nubuntuSergioEDuran1: cinnamon is not even built by canonical, nor in every release, you need to research bro.00:00
nubuntuSergioEDuran1: I would run a live of a release that has it in the repos, load it and look around. You want a setup supported my someone be sure it is here.00:03
dj3000i just tried tinkering with the boot order, and no luck.00:06
dj3000mtn, is it possible for me to re-install ubuntu without booting from the disk?00:07
SergioEDuran1nubuntu: thank you so much00:07
nubuntuno prob ;)00:07
dj3000hmm, maybe I can http://askubuntu.com/questions/484434/install-ubuntu-without-cd-and-usb-how00:09
squintydj3000,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot  or http://www.plop.at/en/bootmanagers.html  if you have a spare cd kicking around00:11

histodj3000: what are you trying to do?00:27
dj3000histo,reinstall ubuntu without booting from a thumb drive or cd00:28
histodj3000: why?00:28
daftykinspointless task of a users own invention, buy a flash drive.00:29
dj3000daftykins, my flash drives aren' being recognized by bios00:31
dj3000but thanks for your cute comment00:31
daftykinsyou're making them up wrong by the sounds00:31
daftykinsor attempting to use an external USB chipset00:31
histodj3000: Have you tried a different port?  and What method idd you use to put the iso on the flash drives?00:32
daffy__test00:32
dj3000i am using the self same usb stick that i used to install this copy of ubuntu00:32
dj3000histo, yes i've tried 3 diferent ports now.00:32
dj3000and used ubuntu's "create bootble drive" application00:32
histodj3000: does it work on another pc?00:33
dj3000histo, i havent (nor cant) try00:33
histodj3000: so your boot menu doens't show the usb as an option at all or it doesn't boot from it?00:33
daftykinswhat system type is this? brand?00:34
nubuntunot sure you guys saw this poat,  <dj3000> should i enable/disable efi in the bios menu?00:34
dj3000histo, by "boot menu" do you mean grub?00:34
daftykinsBIOS boot device menu.00:35
histodj3000: no I meant your bios boot menu00:35
histodj3000: typically you press F12 or F10 while booting to display the boot menu and then you select your usb drive00:35
squintyfwiw some hp's also use Esc00:36
daftykinsthere are lots of combos, hence me asking what TYPE of system and brand :)00:36
dj3000yes00:37
dj3000i am using eh... a bios called "award"00:37
daftykinsno.00:37
daftykinsis this a laptop or desktop?00:37
dj3000and I've bootd into the boot menu, and sleected all types of usb options and put them ahead of the hard drive00:38
dj3000desktop. made it my self00:38
daftykinsso what brand of motherboard?00:38
dj3000eh...i'll have to check my amazon purchase history00:38
daftykinsright00:39
daftykinsand did you install the current Ubuntu via legacy (CSM) or EFI?00:39
dj3000um..? not sure. from a pen drive.00:39
daftykins!efi00:40
ubottuUEFI 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/UEFI00:40
dj3000here's my mobo (BTW It sux) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009FC3YJ8?00:40
daftykinsdj3000: so you've been plugging your flash drive directly into motherboard ports on the rear panel IO, yes?00:41
dj3000i'm gonna try adding the grub entry directly00:41
dj3000yes00:41
daftykinsnot into the screen, keyboard - or any other intermediary device00:41

Guest61610i have windows on RAID 0 dedicated.  Ubuntu is on a seperate drive, but gets stuck on the ata1 ata2 raid drives and never goes to desktop00:54
Guest61610i have to use recovery mode everytime, then from there i say continue and it works.00:55
histoGuest61610: gets stuck where? any outp-ut?00:55
Guest61610ya00:55
Guest61610let me grep it00:55
xenom0rphIm going to see the wiki ubuntu...thanks !!00:55
Guest61610sudo dmesg | grep ata00:56
daftykinssounds like you lack mdadm00:56
_schlerpscotty^ only eog crashes with that massive image the rest of my system remains fine!00:56
Guest61610stuff like this  ata1: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)00:56
spideyso even running update-grub under sudo, it creates the grub.cfg just fine, but the menu on boot still is the old one00:57
spideyI suspect it is updating grub in the wrong place00:57
Guest61610so im trying to put into grub something to ignore the raid drives alltogether so it wont hang up.00:57
_schlerpspidey do you have a seperate boot partition?00:57
spideynope00:57
_schlerpspidey, are you launching grub off the same harddrive your system is installed on?00:58
spideythe /boot/grub/grub.cfg looks good, uuids match00:58
_schlerpguest61610 do you mention that drive in your fstab?00:58
spidey_schlerp: yes, usually while in the /boot directory00:58
Bashing-omspidey: More than one hard drive; grub installed to each, and not changing the boot priority in bios ? maybe ?00:59
nubuntuspidey: You have a dula or more boot?00:59
nubuntudual*00:59
_schlerpyeah try booting from the same drive your / is on00:59
Guest61610no what u mean by fstab00:59
Guest61610i guess my question is how to ignore the raid array im not using.00:59
_schlerpfstab is a file that tells your pc what and how to mount partitions at boot00:59
Guest61610ok00:59
_schlerpits located at /etc/fstab01:00
spideythe new grub.cfg has two different kernels, the old one and a new one01:00
Guest61610so what vi /etc/fstab?01:00
bonhoefferah -- https://gist.github.com/tbbooher/262ee17721727015ea98 <-- can't install npm on ubuntu01:00
_schlerpspidey do you have multiple drives in your machine?01:00
_schlerpguest just a cat shoudl be sufficient01:00
spideyyes, and the boot drive is setup as a software raid01:00
Guest61610lol same issue sorta?01:00
spideymirror01:00
_schlerpso you have four drives?01:01
_schlerpraid for windows and raid for ubuntu?01:01

