[00:21] dmesg | pastebinit [00:23] When i type dmesg it appear too many things to poste that here [00:23] But its appear also the same type of line that pop up in my terminal [00:25] It is possible that is my batery that is death? [00:26] It is true that my battery lost him energie very quikly [00:26] [ 316.622900] mmc0 timeout waiting for hardware interrupt [00:27] no it is not that [00:27] [ 104.849162] hid-generic 0003:045E:0800.0004: input,hiddev0,hidraw3: USB HID v1.11 Device [Microsoft Microsoft\xffffffc2\xffffffae\xffffffae Nano Transceiver v2.0] on usb-0000:00:1d.0-1.3/input2 [00:27] General-Nemo: type 'dmesg | pastebinit' , it will give put the output on pastebin [00:27] General-Nemo: then paste the url to the pastebin here, so we can read the whole thing [00:27] General-Nemo: do not flood the chat with the log here though please :) [00:27] Hi does anyone know how to jailbreak iphone 3g using ubunutu, please send tell [00:28] tax_: /join #iphone [00:28] or ##iphone (¿) [00:28] Ok : http://paste.ubuntu.com/11034252/ [00:28] daftykins: ^^ your pastebin [00:29] ty [00:29] ty i joined [00:29] wow he has a lotta timeout [00:29] starting at 10 seconds [00:30] daftykins: do you have some kind of sdcard plugged in [00:31] oops [00:31] General-Nemo: do you have some kind of sdcard plugged in [00:32] ^ my question too [00:35] im running the nvidia drivers and when my laptop wakes from sleep the graphics are all slow and choppy, anyone know what to check? [00:35] (to fix it I reboot :D) [00:35] tbh i would not use such a mode [00:35] chip model + driver? [00:37] I had a sd card, but when i did research, i sea that this type of line appen also whit a not recognise sd card [00:38] So i unplugthe sd card, but the line pop up again === sleepypc is now known as `hypermist` [00:42] General-Nemo: could be the entire reader [00:45] The sdcard reader ? === AlexStraunoff is now known as Sqt [00:49] should I use zsh? :/ [00:54] GroBalour: if you have to ask, probably not [00:56] Still lookin for help on gettin bluetooth workin. I tried 15.04 ubuntu mate but that actually says no adapter found when I try to run the bluetooth. [00:56] Usin the Live CD [00:58] Greetings! [00:58] I've a teeny tiny problem. LightDM doesn't show wallpaper on system start up. I get a white screen with the log on box [01:04] how does one remove conky [01:04] dpkg -l | grep conky [01:05] then remove the package that matches [01:05] General-Nemo: yes [01:06] and how does one remove it lol sorry im slow when it comes to terminal comands [01:07] might want to put in some bedtime reading on the topic ;) [01:07] sudo apt-get remove [01:07] VFDPrim, remove conky as in stop it, uninstall it, or delete the configuration? [01:07] uninstall [01:07] or remove it from running on startup? [01:07] sudo apt-get purge conky [01:08] purge is overkill, that'll remove configs too [01:08] (best to be aware of the difference) [01:08] rfleming thank you very much sr [01:08] be right back going to restart comp [01:09] ¬_¬ [01:09] Thanks Bill. [01:10] who is Bill? [01:10] Gates [01:10] what makes that childish comment relevant? [01:10] every time you install or uninstall a piece of software, you are required to reboot [01:10] could've been for other reasons [01:10] *sighs* [01:11] just giving that user the benefit of the doubt :) [01:12] why not. [01:13] crap that didnt work i still have a stupid black info box on my screen [01:14] in regards to your comment on remove vs purge... in the case of conky, purge is better as it gets rid of all the ancillary libraries that conky installs, but does not delete ~/.conkyrc [01:14] VFDPrim, did you install anything other than conky? [01:14] rfleming [01:15] nope just conky [01:15] * rfleming isn't an expert on black boxes [01:15] and ok so if i didnt uninstall it how do i do that [01:15] If you have a black box, then you didn't remove conky [01:15] correct [01:16] from a terminal (CTRL-ALT-T), what is the output of which conky [01:16] i was trying to get one of there better looking ones but it did not work so now i want to rid my computer of it all together [01:16] stop conky first, before uninstalling. [01:17] ok i need step by step her please im very novice when it comes to the terminal [01:17] VFDPrim, killall conky [01:17] (from a terminal) [01:17] bash: kill: all: arguments must be process or job IDs [01:17] bash: kill: conky: arguments must be process or job IDs [01:17] one word. killall [01:18] oh ok [01:18] verry good that is done whats next :) [01:18] you want to permanently remove it? [01:18] yes [01:18] sudo apt-get -y purge conky [01:19] 'conky' is not installed, so not removed [01:19] if that was true why did it start up after a restart...? [01:20] do you still have the black box on your desktop? [01:20] This is oke, you uninstalled conky, then stopped the service. [01:20] The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: [01:20] alien at debugedit lib32z1 librpmbuild3 librpmsign1 lsb-core lsb-security m4 [01:20] ncurses-term pax rpm [01:20] Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. [01:20] no black box is gon [01:20] this is basic for linux, stop a service before uninstalling, else the service will run untill you reboot [01:20] Then you're done [01:20] ohh ok so it did not know not to stop it after restart even though it did not exist? [01:20] you can run sudo apt-get autoremove if you wish [01:21] VFDPrim, Congrats! You did it!! [01:21] thank you all very much [01:21] such great help every one is on here [01:22] have fun [01:22] do you all use conky or somthing like it and if so what? i like seeing what my computer is running at (helps for when uploading videos) [01:24] conky and cron, my first 