[01:45] <redraw> hello, what's the correct way to rename or delete the user home folders in Xubuntu?
[01:51] <GridCube> if you have several that are not root?
[01:52] <GridCube> well... even then it would just respawn i guess
[01:58] <redraw> GridCube, rename or delete my user folders
[01:59] <redraw> in ~/
[01:59] <Unit193> redraw: usermod -h  and userdel -h
[01:59] <GridCube> Unit193, he just wants the folders
[02:00] <GridCube> redraw, launch thunar using sudo, sadly pkexec doesnt do thunar, and once you have a root enabled folder manager just delete the folders like you usually do
[02:00] <redraw> yeah, not changing the home location
[02:01] <redraw> ok
[02:01] <redraw> but
[02:01] <redraw> does any other program would look into the old folders?
[02:01] <GridCube> why would them?
[02:02] <redraw> i.e Screenshot
[02:02] <GridCube> i dunno what programs you have
[02:02] <redraw> Firefox
[02:02] <GridCube> if you dont run those users why would they?
[02:02] <redraw> I am the user
[02:02] <GridCube> that would pretty much deny the reason to have different users right?
[02:02] <redraw> I need to rename my folders
[02:02] <GridCube> if a program need said folder theyll respawn it
[02:03] <redraw> what does respawn means here?
[02:03] <GridCube> they recreate them and the files that go inside
[02:03] <GridCube> like the first time you open the program
[02:03] <redraw> so, I can't rename my folders
[02:03] <redraw> ?
[02:04] <GridCube> you can, but the programs that need them will create new ones with the old names
[02:04] <GridCube> clean slates
[02:04] <redraw> there a file in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[02:04] <redraw> but it seems to be from ubuntu using xdg
[02:05] <redraw> where's the file that contains those variables in Xubuntu?
[02:05] <GridCube> no idea
[02:05] <redraw> Unit193, any idea?
[02:07] <Unit193> Sorry, missed the question.
[02:08] <redraw> sorry guys to bother
[02:08] <redraw> is there any ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs file that Thunar reads to get the user folder paths?
[02:09] <Unit193> Edit that, run xdg-user-dirs-update, relogin.
[02:13] <redraw> dione@saturno:~/.config$ xdg-user-dirs-update

[09:55] <svalo> Hello everybody! something strange is happening if I use xubuntu with /home over glusterfs mounted via nfs: libreofice doesn't start and pidging takes ages to open, I tried w/ local home and everything works fine, any idea?
[09:59] <lderan> mm haven't tried doing that myself, maybe the nfs disk goes idle and needs a second to spin up
[10:05] <svalo> lderan, I also tried with 2 different method of caching and nothing
[10:06] <svalo> lderan, however if I try from ubuntu mate it works mounting using glusterfs
[10:07] <svalo> lderan, mounting /home via glusterfs on xubuntu makes it fails to start
[10:09] <svalo> lderan, sorry maybe not very clear: I tryied goanysync and cachefilesd as caching method but nothing changed, from ubuntu mate using glusterfs as mount driver everything works, under xubuntu i'm not able to make my session start using glusterfs because it complains about xconfd
[10:11] <brainwash> share the exact error message. your problem appears to be a very specific one (not the usual test case)
[10:18] <svalo> brainwash, here it is :) http://pastebin.com/4YQeEXnW
[10:22] <brainwash> svalo: does the same thing happen if you start with a clean LO config? rename ~/config/libreoffice
[10:23] <svalo> brainwash, i've tryed several time to completelly erase ~/config/libreoffice
[10:23] <brainwash> other than that, maybe someone in #libreoffice knows how to debug this
[10:23] <svalo> brainwash, but no luck
[10:24] <brainwash> sadly, no clue then.
[10:24] <svalo> brainwash, I've already asked but so far no answer bot on irc and on ask.libreoffice
[10:26] <brainwash> well, maybe you can try to disable the extension manager somehow and test again
[10:26] <svalo> brainwash, i'll try
[10:35] <svalo> brainwash, i tryed to use unopkg to disable everything but it fails to start giving errors on the same file
[10:59] <svalo> brainwash, just FYI i logged in using a local account launched libreoffice sucesfully then copied everything form ~local/.config/libreoffice to ~remoteuser/.config/libreoffice and now it works
[11:00] <brainwash> svalo: ah, great that you were able to resolve it :)
[11:01] <lderan> huzzah
[11:01] <svalo> brainwash, it's not solved actually but it's a workaround...still I can use it :)
[14:02] <Zerkalerka> Hey guys, I am having issues with the panel, FCITX will not show up.. it use to, but then I deleted the original panel and created my own and now I can't get it back.  In FCITX itself it now says kim panel configuration option not available, where as before I deleted the original xfce panel it was there :(
[17:21] <oiu> Is there a way to apply an emblem to every directory and file within a certain location?
