the issues I had were either hardware related or I did not properly install all the depend. | 19:15 |
| ars23 | ioria, as I know, kde needs some resources... it's a nice DE... lightweight are xfce and lxde... | 19:15 |
| ioria | sure | 19:15 |
| k1l | splitwire: yes, that is fine if you know what you are doing. but just deleting stuff and wondering why nothing works is not going to work. like we saw. | 19:15 |
| ki7mt | yeah shat he said ^^ not a good idea for long term use | 19:16 |
| ki7mt | .. what | 19:16 |
| ars23 | question: pppoe gives me "could not find concentrator on eth0". did someone know something about this error? one week ago it worked perfectly but now it doesn't | 19:17 |
| ki7mt | This is a nice overview of the 8 primary DE's: http://www.howtogeek.com/163154/linux-users-have-a-choice-8-linux-desktop-environments/ | 19:17 |
| Eightynine | Which Ubuntu build is most stable? | 19:19 |
| genii | !lts | 19:19 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) | 19:19 |
| k1l | Eightynine: they are all the same base. its just the preinstalled desktop with their prefered software. | 19:19 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, The back end is all the same, but the primary DE's are all heavily tested for each release. | 19:19 |
| splitwire | k11, I did a lot of the DE stuff in a VM so I could just set it back; it was back when I distro-hopped a lot so I used VMs a lot. | 19:19 |
| genii | Eightynine: Trusty Tahr | 19:20 |
| k1l | splitwire: yes, that sounds like a good testing setup. | 19:21 |
| ki7mt | One world of caution, if your a python3-numpy developer, the Cinnamon DE installs python-numpy ( Py2.7 version), you'll need to be careful there. | 19:21 |
| ki7mt | ... word .. | 19:21 |
| Eightynine | LXDE is buggy, XFCE is unusable, MATE is slow on my system, Gnome is crap, KDE is huge and confusing. | 19:21 |
| MonkeyDust | and Eightynine doesnt like anything | 19:21 |
| faust | Eightynine: bash is the way | 19:21 |
| pavlos | Eightynine, CLI | 19:22 |
| Eightynine | I tired of being distro and DE hopper and system killer. | 19:22 |
| k1l | Eightynine: its again your rantings? please do a blog | 19:22 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, I QA Test Lubuntu ISO installs, to say it's buggy is not really accurate. | 19:22 |
| ars23 | eightynine: who needs DE? just a basic one and the holly terminal | 19:22 |
| MonkeyDust | Eightynine nobody forces you to distrohop | 19:22 |
| Eightynine | I don't blame you. | 19:22 |
| k1l | Eightynine: if you have specific issues come here and people will help fix them. but you just keep on ranting and blindly deleteing stuff that makes everything worse | 19:22 |
| splitwire | the more I use linux the more I like being in the CLI | 19:22 |
| ars23 | me to splitwire... | 19:23 |
| ki7mt | CLI rules !! :-) | 19:23 |
| Eightynine | Yes, I agree with you. Some tools are either slow or buggy or something else. | 19:23 |
| k1l | Eightynine: last time now: stop it! | 19:23 |
| splitwire | plus it's just cool to throw open a terminal and do your work | 19:23 |
| dust | Eightynine, whats buggy at lxde? | 19:24 |
| ars23 | or why gnome is a crap? | 19:24 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, You have more than ample chose for a Linux distros, if your unhappy with one, there's Hundreds to choose from. | 19:24 |
| MonkeyDust | dust he doesnt want to be helped, just want to rant | 19:24 |
| k1l | he doesnt know. he deletese stuff and wonders that nothing works anymore. so please lets stick to actual ubuntu support issues in here | 19:24 |
| dust | well i agree that gnome is crap as u cant even position the taskbar as u want | 19:25 |
| ki7mt | You can, to a degree | 19:25 |
| Eightynine | First time I used Lubuntu I didn't like it's look and feel. LXDE has a bug in it's panel which causes artefacts or wallpaper disappears from desktop and installs like a background in panel. LXDE works worst in Fedora but speaking about LXDE in Ubuntu, maybe that's because of conflicts in DE. | 19:26 |
| hit | Hello, I've buy a ssd hard drive to install on an old laptop model Packard bell MZ35. However I cannot install lubuntu on it, it stucks and keep repeiting the same messages: http://pastebin.com/J71UhuBi I've test the hard drive on my desktop and works perfect but I cant make it on the laptop. How can I fix it? | 19:26 |
| ioria | long live Torvalds | 19:26 |
| ki7mt | Without all the variants, Linux would be just another version of Windows OS, that's one of the many things that make Linux such a great OS, the diversity. | 19:27 |
| Jordan_U | hit: It may be a problem with your SATA cables / controller in the laptop. Does another drive work in the same slot in that laptop? | 19:28 |
| dust | Eightynine, try lubuntu... lxde works fine there without the problems u mentioned | 19:28 |
| hit | Jordan_U: yes, the old drive works fine but is not ssd | 19:28 |
| ki7mt | For the purist, Linux is just the Kernel, the rest is GNU/Linux ;-) | 19:28 |
| Eightynine | What I like about LXDE is that it's compact and has pretty good programms. XFCE has totally unusable file manager and a bit bloated. | 19:28 |
| Eightynine | dust | 19:29 |
| Eightynine | dust is it looks modern? | 19:29 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, Then install Lubuntu if that is what you like. | 19:29 |
| dust | use xfe or spacefm as filemanager... both are double pane style... so for poweruser.... if u prefer terminal use mc | 19:29 |
| Eightynine | I like SpaceFM. | 19:30 |
| dust | form follows function... the look is how u make it look | 19:30 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, here ya go, it's bit dates, but if you wnat to change the FM, a few more options: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/06/daily-5-5-alternative-file-managers | 19:31 |
| ki7mt | .. it's a bit dated .. | 19:31 |
| dust | and a piece of shit in the best looking environment is still a piece of shit... | 19:31 |
| Eightynine | I'm watching Lubuntu review maybe I'll like it this time. | 19:32 |
| dust | it depends what u want | 19:32 |
| === CyberJacob is now known as zz_CyberJacob | ||
| Eightynine | Seems like it changed since I used it first time. | 19:32 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, Lubuntu is about to become LXQT .. a QT DE, based on RazorQT .. it's going to be nice. | 19:33 |
| dust | when did u use it? | 19:33 |
| Eightynine | I think it was 10.10 or 12.04 | 19:33 |
| ars23 | in 10.10 i loved mate... i think that was the DE... | 19:34 |
| dust | well that worked good as i used that in past too... but have a look at an actual lubuntu if u like a lightweight ubuntu | 19:34 |
| ki7mt | Mate is nice, if you like the Gnome2 style DE .. I just don't care for Green :-) | 19:35 |
| genii | Learn the command line and then it doesn't matter what DE you use | 19:35 |
| dust | if u like lxqt u can also try siduction... debian sid as rolling distro | 19:36 |
| ars23 | yes, gnome2 i think is quite ok, gnome3... not on my taste... | 19:36 |
| === zz_CyberJacob is now known as CyberJacob | ||
| dust | genii, command line and de cant be compared... its for totally different things and users | 19:37 |
| Eightynine | I don't trust to some distros. Had problems installing Crunchbang for example. | 19:37 |
| Eightynine | When they change LXDE to LXQT in Lubuntu? | 19:38 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, DO you have a support question ? if not, should probably take this to #ubuntu-offtopic .. not being rude, just say'en | 19:38 |
| dust | best u ask that in #lubuntu | 19:39 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, Have a brows of the release notes: http://lubuntu.net/blog | 19:39 |
| ars23 | guys, just asking! know some software to configure a dsl connection from command line? but not pppoe... it seems that it gives segfault on my machine... | 19:40 |
| Eightynine | My questions are what DE to choose and can I repair my system. How can I install system to make it work with BIOS and UEFI? | 19:40 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, we cannot choose for you | 19:40 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, in particular, 15.04: Beta 1 Highlights LXQt is still in development, so Vivid Vervet is another bug fix release. | 19:40 |
| ioria | ffmpeg is coming back with vivid i heard | 19:41 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, for an easy fix, your system is way beyond that point | 19:41 |
| dust | Eightynine, best u download several and try it in vbox | 19:41 |
| ki7mt | Eightynine, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 19:41 |
| k1l | Eightynine: either read and learn a lot or reduce your amount of demands | 19:42 |
| bazhang | !info ffmpeg vivid | 19:42 |
| ubottu | ffmpeg (source: ffmpeg): Tools for transcoding, streaming and playing of multimedia files. In component universe, is optional. Version 7:2.5.4-1 (vivid), package size 1144 kB, installed size 1750 kB | 19:42 |
| ioria | yeah | 19:42 |
| bazhang | ioria, smplayer with mpv backing will do most all of that with ease as well | 19:42 |
| imbezol | isn't avconv the replacement? | 19:43 |
| bazhang | not to mention avconv | 19:43 |
| ioria | bazhang, i'll try, thanx | 19:43 |
| bazhang | libav-tools that is | 19:43 |
