[00:00] <daftykins> your paste told you
[00:01] <Smokie> i got it running.. phew
[00:02] <Smokie> daftykins, i tried to enable mod_xml2enc and mod_proxy_html and it says the module does not exist for both
[00:04] <Smokie> ok.. i renamed the module files and restarted apache and now it starts normal
[00:04] <Smokie> magic?
[00:06] <wafflejock> Smokie, yeah typically with a2enmod you just tell it the part after the mod_
[00:07] <jhammons> Does 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] <wafflejock> Smokie, so something like sudo a2enmod proxy_html
[00:07] <wafflejock> Smokie, not sure about the module naming convention change between the versions but that might have happened
[00:08] <pEYEd> where does ubuntu hide the kernel? I mounted /dev/sda1 but nothing looks like a kernel in there   https://bpaste.net/show/917f9ec75b84
[00:09] <duckblaster> try ls /mount/boot/boot
[00:09] <cryptodan> the source of the kernel should be in /usr/src and the kernel images are in /boot
[00:09] <Ben64> pEYEd: looks like a windows partition
[00:10] <pEYEd> Ben64:  looks like somebody borked. it's got both
[00:10] <Ben64> pEYEd: what are you trying to do
[00:12] <pEYEd> Ben64: swap a kernel out. trying to get a rtl8188 loaded
[00:14] <Ben64> pEYEd: you're almost assuredly doing it wrong
[00:14] <pEYEd> Ben64: gentoo is my primary distro. I swap out kernels every day.
[00:15] <Ben64> i don't see how thats relevant, but good luck
[00:15] <reisio> every day? Sheesh
[00:15] <bazhang> !info linux-firmware
[00:15] <reisio> pEYEd: should still be in /boot/
[00:15] <bazhang> try that pEYEd
[00:16] <Jordan_U> pEYEd: sda1 is not your /boot/ partition, it's your Windows System Partition. You mounted the wrong partition.
[00:17] <Jordan_U> pEYEd: If you're currently booted into Ubuntu, then simply "ls /boot/" to see your kernels.
[00:17] <pEYEd> Jordan_U:   the * from fdisk -l threw me off. thank you
[00:18] <dw1> how can I name files so they appear at the top of a named listing in Ubuntu 14.04
[00:18] <dw1> !file.txt doesn't work
[00:18] <mrkirby153> Okay, so I was trying to get gitlab set up on my vps, however, sidekiq kills my memory. How do I reduce the worker count?
[00:18] <dw1> 0 maybe
[00:19] <Jordan_U> pEYEd: You're welcome.
[00:19] <sveta> dw1, _file.txt?
[00:20] <dw1> sveta: nope, still goes by first letter :/
[00:20] <phix> ok vino-server is using 100% CPU.  Is there a fix for this yet?  I have seen on forums that this issue has existed since 2006.
[00:20] <dw1> seems all special chars do :[
[00:21] <daftykins> Smokie: yeah because they likely need installing first
[00:21] <sveta> dw1, in what program, `ls' or a gui file manager?
[00:21] <dw1> sveta: nautilus
[00:21] <dw1> http://askubuntu.com/questions/115741/how-do-i-force-folder-view-sort-order-to-not-ignore-special-characters
[00:21] <dw1> woot
[00:22] <sveta> dw1: http://askubuntu.com/questions/10896/nautilus-sorts-the-name-column-mysteriously-how-can-i-change-the-collating-se has some explanation
[00:22] <dw1> sveta: thx
[00:23] <sveta> haha and yours does too :-)
[00:23] <sveta> this ideally would be in nautilus's help button. does it have a help viewer?
[00:24] <dw1> yea but not on this
[00:24] <dw1> not on this issue
[00:26] <Lurchtoke> hey peeps
[00:27] <Lurchtoke> lemme ask a question...
[00:27] <daftykins> lo
[00:27] <Lurchtoke> whats best widnows shell client to use if I am on same network?
[00:27] <Lurchtoke> err windows
[00:28] <daftykins> PuTTY is your classic, but i use KiTTY as it has URL parsing so you can click links
[00:28] <Lurchtoke> I am somewhat of a novice with ubuntu and installing it onto my new serer I am putting on this network
[00:28] <Lurchtoke> I am very familier with putty...played nethack on it for years
[00:29] <Lurchtoke> ok
[00:29] <Lurchtoke> so...just trying to verify something in my mind
[00:29] <mrkirby153> How can I make gitlab not eat my ram alive? It's currently using 90% of it
[00:29] <tortal> TIL: VcXsrv is the new Xming!
[00:29] <Lurchtoke> would it be wise to install ubuntu onto an ssd drive and archives onto IDE?
[00:29] <daftykins> Lurchtoke: 'archives' ?
[00:30] <Ben64> mrkirby153: ask gitlab?
[00:30] <mrkirby153> Ben64, what do you mean?
[00:30] <Lurchtoke> well....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] <wafflejock> mrkirby153, check for a gitlab channel
[00:30] <mrkirby153> there's a gitlab channel here?
[00:31] <Ben64> !alis | mrkirby153
[00:31] <Lurchtoke> gonna run moodle on my ubuntu box....LAMP server
[00:31] <wafflejock> mrkirby153, yeah about 230 people there
[00:31] <daftykins> Lurchtoke: oh so media. yes put /home on the mechanical disk.
[00:32] <Lurchtoke> ..../home as in the ubuntu install dir???
[00:32] <wafflejock> Lurchtoke, /home is for you documents and user specific config files
[00:32] <Lurchtoke> why.....is it bad idea to have ubuntu on an SSD drive?
[00:32] <Lurchtoke> ahhh....ok
[00:33] <wafflejock> Lurchtoke, no you just want where you put your media and stuff to be big
[00:33] <sveta> dw1: could you do me a favour, please? raise a nautilus bug suggesting that they add a help article about sorting order
[00:33] <wafflejock> Lurchtoke, the root of the filesystem with the binaries and all can be on an SSD so it's faster
[00:33] <Lurchtoke> forgive my ignorance
[00:34] <sveta> mrkirby153: http://www.libreboot.org/gitorious/ might be of interest to you
[00:34] <Ender> Hello 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 PC
[00:34] <sveta> Ender: welcome! what would you like to do?
[00:35] <mrkirby153> sveta, got any alternative less memory hevy apps?
[00:35] <wafflejock> mrkirby153, think that's what the gitorious link was for
[00:36] <wafflejock> mrkirby153, 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 though
[00:36] <Ender> well 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 grey
[00:36] <sveta> mrkirby153: 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] <daftykins> Ender: manual download isn't the best idea. which card?
[00:36] <Ender> r7 240
[00:37] <daftykins> Ender: which ubuntu?
[00:37] <Ender> uh.. checking...
[00:37] <reborn> help me, my computer has fan lousy.
[00:38] <reisio> /join #fan-nonlousy
[00:38] <Ender> 15.04
[00:38] <Lurchtoke> random 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] <daftykins> Lurchtoke: no
[00:39] <daftykins> Lurchtoke: not unless it has onboard graphics
[00:39] <daftykins> Ender: have you tried using the additional drivers to use the built in fglrx?
[00:39] <Tony8> Hey 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] <reisio> Lurchtoke: if you don't need a display, you don't need a video card
[00:39] <Lurchtoke> if I dont need to be local and look at monitor...why even load up video card?
[00:40] <reborn> reisio, there is no people in channel.
[00:40] <daftykins> Lurchtoke: because computers don't boot without one
[00:40] <reisio> reborn: I knowses
[00:40] <Ender> no - no idea - this is the first time i've used linux - i don't even know what fglrx is
[00:40] <reisio> computers also don't really ship without onboard video
[00:40] <reisio> so...
[00:40] <daftykins> reisio: you are assuming this ones age
[00:40] <Lurchtoke> reiso....incorrect
[00:40] <reisio> Lurchtoke: most likely the answer is yes
[00:40] <reisio> daftykins: nah
[00:41] <daftykins> reisio: and you are also wrong :) some intel mobos don't even provide ports for use of the on-die graphics
[00:41] <Lurchtoke> plenty o boards without onboard video
[00:41] <reisio> daftykins: yeah, and some computers use punch cards
[00:41] <Lurchtoke> lol......stand back
[00:41] <reisio> Lurchtoke: not any you have, though :p
[00:42] <daftykins> Ender: ok well start typing drivers after clicking the 'dash' icon top left
[00:42] <Lurchtoke> hmmm....dunno if this asus bnoard will boot without video card....good point bout the non-boot without card issue
[00:42] <Lurchtoke> er board
[00:43] <daftykins> yeah you pick up a few things when you've been working with PC hardware for 20+ years ;)
[00:44] <Tony8> Hey 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?
[00:44] <daftykins> Tony8: laptop?
[00:44] <mrkirby153> sveta, I really don't like how gitweb works
[00:44] <mrkirby153> *looks
[00:44] <Tony8> Desktop
[00:44] <Jordan_U> Tony8: 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] <daftykins> Tony8: wouldn't hurt to pull the mains power supply cable and let it sit for a few mins, then power up again
[00:45] <Ender> ok it has come up with 3 options . xorgx server. fglrx and fglrx-updates
[00:45] <sveta> mrkirby153: 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] <daftykins> Ender: try fglrx updates
[00:45] <sveta> mrkirby153: and their philosophy of offering github lite and upgrading people to a proprietary program is not good.
[00:46] <sveta> mrkirby153: 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/try
[00:46] <mrkirby153> sveta, that's a 404
[00:46] <mrkirby153> what you linked
[00:46] <sveta> ah crap. one mo
[00:46] <sveta> http://demo.redmine.org/
[00:46] <Ender> ok it's updating then a restart apparently - letting it go then hopefully i'll be back :)
[00:47] <daftykins> Ender: yep
[00:47] <Tony8> Loading an older kernel worked, thanks Jordan.
[00:47] <daftykins> o0
[00:47] <mrkirby153> sveta, from first looks, that doesn't look like a VCS software
[00:48] <sveta> click a project name and look at the tabs at the top
[00:48] <Jordan_U> Tony8: You're welcome. Now we should figure out why the update broke USB though, you shouldn't stay with old insecure kernels.
[00:48] <osvaldoram4> Hello , someone who can guide me in a mail server
[00:48] <jpds> osvaldoram4: Guide you in a mail server.
[00:49] <daftykins> setting one up? you're better off using hosted email
[00:50] <sveta> mrkirby153: http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Features#Repository-browser-and-diff-viewer
[00:50] <linuxlue> Port 80 is closed.... I'm cursing out my web server right now
[00:51] <linuxlue> What in the hell?
[00:51] <osvaldoram4> I installed Postfix , then decided to test from telnet, to prevent spam
[00:51] <jpds> linuxlue: Cursing out?
[00:51] <osvaldoram4> Wanted to know how authentication request to send local mail to local
[00:51] <mrkirby153> sveta, would bumping my ram to 2GB help?
[00:51] <mrkirby153> sveta, on my VPS? Its only a dollar more
[00:52] <sveta> mrkirby153: 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] <mrkirby153> sveta, how so?
[00:52] <sveta> mrkirby153: if you read the first URL you'll understand. I can't explain it any better than it does.
[00:52] <linuxlue> jpds: I can't for the life of me get to my web server from outside my internal network
[00:52] <sveta> mrkirby153: http://www.libreboot.org/gitorious/  (it talks about both gitorious and gitlab)
[00:52] <linuxlue> from the public
[00:53] <Dr_Dan> Q:  whats the status on meizu or other ubuntu phone for USA?  When will they go on sale?
[00:54] <Jordan_U> Tony8: Please file a bug report about this by running "ubuntu-bug linux".
[00:56] <linuxlue> There is no firewall enable in 14.04, right?
[00:57] <daftykins> linuxlue: UFW - check with "sudo iptables -L"
[00:57] <jpds> linuxlue: Not by default.
[00:57] <Jordan_U> Tony8: 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] <linuxlue> jpds: So why is my port 80 closed
[00:57] <daftykins> linuxlue: more than likely you picked the wrong LAN IP / forwarded a port wrong / your ISP blocks it
[00:58] <HewloThere> Hey, can someone link me to a guide to set up DNS in Ubuntu 14.04?
[00:58] <linuxlue> daftykins: my ISP must have blocked it because I can ssh into it
[00:59] <daftykins> linuxlue: so what've you got, apache test page working fine internally?
[00:59] <linuxlue> Yes
[00:59] <daftykins> linuxlue: are you testing by putting in your external IP whilst at home? because not all routers allow that
[01:00] <linuxlue> daftykins: I'm using my mobile phone to test my address
[01:00] <cryptodan> linuxlue: use www.network-tools.com to test for http headers on your external ip via www.whatismyip.com
[01:00] <linuxlue> I even set up a no-ip just now
[01:00] <Tony8> Thanks Jordan.
[01:00] <Jordan_U> Tony8: You're welcome. Thank you for filing a bug report to help prevent this from happening to others.
[01:00] <linuxlue> daftykins: http://mrluisamador.ddns.net/
[01:03] <daftykins> linuxlue: your port 80 is closed, i think you forwarded wrong.
[01:03] <linuxlue> daftykins: I hard could it be? It's only four drop down boxes on my router
[01:04] <linuxlue> SSh works fine
[01:04] <Jordan_U> linuxlue: Do you have a separate modem, or is your router a combined modem and Access Point?
[01:05] <daftykins> linuxlue: well then reconfigure apache to run on another port, then forward that for testing.
[01:05] <daftykins> but trust me, human error happens :P
[01:05] <linuxlue> Jordan_U: No, it's two different objects. One a router and the other a modem
[01:06] <Jordan_U> linuxlue: Are both performing NAT, or only one of them?
[01:06] <linuxlue> daftykins: I have no doubt that it's a me error
[01:06] <linuxlue> Jordan_U: No! I only forward the port on the router
[01:06] <daftykins> US cable connection?
[01:07] <daftykins> i can't tell what optimum do
[01:07] <linuxlue> daftykins: Yes, it's a server. lol
[01:07] <daftykins> what?
[01:08] <linuxlue> daftykins: Yes, it's connect with cable
[01:08] <linuxlue> connected**
[01:08] <daftykins> i'm talking about whether your ISP provides over TV coaxial
[01:08] <daftykins> not whether it's plugged in or not =|
[01:08] <linuxlue> Ah!
[01:09] <linuxlue> daftykins: TV coaxial
[01:09] <daftykins> so yeah, either call your ISPs support and ask if they block port 80, or go and test configure on another port, k?
[01:09] <killfacebook> join #freenode, #twitter
[01:10] <linuxlue> daftykins: I'll buy you a beer if I get it working with your help
[01:10] <linuxlue> lol
[01:10] <daftykins> that won't be possible
[01:10] <killfacebook> fail
[01:10] <wonko> ok, i'm getting extremely frustrated here.
[01:10] <linuxlue> daftykins: I'll try it with another port number
[01:13] <daftykins> wonko: are you actually going to ask a question then, or just stay frustrated? :D
[01:14] <linuxlue> daftykins: Just to be certain. I'm changing the port to 4000
[01:14] <dw1> sveta: i just named it 000 - readme.txt :p
[01:14] <linuxlue> daftykins: The files I have to change are port.conf = Listen 4000
[01:14] <daftykins> linuxlue: ok use 'netstat -tuln' to confirm it's listening on that once you stop and start the service.
[01:15] <sveta> dw1: yes; but could you /please/ file a bug? I don't have a launchpad account that I remember a password to.
[01:15] <daftykins> linuxlue: why are you telling me how to configure apache? :)
[01:15] <sveta> dw1: I would like the next users to not waste time finding the answer scribbled on a askubuntu^W^W^W^Wa fence
[01:15] <dw1> sveta: it's not uncommon for such backend things to be hidden
[01:15] <linuxlue> daftykins: No, I'm asking you to make sure I don't miss a step
[01:15] <ModelEngine> !info Synaptic
[01:15] <sveta> dw1: they should be aware of it but okay, I left a note to do it myself when I get home
[01:15] <saiarcot895> linuxlue: Depending on the router, you might be able to listen on outbound port 4000 and forward that to inbound port 80.
[01:16] <sveta> dw1: the way most programs do it is have a 'user guide' and a 'advanced guide' separate documents, NOT have users find the answer in random places
[01:16] <dw1> sveta: https://www.google.com/search?q=nautilus+LC_COLLATE
[01:16] <linuxlue> saiarcot895: Thanks!
[01:16] <dw1> it is not an unknown issue :)
[01:16] <sveta> dw1: people should not even be online
[01:16] <sveta> dw1: they should open a program, open a help viewer, and get the answer
[01:17] <daftykins> dw1: i think sveta's idea is it'd be nice to make a change here - so do us a favour ;)
[01:17] <sveta> haha
[01:17] <linuxlue> daftykins: In 000-default.conf, I change it to <VirtualHost *:4000>
[01:18] <wonko> daftykins: both! :)
[01:18] <daftykins> linuxlue: i'd rather just hear the result
[01:18] <wonko> sorry, putting it all together in a gist
[01:18] <wonko> https://gist.github.com/bhechinger/09e94f7df865e95d4f04
[01:18] <linuxlue> daftykins: OK! Sorry! lol
[01:18] <wonko> so, when pointed to the apt-mirror repo I've setup, I can't install ntp.
[01:18] <wonko> the package is there, but it just refuses to see/install it
[01:19] <wonko> if I change just the hostname in the sources.list.d files to point to where I'm mirroring from, it works
[01:19] <wonko> as shown at the bottom after: CHANGE SOURCES
[01:19] <wonko> so something isn't quite right with my mirror I'm guessing?
[01:19] <wonko> but what?
[01:19] <wonko> apt-mirror isn't a terribly complicated thiong
[01:19] <wonko> thing*
[01:21] <wonko> here is my mirror.list
[01:21] <wonko> https://gist.github.com/bhechinger/c0a073c49d1e9eecb5f9
[01:22] <saiarcot895> wonko: What does "apt-cache policy ntp" say? (That's easier to read than showpkg)
[01:24] <wonko> saiarcot895: https://gist.github.com/bhechinger/1c9aa28d173299d92333
[01:25] <saiarcot895> wonko: Pretty sure the -10 priority for your mirror has something to do with your problem
[01:26] <saiarcot895> wonko: Do you have anything in /etc/apt/preferences or /etc/apt/preferences.d/ that is pinning packages?
[01:27] <wonko> let me check
[01:28] <wonko> oh yes
[01:29] <wonko> there is a .pref file for each sources file pinning it to -10
[01:29] <Nikesh> Why does the Ubuntu GPG guide state that when setting it up to "make sure that the name on the key is not a pseudonym, and that it matches the name in your passport, or other government issued photo-identification!" ?
[01:29] <daftykins> no idea
[01:29] <reisio> Nikesh: don't cross post
[01:29] <wonko> saiarcot895: I think that's it!
[01:29] <wonko> now to beat some sense into this puppet module
[01:30] <linuxlue> Yeah! I'm just going to throw my laptop against the wall
[01:30] <saiarcot895> Nikesh: 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] <wonko> OH!
[01:31] <wonko> Well crap
[01:31] <wonko> it's the HOWTO that's to blame
[01:31] <wonko> I'm setting the pinning to -10
[01:31] <wonko> without realizing what that would do
[01:31] <wonko> shit
[01:31] <daftykins> language!
[01:31] <daftykins> if the guide is wrong, edit it?
[01:32] <saiarcot895> Or maybe it's so that you don't mess up your system in case something went wrong along the way.
[01:32] <HiGregS> Good 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?
[01:33] <daftykins> keyboards do not have drivers
[01:33] <sveta> why?
[01:33] <Ender_> hmmm even custom ones like logitechs g series?
[01:34] <wonko> daftykins: yeah, i'll definitely be doing that.
[01:34] <wonko> thanks everyone!
[01:34] <daftykins> maybe there's some program to chat to those ones silly displays but i don't know
[01:34] <daftykins> that's different
[01:34] <saiarcot895> sveta: 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] <sveta> ok
[01:35] <Ender_> i thought there might be as on my last reboot it would not let me type anything
[01:35] <daftykins> that's a novel one
[01:39] <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] <daftykins> ubuntu.
[01:40] <daftykins> the terminal is an app, run it
[01:40] <daftykins> it lets you type command line commands in the GUI.
[01:40] <HiGregS> Ender_, I think you can get to Ubuntu terminal with Ctrl-Alt-T
[01:41] <Ender_> ok i see - this is basically a command prompt?
[01:41] <daftykins> yes but far more powerful than cmd on Windows
[01:41] <HiGregS> Ender_, yes.
[01:41] <wonko> my I love 'mco puppet runall'
[01:41] <wonko> :)
[01:41] <saiarcot895> Note that there's also a couple of reviews on Amazon for the Logitech G510 and G550 keyboards saying it doesn't work on Linux
[01:41] <wafflejock> Ender_, you can also get to a TTY if the display is failing for some reason using Ctrl+Alt+F1 and using Ctrl+Alt+F7 to get back to your graphical display
[01:41] <HiGregS> I don't really know the difference between "terminal" and "xterm"...
[01:41] <ModelEngine> !info trusty-backports
[01:42] <ModelEngine> !info vivid
[01:42] <saiarcot895> !ubottu vivid
[01:42] <wafflejock> HiGregS, there is the shell itself and there are graphical wrappers for the shell is my understanding
[01:42] <saiarcot895> !ubuntu vivid
[01:42] <ModelEngine> what is: vivid?
[01:42] <HiGregS> wafflejock, agreed. When i learned linux, there was TTY and xterm.
[01:42] <daftykins> ModelEngine: do that in a PM please if you must assault the bot
[01:43] <ModelEngine> daftykins: lol, just want to know what vivid is and why it is so limited
[01:43] <HiGregS> ModelEngine, vivid is the name for Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet", I think.
[01:43] <daftykins> ModelEngine: and your web browser's search engine doesn't work?
[01:43] <ModelEngine> oic holy crap, didn't know there was a new release!
[01:43] <wafflejock> ModelEngine, ubuntu releases every 6 months
[01:43] <saiarcot895> Speaking of the bot, is it just exclamation mark followed by the keyword to look up?
[01:43] <ModelEngine> daftykins: its not alright to ask the bot?
[01:44] <wafflejock> ModelEngine, april and october .04 and .10 releases with the year as the major version number
[01:44] <ModelEngine> wafflejock: is vivid a lts?
[01:44] <daftykins> ModelEngine: well you seem to not know how it works :) and it spams the channel
[01:44] <daftykins> ModelEngine: no
[01:44] <wafflejock> ModelEngine, no
[01:44] <wafflejock> ModelEngine, 14.04 is LTS
[01:44] <wafflejock> LTS every 2 years
[01:44] <ModelEngine> daftykins: oic sorry :(
[01:44] <HiGregS> and 16.04 will be LTS
[01:44] <ModelEngine> wafflejock: thx
[01:44] <SchrodingersScat> !bot | saiarcot895
[01:44] <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 ignorance
[01:44] <saiarcot895> Ok, thanks SchrodingersScat, it's been a while.
[01:45] <sveta> saiarcot895: yes, just an exclamation mark
[01:45] <wafflejock> Ender_, 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 ask
[01:46] <linuxlue> daftykins: So I have the port open now but now my site isn't loading
[01:46] <ModelEngine> daftykins: how to pm the bot?
[01:46] <Ender_> excellent ty - I'll try not to be too annoying :)
[01:46] <wafflejock> ModelEngine, /msg ubottu !bot
[01:46] <HiGregS> I have an XPS13 with broadcom wireless. How do I get a bootable USB with Ubuntu 15.04 that includes the right driver?
[01:46] <ModelEngine> wafflejock: cool tks
[01:46] <wafflejock> ModelEngine, most clients you double click the username/nick to open a PM window
[01:47] <daftykins> HiGregS: you don't, you'll need to get the packages needed off the drive / another flash drive to bring them over
[01:47] <wafflejock> HiGregS, 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 then
[01:48] <daftykins> Ender_: also consider doing the free course LFS101x at edx.org
[01:48] <ModelEngine> daftykins: wafflejock: how to ask it questions
[01:48] <ModelEngine> daftykins: wafflejock: the bot i mean
[01:49] <daftykins> ModelEngine: sigh.
[01:49] <HiGregS> wafflejock, 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] <wafflejock> ModelEngine, 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 package
[01:49] <ModelEngine> daftykins: wafflejock: actually, n/m, can either of you recommend an amzing article or somehting like a crash course on irc's, ubuntu, etc
[01:50] <wafflejock> HiGregS, 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 well
[01:50] <daftykins> ModelEngine: i just did above.
[01:50] <wafflejock> ModelEngine, think daftykins just posted a couple of resources to Ender_
[01:50] <ModelEngine> searching
[01:51] <HiGregS> wafflejock, 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 XPS13
[01:51] <wafflejock> HiGregS, a .deb file is basically equivalent to a .msi in windows
[01:51] <ModelEngine> daftykins: 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 soon
[01:51] <wafflejock> HiGregS, 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 that
[01:51] <HiGregS> the idea is that I should get live working prior to installing, so I don't end up bricking my computer.
[01:52] <HiGregS> wafflejock, yes they ship with 14.04 but there are a few problems that 15.04 is supposed to solve...
[01:52] <wafflejock> HiGregS, you have some sort of external backup device? extra drive lying around or NAS or anything?
[01:52] <daftykins> ModelEngine: ok be nice if you could reduce highlighting me now please :)
[01:53] <HiGregS> I have a few microsd cards...(XPS13 has an SD slot...)
[01:53] <wafflejock> HiGregS, 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 install
[01:54] <wafflejock> HiGregS, 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 rebooting
[01:55] <wafflejock> HiGregS, for clonezilla though you need some media/drive that's big enough to store all the Windows data
[01:55] <yurikoles> you can save you windows
[01:55] <HiGregS> ok. 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] <ModelEngine> sure, i had to look up highlighting on the net, and now i know what it is. are you an op?
[01:55] <HiGregS> wafflejock, I don't have windows. Ordered the "developer edition" with 14.04 stock.
[01:56] <wafflejock> HiGregS, ah okay so just testing from the LiveUSB before upgrading
[01:56] <wafflejock> HiGregS, 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 with
[01:56] <HiGregS> ok. Seems like I'm following the right path, despite tons of problems... thx...
[01:56] <HiGregS> I don't have another computer, unfortunately....
[01:56] <daftykins> HiGregS: you're better off staying with LTS.
[01:57] <wafflejock> yeah 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 often
[01:58] <wafflejock> but 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 14.04
[01:58] <HiGregS> wafflejock, 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] <ModelEngine> wafflejock: how to go to ops channel for ubuntu?
[01:59] <wafflejock> ModelEngine, just /join #ubuntu-ops I believe some channels require registration
[01:59] <ModelEngine> thx
[02:00] <wafflejock> HiGregS, yeah is this your first Linux computer?
[02:00] <HiGregS> first in a long time. Started a long time ago using kernel version 0.98
[02:02] <wafflejock> HiGregS, 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 minuses
[02:02] <HiGregS> How big should my /home partition be, if I do that?
[02:03] <HiGregS> sorry... how big should the OS partition be?
[02:03] <daftykins> it'd always be the remainder of the disk, the size of / would be... probably not even over 20GB
[02:04] <wafflejock> HiGregS, 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 typical
[02:04] <INeedYourHelp> Can someone guide me through how to reinstall grub thru terminal??
[02:05] <wafflejock> yeah 20GB outside my /home right now
[02:05] <yurikoles> if you'd like to test all variants of Desktops (spins) of ubuntu then may be 30 GB
[02:05] <INeedYourHelp> Also my efi partition is deleted
[02:05] <HiGregS> thx wafflejock and yurikoles for the suggestions on '/' size.e
[02:05] <yurikoles> in terabyte times it's veru low
[02:06] <HiGregS> I'm on 256GB SSD. so small is good :-)
[02:06] <wafflejock> HiGregS, indeed I'm on 128GB so gotta keep an eye on that here
[02:06] <INeedYourHelp> Does anyone know how to fix this "boot device not found error"?
[02:06] <HiGregS> INeedYourHelp, it's due to UEFI vs. Legacy.
[02:07] <HiGregS> My USB stick boots in Legacy, my Hard Drive in UEFI.
[02:07] <yurikoles> for first time I'm suggesting you set all to /
[02:07] <HiGregS> I've been directed to: https://askubuntu.com/questions/395879/how-to-create-uefi-only-bootable-usb-live-media/
[02:07] <INeedYourHelp> Ok. Im trying to use a liveusb to boot Ubuntu but its just not working
[02:07] <yurikoles> since there is no other distros except ubuntu for newcomers
[02:08] <INeedYourHelp> The only thing i can boot is the Super Grub2 Disk. Even my gparted iso doesnt work
[02:10] <HiGregS> INeedYourHelp, 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] <yurikoles> I think that reason is not in images
[02:10] <HiGregS> At some point, you'll probably need to make sure both images are UEFI compatible.
[02:10] <yurikoles> but in way you that you prepare usb stick
[02:10] <HiGregS> Trust  yurikoles over any thing I say...
[02:11] <INeedYourHelp> Oh so i should use .img istead of .iso?
[02:11] <yurikoles> no
[02:11] <yurikoles> just .iso and win32diskimager
[02:11] <yurikoles> it's a program for writing images to usb stick
[02:12] <yurikoles> it will boot both legacy and uefi
[02:12] <yurikoles> just make sure to select *.* mask in file type filter
[02:12] <INeedYourHelp> The thing is i cant boot into any OS
[02:12] <yurikoles> by default it shows only .img and directories
[02:13] <yurikoles> do you have a notebook with offtopic 8?
[02:13] <yurikoles> oh shi
[02:13] <INeedYourHelp> No but im using an android app called DriveDroid which lets me boot iso files
[02:13] <yurikoles> so you have gpated image and bricked pc?
[02:14] <INeedYourHelp> Yea basically
[02:14] <yurikoles> you need to use console
[02:14] <yurikoles> I will help you
[02:14] <INeedYourHelp> I can download iso files though. I just need something that boots
[02:14] <yurikoles> how do you going to write iso file?
[02:15] <INeedYourHelp> And so far none of the distros ive downloaded boot
[02:15] <yurikoles> do you have a second pc?
[02:15] <daftykins> that's your machines fault not the images
[02:15] <yurikoles> please clrify
[02:15] <daftykins> unless you're writing them funny
[02:15] <INeedYourHelp> No just this bricked one
[02:15] <yurikoles> so
[02:15] <yurikoles> do you have any system installed?
[02:15] <yurikoles> do you have a second flash drive?
[02:16] <INeedYourHelp> I have xubuntu installed but it doesnt boot
[02:16] <INeedYourHelp> Because my efi partition is deleted
[02:16] <yurikoles> ok, fear not
[02:17] <yurikoles> are u now in gparted image?
[02:17] <INeedYourHelp> I just need to know of a bootable iso that can fix this "boot device not found" error
[02:17] <INeedYourHelp> No gparted doesnt boot
[02:17] <yurikoles> there is no such iso
[02:18] <yurikoles> how do you prepare flash drive?
[02:18] <INeedYourHelp> Super Grub2 Disk boots but i cant do much with it.
[02:18] <yurikoles> ok
[02:18] <daftykins> INeedYourHelp is using a smartphone afaiui
[02:18] <yurikoles> it's better
[02:19] <INeedYourHelp> Thats right. Im using the "DriveDroid" app instead of an actual usb
[02:19] <INeedYourHelp> It worked in the past

