[00:00] bubbasaures: I'll run that script, but can I do it from within a live USB? I can't actually boot into the harddrive installed version at this moment [00:00] Oh I see [00:00] Reading it now [00:00] Nikesh, the bootscript will give a lot of info we would have to ask in general in one fell swoop, this would be for fixing the dualboot. [00:01] bubbasaures: Awesome. Btw, is it better to select 'Install alongside Windows' or 'Something else' (and create the partitions myself) in the installer? [00:02] Nikesh: depends what you want [00:02] Nikesh, Personal choice really, I do gthe manual always. [00:02] (I actually have to reinstall - I chose the first option and couldn't boot into Ubuntu so I tried installing a second time with the second option and then there was an installation error) [00:03] Nikesh, ask the channel to help on that if needed, or maybe a why, it may not be needed. [00:04] more in depth why anyway, if you can [00:05] !ubottu something else [00:05] Nikesh: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:05] !ubottu partition install [00:05] Nikesh: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:05] !partition [00:05] For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PartitioningSchemes l - For partitioning programs see !GParted, or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap [00:06] what happened to ext3cow next3 all versionning filesystems? [00:08] Interesting that https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot suggests ` Instead, it is best to do a native install of Ubuntu, and then virtualize the other operating system.` [00:09] Nikesh, There are as many opinions as there are possibilities, choose what works for you. [00:12] Nikesh, Do you have two HD's perchance? [00:13] bubbasaures: Yes but only one fits inside the laptop [00:13] I thought of booting through USB -> SATA adaptor, but I heard that could be terribly slow [00:14] Nikesh, booting what through the usb an install or live? [00:15] installed* [00:17] bubbasaures: If I simply took out the Windows HDD and booted it through a USB -> SATA adaptor when I needed to use it [00:19] Nikesh: I don't think windows will take to kindly to that. [00:19] it may work [00:19] Yeah seems unlikely. Dual boot sounds like the best, and next would be a VM [00:20] Is there a guide on how to do the 'Something else' option for installing Dual Boot? [00:20] Looking.. [00:21] Nikesh, I would use the channel, it is peer reviewed, not a random web link. [00:21] or at least check the work here is all ;) [00:22] OK! [00:23] bubbasaures: So then, when I choose 'Something else', I will divide up the unallocated space into /, swap and /home, and I recall and option on where to install the boot, which should I choose? [00:24] And second - How do I specificy to install in UEFI mode? I don't recall seeing an option for that [00:24] Nikesh, on the first gui of something else boot should be in the HD should be sda, no partitions [00:25] Nikesh, I had wondered if this was UEFI and if you knew, that is key info. === sins-_b is now known as sins- [00:25] Nikesh, Great UEFI help here, you might be sure where our at is correct and you've booted the live correctly. [00:25] your* [00:27] my at? I'm waiting for Windows updates to finish so I can start installing Ubuntu >_> [00:27] Nikesh, You've seen the UEFI wiki, you just seem lost in general is all? [00:28] Nikesh: the ubuntu install should boot in uefi 'mode' and just work. Typically people disable secure boot and fast boot in their bios. [00:28] bubbasaures: I think I've got it for the moment. I'll wait until I'm actually installing or have installed and need help so it's more clear. [00:28] cool, best luck. ;) [00:29] histo: OK. I've disabled both [00:29] Nikesh: then you should be good to go. Are you going to dual boot? === sins-_b is now known as sins- [00:31] histo: Yeah [00:32] Nikesh: Sounds like you're on the right path thnen. [00:40] I am new to this.

I try "sudo cat /dev/cdrom > " & "sudo dd if=/dev/cdrom of=./", both of which are returning input/output errors. I've enabled css for the drive; anyone know why it won't copy? [01:07] The drive is, relatively, aged though, maybe it's just not up to the new css? [01:09] raj: yeah just edit .bashrc and create an alias then. [01:09] here are the drive specs, if anyone can decipher those: http://www.hastebin.com/ujicikewup.sm [01:10] promet, look in /dev/ what your drive is named, i guess /dev/dvd [01:10] it says in the paste... /dev/sr0 [01:11] yeah [01:12] just a potential newbie. Used linux exclusively for years, but that was along time ago, thinking of coming back, and trying to decide between ubuntu and ubuntu mate. Both seem good. on mate via usb now trying it [01:13] ubuntu-mate_, Multiple desktops is easy, you can have both and more, if you need. [01:13] is there a way i can share my multiple monitor (quad monitor setup) desktop using some remote desktop sharing software? [01:14] ubuntu-mate_, agreed, if you're running ubuntu-base, you can have several window managers and switch between pretty painlessly [01:14] the main difference seems to be the mate desktop against the unity desktop, both seem to be configurable. I am leaning towards ubuntu mate [01:14] when I'm doing "pretty things" I use Unity, when I'm doing "hungry things" I use awesome-wm [01:15] so i can have the unity desktop if i choose mate? [01:15] ubuntu-mate_, yes [01:16] ubuntu-mate_, I mean, I've never done it myself, and unity can be sort of finicky about what it runs alongside sometimes, gnome-shell in particular, but very probably, yes... [01:17] i used to run mandrake back in the day, and I remember spending 3 days just getting my wireless card to start up again after going to sleep. But in 10 mins in ubuntu, I had my network printer set up, chromecast working, and even netflix streaming. Was surprised how easy it was [01:18] a finicky unity is an opinion promet no real evidence as you describe alongside DE [01:19] ubuntu-mate, yes; I feel that, same here. Mad community badgers have been very busy in the meantime <*genuflects*> === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [01:19] things have "tidied up" quite a bit.

[01:20] promet, Yeah, my first thought outside vanilla who knows. ;O) [01:20] right? [01:20] oh i have been there and done that :) I am not that much of a "fiddler". My use is fairly pedestrian, I just like the security element of linux, compared to windows. But I moved from a desktop to laptop only and it was just a pain tat is why i stuck with windows [01:21] Hiya. What's the best way to figure out why my main keyboard isn't working at some random times? [01:22] I am basically in continual awe of ubuntu development, how so many disparate people, could get so many details right, and get paid so little for it ;) [01:22] if you're bored at your computer you can tune in to our radio at http://www.crate-digger.net enjoy. 8D [01:22] it is humbling... [01:22] kryptn: what kind of keyboard? [01:22] spammers everywhere tonight... [01:22] Corsair k95 rgb [01:22] Though this logitech one hasn't failed me yet [01:22] promet, My only concern is separation of opinions and fact is all, gotta wear the bias. ;) [01:22] logitech>too-pricey gaming kbs [01:22] Windows is a sieve; I mean few are "really" safe, but windows is def a sieve... [01:23] nicomachus: mechanical > not [01:23] bubbasaures, amen; I am just an "extemporaneous" speaker. I try to keep it tight as I can, but... [01:24] lol. you may check the driver. but I don't have experience with mechs [01:24] is there even a driver? [01:24] Worked out of the box. i doubt there's a official driver === corey84__ is now known as Corey84 [01:26] nicomachus, I got fed up with pricey keyboards too, but love logitech though; went and bought a usb "Logitech K120" (bargain basement) keyboard, and I love it. ~16.00 USD [01:26] promet: bought a $10 wireless usb combo keyboad/touchpad for my main keyboard on an HTPC. Best one I own. [01:26] must have poured an entire pint of beer on it by now, still chugging along [01:26] though my "fast twitch" gaming days are probably past ;) [01:28] nicomachus, weird right? Proof that we are getting hosed. I may never buy another back-lit keyboard... [01:29] I will buy a 1.75USD usb overhanging "nightlite" for my 10.00USD keyboard instead. MAD GIBS! [01:29] thanks for the help guys, take care [01:29] Who needs backlit keyboards anyways? [01:29] ubuntu-mate_, roger that, be well [01:30] mjbrancato, agreed; need the extra 30 bucks "vanity pricing" more... [01:30] promet: yah, especially if you touch type or are computer savvy. [01:30] <----officially swearing off vanity gear (unless it's schwag) [01:31] never seen a back lit keyboard worth using as a keyboard, so :p [01:31] 'greed [01:31] Speaking of backlit keyboards, take a look at this beast laptop: https://system76.com/laptops/bonobo [01:32] not like I would need the backlit keyboard, but it has it on it. I am just amazed that there are laptops this powerful. I mean standard companies don't produce quality like this [01:32] I mean, I bet there are some, it just seems like a very expensive safari...

My laptop's no "air", that's or sure [01:36] mjbrancato: that's a problem for your DE's session manager [01:36] mjbrancato: if it's default Ubuntu, that'd be GNOME+compiz [01:36] and hey, beatin' off a mugger is *bonus* [01:36] +3 gaming laptop of bump raising.. [01:37] petrvs, well I was running Ubuntu with Unity and it didn't work. I don't like Unity, so I stripped it out and installed Cinnamon from Linux Mint. I just wish it worked. It is damaging my workflow [01:37] But it still is based off of Gnome [01:37] mjbrancato: that's probably the exact same session manager, GNOME 3's [01:37] yeah [01:38] mjbrancato, have you tried awesome-wm, it's all "keyboard-y" and a bit of a learning curve, but works and is quick and light [01:38] mjbrancato: ^ very much advise you to ignore that :p [01:38] petrvs do you know what I would have to do to fix it? I tried researching it, but the closest I found was the compiz plugin I have now in the screenshot, and some other text edit stuff, but it's very ricky [01:38] whenever I bork my unity installs (a lot) it is my rescue wm [01:39] he hasn't broken it :p [01:39] oh it's a DE? eh, I customized a lot with Cinnamon. I love it, haha [01:39] mjbrancato: you using nvidia? [01:39] no, awesome is a wm, and it has nothing to do with your situation [01:39] yes nvidia and it even has CUDA!

