Smokiedaftykins, i tried to enable mod_xml2enc and mod_proxy_html and it says the module does not exist for both00:02
=== bebonu is now known as bejonu
Smokieok.. i renamed the module files and restarted apache and now it starts normal00:04
Smokiemagic?00:04
wafflejockSmokie, yeah typically with a2enmod you just tell it the part after the mod_00:06
jhammonsDoes anyone know if it's true that tunneled interfaces are no longer managed by network-manager? I'm having this problem with easytether: https://askubuntu.com/questions/616528/sweethome3d-and-easytether-not-working-on-ubuntu-15-04 Basically, it isn't managed by network-manager anymore and so I have to run dhclient manually, but this causes problems because my DNS resolution doesn't get set for some reason, which then becomes a bigger issue when I try to 00:07
wafflejockSmokie, so something like sudo a2enmod proxy_html00:07
wafflejockSmokie, not sure about the module naming convention change between the versions but that might have happened00:07
pEYEdwhere does ubuntu hide the kernel? I mounted /dev/sda1 but nothing looks like a kernel in there   https://bpaste.net/show/917f9ec75b8400:08
duckblastertry ls /mount/boot/boot00:09
cryptodanthe source of the kernel should be in /usr/src and the kernel images are in /boot00:09
Ben64pEYEd: looks like a windows partition00:09
pEYEdBen64:  looks like somebody borked. it's got both00:10
Ben64pEYEd: what are you trying to do00:10
pEYEdBen64: swap a kernel out. trying to get a rtl8188 loaded00:12
Ben64pEYEd: you're almost assuredly doing it wrong00:14
pEYEdBen64: gentoo is my primary distro. I swap out kernels every day.00:14

daftykinslo00:27
Lurchtokewhats best widnows shell client to use if I am on same network?00:27
Lurchtokeerr windows00:27
daftykinsPuTTY is your classic, but i use KiTTY as it has URL parsing so you can click links00:28
LurchtokeI am somewhat of a novice with ubuntu and installing it onto my new serer I am putting on this network00:28
LurchtokeI am very familier with putty...played nethack on it for years00:28
Lurchtokeok00:29
Lurchtokeso...just trying to verify something in my mind00:29
mrkirby153How can I make gitlab not eat my ram alive? It's currently using 90% of it00:29
tortalTIL: VcXsrv is the new Xming!00:29
Lurchtokewould it be wise to install ubuntu onto an ssd drive and archives onto IDE?00:29
daftykinsLurchtoke: 'archives' ?00:29
Ben64mrkirby153: ask gitlab?00:30
mrkirby153Ben64, what do you mean?00:30
Lurchtokewell....I am a football coach and want to serve some film if needed....cant fit all my film on the 128GB SSD drive.....00:30
wafflejockmrkirby153, check for a gitlab channel00:30
mrkirby153there's a gitlab channel here?00:30

daftykinsLurchtoke: oh so media. yes put /home on the mechanical disk.00:31
Lurchtoke..../home as in the ubuntu install dir???00:32
wafflejockLurchtoke, /home is for you documents and user specific config files00:32
Lurchtokewhy.....is it bad idea to have ubuntu on an SSD drive?00:32
Lurchtokeahhh....ok00:32
wafflejockLurchtoke, no you just want where you put your media and stuff to be big00:33
svetadw1: could you do me a favour, please? raise a nautilus bug suggesting that they add a help article about sorting order00:33
wafflejockLurchtoke, the root of the filesystem with the binaries and all can be on an SSD so it's faster00:33
Lurchtokeforgive my ignorance00:33

EnderHello everyone. I realise this may get me hacked/trolled/other nasty stuff... but i'm new to linux and could use someone to guide me in making a few changes to my PC00:34
svetaEnder: welcome! what would you like to do?00:34
mrkirby153sveta, got any alternative less memory hevy apps?00:35
wafflejockmrkirby153, think that's what the gitorious link was for00:35
wafflejockmrkirby153, gitlab between ruby and redis does seem to just chew through memory by default but it caches a lot of the requests, I ended up upgrading a VPS so it could properly run it though00:36
Enderwell firstly I want to install the correct video drivers - I downloaded the drivers from AMD and a window opened - I right clicked and selected run - a text file opened and then a box with a line came up... then the box went dark grey00:36
svetamrkirby153: set up a git repo and use an interface like gitweb for viewing it on the web. http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-The-Protocols has a chapter about gitweb.00:36
daftykinsEnder: manual download isn't the best idea. which card?00:36

Lurchtokerandom question....once I get Ubuntu running and my remote shell configured and working....I can take my video card out of my dual core box....and run ubuntu without...right?00:38
daftykinsLurchtoke: no00:38
daftykinsLurchtoke: not unless it has onboard graphics00:39
daftykinsEnder: have you tried using the additional drivers to use the built in fglrx?00:39
Tony8Hey guys, I'm running ubuntu 14.04, and my keyboard, mouse, and USB wireless adapter suddenly stopped responding. I can't exactly log in and mess with my drivers, but I messed around with my BIOS for a while, where the mouse and keyboard work fine. Anyone know what I can do?00:39
reisioLurchtoke: if you don't need a display, you don't need a video card00:39
Lurchtokeif I dont need to be local and look at monitor...why even load up video card?00:39
rebornreisio, there is no people in channel.00:40
daftykinsLurchtoke: because computers don't boot without one00:40
reisioreborn: I knowses00:40
Enderno - no idea - this is the first time i've used linux - i don't even know what fglrx is00:40
reisiocomputers also don't really ship without onboard video00:40
reisioso...00:40
daftykinsreisio: you are assuming this ones age00:40
Lurchtokereiso....incorrect00:40
reisioLurchtoke: most likely the answer is yes00:40
reisiodaftykins: nah00:40
daftykinsreisio: and you are also wrong :) some intel mobos don't even provide ports for use of the on-die graphics00:41
Lurchtokeplenty o boards without onboard video00:41
reisiodaftykins: yeah, and some computers use punch cards00:41
Lurchtokelol......stand back00:41
reisioLurchtoke: not any you have, though :p00:41