[02:25] <wafflejock> haha
[02:26] <E-Knight> see you later ... & good night
[02:26] <INeedYourHelp> I guess no one knows a fix either
[02:27] <yurikoles> did you tried  detect any os?
[02:27] <yurikoles> sorry, I was in another chat
[02:28] <INeedYourHelp> Yea. X,k,l,ubuntu, Opensuse, none work.
[02:28] <daftykins> fix? get a flash drive and do it normally ;)
[02:29] <yurikoles> what kind of message do you get?
[02:30] <yurikoles> you, the problem is not in linux, it's in a lack of hardware
[02:30] <ph88> i fell asleep doing dist upgrade on battery ... so laptop ran out of battery. I start my pc and configure all packages. 2 questions: how can i trigger getting this menu again? http://pastebin.com/zeKdrLzG and how can i confirm the dist upgrade was succesful ?
[02:31] <yurikoles> just yes
[02:31] <daftykins> ph88: sudo apt-get -f install
[02:31] <daftykins> or dpkg-reconfigure -a
[02:32] <yurikoles> dpkg --configure -a

[02:37] <daftykins> #ubuntu-server might be better

[02:38] <aardmark> daftykins: are you suggesting that for me?
[02:38] <daftykins> yes
[02:38] <aardmark> ok thanks!

[02:39] <santos> hi :)
[02:40] <santos> good evening..
[02:40] <santos> some girl to talk?
[02:40] <daftykins> santos: that's inappropriate.
[02:40] <santos> I use that for the first time! lol
[02:41] <santos> sorry so..
[02:41] <daftykins> ubuntu support only in here.
[02:41] <santos> what kind of room are this?
[02:41] <santos> ohh hoo good ..cool
[02:41] <daftykins> or you might prefer #ubuntu-fr
[02:41] <HewloThere> Hi! I've got an Ubuntu dedi. I'm trying to make another root user (to disable root) but it's not working?
[02:42] <santos> Im a new user Elementary os. and Thinks thats cool :)
[02:42] <daftykins> !elementary | santos
[02:42] <daftykins> HewloThere: you don't disable root, you disable root SSH login :)
[02:42] <HewloThere> That's what I meant. =P
[02:42] <daftykins> good stuff
[02:42] <HewloThere> Anyways, it's not working to create a new root user?
[02:42] <daftykins> so you edited sshd_config then restarted the service huh?
[02:42] <HewloThere> a new user with root perms *
[02:43] <daftykins> well no you create a user then add them to the group 'admin'
[02:43] <HewloThere> How would I do that? usermod -g admin <name> ?
[02:43] <yurikoles> there is only one root in linux
[02:43] <bodhi_zazen> allow ssh root login without-password
[02:43] <yurikoles> it can has another name, bu id must be 0
[02:44] <bodhi_zazen> well linux identifies users by id , not name
[02:44] <HewloThere> yurikoles, I said create a new user with root permissions, not another root user.
[02:44] <daftykins> HewloThere: adduser user group ; i think
[02:44] <HewloThere> I've already made the user. =P
[02:44] <daftykins> HewloThere: yes and that works with the above.
[02:45] <yurikoles> root permissions has only user with id o
[02:45] <yurikoles> 0
[02:45] <HewloThere> usermod -g admin name ?
[02:45] <daftykins> oy vey people today
[02:45] <ModelEngine> daftykins: I don't appreciate your tone of condescension, there is a policy regarding how you treat ppl here, and I intend to make sure you don't get away with treating newer people like crap.
[02:45] <daftykins> ModelEngine: i just want you to stop talking to me :)
[02:45] <HewloThere> Err... The admin group doesn't exit.
[02:46] <daftykins> what version are you on?
[02:46] <ModelEngine> daftykins: and I just needed to ask a question, but you thot it was appropriate to be condescending
[02:46] <HewloThere> ModelEngine: daftykins isn't treating people like crap?
[02:46] <HewloThere> 14.04.2 LTS
[02:46] <daftykins> ModelEngine: please stop making things up - and stop talking to me :)
[02:46] <yurikoles> maybe sudo group
[02:46] <yurikoles> sorry group sudo
[02:46] <HewloThere> What?
[02:46] <daftykins> HewloThere: yeah the group changed between some versions so it depends which you're on
[02:46] <yurikoles> replace admin with sudo
[02:47] <HewloThere> Mmkay. Lemme try. =)
[02:48] <HewloThere> Epic. It works! (I think) How can I test I have root perms?
[02:48] <newradio> I just installed atom on my ubuntu, but the font is very tiny on my retina. How can i fix that?
[02:49] <HewloThere> Nevermind. =P

[02:51] <santos> elementary is Linux to. so can you help me with some commands to the terminal?
[02:51] <santos> :)
[02:51] <daftykins> santos: no it's a different distro and has its' own problems, can't help in here sorry.
[02:51] <daftykins> just join their channel
[02:52] <santos> there is no one there in the room answering......
[02:52] <daftykins> ah well
[02:53] <daftykins> ModelEngine: it's all in your head.
[02:53] <ModelEngine> no, dafty, it is in the screenshot that i took, you jerk
[02:53] <daftykins> you are completely wrong, you took some pics of me helping people
[02:54] <daftykins> now i'd like to get back to support now, so could you stop trolling me perhaps? it's flattering you're picking me specifically, but really - it's enough now :)
[02:55] <santos> putain....
[02:55] <HewloThere> ModelEngine, what the hell? He wasn't doing anything wrong at all. He was helping people, you were just harassing him. He was giving you advice he should anyone. If I were new and asked something like that, I would go to the manual.
[02:55] <ModelEngine> you obviously don't really care about helping ppl
[02:56] <daftykins> santos: there is no need to use disrespectful non-English in this channel :)
[02:56] <ModelEngine> well, in the policies of irc, it states that you DO NOT tell someone to RTFM, or google it
[02:56] <HewloThere> daftykins was helping me, ModelEngine. I don't know if you are smart enough to see that, but he was trying to help you.
[02:56] <HewloThere> What ModelEngine?
[02:57] <daftykins> !ops | ModelEngine trolling and disrupting the channel
[02:57] <HewloThere> What policies ModelEngine?

[02:58] <mleeming> Hi guys, new user here. I've been having some troubles with most of the desktop applications being quite unresponsive. For example, when I start typing it sometimes takes about half a second for the characters to appear on screen. Eclipse is the slowest.
[02:58] <ModelEngine> mleeming: w/e you do, don't ask daftykins for help, he will condescend you like crazy
[02:58] <wafflejock> mleeming, take a look at your system monitor or top
[02:59] <mleeming> My machine is fairly new, and it doesn't seem to be doing much that would slow it down.
[02:59] <daftykins> ModelEngine: I suppose you must have somehow felt embarassed about not knowing how ubottu works - but i did nothing of the kind. Please drop it now and move on, you're just disrupting things.
[02:59] <HewloThere> ModelEngine: If it's something really simple or that can EASILY be found on the Internet, he can direct you to the manual. That's why there is a manual command on the IRC bot WRITTEN BY THE CHANNEL OPS.

[03:00] <wafflejock> mleeming, you'll have to check the processes running to know, don't paste big text in the chat
[03:00] <wafflejock> mleeming, use paste.ubuntu.com
[03:00] <mleeming> Sorry.
[03:00] <ModelEngine> yeah, it says specifically to not tell ppl to RTFM or google it, as it is RUDE!
[03:00] <kilde> Can anyone here help me hash out why my either net connection will not connect anymore? I am tethered to my phone now so I can use IRC.
[03:00] <ModelEngine> kilde: don't ask daftykins
[03:00] <mleeming> top doesn't show any obvious culprits.
[03:01] <HewloThere> ModelEngine: PLEASE GO AWAY!
[03:01] <mleeming> When watching video in vlc it often pauses for a few seconds.
[03:01] <daftykins> wow i've got my own little fan.
[03:01]  * phunyguy looks up
[03:01] <daftykins> ModelEngine: it means don't tell people "RTFM" - i linked you to the actual manual which is a great learning resource. I think you've got the wrong end of the stick here...
[03:01] <wafflejock> mleeming, only similar behavior I've had recently is to do with backups running in the background
[03:02] <mleeming> I suspect it might be drivers not installed correctly?
[03:02] <ModelEngine> daftykins: i can see that all you care about it yourself, nobody else
[03:02] <phunyguy> daftykins: ModelEngine: can we take this to #ubuntu-ops?
[03:02] <daftykins> sure
[03:02] <ModelEngine> phunyguy: yes, i would like to, but i tried at 19:00, and they didn't care
[03:02] <mleeming> Is there some way to check the driver status?
[03:02] <ModelEngine> nobody was around to do anything at all
[03:02] <mleeming> It could be that I'm running it on a laptop with unsupported hardware.
[03:03] <HewloThere> Because people have lives, ModelEngine. The world doesn't revolve around you.

