[00:45] hypernova: and set x pernission on the file [00:45] noobninja: Installing a desktop like that one gives you X, have you logged out or rebooted to see?

Using version 15 [01:03] xangua, thanks [01:03] A theme set that has both gtk 2 and gtk 3 Geo2b2 , most gtk 3 themes have both but you have to check them yourself [01:05] xangua, oh ok. that clears things up a bit more, thank you.

[01:26] ANyone? [01:26] Authentication checks? [01:26] you have runscript in the folder. you need to run that file ./ts3client_runscript.sh [01:26] how? [01:26] just type ./ts3client_runscript.sh in the terminal. you have to cd into the directory first of course [01:26] i don't want to do that every time... [01:27] Yeah i know what you mean. i dont know a solution to that right now though, tbh [01:27] run a script [01:27] that won;t work... [01:27] there are probably scripts or whatever to create icons [01:29] I'm having a hard time upgrading from 12.10 to the newest...How exactly do I do this?

Can I install with the newest version of ubuntu and keep all of my programs / configuations? [01:32] !eol | antonio_ [01:32] antonio_: 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/EOLUpgrades [01:33] omg i got it [01:35] where is sources.list? [01:35] how hyper [01:36] anyone? [01:36] antonio_: see "man sources.list" [01:37] antonio_: 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 . [01:39] bashing-om: Whats more reliable to keep all of my current programs / configs? Doing a fresh install with 14.10? or upgrading? [01:40] antonio_ upgrade [01:40] antonio_: You have backups. I would highly recommned a clean fresh install of 14.04 . [01:40] bashing-om: and then copying over the /home folder after I cresh install? [01:42] antonio_: No, I would only copy back to the new install such things as still required . [01:42] Someone know how to enable javascript in Links? [01:42] bashing-om: like what? [01:42] help! i was trying to reduce my encrypted partitions following this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ResizeEncryptedPartitions#Reduce_an_encrypted_partition and now when i try to boot my system it says "no volume groups found" [01:42] essential files? [01:44] antonio_: 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] bashing-om: what if I want to keep my current programs / configs? [01:45] antonio_: Like 3rd party stuff ? [01:45] bashing-om: yeah...thunderbird, kdenlive, etc. [01:45] antonio_: [01:45] huh? [01:46] in the liveCD now it says /dev/sda5 is not a valid LUKS device [01:46] /wc/ [01:47] Much 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 . [01:48] hi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ia9YSGiYh5w&feature=share [01:49] antonio_: ^^ In respect to get-selections; see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=261366 . [01:56] help! i was trying to reduce my encrypted partitions following this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ResizeEncryptedPartitions#Reduce_an_encrypted_partition and now when i try to boot my system it says "no volume groups found", when i try 'cryptsetup luksOpen' in a liveCD it says "not a valid LUKS device" [01:58] bashing-om: where does it save that file of installed softs? [02:00] antonio_: Wherever you direct . For instance ' dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages ' would save the file to your desktop as file name "my-packages" . [02:01] is there a way to logout out of gdm3 [02:01] never mind, found it ;) [02:01] say im in a vm [02:02] im done with desktop want to logout out gdm completely just take it back to black command line login [02:02] possible?

You all ubuntu programmers or just flys on the wall? [02:12] Hello all. Any JACK Audio connection junkies out there? I'm having the biggest headache. Jack audio connection kit was working like, 2 hours ago. I had it working perfectly. All I wanted to do is just change the sound latency. I changed the frames/period, but after doing that, the whole entire thing wouldn't work. I've altered a lot of settings, just in hopes that I'd get it working again. It won't do anything. In fact, I changed th [02:12] e name of my JACK settings preset, and I think that screwed it up even more. http://pastebin.com/rTrdDtwc here's the error log. [02:12] the military will warn you not to install this os but i love this version [02:13] why wont 14.04 update to 14.05 ??? Correct? [02:13] wtf? [02:14] put down the bong man [02:14] Anybody know if 14.05 is out yet? [02:14] you mean 15.05? [02:14] gregory http://releases.ubuntu.com/ [02:15] i guess everything is lost. damn that article!

[03:16] yeah you bought that pc iwth win 8.1? [03:16] !uefi | MiniFridge take a looksie [03:16] MiniFridge 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/UEFI [03:16] Well, I built it. [03:16] I installed a retail version of Windows 8.1 on it [03:17] yeah so by the sounds of it you got two options, (1 if you want to dual boot with win8) [03:18] either use the bios fallback instead of uefi or get ubuntu workign over uefi (read the ubottu link) [03:19] Is there a way to find out if I installed Windows 8.1 via UEFI or legacy? [03:19] I forgot what I did, it was over a year ago. [03:19] what is your BIOS set at currently ? [03:20] more than likley you never changed it back to UEFI if installed while in legacy [03:20] if you bought the parts recently it would be uefi im fairly sure anyone else got a more solid idea of that? [03:21] Well, 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] MiniFridge: ' [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS ' . [03:23] sorry :2199 [03:24] it does look like I have fast startup enabled. [03:24] I will take a look at it.

[04:05] If I try to browse the web while downloading the connection resets and drops to like 10kb/s [04:05] RTL8185, I think. Driver is 818x_pci [04:05] I'm having a strange issue... Programs freezings without warning repeatedly just for opening. and closing without warning or error notice [04:06] !realtek | Mista_Hezakiah [04:06] Mista_Hezakiah: some help for recent Realtek chipsets can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/RealtekRTL8187b [04:06] Is 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] Mista_Hezakiah: you might wanna look at realteks website for latest linux drivers/firmwares also [04:06] Thanks. Surprised this didn't show up in google. [04:07] Mista_Hezakiah: also, did you install ubuntu with internet cable enabled+updates+3rd party? [04:07] I looked but I have to build from source and change driver myself. The source comes with little instruction [04:07] Yes lotus [04:08] El-Hrairah: you want to build an own ubuntu iso? [04:10] lotuspsychje: 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] El-Hrairah: can you explain a bit what purpose do you have with it? [04:11] lotuspsychje 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 none [04:11] lotuspsychje: Mostly not having to redownload 500mb of packages every time I install a system. [04:11] El-Hrairah: the problem with that is, packages keep updating fast so even with this method you will always have to update [04:12] lotuspsychje: True, but I can always keep my iso somewhat up-to-date. [04:12] El-Hrairah: and its very reccomended to install ubuntu with internet and updates enabled at the beginning of install [04:13] lotuspsychje: I don't always have internet access for that sort of thing. [04:13] lotuspsychje: And I don't always have a fast connection. [04:13] El-Hrairah: how about you use aptoncd and make a favorite list of your packages to backup [04:13] lotuspsychje: Let me look into that one.

I've looked in the terminal keyboard shortcuts and the system shortcuts, but i can't find anything that will let me do that. I also tried creating my own shortcut, which would lead to the terminal opening, but not closing on the same shortcut key. So that resulted in another terminal opening every time i pressed it.