hogslammertest01:03
hogslammerhi this is me with the raid 0 ignore me please guy01:03
hogslammeri mean i did a cat /etc/fstab01:03
_schlerpwhat did it say? and whats your error message at boot precisely?01:04
hogslammerfirst it says ACPI PCC sucks or somehting like that.  icant get the info , but afterwards is the complaints on ata1 and 2 not responding, which are the raid drives i dont use at all in linux.01:06
hogslammeris there still such think as pastebin anymore?01:06
diddledandaftykins: dead disks?01:06
OerHekspaste.ubuntu.com01:06
diddledandaftykins: you love ata errors! :-p01:06
hogslammerno i think linux hates my controller or raid drives.   i got latest firmware too.01:06
daftykinsdiddledan: ;) not this time01:07
spideyis there a way in grub, without rebooting to see what it will load?01:07
daftykinsalready mentioned a lack of mdadm being installed01:07
diddledan:-)01:07
hogslammerwhat i cant figure out is why grub, advanced ubuntu, recovery, then click continue on in works fine.  still errors but im in now.01:07
_schlerpdaftykins its a windows raid that he doesnt even wqnt to mount thats giving him grief01:08
hogslammerexactly01:08
daftykins_schlerp: yes. i know.01:08
hogslammeri dont care if its mounted so if i specify it in grub then maybie it wont hang up on the testing of it.01:08
_schlerpand his ubuntu is on an mdadm array too which means he would have mdadm installed (i think...)01:08
daftykinsand what does mdadm do, put components in initramfs01:08
daftykinswell there are two people with two different setups so i'm not referring to the one with both RAID'd01:09
diddledanit's complaining about ata - windows-raid isn't at that layer01:09
diddledanwindows-raid is above ata01:09
_schlerpdaftykins sorry man, im getting confused i think!01:09
daftykinswould be nice if we were given a proper log.01:09
Bashing-omspidey: Not 'in' grub but ya can examin the file /boot/grub/grub.cfg and see what is set to boot .01:09
daftykinsdiddledan: windows or like, intel MSM?01:10
dfcnvtAny of you have problem with getting on Chrome browser and is on the facebook, while at the same time playing an embedded youtube to full screen. (It didn't show but transparented to Facebook's page)01:10
spideyBashing-om: that's the thing, my grub.cfg looks good, but that isn't the one that shows on boot01:10
diddledandaftykins: afaik all the moboraids are effectively softraid so unless it's a server unit with onboard raid from someone like adaptec or he's got a dedicated raid card then it'll be softraid or winraid01:11
Bashing-omspidey: That suggest to me to change the boot order .01:11
daftykinsyeah fakeRAID, but they could cause detection funkiness01:11
daftykinsanyway, it was a guess and was ignored so it hardly hurt.01:11
diddledan:-p01:12

horsemedsI was checking RAM, I was suspicious that the RAM i bought may have been fake, but the test itself showed no errors01:18
horsemedsdaftykins01:18
hogslammerso now that i know how to paste logs , anything you need to help me ignore the raid drives from lagging my boot time cause i dont use them at all unless i need windows booted up.01:18
daftykinshorsemeds: right, so SPD is serial presence detect - or the table of info on the modules which states what timings, voltages and speeds that RAM supports01:18
daftykinshorsemeds: so why do you think it's relevant to read the SPD contents from *both* OSs?01:19
dj3000__i'm stuck again guys.01:19
dj3000__how can i add a grub entry directly from an iso?01:19
horsemedsdaftykins yeah i solved the issue as i managed to get it to work on windows but i am gradually trying to stop using windowns is all01:19
diddledanwhy is it relevant to read SPD from *any* OS?01:20
daftykinshorsemeds: right but like i say, memory timings, speeds and voltages advised from the SPD tables are set in the BIOS - there is no point being able to read them from an OS as long as it's stable.01:20

daftykinschull: hrmm there are some disk errors and so on reported there, how did you get on with testing the guest session? did the same GUI programs run fine there?02:31

chulldaftykins, i didn't actually try that, after it logged him out, it let us log in as him.02:33
=== newbie is now known as Guest85453
daftykinschull: ah, i'd give it a whirl for sure. also, when a GUI program throws this error, if it's disk related you might see some output repeated at the end of dmesg, use "dmesg | tail" to see what's at the very end02:34
chulldaftykins, ok thank you very much!02:35

