| nicomachus | frebark: if you're installing from a live disk, it's just a checkbox... | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| frebark | the best thing I have found is a mix between this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system#LUKS_on_LVM and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemsViaUbiquity I follow them the best I can and have tried several things, but when i reboot following those two, it just gives me a purple screen after grub forever, and i've tried redoing grub every which way | 00:02 |
| nicomachus | do you already have ubuntu installed? | 00:02 |
| frebark | nicomachus: yes, but I will be installing on a dual-boot with win8.1 and have a /boot and efi on a different disk (usb flash actually) | 00:02 |
| nicomachus | ok... I'll step out and let someone else help with that. | 00:03 |
| frebark | nicomachus: well i have an installation that i've been mucking with that i'm ready to just throw away, because i've shaked it every way but can't get it working | 00:03 |
| annoymouse | Hey guys | 00:04 |
| frebark | nicomachus: yeah, i want my boot on a usb flash and will (after i get the encryption of root figured out) be wanting my /tmp and /var on a hdd instead of the ssd | 00:04 |
| excelsio` | hi!! | 00:04 |
| nicomachus | frebark: you'll need better expertise than I'm able to provide. good luck. | 00:05 |
| annoymouse | Hey guys | 00:05 |
| frebark | nicomachus: yeah, i need all the luck i can get | 00:05 |
| frebark | hey annoymouse | 00:05 |
| annoymouse | I'm trying to send an email with the output from my crontab | 00:05 |
| excelsio` | How is apt-get remove different from purge? | 00:06 |
| annoymouse | It seems that my ISP (yahoo) doesnt allow mail to port 25 though | 00:06 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | excelsio`, it doesn't remove configuration and other data | 00:06 |
| annoymouse | Do i need a relay? | 00:06 |
| frebark | nicomachus: i'm about tempted to do the lvm check box and kill windows off and then resize root and install windows back onto it; but don't know how far i'd get going that way | 00:06 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, you need to contact your ISP to disable that restriction | 00:06 |
| excelsio` | I have no space on my boot, still trying to use that answer you linked too | 00:07 |
| annoymouse | Eduard_Munteanu: i dont think Yahoo would care tbh | 00:07 |
| Bashing-om | nicomachus: As you know ubuntu is ever evolving and is a fast moving target. In respect to "autoreove" see: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/vivid/apt/vivid/revision/193/debian/apt.conf.autoremove#debian/apt.conf.autoremove . | 00:07 |
| nicomachus | frebark: why would you need to kill windows off? Just install it as a dual-boot and hit the checkbox to encrypt the home folder. Do you absolutely need full-disk encryption? | 00:07 |
| frebark | nicomachus: yes | 00:08 |
| annoymouse | Eduard_Munteanu: i read something about a relay server though | 00:08 |
| njmbb8 | my install got stuck at detecting hardware and then the dialogue disappeared :O | 00:08 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, do they fail to care if your connection goes down for some reason, as well? | 00:08 |
| nicomachus | Bashing-om: thanks, that clears it up a bit. | 00:08 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, you may have some luck doing SMTP over SSL on another port | 00:09 |
| excelsio` | should I try to purge the one it tries to boot with but doesn't work? | 00:09 |
| nicomachus | excelsio`: what do you mean "tries to boot but doesn't work"? | 00:10 |
| njmbb8 | is there a way to make the install more verbose? | 00:10 |
| excelsio` | -55 | 00:10 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, how would you contact the relay? If it's still over SMTP then no luck. | 00:10 |
| annoymouse | Eduard_Munteanu: How do i set up mail to use a different port though? | 00:10 |
| excelsio` | I booted with -54 | 00:10 |
| excelsio` | impulsively I did it | 00:10 |
| nicomachus | excelsio`: as long as you keep -54... I don't see a harm in removing -55 | 00:10 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, you can't unless the server you're using already provides it | 00:10 |
| nicomachus | didn't -57 just come out though? | 00:10 |
| excelsio` | I did sudo apt-get purge linux-headers-3.13.0-55 | 00:10 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, or you control the server | 00:10 |
| Bashing-om | excelsio`: What was the result of terminal command " sudo apt-get autoremove " IF you are on 14.04 and above ? | 00:10 |
| excelsio` | yeah, 14.04 | 00:10 |
| excelsio` | yeah, 57 was mentioned when I did hte purge | 00:11 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | excelsio`, purge shouldn't make a difference for headers | 00:11 |
| annoymouse | Eduard_Munteanu: the server is local on my computer as far as I know | 00:11 |
| annoymouse | I just beed | 00:11 |
| excelsio` | seems like it's downloading 57 now | 00:11 |
| excelsio` | why? | 00:11 |
| annoymouse | *need to send to an external mail service that doesnt accepy mail on 25 | 00:11 |
| frebark | nicomachus: what's strange is that i'm running this for testing in a virtualbox and have a virtual drive set aside for an efi and /boot partition, another for root, and i go through this process in the manual partitioning area of the installer and/or with the guides i linked you, only specifying that i want that /boot on the one drive and root to be lvm and encrypted 100% of the space on the second virtual drive, and this stuff stil | 00:12 |
| hovdingHangpung | Hey guys.. I'm trying to move my dotfiles from a widows machine to my ubuntu-server by sftp. Hovewer I get an error everytime filezilla tries to make a new dir on the server | 00:12 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, I mean the external mail server | 00:12 |
| njmbb8 | at what point do i tell myself that the install is frozen and try to start over? | 00:12 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | njmbb8, when all hope is lost and despair sets in | 00:13 |
| nicomachus | lol | 00:13 |
| njmbb8 | lol | 00:13 |
| CB6 | cheap USB drives don't get recognized. That was the issue | 00:13 |
| njmbb8 | my install got stuck at detecting hardware and then the dialogue disappeared | 00:13 |
| annoymouse | Eduard_Munteanu: i know the port they accept mail on, so why cant i configure mail to send it to that port? | 00:13 |
| njmbb8 | does that count? | 00:13 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, oh, if there's another port they accept mail on, then you can definitely do that | 00:13 |
| nicomachus | njmbb8: is this a fresh machine or is there already an OS on it? | 00:13 |
| njmbb8 | there's already an os | 00:14 |
| annoymouse | Eduard_Munteanu: so what should i do? | 00:14 |
| njmbb8 | specifically debian | 00:14 |
| nicomachus | njmbb8: eek. if it was clean, I'd say screw it, starting over won't hurt anything. but if it did hang on something, you risk corrupting the debian partition (depending on where you were in the install) | 00:15 |
| excelsio` | think I'm still out of space | 00:15 |
| njmbb8 | nicomachus, i'm intending to write over it | 00:15 |
| excelsio` | my boot partition isn't getting cleaned up | 00:15 |
| nicomachus | oh. well then, just start over. no risk. | 00:16 |
| njmbb8 | k | 00:16 |
| njmbb8 | :D | 00:16 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, well, what MTA do you use? | 00:16 |
| njmbb8 | any way to get a more verbose output than the graphical install gives by default? | 00:17 |
| user | billy | 00:17 |
| user | hello | 00:17 |
| nicomachus | excelsio`: what's the output of 'ls /boot'? | 00:17 |
| user | everyone | 00:17 |
| vas | i | 00:17 |
| annoymouse | Eduard_Munteanu: MTA? | 00:18 |

| Felishia | help :/ | 00:25 |
| frebark | never seen that one | 00:25 |
| jes_ | good evening evry1 | 00:25 |
| excelsio` | seems different this time | 00:25 |
| annoymouse | Eduard_Munteanu: SSL. I forget the exact one, but i can find it | 00:25 |
| Felishia | I need to convert an odt document format to pdf | 00:25 |

| jes_ | trying to use Tor on ubuntu, couldn't configure-install it.. can some1 teach me how to do?? | 00:26 |
| excelsio` | not seeing errors | 00:26 |
| excelsio` | yes | 00:26 |
| OerHeks | !tor | 00:26 |
| ubottu | Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl | 00:26 |
| excelsio` | still processing | 00:26 |
| nicomachus | excelsio`: are you seeing lots of kernels still? or just -54 and -57? | 00:26 |
| excelsio` | almost there | 00:26 |
| frebark | jes_: you might want to look into Whonix or Tails as well | 00:26 |
| excelsio` | looks close to right | 00:27 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | annoymouse, then look at http://serverfault.com/questions/120123/forcing-smtp-outgoing-mail-encryption-on-postfix | 00:27 |
| jes_ | <frebark> I already use tails on my laptop,, but today can't tweet, don't know why :(( | 00:27 |
| annoymouse | Eduard_Munteanu: 995 | 00:27 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | jes_, it might be better to use Tails for Tor | 00:27 |
| excelsio` | whoa! finished with no errors!!! | 00:28 |
| excelsio` | nice!! | 00:28 |
| excelsio` | thanks! | 00:28 |
| nicomachus | yay :) | 00:28 |
| jes_ | <Eduard_Munteanu> thnx a lot.. already have on my laptop but can't use tweetter :( | 00:28 |
| mekhami | anyone know how i can lock my mouse to a full screen game with a dual monitor set up? i'm playing borderlands 2 on steam for linux, but it doesn't lock to the window so i'm constantly scrolling off the screen | 00:28 |
| frebark | Can anybody help out with setting up ubuntu and encrypting a root partition (not full disk) with a /boot on another drive? | 00:29 |
| nicomachus | mekhami: might have some luck in #gamingonlinux | 00:29 |
| excelsio` | I'm only using 56% of my boot partition!!! | 00:29 |
| excelsio` | thanks! | 00:29 |
| jes_ | <frebark> Whonix? is this another dist??? | 00:30 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, are you having trouble with anything in particular? | 00:30 |
| frebark | jes_: yeah, it's got a tor gateway and then a tor client instance | 00:30 |
| jes_ | <frebark> ah.. thnx a lot.. will look now.. | 00:31 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: my ultimate goal is to setup ubuntu and win8.1 on dual boot, with ubuntu's root on the same ssd as win8.1 encrypted with lvm/luks. In addition to that i need the efi and /boot to be on an external usb flash drive. then when all that's settled, i plan on putting /var and /tmp on a hdd instead of the ssd and encrypting them with luks/lvm | 00:32 |
| jes_ | <frebark> have latest days (actually one wee) problem with tor on windows and tails.. don't know why.. and on ubuntu can't configure it :( feel me a lttlbt stupid :((( | 00:32 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, alright | 00:33 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: i've been trying to follow a mix of this https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system#LUKS_on_LVM and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemsViaUbiquity and i have shook it about every which way, but keep coming up with a system that boots to grub then a purple screen that just sits there indefinitely | 00:33 |
| gagalicious | rsync -e "ssh -p 222" -avzP --delete /mnt/ext3/* /mnt/ext4/ ... doesnt copy symlink as symlinks but copied them... how can i get it copied as symlink? | 00:33 |
| cracker_ | hi | 00:33 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: i'm trying it out in a virtualbox first, with just a virtual hard drive for efi /boot partitions and another for root | 00:33 |
| MonkeyDust | jes_ type fre and then hit tab, it autocompletes the name | 00:33 |
| njmbb8 | i'm getting a weird error saying that the mirror doesn't support the release that i'm using | 00:34 |
| njmbb8 | what do i do? | 00:34 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, are you using the Debian installer or setting up the disks manually? | 00:34 |
| frebark | njmbb8: see if there's an updated mirror for the software in question | 00:34 |
| jes_ | <MonkeyDust> on ubuntu terminal??? | 00:34 |
| MonkeyDust | jes_ here in the channel | 00:35 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: well i'm doing it manually, booting to the try ubuntu mode, doing that voodoo in the guides there and then launching the manual partitioner and installing to the lvm volume | 00:35 |
| boojum | suck on login screen ubuntu 15.04 after an update | 00:35 |
| njmbb8 | frebark, where can i find one? this is for the ubuntu archive | 00:35 |

| frebark | *ubuntu | 00:36 |
| njmbb8 | i'm installing from an iso | 00:36 |
| frebark | njmbb8: where did you get the iso, did you md5sum it to verify the integrity, and is it affecting your install process? | 00:37 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, so it gets stuck at the Linux boot splash, do any messages show up in the console? | 00:37 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: nothing, just purple screen stuck forever | 00:37 |

| njmbb8 | frebark, i got the iso from ubuntu, the md5 matches, and it's a step in the install process so i'm assuming it shouldn't be skipped | 00:40 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: i removed the quiet and splash from the boot line and it still is just a purple screen | 00:40 |
| Pazooza | Why can't I change file permissions on my own files? | 00:40 |
| Pazooza | Ubuntu 14.4 | 00:41 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, do you know how to access the serial port on your VM? | 00:41 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: no | 00:42 |
| nicomachus | Pazooza: can you be more specific? | 00:42 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: i removed something else some $vt_handoff off the end of it too and now it seems to be stuck at loading initial ramdisk | 00:42 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, what does it say? | 00:42 |
| Pazooza | When I try to add group and other read/write it flops back to none. | 00:43 |
| Pazooza | Even as root. | 00:43 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: just says loading linux 3.19... loading initial ramdisk ... | 00:43 |
| jes_ | good night every1 .. tomorrow must do my homeworks :((( | 00:43 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, have you unmounted partitions properly after installing and before rebooting? | 00:44 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: i used aes-xts-plain64 with a 512 keysize for the encryption; i tried it both ways setting those options in crypttab or leaving them out and it has the same result | 00:44 |
| === Yukkii is now known as Dhs92 | ||
| frebark | frebark: yeah, well... i did a chroot thing like in the ubuntu tutorial there, and then did the umount command at the bottom. | 00:45 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: ^ | 00:45 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, hm, wait, is the kernel/initramfs on the encrypted partition or on the EFI boot partition? | 00:46 |
| cracker_ | hey | 00:46 |
| cracker_ | are you dendroid? | 00:46 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: it's on the boot partition i think | 00:46 |
| cracker_ | do you kno derndroid? | 00:46 |
| cracker_ | know | 00:46 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: yeah, and that's unencrypted | 00:46 |
| nicomachus | cracker_: no derndroid here | 00:47 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, well, it doesn't get to the point it actually touches the encrypted stuff, it seems. | 00:47 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: and i did the update-initramfs with both configs of the crypttab and neither one of them worked | 00:47 |
| Pazooza | ANother mystery. WHen I copy a file to a thumb drive then stick the thumb drive in a windows machine the file disappears. | 00:47 |
| Pazooza | Even in another linux vm, the file disappears. Put it back into Ubuntu and the file is gone. | 00:50 |
| Pazooza | I can to it over and over. | 00:50 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, "Starting with Natty (Ubuntu 11.04), also remove the parameter vt.handoff=7, and on the line that reads set gfxpayload=$linux_gfx_mode, replace with set gfxpayload=text" | 00:50 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: i pretty much followed the arch guide i liked under the 'preparing the logical volumes' area, but only made on partition / with 100%FREE specification, then jumped over to the ubuntu guide i liked and went to step 3 | 00:51 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, how much memory did you give the VM? | 00:51 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: 2 gigs | 00:51 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: yeah, replaced gfx_mode thing with text and still the same results | 00:54 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: i'll try giving it like 6 gigs | 00:55 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: no change | 00:56 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, I think it's a Virtualbox issue. What OS are you running it on? What CPU? | 00:59 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: do you think maybe installing with the radiobutton option lvm encrypted and letting it take the entire drive over, then moving boot off to another drive, then attempting to resize the encrypted lvm and installing win8.1 to the free space and then remaking the grub config on a chroot from the live cd would work? | 00:59 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: ubuntu 15.04 with intel cpu | 01:00 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, I don't think it has anything to do with that, it doesn't even get past loading the initramfs from the *boot* partition. | 01:00 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: well it's in efi mode | 01:00 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: and virtualbox has it's fit over that to being with.. to boot to grub i have to go run the .efi file manually | 01:01 |
| excelsio` | ok, so how's ubuntu on raspberry pi? | 01:01 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: but that's not gave me a problem with anything else | 01:01 |
| teward | excelsio`: depends on what you're doing with it | 01:01 |
| excelsio` | well I wanted to use it as like a media server maybe | 01:02 |
| excelsio` | plug in a USB backup drive. | 01:02 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: it's got 3 efi files actually... some mod file, a shim file and a grub file; the mod file doesn't boot to anything, and i've tried of course with both the shim and grub files and they seem about the same thing | 01:02 |
| excelsio` | run a big screen TV too or something. | 01:02 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, can you try https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Serial_redirect ? | 01:03 |
| MCourtenay | How do you modify what drive the OS will boot from on a server, from command line? Somehow my VDS decided it wants to reboot from a mounted drive in /tmp/ which doesn't exist, causing reboot to fail. | 01:03 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | frebark, and of course, remove quiet | 01:04 |
| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: i'll give it a try | 01:04 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | On the GRUB cmdline, no need to edit files. | 01:05 |
| domobobo | hello. The installer seems to be stuck at the creating an ext4 system. What is the login at the tty? | 01:09 |
| domobobo | nm, I got it | 01:11 |
| MCourtenay | what woud be the command line with grub? I can't seem to find any documentation on this despite searching. | 01:12 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | MCourtenay, are you asking how to get a command line prompt in GRUB? | 01:13 |
| hajj | hi | 01:14 |
| hajj | please how can i install itunes | 01:15 |
| domobobo | ok, crap, how do I create a boot disk from windows? unetbootin? | 01:15 |

| frebark | Eduard_Munteanu: thanks for the help. I will route around and play with crypttab a bit and see what i can do. | 01:24 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | sadaas2324234234, you might be able to port the package to your release and rebuild it | 01:24 |
| domobobo | Guest50480: maybe try installing chromium, just to test | 01:24 |

| domobobo | Guest50480: Im refering to your second pastebin | 01:59 |
| Guest50480 | dunno about the stuff in that comment (on the ask ubuntu post). I copy/pasted from there and what's seen in the paste was the output. | 02:00 |

| Guest50480 | ok | 02:01 |

| Guest50480 | domobobo: ahhh... suddenly it makes sense. | 02:02 |
| domobobo | cool | 02:02 |
| Guest50480 | maybe I can let chromium finish installing. We'll see what it does (just for shits n giggles). Then I'll do sudo apt-get install *libexif. If it installs the library maybe chrome will just launch. | 02:03 |

| njmbb8 | hey guys, i'm at the stage of the server install where it's asking me what software i want to install. | 02:04 |
| Guest50480 | ohhhh | 02:04 |
| domobobo | Guest50480: sudo apt-get install libexif* | 02:04 |
| njmbb8 | I want to set it up to experiment with web developement but also host files maybe | 02:04 |
| njmbb8 | my inclination is to go with LAMP server, but i want to use nginx instead of apache | 02:05 |
| Guest50480 | You are saying that the "paste" reflects an error in the command - not that something I wrote here (in this channel) does. | 02:05 |
| Guest50480 | domobobo: yes, I see it | 02:06 |
| domobobo | Guest50480: yes, you did a bad apt-get command, so it didn't install the various libexif* packages. That is what I saw in the pastebin you posted. So, if the libexif packages are what is needed, you haven't yet done that | 02:06 |
| Guest50480 | domobobo: right :> So should it be libexif* or *libexif ? | 02:07 |
| domobobo | Guest50480: On the end!! so the first one | 02:07 |
| Guest50480 | right on | 02:07 |
| njmbb8 | do you guys think i should go with LAMP or what? | 02:08 |
| domobobo | njmbb8: I can't answer, but Im curious what kind of web development you are looking at | 02:08 |
| poz | Hi everyone, I have a question about resizing partitions | 02:08 |
| domobobo | njmbb8: I guess php? | 02:08 |
| njmbb8 | yeah along with mysql | 02:09 |
| njmbb8 | which is why i'm thinking i should go with lamp, but i want nginx | 02:09 |
| poz | I ran out of space on my root part. so I want to resize it (with out reformatting it), to include another 32 gb on the same hard disc, but is currently unallocated. Any way to do this safely and easily? | 02:09 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | poz, and this isn't a LVM setup? | 02:10 |
| poz | what is a LVM set up? | 02:11 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | poz, what is the /dev device for it? | 02:11 |
| poz | /dev/sdb1 is boot, /dev/sdb2 is root, /dev/sdb3 is home and then the last 36.32 is unallocated, but I will be turning about 4 gb into swap | 02:12 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | poz, you could use gparted or something to move /home towards the end of the disk | 02:14 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | Then extend the root partition. | 02:14 |
| poz | does moving result in a loss of data? | 02:15 |
| poz | assuming all goes well** | 02:15 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | poz, no | 02:15 |
| poz | okay, I will try that | 02:15 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | poz, you might need to boot from a rescue disk | 02:16 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | Because /home is likely in use. | 02:16 |
| poz | yeah, I see | 02:16 |
| Guest50480 | domobobo: ftr, chromium works fine. I'll try install that library (afraid to type the name at this point) :> | 02:16 |
| Guest50480 | domobobo: yes, it helps when you type the command correctly (libexif* is installing) | 02:17 |
| poz | I will do that then! Thank you Eduard_Munteanu | 02:17 |
| Eduard_Munteanu | poz, mind recent versions of parted can't resize partitions, so you probably need to do that manually using fdisk/gdisk and resize2fs | 02:18 |

