Dr_Dan_seeing oddness in 14.04 LTS with suspend/resume.  after resume i get login and then complete login only to get to a black screen.  nothing escapes black screen accept another quick press of the "POWER" button.  then i get another login screen00:11
Dr_Dan_this is on a ASUS laptop00:12
=== Guest49280 is now known as Fraj

daftykinsDr_Dan_: check your user's ~ for any files not owned by you, then consider renaming .config to .configold00:16
Dr_Dan_hmm.   the whole .config directory?  thats a lot of stuff to basically throw out00:20
daftykinsDr_Dan_: you're just testing, which is why i said rename.00:20
Dr_Dan_ok.  gotcha00:20
daftykinsDr_Dan_: but you checked ownership first right?00:20
Bashing-omDr_Dan_: Humm .. Graphics driver not loadong on 1st attempt ?? On that 1st attempt; -crl+alt+F1 to gain a console. terminal command ' sudo lshw -C display ' In the configuration line what driver is loaded ? repeat after the desktop is gained, now what driver is indicated ?00:20
Dr_Dan_checking00:20
Dr_Dan_Bashing-on,   its just intel HD graphics00:21
Bashing-omDr_Dan_: That theory of mine is out the window, as Intel "just works" .00:22
Dr_Dan_its weird that only happens after resume.  i get a login (logind?)  but after login it goes black.  only thing that gets me thru is the second press of POWER button which produces a another login00:23
=== AntiSpamMeta_ is now known as AntiSpamMeta
Dr_Dan_then at 2nd login i can get thru to desktop00:23
daftykinsoh this is post sleep, ok00:23
daftykinsnot cold boot?00:23
Dr_Dan_nope.  never cold boot00:24
daftykinsah my ideas are pretty much irrelevant then00:24
daftykinsbut won't hurt00:24
Dr_Dan_i feel like there are two sleep (hibernate)  processes going.   then one gets cut-off midstream by the other which is faster at bringing the laptop down.   next when the laptop comes back up,  that seconds sleep process "thinks" it did not finish its job and tries to take the laptop down to s4/s5 again00:25
daftykinsi would read some logs before making up stories like that :)00:26

Dr_Dan_ok.  so closing the lid is one kind of 'sleep request'  but  choosing 'suspend to ram' from logout menu is another.  i am  correct?00:33
Dr_Dan_*am i correct?00:34
daftykinssimple test, disable sleep on lid close00:34
Dr_Dan_i think i got it00:34

acro458Logged in as "user". Forgot root password. Want to change root password. Type in "passwd root", says I cannot change root password. Type in "sudo passwd root", asks for user password. Type in user password. Asks for new password twice (doesnt specify which user it is changing). Changes root password.....I thought this was not supposed to work?01:23
majabeen runing say ssyetm same laptop for years01:23
daftykinsthere is no root password.01:23

acro458yes01:24
majaDr_Dan_: say while i have you for some reason the main admin pannel has lost its pannels01:24
majaarlen: i think in ubuntu there is no root account so no root pass01:24
majasorry wrong person01:25
arlen:)01:25
acro458there IS a root account.. You do "su -" and it logs in as root01:25

majaDr_Dan_: dankie !01:35
Dr_Dan_nath3lf, ever use Clonezilla?01:36
Dr_Dan_its like Ghost01:36
SchrodingersScat!cloning | nath3lf , maybe also see !backup01:36
ubottunath3lf , maybe also see !backup: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can use the !software package "apt-clone" - See also !automate01:36
SchrodingersScatthat's not it...01:37
Dr_Dan_lol01:37
Dr_Dan_nath3lf, try clonezilla01:37
SchrodingersScatif you already have a ubuntu liveusb hanging around you can do the same things, depends on what you want01:38
Dr_Dan_get the system the way you want it,  i.e.  with all the programs,  and accessories installed,   then  use clonezilla to make a prestine copy.01:38
Dr_Dan_SchrodingersScat, some things are just easier to use01:39
Dr_Dan_especially if you already know ghost and such01:39
Dr_Dan_Dafonz, sorry.  i guess no one knows much about the ssh keys.   i hope you find an answer.   you can ask on monday when there's way more ppl around01:41

ianorlinopen source or flrgx kaell and what card05:25
winstonsmithI know AMD/ATI has...issues with Linux drivers, but I've always gone NVIDIA/Intel05:25
kaellPref-Monitors says to use my vendors tool instead... when i say yes, it opens nvidia x controls05:25
kaellcurrent card is ati hd687005:25

winstonsmithIt's not. You're going to want to switch to 14.04LTS05:29
al2o3-cryep, 10.04 isn't supported05:29