Trinityhow many of you use chrome?03:53
Trinityvs firefox?03:53
sambagirli use both03:53
lotuspsychjeTrinity: ask your real question please03:53
TrinityI had issues with my firefox w/ speed and I switched to chomium now.03:53
k0d3g3arTrinity, I use Chromium.... Chrome is too bloated for me03:53
Trinitynot sure if others are affected by the same 100% cpu bug03:53
lotuspsychjeTrinity: ubuntu version?03:54
Trinityyes03:54
k0d3g3arTrinity, I had same issue on Linux Mint 13 with Chrome03:54
Trinitysporadic 100% cpu use on one core?03:54
lotuspsychjeTrinity: wich ubuntu version please?03:54
k0d3g3arTrinity, yep, exactly.  Switched to Chromium and it all went away03:54
k0d3g3arTrinity, it has something to do with cache cleanup going haywire in Chrome03:55
k0d3g3arTrinity, iirc03:55
Trinityxubuntu but ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS03:55
sambagirlis seveas still about?03:55
Trinityk0d3g3ar, my issue was with firefox. i switched to chomium and it was fixed03:55
Trinityspecifically happening on amazon sites03:55
k0d3g3arTrinity, you might be able to stop it by going into settings, Advanced and setting hardware acceleration off03:55
lotuspsychjeTrinity: try cleaning your system with bleachbit and cleanout browser cache + install preload03:56
k0d3g3arTrinity, oh, I've had no issue with FF other than its a slow dog to use03:56

sambagirlcause i have some compiz issues03:57

ub-laptophi - im a live session user. I have this Dell Latitude E6400  but the wireless isn't working.  The wireless adapter is Broadcom Corporation BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless.  I found this but how I can do that in a live session to see if it works since it asks me to reboot -- http://askubuntu.com/questions/215194/wifi-is-not-working-on-my-dell-e640003:57

sambagirlwill chromium sync with all your chromebook apps like chrome does across platforms?03:58
lotuspsychjesambagirl: chromium is the right version for ubuntu, instead of chrome03:59
ub-laptoplotuspsychje, is there a way to see if it will work while in a live session? I haven't installed ubuntu yet. I guess it has to be something that doesn't make you reboot or else some way to put the right files into the unetbootin03:59
cfhowlettub-laptop, yes.  you can dpgk -i the required .debs in a live session and wifi should pop-up03:59
cfhowlettat least that's the case for the "no internet access" option03:59
lotuspsychjeub-laptop: i would suggest installing ubuntu 14.04.2 with ethernet cable on + enable updates during setup + 3rd party software03:59
k0d3g3arsambagirl, yes, it does.  You can sign into Google and it works much the same as regular chrome04:00
ub-laptopcfhowlett, oh i thought it would require a reboot and i assumed anything i install in a live session is gone after reboot04:00
cfhowlettub-laptop, everything WILL be gone after a reboot04:00
ub-laptoplotuspsychje, i need to see if i can get wireless working *before* installing it. This is a gift for someone else.04:00
Trinitylotuspsychje, i'm a bit confused. i dont think clearing browser cache will do that much of a difference. preload after reading about it sounds like something to speed up the linux system. but doing a hard test between chromium and firefox. chromium doesnt show the same 100% cpu issue04:00
lotuspsychjeTrinity: firefox should run fine on trusty..you need to find the bottleneck04:01
ub-laptopcfhowlett, im already connected to the internet on it with my LAN do i need to do dpkg -i or could I apt-get install it?04:01
lotuspsychjeTrinity: investigate syslog,dmesg,preload install, browser cache, doublecheck grafix drivers04:02
Trinityah, I see what you're getting at. okay04:02
cfhowlettub-laptop, if you have lan access, first try "additional drivers".  if that fails, then try the "no internet access" options described in the broadcom wiki.04:03

lotuspsychjeTrinity: you can also go test a livecd of ubuntu, and check if firefox goes 100% cpu from there04:07
Trinitylotuspsychje, perhaps i forgot to mention i'm a high powered user04:09
Trinityi'll have 50-75 tabs open at once04:09
Trinitygenerally*04:09
TrinityI don't really hit lag with firefox until it gets to 500 tabs04:09
Trinitybut when i visit some sites like amazon. i'd think its js heavy04:09
lotuspsychjeTrinity: then its not remarkable that you got lags04:09
Trinityill start hitting 100% cpu utilization on one thread04:10
Trinitybut the same issue doesnt exist for chromium04:10
lotuspsychjeTrinity: you cant read 50 tabs in one time right?04:10

