kokutHello, anyone knows how to give apache write permissions to a folder?00:04
daftykinsyes00:04
daftykinswhat are you trying to set up?00:04
OerHekschown it to www-data i guess00:05
VanDerGrootwp-content/uploads perhaps?00:06
daftykinswell we can all guess :)00:06
daftykinskokut: ?00:08
aimnanowell i hosed that VM00:10
daftykinslucky they can be backed up!00:10
aimnanoso after i restore it from a backup, who knows how to resize a LUKS partition00:10
daftykinsnot me00:10
aimnanonot only that, it's BIOS, and i want to extend it over 2TB aka i have to convert it to GPT without breaking it?00:10
aimnanois this even possible?00:11
daftykinsonly a boot volume need be GPT over 2.xTB00:11
=== andrex is now known as andrex|off
aimnanowell it is a boot volume00:14
aimnanoit's basic ubuntu partition layout (with LVM)00:14
aimnano(and LUKS)00:14
aimnanoi think it's only 2: swap and root00:14
daftykinsright but a VM? so anything can be changed00:15
daftykinsanyway nm i don't do encryption00:15
Johnny_Linuxgood LUK00:15
aimnanolol00:15
guest211211ok so00:15
guest211211i installed the mini iso00:16
guest211211it asked me to remove my boot media, so i did, the system restarted00:16
guest211211and now im at a black screen with a white blinking cursor. should i reboot again or just wait more?00:16
daftykinshit enter a few times00:16
daftykinssee if anything becomes visible00:16
aimnanoit doesn't sound like it successfully installed GRUB00:16
aimnanodid you tell it not to?00:16
aimnano(bootloader)00:16
daftykinsthat'd be unlikely since the system would print a boot error message surely00:17
guest211211i told it to go ahead and install grub00:17
guest211211should i reboot?00:17
daftykinsno harm in trying00:17
daftykinsbut hit a few keys as i say00:17
guest211211rebooting jsut takes me to that same screen00:18
guest211211ugh00:18
guest211211should i pop the usb back in?00:18
daftykinshold left shift as it boots00:18
daftykinssee if you get the GRUB menu00:18
daftykinsand you haven't replied about my suggestion to press keys?00:18
guest211211sorry, thought i did. i tried hitting a bunch of keys00:18
guest211211shift also didnt work00:19
daftykinsok try both shifts (one at a time) and also escape00:19
daftykinsas in repeatedly, rapidly press them00:19
linuxuz3rhow do i use libboost properly00:20
linuxuz3rplease help00:20
guest211211neither shift works, esc takes me to boot device00:20
guest211211im going to try reinstalling00:21
daftykinshit enter on the hard disk then hit escape again00:21
daftykinsno, you give up too easy00:21
daftykinsEriC^^: ^^00:21
guest211211ok hitting enter just takes it to the black screen with blinking cursor and then hitting esc from that point does nothing00:22
daftykinsno you have to do it quickly00:22
daftykinstry the shift keys again after powering off fully00:23
Ender_WigginHey hey. I'm having display issues with my 14.04. Did some fiddling around with xrandr and tried multiple drivers, but kept issues. Right now, if I use the current X.org nuevo driver (Nvidia GT 520), I get a blank screen after BIOS boot and have to reboot and select to launch Ubuntu from GRUB menu. When I switched to the latest Nvidia driver, I no longer have to boot twice, but both drivers lock the display resolution to 800x60000:26
Ender_Wigginnouveau*00:27
Bashing-omguest211211: MBR booting grub looks for the shift key, UEFI looks for the escape key . press escape repeatedly as soon as the firmware screen clears . Maybe ?00:27
LeEarlhello guys00:27
Ender_WigginCurrently running Nvidia 331.113 from Additional Drivers00:27
LeEarlis it true the kde is made with qt and gnome is made with glide?00:28
LeEarland if so then how to make a pure x gui app?00:28
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: so right now you're in, but @ 800x600?00:30
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: what type of monitor and which kind of cable connection?00:30
Ender_WigginHey dafty =]00:30
Ender_WigginYep00:30
Ender_WigginViewsonic 21" LCD DVI, 1680x1024 max res i believe00:31
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log00:31
Hilikuswhat is the "quiet splash" option on grub's parameters?00:31
daftykins1680x1050 mmk00:31
daftykinsHilikus: suppress boot messages (quiet) and display splash screen (splash - via plymouth)00:31
guest211211hitting esc does bgring up the BOOT device screen. i can choose either one of the boot devices which just leads tot hat black screen00:31
Hilikusdaftykins: can i use spash without quiet?? it doesn't make much sense00:31
Ender_WigginIm currnetly using the Nvidia driver, still want a pastebin from Xorg.o.log?00:31
guest211211i think i can also enter bios (the usb is NOT plugged in currently)00:31
daftykinsHilikus: not since it'd be in the way of the messages i suspect :> why not just use GRUB at boot time and edit the boot parameters to try once00:32
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: yep00:32
Hilikusdaftykins: ah ok, will try that. thank you00:32
Ender_Wigginhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/11215431/00:32
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: also if you would paste "lspci | pastebinit"00:32
Ender_Wigginhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/11215433/00:33
daftykinsah yes failed to read EDID from display, common one that00:33
daftykinsare you using any form of cable adapter, or is it directly DVI to DVI?00:33
Ender_Wigginis it fixable?00:33
Ender_Wigginno adapter, DVI - DVI00:34
Bashing-omguest211211: What release did you install ? and with a desk top ? Maybe we can boot with the boot parameter "nomodeset" ??00:34
daftykinsweird. ok first up, power off the computer - pull the mains power supply cable to the LCD, let it stay off for a minute, reseat the cable and then power on the screen and reset it to factory defaults. then fire up the PC again and see if it changes00:35
guest21121114.0400:35
guest211211its on a laptop00:35
guest211211i  cant even GET to grub though is the thing00:35
daftykinsguest211211: my message was to Ender_Wiggin00:36
Ender_Wigginkk00:36
guest211211got it00:36
guest211211hey hey00:38
guest211211I DID SOMETHING00:38
guest211211I THINK I GOT IT WORKING00:38
norlanehihi00:38
Bashing-omguest211211: Try; Boot in CCSM (legacy) mode , and as soon as the bios screen clears depress and hold the shift key . Do you now get grub boot menu ?/// Great ^^00:38
guest211211i plugged the usb in, hit enter, tried to enter the USB, mashed osme letters like what daftykins suggested, and im back at a login screen00:38
guest211211it says Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Icarus ttyl (i named the computer Icarus during installation)00:38
daftykinsnice00:38
guest211211ok so00:39
guest211211I think I might have not installed Ubuntu desktop? but i got ubuntu00:39
Bashing-omguest211211: OK, Thst is the minimal install right ? Now to install the aps you want to use ??00:39
guest211211im logged in and now its like, username@icarus:~$00:39
daftykinsnow you need a network connection00:40
daftykinspreferably wired00:40
guest211211if i go wired i wont be able to stay in contact with you00:40
daftykinswhy, one cable?00:40

Bashing-omguest211211: Problem is that the minimal install only supports wired on the initial install .00:41