2 lessons in programming [01:25] hey, i am trying to cp a directory to another directory and when i press enter it just tells me that its a directory..?? getting super annoying please help [01:25] yea see i tried using the directions from geeklabs for conky and it just didnt work right or i messed it up some how [01:25] the shell i am using is cp /usr/local/lib/snort_dynamicpreprocessor /usr/cellar/snort/lib [01:26] SVCR3D-SHVD0WS: add -r to your copy (ie. "cp -r foo/ /destination/bar/") [01:26] thankyou [01:27] VFDPrim, 2300+ pages with conky examples http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=281865&page=2310 [01:27] longest topic on ubuntuforum i know of [01:28] Oerheks thanks ill take a look at it [01:28] i just got a whole bunch of "no such file or directory" but i know there is im litterly looking at it in my tmerinal [01:32] i keep getting "no such file or directory" this is such bullshhh [01:33] maybe something like this: cp -R /usr/local/lib/snort_dynamicpreprocessor/* /usr/cellar/snort/lib [01:34] * if snort_dynamicpreprocessor is a folder itself [01:35] good evening all. I have having a really strange issue where I can only get Ubuntu to boot when i force a bad shutdown and select ubunto from the Grub screen. does anyone know why this might be? Ubuntu 15.04 [01:35] thankyou!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [01:35] OerHeks, [01:35] SVCR3D-SHVD0WS have fun [01:37] does anyone have any insight. This is the very first time I have even heard of this issue happening [01:39] eric2, what happens? [01:39] why are you forcing a shutdown? [01:39] (and what do you mean by forcing a shut down? Turning off the computer?) [01:39] If I boot normal from a nice normal shutdown Ubuntu fails to start and the system shuts down. If i force it to enter grub I can get a good boot [01:40] Yes, a bad shut down. Power button reset [01:40] ahh [01:41] what error comes on screen when it boots up nicely (and fails?) [01:41] Nothing, straight from Bios splash to nothing and then power off [01:42] do you happen to have other disks plugged into the machine? [01:42] No [01:42] maybe a usb hard drive, a flash drive or an ssd? [01:42] nope nothing [01:43] so it finishes the bios splash then turns off? [01:44] yes, nothing comes on screen, but something is happening. If I hold the powerbutton as the bios screen disappears and turn it back on ill be booted in to grub [01:48] hi [01:50] I have a process that I don't recognize "Asterisk" can someone explain what it does? can I remove it? [01:50] its a telephony process [01:51] http://www.asterisk.org/ [01:53] apt-get remove asterisk [01:54] eric2: thanks so removing it will not break things [01:54] it might, i dont know why its there. [01:55] eric2: I guess if I break something I will fix it with apt-get install asterisk [01:55] wouldn't life be grand if it ends up being just that simple [01:56] eric2: sudo undo the stupid thing I just did ! [01:56] eric2: I would love if life had a Ctrl +Z [02:01] Kion i think we all would lol [02:02] as long as it didnt shut my life down like it did kden live the other day if i pushed it 3 times in a row [02:04] should my Cupsd process on a laptop be listening on localhost or on a unix socket? [02:06] whats a command like lspci that gives you info about your stuff [02:07] adsjlkdk: anything specific you want? [02:08] no [02:08] adsjlkdk: lshwd [02:08] adsjlkdk: sudo lshw -C ??

I've installed virtualbox but when I select linux, it only let's me choose from 32 bit OS's what have I done wrong? [03:45] jishjish, nothing wrong. test away in 32 bit [03:46] cfhowlett: will that work, I thought you had to select the correct architecture so it would install the right supporting drivers and work. [03:46] jishjish, your cpu doesn't support 4 bit virtualization. doesn't mean it can't run 64 bit native [03:46] jishjish, remember: you are testing a virtual device. VIRTUAL. [03:47] so are you saying ANY given CPU can potentially support A) installing a 64bit OS natively, B) installing a 64 OS virtually, or C (Both physically and Virtually)? [03:47] jishjish, Not sure but I think something has to be enabled in bios to allow 64 bit. Don't know how to myself. [03:48] jishjish, forgive my lack of clarity in advance. the virtual machine IS NOT the same as your actual, physical hardware. it is limited by the capabilities of your cpu and cpu settings. [03:49] jishjish, beyond that, if your goal is to test ubuntu, why not make an ubuntu USB, boot your machine from said USB and test [03:50] jishjish, also: option C from your quiz ...

[04:07] O'clock lol [04:07] depends if they're bright enough to password lock the BIOS and disable USB boot [04:07] morning [04:07] +1 daftykins [04:07] otherwise, free reign [04:07] they won't "know" if the bios isn't locked down [04:07] Oh i see [04:08] S4wiz, when you connect to the internet, the nic will ID your computer OS [04:08] ok [04:09] yes, it will be logged. good point cfhowlett [04:09] not if you spoof your browser agent, nic does not id your os really its the browser... [04:09] tread carefully S4wiz [04:09] their computer are running windows 8.1 [04:10] S4wiz, perhaps you shouldn't be running unauthorized software on devices you don't own.

I've tried use VPN connection, change DNS, change different source(both for my country and US), but get the same result. I've searched some documents, the reason may be that Ubuntu 13.10 has already out of support(On July, 2014), so [14:18] update is not available. I'm in China, I've searched Ubuntu official site for China, but there is only a telephone in London, If I need technical support, I can find help on Ubuntu IRC channel, this is why I'm here.

