[00:00] bashing-om yeah taht's fixed it thanks [00:00] Hi, I've found something interesting which doesn't work correctly (I think). When I use the terminal, first thing I do is to type "~∕Doc", and then I press tab to use the auto-completion, but my terminal does not propose me something. Why ? [00:00] whats boa noite mean? [00:00] what about "cd Doc *tab* " ? [00:01] it's not english so who cares (: [00:01] you mean to use the "*" ? [00:01] portugues for good evening [00:01] ah, good evening :) [00:01] Nairwolf: no, i meant what i typed [00:02] yes, it works without ~ [00:02] I type "cd Doc" then I press tab [00:02] but why it doesn't work with this "cd ~/Doc" then, tab ? [00:04] no idea [00:04] why does it need to? :) [00:05] Nairwolf, it works, but only from an other folder like / [00:05] cd / # cd ~/Doc works [00:05] OerHeks : Sorry, I don't understand what you've said [00:06] it works from your root = / [00:06] what means # cd [00:06] ah, ok [00:06] No, it doesn't work from my root / [00:07] daftykins : As "~" mean "/home/nairwolf" I would like to use it and auto-completion also [00:07] in what circumstance? [00:07] honestly i think you should just accept it [00:08] it's like the use of "~" disable auto-completion [00:08] Here it works, don't know why it does not work for you [00:09] yes, I should just accept that, but, it means if I need to type a long command with ~, I won't use the autocompletion [00:09] okay, so, I've an issue.... [00:09] moreover, I think it worked before on my system [00:10] oh, I've typed "bash" [00:10] and now, it works again ;) [00:10] so apparently your default shell isn't bash 0o [00:10] the above works fine here [00:11] i did "mkdir Test" then "cd ~T *tab*" and it worked fine [00:11] and you didn't use "/" between "~" and "T" ? [00:12] i did [00:12] because that's correct [00:12] ok [00:12] thanks [00:13] Anyone know the simplest way to disable all kinds of VSync and disable all kinds of frames per second limits in the 'radeon' driver on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS? [00:13] you probably can't [00:14] I'm virtually completely sure it's possible, I just am not sure which method is simplest [00:15] doesn't look like it from my searches [00:15] not with the radeon driver [00:16] I've read one thing that said to make a file called something like driiconf in \home [00:18] Another thing I think might do it is turning off all effects and animations and eye candy but not sure how to do that properly [00:18] Read something about turning off compiz completely might help [00:19] what are you trying to achieve in general? [00:19] Well I'm trying uncap the 60 fps limit in this game "Quake Live" which I'm playing through Wine [00:20] ah [00:20] running it with vblank_mode=0 does the trick for windowed mode but not for fullscreen mode [00:24] Oh actually the file was called something.drirc [00:24] Not driiconf [00:28] 60fps is twice what your eyes can see anyway... [00:28] that is rubbish [00:29] got a url on that? [00:31] total bs. i can definately percieve fps higher than 60 [00:32] gzcwnk: not my responsibility to prove it to you i'm afraid :) [00:32] sunstar: I think you intended that for another channel. [00:32] yup. had no idea what channel this was [00:32] sunstar: Sorry, now I see the context. Replying to messages with that user's nick helps. [00:32] hey :) just wondering if anyone can help point out how I can apt-get bind 9.10.2? (currently stable) [00:32] so you cant prove you are not talking cwap(TM) then... [00:33] when i try apt-get install bind9, it gets 9.9.5 [00:33] Ive read stuff and 60fps sems to be heaps. [00:33] gzcwnk: please approach channels such as this with a mature attitude in future. [00:33] and your reply was mature? [00:33] feel free to take that topic to #ubuntu-offtopic :) [00:33] http://www.testufo.com/#test=framerates&count=2&background=none&pps=960 [00:34] there you go gzcwnk [00:34] buddhabu: What is the refresh rate of your monitor? [00:35] which kind of proves my point.... [00:36] It's 60, but with higher fps it still looks better than if capped at 60 for me. Also my latency to servers in the game are lower with no fps caps [00:37] I know because of testing with Windows where I can make no fps caps easily [00:38] i'm surprised you're not using fglrx if gaming [00:38] * gzcwnk watch bacual backup......bored [00:38] i need faster disks [00:39] How much better is fglrx compared to the 'radeon' driver [00:39] try it. [00:40] Seems like a lot of trouble if I want to stay on 14.04 LTS [00:41] to do what? [00:41] to switch to fglrx [00:42] installing an entire package? :) [00:43] all i have is legacy hardware but in my experience it actually makes things worse (using fglrx) [00:43] hmm well if you are at legacy status you can't even use fglrx anymore [00:43] buddhabu: One advantage is support for OpenGL 4.0, but if you don't have any apps that require OpenGL features unavailable in radeon, then that won't matter much to you. Performance may also be better, but that gap has been growing smaller. [00:44] i think that'd depend on the card === JuneBUG is now known as JuneBUG-M-40 [00:44] Oh this is with a Mobility Radeon HD 3650 [00:44] oh that sounds too old to be supported anymore [00:44] so no fglrx nope [00:45] so i downloaded a file in the form of .raw that is full of data, i know that this is normally a picture file but how can i extract this file on to my thumbdrive [00:46] hi, how to remove Wine in linux ? === screedoz is now known as screedo [00:46] sudo apt-get autoremove wine [00:46] that is not good program for run application windows. [00:46] try that [00:46] its thye only one though [00:46] ok i type that [00:47] *the [00:47] on terminal [00:47] yes [00:47] you can open Ubuntu Software Center and uninstall it from the list of installed programs or you can go to terminal and type sudo-apt get remove wine denis_ [00:47] Captonjamason: so, is it not in fact a picture file? [00:47] Captonjamason: it's not an archive, there's no extraction with raw [00:48] well its a OS on it [00:48] what? [00:48] and i know that for a fact [00:48] where did you get this... [00:48] pictures in .raw can be converted to .jpg === joao is now known as Mete- [00:48] !info ufraw [00:48] or use darktable [00:48] Captonjamason: maybe you want dd then? if it's like a disk image, or etc. [00:48] ok [00:48] ufraw (source: ufraw): standalone importer for raw camera images. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.20-2 (vivid), package size 555 kB, installed size 2394 kB [00:48] the application is always in my menu why ? === help is now known as Guest12520 [00:49] how do i extract it with dd then, [00:49] Captonjamason: tell us where you got this file [00:49] Question [00:49] just can i know how to use dd to extract a file [00:50] thats all i need [00:50] i go to restart my computer and i go back [00:50] no, because i don't believe that's appropriate [00:50] running warty warhod and can't download ndiswrapper [00:50] so state where you got it so the answer can be confirmed [00:50] Captonjamason, don't dd, use a tool to make a regular jpg file [00:50] its not a picture [00:50] Captonjamason: yeah, tbf idk if it would work not knowing anything about this, but something like dd if=/foo/bar/mysterious-file.raw of=/dev/sdx # could do it. That's running on the assumption that this is like an iso, or drive image, or something. [00:51] and ive already found a fourm post that somebody asked with the same question and it worked when he used dd [00:51] so i just flatout want to know how to use dd [00:52] that is an incredibly stubborn attitude [00:52] Captonjamason: where sdx is your thumbdrive, make sure you get if and of correct, if for the input of dd and of for the output, otherwise it's sad days. [00:55] i dont know how to use dd to extract a file, i dont even know what dd is, all i need is a simple explanation of what command i need to run in terminal [00:55] and you got one [00:55] Captonjamason: there's also 'man dd' [00:55] but i will not be helping until you state what this file is and where it came from [00:55] (because i don't like guessing) [00:56] there is no archive format in raw AFAIK [00:56] could run file on it, see what file has to say about this [00:56] doubt it's gonna know [00:57] wierd [00:59] probably DATA [00:59] probably a picture of me [00:59] oops [00:59] Commander Data? [01:04] Please help, my server running Ubuntu 15.04 keeps rebooting more than once a day: http://pastebin.com/NaAQ8b7A [01:04] It's some kind of crash but I dont understand whats going on [01:05] using 15.04 server isn't too wise as it's non-LTS [01:05] maybe start again with real LTS (14.04) if you haven't done much to it.

[01:13] that drive is being killed [01:14] toast [01:14] Lol [01:14] put a fork in it [01:14] Wait is that really what it is? [01:14] you should be able to hold your fingers on a disk, ie 40~50 deg c [01:14] check your log that you just pasted [01:14] Its hosted by a company in a datacenter [01:14] way under 40 deg C. [01:14] 194dec would melt the solder on the circuit board btw [01:15] it melts at 122 deg c [01:15] so its probably F [01:15] I see that repeated at or around 0800 to 0900 [01:15] sounds like the servo ic [01:15] I just ran 'smartctl -a /dev/sdb' and it outputted this under one of the lines '194 Temperature_Celsius 0x0002 206 206 000 Old_age Always - 29 (Min/Max 20/45)' [01:17] joshh20: and? [01:18] Well that looks like it's saying the temperature is only 29 degrees Celsius [01:18] sure does [01:19] smart should say passed or not [01:19] 29deg c is fine [01:19] gzcwnk It says the SMART test is passed [01:19] 'SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED" [01:20] k [01:20] anything on the console when its rebooting? [01:20] Well its headless so I'm not sure [01:21] if you set quiet splash on booting ubuntu will ubuntu information that is quickly displayed later be available in syslog? [01:22] might be on boot.log [01:22] *in [01:22] I had a quick look in your paste nothing jumped out as an issue [01:22] Idler: Yes. [01:23] Should I paste kern.log and boot.log ? [01:23] is that later deleted when ubuntu shuts down? like cleaning /tmp [01:23] well that went badly....i just put a gui on my server and now I have no terminal at all [01:24] it'd probably be better to use the channel as support, like it's intended - rather than a chat spot, gzcwnk [01:27] ok so how do i recover from no video? [01:28] !recovery [01:28] If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode. For instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode [01:28] try modifying GRUB_GFXMODE [01:29] yep... [01:30] Here is my kern.log : http://mythicraids.com/docs/kern.log.txt [01:30] Tried to use pastebin but it said it was too big [01:31] how many lines is this?

[02:22] jay_: so where's the problem? [02:23] i mounted the drive using the ext2 pacakge [02:23] package [02:23] but when i do ls /mnt/seagate it just sits there [02:23] 'package' ?

[02:32] try skipping the "-t ext4" bit [02:32] yeah it says bad superblock then it gives the drive [02:32] ok [02:32] might need someone with LVM skills at this point [02:33] yeah same error [02:33] What is better lubuntu kubuntu or normal ubuntu?