[03:04] <officialxian> Hai
[03:05] <yurikoles> привет
[03:05] <mleeming> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11158438/
[03:05] <officialxian> I have an issue with logging in, I get a segfault every time I log in and I get sent back to the login immediately.
[03:05] <mleeming> Thanks yurikoles, is that helpful? I'm not sure if that's expected or not.
[03:05] <yurikoles> graphics seems to be working
[03:06] <newradio> is there a way to get the 3 finger workspace movement work on macbook pro for ubuntu?
[03:06] <yurikoles> run ubuntu inside virtualbox?
[03:06] <OerHeks> mleeming, AMD RS880 is the 4xxx series?
[03:07] <mleeming> Hmm, how do I do that?
[03:07] <OerHeks> lspci | grep VGA
[03:07] <mleeming> @OerHeks how do I check?
[03:07] <mleeming> Thanks.
[03:07] <yurikoles> yes
[03:08] <yurikoles> it is
[03:08] <yurikoles> google says
[03:08] <mleeming> 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS880M [Mobility Radeon HD 4225/4250]
[03:08] <BlackHorn> Hey guys, I just set up my laptop to dual boot Ubuntu and now, when I boot into windows, it seems like when I log in, it takes a little longer for the start up processes to boot up. Does anyone know why?
[03:08] <OerHeks> guess you have to do with the open drivers.
[03:09]  * yurikoles guessing
[03:09] <BlackHorn> also, my ubuntu is on a different drive.
[03:09] <mleeming> Ah, okay. So this graphics card is unsupported?
[03:09] <OerHeks> see the !ati factoid
[03:09] <yurikoles> it is supported
[03:09] <OerHeks> !ati
[03:10] <reisio> matrox, wow
[03:10] <yurikoles> BlackHorn: it is a room about ubuntu
[03:10] <BlackHorn> and it occurred when I installed ubuntu.
[03:10] <yurikoles> for any windows issue go to #dotnet
[03:10] <BlackHorn> I don't know if it is ubuntu related, or windows related.
[03:10] <mleeming> !ati
[03:11] <yurikoles> BlackHorn: do you have any problems with ubuntu?
[03:11] <mleeming> Ah, gotcha.
[03:11] <BlackHorn> the effect is on the windows side, but the cause appears to be due to installing ubuntu and let's face it, most people on the windows ones, probably won't know anything about ubuntu's installation
[03:11] <BlackHorn> Ubuntu boots fine.
[03:11] <yurikoles> so you have problem with windows
[03:12] <yurikoles> try to download regcleaner proffessional ultimate edition home
[03:12] <BlackHorn> whoa, thanks a lot. really helpful.
[03:12] <yurikoles> !windows |BlackHorn
[03:13] <daftykins> BlackHorn: if you allowed ubuntu to resize your Windows partition, run a chkdsk - after backing up your data.
[03:13] <BlackHorn> I didn't. It's on a different drive.
[03:13] <daftykins> but there's no reason that the installation would otherwise have affected your install
[03:13] <officialxian> I get a segfault every time I log in, I get segault hud-service at [hex addr] ip [hex addr] sp [hex addr2] error 15. Any clues?
[03:13] <BlackHorn> I thought not. I'll see what the windows guys have to say, but I came here initially due to it being the installation of ubuntu that did something
[03:14] <BlackHorn> and ubuntu guys are more likely to know about bootloaders too.
[03:14] <yurikoles> !grub |BlackHorn
[03:14] <BlackHorn> I have grub2.
[03:15] <BlackHorn> could booting from GRUB on a different drive cause the lag?
[03:15] <yurikoles> how many drives do you have in your laptop
[03:16] <yurikoles> just a couple of secs
[03:16] <BlackHorn> 3.
[03:16] <daftykins> BlackHorn: nope
[03:16] <yurikoles> you see it at startup, then it's all windows stuff
[03:16] <mleeming> Hi guys, I'm trying to install fglrx-installer as per the instructions on  BinaryDriverHowto/AMD, but apt-get can't seem to find the package.
[03:16] <BlackHorn> I have a drive for data, a drive for windows and a drive for ubuntu
[03:16] <BlackHorn> the system drives are ssds
[03:17] <yurikoles> !partiion |BlackHorn
[03:17] <BlackHorn> it's still faster than a HDD, It just slowed down after installing ubuntu
[03:17] <yurikoles> !partition |BlackHorn
[03:17] <BlackHorn> Uh, I don't need any help with partitioning.
[03:17] <BlackHorn> It's already all installed. So why would I need to partition?
[03:17] <yurikoles> I will one more time
[03:18] <yurikoles> how many drives do you have in your laptop?
[03:18] <BlackHorn> i said, 3.
[03:18] <BlackHorn> I have ubuntu installed on one, windows on another and another just for data.
[03:19] <yurikoles> lol
[03:19] <BlackHorn> what's so funny?
[03:19] <yurikoles> you don't know difference between drive and a partition?
[03:20] <BlackHorn> you asked how many drives I have.
[03:20] <BlackHorn> I told you how many drives I have and I also told you where each one is installed
[03:20] <BlackHorn> yes, there are extra partitions, such as efi and stuff like that.
[03:20] <yurikoles> it's not drives
[03:20] <yurikoles> it's partitions
[03:21] <officialxian> BlackHorn, are they separate *physical* drives?
[03:21] <BlackHorn> then why ask me how many drives I had?
[03:21] <BlackHorn> yes.
[03:21] <yurikoles> in a laptop?
[03:21] <BlackHorn> 2 of them are ssds, one is a hdd
[03:21] <BlackHorn> yep.
[03:21] <ModelEngine> anybody know where to go to learn about the semi-basics of understanding terminal?
[03:21] <BlackHorn> gaming laptop
[03:21] <yurikoles> ok
[03:21] <BlackHorn> and it's not even very bulky either.
[03:21] <yurikoles> sorry
[03:22] <ModelEngine> and understanding when to use sudo apt-get and when to use sudo apt-get add ppa ?
[03:22] <yurikoles> so how you suggest ubuntu is doing something wrong with your windows?
[03:22] <officialxian> lol get owned yurikoles
[03:22] <BlackHorn> I don't know. That's why I'm here.
[03:22] <BlackHorn> I saw that it slowed down after installing ubuntu, so I made an assumption
[03:23] <yurikoles> try to switch to direct booting windows bootloader
[03:23] <yurikoles> and avoid grub
[03:23] <yurikoles> or have you disabled fast boot prior to install?
[03:23] <BlackHorn> hmm. I'll take a try. Hopefully it'll have ubuntu listed. lol
[03:24] <yurikoles> no
[03:24] <BlackHorn> I disabled it in the OS, but it's got it listed in the bios.
[03:24] <yurikoles> so
[03:24] <yurikoles> you changed winodws settings
[03:24] <officialxian> im out since im just ignored here lmao
[03:24] <yurikoles> prior to instal
[03:25] <BlackHorn> yes, because that's what the tutorials said to do
[03:25] <BlackHorn> no, it was already like that.
[03:25] <BlackHorn> I just checked it was like that.
[03:25] <ModelEngine> HewloThere: pls stop
[03:25] <HewloThere> Stop what?
[03:25] <esalinas> hello
[03:25] <kilde> Can anyone help me with my unstable ethernet connection? It used to work fine until about 2 weeks ago. May have been an update.
[03:26] <yurikoles> what version do you run?
[03:26] <yurikoles> BlackHorn: try to boot directly to windows in UEFI
[03:27] <yurikoles> this will avoid any interference with linux
[03:27] <erste> Hi, I'm having a boot problem, details: http://pastebin.com/scZdenNH
[03:27] <yurikoles> kilde: did you tried other devices?
[03:28] <yurikoles> I mean: it's only this pc?
[03:28] <esalinas> I recently formated my partition from fedora to ubuntu, and I forgot to save some documents of my work. Someone knows how could I try to retrieve them?
[03:29] <daftykins> esalinas: testdisk might help
[03:29] <yurikoles> photorec
[03:29] <daftykins> which comes with photorec afaik
[03:29] <kilde> yurikoles: 14.04  Yes, other computers are fine. I am tethered to my phone now and it helps but it still cycles me off and on again
[03:30] <ModelEngine> !info ops
[03:30] <phunyguy> ModelEngine: what are you doing
[03:31] <phunyguy> !msgthebot
[03:31] <esalinas> daftykins, I ll try it, ty
[03:31] <ModelEngine> i am looking for info regarding how to contact you guys as well as others
[03:31] <ModelEngine> phunyguy: i treid to pm you it didn't work
[03:32] <erste> hi, anyone? http://pastebin.com/scZdenNH .. my computer shutted down, and my ubuntu partition didn't unmount properly, I can't boot into it now.. any ideas how I can solve it?
[03:32] <yurikoles> klide: get output of lscpi -v and upload to paste
[03:33] <daftykins> erste: can you make up a USB boot and come back from within the live session?
[03:33] <erste> I'm currently making an ubuntu 14.04 usb
[03:33] <erste> but not sure if it will work
[03:33] <daftykins> how come?
[03:34] <erste> I'm thinking of entering it live, and see if I can unmount through the Files Manager
[03:34] <erste> I mean. through the GUI ..
[03:34] <daftykins> yeah i'd have just said to mount via commands personally
[03:34] <daftykins> but i prefer the CLI touch ^_^
[03:34] <erste> what would be the command to unmount? list active partitions?
[03:35] <erste> just finished making the bootable usb
[03:35] <yurikoles> gdisk -l /dev/sda
[03:35] <erste> gdisk -l /dev/sda = for listing right?, and for unmount?
[03:35] <daftykins> sudo parted -l
[03:35] <yurikoles> mount /dev/sdN, where N is number of partition
[03:35] <daftykins> look at the parts, "sudo mount /dev/sda# /mnt"
[03:35] <daftykins> then sudo umount /mnt
[03:35] <yurikoles> not "unmount", but "mountt"
[03:36] <yurikoles> sorry, mount
[03:36] <erste> mount? you sure?
[03:36] <erste> I think it didn't unmount properly
[03:36] <yurikoles> why you need to unmount something in live system
[03:36] <erste> because it suddenly shutted down
[03:36] <erste> I think it's locked in like.. read-only state
[03:36] <daftykins> you can't unmount that which hasn't been mounted
[03:36] <daftykins> just boot the live session and come back ;)
[03:37] <erste> ok :P
[03:37] <daftykins> then we don't need to guess
[03:37] <erste> will note the commands first :P
[03:37] <daftykins> erste: just come back here via freenode webchat
[03:38] <kilde> yurikoles: lscpi -v returned "command not found"
[03:38] <erste> daftykins, ok.. going now :P
[03:41] <erste> test
[03:41] <yurikoles> klide, sorry, it's lspci -v
[03:41] <erste> I'm on live ubuntu now
[03:41] <daftykins> huzzah
[03:41] <daftykins> sudo apt-get install pastebinit

[03:43] <erste> my Ubuntu .. is on Samsung M3 Portable
[03:43] <daftykins> sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
[03:43] <blastop> I restarted my computer today and lock my unity dock and window decorations. What might be wrong?
[03:44] <erste> daftykins: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[03:44] <gfixler> what do I do if 14.04 won't let me log in tonight?
[03:44] <yurikoles> it has been corrupted
[03:44] <daftykins> erste: sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb1 /mnt
[03:44] <gfixler> it gets the login screen, takes my password, plays a thump, and kicks me out to the login
[03:44] <yurikoles> fsck /dev/sdb1
[03:45] <gfixler> I'm currently in as guest
[03:45] <erste> daftykins: just a second, will get a pastebin of the error
[03:45] <yurikoles> daftykins: ext4 must be autodetected
[03:45] <daftykins> yurikoles: yeah i see your point.
[03:45] <kilde> http://pastebin.com/CG2hpQvw
[03:45] <daftykins> gfixler: log in at a TTY then check your home dir for any files not owned by your user
[03:45] <erste> daftykins: error msg: http://pastebin.com/PLGm4EeC
[03:46] <daftykins> erste: dmesg | tail | pastebinit
[03:46] <erste> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11158959/
[03:47] <blastop> sorry, lost my unity dock and window decorations. Does that sound like a compiz issue?
[03:47] <erste> seems quite bad heh :P
[03:47] <daftykins> yeah you're gonna need to do as yurikoles suggests, though it's not without risk to your data - so if you have anything mission critical on there, this might not be a good idea
[03:47] <sveta> I thought compiz was dead for over a year
[03:48] <daftykins> it's used in unity.
[03:48] <erste> what he suggest .. this?  fsck /dev/sdb1
[03:48] <daftykins> erste: yep but with sudo
[03:48] <erste> ok will try
[03:51] <erste> daftykins: http://pastebin.com/BE3rHbPU
[03:51] <erste> don't really understand what it will do
[03:51] <yurikoles> ctrl+c
[03:51] <erste> cancel it?
[03:52] <yurikoles> rerun fsck -y /dev/sdb1
[03:52] <yurikoles> -y will provide positive answers
[03:52] <erste> rerunning.. will comeback with a pastebin
[03:53] <daftykins> well that one showed your main woe is over already
[03:53] <erste> main woe?
[03:53] <daftykins> main problem
[03:53] <Craigwell> anyone around with experience cloning ntfs partitions ?
[03:53] <daftykins> so just test mount later
[03:53] <erste> I see..
[03:53] <daftykins> Craigwell: clonezilla is amazing
[03:54] <Craigwell> i've been using it,
[03:54] <Craigwell> a few attempts now
[03:54] <daftykins> what's up then?
[03:54] <Craigwell> having issues with resizing file system
[03:54] <Craigwell> been using -r parameter,
[03:54] <erste> daftykins: yurikoles : this is the new result: http://pastebin.com/FjA1PSy1
[03:54] <daftykins> what's the overall goal, Craigwell ?
[03:55] <Craigwell> i have a 120gb drive with a linux swap, ext4, and two ntfs partitions, one of which is bootable (win7)
[03:55] <yurikoles> you will see when it finishes
[03:55] <Craigwell> trying to copy them to a larger 500gb wd black drive
[03:55] <hurdos> Hello
[03:55] <Craigwell> the ext4 copies and resizes no problem,
[03:55] <daftykins> Craigwell: can you live with only Windows being larger afterwards?
[03:55] <Craigwell> but the ntfs ones copy, but i cannot resize them
[03:56] <daftykins> Craigwell: just resize from inside Windows. simples!
[03:56] <yurikoles> ntfsresize?
[03:56] <Craigwell> i can't get the win7 partitioin to boot
[03:56] <yurikoles> you need to reinstall bootloader
[03:56] <Craigwell> tried grub restore
[03:56] <daftykins> Craigwell: you'll likely need to reinstall its' loader, then reinstall GRUB later
[03:56] <yurikoles> update-grub
[03:57] <Craigwell> i did update grub
[03:57] <Craigwell> it reestablishes the win7 entry,
[03:57] <vonsyd0w> what about using gparted to resize ntfs parts?
[03:57] <Craigwell> but when i try to select it it hangs
[03:57] <daftykins> vonsyd0w: eww
[03:57] <Craigwell> gparted hangs when trying to check / repair ntfs partition
[03:57] <Craigwell> and wont mount them
[03:57] <hurdos> How to install ffmpeg package?
[03:58] <Craigwell> it;s been bizarre
[03:58] <daftykins> Craigwell: here's a tip, run the windows installer and let it start - then boot clonezilla again and clone from partition to partition
[03:58] <daftykins> (i.e. you quit the installer before letting it finish copying)
[03:59] <SchrodingersScat> !info ffmpeg | hurdos: sudo apt-get install ffmpeg ?
[03:59] <reisio> hurdos: if it's not available for your version, install libav for the time being
[03:59] <kilde> yurikoles: http://pastebin.com/CG2hpQvw
[03:59] <Craigwell> dafty... not sure i'm game for that
[04:00] <Craigwell> don't quite understand
[04:00] <daftykins> oh :( it's easy
[04:00] <Craigwell> using win boot usb and aborting an install ?
[04:00] <daftykins> or just delete what you have, make NTFS partitions the size you want, then clone them
[04:00] <hurdos> reisio: I tried $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jon-severinsson/ffmpeg but it wrote «No JSON object could be decoded» :(
[04:01] <daftykins> yep
[04:01] <Craigwell> i did try making the partitions and doing partition to partition copy,
[04:01] <Craigwell> and also drive clone with auto resize
[04:01] <Craigwell> both had exact same result
[04:01] <daftykins> which Windows is it?
[04:01] <yurikoles> kiide, have you tried previous kernel?
[04:01] <Craigwell> i can mount the non boot ntfs, but its not resized
[04:01] <Craigwell> i cannot mount the win 7
[04:02] <daftykins> hrmm. can be quite fiddly what you're up to, and it sounds so messy having Windows after Linux
[04:02] <erste> woa.. the fsck command is running crazy now.. lots of numbers.. it has a lot of .. "Pass" btw, "Pass 1".. "Pass2.. 3.4..5.. now is spilling numbers in this format: (xxxxxx--xxxx) -
[04:02] <daftykins> don't you have the third little win7 boot partition?
[04:02] <Craigwell> the win 7 wont mount, mentions that it was hibernated (which is possible), but I cannot mount in -ro either from terminal
[04:03] <kilde> yurkoles: how can I change it?
[04:03] <daftykins> Craigwell: can you not boot the original again and properly shut it down?
[04:03] <Craigwell> dafty: no
[04:03] <Craigwell> daftykins: i will try that
[04:03] <Craigwell> it will be my last gasp before doing a fresh install
[04:03] <Craigwell> of win 7
[04:04] <Craigwell> will that complicate my cloning of the ext4 ?
[04:04] <yurikoles> kilde: just press any key at boot then you will see then ubuntu advanced options
[04:04] <daftykins> Craigwell: surely you've already done that and don't need to touch the Linux ones anymore?
[04:04] <yurikoles> then you will see previous kernels
[04:04] <Craigwell> sda1: swap, sda2: ext4, sda3: win7, sda4: common
[04:05] <Craigwell> daftykins: right, just install to the partition, leave ext4 alone and repair grub after . gotcha
[04:06] <Craigwell> i will try a proper shutdown on the original drive first, attempt clone once more before i give up and do a fresh install though. Thank you!
[04:07] <daftykins> np
[04:07] <erste> hey daftykins yurikoles ... looks like it finished .. and it seems that it solved
[04:08] <erste> will try to boot from it now
[04:08] <daftykins> mounts ok now?
[04:08] <erste> from this live usb yes
[04:08] <daftykins> yeah that'll work
[04:08] <daftykins> be sure to unmount ;)
[04:08] <erste> I'll see if I can boot
[04:08] <erste> oh yea.. :P
[04:08] <erste> brb then :)

