[00:00] <ki7rw> gparted should have fixed the problem
[00:00] <SmashingX2> sargas, did you try to do it from a different machine same IP?
[00:00] <bensocket> i have a little problem and was wondering if someone might be able to help me
[00:02] <cisadmin> Wired connection works on Windows but not Ubuntu. Could someone please help? http://pastebin.com/fHVrLLY3
[00:03] <bensocket> Error occurred while checking PostgreSQL version
[00:03] <bensocket> Please make sure you have PostgreSQL >= 9 or check the logs for more information about the error
[00:04] <bensocket> i just install posgresSQL 9.4
[00:08] <gzcwnk> anyone use bacula?
[00:08] <function9x> cisadmin: is this connected to a router?
[00:08] <cisadmin> It is connected to an ethernet jack at my university.
[00:09] <cisadmin> I have no problem connecting to the internet through Windows, and I previously had no problems with Ubuntu. I am very confused as to what could have changed to cause this.
[00:11] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: "/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf" is set to false, and "/etc/network/interfaces" is not configured to pick up the load. Try changing the flase to true, sudo service network-manager restart , ifconfig eth0 up .
[00:13] <Roland-> hello, any good utility to see which app is using disk ?
[00:13] <Roland-> beside iotop
[00:13] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, it is still not working.
[00:14] <function9x> cisadmin: if the audio stopped working and your nic's too, something has gone corrupted on your system.
[00:15] <cisadmin> function9x, what could it be? everything else seems to be in order. how could i tell what (else) is wrong?
[00:15] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: BY the numbers, step 1, is the card recognized ? 'lspci | grep Ethernet ' .
[00:17] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, I'm not sure what you mean by "BY the numbers," but that command outputs "00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection I217-V (rev 05)"
[00:21] <pbx> Roland-, does lsof give you useful info? otherwise... something wrong with iotop or you just want to know?
[00:21] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: step 2a, as we have no op4 addrees returns in the ofconfig command . what returns ' ip route list ' . See if we can talk to the university router .
[00:22] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, it returns nothing
[00:22] <Bashing-om> ip4*
[00:26] <gtuckerkellogg_> I'm having some NFS trouble, not sure what the issues is
[00:26] <gtuckerkellogg_> My rpc.stad is running (I see it in ps -ef | grep rpc)  but when an NFS share the I get a message that says it is not
[00:26] <gtuckerkellogg_> i can only mount with "-o nolock"
[00:32] <pavlos> cisadmin, line 113 should be yes instead of no. See if you can click on Network Manager tool and enable DHCP for the wired eth0 in the IPV4 settings
[00:34] <cisadmin> pavlos, I went to Settings > Network > Wired > Options > IPv4 Settings, and the selected method is "Automatic (DHCP)." I believe this coincides with what you suggested.
[00:35] <gzcwnk> anyone use bacula?
[00:35] <pavlos> cisadmin, and in the General tab of the tool, both options are checked. I suggest you reboot and see if it connects.
[00:37] <cisadmin> pavlos, yes the first two boxes are checked. I rebooted and still have the same problem
[00:39] <pavlos> cisadmin, might be a bad rj45 cable? can you test it with win (you mentioned it works). Just want to make sure the wall socket gives you an IP
[00:39] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: Not real sure how to proceed. Verify that they  file is changed to show 'true' as ' ip route list  ' has no return means not talking to the router . What about ' sudo ip link show eth0 ' ?
[00:39] <promet> Hi, I've been fiddling here for a bit with Ubuntu 15.04 since the upgrade (nvidia proprietary), and have finally got it to boot to lightdm. Downside is, unity is not a choice of session, though it is installed. Is there a way to add unity manually to the lightdm session list?
[00:41] <sargas> SmashingX2: Different machine, different IP yes. Same IP, not yet. By narrowing down the issue, I'm thinking a firewall rule or something not related to the Ubuntu machine itself is causing the issue
[00:42] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, managed is set to true. running that command outputs "2: eth0 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 (newline) link/ether ac:22:0b:83:3c:fd brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
[00:42] <cisadmin> "
[00:42] <cisadmin> pavlos, I will boot into windows to be sure
[00:44] <cisadmin> pavlos, it worked with no problems. are you interested in the output of ipconfig or other commands on Windows?
[00:45] <pavlos> cisadmin, no, that means the wall socket gives you an IP
[00:45] <pavlos> cisadmin, back to ubuntu, I assume 14.04?
[00:45] <cisadmin> yes
[00:47] <pavlos> cisadmin, system settings | Network | Wired there is a box to the right ON ... and proxy is none
[00:48] <cisadmin> pavlos, what do you mean? i see the options button, but nothing about proxies
[00:49] <cisadmin> pavlos, i do see a separate tab below "wired" that says "Network Proxy," method is set to none
[00:49] <pavlos> cisadmin, on the left side there is Wired and below that, Network Proxy
[00:49] <pavlos> cisadmin, no idea why it does not connect
[00:50] <GoatSex> poop
[00:50] <GoatSex> this is what I do on Centos
[00:50] <cisadmin> pavlos, i can't find any reason why it wouldn't either. any ideas about the sound issue? again, no problem with sound in Win7.
[00:50] <cisadmin> but ubuntu is suddenly silent
[00:50] <pavlos> cisadmin, can you pastebin dmesg | grep eth0
[00:51] <craigbass76> I've got a computer that boots as far as grub, but I can't pick which install to boot to, and it just hangs
[00:51] <craigbass76> I installed xubuntu on a new hard drive and had the same problem.
[00:52] <cisadmin> pavlos, here is the output: http://pastebin.com/kFUSbeb8
[00:56] <pavlos> cisadmin, how about step 3. reinstall sound ... http://www.unixmen.com/2012003-howto-resolve-nosound-problem-on-ubuntu/
[00:59] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: That last output indicates you are up (??) can we see a new ' ifconfig eth0 ' see now if there is an ip4 address returned ?
[00:59] <cisadmin> pavlos, no luck. something else i just noticed when trying to test the sound...seems that rhythmbox has no recollection of my music library existing...this really seems to be a system-wide problem, but i'd really like to avoid a complete reinstall
[01:00] <pavlos> cisadmin, can you switch users and login as guest? maybe your profile is all messed up
[01:01] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, here is the current output of ifconfig: http://pastebin.com/wWTQyTYL
[01:02] <nyio> I had to hard reboot my system and now I get a "start job is running" for several minutes (I presume this is a fsck) and then get dropped to an emergency shell. What should I do?
[01:02] <cisadmin> pavlos, logged in as guest...still no sound or internet
[01:03] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: check'n your http://pastebin.com/wWTQyTYL .
[01:03] <pavlos> cisadmin, cant think of anything else ... maybe Bashing-om ?
[01:05] <cisadmin> pavlos, now that you mentioned profile, i just remembered/noticed *another* thing...my desktop background is gone
[01:05] <cisadmin> i think you're on to something
[01:05] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: I am struggeling, maybe the university does not use ip4 addressing ? the link is up ip6 . A DNS issue ? what returns ' ping -c3 8.8.8.8 ' ?
[01:06] <cisadmin> Bashing-om "connect: Network is unreachable"
[01:07] <pavlos> cisadmin, so you could probably wipe out your /home/user/.config dir and everything below and reboot or let me google how to reset 14.04
[01:07] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: shucks, back to not talking to the router .. yet there is traffic at the ip6 level ? .. hummm .
[01:08] <cisadmin> pavlos, what effects would that have on my system?
[01:09] <daed> i have ubuntu on laptop with hdmi -> second external monitor.  is it normal for netflix/chrome in fullscreen to still have the unity top status bar on top as soon as the netflix window loses focus?
[01:09] <nyio> Is there a way to disable fsck for a single boot without editing fstab?
[01:09] <daed> and if so, is there a way to change it so netflix always stays on top on that monitor?
[01:10] <pavlos> cisadmin, all user .config data would be gone ... are you using unity?
[01:10] <cisadmin> pavlos, yes. i realize that that information would be gone, but i don't really know what that means for me. i.e. what settings and other things i would lose as a result
[01:11] <chaos7theory> Does anyone know of a good admin GUI for Postgresql on Ubuntu 14.04 Server? I'm using Nginx but PhpPgAdmin wants me to install Apache
[01:11] <pavlos> cisadmin, each app stores info in .config/somedir ... like audio, prefs, desktop stuff, etc
[01:11] <somsip> chaos7theory: I used to use pgadmin IIRC
[01:12] <somsip> !info pgadmin | chaos7theory
[01:12] <pavlos> cisadmin, try those ... http://sourcedigit.com/14332-reset-unity-compiz-settings-ubuntu-14-04-2/
[01:12] <somsip> chaos7theory: not official though http://www.pgadmin.org/
[01:13] <chaos7theory> Doesn't that require a Desktop Environment?
[01:13] <somsip> chaos7theory: admin GUIs tend to
[01:13] <cisadmin> pavlos, it won't let me install any packages without internet connection it seems
[01:13] <chaos7theory> I suppose I was thinking a browser interface akin to PhpPgAdmin xD
[01:14] <pavlos> cisadmin, true ... no idea what's going on.
[01:14] <somsip> chaos7theory: so you want a web interface. no idea. Just thought I'd mentioned pgadmin but looks like it's not suitable
[01:15] <cisadmin> pavlos, is there perhaps something i could learn by doing something like the following: setting a new background (since the old one was removed), rebooting, and seeing if it disappears?
[01:15] <chaos7theory> I think that'd be useful at least for development on my desktop
[01:16] <pavlos> cisadmin, sure, you can try ... You could create a new user, set up pw, then reboot, and use that user, see if that works.
[01:16] <cisadmin> pavlos, not sure what you mean...see if the user still exists, or what?
[01:17] <pavlos> cisadmin, no, you create a new user, bob, set up pw, then reboot and login using bob and pw.
[01:17] <cisadmin> pavlos, i can do that. what for?
[01:18] <pavlos> cisadmin, bob should have a clean /home/bob/.config and maybe Net and sound will work. Just thinking out loud
[01:20] <pavlos> cisadmin, something is corrupt in your setup, eiother user config and system ... if system, dmesg should gives us errors, if user config (/home/cisadmin/.config) then bob should have a clean way
[01:20] <cisadmin> pavlos, i tried moving .config to .config.old and rebooted with no luck...i imagine i would have the same with user bob, yes?
[01:20] <cisadmin> pavlos, if you still think i should try it i will
[01:21] <somsip> chaos7theory: are you trying to install an official ubuntu package for phppgadmin?
[01:22] <chaos7theory> Yeah I am, I may just have to have it install Apache just for it
[01:23] <chaos7theory> It requires Apache
[01:23] <somsip> chaos7theory: if its like phpmyadmin, it might be easier for you to just download the source package and install it to an nginx virtual host
[01:24] <pavlos> cisadmin, which means you have a system issue ... cant thing of something right now and I have to run an errant. maybe someone else can help ...
[01:24] <somsip> chaos7theory: just clone it off here https://github.com/phppgadmin/phppgadmin
[01:24] <cisadmin> pavlos, thank you for your time and effort. hopefully someone will be able to help me figure this out
[01:25] <pavlos> cisadmin, np
[01:28] <LunaLovegood> So I've managed to boot a laptop into an initrd that has busybox, wget, tar, bzip, etc... And the network works. How do I install Ubuntu from there?
[01:29] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: Networking: is the controller for Network-manger active > what returns ' service resolvconf status ' ?
[01:30] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, "status: Unknown job: resolvconf"
[01:30] <LunaLovegood> Is there a prebuilt archive somewhere containing debootstrap that I can download and use to install Ubuntu?
[01:32] <jbermudes> Does Ubuntu use /var/lock/subsys or is that something other distros use?
[01:32] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: Ouch ! but at least we have something to bite on . What returns ' dpkg -l resolvconf | pastebinit ' ?
[01:33] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: should have been "service resolvconf status >> resolvconf start/running" .
[01:35] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, here is the output from the dpkg command: pastebin.com/BEd0vPHq
[01:35] <Bashing-om> matt_symes: Hey Mat, Glad to see you pop in .
[01:36] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: look'n at your pastebin.com/BEd0vPHq .
[01:37] <matt_symes> hey Bashing-om. hello. not the channel to chat in though
[01:39] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: I am of a mind to try and reconfigure resolvconf . See then if we can get resolvconf to start running . What do you think ?
[01:40] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, I don't know much about it, but I'm willing to try it
[01:43] <modee> uh
[01:43] <modee> hi
[01:43] <modee> o_o
[01:45] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf ' It will present you with a question about preparing /etc/resolv.conf for dynamic updates - answer "Yes". It may also present you with another question about temporarily appending your existing config to the dynamic one - I suggest answering "No" to that one.
[01:46] <wonko> https://gist.github.com/bhechinger/5305aede84e9ce69080e

[01:46] <wonko> it's frustrating the hell out of me
[01:46] <wonko> the package is in the apt-mirror repo
[01:46] <wonko> I see it in the Packages file
[01:46] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, I did not get the second question. It suggested a reboot, so I'm doing that now
[01:46] <wonko> but apt can't find it?
[01:47] <ModelEngine> hi there, i'm looking for help removing f.lux from lubuntu

[01:51] <promet> Hi, I've been having trouble launching unity since the upgrade to 15.04, I've just noticed that my /usr/share/xsessions/unity.desktop file is missing is there a way to duplicate/replace this?
[01:51] <cisadmin> Bashing-om, the output is the same
[01:52] <ModelEngine> would anybody have a few moments to be able to help?
[01:52] <jbermudes> ModelEngine: Have you tried looking for where those menu items are stored?
[01:53] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: Hummm .. ' sudo service resolvconf start ' give us any joy ?
[01:53] <cisadmin> Bashing-om "start: Job is already running: resolvconf"
[01:53] <ModelEngine> jbermudes: it says its in local/shared/applications
[01:54] <ModelEngine> jbermudes: after i use sudo rm /usr/bin/xflux, should i just delete the icons in the local/shared/applications folder?
[01:55] <jbermudes> ModelEngine: How did you install flux?
[01:55] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: Yikes . Beats me, now above my skill level ! as 'service resolvconf status ' gives conflicting indication . I do not know how to troubleshoot this . Others ??
[01:56] <god_phantom> cisadmin: have u checked iptables to see if anything is weird?
[01:56] <cisadmin> god_phantom, not sure what you mean by
[01:56] <god_phantom> sudo iptables -L -v
[01:56] <cisadmin> "if anything is weird"...I'm fare from an expert
[01:56] <cisadmin> god_phantom i'll link to pastebin
[01:57] <ModelEngine> jbermudes: i did exactly this: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kilian/f.lux [Enter] sudo apt-get update [Enter] sudo apt-get install fluxgui [Enter]
[01:57] <god_phantom> Thanks!
[01:57] <cisadmin> god_phantom http://pastebin.com/3dUNPXf6
[01:57] <Teltariat> Hello all.  Is there a 1 line to apt-get install all the dependencies for a package, but not the package itself?
[01:59] <jbermudes> ModelEngine: Normally if you've installed something with apt-get you can use apt-get to remove everything since it probably installed other stuff besides just the executable
[01:59] <god_phantom> cisadmin: iptables is linux's firewall. I thought maybe there was a weird rule blocking something but your firewall is wide open. So dead end there. :-/
[01:59] <ModelEngine> so, would that be: sudo apt-get rm fluxgui?
[01:59] <jbermudes> ModelEngine: apt-get purge fluxgui
[02:00] <ModelEngine> jbermudes: thanks i'll give it a try
[02:00] <god_phantom> cisadmin: thank u for pastebinning that for me
[02:00] <jbermudes> ModelEngine: But I don't know if rm'ing the executable will cause apt to freak out. If it gives an error you could always apt-get install --reinstall fluxgui to restore
[02:01] <cisadmin> Teltariat, if you do sudo apt-get install -s <package name> you will get a list under "the following NEW packages will be installed" which you can copy and paste to an apt-get install command

[02:17] <cisadmin> god_phantom not sure what you mean
[02:17] <dprc> nickgaw, TC was non-free so not available in repos; will have to build yourself or install from 3rd-party source; neither of which is supported
[02:18] <ModelEngine> jbermudes: thanks i appreciate it :)
[02:18] <god_phantom> cisadmin: you have an Ethernet cable plugged into your computer. Is there a light on the plug? Maybe an orange or green light?
[02:18] <cisadmin> yes, it is orange
[02:19] <god_phantom> Ok, I just wanted to make sure. :) thank you

[02:21] <fedel> Hi people. Could someone give some idea about how to solve a problem. After the loading screen on boot, it only shows a black screen or sometimes a message “the system is running in low-graphics mode”. I’ve tried a lot of things
[02:21] <silv3r_m00n> jbermudes: just want to confirm that the recommended repair of boot-repair and do that straight and fine
[02:21] <Jagrophess> hi I was hoping someone could help me with my firefox. since im running on a casper partition on a live USB the search and address bars dont work
[02:22] <dprc> fedel, have correct graphics drivers installed?
[02:22] <fedel> dprc, nvidia-current
[02:23] <jbermudes> silv3r_m00n: All I can say is that I think I was able to use that program successfully a few years ago, but I only had one drive.
[02:23] <dprc> fedel, and you jumped through all the nvidia-xconfig hoops?
[02:24] <jbermudes> silv3r_m00n: In your case you'd have to make sure that whatever drive you repair is the same drive your bios boots off of
[02:24] <fedel> dprc, nope…
[02:24] <pavlos> cisadmin, lsmod | grep e1000