vamsiampoluwhat should be the device for the bootloader install?09:05
michael_pi sort of prefer ubuntu better then windows09:06
michael_pwhat do you think09:08
vamsiampolushould i install the bootloader on the same partition that i am installing ubuntu on?09:08
vamsiampoluor should i just select the external hard drive and continue09:09
skbly7histo : thanks alot, seperator page started printing, just trying to add username in it reading link you gave. Awesome work by you. :D  You saved me09:09
AndChat|407721Hey folks09:10
michael_phey09:10
histomichael_p: this channel is for ubuntu related support questions. You can discuss other ubuntu related topics in #ubuntu-offtopic09:11
TJ-vamsiampolu: boot-loader should be on the physical disk that the PC usually starts with09:11
vamsiampolui am installing on the external hard drive,how can i ensure that i do not overwrite the existing bootloader??09:11
histovamsiampolu: if you're installing ubuntu on the external, install the bootloader on the external09:11
histovamsiampolu: the external hard drive has an existing boot loader?09:12
TJ-vamsiampolu: There is a choice at the end of the installation process that lets you select the device where the boot-loader should be installed09:12
vamsiampoluok,the external does not have a bootloader09:12
vamsiampoluit is just data09:12
vamsiampolubut it has multiple partitions,should it be the same partition...09:13
vamsiampoluwhere i install ubuntu09:13
TJ-vamsiampolu: If the boot-loader is installed on the external drive then when the PC starts you'll need to use its boot-menu option to select the external device for booting09:13
TJ-vamsiampolu: The boot-loader goes on the physical disk device not a partition.09:13
vamsiampolu@TJ got it09:14
TJ-vamsiampolu: That's for BIOS based systems of course; for UEFI based systems then the boot-loader will go in the EFI System Partition - usually the 1st FAT32 partition09:14
vamsiampolui have bios...i checked09:14
vamsiampoluhow large should the swap partition be,do i need a swap partition??09:16
histo!swap | vamsiampolu09:16
ubottuvamsiampolu: 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 info09:16
histovamsiampolu: before you get to far do you intend to use this external drive with windows also?09:16
vamsiampoluyes,i have 2 ntfs partitions on the drive09:16
TJ-vamsiampolu: To boot Windows from that drive, or just to store Windows data?09:17
vamsiampolui intend to use it for storage from windows09:17
reddit_I'm gonna cum.09:18
reddit_Oh, wrong channel.09:18
vamsiampolui dont need anymore windows,one is good enough09:18
TJ-vamsiampolu: So the Linux and Windows boot-loaders won't argue over which one gets precedence then. That's good.09:18
histoTJ-: the issue is windows won't see his partition that's after the linux one09:20
histovamsiampolu: you may want to put the ntfs partition first on the disk instead of ubuntu09:20
vamsiampoluhisto: the ntfs partitions are sda1 and sda2 while the Ubuntu partition is sda3,swap is sda409:21
histovamsiampolu: cool. windows will only see sda1 so you know09:22
vamsiampolutj:  removed and resized the partition,lost 1 MB :(09:24

Xat`hi guys09:34
Xat`why I am able to remove a file in my home dir , whereas this file is not mine ?09:35
Xat`that's happen only with files in my home09:35
SeveasXat`: because removing a file needs no more permission than write access to the containing folder. Ownership and permissions of the file are irrelevant.09:35
Xat`I don't have write right on it09:35
Xat`Seveas: I cannot reproduce it in /tmp09:36
michael_pcan xbuntu 11:10 still be run with the latest drivers09:37
SeveasXat`: because /tmp has the sticky bit set, which then makes ownership of the files count.09:37
Xat`you're right09:38
Xat`thank Seveas09:38
Kartagisback09:38
Seveasmichael_p: no. Ubuntu 11.10 has been unsupported for a while now.09:38
KartagisEriC^^: , so, any ideas?09:38
michael_pdam09:38
Seveasmichael_p: upgrade is long overdue. Support for 11.10 ended 2 years and 2 months ago.09:39
EriC^^Kartagis: yeah, you're using msdos and it only supports 2TB partitions09:39
michael_pwhat about 12:0409:40
EriC^^you can either make multiple partitions or convert the partition table to gpt Kartagis09:40
KartagisEriC^^: I have multiple partitions there, 2 and 109:40
Kartagis!lts | michael_p09:40
ubottumichael_p: LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04)09:40
EriC^^i know, but you can't make a partition that's more than 2TB09:40
EriC^^Kartagis:09:41
michael_pi like the look of the mac icon09:41
KartagisEriC^^: I used to be able to read it though, before I re-installed OS a few times09:42
KartagisEriC^^: then, my fs was reiserfs09:42
gagaliciousi'm having trouble creating "kickstart" for my pxe install of ubuntu. anywhere i can read more on this? it seems ubuntu uses preseed instead of kickstart?09:43
gagaliciousi'm basically stuck at this area : Configure the network : The name servers are used to look up host names on the network09:44
EriC^^Kartagis: i'm not following09:45
EriC^^Kartagis: you had other partitions?09:46
EriC^^Kartagis: try testdisk, and don't write anything until you get the partitions right or it will erase the current ones09:47
gagaliciousDoes anyone have a sample kickstart for ubuntu 14.04 install that i can reference?09:47
KartagisEriC^^: in the past 2 weeks, I tried a few distros and came back to my beloved Ubuntu, which I'd been using since hardy heron. before that, it was working fine and I could access it. but, my fs was reiserfs then and now it's ext409:47
starkilleri need help :( i cant shutdown xubunto it takes me to the loggin screen:P09:47
EriC^^sudo apt-get install testdisk, then sudo testdisk, and press p to view the files of the partitions it finds09:47
EriC^^Kartagis:09:47

javiercHello guys. I have a question. In a full windows environment. we use Domains. Whats the Linux equivalent? Or do a group of Linux machines use Workgroups?11:38
leeyaajavierc: i use NIS when i need something simple11:39
Seveasjavierc: the equivalent would be ldap+kerberos11:39
leeyaaor that if you need real equivalent11:39
Seveasleeyaa: the 90's called and want their software back...11:39
leeyaaSeveas: whats that supposed to mean? :D11:40
leeyaaits working, yes? :)11:40
Seveasno, it's not.11:40
javiercI was curious how two linux machines can easily share files with each other. In Windows that seems quiet easy. Installing Samba File server on both clients seems like an insane idea if your trying to share a few files between two workstations.11:41
ikoniajavierc: what do you think it is that shares windows file systems ?11:41
ikoniait's the microsoft version of s samba server and client11:41
leeyaajavierc: why not just nfs if you need only file sharing11:42
leeyaaikonia: any info how to get rid of mysql 5.5.41 ? :P11:42
javiercOk. I'll readup on NFS.11:42
ikonialeeyaa: according to that package - it's not there11:42
Seveasjavierc: the windows workstations have something equivalent to the samba server for file sharing. Though if it's pure linux: use nfs, or sshfs for a quick hack.11:42
leeyaaikonia: so what is the correct package ?11:43

skfaxGiven that I have one online computer and one offline computer and that I wish to install http://wiki.ros.org/jade/Installation/Ubuntu on the offline computer: What is the easiest way to install the packages on the offline machine?