[17:21] <oiu> I have a directory full containing directories containing some videos. I want them all the have the white emblem. I didn't know if it was possible to do it from Bash or something instead of manually doing everything by hand.
[17:31] <oiu> $ find . -exec gvfs-set-attribute '{}' -t stringv metadata::emblems emblem-colors-white \;
[17:31] <oiu> That seemed to work!

[17:37] <n-iCe> hi
[18:53] <ibouvousaime> what library shoud I install for tommath.h ?
[18:54] <DoomBoom> try https://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_contents
[18:54] <holstein> http://askubuntu.com/questions/332884/how-to-compile-a-c-program-that-uses-math-h might be relevant as well
[18:54] <DoomBoom> seems like libtommath-dev
[18:58] <ibouvousaime> yes I downloaded that but I get this error when I do a sudo make install on it  : install -d -g wheel -o root /usr/lib
[18:58] <ibouvousaime> install: invalid group ‘wheel’
[19:00] <holstein> the creators of the software should be able to tell you the requirements
[19:07] <ibouvousaime> ok holstein
[19:22] <xubuntu34i> chatting
[19:22] <xubuntu34i> while the system is being installed
[19:23] <Unit193> Not for long?
[20:17] <xubuntu57i> Hi, I can not install xubuntu at an encrypted system, the installation process cancelled with grub-efi-amd64-signed can not be installed at /target/ ...
[20:17] <xubuntu57i> any help please
[20:22] <DoomBoom> xubuntu57i, duckduckgo-ing tells me it's a common problem, though not one I have experience with. How did you partition the HDD?
[20:29] <xubuntu57i> @DoomBoom http://pastebin.com/H22ba9L7
[20:30] <xubuntu57i> http://pastebin.com/0FfY9rNP
[20:31] <brainwash_> !uefi
[20:31] <ubottu> UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
[20:31] <DoomBoom> https://askubuntu.com/questions/367582/grub-efi-amd64-signed-failed-on-luks-encrypted-disk seems to say /boot shouldn't be encrypted, maybe that's the problem here
[20:31] <DoomBoom> I'm no expert though
[20:33] <xubuntu57i> but uefi is in /dev/sda1, it is not encrypted?
[20:35] <xubuntu57i> ah, ok ... so I need a uefi partition AND a /boot partition outside the encrypted volume
[20:39] <DoomBoom> seems like it
[20:42] <xubuntu57i> need to reboot now, I will try - thanks
[20:44] <MattD_> Hi all, Just set up Xubuntu 14.04 with full disk encryption as well as encrypted Home. Problem is I have no swap partition. It's missing and I'm running out of memory to the point my laptop locks up. How do I activate swap?
[20:45] <brainwash_> !swap
[20:45] <ubottu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[20:47] <MattD_> Yes, I know this and it worked fine when I didn't use encryption.
[20:48] <brainwash_> what does not work now? can you share any error messages?
[20:49] <MattD_> There is no swap partition, no error messages, just missing.
[20:50] <MattD_> Nevermind, I know it's a known bug, just looking for an easy workaround.
[20:50] <brainwash_> so, why don't you create it then?
[20:53] <DoomBoom> get swappy
[21:01] <oiu> I'm a new GNU/Linux user that knows nothing about this stuff. I want to set up a local Web server so I can run site scripts written in PHP. Which HTTPd/etc. should I be using, and is there some sort of guide to help me properly configure it?
[21:01] <oiu> Running 15.04.
[21:01] <holstein> oiu: i suggest ubuntu server, running in virtualbox
[21:02] <oiu> holstein: I couldn't trade this machine for a pack of gum. I can't run VirtualBox very well on this hardware.
[21:02] <oiu> It's a very old and slow laptop with little RAM.