[02:27] <cisadmin> pavlos, you're telling me...i don't understand this whatsoever
[02:28] <dprc> or install drivers then remove nouveau
[02:29] <pavlos> cisadmin, pastebin sudo ethtool eth0
[02:31] <cisadmin> pavlos http://pastebin.com/fyV9hLG7
[02:32] <pavlos> cisadmin, line 19 should be on
[02:33] <cisadmin> pavlos, how do i go about fixing it?
[02:33] <pavlos> cisadmin, reading ethtool parms ...
[02:34] <jon_lettuce_ear> can anyone answer me: why do Linux people love ssh?
[02:34] <pavlos> cisadmin, sudo ethtool -s eth0 mdix on
[02:35] <cisadmin> pavlos looks like `ethtool mdix on eth0` or something like that sould do it?
[02:35] <cisadmin> pavlos nevermind, i'll do it your way
[02:35] <cisadmin> pavlos, i ran the command
[02:35] <pavlos> cisadmin, then vefify that this parm is on
[02:35] <fedel> dprc: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau?
[02:36] <cisadmin> pavlos, i ran ethtool eth0 again and it says "MDI-X: on (forced)"
[02:36] <jon_lettuce_ear> uh oh..
[02:36] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: More than the one wired interface ? ' ifconfig -a ' to show all interfaces, even those that are down .
[02:36] <pavlos> cisadmin, sudo lshw -C network
[02:37] <cisadmin> Bashing-om that outputs info for eth0, lo, and wlan0
[02:37] <dprc> fedel, i believe so; just make sure you do the xconfig stuff is all
[02:38] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: k , only the one wired interface then . hummm ...
[02:38] <dprc> xorg conf is probably not probably configured
[02:38] <dprc> s/probably/properly
[02:39] <cisadmin> pavlos http://pastebin.com/YQ419wBH
[02:46] <pavlos> cisadmin, can you try ifconfig eth0 down and then ifconfig eth0 up
[02:47] <pavlos> cisadmin, then see if inconfig gives you an inet address (line 2)
[02:48] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: pavlos Everything says we are up except for ip4 addressig. My ifconfig for reference http://paste.ubuntu.com/11123325/ ... Notice the ip4 "inet addr:192.168.0.101  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0"
[02:49] <pavlos> cisadmin, Bashing-om yes, I check every command with my laptop, for some reason he does not get an IPV4
[02:49] <cisadmin> pavlos, i get "inet6 addr: fe80::ae22:bff:fe83:3cfd/64 Scope:Link
[02:49] <r_rios> Hello. Any way I can install rust's cargo in Ubuntu 15.04?
[02:49] <r_rios> There's a PPA which provides it, but it's outdated and has no Vivid builds
[02:50] <pavlos> cisadmin, yes, if you had an ipv4, that would be the second line and ipv6 would be the third line
[02:50] <r_rios> There's this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~hansjorg/+archive/ubuntu/rust/+packages, but it only provides rustc, not cargo
[02:54] <pavlos> cisadmin, what kernel do you have? ... uname -a
[02:55] <cisadmin> pavlos "Linux Rapunzel 3.13.0-52-generic #86-Ubuntu SMP Mon May 4 04:32:59 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux"
[02:56] <pavlos> cisadmin, dont know what else to try ...
[02:57] <ModelEngine> hello, I'm looking for info on changing key-bindings in lubuntu
[02:58] <ModelEngine> I have open the config file using: sudo gedit ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml
[02:58]  * wonko sighs
[02:58] <wonko> no one?
[02:58] <Bashing-om> pavlos: Are you using network-manager ? can you verify the contents of cisadmin's "/etc/network/interfaces" file ?
[02:58] <wonko> :'(
[03:01] <pavlos> Bashing-om, auto lo <nl> iface lo inet loopback
[03:03] <Bashing-om> pavlos: looks to be same same .. I do not run ntwork-manager and mine is different , so another means to verify .
[03:03] <fedel> dprc: Thanks..I run the commands plus ˜ubuntu-drivers devices˜ to detect the right driver. It worked
[03:04] <cisadmin> pavlos Bashing-om I've been trying to think of some major change I've made recently that maybe could have caused this but nothing comes to mind...any idea? I tend not to do anything very dangerous..
[03:04] <dprc> fedel, cool. :) glad you got it all sorted out
[03:05] <dprc> just wanted to make sure it was that and not a pesky race-condition somewhere
[03:05] <dtigue> I recently upgraded to 15.04, my bluetooth has worked since then but today I boot up and it says that it is turned off by a hardware switch. I have no hardware switch.
[03:05] <dtigue> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11123505/
[03:05] <dtigue> That may help in figuring out what is wrong. ^
[03:06] <dprc> dtigue, can poke around with 'rfkill'; not entirely sure about its usage however
[03:06] <pavlos> cisadmin, well, if you have a live usb with some ubuntu, you can boot LIVE and test that it gets network
[03:07] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: Regrets, I am stumped. Presently I do not know how to proceed. I do not know how you can have traffic on ipv6 and still not able to talk to the outer and not have an ipv4 address and resolve.conf not co-operating ,
[03:07] <dprc> may not even be correct but, is a good place to start
[03:07] <Bashing-om> outer/router*
[03:07] <Sramelyor3301> Just wanted to know the command to login to an account. Anybody knows?
[03:07] <cisadmin> pavlos i do have a live cd, it will be slow but i can try it
[03:07] <pavlos> cisadmin, sure, give it a try
[03:08] <pavlos> cisadmin, looking for a needle in a haystack ... for some reason your system will not get an ipv4
[03:09] <cisadmin> pavlos booting up the cd now
[03:09] <daftykins> Sramelyor3301: what do you mean?
[03:10] <Sramelyor3301> how do I login to a irc network. I forgot the command
[03:10] <daftykins> Sramelyor3301: with which IRC client? can't read your mind :)
[03:10] <Sramelyor3301> daftykins: sorry its HexChat
[03:11] <Sramelyor3301> wasnt it something like/msgServ Nick?? i dont remember it well
[03:11] <daftykins>  /connect address ?
[03:11] <dprc> Sramelyor3301, you want to authenticate to services or connect to another network?
[03:11] <daftykins> ooooh you mean identify
[03:11] <daftykins> jeez
[03:11] <daftykins> Sramelyor3301: go ask in #freenode , this is OS support not IRC support
[03:11] <dtigue> dprc, so I've never heard of rfkill but it did the trick, after reading the man page i tried 'rfkill list' and then 'rfkill unblock 1' and that fixed it. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
[03:11] <ModelEngine> daftykins: hi dafty, do you like live on this channel? :)
[03:11] <dprc> Sramelyor3301, /msg NickServ HELP
[03:12] <Bashing-om> pavlos: cisadmin I would expect that '  ip route list ' would return the IP of the university's router ( and the box's IP ) . We get no return !
[03:12] <daftykins> ModelEngine: what?
[03:12] <gtuckerkellogg_> I'm having some NFS trouble, not sure what the issues is
[03:12] <gtuckerkellogg_> can someone offer advice on an NFS mounting problem?
[03:12] <Sramelyor3301> daftykins: oh damn. sorry. didnt realize i was here. dprc: Thanks :)
[03:12] <gtuckerkellogg_> My rpc.stad is running (I see it in ps -ef | grep rpc)  but when an NFS share the I get a message that says it is not
[03:12] <cisadmin> pavlos interesting that the gui never loaded...ttys 1 through 6 work though...
[03:12] <gtuckerkellogg_> i can successfully mount the NFS shared director, but only with "-o nolock"
[03:13] <chair> can someone offer advice on libre office top bar getting cropped at the top of ubuntu?
[03:13] <cisadmin> pavlos nevermind...i think it may be loading
[03:13] <ModelEngine> daftykins: maybe its just me, but i feel like i see you, reisio, and AR48 on here a lot which is bad, just interesting
[03:13] <sophie_> hey guys how do you mount an NTFS partition in Ubuntu since the default mounting option prevents it from accessing it
[03:13] <ModelEngine> daftykins: sorry, spelling mistake, should've been *isn't bad*
[03:13] <sophie_> I'm using Windows 10 TP build 10092 and  for some reason i can't open it
[03:15] <daftykins> sophie_: likely it is due to hybrid boot, boot back into Windows - press Super+R then type "shutdown -s -t 1" then power back up, boot into ubuntu then try.
[03:15] <cisadmin> pavlos Bashing-om ifconfig still returns inet6 but no inet and `ping 8.8.8.8` returns 'connect: Network is unreachable'
[03:15] <daftykins> ModelEngine: i volunteer regularly yes.
[03:15] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: On the liveDVD ?
[03:15] <sophie_> did that still doing that again
[03:16] <sophie_> says windows is hibernated
[03:16] <pavlos> cisadmin, you hit try ubuntu and it does not get an ip?
[03:16] <sophie_> even though it's on shutdown
[03:16] <cisadmin> Bashing-om pavlos yes on the live cd i hit "try ubuntu" and from tty1 ubuntu@ubuntu i get no ipv4 address
[03:17] <pavlos> cisadmin, so way back when you connected using windows, we should have looked at ipconfig and see what the Uni gives you
[03:17] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: That suggest it is not a config problem on our end . What results in the liveDVD ' ping -c3 8.8.8.8 ' .
[03:18] <cisadmin> Bashing-om that still does not explain the problems with sound etc...it returns the same "Network is unreachable"
[03:19] <cisadmin> pavlos i have a hostname and am able to get the ip from this machine
[03:19] <pavlos> cisadmin, sound should work on a LIVE CD
[03:19] <Bashing-om> !sound | cisadmin
[03:19] <sophie_> can you try to use the command tcdump so you get a detailed look if you're packets are going in and out?
[03:20] <gtuckerkellogg> So this is what I'm seeing.  It works with -o nolock, but not without, even though the services appear to be running.
[03:20] <gtuckerkellogg> http://pastebin.com/aj7kuctb
[03:20] <cisadmin> pavlos it seems i am getting no sound on the live cd either although the only way i know to test it is to change the volume with a hotkey as the gui is really messed up and i cannot get on the internet to try something there
[03:21] <LMNOP> sound seems to be a major issue on ubutu
[03:21] <pavlos> cisadmin, if you know the details on the Uni network, you can make a manual wired connection with ip, gateway, and netmask
[03:21] <cisadmin> pavlos i don't know gateway/subnet mask but i know the ip i'm supposed to be assigned
[03:22] <cisadmin> pavlos do you suggest i get this info from ipconfig on windows"
[03:22] <cisadmin> even though this may work i still think it is not the real issue
[03:22] <pavlos> cisadmin, the gateway should be like the ip but .1 at the end, mask is 255.255.255.0
[03:22] <cisadmin> as these issues cropped up all at once
[03:22] <cisadmin> pavlos i will boot up into the ubuntu partition and try it
[03:23] <pavlos> cisadmin, ipconfig on windows will give you all this
[03:24] <pavlos> cisadmin, the fact the the LIVE CD does not give you a gui concerns me ...
[03:24] <pavlos> that
[03:24] <daftykins> sounds like a bad burn to me, or corrupt download, or bad flash drive making
[03:24] <cisadmin> pavlos it gives me a gui but it was very glitchy and pretty much impossible to use...possibly related to my unusual (2560x1080) screen?
[03:25] <sophie_> did you try SHA checksum checking?
[03:25] <pavlos> cisadmin, you can lower the res system settings | display
[03:26] <Apachez> broadwell nucs had problem with ubuntu 14.10
[03:26] <Apachez> but thats supposed to be fixed in 15.04
[03:26] <LMNOP> its probly not that tho
[03:27] <pavlos> cisadmin, if you dont have audio using the LIVE CD, that tells me the audio chip is not recognized
[03:28] <pavlos> cisadmin, what model laptop?
[03:28] <cisadmin> pavlos i entered my ip and gateway and subnet mask and 8.8.8.8 for DNS and it says i have connection, but host, ping, and websites do not work...
[03:28] <cisadmin> pavlos it is my desktop
[03:28] <cisadmin> pavlos asus mobo with built-in audio, no sound card
[03:28] <cisadmin> pavlos sound worked previously with no problems
[03:29] <sophie__> do you have the brand and manufacturer of the sound card?
[03:29] <daftykins> i wonder if you have dual NICs and you're picking the wrong one :>
[03:29] <sophie__> I may find something to fix it
[03:30] <cisadmin> sophie__ how can i find those out? it's whatever came stock on the board
[03:30] <sophie__> I need the manufacturer and the brand
[03:30] <LMNOP> so sound and network both not works
[03:30] <sophie__> if it doesn't exist on the support list on ALSA then you're fucked
[03:30] <daftykins> LMNOP: an excellent summary.
[03:30] <cisadmin> sophie__ i understand but what's the best way for me to get that information?
[03:31] <sophie__> if you're dual booting on windows
[03:31] <pavlos> sophie__, languag
[03:31] <sophie__> I think find the thing that displays your machine's components
[03:31] <cisadmin> LMNOP correct, also desktop background disappeared....
[03:31] <LMNOP> yeah i would use windows
[03:32] <LMNOP> if video driver no work wuts the point
[03:32] <cisadmin> i'm dual booting, video is fine on the ubuntu partition. it just wasn't working right on a live CD
[03:32] <LMNOP> next time try live cd before u install
[03:32] <sophie__> cisadmin, is your sound card Realtek?
[03:32] <pavlos> cisadmin, do you have m/b model?
[03:32] <LMNOP> oh
[03:33] <sophie__> or your CD needs some sha256sum checking (did I spelt it right?)
[03:33] <cisadmin> LMNOP you're misunderstanding...I've had this install for quite some time and it just now stopped working out of the blue
[03:33] <daftykins> sophie__: nope
[03:33] <LMNOP> oh why were ppl teling u to run checksum on iso LOL
[03:33] <sophie__> I can't help you at this point unless I have the required info
[03:34] <sophie__> but if it's ubuntu's issue
[03:34] <Bashing-om> cisadmin: How about an inhouse check of the networking ? ' ping -c3 127.0.0.1 '
[03:34] <sophie__> check you're SHA sums
[03:34] <daftykins> SHA is not used on ISOs.
[03:34] <cisadmin> sophie__, lspci | grep Audio returns the following: "Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Chipset HIgh Definition Audio Controller (rev 05)" and "NVIDIA Corporation GK104 HDMI Audio Controller (rev a1)"
[03:35] <sophie__> well you're seriously fucked
[03:35] <daftykins> sophie__: drop the language now.
[03:35] <sophie__> oops
[03:35] <pavlos> cisadmin, asus h61m, h81m ...
[03:35] <cisadmin> pavlos works perfectly
[03:35] <cisadmin> (local ping)
[03:36] <sophie__> csiadmin, try to install the official Intel Drivers installer
[03:36] <sophie__> it's located on their page
[03:36] <daftykins> no, _never_ run that
[03:36] <cisadmin> pavlos i think z73 let me try to find out
[03:36] <sophie__> orrr, grab the binary drivers from the repos
[03:36] <LMNOP> that shit isnt supported here im guessing
[03:36] <sophie__> but I don't think Intel releases there drivers in gz format
[03:37] <daftykins> !language | LMNOP Please start either positively contributing toward the channel, or consider leaving
[03:37] <sophie__> but try the INtel drivers installer for good graces
[03:37] <LINU-X> hei dude, its great to met you all :)
[03:37] <cisadmin> sophie__ it's kind of hard without internet...besides, these solutions are all focused on one thing but i think it is clearly a larger problem. if it was a driver issue, i imagine i would have had problems much sooner. i have used this install for audio and video with no problem
[03:38] <sophie__> hmmm.....
[03:38] <LMNOP> !annoying @ daftykins
[03:38] <LMNOP> soz
[03:38] <sophie__> hold on i'm getting a massive core dump on my bash hold on
[03:38] <LMNOP> lol ok
[03:39] <sophie__> done
[03:39] <sophie__> seems I was getting memory  addresses all over the place
[03:39] <cisadmin> here's my mobo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131979
[03:40] <sophie__> do you have libalsa csiadmin?
[03:40] <cisadmin> sophie__ i don't think so
[03:41] <sophie__> well, install it
[03:41] <cisadmin> pavlos it is a z87
[03:41] <cisadmin> sophie__... i don't have internet access
[03:41] <sophie__> you need ALSA for everything in your sound card to work
[03:41] <LMNOP> ok did u run a sysupgrade?
[03:41] <LMNOP> how did this all start in the first place
[03:41] <pavlos> cisadmin, I dont see an issue with that m/b
[03:42] <sophie__> try dist-upgrade or simply upgrade since it's located on the official repos
[03:42] <pavlos> sophie__, he does NOT have internet
[03:42] <mar> hola
[03:42] <daftykins> LMNOP sophie__ - great advice for a system that's offline =|
[03:42] <sophie__> then how is he doing freenode then?
[03:42] <mar> sorry, i'm doing testing on nodeirc
[03:42] <daftykins> lol.
[03:42] <LMNOP> daftykins, if you read more carefully i asked IF he did one
[03:42] <sophie__> -_-
[03:42] <LMNOP> plz try 2 b helpful
[03:43] <sophie__> i can't give him the archive if he's cut from the net
[03:43] <daftykins> LMNOP: there is no need to try and troll
[03:43] <cisadmin> clearly i'm on the net on a different machine but unless you know something i don't, there's no way for me to make apt on one machine transfer to another
[03:43] <LMNOP> you should stop being a smart aleck
[03:43] <dprc> cisadmin, you can try 'apt-offline'
[03:44] <daftykins> LMNOP: drop the attitude
[03:44] <cisadmin> dprc command not found
[03:44] <sophie__> cisadmin: does the other machine connected in Ethernet?
[03:44] <LMNOP> now lets try to figure this out
[03:44] <cisadmin> sophie__ no, this machine is on wifi
[03:45] <LMNOP> no you
[03:45] <sophie__> grab an Ethernet cable and try to install the ALSA libraries
[03:45] <dprc> cisadmin, you can pull the binary from the debian pkg page and execute locally that way; then install on a networked machine using online pkg manager
[03:45] <sophie__> you could ask one if you don't mind
[03:45] <dprc> cisadmin, what release are you using; jessie, stretch, etc?
[03:45] <dprc> cisadmin, https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=apt-offline
[03:46] <LMNOP> wait wut?
[03:46] <sophie__> :3
[03:46] <sophie__> i'm getting a massive coredump hold on
[03:46] <cisadmin> dprc how do i find out?
[03:46] <sophie__> freaking segfault
[03:46] <daftykins> dprc: psst, this isn't debian
[03:47] <sophie__> U-boon-tu
[03:47] <cisadmin> daftykins that makes more sense lol
[03:47] <dprc> daftykins, i used the wrong search shortcut :-/
[03:47] <sophie__> this is u-boon-too
[03:47] <sophie__> not debian
[03:47] <sophie__> and mostly some packages in ubuntu are configured for it
[03:48] <cisadmin> i'm honestly not worried enough about the sound issue right now to go through all of that work considering that if i had internet on the machine, i could fix it more easily.
[03:48] <dprc> http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=apt-offline&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all
[03:48] <sophie__> hold on
[03:48] <sophie__> if I can find the ALSA binaries I may help
[03:48] <sophie__> what is your processor architechture tho
[03:48] <cisadmin> dprc i still don't see how to use it...
[03:48] <cisadmin> sophie Intel i7
[03:48] <daftykins> cisadmin: has anyone suggested booting an older kernel yet, or has it only been trolls replying? :)
[03:49] <sophie__> x85 or x64
[03:49] <sophie__> x86*
[03:49] <daftykins> sophie__: pointless question
[03:49] <dprc> cisadmin, https://www.debian-administration.org/article/648/Offline_Package_Management_for_APT
[03:49] <cisadmin> daftykins the first couple of hours were fine...the "trolls" just started
[03:49] <sophie__> welp no worries, I found this on Launchpad
[03:49] <sophie__> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-lib
[03:49] <sophie__> it may work
[03:49] <cisadmin> daftykins how would i go about that?
[03:49] <sophie__> but I suck at compiling
[03:50] <daftykins> cisadmin: did you mention dualbooting? so you get GRUBs menu on boot?
[03:50] <daftykins> sophie__: please stop making things up :)
[03:50] <cisadmin> daftykins yes. boots win7 by default
[03:50] <daftykins> cisadmin: so you want to go to advanced options on the GRUB menu then pick an older kernel entry
[03:50] <cisadmin> daftykins i see. will try that in a sec
[03:51] <dprc> if apt-offline is not on the machine you can select architecture from bottom of page and download binaries that way, then shuffle over to the machine
[03:51] <daftykins> also, take note if audio works prior to logging in
[03:51] <daftykins> dprc: it's ok the idea of needing something was bad advice
[03:51] <LMNOP> wait i have an idea try useing a more older kernel
[03:51] <LMNOP> try that
[03:52] <sophie__> how about the HEADERS?
[03:52] <cisadmin> daftykins booted up with ...37 instead of ...52, no luck
[03:52] <sophie__> 3.13?

[04:24] <cisadmin> daftykins dprc pavlos sophie__ i'm back
[04:26] <dprc> yeah they should be banned
[04:28] <cisadmin> dprc i downloaded and ran the .deb and clicked install but it's still saying apt-offline is not found
[04:28] <spearson> when I boot, I see a failed line but it disappears quickly so I can't see it
[04:28] <spearson> is thee a log that I could look at to see what may have failed?
[04:28] <cisadmin> dprc nevermind, i get it as a suggestion now but i'm still slightly confused as to how to use it
[04:28] <OerHeks> dpkg -i /path/to/.deb
[04:29] <daftykins> cisadmin: you were linked to something from debian afaik, so wasn't wise to run anyway
[04:29] <OerHeks> uh oh
[04:30] <spearson> when I boot, I see a failed line but it disappears quickly so I can't see it. is thee a log that I could look at to see what may have failed
[04:31] <cisadmin> daftykins i went to http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/all/apt-offline/download
[04:31] <OerHeks>  /var/log/boot.log  or /var/log/dmesg
[04:31] <daftykins> ah well i still think the entire approach was invalid
[04:32] <DrT666> IR now a Linux user!
[04:32] <OerHeks> !yay
[04:32] <DrT666> Thank you thank you
[04:32] <spearson> how do I get to /var/log/boot.log  or /var/log/dmesg?
[04:32] <spearson> termnal?
[04:32] <cisadmin> i didn't think it was really worth the time/effort, but i figured i'd try and alas, it did not help
[04:32] <DrT666> got sick of that windows stuff
[04:33] <OerHeks> spearson, gedit/nano/vim
[04:33] <spearson> Terminal?

[04:35] <OerHeks> softwarecenter>edit>sources
[04:36] <spearson> @owrheks could you walk me through how to locate or /var/log/dmesg?
 could you walk me through how to locate or /var/log/dmesg?
[04:37] <OerHeks> spearson, vim /var/log/dmesg # and hit enter
[04:37] <cisadmin> very interesting....not sure if it's related, but i ran the oldest kernel i had in recovery mode and ran fsck and a couple of the other tools and rebooted and suddenly it works...scared that upon the next reboot it will break again..... pavlos daftykins Bashing-om
[04:38] <cisadmin> still no sound however
[04:38] <spearson> in terminal?
[04:39] <OerHeks> spearson, that is what you asked for, or just open gedit and open> file> etc
[04:39] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: ubuntu version?
[04:40] <cisadmin> 14.04
[04:40] <cisadmin> 14.04.2 to be exact
[04:40] <daftykins> cisadmin: do you use a mechanical disk?
[04:41] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: was this a fresh install or upgrade from?
[04:41] <daftykins> lotuspsychje: morn o/
[04:41] <lotuspsychje> daftykins: good morning mate
[04:41] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje it was a fresh install a few months ago
[04:42] <cisadmin> been running it for a while with no problems, suddenly no ethernet or sound and a few other problems, they all seem unrelated but cropped up at the same time
[04:42] <cisadmin> internet is now working (although i have no clue why), but no sound
[04:42] <daftykins> cisadmin: check the health of your disk by: sudo apt-get install pastebinit smartmontools && sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit
[04:42] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: and surely take a look at your syslog and dmesg
[04:43] <daftykins> ^
[04:44] <cisadmin> daftykins lotuspsychje http://paste.ubuntu.com/11124560
[04:45] <cisadmin> lostuspsychje what should i look for in those? especially because syslog is written to so much
[04:45] <spearson> I can also look in system log application right?
[04:46] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: pastebin the whole thing :p
[04:46] <cisadmin> lol okay
[04:46] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: the more we can see, the more we can find whats going on
[04:47] <cisadmin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11124597
[04:47] <cisadmin> i had no idea this sort of utility existed
[04:48] <daftykins> cisadmin: disk looks ok
[04:48] <daftykins> perhaps you powered off unsafely at some point, to cause the needed fsck
[04:49] <cisadmin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11124619
[04:49] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: alot of network disconnects oO
[04:50] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje that's my computer constantly retrying to connect when i couldn't get an ipv4 address
[04:50] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: network card chipset + driver plz?
[04:50] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: sudo lshw -C network

[04:52] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: do you know if your ethernet card is old or new?
[04:53] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje not really. it's whatever's integrated into the asus z87
[04:53] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: old or new computer?
[04:53] <cisadmin> built it about a year and a half ago
[04:54] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: intel eth cards should be performing good on ubuntu...not sure yet why your ethernet disconnects so much
 I took a screenshot on boot and got the message. It says Failed to start LSB: Start NTP deamon
[04:55] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje it's never been a problem before. not like it disconnects during usual use. just this time it kept trying over and over to get a DHCP offer and was failing
[04:55] <spearson> should I be concerned about this?
[04:55] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: did you change anything network related lately?
[04:56] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje no. at least not intentionally... i tend to stay away from dangerous things lol
[04:56] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: syslog complaints a lot on dbus too
[04:56] <cisadmin> literally the only significant change i remember as of late is my switch to zsh, which seems totally irrelevant
[04:57] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje perhaps it complains whenever i try to change the volume? (i do that as an easy check if it's working because it makes a noise when i change the volume)
[04:57] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: did you enable internet + updates enabled when you installed 14.04?
[04:58] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje yes. i had it install third party software and applicable drivers etc
[04:58] <spearson> I took a screenshot on boot and got the message. It says Failed to start LSB: Start NTP deamon
[04:58] <spearson> should I be concerned about this?
[04:59] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: pastebin dmesg from terminal also plz?
[05:00] <suporte> oi
[05:00] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje i thought i linked you to it? unless you mean something else

[05:02] <cisadmin> wait it looks the saem
[05:02] <cisadmin> same
[05:03] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: maybe its interesting to try a no_acpi boot
[05:03] <spearson> could someone help point me in the right direction?
[05:03] <spearson> OerHeks: you still here?
[05:03] <lotuspsychje> !patience | spearson
[05:03] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje how should i do that?