mrkirby153sveta, I really don't like how gitweb works00:44

Tony8Desktop00:44
Jordan_UTony8: The first thing I would try would be selecting an older kernel in the grub menu, in hopes that the USB problems were caused by a recent kernel upgrade.00:44
daftykinsTony8: wouldn't hurt to pull the mains power supply cable and let it sit for a few mins, then power up again00:44
Enderok it has come up with 3 options . xorgx server. fglrx and fglrx-updates00:45
svetamrkirby153: ah okay. there is a #gitlab channel if I'm not mistaken. I would not recommend javascript-extensive ruby apps though, they're just slow.00:45
daftykinsEnder: try fglrx updates00:45
svetamrkirby153: and their philosophy of offering github lite and upgrading people to a proprietary program is not good.00:45
svetamrkirby153: so I would suggest that you find something else that you like. maybe you will like redmine for hosting projects. http://demo.redmine.org/projects/try00:46
mrkirby153sveta, that's a 40400:46
mrkirby153what you linked00:46
svetaah crap. one mo00:46
svetahttp://demo.redmine.org/00:46
Enderok it's updating then a restart apparently - letting it go then hopefully i'll be back :)00:46
daftykinsEnder: yep00:47
Tony8Loading an older kernel worked, thanks Jordan.00:47
daftykinso000:47
mrkirby153sveta, from first looks, that doesn't look like a VCS software00:47
svetaclick a project name and look at the tabs at the top00:48
Jordan_UTony8: You're welcome. Now we should figure out why the update broke USB though, you shouldn't stay with old insecure kernels.00:48

mrkirby153sveta, would bumping my ram to 2GB help?00:51
mrkirby153sveta, on my VPS? Its only a dollar more00:51
svetamrkirby153: about gitlab? no idea. I feel sorry for its users in the first place because many of them would get trapped into visiting the gitlab official website and being nagged to buy the backdoored full version.00:52
mrkirby153sveta, how so?00:52
svetamrkirby153: if you read the first URL you'll understand. I can't explain it any better than it does.00:52

Dr_DanQ:  whats the status on meizu or other ubuntu phone for USA?  When will they go on sale?00:53
Jordan_UTony8: Please file a bug report about this by running "ubuntu-bug linux".00:54
linuxlueThere is no firewall enable in 14.04, right?00:56
daftykinslinuxlue: UFW - check with "sudo iptables -L"00:57
jpdslinuxlue: Not by default.00:57
Jordan_UTony8: If the next kernel update doesn't get USB working again, then you should try the latest upstream kernel https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds (no compiling needed). If the problem exists in a newer upstream kernel, then it should be relatively easy to find exactly which commit caused the problem, and get the bug fixed before the next Ubuntu release.00:57
linuxluejpds: So why is my port 80 closed00:57
daftykinslinuxlue: more than likely you picked the wrong LAN IP / forwarded a port wrong / your ISP blocks it00:57
HewloThereHey, can someone link me to a guide to set up DNS in Ubuntu 14.04?00:58
linuxluedaftykins: my ISP must have blocked it because I can ssh into it00:58
daftykinslinuxlue: so what've you got, apache test page working fine internally?00:59
linuxlueYes00:59
daftykinslinuxlue: are you testing by putting in your external IP whilst at home? because not all routers allow that00:59
linuxluedaftykins: I'm using my mobile phone to test my address01:00
cryptodanlinuxlue: use www.network-tools.com to test for http headers on your external ip via www.whatismyip.com01:00
linuxlueI even set up a no-ip just now01:00

linuxluedaftykins: I hard could it be? It's only four drop down boxes on my router01:03
linuxlueSSh works fine01:04
Jordan_Ulinuxlue: Do you have a separate modem, or is your router a combined modem and Access Point?01:04
daftykinslinuxlue: well then reconfigure apache to run on another port, then forward that for testing.01:05
daftykinsbut trust me, human error happens :P01:05
linuxlueJordan_U: No, it's two different objects. One a router and the other a modem01:05
Jordan_Ulinuxlue: Are both performing NAT, or only one of them?01:06

dw1sveta: i just named it 000 - readme.txt :p01:14
linuxluedaftykins: The files I have to change are port.conf = Listen 400001:14

linuxlueYeah! I'm just going to throw my laptop against the wall01:30
saiarcot895Nikesh: likely because if you ever go to a key-signing event, they'll typically ask for some government-issued ID before they sign your key (and therefore give trust).01:30