[02:34] the nic card fried in the enclosure [02:34] the drive itself is fine [02:34] i can only enter ubuntu from rescatux and then i can see the grub menu and i have to enter in recovery mode, the error is modeprobe error unknown filesystem [02:34] jay_: ah. [02:34] they sent me a new drive, i thought about cracking it open and putting old drive in, but i have no idea what that might do [02:35] bad idea [02:35] why do you say that [02:35] i think that drive took some of the damage [02:35] many reasons [02:36] warranty, this disk is obviously a bit funky [02:36] '/win 13 [02:36] oops [02:36] ok well no offense but the linux recovery route has been a dead end for days [02:36] many people start to help then drift off [02:36] i could care less about the warranty, tehy gave me permission to crack open the drive (seagate) i just want my files back [02:37] Dafty out of 3 what one is nicest, lubuntu kubuntu or straight Ubuntu? [02:37] jay_: well it looks to me like that drives file system has been corrupted [02:37] Depends on your machine [02:37] jay_: it's only been a dead end since you're new to it clearly [02:37] What has the nicest feel gibarian [02:38] daftykins ok , so i have tried everyones "cure" and none have worked [02:38] i haven't supplied one.

[02:42] although Dropbox is making my ocd life miserable [02:42] daftykins: oh is it lvm [02:42] Im just trying to find a sweet spot to start deving gibarian haha [02:42] in LXDE [02:43] yeah it is :( [02:43] seagate apprently set the drive up like a raid-1 [02:43] daftykins: i don't use fancy stuff like lvm or encryption, for this exact reason [02:43] several of the "drives" show the drives software, the large chunk holds the share data [02:43] The sweet spot, hard to find [02:44] i was told to mount it and remove the data [02:44] found a forum post on this exact drive [02:44] probably my post lol [02:45] daftykins link?

[02:48] should see your data [02:50] yeah i can see it all! [02:50] ok so your next task is to mount the new drive over the network so you can back it up, correct? [02:50] yeah if i do not crack the new drive i can sell it on beay [02:50] :) [02:50] ebay [02:50] i dont want the damn thing lol [02:51] so what do you want to do now? as i guessed above, or? [02:51] so my guess is i unbox the new drive, plug it in to the linux box and then away we go? [02:51] if i owned that drive i'd want rid of those awkward partitions [02:51] can i see my data in a folder structure on this box [02:51] Im not keeping it daftykins [02:51] pretty sure you should have just done so with my lass command [02:52] *last [02:52] im backing it up then sending the old drive back to seagate then selling the new one [02:52] no i mean in an explorer window [02:52] sorry nautilus [02:52] why must it be graphical? [02:52] lol sorry im a winblows guy [02:52] i guessi can drill down [02:52] so am i but i still prefer CLI [02:52] but i would like to be able to open a few files [02:52] i don't understand where your data is gonna live once you get rid of both :P [02:53] on a lacey vault [02:53] ok "ls -al /mnt/ | pastebinit" [02:53] i'll be back in 5, i gotta do a couple of house chores [02:53] cool ill be here [02:53] thanks for the help btw some headway finally [02:57] jay_: can you run the above? [02:57] is there a version that doesn't install with a GUI? [02:57] is that still the server edition? [02:57] i executed the command, it has nto returned any output === NeoN is now known as Guest98587 [03:00] hello [03:00] Login [03:00] jay_: hrmm it really should have. that's "ls -al /mnt/" (lower case L) [03:01] Hi there everyone [03:02] !minimal | kru [03:02] kru: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [03:02] kruug: ^^ [03:02] Bashing-om: Is that still LiveCD-able? [03:02] Well I have learned a little more about xubuntu and I am really enjoying it. [03:02] kruug: No live mode with that .iso . [03:03] melissa_: ok, got a support question? that's what this channel is for [03:03] yeah i did it the way you put it in, it hangs [03:03] Is there a LiveCD that doesn't have the GUI? [03:03] I am still of course new to linux to begin with but I am enjoying it. [03:03] melissa_: welcome :) It's a great time :) [03:04] kruug: I think the two are mutaully exclusive . [03:04] thanks for the reminder daftykins just mentioning it is all [03:04] jay_: hrmm ok well install gksu/gksudo then click the dash top left and run "gksudo nautilus" to be able to browse to /mnt/disk/Public and try some files i guess [03:04] melissa_: ok, well chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic :) [03:05] Bashing-om: alright, thanks. Is there a lighter version of Ubuntu for LiveCD's? I have a 4GB USB, and I tried the regular/Unity version, and updating it took up the majority of the USB drive. [03:06] kruug: you don't run from the flash drive permanently :) [03:06] Is there a good program for playing dvd's? [03:06] you just install from it [03:06] melissa_: vlc [03:06] daftykins i cannot find gksudo [03:06] kruug: lubuntu is the lightest live install that I am aware of . [03:06] might be gksu [03:06] daftykins: I'm wanting to. [03:07] Bashing-om: thanks, I'll give that a shot :) [03:07] kruug: to which? [03:07] hello, does anyone knows any free vpn software for ubuntu? [03:07] nmv im installing gksu now [03:07] I found xubuntu fairly easy to install [03:07] daftykins: run from the USB long-term [03:07] kruug: bad move [03:08] I don't want to run a HDD/SSD, I just want access to the processor and GPU [03:08] and RAM [03:08] for altcoin mining [03:08] ugh [03:08] daftykins: :) [03:08] all my hardware was supported with xubuntu no editing needed [03:08] kruug, there are lighter linux versions [03:08] kruug: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu . [03:09] daftykins it is isntalled but i cannot locate it [03:09] kruug, try LFS, it has many options [03:09] est31: do they run off USB? [03:09] yes that too [03:09] kruug, easiest is network based boot [03:09] bear in mind est31 doesn't understand the situation since those suggestions don't help [03:09] netbios [03:09] est31: LFS is too involved for my needs now, and netboot won't work [03:09] ok i got it to pop up the run command [03:10] there are other options on the spectrum too kruug [03:10] jay_: yep so 'gksu nautilus' should open a GUI file browser that can navigate to and allow opening of the files on that disk for testing [03:10] if gksu is installed [03:10] sunstar: see above where we did that part [03:10] ¬_¬ [03:11] in theory kruug you can properly install ubuntu onto an usb stick too [03:12] i popped the file manager but i cannot see a drive with my data in it [03:12] The only thing I can't do is use magic jack as I have the usb version and I have a Sprint Aircard no router but oh well [03:12] not like i can see in the shell [03:13] just google for "rescue linux" kruug [03:13] most of them can be installed onto an usb drive [03:13] and on most of them you have root [03:14] jay_: you have to browse to the path /mnt - this isn't Windows :) you don't get graphical entries for each drive [03:14] Ok, currently the way I know is to use Universal USB Installer to "install" Ubuntu onto the USB [03:14] but that goes for the "LiveUSB" approach [03:14] that's not install [03:14] indeed [03:14] you need two sticks [03:15] you'd have to either throw it on USB with persistence, or have a second flash drive to install from one to the other :D [03:15] the first one is the "live usb" one [03:15] which you install using that universal installer [03:15] the second one is used as "HDD" in the installation dialog when you boot using the first stick [03:15] it also works with just one stick [03:16] when you start with qemu for example [03:16] ah, that's a good point [03:16] I found the easiest way to install was to burn the ISO to dvd and change the setting in the bios for the system to see it [03:16] melissa_: my DVD drive on this laptop is eSATA external, and I left it at the office :/ [03:16] you give qemu-system-i386 -hda path-to-iso.iso -hdb /dev/sd-something [03:16] that should work I think [03:17] krug that could cause problems :) [03:17] perhaps replace -hda with -cdrom [03:17] Hmmm...I wonder if I could plug this stick into my ESXi server and pass-through to Debian to install from there [03:17] * daftykins shakes his head [03:17] jay_: found it yet? [03:17] I am not an expert or anywhere past a linux beginner so :) [03:17] daftykins ? [03:18] hi [03:18] Right now I am learning linux with fun. [03:18] melissa_: Linux is fun, and totally worth it! [03:19] krug as I think I mentioned before every time was running windows I wanted to be like Ernest T and break a few :) [03:19] hi [03:20] daftykins i am trying to but whenever i get near that drive it freezes [03:20] mmm sounds a bit sickly [03:21] ii know that why i want my data off it [03:21] i did sudo ls /mnt and it sits there [03:21] jay_: sudo apt-get install smartmontools && sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdb | pastebinit [03:21] daftykins are you going to be here for an hour or so? [03:21] nope [03:21] waiting for this baseball game to end then i'm gone [03:21] ok so hang on then [03:22] Years ago I used linux just briefly but I see linux has really advanced. [03:22] melissa_: still not a chat channel. you can chat aaaaall you like in #ubuntu-offtopic :) [03:23] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11106345/ [03:24] hmm good old seagate and their confusing SMART data [03:24] sorry daftykins not trying to be difficult [03:24] i wonder if there is a command i cna execute to jsut dump that entire partition to the new drive [03:24] is this a live session you're using? [03:24] we can see it so thats a start [03:25] no i installed ubuntu [03:25] i didnt waste time with livecds [03:25] well, are you planning on cracking the other one open to plug the second 4TB disk in internally? [03:25] not if we can get this one to show up [03:25] anyone know how long it may take for a ubuntu package to get updated? I'm waiting for bind 9.10.2 to be released. [03:25] ill just hook the external up via IP [03:25] and send it all over using samba i think [03:25] that should work [03:25] i've posted on launchpad a request for update but have not seen anyone comment in the past few hours since i posted it. [03:25] jay_: ok well i think you should reboot this machine and remount the drive, given the other failed attempts so far [03:26] get the other drive setup and running on the network [03:26] ok ill brb [03:26] its still in its box [03:26] im nowhere near that point [03:26] http://xozen.blogspot.pt/2015/05/meet-lakka-linux-os-that-turns-any-pc.html [03:26] last time iwaso n linux wasb ack when debian and suse first came out [03:26] ill reboot to start brb [03:26] Nrk9t1x: off topic no thanks [03:27] Nrk9t1x, please dont spam, thanks [03:27] its not spam, its an information [03:27] Nrk9t1x, yes you spam [03:28] some will like it to know about, others will not [03:28] that's life [03:28] it is the only reason why you come here. please leave === lenny is now known as lenny`atnight [03:30] If I'm adding a user, how do I set it so that they only have access to their own /home/username folder? [03:31] don't add him as admin [03:32] cothan: I am just adding the user as a regular user with adduser. [03:32] daftykins [03:32] useradd -m USERNAME [03:32] i am back with a fresh boot [03:32] OerHeks: Is that for me? :p [03:32] see man adduser [03:32] ok [03:32] thanks [03:32] drewbious, yes [03:33] jay_: cool, so repeat the mount command from earlier and confirm you see the drive contents again [03:34] i have problem with my graphic after update kernal [03:34] what kind? [03:34] my screen is randomly freeze [03:34] which card? [03:34] and has vertical green line [03:34] AMD/ATI 6470 [03:34] which driver? [03:35] x.org driver [03:35] give it a reinstall, i am more expecting 'fglrx' or 'radeon' though === bill is now known as hodee [03:36] i installed fglrx before. try to uninstall it as well. [03:36] Hi, does the Backup from Ubuntu 14.04 backs up everything?, Like, can it take a "snapshot" of my current Ubuntu? .. I want to make some changes to it, which I'm unsure of it will work or not.. so in case it goes wrong, I would like to restore it back to how it was now.. anyone? [03:37] daftykins all data is visible [03:37] ok got the new drive fired up yet? [03:37] no lol im not that fast stand by [03:37] like i said its been a long time for linux and me [03:37] chop chop! [03:37] brb [03:38] hello gentlemen, i’ve been spending the day setting up a virtual host on a ubuntu desktop machine. it’s all going well except it will not run php code. it displays static pages ok … but php doesnt execute. any ideas what i’m over looking ? === hodee is now known as redCable [03:39] an apache virtual host? [03:39] so a website [03:39] have you start php server like apache ? @munt [03:40] apache2 is alive and well … and directing web users where they need to go [03:40] doesn't apache do that autmatically cothan? [03:40] (when its instructed to) [03:40] php5 module is loaded and running [03:41] Munt: so libapache2-mod-php5 is on ok? sounds like you need to do that site config that tells apache to execute the PHP [03:41] php_admin_flag engine on ? [03:42] no idea. [03:42] new drive is plugggedi n and initializing daftykins [03:43] winner [03:43] its booted but i have to try to find it now [03:43] lol [03:43] install nmap [03:43] sudo nmap -sP 192.168.0.1-254 [03:43] if that's your home subnet [03:44] Munt, I did a video walk through here https://youtu.be/zQNbsCTFrAA?t=17m42s [03:44] thanks wafflejock i’ll look atthat now [03:44] Munt, can check the steps there, small change is in apache 2.4 vs 2.2 I was using /var/www is now /var/www/html for apache 2.4+ [03:44] ok doing [03:45] mines at var/www [03:45] after lamp-server^ install [03:45] Munt: which ubuntu server? [03:45] Desktop 15 [03:46] o0 [03:46] i have the same issue on debian [03:46] ok it says it scanned 12 hosts [03:46] searching [03:46] jay_: should show all their IPs too so then try and hit those with a web browser assuming that thing has a web admin [03:47] it does [03:47] im on it [03:47] does anybody here use fsarchiver on a regular basis? [03:48] Munt run, sudo a2enmod php5 [03:48] found the printer lol [03:48] wafflejock: done too … its loaded [03:48] Munt, if that works the module should be enabled [03:48] Munt, k then make a test.php with [03:48] Munt, restart apache as well just for good measure [03:48] Munt, sudo service apache2 restart [03:50] it was the 12th ip [03:50] mmm ok … that works, but my php file doesn’t i’ll have to look into that. thanks for helping me wafflejock [03:50] setting it up now [03:50] Munt, yup np [03:50] Dafty [03:50] wafflejock: my php files permmissions were all screwed up >,< [03:50] daftykins [03:51] hyperbuntu: type a question along with a highlight next time [03:51] otherwise you're just getting my attention so i can have my time wasted :) [03:51] Munt, ah yeah permissions gotchas happen a lot with web server setups [03:52] http://imgur.com/2lMkd54 with a fresh ubuntu iso i downloaded daftykins === gerald is now known as Guest76602 [03:52] wafflejock: my php says “Please verify proper write permissions to continue. If this persists, contact your web hosting provider and tell them that is_writable("/home/munt/Webs/bigshop/") returns FALSE in PHP.” [03:52] hyperbuntu: and the command i asked to run? :) [03:52] making the ip static daftykins [03:52] its initialized [03:53] Can you paste again please dafty [03:53] nevermind i don't have time to help anyway. [03:53] daftykins the drive is ready [03:53] Munt, yeah so whatever you're trying to run there needs the process running the php processing to have write access to the folder it specifies there [03:53] someone else might be free, hyperbuntu [03:53] what is your best hexditor, i use bless, but it don't let me save the same file when editing. then i use ghex, but can't copy and paste data to it. [03:53] can you suggest me a few app? [03:53] Munt, typically apache2 process and the modules will be run as www-data [03:54] jay_: alright so does it require a user+pass to mount via samba (e.g. map network drive on Windows) or does guest access work? [03:54] Munt, so chown www-data:www-data /home/munt/Webs/bigshop/ or whatver the path is should work [03:54] when i mount it in windows we use user pass [03:54] like mapping ad rive [03:54] Munt, typically I keep my stuff as some sub-folder of /var/www though so not sure if you'll hit other issues or not [03:54] wafflejock: is it a setting in the Virtualhosts conf ? the folder is symblinked to my www folder from home [03:54] jay_: was it just admin:something or did you just now have to set up a user? [03:54] i setup the user [03:54] ok [03:54] let me try that command thank you [03:55] i vguely remember samba shares [03:55] its been awhile [03:55] back then getting linux to talk to anything but itslef was a chore [03:55] jay_: in a terminal on the ubuntu machine, try "sudo mkdir /mnt/nas" then "sudo mount -t cifs //IP address/sharename /mnt/nas -o username=blah,password=blah" [03:55] Munt, yeah you'll want -r in there too for recursive, can check man chown for details, basically changes the ownership user:group for a folder/files [03:56] !permissions | Munt [03:56] Munt: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [03:56] thanks man [03:57] np [03:58] daftykins: like this [03:58] sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.16/Public /mnt/nas -o username=Jay ,password=Toshib@2020 [03:58] yeah [03:58] it spits out mnt help [03:58] ouch [03:59] hrmm wonder if i'm forgetting something [03:59] why is ubuntu so bloated [03:59] and what can be done [03:59] never mind i missed a space [03:59] ok its executed [04:00] ls /mnt/nas [04:00] grr ooops [04:00] ok i created a folder called olddrive [04:01] on the nas [04:01] Encapsulation: so installing an OS that's <5GB in 2015 is bloated huh? [04:01] LMAO [04:01] people today. [04:01] LoL [04:01] he obviously has not looked at windows8 lol [04:01] I do agree though ubuntu hesitates when launching apps, xubuntu didnt do that [04:02] jay_: "sudo rsync -arv --progress /mnt/disk /mnt/nas/olddrive" should work [04:02] daftykins, my server installs are 706MB ;) [04:02] yes where the key word is 'server' [04:02] also i doubt that's serving much [04:02] transfer has started [04:03] im guessing this willtake a little while [04:03] should start going through all the files and folders? [04:03] it is yes [04:03] and show copy progress [04:03] needed to add my user to the wwwdata group with a * [04:03] they're load balancers, dont need much of an install [04:03] with no mention of errors with any luck [04:03] and they serve a lot [04:03] yes each file is displaying with a percent and timer [04:03] \o/ [04:03] no errors and the new drive is chugging away [04:03] yep so depending on how much data you have, come back in x hours ;) [04:04] thanks so much daftykins [04:04] seriously [04:04] i really do miss linux [04:04] no problemo, to be honest it was all down to that post already existing [04:04] i'd have never thought about using some weird fuse ext2 mount for a drive claiming to be ext4 [04:04] i just bought an ultrabook with win8 on it and its a 1.9 pounder, want to run it strictly on linux but i would be lost [04:05] i need to run graphics design, a blog, a video editing suite, and email [04:05] but i knwo thats antoher forum [04:05] on a laptop? :S [04:05] yeah im a travel blogger daftykins [04:05] i live on the road [04:05] oh wow [04:05] fun life!

