| daveinfla | Good evening all | 00:11 |
| daveinfla | I'm migrating from a Windows based media server to one running on ubuntu. I want to force all transmission traffic over openvpn, when the vpn drops I want transmission to stop. It would be a bonus to be alerted when the vpn drops too. Can anyone direct me to a straight forward step by step reference? | 00:12 |

| hypernova | and then i have enough room on my computer to back up my flash drive contents | 00:58 |
| hypernova | then i can just wipe my flash drive and use it... | 00:59 |
| Bashing-om | hypernova: Nevermind, I can not come up with a means (non ubuntu) to copy the .iso to the install . We would have to have the .iso file present in the install . | 01:01 |
| hypernova | yes | 01:01 |
| hypernova | i have a idea | 01:01 |
| hypernova | i need to figure out how to compress the data on my flashdrive to store it | 01:02 |
| hypernova | on my comp | 01:02 |
| hypernova | my other comp is amlost out of room | 01:02 |
| hypernova | from backing up stuff | 01:02 |
| hypernova | i will compress the data on my flash drive | 01:02 |
| hypernova | then mount the iso | 01:02 |
| hypernova | then boot ubuntu | 01:02 |
| hypernova | then put my important files back on the flash drive and un compress them | 01:02 |
| hypernova | problem sloved | 01:02 |
| hypernova | solved | 01:02 |
| Bashing-om | hypernova: Humm .. If it is your thought to boot the .iso from the thumb drive, do not think grub has the ability to see an external device . BUT, we can try . | 01:07 |
| hypernova | no no | 01:08 |
| hypernova | im just going to instal ubunto on a second hardrive | 01:08 |

| hypernova | its from when i was 10 | 01:08 |
| hypernova | yes | 01:08 |
| hypernova | change your boot order | 01:08 |
| hypernova | in the bios | 01:08 |
| hypernova | to boot ubunto first ;P | 01:09 |

| Bashing-om | hypernova: Anyway you can come up with to boot up a 'buntu is good . | 01:11 |
| hypernova | ohh ok rockstar_ | 01:12 |
| hypernova | just hit f12 or f2 | 01:12 |
| hypernova | when you power on your bios | 01:12 |
| hypernova | it will say a button to change boot order or enter bios settings | 01:12 |
| hypernova | plug your usb in | 01:12 |
| hypernova | when computers turned off and boot it up | 01:12 |
| hypernova | then enter bios | 01:13 |
| hypernova | change bot order to boot from flashdrive before harddrives | 01:13 |
| hypernova | then you can set it up | 01:13 |
| rockstar_ | hypernova: yup, I looked up its bios (F9) and boot menu(Esc) shortcuts. But Esc is directly taking me to windows startup. | 01:13 |
| hypernova | it should not | 01:13 |
| hypernova | try your bios | 01:14 |
| hypernova | you have to get to the bios menu | 01:14 |

| vibewill | Anyone know a version of Wine that runs josgos online that use DirectX with greater perfection | 01:47 |
| cfhowlett | !wine | vibewill | 01:48 |
| ubottu | vibewill: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 01:48 |
| sedd | hell world i new here | 01:48 |
| vibewill | Correct want to run a game | 01:52 |
| vibewill | perfect world | 01:52 |
| vibewill | no more running this wine | 01:52 |
| vibewill | I wanted a wine version for the wheel | 01:53 |
| cfhowlett | vibewill, as DirectX is a WINDOWS program, you need either or wine or *possibly* a VM solution. | 01:53 |
| vibewill | cfhowlett I tendando runs on most wine without success headache | 01:59 |
| cfhowlett | vibewill, see the wine resources for support and don't forget: wine is an EMUALATOR. running programs on an emulator rarely gives full performance. | 02:00 |
| netameta_ | anyone familiar with quassel, if so how can i export/import user profile(all of channels and configs) | 02:03 |
| hypernova | probbly just copy the data where its stored... | 02:04 |
| hypernova | ive never used it but its most likly just a buch of files you could copy | 02:04 |
| cpc | hello | 02:06 |
| netameta_ | cant find those files | 02:06 |
| azizLIGHT | im testing ubuntu 15.04 via vmware workstation 11 on ubuntu 14.04 x64 and in the livecd i cant get it to change the tiny resolution at all from the display settings | 02:12 |
| azizLIGHT | im stuck in 800x600 | 02:13 |
| SCHAAP137 | install the vmware tools, azizLIGHT | 02:15 |
| azizLIGHT | im trying | 02:15 |
| SCHAAP137 | you could ask in #vmware for support installing the tools | 02:15 |
| SCHAAP137 | i think it's just sudo ./vmware-tools-install.pl, from the disk, azizLIGHT | 02:16 |
| SCHAAP137 | or something similar | 02:16 |
| azizLIGHT | yep i found it, it was in their tar | 02:17 |
| SCHAAP137 | i think you need to have the kernel headers installed, to build some of those vmware modules | 02:18 |
| SCHAAP137 | azizLIGHT, if the tools install fails, use this command to install the necessary files: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) | 02:18 |
| azizLIGHT | now i got a question | 02:19 |
| azizLIGHT | i did the vmware tools install, but it wants me to logout login. i was going to press ctrl-alt-backspace... but it got me thinking: will this be sent to the guest os, or will the host takeover this key shortcut and kill X in the host | 02:20 |
| SCHAAP137 | no idea | 02:20 |
| SCHAAP137 | that's a vmware question | 02:20 |
| azizLIGHT | hmm because ive done it before and host took it over | 02:20 |
| azizLIGHT | that was unpleasant | 02:20 |
| SCHAAP137 | vmware uses ctrl alt as the default host keys i think... virtualbox uses right ctrl | 02:21 |
| SCHAAP137 | so it makes sense that before you even press backspace, the host takes over | 02:21 |
| azizLIGHT | ohhh you are correct | 02:21 |
| azizLIGHT | it worked :) | 02:22 |
| SCHAAP137 | nice | 02:23 |
| azizLIGHT | i got 1900x1200 but no 1900x1080 :/ | 02:23 |
| azizLIGHT | as options in the display | 02:23 |
| azizLIGHT | SCHAAP137: i misspoke. i dont mean to say ctrl-alt-backspace worked | 02:24 |
| azizLIGHT | SCHAAP137: i just ran /usr/bin/vmware-user manually. they give you 3 ways to start. run that program manually, logout/login, or restart X | 02:24 |
| SCHAAP137 | i'd just restart the vm | 02:25 |
| azizLIGHT | well its a livecd | 02:26 |
| azizLIGHT | restarting it wouldnt help | 02:26 |
| SCHAAP137 | hmm, installing the tools on a livecd is a bit useless in that sense :P | 02:26 |
| azizLIGHT | hehe yea | 02:26 |

| azizLIGHT | how much space do i need for a dkestop install of 15.04 | 04:18 |
| lotuspsychje | azizLIGHT: +10 gig would be nice | 04:19 |
| azizLIGHT | ok thanks | 04:20 |
| Gurathnaka | Hello everyone. I'm on 14.04 lts. I'm wondering if i installed 15.04, does it support wifi out of the box? By that i mean, i tried installing 15.04 Ubuntu Mate, however i could not connect to the internet, so i did not install it. I am wondering if it's the same with the newest vanilla ubuntu? | 04:21 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: what wifi card chipset? | 04:21 |
| Gurathnaka | intel, im not sure the exact model | 04:21 |
| Gurathnaka | but mint and vanilla 14.04 worked fine | 04:22 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: well if you want stable stick to 14.04, if you wanna try non-lts perhaps plugin eth cable to update wifi drivers | 04:22 |
| michael_p | #blender | 04:23 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: did you try 15.04 desktop? | 04:23 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, i have only tried Ubuntu Mate 15.04. I was going to install it as my primary OS. Im new and distro hopping quite a bit, so i didn't continue because i did not want to be stuck there without internet | 04:24 |
| Phveektor | 15.04 works fine for a. Clean install. And seems more stable than 14.10 but if u want one with lts 14.04 is gd | 04:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: you can always ask in #ubuntu-mate, but keep in mind that LTS is more stable | 04:25 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: you can try a 15.04 liveusb with eth cable plugged in, to see if it recognizes your wifi | 04:25 |
| Gurathnaka | Well, i was wondering if it's a bug with all the derivative distros | 04:25 |
| Gurathnaka | i don't have an ethernet cable unfortunately | 04:26 |
| ubskeur | I'm having issues with some audio programs only making garbled noise, could switching from ALSA help? | 04:26 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: normally intel cards are supported pretty well | 04:26 |
| lotuspsychje | !sound | ubskeur | 04:26 |
| ubottu | ubskeur: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 04:26 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, is the software in 15.04 more updated? One of the problems i'm experiencing is a lot of the software seems to be out of date in 14.04 | 04:28 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: installing ubuntu is always reccomended to enable internet + updates + 3rd party software during install | 04:28 |
| Phveektor | Mostly ubuntu disables playing media after a. Clean install, but u can always enable it by installing ubuntu restricted extras from synaptic or using terminal | 04:28 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: every ubuntu version has its own package versions, that doenst mean their danger to use | 04:28 |
| Gurathnaka | Oh, i did enable it in Mate | 04:28 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: i would reccomend you 15.04 desktop liveusb, just to check if wifi gets recognized | 04:30 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: if it does, you will know its a mate thing | 04:30 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, thanks, I'll try that out. | 04:30 |
| ubskeur | lotuspsychje, a lot of this troubleshooting is for sound that isn't playing at all, rather than some applications making garbled noise | 04:31 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, i did notice a few bug reports yesterday about 15.04 and intel cards when i was trying to find a fix, but i don't remember if it was mate related or not. Oh well, can't hurt to try | 04:32 |
| michael_p | whats your verdict on xubuntu | 04:32 |
| lotuspsychje | michael_p: what about it? | 04:32 |
| michael_p | i like it better then linux minit | 04:33 |
| lotuspsychje | ubskeur: did you try a pulseaudio restart? | 04:33 |
| ubskeur | lotuspsychje, will look into that | 04:33 |
| lotuspsychje | michael_p: this channel is only for ubuntu support, not polls | 04:33 |
| Phveektor | Lotuspsychje: lol | 04:34 |
| michael_p | i know | 04:34 |
| Gurathnaka | Also, sorry if this is a dumb question, but I don't really understand the whole lts and 15.04 thing. I'm new, so it's pretty confusing. If 15.04 is the newest version then why don't they just long term support that? | 04:34 |
| lotuspsychje | lts | Gurathnaka | 04:34 |
| lotuspsychje | !lts | Gurathnaka | 04:34 |
| ubottu | Gurathnaka: 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) | 04:34 |
| Phveektor | There is no crime asking before tryin something out | 04:34 |
| lotuspsychje | Phveektor: likes/dislikes is something else then asking if the system could handle xubuntu | 04:35 |
| ubskeur | lotuspsychje, E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed. | 04:36 |
| Gurathnaka | Is ubottu a bot? | 04:36 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: yes | 04:36 |

| geekosopher | adobe-flashplugin fails to update on kubuntu 14.04 | 04:36 |

| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, do you use 15.04? | 04:37 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: no im on 14.04.2 rocksolid :p | 04:37 |