HiGregSGood evening!01:32
Ender_ok video drivers are working now - but my keyboard is intermittent - can i install drivers for it the same way or is that a manual thing?01:32
daftykinskeyboards do not have drivers01:33
svetawhy?01:33
Ender_hmmm even custom ones like logitechs g series?01:33
wonkodaftykins: yeah, i'll definitely be doing that.01:34
wonkothanks everyone!01:34
daftykinsmaybe there's some program to chat to those ones silly displays but i don't know01:34
daftykinsthat's different01:34
saiarcot895sveta: Likely because keyboards are pretty much standardized (either built-in, PS/2 port, or USB), and so there's few, if any, different drivers.01:34
svetaok01:34
Ender_i thought there might be as on my last reboot it would not let me type anything01:35
daftykinsthat's a novel one01:35
Ender_ok ubunto forums says not to worry about my keyboard unless i install python - I'll research that a bit later and decide then. next question. what is Terminal?01:39
daftykinsubuntu.01:39
daftykinsthe terminal is an app, run it01:40
daftykinsit lets you type command line commands in the GUI.01:40
HiGregSEnder_, I think you can get to Ubuntu terminal with Ctrl-Alt-T01:40
Ender_ok i see - this is basically a command prompt?01:41
daftykinsyes but far more powerful than cmd on Windows01:41
HiGregSEnder_, yes.01:41
wonkomy I love 'mco puppet runall'01:41

saiarcot895Note that there's also a couple of reviews on Amazon for the Logitech G510 and G550 keyboards saying it doesn't work on Linux01:41

Ender_today is my first day learning linux - i'm afraid my questions are probably going to make all of you laugh at my general ignorance01:44
saiarcot895Ok, thanks SchrodingersScat, it's been a while.01:44
svetasaiarcot895: yes, just an exclamation mark01:45
wafflejockEnder_, it's no problem just try to follow advice and the rules of the chat and you'll be fine the room is for ubuntu support, so long as your questions fall under that umbrella it's fine to ask01:45
linuxluedaftykins: So I have the port open now but now my site isn't loading01:46
ModelEnginedaftykins: how to pm the bot?01:46
Ender_excellent ty - I'll try not to be too annoying :)01:46
wafflejockModelEngine, /msg ubottu !bot01:46
HiGregSI have an XPS13 with broadcom wireless. How do I get a bootable USB with Ubuntu 15.04 that includes the right driver?01:46
ModelEnginewafflejock: cool tks01:46
wafflejockModelEngine, most clients you double click the username/nick to open a PM window01:46
daftykinsHiGregS: you don't, you'll need to get the packages needed off the drive / another flash drive to bring them over01:47
wafflejockHiGregS, that ships with Ubuntu right so I imagine Dell has any extra drivers needed on their support site, no?01:47
daftykins!manual | Ender_ you should start here instead of on IRC then01:47
ubottuEnder_ you should start here instead of on IRC then: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/01:47
daftykinsEnder_: also consider doing the free course LFS101x at edx.org01:48
ModelEnginedaftykins: wafflejock: how to ask it questions01:48
ModelEnginedaftykins: wafflejock: the bot i mean01:48
daftykinsModelEngine: sigh.01:49
HiGregSwafflejock, I'm not sure if the drivers are on Dell, but I found them elsewhere...I have the .deb file: can I double click them after booting 15.04 from USB and it will install on the USB (with persistence enabled)?01:49
wafflejockModelEngine, it doesn't really do natural language or search that I know of you can just !sometopic and it will spit out a response if one is saved for that topic or !info somepackagename to search for some details on a package01:49
ModelEnginedaftykins: wafflejock: actually, n/m, can either of you recommend an amzing article or somehting like a crash course on irc's, ubuntu, etc01:49
wafflejockHiGregS, well once you actually install the system from the USB if that's the plan you'd need to install the .deb on that installation but if you're planning to just use the persistent storage on a USB you should be able to install in there just fine as well01:50
daftykinsModelEngine: i just did above.01:50
wafflejockModelEngine, think daftykins just posted a couple of resources to Ender_01:50
=== Guest4130 is now known as cyphase
ModelEnginesearching01:50
HiGregSwafflejock, thank you for confirming that that should work (USB/persistence/deb file). I am having a huge difficulty making it all work from "live" usb stick 15.04 with my XPS1301:51
wafflejockHiGregS, a .deb file is basically equivalent to a .msi in windows01:51
ModelEnginedaftykins: my apologies, however i am newer, and yes need a bit more help than the average person here, but please try to be patient, i will understand it soon01:51
wafflejockHiGregS, would probably try with 14.04 since it's less likely to have unresolved problems and I think that's what they ship with but would check into that01:51
HiGregSthe idea is that I should get live working prior to installing, so I don't end up bricking my computer.01:51
HiGregSwafflejock, yes they ship with 14.04 but there are a few problems that 15.04 is supposed to solve...01:52
wafflejockHiGregS, you have some sort of external backup device? extra drive lying around or NAS or anything?01:52
daftykinsModelEngine: ok be nice if you could reduce highlighting me now please :)01:52
HiGregSI have a few microsd cards...(XPS13 has an SD slot...)01:53