EriC^^guest211211: great00:42
guest211211no, im on a desktop which is downstairs and the connection is UPSTAIRS00:42
daftykinsso go plug it in :)00:42
guest211211oooooookay00:43
JinjaNinjaThis may be a noob question, but I seriously need to know. My laptop used to hold up to 7-8 hours of battery life (when I was running Windows 8), now my battery dies faster. Maybe there isn't a difference of battery lifetimes, maybe I'm just remembering wrong. Is there a way to increase battery life/ see if the battery is being used inefficiently?00:43
JinjaNinja(Running ubuntu)00:43
Johnny_Linuxel oh el00:43
Johnny_Linuxsheesh00:43
EriC^^JinjaNinja: there's powertop00:43
daftykinsWindows will pretty much always give better battery life00:43
guest211211ok laptop is plugged in, what command00:43
EriC^^guest211211: which desktop would you like to install?00:44
EriC^^guest211211: i think the mini iso is supposed to ask that though?00:44
JinjaNinjaEriC^^: Not aware of it. What is that?00:44
daftykinsif i were you i'd "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" first00:45
EriC^^JinjaNinja: it's like top but for power i assume, never used it myself00:45
daftykinsbut bear in mind you likely won't have an IP from having plugged the network cable in after boot, so you might need to "sudo dhclient eth0" first00:45
daftykinsyeah it's intel's prog for pointing out what's waking up the CPU and so on00:45
guest211211ok, so "sudo dhclient eth0" and then ""sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"00:46
JinjaNinjaSee, my laptop only gets 5-6 hours of battery life now. That concerns me a bit. I'll be using my Laptop throughout college, and I LOVE Ubuntu. I'd like to see better battery lifetimes though.00:46
Ender_Wiggindaftykins ok reset to factory defaults. Still cant change resolution00:47
daftykinsok well it was worth a try00:47
Ender_Wigginany other solution suggestions?00:48
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: you can either look up how to pull an EDID on Windows or Ubuntu and then use it in a xorg.conf, or you can look up how to add a resolution with xrandr00:48
daftykins_or_ you can try different nvidia drivers :)00:48
daftykinsas i think you only mentioned 304 and 33100:48
=== tenach is now known as cptmashek
JinjaNinjaI know 5-6 hours is "Okay" But that's not an option for me, I love seeing my technology at it's peak battery lifetimes.00:48
daftykinsJinjaNinja: not gonna happen off Windows.00:49
Ender_Wiggindaftykins, yeah i tried all the drivers available from Additional Drivers00:49
Ender_WigginI attempted to add resolutions through Xrandr as well00:49
daftykinsto what end?00:49
JinjaNinjaI wonder if I could just get a stronger battery :P00:49
Ender_Wigginno effect, as far as i know00:49
Ender_Wigginis there a way to view the Xrandr resolutions?00:49
Ender_Wigginas in what's been added00:49
=== cptmashek is now known as tenach
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: well you need to add it then select it, right now i'm sure it has nothing above 800x600 - run "xrandr | pastebinit"00:50
Ender_Wigginhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/11215609/00:51
Ender_Wiggini can try to readd the resolution, can ya link me to a guide?00:52
daftykinsno i can't, as we can both google :)00:52
daftykinsyou seem to be connected to DVI-1 now00:52
daftykinsand not DVI 000:52
Ender_Wigginshould I change that?00:53
daftykinsyip00:53
Ender_WigginI never moved it before00:53
Ender_Wiggintheres only 1 DVI port on the monitor actually00:53
daftykinsthis is in relation to the card.00:53
Ender_Wigginsame00:53
=== Sax_ is now known as Knave
guest211211daftykins, did you see the order of commands i asked were ok?00:54
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: hrmm i'd look in nvidia-settings for any res adding, or see something like - http://sammart.in/2012/05/29/enabling-resolutions-in-ubuntu-12-04-lubuntu-12-04/00:55
daftykinsjust remember it's 1680x1050 - but boot Windows to confirm if available. or just look up the LCD model00:55
guest211211daftykins ok, so "sudo dhclient eth0" and then ""sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"00:56
Ender_Wiggini can confirm its 1680x1050 from manual and previous resolution set at that on this machine00:56
daftykinsdon't run the first bit just because, only run it if the latter doesn't work00:56
guest211211ok, gog it00:56
Bashing-omguest211211: Cjeck that networking is up after the 'dhcp' command ' ping -c3 ubuntu.com '. Then update .00:58
daftykinsthis guy is gonna be up and down stairs ;)00:58

ubottuMadBro nobody here is responsible for whatever woes you are facing: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList00:59
MadBroYes Ubuntu Gnome is responsible because it's their product and I just installed it and I am not able to update anything.01:00
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: is it one of these funny 144Hz displays ?01:00
Ender_Wiggindaftykins the manual says 60hz01:01

guest211211bashing-om ok so i should now go in and enter what command? "dhcp ping -c3 ubuntu.com01:01

Ender_Wigginah sorry01:01
daftykinsguest211211: yes that's normal01:02
MadBro@daftykins Got you but I don't have an attitude, I'm pissed off at this problem I'm getting for no reason at all. I chose fulll disk encryption and it encrypted my swap partition so now it's causing me not to be able to update.01:02
MadBroI've never had this problem before until 15.0401:02
Ender_Wigginok so actually looks like it goes up to 1680x1050 85x 93.9hz01:02

Ender_WigginMadBro he really doesnt.01:03
guest211211MadBro I understand you're upset but getting mad's not going to solve anything, and pissing off the people here realllly isn't goingt to help you at all01:03
daftykinsEnder_Wiggin: i don't know anymore than you about getting xrandr to accept that command, i'd read the man page or find another guide perhaps - dunno01:03

hghgHullo - trying to install lubuntu 14.04.2 and want disk encryption and disk-overwrite (of empty space). But get error message  :01:45
hghgAn unsafe swap space has been detected.  This is a fatal error since sensitive data could be written out to disk unencrypted. This would allow someone with access to the disk to recover parts of the encryption key or passphrase.  Please disable the swap space (e.g. by running swapoff) or configure an encrypted swap space and then run setup of encrypted volumes again. This program will now abort.01:45
hghgAny thoughts? More info : it is a MacBook with a broken optical drive, so the only way to install is via usb... but Macs are a bit finicky at times, so I have to do a live boot into the desktop and then from there select the <install lubuntu option>....01:45

tsushiSomeone know an easy to setup log analyzer ? I tried to install Graylog08:04
tsushiBut, now i just wanna kill myself08:04
iptablemichagogo, 1. check if you have enough ram, 2. check another terminal (xterm or something, you may need to install it), 3. run memtest (need reboot to grub), 4. run fsck08:04
iptabletsushi, what logs?08:05
michagogoiptable: I have 3034 MB of RAM, and it's in a VM. And yes, I already tried xterm and it's fine.08:05
tsushiGood question lol. Both for networking gear and another linux server08:06
iptabletsushi, tried logwatch?08:06
tsushinah, only been wrestling with graylog so far08:06
tsushii'll check it out08:07
iptabletsushi, there is also nagios for log monitoring. try both then.08:07
iptablemichagogo, so we know it's that particular terminal emulator that's faulty. tried reinstalling? apt-get install --reinstall ...08:07
michagogoeep, fsck is giving a scary warning08:07
tsushiokay, thanks08:07
michagogoI guess I need to unmount the fs08:07
michagogoso... reboot from the iso?08:08
michagogoiptable: sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-terminal?08:08
michagogoI'll try that08:08
iptablemichagogo, it's possible somehow it's got corrupt, in which case I would also run a full fsck and smart test (install smartmontools and run smartctl -a to see if overall disk status is passed). Could be bad sectors.08:09
michagogoReinstalled gnome-terminal, still happening08:09
michagogoiptable: is memtest/smartctl relevant in a VM? I'd assume not.08:10
iptablemichagogo, fsck should be done in offline mode, so yes. boot from liveCD and perform an fsck. there is a switch to make it not repair errors but just report them to begin with if you want (man fsck).08:10
iptablemichagogo, fsck is relevant. memtest is too (VM could be allocated faulty RAM bits). smartctl, depends. if you have bad sectors on the physical HDD, then yes, most relevant. You need to run memtest and smartctl on physical host though.08:11
michagogoOkay, booting from the iso to fsck in the vm08:11
michagogoHost is Windows.08:11
iptablemichagogo, ugh, liveCD the host, install and run smartmontools (smartctl -a), and reboot liveCD into memtest. let it do 5 passes.08:12
michagogoErm, i tried running fsck08:12
jpentlandI have some problems with APT and DPKG - does anyone know what could be up? http://pastebin.com/VXZWcXff08:13
michagogoit just printed "fsck from util-linux 2.20.1" and exited08:13
iptablemichagogo, should memtest, smartctl and fsck not fix your issue, then the problem is most likely somewhere else, within the VM installation. I would try then to: remove gnome-terminal from /var/cache/apt, run apt-get install --reinstall again, or even purge and install instead to make sure binaries are gone (assuming gnome-terminal purge will not try to remoe hell load of stuff as dependency)08:13
iptablejpentland, gzip: stdout: No space left on device08:14
michagogoiptable: looks like SMART status on the host is OK08:14
iptablejpentland, as stated by the error, you have no space left on device. df -h to see. you will notice that /boot partition (as you put it on a separate partition and made it too small) is full.08:14

michagogoActually, makes sense that it wouldn't do anything :P08:15

iptablemichagogo, yes, you can enable crash dumps for it or run it with strace (strace gnome-terminal) to see08:42
iptablemichagogo, though I don't play with those so either google or ask for someone to assist with those. It's the last thing you can do apart from a reinstall08:43
michagogo(BTW, I first realized this was happening when I noticed my automatic environment variables weren't set after I rebooted after that tgz thing, so I ran `ls -a` and it crashed)08:43
iptablemichagogo, I will bet it's some library that gnome-terminal uses08:44