| Abhijit | hi | 04:38 |
| lotuspsychje | geekosopher: kubuntu-restricted-extras in your case | 04:38 |
| lotuspsychje | HarrySacks: no, why do you suspect? | 04:38 |
| ubskeur | HarrySacks, ubuntu is what you do on your computer | 04:39 |
| ubskeur | HarrySacks, if you suspect being spied on, try using a packet sniffer | 04:39 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, ah ok. Do you mind if i ask how i could get software thats updated on other distos but not up to date on the software center? | 04:39 |
| Abhijit | i have a working Centos installed on UEFI motherboard with encrypted lvm. when i try to install ubuntu 15 it detects the lvm. is it safe to just mount my ubuntu partitions to that lvm? will that work? also my centos has uefi boot . but ubuntu only shows /boot in the list not the uefi. shall i just ignore it? | 04:39 |
| geekosopher | lotuspsychje: nope | 04:39 |
| lotuspsychje | geekosopher: try installing that | 04:40 |
| Abhijit | HarrySacks, some dash plugins might be. just disable them | 04:40 |
| geekosopher | lotuspsychje: giving it a spin | 04:40 |
| Abhijit | HarrySacks, you can always monitor network traffic and keep record of it using cron when you are not looking. | 04:40 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: thats a bad idea, always use the package versions meant for the ubuntu version | 04:40 |
| ubskeur | lotuspsychje, restarting pulseaudio has no effect. Since I noticed the issue I've restarted ubuntu twice with no effect | 04:41 |
| lotuspsychje | ubskeur: wich ubuntu version is this? | 04:41 |
| Guest10869 | WIRESHARK | 04:42 |
| ubskeur | lotuspsychje, 15.04, no issue before upgrading from 14.10, not working at all since upgrade | 04:42 |
| lotuspsychje | ubskeur: upgrades can get tricky, try a clean install instead | 04:42 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, I mean,i understand it could be a little unstable but in the software center, the media player i would like to use is out of dathe by a year, everywhere else it seems to be updated regularly | 04:43 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: even if you use 15.04 you wont always have latest packages of the main website | 04:43 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: its reccomended to use versions, meant for the ubuntu version | 04:44 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: if you install a newer version manually, you can risk trouble | 04:45 |
| ubskeur | lotuspsychje, clean install is a last resort, anything else you could recommend trying? | 04:45 |
| lotuspsychje | ubskeur: check your syslog and dmesg for sound related issues | 04:45 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, Oh, ok, i see. Well, thank you for clearing that up for me | 04:45 |

| RNSpharaoh | i thought i was loged in to it :), let me try to find that | 04:48 |
| xangua | !latest | Gurathnaka if you are looking for a distro that has latest packages always, maybe Ubuntu is not the distro for you | 04:48 |
| ubottu | Gurathnaka if you are looking for a distro that has latest packages always, maybe Ubuntu is not the distro for you: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 04:48 |
| lotuspsychje | ubskeur: yeah that alsa bug line, try reporting a bug for 15.04 or..clean install 15.04 or 14.04 | 04:49 |
| lotuspsychje | ubskeur: your choice :p | 04:49 |

| Gurathnaka | xangua, i love ubuntu though, haha. But yes, i do see your point. Like i said, i guess it's better stable, than sorry | 04:51 |

| geekosopher | it says: downloading http://archive.canonical.com/..../adobe-flashplugin/adobe-flashplugin_20150623.1.orig.tar.gz | 04:54 |
| geekosopher | it remains so for long | 04:54 |
| Gurathnaka | Ooh, i had another quick question. Is installing different desktop enviroments in Ubuntu a bad idea? I tried to install the kubuntu desktop earlier, and there were a lot of problems with it and it didn't work very well. Was wondering if i just messed up, or if it's a just generally a bad idea | 04:55 |
| geekosopher | then the message comes - Installing from local file /tmp/tmp<something>.gz | 04:55 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: the smoothest way, is to install your flavor directly | 04:55 |
| ubskeur | now libparted bugs -_- | 04:55 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: if you want kubuntu, then install kubuntu desktop 14.04 example | 04:55 |
| ubuntu936 | geekosopher: I had an error out a couple of days ago, that li k is dead try changing the server | 04:56 |
| ubuntu936 | link* | 04:56 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: of course you can install kubuntu-desktop from an ubuntu install also | 04:56 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, thats what i did, but i ended up reformatting in the end, since i couldn't get rid of the kubuntu deskto, which had many bugs for some reason | 04:57 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: clean installs are reccomended just for that reason | 04:58 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, I see, thanks | 04:59 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: if you wanna test flavors in the future, theres always virtualbox also | 04:59 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: you would be able to test any flavor/distro you want from a solid 14.04 LTS example | 05:00 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, I do have one last question to ask before i go (i'm sorry). But is Mint an Ubuntu flavor? Or just based on Ubuntu? | 05:00 |
| lotuspsychje | !mint | Gurathnaka | 05:00 |
| ubottu | Gurathnaka: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 05:00 |

| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, well, thank you very much for the help, i appreciate it :) | 05:02 |
| Gurathnaka | i've got to go now, cya all | 05:02 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: everyone can choose what he likes, but in my opinion, 14.04 LTS is most solid version ive had | 05:02 |
| lotuspsychje | Gurathnaka: good luck! | 05:02 |
| Gurathnaka | lotuspsychje, yeah, i'm thinking i might hold on tight here and explore the other distros through virtualbox or liveusb | 05:03 |
| cyberalex4life | lotuspsychje, it's quite solid, but nevertheless there are some glitches here and there (usual for linux) | 05:03 |

| lotuspsychje | drfoobaz: not sure, did you try all drivers switch from additional drivers? | 05:37 |
| ubskeur | VFDPrim, which card? | 05:38 |
| drfoobaz | lotuspsychje: Hm. How much worse is performance with the Noveau driver? If it performs better on basic stuff and is only slightly worse on games, I may just use that. | 05:38 |
| lotuspsychje | drfoobaz: best driver, would be the one perfoming best on your system | 05:39 |

| ubskeur | VFDPrim, ok, I thought you had issues with your current card :P | 05:39 |

| lotuspsychje | ubskeur: oh right missed that :p | 05:58 |
| lotuspsychje | !lamp | azizLIGHT | 05:58 |
| ubottu | azizLIGHT: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process. | 05:58 |

| EriC^^ | musclez: no | 06:41 |
| EriC^^ | Gurathnaka: i think rhythmbox can rip them | 06:41 |
| Gurathnaka | Huh, i wasn't really a fan of rhythembox, i was more hoping i could rip it to my music folder somehow | 06:42 |
| ubskeur | Gurathnaka, ipods store music in an apple format, so it can be really difficult to work with them | 06:42 |
| musclez | eric^^ termbin.com:ixg7 | 06:43 |
| Gurathnaka | ubskeur, i never used itunes in windows | 06:43 |
| ubskeur | Gurathnaka, if rhythmbox can do it, it can also save it to files in your music folder | 06:43 |
| EriC^^ | Gurathnaka: you can, just use rhythmbox to rip it there | 06:43 |
| TJ- | musclez: did you check the dmesg output in case there are disk I/O errors causing all your problems? | 06:43 |
| Gurathnaka | none of my things are in aac itunes format | 06:43 |
| ubskeur | Gurathnaka, oh, what type of ipod? | 06:43 |

| Gurathnaka | and eric | 06:44 |
| ubskeur | Gurathnaka, how did you get the music on there? | 06:44 |

| musclez | http://pastebin.com/w9srru7j | 07:22 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: The grub-install error is most likely because the system has been booted in legacy mode, or the ESP hasn't been mounted to /boot/efi/ | 07:23 |
| EriC^^ | worth a a shot i guess | 07:24 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: type ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi does it exist? | 07:24 |
| EriC^^ | also type mount | nc termbin.com 9999 | 07:24 |
| musclez | i have to reboot now... dpkg crashes the system | 07:25 |
| EriC^^ | press ctrl+c | 07:25 |
| EriC^^ | or close the terminal and open a new one | 07:25 |
| musclez | ^c appears | 07:25 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: The 'statoverride' issue is likely due to a package's user ID having been manually deleted from /etc/passwd. Can check on the expected overrides with "dpkg-statoverride --list" | 07:26 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: try alt+f4 | 07:26 |
| musclez | no such file or directory | 07:26 |
| EriC^^ | ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi ? | 07:27 |
| EriC^^ | ok, reboot and make sure you boot the usb in uefi mode | 07:27 |

| musclez | alrgihty | 07:28 |
| EriC^^ | TJ-: you mean like sshd being deleted from /etc/passwd ? | 07:28 |

| musclez | do you wnat the termbins or just wnat me to mount everything? | 07:33 |
| EriC^^ | it's ok, just mount | 07:33 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: apt-get --reinstall install <Package> possibly, or possibly dpkg-statoverride has an option | 07:34 |
| EriC^^ | TJ-: i think something else is wrong too, cause usually grub complains about missing efivars when it's not booted in efi mode | 07:35 |

| Remoboth | SOmeone here helped me last week. | 08:01 |
| Remoboth | With this same problem. | 08:01 |
| EriC^^ | Syncazor: if you used unetbootin to install it to the usb, then all you have to do is boot it and install to your hdd | 08:01 |
| Syncazor | EriC^^: I selected ubuntu then 14_live with unetbootin, then ran it on my pc, and it said invalid kernal image | 08:02 |
| Syncazor | EriC^^: Because I tried to use 15 | 08:02 |
| Remoboth | /home/usr/.local/share/applications/criticalmass.desktop This is where the desktop config file is stuck. ANy help? | 08:02 |
| EriC^^ | Syncazor: dd the image | 08:02 |
| bazhang | !lxle | Remoboth | 08:02 |
| ubottu | Remoboth: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 08:02 |
| Remoboth | bazhang - I respect that but someone here helped me delete the file last week. | 08:03 |
| EriC^^ | Syncazor: sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M && sync | 08:03 |
| Remoboth | bazhang - IT is the same file. I just hate to do a clean install of LXLE. | 08:03 |
| EriC^^ | Syncazor: where sdX is your usb | 08:03 |
| bazhang | Remoboth, ask the lxle support people, its not supported here | 08:03 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: try booting into the system | 08:04 |
| EriC^^ | it should boot, still need to fix dpkg and grub though | 08:04 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: type exit, then reboot | 08:04 |
| Syncazor | EriC^^: how do i sudo the image? | 08:04 |
| musclez | i jsut hit reboot, does that mess it up? | 08:04 |
| musclez | does not boot into normal mode, trying recovery | 08:05 |
| lotuspsychje | Syncazor: what are you trying to doe exactly? | 08:05 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: what did it say? | 08:05 |
| musclez | it just freezes | 08:05 |
| Syncazor | lotuspsychje: install ubuntu 15 with a usb onto a blank hdd | 08:06 |
| musclez | same deal with the recovery mode... dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root does not exist dropping to a shell | 08:06 |
| lotuspsychje | Syncazor: as been suggested, reboot into your usb stick and install on your blank hd | 08:06 |
| musclez | and then timestamps of usb devices | 08:06 |
| Syncazor | lotuspsychje: but how do i put ubuntu 15 on the usb | 08:07 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: musclez That sounds like the initrd doesn't have the cryptsetup hooks installed | 08:07 |
| lotuspsychje | Syncazor: you just said you succeeded with unetbootin to make the usb? | 08:07 |
| Syncazor | lotuspsychje: no, it says invalid kernal image | 08:07 |
| squinty | Syncazor, when you use unetbootin, use the lower half of the unetbootin screen.... click on Diskimage > ISO use the directory selector to select the directory where the iso resides. and Type = "USB Drive" plus select the proper usb stick name (eg G:\ or /dev/sb1) and if you want make a persistence file (for Ubuntu based iso's only) by filling in the "Space used to preserve...etc) | 08:08 |
| Syncazor | lotuspsychje: because in unetbootin there is no unbuntu 15 | 08:08 |
| lotuspsychje | Syncazor: make a stick with this tool:http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows | 08:08 |
| Syncazor | lotuspsychje: does it support 15? | 08:08 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: ok, boot the live usb again | 08:08 |
| lotuspsychje | Syncazor: supports any .iso | 08:08 |
| MonkeyDust | Syncazor download the 15.04 iso, then use unetbeootin | 08:08 |
| squinty | Syncazor, If it is not listed, then use the method I just posted | 08:09 |

| MonkeyDust | Syncazor if it's not in the dropdown menu, simply download it | 08:09 |

| musclez | uefi crashes a lot | 08:12 |
| musclez | i still haven tgot it ot boot | 08:12 |
| TJ- | musclez: Ubuntu is installed in UEFI boot mode, so to recover it you always need to boot in that same mode, even for the Live ISO | 08:13 |
| musclez | im back inm | 08:13 |
| TJ- | musclez: everything points to disk corruption; UEFI mode is working as it should, has nothing to do with the crashes | 08:13 |