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] Geo2b2, I think mega uses a bunch of javascript and the link might be bogus [06:23] Kartagis: is there a way to do that from a live system? I can login since I lost my user password with encrypted home [06:23] *cant [06:23] fullstack, the link i have used before on windows, and it worked fine [06:23] trijntje: edit /etc/passwd then [06:23] Geo2b2, then try putting single quotes around the link [06:24] Geo2b2, wget 'http://mega.com/aaklsdfjaflskd&!@#&*(!@&#(*!@&&7!&!&!&!!&' [06:24] Geo2b2, the & are probably screwing things up [06:24] Kartagis: that wont work, since that wont update the encryption password [06:25] I'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] fullstack, 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 work [06:25] Geo2b2, check the URL in a incognito browser and see if it downloads it [06:25] trijntje: I *think* you can use mkpasswd and use that to edit /etc/passwd- [06:26] hello, is http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/linux-image-3.13.0-55-generic a stable kernel? [06:27] fullstack, you mean download through wget while the browser is in incognito? Or through the browser [06:27] - directly [06:27] cuqa: Should be, why? [06:27] just curious [06:27] Geo2b2, no.. your URL could be bad. Try testing the URL by pasting it into a browser and seeing if it actually is a good link [06:27] because the system freezes often apparently [06:28] but no reason can be seen for the freezes [06:28] kernel is an awfully big target [06:28] fullstack, 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] Kartagis: AFAIK only the graphical user config tool updates the encryption keys when you change passwords. I think ill just do a reinstall, thats probably faster [06:29] probably [06:29] Geo2b2, 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] Geo2b2, If I remember I think MEGA does encryption INSIDE the browser and requires all sorts of Javascript special stuff [06:30] fullstack, Oh, so all mega links are like that and can't be used through wget? [06:30] Geo2b2, 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 while [06:31] Geo2b2, you might be able to find some kind of Node.js module that can do something like wget for mega [06:31] lotuspsychje: how can i see the syslog if everything in the terminal is invisible? [06:31] fullstack, I'm a noob and only started using linux this week, lol. Sorry, but what do you mean by node.js module? [06:32] Geo2b2, if you know node.js you could use this module https://www.npmjs.com/package/mega to write a program to get the file [06:33] Geo2b2, but you should juse download the file in a browser if you don't.. :) [06:33] im about to reinstall ubuntu....how can I backup my firefox? [06:34] antonio_: save the ~/.mozilla/ folder [06:34] ah ok [06:34] then just copy it over? [06:34] fullstack, 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] Yep [06:38] owen1: can you still enter nautilus? [06:39] I'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? [06:40] Kartagis: what do you mean with make it work?

I get the standard grub menu for boot off of disk [06:42] ObrienDave: yea, it was working before I switched a few other distros and came back to my beloved ubuntu, which I have been using since hardy [06:42] already asked this in #vmware. no constructive response yet [06:43] Kartagis, have you tried it under windows? it's really strange it reports unallocated [06:43] hi [06:44] no, not yet [06:44] I 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 image [06:44] Kartagis: I'd guess it got corrupted somehow, unless you can open it on windows or another operating system [06:44] I haven't got access to a windows atm [06:45] Kartagis: it could be gpt, I'm not sure if gparted can read that [06:45] trijntje: how do I check whether it's GPT? [06:45] yea, 3TB requires GPT. gparted should be able to read it [06:46] http://paste.debian.net/265230/ <--- does this help? fdisk -l output [06:46] i would recommend running chkdsk in windows before you lose anything on the drive [06:48] it looks valid. why gparted says unallocated is beyond me [06:51] is there any way to force Ubuntu to use a wireless connection when installing ubuntu 14.04 Its not allowing me to use a wifi connection when I try.

[10:17] pHuNk3r5, did you really resize the partition or added a new partition? [10:17] pHuNk3r5, a new disk that is [10:17] pHuNk3r5, a thought, you resized. did you then activate/add the additional space? with gparted? [10:18] (VBoxManage modifyhd YOUR_HARD_DISK.vdi --resize SIZE_IN_MB) -- that's the command I did [10:18] cfhowlett, yeah I ain't done that, I was wondering how [10:18] pHuNk3r5, didn't work.

[10:24] cfhowlett, thanks [10:24] EriC^^, thanks, its working now with 144hz and radeon driver [10:24] pHuNk3r5: you need to resize the filesystem as well [10:25] pHuNk3r5: not sure if gparted does that for you, if it doesn't you need to use resize2fs to expand it [10:25] tete_: great [10:25] woohoo [10:26] i run ati also, work waaaay better than any other ive had, glmark2 reports 100% [10:37] Hey folks. I created a desktop file for a python script which opens a window using tk.

[10:45] Johnny_Linux, i dont play on linux [10:45] i need it to work [10:45] all work and no play makes johnny a dull boy [10:46] lol [10:46] pehlert, 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] kostkon: So what exactly needs to match? The window title should match, I'm not sure about app name [10:48] @Johnny_Linux: playonlinux and steam are best spots for playing on linux [10:51] Johnny_Linux, but you dont work in a motel, dont you? :P [10:51] pehlert, 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? [10:53] pehlert, actually the icon it's irrelevant. In reality, your DE does not make the connection between the desktop file and the window. [10:53] Is 3072 Bytes per frame too much for a usb hub to hundle?

I've got a really strange problem with my work computer. Something is strange with the port it's connected to, and it always insists it's unplugged even when it is. Is it possible for me to override link detection somehow? [13:13] cfhowlett:- dpkg status database is locked by another process when i use sudo dpkg -i commmand [13:14] !aptlock | root_ [13:14] root_: If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [13:14] root_: is software center closed and another terminal using apt/dpkg ? [13:14] root_: update manager maybe? [13:18] software center is closed [13:18] root_: update-manager may be running background [13:18] Sorry, I got disconnected somehow! I'll ask again; I have a strange thing with my ethernet port at work where the connection will work just fine all the way up to a reboot, and then it can't detect the link anymore. Is it possible for me to override link detection? [13:19] eraggo: how do i stop update manager [13:19] root_: type ps aux | grep dpkg | nc termbin.com 9999 and paste here [13:19] root_, follow the aptlock link you got earlier [13:22] thank all [13:24] in my launcher (unity, 14.04), i have chrome pinned to position #8. most of the time it works sometimes, but sometimes a page opened in chrome by another app spawns another instance. where might this inconsistency be coming from?