Number5Hello guys, I have an Asus Eeepc 901 just collecting dust. I'd like to install the latest suitable ubuntu so my son can play with. What's the best distro to install? I googled a bit and found out that Eeebuntu is discontinued, but EasyPeasy's website is still alive. I hope you have some nice recommendations.08:57

k1l_!lubuntu | Number508:57
ubottuNumber5: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support.08:57
k1l_that first atom cpus are really really slow. so lubuntu is the best bet on ubuntu basis08:58
Number5ubottu, thnx, but I need a bistro specially tweaked for Eeepc 901 model. Eeebuntu and Easypeasy was specially tweaked for it.08:58
ubottuNumber5: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)08:58
Number5oooh :P08:59

iptablemichagogo, open("/tmp", O_RDWR|O_EXCL|O_DIRECTORY|O_NOATIME|0x400000) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)09:00
iptableopen("/tmp/vte51IMYX", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0600) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)09:00
Number5k1l_, It's not like I want the latest of the late OS. I have no problem if it's a bit old, as long as it is tweaked well for Asus 901.09:00
iptablemichagogo, ^ fiddled with and changed permissions of /tmp then?09:00
k1l_Number5: since that devices are really old (and really slow) there are no special distros anymore. and since this is #ubuntu we stick to the official ubuntu releases. therefore try the lightweight Lubuntu09:00
michagogoiptable: nope.09:00
Number5Dedi, no that's too heavy.09:00
k1l_Number5: Lubuntu is tweaked for old and slow hardware. so yes09:00
michagogoWell, not knowingly... Might `tar xf` change permissions of cwd? o_O09:00
iptablemichagogo, by the sound of the above, yes. looks like your untarring did somrthing09:00
iptablemichagogo, drwxrwxrwt   1 root root  888 May 19 09:58 tmp09:01
DediNumber5, sorry if it doesnt fit your needs...09:01
Number5k1l_, hmm ok thnx, I'll check it out.09:01
iptablemichagogo, ls -l / <- check it shows the above09:01
Number5Dedi, you don't have to apologise :)09:01
michagogogod dammit09:01
Dediseriously what make a distro lightweight?09:01
michagogohttps://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/Y4KPmkt6/09:02
k1l_Dedi: the used desktop, the settings it comes with. just read about Lubuntu. the bot just gave the link09:02
michagogoso... chmod 777 /tmp?09:02
Number5k1l_, I know that Asus 901 is old and slow, but it's awesome to learn bash scripting, wget websites and get images and stuff. Nice hacks for my son of 9 years old.09:02

iptablemichagogo, then sudo chown root:root /tmp09:04

michagogoDoes this look right? https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/LLJ44u0y/09:05
Dediha...ha..I mean too much noise...09:05
iptablemichagogo, yup.09:05
Night_ElfDedi: Maybe bad GPU drivers. Does the same thing happen if you are on text mode only and remain such for some time?09:05
iptablemichagogo, you *may* need to reboot now if gnome-terminal still doesn't work. a LOT of things weren't running properly due to lack of /tmp09:06

michagogothank you SO much for your help...09:06

citroniksk1l_, how to change pw im new09:06
iptablemichagogo, that will normally help fix th issue of tar having permission set to ..09:06
Dedifrequently happen when browsing...09:06
michagogoiptable: yeah, I expect I'll remember that for next time09:07
Dedican I install for example xfce for crunchbang(the os I am using now)?09:07
iptablemichagogo, tar can set . and .., so keep the tar file below 1 dir for safety if you don't know what it is. glad we solved it :)09:07
Night_ElfDedi: More often when you browse flash content sites, or javascript content sites?09:07
iptableDedi, sound-cancelling-headphones?09:08
Dediflash, like youtube, using Iceweasel 20.009:08
michagogoiptable: as am I. Again, I can't thank you enough09:08
iptablemichagogo, no worries09:08
michagogoAt annoying as it was to lose 2 hours to this, it would have been much worse to have to reinstall and set the VM up from scratch09:08
Night_ElfDedi: You might ned to check what flash player you're using. Adobe or gnash, for example.09:09
Dediadobe I guess...09:09
Night_ElfDedi: Ubuntu has Iceweasel? Wow!09:09
iptableDedi, flash is very buggy, but that would be your CPU fan spinning. 1. buy compressed air and clean up your fan using that. 2. install chrome/chromium and enjoy youtube and other sites via HTML5. 3. buy faster laptop if  you can,, 4. DO check what flash player you are using as Night_Elf suggested, 5. make sure you installed GPU drivers09:09
iptableDedi, actually, FIRST make sure you have GPU drivers installed if you are running ATI/nvidia, not the default opensource ones. you will not get GPU performance on nvidia/ati unless you use their proper drivers. so your CPU could be doing GPUs job09:10
Dedimy laptop is using intel...I ll try chrome/chromium then...09:11
Night_ElfDedi: actually, when that fan noise appears, do you have high cpu load ?09:13
Dediyes, like 10 % and 500 MB of 1 GB ram...09:14
Night_ElfDedi: 10% of cpu load is not that bad. My laptop starts to fan-up when cpu load goes around 70%09:18
k1l_Dedi: crunchbang is dead and not supported here anyway09:18
DediI guess my RAM is very low, yes, cruncbang is not supported, but i think it lightweight, so why dont give it a try...09:19
k1l_Dedi: because its #ubuntu in here. if you want to talk about crunchbang see their support channel or try ##linux09:20
Dedievery time i send text it says ##linux :Cannot send to channel09:20
DediI dont know why...09:20
Dedithats why I am here...he..he..09:20

zen_WOW, Ubuntu 14.04 is burning up my cpu's :( is 14.10 a better choice?09:54
zen_i tried P-senser, nvidia-prime. have it set to powersave.. still burning up :(09:55
iptablezen_, burning up CPUs? install official nvidia driers09:57
iptabledrivers even09:57
iptablezen_, not just prime.09:58

iptablezen_, are they running? dd they compile? lsmod |grep -i nvidia09:58

zen_thx for the help iptable.. im a little new to linux still10:03
k1l_Edisto: yes.10:03
zen_if i kill firefox its still an issue yes10:03
iptablezen_, typically, I need you to kill firefox and tell me what happens to the temperature10:04
k1l_Edisto: see linuxatemyram.com for an explanation on how linux uses the ram and why a "full ram" is not the same as you know it from windows.10:04
iptablezen_, also once you ill firefox, check with top to see what is using the CPU again.10:04
iptablezen_, also check free ram with free -m (shows in MB). and once done, check if you run xubuntu/lubuntu/ubuntu gnome 14.04 if this is still an issue or just with official main ubuntu. (boot from liveCD/liveUSB to test). We will then know what we are troubleshooting.10:05
zen_cpu usage dropped to 4% after killing firefox.. temp is still 70c10:06
zen_xorg is on top10:06
iptablezen_, where you getting % from?10:06
iptablezen_, from top output?10:06
Edistok1l: thanks. Was trying to figure why my system was slowing must have been gimp and flash plugin from firefox10:07
zen_from psenser10:07
iptableugh10:07
iptablezen_, ok, apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade10:07
iptablezen_, as root10:07
zen_em:          3722       2069       1653         29        293        91910:08
iptablezen_, once done reboot to new kernl (just reboot) and chek again. if issue persists, give us output from top (first full page), full output from dmesg, and output from free -m - all in a pastebin.10:08
zen_sry.. free mem10:08
iptablezen_, we don't work with cutouts, full output in passtebin10:09
zen_ok thanks abunch Iptable, brb10:09
iptablezen_, I might not be here, but someone else should pick up10:09
iptablezen_, to clarify, I believe something may be wrong with compatibility of kernel module which handles CPU timing and sleeps10:10

PigDudeI’m running an Ubuntu VM via VMWare. ntpd seems to crash on this VM whenever it is paused for some time (whether by pausing the image in VMWare, or by suspending the host OS which has the same effect). (on `sudo service ntpd stop` I get “start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 1248: No such process”, for instance). What logs can I look at to troubleshoot this?13:12
PigDudeThe VM is Ubuntu 12.0413:12
ikoniaPigDude: the process is killed at pause13:13
ikoniabecause you can't keep a time server running13:13
ikoniaso it can't kill it because the process the pid file is referencing is gone13:13
PigDudei don’t understand, i never have this issue when suspending a linux host OS13:13
PigDude(meaning, not a VM)13:13
PigDudei’ve also never had this issue with a VM before. i just wanted to find out why ntpd was crashing13:14
AlexPortableUsing xinput_calibrator can't help me either13:14
ikoniaPigDude: because time dies13:15
PigDudewas hoping for some other info ... man ntp says I can pass -l $log_path, so I guess I can patch init.d/ntp ... but i expected this to be logged somewhere. your explanation also doesn't make sense ikonia, like i pointed out, i've never had this issue when suspending a Linux OS before, physical or virtual13:17
ikoniawhy would -l help ?13:17
PigDudebecause it would allow me to specify a log file location, being unable to find any log now, or relevant messages in dmesg, syslog, etc.13:18
PigDudewhy *wouldn't* it help?13:18
ikoniawhat has the log file got to do with anything ?13:18
PigDudeare you trolling me?13:18
ikoniano13:18
PigDudewell can you offer some useful advice?13:18

