|---|---|---|
| __Myst__ | Actually | 00:03 |
| __Myst__ | What is fwlps and is it safe to disable? | 00:03 |
| jeeves_moss | does anyone know how to fix this? http://pastebin.com/exDWWLWw | 00:04 |
| linuxuz3r | __Myst__: hi i think its a wifi property | 00:04 |
| linuxuz3r | a wifi settings | 00:04 |
| __Myst__ | linuxuz3r: Can I disable it? | 00:05 |
| linuxuz3r | i dont know | 00:05 |
| reisio | it probably doesn't control whether your computer explodes or not | 00:05 |
| linuxuz3r | you can try | 00:05 |
| __Myst__ | I'll shut it off | 00:06 |
| __Myst__ | I heard it helps with an issue I'm having | 00:06 |
| jeeves_moss | reisio, you still here? | 00:07 |
| OerHeks | ips and fwlps are power management modules in some realtek nics | 00:07 |
| reisio | jeeves_moss: what's the problem | 00:08 |
| __Myst__ | OerHeks: Can I safely disable it? | 00:08 |
| OerHeks | some mention disabling them is giving network a boost, others warn about it. | 00:09 |
| __Myst__ | Warn about it? | 00:09 |
| __Myst__ | How OerHeks ? | 00:09 |
| jeeves_moss | did you see the pastebin? I keep getting that over and over again in dmesg, and it causes the system to slow to a crawl, then lock totally up | 00:09 |
| jeeves_moss | reisio, http://pastebin.com/exDWWLWw | 00:11 |
| OerHeks | __Myst__, depends on the network devices i guess, try it and see it that works | 00:12 |
| pavlos | jeeves_moss, are you running ubuntu? which? | 00:13 |
| pingpingpong | Hi all! | 00:15 |
| reisio | hi | 00:15 |
| jeeves_moss | pavlos, yes, 14.04 LTS | 00:16 |
| pingpingpong | Finally looks like it works. Im new in here. | 00:16 |
| reisio | gj | 00:16 |
| jeeves_moss | pingpingpong, we've all been there. you have to start at the beginning. at lest you have a GUI to learn. when I started, I only had a CLI | 00:17 |
| pingpingpong | Well, i've been in the design field and going to the dev world slowly and a gui is of no good if not done well. And this ios app that I installed is not helping much! :) | 00:19 |
| pavlos | jeeves_moss, not sure if this might help ... http://www.antojose.com/content/solved-how-fix-mmc-mmc2-controller-never-released-inhibit-bit-bits-error-on-ubuntu-or-linux-mint-poulsbo-chipset-msi-x320-laptop | 00:20 |
| terryleigh | Hi guys, I'm new to setting up a web server.. I've installed Ubuntu 12 LTS.. I'm busy setting up a virtualenv for a Django installation, which directory should I store the envs? | 00:20 |
| jeeves_moss | pavlos, sweet, thanks. I loaded 14.04 onto a Transformer pad. it's been an up hill challange. I had to SPI a new BIOS into the unit. | 00:20 |
| jeeves_moss | pavlos, applied that already. no change | 00:21 |
| nicomachus | I think I've tried just about every possible solution to format this USB drive to create a live disc, but Startup Disc Creator still says it has 0B free space | 00:22 |
| jeeves_moss | nicomachus, what are you using to make the live disk? a windows box? | 00:23 |
| nicomachus | no, 14.04 | 00:23 |
| jeeves_moss | nicomachus, are you using DD to make it? | 00:23 |
| nicomachus | no. just startup disk creator. | 00:24 |
| jeeves_moss | nicomachus, ok, time to get your hands dirty and use DD | 00:24 |
| ObrienDave | or unetbootin | 00:24 |
| OerHeks | wipe it. | 00:25 |
| jeeves_moss | nicomachus, do you know what drive it is? (ie. /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc, etc)? | 00:25 |
| jeeves_moss | ObrienDave, let's teach good habits | 00:25 |
| nicomachus | sdb | 00:25 |
| nicomachus | Startup Disk Creator: https://imgur.com/vUXscw1 | 00:25 |
| jeeves_moss | nicomachus, once you know the drive, then you run "dd if=<file name> of=</dev/<device>" | 00:25 |
| ObrienDave | good habits? whatever works is good | 00:26 |
| nicomachus | man, dd makes me so...apprehensive. | 00:26 |
| Hatycat | Hey does anybody know if ther is a way to get a Youtube or spotify lens for dash ubuntu 15.04? havent used ubuntu in quite some time and appearantly all the old custom lenses are broken on new version of unity? | 00:26 |
| nicomachus | one letter wrong and I overwrite my laptop | 00:26 |
| jeeves_moss | nicomachus, lol. don't worry. it's like giving a loaded handgun to a monkey | 00:26 |
| nicomachus | oh yay. | 00:26 |
| nicomachus | last time I said a command me nervous because of it's raw power, it was rsync, the pc crashed, and I lost 400GB of encrypted data. :/ | 00:27 |
| nicomachus | but hey, why not? | 00:27 |
| jeeves_moss | nicomachus, the command you want is "dd if=/home/nicomachus/Documents/Ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb" | 00:28 |
| Hatycat | nah sda | 00:28 |
| OerHeks | eh, is that kinston data treveler 3.0 such device that comes with software, also known as U3? | 00:28 |
| ObrienDave | unetbootin ;P | 00:28 |
| Hatycat | just try all the letters till it works | 00:28 |
| jeeves_moss | nicomachus, no time like now to learn | 00:28 |
| jeeves_moss | ObrienDave, you're making things complicated | 00:28 |
| gshmu | hello, I'm using linux kernel 3.19, How to disable update kernel 3.13 | 00:28 |
| ObrienDave | oh, not like you are ;P | 00:29 |
| jeeves_moss | ObrienDave, I'm trying to teach him the correct way of doing it. Shell is zen | 00:29 |
| nicomachus | haha, jeeves_moss, I hit enter 3 secs before you wrote the command for me. | 00:29 |
| OerHeks | !info u3-tool | 00:29 |
| nicomachus | and your path was off, so I'm glad. | 00:29 |
| jeeves_moss | ObrienDave, and it's not like loosing data isn't a good learning exp! | 00:29 |

| ObrienDave | OMG SMH and saunters away | 00:30 |
| nicomachus | OerHeks: there was nothing installed. I bought it from the Fed Ex Office store I had to wait at for 30 minutes today. It was on sale for 3.99. haha | 00:30 |
| OerHeks | When i read usb 0 bytes, i think of U3 :-) | 00:30 |
| jeeves_moss | ObrienDave, lol | 00:30 |

| jeeves_moss | ObrienDave, thanks | 00:31 |
| pingpingpong | Off-topic! Somebody can help? I'm trying to join the mysql channel on freenode but somehow I can't. | 00:31 |
| jeeves_moss | pingpingpong, you have to reg a nic first | 00:32 |
| OerHeks | !register | 00:32 |