| ubuntu616 | Fistful_of_Coins: AMI's? | 02:31 |
| lDucks | I had Ubuntu installed on sdb .. and I installed my Windows OS on sda.. I know that this kills grub so I booted into a live CD and ran boot-repair, then restarted and I get an error that grub can't find an ext4 partition on sda. I tried reinstalling grub with rescatux and I get the ubuntu loading screen, and then the error comes up again | 02:31 |
| lDucks | Let me load it up so I can get the exact error message.. | 02:31 |
| lDucks | I also can load into Windows just fine | 02:32 |

| Fistful_of_Coins | i had a bunch of things setup on these, will have to upgrade them all and resave them | 02:32 |
| lDucks | Should I just run the journalctl -xb command when prompted? | 02:33 |
| ubuntu616 | Fistful_of_Coins: No idea, upgrades are more liely to suceed the more vanilla the setup, additional repos and apps can be issues. | 02:33 |
| Fistful_of_Coins | i see | 02:33 |
| ubuntu616 | Fistful_of_Coins: You should be using the LTL 5 year releases, 14.04 is one. | 02:33 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, where can I get the bootinfo summary from? | 02:34 |
| lDucks | Rather, where can I find | 02:35 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: When you run that tool it gives you a url, however on the mian gui of bootrepair is a button to run just the summary, we want what it looks like now. | 02:35 |
| lDucks | Ahh yeah I have that hold on | 02:36 |

| evil_dan2wik | fast boot has caused me too much pain | 02:43 |
| lDucks | I didn't explicitly tell it to enter hibernation mode.. So it shouldn't be | 02:44 |

| lDucks | Linux is the only thing on sdb | 02:46 |
| ubuntu616 | you say you can't see a ext4 on sda, none on the script lDucks | 02:47 |
| lDucks | Exactly haha.. That's why I'm so confused | 02:47 |

| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Right and what do you see in grub, and why is that a problem? | 02:57 |
| lDucks | Ok so grub has Ubuntu in there and it has Windows | 02:57 |
| lDucks | If I boot into Windows, it works perfectly fine. If I use Ubuntu, I get the sda error | 02:57 |

| ubuntu616 | lDucks: No prob, it may be that 3rd OS I see and other HD maybe confusing grub, just a guess, it seemed it booted ubuntu before. | 03:00 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, it has booted ubuntu before.. I unplugged the dirve ubuntu was on when I installed Windows, and then when I plugged everything back in and re-enabled grub, ubuntu would no longer load | 03:01 |
| domobobo | Guest52801: can you change your name, and then ask your questions? | 03:01 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Ah, well check that windows is off, the script warns it's not. | 03:03 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, I double checked and turned off fast boot but I had the same issue.. Downloading supergrub right now | 03:03 |
| ubuntu616 | not sure how accurate that is but if in that hybrid boot you will have issues. | 03:04 |
| Quorra | Anyone else using Crouton on Chromebook? | 03:04 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Have you booted back to windows to be sure it's off is all? | 03:04 |
| lDucks | Yeah that's what I did.. it was on and I turned it off but it still gave me the same error ubuntu616 | 03:05 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Hopefully tha is what the issue is, if you get booted in than run sudo grub-install /dev/sdX X is the HD you want to boot from, than a sudo update grub you may know this already. | 03:07 |
| lDucks | Booted into which ubuntu616 ? | 03:08 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: ubuntu | 03:08 |
| ubuntu616 | those are linux commands ;) | 03:08 |
| lDucks | Yeah I just got confused between my live cd or the os :P | 03:09 |
| illuminated | can anyone explain dbus to me? | 03:09 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Cool hard to not over explai stuff for me. | 03:10 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: I can boot from the cli and many other reinstall grub plans, I just have suoergrub in a flash with other tools and just boot to the OS. | 03:12 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, unfortunately fast boot wasn't my issue .. Trying supergrub again | 03:12 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: It probably was you ran repairs with it on, that is an issue. | 03:13 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, ah that's true. Should I try those repairs again then? | 03:13 |
| domobobo | illuminated: I think dbus is a way for programs to communicate with each other, across the OS | 03:14 |
| lDucks | Because even with supergrub I get the error ubuntu616 | 03:14 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Your choice, personally I would get booted in than you have full control. | 03:14 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, I can't get booted in :P | 03:14 |
| illuminated | domobobo, yeah I kinda understand that. I guess I just need to do some googling to learn 'more' than that. | 03:14 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Ah really, supergrub has several reading choices? | 03:14 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, Yeah it has a list of linux OS's and then below that is the normal grub list | 03:15 |
| lDucks | I tried the different linux options, all loaded to a certain point and then I got that error again | 03:15 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Hmm strange, the boot repair does suggest a basic repair, sure try again. So you have not had anything but those ntfs on sda right? | 03:17 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, that's correct. I ran the boot repair again, completed with errors http://paste.ubuntu.com/11834086 | 03:18 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Your booting sdb right? | 03:20 |
| lDucks | Yeah | 03:20 |
| lDucks | Same error ubuntu616 | 03:20 |
| lDucks | EXT4-fs (sda1): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem.. And then it enters emergency mode... | 03:20 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: If you look at the top the sda is looking for the ext4 in sdb UUID, never seen that, my last guess here is that the grub in sda and sdb in the MBR are getting confused, just a guess. | 03:22 |
| lDucks | How would I fix that ubuntu616 ? | 03:22 |
| lDucks | Is there a way to completely wipe grub from the disks and install fresh? | 03:22 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: I'm not sure, I would try unplugging HD's | 03:22 |
| lDucks | Alright | 03:22 |
| ubuntu616 | except sdb | 03:22 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: If you end up with just sdb plugged in and still can't boot, I would try that repiar again than. | 03:23 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, so when I run from supergrub it gets all the way to loading the network drivers, and then crashes with no error message | 03:24 |
| lDucks | So it is loading into Ubuntu, no? | 03:24 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: your seeing the boot text till this poaint? | 03:25 |
| lDucks | yes | 03:25 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: What have you unplugged? | 03:25 |
| ubuntu616 | what HD's | 03:26 |
| DeaDSouL | hi, i have a bash question.. how can I store all inputs starting from the second one into an array ? ex: arr1=(one two three); arr2=(${arr1[@]:1); ....... how can I do that with $@ ? | 03:26 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, That time nothing. Currently running it with sda unplugged and it seems to be hanging | 03:26 |
| DeaDSouL | I know it's not a bash channel... but I'm sure there is a lot of geeks here :P | 03:26 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, yup definitely hanging | 03:26 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: See from that point if you can get a tty with ctrl-alt-f1 | 03:26 |
| lDucks | kk | 03:26 |
| lDucks | I don't understand why it is hanging it shouldn't care about sda at all.. | 03:27 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Are you seeing a tty login? | 03:28 |
| lDucks | Nope | 03:28 |
| lDucks | It kills the process and I end up with a system command line | 03:28 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: You have an apple setup on another HD right? | 03:28 |
| lDucks | What do you mean by apple setup? | 03:29 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: What does the command line say or look like? | 03:29 |
| lDucks | Just my computer name, justin-desktop# | 03:29 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: I thoughtb there was a 3rd OS on there? | 03:29 |
| lDucks | Only two ubuntu616 | 03:29 |
| lDucks | The third one you saw is probably from the live iso | 03:29 |
| lDucks | 2HDs, one with Linux and the other with Windows | 03:30 |
| domobobo | lDucks: if you can run the bootrepair application from a livecd, there is a useful option to gather data about your HDDs and partition setups. You may want to try posting that | 03:30 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Yeah unplug all that | 03:30 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, when I unplug the Windows one it hangs on startup | 03:30 |
| lDucks | For some reason grub keeps checking sda when it shouldn't be | 03:30 |
| lDucks | Maybe run a boot repair with sda unplugged, ubuntu616 ? | 03:31 |
| lDucks | I think I know the issue | 03:31 |
| lDucks | But not how to fix it | 03:31 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: We can't use the grub as is, remove all but sdb, ryn that repair and try to boot sdb | 03:31 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, there were files in sda that were symlinked from linux.. I think Linux is trying to mount that drive still | 03:31 |
| lDucks | I deleted the links and wiped the drive but it is probably trying to mount it | 03:32 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: lDucks that would be in fstab in ubuntu I think, not sure. | 03:33 |
| ubuntu616 | not sure on symlinks I never use them | 03:33 |
| lDucks | I think that might be the issue since it's looking for an ext4 partition on sda1 and it is only finding Windows | 03:34 |
| lDucks | That would make complete sense because that's what was there before, an ext4 partition | 03:34 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: not really | 03:34 |
| lDucks | D: | 03:34 |
| ubuntu616 | grub is not looking for symlinks | 03:35 |
| lDucks | It isn't grub | 03:35 |
| lDucks | I think it's loading Ubuntu just fine, and the issue is Ubuntu | 03:35 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Not sure in the end, matbe others can help, sorry. | 03:35 |
| lDucks | You've helped a lot, thanks for your time ubuntu616 | 03:35 |
| ubuntu616 | no prob | 03:35 |

| arunpyasi | Guys is there any web based Email Server ? | 03:39 |
| Ben64 | define 'web based' | 03:39 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, I was right I removed the line and it loaded just fine | 03:40 |
| lDucks | Thank you so, so much for your help I probably wouldn't have figured this out without you :P | 03:40 |
| ubuntu616 | lDucks: Cool, good job. ;) | 03:40 |
| arunpyasi | Ben64: you don't know what is web based ? | 03:40 |
| Dylan_ | what should I do after installing ubuntu? | 03:40 |
| isaiah22 | good question | 03:40 |
| lDucks | ubuntu616, such a simple issue and so much time spent haha.. I've never had a smooth install when trying to dual boot so I guess it's just my luck that this happened | 03:40 |
| ubuntu616 | ;) | 03:41 |
| Dylan_ | Like is there any fun perhaps u could do after u installed ubuntu | 03:41 |
| Dylan_ | Or something that will get u interested haha | 03:41 |
| isaiah22 | dylan_ What type of "fun"? lol. Exploring a new OS is enough fun imo | 03:41 |
| ubuntu616 | Dylan_: Just "Follow your Bliss. | 03:41 |
| Dylan_ | Ok:) | 03:42 |
| Dylan_ | is there anyway also u can get ubuntu as stable no lag at all on a virtual machine? | 03:42 |
| Ben64 | arunpyasi: i'm asking you to explain what you mean | 03:42 |
| arunpyasi | Ben42: I mean, email servers having web frontends | 03:43 |
| Ben64 | you can run any email server and put whatever frontend you want | 03:44 |
| Dylan_ | How do u run a FTP | 03:44 |
| Dylan_ | ?? | 03:44 |
| Dylan_ | Do u need to install ram or something in it also | 03:44 |
| Ben64 | ftp is very old and outdated, you should use sftp instead | 03:45 |

| njmbb8 | hey, when installing the ubuntu server, can i see which drive is mounted at which(sda, sdb, etc.) my thumbdrive that i'm booting from is acting as a hdd right now and i want to make sure i don't want to install the mbr to the thumb drive lol | 03:58 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: "sudo lsblk -f" | 03:58 |
| njmbb8 | where do i input that? | 03:59 |
| njmbb8 | it's asking what drive i want to install the mbr to right now | 03:59 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: at the shell command-line | 03:59 |
| njmbb8 | well, yeah lol | 03:59 |
| njmbb8 | but how do i get there? | 04:00 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: in the installer you can back out of each step of the installer process to the main menu, where the shell option is near the end of the list I think | 04:00 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: for detailed installer documentation see https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/installation-guide/amd64/ch06.html | 04:02 |
| njmbb8 | execute a shell should bring me to the right place, yeah? | 04:03 |
| TJ- | njbair: chapter 6.2 seems to suggest shell is the next-to-last option on the installer main menu | 04:03 |
| TJ- | njbair: Yes... at the shell command-line you can then do "lsblk -f" | 04:03 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: : Yes... at the shell command-line you can then do "lsblk -f" | 04:03 |
| njmbb8 | ok, how do i get back to the install after that? | 04:04 |
| njmbb8 | i just want to know so i'm not up shit's creek afterwards | 04:04 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: read the guide I gave you, it's specifically about the main meny and the components and how to work with them | 04:05 |
| njmbb8 | caaaaaaaaaan do! | 04:05 |
| njmbb8 | :D | 04:05 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: I'd guess after the shell you want to use the "bootloader-installer" component, but you know better than me where you were when you paused :) | 04:06 |
| njmbb8 | TJ-, lsblk: not found | 04:07 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: that's not very friendly of the installer! | 04:07 |
| gnomethrower | Hey there | 04:07 |
| gnomethrower | I'd like to report a packaging quirk/bug in the mercurial apt package | 04:08 |
| njmbb8 | ikr?!?! | 04:08 |
| gnomethrower | anyone got suggestions on where I should go for that. | 04:08 |
| njmbb8 | and ls mnt/ gives me nothing | 04:08 |
| gnomethrower | that?* | 04:08 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: I know it has a minimal environment but that tool is almost essential on larger systems. You could try "blkid" | 04:08 |
| TJ- | !bug | gnomethrower | 04:08 |
| ubottu | gnomethrower: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 04:08 |

| gartral | hey all, anyone having issues with steam and external HDDs suddenly being unable to contain a steam directory? | 04:09 |
| TJ- | gartral: out of space maybe? try "df -h" | 04:09 |

| pr0metheu5 | Didn't get much help in #kubuntu so I'm asking here as well, I just installed Kubuntu 15.04 and I'm getting a login loop, where after logging in, it just goes to the splash screen loading, and immediately back to the login screen. Either this, or it just logs in to a light grey screen and cursor, nothing else. | 04:11 |
| pr0metheu5 | Any ideas? | 04:11 |
| TJ- | pr0metheu5: Was that a fresh install or an upgrade from a previous release? | 04:12 |
| pr0metheu5 | Fresh Install, TJ- | 04:12 |
| abe | trying this for long time but fails to show in environment --- export PATH=$PATH:/home/ab2qik/mongodb/bin | 04:12 |
| gartral | TJ-: the problem, is that it has games that've been on it for a year, and now Steam refuses to mount it, at all | 04:13 |
| abe | edited ~./profile | 04:13 |
| njmbb8 | TJ-, bootloader-installer not found | 04:13 |
| njmbb8 | D:4 | 04:14 |
| njmbb8 | D: | 04:14 |
| TJ- | pr0metheu5: OK, so no left-overs to cause it. I usually go to the logs first for issues like this. The display manager logs maybe, in the directory "/var/log/lightdm/", or the user's X session log in the user's home directory "/home/$USER/.xsession-errors". Also, check if you can log-in without the GUI. Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get a virtual terminal (VT), then log-in there. If that works, you know this is related to X/the Desktop GUI. Press Ctrl+Alt+F7 to get back to | 04:14 |
| TJ- | the GUI VT | 04:14 |
| abe | echo $PATH shows the entry is there | 04:15 |
| TJ- | njmbb8: Are you still in the terminal command line? You should have read the reminder when you entered it - Press Ctrl+D or type "exit" to return to the menu :) | 04:15 |
| pr0metheu5 | TJ-, I can log in via the terminal | 04:15 |
| histo | abe: did you source .profile if you haven't logged out and back in yet? | 04:15 |
| njmbb8 | i read it, i don't think it mentioned anything about that | 04:15 |
| histo | pr0metheu5: usually related to video | 04:16 |
| gartral | TJ-: http://storage1.static.itmages.com/i/15/0707/h_1436242612_9801065_d1a9372540.png <- wierd error | 04:16 |
| pr0metheu5 | TJ-, I have since downloaded updates and upgrades using terminal hoping this would fix the issue | 04:16 |
| njmbb8 | i should have read more about it i suppose | 04:16 |
| abe | histo: did both, source and logged in /out | 04:16 |
| TJ- | pr0metheu5: OK, so it is definitely GUI related. I can't help you further right now I have to leave, but this should help others focus on where to look | 04:16 |
| histo | abe: also why not put it in your bashrc ? | 04:16 |
| SuicidalZerg | How do I outright disable queued TRIM commands permanently for an SSD? | 04:17 |

| pr0metheu5 | TJ-, gotcha, thanks | 04:17 |
| gartral | SuicidalZerg: you really DON'T want to do that. | 04:17 |
| abe | histo: according to ubuntu, .profile is the place to put it | 04:17 |
| histo | abe: what else is in your .profile? | 04:18 |
| SuicidalZerg | Well, with my particular SSD, the alternative appears to be data corruption: http://linux.slashdot.org/story/15/06/16/201217/trim-and-linux-tread-cautiously-and-keep-backups-handy | 04:18 |

| abe | histo: http://pastebin.com/RsTufUHb | 04:19 |
| abe | histo: the command does not work unless full path used | 04:19 |
| histo | abe: did you chmod +x whatever_command | 04:20 |

| njmbb8 | ok, so this is weird, it booted successfully, but it my monitor lost connection | 04:20 |

| azizLIGHT | how do i boot in linux 3.19.0-15-generic rather than 3.19.0-21-generic in 15.04? i always have to press left shift for menu options and hit advanced options for ubuntu and then select 3.19.0-15-generic | 04:27 |
| azizLIGHT | is there a way to automate it | 04:27 |
| azizLIGHT | or get rid of the newer one | 04:27 |
| histo | azizLIGHT: you'd have to change the default kernel in /etc/default/grub and sudo update-grub | 04:28 |
| histo | azizLIGHT: or you can uninstall the newer kernel. Choice is yours. | 04:28 |
| abe | histo: this works as its full path: http://pastebin.com/EUNdSpGK | 04:28 |
| azizLIGHT | which one is easier histo | 04:28 |
| histo | abe: you aren't typing the full path there in your paste | 04:30 |
| histo | azizLIGHT: that's up to you. | 04:30 |
| abe | histo: without full path: http://pastebin.com/zXP52DPU | 04:30 |
| histo | abe: specify the full path for data | 04:30 |
| histo | abe: but not the command mongod | 04:30 |
| pr0metheu5 | Didn't get much help in #kubuntu so I'm asking here as well, I just installed Kubuntu 15.04 and I'm getting a login loop, where after logging in, it just goes to the splash screen loading, and immediately back to the login screen. Either this, or it just logs in to a light grey screen and cursor, nothing else. | 04:31 |

| pr0metheu5 | I believe it to be a video card issue, as I have since logged in to TTY and updated + upgraded + dist upgraded, but it didn't get fixed | 04:31 |