wafflejockHiGregS, clonezilla is a nice option for a bootable media that can clone disk to image or image to disk for saving a whole system and restoring it just in case, can sometimes have weird issues in the live session vs actual install01:53
wafflejockHiGregS, but yeah either way installing a .deb file should work it's just a matter of if the persistence is setup properly if the installation will stick after rebooting01:54
wafflejockHiGregS, for clonezilla though you need some media/drive that's big enough to store all the Windows data01:55
yurikolesyou can save you windows01:55
HiGregSok. Thx wafflejock. I've been having LOTS of problems learning while trying to make this all work. I'll have to think a bit about what my next useful question might be (instead of a monologue-ish rant).01:55
ModelEnginesure, i had to look up highlighting on the net, and now i know what it is. are you an op?01:55
HiGregSwafflejock, I don't have windows. Ordered the "developer edition" with 14.04 stock.01:55
wafflejockHiGregS, ah okay so just testing from the LiveUSB before upgrading01:56
wafflejockHiGregS, well that helps Ubuntu is smaller than windows for backup purposes, plus can always just download the media again so long as you have another computer to get it with01:56
HiGregSok. Seems like I'm following the right path, despite tons of problems... thx...01:56
HiGregSI don't have another computer, unfortunately....01:56
daftykinsHiGregS: you're better off staying with LTS.01:56
=== bejonu is now known as irobevjodu
wafflejockyeah I'm not sure on the XPS but personal experience things have been better on 14.04 at this point and personally like to stick to LTS so I don't have to upgrade so often01:57
wafflejockbut I know it had some audio issues and some other things, not sure if you can resolve those just installing some packages though or can just "patch" it in 14.0401:58
HiGregSwafflejock, generally agree. Though I have to try to remember what problems are making me want to upgrade. It's been such a hassle over the last few days that I've now forgotten the original reason....01:58
ModelEnginewafflejock: how to go to ops channel for ubuntu?01:58
wafflejockModelEngine, just /join #ubuntu-ops I believe some channels require registration01:59
ModelEnginethx01:59
wafflejockHiGregS, yeah is this your first Linux computer?02:00
HiGregSfirst in a long time. Started a long time ago using kernel version 0.9802:00
wafflejockHiGregS, the initial acclimation is the hardest part, then you go through all the desktop environments and when you settle on some things then it's not so bad because you can typically re-use your configuration stuff going forward, and if you put your /home on a separate partition from the OS during install you can reinstall the OS without messing up your home folder, there are always pluses and minuses02:02
HiGregSHow big should my /home partition be, if I do that?02:02
HiGregSsorry... how big should the OS partition be?02:03
daftykinsit'd always be the remainder of the disk, the size of / would be... probably not even over 20GB02:03
wafflejockHiGregS, it's a judgement call depends on how many programs you install and what you're doing exactly, like I have a lot of stuff in my /var/www since I do web dev trying to check my current drive but yeah would say 40GB is totally safe for most people's OS install 20GB is probably typical02:04
INeedYourHelpCan someone guide me through how to reinstall grub thru terminal??02:04
wafflejockyeah 20GB outside my /home right now02:05
yurikolesif you'd like to test all variants of Desktops (spins) of ubuntu then may be 30 GB02:05
INeedYourHelpAlso my efi partition is deleted02:05
HiGregSthx wafflejock and yurikoles for the suggestions on '/' size.e02:05
yurikolesin terabyte times it's veru low02:05
HiGregSI'm on 256GB SSD. so small is good :-)02:06
wafflejockHiGregS, indeed I'm on 128GB so gotta keep an eye on that here02:06
INeedYourHelpDoes anyone know how to fix this "boot device not found error"?02:06
HiGregSINeedYourHelp, it's due to UEFI vs. Legacy.02:06
HiGregSMy USB stick boots in Legacy, my Hard Drive in UEFI.02:07
yurikolesfor first time I'm suggesting you set all to /02:07
HiGregSI've been directed to: https://askubuntu.com/questions/395879/how-to-create-uefi-only-bootable-usb-live-media/02:07
INeedYourHelpOk. Im trying to use a liveusb to boot Ubuntu but its just not working02:07
yurikolessince there is no other distros except ubuntu for newcomers02:07
INeedYourHelpThe only thing i can boot is the Super Grub2 Disk. Even my gparted iso doesnt work02:08
HiGregSINeedYourHelp, if you already have two different booting images, (UEFI and Legacy) you will need to change your BIOS setting to boot the other image.02:10
yurikolesI think that reason is not in images02:10
HiGregSAt some point, you'll probably need to make sure both images are UEFI compatible.02:10
yurikolesbut in way you that you prepare usb stick02:10
HiGregSTrust  yurikoles over any thing I say...02:10
INeedYourHelpOh so i should use .img istead of .iso?02:11
yurikolesno02:11
yurikolesjust .iso and win32diskimager02:11
yurikolesit's a program for writing images to usb stick02:11
yurikolesit will boot both legacy and uefi02:12
yurikolesjust make sure to select *.* mask in file type filter02:12
INeedYourHelpThe thing is i cant boot into any OS02:12
yurikolesby default it shows only .img and directories02:12
yurikolesdo you have a notebook with offtopic 8?02:13
yurikolesoh shi02:13
INeedYourHelpNo but im using an android app called DriveDroid which lets me boot iso files02:13