I am going to updtae her system and install some applications that she might need [13:33] I know about ssh and teamviewer like applications [13:33] but I like to know your expert ideas [13:35] both options are fine. if you dont need to see any graphical interfaces, ssh might be faster/easier for you [13:35] fellas? [13:35] !patience | Radon_3 [13:35] Radon_3: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [13:36] 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] *introsions = intrusion [13:36] Radon_3: SSH [13:36] oh, btw both systems are running ubuntu [13:37] if the problem is trust issues with her, i'd say teamviewer. she will have a button to abort it easily [13:37] just saying... [13:37] hateball : thanks, so I will ask her to make me an ssh account. thanks [13:37] Radon_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 in [13:37] oh... and can she see what I am doing? [13:37] by using teamviewer i mean? [13:37] yes [13:38] cool, then i think it is better to go with teamviwewer [13:38] teamviewer behaves as if you would be sitting on her pc basically [13:38] cause the last thing i need is a mistrusting friend [13:38] pbx: i had similar issue few nights back.

[16:12] But now I don't know what else to do. [16:12] mtn: Oh, it's a 320 GB HDD by the way, not 250 GB [16:12] pbx: 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. [16:13] sorry i don't really know how to explain in english.. :/ [16:13] eraggo: 64bit. Unfortantly I can't actually fix it now (power just decided to fail on me) So my desktop is down for now. I will come back later when the power comes back.

[16:21] @ 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? [16:22] i would like to recommend 15.04 but i am using 14.something. Works like a charm [16:23] eraggo, I wont have any issue installing 15.04 even though I am first time installing linux? [16:23] abs25: probably not [16:23] because on webpage it says recommened for most users at 14.04 version [16:24] abs25: the trade off is cutting-edge vs. stability - 14.04 is probably more stable. 15.04 has newer software. [16:24] abs25, 14.04 is a long term support, so will be supported for much longer [16:24] abs25: depends on your system; if you have high-end graphics card that will come issue. [16:24] no I have 3 year old low level gpu [16:24] abs25: go for 14.04 [16:25] mtn, what does that mean they wont update 15.04 but they will 14.04 [16:25] ok [16:25] abs25, support, not just updating. after a few months, 15 will no longer get any updates [16:25] or support [16:25] why the numbers go down? [16:25] why is 14 better than 15? [16:25] makes no sense [16:26] abs25: ubuntu uses format yy.mm; yyi s year and mm is month [16:26] hi 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] abs25: 14.04 is an LTS (5 years of support). 15.04 is an interim release with a much shorter support period. [16:27] oh so they keep developing bit unstable stuff for advanced users, but keep working on one older version with support for regular users,?

[16:29] OerHeks: I intent to use the CLI though, but I guess in that case I'll have to modify /etc/apt/sources.lst ? [16:30] eraggo: thanks for the heads-up.

[16:34] it should ask for your user pass [16:34] or to agree that installations [16:34] i dont want it [16:34] cemg: script that short it should ask it once [16:35] can ubuntu checksum the mbr some how? [16:36] isnt there any other way ?

[16:38] cemg: You could run it as the root user. [16:39] cemg: 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. [16:40] rypervenche: so just run the script itself with sudo? [16:40] sudo su [16:40] then execute ? [16:40] oop nevermind [16:40] * teward just showed up late xD [16:40] cemg: 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] cemg, not sudo su, use ' sudo -i ' [16:41] hmm okey [16:41] cemg: It is creating a python virtual environment. You'll want to do that as a normal user. [16:41] or sudo < script> [16:41] sudo ./installer.sh ? [16:42] cemg: Lines 5 to 24 need root privileges. I would just add sudo in front of each line there. [16:42] i did [16:42] cemg: Then run the script as your user, no need for sudo. [16:42] sudo ./installer.sh [16:42] hmm okey [16:42] cemg: Just run ./installer.sh [16:42] Anyone having problems with mouse acceleration? It seems its disabled for me. [16:43] okey i will add sudo in front of everyline [16:44] cemg, running that script as root does the same. [16:44] sudo su , then just ./installer.sh ? [16:45] mtn: So it still isn't finished partitioning... [16:45] It think it has stalled again [16:45] cemg: No no. You want to run it as your normal user. [16:45] cemg: Or whatever user you plan on using. [16:45] Superpelican_, using gparted from the live disk? [16:45] yeah [16:45] no [16:45] i want to run it as a normal user [16:45] I removed all the partitions with GParted [16:45] cemg: That script is a mess. [16:46] and now I am trying to install Debian again [16:46] why ? :D [16:46] Superpelican_, why not? it has been suggested to you here and in the link you mentioned. just do it! [16:46] cemg: Lines 46 and 49 need sudo as well [16:46] Anyone having problems with mouse acceleration? It seems its disabled for me. [16:46] But how should I partition it?

[16:47] ahh , then i dont know what to do :( [16:47] Yes, but how will I get Debian to use an existing partition scheme? [16:48] cemg: You do NOT want to add sudo to every line. [16:48] which lines , just that all apt-get lines ? [16:49] Superpelican_, sounds like more a question for #debian [16:49] vsftp is giving me trouble. [16:49] The install did not give me a default vsftp.conf file in /etc. [16:49] OerHeks: yes, but I was having the exact same problem with Ubuntu 15.04 [16:50] which I originally was trying to install [16:50] cemg: Delete line 4, then add sudo to 5 through 24, 35, 46, and 49 [16:50] it also stalled at 1/3rd in the partitioning stage [16:50] I have a semi-complicated question. If I install win8.1 to a partition on a ssd drive, then install Ubuntu 15.04 to another partition on the same drive, then use the Ubuntu CD to Veracrypt the Ubuntu install partition, will I be able to boot to Win8.1? Then reboot to the CD, unencrypt the Ubuntu installation partition, and reboot into Ubuntu 15.04?

If you do not like it, you are free to look elsewhere. Personally I would not trust Veracrypt at all. But I won't get into that. We can chat in offtopic if you wish to talk about that.

[17:59] The need is I have two windows developers who want to help maintain a site using visual studio. [18:00] It was anticipated by them that they could get in if they had ftp protocol available. [18:03] I tried several other things, and login ftp consistently fails for my user, which works with ssh. [18:07] xcyclist: Any reason you're not using SFTP? FTP is not secure and it's a very old protocol. [18:08] hi guys [18:08] does anyone know a good channel for lxc support [18:08] Hi. I'm having a problem with the OSD popups from applications. qBittorrent ran out of disk space, thus spammed hundres of notifications. Previously all these notifications would all be shown at once and be gone after 5 seconds. Now each notification comes up one by one, and it takes 30-45 minutes before the all notifications in the queue has been shown. How can i clear this queue?

I suggested sftp and was told ftp was needed. [18:11] I mentioned the security matters.

[18:24] xcyclist: Unless they need anonymous access, which they don't since they need write access, any decent FTP client will also support SFTP. [18:26] xcyclist: Most people are using Filezilla these days, which supports SFTP. [18:26] No, they don't need anonymous access. The client is visual studio.... [18:28] xcyclist: Ah ok. I missed that. Sucks to be them. I can help you if you like. [18:29] What do you suggest? [18:31] rypervenche: I am very interested in any helpful suggestion.