| abe | histo: thankyou, it worked: $ mongod --dbpath mongodb/bin/data/ | 04:34 |
| histo | abe: should be mongod --dbpath /home/your_username/mongodb/bin/data | 04:35 |
| histo | or whatever your directory structure is | 04:35 |
| gartral | omg this bug is driving me up a freaking wall | 04:36 |
| abe | histo: this is located in home dir: mongodb/bin/data/ | 04:38 |
| histo | gartral: what bug is that? | 04:38 |
| histo | abe: yeah you should probably specify the full path so if you aren't in the home directory when you call whatever mongod is it works | 04:39 |
| histo | abe: you can create an alias in your .bashrc to save you all the typing | 04:39 |
| gartral | histo: /last me, you'll see | 04:39 |
| abe | histo: thks i realise that but i was in home dir to it was done relatively. | 04:39 |
| histo | gartral: not in my client and i'm too lazy to scrollback that far | 04:40 |
| abe | histo: under home dir there is .bash_history and .bash_logout but no .bashrc? | 04:43 |
| gartral | histo: short of it is steam is complaining that the 1tb hdd that half my games have lived on for a year is suddenly "not executable" | 04:43 |

| === Blaster is now known as Guest22310 | ||
| gartral | histo: 777 across the drive till it's fixed, and yes, it's always mounted | 04:45 |

| azizLIGHT | i wanna add more servers but keep the same settings | 04:49 |
| histo | abe: your alias or whatever you are looking for .bashrc for. Or you can create a .bashrc | 04:51 |

| gartral | histo: well, save for the non-folders, because that'd be silly | 04:56 |
| gartral | histo: the only way you can, through steam's crap interface that's needed a facelift since the days of WinXP | 04:56 |
| histo | abe: not pointing to data but for the whole command. For example: alias mdb='mongod --dbfile /home/whatever/somedir/data' | 04:56 |
| histo | gartral: Yeah I'm not familiar with steam that's why I asked. | 04:57 |
| gartral | histo: you should install it, if only temporarily... and share the pain of millions of others with it's aweful, low contrast, non-comformant interface | 04:58 |
| histo | lol | 04:58 |
| histo | gartral: I'd check their forums to see if someone else had your issue | 04:59 |
| gartral | histo: back in 2012, and they were using an exFAT drive... nothing recent really | 04:59 |
| xentity1x | Hi can anyone help me figure our why chome cant resolve host. It says dns probe finushed bad config. | 05:00 |
| abe | histo: alias to come after: export PATH=$PATH:/home/ab2qik/mongodb/bin | 05:01 |
| histo | abe: sure | 05:01 |
| histo | xentity1x: can you resolve anything? | 05:01 |
| adrian_1908 | hello. I'm planning to make some (mostly test based) presentations related to programming. Aside from high quality font rendering and the ability to color individual words within a text block, I'd like to use the occasional animation/transition. | 05:02 |
| xentity1x | Histo, dont think so | 05:02 |
| adrian_1908 | Does anyone have experience with that and could recommend a free program? | 05:02 |
| xentity1x | Cant even ping anything | 05:02 |
| xentity1x | Although my phone connects throygh the same wireless network | 05:03 |
| abe | histo: thanks.. | 05:05 |
| xentity1x | Histo: any idea where to start troubleshooting? | 05:05 |
| long | ? | 05:06 |
| long | help | 05:06 |
| TJ- | adrian_1908: The default Office suite, LibreOffice, has a component called Impress (Presentation) which may be suitable | 05:08 |
| histo | xentity1x: dig @8.8.8.8 yahoo.com | 05:10 |
| adrian_1908 | TJ-: Yes, thanks. I'm looking at it at the moment. From what I gather, it does support animation of on-screen items. I will have to see if text coloring the way I want it is possible. Some programs only allow one color per unique text block, which would prevent "syntax highlighting" :) | 05:11 |
| histo | xentity1x: does that resolve? | 05:11 |
| xentity1x | Histo: i thibk so. It says 1 server found. | 05:11 |
| histo | xentity1x: did it show an ip? | 05:12 |
| xentity1x | Sorry im typing this on my phone. Cant post output. | 05:12 |
| histo | xentity1x: how are you getting your current nameservers? | 05:12 |
| xentity1x | Hist: i see someyhing that looks like an ip under answer section | 05:13 |
| doctorly | adrian_1908: what are you looking for again? Don't have enough history to see it | 05:13 |
| histo | xentity1x: Okay. How are you currently connecting to your network and what settings are you using? | 05:13 |
| xentity1x | Histo: can you be more specific | 05:14 |
| adrian_1908 | doctorly: Just a presentation software, I want to mostly display code an appealing manner. I'll most likely create the presentation, then go through it while i record myself talking. At least that's the idea, I haven't done it before. | 05:14 |
| histo | xentity1x: Not really. How are you connected to your network? wifi, wired, or some other means? Do you use DHCP or are you assigning a static IP? | 05:15 |
| adrian_1908 | doctorly: for syntax highlighting, it would be important that I can color individual passages of text. | 05:15 |
| histo | xentity1x: and what application are you using to manage that connection | 05:15 |
| xentity1x | Hist: wifi. Think im using dhcp but not certain. I just use the default ububtu program. | 05:15 |
| adrian_1908 | Until today I had planned to do it in a video editor, but then it occurred to me that a presentation software is probably much better suited. | 05:16 |
| histo | xentity1x: okay in that network connection thing you can try specifying nameservers under 'edit connection'. Try setting yours to googles public nameservers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 to see if it fixes your issue. | 05:17 |
| doctorly | adrian_1908: Syntax highlighting will be difficult to get right, especially in dynamic languages, unless you are planning on manually doing all of it. You would be better off taking screen shots and cropping in my opinion. Especially since you could zoom in on your editor and then shrink, so things don't looked shrinked. | 05:17 |
| histo | xentity1x: sounds like your wireless router isn't giving you proper nameservers. | 05:17 |
| adrian_1908 | doctorly: manually if fine, I can handle that overhead. I'll let my editor to it dynamically and then match it by hand. The slides can't hold walls of text anyway. | 05:18 |
| histo | adrian_1908: why not screenshot your IDE with syntax highlighting. | 05:18 |
| xentity1x | Histo: is this under ipv4 settings? | 05:18 |
| histo | xentity1x: yes | 05:19 |
| histo | xentity1x: before you go too crazy. Lets make sure your browser isn't the issue. In a terminal try ping -c 5 google.com | 05:19 |
| wafflejock | adrian_1908, you could use github pages and jekyll too http://jekyllrb.com/docs/templates/#code-snippet-highlighting | 05:20 |
| xentity1x | Histo: yeah that doesnt work | 05:20 |
| adrian_1908 | histo: I wonder if that's flexible enough. Maybe I want to use gradients or transitions withing the slide. | 05:20 |
| histo | xentity1x: ping doesn't work? | 05:20 |
| xentity1x | Unknown host google.com | 05:21 |
| histo | xentity1x: yeah specify those two nameservers and give her a go. | 05:21 |
| wafflejock | adrian_1908, personally I've just used libre office impress for doing similar things but no code in there just did that in an editor and recorded the whole screen (honestly should have zoomed in though, hindsight is 20/20) | 05:22 |
| bodhi_zazen | adrian_1908, impress is the place to start. you can import a pp presentation if you have one | 05:22 |
| xentity1x | Histo: not entirely sure hiw to do that. If i click edit on my wifi connection. I see a field called dns servers under ipv4 settings. Is that the right place to look? | 05:22 |
| doctorly | adrian_1908: Yeah, the previous suggestions would definitely work. You could try google slides if you wanted to use cloud software as well, it is very nice. | 05:23 |
| TJ- | adrian_1908: Have you considered using HTML? also, there's an interesting overview and comparison of various Linux presentation tools here: http://shallowsky.com/linux/LinuxPresentations.html | 05:23 |
| adrian_1908 | wafflejock, bodhi_zazen: thanks, I think that's what I'll test drive then. | 05:23 |
| adrian_1908 | TJ-: another option, but Impress is probably the better choice here. As i said, manual highlighting wouldn't be a hassle to me. The other features are much more important. | 05:24 |
| histo | xentity1x: yeah that's where you put 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 | 05:24 |
| histo | xentity1x: actually if it's a single field you can put 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 | 05:25 |
| bodhi_zazen | lots of Effects in presentations might seem cool at first, but it gets distracting F A S T | 05:25 |
| xentity1x | Histo: doesnt fix the problem | 05:26 |
| histo | xentity1x: what happens if you ping -c 3 google.com now? | 05:27 |
| xentity1x | Histo: same output | 05:27 |
| Fudge | any fixes for dropbox on trusty? only way i can make it work is running it with sudo | 05:27 |
| adrian_1908 | bodhi_zazen: Point taken, I'm a minimalist myself. I want to be very pleasant ti watch though. If i add a line of code in the middle, it might be nice to have the bottom slide down and the line fade in. Stuff like that. | 05:28 |
| adrian_1908 | *it to be pleasent to watch | 05:28 |
| hands | I am lookig for a little help. making the audio sample rate 44.1k and the bitrate to 16bit. so that i can run Mixxx a certain way. | 05:29 |

| bodhi_zazen | hands what apps ? jack ? | 05:30 |
| cfhowlett | hands, ask #opensourcemusicians | 05:30 |
| histo | xentity1x: nm-tool | grep DNS | 05:30 |
| hands | thanks. cfhowlett. enjoy your night guys | 05:31 |
| xentity1x | Histo: that returns 3 lines. One of which looks like my ip. The second are the two google dns servers. | 05:31 |
| hands | join #opensourcemusicians | 05:31 |

| === Guest37201 is now known as RahulAN | ||
| histo | xentity1x: is that listed above or below your other nameservers? | 05:35 |
| xentity1x | Histo: ok got it | 05:35 |
| xentity1x | Histo: above | 05:36 |
| histo | xentity1x: Are any other devices connected to your router able to get out to the internet? | 05:37 |
| hands | #opensourcemusicians are asleep | 05:37 |
| xentity1x | Histo: pretty sure my phone is on wifi now | 05:37 |
| xentity1x | Histo: okay yeah 100 percent sure my phony is on wifi. I just disabled cell data. | 05:39 |
| TJ- | histo: I'm wondering if this is a NetworkManager <> dhclient <>dnsmasq issue. Maybe check if "/etc/resolv.conf" is a symlink to "/run/resolvconf/resolv.conf", that it contains the "nameserver 127.0.1.1", and that "ps -efly | grep NetworkManager/dnsmasq" lists the private dnsmasq NM service process ? | 05:40 |
| histo | xentity1x: ^^ | 05:40 |
| TJ- | histo: xentity1x Also, might be worth checking that NetworkManager is getting a DHCP lease from the route. This command "grep -A10 'DHCPv4 state changed preinit' /var/log/syslog" should return something similar to my own results: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11834398/ | 05:41 |
| BBLLCC | hi | 05:42 |
| xentity1x | TJ, histo: okay if i open resolve.conf in a text Editor. It says nameserver 10.0.0.1 | 05:42 |
| BBLLCC | can anyone tell me how to deactivate the splash screen? 15.04 | 05:43 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: really "10.0.0.1" not "127....." ? | 05:43 |
| xentity1x | Tj, yes | 05:43 |
| TJ- | histo: ^^^^^ I think there's the culprit. I suspect there are more than 1 interface defined (manually) in NM connections, or a manual setting in "/etc/network/interfaces" - what do you think? | 05:44 |
| TJ- | BBLLCC: At boot-time? Edit e.g. "gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub", locate the line "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" " and remove the "splash" setting, then "sudo update-grub" | 05:46 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: has this Ubuntu PC been used in other locations with different network settings, or, does it have a broadband 3G/4G modem attached or installed? | 05:46 |
| xentity1x | Tj: No ive never changed the settings. I do have to use a funky vpn client for work that sometimes causes problems. | 05:48 |
| xentity1x | Tj: i am also on a diffetent wifi network tonight. | 05:48 |
| BBLLCC | TJ-, that command also quiets splash on closing the os, right? | 05:49 |
| xentity1x | Tj: so should i just edit resolv.conf? | 05:49 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: I think the VPN client is the culprit, and I don't think you should edit "/etc/resov.conf" I *suspect* that the VPN client has replaced the symbolic link there with an actual file. Can you do "ls -l /etc/resolv.conf" and see if you get something very similar to this: "/etc/resolv.conf -> ../run/resolvconf/resolv.conf" | 05:52 |
| marchesini | kk | 05:53 |
| xentity1x | Tj: i get somethibg that looks pretty different | 05:54 |
| xentity1x | Tj: it has my username and a timestamp | 05:54 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: That is the problem then. The VPN client is misbehaving and doing things it never should do. Let's fix that for now until the next time you use it at least: "sudo rm /etc/resolv.conf && sudo ln -s /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf" ... that is creating the correct symbolic link | 05:56 |
| TJ- | "ln" is lower-case L and short for "link" | 05:57 |
| xentity1x | Tj: okay i did that | 06:03 |
| xentity1x | Tj: any other steps? | 06:03 |
| Sam___ | Hey guys, I am Sam.. I am new to Ubuntu. I installed ubuntu 15.04 OS yesterday on my system and I couldn't login. I am stuck in login page. can someone help me please? | 06:06 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: If you do "cat /etc/resolv.conf" now it should have some # comments and the line: "nameserver 127.0.1.1" | 06:07 |
| marchesini | Sam___, try reinstall and write the password that you choose on a paper | 06:07 |
| Sam___ | I reinstalled couple of times. | 06:07 |
| Sam___ | I know the correct password | 06:07 |
| Sam___ | I was able to login at ctrl+alt+f1 | 06:08 |
| xentity1x | Tj: it says no such file or directory | 06:08 |
| marchesini | i don't remember if need the username | 06:08 |
| Sam___ | The issue is I am stuck at login page. | 06:08 |
| TJ- | Sam___: Are you able to log-in at a terminal? Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and try at the "login" prompt. If that works you know its a GUI issue, not password. To return to the GUI press Alt+F7 | 06:08 |
| marchesini | but if the ubuntu guess your username try that you choose | 06:08 |
| Sam___ | The issue is I am stuck in the login page. its a login loop. | 06:09 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: I think you must have mistyped part of the commands I gave you then. Retry: "sudo ln -s /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf" | 06:09 |
| marchesini | hmm | 06:09 |
| TJ- | Sam___: are you able to use the Guest session? | 06:09 |
| marchesini | i know what you having | 06:10 |
| Sam___ | No, i couldnt enter as guest as well | 06:10 |
| marchesini | when my system do this i format | 06:10 |
| TJ- | Sam___: you're the 3rd person to report this issue in the last 2 days | 06:10 |
| xentity1x | Tj: brilliant! It works. | 06:10 |
| Sam___ | I saw couple of forums and I dont see anything that works for me | 06:10 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: Good... now you *shoot* that stupid VPN client!!! | 06:10 |
| xentity1x | Tj:haha. Unfortunately its essential for me to use. Any idea whats goibg to happen next time i run it? | 06:11 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: which VPN client is it? | 06:11 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: Same thing, it's going to overwrite the symbolic link with a file with your company's LAN DNS server address in | 06:12 |
| Sam___ | I am new to Ubuntu, migrating for MAC.. So not sure what to do here.. | 06:12 |
| Sam___ | Is there any fix to solve this login loop issue? | 06:12 |
| TJ- | Sam___: Are you using a different PC right now? | 06:12 |
| Sam___ | Yes, I am using different pc for this chat. | 06:13 |
| xentity1x | Tj: not even sure. The gui doesnt have a name on it. Think its just something the it dept hacked together for the linux users. | 06:13 |
| TJ- | Sam___: Does the problem PC have a network connection? | 06:13 |
| Sam___ | Yes, TJ. It has network connection | 06:13 |
| xentity1x | Tj: okay i shoukd be able to fix the issue the sameway? | 06:14 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: hmmm, not good. If I were you I'd create a Virtual Machine with another instance of the OS in it, and use *that* for company business and let the VPN abuse it all it wants, then it won't affect your regular Ubuntu experience | 06:14 |
| xentity1x | Hmm good idea | 06:14 |
| TJ- | Sam___: Can you get the PC to a terminal using Ctrl+Alt+F1 and log-in, so we can do some diagnosis and send some log files to a pastebin? | 06:15 |
| nwawy | I’m looking for a way to split the screen videos in ubuntu to use for Google Cardboard. in my android ? any idea ?? how ? | 06:15 |
| xentity1x | Tj: thanks again | 06:15 |
| TJ- | xentity1x: Glad we got you sorted :) | 06:15 |
| nwawy | ??????? | 06:17 |
| Sam___ | Sure TJ, I can do that.. I've logged in at ctrl+alt+f1.. can you please tell me what i should do next. please note that I am ubuntu virgin :) | 06:17 |
| TJ- | Sam___: We'll treat you gently :) I'm going to give you some commands to type *exactly* as I show them, inside double-quotes. | 06:17 |
| baizon | still no firefox 39 update? :( | 06:18 |
| Sam___ | Thanks. | 06:18 |
| TJ- | Sam___: First we'll ensure the PC has a pastebin tool installed. "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" | 06:18 |
| TJ- | baizon: It's in the mozilla-dev-team PPA but not been promoted to main yet because it is causing unexplained crashes on 12.04 | 06:18 |
| baizon | TJ-: thx | 06:19 |
| nwawy | I’m looking for a way to split the screen videos in ubuntu to use for Google Cardboard. in my android ? any idea ?? how ? | 06:19 |
| Sam___ | @TJ, I used that command. Pastebin is installed now | 06:19 |
| TJ- | baizon: See https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ubuntu/firefox-next | 06:20 |
| TJ- | baizon: I'm experiencing some regressions in Firefox 39 on 14.04, so you might want to wait | 06:20 |
| TJ- | Sam___: OK ... first let's paste a couple of log files: "pastebinit <( cat $HOME/.xsession-errors )" and then "pastebinit <( sudo cat /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log )" and tell me the 2 URLs those commands give you | 06:22 |
| Sam___ | @TJ.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/11834501 | 06:26 |
| Sam___ | and http://paste.ubuntu.com/11834505 (for lightdm log) | 06:26 |

| MoL0ToV | hi to all! my ubuntu desktop shown only one monitor resolution. howto add all other native resolutions? | 06:29 |
| TJ- | Sam___: yes, that's the significant issue, nothing else in lightdm.log | 06:30 |
| Sam___ | So is it issue with memory? I didnt quiet get that.. | 06:30 |
| Sam___ | what should I do to fix it? | 06:30 |
| ubuntu-studio | dats everything | 06:31 |
| TJ- | Sam___: I want you to try posting the crash file to a new Ubuntu bug report. "sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_usr_lib_i386-linux-gnu_hud_hud-service.120.crash" - that is the path to an existing crash dump, but it's a bit of a mouthful so I suggest you first do "sudo -i" to get a root shell, then use tab-completion to generate the filename for you with "ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_usr" and then press the tab key and it should auto-complete the filename for you, or offer you | 06:34 |
| TJ- | choices if several crash files match, in which case choose any of them | 06:34 |
| TJ- | Sam___: It should collect some additional files and give you the option to post them, and then give you a bug report number. If that is all good, tell me the bug number you get | 06:36 |
| Sam___ | I did that and i got couple of options like .. S for sending the bug report, V for viewing the bug report... I did send the bug report.. but i can only see ............ in the whole screen.. I dont see anyticket number. | 06:44 |
| TJ- | Sam___: Hmmm... I was afraid of that, I suspect it may try to launch a web-browser. In the good ole days it was a command-line only tool... let me check | 06:45 |
| Sam___ | ok | 06:47 |
| TJ- | Sam___: OK, I think that's it, but there's a command-line alternative:) ... | 06:47 |