| EriC^^ | TJ-: should he do a smart test? | 08:16 |
| EriC^^ | or maybe fsck the partition? | 08:16 |
| musclez | i think this happend when i ran boot-repair for the first time | 08:17 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: I think both, and I'd check the kernel logs for signs of I/O errors, and it needs a memtest doing, which is problematical on UEFI! | 08:17 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: I think that update-grub loop might be caused by the /boot/ directory having a looping inode | 08:18 |

| cfhowlett | Syncazor, again: ONLY If you use windows. ONLY. | 08:55 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: or nevermind, just type sudo mkfs -t ext4 /dev/sda2 | 08:55 |
| MonkeyDust | Syncazor no, wubi is a windows program | 08:55 |

| cfhowlett | Syncazor, DID you md5sum the .iso and the USB? | 08:58 |
| cfhowlett | because a corrupted usb would do what you describe | 08:58 |
| musclez | eric^^ http://pastebin.com/wzwj3cth | 08:59 |
| lotuspsychje | maybe he's got a virus on his autoruninf and infected wubi.exe lol | 08:59 |
| Syncazor | cfhowlett: The ISO has the same hash | 09:00 |
| cfhowlett | Syncazor, and the usb?? | 09:00 |
| cfhowlett | !md5sum | Syncazor | 09:00 |
| ubottu | Syncazor: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 09:00 |
| EriC^^ | Syncazor: did you try nomodeset? | 09:00 |
| Syncazor | cfhowlett: I can't check the usb, since it's not a file | 09:00 |
| Syncazor | EriC^^: How do I do that? | 09:00 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done | 09:00 |
| cfhowlett | !nomodeset | Syncazor | 09:01 |
| ubottu | Syncazor: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 09:01 |
| Syncazor | I see the keyboard = person in circle then the continuous '_' | 09:01 |
| cfhowlett | Syncazor, yes you CAN verify the USB. read the md5sum wiki and replace the CD references/addresses with the USB | 09:01 |
| EriC^^ | Syncazor: hold shift while the pc boots, and when you get grub, press e over try ubuntu, then in the line that says linux /vmlinuz ...... add nomodeset after quiet splash, then press ctrl+x | 09:02 |

| musclez | rooted | 09:03 |
| lotuspsychje | colbyf: there are also handy free pdf editors online you can use | 09:03 |
| colbyf | don't see an editor in that, | 09:03 |
| MonkeyDust | colbyf i guess inkscape can edit pdf | 09:04 |
| Syncazor | EriC^^: I pressed shift, selected English then pressed F6 and selected nomodeset, and i still get the black screen with the _ | 09:04 |
| colbyf | I will give it a go :) | 09:04 |
| lotuspsychje | Syncazor: did you disable fastboot + secureboot in bios? | 09:04 |
| rabiul | use foxit reader on wine | 09:04 |
| EriC^^ | Syncazor: which laptop are you using? | 09:04 |

| EriC^^ | musclez: what about cat /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999 | 10:09 |
| musclez | http://termbin.com/hz6o | 10:10 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: musclez I'm not seeing anything obviously wrong; the UUID is correct, no typos, wondering about whitespace issues but can't see any | 10:11 |
| TJ- | musclez: let's find out if its fixed itself. Do "umount /boot/efi /boot" then try automounting them again with "mount -a" | 10:12 |
| musclez | no such | 10:13 |
| cq-aux | hi I'm having trouble changing my mac address, I keep losing the privileges or something every couple of days | 10:13 |
| ikonia | cq-aux: you don't change your mac address | 10:13 |
| ikonia | you should not be doing that | 10:13 |
| Ruedii | ice9, do you mean automatic or just to create the images. If you aren't automatically generating it from a dataset, I recommend just using a flowchart application. There is no need for a one trick pony for that. | 10:13 |
| TJ- | musclez: OK, so we need to figure this out before the system can reboot. | 10:13 |
| cq-aux | spoof spoof spoof | 10:13 |
| ikonia | cq-aux: no no no | 10:13 |
| cq-aux | I'm changing it for the session dude. with macchanger | 10:14 |
| ikonia | you shouldn't need to change it | 10:14 |
| musclez | why did we change uuids | 10:14 |
| cq-aux | I've also tried sudo ifconfig wlan0 hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx this time and I can't change it that way either | 10:14 |
| ikonia | you can't change it that way | 10:15 |
| ikonia | you should not be changing your mac | 10:15 |
| TJ- | musclez: because we created a new file-system in /dev/sda2 and it has a new UUID | 10:15 |
| TJ- | musclez: Can you "hexdump -C /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999" | 10:15 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: did update-grub work? | 10:15 |
| musclez | yeah it did from before | 10:15 |
| EriC^^ | grub-install or update-grub? | 10:15 |
| cq-aux | I had the same problem with macchanger before and I fixed it by bringing down wlan0 first and then stopping network-manager but it's not working this time | 10:16 |
| musclez | both | 10:16 |
| EriC^^ | cool so it just picked up the kernel and initrd and stopped? | 10:16 |
| ikonia | cq-aux: you should not be changing your mac | 10:16 |
| cq-aux | ikonia: yes I should | 10:16 |
| cq-aux | ikonia: it's only temporary, it's only til the the next reboot | 10:16 |
| ikonia | not sure why that matters | 10:16 |
| musclez | i see "adding boot menu entry to EFI firmware config..." | 10:17 |
| musclez | done | 10:17 |
| musclez | no specifc image information | 10:17 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: no 3.13 ... found? | 10:17 |
| musclez | negative | 10:17 |
| EriC^^ | mount /dev/sda2 /boot | 10:17 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: That's because we haven't installed the kernels yet... I wanted to fix this fstab issue first | 10:17 |
| musclez | done | 10:17 |
| EriC^^ | ohh right | 10:18 |
| musclez | rgr that ok | 10:18 |
| EriC^^ | forgot we unmounted and cleaned it and stuff | 10:18 |

| TJ- | musclez: Can you "hexdump -C /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999" | 10:19 |
| cq-aux | ikonia: I don't know how where to go from here, I can change the first 6 hex digits of my mac but I'm fearing that that will get me busted | 10:19 |
| ikonia | "get you busted" ? | 10:19 |

| TJ- | musclez: EriC^^ I'm not seeing any weird ASCII/UTF-8 codes there | 10:22 |
| EriC^^ | that's odd | 10:22 |
| kvadratrot | cfhowlett: yes sire. *over and out* | 10:23 |
| EriC^^ | let's see something | 10:23 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: try mount -a right now | 10:23 |
| EriC^^ | since just /boot is mounted and /boot/efi isn't | 10:23 |
| musclez | no such | 10:23 |
| musclez | hmm im in root | 10:24 |
| musclez | am i supposr to not be in chroot | 10:24 |
| EriC^^ | that's ok, no | 10:24 |

| eraggo | About ubuntuforums: how do i get access on my OWN profile? vBulletin says that i have no access to my own profile | 10:25 |

| musclez | linux image generic is already the newest version | 10:28 |

| musclez | my bad | 10:29 |
| musclez | boom | 10:29 |
| musclez | crash | 10:29 |
| EriC^^ | what did it say? | 10:29 |
| MonkeyDust | musclez what happened, to make your problem so complicated? | 10:30 |
| === Captain is now known as Guest12879 | ||
| TJ- | MonkeyDust: file-system corruption | 10:30 |
| musclez | sorry, d/c'd | 10:32 |

| Kopre | Hi everybody. Security question: Makes it sense to make a DMZ at home if you want to host your website by yourself? | 10:32 |
| EriC^^ | TJ-: ok, cool | 10:32 |
| EriC^^ | makes sense | 10:32 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: You best carry on where you left off, we can investigate that later | 10:33 |
| musclez | booking back into boot-repair disk | 10:33 |
| Kopre | EriC^^: Do you know a device (router) that suits? | 10:33 |
| EriC^^ | not to be a party pooper, but musclez can you easily backup and fresh install? | 10:34 |
| musclez | not really | 10:34 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 10:34 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: sudo cryptsetup ... | 10:34 |
| musclez | give me a secong the efi keeps crashing | 10:35 |
| TJ- | musclez: What does "keeps crashing" mean? | 10:35 |
| musclez | uefi boot disk | 10:35 |
| EriC^^ | TJ-: should he do the memtest? | 10:35 |
| cfhowlett | Kopre, perhaps a good query for #hardware | 10:35 |
| musclez | i dont think i have it yet do i? | 10:35 |
| TJ- | musclez: Like I said before, if there's a general problem with corruption then that needs to be identified and fixed first, else everythin we're doing now could be wasted | 10:35 |
| TJ- | musclez: how, precisely, does it crash? How far does the boot get, what do you see? | 10:36 |
| musclez | it waries | 10:36 |
| musclez | varies, soemtiems i get to desktop.. soemtiems not evn the loading screen | 10:37 |
| musclez | this time it was "si_disable_ulv failed" | 10:37 |
| musclez | kernel panic | 10:37 |
| musclez | im back on | 10:38 |
| musclez | sudo cryptsetup done | 10:39 |

| musclez | no problem :P | 10:42 |
| TJ- | musclez: can you pastebin the output of "ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/" | 10:42 |
| musclez | yeah 1sec | 10:43 |
| === amezor is now known as amezora | ||
| musclez | http://termbin.com/m380 | 10:44 |
| TJ- | musclez: EriC^^ "si_disable_ulv failed" comes from the radeon GPU driver's si_dpm_set_power_state() method. I'm not clear right now if it is vital at this stage, but I think if it is related to the crashing issues then it may indicate the system firmware setup power management, or else linux <>ACPI issues | 10:45 |
| TJ- | musclez: Well there's the problem for the mount - there's no UUID link been created for the file-system in /dev/sda2 | 10:45 |
| musclez | hmmm i had custome drivers from amd installed for a moment.. and then i noticed the had dissapered | 10:45 |
| TJ- | musclez: sorry, ignore me, I'm blind! It's there :) | 10:46 |
| TJ- | musclez: EriC^^: OK, you guys carry on building the chroot and try using "mount -a" inside it to get /boot/efi/ ready | 10:47 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: sudo chroot /mnt | 10:47 |
| musclez | no such for mount -a | 10:48 |
| ikonia | this all seems very drawn out, would it not be wiser to just backup the data and re-install ? | 10:48 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: ok, mount /dev/sda2 /boot | 10:48 |