I wonder when it will be fixed. But it should still work on the main monitor then? [01:45] Funny thing is Apple has the same issues where applications don't save in the correct monitors and workspaces [01:45] dunno [01:45] GNOME 3 is kind of... silly [01:45] they abandoned their entire code base [01:45] and then their leader quit [01:45] * petrvs shrugs [01:46] Gnome 3 is a joke, so is Unity. Cinnamon I actually like and is a great fork from Gnome 3 [01:46] Just needs updates and to become more streamlined [01:48] I'm trying to set up squid-deb-proxy. The access control list limits it to ubuntu official repositories. How do I tell it to cache all packages from everywhere, without caring what the url is? [01:49] mjbrancato: cinnamon is not a fork, AFAIK [01:49] just a top-level UI reconfig [01:49] ahh ok, it's just what I have read [01:50] reading things will get you into trouble every time :p [01:50] haha right. Very true, and it breaks things, but then sometimes you learn things. [01:55] I guess it was originally a fork. And I know I shouldn't take from wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinnamon_%28software%29 [01:55] Hi. How can I set the home directory of a user to be in a different drive? [01:56] HewwoThere Either set it up as a partition? Or maybe an alias using ln -s source destination. probably not best solutions, but ideas. [01:57] Well, I'm a bit of a noob... [01:57] mjbrancato: mmm, I guess you could call it one, but I doubt they do much development of their own [01:57] HewwoThere: usermod, probs [01:57] Okay. Would a symlink work? Or? [01:59] HewwoThere: no harm in trying, sounds pointlessly convoluted, though [01:59] HewwoThere I have been using symlinks for some of my stuff because I haven't been able to buy a 1tb SSD yet. I wouldn't recommend putting the entire home directory on a different hard drive because of the mounts might not always mount [01:59] Well. Hm [01:59] But you should try it [01:59] I use symlinks all the time [01:59] I have 4x 1TB SSD's on a dedi I just bought and not sure [01:59] and for the other hard drive you can just do a fstab mount === justinS_ is now known as jhsimpson [02:20] kodi [02:20] #ubuntu === pat_ is now known as Guest86670 [02:25] Stephan36: do you need some help?

[02:31] nicomachus: Running [02:31] Nikesh: when it's done, show me 'ls -lh /boot' again [02:31] i also tried specifying libmp3lame0 (as it appears in apt) [02:31] @veebull shoot, I'll give it a go, not too much vagrant experience though [02:32] toeshred: don't you need avconv -i file.wav -acodec libmp3lame file.mp3 ? [02:32] SchrodingersScat: I'll give that a try [02:32] toeshred: I thought that - before the -i were attributed to the -i file? [02:33] anthonyb92: Basically I'm trying to use vagrant to install the VM from http://datasciencetoolbox.org/ [02:33] I've got the VagrantFile setup, and the box gets installed okay... [02:33] SchrodingersScat: I think that fixed it, thanks. [02:33] nicomachus: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11880646/ [02:33] but it complains about the permissions on the ssh private key file [02:34] toeshred: so my understanding is that you were telling avconv that the wav file was REALLY an mp3, which probably got confusing when it was actually still a wav. good luck, have fun. [02:34] and neither vagrant, nor I (using sudo) can change the permissions to 0600 as it wants [02:34] ok, one sec Nikesh. That's progress. [02:34] insecure permissions = unable to use 'vagrant ssh' to connect to the box. [02:35] ok, gimme a sec, let me check it out [02:35] nicomachus: Thanks! [02:35] Nikesh: now type 'update-initramfs -vu -k all' [02:36] nicomachus: "update-initramfs is disabled since running on read-only media" [02:36] veebull: are you logging into the box as the user vagrant? [02:37] aren't you chroot? [02:37] Nikesh: ^ [02:37] nicomachus: I see, sorry I misunderstood the first question.

[03:09] I know how to backup the databases, but I'm just wondering how I can make a bash script? If it expects my password? [03:10] Kali_Yug1: you may try removing them from the GUI under system settings -> Software & Updates -> Other Software [03:10] either prompt for the pass or store it in plaintext [03:11] in a cof file [03:11] conf* [03:11] hmm [03:11] veebull: if your ssh configs are default/sane then the only thing I can think of is permissions in and of your ~/.ssh directory.

Anybody have any ideas? [04:16] Could the problem be that I deleted a partition that FStab was configured to mount? [04:16] Rocketeer99: have you looked into Ubuntu Touch? [04:16] Rocketeer99, and with your onscreen keyboard? [04:16] nicomchus: Ubuntu touch is really immature for keyboard and mouse [04:16] wheresmypaaants, good find, most likely yes?

[04:20] is the card shot? [04:20] OerHeks: Onboard works to sort in the dash, but the workflow there is open onboard, click the dash, type on the onscreen keyboard, click the app or file I wanted, then close onboard [04:20] quint: i think that's a question for ##hardware [04:21] And there's no way to scroll the filters on the side [04:21] aeon-ltd, i'll check with those fellows then, thanks [04:23] Rocketeer99, sounds like it needs fixing, file a bugreport?

[04:33] I saw that and tried it - fn f6 doesn't work [04:34] Regular F6 brightens my screen a bit [04:34] nicomachus, Heh, maybe so, I was trying to figure out where that is. [04:34] I had to google it [04:35] dunno why it would give that dialog box though [04:35] ravikanth, You catch that [04:35] I could write a script to disable the touchpad and set it to a custom keyboard shortcut, but I was hoping to find an autodetect for turning the screen around [04:35] zlinux: you would lose space if you later installed something with a bunch of dependencies normally in ubuntu-desktop, that's all I can think of. === Hardtail_ is now known as Hardtail [04:38] bubbasaures, I did not understand nicomachus [04:38] ravikanth: did you select english as the language for the install? [04:38] nicomachus: yes [04:38] SchrodingersScat: if I need KDE, i better use Kubuntu? [04:39] ravikanth: In American English, kolkata is spelled "Calcutta". So it may not be recognizing kolkata as a city. [04:40] nicomachus: I chose it from the map and it showed us as kolkata [04:40] ah, ok. [04:40] OerHeks: I was thinking somthing like an acpi event detection triggering various activities like disable keyboard/touchpad [04:41] nicomachus: I don't even know what to search for in google ! [04:41] Strange error [04:42] Rocketeer99, i am not sure this whole tread is the same model > http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2193327 but there are a lot of scripts on it about the same issue, and on page #2 answer 15 this guy mentioned hanging it on a ACPI event [04:42] hi [04:43] ravikanth, Does it show this with a click anywhere else? How about typing Calcutta [04:44] bubbasaures: I havent tried clicking anywhere else. Let me try that [04:45] OerHecks: That's a very cool thread, I'll look into the things they recommended [04:45] bubbasaures: he says he didn't type kolkata, it auto-filled when he clicked the map. [04:45] Thanks so much for finding that [04:46] nicomachus, We see the weirdest stuff here is all I'll say. ;) [04:47] Rocketeer99, somewhere they mention github / spin >> https://github.com/wdbm/spin [04:47] might be the tool you are looking for [04:47] bubbasaures: were you here for the 347616 line paste?

But this one is for configuring the network. I wanted the other one, where we can specify the proxy. The one that has the airplane mode on/off button on it's top right corner. [04:56] ok, neo1691, you can access that from the Dash with 'network', but I'm not sure about from the terminal. [04:56] nicomachus: yes. I am using bspwm instead of unity .

[05:02] nm-applet says that "Wifi is not enabed" and right click and "Enable Wifi" doesn't do anything. If I really disable Wifi from hardware switch it says "Wifi has been disabled with hardware button." [05:02] The card is Ralink RT5390 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe and inxi says that it uses driver rt2800pci. It has worked always before out of the box and currently works on Windows 10 (dualbooted) without issues. Any suggestions? [05:04] Mikaela: try 'sudo ifconfig wlan0 up' [05:04] wlan0 obviously being your card... which may be a different number [05:04] nicomachus: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill [05:06] Mikaela: if you turn that switch off and run 'rfkill list' does it show hard block as on? [05:06] s/on/yes [05:07] nicomachus: the second device becomes hard blocked in addition to soft blocked http://sprunge.us/EICL [05:07] well at least it's not a defective switch. [05:07] I think if it was defective, Windows would also have issues [05:08] well, defective in being read by 15.04. [05:08] oh, I see [05:08] but it's not. try 'rfkill unblock wifi' instead of all [05:09] nothing changes [05:09] ok. This blog post: http://pkadetiloye.blogspot.com/2010/11/ubuntu-wireless-disabled-siocsifflags.html [05:09] says to delete /dev/rfkill and then reboot to regenerate it. [05:10] trying [05:13] is not able to switch proxy without logging out of bspwm :( [05:13] isn't that way to send statuses on irc is /say? [05:13] nicomachus: situation didn't change and I forgot to say earlier that the hardware button (combined to f12 and requires fn) shows red light which means that WLAN is blocked with it (not in this case) or that there is driver issue (if I understand it correctly) [05:15] Mikaela: you ran 'sudo rm /dev/rfkill' and then rebooted, but no change? [05:15] nicomachus: yes, you didn't see disconnect at IRC, because I ssh to remote shell [05:17] Mikaela: there should be an rfkill toggle in the bios somewhere as well that may get it. [05:18] nicomachus: I have never seen one and if there was one, I don't think Windows would work. I booted it after installing Ubuntu MATE and getting this issue to see that it works on that side. [05:18] I can go to check just in case though [05:19] other than that, you can try blacklisting the hp driver. [05:20] So I found this:https://forum.manjaro.org/index.php?topic=9671.0 and I have a question. Is there any way I can trigger scripts on ACPI events if I'm not on 15.04 with systemd [05:20] Second post is the relevant one [05:21] Nothing relevant to WLAN or rfkill in BIOS that I can see. What is the hp driver called as, just hp? nicomachus === LucidDreamZzZz is now known as LucidDreamZ === LucidDreamZ is now known as LucidDreamZz === LucidDreamZz is now known as LucidDreamZ [05:22] I recently upgraded to 15.10 and now mplayer seems to cause a kernel panic / freeze after playing for 15 minutes to an hour.

