ubottuantonio_: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades01:32

Koyaanishow hyper01:35
antonio_anyone?01:36
TJ-antonio_: see "man sources.list"01:36
Bashing-omantonio_: That file is located " /etc/apt/sources.list ". Be aware it is a long hard roard to go from 12.10 to a current release . May have many pitfalls along the way .01:37
antonio_bashing-om: Whats more reliable to keep all of my current programs / configs?  Doing a fresh install with 14.10? or upgrading?01:39
nszcetaantonio_ upgrade01:40
Bashing-omantonio_: You have backups. I would highly recommned a clean fresh install of 14.04 .01:40
antonio_bashing-om: and then copying over the /home folder after I cresh install?01:40
Bashing-omantonio_: No, I would only copy back to the new install such things as still required .01:42

antonio_essential files?01:42
Bashing-omantonio_: All essential files will be in the new install . All I would copy back is the personal stuff I use on a regular basis. A lot of changes between the DE of 12.10 and that of 14.04 .01:44
antonio_bashing-om: what if I want to keep my current programs / configs?01:44
Bashing-omantonio_: Like 3rd party stuff ?01:45

antonio_huh?01:45
scarin the liveCD now it says /dev/sda5 is not a valid LUKS device01:46
DanShark/wc/01:46
Bashing-omMuch safer to (RE-)install fresh . IF you have a lot, 'dpkg --get-selections >> dpkg --set-selections >> sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade ' may be of interest .01:47
edgardowebhi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ia9YSGiYh5w&feature=share01:48

antonio_bashing-om: where does it save that file of installed softs?01:58
Bashing-omantonio_: Wherever you direct . For instance ' dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages ' would save the file to your desktop as file name "my-packages" .02:00

nurfee!uefi | MiniFridge take a looksie03:16
ubottuMiniFridge take a looksie: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI03:16
MiniFridgeWell, I built it.03:16
MiniFridgeI installed a retail version of Windows 8.1 on it03:16
schlerpyeah so by the sounds of it you got two options, (1 if you want to dual boot with win8)03:17
schlerpeither use the bios fallback instead of uefi or get ubuntu workign over uefi (read the ubottu link)03:18
MiniFridgeIs there a way to find out if I installed Windows 8.1 via UEFI or legacy?03:19
MiniFridgeI forgot what I did, it was over a year ago.03:19
wolflarsonwhat is your BIOS set at currently ?03:19
wolflarsonmore than likley you never changed it back to UEFI if installed while in legacy03:20
schlerpif you bought the parts recently it would be uefi im fairly sure anyone else got a more solid idea of that?03:20
MiniFridgeWell, it's at UEFI. I never knew I could go to BIOS on it. For some reason, I thought you were talking about the boot mode.03:21
Bashing-omMiniFridge: ' [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS ' .03:21

Mista_HezakiahHey. Can anyone help me fix my slow wifi? I used an old version of Mint and averaged 1mb/s. On Ubuntu 14.04 it averages 160kb/s.04:04
lotuspsychjeMista_Hezakiah: wifi chipset please?04:05
Mista_HezakiahIf I try to browse the web while downloading the connection resets and drops to like 10kb/s04:05
Mista_HezakiahRTL8185, I think. Driver is 818x_pci04:05
darkelfjuggaloI'm having a strange issue... Programs freezings without warning repeatedly just for opening. and closing without warning or error notice04:05
lotuspsychje!realtek | Mista_Hezakiah04:06
ubottuMista_Hezakiah: some help for recent Realtek chipsets can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/RealtekRTL8187b04:06
El-HrairahIs there an up-to-date reference on how to slipstream updated packages into a ubuntu release iso? That is to say instead of installing from a vanilla iso, then downloading 500mb of updates.04:06
lotuspsychjeMista_Hezakiah: you might wanna look at realteks website for latest linux drivers/firmwares also04:06
Mista_HezakiahThanks. Surprised this didn't show up in google.04:06
lotuspsychjeMista_Hezakiah: also, did you install ubuntu with internet cable enabled+updates+3rd party?04:07
Mista_HezakiahI looked but I have to build from source and change driver myself. The source comes with little instruction04:07
Mista_HezakiahYes lotus04:07
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: you want to build an own ubuntu iso?04:08
El-Hrairahlotuspsychje: Possibly, but I would prefer to just slipstream updated packages and have it install those. That probably does require me building a custom image. Any up-to-date instructions? I found some for 9.04, but I have a feeling things have changed since then.04:10
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: can you explain a bit what purpose do you have with it?04:10
Mista_Hezakiahlotuspsychje This information looks like it's for a much older version of ubuntu. And do you know it will work with my card also? I'd rather have  sort-of working wifi than none04:11
El-Hrairahlotuspsychje: Mostly not having to redownload 500mb of packages every time I install a system.04:11
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: the problem with that is, packages keep updating fast so even with this method you will always have to update04:11
El-Hrairahlotuspsychje: True, but I can always keep my iso somewhat up-to-date.04:12
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: and its very reccomended to install ubuntu with internet and updates enabled at the beginning of install04:12
El-Hrairahlotuspsychje: I don't always have internet access for that sort of thing.04:13
El-Hrairahlotuspsychje: And I don't always have a fast connection.04:13
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: how about you use aptoncd and make a favorite list of your packages to backup04:13
El-Hrairahlotuspsychje: Let me look into that one.04:13
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: then you can push them offline over your new install04:13
lotuspsychje!info aptoncd | El-Hrairah04:14
ubottuEl-Hrairah: aptoncd (source: aptoncd): Installation disc creator for packages downloaded via APT. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1.98+bzr117-1.4 (vivid), package size 213 kB, installed size 1561 kB04:14
lotuspsychjeMista_Hezakiah: the only way is to find a newer firmware/driver, try the realteks website mate04:14
lotuspsychjeMista_Hezakiah: you might wanna look at syslog and dmesg errors too about wifi04:14
El-Hrairahlotuspsychje: That looks like it would probably work for me.04:15
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: it might save you alot work perhaps04:15
Mista_HezakiahOkay, thanks04:15
El-Hrairahlotuspsychje: Thanks for pointing me in that direction.04:15
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: after you restored your fav packages, and update from there, it will be smaller update right04:16
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: another possibility is to use latest ubuntu daily images04:16
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: but that requiers to download a lot of .iso's04:17
=== davi is now known as Guest88730

