[02:43] its ofc on a different subnet. but it just switches to that [02:43] wait, so each program needs to select a different interface? i thought that was setup by networkmanager [02:44] my wired is like 192.168.0.x, and wifi is like 172.something [02:44] wifi is 172.17.89.162 [02:44] but yea on totally different subnets already [02:44] and the static part i keep mentioning? [02:45] static? i dont think the hotel will give me a static ip. plus it would kill my anonymity [02:45] on the wired [02:45] ^ [02:45] thought you said the hotel was wifi? [02:45] jack_: seriously man, 3 times in a row [02:45] its pretty much always 192.168.0.x. at no point are they ever on the same subnet. [02:46] how is the wired getting this IP? are you setting it? is something running a DHCP server? [02:46] jack_: as long as you maintain a persistent connection your dynamic ip will probably not change [02:46] i connect it and it cuts the internet off somehow [02:46] alright you keep ignoring my enquiry, so i can't help you [02:46] and whenever i try to go on like www.google.com after that, it tries to get it from the wired [02:47] look ill do it now and u'll see me get logged out [02:48] you don't have to plug it back in to tell me what is setting the wired IP [02:50] yo [02:50] oh wait i guess that was my old distro [02:50] or still not?

New ubuntu user here! my strange problem: logging into sites (gmail.com, skype.com, namecheap.com, ) is weridly not working on both default firefox and even chromium. I'm fairly experienced with troubleshooting Internet but not sure why this problem is occuring. HTTPS pages fine, but just stalling/not logging into sites themselves. Default Ubuntu (offline) 14.04 LTS install, nothing funky added (yet)! [03:05] It's as if the installer (without internet) possibly didn't include some package/part of SSL/openssl or something... [03:05] ubty: try an update? there may have been some ca updates [03:05] how might I troubleshoot this? [03:06] ok so, have done all apt-get updates and gui 'software updater' updating and then restarting/// [03:06] ca updates, hmm, great thought... [03:06] wonder how to fix that tho! [03:06] wait, wouldn't https not work at all then :? [03:06] https (itself) fine, including curl [03:06] though https://paypal.com not even loading [03:06] #ubuntu [03:07] ^ that rly makes me think indeed it must be some ca issue! [03:07] itsme: use /join, don't say the name and click on it [03:07] and you're already there [03:07] sure. thanks Wug [03:08] ubty: you would think if you had a CA issue, you would be seeing all sorts of warnings using https [03:08] if you visit https://google.com what does the browser say about the certificate? [03:08] well maybe it's just (weirdly), one (or two) particular missing certs...paypal happens to use it, and the login code for various sites (mentioned) also use it...? [03:09] again, vanilla install, just from offline ISO put onto USB [03:09] valid, issued by geotrust ca? [03:09] ok trying that link [03:09] sites use the same cert for everything [03:09] if any part of the site works, the whole thing should [03:09] yeh i know i would think that too [03:09] "oogle Internet Authority G2" [03:10] seems like Google's own cert there [03:10] i got it [03:10] ALSO, I should mention: [03:10] this is the second ubuntu system also having this issue [03:10] by making networkmanager just ignore eth0 and setting eth0 ip manually via ifconfig [03:10] two totally separate pcs, installed the same way [03:10] apparently this was happening because networkmanager was changing routes [03:10] (from separately downloaded LTS ISOs too!

[03:29] Aws? [03:29] invite only channel [03:29] Ahh [03:29] amazon web services [03:30] Can't help you on that [03:30] idk what ur asking lol so i answered both ways >_> [03:30] rrrrr [03:30] I meant what do you mean by aws [03:30] my bash script works when i call it from the python command promt [03:30] but not inside a python program [03:30] I [03:33] I have a physical ubuntu server that i’ve been using for years. I want to transition it to AWS. Anyone know the best way to do so? [03:33] it’s probably a similar answer to the general question of “what’s the best way to duplicate a linux system?” [03:34] well, you would probably be off pretty well installing all of the same software on it from scratch [03:34] just dump a list of packages from the old and install them on the new [03:35] then install any software that's not available in packages, then copy things like user profiles and other data you need saved [03:35] When I boot into ubuntu 15.04 it brings me to a grub command line thing, how can I just boot into ubuntu [03:35] some of the major compoents weren’t installed through apt [03:35] saliak: then download the sources and build them yourself [03:36] making a deep complete copy is probably more trouble than it's worth [03:36] it will carry all of the quirks and accumulated performance issues along with it [03:36] I'm trying to get some important files, is there any way to make ubuntu boot from the grub commandline [03:37] ok.. haha, so i guess that’s the obvious way.. i was more looking for something clever.. like, can you just copy all files over and it’ll clone? [03:38] saliak: how big is the disk [03:38] there answer is sure it's possible, but it's far from practical [03:38] you're probably going to have to beam the disk image out over the internet, which will take a really long time if it's prohibitively huge [03:38] 250G for the main system [03:39] :/ [03:39] that’s true [03:39] AndChat|272729: I haven't answered yet because I'm still thinking [03:39] Ok [03:39] I'm not sure why your livecd would have gone to grub and not just booted automatically [03:39] you sure you're booting from the cd, and not the disk? [03:39] check boot order [03:40] I'm sorry if it seems like I'm in a hurry, I'm just really tired and need to backup my coding, you can just call me captonjamason [03:40] saliak: if you have 10mbits outgoing, it will take about 60 hours to upload, assuming you're otherwise not using the internet at all [03:41] seriously, it's faster to just rebuild it from scratch and copy only the essentials [03:41] yeah, yoiu’re right [03:41] didnt’ consider that [03:41] kk, thanks! [03:41] it will also run better [03:42] and gives you a convenient excuse to upgrade to the newest version, if you're not already using it [03:42] this is all true [03:42] the laptop I'm using is running 13:10 :( [03:42] but i dont care!

I have a USB LIVE disc but I cannot get it to run properly, the initial splash screen is garbled. Can someone please tell me how I can use nomodeset [16:07] Hi, can someone tell me how I can remap brightness keys on asus f202/e ubuntu 14.04 without using the fn key. Thanks! [16:07] ReGiStRaS: It's not on by default. [16:07] Adit right click on on the icon, Make Link -- or in terminal with ln -s [16:09] Can someone please help me? [16:09] lorddune, can you see the little man and keyboard icon ? [16:09] ioria - no [16:10] ioria if I try to F6 and use some of the advanced boot options it doesn't work either [16:10] when i click ctrl my mouse is highled [16:10] i forgot how i enabled it can anyone help [16:10] *highlighted [16:11] ioria so was thinking maybe I could edit the executable file on my LIVE USB ? but I am not sure how....... [16:11] lorddune, f6 is ok... how to do modify the line ? [16:11] lorddune, i don't think so [16:11] lorddune, you cannot edit an executable [16:12] ioria was hoping i could write a bat file with a couple commands [16:12] ioria - i am unclear on how to start an Ubuntu LIVE USB with nomodeset (or any other command) for that matter [16:13] lorddune: hold shift to get grub, press e over the entry and add nomodeset to the line that says linux vmlinux .... quiet splash [16:14] lorddune: add it to the end of the line, and press ctrl+x to boot [16:14] EriC^^ thanks for the help yesterday [16:14] EriC^^: from the LIVE boot USB? [16:14] paultjuh: no problem! [16:14] Eric__ is a pretty good fella, excellent help [16:14] lorddune: yeah [16:15] EriC^^: what do you mean by "press e over the entry"? [16:16] lorddune: press e on the keyboard when the entry is highlighted === Dragnadh_ is now known as Dragnadh [16:16] lorddune: if you get another menu that isn't grub, that says try or install ubuntu you have to press f6 i think and select nomodeset then press try ubuntu === norm is now known as Guest38326 [16:16] wave on mouse pointer on press of ctrl any idea? [16:16] how do i make my whole system gnome? [16:16] EriC^^: which entry should I edit? [16:17] lorddune: the one