[19:07] Hobbet1: depends, do you notice any differences? [19:08] I shouldn't have to reboot to get alsa to work but I might as well try it. [19:09] Hobbet1: for example i use the proprietary nvidia drivers on the 3.13 kernel because otherwise, i freeze when resuming suspend === noncomcinse_ is now known as noncomcinse [19:09] no so is there a difference to use one or the other [19:09] but another fix, would be to keep the open source drivers and update the kernel [19:09] Hobbet1: then just stick with the open source driver [19:10] Nope. No dice. [19:10] Hobbet1: many claim open source drivers are more secure, they are definitely way less bloated === newbie is now known as Guest99682 [19:10] also more compatible with kernel upgrades [19:11] Hobbet1: but if you want even less bloated, use trisquel instead of ubuntu [19:11] lol [19:17] well well ubuntu, you've done it this time; that was a relatively smooth experience getting my Epson Perfection v30 up & scanning (with a decent UI at that) [19:17] or i was just very lucky i bought that particular model [19:17] thanks again jhutchins!

I have no gui installed on my servers, so its strictly console access [19:34] Hey 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 fine [19:35] its through ipmi virtual console access, so no video card is really involved. [19:37] Tai15: 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] Jordan_U, I have a RAID 10 array that's mounted an LV [19:38] as an LV* [19:40] Tai15: 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] Jordan_U, I'm sorry if I'm not being clear, but yes, that is exactly how my server is configured.

Will keys be mapped correctly?

[20:13] Tai15: How did you rebuild the array? [20:14] mdadm --assemble --force /dev/md127 /dev/sd[b-h]1 [20:18] Tai15: 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." [20:19] Tai15: Why did you decide to use --force? [20:19] uh, when I tried to --assemble --scan, it told me there was only one drive (!?) even though I could clearly see the other ones [20:21] Tai15: And what lead you to believe that --force was specifically the option you should use? [20:22] I was reading https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID_Recovery and trying to follow the steps they provided [20:26] guys, any new ideas? [20:28] any ideas Jordan_U? [20:29] Quick question: What is in your opinion the best laptop to get that can run ubuntu with no problem [20:32] bishops, a laptop that comes with ubuntu, or see the HCL list [20:32] !hcl [20:32] For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection [20:32] bishops: dell or system76 offer to ship ubuntu in first place. then thinkpads and other ones that are run by the typical tech guys. [20:32] OerHeks: i understand, but some laptops on the list once reviewed seem to have problems [20:33] i presonally have a x1 carbon and i feel that the battery is not as good as if it was on windows [20:35] k1l_: yes system76 sounds good, do you think it is better than dell? [20:35] battery on Linux is shockingly bad on all devices :/ [20:35] and excessive heat [20:36] yes [20:36] nicekiwi: Talk to manufacturers and don't mak broad fud statements. [20:36] Hey. Does anyone know why in Ubuntu, searching online there will always be t=canonical in the url? [20:36] make* [20:36] yes [20:37] !ot | lixunero We will make sure you hang in the correct channel!! [20:37] lixunero We will make sure you hang in the correct channel!!: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [20:38] thank you [20:38] No one knows about the t=canonical thing? [20:38] Geo2b2: yes, because Canonical insert that term in the Search provider XML settings: See for yourself: "grep -rn canonical /usr/lib/firefox/distribution/*" [20:38] canonical! [20:38] Tai15: I'm not very familiar with RAID recovery, so maybe someone else can help. Do you have backups? [20:39] yes [20:39] TJ-, thanks. But why do they do this? Is it a good idea to remove that, or comment it out? [20:39] Jordan_U, yes, full backups [20:39] Geo2b2: To get paid on click-throughs [20:40] yes yes [20:40] Tai15: Then you may want to just start from scratch and restore from backup, if nobody else has a better idea. [20:40] lixunero: stop that random stuff. [20:40] sorry [20:40] TJ-, Oh, ok. Do you know if it's safe to remove? Sorry if thats a dumb question, i'm pretty new [20:41] Jordan_U, okay, I will follow the steps then on the site I linked to recreate the RAID and hope that works, and if not, I can copy from the backups [20:41] Tai15: As that page mentions, the linux-raid mailing list is also a good resource. [20:41] k1l [20:41] okay, I'll send an e-mail [20:42] I do not say random things [20:43] lixunero: ##chat for chatting. this channel is for support only [20:45] Geo2b2: Which search engine do you see it with? [20:45] KL1 : as well [20:45] TJ-, duckduckgo primarily and google when i use it. [20:46] Geo2b2: Yes, I've seen it with DDG ... can't see it in that grep for Google though [20:46] TJ-, however if i actually go to the search engine website and search, it doesn't happen for some reason [20:47] TJ-, 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? [20:48] Geo2b2: and what harm is it doing¿ [20:48] 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 fail [20:49] xangua, I'm not sure, i just don't really want it there. [20:51] bghfre, your saying that out of the box linux distors have good power savings? talk about broad fud statements.. [20:51] nicekiwi: I did not say that, you are biased live with it. [20:51] TJ-, 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] embrace it you know reflect [20:51] seems when I try to login to my laptop the screen flickers for a couple seconds and then gives me the login screen again [20:51] any idea what might be broke there? [20:51] Geo2b2: It looks like there most of the searchplugins contain some form of distributor indicator, I did a quick survey of the files reported by: "dpkg -S searchplugins" [20:51] hello everyone, what commandline wifi manager would you recommend me?

[20:53] happens with compiz and alt-tab [20:53] poorUser: you are probably using AMD or nVidia cards. [20:53] yes [20:53] poorUser: JUst the daily download is all, it updates on the install. [20:53] geforce [20:53] fxmulder: A proprietary grahics driver that was in use ? and now broke in a upgrade, perhaps ? [20:53] xangua, yeah.. but Im not, I avoid inliux on mobile for the reason reason that to get good battery I personally have to tweak a lot of stuff to make it work. Which in the end may or may not help. [20:53] linux* [20:53] poorUser: Err sorry you meant inthe OS, my mistake. [20:54] poorUser: AMD and nVidia are still a bit of an issue there. This is the reason I went with Intel integrated ones. They have open source drivers. [20:54] 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 defa [20:54] ult [20:54] yep i can only ctrl-alt-f1 and reboot the system [20:54] no way to get back the desktop [20:54] :( [20:54] poorUser: not even with Ctrl+Alt+F7?

[20:56] how can I tell if I have a proprietary graphics driver installed? [20:56] TJ-, ahh, that's actually a pretty great idea! Thank you for that. However, when i do this, do i just comment it out, or remove the canonical part in the copy? I don't know too much about how this stuff works, so I'm wondering what the best way to do that part would be [20:56] bghfre, it sort of does... I was looking at this. I'm honestly just not entirely sure of myself messing with it [20:57] when i type ctrl-alt-f7, i return to the desktop, but is frozen / random parts of the desktops are shown [20:57] Techspectre: Yeah, it is a bit intimidating at first, great help here though, just ask as needed.