Fjorgynn# is common name for the root prompt which means that you're using the shell as a root user07:37
Fjorgynnin Ubuntu you can also use root commands with sudo "sudo apt-get update" updates the packages list07:38
Fjorgynnroot@ds1051:~# means that you are using the shell as root@computername:~#07:39

Fjorgynnyou can always use pwd to check which directory you are in07:40
FjorgynnHewloThere: why where you using your computer as root07:41
HewloThereFjorgynn, I just installed it. I'm setting stuff up.07:41
HewloThereWhat I mean is, in SSH, it's showing a $, not the other stuff.07:41
FjorgynnHewloThere: you are using ubuntu right?07:42

Fjorgynnyes07:45

Fjorgynnuseradd is good if you know what you're doing07:45
FjorgynnIf you don't know what you are doing you should not be root.07:45
Fjorgynn$ sudo adduser07:46
Fjorgynnput sudo in front of all "root commands"07:46

jzc_where is that setting??08:40
cfhowlettsabgenton, yes grub is included08:40
sabgentoncfhowlett:  ok I  used  usb-creator-gtk to wipe an image the vivid iso to usb from a trusty live session08:42
sabgentoncfhowlett: maybe the trusty verssion of usb-creator-gtk was old an out of date and didn't set it up right08:42
cfhowlettsabgenton, didn't set up right.  grub is included by default on all *buntu CD's08:42
sabgentoncfhowlett: the live usb  gives me the old boot:  style prompt only08:43
sabgentoni can type help and get the menu with F1 F2 F3 options08:43
sabgentonbut if I boot ubuntu theres not grub08:44
cfhowlettsabgenton, I don't know how to image a live session ... sorry08:44
jzc_*tab*08:44
sabgentonoh wait maybe the grub bits so fast im not geting it,  do you have to press shift esc now?08:44
sabgentonI just press esc on trusty to get some options08:45
maarharthelp please, my script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/ does not load on wakeup08:45
sabgentonhmm maybe Im not thinking grub08:45
cfhowlettsabgenton, if you're imaging a live session, you won't see grub as you're using only one kernel.  you have to manually trigger grub to see it.08:46
sabgentonI'm meaing the options in trusty where you press esc  and you get like  install or just run live cd08:46
maarhartthe script looks like this: http://paste.debian.net/17810508:47
sabgentonI used to use it to type toram  so I could remove the usb stick08:47

paulus68reinstalled ubuntu still same problem any Ideas on how to solve this I'm running on ubuntu 14.04 LTS this happened after the latest kernel update10:57
dprcdear: gufw10:57
wesley9946hi, my laptop (Dell Inspiron 9400) doesn't output any DVI signal to my monitor when ubuntu is running, GPU is a Intel 945GM10:58
wesley9946DVI cable type is DVI-D Single Link10:58
pratik@dprc , you are awful !!!! If you are smart you should have developed your own programming language!10:58
dprcpratik: troll harder10:58
deargood, is ufw also block per app basics?10:58
paulus68ikonia: do you have a suggestion for me?10:59
ikoniapaulus68: in regard to what ?10:59
dprcdear: no, it will block only ports11:00

paulus68ikonia: this after a kernel update11:00
dearonly ports? or ip and port?11:00
dprcit can filter both11:00
ikoniapaulus68: it would be odd for a kernel update to change the grub install11:00
shadow193Hi all11:00
Loshkipaulus68: can you verify this by booting the previous kernel?11:01
dprcufw is just an easy front end to iptables/netfilter11:01
ikoniait's not a kernel file11:01
ikoniait's part of the grub install11:01
paulus68ikonia: followed this guide askubuntu.com/questions/266429/error-file-grub-i386-normal-mod-not-found and still have the same problem11:01
bekksdear: ip and port.11:01
paulus68Loshki: not possible it directly stops at this message before I can choose anything11:01
dearit says in guide, it can block, ips and ports, thats a basic firewall, i also want to block by site names like google.com, facebook.com etc, @dprc11:01
paulus68Loshki: even did a re-install same problem11:02
dprcyou can blackhole those using the hosts files11:02
bekksdear: So do it :)11:02
shadow193I have a problem, I cant install amd additional driver, in additional driver application, pointer on list jumps back to xorg driver. I have searched in google and people write about changing software server, but that doesnt work for me at all, does anyone have any ideas about my problem ??11:02
dearbekks: dprc: can you please give me an example line to block a CIDR format ip range ?11:02
bekksdear: you should read up on the link given, first.11:03
dprcdear: there are proxies that are tailor made for this kind of filtering (blocking of facebook, advertisements etc) etc in the repos; just grep around11:03

jcb123Hi, I'm a new user and I'd like to know how to change what my mouse buttons do. On windows I had the "backward" button mapped to the middle mouse because my scroll wheel is hard to press down on because it moves. I was wondering how to do this?11:19
jcb123I can't seem to find anything in the Ubuntu store, and google gives me a bunch of things that I don't understand.11:20
jcb123When I search "Xinput" in the ubuntu store it says its already installed, but I can't find the button for it in the menu11:21
ikoniait's not a button launched app11:22
=== bakingbread is now known as icedp
jcb123Then how do you get to it?11:22
ikoniayou need to run it from the command line11:22
ikoniathats how it takes arguments11:22
jcb123Okay, I'm not sure how to do any of that. I was just looking for something with a menu11:22
jcb123Like, when i googled it it told me to run things from command line, but I don't understand how it works or how to make it do what I want. I guess its kind of obvious, this is my first time using ubuntu.11:24
madebymarkcawhat are you trying to figure out jcb?11:24
dprcdear: i think you have to do a hyphen or something for gufw instead of simple "/24"11:24
dprcis a little finicky11:25
jcb123How to map my "backward" mouse button to the middle mouse key (this is the only change I really need, I have other ones I'd like to make, but I don't know how to replicate them on ubuntu like I had them on windows)11:25
deardprc: i'm studying that guide right now, i think i have found something to my interest, but still url filtering is another issue and cannot be done in a firewall. which proxy is good for this purpose?11:26
jcb123Like, I had my middle mouse button change the mouse sensitivity and the side button was mapped to the "windows logo" key. I used to have the "forward" button mapped to an AutoHotKey scruipt, but I don't think thats possible since AHK has no linux stuff.11:26
jcb123But, all I really need for now is backward button to middle mouse.11:27
jcb123I found these: "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto", "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MouseCustomizations" but, I don't understand them. All I wanted was a little menu.11:28
ZtaAfter using the Startup Disk Creator to create a 15.04 USB instaler, I was shown the option to test the image.  That launched qemu and the image failed.  I'd like to boot it with qemu again.  How do I do this?  The Startup Disk Creator doesn't offer the option on a USB with an image on it =(11:28
madebymarkcaI have never used auto hot key, just looking at what it does11:28
Zta+ prior to rewriting the image to the USB stick.11:28
deardprc: it would have been good if there was the ability in firewall to block per app by UID, that would do a great security, as i could block all apps and then only allow few which i want with strict rules of where they can contact and where not11:29
jcb123It was my first "language" - not sure what to call it since its not a "programming language" - but I had a menu where I could highlight anything and tell my system to google it, or put it in the calculator, and a few other things.11:29
bekksdear: One of the proxy server solutions in the ubuntu repos.11:29
jcb123I guess its a "scripting language"11:29
deardprc: as it is possible in android with afwall+, linux should have more options then android11:29
madebymarkcayou can remap keys, but I haven't remapped mouse btns, just trackpad11:29
madebymarkcashouldn't be very hard though11:30
jcb123But, all I really need is the simple ones - middle mouse to backward button being the most important. Its impossible to use a Logiteck Performace MX's middle mouse button without scrolling.11:30
bekksjcb123: It is possible, I am using it without scrolling :)11:31
madebymarkcaI usually do it through the command line, but you could try btnx11:31
madebymarkcahttps://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/lucid/btnx-config/11:31
jcb123Different strokes for different fokes I guess :311:31
paulus68ikonia: is there a way to remove the /boot dir using a live session11:31
dprcdear: there are things like Privoxy etc which ease the filtering somewhat (instead of managing tonnes of filters by hand)11:32
dearbekks: sorry as i said i'm new, i am not familiar with linux, i know what is a repo, but how do i browse ubuntu repo to see what proxies are there ?11:32
jcb123When I click on that I get "There isn’t a software package called “btnx-config” in your current software sources."11:32
paulus68ikonia: if I use my terminal it sais it's removed and when I check in the explorer its still there?11:32