that's selected by default i think [16:17] ablest1980: as opposed to Unity+GNOME? [16:17] EriC^^: I don't have access to a GRUB you know, right? [16:17] yes [16:17] ablest1980: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop [16:18] lorddune: yeah, you have to hold shift when the pc boots to get grub [16:18] ok [16:18] ty [16:19] EriC^^: My system OS is corrupt. Cannot login. Not even as Root in TTY. So all I am trying to figure out how to do is boot with nomodeset with the LIVE USB 14.04 so I don't have a garbled splashscreen [16:19] eric [16:19] ablest1980: if you want to remove unity sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop , i think you'll still have a bunch of the programs that come with unity though, if you have a problem with that let me know [16:19] E: Invalid operation ubuntu-gnome-desktop [16:20] i think you forgot install [16:20] oh [16:20] lol [16:20] ablest1980: ask ubottu about 'notunity' [16:20] Hello there [16:20] I wonder if anyone here could help me with WINEASIO [16:20] its working [16:21] lorddune: did you try booting recovery mode and dropping to a root shell? [16:21] ty resisio [16:21] EriC^^: yes [16:21] I have managed to install it on my ubuntu-studio 14 , it finally appeared under the ASIO list in both Reaper and Ableton 9, running on play on linux. Both are 32bit. qjackctl seems to be running and returns no errors. [16:21] However when I press play nothing happens, the cursor is not moving (yet the play button turns green( [16:22] EriC^^: yes, and no love there. I have watched the boot process and things are loading. But somehow I cannot login, my password causes an endless loop failure. [16:22] lorddune: ok, try to hold shift to get grub on your install, and press e over your entry, and add the line init=/bin/bash instead of nomodeset and you'll get a root shell [16:22] I want to change my Home directory to a new partition named "/dev/sda11" .... How do i do this? [16:22] lorddune: when you get the shell type mount -o remount,rw / [16:23] EriC^^: but why can't I just do that from the LIVE USB? [16:23] lorddune: you can boot it if you want, add nomodeset at the end of the line [16:24] discovered: edit /etc/fstab and move the files there [16:24] EriC^^: I cannot figure out how! [16:24] lorddune: i told you, hold shift to get grub, press e, add nomodeset at the end of linux vmlinuz ... press ctrl+x [16:24] EriC^^: seriously, not a noob, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to load a command into the LIVE USB menu [16:25] lorddune: press f6 if you get a menu and not grub [16:25] EriC^^: I have as I explained. And anything I try to do in that menu ALSO fails. [16:25] i think it's f6 , it should say at the bottom boot options, press the key and select nomodeset then choose try ubuntu [16:26] lorddune: i'd just boot /bin/bash [16:27] EriC^^: I'm running parted magic right now is there any way to run a command line from a terminal here to force the USB LIVE to boot in nomodeset [16:27] it's probably a pam issue or something fix the file and you should be good [16:27] EriC^^: nomodeset will work. it's an issue I have with my FX card (I built this machine myself) === dearhawk2 is now known as dearhawk [16:28] eric i still have unity when i start my sytem it show purple screen with ubuntu logo unity login and unity wallpaper [16:28] NVidia of course [16:28] lorddune: you could edit grub.cfg i guess, but pressing f6 or holding shift should work.. [16:28] EriC^^: OK thanks I will give it a shot [16:28] ablest1980: yeah, try sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop [16:29] ok [16:31] Question... if i run modinfo and it tells me some driver is at version X, does that necessarely imply the kernel is actually using that version? [16:31] In particular the intel 10gbe network driver, ixgbevf. [16:32] I'm pretty much wondering if there's nay good reason to treboot or that's stupid/unneccessary [16:33] eric still the same [16:34] purple screen when sys starts with ubuntu logo purple screen where i enter my passphrase purple login menu and purple desktop [16:35] oh, you need to select gnome where you login [16:35] next to where your user is, in the upper right corner [16:35] i did it says default [16:35] did you select gnome? [16:35] with unity still listed [16:35] yes [16:35] it doesn't boot to gnome? [16:35] no [16:35] odd [16:35] Hi, how can I change color of tabs of terminal (Iam using numix theme)? I tried this[1] in both ~/.config and /usr/share/themes/Numix but it didnt work [1]:http://askubuntu.com/questions/40332/how-to-make-selected-tab-in-terminal-more-prominent [16:36] after login it had gnome with purple screen [16:36] ablest1980, how did you install gnome? [16:36] how eric told me [16:37] Does anyone know how to turn on slasharguments in Apache2 on 14.04? [16:37] ioria: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop [16:37] and i also tried software center way same === Silenced_v2 is now known as Silenced_v2_afk [16:38] ablest1980: try to reinstall it maybe, sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-gnome-desktop [16:39] or purge and reinstall, maybe it needs to set some config files or something [16:40] how do i purge again [16:40] sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-gnome-desktop [16:40] ok [16:40] Hello everyone - is there a way to refresh upstart so it can see my new service? [16:41] Got disconnected, oops. So, anyone knows how to do it? [16:45] hi guys, anyone is having problems with gtk-window-decorator on compiz in gnome fallback?

Wut do? Should I recursively symlink _all_ of the flat files into a real directory? [16:50] athan: you shuold be able to do cd /path/to/symlink and be in the dir it points to [16:50] EriC^^: I keep getting the "too many symlinks" error :\ [16:51] er - too many levels of symbolic links [16:51] reisio, compiz (decor) - Warn: No default decoration found, placement will not be correct === max_ is now known as Guest16845 [16:52] EriC^^: The syntax I'm trying is `ln -s orig/ /opt/target`, where `cd /opt/target` gives the error [16:52] also, `orig/` is in my cwd :) [16:52] try using absolute paths [16:52] will do! [16:52] thank you EriC^^ [16:53] sure [16:53] Hi, can someone tell me how I can remap brightness keys on asus f202/e ubuntu 14.04 without using the fn key. Thanks! [16:54] prasanity: xbacklight [16:54] EriC^^: Wow, it worked. So `~` is a symlink? Strange :S [16:54] I was able to remap the volume +/- keys earlier today following EriC^^ but unable to figure out the same for the brightness keys [16:55] athan: ~ is short for /home/youruser [16:55] echo $HOME [16:55] what does warty only means? [16:55] reisio: can you please elaborate xbacklight? thanks!

[16:58] angelle_: this is the community ubuntu support. yes [16:58] angelle_: for commercial support ask canonical. [16:58] athan: i think it's cause it was pointing back to itself [16:59] eric same [16:59] EriC^^: oh!! That makes a lot of sense [16:59] it doesn't expand ~ before making the link! [17:00] hello [17:00] athan: you weren't using ~ were you? [17:00] On my Dell Studio 1535, the fans never turn off and are quite loud. I've tried all the usual suspects (i8kutils, lm-sensors and if I remember correctly, fan control). The only result I got was from i8kutils and that just let the laptop overheat. does anyone know how to deal with this? [17:00] athan: ~ is fine to use [17:01] EriC^^: I wasn't... oh [17:01] hm [17:01] ln -s [17:01] so a relative link is just that? It doesn't prepend `pwd`, for instance?

I was having pm-suspend issues on my asus laptop running 14.10, so I switched from nouveau to nvidia driver. pm-suspend now works, and when I close the lid, the led's on the case go off and stay off. However, something still feels like it is running (case stayed warm), and machine was very sluggish to come back from suspend.

[17:30] Eric^^ not sure, if he removes ubuntu-gnome-dektop and just install gnome from synaptic p.m. ? [17:31] i have tried- image is loaded- but not starting up the installer [17:31] Nick_Nuke: when you pick 'try' ? [17:31] From http://paste.ubuntu.com/10998370/, I don't even see the suspend operation at 9:45 (when I closed the case). I opened the case up at 10AM, where it looks like it finished suspending...

Kdenlive is great but nonsense like this makes it lack credibility. Linux Mint can seem to make it work better though [18:17] Christopher-Were: Linux mint on the same machine? [18:17] http://paste.ubuntu.com/10998632/ this [18:17] mcphail yes [18:18] Christopher-Were: and it isn't a simple case of not having accelerated video drivers?