lotuspsychjebazhang: good morning mate04:18
El-Hrairahlotuspsychje: That would be more work than I wanna do. I just want to basically take the downloaded debs that come in with each update and slipstream them/use them for future offline updating04:19
AssociateXI'm trying to get my laptop mic to work on google hangouts.04:19
lotuspsychje!sound | AssociateX04:19
ubottuAssociateX: 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 !mp3.04:19
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: ok, another possible layout is using apt-get to download your packages to backup04:19
lotuspsychjeEl-Hrairah: apt-get download yourpackagename04:20

ubottujak2000: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/what-is-debian.html - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!04:21

AssociateXkostkon, I have usb headphones also.04:22

AssociateXkostkon, I think unity04:25
AssociateXhow do I check for sure?04:25
lotuspsychjeAssociateX: lsb_release -a04:25
kostkonAssociateX, nevertheless, you could start a hangouts session, then open pavucontrol, click on Recording and see what device is being used for the hangouts input stream and change and change it if needed04:26
jak2000lotuspsychje ok, how do it in ubuntu?04:26

El-HrairahThis is another odd question, but when I connect a USB-Serial adapter, I get a /dev/ttyS0 file with a group ownership of "dialout".

I've looked in the terminal keyboard shortcuts and the system shortcuts, but i can't find anything that will let me do that.

Geo2b2Hey again guys. I was wondering if anyone can tell me what i am doing wrong with the command 'wget'. I am trying to download a large file from mega, but it's not working.Here is what i typed 'wget -O filename.mkv *link to mega download*. After that it just downloads the file in less than 10 seconds and says its finished, which is impossible since the file is over 4gb. I checked my downloads and that file doesn't work. Anyone know what i'm doing wrong?06:22
fullstackGeo2b2, I think mega uses a bunch of javascript and the link might be bogus06:22
trijntjeKartagis: is there a way to do that from a live system? I can login since I lost my user password with encrypted home06:23
trijntje*cant06:23
Geo2b2fullstack, the link i have used before on windows, and it worked fine06:23
Kartagistrijntje: edit /etc/passwd then06:23
fullstackGeo2b2,  then try putting single quotes around the link06:23
fullstackGeo2b2,  wget 'http://mega.com/aaklsdfjaflskd&!@#&*(!@&#(*!@&&7!&!&!&!!&'06:24
fullstackGeo2b2, the & are probably screwing things up06:24
trijntjeKartagis: that wont work, since that wont update the encryption password06:24
KartagisI've got this 3TB USB HDD, for which syslog says very big device and gparted says unallocated. is there any way I can make it work?06:25
Geo2b2fullstack, That's what i have been doing, because originally it wouldn't work and give me an error, so the single quote is what i tried after, it didn't give me an error, it just downloaded straight away and didn't work06:25
fullstackGeo2b2, check the URL in a incognito browser and see if it downloads it06:25
Kartagistrijntje: I *think* you can use mkpasswd and use that to edit /etc/passwd-06:25
cuqahello, is http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/linux-image-3.13.0-55-generic a stable kernel?06:26
Geo2b2fullstack, you mean download through wget while the browser is in incognito? Or through the browser06:27
Geo2b2- directly06:27
nurfeecuqa: Should be, why?06:27
cuqajust curious06:27
fullstackGeo2b2,  no.. your URL could be bad. Try testing the URL by pasting it into a browser and seeing if it actually is a good link06:27
cuqabecause the system freezes often apparently06:27
cuqabut no reason can be seen for the freezes06:28
nurfeekernel is an awfully big target06:28
Geo2b2fullstack, I could do that, but it probably wont let me download, because if you go pat 2gbs (i think), they wont let you download unless you have a firefox mega add on. Which i think is not open source.06:28
trijntjeKartagis: AFAIK only the graphical user config tool updates the encryption keys when you change passwords. I think ill just do a reinstall, thats probably faster06:28
Kartagisprobably06:29
fullstackGeo2b2, yeah I think the URL isn't a real direct link. You could try hittin gup google for "how to direct link  from mega"06:29
fullstackGeo2b2, If I remember I think MEGA does encryption INSIDE the browser and requires all sorts of Javascript special stuff06:29
Geo2b2fullstack, Oh, so all mega links are like that and can't be used through wget?06:30
fullstackGeo2b2, and if I remember Mega never serves the actual file just the encrypted version.. which is decrypted in the browser. But I haven't used it in a while06:30
fullstackGeo2b2, you might be able to find some kind of Node.js module that can do something like wget for mega06:31

Geo2b2fullstack, I'm a noob and only started using linux this week, lol. Sorry, but what do you mean by node.js module?06:31
fullstackGeo2b2, if you know node.js you could use this module https://www.npmjs.com/package/mega to write a program to get the file06:32
fullstackGeo2b2, but you should juse download the file in a browser if you don't..  :)06:33
antonio_im about to reinstall ubuntu....how can I backup my firefox?06:33

Geo2b2fullstack, I don't know node.js unfortunately, lol. I would download through browser, but im pretty sure mega prompts you if it's a download over 2gb and says you need an add on to be able to download it. The add on isn't open source. Isn't that a bad thing?06:34