| WyZeGuY | hello hello hello | 00:32 |
| pingpingpong | I just joined this ubuntu channel and it works but the mysql not. | 00:32 |
| OerHeks | but that is already said, isn't it? | 00:32 |
| WyZeGuY | how do you hog open wifi? | 00:32 |
| nicomachus | jeeves_moss: "dd: failed to open ‘/dev/sdb’: Permission denied" wth? | 00:32 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, with bacon | 00:33 |
| jeeves_moss | nicomachus, DD requires route | 00:33 |
| jeeves_moss | *root | 00:33 |
| * nicomachus is idiot | 00:33 | |
| WyZeGuY | jeeves_moss: hog. clever. lol | 00:33 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, the muzzies in here are getting ready to bomb me for that comment | 00:33 |
| WyZeGuY | jeeves_moss: "muzzie". isn't that kind of as degrading as "beaner"? | 00:34 |
| nicomachus | ugh dd doesn't have a --progress flag? | 00:34 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, I could have said MUCH worse. | 00:34 |
| WyZeGuY | jeeves_moss: of course. we could all do much worse. the humanity is in not doing worse. | 00:34 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, hence why I don't get involved in anything that says you should kill over what you belive in. | 00:35 |
| WyZeGuY | (y) | 00:35 |
| WyZeGuY | soooo... anyone here know how to snatch open wifi? | 00:36 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, look for an open access point | 00:36 |
| WyZeGuY | what does that mean? | 00:37 |
| jeeves_moss | what is your wieless adaptor listed as? Wlan0? | 00:37 |
| WyZeGuY | well, should be. i don't see it in the wireless settings, but i think that's what wireless always is. | 00:38 |
| jeeves_moss | open a shell and type "ifconfig" | 00:38 |
| gogis | hi there | 00:39 |
| WyZeGuY | ipconfig says command not found | 00:39 |
| WyZeGuY | oh. ifconfig | 00:39 |
| nicomachus | lol this isn't windows, WyZeGuY | 00:39 |
| WyZeGuY | yes, wlan0. | 00:39 |
| WyZeGuY | i'm scatterbrained. | 00:39 |
| gogis | is there anybody somehow contributing to Ubuntu development? | 00:40 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, it should be ifconfig | 00:42 |
| WyZeGuY | yes, wlan0 | 00:42 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, ok, then run "iwscan list" | 00:42 |
| gshmu | i'm uncheck kernel but it downloading ... https://clbin.com/6CXXnr.png this may a bug | 00:42 |
| ObrienDave | gogis, yes, there are many. you can visit then in #ubuntu-devel | 00:42 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, sorry, that should be "iwscan list" | 00:42 |
| WyZeGuY | jeeves_moss: what's the difference in what you just typed? and do i need to download this iwscan? | 00:43 |
| TJ- | WyZeGuY: Or even "sudo iwlist scan" !! | 00:43 |
| Hatycat | is it even still possible to make scopes in Unity 8? | 00:43 |
| WyZeGuY | Interface doesn't support scanning. | 00:44 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, no, it's installed already. it's the wirelessconfig mod | 00:44 |
| WyZeGuY | oh, but wlan0 says Scan completed with some info. what's important here? | 00:44 |
| TJ- | WyZeGuY: Look at the ESSIDs that were found, those are the access points discovered | 00:45 |
| WyZeGuY | yes, I'm connected to an open wifi point right now, Hart's Laundry. I'm trying to hog their wifi. | 00:45 |
| jeeves_moss | WyZeGuY, and why are you trying to do this? | 00:46 |
| WyZeGuY | so that it doesn't run snail pace | 00:46 |
| WyZeGuY | and good to know for the future | 00:46 |
| Hatycat | kekkers | 00:46 |
| jeeves_moss | anyways guys, I'm going to head back to the house. I have a server to break | 00:47 |
| WyZeGuY | oh noes | 00:48 |
| pbx | i broke my notification style - now it's just pale blue boxes in the upper left instead of the nice style floating ones (in the upper right) i had before. how do i unbreak? i thought it was from installing i3 but i removed that... | 00:50 |
| pbx | 14.04 linux, unity fwiw | 00:50 |
| Maimster | Samba4 AD-DC can be a real pain in the butt. Now that it's working I feel better. | 00:58 |
| digdeep | For a couple of days, my ubuntu clock is out of sync, even it is configured to sync with the internet | 01:00 |
| fotografisto | what's a replacement for dvd shrink in ubuntu? | 01:09 |
| bazhang | !handbrake | fotografisto | 01:10 |
| ubottu | fotografisto: handbrake is a an open-source, GPL-licensed, multiplatform, multithreaded video transcoder, available for MacOS X, Linux and Windows. - http://handbrake.fr | 01:10 |

| fotografisto | gui for those programs? | 01:11 |
| bazhang | smplayer with mpv fotografisto | 01:11 |
| bazhang | winff for ffmpeg | 01:11 |
| bazhang | or is that mencoder | 01:12 |
| vastkahuna | What do I need to do to Ubuntu in order to be able to play videos from Comcast? | 01:12 |
| bazhang | !info winff | 01:12 |
| ubottu | winff (source: winff): graphical video and audio batch converter using ffmpeg or avconv. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.5.3-4ubuntu1 (vivid), package size 113 kB, installed size 1493 kB | 01:12 |
| fronce_ | handbrake has a gui, dvdbackup has a cli | 01:12 |
| fotografisto | I think you need a tv tuner vastkahuna | 01:12 |
| bazhang | vastkahuna, got ubuntu-restricted-extras installed yet | 01:12 |
| OerHeks | For most Flash + DRM issues i would say install chrome | 01:13 |
| vastkahuna | Not yet. How do I do that? | 01:13 |
| bazhang | vastkahuna, install from the package manager | 01:14 |
| nicomachus | uh.... what's the administrative password for a live usb? | 01:18 |
| nicomachus | I'm trying to open nautilus with gksu and it's asking for an administrative password... | 01:18 |
| TJ- | nicomachus: there isn't one. Use gksudo | 01:21 |
| lagreca | hi, I'm running xubuntu 14.04.2. Whenever I set brightness to the lowest levels using fn keys and I let my laptop screen dimmed for a long time, I cannot reset brightness to a normal or highest levels. It goes dark, but cannot be light again. | 01:22 |
| lagreca | What can I do in order to solve that? | 01:22 |
| michelubuntu_ | TJ-: long time no see | 01:22 |
| vastkahuna | I installed restricted extras and comcast is saying I need to update flash but ubuntu says I have that already | 01:26 |
| fotografisto | vastkahuna ubuntu may not be as up to date as adobe's flash | 01:27 |
| fotografisto | go to adobes site you should be able to download it there | 01:27 |
| fotografisto | for linux | 01:27 |
| fotografisto | https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ vastkahuna | 01:28 |
| vastkahuna | It's showing 4 different options, which one do I need? | 01:29 |
| xangua | (20:13:08) OerHeks: For most Flash + DRM issues i would say install chrome - vastkahuna | 01:30 |
| teward | vastkahuna: Comcast is identifying that you need Flash updated, which you cant get in Ubuntu repos anymore due to Flash dropping Linux support outside of that packaged in Google Chrome | 01:30 |
| xangua | fotografisto: there hasn't been a major flash upgrade since 2012, only security updates | 01:30 |
| teward | vastkahuna: so I suggest installing Google Chrome. | 01:30 |
| teward | xangua: and even then, their linux roadmap shows they're planning on total dropping, no new updates, soon enough. No date, but it said 'soon' last i looked | 01:31 |
| vastkahuna | So do I get it from the ubuntu software center or from google? | 01:31 |
| maxxxxx | Hi. Would someone be so kind as to tell me how to mount my windows partition for the purpose of continuing to resize it? | 01:31 |
| fotografisto | ubuntu software center vastkahuna | 01:31 |
| teward | vastkahuna: https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html or the software center | 01:32 |
| kostkon | teward, security updates for 11.2.x till 2014, that's the roadmap afaik | 01:32 |
| teward | vastkahuna: then use Chrome instead of Firefox | 01:32 |
| maxxxxx | fotografisto: me? | 01:32 |
| teward | kostkon: close enough, but since it's 2015, that effectively means it's all dead | 01:32 |
| kostkon | teward, errm, 2017* | 01:32 |
| nicomachus | ughhhh. I'm trying to use rsync to move a temp-mounted encrypted home folder to an external HDD, through a live usb. I can navigate to the ecryptfs location in /mnt/tmp, but rsync says there is no such file or directory there. and if I try to actually go inside the ecryptfs folder, it says permission denied. | 01:32 |
| vastkahuna | OK I'm going to try that now | 01:32 |
| kostkon | teward, sorry | 01:32 |
| teward | kostkon: still close enough, everything uses the higher version for checks :0 | 01:32 |
| xangua | vastkahuna: you get Google Chrome, from Google Chrome's site | 01:32 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna, http://www.google.com/chrome/ | 01:33 |
| fotografisto | ? | 01:33 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna, double click on the .deb file | 01:33 |
| vastkahuna | OK | 01:33 |
| maxxxxx | Anybody? | 01:34 |
| Ereur01 | hi | 01:35 |
| teward | maxxxxx: if the resize was interrupted you have bigger problems, likely... | 01:35 |
| Ereur01 | im new here | 01:35 |
| void | welcome Ereur01 | 01:35 |
| Ereur01 | thanks | 01:35 |
| maxxxxx | No that's not the issue. When I boot the gparted livecd, it says the files can't be read and its status is unmounted so it won't tell me how much space I can resize, and won't allow me to resize, reward | 01:36 |
| maxxxxx | * teward | 01:36 |
| teward | maxxxxx: what's the exact error it says | 01:37 |
| void | maxxxxx, u tried resize in windows partition manager? | 01:37 |
| teward | maxxxxx: alternatively, use Windows to live resize the thing, if you're on Win7 or later | 01:38 |
| maxxxxx | void: it continues querying for available space into infinity | 01:38 |
| teward | s/the thing/itself/ | 01:38 |
| maxxxxx | Hold on ill take a picture | 01:38 |
| vastkahuna | OK after installing it told me this program is run from a terminal, so do I really need to open a terminal to run chrome or am I misunderstanding? | 01:39 |
| maxxxxx | Teward: void: https://i.imgur.com/l7Tg0XN.jpg | 01:40 |
| teward | maxxxxx: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g (confirm this is installed) | 01:41 |
| maxxxxx | Ugh okay hold on I have to boot Linux now | 01:41 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna, ignore that message | 01:41 |
| maxxxxx | teward: can I do that on gparted or do I have to boot Ubuntu? | 01:42 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna, just search for it in the dash or look for it in your menu | 01:42 |
| teward | maxxxxx: you can do that from the live image | 01:43 |
| teward | (ideally it should already be there though...) | 01:43 |
| maxxxxx | (I already hooted ubuntu oops | 01:44 |
| maxxxxx | ) | 01:44 |
| maxxxxx | It was upgraded | 01:44 |
| maxxxxx | teward: okay now what | 01:46 |
| maxxxxx | teward: .... | 01:47 |
| teward | maxxxxx: try gparted now | 01:47 |
| teward | maxxxxx: and patience i'm not JUST in this channel, i'm in several | 01:47 |
| maxxxxx | Sorry... | 01:47 |
| psusi | maxxxxx, looks like the partition is corrupt... run scandisk on it from windows | 01:47 |
| teward | maxxxxx: i also agree with psusi | 01:47 |
| maxxxxx | Fuck.... | 01:47 |
| maxxxxx | psusi: how | 01:48 |
| teward | maxxxxx: language. that kind of language is bad here, don't. | 01:48 |
| vastkahuna_ | I just installed chrome from google and two things, one is comcast is still telling me I need to update flash when I try to play a video, second is the ubuntu software center is telling me that chrome is run from a terminal. What does that mean? | 01:48 |
| maxxxxx | Sorry again | 01:48 |
| teward | maxxxxx: boot to windows, run `chkdsk /f` and have it reboot to check. | 01:48 |
| psusi | or click scandisk in the gui maybe? | 01:48 |
| OerHeks | " for the purpose of continuing to resize it?" did you interrupt it?... | 01:48 |
| teward | maxxxxx: Or boot to a Windows install disk to use its recovery environment | 01:48 |
| teward | psusi: it'll still force reboot | 01:48 |
| teward | psusi: can't make changes to Win filesys when mounted/running apparently | 01:48 |
| teward | (ran into that with my dualboot last week) | 01:48 |
| pbx | vastkahuna_, chrome does not install flash. that's a separate bit. | 01:48 |
| maxxxxx | I don't have an install disk | 01:48 |
| kostkon | <kostkon> vastkahuna, ignore that message | 01:48 |
| psusi | teward, that's true of most filesystems, but that's not what the message is saying | 01:49 |
| maxxxxx | Is there a way to just blast windows from the disk? | 01:49 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna_, you probably missed my earlier message | 01:49 |
| teward | psusi: True, but 'scandisk' from inside Windows will enforce a reboot to actually fix things | 01:49 |
| pbx | vastkahuna_, dont' worry about starting chrome from terminal, just tap the windows key and type 'chrome' (among other ways) | 01:49 |
| teward | psusi: and from that, I speak of experience, unless you mean from Linux? | 01:49 |
| psusi | maxxxxx, you don't care about any files in that partition? then just delete it | 01:49 |
| lnxmen | Is there any way to downgrade Plasma5 in Kubuntu 15.04? | 01:49 |
| maxxxxx | Okay hold on I'm gonna see if anything important is left... | 01:49 |
| psusi | teward, yea, of course we're talking about from linux? | 01:50 |
| OerHeks | lnxmen, no. | 01:52 |
| teward | psusi: i think you need to explain to me how to run a scandisk from Linux, unless i'm so tired I'm misreading you | 01:52 |
| teward | (I'm still up at that spot) | 01:52 |
| lnxmen | OerHeks: Well, okay. Thank you. | 01:52 |
| OerHeks | lnxmen, you might want to check #kubuntu too, but you would get the same answer i guess | 01:53 |
| lnxmen | I have already checked. | 01:53 |
| psusi | teward, you don't... you run it from windows, as I said... | 01:53 |
| === YlerGets is now known as YlerGets-Away | ||
| lnxmen | (I mean, no response.) | 01:53 |
| vastkahuna_ | OK that got it fixed, but now I have two versions of chrome instaleed, googles official one and also chromium. Do I need them both? | 01:53 |
| teward | psusi: i missed that, sorry, i'm tired from dissecting python code at work all day :/ | 01:54 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna_, you only need chrome, since chromium comes without pepperflash support | 01:54 |
| vastkahuna_ | OK thanks | 01:55 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna_, scratch that. you can install pepperflash in chromium. | 01:55 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna_, as well* | 01:55 |
| vastkahuna_ | OK | 01:55 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna_, for DRM playback though, Chrome is a safe bet. | 01:56 |
| vastkahuna_ | Now if I want to install the restricted extras from the terminal, what command do I need? | 01:56 |
| kostkon | vastkahuna_, either search for ubuntu-restricted-extras in the software centre, or just give sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras in a terminal | 01:57 |
| vastkahuna_ | OK | 01:58 |
| maxxxxx | Alright I'm nuking windows | 02:00 |