[18:23] mcphail yup [18:23] harrumph [18:23] awal: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes#Updated_Packages [18:24] Christopher-Were: the other culprit could be the handling of the audio codec, I suppose [18:24] stntc0: torbrowser-launcher is in ubuntu repos, otherwise get it from torproject.org [18:24] mcphail Nope. I've checked for that [18:24] stntc0: get from tor direct, need to stay bleeding edge with tor [18:24] awal, 3.13.something [18:25] Christopher-Were: :( [18:25] awktion: according to that package, that's what it does, so potato/potahto [18:25] stntc0, download it from the tor website, it comes in a bundle that you extract into a working directory, then you execute it by running the start-tor script. [18:25] mcphail This has happened in previous version of Ubuntu, this is why I switched to Mint a few years ago [18:26] Christopher-Were: so, before the switch from libavcodec? [18:26] mcphail I don't know [18:27] mcphail TBH video editing on Linux has always disappointed me. It's the one thing keeping me dual booting [18:27] awktion, OerHeks: ok, thanks. [18:28] join ##beaner-central [18:28] Christopher-Were: yes, I know. But I can't see why the Mint experience should be better than Ubuntu here... [18:29] mcphail I think they use a different codec, a better one [18:29] Christopher-Were, avidemux can't do the job ? [18:29] ioria No. It really can't [18:29] So if I install ubuntu 14.04.2 I'll be affected by this bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79261 as I'm with Debian :( [18:29] bugzilla.kernel.org bug 79261 in Video(DRI - Intel) "[snb] [Samsung NP530U3C-A02CL] [drm:ilk_display_irq_handler] *ERROR* Pipe A FIFO underrun" [Normal,Needinfo] [18:30] awal, what makes you think you will be hit by that debian bug? [18:30] awal, read: Kernel Version: 3.16-rc3 [18:31] Christopher-Were, imho, they both are the same to me, just mint adds more things to keep everything user friendly. [18:31] Christopher-Were: my only suggestion is you strip the audio and video from the container and edit from there. Not a great suggestion, of course [18:31] darius93 That's nice and all, but the difference that affect me and quite game changing [18:31] OerHeks: because not only debian is affected, also arch linux, fedora and more gnu/linux distros. Ok I'll check that [18:31] eric everything before login screen is unity after that it gnome [18:32] ablest1980: did it work? [18:32] yes [18:32] you mean, the splash is unity, then gdm then gnome? [18:32] yes [18:33] mcphail Tempted to switch back to Mint in that case. I do a lot of work with AVCHD and re-encoding is very time consuming. [18:33] and passphrase screen is unity too [18:33] Christopher-Were: sometimes pragmatism is the best bet... [18:34] Christopher-Were, a lot may find mint more friendly. I dont use mint, but been considering to switch back to it, but at the same time, it been buggy for me after a longer use of it. [18:35] darius93 I've not really found many bugs in either Ubuntu or Mint as of lte [18:38] ty eric [18:38] Looks like I'll have to make the switch then. Thanks for the help guys.

What next? [19:56] is there an sshd_config setting for this [19:56] VividVervet: type "sudo mount -o remount,rw /" === Sarge123 is now known as Sarge123^off [19:56] Saviq: yeah, the big draw-back right now is that it doesn't provide for conversation like IRC does, so we'd keep IRC anyway [19:57] VividVervet: this will return nothing if it completes successfully, so don't expect to see any output unless something goes wrong [19:57] This is exactly what the ubuntu official help told me [19:57] mhall119, sure, but just sifting through IRC for questions is tricky [19:57] and I have tried that [19:57] Saviq: it might also require specific Google profiles/accounts to use [19:57] VividVervet: ok so do it and tell me what happens [19:57] but we'll look into it [19:57] mhall119, yeah, good for me [19:57] ubuntu-mate: it depends on how many programs you have installed for /usr [19:57] daftykins: Exactly nothing, as should have happened [19:58] ubuntu-mate: /var depends on whether you are running a server or what [19:58] and now, "mount --all"? [19:58] no [19:58] webserver [19:58] VividVervet: so now "nano /etc/fstab" [19:58] daftykins: Oh.. [19:58] I am in a text editor. [19:58] VividVervet: locate the lines you added or edited... and put a # in front of them (on the far left) [19:58] hopefully you added just one at the bottom [19:59] once that is complete, press ctrl+W, then ctrl+X to quit [19:59] EriC^^, i usually just use my notebook to play on steam and some simple tasks [19:59] * ctrl+o VividVervet [19:59] is there any possibility to add luks encryption to an already installed system? [19:59] VividVervet: if you edited something, tell us what, if you added something, then put a # before the line [19:59] oops yep my bad [19:59] EriC^^: ^5 for that catch [20:00] briefchain: you can encrypt your home [20:00] daftykins: ^5 [20:00] VividVervet: so that was ctrl+O then ctrl+X not as i said above [20:00] EriC^^, i normally set / = 50gb /boot = 512mb /home = 200GB and swap = 6 gb (same as memory) [20:00] Done all that. [20:00] xangua: but not the entire drive? [20:00] Yep. Did the nano command again and it has been edited out [20:00] Trying to reboot now [20:01] EriC^^, i would like to use /usr, /usr/local, /tmp, /var [20:01] ubuntu-mate: why? [20:02] EriC^^, these ones and others i never cared about to know what they are for so now i would like to try [20:02] /usr/local is usually pretty empty, it contains the stuff you compiled from source etc. usually [20:02] It worked. Thanks guys. Sorry for not telling you guys exactly what happened [20:02] how does one "install" a service? [20:02] I am running: sudo service tomcat7new start [20:02] VividVervet: want help making the fstab correct? [20:02] and it says: * tomcat7new is not installed [20:02] daftykins: Yes, that would be nice :) [20:02] I already did: sudo update-rc.d tomcat7new defaults 90 [20:03] So, i usually use the 'sudo mount -ro /dev/sda4 /media/Adit/sda4' to mount Windows partition [20:03] VividVervet: "sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /etc/fstab" then link us [20:03] Why isn't Qt Creator 3.4, the latest version, available for Ubuntu? The PPA contains 3.1 for 14.04 [20:03] EriC^^, to keep things organized, and when i format i always keep /home but it brings settings from old system [20:03] DammitJim: dpkg -l | grep tomcat (to see if it's installed and which version) then stop service and delete [20:04] Surendil, I do have tomcat7 installed [20:04] Hi everyone. For some reason, ssh sessions _refuse_ to source my ~/.bashrc. I have even gone so far to run my commands as `ssh foo@bar "source /home/user/.bashrc && runCommand`, but it refuses to add the executables to my PATH. Also, the folders added to my PATH in .bashrc are also absolute. What should I do to investigate this further? [20:04] DammitJim sudo apt-get install tomcat7, then run it as a service [20:04] but I created new instances of it and somehow I need to register them as a service [20:04] I have placed the files in /etc/init.d [20:04] http://www.mycodingpains.com/how-to-install-multiple-instances-of-tomcat-on-a-single-ubuntu-server/ [20:04] that's the tutorial I'm following [20:04] it didn't install... I got an eroor "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" [20:05] DammitJim: i think your essay would've been nicer in a pastebin linked (: [20:05] VividVervet: ah well you can manually paste fstab via http://paste.ubuntu.com [20:05] hi [20:05] hello [20:05] hi meand [20:06] ubuntu-mate: ok, well /usr should be pretty big like 10G or so [20:06] daftykins: The thing is: I just tried to install cowsay and it even get installed. i am not able to install anything now.... [20:06] DammitJim I repeat: sudo apt-get install tomcat7 [20:06] ubuntu-mate: maybe larger, 15-20gb [20:06] VividVervet: one task at a time [20:06] How do I display the version of a package that I want to install? Using apt-cache search nginx will only display "nginx-full - nginx web/proxy server (standard version)" [20:06] i am in a live version whit a usb but it doesn't show the free space [20:06] daftykins: Alright :) [20:06] MonkeyDust, I already have tomcat7 installed [20:06] only 72 mg [20:06] my question is how does one register a new service? [20:07] ubuntu-mate: and make var about 5gb [20:07] for some reason the one I created is not identified by the system [20:07] leonic: "the free space" = what? [20:07] ubuntu-mate: /usr 15-20gb and /var 5gb [20:07] paste.ubuntu.com/10999279/ === toto is now known as Guest85578 [20:07] DammitJim try sudo service tomcat7 start [20:07] ubuntu-mate: for a desktop with lots of apps [20:08] is there a command to clean the ghost space whiot erase o reformat the usb [20:08] VividVervet: eh did you remove the entire line you added instead of comment it out with # ? [20:08] EriC^^, okay i did it what about /tmp? [20:08] leonic: you mean data you already erased? [20:08] daftykins: i decided to delete the entire line... [20:08] daftykins: Actually, I was going one step ahead of what you were telling me to