How can I fix this issue? [04:22] TheEternalAbyss: find a Plex channel and ask them for help [04:22] i have [04:23] i thought i'd ask here as well since.. you know.. i'm running ubuntu and it's a linux permissions thing [04:24] mmhmm [04:24] i was expecting your pastebin to actually show the file system permissions [04:26] I can give some info about that [04:28] essentially main user is theeternalabyss 775, group and other: theeternalabyss has read access [04:28] the plex user id is "plex" [04:29] i added plex id to the group theeternalabyss, but the plex server says permission denied essentially cause it won't read the file [04:30] i added yesterday a problem with ubuntu and windows 8. Bing [04:30] has any one a solution? [04:31] added it where? [04:32] through terminal [04:32] that wasn't to you [04:33] oh.. [04:33] i dont now where i can find my qestion [04:36] rigobert_: this is not an ask, leave, come back later thing [04:37] i alsomost have my server configured … i think. i can get php to run, but it doesnt look right. https://www.dropbox.com/s/wx3xsw5xmz5ylje/Screenshot%202015-05-13%2005.35.52.png?dl=0 the top “import buddy” is how it looks on my server. the bottom is how it /should/ look [04:37] any ideas what might cause that sort of behaviour ? [04:38] the images are encoded in the importbuddy.php file [04:38] i see evidence of webmin [04:39] !webmin [04:39] webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. [04:39] daftykins: yes its got webmin installed … >,< [04:40] are you just dumping and restoring a MySQL database? [04:40] more or less [04:40] i don't see the need for all these products and junk [04:41] i did mine recently to migrate to trusty server, using mysqldump [04:41] I’m concerned that this php file is not running correctly at all [04:41] daftykins: i am quite ignornat to how to use linux [04:41] im only doing what i read online [04:41] i was learning too [04:41] can someone help me? I cannot get the trash to permanently delete... I tried rm -rf in terminal and it doesn't work. [04:41] i don't know what's up there but maybe apache logs will help [04:45] any ideas to help? [04:48] any one else new to #linux and #ubuntu ? [04:48] not particularly new, but far from expert here [04:49] and not super active on the channels [04:49] I have had my new laptop for about 2 weeks. I have never used linux nor ubuntu before [04:51] I have this: "jsharpe ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" in my sudoers file (saved w/o syntax errors) and yet that user still is prompted for a password every time they sudo. any ideas why? [04:51] can anyone help with my issue? trying to permanently delete my trash... not working interminal. [04:54] diuneigh, did you sudo rm -rf [04:54] yes... but it doesn't work. [04:55] when I use nautilus it takes "forever" to prepare... apparently there are 33K + files in the trash but I can't see them in terminal or nautilus. any thoughts? [04:56] diuneigh, cd ~/.local/share/Trash/files [04:57] diuneigh, rm -rf * [04:57] should do it [04:57] I'll try it... [04:58] I did it and it doesn't show a prompt.. it just goes to a "blank" line. does that make sense? [04:58] after I put in the code.. [04:59] it should show a prompt [04:59] it shouldn't have any output but should go back to the prompt [04:59] open another terminal and try to ls -al ~/.local/share/Trash/files [04:59] it didn't go back to the prompt.... just showing a blinking cursor.. [05:00] diuneigh, run the ls -al a couple of times see if the file count is going down [05:00] diuneigh, if not verify the files are owned by your user in the output from ls -al [05:01] Todays ubuntu poll, What software do you like to use to do analysis on network traffic to your server? [05:01] wow.. 517664 files.... [05:01] heh [05:01] had a little spring cleaning? [05:01] I guess.. [05:01] files count is not decreasing... stays the same.. [05:02] diuneigh, does it look like they're owned by your user? [05:02] yes.. [05:02] all except for one dir... it is root.. [05:03] diuneigh, well can try throwing a sudo before the rm -rf to be sure it can delete that dir as well, everything in there should be owned by you from what I saw of my own [05:03] figured it would just bail on that folder though [05:04] well i'm still stumped [05:05] still no luck... using sudo.. it just goes to a blinking cursor on the next line.. [05:06] i can't see any of the files though in terminal or nautilus... [05:08] diuneigh, you mean ls -al is reporting 0 files now? [05:08] when i use last i see : "reboot system boot 3.2.0-4-amd64 Sun May 10 19:24 - 00:06 (2+04:41) " in result , why my system is rebooted ? [05:09] nope.. still at 517644 files.... I know that my inodes is at 100%.. [05:09] 517664 files... didn't budge. [05:11] 15.04 64bit boot with live usb and select without install(test mode), after reboot, all the settings are dispear? is it normal? I try 32 bit version with same way, and all the changes can be saved. Any one has suggestion? [05:12] diuneigh, do you have the option to boot from live media mount the drive and try to delete that way? [05:12] diuneigh, if you haven't tried rebooting and giving it another try would do that first, then try a live media if possible [05:13] I've rebooted multiple times and even tried the "safe mode" to repair and clean up space... it would alwyas hang.. [05:13] what isthe live media mount? [05:14] who do we determine which application xdg-open would open given a mimetype ? [05:14] *how [05:14] diuneigh, just mean using a boot CD (install CD) going into the "try out linux" mode then mount the drive to some folder just open it if it's shown and do it from there so it isn't using anything in your main system when you're deleting the files [05:15] ah... ok... I'll try that.. [05:15] thanks.. [05:15] i am tring to add j2ee in my eclipse what should i write in type filter text? [05:16] diuneigh, yeah np good luck, have had the out of disk space problem before with a runaway log file and couldn't install anything to find the offending file, but not sure exactly about what's stopping your system from deleting those files [05:16] can any one help me? [05:17] admin3, try #java or #eclipse or ##programming [05:17] what is a good dvd shrink alternative on gnu/linux?

