[00:00] <TJ-> publio: Really? That suggests the reinstalled linux-image packages had an issue then, because they contain the kernel modules
[00:00] <publio> live-mods: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11828605/ system-mods: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11828608/
[00:01] <publio> TJ-:  Missing tons.
[00:01] <TJ-> publio: OHHHHHHhhhhh you're on 14.04 ... you also need the "linux-image-extra-<version>-generic packages!!!!
[00:01] <TJ-> publio: chroot!!! Then "apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-extra-3.13.0-{54,55}-generic"
[00:02] <publio> TJ-: right!
[00:02] <Guest8237> I created an upstart script `/etc/init/start_flask.conf`.  When i do `init-checkconf /etc/init/start_flask.conf`, I get "File /etc/init/start_flask.conf: syntax ok".  But, if I manually do `sudo service start_flask start`, i get "start: job failed to start"
[00:02] <TJ-> publio: No wonder !$£L%)£$%)(%
[00:02] <Guest8237> start_flask.conf: https://bpaste.net/show/f84e894ff4f0
[00:02] <Guest8237> so, have i defined `start on` incorrectly?
[00:02] <Guest8237> i am able to manually run `python /vagrant/app.py`
[00:03] <publio> TJ-: heh, feeling warmer now at least
[00:03] <OerHeks> Zebra111, known issue, there is a detection if keyboard and touchpad/mouse are used simultaneously http://askubuntu.com/questions/618086/my-mouse-and-keyboard-dont-work-together-in-ubuntu
[00:03] <TJ-> publio: I'm not sure that installing those packages triggers an update-initramfs so if you don't see the initrd mentioned by apt-get ... you do it yourself manually .... again.... with "-u -k all"
[00:03] <TJ-> publio: I think those changes are the last you need to get back to full functionality
[00:04] <TJ-> publio: FYI: each kernel version installs its loadable modules under "/lib/modules/<version>/"
[00:05] <TJ-> publio: to check on that directory for a running kernel we usually do this: "ls -l /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/"  --- 'uname -r' returns the kernel version, as in '3.13.0-55-generic'
[00:05] <publio> TJ-: Thanks, I'll write that down.  Another good reason to keep backup kernels it seems
[00:06] <publio> huh, my livecd is 3.16.0-30-generic -- higher than my installed, updated system
[00:07] <TJ-> publio: you may also need to do the same for the "linux-headers-<version>-generic" packages
[00:07] <publio> TJ-: It generated a grub config file for both runs, but I forgot what we wanted to see for the initramfs, should I run that to be sure?
[00:07] <Zebra111> OerHeks: thanks for the related question. Unfortunately the steps used to try to solve the problem don't work. However, I'll use that question as a basepoint when looking for solutions
[00:08] <TJ-> publio: Yes, that was what I was on about earlier. The Live Env kernel looks like 14.10
[00:08] <TJ-> publio: We wanted to see the initrd was being updated
[00:08] <publio> update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-55-generic
[00:08] <publio> nevermind
[00:08] <TJ-> publio: if you saw no mention of it then "update-initramfs -u -k all"
[00:09] <TJ-> publio: OK ... so last thing is check these linux-headers-<version>-generic packages are there too
[00:09] <TJ-> publio:  "apt-get --reinstall install linux-headers-3.13.0-{54,55}-generic"
[00:09] <publio> well they are visible in dpkg
[00:09] <publio> I'll reinstall to be sure, I guess?
[00:11] <TJ-> publio: Best to after everything that has happened. dpkg saying it knows about the packages doesn't guarantee the files are there
[00:11] <publio> TJ-: all done!
[00:13] <publio> TJ-: I'll restart and check back
[00:14] <publio> looks like /boot/initrd files have grown to 29M i think?
[00:17] <publio> TJ-: Everything works! :)
[00:17] <TJ-> publio: Finally !
[00:17] <publio> heh, ikr
[00:17] <TJ-> publio: I knew there was something strange about the smaller initrd.img but missed the implication that linux-image-extra was missing
[00:17] <publio> at least I learned a few things about the boot process and mounting
[00:18] <publio> I don't think its the same as it was before
[00:18] <publio> TJ-: I'm missing the kernel driver vboxdrv.  VirtualBox recommends running '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' to fix
[00:18] <TJ-> publio: probably not exactly. you might find some other issues over the next day or so, hopefully nothing critical now
[00:19] <TJ-> publio: is it built by DKMS?
[00:19] <publio> TJ-: oh yes, at least I can fix on th system, which is much easier and low priority
[00:19] <publio> TJ-: I don't knoww hat that means?
[00:19] <TJ-> publio: Dynamic Kernel Module (build) System
[00:19] <publio> well I know the name now, but not the implications
[00:19] <publio> yae
[00:20] <publio> yea*
[00:20] <TJ-> publio: Look under "ls /var/lib/dkms/" do you see any sub-dir with 'vbox' in its name
[00:20] <publio> TJ-: just a  dkms_dbversion file with a 2.0.0 inside of it
[00:21] <TJ-> publio: OK, use the command you saw mentioned then
[00:21] <TJ-> publio: I thought the vbox kernel module might be installed by DKMS
[00:21] <publio> TJ-: I thought Id check the file before running, but the dir vboxdrv doesn't exists.  There's a virtualbox dir tho
[00:22] <publio> TJ-: script, excuse me
[00:22] <TJ-> publio: maybe thats another package needs installing?
[00:22] <roberto> hola
[00:23] <TJ-> publio: do "apt-cache search -n virtualbox"   that indicates there a a few packages... the -dkms is the one I'm thinking you need for the kernel module, if you installed VBox from package management
[00:23] <TJ-> publio: If you installed VBox manually then that doesn't apply
[00:24] <publio> TJ-: Yes there's this answer which suggests doing that: http://askubuntu.com/questions/205154/virtualbox-etc-init-d-vboxdrv-setup-issue
[00:25] <publio> TJ-: It works! talk about easy fix, after all of that chrooting around
[00:26] <publio> TJ-: '/lib/modules/3.13.0-55-generic/updates/dkms/'
[00:26] <publio> installtion dir
[00:29] <TJ-> publio: I use qemu-kvm (the in-kernel virtual machine hypervisor) rather than VirtualBox or VMware
[00:31] <publio> TJ-: Is that KVM? That's nice. Only trouble is that when using Windows over a remote desktop, even if its a local machine, makes it lag
[00:32] <TJ-> publio: Yes, that's due to the virtualised GPU meaning no hardware acceleration, although that is changing recently
[00:34] <publio> TJ-: It'll be good to have greater alternatives.  I think VMware is the best, but a little pricey
[01:18] <wonko> I setup apt-mirror to download 64-bit trusty
[01:18] <wonko> It nicely downloaded 78.9GB of stuff
[01:19] <wonko> but now, every time I run apt-mirror, even if I do so imediately after the last run finished, it *always* downloads 908.3MB of stuff.
[01:19] <wonko> what's going on here that it doesn't seem to actually be downloading these bits? (I'm assuming that's what's wrong?)
[01:20] <TJ-> wonko: That's probably the release lists
[01:20] <Starthunder> !lightdm
[01:20] <Starthunder> !dm
[01:21] <wonko> TJ-: the release lists are almost a gig in size?
[01:22] <Starthunder> I installed and then uninstalled ubuntu-restricted-extras while trying to get Flash to work, and now lightdm seems to be broken. A lot of text and buttons and such are just missing, and I can't see enough to log in.
[01:32] <owen1> why do i get Unable to locate package libstdc++6? https://github.com/oren/docker-nativescript/blob/master/Dockerfile#L6  (I have libstdc++6:i386)
[01:32] <owen1> (ubuntu 14.04)
[01:36] <OerHeks> maybe lib32stdc++6 is the 32 bit version of libstdc++6   ?
[01:38] <OerHeks> no " Unable to locate package libstdc++6" makes no sense as you say you have it already ..
[01:39] <owen1> OerHeks:sorry. i don't have it already
[01:42] <Pinkamena_D> Does anyone know if it is possible to enable the wifi activity led. According to this thread it is possible in windows: http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=111106
[01:42] <Pinkamena_D> Someone asks about linux but there does not seem to be a relevant reply.
[01:52] <pspforever1> hello I need some help.
[01:53] <pspforever1> Anyone interested in helping me?
[01:53] <pspforever1> Can someone help me?
[01:53] <OerHeks> pspforever1, ask, wait and see
[01:55] <pspforever1> Hey everyone here is my problem. I turn on my computer and it directs me to the boot menu. I enter Regular Ubuntu and freezes on a purple screen. It will not even allow me to boot into any other mode. Can someone help?
[01:55] <codepython777> where can i get help with reading usb gps data on linux?
[01:55] <NegativeFlare> pspforever1: Driver issue?
[01:56] <pspforever1> I have no clue. @NegativeFlare
[01:56] <NegativeFlare> pspforever1: I mean, it sounds like a driver issue
[01:56] <NegativeFlare> GPU to be specific
[01:56] <pspforever1> It was working fine just the other day, been using ubunto for years now.
[01:57] <pspforever1> @NegativeFlare, When I google this problem that seem to be an occuring theme with this issue.
[01:57] <NegativeFlare> pspforever1: did you upgrade your driver or kernel lately?
[01:57] <pspforever1> @NegativeFlare, There were some updates but they did not all work.
[01:57] <NegativeFlare> uh oh
[01:57] <TJ-> pspforever1: have you tried using the Recovery option from the GRUB Advanced boot sub-menu?
[01:57] <pspforever1> I have been having update issues as well lately.
[01:57] <pspforever1> @TJ-, yes, it doesn't work.
[01:57] <NegativeFlare> pspforever1: that's really not good, you might have broken it
[01:58] <pspforever1> @NegativeFlare, it seems that way.
[01:58] <pspforever1> lol
[01:58] <NegativeFlare> pspforever1: you don't have to do the @ sign
[01:58] <pspforever1> Okay.
[01:58] <NegativeFlare> just highlight me, its not that hard :P
[01:58] <pspforever1> got it.
[01:58] <TJ-> pspforever1: Recovery doesn't use a splash screen it shows the kernel text messages as things start; at what point does it stop, can you take a photo of the screen if there are message displayed and upload it to http://imgur.com ?
[01:59] <pspforever1> Ok sure, let me try. Give me a couple minutes here.
[01:59] <TJ-> pspforever1: E.g. There may have been a kernel Panic.  Have you tried booting into an older kernel in the Advanced sub-menu ... that can be a way around a problem with a recent kernel update
[02:00] <insane> insanity
[02:04] <pspforever1> I took a few photo's, not sure they turned out so well.
[02:05] <insane> how to join here?
[02:05] <insane> am i connected?
[02:05] <NegativeFlare> insane: your already here
[02:05] <NegativeFlare> yes
[02:05] <NegativeFlare> lol
[02:05] <insane> damn! this just had me confused
[02:05] <NegativeFlare> insane: What can we help you with?
[02:05] <NegativeFlare> Also, watch the language, we're rated "G" here.
[02:06] <insane> im totally new trying ubuntu
[02:06] <insane> G?
[02:06] <TJ-> Goofy?
[02:06] <pspforever1> there's one part where it says: VFS: Cannot open root device "mapper/ubuntu--vg-root" or known-block(0,0) : error -6
[02:06] <NegativeFlare> insane: Family Friendly
[02:06] <insane> okay
[02:06] <insane> sounds cool
[02:06] <x3464> Anyone know when Firefox 39 will makes its way into the repos?
[02:07] <pspforever1> Please append a corret "root=" boot option; here are the available partions:
[02:07] <insane> so you just ask questions here directly?
[02:07] <pspforever1> Kernel panic
[02:07] <NegativeFlare> insane: just ask :P
[02:07] <pspforever1> Sorry for all that spam guys
[02:07] <TJ-> pspforever1: OK, that is very helpful; we solved an issue like that for someone else earlier. There are several causes, and all require the system be booted from a Live ISO of the same architecture (amd64 64-bit if the installed system uses that, i386 if its a 32-bit install)
[02:08] <insane> How do i enable workspaces?
[02:08] <mridul> Any suggestions/feedback on Ubuntu Mate?
[02:08] <Johnny_Linux> great
[02:08] <NegativeFlare> mridul: Ubuntu Mate is awesome
[02:09] <Patero> hello i want to move a folder to another folder and makes those source files get into that folder I used to use mv command but I forgot the switch can someone give me a hand
[02:09] <pspforever1> okay, so how do I do that?
[02:09] <TJ-> pspforever1: Have you tried to boot it from an older kernel version listed in the GRUB Advanced sub-menu?
[02:09] <x3464> Ubuntu Mate is good.  Would be better if the improved performance a little bit though.
[02:09] <pspforever1> How do I get to the advanced sub menu?
[02:09] <insane> what is ubuntu mate?
[02:09] <Johnny_Linux> buy a real processor
[02:10] <insane> what is LGA2011 architecture?
[02:11] <TJ-> pspforever1: hold down the Shift key as the PC boots to show the GRUB boot menu... usually the 2nd Item is "Advanced ..." choose that and it takes you to a sub-menu with the Recovery option and older kernel versions listed. Try botting one of the older kernels
[02:11] <insane> regarding [rocessors
[02:11] <insane> preocessors
[02:11] <x3464> Anyone know when Firefox 39 will makes its way into the repos?  It has been released for a few days and usually shows up in the repos by now.
[02:11] <TJ-> insane: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGA_2011
[02:12] <pspforever1> TJ It automatically brings me to the GRUB menu each time I start my computer now.
[02:12] <TJ-> x3464: It's in the PPAs already so should move over soonish
[02:12] <insane> i thought these are all bots talking to each other!
[02:12] <pspforever1> Is there a version I should choose specifically? Do I try them all?
[02:12] <OerHeks> x3464, only in wily https://launchpad.net/firefox they must have a reason
[02:13] <TJ-> pspforever1: OK, that's because the boot failed. It keeps a flag to know if the last boot was good or not. You can navigate to one of the old kernel versions from there easily
[02:13] <TJ-> pspforever1: If there was a recent update try the one previous to it ... they're usually listed in pairs: the GUI boot followed by the Recovery boot for each version
[02:14] <pspforever1> @TJ holy crap what just happened. I tried the oldest version and something new happened. Somethings working.
[02:14] <pspforever1> okay
[02:14] <pspforever1> Recovery menu!
[02:14] <pspforever1> this is new to me.
[02:14] <pspforever1> you are a saint.
[02:14] <TJ-> pspforever1: Cool... with luck you can boot it to the old version, and we can go about finding out what the problem is with the latest installed kernel
[02:14] <pspforever1> Alright, let's do that.
[02:15] <pspforever1> Do I just hit resume normal boot?
[02:15] <TJ-> pspforever1: I'd suggest you reboot it, and choose the same kernel version again but use the GUI y not the Recovery entry
[02:15] <TJ-> pspforever1: That way you have all the familiar interfaces to work with
[02:15] <TJ-> pspforever1: yes, you can hit resume too
[02:16] <mridul> Ubuntu MATE or Ubuntu XFCE?
[02:16] <pspforever1> okay.. pressed it
[02:16] <TJ-> pspforever1: you should go through to the usual GUI log-in and then your user desktop now
[02:17] <pspforever1> okay I'm at my desktop now haha awesome, okay what do we do next.
[02:17] <pspforever1> all the icons are jumbo
[02:18] <TJ-> pspforever1: messed up you mean, or just the video resolution of the screen is low-res so everything appears bigger?
[02:18] <pspforever1> yeah
[02:18] <pspforever1> so what do we do next?
[02:18] <TJ-> pspforever1: You're using Ubuntu with Unity?
[02:18] <pspforever1> Im not sure
[02:19] <TJ-> pspforever1: If it's Ubuntu not Kubuntu or Xubuntu or Lubuntu or whatever!
[02:19] <pspforever1> yes, it is just plain ubuntu
[02:19] <pspforever1> there is a crash report
[02:19] <TJ-> pspforever1: Start a terminal... you can type "Terminal" into the dash search box or press Ctrl+Alt+T I think
[02:20] <TJ-> pspforever1: tell it not to submit the report, and dismiss it
[02:20] <pspforever1> ok
[02:20] <pspforever1> Terminal is up.
[02:22] <TJ-> pspforever1: first we'll check that the file-systems aren't running out of space. I'm going to give you commands that will automatically send their output to a pastebin. All you need do is run the command exactly as I show it, and then give us the URL you see returned
[02:22] <TJ-> pspforever1: "pastebinit <(df)"
[02:23] <pspforever1> I am out of space
[02:23] <TJ-> pspforever1: thought that might be it... this is an easy one to fix.
[02:23] <pspforever1> okay I entered it in. nothing happened
[02:24] <TJ-> pspforever1: that command should return a http:// ... URL
[02:24] <pspforever1> nope
[02:24] <pspforever1> one space or two space?
[02:24] <TJ-> pspforever1: "type pastebinit"  (yes, the command to type is 'type' !)
[02:25] <TJ-> pspforever1: you should be able to copy-paste these commands to the terminal, I'm typing them exactly
[02:25] <pspforever1> ok I didn't type that before
[02:26] <TJ-> pspforever1: you put everything into the terminal that I put between double quotes
[02:26] <pspforever1> so I type this   "Type pastebinit <(df)"  ?
[02:26] <TJ-> pspforever1: No, just: "pastebinit <(df)"
[02:26] <pspforever1> one space?
[02:27] <pspforever1> nothing's happening
[02:27] <pspforever1> okay
[02:27] <pspforever1> got something
[02:27] <TJ-> This is what should happen:
[02:27] <pspforever1> I need to install it
[02:27] <TJ-> $ pastebinit <(df)
[02:27] <TJ-> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829047/
[02:27] <pspforever1> It says it's not installed
[02:27] <TJ-> pspforever1: Ahhh... ok, "sudo apt-get install pastebinit"
[02:28] <pspforever1> ok
[02:29] <Flannel> TJ-: You may have more luck with termbin (that can be used with netcat) (http://termbin.com/)
[02:29] <pspforever1> I installed it, it sayed it could not be located
[02:30] <TJ-> pspforever1: OK, let's use an alternative instead to save messing about.
[02:30] <pspforever1> permission deined?
[02:30] <pspforever1> ok
[02:30] <pspforever1> termbin it is then.
[02:30] <TJ-> pspforever1: type this: "exec 9<>/dev/tcp/termbin.com/9999"
[02:32] <pspforever1> uhmmmmm
[02:32] <pspforever1> nothing happened.
[02:33] <TJ-> pspforever1: that's exactly what we wanted :)
[02:33] <pspforever1> okay
[02:33] <pspforever1> im installing it again it seems this time it worked
[02:34] <pspforever1> got some errors tho
[02:35] <TJ-> pspforever1: pastebinit you mean?
[02:35] <pspforever1> yeah
[02:35] <pspforever1> gzip: no sapce left on device
[02:35] <TJ-> pspforever1: uhoh
[02:36] <TJ-> pspforever1: OK, let's try: "df | nc termbin.com 9999"
[02:36] <pspforever1> wait man
[02:36] <pspforever1>  I got something
[02:36] <pspforever1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829078/
[02:38] <TJ-> pspforever1: OK, as I thought, /boot/ ran out of space when the kernel update was installed, leaving a partial config
[02:38] <pspforever1> dang
[02:38] <pspforever1> think we can fix this?
[02:38] <TJ-> pspforever1: "pastebinit  <( dpkg  -l  'linux*' )"
[02:38] <pspforever1> you are a master genius btw
[02:39] <TJ-> pspforever1: the solution is simply to remove the oldest kernel versions and leave just 2 or 3 most recent, and then regenerate the kernel and initrd.img for the latest kernel
[02:39] <owen1> TJ-: what's () do?
[02:40] <owen1> i know $() execute a command
[02:40] <TJ-> owen1: process redirection... runs the command and pipes its output through a file-descriptor which any program can open just like a file-name
[02:41] <owen1> TJ-: isn't < do the redirection?
[02:41] <pspforever1> I typed in the command, it says: Options marked [*] produce a lot of output - pipe it through 'less' or 'more' !
[02:41] <owen1> i never seen () like that
[02:41] <TJ-> owen1: I write the commands this way rather than .... | pastebinit because it's clear that we want the user to focus on the 'pastebinit' tool
[02:41] <owen1> usualy i see $(foo bar)
[02:41] <TJ-> pspforever1: "pastebinit  <( dpkg  -l  'linux*' )"   - that will let me see it
[02:42] <pspforever1> it said permission deinied
[02:42] <TJ-> owen1: $() simply replaces the output from the command inside it, like using a shell variable would
[02:42] <TJ-> pspforever1: Are you typing it, or copy-pasting it?
[02:42] <pspforever1> typing it
[02:43] <pspforever1> im on here with my laptop
[02:43] <Spark010> I think you need to use it as : sudo command
[02:43] <TJ-> try copy-pasting because I think you're introducing errors somehow
[02:43] <TJ-> Spark010: neither of those commands should need sudo
[02:44] <TJ-> pspforever1: this is it working for me:
[02:44] <TJ-> $ pastebinit <( dpkg -l 'linux*' )
[02:44] <TJ-> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829093/
[02:46] <pspforever1> i need to get this irc on my computer
[02:46] <pspforever1> so I can copy paste right in
[02:46] <TJ-> pspforever1: yes, how about "sudo apt-get install hexchat" ?
[02:47] <pspforever1> ok thanks
[02:48] <pspforever1> how do I get into this chat?
[02:48] <TJ-> pspforever1: Choose the Network Server "Freenode"
[02:49] <pspforever1> ok
[02:49] <pspforever1> connection complete
[02:49] <pspforever1> do I enter in #ubuntu ?
[02:50] <Spark010> Yup
[02:50] <TJ-> pspforever1: Yes, "/join #ubuntu"
[02:50] <pspforever1> cool
[02:50] <Pspforever2> okay what's the pastebinit command?
[02:50] <TJ-> Pspforever2:  do " pastebinit <( dpkg -l 'linux*' ) "
[02:51] <TJ-> pspforever1: I'd assumed you were using the same PC that has the fault, sorry about that
[02:51] <Pspforever2> Okay so this happens now http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829111/
[02:51] <TJ-> brb ... putting the coffee pot on to keep me awake
[02:51] <Pspforever2> How about I give you some money when we finish this.
[02:51] <TJ-> Pspforever2: what does "uname -a" report?
[02:52] <TJ-> Pspforever2:  this is so we don't try to remove the kernel version that is running!
[02:53] <Pspforever2> 3.13.0-35-generic #62-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 15 01:58:42 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[02:53] <codepython777> what exactly does this command do : "stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 ispeed 4800"?
[02:54] <Pspforever2> says "no such file or directory"
[02:55] <TJ-> Pspforever2: OK, so we keep -35 but we can remove many of the others