do at that time so, i just did that before you asked me to put a # [20:09] ubuntu-mate: /tmp is deleted when you reboot why make a partition for it [20:09] hi [20:09] EriC^^, didnt know [20:09] no i dont have a DD so i use the live version every day whiout saving or instaling the sistem [20:09] VividVervet: ah. so now we must construct the entry from scratch, sda4 you believe your NTFS partition to be? confirmed with "sudo parted -l" ? [20:09] paste.ubuntu.com/10999293 [20:09] ubuntu-mate: servers need /tmp i guess [20:09] so i gest is ghost data or something like that [20:10] daftykins: I added that line, I think [20:10] VividVervet: yeah that UUID is incorrect [20:10] i'd like to reduce the size of the display font of the directory names and files, i find it a little too big :/ [20:10] EriC^^: Your desktop needs /tmp too [20:10] daftykins: Oh... [20:10] bekks: i know, but he wants to make a separate partition [20:10] daftykins: So, what should I do? [20:10] i've tried Unity Tweak Tool but don't find this font paramater [20:10] EriC^^: Which is possible, but not needed [20:10] EriC^^, what about /srv and /opt? [20:10] VividVervet: type "sudo blkid" and you'll see the correct UUIDs. replace that one with the correct one for sda4 [20:11] bekks: yes [20:11] daftykins: I get that same UUID [20:11] wat [20:11] I've found the answer to my question [20:11] that seems pretty wonky [20:11] DammitJim did you see this https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-apache-tomcat-on-ubuntu-12-04 [20:11] MonkeyDust, I appreciate that you want to help [20:12] paste.ubuntu.com/10999305 [20:12] but like I said... I am using multiple instances of tomcat [20:12] it's not the same [20:12] ubuntu-mate: nevermind those [20:13] EriC^^, when you creat /usr, does /usr/local is inside it? [20:13] VividVervet: alright i don't think you should use either of those. so where is this being mounted? does /media/sda4 exist, or does /media/Adit/sda4 ? [20:13] ubuntu-mate: yeah [20:13] daftykins: Both exist [20:14] EriC^^, why do peopl need to create them separately ? [20:14] in what case i mean [20:14] ubuntu-mate: Because they want to separate them. [20:15] hmm [20:15] VividVervet: pick one and put "/dev/sda4 /media/ ntfs user,defaults 0 2 [20:15] ubuntu-mate: if you have a lot of space you could make /var 10gb if you'd like, it's up to you [20:15] daftykins: Alright [20:15] ubuntu-mate: mine is about 2gb with the cache of packages, and last time i found a 2gb log file i removed, i guess if no logs go out of hand 5 is enough but if you have the space 10gb would be ok too [20:15] does anybody knows how to change de font size on GNOME for desktop and file explorer ? [20:16] -s -de +the [20:16] VividVervet: afterwards, ensure the NTFS volume isn't already mounted by making sure sda4 doesn't appear when you run "df -h" - after the successful saving of /etc/fstab, run "sudo mount -a" and the volume should be mounted, so then "df -h" will show it [20:17] what is the command to chkdis or somenting in ubuntu _ [20:17] daftykins: Alright. Btw, how do you know all these commands? [20:17] leonic: first you have to have the partition unmounted [20:17] years of fiddling [20:17] daftykins: Haha. LOL [20:18] FloKat, unity-tweak > appearance > theme >> default font [20:18] i can't do taht whit gparted [20:18] leonic: why do you want to check them? [20:18] leonic: but your flash drive is FAT... [20:18] OerHeks, already tried, but no change :/ [20:19] OerHeks, i should reboot after that ? [20:19] because i got no change on screen [20:19] EriC^^, my system is going with / =50GB /boot = 512MB /home = 100GB /var = 10GB /usr = 20gb swap = 6GB [20:19] because it only sow 72mg of free space and if y try to open the web browero or anitingh else [20:19] FloKat, maybe you need to logout/login again to take effect, not sure about that. [20:19] ubuntu-mate: How much RAM do you have? [20:19] daftykins: Windows refuses to mount by using sudo mount -a [20:20] bekks, i have 6GB RAM [20:20] the sistem stop [20:20] VividVervet: and what is the error, volume unsafely shutdown? [20:20] OerHeks, ok i'm going to reboot and tell you that :p [20:20] windows also sometimes refuses to mount full disks, but linux does not :p [20:20] daftykins: Yes. Windows does a fast restart by default so, ubuntu does not allow it to mount as read write [20:21] daftykins: It wants to mount it as read only === norm is now known as Guest61941 [20:21] daftykins, yes is fat 32 [20:21] VividVervet: yeah i know - either boot Windows (sounds like 8) and do a true shutdown - or mount read-only [20:21] ubuntu-mate: looks good, you could make / about 20gb easily if you want [20:22] or 10-15gb [20:22] what about the space i still have where can i put it? i still have 69 GB [20:22] daftykins: Mounted as -ro and now, df -h shows /dev/sda4 [20:22] ubuntu-mate: /home [20:22] daftykins: So, should I restart just to make sure? [20:23] EriC^^, so the rest put in /home good [20:24] VividVervet: when it works via 'sudo mount -a' it's fine [20:24] ubuntu-mate: yeah [20:24] ubuntu-mate: you have 6gb ram right? [20:24] EriC^^, yes [20:24] ok, good [20:24] :) [20:24] daftykins: Damn.... I mounted using 'sudo mount -ro' and then rebooted and at TTY again [20:24] :) [20:26] EriC^^, sounds good now i have 209GB for /home [20:26] I think 10GB is more than enough for / partition [20:27] daftykins: I fixed it again and rebooted. Maybe, we should change fstab again [20:27] oh yeah and i am using 10GB for / now zemog EriC^^ [20:27] ubuntu-mate: are you doing ssd + hdd set up? [20:27] i am doing SSD set up [20:27] ubuntu-mate: Do you have a HDD? [20:27] no i dont it is on a notebook zemog === zemog is now known as AR45 [20:28] ubuntu-mate: oh then why partition it? [20:28] ubuntu-mate: another os installed? [20:28] daftykins: Are you there? [20:28] AR45, there is no OS beside [20:29] ubuntu-mate: You'll need to mnt /tmp with at least 10gb if you use streaming apps like popcorntime [20:29] daftykins: Hellooooooo? [20:29] ubuntu-mate: if not 5GB might be more than enough [20:29] ubuntu-mate: How much ram do you have? [20:29] VividVervet: "fixed it" ? [20:30] VividVervet: you know how to edit now, so go to it :> [20:30] AR45, i have 6GB ram [20:30] ok i will create /tmp now [20:30] ubuntu-mate: You can do a swap of 3GB then [20:30] daftykins: After you told me to change fstab, I rebooted. Was at TTY again. Did nano and put a #. [20:30] daftykins: But, the problem is still unsolved [20:30] ubuntu-mate: you need to make the swap a little bigger than the ram, it's recommended that way for hibernation, like 6.2gb or so === michelle is now known as Guest66978 [20:31] so mnt /tmp 10GB /home 50 gb [20:31] ubuntu-mate: if you don't want hibernation then it's not a big deal [20:31] optionally you can also mnt /usr/logs [20:31] EriC^^, oh no problem i never hibernate my notebook :) [20:31] Can anyone please check if books.google.com opens any book right now? I'm getting http500 from more than one place. [20:31] AR45: why should he make a separate /tmp ? how would that be useful? [20:32] In his case a seperate /tmp isn't that usual since everything is being stored on 1 drive [20:33] In fact none of these partitions are usefull since he's installing only ubuntu [20:33] well I guess if something went wrong he could just reinstall his / partition and not affect /home [20:33] well for backing up and recovering they are [20:33] i have a user that can ssh into the shell via pubkey, can i make this user use a password instead? [20:34] AR45, that is why i am thinking of partitioning [20:34] to reuse /home [20:34] ...as all my stuff stays there [20:34] just installed ubuntu 15.04 and it is not capable of restarting or shutting down completely for that matter [20:34] Ya I guess having a /tmp with at a certain side can help manage how big it's allowed to grow [20:35] ubuntu-mate: /var and the rest won't be that useful, you could just save the list of installed apps and keep it in /home [20:35] daftykins: Hellooooo? [20:35] It's not manditory. [20:35] VividVervet: i already told you to shutdown Windows 8 properly so it can be mounted read-write [20:35] ubuntu-mate: unless you don't want to download everything again, then /var would be useful [20:35] what more do you require ? [20:35] I mnt /var/logs /usr/tmp and /tmp on my HDD and / on my SSD. [20:36] EriC^^, so /var is where the things stays not in /home? [20:36] daftykins: But, I want it to be mounted read only every time I login. I came here before. Someone told me to enter the line I had originally done which crashed my PC when I rebooted 1 day later. Then I came here back for help [20:36] hello i am getting this error-VLC does not support the audio or video format "hevc". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this. i am thinking installing libde265 might fix it. so i would like to know how to get libde265 ? [20:37] ubuntu-mate: /var has the cache of .deb files that are packages you downloaded and /usr is where the binaries are installed [20:37] ubuntu-mate: var is a place where files may change often, it's short for variable [20:37] hello is there a command that lets me create the nested directories and file all in one command? [20:37] like: touch directorya/directoryb/files/meetings/2015/attachments/a03-09-15-16153-10897.pdf [20:37] nightfuri maybe winff can convert it to a readable format [20:37] ubuntu-mate: like emails, process id [20:37] ubuntu-mate: your files go in /home , the programs that are installed are in /usr and /var has logs and package cache and other stuff [20:37] or am i stuck with creating with the directories first? [20:38] Hello after upgrading 14.10 to 15.04, my printer stopped working, the printers window shows "Printing service not available. start the service on this computer or connect to other server" Any ideas? [20:38] chriscalip: man touch it, in cp it's --parents [20:38] I cant even see the printers list [20:38] daftykins: Are you going to help me or not? [20:38] ubuntu-mate: http://www.tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/images/FS-layout.png [20:38] EriC^^, AR45 for now i think i will keep all these partitions to learn i will watch them to see what they do so i am going get used and see if i will need next time === gms is now known as Guest96577 [20:39] chriscalip: * man touch [20:39] AR45, very interesting thank you! [20:39] !hier | ubuntu-mate this is handy too [20:39] ubuntu-mate this is handy too: An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview see also: man hier [20:40] ubottu, thanks very much i will study them partitions [20:40] ubuntu-mate: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:40] Eric^^ : touch does not seem to create the non-existent directories if i provide filepath directory and filename [20:40] VividVervet: right so it needs to read user,ro,defaults instead of how it is now. [20:40] daftykins: Alright [20:40] VividVervet: your attitude toward free volunteer help is pretty terrible quite frankly. [20:40] ubottu, lol [20:41] ubuntu-mate: honestly they aren't such a big deal in your case [20:41] daftykins: hahaha! [20:41] daftykins: Hmm.... I thought that you were taking time so you might be Afk. I did not mean to be rude. Sorry [20:41] well no vpn experts here at the moment? then i try another time... [20:41] AR45, im going to install now [20:41] Eric^^ if i use touch directorya/directoryb/files/meetings/2015/attachments/a03-09-15-16153-10897.pdf , this command will fail because the non-existent directories [20:42] VividVervet: and yet it was i who was waiting constantly when you could not describe your issue :) [20:42] Eric^^ would like to figure out if there is a command or an option with touch to automatically create the non-existent directories too [20:42] eric_____ start in #openvpn, maybe they can direct you to convenient support [20:42] thanks [20:42] cu :) [20:42] daftykins: Meesa is sorry. Meesa asks for forgiveness from grand master daftykins [20:42] chriscalip: you could use mkdir -p /path/to/create && touch /path/to/create/something [20:43] uh well "Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services" [20:43] will try another time here, cannot join openvpn, cu :) [20:43] daftykins: Just rebooted. It worked :) Thanks [20:43] AR45, http://picpaste.com/Screenshot-eYQCXgZG.png [20:43] chriscalip: if it's not to be scripted you could type touch < hit alt + . > to get the path and add the filename [20:43] daftykins: Also, I solved the installation problem by purging a package. Thanks [20:43] EriC^^, http://picpaste.com/Screenshot-eYQCXgZG.png [20:43] daftykins: :) [20:43] chriscalip: man touch doesn't seem to have anything about making parent dirs [20:44] eric_____: you could also maybe try on another network, same channel or so, you could search for one say at -> http://irc.netsplit.de/channels/?net=freenode [20:44] Eric^^ , thank you. [20:44] ubuntu-mate: holy shit [20:44] ;) [20:44] AR45 language [20:44] AR45, what is wrong? lol [20:44] Eric^^ yeah i have to make a script.. i think ill be able to do a combo of mkdir -p and touch [20:44] holy deficate* [20:45] ubuntu-mate: why do you have a seperate /var /usr and /boot partition? [20:46] AR45, dont know i am here to learn [20:46] ubuntu-mate: The thing is you are applying what you learn for the wrong reasons in a OCD way [20:46] ubuntu-mate: delete the /boot /usr and /var partition [20:47] /boot makes some sense [20:47] /usr and /var , not much [20:47] increase / to 20GB and then install [20:47] ubuntu-mate: u will be fine stop obsessing [20:48] EriC^^: In what way does a separate /boot/ make sense? [20:48] i wanted to make use of each partition [20:48] I think we shouldn't answer that while ubuntu-mate is here [20:48] He might get some crafty ideas [20:49] ubuntu-mate: alright buddy suit yourself but there's no added benefit to your use case scenario doing so [20:49] haha [20:50] ubuntu-mate: For you, I'd go as far as a seperate /home and /tmp partition [20:50] why /tmp [20:50] Someone started with a seperate /tmp/ ... which is also useless. [20:50] ubuntu-mate: I'd make tmp 5GB and home 50GB and then partion the rest as a /arc0 (archive0) - put whatever you want here [20:51] now everyone is making fun of my partitions [20:51] theres no point in having /tmp [20:51] Jordan_U: i guess it wouldn't be that useful, in case "/" gets destroyed he could still use what's in /boot to check stuff [20:51] ubuntu-mate: yes because they are nonsensical [20:51] ubuntu-mate: even /tmp makes no point in your use case I have to agree [20:51] separate /home is good, everything else is silly [20:51] MonkeyDust: this is what i get Unknown encoder 'libvo_aacenc' [20:52] EriC^^: ahhh, /boot has next to nothing in it... a separte /boot is useful for LUKS encryption/RAID/and the like <- that's about it... [20:53] nightfuri what extension was it? i'm unfamiliar with it [20:53] ubuntu-mate: if you dont know why you should make extra partitions for stuff, you dont need to. that easy. on a desktop a seperate /home is standard. a /boot is only needed on encryption or raid or lvm setups. the rest is just needed for heavy server setups. [20:53] yeah i was thinking along the lines of in the future putting other os's but it's silly too, i guess it's like goto being satan's command and what not [20:53] MonkeyDust: .mkv. vlc couldnt play it [20:53] Jordan_U: [20:54] Are seperate partitions for /etc and the like intended to reserve space for them, or to keep them from getting too big? [20:54] ubuntu-mate: if you do a seperate /home its better for a reinstall or if your user uses all the space for saving data. [20:54] monojin: that's my reason for a /tmp partition to keep it from getting too big [20:54] nightfuri ok, it's hevc I don't know, .mkv is a regular extension... can totem play it? [20:54] I also keep it on my HDD [20:55] and the only reason I decided to do that is because I use popcorn-time and it caches in /tmp [20:55] HD movies very big [20:55] AR45: monojin the new trend is to have /tmp in the ram. (now we have that big ram sizes) [20:55] http://picpaste.com/Screenshot-1-xkEhmBwf.png [20:55] this is how i normally set [20:55] ubuntu-mate: yep, that is better now. [20:55] k1l_: tmp in the ram? [20:56] AR45: Yes. [20:56] MonkeyDust: no [20:56] ubuntu-mate: now gets to installing [20:56] bekks: first time hearing that; how much ram is big 'enough' [20:57] AR45: /tmp data should be gone on next boot anyway. see tmpfs [20:57] nightfuri sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [20:57] AR45: Twice of it ;) [20:57] & until my next boot, 5 months froom now it'll be kept it my swap? [20:58] AR45, ok installing now [20:58] MonkeyDust: whats that [20:58] I have 32GB of RAM, not sure if that's considered big. [20:58] oh sorry, i meant zykotick9 :) [20:58] AR45: Thats considered big ;) [20:58] Jordan_U: [20:58] AR45: that is plenty, yes [20:58] nightfuri it makes more formats readable, also the closed sources ones etc === Guest95213 is now known as g0tcha [20:59] bekks: maybe we should take this convo to #bed ;) [20:59] AR45: i dont know if that works on daily usage with the "i never reboot" guys. but data that is stored in /tmp is data that is not important to keep long anyway [21:00] k1l_: eh fair enough [21:00] AR45: i think swapoff then swapon clears the swap as much as possible i think [21:00] MonkeyDust: got it still doesnt work. does it have libde265 ? [21:00] too much nix mobo jumbo, ought to buy me a book and learn some stuff [21:01] anyways back to reading my eloquent javascript book [21:01] * AR45 waves [21:01] nightfuri not sure, but i wonder why you'd need it, as .mkv is a regular extension [21:02] AR45, why some people say that swap need to have double of my RAM? [21:02] MonkeyDust: i saw it here - http://www.unixmen.com/fix-vlc-not-support-audio-video-format-hevc/ [21:02] ubuntu-mate: why some people say the ocean is blue? [21:02] ubuntu-mate: that is an old saying [21:03] ubuntu-mate: that is back from the days when we had 128MB (MB!!!) ram and when RAM was just a bit faster than the hdds. now we have GB of ram and super fast ram. now we dont want the system to use swap because that slows down the system. [21:03] ubuntu-mate: do u know what swap is? [21:04] ubuntu-mate: so now you need at least 1to1 times swap for doing