[05:22] i installed plex on a fresh ubuntu 15 install. and it won't read my FAT32 formatted HDs where all my media is [05:23] i added plex to authorized group that should have access to those files in permissions yet still nothing [05:23] you show the ls -al of the folders and files you're trying to share?

[05:28] diuneigh, yeah, pop open a terminal and run lsblk [05:28] diuneigh, that should show you all your "block devices" so your HDD [05:28] and should show if it's mounted somewhere where that is [05:28] MTA postfix/send mail is installed.

I can access the files and such just fine through ubuntu's GUI, but plex asks me to add folders through the web console they have (just a browse to and click window) and it keeps failing [05:31] diuneigh, then, lsblk | pastebinit [05:31] diuneigh, and throw the URL here so I can take a quick look [05:31] will just show your drive sizes and stuff nothing personal in there [05:31] wafflejock: done [05:32] diuneigh, need the pastebin URL it gave you [05:32] TheEternalAbyss, k so plex is running as "plex" ? [05:32] wafflejock: done [05:32] TheEternalAbyss, you confirm this with ps aux | grep plex [05:32] yes, that is the user id wafflejock, let me run that [05:33] TheEternalAbyss, it should show the process and the user info for the process... oh actually needs sudo I think for the ps aux maybe to list users [05:33] didn't ask for sudo [05:33] wafflejock: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11107849/ [05:33] yes i see plex there [05:33] TheEternalAbyss, assuming it's "plex" you can do , "groups plex" to get the groups plex is in, and see if plex is in the theeternalabyss group [05:34] wafflejock: it's sdc6 [05:34] it's in plex theeternalabyss [05:35] diuneigh, yeah k so it's mounted already just cd /media/ubuntu/f5248fb9-f970-40a2-a606-264ea8d74 [05:35] TheEternalAbyss, so you see theeternalabyss when you do groups plex? [05:35] I have 7GB of freespace (unallocated) and yet I can't extend sda1. sda2 and 5 (extended and swap) are both locked. V [05:35] yes i do [05:36] TheEternalAbyss, okay maybe can try just setting the permissions across that whole folder and sub-folders if it's all just media in there anyhow [05:37] yea I tried that as root changnign it all to 775 [05:37] i got no errors yet permissions are as you see them [05:37] changing* [05:38] wafflejock: permission denied... [05:39] TheEternalAbyss, can sudo chown theeternalabyss:theeternalabyss -R /media/theeternalabyss/SEAGATEM && sudo chmod ug+r -R /media/theeternalabyss/SEAGATEM [05:39] ok i'll try it on moment [05:40] I'm completely out of hdd space [05:40] diuneigh, try sudo -s [05:40] Can I move locked paritions? [05:40] partitions* [05:41] diuneigh, should drop you in a root terminal, not sure if it will prompt for a password but try just hitting enter [05:41] yes.. in root now... but not seeing the dirs... [05:41] wafflejock: see line above [05:41] diuneigh, if you cd /media and ls -al you see anything in there? [05:42] seems strange [05:42] yes.. I can go all the way to the mounted drive but in the mounted drive I cannot find .local [05:43] diuneigh, should be in /home/username/.local [05:43] yes.. I can go all the way to the mounted drive but in the mounted drive I cannot find .local [05:43] I mean within that /media/ubuntu/whatever/home/username/.local [05:44] it's processing the command (there are lots of files..) [05:44] if not that might be the wrong partition cause one of them has to have the /home/username/.local file in it [05:44] wafflejock: Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop README.txt [05:44] that's all I see.. no other dirs.. [05:45] hmm k well cat README.txt === Zhrebec is now known as AtuM [05:45] figured since it had a mount point there we didn't need to do anything else [05:45] ok it completed [05:45] TheEternalAbyss, cross fingers and use your best hoping mechanisms [05:46] ls -al doesn't seem to show any difference.. [05:46] I need water... and sleep soon [05:46] wafflejock: oh.. I forgot that I encrypted the drive... [05:46] TheEternalAbyss, yeah it looked okay from the base directory perspective to me but figured a recursive call on everything in the media can't hurt [05:46] diuneigh, ah okay [05:46] diuneigh, that complicates it [05:47] well I'll see if plex reads it now [05:47] When I try to unmount sda2/5 it says they're not mounted [05:47] despite the partitions being locked [05:47] no nothing.. [05:48] wafflejock... that's great... impossible or just complicated? [05:49] i don't understand this at all.. [05:50] diuneigh, this should do it http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/utopic/en/man1/ecryptfs-recover-private.1.html but I haven't used it [05:51] diuneigh, I value the simplicity of not encrypting over the security of encrypting my personal stuff so haven't used it myself [05:51] wafflejock.. I'll read it.. thanks.. [05:51] TheEternalAbyss, yeah sorry dunno about plex itself to help any further just general file permissions things, so Plex literally tells you it can't read the files? [05:52] I used 'mail -s "subject" emailaddress and it worked. what do I need to send emails via php scripts? (I mean on server side) [05:52] it says it can't find any media and when i click on y HD it shows no folders or files [05:52] Voyage, you can just use the "mail" function [05:52] so in the eyes of Plex, it seems nothing [05:52] sees* [05:52] TheEternalAbyss, very strange [05:53] i am at a loss [05:53] "busy at least one logical partition is mounted" [05:53] TheEternalAbyss: what user is plex running as? [05:53] plex [05:53] that's the id [05:54] i appreciate the efforts though wafflejock [05:54] :/ [05:55] TheEternalAbyss: And the folder you're trying to have it read, is that an ntfs drive automatically mounted as your regular user? [05:55] automounted by ubuntu FAT32 [05:55] TheEternalAbyss, np since it's fat32 I wonder if the permissions despite appearing to show there are actually working correctly, maybe check out the stuff on this page (is for suse but believe the mount command is the same and shows mounting a fat partition with -uid and -gid https://www.suse.com/communities/conversations/manually-mounting-a-usb-flash-drive-in-linux/ [05:56] wafflejock, well need to send by php script....... [05:56] Voyage, yeah http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php [05:57] i could try that wafflejock [05:57] TheEternalAbyss: by default it'll automount with only user permissions, so have a look at the link wafflejock gave you. if it's a permanent solution you're better off mounting the drive manually in !fstab [05:58] wafflejock, so if 'mail -s "subject" emailaddress and it worked. Thats all I need to send emails via php? [05:58] ... and if it's permanent, you're better off using ext4 :p [05:58] Voyage, yeah the mail function in PHP should use the mail command on the system so that should work fine too at this point [05:58] Voyage, a few things you'll run into if you're actually using this as a mail server though are DKIM and SPF [05:59] Voyage, would check those out so you don't get marked as SPAM also some other places you can check to make sure your server doesn't get blacklisted [06:00] lfstab.. ok [06:00] Voyage, also if you haven't already you probably want to get SpamAssasin installed on there to mark bad incoming e-mails if you plan on receiving messages as well [06:00] !fstab | TheEternalAbyss [06:00] TheEternalAbyss: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [06:00] oh fstab ok [06:01] wafflejock, thanks! [06:03] Hey [06:03] I was in earlier and nobody was able to answer my question [06:03] I am trying to get ubuntu to play nicely with a high res monitor [06:03] Voyage, yeah np [06:03] I am using i3 [06:04] so I cannot just scale up the size of text and items through the unity-control center [06:04] coax: It's much easier if you type your question on _one_ line [06:04] hateball: good point [06:05] coax, you have unity tweak tool installed? [06:05] That pretty much sums it up [06:05] Yeah, I tried changing settings in there [06:05] and it doesn't seem to do anything [06:05] coax, you try the "Scaling factor" in fonts [06:05] seems to work here but I'm on gnome [06:05] In unity-tweak-tool? [06:05] eh I was guessing it's in gnome tweak tool [06:05] Yeah [06:06] So should that take effect immediately? [06:06] yeah it does here just scaling factor at 1.0 [06:06] I just bumped to 1.1 and 1.2 though and everything gets very noticeably bigger [06:06] Nothing changes for me [06:06] I am assuming because I am in i3 and that uses x ...? [06:07] yeah doesn't seem to change icon sizes at all I've got an i7 in this laptop but the GPU is just Intel HD 4000 so nothing super fancy there [06:07] Nothing changes for me [06:07] I have it set to 1.5 and most text is still too small to read easily. [06:09] coax, yeah not sure what to tell ya I'm not too sure any of the desktop environments have totally handled high DPI and even then not all the apps [06:10] I also think I borked my gnome desktop [06:10] coax, but maybe try KDE or Gnome and see if they're any better [06:10] when I try to log in it generally crashes :p [06:10] heh yeah that's probably not gonna work then :) [06:10] can try to --reinstall with apt-get [06:11] sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop --reinstall [06:11] turned on proprietary graphics driver -it's ati card, and system got unresponsive [06:11] !nomodeset | hieronemus001 [06:11] hieronemus001: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen.

[06:11] Are you sure it's called gnome-desktop [06:12] coax, might be gnome-desktop-environment [06:12] ubuntu-gnome-desktop [06:13] after reboot all seems fine - i'll stick with fglrx, wait&see [06:14] says permission denied when I try to mount it manually [06:14] hold up let me try something [06:14] So, I don't even have ubuntu-gnome-desktop installed.