agent_whitemusclez: Have you looked at the second post you made?12:46
agent_whiteThe response was, essentially... give us more information.,12:46

agent_whiteIs that the entire output of the upgrade command? if not, please consider posting more (or all) of it: you can use a hosting service such as pastebin if it is too long to include here directly. It may also be helpful to describe how you removed the old kernel images. "12:46

jaems924I have a quick question. HOw do I update and upgrade Ubuntu from the terminal? THe command12:47
musclezikonia i asked if you could clarify and you didnt respond.. and then i asked again12:47
Picijaems924: to a new release, or do you just want to upgrade the packages you have installed?12:47
ikoniamusclez: what do you need clarification on ?12:47
abhijeetsudo apt-get dist-upgrade @jaems92412:48
jaems924new release?12:48
musclezyou told me where to look but im not sure what you meant by that or hwo to access it12:48
Picijaems924: sudo do-release-upgrade12:48
agent_whitemusclez: Because we need more information to help. For instance, in the second post,  "I was try to free up space on my /boot by removing old Linux images". -- How did you come to this conclusion?  How did you remove these Linux images?  Why did you do this? What happened? What logs do you have? etc...12:48
ikoniamusclez: it's your box so you have acces12:48
ikoniaand the paste you showed me - you updated it on an old kernel12:48
ikoniaso you know what it is12:48
TJ-musclez: The PC has UEFI firmware. UEFI stores a boot-menu in the motherboard non-volatile RAM. At installation an entry is added to that menu my the installer. At boot-time that menu is displayed. If the boot-menu entries are wiped for any reason (bugs, user action, tools, etc.) then the PC won't 'know' about the installed operating systems.12:49
musclezive used synaptic and apt-get purge... all i did was follow ubuntu documentation for freing up space on my /boot drive12:49
musclezand now i cannot boot12:49
agent_whitemusclez: We cannot help you without sufficient information on your issue. :(12:49
TJ-musclez: In summary, it looks as if when you purged some of those unwanted kernels it triggered the tool "efibootmgr" to remove the UEFI boot-menu entry too, leaving the system unbootable12:50
TJ-musclez: Are you able to boot the PC using a Live ISO image, on USB or DVD ?12:50
musclezyes tj12:51
musclezand i can soemtimes run apt-get and dpkg commands from live usb12:51
musclezas root12:51
musclezmanytimes, however, it will crash12:51
TJ-musclez: In which case it should be possible to fix using a 'chroot'. Have you been trying to fix it by creating a 'chroot' environment ?12:52
musclezyes12:52
musclezi've established root and updated numerous times.. seomtiems wit works... soemtimes it does not12:52
TJ-musclez: So, the crashes happen whilst 'inside' the chroot?12:52
musclezyes TJ12:52
muscleznot the live usb itself.. just teminal and the ability to run future apt-get or dpkg commands until i reboot the live usb12:53
TJ-musclez: Great... all this information is very helpful to us in narrowing down the precise scenario12:53
musclezyes, i went over most of this yesterday and was more than willing to explain to people willing to listen12:53
TJ-musclez: Are you following some Wiki or Forum guide on how to create and use the chroot? If so, can you give us the link?12:53

random_user_587ok xangua, thanks ;)12:57
random_user_587have a nice day ;)12:57
TJ-musclez: OK, that looks good but I'd drop "sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot"  and instead, once in the chroot, do "mount -a" which will correctly mount all the fstab entries12:57
TJ-musclez: Doing that ensures that the EFI system partition is also mounted on /boot/efi/ (inside the chroot)12:58
musclezok i will run that.. but woudl that compenstate for the failing apt-get?12:58
rekedmirHey guys, is it possible to change the partition code of a partition with parted?12:59
musclezbecasue even when i have the right paths mounted.. i need to ensure that the stuff will install with12:59
rekedmirI want to change an vfat partition's code to 0xef00 (EFI)12:59
TJ-musclez: It depends on which command apt-get was executing ... for 'install' and similar, yes, that could have an impact12:59
musclezok.. i will try that now12:59
TJ-rekedmir: "sgdisk --typecode=<partitition-number>:<hexcode>"13:00
rekedmirTJ-: Does sgdisk come with parted or is it its own package? I would very much prefer not having to install another tool13:01
TJ-rekedmir: it's part of the gdisk package13:02
rekedmirTJ-: Hmmmm, don't have it installed. Anyhow, thank you for the suggestion13:03
TJ-rekedmir: parted is very patchy when it comes to editing an existing entry13:03

musclezjust to reiterate... terminal crashed when i tried to mount -a again... which probably was unecssary but i wanted to see if ther was output13:55
TJ-musclez: No, there shouldn't be it is just a mount point. But after "mount -a" the EFI System partition should be mounted there so you should see, at least, "/boot/efi/EFI/"13:55