[05:35] This may be a stupid question, but does anyone know how I could pipe my bash prompt into something every time it's displayed? [05:36] just what you type or the output? [05:36] The prompt itself. [05:36] The PS1 variable in your bashrc. [05:36] type history in bash... is that what you want? [05:37] No. You know the prompt? The default one is like "[user@host] ~ " [05:37] I want to pipe that into lolcat, so it looks pretty. xD [05:38] i don't know how to do it automaticially [05:39] Yeah, the only thing I know about the prompt is how to change it with PS1.

[07:39] hi all [07:40] Appropriate time-of-day greetings & Welcome [07:40] ObrienDave, greetings, human [07:40] hello [07:40] the thing is rather complicated (for me). So [07:40] LOL was going to call you bot ;P but, i won't go there ;P [07:40] can I ask a question... I have Ubuntu, then I used Gnome-ubuntu, after press key 'Super', I can se all started windows, how can I do it in Ubuntu with Unity ? [07:41] madghost, you'd have to change the keybinding. doing so means you'd need to reassign or lose the present "Super" setting which invokes the ubuntu dash [07:42] Super + W [07:42] or hold Super key to see a brief help page [07:42] I have 2 hdd's. one contains win7, the other (which BIOS boots) has a sda1 swap -- sda2 a linuxOS -- sda3 linuxdata -- sda4 a linuxOS [07:42] OerHeks: wow!!! so easy! thank you! [07:44] sda4 was installed after sda2, which had grub2 in place. sda4 has CentOS on it, and it has grub1, it seems. but my easyBCD, tho pointing to sda2 (which should ahve the grub2) does always show the grub screen of CentOS install :( [07:44] lquidfire, have you looked into grub-customizer? [07:45] i tried grub-update, grub install, and everything i could think of, and it says it generates grub2 fine and all, showing all the required menu entries, but when i reboot, it wont show it, but CentOS's grub [07:45] no, never heard of [07:46] both linux installs i left the grub install as default, so i assume they both isntalled it to the drive's MBR [07:46] for one thing, in EasyBCD i cannot point to that, but only to partitions. But when i do that, i end up with CentOS's grub menu [07:47] in case you're interested: https://launchpad.net/~danielrichter2007/+archive/ubuntu/grub-customizer [07:47] im just confused as to how this works [07:47] thank you :) [07:48] can't guarantee it will help your situation. but worth a look-see [07:51] ill give it a shot, ty :) [07:55] hey guys, any ideas about how to remove this? http://s29.postimg.org/81ranksvr/xchat.jpg After installing xchat that "notification" showed up there, and it's always there even when xchat is closed (and systray icon option is disabled as well..).

[10:01] BrazenBraden:What's the difference between Cinnamon and MATE? [10:02] maelknotreek, dunno. havent used MATE. Used to use Mint with cinnamon before switching to Ubuntu and I liked cinnamon there so replaced unity with it (old habits die hard) [10:02] BrazenBraden:I used to use Gnome2 in Ubuntu 5.10 so I use MATE because old habbits die hard [10:03] BrazenBraden:I think Cinnamon might be another fork of Gnome 2 similar to MATE, so I need to check it out [10:03] rory:How was your day? [10:03] maelknotreek, from what I have read, MATE uses gnome2 and cinnamon gnome3 [10:04] maelknotreek, and gnome3 doesnt do compiz so cant use those settings to handle the screen edge [10:04] BrazenBraden:Your question would probably be best to ask in the Cinnamon channel, as there are probably more people familiar with it there [10:05] BrazenBraden:Oh it's compiz? [10:05] BrazenBraden:You can just tweak Compiz settings I think [10:05] maelknotreek, ok.. is that just #cinnamon? I couldnt find the channel name with a google [10:05] BrazenBraden:IDK [10:05] maelknotreek, no compiz [10:05] maelknotreek, compiz and cinnamon not compatible [10:05] BrazenBraden:Oh right, got confused when you started talking about Compiz for some reason [10:06] BrazenBraden:I'm not familiar with Cinnamon's WM, I didn't even know it was based on Gnome 3 sorry [10:06] rory:hello [10:06] rory:annyeoung hasseyo [10:07] maelknotreek, after copious googling, i found screen edge settings in compiz settings. further digging showed no compiz with cinnamon so that idea faded [10:07] maelknotreek, tis a pickle [10:07] BrazenBraden:lol [10:13] BrazenBraden:Just go into Cinnamon settings? [10:13] BrazenBraden:I'm sure there's a tweak there somewhere [10:15] maelknotreek, nada :( installed the Ubuntu Tweak tool and other such things. no cigar. [10:15] Does anyone know how I disable the alt short cut for unity? Its not in the shortcuts section of the settings [10:15] BrazenBraden:Ubuntu Tweak Tool is probably for Unity [10:16] maelknotreek: Unity based of gnome3 yes? [10:16] BrazenBraden:I think it's a shell for Gnome 3 [10:17] maelknotreek, right.. would explain why some of the tweak settings stick for me [10:17] BrazenBraden:Maybe Gnome 3 doesn't have the customisability you're looking for [10:17] BrazenBraden:Try #gnome [10:17] BrazenBraden:You could switch to MATE, which I think is similar to Cinnamon [10:17] maelknotreek, will do [10:18] maelknotreek, will give it a dabble too [10:19] rory: [10:19] Hi, I started a forum ( http://syntaxcore.com ) for cracking/hacking/linux etc, you can join and help us grow a community if you want .

Don't fight here :) [10:38] hello everybody... I've got a question, I'm running ubuntu 14.04 how to restore a direcotry with dejadup? [10:39] lolek: click restore [10:40] lolek: http://askubuntu.com/questions/181272/is-it-possible-to-restore-only-one-directory-with-the-backup-utility [10:41] histo: I don't have this menu option: Click File ▸ Restore Missing Files… [10:43] i realize this might pertain to specific app but why would 1 out of 3 apps in the bundle not work with ld.so,conf path - one of them seems to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH only [10:49] win 7 [10:49] Hey there , I was trying to set quota on my ubuntu , so i think i screwed when i ran mount here and there , now when i restart and try to login , it logins and again goes to the same login screen , I can login through consoles like ctrl alt f1 or f2 [10:51] karthik: check if something in the users home is owned by root:root by running "ls -al" in tty in the user home [10:52] k1l_: everythg is owned by root root [10:52] karthik: what name is the user? [10:53] k1l_: celestial [10:53] can you pastebin the fstab? [10:53] Hi, what does 'ffffffffffffff' mean in the output of `taskset -p 123` .... ex: 'pid 123's current affinity mask: ffffffffffffff' [10:53] k1l_: i dont have net access to it [10:54] karthik: ok, what did you change in regards to fstab then?

[10:57] could be lots of reasons [10:57] karthik: i am not familiar with quota there, sorry [10:57] k1l_: but my mount should be / i guess [10:58] DeaDSouL_ some other resource other than processor ? [10:59] DeaDSouL_ just because you have lots of cores does not mean the apps can use them all concurrently. [11:01] quick question: what happened to the libpam-cracklib package? I don't see it in the repos for 14.04.

[11:07] notebox: ubuntu doesnt use that debian sheme [11:07] notebox: https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList [11:07] notebox: this is for ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu [11:07] ah okay, thanks [11:10] I love how the package upgrade installs random stuff that then freezes my machine at a random reboot [11:11] Cheery: Usually it's not random [11:12] Cheery: Unless you have a specific example [11:12] it was deja-cups this time [11:12] sure it's all deterministic to install stuff I'm not interested about and not needing [11:13] Cheery: Then, remove deja-cups? [11:13] Ubuntu killed the wireless adapter in my laptop :( [11:13] Cheery: so a package you have installed named it as depency so it got installed? [11:14] nah. came along with a distribution upgrade [11:14] not even Windows see the wireless adapter anymore :( [11:14] Cheery: apt-get dist-upgrade or do-release-upgrade? [11:14] do-release-upgrade [11:14] no wifi nothing :( [11:15] Cheery: since versions do change on a upgrade there might change the depencies too [11:15] oh it purged from my desktop just fine [11:15] but I'm pissed that it was there in the first place. [11:15] ManicPanic: Have you checked it is enabled in the BIOS [11:16] fcefan00: how is that possible ? [11:17] ManicPanic: How to check in BIOS or how is it posible that an update disables the adapter? [11:18] fcefan00: how to check in BIOS [11:19] how to i install java jdk on ubunto 13.04 offline [11:19] fcefan00: okay i will Google how to check BIOS for wireless adapter [11:20] Ghadir_Turkey_Co: 13.04 is EOL already. [11:20] !13.04 | Ghadir_Turkey_Co [11:20] Ghadir_Turkey_Co: Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) was the 18th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on January 27, 2014. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/raring [11:21] so from everything I've been reading, it's just not possible to get channel 13 working in ubuntu? [11:21] (this is 802.11 wifi) [11:21] i tryiin more 100 to isstall it [11:21] ManicPanic: Reboot, than look what button gets you in the BIOS (F9, ESC...) [11:21] ManicPanic: On my Thinkpad it is first "Enter" and the "F1" for example [11:22] pyvpx: Works fine here. [11:22] bekks: what chipset? [11:22] pyvpx: BCM4318. [11:23] fcefan00: ok i will reboot and see if i can find the wireless adapter in it [11:23] running 14 LTS?? [11:23] pyvpx: I never had issues with channels when using the b43 driver instead of the wl. [11:23] pyvpx: sure. [11:24] ManicPanic: it could be under security-->I/O [11:24] ManicPanic: could be tricky to find the right menu [11:26] bekks: how do you set the country code? I know of crda in /etc/defaults and /etc/environment [11:26] setting it there, in addition to forcing it with a iw reg set [11:26] pyvpx: I never needed to. [11:26] doesn't seem to help. it get's set. and everything claims to support/see channel 13 [11:27] but it doesn.t none of the three SSIDs on ch. 13 are seen. [11:27] to be fair, thi sis a US macbook air. but OS X has no problem seeing channel 13.