[16:06] BluesKaj, does the huion 580 tablets have a history of working in ubuntu? [16:06] pvdisplay [16:06] surgy, who knows, that's my point [16:06] BluesKaj, ok ill reask my question.... [16:06] hello. Im running ubuntu 14.xx and am looking to buy a graphics tablet. I'm looking at the huion 580 series. will i have problems getting it to work? or will it just be plg and play? [16:06] MonkeyDust ++ [16:06] MonkeyDust++ [16:07] reask , but I think the answer will be the same surgy [16:07] BluesKaj, tons of people use tablets on linux. [16:07] please the command to check if an ubuntu operating system is configured using lvm [16:07] philip_ try sudo fdisk -l|grep LVM [16:07] Can I configure Ubuntu so that every command already has root privileges? [16:08] surgy, 15.04 is still very new tho [16:08] BluesKaj, then i can switch back..... i just want to know the general compatibility of the tablet with ubuntu.... [16:08] Adit: you can type sudo -i to get a root shell [16:08] MonkeyDust: fyi, that fdisk and grep for LVM doesn't work here... /me does use LVM [16:09] Adit: don't start gui programs though [16:09] EriC^^: EriC^^ : No, what I mean is: I do not require to enter my password every time I sudo. Not even once! [16:09] surgy, normally i wouldn't do this, but google is your friend === Guest29967 is now known as RedHacK [16:11] Adit: you can type sudo visudo and add the line ALL= (ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL [16:11] EriC^^: Ah, alright. Thanks [16:11] philip_ using 'mount', does it show 'mapper'? [16:13] Adit: fyi, running everything as root is a _terrible_ idea... [16:14] zykotick9: Maybe, I phrased what I wanted terribly. All I want is: No need to type your password when you sudo every time after you login === james_ is now known as Guest8391 [16:15] Adit: still terrible... say goodbye to security... [16:15] zykotick9, been using all no pwd for yrs without any ill effects, but I'm a home user so it's not too dangerous [16:16] Adit: as a practice that is not good for security [16:16] BluesKaj: no comment ;) [16:16] all nopwd won't log you in without a pw [16:16] I use my computer only for private use... I guess I'll just undo what I did [16:17] Adit, it's not that dangerous if you're not on WAN [16:17] BluesKaj: ..... I am.... [16:18] you still have to login with a pw unless you tuned it off during installation [16:18] Anyway, I reset the file to default state [16:20] there's a lot of paranoia about using root permissions that is just unecessary for home users in my experience [16:21] BluesKaj: IMO, what you are advocating is a system that can become a victim of virus/malware attacks :( [16:21] BluesKaj: what you talking about every lan is insecure as soon as you got a wlan at it [16:22] zykotick9, why do you still run windows on your pc? [16:22] because there is a legimitae cause to some users to use windows [16:22] BluesKaj: lol, i haven't owned/run a windows box since pre-XP_SP1... [16:22] games / sap in enterprises [16:23] please the command to check if an ubuntu operating system is configured using lvm [16:23] BluesKaj: ;) why are you turning gnu/linux into windows... [16:24] philip_: you could launch gparted to find out [16:24] philip_, try pvdisplay === andrex is now known as andrex|off [16:25] zykotick9, I learned about all nopwd a while back (about 5 yrs ago) and I haven't suffered any consequences by using it ...not as dangerous as you think [16:26] !wfm | BluesKaj [16:26] BluesKaj: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ [16:26] lol thats one of the admins who would not even reconize when his system is part of a botnet [16:27] *rolleyes* [16:27] zykotick9, have you tried all nopwd ? [16:28] BluesKaj: actually, i don't even use sudo <- i separate user from root access more then ubuntu does... i think sudo leads to bad practises, but that's just my personal opinion [16:29] BluesKaj: "zykotick9 is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported." [16:29] hello [16:29] is anyone having a problem with usr/bin/xorg? [16:29] I won't knock anyone about warning users, but i think it's a neat work around for us lazy home user types [16:30] but without 'sudo alarm' you could damage your own system [16:30] i'm having screen freezes and the problem appears to be in /usr/bin/xorg, anyone has a solution?