[07:23] !chmod | TheEternalAbyss [07:23] TheEternalAbyss: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [07:23] chmod is not what you use to change ownership with, it's chown [07:24] yes chown...I am asking since that is default mounting directories, if i change ownership will i mess it up for other external devices [07:24] when mounting them [07:25] hateball: chown and chmod gives the same trigger url [07:25] TheEternalAbyss: I was under the impression you had mounted this external device in fstab, for the plex user? [07:25] i did [07:25] it still won't read my files [07:26] so i searched a bit online and found someone mentioning that the enter-tree was the problem [07:28] so, I'm having some weird issues with the current ubuntu; Some websites are slow to difficult to load, and ssh over a VPN is next to impossible, I suspect the MTU size is an issue, but, other than trial and error, I can't find a solution. So.. is there an easy way? [07:30] so... will changing those permissions fuck things up? [07:31] Hello. :) I was wondering, is there a way to change the brightness of your LCD while in TTY? I can change the brightness of the LCD normally, but as soon as I am using the terminal CTRL+ALT+F1 it is very bright again. I only ask because I like using screen's split mode with two terminals and working from the command line. Thanks! :) [07:32] For further clarification, the function key doesn't work from the TTY [07:41] finally [07:41] it works [07:41] thanks. i'm out [07:42] I am looking for something to let me lock an application! for example I would like to lock my Gome on a screen with button like close one in title bar which protect the locked app to get focus via alt-tab or alike ways... [07:43] AliRezaTaleghani: put it in another workspace maybe? [07:43] :"> [07:43] as an axample.. [07:44] there are some text I noted in gedit [07:44] I just wana have them as a checklist in my screen [07:44] Guys is there a way to set every new connection (wireless or ethernet) to use different DNS servers by default? [07:45] AliRezaTaleghani: so you dont want it locked, you just want it out of alt+tab and the taskbar [07:45] !dns | Inoki [07:45] Inoki: To set up a Domain Name Service see the !serverguide - https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/dns.html [07:45] or an apecific terminal which is doing some compiles and I would not like to suddenly break it ;-) [07:46] EriC^: yep I don't have any concern on the solution, but it's what I faced with daily ;-) and m looking for a way [07:49] lotuspsychje: appreciated, but as I see that's for servers mostly. I am running a personal computer and all I want is whenever I connect to a new network it would automatically have a set of added custom DNS servers to avoid censroship. [07:51] AliRezaTaleghani: I dont use Unity myself, but dont you have an option to "always keep on top" if you rightclick the title bar? [07:52] yep exactly [07:52] I like some thing like it to let me poll an application out of alt-tab ring... [07:53] Is there a word for when you make a partition available for mounting (i.e. show up in your file manager sidebar)? e.g. "I [verbed] the partition without actually mounting it" [07:55] nvm, I found a more on-topic place to ask, sorry about that [08:00] I HATE NIGGERS [08:00] YOU CAN'T BAN ME KLOERI [08:00] YOU TRIED KLINING ME YESTERDAY AND FAILED [08:00] YOU KLINED ME 40 TIMES [08:00] FUCKING NIGGER [08:06] <`hypermist`> can i have some with transmission-remote [08:07] how do I find out the root password of my computer?

[08:13] Jnixx I am trying to decide if setting up my new ultrabook would be better in linux or windows, ultimately i will go with a dual boot if it can be done on this system [08:13] What's the ultrabook? [08:13] model [08:14] dualboot should be not an issue [08:14] depends on what windows OS you have/will have [08:14] I need alternatives for the following software, (adobe audition, photoshop, cyberlink powerdirector, ) [08:14] what do they do? [08:14] and GIMP can replace photoshop [08:14] i want to run 7 ultimate and linux ubuntu or whatever would be friendliest [08:14] cool [08:14] well ubuntu is a good place to start [08:14] jay_ most likely the ultrabook will work fine on Ubuntu. [08:14] !dualboot [08:14] Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot [08:14] It can, but you'll need to get used to it for a bit. [08:15] The only trouble can be using UEFI [08:15] likley will be fine with any option you take [08:15] dual boot, only windows or only ubuntu, should be fine tierh way [08:15] install the windows. then shrink the windows partition to make space for ubuntu. then install ubuntu into own partitions in the new free space [08:15] lol seems so easy [08:15] UEFI should be fine. you can normally disable secure boot and then everything will work. you shouldn't have any problems. [08:15] apprently this ultrabook model doesnt play friendly with other OSes [08:15] jay_ model?? [08:16] It has windows 8 on it right now which is going bye bye [08:16] ideapad U310 [08:16] it has atouch screen [08:16] if you want to dual boot, then install win7 then ubuntu and you should be fine [08:16] can i install ubuntu and win7 on the ssd [08:16] I dual boot Windows 8.1 and Debian on a dell laptop with UEFI, no problems for me at least [08:16] jay_: how big is the ssd? [08:16] this has a 26 gb ssd and a 500 gb drive [08:16] So what k11 suggested. Install Windows. THen shrink the windows partition. THen install Ubuntu on that unused space. [08:17] Hello ;) [08:17] jay_: 26GB is too small for windows and something else [08:17] how about drivers [08:17] oh ok [08:17] just wipe hdd to zero, (removing win8), then install windows, then ubuntu [08:17] if you got 500 gb hdd you shoudl be fine with space [08:17] jay_: ubuntu only would match on the small ssd. [08:17] ubuntu is 26gb? [08:17] jay_ 26GB is almost too small for Windows. Why so small? [08:18] its only used to cache to make things go faster [08:18] i have no idea why they set it up like that [08:18] you would have to ask lenovo [08:18] hello I just installed the free version of nagios on ubuntu 14.04 and configured nsclient on a windows vista...I can monitor the use of resources my windows machine perform in real time but I would like to add something: I would like to monitor the status and know when the system is suspended how would I achieve this? thanks [08:18] jay_: ubuntu (system only) fits on something around 7-10GB. but windows uses too much , so it wount fit both on the ssd part [08:19] just fit into hdd [08:19] hello! I get the following message when I try to ssh in to a server "fatal: Write failed: Connection reset by peer" in the auth.log file on the server [08:19] what could be wrong?

(Sry 4 my bad eng.) === wdbot is now known as Celphish [08:21] I recommend Putty [08:21] or other way around, windows and then ubuntu in vm [08:22] For connect to your server [08:22] Visitor: Well that's not really going to fix bug #1 ;) [08:22] bug 1 in Ubuntu Malaysia LoCo Team "Microsoft has a majority market share" [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1 [08:22] zzarr: ssh client has a verbose mode perhaps will give you better idea what is going on ssh -v user@host -p port [08:23] Jay_ it's also worth mentioning that Linux doesn't have the best support for Blu-Ray. You mentioned Cyberlink, so it's possible that you might not be able to play the latest new released blu-ray film. [08:23] This is due to the closed source nature of the movie industry and the way they encrypt blu-ray content. [08:23] I get "Timeout waiting for reply from server." [08:24] I'm trying to use QSsh in Qt [08:24] zzarr: I recomend Putty for this. [08:24] well the openssh client works fine [08:24] zzarr: does "ssh" from treminal work? [08:25] k1l: yes [08:25] zzarr: see if the qssh can log or make a verbose output. [08:25] okey [08:25] zzarr: like starting it from the terminal and see if it spits errors in the terminal [08:26] there's a terminal in the Qt environment === mate is now known as Guest23875 [08:31] Hello guys anyone knows on ubuntu mate if I can get rid of the borders on left and right I want to scroll with the we browser but if I go on the edge then It doesn't scroll cause it has got a bit of space/ [08:33] when I set a timeout on the ssh connection my application crashes [08:33] zzarr: maybe ask the qssh guys since that seems a special issue with that client [08:34] yes, will do [08:34] Jnixx sorry iwandered off, are you saying install ubuntu on the ssd and then run windows directly in a VM from linux? [08:34] jay_: dualboot is fine [08:35] jay_ It was Visitor who mentioned a VM [08:35] I have no idea how to reach them though [08:35] jay_ I said that playing Blu-ray films on any Linux distribution could be troublesom [08:36] sorry guys when two people are talking it can get confusing [08:36] to clarify the cyberlink was NOT for watching movies, i create them [08:36] what i do is i travel to exotic places across the world and film movies and conduct interviews [08:37] then i will use my laptop to put them together and redner them for production [08:37] i dont create or watch blu ray, tbh i think its another wasted technology [08:37] but thats just me [08:38] Why "wasted" seems to get used alot :P [08:38] LOL [08:38] You can use http://www.openshot.org/ to make movie on Linux [08:38] im a minimilast guys, i travel out of a backpack and panniers, i meet film crews when i get to the locations, my whole life is under 50 pounds lol [08:38] привэт пагни!

[08:46] in limit ways, yes. but see it as a testing setup.

[09:40] acosonic: PHP should drop some trigget/event that should be picked up by a safely-running background process to do the thing you want (run the script) [09:40] *trigger [09:41] I'm running post-commit hook as www-data user, and I need to run svn-update in other user's public_html, but it's owned by that user [09:41] you could write a small daemon that is running as the user, that your webapp asks to do the svn update [09:42] MrElendig, perhap's that's right choice, www-data leaves some flag, daemon picks that flag, updates, deletes the flag... [09:42] or just use sudo (but be carefull, a lot of svn commands can be exploited to gain a shell) [09:43] I'm trying to avoid adding www-data to sudoers, currently I have cron job updating server every 15 mins... I guess I'll leave it that way since I can't find any other solution except programming daemon or [09:43] adding www-data to sudoers... [09:44] or just use something else than php, that allows you to run the webapp as the correct user in the first place [09:44] :p [09:44] I'm not running php, I'm running svn server trough web-dav apache plugin [09:45] can any one help me [09:45] ?