| Fevix | Thanks. | 06:48 |

| auronandace | Fevix: your prompt will give you output once its finished | 06:48 |
| Fevix | Also, has there been any success in dding a Win10 Preview ISO to a flash drive for booting? THat's what I'm trying right now. | 06:49 |
| TJ- | Fevix: no; from another terminal you can send it the USR1 signal to get it to report its current progress on its own terminal,. as in "kill -USR1 <pid-of-dd-process>" | 06:49 |
| Fevix | TJ-, always the incredibly helpful dude. | 06:49 |
| auronandace | Fevix: i don't know if the win10 iso is made to be dd'ed | 06:49 |
| auronandace | Fevix: best to ask the ##windows guys | 06:50 |
| TJ- | Fevix: If the ISO image is a hybrid bootable then it will work... dd simply copies blocks from one device to another. Whether it boots depends on the PC firmware/BIOS | 06:50 |
| Fevix | Well I need to boot into a Win10 dev preview to dualboot Ubuntu and WIndows, I figured it'd be easiest to use a USB boot disk for the job. | 06:51 |
| Fevix | ##windows on this server? | 06:51 |
| auronandace | Fevix: freenode yeah | 06:51 |
| TJ- | Fevix: I hybrid bootable means as well as the standard ISO9660 optical media layout it has an alternative hard-disk boot partition table and boot-loader code, so it can boot as optical media or 'regular' disk device | 06:52 |
| Sam___ | @TJ, I ran apport-cli command. same issue. I dont see any bug report number. I see just .......... | 06:52 |
| TJ- | Fevix: the program "geteltorito" will show you the boot loader(s) in the ISO image | 06:53 |
| TJ- | Sam___: that's *really* annoying... let me see if I can find a new report against hud in the bug tracker that might be yours :) | 06:53 |
| Fevix | ##windows people say that WIn10 preview can't do USB live boot. | 06:54 |
| Sam___ | I just sent again. So maybe you can check for the recent timestamp.. | 06:54 |
| Fevix | How can I load the ISO alongside Ubuntu to allow me to dualboot into it? | 06:54 |
| sennn | Fevix, use ultraiso software make bootableUSB | 06:55 |
| auronandace | Fevix: not a hybrid iso then so dd'ing it won't make it bootable from usb | 06:55 |
| TJ- | Sam___: no, it hasn't posted a report. That's really annoying! | 06:55 |
| Sam___ | There is an option to keep the file and send later. | 06:55 |
| Fevix | Can I safely close the terminal window? | 06:56 |
| TJ- | Sam___: this is the page, with bugs listed with most recent first. It looks like there are many bugs in that HUD code! https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hud/+bugs?orderby=-id&start=0 | 06:56 |
| Fevix | The one running the dd? | 06:56 |
| Sam___ | Maybe I can keep it and send it via pastebin? | 06:56 |
| TJ- | Fevix: Live Boot has nothing to do with it - Hybrid boot means the installer will start. If you want a Live env for windows you need the Preboot Execution images | 06:57 |
| TJ- | Sam___: No, it's a special file containing the binary image of the state of the memory when the process crashes, and once uploaded can be analysed to identify exactly where the fault occurred | 06:58 |
| Fevix | TJ-, could that file be sent over, say, dropbox or some other filesharing site? | 06:59 |
| Fevix | ^Talking about Sam___'s issue | 06:59 |
| TJ- | Sam___: many of the HUD crash bug reports are private so you won't be able to see them, although I can (as a bug supervisor). They contain potentially private data is why. However, there are *hundreds* of similar reports so I think you're not alone and there is a major issue with the unity/hud code | 06:59 |
| Sam___ | Oh ok, so I just wait for a bug fix? | 07:00 |
| TJ- | Sam___: Don't worry about submitting your crash dump, there are so many uploaded already! I think the only thing I can recommend for now is ...install a more reliable Desktop Environment, e.g. KDE. If you want to try that, so "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop". Once it's installed, if you restart the PC you'll have an option at log-in to choose the desktop session type you want. | 07:01 |
| Sam___ | Sure, I will do that.. Thanks a lot for your help today... :) | 07:03 |
| Sam___ | I am installing kubuntu btw.. | 07:03 |

| Haris | hello all | 07:32 |
| Haris | when I login, its saying -> 154 packages can be updated.\n 88 updates are security updates. <- how do I update these packages without using do-release-upgrade. I'm root on this box | 07:32 |
| Ben64 | Haris: you shouldn't be running stuff as root, "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 07:33 |
| Haris | I see | 07:34 |
| Haris | is there a difference between do-release-upgrade and dist-upgrade | 07:34 |
| Haris | also, is it possible to choose which packages are updated | 07:34 |
| Ben64 | huge difference. do-release-upgrade goes to a new version of ubuntu. dist-upgrade upgrades packages | 07:34 |
| ubuntu616 | do-release is a release upgrade dist-upgrade is a in release upgrade | 07:35 |
| HoloIRCUser2 | Hello? | 07:35 |

| JustinCase | hello I need to get internet access in a bridged network configuration. I did what is explained here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkConnectionBridge but what puzzles me is that I need to find out wich the default gateway is when it has already been configured in network interfaces could someone explain why and whether the default gateway is not the same? | 07:39 |
| HoloIRCUser2 | Can anyone see my message? | 07:40 |
| === HoloIRCUser2 is now known as Dagas | ||
| TJ- | JustinCase: I think those instructions are a bit confusing. The default gateway is the same in most cases, it just needs setting on the bridge interface itself | 07:41 |
| TJ- | !ask | Dagas | 07:41 |
| ubottu | Dagas: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 07:41 |
| Ivanhoe | Hello everybody | 07:42 |
| Dagas | Does anyone know if there is a way to get Ubuntu CD or DVD? I have spotty Internet where I live and can't seem to download the 1G files... says it will take like 4 days... | 07:43 |
| hobbet1 | HoloIRCUser2 ask your questionand if somebody knows they will answer | 07:43 |
| TJ- | Dagas: there used to be a program but that ended a long time ago; I wonder if your country's LoCo team might operate such a thing though | 07:43 |
| TJ- | Dagas: Apparently you can also buy them from here: http://shop.canonical.com/index.php?cPath=17 | 07:45 |
| Dagas | I live in Northern California USA. What is "LoCo"? | 07:45 |
| TJ- | Dagas: Local Community teams. see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/ | 07:46 |
| Dagas | Thank you TJ. That helps a ton! I will have to try it that way. | 07:48 |
| Dagas | Anyone know of an application that does the same thing as adobe's Audition application for Ubuntu? I'm tired of paying for monthly "application usage fee" that adobe is now charging for all their apps. | 07:50 |
| TJ- | Dagas: maybe this will help? http://www.techshout.com/alternatives/2013/25/adobe-audition-alternative/ | 07:51 |
| hobbet1 | damnit TJ you are fast lol | 07:52 |
| TJ- | Dagas: Thinking of the installation... you download the minimal installer ISO image and then install packages as needed over the network, that might avoid the single large download issue | 07:53 |
| ktwo | hi, regular ssh working, but putty not (just doesnt connect) what could be the reason? | 07:53 |
| ktwo | or is there maybe a putty-like frontend for regular ssh command? | 07:53 |
| TJ- | Dagas: from minimal, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 07:53 |
| JustinCase | TJ- okay, now I got the bridge working but I then have no access to the internet that's why I am still thinking there is something missing... this is the ip route list output: default via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0 proto static | 07:56 |
| JustinCase | 169.254.0.0/16 dev br0 scope link metric 1000 | 07:56 |
| JustinCase | 192.168.1.0/24 dev br0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.50 | 07:56 |
| JustinCase | 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.50 metric 1 | 07:56 |
| mgor | JustinCase, try removing the IP address on eth0 and just keep it on br0 | 07:57 |
| TJ- | JustinCase: assuming you've added eth0 to br0, then "sudo ip route del 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0" then "sudo ip add default dev br0 via 192.168.1.1" (if your gateway is 192.168.1.1) | 07:58 |
| JustinCase | mgor no eth0 config in my /etc/network/interfaces file | 07:58 |
| TJ- | JustinCase: Typo! correction: "sudo ip route add default dev br0 via 192.168.1.1" (if your gateway is 192.168.1.1) | 07:59 |
| Dagas | TJ - thank you for the information. I will see what I can do about it. You all have been an awesome help! I really do appreciate it. | 08:00 |

| Homely_Girl | Greetings all, I'm using Ubuntu 1404 'n am having trouble installing updates. I briefly saw an error about repositries? | 09:43 |
| Ben64 | try "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and pastebin any errors | 09:44 |
| Homely_Girl | Thanks Ben64 | 09:46 |
| leonic | does midori work whit pepper flash | 09:47 |
| Homely_Girl | Ben64, sudo apt-get update is doing somming...keep fingers crossed | 09:47 |
| Homely_Girl | Ben64, Curious, how come the update worked using apt-get 'n not in software updater? | 09:53 |
| Ben64 | did it actually work | 09:53 |
| Ben64 | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is the real upgrade, update just updates the cache | 09:54 |
| Homely_Girl | It's installing stuff, so I'm guessing so. | 09:54 |
| kc9iid | <Homely_Girl> i often have the same problems with Ubuntu 14.04. Don't know why, but am watching closely to hopefully find out. | 09:55 |
| UK-1020 | Hi at screensaver lockscreen on 14.04 LTS It was not responding to KB input only cap lock was doing anything. I could switch to prompt with ctrl-alt-F1 and back to GUI with ctrl-alt-F7 but didnt know what to type to restart the login without rebooting! how can I ecover it without rebootin if it happens again ?! | 09:56 |
| Denlud | I have a question, i hope somebody could help me. | 09:56 |
| Homely_Girl | kc9iid, And I'll never find out :( I only ever pop on here when in need! lol | 09:56 |
| Homely_Girl | kc9iid, I'm just not THAT geeky. lol | 09:57 |
| Denlud | The standard kernel from 14.04 isnt working good. | 09:57 |
| kc9iid | Homely_Girl. me too LOL :) | 09:57 |
| Denlud | So i installed an other Kernel. | 09:57 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: how is it not working good | 09:58 |
| Denlud | Now everything is working fine, but i want to delete the old Kernel. And make sure that the system updates the new Kernel | 09:58 |
| AvatarA | UK-1020, I think sudo service lightdm restart should do the trick | 09:58 |
| Homely_Girl | Ben64, Okay brains, what was the second one? :) | 09:58 |
| Denlud | It doesnt show text or buttons. | 09:58 |
| Ben64 | Homely_Girl: sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 09:59 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: kernel doesn't control text or buttons | 09:59 |
| Homely_Girl | Thanks | 09:59 |
| cfhowlett | UK-1020, xscreensaver and lightlocker are known to conflict. | 09:59 |
| Denlud | I have a Intel i5-5200. | 09:59 |
| Denlud | And with the old Kernel the HD5500 isnt working.... | 09:59 |
| Denlud | So i cant see anything with the old... | 10:00 |
| UK-1020 | Thanks AvatarA I'll give that a try if it happens again :) | 10:00 |
| kc9iid | Homely_Girl, I sometimes find that if I get an error doing updates in terminal or updater, if I wait a few minutes, then try again it works fine. don't know why. good luck. | 10:01 |
| AvatarA | but it will close everything you have open in your GUI session from what I remember | 10:01 |
| Denlud | Is it possible to make the updater clear, that i want to change my kernel?! | 10:01 |
| Homely_Girl | kc9iid, trusty old apt-get is working it seems! I love that I can sound geekyish by knowing about apt-get installing! lol Is all I know! | 10:02 |
| Denlud | Cause the old Kernel isnt working at all. | 10:02 |
| Ben64 | if you installed the new kernel manually, then you have to do all the work updating it manually as well | 10:02 |
| UK-1020 | was hoping to avoid that but its still better than rebooting :) | 10:02 |
| Ben64 | Homely_Girl: come here with any errors and we can help you out | 10:02 |
| Denlud | Is there a way to make it autocratically? | 10:03 |
| Ben64 | nope | 10:03 |
| Denlud | And everytime i want to update my system this goddamn updater installs the new version of the old Kernel. | 10:04 |
| bekks | Denlud: Thats what "manually" means... | 10:04 |
| UK-1020 | cf its just the standad build in one I diddnt add any in | 10:04 |
| kc9iid | Homely_Girl, me too. I'm relatively new to Linux, Ubuntu and am learning too. I enjoy learning very much. | 10:04 |
| Denlud | And the system crashes again.... | 10:04 |
| Denlud | That more than annoying | 10:04 |
| ikonia | Denlud: and we don't need to hear a commentary | 10:04 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: you can either use the ubuntu kernel and get updates, or you can do it yourself | 10:05 |
| Homely_Girl | kc9iid, All u need to know is you made the best choice ever!! :D | 10:05 |
| ikonia | Denlud: you have a choice a.) use the ubuntu packages and let the package manager deal with it automatically b.) do it yourself manually outside the ubuntu package manager | 10:05 |
| Homely_Girl | Ben64, Hi 5 my plugins have updated, can watch youtube now, thanks!! :D | 10:05 |
| Denlud | Thats the problem, i dont have the choice a. | 10:05 |
| TJ- | Denlud: It might be better to identify and get fixed whatever bug is causing the crash. | 10:05 |
| ikonia | Denlud: why do you not have choice a ? | 10:05 |
| Ben64 | Homely_Girl: you're welcome | 10:05 |
| TJ- | Denlud: what kernel have you installed, and from where? | 10:05 |

| Homely_Girl | Thanks for the loan of your sheer brilliance, ciao! :D | 10:06 |
| ikonia | Denlud: define system isn't working with it | 10:06 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: you do actually, your problem is less of a kernel problem and more of a graphics problem | 10:06 |
| Denlud | The System doesnt show Buttons or text. The Suspend isnt working, too. | 10:06 |
| Denlud | When i want to wake up my System after Suspend i cant see anything. | 10:07 |

| Cerealkill3r | The problem i have is,i get a login loop every time i enter my correct password,this could be because i tried to change my name with usermod -l ,but i have changed it back | 10:08 |
| TJ- | !mainline | Denlud did you install v4.0.7 from the kernel team PPA archive? | 10:08 |
| ubottu | Denlud did you install v4.0.7 from the kernel team PPA archive?: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds | 10:08 |
| Cerealkill3r | Or because of a unfinished software update | 10:08 |
| Denlud | Yes i installed the Kernel from kernel.ubuntu.com/mainline/... | 10:09 |
| TJ- | Cerealkill3r: not just cereals you kill, is it? :) | 10:09 |
| Cerealkill3r | TJ-, that's right | 10:09 |
| TJ- | Denlud: those should appear first in the grub menu and the top one should boot by default | 10:09 |
| TJ- | Cerealkill3r: Are you able to log-in from a terminal, without GUI? Ctrl+Alt+F1 from the login screen? | 10:10 |
| Cerealkill3r | yes,of course | 10:10 |