| heikki_ | Hello. I need to debug my server, how can i see what program is sending mail using my postfix from localhost | 10:55 |
| ikonia | ? | 10:55 |
| musclez | seems stuck on "upacking linux-image-3.13.0-55-generic" | 10:55 |
| cfhowlett | !server | heikki_ | 10:55 |
| ubottu | heikki_: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide - Support in #ubuntu-server | 10:55 |
| ikonia | heikki_: the mail logs will show you the user connecting | 10:55 |
| ikonia | from that you can work out what app is calling it | 10:55 |
| heikki_ | i already know the user | 10:55 |
| heikki_ | i have mysql database for users | 10:56 |
| ikonia | so whats the problem then ? | 10:56 |
| heikki_ | i need to know what is the real program / script sending the mail | 10:57 |
| ikonia | the mail logs should give you a clue as to what's been called | 10:57 |
| ikonia | as mysql users are unlikley to be system users, it must be some app (I'd assume a web app) that the user can access | 10:57 |
| musclez | yeah it froze on that | 10:57 |
| heikki_ | yea, but i cannot find the app. | 10:58 |
| ikonia | heikki_: what have you done to try and trace it ? | 10:59 |
| heikki_ | nothing really, because tracing mail sender programs is a new area for me | 10:59 |
| ikonia | ok - so I've just told you how to start | 11:00 |
| heikki_ | i just know that the log says something about postfix/qmgr | 11:00 |
| ikonia | postfix is hte name of the account running the mail server, you need the other details | 11:00 |
| heikki_ | i know what is postfix, and i think i know what qmgr is | 11:01 |
| ikonia | then why are you struggling ? | 11:02 |
| ikonia | when I give you guidence you keep saying "I know" | 11:03 |
| Preston | Hello, I am trying to build PythonQt libraries, but after I run make, I get error -> ... fatal error: qgl.h: No such file or directory #include <qgl.h> . I have OpenGL installed. | 11:03 |
| ikonia | but you don't know how to take it forward | 11:03 |
| heikki_ | yes | 11:03 |
| heikki_ | ok, as an example, if i have a line like this: Jun 27 13:53:19 servername postfix/qmgr[3225]: 14D6F2AA66: from=<email@hidden>, size=897660, nrcpt=1 (queue active) | 11:04 |
| ikonia | "why are you struggling" ??? the answer is not "yes" | 11:04 |
| heikki_ | :) | 11:04 |
| ikonia | is this your server ? | 11:05 |
| heikki_ | yes | 11:05 |
| ikonia | as in did you set it up / do you manage it ? | 11:05 |
| Preston | Can anybody help? | 11:05 |
| heikki_ | yes / yes | 11:05 |
| ikonia | ok - so is the mail server set to auth before relay ? | 11:05 |
| heikki_ | if you mean open relay, only localhost is allowed to relay without auth | 11:06 |
| ikonia | no, I don't mean open realy | 11:06 |
| heikki_ | ok | 11:06 |
| ikonia | I mean exactly what i've said, is it set to auth before relay | 11:06 |
| qwd | I once had a bash script that would open all kinds of files from the terminal, just as if it had been opened from nautilus, with the command "open". Does this sound familiar to anyone? | 11:07 |
| heikki_ | then i don't understan your question | 11:07 |
| ikonia | is your mail server set to auth before relay | 11:08 |
| heikki_ | how do i see if it is set to auth before relay | 11:08 |
| ikonia | you set it up | 11:08 |
| ikonia | you should know | 11:08 |
| ikonia | thats why I asked "did you set this up" | 11:08 |
| heikki_ | yes, i set it up long time ago | 11:08 |
| ikonia | ok - so check your mail config | 11:08 |
| heikki_ | :) | 11:08 |
| MonkeyDust | qwd try xdg-open | 11:09 |
| heikki_ | ikonia: so what should i check from the log file? | 11:12 |
| heikki_ | i mean conf | 11:12 |
| heikki_ | it has sasl auth | 11:13 |
| ikonia | if your server is set to auth before relay | 11:13 |
| heikki_ | ikonia: my config file is in the postfix format, not in plain english | 11:14 |
| ikonia | postfix is plain english format file | 11:15 |
| heikki_ | :D | 11:15 |
| heikki_ | as i told, it requires auth before relay from hosts other than localhost | 11:15 |
| heikki_ | you confuse me :) | 11:15 |
| qwd | MonkeyDust: Thanks! | 11:15 |
| maxvi | ashmew2: I set headphones volume to 100 and now sound works but after | 11:16 |
| maxvi | reload I need to the same again and again. | 11:16 |
| ikonia | heikki_: you did not tell me that | 11:16 |
| ikonia | you just asked if I meant an open relay | 11:16 |
| ikonia | heikki_: what is your postfix host authing the users/password against | 11:16 |
| heikki_ | in mysql there is a database table of encrypted passwords | 11:17 |
| ikonia | heikki_: do those users have any access to the system or are they just email users | 11:18 |
| heikki_ | just email users, no other access | 11:18 |
| ikonia | ok - so if they can't access the system it must be through some web app | 11:18 |
| heikki_ | yes | 11:18 |
| ikonia | so look in the web root see references to the mail system | 11:18 |
| heikki_ | there are thousands of that kind of references | 11:19 |
| ikonia | thousands ? | 11:19 |
| ikonia | how many web sites are on this server ? | 11:19 |
| heikki_ | well, ok, hundreds | 11:19 |
| heikki_ | depends on what you mean by a site. Lots of vhosts | 11:20 |
| ikonia | define lots | 11:20 |
| heikki_ | :) Where do you need the exact number? | 11:20 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: any progress? | 11:21 |
| musclez | nah it froze when i tried to run that isntall | 11:21 |
| ikonia | heikki_: you don't want to answer my questions, fine, good luck sorting it out | 11:21 |
| ikonia | sounds like you have no idea what is on your system or how it's setup, so you're at risk | 11:21 |
| heikki_ | it is a trade secret | 11:21 |
| ikonia | then you should be able to manage a server, | 11:21 |
| heikki_ | i know i am at risk, and that's why i am trying to learn something right now, and you seem very helpful... | 11:22 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: ok, type mv /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride{.old,} | 11:22 |
| thenewone | Hi guys | 11:22 |
| thenewone | guys how to show the number of process are runing rightnow ? | 11:22 |
| ikonia | thenewone: ps -ef | wc -l | 11:22 |
| musclez | under chroot? | 11:22 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: yeah | 11:22 |
| heikki_ | ikonia: i am not the only one who has access to the server, and i am not the only one making web pages here, so that's the reason i cannot know everything | 11:22 |
| ikonia | heikki_: I'm not interested | 11:23 |
| jrtappers | Is there a way to get headphones detected in pulse "system mode"? | 11:23 |
| musclez | missing desination file | 11:23 |
| musclez | for mv | 11:23 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: did you put the "," at the end before } ? | 11:23 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: ah nevermind | 11:24 |
| musclez | rgr it workd that way i idnt see | 11:24 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: ok, type mv /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride.old /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride | 11:24 |
| EriC^^ | oh ok | 11:24 |
| EriC^^ | right | 11:24 |
| heikki_ | ikonia: do you run a server? | 11:24 |
| qwd | When I open something from the terminal with xdg-open or gvfs-open the terminal is not usable and I have to do ctrl+c to close the running program. How can I make it run in the background instead? Adding "&" at the end doesn't help. | 11:24 |
| thenewone | ikonia, thanks alot | 11:24 |
| thenewone | how to know the last users are connected to linux ? | 11:26 |
| jatt | last | 11:26 |
| thenewone | not the last just in last hour | 11:26 |
| ikonia | last and then look at the time stamp | 11:26 |
| jatt | man last | 11:26 |
| ikonia | you can see when thye logged in / out | 11:26 |
| musclez | eric^^ do i still end to mv or was that first input sufficient? | 11:27 |
| EriC^^ | musclez: type ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride | 11:27 |
| EriC^^ | is it there? | 11:27 |
| ikonia | would it not be quicker to backup/re-install/restore | 11:27 |
| ikonia | you'd have been done by now | 11:27 |
| thenewone | how list folder hwo start with p in any folder | 11:28 |
| musclez | yeah " root root ### may 1 | 11:28 |
| musclez | somehtiung is there | 11:28 |
| ikonia | thenewone: I think you need to learn the basics of the shell | 11:28 |
| heikki_ | seems like no'one cares to help | 11:28 |
| ikonia | thenewone: we are not going to help you with every linux command | 11:28 |
| thenewone | ikonia, i know ls | 11:28 |
| ikonia | thenewone: you need to know more than "ls" | 11:29 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu-server heikki_ | 11:29 |
| EriC^^ | thenewone: ls p* | 11:29 |
| heikki_ | ok | 11:29 |
| ikonia | heikki_: people won't help as you don't share the info | 11:29 |
| thenewone | i know how use shell put list olders who start with p i never to to use it before | 11:29 |
| thenewone | thanks | 11:29 |
| EriC^^ | thenewone: that will list all files though, not just dirs | 11:29 |
| ikonia | hence why I stopped | 11:29 |
| thenewone | but ls p* show files either | 11:29 |
| EriC^^ | yes files and dirs | 11:29 |
| thenewone | i want folder | 11:29 |
| thenewone | only folder | 11:29 |
| ikonia | ls -d | 11:29 |
| qwd | Found the solution at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/264395/linux-equivalent-of-the-mac-os-x-open-command | 11:29 |
| ikonia | so again - please learn the basics | 11:30 |
| heikki_ | ikonia: share the info? LOL! If i ask your bank account details because i am helping you to walk on a street, would you share the info? | 11:30 |
| EriC^^ | thenewone: actually not | 11:30 |
| threesixes | ls -d yeah that's the one | 11:30 |
| EriC^^ | thenewone: use ls -d p* | 11:30 |
| ikonia | heikki_: I didn't ask for your bank details | 11:30 |
| ikonia | I asked for the number of vhosts | 11:30 |
| bazhang | heikki_, chit chat elsewhere NOT here | 11:30 |
| threesixes | y u no teach em man? | 11:30 |
| thenewone | thanks guys | 11:30 |
| heikki_ | you don't need the exact number of vhosts to fix email problems | 11:30 |

| JunkyFunkyKid | well, it seems i downloaded the free star craft version from archive.org, and i cannot start it. | 11:32 |
| JunkyFunkyKid | it says something about open gl libraries being missing. | 11:32 |

| musclez | tj- can i get more assistance if ur available... terminal crashe dwhen i tried to reinstall the kernel and then we got /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride and i have no idea what was going on | 12:05 |
| TJ- | musclez: I'm working at the mo, sorry. I'd suggest trying to get a memtest running from the live ISO... you may have to boot the USB in Legacy mode in order for memtest to work. You may need a dedicated memtest86+ bootable ISO if the Live ISO doesn't work. | 12:08 |
| BluesKaj | these trolls could at least learn some proper English :-) | 12:09 |
| cfhowlett | BluesKaj, , that was a weird accent. I wanted to guess irish or scottish based on the spelling | 12:10 |
| BluesKaj | cfhowlett looked to me like he used a crappy translator | 12:11 |
| reddeath68 | just had a total system freeze and sysrq didnt work(yes it is enabled fully) | 12:13 |
| reddeath68 | any idea where to start looking for problems | 12:13 |
| MonkeyDust | !details | reddeath68 | 12:14 |
| ubottu | reddeath68: 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) | 12:14 |
| reddeath68 | my system suddenyl frooze completely to the point even sysrq would not work, I have been having trouble with fglrx and gpu lockups as well | 12:15 |
| reddeath68 | running ubuntu 14.04.2 fresh install and last memory test I ran (about a week ago) was all clear | 12:16 |
| reddeath68 | any other details needed? | 12:17 |
| musclez | TJ- thanks a lot for the help i'm going to wait until i get more assistance. You guys left me in the middle of an install and then Eric was checking some file locations. now there are no kernels on the boot at all so i dont want to mess with it and make my self worse off. | 12:18 |
| bitnibble | Hi, I've just upgraded vivid (original install was in Dec'14) and I'm struggling to get a working desktop. I have no mouse, I've installed ubuntu-gnome-desktop, rebooted, I login and have a clock with the time from 10 minutes ago top right, a bar with the blue screensave image at the top and no keys do anything. How can I launch a simple xterm please? | 12:20 |
| MonkeyDust | bitnibble if you have more than one pc in the same network, try ssh to the problem pc | 12:22 |
| bitnibble | I need a desktop running. This machine is hosting VLC listening on http but it needs a desktop due to dbus bullshit. | 12:23 |
| reddeath68 | does anyone know where I can start looking for causes of gpu lockup and a full system freeze | 12:24 |
| bitnibble | If you know how to invoke vlc in that mode without the desktop running I'll take it. But what should my expectations of gnome on vivid be? Surely I should be able to do SOMETHING? | 12:24 |
| Ben64 | i think "cvlc" is the command line version | 12:24 |
| collins | is everyone using linux here | 12:27 |
| baja | hey people how so i install u torrent | 12:27 |
| baja | do | 12:27 |
| MonkeyDust | !info utorrent | 12:27 |
| ubottu | Package utorrent does not exist in vivid | 12:27 |
| MonkeyDust | baja try deluge | 12:28 |
| baja | ok | 12:28 |
| collins | okay?????? | 12:28 |
| MonkeyDust | collins this is the ubuntu support channel | 12:28 |
| cfhowlett | collins, we use ubuntu. what do you use? | 12:28 |
| bitnibble | cvlc still throws 5 errors (not warnings) including dbus. It's listening but vlc remote is not connecting. Maybe it's not a desktop issue but the desktop sure is useless | 12:28 |
| ashmew2 | baja, just for the heads up, transmission seems to misbehave with most trackers I use. Deluge is pretty decent. | 12:29 |
| baja | ok im downloading deluge | 12:29 |
| ayejoike | deluge is awesome | 12:30 |
| ayejoike | deluge is the only torrent client that doesn't have a Yes/No spyware contract | 12:30 |
| ayejoike | like Azereus or uTorrent do | 12:30 |
| OerHeks | standard transmission does not have that either, ayejoike | 12:31 |
| reddeath68 | trying to figure out total system freeze(sysrq would not work and it is enabled) ran a memory test last week which came back clean, running ubuntu 14.04.2 fresh install fglrx graphics running HD redeon 7660D | 12:32 |
| ayejoike | oh yeah forgot about btlaunchmany.py. Why doesn't btlaunchmany.py work anymore? | 12:32 |
| ayejoike | I have to use deluge | 12:32 |
| ayejoike | is the a program like 3D Ripper for Linux | 12:36 |
| ayejoike | err ubuntu I guess | 12:36 |
| ayejoike | 3D Ripper 3D Rippe rwhere it rips DirectX 3D data from Windows program windows | 12:36 |
| studio_ | hi | 12:41 |
| studio_ | what new ubuntu server version is running on an "VIA C7 Eden"? | 12:41 |
| cfhowlett | !server | studio_ | 12:42 |
| ubottu | studio_: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide - Support in #ubuntu-server | 12:42 |
| studio_ | the problem is the kernel, therefore i asked. the VIA C7 Eden is an old x86 cpu | 12:43 |
| MonkeyDust | studio_ start from the beginning, what brings you here | 12:44 |
| OerHeks | 32 bit server, AFAIK | 12:44 |
| studio_ | i am looking for na image to install on my old firewall | 12:44 |
| studio_ | na=an | 12:44 |
| TJ- | studio_: I suspect you'd need an old 32-bit kernel that doesn't have PAE support built in, because I don't thnk the C7 has PAE support | 12:45 |
| studio_ | TJ-, right | 12:45 |
| TJ- | studio_: I think Debian still has non-PAE builds | 12:45 |
| OerHeks | lubuntu too | 12:45 |
| studio_ | the lates debian "mini.iso" isn't working :( | 12:46 |
| TJ- | studio_: maybe this will help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/9w | 12:47 |
| studio_ | is the a "mini" non-pae image from xubuntu for servers? | 12:48 |
| studio_ | ahh, will read ... | 12:48 |