[05:03] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: F1 during boot process and enable no_acpi booting
[05:04] <cisadmin> i'm guessing after selecting ubuntu at grub?
[05:04] <lotuspsychje> spearson: if you want something more stable, try LTS
[05:04] <lotuspsychje> !nomodese
[05:04] <spearson> I know but like living on the bleeding edge
[05:05] <lotuspsychje> !nomodeset | cisadmin same way like this, no_acpi

[05:07] <cisadmin> add a 1 in there
[05:08] <mentor> #list
[05:08] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: pastebin wrong?
[05:08] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje i'm not really sure how to do all of that, kind of confused even how to get the no acpi boot
[05:08] <cisadmin> yeah add a 1 with the other 1's

[05:11] <ibj> ok. i'll do it my way.
[05:11] <mentor_> q wea
[05:11] <Ben64> ibj: why though
[05:11] <mentor_> no tengo audio
[05:11] <mentor_> jajajajajaj
[05:11] <lotuspsychje> Ben64: did you have a link for those cards gtx 770 for right driver?

[05:11] <mentor_> ok bro
[05:12] <mentor_> english
[05:12] <Ben64> lotuspsychje: 331 works on gtx 770
[05:12] <mentor_> why i dont have audio
[05:12] <lotuspsychje> Ben64: ok tnx
[05:12] <mentor_> right now im on lubuntu
[05:12] <mentor_> before on ubuntu 14.02
[05:12] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: try the 331 driver from your additional drivers list
[05:12] <mentor_> why
[05:12] <lotuspsychje> !sound > mentor_
[05:13] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje i'm currently on the 349.16 driver, i can go to 331 if you want
[05:14] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: http://askubuntu.com/questions/160036/how-do-i-disable-acpi-when-booting
[05:14] <Ben64> 349 works too
[05:14] <Ben64> i haven't read the back log, whats the issue, cisadmin ?
[05:14] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: there was an nvidia complaint in dmesg, thats why
[05:15] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje do you mean the proprietary or the open source? i think i switched to the newest open source because the proprietary had issues giving me the right resolution (2560x1080)
[05:15] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: but try the no_acpi boot first maybe, most troubles in logs are acpi related
[05:16] <cisadmin> Ben64 i had a bunch of different problems all pop up at the same time, including being unable to get a dhcp offer over ethernet (which has been resolved although i don't know why/how, and it may come back) and no sound. no video problems, but lotuspsychje suggests i change drivers because of messages in my syslog i believe
[05:17] <Ben64> what version of ubuntu
[05:17] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: i suggested other things too :p, check all your hardware
[05:17] <cisadmin> 14.04.2
[05:17] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje i didn't mean it in a bad way, sorry
[05:17] <lotuspsychje> me neither :p
[05:17] <Ben64> nvidid 349 on 14.04?
[05:17] <Ben64> sounds like ppa
[05:18] <lotuspsychje> Ben64: his card: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11124823/
[05:19] <Ben64> looks normal
[05:19] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje what am i looking for when i boot with acpi off?
[05:19] <cisadmin> i did it
[05:20] <cisadmin> still seems the same as before. i haven't changed drivers (yet)
[05:21] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: i advise you a specialized bootcd to test all your hardware
[05:21] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje such as?
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: hiren's boot cd example
[05:22] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: if your hardware faults, your syslog is full with errors, and its not ubuntu's fault right
[05:23] <cisadmin> i just don't understand how it could be a hardware problem if everything works in windows
[05:23] <cisadmin> (sorry, just realized you may not be aware of that because idk when you got here)\
[05:23] <cisadmin> sound, internet, etc have all worked just fine the entire time and they worked fine for a while on ubuntu
[05:23] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: windows boots, ubuntu boots, its whats happening under the hood what matters
[05:24] <cisadmin> but why would windows make noise and connect and ubuntu not? i'm not saying it's impossible, but i would think i'd see symptoms on windows as well
[05:26] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: you can try alot already mate, testout yourself
[05:27] <cisadmin> i'm downloading the file for the cd now
[05:28] <cisadmin> wait, actually i don't have a cd to write to
[05:28] <cisadmin> i have to wait until i go home for that
[05:28] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: plz dont paste any line your going to do in this channel
[05:28] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: investigate silent :p
[05:30] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje i understand why you suggested the no acpi boot and the change in drivers, but what should i look for to determine whether those were helpful?
[05:30] <lotuspsychje> cisadmin: compare your syslog and dmesg with the old ones, and look if you still got acpi errors
[05:31] <pagios> hi all, i am trying to configure my ubuntu to have a better X windo resolution, doing a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xord does execute and exits silently
[05:31] <pagios> any idea?
[05:32] <cisadmin> lotuspsychje so there are these lines in the syslog about acpi, not sure how to interpret them http://paste.ubuntu.com/11125031
[05:45] <sgo11> In the process of "sudo apt-get upgrade", how can I stop "flashplugin-installer: downloading..." and remove flashplugin-installer? I tried to "sudo kill -9 <pid>", it will result in "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." This drives me crazy. I just want to get rid of flashplugin-installer. that hangs there forever. thanks.
[05:46] <daftykins> so purge the package...
[05:46] <sgo11> daftykins, I can not. because I am in the process of "upgrade". if I kill it, it will tell me to fix the problem as what I said in the above comment.
[05:47] <daftykins> so let it do it once more then purge it.
[05:47] <daftykins> you're trying to have your cake and eat it
[05:47] <sgo11> the problem is I can not purge the package before I upgrade it.
[05:47] <sgo11> daftykins, that hangs there forever. it will take maybe one or more days to complete.
[05:48] <daftykins> o0
[05:50] <tagwolf> daftykins cant you blacklist / ignore it
[05:50] <sgo11> tagwolf, I am the one who has this problem. how can I blacklist it? thanks.
[05:50] <joseluis> irc-hispano.org
[05:51] <dprc> or just pin the current version
[05:51] <tagwolf> echo "flashplug-installer hold" | dpkg --set-selections
[05:51] <tagwolf> try that?
[05:51] <daftykins> tagwolf: you picked the wrong user :)
[05:51] <tagwolf> sorry :P
[05:51] <tagwolf> saw your name on his line
[05:51] <tagwolf> hehe
[05:52] <daftykins> np
[05:53] <donaldrc3> So question, how would I get f.lux to properly work with multiple monitors? I got xfluxgui which is supposed to work on multiple monitors, but it isn't for me.
[05:53] <sgo11> tagwolf, "dpkg: error: dpkg status database is locked by another process". I can not do anything.... kill -9 the process will result in "dpkg error". to fix that kill error, I have to run the flash install again. this is a contradiction.
[05:54] <joseluis>  /Server irc.irc-hispano.org
[05:54] <joseluis> atreides.irc-hispano.org
[05:57] <donaldrc3> ?
[05:58] <tagwolf> kill it
[05:58] <tagwolf> then hold the pkg
[05:58] <donaldrc3> Is that for me?
[05:58] <tagwolf> cant do much if it's already running now
[05:58] <tagwolf> now for sgo11
[05:58] <tagwolf> no*
[05:59] <donaldrc3> How do I do that cause I think I'm running xflux for terminal and fluxgui for regular lol
[06:00] <tagwolf> sgo11: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/debian-ubuntu-linux-apt-get-blacklisting-packages-using-hold-option/
[06:00] <sgo11> tagwolf, I have already posted the reason why I can not do that. if I kill -9 it, whenever I run apt-get OR dpkg commands, it will report the error: "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.". AND IF I RUN "sudo dpkg --configure -a", THE STUPID FLASH INSTALLER WILL BE RERUN AGAIN.
[06:01] <tagwolf> didn't see that
[06:01] <sgo11> tagwolf, sorry.
[06:01] <tagwolf> id either purge the pkg manually or fix the flash error
[06:01] <ibj> sgoll: why not first uninstall the flash player plugin installer?
[06:01] <tagwolf> e.g. checking syslog, lsof, etc to see what it's problem is
[06:02] <sgo11> tagwolf, I can not purge it because I am running upgrade right now.
[06:02] <slipshot> is anyone having any trouble installin vmware on 15.04?
[06:02] <sgo11> ibj, I forgot to do that. that's my mistake. now, I can not do anything.
[06:02] <slipshot> i keep gitting an vmnet error
[06:03] <tagwolf> it'll say that even with a --force or --fix-install
[06:03] <tagwolf> ?
[06:03] <slipshot> the module wont compile with the 3.19 kernel.
[06:03] <tagwolf> if you kill it
[06:03] <sgo11> tagwolf, I know what the problem is. it's because the stupid network in my country. I can not do anything for this. my country network is crap.
[06:03] <Ben64> slipshot: vmware is proprietary, you should ask vmware about it
[06:03] <tagwolf> edit yer hosts file to resolve the domain to a null address
[06:03] <tagwolf> it will prolly timeout fast
[06:04] <tagwolf> or even to localhost
[06:04] <slipshot> i realize that but it had no trouble in the 3.18 kernels.
[06:04] <tagwolf> other than that. without helping you over ssh myself, it's hard to solve this problem over irc :(
[06:04] <slipshot> something has changed between 3.18 and 3.19
[06:07] <sgo11> tagwolf, thank you very much. I will try the host way. it's a good idea. :)
[06:07] <tagwolf> lemme know!
[06:07] <tagwolf> np
[06:10] <sgo11> tagwolf, that works. thanks a lot. it will simply report "IOError: [Errno socket error] [Errno 111] Connection refused" and then complete. thanks.
[06:10] <tagwolf> woooo! awesome :)
[06:11] <tagwolf> after that purging should be no problem. good luck!
[06:12] <sgo11> tagwolf, yeah, I did that. it works. this is a good idea. ^_^ thanks.
[06:12] <tagwolf> no worries. I'm a security guy. so used to thinking of weird ways around shit hehe
[06:13] <sgo11> :)

[06:32] <DBoyz> Hi, may I know how to switch mirrors for ubuntu server using command line?
[06:32] <DBoyz> Are there any docs?
[06:37] <tagwolf> DBoyz yes, one moment
[06:38] <tagwolf> DBoyz would you like to use a specific mirror? or select the fastest
[06:40] <daftykins> where fast == actually just latency based
[06:40] <daftykins> ^_^
[06:41] <tagwolf> apt-get install netselect-apt
[06:41] <tagwolf> and apt-spy
[06:41] <tagwolf> netselect-apt should be all you really need
[06:42] <DBoyz> tagwolf: specific mirror. i don't trust fast mirrors anymore
[06:42] <fruitsNveggies> a media player with miliseconds?
[06:42] <fruitsNveggies> so I can pause and resume a song and see the milliseconds?
[06:42] <daftykins> A series of words that forms a question?
[06:42] <DBoyz> the mirror i am subscribed to doesn't seem to have missing files
[06:43] <fruitsNveggies> daftykins, yes.
[06:47] <fruitsNveggies> does anyone know a linux media player that displays miliseconds?
[06:52] <DBoyz> how do i report mirrors that have missing files though?
[06:54] <daftykins> DBoyz: i just threw "ubuntu mirror report" into google and discovered #ubuntu-mirrors exists
[06:55] <daftykins> that'll likely be for official ones, but someone might know
[06:56] <DBoyz> daftykins: i'll give it a try. thanks
[06:56] <tagwolf> fruitsNveggies: vlc doesnt?
[06:56] <tagwolf> I'm sure theres some plugin for it that can if it doesn't with a setting tweak
[06:57] <tagwolf> vlc extension is called "time"
[06:57] <tagwolf> scratch that. support was removed in 2.1
[06:57] <tagwolf> doing more research
[06:58] <tagwolf> http://addons.videolan.org/content/show.php?content=149618&forumpage=0&PHPSESSID=fee4d78b932f9cb53441a6ddba589908
[06:58] <tagwolf> worth a try
[07:00] <DBoyz> err tagwolf, I am getting this
[07:00] <DBoyz> Package netselect-apt is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[07:01] <tagwolf> apt-cache policy it?
[07:01] <tagwolf> and I dunno. use apt spy then :D
[07:01] <nuby> hello can anyone help me with a wordpress on ubuntu
[07:02] <daftykins> nuby: you're going to need to be a lot more specific
[07:02] <daftykins> "i'm trying to... i expected... but this happened..."
[07:02] <nuby> my permalinks art working
[07:02] <nuby> ar not
[07:02] <daftykins> got mod-rewrite on?
[07:03] <nuby> i did see somthing about that for an older config
[07:04] <daftykins> well you need it enabled
[07:05] <nuby> got an idea where to find a page on it
[07:05] <DBoyz> netselect-apt: Installed: (none) Candidate: (none) Version table:
[07:06] <auronandace> !find netselect-apt
[07:07] <daftykins> nuby: yes apache docs. probably as simple as "sudo a2enmod mod-rewrite" though, or mod_rewrite - unsure
[07:07] <tagwolf> daftykins, correct. you can literally just run "sudo a2enmod"
[07:07] <tagwolf> and it'll list them and prompt you
[07:08] <nuby> sweet thank daftykins
[07:08] <tagwolf> same with a2ensite
[07:08] <tagwolf> a2dismod, etc
[07:08] <daftykins> nuby: oh and in future, this is a requirement of wordpress - and kinda web admin 101 sooo, readmes are great ;)

[07:16] <gtuckerkellogg> can someone offer advice on an NFS mounting problem?
[07:16] <gtuckerkellogg> My rpc.stad is running (I see it in ps -ef | grep rpc)  but when I try to mount an NFS share the I get a message that says it is not
[07:16] <gtuckerkellogg> statd, that
[07:16] <gtuckerkellogg> It works with -o nolock, but not without, even though the services appear to be running.
[07:17] <gtuckerkellogg> looks like this: http://pastebin.com/aj7kuctb
[07:27] <dreamon> daftykins, vblank_mode=0 glxgears - think thats a easier way
[07:28] <daftykins> you didn't read the question did you
[07:28] <daftykins> oh it was you
[07:28] <daftykins> i had in mind something a LOT more taxing than glxgears ¬_¬