andrewjs18hi folks.  I have a script located inside a directory called cronjobs.  I'm trying to call that script to execute with a crontab, but when the scheduler runs, I think crontab believes the script is a directory and it's erroring out.  is there a way to fix it in my crontab?  this is the error it's emailing to me: /bin/sh: 1: /cronjobs/script: not found05:32
kaellchmod?05:32
kaellandrewjs18 - type "man chmod" and look into adding executable bit?05:33
andrewjs18here's the crontab: 30 4 * * * /cronjobs/script05:33
andrewjs18kaell, it is executable05:33
andrewjs18I can run the script manually without problem.  the problem is when I try to call it through crontab.  I think it believes /script is a directory rather than an actual file05:35
kaellwhy do you think it thinks it is a directory ?05:36

updategrubhey all, does anyone know how to enable remote connection to my transmission web GUI, when the machine it's on is connected through a VPN?08:20
histoupdategrub: never used it, I'd assume there'd be settings to allow remote connections08:21
histoupdategrub: from the documentation it looks like ip.of.transmission.machine:909108:22
updategruboh there is...but it listen on localhost:9091, but the local host for this machine is 10.10.10.54...I want to be able to access it through my public IP, I'm 'guessing' I need to port forward from my router to my laptop's ip (192.168.0.5), and then from there use iptables (perhaps?) to get 192.168.0.5:9091 forwarded to 10.10.10.54:9091 (wlan to tun-00??)?08:23
histoupdategrub: not sure on your vpn config. but if you can ping your laptop's ip while connected then it should just work. If you want to access from the outside, then yes you need to port forward 9091 to your laptop's internal ip08:25
updategrubthank you histo, at least that confirms what I suspected...but how do I go about doing it, never done any portforwarding at all, apart from the rather simple method on my router's admin pae08:27
updategrub*page08:27
histoupdategrub: If you've done that before I'm not sure I understand your question then.  What is the structure of your VPN?08:27
updategrubI don't understand..structure? Sorry, I'm really not up on all this :(08:28
histoupdategrub: You said you're using a vpn08:30
updategrubcorrect08:30
histoupdategrub: how is the vpn configured08:30
histoupdategrub: do you get an ip from the router or whatever machine is running the vpn?  is it on the same subnet?08:30
histoupdategrub: without knowing the details of your network it's kind of hard to tell you where the forwarding needs to be.08:31
updategrubit's BTGuard...I just downloaded the certificate and entered my credentials...it looks like the mask is 255.255.255.255 for tun0 and 255.255.255.0 for wlan..my laptop's the only device on the network using the vpn08:32
histoupdategrub: looks like they user openvpn for their setup. iptables then08:36
updategrubis there a good gui for iptables? I've had a look around..the syntact for cli is baffling, and the ones I've tried so far (fwbuilder and gufw) don't seem to be able to do what I want them to do08:38

=== Enissay_ is now known as Enissay
JunkHunkthe question is...how do I get it runnning?12:11
cfhowlettJunkHunk, best to read the nagios documentation12:12
kokutMonkeyDust: but clone will install only the packages installed from the sofware center? can i wipe the disk, boot via usb and copy the "computer" folder to my other disk or something?12:12
JunkHunk:-P thats the ocean12:12
JunkHunkI was looking for more ubuntu related info12:12
kokutJunkHunk: its not about the size of the boat, its the motion in the ocean.12:12
kaidelongaccording to "sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser" my default browser is set to firefox12:13
kaidelongbut when I invoke sensible-browser, chrome opens12:13
kaidelongfirefox is not an option in the default applications widgets12:13
kaidelongshould I report a bug?12:13
MonkeyDustkokut  not sure, haven't tried it12:13
JunkHunkindeed the ubuntu docs is quite clear I just need to know how to use nagios instead of those post install instructions...12:13
kokutMonkeyDust: :(12:13
JunkHunkhttp://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/mrtggraphs.html12:14
kokutill seriously have to take a look at all that because its going to take too much time to install and customize everything again12:14
MonkeyDustbrb12:14
JunkHunkI dont want to browse to http://<server_ip>/mrtg to see the graphs I would like to embed them in nagios12:15
bekksJunkHunk: So do it?12:16
JunkHunkhow?12:17
bekksJunkHunk: You need to look at the sourcecode that generates the graphics and embed it into nagios.12:18
kaidelongalright, so I tried going to firefox's settings and having firefox set itself to the default browser12:19
JunkHunkI am just opening the mrtg.cfg to figure out12:19
kaidelongnow what is happening is this:12:19
kaidelongclicking a link does invoke firefox, but the URL is not passed to it12:19
kaidelongbut System Settings > Details, does show firefox as an option now12:20

sybaritenMonkeyDust: i have this rather specialized machine called chromebook, it runs the google chrome OS. But there is a widely used script called crouton which allows you to run [some linux distro] in a chroot environment, in parallell to chrome OS. Appearently it's the bees knees12:25