| imbezol | a lot of how-to documentation is for ffmpeg though, not avconv | 19:43 |
| bazhang | yep | 19:43 |
| k1l | iirc they found a way to handle libav-tools and ffmpeg in debian now. so ubuntu can ship both too | 19:44 |
| imbezol | that said, ffmpeg is easy enough to install in any release | 19:44 |
| bazhang | and of course handbrake | 19:44 |
| k1l | libavtools works with most howtos for ffmpeg anyway | 19:44 |
| ki7mt | imbezol, may be relevant: https://libav.org/avconv.html | 19:44 |
| imbezol | the switches are quite different | 19:44 |
| bazhang | not too steep a curve though | 19:45 |
| dreamon | using ubuntu 14.10 cinnamon, how can i change background lamp intensity from notebook.? keys dont work | 19:47 |
| Eightynine | Why it was removed? | 19:49 |
| Eightynine | Seems like Lubuntu became much better. I'll try it. Is there any way to install Ubuntu on SSD and after replacing PC just connect it to new motherboard with UEFI? Will it work? | 19:49 |
| Jordan_U | Eightynine: UEFI changes things a little with regard to installing to removable devices. If you want a drive to be bootable on any machine you plug it into you need to run "sudo grub-install --removable". Also, if you have proprietary drivers installed they can often make moving from one machine to another problematic, but you can just remove all proprietary drivers before changing to the new machine. | 19:50 |
| Eightynine | Thanks. | 19:52 |
| pgunnars | how come i cant execute executables that are in PATH env? | 19:53 |
| ars23 | open a terminal and type theyr name... | 19:53 |
| k1l | pgunnars: are the files itselv +x? | 19:53 |
| pgunnars | thats the cant part of the question bruv | 19:53 |
| k1l | did you relogin to get the path loaded? | 19:53 |
| pgunnars | just listed path | 19:53 |
| ki7mt | pgunnars, can you give us an example of what not running? | 19:53 |
| Eightynine | 14.04.2 is the latest version? | 19:54 |
| ki7mt | es | 19:54 |
| pgunnars | uhhhhhh, just by listing env variables, it works now, watttttttttttttt | 19:54 |
| ki7mt | Yes | 19:54 |
| pgunnars | nope, nvm, repeatedly making a typo, well played | 19:55 |
| Eightynine | Will Ctrl-Shift work good in Lubuntu? | 19:57 |
| Apachez | http://www.nasa.tv/ T minus 13min and counting.... spacex... | 19:58 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, to do what | 19:58 |
| bazhang | Apachez, wrong channel for that | 19:58 |
| Eightynine | To switch keyboard layout. | 19:58 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, what have you tried so far | 19:59 |
| Eightynine | I'm downloading image. | 19:59 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, you wish to know commands before even installing? | 19:59 |
| Olanzapin | Hello! I have som trubble on ubuntu 14.04. I have been messing with compiz. My problem is that i cant get the water effect to work. I have tryed the super+ctrl but nothing happens. | 20:00 |
| === thomas_ is now known as Guest57575 | ||
| EriC^ | Olanzapin: it's super + f9 or something | 20:00 |
| Olanzapin | does not work | 20:01 |
| Eightynine | Yes. I'm usually using Ctrl-Shift to change layout and I found information that only Super and Spacebar or Caps Lock works. | 20:01 |
| bazhang | Eightynine, please get an install first, then we can help you with any issues you may have | 20:01 |
| Olanzapin | HAVE INSTALLED IT | 20:02 |
| arcsky | what do you guys recommend ansible or puppet or chef? | 20:02 |
| Olanzapin | opps | 20:02 |
| === leonardo is now known as odranoel | ||
| ki7mt | arcsky, there's a couple sites that do a comparison that I found: [ http://www.infoworld.com/article/2609482/data-center/data-center-review-puppet-vs-chef-vs-ansible-vs-salt.html ] and [https://devopsu.com/books/taste-test-puppet-chef-salt-stack-ansible.html] I don't have direct exposure to all to suggest one over another. | 20:05 |
| Kb52 | Does anyone know of an irc channel to discuss xscreensaver? | 20:06 |
| rypervenche | Kb52: ##linux maybe? Depends on what the question is. | 20:07 |
| === blubberbop is now known as phoenixz | ||
| ki7mt | Kb52, also, maybe: #xorg and #xorg-devel maybe even #intel-gfx if appropriate, but as rypervenche said, depends on the issue I suppose. | 20:09 |
| wafflej0ck | arcsky, haven't used any of them so don't have an opinion but I have used Vagrant, what's the extra benefit of those three? | 20:09 |
| wafflej0ck | oh sorry didn't see ki7mt response there | 20:10 |
| Kb52 | Well then the question is simply, does anyone have a list of the screensavers that are unstable in xscreensaver? Example, if I pick PacMan it sometimes crashes, and Ubuntu wants to submit error reports. Or is it a sign I need to reload the package? | 20:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Kb52: why not just turn the screen off. Power saver... | 20:11 |
| Kb52 | Yes I already disabled it. | 20:11 |
| Kb52 | Its more about having to deal with 200 of them and to determine which ones are crashing and which ones are not, and just to want to remove all the ones. How do you remove individual xscreensaver modules? | 20:12 |
| Kb52 | I am sure eventually JWZ will take them out of the distro, and/or improve the configuration program to have built in add/remove functions. But for now, its to have to manually remove the ones you dont want, and how to add in the ones you do. | 20:14 |
| wafflej0ck | arcsky, yeah so read through that article, seems all of these are more geared towards ongoing management of lots of servers, Vagrant is just to help setup virtual machines basically but might still be of interest I use it for setting up temporary development servers that are a close match to our real deployment environment | 20:15 |
| Olanzapin | Anyone got Steam to install on Ubuntu 14.04 64Bit? | 20:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Olanzapin: I'd imagine many | 20:16 |
| Kb52 | Beyond this dumb issue it is all good, and everything else is running silky smooth. I am learning what GUI stuff is out there to make Ubuntu easier, and what to avoid to keep it running stable. | 20:16 |
| Olanzapin | misssing some 32 libs | 20:16 |
| wafflej0ck | Olanzapin, yup works fine here | 20:16 |
| ki7mt | Olanzapin, you need to add i386 arch's I believe. | 20:17 |
| Olanzapin | hmm 64bit? | 20:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Olanzapin: hmm yes Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit steam install: http://youtu.be/bRS6doHshwc | 20:17 |
| Kb52 | I had Steam but beyond a few very old games, nothing on it was of much value to me. For the windows games I want to play, I use VirtualBox and Windows XP. Its easier. | 20:17 |
| wafflej0ck | yup 64bit OS don't really recall doing anything special honestly | 20:17 |
| wafflej0ck | there's a good chunk of stuff on there now | 20:18 |
| wafflej0ck | was playing BioShock infinite last night, the finally released that port, it's good from what I can tell | 20:18 |
| Kb52 | Yeah but you need the original software to play many things on Steam, so in the Windows world it makes sense but not much in the Linux world. The one nice game I did find for Linux I gave up on. | 20:19 |
| ki7mt | Olanzapin, Just found this also: http://linuxg.net/steam-for-linux-finally-made-64-bit-system-compatible/ | 20:19 |
| joe__ | hi kim | 20:20 |
| joe__ | hi how do i turn on mf wifi | 20:20 |
| Kb52 | Anyhow does anyone here use xscreensaver and have thoughts on it? | 20:20 |
| ActionParsnip | joe__: what WiFi chip are you using? | 20:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Kb52: I use it but set it to none, lots easier | 20:21 |
| EriC^ | Kb52: the login screen is ugly | 20:23 |
| EriC^ | </thought> | 20:23 |
| EriC^ | i dont use it though | 20:23 |
| Kb52 | joe__ Some notebooks have a slide switch, others a FN key combination, some have special buttons that turn it on and off, with an indicator. | 20:23 |
| zerowaitstate | Kb52: screensavers are a relic from before monitors supported power saving. they're a waste of resources | 20:25 |
| genii | LED screens actually use less juice when they are lit up white than when they are black | 20:26 |
| zerowaitstate | yeah, and they use even less when they are not lit at all | 20:26 |
| Eightynine | Modern monitors use not much energy. Even IPS. | 20:27 |
| Kb52 | no its not power management. Screensaver is just eye candy. But I want all the eye candy. Compiz is the other eye candy. xscreensaver is the best one of the 3 choices. Sorry I like eye candy. | 20:28 |
| Eightynine | Why not replace Compiz with Compton or Compiz developed by Canonical? | 20:29 |
| Kb52 | xscreensaver isnt being used to turn off my monitor, although it can. But Ubuntu already has all that. | 20:29 |
| k1l | Eightynine: that makes no sense. | 20:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Kb52: kwin can do a lot of 3D (waste of resources) eye candy | 20:29 |
| EriC^ | Kb52: did you change the login screen | 20:29 |
| Kb52 | It already has Canonical | 20:29 |
| EriC^ | that screen on fire thing put me off | 20:30 |
| EriC^ | the pacman screensaver was pretty cool, as the analog tv thing | 20:30 |
| EriC^ | and a couple other stuff | 20:30 |
| EriC^ | though gnome-screensaver is really elegant and nice | 20:31 |
| zerowaitstate | screensavers are for when you are away from the computer. If you are away from the computer you aren't looking at it. | 20:31 |