DrunkenDwarfHi all, hoping someone can lend a hand, I have a clean version of Ubuntu 14.04 (running in a docker container) and I'm building the environment I need. I'm trying to install gcc-multilib through apt-get and im getting the error: "gcc-multilib : Depends: gcc-4.8-multilib (>= 4.8.2-5~) but it is not going to be installed". Does anyone know how I can fix it? some googling hasn't been helpful and I need a robust sorta fix cause this environment13:58
TJ-vamsiampolu: If the external drive is booting (that means loading the GRUB boot loader) and then GRUB is loading the operating system, such that the OS has a problem whilst executing the scripts in the initial RAM disk (initrd), then the issue is in the OS configuration rather than the boot loader13:59
pbxDrunkenDwarf, share the exact command you're running via a pastebin. also, have you run apt-get update?14:00
vamsiampolu-> TJ:   ok,it did boot up on an intel machine though14:00
vamsiampoluand i have managed to do this http://pastebin.com/Wx1ap02K14:01
TJ-vamsiampolu: Right, so there's something in the initrd configuration causing a problem. Does the initrd problem eventually lead to it starting a busybox shell where you can investigate?14:01
DrunkenDwarfpbx: Yes, im running update first and the exact command is "apt-get install -y gcc-multilib" It used to work fine but is now not14:01
vamsiampoluno,it just hangs there on my machine14:02
pbxDrunkenDwarf, what's different between the time that it worked and now?14:02
=== huw is now known as Guest23820
TJ-vamsiampolu: Have you tried starting with the Recovery option?14:02
vamsiampoluno14:03
DrunkenDwarfpbx no difference I can think of. the containers running off the exact same version of Ubuntu, being build by the exact same script14:03
vamsiampolu<vamsiampolu-> TJ i will try that and let you know14:03
TJ-vamsiampolu: That is always the first option to try. Amongst other things it will not hide the terminal so you'll see text from log messages as it progresses which, if they stop, should indicate roughly where the problem is14:04
vamsiampoluok14:04
TJ-DrunkenDwarf: what does "dpkg --print-foreign-architectures" report?14:05
DrunkenDwarfTJ- gimmie a sec, ill put it in the script and see14:06
DrunkenDwarfTJ-: Either nothing or the container its building in is silencing the output :/14:08
TJ-DrunkenDwarf: I assume you want -multilib to build for a different architecture?14:09
DrunkenDwarfIm running some software that requires the 32bit libs14:09
TJ-DrunkenDwarf: so the installation will need the i386 foreign architecture set. If this worked previously it should already be there, via "dpkg --add-architecture i386"14:12

chronos_hi guys, having problems with installing nvidia gtx 850m on ubuntu 12.04 freshly installed, on asus laptop, tried the wiki but after installing the driver still it does not recognize it, X runs with VESA now and the Additional Proprietary Drivers Software search finds no proprietary drivers... HELP?14:57
regeditsometimes my desktop/display goes bonkers, such as if plugging/unplugging a second HDMI monitor, or other unpolished scenarios. What is the definitive list of commands to restart KDE / restart X / restart plasma etc. ? (i'm running Kubuntu)14:58

chronos_regedit: sorry for the delay, I'm still keeping on searching solutions online, I'll try urs right away and let u know, thanks for answering15:05
chronos_regedit: waiting for the right command to try...15:06
chronos_regedit: here's my installed nvidia packages nvidia-common && xserver-xorg-video-nouveau-quantal 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu3-precise215:08
regeditchronos_: see if any suggestions come up in command line if you type nvidia<tab>15:08
chronos_regedit: here's my installed nvidia packages nvidia-common && xserver-xorg-video-nouveau-quantal 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu3-precise215:09
chronos_regedit: I anw15:10
regeditchronos_: you might wanna uninstall any nvidia stuff (not sure though) and make sure your PPAs are set up correctly to find recommended drivers15:10
chronos_regedit: I anyway downloaded and install via terminal this NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-337.12.run which happens to be the right driver for my card15:10
regeditchronos_: it might not be advisable to do that15:10
regeditusually better to stick with the official drivers provided by ubuntu15:11
chronos_regedit: ok, perfect, which are the PPAs, where do I find them? I know how to add them to the sources but dunno where to find them, the correct ones I mean15:11

potatoe_oh :)15:12
potatoe_lol15:12
potatoe_i was like wtf hehe15:12
chronos_regedit: yes, proceding into apt-get remove --purge nvidia-* then following ur advice into adding the right PPAs, no?15:12
Curson;;15:13
regediti hope that's a good idea - beware i'm pretty much noobie myself :)15:16
chronos_regedit: ah.... ok....15:18
regedityou prolly just wanna double check you have the main PPAs archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ for precise pangolin i guess15:19
squintychronos:  just a thought.  make sure you have Propriety drivers for devices (restricted) toggled on in Software and Updates.15:19