[18:23] OerHeks: yes my usb bluetooth adapter worked [18:23] i was able to transfer a file from my laptop to my phone via bluetooth with my usb bt adapter [18:24] gh0strider, what doesw 'lspci' tell you about that internal bt? that 8 digit hex number is important, to look for simular issues [18:24] Ahoy. I've noticed that on my laptop, if I tap the touchpad with all four fingers in rapid succession, from right to left, Ubuntu sometimes switches windows, as if I'd pressed Alt-Tab. [18:25] I assume this isn't the intended way of performing this gesture. What is? [18:25] rypervenche sorry internet lagged [18:26] OerHeks: i don't see anything bluetooth related in "lspci" [18:26] but i do have hci0 interface and it is up === darkdevil is now known as DarkDevil [18:26] gh0strider, hci0 sounds like the one [18:26] i do have an output with "hcitool dev" or hciconfig [18:26] gh0strider, usb ? [18:27] Ah, I did a Google search and it looks like the intended gesture is double-tapping with three fingers. [18:27] and when i do "dmesg |grep -i bluetooth" it seems that bluetooth is loaded fine [18:27] gh0strider, what is the output of rfkill list ? paste it on paste.ubuntu.com and give the url [18:27] ioria: internal [18:27] ioria: yes...i've also tried boot without nvidia drivers...this works, however maximum resolution was 1024x768 [18:27] Heks: rfkill is not blocking anything [18:27] malinator can you login or not ? [18:28] rfkill list was one of the first things i checked... [18:29] malinator try dpkg -l | grep blue [18:29] malinator sorry, not for you !!! [18:30] ok :) [18:30] (How) Can i make Chromium web browser feature mouse wheel click to scroll? [18:30] gh0strider, try dpkg -l | grep blue [18:30] ioria: i think i have installed all of the blue packages [18:31] i cannot login now since i installed nvidia drivers back but it is as it was :/ can't figure out what happened [18:31] How to increase the size of "/" partition [18:31] ? [18:32] malinator from console type ls -al ~/.Xauthority [18:32] are you dualbooting silenced? [18:33] gh0strider: yes [18:33] any of you who experienced terrible performance after getting oibaf/xorgedgers with ubuntu 15.04 and google chrome? [18:33] for example trying 720 res in youtube [18:34] silenced: you are going to have to burn the gparted iso to either usb drive or to cd and set bios to boot from usb or dvd and run the gparted iso and redo your / partition [18:34] hello everyone [18:34] i think there are some decent youtube videos on how to do it [18:35] hello ubuntu680 [18:35] I've just upgraded to 15.04 on my old laptop and something very weird is happening: pc keeps suspending without any reason [18:36] hi, i have an hour to waste playing fmpsg [18:36] err [18:36] games like quake por assault cube [18:36] Hi All be gentle with me ;-) I'm a newbie to ubuntu [18:36] what would you recommend? [18:36] Apachez: Release 15.04 has support for the later hardware . Is your chip set supported now ? ' ubuntu-drivers list ' to see . Maybe do away with the PPA ? [18:36] I can't even finish booting that it suspends.. the only thing I can do is to pass acpi=off to grub but doing so I have no hypertrading nor usb mouse working :-( [18:37] gh0strider, what kernel are you ? [18:37] gh0strider: thanks buddy [18:37] 3.13.0-52-generic === noteness is now known as naughtyness [18:37] silenced: no problem [18:38] I changed kernel, I don't think it's a kernel problem, I guess there is an init scripts, a daemon that start suspend [18:39] gh0strider, seems to be a bug for kernel 3.13 [18:40] gh0strider, for usb although [18:40] ioria: permissions are ok [18:40] gh0strider, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1221995 [18:40] hmm...makes sense then [18:40] Launchpad bug 1221995 in linux (Ubuntu) "0a12:0001 Bluetooth Dongle (Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd) doesn't work with 3.11 or 3.13 kernels" [Medium,Confirmed] [18:41] How can i make Chromium web browser feature mouse wheel click to scroll? [18:42] malinator can you paste ,just to be sure ? or you can sudo service lightdm restart [18:42] ioria: thanks for clearing that up..i may have to change the kernel and see if that helps [18:42] for now i guess i will just have to make do with my usb bluetooth adapter [18:43] gh0strider, maybe some deep, you know the driver in use ? [18:44] ioria: cannot paste, it has rw------- (owner and group as my username) [18:45] malinator ok.... sudo service lightdm restart (or gdm) ? [18:45] also tried restart lightdm but nothin... [18:45] Bashing-om: well something is fubared here and I have no clue on how to fix it [18:45] worked without problems in 14.10 [18:46] malinator boot with nomodeset ? [18:46] This is ridiculous, i find Plank dock in Ubuntu GNOME -- Synaptic PM search while in Xubuntu -- Synaptic PM search result nothing. How can i pin items in Plank dock when running it in GNOME session? [18:47] ibj: plank is only incluided since 15.04 , run the app and when it appears in the dock, lock it [18:48] ibj try cairo-dock, it's similar to plank [18:48] ok. but i can't drag items to Plank dock while running GNOME session [18:48] ioria: dont know... [18:48] i like Plank dock. I migrated fro Xubuntu to GNOME. [18:49] hi, how can I make the blue lighter in the tty's? [18:49] ioria: according to grub.cfg , yes with nomodeset [18:49] Apachez: What happens is that the graphics driver built for the older kernel gets broke when one upgrades to a newer kernel - not under ubuntu's control . If a driver is available in the repo then purge the PPA, and install the graphics driver from the