PigDudewell i'd appreciate some real help13:19
cfhowlettPigDude, drop the attitude please13:19
ikoniaI can offer me detail if you explain where you are in debugging13:19
ikoniaso you understand why the error is actually erroring right ?13:19
MrAristo"it's just high level" - Obviously that didn't help him, so it's not useful.13:19
ikoniathe question was "why do I get this error"13:20
PigDudeno it wasn't!13:20
ikoniathe answer is "because time/ntp is dead"13:20
PigDudethe question was *how do i investigate this*.13:20
PigDudecolored with an assumption that logfiles would be the answer13:20
ikoniaok - so you understand why you are getting the actual error right ?13:20

TheNumbdigitsm: It's *your* server after all ;-)13:22
TheNumbdigitsm: everything will work just fine.13:22
TheNumbIt's just a timezone.13:23
PigDudedigitsm: i set to the host timezone or UTC. you can export TZ in your bashrc for local timezone, etc.13:23
digitsmTheNumb, I am not sure whether a different timezone than your geographical timezone can make a problem or not?13:24
digitsmFor example problems in SSL, some communications, etc.13:24
mcphaildigitsm: the timezone is different, but the _time_ is the same. Set it to what suits you best and be heppy. Everything will be fine13:25
digitsmmcphail, Hmmm. Thanks13:25
mcphaildigitsm: if the server was only being used by you, you'll probably prefer your own timezone. If it is being shared by your European colleagues, you can set to UTC or have a fight :)13:26

nothingmuchrandom pool message shows up a bit after that) and switching with ctrl-alt-f1 etc just puts escape sequences on the screen. recovery mode fails in the same way, never getting past that point either14:26

Elysiawell, nearly every programming language allows you to call command line (os) functions and interact with them in your own way.14:30
Elysiabut your question is overly vague and it need not be.  I suggest you just ask what you'd like to achieve.14:30
nothingmuchit depends on the task at hand… python, perl, ruby, etc are more general purpose programming languages, all of which have numerous libraries for calling out to external commands, and doing much more complicated interprocess communication etc… shell scripting is optimized for that task in the language itself14:31
nothingmuchyou can also write shell scripts that use python or any other languages, or write programs in those languages that use shell scripts14:31

The only indication that ALSA is finding something is that when I turn the volume on the microphone setting down, the noise that comes with the splitter decreases (this is not really a problem its a bit of loose connection). I have no problems with hearing what is coming15:16

hremdthere is some issue with lubuntu root pass does not work in terminal  and when I want to install extra language support via settings it says it cant do it and adviced sudo apt-get install -f15:32
hremdwhats the easiest way to reset user sudo pass15:32
Bluekingforgot passwd ?15:33
k1lhremd: sudo pass is the same as user pass15:33
hremdkll yes however user claims she changed it via GUI15:33
hremdnow it works via logon in terminal no15:34
k1lthen its still the same for her when she wants to use sudo15:34
sh0tHI guys can anyone tell me what's wrong with this very simple Makefile: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11227062/ i get Makefile:9: *** missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8 spaces?).  Stop.15:34
sh0t when i try to make15:34
flaburganhi guys, just log in on the wiki.ubuntu.com for the first time, looks like I can't edit this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/diaspora15:34
hremdkll I have tried it I can login with it15:34
hremdhowever sudo does not work15:34
hremdso perhaps simply reset it somehow without reinstall15:35
k1lthere is no root password. its always the users password. only thing is the user needs permission to use sudo15:35
hremdkll correct15:35
hremdand that same pass does not work in terminal when use sudo there15:35
k1lis she in the sudo group?15:35
mcphailsh0t: The error message tells you your problems...15:36
hremdkll sudo:x:27:niina15:37
hremdseems like it15:37
mcphailsh0t: Makefiles are specific about whitespace - the "indents" for the recipes have to be tabs instead of spaces15:37
Midoshi27I have an ubuntu web server and I just checked auth.log... I'm getting mutliple failed attempts for login from some unknown ip address on random ports for ssh2. I looked up the IP address... some China Telecom Jiangsu company. I'll be blocking them with iptables but is there more I should do to prevent them from even attempting to crack into my server?15:37

hremdkll any more ideas?15:38

mcphailsh0t: change the spaces to tabs. Make sure your editor doesn't cheat and switch them back to spaces15:39
SchrodingersScatMidoshi27: maybe if you host enough freedom, you will get banned on great firewall, solves problem on their end?15:39
Midoshi27ubottu: thanks robot!15:40
flaburgananyone to explain me how the wiki works?15:40
mcphailsh0t: btw, that is a fairly useless makefile. It won't detect and rebuild an individual component when a single source file changes. You'd have been as well just writing a shell script15:40
flaburganwho has write permission on wiki.ubuntu.com/diaspora?15:40
hremdkll maybe visudo is corrupt_15:40
pbxMidoshi27, sounds like you're doing the right things.  block ip ranges if the failed attempts annoy you. for hardening, you could turn off password auth and just use ssh keys. e.g. https://www.debian-administration.org/article/530/SSH_with_authentication_key_instead_of_password15:40

Brayden5234Hello15:41
k1lhremd: well. now it depends what the user did there.15:41
Brayden5234I have a support question.15:41
mcphailsh0t: a lot of editors do stupid things like converting tabs to spaces. Causes endless frustration15:41
reetbearBrayden5234: ask and see15:42
Brayden5234Is it possible to run Ubuntu off of a 3tb external hard drive? But like when you make changes or download something when you are running ubuntu it saves if you shutdown the computer?15:42
mcphailsh0t: (of course, the real problem is "make" being specific about whitespace. That was always a bad design)15:42
hremdkll imo she used gui to change user pass15:42
hremdand it backfired15:42
=== Dreaman is now known as CrackerJack
al2o3-crBrayden5234: sure15:42
hremdI cant open visudo as it needs sudo lol15:43
Brayden5234How?15:43
hremdmaybe boot for live cd and change visudo from there?=15:43
mcphailBrayden5234: I was just reading a blog from popey explaining this process...15:43
hremdfrom15:43
k1l!password | hremd15:43
ubottuhremd: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords15:43
hremdkll password does not work :D15:43
Brayden5234Oh really mcphai? Can you give me the link please? Thank you.15:44
popeyBrayden5234: yeah, you can do that - as mcphail says http://popey.com/blog/2015/03/25/making-a-portable-persistent-ubuntu-usb-stick/15:44
k1lhremd: afaik changing the password in gui works. dont know what was done or where it failed.15:44

Brayden5234Thank you guys so much :D15:44

reetbearBrayden5234: helpful15:45
Brayden5234So when I install Java or install a game on the ubuntu running off the hard drive and I turn off the computer and turn it back on it will save?15:45
mcphailBrayden5234: yes15:45
hremdkll ty15:45
hremdits clear now15:45
sh0tyeah mcphail it seems to be an issue as i keep reading15:45
Brayden5234Awesome just what I was looking for :D15:45
sh0tis cmake something better?15:45
mcphailsh0t: cmake isn't a replacemant for make. It replaces autotools. You still use make at the end15:46
reetbearBrayden5234: mcphail he's running a hard drive not a thumb drive15:46
mcphailreetbear: that doesn't change anything15:46
sh0tok mcphail thanks i still have to read a lot about these tools15:46
sh0tthanksa gain.15:47
b4tm4nis there a difference between mkfs /dev/sdb and mkfs /dev/sdb115:47
Brayden5234Yeah I need to put it on a 3.0 USB 3TB external harddrive15:47
mcphailsh0t: worthwhile learning how to write a proper makefile. It makes life a lot easier. And I'd recommend the autotools book (?by caldicott) if you want to learn how to automate the process15:47
mcphailsh0t: john calcote, not caldicott15:48
mcphailsh0t: http://www.nostarch.com/autotools.htm15:49
reetbearBrayden5234: set bios or efi to boot from that drive. Install normal to that drive15:49

Brayden5234Alright thank you k1l sorry for getting off-topic.15:56
Brayden5234Alright so I must have Ubuntu or a linux OS to do what I said above?15:58
Brayden5234The guide here: http://popey.com/blog/2015/03/25/making-a-portable-persistent-ubuntu-usb-stick/      is a guide for linux. What about windows?15:58

mcphailBrayden5234: you can try installing onto the USB drive directly from an install USB stick16:00
Brayden5234mcphail what? I didn't follow that sorry.16:01
k1lPanV: what ubuntu are you on? "lsb_release -d"16:01
PanV14.0416:01
daftykinsBrayden5234: do you also have a flash drive spare? you can boot that and install to this external HDD.16:01
PanVLts16:01
PanV14.04.216:01
ki7mtWindows installed on USB stick? Don't think that is possible (may be wrong), even if it were, would be old-dog slow16:01
mcphailBrayden5234: download ubuntu, put the installer on a USB stick, reboot into the installer and choose to install onto your external USB drive. It often works, but sometimes needs some tweaking16:01
Brayden5234ooohhhhhhh that is brilliant daftykins! Does it really work though?16:01
PanVki7mt, it is possible, since it is on a drive.16:02
k1lPanV: so what package do you want to install now?16:02
daftykinsBrayden5234: well i'm suggesting installing properly, not any of this persistence rubbish16:02
ki7mtHe said Stick .. not drive16:02
youdmaniwBrayden5234: your drive will appear as a internal drive16:02

cowbaconyou can also do it in virtualbox. attach usb hdd to vm. install to the usbhdd16:02

youdmaniwjost: one word. SYSTEMD16:03
k1lPanV: its only v4 in that ppa for 14.0416:03
Brayden5234Yeah I want to do it with ubuntu not windows16:03