| moses | how do i have a console window always open to ssh to my irssi? | 02:22 |
| moses | using ubuntu | 02:22 |
| moses | nvm | 02:22 |

| moses | ok | 02:23 |
| moses | that way even if i close the terminal irssi will still be running? | 02:23 |
| leonic | hello hoe do i installl lx viewer | 02:23 |
| unkn0wn | well you can detach from your screen session and then reattach to it using screen -Udr | 02:24 |
| unkn0wn | screen takes a little getting used to but its worth learning | 02:24 |
| moses | i use it on my server when i ssh | 02:25 |
| moses | already | 02:25 |
| moses | should i use it on this comp also | 02:25 |
| unkn0wn | perfect. yeah just leave it running | 02:25 |
| leonic | i downloaded the tar.gz file but i do know how to install it | 02:25 |
| moses | i connect to that server via ssh from this computer | 02:25 |
| moses | should i run screen here also? | 02:25 |
| unkn0wn | well i leave it running on my server and then if i wanna irc is just jump on my server and reattach to my screen session | 02:26 |
| OerHeks | leonic, double click onthe tar.gz, fileroller opens, unpack it, and read the read.me inside it | 02:26 |
| unkn0wn | ive also heard of tmux but never used it. | 02:27 |

| nicomachus | how long should this dd command take to run? | 02:46 |
| gh0strider | which dd command?.. | 02:46 |
| nicomachus | I'm cloning a 1TB internal HDD to a 1TB external HDD, but there's less than 400 GB of data | 02:46 |
| gh0strider | that will take awhile | 02:46 |
| somsip | nicomachus: often depends on the BS setting. Paste the command | 02:46 |
| nicomachus | sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdc | 02:47 |
| nicomachus | executed it about an hour ago. | 02:47 |
| gh0strider | BS setting is a factor that is for sure...but writting 400GB will take awhile regardless | 02:48 |
| somsip | nicomachus: :) - well, 1TB is a lot. FWIW http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2139027 | 02:48 |
| nicomachus | it's also going over usb 2.0 | 02:48 |
| somsip | nicomachus: then I'd adjust my estimate to 'longer than a while' | 02:48 |
| nicomachus | lol | 02:49 |
| nicomachus | guess I'll just plan on letting it run overnight... | 02:49 |
| teward | nicomachus: which further slows down your transfer rate, 3.0 would be faster. And 1TB is a lot of data. 400GB being transferred is definitely a while at least, potentially even over a couple hours depending on different factors | 02:49 |
| somsip | nicomachus: I was just going to suggest you sleep on it | 02:49 |
| teward | nicomachus: that'd be my idea, yes, let it keep running overnight | 02:49 |
| reisio | nicomachus: why dd? | 02:49 |
| nicomachus | teward: if the mobo supported 3.0 that's how it would be moving. | 02:49 |
| teward | nicomachus: still not my point, even then it'd still take a while, suggestion is to leave it running overnight. | 02:50 |
| nicomachus | reisio: it's an encrypted drive and I'm having trouble getting to the Home folder data. | 02:50 |
| nicomachus | the mobo/RAM/CPU all may be bad, so I'm just cloning the drive to an external and going to try to recover from my laptop. | 02:50 |
| nicomachus | this is basically a last-ditch effort to recover the data. | 02:52 |
| reisio | nicomachus: what, the drive is dying? | 02:53 |
| nicomachus | reisio: bootloader is completely broken. I've tried so many different things. originally the grub config was trying to boot the 3.13 kernel when 3.19 was installed, but I fixed that and still can't boot. | 02:54 |
| reisio | bootloader has nothing to do with data integrity, really | 02:54 |
| nicomachus | it's encrypted though. and it doesn't want to unwrap the passphrase. | 02:54 |
| reisio | you're probably typing it wrong, or using it wrong, then | 02:55 |
| nicomachus | lol, no. | 02:55 |
| reisio | that's a problem, but there's no reason to suspect your data is in trouble | 02:55 |

| RazWelles | Any idea what's up? | 02:57 |
| nicomachus | reisio: it's going to get a fresh install on the internal HDD anyway, doesn't hurt me any to clone it over to the external first. | 02:57 |

| lotuspsychje | ircnode0: maybe check the intel website for more recent driver? | 04:43 |
| Ben64 | hard to find a client on windows that can do it easily, but thats not the fault of the program | 04:43 |

| EriC^^ | ctz`recover: main hdd you mean your decrypted installation? | 11:22 |
| EriC^^ | ctz`recover: that command should bind mount your /dev from the live usb to the empty /dev dir in your decrypted installation, so we can install new kernels if we need to | 11:22 |
| MonkeyDust | !wayland | kanupatar | 11:22 |
| ubottu | kanupatar: Wayland is a display server protocol that is intended to replace X. More information can be found at http://wayland.freedesktop.org/ . Ubuntu is instead focusing on development of !Mir; see its factoid for more information. | 11:22 |
| kanupatar | MonkeyDust: I know man. May I get a distro with waylad only? | 11:23 |
| MonkeyDust | kanupatar ask in ##linux or so, this is ubuntu only | 11:24 |
| kanupatar | MonkeyDust: okay | 11:24 |
| EriC^^ | ctz`recover: if you typed the command and it didn't return anything it means it went through, i have no idea about you saying you have 2 mounts of /dev in your main hdd | 11:24 |
| ctz`recover | EriC^^, I might've gotten confused or explained myself wrong, here's a picture, I think we achieved what was supposed :) : http://snag.gy/lvedy.jpg | 11:26 |
| EriC^^ | ctz`recover: ok, cool | 11:26 |
| EriC^^ | ctz`recover: type sudo chroot /media/ubuntu..... | 11:27 |