repo . [18:50] h'loo [18:50] I changed the color of the directories to green, which solved a lot of my problems, but e.g. in emacs erc the blue names is hard to read on the black background. [18:50] also other tty questions to follow [18:51] how do I send a message across all of the channels I'm in? [18:51] how do I make the resolution from hdmi out be the same as on my screen? [18:51] I'm using tty1 [18:52] can anyone help me or point me to where I can learn more? [18:53] !cairo-dock [18:53] other than going into the settings for screens I'm not really sure excelsiora [18:54] hey guys! [18:54] Hullo [18:55] Is there a way to log in to console mode using a live usb? [18:55] aka ctl+alt+f1 [18:55] ra73: did you try that? [18:56] excelsiora: yea, aks for password [18:56] ra73: At the desktop does not the key combo ctl+alt+t not work for your use case ? [18:56] Bashing-om: doign file recovery operations, the DE just gets in the way for that [18:57] doing* [18:57] ra73: the password is ubuntu ... [18:57] did you try ubuntu with empty password? [18:58] there aint no password .. if you reach /bin/bash just type sudo -s and you're root [18:58] does anyone know how to program xchat? [18:59] ok, so changing my bash blue to another color, any thoughts? [18:59] program what? it's an IRC client [18:59] MoonBaby enter text, hit enter, wait for more text [18:59] @excelsiora i use lightblue with white text [19:00] ra73: Then to start the liveDVD to a terminal . at bios screen press the shift key -> language screen; escape key to accept the default -> boot menu -> F6 key ;escape key -> boot parameters line. Replace "quiet splash" with the term 'text' . key combo ctl+x to continue the boot process. [19:00] ok, maybe something in the bashrc? [19:00] MonkeyDust, funny I'm a lil more complex than that [19:00] @excelsiora do you want to change the color or the behaviour? [19:01] I'm an internet DJ and I want to send fun messages across all the channels and servers I'm on [19:01] the color itself [19:01] whatever the blue is, I want to make it brighter [19:01] globally [19:01] ioria: there is a message in syslog: "NVRM: None of the NVIDIA graphics adapters were initialized [19:01] excelsiora, set set the colors in ~bashrc ? [19:01] ok, but how? [19:01] http://bashrcgenerator.com/ [19:01] @excelsiora afaik the you can change the color in the context-menu of terminal [19:01] MoonBaby no fun messages here, please [19:02] Settings>Preferances then go down to colors and it'll give you a palate [19:02] @excelsiora it has nothing to do with .bashrc [19:02] if I could get an answer I wouldn't be here [19:02] MoonBaby maybe in another channel, not here [19:03] excelsiora, in bash rc BLUE='\e[0;34m' or something like rgb_blue='\[\033[01;34m\]' unset rgb_blue [19:03] @AndyDavis nice.. that works?? [19:03] MonkeyDust like I said if I could figure out how to do it I wouldn't be in here anymore [19:03] raphus, works for me in my ~/.bashrc === james_ is now known as Guest93528 [19:04] of cource you need to run source after or open a new shell [19:04] thats awesome.. does it apply even if you dont boot into any GUI? [19:04] *text mode [19:05] MoonBaby: You might want to try #xchat, they'll know more. But there's plenty of script/plugin/whatever collections on the internet, for you to probably find something pre-made doing what you want. ( http://xchat.org/docs/ has info on scripting ) [19:05] raphus, yes I can poaste a bash.rc if you would like to try [19:05] @AndyDavis just the color part would be awesome [19:05] for text and bg [19:06] thanks Flannel I've been to several sites and scrolling through all the patches makes me dizzy [19:06] malinator try to installthe proper driver fromconsole [19:07] MoonBaby better ask in #ubuntu-offtopic [19:07] MoonBaby: That is "the" site. And here's a list of the plugins: http://xchat.org/cgi-bin/script_list.pl/ [19:07] raphus, http://paste.ubuntu.com/11048481/ [19:07] @AndyDavis thx :)) [19:08] raphus, make a backup ofcource. [19:08] raphus, look at the "welome screen" see how I am asaining colors [19:08] MoonBaby: If you're looking to do scripting yourself, you could probably snag code from any announcer (seems like there's one for each media player) and then just turn it into an alias or whatever xchat calls them to say arbitrary things. [19:09] @AndyDavis yeah thats bright :) [19:09] thanks Flannel I've been there [19:10] raphus, if you are a tmux user feel free to uncomment the 1st couple of lines (lines 2 -- 4 ) [19:10] quick question: is there a way to make systemd ask before running a target? In other words is it possible to choose which init script to run? please dont tell me to use update-rc because I cannot boot [19:10] MoonBaby: Right, but like I said, the people in #xchat probably are better prepared to help you. Many people here don't even use xchat. [19:10] MoonBaby this is not the right channel for your question, please don't reject every advice and direction [19:11] MonkeyDust: Relax [19:11] @AndyDavis my .bashrc is pretty big so i would just copy all colors and how to call them and comment out the ones i dont use [19:11] malinator or try removing 'acpi=off' from the kernel parameters [19:11] I'm in xchat and ubuntu off topic now ... I'm not rejecting it I'm just sayin where I've been ... thanks [19:12] ubuntu3, you have looked at the "Targets tables" [19:12] Hello ! [19:12] ioria: I'll try, thanks for tips :) [19:12] I am looking for some support to install a driver on Lubuntu [19:12] sorry ubuntu680 you have looked at target tables and boot order [19:12] I'm quite a newbie and I have some