Harishello all06:41
Harisis ubuntu-14.10-server-amd64.iso bootable ? I'v added it as cd/dvd in vmware, to be connected on power on, but when I power on the VM, I don't get the menu off of this bootable ISO. I get the standard grub menu for boot off of disk06:42
KartagisObrienDave: yea, it was working before I switched a few other distros and came back to my beloved ubuntu, which I have been using since hardy06:42
Harisalready asked this in #vmware. no constructive response yet06:42
ObrienDaveKartagis, have you tried it under windows? it's really strange it reports unallocated06:43
minihi06:43
Kartagisno, not yet06:44
HarisI need to recover root password on this VM, to go about my business. I can't do that without booting successfully off of the ISO image06:44
trijntjeKartagis: I'd guess it got corrupted somehow, unless you can open it on windows or another operating system06:44
KartagisI haven't got access to a windows atm06:44
trijntjeKartagis: it could be gpt, I'm not sure if gparted can read that06:45
Kartagistrijntje: how do I check whether it's GPT?06:45
ObrienDaveyea, 3TB requires GPT. gparted should be able to read it06:45
Kartagishttp://paste.debian.net/265230/ <--- does this help? fdisk -l output06:46
ObrienDavei would recommend running chkdsk in windows before you lose anything on the drive06:46
ObrienDaveit looks valid. why gparted says unallocated is beyond me06:48

kostkonpehlert, there should be some calls in tk that will help the DE make the connectiob between the two, window and icon, like setting a window title, app name if possible, etc.10:46

tete_Johnny_Linux, but you dont work in a motel, dont you? :P10:51
kostkonpehlert, not match per se, just make sure you've set a window title. Have you set the icon in tk or in your desktop file?10:51
kostkonpehlert, actually the icon it's irrelevant. In reality, your DE does not make the connection between the desktop file and the window.10:53

Radon_3 demhlyr: which one is the most secure, cause I don't need possible introsions, and then she thinking that I did something to her system...13:36
Radon_3*introsions = intrusion13:36
hateballRadon_3: SSH13:36
Radon_3oh, btw both systems are running ubuntu13:36
demhlyrif the problem is trust issues with her, i'd say teamviewer. she will have a button to abort it easily13:37
demhlyrjust saying...13:37
Radon_3hateball : thanks, so I will ask her to make me an ssh account. thanks13:37
hateballRadon_3: If you set up SSH with keybased auth and disable password auth then only the one with the key (you) will be able to log in13:37
Radon_3oh... and can she see what I am doing?13:37
Radon_3by using teamviewer i mean?13:37
demhlyryes13:37

Superpelican_because the latest GParted live cd has just wiped it16:01
Superpelican_and the CD apparently is based on Debian 4.0!!16:01
Superpelican_well not an actual CD16:02

N_ickpbx: basically, what i need to display with cat is a webradio playlist (ascii) which is continuously refreshed. so cat's output is continuous. Cat's output is currently in advance over the audio i'm broadcasting so i need to add some delay to run in sync.16:12
N_icksorry i don't really know how to explain in english.. :/16:13

AppAraathello, I'm installing the Ubuntu 14.04 netinstall, and there seems to be an issue with "live-installer" install component - http://imgur.com/a/H9wlr16:20
AppAraatthe first and second pic are meant to go the other way around16:20
abs25hello16:21
abs25First time installing linux, which version should I go for?, 14.04.2 or 15.04?16:21
N_ick@ Superpelican_ yep, something like that :  storing cat's output in a variable, sleep 3s, cat variable? then i need to purge the variable periodically... right?16:21
eraggoi would like to recommend 15.04 but i am using 14.something. Works like a charm16:22
abs25eraggo, I wont have any issue installing 15.04 even though I am first time installing linux?16:23
eraggoabs25: probably not16:23
abs25because on webpage it says recommened for most users at 14.04 version16:23
tewardabs25: the trade off is cutting-edge vs. stability - 14.04 is probably more stable.  15.04 has newer software.16:24
mtnabs25, 14.04 is a long term support, so will be supported for much longer16:24
eraggoabs25: depends on your system; if you have high-end graphics card that will come issue.16:24
abs25no I have 3 year old low level gpu16:24
eraggoabs25: go for 14.0416:24
abs25mtn, what does that mean they wont update 15.04 but they will 14.0416:25
abs25ok16:25
mtnabs25, support, not just updating. after a few months, 15 will no longer get any updates16:25
mtnor support16:25
abs25why the numbers go down?16:25
abs25why is 14 better than 15?16:25
abs25makes no sense16:25
eraggoabs25: ubuntu uses format yy.mm; yyi s year and mm is month16:26
heywoodhi all. i made an alias to MD5 as follows: md5sum(){ /sbin/md5 $@ | awk '{print $4}' ;} to extract just the checksum. this fails if the filename has spaces. how can i modify this to handle that case?16:26
tewardabs25: 14.04 is an LTS (5 years of support).  15.04 is an interim release with a much shorter support period.16:26
abs25oh so they keep developing bit unstable stuff for advanced users, but keep working on one older version with support for regular users,?16:27
eraggoabs25: yes16:27

cemghello guys , i give chmod this file , then when i run it , it doesnt work , it just only becomes root, https://paste.kde.org/p5kfzjmmb16:29
cemgwhats the problem here ?16:29
AppAraatOerHeks: I intent to use the CLI though, but I guess in that case I'll have to modify /etc/apt/sources.lst ?16:29
AppAraateraggo: thanks for the heads-up. This is one of the reasons I intend to keep good backups.16:30