[04:13] <erste> I will now check if I can boot windows 7 , lol.. sometimes I fix one and break the another.. lol
[04:14] <esalinas> SchrodingersScat, ty
[04:19] <David-A> esalinas: to ignore case (.PDF,.Pdf,.pDF) replace -name with -iname
[04:20] <David-A> esalinas: (maybe -iname is not posix standard, but this is ubuntu channel, so it is okay)
[04:20] <erste> well, everything works fine now :P, both windows and linux boot :P
[04:21] <erste> btw, is it normal for ubuntu's running on external hd to freeze completely from time to time?, like after few hours of using, I'm forced to make the REISUB thing
[04:21] <daftykins> erste: \o/
[04:21] <kilde> yurikoles: I only find the previous version. I remember now that I had to clean out the older versions because I was out of room in that file. Can I just download a previouse version?
[04:22] <daftykins> erste: dunno, i'd not run an OS from external personally
[04:22] <daftykins> i would think no
[04:22] <erste> weird right? .. I installed on an ext hd so that I can plug in any pc
[04:22] <gfixler2> so I can't log in to my account - I get a thump and kicked back out to the login
[04:23] <gfixler2> but I can log in as guest just fine, and to any WM (unity, i3, xmonad)
[04:23] <gfixler2> switching to the F1 shell, I could log in as me, so it wasn't my password or anything
[04:23] <gfixler2> my ~ files were all there
[04:23] <gfixler2> but switching back to F7, the guest shell (where I was chatting in here) was gone
[04:23] <gfixler2> is this expected?
[04:23] <excalibr> There's no way to back up individual files with dejavu backup, right?
[04:23] <mmp> quit
[04:23] <gfixler2> by logging in over on F1, did I kick out the guest on F7?
[04:23] <daftykins> gfixler2: but are they all owned by you, in ~ ?
[04:24] <gfixler2> daftykins: I didn't think to check
[04:24] <daftykins> gfixler2: no it'll still be there
[04:24] <daftykins> gfixler2: log in and run "ls -al ~/"
[04:24] <gfixler2> guest should still be logged in?
[04:24] <daftykins> yep
[04:24] <gfixler2> ok, must have been a glitch or something
[04:24]  * gfixler2 goes to try it out
[04:25] <gfixler2> yay, you're still here
[04:25] <gfixler2> and yes, I owned all the files in there
[04:25] <gfixler2> I'm leaning toward it being some dotfile settings
[04:26] <daftykins> alright this is a shotgun approach but worth a go
[04:26] <gfixler2> going to unsymlink all my file s that link to .dotfiles/*
[04:26] <daftykins> try "mv ~/.config ~/.configold"
[04:26] <gfixler2> daftykins: what kinds of things are in there?
[04:26] <daftykins> then try logging in again graphically
[04:26] <gfixler2> unity/ubuntu stuff?
[04:26] <daftykins> yep and a lot of software configs
[04:26] <daftykins> but it doesn't matter for a test
[04:26] <gfixler2> is it possible to switch user and switch back to this guest account?
[04:27] <daftykins> pass
[04:27] <daftykins> i don't know if you can have both in concurrently
[04:27] <gfixler2> I'll probably lose this shell and have to go through all the weechat loggin in again
[04:27] <gfixler2> so before I go, here's the plan:
[04:27] <gfixler2> move ~/.config and reboot
[04:28] <gfixler2> if that doesn't work, move it back and kill my .dotfiles symlinks in ~
[04:28] <gfixler2> and reboot
[04:28] <daftykins> er, no need for a full reboot
[04:28] <gfixler2> just log out?
[04:28] <daftykins> just log out of guest and log in :>
[04:28] <gfixler2> ah, k
[04:28] <gfixler2> 8 years of linux, and I still don't know what I'm doing
[04:28]  * gfixler2 goes to try to config and dotfiles things
[04:28] <gfixler2> thanks!
[04:34] <VFDPrim> evening all
[04:35] <gfixler> daftykins: it was my .bashrc, apparently
[04:35] <VFDPrim> any one know how to get a thumb drive to show up that wont automaticly
[04:35] <gfixler> I'm back in
[04:35] <gfixler> had to reboot when the system hung, though - I'm hoping things aren't unstable
[04:36] <daftykins> gfixler: weird!
[04:36] <daftykins> gfixler: what flagged it?
[04:36] <gfixler> I tried moving .config, but it didn't fix it
[04:37] <gfixler> so I looked at the symlinks in ~ in the F1 shell
[04:37] <gfixler> figured .bashrc might be the culprit
[04:37] <gfixler> moved it, tried to switch user, but it went all pink and weird and then to a shell
[04:37] <gfixler> where it spit out a long stream of errors I didn't understand
[04:37] <gfixler> then it froze
[04:37] <gfixler> so I rebooted
[04:37] <gfixler> and I'm in
[04:48] <oshell> hello..
[04:49] <daftykins> hi
[04:49] <VFDPrim> hello
[04:50] <oshell> where?
[04:50] <andrewjs18> anyone know of a good tutorial to stop people from hitting my postfix server to spam it?
[04:50] <andrewjs18> daftykins, ^
[04:50] <andrewjs18> =)
[04:51] <daftykins> no idea sorry, never done in-house mail
[04:52] <andrewjs18> kept seeing a few IPs trying to connect to my server when I was scanning the mail log
[04:53] <andrewjs18> probably best to reject their traffic if it matches some sort of file in postfix
[04:54] <daftykins> andrewjs18: surely they just failed outgoing auth, no?
[04:57] <andrewjs18> I think it's just spammers trying to connect to the server
[04:57] <andrewjs18> daftykins, ^
[04:57] <andrewjs18> probably trying to prob for email addresses
[04:57] <andrewjs18> probe*
[05:05] <coffeecup> How do you compile vim from source with lua I keep getting -lua even though I've installed it and
[05:05] <coffeecup> still nothing
[05:31] <maarhart> I want my usb tv receiver to automatically wake up from suspend. But it does not, I have to unplug it and plug it again. Please help me
[05:36] <aerth> how do i find out what touch screen i have? my touch screen works in ubuntu
[05:37] <aerth> "it works" but i want to see which drivers or firmware is being loaded
[05:38] <daftykins> aerth: read through dmesg or boot.log maybe?
[05:40] <aerth> i noticed in the activated proprietary drivers section it has an "unknown driver" for microcode processor . could that be it?
[05:40] <aerth> in the area where broadcom 43x etc show up (not in my case)
[05:41] <daftykins> pass
[05:43] <aerth> thanks
[06:05] <phix> so any ideas?
[06:06] <phix> Re ----> ok vino-server is using 100% CPU.  Is there a fix for this yet?  I have seen on forums that this issue has existed since 2006.
[06:11] <helloubuntu> hello, I'm experiencing very slow internet through wifi, I'm getting fair speed for few minutes after restarting network manager, what will be the possible culprit?
[06:16] <maarhart> any help with my question? I am trying this http://paste.debian.net/178025 but I get an error
[06:17] <daftykins> maarhart: either blacklist it or boot with the device removed to remove the module
[06:20] <maarhart> daftykins: trying rmmod -f
[06:20] <daftykins> *crash*
[06:20] <daftykins> :D
[06:20] <daftykins> (no really it can happen)
[06:21] <maarhart> not yet
[06:21] <maarhart> daftykins: http://paste.debian.net/178028
[06:22] <daftykins> isn't that the same 0o
[06:37] <tapout> i formatted my jumpdrive, unetbootin, tried the 15.04 iso.  Each time i reboot, "Operating system not found" on the flash drive.  I'm specifically trying to boot from that flash drive
[06:42] <Azumineko> I had a question about an issue I am having and wondered if anyone could answer it?  Every time I try to install Ubuntu Server 14.04 when it tries to mount the installation media it fails and will go no further is there anything I can do to fix this?  I have tried both CD and USB keys.
[06:54] <vlt> Azumineko: Have you checked the md5sum of your ISO file?
[06:54] <Azumineko> let me check it real fast
[06:56] <Azumineko> Checksum is valid
[07:00] <tapout> i'm using 15.04 iso and it's not working for me, so could be a problem with it
[07:04] <Azumineko> hm
[07:30] <localhost_FlameG> hey
[07:31] <HewloThere> Hey, my SSH lines start with just "$", but they use to start with "user@hostname:/location#
[07:32] <HewloThere> e.g. http://i.imgur.com/mh8VpR9.png vs http://i.imgur.com/8KhQfi2.png
[07:35] <Fjorgynn> morning
[07:36] <Fjorgynn> HewloThere: one second
[07:36] <HewloThere> =)
[07:37] <Fjorgynn> # is common name for the root prompt which means that you're using the shell as a root user
[07:38] <Fjorgynn> in Ubuntu you can also use root commands with sudo "sudo apt-get update" updates the packages list
[07:39] <Fjorgynn> root@ds1051:~# means that you are using the shell as root@computername:~#
[07:39] <Fjorgynn> > /home means that you're in the /home directory
[07:40] <Fjorgynn> you can always use pwd to check which directory you are in
[07:41] <Fjorgynn> HewloThere: why where you using your computer as root
[07:41] <HewloThere> Fjorgynn, I just installed it. I'm setting stuff up.
[07:41] <HewloThere> What I mean is, in SSH, it's showing a $, not the other stuff.
[07:42] <Fjorgynn> HewloThere: you are using ubuntu right?
[07:42] <HewloThere> Of course
[07:42] <HewloThere> 14.04.2 LTS
[07:43] <Fjorgynn> by default the root user is not active
[07:43] <HewloThere> ?
[07:43] <Fjorgynn> and why are you creating folders in /home
[07:44] <HewloThere> What?
[07:44] <Fjorgynn> http://i.imgur.com/8KhQfi2.png
[07:44] <Fjorgynn> cd /home
[07:44] <Fjorgynn> mkdir hewlothers
[07:45] <HewloThere> Because I have my hewlothere user and the homes aren't being made.
[07:45] <Ben64> thats not how to do that
[07:45] <Fjorgynn> Ben64: :D
[07:45] <HewloThere> I used useradd. Should I use adduser?
[07:45] <Ben64> yes
[07:45] <Fjorgynn> yes
[07:45] <arlen> yes
[07:45] <Fjorgynn> useradd is good if you know what you're doing
[07:45] <Fjorgynn> If you don't know what you are doing you should not be root.
[07:46] <Fjorgynn> $ sudo adduser
[07:46] <Fjorgynn> put sudo in front of all "root commands"
[07:47] <Fjorgynn> IF YOU KNOW what you are doing you can obtain a root prompt doing $ sudo -i
[07:47] <Fjorgynn> but you can harm your system badly
[07:52] <GlitchedCode> hello :)
[07:53] <GlitchedCode> i was wondering, are there any crucial differences between xserver-xorg-lts-utopic and xserver-xorg?
[07:53] <GlitchedCode> i need the latter
[07:54] <GlitchedCode> and the former is giving me a lot of problems with dependencies
[07:54] <Fjorgynn> I don't even have xserver-xorg-lts-utopic
[07:54] <GlitchedCode> ubuntu version?
[07:54] <GlitchedCode> i'm using 14.04.2
[07:55] <GlitchedCode> oh and i'm also a xubuntu user
[07:55] <Guest28181> zal
[07:56] <GlitchedCode> brb
[07:58] <sabgenton> I have updated the LTS usb stick I was using to 15.04
[07:59] <sabgenton> it seems to be  without a grub booter
[08:00] <sabgenton> is this a change or something a miss with my installment on the usb?
[08:05] <sabgenton> anyone round?
[08:09] <Daghdha> I has question regarding apps that crash. Transmission crashed earlier, and i got a 'do you want to restrt' option.
[08:09] <Daghdha> It now has crashed again, but now i fon't get that option
[08:09] <Daghdha> how come?
[08:09] <Daghdha> infact OS doesn't seem to know it crashed
[08:11]  * Daghdha restarts server to make daemon start up again
[08:14] <tapout> Azumineko, turns out my usb key was damaged.  I used Rufus that kept telling me it failed.  New USB key, rufus worked flawlessly
[08:25] <zamba> i want to run 'script' for every new console i open.. is that possible to do automatically?
[08:28] <maarhart> I want to run a script during wake up from suspend
[08:28] <maarhart> these are the contents: http://paste.debian.net/178084
[08:29] <maarhart> the script is /etc/pm/sleep.d/myscript.sh
[08:29] <maarhart> but it does not load
[08:31] <jzc_> hi
[08:34] <CopperGold> my computer died would anyone like to donate to my fund to get a new one
[08:36] <cfhowlett> CopperGold, no and wrong channel.  perhaps gofundme or kickstarter would be better for you
[08:38] <jzc_> this is my first time use irc (in hexchat) why it display so many information about who join or quit .
[08:39] <cfhowlett> jzc_, you can turn that off in settings
[08:39] <jzc_> i`m try to find but faile
[08:39] <cfhowlett> jzc_, right click on the #ubuntu channel trb
[08:39] <cfhowlett> *tab*
[08:40] <sabgenton> can anyone tell me if vivid is without grub in the install cd (opposed to trusty)?
[08:40] <jzc_> where is that setting??
[08:40] <cfhowlett> sabgenton, yes grub is included
[08:42] <sabgenton> cfhowlett:  ok I  used  usb-creator-gtk to wipe an image the vivid iso to usb from a trusty live session
[08:42] <sabgenton> cfhowlett: maybe the trusty verssion of usb-creator-gtk was old an out of date and didn't set it up right
[08:42] <cfhowlett> sabgenton, didn't set up right.  grub is included by default on all *buntu CD's
[08:43] <sabgenton> cfhowlett: the live usb  gives me the old boot:  style prompt only
[08:43] <sabgenton> i can type help and get the menu with F1 F2 F3 options
[08:44] <sabgenton> but if I boot ubuntu theres not grub
[08:44] <cfhowlett> sabgenton, I don't know how to image a live session ... sorry
[08:44] <jzc_> *tab*
[08:44] <sabgenton> oh wait maybe the grub bits so fast im not geting it,  do you have to press shift esc now?
[08:45] <sabgenton> I just press esc on trusty to get some options
[08:45] <maarhart> help please, my script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/ does not load on wakeup
[08:45] <sabgenton> hmm maybe Im not thinking grub
[08:46] <cfhowlett> sabgenton, 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] <sabgenton> I'm meaing the options in trusty where you press esc  and you get like  install or just run live cd
[08:47] <maarhart> the script looks like this: http://paste.debian.net/178105
[08:47] <sabgenton> I used to use it to type toram  so I could remove the usb stick
[08:47] <maarhart> it is myscript.sh
[08:47] <sabgenton> or  text  so I got console only
[08:47] <cfhowlett> sabgenton, over my head.  can't help.  sorry.  ask again in channel.
[08:47] <maarhart> it has these permissions: -rwxr-xr-x   1 root           root          348 2015-05-16 11:34 myscript.sh
[08:48] <sabgenton> ok everyone I'm asking again :P
[08:48] <sabgenton> :)
[08:50] <maarhart> help please

[09:33] <Nokaji> I have a music CD in /dev/sr0 - I can't play it or even see it in FILES (Nautilus), the Drive details however show up in DISKS (Utility). Not sure if this is a 'mount' problem. Any ideas?
[09:33] <tapout> when installing JDK, should I install java8-jdk or .. openjdk-8-jdk.  they both get to the same place, but I wonder why java8-jdk exists
[09:55] <Nokaji> okay, i can also find the dvd drive with 'wodim dev=/dev/sr0 -checkdrive' - ut am unable plus unsure how to open, then edit wodim.conf with file permissions
[09:55] <Nokaji> but*
[10:12] <Nokaji> apparently it is some sort of bug, I'm trying to wade through some fixes
[10:17] <the_tricky> hello there, guys
[10:17] <ubuntu-studio> hi
[10:17] <the_tricky> anyone to help me open a corrupted .jpg file?
[10:17] <ikonia> it's corrupted....
[10:17] <ikonia> hence can't open
[10:17] <the_tricky> is there a way to recover it?
[10:18] <ikonia> how would you recover it ?
[10:18] <bekks> Restore it from your backup.
[10:18] <the_tricky> because a friend of mine gave me a USB with backups
[10:18] <the_tricky> there were some .jpg
[10:18] <the_tricky> and now I can't open them
[10:19] <the_tricky> but he says they were OK
[10:19] <ikonia> the_tricky: the command "file" against one of them
[10:21] <the_tricky> ikonia: img_0500.jpg: data
[10:21] <ikonia> the_tricky: then it's not a jpeg
[10:22] <ikonia> or it's a damaged file so seen as data
[10:22] <the_tricky> ikonia: well, thanks for your help
[10:22] <the_tricky> ikonia: no way to restore, I suppose?
[10:22] <ikonia> no, as you've not got a back
[10:22] <ikonia> backup
[10:23] <Free_Islam> niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers niggers nigger
[10:23] <the_tricky> OK, couldn't you advise me a script to mass remove those corrupted .jpg?
[10:23] <ikonia> remove ?
[10:23] <ikonia> as in delete
[10:24] <the_tricky> yes
[10:24] <ikonia> just open in a file manager and group select them and delete them
[10:24] <kanhiay> i am using ubuntu 14.04 and is there any way to restrict background data usage
[10:24] <the_tricky> that's not the way, probably
[10:24] <ikonia> the_tricky: why is that not theh way ?
[10:24] <ikonia> the
[10:24] <kanhiay> i am just using pidgin right now and only on IRC ubuntu channel
[10:25] <the_tricky> because, for example, img_0500.jpg is corrupted and img_0501.jpg is OK
[10:25] <kanhiay> but my data usage is high, i am on mobile internet and i have disabled automatic updates.
[10:25] <the_tricky> and there are several hundreds of them
[10:25] <bekks> the_tricky: Then remove the corrupted one and keep the non-corrupted one.
[10:25] <ikonia> the_tricky: then how can you expect to script whats good/bad if you don't know which ones are good/bad
[10:26] <ikonia> the_tricky: you could script running file against each one and if it shows up as data rather than jpeg, rm it
[10:26] <the_tricky> ikonia: yep, that's the thing I am talking about
[10:26] <ikonia> ok, so do that
[10:26] <ikonia> just eval the output of file
[10:27] <the_tricky> so god damn suck at bash scripting
[10:27] <the_tricky> what do you mean by "eval"?
[10:27] <ikonia> eval = evaluate

[10:47] <pratik>  may i get link to chatting room to chat with my friends?
[10:47] <dear> hi
[10:48] <dear> i want to secure my ubuntu with firewall and want to remove everything from it which contact google, facebook or any other network automatically
[10:49] <bekks> dear: Then pull the cable, basically ;) Ubuntu ships with ufw, as a firewall solution.
[10:49] <pratik>  may i get link to chatting room to chat with my friends?  Answer me pls
[10:49] <MonkeyDust> dear  ghostery plugin prevents being tracked by such sites
[10:50] <dear> bekks i am new to linux, and want to learn it, i have done it on my android, removing everything of google, facebook and samsung related, and then using firewall to block all incoming and outgong traffic with exceptions, is that possible with linux?
[10:50] <bekks> dear: Sure.
[10:51] <sikio> MonkeyDust: I hear ghostery no longer helps against tracking
[10:51] <sikio> they sold out or something
[10:51] <dprc> ghost never did
[10:52] <pratik>  may i get link to chatting room to chat with my friends?  Answer me pls
[10:52] <pratik>  may i get link to chatting room to chat with my friends?  Answer me pls
[10:52] <ikonia> pratik: sorry no
[10:52] <ikonia> pratik: try #freenode for help on how to use IRC
[10:52] <dear> bekks: MonkeyDust: i was looking for a guide on search engines but couldn't find one that can relate to my need
[10:52] <MonkeyDust> sikio  sad to hear, i've used it for some time
[10:52] <pratik> no i want room to chat with cool buddies. I forgot its nam
[10:52] <pratik> e
[10:52] <paulus68> Hi I get this error  file '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod not found grub rescue, I followed this guide
[10:53] <bekks> sikio: daftykins: I am still successfully using ghostery.
[10:53] <dear> i want an app that can track all the apps for their internet connections, it can log which app making connection to which ip, so i can allow or deny accordingly
[10:53] <bekks> dear: So log all your traffic, using ufw, and configure allow/deny rules accordingly.
[10:53] <ikonia> pratik: #freenode can teach you how to search channels
[10:53] <bekks> dear: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW
[10:54] <dprc> or use one of the proxy pkgs in repo

[10:54] <pratik> Can i run Ruby on rails on Ubantu ?
[10:55] <ikonia> pratik: ruby on rails is available on ubuntu
[10:55] <pratik> for free ?
[10:55] <bekks> pratik: Yes.
[10:55] <ikonia> pratik: yes, it's opensource software
[10:55] <pratik> thanks , is it better than PHP  ?
[10:55] <ikonia> thats your opinion to make
[10:55] <pratik> php is best
[10:56] <ikonia> then use php
[10:56] <pratik> ROR is also cool
[10:56] <ikonia> pratik: you're in a channel for ubuntu support
[10:56] <ikonia> please try to stick to that topic
[10:56] <dprc> pratik: theyre both awful but rails have a more sane syntax

[10:57] <dear> bekks: is ther a gui for that ufw?
[10:57] <paulus68> reinstalled 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 update
[10:57] <dprc> dear: gufw
[10:58] <wesley9946> hi, my laptop (Dell Inspiron 9400) doesn't output any DVI signal to my monitor when ubuntu is running, GPU is a Intel 945GM
[10:58] <wesley9946> DVI cable type is DVI-D Single Link
[10:58] <pratik> @dprc , you are awful !!!! If you are smart you should have developed your own programming language!
[10:58] <dprc> pratik: troll harder
[10:58] <dear> good, is ufw also block per app basics?
[10:59] <paulus68> ikonia: do you have a suggestion for me?
[10:59] <ikonia> paulus68: in regard to what ?
[11:00] <dprc> dear: no, it will block only ports
[11:00] <paulus68> ikonia: boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod not found
[11:00] <pratik> sory
[11:00] <wesley9946> bump
[11:00] <paulus68> ikonia: this after a kernel update
[11:00] <dear> only ports? or ip and port?
[11:00] <dprc> it can filter both
[11:00] <ikonia> paulus68: it would be odd for a kernel update to change the grub install
[11:00] <shadow193> Hi all
[11:01] <Loshki> paulus68: can you verify this by booting the previous kernel?
[11:01] <dprc> ufw is just an easy front end to iptables/netfilter
[11:01] <ikonia> it's not a kernel file
[11:01] <ikonia> it's part of the grub install
[11:01] <paulus68> ikonia: followed this guide askubuntu.com/questions/266429/error-file-grub-i386-normal-mod-not-found and still have the same problem
[11:01] <bekks> dear: ip and port.
[11:01] <paulus68> Loshki: not possible it directly stops at this message before I can choose anything
[11:01] <dear> it 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, @dprc
[11:02] <paulus68> Loshki: even did a re-install same problem
[11:02] <dprc> you can blackhole those using the hosts files
[11:02] <bekks> dear: So do it :)
[11:02] <shadow193> I 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] <dear> bekks: dprc: can you please give me an example line to block a CIDR format ip range ?
[11:03] <bekks> dear: you should read up on the link given, first.
[11:03] <dprc> dear: there are proxies that are tailor made for this kind of filtering (blocking of facebook, advertisements etc) etc in the repos; just grep around
[11:03] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[11:04] <paulus68> ikonia: how can it be possible to get this message on a fresh install
[11:05] <ikonia> if it's not installed correctly
[11:07] <shadow193> I have a problem, I cant install amd additional driver, in additional driver application, pointer on list jumps back to xorg driver.