[08:26] <RogerDodger> Hello folks
[08:26] <daftykins> lo
[08:26] <RogerDodger> Anyone know how I would batch rename files?
[08:27] <tagwolf> yes
[08:27] <daftykins> with some bash skills that #bash might be able to help with
[08:27] <tagwolf> but need more specifics
[08:27] <RogerDodger> eg rename file01.mod to file01.mpeg
[08:27] <RogerDodger> but about 100 of them
[08:28] <RogerDodger> it's just the extension i need to change
[08:28] <daftykins> mv *.mod *.mpeg ? :)
[08:28] <FrameFever> I tryed to use these here: https://launchpad.net/~kzemek/+archive/ubuntu/boost
[08:29] <FrameFever> but after update apt-get I get this message: W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/kzemek/boost/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-amd64/Packages  404  Not Found
[08:29] <FrameFever> did I something wrong?
[08:29] <RogerDodger> will that seriously work daftykins? I did think of that but thought it woldnt be that simple
[08:29] <daftykins> not sure. copy two into a second folder and test it
[08:29] <daftykins> or tagwolf might be able to dive in and tell me off beforehand :D
[08:30] <tagwolf> for file in *.mod
[08:31] <daftykins> FrameFever: if you read the PPA link it says it only has a package for utopic, you get a 404 for a trusty path because there isn't one
[08:31] <tagwolf> mv -- $file ${file%.mod}.mpeg
[08:31] <tagwolf> something like that
[08:32] <tagwolf> daftykins DONT DO THAT
[08:32] <FrameFever> daftykins: what is utopic?
[08:32] <daftykins> FrameFever: 14.10...
[08:32] <tagwolf> mv *.mod..no no no! it'll do bad things
[08:33] <RogerDodger> Cheers tagwolf & daftykins
[08:33] <RogerDodger> sorted :-)
[08:33] <daftykins> hmm i want to test why now
[08:33] <tagwolf> because it'll prolly match everything in the folder
[08:33] <tagwolf> so if you have 1 2 3 4 all with .txt
[08:34] <tagwolf> it'll rename them to something like 1234.txt 1234.txt etc etc or something whacky
[08:34] <tagwolf> try it out cause I'm curious how bash will eval it
[08:34] <daftykins> it complains about *.mpeg
[08:34] <daftykins> mv: target ‘*.mpeg’ is not a directory
[08:34] <daftykins> so no problem
[08:35] <web> d
[08:35] <tagwolf> try mv filename.txt *
[08:35] <tagwolf> :D
[08:35] <tagwolf> that'll prolly cause some chaos
[08:35] <iptable> for file in *.mod ; do newname="${file%.mod}"; mv "${file}" "${newname}" ; done
[08:35] <Guest46877> Hi guys! Do you know if Venom vulnerabily affect Qemu VM without floppy disk controller attached?
[08:35] <iptable> based on tagwolf suggestion, full solution ^
[08:35] <daftykins> well the code on the guest has to be attached i would think, Guest46877
[08:36] <tagwolf> thanks! yea shoudl work :O
[08:36] <daftykins> Guest46877: i think there's a qemu chan though
[08:36] <iptable> Guest46877, just discussed that on ##linux. Yes, the controller itself is always attached, even if the device nor the image is attached.
[08:37] <DBoyz> Hi guys, is it normal for my sources.list to have 'vivid' when my current version is only utopic unicorn? http://paste.ubuntu.com/11127082/
[08:38] <Guest46877> Ah ok perfect! thanks daftykins, thanks iptable
[08:38] <iptable> no probs
[08:38] <daftykins> DBoyz: are you sure? "cat /etc/issue" and "lsb_release -d"
[08:39] <iptable> accidental upgrade?
[08:40] <DBoyz> daftykins: Ubuntu Utopic Unicorn (development branch) \n \l
[08:41] <DBoyz> Description:    Ubuntu Utopic Unicorn (development branch)
[08:42] <DBoyz> iptable: i've been trying to upgrade to vivid but the mirror server i've been subscribing has missing files
[08:42] <DBoyz> hence upgrade aborted
[08:42] <iptable> tagwolf, if mv has multiple-files as source, the destination needs to be a directory, as it's a move, not rename.
[08:42] <iptable> tagwolf, so mv *.mod *.mpeg will say "*.mpeg directory not found"
[08:42] <daftykins> DBoyz: so it's not even updated enough to be stable, interesting
[08:43] <DBoyz> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11127174/
[08:43] <iptable> DBoyz, ok, so your system is not utopic, it's half-updated between utopic and vivid
[08:43] <tagwolf> what about multiple destinations
[08:43] <iptable> DBoyz, change mirror, upgrade again?
[08:43] <DBoyz> ._. okay
[08:43] <tagwolf> not multiple sources
[08:43] <tagwolf> I understand that part cause I move multiple sources all the time
[08:43] <DBoyz> iptable: that's my second time changing mirror
[08:43] <tagwolf> but I've never tried to do: mv myfile.txt *
[08:43] <DBoyz> but shall i stick with vivid or should i revert to utopic?
[08:44] <iptable> tagwolf, all parameters apart from the last one are treated as a source. you cannot tell mv to have multiple destinations
[08:44] <tagwolf> cause that would be stupid :P
[08:44] <tagwolf> ok good!
[08:44] <daftykins> DBoyz: well i'm pretty sure you should've been up to date on utopic before upgrading to vivid
[08:44] <tagwolf> cause if it fully evaluated the destination.. that'd be bad :P
[08:44] <iptable> tagwolf, essentially, first bash will expand the * to files and then mv does the trick with parameters expanded by bash.
[08:44] <daftykins> DBoyz: up to you :> risk what you will!
[08:44] <DBoyz> oh god
[08:45] <DBoyz> daftykins: i haven't turned on my computer for ages and the only upgrade i got from my ususal apt-get update && apt-get upgrade is google-chrome-stable
[08:45] <tagwolf> ubuntu....start using a 3.2 kernel >.<
[08:45] <daftykins> DBoyz: seems suspicious
[08:45] <iptable> DBoyz, 1. backup your files, 2. change sources list to utopic, 3. apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade 4. reboot 5. try to upgrade to vivid.
[08:46] <daftykins> tagwolf: 3.20 ?
[08:46] <daftykins> 3.2.x was in 12.04 :>
[08:53] <Idler> hi
[09:01] <tk-coding> haillll!
[09:17] <Zai-Cesuo> hi guys. can someone help me out with a UEFI / legacy problem?
[09:18] <svetlana> only if you ask
[09:19] <ablest1980> anyone know if sudo ufw enable is affecting my wireless connection?
[09:19] <Zai-Cesuo> i have a problem on my other PC. I guess it might be the mainboard. I am trying to install my windows 7 in legacy mode but unfortunately it wont boot the DVD if i dont choose UEFI. anyone got an idea?
[09:19] <ablest1980> or my connection just sucks?
[09:20] <ablest1980> Zai-Cesuo, i think #windows this is ubuntu support
[09:21] <Zai-Cesuo> It kinda is an ubuntu question. I first had the problem that Grub wont recognise my old windows installation. someone said it is due to my UEFI installation. so i shall reinstall it
[09:21] <ablest1980> ok
[09:24] <tk-coding> hm i dunno
[09:24] <tk-coding> i have an issue sometimes after a long ubuntu sleep. after re logging in, the launcher is absent
[09:24] <tk-coding> and no top bar
[09:25] <tk-coding> i have to reboot each time to make things go back to normal ui
[09:26] <popey> tk-coding: perhaps bug 1292830 ?
[09:30] <ablest1980> i ve that popey on my system purple screen with black border i dont know if i still see it but ive seen it
[09:31] <ablest1980> when my sys starts
[09:36] <yaclm> Hello! How can I create a starter on the desktop in gnome 3.6?
[09:37] <svetlana> there is no desktop. only the funny things called 'favourites' at the left. no?
[09:40] <trwww> hello, I've been given a server to work on with no DNS confgured. I added a dns-nameservers entry to /etc/network/interfaces and ran `sudo resolvconf -u`, yet still no DNS. Any advice?
[09:41] <svetlana> trwww: I would add a nameserver ip to /etc/resolv.conf .
[09:41] <trwww> svetlana: the header in that file says to not do that
[09:41] <svetlana> what does it say?
[09:42] <trwww> # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
[09:42] <trwww> #     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
[09:42] <svetlana> can you read the resolvconf man page, then?
[09:42] <trwww> sure, and I've done what it says
[09:46] <asgard> Good Morning
[09:46] <ablest1980> GM
[09:58] <chrissi> Hallo
[10:05] <andybrine> does anyone know how to install the intel graphics on ubuntu 15.04?
[10:05] <cfhowlett> andybrine, go to the intel site, install the installer, fire up the installer and let it do its thing.
[10:05] <andybrine> Everytime I try to install it, it says distribution not supported
[10:06] <MrElendig> andybrine: you don't have to install anything
[10:06] <andybrine> I dont have to install anything?
[10:06] <MrElendig> support is in the kernel and xorg out of the box
[10:06] <MrElendig> this is not windows
[10:06] <andybrine> oh ok
[10:06] <MrElendig> though even windows ships with drivers for intel chips these days
[10:07] <andybrine> I have installed the latest drivers with Ubuntu in the previous distribution.
[10:08] <andybrine> like cfhowlett has mentioned, is this something new MrElendig?
[10:08] <MrElendig> no
[10:09] <MrElendig> if you want a newer driver then you can use mesa-git etc from ppa
[10:09] <andybrine> ok, so what is the purpose of the driver on the intel website for 14.10?
[10:09] <MrElendig> but it really isn't worth it
[10:09] <cfhowlett> andybrine, looking at the intel page, no mention of graphics installer after 14.10.  so it's >>> 14.10 <<<< but not needed thereafter
[10:10] <andybrine> ok, im just curious. I was not sure, I thought that may have been because they have not updated it for 15.04 as it is a new distro
[10:12] <lotuspsychje> here's an article for 14.10 on it: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2015/03/latest-intel-linux-graphics-drivers-now-available-for-ubuntu-14-10
[10:12] <andybrine> ok thanks :)
[10:12] <MrElendig> you can get the latest mesa/dri from ppa, much better than grabbing from intel.com
[10:12] <MrElendig> or you can roll your own .deb
[10:12] <MrElendig> which is even better
[10:24] <henxxa> when is fixed that encrypted swap issue?
[10:37] <totoala831> hello7
[10:37] <totoala831> hello
[10:37] <totoala831> ciao
[10:37] <totoala831> !lista

[10:47] <bojan> Can anybody tell me UI creation software that shouuld be drag and drop for creating an application??
[10:47] <lotuspsychje> bojan: you wanna create a .deb?
[10:48] <svetlana> no
[10:48] <svetlana> more like qt creator, gorm, or whatever ide gtk programs use
[10:48] <svetlana> 'ui designer', 'ide' are good keywords
[10:48] <lotuspsychje> !who | svetlana
[10:49] <bojan> lotuspsychje:No i want to create an user interface for a project..But i dont have much knowledge in coding..I want an software like drag and drop
[10:49] <svetlana> i'm speaking to the last 2 people who spoke
[10:49] <svetlana> that is, to lotuspsychje and bojan
[10:50] <svetlana> so go ahead and try qt-creator, gorm packages and see what you like
[10:53] <drfoobaz> Hello.
[10:53] <drfoobaz> Could someone please help me diagnose this strange problem?
[10:54] <chotaz`w> !ask > drfoobaz
[10:54] <drfoobaz> So here's the issue.
[10:54] <MonkeyDust> drfoobaz  spare the enter key

[10:55] <drfoobaz> MonkeyDust: Ubuntu Versions? This is 15.04...
[10:58] <drfoobaz> Any thoughts?
[11:00] <drfoobaz> Well, I figured it out.
[11:00] <drfoobaz> Apparently title bars need to be disabled: new_window 1pixel
[11:06] <old_male_> exit
[11:07] <old_male_> quit
[11:12] <geri> hi what is ubuntu headless?
[11:12] <oliver__> hi there. i've some strange crashes with Studio 14.04.2 LTS with Nvidia-Optimus and the Xorg Server. With Optirun SDL, SFML or GLFW Applications crashes four of five time closing the app window.
[11:12] <geri> no gui?
[11:12] <MrElendig> no X
[11:12] <geri> MrElendig: do you reply to my question?
[11:12] <almark> no monitor
[11:13] <MrElendig> well, techically you can run X too
[11:13] <MrElendig> and use a remote display
[11:13] <geri> almark: just the terminal?
[11:13] <MrElendig> headless = no keyboard/monitor
[11:13] <geri> MrElendig: no keyboard?
[11:13] <almark> you don't want a gui on a server something
[11:13] <MrElendig> geri: ye
[11:13] <MrElendig> s
[11:13] <geri> almark: so like terminal only?
[11:13] <almark> i guess so
[11:14] <geri> ok
[11:14] <brine_> is there any way you can install kali linux tools in ubuntu 14 without crushing my machine
[11:14] <MrElendig> doesn't really imply terminal only
[11:15] <geri> are those the only files to run ubuntu? UBOOT_URL = https://github.com/Xilinx/u-boot-xlnx/archive/$(UBOOT_TAG).tar.gz LINUX_URL = https://github.com/Xilinx/linux-xlnx/archive/$(LINUX_TAG).tar.gz DTREE_URL = https://github.com/Xilinx/device-tree-xlnx/archive/$(DTREE_TAG).tar.gz
[11:15] <MrElendig> brine_: half of them are packaged
[11:15] <MrElendig> brine_: for the rest, just get the source from upstream and package it yourself
[11:15] <cfhowlett> !kali | brine_, no kali support here
[11:16] <brine_> ok ubottu
[11:16] <geri> MrElendig: my makefile creates: boot.bin uImage devicetree.dtb  ... are those the only files to run ubuntu?
[11:17] <Jakdaw> When is it likely that 3.19.0-17 will get published (currently just 'proposed') for vivid? How long do kernels usually spend in just 'proposed' state? (wanting btrfs fixes)
[11:17] <MrElendig> geri: xyproblem
[11:18] <brine_> need to change the interface of my ubuntu 14
[11:18] <brine_> any help
[11:19] <oliver__> whats the diffrence between 14.04.1 and 14.04.2. so that nvidia-optimus will not work correctly?
[11:23] <MonkeyDust> oliver__  start here http://www.itworld.com/article/2886829/ubuntu-14-04-2-lts-released.html
[11:24] <oliver__> While this is great but does not help ;-)
[11:25] <MonkeyDust> oliver__  what is your actual question?
[11:25] <newbee200> hi ppl I am trying to get the Wifi work on my laptop. the first step would be to find firmware-iwlwifi - where could I get this? apt-cache search firmware-iwlwifi gives nothing
[11:27] <MrElendig> newbee200: sure you need that package?
[11:27] <MrElendig> you probably have the firmware installed already
[11:27] <newbee200> hmm - let me check this
[11:27] <MrElendig> is it actually complaining about the firmware in dmesg?
[11:27] <oliver__> why the wiki for Bumblebee on ubuntuusers works for the old version 14.04.1 and causes crashes with the new one 14.04.2.
[11:27] <newbee200> 1 sec
[11:28] <MrElendig> have you tried to just connect?
[11:28] <Fjorgynn> :)
[11:29] <momomo> is it just me or is the mouse click sometimes clicking on the wrong places in ubuntu 14 ?
[11:29] <momomo> it has started to happen quite frequently
  no it is not installed
[11:29] <MonkeyDust> momomo  it's you
[11:29] <momomo> good to know
[11:30] <momomo> maybe it's my mouse or something
[11:31] <javnut> when you tag an image, is the tag embedded into the image?
[11:31] <MrElendig> newbee200: please don't use <> it looks like you are quoting me
[11:31] <MrElendig> newbee200: use your tab key instead to autocomplete nicks
[11:32] <newbee200> ok i am sorry
[11:32] <oliver__> i'm not alone searching a answer: http://askubuntu.com/questions/572948/unity-freezes-when-closing-or-minimizing-a-window
[11:32] <MonkeyDust> newbee200  type ne [tab], see what happens
[11:33] <newbee200> so how could I install the iwlwifi
[11:33] <oliver__> there many others. and there is no one feels addresed about this problems
[11:33] <javnut> what's a good image tagger with quick tagging features, such as if you press "g" it'll tag the image as "technology" or if you press "o" it'll tag it as "outdoors" and slide to the next image
[11:33] <javnut> does anything like that exist?
[11:36] <oliver__> thats not a bumblebee problem. this is a problem with the xorg server with many applications running on ubuntu and optimus. please take a deeper look inside befor puplishing new version!
[11:36] <MonkeyDust> javnut  is this useful http://askubuntu.com/questions/109954/tagging-photographs
[11:37] <cfhowlett> oliver__, nearly everyone in this channel is an ubuntu user ... NOT developers.  your comment might be better addressed directly to the dev's.
[11:37] <oliver__> but no one here has problems with optimus. thats weird. ;-9
[11:38] <javnut> MonkeyDust: it might, let me try out the answers and see what happens
[11:41] <newbee200> does anybody know how to install firmware-iwlwifi on xubuntu?
[11:42] <MonkeyDust> !find iwlwifi
[11:44] <jorick> trying to install ubuntu on my uncle's laptop, it freezes as soon as i select "install", "try ubuntu" or "check for defects". checking memory corruption does work. do i need kernel switches? it's an older asus eepc
[11:45] <MonkeyDust> newbee200  try installing linux-firmware
[11:45] <cfhowlett> !lubuntu | jorick, old hardware?  suggest lubuntu.  it's optimized for legacy hardware
[11:47] <jorick> well it's not /that/ old, it's newer than my current laptop which does have ubuntu on it... even has an SSD
[11:47] <jorick> :)
[11:47] <Woodpushergh> On my ubuntu 14.04 server I've stopped getting normal apticron emails and instead receive the following error: "/etc/cron.daily/apt:

[11:47] <newbee200> Oh Ok trying
[11:48] <MonkeyDust> Woodpushergh  use a !pastebin for multiple lines
[11:49] <Woodpushergh> Sorry, Newbie error
[11:51] <Woodpushergh> !pastebin
[11:51] <jorick> MonkeyDust, cfhowlett i found the error! i hit <tab> to edit the menu entry and removed "quiet" and "splash". this gave me a bit more information about what went wrong. it now says the cd needs x86-64 but only detected i686
[11:51] <jorick> so i will download the 32bit version?
[11:51] <cfhowlett> jorick, yes.
[11:51] <jorick> awesome, thanks
[11:52] <cfhowlett> jorick, happy2help!
[11:52] <MrElendig> jorick: what cpu do you have?
[11:55] <Woodpushergh> I'm receiving the following error on Ubunut 14.04 server: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11129471/
[11:56] <Woodpushergh> Previously I was receiving apticron update notifications
[11:57] <nbt> Woodpushergh: install python-xapian package
[11:58] <newbee200> I installed linux-formware, but dpkg-query still finds no iwlwifi
[12:00] <newbee200> linux-firmware sorry
[12:01] <enlightified> Hi guys! I am on 15.04 and my DHCP on eth0 is having problems.  how should I debug this?
[12:01] <Woodpushergh> nbt: When I try to install python-xapian states I already have latest vervion. Sould I purge and re-install?
[12:02] <MrElendig> enlightified: tell it to be verbose
[12:02] <MrElendig> and log to stdout
[12:03] <enlightified> "sudo ifconfig -v eth0 up" says nothing.
[12:04] <MrElendig> ifconfig was deprecated a decade ago
[12:04] <nbt> Woodpushergh: the error says it can't find the module xapian, which is supposed to be installed by that package
[12:04] <MrElendig> and ifconfig has nothing to do with dhcp
[12:04] <newbee200> MrElendig: maybe the iwlwifi is inside linux firmware and not specified?
[12:04] <nbt> Woodpushergh: what's the output of    ls /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/xapian   ?
[12:04] <MrElendig> newbee200: have you tried to just connect?
[12:05] <newbee200> actually I have a message in the menu saying wireless disabled by hardware switch - what would that mean ...
[12:06] <newbee200> oh ok trying to add wireless
[12:06] <enlightified> really? how are we meant to look at the assigned ip now then. I didn't know.
[12:06] <enlightified> let me read a bit about ubuntu networking ...
[12:07] <bekks> newbee200: you have a hardware switch on your computer, somewhere, for enbaling/disabling wireless.
[12:08] <MrElendig> newbee200: press the button
[12:08] <MrElendig> or slide the switch
[12:09] <MrElendig> this is why I asked you to check dmesg btw
[12:09] <newbee200> MrElendig - iwconfig says I have wlan0   ESSID:off/any
[12:09] <newbee200> i can not press the button it is disabled
[12:09] <bekks> newbee200: Yeah. It is turned off by your hardware switch.
[12:09] <bekks> newbee200: you have to ENABLE it using that switch.
[12:09] <enlightified> MrElendig: thanks. it seems I need a lot of brushing up. I've been using linux for 5 years now and I just came to ubuntu from debian.
[12:09] <MrElendig> newbee200: the *physical* button
[12:09] <MrElendig> or slider switch
[12:10] <MrElendig> enlightified: http://inai.de/2008/02/19
[12:10] <MrElendig> enlightified: for doing ip by hand then use `ip`
[12:11] <newbee200> MrElendig: which button do you mean?? I can not find any button to be related to these things
[12:11] <MrElendig> other than that there is networkd, networkmanager, various dhcp clients
[12:11] <MrElendig> newbee200: which laptop do you have?
[12:11] <enlightified> MrElendig: yeah I was looking at this:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkConfigurationCommandLine/Automatic . It's no wonder I had been having problems recently.
[12:12] <MrElendig> too bad ubuntu still have an outdated networkmanager and no nmtui
[12:12] <newbee200> sony . Oh yes I found a button "wireless" but it is green and switched on and was switched on all the time
[12:12] <bekks> MrElendig: nmcli ...
[12:12] <MrElendig> and still uses the silly /etc/network/interfaces instead of networkd
[12:13] <MrElendig> bekks: nmtui is much nicer
[12:13] <bekks> MrElendig: networkd is part of systemd, isnt it?
[12:13] <bekks> Thank god we are not using it.
[12:13] <MrElendig> ...
[12:13] <MrElendig> inb4ignoratnfudspwwing
[12:17] <newbee200> MrElendig: any idea?
[12:18] <dprc> newbee200, rfkill
[12:19] <viscera> MrElendig: 15.04?
[12:19] <viscera> MrElendig: i.e. is 15.04 still outdated
[12:22] <VsyachePuz> Is it possible to configure xfce4-terminal to substitute some key to produce ANSI sequence?
[12:25] <dprc> newbee200, do 'rfkill list all' and use 'rfkill unblock <number blocked interface>'
[12:26] <dprc> that will flip the "switch"
[12:26] <newbee200> i did already rfkill unblock wlan0 no effect
[12:26] <dprc> no, you dont do 'wlan0' you use the number infront of that provided by rkill; so try unblock 0 or unblock 1 etc
[12:28] <dprc> alternatively could try 'unblock all' but does not always work
[12:28] <newbee200> i did rfkill list all it gives a list (of interfaces??) there are 0 -- 5   Wlan is not blocked (soft or hard)
[12:28] <newbee200> sony-Wimax is blocked
[12:28] <MonkeyDust> VsyachePuz  try xkeymaps
[12:28] <MonkeyDust> VsyachePuz  try xkeycaps
[12:29] <newbee200> dprc: should I unblock all of them?
[12:29] <dprc> newbee200, it shouldnt hurt to try
[12:29] <newbee200> ok )
[12:29] <bonbrn> Hello, I have an problem on my Ubuntu 15.04. Everything was working before yesterday. But suddenly I have no more sound output. So I look into System Settings / Sound. There is no output device in the list under "play sound through". Moreover, there is nothing in the Input list. Other fact : videos are playing too fast on youtube. All the solutions to similar problems given on forum don't work for me. Ideas ?
[12:31] <newbee200> dprc: well i unblocked now instead of "blocked by switch" I have a message " wireless is disabled"
[12:31] <newbee200> ok! enable wireless!!
[12:32] <newbee200> YEAHHHHHHH
[12:32] <VsyachePuz> MonkeyDust: I don't want to map from scancode to keysim. That is ok for me. I want to map from keysim to ANSI seq
[12:33] <MonkeyDust> newbee200  did rfkill solve the issue?
[12:33] <newbee200> seems so - wait for 1 second
[12:36] <newbee200> dprc: Thanks a lot! it solved really the problem!!
[12:36] <newbee200> Monkeydust: yes
[12:36] <dprc> newbee200, cool. :)
[12:36] <MonkeyDust> newbee200  great, hope you learned something on the way, too
[12:38] <newbee200> dprc: why did it block the wifi interface? I never asked for this )
[12:39] <dprc> newbee200, i've no clue about that. i think if you uncheck 'Enable WiFi' in NetworkManager it will call rfkill, but not sure
[12:40] <newbee200> i see - my compliments anyway! knowing the right answer at the right moment means a lot
[12:41] <dprc> some one else had the same issue last night so was still fresh in memory
[12:42] <ioria> newbee200, you had this : SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill ?
[12:43] <dprc> ioria, nah, something complained about being disabled by hardware switch
[12:46] <jackbrown> anybody can help me with libreoffice?
[12:46] <bonbrn> Hello, I have an problem on my Ubuntu 15.04. Everything was working before yesterday. But suddenly I have no more sound output. So I look into System Settings / Sound.