All i found is these settings for wireless adapter. BUILT_IN DEVICE OPTIONS: Wireless Button State (ENABLED), Embeded WLAN Device: (ENABLED), Embedded Bluetooth Device: (ENABLED), Network Interface Controller[LAN]: (ENABLED), LAN/WLAN Switching: (ENABLED) [11:50] but Ubuntu and Windows still dont see the wireless adapter :( [11:51] ManicPanic: might be hardware failure if both OS dont see it. [11:51] k1l_: but why is BIOS showing (ENABLED) ? [11:52] ManicPanic: you can switch the traffic light to green, but if the car is broken that will not help. [11:52] k1l_: could Ubuntu Wireless driver somehow corrupt the wireless adapter ? [11:53] ManicPanic: no. [11:53] Hi All. I've been happily using Ubuntu 14.04 for several weeks, and applying the updates on a daily basis. But now, I seemed to be loosing the ability to resize windows. It works for a while if I restart the OS, but then shortly after it fails. I've gone into compiz settings manager, and disabled then re-anabled window resizing, but it didn't make a different. Does anyone know how this could happen? Happens with mouse and trackpa [11:54] k1l_: but how to test if it is hardware failure. It was working perfect yesterday, no warnings of failure [11:55] ManicPanic: see if the cables are fine, see if its clipped properly into the port, etc etc. if windows cant use it too, that is a sign for hardware issue. maybe a power shortage or such. [11:55] ManicPanic: see if there is a hardware switch to turn the wifi off. to be sure [11:56] ManicPanic: OK. Have you checked the adapter in terminal or only on the GUI? [11:56] k1l_: yes its on, bluetooth and wifi use same switch [11:57] fcefan00: lspci , dont list it either [11:57] hi guys, my vserver is recently restarting once in a while by itself. I always have to restart some services manually because of that. How can I found out what made the system to reboot? [11:58] ManicPanic: That sounds no good. What Notebook do you have? [11:59] hi i need help about libreoffice how i can change look and feel of it ? [12:00] fcefan00: when i installed Ubuntu i chose the driver from "Additional Drivers" section for the wireless adapter. Wifi was working fine. Then i read somewhere on a site to install propietary drivers. I installed the propietary ones from Synaptic. After that it broken the wireless adapter [12:01] fcefan00: Hp Compaq 615 [12:04] Hm, if Ubuntu cannot see the adapter at all. It's unlikely there is a chance to activate it from within Ubuntu. And if the Wifi is not working in Windows as well since than it looks like a hardware failure [12:05] Hi! Is AMD Catalyst supposed to work with virtual terminals? I am using Ubuntu 15.04 with Catalyst 15.20 and a Radeon R9 285, but the VT screens are black. I also have issues with the splash screen locking up when asking for the password (so I use text boot only), and a few errors regarding AIGLX in Xorg.0.log but these do not seem to affect the OpenGL performance. [12:05] ManicPanic: I guess you already googled for the issue? [12:06] fcefan00: ok, i guess it is. I really need wifi. Since ethernet dont want to work on the laptop. I got only dialup connection now [12:07] ManicPanic: You could try to reset the BIOS. [12:07] fcefan00: is that the "Restore factory defaults" option ? [12:08] Yes [12:08] hello [12:08] fcefan00: ok i will try that [12:09] You could also try first to shutdown and remove the battery [12:10] it is my fistday to play ubuntu [12:13] hello === Vincent is now known as Guest50256 [12:14] it is so hard [12:15] zyf: just get used to it. it was hard the first day on windows, too :) [12:15] year [12:19] why there is no switch the language on the main site - ubuntu.com and translation in the languages of other countries? [12:24] I've created an apt repo and set the architecture to amd64. I have added "deb file:///home/vagrant/repository/tinamou/universe to sources.list" But when I run apt-get update I get the error "Failed to fetch file:/home/vagrant/repository/dists/tinamou/universe/binary-i386/Packages" [12:24] fcefan00: you saved me from buying a new wireless adapter! The BIOS reset worked :) . lspci shows " Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01) " YAY! [12:25] Does anyone know how to set it to look in /univers/binary-amd64/Packages? [12:25] ManicPanic: Yeah! Cool :) [12:26] notebox: you can't serve from a file:/ URL to apt, i think it needs pure http. you may have to set up a web browser to serve content from there [12:26] ManicPanic: Has Ubuntu also loaded the right kernel module? [12:26] Ahh okay, I think that will be the next error after this one [12:26] fcefan00: i think the problem was caused, because i installed 2 drivers on top of each other [12:27] I'll push the repo to s3 and see if that helps [12:27] ManicPanic: Another solution could have been to shutdown and remove the battery. Otherwise a notebook is never really off and an adapter could stay in a "hang" state [12:28] If the open source driver is working fine, i would not replace it next time ;) [12:28] fcefan00: i dont know. Its showing in "Additional Drivers" as "This device is not working." Then it list a checkbox to install a linux driver [12:29] fcefan00: but when i check the box for the Ubuntu choice of driver it unselects it :/ [12:30] hi [12:30] Ahoy DexterF [12:30] ubuntu 15.04 live, I need to insatall wine but apt keeps telling me that it depends on wine1.6-386 which is not available [12:30] Welcome, weezel. [12:30] any way around that? [12:31] fcefan00: i am trying to choose the opensource driver, but its not Applying it [12:31] using terminal to install wine or Software Insatller? [12:31] ManicPanic: Then go with the proprietary driver as long as it is working [12:32] DexterF, using Software Installer u can install normaly, i think [12:32] grantd: cli [12:33] grantd: same with software center [12:33] DexterF http://askubuntu.com/questions/624846/how-can-i-install-wine-in-15-04-when-there-are-unmet-dependencies [12:33] Hi, I have a question regarding group permissions. If for example, a directory is owned by group ABC. User ABC is part of group XYZ. Will a user who is part of XYZ group be able to write to this directory? [12:34] fcefan00: the checkboxed choice says " Using Broadcom 802.11 Linux STA wireless driver source from bcmwl-kernel-source(proprietary)" , but when i check it and press apply it wont apply [12:36] kkinetic: skimmed that, so short answer is "broken, tough luck"? [12:37] bpositive, witch group u mean ? ABC ? [12:37] Hiyas all [12:37] ManicPanic: Try this http://askubuntu.com/questions/455798/cannot-apply-changes-in-software-updatesadditional-drivers [12:37] Hi [12:37] DexterF I belive it could be resolved if you update your sources. [12:38] grantd: the user who wants to write to that directory is part of the parent group XYZ [12:38] if he remove wine1.6, add repository and install 1.7 will be good [12:38] grantd: will he be able to write to the directory owned by the group ABC? [12:39] bpositive, if u add this use in ABC group y [12:39] fcefan00: i will do. Thanks for all the help :) [12:39] no, the user is only part of XYZ group [12:39] bpositive, or if you give permission to all for change this group [12:40] ManicPanic: Pleasure :) [12:40] ok, so changing the permissions for 'others' is the only way [12:40] yeah [12:40] alright [12:41] grantd: thank you for confirming [12:42] Anyone experienced installing ubuntu 14.04 to a macbook powerpc new world from hd? [12:52] How do i distinguish between two usb drives? Which one is sdb and which is sda? [12:52] Or which command lists all my drives? [12:53] unplug. check. plug, check [12:53] Spodermen_sweg: lsusb [12:53] fdisk -l [12:54] Spodermen_sweg: Plug the stick and run "dmesg | tail". This should you show what the device name the usb drive got [12:55] Thank you all [12:57] I need to learn linux/unix, which resources are beginner friendly and explain the history of these systems? [12:58] spodermen_sweg: what is your experience so far? what OSes did you try/own already? [13:01] Spodermen_sweg: Look for a book from O'Reilly. They used to be one of the best resources [13:01] I come from windows and use ubuntu as well as windows(only when I need it). My goal is to know enough to handle a server at some point [13:01] O'reilly should have something, yeah [13:01] On 14.04.2 still. When I open a conversation with Empathy it starts scrolled to the *top* of its log of the last few messages. My screen's pretty small, so I can't see my own messages that way and need to scroll down manually. I'd rather not have to, how to fix? [13:02] Or look here https://debian-handbook.info/browse/stable/ [13:02] If you like to start with Debian [13:03] Spodermen_sweg: I would generally recommend Centos and Debian/Ubuntu as free server Linux [13:03] Ok, thanks guys [13:03] Spodermen_sweg: Install Virtual Box and you can try everything in a VM [13:03] or use KVM and virt-manager [13:04] you may want to learn terminal basics (if you haven't already) so you can configure/tune a server across the network [13:04] or just in case you accidentally broke something [13:06] Would any of these resources explain apt,kernels,shells and all that confusing wizard-talk? [13:07] well apt-get is a common software package management tool, shell is what you have in almost any OS (well windows has powershell but i think that doesn't count :p) [13:08] and what do you mean with wizardtalk? [13:08] I just used unetbootin without formatting and received a boot error... is it because I didnt format? [13:10] Spodermen_sweg [13:10] Spodermen_sweg [13:10] Spodermen_sweg [13:10] Spodermen_sweg: I prefer http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ [13:11] anyways you can install Linux in Virtual Box for testing, which is more flexible [13:11] Why? [13:11] fcefan00: but that does not help you learn the basics without just trying something and hope for the best [13:11] Spodermen_sweg: It's easy to use. You're on Windows, right? [13:11] So I could just get any linux iso and run it in there? [13:12] Im on ubuntu [13:12] Yes [13:12] Ubuntu, Oh that grub2 makes it difficult [13:12] That sounds increbidly useful and fun [13:12] yes, you can also boot from a live usb (if your machine supports it) with a linux OS installed [13:13] Grub4dos will help on a USB stick === alex__ is now known as Amoz [13:14] Ok, so if I want to make a liveusb of ubuntu gto [13:14] From* ubuntu.... [13:14] Spodermen_sweg: On Ubuntu you can use the "Disks" Menu instead of UNetbootin, Download an ISO file of choice, choose the usb drive and select "Restore Image" [13:14] Which tool? Startup disk creator/unet/other? [13:15] Would it be best to format first? [13:16] And change the (file system?) To fat32/whatever? [13:16] unetbootin changes the grub/syslinux settings. [13:16] What's a good firefox-based x64 build? [13:16] on windows, you can use rufus, on linux, you can use dd but you need to be careful with dd [13:16] Spodermen_sweg: if you want to make a ubuntu.iso bootable on a usb drive just "dd" it to the drive [13:16] dd? [13:16] dd is a command line tool [13:17] you know how to use a terminal? [13:17] Spodermen_sweg: Look here please https://www.maketecheasier.com/backup-hard-drive-gnome-disk-utility/ [13:17] Normally I use HP USB format and format the USB stick and then install Grub4DOS and use the ISO directly [13:17] Spodermen_sweg: http://askubuntu.com/a/377561/31260 [13:17] I am so unbelievably confused [13:18] Spodermen_sweg: what is your goal? [13:18] Spodermen_sweg: What is send you is an onboard tool and really easy to use. You don't need any third party tool [13:18] Guys how to make grub menu appear by default [13:18] ? [13:19] you can create a usb live distro on windows very easy with rufus, but this is a linux irc so i don't know if i should give you instructions here for windows [13:19] silenced, you need to define timeout (grub not grub2) [13:19] Spodermen_sweg left. [13:20] brothersome: How to do so ?