| jishjish | hi all. Is there a tool I can use to monitor fan speed and CPU temperature and find out whatever it is that causes the fan to go spinning full speed non stop. Sometimes it happens after a short time and just doesn;'t stop. Other times it just stops randomly. | 11:27 |
| ctz`recover | EriC^^, There was an error creating the child process for this terminal | 11:28 |
| jishjish | maybe it's a process or a program on startup maybe it's something else.I have a 8510w compaq | 11:28 |
| EriC^^ | jishjish: psensor is a nice program for monitoring temps | 11:28 |
| jishjish | for instance right now the fan is not spinning much at all and is not noisy. a moment ago it was full on. not stopping. I | 11:29 |
| EriC^^ | jishjish: open a terminal and keep a running instance of htop or top | 11:29 |
| MonkeyDust | kanupatar read everything there is to know on the link ubottu gave you | 11:29 |
| EriC^^ | ctz`recover: odd | 11:29 |
| EriC^^ | ctz`recover: try a different terminal | 11:30 |
| ctz`recover | EriC^^, I'll restart the liveusb instance and be right back. | 11:30 |
| EriC^^ | xterm or something | 11:30 |
| jishjish | EriC^^: will it help me find out what is causing it, i.e. log temps in conjunction with runing processes. Can they be logged? I.e. how else can I work out which ones are running on startup. I think one of those is causing it to go nuts. | 11:30 |
| kuba7447 | how do i delete the sample content , do i need root access? | 11:30 |
| === Yukkii is now known as Yukkino | ||
| EriC^^ | jishjish: it should be pretty obvious, when it heats up check htop and see if anything unusual is there | 11:31 |
| shome | htop is pretty | 11:31 |
| jishjish | EriC^^: but how can I do that as the login manager starts up (at that point I haven't logged in and can't run anything | 11:32 |
| MonkeyDust | kuba7447 yes, for everything outside /home, you need root access | 11:32 |
| kuba7447 | how do i gain root access? | 11:32 |
| MonkeyDust | kuba7447 with sudo | 11:32 |
| kuba7447 | but i want to remove the folder, do i type something like sudo -rm /usr/share/sample ? | 11:33 |
| EriC^^ | jishjish: log in, and check it, whatever is making it hot before logging in would show up too | 11:34 |
| jishjish | so i'm loking for the process with the highest ram/cpu -- this would be what's causing the fan? | 11:34 |
| MonkeyDust | kuba7447 rm -r to remove a folder | 11:34 |
| kuba7447 | thanks, MonkeyDust | 11:35 |
| MonkeyDust | kuba7447 careful, know what you're doing | 11:35 |
| EriC^^ | yeah look for something that's using up the cpu | 11:35 |
| kuba7447 | ok... | 11:35 |
| ctz`recover | EriC^^, Ok I`m back with a fresh live instance, can you resend that for loop please? | 11:36 |
| EriC^^ | ok, type for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /media/ubuntu.../hashhere$i; done | 11:37 |

| martindouglas | hey macboy | 11:52 |
| macboy | sup bro | 11:53 |
| mo0p | Hello, I am trying to read an NFC card, i installed drivers for the reader (acr122U) and lsusb shows the device there | 11:55 |
| kuba7447 | macboy? are you using ubuntu on a mac? | 11:56 |
| mo0p | however ncf-list shows "NO NFC DEVICE DETECTED" | 11:56 |
| mo0p | can anyone assist ? | 11:56 |
| mo0p | Hello, I am trying to read an NFC card, i installed drivers for the reader (acr122U) and lsusb shows the device there.. however nfc-list shows "no nfc device found" | 11:59 |
| MonkeyDust | mo0p is that for a smart phone or tablet? | 12:02 |
| mo0p | MonkeyDust, its a USB nfc reader for MiFare card. | 12:03 |
| MonkeyDust | mo0p how is that ubuntu related? | 12:04 |
| mo0p | MonkeyDust, it works on my arch install with same drivers, something else mst be required on Ubuntu..cant seem to figure out what | 12:04 |
| MonkeyDust | mo0p what is 'it'? start from the beginning, what brings you here | 12:05 |
| mo0p | In short i am having issues with an nfc reader and the issue seems to be specific to Ubuntu 14.04. | 12:05 |
| mo0p | was wondering if any one else had any issues with nfc readers on ubuntu and if so, what was resolution. The reader is detected in lsusb after installing the drivers for the reader. but when i nfc-list when a card is placed on the reader nothing is detected. | 12:06 |
| mo0p | on my Arch linux install, same drivers and tools it is detected. but i use Ubuntu as my main pc and would like it to work over here. | 12:07 |
| mo0p | if this is not the place to discuss this, thats cool. I will poke around more on the weekend when i have more time jus tthought this would be a good place to start. | 12:07 |
| mo0p | Also.. dmesg has output for the device .. it is fully detected and drivers are loaded | 12:09 |
| brad__ | i just installed 14.04 and now want to install windows 7, but it wont boot from cd. What do I do? | 12:10 |
| kuba7447 | brad__, why do you want to install windows? | 12:11 |
| mo0p | Could try to intrupt boot and select to boot from disk? sometimes an F key will present the user with a boot device selection | 12:11 |
| MonkeyDust | brad__ better ask in ##windows, this is the ubuntu channel | 12:12 |
| brad__ | I always run ubuntu, but want the windows on there so I can use my cad program | 12:12 |
| kuba7447 | brad__ , do u want to dual-boot ? | 12:12 |
| brad__ | yes | 12:12 |
| MonkeyDust | brad__ windows will ruin grub and you'll have to repair it | 12:13 |
| mo0p | if you install windows first then ubuntu .. grub will work its magic too | 12:13 |
| kuba7447 | you can use windows in virtual machine | 12:13 |
| mo0p | also VM yes | 12:13 |
| mo0p | anyway... monkeydust... wrong drivers are being loaded... compared dmesg from working linux distro vs ubuntu ... and different drivers are being used | 12:13 |
| brad__ | im unfamiliar with VM | 12:13 |
| mo0p | thx | 12:13 |
| kuba7447 | do u have another hdd that u can install windows on? | 12:13 |
| mo0p | brad install windows first then ubuntu and select to install along side windows | 12:13 |
| brad__ | mo0p - I am trying to do that. But ubuntu is already installed and it doesn't allow me to boot from the windows disk when inserted | 12:14 |
| brad__ | got to do some work now...brb | 12:15 |
| kuba7447 | did u encrypted ubuntu when installing? | 12:15 |
| kuba7447 | i had the same problem when i encrypted linux mint | 12:15 |
| MonkeyDust | mo0p if you don't get an answer here, there are some 20 people in #linux-nfc | 12:15 |
| mo0p | brad__ google your laptop manufacture and how to select boot device on start up.. usually an F key will do this for you .. or just enter bios and adjust to book from disk before hdd | 12:15 |
| kuba7447 | *boot | 12:15 |
| mo0p | MoneyDust Thanks! i will go over there.. but i think i found the issue when compareing dmesg output after plugging in the nfc reader | 12:16 |
| kuba7447 | bye | 12:18 |
| lunagirl | hi | 12:21 |

| rapper97 | I installed Ubuntu with the bootloader on the /efi partition as the help wiki told me, but when I restart Windows Boot Loader does not start. | 12:28 |

| === King is now known as Guest4283 | ||
| rapper97 | That is correct - I was lead to believe it would recognize it and start automagically but that is not the case. | 12:38 |
| rapper97 | It just boots straight into Windows after the Linux instal. | 12:38 |
| EriC^^ | rapper97: ok, so you mean the windows boot loader does start | 12:38 |
| Guest4283 | I could'nt get you!! | 12:38 |

| rapper97 | Windows boots, but the big friendly screen that says "Windows Boot Loader" and presents me options does not appear. | 12:40 |
| EriC^^ | rapper97: it's probably cause of your bios being hardcoded to boot only the windows boot loader | 12:40 |
| rapper97 | That is the behaviour I would like. | 12:40 |

| EriC^^ | nevermind | 12:40 |
| EriC^^ | rapper97: ok, i don't know about the windows boot loader but i might be able to get ubuntu to boot instead of the windows boot loader, and you can choose to boot ubuntu or windows from there | 12:41 |
| rapper97 | No, I would rather use the Windows Boot Loader, not GRUB. | 12:41 |

| Guest4283 | I already have got four primary partitions on the partition that I wanna keep. | 12:46 |