[13:11] <NikLP> right I made a partition with a mount point in gparted before installation, but I'm a fool, cos the partition is encrypted with truecrypt and can't be mounted during boot
[13:12] <NikLP> problem is it still attempts to mount it but that's no good
[13:12] <NikLP> so how do I get rid of the mount point?
[13:12] <ioria> bonbrn, try do add yourself to audio group, logout login  --  sudo addgroup <username> audio

[13:16] <bonbrn> ioria: do I take a look ?
[13:16] <ioria> bonbrn, unlikly, i think  you have to run through the : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure

[13:18] <ionreflex> I did a 'do-release-upgrade' to 15.04, but kernel still 3.16?
[13:18] <Dreddy> say there is a line like: "Hello my name is peter henriksson, and my son's name is carl henriksson" And I want only to change everything after the 2nd "name is".... or only after the first "name is"... is this possible??
[13:19] <ionreflex> What's the proper way to install 3.19 kernel?
[13:21] <MonkeyDust> ionreflex  synaptic is one way
[13:21] <pbx> Dreddy, i think you posted that to the wrong channel

[13:33] <luckybunny> hi folks. My ctrl key isn't working as expected (it is working though). When I press ctrl, a black circle appears around my cursor briefly. When I'm playing games, I can't control anythng that uses the ctrl key because of this. Seems to be some kind of override that means the key does that instead of anything else it's supposed to
[13:34] <EriC^> luckybunny: which de are you using? xubuntu?
[13:34] <luckybunny> I don't mind that function being there, but I do need the key for other things as well from time to time lol
[13:34] <luckybunny> Unity
[13:34] <luckybunny> 15.04
[13:34] <geri> dfdf
[13:35] <EriC^> luckybunny: type gsettings get org.gnome.yelp show-cursor
[13:35] <BluesKaj> ionreflex, update/upgrade and dist-upgrade
[13:35] <dprc> Dreddy, you could use 'grep' and 'sed' or maybe a little 'awk'. a lot of tools for this
[13:35] <luckybunny> false
[13:36] <Dreddy> dprc: thanks, getting help on #bash :)
[13:36] <EriC^> luckybunny: do you have anything installed that deals with the cursor or theme?
[13:36] <luckybunny> that I'm aware of, no
[13:36] <luckybunny> ccsm and unity-tweak, perhaps, though
[13:38] <luckybunny> ah, unity-tweak got rid of the circle.. now to see if it's freed up the key for other things
[13:39] <EriC^> luckybunny: ok, cool
[13:39] <EriC^> there's also gsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.mouse locate-pointer
[13:40] <EriC^> if it's set to true then you could try settings it to false
[13:40] <luckybunny> yeah that did it
[13:40] <rori> whats the raspberry channel?
[13:40] <luckybunny> hmmm is there a command to make the pointer always visible (except when watching videos
[13:40] <Kardos> rori, you're looking for #raspberrypi ?
[13:41] <rori> USB mobile broadband that is not supporting linux/ubuntu officially, do they normally work anyway?
[13:41] <EriC^> rori: there is iburst, it works
[13:41] <luckybunny> there's a game I play that gets a little frustrating because it involves scrolling through lists, which normally isn't an issue, but in that game it stops scrolling when the pointer disappears
[13:42] <luckybunny> so I get 3 seconds worth of scrolling lol
[13:42] <EriC^> rori: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Iburst
[13:43] <EriC^> rori: i'm not sure how well it works though, do you already have one or you're buying one?
[13:43] <Lum4n4r3> show
[13:44] <rori> EriC^, buying a new one because the old one is to expensive to pay the fee for
[13:45] <rori> i had some trouble with the old one as well but eventually got it to work
[13:45] <HedgeMage> Hey, guys.  According to /boot/config[kernelversion], CONFIG_NET_IP_TUNNEL is set to 'm' but I don't have a 'tun' module...should it be called something else?
[13:46] <HedgeMage> Ubuntu 14.10 running kernel 3.16.0-33-generic
[13:47] <NikLP> right I've found my entry in fstab
[13:47] <MonkeyDust> HedgeMage  start from the beginning, what are you doing, what brings you here
[13:47] <NikLP> if I literally don't want to have anything to do with an entry in fstab, or the volume trying to mount, or anything, can I simply delete the entry in fstab, or is there some convoluted process to go thru?
[13:48] <HedgeMage> MonkeyDust: Trying to set up an IPsec vpn via the network-manager module for same.  tun0 is not being created.  I tried to manually load the tun module but it doesn't seem to exist.
[13:49] <MonkeyDust> HedgeMage  that's a very specific question, if you don't get an answer here, try in ##networking (double #)
[13:50] <HedgeMage> MonkeyDust: Will do, though I've successfully narrowed the issue down to the missing kernel module...just need to find out why I can't find it...thought it may be some Ubuntu-ism I'm not used to. :/
[13:53] <llutz> HedgeMage: grep CONFIG_TUN= /boot/config-$(uname -r)        CONFIG_NET_IP_TUNNEL is not tun/tap related
[13:54] <HedgeMage> aha...CONFIG_TUN is set to 'y' so it's compiled in, not a module...that explains one thing...
[13:54] <HedgeMage> now WTF can't network-manager create a tun device when it wants to?
[13:54]  * HedgeMage grumbles
[13:54] <fsferrara> Venere20
[13:55] <HedgeMage> Will attack this again from $workthing...must check out of hotel at the moment
[13:55] <HedgeMage> thanks, llutz
[13:57] <Munt> hey folks, i made my first bash script last night … and it *almost* works,   i get an error at the end of the file and I cannot work out why.   im sure you folks will see the problem immediately :p   http://pastebin.com/y69QdSgN          I pasted the error at the bottom of the file
[13:57] <Pici> Munt: you commented out the while on line 12.  also #bash is probably a better place to ask in the future.
[13:57] <llutz> Munt: done without do
[13:58] <Munt> thanks pici and llutz xx
[13:59] <brine_> how can i change the interface of my ubuntu 14.04
[13:59] <Munt> beginners non-luck.    that thing where you stare at something for hours until staring at does no good :p
[13:59] <cfhowlett> brine_, change it to what??
[14:00] <menace> can someone explain to me, what the ubuntu snappy system can do better then the old one? perhaps with examples?
[14:00] <cfhowlett> snappy | menace
[14:01] <Munt> I took the while and the done out in order to run it as a root cron job every 10 minutes …. unfortuneately it never loaded
[14:01] <menace> i always read "transactional", but an actual example would be nice :)
[14:01] <Headknot> hey guys! I would be immensely grateful is someone could answer this question: How do I find replacements for packages that are obsolete in the repository? I'm setting up a lab based around this ubuntu server, and needed dependencies for the software Im going to run include 'python-dev' and 'python-virtualenv'. These don't exist anymore though, and I don't know how to find the packages that replaced them.
[14:02] <AtuM> Headknow.. I use google to find alternatives for each package.. usualy I find them
[14:04] <AtuM> Headknot, perhaps you have not enabled the "universe" repo?
[14:06] <antoine__> coucou
[14:07] <Headknot> AtuM: Yeah I tried googling at first as well, but haven't found anything useful (yet). I haven't enabled anything that deviates from the 'standard' installation. Universe is the community-maintained one right? Worth a try, be back in a while :)

[14:09] <giarc2000> on ubunut
[14:10] <lv_> i ran do-release-upgrade from 14.10 to 15.04 and have not been able to boot normally.... only way I can is to hit grub -> advanced ubuntu and select the upstart mode.... anyone else getting this issue?
[14:10] <cn28h> I suppose you'd need to mount her first
[14:11] <ben__135> HI
[14:17] <JuJuBee> I am unable to sync my  banshee playlists with my iPod classic 80G.  The songs transfer but not the playlist itself
[14:19] <Munt> I’m running ubuntu server with a pptp VPN on it so that my home address isn’t publicly online for my site.    it seems like a convoluted method.   is there a more widely accepted method for achieving this ?
[14:20] <cfhowlett> !channel | Munt, perhaps ask the server channel
[14:20] <Munt> cfhowlett: didnt know there was one … thanks

[14:22] <Sly> Hi there
[14:22] <Sly> Could someone help me? This should be quick :)
[14:23] <Johnny_Linux> state your claim
[14:23] <Guest98027> Hello guys when I press an ad link on reddit it turns off my screen and then reboots, thought the second time I did it bit din't reboot just the screen went off, the second time I was having music and I was hearing the music doing the loop when it is stuck like a a a a again and again.
[14:23] <Seveas> Sly: it'll take very long if you don't say what you need help with :)
[14:24] <ubuntuser13> Empathy Worked properly with other types of Accounts, but not with Facebook account configuration, it shows nothing.but account configured properly. why?
[14:24] <Sly> Ahah thank seveas, I was wating to see if there was anything but people quitting :D
[14:24] <cfhowlett> Sly, sister cleo has gone home for the night, so you'll have to actually explain things
[14:24] <Guest98027> here is the link to comments http://www.reddit.com/comments/35bde0/hurry_and_get_a_limited_run_redditors_for_nepal/
[14:24] <Seveas> cfhowlett: she's just getting coffee, she'll be back soon :)
[14:24] <cfhowlett> Guest98027, no problems here.
[14:24] <Sly> So, I have installed an Ubuntu verion on an USB pen
[14:24] <cfhowlett> no music either
[14:24] <Johnny_Linux> el oh el
[14:25] <Guest98027> cfhowlett, http://pixel.redditmedia.com/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.redditorsfornepal.com%2Fredditorsfornepal&hash=7938cf70a791a3c11d41a4778f8a900e4bb49c29&id=t3_35bde0- opeenned this link?
[14:25] <Sly> I had an algorithm on that and it needed the opencv package to work
[14:25] <a7i3n> exit
[14:25] <cfhowlett> Guest98027, yep.  no issues
[14:25] <Sly> after a long time, me and a friend of mine achieved making it work
[14:25] <MonkeyDust> Sly  keep your qsuestion in one line, it's easier to read and repeat
[14:25] <Sly> Ok
[14:26] <Sly> I'll make it simple and I'll cut all the "bla"
[14:27] <MonkeyDust> Sly  you said it's quick, but after many lines, you still havent said anything
[14:27] <Sly> I have to clone the contents of the USB pen I installed ubunt on, and install it in another USB pen. This way, I aim to have two identical USB pens
[14:28] <Seveas> Sly: rsync to the rescue. Or dd if the usb drives are the same.
[14:28] <mate__> hi guys im the guy that had problems with a reddit link. I openned it again with firefox and I had to reboot.. Does it happen to anyone else?
[14:28] <Sly> Both usb drive has the same size
[14:29] <Kardos> mate__, fully updated linux & firefox? it could be an ancient bug being exploited
[14:29] <Sly> So dd if=usb1path of=usb2path or something like that? Because I already tried but then I can't boot from the second usb
[14:29] <Seveas> Sly: then dd is easiest. Plug them both in and sudo dd if=/dev/the_source_device of=/dev/the_destination_device bs=16384
[14:29] <Seveas> can't boot how? Can't find the root filesystem?
[14:29] <Kardos> Sly: you'll want to use /dev/sdx and /dev/sdy, without any '1' or '2'... eg, entire device, not partitions
[14:30] <mate__> Kardos, Yes I'm updated with firefox 38.0 today i just did update && update and nothing to do.
[14:30] <Seveas> You may need to update the fstab on the new one, device uuid's may change
[14:30] <TJ-> fstab won't need changing; it contains file-system IDs, not device IDs
[14:31] <Seveas> you sure?
[14:31] <Seveas> (I'm not :))
[14:31] <mate__> I will not try in safemode.
[14:31] <mate__> now*
[14:31] <Sly> Seveas: I did the command you suggest and it worked fine (no size error as in a previous go), but now if I select the USB Drive in the boot screen, it keeps telling me it's empty or that it doesn't find something.. anyway, it doesn't boot
[14:32] <Kardos> mate__ hmmmmm does it happen with chromium/chrome/konqueror/opera/etc?
[14:32] <Seveas> Sly: those two errors are very different. What's the exact error?
[14:32] <mate__> Kardos, just tried safemode everytthing loaded fine!
[14:33] <Kardos> aha, perhaps some extensions?
[14:34] <mate__> Kardos, okay it was ublock most probably just tried to open it with chromium and i get that the page was blocked... I was having ublock also on firefox  I will now disable it on firefox
[14:35] <Kardos> well it shouldn't take out your system. worst case (in theory) firefox should crash
[14:35] <Kardos> so you still may have a legit bug on your hands
[14:35] <Sly> Seveas: I'd have to boot it and look for it. I'm going to; but if I had to pick one, I'd say that i typed the wrong command. I'm almost sure that I used sdc1 and sdd1 instead of sdc and sdd
[14:36] <Sly> Could it be the problem?
[14:36] <Kardos> yes because you didn't copy the partition table to sdd
[14:36] <Kardos> if you create the same partition table on sdd that exists on sdc, and THEN copy sdc1 to sdd1, that would probably work
[14:36] <ioria> Sly  try with conv=notrunc,noerror option at the end
[14:36] <Sly> Ok, going to try again with sdd and sdc only
[14:36] <Sly> thank you both :)
[14:38] <Sly> (so, just to be sure,  sudo dd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/sdd bs=16384 ? Is bs?16384 mandatory?)
[14:39] <Sly> *bs=16384
[14:39] <Seveas> it'll speed up the process
[14:39] <ioria> block size
[14:39] <Kardos> make sure the sdc and sdd are correct ;)
[14:40] <Seveas> Kardos++
[14:40] <TJ-> Sly: default blocksize (bs) is 512 bytes; I usually set it as "bs=10M" (10MB) to make the process fast
[14:40] <Kardos> they can change between reboots
[14:40]  * Kardos is now one more than he was
[14:40] <Seveas> Kardot
[14:40] <Seveas> next up is Kardou :)
[14:40] <Kardos> lol ;) if I was a cstring i'd just be ardos
[14:41] <gp5st> I get "gpg: can't open `': No such file or director" when I  `gpg --export --armor 030561BEDD45F6C3 | sudo apt-key add` and I'm not sure what's wrong
[14:42] <Rory> backticks intentional?
[14:42] <Seveas> gp5st: add a - to the end
[14:42] <Seveas> ... apt-key add -
[14:42] <gp5st> Seveas: oi
[14:42] <gp5st> has that changed or did I just forget? I thought it always read from stdin?
[14:42] <Seveas> you forgot
[14:43] <gp5st> :)
[14:43] <TJ-> gp5st: The "-" means "read input from /dev/stdin not a regular file" - which you need when piping the output of one command into the stdin of another like that
[14:44] <gp5st> TJ-: I know, but it's also common for commands to read from stdin when no files are specified
[14:44] <EriC^^> gp5st: i don't think --armor is needed
[14:45] <Dreddy> dprc: do you have any tips on sed guides?
[14:45] <DexterF> hi
[14:45] <Seveas> Dreddy: there's a good sed&awk book from oreilly
[14:45] <EriC^^> gp5st: i don't think it has to do with the "-"
[14:45] <EriC^^> ( it's a gpg error not apt )
[14:46] <Kardos> mate_, crash again?
[14:46] <Dreddy> Seveas: are you referring to Master Regular Expressions ?
[14:46] <gp5st> EriC^^: ? apt is calling gpg, and yes, the - at the end fixed it. --armor may or may not be default, but it doesn't hurt have it
[14:46] <Seveas> Dreddy: no, thought that's excellent too
[14:46] <EriC^^> gp5st: ok, great
[14:46] <Seveas> Dreddy: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596003524.do
[14:46] <DexterF> is btrfs ok with ssds? I read somewhere due to snapshot management it can go heavy on them. true?
[14:47] <ngochai> Hi guys, how do I tell my upstart script to start after apache2?
[14:47] <MonkeyDust> Dreddy  https://quickleft.com/blog/command-line-tutorials-sed-awk/
[14:47] <Dreddy> thanks
[14:48] <ngochai> after apache2 means when it's fully started
[14:48] <Seveas> ngochai: you don't. apache2 isn't started as an upstart unit so upstart can't have it as dependency.
[14:49] <Seveas> ngochai: also, upstart is dead. As of 15.04, systemd rules the world.
[14:50] <DexterF> Seveas: oh? I didn't even hear that on the IT news. Does that go for all ubuntus?
[14:50] <cfhowlett> !systemd | DexterF
[14:50] <Seveas> DexterF: I believe so, though I only use the original Ubuntu myself.
[14:51] <cfhowlett> DexterF, yes all *buntus
[14:51] <auronandace> obviously ubuntu will continue to support upstart for 14.04 lts until it's support ends
[14:52] <DexterF> cfhowlett: good to know. how Canonical changed their mind? I'm the first to cheer for more unification int he linux world on base levels, with all discussion about systemd, but at least you don't have to reinvent your approaches of system management everytime you switch to another environment
[14:53] <Seveas> DexterF: Debian chose upstart, Ubuntu chose to follow suit
[14:53] <Seveas> err s/upstart/systemd/ (I'm an idiot)
[14:53] <mohamedtouj> hi
[14:54] <mohamedtouj> i have a problem
[14:54] <JNixx> What's the problem?
[14:54] <cfhowlett> !ask | mohamedtouj
[14:55] <DexterF> well, in terms of base maintenance probably a good idea. I should really look into systemd's inner workings and read up on the criticism.
[14:55] <mate_> Kardos, I think it is the display driver I have the propietary driver. I will change to the opensource I have amd.
[14:56] <DexterF> I'd appreciate a balanced article on what's with systemd
[14:56] <Kardos> mate_, cool ;)
[14:56] <DexterF> what's next? wayland instead of Mir?
[14:59] <DexterF> mate_: the open amd driver is said to be quite good these days, if you're not hellbent on max 3d perf
[14:59] <Pici> /70
[15:00] <mate_> DexterF, I didnt use it cause I want to clone the screen. When I do it I get low resolution.
[15:07] <impo> join #jangouts
[15:10] <mate_> okay I installed opensource drivers and I don't have any problems!
[15:12] <mrdotb> express
[15:12] <skinux> How do I get executable bit set on things like JAR files?
[15:12] <skinux> Everytime I try to set the permission, ubuntu automatically resets it.
[15:14] <befluel> ciao
[15:14] <befluel> hi all
[15:15] <pavlos> skinux, http://askubuntu.com/questions/270172/how-can-i-make-a-jar-file-executable
[15:15] <OerHeks> skinux, sounds like that .jar is on ntfs ?
[15:16] <Guest40802> alguien español??
[15:16] <OerHeks> !es | Guest40802
[15:17] <_ingsoc> Does anyone know why GNU IceCat isn't in the repos?
[15:19] <auronandace> _ingsoc: wasn't icecat made due to a licensing/trademark issue
[15:19] <OerHeks> _ingsoc, because icecat is a Gnuzilla derivative of the Mozilla Application Suite, install/build it manually
[15:19] <OerHeks> https://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/
[15:20] <_ingsoc> OerHeks: But why must I install/build manually? It's perfectly fine piece of software and should be in the repositories.
[15:20] <_ingsoc> Especially now that Firefox has sold out and doomed everything. We can't use the Internet properly anymore. What good is Ubuntu?
[15:21] <bazhang> _ingsoc, take that to #ubuntu=offtopic
[15:21] <OerHeks> "Firefox has sold out and doomed everything." ,.... !fud
[15:21] <_ingsoc> Okay, let me retract that. I rectract it. Is it possible to get GNU IceCat into the repos?
[15:21] <bazhang> no
[15:21] <OerHeks> _ingsoc, no, due to license issues
[15:22] <_ingsoc> License issues?
[15:22] <bazhang> read the link given yet _ingsoc
[15:23] <OerHeks> _ingsoc, you are free to build it yourself, ubuntu = freedom :-D
[15:23] <_ingsoc> Ubuntu was freedom, man.
[15:23] <bazhang> _ingsoc, thats enough
[15:24] <_ingsoc> I'm sorry, but I can't retract that. I remember!
[15:24] <_ingsoc> But anyway, I'm here about GNU IceCat.
[15:24] <cfhowlett> _ingsoc, asked and answered.  time to move on.
[15:25] <_ingsoc> Wow, I'm reading it now.
[15:25] <_ingsoc> Can I cuss in here?
[15:25] <nkparadox> Hello i got an issue with java and android studio! I tried it with openjdk-8 oracle jdk 7 and 8! When i run android studio htop says that some java uses all the cpu! Anyone know work arounds?
[15:26] <OerHeks> nkparadox, is using all the cpu bad?
[15:27] <nkparadox> OerHeks, ofc when the pc slows down it is! Uses all the cpu even when idle!
[15:28] <Fjorgynn> java...
[15:28] <nneul> Is it safe to snapshot "/dists" of a mirror independently of "/pool"?   I'm trying to get a snapshot of updates to be installed for a multi-tier update process (devel/production) - where I snapshot/mirror at a point in time.
[15:29] <nkparadox> Fjorgynn, i know right! but i got some android exersices for university
[15:29] <Fjorgynn> never used android studio
[15:29] <nneul> What I don't know is - does pool contain all of the updates that might have been referenced - or if there are multiple updates 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 for a package - will any be removed?
[15:29] <OerHeks> nkparadox, some complain about "IntelliJ was re indexing my whole drive " i don't know
[15:30] <OerHeks> nkparadox,  try "Power Save" option in the File Menu
[15:32] <Fjorgynn> :)
[15:33] <MichaelJCaboose> Hello, I have a question
[15:33] <MonkeyDust> MichaelJCaboose  let's hear it, in one line
[15:33] <MichaelJCaboose> What is a ASN.1 Structures? It sounds important.
[15:33] <nkparadox> OerHeks, i believe that this option disables everything from highlighting to autocomplete so this is not my solution
[15:34] <MonkeyDust> MichaelJCaboose  this is the ubuntu support channel, sure you came to the right place?
[15:34] <ScriptMonkey00> Anyone here willing/able to help with a chromium Ubuntu question (chromebook running Ubuntu with crouton)
[15:35] <MichaelJCaboose> It's a serious question, I'm curious as to what it does. It showed up in Update Manager
[15:36] <k1l> MichaelJCaboose: what package?
[15:36] <MonkeyDust> MichaelJCaboose  "Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) is a standard and notation that describes rules and structures for representing, encoding, transmitting, and decoding data in telecommunications and computer networking. " ... now take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:36] <luckybunny> MichaelJCaboose: I have no idea. Update Manager doesn't tell you what a package is, just a vague non-name and a description. That's why if I see anything I don't recognise in there, I open Synaptic for a better idea
[15:36] <TJ-> MichaelJCaboose: It's a formal abstract data structure notation, used in things like TLS X509 certificates, and other places. Very obtuse and hard to get correct
[15:40] <ioria> nkparadox, what version you have of Android Studio  ?
[15:40] <nkparadox> ioria, latest
[15:41] <ScriptMonkey00> guess not, thanks anyway :)
[15:41] <ioria> nkparadox, and auto complete not working in Power Save mode ?
[15:46] <lv_> i ran do-release-upgrade from 14.10 to 15.04 and have not been able to boot normally.... only way I can is to hit grub -> advanced ubuntu and select the upstart mode.... anyone else getting this issue?
[15:47] <k1l> lv_: see the logs why systemd is not booting. (systemd is standard init now from 15.04 on)
[15:48] <k1l> lv_: most cases so far are wrong fstab entries which were just ignored by upstart but systemd is picky on that topic
[15:53] <lv_> k1l:
[15:53] <lv_> k1l: where am I going to see the logs for this?
[15:55] <toothe> is there a *current* guide for installing roundcube on Ubuntu?
[15:56] <k1l> lv_: look into /var/log and see if the dmesg /syslog from the last reboot is still there (dmesg.o or dmesg.1)
[15:59] <MonkeyDust> toothe  are you running a server? if yes, there's also #ubuntu-server
[15:59] <toothe> ahh, thanks
[16:08] <ioria> lv_ look at /var/log/boot.log
[16:08] <stangeland> Why is du | sort | less not sorting according to HDD usage?
[16:10] <nkparadox> ioria i can test this because when i open a project usage goes over 350% making pc really slow
[16:12] <tgm4883> stangeland: try 'du | sort -n | less'
[16:13] <tgm4883> stangeland: because I'm assuming that it's sorting by exactly what you told it to do, which is by the first character
[16:14] <ioria> nkparadox, you mean "you can't" ?
[16:16] <ReGiStRaS> hey guys...I'm installing NIS server on Ubuntu and now following the guide from this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNISHowTo
[16:17] <ReGiStRaS> it says " 2. Add the following line to hosts.allow: portmap ypserv ypbind : list of IP addresses" "Where the "list of IP addresses" string is, you need to make a list of IP addresses that consists of the server and all clients. These have to be IP addresses because of a limitation in portmap (it doesn't like hostnames)."
[16:17] <ReGiStRaS> so what should by the syntax if I want to add both server and client?
[16:19] <ReGiStRaS> portmap ypserv ypbind : 10.10.1.203 << NIS Server
[16:19] <ReGiStRaS> portmap ypserv ypbind : 10.11.1.10 << NIS client
[16:19] <tgm4883> ReGiStRaS: that looks right to me
[16:21] <jay_> hey there, has anyoneseen daftykins today?
[16:21] <k1l> jay_: just ask the question and people will see if they can help
[16:22] <jay_> he has been helping me for like 2 days now
[16:22] <jay_> lol
[16:27] <rootsandculture> hi, I'm searching for info on the web but no luck, maybe you can help me here
[16:28] <rootsandculture> I installed Google Earth on 14.04.2, it runs fine finally
[16:29] <rootsandculture> but cannot make GE looks integrated visually
[16:29] <BZWingZero> I'm having trouble mapping a smb share located on my ubuntu 14.04 LTS server from my windows computer on the same lan. This is how my smb.conf is set: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11132855/
[16:29] <toothe> Hi! Is there a *current* guide to installing Roundcube on Ubuntu? I keep getting a "unable to connect to database" error.
[16:29] <toothe> #Ubuntu-server is #idle :-(
[16:30] <rootsandculture> is there any way to make it visually integrated on GTK?
[16:31] <dauntless888> hi
[16:32] <ioria> BZWingZero, there are several ways to configure samba, but i think you need a [global] section first
[16:32] <BZWingZero> ioria, here's the strange part: it was working last week and I have made zero changes.
[16:32] <dauntless888> Anyone familiar with SSMTP using no auth?
[16:33] <toothe> that exists?
[16:33] <dauntless888> kind of what I was wondering
[16:34] <ioria> BZWingZero, you paste just the tail of smb.conf or it's all there ?
[16:34] <BZWingZero> ioria, the global section is unmodified from the smb.conf defaults.
[16:34] <ioria> BZWingZero, you paste just the tail of smb.conf or it's all there ?
[16:34] <BZWingZero> I just pasted the part I added myself
[16:36] <dauntless888> If there is anyone familiar with SSMTP, ping me. Trying to use no auth for google’s restricted gmail smtp server aspmx.l.google.com, http://linux.die.net/man/5/ssmtp.conf
[16:36] <dauntless888> Tried `AuthUser=` and it fails.
[16:37] <dauntless888> Its working fine with auth...
[16:37] <ioria> BZWingZero, well,  something changed in nginx, then
[16:37] <BZWingZero> ioria, output of testparm: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11132980/
[16:37] <BZWingZero> ioria, why would something in nginx changing effect my being able to map a folder?
[16:37] <ioria> BZWingZero, permission
[16:40] <BZWingZero> ioria, can you be a little more specific? I'm not completely fluent in linux permissions and config. Hence setting up a server to learn.
[16:40] <ioria> BZWingZero, you can backup smb.conf , write another smb.conf with  global  and data sections
[16:41] <ioria> BZWingZero, if the problem persists it's not samba
[16:41] <BZWingZero> will do, back in a bit
[16:41] <ioria> BZWingZero, you can use this if you want https://www.liberiangeek.net/2014/07/ubuntu-tips-create-samba-file-server-ubuntu-14-04/
[16:43] <NikLP> so I disabled automount in dconf but nautilus still automounts the hell out of all my drives, what gives? I dont want my win7 paartition mounted tyvm
[16:44] <plasmasnake> hi everyone, i'm using a patched version of unity (i did it myself by using apt-get source, patching it, and building my own debs), but whenever i do an apt-get upgrade it tries to overwrite my patched version even though it has the exact same version number as the one it wants to download - any idea how i can take care of this?
[16:45] <papy> Hi! I'm trying to write to a SD card with dd, but I get "Failed to open... read-only filesystem." The physical lock is not set on the card. What should I look at to troubleshoot this?
[16:45] <EriC^^> plasmasnake: man apt_preferences maybe
[16:45] <k1l> papy: what does the command look like?
[16:46] <papy> k1l: sudo dd bs=4M if=/path/to/image.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
[16:47] <k1l> does dmesg tell about issues?
[16:47] <papy> k1l: EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p2): INFO: recovery required on readonly filesystem
[16:47] <dauntless888> papy: its probably mounted as read only
[16:48] <papy> k1l: EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p2): write access unavailable, cannot proceed
[16:48] <papy> dauntless888: how can I change that?
[16:48] <k1l> are you writing to the partition or to the device?
[16:48] <plasmasnake> EriC^^: thanks i'll check it out.. i know i could "pin" my patched version but that wasn't my preferred solution, since i want to be able to know when an updated version is out so i can download and re-patch it (for the record, i re-enable the system tray to allow me to see my WINE programs)
[16:48] <papy> k1l: device. but the error is about a partition, yes
[16:49] <dauntless888> maybe with: mount -orw,remount /dev/sdb1 (or whatever mount point is)
[16:49] <dauntless888> sudo !!
[16:49] <papy> dauntless888: if thought device had to be unmounted for dd to work
[16:50] <papy> dauntless888: with your command, I get: "mount: can't find /dev/mmcblk0 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab"
[16:50] <dauntless888> what do you see if you just type mount
[16:50] <papy> dauntless888: lots of things, but nothing related to the card
[16:52] <dauntless888> ok, maybe pull card out and then do: ls -la /dev/sd*
[16:52] <dauntless888> then insert card and rerun last command
[16:52] <dauntless888> noting differences
[16:53] <papy> dauntless888: ok 1mn
[16:53] <mkanyicy> hi guys, im using kubuntu 15.04 and im very impressed by it, but now i rebooted today and the desktop is pitch black, there is no panel nothing
[16:54] <Dr-007> in what file does the cron outputs its errors?
[16:54] <Dr-007> my cron is running. i can see that in /var/log/syslog
[16:54] <papy> dauntless888: no change. only difference is that /dev/mmcblk0{,p1,p2} gets added.
[16:54] <Dr-007> but it is not executing a command thats in the cron
[16:55] <papy> dauntless888: (I mean no change to the ls -a /dev/sd* command)
[16:55] <EriC^^> Dr-007: append >> /tmp/cronlog to the command 2>&1
[16:56] <EriC^^> Dr-007: <command> >> /tmp/cronlog 2>&1
[16:56] <mkanyicy> hi guys, im using kubuntu 15.04 and im very impressed by it, but now i rebooted today and the desktop is pitch black, there is no panel nothing
[16:57] <dauntless888> papy: I think what may be going on is that your system has read only access to the partition type. You probably need to remove the partition by formatting
[16:58] <dauntless888> maybe do a sudo fidsk -l to get more info
[16:59] <papy> dauntless888: fdisk -l gets me some info but I don't see anything relevant? just physical information and partition information.
[17:00] <dauntless888> mind pasting that?
[17:00] <papy> dauntless888: http://pastebin.com/ruYA7sE0
[17:01] <dauntless888> papy: if you dont care about data oan the SD I would format it
[17:01] <papy> dauntless888: just tried with gparted. couldn't because read-only
[17:04] <ReGiStRaS> hey guys...I'm installing NIS server on Ubuntu and now following the guide from this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNISHowTo
[17:04] <ReGiStRaS> it says " 2. Add the following line to hosts.allow: portmap ypserv ypbind : list of IP addresses" "Where the "list of IP addresses" string is, you need to make a list of IP addresses that consists of the server and all clients. These have to be IP addresses because of a limitation in portmap (it doesn't like hostnames)."
[17:04] <ReGiStRaS> it this step necessary?
[17:07] <alazare619> having a problem with a upstart script
[17:08] <EriC^^> alazare619: what's the problem?