deari just came from windows,11:33
madebymarkcabut command line best way :) hah11:33
dprcdear: to limit by binary (app), it may be possible to do this with AppArmor11:33
dprcI know you can do it with SELinux for sure but an not 100% about AppArmor11:33
bekksdear: you could use "apt-cache search proxy", e.g., or talk a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DansGuardian https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Privoxy and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Squid11:33
jcb123Is there like, a beginner tutorial to command line? I've never used anything like this, and it's super confusing and forgien to me for something I find really simple on other playforms11:33
dprcbekks: i already recommend Privoxy to them11:34
jcb123So... btnx says its not in the software center >.<11:34
bekksdprc: Yeah, thats why I gave hima link to read up on that ;)11:35
madebymarkcayou just need to find a ppa, what version of linux are you on11:35

dprcjcb123: http://blog.cryptographyengineering.com/2015/04/truecrypt-report.html11:41
jcb123dprc, For now - better safe than sorry. When it comes to encryption, keeping your tinfoil hat on nice and tight tends to be the best strategy.11:41
bekksleni1: All you could do is using it from a webbrowser: https://web.whatsapp.com/11:41
dearjcb123: i abandoned windows because of security and privacy issues, i hope i can deal with them in linux :)11:42
jcb123madebymarkca, Even though its for 12.04, will it still work on this version?11:42
dprcit is perfectly safe. better shape than openssl was a a little while back (this time not Debian's fault!) ;)11:42
madebymarkcashould be fine :)11:42
madebymarkcaif it doesn't you can remove it in the software center11:43
madebymarkcaunder installed software11:43
jcb123dprc, I guess you could say I just don't feel comfortable with it anymore. Like, what if someone already found a backdoor, and hid it. Now that's its not being patched, they could sell it for a mint.11:43

deari'm used to command line, but not with linux command line, i'm doing Cisco networking and use lot of commands, thats why i'm interested in linux to combine my networking skills with linux, and go extreme in security for testing purposes11:46

madebymarkcaok, up to you11:46

madebymarkcait's just a wrapper for xinput probably11:46
madebymarkcaso wouldn't be afraid to try it11:46
jcb123Hmm, alright. Lets see what happens :311:46
madebymarkcaall most of the gui for linux does is run commands in the background11:46

dearbekks: i don't like the names good, facebook, and others which don't respect privacy of people, so i always block them completely, but they are here in ubuntu, i don't know what they are doing here and what they can collect, may be analytics or something, i just don't like them at all11:47
madebymarkcahttp://www.makeuseof.com/tag/ubuntu-ppa-technology-explained/11:47

madebymarkcathat's how many packages are distributed for ubuntu, some come in deb like that one though11:48
madebymarkcaother formats too :)11:48
jcb123dear, Settings > Privacy > Search> Off.11:48
madebymarkcabut software center is just apt-get11:48
jcb123jcb123,  That gets rid of the amazon and online stuff and keyboard tracking.11:49
jcb123madebymarkca, You've mentioned apt twice now... what it is?11:49
dearbekks: i went in synaptic package manager, and in search write google, there are many packages come in search, i removed google account plugin, but when i tried to remove another one, it said there also will be removed lots of other packages with it, so i didn't remove it11:49
XenuLivesWhen can I download Ubuntu Masturbating Monkey?11:49
bekksdear: So, why are you concerned that there are packagaes containing said words in their description, showing up when searchibng for them?11:49
dprcno one tell them that google and facebook contribute to the code base... ;)11:50
bekksdear: sshhhh... :P11:50
madebymarkcaso I have a question, if anyone know. I have some scripts that I run during ssh logins that use sudo, is the best way to add the .bashrc to sudoers/make an sh script that gets loaded to avoid it asking for the password when executing the scirpts?11:51
dearis that true?11:51
dprcdear: of course. so does microsoft, and the NSA11:51
deardoes google and facebook contribute in ubuntu's code base? @bekks @dprc ???11:51
jcb123So, when I try to install btnx via command line, it says I have unmet dependencies11:52
jcb123and when I try to install those dependencies, they have more dependencies...11:52
jcb123Google told me apt-get apparently solves this... but... ah... yeah I know nothing.11:53
madebymarkcahah, you shouldn't have to do it from command line11:53
madebymarkcathat website had deb11:53