[02:55] <Pspforever2> ok
[02:56] <Spark010> I need some help mapping my mediakeys on an ubuntu-minimal. I tryed. The xfce4-volumed pakage, but it cannot bind the keys. And i am running no polkit on i3wm . I got the scanlines i need to remap but this is where i am stuck... how to remap those
[02:56] <TJ-> Pspforever2: "sudo apt-get purge linux-image-{,extra}-3.13.0-{32,34,36,37}-generic"
[02:57] <Schwarzbaer> Hi. I'm encountering the most interesting problem. Every program but the dock has started to accept mouse click input.
[02:57] <Pspforever2> Okay, done.
[02:57] <Schwarzbaer> How do I even go about finding out what the problem is here?
[02:58] <TJ-> Pspforever2: now "sudo apt-get purge linux-headers-3.13.0-{36,37,39}-{,generic}"
[02:59] <pspforever1> ok
[02:59] <TJ-> Pspforever2: and then "sudo apt-get purge linux-signed-image-3.13.0-{34,36,37,39}-generic"
[03:00] <TJ-> Pspforever2: then lets' check on disk space again with "pastebinit <( df )"
[03:00] <pspforever1> ok
[03:00] <pspforever1> dude if this works im giving you 20 bucks
[03:01] <pspforever1> i dont have a lot of money
[03:01] <pspforever1> okay done
[03:01] <pspforever1> now what
[03:01] <TJ-> Pspforever2: you need to show us the pastebin URL from that last command :)
[03:01] <pspforever1> ok
[03:01] <mikubuntu> strange thing happening wonder if anyone could help me out -- my video play has been sticky lately and i don't know why -- just did a speedtest and showing 35 mbps downspeed, but i can see on the video indicators that they are downloading more slowly than the play speed.
[03:01] <pspforever1> pastebinit >(df) ? ?
[03:02] <TJ-> Pspforever2: "pastebinit <( df )"
[03:02] <Pspforever2> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829145/
[03:03] <Spark010> mikubuntu:  it must be the servers speed.  Sometimes they can't keep up with demand
[03:03] <TJ-> Pspforever2: still not a lot of spare, we need to work some more on that
[03:03] <TJ-> Pspforever2: "pastebinit <( ls -latr )"
[03:03] <marchesini> mikubuntu, try reinstall the video codec or the Spark010 is correct
[03:03] <mikubuntu> Spark010: yes i guess thats a good guess
[03:03] <Pspforever2> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829149/
[03:04] <marchesini> run "pastebinit<(lspci)"
[03:04] <mikubuntu> marchesini: do you mean uninstall and reinstall 'restricted extras?'
[03:04] <TJ-> Pspforever2: ha! I gave you an incomplete command! lets try again "pastebinit <( ls -latr /boot/ )"
[03:04] <Pspforever2> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829154/
[03:05] <TJ-> marchesini: FYI "lspci -nn" is more useful - it reports the unique [Vendor:Product] IDs that drivers match against
[03:05] <marchesini> off course
[03:06] <TJ-> Pspforever2: that listing looks like the commands I gave you didn't work. There are files there should have been removed.
[03:06] <applebum> Pspforever2: (smalltalk) why do u have so many binaries of linux kernel in ur boot directory?
[03:07] <pspforever1> idk
[03:07] <marchesini> mikubuntu, run in terminal pastebinit<(lspci -nn)
[03:07] <TJ-> applebum: That's natural when the kernel updates don't get cleaned up
[03:08] <mikubuntu> marchesini: k gimme sec
[03:08] <TJ-> Pspforever2: Let's try again, one version of the kernel at a time. "sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image{,-extra}-3.13.0-36-generic"
[03:08] <applebum> pspforever1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels u will save good load of memory
[03:09] <pspforever1> thank you for this.
[03:10] <applebum> Btw removing the extra copy of kernel is really a fun thing to do on Fedora 22+ with dnf
[03:10] <pspforever1> wow still removing stuff from that last command
[03:10] <applebum> with the new package manager u can remove the running kernel
[03:10] <pspforever1> okay it finished.
[03:10] <applebum> :D
[03:10] <Bashing-om> TJ-: In the case of pspforever1 ; can we surmise that apt-get does not have the operation overhead ? And in the case of no head room maybe 'dpkg -P' ? ( for my info more or less ) .
[03:11] <mikubuntu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829173/ marchesini
[03:11] <TJ-> Pspforever2: Next one "sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image{,-extra}-3.13.0-37-generic"
[03:12] <pspforever1> ok
[03:12] <TJ-> Pspforever2: Next one "sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image{,-extra}-3.13.0-39-generic"
[03:13] <pspforever1> ok
[03:13] <TJ-> Pspforever2: lets check the directory again "pastebinit <( ls -latr /boot/ )"
[03:13] <Pspforever2> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829182/
[03:13] <TJ-> Bashing-om: I don't think there's much (any?) difference between apt-get and dpkg in the case of purge
[03:13] <TJ-> Pspforever2: once more: "pastebinit <( df )"
[03:14] <marchesini> yep, it always occurs? try running "htop" when running a video and see the processor throughput, it more likely is a software error or the hardware get hot when display video. check this
[03:14] <Pspforever2> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829184/
[03:14] <TJ-> Pspforever2: woooo that's better, 63% not 97%
[03:15] <pspforever1> great
[03:15] <TJ-> Pspforever2: let's fix up the broken installs now... give me a moment to check which ones need it
[03:15] <applebum> does apt-get cache the downloaded packages
[03:15] <pspforever1> ok, thank you
[03:15] <applebum> if so u can remove the packages from cache for extra space
[03:15] <marchesini> i mean with throughtput the percentage utilized of processor
[03:17] <mikubuntu> marchesini: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11829173/
[03:17] <TJ-> Pspforever2: "sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-3.13.0-55-generic linux-image-extra-3.13.0-{43,55}-generic linux-signed-image-3.13.0-{43,55}-generic linux-image-generic linux-signed-image-generic linux-generic"
[03:18] <TJ-> applebum: packages are kept in apt's archive at "/var/cache/apt/archives/"
[03:19] <marchesini> mikubuntu,  the video freezes on every website that you play, and freezes with program like totem or only with some website?
[03:19] <pspforever1> you are a saint.
[03:20] <pspforever1> this one is taking a little longer =)
[03:20] <TJ-> Pspforever2: Yes, it is fixing all the broken bits
[03:20] <mikubuntu> marchesini: freezes alot, don't think i can say 'every' website -- lemme look for a video on a server that should move well
[03:20] <TJ-> Pspforever2: after that command do "sudo apt-get -f install" just to be sure all is good with the package manager
[03:20] <pspforever1> Alright
[03:21] <pspforever1> okay, finished both commands
[03:22] <marchesini> mikubuntu, you already try to clean your pc and the processor? it can be the probably cause of this, if the cause is hardware. in other hand if the cause is software i recommend reinstall the video driver or the codec that you are using
[03:22] <TJ-> pspforever1: Right then ... reboot, it should boot to the -55 kernel without issues. If so, log back into IRC and we'll remove that -35 kernel it is currently using. If it fails to boot agian with -55, reboot it with the -35 kernel
[03:22] <pspforever1> ill still be here while I reboot (on my laptop)
[03:23] <TJ-> pspforever1: Yeah, I figured theres 21 of you now
[03:23] <pspforever1> lol
[03:23] <TJ-> 21? 2!
[03:23] <mikubuntu> marchesini: how do you recommend to 'clean' pc and processor?
[03:23] <pspforever1> alright, let's see if this works.
[03:24] <pspforever1> Dude, it worked
[03:24] <mikubuntu> marchesini: you mean physically clean, blow out with canned air?
[03:24] <TJ-> mikubuntu: Could your ISP be throttling streaming video connections from popular video sites?
[03:24] <marchesini> see a video on the youtube, always is open the computer and clean every piece, if you don't know what you are making only clean without disconnecting the cables
[03:24] <pspforever1> you are effin amazing, dont even know how you knew all that stuff
[03:25] <mikubuntu> TJ-: i wouldn't put that past ATT
[03:25] <pspforever1> Okay, it worked. Everything went fine.
[03:25] <pspforever1> Do I do anything else now?
[03:25] <TJ-> pspforever1: once the other PC has logged in I'll give commands to clean up -35
[03:25] <pspforever1> okay
[03:25] <pspforever1> it's logged in
[03:26] <marchesini> it can be the possible hardware cause, if is software can be the codec, video driver, or the internet provider
[03:26] <mikubuntu> TJ-: marchesini i just tried couple of youtubes and they load and played fine, so i'm guessing it is a server issue, or throttling
[03:26] <pspforever1> wait
[03:26] <marchesini> or the player, with lagged flash player
[03:26] <pspforever1> okay now im on
[03:26] <marchesini> mikubuntu, then it a server, the server you tried before is so poor
[03:27] <pspforever1> let's do this
[03:28] <TJ-> Pspforever2:  "sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image{,-extra}-3.13.0-35-generic linux-signed-image-3.13.0-35-generic linux-headers-3.13.0-35{,-generic}"
[03:28] <applebum> mikubuntu: add an unstable browser to that list of probables :)
[03:29] <TJ-> marchesini: if the network stream is lagging behind the frame-rate that fully explains the laggy video. The issue appears to be with network throughput, and as it seems to only affect some sites, is likely either routing problems or ISP throttling streams
[03:30] <Pspforever2> wow, 271mb will be free'd on this one
[03:30] <marchesini> perfectly
[03:30] <mikubuntu> applebum: chrome running on lubuntu 14.04
[03:30] <Pspforever2> Finished.
[03:30] <marchesini> but can you imagine a user that don't know what is a laggy stream
[03:31] <TJ-> Pspforever2: all done then. You need to keep an eye on the kernel updates because the /boot/ file-system is rather small... bookmark the link that applebum provided
[03:31] <TJ-> Pspforever2: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels
[03:31] <Spark010> Mikubuntu you can try to use mps-youtube since your config is like mine :3
[03:31] <Pspforever2> thanks TJ
[03:31] <Pspforever2> so how do I thank you now?
[03:32] <applebum> mikubuntu: u can us glasnost to verify what TJ-  mentioned
[03:32] <TJ-> Pspforever2: By coming in and helping others if and when you can :)
[03:32] <Pspforever2> Ya I don't think that will happen anytime soon... I should learn a bit more about ubuntu
[03:33] <Pspforever2> you don't want 20$?
[03:33] <Pspforever2> I would pay you more but I don't have much
[03:33] <TJ-> Pspforever2: contribute to anything open-source, even if its documentation only. That's often rather neglected and can get out of date. Maybe help your favourite programs
[03:33] <OerHeks> Pspforever2, type !cookie | TJ-
[03:33] <Pspforever2> !cookie | TJ-
[03:33] <TJ-> Pspforever2: thank-you, but no. I prefer people to contribute back to open-source in any way they can
[03:34] <Pspforever2> Dude you are a saint there are no other words for it.
[03:34] <Pspforever2> Goodnight man
[03:35] <TJ-> It's time I was in bed... but the dawn chorus has begun and I need to take 2 energetic Huskies for runs before it gets too hot. Good night :)
[03:35] <Pspforever2> Peace out man!!
[03:35] <Pspforever2> enjoy your walk / run
[03:36] <TJ-> "drag!" :)
[03:36] <hobbet1> i help by using transmission and keeping it up so people can download programs like your version of program when they use torrents, i also donate to open source programs, and help people on here with things that i learned if not by only showing them where i have googled
[03:46] <Spark010> Any one knows how to bind mediakeys on ubuntu-minimal ?
[03:48] <Sophie_T> Guys I need help. I want to create my own torrent tracker on my VPS. Im using opentracker for it (https://erdgeist.org/arts/software/opentracker/) and i followed the basic steps and ran it with ./opentracker. now the terminal looks like this http://puu.sh/iOFj5.png . i cant do anything in it anymore and i have to cancel it with ctrl + c. I did try the tracker out and it actually did work ..
[03:48] <Sophie_T> but only until i hit ctrl c. is there any way i can run this without cancelling it whenever i try another command?
[03:52] <rypervenche> Sophie_T: ./opentracker &> /dev/null & disown
[03:53] <Sophie_T> ah damn it rypervenche thanks for the answer, but i just found it out myself ;_;
[03:54] <Sophie_T> i used Ctrl + z; bg; disown
[03:55] <rypervenche> Sophie_T: That will work too, but when you do the ctrL+z, it actually stops the process, which can cause issues with the process, depending on how it works.
[03:56] <rypervenche> Sophie_T: But that works if you have already started it. For future reference, you should use what I wrote. It will redirect all output to /dev/null, essentially making it so you can't see it, and also make it so you start it in the background and can still let it run if you close the terminal.
[03:56] <Sophie_T> ok thanks
[03:57] <p5yc071c> Has anyone installed Ubuntu, OSX and windows on a macbook?
[03:58] <p5yc071c> seems like there's some issues that might be extremely difficult/impossible
[04:10] <nikon_amd64> how to join the news group ? e.g. :  comp.compilers.lcc
[04:11] <nikon_amd64> can I use xchat do this ?
[04:22] <p5yc071c> has anyone installed Ubuntu on a macbook pro with Bootcamp?
[04:22] <p5yc071c> Or virtualbox?
[04:28] <michaelgamble> hey
[04:30] <jak2000> hi all how to know my system is 32 bits or 64 bits?
[04:30] <michaelgamble> i installed headphones app in python, which uses a newly made user called headphones (which i created with no home directory).. the app is trying to manipulate files within my users ~/Downloads folder .. but getting permissions denied.. im thinking b.c. the files / directory its trying to manipulate this new user has no permissions to access
[04:30] <michaelgamble> or mess with
[04:30] <p5yc071c> jak2000: try google
[04:30] <michaelgamble> i did, didnt find much
[04:30] <michaelgamble> oh lol
[04:30] <michaelgamble> you werent talking to me
[04:31] <michaelgamble> also my new “headphones” user is not in any group either
[04:31] <michaelgamble> so im wondering if i need to put it in the same group as my main OS user (the one that owns the downloads folder)
[04:32] <michaelgamble> OR do i need to change my downloads folders permissions
[04:32] <Lurchy> hey people...anyone familier with mame or other game emulators on ubuntu??
[04:32] <michaelgamble> any suggestions?
[04:32] <jak2000> p5yc071c ok :(
[04:32] <BuzzardBuzz> Lurchy, dosbox is fun on ubuntu
[04:33] <BuzzardBuzz> and vice alo
[04:33] <rypervenche> jak2000: Do you mean how to check if your system SUPPORTS 64-bit OSes or if it has a 64-bit OS installed on it?
[04:33] <jak2000> installed
[04:33] <BuzzardBuzz> for C64 emulation for vice
[04:34] <Lurchy> do you have a joystick setup like x-arcade or similer?  I want to make a cabinet and the like
[04:34] <rypervenche> jak2000: uname -m
[04:34] <BuzzardBuzz> sounds like you aleady know that mame is fun too
[04:34] <Lurchy> with full size joystick controls
[04:34] <jak2000> x86_64
[04:34] <rypervenche> Then it's 64-bit
[04:34] <Lurchy> true buzzard
[04:35] <Lurchy> just never used linux to emulate....to big screen tv and usb joystick/buttons/trackball/etc
[04:35] <BuzzardBuzz> i used an xbox joystick that had a usb connector spliced onto the end to plug it in
[04:35] <jak2000> thanks
[04:35] <BuzzardBuzz> what joystick do you have?
[04:36] <Lurchy> going to buy one...looking at x-arcade
[04:36] <BuzzardBuzz> that sounds like a good joystick
[04:37] <Lurchy> http://shop.xgaming.com/collections/arcade-joysticks
[04:38] <michaelgamble> no one on my permissions challenge?
[04:38] <BuzzardBuzz> wow those are way outside my budget for getting one
[04:40] <Lurchy> lol
[04:41] <Lurchy> check out video on page with all the classics
[04:45] <irctc152> Something odd has happened. After adding the pinta-maintainers/pinta-stable PPA, updating and downloading Pinta through apt-get, it has downloaded Pinta 1.4 rather than Pinta 1.7. What have I done wrong this time?
[04:48] <irctc152> I thought adding the PPA would get me the latest version of Pinta.
[04:54] <gartral> is there some kind or quirk/bug in Ubuntu's implimentation of EXT4 that prevents a volume from containing or marking anything as executable is less than %X is free?
[04:54] <supusr> wondering how ubuntu 15.04 mate that I now use would compare to fedora 22 workstation if I were to switch...
[04:54] <michaelgamble> btw figured it out
[04:55] <gartral> supusr: if you have the hardware and space load up each in a VM and play around?
[04:55] <supusr> Yup.  Could do that.  Just curious if anyone had already some thoughts...
[04:56] <irctc152> Could anyone wax poetical as to why a PPA is giving me an old version of a program? I've run out of ideas.
[04:57] <ubuntu079> supusr: Mote similar than different, both linux kernels and the same desktops
[04:57] <ubuntu079> More*
[04:57] <supusr> ubuntu079 & gartral:  Thanks.
[04:58] <ubuntu079> fedora is a nice OS worth trying
[04:58] <gartral> supusr: eh, it really depends what you want... each are optimized out of the box in different ways
[05:00] <CryptoSiD> is kubuntu willy running kde 5?
[05:01] <supusr> ubuntu079 & gartral:  I'm a linux user for 2 years.  Liberal arts guy, so not a coder, but fairly proficient messing with software.  Hobbyist, I guess.  Retired.  Writer.  Just notice ubuntu is glitchier, it seems.  Maybe just have writer's block.
[05:08] <gartral> is there some kind or quirk/bug in Ubuntu's implimentation of EXT4 that prevents a volume from containing or marking anything as executable is less than %X is free?
[05:09] <Guest33169> Hello! Is there an app or a way in Ubuntu to have the computer initiate tether over usb with an android phone?
[05:14] <donofrio> what command do I run for how to logout a pts session?
[05:15] <gartral> is there some kind or quirk/bug in Ubuntu's implimentation of EXT4 that prevents a volume from containing or marking anything as executable is less than %X is free?
[05:19] <ubuntu079> gartral: What makes you ask this, context helps if you have had this happen.
[05:20] <irctc152> Okay, I know I'm supposed to be patient, but it's been over half an hour without a response to a question that I don't think is extremely complex. I think I'm being ignored here.
[05:21] <irctc152> The question was: after adding the pinta-maintainers/pinta-stable PPA, updating and downloading Pinta through apt-get, it has downloaded Pinta 1.4 rather than Pinta 1.7. Why is this happening?
[05:23] <ubuntu079> irctc152: PPa's are not supported here but when you use them they list what is there. You will probably have to ask the ppa's maintainers at the least.
[05:25] <pragomer> how can I add virtualbox-full-screen to a remastered ubuntu-iso?
[05:26] <donofrio> and I got my silly thought just killed my old pid's  lol
[05:26] <donofrio> must goto bed |)
[05:34] <Linuxlite> hello im new here
[05:35] <ubuntu079> Linuxlite: Welcome, this is one of the times of the week is all.
[05:35] <ubuntu079> slowest*
[05:36] <Linuxlite> haha ok just to make sure u know im using linux lite on my laptop through virtualbox works well and smooth
[05:36] <ubuntu079> Linuxlite: Sure, this is ubuntu support but help is always needed...etc.
[05:37] <Linuxlite> ok :)
[05:37] <Ben64> Linux Lite support is https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/ as far as i can tell, they don't have IRC
[05:37] <ubuntu079> good place to lurk an learn
[05:39] <Linuxlite> uh my visualboy advance wont work with a rom:/
[05:39] <Linuxlite> like i can open it but all i see is a white screen
[05:39] <fxguy> hi
[05:40] <fxguy> should we set passphrase for key?
[05:40] <fxguy> and why please?
[05:40] <fxguy> if so, why don't we just use login mode with password?
[05:40] <Linuxlite> what?
[05:40] <fxguy> Linuxlite: hi
[05:41] <fxguy> when i do keygen, it asked me to input passphrase
[05:41] <Linuxlite> what do you mean?
[05:41] <fxguy> ssh keygen
[05:41] <Linuxlite> im using linux lite on my laptop and its 3:41pm here in Aus
[05:41] <fxguy> it asked me to create a passphrase
[05:42] <Linuxlite> could you send me like a file and i should help you
[05:42] <Linuxlite> like take a picture ??
[05:43] <Ben64> fxguy: you probably don't want a passphrase
[05:43] <fxguy> Ben64: hi
[05:43] <Ben64> hello
[05:43] <fxguy> Ben64: i don't want it because i don't want to have that extra step
[05:43] <Linuxlite> hello what linux distro are you guys running?
[05:43] <fxguy> but is there any security issue?
[05:44] <Linuxlite> there shouldnt be
[05:44] <Ben64> Linuxlite: this channel is only for ubuntu support, for offtopic stuff go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:44] <Linuxlite> ben64 how do you get to that may i ask?
[05:44] <Ben64> /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:45] <Linuxlite> thank you:)
[05:57] <fxguy> Ben64: who needs a passphrase?
[05:59] <freeroute> hello, I am on Ubuntu 12.04 (which is still supported btw). I wanted to ask what the best non-hassle screen recorder was. I know ffmpeg is one of the options, but figuring out the commandline handles is a hassle at this moment.
[06:02] <cfhowlett> freeroute, recordmydesktop
[06:02] <freeroute> thank you, I will have a look at that.
[06:02] <cfhowlett> "best"??? no such animal. best is the one you choose for your use/preferences
[06:03] <freeroute> yeah I'm all with you on that
[06:03] <freeroute> however
[06:03] <freeroute> I did say best "non-hassle"
[06:15] <jak2000> hi all, i have a link  default-java -> java-1.7.0-openjdk-amd64    how to point default-java to new directory: java-8-openjdk-amd64   ?  here more info: http://pastie.org/10275154
[06:17] <acosonic> jak2000, try this
[06:17] <acosonic> sudo update-alternatives --config java
[06:18] <jak2000> yes i do
[06:18] <jak2000> but not point to new openjdk
[06:18] <jak2000> directory
[06:19] <nikolam> ikonia, large cpu usage from Xorg for no apparent reason, exists also on 12.04.5 LTS 32bit (asuseee 701, 700Mhz) but it is like that for up to 30 seconds (while doing nothing) but it then goes away.
[06:20] <acosonic> jak2000, did you manually install that openjdk?
[06:20] <jak2000> not