[17:11] <Synx|hm> How do i re-enable 3rd party repos after a release upgrade on ubuntu server? I've tried re-adding the PPA's with add-apt-repository however its creates the files commented out, even if i uncomment they dont update when i update the repos
[17:11] <General-Nemo> Hola!
[17:11] <ReGiStRaS> hey guys...I'm installing NIS server on Ubuntu and now following the guide from this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNISHowTo
[17:11] <k1l> Synx|hm: open the file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and uncomment the line again by removing the # at the beginning
[17:11] <ReGiStRaS> it says " 2. Add the following line to hosts.allow: portmap ypserv ypbind : list of IP addresses" "Where the "list of IP addresses" string is, you need to make a list of IP addresses that consists of the server and all clients.

[17:11] <ReGiStRaS> it this step necessary?
[17:12] <Synx|hm> k1l: ok, i did that and didn't see the PPA in the list when i did a apt-get update but i'll try again, anyway to remove the default commenting out behavior now, i dont believe that was happeneing before with add-apt-repo
[17:13] <k1l> Synx|hm: i am not talking about the sources.list file. i am talking about the directory where the ppas are stored
[17:13] <Synx|hm> k1l: as am i
[17:13] <Synx|hm> ;)
[17:14] <k1l> Synx|hm: ok :)
[17:15] <TJ-> alazare619: Have you checked "man start-stop-daemon" or "start-stop-daemon --help" for the valid options?
[17:15] <alazare619> the start stop daemon part is valid
[17:15] <alazare619> its the fact its trying to take --daemon
[17:15] <alazare619> as part of stop stop daemon instead of the start/stop command
[17:16] <Dr-007> EriC^^, thanks. that gives more insight
[17:16] <EriC^^> Dr-007: great, np
[17:16] <Dr-007> now this. the error its giving me is because inside the cron it is not recognizing my custom file in the sbin directory
[17:16] <Dr-007> so it tells me the command is missing
[17:17] <Dr-007> does the cron ignore the sbin directory?
[17:17] <TJ-> alazare619: And that's because you've ignored the valid options. "-S" is a command but you've got options immediately after it. Move it to in front of the command itself
[17:18] <alazare619> in the upstart i have the -S
[17:18] <TJ-> alazare619: quoting: "Usage: start-stop-daemon [<option> ...] <command>"
[17:18] <alazare619> yea i have -S tho
[17:19] <TJ-> alazare619: Commands are -{S,K,T,H,V}
[17:19] <alazare619> yes i have -S tho im not seeing your point
[17:19] <uczen> jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj
[17:19] <uczen> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[17:19] <TJ-> alazare619: It's in the wrong place! The man pages say it goes *after* all options, and immediately in front of the command to be launched
[17:20] <uczen> karo
[17:20] <alazare619> the command to go belaunched is /usr/bin/python /opt/sickgear/SickBeard.py
[17:21] <alazare619> its not 2 seperate commands its using usr bin python to launch sickbeard.py
[17:21] <alazare619> so should i just wrap the command in a single qoute? '
[17:22] <alazare619> like -S ..... '/usr/bin/pythong /opt/sickgear/Sickbeard.py --its options'
[17:23] <TenLeftFingers> Can anyone help me troubleshoot PCMCIA? I've got a memory card reader that just won't work on 14.04. dmesg shows nothing as does lspcmcia and pccardctl status
[17:24] <TJ-> alazare619: Yes, for "-x", and you'll need to follow it with " --- " to separate the comand's arguments from start-stop-daemon's arguments, too. As per the man page for "-S|--start"

[17:33] <mojtaba> Hi, Is there anyway to have some functionality like lock screen for TTY[1-6]?
[17:35] <Seveas> mojtaba: just log out
[17:35] <MrElendig> mojtaba: there are some, yes
[17:35] <mojtaba> MrElendig: ?
[17:35] <Seveas> MrElendig: such as?
[17:36] <MrElendig> mojtaba: first hit on google: vlock
[17:36] <MrElendig> or you can use screen
[17:37] <mojtaba> MrElendig: how can I do that using screen?
[17:37] <M31> Hello, plebians <3
[17:38] <EriC^^> mojtaba: launch the program in screen, then ctrl+a,ctrl+d, and logout
[17:38] <mojtaba> EriC^^:  MrElendig: thx
[17:38] <EriC^^> screen -r to reattach
[17:38] <MrElendig> screen actually have a keybinding to lock the session
[17:39] <MrElendig> doesn't prevent vt switching though
[17:39] <Crucerio> Hi, I am trying to set up the Brother DCP-7055 printer and scanner, after si
[17:39] <MonkeyDust> !screen | mojtaba
[17:39] <Seveas> ^a x locks screen
[17:39] <Crucerio> sry too early on the enter key
[17:40] <EriC^^> cool
[17:40] <Crucerio> Hi, I am trying to set up the Brother DCP-7055 printer and scanner, after some tries with the sh script delivered from the Brother homepage I can use the scanner but only as root
[17:41] <pavlos> mojtaba, if you prefer logout (not lock), throw this in your bashrc ... if [[ $(tty) =~ /dev\/tty[1-6] ]]; then TMOUT=600; fi       (TMOUT in seconds)
[17:42] <mojtaba> pavlos: thx
[17:42] <Crucerio> anyone having some experience with simple-scan with brother scanners?
[17:43] <dtigue> I've got several files that have spaces in the name and at the end of each file they have [dummy].avi, I've tried using rename to remove the [dummy] part but I'm getting errors, unfortunately I don't know enough about sed to use it. Anyone have any seggustions
[17:43] <EriC^^> dtigue: use rename
[17:44] <Crucerio> or chmod 777
[17:44] <Seveas> dtigue: rename 's/\[dummy\]//' *.avi
[17:45] <EriC^^> dtigue: rename 's/\[dummy\]\.avi$/\.avi/' *.avi
[17:45] <dtigue> EriC^^, I did but it doesn't seem to work
[17:45] <dtigue> EriC^^, ok I'll try that
[17:45] <M31> Does irc post my system user name and computers domain name? Jw :)
[17:46] <Seveas> [M31] (~vlad@208.167.254.52) : Andromeda
[17:46] <M31> hmm, interesting. Thanks! :)
[17:46] <Seveas> though all irc clients let you override the ~vlad part and you can get a cloak to hide the ip address
[17:47] <dtigue> EriC^^, and Seveas - thanks that worked for me. I appreciate the help
[17:49] <ioria> Crucerio have you tried with xsane ?
[17:49] <dtigue> EriC^^, what is the equivalent command using sed? I gotta rename those same folders on a windows machine with cygwin installed. I can do it through ssh, but rename isn't installed
[17:50] <Crucerio> ioria: I am using sane right now and some drivers downloaded from the brother homepage
[17:50] <islandmonkeee> Hi, my laptop (a Lenovo Z500) only has an output port for sound (it has a logo showing a headset next it, but this is where I am unsure) and no input port. This means I cannot hook my synthesiser up to my computer and record what I am doing. Is there anyway to 'fool' this port into acting as an input port for sound?
[17:50] <EriC^^> dtigue: rename is just a perl script
[17:50] <ioria> Crucerio it's not scanning ?
[17:51] <Crucerio> it's only scanning if I start simple-scan with sudo
[17:51] <EriC^^> dtigue: scp it over
[17:52] <Crucerio> thats too complicated for the user I need it to work without any need of terminal commands in the end
[17:52] <EriC^^> Crucerio: that was for dtigue
[17:52] <OerHeks> islandmonkeee, specs say integrades connector for headphone/mic, so it is a 3 way socket. not for ordinairy headphone i guess.
[17:53] <OerHeks> or mic
[17:53] <maarhart> okay what I want to do is to book with my laptop lid closed. with or without external monitor attached, the boot process halts at some point, but the display does not show anything
[17:53] <maarhart> *to boot
[17:53] <maarhart> here is the journalctl log: http://paste.debian.net/177061
[17:54] <islandmonkeee> OerHeks: Let me try again, but I haven't really had any luck with this 'headphone/mic' combo of sorts, so that's why I am asking how I can fool the connector
[17:55] <ioria> Crucerio maybe the last one could work http://superuser.com/questions/298298/scanning-only-works-under-sudo-ubuntu
[17:55] <alazare619> still having problems with this startup
[17:55] <alazare619> upstart*
[17:55] <alazare619> is there a way to see a log of upstart like systemd?
[17:56] <EriC^^> dtigue: you could do it with bash if you want, you there?
[17:56] <OerHeks> islandmonkeee, buy a connector like this http://www.amazon.co.uk/3-5mm-Headphone-Earphone-Microphone-Splitter/sim/B002JV4M5C/2
[17:56] <OerHeks> island still it is a mic, not line in, you cannot fool hardware.
[17:57] <jMyles> Some years ago, PulseAudio over the network worked perfectly for me.  Now it eventually cuts out, and I can't seem to figure out why.  What can I do to diagnose?
[17:57] <dtigue> EriC^^, yea I'm still around, I copied over rename and it seems to work just fine, but when I look at the files they are still the same
[17:58] <alazare619> exec start-stop-daemon -S -c sickgear:sickgear -k 007 -x python2.7 /opt/sickgear/SickBeard.py -- -q --nolaunch --datadir=/media/poolr5/home/sickgear/.config/sickgear/
[17:58] <islandmonkeee> OerHeks: I wasn't looking to fool hardware, I was seeing what I could do with PulseAudio/ALSA
[17:58] <alazare619> that just straight crashes
[17:58] <raheel> hi there guys i need urgent help job is at stake
[17:58] <EriC^^> dtigue: do you have write permission? are they .avi or .AVI ?
[17:58] <alazare619> if i single woute from pythong2.7 to the end of the .py it still fails too
[17:59] <EriC^^> dtigue: are you running it in the dir you have the files in?
[17:59] <raheel> cannot configure squid in transparent mode need to do it now
[17:59] <dtigue> they are .avi and yes I have write permission
[17:59] <dtigue> EriC^^, and yes I am in the correct dir
[17:59] <raheel> have really tried every thing googling did not work since the last three days
[18:00] <TJ-> raheel: configuring squid for transparent is a one-line setting. Do you really mean, you've not got the hang of the netfilters redirection rules set by iptables?
[18:01] <raheel> i basically followed three steps 1. enabled ip fwding   2. changed http_port to 3128 intercept  3. added iptables rule iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i wlan0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128
[18:01] <raheel> TJ- i have really tried i just dont know what i am missing time is flying that is the problem.
[18:01] <Crucerio> ioria: thx for this link, I will test those suggestions and in future I will use printservers, this incompatibility problems are still annoying ;)
[18:01] <bytesaber> I am testing network equipment, via eth0.  I am manually setting the ip networks I need to eth0.  However something keeps resetting eth0 to blank after a short time.  Any ideas?
[18:01] <raheel> have setup the iptables too.
[18:01] <EriC^^> dtigue: does rename have +x ?
[18:02] <ioria> Crucerio good luck !
[18:02] <dtigue> EriC^^, I appreciate your help, but I'm at work, and it's my lunch break. I will be back in an hour though, maybe if you aren't too busy then we can continue, and yes rename is executable, I have a lot of problems with certain commands in cygwin, I might need to go to that channel and talk to those guys
[18:02] <raheel> it is not working on centos or ubuntu there is some thing missing. i want to know if you can help me find it out
[18:02] <EriC^^> dtigue: try for i in *.avi; do mv "$i" "${i%\[dummy\]\.avi}"\.avi
[18:03] <EriC^^> dtigue: try for i in *.avi; do mv "$i" "${i%\[dummy\]\.avi}"\.avi ; done
[18:03] <raheel> any one?
[18:03] <dtigue> ok I'll give it a shot when I get back from lunch, thanks
[18:03] <dtigue> EriC^^, ^^^^^^
[18:04] <EriC^^> dtigue: ok, no problem
[18:04] <TJ-> raheel: What port do you have squid listening on, 3128? Does it proxy requests if you set it as an explicit proxy in the clients ?
[18:04] <TJ-> raheel: That will confirm that squid is OK, then you can focus on the netfilters rules
[18:04] <dtigue> EriC^^, just ran it real quick, that worked! When all else fails, use bash scripting huh?
[18:04] <EriC^^> :D
[18:05] <raheel> TJ  if the client use 3128 as the port then squid is working fine and shows activity if they change their proxy setting to none then no activity at all in squid.
[18:06] <raheel>  i think the problem is somewhere in iptables. have tried a lot of configuration but none of them worked.
[18:06] <raheel> how do i find out if say this rule iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i wlan0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128 is in effect
[18:06] <TJ-> raheel: Is squid on a network router?
[18:07] <raheel> iptables -L does not display any change
[18:07] <TJ-> raheel: that's because you're adding the rule to the *nat* table but only listing the *filter* table. Try "sudo iptables -t nat -vL"
[18:07] <raheel> TJ nope it is on a simple PC running ubuntu server and squid. i am logged into it right now
[18:08] <TJ-> raheel: Do you want squid to proxy for the same host it runs on, or for packets being forwarded for other hosts on the network?
[18:08] <raheel> yeah that shows the nat entries
[18:10] <raheel> tJ i want squid to proxy packets being forwaded by other hosts. i have two nics eth0  is connected to the internet router with dhcp and eth1 is connected to the outdoor cpe connecting wireless clients. it is for them that i want to setup squid transparently
[18:10] <raheel> got it>
[18:10] <raheel> got it ?