EriC^^Brayden5234: do you currently have ubuntu installed?16:03
PanVThanks16:03
jostyoudmaniw: ok... how to fix it?16:03
daftykinsBrayden5234: yes so put it on a flash drive first.16:03
reisioBrayden5234: that you can plug into random boxes?16:03
Brayden5234No I have windows 816:03
PanVBrayden5234, you can install I think Ubuntu on any drive.16:03
Brayden5234So put ubuntu with unetbootin on a flash drive. Boot my PC with that then plugin my harddrive and install ubuntu on to it?16:04
daftykinsdon't use unetbootin, use UUI from pendrivelinux.com16:04
Brayden5234Oh alright16:04
PanVBrayden5234, use UNetBootIn, I did this on Windows 8. Then launched the USB Stick, chose "Try Ubuntu without installing" and in the desktop there is an icon16:04
Brayden5234Why?16:04
PanVdaftykins, in windows 8 it is better16:04
PanVI believe it is a better solution.16:05
Guest8000If I have 3 servers and I wish them to have the same date & time down to microseconds, is ntpdate the way to do it?16:05
daftykinsBrayden5234: yep, then boot "try ubuntu" and come on webchat from here - because you'll need to make two critical changes to make this work properly and not mess with your Windows install16:05
daftykinsPanV: "it" ?16:05
daftykinsunetbootin is not better than UUI :)16:05
PanV? UNetBootIn16:05
PanVthan pendrivers16:05
Brayden5234Alright will do. Be back on here later16:05
PanVWell, it worked fo rm16:05
BluesKajjost,  "The synchronous pptp option is NOT activated" is there an option to activate that?16:05
PanVfor me better16:05
youdmaniwJost all scripts are handled by systemd now, not upstart. Subunit in version 15.04 just threw it in without changing the scripts16:05
daftykinsPanV: so you're claiming you used both programs and UUI caused trouble?16:05
PanVI claim I used Pendrivers.16:06

youdmaniwJost all scripts are handled by systemd now, not upstart. UBUNTU version 15.04 just threw it in without changing the scripts16:06
PanVI just tell my opinion, I dont make a war.16:06
PanVIf you want use Pendrivers, perhaps the problem was..16:07
PanVoh s* the problem was me.16:07

jKaideNhey guys, just setting up Ubuntu 14.04, i don't have physical access to the server, so i had to install the OS remotely via cpanel and they had the OS for ubuntu16:41
jKaideNbut I'm not sure if it's the latest version, should i be doing a do-release-upgrade16:41
jKaideN?16:41
omgitsmitjKaideN: would it harm anything if you did?16:41
OerHeks14.04 is the latest LTS.16:41
reisiowell, the real question is would you have to spend time/money you don't have to undo it if it broke16:41
jKaideNOerHeks, there's like 14.04.2 ?16:42
omgitsmit+1 reisio16:42
OerHeksjKaideN, yes, update brings you to 14.04.216:42
omgitsmit"If it aint broke, upgrade it"16:42
reisionot sure I'd bother, though16:42
reisioif you're using cpanel, your whole system is already that much less secure/unreliable16:42
* reisio shrugs16:42
omgitsmitreisio: eh, that's arguable16:42
jKaideNreisio, it's not as if everything is pre-configured. It's just an ISO they they hold16:43
turbo_Fuck you canonical Buguntu16:43
omgitsmitjKaideN: reisio: tin foil hat me says "Do i trust this ISO?"16:44
jKaideNomgitsmit, how else can I install it then?16:45
omgitsmitjKaideN: if they give you shell access to kvm, i would just roll my own ubuntu install.16:45

reisioa webUI has root access to your system16:46
reisiothis webUI did not come from a .deb16:46
jKaideNomgitsmit, its ILO2 access. How can i prompt my own/custom ISO through this ?16:47
omgitsmitreisio: my cpanel does not have root, it only conrtols physical stuff like power management and networking16:47
omgitsmitjKaideN: you may have to contact them first16:47
reisioomgitsmit: which it does by having root16:47
omgitsmitreisio: root to the host system, but not to the guest vm16:48
jayjoomgitsmit: what is an X-server? What are the search terms to read up on this? Is it jsut an apt-get...? I have a private machine so I can put what I need on it to get matplotlib running16:48
jKaideNomgitsmit, oh is it Virtual Media ?16:48

reisiothat explains cpanel16:48
Piciomgitsmit: you only have access to cpanel? or do you have real cli access?16:50
omgitsmitPici: shell access16:51
omgitsmitcpanel only controls physical power connections, not hypervisor or system operations16:51
omgitsmiti thought it would be more "secure" that way16:51
Piciomgitsmit: I got confused who was asking what somewhere, nevermind me ;)16:52

jKaideNPici, what ?16:53
PicijKaideN: I'm just being terrible at irc today.  Sorry.16:53
Picijayjo: How are you trying to install matplotlib?16:53
jayjoI originally did it unsuccessfully via pip, now I used apt-get install python-matplotlib and it installed properly16:55
Picijayjo: okay16:55
jayjobut matplotlib still wants to diplay the graphics16:56
jKaideNguys anyone have experience with ILO2 (HP Integrated Lights-Out 2) ?16:57
PicijKaideN: you may want to ask in #ubuntu-server16:57
jKaideNta16:57
jayjoit's not an installation issue I don't believe, it requires something to write graphics when it can't display and it's X1116:57

nemithI can't seem to figure out how to map the caps lock key to ctrl on 15.04.  Any clues?17:02
wafflejocknemith, haven't tried 15.04 yet but you may want to check out xbindkeys I've used it for some key mapping stuff before17:03

Brayden5234Any thoughts on my problem/idea?17:08
reisiowhich'n?17:08
wafflejockBrayden5234, no worries, no replies came in so far17:08
Brayden5234Oh alright17:09
wafflejockreisio, Brayden5234 is trying to install via a USB live image to an external USB drive17:09
nemithwafflejock: i though so17:09
wafflejockif I understood correct, but isn't seeing the external17:09
nemithlet me try again17:09
Brayden5234Yeah, so basically.... I am right now running Ubuntu 15.05 off of try ubuntu and trying to click the install icon on the desktop and install ubuntu to an external hard drive17:10
wafflejockBrayden5234, I can maybe help with checking your devices that are hooked up and checking if the external is mounted or if we can mount it manually, but I'm not familiar with the process for installing to an external drive17:10
al2o3-crBrayden5234: why don't you just install ubuntu fully on the external hd17:10
Brayden5234Thats what I am trying to do.17:10
Brayden5234I do not know how though.17:11
nemithwafflejock: yeah that doesn't work for whatever reason17:11
al2o3-crBrayden5234: the same way you would an internal one17:11
al2o3-crjust make sure you install grub to the external drive17:11
Brayden5234Oh really? So just choose the external hard drive and install?17:11
al2o3-crBrayden5234: yeah17:11
Brayden5234How do I do that?17:11
=== rodrigosavian is now known as rodrigosav

al2o3-crBrayden5234: sudo fdisk -l # check to see what your ext drive is17:12
OerHeksBrayden5234, start live session, mount that hdd, and start install ?17:12
al2o3-crBrayden5234: the installer will do that17:12
wafflejocknemith, what does this show setxkbmap -query ?17:13
Brayden5234So that is it? Basically click the install ubuntu icon on the desktop and choose to install it on the external?17:13
wafflejocknemith, there's some more details on xkb here https://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/769644-hacking-your-linux-keyboard-with-xkb and a link in there for xmodmap think thats the other one I was thinking of earlier17:13
reisioBrayden5234: should ask you where you want to install grub17:13
al2o3-crBrayden5234: yeah but make sure you pick the external one17:13
Brayden5234Alright. Awesome thanks guys :D17:14
Brayden5234Also one more question? What IRC program on Ubuntu do you guys use?17:14
reisioworst case, you re-boot the live OS and fix it17:14

jnxdhow do I do that?18:18
daftykins!efi | jnxd see here for the difference between legacy and EFI boot18:18

daftykinsBrayden5234: yes you need to set up some partitions on that disk - is it blank right now? nothing on it you need to keep?18:18
Brayden5234Yeah it is formatted blank. What now?18:19
daftykinsBrayden5234: the ubuntu installer has an option of 'use entire disk' or 'something else' - which did you pick?18:19

daftykinshzut: as i already asked, what do you want it for?18:19
=== gr33n7007h is now known as al2o3-cr
Brayden5234That is for the computers hard drive, that is not an option for an external hard drive18:19
daftykinsBrayden5234: quit the installer, run it again and see if you get to the 'something else' option so you can partition manually.18:20

daftykinsBrayden5234: so how big is this disk? do you want some space for ubuntu and some other space for storage that Windows can access too, or?18:21
Brayden5234No just 100% ubuntu. And it is 3TB18:21
daftykinsok because that's a lot of space18:22
Brayden5234Haha yeah it is18:22
daftykinsBrayden5234: so the window should show /dev/sda and /dev/sdb yes?18:22