sabgentonwhats faster to set up flush box or openbox?11:54
bekksdear: Yes.11:54

jcb123As someone with a rather large, tight fitting tinfoil hat - I actually trust google a fair amount. They're pretty open about what they do with you're data - marketing.11:56
dprcsurveillance isn't marketing11:57
Jazzy_Jsabgenton, I prefer blackbox, but openbox is equally good.11:58
madebymarkcalel11:58
sabgentonJazzy_J:   just want to instal  openbox or flush box quick and dirty11:59
dearbekks: sabgenton: dprc: although i'm not into planning bomb blasts or weapon trading, my use is very simple and i have nothing to hide, but that does not mean i give up struggle to free people from those privacy and security issues, as i said im doing CCIE right now, i want to combine my skills with an operating system which respect privacy, so to find out the best ways to defeat those privacy intruders!11:59
jcb123dprc, Exactly, which is why the government isn't involved in marketing ;). Trust me, I've done a lot of research on this, and waded through internet's full of conspiracy. I'm an academic, I trust nothing without proof, and google has proved - to me - that I can trust them, somewhat.11:59
sabgentonJazzy_J: is open box easyer than flushbox?11:59
Jazzy_Japt-get install openbox  --- done.11:59
madebymarkcano one answer my question :(11:59
dprcdear: Ubuntu is the number one Linux platform on servers powering some of the largest organizations in the planet. No need to be overly paranoid12:00
sabgentonJazzy_J: like I don't care if open box is better than flush box if flush box is easyer  in the short term12:01
MonkeyDustmadebymarkca  as soon as someone has the answer, they will help you12:01
madebymarkca:( fine12:01
MonkeyDustmadebymarkca  repeat your question every 10 minutes or so, until someone enters who can help12:02
sabgentonJazzy_J: Im not saying I wouldn't use openbox latter for a more main system12:02
madebymarkcapretty sure this is what I need to do http://askubuntu.com/questions/155791/how-do-i-sudo-a-command-in-a-script-without-being-asked-for-a-password12:02
dprcdear: The Unity Lens/Scopes kerfuffle is something you may want to look into, however.12:02
sabgentonJazzy_J: or  is openbox easyer for the quick and dirty short term aswell12:02
sabgentonJazzy_J: opion?12:03
sabgenton:)12:03
Jazzy_Jsabgenton, I've used openbox a bit. it is very basic to install (literally - apt-get install openbox), edit the menus (text file) and you are good to go.  if you don't install a display manager, you can edit .xinitrc and enter a line "openbox" which will trigger the environment.12:03
deardprc: being number one in one in server environment is not enough if it doesn't respect the privacy of those organisations on operating system level, sure the organizations would have hard firewalls to secure them, but that is not the case for common people12:03
Jazzy_Jsabgenton, this is assuming that you have a working x server.12:04
sabgentonJazzy_J: yeah it will be beside unity12:04
sabgentonfor now12:04
Jazzy_JI do prefer openbox, but YMMV.12:04
sabgentonJazzy_J: I was lean toward open box any way but if flush box is not any faster to set up  open box it is12:05
sabgenton:)12:05
jcb123So, I'm setting up btnx, and I think I can do everything. I'm just wondering, is there a command to change mouse sensitivity? And how does it work?12:05
jcb123Id like to do a "If sensitivity = 50, change to 10. Else, change to 50"12:05
Jazzy_J:)  I use openbox on headless servers that I remote into when I get tired of the command line or on old architectures.12:05
deardprc: i can secure myself with hard firewalls, but as i said, i don't have anything to hide, it's just a hobby that i want to get into extrem security levels to test and help free people from those privacy intruders, i think i will have to learn some coding as well to review the codes myself, as i don't find much people reviewing it sincerely12:06
=== matteo is now known as Guest10112
jcb123Nevermind. Looking through settings, ubuntu's default is like, pretty much 0%. So I can't make the mouse super precise.12:07
dearbtw is ubuntu's firewall able to block kernel?12:08
sabgentonjcb123: in google we trust?12:10
sabgenton:P12:10
dprcdear: nothing can stop the kernel but you can mitigate many things with SELinux (does not ship by default in Ubuntu; will have to disable AppArmor first)12:10
BubbaGracewhat determines when an app is updated in the official repo?12:11
BubbaGracefor instance why is a 5 year old version of avidemux still the most recent12:12
dprcit is not the most _recent_ but it is the one currently _supported_12:12
BubbaGraceim aware its not the most recent. I meant for the repo it is12:13
dprcw/e is fed from repos is the newest version available for your release which is supported12:15
dprcyou can have newer and shiny things from upstream but you are on your own12:15
BubbaGracedefine supported? To go back to avidemux, the version in the repos is very broken if used with any modern codec12:15
BubbaGraceim just curious what goes in to the decision to add a newer version. I have no reason other than my own curiosity.12:16

deardprc: is linux mint more secure? being a new user of linux i don't know a lot of terms used in linux, and thats why my questions are rather simple :)12:28
lotuspsychjedear and dprc please keep it ubuntu support related in this chat12:28

ledywhen trying to use Unity, because it's forcing me to use Compiz which seems incompatible with my intel + displaylink cards. for unknown reason, the cards are loaded without acceleration. (Xorg with autoconfiguration and udev etc. untouched). trying the same with Mate or alternatives which don't use Compiz, work well out-of-the-box.12:33