Just type file followed by the path to your file [11:18] mactzu and drop the caps, it's impolite to shout [11:18] MonkeyDust: really ? dpkg is kinda a debian/ubuntu thing [11:18] velef: that's not really what I'm asking, most of those dotfiles are xml and text files, but I have no idea whether I still need them or not. [11:19] just trying to be heard amongst the windows comments [11:19] mactzu: man dpkg [11:20] mactzu as soon as someone has the answer, they will give it to you [11:20] barnex: how could we know? please tell us more about these files [11:20] where did you find them [11:21] velef: Like I said, I'm trying to rid my home of old dot-files and dot-folders, that are no longer needed, and there are houndreds I have and I'm looking for a way to identify what they do and whether I need them. Wondering if there's a site or command that does that. [11:21] mactzu, in few words it's like re-run the installation again [11:22] EricC^^: thanks I have read it, but my issue is that i am loading a service at startup and it is not working. in my many tries to get it working I have run dkpg reconfig. THe package runs fine after then but I lose it on reboot. so dkpg is doing something after it edits the file that is making the package run correctly [11:22] barnex: most dotfiles can be nuked, but you will lose the configuration options for whatever program uses them. If they are named after a program you no longer use, _back_it_up_, delete it and (if no ill effects) remove the backup. Don _not_ delete .Xauthority [11:22] mcphail: is there a list of ones that cannot be nuked? [11:23] barnex: depends on which programs you have installed [11:23] heh, I had all of them at some point I think, since this homedir survived over 10 years [11:23] The package I am Having issues with is lirc [11:23] currently I care about gnome and ubuntu working [11:23] barnex: no, of course not. There are 10s of thousands of packages you can install. Any one of them can create a dotfile. No list would be comprehensive [11:23] barnex: maybe you could delete them based on the last modified time or time created or something [11:24] if a file in a folder gets modified, does the modified time on folder change? [11:24] barnex: did you move them from another home dir you had? [11:24] barnex: when a new user account is created, it is "bare" of dotfiles. GNOME etc will recreate whatever they need: you'll simply lose the configuration [11:24] EriC^^: yeah, moved them since mandriva 10 :3 [11:24] ioria: I have purge and installed the package [11:24] barnex: ok, did it have a different username? [11:25] nah, same username through the years [11:25] every time I change systems I want to keep my configs and that lead to the mess [11:25] barnex: 10 years you say [11:25] mactzu, i did't mean, that . meant the main installation [11:27] ioria: this is a fresh system 15.04 install on sunday [11:27] barnex: nevermind i was thinking maybe being created on ext3 or something might help [11:27] to weed them out [11:27] !find lirc [11:27] Found: liblircclient-dev, liblircclient0, pulseaudio-module-lirc, pulseaudio-module-lirc-dbg, banshee-extension-lirc, freevo-lirc, gnash-ext-lirc, gnome-lirc-properties, inputlirc, kdelirc (and 4 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=lirc&searchon=names&suite=vivid§ion=all [11:28] heh, I think I'll just move everything-dot somewhere and see what fails [11:28] irc means infra-red remote control, here [11:28] mactzu, seems default [11:28] * lordramus new to this thing [11:28] ioria: yep I have in install and I can get singal with irw. but the only I seem to get it working in other app vlc kodi/xbmc is after dkpg reconfig [11:28] guys i try to install linux debian from usb but i get: Failed to load ldlinux.c32 [11:29] ioria default az baby !!

[12:02] *come === joao_ is now known as Mete- [12:03] april 2016, 16.04 [12:03] SohamG: there isn't one [12:03] SohamG, it's not. 5G is currently in development though, to keep networks busy with something [12:04] SohamG, sorry, was just discussing LTE networks. duh :/ LTS is 16.04, then 18.04 and so forth [12:04] iptable: so 15.04 isnt LTS and there wont be a 15.xx LTS? [12:05] you confused me for a sec :P [12:05] SohamG: LTS are release every 2 years, the previous one was 14.04 so the next one is 16.04 [12:05] SohamG, no, there will not be 15.xx LTS. LTS comes out every 2 years. so 14.04 LTS + 2 = 16.04 LTS [12:05] aahh [12:05] SohamG, the 14.04 refers to dates, nice versioning. 2016.April [12:06] SohamG, 2014.April release was also LTS, 2016.april will be too [12:06] I thought every version had a LTS! [12:06] Thanks for letting me know! [12:06] So is it worth updating from 14.04 to 15.04? [12:07] not if you want LTS [12:07] SohamG: depends if you really want/need to [12:08] If it'll increase overall speed/fluidity..... [12:08] SohamG: if you do want to upgrade then you'd need to go to 14.10 first [12:08] Really?! [12:08] SohamG, if it's your desktop and you want cutting edge, go for 15.04. If you want long term support as you don't want to reinstall often (mostly servers have this requirement), stay on 14.04 [12:09] that very much dep on whats running on your node .. 15.04 comes with systemd [12:09] so thats on its own is worth it [12:09] yeah i've heard systemd is faster... [12:09] SohamG, if you have stuff kernel-related you could have problems because the kernel is different [12:09] SohamG, I'm reinstalling a fresh install to 15.04 in a few days. I was on 14.10 so far. my laptop is too new for the drivers in 14.04 and I couldn't be bothered to backport. [12:09] kernel can be updated by hand [12:09] so thats not a “blocker” [12:10] SohamG, my servers are 14.04. I will not be reinstalling for another 3 years or so. so there, depends on what you need. [12:10] iptable: whats on your servers? [12:10] .. coreos does a good job in keeping the boxes uptodate [12:10] I just want a plane desktop that I can do geeky stuff with, if need be.....one of the reasons why I switched from win7 [12:10] if yo/u are able to containerize it .. [12:10] thats worth a shot [12:11] pkircher, websites, email server, owncloud, dns, dhcp, dlna etc. you know, home stuff [12:11] meh mailservers and you wont update for 2-3 years [12:11] security .. [12:11] doh [12:11] SohamG, plane desktop? try ubuntu gnome, or xubuntu [12:12] And I am looking to update because I am getting sick of gnome 3 :P [12:12] pkircher, no, I said I will not reinstall [12:12] I wanna give unity a try [12:12] never used it... [12:12] still killing the sec holes in a mailserver [12:12] pkircher, updates run daily with snapshots before update for rollbacks [12:12] is a fulltime job [12:12] lol [12:12] SohamG: 14.04 has unity [12:13] Hello [12:13] Yes I know!... [12:13] I wanted to try out 15.04 for the spped [12:13] *speed, [12:13] pkircher, hence my emails first go through latest postfix, handover to latest exim and hand over to my final zimbra mail server. there, security holes closed.

[12:15] Garheade : I am using 14.04 [12:15] The developer on Github says: so it's solved for 0.5, it's a pity ubuntu 14.04 LTS still ships something based on 0.4. [12:15] iptable, did you use clamav or amavis ? [12:15] Is 15.04 known to have issues with nvidia gpu's [12:16] ioria, yes, using amavis, clamav, spamassassin, dspam, razor, pyzor and bayesian [12:16] pynthon: 0.5 is available for vivid [12:16] iptable, have you ever had problem with clamav and amavis updatings ? [12:17] I have no time & date in gnome-fallback-compiz [12:17] ioria, not once. for some reason ocasionally I have to nuke the clamav DB and manually run an update to redownload. amavis not a problem. ALWAYS backup configs though, amavis sometimes feels adventurous during updates [12:17] for package update (apt-get), no, always works [12:17] Garheade : I am a linux noob so please forgive my ignorance but Vivid is Ubuntu 15.05 right?

[13:35] k1l: Indeed they are - vbox guest additions installed properly [13:36] k1l: What is surprising is, apart from one user, everyone else can login without problems [13:37] hi [13:37] okay i will google it [13:37] sure [13:38] centos 7 [13:38] i know this isnt exactly an ubuntu question, but how do you make xchat open urls on double click? === Guest63055 is now known as rajesh-p [13:38] its been driving me nuts and i just thought to finally ask someone [13:38] reg xubuntu [13:38] any idea [13:39] asdfghdn1: what is your ubuntu support question? [13:39] to setup nginx on it [13:40] !nginx [13:40] asdfghdn1: what about that? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Nginx [13:40] Hi all, anyone know of a program which edits the information of audio files, as well as allowing their album covers to appear in place of the actual files? [13:41] nginx with php-fpm [13:41] give me suitable link [13:41] how to install timeviwer in ubuntu 15.04 64 bit error instalation [13:42] bluewolf: kid3 is in the software center [13:42] i have never personally used it but its there [13:42] Bluewolf, Puddletag will edit music file tags. As for the other, I'm not sure [13:42] there is also tagtool [13:43] kid3 is kde though [13:43] Puddletag can use Amazon's music DB to fix dodgy tags. [13:43] As well as musicbrainz and several others. [13:43] Not seen kid3... Perhaps should look [13:43] BubbaGrace: Audacity, does that also do that? [13:43] ill have to look into that myself. I used to let exaile do that for me when I cared about that kind of stuff [13:44] audacity? no [13:44] thats an audio editor [13:44] Exactly, so it should allow one to save the information right? [13:44] puddletag looks much better than kid3 [13:45] yea it allows you to edit idv tags, but its not exactly user friendly or has any sort of bulk actions [13:45] Grrr--- reboot... k-button gone all strange. [13:45] okay so puddletag then? [13:46] what exactly are you trying to do? If you arent cutting audio or recording dont use audacity for that [13:46] puddletag looks the best to me [13:48] what do people use for music players these days? Im sure there has to be a better option than exaile right?