| J6Dof | I've installed Elementary OS on my macbook pro. I tried to disable the keyboard backlight by changing the value in << /sys/class/leds/smc\:\:kbd_backlight/brightness >> but the value is overwritten whenever I restart my laptop. Is there any way to work around this? | 20:31 |
| zerowaitstate | J6Dof: create an init script that sets it on boot | 20:31 |
| ActionParsnip | J6Dof: ElementaryOS isn't supported here | 20:32 |
| EriC^ | J6Dof: put it in a script and ^ | 20:32 |
| EriC^ | as zerowaitstate said | 20:32 |
| ActionParsnip | J6Dof: ask in #elementaryos | 20:32 |
| Kb52 | No I already went thru the list, to disable the ones I think were no good. But I'd like it if they put in a way to remove and install new or different ones. Just like I wish someone would develop a Plymouth Creation tool, and a GUI that actually works for Plymouth. | 20:32 |
| EriC^ | Kb52: can you pick another login screen for when you want to put the password | 20:33 |
| EriC^ | it looks like something from 1998 or so | 20:33 |
| J6Dof | I tried to write an init script too but the permissions are overwritten as well and I really don't want to casually give root permission to a script | 20:33 |
| k1l | !elementary | J6Dof | 20:33 |
| ubottu | J6Dof: Elementary OS is an Ubuntu derivative which is supported in their IRC channel #elementary on irc.freenode.net - http://elementaryos.org/ for more information on this distribution. | 20:33 |
| EriC^ | white box with a screen that has a fire on it like a warning sign | 20:33 |
| ActionParsnip | J6Dof: your distribution isn't supported here or by the Ubuntu community. | 20:34 |
| J6Dof | @ActionParsnip : didn't know they have their own IRC. Will ask there thanks | 20:34 |