| IrfanAlam_ | TJ-: it is listening....how to protect then ? | 12:58 |
| TJ- | IrfanAlam_: you don't protect the ports, you protect the <vhost> that is set to answer on that port | 12:58 |
| IrfanAlam_ | TJ-: how ? | 12:58 |
| TJ- | IrfanAlam_: read the documentation that is what it is there for | 12:59 |
| IrfanAlam_ | TJ-: can you tell me under which heading it is ? | 13:01 |

| TJ- | OerHeks: " Lubuntu 12.04 is out of support and should not be used. " | 13:10 |
| IrfanAlam_ | TJ-: see you soon after some days ! | 13:10 |
| OerHeks | TJ-, oh, you are right, 3 year | 13:10 |
| TJ- | reddeath68: have you discounted overheating ? | 13:11 |
| TJ- | OerHeks: there's some footnotes right at the end of that page with the supported releases info ... good job I always read the smallprint :) | 13:11 |
| skinux | Does Ubuntu use GRUB 1, 2, or ELILO now? | 13:13 |
| TJ- | skinux: GRUB2 | 13:13 |
| skinux | Okay. | 13:14 |
| reddeath68 | TJ-, I have the side of my system and it runs a top fan that uncoverd dont think heat is the issue | 13:15 |
| skinux | My MBR (for some reason) can't find a system disk to boot, I have to use EFI boot manager to select an OS. So, I believe I need to install GRUB to MBR to fix it. | 13:15 |
| reddeath68 | OerHeks, what am I looking for in the log? | 13:15 |
| studio_ | OerHeks, is this "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/non-pae/mini.iso" what i need? | 13:17 |
| TJ- | skinux: If the system is UEFI and the OS entry is missing from the menu, the entry simply needs re-adding. MBR has nothing to do with it. First of all, does the UEFI boot menu include a boot to "shell" option? | 13:18 |
| OerHeks | reddeath68, i think you want to explore the end of the log, multiple warnings, or jumps in log time gives a clue | 13:18 |
| TJ- | reddeath68: If not heat, and this issue has recently begun, consider what you've changed/done to the system at that time... I'd be considering PCI{e} adapters that have become slightly unseated, cabling issues, external device connections, possible power-supply glitches | 13:20 |
| reddeath68 | TJ-, honestly I believe my graphics arent playing nice with the .2 stack of 14.04.2 | 13:21 |
| TJ- | reddeath68: It's possible... are there alternative drivers for the GPU you can switch to? | 13:21 |
| reddeath68 | TJ-, I havent heard of any aside from catalyst which on previous install didnt seem to like .2 stack very much either im using a amd HD radeon 7660D | 13:23 |
| skinux | TJ: I'm not sure if it does or not. However, if I boot the machine without pressing F12 (for EFI boot menu), it says system not not found and tries to do PXE boot which also fails. It then says to reboot by pressing a key. | 13:24 |
| skinux | TJ: It used to boot into Windows boot selection, but now it says disk not found. | 13:25 |
| reddeath68 | OerHeks, there is only one time jump i see and its around time of freeze http://paste.ubuntu.com/11783435/ | 13:25 |
| anrafel | hola alguien habla espaƱol | 13:29 |
| TJ- | skinux: Right, so the firmware isn't finding a bootable device. If you use F12 does it list the disk that has the operating systems installed ? | 13:29 |
| skinux | Yes, pressing F12 I'm able to boot into either Linux or Windows. | 13:29 |
| TJ- | skinux: Is that via UEFI entries that are named "Windows" or "Ubuntu" or similar, *or* by simply selecting the disk drive and then the GRUB boot-loader starting and offering a choice? | 13:30 |
| skinux | If I select Ubuntu, I get GRUB, if I select Windows then I get Windows boot manager. | 13:31 |
| anrafel | somebody speack spanish, i need some help, please | 13:32 |
| TJ- | skinux: Right, so it's a full UEFI boot then *and* the boot menu has the entries there. So it sounds like your problem is simply that you need to go into the full firmware Setup and set the default boot entry correctly. Right now it obviously has an incorrect default so it fails to boot. | 13:32 |

| rictoo | hello, i want to setup a bridge from eth0 to wlan0 (eth0 connected to gateway) with an OpenVPN connection and allow clients to connect via wlan0 to get eth0+openVPN | 13:36 |
| rictoo | is this possibnle? | 13:36 |
| MonkeyDust | rictoo i guess ##networking is a better place for that question | 13:37 |
| rictoo | ok | 13:38 |
| reddeath68 | so after my system freeze upon searching the kernel log I found this one suspicious line http://paste.ubuntu.com/11783435/ | 13:43 |
| TJ- | reddeath68: I'm going to stick my neck out and suggest a sticky bit in one of the RAM modules, despite what memtest says - it's not infallible. I've often cured this kind of issue by simply reseating the RAM modules or swapping them around in the slots. | 13:47 |
| skinux | TJ: I found a fix. First of all UEFI boot was turned off, so I turned it on. Then I moved Linux to top of UEFI boot menu and now it boots into Ubuntu on it's own. | 13:47 |
| TJ- | skinux: Well done :) | 13:48 |
| reddeath68 | TJ-, that soundslike a decent idea to try it may also explain the random firefox and wine crashes I experience infrequently | 13:48 |
| skinux | Obviously, the MBR got torqed though, because that's what it was trying to use. | 13:48 |
| reddeath68 | TJ-, ill be sure to also blow out the system when I reset the ram | 13:48 |
| TJ- | reddeath68: but I have to say my gut reaction would still be localised overheating first - CPU, GPU, Southbridge chipset or possibly even the RAM modules depending on what type they are and if the system is overclocked or overvolted | 13:49 |
| TJ- | sticky bits very rarely cause a complete lock-up without seeing a lot of things going wrong first | 13:50 |
| reddeath68 | TJ-, possibly hopefully blowing it out and reseating the ram will make a difference | 13:50 |
| TJ- | reddeath68: Yes... reseat everything and check cables, and look for damaged Electrolytic capacitors around the motherboard volytage regulator circuitry | 13:51 |
| TJ- | reddeath68: look for tops of capacitors starting to bulge, or signs of lakage around their base | 13:51 |
| reddeath68 | TJ-, will do | 13:51 |
| TJ- | reddeath68: good luck ... I'm off to do some kernel testing | 13:51 |
| reddeath68 | tjok thnx | 13:52 |
| tr3y | Hey guys I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit on a Lenovo G580 laptop. I'm having a weird WiFi issue. It usually works fine but occasionally when I close the lid and leave it over night, I wake it up and can't connect to the WiFi without resetting the router. Any ideas? | 13:56 |
| MonkeyDust | tr3y that's not weird, it's simply unstable | 14:02 |

| darthanubis | pombreda, I don't walk when I can drive, if I don't have to. But walking is great exercise. | 16:27 |
| Waldeinsamkeit | but im afrid thats only for older kernals... | 16:27 |
| Remoboth_ | I share a router.... | 16:27 |
| pombreda | darthanubis: :D | 16:28 |
| Remoboth_ | Roommate has an ethernet cord... | 16:28 |
| Remoboth_ | With two listed networks... | 16:28 |
| Remoboth_ | His band of the router and SMB Server. | 16:28 |
| Remoboth_ | IS SMB Server anything malicious or invasive? | 16:28 |
| Remoboth_ | Potentially? | 16:28 |
| darthanubis | no | 16:28 |

| darthanubis | whut? | 16:32 |
| asarch | Hi TJ-, yesterday I was asking about setting "priorities" in wireless connections, I tried your command today and I found that doing "sudo iwlist scan wlan0" I don't get the recent turned-on AP name, but if I do "iwlist wpi0 scannig", it appears. | 16:32 |
| asarch | Can I set that option in the NetworkManager? | 16:32 |
| asarch | Or should I replace NetworkManager with WICD? | 16:32 |
| darthanubis | I would not use wicd | 16:33 |
| asarch | Why? | 16:33 |
| TJ- | asarch: Well, that simply looks like your Wireless interface doesn't have the default name I used in the example command I gave you. | 16:33 |
| darthanubis | I see no advantage to doing so. If it aint broke... | 16:33 |
| tertiary | is there any reason to install graphics drivers on Ubuntu Server? I will be running software that processes images through the gpu... | 16:34 |
| TJ- | asarch: You might want to check the Network Manager Connection in case it is *not* set to use the wpi0 interface | 16:34 |
| asarch | NetworkManager is somehow broken in this new release darthanubis | 16:34 |
| darthanubis | maybe for you | 16:34 |
| TJ- | asarch: I bet it is simply an interface name-change | 16:34 |
| asarch | Ok, I'll check it | 16:35 |
| asarch | Thank you TJ- | 16:35 |
| darthanubis | but "somehow broken" is vague | 16:35 |
| asarch | Thank you very much guys | 16:35 |
| Jakethepython | hello room, for a network of less than 10 computers is it better to set up a workgroup? or a domain? | 16:35 |
| Jakethepython | i know they are completely different things | 16:36 |
| darthanubis | workgroup | 16:36 |
| asarch | Because if I turn off and then re-turn on wireless connections I can see my AP name as available darthanubis | 16:36 |
| mikubuntu | does anybody have any actual experience using a speech to text program in ubuntu? i don't see any of the options in the software center from this page -- http://www.brighthub.com/computing/linux/articles/92561.aspx -- my sis is disabled and has trouble typing i'd like to find something that works even moderately well, if not perfect | 16:36 |