Brayden5234How do I do that?18:23
Brayden5234Yes I can daftykins18:23
daftykinsor better yet a new partition table on the disk to start with18:23
EriC^^Brayden5234: open gparted > create new partition table, gpt or something along those lines18:23
daftykinswhich is what will offer the GPT format as EriC^^ suggests18:23
Brayden5234Yes it says new partition table18:23
EriC^^try to see if the installer can do that first as daftykins said18:23
hzutI want to say protocol P2P and no emule for piracy using, ok?18:24

Brayden5234I am confused what?18:31
daftykinsthere are two modes of booting ubuntu installation media, legacy and EFI18:31
daftykinssee the above link to say which one you did18:31
EriC^^Brayden5234: open a terminal and type ls -l /sys/firmware/efi18:32

Happzzdaftykins sec18:33
Brayden5234alright18:33

Brayden5234Please correct this from the partitioning menu.18:33
Brayden5234It is giving me that error when I try to install18:34

daftykinskokut: you're already receiving help18:42
mcphailxAndreLopesx: You cant just use "scriptname" as a command, anyway. By default, the current directory is not in your user's $PATH so the shell will not see the script in that directory. Instead, use "./scriptname"18:42

Brayden5234I would say Ubuntu is the best IMOP18:52
mcphailpsycomp: When you switch to Linux you have the freedom to try them all. Most people spend a few eeks switching between distros and desktops to see what suits them. The choice can be overwhelming18:53
psycompmcphail: To be honest I wouldn't have the time to spend too much time worrying about that, that's why I thought Ubuntu would be a safe bet..18:54
mcphailpsycomp: standard Ubuntu has become the Linux benchmark. It is an excellent choice18:54

Brayden5234I have only transfered a few movies on it before. No heavy use.19:16
mcphailBrayden5234: you are _sure_ it is getting power to spin?19:16
zorak8how can i configure the power options to only turn off the screen when is closed?19:16
zorak8with the cli19:16
Brayden5234Yeah the hard drive is spinning19:16
daftykinsblakwire: so are you installing from a DVD, or the mounted ISO?19:16
blakwiredaftykins : I am installing from a mounted iso, I mean I also burned the iso file on an actuall dvd and it works fine19:17
blakwireso the iso is fine19:17
ioriaBrayden5234, i don't know your issue, but when i did it turned out that i could only install on 1 primary partition disk, and not a partitioned one. don't know why19:17
blakwireis there a way to help with this issue?19:17
mcphailBrayden5234: there is spinning and there is spinning properly. Check/replace both wires (USB and power)19:18
daftykinsblakwire: alright. delete and recreate your VM19:18
blakwiredaftykins : did that a million times19:18
blakwirealready19:18
daftykinsa million and one time lucky then19:18
blakwiredaftykins : I am kind of sensing you are trying to mock me in someway... is that true?19:19
daftykinsno it's called light hearted humour, it's used to cope with the tough tasks of sysadmins lives day to day19:19
blakwireoh it is painful and distressing while I am trying to solve an actual issue19:20
AdasserYeah, not sure though...19:20
daftykinsblakwire: i think that's a bit of a dramatisation. further help can be had in #vbox19:21
blakwireit does not feel like light hearted humor over here, btw I didn't know we could horse around, and tell jokes on this channel... shall I start?19:21
ioriakokut you have to be sure that openssh-server is installed on your other machines19:21
daftykinsblakwire: goodbye then19:21
blakwire:) ok...19:21
blakwireyou take care19:21
kokutioria: i just managed to do it but it was extremely slow so i'm going to use a usb stick19:22
ioriaBrayden5234, then do 'Connect to server'19:22
ioriaBrayden5234, it's slow ?19:22
ioriasorry19:22
ioriakokut it's slow ?19:22
zorak8how can i configure the power options to only turn off the screen when is closed with the cli?19:22
kokutioria: yea, now i'm compressing the files to put them in the pendrive but it's stuck in the middle of the operation like something went wrong... could it have a permissions issue?19:23
mcphailzorak8: not sure the CLI does that by default, but I might be wrong. Is your BIOS sending a message to suspend when the lid is closed?19:24
ioriakokut ssh is more  practicable19:24
Brayden5234I had the external hard drive plugged into an extension cord so it is working now plugged into the wall lol.19:24
ioriakokut samba is better19:24
mcphailBrayden5234: thought so!19:25
Brayden5234Haha how did you know?!19:25
mcphailBrayden5234: many years of problems with external USB drives. Power is always the problem19:25

NGuerrerowrong chat19:26
ioriamcphail, true, i lost one week to understand that i needed a double usb cable19:26
Brayden5234Haha19:26
Guest93011Though when I run things like hp-check It continues??19:26
mcphailYes - the problem is the controller doesn't need much power and appears to work correctly. But when the disk needs to spin for a while it all goes horribly wrong19:27
Brayden5234Damn managed to format it partition it as ext4 and now it is saying Input/output error during read on /dev/sdd19:27
ioriaBrayden5234, but it's related to i/o error not with the failed installation, i'm afraid19:28
Brayden5234What does that mean?19:28
Ben64Brayden5234: usually a bad drive19:28
mcphailBrayden5234: your probably still needing power. Is your USB connection going through a powered hub?19:28
Brayden5234What?! Bad drive?19:28
Brayden5234No the hard drive is plugged into the desktop directly19:29
Ben64thats usually what io error means19:29
ioriaBrayden5234, if i may, save what you have on that drive and wipe it19:29
Brayden5234I want to wipe it. Nothing is on it19:29
ioriaBrayden5234, movies ?19:30
Brayden5234Nope nothing19:30
AvengerLivesBrayden5234: Go for it then.  Also once you have conduct a SMART sacn to determine the health19:30
Brayden5234I already formatted it19:30
mcphailBrayden5234: in my experice it boils down to 3 things (in this order): 1) bad power, 2) bad cables, 3) bad disk19:30

noveltyHi. im fairly new to ubuntu and linux and am trying to install digikam on 14.04 LTS server. This question may be more general than to just this application... I managed to install the package on the command line. Do I need to install a GUI on ubuntu for it to run or does the install integrate the necessary parts required to operate?19:34
Brayden5234I did not mean for that to happen.. I thought it would put it in a paragraph19:34
Brayden5234http://pastebin.com/0hRJPdhk19:34
OerHeksnovelty, yes, you need a gui.19:35
Brayden5234What does that mean, thats what terminal said when I typed that sudo parted -l19:35
kokutfor some reason i'm randomly losing internet access in my desktop connected via usb stick en tho it's connected to the network, is there anything i can try?19:35
ioriaBrayden5234,  it's sdd  your external ?19:36
noveltythanks OerHekx. I installed LXDE-CORE this morning. but haven't had a chance to experiment much since then. Will that suffice or do specific programs need components from specific GUI?19:36
Brayden5234Yes sdd is external19:36
ioriaBrayden5234,  and you cannot wipe it from live ?19:37
daftykinsBrayden5234: so again, fire up gparted and partition that disk as GPT and create some partitions :)19:37
OerHeksnovelty, that might work yes19:37
Brayden5234Gparted isnt showing the hard drive anymore19:38

noveltyOerHeks I think I eventually would like to try and use the individual program from an offsite machine running OS X via ssh forwarding and X11 without installing it. From what I've read, this sounds feasible. Is this possible/the best method to do this?19:42
OerHeksnovelty, ssh -X user@<ip> -p Mypassword19:43
ioriaBrayden5234,  can you change port ?19:45
blakwirecan someone give a list of all the options available for "clocksource=" option of the bootloader ??19:49