suspend2disk because the ram gets stored in the swap for the unsuspend [21:04] swap helps RAM also for hibernating [21:04] ubuntu-mate: Hmm, actually no. [21:05] nightfuri try sudo apt-get install libde265-0 [21:05] why are you guys making fun of my weak knowledge? [21:06] ubuntu-mate: no one is making fun. [21:06] I gave my bf a 20GB swap partition (he has 4GB of RAM) because his dad used "zoossy linux" back in the 90s and told me swap had to be four times as big as RAM [21:06] monojin: haha yeah i remember somebody saying that once, he had opensuse right [21:06] monojin: err, 5x? :> [21:07] monojin: like i said: that is back from the old days. today we dont need that "rule of thumb" anymore [21:07] ubuntu-mate: what is it that you would like to accomplish with your computer? [21:07] or rather, while on your computer. [21:07] EriC^^: openSUSE is only nine years old [21:08] * EriC^^ sits in the corner [21:08] * Surendil watches the DRAMA [21:09] And also, I added a swap partition on my laptop post-hoc and it doesn't seem like hibernation is an option anyway [21:09] will consider not creating swap in the future [21:09] AR45, just playing on steam, sometimes i compile cyanogenmod for my devices.. [21:09] got to reboot my notebook now [21:09] monojin: Without swap, you will be unable to suspend to disk. [21:09] from kubuntu, i normally use the usb boot disc creator to make my flash drive a live disc if i want to install kubuntu on a new laptop. if i were to use this tool to put ubuntu server from the iso, will it launch the server installer as a live disc? i have a new box that's going to be built tonight and it's going to have server, but i'm not bothering to install a dvd drive. [21:09] MonkeyDust: E: Unable to locate package libde265-0 [21:10] ubuntu-mate: well then do not bother to concern yourself with matters of the file system [21:10] Does anybody know why Fail2ban rejects banned connections instead of dropping them? [21:11] nightfuri what's the outcome of cat /etc/issue [21:11] Hi, is Ubuntu One still around? === mohammad is now known as Guest66281 === karen is now known as Guest5499 [21:11] hi [21:12] Guest66281: fix your nick [21:12] ok [21:12] karen / Guest5499 depends on what service you are talking about from ubuntu one. [21:13] Hey guys! I have a probleme here with my 14.04 : I always get a message that there isn't enough space left on one of my partitions (0MB left). However, when I fire up gparted, it seems that all partitions still have free space left. The only one with few space is the swap... so, whats going on here? [21:13] ummm a couple of years ago, I had Ubuntu One as a place to store my pics. What is Ubunutu One doing now? [21:13] MonkeyDust: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS \n \l [21:13] RobBurkeOne: type df -h [21:13] I thought they shut down. [21:13] RobBurkeOne: df -h and pastebinit [21:13] karen / Guest5499 the data sync was shut down. but you recieved a mail to rescue your data long ago. [21:14] How do you click the Allow Button in Flash for a webcam [21:14] nightfuri just checked, libde256 doesnt exist in 14.04 [21:14] Is there another way to do that? [21:14] ya umm is it still a storage place? [21:14] karen / Guest5499 no [21:14] oh ok thanks, kil [21:15] whether any body worked with ubunth on android device? [21:15] nevermind, think I found it [21:15] MonkeyDust, nightfuri , it does, libde265 0.9-1ppa1~trusty1 but not libde265-0 [21:15] ? [21:15] Guest66281: are you talking about ubuntu-touch or a regular ubuntu desktop on android devices? [21:16] ubunth desktop [21:16] *someone* has yes [21:16] EriC^^: Surendil: http://pastebin.com/p3Znqf4S [21:16] Guest66281: that would be a question for #ubuntu-arm but keep in mind that the regular destkops are not really touch-friendly [21:17] strange, I have 68 Gigs on my home, and 64 are used. But still it says it is full.. [21:17] karen / Guest5499 see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOne/Status for what ubuntu one actually runs [21:17] yeah i test that on my nexus 7 but not work right [21:19] Guest66281: the arm devices need special handling because we cant install the generic ubuntu.iso on it. so its #ubuntu-arm for that matter [21:19] RobBurkeOne: you have / and /home on %100, there''s the problem [21:20] Surendil: / and /home are the same thing [21:20] i'm using 15.04 on an X1 Carbon, and my cursor is invisible. i've rebooted several times, but it hasn't helped. any ideas? [21:21] OerHeks: should i add any ppa for that ? [21:21] nightfuri i read here, hevc is google chrome specific, right? [21:21] MonkeyDust: i dont know i just download a video file [21:21] nightfuri hevc needs it's own player [21:24] MonkeyDust: what player is that [21:24] nightfuri well hevc player, hevc meaning high end video codec [21:27] nightfuri there's this http://askubuntu.com/questions/362745/how-to-install-h-265-hevc-codec-on-ubuntu-linux [21:29] nightfuri you found some random video file and it turned out to be hevc, or did you get it on purpose? [21:30] MonkeyDust: i got it on purpose. but seeing the .mkv extension i thought it will be fine. and its size was really low so thats why i got it [21:31] MonkeyDust: as they give good quality in small size [21:32] nightfuri yes, you're not the first to struggle with hevc in ubuntu [21:32] plenty howto's and tutorials to make it work [21:34] MonkeyDust: well i did ask how to install libde265 . to find if there is non ppa way [21:36] nightfuri it's there in 15.04 [21:36] could some1 help me write an upstart script? [21:36] !upstart | d4rklit3 i've no idea but his may help [21:36] d4rklit3 i've no idea but his may help: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [21:36] im reading it [21:36] I just dont have enough understanding of the events [21:36] MonkeyDust: oh thank you. no other way so i installed the ppa. and its working [21:36] hello. is there a way to record the streaming of this radio http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio3 with ubuntu? [21:37] I want to run a command after evertyhing else [21:37] nightfuri great [21:37] like after boot completes [21:37] faLUCE: is it legal to do so? [21:37] EriC^^, I don't see why not [21:37] d4rklit3: add it to your startup apps [21:37] this is a virtual server, no gui [21:37] MonkeyDust: the video quality is really great for a small size file [21:38] everything is done through shell [21:38] EriC^^: why not? [21:38] faLUCE: ok, you could try audacity i think [21:38] faLUCE http://www.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/radio3 [21:38] EriC^^: in which way [21:38] it can record whatever is playing on your pc [21:39] EriC^^: thanks [21:39] Hi, I am running Ubuntu 14.04.2 on a laptop alongside Windows 8, also using an external 1080p PC monitor. A few days ago I started it up, and the resolution has been set to 1360x768, and I can't set it higher! xrandr doesn't list any higher, and xdiagnose didn't work. [21:39] faLUCE: no problem [21:40] And I reinstalled Ubuntu 5 minutes ago, and the problem persists. Does anyone have a clue? As a sidenote, when I boot Windows, the resolution is correctly set to 1080. [21:40] Zaitzev_: try xrandr --fb [21:41] How would I search my system recursively for a any files or folders related to mythtv [21:41] EriC^^: Uh, that screwed it up completely [21:41] Zaitzev_: what did you type? [21:41] xrandr --fb 1920x1080 [21:42] EriC^^: just installed audacity... but is there a how-to for doing what I want? I dunno where to start [21:42] ok, so what happened? [21:42] It looked..magnified [21:42] faLUCE: install pavucontrol , it's useful too [21:43] so i have /home/user/script.sh that i need to run after the system has started. anyone shed some ligh on this? [21:43] EriC^^: already installed. should I use jack too? [21:43] EriC^^: Like the top left quarter of the desktop was visible only [21:43] d4rklit3: add it to startup apps, open the dash > startup [21:43] d4rklit3: Do you want to start it at boot, or at login? [21:43] dude, i dont have the gui. [21:43] at boot [21:44] after "started" event [21:44] faLUCE: ok, open audacity and choose what input to use [21:45] maybei should ask soemwhere else [21:45] d4rklit3: Do you want the script to be run as root, or as the user whose home directory it's in? [21:45] EriC^^: where I choose the input to use, in audacity? [21:45] it shouldn't matter [21:45] but for the sake of consistency as the user [21:46] d4rklit3: It does, simply because I question the idea of running a script from a user's home directory as root. [21:46] faLUCE: nevermind, keep it at default, press the record button, then play a mp3, and open pavucontrol [21:46] EriC^^: I found out. Wanna know? (It's stupidly hilarious) [21:47] i meant it shouldn't matter for the script [21:47] d4rklit3: The easiest solution would be to add "su username -c /home/user/script.sh" to /etc/rc.local . [21:47] EriC^^: opened [21:47] it should run either way [21:47] i go to recording > i get audacity, and it says input built-in analog, i click on monitor of build-in analog and it records whatever is playing [21:47] faLUCE: [21:48] Zaitzev_: yeah sure [21:48] EriC^^: The