[06:22] <Loshki> login mode with password allows someone to mount a brute force attack. In practice, this is only a problem if you allow weak passwords. But there are other problems with passwords. ssh keys get round these problems, but without a passphrase, anyone who accesses your machine can steal your key. With a good enough passphrase, even a stolen key is useless.

[06:45] <Linuxlite> how do you run gameranger with wine i cant find a video or some sort?
[06:45] <Linuxlite> could someone help me??
[06:48] <cfhowlett> Linuxlite, we only support ubuntu here. install ubuntu and we'll be happy2help.
[06:49] <Linuxlite> im running linux lite its based on ubuntu
[06:49] <cfhowlett> but it's NOT ubuntu.
[06:49] <vegombrei> so ive been trying to get my blu ray drive to be able to play movies, read a bunch of forums tried almost everything but it still don work, has anyone successfully done this?
[06:49] <Linuxlite> cfhowlett its based though
[06:49] <cfhowlett> !flavors these are official ubuntu distros.  if not on this list, we don't support it
[06:49] <cfhowlett> !flavors | Linuxlite
[06:50] <Linuxlite> ugh im been around google no answer
[06:50] <Linuxlite> cause i got some games on my distro but i wanna play with others
[06:50] <cfhowlett> Linuxlite, we DO NOT SUPPORT linux lite.  so ... look elsewhere for help or install ubuntu.
[06:51] <Linuxlite> fine i see how it is bye
[06:51] <vegombrei> LOL
[06:51] <Linuxlite> plus ubuntu is too slow on my laptop
[06:51] <Linuxlite> doesnt even boot because u guys make it slow with unity
[06:51] <cfhowlett> Linuxlite, lubuntu and xubuntu have no unity.  try them
[06:51] <zemmihates> well, that was pleasant
[06:52] <vegombrei> Linuxlite has a point there .
[06:52] <vegombrei> anyways ..
[06:52] <vegombrei> so ive been trying to get my blu ray drive to be able to play movies, read a bunch of forums tried almost everything but it still don work, has anyone successfully done this?
[06:56] <kasper> Nicely done, Greece
[06:56] <cfhowlett> kasper, ??? wrong channel for politics, m8
[07:01] <maxxer> hi. I've an 14.04 fully installed system which won't boot anymore! It runs the kernel then won't start upstart http://askubuntu.com/questions/643976/ubuntu14-stuck-after-kernel-initialization
[07:03] <histo> maxxer: what were you doing before it stopped booting?
[07:03] <maxxer> histo: I installed the whole system, then rebooted before going to production and it nver started again
[07:03] <maxxer> the OS is fully update
[07:03] <maxxer> d
[07:04] <maxxer> running the latest kernel available for 14.04
[07:04] <maxxer> I suspect it could be something related to the LSI RAID controler
[07:05] <histo> maxxer: So it's never booted properly on the installed version?
[07:07] <maxxer> histo: it did. I ran into this issue just once before the full configuration, but all the other times it booted fine
[07:07] <maxxer> well, I did reboot just 5 or 6 times
[07:09] <agent_white> Evenin'
[07:09] <agent_white>  / moin
[07:11] <maxxer> histo: i tried regenerating initramfs from rescue mode but it won't complete, it remains stuck forever
[07:11] <histo> maxxer: in rescue mode are you able to mount / and /swap?
[07:11] <maxxer> histo: yes
[07:13] <histo> maxxer: did your kernel update ?  perhaps try booting an older kernel
[07:13] <maxxer> I tried booting the oldest one I have installed but it behaves the same. I should try installing the kernel from the livecd
[07:13] <maxxer> do you know where can I fetch it?
[07:14] <histo> maxxer: odd.
[07:16] <histo> maxxer: what do you mean initramfs remains stuck forever?  is there any outpu?
[07:16] <vegombrei> wxit
[07:16] <vegombrei> exit
[07:17] <maxxer> histo: no output. maybe my collegue forgot to mount something into the chroot environment, also service restart remain stuck
[07:18] <histo> maxxer: Did you have to mess around with drivers for your raid card at all during install?
[07:19]  * histo wonders if the initrd has them
[07:20] <histo> although booting an older kernel would have used the older initrd
[07:23] <histo> maxxer: how are you getting into 'rescue' mode?
[07:24] <histo> maxxer: also what was your college doing in chroot environment?
[07:24] <maxxer> histo: using livecd. anyway no I didn't install any additional driver during install, it was autodetected. It's an "old" LSI raid card, have been working with the previous 10.04 instal
[07:25] <neo1691> The lock screen that we see after resuming a suspended laptop, can that lockscreen be called using a command? I am using bspwm window manager on ubuntu, need a way to lock my screen
[07:25] <neo1691> I thought of using i3lock, but if I suspend on bspwm, the lock screen was there when I resumed, so I thought of using key binding to call the lockscreen.
[07:26] <EriC^> try gnome-screensaver-command -l
[07:28] <neo1691> EriC^: That did it!! Thanks!
[07:28] <EriC^> sure
[07:29] <neo1691> EriC^: The screen is locked automatically after some time of inactivity, I doubt if that is possible when using your own window manager?
[07:29] <EriC^> !info xautolock
[07:30] <neo1691> EriC^: I will look into xautolock, thanks again!!
[07:30] <EriC^> neo1691: use xautolock and set it to start gnome-screesaver-command -l
[07:30] <EriC^> np
[07:35] <histo> maxxer: I'm at a loss for ideas
[07:35] <maxxer> histo: ok, thanks anyway
[07:36] <michael_p> hi i am trying a bit of scripting the problem is i get bin/bash command not found not such fiule or directory
[07:37] <EriC^> michael_p: is the shebang #!bin/bash ?
[07:37] <EriC^> cause it should be #!/bin/bash
[07:37] <michael_p> #!/bin/baSh
[07:37] <EriC^> capital S?
[07:37] <michael_p> i think i see it
[07:45] <jagu003> Hi
[07:49] <rthnryjtytjm> users belong to groups. are they only set in etc/groups or somewhere else as well? if not i would manually add the groups now from a live cd rather than a command in the os itself. would this work or do i also have to edit another file?
[07:52] <rockstar_> how can I display all the line numbers in sdiff?
[08:03] <BBLLCC> im now on campus and although im connected, the time on my machine shows 01:12, its 14:12 here and, every time I click on a link, Im prompted to confirm security exceptions, something that never happened to me
[08:06] <glsubri> Hi! Does somebody know how to connect to LDAP on a Zentyal machine ? (Zentyal is based on Ubuntu, that's why I'm here ;D)
[08:06] <hp_> i want a little help
[08:06] <hp_> i have installed ubuntu 14.04.1 in my server
[08:06] <hp_> after that i instlled ubnuntu desktop interface
[08:07] <hp_> but i cant login in gui mode
[08:07] <hp_> login screen shows at booging
[08:07] <hp_> but when password is entered it shows a black screen then logout
[08:08] <EriC^> hp_: pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /home/<your user>/.xsession-errors
[08:09] <hp_> k
[08:09] <hp_> brb
[08:09] <BBLLCC> can anyone tell me whil on campus network the systems clock reverts back 8 years? im now in 2007
[08:11] <hp_> btw i can only access using cli
[08:11] <hp_> how can i share those files
[08:12] <EriC^> hp_: type cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log ~/.xsessions-errors | nc termbin.com 9999
[08:13] <hp_> cat /var/log/Xorg.1.log.old ~/.xsessions-errors : nc  termbin.com 9999
[08:13] <EriC^> hp_: it's | not :
[08:13] <drmagoo> BBLLCC: That can depend on two things, that I can think of. Either the dhcp-server assigns a NTP-server that is giving you the wrong time. Or you cannot access a ntp-server from the campus network and you have the wrong time set in your bios. Is it only when you connect to the campus network that you get this problem ?
[08:14] <hp_> cat /var/log/Xorg.1.log.old ~/.xsessions-errors | nc  termbin.com 9999
[08:14] <The-Compiler> I'm upgrading a headless system from Utopic to Vivid, and I accidentally Ctrl-C'ed do-release-upgrade... I still see a dpkg process running though I'm not sure what it's doing (if anything). How should I proceed?
[08:15] <hp_> EriC^: did you got the files
[08:16] <The-Compiler> looking at /proc/PID/fd/64 now (because it was started with --status-fd 64), but nothing... hrm.
[08:16] <EriC^> hp_: no, you have to type that in your terminal
[08:16] <hp_> wait
[08:16] <EriC^> hp_: use Xorg.0.log not Xorg.1.log.old
[08:17] <imark> The-Compiler, start with release-upgrade again and see first if it will just carry on where it left off
[08:18] <The-Compiler> imark: nope, it just says "No new release found"
[08:18] <The-Compiler> oh, the dpkg process seems to have quit - I think I'll try apt-get -f install and dpkg --configure -a and see what happens
[08:18] <imark> what about dist-upgrade
[08:19] <hp_> EriC^: it reply ther is no such files
[08:19] <The-Compiler> yeah, after the partial stuff is finished
[08:19] <imark> The-Compiler, thats what i would do as well
[08:19] <The-Compiler> apt-get -f install told me to do dpkg --configure -a anyways :)
[08:21] <EriC^> hp_: are the graphics drivers installed?
[08:21] <rockstar_> how can I compare two files line by line, by just displaying only the different ones with line numbers
[08:22] <hp_> yep
[08:22] <utfans05> rockstar_, use diff
[08:22] <utfans05> rockstar_,  diff file1 file2
[08:22] <EriC^> hp_: type sudo ubuntu-drivers devices | nc termbin.com 9999
[08:22] <hp_> came with Nvidia tesla k40c
[08:22] <hp_> k
[08:23] <rockstar_> utfans05: I tried to use it, but it compares two lines to one (for some lines) based upon their similarity. What I need is just line to line comparison, if different show the line number with the content from both files
[08:24] <EriC^> rockstar_: diff goes line by line on the files
[08:24] <hp_> EriC^: its says use netcat
[08:24] <hp_> and stays like that
[08:25] <rockstar_> EriC^: can you tell me what does this mean of diff output? 802a803,804 > 2 > 5
[08:25] <EriC^> hp_: type sudo ubuntu-drivers devices |& curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us
[08:25] <hp_> k
[08:25] <rockstar_> utfans05: EriC^: can you tell me what does this mean of diff output? 802a803,804 > 2 > 5
[08:27] <hp_> EriC^: http://sprunge.us/aaOM
[08:28] <EriC^> hp_: type dpkg -l | grep "nvidia\|nouveau" |& curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us
[08:29] <hp_> K
[08:30] <hp_> EriC^: http://sprunge.us/LSbY
[08:31] <rockstar_> utfans05: EriC^ I think diff and sdiff is comparing by using added, deleted and so on. But I just want to display lines that are different with their corresponding line nums
[08:31] <EriC^> hp_: try sudo apt-get install nvidia-331
[08:32] <hp_> k
[08:32] <histo> rockstar_: is that > 2 > 5  one a seperate line?
[08:32] <rockstar_> histo: they are in different lines
[08:33] <hp_> EriC^: plz wait for 5 minutes
[08:33] <hp_> installing now
[08:34] <EriC^> ok
[08:35] <histo> rockstar_: What type of output are you looking for and what do you intend to do with it?
[08:37] <rockstar_> histo: I want to compare two files line by line. For 1.txt has 1,2,0,3,4 and 2.txt has 2,0,3,1,4. "," representing next line. I want to show only the unmatching lines
[08:37] <histo> rockstar_: sdiff -s
[08:39] <rockstar_> histo: I got following output for above example - 1 <  \n > 1
[08:39] <hp_> Graphics:  Card: Matrox Systems MGA G200EH
[08:39] <hp_>            X.org 1.15.1 drivers mga,nouveau (unloaded: nvidia,fbdev,vesa) tty size N/A Advanced Data: N/A out of X
[08:40] <hp_> this is current
[08:40] <rockstar_> histo: but I want to display 1 2 \n 2 0 \n 0 3 \n 3 1
[08:40] <hp_> only 70 downloading done
[08:40] <histo> rockstar_: why?
[08:41] <histo> rockstar_: what do you intend to do with the output?
[08:42] <rockstar_> histo: because I am comparing files where I don't want to see if some lines are added or removed from the first file. But I simply want to see which files are different.
[08:42] <rockstar_> histo: * which lines are different
[08:42] <hp_> EriC^: installation is done  , what i need to do now , restart or just startx ?
[08:43] <hp_> do i need to restart server ?
[08:43] <EriC^> yeah
[08:44] <hp_> k
[08:44] <hp_> brb
[08:45] <histo> rockstar_: do you mean diff -u 0
[08:46] <rockstar_> histo: it gave me @@ -1 +0,0 @@ -1 @@ -4,0 +4 @@ +1 . 1 added in one place and removed in another.
[08:47] <rockstar_> histo: but I don't want where its added or removed. Because each line number correspond to certain value. So I just want to see the unmatching lines
[08:47] <histo> rockstar_: are the files sorted in any fashion?  what kind of data
[08:49] <hp_> EriC^:
[08:49] <EriC^> hp_: any luck?
[08:49] <rockstar_> histo: to be specific, each line represent the partition id of the vertex id (represented by line number). And I'm trying to compare for what line numbers partition numbers are different
[08:50] <hp_> EriC^: no
[08:50] <hp_> from begining i get this issue
[08:50] <hp_> wait
[08:50] <hp_> let me type
[08:51] <hp_> waiting for X server to shut down (EE) Server terminated successfully (0) .closing log file
[08:51] <hp_> EriC^: any idea
[08:51] <histo> rockstar_: you aren't making much sense. Perhaps rephrase your question or try ##linux
[08:53] <EriC^> hp_: type cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |& curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us
[08:55] <drmagoo> rockstar_: can you pastebin some sample files? That would make it easier for us to understand your problem.
[08:55] <The-Compiler> imark: seems like  dpkg --configure -a  and then a dist-upgrade helped... Rebooting now :) Thanks again for confirming!
[08:56] <bilb_ono> I have a usb stick that I formated with the "disks" tool on ubuntu. It used to have the operating system on it but i want to use it for normal files and stuff. I can see it as /dev/sdb with lsblk but idk how to get it to show in the file finder
[08:56] <bilb_ono> I feel like I need to mount it
[08:56] <hp_> EriC^: http://sprunge.us/MPCR
[08:56] <EriC^> bilb_ono: pastebin lsblk please
[08:56] <bilb_ono> but when I run mound /dev/sdb I get mount: can't find /dev/sdb in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[08:56] <bilb_ono> mount*
[08:57] <bilb_ono> http://pastebin.com/hgGcHqLX
[08:57] <utfans05> bilb_ono, you need to run mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
[08:57] <Fuchs> bilb_ono: lacks at least a number
[08:57] <utfans05> you have to provide a partition and a mount point.
[08:57] <Fuchs> bilb_ono: if it doesn't have one, chances are there are no partitions on it, so you'd need to do that (and format it with a filesystem as well)
[08:58] <bilb_ono> when I do that, mount: block device /dev/sdb1 is write-protected, mounting read-only
[08:58] <EriC^> bilb_ono: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
[08:58] <histo> bilb_ono: have you reinserted teh drive after using the disks tool?
[08:58] <bilb_ono> histo, yeah
[08:58] <varunwachaspati> I have unknowingly deleted gtk, gnome stuff from my Ubuntu 15.04 and now my icons and menu are bizarrely big, my printscreen key isn't working and I can't access Unity Tweak Tool, it states that the following schema is missing
[08:58] <hp_> EriC^: some one is helping me through online will get back to you after some time
[08:59] <varunwachaspati> org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.touchpad
[08:59] <EriC^> hp_: ok
[08:59] <hp_> EriC^: btw plz study it
[08:59] <hp_> :D
[08:59] <varunwachaspati> any pointers will be appreciated, Thanks in advance
[08:59] <rockstar_> EriC^: utfans05 histo drmagoo: here is my target output for comparison http://pastebin.com/yFYZxZ39
[08:59] <The-Compiler> Fuchs: \o_
[09:03] <bilb_ono> Fuchs, I can see there are 3 partitions on it with the Disks tool, File system 1 unknown, file system 2 FAT, and free space 15 GB
[09:03] <histo> rockstar_: so you intend to compare them yourself by eye intead of using diff?
[09:03] <rockstar_> histo: right
[09:03] <Fuchs> bilb_ono: in this case you want to specify the partition that is FAT, and not unknown
[09:03] <Fuchs> hoi The-Compiler
[09:04] <bilb_ono> how do I specify the FAT partition with my mount command?
[09:04] <bilb_ono> I can see that its unmounted
[09:04] <histo> bilb_ono: /dev/sdb<number of whatever partition you wan>
[09:05] <histo> bilb_ono: so if it's sdb2  then /dev/sdb2  is what you want to mount.
[09:05] <bilb_ono> yeah it says its mounted now
[09:05] <bilb_ono> but it still doesn't show in my file finder window
[09:06] <histo> bilb_ono: what file finder window are you talking about?
[09:06] <EriC^> bilb_ono: type gvfs-mount -d /dev/sdb1
[09:07] <EriC^> bilb_ono: type sudo umount /dev/sdb1 first
[09:07] <bilb_ono> ok now I unpugged it and plugged it back in and its on sdc it seems
[09:07] <EriC^> bilb_ono: ok, type gvfs-mount -d /dev/sdc1
[09:08] <Fuchs> wasn't it 2?
[09:08] <EriC^> i think 2 is like 3mb or something
[09:08] <Fuchs> maybe a fdisk -l   in a pastebin would help
[09:08] <Fuchs> so we could see what is actually on there
[09:08] <bilb_ono> both of them say No volume for device file /dev/sdc2 (or 1)
[09:08] <EriC^> bilb_ono: maybe they don't have a filesystem, do as Fuchs said
[09:08] <bilb_ono> fdisk -l doesn't seem to give any output
[09:09] <EriC^> sudo fdisk -l
[09:09] <bilb_ono> http://pastebin.com/EhdKsPrA
[09:10] <EriC^> bilb_ono: that looks like a live usb
[09:10] <bilb_ono> sdc2 seems to have EFI fat
[09:10] <bilb_ono> how do I copy files to it then?
[09:10] <EriC^> bilb_ono: type sudo cfdisk /dev/sdc
[09:10] <EriC^> delete those 2 partitions and make a single fat32 one
[09:11] <EriC^> i mean single partition, then write it and run sudo mkfs.fat -F 32 /dev/sdc1
[09:13] <EriC^> bilb_ono: wait a sec
[09:13] <EriC^> i think it's using a gpt partition table
[09:13] <bilb_ono> it is
[09:13] <EriC^> bilb_ono: type sudo cgdisk /dev/sdc
[09:13] <bilb_ono> it warned me about that when I started
[09:13] <Dylan_> Any idea how to play minecraft cause I get a white screen then closes?
[09:13] <bilb_ono> hmm now Could not load partitions from '/dev/sdc'! Aborting!
[09:14] <bilb_ono> I deleted that one FAT partition and hadn't created a new one yet
[09:14] <histo> bilb_ono: why not just switch to mbr partitioning
[09:14] <bilb_ono> idk what that is
[09:14] <bilb_ono> perhaps?
[09:14] <EriC^> bilb_ono: type sudo gdisk /dev/sdc
[09:14] <EriC^> then type o, then w
[09:15] <bilb_ono> This option deletes all partitions and creates a new protective MBR.
[09:15] <Dylan_> U guys using Ubuntu?
[09:15] <EriC^> ok, press yes
[09:15] <bilb_ono> Proceed, Y/N: Y then it asks me for Command (? for help)
[09:15] <The-Compiler> Dylan_: that's a weird question for #ubuntu ;)
[09:15] <bilb_ono> doesn't seem to like my Y's
[09:16] <Dylan_> oh haha yeah i just wanted to know :p
[09:16] <EriC^> bilb_ono: after you press Y, it's done
[09:16] <histo> bilb_ono: it took you Y now it's waiting for you to quit
[09:16] <EriC^> bilb_ono: press w to write it
[09:16] <Dylan_> like cause I thought mainly the other people using diffrent distorts
[09:16] <Chilion> Should I be here for questions about postfix and ubuntu and squirrelmail or in an other channel?
[09:16] <bilb_ono> ok that seems like it worked. writing new guid partition table to /dev/sdc
[09:16] <histo> Chilion: we'll never know unless you ask.
[09:17] <Chilion> histo: good point.
[09:17] <EriC^> bilb_ono: ok, type sudo cgdisk /dev/sdc and make a single partition using the whole space
[09:17] <Chilion> Well, my server that is a webserver should be working as a mail server also.
[09:17] <tytheubuntunoob> Hello there! Is anyone able to help me repair the damage I’ve done to my Ubuntu Server ? I was attempting to add a new hard drive to the system, and part of that involves labeling the drive as MSDOS,GPT, and so forth. Like an idiot, I mislabeled the wrong drive! Now I can’t boot it, and when I try to relabel it back to MSDOS it says all data will be lost.
[09:18] <Chilion> ERROR