OerHeksblakwire, i know 2 of them, clocksource hpet or acpi_pm19:53
ruviaro 19:53
noveltyOerHeks, cool. That's what I read. Thanks for confirming. Now for a really basic questions... do I need a display manager such as gdm or kdm to run LXDE?19:53
OerHeksnovelty, gdm and kdm are old, current is lightdm19:54
noveltyOerHeks, good to know. I will definitely need this to run everything, including the X11 interface offsite?19:55
OerHeksnovelty, if you want to run digikam, i guess so19:56
noveltyOerHeks, I'll give that a try. thanks19:57
b4tm4nnormally, i use uid and gid options in fstab to auto mount a file system. however, ext4 does not support this.  What is the best way to provide a user with permission?19:58
daftykinsb4tm4n: set them on the file system19:59
b4tm4ndaftykins, how do you do that?19:59
daftykinsor just mount as "auto,user" options19:59
daftykinssudo chown user: /path/on/mounted/ext4/19:59
b4tm4ndaftykins, oh, so just chown after the mount?20:00
daftykinsyip20:00
b4tm4ndaftykins, the mount options are confusing to me so i've just been using defaults.  if i use the "user" option that implies noexec.  is defaults ok?20:01
jaapioI found that some function keys on my keyboard don't work. they are not reported xev?20:01
daftykinsb4tm4n: see how you get on. things can be changed20:02

tatohi20:28
tatoim a new user20:29
VlanXEriC^^ it means that it was already inside the dvd reader when ive swapped on the machine. Of course ubuntu 14.04 is still on the ssd but i probably have messed up the grub i guess20:29
niklas_eI am helping a friend who has problem with ubuntu. It is some problem updateing.20:29
EriC^^VlanX: no, just remove it from the dvd, or set the dvd's boot priority to be lower20:30
EriC^^niklas_e: what's the problem?20:30
DexterFhi. if I copy firmware to /lib/firmware, will it stay or would any upgrades overwrite/delete them, say kernel upgrades or the like?20:30
VlanXEric^^ unfortunately the dvd is already out. It must have wrote stuff to the mbr or something like that. Is there a guide on how to recover it?20:32

yuciyuarsudo apt-get upgrade, upgrades distro or repo?20:41
k1lyuciyuar: neither20:42
yuciyuarso?20:42
EriC^^yuciyuar: it upgrades the packages that are installed20:42
k1lyuciyuar: on ubuntu it just upgrades packages20:42
EriC^^yuciyuar: without the kernel, and some others maybe20:42
bazhangyuciyuar, perhaps you meant dist-upgrade20:42
yuciyuari mean if it will upgrade from 12.04 to 12.04.x its bad for me20:42
k1lyuciyuar: why is it bad?20:43
yuciyuarmy ati card driver, supporting up to 12.04.120:43
k1lyuciyuar: 12.04.2 is "just" a pointrelease. think of it like a servicepack from windows. its a summarized updates state.20:43
k1lyuciyuar: why exactly? because of the kernel? you can stick to the main kernel version it was shipped with20:44
yuciyuark1l, yes, kernel i guess20:44
yuciyuarim new to linux, and dunno settings deeply20:45
k1lyuciyuar: to install updates you need to run the apt-get update commmand to get the updated package list from the servers. but the apt-get upgrade program will update the packages on your system then. but it will not change the kernel version20:46
DexterFyuciyuar: what ati card is that? (by the way, technically should be an AMD card unless it is really, really old)20:46
Asmodeemy ati card is ati and is only 8 years20:47
yuciyuark1l, i tried, and it updated to 12.04 to 12.04.5 with upgrade20:47
k1lyuciyuar: yes. that is correct.20:48
k1lyuciyuar: so does the card stil work?20:48
yuciyuarDexterF, ati mobility radeon hd457020:48
yuciyuarit works with 12.0420:48
DexterFshould be perfectly supported by the open drivers in any recent or semi-recent linux.20:49
k1lyuciyuar: you said you updated your 12.04 which made it 12.04.5 which is actually as intended20:49
leonardo__hello20:49
=== neorpehus is now known as neorpheus
yuciyuarDexterF, open source drivers work well, but i cant tweak such as contrast settings20:50
yuciyuarand its really necessary for my lcd to reduce contrast20:50
neorpheushello there, anyone know  where i might find some info about relocating programs from the package manager to another partition/hdd? im not entirly sure what im looking for hence my google foo is failing20:51
DexterFyuciyuar: and in .5 the binary ati/amd driver does not support that chip anymore?20:51
yuciyuari can only tweak contrast with amdccc20:51
k1lyuciyuar: so does that card work after you upgraded the 12.04 install: yes or no?20:51
yuciyuarDexterF, yes, up to 12.04.120:51
DexterFyuciyuar: xcalib --contrast [percentage] -- alter20:52
DexterFabsolutely can be done, might not be as gui-click-slider as amdccc, given20:53
k1lyuciyuar: so did you try it?20:53
DexterFwelcome to the console :)20:53
yuciyuark1l, try what20:53
k1lyuciyuar: you said you updated your 12.04 install. is that right?20:53
k1l(so it became a 12.04.5, which is intended)20:54
yuciyuaryeap  i did20:54
k1lso you actually have a 12.04.5 now?20:54
yuciyuarbut i format and install again to 12.0420:54
k1lwhat is "lsb_release -d" and "uname -a" then?20:54
guest2121212hey daftykins^, you here?20:55
neorpheusi guess im asking if there is some way to set up a /usr /bin /etc and what not on /dev/sda2 instead of the default locations on /dev/sda1 which ubuntu created during install20:55
guest2121212i left my laptop sitting overnight and when i just checked it, it seems to have finished installing the desktop, but still sitting at the command line thing where i typed the commands to install the desktop last night20:55
yuciyuark1l, Description:Ubuntu 12.04 LTS20:55
guest2121212is it safe to reboot the system or should i put in another command?20:55
k1lyuciyuar: you cant stay on 12.04 without running updates. actually your system will have security issues that a 9 year old can use.20:55
k1lyuciyuar: so what was the issue on 12.04.5?20:56
k1lyuciyuar: did it change the kernel?20:56
guest2121212EriC^^: ^ are you here as well? or Bashing-om ^ ?20:57
EriC^^guest2121212: what's up?20:57
guest2121212i think the desktop finished installign (its me again), im sitting back at that command line area where i had input the command previously, i just want to make sure i can reboot and dont have to input any other commands first20:58
k1lyuciyuar: i still try to get to know what the issue is. besides "amd says only up to 12.04.1" because that is not really a technical reason. the .1 , .2 ,.3 .... releases are just servicepacks states. they only have a new kernel if you make a clean install with them or manually change the kernel20:58
DexterFwill ubuntu on a fresh install detect SSD by itself and apply trim@boot time, noatime n fstab and such itself?20:58
yuciyuark1ll, i'll give link20:59
k1lDexterF: iirc it will make a cron trim thingy once a week. yes20:59
bekksDexterF: Trim will be applied, noatime will not be applied.20:59
EriC^^guest2121212: yeah you should be able to reboot21:00
k1lyuciyuar: i dont mind what amd/ati says. i want to hear what it was when you tested the upgrade (which is just an update actually).21:00
guest2121212ok, just like, turning the thing off and on with the power button, right? no need to reboot via command?21:01
EriC^^guest2121212: no, don't do that21:01
b00b00hello21:01
Bashing-omguest2121212: I just arrived, playing catchup .. OK, booting to a terminal, at the terminal what results ' sudo service lightdm start ' ?21:01
EriC^^guest2121212: always reboot using the menu or sudo reboot21:02
guest2121212oh man21:02
guest2121212that explaisn so much21:02
guest2121212ok so i should just go hit sudo reset on it now right?21:02
EriC^^sudo reboot, it won't harm, let it boot into the new kernel21:02
EriC^^you did type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade as daftykins suggested, right?21:03
yuciyuark1l, i used update manager, and click update as i remember21:03
b00b00i am trying to create a script to install nagios as auto install, how can i do it so nagios will receive postfix, admin pass and so on needed details when installing from within the script? thanks21:03
Bashing-omguest2121212: Will not hurt to 'sudo shutdown -r now ' and see what results . A hard reboot from button is a bad bad thing ! as it leaves files open and liable to file system corruption .21:03
guest2121212ok, will do21:04
yuciyuar even i dont remember i used upgrade21:04
Pathfinderb00b00: Lol...wanted to ask the exact same thing21:04
b00b00Pathfinder: good, lets create a channel dedicated for that :)21:04
k1lyuciyuar: like i explained. that apt-get upgrade command is actually doing an update. and you need to do that to get security updates.21:04
k1lyuciyuar: so i still dont know why you dont want to run that updates besides someone saying its only supported up to 12.04.1. which technically is wrong without any further reason21:05
guest2121212haha, so21:05
guest2121212remember that black screen with the blinking cursor? its back21:05
EriC^^guest2121212: boot using nomodeset21:06
yuciyuark1l, the reason is that. nothing more; Automated installer and Display Drivers for Xorg 6.9 to Xserver 1.12 and Kernel version up to 3.421:06
=== jeremy_ is now known as Guest64842
k1lyuciyuar: see this picture: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Kernel.2BAC8-Support.A12.04.x_Ubuntu_Kernel_Support that are the available kernel versions. but you dont need to upgrade to 3.13. you still can run with 3.221:06
k1lyuciyuar: see above.21:07
guest2121212i'll try to, like i said last night, the black screen shows up whenever i turn the thing on, im trying to maybe get to grub by a boot device21:07
guest2121212what was the command again21:07
EriC^^hold shift to get grub21:07
wafflejockguest2121212, tap shift to see the grub boot menu if you aren't already getting to it, e to edit, add nomodeset where you see quiet or nosplash, x to boot21:07
EriC^^press e, add nomodeset21:08
guest2121212ok so the only boot option i can get is the usb21:08
guest2121212which21:08
guest2121212wait a minute21:08
yuciyuark1l, u're right, if i can disable updating kernel and xorg properly, i will try21:08
guest2121212I'M AT MY DESKTOP21:08
Pathfinderb00b00: Haha..cool..lol..what would the name even be ... :o !!!21:09