Thank you for all your help, and I hope you have a good night [21:06] 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. Usually the nvidia driver detects the conflict and writes a prominent warning into the system's /var/log/dmesg each time the system starts. [21:06] poorUser: your using compiz?

You should check for updated BIOS/firmware and see if you can install it [21:10] Hello, yesterday I joined here to ask for help with making a Ubuntu live USB that I could use every now and then. No matter what, though, I always get sent to the Busybox intramfs prompt when I select "Try Ubuntu". I have verified the hash of Ubuntu 14.04.2 64-bit and the USB creators. I have tried LiLi and Universal USB Installer. I am using Windows 8.1. Someone mentioned that I may be booting Windows into UEFI and [21:10] that may have been causing a problem, but I verified my OS drive is booting via legacy. [21:10] I NEED to get the network connection to be called eth0 [21:10] qwebirc71682: well, better ask the centos support then [21:10] but mine is called eth4 [21:10] how can I change it/ [21:10] geforce gt540m (asus' laptops) [21:10] k1l_: I would, but the centos chat room is a desert [21:11] k1l_: I asked but have yet to get an answer [21:11] qwebirc71682: well, then dont use that OS if support is important to you. please ask in ##linux then [21:11] k1l_: any help would be really appreciated [21:11] And whenever I boot off the Live USB the USB boot is first and UEFI boot off the USB is second. [21:11] qwebirc71682: See /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules [21:12] tnk TJ [21:12] poorUser: try kernel 4.1 [21:12] it looks like a very bad news [21:12] MiniFridge: Which option did you use to boot the USB drive, or did you try both? [21:12] and nouveau [21:12] ok grinchier i'll try that too [21:12] I only tried USB recently [21:12] I can try UEFI, if you want me to. [21:12] nouveau? are you sure? [21:13] well try kernel first [21:13] i think you can disable acpi [21:13] k i'll try them all [21:13] MiniFridge, secure boot disables, and fastboot disabled in windows? [21:13] 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 to [21:13] acpi=off [21:13] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Common_Kernel_Options [21:13] also i've the famous acpi probe fail [21:14] grinchier: That is never a good idea nowadays; all PCs rely on ACPI extensively [21:14] i'll try to disable acpit oo [21:14] MiniFridge: 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] TJ-: well if machine keeps locking up, what could it hurt? [21:14] OerHeks, fastboot is enabled. Secureboot state says, "Unsupported" [21:14] poorUser: You might find adding to the kernel command line "acpi_os_name=linux" *might* help, though there is no guarantee [21:14] whole bunch of boot options to try [21:15] grinchier: Hurt even more, it'll leave key parts of the PC incorrectly configured. [21:15] MiniFridge, ah, disable fast boot, that prevents booting from usb [21:15] Jordan_U, I honestly don't know why I installed it that way. [21:15] My ubuntu 14.04 server is really starting to drag, what are my go-to diagnostics to see where this is originating? [21:15] k tanks to all! [21:15] TJ-: hurt more then him constanlty having to hard reset? ok... [21:15] i'll try all options and repot which one works ^^ [21:15] poorUser: get rid of ubuntu and install trisquel [21:15] Someone was helping me and they may have made an error when I was building my PC or I may have made an error. [21:15] jayjo, top and iotop? [21:15] grinchier: Yeah.. like not enabling fans, not configuring chipsets correctly, not reacting to platform events [21:15] MiniFridge: OK. Try booting the Ubuntu USB via UEFI but don't install yet even if it boot successfully. [21:16] OerHeks, okay. Thanks. [21:16] poorUser: install trisquel and update to 4.1 kernel [21:16] кто-то знает где я наити русский форуми? [21:16] How do I inspect my disk usage, etc?