GornleHi.  In my /etc/network/interfaces, I define both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses for my eth0 -- i.e. dual-stack.  Works as expected, except ... I define dns nameserver ONLY for the IPv6 address; my local DNS listens ONLY on IPv6.  Still, /etc/resolv.conf gets autogenerated with BOTH IPv6 & IPv4 nameservers defined, with the IPv4 == the gateway address set in /etc/network/interfaces.14:59
EriC^^fettler: do you have any ppa's installed?14:59

HedgeMagetyrog: Regarding signatures, I don't think my usual method, which involves a Wacom tablet and GIMP (plus, when I need to preserve text properties of a non-image PDF, manual injection of a graphic) is likely to be your cup of tea.  Though, if you have a tablet (or think you can get a decent signature into GIMP via mouse or touchpad or something) importing into GIMP for signature in cases where you don't mind17:41
HedgeMagethe PDF as a whole being an image rather than searchable text isn't hard.17:41

supersmilersI'm just wondering about what distro should I install on those HP laptops that supports Windows 7 Pro?18:18
OerHekssupersmilers, go for ubuntu/kubuntu18:19
supersmilersu mean soming like unity based or kde based?18:19
supersmilers*something18:20
kevindeJohnny_Linux: I will keep that in mind18:20
OerHekssupersmilers, sure, sounds like your machine should be able to handle that18:20
ioriakilde and you can configure ethernet connection ?18:20
OerHekssupersmilers, duo core, 2gb+, recent GPU ?18:21
kildeioria: yes I can configure it18:21
supersmilersHow do I know it's 64 bit or 32bit. those don't have OS installed just bios18:21
ioriakilde ifconfig ?18:21
OerHekssupersmilers, see specs from your vendor. or boot a live 32 bit iso, and check it with (terminal: lscpu)18:22
supersmilersits the Intel vPro i5 chips18:23
OerHeksi5, sure, go for 64 bit18:23
supersmilersHow do I boot it in UEFI mode?18:24
OerHekssee the wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI18:24
OerHeksand uefi manual from your machine, there are differences between vendors.18:25
supersmilerslike using rufus to make proper flashdrive that support uefi?18:25

jmakovhi. I'm experimenting with setting up the i2p stuff. After installing from repos and starting with "i2prouter start" I get "I2P Service may have failed to start. ". Any ideas what went wrong?22:36
bekksI'm kinda stuck, honestly: how would I go about allowing a set of commands being executed as another user, without having to enter my password?22:37
bekksanother user != root.22:37
jmakovbekks: sudo -u22:37
bekksjmakov: and doing so, will boil down on modifying /etc/sudoers in a way that user A is allowed to execute commands without password?22:38

raymondillojmakov: I didn't know that either. Just pointed ya to the docs. :)22:44

Fuchsbekks: and User_Alias VM_USERS = a, b23:13

danielle31Hi all. I'm having a strange problem. Near my house is a BT Openzone network. When I disconect from it, my laptop completely freezes. I can't change virtual terminal, sysrq doesn't work (it does normally), and the capslock light blinks intermittently. I can't even hold the power btn for power off. The only thng I can do is unplug the battery and the mains. Any idea what could cause this? And here's the weirdest thing: it only happens when disconecting23:48
danielle31from that specific wifi network.23:48
bekksFuchs: like this?: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11175420/ - and yes, camel is a username23:48

grendubuntu is largest flavor of linux?23:51
grendatm23:51
Fuchsgrend: very hard to measure. On the desktop: probably, at least if you count the various unofficial wallbuntus such as Linux Mint as well23:52
grendwhen linux was invented it was just 1 version called linux?23:52
bodhi_zazengrend, depends on how you count, it is if you consider it all Debian23:53
bodhi_zazenIf it is not all debian, how do you then define ubuntu derivatives ?23:53
Fuchsgrend: Linux was always (and still is) only the kernel23:53
grendFunch kernel is a core OS?23:54
grendto which extra functions are added?23:54
bodhi_zazenFuchs, lol, not really , you need at least kernel + GNU23:54
Fuchsgrend: Ubuntu, among others, are so called distributions, that create a nice bundle of that kernel, some user space tools and libraries (usually: GNU) and some end user applications such as desktop environments, web browsers and similar stuff you don't need23:54
rafaelsoaresbr_grend, linux is the kernel, everythng else was the GNU Project23:54
Fuchsbodhi_zazen: no you don't, you can use a different userland than GNU and you can use GNu with a different kernel than Linux.23:54
grendso if I boot kernel alone what can I do? nothing much?23:55
Fuchsgrend: kernel is just the very core of the operating system, usually doing stuff like talking to hardware, memory and thread management and the likes. That's not really a good topic for this channel here, I recommend you do some reading on that if you are interested.23:55
grendcool23:55
grendfunch: its to see what makes linux and ubuntu diff23:55
bodhi_zazenI suppose, it is an old argument , most people I know use the term "linux" to include the kernel + at least GNU if not more (DE)23:55
grendso first people invents linux and then its becomes bigger and one of the branches of bigger is ubuntu?23:56
Fuchsgrend: as a minor sidenote, you can use the tab key to auto-complete nicknames, so you would get mine wrong less often23:56
grendI did there is Fuchs and funch  here23:57
grend:)23:57
Fuchsgrend: it's not different, Ubuntu is one of the many Linux distributions that give end users a bundle containing of the Linux kernel, GNU and various applications and libraries, as I wrote. In general IRC is not really good for that kind of basic information, books, wikis and the likes is what I'd recommend.23:57
grendFunch well thats clear, ty :D23:58