| asarch | And, for a laptop that it is being used for your wife... | 16:36 |
| darthanubis | why is the wifi being toggled at all? | 16:37 |
| darthanubis | nevermind | 16:37 |
| asarch | She gets mad every time she turns on the laptop and then later turn on the AP device and its laptops doesn't get any connection automatically | 16:37 |
| darthanubis | later turn on the AP device? Why is the AP being turned off? | 16:38 |
| darthanubis | what kind of AP, what frimware is it running | 16:38 |
| darthanubis | firmware | 16:38 |
| darthanubis | I've found the issue more to be with the router than NetworkManager | 16:38 |
| darthanubis | certain aspects of linux now are just rock solid | 16:39 |
| asarch | Last night I changed the AP | 16:39 |
| darthanubis | NM has come a long way | 16:39 |
| darthanubis | changed how? | 16:39 |
| asarch | The first one was an EchoLife 530c | 16:39 |
| darthanubis | never heard of that | 16:39 |
| asarch | This new one is a Huawei HG532i | 16:40 |
| darthanubis | factory firmware? | 16:40 |
| asarch | Both are actually from Huaweii | 16:40 |
| darthanubis | I flash my routers with DD-WRT or Gargoyle and never have to touch them afterwards | 16:40 |
| asarch | I don't know about the firmware | 16:40 |
| asarch | I get those from my ISP | 16:41 |
| darthanubis | you should find out more about your router firmware, and how to upgrade it | 16:41 |
| darthanubis | ahhh | 16:41 |
| darthanubis | ISP routers | 16:41 |
| TJ- | darthanubis: asarch issue only started after an Ubuntu upgrade; it isn't caused by the router | 16:41 |

| darthanubis | sorry!!! | 16:42 |
| TJ- | asarch: If you could pastebin the "/var/log/syslog" after a boot when this has just happened we might be able to pin down the cause, and a solution, because Network Manager logs quite verbosely to that file. | 16:43 |
| darthanubis | I meant ot not op | 16:43 |
| asarch | I have this recently one | 16:43 |
| asarch | Let me paste the infor TJ- | 16:43 |
| === iulian is now known as Guest64115 | ||
| TJ- | asarch: "pastebinit /var/log/syslog" is the easy way | 16:44 |
| OerHeks | darthanubis, no harm done :-) | 16:45 |
| mikubuntu | does anybody have any actual experience using a speech to text program in ubuntu? i don't see any of the options in the software center from this page -- http://www.brighthub.com/computing/linux/articles/92561.aspx -- my sis is disabled and has trouble typing i'd like to find something that works even moderately well, if not perfect | 16:45 |
| darthanubis | OerHeks, thx | 16:45 |
| TJ- | mikubuntu: There used to be some good support for partially sighted, text-to-speech. IN GUIs Gnome used to be about the most accomplished (although a bit patchy compared to Windows) but since Ubuntu developed Unity I've never seen any indication of serious attention paid to accessibility | 16:47 |
| rictoo | what's the difference between a duck? | 16:47 |

| TJ- | asarch: Ouch! You've got a nasty kernel oops there at the end! | 16:51 |
| alexmob | adellam, why? | 16:51 |

| Remoboth_ | Guys. I had Seamonkey Mozilla Build and Chatzilla extension... | 16:52 |
| asarch | The machine is up a running however | 16:52 |
| Remoboth_ | I deleted SEamonkey but I Can't seem to delete Chatzilla. | 16:53 |
| Remoboth_ | Any help? | 16:53 |
| OerHeks | Remoboth_, see if that service is still running? terminal: top | 16:53 |
| Remoboth_ | OerHeks - Nope. | 16:55 |
| TJ- | asarch: The only AP association shown there goes off perfectly. There is however an issue with configuring the local private instance of dnsmasq (the caching DNS server) which might mean that hostname lookups fail | 16:56 |
| TJ- | asarch: that's at pastebin line 16707 | 16:56 |
| mikubuntu | TJ-: well if it comes to pass let me know, i'd be interested to see. meantime i'm wondering what to do to get some speech to text functionality for sis -- but the pickings seem slim. | 16:57 |
| asarch | But that issue is not related with the fact that the recent AP is not listed as available connection, right? | 16:57 |
| OerHeks | Remoboth_, how did you install seamonkey & chatzilla in the first place? | 16:57 |
| Remoboth_ | OerHeks - It came with the install of LXLE... | 16:58 |
| Remoboth_ | I know LXLE isn't supported here.. | 16:58 |
| Remoboth_ | But you guys have helped me with other uninstall issues. | 16:58 |
| OerHeks | reinstall seamonkey, disable chatzilla and remove it? | 16:58 |
| Jakethepython | i am not able to mount a drive it says it is not in FSTAB could someone please help me? | 17:00 |
| TJ- | mikubuntu: text to speech is much more successful in text/console mode than GUI. Accessibility is a poor area for Linux GUIs in particular since there's no company legally responsible for implementing it and few volunteers to work on the code. Most mainstream developers pay little to no attention to providing accessibility services. | 17:00 |

| Jakethepython | hardware raid | 17:04 |
| EriC^^ | Jakethepython: ok, i dunno much about that | 17:04 |
| zhongfu | Trodj: I'd guess https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_crossover_cable | 17:05 |
| zhongfu | although i'd guess most gigabit NICs don't need a crossover cable because of auto mdi-x | 17:05 |
| Trodj | zhongfu: Yes, but why should this prevent sniffing? | 17:05 |
| zhongfu | Trodj: well, the site you linked appears to talk about sniffing with switches | 17:06 |
| zhongfu | so eliminate the switch (and connect devices directly), and it'll be much harder to sniff packets without compromising either end i guess | 17:07 |
| robby7887 | has anyone used openstack or worked with it? | 17:07 |
| hkrrsx | Trodj: Crossover cables allow direct connections betwen 2 machines using a single cable ...... there's no break in the chain to sniff packets | 17:07 |
| hkrrsx | Solid point-A to point-B connection | 17:07 |
| hkrrsx | Kind of like the connection between your wrist and elbow | 17:08 |
| Trodj | hkrrsx: ARP spoofing for example | 17:09 |
| hkrrsx | Trodj: What about ARP spoofing? | 17:11 |
| Trodj | hkrrsx: You could sniff packets with ARP spoofing | 17:11 |
| hkrrsx | Not when using a crossover cable to directly connect 2 machines together | 17:12 |
| Trodj | hkrrsx: Well, ok. But you can't do this in real. So what's the best solution? | 17:14 |
| Waldeinsamkeit | burning burning.... | 17:14 |
| Waldeinsamkeit | i want ubunto on my comp ... | 17:14 |
| hkrrsx | Trodj: The best solution to prevent packet sniffing? | 17:15 |
| Trodj | Yes | 17:15 |
| hkrrsx | Trodj: Preliminary research suggests encrypting your traffic | 17:16 |
| hkrrsx | You can't exactly stop people from sniffing traffic on a network ...... but you can take measures to protect your data streams | 17:16 |
| hkrrsx | Here is the search I did on the topic and came up with a fair amount of hits: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=prevent+packet+sniffing&t=ffcm&ia=qa | 17:17 |
| Waldeinsamkeit | or you could just install whonix | 17:17 |
| Waldeinsamkeit | https://www.whonix.org/ | 17:18 |
| Waldeinsamkeit | i hear that does a good job of stopping packet sniffing and well everything else too | 17:18 |

| stony2 | Can anybody help me setup upstart? My server crashes every once in a while and i want it to restart itself | 17:28 |
| bodhi_zazen | If someone has physical access to your network, or they can intercept your wireless signal , you really can not prevent packet sniffing | 17:29 |
| bodhi_zazen | Best you can do is to not use wireless and physically secure your network | 17:29 |
| bodhi_zazen | second best is to use encryption protocols so your packets are encrypted, such as ssh, https etc | 17:30 |
| bodhi_zazen | stony2, depends on why it crashes | 17:30 |
| stony2 | bodhi - its just the service that is crashing not the machine | 17:31 |
| stony2 | my machine stays running but the game server it's hosting goes down - sorry that was unclear | 17:31 |
| bodhi_zazen | What service and why is it crashing ? bare metal or a VM ? | 17:31 |
| bodhi_zazen | did you look at the logs to see if you can determine why it crashes ? | 17:32 |

| Katronix | Hi all, I have a MicroSD card I'm trying to create an image of using the dd command. When I allow Ubuntu to auto mount the SD card, its mounting /dev/sdb3, /dev/sdb5, and /dev/sdb6 can someone suggest to me what the dd command would be? | 17:36 |
| Katronix | anyone here? | 17:39 |
| mtn | Katronix, it mounts the card to all three at once? | 17:40 |
| bodhi_zazen | dd if=/dev/sdb of=your_file -options | 17:40 |
| Katronix | mtn yes | 17:41 |
| stony2 | bodhi - VDS its ShooterGameService ARK dedicated server | 17:41 |
| mtn | Katronix, you only use the device, not the partition. so, /dev/sdb | 17:41 |
| stony2 | Making breakfasat sorry for late response | 17:41 |
| bodhi_zazen | stony2, have you an upstart script for it already ? | 17:41 |
| Katronix | thanks | 17:41 |
| bodhi_zazen | Katronix, and you probably want to unmount all 3 partitions first, although not strictly necessary | 17:42 |
| stony2 | bodhi_zazen, No, I do not. I got into the guide and it was very confusing | 17:42 |
| Katronix | bodhi_zazen: since its a bootable SD card, I assumed I wanted to :) | 17:43 |
| stony2 | bodhi_zazen, i'm about a week into ubuntu, i'd love to know why its crashing but i'd settle for just having it work | 17:43 |
| stony2 | bodhi = the upstart script that is | 17:44 |
| bodhi_zazen | stony2, simple script | 17:45 |
| bodhi_zazen | start on runlevel [2345] | 17:45 |
| bodhi_zazen | stop on runlevel [016] | 17:45 |
| bodhi_zazen | respawn | 17:45 |
| bodhi_zazen | exec su -c your_start_command | 17:45 |
| stony2 | ARK is still in early access - plenty are running the game without crashes... but many have no idea why they are or are not working | 17:45 |
| bodhi_zazen | but best to debug your server | 17:45 |
| jak2015 | how to install vim? | 17:46 |
| stony2 | Whats a good place to start? there is no working log feature yet with ARK | 17:46 |
| stony2 | I'll give u access to the server if you think you can debug it bodhi | 17:46 |
| bodhi_zazen | jak2015, apt-get install vim || apt-get install vim-full | 17:46 |
| bodhi_zazen | stony2, I am playing mandolin at the moment, but I may take you up on the offer later | 17:47 |
| stony2 | and i'd pay you for your time | 17:47 |
| bodhi_zazen | lol | 17:47 |
| stony2 | Cool | 17:47 |
| bodhi_zazen | start the server from the command line, do not deamonize it or put it in the background | 17:48 |
| bodhi_zazen | watch for errors | 17:48 |
| jak2015 | thanks | 17:48 |
| bodhi_zazen | jak2015, you almost certainly want vim-full | 17:48 |
| jak2015 | bodhi_zazen any advice how to format my: /dev/sdb2 | 17:48 |
| jak2015 | E: Unable to locate package vim-full | 17:48 |
| tertiary | anyone know how to diagnose being stuck at "Loading initial ramdisk..."? | 17:48 |
| bodhi_zazen | what file system ? mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb2 | 17:49 |
| stony2 | bodhi, it is an ubuntu server so i need I need to figure out the monitoring part - sorry i'm so new at this - going to eat | 17:49 |
| jak2015 | bodhi_zazen wich is better ext3 or ext4 | 17:49 |
| bodhi_zazen | mkfs.vfat dev.sdb2 , etc | 17:49 |
| bodhi_zazen | jak2015, depends on what you want, but in general, unless you have a specific task, I suggest ext4 | 17:50 |
| bodhi_zazen | stony2, run it in screen ;) | 17:50 |
| bodhi_zazen | then you can detach | 17:50 |

| Scomber | Hi! Need some help. I accidently loaded a new partition table to a disk with data that I shouldnt have. I used: # sgdisk --load-backup=table /dev/sdg . It should have said sdh in the end. Fortunate enough the kernel is using the disk so the response I got was: "Warning: The kernel is still using the old partition table. The new table will be used at the next reboot. The operation has completed | 17:56 |
| Scomber | successfully.". Is there any way for me to abort the use of the new partitontable? | 17:56 |