VGA cable had loosened and wasn't properly seated in the monitor. I wiggled it, pushed it in and ran xrandr, it's all good now :p [21:48] ok elts try it [21:48] Who would've thunk [21:48] EriC^^: thanks [21:48] Zaitzev_: cool [21:49] faLUCE: no problem [21:49] !cookie | EriC^^ [21:49] EriC^^: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [21:49] is there a log of this anywhere? [21:49] thanks daftykins :) [21:49] EriC^^: but this is not the best. Because then I have to recompress the recording [21:49] and milk! don't forget that! [21:50] chocolate is the only reserve currency available to helpers. [21:50] Jordan_U, didn't work [21:50] afai can tell [21:50] /whois Zaitzev [21:50] the script starts a server [21:50] ok, that didn't work :p [21:50] web client ftw. [21:50] faLUCE: yeah [21:51] EriC^^: then, I wonder if is there anything better [21:51] faLUCE: you can press on export when it's done > mp3 and options [21:52] EriC^^: this is not good, because it does another compression [21:52] oh [21:52] on an already compressed sound [21:52] d4rklit3: Please pastebin your /etc/rc.local and your script.sh. [21:52] EriC^^: I need something that records the DATA not the sound [21:53] ok i want to simplify it [21:53] d4rklit3: Note that you need to add your new line above the "exit 0" line in /etc/rc.local . [21:53] yeah its above [21:54] EriC^^: in addition, it varies the volume of the recording depending on the volume of the player. too bad [21:54] i jsut want it to run this command Jordan_U http://pastie.org/10174652 [21:54] like i would from the terminal [21:56] * ninncore test [21:56] is startup different than reboot? [21:57] if it reboots does it not start up? [21:58] d4rklit3: /etc/rc.local is run either way. [21:58] ok [21:58] ninncore: I can see your test [21:58] do you see the issue with my command? [21:58] d4rklit3: su - user -c 'forever start -l /var/app-develop/logs/app.log -a --uid develop --sourceDir /var/app-develop/ keystone.js' [21:58] Bray90820, haha thx and sorry [21:59] hello. is there a way to record the streaming of this radio http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio3 ? [21:59] ninncore: I was just confirming that your test worked [22:00] is the file system available at this point [22:03] thanks Jordan_U [22:03] seems to be working [22:05] hed [22:05] hey [22:05] first time on chat [22:05] d4rklit3: You're welcome. [22:05] is this a sexchat? [22:05] i just installed the package called chat [22:06] xchat === ochorocho1 is now known as ochorocho [22:07] I have an old linux raid-1 pair from an old system that I want to add to an existing raid-1 system. Is this -- https://serverfault.com/questions/32709/how-do-i-move-a-linux-software-raid-to-a-new-machine -- good advice on doing so without screwing up existing raid pair or causing inadvertent changes to old raid pair I want to add. (i don't have /etc/mdadm.conf from old system so i don't know ID of the old raid pair). === step21_ is now known as step21 [22:08] why is no one chatting here? [22:09] eg -- feel free to answer my question about Linux Software Raid :-) [22:09] eg: we have #ubuntu-offtopic for chat. this is ubuntu support only [22:09] ah - so as a ubuntu support question - how to I acess non ubuntu topics [22:10] eg: /j #channel [22:10] will try [22:10] man kill [22:10] lol [22:10] k Im outta here before u guys hack me [22:11] npm: how big are the disks [22:11] 500G each [22:11] this isn't really a solution, but if they're small enough, could you image them and experiment? [22:12] i dont know what other storage you have on hand [22:12] I have a 12TB array just for experiments of this sort though :/ [22:12] yeah, i guess i should temp back them up onto that 4TB USB costco disk :-) [22:14] npm: why can't you get the mdadm conf off of the old system? is it on the array? [22:14] if it's a raid 1, you should be able to mount a single disk of it and read all of the files [22:15] so you could do that with the image and recover the mdadm conf [22:15] Hello [22:15] hi locksmith [22:15] I need help [22:15] state the nature of your emergency. [22:15] when I connect to a vpn with openvpn, internet not work [22:15] but no error, everything looks good, event /etc/resolv.conf gets updated with new dns servers [22:15] that would suggest that your vpn is configured incorrectly, or that your endpoint has broken internet settings [22:16] have you verified that the vpn is correctly receiving your traffic? [22:16] Wug: I am connecting to the HideMyAss.com VPN... [22:17] they give me a ton of different VPN servers I can connect to... and none work [22:17] ok, not your own endpoint then [22:17] well I've tried 2 IPs [22:17] Wug, yeah i guess i could mount it readonly and pull the mdadm.conf. [22:17] that would indicate the problem is in your vpn settings [22:17] was worried about the disks mounting normally and getting desync'd [22:17] npm: I would still hesitate to actually mount the disk itself [22:17] imaging it would be safer [22:17] ok I used the openvpn config file provided by HMA... [22:17] read only should be good enough, emphasis on should [22:17] as in mdadm somehow not noticing they're a raid pair with same id (inprobable but...) [22:18] if I pastbin the config file could you look at it? [22:18] how can i emulate alt+f4 shortcut with 1 command? or other way to close active window [22:18] locksmith: to be honest I don't know much about using openvpn, im just good at diagnosing things [22:19] xxxDSSxxx: Ctrl+Q usually works too. [22:19] heres the openvpn config: http://pastebin.com/ms8hxdLg [22:19] i need a command, not other shortcut [22:19] yeah, i think Wug just convinced me to work with the images first. [22:19] im thinking i need to install a packet sniffer to see what goes on.. im on ubuntu [22:19] xxxDSSxxx: Mind if I ask why? [22:19] as all I want is to copy a mysql database anyways. :-) [22:20] locksmith: that paste has a private key in it [22:20] I have no idea what it's for, but that's generally a bad thing [22:20] its public info anyway [22:21] a private public key? [22:21] or rather a public private key? [22:21] i have a remote control connected to my pc, every button runs it's command. so i need that function [22:21] its from https://securenetconnection.com/vpnconfig/openvpn-template.ovpn [22:21] oh goody, i don't need to open up my computer if all I'm doing is imaging a drive... USB drive caddy to the rescue... [22:22] I would like scrollbars that have pageup/pagedown buttons on them. How do I get that in Ubuntu? [22:22] locksmith: you should probably generate your own public and private key and use those [22:23] I.e. I want to be able to click on something that makes the scrollbox page up/down by not more than one screenful. [22:23] xxxDSSxxx: the problem is that you need to make sure that you got focus on the right window. you can try "xdotool key Alt+F4" for that [22:24] locksmith: given that the keypair in that config is what encrypts your traffic, you might as well not bother using the vpn at all if you make it public [22:24] xxxDSSxxx: or wmctrl -c :ACTIVE: [22:25] fantasai: page-up/page-dn? [22:25] those seem to scroll by slightly less than one screenful on my computer [22:25] OK, the problem is I cant connect to anything, cant ping or resolve a IP when using it [22:26] the the reson I am using that VPN is to get a different IP address in a city of my choise [22:26] choice * [22:26] state of my choice aftually [22:27] Wug: That's a keyboard button, not a mouse click. Requires making sure the focus is in that scrollbox already [22:27] im making an app for someone... [22:27] which is hard to do in an email app where clicking into the scrollbox marks something as read :) [22:28] Wug: found a decent answer here http://askubuntu.com/questions/295988/how-to-fix-gtk3-scrollbar-behavior [22:28] what version of ubuntu [22:28] 14.10 [22:29] Wug: 14.04 [22:32] fantasai: you can probably disable click to mark as read, if you have another workflow that works better. also, ubuntu 14.10 should still have the same scrollbars, just hover over them and click the up or down side [22:33] Wug: No, I really want to fix the scrollbars because they're driving me nuts in all my apps [22:33] Wug: The setting there works, but only if I'm logged into Gnome [22:33] i dont know what you mean by fix, because as far as i can tell they work fine [22:33] Wug: If I use some other window manager, it forgets the setting [22:34] the position of the dragger thing is just relative as opposed to absolute [22:34] Lemme explain [22:34] so I have a scrollbar that looks like this [22:34] [---------------------=======] [22:34] If I click on the left side of it [22:34] I want it to look like this [22:34] [--------------=======-------] [22:35] not like this [22:35] [=======---------------------] [22:35] i.e. move by one screenful, not jump to where I clicked [22:35] post a screenshot [22:35] because mine does exactly what you want, and I haven't touched it [22:36] Wug: Then I've no idea :) Mine doesn't for whatever reason [22:36] Wug: screenshot wouldn't help anyway, you'd need a video.... [22:37] I just need to see your scrollbar to make sure it's not a custom theme or some other weird option that changes the default behavior [22:37] It looks light grey with a dark grey oval [22:37] no shading of any kind [22:37] flat colors [22:37] every scrollbar on your system looks like that? [22:38] yes [22:38] thank you, wmctrl works fine. but xdotool closed ALL opened windows and crashed the system, it's like it works not once, bul in loop [22:38] * fantasai reads more about scrollbars and learns that right-clicking does the pageup/pagedown while left-clicking does the warping behavior [22:39] fantasai: so like this? http://i0.wp.com/www.stugon.