I have taken a dd of it after its been unlocked, and to verifiy that the contents has not changed since the dd being converted to a forensic format, I need to ensure the md5 hash matches what I have in my forensic software [14:38] normally I dont have an issue with this process, but this one is playing up and so I would normally do md5 /dev/disk3 in terminal on the mac after mounting the dd file [14:40] I doubt dd would care whether you unlocked it or not [14:40] the "unlocking" is not likely on the block level [14:40] can somebody help me please?

[14:47] petrvs, I see. [14:47] ridders24: what command, again? [14:47] stanreg: yes, you wouldn't want to use the package itself [14:47] they didn't get it from thin air, is all [14:47] Understood.

[14:53] but not both. [14:54] matthias__ yes [14:54] petrvs: this is the moste stable driver I have found. [14:55] drmagoo: you try nouveau yet? :) [14:55] matthias__ as a "test" you try not verifying the chain. Don't run like that normally though. [14:55] rtreleaven: a ssl certificate is too expensive for me [14:56] rtreleaven: how should i run it then? [14:56] I would have to google that. [14:56] but I will leave that to you.

[15:19] Spodermen_sweg: pretty much, yup [15:19] I vote yes [15:19] Ok [15:20] is there a specific filesystem that I should use for liveUSB? Currently Fat32 [15:20] TJ-: I read the link, but you seem to be unable to understand my concern [15:21] Spodermen_sweg: it doesnt matter. the live usb creation thing will format it anyway [15:21] TJ-: neither do I want some automated update system nor does it solve the problem of a manual reboot [15:21] Ok, great [15:21] Spodermen_sweg, Fat32 is good for a live CD, when writing stuff use ext4 [15:21] Spodermen_sweg: depends on the application [15:21] Ok [15:22] kontoo: You asked for the 'best' way - for a single server that is the 'best' way. If you're worried about regressions/downtime then use a staging server and test on that first, and only then replicate the changes on the production server. [15:22] Spodermen_sweg: honestly. use the usb-creator-gtk or the the terminal command "dd" like i showed in the link. you are making it harder than it is [15:22] tgm4883: isn't there a mailing list just for critical remote exploits? [15:23] TJ-: hm some misunderstanding here, "best way to stay up to date with security fixes" = get informed, not to install them asap [15:23] kontoo: For USNs see http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ [15:23] kontoo: you could subscribe to USN, but I don't think it's only remote exploits [15:24] damn it [15:24] !language [15:24] The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [15:24] ok? [15:25] kontoo: if you look at usn you will see there is a lot of security updates every day. so it doesnt matter if its just remote exploits you will need to run the updates anyway. [15:25] just install 15.04/systemD, no need to reboot the kernel after update [15:25] OerHeks: how come? [15:26] OerHeks: no reboot kernel updates are in 15.04?

[15:27] I just made a netboot install of 14.04, it boots fine but only in command line. Did it not install the whole graphical stack? What commands can I use to check that? [15:28] oops, this is a kernel 4x.x feature :-( [15:28] OerHeks: yea that's what I read too :( [15:28] k1l: the difference between some local app having bugs and a remote exploit in the web server / kernel should be obvious [15:29] I have a much bigger time frame to schedule the update in the former case [15:30] kontoo: proper security practices would dictate that you make the decision regarding specific patches, hence why there is USN with all of the security updates [15:31] kontoo: you as in the administrator of the server. It shouldn't be up to the repo admins nor the security team [15:33] tgm4883: I think I'll stick to the email notification of my server, maybe improving it like the guy here recommends: https://library.nagios.com/library/techtips/264-tech-tip-monitoring-critical-debian-and-ubuntu-updates-with-nagios [15:33] advantage is I don't get spammed with security notifications for applications I don't have installed [15:34] I have a problem with my nvidia card.

There is always the option to switch to a Windows server [15:36] huehueuheu [15:36] kontoo: I'm not sure why you think switching to a windows server would help in security or patch application, but I applaud you for your comedy [15:37] Nothing wrong with a Windows Server ...

[15:42] TJ-: like with `script`? [15:44] anyone know what might cause my desktop to repeat like this http://nsab.us/public/desktop.png ? [15:44] Pici: Almost, but I need to capture the silent keys too, such as Ctrl+? and so forth [15:44] I've heard people complaining about this on vmware and vmtools solved it but it did not for me, I also heard people solve it by upgrading the kernel which I did with no effect === FENNVILLE is now known as FENNVILLE_TECH_S [15:49] Pici: It looks like 'script' might be useful *if* I can separate the typed from the generated escape sequences [15:49] FXMULDER : CHECK YOUR WORKSPACES IN SETTINGS IF YOUR STILL HAVING YOUR SCREEN ISSUE [15:50] Hey everyone. Looks like I'm having some trouble removing old kernels from my system. I could use some help if anyone has a minute or two to spare. [15:50] My boot parttion is full and trying to remove an old kernel via "apt-get purge" or "apt-get autoremove" shows "E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f." [15:50] the integration of amazon into ubuntu desktop is absolutely retarded [15:51] I don't know what that guy was thinking [15:51] Skunkwaffle: ok, try to remove the vmlinuz and initrd file manually for a couple old kernsl [15:51] Skunkwaffle: then remove with apt-get purge [15:51] fxmulder: what guy [15:51] -f doesn't get it done either though [15:52] Skunkwaffle: what happens when you type -f install? [15:52] shuttleworth [15:53] lolz, fxmulder, those servers are long gone disabled. [15:54] Why chromium's weak dh fix still not in repos? Why no backport? It has been vulnerable since ages. https://weakdh.org/ [15:55] it may be something else now but ubuntu is still trying to sell me music CDs when I search for "settings" [15:55] I get "o apport report written because the error message indicates a disk full error" [15:55] TunaFish: https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1457173 [15:55] Launchpad bug 1457173 in Launchpad itself "Launchpad uses a weak Diffie-Hellman group for HTTPS" [Undecided,Fix released] [15:55] !adlens | fxmulder [15:56] fxmulder: To hide online search results in Ubuntu Unity, go to System Settings > Security and Privacy > Search and toggle the option off. [15:56] Sorry I was stupid before. I'm actually quite tech savvy and experienced with computers, but actually haven't used one for over two years due to a severe case of anxiety for various things. Thus, I'm kind of lost, and I have a really old version of Ubuntu - 11.10, I think - and I get an error when I try to upgrade it. Do I have to install the new version from scratch? [15:56] Skunkwaffle: delete the unused kernels [15:56] just delete the files from /boot ? [15:56] Skunkwaffle: yeah [15:57] Kratix, thats the easiest yes === corey84__ is now known as Corey84 [15:57] Kratix, that is long end of life [15:57] Skunkwaffle: just delete a couple of them so you have enough space to run apt-get [15:57] petrvs, That's a different issue, I am talking about the chromium package. [15:57] Skunkwaffle: make sure you don't delete ALL of them! [15:57] Is there anything else I need to know before I do this? Usually I remove them via apt-get so I don't screw anything up [15:57] ah, no no, just the older ones [15:57] Skunkwaffle: type uname -r , delete the ones that you dont want [15:57] The current chromium package is still vulnerable to logjam, ff is not. [15:58] !eolupgrades | Kratix [15:58] Kratix: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [15:58] ok [15:58] I know. So I have to find somewhere to burn a new CD and all that, then? [15:58] hello [15:58] Kratix, a usb stick [15:58] Kratix: a fresh install would be faster and Ubuntu no longer fits on a CD [15:58] whats the best virtual machine for Ubuntu server 15.04... i would like to run a vm remotely...does virtualbox have a feature where i can stream the vm from ubuntu server 15.04 or is there a better vm program that can do that? [15:58] i got directory where is files and subdirectorys, i want to make a link where files that i move to the linkpoint dont go to original directory [15:58] is there any way [15:59] fellayaboy, no best, try what suits you [15:59] Of course, I forgot... Two years is a long time to not use a computer... [15:59] fellayaboy: I use KVM and virt-manager [15:59] Thanks, anyway. I'll look at that link. [15:59] symlink works well, but then files what i put on linked point goes to the original directory [15:59] i dont want that [15:59] anttal: where else would they go? [16:00] Kratix: Lubuntu does fits on a CD I believe, if this is a low resource machine try Lubuntu or Xubuntu [16:00] TunaFish, it is fixed sofar >> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/KnowledgeBase/LogJam [16:00] EriC^^ like thats my question, symlink dont work at this usage [16:00] :) [16:01] anttal: yeah, it doesn't make sense [16:01] or can i make empty directory tree and then symlink only files? [16:01] is that just stupid [16:01] fellayaboy: virtualbox is the most straightforward, kvm is the most performant [16:01] fellayaboy: why do you want a vm, exactly? [16:02] OerHeks, it is fixed for server and openssl, server software, not for browser chromium [16:02] anttal: you can make a copy of the dir with cp -s i think, and it'll have symlinks as files [16:02] You'll get mitm'ed if you use chromium [16:02] not sure if the dirs will be symlinked too, maybe not [16:03] petrvs: +1 [16:03] TunaFish, chromium uses TLS libs, so it is not in chromium, it is in the libs [16:03] "can make relative symbolic links only in current directory" [16:03] why using virtual machines :) try containers the performance if much better [16:04] verb5: +1, but doesn't work with windows [16:04] anttal: use absolute paths [16:04] hello guys is there a sticky notes in linux? [16:04] cp -sr /path/to/dir /path/to/new/dir [16:04] TunaFish, or do you think chromium comes with its own tsl libs? [16:04] who cares about windows :D i use linux [16:04] anttal: cp -s is dumb like that [16:04] petrvs, i want to create a windows server 2012 r2 virtual machine...my question is there a client that will let me stream the vm from a server...i want to run this vm remotely..i want my ubuntu server 15.04 to stream it down to my Windows 7 client [16:04] baja: sticky notes? [16:05] yes [16:05] i need [16:05] hmm looks like that's working [16:05] Thanks [16:05] baja: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ubuntu+stick+notes+on+desktop [16:05] nicomachus: please don't.