| Hkerk | Hello everyone! I was trying to enable hibernate on my laptop in 14.04, I used a command to check if hibernate was enabled, and now when I boot it shows a bunch of console-like stuff | 20:34 |
| Hkerk | Can I make this end forever without finding exactly what I did | 20:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Hkerk: what make and model laptop? | 20:34 |
| Hkerk | i changed a config to enable switch hibernate=no to yes | 20:34 |
| Hkerk | fujitsu ah530 | 20:35 |
| Hkerk | lifebook | 20:35 |
| Hkerk | gfx | 20:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Hkerk: if you boot to root recovery mode, you can undo the change you made. You will need to remount the file system writable | 20:35 |
| Eightynine | Is there any Firefox channel? | 20:36 |
| Hkerk | hmm | 20:36 |
| bazhang | !alis | Eightynine | 20:36 |
| ubottu | Eightynine: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" . For more help or questions relating to alis, please join #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* | 20:36 |
| Hkerk | it's not really a problem | 20:36 |
| Hkerk | it just shows what its doing while booting | 20:36 |
| Hkerk | so i think i will stop editing stuff | 20:36 |
| Hkerk | and let it ride for now | 20:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Hkerk: do you get the login page as normal? | 20:36 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: type grep CMDLINE /etc/default/grub | 20:37 |
| Hkerk | yes | 20:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Hkerk: then who cares..... | 20:37 |
| Hkerk | eric what does that do | 20:37 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: or cat /proc/cmdline | 20:37 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: shows your boot options | 20:37 |
| Hkerk | i was just curious what i did to make it show text while booting | 20:37 |
| john_doe_jr | how do I create a user with a default password through script…basically I do not want to be prompted to create the password | 20:37 |
| Hkerk | hmm let me check | 20:37 |
| Hkerk | also i like guake | 20:37 |
| EriC^ | it should be quiet splash | 20:37 |
| ActionParsnip | john_doe_jr: if you install expect, you can use that to pipe the password into a script for making users. | 20:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Hkerk: guake rocks. Should be default IMHO | 20:38 |
| J6Dof | @EriC^: no help with rc.local either. Before I log in backlight is off. As soon as I log into Gnome it's on again | 20:39 |
| Hkerk | CMDLINE: command not found | 20:39 |
| Hkerk | eric | 20:39 |
| acz32 | ActionParsnip: it would be nice if guake could split, so two terminals drop down instead of one | 20:39 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: type cat /proc/cmdline | 20:39 |
| Kb52 | Is there a way to remove passwords? Not that its what you should do, but it would be cool to be able to not have any passwords ever to use. It CAN be done because Knoppix can and it is based on Ubuntu. | 20:39 |
| Hkerk | i used the other one and it said BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.16.... | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | J6Dof: again, your distribution is off topic here | 20:39 |
| Hkerk | acz it can | 20:39 |
| Bray9082_ | Can someone help me mount a NAS premaritally on ubuntu 14.10 | 20:40 |