[18:10] <Rust3dCor3> hi. is there any sprite converter. i have a couple spr files in my hdd and i want to change them to png or jpg. I was looking a lot (maybe not too much). is there any native spr convertor around the linux universe?

[18:13] <raheel> TJ??? still there
[18:15] <TJ-> raheel: Looks like you've got repeated rules there; won't hurt, but unnecessary.
[18:15] <TJ-> raheel: Also, you should use "-vL" since it shows the complete rule spec, not the pretty version that ommits sometimes crucial parameters
[18:16] <MonkeyDust> raheel  next, use a !pastebin
[18:16] <MonkeyDust> raheel  next time, use a !pastebin
[18:17] <raheel> ok
[18:19] <raheel> there is some problem with he damn iptable rules
[18:21] <TJ-> raheel: You didn't answer my question:
[18:21] <TJ-> raheel: Do you want squid to proxy for the same host it runs on, or for packets being forwarded for other hosts on the network?
[18:22] <raheel> TJ-for the same host it runs on
[18:23] <TJ-> raheel: And you've confirmed that squid will accept redirects from localhost, via the http_access_allow directive?
[18:23] <Demi2> salutations!
[18:25] <Demi2> hello!
[18:25] <raheel> my setting is http_access allow all
[18:25] <MonkeyDust> Demi2  it works, we see you
[18:25] <Demi2> so i have a question, i am about to post in the forums as well.
[18:26] <k1l_> Demi2: this chat is seperated from the forums. just ask it here and give details.
[18:26] <TJ-> raheel: OK, so, clear out the existing rules, then the netfilters rule should be: "sudo  iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i wlan0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128"
[18:26] <Demi2> does anyone here have any experience with request tracker? I am attempting to research it's potential as a ticketing system to be implemented behind a footprints ticketing system installation
[18:27] <raheel> iptables --flush is not clearing the PREROUTING rules which are still accessible using iptables -t nat -vL
[18:27] <raheel> TJ-iptables --flush is not clearing the PREROUTING rules which are still accessible using iptables -t nat -vL
[18:28] <YamakasY1> damn my server is messed up, it boots but the partition table is doing weird, I cannot do an apt-get upgrade as there is no space left on device (which is)
[18:28] <YamakasY1> but all services run great
[18:29] <Guest3976> Howdy. I'm trying to get my computer working again after moving to a new house. Strangely, when I try to start it up, I get a kernel panic. I've had no luck finding the appropriate log, which would probably be helpful. Would y'all please help me fix this? I miss my precious.
[18:29] <frenda> I'm asking for a software to mange my ideas!?
[18:29] <frenda> I have an idea --> I can not make it real currently because of some reason such as money --> days come and go --> Now I can run that idea, but it's forgotten!
[18:30] <raheel> TJ-added that rule you mentioned. iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i wlan0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128"
[18:30] <MonkeyDust> frenda  simply create a text file with ideas, or use a pen and paper
[18:31] <raheel> here is the output of iptables -t nat -vL
[18:31] <OerHeks> frenda, libre office writer?
[18:31] <raheel> Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)

[18:31] <Guest3976> frenda: For my part I'm assuming text files in appropriate folders haven't sufficed. Have you considered sticky notes? In a software sense.
[18:31] <daftykins> frenda: paper and pen i find are excellent, not prone to hardware failure or other such woes
[18:31] <k1l_> !paste | raheel

[18:34] <Guest3976> That explains the lack of reply.
[18:34] <raheel> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11134342/
[18:34] <raheel> is that what you want
[18:36] <Guest3976> Perhaps another tack. If I install the latest lubuntu over my present install, should that clear up the bootup kernel panic, and will I lose anything?
[18:38] <Jordan_U> Guest3976: Do you see an error message at boot? If so, what is it exactly? (If needed, please take a picture of the screen with the kernel panic and post it).
[18:39] <Guest3976> (Ugh. Not many cameras about.) Is there a log somewhere I can't find?
[18:39] <raheel> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11134342/
[18:40] <Guest3976> Jordan_U: (Ugh. Not many cameras about.) Is there a log somewhere I can't find?
[18:41] <ioria> Guest3976, did  you have kern panic during installation or what ?
[18:41] <Guest3976> ioria: Nope, during boot. It used to work fine before the move.
[18:41] <ioria> ram,maybe
[18:42] <ioria> Guest3976, it'a a laptop or desktop ?
[18:42] <Guest3976> ioria: That'd be bad. Also odd. I can use another OS installed on the same box, though admittedly on a different hard drive.
[18:42] <Guest3976> ioria: desktop.
[18:42] <yaccin> HII there
[18:43] <ioria> Guest3976, check  if ram banks are fixed and reseat them
[18:43] <Guest3976> ioria: Anything else I can try before I shut down and lose this chat window?
[18:43] <Guest3976> ioria: Same computer, you see.
[18:45] <Guest3976> ioria: Mostly just so I can have a few different things queued up to try out, in case RAM isn't the problem.
[18:45] <ioria> Guest3976, i see
[18:46] <DammitJim> if I want to keep samba from updating when doing an apt-get update, is apt-mark hold samba the best way to block that from happening?
[18:46] <ioria> Guest3976, if you can pass to a terminal you can check with sudo fdisk -l
[18:46] <ioria> Guest3976, and manually mount partitions,
[18:46] <Guest3976> ioria: Pass to a terminal?
[18:47] <ioria> Guest3976, ctrl-alt-f2
[18:48] <ioria> Guest3976, but it's a bit complicated you have to sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev , chroot and then update-initramfs -u -v  grub-install --recheck /dev/sda update-grub
[18:49] <DammitJim> also, how do I keep dependent packages of samba from getting updated
[18:49] <Guest3976> ioria: Any problem with doing it from a terminal emulator?
[18:49] <ioria> Guest3976, if you have back up maybe it's easiyer a fresh install
[18:50] <Guest3976> ioria: No backup at present.
[18:50] <ubuntuanother> Ununtu Mate looks perfect, going to install it and give it a good test
[18:50] <ioria> Guest3976, check the ram first :-)
[18:51] <Guest3976> ioria: Fair enough.
[18:51] <Guest3976> ioria: So the present course of action is to check the RAM, then if that fails, what?
[18:52] <ubuntuanother> Is everyone here using Ubuntu Mate?
[18:52] <Guest3976> ubuntuanother: Nah, I'm using lubuntu.
[18:52] <Guest3976> ubuntuanother: Does Mate fit on a CD?
[18:53] <ioria> Guest3976, you should give the exact error and then try to mount manually and reinstall grub
[18:53] <ubuntuanother> I have it on a DVD Guest3976
[18:53] <pavlos> ubuntuanother, have it on a vm
[18:53] <Guest3976> ubuntuanother: DVD be spendy, yo. I'll stick with an OS that fits on a CD for now.
[18:53] <dawood> hi
[18:54] <OerHeks> re-use an usb-stick, much cheaper and ready for new versions too.
[18:54] <dawood> do u speak english?
[18:54] <Guest3976> ioria: Okay. And to manually mount, you're suggesting I get to the kernel panic, then ctrl-alt-f2 to open tty2?
[18:54] <dawood> ?
[18:54] <Guest3976> ioria: Or is this something I could do from another install?
[18:55] <ubuntuanother> Guest3976, Honestly, I can't remember the size of the ISO image, But this detected my wifi right away and it's fast running off DVD
[18:55] <Guest3976> OerHeks: I always seem to lose them. My last one just stopped working.
[18:55] <dawood> i am new to this
[18:55] <Guest3976> ubuntuanother: Lubuntu never seems to give me any trouble, and it boots pretty fast. It's a nice blank slate I can screw up myself rather than having a bunch of noise pre-installed.
[18:55] <Guest3976> Well, ALMOST never gives me trouble...
[18:56] <Guest3976> Today being a significant exception.
[18:56] <dawood> what is this app all about?
[18:56] <OerHeks> dawood, read the topic please, this is ubuntu support
[18:56] <ioria> Guest3976, try from your own installation first
[18:57] <Guest3976> ioria: Understood, I think.
[18:57] <Guest3976> ioria: Well, off I go. I may interrogate you again if I can open a terminal.
[18:57] <pavlos> dawood, this is the ubuntu support channel, if you have a ubuntu-related question, ask.
[18:57] <Guest3976> ioria: Would that be all right?
[18:58] <trol10> hi evrybody here?
[18:58] <ubuntuanother> trol10, yes, 1851 are here
[18:59] <daftykins> trol10: well we lost some, but sometimes they come back
[18:59] <trol10> problem
[19:00] <daftykins> well not especially, but we try to keep them in our hearts
[19:00] <daftykins> trol10: do you have an ubuntu related support question?
[19:01] <Guest3976> Well, here goes.
[19:01] <Jordan_U> Guest3976: What makes you think it's a kernel panic?
[19:01] <trol10> ubuntu 15.04 install drivers nvidia from launcpad and reboot, next boot i login and password, but repeat show login windows help me please(drivers 346 and 349)
[19:01] <Guest3976> Jordan_U: It says so.
[19:01] <Guest3976> Jordan_U: I dearly hope it's honest!
[19:02] <trol10> infinity show login windows i dont login in system
[19:02] <daftykins> trol10: where on launchpad? how?
[19:02] <Jordan_U> Guest3976: Then you won't be able to switch to a terminal, kernel panic means completely dead. The exact error message would be very useful though.
[19:03] <Guest3976> Jordan_U: Can you help me find a log?
[19:03] <trol10> i send you private
[19:03] <Guest3976> Jordan_U: I've got access to the relevant hard drive, but have had no luck finding the blasted thing.
[19:03] <Guest3976> Jordan_U: I assume this is n00b luck.
[19:03] <trol10> please please answer to me)))
[19:04] <daftykins> !pm
[19:04] <trol10> ok
[19:04] <trol10> i am sorry
[19:04] <ioria> Guest3976, sure, if i can
[19:05] <ubuntuanother> I am going to install this now, do I need to close running programs before I do?
[19:05] <Guest3976> ioria: Jordan_U says it wouldn't be possible from a kernel panic.
[19:05] <ioria> Guest3976, then try from live
[19:06] <trol10> launchpad ppa nvidia-349
[19:06] <Guest3976> ioria: The mounting, you mean?
[19:06] <Guest3976> ioria: 'Cause I can do that right now.
[19:06] <daftykins> trol10: xorg-edgers or something else?
[19:06] <ioria> Guest3976, what ?
[19:07] <trol10> what?
[19:07] <Guest3976> ioria: You were asking me to try manually mounting a drive. Your most recent suggestion is to try something via a live CD. I'm currently speaking from a live CD.
[19:07] <trol10> ubuntu 15.04 defauult
[19:07] <Guest3976> ioria: Which might mean whatever you're suggesting is something I could try now, before testing the RAM.
[19:08] <Jordan_U> Guest3976: kernel panics usually don't lead messages logged to disk. If the kernel has panic'd then it can't be trusted to safely write to disk (a crashkernel can get around this, but I don't think Ubuntu uses one by default). Also the panic may have been related to a failure to mount your root filesystem, so again logging wouldn't be possible.
[19:08] <trol10> https://launchpad.net/~mamarley/+archive/ubuntu/nvidia
[19:08] <trol10> here drivers
[19:08] <Guest3976> Jordan_U: Ah bloody 'ell, no wonder I can't find it.
[19:08] <ioria> Guest3976, i'd suggest you to check the ram first
[19:09] <trol10> help me
[19:09] <Guest3976> Jordan_U: Failure to mount. That gives me some ideas.
[19:10] <OerHeks> trol10, use the drivers provided by ubuntu, PPA's are not supported
[19:10] <OerHeks> purge those drivers and ppa, with ppa-purge
[19:10] <OerHeks> !ppapurge
[19:11] <OerHeks> trol10, then goto the driver menu, and install nvidia from there
[19:12] <trol10> no
[19:12] <Guest3976> Well... Off I go.
[19:12] <trol10> only property drivers
[19:12] <OerHeks> trol10, the driver menu gives prop. drivers too.
[19:13] <daftykins> trol10: sorry can't support that PPA.
[19:13] <trol10> ok

[19:17] <OerHeks> trol10,  type driver in dash, and a menu icon shows up
[19:17] <pigzilla> trol10: u can install driver from off repository. i suggest free nvidia drivers
[19:17] <OerHeks> but remove that ppa first
[19:18] <trol10> why delete ppa?
[19:18] <cnuber> ok, how do i fix an issue with my screen session wrapping

[19:55] <XenophonF> hi everyone - just want to report that I was able to install Ubuntu 15.04 on my MacBookPro5,1 with the root file system an a LUKS-encrypted ZFS pool
[19:56] <XenophonF> i'm booting it using refind
[19:57] <nemanja> apparently I'm able to chroot but when executing apt-get install linux-image-generic
[19:58] <nemanja> i'm getting  http://paste.ubuntu.com/11135442/
[19:58] <daftykins> XenophonF: be great if you could write it up on the mac wiki pages
[19:58] <HikaruBG> hi guys
[19:58] <ubuntu> \nick
[19:58] <XenophonF> one challenge was replacing nouveau with the nvidia drivers - one must set gfxpayload to "auto" and add "nomodeset" to the kernel command line in the grub boot entry editor, and then during installation one must specify the appropriate nvidia driver package (which automatically replaces nouveau)
[19:59] <XenophonF> another challenge had to do with cryptsetup and initramfs-tools, as /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/cryptroot lacks support for root on encrypted ZFS pools - only LVM
[19:59] <HikaruBG> I am trying to create an Ubuntu virtual machine for development work for one of my friends, and I would like to be a distribution that I will be able to track time on the total working hours of the Ubuntu and the total time span when the user were active
[19:59] <Guest8295> Hi everyone, I have a problem. I've created a persistent live USB (1GB persistence) with Startup Disk Creator. But my settings are not saved upon rebooting. What am I doing wrong?
[20:00] <Guest8295> Ubuntu 15.04, by the way
[20:00] <daftykins> XenophonF: there's no point telling us here, the wiki is where it'd get attention
[20:00] <XenophonF> i had to modify that hook - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/irtnog/helper-scripts/master/ubuntu-15.04/initramfs-tools/hooks/cryptroot
[20:00] <XenophonF> ok, well, thought i'd report back on my (eventual) success - ttyl
[20:01] <VsyachePuz> is there some utility which shows content of clipboard during drag-drop operation (for understanding/debugging) ?

[20:02] <HikaruBG> how can I track work time on Ubuntu?
[20:02] <HikaruBG> Is that possible?
[20:02] <Jordan_U> DJJeff: That to me suggests RAM / disk corruption rather than a bug in winusb.
[20:02] <DJJeff> disk corruption?
[20:02] <DJJeff> ha!
[20:02] <DJJeff> laughable
[20:03] <Jordan_U> DJJeff: OK. Please file a bug report.
[20:03] <DJJeff> I am running ubuntu trusty and using winusb from saucy
[20:03] <k1l_> DJJeff: start a blog for your ranting. or talk to the programmer, which would be more constructive. but in here its not helping anyone
[20:04] <TJ-> DJJeff: does the file size change?
[20:05] <DJJeff> oh no clue cause I just did rm -rf on the iso
[20:05] <DJJeff> to download a fresh copy
[20:05] <tonyyarusso> HikaruBG: There are several programs available for that sort of thing, but I can't recommend a particular one since I haven't had a need for them.  I looked briefly several years ago, and some were pretty slick taskbar applets, but that was in the Gnome 2 days so I don't know what's still available.
[20:06] <HikaruBG> tonyyarusso, do you still know where I can start my search from?
[20:06] <Jordan_U> DJJeff: A binary diff before and after the corruption would be a good thing to add to your bug report.
[20:07] <tomi> hi
[20:08] <tomi> hello
[20:08] <DJJeff> Jordan_U: how do I create a binary diff
[20:10] <HikaruBG> Anyone else to know how can I turn an Ubuntu Desktop into a remote slave machine
[20:10] <tonyyarusso> HikaruBG: Searching apt / Software Center for "track time" or similar should give you a start.  A couple of possibilities from a quick look: arbtt, gnotime, gtimelog, gtimer, hamster-applet, ktimetracker

[20:13] <trol10> ok i delete ppa rep/ and install oficial drivers?
[20:15] <M31> What are the best irc clients that I can use in a bash terminal? Currently using xchat-gnome, not really liking it
[20:15] <PiSteve> nemanja, you have a none pae CPU, that install does not support your CPU (unless you use forcepae)
[20:15] <JNixx> M31: irssi
[20:15] <trol10> yes?
[20:16] <k1l_> M31: try hexchat for gui. which is the "new" xchat. for cli irssi is worth a try
[20:18] <M31> Thanks guys! :)
[20:18] <k1l_> !away > Samul|AWAY
[20:21] <nemanja> PitSteve wtf
[20:21] <nemanja> PitSteve cpu is pae
[20:22] <PiSteve> nemanja, pae is CPU suport for more than 4GB RAM, that ISO image requires a newer CPU, fine the correct ISO for your system
[20:22] <PiSteve> nemanja, I suggest you read your paste again
[20:23] <daftykins> nemanja: you did not set up your earlier chroot again, as per the link i gave of how to chroot properly
[20:23] <daftykins> er, s/again/correctly/
[20:24] <Jordan_U> DJJeff: For this purpose, the best solution is probably to use xxd to get a somewhat human-readable representation of the binary files (corrupted and not) then use diff between the xdd produces files.
[20:25] <nemanja> PiSteve: I'm not using livecd
[20:25] <PiSteve> read line 19
[20:25] <nemanja> I have separate installation  of Ubuntu on 2nd hdd
[20:25] <nemanja> uname -a Linux vividvervet 3.19.0-16-generic #16-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 30 16:09:58 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[20:27] <Jordan_U> DJJeff: So first, after redownloading the iso make a copy of it so you have the original. Then corrupt the iso, and run "xxd good.iso good.xxd" then "xxd corrupt.iso corrupt.xxd" and finally "diff -u good.xxd corrupt.xxd".
[20:28] <DJJeff> too much work
[20:28] <DJJeff> just gonna get a blank DVD from the store
[20:28] <DJJeff> burn it and call it a day
[20:30] <Jordan_U> DJJeff: Please at least file a bug report saying that winff corrupted your file.
[20:31] <DJJeff> you mean winusb
[20:31] <nemanja> daftykins: I followed this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery
[20:31] <sysadmin> a
[20:32] <Jordan_U> DJJeff: Sorry, yes.
[20:32] <nemanja> daftykins: only diff is I'm not booting from livecd
[20:33] <daftykins> nemanja: not? why not?
[20:33] <nemanja> ok - i'll try now
[20:33] <nemanja> but it'
[20:34] <nemanja> it's the same thing livecd or booting from other drive and mounting the same system