difficulties [19:13] is it possible to skype on ubuntu? [19:13] May anyone help me or send me to a more appropriate channel ? [19:13] !skype | likecolacola [19:13] likecolacola: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga [19:13] @likecolacola isnt skype in the softwareCenter? [19:14] raphus, good question... [19:14] bprompt, thanks ! [19:14] !ekiga [19:14] ekiga is an Internet telephony application included with Ubuntu, which supports the SIP and H323 protocols. Information and help at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ekiga [19:14] likecolacola: enable the partner repository and install it using software centre [19:14] !google-hangout [19:14] No skype in 14.04. [19:15] AndyDavis, google hangout is non-free, but still better than skype [19:15] @AndyDavis +1 [19:15] Orthopedux: The reommended method to install drivers is via the "Additional Drivers" utility ( Software sources) . Have you been there ? [19:15] AndyDavis: jitsi-meet [19:15] Cysioland: never understood why Skype took off when it's using a proprietary protocol,when sip works on anything and is open.... [19:15] I have been there [19:16] It only shows the nvidia drivers [19:16] ActionParsnip, because it was user friendly [19:16] Cysioland: so is ekiga... [19:16] My problem is that my wifi card (WM3945ABG) find wifi networks, but can't connect to them [19:16] ActionParsnip, IMHO you shove enough software down end users they are going to use it. Example IE [19:17] AndyDavis: IE isn't as bad as people say. It just seems cool to dislike it [19:17] I downloaded some drivers in a .tgz file, but don't know what to do with [19:17] Orthopedux: Regrets, but my experience does not extend to WIFI issues . [19:17] Orthopedux: are there lots of networks on the same channel? [19:18] Well, if you can tell me how to "install" a .ucode file, it could help me :) [19:18] No, there's not so much networks. [19:18] Orthopedux: are they on the same channel? [19:19] !tab | Orthopedux [19:19] Orthopedux: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [19:19] Nope [19:19] AndyDavis: can you explain how your recommendation works? [19:19] There's 2 wifi actually, not on the same channel [19:19] Orthopedux: if you run: sudo lshw -C network [19:19] excelsiora, not sure that I follow, [19:19] It seems it's a known issue with my wifi card, but I can't manage to find/understand a solution [19:19] Orthopedux: what driver are you using? [19:19] I've put both of them in my .bashrc, and commented them [19:19] *dances* [19:19] does anyone know how to install gcc i686 on a 64bit install? [19:20] should I just try them one at a time and source my .bashrc? [19:20] Well, not sure I know how to find that information [19:20] I can't seem to get rid of make[1]: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc: Command not found [19:20] My main os is windows. I decide to install Ubuntu. What do I need to worry about install and dual boot? but dual boot can make worse or partition or anything that i said wrong? [19:20] marcosscriven, use cross packaging [19:20] Orthopedux: it's a command, run it in the terminal [19:20] I m on terminal, ready to type [19:20] Orthopedux, can you paste ls /etc/modprobe.d/ ? [19:20] sure [19:21] jxierx: make sure your backups are up to date, then resize your ntfs in Windows [19:21] Orthopedux: sudo lshw -C network [19:21] !multiarch | marcosscriven maybe this is what you want [19:21] What do you mean up to date? [19:21] I didn't backup [19:21] !ia32-libs | marcosscriven maybe this is what you want [19:21] jxierx: so your data isn't important to you? [19:21] err [19:22] AndyDavis: yes - I'm building a project that has components with both i686 and 64 bit components [19:22] Maybe but don't wanna say(what's can go wrong) ;_; ? [19:22] jxierx: dual boots normally go fine for me, if you have a good grasp of how partitions work then you should be at least able to not overwrite things, but backups will ensure you won't be in tears later. [19:22] AndyDavis, they still exist ? [19:22] I don't know much about partitions [19:22] marcosscriven, what kinda project ? maybe you need to call the correct Compiler. What kinda make system is this ? cmake make qmake ? [19:23] Eyo people, how's multi-GPU support these days? [19:23] jxierx: resize your ntfs in Windows then reboot to Ubuntu live CD and install to the freed space [19:23] AndyDavis: it's using 'make' [19:23] Okay, I am stupid, how do i C/C on terminal ? [19:23] I have /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu [19:23] jxierx: lots of YouTube videos for resizing partitions [19:23] marcosscriven, can you pastebin the output of the error ? [19:23] andydavis there should be a script that make my laptop suspend before launching X (service lightdm) and after network setup, don't know which one :( [19:23] ActionParsnip: http://www.disk-partition.com/resource/resize-NTFS-partition-windows.html this? [19:23] AndyDavis: But it also wants /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc: [19:24] Orthopedux, make a main class then compile with gcc [19:24] even live suspends [19:24] what ? [19:24] https://gist.github.com/anonymous/50d5d28587bdc4b0c7e7 [19:24] Orthopedux, not for you [19:24] jxierx: yes, use method 2 [19:25] jxierx: you should look into backups. It helps ensure data integrity [19:25] c have classes ? [19:25] Orthopedux, example. make a main.cpp file that has your C++ code in it. then from the command line run g++ /path/to/main/cpp There are tons of options [19:25] ActionParsnip: what? [19:26] Which partition, windows? [19:26] jxierx: if you start messing with