| Hkerk | the bottom left button in guake adds a tab | 20:40 |
| EriC^ | J6Dof: you can add that one command to the sudoers file | 20:40 |
| john_doe_jr | ActionParsnip: expect is complicated | 20:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Kb52: knoppix is based on Debian not Ubuntu | 20:40 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: did it say quiet splash at the end | 20:41 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: paste the whole thing | 20:41 |
| Hkerk | no | 20:41 |
| J6Dof | @ActionParsnip: Yes got that. What if someone is willing to help here? I posted the question on #elementaryos but haven't received any reply | 20:41 |
| Hkerk | im on two comps lol | 20:41 |
| ActionParsnip | acz32: guake can have tabs | 20:41 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: ok, type grep CMDLINE /etc/default/grub | 20:41 |
| Hkerk | generic root | 20:41 |
| imbezol | john_doe_jr: man chpasswd | 20:41 |
| Kb52 | Oh well. Its ok cause I made mine a simple password in the install but if I ever want to change it it will force me to a complex one. | 20:41 |
| Hkerk | eric how do i respond to you | 20:42 |
| acz32 | ActionParsnip: i know, but splitting would be a nice feature | 20:42 |
| === jason__ is now known as alphacyber | ||

| imbezol | john_doe_jr: example -- echo johndoe:hisnewpass | chpasswd | 20:42 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: just type it out here | 20:43 |
| Hkerk | EriC^ lol | 20:43 |
| Hkerk | i want to make text green for you | 20:43 |
| ActionParsnip | J6Dof: doesn't mean you are supported here. | 20:43 |
| john_doe_jr | imbezol: I'm being prompted after enter in the adduser command | 20:43 |
| Hkerk | it said : GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= | 20:43 |
| Hkerk | and | 20:43 |
| Hkerk | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" | 20:44 |
| Hkerk | the cmdline part was red | 20:44 |
| EriC^ | nothing after the = ? | 20:44 |
| Hkerk | nope | 20:44 |
| EriC^ | ok, type sudo nano /etc/default/grub | 20:44 |
| imbezol | john_doe_jr: use useradd | 20:44 |
| Hkerk | are you breaking my computer? | 20:44 |
| Kb52 | I tried every old school method for automounting shares, but just went back to using gigolo and it works and you can put into Startup easily, and it well just works, and dont run it in the system tray option, hide it and your all set. | 20:44 |
| EriC^ | and type quiet splash after GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" | 20:44 |
| J6Dof | @EriC^: hmm. That's a good idea. Although it's an ugly fix. thanks | 20:45 |
| MonkeyDust | Kb52 i use gigolo too, nothing wrong with that | 20:45 |
| EriC^ | J6Dof: yeah, i don't know how else you could do it | 20:45 |
| Hkerk | Eric i did that | 20:45 |
| Hkerk | file is blank | 20:45 |
| Hkerk | as far as i can see | 20:46 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: you have to type sudo nano /etc/default/grub | 20:46 |
| J6Dof | @ActionParsnip: So? Does that mean I'm banned from talking to people here? | 20:46 |
| Hkerk | at the top it sayds file: etc/default/grub | 20:46 |
| Hkerk | and gnu nano 2.2.6 at the top left | 20:46 |
| EriC^ | Hkerk: add a / before etc | 20:46 |
| k1l | J6Dof: if you want support in here use ubuntu. dont come here because the other OS doesnt have support. thats it. thanks | 20:46 |
| pavlos | john_doe_jr, after creating a user with useradd, type passwd -d $username and it will blank out the pass for the user. ... man passwd | 20:46 |
| EriC^ | hit ctrl+x to exit | 20:46 |
| Hkerk | derp | 20:46 |
| ActionParsnip | J6Dof: you can talk, just not request support for ElementaryOS | 20:46 |
| Hkerk | haha | 20:47 |
| Hkerk | one step ahead of me | 20:47 |
| J6Dof | @k1l: I asked a question. I didn't "request" any support and if it from someone who is using ubuntu to someone who is another distro I can't see why it is not allowed. Aren't we here to help each other? | 20:48 |
| Hkerk | does cntrl s save it? | 20:49 |
| Hkerk | it says to update grub after | 20:49 |
| EriC^ | yeah type ctrl+o to save | 20:49 |
| k1l | *sigh* | 20:49 |
| EriC^ | then exit and type sudo update-grub | 20:49 |
| ActionParsnip | J6Dof: this is Ubuntu support only. We are maintaining channel policy | 20:50 |
| Hkerk | says file name to write when i control o | 20:50 |
| EriC^ | hit enter | 20:50 |
| ActionParsnip | !derivatives | J6Dof | 20:50 |
| ubottu | J6Dof: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 20:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Funny how it has crunchbang which is dead | 20:51 |

| EriC^ | Hkerk: ok | 20:51 |
| Hkerk | contemplating putting ubuntu on my desktop and windows 10 on my laptop | 20:53 |
| imbezol | bad idea | 20:53 |
| Hkerk | why? | 20:54 |
| imbezol | put ubuntu on both | 20:54 |
| Hkerk | lol | 20:54 |
| Hkerk | meh | 20:54 |
| Hkerk | I just need more hdds | 20:54 |
| Hkerk | or ssds | 20:54 |
| Hkerk | i have two windows licenses and id like the option to use them | 20:54 |
| k1l | Hkerk: you could use dualboot, too. which means installing both on one system and choose in grub which to start | 20:55 |
| bianeve | ciao | 20:55 |
| Hkerk | Tried that | 20:55 |
| bianeve | !list | 20:55 |