[13:49] Hey folks have you got any idea why my x11vnc server on my ubuntu desktop 15 VM cant be accessed ? it shows up in the bonjor list but spits out connection refused in all the clients im testing it in === xubuntu is now known as Guest83166 [13:49] #ubuntu-br [13:49] BubbaGrace, I just like my music in order. Specifically it information, artist, album and so on. I hate redoing everything each time I reinstall, sitting an changing all that information. So I want I program which will allow me to make those changes and save them as such. [13:49] BubbaGrace: i gave up on rhythmbox and such and hear radiotray or from my mobile-phone running my google music app. :) [13:50] radiotray huh [13:50] * basil2x uses IDJC to listen to music... also to internet JD [13:50] DJ* [13:50] that any good? I seen it before but thought it would just be cheesy online streams. Does it have real FM channels? [13:51] BubbaGrace: for streams. [13:51] but my fm radio stations provide streams so i hear them with that [13:51] right of course they will be streams. but how is the selection say compared to tunein? [13:51] The version of IDJC in the repos is old and crusty. Build the latest git. [13:52] basil2x just like avidemux. It took me a bunch of renecoded videos to realize the repo version is old as hell and sucks with h264 [13:53] avidemux is very sad recently [13:53] kdenlive is better, and since kdenlive is tragic, that's sad. [13:53] the version in the repos cannot handle vbr audio at all. it will be out of sync every time [13:55] cinelerra is best... until it gives up and explodes without warning. [13:58] man this music on the cinelerra site is weird [13:58] im going to check it out though. thanks for the suggestion [14:01] BubbaGrace: Thanks for the help === lenny`atnight is now known as lenny [14:03] cinelerra looks like a real pain to get running [14:10] gfh [14:11] hola [14:12] !es [14:12] En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. [14:14] right I'm having trouble with partitions. lots of reading, not much success. [14:15] I'm making a dual boot with win7 (because) [14:15] so I have a primary (system) partition (because, windows) [14:15] and a NTFS win partition which is the main windows one [14:16] and I have one more for an encrypted dropbox area which has decided it's also going to be primary [14:16] Hi guys, i'm a KDE lover but since kubuntu took plasma 5 i find it very green for my needs (even if it's beautiful as hell...). I'm thinking about giving a chance to ubuntu unity. I'd like to try both unity and cinnamon and so, is there any imcompatibility installing ubuntu unity and then adding cinnamon from ppa? [14:16] now I want to delegate some space to ubuntu (split between home slash and swap) and have the rest left to spare shareable drive space [14:16] but win7 says I have run out of partitions [14:16] so how can I make it happen? :/ [14:17] NikLP: you can only have 4 primary partitions [14:17] NikLP: screenshot diskmanager [14:17] k1l: yes exactly. but I had this exact setup before with no issues, so how can I make the ubuntu installer use extended partitions or something? [14:17] teward: in win7? [14:18] I deleted the ubuntu partitions again cos I figured I would have to use an extended partition [14:18] NikLP: yes, but k1l can help you more, at this second i have to fix a wifi problem (complex networks are complex) [14:18] kk [14:19] NikLP: so we still dont know what exact partitions you actually got now [14:19] k1l: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/72790/diskmanager.PNG [14:19] NikLP: and a screenshot of the Disk Manager on Windows might help, or gparted from a liveusb/livecd [14:19] ^^ [14:20] holo [14:20] just do the partitioning you would like there. like making an extended one and then put /, /home (and maybe swap) into that. [14:20] then just direct the installer to use that partitions [14:21] k1l: when I right click the free space I only get "new simple volume" [14:21] NikLP: this is windows, right? [14:22] k1l: that's a win sshot yes [14:22] NikLP: you cant do that in win. [14:22] just boot up ubuntu (live) and start gparted or the installer [14:22] k1l: right :/ but when I allocate logical partitions of 6g swap, 10g each for home/slash, it just makes primarys instead and kaboom :/ [14:23] nope it doesnt. [14:23] well... that works ok but then I can't access the free space in the win diskman [14:23] just use manual partitioning and do it yourself. [14:23] it says I can't create a nother partition in win7 :( [14:23] NikLP: ? [14:23] I've done this twice already [14:23] i dont care what win says or wants. [14:24] k1l: ok let me outline. [14:24] k1l: installed win7, which makes two ptns for itself [14:24] windows doesnt work with ext4 what you need for ubuntu. [14:24] right I know [14:24] but I *can* do this dual boot thing [14:24] I've done it beofre [14:24] surely? [14:25] k1l: or am I losing my mind ? :) [14:25] NikLP: what is your issue? === JanC_ is now known as JanC === Jabo_ is now known as Jabo [14:25] you can not (!!!!) make the partitions needed from win. you need to run the ubuntu live system for that anyway. [14:25] k1l: I have 2 win parts. then I manually allocate three logical partitions in the parted in ubuntu mate installer, but when that finishes I can't add more partitions in win 7 disk manager [14:25] i dont get what your issue is now? [14:26] hey all [14:26] I'm not trying to make ubuntu partitions in windows k1l - I have done that in parted in installer [14:26] k1l: but I have 140gb of disk which I can't use because the installer uses primary partitions and then I run out and can't use the free space === txspud` is now known as txspud [14:27] NikLP: right now you just have 3 windows partitions. [14:27] Is there a way to verify free space on ext4? For some reason df's results and du's results make it appear like 200GB or so is missing [14:27] k1l: effectively, yes - one is a ntfs truecrypt partition but it's ntfs so windwos yes [14:27] NikLP: ok. lets stop right here. please boot into a live ubuntu system. come back here when that system is running. [14:27] kk [14:28] RedPenguin: how big is the disk? 5% will be kept for root [14:28] RedPenguin: but that amount can be tweaked up or down [14:29] k1l: right I'm booting into ubuntu mate 15.04 installer from usb [14:29] well it's two together, at 910GB and 917GB, supposedly 990GB used with 676GB free [14:29] I would figure with 990GB used, the free would be closer to 1TB [14:29] k1l: so I want to select "install ubuntu mate" I guess? [14:30] RedPenguin: 2 together in a RAID? One mounted over the other? [14:30] one mounted over [14:31] I get like 45GB each being 5 percent, so still doesn't sound right [14:31] RedPenguin: and, if you unmount the top disk, do you have anything is the bottom disk at that mount point which is being hidden by the stuff in the top disk? [14:32] RedPenguin: i.e. if it is mounted at /home, if you unoumt it do you have existing stuff in /home? [14:32] k1l: am I on the right track, or is it better to "try" and get into the os that way? [14:33] RedPenguin: (and bear in mind df is not a reliable source of disk usage anyway, although I think it is generally fine for ext4) [14:33] NikLP: open "gparted" and do the partitioning you like === Jabo_ is now known as Jabo [14:33] k1l: right but I'm to open the "try" before attempting the install, yes? [14:34] mcphail: one sec, guess gotta wait a little bit, mythtv is currently using the disk so can't umount it now to check and not mounted at /home [14:35] RedPenguin: the other thing I can't quite remember is whether df and du report sparse files differently... [14:35] can you tell me if c program is running gedit in background http://pastebin.com/iuN7XwqM or tell me what he's doing? [14:36] NikLP: yes [14:36] *this c program [14:37] k1l: ok so in gparted, I just create the three partitions that I tried before? 6g swap / 10g home / 10g slash ? [14:37] k1l: or do I need to create extended partition and put those three inside that? [14:37] k1l: ie, create 26g ptn then three logical? [14:38] NikLP: please read what i already said: make aextended one and put the ubuntu one into that [14:39] Can anyone recommend a USB 3.0 port replicator that works well with ubuntu? [14:39] hi. I am using ufw, does ufw allow login from pem? or if I ssh with pem, I can skip ufw? [14:40] k1l: that's fine, I will make an extended one - you haven't said anything about ptns after that, I read the backscroll :/ [14:40] k1l: do I just make those three as per my initial attempt in the installer? === Overand_ is now known as Overand [14:41] Hello. [14:41] k1l: sorry I missed a bit, will try with this and see what happens [14:41] Anyone know how to update CMake? My current repo isn't allowing me to upgrade to it (may be out of date?) [14:42] Thing I'm trying to compile requires 2.8.12, I have 2.8.9 [14:42] any body here? [14:43] I'm here [14:43] Hi. [14:43] welovfree, dit-moi [14:43] welovfree, what you wanna do with that prog ? [14:45] welovfree, not in background in foreground :-) [14:46] Why am I seeing none of welovfree's messages now .-. [14:46] k1l: ok I have three partitions in an extended - do I need to do anything to assign those to different mount points? slash/home? [14:46] thedarklord: when people say nothing, no messages are shown === Guest21457 is now known as sUbMuNdO [14:47] lol [14:47] is there a way to have my system automatically start up with bluetooth off? [14:47] (14.04) [14:47] not disabled, but just 'off' [14:48] So, asking again in case anyone didn't see it: How do I upgrade CMake without apt-get? [14:48] My repo isn't up-to-date with the newest version [14:48] NikLP: yes, you need to make sure they get mounted to the right mount point from the installer.

[14:49] NikLP: but that is quite simple task. just go with manual installing entry and make sure you check the partition settings [14:49] NikLP: that is not rocket science [14:49] k1l: ok, just had issues previously (obviously) [14:49] Also, almost certain this matters, but I'm using a version of Crunchbang that may be Debian (???) [14:50] neither supported here thedarklord [14:50] darn === Benno-007 is now known as Guest73908 [14:50] thedarklord: better ask the crunchbang support (didnt they stop with that distro anyway?) [14:51] Yes, development's stopped. Only suitable place appears to be either the debian IRC or the crunchbang forums [14:51] it is possible to reset ubuntu ? [14:51] serses: define 'reset' [14:52] like a fresh instal [14:52] install* [14:52] serses: yes. Do a fresh install [14:52] is this my only option? [14:52] anyways, i'm gonna get outta here so I can go ask people in the debian IRC [14:52] bye y'all [14:53] serses: you want to reset ubuntu to it's state when it was first installed? Recover from backup made immediately after you installed before. In the absence of one, reinstall and prepare for next time you want to do this === sturmflut is now known as sturmflut2 [14:53] i want to do a reset because i want to change from gnome to kde [14:54] hey guys [14:54] does anyone know the difference between nvidia driver with and with 'updates' suffix ? [14:54] thanks for your help yest, i got the USB stick to work, and installed Ubuntu 15 :) [14:54] serses: just type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop [14:54] k1l: respectfully, I see the partitions in the installer but nowhere can I see how to assign home to a partition. Or is the only option to select which partition to install the OS onto, and then pick a /home later? [14:54] serses: just install the kde package(s) you want. Gnome can remain in the background [14:54] so i can switch between these 2?

If I got a RHCA you think Canonical would at least consider me for a position? [14:56] NikLP: really. that is a easy task. its the same as you install windows. [14:56] k1l: no it's ok, I have it now. I think (strongly) [14:57] k1l: there was some oddness in the Change bit of the partition editor in the installer but I'm certain this will be ok now [14:57] as long as the ext part works :p === elgrubles is now known as grubles [15:02] I just removed myself accidentially from group "sudo", and am the only admin for a machine [15:02] How can I give myself sudo-rights again?

[15:07] I I could just take the SD card and mount it on my main machine, it wouldn't be a problem [15:07] jost: IME, I've shutdown Pis plenty of times unsafely with no problems. Except old versions of XMBC which could take the SD card down if that happened [15:08] somsip: I've done that two, three times [15:08] and each time it would not boot afterwards (its a pi 2 B) [15:09] jost: definitely had a power cut since I got my 2B and it [15:09] jost: it' still fine, but difference experiences.

[15:40] ki7mt: yeah, just wanted to make sure there is no other option than hard resetting the PI and manipulating the SD card [15:40] Hi, Do you know how can I have side by side windows in Screen? [15:41] that Ubuntu RPI image is very professionally done [15:43] its based on the work of this guy: http://sjoerd.luon.net/posts/2015/02/debian-jessie-on-rpi2/ [15:43] manohar__, this is the list of dependencies ... you can figure out http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/trusty-updates/suricata [15:43] adapted by an Ubuntu employee [15:45] jost, That's what I would recommend. Save your data, re-image the mSD card. Then, then you start again, create a second user, with the same exact groups as the user and never use the pi account except for recovery things like this. [15:45] ki7mt: I still have a recovery user [15:45] Named "ubuntu" in this case [15:46] but I can't login using SSH with it, since SSH passwort auth is deactivated, and no public key is put into that users directory [15:47] jost, That's good. Use that and I would recommend the Wheezy to Jessie Upgrade path, that image is works nicely. [15:47] So I tried to plug a keyboard and monitor, but that does not work either - no signal on the screen [15:48] jost, The RPI does not provide power to the HDMI connector. you need a a TV or adapter that provides signal power. [15:48] ki7mt: ah ok - thanks for the hint [15:48] jost, Your KB/Mouse, if they are USB should work though. [15:49] yeah, but they're not so much of use when I can't see anything [15:50] jost, Indeed. it is a pandora's box so to speak. [15:51] I want to set up a name lookup for an internal webpage, but I don't want to edit each machines' /etc/hosts/... is there a way to adjust lookup just on the internal network === BOHverkill_ is now known as BOHverkill [15:52] is it dhcp settings? is there a good resource for this topic? [15:52] jayjo: the machines don't have avahi/bonjour/whatever? [15:53] I'm sure they have bonjour - they're all macs [15:53] Hello there. I'm having some issues with an NFS mount of my NAS, that seems to have appered out of the blue. I suddenly don't have any write access. I believe it is mounted via NFSv4 [15:53] jayjo: then you should already be able to access the page at "http://hostname.local" [15:53] Is that all done through bonjour? [15:53] well the page is hosted on ubuntu ec2 instance [15:54] public ip, restricted to access from only internal (our ip) [15:54] maybe not the best way to do it, but I can't host it from my macbook [15:54] jayjo: aah - that's different :) [15:55] I know I could manually adjust each machines /etc/hosts to lookup to that ip with whatever name I want, but is there a way to force any machine from my network to resolve to an ip with particular name lookup? [15:55] I don't know much about this topic, to be fair so any bit of information could be really enlightening [15:55] jayjo: you could run your own dns server, I suppose. [15:56] jayjo: I can't see how that would be any easier, though [15:57] so really I should just adjust etc/hosts [15:57] jayjo: just put a DNS server infront of the network and have it resolve to w/e you want?