your system and have issues then your user data can be recovered [19:26] you make me confused [19:26] AndyDavis: hi so I've tried both suggestions, and the blues in my tty are still unreadable [19:27] AndyDavis: I'm tring to build https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform/vboot_reference/+/firmware-wolf-4389.24.B [19:27] jxierx, it is policy to tell you to backup your data before messing with partitions. [19:27] jxierx: use Windows disk management to make unpartitioned space then install to that. I think you should research some before starting [19:27] but it's built as part of https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/coreboot/+/firmware-wolf-4389.24.B [19:27] marcosscriven, maybe you can alias the toolchain that it wants , like export thta [19:29] excelsiora, make a copy of your old bashrc file cp ~/.bashrc ~/.bashrc.bak then paste in the paste I gave you. Then save the new bashrc file and run source ~/.bashrc [19:29] alsa-base.conf dkms.conf blacklist-ath_pci.conf fbdev-blacklist.conf blacklist.conf iwlwifi.conf blacklist-firewire.conf libpisock9.conf blacklist-framebuffer.conf mlx4.conf blacklist-modem.conf modesetting.conf blacklist-oss.conf nvidia-304_hybrid.conf blacklist-rare-network.conf nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf blacklist-watchdog.conf vmwgfx-fbdev.conf [19:29] You mean I ned to make a partition for ubuntu? [19:29] And a backup in windows (or external hdd)? [19:29] alsa-base.conf dkms.conf blacklist-ath_pci.conf fbdev-blacklist.conf blacklist.conf iwlwifi.conf blacklist-firewire.conf libpisock9.conf blacklist-framebuffer.conf mlx4.conf blacklist-modem.conf modesetting.conf blacklist-oss.conf nvidia-304_hybrid.conf blacklist-rare-network.conf nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf blacklist-watchdog.conf vmwgfx-fbdev.conf [19:30] jxierx backups are always useful [19:30] Okay, these are my ls /etc/modprobe.d [19:30] alsa-base.conf dkms.conf [19:31] AndyDavis: both lines activated at the same time? [19:31] blacklist-ath_pci.conf fbdev-blacklist.conf [19:31] blacklist.conf iwlwifi.conf [19:31] also, the unset should be on the same line? [19:31] A software backup(Acronics) or windows backup? [19:31] okay, so my wifi driver is iwlwifi [19:31] and my wifi card is a wm3945abg [19:32] i have dowloaded a iwlwifi-3945-2.ucode, but I dont know how to install it [19:33] jxierx, if you don't backup your data, it isn important. [19:33] Orthopedux, lsmod | grep iwl ? [19:33] excelsiora, are you sure that you got the full paste ? make sure that it is all of it., [19:33] but which [19:33] OerHeks: by windows or by software? [19:33] iwl3945 69185 0 [19:33] hello guys, will "mount -t btrfs -o compress=lzo,discard,autodefrag,ssd,noatime,space_cache,subvolid=260 /dev/sda /mnt/var" mount it's subvolumes? (/mnt/var/cache...) [19:33] iwlegacy 100515 iwl 3945 [19:33] Orthopedux2, why ? I thought that iwlwifi is in the kernel ? [19:34] max80211 660592 iwl3945,iwlegacy [19:34] cfg80211 510218 3 iwl3945,iwlegacy,mac80211 [19:34] Orthopedux, oh, man [19:34] Well, I don't really know i admit [19:34] jxierx, backup the way you like? [19:35] I just found that somewhere, specifically for my card, about my specific problem [19:35] Orthopedux, is this usb or built in ? [19:35] Orthopedux, you have a crowd down there [19:35] built int [19:36] Ornacia, what do you get if you run sudo lshw -C network can you pastebin that [19:36] Hi, can someone help me wiith USB LIVE STARTUP [19:36] AndyDavis: ok, sourced it, no change [19:37] excelsiora, you are not getting the welcome screen and the calender and what not with new shell ? [19:37] Hi, can someone help me wiith USB LIVE STARTUP. I have garbled screen and cannot seem to enter nomode startup by any method [19:37] excelsiora, can you paste bin the bashrc please. and show to me. [19:38] ok, isn't there a script that pipes things to pastebin? [19:38] excelsiora, pastebinit [19:38] Hi, can someone help me wiith USB LIVE STARTUP. I have garbled screen and cannot seem to enter nomode startup by any method [19:39] !pastebinit | excelsiora this ? [19:39] excelsiora this ?: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [19:39] ok, http://paste.ubuntu.com/11049005 [19:39] excelsiora, ok that needs a lot of work. [19:39] I'm still in tty1, so cut and paste doesn't work very well, but I used to win spelling bees and I'm rather conscientious, so you can trust my retyping. [19:41] excelsiora, see where you are setting the xtrem color ? [19:41] Hi, can someone help me wiith USB LIVE STARTUP. I have garbled screen and cannot seem to enter nomode startup by any method. I've scoured through online help files and can't seem to sort things out. [19:42] lorddune: garbled screen at what point? [19:42] Orthopedux, ok,try this sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/iwl3945.conf and put in it : options iwl3945 swcrypto=0 [19:42] bprompt: I have Nvidia, so after OS boots [19:43] lorddune: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? [19:43] bprompt: I upgraded from 12 to 14.04 LTS and it corrupted my machine where I try to login and it goes into and el=ndless loop [19:43] ioria: could use cat and tee to populate the file :-) [19:43] ActionParsnip: yes, it is a perfect image file [19:43] excelsiora, what happens if you run this ?

[21:14] it is not video and got nothing to do with video what-so-ever [21:17] LeEarl_, maybe the disc is faulty, try an other: start brasero, choose the iso to burn as an image, then wait for it to ask for a dvd, insert disc, voila [21:17] I need to forward port 8069 to 80.