[11:08] <paulus68> ikonia: I choose use something else in the installer there I selected my first sdd as /home my second sdd with a /boot /root partition and let the installer do it's thing
[11:08] <ikonia> paulus68: ok ?
[11:08] <paulus68> ikonia: after that same message appear
[11:09] <ikonia> look at where it's trying to look to expect that file
[11:09] <MStar_> hello
[11:09] <paulus68> ikonia: that's why I created after the first attempt a seperate boot partition  and tried again same result
[11:10] <MStar_> somebody here

[11:19] <jcb123> Hi, 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?
[11:20] <jcb123> I can't seem to find anything in the Ubuntu store, and google gives me a bunch of things that I don't understand.
[11:21] <jcb123> When I search "Xinput" in the ubuntu store it says its already installed, but I can't find the button for it in the menu
[11:22] <ikonia> it's not a button launched app
[11:22] <jcb123> Then how do you get to it?
[11:22] <ikonia> you need to run it from the command line
[11:22] <ikonia> thats how it takes arguments
[11:22] <jcb123> Okay, I'm not sure how to do any of that. I was just looking for something with a menu
[11:24] <jcb123> Like, 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] <madebymarkca> what are you trying to figure out jcb?
[11:24] <dprc> dear: i think you have to do a hyphen or something for gufw instead of simple "/24"
[11:25] <dprc> is a little finicky
[11:25] <jcb123> How 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)
[11:26] <dear> dprc: 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] <jcb123> Like, 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.
[11:27] <jcb123> But, all I really need for now is backward button to middle mouse.
[11:28] <jcb123> I 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] <Zta> After 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] <madebymarkca> I have never used auto hot key, just looking at what it does
[11:28] <Zta> + prior to rewriting the image to the USB stick.
[11:29] <dear> dprc: 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 not
[11:29] <jcb123> It 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] <bekks> dear: One of the proxy server solutions in the ubuntu repos.
[11:29] <jcb123> I guess its a "scripting language"
[11:29] <dear> dprc: as it is possible in android with afwall+, linux should have more options then android
[11:29] <madebymarkca> you can remap keys, but I haven't remapped mouse btns, just trackpad
[11:30] <madebymarkca> shouldn't be very hard though
[11:30] <jcb123> But, 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.
[11:31] <bekks> jcb123: It is possible, I am using it without scrolling :)
[11:31] <madebymarkca> I usually do it through the command line, but you could try btnx
[11:31] <madebymarkca> https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/lucid/btnx-config/
[11:31] <jcb123> Different strokes for different fokes I guess :3
[11:31] <paulus68> ikonia: is there a way to remove the /boot dir using a live session
[11:32] <dprc> dear: there are things like Privoxy etc which ease the filtering somewhat (instead of managing tonnes of filters by hand)
[11:32] <dear> bekks: 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] <jcb123> When I click on that I get "There isn’t a software package called “btnx-config” in your current software sources."
[11:32] <paulus68> ikonia: if I use my terminal it sais it's removed and when I check in the explorer its still there?
[11:32] <madebymarkca> http://www.ghacks.net/2011/06/28/how-to-customize-extra-mouse-buttons-in-linux/
[11:33] <dear> i just came from windows,
[11:33] <madebymarkca> but command line best way :) hah
[11:33] <dprc> dear: to limit by binary (app), it may be possible to do this with AppArmor
[11:33] <dprc> I know you can do it with SELinux for sure but an not 100% about AppArmor
[11:33] <bekks> dear: 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/Squid
[11:33] <jcb123> Is 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 playforms
[11:34] <dprc> bekks: i already recommend Privoxy to them
[11:34] <jcb123> So... btnx says its not in the software center >.<
[11:35] <bekks> dprc: Yeah, thats why I gave hima link to read up on that ;)
[11:35] <madebymarkca> you just need to find a ppa, what version of linux are you on
[11:35] <dprc> squid gets a lil complicated sometimes...
[11:35] <jcb123> ppa? and the newest one I think? I just downloaded it yesterday
[11:35] <dear> thanks @bekks & @dprc: i will have a look and study them, and then i will come back if i had more questions :)
[11:35] <madebymarkca> hah :)
[11:35] <madebymarkca> k
[11:36] <jcb123> 14.04.2 - I checked the ubuntu website
[11:36] <dear> btw i'm on ubuntu 15.04
[11:37] <dear> hey i also have some question on full disk encryption if you can help on that? bekks: dprc: ?
[11:38] <bekks> dear: Ask the question first...
[11:38] <zan> #skype
[11:39] <madebymarkca> http://awesomelinux.blogspot.ca/2012/08/btnx-for-ubuntu-1204-precise.html
[11:39] <madebymarkca> can try this
[11:39] <jcb123> dear, This might actually be something I can help with too! The main reason I abandoned windows was because Truecrypt went and swan dived into the sun.
[11:39] <madebymarkca> like i said, never used that program
[11:39] <madebymarkca> usually do remapping from the terminal
[11:39] <leni1> Hey guys. My sister wants to know of a way to install/use WhatsApp on Ubuntu 14.04. Any suggestions on what to do?
[11:39] <bekks> leni1: "No."
[11:39] <dprc> jcb123: you can still use TC; nothing (seriously) wrong with it at all
[11:39] <madebymarkca> http://wiki.mbirth.de/know-how/software/linux/remapping-mouse-buttons.html
[11:39] <madebymarkca> better tut
[11:40] <dear> bekks: i currently have installed ubuntu 15.04 with full disk encryption, in setup i selected erase disk and encrypted lvm, that is very easy, but that way i can't create partitions of my likings, like i want a different partition for home, i studied a guide for manual partitioning with encrypted lvm, but that did not work,
[11:40] <leni1> bekks: Oh. Thanks
[11:40] <dear> i want manual partitioning with encrypted lvm
[11:40] <dear> i followed this guide http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2014/01/16/manual-full-disk-encryption-setup-guide-for-ubuntu-13-10-linux-mint-16/
[11:40] <bekks> dear: I never messed with that, sorry :)
[11:41] <dprc> jcb123: http://blog.cryptographyengineering.com/2015/04/truecrypt-report.html
[11:41] <jcb123> dprc, 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] <bekks> leni1: All you could do is using it from a webbrowser: https://web.whatsapp.com/
[11:42] <dear> jcb123: i abandoned windows because of security and privacy issues, i hope i can deal with them in linux :)
[11:42] <jcb123> madebymarkca, Even though its for 12.04, will it still work on this version?
[11:42] <dprc> it is perfectly safe. better shape than openssl was a a little while back (this time not Debian's fault!) ;)
[11:42] <madebymarkca> should be fine :)
[11:43] <madebymarkca> if it doesn't you can remove it in the software center
[11:43] <madebymarkca> under installed software
[11:43] <jcb123> dprc, 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] <dear> jcb123: but i find some facebook and google stuff in my ubuntu, which is not good
[11:43] <jcb123> dprc, That sounds crazy, but like I said, tinfoil hat on nice and tight.
[11:43] <madebymarkca> you should learn to use apt jcb :)
[11:43] <dprc> jcb123: they did a complete review of the code-base, line-by-line: http://blog.cryptographyengineering.com/2015/04/truecrypt-report.html
[11:44] <jcb123> madebymarkca, apt?
[11:44] <madebymarkca> going to end up in the command line lots if you start using linux more
[11:45] <madebymarkca> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto
[11:45] <jcb123> madebymarkca, Hmm. Well, since btnx sounds like the developer decided to abandon ship like it was the hindenburg over water - I think I'm going to give Xinput a solid run. I have a few hours today - it is saturday after all.
[11:46] <dear> i'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 purposes
[11:46] <bekks> dear: "i found facebook and google stuff..." - what does that mean, in particular?
[11:46] <madebymarkca> ok, up to you
[11:46] <madebymarkca> it's just a wrapper for xinput probably
[11:46] <madebymarkca> so wouldn't be afraid to try it
[11:46] <jcb123> Hmm, alright. Lets see what happens :3
[11:46] <madebymarkca> all most of the gui for linux does is run commands in the background
[11:47] <bekks> MagePsycho: Which is not true.
[11:47] <jcb123> madebymarkca,  Heh, I kinda like that. Feels more... transparent.
[11:47] <madebymarkca> :)
[11:47] <dear> bekks: 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 all
[11:47] <madebymarkca> http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/ubuntu-ppa-technology-explained/
[11:47] <bekks> dear: That doesnt answer my question.
[11:48] <madebymarkca> that's how many packages are distributed for ubuntu, some come in deb like that one though
[11:48] <madebymarkca> other formats too :)
[11:48] <jcb123> dear, Settings > Privacy > Search> Off.
[11:48] <madebymarkca> but software center is just apt-get
[11:49] <jcb123> jcb123,  That gets rid of the amazon and online stuff and keyboard tracking.
[11:49] <jcb123> madebymarkca, You've mentioned apt twice now... what it is?
[11:49] <dear> bekks: 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 it
[11:49] <XenuLives> When can I download Ubuntu Masturbating Monkey?
[11:49] <bekks> dear: So, why are you concerned that there are packagaes containing said words in their description, showing up when searchibng for them?
[11:50] <dprc> no one tell them that google and facebook contribute to the code base... ;)
[11:50] <bekks> dear: sshhhh... :P
[11:51] <madebymarkca> so 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] <dear> is that true?
[11:51] <dprc> dear: of course. so does microsoft, and the NSA
[11:51] <dear> does google and facebook contribute in ubuntu's code base? @bekks @dprc ???
[11:52] <jcb123> So, when I try to install btnx via command line, it says I have unmet dependencies
[11:52] <jcb123> and when I try to install those dependencies, they have more dependencies...
[11:53] <jcb123> Google told me apt-get apparently solves this... but... ah... yeah I know nothing.
[11:53] <madebymarkca> hah, you shouldn't have to do it from command line
[11:53] <madebymarkca> that website had deb
[11:53] <dear> dprc: bekks: if that is true then there is no use of ubuntu for me, i am looking for a linux which is safe and secure to use with confidence,
[11:53] <madebymarkca> just dl the deb
[11:53] <madebymarkca> and dbl click
[11:53] <jcb123> AH! Thank you!\
[11:53] <jcb123> Is a deb like a setup-exe (not a program exe)
[11:54] <dprc> dear: there are thousands of organizations that contribute code. it is all open source. that is how linux and this ecosystem works
[11:54] <sabgenton> whats faster to set up flush box or openbox?
[11:54] <bekks> dear: Yes.
[11:54] <sabgenton> yes dear hehe
[11:54] <bekks> dear: Google contributes to the Linux kernel development too, so you better not use Linux at all then
[11:55] <bekks> dear: Although your paranoia is pretty pointless. </2cent>
[11:55] <madebymarkca> sort of like that jcb
[11:55] <dprc> they also pay developers and sponsor students to work on the pkgs within it too: https://developers.google.com/open-source/soc/
[11:56] <jcb123> As 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.
[11:57] <dprc> surveillance isn't marketing
[11:58] <Jazzy_J> sabgenton, I prefer blackbox, but openbox is equally good.
[11:58] <madebymarkca> lel
[11:59] <sabgenton> Jazzy_J:   just want to instal  openbox or flush box quick and dirty
[11:59] <dear> bekks: 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] <jcb123> dprc, 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] <sabgenton> Jazzy_J: is open box easyer than flushbox?
[11:59] <Jazzy_J> apt-get install openbox  --- done.
[11:59] <madebymarkca> no one answer my question :(
[12:00] <dprc> dear: Ubuntu is the number one Linux platform on servers powering some of the largest organizations in the planet. No need to be overly paranoid
[12:01] <sabgenton> Jazzy_J: like I don't care if open box is better than flush box if flush box is easyer  in the short term
[12:01] <MonkeyDust> madebymarkca  as soon as someone has the answer, they will help you
[12:01] <madebymarkca> :( fine
[12:02] <MonkeyDust> madebymarkca  repeat your question every 10 minutes or so, until someone enters who can help
[12:02] <sabgenton> Jazzy_J: Im not saying I wouldn't use openbox latter for a more main system
[12:02] <madebymarkca> pretty 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-password
[12:02] <dprc> dear: The Unity Lens/Scopes kerfuffle is something you may want to look into, however.
[12:02] <sabgenton> Jazzy_J: or  is openbox easyer for the quick and dirty short term aswell
[12:03] <sabgenton> Jazzy_J: opion?
[12:03] <sabgenton> :)
[12:03] <Jazzy_J> sabgenton, 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] <dear> dprc: 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 people
[12:04] <Jazzy_J> sabgenton, this is assuming that you have a working x server.
[12:04] <sabgenton> Jazzy_J: yeah it will be beside unity
[12:04] <sabgenton> for now
[12:04] <Jazzy_J> I do prefer openbox, but YMMV.
[12:05] <sabgenton> Jazzy_J: I was lean toward open box any way but if flush box is not any faster to set up  open box it is
[12:05] <sabgenton> :)
[12:05] <jcb123> So, 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] <jcb123> Id 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.
[12:06] <dear> dprc: 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 sincerely
[12:07] <jcb123> Nevermind. Looking through settings, ubuntu's default is like, pretty much 0%. So I can't make the mouse super precise.
[12:08] <dear> btw is ubuntu's firewall able to block kernel?
[12:10] <sabgenton> jcb123: in google we trust?
[12:10] <sabgenton> :P
[12:10] <dprc> dear: 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)
[12:11] <BubbaGrace> what determines when an app is updated in the official repo?
[12:12] <BubbaGrace> for instance why is a 5 year old version of avidemux still the most recent
[12:12] <dprc> it is not the most _recent_ but it is the one currently _supported_
[12:13] <BubbaGrace> im aware its not the most recent. I meant for the repo it is
[12:15] <dprc> w/e is fed from repos is the newest version available for your release which is supported
[12:15] <dprc> you can have newer and shiny things from upstream but you are on your own
[12:15] <BubbaGrace> define supported? To go back to avidemux, the version in the repos is very broken if used with any modern codec
[12:16] <BubbaGrace> im just curious what goes in to the decision to add a newer version. I have no reason other than my own curiosity.
[12:16] <dear> dprc: bekks: sabgenton: what do you say about this post? http://www.linux.org/threads/do-not-use-ubuntu.3977/
[12:17] <MonkeyDust> BubbaGrace  #ubuntu-offtopic for discussion
[12:17] <BubbaGrace> sorry
[12:17] <dprc> dear: disable the Unity Lens/Scope for those services
[12:18] <dprc> I am not going to defend this action and is a reason I suggested it be investigated if respect for your privacy is a concern
[12:19] <dprc> There are alternative distros: Debian proper, Trisquel etc
[12:20] <dear> dprc: yes i am looking for them now, i should have investigated before but anyhow i have figured out now, and many thanks for you for your great help on my concerns :)
[12:21] <xer0> hello
[12:22] <xer0> while installing ubuntu in my dell laptop, it shows (initramfs) unable to find a medium containing a live file system.
[12:22] <xer0> some1 help
[12:22] <lotuspsychje> xer0: is your dell an uefi machine?
[12:22] <xer0> no
[12:22] <dprc> dear: The collection applies to the Unity Lens/Scopes using the Unity Dash feature. It was rather controversial - and remains so - as data collection was enabled by default.
[12:23] <lotuspsychje> xer0: you try to install via usb stick?
[12:23] <xer0> yes
[12:23] <xer0> first it shows something like medium not found /dev/sr0
[12:24] <xer0> then after sometimes it shows the above message
[12:25] <lotuspsychje> xer0: you could try no_acpi boot
[12:25] <xer0> how do i do that?
[12:25] <lotuspsychje> xer0: try F1 at your usb stick boot and choose no_acpi from there
[12:26] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: hi :p
[12:26] <EriC^^> hi lotuspsychje :P
[12:26] <dprc> dear: it is not as intrusive as it used to be, but i believe it is still present. a lot of users switch to Linux Mint after that feature was added
[12:28] <dear> dprc: 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] <lotuspsychje> dear and dprc please keep it ubuntu support related in this chat
[12:29] <dear> lotuspsychje: ok, i appologize for being OT
[12:29] <xer0> lotuspsychje, its stuck at kernel panic not syncing attempted to kill init@ exitcode-0x00000009
[12:30] <dprc> dear: mint is based on ubuntu
[12:30] <lotuspsychje> xer0: that doesnt sound very good, your system has an ssd perhaps?
[12:30] <lotuspsychje> !mint | dprc
[12:30] <xer0> nope
[12:30] <dprc> lotuspsychje: and your point is?
[12:30] <ledy> hi
[12:31] <lotuspsychje> xer0: maybe try another usb port? set bios back to defaults
[12:31] <lotuspsychje> dprc: that mint discussions dont fit here
[12:31] <Craigwell> nothing I do will help me to resize an ntfs filesystem after sucessful clone to a new drive w/ larger partition. Clonezilla
[12:31] <lotuspsychje> !info gparted | Craigwell
[12:32] <Craigwell> I did use the -r parameter, and I can mount the drive
[12:32] <dprc> lotuspsychje: our line of discussion is ubuntu
[12:32] <lotuspsychje> !discuss | dprc
[12:32] <xer0> tried, still no progress
[12:33] <lotuspsychje> xer0: what kind of hd is inside?
[12:33] <ledy> when 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] <Craigwell> Ok, Thank you lotuspsychje it worked
[12:34] <lotuspsychje> !yay | Craigwell
[12:34] <ledy> how does Unity or Compiz "affect" Xorg config?
[12:34] <Craigwell> Do I need to change uuid or something before I can get grub to boot it?
[12:35] <lotuspsychje> !uuid | Craigwell
[12:35] <xer0> my laptop is dell inspiron 4050 with intel i5 processor HDD is ST9500325AS (500GB)
[12:35] <Ped_ro> Hi, I need a really quick help: I have to make a program which have to run 2 algorithm. The problem is that one is developed on Ubuntu while the other is coded on windows. Now I'm starting with the GUI: will I face any compatibility issue or, one I have a ".exe" file there is no problem anymore? Thanks for attention :)
[12:35] <Craigwell> just wondering if I have to change something to match the original drive
[12:36] <Craigwell> /etc/fstab or something?
[12:36] <lotuspsychje> !fstab | Craigwell
[12:36] <Craigwell> excellent! Thanks again
[12:37] <dear> how do you private chat in webchat?
[12:38] <lotuspsychje> dear: /query nickname
[12:38] <MrElendig> /query whoever
[12:38] <xer0> !shell
[12:38] <MrElendig> or //msg whoever
[12:38] <dprc> dear: anyway you can disable those unity scopes if take exception Canonical with spying on you: http://www.howtogeek.com/126995/how-to-disable-the-amazon-search-ads-in-ubuntus-unity-dash/?tag=823814-20
[12:38] <xray> hello
[12:39] <Craigwell> hmm
[12:39] <Craigwell> the partitions on the old and new drive have the same uuid's as reported by sudo blkid
[12:39] <xray> can anyone tell me the safest way to transfer data between 2 ubuntu computers using ssh or should i be looking at another website
[12:39] <MrElendig> xray: ssh is fine
[12:40] <Craigwell> xray: I've just had a crash course in clonezilla
[12:40] <Ped_ro> Can't anyone help me?
[12:40] <Craigwell> it is very powerful and quick, with a decent gui and options
[12:40] <lotuspsychje> !ask | Ped_ro
[12:40] <xray> is clonezilla the best to use are there some instructions anywhere please
[12:40] <xray> i will try clonezilla thanks
[12:40] <Craigwell> hang on xray
[12:41] <xray> okay
[12:41] <Craigwell> https://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/783416-how-to-image-and-clone-hard-drives-with-clonezilla
[12:41] <Craigwell> this is a good link to start with,
[12:41] <Craigwell> and there's a second i found useful. one sec
[12:42] <xray> many thanks craigwell
[12:43] <Craigwell> this link helps with the usage a bit more
[12:43] <Craigwell> http://www.tuxradar.com/content/how-clone-hard-drives-clonezilla
[12:43] <xray> i know clonezilla maybe clones harddrives but i just wanted to transfer some files using ssh ftp
[12:43] <atuvenie> Hey, can someone help me with a little problem. I have ubuntu server 14.04.2 and for some reason it is ignoring my static ip setting in /etc/network/interfaces
[12:44] <xray> i was trying using filezilla but i got some kind of error
[12:44] <Craigwell> good luck.. it's not bad, but took me a few attempts to get it right, ntfs partitions tricky. I'm still working on mine - the room was just helping me ;-)
[12:44] <atuvenie> after a minute or so it asks the dhcp server for an ip
[12:44] <Craigwell> ahh my bad
[12:44] <lotuspsychje> atuvenie: maybe the #ubuntu-server guys can help?
[12:44] <xray> can i show you the error on here
[12:44] <atuvenie> lotuspsychje: oh, I'll try there
[12:45] <lotuspsychje> !paste | xray
[12:45] <atuvenie> lotuspsychje: thanks!
[12:45] <xray> thanks ubottu
[12:46] <Craigwell> so if blkid reports matching uuid between old and new drives, am I done with uuid?
[12:47] <lotuspsychje> !blkid | Craigwell
[12:47] <Craigwell> yes, I did that. the uuid's match
[12:47] <Craigwell> is this the desired outcome ?
[12:47] <xray> i have put it here http://imgur.com/hE8m04X
[12:47] <xray> thanks
[12:48] <lotuspsychje> xray: thats your internal ip you connect, did you try external?
[12:49] <xray> no i havent tried external, sorry but i need to turn off the firewall dont i?
[12:49] <lotuspsychje> xray: firewall and router can block this yes
[12:49] <xray> oh yeah
[12:50] <xray> do you think using external may help resolve this problem
[12:50] <lotuspsychje> xray: maybe talk to the ##networking guys about it
[12:50] <xray> okay thanks for help i will give it a try
[12:52] <orion> Hi. I'm using FDE on an Ubuntu VM, and an update for grub has been released. When I attempt to go through the update, I get a prompt asking me to which partition I want to install grub. Which one should I choose?
[12:52] <orion> /dev/sda, /dev/sda1, and /dev/dm-1 are my choices.
[12:52] <xray> could you maybe tell me how to get to the networking guys do i just type##networking
[12:52] <xray> sorry
[12:52] <lotuspsychje> xray: type /join ##networking
[12:53] <xray> many thanks for help
[12:53] <lotuspsychje> xray: no prob mate
[12:53] <xray> cheers
[13:05] <strange> hey guys anyone have any ideas on how i could start a detached tmux session on boot as user "strange" my tmux config already opens the applications i want to run in it im just struggling to find how i can start it on boot
[13:09] <noteugene> Hi everyone, I've been there yesterday with apt-get and untrusted packages. I traced it now to "Ign http://eu-west-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com trusty Release.gpg" and then this file is missing in /var/lib/apt/lists/ after apt-get update it reappears. Does anyone know why would it be ignored?
[13:10] <llutz> noteugene: "Ign means there are no changes in the pdiff index file, it wont bother downloading it again"
[13:14] <noteugene> llutz: what's Hit then?
[13:14] <llutz> noteugene: "Hit means apt checked the timestamps on package list, those match and there are no changes." http://askubuntu.com/questions/294525/what-does-ign-mean-when-running-an-apt-get-update
[13:15] <noteugene> llutz: do you know why would the file be missing from /var/lib/apt/lists/?
[13:15] <paulus68> my config is like this 1 ssd as /home and another where I want to install ubuntu on what do I use as mount point just / or /boot?
[13:16] <KingPrawn22> Hey guys! Looking to allow only SSH keys to connect to a droplet at Digital Ocean. I have added PuTTY in Windows and my Ubuntu laptop, which connect successfully, but I am still asked for a password when accessing the droplet from the console on the Digital Ocean website.
[13:17] <CaptainBlend89> Why might I be getting "sudo: unable to resolve host" in the command line?
[13:18] <llutz> paulus68: /    the root-filesystem
[13:19] <paulus68> llutz: ok thanks
[13:19] <noteugene> KingPrawn22: ssh client has to support private key encryption. if you web console doesn't support it then it'd ask for password
[13:20] <noteugene> KingPrawn22: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/ssh-login-from-console-asks-for-password-when-there-is-none it doesn't use ssh, so you can't have ssh key to access it
[13:22] <noteugene> okay, thank you llutz, I'll try to figure out my apt-get misadventure later. Have a great Saturday
[13:22] <fettler> Hello - I wonder if anyone can help me.  I'm getting a message about unmet dependencies when trying to install wine.  I have pasted the message at http://paste.ubuntu.com/11166233/