| Hkerk | Can I run virtual machines in linux independent of hardware? | 20:56 |
| Hkerk | are there any requirements? | 20:56 |
| imbezol | they'll run better with virt support | 20:56 |
| imbezol | but yes | 20:56 |
| Hkerk | does my 3570k have that | 20:56 |
| Hkerk | z77 mobo | 20:56 |
| imbezol | most likely. if you're in linux you can cat /proc/cpuinfo to see the flags it supports | 20:56 |
| imbezol | then do a little searching on what flags are suggested based on what virtualization software you want to use | 20:57 |
| Hkerk | whoa | 20:57 |

| Hkerk | it's an easier version | 21:00 |
| EriC^ | then you turn into this guy https://xkcd.com/350/ | 21:00 |
| imbezol | it's good for making the transition to linux though if you're new to it | 21:00 |

| Hkerk | shoot i mean mate | 21:03 |
| Hkerk | sorry | 21:03 |
| EriC^ | oh ok | 21:03 |
| k1l | there is no mint de. if you mean mate you can have a version of ubuntu preinstalled | 21:03 |

| Eightynine | I forgot to tell I'm using Windows 7 and Chromium it was late when I learned about Chrome 42. I think I'll install Lubuntu(I'm currently downloading it) and install Chrome 42. | 21:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Eightynine: if you remaster the minimal ISO you can make the OS you want. Smplayer is Qt based so will haul in a tonne of kde deps | 21:09 |

| Eightynine | Sorry, I can't use KiwiIRC | 21:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Eightynine: sure gimme a sec | 21:10 |
| k1l | Eightynine: install a minimal install and install the packages you want. if you cant handle that then run a regular ubuntu flavour and be fine with it | 21:10 |
| Hkerk | what in tarnation ActionParsnip? | 21:11 |
| limpc | ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10823952/ | 21:11 |

| Eightynine | ActionParsnip you rock. It looks pretty good. | 21:15 |
| ActionParsnip | limpc: yeah. Are there any bugs reported? | 21:15 |
| limpc | not that i could find | 21:15 |
| Hkerk | monojin: can i install on normal ubuntu? | 21:15 |
| Hkerk | or its separate distro | 21:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Eightynine: just clean and easy. When the system boots it's just the wallpaper and the pointer | 21:16 |
| Eightynine | I want to have something like this but with panel and keyboard layout indicator. | 21:16 |
| monojin | Hkerk: you can install it in regular ubuntu; if I have it right, MATE is in the official repositories from 15.04 onwards but you'll need PPAs for anything earlier | 21:16 |
| ActionParsnip | !mate | 21:17 |
| monojin | Hkerk: but I recommend the Ubuntu MATE distro since it's what I'm using | 21:17 |
| monojin | ActionParsnip: not official yet ;-) | 21:17 |
| Hkerk | is there anyway to changeto ubuntu mate without erasing data | 21:17 |
| Hkerk | or i have to xfer game of thrones off somehow? | 21:17 |
| Mneuro | Hkerk you can install ubuntu mate desktop and just start using it | 21:18 |

| OerHeks | cool_boy, if not, file a bugreport. | 21:21 |
| cool_boy | ActionParsnip: so is there any possibility two computers in world generate same public key? | 21:22 |
| OerHeks | cool_boy, do it 3 times, there is murphy's law. | 21:22 |
| ActionParsnip | monojin: where did you read that it's not official? | 21:22 |
| cool_boy | OerHeks: yeah I got it different | 21:22 |
| ActionParsnip | cool_boy: incredibly slim | 21:22 |
| Eightynine | I should install Lubuntu, change wallpaper to that one which I like, install Chrome and update my system using Software Updater and nothing will break? | 21:22 |
| cool_boy | ActionParsnip: but there is a | 21:23 |

| bazhang | Eightynine, nothing to do with it at all | 21:24 |
| Eightynine | I understood that I couldn't fix it but why it broke? | 21:25 |
| Eightynine | How much time approximately it takes to install Lubuntu? | 21:26 |
| k1l | Eightynine: you removed all desktop packages. so the system thought you dont need all that installed. | 21:26 |
| === gargola_ is now known as gargola | ||
| bazhang | Eightynine, that is entirely dependent on your individual hardware | 21:26 |