[22:55] Yeah. Ubuntu Mate :) [22:56] dick_: nothing of what you've said hugely makes sense. an OS does not fix a BIOS, other than to either update it or perform a CMOS reset if it's behaving oddly. [22:56] (neither of which necessarily happen from the OS) [22:56] I did the cmos thing though. and it's not that it's 'dead'. What happens is, I go to turn it back on, and nothing.. then I shut it off, turn it back on, then it goes to post, but doesn't go further.. then I try again, and sometimes I'll find the damn hard drive and boot [22:57] dick_: got a make and model on this thing? or is it a custom build? [22:57] could be a bios setting, embty bios battery .. join #hardware for trouble. [22:57] to be honest none of these issues are Ubuntu related, so... yeah ^ [22:58] anyone on a i386 machine ? If so can I get the output to uname -m thansk [22:58] thanks * [22:58] Right I know that... but while I'm on the thing, is there anything I can do to fix the problem.. I finally have something booted, and I don't wanna shut it off [22:58] CMOS battery sounds like a good call given how cheap they are, i've had a system recently which doesn't power on properly after mains has been removed, due to the battery dying [22:58] AndyDavis, useless, as some of us are on 12.04/14,04/15.04 ... what version are you one? [22:58] dick_: no. [22:58] how come your still producing powerpc images and not +mac images? [22:59] tahr249751: mac are integrated into 64-bit images now, so no need [22:59] the PPC is community maintained and not regular [22:59] powerpc is older than macintosh computers that can't boot the regular amd64 disc [22:59] tahr249751, as apple can use the regular amd64 bit images. [22:59] OerHeks, must be cross Code name [22:59] Hey guys I am having a problem with my muli screen set up. Using Nvidia X server. My mouse gets stuck on the monitors that are on my second graphics card and will appear at the edge of the monitors being driven by my primary GPU [22:59] tahr249751: macs that can't boot the amd64 likely have other issues [22:59] so you decided to drop support support on more recent technologies [22:59] OerHeks, I think that uname has not changed in a while [23:00] AndyDavis, i can't help you there, i am on 64 bit. [23:00] OerHeks, writing a script that needs to check host arch for building [23:00] tahr249751: we're volunteers, we are not employees of Canonical - so it is not 'we' at all. Now, you are entirely wrong - the amd64 images work just fine :) [23:00] I think it is i386 but can not remember and [23:00] hi everyone [23:00] time to make a lxc I guess [23:00] dick_: so is it a branded PC or custom build? [23:01] can some one please teach me how to hide ip in IRC [23:01] venom_: not relevant here. go to #freenode and ask [23:01] ok [23:01] venom_, one way is to ask for a cloak, join #freenode for that [23:03] How about "flashing" the bios... I have a flash drive and the ability to download stuff... does that help? when the mobo starts acting all shotty? [23:03] daftykins funny you say that, cause it still tries to boot from EFI32 instead of through BIOS emulation, thus I get the unpenetrable "Select CD-ROM Boot Type" message [23:04] Where I have to hold the power button down till my computer turns off, as everything else goes unresponsive [23:04] dick_, bios flashing is still an issue under linux, maybe freedos is any help. [23:06] OerHeks: try telling the coreboot/libreboot folks that ;) [23:07] Well what I was meaning. I can download the bios flasher thing, reboot to the flash drive and perform the flash... Does flashing help? People have said in the past that now and again it's good to do to bring the motherboard back to factory [23:07] tahr249751: not using rEFInd i take it? [23:08] dick_: doesn't make sense to me, that - and still wouldn't resolve a dead battery [23:08] dick_: you keep ignoring my question of make+model though [23:08] Compaq something.. I forgot the model number because the sticker got worn off over time.. it's an srx or sxr something [23:09] ok so it's a factory build at least [23:09] except for the hard drives yes [23:10] check for a version number, it might be displayed if you run "sudo apt-get install pastebinit && dmesg | pastebinit" [23:10] zykotick9, are those the guys that try to make a linux tool for bios upgrades? [23:10] before this all happened I was getting mad blue screens on windows 7.. but I'm going to try changing out the battery.. cause I'm looking as well and it shows that "if it works here and there, but things still "power up".. then sounds like a battery issue"... so I will go get one and try it.. :) [23:10] Windows was BSODing? [23:11] now it sounds like the system isn't even stable [23:11] alright this is nowhere near an ubuntu query, you're going to have to move further talk to ##hardware [23:11] OerHeks: not exactly, they both make bios replacements... but there is a lot of "flashing" from gnu/linux systems, just not factory bios images [23:16] I had some scrap motherboards laying around :D older. but their all 3v right? [23:20] Some cool themes I just came across for Ubuntu - http://kb.openstudioproject.com/content/ubuntu/best-ubuntu-1404-trusty-themes [23:22] dick_: 3v? lol doesn't even make sense. [23:22] and like i said, this isn't a hardware support channel [23:22] as much as i enjoy it [23:22] 3 volt [23:22] yes but that makes no sense. [23:23] Well I have a couple batteries, after I get my updates done. I'm going to change it out and try it [23:27] I'm making an effort to understand bcache today (http://evilpiepirate.org/git/linux-bcache.git/tree/Documentation/bcache.txt) for a high performance DB server. If someone has experience/understanding - can you confirm my understanding? Once I've setup bcache following the instructions (with my SSDs and HDDs each setup in a stripe raid), I can setup my DB to write to the HDD raid and bcache will step in and do the needful === zoktar_ is now known as zoktar === adante_ is now known as adante [23:42] any of you who experienced laggy performance in google chrome (displaying hd material) with ubuntu 15.04? [23:54] Can't get one of my monitors to display correctly === RtMF is now known as QuinnStorm [23:55] same monitors one is connected with a hdmi cord and the other with a dvi [23:56] AR45: ubuntu version? graphics card? driver in use? driver version? connection type? [23:56] 15 [23:56] answer all on one line please [23:56] 4600 intel 4600 [23:56] hdmi and dvi [23:57] hi [23:58] mount: mounting sys on root/sys failed no such dir [23:58] seems like hd lost some sectors? [23:58] or bad sectors? [23:58] root/dev is missing too :D [23:58] monitor connected with the DVI isn't displaying at the right resolution [23:58] grend: are you in a live session? [23:59] I think I just have the open source drivers [23:59] AR45: pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log [23:59] daftykins: I run recover option [23:59] grend: so you're sat at a CLI shell?