| MonkeyDust | dididodo dropbox, box and others | 13:05 |
| dididodo | MonkeyDust, thank you, i'll check them out | 13:05 |
| stevenm | i'd hardly call dropbox "direct" | 13:06 |
| ctz`recover | EriC^^, you still here_ | 13:06 |
| MonkeyDust | dididodo tonido is more direct http://www.tonido.com/ | 13:07 |
| mo0p | scp ! lol | 13:07 |
| dididodo | MonkeyDust, thats a filehosting service, not what I'm looking for | 13:07 |
| dididodo | ok | 13:07 |
| mo0p | port forward tcp\22 to your pc ;) and allow him to scp a file over .. | 13:07 |
| Guest4283 | Would cloning work in this case?\ | 13:07 |
| stevenm | dididodo, this 'peer' of yours? is he/she on your network? if so just right click a folder you want to share and share it | 13:08 |
| ctz`recover | Hello guys, is it possible to run a system update and to reset grub on my HDD if I-m running from a liveusb right now_ | 13:09 |
| dididodo | stevenm, the 'peer' is my dad, it's not about networking. i just want him to upload once a document needed. i thought more about ftp or someting ... | 13:09 |
| dididodo | stevenm, we are not on the same network | 13:10 |
| stevenm | dididodo, ok well the easiest thing do is probably get your dad to download filezilla | 13:10 |
| dididodo | stevenm, ok | 13:10 |
| stevenm | dididodo, then if your PC has openssh-server installed... he can use SFTP on filezilla to send you the file | 13:11 |
| k1l | dididodo: when you start a ssh-server the other user can use scp or sftp to upload a file to your system | 13:11 |
| stevenm | you'll need to forward port 22 to your PC though from your touer | 13:11 |

| thebrownpup | guys, I read about checkinstall just now that it makes .deb files from the source file given | 13:11 |

| ctz`recover | hey EriC^^ sorry for taking so long but I couldn-t for my life to boot to recovery | 13:12 |
| dididodo | stevenm, thats more like it ... what ubuntu package do you recommend? i dont want to spend hours reading manuals for installing the ssh-server... | 13:12 |
| hrolf | k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11696175/ | 13:13 |
| stevenm | dididodo, if you install 'ssh' or 'openssh-server' it'll install the same thing | 13:13 |
| stevenm | dididodo, only the first one 'ssh' will also install the client - which your system will already have anyway | 13:13 |
| stevenm | no config is needed | 13:13 |
| MonkeyDust | dididodo sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 13:13 |
| stevenm | it'll start up straight away | 13:13 |
| vormux | dididodo: syncthing http://syncthing.net | 13:13 |
| thebrownpup | does it generate .deb file from the source file or it links the libraries with it too? | 13:13 |
| EriC^^ | workerbeetwo: command | xsel | 13:14 |
| EriC^^ | maybe | 13:14 |
| dididodo | stevenm, MonkeyDust,vormux ... thanks | 13:14 |
| k1l | hrolf: what ubuntu version are you on exactly? "lsb_release -d" will tell you | 13:14 |
| workerbeetwo | EriC^^: I dont mean jsut to pipe a commands output to somewhere. | 13:14 |
| thebrownpup | guys, I read about checkinstall just now that it makes .deb files from the source file given. The question is, does the generated .deb file contain the supporting libraries along with it, so that I can install it in another linux machine? | 13:15 |
| hrolf | k1l: Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS | 13:15 |
| stevenm | dididodo, your dad will need to connect to your external IP (see www.canihazip.com) using FileZilla and using SFTP... the username/password - best to use your own (the one you login with every day) - that way he'll be putting the file into the area you see in your home directory | 13:15 |
| EriC^^ | workerbeetwo: it will pipe it to the clipboard | 13:15 |
| stevenm | dididodo, either that or make him a user on your PC for him to log in over SSH with | 13:15 |
| workerbeetwo | EriC^^: I understand your suggestion. but its not what I want. | 13:15 |
| EriC^^ | workerbeetwo: command | xsel , then pressing shift+insert or middle mouse will paste the output | 13:15 |
| EriC^^ | workerbeetwo: what do you want? | 13:15 |
| k1l | hrolf: so did you add a PPA for virtualbox or where did it come from? | 13:15 |
| workerbeetwo | EriC^^: think of walking the history of the last commands by using the arrow keys, but it should be walking the lines on the screen that are already processed. | 13:16 |
| dididodo | stevenm, yes, i got it ... make him a guest user on my box thats a good idea | 13:16 |
| k1l | hrolf: well. i would suggest to run a "sudo apt-get update" and then see if that error is still there. | 13:16 |
| ctz`recover | EriC^^, is there any other approach I could try? apparently rebooting into recovery is not an option. | 13:17 |
| stevenm | so for the last time - does *ANYONE* have dropbox installed on their ubuntu here!? if so! is the icon you've got in the corner.... a) in your notification area or b) an application indicator | 13:17 |
| hrolf | k1l: I don't exactly remember. I had VirtualBox installed few years earlier :) | 13:17 |
| hrolf | k1l: Okay let me try. | 13:17 |
| EriC^^ | ctz`recover: not recovery, the older kernels | 13:17 |
| workerbeetwo | EriC^^: and then a way to copy a line to the clipboard. | 13:17 |
| ctz`recover | EriC^^, my motherboard as shift holding options which I cant turn off, so I cant trigger the advanced boot options on ubuntu to allow me to select an older ekrnel | 13:17 |

| stevenm | dididodo, right... so when he uploads his files will be in /home/dad/files and you'll need to nagivate from /home/yourself/ to his area - might need to add yourself to his group so you can view his files... this command will do that..... sudo usermod -a -G dad $USER (replace where it says dad) | 13:18 |
| EriC^^ | ctz`recover: chroot like we did before and edit /etc/default/grub to boot an older one | 13:18 |
| EriC^^ | then update-grub | 13:18 |
| k1l | hrolf: if that error is still there try: "sudo apt-get remove virtualbox-4.3". if that doesnt help we need to try the hard method afterwards | 13:18 |
| dididodo | stevenm, cool ...thx | 13:18 |
| EriC^^ | workerbeetwo: oh, no idea | 13:19 |
| dididodo | stevenm, i think i can work this out | 13:19 |

| ctz`recover | where can I check logs for these channels? i dont wanna keep bothering for command repastes | 13:20 |
| EriC^^ | workerbeetwo: you could grep for the line if you knew it | 13:20 |
| workerbeetwo | EriC^^: because stdout is on a file? | 13:21 |
| hrolf | k1l: Still there. Let me try removing VirtualBox then. | 13:21 |
| workerbeetwo | is it logged/loggable? | 13:21 |

| hrolf | k1l: What's the hard method? | 13:22 |
| k1l | hrolf: ok, try this: sudo dpkg -P --force-remove-reinstreq virtualbox-4.3 | 13:22 |
| hrolf | k1l: Now fine. | 13:22 |
| EriC^^ | workerbeetwo: you could send stdout where ever you want and then get the line you want some how | 13:23 |
| hrolf | I don't know what went wrong with VirtualBox. It was working fine. | 13:23 |
| hrolf | k1l: Anyways, I don't have any immediate need for it now. :) | 13:23 |
| hrolf | k1l: Thanks. | 13:23 |