[16:06] hahaha [16:06] that was fun [16:06] @nichomacus [16:07] that works, thanks <3 [16:07] np [16:09] EriC^^ btw if i now edit a file it goes to original file? :O [16:09] i guess openstack would be the best bet [16:10] anttal: if you edit a file, yeah [16:10] anttal: if you add stuff, or delete files from it, it won't go [16:11] EriC^^ well i think that is enough for me still [16:11] im building server enivroment so i need to look up every security holes lol === Abhishek__ is now known as Abhishek_ [16:11] :D [16:11] but i think i just chmod everything on 700 where u should not touch [16:12] Sorry if I'm being stupid, but should I use Clonezilla or something before installing it? [16:12] Kratix: just backup your stuff to another hdd or something then install [16:12] how [16:12] EriC^^ can i chown directory to ftp user and then give him 700 rights, that should be safe right? [16:13] baja 'how' ? [16:13] I don't have another HDD. Am I being stupid again? [16:13] do i start sticky notes [16:13] Kratix: no, you're not [16:13] at least i know im stupid lol === cyboman34 is now known as cyboman33 === kalen_not-here is now known as kalen [16:14] Then what do I back it up to? [16:14] Kratix: if you have a separate partition one for "/" one for "/home" you might be able to use the installer's partitioning tool to select the installation at "/" and use /home but not format it, look into it more to make sure [16:14] i cant see sticky notes and i have already downloaded [16:14] I have a problem with my nvidia card. I'm running two monitors of the same card and the problem is when I wake the system up. Only the left monitor comes back to life, the right one says that it doesnt get any input signal. I've tried to switch monitors and ports with out any diffrence in affect. The left monitor is the primary one. I need to restart the right monitor for the nvidia card to notice it and then sending it a signal. here is [16:14] Kratix: what does your partition table look like? type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [16:14] i need some spectacles :) [16:15] I forgot how to start the terminal. [16:15] Found it, sorry. [16:15] Kratix: ctrl+alt+t [16:15] EriC^^> can u tell me? [16:15] anttal: honestly i don't know much about security/ftp stuff [16:15] better read up on it and see what's the customary security practices [16:16] okay, thanks [16:16] Number Start End Size Type File system Flags [16:16] 1 1049kB 16.1GB 16.1GB primary ntfs diag [16:16] 2 16.1GB 16.2GB 105MB primary ntfs boot [16:16] 3 16.2GB 216GB 200GB primary ntfs [16:16] 4 216GB 640GB 424GB extended [16:16] 5 216GB 634GB 418GB logical ext4 [16:16] anttal: no problem [16:16] Kratix: use paste.ubuntu.com or type the command it should return a link to a pastebin already pasted [16:17] Okay, sorry. Do I have to do that now? [16:18] yeah, please do [16:18] Just installed ubuntu 15.04 on one hdd. I have windows 8.1 installed on a different hdd. When I turn PC on it goes straight to ubuntu and dont see an option in grub that would let me boot into windows. How can I fix this? [16:18] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11883394/ [16:18] ghost_: try sudo update-grub , does it pick up windows? [16:18] why is adduser by default not accepting capital letters? [16:19] Kratix: ok, looks like you have 200gb windows partition you can use [16:19] Kratix: type sudo du -sh /home [16:19] Hello, I recently upgraded to 15.04 and have very high CPU usage problems when using either Unity environment, or plasma. In the first case, compiz, and in the second case, plasmashell are using almost 100% of all CPU cores [16:20] But I dual boot. Won't that remove Windows? === crc32_soda_break is now known as crc32 [16:20] CryptoSiD: cause adduser is sort of complainy [16:20] CryptoSiD: why do you want to use a capital letter in a username? [16:20] Kratix: no, you'll just copy your data there temporarily, if you have the free space [16:20] what “lspci | grep -i vga” tells is: Radeon HD 8610G [16:21] Kratix: the du command should tell you how much space /home is using [16:21] which package should I install? [16:21] EriC^^ me [16:21] who i red who, not why, sorry [16:21] eueu: type sudo ubuntu-drivers devices , it should mention the recommended driver [16:21] well cause i like using SiD, instead of sid [16:21] hello i'm new to linux i'm running ubuntu mate, can someone please tell me how to create a keyboard shortcut to switch between languages?? [16:21] EriC^^: Here is the output. I don' [16:21] t see windows [16:21] http://pastebin.com/Ubf1HJie [16:21] CryptoSiD: adduser is Debian nonsense, useradd is the base app [16:21] i don't see why the default adduser.conf dont have the regex to accept capital letter in username [16:21] CryptoSiD: ok, well you can use sudo useradd -m [16:21] CryptoSiD: you can change it with usermod, though, after the fact [16:22] yeah but when ubuntu install, im forced to use sid [16:22] i cant add SiD [16:22] CryptoSiD: useradd lets you get away with almost anything, adduser won't [16:22] I want to be able to create SiD or whatever with capital letter in the installation:D [16:23] hi, when i type sudo apt-get upgrade i get this: [16:23] Les paquets suivants ont été conservés : [16:23] libxine2 libxine2-bin libxine2-ffmpeg libxine2-misc-plugins libxine2-plugins [16:23] libxine2-x vdr-plugin-vnsiserver [16:23] 0 mis à jour, 0 nouvellement installés, 0 à enlever et 7 non mis à jour.