OerHeksAppAraat, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Upgrades16:32
AppAraatthanks16:32
eraggocemg: with sudo su you do login as root. Remove that line and replace it with sudo's when needed.16:33
cemgbut wont it ask me for passwords ?16:33
alebinit should ask for your user pass16:34
cemgor to agree that installations16:34
cemgi dont want it16:34
eraggocemg: script that short it should ask it once16:34
alebincan ubuntu checksum the mbr some how?16:35
cemgisnt there any other way ?16:36
alebincemg: that's kinda how ubuntu is designed16:36
cemgwhen it becomes , then i type CTRL+D , after that it starts download everything without asking16:37
cemgwhen it becomes root ..16:37
rypervenchecemg: You could run it as the root user.16:38
rypervenchecemg: When I need to run a script that needs root permissions, I don't bother with adding "sudo" to each line and hoping that it doesn't take too long to run, thus requiring me to type my password again. I run it as the root user.16:39
tewardrypervenche: so just run the script itself with sudo?16:40
cemgsudo su16:40
cemgthen execute ?16:40
tewardoop nevermind16:40
* teward just showed up late xD16:40
rypervenchecemg: That won't always be the best way to do things, but it depends on what you need. Actually, reading the script, I wouldn't run it as root.16:40
OerHekscemg, not sudo su, use ' sudo -i '16:40
cemghmm okey16:41
rypervenchecemg: It is creating a python virtual environment. You'll want to do that as a normal user.16:41
OerHeksor sudo < script>16:41
cemgsudo ./installer.sh ?16:41
rypervenchecemg: Lines 5 to 24 need root privileges. I would just add sudo in front of each line there.16:42
cemgi did16:42
rypervenchecemg: Then run the script as your user, no need for sudo.16:42
cemgsudo ./installer.sh16:42
cemghmm okey16:42
rypervenchecemg: Just run ./installer.sh16:42
smallfoot-Anyone having problems with mouse acceleration? It seems its disabled for me.16:42
cemgokey i will add sudo in front of everyline16:43
OerHekscemg, running that script as root does the same.16:44
cemgsudo su  , then just ./installer.sh ?16:44
Superpelican_mtn: So it still isn't finished partitioning...16:45
Superpelican_It think it has stalled again16:45
rypervenchecemg: No no. You want to run it as your normal user.16:45

mtnSuperpelican_, using gparted from the live disk?16:45
cemgyeah16:45

Superpelican_and now I am trying to install Debian again16:46
cemgwhy ? :D16:46
mtnSuperpelican_, why not? it has been suggested to you here and in the link you mentioned. just do it!16:46
rypervenchecemg: Lines 46 and 49 need sudo as well16:46
smallfoot-Anyone having problems with mouse acceleration? It seems its disabled for me.16:46
Superpelican_But how should I partition it?16:46

cemgi think the best way is adding sudo everyline16:47
Superpelican_Is about 25/30 minutes normal for a 320 GB HDD in a weak computer?16:47
mtnSuperpelican_, http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/35676/how-to-choose-a-partition-scheme-for-your-linux-pc/16:47
Picicemg: overusing sudo can lead to system issues, please do not use it more than necessary.16:47
cemgahh , then i dont know what to do :(16:47
Superpelican_Yes, but how will I get Debian to use an existing partition scheme?16:47
rypervenchecemg: You do NOT want to add sudo to every line.16:48

Hobbet1i have a basic question i sure is it better to use the intel cpu proprietary driver or not?19:07
grinchierHobbet1: depends, do you notice any differences?19:07
noncomcinseI shouldn't have to reboot to get alsa to work but I might as well try it.19:08
grinchierHobbet1: for example i use the proprietary nvidia drivers on the 3.13 kernel because otherwise,  i freeze when resuming suspend19:09
=== noncomcinse_ is now known as noncomcinse
Hobbet1no so is there a difference to use one or the other19:09
grinchierbut another fix,  would be to keep the open source drivers and update the kernel19:09
grinchierHobbet1: then just stick with the open source driver19:09
noncomcinseNope. No dice.19:10
grinchierHobbet1: many claim open source drivers are more secure,   they are definitely way less bloated19:10

MACscrhow can i change the resolution for console access when accessing my ubuntu server through IP KVM? I have no gui installed on my servers, so its strictly console access19:34
Tai15Hey guys, I'm sorry, but I'm just in over my head and really need help. I had a problem with my RAID array that's part of an LV, and now, after rebuilding me, I can't mount the LV because it's telling me it doesn't have a valid partition table, even though the RAID array is active and seems fine19:34
MACscrits through ipmi virtual console access, so no video card is really involved.19:35
Jordan_UTai15: Do you really mean a RAID array that is part of an LV, meaning that you have a RAID array whose memebers are logical volumes?19:37
Tai15Jordan_U, I have a RAID 10 array that's mounted an LV19:37
Tai15as an LV*19:38
Jordan_UTai15: You're not using terminolgy in an understandable way. I assume, since this is the most reasonable configuration, that you have multiple drives that each have partition tables. On each of those drives is a partition that is a RAID member, forming your RAID array, and on top of that RAID array you have an LVM physcial volume wich contains within it at least one LVM logical volume. Is that correct?19:40
Tai15Jordan_U, I'm sorry if I'm not being clear, but yes, that is exactly how my server is configured.19:40

Tai15Jordan_U, according to fdisk -l, each of the harddrives has a single partition with "Linux raid autodetect on it", but my Logical Volume manager does not have a valid partition on it anymore, and I'm not sure what caused that19:47
newkehi. im thinking of buying a thinkpad. it has belgian keyboard layout, but im comfortable with US. Will keys be mapped correctly?19:47

Jordan_UTai15: By "logical volume manager does not have a valid partition on it" do you mean that there is no Logical Volume?19:48

Jordan_UTai15: A logical volume isn't supposed to have a partition table. What is your end goal?19:53
bennypr0fanehi, I have a problem with my wlan driver. It doesn't seem to laod (properly at startup). It's the broadcom propietary wl driver. jockey-gtk shows it as being in use, yet when I start the system, wlan doesn't work. as soon as I run sudo modprobe wl in the terminal, it springs to life19:54
Tai15Jordan_U, before I mounted my RAID by mounting logical volume group. Now it's telling me that it can't do that because there isn't a valid partition table.19:55

Jordan_UTai15: How did you rebuild the array?20:13
Tai15mdadm --assemble --force /dev/md127 /dev/sd[b-h]120:14
Jordan_UTai15: The description for --force states "Assemble the array even if the metadata on some devices appears to be out-of-date. If mdadm cannot find enough working devices to start the array, but can find some devices that are recorded as having failed, then it will mark those devices as working so that the array can be started. An array which requires --force to be started may contain data corruption. Use it carefully."20:18
Jordan_UTai15: Why did you decide to use --force?20:19
Tai15uh, when I tried to --assemble --scan, it told me there was only one drive (!?) even though I could clearly see the other ones20:19
Jordan_UTai15: And what lead you to believe that --force was specifically the option you should use?20:21