| k1mmyyy | hey guys i'm going crazy here | 14:38 |
| Pinkamen1_D | cool | 14:38 |
| k1mmyyy | i have an sd card, but it won't let me delete the files from it | 14:38 |
| Pinkamen1_D | did you flip the little plastic part on the side to 'lock' possibly? | 14:39 |
| k1mmyyy | nope | 14:39 |
| Pinkamen1_D | I had mine mounted as a read-only filesystem somehow recently | 14:39 |
| k1mmyyy | i have an identical one that *is* working, and when i do it with that one, i can first delete the files in the file browser, and then they go to this hidden .Trash folder (but still take up space on the card), but i can get rid of them from there by doing rm /media/blablablah/* | 14:39 |
| kuba7447 | what card reader are you using? | 14:39 |
| Pinkamen1_D | If you want to perma delete just use Shift+Del | 14:40 |
| k1mmyyy | but with this one that's not working, when i try the rm /location one, it says "can't remove, read only file system" | 14:40 |
| k1mmyyy | hmm thanks i'll keep that in mind | 14:40 |
| tsoutseki | i know this is not a homework helping channel, but i need some help with C coding. someone msg me if you are eager to help (it is an easy thing). thanks | 14:40 |
| rypervenche | k1mmyyy: what happens if you try to touch a nee file on the SD card? what output do you get? | 14:40 |
| k1mmyyy | they have the same exact output of sudo fdisk -l and then ls -l /dev/theirlocation | 14:40 |
| cfhowlett | tsoutseki, not a homework site and not even the right channel. ask ##c | 14:40 |
| k1mmyyy | rypervenche, lemme check | 14:40 |
| lno1 | I'm trying to collect two environment variables from a curl command. I want both the HTTP code as well as the actual response content. | 14:41 |
| cfhowlett | tsoutseki, or #c++ | 14:41 |
| Pinkamen1_D | I got that filesystem issue with mine recently. I had a built in laptop card reader and an expresscard reader. When I moved the card from the build in to the express then it started working. | 14:41 |
| k1mmyyy | rypervenche, cannot touch, read only file system | 14:41 |
| k1mmyyy | i've also added myself to the disk group | 14:41 |
| Pinkamen1_D | Also functionality returned on both after I restarted | 14:41 |
| k1mmyyy | since that's what group it says in fdisk -l | 14:41 |
| k1mmyyy | Pinkamen1_D, it is also a built in SD card reader | 14:42 |
| michaliskasapas | hi | 14:42 |
| k1mmyyy | i'm just confused since the working one and non working one have the same filesystem, same group, same owner, same permissions | 14:42 |
| k1mmyyy | what's different? | 14:42 |
| Pinkamen1_D | You can try to manually umount it and mount -rw but when I tried that it still gave some error that it would not mount because it was explicitly read-only or something | 14:42 |
| Pinkamen1_D | My best guess for this is that the plastic lock thing it a bit glitchy but I could be midtaken. | 14:42 |
| michaliskasapas | sup guys!!!!!!!!!1 | 14:43 |
| michaliskasapas | :) | 14:43 |
| k1mmyyy | i tried remounting it using a command online, it didn't give an error but still didn't work | 14:43 |
| cfhowlett | michaliskasapas, not a social channel. ask your ubuntu questions | 14:43 |
| k1mmyyy | hm, lemme try fiddling with it i guess... | 14:43 |
| Pinkamen1_D | did you add the -rw stitch to the mount command? | 14:43 |
| michaliskasapas | e?? | 14:43 |
| Pinkamen1_D | switch* | 14:43 |
| k1mmyyy | Pinkamen1_D, i did sudo mount -o remount,rw /media/mydisklocation | 14:44 |
| k1mmyyy | can't i just like, sudo chmod stuff | 14:44 |
| Pinkamen1_D | I guess that translates to about the same | 14:45 |
| michaliskasapas | i love ubuntu! | 14:45 |
| Pinkamen1_D | no, because the filesystem being readonly changes you from touching any bits including the ownership ones | 14:45 |
| MonkeyDust | michaliskasapas thank you for sharing your deepest feelings with us, but stick to ubuntu questions | 14:45 |
| k1mmyyy | Pinkamen1_D, even if i use my root account? | 14:45 |

| k1mmyyy | hmm... | 14:51 |
| k1mmyyy | when i tried mount it said i have to... | 14:51 |
| Pinkamen1_D | but it would depend on how it is formatted | 14:51 |
| Pinkamen1_D | oh that sounds not too good, like it had trouble reading/dececting it | 14:52 |
| Pinkamen1_D | I would guess that SDs could be FAT32 but you could theoretically use many filesystems | 14:52 |

| compdoc | supersmilers, which packages? | 15:27 |
| sara_ | i remembered i have team viewer and i booted and put in my password and now i can log in and see desktop on my mobile team viewer app | 15:27 |
| supersmilers | Normally it would hang on configuring desktop packages that are kernel based like desktop-base. | 15:28 |
| supersmilers | How do I fix that without reinstalling Ubuntu Mate every time when it happens. | 15:31 |
| nicomachus | -f install? | 15:32 |

| k1l | supersmilers: can you pastebin some examples? | 15:33 |
| supersmilers | I always install those kind of packages through Synaptic Package Manager and my Virtualization Host client is Hyper-V | 15:34 |
| sara_ | bstarek i got team viewer on my machine and i can log in using team viewer app on my mobilephone | 15:37 |

| notevenandrew | Pici: thanks for the input, but i think you missed the context: The automount was working well, and it was mounting my device under /run/user/1000/gvfs/mtp:[blabla], i put some custom rules in udev, and this automount thing stopped working.

| LinuxNewb | herro | 16:57 |
| lotuspsychje | fgro: check apt-cache search brother, maybe your printers drivers show there | 16:57 |
| LinuxNewb | Why is ubuntu so bad | 16:58 |
| lotuspsychje | LinuxNewb: this is not the right place for this kind of opinions | 16:58 |
| BluesKaj | LinuxNewb, tell us what's bad so we can help you make it good | 16:59 |
| ImJune | I dunno | 16:59 |
| ImJune | I had my mousepad fixed | 16:59 |
| ImJune | I had to reinstall and now my "touchpad" rather is not working agian | 16:59 |
| BluesKaj | LinuxNewb, or are you just to complain? | 16:59 |
| ImJune | I went to /etc/default/grub | 16:59 |
| LinuxNewb | Well the fact that ubuntu is like the windows of the gnu world, they want to only make money | 17:00 |
| BluesKaj | here | 17:00 |
| fgro | lotuspsychje: i tried to install the printer, but there were no drivers available. i found instructions which included complex commandline instructions, but it didn't work. | 17:00 |
| bazhang | LinuxNewb, wrong channel | 17:00 |
| LinuxNewb | on top of that unity is trash | 17:00 |
| BluesKaj | LinuxNewb, then you're in the wrong place for that discusssion | 17:00 |
| ImJune | changed the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= as I did before | 17:00 |
| ImJune | but this fix doesnt work | 17:00 |
| ImJune | any more | 17:01 |
| ImJune | is there somekind of kernel bug or something I can fix? | 17:01 |
| lotuspsychje | !details | ImJune | 17:01 |
| ubottu | ImJune: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 17:01 |

| ImJune | how to do that? | 17:16 |

| lotuspsychje | ImJune: same way you set nomodeset, try no_acpi | 17:17 |
| ImJune | Ok I will try this | 17:18 |
| ImJune | shall I add exactly this ? GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset acpi_osi=\"Linux\"" ? | 17:20 |
| ImJune | as shown in your link? | 17:20 |
| lotuspsychje | ImJune: no, not the nomodeset | 17:20 |
| lotuspsychje | ImJune: try F6 at boot and get into boot options for no_acpi | 17:21 |
| ImJune | so don't alter grub from inside | 17:21 |
| ImJune | ? | 17:21 |
| ImJune | do all this at boot ? | 17:21 |
| lotuspsychje | ImJune: yes you can try from boot | 17:21 |
| ImJune | I cant | 17:22 |
| ImJune | doesnt give me that option | 17:22 |

| deadmund | reisio: thanks! | 18:18 |
| deadmund | reisio: What's the relationship between KDE and compiz? It seems that it's using compiz but not fully or something? I think that gnome 2 handled compiz the best but I've never dug into it with KDE (much less KDE 5) | 18:20 |
| xangua | deadmund: kde uses it's owm compositing efects (kwin) and Gnome Shell uses "mutter" I believe | 18:21 |
| reisio | yeah ^ | 18:21 |
| reisio | KDE probably has one, though | 18:21 |
| reisio | since that's basically an accessibility issue | 18:21 |
| reisio | ask #kde about it | 18:21 |

| angular_mike_ | It's a miracle that i've been able to navigate to chrome | 18:50 |
| angular_mike_ | by creating a new folder on desktop | 18:50 |
| angular_mike_ | how do I go about fixing this? | 18:50 |
| MonkeyDust | angular_mike_ spare the enter key, please | 18:50 |
| Inspiral | lol you're a helpful fellow MonkeyDust | 18:51 |
| Inspiral | use of the enter key helps convey the desperation angular_mike_ is expressing | 18:51 |
| Inspiral | imo | 18:51 |
| angular_mike_ | ok, sorry for flooding, I'm just really distressed as you can guess; s/security updated/software updater/ | 18:52 |
| Inspiral | angular_mike_, it seems like your desktop environment is messed up, | 18:52 |
| Inspiral | angular_mike_, if you create a new user account and login with that does everything show ok? | 18:53 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, what's your graphics card and what driver are you using. You could start with this http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/how-to-reset-compiz-and-unity-in-ubuntu.html | 18:53 |
| angular_mike_ | Inspiral: yeah, i've also noticed that maximized windows get glitches a their top and there is no top menu with stuff like 'File', etc | 18:53 |
| angular_mike_ | Inspiral: would logging in as guest be enough? | 18:54 |
| Inspiral | angular_mike_, try that link kostkon pasted | 18:54 |
| pavlos | Lunario, are you using samba? | 18:55 |
| Inspiral | guest might, i don't know. I was just suggesting to eliminate any configuration that's setup in your ~/ | 18:55 |
| === kpease_ is now known as kpease | ||
| Lunario | pavlos:no, ssh | 18:57 |
| angular_mike_ | kostkon: I'm guessing, I have to install the rest tool. Software Center doesn't seem to work anymore. I can install it via terminal, right? How do I open the terminal then? | 18:57 |
| pavlos | Lunario, I guess I dont understand your question ... you ssh to another box, now what? | 18:58 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, ctrl+alt+f1 to f6 to access TTY F7 to get back. what rest tool? | 18:58 |
| angular_mike_ | *reset tool | 18:58 |
| Lunario | i ssh'd into it via nautilus so that i can access the files in nautilus.. but how can i access the filesystem via terminal? i know i can ssh into it or use scp, but if the filesystem structure of the remote system has been "mounted" in nautilus (which seems to be the case) why is it not in /media or /mnt? | 18:59 |