[16:26] ) [16:26] thanks eric [16:26] k1l, yes [16:26] Kratix: need a sudo on there [16:26] Kratix: type sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt [16:27] Dro__: please show in a pastebin: "apt-cache policy libxine2" [16:27] Kratix: then type df -h /dev/sda3 [16:27] johnniewalker: np [16:27] k1l, http://paste.ubuntu.com/11883461/ [16:28] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/vspk [16:28] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11883464/ [16:28] ghost_: windows is installed in legacy mode, ubuntu is installed in uefi mode [16:29] ghost_: you have to reinstall ubuntu in legacy mode so you can boot both without switching back and forth in the bios between legacy and uefi [16:30] Dro__: ok, the PPA is causing that error. its not setup properly. i would suggest to remove that ppa with !ppa-purge [16:30] Kratix: ok, home is about 25gb, you have about 6gb free on the windows partition, if you can delete some stuff from windows or stuff you don't need on /home you can backup to there and reinstall easily [16:30] !ppa-purge [16:30] 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:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [16:30] Dro__: that will revert to version 1.2.4 which is original and not the version 1.2.6 from the ppa [16:30] EriC^^: How do you know if the reinstall is in legacy? [16:30] ghost_: cause windows is using a msdos partition table [16:31] k1l, the command must be sudo ppa-purge ppa:yavdr/unstable-vdr , right? [16:31] Kratix: if you want to see which files are taking the most space in windows or your home i'd recommend installing ncdu [16:31] Kratix: sudo apt-get install ncdu [16:31] Dro__: looks ok [16:32] then ncdu /home , and ncdu /mnt to look at windows [16:32] EriC^^: Sorry, I meant how do I reinstall so its in the same partition table? They are two separate HDD [16:33] ghost_: boot the usb in legacy mode, when you boot it make sure it's in legacy mode by running ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi , it should say the dir doesn't exist [16:33] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11883483/ === ronin is now known as roninn [16:34] Kratix: ok, nevermind, it's cause it's eol and you have to switch the sources list to download [16:34] Kratix: anyways, you can use du -h /home | sort -h [16:35] it should say the biggest files/dirs at the bottom [16:35] and du -h /mnt | sort -h for windows [16:35] k1l, the command is not correct :/ [16:36] anyone have an idea whats the ppa: format of this http://ppa.launchpad.net/yavdr/unstable-vdr/ubuntu/ ? [16:36] Dro__: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:yavdr/unstable-vdr [16:37] ghost_: make sure the bios is set to csm legacy enabled, and the usb is first in the list as legacy, if you get a boot options menu choose usb legacy or just usb if it says usb uefi [16:37] I think I have more than 6 GB of important stuff on /home. [16:37] Dro__: can you show the output of ppa-purge? [16:37] Kratix: try deleting stuff from windows then [16:37] k1l, its ok now, it was missing a letter :P thx BlueShark_ [16:37] Dro__: because ppa:yavdr/unstable-vdr is the right one [16:39] k1l, yes its right, i'm going to update & upgrade === BlueShark_ is now known as BlueShark [16:39] Didn't I have space on some other partitions? I feel quite sure that I had much more than 6 GB of free space... [16:39] k1l, everything is ok now, 0 not updated paquet, thank you! [16:40] How do I check if the firewall is somehow blocking the port forwarding setup I've created? I forwarded 8888 and tried accessing it via my IP, but it shows as the port is closed. [16:40] Disabled ufw, retested, no change. Flushed iptables with -F, no change. Any ideas? [16:42] Kratix: maybe the linux partition, it's about 400gb === corey84__ is now known as Corey84 [16:42] BlueShark: what's doing the forwarding, your linux box or NAT somewhere else on the network [16:42] (from Internet in) [16:42] Shall I use du again? [16:43] Kratix: nah its pretty obvious, cause home is only 25gb [16:43] teward: Not sure I understand the question. I did the config/updating in the router configuration page. [16:43] Kratix: do you have a 25gb usb ? [16:43] Kratix: you don't need a usb to install ubuntu, you could boot the .iso using grub and use any usb you have as the backup [16:44] I definitely don't have a 25GB USB. [16:44] Kratix: ok, well splitting the partition isn't really that recommended, as working with partitions you never know and it's preferable to backup first [16:45] Kratix: can you delete 19gb from windows? [16:46] Question: We assign permissions for user (owner), group, others and all. What is the difference of permissions for others and all? [16:46] Maybe. I actually don't know what's on there, as I haven't used it for the aforementioned two years plus... I'll look. [16:48] Now I can't even mount what I think is the Windows drive... Is that because of the terminal commands I did? [16:49] BlueShark: do you have anything listening on port 8888 on the target system? [16:49] Kratix: ok, check it out, if you absolutely can't you can always split the linux one and copy the stuff there, i don't recommend it without using a backup though [16:49] Kratix: it's already mounted at /mnt [16:49] BlueShark: (when NAT comes into play, you have to check all points to make sure everything forwards the way it should) [16:50] Maybe I'm using a wrong term. But I can't find the Windows files. [16:50] Kratix: type nautilus /mnt [16:59] I have a problem with my nvidia card. I'm running two monitors of the same card and the problem is when I wake the system up. Only the left monitor comes back to life, the right one says that it doesnt get any input signal. I've tried to switch monitors and ports with out any diffrence in affect. The left monitor is the primary one. I need to restart the right monitor for the nvidia card to notice it and then sending it a signal. here is [17:00] teward: What do you mean target system? [17:01] Hiya, I'm trying to ssh to another system and I need the other system to always have a given environment variable set [17:02] BlueShark: i mean ,behind the forward. [17:02] I need this to be portable across Mac & Linux. Is there any file I can use so that ssh me@myserver echo $HELLO will know what HELLO is? [17:02] teward: that's the system I'm using. [17:02] teward: nmap says that port is open - that's enough? [17:02] i'm confused [17:03] BlueShark: is the system you're using the same as the router, or is there a router between it and the internet [17:04] teward: my laptop <-> router <-> modem <-> internet, afaik [17:04] The du command didn't return an ordered list. [17:05] BlueShark: and you have the forward rule set on the router to accept on port 8888, and to forward to the CORRECT IP ADDRESS for the laptop with a destinatino port on that system of your choosing? [17:06] Kratix, du -sh * | sort -h [17:07] teward: ifconfig shows inet addr:10.0.0.2 - that's the IP I used. [17:07] Oh, yes, of course. Stupid... [17:07] or du -sh * | sort -n [17:08] I can't make it sort the list it already spent 20 minutes on? [17:08] EriC^^: I just reinstalled ubuntu in legacy. Now when I reboot PC it takes me straight to a grub command line. === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [17:09] BlueShark: and an external port scan from outside your network to the port is showing that it's closed? [17:09] teward: yes [17:09] BlueShark: do you have something listening on the port at 10.0.0.2 yet? [17:09] and have you tried accessing that from the outside [17:09] magonix: are you sure you're booting in legacy mode? [17:09] magonix: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [17:10] teward: I have tried accessing it from outside with my static IP:port but that didn't work (the browser didn't load the page). [17:10] teward: how do I check if I have something listening on that port on 10.0.0.2? [17:10] EriC^^: I'm getting a syntax error. [17:11] Kratix: you can copy and paste it into a file, and then type cat /path/to/file | sort -h [17:11] EriC^^ this the grub interface not on ubuntu [17:11] BlueShark: netstat -tulpn | grep :PORT [17:11] there's other ways, I like the netstat way XD [17:11] magonix: ah, live it from a live usb [17:11] *type it [17:12] Hello someone can help me with VPN [17:12] Never mind, I just accidentally closed the terminal... Stupid me again. [17:13] tresmundos, just ask, wait and see [17:14] Thanks, I hope someone can help me here, because in the other channel in Spanish, do not respond [17:14] I have to convert an image to CMYK color for a printer. Gimp plugin in choking on the image size: its 10,800 pixels x 10,800 pixels. It's also too large for the online services I could find. [17:14] teward: yeah, that lists the service. [17:15] I can't figure out what do with the du command. If I just type / instead of /home, it doesn't do anything at all. [17:16] Kratix, outside your /home/ you would need sudo [17:16] how good is Ubuntu for an absolute beginner? [17:17] Kanov, great! [17:17] my beloved mother, whom I cherish rather greatly, remained an fervid user of Windows for approximately 13 years, and ive now decided to introduce her to the opensource world [17:17] but will she able to use it finely? [17:17] i want a distro that doesn't require the use of the terminal at all [17:17] Kanov: it'd probably be alright [17:18] just how alright would it be? [17:18] Kanov: you might want to choose a DE or configuration/theme of a DE that closely resembles the Windows she's used to [17:18] Kanov: about as alright as any other distro [17:18] Kratix: are you trying to check the windows partition? [17:18] Yes. [17:18] Kanov: the DE choice/preconfiguration is going to be far more important than the specific distro [17:18] there was also this windows-looking distro, i forgot what was it called === grantd_afk is now known as grantd [17:18] petrvs; what was it called? [17:18] it looked like windows, was probably KDE [17:18] Kratix: type du -h /mnt | sort -h [17:19] Kanov: doesn't matter, appearance is at the topmost level, any distro can look like any other [17:19] Kratix: sudo du -h /mnt | sort -h [17:19] Kanov: what version of windows does she use? What theme? [17:19] petrvs; the default theme, windows 7 [17:19] /70/70 === grantd is now known as cisco === cisco is now known as grantd [17:20] im a user of arch and have been using it for years - i'd love to introduce her to manjaro, the spinoff of arch, but it's a little intermediate [17:20] Still nothing. [17:20] ubuntu came to me as a logical distro, but i wanted to know whether it is the right choice [17:20] use VM and make a tests [17:21] anyone knpw about converting an image to cmyk color? [17:22] we are printing a banner, size 3x3 feet (90cm x 90cm) and the printer needs a 300 dpi image. Gimp just dies when I throw a 11m x 11m pixel bitmap at it. [17:22] 300x36=10,800 :-( [17:23] moppers: you might be able to use the command-line tool ImageMagick http://superuser.com/a/373373 [17:23] moppers: try printing it with lp [17:23] 11k sorry [17:24] rory: Thanks, I will try imagick [17:24] if you want a program to resize images i made one [17:24] https://github.com/agronick/BIR [17:24] mmm, but so many programs already do that [17:24] Did anyone see what I wrote? [17:25] Kratix: probably someone [17:25] though I did not [17:25] I just wrote that it still didn't do anything. [17:25] but will she able to use it finely? [17:26] Oh he left [17:26] kanov