[09:18] <Chilion> At this moment it doesn't work, I get an error when trying to login via squirrelmail with the message .
[09:18] <bilb_ono> EriC^, ok now theres just a 15.2 GB linux filesystem
[09:18] <Chilion> Well, it posted the error as you can see.
[09:18] <bilb_ono> along with some free space
[09:18] <Ben64> tytheubuntunoob: what exactly did you do
[09:18] <Chilion> So, histo, right channel? :)
[09:18] <EriC^> bilb_ono: which hexcode did you choose?
[09:18] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: what do you mean by labeling your drive?
[09:18] <bilb_ono> not sure. the default one
[09:18] <bilb_ono> just pressing enter
[09:19] <ries> Hey All, does a default ubuntu come with LibreCAD?
[09:19] <EriC^> bilb_ono: ok, type sudo cgdisk /dev/sdc again
[09:19] <histo> Chilion: what are you using for imap?
[09:19] <EriC^> bilb_ono: press type, and choose the hexcode 0700
[09:19] <bilb_ono> ok back into it
[09:19] <ries> or at least such that it can be installed using software center?
[09:19] <Chilion> histo: postfix and dovecot
[09:19] <Chilion> histo: you mean port? 143 like normal
[09:19] <Chilion> Can't telnet either one of those, 111 of 143
[09:19] <histo> Chilion: yeah ask in #dovecot
[09:20] <histo> Chilion: any firewall rules enabled?
[09:20] <EriC^> bilb_ono: then press write
[09:20] <bilb_ono> ok I used 0700 when it asked me and now it made it microsoft basic data
[09:20] <bilb_ono> does that sound right?
[09:20] <tytheubuntunoob> the drive didn’t come formatted as MSDOS or GPT etc, so I used parted to create a new label for the drive, but I relabeled an old storage drive to GPT rather then the new one! I can see the drive, but I can’t mount it, and it’s churning away making me nervous.....
[09:20] <EriC^> bilb_ono: yeah
[09:21] <allizom> ries: yes, you can install it from the repositories: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=librecad
[09:21] <Chilion> Well, my server that is a webserver should be working as a mail server also. At this moment it doesn't work, I get an error when trying to login via squirrelmail with the message . 111 : Connection refused
[09:21] <EriC^> bilb_ono: press write, then exit
[09:21] <Chilion> whoops
[09:21] <Chilion> histo: no firewall at all
[09:21] <ries> allizom: thanks for the lookup (/me knows little about ubuntu)
[09:21] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: when you say labeled I assume you mean partition the drive.  You can try recovering your lost partitions with testdisk
[09:21] <tytheubuntunoob> when I run fsck /dev/sdc1 it says bag magic error
[09:21] <bilb_ono> EriC^, ok now what?
[09:21] <tytheubuntunoob> superblock invalid
[09:21] <bilb_ono> would I have to take it out and put it back in for it to work?
[09:22] <EriC^> bilb_ono: type sudo mkfs.fat -F 32 /dev/sdc1
[09:22] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: what type of data was on the drive and do you have a backup?
[09:22] <EriC^> bilb_ono: not really, but type that to make the filesystem, and then unplug and plug back in and the filemanager should display it i think and mount it
[09:22] <ljose> Hi, how can I install armhf libssl-dev packages on i686 machine, for cross compiling an arm package
[09:23] <tytheubuntunoob> video files for work, and I do have backups, but I’d really prefer to fix the problem if at all possible… it’s 2TB of files
[09:23] <bilb_ono> nice yeah I think it worked
[09:23] <tytheubuntunoob> maybe pull the drive and try to do maintinence on it ?
[09:23] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step
[09:23] <tytheubuntunoob> thanks histo
[09:25] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: are you familiar with how the drive was partitioned before?
[09:25] <tytheubuntunoob> histo yes it was partitioned as MS-DOS
[09:25] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: just one big partition?
[09:25] <tytheubuntunoob> histo yes
[09:26] <bilb_ono> EriC^, hmm it says its a 16GB volume
[09:26] <tytheubuntunoob> the data is still all on the drive, I just need to get it back to the correct format….
[09:26] <bilb_ono> but it can't copy files over I keep getting errors with "No space left on drive"
[09:26] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: well you should be able to just recreate the partition table on it. assuming you didn't get into your data area with whatever you did previously.
[09:26] <EriC^> bilb_ono: are you sure it's mounted rw?
[09:26] <EriC^> bilb_ono: does your usb have a read-protect thing?
[09:26] <EriC^> i mean write-protect
[09:27] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: what filesystem was on your partition?
[09:27] <bilb_ono> idk how can I check?
[09:27] <Idle223> hi just got a question about luks, so when luks is used it is intended to be used in a partition other than where the OS is installed, so luks is installed in a isolated area and only mounted after a pc is booted right?
[09:27] <EriC^> bilb_ono: look at it and see if there's a switch or something
[09:27] <tytheubuntunoob> histo I used the command parted mklabel GPT, it was previously MSDOS
[09:27] <EriC^> bilb_ono: also type mount && df -h and pastebin the contents
[09:27] <bilb_ono> oh no it doesn't have a switch
[09:28] <tytheubuntunoob> it’s not the partition…. it’s the … disk label type ?
[09:28] <bilb_ono> http://pastebin.com/RpP5DAuA
[09:29] <Idle223> anybody?
[09:29] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: oh then just switch it back
[09:29] <EriC^> bilb_ono: something's off
[09:30] <EriC^> bilb_ono: type sudo parted -l and pastebin it
[09:30] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: https://www.gnu.org/software/parted/manual/html_node/rescue.html
[09:30] <tytheubuntunoob> histo ? when I tried to use parted to relabel it
[09:30] <tytheubuntunoob> it said it would destroy all the data
[09:30] <bilb_ono> EriC^, http://pastebin.com/get00iT9
[09:32] <EriC^> bilb_ono: hmm
[09:32] <bilb_ono> I can copy really small files to it
[09:32] <EriC^> it says partition table: loop for some reason
[09:32] <bilb_ono> but nothing like 100mb or over
[09:32] <histo> tytheubuntunoob: what command were you using in parted that said it would destroy?
[09:33] <tytheubuntunoob> mklabel
[09:33] <EriC^> bilb_ono: unmount it from the filemanager, and type sudo gdisk /dev/sdd again
[09:33] <bilb_ono> Problem opening /dev/sdd for reading! Error is 123.

[09:34] <EriC^> ok, try to unplug it and plug it back in
[09:34] <greg__> It can't be a featch eager issue as it's a simple query that only grabs a record from one table...
[09:34] <greg__> has anyone come across this issue before?

[09:43] <EriC^> i'm not sure about ntfs and mac, i guess so

[10:34] <kamil000> Hello, anyone here who can help me configure the PXE server so I can boot up Ubuntu 14.04 Live from network?
[10:34] <pkremer> ok what can i do?
[10:35] <bekks> pkremer: Talk to your hoster, thats your only chance.
[10:35] <pkremer> ok thanks for your help!
[10:35] <drmagoo> kamil000: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallServer
[10:36] <kamil000> drmagoo, are you sure this method will let me boot Ubuntu Live instead of installing it?
[10:44] <kamil000> drmagoo, this tutorial seems to be really outdated. tftpd-hpa file looks quite different from what this tutorial says, inetd.conf file doesn't have any default values...
[10:44] <bekks> kamil000: Which manual do you use?
[10:44] <kamil000> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallServer
[10:45] <kamil000> My goal: configure the PXE server so I can boot up Ubuntu 14.04(.2) Live from network
[10:46] <bekks> So maybe this helps: http://askubuntu.com/questions/412574/pxe-boot-server-installation-steps-in-ubuntu-server-vm
[10:47] <kamil000> Thanks bekks I'm checking it out. Tell me, is configuring a secondary DHCP server necessary if there's already such server running in my network (router)?
[10:47] <Kartagis> http://termbin.com/6tv9 <--- why am I getting this? I've tried apt-get {update,upgrade} to no avail
[10:48] <bekks> A secondary DHCP will lead to race conditions and severe networking issues.
[10:48] <kamil000> That's why I am asking. So I should just skip the DHCP step?
[10:49] <kamil000> Kartagis, I remember having similar issue with some very old packages - instead of using apt-get I had to install them manually
[10:50] <insane> what was the issue with apt- get?
[10:50] <kamil000> Some packages could not be installed. The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[10:50] <kamil000>  nautilus-dropbox : Depends: dropbox but it is not going to be installed
[10:50] <bekks> kamil000: you have to configure your primary dhcp server to provide the data needed for PXE booting.
[10:51] <Kartagis> kamil000: the thing is, I get dropbox from its webpage and install, but installing nautilus-dropbox tries to fetch it again
[10:51] <bekks> Kartagis: Thats because you are mixing up packages.
[10:51] <Kartagis> bekks: elaborate please
[10:52] <bekks> Kartagis: You just said you installed dropbox manually - and now you are trying to install a package which relies on dropbox not being installed manually, but from the repos.
[10:53] <Kartagis> bekks: I thought nautilus-dropbox was needed for contextual menu and stuff
[10:53] <bekks> Kartagis: Which is correct. But it relies on dropbox being installed from the repos, not manually.
[10:55] <kamil000> bekks my router (TD-W8950ND) doesn't seem to support what PXE needs. In this case I should temporarily disable DHCP on my router and configure it on PC, yes?
[10:55] <bekks> kamil000: Thats your only chance, yes.
[10:56] <Kartagis> maybe that's my issue at home. I wasn't able to install dropbox properly. I've yet to try
[10:56] <bekks> Kartagis: Why werent you able to?
[10:57] <Kartagis> bekks: no idea
[10:57] <bekks> Kartagis: So apt-get refused with the message "no idea"? :)
[11:02] <kamil_> test
[11:03] <cfhowlett> !test | kamil_
[11:06] <kamil_> bekks, in the DHCP configuration file I should setup the IP addresses the same way it was done on my router?
[11:15] <kamil_> I'm trying to configure PXE server using this manual: http://askubuntu.com/questions/412574/pxe-boot-server-installation-steps-in-ubuntu-server-vm - but in the third step, the "netstat" command doesn't list the "*:tftp" address. What did I do wrong?
[11:17] <JackH> does anyone have more info about this: http://tech.thaivisa.com/intel-ubuntu-hdmi-dongle/12160/
[11:17] <JackH> I want this
[11:19] <kamil_> I'm starting to understand why PXE is so unknown and not widely used, configuring it is just painful... Thanks for assistance anyway, I'm going to keep trying with USB booting
[11:19] <cfhowlett> !pxe | kamil_
[11:21] <bekks> kamil_: you didnt start the tftp server.
[11:22] <Kartagis> http://i.imgur.com/KHa6kls.png <--- why does this keep happening? it is annoying
[11:22] <Kartagis> does this happen to anyone else?
[11:23] <bekks> Kartagis: never happened to me - but I'm not using that dock.
[11:23] <cfhowlett> Kartagis, I've seen it in xubuntu after nuking the .config and settings.  after logout/login, settings reconfigured and we were good to go
[11:23] <Kartagis> cfhowlett: I'm using ubuntu
[11:24] <cfhowlett> of course, that's xfce4 panel, not unity panel
[11:24] <cfhowlett> or whatever you're using
[11:24] <Kartagis> cfhowlett: gnome
[11:24] <cfhowlett> Kartagis, ah.  sorry.  can't help you.  never used it.
[11:24] <Kartagis> cfhowlett: so you're saying this will never happen on xfce4?
[11:25] <cfhowlett> Kartagis, eh?  I said the exact same thing happened with xfce4 panel!
[11:26] <Kartagis> oh sorry, I thought you said it happens on gnome because this is for xfce4
[11:26]  * Kartagis runs
[11:29] <l0p3n> I'm getting the mysterious message "couldn't access control socket: /run/user/1000/keyring/control: No such file or directory" when I start gnome-keyring-daemon. Any ideas on how to create this directory?

[11:55] <millerti> How can I mark a bug entry as high priority?  I have found a serious bug on an Ubuntu package.  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtkwave/+bug/1471042
[12:01] <EriC^> user1_: hey
[12:01] <daviator> hello guys )) do anyone know any software to burn mdx file on linux?
[12:40] <Siilwyn> Hi people I'm using Ubuntu 14.04, and I'm trying to edit some music information (tags) like the genre with Rhythmbox Music Player, but on every song I get the following scary error: "Error while saving song information, File corrupted during write". What could be wrong?
[12:42] <t0by> Hi, sorry if this is OT, but where can I purchase a silver Ubuntu or Debian media with all the packages in universe?
[12:43] <EriC^^> Siilwyn: maybe the hdd or filesystem is screwed
[12:43] <MonkeyDust> Siilwyn  not sure what's wrong, but try 'audio tag tool'
[12:44] <MonkeyDust> Siilwyn  it's called 'tagtool'
[12:45] <Siilwyn> EriC^^, I don't think that's it. At least the possibility is extremely low since I have no other problems with editing, opening or modifying files.
[12:46] <Siilwyn> MonkeyDust, thanks for the suggestion, will try it out. 'puddletag' looks nice too.
[12:46] <EriC^^> Siilwyn: does it happen with other files?
[12:46] <EriC^^> music files i mean
[12:47] <ioria> !info EasyTAG
[12:47] <Siilwyn> EriC^^, no.
[12:48] <Siilwyn> I'm currently installing a tag editor to see if the problem is Rhythmbox specific.
[12:49] <Siilwyn> Would be a pretty nasty bug for a default Ubuntu app.
[12:50] <polishpoliceforc> what do i format my external memory to so i can move files to and from it on a windows and ubuntu machine?
[12:51] <polishpoliceforc> i tried ntsf but when i try to read/write on windows 8 it says i must format it before using, on ubuntu it has all files as read only
[12:51] <EriC^^> polishpoliceforc: try fat32
[12:56] <polishpoliceforc> EriC^^, what's the diff between that vs and ntfs?
[12:57] <EriC^^> works on more devices
[12:57] <EriC^^> you cant have files larger than 4g though
[12:57] <polishpoliceforc> hmm
[12:57] <polishpoliceforc> ahhh
[12:57] <polishpoliceforc> that's right i remember now
[12:57] <Seven_Six_Two> polishpoliceforc, and ntfs is journalled.
[12:57] <polishpoliceforc> what's that mean?
[12:58] <EriC^^> means you're less likely to lose your data if you unplug it without unmounting etc.
[12:58] <Seven_Six_Two> polishpoliceforc, it's more resistant to corruption
[12:58] <MonkeyDust> like: ext4 is journalled, but ext3 is not, iirc
[12:59] <Seven_Six_Two> ext3 is journalled. ext2 is not
[13:00] <Siilwyn> MonkeyDust, EriC^^ thanks for your help. It works fine with a audio tag editor. It's a really nasty bug though, for a default Ubuntu app.
[13:01] <EriC^^> Siilwyn: that's nothing
[13:01] <EriC^^> ( for rhythmbox )
[13:01] <polishpoliceforc> hmm sooo what do you recommend if i want to be able to save files greater than 4gig and be able to use it without problem on windows and linux?
[13:01] <xpheres> hello
[13:01] <xpheres> does anyone has ubuntu phone or tablet?
[13:01] <EriC^^> polishpoliceforc: ntfs or exfat maybe
[13:02] <Seven_Six_Two> Siilwyn, I use Easytag, for mp3 and flac. It works well.
[13:02] <polishpoliceforc> EriC^^, what's the diff between the 2?
[13:02] <xpheres> if so, please test my app? https://uappexplorer.com/app/analyticaltranslatordemo.xpheresdev
[13:02] <xpheres> there's no way I can make the emulator work
[13:02] <evento> Hello
[13:02] <MonkeyDust> !phone | xpheres
[13:02] <EriC^^> polishpoliceforc: i'd use ntfs i think exfat requires you to install a package on ubuntu to use it
[13:02] <EriC^^> ntfs would be more portable
[13:02] <evento> i have problem with my internet
[13:03] <evento> i need to help
[13:03] <evento> somebody help ?
[13:03] <KSX> siemka ;)
[13:04] <evento> o hej ;)
[13:04] <polishpoliceforc> EriC^^, hmm but that would let me use files greater than 4gig?
[13:04] <MonkeyDust> evento  start with a question
[13:04] <EriC^^> polishpoliceforc: yeah
[13:06] <evento> ok so i got 2 systems: windows 7 ultimate and ubuntu 14.04. one of them (windows) my internet good working ( huewii e3372 ) but on ubuntu doesnt... i dont know what should i do.
[13:06] <evento> i ma new users ubuntu and i dont know very well this system so i need to much help
[13:07] <lotuspsychje> !manual | evento
[13:07] <polishpoliceforc> EriC^^, ok thanks
[13:08] <Siilwyn> EriC^^, what music player do you use for Ubuntu? Is Rhythmbox that bad?
[13:08] <evento> ok but could u help me with installation modem of net ?
[13:08] <TJ-> evento: In the top-right corner of the taskbar there's a network connections icon. Click on it, it should show you a summary of available connection types and actual connections. Your modem is a "Mobile Broadband" device. Ensure that type is enabled
[13:09] <evento> ok w8 for me, i have to eat dinner. i come back soon
[13:09] <evento> give me 5 minutes
[13:09] <KSX> czesc
[13:10] <TJ-> evento: Alternatively in a terminal, type the command "nmcli nm status" and tell us what the state of  "WWAN-HARDWARE" and "WWAN" - they should be "enabled"
[13:10] <lotuspsychje> KSX: can we help you?
[13:10] <EriC^^> Siilwyn: it used to crash for me a lot, and i couldn't get it back running without a restart
[13:11] <KSX> nope
[13:11] <EriC^^> Siilwyn: ended up using gmusic-browser cause it's lightweight but has some nice features, clementine for the more heavy stuff
[13:11] <KSX> i was trying to help evento, i told him to join this channel
[13:12] <Siilwyn> EriC^^, alright. gmusic-browser looks decent. But that name is dreadful
[13:12] <EriC^^> ya i know
[13:12] <EriC^^> :D
[13:12] <KSX> gnu music browser, sounds great :P
[13:13] <EriC^^> it has a camel for an icon
[13:13] <Siilwyn> haha
[13:13] <EriC^^> lol
[13:13] <KSX> gcc icon is even worse
[13:14] <KSX> its a gnu in an egg
[13:14] <Siilwyn> "Ok people, we build a lightweight fast music app. Let's release it!" "Uhm, but we haven't thought of a name yet..." "Well I don't like naming stuff, let's go technical here."
[13:15] <michael_p> anyone know ffmpeg concat
[13:15] <MonkeyDust> michael_p  concat? is that a typo?
[13:16] <Siilwyn> EriC^^, what about Banshee? I found this: http://lifehacker.com/5868759/the-best-music-player-application-for-linux
[13:16] <KSX> what is this?
[13:16] <EriC^^> Siilwyn: never tried it, heard you can use it with the iphone i think though
[13:16] <EriC^^> i'll give it a go soon i think
[13:16] <polishpoliceforc> What do you guys use to backup?
[13:17] <EriC^^> polishpoliceforc: rsync is pretty good
[13:17] <polishpoliceforc> not just using external drives or google drive
[13:17] <polishpoliceforc> what is rsync?
[13:17] <polishpoliceforc> err nvm googled it :P
[13:17] <michael_p> Concatenate – FFmpeg
[13:17] <MonkeyDust> michael_p  what is your real question?
[13:18] <evento> ok so while write nmcli nm status ---> WWAN is off
[13:18] <KSX> guys, help evento
[13:18] <MonkeyDust> !patience
[13:18] <michael_p> conver bunch of mpes into a single file
[13:19] <michael_p> mpegs
[13:19] <MonkeyDust> michael_p  use avconv or winff
[13:19] <evento> keep calm keep calm...
[13:19] <michael_p> avcon is that a script
[13:19] <MonkeyDust> michael_p  avconv replaces ffmpeg
[13:19] <michael_p> oh ok
[13:20] <Seven_Six_Two> avconv is not a script
[13:20] <michael_p> i mean dose it run off a command line or is it a gui
[13:21] <vivid> command line, and whether avconv replaces ffmpeg is highly subjective, depending on who you ask
[13:21] <MonkeyDust> !info  mp3splt-gtk | michael_p
[13:21] <Siilwyn> What does this mean? Sounds like a funny background story: 'GStreamer plugins from the "bad" set' & 'GStreamer plugins from the "ugly" set'
[13:22] <rooted> hello , i need some help on unity-greeter , can anyone help ?
[13:22] <MonkeyDust> michael_p  avconv is a command, like ffmpeg
[13:24] <Siilwyn> rooted, don't ask to ask. (I think)
[13:24] <MonkeyDust> rooted  and better don't come here as !root
[13:24] <Sik> Does anybody here know a way to reboot an integrated webcam? rmmod/modprobe isn't doing the trick. HP Pavilion g6, if that matters ( ··)
[13:25] <rooted> i was trying to change unity-greeter background , and my mistake ive installed lightdm-gtk-greeter , witch i didnt like the layout of the login , so i removed it and restarted lightdm service, so i tryed to switch to lightdm user and rundfconf-editorbut with no luck, so i used gesettings set com.co etc background 'directory' with no luck any hin ?