| === Yukkii is now known as mahou-imouto | ||

| Cerealkill3r | i can do that,and also i'm logged in as an guest on my machine right now | 10:11 |
| Denlud | Maybe if i remove the old? | 10:11 |
| EriC^^ | Denlud: if you remove linux-image-generic i think it won't install | 10:11 |
| EriC^^ | you might have to remove the old too | 10:12 |
| TJ- | Denlud: you could pin the kernel version in the package-manager, but that's not something I'd recommend. I'd suggest fixing the boot menu ordering to do what you want, and reporting a bug against the archive kernels | 10:12 |
| === Yukkii is now known as Yukkino | ||
| EriC^^ | Denlud: you can also type man apt_preferences and check out how to hold packages from being updated | 10:12 |
| Denlud | The Problem is already reported. | 10:12 |
| Ben64 | or you can just update the graphics, or you could try the hwe | 10:13 |
| Ben64 | or you can continue manually updating the kernel | 10:13 |
| TJ- | Cerealkill3r: OK ... when you're logged in like that check who owns the file "ls -l $HOME/.Xauthority" - it should be your current user | 10:13 |
| Denlud | Many people having my problem at the moment. | 10:13 |
| Cerealkill3r | just a sec | 10:13 |
| Denlud | how can i delete complete the old Kernel? | 10:15 |
| Denlud | with headers etc.? | 10:15 |
| Ben64 | remove the packages, if ye be brave or fool enough | 10:15 |
| Denlud | sudo apt-get --purge remove....... | 10:15 |
| Cerealkill3r | i think i have deleted the file | 10:16 |
| Denlud | Sry, i dont know the paket names :D | 10:16 |
| Cerealkill3r | it's giving me the message that there is no file .Xauthority there | 10:16 |
| TJ- | Denlud: I'm puzzled as to why you 4.0.7 kernel is not the default, because I build and test a lot of recent kernels and they're always sorted so most recent kernel is at top of GRUB's menu | 10:16 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: look in dpkg or software center or synaptic for that | 10:16 |
| Denlud | TJ, i customized the grub menu a time ago. | 10:17 |
| TJ- | Denlud: maybe you're edited "/etc/default/grub" at some point and changed the "GRUB_DEFAULT=0" line? If you "pastebinit /boot/grub/grub.cfg" we can maybe sort this out | 10:17 |
| TJ- | Denlud: That's probably the issue then | 10:17 |
| Denlud | I think i could fix that. | 10:18 |
| Cerealkill3r | forgot to mention,i'm running 15.04 | 10:18 |
| TJ- | Denlud: "update-grub" runs the script "/etc/grub.d/10_linux" which builds the menu | 10:18 |
| Denlud | And how can i remove the old kernel complete, tj? After that i can avoid, that the updater updates the old Kernel. | 10:19 |
| Denlud | Because i have a slow internet connection :( | 10:19 |
| Ben64 | i just told you... | 10:20 |
| Denlud | Yes, but i dont understood that | 10:20 |
| Denlud | Dont know how to search for paketes with synaptic | 10:20 |
| Ben64 | then maybe you shouldn't be messing with kernel stuff and trying to remove them and editing grub and all that stuff | 10:20 |
| Denlud | And what should i do then? Go to windows? | 10:21 |
| Denlud | Cause the old Kernel isnt working. | 10:21 |
| Ben64 | you keep saying that then ignoring everything else | 10:21 |
| Denlud | Ok, i will start the old kernel now with my other laptop. | 10:22 |
| Denlud | And what should i do now? | 10:22 |
| dtraveler | Hi, I am facing some issues with the internet upload speed on ubuntu. It is working fine on windows and I am able to open all websites but not on ubuntu. | 10:23 |
| dtraveler | Also, it is same with my Nexus5 android phone. I am accessing internet via a belkin router. Can someone help? what could be the issue? | 10:23 |
| Ben64 | seems like you're set on what you're going to do, doesn't matter what i say | 10:23 |
| Denlud | No...... I started with the old Kernel a minute ago. | 10:24 |
| dtraveler | and as per my ISP, they said, instead of getting a public ip directly they are now giving us a private which will be resolve to public IP at their end. | 10:24 |
| Cerealkill3r | dtraveler, did you check the drivers from additional drivers? | 10:24 |
| Denlud | The graphical interface isnt working, but i have the tty1 console here. | 10:24 |
| Denlud | What should i do now? | 10:24 |
| dtraveler | Cerealkill3r: Nope. | 10:25 |
| dtraveler | Thanks for reply btw | 10:25 |
| Cerealkill3r | try that | 10:25 |
| Cerealkill3r | :) np | 10:25 |
| Cerealkill3r | can anyone tell me how to create the .Xauthority file please? :) | 10:25 |
| Ben64 | should be created automatically | 10:25 |
| Denlud | ... | 10:26 |
| Cerealkill3r | i am in a situation where i can't login and i'm in a loop | 10:26 |
| EriC^^ | Cerealkill3r: try logging in using the guest account, if it doesn't work you have another issue | 10:26 |
| Cerealkill3r | i am logged in as the guest account | 10:26 |
| Cerealkill3r | could you help me troubleshoot it? | 10:26 |
| Ben64 | Cerealkill3r: what was the output of ls -l ~/.Xauthority from your user | 10:26 |
| Cerealkill3r | just a second | 10:26 |
| Denlud | I think i wont get a answer. | 10:27 |
| Denlud | I will boot with the new kernel again. | 10:27 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: scroll up to when i gave you a bunch of options | 10:28 |
| Cerealkill3r | Ben64, it gives me a big list | 10:28 |
| Cerealkill3r | but also,at the top it says i don't have an .Xauthority file | 10:28 |
| Ben64 | Cerealkill3r: what gives you a big list | 10:28 |
| Cerealkill3r | ls -l ~/.Xauthority | 10:29 |
| Ben64 | Cerealkill3r: it should give you exactly one line of output | 10:29 |
| EriC^^ | Cerealkill3r: type stat -c %u /home/<your user>/.Xauthority | 10:29 |
| TJ- | Denlud: To pin a package so it won't upgrade see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 10:29 |
| k1l_ | Cerealkill3r: change to the tty1 )ctrl +alt+f1) login to you user. then do a "ls -al" see what owner is of that file. then come back on xserver (ctrl+alt+f7) from the guest and report here | 10:29 |
| Denlud | Ok, Ben64. I should try to fix the graphical problems. | 10:30 |
| Cerealkill3r | cannot stat no such file or directory... | 10:30 |
| TJ- | Cerealkill3r: OK, if the file isn't there that might be because when you changed the user name and then changed it back, you've somehow also affected user ID number and the $HOME or some of its contents now have varying UIDs | 10:31 |
| Denlud | The suspend is a problem, too. I tried to debug the suspend. | 10:31 |
| TJ- | Cerealkill3r: which also explains why the GUI can't log you in even though you've changed the username back to what it was. | 10:31 |
| Cerealkill3r | TJ-, i think that might be the problem too | 10:31 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: what kernel version is the 'old' one? | 10:31 |
| TJ- | Cerealkill3r: are you logged in at the terminal now with the correct username? | 10:32 |
| Denlud | i debugged it like its described here: http://www.ubuntu-forum.de/index.php?page=ExternalLink&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwiki.ubuntuusers.de%2Fpm-utils | 10:32 |
| === underyx is now known as underyx|off | ||
| Cerealkill3r | i'm logged in on tty1 with my username | 10:32 |
| Cerealkill3r | k1l_, i tried,it gives me a big list,most of them being root,and i think root is the owner of the home folder too | 10:33 |
| Denlud | And this is the cat from dmesg_hash_matches.txt: | 10:33 |
| Denlud | [ 6.017318] hash matches /build/buildd/linux-3.19.0/drivers/base/power/main.c:814 | 10:33 |
| Denlud | [ 6.017327] usb usb1-port1: hash matches | 10:33 |
| Denlud | [ 6.017358] tty tty10: hash matches | 10:33 |
| Denlud | [ 6.017364] net lo: hash matches | 10:33 |
| TJ- | Cerealkill3r: OK, you can set the correct owner with: "chown -R $USER $HOME" ... if you get errors that'll point to files that will need manually correcting with "sudo" since current user won't have rights to them | 10:33 |
| k1l_ | Cerealkill3r: do a "ls -al" there and please tell us what the owner is. its shown as "root:root" or "user:user" in the line in front of ".Xauthority" | 10:33 |
| Denlud | And what should i do now? | 10:33 |
| k1l_ | Cerealkill3r: if you have " a lot of root owns the stuff" that is a huge problem | 10:34 |
| Cerealkill3r | k1l_, yes,i have a lot of that,the problem is that i have no .Xauthority file | 10:34 |
| Cerealkill3r | so,it doesn't show the owner of it | 10:34 |
| Denlud | The old Kernel is...ufff...i think 3.16 | 10:34 |
| EriC^^ | Cerealkill3r: probably because it can't be created cause root owns your home dir | 10:35 |
| Cerealkill3r | i'll try to chown see what happens | 10:35 |
| Cerealkill3r | might be | 10:35 |
| EriC^^ | Cerealkill3r: type ls -ld /home/<your user> | 10:35 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: you can get 3.19 with vivid hwe | 10:35 |
| k1l_ | Cerealkill3r: you messed your system with using sudo and the root account where its not meant to be used. so the user cant create that file now. see TJ- s solution | 10:35 |
| EriC^^ | Cerealkill3r: yeah, try sudo chown -R <your user>: /home/<your user> | 10:35 |
| TJ- | Cerealkill3r: if you have "root:root" you'll need to use sudo to modify things: "sudo chmod -R $USER $HOME" | 10:35 |
| EriC^^ | TJ-: ^ typo chmod | 10:36 |
| * TJ- is far too tired! | 10:36 | |
| TJ- | Cerealkill3r: if you have "root:root" you'll need to use sudo to modify things: "sudo chown -R $USER $HOME" | 10:36 |
| Denlud | With 3.19 the issue with the suspend remains | 10:37 |
| EriC^^ | Cerealkill3r: also add a ":" after your username so it changes the group too | 10:37 |
| Denlud | i already tried that. | 10:37 |
| Cerealkill3r | ok i'll try that now | 10:37 |
| Denlud | With Kernel v.4+ it fixed. | 10:37 |
| TJ- | EriC^^: Got my focus on a mini-PCIe SSD that is refusing to register on the PCI bus | 10:37 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: looks like you get to update your kernel manually then | 10:37 |
| Johnny_Linux | brute force that ssd | 10:38 |
| Denlud | Yeah and thats the reason why i asked how i can remove ALL paketes from the old kernel. | 10:38 |
| Denlud | To avoid the updates. | 10:39 |
| TJ- | Johnny_Linux: I'm in conversation with the supertalent engineers over it... looks like it may not be fully PCI-SIG compliant | 10:39 |
| Ben64 | Denlud: which i answered already | 10:39 |
| Johnny_Linux | yeah | 10:39 |
| Denlud | Yes, but could u be a little more specific? | 10:39 |
| Denlud | I dont understood how i can search for that. | 10:39 |
| Ben64 | i'll say it again because you don't seem to listen the first time. use dpkg -l or synaptic or the software center or apt to get the list of packages you have, then remove them | 10:40 |
| Cerealkill3r | ok ,now i did | 10:40 |
| Cerealkill3r | let me reboot and i'll be back | 10:40 |
| Denlud | Ok i have the list. | 10:42 |
| Denlud | I remove all linux-images with 3* | 10:42 |
| Denlud | and all headers, is there anything else to remove? | 10:42 |
| Ben64 | good luck | 10:42 |
| Johnny_Linux | lol | 10:42 |
| bekks | Denlud: Whats the actual issue in having a kernel installed which will not display your graphics correctly? | 10:43 |
| TJ- | Nothing like taking a hammer to crack a nut... personally I'd just edit the grub.cfg! | 10:43 |
| bekks | I read the backlog, but thats still unclear. | 10:43 |
| Johnny_Linux | exactly tj | 10:43 |
| TJ- | bekks: because there's also a customised grub.cfg which defaults to booting the 'bad' distro kernel, instead of the 'good' manually installed v4.0.7 ... which in a default GRUB config would appear first and be the default | 10:44 |
| Ben64 | bekks: got an intel cpu with integrated gpu, it doesn't work well apparently on 3.x kernels, so he installed mainline kernel and edited grub so that it doesn't boot the newest one | 10:44 |
| bekks | TJ-: Ah, so the issue is a messed up grub.cfg - and this is a XY problem? :) | 10:44 |
| Denlud | TJ i already fixed the Problem with grub. | 10:45 |
| Ben64 | it seems like it could be fixed with xorg-edgers or something too | 10:45 |
| Ben64 | although i don't really use intel, so i'm not sure on that | 10:45 |
| TJ- | Denlud: so now all you need do is pin the current distro kernel and headers so it won't upgrade | 10:45 |
| TJ- | Denlud: did you try the HardWare Enablement packages for LTS? | 10:46 |
| Denlud | Yes. | 10:46 |
| Denlud | should i pin the image-extra pakets too? | 10:46 |
| Denlud | And thats all? Ok great. | 10:47 |
| Denlud | Mh, i tried the additional drivers. But it doesnt worked. | 10:47 |
| TJ- | I'm find the v4.x kernels more markedly more responsive than previous versions | 10:48 |
| Denlud | Ben64 i tried a new experimental xorg version. The graphical interface was fixed with it. | 10:48 |
| Denlud | But the suspend wasnt working with it too. | 10:49 |

| cerealkill3r | my screen keeps flickering | 11:11 |
| daftykins | those don't seem related. | 11:11 |
| cerealkill3r | i recieve "the system is running on low graphics mode" | 11:12 |
| daftykins | so it *does* boot? :) | 11:13 |
| UK-1020 | daftykins was those don't seem related aimed at me ? | 11:13 |

| cerealkill3r | i tried to fix a login loop | 11:14 |
| UK-1020 | ok thanks was confused for a sec :) | 11:14 |
| cerealkill3r | and now i'm stuck with this afther chmod-ing $USER and $HOME | 11:14 |
| cerealkill3r | and i have absolutely no ideea what to do | 11:14 |
| daftykins | cerealkill3r: start from the beginning, you've already stated like 3 different issues | 11:15 |
| daftykins | 1) have you been messing with graphics drivers? | 11:15 |
| cerealkill3r | no | 11:15 |
| daftykins | so what led to your current low graphics mode situation? | 11:15 |
| cerealkill3r | as i said | 11:15 |
| cerealkill3r | i have run a chown command on my $home and $user | 11:16 |

| daftykins | chmod'ing wouldn't have caused that | 11:16 |
| cerealkill3r | trying to solve another problem | 11:16 |
| cerealkill3r | okay | 11:16 |
| Odd_Bloke | It happens when I log in to my user with an ecryptfs home directory. | 11:16 |
| cerealkill3r | what could have caused it? | 11:16 |
| cerealkill3r | cause i have absolutely no ideea what to do right now | 11:16 |
| Odd_Bloke | (It started after I rebooted to the latest vivid kernel, but I also see it on the previous kernel as well) | 11:16 |
| daftykins | cerealkill3r: what version is this? | 11:16 |
| cerealkill3r | 15.04 | 11:16 |
| daftykins | cerealkill3r: do you get the login screen before you pick your user? | 11:17 |
| cerealkill3r | it's hard to explain,i don't get to pick my user | 11:17 |
| cerealkill3r | it shows me the ubunu logo and after that flickering text | 11:18 |
| daftykins | do you have it on auto login? | 11:18 |
| daftykins | sounds like a mess | 11:18 |
| cerealkill3r | it should've been | 11:18 |
| cerealkill3r | yeah,i think i should re-install | 11:18 |
| cerealkill3r | it's a hell of a mess | 11:18 |
| daftykins | if you haven't got much config or data to backup, it'd be easier than trying to get to the root of the problem | 11:18 |
| daftykins | i mean you could boot recovery and reinstall a bunch of packages, but yeah... life is short. | 11:19 |
| cerealkill3r | yeah,i'm worried about those a bit | 11:19 |
| daftykins | well just boot a live session and backup | 11:19 |
| cerealkill3r | good ideea | 11:19 |
| cerealkill3r | this all started by trying to change my username lol | 11:20 |
| daftykins | oh well that makes more sense | 11:20 |
| cerealkill3r | probably will spend a good ammount configuring it but ,thanks for your reply | 11:21 |

| cerealkill3r | have a nice day. | 11:22 |
| daftykins | Guest36630: missing what? there's nothing in /opt as standard (at least on a 14.04 server install here) | 11:23 |
| Guest36630 | daftykins, I need to compile something and the script is pointing to /opt/toolchain/etc/etc/etc | 11:24 |
| Guest36630 | daftykins, where would apt-get install things to then? | 11:26 |
| daftykins | what specifically... | 11:26 |
| daftykins | where they go depends on the package :P | 11:26 |
| Guest36630 | gcc-4.7-arm-linux-gnueabi | 11:27 |
| Guest36630 | from everything I can see, it installs into /opt/toolchain/ | 11:27 |
| daftykins | well if you installed the package, either it failed or it's elsewhere | 11:29 |
| daftykins | i think you can open them to see where it puts things | 11:29 |
| Guest36630 | no errors were spat out | 11:30 |
| EriC^^ | Guest36630: what's the name of the file it's looking for? | 11:31 |
| Guest36630 | EriC^^, /opt/toolchains/arm-eabi-4.7/bin/arm-eabi-gcc | 11:31 |
| TJ- | Guest36630: That package installs to "/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-*-4.7" To check use "dpkg -L gcc-4.7-arm-linux-gnueabi" | 11:31 |
| EriC^^ | Guest36630: if the package you're trying to install can be installed in apt-get use that instead | 11:32 |
| ogra_ | Guest36630, are you sure you want gnueabi and not gnueabihf ? also proper makefiles for arm stuff usually support the CROSS_COMPILE env var to point to the toolchain | 11:32 |
| dreamcat4 | hi. i'm looking for a decent timer app that works in unity: i've tried 'gnome-clocks' but when the timer expires, it wreaks havoc. also other ones aren't good or don't seem to have installers. the program i'm looking to replace is 'minuteur' on mac os x | 11:33 |
| dreamcat4 | basically i need an app that will countdown X minutes, then interrupt the unity window manager / show topmost (background --> foreground) | 11:33 |

| auronandace | dan-f: if it is a ubuntu issue this channel could help | 13:15 |
| dan-f | auronandace: thanks. I'm not sure whether or not it's an Ubuntu issue. Quickly: I'm trying to dual boot my 2010 MacBook Pro w/ Ubuntu and OS X. I installed rEFInd, provisioned free space, and told Ubuntu to "install alongside os x" (an install option). It seemed to wipe out my rEFInd install with GRUB. Is this normal/OK? | 13:17 |

| dan-f | daftykins: I've gotten it installed. I'm just confused by the fact that it wiped out rEFInd with GRUB. Is that normal? Do people use either GRUB or rEFInd, or both together? | 13:21 |

| kapcom01 | My laptop essentially freezes very often with the hard disk at 100%. The only way to unfreeze it it to quickly hit ctr+alt+f1 and killall firefox. I am pretty sure that the problem is flash. If I am too fast and close a tab that uses flash (instead of killing firefox) it will unfreeze. What can I do? It is really anoying. | 13:53 |
| basil2x | merpnderp, you could just try it. Never seen a *buntu that wouldn't run in a vm | 13:54 |
| merpnderp | basil2x: just wondering if 64 bit versus 32 would be better. And since I'm at work it will take 8 hours to download the iso :/ | 13:54 |

| merpnderp | pbx: I tried 14.04 a while back and couldn't get VB to create an image. My download's hash matched, but VB just choked. So I'm trying again. | 13:59 |
| davidxt | I have a question regarding the color scheme for applications like whiptail and dialog. On Ubuntu, it is this vibrant purple color, as in this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/95lEDnk.png However on nearly every other system it is a blue background.. I can't seem to find where I can change this color as it is not specified in the whiptail command | 13:59 |
| daftykins | create? why would you be creating an image with VB? | 13:59 |
| pbx | yeah, merpnderp, outline what your process is and what you're trying to achieve | 14:00 |
| knightyyy | so my last question didn't receive any answer,so let's rephrase it.how can I see what application is not letting plasma to shut down the computer | 14:11 |

| teward | wernerbu: note I've reached out to the people at Canonical who manage the mirrors to take a peek, if it's something they can fix they'll probably do so, or investigate further, in the interim i'd suggest switching to a different mirror if you can | 14:19 |
| merpnderp | pbx: sorry, had to help someone with a sql report. I'm trying to download ubuntu so that I can create a virtualbox image from it, and then use it as a real dev env on my windows "workstation". | 14:19 |
| teward | wernerbu: (I don't have a list of the EC2 mirrors here, though, I apologize) | 14:19 |

| wernerbu | teward: thanks I will use de | 14:24 |
| wernerbu | thank you for escalating it | 14:24 |
| pbx | merpnderp, my best advice is try again and if you get an error, come here with the exact text of the error message and the URL of the image you downloaded and the version of virtualbox you're using | 14:24 |
| wernerbu | This is a vanilla trusty server, so not sure whats going on :) | 14:24 |
| merpnderp | pbx: looks like no one is streaming their soaps yet. Only 1 hour 28 minutes left :) | 14:25 |
| teward | wernerbu: it looks like the issue might be with the AWS architecture that mirror is on, though, or a routing issue, but ultimately something Amazon AWS has to poke at to fix | 14:26 |
| teward | wernerbu: but the DE mirror should help a bit | 14:26 |

| sam69 | My network printer changed its ip address. now I cannot print anything on ubuntu 14.04 so how do I fix it? | 14:59 |
| teward | sam69: edit the printer location settings in Ubuntu 14.04 via Properties to point to the new IP | 15:00 |
| baizon | sam69: change the ip? or "reinstall" | 15:00 |
| teward | sam69: also, set your netowrk printer's IP to be static | 15:00 |
| teward | solves the problem going forward | 15:00 |
| daftykins | and an IP outside of the DHCP pool ^ | 15:00 |
| sam69 | teward: How do I make it static? from printer or ubuntu? | 15:01 |
| daftykins | printer. | 15:01 |
| teward | sam69: from the printer, but you need to set it outside the 'dynamic assignment' set of your router/network/DHCP server | 15:01 |
| sam69 | teward: I think it changed because I changed my internet provider and router/modem. | 15:02 |
| teward | sam69: likely, but you still need to set it 'static' going forward. | 15:03 |
| sam69 | teward: can you please tell me where exactly change the ip? I'm in printer properties and I can't find any ip there? | 15:04 |
| teward | sam69: no i can't, each printer is different (refer to the manual for your printer) | 15:04 |
| sam69 | teward: I mean on ubuntu not the static thing just need to update the ip of printer on my ubuntu first | 15:05 |
| TJ- | sam69: In the CUPS control panel ( http://localhost:631 ), Administration > Manage Printers > select printer | 15:05 |
| TJ- | sam69: Then in the right-most "Administration" drop-down select Modify Printer | 15:06 |

| FiddlerTst | ... is that even possible? | 15:21 |
| bekks | FiddlerTst: Why wouldnt it? | 15:21 |
| drmagoo | FiddlerTst: that depends on the contacts on the fibre | 15:21 |
| bekks | drmagoo: It is possible in general. | 15:21 |
| FiddlerTst | I see how to make a crossover with utp cable | 15:21 |
| FiddlerTst | but with an sfp+? (first time handling fiber...) | 15:22 |
| drmagoo | bekks: =) | 15:22 |
| jayo | k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11836257/ | 15:22 |
| bekks | FiddlerTst: SFP+ doesnt tell you anything about the cabling connector. | 15:22 |
| jmspeex | Got another profiler link for FF41 being slow: http://people.mozilla.org/~bgirard/cleopatra/#report=8e414bc2e21ee54224c88a42ed8b63df23dabdae | 15:22 |
| bekks | FiddlerTst: SFP+ is the definition of the contact of GBIC to the interface board. | 15:22 |
| jmspeex | oops | 15:22 |
| drmagoo | FiddlerTst: can you take a photo of the connector and upload it to imgur.com ? | 15:22 |
| k1l | jayo: you need to give it the name of the ppa like its mentioned there. | 15:23 |
| FiddlerTst | sure | 15:23 |
| FiddlerTst | better yet, directly from dell http://snpi.dell.com/snp/images/products/mlrg/332-1664.jpg | 15:25 |