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/overlay-scrollbars-ubuntu-2.png?resize=574%2C405 [22:39] same concept, but it's flat, not shaded [22:39] It doesn't look 3D [22:39] it's really just a single color [22:39] you disabled overlay scrollbars [22:39] but same shapes [22:39] yes [22:39] turn them back on [22:40] the overlay ones behave exactly like you want [22:40] no, those were terrible, I couldn't even see the scrollbars [22:40] that's because they're not there until you hover over them [22:40] I want the scrollbar to be visible so i can find them [22:40] its probly my iptables as seen in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1660520&page=3 [22:40] you can probably change the color to something more visible [22:40] Yeah, so I have to move my mouse to hover over where they would be, then go find the thing that I can actually click on, which is usually not where my mouse now is but somehwere above or below it [22:41] and it's stupidly inefficient [22:41] the scroller thing teleports to where your mouse is actually [22:41] so wherever you hover, it will be there [22:42] it literally cannot possibly be less efficient that moving your mouse to the non-overlay scrollbar [22:42] does your mouse not have a scroll wheel? [22:42] Wug: no [22:42] maybe you should get a new mouse then [22:43] It's a laptop [22:43] I don't use an external mouse [22:43] touchpad? [22:43] trackpoint [22:43] and scroll wheels have the same focus issues as the keyboard [22:43] or I'd just use the keyboard [22:43] they don't actually, scroll wheel always affects the widget you're mousing over [22:43] oh, well, that's nice [22:43] How would I search my system recursively for a any files or folders related to mythtv [22:43] * fantasai can't take advantage of that though [22:44] fantasai: go to staples and get a $6 bargain bin mouse with a scroll wheel [22:44] It's kindof hard to use a mouse on your lap :) [22:44] But I suppose I could do that for when I have a desk [22:45] I mean, the alternative is to get a new laptop :/ [22:45] I would prefer that there were buttons I could click [22:45] like there were in older versions of the OS [22:45] Wug: Yeah, I need one of those too :) [22:45] I still think you should turn on the overlay scroller and see if it solves your problem [22:46] it teleports to your mouse and addition to being able to scroll by being dragged, includes 2 buttons, one to scroll 1 screen up, and the other 1 down [22:46] this laptop I'm using has a nub mouse and a touchpad [22:47] both are terrible, but I can see why you would complain about mousing efficiency lol [22:54] I h4d a boyfri3nd named "Ubuntu" once. [22:54] He would "pl4y the bongos" on my ass. [22:54] I h4d a boyfri3nd named "Ubuntu" once. [22:55] He would "pl4y the bongos" on my ass. [22:55] I h4d a boyfri3nd named "Ubuntu" once. [22:55] socratic: stop that please [22:55] He would "pl4y the bongos" on my ass. [22:55] I h4d a boyfri3nd named "Ubuntu" once. [22:56] Wug: I think the problem is that the target for making the overlay scroller show up is invisible yet requires precision [22:56] Wug: It probably makes sense if you always maximize your windows, but mine almost always aren't [22:56] i take it that acrobat reader is no longer available for linux? i can't find a download option for linux at adobe anymore [22:57] fantasai: it doesn't require that much precision. there might be an option to make it bigger somewhere too [22:57] i tried evince and okular but the pdf doesn't properly render in it [22:57] the time util reports 3 numbers... is the total time the sum of those or are they different perspectives of the same measurement? [22:58] Wug: I just know it frustrates me greatly [22:58] Wug: Whatever the problem is, it's awkward and annoying for me to use [22:58] * fantasai figures out that killing the settings maanger makes everything ugly, but makes the scrollbar buttons show up :/ [22:58] * fantasai doesn't understand why they're gone in the first place [23:00] ki7rw: Maybe xpdf will work for you ? : apt-cache show xpdf . [23:00] ki7rw: try acroread, then [23:04] reisio, i take it that acrobat reader is no longer available for linux? i can't find a download option for linux at adobe anymore [23:04] !info acroread [23:04] Package acroread does not exist in vivid === michelle is now known as Guest33644 [23:06] ki7rw: sure it is [23:14] Is there an image with kernel 3.2 or up? I need at least 3.2 but can't install it because I am using a live cd [23:14] image of what? [23:14] image of ubuntu [23:15] everything since 12.04 has had 3.2.x + [23:15] 14.04 says 3.16 [23:15] quillford: you need older then 3.2? or newer? because 14.04.2 got 3.16 and 15.04 got 3.19 [23:15] yeah 3.16 > 3.2 [23:15] i am using ubuntu gnome though. Does it not use the same kernel? [23:16] quillford: 3.16 is not 3.1.6. its 16 [23:16] consider the digits after the dot as teens [23:16] k1l: ok thanks === Surendil_ is now known as Surendil [23:17] Hello might anybody be able to assist me? [23:17] not until you state an issue :) [23:17] AlexanderManson: depends on what the issue is [23:18] Hey guys. I messed something up during 6 hour marathon of changing stuff I don't understand. The effect of this is teamfortress2 looking for i965_dri.so in the wrong directory: /usr/lib32/dri/i965_dri.so instead of /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/i965_dri.so [23:18] is there a better way of fixing this than symlinking the correct file to the dir it's searching? [23:19] barnex: given you speak of 6 hours of messing with things, i'd go with occam's razor ;) [23:19] well, I ran ldconfig several times and added a file to ld.so.conf.d [23:20] barnex: /usr/lib32 is no longer used. You could point that entire directory to the other one [23:20] which I then removed and rerun ldconfig [23:20] well, there are files in it though... [23:20] and not only ones I put there after creating that dir [23:20] you sure that's going to be fine? [23:21] barnex: Just in case move the files to the other one first [23:21] ok, that sounds resonable [23:21] thanks [23:21] ( unless they overwrite ) [23:24] genii: ok, so far nothing exploded and the game works, thanks. [23:25] barnex: No problemmo [23:29] Actually something did explode. [23:29] libGL error: dlopen /usr/lib32/dri/i965_dri.so failed (/usr/lib32/dri/i965_dri.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32) [23:29] nah, disregard that [23:36] why does the 14.04 installer inject extra hypens in the /dev/mapper vg and lv names? [23:37] because [23:37] why do you care [23:38] that attitude [23:38] snockerton: It's escaping special characters and such. [23:38] snockerton: If you do things manually, it doesn't do that. [23:39] -_- [23:39] jpds: so you drop to a shell, build your lvm, then proceed with the installer? [23:40] or build your lvm before even starting the installer [23:44] ubuntu sucks dick === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:50] hello [23:50] hey hey [23:50] so as you can tell [23:51] i just installed my first linux distro,latest version of ubuntu desktop [23:51] i like it [23:52] such a good place to start [23:52] yea [23:52] so im curious as to how.. [23:52] to remove the borders [23:52] example [23:52] http://i.4cdn.org/g/1430929214043.png [23:53] and [23:53] as you can see [23:53] http://i.4cdn.org/g/1430952899495.png [23:53] no borders [23:53] fug [23:53] I got no idea dude, someone else should be able to tell you. [23:53] retard_: that is running a total different desktop setup [23:53] oh.-. [23:53] thanks [23:53] you can search for something like 1px wide theme retard_ [23:53] that or not running a window manager [23:53] retard_: that WM (window manager) is named openbox [23:54] they call them window borders [23:54] thanks [23:54] openbox is pretty easy to set up for a new linux user. [23:54] seek ye out your wm theme [23:54] retard_: see in the first image you see the Wm and WM theme name. [23:55] wow [23:55] im fuckng stupid [23:55] sorry [23:55] Hello! I just installed Ubuntu Server 15.04. Is there any good way to have an X server (or the likes, a desktop either way) running, without having it on the local terminal's console? [23:55] no need for swearing or self-insulting :) [23:55] Like a terminal server to just remote desktop into. [23:55] !openbox | retard_ [23:55] retard_: openbox is a lightweight window manager. For instructions and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Openbox [23:56] thank you very much & will check that out right now === Z_ is now known as Guest13040