Geo2b2TJ-, however if i actually go to the search engine website and search, it doesn't happen for some reason20:46
Geo2b2TJ-, Then i'm probably wrong about google. Is it okay to remove or comment out the canonical part? I mean, could it possibly do harm?20:47
xanguaGeo2b2: and what harm is it doing¿20:48
TJ-Geo2b2: I remember a long time ago I figured out how to override the searchplugins in the user home directory, to avoid making a change to the system packages. If you change the system packages upgrades may well fail20:48

bghfrenicekiwi: I did not say that, you are biased live with it.20:51
Geo2b2TJ-, Oh, so it's not a good idea for me to remove it? I'm not really sure how to override searchplugins, and since i'm a noob i probably shouldn't try, in case i mess up. Does the canonical thing in general do anything bad, as in, is it possible spyware, adware, etc?20:51

TJ-Geo2b2: If you want to lose those tracker parameters, then instead of changing the files make a copy under a slightly different name in the same directory (you'll need to use sudo/gksudo for elevated privileges) and then edit the appropriate text inside the XML file, including giving the provider a slightly different title/name, e.g. instead of DuckDuckGo MyDuckDuckGo then when you start Firefox you'll see MyDuckDuckGo as a search provider you can use as your defa20:54

TJ-poorUser: Your symptoms sound very much as if you've got a console framebuffer driver loaded (such as VESA) as well as the Nvidia proprietary driver. In that case they will 'fight' for GPU memory and write into each other's buffers, causing corruption.

poorUserit looks like a  very bad news21:12
Jordan_UMiniFridge: Which option did you use to boot the USB drive, or did you try both?21:12
grinchierand nouveau21:12
poorUserok grinchier i'll try that too21:12
MiniFridgeI only tried USB recently21:12
MiniFridgeI can try UEFI, if you want me to.21:12
poorUsernouveau? are you sure?21:12
grinchierwell try kernel first21:13
grinchieri think you can disable acpi21:13
poorUserk i'll try them all21:13
OerHeksMiniFridge, secure boot disables, and fastboot disabled in windows?21:13
TJ-poorUser: I'd guess what has happened is the PC has had several Ethernet ports with different MAC addresses, and they've each reserved the next free name for themselves. If those interfaces no longer exist it is safe for you to delete the lines referencing them from the file I pointed yo to21:13
grinchieracpi=off21:13
grinchierhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Common_Kernel_Options21:13
poorUseralso i've the famous acpi probe fail21:13
TJ-grinchier: That is never a good idea nowadays; all PCs rely on ACPI extensively21:14
poorUseri'll try to disable acpit oo21:14
Jordan_UMiniFridge: Yes, though actually installing Ubuntu via UEFI could be a problem if you really have Windows installed for BIOS. Why do you have Windows 8 installed on a UEFI based machine, but not using UEFI?21:14
grinchierTJ-: well if machine keeps locking up,  what could it hurt?21:14
MiniFridgeOerHeks, fastboot is enabled. Secureboot state says, "Unsupported"21:14
TJ-poorUser: You might find adding to the kernel command line "acpi_os_name=linux" *might* help, though there is no guarantee21:14
grinchierwhole bunch of boot options to try21:14
TJ-grinchier: Hurt even more, it'll leave key parts of the PC incorrectly configured.21:15
OerHeksMiniFridge, ah, disable fast boot, that prevents booting from usb21:15
MiniFridgeJordan_U, I honestly don't know why I installed it that way.21:15
jayjoMy ubuntu 14.04 server is really starting to drag, what are my go-to diagnostics to see where this is originating?21:15

poorUseri'll try all options and repot which one works ^^21:15

Eduard_Munteanujayjo, top and iotop?21:15
TJ-grinchier: Yeah.. like not enabling fans, not configuring chipsets correctly, not reacting to platform events21:15
Jordan_UMiniFridge: OK. Try booting the Ubuntu USB via UEFI but don't install yet even if it boot successfully.21:15
MiniFridgeOerHeks, okay. Thanks.21:16