TJ-lotuspsychje: trying to find a way to simulate 4K sized sector devices for testing tooling, but not found a way outside of using a VM, which is not a usable solution for mastering images on such simulated devices16:37
TJ-chronos_: Did you reboot the PC since installing and activating the driver?16:38
lotuspsychjeTJ-: 4K as in the new tv technology?16:39
chronos_lotuspsychje, geforce gtx 850m on 12.0416:39
chronos_TJ-, yes!!!16:39
lotuspsychjechronos_: is that an optimus card?16:39
TJ-lotuspsychje: 4096 bytes sectors used for > 2TB 'advanced format' devices16:39
lotuspsychjeTJ-: think that will be over my head, maybe the ##hardware guys know stuff for that?16:40
chronos_TJ-,  and the first time the screen was black and I had to reboot with a live 12.04 and manually modify xorg.conf into VESA default settings and reboot, it starts and the resolution is waaay too low, software drivers tells me nvidia_346 activated but not in use, and when I checked xorg.conf again, it was generated by nvidia-prime and the one with VESA stuff i made a minute before reboot is gone...... what the h...?16:41
chronos_lotuspsychje, optimus u say... i dunno, it ain't mine16:41
TJ-lotuspsychje: It's a kernel thing, I've been working on patching the loop driver to support changing the sector-size, but that has come to a dead-end right now :)16:42
chronos_TJ-, ok, so what do i do?16:42
TJ-chronos_: "nvidia-prime" means Optimus aka dual-GPU16:42
polishpoliceforchow to make files in an external drive that are read only to read and write?16:42
polishpoliceforcusing terminal that is16:42
lotuspsychjeTJ-: maybe someone got a patched kernel for that? what should i look for 'keyword'?16:42
chronos_TJ-, ahah alright, i dunno16:43
polishpoliceforci tried going to properties and checking on write but it's greyed out for me16:43
TJ-chronos_: I've stayed away from the low/high power GPU stuff; it's a can of worms.16:43
lotuspsychje!info nvidia-prime | chronos_ install this mate16:43
ubottuchronos_ install this mate: nvidia-prime (source: nvidia-prime): Tools to enable NVIDIA's Prime. In component main, is optional. Version 0.8.1 (vivid), package size 10 kB, installed size 114 kB (Only available for i386; amd64)16:43
OerHekspolishpoliceforc, sounds like ntfs?16:43
TJ-lotuspsychje: No, I've been doing extensive research on this for over a week now, including my kernel patches. I've been hoping to find another, sneaky, way through some obscure tool that might support it. For example, qemu supports configuring the physical and logical sector-size of its virtual drives, but unfortunately what I'm doing can't make use of a virtual machine16:44
chronos_TJ-, agreed, still any ideas?16:45
chronos_lotuspsychje, didn't quite get that... huh?16:45
lotuspsychjechronos_: if your card is optimus, you need the package nvidia-prime16:45
anonymousNotTellasd16:45
lotuspsychjechronos_: check your cards website to make sure16:45
chronos_lotuspsychje, it is already installed like i told you IT generated the last xorg.conf on its own16:45
chronos_oi!16:46
lotuspsychjechronos_: ok, then did you enable nvidia card from nvidia-settings?16:46
lotuspsychjechronos_: setting to: performance mode?16:46
anonymousNotTellare there any channels for specific topics16:46
anonymousNotTell?16:46
TJ-chronos_: I'd check the system's specifications and BIOS, to ensure the Linux driver can support the configuration. There are two types of hybrid GPU hardware technologies: multiplexed (MUXed) and non-multiplexed (MUXless). As I recall the nvidia driver *does not* support MUXless. Check in the "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for clues.16:46

JokesOnYou77Alto1d, It does seem like you are describing dd.  Not that I know anything about your server config, but it may also be prudent to run the server as a VM and snapshot the VM.17:24
Alto1dJokesOnYou77, that might be so, but it's not really possible right now. I have all the files on a RAID 10 server that's managed by mdadm, with the OS on a seperate harddisk17:25
eraggoAbhijit: whar do you mean about pv?17:25
Alto1dI'd just like a solution to restore the server to the present state if the harddrive with Ubuntu dies but the RAID drives continue to function17:25
eraggoAbhijit: nvm; just googled it. It shouldn't make any difference if you pipe it correctly17:27

Tad_Can my cpu run Ubuntu http://postimg.org/image/vvmrpjkwt/full/17:31
dtscodehey guys... I'm trying to get into my vps via ssh, but every time it asks me for my password it just hangs. how can I fix this?17:31
Abhijiteraggo, I was following the same guide and did pv -tpreb source.iso | dd of=/dev/BLABLA bs=4096 conv=notrunc,noerror after booting into usb it gives me boot> prompt with some error. So I thought to just confirm before doing dd again.17:32
lotuspsychjeTad_: an i7, ofcourse why you ask?17:32
JokesOnYou77MonkeyDust, I just echoed $(whoami).  What  I'm actually trying to figure out is why when I launch a program from the launcher it doesn't have access to environmental variables exported in .bashrc17:32
Tad_I am using virual box to run windows17:33
eraggoAbhijit: you should use dd if=inputfile | pv | of=outfile .Piping pv between should should progress17:34
Abhijiteraggo, That user reports that he has to wait more using this method.17:34
Abhijitbut if it works let me try it this time ...17:34
asarchI have an issue with the new release: both my laptop and my Internet wireless AP are off and then I turn on only the laptop (it smells my neighbors' wireless AP) and an hour later I turn on my AP but the laptop does not get connected17:34
asarchIt used to work fine with previous releases17:35
asarchWhat's wrong with this new one?17:35
Abhijitdd if=ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso | pv | of=/dev/sdb prints the progress bar just "once" and exit me to regular terminal prompt. whats wrong?17:35
TJ-asarch: possibly the wireless chip is in the wrong regulatory domain and cannot see the AP?17:36
asarchI have to turn off wireless connections and then turn on again so it can gets connected to my AP17:36
asarchIf I turn on the AP first and then the laptop, it works fine17:36
TJ-asarch: for example, in the US the limit is channel 11 but in Europe its channel 13, and 14 in Japan. If the regulatory domain has set to US and the AP were broadcasting on channel 12,13,14 then the client won't find the AP17:36
eraggoAbhijit: seems like you need to give buffersize and count in "if" part. I just trust when using dd and wait as long it takes (10 mins maybe)17:37
TJ-asarch: maybe a signal strength issue then. Try from the terminal "sudo iwlist scan wlan0" (or whatever the PC's WiFi interface is named)17:37
Abhijiteraggo, ok. let me try without pv!17:38
eraggoAbhijit: just make sure sdb is correct disk... Lost 150G of data accidentally when i had plugged in external hard drive and tried to copy iso to thumb drive17:39
Abhijiteraggo, Thats nothing! Once I formatted sda thinking I am formatting sdb in gparted! :-p17:40