[21:22] max1212: this channel is english only [21:22] ne [21:22] нет [21:23] fxmulder: How about we purge the current driver, and see then what the system will install from the software repository ? [21:23] I'm trying to reinstall a bunch of programs from my 12.10 installation via this terminal command. (sudo dpkg --set-selections < installed-software) Here is a pastebin of the errors I'm getting. Any way I can make this happen? http://pastebin.com/F37QJtcx [21:23] max1212: read the bots message. he told you the russian #ubuntu-ru channel [21:23] спасибо [21:24] UEFI worked, USB did not. [21:24] :D [21:24] Bashing-om, maybe fxmulder encountered the .Xauthority bug? [21:24] I could also access all my files from Windows, which was a pleasant surprise. [21:25] But, why would UEFI be working if Windows boots via legacy? [21:25] The error I'm getting is "found unknown packages; this might mean the available database [21:25] is outdated, and needs to be updated through a frontend method" [21:26] OerHeks: fxmulder ^^ that too is a possibility . Slipped my mind too to check this is not a PPA installed driver ! [21:26] would I need to use fail2ban on ssh if im also using UFW limit on ssh port? [21:26] MiniFridge: 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. [21:27] .Xauthority bug? [21:27] hm. Interesting. [21:28] fxmulder, change of ownership failure after an update. http://askubuntu.com/questions/436925/ownership-of-xauthority-transferred-to-root [21:28] A bit confusing, but I think I sort of get what you mean. [21:28] hi [21:28] fxmulder, login with cntrl alt F2 , ls -al # and see the ownership of .Xauthority [21:29] fxmulder: A quick check ' ls -al .Xauthority ; ls -al .ICEauthority ' See that "you" have owenership and grouped . [21:29] 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/AbNRRts3 [21:29] Now, 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] that 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 screen [21:29] 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? [21:30] MiniFridge: Only if you explicitly ran executables from your Windows installation. [21:30] antonio_, due to version numbers i think you need to select them manually? get-selections is distro dependend. [21:30] antonio_: Yes that was me for 'get-selections' . [21:30] bashing-om: ok, I thought so... [21:30] ah, okay. But, if there was an autorun file, wouldn't that automatically run in the Linux environment? [21:30] oerheks: how would I do that? [21:32] antonio_, install synaptic, detailed softwarecenter. but i think lots of those errors are from programs you already have, too. [21:32] Hello. 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] Kind of like how Synaptic does it, but with apt. [21:32] hey I deleted my /var/log/kern.log and now my kernel does not log anymore. How can I fix this? [21:32] Bare with me as I'm typing from my Nexus 6. [21:33] MiniFridge: /var/log/dpkg.log [21:33] fxmulder: Vack to a driver. Any PPA involeved here before (RE-)installing a driver ' tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ' ? [21:33] oerheks: how would those errors be from programs I already have? This is a fresh install of 14.04 [21:33] Jordan_U, what's that? [21:33] MiniFridge: A log of dpkg operations. [21:33] Oh thanks. [21:33] That should help. [21:34] antonio_, 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] MiniFridge: Sorry, that message was meant for MikeRL rather than you. [21:34] That way I can determine what caused the issue and go from there. I can downgrade it and report the issue afterwards. [21:34] Jordan_U, ah, okay. :P [21:34] No problem. [21:34] antonio_, so good luck finding manually the installed/missing package versions. [21:34] Anyhow, I'll check that, and once I determine the package, I'll be back. [21:35] So, nothing I do is stored on my live USB if persistence is not enabled, correct? [21:35] MiniFridge: Correct. [21:35] Not even clipboard copies? [21:35] MiniFridge: Nothing. [21:35] okay [21:36] ok, 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] I 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 fine [21:37] Whenever 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? [21:38] MiniFridge it's useless to update a live session... when you stop the session, everythings's gone [21:38] aikidouke: What grub-install command are you trying to run? What do you mean by "install grub on the boot partition"? [21:38] more info, boot part is fat32 error " warning file system fat doesnt support embedding [21:38] grub-install /dev/sda2 [21:38] MonkeyDust, okay, so what about software vulnerabilities? Should I make a live USB with persistence, then? [21:38] im trying to fix a broken uefi system [21:38] says the boot partition is /dev/sda2 [21:39] aikidouke: 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] MiniFridge what do you want to achieve? a 100% safe system? [21:40] ok, so should the command just be grub-install /dev/sda ? [21:40] fxmulder: Great, As I live and learn too . [21:40] wait, ok, so no device argument ok.. === rasalghul is now known as _rasalghul_ [21:41] aikidouke: 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] MonkeyDust, 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] hi [21:42] gotcha...ty trying [21:42] Bashing-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 kernel [21:42] MiniFridge yes, you can handle them in a live session, but save them on your hard disk, or external usb disk [21:42] MiniFridge or in the cloud [21:42] hi [21:42] who's can help me? [21:42] yeah, I just want to copy the file over to another USB without leaving the file somehow hanging around on my system. [21:42] mester start with a question [21:43] Hiiiii [21:43] I wonder how long I'll need to narrow this down. [21:43] anyone can help me? [21:43] MiniFridge yes, then a live session is a good idea [21:43] !details | mester [21:43] mester: 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) [21:44] MonkeyDust, so the live session will also not save system files to any of my additional disks, right? [21:46] fxmulder: I would imagine if one were to install the driver booted with the custom kernel, the driver would build against that kernel . [21:46] hi, 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 libpcap0.8 [21:46] hello dose anyone know any good linux linux softwher for auto tune [21:46] how i can fix this issue [21:46] join [21:46] MiniFridge no, you have to save them yourself [21:46] ok [21:46] okay, thank you for your help. [21:47] MiniFridge a live session save nothing [21:47] I appreciate it. [21:47] um [21:47] what do you do here [21:47] MiniFridge: 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] Notch: This is ubuntu support the chanel is described at the top of your page. [21:47] Hay what would you use for video editing like a good os [21:47] Jordan_U, so it would be utilizing those, then? [21:48] Notch type /topic [21:48] Those swap files? [21:48] MiniFridge: 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] hi, 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 libpcap0.8 [21:48] !info reaver [21:48] reaver (source: reaver): brute force attack tool against Wifi Protected Setup PIN number. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.4-2 (vivid), package size 218 kB, installed size 584 kB [21:48] MiniFridge: Swap partitions, not swap files. The Ubuntu LiveCD/USB will not look for existing swap files. [21:48] Um how do I recover a ubuntu instlation [21:49] Notch use your backup [21:49] Jordan_U, why would that be an issue? [21:49] I dont have a back up [21:49] Can the live session utilize that automatically, then? [21:49] .leave === MiniFridge is now known as Guest41337 [21:51] I just installed 14.04. I want to install Skype now. The only one I see on their website is for 12.04. Can I use that one safely? [21:51] hello. is there a binary build for ue4 on ubuntu? i asked #ue4linux and it's dead [21:52] MiniFridge: 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] ... I wouldn't worry about it practically. [21:52] !skype | antonio_ [21:52] antonio_: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga [21:52] antonio_: skyoe is in the ubuntu repos. [21:52] skype* [21:53] sorry. I may have missed what you said before you said my name, Jordan_U. I can't seem to get my name back. I might have to wait a few minutes. [21:53] Hello I'm back... And it seems to have gotten worse now. When I boot up (15.04) the screen starts to boot. Then goes to sleep mode. But I know it boots all the way (using upstart atleast) because of the login screen sound. [21:53] I got the one of you talking about the text file, though. [21:54] MiniFridge2: That is the last message I sent to you. === MiniFridge2 is now known as MiniFridge [21:54] okay, got my nick back [21:54] Jordan_U, alright, so I'm guessing I didn't miss anything then. :) [21:55] Jordan_U, would the text editor have to be on the computer's disks or could it also be on the live USB? [21:56] MiniFridge: I don't understand your question. [21:58] I need to install flash so I can get videos / facebook / youtube / etc. to work. What is the best flash distribution? [21:58] How can i update my msql version to the latest ? [21:58] nevermind. I think I understand now. What happens if the only OS on the computer is Windows 8.1, though? Linux can't utilizes what Windows uses for swap, correct? [21:58] *utilize [21:58] antonio_ try html5, first https://www.youtube.com/html5 [21:59] @monkeydust: what about videos on Facebook? [21:59] antonio_ i don't have FB, so can't say [22:02] Ok so I have a rather hard issues I'm dealing with. I recently unstinstalled the AMD Graphics Propitary Drivers as they were having issues with one of my programs. I then of course switched them out with the open source alternitve from the drivers and update menu now after a reboot the PC starts to boot and then my screen goes into sleep but the OS itself continues on to the login screen (I know because of audio). How would I [22:02] Jordan_U. I think you may have missed my last message. [22:03] Sorry. I replied kind of late and didn't ping you. [22:04] Can I take a wifi driver from a Mint 14 live cd/ install and use it on Ubuntu 14.04? [22:05] Mint's rtl8180 driver gives me upto 1mb/s downloads. Ubuntu's barely even connects [22:05] MistaHezakiah: No, not with support here, if it is in mint it's in the ubuntu repos [22:06] I'm clueless when it comes to installing new drivers on linux. [22:07] Anyone know why the date display on my desktop stopped working? It's really annoying. If I need to see what the date is, I have to open a terminal and type "date". In the top-right of my desktop, it shows the time, and when I right-click, and tell it to show the date, it crashes entirely. [22:08] MistaHezakiah: Here, the hardware and what you have done is helpful, concise and in single paragraphs if possible, you're in the right place. [22:08] I've found that I can bring it back with this: dconf reset -f /com/canonical/indicator/datetime/ [22:08] wad glad I could help [22:08] * wad loooks around for the help.... [22:09] hey. Im conducting a ping sweep on my lan, and would like to know why isnt nmap sending any probe to my own machine? it sends packets to all others [22:09] wad: Hmm do we guess the desktop and release? [22:09] Oh yeah, sorry. [22:09] maybe he/she's busy. Anyone else have an idea?