| pavlos | Lunario, http://askubuntu.com/questions/412477/mount-remote-directory-using-ssh | 19:00 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, follow the 2nd method. | 19:00 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, or download it with chrome, then to install it sudo dpkg -i ***.deb or | 19:01 |
| wafflejock | Lunario, can use Ctrl+L to see the current path in nautilus when you have the server window open and see if it's mounted somewhere or just connected via samba or otherwise | 19:01 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, just download and run the script | 19:01 |
| Lunario | i am familiar with sshfs but I thought it might already be mounted but just not where I expected it to be... anyways, thanks | 19:02 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, or try the 2nd method, as I suggested already | 19:02 |
| angular_mike_ | kostkon: ok, i'm following the second methd. I've got an nvidia card for laptops, btw | 19:03 |

| kostkon | angular_mike_, is there any way you could open a nautilus window? | 19:11 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, like having a folder on your desktop you could click on. also try pressing ctrl+n | 19:11 |
| angular_mike_ | kostkon: yes, I managed to open it by creating a new folder on desktop | 19:12 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, gnome-terminal should be in /usr/bin | 19:13 |
| === kpease_ is now known as kpease | ||
| kostkon | angular_mike_, alternatively, you could download and run the script from the webupd8 page | 19:13 |
| angular_mike_ | kostkon: hmm I see no gnome-terminal in /usr/bin | 19:14 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, should be there | 19:15 |
| MonkeyDust | angular_mike_ type which gnome-terminal | 19:16 |
| angular_mike_ | MonkeyDust: it returns nothing | 19:16 |
| MonkeyDust | angular_mike_ where did you type it? is it ubuntu? | 19:17 |
| angular_mike_ | MonkeyDust: in TTY | 19:17 |
| angular_mike_ | MonkeyDust: yes, it's ubuntu | 19:17 |
| angular_mike_ | MonkeyDust: I've found a desktop shortcut to gnome-terminal and launching it yields `there was an error launching the application` | 19:18 |
| MonkeyDust | ok, then try installing it... sudo apt-get install gnome-terminal | 19:18 |
| angular_mike_ | MonkeyDust: alt+f4 works strangely. useful, because there's no 'x's for closing | 19:18 |
| MonkeyDust | angular_mike_ i'm not following you, what was your initial question? | 19:20 |
| angular_mike_ | MonkeyDust: ok, terminal runs now | 19:20 |
| angular_mike_ | MonkeyDust: um, my inital question was how to fix this mess | 19:20 |
| MonkeyDust | angular_mike_ specify "mess" | 19:21 |
| angular_mike_ | MonkeyDust: no quick launch tab and multiple hokeys not working | 19:21 |

| blz | Hello, how do I configure groups such that all newly-created subdirectories belong to a given group? | 19:23 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, either do setsid unity or if you want, reboot | 19:24 |
| blz | For instance, I have directory `A`. I want it and all its future children to belong to group `g`. | 19:24 |
| blz | how do I do this? | 19:24 |
| angular_mike_ | kostkon: it says that I need to run `setsid unity` next. When I run it I get ` execvp: No such file or directory`. Quick google shows people reinstalling gcc++ to fix that. Should this apply in my case? | 19:24 |
| angular_mike_ | kostkon: wait, installing execvp | 19:25 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, i guess you could reboot. although your system exhibits some peculiar symptoms, like the initial problem when trying to start the terminal and now this | 19:26 |
| angular_mike_ | kostkon: ok, ill reboot then | 19:26 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, i don't really know what to make of this | 19:26 |
| angular_mike_ | kostkon: hopefully, I'll be able to launch chrome after that | 19:26 |
| angular_mike_ | LETS GO | 19:26 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, do it :P | 19:27 |

| angular_mike_ | kostkon: before installing updates I was messing with virtualbox, but nothing more dangerous than `apt ge install/remove` no flags like `purge` | 19:32 |

| angular_mike_ | kostkon: ok, reinstalling the ubuntu desktop seems to have fixed the problem, at least the symptom, thanks you | 19:39 |
| angular_mike_ | I'm still worried about the missing programs | 19:40 |
| angular_mike_ | any idea how to survey the damage? | 19:40 |
| EriC^^ | what programs angular_mike_ ? | 19:40 |
| angular_mike_ | EriC^^: my gnome-terminal had magically disappeared for once | 19:40 |
| EriC^^ | was it still installed in dpkg -l ? | 19:41 |
| EriC^^ | or apt-cache policy ? | 19:41 |
| kostkon | angular_mike_, good news, you could check your logs for any possible damage. make sure you check your dpkg.log and see what packages were installed / removed during in the last couple of days i guess | 19:41 |
| angular_mike_ | EriC^^: also, I recall ctrl+alt+T stopping opening terminator instead of terminal right before restart after installign the updates | 19:42 |
| kostkon | minus during* | 19:42 |
| angular_mike_ | kostkon: will do | 19:42 |
| angular_mike_ | I have to say, this is not the first time I messed up my Ubunty by messing with Virtualbox | 19:43 |
| heeen | I'm on kubuntu and for some reason powerdevil stopped working | 19:43 |
| heeen | this setup is like 2 hours old | 19:43 |
| heeen | there was a conflict earlier and I had to do apt-get install -f | 19:43 |

| === kpease_ is now known as kpease | ||
| angular_mike_ | ok guys, remember the problem I had about half an hour ago | 20:22 |
| EriC^^ | nicomachus: what options did you use for dd? | 20:22 |

| nicomachus | no options, EriC^^ | 20:23 |
| nicomachus | I thought it was just kinda odd that it was 1B | 20:23 |
| EriC^^ | nicomachus: ok, i'm not sure if it matters | 20:23 |
| angular_mike_ | All I had to do was install this package: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.3.28/virtualbox-4.3_4.3.28-100309~Ubuntu~raring_i386.deb | 20:24 |

| lotuspsychje | PCatinean: hit TAB | 20:50 |
| angular_mike_ | mitfree: then I guess you're looking for Ubuntu community support, not from Canonical | 20:50 |
| PCatinean | lotuspsychje, it's already done, now I want to revert it :( | 20:51 |
| PCatinean | I read about it only after | 20:51 |
| angular_mike_ | mitfree: they've still got a forum, last time I checked | 20:51 |
| k1l_ | mitfree: its your choice if irc, mailinglists, ubuntuforums, discourse or askubuntu suits you best | 20:51 |
| angular_mike_ | mitfree: as well as an IRC chat | 20:51 |

| PCatinean | lotuspsychje, when installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras, I accepted EULA whatever and it installed the fonts and change the fonts, now I just want to remove those | 20:56 |
| EriC^^ | PCatinean: try sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-restricted-extras , maybe | 20:57 |
| PCatinean | that will remove everything except the fonts EriC^^ from what I see in the list | 20:57 |
| lotuspsychje | PCatinean: why dont you change the font to what you like? | 20:57 |
| PCatinean | gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse libavcodec-extra libfaac0 libmjpegutils-2.1-0 libmpeg2encpp-2.1-0 libmplex2-2.1-0 | 20:57 |

| PCatinean | lotuspsychje, I just want the standard one, dunno which one is that | 20:57 |
| PCatinean | OerHeks, that sounds like something better | 20:58 |
| lotuspsychje | PCatinean: the fonts, are just extras mate | 20:58 |
| PCatinean | it said installing fonts, not sure if it updated as well | 20:58 |
| lotuspsychje | PCatinean: some microsoft fonts in there, some users need | 20:58 |
| lotuspsychje | PCatinean: that doesnt mean its gonna change font in your ubuntu | 20:58 |
| OerHeks | some programs want those, especially those containers | 20:59 |
| MonkeyDust | deformations in documents may occur, if you don't have the same or right fonts | 20:59 |

| brandonp | I like it a lot. | 21:30 |
| k1l_ | brandonp: good to hear | 21:31 |
| brandonp | I have a question though, so the first thing I did was "sudo apt-get update" | 21:31 |
| brandonp | then "sudo apt-get upgrade" | 21:31 |
| izi | please help me to learn english langauge | 21:31 |
| === Dhs92 is now known as Yukitteru | ||
| k1l_ | izi: try in #english | 21:31 |
| brandonp | then I typed "sudo apt-get install" -- does this last install prompt do anything? | 21:32 |
| izi | sudo apt-get install english | 21:32 |
| izi | not work | 21:32 |
| brandonp | or do i have to preface it with a package, like "sudo apt-get install git" | 21:32 |
| k1l_ | brandonp: no that will not install something. you need to specify a package (or several packages) | 21:32 |
| brandonp | ah ok thanks | 21:32 |
| EriC^^ | brandonp: if you want to upgrade all the packages, including the kernel, use sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 21:33 |
| brandonp | ohhh | 21:33 |
| === Yukitteru is now known as Yukkii | ||
| k1l_ | brandonp: and with "just" apt-get upgrade you might miss some updates. better use "sudo apt update" and "sudo apt full-upgrade" | 21:33 |
| brandonp | ok thanks | 21:33 |
| brandonp | "sudo apt-get install -f" doesn't do anything either right? | 21:34 |
| k1l_ | they tried to reduce the confusing naming with the new apt command | 21:34 |
| k1l_ | brandonp: dont use that out of nowhere. | 21:34 |
| brandonp | Oopa | 21:34 |
| brandonp | Oops* | 21:34 |
| k1l_ | that install -f is needed if something went wrong and you want to force (-f) the install | 21:34 |
| brandonp | Ah ok. I w as just typing in random prompts trying to fix my wifi. But I just installed that kernel you told me about and it fixed it. Lol. | 21:35 |