[20:51] <trol10> ok
[20:52] <Jordan_U> trol10: How did you remove the ppa that you had before? How did you install the drivers from the default repositories?
[20:52] <Guest11340> jem könnte sprächen persisch?
[20:52] <trol10> in 14.10 everything was fine
[20:53] <trol10> sudo add-apt-repositories --remove ppa:login/directory
[20:53] <trol10> sudo apt-get install nvidia-346
[20:54] <Jordan_U> trol10: Did you first remove the nvidia-346 package? I told you to use ppa-purge, which would have done this automatically.
[20:54] <trol10> ohh no
[20:55] <trol10> before iunistal driver, sudo apt-get purge nvidia* -> delete ppa and install official drivers
[20:56] <trol10> before unistall drivers
[20:56] <tgm4883> apt-get purge is not the same as ppa-purge
[20:57] <trol10> i dont have command ppa-purge
[20:59] <tgm4883> trol10: You should read your messages, OerHeks told you about ppa-purge

[21:14] <ichat> can anyone help me with a quick question ... i ran mini.iso and and was able to pick up mi wifi, than installed just the  lubuntu-minimal ... once booted to the new system i dont have any network manager, no wifi connection no package manager - what am i missing here:P
[21:14] <ichat> and obviously how can i fix it?
[21:15] <PiSteve> 100000000000000000000000000000000 = one hundred nonillion
[21:17] <pythonista> Hi, I am having an issue with updating the mysql package. I accidently restarted while the update manager was running an update and am now having an issue getting mysql to start. Here is a full description of the problem with a print out of the error message: http://askubuntu.com/questions/623797/error-updating-mysql-package
[21:17] <Blueking> just a question..  have zyxel P-2812ac   configured in bredge mode... for some reason it reset every 24 hour, what could be reason for that ?
[21:17] <OerHeks> pythonista, try running updates again, or sudo apt-get install -f
[21:19] <pythonista> OerHeks that was the suggestion I found online (-f forcing the install). Can you explain how that works (I obviously do not want to delete the databases, any other package and I would have already tried that)
[21:19] <ichat> Blueking, that would be a question for #openwrt if your into running that,
[21:19] <Blueking> ichat it's ISP's property
[21:20] <ichat> Blueking, than its up to them to fix it,
[21:20] <hggdh> pythonista: apt-get -f stands for "fix-broken"
[21:20] <OerHeks> pythonista, why explaining? it forces to install again, fixing dependencies errors, or in your case, if something broke/stopped
[21:21] <OerHeks> If you worry about databases, backup. no backup, then your data is not important
[21:21] <ichat> is there a cli way to setup initiate a wifi network if no network-manager gui is present,
[21:22] <OerHeks> ichat you might better ask in #lubuntu
[21:22] <ichat> OerHeks,  ill try thnx
[21:22] <rockstar_> I tried to do Ubuntu usb boot in Asus laptop, didn't work even with setting boot priority. Any suggestions?
[21:22] <pythonista> hggdh OerHeks I tried sudo apt-get install -f and got the same error message
[21:23] <ejuan> rockstar_, if its a new laptop with uefi you probably need to disable secure boot
[21:23] <rockstar_> ejuan: It is using windows 7, how do I do it?
[21:24] <OerHeks> pythonista, and how about running update again?
[21:24] <FloKat> hi
[21:24] <OerHeks> !uefi
[21:25] <pythonista> DerHeks: Just tried running update again and installing, same error message

[21:37] <trol10> I sdlal as you said the problems are not passed
[21:37] <trol10> I did as you said the problems are not passed
[21:38] <trol10> ppa-purge
[21:38] <psichas> oh
[21:38] <OerHeks> trol10, maybe you better re-install, that ppa seems to mess up, there is a reason why we do not support ppa's, now you have troubles.
[21:39] <trol10> all systm re-install?
[21:39] <trol10> system?
[21:39] <OerHeks> troll yes
[21:39] <trol10> but i install oficcial repositroies now?

[21:42] <trol10> where i see log?
[21:47] <skinux> Does "Ubuntu Touch" have to be installed on an Android phone in order for apps to run? As far as I can tell, adding Ubuntu to Android is more than a simple install, so I'm really not sure how many Android users would have Ubuntu installed.
[21:47] <k1l_> skinux: its not an "install to android". its a "install ubuntu touch and wipe android" thing
[21:47] <OerHeks> skinux, there is a limited phones supported, join #ubuntu-touch and see the topic with list
[21:48] <OerHeks> most android phones are too weak
[21:48] <skinux> And Ubuntu SDK is supposed to be for desktop apps too, but most of the documentation is about phones/tablets.
[21:50] <c24b> I keeo thinging why do we have sneaky android apps unstead of straiforward web app that run with the browser?
[21:51] <OerHeks> huh, do we have sneaky android apps?
[21:51] <c24b> the communication protocol is not hard, so it's visible...
[21:51] <c24b> yes
[21:51] <c24b> just have a look on
[21:51] <c24b> the best sneaky app ever
[21:51] <OerHeks> c24b, not on ubuntu desktop, join #ubuntu-touch for such fud.
[21:51] <c24b> in Android
[21:52] <c24b> it's Battery Saver
[21:52] <OerHeks> !phone
[21:52] <tgm4883> c24b: don't use enter as punctionation. And this is slightly OT
[21:52] <c24b> thanks @ubottu happy to seak with a bot that have common sense
[21:53] <c24b> @OerHeks not on ubuntu desktop for god sake!
[21:54] <c24b> I might be trolling but with no confrontation I quit also
[22:03] <releaf> what's the best CLI irc client and what's the best GUI for ubuntu in your opinion?
[22:04] <wizzkidd> Can anyone advise the best way to setup my permissions on a folder and files.  I have a particular folder that I samba share to my windows machines on the network.  It seems that the permissions for "other" needs rwx rights in order for the windows machines to be able to access the share?  Am I making any sense?
[22:04] <OerHeks> releaf, There are not that much cli irc clients, irssi is the most used one i guess. desktop, use the one you like, there is no single best
[22:06] <dominolx> wizzkidd: how import is security on the file/folder?
[22:06] <OerHeks> wizzkidd, i guess you are wrong, owner-group-other, that would result in 777. make an samba user, and you will be fine
[22:07] <pavlos> wizzkidd, you can control permissions from your smb.conf All my files shared on my net are owned by nobody.nogroup and perms are 644
[22:07] <OerHeks> that would be a good procedure, pavlos
[22:08] <rockstar_> ubottu: , OerHeks and ejuan will try thanks
[22:09] <wizzkidd> pavlos: I just cant seem to set the correct settings to have nobody:nogroup to allow read and write access for windows shares
[22:14] <pavlos> wizzkidd, if you configure samba on your 14.04 setup, files are created/owned as nobody.nogroup
[22:15] <pavlos> wizzkidd, at the end of smb.conf you may have a section [public]   path=/mnt/public  writable = yes   guest ok = yes
[22:17] <wizzkidd> pavlos: I have a media server service that stores files in this "samba share" too. therefore that particular subfolder and contents has a different owner user.
[22:20] <om3n_pl> hello, I am having a problem with my sound interface o.O its m-audio fast track c400 that has 2 channel output. for some reason alsa sees it as a 5.1 card, any ideas ?
[22:20] <JackH> is this a good channel to ask about Aquaris help as well?
[22:24] <MonkeyDust> JackH  what's aquaris? is it ubuntu related?
[22:25] <JackH> yeah the Ubuntu touch phone, the Aquaris E4.5
[22:25] <MonkeyDust> !phone
[22:25] <JackH> it comes with a lot of pre installed apps

[22:36] <MrHeavy> On 14.10, what makes GRUB cancel the default option timeout and just sit at the menu screen waiting for the user to pick a boot option?
[22:37] <EriC^> MrHeavy: edit /etc/default/grub
[22:38] <MrHeavy> Maybe some context would be helpful -- I'm doing some testing with overlayroot in VirtualBox, and after I install and enable overlayroot, then reboot, it stops automatically booting the first option
[22:38] <MrHeavy> GRUB_TIMEOUT is still set in /etc/default/grub
[22:39] <EriC^> MrHeavy: maybe the first entry is different
[22:39] <MrHeavy> Definitely not, I just pull up the console and hit Enter and it boots
[22:39] <EriC^> you mean the grub menu
[22:40] <EriC^> ?
[22:40] <MrHeavy> I pull up the graphical console of the VM, which is sitting at the GRUB menu
[22:40] <EriC^> k
[22:40] <EriC^> what's GRUB_DEFAULT set to?
[22:40] <MrHeavy> 0
[22:41] <EriC^> k
[22:42] <ki7rw> well, should the entire drive be encrypted rather than just the home directories and swap?
[22:43] <MrHeavy> Is there something the OS is doing that's potentially signaling to GRUB that the last boot was unsuccessful?
[22:43] <trol10> hi
[22:43] <MrHeavy> I'm pretty sure that's what's going on here

[23:19] <lorddune> Hi, can someone please help me, I have a corrupt password / login after upgrading from Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS. Any attempt to (correctly) log in results in a loop error, taking me back to the login. Same for Guest. Same for TTY login. I am currently logged in to this computer via the USB Live 14.04 version.
[23:20] <gzcwnk> so you can see the / disk? specifically /etc/?
[23:20] <gzcwnk> lorddune: so you can see the / disk? specifically /etc/?
[23:21] <lorddune> gzcwnk: sure, the disk is fine
[23:21] <gzcwnk> lordlune ive only done thsi on debian....
[23:21] <kill> 275 MH/s and 1.8 BILLION difficulty
[23:21] <gzcwnk> cd /etc/
[23:21] <gzcwnk> and do a touch file
[23:22] <lorddune> gzcwnk: I was actually looking at it using an old Parted Magic disk I had earlier
[23:22] <gzcwnk> can you do that or is teh disk read only?
[23:23] <lorddune> gzcwnk: from what I've read, 12.04 used Unity for the login credentials, and 14.04 uses something else. This has caused thousands of people the same issues as me, but in searching for an answer there is literally hundreds of solutions and I am by no means an expert.
[23:23] <lorddune> gzcwnk: the disk is readable, I was looking at some files earlier, and even ran a few programs
[23:23] <gzcwnk> I am assuming you can blank the passwd file for your user
[23:24] <gzcwnk> is it writable?
[23:24] <lorddune> gzcwnk: haha, that is the rub....I do not know how to do any of that
[23:24] <gzcwnk> type this  "cd /etc ; touch file"
[23:24] <gzcwnk> what happens?
[23:25] <lorddune> gzcwnk: permission denied
[23:25] <lorddune> gzcwnk: I am logged in as 'Ubuntu' via the live disk
[23:26] <gzcwnk> ok im just going to google for a moment
[23:26] <gzcwnk> brb
[23:26] <lorddune> gzcwnk: ok thanks
[23:27] <ki7rw> well, should the entire drive be encrypted rather than just the home directories and swap?
[23:27] <gzcwnk> actually ubuntu has a doc on how to, -->  http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/linux/reset-your-forgotten-ubuntu-password-in-2-minutes-or-less/
[23:27] <gzcwnk> can you follow this?
[23:27] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Please try chrooting into your installation from the LiveCD and using "su" to switch to one non-root user, then "su lorddune" to switch to your user (which should prompt for your password).
[23:27] <EriC^> lorddune: it's probably a pam issue
[23:27] <lorddune> gzcwnk: but it's not that
[23:28] <wldcordeiro_> How do you combine two partitions into one in (k)ubuntu?
[23:28] <EriC^> lorddune: did you try logging in 2-3 times consecutively?
[23:28] <EriC^> wldcordeiro_: like what 2 partitions?
[23:29] <wldcordeiro_> EriC^: Yeah
[23:29] <wldcordeiro_> I used to have a windows and linux partition.
[23:29] <Jordan_U> wldcordeiro_: What do you mean by "combine"? What is your current situation and what is your end goal?
[23:29] <wldcordeiro_> reformatted the windows to ext4
[23:29] <gzcwnk> wldordeiro you have then lvm'd?
[23:29] <wldcordeiro_> and now want to have one big linux.
[23:29] <Bashing-om> lorddune: Maybe try and reset the password ? http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword .
[23:29] <EriC^> wldcordeiro_: just delete the windows one and resize the linux partition (from a live usb)
[23:29] <gzcwnk> if you lvm'd ubuntu you can do that easily
[23:30] <wldcordeiro_> Ah I need to do it from a live usb.
[23:30] <wldcordeiro_> gzcwnk: lvm?
[23:30] <EriC^> yeah you can't resize a mounted partition
[23:30] <gzcwnk> logical volume manager
[23:30] <wldcordeiro_> Ah okay.
[23:30] <lorddune> EriC^: yes, it is because the 14.04 LTS upgrade uses "ubuntu-session" for login credentials and 12.04 LTS used Unity. So my .xauthority is all screwed up, but I am not adept enough to attempt to fix it without a hand.
[23:30] <EriC^> lorddune: just delete it
[23:30] <gzcwnk> you cant on ubuntu?
[23:30] <lorddune> EriC^: How?
[23:30] <wldcordeiro_> Is there a good live usb image out there or will an ubuntu live usb do?
[23:30] <EriC^> lorddune: but you say tty logins fail too, so .Xauthority is unrelated..
[23:31] <Jordan_U> wldcordeiro_: You'll obviously need to copy off any important data from one of the partitions before you delete it.
[23:31] <EriC^> lorddune: boot recovery mode drop to root shell, type rm /home/<user>/.Xauthority
[23:31] <gzcwnk> reset the password
[23:31] <azizLIGHT> i got a message about debconf on my pc: "Configuring grub-efi-amd64. What do you want to do about modified configuration file grub?" where is the old file in question, and the new file in qustion, so i can fix this problem? I have dual boot and luks partitions i dont want to mess up
[23:31] <Jordan_U> wldcordeiro_: Just grab an Ubuntu LiveUSB.
[23:31] <azizLIGHT> this is after i updated grub
[23:31] <lorddune> EriC^: OK, as I said, there are hundreds of solutions to this problem in the Ubuntu Forums. I have tried maybe a dozen and nothing works yet.
[23:31] <wldcordeiro_> Jordan_U: Thanks.
[23:31] <EriC^> lorddune: usually .Xauthority will make the login in lightdm loop over
[23:32] <EriC^> lorddune: i think you have a pam issue
[23:32] <lorddune> gzcwnk: my password actually works. the system is stuck in a login loop.
[23:32] <Jordan_U> azizLIGHT: It should offer to show you a diff of the two files. Please pastebin that diff.
[23:32] <EriC^> did you see any solutions relating to pam?
[23:32] <Jordan_U> wldcordeiro_: You're welcome.
[23:33] <lorddune> EriC^: no, but I did see some mentions of the lightdm issue relating to the looping
[23:33] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Did you understand my request?
[23:33] <azizLIGHT> Jordan_U: which option do i pick for that? choices: http://i.imgur.com/Gvw1wcV.png

[23:34] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Please try chrooting into your installation from the LiveCD and using "su" to switch to one non-root user, then "su lorddune" to switch to your user (which should prompt for your password).
[23:34] <Bashing-om> lorddune: Do you own and group ' ls -al .ICEauthority ; la -al /home ' ?
[23:35] <lorddune> Jordan_U: sorry, not sure how to do that exactly
[23:35] <azizLIGHT> Jordan_U: i clicked that, and clicked forward... and nothing happened
[23:35] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Is your installed Ubuntu's root filesystem currently mounted?
[23:35] <Jordan_U> azizLIGHT: What do you currently see on the screen?
[23:35] <lorddune> Jordan_U: Yes
[23:36] <Jordan_U> lorddune: What is its mountpoint?
[23:36] <azizLIGHT> Jordan_U: the window disappeared and system updater says my pc is up to date. and i see my chat window
[23:36] <lorddune> Jordan_U: I am not sure because the upgrade made things look very odd
[23:36] <azizLIGHT> i hope it didnt overwrite my grub ...
[23:37] <EriC^> lorddune: try sudo pam-auth-update
[23:37] <EriC^> see if all the modules are selected
[23:37] <lorddune> EriC^: which option to select?
[23:38] <EriC^> have them all selected
[23:38] <lorddune> EriC^: 'Unix Authentication'?
[23:38] <EriC^> every single one
[23:38] <azizLIGHT> what does the new grub config file look like so i can update it with my personalizations
[23:38] <lorddune> EriC^: OK
[23:38] <Jordan_U> azizLIGHT: The diff was probably "shown" in a hidden by default terminal, which can be unhid by pressing a triangly which brings up what is essentially a terminal. The default option for dpkg is always to keep your modified version of the configuration file, so that's probably what it did.
[23:38] <Jordan_U> azizLIGHT: Look at /etc/default/grub.
[23:38] <lorddune> EriC^: done although i did not see it do anything
[23:39] <azizLIGHT> Jordan_U: by pressing a triangly. what does this mean
[23:39] <EriC^> did you try logging in?
[23:39] <azizLIGHT> Jordan_U: that has my personalized file right now. so nothing was changed?
[23:39] <EriC^> lorddune: wait how are you doing it anyways?
[23:40] <Jordan_U> azizLIGHT: Typo for "triangle", meaning that the last time I remember seeing something like this the button to unhide the terminal was a triangle shape.
[23:40] <lorddune> EriC^: how am I doing that command? As the root (Ubuntu) user from Live USB
[23:40] <EriC^> oh
[23:40] <EriC^> you need to chroot into your install first
[23:40] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Please pastebin the output of "mount".
[23:40] <azizLIGHT> Jordan_U: im not sure what/where this triangle is at all? first time im hearing about this
[23:41] <lorddune> Jordan_U: sorry I forgot how to do that
[23:41] <azizLIGHT> lorddune: do mount | pastebinit
[23:42] <azizLIGHT> lorddune: then copy the url outputted, and paste it here
[23:42] <Jordan_U> azizLIGHT: It was probably on the (now gone) window that was asking you what you wanted to do about the changed configuration file.
[23:42] <lorddune> hahaha well pastebin doesnt exist on this
[23:43] <lorddune> azizLIGHT: pastebin not on here
[23:43] <azizLIGHT> lorddune: ah well. its a nice tool you should have for future use!
[23:43] <EriC^> sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[23:43] <lorddune> azizLIGHT: I have it on my main OS lol, I can;t login
[23:43] <azizLIGHT> why doesnt pastebinit ship by default
[23:43] <EriC^> lorddune: then type sudo lsblk -f | pastebinit
[23:43] <lorddune> Jordan_U: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[23:44] <lorddune> Jordan_U: thanks for the guidance
[23:44] <azizLIGHT> Jordan_U: alright so it looks like nothing was changed in my grub .... i think? im safe for now?
[23:44] <lorddune> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11138009/
[23:44] <Jordan_U> azizLIGHT: Yes, like I said, it defaults to keeping your modified version.
[23:44] <azizLIGHT> phew ok
[23:45] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Please pastebin the output of "sudo blkid".
[23:45] <azizLIGHT> how come lorddune doesnt have any / mount
[23:45] <Jordan_U> lorddune: sudo blkid | pastebinit
[23:46] <EriC^> azizLIGHT: it's a live usb
[23:46] <azizLIGHT> ah nvm i see it now
[23:46] <lorddune> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11138045/
[23:47] <EriC^> lorddune: type sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[23:47] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Do you know which of those ext4 partitions has your root filesystem?
[23:48] <lorddune> Jordan_U: well I know where 12.04 was
[23:48] <EriC^> bleh
[23:48] <lorddune> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11138063/
[23:49] <lorddune> Jordan_U: yes, sda1
[23:49] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Great. "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/"
[23:50] <lorddune> Jordan_U: at least that's where my last 3 versions of Ubuntu were
[23:50] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Upgrading Ubuntu won't change which partition is used for your root filesystem.
[23:50] <lorddune> Jordan_U: Embarrasingly, I never intended to ypdate to 14.04 LTS. I accidently clicked on it one night (while a bit drunk)
[23:51] <lorddune> Jordan_U: ok done
[23:51] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Then "sudo chroot /mnt/". This should bring you to a root shell essentially within your installed system.
[23:52] <lorddune> Jordan_U: yeah, it's weird as I noticed during the update it was deleting many of the files I had set up for my FX card
[23:52] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Then, to test logging in here, run "su yourusername", which should switch you to your user without asking for a password, then run "su yourusername" again, which should prompt you for your password this time.
[23:53] <lorddune> Jordan_U: "Unable to resolve host ubuntu
[23:54] <gzcwnk> tahts normalish
[23:56] <lorddune> Jordan_U: actually it worked as what I thought was a User and not Root
[23:57] <lorddune> Jordan_U: I have the "$" prompt now
[23:57] <Jordan_U> lorddune: Were you prompted for your password?
[23:57] <lorddune> Jordan_U: when I try it the 2nd time it says "must be run from a terminal"
[23:59] <tapout> So i'm using windows 8 with vmware to launch ubuntu.  I develop in it.  I'm wondering, what do ya'll think.. should I just install ubuntu and say bye bye to win 8?\