[13:31] <Azumineko> Alright I have no clue what is going on but i have tried 8 usb keys and 3 cds to install this thing and 5 diff versions and still no luck, now to figure out what hardware is bad
[13:31] <fettler> Eric:  still problem, pasted to http://paste.ubuntu.com/11166320/
[13:32] <kilde> My ubuntu 14.04 has an issue staying connected to the internet. Tethered to my phone it cycles through connected and disconected, through the ethernet it will not connect at all. This is a recent problem, within the last couple weeks.

[14:43] <lord4163> Try to get Windows 7 in grub but it doesn't seem to work. I tried all partitions. Seems like it has something to do with that Ubuntu is installed on an EFI volume and Windows is plain old MBR
[14:43] <EriC^^> lord4163: are you in ubuntu right now?
[14:43] <lord4163> EriC^^: ye
[14:43] <EriC^^> type ls -l /sys/firmware/efi

[14:45] <EriC^^> paulus68: ok just to make sure type grub-install --recheck /dev/sdd && update-grub
[14:45] <EriC^^> lord4163: ok, type sudo parted -l and paste it in paste.ubuntu.com
[14:45] <fettler> EriC^^: It's finished.  What command should I try now?
[14:45] <EriC^^> fettler: try sudo apt-get install wine
[14:46] <lord4163> EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11167440/
[14:47] <lord4163> EriC^^: I used grub customizer to add the windows 7 entry, shall I remove that?
[14:47] <paulus68> EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11167453/
[14:47] <EriC^^> lord4163: you need to either reinstall ubuntu in legacy mode, or install windows in uefi mode
[14:48] <acer> EriC^^,  hey Eric my friend, how u doing today, do you know where i can get advice on how o installl sound on conky if i hoover over the items ?

[14:48] <EriC^^> paulus68: ok, type exit
[14:48] <paulus68> EriC^^: done
[14:48] <EriC^^> paulus68: restart the pc and see if it works
[14:49] <lord4163> EriC^^: really?
[14:49] <EriC^^> lord4163: yeah
[14:49] <paulus68> EriC^^: same result :(
[14:50] <EriC^^> lord4163: or you would have to switch the bios between uefi and legacy to boot ubuntu or windows
[14:50] <EriC^^> paulus68: make sure sdd is first in the order in the bios
[14:51] <EriC^^> acer: i think conky has that plugin already
[14:52] <EriC^^> it's in the settings > plugins or so

[14:58] <EriC^^> fettler: ok, try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine
[14:59] <Gornle> Hi.  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] <Gornle> How/where do I PREVENT that IPv4 nameserver being deinfed & used?  It simply does not exist.
[15:00] <fettler> EriC^^:  I don't know what a ppa is, but this is a clean install performed a coupla hours ago.
[15:02] <Osz> How do I find out how much free space on my HD in GB

[15:49] <smacktalk> bodhi_zazen: googling msi + ubuntu report everybody trying to install on msi is having trouble
[15:50] <bodhi_zazen> but "MSI" is a brand, that is like saying if you google search (nvidia|ati|intel) everyone is having problems
[15:50] <OerHeks> "everybody trying to install on msi" is a wild accusation, what msi model exactly?
[15:50] <smacktalk> bodhi_zazen:just doesn't boot from the usb...hangs.  from the cd it says it's bad install media or bad hard drive
[15:50] <bodhi_zazen> +1 OerHeks
[15:51] <OerHeks> oh check the iso first with md5sum
[15:51] <bodhi_zazen> that sounds like a bad download or bad dvd

[17:10] <jones_> How do I launch gparted
[17:12] <ioria> jones_, maybe you don't have it installed
[17:12] <SchrodingersScat> jones_: should be able to select it from the application menu, then it will prompt for your password, gparted from commandline probably works.
[17:13] <jones_> SchrodingersScat: Installed it
[17:13] <jones_> now .. how do I know which one is my SD-card ?
[17:14] <SchrodingersScat> jones_: it will likely be after sda, size of the device might help you find it.
[17:15] <jones_> it's probably /dev/sdb
[17:15] <SchrodingersScat> It's possible
[17:15] <the_tricky> does "sudo apt-get upgrade" upgrade the whole system?
[17:16] <bibi_> hello
[17:16] <ioria> jones_, df
[17:17] <SchrodingersScat> the_tricky: there's also dist-upgrade, which intelligently handles changing dependencies with new versions of packages.
[17:17] <jones_> jones@Serenity:~$ df