[21:02] <holstein> oiu: sure. so, dual boot, and dont run a GUI
[21:02] <holstein> these are nice, as well http://www.turnkeylinux.org/
[21:03] <oiu> I only have one computer and that's this laptop.
[21:03] <holstein> they are ubuntu based, and can be run live
[21:03] <oiu> I don't see how dual-booting would help.
[21:03] <holstein> oiu: sure, friend. so, install what you want
[21:03] <holstein> oiu: apache, the whole lamp stack. whatever you like.. its all in the repos
[21:03] <knome> oiu, you'll likely want something light like lighttpd
[21:03] <maijin> holstein: https://bitnami.com/stacks in the same spirit
[21:04] <maijin> holstein: didn't know your turnkey
[21:04] <maijin> nice
[21:04] <holstein> oiu: dual booting would help by isolating the testing environment
[21:04] <holstein> no need to add things to your desktop install, and no need to have a GUI on the server install.. so, dual booting would be a way to isolate those.. but, there are many ways..
[21:04] <oiu> I think I understand.
[21:05] <oiu> VirtualBox was my first choice -- I like the idea of having a separate OS for the L*MP stack, but this machine is terrible.
[21:05] <oiu> I'll look into doing what you suggested. Thanks.
[21:06] <holstein> lighter choices like knome suggested are great, if they meet the needs of what you are trying to run
[21:07] <knome> in the age of cloud and microinstances, it might be just more pleasurable to set up something like that up, if connectivity is not a problem
[21:08] <holstein> when, digital ocean droplets are $5/month, and you can get $10 credit free, many places, such as jupiterbroadcasing..
[21:08] <holstein> you can spin things up and pay by the hour..
[21:09] <knome> i totally acknowledge that cloud is not always an option though
[21:09] <oiu> If I'm to go for virtualisation that's presumably the best option since I don't have the power to run things locally.
[21:09] <oiu> Either that or get a new machine/a Raspberry Pi.
[21:09] <oiu> Unfortunately I am extremely poor. :p
[21:10] <knome> well, with cloud, you're going to get much more than pi with the same amount of money
[21:10] <holstein> as long as you are patient, i think you can do it with what you have..
[21:10] <knome> of course, it's not yours forever, but you do get a lot more really
[21:10] <knome> and hey, things change, maybe you aren't extremely poor in 12 months :)
[21:11] <oiu> I hate to disregard the advice I'm asking for but I'm really not sure if I like the idea of having to reboot whenever I want to do any PHP development, holstein.
[21:11] <knome> that said, i avoid subscription-based stuff like plague myself..
[21:11] <holstein> monetize something on the droplet, and you end up getting paid to have the testing in the cloud..
[21:12] <holstein> oiu: sure.. install what you like on your system. if something lighter meets your needs, it meets them..
[21:12] <holstein> wont hurt to try it
[21:12] <knome> most people do not "need" apache
[21:12] <knome> it's just very common, thus usually works without too much hassle.
[21:12] <oiu> I'll give it a go. I wasn't too keen on the idea of cluttering up my machine running a Web stack on the host OS, but it's looking like that's my only option. I'll try Lighttpd as knome suggested.
[21:13] <oiu> My only free* option. :p
[21:13] <oiu> Thank you all very much for the advice.
[21:13] <oiu> I appreciate it.
[21:13] <knome> if Unit193 were here, he'd tell you many reasons why you *shouldn't* use apache :P
[21:13] <holstein> you may find older/broken hardware laying about that can do that job
[21:13] <knome> oiu, disclaimer: i haven't used lighttpd myself
[21:13] <holstein> i'll get older laptops with broken screens for free, and use them as "headless servers"..
[21:14] <knome> oiu, the aforementioned Unit193 is using cherokee, so maybe check that out too
[21:14] <oiu> I don't leave the house often. I may check eBay for something, though. I know that old Pentium 4 boxes go for cheap so I guess I could try and get one of those cheaply.
[21:14] <Unit193> >_>
[21:14] <knome> Unit193, well hello sir!
[21:14] <holstein> oiu: free, is what im talking about..
[21:15] <oiu> I don't know of anywhere where'd I could get free hardware.
[21:15] <holstein> oiu: if you were standing beside me, i could give you a P4.. but, im sure you can work something out
[21:15] <oiu> I'll try.