| ubuntu042 | can anyone help me with a user/bash related problem | 21:28 |
| Hkerk | I installed mate-desktop but it doesnt show up as an option when i log out | 21:28 |
| cool_boy | does private key always includes public key? | 21:29 |
| Eightynine | I'm writing ISO. Hope all will work good. | 21:29 |
| MonkeyDust | Hkerk i have that too, i guess it's just a meta-package | 21:30 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, Include is a bit misleading, it's a key "pair" so when you generate the secure key there is a public key associated with it. | 21:30 |
| MonkeyDust | Hkerk is that ubuntu 14.04? | 21:30 |
| cluelessperson | Hey guys, what's the best way to make a shell submit text straight to a website by POST? | 21:31 |
| cluelessperson | like cat file.php | pastebinit ? | 21:31 |
| ki7mt | cluelessperson, depends on the web-site ans it's means in which to accept contest. SSH, SCP would be good choices for basic uploads. | 21:32 |
| Hkerk | yeah | 21:32 |
| ki7mt | .. accept content .. . | 21:32 |
| Bl4ckD34Th | hey ubuntu | 21:32 |
| MonkeyDust | Hkerk then you need a ppa for mate, i guess | 21:32 |
| monojin | I've had a lot of trouble with ubuntu 14.04 and HDMI to a TV today. Hard to be specific since it was so inconsistent. For most of the time, I had to crank the resolution down to the lowest possible setting to get anything displayed at all but by the end of the day it was working perfectly at native res for no apparant reason. Also, there were intermittent bouts of serious graphical glitches on the TV | 21:32 |
| Bl4ckD34Th | please make truecrypt as default encryption app in ubuntu | 21:32 |
| k1l | cluelessperson: pastebinit can read files, no need to cat and pipe then | 21:32 |
| Bl4ckD34Th | after truecrypt audition result was: Truecrrypt it is safe | 21:33 |
| acz32 | Bl4ckD34Th: it's also abandoned, so no | 21:33 |
| ActionParsnip | MonkeyDust: it's in the repositories. No need for a PPA | 21:33 |
| Hkerk | ppa is an acronym | 21:33 |
| MonkeyDust | Hkerk but if you're happy with non-LTS's, you can simply wait for 15.04, it has it in the installer | 21:33 |
| cluelessperson | ki7mt, literally all the website needs is a POST containing the data. description, content, lifetime in int hours | 21:33 |
| Hkerk | ythats all ive got | 21:33 |
| k1l | Bl4ckD34Th: file a bug if there isnt one already for that | 21:33 |
| cluelessperson | ki7mt, it REQUIRES just content | 21:33 |
| monojin | is HDMI known to be spotty with TVs these days? | 21:34 |
| MonkeyDust | ActionParsnip i guess that's a meta-package | 21:34 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: just want to understand "When you log in to a computer, the SSH server uses the public key to "lock" messages in a way that can only be "unlocked" by your private key" , I mean how does ssh server know which private key can unlock the message if it has no info regarding private key? | 21:34 |
| ki7mt | cluelessperson, wel, personally, I would use a perl script rather than a bash ot sh script. | 21:34 |
| MonkeyDust | ActionParsnip i tried it too, installed it, but it doesnt appear as DE in the list | 21:34 |
| ActionParsnip | cluelessperson: if you connect a phone to your system you can setup an SMS gateway service | 21:34 |
| cluelessperson | ki7mt, I prefer something I can easily toss up into an apt-get repository | 21:34 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, while similar, that's a different activity, that's file encryption rather than access. | 21:35 |
| ActionParsnip | MonkeyDust: can it be added manually? | 21:35 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: yeah, article says that message can be decrypted only by receivers private key (valid) but how does ssh server know which private key is valid? | 21:36 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, for example to enctypt test.txt, I would do something like: tar cfJ - test.txt | openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -e > test.txt.tar.xz | 21:36 |
| MonkeyDust | ActionParsnip that would be in /usr/share/xsessions/ but it's almost midnight here, so not now | 21:36 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, then to decrypt it, I'd need the private Key. | 21:36 |
| ActionParsnip | cool_boy: the public key knows the system you are coming from and it is in your user's name. | 21:37 |
| ActionParsnip | MonkeyDust: indeed | 21:37 |
| cool_boy | ActionParsnip: so can we say like public key contains some info of private key or only system login? | 21:37 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, then to decrypt, I would use something like: openssl enc -in test.txt.tar.xz -aes-256-cbc -d | tar -xJvf - | 21:38 |
| jpapad | hello is anyone here that speak the greek language? | 21:38 |

| k1l | pancake: #ubuntu-touch | 22:08 |
| pancake | thx | 22:09 |
| cool_boy | how would I be able to connect to server if I disable password authentication and loose key of my laptop accidentally ? | 22:09 |
| k1l | cool_boy: try the recovery system, if your hoster provides it | 22:09 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, save you key pair in a safe location .. always have a backup. I use that encryption I told you earlier to encrypt my pairs on a USB thumb drive and save them in several locations. | 22:10 |
| Guest37121 | How I can enter to chat in spanish language ? I can write a little bit of english ... | 22:11 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, So the sequence is, generate the pairs, test them throughly, make backups, encrypt them, save in safe locations, then disable root log-in with PW's | 22:11 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: and in case of accidental loose I just copy that key pair to same or another system, it should work, right? | 22:12 |

| Guest37121 | Muchas gracias @ubottu | 22:12 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, Your key will be on the server still, all you do is re-add it to the box you lost it on, reinstalled OS or whatever. | 22:13 |
| === digifiv5e is now known as Guest61125 | ||
| ki7mt | cool_boy, So the recover would be, on the system that lost the keys, decrypt the keys, then add them back to the system, then log back into your server. | 22:14 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: fine but if I encrypt key files and keep them in safe location. if someone gets access to them, he is able to decrypt them, right? | 22:14 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: what if I copy key pair on another system (in case I loose system) , will another system having key pair (of old system) copied on it be able to make login ? | 22:16 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, No very easily, use a strong passphrase (letters+numbers Upper and Lower case, maybe some punctuation).. it would take the average hacker years to bust it, if they had the horse power and know how. | 22:16 |
| Hkerk | apparently only password length matters according to intel | 22:17 |
| === Guest61125 is now known as daynaskully | ||
| Hkerk | http://imgur.com/gallery/zFyBtyA | 22:17 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, Re: second system, yes,you can export the keys. I often use the same set for a particular purpose on several boxes. But it is safer to have (1) set per box. | 22:18 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: what if someone gets files compressed like "openssl aes-256-cbc -a -salt -in secrets.txt -out secrets.txt.enc" , what he would need to decrypt the file? | 22:19 |
| cool_boy | on my system it is decrypted simply like "openssl aes-256-cbc -d -a -in secrets.txt.enc -out secrets.txt.new" | 22:20 |
| Hkerk | what are some goods way to make kde not look like its from 2002 | 22:21 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, the only way to decrypt the file is with your strong encryption pass-phrase. | 22:22 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: If I do not supply a passphrase, it would be decrypted simply by that command, right? | 22:23 |
| limpc | hey. im trying to install Apache2. but whenever i use apt-get install apache2, i get a fatal error that mpm_event was not found. I'm NOT selecting apache2-mpm-event. Here's the log: http://pastie.org/10092674 | 22:23 |
| bekks | cool_boy: If that secrets.txt supllies the pass phrase, yes. I suggest NOT storing the password in a file. | 22:23 |
| bekks | cool_boy: But it depends on the use case, though. | 22:24 |
| limpc | zip used to do that. so easy to crack | 22:24 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, Exercise: try it and see the results (both ways, with and without). It's rather pointless to encrypt something without a pass-phrase. | 22:24 |
| bekks | cool_boy: I am doing the same, with a 32bit passphrase, just for making it a bit harder to get some specific files. | 22:24 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: thanks gonna try it | 22:24 |
| cool_boy | bekks: thanks :) | 22:24 |
| hiexpo | hola | 22:28 |
| ki7mt | Hkerk, "apparently only password length matters according to intel" .. indeed, for enc phrases, that may very well be the case. I'm just in the habit of including them as a standard practice. | 22:33 |