[17:18] <the_tricky> SchrodingersScat: but will I get a new distro version doing "sudo apt-get upgrade"?
[17:19] <NicholasCage> jones_ here again
[17:19] <SchrodingersScat> the_tricky: no, to do something like ubuntu 14.10 -> 15.04 I think it's do-release-upgrade, or through the software gui, afaik
[17:19] <NicholasCage> http://sprunge.us/SLfc
[17:19] <the_tricky> SchrodingersScat: thx, that's the answer I was looking for
[17:20] <SchrodingersScat> the_tricky: read the manual page for the do-release-upgrade, there's a --mode= option, not sure if that matters, but I like to set it.
[17:20] <bibi_> hello, someone can help me with the touch command please ?
[17:21] <SchrodingersScat> NicholasCage: yep, likely it.  see if gparted gives you any help, probably shouldn't be mounted while it formats?
[17:22] <NicholasCage> SchrodingersScat: Can't write to /dev/sda because it is opened read-only
[17:22] <SchrodingersScat> NicholasCage: that's probably what you're booting off of, thought you were trying to format /dev/sdb
[17:23] <NicholasCage> Oh
[17:23] <NicholasCage> type
[17:23] <NicholasCage> TYPO'
[17:23] <NicholasCage> It's /dev/sdb2
[17:23] <NicholasCage> and no it couldn't even though I unmounted it
[17:25] <NicholasCage> http://sprunge.us/OZcN
[17:26] <SchrodingersScat> k, try installing those?
[17:29] <tyrog> Hi, what is the best program to replace Adobe Reader in Ubuntu? tnx
[17:30] <HedgeMage> tyrog: evince
[17:30] <tyrog> HedgeMage: That doesn't support some features. Is there any better one?
[17:30] <NicholasCage> http://sprunge.us/RSbK
[17:30] <HedgeMage> tyrog: I believe that if you use the default ubuntu menu set-up, though, it is called something stupid like "Document Viewer".
[17:30] <HedgeMage> tyrog: What features are you looking for?
[17:30] <jaysodyssey> hey aftykins
[17:30] <NicholasCage> See now I just followed a guide, what to do in order to sort this out ?
[17:30] <jaysodyssey> daftykins are you set to away
[17:31] <jaysodyssey> talking to a celebrity whats up NicholasCage
[17:31] <NicholasCage> jaysodyssey: I'm experiencing a bit of THE BEES atm, otherwise I'm fine kind sir
[17:31] <tyrog> HedgeMage: add notes do PDF documents; sign PDF files...
[17:32] <feneco> how to create permanent aliases on ubuntu 12.04? i'm trying to add to ~/.bash_aliases and it doesn't work
[17:32] <NicholasCage> http://sprunge.us/RSbK <- Does anyone know how I sort this out, it has to do with superblocks, read-only permissions and so forth, can't mkfs my SD-card
[17:33] <feneco> the alias i'm trying to create is: rtz="sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org"
[17:34] <zimablue> hi, /home/zimablue/bin isn't getting picked up in my $PATH launching the terminal, even though when I look, the .profile script (as standard) should be adding it
[17:34] <jaysodyssey> the BEES?
[17:34] <HedgeMage> tyrog: In this context, do you mean "sign" as in a cryptographic signature, or "sign" as in adding a graphical signature as if you'd signed a paper document with ink?
[17:35] <gtgo> hi, I am using ubuntu 10.04 and dont want to to upgrade, having firefox 20 on it, would like to upgrade to its latest version, how can i be able to do that, thanks?
[17:35] <SchrodingersScat> jaysodyssey: nick cage joke.  NicholasCage: does your card have a physical 'lock' slide on the side? I have one that does, that might make it read only
[17:35] <NicholasCage> jaysodyssey: yeah, can't get this sorted. Trying to format an old SD-card for my raspberry pi to put in Arch ARM instead, but it doesn't allow for mkfs because it's " read only " and I get weird superblock errors
[17:35] <NicholasCage> SchrodingersScat: thank you
[17:36] <haye> gtgo: 10.04 is no longer supported
[17:36] <jaysodyssey> omg i know pi its an incredible OS light and lightning fast
[17:36] <jaysodyssey> we used it a few years ago to make "car computers"
[17:36] <haye> gtgo: try upgrading to a newer version (14.04 is lts)
[17:36] <tyrog> HedgeMage: 2nd
[17:36] <jaysodyssey> you can put it in the tiniest box
[17:36] <gtgo> haye,  i know that, but thats why i mentioned that DONT want to upgrade it
[17:37] <feneco> i dont upgrade to 14.04 lts because i use some software that is not available in this version, in the ubuntu center
[17:37] <madebymarkca> like what?
[17:37] <haye> gtgo: whoops, sorry, maybe try a firefox ppa?
[17:38] <feneco> its a software that i bought from ubuntu software center
[17:38] <HedgeMage> tyrog: I'm told that Okular does a good job of letting you annotate PDFs in a portable way, but I've never actually tried it as I don't have enough interest in annotating PDFs to make me want to install all its dependencies...
[17:38] <feneco> robotux
[17:39] <SchrodingersScat> true, I do not see this in 15.04 repos
[17:39] <mecado> hello there! I'd like to change the order of OSes in the grub start menu. I have installed grub customizer for this. yet in this program 'many many more' ubuntu versions with kernel numbers are listed. I also checked my kernel version, but interestingly, most of these many kernels have later version numbers than the one I get shown for my current OS. how is that possible?
[17:39] <feneco> is there a way to show the software available in previous versions?
[17:39] <gtgo> haye,  i tried one but was not functioning, thank you
[17:40] <madebymarkca> you use macros that much?
[17:40] <madebymarkca> must be something besides robotux
[17:40] <mecado> ok, I moved up the entry with my kernel version. will restart now, and see if it worked..till soon!
[17:40] <haye> gtgo: Well i can imagine most of the dependencies are also not supported anymore for 10.04 so it might be practically impossible
[17:40] <gtgo> haye, ohh...:(
[17:41] <SchrodingersScat> feneco: if it's EoL then not sure if there would still be any archives, etc.
[17:41] <HedgeMage> tyrog: 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 mind
[17:41] <HedgeMage> the PDF as a whole being an image rather than searchable text isn't hard.
[17:41] <HedgeMage> tyrog: That said, someone who uses GUI tools more than I may have better suggestions.
[17:42] <tyrog> HedgeMage: Thanks, I will give a try to some alternatives
[17:44] <mecado> no, it didnt work. can you help me please?
[17:45] <mecado> the first two solutions here didnt work: http://askubuntu.com/questions/100232/how-do-i-change-the-grub-boot-order
[17:45] <kevinde> Recently I wanted to install a different graphical envoirnement but something wrong happened, I have no GUI anymore to select at the login menu and when I try do for example sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop I get this error: http://pastebin.com/GCHdC4sR
[17:45] <haye> gtgo: Perhaps compiling from source would do the trick..
[17:46] <kevinde> Does anyone know how this can be fixed?
[17:46] <kevinde> I am using ubuntu 14.04
[17:47] <jParkton> kevinde: can you get to the terminal?
[17:47] <kevinde> yes, I have ssh access open
[17:48] <ikonia> have you been messing with your repo sources / ppa ?
[17:48] <kilde> is anyone here able to Help me?      My 14.04 ubuntu ethernet connection is no longer working. I can only get on by tethering my phone through USB. Even then it disconnects and connects all the time.
[17:48] <ikonia> those are all standard packages,
[17:49] <kevinde> I did add a few in the past but other then that nothing
[17:49] <gtgo> haye, thank you, i will try to do that
[17:49] <ikonia> kevinde: what did you add
[17:49] <EmmaSocks> I want to spend $300-500 on a laptop that will be dedicated for Ubuntu linux
[17:49] <EmmaSocks> anyone recommend me one that won't give me hardward driver problems
[17:50] <EmmaSocks> and plays nicely with Ubuntu?
[17:50] <ikonia> buy one that has as much intel as possible
[17:50] <ikonia> best safe way
[17:51] <xangua> or ubuntu preinstalled
[17:51] <kevinde> ikonia: I added one about a week ago so I dont know the exact line anymore, but it was something related to a theme for gnome
[17:52] <ikonia> kevinde: that seems unlikley, it's most likley got more than an theme in and broke the standard repo deps
[17:52] <EmmaSocks> ikonia ok
[17:52] <kevinde> ikonia: If thats the case is there any way I could restore the default repo?
[17:53] <ikonia> it's not a case of restoring the default repo
[17:53] <ikonia> its the packages the other repos have put on
[17:53] <ikonia> pastebin sudo apt-get update
[17:53] <ikonia> lets have a look
[17:53] <kevinde> alright, hang on
[17:53] <EmmaSocks> ikonia nVIDIA graphics ok?
[17:53] <EmmaSocks> or intel built in graphics?
[17:54] <ikonia> EmmaSocks: intel all the way
[17:54] <ikonia> if you want to minimise any risk
[17:55] <kevinde> ikonia: http://pastebin.com/XqdvaH70
[17:55] <ioria> kilde if you open Network Connection , what you have ?
[17:56] <EmmaSocks> ikonia gotcha ty very very much
[17:57] <ikonia> kevinde: you've put webmin on - all bets are off
[17:57] <ikonia> !webmin | kevinde
[17:58] <kevinde> ikonia: Well this is ubuntu we use at school and our teacher pretty much forced to use it :)
[17:58] <ikonia> then your teacher is a weak teacher
[17:59] <ikonia> and he should be able to help you clear up the mess
[17:59] <ki7rw> i sure am having a tuff time getting swap to work - on a reboot the swap partition (/dev/sda#) UUID changes and the setting in fstab gets remarked out - can't seem to correct the problem with gparted - on a reboot the partition becomes inactive with an exclaimation mark
[17:59] <ikonia> ooh and he added a debian repo in too
[18:01] <kevinde> ikonia: Guess I will do a fresh reinstall then to start fresh and do everything properly
[18:05] <kevinde> !webmin
[18:05] <tartarr> hello there, in smart test for hard drive there are 3 options: what is the difference between 'extended' and 'conveyance'?`which one takes longer / is more detailed?
[18:06] <OerHeks> http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi?search=webmin
[18:07] <OerHeks> no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system.
[18:07] <OerHeks> not only ubuntu, also debian itself :-)
[18:07] <kevinde> OerHeks: Thank you
[18:08] <OerHeks> ubottu, please come online?
[18:08] <kevinde> ;)
[18:11] <tartarr> ok, I started extended, as it is mentioned to be the most useful: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools
[18:13] <kilde> ioria: is there a way to do it in the terminal so I could paste the results?
[18:14] <kevinde> Is there any hotkey to get back to the login menu after CTRL + ALT + F1?
[18:14] <supersmilers> Hi. I wanted to install Ubuntu on the laptops that supports Windows 7 Pro. What distro should I install?
[18:14] <ioria> kilde i just asked what happen if you open Network Connections
[18:15] <jaysodyssey> kilde use command |pastebinit
[18:15] <jaysodyssey> I think that works
[18:15] <EriC^^> kevinde: alt+f7
[18:16] <kevinde> that worked, thanks
[18:17] <EriC^^> kevinde: no problem
[18:18] <Johnny_Linux> kevinde , in the future, stick with your installed distro for extra packages nd ppa's
[18:18] <kilde> ioria: it opens fine and shows the connections. when it disconnects me it will show that it is disconnected.
[18:18] <supersmilers> I'm just wondering about what distro should I install on those HP laptops that supports Windows 7 Pro?
[18:19] <OerHeks> supersmilers, go for ubuntu/kubuntu
[18:19] <supersmilers> u mean soming like unity based or kde based?
[18:20] <supersmilers> *something
[18:20] <kevinde> Johnny_Linux: I will keep that in mind
[18:20] <OerHeks> supersmilers, sure, sounds like your machine should be able to handle that
[18:20] <ioria> kilde and you can configure ethernet connection ?
[18:21] <OerHeks> supersmilers, duo core, 2gb+, recent GPU ?
[18:21] <kilde> ioria: yes I can configure it
[18:21] <supersmilers> How do I know it's 64 bit or 32bit. those don't have OS installed just bios
[18:21] <ioria> kilde ifconfig ?
[18:22] <OerHeks> supersmilers, see specs from your vendor. or boot a live 32 bit iso, and check it with (terminal: lscpu)
[18:23] <supersmilers> its the Intel vPro i5 chips
[18:23] <OerHeks> i5, sure, go for 64 bit
[18:24] <supersmilers> How do I boot it in UEFI mode?
[18:24] <OerHeks> see the wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
[18:25] <OerHeks> and uefi manual from your machine, there are differences between vendors.
[18:25] <supersmilers> like using rufus to make proper flashdrive that support uefi?
[18:26] <kilde> ioria: http://pastebin.com/yPDLAVFg
[18:26] <OerHeks> i heard about rufus, not sure that is a good tool.
[18:27] <OerHeks> Just format the usb in fat32 and put the iso with rufus/unetbootin on it.
[18:27] <ioria> kilde eth0 is not configured
[18:28] <jvr> Hi there
[18:28] <supersmilers> ah. I just wanted to know. Adiirc auto disconnect like after few minutes or so.
[18:29] <jvr> so, NVIDIA prime only works with drivers version 331
[18:29] <jvr> odd... not sure why the profile options are gone in newer drivers
[18:29] <TheEternalAbyss> hey there, I'm having some reboot issues. I can't get ubuntut o start anymore. was running fine, the I shut it down. Tried to reboot and I get Firmware Bug errors and devices that are apparantely "taking a long time"
[18:29] <CarlFK> settings/time-date says "[x] show clock in menu bar" but my clock is no longer in the menu bar.  umm. how do I bring it back?
[18:30] <OerHeks> jvr it is now nvidia-prime https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/HybridGraphics
[18:33] <DJones> !test
[18:35] <NicholasCage> So.. I'm trying my VERY darndest to get the ARCH-ARM on an SD-card for my Raspberry Pi. I can't follow the guide to every point because ..well..Because Ubuntu
[18:35] <NicholasCage> If anyone could aid me with that I would be every grateful :)
[18:36] <alezy> hello all
[18:39] <kilde> ioria: can you help me set it up right?
[18:39] <ioria> kilde eth0 is plugged ?
[18:40] <kilde> ioria: if you are asking if the ethernet cable is plugged in, then yes it is.
[18:41] <ioria> kilde so open Network Connection and set up a static configuration , with ip different from the usb
[18:43] <Naphatul_> does ubuntu not use the config file if provided in ~/.ssh ?
[18:44] <DalekSec> Naphatul_: Ubuntu uses ~/.ssh/config, I use that all the time.
[18:45] <Naphatul_> oh wait i've been matching my subnet by ip when i've actually been accessing machines by hostname
[18:46] <LinuxGuy2020> Hello Im trying to learn C programming and I was wondering other than buying a book right off the bat. How can I list all of the functions that are available to use? So I can get an idea of whats available?
[18:46] <DalekSec> Naphatul_: Host vanir \n HostName vanir.local  then?  To  ssh vanir  and it go to vanir.local.
[18:47] <maddawg2> LinuxGuy2020, this is a ubuntu channel not a programming channel
[18:48] <rebs> LinuxGuy2020,  try #C
[18:48] <Naphatul_> i'm using it to turn of host key checking since i'm working with a banana pi and flashing images often
[18:48] <LinuxGuy2020> They turn around and say this isnt a linux channel.
[18:48] <LinuxGuy2020> hehe
[18:48] <TheEternalAbyss> i keep getting into Emergency mode on boot
[18:49] <TheEternalAbyss> now i got on my radeon: invalid ROM contents err
[18:49] <TheEternalAbyss> i have no idea wtf is going on here..
[18:51] <gytis> hello!
[18:52] <victormiranda> PFFFF
[18:57] <NicholasCage> Anybody here good enough with tools like fdisk and wget and basic directory knowledge to aid me with a thing that's been bothering me for hours
[18:57] <NicholasCage> would be much appreciated
[18:58] <SchrodingersScat> !ask
[19:00] <NicholasCage> Ok, so I will elaborate further, excuse my desperation. I've been trying like a maniac to install Arch ARM onto an SD-card, I've done a lot of the steps, but some just can't be done _from ubuntu_, I've used the guide provided @ Arch ARMs website, I can link it or sprunge anything you guys want and when all is solved, I would happily provide a guide
[19:02] <Guest5410> This is my first time in an IRC channel EVER
[19:02] <SchrodingersScat> NicholasCage: elaborate on 'can't be done from ubuntu'
[19:03] <kokut> Guest5410: u feeling the adrenalin rush m8?
[19:03] <Guest5410> oh, yeah.
[19:03] <OerHeks> !yay | Guest5410
[19:04] <TheEternalAbyss> if I weren't havng the issues with ubuntu that I am having i'd give the traditional irc welcome to the new guy
[19:05] <ddd> guys anyone please help me here...
[19:05] <kokut> Guest5410: just hold tight, i remember the first time i went into an irc channel and it was like an extreme overdose
[19:06] <Guest5410> so defcon CTF trials are going on and I have no idea what I'm doing.  Reading articles about debugging stripped binaries... I can barely figure out weechat.
[19:06] <SchrodingersScat> !support | Guest5410
[19:06] <ddd> i am using ubuntu 15.04 in my acer aspire e1 570g..
[19:07] <pwca> sometimes there's annoying ghosting on my dual monitor.
[19:07] <pwca> sometimes there's not.
[19:07] <pwca> what could be the problem?
[19:08] <ddd> i am using ubuntu 15.04 in my acer aspire e1 570g......n laptop auto restarts after shutdown?????but if got pendrive in my usb port it does not????
[19:08] <pwca> specifically, sometimes when I start my "computer" I get this ghosting effect, but then other times when I start my computer I don't. I think it stays pretty constant whenever I I keep it on.
[19:08] <pwca> I am using 15.04 but this was also an issue with 14.04.
[19:08] <ddd> can anyone please help me if u done this before...
[19:08] <ddd> okie pwca..??
[19:08] <ddd> thanks dude...
[19:08] <ddd> okie pwca did u get the solution for that..
[19:09] <ddd> previously i had and after installing laptop mode tolls i was ok...
[19:09] <ddd> but now after further upgrading that too doesn't work...
[19:10] <jak2000> hi friends why can do an apt-get update ? here more info: http://pastie.org/10192155  thanks
[19:10] <kilde> ioria: it all looks good to me but it still boots me off of the internet and reconnects again.
[19:10] <ioria> jak2000, there is a good reason
[19:11] <ddd> any idea ubuntu 15.04 shutdown and restarts automatically but with a pen drive in usb port it shut's down??
[19:11] <ddd> please anyone turn on n help thanks...
[19:11] <NicholasCage> SchrodingersScat: Ok, I do not know the proper commands to issue to accomplish what needs to be accomplished in the guide that Arch ARM provides from ubuntu.
[19:12] <ioria> kilde which ip did you enter ?
[19:13] <ddd> nicholas cage was the arch arm for me dude???
[19:13] <aardmark> Hi - does anyone here have experience / can help me troubleshoot some postfix fine-tuning? no one is responding on #ubuntu-server ..
[19:13] <ddd> nicholas cage was the arch arm for me dude
[19:14] <x__> it's strange, my sound works up until I put my headphones in
[19:16] <FloKat_> re
[19:17] <NicholasCage> SchrodingersScat: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv6/raspberry-pi
[19:18] <TheEternalAbyss> so nobody can help with my not booting properly issue?
[19:19] <Flo_K> hi, i got some problems using conky & rhythmbox 3+ while ${if_running rhythmbox} seems to show nothing
[19:19] <kilde> ioria: automatic DHCP
[19:20] <SchrodingersScat> NicholasCage: I don't see anything that ubuntu can't do.
[19:20] <ioria> kilde  set up a manual configuration
[19:21] <kilde> ioria: any idea how I can find what ip address to enter?
[19:21] <x__> with windows 8, my laptop was never hot.  I installed ubuntu 15.04 last night, and the laptop is continually hot
[19:21] <jak2000> ioria wich reason for not work?
[19:22] <ioria> jak2000, you are outdated
[19:22] <jak2000> see:
[19:23] <NicholasCage> The forth step didn't work, I can't bsdtar it onto the sd-card
[19:24] <NicholasCage> it's as if it does it to my main ubuntu-rig
[19:24] <ioria> kilde  your usb is :192.168.42.17 so your gateway should be 192.168.42.x , choose an ip in that range
[19:24] <TheEternalAbyss> guess not
[19:25] <jak2000> ioria: http://pastie.org/10192370
[19:25] <jak2000> need install the essentials libs?
[19:26] <ioria> jak2000, oh, please
[19:26] <smacktalk> bodhi_zazen:no problem installing linux mint, but ubuntu..no go
[19:29] <ioria> jak2000, first, you should not be root, and are you sure to have make installed ?
[19:33] <kilde> ioria: do I have to fill in the netmask and gateway?
[19:34] <ioria> kilde  netmask is 255.255.255.0 and the gateway ...well... is you router

[19:44] <ioria> jak2000, i don't think so
[19:45] <jak2000> how to add, jak2000 to sudoers?
[19:45] <ioria> jak2000, you don't need to add anything
[19:45] <harishkrupo> jak2000, sudo adduser jak2000 sudo
[19:46] <jak2000> ok i am ok...

[19:50] <ioria> jak2000, you can download ubuntu 14.04
[19:51] <jak2000> is possible install ubuntu 14.04 ? remotely?
[19:51] <ioria> jak2000, you can try do-release-upgrade, but sometimes it fails
[19:52] <jak2000> sudo: do-release-upgrade: command not found
[19:53] <ioria> jak2000, maybe with sudo,  but it's better a fresh installation
[19:55] <jak2000> yes i run with sudo

[19:57] <jak2000> ok, download the iso on same system?
[19:57] <jak2000> i havent access to
[19:57] <terabyte> hey,
[19:57] <jak2000> vps console
[19:57] <nyavek> hi everyone quick question. Im running ubuntu 15.04 gnome, I installed pulseaudio-equalizer, but then trying to install it, I uninstalled pulseaudio. I don't get any system sounds with my volume up buttons anymore. How can I fix that? The system sounds DO work, just not for the buttons
[19:58] <nyavek> pulseaudio was reinstalled btw.
[19:58] <jak2000> and havent acces for cpu phisically
[19:58] <terabyte> if i move my mouse, it works fine, but if i keep the mouse still for 3 seconds, it stops responding, and i have to move it again before it starts moving again. it's like it doesn't respond to the first mouse movement after a 3 second or more pause in usage.
[19:58] <terabyte> it's not a wireless mouse, it's a usb wired mouse.
[19:59] <ioria> jak2000, cpu ?
[20:00] <jak2000> yes the server phisically
[20:02] <ioria> jak2000, what's your need exactly ?
[20:03] <jak2000> i only have acces to vps server.
[20:04] <terabyte> any ideas why my mouse doesn't respond to the first movement after it's left still for more than 3 seconds?
[20:04] <jak2000> with root user password
[20:04] <jak2000> i need upgrade to 14.04
[20:07] <SaberCaliburn_> Hi, I'm thinking of getting a new pc and installing ubuntu and win10 when it comes out. Is this a good low price pc, a8 cpu seems good.. http://goo.gl/5gPTqa
[20:08] <SaberCaliburn_> My bad wrong link: http://goo.gl/XBDyLD
[20:08] <rebs> if i upgrade to 15.10 from 14.04 will my bookmarks and symlinks in my home directory remain, or do i need to back those up
[20:08] <tonyt> its not bad for the price if you dont mind using a AMD machine
[20:09] <tonyt> SaberCaliburn_
[20:09] <Bashing-om> jak2000: ' dpkg -l update-manager-core ' is the manager installed ?
[20:09] <SaberCaliburn_> Did you look at the new link, sorry, using a8 cpu not the a10..
[20:09] <sikio> SaberCaliburn_: it's a better idea to use intel+nvidia
[20:10] <SaberCaliburn_> I would, if you see a new PC below £200, I'll be happy yo see
[20:10] <tonyt> if i needed a cheap machine and dint plan on gaming that amd on ebay would be doable
[20:11] <tgm4883> if you don't need to do gaming, you could get a pi 2
[20:11] <tonyt> better off doing what recomended thouhg
[20:11] <sikio> SaberCaliburn_: bear in mind that cheap machines can contain bad components
[20:11] <tonyt> *though
[20:11] <sikio> such as a bad power supply
[20:11] <tonyt> you get what you pay for as the saying goes
[20:11] <SaberCaliburn_> this pc will go in home, so parents will use it too, mainly for videos and stuff.. doubt anyone will play games on this
[20:11] <rebs> amd is just fine
[20:12] <terabyte> any ideas why my mouse doesn't respond to the first movement after it's left still for more than 3 seconds?
[20:12] <Bashing-om> rebs: Always back up important data, or it is not important. the path will be 14.04 -> 14.10 -> 15.04 . In oder for personal files to be saved they must be on a separate /home partition .
[20:12] <sikio> oh and one thing
[20:12] <sikio> there might be integrated components
[20:12] <sikio> so upgrading becomes impossible
[20:12] <rebs> thanks Bashing-om
[20:13] <SaberCaliburn_> i was looking at the datasheet.. it has a free pcie slot for halfbracket gpu
[20:13] <Sarge123> Has anybody in here have experiences with telepathy?
[20:13] <tgm4883> sikio: Not sure why you think amd is bad
[20:13] <Bashing-om> reb :) 7 Ps .
[20:13] <tonyt> if your gaming etc, amd is fine
[20:13] <sikio> tgm4883: I don't necessarily mean it's bad
[20:14] <tonyt> *if your not
[20:14] <sikio> I hear that intel is better supported
[20:14] <tgm4883> sikio: you are thinking of graphics, not CPU
[20:15] <tonyt> if all your going to be doing with the machine is web surfing, email, movies etc, that amd a10 is perfect
[20:15] <sikio> so any CPU works the same with ubuntu now?
[20:15] <sikio> well that might be
[20:15] <sikio> I just generally see intel cpus recommended for linux use
[20:15] <tonyt> or jsut get a intel based machine with a older i3 3240 in it. pletny fast enough to do what ever
[20:16] <tgm4883> SaberCaliburn_: are you savvy enough to build your own?
[20:17] <SaberCaliburn_> i know of it, haven't done once myself... but this is a home pc, not for me personally, and on limited budget
[20:17] <tgm4883> you can build one on a limited bundge
[20:18] <SaberCaliburn_> for £200.. you can get better than I seen?
[20:19] <NotAPerson> i am looking for an old bug
[20:19] <NotAPerson> i filed in 2009
[20:19] <NotAPerson> is it on launchpad?
[20:19] <jonascj> Hi all. Anyone experiencing a blurred/out of focus look to their mkv files when played bac in vlc? It happens for me every 30sec or so, it will blur slightly for a few seconds, then go back to being sharp again.
[20:20] <kevindf> I installed gnome-session-flashback on my ubuntu 15.04 system, is it possible to remove the regular ubuntu desktop and keep the gnome flashback only? or would that be risky
[20:21] <tgm4883> SaberCaliburn_: I prefer to build my machines so I know the components are compatible. You could try that machine, or you could attempt to put one together. Here is a list of pre-configured builds that other people have done that are under 200 pounds(?) https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/guide/#page=1&X=0,20000&sort=a2
[20:22] <tgm4883> jonascj: is it always blurry in the same spot?
[20:22] <SaberCaliburn_> tgm4883 nice find
[20:22] <tgm4883> SaberCaliburn_: I can't say that all the components in those builds are linux compatible, but you can see whats in them and change them out pretty easily
[20:22] <tgm4883> SaberCaliburn_: pcpartpicker.com is amazing
[20:23] <terabyte> any ideas why my mouse doesn't respond to the first movement after it's left still for more than 3 seconds?
[20:24] <tgm4883> SaberCaliburn_: also, it does do some compatibility checking that the parts are compatible (eg. making sure the memory you are buying is compatible with the motherboard, you aren't buying an agp card for a motherboard that doesn't have an agp slot
[20:24] <tgm4883> !patience | terabyte
[20:24] <tgm4883> terabyte: wireless mouse?
[20:24] <terabyte> no, wired
[20:24] <tgm4883> terabyte: running any cpu intense stuff, virtual machines, etc?
[20:31] <terabyte> tgm4883: no, nothing else is running
[20:32] <terabyte> happens all the time, including before anything is loaded
[20:32] <tgm4883> odd, not sure then
[20:32] <zykotick9> terabyte: sidenote, i had an issue with my mouse when i was using "powertop --auto-tune" and had to disable the powermanagement of the USB mouse (or i'd get laggy/delayed performance as well)... sorry, i know it's not much help...
[20:53] <SaberCaliburn_> tgm4883 what do you think of this sub£200 build .. though it doesn't come with an official win key http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/hmJ3XL
[20:54] <terabyte> zykotick9: how did you do that?
[20:54] <tgm4883> SaberCaliburn_: looks good, not sure the support on the Radeon HD 7560D though
[20:55] <SaberCaliburn_> but even with this cheap build.. the pre built one stills looked better, and inc.s a win8 licence and gfx card
[20:55] <tgm4883> SaberCaliburn_: looks like it's probably supported in the proprietary drivers
[20:56] <Knight80> Hello everyone
[20:56] <Knight80> I need some help here
[20:57] <Knight80> Ubuntu does not detect my tv card anymore
[20:57] <SaberCaliburn_> so custom: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/hmJ3XL VS prebuilt:http://goo.gl/XBDyLD
[20:57] <Knight80> :(
[20:57] <parmao> hello there! I just did an 'extended' self test for my hard drive. it's been showing one bad sector for a while, and all short tests have shown the same until now. however the extended test just ended with 'SELF TEST FAILED' message. Also saying: Last self-test failed (read)
[20:58] <parmao> reallocated sector count is zero
[20:58] <Linxcat> In ubuntu, under Accessories->Disks, there is an option to delete a disk. What does that actually do? I did this on couple of my USB drivers and now i cant find them anywhere
[20:58] <EriC^^> Linxcat: type sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[20:59] <parmao> last time I was told that if this count shows zero, then it might not be really a disk damage..also the last time I had this self test failed message was then (without me having run a test at the time)
[21:01] <Linxcat> Eric: actually i just pulled out the USB sticks and re-inserted them and now they show up
[21:01] <zykotick9> terabyte: in my case it was powertop that was doing it, so i copied the command it ran, and did the opposite (there was some html output option or something, i don't remember the specifics sorry)...  good luck.
[21:02] <parmao> can anything be said about the state of the drive?
[21:13] <kevindf_> I would like to disable a service upon startup in ubuntu 15.04, how can this be done without removing any files,
[21:13] <t3chguy> what starts the service kevindf_
[21:13] <kevindf_> systemd?
[21:13] <ObrienDave> and which service?
[21:13] <kevindf_> cups
[21:14] <kevindf_> I've tried "sudo systemd cups disable" but it said Excess arguments.
[21:17] <kevindf_> ok found it :) it's systemctl
[21:18] <OerHeks> sudo systemctl disable cups
[21:20] <ObrienDave> \o/
[21:25] <Knight80> Hello
[21:25] <Knight80> I'm having some problems with my dvb-t card
[21:25] <Knight80> Ubuntu 15.04 doesn't recognise it anymore
[21:29] <pantato> if I change my polling rate to 500 mhz using modprobe -r usbhid && modprobe usbhid
[21:29] <pantato> the paramter changes to 2
[21:29] <pantato> but if i reboot, it changes back to 0
[21:29] <Knight80> Here's the pastebin
[21:31] <pantato> http://pastebin.com/S6JUaZBi <--- i never had this problem with 14.10. Is it a systemd related issue maybe?
[21:31] <Knight80> http://pastebin.com/1cDKAfkP
[21:32] <leonic> hello where cain i find a antivirus for ubuntu or somenthing similar?
[21:32] <tgm4883> Knight80: a dmesg might make more sense, to see if your card is being recognized
[21:32] <tgm4883> !info clamav
[21:32] <pantato> leonic: don't need one
[21:32] <pantato> leonic: that's kind of the point of using linux
[21:33] <Knight80> tgm4883 How?
[21:33] <tgm4883> Knight80: by typing 'dmesg' into the terminal
[21:33] <leonic> yeah i know but i  am runing a  live version  whit yumi
[21:33] <tgm4883> pantato: I'm not sure I'd say that is the point of linux
[21:33] <Knight80> tgm4883 Oh, sorry, I thought the command was more complex :)
[21:34] <leonic> and last time  i cheked  whit a win version y i have (guess) the  link  virus i guess
[21:34] <pantato> tgm4883: well, that's why i use it for a desktop environment :)
[21:35] <Knight80> tgm4883 It doesn't recognise the card
[21:36] <tgm4883> pantato: The biggest security hole that causes viruses in windows exists in linux as well
[21:36] <Knight80> tgm4883 Or does it? ------> [   19.608181] saa7134 0000:03:00.0: DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 frequency 0 out of range (51000000..858000000)