Noting I've tried works. I still get "The program 'java' can be found in the following packages" [19:05] !java | jd8 [19:05] jd8: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. [19:06] Hey guys [19:06] I've download chrome, however cannot get on netflix. [19:06] M7357-1003 - thats the error code. its something about DRM?

[19:07] 15.04 [19:07] the drm was just added iirc [19:07] Fodd: should work fine. "Just Works" here. Perhaps netflix are having network problems? [19:08] bazhang: drm has worked in chrome for a while now [19:08] might be, however i can view it on my phone [19:08] I need java somewhere though? When I try compile stuff with mvn I get the error Error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly. [19:08] We cannot execute /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/bin/java.

[22:19] I can't seem to view any Flash video, is it because of this? [22:20] Hi all [22:20] Whenever I try to load a YouTube video, I get "an error occurred" - I tried the HTML5 player too but it doesn't work either, and I was getting this error so I think it may be the problem [22:20] anybody? [22:21] I have 2 questions. First: Which one do you recommend for a dedicated server? Normal edition or LTS? And what's the difference between the normal and LTS edition? Only the support lifetime for security-only updates? === Fuchs is now known as zombiefox [22:23] WildMinion, depends what kind of server you mean, but given that many/most servers serve a role where downtime has costs and overhead, LTS buys you more longevity [22:23] WildMinion: My take . Dedicated server is LTS . Other than LTS you are testing for the next LTS release . [22:24] pbx: Yeah downtime has costs, so it's better to use LTS? [22:24] WildMinion, yes [22:24] pbx: But what's the difference? updates and support, or only support? [22:25] WildMinion, what's the distinction between "updates" and "support" you're making? [22:25] Bashing-om: You mean, LTS for servers, and all other who is non-LTS for testing and desktops? [22:26] non-lts needs an upgrade every 6 months, simple [22:26] pbx: The download tells me the LTS edition is supported for 5 years, more than a non-LTS. And I want to know what "support" is included: security updates? driver updates? support? etc [22:27] Only security updates, no new functionality. [22:27] WildMinion: it will keep getting updated packages and fixes for packages etc [22:28] WildMinion: when support stops you won't get any updates, newer kernels or updates for packages [22:28] EriC^: and support for expired edition is gone too? [22:28] what do you mean by support? [22:29] here? [22:29] like IRC help or so [22:29] yes [22:29] nah, it's up to whoever is helping you [22:29] WildMinion, there has never been support for expired versions. [22:29] but you could have packages that have security vulnerabilities and bugs etc. [22:29] WildMinion: Well, no not ecxactly. The interim releases incorporate the newer software (updates) and try to catch up with "newer" hardware. Now, what works in these releases you can expect to see in the next LTS release . [22:29] Any way to make 14.04 upgrade directly to 15.04 without going to 14.10 first? [22:30] circ-user-GXFo7: no [22:30] thanks [22:30] WildMinion: there is no sense in running a non-supported version [22:31] Yeah, i never run unsupported editions, i'll upgrade all. I think it's better to use the LTS edition, i don't really need the "new" package versions and features [22:31] WildMinion: you still get updates with the lts, it's just not the latest [22:31] if you go for non-lts you need to upgrade every 6 months. [22:31] isn't it every 9months? [22:32] Hi all, All of a sudden (probably after last update) I'm having the dreaded high system load, no CPU usage, and when I click to open the file mamager from Unity - it does not show up... any help ? TIA [22:32] the support frame is 9 months, but if you wait 9 months for the first you only got 6 left for the next ones since 3 months are overlapping [22:32] this happened now that I have urgent need to use the system... grr [22:32] etronik, open terminal: top # and see what process is hanging/zombies [22:32] Okay, and what happen when i upgrade my system? Will the LTS upgrade to a newer LTS version? (for example, 20.04 LTS to 21.04 except 20.04 LTS to 20.10) [22:33] WildMinion: lts-lts upgrade works, yes. but its 12.04 to 14.04 since lts is every second year [22:33] OerHeks, top reports two zombies - how do I find out which ones they are ? [22:33] probably Nautilus... [22:34] k1l_: Okay, a new LTS version is released every 2 years? [22:34] WildMinion: yes [22:34] !releases | WildMinion [22:34] WildMinion: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases === genii_ is now known as genii [22:35] Okay, i will use the LTS then, thanks to all ;) [22:36] etronik, here is a howto http://askubuntu.com/a/290012 [22:36] find the process and the parent, kill parent [22:37] what's the latest unity to use ?

[22:38] OerHeks: but u8 isn't desktop based it seems but for phones / tables ? [22:38] tablets.. [22:38] OerHeks, no zombie process come up with the command supplid in the howto [22:38] oops, zero zombies now... [22:38] but still high system load [22:38] ekarlso: its in development still. unity8 is actual running on phone and tablet and is been made for desktop now [22:39] k1l_: but it's not like a standard desktop ui no ? [22:39] I tried ubuntu-desktop-next and it felt like windows 8 :| [22:39] ekarlso: it is. its just not made ready yet. its in development [22:39] I select Nautilus from Ubuntu but nothing comes up - help ? [22:39] k1l_: u know when ? :D [22:39] ekarlso: which part of "heavy alpha" dont you understand? :) [22:40] :d [22:40] ekarlso: see the desktop-next iso and decide yourself. its not getting standard for 16.04 === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang === Ayn is now known as Guest54928 === phi0xz is now known as phi0x [22:48] hello [22:48] my apt-get install runs at 400 bytes per second >:c [22:49] now 0 [22:49] hbb [22:50] now 2 [22:50] Felishia: switch mirrors then [22:51] wait o.o irc also runs slowly === gsilva is now known as gsilvapt [22:51] eeeeh?

I'm using xubuntu 15.04. Is there a tool I can use for gpu scaling(connecting laptop to a tv hdmi). === lenny is now known as lgodzilla [23:35] is there a way to resize my linux partition from a command i can install (no livecd)? === lgodzilla is now known as lenny [23:36] mehwork: technically yes, unless the partition is mounted, so / won't really work [23:36] mehwork, no [23:36] it's a virtualbox guest vm [23:36] thats a different story [23:37] i've resized the vm on my host os but now i need to resize the partition from inside the guest vm [23:37] first, thats not a partition [23:37] What is the best way for me to get help here? [23:37] df calls it: /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root 13574 3859 9003 31% / [23:37] mehwork: growpart [23:38] mehwork: you don't have an iso? [23:38] oh, an lvm [23:38] that should work with lvresize and then, when done, ext2resize. I still wouldn't do that while in use, to be honest [23:38] cisadmin, what is your issue, what version of ubuntu and so on , all on one line, pastebin with the errors [23:38] zombiefox: hmm i do have the lvresize command installed. Now to learn how to use it [23:40] mehwork: you want to make it bigger, right? [23:40] yes [23:40] mehwork: unless ubuntu doesn't offer that (it's a RHEL thing), lvextend -l 100%FREE /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root [23:40] mehwork: again, I'd be careful with that and make a backup first [23:41] i have a backup. Lemme try [23:41] i take it needs sudo? [23:41] (that will resize it to the maximum allowed. If ubuntu doesn't offer -l 100%FREE, make that -L 123G (123 being the size in GB)) [23:41] #=1+1 [23:41] mehwork: I'd be surprised if it worked without [23:42] mehwork: after that you still have to extend the partition on it to match, I hope it's ext2/3/4, because then that is easy-ish [23:43] Here is a pastebin with all of the info: http://pastebin.com/7int47Jq [23:43] the vm used to be 15gb and is now 30gb. So maybe i should make / 25gb to leave some space for swap and other stuff? [23:43] mehwork: that would then be resize2fs -p /path/to/your/device (again, sudo, again, careful and read what it says) [23:43] mehwork: depends on whether you need swap. On a desktop machine you don't need much, the only (dis!)advantage of having swap is that the OOM killer doesn't come to play right away [23:44] mehwork: anyway, if these are separate LVM entries (usually they are), don't use -l 100%FULL if you want to resize the other ones, too. Use -L and the size in GB instead as per above [23:45] During a GRUB update, I am asked where to install GRUB. There is Raid1 on the disks. I am not sure where I should. Here is the mount table: http://fixee.org/paste/94jagdp/ [23:45] my fdisk http://fixee.org/paste/kxeoueh/ [23:45] if anyone can help with my questions I'd appreciate it [23:45] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30226104/why-is-ubuntu-machine-not-being-able-to-access-github [23:46] zombiefox: it said it extended it and then said: Insufficient free space: 2920 extents needed, but only 8 available [23:46] is that just because i still need to run resize2fs? [23:47] mehwork: odd, usually that is the lvm and not the partition, [23:47] but if it resized it anyway, I assume that is just ubuntu being odd with -l 100%FREE [23:47] mehwork: see with the command vgdisplay whether the size looks about correct [23:48] mehwork: if yes, go ahead and do the filesystem resize [23:49] i used -L 25G [23:49] ah, note that this has a difference between GiB and GB, so maybe you have to go a tiny bit smaller [23:49] zombiefox: not sure how to read the vgdisplay output to tell [23:50] anyway, check with vgdisplay when done and happy, then resize the partition -> done. Still something I'd never recommend, but given you have a backup ... [23:50] it says VG Size is 15 GiB [23:50] mehwork: it should give you a Free PE / Size 1234 / 12.34 GB [23:50] mehwork: then you need to resize the VG first, [23:51] check the id (thing on the left) with the vgs command [23:51] then use vgextend [23:51] Free PE size says 8 / 32.00 MiB [23:52] mehwork: http://usefulubuntu.blogspot.ch/2009/01/add-extra-storage-on-fly-with-lvm2.html should have all the steps (old, but correct. Just adapt the device names) [23:52] http://serverfault.com/questions/501895/used-vgextend-lvextend-to-add-addtional-8gb-space-but-it-is-not-reflected-in-df also has it [23:53] I'm afraid I have to leave you with that, because it is way beyond bed time for me, but that should cover all from what I can see [23:53] hey guys i mistakenly hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 did I kill my X session or is there a way to switch back to it?