MiniFridgeUEFI worked, USB did not.21:24
MiniFridge:D21:24
OerHeksBashing-om, maybe fxmulder encountered the .Xauthority bug?21:24
MiniFridgeI could also access all my files from Windows, which was a pleasant surprise.21:24
MiniFridgeBut, why would UEFI be working if Windows boots via legacy?21:25
antonio_The error I'm getting is "found unknown packages; this might mean the available database21:25
antonio_is outdated, and needs to be updated through a frontend method"21:25
Bashing-omOerHeks: fxmulder ^^ that too is a possibility . Slipped my mind too to check this is not a PPA installed driver !21:26
nicekiwiwould I need to use fail2ban on ssh if im also using UFW limit on ssh port?21:26
Jordan_UMiniFridge: Your boot firmware probably leaves the hardware in a slightly different state between UEFI and BIOS boot. It's likely that linux *should* be able to ge the hardware into a consistent state either way, but currently only works with the state given to it when booted via UEFI.21:26
fxmulder.Xauthority bug?21:27
MiniFridgehm. Interesting.21:27
OerHeksfxmulder, change of ownership failure after an update. http://askubuntu.com/questions/436925/ownership-of-xauthority-transferred-to-root21:28
MiniFridgeA bit confusing, but I think I sort of get what you mean.21:28
vandalicioushi21:28
OerHeksfxmulder, login with cntrl alt F2 , ls -al # and see the ownership of .Xauthority21:28
Bashing-omfxmulder: A quick check ' ls -al .Xauthority ; ls -al .ICEauthority ' See that "you" have owenership and grouped .21:29
antonio_I've got a list of all of my installed software from my 12.10 installation I made yesterday via dkpg.  Now I need to reinstall them.  Its not working though.  Here is a list of the files http://pastebin.com/AbNRRts321:29
MiniFridgeNow, if I can access all my files on Windows, is it possible for there to be a multi-platform malware hidden on Windows and then be able to get into the Live USB session?21:29
fxmulderthat didn't seem to do it, its owned by me, I moved it to a different file and tried to login, it was recreated but I am still at the login screen21:29
antonio_Is there any easy way to do this? bashing-om: aren't you the one that shared the link with me about using dpkg to compile a list of apps and then reinstall them later?21:29
Jordan_UMiniFridge: Only if you explicitly ran executables from your Windows installation.21:30
OerHeksantonio_, due to version numbers i think you need to select them manually? get-selections is distro dependend.21:30
Bashing-omantonio_: Yes that was me for 'get-selections' .21:30
antonio_bashing-om: ok, I thought so...21:30
MiniFridgeah, okay. But, if there was an autorun file, wouldn't that automatically run in the Linux environment?21:30
antonio_oerheks: how would I do that?21:30
OerHeksantonio_, install synaptic, detailed softwarecenter. but i think lots of those errors are from programs you already have, too.21:32
MikeRLHello. I'm having an issue with my desktop. Seems Compiz won't load and the terminal throws an error related to the OpenGL plugin. I noticed this after I updated the machine today. I think I can find a workaround if someone tells me if there's some way to get a history of all the packages updated recently.21:32
MikeRLKind of like how Synaptic does it, but with apt.21:32
elfeckhey I deleted my /var/log/kern.log and now my kernel does not log anymore. How can I fix this?21:32
MikeRLBare with me as I'm typing from my Nexus 6.21:32
Jordan_UMiniFridge: /var/log/dpkg.log21:33
Bashing-omfxmulder: Vack to a driver. Any PPA involeved here before (RE-)installing a driver ' tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ' ?21:33
antonio_oerheks: how would those errors be from programs I already have?  This is a fresh install of 14.0421:33
MiniFridgeJordan_U, what's that?21:33
Jordan_UMiniFridge: A log of dpkg operations.21:33
MikeRLOh thanks.21:33
MikeRLThat should help.21:33
OerHeksantonio_, you get version-errors, the package name contains version numbers, so you might already have the latest version. your version is from an old lts.21:34
Jordan_UMiniFridge: Sorry, that message was meant for MikeRL rather than you.21:34
MikeRLThat way I can determine what caused the issue and go from there. I can downgrade it and report the issue afterwards.21:34
MiniFridgeJordan_U, ah, okay. :P21:34
MiniFridgeNo problem.21:34
OerHeksantonio_, so good luck finding manually the installed/missing package versions.21:34
MikeRLAnyhow, I'll check that, and once I determine the package, I'll be back.21:34
MiniFridgeSo, nothing I do is stored on my live USB if persistence is not enabled, correct?21:35

aikidoukeok, so im back working in a chroot on a uefi system and i cant seem to install grub on the boot partition, can anyone help?21:36
fxmulderI figured it out, I still had a custom kernel in grub from last month when I needed to build custom kernels for eudyptula, standard kernel works fine21:36
MiniFridgeWhenever I use my Live USB then, should I install all updates from the repos? Because, if I don't, doesn't that leave me open to vulnerabilities?21:37
MonkeyDustMiniFridge  it's useless to update a live session... when you stop the session, everythings's gone21:38
Jordan_Uaikidouke: What grub-install command are you trying to run? What do you mean by "install grub on the boot partition"?21:38
aikidoukemore info, boot part is fat32 error " warning file system fat doesnt support embedding21:38
aikidoukegrub-install /dev/sda221:38
MiniFridgeMonkeyDust, okay, so what about software vulnerabilities? Should I make a live USB with persistence, then?21:38
aikidoukeim trying to fix a broken uefi system21:38
aikidoukesays the boot partition is /dev/sda221:38
Jordan_Uaikidouke: grub's boot sector should always be installed to the MBR, e.g. to /dev/sda, not to a partition like /dev/sda1. But even beyond that, UEFI doesn't have boot sectors and so you shouldn't be providing a device argument at all if you're trying to install grub such that it can be booted via UEFI.21:39
MonkeyDustMiniFridge  what do you want to achieve? a 100% safe system?21:39
aikidoukeok, so should the command just be grub-install /dev/sda ?21:40
Bashing-omfxmulder: Great, As I live and learn too .21:40
aikidoukewait, ok, so no device argument ok..21:40
=== rasalghul is now known as _rasalghul_
Jordan_Uaikidouke: If you're trying to install grub such that it can be booted via UEFI then it should be "sudo grub-install --target=x86_64-efi" and you need to ensure that your EFI System Partition is mounted to /boot/efi/.21:41
MiniFridgeMonkeyDust, well, I want to be able to handle sensitive documents on the live USB. I guess I could just unplug my ethernet cable from my PC and do work, then get off, then I don't need to worry about vulnerabilities.21:41
mesterhi21:41
aikidoukegotcha...ty trying21:42
fxmulderBashing-om: thanks for the help, now that I know what the issue is I'm curious to find out how I'd correct the situation with a custom kernel21:42
MonkeyDustMiniFridge  yes, you can handle them in a live session, but save them on your hard disk, or external usb disk21:42
MonkeyDustMiniFridge  or in the cloud21:42

mesterHiiiii21:43

ubottumester: 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)21:43
MiniFridgeMonkeyDust, so the live session will also not save system files to any of my additional disks, right?21:44
Bashing-omfxmulder: I would imagine if one were to install the driver booted with the custom kernel, the driver would build against that kernel .21:46

MiniFridgeI appreciate it.21:47
Notchum21:47
Notchwhat do you do here21:47
Jordan_UMiniFridge: I think that the Ubuntu LiveCD/USB automatically mounts swap partitions that it finds by default, so if you have an existing GNU/Linux installation with a swap partition that might be something to think about.21:47
nehzahNotch: This is ubuntu support the chanel is described at the top of your page.21:47