| Biba | so I'm running a distribution that doesn't have dpkg. how do I install a deb file in terminal without dpkg? | 15:26 |
| bekks | Biba: Ask the support of your distro then. | 15:26 |
| Biba | bekks: its small distribution they don't have such page | 15:26 |
| bekks | Biba: And we dont support it in here. | 15:27 |
| jayo | k1l: tried 'sudo ppa-purge bumblebee' ...'updating package lists' is takin pretty darn long | 15:27 |
| drmagoo | FiddlerTst: FiddlerTst: are the servers and cards also from dell? | 15:27 |
| FiddlerTst | yes | 15:27 |
| Biba | ok then let me rephrase my question in ubuntu 14.04 . I want to install a deb file in terminal without using dpkg. is there any way to do that? | 15:28 |
| bekks | Biba: You dont have Ubuntu. | 15:28 |
| bekks | Biba: Please ask the support of your distro or install Ubuntu. | 15:28 |
| === fredric is now known as Anonymous123 | ||
| === Anonymous123 is now known as Anonymous124 | ||
| Biba | bekks actually I'm typing in ubuntu 14.04 tahr | 15:29 |
| k1l | Biba: since you dont use ubuntu that is not a real problem. if your distro doesnt offer support then ask in ##linux for generic help | 15:29 |
| Pici | Biba: why don't you have dpkg then? | 15:29 |
| bekks | Biba: But your question is not about Ubuntu. | 15:29 |
| FiddlerTst | network card is QLogic 57810 Dual Port 10Gb Direct Attach/SFP+ Low Profile Network Adapter | 15:29 |
| bekks | FiddlerTst: Direct attach? Then you have preconfigured cabling, which will work. | 15:29 |
| jayo | k1l: yeah..not able to remove it..uncheck it? | 15:30 |
| drmagoo | FiddlerTst: ok. connect the cables again. And then check both ports on each server with ethtool to see if you get link | 15:30 |
| k1l | jayo: yes | 15:30 |
| FiddlerTst | the cable are already connected... | 15:30 |
| jayo | k1l: on it | 15:30 |
| FiddlerTst | this is the second one | 15:30 |
| bekks | FiddlerTst: So you can see a link, physically? | 15:30 |
| bekks | FiddlerTst: Like the LED being lit? | 15:30 |
| FiddlerTst | bekks: yes | 15:30 |
| bekks | FiddlerTst: So cabling isnt your issue. | 15:31 |
| FiddlerTst | bekks: I do | 15:31 |
| FiddlerTst | bekks: thats good to know | 15:31 |
| Biba | bekks: my prove that it is ubuntu http://i.imgur.com/eG63jFV.png | 15:31 |
| FiddlerTst | I probably have to configure something specific in the route or ifconfig, but cant find out what | 15:32 |
| k1l | Biba: but ubuntu got dpkg and a package management. | 15:32 |
| bekks | Biba: Thats a screenshot of this chat. Worthless. | 15:32 |
| jayo | k1l: i have disabled ppa starting with 'disabled on upgrade to utopic' | 15:32 |
| ioria | Biba what's the problem with dpkg ? | 15:32 |
| Biba | guys its a yes no question just say it | 15:32 |
| k1l | jayo: disable that named PPAs form that pastebin. | 15:33 |
| drmagoo | FiddlerTst: if you do a ifconfig, you should have two interfaces that start with p* check both interfaces with ethtool and see which port indicates that they have link | 15:33 |
| Pici | Biba: you need dpkg to install deb files. | 15:33 |
| k1l | Biba: ubuntu got dpkg, so its not an ubuntu issue. done. ask ##linux | 15:33 |
| ioria | !info gdebi | 15:33 |
| ubottu | gdebi (source: gdebi): simple tool to view and install deb files - GNOME GUI. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.5.5+nmu1 (vivid), package size 23 kB, installed size 200 kB | 15:33 |
| jayo | k1l: the last few that were ignored during the update right? | 15:34 |
| Biba | k1l: thats what I want thanks | 15:34 |
| k1l | ioria: that is just frontends to dpkg, iirc | 15:34 |
| ioria | but if think use dpkg too | 15:34 |
| ioria | ^-^ | 15:34 |
| FiddlerTst | drmagoo:if config result http://paste.ubuntu.com/11836311/ | 15:34 |
| k1l | jayo: i dont know what lots of PPAs you have enabled etc. on a upgrade all PPAs get disabled. | 15:34 |
| jayo | k1l: is it cool if i send you a screenshot via imgur? | 15:35 |
| FiddlerTst | drmagoo: second serveur http://paste.ubuntu.com/11836319/ | 15:35 |
| drmagoo | FiddlerTst: try 'ifconfig p2p1 up' on both servers | 15:35 |
| k1l | jayo: just make sure you dont run PPAs, that still link to utopic which is 14.10 while you use vivid which is 15.04 | 15:35 |
| drmagoo | FiddlerTst: and then check the interfaces again with 'ethtool p2p1' and see if it says that you have link | 15:36 |
| jayo | k1l: http://imgur.com/nTXWB4y | 15:36 |
| bekks | FiddlerTst: ethtool may be unreliable. Check dmesg for wether your interface has a link or not, logically. | 15:37 |
| FiddlerTst | drmagoo: still no link with ehttool | 15:37 |
| k1l | jayo: the last checked one still links to 14.04 | 15:37 |
| jayo | k1l: unchecked it...thanks...others are cool right? | 15:38 |
| FiddlerTst | bekks: last result of dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/11836334/ | 15:38 |
| k1l | yes | 15:38 |
| jayo | thanks a ton!.. | 15:39 |
| bekks | FiddlerTst: Pull the cable, what 10s, plug it back in, wait 10s, and run dmesg again. | 15:39 |

| shanee | Hello. Is it bad if virtual memory commit is equal to virtual memory limit? | 16:19 |
| stacks88 | ive got a bunch of VMs created that run ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS 64bit.. I ran sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to upgrade the kernel and rebooted the vms.. they are back online and the kernel upgrades went through.. but i just noticed how, most of my vms upgraded to 3.13.0-57-generic #95-Ubuntu SMP .. yet i have this one vm that is now running 3.16.0-43-generic #58~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP.. why is this vm | 16:23 |
| stacks88 | running a newer version 3.16. and the other ones are 3.13. ? i thought they'd be all the same if they are all ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS trusty.. | 16:23 |
| === harrison is now known as Guest19329 | ||
| === Tsunami1 is now known as Guest15288 | ||
| diddledan | stacks88: it's probably a result of different versions of the installation dvd - the one running 3.16 is probably using an HWE kernel | 16:25 |
| stacks88 | hmm ok.. didnt know that.. So is everything still considered ok then? | 16:26 |
| stacks88 | i.e the one thats on 3.16 can remain that way, and the ones that just upgraded to 3.13.0-57 can remain that way? | 16:26 |
| snow_ru | hi all | 16:29 |
| diddledan | stacks88: yes I believe so - the HWE thing is to allow the now 2 year-old system to be used on more-recent hardware supported in a newer kernel - specifically it is a backport of either 14.10 or 15.04's kernels depending on which HWE you're using | 16:29 |

| ioria | snow_ru, anyway, that shouldn't stop your upgrading | 17:04 |
| OerHeks | snow_ru, on ubuntu extra ppa's are added in /etc/apt/source.list.d/ folder as an own entry | 17:04 |
| jrow | daftykins, They set it up as the sawp area for windows which is dual-booting with ubuntu, but I never use the windows installation. Shame to let an SSD go to waste. | 17:04 |
| OerHeks | !ppa-purge | 17:05 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 17:05 |

| === IAmNotThatGuy is now known as Mohi | ||
| snow_ru | ioria, which one ? | 17:24 |
| voidAr | Hi everyone | 17:24 |
| voidAr | Is there any difference between openjdk-8-jdk and oracle's jdk ? | 17:25 |
| daftykins | yes, one is proprietary and one is open... some software may demand oracle's. | 17:26 |
| ioria | snow_ru, trusty-security and trusty-updates, i think | 17:26 |
| bazhang | !java | voidAr have a read | 17:26 |
| ubottu | voidAr have a read: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 17:26 |
| snow_ru | ioria, btw, when i upgrade | 17:27 |
| snow_ru | The following packages have been kept back: | 17:27 |
| snow_ru | libnspr4-0d | 17:27 |
| snow_ru | what should I do ? | 17:27 |
| voidAr | thanks, i'm installing jdk because I need to develop a simple android app | 17:27 |
| ioria | snow_ru, did you edit the sources.list file ? | 17:27 |
| snow_ru | yes :) | 17:27 |
| voidAr | but I've downloaded oracle's jdk and it's only a zip file | 17:28 |
| voidAr | it doesn't seem to install anything | 17:28 |
| daftykins | voidAr: you're not doing it the correct way | 17:28 |
| ioria | snow_ru, well, not good | 17:28 |
| voidAr | I tried tar zxvf jdk-8u45-linux-x64.tar.gz | 17:28 |
| daftykins | voidAr: , no - just find one of the half a million guides online and follow it :) | 17:29 |
| snow_ru | you just told me to :) | 17:29 |
| snow_ru | comment sth out | 17:29 |
| ioria | snow_ru, http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/Repository/SourcesList, try do add again the repos in your file | 17:29 |
| ioria | sorry... | 17:30 |
| voidAr | daftykins: ok, i used oracle's instructions and it didn't work. I'm gonna check it elsewhere | 17:30 |
| mjuszcza_ | What is the proper way to repoint /usr/bin/ruby to something else? Or to tell apt to never install ruby1.9 packages even if something depends on it? I installed ruby2.1 into /opt and repointed /usr/bin/ruby to it (seems there's no way to do it with alternatives like other operating systems though I could be mistaken), but any time the ruby1.9 package gets updated or installed it repoints symlinks. | 17:30 |
| genewitch | my server always says "*** System restart required ***" after a few days, what's causing this? | 17:30 |
| daftykins | voidAr: you want a PPA, not a download | 17:31 |
| voidAr | daftykins: is there a PPA to install oracle's jdk from a package and not openjdk ? | 17:31 |
| voidAr | daftykins: should it work with openjdk? maybe I can use that package.. | 17:32 |
| daftykins | voidAr: this is what your research will answer :) | 17:32 |
| snow_ru | ioria, and apt-get update again ? | 17:32 |
| voidAr | daftykins: ok, thanks | 17:32 |

| daftykins | cerealkill3r: use 'dd' to throw an ISO onto a flash drive instead, you don't need a GUI for that. | 17:38 |
| k1l | cerealkill3r: use "dd" for the ubuntu iso | 17:38 |
| cerealkill3r | wow,could you guys give me an example? | 17:38 |

| genewitch | daftykins: if i do like apt-get install foo, would that pull in a new kernel if foo has nothing to do with the kernel? | 17:41 |

| shudon | hi all :) can something automatically configure my system to deliver local mail by way of a remote SMTP server? | 17:42 |
| daftykins | genewitch: i always dist-upgrade. you shouldn't avoid upgrades, they exist for a reason - especially if your system is out on the internet with services available | 17:42 |
| genewitch | daftykins: this server isn't, and i normally agree :-) | 17:43 |
| cerealkill3r | Do i get the option to repair ubuntu out of the live usb? | 17:43 |
| k1l | genewitch: no. but 1) you should run the updates and install them due to letting them repair security issues and 2)run update-grub to make sure its put into grub and is booted on next reboot | 17:43 |
| rawm | @shudon try cronjob? | 17:43 |
| === ph is now known as Guest32730 | ||

| genewitch | k1l: manually run update-grub, ok | 17:43 |
| shudon | rawm: sure, a cronjob might be responsible for sending the email, but i wonder where it would get the idea to use an external SMTP server | 17:44 |
| k1l | genewitch: if you say there wasnt a new kernel install and you did reboot after the last one then it might not be in grub. | 17:44 |
| rawm | I use a short python script | 17:44 |

| shudon | to send email | 17:48 |
| shudon | oh | 17:48 |
| shudon | i don't need to send email | 17:48 |
| shudon | i think what i want to know is: where does nullmailer get the idea to make local mail delivery by smtp to remote smtp server | 17:49 |
| shudon | i find that in /etc/nullmailer/remotes there is one line reading "mail" which is also the name of our mail server | 17:49 |
| shudon | hostname | 17:49 |
| shudon | i wonder -- how did this get there, and also, why would nullmailer use it to deliver local mail? it's going from root@myhostname to root@myhostname | 17:50 |
| shudon | or at least, if i believe the packet dump, it is | 17:50 |
| cerealkill3r | Do i get the option to repair ubuntu out of the live usb? | 17:50 |

| rawm | my domain provider doesnt have dynamic dns software | 17:53 |

| cerealkill3r | no,we're talking about the same machine here | 17:53 |
| cerealkill3r | and trying to solve the first problem,i made it worse | 17:53 |
| daftykins | cerealkill3r: so two were broken last night too? | 17:53 |
| cerealkill3r | daftykins, nonono,just one | 17:54 |

| FireBeard | Johnny_Linux: same result | 18:11 |

| FireBeard | ihor: yes, but why the strange warning thing? I'm just curious about that | 18:14 |
| rawm | @ioria .. checking | 18:15 |
| rawm | @ioria, seems like the example uses a generic cert. I havent tried this. Will try at work tonight. Thanks | 18:17 |
| teward | rawm: by 'Enterprise" you mean 802.11x? | 18:17 |
| ioria | rawn good luck | 18:18 |

| FireBeard | anyway, thanks for the help guys, I hope I'll never see that strange thing again | 18:22 |
| pbx | FireBeard, i'm sure somebody's seen it, just nobody here in the last 15 minutes :) my guess is as above, the system is trying to tell you something about the keyboard, like "no keyboard detected" or "unknown keypress" or something. | 18:22 |
| cerealkill3r | is there somewhere i can view my currently installed software? | 18:22 |
| snow_ru | ok | 18:22 |

| SuperLag | What's the best way to remote into an Ubuntu desktop that you have running on an ESXi server, and the way to get the best resolution doing it? | 18:25 |
| cerealkill3r | oh i see | 18:25 |
| cerealkill3r | SuperLag, ssh into it? :) | 18:25 |
| SuperLag | har har har | 18:25 |
| OerHeks | sure, vnc over ssh | 18:26 |
| SuperLag | the best resolution I'm getting currently, using NX, is only 1280x800 or 1360x768 :/ | 18:27 |

| sixunhuit | Greetings. I'm quite new to Ubuntu and i'm experiencing frequent (at least once a day) freezes. I've done memcheck and figured I should look at the logs but I do not kno what to look for and where. | 18:45 |
| pbx | sixunhuit, hard freezes, like no response at all, not even mouse? | 18:45 |
| pbx | sixunhuit, ran another os without issue on this hardware previously? | 18:46 |
| sixunhuit | pbx : that's right. | 18:46 |
| sixunhuit | pbx : yeah, was on Win7 before. | 18:46 |
| pbx | sixunhuit, dunno. i never see freezes. my first thought is hardware but if it's hardware it's clearly something that didn't bother win7 for some reason | 18:46 |
| sixunhuit | pbx : I have a Nvidia graphics card and read that that could be a problem. | 18:46 |
| Lurchy | sixunhuit...I get same thing every once in a while....same nvidea card | 18:47 |
| sixunhuit | pbx : In which log would hints be hidden? | 18:47 |
| sixunhuit | Lurchy : any fix? | 18:48 |
| J4D | Hello, I once experienced freezes similar to what sixunhuit describes. It might be the nVidia Driver, try installing a prior more stable version of it. | 18:48 |
| lurbuntu | sixunhuit: check if your swapping. | 18:48 |
| lurbuntu | !swapping | 18:49 |
| lurbuntu | !swap | 18:49 |
| ubottu | swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 18:49 |
| sixunhuit | J4D from the Nvidia website? | 18:52 |
| J4D | Yes, you might find it there, but try googling around for a packaged .deb installer of a previous version. | 18:53 |
| lurbuntu | sixunhuit: Be careful following "this is what happened to me and I did" This channel has IT pros, they will not say that. | 18:54 |
| J4D | Sorry I can't provide a more accurate answer. It was a long time ago, and I haven't had any recent bugs in any of my systems. | 18:54 |
| J4D | Maybe someone else can provide a more useful answer sixunhuit. | 18:54 |
| daftykins | sixunhuit: which card do you have? | 18:56 |
| airos | hello, is it possible to know which version of ubuntu started to support TLS v1.1 and v1.2? | 18:59 |
| === EriC^^ is now known as emotion | ||
| DoYouKnow | airos: I was playing with sslsplit, and it goes pretty far back, at least 12.04 | 19:01 |
| DoYouKnow | but I'm not sure the version where a pre-made api became available | 19:01 |
| airos | from this: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html I guess it is after apache2.2 | 19:02 |

| === underyx is now known as underyx|off | ||
| eXistenZe | hey guys | 19:04 |
| eXistenZe | is it possible to make fstab mounted partitions user-writable? | 19:04 |
| === underyx|off is now known as underyx | ||
| daftykins | eXistenZe: yes by using the correct options alongside that mount. | 19:05 |
| daftykins | eXistenZe: what file system is the mount? | 19:05 |
| airos | in fact I'm looking for a additionnal way to fingerprint apache and ubuntu version remotely, I think I can use default SSL/TLS ciphers, but I need a list of default apache cipher in each ubuntu version | 19:05 |
| daftykins | airos: why don't you look at how nmap does it? | 19:05 |
| rypervenche | airos: nmap has scripts that does that well. | 19:06 |
| airos | daftykins, I trying to improve automated fingerprinting | 19:06 |
| eXistenZe | daftykins: its ext4 (UUID=85389cdf-3443-4dac-8dca-77623480654b /backup ext4 defaults 0 2) | 19:06 |
| daftykins | eXistenZe: change defaults for "user" | 19:06 |
| MasterOfDisaster | I'm trying to figure out how SSH CA support is supposed to work. How can a client figure out if a host key has been revoked by the CA? | 19:07 |
| daftykins | eXistenZe: then you'll need to ensure the permissions are correct | 19:07 |
| airos | rypervenche, I'm not sure that nmap use SSL to fingerprint webserver, do you know a partcilar script? | 19:07 |
| eXistenZe | brb | 19:08 |
| cerealkill3r | hey guys,i freshly installed ubuntu 15.04 on my lenovo thinkpad edge e520 and i got some problems | 19:09 |
| daftykins | already =| | 19:10 |
| cerealkill3r | oh yea,hi daftykins | 19:10 |
| daftykins | cerealkill3r: is it fully updated? | 19:10 |
| cerealkill3r | doing an update and upgrade right now | 19:10 |
| daftykins | run a "sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade" | 19:10 |
| cerealkill3r | it's really odd to be honest | 19:10 |
| daftykins | forget normal upgrade | 19:10 |
| cerealkill3r | ok,doing that right now | 19:10 |
| cerealkill3r | it's really odd,because i don't remember ever having trouble with 15.04 | 19:11 |
| cerealkill3r | it worked like a charm on my laptop straight out of the box | 19:11 |
| rypervenche | airos: You could use http://nmap.org/nsedoc/scripts/ssl-enum-ciphers.html | 19:12 |
| daftykins | cerealkill3r: so what's happening? | 19:12 |
| cerealkill3r | i ran dist-upgrade | 19:12 |
| cerealkill3r | it's working on it | 19:12 |
| ikonia | daftykins: he's having problems, are you not paying attentions | 19:12 |
| rypervenche | airos: So when using nmap, use --script=ssl-enum-ciphers | 19:12 |
| daftykins | ikonia: stupid comment | 19:12 |
| cerealkill3r | well he payed attention since last night | 19:13 |
| cerealkill3r | so yeah | 19:13 |
| ikonia | daftykins: it was, I'm just bored of seeing a complaint about a problem but not actually saying what the problem is | 19:13 |
| cerealkill3r | ok,done | 19:13 |
| daftykins | ikonia: ah, so best hassle the person asking - good job! | 19:13 |
| cerealkill3r | shall i reboot? | 19:13 |
| daftykins | yep | 19:13 |
| ikonia | daftykins: I was prodding you as I know you can take a joke, my apologies | 19:13 |
| daftykins | yeah nice sense of humour pal. | 19:13 |

| SashaGrey | Hi i've got a problem with my ubuntu server that is on the datacenter, after the apt-get update + upgrade i was unable to start my machine, because it was unablel to mount the /home. Now i'm in with the rescue mode but i don't know what to do. I've tried to mess around with fstab with no success. Please someone help. | 19:14 |
| cerealkill3r | daftykins, thanks so much for your help mate ! :) | 19:14 |
| daftykins | np | 19:14 |
| eXistenZe | daftykins: no luck. Care to explain the permission? | 19:15 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: compare fstab with "sudo blkid" which shows the UUIDs of your disk partitions. are you using encryption? | 19:15 |
| DefaultRJ | só gringo ? | 19:15 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins i'm not encrypting the /home folder. Can you please provide step by step instruction to do so? | 19:16 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins maybe we can go on a pvt stream to not bother the channel if you want | 19:16 |
| DF3D2 | i disabled/removed app armor now i cant boot to gui ... | 19:16 |
| daftykins | !pm | SashaGrey No, we cannot | 19:16 |
| ubottu | SashaGrey No, we cannot: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. | 19:16 |
| SashaGrey | ok wathever | 19:17 |
| SashaGrey | what do i have to do | 19:17 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: running 'sudo blkid' then viewing /etc/fstab - all should be clear, UUIDs match up with partitions | 19:17 |
| daftykins | if one is wrong, it dun work. | 19:17 |
| SashaGrey | aftykins, you may want to understand that i'm not booted on my system and i'm on a sideloaded usb key on the datacenter | 19:18 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: i see... so you're not capable of the above? | 19:18 |
| daftykins | mount your / file system and view /etc/fstab | 19:18 |
| SashaGrey | that sounds better sir | 19:18 |
| daftykins | one must open the jar before getting to the cookies :) | 19:19 |