I was using rtl8180 on Mint which worked great. Now I can barely connect. [22:11] Is there a logfile somewhere that migth have clues in it? [22:11] nehzah, eh, I don't know of any local Ubuntuologists. [22:11] :P [22:12] you have the whole web [22:12] nehzah I tried ndiswrapper which the XP driver which gave me warnings on boot and disabled wifi completely until I purged it [22:12] with* [22:12] MistaHezakiah: I can't help you in this, I have never had to mess with this. [22:12] doesntmatter: It won't do a ping sweep on your own machine as it defaults to skipping 127.0.0.1 (localhost). Pinging yourself is generally pointless in and of itself anyways because you will always get a connection (even if your firewall is set to block everyport) [22:12] nehzah Okay, thanks anyway [22:13] im testing my firewall against those kinds of attacks :)) [22:14] i dont want ppl to know that im alive :) [22:14] how can i make it non -default and scan my ip? [22:14] * nehzah hands out the tinfoil [22:14] MiniFridge: Correct, the Ubuntu LiveCD/USB will not try to (or be able to even if you were trying) use the space that Windows uses for swap. === xPCNP is now known as xPCNP_ [22:16] Unfortantly 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) [22:17] oh i see [22:17] :/ [22:17] tankerkiller125: in theory he can set up a VM with Bridged Mode, let it masquerade as another computer on the network (no guarantees that will work). Definitely a pain to do for a simple test though. [22:17] nehzah, exactly why I'm here. Lol./ [22:17] hehe yes its painfule :) [22:18] nevermind so ill just ignore this correct? [22:18] teward: I would agee with that statment. And deffinitly no garantees. [22:18] Jordan_U, so, if I'm performing operations on an Ubunu based machine, I will just do the command you said. [22:18] MiniFridge: Correct. [22:18] it must be workign though [22:18] :) [22:18] the rule is there anyway [22:19] Jordan_U, also, what happens if the live session runs out of RAM and can not mount the swap partition, will I get a kernel panic? [22:19] hi [22:19] thanks [22:20] MistaHezakiah: check for available drivers in software-properties [22:20] so I broke my X, I have no errors @ /var/log/Xorg.0.log, but the behaviour is weird, because lightdm runs but when I insert my pass, I get again to the login again [22:20] Under additional drivers? Did that, only nvidia drivers are there [22:20] MistaHezakiah: if there's nothing matching there, try a backported kernel instead [22:20] I'm using intel drivers, MB integrated graphics card [22:20] MiniFridge: No, the kernel will use the OOM killer to start killing processes to free RAM. [22:21] I have explicitly glx and dri disabled at /etc/X11/Xorg.conf [22:21] I've tried reinstalling xserver and intel drivers with apt-get install --reinstall [22:22] razieliyo: try just moving /etc/X11/Xorg.conf to /etc/X11/Xorg.conf.orig and retstart lightdm [22:22] Jordan_U, okay. Thank you. [22:22] Ok I have a very very odd issue.... Attempting to boot my PC for like the past hour has display a "starting version 219" error and got no further. However I just plugged in a random USB and suddenly it booted. Is this just a weird bug? [22:22] tomreyn: I've tried that too, I get some errors with that, that's why I have my xorg modified :/ [22:22] tomreyn: anyway, let me try again [22:23] That answers all my questions. [22:23] razieliyo: what are the errors you get there, post to a pastebin once you're realy [22:23] I appreciate it, bye. [22:23] *ready [22:24] tomreyn: I'll try, I'm at console right now, but I think I'll be able to do it with vim [22:24] I'm using links as web browser [22:26] o.o [22:27] tomreyn: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19190625/Xorg.0.log [22:27] razieliyo: Error (404) [22:28] tomreyn: sorry, I'm writing it by hand, let me double check it [22:28] you most likely missed some ID there [22:29] you could use "pastebinit" instead, this returns shortler urls [22:29] tomreyn: I tried, but can't get where pastebin paste zone is from links (cli web browser) [22:30] you dont need to use links for it. pastebinit will paste andthing piped into it to a pastebin [22:30] it's a package / client [22:30] oh you mean there's an app?

[22:32] tomreyn: as you can see, there's some glx errors, that's why I overrided the xorg.conf [22:32] I cannot seem to figure out what's causing the issues. Tried downgrading several packages. [22:33] razieliyo: 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] hmmm [22:33] how in the world? let me check sources.list [22:33] Anyhow, what was going on earlier - it seems Compiz, Unity, and hardware acceleration don't load up. [22:33] razieliyo: (apt-get update; apt-get policy) | pastebinit [22:34] Any ideas to pinpoint the cause? [22:34] MikeRL: 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] actually, I have one more question, when in the busybox, what does "exit" do? [22:35] Well, as for that, I thought I could troubleshoot myself so initially I just asked for a way to check apt history. [22:35] tomreyn: apt-get policy doesn't exist here, but I just checked sources.list and all repos are trusty [22:35] That didn't work. My issue is the desktop GUI isn't loading. [22:35] Well, I get the desktop, but no window decorations, no launcher, no menu bar, and no hardware acceleration.

Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) [22:36] razieliyo: sorry, my bad, it's "apt-cache policy" [22:36] tomreyn: oh, np! thanks! [22:36] I typed "exit" and apparently it started doing things like creating a swap partition [22:36] That bot is noob proof. [22:37] It's sentient [22:37] But I can click on the desktop icons and the wallpaper and cursor show. [22:37] tomreyn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11796023 [22:38] tomreyn: 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 checked [22:38] And also, when loading unity from the terminal via unity --replace, I get an OpenGL wrote [22:38] *wrote > error. [22:39] When I say error, I mean the OpenGL plugin for Compiz won't load. [22:39] razieliyo: i found the same, but also indication that it's only happening when mixing stuff. but i can be wrong. [22:39] razieliyo: for sure you have a bunch of PPAs there [22:39] tomreyn: I see [22:40] tomreyn: haha yes [22:40] tomreyn: well, I really don't care for glx, tbh [22:40] And 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] I just need this working to work tomorrow :/ and really desperate (I guess this is a common statement) [22:40] razieliyo: one if the PPAs might provide a newer intel driver or xorg than what ubuntu has, introducing the incompatibility / bug [22:40] that's why I overrided everythng [22:41] Also cannot bring up the dash, but I can bring up virtual terminals (CTRL+ALT+Fx) [22:41] tomreyn: yep, maybe, I could remove all ppas, but don't know if that would suffice [22:41] Ok new problem [22:41] razieliyo: dpkg -l xserver-xorg\* linux-image\* | grep ^i | pastebinit [22:42] tomreyn: thanks! 1 sec [22:42] razieliyo: first let's see whether my hypothesis is actually correct [22:42] razieliyo: i.e. we'll check which package versions you have installed [22:42] i have trouble with a realtek ethernet driver, I wonder if someone could help me out? [22:43] how do I transparent proxy SSL? [22:43] I don't want it to open the certificate, just redirect the traffic. Without using iptables [22:43] the wifi card is the R8101E, i installed the driver from the realtek website, ethernet works, but wifi doesn't even show up [22:43] tomreyn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11796045 [22:44] Ok 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] So, 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] tomreyn: hmmm that utopic package... [22:44] I might also add that I can't get to any of the terminals (there blank black screens) [22:45] Windows 10 is going to get upset at me if it boots up and there's certificate errors from sslsplit [22:47] tomreyn: 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 GLX [22:47] I think = I'm 99.99% sure === Vovvy is now known as PricnessOddihs [22:48] tomreyn: more info, I think this started to screw up when I did: sudo startx -- -extension GLX [22:49] razieliyo: 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 one [22:49] Hello [22:50] tomreyn: ok, so that may be the error then? I think I'll go with trusty kernel to avoid version mismatching [22:50] tomreyn: really, from start to here, THANK YOU, I'll tell you what happens [22:51] razieliyo: i'm looking for more hints to give you if you want to wait a bit more [22:51] tomreyn: ok, np, I still have time [22:51] razieliyo: or you could downgrade and return if it doesnt help [22:51] tomreyn: I can downgrade, I think that won't hurt === PricnessOddihs is now known as Vovvy [22:52] tomreyn: installing linux-image-generic-lts-trusty === Vovvy is now known as HomeCats [22:53] tomreyn: rebooting, give me 20 secs [22:55] tomreyn: I was not prompted to select a kernel image, will try to guess which button was it to force a select [22:56] razieliyo: shift or esc [22:56] to see grub [22:56] nehzah: thanks! [22:56] np [22:57] nehzah: thank you! that's what I was looking for [22:57] Wait guys [22:57] I think I may have fixed it. [22:57] Going to reboot and hope for the best. [22:58] If I'm lucky it was just a random screw-up. [22:58] tomreyn: nothing :/ [22:59] razieliyo: which linux verison are you running now? cat /proc/version [22:59] tomreyn: 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 up [22:59] tomreyn: on my way [22:59] I fixed it. [22:59] Yay! [23:00] tomreyn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11796121 [23:00] razieliyo: graphics acceleration (both 2d and 4d) is enabled by default with intel drivers. there's nothing you need to do manually [23:00] MikeRL: unity is a bit funky, if you mess with configs a reboot maybe needed, sometimes two. [23:01] or restarts..etc [23:01] tomreyn: oh, ok, I just had a "glx not found" error when trying to run a (recompiled) opengl app, so thought on that [23:02] razieliyo: when you say "nothing" you mean you still got the same error message in Xorg.*.log ? [23:03] tomreyn: yes, just checked it [23:04] tomreyn: AIGLX errors, the same as before [23:05] tomreyn: it seems there's some i965-va-driver, do you think that may help? === ari_ is now known as ari__ [23:05] Hello all [23:06] I have a asus netbook 1201k with SIS GPU [23:06] I've installed Ubuntu 15.04 i386 [23:06] tittan: Try to get this all in one post [23:07] but the graphics are trully slow and poor.

[23:08] razieliyo: 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 packages [23:09] does anyone experience with old sis gpu and Xorg? Or do I switch to vesa graphics? [23:09] tomreyn: yes, it's kinda weird, as you checked with pastebins, it seems everything is correct :/ [23:09] razieliyo: 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 PPA [23:10] Hey 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'. after [23:10] tomreyn: I'm rebooting and pray (fingers crossed) \()// if that doesn't work, I'll try to install those [23:10] or at the end of the file? [23:11] Geo2b2: man wget in the terminal may help [23:16] it's late, i'm off to bed, please tell razieliyo so if he comes around asking for me. [23:17] nehzah, i did, that's how i found out the -P command, but i can't find out which way around to put the commands [23:17] tittan: There just is not much support from SIS for their drivers.

[23:18] Help, I reinstalled Ubuntu and now when I try to copy files to external USB drives, I see the files on the drives but have permissions errors copying to them. It seems it might be a format issue [23:18] it shouldn't be far up, dumb me I didn't noted it [23:19] or maybe its about my user not being a member of some permissions group [23:19] razieliyo, razieliyo: 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 PPA [23:20] I get an error where I have to enter master password just to *eject* the USB flash drive [23:20] squinty: thanks!

[23:26] Ubuntu bug 1432171 in systemd (Ubuntu) "[udev] Shows "starting version 219" boot message even with "quiet"" [Low,Fix released] [23:26] wolftune: Can't say usbmount is the issue, not installed here, and gparted should set permissions correctly. [23:27] fat as read write anyway [23:27] nehzah: the point is I *have* it installed and the post said to *remove* it [23:27] tittan, typically there is no xorg.conf in modern linux. if you need one, it goes in /etc/X11 [23:28] wolftune: post from 2011, seems similiar but one of biliions and billions of webpages. [23:28] can anyone tell me why my gnome terminal doesn't start up with the correct colors? it loads up, then i have to go into the settings and deslect and reselect use colors from system theme [23:29] tittan: Severfal xorg.conf files here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=958967 . [23:29] wolftune: Your choice to remove, that sort of link witout any context from you is a bit of a red flag is all. [23:29] Should I symlink, ServerAlias or do something else with the CMS directory to make it available from each DocumentRoot. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31042543 [23:29] nehzah: yeah, so I'm hesitant [23:30] wolftune: How is the usb mounted and do you have a desktop? [23:31] just mounts from being plugged in or commands? wolftune [23:31] or fstab [23:31] okay, 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] this mounting is just being plugged in [23:32] wolftune: You going to root at any point? [23:32] nehzah: no, I'm just running the normal system and plugging this in [23:34] wolftune: 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] nehzah: that's okay thanks anyway [23:36] anyone else? problem is: USB drives mount as root instead of within /media/user/ [23:43] Anyone 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? [23:44] nehzah: removing usbmount fixed it! [23:48] maybe 14:10 === UltimateNate is now known as Guest4960 [23:52] question: are there any commandline tools out there what can chop up audio files during pauses? [23:52] e.g. say I record a bunch of sentences in mp3, can I somehow split them up? [23:53] guys, I'm getting an error when doing tail -F *log in a log directory... too many files open. How do I fix it? [23:55] akurilin: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man1/mp3splt.1.html Check '-s' Silence mode [23:56] ubuntu 12.04 [23:56] minimec:thank you! [23:56] now I can't do hexdump -C *log :( [23:56] DoYouKnow: I can believe that . the wildcard character ,*, expands to any file ending in log. Try to be the more specific with the log you are tailing . [23:57] ok [23:57] helllo [23:58] u hi [23:58] Bashing-om: I think this program hosed my system since it creates one file per ip address