| Katronix | bodhi_zazen: I'm assuming when I unmount the SDCard under VirtualBox it returns control of it to the Guest OS | 18:09 |
| Katronix | errr HostOS | 18:09 |
| Katronix | bodhi_zazen: the sda is not from the SDCard, which is what I'm trying to clone | 18:10 |
| bodhi_zazen | OK, well remount the drive in VBOX then and you should be able to clone it with dd as long as none of the files are in use | 18:11 |
| Katronix | ok | 18:12 |
| Katronix | will it also make a bootable image? as is the ultimate goal, the SDCard is bootable | 18:12 |
| Katronix | bodhi_zazen: well its doing something :) | 18:15 |
| bodhi_zazen | Katronix, It should | 18:18 |

| hypernova | theres 1739 linux geeks here | 19:52 |
| hypernova | im sure one of them most likely knows the answer to your question | 19:53 |
| ArkansasOWL | Will this command work? tar -cvpzf backup-$(date +%Y-%m-%d) /sourcedir/ /backupdir/ | 19:53 |
| popey | depends what you think it should do :) | 19:53 |
| Kleggas | have you tried it? :) | 19:53 |
| ArkansasOWL | not yet. it's a very large directory. just want to be safe | 19:54 |
| henry8989 | hello i just did an ndis driver isntall on kubuntu and it says that the device and driver are both present but it will not let me configure the network it says network manager not installed | 19:54 |
| MonkeyDust | ArkansasOWL then try it first with a small directory | 19:54 |
| ArkansasOWL | will do thanks | 19:54 |
| SchrodingersScat | ArkansasOWL: would you want something like tar -cvpzf "/backupdir/backup-$(date +%Y-%m-%d).tar" /sourcedir/ ? like other said, test with some example directories | 19:55 |
| hkrrsx | henry8989: sudo apt-get install network-manager | 19:56 |
| henry8989 | it will work even for kubuntu | 19:57 |
| hkrrsx | Or perhaps network-manager-kde | 19:57 |
| threesixes | the kde frontend is "networkmanagement" | 19:58 |
| henry8989 | i did that but ndis says cannot find network configuration tool | 20:01 |
| henry8989 | now | 20:01 |
| rypervenche | ArkansasOWL: Just FYI, date +%F is the same as date +%Y-%m-%d :) | 20:03 |
| ArkansasOWL | I see that. I found the right command. thanks for all your help | 20:04 |
| almark | ArkansasOWL what do you want with the /backupdir/ directory ? | 20:04 |
| administ1ator | has anyone used or worked with openstack | 20:05 |
| ArkansasOWL | it worked with tar -cvpzf /backupdir/backup-$(date+%Y-%m-%d).tar.gz sourcedir/ | 20:06 |

| lala | Does anyone know how to use Clonezilla? | 21:10 |
| lala | Or does anyone recommend any alternatives to Clonezilla? | 21:10 |
| lala | I would like to manage my server similar to how I can make snapshots on my virtual machine. | 21:11 |
| EriC^^ | deadeyeduncan: if you use the lower source i find it gets higher without cracking | 21:12 |
| EriC^^ | the one that has a # and a number | 21:12 |
| mcphail | lala: If you're brave enough to use btrfs on a server, it has snapshots built-in | 21:13 |
| EriC^^ | i mean sink deadeyeduncan | 21:13 |
| lala | mcphail: Is it easy to set up? | 21:14 |
| rypervenche | lala: What is your ultimate goal in snapshots? | 21:14 |
| lala | rypervenche: My ultimate goal is... say if I make some changes to the server... (for example, I added more packages and I wanted to test them out and I found that I no longer needed them, and I don't want to go through the mess of cleaning the OS to make sure no traces and extra junk is left behind, simply to keep the system very clean and also to manage it | 21:16 |
| lala | so that I can go back to a snapshot in case if I ended up changing stuff unintentionally). | 21:16 |
| deadeyeduncan | sink? | 21:16 |
| rypervenche | lala: Did you install using LVM? | 21:16 |
| lala | rypervenche: Yes. | 21:16 |
| rypervenche | lala: LVM supports snapshots. You can create a snapshot using that. | 21:16 |
| lala | rypervenche: Ubuntu Server 14.04.2 LTS with LVM using the entire disk. | 21:17 |
| rypervenche | lala: You will need to shrink your file system to add space to your VG (volume group) and then you can make snapshots and even mount them while the system is running. | 21:17 |
| lala | rypervenche: Is the LVM method cleaner and easier to use? | 21:17 |
| lala | rypervenche: Okay. I'm sold. Where are the tutorials to set this up? | 21:17 |
| EriC^^ | deadeyeduncan: yeah, in paman, when you go to devices | 21:18 |
| rypervenche | lala: I can take a look online and see if I can find anything that looks good. | 21:18 |
| lala | rypervenche: Okie dokie. | 21:18 |
| EriC^^ | deadeyeduncan: how did you fix the volume in paman? | 21:19 |
| deadeyeduncan | i just went to playback | 21:21 |

| deadeyeduncan | and put upt he main volume some | 21:21 |

| blib | how do I get ubuntu 14.04 installer with a kernel version > 3.19 or better 4.0.6? | 21:30 |
| bnrf | blib: Why? | 21:31 |
| Bashing-om | blib: I could be wrong, but, 3.19 will not be available in the installer til the .3 release . Maybe install the kernel in the existing install ? | 21:32 |
| blib | I can't install it on a nuc intel | 21:33 |
| bnrf | the kernel stack is the closest supported | 21:33 |
| Blaster | Hey ya'll I'm trying to get bluetooth working on Ubuntu 14.10, and when I open the Bluetooth dialog, it just continuously says searching for devices even though I have 2 devices near my computer that are discoverable. Any advice? | 21:33 |
| blib | the installer hangs - intel guys say, they don't support anything below 3.19 | 21:33 |
| Blaster | My motherboard (Asus Z87-Pro) has onboard bluetooth and wifi which both aren't working. | 21:33 |
| almark | bluetooth still sortof sucks on linux | 21:35 |
| almark | what's the wifi chipster Blaster ? | 21:35 |
| almark | chipset | 21:35 |
| Blaster | almark: @p548326A8.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) has joined #ubuntu | 21:36 |
| Blaster | Whoops... | 21:36 |
| bnrf | blib: You can install what you want ir need, it is an issue of support at times here is all, you gotta know what your doing really. No releases as you want as of now. | 21:36 |
| Blaster | AR9462 Wireless Network Adapter | 21:36 |
| BBLLCC | what is spoofing? | 21:37 |
| BBLLCC | .w spoofing | 21:37 |
| bodhi_zazen | BBLLCC, in what context ? | 21:37 |
| bmagis | blib: you can download the packages from here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and install them with dpkg | 21:37 |
| BBLLCC | i have been asked if i wish to enable that | 21:37 |
| bodhi_zazen | Asked by who / what ? | 21:38 |
| kostkon | BBLLCC, spoof what exactly | 21:38 |
| almark | does it show up in dmesg Blaster ? | 21:40 |
| Blaster | almark: What should I grep for in that list? | 21:41 |
| Blaster | I see this line: [ 4.292084] ieee80211 phy0: Atheros AR9462 Rev:2 mem=0xffffc90005d00000, irq=17 | 21:41 |
| jhutchins | Blaster: That suggests that the driver isn't loading. | 21:41 |
| Blaster | jhutchins, what suggests that? | 21:41 |
| jhutchins | Blaster: The fact that the dialog doesn't find it. | 21:41 |
| jhutchins | Blaster: lspci -nn might be of interest too. I don't think 802.11 is Bluetooth. | 21:42 |
| jhutchins | Blaster: Yeah, that's wifi. | 21:42 |
| b1001 | Hi guys.. How can I emulate/simulate a USB device (keyboard or w/e) being inserted. | 21:43 |
| Blaster | jhutchins, here's the output from lspci -nn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11785392/ | 21:43 |
| jhutchins | Blaster: Bluetooth is 802.15 | 21:43 |
| Blaster | Alright. | 21:43 |
| Blaster | How can I find which kernel version I have? I just read on askubuntu that bluetooth support is limited for my mobo on < 3.14.x | 21:44 |
| almark | uname -a | 21:44 |
| b1001 | Blaster: uname -a | 21:44 |
| Blaster | Hmm I have 3.16.0-39-generic | 21:45 |
| jhutchins | Blaster: Oops, wrong terminal, that one doesn't have bluetooth. Still chacking. | 21:46 |
| kostkon | Blaster, does rfkill list list your bluetooth device | 21:48 |
| Blaster | kostkon, I see this line: 0: hci0: Bluetooth | 21:48 |
| jhutchins | Blaster: I was just going to suggest rfkill. I don't see mine in my pci list. | 21:48 |
| Blaster | I have a feeling I don't have the drivers installed, but I'm not sure if they're even existent. These are onboard WIFI and bluetooth on my z87-pro mobo with an AR9462 Wireless Network Adapter chipset. | 21:49 |
| almark | Blaster what does ifconfig show? | 21:50 |
| jhutchins | Blaster: Is it blocked? | 21:50 |
| Blaster | http://paste.ubuntu.com/11785414/ | 21:50 |
| abkabkabk | any1 got a log viewer that has tabs, ie if my app prints [debug] msg1 its in tab 1, and if it prints [network] its in tab2? is this possible? | 21:50 |
| Blaster | Both show blocked: no | 21:50 |
| almark | Blaster what if you try this sudo ifconfig wlan0 up ? | 21:51 |
| Blaster | SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill | 21:52 |
| jhutchins | !bluetooth | 21:52 |
| ubottu | For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 21:52 |
| vbgunz | what program switchs screens/monitors found in xorg.conf? | 21:53 |
| jhutchins | almark: I thought he was trying to get bluetooth working, not wifi. | 21:53 |
| almark | hmmm | 21:53 |
| Blaster | Both are broken, but I'm more concerned about bluetooth than wifi right now. | 21:53 |
| jhutchins | vbgunz: xrandr | 21:53 |
| almark | i thought he was interested in getting both working jhutchins | 21:53 |
| Blaster | ^ | 21:54 |
| vbgunz | xrandr really? I know I can change monitor settings using xrandr but there is supposed to be another program that goes into xorg.conf and uses what's found there | 21:54 |
| vbgunz | let me check really quick | 21:54 |
| vbgunz | I don't think it's xrandr I'm looking for | 21:55 |
| Blaster | So I should install bluez python-gobject and python-dbus to get bluetooth working as recommended in BluetoothSetup doc? | 21:56 |
| vbgunz | man, I'm looking for something and it's not xrandr. it's a program that utilizes xorg.conf in real time and I believe it's a primitive/archaic/ancient program that already comes in Ubuntu. I just forgot the name :/ | 21:57 |
| vbgunz | I think it might be xinit | 21:58 |
| jhutchins | Blaster: You might also try aptitude search blue and see if anything likely is missing. | 22:01 |
| === fy is now known as nicechap | ||
| Blaster | Ugh still stuck. Don't see anything there jhutchins, and I already have all the packages installed as recommended by the BluetoothSetup document. | 22:05 |

| musclez | of just me and mentions of my name though, not the entire channel | 22:29 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: OK, the -32 kernel had me going . Booting the liveUSB gives another slant on things. What is the result when attempting to boot the install ? Shall we "look" at what kernels are in the install ? | 22:31 |
| musclez | ther are no kenels or memtest in the boot | 22:31 |
| allizom | bnrf: Shouldn't the default greeter have issues too if it's a GPU drivers hiccup? that shows fine at maximum resolution | 22:32 |