[13:26] <mike99> hello,try to setup squid caching proxy,cant acces wan
[13:26] <MonkeyDust> mike99  is that a server? if yes, there's also #ubuntu-server
[13:26] <rooted> mike99 try to edit quid3 conf file , i had same problem before witch i forgot sorry.
[13:27] <KSX> bye
[13:27] <mike99> the squid.conf is my problem
[13:27] <rooted> MonkeyDust, hahaha just saw ur text.
[13:28] <EriC^^> rooted: you need to do some stuff
[13:28] <rooted> mike99 did you add your gateway configuration currectly ?
[13:28] <rooted> EriC^^, such as ?
[13:29] <mike99> network/interfaces and static ip you mean?
[13:29]  * rooted loves irc for that reason : live-support
[13:29] <EriC^^> rooted: type sudo -i first
[13:29] <EriC^^> rooted: yeah i was checking the commands somebody asked this like a month ago but i barely recall
[13:30] <rooted> hmmm
[13:30] <EriC^^> and i dont have logs so..
[13:30] <EriC^^> anyways type sudo -i
[13:30] <rooted> ouh..
[13:31] <EriC^^> then type xhost +SI:localuser:lightdm
[13:31] <EriC^^> it's in my history but i remember we did something else for it to work, maybe not we'll soon see i guess
[13:31] <EriC^^> then type su lightdm -s /bin/bash , then when you get the shell type dconf-editor
[13:32] <EriC^^> so you launch dconf editor as the lightdm user, then change the background as usual
[13:32] <EriC^^> ah ah i remember, i think it needed to go in the same place as the other backgrounds
[13:32] <rooted> Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
[13:32] <EriC^^> if it's in your home dir it won't work cause lightdm can't access it
[13:32] <rooted> same problem
[13:33] <gagalicious> i've ran ubuntu 14.04 for 3 days continiously 24/7 ... without any hiccups.. though only yakuake is buggy... would like to ask... any major hiccups? how many programs can i run at the same time? i'm using quad monitor screen with 36 workspaces... only 10 workspaces is filled. i have 24GB ram total and 14GB ram free and i would like to know how long does ubuntu 14.04 last.. before i need to reboot. does anyone know?
[13:33] <EriC^^> rooted: hold on ill brb
[13:33] <JunkHunk> hello I have a hl2270dw brother printer and several computers  in a network which use the printer wirelessly there is one computer which has no wifi then I need to plug this one directly to the printer...I can do it using ethernet cable or usb but as printer cups driver is configured via ip...I don't know how to tell printer to add the usb or eth cable pc...how would I achieve this? I cannot plug the printer directly to the router
[13:33] <JunkHunk> because there are no more eth points available
[13:33] <rooted> EriC^^, ok
[13:33] <EriC^^> rooted: wait, after sudo -i, then xhost +local
[13:34] <EriC^^> then type su lightdm -s /bin/bash
[13:34] <pbx> gagalicious, there's no simple answer to that question. you are clearly putting it through its paces with good resources. reboot when you've installed a system sofware update that requres a reboot.
[13:35] <lotuspsychje> !printer | JunkHunk
[13:35] <gagalicious> how many days continously have u guys ran ubuntu without a reboot? does anyone run it 24/7 like i do? and when u reboot, other than requiring updates/upgrades... why do u reboot?
[13:35] <rooted> EriC^^, +localuser:lightdm being added to access control list
[13:35] <rooted> X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
[13:36] <TJ-> gagalicious: reboots for kernel upgrades or libc, other than that generally a service restart is all that is needed

[13:36] <rooted> xhost:  bad hostname "local"
[13:37] <EriC^^> rooted: my bad xhost +local:
[13:37] <rooted> EriC^^, hahha ok
[13:38] <EriC^^> ok now su lightdm -s /bin/bash
[13:39] <rooted> yeah i forgot what was the problem .. i tried to sudo dconf-editor , but when i installed lightdm-gtk-greeter the unity conf file has been deleted. so dconf-editor will not show me anything just empty
[13:39] <publio> EriC^^: Hey, got the thing working last night, finally.  Had to install linux-image-extra to get my missing modules.  Thanks for all your help!
[13:40] <EriC^^> then dconf-editor

[13:40] <EriC^^> publio: great! no problem :)
[13:41] <gagalicious> i hate rebooting coz all my workspaces is nice where they should be
[13:41] <lotuspsychje> gagalicious: if you want long uptimes, try ubuntu server

[13:41] <gagalicious> lotuspsychje: i'm using for workstation
[13:41] <EriC^^> rooted: what do you mean? everything is deleted in dconf-editor or just the unity-greeter stuff?
[13:42] <gagalicious> ... anyhow, i'm here to ask... experience. how long does it last... that's all i'm asking. does anyone have an answer here to share? how long have u on your ubuntu desktop?
[13:42] <gagalicious> the longest without reboot
[13:42] <rooted> EriC^^,  the /ec/lightdm/unity-greeter.conf is deleted
[13:42] <EriC^^> gagalicious: probably a week or so
[13:42] <rooted> /etc/ sorry
[13:42] <lotuspsychje> gagalicious: this isnt a race against the clock right
[13:42] <gagalicious> otherwise, i really wish there's avery very very good macro scheduler / recorder that can help me "reset" all my workspaces when i reboot...
[13:43] <rooted> and now when  i start dcof-editor it will open with no file to change it values
[13:43] <gagalicious> lotuspsychje: at least i have some preparation instead of cursing
[13:43] <gagalicious> EriC^^: arrgghh... one week only? :I
[13:43] <gagalicious> i was hoping at least 6 months.
[13:44] <EriC^^> gagalicious: lol
[13:45] <EriC^^> gagalicious: in theory you could leave it running i guess, i usually dont turn the laptop off, but usually you end up rebooting due to low battery and shuts off or rebooting into a new kernel
[13:45] <gagalicious> any good macro scheduler equivalent that can record screen keyboard and mouse and replay it?
[13:45] <rooted> for example in dconf i can access the con tap nor apps ,desktop,org and system
[13:45] <lotuspsychje> gagalicious: you cant stay 6 months without updating packages that needs a reboot
[13:46] <EriC^^> rooted: hmm that's odd
[13:46] <rooted> shall i reinstall unity ?
[13:46] <rooted> EriC^^, ideed it is
[13:47] <EriC^^> try sudo apt-get install --reinstall dconf-editor
[13:47] <EriC^^> rooted: if you type gsettings list-recursively
[13:47] <EriC^^> does everything show up as usual?
[13:47] <lotuspsychje> gagalicious: talk to the #ubuntu-server guys whats the best solution for your workstation
[13:47] <TJ-> gagalicious: I only suspend/resume my laptop unless I'm doing kernel or hardware testing
[13:47] <gagalicious> lotuspsychje: ok.
[13:48] <rooted> EriC^^, its says alot of things
[13:48] <EriC^^> linux is pretty stable to be honest, sometimes i run uptime and i'm like whoa it's been .. since it was on, you don't really notice with it
[13:49] <EriC^^> i used to get a lot of kernel panics from youtube/firefox before but i haven't in a long time
[13:49] <TJ-> gagalicious: If you want to restore workspace layouts and re-open applications, I find KDE the best for that
[13:49] <EriC^^> must have fixed a lot of stuff in firefox or something
[13:50] <MonkeyDust> firefox makes my laptop heat up and shut down
[13:50] <EriC^^> rooted: ok, try reinstalling dconf-editor and if that doesn't work maybe try reinstalling its dependencies
[13:50] <MonkeyDust> so does VLC
[13:50] <gagalicious> TJ-: KDE? why ubuntu doesnt support kde "natively"?
[13:50] <gagalicious> really? kde? should i switch?
[13:50] <TJ-> MonkeyDust: Firefox doesn't - that'll be some add-on, or some page with Javascript on it
[13:50] <gagalicious> i'm more into stability
[13:50] <gagalicious> i dont like crashes
[13:51] <EriC^^> rooted: like apt-cache depends dconf-editor | awk '/Depends/ {print$2}' | xargs sudo apt-get -y install --reinstall
[13:51] <TJ-> gagalicious: I use Kubuntu which has  KDE  as the default DE
[13:51] <gagalicious> next time when gnome crash, i'll go with kde
[13:51] <TJ-> gagalicious: my laptop has 3 GPUs driving 6 monitors on 4 X screens... all that gets the applications restored on log-in
[13:52] <gagalicious> TJ-: on KDE? :)
[13:52] <rooted> : Unable to locate package <gsettings-backend>
[13:52] <gagalicious> what kind of laptop is that? show me... the model on google
[13:52] <EriC^^> rooted: no problem
[13:52] <TJ-> gagalicious: Kubuntu 14.04 to be exact
[13:52] <EriC^^> rooted: did it reinstall the rest?
[13:52] <rooted> no
[13:52] <polishpoliceforc> when i login to ubuntu studio xfce starts like normal. however whenever i go to firefox and open a file's location in downloads, it switches windows manager in that particular window only i just opened. And it changes the desktop's background to default ubuntu studio along with icon sizes / style...anyone have any idea why this is and how to fix it?
[13:53] <TJ-> gagalicious: Dell XPS with an external NVS420 connected via ExpressCard
[13:53] <gagalicious> TJ-: how often do u "reboot it"? really restore back to all the workspaces u have done... on login?
[13:53] <rooted> i guess , dconf still here
[13:53] <EriC^^> rooted: did it mention installing them though? unpacking etc. etc.
[13:53] <TJ-> gagalicious: If I'm doing kernel testing it might be 20 times a day; other times when I'm just programming it can go a month without anything but suspend/resume
[13:53] <rooted> no
[13:53] <rooted> E: Unable to locate package <gsettings-backend>
[13:54] <polishpoliceforc> ok i just did a pkill xfdesktop and that killed the new overlapping desktop and reverted to the original desktop.... i am now officially very confused as to what to even google to find a thread about this problem
[13:54] <rooted> after reading the packages , its give me the E: error
[13:54] <gagalicious> TJ-: thanks. very cool. i will do kde next time i guess... what about power loss.. will it affect anything else? can u still restore on login?
[13:55] <TJ-> gagalicious: No, unfortunately KDE doesn't seem to save layouts until you log-out, so unexpected crashes will resume with the layout that was active the last time I did a correct log-out
[13:56] <gagalicious> TJ-: ok.
[13:56] <gagalicious> anyone knows how to make gnome do what TJ:- mentioned on the kde part where u can restore the session on all workspaces upon logout/login and reboot?
[13:56] <EriC^^> rooted: try apt-cache depends dconf-editor | awk '/^Depends/ {print$2}' | sed -e 's/<//' -e 's/>//' | xargs sudo apt-get -y install --reinstall
[13:56] <TJ-> polishpoliceforc: That sounds like the PC has registered a protocol handler for file:// which is starting a new DE
[13:57] <TJ-> gagalicious: I know gnome 2.x used to have a setting to save and restart application state on log-out
[13:58] <rooted> EriC^^, its good now let me test dconf
[13:58] <TJ-> gagalicious: see this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/78207/save-unity-desktop-session
[13:58] <polishpoliceforc> TJ-, any idea how to fix that?

[13:59] <EriC^^> rooted: the values are empty?
[13:59] <TJ-> polishpoliceforc: find where the protocol handler has been configured. I'm not familiar with XFCE's config storage nowadays so I'd be using something like "grep -rn 'file://' $HOME/*" to find user-config clues to it
[14:00] <rooted> EriC^^,  the right box yeah , the left tree values are available and unclickable

[14:01] <TJ-> polishpoliceforc: This might be better since the first command I suggested won't search 'dot' directories or files. "grep -rn 'file://' $HOME/.[^.]*"

[14:04] <EriC^^> rooted: try sudo service lightdm restart and then login and try again, or reboot if you can
[14:04] <rooted> EriC^^,  will do now
[14:05] <gagalicious> EriC^^: I'm using the gnome classic fall back session.. there's no org.gnome.SessionManager... only org.gnome...
[14:05] <graingert> unity-tweak-tool --reset-unity can reset all your broken settings
[14:05] <EriC^^> gagalicious: MonkeyDust had asked you that
[14:06] <gagalicious> MonkeyDust: ok i see it now.. it's under gnome-session
[14:07] <gagalicious> i got it checked... how can i tell if the session is saved?
[14:07] <MonkeyDust> gagalicious  you should be able to 'save session' or so
[14:07] <gagalicious> MonkeyDust: yes but do i have to logout and login to find out?
[14:07] <gagalicious> if it works?
[14:08] <MonkeyDust> gagalicious  that's 'the dirty work' you have to go through, so you know it for the future
[14:08] <cartucho> deb
[14:10] <rooted> EriC^^,  same thing
[14:11] <EriC^^> rooted: does the terminal mention anything?
[14:12] <MonkeyDust> gagalicious  logout this time, for testing purpose, so you don't have surprises later on
[14:12] <EriC^^> rooted: are you clicking on the arrows to the left?
[14:13] <gagalicious> MonkeyDust: ok. will try. thanks :)

[14:23] <nicomachus> but there is a #yajl channel
[14:23] <EriC^^> goutham: dpkg -L yajl-tools | grep /bin should list the binaries the package gives
[14:23] <nicomachus> according to: https://lloyd.github.io/yajl/
[14:24] <nicomachus> you can also install from that github repo ^

[14:32] <EriC^^> goutham: you can use #include "/usr/local/include/yajl_tree.h"
[14:33] <EriC^^> goutham: or put them in /usr/include instead of /usr/local/include

[14:45] <apex> Hi guys ive been trying to create a vpn, but the connection never works. I added the gateway as my default gateway, and it keeps saying that the connection timed out when i try to join it. I'm new to vpn's, so can someone please help me?
[14:45] <nicomachus> apex: what type of vpn are you trying to set up?
[14:46] <apex> openvpn
[14:46] <EriC^^> rooted: maybe the user's one?
[14:46] <rooted> apex did you try flushing ur IPTable rules ?
[14:46] <EriC^^> ill brb
[14:46] <apex> no, can you tell me how?
[14:46] <rooted> EriC^^, no there are 2

[14:48] <apex> nicomachus: nothing happened.
[14:49] <apex> rooted: nothing happened
[14:49] <graingert> brackendawson: if it's a Java app you might be able to find where it creates the panel with a class installed in it's classpath
[14:49] <rooted> APEX, it will now.
[14:50] <graingert> and use that to create a unity panel applet
[14:50] <drmagoo> ·

[14:53] <brackendawson> I think I can downgrade unity to the OCDC provided one
[14:54] <brackendawson> Then pin it
[14:55] <apex> rooted? hello?

[14:56] <apex> rooted: i ran the command as root, and the vpn still didn't connect
[14:56] <brackendawson> We put one in OCDC, just trying to convince it to install
[14:57] <rooted>  apex, ur computer is the GATEWAY ,  or you are trying to connect with one ?
[14:57] <graingert> brackendawson: you can also pin to that specific repo
[14:58] <apex> rooted: i have set up a vpn, and added the gateway as my default gateway
[14:58] <rooted> apex, the one u are working with ? right now ?
[14:59] <apex> yes, the gateway im using by default
[15:00] <rooted> apex , so what is ur problem exactly ? did you add the other computers ipsin your network conf file and dns ?
[15:01] <apex> no, its just me. i set up the vpn myself for my computer alone.
[15:02] <rooted> apex, what ur problem = exactly ?
[15:03] <Aaruni> I have a pendrive, which appears under the disk utility like this : http://i.imgur.com/4Qwt9X2.png . How can I use it as a regular USB flash drive ?
[15:04] <apex> When I try to connect to the newly created vpn, it said the connection timed out. I tried tailing the file and it said that the gateway is an unknown host, so i think the problem is with the gateway. What should i enter for the gateway?
[15:05] <MonkeyDust_> apex  usually, it's your router/modem
[15:06] <MonkeyDust_> apex  192.168.0.1 or so
[15:06] <Grock> hey all
[15:06] <rooted> apex, if its a time-out, means there is a problem with your network configurations or your firewall , witch its maybe your router configurations
[15:06] <varunwachaspati> Hello, I have unknowingly removed some crucial GNOME packages(which I don't remember now). Now my Unity shell has berserk, Icons, Menus magnified. Shortcuts such as Ctrl+Alt+T,etc. and PrintScreen key not functionin, Unity tweak tool shows this error - The following schema is missing
[15:06] <Grock> whoops!
[15:07] <apex> so i should open a hole in the firewall to the port i'm connecting with?
[15:07] <varunwachaspati> Any pointers will be appreciated.. Thanks in advance
[15:07] <Grock> wish I could help varnu but i'm a newbie to ubuntu
[15:08] <Grock> UNIX/LINUX all of that
[15:08] <varunwachaspati> org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.touchpad - This is the missing package, can anyone help me install it...
[15:09] <OerHeks> varunwachaspati, my advaise, reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[15:09] <OerHeks> advice*
[15:09] <rooted> varunwachaspati, it happened with me when i updated my ubuntu , still couldnt fix it , so i intalled KDE , if you fix this problem please share
[15:09] <rooted> varunwachaspati,  but if your problem is not like mine, ty to reinstall gnome
[15:09] <rooted> varunwachaspati,  sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome
[15:09] <varunwachaspati> OerHeks, will I loose any of my data?
[15:10] <rooted> varunwachaspati, that why iinstalled KDE, so i can backup my files :)
[15:10] <Amm0n> varunwachaspati, you could check /var/log/dpkg.log to find what you've uninstalled and reinstall them
[15:10] <OerHeks> varunwachaspati, normally no, but you messed up, backup your data now is a good idea
[15:10] <brackendawson> ugh, libunity-core depends explicity on the latest unity version
[15:11] <OerHeks> Amm0n, that is what reinstall does too
[15:11] <apex> rooted, should i open a hole in my firewall to the port im connecting with
[15:11] <brackendawson> looks like an attempt to bend devs to their will
[15:11] <brackendawson> trying anyway
[15:12] <apex> rooted?
[15:12] <rooted> apex, try to check your router settings first then restart it
[15:13] <brackendawson> Works like a charm
[15:13] <brackendawson> fuck you canonical
[15:13] <apex> okay thanks.
[15:13] <brackendawson> except for all the good work you do for Linux
[15:13] <brackendawson> but not this tray crap
[15:13] <graingert> brackendawson: :p
[15:13] <MonkeyDust> brackendawson  don't do that again, keep it polite
[15:13] <graingert> brackendawson: you should really fix it upstream
[15:14] <brackendawson> There's 4 applications I use.
[15:14] <graingert> brackendawson: you've got access to the source right? What apps do you need that still use a panel?
[15:14] <brackendawson> 2 are corperate security
[15:14] <graingert> I never ran those
[15:14] <brackendawson> no access to source, 0% chance of update
[15:14] <brackendawson> gbso is easy
[15:14] <brackendawson> notes too, -100% chance of update
[15:15] <graingert> brackendawson: are you on the fancy VPN that's integrated with network-manager?
[15:15] <brackendawson> No, that got binned
[15:15] <graingert> :(
[15:15] <graingert> but it was awesome
[15:15] <brackendawson> Fortunately AT&T use a window you have to keep open, rather than a tray icon
[15:16] <graingert> nobody's made an openvpn docker for that yet then?
[15:16] <MonkeyDust> brackendawson  keep this channel free for support questions, disccussion in #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:16] <brackendawson> I had a look

I set that up myself. Is there a way to install a package, and have it ignore a dependency (in this case default-jre)?
[15:45] <newbie211> Ok from now onwards I will do it . But waht is the solution...I am unable to stop the HDD in my windows boot. Is it hapenning because of that ?