| TheChips | years ago, I used to use ubuntu, but I didn't use the latest version because the latest version ran a little slower. nowadays, which version of ubuntu do folks use when they want a recentish, but low resource usage ubuntu for their crappy ancient netbook? | 21:36 |
| EriC^^ | ( and tries to fix them brandonp ) | 21:36 |
| brandonp | Understood, thanks EriC^^ | 21:36 |
| k1l_ | !lubuntu | TheChips | 21:36 |
| ubottu | TheChips: 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. | 21:37 |
| EriC^^ | brandonp: no problem | 21:37 |
| k1l_ | TheChips: and then start with the 14.04 LTS version | 21:37 |

| k1l_ | _NOLUNCH: ubuntu phone? | 21:39 |
| TheChips | fair enough, buzain . there was a noticable performance difference between versions, at the time. I think it was 10.04 or something | 21:39 |
| buzain | TheChips: as k1l_ suggested, use the LTS version | 21:40 |
| TheChips | yeah, I'll try updating to 14.04, thanks you two | 21:40 |

| Jordan_U | TheChips: Which flavor of Ubuntu 14.04 did you decide to use? | 21:43 |
| thomedy | okay.. so i think i have gotten to the bottom of my issue... or at least i hope... im running ffmpeg from a website... right now its local and the file name is nothing that is inputed from the user.. so just for a second. lets suspend our assumptions that it is unsafe | 21:43 |
| thomedy | my question is this.... i think i am not getting my output file.mp4 or whatever because my browser is running as www-data and has no permission to run ffmpeg | 21:44 |
| thomedy | am i right? | 21:44 |
| thomedy | how close to the truth is that | 21:44 |
| Jordan_U | thomedy: ls -l $(which ffmpeg) | 21:45 |
| thomedy | so you are saying i should type exactly that into command line | 21:45 |
| Jordan_U | thomedy: Yes. It will show you, among other things, the permissions for the ffmpeg binary. Unless you're doing something very odd it should be executable by all users. | 21:46 |
| thomedy | iit is in usr/local/bin | 21:46 |
| gt8ost4l | does anybody know how to get back the status bar in ubuntu 15.04 | 21:46 |
| thomedy | and i compiled exactly how ffmpeg.org page said to | 21:47 |
| thomedy | it is from source code on ffmpeg.org or whatever | 21:47 |
| Jordan_U | thomedy: Why did you compile from source at all? | 21:47 |
| thomedy | because my ubuntu software center wasn't working | 21:48 |
| k1l_ | depending on the ubuntu version used ffmpeg is not in the repos. avconv is always in the repo | 21:48 |
| thomedy | it was lacking differnet dependencies and i couldn't access the h264 | 21:48 |
| thomedy | and all my googling said ffmpeg was the most reliable method | 21:48 |
| k1l_ | thomedy: could use the fork of ffmpeg "avconv" | 21:48 |
| thomedy | avconv would hav ebeen fine but very few google searches pointed to avconv in comparison with ffmpeg | 21:48 |
| thomedy | so thats what i did | 21:49 |
| thomedy | can avconv get h264 and back again | 21:49 |
| Jordan_U | thomedy: Yes. | 21:49 |
| k1l_ | !avconv | 21:49 |
| thomedy | can you tell me the command for it | 21:49 |
| thomedy | i will need h264 and flv | 21:49 |
| pedro__ | hi can anyone tell me how to stop the pulse audio sound server? | 21:49 |
| Jordan_U | pedro__: What is your end goal? | 21:49 |
| k1l_ | gt8ost4l: what status bar? the panel on the top edge? | 21:50 |
| gt8ost4l | no the bar that display the hard drive space | 21:50 |
| pedro__ | Jordan_U, its to put my condenser microphone working on skype, but pulse audio is on the way | 21:51 |
| k1l_ | thomedy: i dont know what you want to do at all but here is the manpage: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/avconv.1.html | 21:51 |
| k1l_ | gt8ost4l: where was that bar? i dont know what you are talking about. ubuntu doesnt have that as a standard | 21:52 |
| luvenfu | how i use sudo inside of a bash script? | 21:52 |
| Jordan_U | pedro__: What makes you think that pulseaudio is "in the way"? Skype *requires* pulseaudio. | 21:53 |
| josharenson | Not sure if this is the correct place to ask... trying to get lightdm-qt-greeter to run, and it seems that the greeter is not talking to the lightdm server. Are there env variables that need to be set? | 21:53 |
| pedro__ | Jordan_U, yes, but at skype sound settings i used to have "samsom usb microphone" option | 21:53 |
| gt8ost4l | k1l_ didnt you use ubuntu 12.04 it had it there in the taskbar | 21:53 |
| MonkeyDust | luvenfu same as when you type it... you can use 'sudo true' in the beginning of the script | 21:53 |
| pedro__ | Jordan_U, thats the option thats going to give me recording sound at skype, i used to have that working | 21:54 |

| brandonp | should I use "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" or "sudo apt dist-upgrade" ? | 21:54 |
| k1l_ | brandonp: sudo apt full-upgrade | 21:55 |
| brandonp | Ok, thank you. | 21:55 |
| k1l_ | brandonp: that combines the old "sudo apt-get upgrade" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 21:55 |
| brandonp | Two for one? Nice | 21:55 |
| brandonp | Is there any reason why I should just use sudo apt upgrade without dist? | 21:56 |
| pedro__ | Jordan_U, could you gie me a hint on a good gui to configure puse audio working with my usb micro? | 21:56 |
| k1l_ | when saying dist-upgrade some people still think it will upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10. so they got scared to run that command | 21:56 |
| k1l_ | brandonp: apt-get upgrade will not install new packages, only update packages. but for some updates you need to install new packages (like kernel updates etc) so that cant be installed. | 21:56 |
| brandonp | k1l_: Ah okay, I see, it's just more control | 21:58 |
| k1l_ | brandonp: the reasons are historically (from 10-15 years ago) and are not used like back than today. so the old differences just confuse today | 21:58 |
| k1l_ | so "apt" instead of "apt-get" is more uptodate | 21:59 |
| brandonp | I understand now. 3/4 of the tutorials on the internet I'm reading use "apt-get", hah. I guess they're just used to it? | 22:00 |
| k1l_ | brandonp: well, apt is just 1year old in ubuntu. | 22:00 |

| Pazooza | I have a crypt-luks 1tb drive with no showing partitions in gparted. Why does update say there is not enough room in /boot? I don't see a partition for that. I have 900gig free. | 22:31 |
| Bashing-om | Pazooza: What does terminal command ' df -h ' tell you about "/" ? | 22:33 |
| Jordan_U | Pazooza: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l" and "df -h". | 22:33 |
| Pazooza | Never mind, I see mount point /boot 243 meg size. | 22:33 |
| Bashing-om | Pazooza: Try terminal command ' sudo apt-get autoremove ' to remove old kernels to free up some space . | 22:34 |
| Pazooza | I actually used gnome-commander in root mode to delete the old kernels and headers. | 22:36 |
| Jordan_U | rapper97: If the directory /sys/firmware/efi/ exists then you're booted via UEFI, and the installer will therefore try to install for UEFI. | 22:36 |
| Pazooza | Do you suppose I could resize the /boot partition larger? | 22:37 |

| nicomachus | output of dmesg | tails: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11698908/ | 22:38 |
| Jordan_U | rapper97: I'm not sure what you mean by "in the mounted filesystem". Literally running "[ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS" will tell you if you're booted via UEFI. | 22:39 |
| nicomachus | that line about bad geometry? | 22:39 |
| rapper97 | Jordan_U>> In the file system of the live CD/installer. | 22:39 |
| Jordan_U | rapper97: Yes. | 22:40 |
| rapper97 | jordan_u ty | 22:40 |
| Jordan_U | rapper97: You're welcome. | 22:41 |
| rapper97 | Will this directory also appear on the resulting instal, Jordan_U? | 22:43 |
| Jordan_U | rapper97: Yes. Pretty much any time you have a GNU/Linux system that has been booted via UEFI that directory will exist. | 22:45 |
| rapper97 | So... is it, like, "virtual?" In other words, if it did not appear on an instal before, might it now? | 22:46 |
| rapper97 | if I rebooted in UEFI mode? Or does its absence mean it wasn't installed in UEFI | 22:46 |
| rapper97 | and thusly it can never be there. | 22:47 |
| rapper97 | ? | 22:47 |
| Jordan_U | rapper97: Everything in /sys/ is "virtual". It's a way that the kernel communicates with userspace. The files exist only in memory, they are not ever stored on disk. | 22:47 |