| vary | and with ubuntu installed I can not connect to the internet and even when booting from HDD is disabled, the computer still boots Ubuntu | 22:37 |
| bnrf | vary: Laptop or desktop? | 22:37 |
| vary | Desktop, it's a friend's | 22:37 |
| allizom | bnrf: do you think starting an older kernel from GRUB advanced options menu would do for a test? | 22:37 |
| bnrf | vary: Very loose and I mean loose description, not really understandable here. | 22:38 |
| musclez | bashging-om : http://termbin.com/pcin | 22:38 |
| bnrf | allizom: No, from the grub menu. | 22:38 |
| vary | Friend fucked his windows 7 - fucked up installing fresh version too. Now windows 7 won't install from CD/DVD So I've temporarily put ubuntu on there | 22:38 |
| vary | now: When I try to install windows 7 from the dvd/usb | 22:39 |
| bnrf | allizom: If the previous kernel works, it is likely a graphic issue tied to a kernel upgrade. | 22:39 |
| bazhang | no cursing here vary | 22:39 |
| vary | oh ok, my bad | 22:39 |
| Bozza | does that mean it is a usb 1.1 device? usb 1-1: New USB device found, | 22:39 |
| Bozza | in dmesg | 22:39 |
| Bozza | i get this | 22:39 |
| vary | When I try to install windows 7 from usb/dvd with ubuntu installed, it still boots to ubuntu even though I changed boot order and even disabled booting to hdd | 22:39 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: I do not know what to make of that file's existence . Additional info please 'file var/lib/dpkg/statoverride ' . Let's see if we can peek into it . | 22:40 |
| vary | When I try to install windows 7 from usb/dvd with no operating system installed, the keyboard will not work during the 'press any key to boot from USB/DVD' | 22:40 |
| bazhang | vary that sounds like a windows installer issue | 22:40 |
| bazhang | try ##windows for that vary | 22:40 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: Yuk, are you encrypted ? GPT partitioning requires a different tool than 'fdsik' show ' sudo parted -l ' . | 22:41 |
| allizom | bnrf: the boot entries with older kernels are hidden under Advanced options, I don't understand your previous answer "No, from the grub menu", care to clarify? | 22:42 |
| musclez | bashing-om: http://termbin.com/tfah | 22:42 |
| Bozza | does that mean it is a usb 1.1 device? usb 1-1: New USB device found, | 22:42 |
| bnrf | allizom: sorry I said no when you were at the right place for grub choice, I read it as install an earlier version, my mistake | 22:42 |
| Bozza | does that mean it is a usb 1.1 device? usb 1-1: New USB device found, | 22:42 |
| musclez | bahsing-om: http://termbin.com/s5l4 | 22:43 |
| Bozza | in dmesg | 22:43 |
| OerHeks | vary, check the bios for legacy usb support for your keyboard. check the manual how | 22:43 |
| Bozza | in dmesg does usb 1-1 mean a usb 1 device???? | 22:43 |
| bazhang | Bozza, clearly yes | 22:43 |
| vary | OerHeks: tried already | 22:44 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: A text file . We can look and see . ' cat /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride ' . | 22:44 |
| Bozza | bazhang: ??? | 22:45 |
| Bozza | are you just guessing? | 22:45 |
| Bozza | or do you know for sure? | 22:45 |
| musclez | bashing-om: http://termbin.com/ws7u | 22:45 |
| Bozza | bazhang: go ahead and type dmesg into terminal | 22:46 |
| Bozza | after connecting a usb device | 22:46 |
| Bozza | what does it say? | 22:46 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: I see nothing in the statoverride file to interfere with a kernel install . | 22:47 |
| bfig | hello, I need to upgrade wkhtmltopdf and my packages are borked for some reason | 22:49 |
| musclez | bashing-om: we had to disable soemthing with the dpkg in orger to get it to run without crashing, i wish i could give you more information but i need ot look back t the logs and im having trouble finding stuff | 22:49 |
| musclez | which kernel do you suggst? | 22:50 |
| hypernova | bashing om | 22:51 |
| hypernova | my ubuntu is working fine | 22:51 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: IF you are not encrypted, we can CHroot into the install from the liveUSB and check/install the -55 kernel ( my mirror does not have the -57 kernel ) . | 22:51 |
| musclez | i am encrypted | 22:52 |
| musclez | and i can still chroot into it thats what i am doing right now | 22:52 |
| Bashing-om | hypernova: Yeah, I "saw" ya ..And I did think ya got it under control . Install as dual boot and from the new install fix the original ? | 22:52 |
| hypernova | meh | 22:53 |
| hypernova | that harddrives fucked up | 22:53 |
| hypernova | it was like 10 years old though | 22:53 |
| hypernova | i think im just gonna toss it | 22:53 |
| owen1 | ubuntu 15.04. how to permanently switch caps lock to be esc from the terminal? is xmodmap still the way to do that? | 22:53 |
| Bozza | bazhang: it means bus 01 port 01 | 22:53 |
| Bozza | geez | 22:53 |
| Bozza | check your facts | 22:53 |
| hypernova | harddrives are soo cheap | 22:53 |
| hypernova | people give them to me all the time | 22:53 |
| hypernova | its only 160 gb | 22:53 |

| Bashing-om | musclez: Are you CHrooted into the install ? What is installed ? ' ls -al /boot ' | 22:58 |
| musclez | bashing-om: http://termbin.com/ksir | 22:59 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: No "initrd.img-3.13.0-55-generic" file . Lets try ' install linux-image-3.13.0-55-generic linux-headers-3.13.0-55-generic linux-headers-3.13.0-55 ' . See what happens . | 23:03 |

| allizom | bnrf: I tried booting into an older kernel and reinstalling the nvidia drivers. No luck, as i rebooted into it again the same issue arose | 23:11 |
| ruedii | Does anyone know how to resolve the dependency hell of dowgrading the LTS-Backports Xorg packages to the normal ones so I can install the updates from X-Edgers? | 23:12 |
| ruedii | I wish someone would make a nice script to handle it. | 23:12 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: Humm .. Yeah from some source in the statoverride file . Try commenting out the entries containing "amavis" with the text editor and try again . | 23:14 |

| ol_ | cannot get hp printer in Windows 7 to print from ubuntu. Have tried evrything using SAMBA. Got one test page to print a few days ago. Nothing since then. Should I try something other than SAMBA (CUPS)? | 23:34 |
| mtn | ol_, the printer does not have network capability? | 23:36 |
| ol_ | I can see it in ubuntu and got to print one test page. | 23:37 |
| musclez | bashing-om: how do i commen tit out? | 23:37 |
| mtn | ol_, the printer does not have network capability? | 23:38 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: Kust place the commnet '#" character at the start of the lines. Looking again at the file . I have no idea what the cause is ? Is "amavis" a valid username on that system ? | 23:39 |
| Bashing-om | kust/just* | 23:39 |
| musclez | amavis is antivirus sofwatre for a mail server | 23:40 |
| Bray90820 | ol_: your printer is installed on windows 7? | 23:40 |

| awesomess3 | so I looked at the Ubuntu MATE main page and it showed a picture of a VLC app playing the Avengers: Age of Ultron movie. isn't that illegal? | 23:43 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: No idea of what we will get into. for now we MUST get a krnel installed. To that end because I do not know any better, comment out all the lines with "amavis" in them . | 23:43 |
| mgolisch | awesomess3: why? | 23:43 |
| musclez | bashing-om: i nowget the message "syntax error: invlaid uid in stat overide file" | 23:43 |
| ikonia | musclez: is it not better to re-install | 23:44 |
| awesomess3 | mgolisch, because Age Of Ultron hasn't come out on DVD yet | 23:44 |
| ikonia | this has been going on for 48 hours almost | 23:44 |
| OerHeks | awesomess3, sure, it is a trailer. > trl | 23:44 |
| ikonia | backup your data an re-install | 23:44 |
| awesomess3 | OerHeks, oooohhh duh. I'm stupid. | 23:44 |
| ikonia | you'd be done in 20 minutes | 23:44 |
| mgolisch | awesomess3: trailer? | 23:44 |
| OerHeks | and see the time :-) | 23:44 |
| __Myst__ | Hey guys | 23:44 |
| nomic | hi __Myst__ | 23:44 |
| __Myst__ | I was wondering... how do I access an USB device? | 23:44 |
| __Myst__ | Hey nomic | 23:45 |
| __Myst__ | Like, through the command line. | 23:45 |
| nomic | it should access directly | 23:45 |
| OerHeks | awesomess3, but thanks for the notice, it could be an issue indeed. | 23:45 |
| nomic | erm .. | 23:45 |
| nomic | never done it | 23:45 |
| nomic | you mean "mount" the volume | 23:45 |
| __Myst__ | something like "cd /flashDrive/" | 23:45 |
| OerHeks | * have been | 23:45 |
| __Myst__ | ye, nomic | 23:45 |
| nomic | that means you have to mount the usb drive as a volume | 23:45 |
| nomic | and that should happen autmatically | 23:45 |
| nomic | the /dev point I think | 23:45 |
| __Myst__ | Go on | 23:45 |
| nomic | you insert the usb drive and it is automatically recogniseable on either /mnt or /dev | 23:46 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: Guess it is a field formatted file . And the '#" is unacceptable. Sorry, I do not know how to cope with the 'statoverride' file . | 23:46 |
| allizom | in case there is an issue with the video card drivers, shouldn't the login greeter be affected too? | 23:46 |
| nomic | aint used one for a while - hat I used to have was that I could insert the usb drive and the file manager (nautilus) would automatically appear (this is xubuntu) | 23:46 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: I am doping homework, see what I can learn . | 23:46 |
| __Myst__ | nomic: Yes; but how do I physicall access it? | 23:46 |
| Bashing-om | doing * | 23:46 |
| __Myst__ | ew nautilius. | 23:46 |
| ikonia | Bashing-om: this has been going on for 2 days and the same situation over 3 - 4 channels, I would very strongly advise him to backup his data and re-install as this is going-nowhere for 48 hours now | 23:46 |
| nomic | if it is mounted a s volume is referenced as part of filing system (tree) | 23:47 |
| musclez | bashing-om: im going to back up the file and delete the amavis lines | 23:47 |
| nomic | you dislike nautilus? | 23:47 |
| ikonia | he appears to not want to hear that and just keep repeating the same situation over and over again, so it maybe worth considering advising this | 23:47 |
| __Myst__ | Yeah, nomic. | 23:47 |
| __Myst__ | I mean, I don't dislike it. | 23:47 |
| nomic | mounting usb should be simple | 23:47 |
| __Myst__ | I just like doing things in the terminal more | 23:47 |
| nomic | ok | 23:48 |
| nomic | not sure then , if you do not have a gui | 23:48 |
| nomic | lsub? | 23:48 |
| nomic | find the mounted usb devices, reference, mount | 23:48 |
| nomic | nautilus must do that autmatically | 23:48 |
| nomic | you are limiting yourself somewhat, in many cases, by using only the command line | 23:49 |
| musclez | bashing-om: any used that is not root is doe snot accept... amavis was just the first instance | 23:49 |
| ikonia | musclez: have you considered backup/reinstall/restore your data | 23:49 |
| nomic | you will find that there is a way to reference usb devices which are plugged into your pc | 23:49 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: Maybe we can just delete the file ? see: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/can-not-install-new-software-on-my-system-4175422314/ . // Still look'n . | 23:49 |
| ikonia | musclez: you seem to be struggling with the basics, I think you'll find it much quicker and eaier to backup/restore after install | 23:49 |
| Bray90820 | ol_: I sent you s pm | 23:50 |
| Bray90820 | A pm | 23:50 |
| nomic | tbh - from what I remember - xubuntu (here), automatically mounts and opens a file explorer, when you plug in a usb drive | 23:50 |
| nomic | these are not "issues" | 23:51 |
| Bashing-om | musclez: ^^ ikonia's advise above, And the proper way to remove entries in the file ' sudo dpkg-statoverride --remove <the_path> ' . | 23:55 |
| ruedii | It looks like I found how to deal with that dependency hell of the lts backports X11 setup. Hopefully it turns out OK. After that I will need to fix my i386 libs then I'll be all set. | 23:55 |
| musclez | bashing-om: i have that used ignored | 23:55 |
| ikonia | musclez: you've been at this for 48 hours, and you're not really moving forward | 23:55 |
| ikonia | have you looked at data backup, re-install, restore | 23:56 |
| ikonia | you'll be done in 20 minutes + backup/restore time | 23:56 |