MiniFridgeJordan_U, so it would be utilizing those, then?21:47
MonkeyDustNotch  type /topic21:48
MiniFridgeThose swap files?21:48
Jordan_UMiniFridge: You can always run "swapoff -a" before opening any files to be sure that their contents are never swapped to disk while being read. Note that this is really the height of paranoia :)21:48
mesterhi, i install reaver and wash with libpcap0.8, but Ubuntu says that this packet (libpcap0.8) has broke and i can't update the system because these is a old packet, but wash don't work without libpcap0.821:48

Jordan_UMiniFridge: Say that you open a text file with a credit card number in it, then do something else that causes you to run out of RAM. The kernel might take your text editor's memory and save it to swap. Someone mallicious specifically targetting you (like the CIA) might grep through your swap file looking for anything that looks like a credit card number, and they would find it. Again though, that's a lot of paranoia, and ...21:52

tankerkiller125Unfortantly because of the IP protocal thats kinda impossible. The only viable way to test your machine would to be grab another and use it to test your machine. The reason behind this is because your computer knows its IP and will simply skip the router and just ping itself interanlly (and thus bypassing any firewalls)22:16

tomreynyou dont need to use links for it. pastebinit will paste andthing piped into it to a pastebin22:30

MikeRLBack.22:32
razieliyotomreyn: as you can see, there's some glx errors, that's why I overrided the xorg.conf22:32
MikeRLI cannot seem to figure out what's causing the issues. Tried downgrading several packages.22:32
tomreynrazieliyo: this suggests you may have incompatible package versions installed from different repositories or OS versions: [   685.357] (EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_dri.so failed (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_dri.so: undefined symbol: _glapi_tls_Dispatch)22:33
razieliyohmmm22:33
razieliyohow in the world? let me check sources.list22:33
MikeRLAnyhow, what was going on earlier - it seems Compiz, Unity, and hardware acceleration don't load up.22:33
tomreynrazieliyo: (apt-get update; apt-get policy)  | pastebinit22:33
MikeRLAny ideas to pinpoint the cause?22:34
nehzahMikeRL: I have been here over an hour and have yet to see any refrence to the actual issue, that is a key unit.22:34
MiniFridgeactually, I have one more question, when in the busybox, what does "exit" do?22:34
MikeRLWell, as for that, I thought I could troubleshoot myself so initially I just asked for a way to check apt history.22:35
razieliyotomreyn: apt-get policy doesn't exist here, but I just checked sources.list and all repos are trusty22:35
MikeRLThat didn't work. My issue is the desktop GUI isn't loading.22:35
MikeRLWell, I get the desktop, but no window decorations, no launcher, no menu bar, and no hardware acceleration.22:35
nehzah!details | MikeRL as a reminder for efficient use of channel22:35
ubottuMikeRL as a reminder for efficient use of channel: 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)22:35
tomreynrazieliyo: sorry, my bad, it's "apt-cache policy"22:36
razieliyotomreyn: oh, np! thanks!22:36
MiniFridgeI typed "exit" and apparently it started doing things like creating a swap partition22:36
MikeRLThat bot is noob proof.22:36
nehzahIt's sentient22:37
MikeRLBut I can click on the desktop icons and the wallpaper and cursor show.22:37
razieliyotomreyn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1179602322:37
razieliyotomreyn: I googled a little about that AIGLX error, and it seems that it could be a bug... but couldn't solve it the ways I checked22:38
MikeRLAnd also, when loading unity from the terminal via unity --replace, I get an OpenGL wrote22:38
MikeRL*wrote > error.22:38
MikeRLWhen I say error, I mean the OpenGL plugin for Compiz won't load.22:39
tomreynrazieliyo: i found the same, but also indication that it's only happening when mixing stuff. but i can be wrong.22:39
tomreynrazieliyo: for sure you have a bunch of PPAs there22:39
razieliyotomreyn: I see22:39
razieliyotomreyn: haha yes22:40
razieliyotomreyn: well, I really don't care for glx, tbh22:40
MikeRLAnd if I right click, I get a black outline about 1cm thick surrounding the context menu. Pure black along the perimeter of it.22:40
razieliyoI just need this working to work tomorrow :/ and really desperate (I guess this is a common statement)22:40
tomreynrazieliyo: one if the PPAs might provide a newer intel driver or xorg than what ubuntu has, introducing the incompatibility / bug22:40
razieliyothat's why I overrided everythng22:40
MikeRLAlso cannot bring up the dash, but I can bring up virtual terminals (CTRL+ALT+Fx)22:41
razieliyotomreyn: yep, maybe, I could remove all ppas, but don't know if that would suffice22:41
tankerkiller125Ok new problem22:41
tomreynrazieliyo: dpkg -l xserver-xorg\* linux-image\* | grep ^i | pastebinit22:41
razieliyotomreyn: thanks! 1 sec22:42
tomreynrazieliyo: first let's see whether my hypothesis is actually correct22:42
tomreynrazieliyo: i.e. we'll check which package versions you have installed22:42
Attox_i have trouble with a realtek ethernet driver, I wonder if someone could help me out?22:42
DoYouKnowhow do I transparent proxy SSL?22:43
DoYouKnowI don't want it to open the certificate, just redirect the traffic. Without using iptables22:43
Attox_the wifi card is the R8101E, i installed the driver from the realtek website, ethernet works, but wifi doesn't even show up22:43
razieliyotomreyn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1179604522:43
tankerkiller125Ok so I have a new problem related to the login screen... I see it and I enter the right password. It goes to the point where I think its about to go to the desktop. Then the screen goes black. And then the screen redirects back to the login page without any errors. Almost as if I had logged out. How do I fix it?22:44
MikeRLSo, did I give enough info? To sum things up, graphics are screwed up to the point Compiz won't load. And I don't know the cause.22:44
razieliyotomreyn: hmmm that utopic package...22:44
tankerkiller125I might also add that I can't get to any of the terminals (there blank black screens)22:44
DoYouKnowWindows 10 is going to get upset at me if it boots up and there's certificate errors from sslsplit22:45
razieliyotomreyn: some extra info, it seems to be arguing about i965 driver, and I think I had i915 earlier, when it was working and I was trying to just configure GLX22:47
razieliyoI think = I'm 99.99% sure22:47
=== Vovvy is now known as PricnessOddihs
razieliyotomreyn: more info, I think this started to screw up when I did: sudo startx -- -extension GLX22:48
tomreynrazieliyo: you'Re using a backported kernel from utopic on trusty. but this backport is out of date. eithe rinstall the standard trusty kernel image or the latest utopic one22:49
jeversonHello22:49
razieliyotomreyn: ok, so that may be the error then? I think I'll go with trusty kernel to avoid version mismatching22:50
razieliyotomreyn: really, from start to here, THANK YOU, I'll tell you what happens22:50
tomreynrazieliyo: i'm looking for more hints to give you if you want to wait a bit more22:51
razieliyotomreyn: ok, np, I still have time22:51
tomreynrazieliyo: or you could downgrade and return if it doesnt help22:51
razieliyotomreyn: I can downgrade, I think that won't hurt22:51