[15:56] <ponA> hey guys, i am trying to use the command line to reencode some files via mkvmerge on my /samba/anonymous directory
[15:57] <ponA> the reencode works but if i try to delete the file in windows it says i have to get permission of the user unix/root
[15:57] <ponA> so i checked the permissions of a file i can delete and got "-rwxr--r--. 1 nobody nobody 1743564736 Jul  6 01:58 FILENAME"
[15:58] <bekks> ponA: How does your windows access the files you want to delete? CIFS fileshare? NTFS filesystem?
[15:58] <Tzunamii> ponA: As what user are you using mkvmerge?
[15:59] <ponA> mkvmerge is run as root
[15:59] <Tzunamii> umm..
[15:59] <ponA> so the file i cant delete has root:root as users and group
[15:59] <ponA> chown -c nobody:nobody didnt help, although now it looks the same as every other file i can delete if i use ls -l
[16:00] <Tzunamii> ponA: Always try to use a non-root account when you are doing non-admin tasks. Use 'sudo' when you need to do admin tasks instead of logging into the root account.
[16:01] <madhavas> q
[16:01] <OerHeks> get the groups right, mkvmerge running as root is your problem
[16:01] <bekks> ponA: Why would setting it to nobody:nobody help? Thats pointless.
[16:01] <ponA> bekks: i am not sure, i installed this a while ago, i would guess ntfs as i cant remember cifs
[16:02] <bekks> ponA: Well, how do you access your files? On the same computer? On a network share?
[16:03] <ponA> i am running a network share, mkvmerge is run on the same machine, i access the files via windows network share
[16:03] <ioria> ponA, your shared is in /etc/samba/anonymous ?
[16:03] <ponA> yes
[16:03] <ioria> ponA, so you need sudo to copy files in there
[16:04] <ioria> ponA, and then the file becomes root:root
[16:05] <ciscam> Hi! I just mounted a cifs share from my freenas server with an account that has full_set nfsv4 permissions. Still, I can't seem to get the write_acl permission right
[16:05] <ioria> ponA, can you ls -l /etc/samba/anomymous ?
[16:05] <ponA> i'll check
[16:06] <ponA> yes, i get "drwxr-xr-x. 134 nobody nobody 28672 Jul  6 17:51 Downloads"
[16:06] <ciscam> It's definitely the way I mounted it, since an android or windows machine have no problems chmoding objects inside the share
[16:06] <ioria> ponA, what is Downloads ?
[16:07] <ponA> that is a folder inside /samba/anonymous
[16:07] <Snoo19544> hey, I'm having an issue with my brain where I can't figure out why I can't get logs of BIND not starting on a 15.04 ubuntu VPS. syslog is always empty and bind fails hard when trying to start
[16:07] <ioria> ponA, check the files, not the dir
[16:08] <Tzunamii> ciscam: I'm confused... what has CIFS has to do with NFS permissions?
[16:08] <ponA> there are no files in anonymous, in downloads there are files and they look like "-rwxr--r--.  1 nobody nobody    5216104 Feb  6 11:19 70616g.pdf"
[16:09] <ciscam> Tzunamii, cifs defines how I need to mount it to get the right permissions on my client ubuntu machine, doesn't it?
[16:09] <ponA> which was the reason why i tried to alter root:root into nobody:nobody using chown
[16:10] <SLAiNTRAX> which service is required to make syslog work?
[16:10] <Tzunamii> ciscam: In short, CIFS is one way to mount files (emulating the Windows' share mechanics) and NFS is a whole other bisquit
[16:10] <Tzunamii> ciscam: They have nothing to do with eachother
[16:10] <ciscam> Tzunamii, I tried using an nfs share first, but didn't find a way to authenticate sans Kerberos.. so cifs it is for me
[16:11] <ioria_2> ponA check the files not the dir
[16:11] <ciscam> authentication works, took a while to find out that I need the 'nounix' option to get rw permissions for non-root users, now it's write_acl and write_owner that's missing for both users and root
[16:12] <yinfei> sdfsdf
[16:12] <Tzunamii> ciscam: I recommend reading up on CIFS and forget about NFS then
[16:12] <yinfei> where are you ?
[16:13] <MonkeyDust> yinfei  it works, we can see you... this is the ubuntu support channel
[16:13] <lurkr> Anyone using Ubuntu 14.04 and gnome-session-flashback?
[16:13] <ciscam> Tzunamii, I am for one and a half hour now. Wasn't able to find anything specifically explaining on how to grant users/root write_acl and write_owner permissions inside a mount
[16:14] <TechMonger> hello all
[16:15] <ciscam> What I do know is that the problem is client-side, ubuntu specific, as my android phone and windows machine, using the same credentials, have no problem utilizing their granted chmod/chown permissions
[16:16] <lurkr> gnome-session-flashback is nice and lean, but use compiz (or metacity) - will this be supported in 16.04?
[16:16] <jhutchins> Is there a simple web photo gallery that automatically adds new pictures and doesn't create alot of overhead?
[16:17] <TechMonger> I tried to log onto a semi-old ubuntu drive the other day and I could not remember the password. I tried to boot grub then edit the linux line with rw init=/bin/bash but it does not work
[16:17] <TechMonger> I think it might be because i encrypted the drive
[16:18] <rory> TechMonger: If the drive is encrypted and you've forgotten your password, would you WANT there to be a way to get in?
[16:18] <ciscam> jhutchins, jalbum is nice and flexible and lightweight
[16:18] <rory> TechMonger: That would defeat the entire point of encrypting it in the first place
[16:19] <jhutchins> ciscam: linux based.
[16:19] <EriC^^> TechMonger: did you forget the passphrase too?
[16:20] <ciscam> jhutchins, web based.
[16:21] <ciscam> I thought, asking for a web photo gallery, a web app might be a valid option
[16:21] <jhutchins> ciscam: Windows?  Seriously?
[16:21] <bekks> ciscam: Just use "Gallery" :)
[16:21] <TJ-> TechMonger: if the root files-system is encrypted the initrd scripts at boot-time should ask you for the pass-phrase
[16:22] <ciscam> wat?
[16:22] <TechMonger> TJ hmm
[16:25] <v0lksman> anyone here able to help with log rotation?  I can't seem to get logrotate to rotate my apache logs
[16:25] <TJ-> TechMonger: you can always force a drop to shell in the initrd with "break=init" or even earlier, see the file "/usr/share/initramfs-tools/init" and grep for "maybe_break" to learn all the "break=XXXX" choices there are
[16:26] <TJ-> TechMonger: FYI: "/usr/share/initramfs-tools/init" is the script that is executed by the kernel when initrd.img is loaded
[16:26] <TechMonger> tj i am at work now. i will be back here when i get home
[16:27] <OerHeks> v0lksman, good tutor https://serversforhackers.com/managing-logs-with-logrotate
[16:31] <Glaisher> Why would a system (14.04) freeze so frequently and randomly?
[16:32] <bekks> Because of a gazillion of possible reasons.
[16:32] <Glaisher> Indeed. :)
[16:32] <Glaisher> anything I can try?
[16:32] <MonkeyDust> Glaisher  start from the beginning
[16:32] <arunpyasi> Glaisher: you have SWAP ?
[16:33] <Glaisher> never heard of that.. so, no I guess
[16:33] <bekks> Glaisher: Did you investigate te logs already?
[16:33] <Glaisher> no
[16:33] <Glaisher> I don't know what to look for..
[16:33] <arunpyasi> Aahh Newbie
[16:33] <bekks> We neither because of the gazillions of reasons.
[16:34] <arunpyasi> just moved to Ubuntu ? Glaisher
[16:34] <Glaisher> I used to use ubuntu 12 some months ago
[16:34] <Glaisher> and then switched to windows
[16:34] <Glaisher> and then 14.04 now
[16:35] <boerax> Glaisher: sysctl vm.swappiness
[16:35] <Glaisher> It used to work totally fine back then
[16:35] <Glaisher> vm.swappiness = 60
[16:35] <v0lksman> OerHeks: thanks. My problem seems to revolve around permissions but here is a paste, can you see why it doesn't rotate out?  https://dpaste.de/q8d7
[16:36] <boerax> Ask an expert over here if the swap value is correct in combination with your computer
[16:37] <Glaisher> ok.. where is the expert I should ping? :)
[16:37] <boerax> Glaisher: gksudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf opens the file. change the value of vm.swappiness: 60 to " 10" instead
[16:37] <v0lksman> Glaisher: why are you hitting swap?
[16:37] <bekks> Glaisher: Dont touch that file, your swapiness is totally ok.
[16:37] <bekks> Glaisher: Pastebin "free -m" instead.
[16:37] <Glaisher> what does swappiness do?
[16:38] <boerax> bekks: Isnt it better to downgrade the value in case of a slow computer with less RAM?
[16:38] <bekks> Glaisher: It controls when your computer starts to swap.
[16:38] <bekks> boerax: "in case" - lets find out wether "it's the case" or not.
[16:39] <abidjon> how do u download videos from other sites
[16:39] <Glaisher> https://dpaste.de/BHMx
[16:39] <Glaisher> doubt that its RAM or sth
[16:39] <Glaisher> even Windows doesn't freeze
[16:39] <bekks> Glaisher: you have 1.8G RAM, and only 1.1G used.
[16:39] <bekks> Glaisher: So take a look at the logs.
[16:40] <Glaisher> what should I look for in the logs?
[16:40] <v0lksman> OerHeks: nvm..I think I got it...-v instead of -d to test
[16:40] <v0lksman> ll
[16:40] <bekks> Glaisher: Anomalies. It's hard to tell what to look for when we dont know what happens.
[16:41] <Glaisher> I'm not used to this type of logs you know.. I know what to look for in php/apache type of logs ;)
[16:42] <OerHeks> v0lksman, ah, missed that
[16:43] <boerax> i need som BitchX for 2night
[16:44] <OerHeks> boerax, not in our repos
[16:44] <boerax> i know ;-P
[16:45] <boerax> long  time ago i used that
[16:46] <hajj> hello fellas
[16:46] <hajj> can someone help me
[16:47] <lotuspsychje> !ask | hajj
[16:47] <hajj> i want to download idm in ubuntu
[16:47] <TJ-> Glaisher: Is this a Desktop freeze? does it affect mouse movement just screen updates. Very often that can be a symptom of a failing disk drive and checking /var/log/kern.log reveals repeated I/O errors
[16:48] <hajj> okay and thanks @lotuspsy
[16:48] <Glaisher> TJ-: everything freezes.. I've to reboot from the power switch each time
[16:48] <lotuspsychje> hajj: http://askubuntu.com/questions/366525/idm-like-softwares-in-ubuntu
[16:49] <hajj> okay
[16:50] <hajj> but am new in ubuntu..............
[16:50] <TJ-> Glaisher: ouch! That'd make me suspect overheating
[16:50] <Glaisher> I've no idea why that would happen...
[16:51] <lotuspsychje> !manual | hajj
[16:51] <garrettkajmowicz> How can I get Ubuntu to update the version of VMWare Horizon View Client they have in their repository? The version they have is years old.
[16:52] <hajj> can i connect my ipad and sync music over it ?
[16:53] <lotuspsychje> garrettkajmowicz: package name and ubuntu version?
[16:55] <garrettkajmowicz> lotuspsychje: vmware-view-client (2.2.0-0ubuntu0.14.04).  Current software version: https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/details?downloadGroup=VIEWCLIENTS_LINUX_34&productId=421&rPId=8308
[16:55] <hajj> ubuntu 15.10 Alpha
[16:55] <hajj> 32bit
[16:55] <lotuspsychje> !wily | hajj
[16:56] <OerHeks> garrettkajmowicz, https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/details?downloadGroup=VIEWCLIENTS_LINUX_34&productId=421&rPId=8308  gives me 3.4
[16:57] <hajj> okay and where can i discuss that ?
[16:57] <garrettkajmowicz> OerHeks: That's correct. The version which the Ubuntu repository has is 2.2, which is incompatible with more recent servers.
[16:57] <lotuspsychje> hajj: the trigger names the right channel
[16:57] <hajj> hmmm
[16:57] <lotuspsychje> hajj: #ubuntu+1
[16:58] <lotuspsychje> !latest | garrettkajmowicz
[16:58] <OerHeks> garrettkajmowicz, ubuntu repo's?? VMM is the open source version
[16:58] <Micromus> So I'm downloading 14.04 mini.iso from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD - Why does it still install instead 15.04!?!?
[16:58] <OerHeks> not  VMWare Horizon View Client
[17:00] <Gill> Hey guys. I am having issues configuring a VLAN Tag on 1 interface. can anyone help me out please?
[17:00] <hajj> wired though
[17:01] <garrettkajmowicz> lotuspsychje: 2.2.0 is 3 years old. It also doesn't work with more recent servers, which is why this is an issue.
[17:01] <hajj> am out of here guys will be back at 00:00
[17:02] <arvislacis> Can anyone help with this? http://pastebin.com/TwAJ29ya
[17:02] <Charles_jonsen> Hey guys. I used Ctrl+Alt+F1 to enter terminal. Please how do I exit?
[17:02] <lotuspsychje> !info vmware-view-client
[17:02] <OerHeks> garrettkajmowicz, so get the latest from vmware website?
[17:02] <garrettkajmowicz> OerHeks: I'm looking in aptitude and the only vmm I see is virtual mail manager.
[17:02] <lotuspsychje> !info vmware-view-client trusty
[17:03] <garrettkajmowicz> OerHeks: Package installation is a pain. Here's the details of the steps required to get it to work: https://communities.vmware.com/message/2483258
[17:03] <OerHeks> !info vmware-manager
[17:03] <garrettkajmowicz> lotuspsychje: It's in the partner repo
[17:04] <dgm816> Charles_jonsen, alt-f7
[17:04] <drmagoo> Gill: what do you need help with ?
[17:04] <Gill> i cant get it to spak on the vlan interface but i just found out that I can make the switch U and not have to deal with the config on the server
[17:04] <Gill> gonna try that real quick
[17:04] <Gill> thanks drmagoo
[17:05] <garrettkajmowicz> OerHeks: That would let me manage vmware virtual machines from a command line. It doesn't look like it would let me view the clients themselves. Hence the vmware horizon view client.
[17:05] <Charles_jonsen> dgm816 thanks so much
[17:05] <drmagoo> Gill: ok =) let me know if there are any issues
[17:07] <Gill> thanks!! :)
[17:07] <Gill> trying it now

[17:24] <jessy> hi there.
[17:24] <Charles_jonsen> jessy hi
[17:24] <jessy> I'm having trouble connecting my epson nx230 printer to the wifi router
[17:25] <Charles_jonsen> What problem exactly?
[17:26] <manuel_> hola
[17:26] <jessy> Charles_jonsen, I can connect the printer using the USB cable
[17:27] <lotuspsychje> !es | manuel_
[17:27] <jessy> Charles_jonsen, but cant find the way to set up the wifi connection to the router
[17:31] <Charles_jonsen> jessy you're probably using an old distribution of Ubuntu and you may lack the drivers to connect with the printer using USB. More recent distros are pretty straight forward
[17:32] <jessy> I AM able to connect using USB cable
[17:32] <jessy> Charles_jonsen, My problem is setting up the printer to connect to the router
[17:34] <Austneal> I'm trying to install "ircd-hybrid" IRC server, but I keep getting the error "Unable to locate package ircd-hybrid"... Any ideas on what to do next? I've tried  apt-get update with no success
[17:34] <Charles_jonsen> Anyone able to help jessy with that?
[17:36] <Rave1> jessy  is there some sort of  "connect to WIFI" in the printers menu
[17:36] <jessy> Rave1, yes
[17:36] <Rave1> not really an ubuntu issue though
[17:36] <Rave1> so use the printer software to connect
[17:37] <jessy> Rave1, that is my problem
[17:37] <jessy> Rave1, What is the software to configure an Epson NX230's wifi?
[17:37] <mistralol> jessy: but thats a problem between the printer and your router. neither of which are running ubuntu
[17:37] <Austneal> I'm trying to install "ircd-hybrid" IRC server on Ubuntu server, but I keep getting the error "Unable to locate package ircd-hybrid"... Any ideas on what to do next? I've tried  apt-get update with no success
[17:38] <bekks> jessy: The software supplied on the CD which is shipped with the printer.
[17:38] <Rave1> and  it may be an router or  epson problem  not the ubuntu OS
[17:39] <jessy> Rave1, I thought you help people using Ubuntu?
[17:39] <Rave1> jessy the printer has its own software to connect to the router
[17:39] <c0b> hi, is there an official document on how ubuntu packages maintenance works? I'm curious on how to get started backporting bugfixes
[17:39] <BBLLCC> my machine needs 5 minutes to load and it has 90GB free space. I think my machine fully checks itself for errors every time I boot it. How do I check if it is the case and how do I edit it?
[17:39] <mistralol> BBLLCC: are you shutting it down correctly. The checks should not be required
[17:40] <BBLLCC> yes i shut it down correclty
[17:40] <mistralol> does it actually shut its self all the way down?
[17:40] <jessy> Rave1, Right. So can you help me to configure my printer?
[17:40] <Rave1> jessy does it connect to the router?
[17:41] <mistralol> jessy: http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?UseCookie=yes&infoType=FAQ&oid=182103&prodoid=63091200&foid=229598
[17:41] <jessy> Rave1, I can't find software for Ubuntu that let me configure the printer properly
[17:41] <Rave1> jessy   look in the printer menu  in your ubuntu   select network printer and it should scan and see your printer
[17:41] <mistralol> I doubt epson have support for running the software under ubuntu. This is not ubuntu's fault it is epson's
[17:42] <bekks> jessy: So use the software epson ships on the cd.
[17:42] <Rave1> honestly no idea if it will be there  never owned and epson
[17:42] <BBLLCC> mistralol, yes
[17:42] <Gill> drmagoo: hey setting it to U didnt work
[17:43] <Sewerrat> can anyone reccomend a cheap chromebook which works well with ubuntu?
[17:43] <mistralol> BBLLCC: it is doing a filesystem scan on boot which is what takes the time?
[17:43] <Gill> was telling me my network was unreachable
[17:43] <jessy> bekks, I should know that manufacturers never provide software for linux users
[17:43] <Gill> So I guess I need to set it back to T and figure out why my vlan setup didnt work?
[17:43] <mistralol> jessy: do the printer have a network port in it as well as wifi?
[17:43] <jessy> bekks, we rely on the community
[17:43] <Austneal> I'm trying to install "ircd-hybrid" IRC server on Ubuntu server, but I keep getting the error "Unable to locate package ircd-hybrid"... Any ideas on what to do next? I've tried  apt-get update with no success
[17:44] <BBLLCC> mistralol, i believe so but cannot be sure
[17:44] <jessy> mistralol, no
[17:44] <bekks> jessy: So how does that change that you have to use the software shipped with the printer?
[17:44] <Rave1> jessy have you even tried  to  use   "printers" in the menu
[17:44] <insane> #ubuntu-artwork
[17:45] <mistralol> jessy: then the only way to get it to work is run their software under windows. or mayby try wine? :D
[17:45] <Rave1> jessy  ubuntu has good built in support for many printers
[17:45] <jessy> mistralol, someone configured it for me some time ago and I had to change the router and not it doesn't work any more
[17:46] <jessy> Rave1, I got it printing using a USB cable
[17:46] <mistralol> BBLLCC: it checks every time?
[17:46] <mistralol> jessy: if it prints with usb cable whats the problem?
[17:46] <jessy> Rave1, my problem is to configure printer's wifi connection
[17:46] <mistralol> which yu will need to do from windows
[17:46] <bekks> jessy: The answer and possible solutions have already been given.
[17:47] <mistralol> if you phone epson they will talk you though it
[17:47] <Rave1> jessy   so in that same menu  if it connected to the router   select network printer rather than USB connected printer
[17:47] <bekks> Rave1: Which doesnt configure the printer to be using his wifi.
[17:47] <BBLLCC> yes mistralol
[17:48] <Rave1> bekks   it does for 2 HP printers right here  why would epson be any different
[17:48] <jessy> Rave1, the printer is an old Epson NX230
[17:48] <mistralol> BBLLCC: something is probably triggering the check. Which is really what to find out. It normally doesnt check unless it s marked as dirty for some reason
[17:48] <mistralol> BBLLCC: are you duel boot or anything like that?
[17:48] <jessy> Rave1, and does not have a digital menu.
[17:48] <BBLLCC> no
[17:48] <bekks> Rave1: It doesnt for any HP printers. Take it out of the box, and just selecting network rinter does not configure an IP address on the printer, after not selecting the wifi and not entering the wifi credentials.
[17:48] <Rave1> jessy   so you are wasting your time and ours
[17:49] <bekks> Rave1: The problem is at a lower lever than you think.
[17:49] <jessy> Rave1, thanks a lot for your help
[17:49] <bekks> jessy: You need some Windows to run the Epson software.
[17:49] <Rave1> bekks  honestly   mine connected basicly auto-magicly
[17:49] <jessy> bekks, thanks guys
[17:50] <jiulwe> Curious why Firefox 39 is taking so long to be updated on Ubuntu
[17:50] <insane> freenode.net
[17:50] <insane> #freenode
[17:51] <drmagoo> Gill: sorry, so what are you trying to do? Just enable a vlan?
[17:52] <Gill> drmagoo: no problemo. Yes I am trying to tag a vlan
[17:52] <Gill> basicaly want the server to be on VLAN 20
[17:52] <Gill> I killed my switch though I am in the process of factory resetting it
[17:52] <mistralol> BBLLCC: i would suggest turning off the splash and see what it is really doing and confirm it is doing a fs check
[17:52] <Gill> setting the port to U did nothing
[17:53] <drmagoo> Gill: you have installed the vlan package ?
[17:53] <Gill> yes
[17:53] <Gill> will you be around in like 5 minutes?
[17:53] <jiulwe> anybody have an ETA on when Ubuntu will receive Firefox 39
[17:53] <drmagoo> yes I will be
[17:53] <JunkHunk> hi could anyone help me to connect to my printer using eth1?
[17:54] <Gill> cool thanks brb sorry I just dont have that switch right now so nothing will work
[17:54] <jiulwe> @junk, what kind of printer
[17:54] <Austneal> Which you can probably get with Chrome's dev tools :P
[17:54] <JunkHunk> I use eth0 to get dsl connection from my router
[17:54] <Austneal> oops... ignore me
[17:54] <JunkHunk> its a brother
[17:54] <Arduino> why dont you connect your printer to your network
[17:54] <Austneal> I'm trying to install "ircd-hybrid" IRC server on Ubuntu server, but I keep getting the error "Unable to locate package ircd-hybrid"... Any ideas on what to do next? I've tried  apt-get update with no success
[17:54] <jiulwe> @junk, just attach printer to a switch
[17:54] <JunkHunk> because I have no more router ports
[17:54] <bekks> !info ircd-hybrid
[17:54] <jiulwe> buy a switch, hold on a sec
[17:54] <Arduino> use a switch
[17:55] <viknesh> i just found flat ui theme for terminal here https://goo.gl/W7iLMj , i extracted the archive and found to have a xml file , how could i use it to change the theme for terminal
[17:55] <JunkHunk> it is  wireless for the rest of computers but mines has no wifi
[17:55] <Arduino> your computer can't act like a switch
[17:55] <bekks> Austneal: Which Ubuntu release do you use?
[17:55] <jiulwe> this is a good switch to buy: http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-SG105-Gigabit-Ethernet-Desktop/dp/B00A128S24/ref=sr_1_2/184-3775422-8675101?ie=UTF8&qid=1436205307&sr=8-2&keywords=tplink+switch
[17:55] <JunkHunk> no?
[17:55] <JunkHunk> it is ubuntu
[17:55] <bekks> jessy: No, it' a TP-Link :)
[17:55] <viknesh> i guess this not the right place to ask , just asking , if anybody have experience on it
[17:55] <JunkHunk> cannot ubuntu be turned into a switch?
[17:55] <Arduino> no
[17:55] <bekks> Arduino: Of course it can.
[17:56] <JunkHunk> I knew it!
[17:56] <bekks> Arduino: All you need are sufficient networking ports.
[17:56] <jiulwe> anybody know how I can find out about Ubuntu being updated to Firefox 39
[17:56] <JunkHunk> I have two network cards
[17:56] <JunkHunk> one connects my computer to the router
[17:56] <Arduino> that changes things
[17:56] <JunkHunk> I will use the other to connect to the printer
[17:56] <Arduino> OH
[17:57] <Austneal> bekks: 12.10
[17:57] <bekks> !12.10
[17:57] <bekks> Austneal: Update to a supported release please.
[17:57] <JunkHunk> bekks how to configure an ubuntu switch?
[17:58] <baja> hi people i have downloaded netbeans 8.0.2linux.sh how do i run it?
[17:58] <Austneal> bekks: Ok, will check back
[17:58] <Arduino> you should use ubuntu 14
[17:58] <baja> so that i can install netbeans
[17:58] <bekks> JunkHunk: Enable routing and setting up iptables.
[17:58] <baja> any one help
[17:59] <JunkHunk> bekks is that needed? I dont want internet for the printer just to send jobs to it from my pc
[17:59] <Arduino> baja: run it from a terminal
[17:59] <baja> how?
[17:59] <Arduino> baja: navigate to it a execute it
[17:59] <Austneal> bekks: I seem to have a problem... http://pastebin.com/avfJwY5D
[17:59] <baja> ok
[18:00] <Arduino> if it is a script use ./name of script
[18:00] <JunkHunk> bekks the printer has a working ip already...
[18:00] <bekks> Austneal: You have that issue since May 2014.
[18:00] <baja> what is the command to execute im already there
[18:00] <bekks> !eolupgrade | Austneal
[18:01] <Arduino> baja: enter ./the name of the file you want to execute
[18:01] <Austneal> bekks: Am I going to have to do a fresh install? >.>
[18:01] <bekks> Austneal: No. You have to read the link given by ubottu.
[18:01] <OerHeks> baja, what howto are you using?
[18:02] <Arduino> bye
[18:03] <BBLLCC> how do I turn off splash?
[18:03] <Austneal> bekks: I'm stuck on step one... it's telling me to run the "deb" command, but I'm getting "No command 'deb' found"
[18:04] <bekks> Austneal: Which howto are you following?
[18:04] <ErfanBs> when i plug my external hard i see this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11832026/
[18:04] <Austneal> The 2nd one
[18:04] <bekks> Austneal: So read it closely. It clearly doesnt tell you to run any "deb" command.
[18:05] <bekks> It tells you: "To begin the upgrade, make sure you have a sources.list like the following, with CODENAME being your release, e.g. quantal. "
[18:05] <zykotick9> Austneal: deb isn't a command, i think you are looking at the contents of sources.list
[18:05] <OerHeks> ErfanBs, use windows to do a chkdsk, ntfs is unhealty
[18:05] <Austneal> zykotick9: oh boy... so where is sources.list located? :/
[18:06] <zykotick9> Austneal: /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:06] <Austneal> zykotick9: So, should I overwrite my sources.list file with that one?
[18:07] <Austneal> zykotick9: or just append that?
[18:07] <zykotick9> Austneal: editing/replacing is probably a better plan...
[18:12] <Austneal> zykotick9: That didnt seem to work... still getting the error
[18:13] <zykotick9> Austneal: did you "sudo apt-get update" after making the change?
[18:14] <zykotick9> Austneal: warning, i've never actually done an EOL upgrade myself...
[18:14] <Austneal> zykotick9: I may have had a typo in my sources.list... going to correct and retry
[18:16] <reactormonk> keyword too short (keywords need to have at least two characters) <- how do I search for R?
[18:16] <reactormonk> via http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[18:16] <Austneal> zykotick9: Ok, that did a little more... different error this time: http://pastebin.com/jRv5D5uY
[18:17] <reactormonk> Also, lucene is like 10 years old, get your game up guys :-/
[18:17] <zykotick9> Austneal: i don't go to pastebin.com, mind using paste.ubuntu.com or something?
[18:17] <hobbet1> i am on lubuntu and my synaptic is coming up with this error Failed to fetch http://mirrors.namecheap.com/ubuntu/dists/vivid-security/main/i18n/Translation-en  Hash Sum mismatch
[18:17] <hobbet1> Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[18:17] <ObrienDave> reactormonk, you don't. keyword too short (keywords need to have at least two characters) <- how do I search for R? seriously?