[21:40] <leonic> mmm stupid,ingnorand and too cleaver users
[21:41] <tgm4883> ObrienDave: even smart users can be tricked by very clever things
[21:42] <Knight80> tgm4883 What could I do?

[21:42] <ObrienDave> tgm4883, in 30+ years, i have NEVER been hit by a virus by my own stupidity
[21:42] <sikio> ObrienDave: how do you know?
[21:43] <ObrienDave> experience
[21:43]  * tgm4883 sighs
[21:43]  * ObrienDave is an OLD fart ;P
[21:43] <Johnny_Linux> windoze IS a virus
[21:43] <tgm4883> :q
[21:44] <alef> hello
[21:44] <tgm4883> ObrienDave: you are showing a sample size of 1, which is irrelevant
[21:45] <ObrienDave> this is partly true ;P
[21:47] <tgm4883> ObrienDave: FWIW, most viruses now don't pop up flashing ads/porn, grind your system to a halt, or delete all your files. They hide themselves as best as possible, running their payload in the most hidden way possible.
[21:47] <ObrienDave> nah, really? please tell me you're kidding, right?
[21:48] <tgm4883> ObrienDave: sorry, I'm going back to your "experience" comment, which also holds little value by itself
[21:48] <ObrienDave> you're entitled to your opinion
[21:51] <DalekSec> tgm4883: Well, specifically of late, they fully encrypt your computer until you pay them.
[21:53] <tgm4883> DalekSec: some do, yes.
[22:02] <dcope> hey all, is there a tool to see streams of traffic to see if programs are talking over ssl, tls, etc.?
[22:02] <colortester> dcope: wireshark

[22:03] <Boraelix> woops
[22:03] <dcope> :-)
[22:03] <dcope> colortester: cool, i'll check it out. thanks!
[22:04] <Boraelix> does anyone know how to install hexchat themes on ubuntu?
[22:04] <colortester> dcope: you can feed the output of tcpdump into wireshark for easier analysis
[22:05] <Boraelix> does anyone know how to install hexchat themes on ubuntu?
[22:05] <OerHeks> Boraelix, in ~/.config/hexchat/addons/
[22:07] <levi_> so I'm having this issue and I'm wondering if anyone can help me. i tried changing the permissions of my htdocs folder so that I could edit html/php files in it, directory /opt/lampp/htdocs, anyways I used the command chmod a-rwx /opt/lampp/htdocs and now it won't even let me access it. I tried a couple other chmod commands off of google before that and none of them allowed me to read and write from it so I tried using my own command and I thin
[22:07] <levi_> k I might have screwed up
[22:08] <Boraelix> i cant find my .config folder
[22:08] <OerHeks> ctrl + h in nautilus, to see hidden files with a dot
[22:09] <levi_> can anyone please let me know how to fix this
[22:09] <levi_> now when i try to go cd htdocs i get "permission denied"
[22:10] <Boraelix> how to i open nautilus?
[22:10] <Boraelix> i searched for it after i installed it but its not there
[22:11] <NoivernOfDoom> wtf, System program problem again...
[22:11] <OerHeks> its your standard filemanager
[22:11] <Boraelix> oh so its the same thing as files?
[22:11] <NoivernOfDoom> yes
[22:11] <NoivernOfDoom> *ubuntu just calls it files to be user-friendly
[22:11] <NoivernOfDoom> it's just nautilus
[22:11] <Boraelix> oh ok
[22:14] <Boraelix> now do i just restart hexchat?
[22:14] <Johnny_Linux> yep
[22:15] <Borealix> it didnt work
[22:16] <NoivernOfDoom> did you ctrl-h?
[22:16] <NoivernOfDoom> then go to a dir with hidden files
[22:16] <NoivernOfDoom> like ~
[22:17] <Borealix> yep i dragged the .zip and extraced the files and restarted hexchat but the theme didnt change
[22:17] <ObrienDave> Borealix, have you asked in #hexchat?
[22:18] <dcope> can tcpdump show if a connection is over tls or ssl?
[22:18] <dcope> i can't find anything in the manpages for it
[22:18] <OerHeks> was there a readme in the zip?
[22:18] <Borealix> nope
[22:20] <bekks> dcope: tcpdump show packet contents. It is up to you to decode them, using wireshark, e.g.
[22:21] <leonic23> how do i chek a iso to see if there is a broken file or semething ???
[22:22] <owen1> ubuntu 14.04 on carbon x1 2nd gen. usb3 is not working. how do i troubleshoot this?
[22:23] <EriC^^> leonic23: which iso?
[22:23] <leonic23> ubuntu 14
[22:23] <droid909> i'm installing ubuntu server in Vmware, it allowes to choose kernels, there is generic and virtual
[22:24] <droid909> shoudl i choose virtual?

[22:28] <EriC^^> you don't have the command md5sum ?

[22:34] <jmakov>  /join #i2p
[22:35] <leonic23> it worked thanks
[22:36] <jmakov> hi. 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?
[22:37] <bekks> I'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] <bekks> another user != root.
[22:37] <jmakov> bekks: sudo -u
[22:38] <bekks> jmakov: and doing so, will boil down on modifying /etc/sudoers in a way that user A is allowed to execute commands without password?
[22:40] <EriC^^> bekks: add <user> ALL: (ALL) NOPASSWD: /path/to/command
[22:40] <bekks> EriC^^: thank you ver much.

[22:43] <jmakov> raymondillo: didn't know that the ppa doesn't work, tnx

[22:44] <grogoreo> When changing the lightdm greeter in /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/ is the default picked up by the numbered prefix? Where currently I have 50-unity-greeter.conf and want 60-lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf should I just rename 60 to 40?
[22:44] <raymondillo> jmakov: I didn't know that either. Just pointed ya to the docs. :)
[22:44] <bekks> EriC^^: Yeah, the goal is to execute a shell script that starts a VM as a specific user, who is not intended to be able to login at all.
[22:44] <bekks> EriC^^: Kinda "service user".
[22:46] <bekks> EriC^^: I want to run all my vbox vms as "vbox" user, for keeping administrative overhead low.
[22:53] <EriC^^> bekks: maybe add <your user> ALL= (ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/su <user> -c "command"
[22:56] <bekks> EriC^^: "command" without options?
[22:58] <bekks> EriC^^: the entire line would look like this: vbox ALL= (ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/su vbox -c "/usr/bin/VBoxHeadless -s vmname"
[22:58] <bekks> EriC^^: Maybe I should wrap that into a small script like "vbox_startvm_vmname"?
[22:58] <EriC^^> bekks: yeah, that sounds good
[23:00] <phix> so any ideas gang?
[23:00] <phix> With vino-server using 100% CPU?
[23:00] <EriC^^> bekks: also use su <user> -lc
[23:02] <phix> EriC^^: su probably won't work as ubuntu (by default) doesn't set a root password
[23:02] <phix> EriC^^: also su as a user would :P
[23:02] <phix> to a user even
[23:03] <phix> but why not use sudo?
[23:03] <EriC^^> phix: su works
[23:03] <phix> EriC^^: It does, however sudo is a better way of doing that :)
[23:03] <EriC^^> phix: he doesn't want to put a password
[23:03] <EriC^^> ^
[23:03] <phix> EriC^^: great, sudo supports that
[23:04] <EriC^^> you mean sudo -S ?
[23:04] <phix> EriC^^: you can even narrow done what apps he can run
[23:04] <EriC^^> phix: he's already using sudo for that command
[23:04] <phix> EriC^^: No, edit /etc/sudoers and add in a NOPASSWORD line
[23:05] <EriC^^> phix: yes, scroll up
[23:05] <phix> ah
[23:06] <Exagone313> hello, i want to convert a local rtmp stream into a webm stream to be played in a navigator. i find tutorials with ffmpeg + ffserver, but i've already installed apache2 and nginx (this one is receiving the rtmp stream). is there a workaround without ffserver?
[23:06] <bekks> Ok guys, I want to run /usr/bin/VBoxManage and /usr/bin/VBoxHeadless as user C from a script started as user A or user B.
[23:07] <bekks> How would I go about it?
[23:07] <Exagone313> currently, i use flowplayer and it uses flash player, and I don't like it. so I try to add a source supported by browsers
[23:07] <Exagone313> and i need a webm stream
[23:08] <Fuchs> bekks: only these two commands or sudo in general, and, I assume, these two without password?
[23:08] <bekks> Fuchs: Only these two commands, with all options possible, without entering a password.
[23:09] <Fuchs> the "with all options possible" makes this a bit harder
[23:09] <bekks> Fuchs: yeah :)
[23:12] <Fuchs> bekks: try   VM_USERS ALL = (root) NOPASSWD:NOEXEC: VM_COMMANDS
[23:12] <Fuchs> bekks: with Cmnd_Alias VM_COMMANDS = /usr/bin/VBoxManage, /usr/bin/VBoxHeadless
[23:13] <Fuchs> bekks: and User_Alias VM_USERS = a, b
[23:13] <bekks> Fuchs: Ok, let me try that, it'll take a few :)
[23:13] <Fuchs> bekks: if that doesn't cover all options, you can technically use wildcards and shell expansions behind the commands
[23:13] <Fuchs> bekks: use visudo to edit the file, just to make sure that the syntax is correct, when you do advanced stuff like that
[23:14] <denis_> hello
[23:14] <denis_> how for removed wine in my system ?
[23:14] <Fuchs> bekks: what this should do is granting the users named in that alias to execute as root (and only root, not as other users) the scripts named in the command alias, without a password and without the possibility to get a new shell with it
[23:15] <EriC^^> denis_: sudo apt-get purge wine
[23:16] <denis_> ok thank you, i try that
[23:17] <krjackson> I've come from an openbox install and I really miss my hotkeys. Is there a simple way to launch applications with a key-combo?
[23:19] <bazhang> alt f2 run as krjackson ?
[23:20] <krjackson> Yeah, but that's more cumbersome than super-t to open terminal, super-f to open file manager, etc.
[23:23] <EriC^^> krjackson: try xbindkeys
[23:23] <krjackson> xbindkeys... I'll look into that, thanks.
[23:24] <elstud> krjavkson go to wiki hotkeysit covers all OS.
[23:24] <krjackson> Awesome. I'll check that out too.
[23:25] <elstud> let us know if that is not whay your looking for.
[23:25] <mekhami> is there a dedicated channel for the ubuntu mobile? or is this chan good enough
[23:26] <xangua> !touch
[23:26] <krjackson> I will elstud, thanks.
[23:31] <grend> hi folks
[23:31] <grend> :)
[23:31] <Johnny_Linux> ohluh
[23:31] <denis_> EriC^^,  that not correct for removed wine in my menu, i use Xubuntu
[23:32] <denis_> how removed wine in my menu ?
[23:32] <grend> daftykins: I run that command partially got info when used ctrl C  ^C4673+0 records in 4673+0 records out 9799991296 bytes (9.8 GB) copied, 140.834 s, 69.6 MB/s
[23:32] <grend> I wonder what it means by copied? it suppose to format disk :D
[23:33] <grend> or it writes 0s into it?
[23:33] <bekks> Fuchs: it resulted in a syntax error, trying to recover sudo root access now.
[23:34] <Fuchs> bekks: thus me recommending visudo  *sigh*
[23:34] <Fuchs> interestingly enough the syntax should be correct, let me doublecheck
[23:35] <Fuchs> bekks: should be fine, edit the file with visudo and check what it complains about. If not possible via sane means, do that from a rescue shell (boot with  init=/bin/bash)
[23:44] <grend> funch: any idea how long dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=2M would take on 100Gb disk?
[23:45] <grend> its been running for sometimes and I want to make sure its doing something
[23:45] <grend> :D
[23:45] <bekks> Fuchs: visudo complains about syntax error near line one: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11175388/ (without the leading #)
[23:45] <EriC^^> grend: type sudo pkill -USR1 ^dd
[23:46] <Fuchs> bekks: well, that is supposed to be an User_Alias
[23:47] <tgm4883> grend: on sda?
[23:47] <grend> yes on sda
[23:47] <Fuchs> also I assume that camel is a user and not a group, else you don't need an alias and can use %groupname  below anyway
[23:48] <grend> EriC^^: I can kill it however I want it do what it suppose to do, maybe just wait and it will be done
[23:48] <danielle31> Hi 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 disconecting
[23:48] <danielle31> from that specific wifi network.
[23:48] <bekks> Fuchs: like this?: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11175420/ - and yes, camel is a username
[23:48] <EriC^^> grend: it will show you the progress if you type that command from another terminal, it won't kill it
[23:48] <tgm4883> grend: supposedly that doesn't kill it http://www.serenux.com/2011/02/howto-monitor-the-progress-of-dd/
[23:48] <grend> ty
[23:49] <Fuchs> bekks: looks good to me, see what visudo thinks. I hope that's not all the content of your sudoers file, mind
[23:49] <Fuchs> bekks: else you'll be without regular sudo users the very moment you save that
[23:49] <grend> wow awesome trick
[23:49] <grend> :)
[23:49] <bekks> Fuchs: No no, thats the content of /etc/sudoers.d/virtualbox :) - /etc/sudoers contains the unchanged defaults
[23:50] <Fuchs> ah, sane idea
[23:51] <grend> ubuntu is largest flavor of linux?
[23:51] <grend> atm
[23:52] <Fuchs> grend: very hard to measure. On the desktop: probably, at least if you count the various unofficial wallbuntus such as Linux Mint as well
[23:52] <grend> when linux was invented it was just 1 version called linux?
[23:53] <bodhi_zazen> grend, depends on how you count, it is if you consider it all Debian
[23:53] <bodhi_zazen> If it is not all debian, how do you then define ubuntu derivatives ?
[23:53] <Fuchs> grend: Linux was always (and still is) only the kernel
[23:54] <grend> Funch kernel is a core OS?
[23:54] <grend> to which extra functions are added?
[23:54] <bodhi_zazen> Fuchs, lol, not really , you need at least kernel + GNU
[23:54] <Fuchs> grend: 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 need
[23:54] <rafaelsoaresbr_> grend, linux is the kernel, everythng else was the GNU Project
[23:54] <Fuchs> bodhi_zazen: no you don't, you can use a different userland than GNU and you can use GNu with a different kernel than Linux.
[23:55] <grend> so if I boot kernel alone what can I do? nothing much?
[23:55] <Fuchs> grend: 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] <grend> cool
[23:55] <grend> funch: its to see what makes linux and ubuntu diff
[23:55] <bodhi_zazen> I 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)
[23:56] <grend> so first people invents linux and then its becomes bigger and one of the branches of bigger is ubuntu?
[23:56] <Fuchs> grend: as a minor sidenote, you can use the tab key to auto-complete nicknames, so you would get mine wrong less often
[23:57] <grend> I did there is Fuchs and funch  here
[23:57] <grend> :)
[23:57] <Fuchs> grend: 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.
[23:58] <grend> Funch well thats clear, ty :D