| eXistenZe | hey daftykins care to explain me the permissions you mentioned in fstab? | 19:24 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins: fstab http://pastebin.com/sAsxvbFz | 19:26 |
| ioria | SashaGrey, which ubuntu are you on ? | 19:27 |
| daftykins | eXistenZe: no not in fstab, the file system permissions... i.e. mounting as 'user' won't help you if the volume has files and folders owned by root. | 19:28 |
| SashaGrey | ioria: it has to be server 14.04 IF i remember well. apt-get update + upgrade and gg everything messed up | 19:28 |
| === Yukkino is now known as Yukkii | ||
| eXistenZe | daftykins: there is nothing on the volume. And I can't create anything there without root | 19:29 |
| daftykins | eXistenZe: you can once you create a folder and own it as your user ;) | 19:30 |
| daftykins | and/r also own the mount point | 19:30 |
| daftykins | *and/or | 19:30 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: right so those mounts are by device (sda#) instead of UUID, so this doesn't really look like proper ubuntu server - now is the time to say if this is really something else. | 19:30 |
| eXistenZe | and how do I do that daftykins ? Own the mount point? | 19:31 |
| daftykins | eXistenZe: have you adjusted fstab and rebooted already? | 19:31 |
| === underyx is now known as underyx|off | ||

| SashaGrey | daftykins: it IS ubuntu server! | 19:33 |
| daftykins | k | 19:33 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: right, so try mounting /home since you said that was the problematic one and see what errors (if any) you get | 19:34 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: how is your command line skill? | 19:34 |
| eXistenZe | very nice daftykins thanks | 19:34 |
| daftykins | np | 19:34 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins really bad | 19:35 |
| eXistenZe | is it recomended to group the mount points in a /mount folder? I just have them in root... | 19:35 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins not "that" bad | 19:35 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins not pro | 19:35 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: so "sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt" from the live session, what does it say? errors? return to prompt with no output? | 19:36 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins: no errors | 19:36 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: ls /mnt - is the data there? | 19:37 |
| === underyx|off is now known as underyx | ||
| daftykins | does it look like /home ? | 19:37 |

| Kosjl | Hi. Is it possible that some programs aren't there for guest sessions (for example software center)? | 19:38 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins: yes there's me and an account i've made | 19:38 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: alright, you're going to need to boot the actual install and view the boot process from the console... then share whatever error it actually displays when failing | 19:39 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: safely unmount that partition first with "sudo umount /dev/sda3" | 19:39 |
| lurbuntu | Kosjl: You need admin to install, guest is not. | 19:40 |
| Kosjl | lurbuntu: Yes, I know. But it is possible that guests aren't able to start the Software center at all? | 19:40 |

| === underyx is now known as underyx|off | ||
| daftykins | erkburgles: we can't comment on someone elses script - a TM backup is just a .sparsebundle file, so there's no need to use some script someone has written | 19:41 |
| erkburgles | ok, what to do | 19:41 |
| lurbuntu | Kosjl: Not sure on the software center, never use it or guest. | 19:42 |
| daftykins | erkburgles: browse onto the disk with nautilus... drag and drop | 19:42 |
| daftykins | erkburgles: what's the reason for wanting to copy it anyway? | 19:42 |
| erkburgles | need permissions to access files | 19:42 |
| erkburgles | does that matter? | 19:43 |
| daftykins | erkburgles: just do the copy as root | 19:43 |

| Solvic | Updating BackBox console menu ... | 19:56 |
| Solvic | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 19:56 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins: ot's stuck at the boot with this message | 19:56 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: ah, lots of servers have like an IP KVM so you can see what a physically connected display would show | 19:56 |
| daftykins | SashaGrey: bit weird you don't use sda1 really | 19:57 |
| SashaGrey | daftykins i don't know what happened. everything worked out well so far | 19:57 |
| phpNoob | Hi! I have used vagrant to set up a 12.04 env for PHP. I'm trying to create a mysql database. I used ssh and then executed "mysql -u root -p" and entered a password. Now the cursor is at mysql> | 19:57 |
| phpNoob | Whatever command i write, i get no feedback, just a new row with the cursor pointing at nothing | 19:58 |
| phpNoob | Only command that i get feedback from is \h | 19:58 |
| daftykins | phpNoob: yes because all queries must end in ; | 19:58 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: Does pressing "M" drop to a busybox shell in the initrd ? | 19:58 |
| daftykins | i.e. show databases; | 19:58 |
| phpNoob | Thank you i love you <3 | 19:59 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- i can't because i'm not phisically on the server, they report the error from the datacenter | 19:59 |
| SashaGrey | and they allow me to boot to a rescue usb key | 19:59 |
| DF3D2 | so I deleted ~/.Xauthority and I still can't log in via GUI | 19:59 |
| DF3D2 | :-) | 19:59 |
| DF3D2 | :-( * | 19:59 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: you have a zit there | 20:00 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: no remote KVM? | 20:00 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- i don't even know what it is | 20:00 |
| SashaGrey | i'm on Kimsufi | 20:00 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, what man ? | 20:01 |
| DF3D2 | so can anyone help? | 20:01 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: Keyboard Video Mouse ... a datacenter without that isn't really a datacenter! | 20:01 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: i'm j/k man, i meant about the smiley face | 20:01 |
| === christoph is now known as Guest18851 | ||
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: did you get apparmor working correctly? | 20:02 |
| DF3D2 | i have no idea | 20:02 |
| DF3D2 | i cant log in to xfce via gui | 20:02 |
| DF3D2 | only command line | 20:02 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: first try logging in using the guest account, if that works then it's not a user issue | 20:02 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- i've got some boot options maybe i'm missing it | 20:02 |
| DF3D2 | i am able to log in via guest | 20:02 |
| DF3D2 | but not my user | 20:02 |
| DF3D2 | I deleted ~/.Xauthority but sitll cant log in | 20:02 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: "The disk drive for /home is not ready yet" tells you the file-system needs manually repairing with 'fsck' - it must have failed the fsck scsan done by mountall. If you know the device that hosts /home/ then the solution is to press M (for manual) at that prompt, then do "fsck /dev/XXXX" | 20:02 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: oh ok, try chowning all the files if that's ok with you | 20:03 |
| DF3D2 | in /home ? | 20:03 |
| EriC^^ | sudo chown -R <your user>: ~ | 20:03 |
| DF3D2 | k | 20:03 |
| EriC^^ | just your home dir, yeah | 20:03 |
| daftykins | TJ-: it mounted manually without issue, surely it would've flagged an fsck requirement then? | 20:03 |
| Swiftyyyy | Hey everyone, could anyone give some insight to a new user? | 20:03 |
| TJ- | daftykins: how do they know it mounted manually? | 20:03 |
| keyboardbroken | I need some help in getting my keyboard working again. Right now I can type letters and numbers in some windows, but the enter key, delete key and shift keys do not appear to work. Anyone have any ideas or a way that I can restart the session without logging out of the machine? | 20:03 |
| DF3D2 | hey that worked | 20:03 |
| DF3D2 | :-) | 20:03 |
| EriC^^ | cool | 20:03 |
| EriC^^ | :) | 20:03 |
| erkburgles | Ok thank you fellayaboy, do you have a moment to explain that command | 20:04 |
| DF3D2 | im never touching app armor again | 20:04 |
| DF3D2 | I started screwing with it to try to get zfs automount to work | 20:04 |
| daftykins | TJ-: i had them do it manually from a live session - or so i was told | 20:04 |
| Swiftyyyy | Would anyone perhaps have an idea as to why my Netbook with a Lubuntu installation suspends itself on boot? | 20:04 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- i can't do this with the live session? | 20:04 |
| histo | erkburgles: you can just navigate the directory structure of your backup to get to your files. | 20:04 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: oh | 20:04 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- i can't do this with the live session rescue mode? | 20:04 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: what happend when it stoped working ? | 20:05 |
| erkburgles | histo, can you explain | 20:05 |
| histo | erkburgles: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20080623213342356 | 20:05 |
| erkburgles | ok | 20:05 |
| TJ- | daftykins: SashaGrey OK, I see now ... had to grep from a long time back to see all the commentary | 20:05 |
| erkburgles | ty | 20:05 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- NEWS: they got at the machine and pressed yes | 20:05 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: I'm not sure... I'm using VNC to access my machine from work. It did this last night. The only thing I can figure is XChat might have something to do with it... I close that program but the problem persists | 20:05 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- just sent me an email | 20:05 |
| brainwash | Swiftyyyy: lubuntu 15.04? | 20:06 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: I simply logged off and back on last night... but I can't do that remotely since I can't re-login again | 20:06 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: are you able to do update-rc.d apparmor enable now? | 20:06 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: Not sure what "yes" is since that prompt is either "S" for skip the mount, "M" for manual recovery, or "C" for continue to wait | 20:06 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, yep | 20:07 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: So is it now when you are connected via VNC that you have the problem or when you are at home infront of the computer ? | 20:07 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- here is the email http://pastebin.com/yeDZvnuu | 20:07 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: hopefully your previous efforts fixed the file-system and now it is just slow on booting | 20:07 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: Both | 20:07 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, so disabling it screwed all the perms in my home folder it seems | 20:07 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, causing quark/dbus/login issues | 20:07 |
| fellayaboy | erkburgles, rsync is a better way of copying or rather syncing files together...its very smart program...unlike cp which just copies and pastes...it can continue even after it was interrupted during the transfering..so if a black out happens or pc shutdown..no biggie...you run the rsync -avuP again and it will scan and compare...you should look at the manual page for rsync to see each option...in terminal type man rsync i remember -u means | 20:07 |
| fellayaboy | update -P means show progress and i think -a means copy the permissions over | 20:07 |
| erkburgles | ok, I read that earlier actually, im not sure I really understand what it's saying | 20:07 |
| OerHeks | DF3D2, startx did, i guess | 20:07 |
| Swiftyyyy | Yes, lubuntu 15.04, Installed it yesterday.. during the installation I had to 'wake up' the netbook atleast 30 times since it kept suspending every 30 or so seconds | 20:08 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: OK, so they pressed "S" so the mount of /home/ was skipped. You might have problems connecting to it if you rely on SSH since your /home/$USER/ directory won't be there. Hopefully you can get KVM or console root access | 20:08 |
| Swiftyyyy | After it installed it thankfully calmed down and I can use the laptop normally | 20:08 |
| Swiftyyyy | but during boot, specifically when the first lubuntu logo comes up, it suspends and I have to wait a few moments, press a button then carry on | 20:09 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: that is an intresting problem ;) Have you checked if the keyboard layout has changed ? | 20:09 |
| brainwash | Swiftyyyy: sounds like a (known) bug in 15.04 | 20:09 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- goddamn them, i've disabled root by ssh and i don't have this KVM... now what? i'm locked out? | 20:09 |
| fellayaboy | erkburgles, yeah i know, i still get confused with the options...but rsync is better than cp because it will continue the copying where it left off. plus it can do more like compare 2 folders for example and update each folder with the stuff the other folder has. | 20:09 |
| Swiftyyyy | Yeah, I've tracked down some questions with basically the same problem | 20:10 |
| Bashing-om | Swiftyyyy: We can try, what is the question(s) . | 20:10 |
| Swiftyyyy | Sadly, no solution yet.. | 20:10 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: the keyboard hasn't changed... no configuration changes were made. This simply started happening during normal usage | 20:10 |
| erkburgles | fellayaboy: so after using sudo rsync -avuP /media/erkburgles/WIZKID/<time mache backup folder> ~/Desktop, i still get locked out of permissions, -avuP should have fixed that right? | 20:10 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: This is *why* we have KVM or IPMI on remote headless servers, so we can get in at the firmware/BIOS level when the OS goes wrong | 20:10 |
| Gerowen | Just did a fresh install of 14.04.2 after piddling around with Windows 7. I forgot and used FN+F9 on my Toshiba laptop to disable the touchpad since I use a USB mouse most of the time, and after installing Ubuntu my touchpad is permanently disabled, FN+F9 doesn't turn it back on. I've had this issue before and the only way to fix it was to boot Windows and use FN+F9 in Windows to turn it back on. Problem is I wiped the whole drive, and I really don't | 20:10 |
| Gerowen | want to install Windows just to turn my touchpad back on. Suggestions? | 20:10 |
| erkburgles | it says i need permissions* | 20:11 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: yeah, sudo startx probably messed it up, startx is pretty evil in ubuntu | 20:11 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: and you haven't rebooted the system after this happend ? | 20:11 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, k | 20:11 |
| daftykins | Gerowen: you can also try powering off, pulling the mains power and battery - hold the power button for a few seconds, then reassemble and power on - it might clear the touchpad being off. | 20:11 |
| brainwash | Swiftyyyy: bug 1450009 | 20:11 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: I can't... I'm not at the machine currently. I'm remoting into it | 20:11 |
| ubottu | bug 1450009 in systemd (Ubuntu) "suspends on closed lid, does not recognized external monitors/dock" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1450009 | 20:11 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: it's good that apparmor is enabled again though, i guess it all worked out :) | 20:11 |
| brainwash | Swiftyyyy: ^ | 20:11 |
| fellayaboy | erkburgles, i think the -a option will basically copy it over with the permission it had from the external hard drive...not sure what the permissions are...but i think you can change permisisons using sudo chown -R yourusername /folder | 20:11 |
| Swiftyyyy | Yeah, I've managed to find that much out.. | 20:11 |
| Swiftyyyy | Hopefully a solution comes soon | 20:11 |
| Swiftyyyy | It's not that big of a deal | 20:12 |
| Swiftyyyy | Since its thankfully only limited to boot | 20:12 |
| fellayaboy | erkburgles, but being thats its from a mac im not sure how it will change those permissions or if its still locked somehow | 20:12 |
| erkburgles | right | 20:12 |
| erkburgles | thats why i was using the script | 20:12 |
| Gerowen | daftykins: K, will try that, thanks, :-) | 20:12 |
| erkburgles | ok i will try | 20:12 |
| fellayaboy | also | 20:12 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, still cant get zfs to automount tho heh | 20:12 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- there's no way to do it via the live usb ? | 20:12 |
| Cerealkill3r | guys,is there any way to make my panel stay like i'm always hovering my mouse on it? :) | 20:12 |
| fellayaboy | erkburgles, sudo chmod -R 777 /folder | 20:12 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: I dont have any idea on how to reload anything related to the keyboard without rebooting the system.. Maybe someoneelse here might be able to help you | 20:13 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: why not? did you install the packages it needs? | 20:13 |
| fellayaboy | it will give it full permission though erkburgles | 20:13 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, yes I can import my pool fine | 20:13 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: but I think a reboot should resolve this issue | 20:13 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: can you manually mount it? | 20:13 |
| DF3D2 | but it wont automount on boot | 20:13 |
| DF3D2 | im using the "legacy method" | 20:13 |
| histo | SashaGrey: yes fsck /dev/sda3 from live usb | 20:13 |
| brainwash | Swiftyyyy: you found this report beforehand? | 20:13 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: did you add it to fstab? | 20:13 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, yes | 20:13 |
| Swiftyyyy | Yeah, I've googled around a bit | 20:13 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: It doesn't require a reboot... I need to restart the window manager session... | 20:13 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, zfs set mountpoint=legacy storage | 20:13 |
| DF3D2 | storage /storage zfs defaults 0 0 | 20:14 |
| brainwash | Swiftyyyy: so... why did you not mention it in your initial question then? :/ | 20:14 |
| SashaGrey | histo i'm gonna try this again | 20:14 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: if the mount is still failing when the system boots you have no way to work with it; live isn't going to help here. These situations need console access, as I said | 20:14 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: you can always just add the command you're using in /etc/rc.local , it won't be the "best/most proper" way to do it, it'll work though i think | 20:14 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, but it says it can't find the dataset | 20:14 |
| persephone | i just installed ubuntu 14.04.2 64 bit. it comes with vim, which is good, but not with clipboard support, which is bad. what's the best/cleanest way of getting the latest vim? | 20:14 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: something is running int he background that has captured the keyboard input and I need to restart the session so it will release the keyboard back to normal usage | 20:14 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, ive tried that b4 with zfs it never works | 20:14 |
| DF3D2 | zfs is a different beast | 20:14 |
| Seveas | persephone: vim as shipped by ubuntu has clipboard support | 20:14 |
| histo | SashaGrey: what data center are you using? | 20:14 |
| SashaGrey | Kimsufi | 20:14 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: oh | 20:15 |
| brainwash | persephone: which clipboard support? any link? | 20:15 |
| SashaGrey | histo: Kimsufi | 20:15 |
| persephone | if i do vim --version i see -clipboard | 20:15 |
| persephone | it's vim 7.4, small version without gui | 20:15 |
| rypervenche | persephone: Which version of vim do you have installed? dpkg -l | grep vim | 20:15 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: sounds like it. | 20:15 |
| keyboardbroken | anyone know how to restart a window manager session without logging off or rebooting the machine? | 20:16 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- histo i'm confused one says it can be done the other no | 20:16 |
| fellayaboy | is it me or is vim more bugged out lately...theres been times when i say :wq and ill get a capitol W randomly | 20:16 |
| persephone | vim-common and vim-tiny | 20:16 |
| fellayaboy | and instead of yanking lets say 5 lines with y5 itll copy 6 lines | 20:16 |
| rypervenche | persephone: Try vim-full | 20:16 |
| brainwash | persephone: so, you don't actually want the latest version, but one which is compiled with clipboard support, or? | 20:16 |
| persephone | can't i have both? | 20:16 |
| burmph | keyboardbroken: Did you mention the release and desktop? | 20:17 |
| rypervenche | persephone: sudo apt-get install vim-full | 20:17 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: daftykins said you'd already checked and mounted the /home/ file-system using Live earlier, in which case the file-system is OK, so if it still isn't mounting you need to go deeper, which requires you be able to interact with the initrd shell | 20:17 |
| histo | SashaGrey: can't you see the console in their 'control panel' ? | 20:17 |
| keyboardbroken | burmph: irrelevant | 20:17 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: I am not sure that you can do that, since the WM-session is started before you login. Hence you will be logged off when you do | 20:17 |
| histo | TJ-: ahh missed the bit were he mounted it | 20:17 |
| burmph | keyboardbroken: Not true but ut is your issue. | 20:17 |
| burmph | it* | 20:17 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: is this a Virtual Machine or a Dedicated Server, and is it owned by you or by the hoster? | 20:18 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, it works just fine w/ the same setup on a Centos 6.6 production machine | 20:18 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- it's a dedicated server | 20:18 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: I know it can be done, because I have done it in the past. I haven't had a problem like this in a long time, so I've forgotten | 20:18 |
| TJ- | histo: me to first time ... the history goes back a long time I had to grep the log file :) | 20:18 |
| momoshi | so .. stupid question .. what would happen if one were to kill the systemd process .. if that's even possible? | 20:18 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: using fstab? | 20:18 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, yep | 20:18 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: I'd suspect failing hardware... are the disks RAIDed ? | 20:18 |
| MonkeyDust | momoshi try it in a live session | 20:19 |
| persephone | do i need to use a ppa to get vim-full? generally, how does one work out which ppa to use, whether it's safe to be trusted etc? | 20:19 |
| brainwash | !ppa | 20:19 |
| ubottu | A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge | 20:19 |
| momoshi | MonkeyDust: ..so .. how would I go about killing it? :P | 20:19 |
| Seveas | persephone: install the vim-gnome package | 20:19 |
| brainwash | persephone: is vim-full even a valid package name? | 20:19 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- i suspect failing hardware too, the disk is one single 2 Tb disk. I've done all their tests and everything seems normal. | 20:19 |
| rypervenche | persephone: You don't need a PPA. I would recommend staying clear of PPAs unless it's for a specific software that is not available in the repos and does not conflict with any currently-installed packages. | 20:19 |
| Seveas | persephone: vim-full is a redhatism. | 20:19 |
| erkburgles | histo: Is there a way to see in the gui the files as I would have seen them in mac osx, instead of a huge number of seperate folders? | 20:19 |
| keyboardbroken | burmph: I am remoted into the system, and just need to restart the window manager session without it logging me off... there used to be a way to kill a process and relaunch... everyone I've looked so far says "unity --replace" but I get an error message saying the window manager is already in use | 20:20 |
| rypervenche | persephone: Ah sorry, I was trying to get on an Ubuntu system to check the name of it. Guess I'm used to seeing it on RH. | 20:20 |
| MonkeyDust | momoshi try /etc/init.d/... stop or so | 20:20 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: I give up! server in a remote datacenter and there's no KVM/IPMI console and disks aren't RAIDed !?! | 20:20 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- come on buddy please you can't just leave me | 20:20 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: i wonder if using cron's @reboot would work, i doubt though | 20:20 |
| histo | erkburgles: yeah use your file manager to browse the directories just like you did on mac osx. | 20:20 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- there are months of work on that server | 20:20 |
| fellayaboy | whats the best link for implementing windows active directory users to log into a ubuntu machine and create a home folder etc for them | 20:20 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, ive tried that too the issue is its giving me an error on mount -a now | 20:20 |
| Cerealkill3r | what was the setting so i can make the top panel in ubuntu always display the settings? | 20:20 |
| Cerealkill3r | like i'm always hovering on it with my cursor | 20:20 |
| fellayaboy | on ubuntu 15.05 | 20:21 |
| TJ- | SashaGrey: You have good backups then obviously | 20:21 |
| fellayaboy | 15.04 | 20:21 |
| Cerealkill3r | have it,but where | 20:21 |
| Cerealkill3r | ? :D | 20:21 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- sort of | 20:21 |
| DF3D2 | filesystem 'storage' cannot be mounted, unable to open the dataset | 20:21 |
| histo | erkburgles: from that link it looks like the files are saved by date time directory, then inside of their is all your directories etc... is there something you're looking for specifically that you saw on osx? | 20:21 |
| Cerealkill3r | fellayaboy, i did it once,but i can't seem to remember how i did it :) i am running 15.04 | 20:21 |
| Gerowen | daftykins: Did what you suggested and, just for kicks, went into the BIOS upon startup. Apparently on this laptop (I've had this problem with other laptops and this one is different) there's actually an option in the BIOS that gets toggled when you use FN+F9 in Windows, so I just turned it back on in the BIOS and all is well, :-) | 20:21 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: there might be a way, but you need to be infront of the computer. Dont know to even try this via vnc | 20:22 |
| daftykins | Gerowen: hurrah \o/ | 20:22 |
| persephone | you think neovim sounds like something which would be supported by ubuntu quickly? | 20:22 |
| SashaGrey | TJ- wait a minute. we can login on the live and enable on the ssh config file the root access get in fix the problem and restore the old config | 20:22 |
| momoshi | MonkeyDust: not working .. basically my problem is that I can't reboot anymore .. and systemd is using up about 60% CPU usage .. other things aren't workign either anymore | 20:22 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: you need "console"-access to the machine and then you might be able to save your session while restarting your WM | 20:22 |
| Cerealkill3r | never mind,i found it,thanks | 20:22 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: Assume that I do, what are you suggesting? | 20:23 |
| brainwash | persephone: quickly? | 20:23 |
| brainwash | persephone: also, if you don't want to use a PPA, simply compile vim (or neovim) from source | 20:24 |
| persephone | sort of soon after it's actually released | 20:24 |
| histo | erkburgles: if their user's data files I'd assume they'd be in home/some_user_name | 20:24 |
| brainwash | persephone: maybe | 20:24 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: i dont know much about zfs, i get the feeling it needs a command to be run first? | 20:24 |
| brainwash | persephone: first, debian needs to pick it up and package it | 20:24 |
| EriC^^ | i dunno | 20:24 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: ctrl+alt+F1 then 'export DISPLAY=:0' and the do unity --replace. But you need to be infront of the computer to do that or your risk locking your self out | 20:25 |
| DF3D2 | EriC^^, its cool ill figure it out | 20:25 |
| BBLLCC | plymouth is not showed automatically, the window where im prompted to write my password I mean. Instead of that the machine stops for 10 seconds in a blank screen reading: myusername:tty1 | 20:25 |
| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: I've tried that already... doesn't work | 20:25 |
| BBLLCC | myusername:tty1 login | 20:25 |
| BBLLCC | but my actual password doesnt work there | 20:26 |
| drmagoo | keyboardbroken: yeah, because your are not infront of your computer and are connecting via VNC | 20:26 |