MikeRLWait guys22:57
MikeRLI think I may have fixed it.22:57
MikeRLGoing to reboot and hope for the best.22:57
MikeRLIf I'm lucky it was just a random screw-up.22:58
razieliyotomreyn: nothing :/22:58
tomreynrazieliyo: which linux verison are you running now? cat /proc/version22:59
razieliyotomreyn: more info, all this happened because I was using a nvidia card and just broke today, so it was all working well, but I tried to configure GLX and it all screwed up22:59
razieliyotomreyn: on my way22:59
MikeRLI fixed it.22:59
MikeRLYay!22:59
razieliyotomreyn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1179612123:00
tomreynrazieliyo: graphics acceleration (both 2d and 4d) is enabled by default with intel drivers. there's nothing you need to do manually23:00
nehzahMikeRL: unity is a bit funky, if you mess with configs a reboot maybe needed, sometimes two.23:00
nehzahor restarts..etc23:01
razieliyotomreyn: oh, ok, I just had a "glx not found" error when trying to run a (recompiled) opengl app, so thought on that23:01
tomreynrazieliyo: when you say "nothing" you mean you still got the same error message in Xorg.*.log ?23:02
razieliyotomreyn: yes, just checked it23:03
razieliyotomreyn: AIGLX errors, the same as before23:04
razieliyotomreyn: it seems there's some i965-va-driver, do you think that may help?23:05

tittanbut the graphics are trully slow and poor. Can anyone help-me plese23:07
tittanok sory. I have downloaded the xserver-xorg-video-sismedia_1.0.1-1zatherz1_i386.deb. but it is not working23:08
tomreynrazieliyo: i don't know this driver, so couldn't tell23:08
razieliyotomreyn: ok, I think I'll try installing that one23:08
razieliyowill come back later and again, tomreyn, thanks!23:08
tomreynrazieliyo: i'm surprised it's not working now even though you moved the Xorg.conf file out of the way and are back to the default trusty kernel and xorg packages23:08
tittandoes anyone experience with old sis gpu and Xorg? Or do I switch to vesa graphics?23:09
razieliyotomreyn: yes, it's kinda weird, as you checked with pastebins, it seems everything is correct :/23:09
tomreynrazieliyo: so either we missed something else which is still getting in the way, or it's really a bug in trusty. in the latter case you could try the xorg-edgers PPA23:09
Geo2b2Hey guys. I'm a little confused about the command 'wget' I know i can give the file a name using "wget -O (file name)(actualfile)". But how do i specify the folder path i would like it to download to? I think i have to write '-P' but where do i put that while still changing the name? For example, before '-O'. after23:10
razieliyotomreyn: I'm rebooting and pray (fingers crossed) \()// if that doesn't work, I'll try to install those23:10
Geo2b2or at the end of the file?23:10
nehzahGeo2b2: man wget in the terminal may help23:11
tomreynit's late, i'm off to bed, please tell razieliyo so if he comes around asking for me.23:16
Geo2b2nehzah, i did, that's how i found out the -P command, but i can't find out which way around to put the commands23:17

MiniFridgeHi, I was trying to boot into Ubuntu using a live USB and got into the BusyBox CLI, I then typed "exit" thinking I would be able to get out of it. Instead, it started creating things like a swap partition. What did it create these things on? My USB or the computer's hard disk?23:25
Supermanintightsthis is what it says in the readme.in - pastebin.com/KAnGSgap23:25
SupermanintightsI tried to put ./configure -with-config-uri=htt://data/ but it said no such file or directory23:26
tittanI cant find xorg.conf file in this ubuntu install. Where is the right location? Can anyone provide a template xorg.conf file config?23:26

nehzahfat as read write anyway23:27
wolftunenehzah: the point is I *have* it installed and the post said to *remove* it23:27
mtntittan, typically there is no xorg.conf in modern linux. if you need one, it goes in /etc/X1123:27

nehzahwolftune: How is the usb mounted and do you have a desktop?23:30
nehzahjust mounts from being plugged in or commands? wolftune23:31
nehzahor fstab23:31
wolftuneokay, I can be clear now: the usb drives are mounting as /media/usb0 etc. i.e. as root and not in /media/user/ (user being my username)23:31
wolftunethis mounting is just being plugged in23:31
nehzahwolftune: You going to root at any point?23:32
wolftunenehzah: no, I'm just running the normal system and plugging this in23:32
nehzahwolftune: Hmm, not sure without more info or if I can help at all, there are better helpers in this area, sorry about that.23:34
wolftunenehzah: that's okay thanks anyway23:34
wolftuneanyone else? problem is: USB drives mount as root instead of within /media/user/23:36
Geo2b2Anyone know how to make the 'wget' command change both name and folder destination? I only know how to change name using "wget -O example 'link'". That saves the file, but not to the folder i want it to. I think the command is '-P' (read that in manual) but i can't get it to work with the '-O' command. How can i get both of them to work with eachother? do i have to put the commands in a certain order?23:43