guest2121212i cant believe its finally fixed21:10
k1lyuciyuar: read the page i linked: "Anyone running an original Precise stack will NOT be automatically updated to the new Trusty HWE stack. Users can electively choose to install the Trusty enablement stack meta package if they wish to do so."21:10
yuciyuark1l, right, i didnt choose, but anyway it updated to 12.04.0521:11
yuciyuar:d21:11
k1lyuciyuar: so you did that upgrade manually last time. if you have a 12.04 or 12.04.1 install it will stay on the "old" kernel and x stack.21:11
k1lyuciyuar: its is called 12.04.5 every time21:11
yuciyuarand i didnt know how to manually choosing and didnt checked what it make update21:11
k1lyuciyuar: its not naming the kernel or x stack. dont mix that21:12
Bashing-omyuciyuar: Background: Existing restricted drivers from AMD won't work either, because they require X-server v1.12 and Ubuntu 12.04.2 ++ uses X-server v1.13 ; That's because, starting with Ubuntu 12.04.2, the X-server version was updated to a newer version that is now incompatible with the HD 2x/3x/4x series AMD cards. Terminal command ' X -version ' to determine the x-server version.21:12
k1lyuciyuar: every 12.04 install will be named 12.04.5 now. no matter if the old kernel or the new kernel is used.21:12
yuciyuarBashing-om, right21:13
yuciyuark1l, i get you. i'll try21:14
yuciyuarin fact, i dont really need 12.04 if i can tweak lcd contrast via an open source driver21:15
yuciyuarthe reason why i use this version is, amdccc work and i can tweak lcd contrast with it21:16
k1lyuciyuar: not running the updates is not an option because you will not have security updates like shellstorm or heartbleed then.21:16
OerHeksyuciyuar, twesk contrast on the lcdmonitor itself?21:16
yuciyuarbtw, i rly need for twak contrast, not brightness setting, coz my lcd making humming noise if i reduce via brightness21:17
yuciyuarOerHeks, i use laptop and it doesnt have any contrast button21:18
OerHeksoh i c21:18

docmur_2The live cd version is the same, should I move from live 12.04 to live 14.0421:37
daftykinsnah just hoping they matched closely21:37
Bashing-omyuciyuar: What you can do is install 12.04.1 from: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04.1/ . Do Not enable the HardWare Enablement stack, update and upgrade as nornal, you will remain on the supported Xserver version . ( I too fall into that catagory, so I do know ) .21:37

kokutanyways i need to connect via ftp to the web server from outside the network too so22:07
kokuttgm4883: ubuntu in both yea22:07
tgm4883kokut: why not use scp?22:08
daftykinskokut: yes, so SSH + SCP22:08
tgm4883SFTP FTW22:08
k1lkokut: ssh gives sftp login. but sshfs is slower on network due to overheat. easiest would be samba which is somewhat faster. fastest is nfs.22:08
kokutmight give it a try, now i need to find a way to configure ftp like you use with hosting providers and stuff22:08
daftykinssomeone suggested kokut browse the second system via nautilus with SFTP earlier, but was unable to help get it working i believe22:08
OerHeksfilezilla works great to connect to a ftp-service22:09

daftykinsluisalonsocn: and what situation leads you to consider it's overheating / getting too hot? just physical case temperature vs. windows?22:14
Jordan_Ukokut: sftp is actually easier to setup than FTP. That's partly because everyone knows that putting an FTP server on the public internet is a terrible idea, no matter how "temporary".22:14
tgm4883kokut: any guides for what? Step 1) Install ssh "apt-get install ssh" on the server. Step 2) connect to it with something like filezilla22:14
Jordan_Ukokut: tgm4883: While installing filezilla from Ubuntu's repositories is perfectly safe, the fact that their sourceforge download for Windows includes malware prevents me from ever recommending it.22:16
tgm4883Jordan_U: what malware?22:18

ironhooffglrx-updates is the one i had on, it did update the driver it gave me has issues, so I switched to to fix where I thought I had it, when it did install though it said something about replacing a document gave me a window keep-replace i put the password in, and it didnt proceed, so i rebooted and fixed the packes through dkpg.

ruthhi, guys, we have two computers each with a headset. We want to talk to each other on the headsets. We thought Mumble would work, but we can't get it to work right. Does anyone know what to do?23:11
docmurThis is the data from the apt-get update, if it helps http://pastie.org/1019757623:13
rusticplagueexit23:14
SchrodingersScatruth: mumble should work, are you both connected to the same server?23:14
rusticplaguecan someone please tell me the command to leave current chat room?23:14
Jordan_Urusticplague: /part23:15
EriC^^rusticplague: /quit or /part to just leave the channel23:15
rusticplaguethank you23:15
ruthWell, we don't know what server to get, but other people are connected to it. How do we get our own server?23:16
ruthWe tried one and other people were connected to it.23:16
SchrodingersScatruth: if you want to run your own server, install mumble-server on a machine you can both connect to.23:18

blue403what happens with a shell background process that requires input from stdin?23:33
lillinuxandmacguI am currently running ubuntu 15.04 on a macbook pro 2011 (not my only linux laptop, the rest are on PCs) and I am having problems getting the trackpad to work properly, anyone got any ideas. Its a late 2011 macbook pro i723:34
bekksblue403: It wont get input, because it is in background.23:34
blue403bekks: but it's running23:34
bekksblue403: It runs because it waits for input.23:35
shudonback23:36
blue403what does it mean that a process is in the background?23:36

bekksblue403: Imagine having two sheets of paper, you're writing on. The sheet in the background "waits for input", because the is a question printed on it. As long as that sheet is behind the foreground sheet, it "waits".23:39
LeEarlblue403, it means it is not in the foreground ;D23:40
blue403bekks: well.. the bg process is running afaik.23:41
LeEarlblue403, it simple laymen terms it means it is running but u cant see it. Just like your tummy is digesting food but u r not seeing it23:41
blue403bekks: if the bg process prints, it gets printend to the console. But what about input?23:41
bekksblue403: Of course. "Running" means, the background sheet of paper exists,23:41
BuffyThat awkward moment when you realize you're a version behind23:41
BuffyFuck23:42
LeEarlblue403, u saw the processes of food input and output but never digestion.23:42
LeEarlso digestion is happening in the background23:42
bekksblue403: you cannot input stuff on the background sheet of paper / the background process.23:42
blue403LeEarl: is the bg process in running or blocked?23:42
bekksIt is RUNNING and WAITING for input.23:42
LeEarlof course running23:42
LeEarlbekks why u keep asking?23:43
blue403bekks: what if it's just in a for loop, then it isn't waiting for input.23:43
LeEarlwhat is going on there?23:43
bekksLeEarl: I am not asking.23:43
LeEarlsorry I mean blue40323:43
blue403LeEarl: but if it happens to be waiting, it means that it has done a system call to read, right?23:43
bekksblue403: If something in that loop waits for input, it waits for input.23:43
bekksblue403: forget system calls.23:43
blue403bekks: and how'll that be noticed in the shell?23:43
LeEarlblue403, it does whatever it is intended to do23:44
bekksblue403: It doesnt get noticed on the foreground sheet, that there is a question to be answered on the background sheet.23:44
LeEarlblue403 u need an app to show the running processes23:44
LeEarlor programs23:45
bekksblue403: It is like pinning a sheet of paper with a question on it to your living room wall. you can walk around it, look at it, laugh at it, but never answer it. It still is pinned there and waits in despair.23:45
blue403are you guys trolling?23:46
blue403I'm asking kernel specific implementations23:46
bekksblue403: You did not.23:46
bekksyou asked about background processes.23:46
LeEarlblue403, http://hisham.hm/htop/23:46
LeEarlblue403, is this #kernel ?23:46
brainwash!kernel23:47
ubottuThe core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages)23:47

bekksbackground processes are nor kernel specific, but happen in userland.23:47
bekksThe kernel itself is a big "program" with a hive of threads doing specific things.23:48

Jordan_Ublue403: A program that tries to read from stdin when there is nothing to be read will block on that read. If a program is in the background then there is nothing to be read from stdin.23:52