[18:18] <Gill> drmagoo: ok cool im ready now
[18:18] <Gill> switch it set up again
[18:18] <Gill> thanks for waiting for me
[18:18] <lapidary> upgraded to vivid; no problems!  I’m going to high-5 my toddler for sleeping through the upgrade :-)
[18:18] <reactormonk> ObrienDave, :-/ apparently site:packages.ubuntu.com is the way to go. Should work.
[18:19] <drmagoo> Gill: np, tell me what it is you are trying to do
[18:19] <zykotick9> Austneal: thanks for re-pasting.  sorry that error doesn't mean anything to me?!?  i've got no suggestions... mind sharing your current sources.list file perhaps?
[18:19] <Gill> I have a voice server on my network. So I am trying to add it to the voice VLAN (20)
[18:19] <Austneal> zykotick9: current sources.list http://paste.ubuntu.com/11832111/
[18:19] <Gill> so originally I had the server port on the switch set as T and I was trying to configureit through ubuntu
[18:19] <Gill> t
[18:20] <Gill> Then I realized I could set it as U and not have to deal with more configs so I tried that but it didnt work
[18:20] <Gill> so now I am back to trying T with the ubuntu config
[18:20] <Gill> before when it was T I could ping the system during boot but then it would become unresponsive
[18:20] <Gill> after boot
[18:21] <zykotick9> Austneal: what version are you using right now?  note: you can't skip releases...
[18:21] <TJ-> Gill: only usually Tag VLANs connected to upstream ports
[18:21] <drmagoo> Gill: have you read this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/vlan
[18:21] <Austneal> zykotick9: I'm on 12.10 right now
[18:21] <Gill> yes i started there drmagoo
[18:22] <Gill> TJ-: so you dont tag the devices?
[18:22] <OerHeks> 12.10>13.04>13.10>14.04 ... i would reinstall, Austneal
[18:22] <TJ-> Gill: I have vlan99 on eth1 <> untagged switch port
[18:22] <Austneal> OerHeks: I'd REALLY rather not
[18:23] <Gill> now im even more confused
[18:23] <Gill> but the network is down
[18:23] <Gill> so I need to figure it out
[18:23] <drmagoo> Gill: ok, slow down. Do you have console/cli access to the machine ?
[18:23] <Austneal> zykotick9: I'm not seeing a place to choose what its updating to. Am I missing something?
[18:24] <TJ-> Gill:  do you it configured via Network Manager, or by ifup/down ?
[18:24] <TJ-> Gill ^want^
[18:24] <Gill> drmagoo: yes i do
[18:25] <Gill> TJ-: i dont know what the diff is its Ubuntu server
[18:25] <TJ-> Gill: ifupdown then
[18:25] <zykotick9> Austneal: you are currently trying to upgrade using quantal (12.10).  Sorry, I'm just not familiar enough with this EOL process to be assistance.  SORRY!  Best of luck.
[18:25] <TJ-> Gill:  I'll pastebin the config from one of my servers for you
[18:26] <Gill> thanks!
[18:26] <Austneal> zykotick9: Are you saying that I was trying to upgrade TO quantal?
[18:26] <Austneal> If so, that might be my problem....
[18:27] <OerHeks> Austneal, you do need old-release trick to be able to upgrade to 13.04
[18:27] <Jeffy> Hey guys, is anyone aware of 'ROS' from Ros.Org?
[18:27] <OerHeks> !oelupgrade
[18:27] <OerHeks> !eolupgrade
[18:27] <Austneal> OerHeks: That's what I'm currently following
[18:28] <OerHeks> Austneal, oke, should work AFAIK
[18:28] <pragmaticenigma> !offtopic | Jeffy
[18:28] <Gill> oh i think i just got it!!
[18:28] <Gill> my firewall was to blame :(
[18:28] <baja_> how do i release space for booot
[18:28] <Gill> aaahhhhh so much wasted time
[18:28] <Gill> thanks drmagoo  and TJ- ! :)
[18:28] <TJ-> Gill FYI http://paste.ubuntu.com/11832153/
[18:29] <baja_> i was trying to download updates  but it said i have no enough boot space and i should clear
[18:29] <Gill> thanks TJ
[18:29] <baja_> how do i do?
[18:29] <Gill> yea mine is the same but DHCP
[18:29] <Jeffy> Does anyone know how to make 'rosmake --rosdep-install' work?
[18:29] <zykotick9> OerHeks: should Austneal's sources be talking about quantal (12.10) the version they are on, or the next release 13.04?
[18:29] <OerHeks> zykotick9, the current version, to get update manager core
[18:30] <baja_> how do i  make free boot space
[18:30] <zykotick9> Austneal: ^ so looks like it should be saying quantal... sorry, i gots nothin'.  good luck.
[18:31] <Austneal> OerHeks: this is my current sources.list, but it doesnt seem to be working: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11832111/
[18:32] <EriC^^> baja: type dpkg -l | grep linux-image and pastebin it
[18:32] <EriC^^> baja: also type uname -r and paste here
[18:32] <baja> eric
[18:34] <OerHeks> Austneal, what happens when you update & upgrade/
[18:34] <OerHeks> cannot say anything without data
[18:34] <baja> grep???
[18:34] <EriC^^> baja: yeah
[18:34] <EriC^^> baja: type dpkg -l | grep linux-image
[18:34] <Austneal> OerHeks: This error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11832094/
[18:35] <zykotick9> Austneal: for future - I'd suggest upgrading before your version becomes EOL.  The regular ubuntu release are only supported for 5 minutes these days, so using LTS releases is a lot less upgrading.
[18:35] <Austneal> zykotick9: I had an LTS on it about 10 minutes ago lol
[18:35] <baja> i have typed already
[18:36] <Austneal> Apparently I upgraded from 12.04 LTS to 12.10 on accident
[18:36] <baja> what do you mean by grep linux image?
[18:36] <Jeffy> Hey guys, does anyone know why I'm getting this error? http://paste.ubuntu.com/11832187/
[18:36] <drmagoo> Gill: np =)
[18:36] <EriC^^> baja: it's a command
[18:36] <zykotick9> Austneal: ahhh, LTS releases can be upgraded LTS->LTS so 12.04 could have jumped to 14.04...
[18:36] <EriC^^> baja: open a terminal and type the whole line
[18:36] <JunkHunk> bekks https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkConnectionBridge
[18:37] <OerHeks> Austneal, so you might still be on 12.04 ... terminal: cat /etc/issue
[18:37] <Jeffy> Really need your help =]
[18:38] <OerHeks> Austneal, get a fresh sources.list form http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ and go to updates menu, set on LTS > LTS

[18:41] <OerHeks> newbie211, no, ntfs is standard loaded

Command startx is starting kde, if to fresh ubuntu I install xorg command startx starting xorg. How to configure startx command to start xorg not kde ?
[18:48] <Austneal> newbie211: What do you need help with?
[18:49] <EriC^^> Gintaras: usually in other non-ubuntu distro
[18:49] <Jodsl> Which data are in EFI system partition?
[18:49] <EriC^^> distro's startx uses ~/.xinitrc
[18:49] <OerHeks> newbie211, if that ntfs is unhealthy , use windows to do a chkdsk, i wouldn; t use linux tools for that
[18:50] <newbie211> a terminal command of ntfs-3g to read my external hdd which refuses to mount in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I was no able to safely eject it from my Windows boot
[18:50] <newbie211> not*

[18:50] <ObrienDave> newbie211, there is NO linux equivalent for windows chkdsk
[18:50] <baja> then??
[18:51] <EriC^^> baja: upload the paste and give us the link please

[18:53] <baja> eric
[18:54] <baja> have you had a look at it?
[18:55] <baja> eric
[18:55] <EriC^^> baja: you don't seem to have a lot of kernels installed
[18:55] <DexterF> ObrienDave: fsck?
[18:55] <alanp> How do I override the libglib2.0-0 version in a dpkg package I'm making using shlibs.local? I have the idea correct but my format seems off because it's not working. I'm trying "libglib-2.0 0 libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.26.0)"
[18:55] <EriC^^> baja: can you pastebin the output of "df -h" ?
[18:55] <jayjo> I just messed something up somehow... I am running gunicorn in a screen session, but now I have no more screen sessions yet it is showing up in 'top
[18:55] <jayjo> how do i kill it?
[18:56] <ObrienDave> DexterF, it does NOT work as well as chkdsk. use at your own risk
[18:56] <DexterF> ObrienDave: ah, ntfs specific.
[18:57] <baja> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11832285/
[18:57] <baja> eric
[18:58] <ObrienDave> DexterF, yes, if you really want to fix a NTFS drive, chkdsk is the best way to go
[19:02] <jayjo> in top I can see that the ubuntu user is running the command, but I don't see how it can be runnign it
[19:02] <jayjo> kind of lost on this one
[19:02] <jayjo> I don't have any detached screens
[19:05] <TJ-> jayjo: check the process's parent PID process
[19:06] <EriC^^> baja: boot looks fine
[19:06] <EriC^^> baja: you have 50% left with roughly 100mb
[19:06] <EriC^^> that's a good 2 kernels to spare
[19:07] <EriC^^> baja: whenever new kernels are installed, you will usually see a msg in apt-get about packages no longer needed, run sudo apt-get autoremove and it should clean it up for you :)
[19:07] <jayjo> TJ-: with 'ps l' I have three commands, -bash, -bash, and ps l;
[19:07] <jayjo> should I kill them all?
[19:08] <jayjo> I do see it with pstree -l but I don't know its origination
[19:08] <merpnderp> I'm been thinking very hard about moving from a MBP to an ubuntu system76 machine. What are some of the downsides I'll face?
[19:10] <hubrumph> merpnderp: "MBP to an ubuntu system76"? what is MBP?
[19:10] <TJ-> jayjo: look at the PPID, that's the parent ID... then see what process that is
[19:10] <TJ-> MacBook Pro I'd think
[19:10] <merpnderp> hubrumph: macbook pro
[19:11] <jayjo> TJ-: so it's  ├─gunicorn(28827)───gunicorn(29400)
[19:11] <hubrumph> merpnderp: You would have to see for yourself as far as the OS, run both really at first, if I understand your question.
[19:11] <TJ-> jayjo: Looks like 28827 has forked a child 29400. what does 28827 have as its PPID?
[19:12] <hobbet1> <---- wishes he had a system76 machine
[19:12] <jayjo> TJ-: init(1)
[19:12] <merpnderp> hubrumph: I run ubuntu on my servers, I just haven't used it as a desktop in years. I'm thinking I can use bittorent sync to replace all my icloud functionality.
[19:13] <TJ-> merpnderp: consider owncloud
[19:15] <tgm4883> TJ-: you could at least give him a brief why, considering he isn't asking about what to use to replace icloud
[19:15] <jayjo> If I can't tell where this process has originated from and there are no screens running, should I jsut kill the processes?
[19:16] <TJ-> jayjo: So that seems to suggest that gunicorn is started as a service by the init daemon
[19:18] <TJ-> jayjo: apt-file search reveals:  package gunicorn has system service /etc/init.d/gunicorn    so to stop it do "sudo service gunicorn stop"
[19:21] <Gintaras> How to view over vnc vga output ? Computer location office, and need to view desktop
[19:21] <merpnderp> TJ-: looks like owncloud is closed source like bt-sync. Why use it over bt-sync then?
[19:23] <TJ-> merpnderp: it's an open source host-your-own cross-device sharing platform, see https://owncloud.org/contribute/
[19:25] <TJ-> merpnderp: I've been evaluating various similar solutions over the past few months and am almost sure I'm going to use owncloud myself
[19:26] <TJ-> merpnderp: my only reservation is it's written in PHP and I'd rather have C++ or Java because I know I'll want to extend it myself :)

[19:40] <JunkHunk> hi I would like to do this:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkConnectionBridge  but with static configuration and virtual adapters any idea?
[19:41] <varunwachaspati> Whenever I use screenshot it crashes in between and the screen fades out, any pointers will be appreciated. Thanks in advance
[19:41] <compdoc> I create bridges to use with KVM but dont know much about virtual adapters outside of virtual machines
[19:44] <CB6> Coming from windows is there any USB thumb drive tools you suggest that works well? Nothing is booting so far and it's pretty frustrating. The boot order is set to USB first so it should work but I don't think it's formatted right or something. Is there an app that's good for it?
[19:46] <CB6> The docs are a little ambiguous for Ubuntu because it doesn't actually specify where to find the installer tool. All you get is the ISO lol.
[19:46] <bprompt> CB6:    what's the original question again?
[19:47] <CB6> I just want to boot linux from USB and it's not seeing it when I start the computer
[19:48] <bprompt> CB6:     what machine make and model are you on?
[19:48] <CB6> Is there a USB tool that formats it in linux format and installs it properly onto the USB stick?
[19:48] <CB6> Using an Asus MB
[19:48] <CB6> would have to look one second lol
[19:48] <auronandace> CB6: you could just dd the ubuntu iso to a usb stick
[19:49] <ioria> CB6, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
[19:49] <CB6> It didn't recognize on my Asus K53E laptop either so it has to be something to do with the USB drives. I've tried two of them so I must be putting it on the USB wrong or something
[19:49] <CB6> tried that interestingly
[19:49] <auronandace> CB6: uefi?
[19:49] <CB6> For the Laptop ya
[19:49] <bprompt> CB6:   so, you downloaded the iso, and burned it to an usb stick... right?
[19:50] <CB6> using pendrive linux yes
[19:50] <bprompt> CB6:     have you booted any usb stick on that machine yet?
[19:50] <CB6> historically just DVD iso's for both
[19:51] <CB6> I don't have any currently and don't want any now so this would be ideal if I can make it work.
[19:51] <bprompt> CB6:     I've found that some machines bios, won't do usb-boot unless you set CSM-Legacy in bios ON
[19:51] <baja> hey people is there a log for previous used commands
[19:52] <CB6> k53e online says it can but I'm not really sure how
[19:52] <BBLLCC> how do I turn off splash?
[19:52] <CB6> I strongly suspect it's just the USB sticks not formatted right or something
[19:52] <bprompt> CB6:    so... .the likelyhood is, the usb is bootable, just your system isn't doing usb-boot for whatever reason
[19:52] <baja> in case i wan to use the commands in the future
[19:52] <CB6> on both machines?
[19:52] <baja> where are the commands recently used
[19:52] <baja> stored
[19:52] <bprompt> CB6:   don't need to format them, just a "raw write" of the iso include bootloader and system files
[19:54] <OerHeks> baja, in ~/.bash_history
[19:56] <bprompt> CB6:      you're doing this in windows, right?
[19:56] <CB6> ya lol
[19:57] <CB6> in 07/08 I used to run Fedora but not on these machines
[19:57] <CB6> If it was CD/DVD I know they would boot. It's the USB that's an issue and who knows why on a modern machine? Some machines don't even have drives anymore
[19:58] <bprompt> CB6:    http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/   <---- use that, to burn the iso to the usb stick, that'd do a raw write of it
[19:58] <CB6> thanks for all the advice so far
[19:59] <auronandace> CB6: i've found you usually have to jump through a few hoops to boot from usb on uefi machines
[19:59] <CB6> Are Asus machines prone to not booting linux on USB? Both my desktop and laptop are Asus. Desktop is custom build but same MB manufacturer anyhow.
[20:00] <OerHeks> If it has EFI bios, see the UEFI manual
[20:00] <CB6> my whole selecting of an Nvidia card was because it's good with Linux drivers typically.
[20:00] <OerHeks> !uefi
[20:00] <bprompt> CB6:     as I said, I found at least once, on a toshiba machine, that because it wasn't set to csm-legacy mode, and instead was set to use uefi, it didn't allow the usb-boot, once I changed it to csm-legacy, is all I did, the usb stick booted, though it was bootable all along
[20:00] <auronandace> CB6: i've had to do bios updates just to get the option to boot usb, but in your case it may be some legacy option or disabling secure boot
[20:01] <OerHeks> and disable fastboot, that can be a cause not booting USB
[20:04] <CB6> trying to make it a live usb stick
[20:04] <CB6> all kinds of interesing
[20:06] <CautionHazardous> UEFI Boot is disabled
[20:07] <bprompt> CB6:    the likelyhood is, the usb stick IS already bootable, you system just isn't doing the usb-boot
[20:08] <CautionHazardous> Is there ever a case of the splash screen showing up for the MB and missing the linux "press any key to load"?
[20:08] <OerHeks> bprompt, most likely ndeed
[20:09] <startingPy> Hi there I got a question regarding python maybe someone here can help me, I want to read a text file and and to filter out certain words

[20:12] <OerHeks> startingPy, that is easy, register your name with Freenode, that is all.
[20:12] <OerHeks> !register
[20:12] <startingPy> OerHeks: you mean the #python channel or is there another one?
[20:12] <OerHeks> they hate spambots
[20:13] <OerHeks> This channel is free without registering, that is the difference.
[20:15] <CautionHazardous> fastboot might be the reason looking into this
[20:16] <mustmodify> Hey guys. I'm having a critical production issue. Hoping you can shed some light. per `df` I am not out of space on / ... but I am unable to write any files to /tmp. Any ideas?
[20:16] <drmagoo> mustmodify: can you please provide us with a pastebin of 'df -h' and mount ?
[20:18] <Austneal> OerHeks: It worked! I'm on 13.04
[20:19] <mustmodify> drmagoo: https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/967d218ee4d1bcf8dc51
[20:19] <OerHeks> Austneal, great, 2 more upgrades to go
[20:19] <Austneal> OerHeks: and now my IRC server is installing :D
[20:21] <drmagoo> mustmodify: do you get any error message, when you try to write to /tmp ?
[20:21] <rtreleaven> mustmodify try this echo test > /tmp/test.txt
[20:21] <Austneal> OerHeks: everything is showing 13.04, but webmin is still showing 12.10.... is that something I should worry about?
[20:22] <mustmodify> rtreleaven: veronica ~: echo "test" > /tmp/test.tmp bash: /tmp/test.tmp: Invalid argument
[20:22] <jhutchins> Austneal: Yes, webmin really should be removed.
[20:22] <OerHeks> ouch, webmin and upgrades.. webmin is not debian compatible.
[20:22] <bekks> !webmin | Austneal
[20:23] <Austneal> Do you know of any alternatives?
[20:23] <jhutchins> Austneal: This is exactly the kind of problem it has, getting out of sync with the system.
[20:23] <Austneal> I don't use it much... but its kinda handy every now and then
[20:23] <bekks> Austneal: You could use zentyal.
[20:23] <jhutchins> Austneal:  FOSS Web Hosting Control Panels include: <DTC>, <GNUPanel>, <ISPConfig> and <ispCP> Omega.  Don't use <Webmin>.  http://wiki.debian.org/HostingControlPanels
[20:24] <rtreleaven> mustmodify do you have a /tmp ?
[20:24] <jhutchins> mustmodify: is /tmp in ram or on disk (use the mount command).
[20:25] <CautionHazardous> For "Boot Option Priorities" would the USB typically show up as an option for a UEFI system?
[20:27] <Seven_Six_Two> mustmodify, did you do the whole command,       echo "test" > /tmp/test.tmp
[20:28] <Austneal> jhutchins: Can't seem to find the package to uninstall it :/
[20:29] <jhutchins> Austneal: EVen worse, installed outside the package system.
[20:29] <Seven_Six_Two> Austneal, it could be in /opt
[20:30] <Austneal> Seven_Six_Two: opt is empty :/
[20:30] <jhutchins> Austneal: You can try /etc/webmin/uninstall.sh - but BACKUP FIRST!