Bashing-omhogslammer: For the "slow to respond", May I suggest ya re-install grub and verify that all in "/etc/fstab" is correct ?20:40
TJ-hogslammer: What make/model of PC/motherboard is it?20:41
hogslammeri used that boot fixer on a live cd and it borked my windows install permanently20:41
hogslammerasrock z77 extreme 420:41
TJ-hogslammer: and what make/model is the SSD?20:42
hogslammerand still didnt fix the slow to respond issue.  i have to go into recovery mode from grub to make it into my ubuntu.20:42
hogslammerSSDSA2SH032G1GN INTEL (045C8850)20:43
hogslammerboth are identical and have upgraded firmware to latest.20:43
hogslammerlogs showing they refuse to load at 3gb per second so it knocks down half speed to 1.5g.20:44
controllersyrHi- I need help with ubuntu software center Kapatcha key- I am trying to sign up but kapatcha key wrong- is there a solution20:45
TJ-hogslammer: In the system BIOS, you should try disabling AHCI mode on the controller those drives are connected to20:45
hogslammerraid hates it, ahci hates it, ide mode.  will try that.20:47
hogslammeri heard ide mode sucks20:47
hogslammerraid 0 is what i wanted but had to split drives and deal with half speed, and still dont work20:47
TJ-hogslammer: Apparently, some SATA controllers have problems with the X25-E in AHCI mode and downgrade the link to SATA1 instead of the drives' SATA 2 preference20:47
hogslammersame exact issue too20:47
hogslammerso if i want performance, i boot into windows 8 after changing back to ahci from ide.20:48
hogslammerok20:48
TJ-hogslammer: Also, more specific to that particular motherboard, in the firmware setup ensure you *disable*,  under advanced storage settings, SATA Aggressive link power management20:49
hogslammeryes i did that a few years ago and its still disabled.20:50
TJ-hogslammer: OK, that would be the obvious one with that mobo20:50
hogslammeri have 2 controllers onboard .  one is by asmedia, and the other is intel.20:51
hogslammeri wish they never invented UEFI20:51
hogslammerbut ya its all not in UEFI modes for sure.20:51
hogslammersince i broken my raid array anyway i might try to rewire it all to the asmedia controller instead of the intel one.20:52

tertiarythis is super weird. I am *sure* I installed the server ISO (directly from Ubuntu). Upon sucessful boot, it takes me to a GUI login screen, where it states "Failed to start session". Any ideas as to why it doesn't boot to the command line?21:04
hogslammeryo tj it worked  ide mode went fast, but still had to do it thru recovery mode.21:04
TJ-hogslammer: I'm reading on the Intel forums, from posts by the Intel engineers, there are known problems with those SSDs because they require power at the top end of the range the specification requires but some motherboards only supply the minimum the specification requires. One possible solution is to run independent power to the drives.21:05
hogslammerahh hmm21:06
TJ-hogslammer: It seems mostly it happens with certain combinations of SATA controller chipset and that X25-E21:06
TJ-hogslammer: I don't suppose you have a PCIe SATA II controller adapter you could plug in, to test it on a different controller, do you?21:06
hogslammerwell you would think that intel would work with intel flawless, thats why igot this mobo.21:07
hogslammeri have 2 onboard controllers21:07
TJ-hogslammer: Apparently it depends on the motherboard manufacturer too, as to how they implement the controller/power logic ... I've seen mention of your motherboard and 1 other that are particularly known to exhibit problems21:07
Bashing-omtertiary: There is no GUI with the server install.21:08
hogslammer1 is by asmedia, and the other is intel.  8 total ports.  i have the spindrive and burner on the asmedia, and the 2 ssd on the intel.   intel rom acts like it needs control over spin drive which boggles me.21:08
TJ-hogslammer: I also wonder if you'd get better results, purely for testing purposes, if you only have 1 drive connected21:08
Hobbet1121:08
TJ-hogslammer: boot a Live ISO image on USB and see if the kernel can correctly bring up the SATA 2 link with only 1 SSD connected21:09
hogslammeri do know that setting IDE mode off from ahci mode got me in with little delay.  ubuntu on normal mode freaked on not finding drives using the ahci driver, but recovery mode sorta didnt care and loaded some generic driver i bet so i booted fast.21:09