MonkeyDust!uefi | Paul9212:50
ubottuPaul92: 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/UEFI12:50

Paul92MonkeyDust: can I format it as ext4 and set its mount point as /boot?12:52
trijntjePaul92: as a possible work-around: delete that partition, ubuntu installer should see the empty space and install there12:53

adam__PanV, the xev output has a chunk of data per key event, pressing a key is one event while releasing it is another. the details are in the output, and only you would know which one of those chunks correlate with the buttons you push. look for the 'keycode  ##'  part, and that's the keycode you will want to remap17:48

emthis is going to be a little tricky because my purpose for making the flash drive is to go and see about buying some old laptops that have no hard drives.18:55
emIn the old days you could throw in a live cd18:55
embut now im not so sure how you can test an old machine to see if it can run linux18:55
veyoonhi everyone, is there a way to preserve timestamps when copying files from a MTP device?18:56
Fuchsmeh, I hope that these will actually allow USB flash drives to boot. If yes, either the startup disk creator or the above commands manually will work18:56
Fuchsem: if you need to make some changes to the ISO as well, I recommend uck. It also offers an option to create a hybrid thingie that will work for USB sticks18:56

ozbrkby the way yes ubuntu 15 is greate I have no screen tearing or other issues google chrome rendering pages correctly and evert thing is fine except the bass and that dpkg issue.20:34
gagaliciousbekks : i need all of them having root access... i would like them to use root access but i dont want them to mess up root for every pxe client. which folders should i do read only? or can i just do read only to the system files?20:34
ozbrkI wish there is a powerful photo editing tool. GIMP is not enough for you if you are a photographer :(20:34
bekksgagalicious: Either you grant them root access, or you dont want them to mess up the image for all of them.20:35

ozbrkI just tried  sudo su and it worked20:36
bekksozbrk: Dont use sudo su, use sudo -i or sudo -s instead20:36
ozbrkbekks: just testing a theory how I could get the root privilages if the dpkg is locked ?20:37
mablaebekks, Could you explain further ?20:37
gagaliciousgranting root access... to all pxeclients... is that wise?20:37
gagaliciouswith just one image i mean... which i cant do read only20:37
ozbrkbekks: Besides apt-update is working under thesudo su20:37
gagaliciousi thought i can do read only on nfs mounts20:37
bekksozbrk: sudo su is a bad idea, use sudo -i or sudo -s instead20:38
bekksgagalicious: granting root access to clients is not wise, no.20:38
k1lozbrk: mablae sudo su sets the wrong env. so use the sudi -i or sudo -s. else dont complain about stuff crashing or not working20:38
ozbrkbekks: can you explain why and what is the diference20:38
gagalicioushow do i speed up nfs? there's a nfs file caching right? i'm using nfs4... how do i configure it?20:38
k1l!sudo | ozbrk20:38
ubottuozbrk: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo20:38
bekksozbrk: The difference is the wrong environemnt which is used by sudo su20:38
ozbrkgiving root privilages to a root folder lol yes that seems a bad idea20:39
gagaliciousi need to run a particular command for all my clients that must use root...20:39
bekksgagalicious: Use sudo then.20:39
gagaliciousbut i dont want them to run additional commands. just 1 command20:39
bekksgagalicious: Configure sudo accordingly.20:39
gagaliciousbekks : i see. yeah... tradeoffs. thanks. good idea.20:40
gagalicioushow often does ubuntu 14.04 break for u guys ? and where does it break mostly? i'll avoid that application. i'm installing all my pxe client's software now...20:40
gagaliciousstarting with wine :)20:40
gagaliciouswine download is very long20:41
bekksgagalicious: I'll avoid wine.20:41
gagaliciousbekks : no choice. i need microsoft office ...20:41
OerHeks <gagalicious> how often does ubuntu 14.04 break for u guys ? never ?20:41
bekksgagalicious: USe a virtual machine instead.20:41
gagaliciousOerHeks: not the server version i mean... i'm using desktop version. i'm sure some applications will break20:42
gier_dogagalicious: sometimes I break it. then I fix it again.20:42
gagaliciousbekks: vm is too slow... :I wine20:42
gagaliciousgier_do: ok.20:42
bekksgagalicious: Use reasonable hardware then.20:42
OerHeksI considder that as FUD20:43
gagaliciouspxeclients... do you guys have a guide on how to speed it up? it's over a gigabitlan... i understand the server side needs ssd etc... but that's about all the limits u can stretch with pxe clients... anything i can tweak more? where's a good guide for this? i've finished reading the diskless ubuntu installation guide20:44