[20:30] <jhutchins> !pl
[20:31] <mustmodify> Seven_Six_Two: yes
[20:31] <mustmodify> I ran that whole command.
[20:32] <Seven_Six_Two> mustmodify, from your reply, it looked like you included    veronica ~:
[20:32] <mustmodify> sorry, that's my prompt
[20:33] <rtreleaven> mustmodify try stat /tmp
[20:33] <Seven_Six_Two> mustmodify, can you pastebin output of root file system?        ls -al | pastebinit
[20:33] <mustmodify> just discovered that there is an "Immutable" flag on /tmp ... not sure why
[20:34] <jhutchins> mustmodify: also the output of sudo mount
[20:34] <Seven_Six_Two> Austneal, webmin is web based, right? It, or a link to it, should be in your document root. Probably /var/www
[20:34] <dawciobiel> How i can encrypt my pendrive (partition or folder - no matter) to be able to decrypt on another host (linux)? Software has to be free of charge.
[20:35] <Austneal> Seven_Six_Two: I dont think so. Its running on a seperate port than Apache
[20:35] <Austneal> Seven_Six_Two: So it must have its own service running
[20:35] <Seven_Six_Two> Austneal, apache can serve on multiple ports
[20:35] <jhutchins> Austneal: did you find /etc/webmin/uninstall.sh?
[20:35] <Austneal> jhutchins: Yeah, its there
[20:35] <jhutchins> Austneal: I believe it still uses apache to serve the interface, but uses an alternate port (always has).
[20:36] <bekks> Austneal: dpkg -l | grep webmin
[20:36] <jhutchins> Austneal: That's supposed to clean it up properly, stop the service, etc.
[20:36] <Seven_Six_Two> Like a control port? maybe, but the apache link might still show a fs location, like /usr/share/webmin
[20:37] <jhutchins> bekks: Given that webmin hasn't been supported in ubuntu for a while, it would not be unexpected that it was not installed through apt.
[20:37] <Austneal> Seven_Six_Two: I'm pretty sure I can stop Apache and still access webmin... I might be wrong though
[20:37] <bekks> jhutchins: Good point.
[20:37] <jhutchins> Austneal: You could try and see.
[20:37] <Austneal> I'll try the uninstall.sh... but I need to back up first
[20:37] <Seven_Six_Two> Austneal, maybe, but the point I'm making is that it can show you a filesystem location for webmin, if the installer doesn't work
[20:37] <jhutchins> Austneal: Did you install it for your own use, or for clients to use?
[20:37] <mustmodify> jhutchins: https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/442f344eb04fd267339c
[20:37] <mustmodify> Seven_Six_Two: https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/442f344eb04fd267339c
[20:38] <Austneal> jhutchins: for my own use
[20:38] <mustmodify> even as root, can't unset immutable flag with chattr -i
[20:39] <jhutchins> mustmodify: The sticky bit is set so that anybody can write to /tmp, but only the person who owns a file can remove it.
[20:39] <jhutchins> mustmodify: That's standard on GNU Linux.
[20:39] <histo> mustmodify: that's normal
[20:40] <jhutchins> mustmodify: That's not immutable.
[20:40] <Seven_Six_Two> mustmodify, please try                               cd /tmp && touch ./tempfile.txt && echo "test" > tempfile.txt                   and return result
[20:41] <jhutchins> mustmodify: (Unsurprisingly, immutable is an "i" in lsattr)

[20:57] <mustmodify> So basically I can't write to /tmp at all, and no amount of setting permissions or whatever will help.
[20:58] <bekks> mustmodify: So what are the permissions of /tmp ?
[20:59] <mustmodify> 1777

[21:05] <mustmodify> lucid 10.04
[21:05] <bekks> !10.04
[21:06] <bekks> mustmodify: Please update to a supported release first.
[21:06] <mustmodify> bekks: Right, and I'm actually migrating as we speak.
[21:06] <mustmodify> Well, I mean, the new server is being tested.
[21:07] <mustmodify> I guess our site will just be down until I'm done.
[21:27] <rrva> my DNS server (unbound) has trouble looking up archive.ubuntu.com. Is there some dns cache poisoning going on?
[21:27] <rrva> Logs at: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11832922/
[21:32] <karthik> heyy guys,,
[21:32] <karthik> I have issue with login loop
[21:32] <karthik> can someone help me here?
[21:33] <EriC^^> karthik: press ctrl+alt+f1 then type ls -l ~/.Xauthority after logging in
[21:33] <karthik> Hi eric
[21:33] <EriC^^> hi
[21:33] <karthik> I tried. it asked me for login usernmae and password.. I was able to enter only user name
[21:33] <karthik> I couldnt enter password
[21:34] <EriC^^> in ctrl+alt+f1?
[21:34] <karthik> Yes
[21:34] <karthik> I was asked for login credentials when I entered ctrl+alt+f1
[21:35] <karthik> I am a newbie.. windows refuggee :)
[21:35] <EriC^^> you dont get a password prompt after putting the username?
[21:35] <drmagoo>  rrva it looks wrong. dynect.net mean somethign to you ?
[21:36] <rrva> i've forced my server to forward queries to 8.8.8.8 for this zone for now
[21:36] <rrva> question is how I can make it fall back to that when poisoning is detected
[21:36] <rrva> it detects the poisoning attempt
[21:37] <karthik> @eric. There is a password promt but I couldnt type anything. I could only press enter
[21:39] <EriC^^> karthik: it's normal, the password doesn't show
[21:39] <EriC^^> karthik: type the password then press enter
[21:39] <karthik> oh that explains.. i could login now
[21:39] <karthik> thanks..
[21:40] <karthik> so, I just enter this ls -l ~/.Xauthority?
[21:40] <EriC^^> yeah
[21:40] <EriC^^> is root the owner or your username?
[21:41] <drmagoo> rrva: you might want to have a look at unbound (unbound.net) Other then that, I dont really sure what programs there are for keeping tabs on the dns
[21:41] <karthik> No, I entered username and password while installing the package.
[21:41] <EriC^^> karthik: no, i mean after typing ls -l check if your username is the owner
[21:42] <EriC^^> you should see your username listed
[21:43] <histo> karthik: you should get output like -rwxr-xr-x someuser somegroup bytes date somefile
[21:43] <histo> karthik: from running ls -l ~/.Xauthority
[21:43] <karthik> oh yes, I could see my username
[21:44] <karthik> I could see /home/karthik/:'
[21:44] <EriC^^> is there a root root in it?
[21:45] <karthik> Nope, all i can see is desktop, documents, downloads..
[21:45] <karthik> There is no root
[21:45] <EriC^^> no i mean in ls -l ~/.Xauthority
[21:47] <EriC^^> karthik: type stat -c %u ~/.Xauthority
[21:47] <EriC^^> and paste what it says
[21:48] <karthik> I dont get output like "output like -rwxr-xr-x someuser somegroup bytes date somefile.."
[21:48] <karthik> Maybe i doing something wrong with cmd line.
[21:48] <karthik> let me check again
[21:48] <karthik> i'll do this output like -rwxr-xr-x someuser somegroup bytes date somefile
[21:48] <EriC^^> karthik: are you putting a space after ~/ maybe ?
[21:49] <EriC^^> ok, it is ls -l ( L not 1 btw )
[21:52] <karthik> stat -c %u ~/.Xauthority .. I get output as 1000
[21:53] <EriC^^> ok, i guess it's correct then
[21:53] <EriC^^> karthik: type id, does it say 1000 ?
[21:53] <karthik> I checked couple of forums, is it my graphics card that stops me from login?
[21:53] <histo> karthik: what were you doing before the login loop started?
[21:54] <karthik> ok
[21:54] <karthik> I just installed the ubuntu on a fresh win7 laptop.
[21:54] <karthik> on a partition
[21:54] <EriC^^> karthik: try the guest account, if it works then it's not a user problem
[21:54] <histo> So it's never worked/
[21:54] <EriC^^> oh
[21:55] <EriC^^> it's probably a graphics issue then
[21:55] <histo> karthik: This is a fresh install?  Has it ever worked?
[21:55] <karthik> uid and gid is 1000
[21:55] <karthik> yes, this is the fresh install. I used the same package to install in different computer and that worked fine.
[21:56] <histo> karthik: what type of video card does this machine have?
[21:56] <EriC^^> karthik: type sudo ubuntu-drivers devices | nc termbin.com 9999
[21:56] <EriC^^> and paste the link here
[22:10] <gbear14275> I'm trying to expand an online partition and I've realized that my partition scheme has an extended and logical partition next to the partition I want to expand.  I tried to use parted to remove it but it gave me a warning that it was in use.  I'm not aware of it being in use by anything but wanted to double check... is there a way to do this?
[22:12] <bekks> gbear14275: Yeah, boot a livecd, and do it.
[22:12] <OerHeks> gbear14275, you can edit partitions that are not in use, so use a live cd to expand
[22:12] <gbear14275> I looked at mount and fdisk -l but I'm looking for something that explains the relationship to the /dev/sdX# type association
[22:13] <gbear14275> bekks and OerHeks , it's a remote server.  I've read that resize2fs can expand an online partition into free space so I'm trying to create some free space
[22:13] <gbear14275> is that bad info?
[22:13] <bekks> gbear14275: Erm, is that an Ubuntu server?
[22:13] <bekks> gbear14275: reiserfs is dead for ages :)
[22:14] <gbear14275> bekks, resize2fs not reiser
[22:14] <bekks> gbear14275: classical misread :D
[22:14] <gbear14275> http://askubuntu.com/questions/24027/how-can-i-resize-an-ext-root-partition-at-runtime
[22:15] <OerHeks>  resize2fs needs an unmounted hdd too
[22:15] <bekks> Hmm, no. You can resize ext4 online.
[22:16] <Toffe> ciritcal: Getting DDOS from 1 ip can i block it in ubuntu?
[22:17] <njmbb8> hey guys, quick question, i just popped in an ubuntu usb and did the check disk for defects option. now the screen is flashing white
[22:17] <njmbb8> there's nothing going on other than the flashing
[22:18] <OerHeks> njmbb8, yes, with iptables > iptables -A INPUT -s <ddos-ip> -j DROP
[22:18] <njmbb8> i think you mean, Toffe
[22:19] <Toffe> OerHeks thanks i tried that i still get that request in nginx access log
[22:19] <ubuntu616> njmbb8: Never heard of that happening, I would try it on another computer, check the sum, reload it...etc.
[22:19] <njmbb8> what is supposed to happen?
[22:20] <njmbb8> any harm in holding the button to shut it down?
[22:20] <teward> Toffe: you have to check the existing iptables rules too
[22:20] <Toffe> i'm into deep here
[22:20] <teward> Toffe: the DROP rule has to be before the ACCEPT rule for port 80 and such
[22:20] <histo> njmbb8: what happens if you press a key on the keyboard?
[22:20] <Toffe> damnit getting abuse mails from the host :P
[22:21] <OerHeks> Toffe, with nginx you need to deny ip in its config IIRC
[22:21] <Toffe> but cant i deny on eth0
[22:21] <njmbb8> histo, there's a cursor on the bottom and the text of whatever key i press shows up there. but it gets reset when the flash happens
[22:21] <ubuntu616> njmbb8: Holding the button should not be an issue.
[22:21] <gbear14275> I'm trying to figure out what is using my sdb5 partition.  Any commands that will shed light on what is using it?
[22:22] <histo> gbear14275: iotop
[22:22] <histo> gbear14275: unless you mean what is there?
[22:23] <Toffe> damn http://link.jepb.no/bs3p
[22:23] <Toffe> he's upping his game
[22:24] <Guest67052> why is ubuntu 64bit smaller than 32bit. I though it would be the other way around.
[22:24] <gbear14275> histo, I partitioned this a long time ago and I guess I made two partitions.  The first is my boot partition and the second I didn't think I was using for anything however parted says it's in use.  Trying to figure out what if anything is using it as a double check before I delete it
[22:24] <Toffe> anyone here wanna help me on PM to stop an ip
[22:26] <gbear14275> alternatively... anyone able to tell me what's happening with this disk error?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/11833146/
[22:27] <njmbb8> ok i rebooted and tried again, it's working now
[22:27] <njmbb8> weird
[22:27] <histo> gbear14275: lsblk
[22:27] <histo> gbear14275: mostlikely an extended partition for swap
[22:28] <histo> gbear14275: badblock on sdb
[22:28] <histo> is your error
[22:28] <gbear14275> histo, perfect!  Thanks and glad I checked it's actually my /home (oops)...
[22:29] <gbear14275> histo, I thought bad blocks are automatically taken care of... it's recurring message in my syslog and I'm not sure how to get rid of it.  I think it might have to do with the trim command not working anymore... but I'm not sure
[22:29] <gbear14275> was thinking it might be space related as the disk is almost 90% full... but would that affect trim?
[22:29] <bekks> gbear14275: when there are no spare free blocks left for replacement, you get errors like yours.
[22:31] <psusi> bekks, no.. the error is with a discard command
[22:31] <psusi> gbear14275, check the SMART heath of the drive in the disks utility just to make sure it's ok, but otherwise it seems that it is refusing to handle a TRIM command for some reason... possibly a firmware bug
[22:32] <bekks> psusi: due to an io error on a specific block, line 21.
[22:32] <psusi> bekks, yes.. an IO error in the TRIM request... not a WRITE request
[22:33] <gbear14275> psusi, I'm thinking that perhaps as well.  I'm not getting any flags with smartctl but I'm likely reading it wrong...  http://paste.ubuntu.com/11833171/
[22:34] <mustmodify> can someone walk me through using fdisk to rebuild a partition?
[22:35] <psusi> gbear14275, looks ok, but I don't trust OCZ drives.. I had one and had to stop using it when it randomly started remapping logical sectors to the contents of different files... SMART still said it was fine too
[22:35] <bekks> mustmodify: Whats the actual problem?
[22:35] <Toffe> Anyone here who can help me block an IP which is mass requestion on my server? I tried UFW to block ip and IPTables but i dont know anything about any of theese.. :(
[22:35] <mustmodify> bekks: https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/e40a60619b63a2edd351
[22:36] <mustmodify> "Disk /dev/sdb1 doesn't contain a valid partition table"
[22:36] <mustmodify> same for all disks.
[22:36] <mustmodify> But really I only care about /dev/sda1
[22:36] <psusi> mustmodify, that is because /dev/sdb1 *is* a partition... so it does not *contain* partitions
[22:36] <bekks> mustmodify: sdb1 is a partition, and does not contain a partition table. sdb does.
[22:36] <mustmodify> bekks: Oh...
[22:37] <mustmodify> ok well then... assume there is a problem somewhere in that output. What is it?
[22:37] <mustmodify> :)
[22:37] <gbear14275> psusi, I appreciate the double check... been pretty frustrating and confusing.  I really don't want to have to re-install onto a new disk...  are there any ways to avoid a reinstall when replacing a boot disk?
[22:37] <csmule> Toffe: try http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-do-i-block-an-ip-on-my-linux-server/
[22:37] <bekks> mustmodify: thats not the full output isnt it?
[22:37] <Toffe> csmule did all of thoose steps does not work
[22:38] <mustmodify> bekks: yes, that's the full output
[22:38] <Toffe> it still gets trough into access all requests
[22:38] <csmule> Toffe: what os?
[22:38] <Toffe> ubuntu
[22:38] <mustmodify> I am in some kind of rescue mode if that means anything.
[22:38] <bekks> mustmodify: Whats the _actual_ problem - why are you in a rescue mode?
[22:38] <Toffe>    rx:   159.94 Mbit/s 276350 p/s          tx:      336 kbit/s    41 p/s^C
[22:39] <Toffe> i shut down port 80 and tx went down from 70mbit to what you see
[22:39] <gbear14275> psusi, nvm, i'll google that.  Thanks again for the double check
[22:39] <csmule> Toffe: You do a sanity check and block your own client IP just to see if it is working?
[22:39] <mustmodify> bekks: I was unable to write to /tmp. On restart, the filesystem was in readonly mode.
[22:39] <Toffe> kinda .. cant do that :P
[22:40] <Toffe> i cant access the server then
[22:40] <gbear14275> how do you report a pm spammer here?  Just got sent a link to a random webcam in a pm
[22:40] <csmule> Toffe: You have no other client, a VM or something?  You can then just do "telnet host 80" to see if the port is open.
[22:40] <Toffe> @bioogir is a pm spammer :P
[22:40] <Toffe> no :S
[22:40] <Toffe> I'm offshore

[22:51] <tds5016> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11833233/
[22:52] <tds5016> that's the error I get from the log.
[22:52] <tds5016> should I post my apparmor config?
[22:53] <tds5016> or would this question be better suited for #mysql?
[22:54] <bekks> tds5016: So whats your apparmor config?
[22:55] <tds5016> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11833246/
[22:56] <tds5016> that is my usr.sbmin.mysql
[22:56] <tds5016> usr.sbin.mysql*
[22:59] <bekks> tds5016: Does it work when disabling apparmor?
[22:59] <tds5016> how would you disable app armor?
[23:00] <OerHeks> sudo nano /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld
[23:01] <bekks> OerHeks: < tds5016> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11833246/
[23:02] <OerHeks> 2009, still valid http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-change-the-mysql-data-default-directory.html
[23:03] <tds5016> OerHeks: that's basically what I did.
[23:05] <OerHeks> tds5016,  i see line 38/39, then reload sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor reload
[23:06] <tds5016> OerHeks: I did that.
[23:06] <OerHeks> and then mysql.

[23:12] <psusi> gbear14275, if you install with LVM you can pick up the system and move it to a new disk in the background
[23:12] <psusi> gbear14275, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lvm
[23:14] <gbear14275> psusi, I wish I did, but I didn't...
[23:14] <ivan_on_trac> It is possible that the command "useradd -m -d /home/xxx xxx". You must create a ".bash_profile"?
[23:17] <tds5016> 150706 23:16:31 [ERROR] Can't start server : Bind on unix socket: Permission denied 150706 23:16:31 [ERROR] Do you already have another mysqld server running on socket: /mnt/sql-volume/mysqld.sock ?
[23:17] <tds5016> now I'm getting that error....
[23:22] <lickalott> hey all!  if my nvidia card (960M) is set in bios as default and the video seems to working perfectly but in system settings it shows the intel embedded graphics do you think I need to persue an nvidia driver install?
[23:25] <nicomachus> not if this is specifically an ubuntu question... but maybe you guys can advise: I re-partitioned to move some space from my windows to my linux partition, and now GRUB is showing 2 Windows partitions. but gparted shows the correct allocation.
[23:26] <psusi> gbear14275, then moving involves formatting the new disk, copying all files over, and reinstalling the boot loader on the new disk
[23:28] <nicomachus> uh oh.. new kernel release. let's hope it doesn't screw everything up all over again.
[23:29] <gbear14275> psusi, Apologie for all the questions but I once heard that there was a better utility for copying than dd as it has no error correction.. do you have any recomendations for a disk copy utility or command?
[23:29] <Johnny_Linux> igs omfgtora
[23:30] <omfgtora> igs?
[23:34] <psusi> gbear14275, copying the files with eg. cp, is way better than dd
[23:34] <omfgtora> that is way too fun to read
[23:35] <psusi> gbear14275, it just means you have to manually tweak the UUID in /etc/fstab, and reinstall grub on the new disk is all since grub isn't copied
[23:35] <omfgtora> "eegee seepee is way better than deedee"
[23:35] <psusi> but you don't end up wasting a lot of time copying free space... and the destination disk doesn't have to be at least as large as the old one, as long as it has room for the files
[23:36] <nicomachus> psusi: what are you trying to copy? rsync works great for directories/files, but not really images.
[23:37] <psusi> another good alternative is to make a backup with tar or dump ( and get in the habit of making regular backups to an offline disk for when the fecal mater hits the rotary air impleller ) and restore it to the new drive
[23:37] <nicomachus> sorry, I meant gbear14275, not psusi
[23:37] <psusi> nicomachus, gbear14275 wants to copy his whole system to another disk... rsync works for that to, but cp is simpler and the benefit of rsync isn't used in a one time copy
[23:37] <lino_> !List
[23:38] <nicomachus> agreed on that, psusi. cp or dd would be my rec.
[23:38] <nicomachus> for that at least.
[23:39] <excelsio`> hi
[23:40] <hajj> hi
[23:40] <excelsio`> I'm getting no space errors when I try to update my kernel
[23:40] <nicomachus> excelsio`: going to need to clear out some old kernels from /boot, most like
[23:41] <nicomachus> excelsio`: see: https://askubuntu.com/questions/89710/how-do-i-free-up-more-space-in-boot
[23:41] <excelsio`> thanks
[23:42] <nicomachus> excelsio`: just make sure you don't delete ALL the kernels!
[23:42] <nicomachus> otherwise you'll be back here telling us you can't boot. :)
[23:42] <excelsio`> thanks
[23:42] <excelsio`> :P
[23:42] <nicomachus> (I did that... too recently)
[23:45] <Bashing-om> excelsio`: Great turorial, try post #10 " sudo apt-get autoremove " IF you are on 14.04+ . If you have the operating headroom in /boot, that is the simple thing to do .
[23:46] <vas> Hello Everyone!
[23:46] <vas> Does anybody have any recomendations on how to configure my macbook pro running Ubuntu 14 for multi-touch gestures and specifically avoiding issues where the touch-pad randomly selects (and drags) so it text and also randomly activates the window-switcher. It seems like this is an issue affecting Macbook Pro Ubuntu users
[23:48] <vas> I currently have 2-finger scrolling enabled and working fine, but it randomly keeps clicking-dragging and selecting text or activating the task-switcher window... it seems like a common issue
[23:49] <ubuntu616> vas: Never seen those issues here. Do you havean ubuntu install?
[23:50] <nicomachus> Bashing-om: what's the config set to on that? Last I checked, it would only delete if there were 8 kernels or more.
[23:50] <vas> ubuntu616, yes
[23:50] <vas> http://askubuntu.com/questions/322161/two-finger-scroll-issues-erratic-selecting-and-app-switching-macbook-pro-8-1
[23:51] <nicomachus> Bashing-om, I may be mistaken. disregard my last. Interesting read on autoremove here though: https://askubuntu.com/questions/563483/why-doesnt-apt-get-autoremove-remove-my-old-kernels
[23:51] <greyback_> vas: fiddling with synclient might improve things. But the 3 finger alt-tab thing is the bane of my existence
[23:52] <vas> ubuntu616, (link above is an issue posted to the AskUbuntu)
[23:53] <vas> greyback_, Its so weird, I usually do a 2 finger scroll and that works fine.. but randomly it starts selecting text (like a click and drag to select text that you would nroamlly be trying to copy or something) but I am obviously just trying to scroll up and down a page
[23:53] <vas> It just randomly clicks, and sometimes it even opens up the (alt-tab) task-switcher window!
[23:54] <Bashing-om> nicomachus: apt is configurable. Will have a read for what you found. Be back soonest .
[23:54] <vas> All thsi happens just when I do a 2 finger scroll... Its really weird.. Any ideas.. Or has any other MacBook users configured their touch-pad for 3 finger scrolling
[23:55] <greyback_> vas: 3 finger tap does the alt-tab anyway, built into unity, dunno how to fix it. The click + drag thing you can fix with: "synclient TapAndDragGesture=0"
[23:55] <reactormonk> any way to get a distrowatch view for more arbitrary packages, e.g. R?
[23:56] <greyback_> vas: here's my config, but it's far from perfect: synclient PalmDetect=1  GrabEventDevice=0 TapAndDragGesture=0 EmulateTwoFingerMinZ=1000 SingleTapTimeout=40
[23:56] <vas> greyback_, YES! Awesome! I am going to try that now... I never noticed that the 3 fingers activates the alt-tab switcher
[23:56] <nicomachus> gotta reboot.
[23:57] <greyback_> vas: synclient has loads of options, you may find different values suit your trackpad compared to mine. But have a play
[23:59] <frebark> could someone please link me a guide to installing ubuntu 15.04 with lvm/luks for the root partition; i have been working on this for days and can't get it to work no matter how i shake it