| petersaints | hi guys. I have an HP printer. Should I choose the Gutenprint+CUPS driver or the hpcups one? From my understanding the Gutenprint+CUPS version is the open-source unsupported (by HP) version and the hpcups comes from HPLIP, which is the official HP linux drivers project. Which one gives you better results? | 22:39 |

| balleyne | how can I find out which Xorg driver is currently in use on my machine? | 22:52 |
| === CyberJacob is now known as zz_CyberJacob | ||
| kostkon | BBLLCC, "open with Archive Mounter", if you've got such an option | 22:53 |
| Jordan_U | balleyne: Running "glxinfo" and looking at /var/log/Xorg.0.log will both tell you (along with giving you a lot of other information you probably don't want). | 22:54 |
| cool_boy | well on checking ~/.ssh/known_hosts on my laptop I see many entries, what are those keys, I have never added any key in my laptop , how they come there? can I delete them from there or not? | 22:54 |
| balleyne | Jordan_U, thanks | 22:54 |
| kostkon | BBLLCC, or just extract it (i.e. into a folder)and then use that folder as the drive | 22:54 |
| Jordan_U | cool_boy: Every time you ssh into a new host there is a warning that the host is unknown, and then you are asked if you want to add the host to ~/.ssh/known_hosts . | 22:55 |
| Jordan_U | balleyne: You're welcome. | 22:55 |
| BBLLCC | wine config tool wont show hidden files (.wine) | 22:56 |
| BBLLCC | folders I mean | 22:56 |
| BBLLCC | directory | 22:56 |
| BBLLCC | * | 22:56 |
| cool_boy | Jordan_U: hmm, I remember so I have lots of entries now, and what that means. systems having public keys which has been registered in my known_host file can access my system? | 22:56 |
| kostkon | BBLLCC, you don't need to access .wine anyway | 22:56 |
| cool_boy | :S | 22:57 |
| Jordan_U | cool_boy: No, not at all. It just means that you won't get any warnings when you ssh into them again (unless their private key has changed, in which case you'll get a very loud warning that someone might be maliciously pretending to be that server). | 22:58 |
| cool_boy | Jordan_U: aah, I have seen that warning also :) | 22:58 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, I dont know how that's happening, as once the file is encrypted, you should not be able to freely edit the file in plain text. | 22:59 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: yes I can open in vim, it opens encrypted data but I am able to edit that :s | 23:00 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, are you seeing the file in plain text to encrypted text? If plain, that is a problem. | 23:01 |
| cool_boy | it malfunctions file and passphrase doesn't work to decrypt the file | 23:01 |
| Jordan_U | cool_boy: That is completely normal and expected. If you try to decrypt that "modified" file, decryption will fail. What did you expect to happen? | 23:01 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: I am seeing encrypted text but not editable | 23:02 |
| cool_boy | sorry but editable ** | 23:02 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, That the correct behaviour then. | 23:02 |
| ki7mt | That is .. | 23:02 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: so if someone edits the file then I also loose that file, I won't be able to decrypt the file with the password I had supplied | 23:03 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, that is the whole purpose .. if they edit it, it's toast, if they can't decrypt it, it's of no use to them. | 23:03 |
| Jordan_U | cool_boy: Again I ask, what did you expect to happen when you tried to edit the file? | 23:04 |
| cool_boy | and no use of mine as well :P | 23:04 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, Please answer Jordan_U 's question | 23:05 |
| cool_boy | Jordan_U: I was not expecting to be able to edit file without decrypt | 23:05 |
| Jordan_U | cool_boy: What did you think was going to prevent editing the file? | 23:05 |
| cool_boy | Jordan_U: I don't know, ( may be something after encription like password protected) | 23:06 |
| ki7mt | cool_boy, If you want to prevent "access" to the file, that's a whole different ball of wax .. that's a permission setting. | 23:07 |
| Jordan_U | cool_boy: If you have only one copy of your file on a hard drive, and someone zeroes that hard drive, you have lost that file. Encrypting it won't prevent you from losing the file. At another level, if instead of zeroing the drive they melted it with thermite then you would have also lost the file. Encryption has nothing to do with preventing file loss, that's what backups (and to a certain extent, permissions) are for. | 23:07 |
| cool_boy | ki7mt: btw I found it safe, I can make multiple copies and store them at many locations freely. if someone edits I can get content from another | 23:08 |
| TheLemonKing | Hey. | 23:08 |
| cool_boy | Jordan_U: thanks got the point :) | 23:09 |