stiv2kMonkeyDust: do you use bybou20:45
stiv2kbyobu20:45
bekkslinuxr: By using checksums.20:45
gagaliciousi mean... i was thinking of slurping the os into memory for my pxeclient and using only the nfs root for saving persistent things.20:45
k1lozbrk: when the software is not native for linux see wine. for issues with wine see #winehq and their database20:45
ozbrk#winehq noted thank you mate20:46
linuxrbekks, I mean, is it ensured that no "man in the middle" can provide modified packages and checksums?20:46
sgoblinlinuxr: uses gpg keys20:46
k1llinuxr: iirc packages are signed20:47
bekkslinuxr: You cannot ensure that, technically. Having enough money, it is technically possible.20:47
bekkslinuxr: But chances are very good, that the existing signing mechanism are sufficient.20:47
zykotick9bekks: if you check "apt-cache depends apt" you'll also notice gnupg being listed...  *-keyring also possibly?  more then just checksums.20:48
sgoblinlinuxr: you can find the keys in Software and Updates, Authentication20:48
sgoblinSoftware and Updates is in software-properties-gtk package20:49
linuxrsgoblin, bekks , so each package is download is signed and checked against a locally cached key before installation?20:50
JinjaNinjaAny reason why my computer volume is all the way up, but Ardour volume isn't responsive to my computer's volume? For instance, I put my computer's master volume on mute, but Ardour isn't effected by it. Is this possibly a groups issue? Or is this just a pulseaudio issue?20:50

Waldeinsamkeitany advice on updateing to the latest version of ubontu with out losing my data would be amazing22:42
Waldeinsamkeithttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades22:42

TooFast4Uwhen installing ubuuntu i have to creat a partition for swap space ! how large should i make this ?22:43
kostkonWaldeinsamkeit, you only need to go from 13.10 to 14.04, otherwise just backup your data and do a clean install of 14.0422:43
adam__TooFast4U, generally the same as your total physical memory amount. the installer should do that automatically22:43
Waldeinsamkeiti have installed the the update-manager and update-manager-core packages22:43
adam__and chill out, man. i'm playing FF7 over here. jenova battle requires attention22:44
Viking667TooFast4U: It used to be twice your RAM, that's not quite the case any more. I'd say start with 2Gb, and see what others here say.22:44
MalgorathTooFast4U depends on your amount of RAM, usually if you have 16GB of ram, you make a 16GB swap, but 4G is usually enough for most average users22:44
TooFast4Uadam so if i have 1dg ram then 1gb of swap space ?22:44
kostkonWaldeinsamkeit, have you already tried following the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades and failed22:44
adam__if you only have 1g ram, i'd do 2g swap22:44

stiv2khi, for some reason my computer will not enter suspend mode when screen is locked. for example, it locks screen after 10 minutes idle. if i set it to suspend after 5 minutes idle, it works, because screen has not locked yet. but, if i set to suspend after 1 hour idle (what i really want), it never suspends, because screen locks after 10 minutes, then inhibits suspend forever until unlocked. any advice is appreciated, thanks22:46
* Viking667 drops out22:46

RemobothAnyone know how I would disable my laptop's firewire port in order to prevent a memory dump attack?23:47
Bashing-omJohnny_Linux: Maybe nothing.. but often times a proprietary graphics driver has been installed, That driver is built against the currently installed kernel, and whn the kernel is updatd that driver is broke .23:47
Johnny_Linuxi dont remember him saying anything about it23:47
Johnny_Linuxnow, hes confused23:48
adam__Remoboth, i don't have anything with firewire, but you could probably get away with modprobe -r  the right driver23:48

RemobothTI- What would I Input in the terminal?23:50
TJ-Remoboth: that won't stop an insmod though, so if you want to protect the host remove the kernel modules from /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/firewire/23:51
RemobothTI- By remove, you mean just delete them/23:51
adam__Remoboth, you could play it safe and rename them instead23:52
TJ-Remoboth: Yes, and see see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Loadable_Modules#Blacklisting_Modules23:52
TJ-adam__: That won't help23:52
adam__or would it just load the renamed ones?23:52
adam__ah23:52
TJ-adam__: when depmod is run it'll rebuild the module alias caches and just point to the new name23:52
TJ-adam__: drivers are matched based on the PCI/USB/whatever device IDs they claim to support23:53
adam__so it just kinda loops through those files and does it for whatever it finds, then?23:53
RemobothHm.23:53

RemobothI am sorry I am being so particular... I am new to Linux.23:57
RemobothIt seems amazing but not very intuitive to a lifelong Windows user.23:58
RemobothApologies.23:58