| keyboardbroken | drmagoo: You don't need to be in front of the machine. The export DISPLAY=:0 redirects the session (no matter where it is started) to the local machine display handle. It's how I start programs remotely when I'm not at home and the program is a GUI based application | 20:29 |

| wizzkidD | hey can anyone assist me - i've cloned my source HDD (which contained my full ubuntu install) to my SSD destination drive. When I did the clone the SSD was attached via USB using a SATA-to-USB adaptor. When I plug the destination SSD into the SATA port and remove the original source HDD, I expect it to boot (i've checked that the BIOS options select the SSD as the bootable drive). but I just get a blinking cursor. | 20:33 |
| wizzkidD | However... if I plug the SSD into the USB port, Ubuntu boots fine. How can I resolve this? | 20:34 |

| xjkx | About versions, if ubuntu 14.04 is supposed to come out in april, shouldn't I be in 15.04 ? I see in the site 14.04 being offered still. It says LTS, ok. Right below they offer 15.04. So the 15.04 is not LTS ? How do I know if the one I have right now (14.04) is LTS or not ? | 20:42 |
| wizzkidD | EriC^^: yes, I have the SSD connected via SATA (as it would be permanently), and can boot too most live OS's, but identifying the SSD and reinstalling grub has confused me. | 20:42 |
| k1l | !releases | xjkx | 20:43 |
| ubottu | xjkx: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 20:43 |
| k1l | xjkx: LTS are 12.04, 14.04 and 16.04 will be. all others just have 9 months support | 20:43 |
| EriC^^ | DF3D2: yeah, try running zpool status -v | 20:43 |

| DF3D2 | i give up something in ubuntu is just wonky | 20:44 |
| wizzkidD | EriC^^: If I boot from a live OS, which would you recommend? (in order to take the next steps in making my SSD bootable) ? | 20:44 |
| xjkx | k1l: alright thanks, and I'll see the releases link. So my 14.04 is LTS, right ? Since there is no 14.04 that isn't LTS ? And the site offers 14.04.2...so I don't know what I have anymore | 20:44 |
| EriC^^ | wizzkidD: try booting an ubuntu live usb | 20:44 |
| persephone | xjkx: type uname -a | 20:45 |
| persephone | i have 14.04.2 but it shows up there as 14.04.1 | 20:45 |
| k1l | xjkx: 14.04.2 is the second "servicepack". its called point-releases. that are just made for LTS version, to not have to load all updates from 2014 on a new install. and they offer a more recent kernel and xorg setting | 20:46 |

| k1l | persephone: make sure you have all updates installed | 20:46 |
| persephone | i do | 20:46 |
| persephone | all the ones it offers when i do software update anyway | 20:46 |

| k1l | persephone: run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" that will install all packages that are offered for updating | 20:47 |
| k1l | xjkx: "lsb_release -d" gives youw hat? | 20:48 |
| wizzkidD | EriC^^: I'll give it a shot now... | 20:48 |
| k1l | xjkx: it should be the 3.13.0-55 kernel anyway. so you need to run the updates! "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" | 20:48 |
| EriC^^ | wizzkidD: ok | 20:49 |
| xjkx | k1l: Description: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS. Oh ok, thanks. Hey see my uname again, does that #64 mean I installed the 64 bits ? Not even that I remember | 20:49 |
| k1l | xjkx: no. the #64 is just the build number from the kernel | 20:49 |
| histo | xjkx: looks like 32bit to me | 20:49 |
| k1l | xjkx: i686 i686 i686 says its 32bit. | 20:50 |
| xjkx | Alright thanks k1l & histo. One last questions, k1l tells me to do apt-get full-upgrade, what's the difference of apt-get dist-upgrade ? Because that's what I do (sure, I havent updated in a long time though) | 20:50 |
| === Fuchs is now known as Kanga | ||
| k1l | xjkx: its not difference. its the new command which tries to be less confusing (most people think of a 14.04 to 14.10 upgrade when they hear "dist" and upgrade) | 20:51 |

| k1l | did you enable the 64bit in the vbox settings of that guest? | 21:16 |
| merpnderp | k1l: ah....I don't know how ot do that | 21:17 |
| EriC^^ | merpnderp: sometimes you need to enable virtualization / vt-x in the bios to use 64bit vm's | 21:17 |
| merpnderp | EriC^^: so boot into bios and set vt-x? | 21:18 |
| k1l | if that cpu supports that at all | 21:18 |
| EriC^^ | follow k1l 's advice and tell us what vbox says | 21:18 |

| merpnderp | I don't see anything about that in the vbox's preferences. | 21:19 |
| EriC^^ | merpnderp: when you click add, it says to name the vm and also if it's 32bit or 64 bit | 21:19 |
| EriC^^ | did you choose 64? | 21:19 |
| k1l | merpnderp: its in the guest settings in virtualbox. see the cpu tab | 21:19 |
| merpnderp | no, when I click "New" I get a modal that says Name: then Type and Version. | 21:19 |
| merpnderp | In the Type dropdown I picked "Linux" and then all the Versions are [type] (32 bit) | 21:20 |

| k1l | dreth: xampp is a hell of a security issue. so if that system has any chance of going into the internet dont use xampp | 21:27 |
| k1l | merpnderp: then please boot into the bios and see if you need to enable virtual host stuff there. | 21:28 |
| dreth | k1l: ah ok, no this is just for my laptop to muck around with. Is XAMPP the ticket if security isn't a concern? | 21:28 |

| erkburgles | hello again, enough messing around, straightforward question possibly no answer-how in the hell do i free my photos from the maximum security osx prison and import them to ubuntu | 22:34 |
| erkburgles | speaking particularly about iphoto | 22:34 |
| teward | p5yc071c: does it have a valid partition table and valid partitions? Check `sudo fdisk -l`, see what it says about /deb/sdb1 | 22:34 |
| teward | !crosspost | erkburgles | 22:35 |
| ubottu | erkburgles: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. | 22:35 |
| axsuul | @pragmaticenigma: /home/vagrant/.rbenv/shims | 22:35 |
| pragmaticenigma | p5yc071c, either the device your plugging in is dead, or you don't have a USB drive and instead you have a USB wireless mouse receiver | 22:35 |
| bekks | I have a weird problem with lightdm - accidentially I pressed some keys which kind of "zoomed" the login display - how can I revert that? | 22:35 |
| erkburgles | im sorry, there was nothing going on in ubuntu-server, i thought something had gone terribly wrong | 22:35 |
| pragmaticenigma | axsuul, is vagrant a user on your machine? | 22:35 |
| teward | p5yc071c: you've either got a bad drive, or it's not a drive. | 22:35 |
| axsuul | pragmaticenigma: yep | 22:35 |
| axsuul | ive searched all | 22:35 |
| teward | erkburgles: i don't think iPhoto has anything to do with -server, so you should be here, not in -server. | 22:36 |
| axsuul | rc files | 22:36 |
| axsuul | and I can't locate where it's injecting that path | 22:36 |
| erkburgles | can you help me teard? | 22:36 |
| erkburgles | teward? | 22:36 |
| pragmaticenigma | axsuul, did you recently install any new programs? | 22:36 |
| teward | erkburgles: no, but I can tell you to wait and see if someone else responds | 22:36 |
| axsuul | nope, well this has been an issue for awhile | 22:36 |
| erkburgles | lol | 22:36 |
| pragmaticenigma | axsuul, does any other computer have trouble accessing the drive? | 22:36 |
| axsuul | nope | 22:37 |
| pragmaticenigma | axsuul, does this sound like the issue? http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-2218891.html | 22:37 |
| axsuul | nope it's not a device issue | 22:37 |
| pragmaticenigma | err | 22:38 |
| pragmaticenigma | sorry | 22:38 |
| pragmaticenigma | wires crossed | 22:38 |
| pragmaticenigma | p5yc071c, does this sound familiar http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-2218891.html | 22:38 |
| pragmaticenigma | axsuul, there isn't anyway to see what might be updating PATH... but you could check to see if it's part of your bash configuration | 22:39 |
| axsuul | ok, i've tried searching in content of all files too | 22:40 |
| pragmaticenigma | axsuul, start with "nano ~/.bashrc" and see if it is in there... there are a couple other places it could be | 22:40 |
| pragmaticenigma | I have to bounce out | 22:40 |

| Naphos | hi all - I am running 14.04 LTS on my laptop (Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro) and if I log in really quickly it looks like HDPI scaling is not applied - does anyone know where to even begin looking to fix this? | 22:54 |
| vamsiampolu | I have installed ubuntu on my internal hard drive and am still facing similar problems.I have tried using nomodeset,I have tried the recovery mode,I have updating the BIOS driver,however it always hangs at the Loading initial ramdisk. | 22:55 |
| === cerberus is now known as Guest19415 | ||
| ExecSlim | Naphos: does the HDPI scaling work after you have logged in? | 22:57 |
| Naphos | ExecSlim, no I have to log out and log back in and it works | 22:58 |
| ExecSlim | Naphos: so you log in, doesn't work then log back in and then it works? | 22:59 |
| Naphos | ExecSlim, yes | 22:59 |
| ExecSlim | What happens if you log out and then in again? | 23:00 |

| ExecSlim | (after you have logged in for the second time that is) | 23:01 |
| Naphos | ExecSlim, the scaling of fonts on the desktop and file manager and other apps are scaled up as they should be | 23:01 |
| ExecSlim | Naphos: is it a one-time only issue or does it happen everytime you restart then log in? | 23:01 |
| vamsiampolu | Do I need to fix my GRUB?? | 23:02 |
| vamsiampolu | I have tried installed fglrx drivers from chroot but they would not install. | 23:02 |
| Vilmore | Hi, after installing ubuntu on a dual boot with win8.1, bluetooth seems to have disapeared, do you have please an idea of what happened or how can I fixed that ? I already checked all the forums i could find and no fix :( | 23:03 |
| Naphos | ExecSlim, it happens every time if I enter my password quickly - if I wait about 10 seconds or so before entering my password and then log in - it scales properly on first log in | 23:03 |
| ExecSlim | Naphos: sorry, I have to go | 23:04 |
| Naphos | ExecSlim, any idea what does the scaling? | 23:05 |
| Naphos | ExecSlim, I am a developer and I would even look at the source - just don't know where to start looking | 23:05 |

| sehnsucht | where do i put alias commands so that sudo uses them. i put them in ~/.bashrc and that's no good (fine when i don't use sudo) | 23:19 |
| jr_ | Hey guys, I have a bad superblock on a radi0 configuration. I tried the typical things to fix it, mdadm. But it doesn't work | 23:19 |
| sehnsucht | i want to alias vi=gvim | 23:19 |
| sehnsucht | and vim=gvim | 23:19 |
| jr_ | Can anyone help me figure out what's going on? | 23:19 |
| Ben64 | sehnsucht: why would you want to alias a terminal based editor to a graphical one? quite silly | 23:21 |
| CodeBox | helo | 23:22 |
| sehnsucht | i want to use vim but when i type vi or vim the colours are wrong and it starts in replace mode. gvim loads my colors file properly. what's the difference, anyway? | 23:22 |
| === user is now known as Guest58860 | ||
| Ben64 | sehnsucht: gvim is graphical. if you want to use gvim type gvim | 23:23 |
| jr_ | Literally everything I have been trying is failing | 23:24 |
| jr_ | bad superblocks on ever partition lol | 23:24 |
| jr_ | every* | 23:24 |
| sehnsucht | Ben64: so where do i start getting the vi or vim commands to not start in replace mode and not ignore my colors file | 23:25 |
| sehnsucht | and my vimrc by the looks of things | 23:25 |
| Ben64 | mine doesn't start in replace mode, maybe you've already changed stuff? | 23:26 |
| mustmodify | Am I correct in understanding that `sh` is a shell, so that if I do `sh -c "some command"` I can't run bash scripts? | 23:30 |
| teward | mustmodify: if #!/bin/bash is at the beginning it may run it in bash, but you can't write pure bash into the console and make it run, no, when `sh` is being run | 23:30 |
| teward | mustmodify: note that `sh` is actually `dash` (it's a symlink), and Bash is probably what you need to use for a shell instead | 23:31 |
| mustmodify | thought so, thanks for the confirmation. Just wanted to make sure I am not going too far down the wrong path. | 23:31 |
| mustmodify | right, that's my understanding, but didn't want to make an assumption that caused the answer to change. | 23:31 |
| mustmodify | :) | 23:31 |

| mustmodify | bekks: You probably don't remember my panic from yesterday but it seems like I had bad sectors, and I guess that's why I couldn't write to /tmp | 23:32 |
| bekks | mustmodify: when running sh yourscript.bashscript, and your script has a shebang "!/bin/bash", sh will start bash to start your script. | 23:32 |
| === akin is now known as Guest29941 | ||
| sehnsucht | ben64: ok, something in my .vimrc must be doing the replace thing. but first, the colours file. the colours are all different if i don't use gvim | 23:32 |
| sehnsucht | i'm using solarized | 23:32 |
| mustmodify | bekks: right that's not the situation here. | 23:33 |
| sehnsucht | it's just in my .vim/colors/solarized.vim. its picked by by :colorscheme but its wrong. | 23:33 |
| bekks | mustmodify: then whats the shebang of your script? | 23:33 |
| mustmodify | bekks: my deploy script is executing single commands... "cd /blah blah && bundle exec rake blah" | 23:33 |
| bekks | mustmodify: whats the first line of your script? | 23:34 |
| bekks | mustmodify: The very first line. | 23:34 |
| TheKnight_80 | Hello everyone! | 23:35 |
| bekks | mustmodify: are you still there? | 23:37 |
| samful | hello. | 23:37 |
| mustmodify | yeah | 23:38 |
| mustmodify | I'm writing a response. | 23:38 |
| bekks | :) | 23:38 |
| bekks | The response is a oneliner :) | 23:38 |
| mustmodify | bekks: there is a ruby script on my dev machine. It's a deploy script. It uses "sh" probably for consistency or something... I didn't write it. But it doesn't call other scripts within sh... it just issues one-off commands. like "rm whatever" and "cd whatever && git ls-remote whatever" | 23:39 |
| TheKnight_80 | I have a question: How do you manage to pronounce "manage to" fast? | 23:39 |
| bekks | mustmodify: irrelevant. Whats the first line of your script? | 23:39 |
| sehnsucht | ben64: do i have to do something to make term 256 colours from bash? | 23:39 |
| TheKnight_80 | I'm spanish and I'm learning english | 23:39 |
| mustmodify | the ruby script on my dev machine? | 23:39 |
| mustmodify | uhhhh.... | 23:40 |
| bekks | mustmodify: the script you want to execute using sh. | 23:40 |
| Ben64 | sehnsucht: yep | 23:40 |
| TheKnight_80 | But I just can't say those words fast, I get jammed on manaGE TO | 23:40 |
| sehnsucht | tried TERM=xterm-256color but it's not working | 23:40 |
| sehnsucht | from within gvim i was typing set t_Co=256 but this isn't doing anything in vim | 23:41 |