is gone [17:26] stack: not resize. convert RGB to CMYK. [17:26] yarp :p [17:26] imagemagick can do that [17:26] but I can't imagine a good reason you'd want to do that [17:27] hello all [17:27] 'lo [17:27] petrvs: professional printer requires CMYK colour. we are printing a 3 foot x 3 foot banner and he needs a 300 dpi image in CMYK. That's about 11,000 pixels each way, and it killed gimp [17:27] Kratix: I just joined the channel, what is your end goal for the (d)isk (u)sage command ? [17:27] moppers: no... [17:27] moppers: if it were professional, it'd not be bitmap [17:27] does anyone know of a "battery status" monitor for a Kensington Pro Fit wireless mouse? [17:28] iainnitro: never even heard of battery powered mouse battery monitors, TBH :) that'd be neat if they have them === DeaDSouL_ is now known as DeaDSouL [17:28] isn't it kind of obvious when the battery is dead, though? :p [17:29] yeah but nice to know what the percent is. Have seen Solaar for Logitech Unifying devices and wondered if someone had done something similar for Kensington. [17:29] The goal is to find out what takes up the most space on my Windows partition so I can see if there's anything unnecessary I can delete to make room for a backup of my current Ubuntu partition. [17:30] So I can install a new version of Ubuntu instead. [17:30] Kratix: https://windirstat.info/ [17:31] Kratix: or baobab from Ubuntu [17:31] Kratix: I must pass; I have never seen the ubuntu command 'du' applied to a Windows file system . [17:31] du doesn't care what file system it sees [17:31] it either sees it or it doesn't [17:31] sort of a basic tool for that job, though, see previous suggestions [17:32] petrvs: :) ; I watch and learn . [17:32] Can I install Baobab when my Ubuntu version is EOL? [17:32] course [17:33] you probably have it already, though [17:33] How do I use it, then? [17:33] thank-you guys. Have a good day. [17:33] a simpler solution still: find /path/to/windows/mount/ -type f -size +1G -exec du -hs {} \; | sort -h (find files 1GB or larger, sort by size, largest last [at bottom]) === kalen is now known as kalen_not-here [17:34] Kratix: type ls /mnt do you see any files? [17:35] EriC^^: Yes. [17:35] Kratix: ok, sudo du -h /mnt | sort -h [17:35] petrvs: I didn't quite get what I'm supposed to modify in that command. [17:36] Kratix: if you use petrvs [17:36] hey there, is anyone here? [17:36] Kratix: if you use petrvs' command, use '{}' instead of {} [17:36] Kratix: /path/to/windows/mount/ [17:36] FuxY: so many ones [17:37] Kratix: it's the same thing, except it will only show files and not dirs [17:37] {} is fine [17:37] thank god, i think i just broke my MBR :( [17:37] curse [17:37] petrvs: what about spaces in filenames? [17:37] EriC^^: what about them [17:37] find is not ls [17:37] petrvs: you need to use quotes with {} or it won't work [17:37] nope [17:38] petrvs: really? you're an idiot [17:38] lol [17:38] yup, petrvs the idiot who's actually run the command [17:38] try it yourself sometime :) [17:38] time to try it, I suppose... [17:38] yup [17:38] petrvs: i have [17:38] if we were talking about ls, you'd be making sense [17:38] FuxY: What makes you think grub is broke ? What release and what hardware (UEFI ?) are we working with ? [17:39] * petrvs casts remove curse [17:39] I just installed Ubuntu 15.04 on my laptop which had Windows 7 64Bit, using the "Install Ubuntu Alongside Windows" option. But now windows 7 can't boot, but ubuntu is working perfectly (im currently talking from ubuntu) [17:39] This is crazy... [17:40] FuxY: your mbr is fine, then [17:40] FuxY: your grub config might be confused [17:40] Kratix: what is? [17:41] FuxY: Try from the ubuntu install terminal command ' sudo update-grub ' see if Windows is not then chainloaded onto ubuntu's boot menu . [17:41] The people that are supposed to know what to do arguing about what works. [17:41] Kratix: there's always going to be an ignorant person somewhere :) [17:41] Bashing-om: ill try [17:41] Kratix: you don't need to worry about it, though, you can simply try the command and see that it works just fine [17:41] that's the only way anyone ever really _knows_ anything [17:42] im on ubuntu desktop amd64 with dist-upgrade. im trying to install nvidia binary driver but cant seem to Exit X correctly [17:42] petrvs: find isn't working with the space for me. [17:42] nicomachus: with what? [17:42] can someone tell me command to get me to console with gui or X running? [17:42] not running* [17:42] So what do I substitute for /path/to/windows/mount/ [17:42] ? [17:42] en1gma: Ctrl+Alt+T [17:43] to get a terminal. [17:43] k 1 sec lemme try. i was doing Ctrl+Alt+F1 and it didnt work right [17:43] en1gma: CTRL+ALT+F2 [17:43] no not just a terminal [17:43] Kratix: wherever it's mounted, if it's mounted [17:43] out of X completely shutdown [17:43] Kratix: run 'mount' to see [17:43] en1gma: 14.10 and under ' sudo service lightdm stop ' ... 15.04 (systemd) others will have to advise . [17:43] im on 15.04 and it changed [17:43] en1gma: 1 is frequently occupied, try F2 [17:43] its not lightdm anymore to my understanding [17:44] Bashing-om: There are actually 3 windows which are chainloaded, WIndows 7 loader (which should be working) and 2 WIndows Recovery Environment (loader) on dev/sda2 and dev/sda5 [17:44] Ctrl+Alt+F2 does not kill X [17:44] en1gma: you didn't ask for how to kill X [17:44] I am having trouble getting dual boot to work. Specifically, I'm getting GRUB errors on the install of Ubuntu (alongside Windows). When I reboot it just goes right into Windows with no GRUB menu. Is there a way I could edit the GRUB menu in the live USB to point to my Ubuntu partition /dev/sda5 ? [17:44] i said i need to be at a terminal and out of X completely so i can install an nvidia binary driver [17:44] but Bashing-om told you how [17:45] FuxY: And ? the WIndows 7 loader selection does not work ? [17:45] en1gma: you don't need to be out of X for that, IIRC, just not currently within X [17:45] that is, the script wants to be run from not within X [17:45] EriC^^: I rebooted an its all working fine. Was able to choose between all ny OS. Thanks for the help [17:45] im on ubuntu 15.04 anyone know the command? the binary driver is telling me X is still running and will now exit [17:45] out of X please. command? [17:45] Nikesh: did you ever get it to boot into 15.04 last night? [17:46] nicomachus: ? [17:46] Bashing-om: exactly, when i choose the Windows 7 loader it goes straight to an error, if i remember correctly it was 0x0000000f, should i use the windows 7 installation cd to fix my boot? [17:46] I don't know how to read this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11883834/ [17:46] no one knows how to drop to a "real" console without X running anywhere? [17:46] petrvs: he/she was in here last night with boot issues. [17:46] petrvs: ok, you're not an idiot, it works here, i think it's still better to use '{}' though [17:46] nicomachus: re: find & spaces [17:47] EriC^^: it can be, it depends [17:47] {} is fine in what I gave him, though :D [17:47] won't hurt [17:47] it shouldn't, yeah [17:47] nicomachus: No, I rebooted and it still went straight into Windows. [17:47] en1gma: CTRL+ALT+F2 should always work, unless your system is goofed [17:48] en1gma: Bashing-om told you another way [17:48] !text [17:48] To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode [17:48] nicomachus: So I thought maybe using a live USB to get into Ubuntu by editing the GRUB menu could be a solution [17:48] yet another [17:48] FuxY: EriC^^ can advise better, But yeah, I would (re-)install Windows Boot code, then (re-)install ubuntu's then run ' sudo update-grub ' // "assumming" Windows and ubuntu are installed to the same same hard drive . === andyfied_ is now known as andyfied [17:49] petrvs: FuxY My testing in an attempt to boot 15.04 to terminal .. the boot parameter text boots the system, but no networking ! [17:49] FuxY: if you run out of ideas, pastebin /etc/fstab, /boot/grub/grub.cfg, and the output of lsblk -f [17:49] Bashing-om: I thought it was en1gma that wanted that, though :p [17:50] no you are wrong [17:50] X is still running just tried it [17:50] if you dont know the command to get out of X just say so [17:50] en1gma: who's wrong, and why does it matter? :) [17:50] whoever is telling Ctrl-Alt-F2 [17:50] it does not kill X server [17:50] never said it does :) [17:50] did you try what Bashing-om said? === bpsizemore is now known as zz_bpsizemore [17:50] i need it killed. [17:50] anyone know how on 15.04 [17:51] petrvs: ME, ME be in error .. yeah en1gma , [17:51] petrvs: Did you see my last message? [17:51] ive said like 4x already. [17:51] Bashing-om: ill try re installing the windows 7 boot code, would it be better to remove ubuntu and install it on a different partition (but on the same harddrive) ? [17:51] Kratix: dunno, what was it? [17:51] en1gma: sudo systemctl stop lightdm.service [17:51] en1gma: first google result: https://askubuntu.com/questions/613461/how-to-stop-x-server-in-kubuntu-15-04 [17:51] that is for 14.04 [17:51] we are not using lightdm in 15.04 [17:51] en1gma: while you are at a tty1 of course [17:51] no that is for 15.04 en1gma [17:51] en1gma: what're you using? [17:51] en1gma: of course we are [17:51] FuxY: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [17:52] en1gma: sudo systemctl stop sddm.service [17:52] nicomachus yes what you posted is 15.04 i accept that and thanx. lemme try [17:52] FuxY: Whoaaa .. " different partition ???) do you imply that you have presently a WUBI install ? [17:52] Kratix: oh I see it [17:52] en1gma: so you are on Kubuntu? [17:52] k1l: he's not, but it'll work. [17:52] Kratix: is your windows mount you're interested in on a drive attached to the same computer you're running ubuntu from? [17:52] ubuntu 15.04 desktop amd64 with dist-upgrade [17:52] s/mount/filesystem/ [17:52] Attached how? [17:53] en1gma@en1gma-All-Series:~$ sudo systemctl stop sddm.service [17:53] Failed to get D-Bus connection: Operation not permitted [17:53] nicomachus: Kubuntu uses another dm. sdd or something like that. ubuntu still uses lightdm [17:53] Kratix: is it inside the same computer, or otherwise attached, by usb cable, etc. [17:53] FuxY: i doubt ubuntu has touched the windows stuff, you probably are mixing uefi and legacy and ubuntu is trying to boot the .efi file and it's in legacy mode or something like that [17:53] en1gma: like i told you already! [17:53] It is on the same hard drive. [17:53] Bashing-om: no, when i was on windows 7 i created a diff partition with 50gb to use for ubuntu, but when installing it (using a livecd) i choose the "Install Alongside" instead of "Do Something Else" [17:53] Kratix: okay, do you see it listed on the left of your file manager? [17:53] FuxY: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [17:53] ok let me get to a tty1. 1 sec [17:53] EriC^^: will try [17:54] No, but I actually think I did so earlier. [17:54] same error in tty1 [17:54] EriC^^: it replied with http://termbin.com/carx [17:54] dbus error [17:54] en1gma: did you even listen? [17:55] about 4 ppl were talking [17:55] en1gma: sddm is Kubuntu. are you on Kubuntu? [17:55] nope. ubuntu [17:55] lightdm in 15.04? [17:55] so dont try to stop sddm [17:55] k 1 sec [17:55] because there is no sddm [17:56] I have a problem with my nvidia card. I'm running two monitors of the same card and the problem is when I wake the system up. Only the left monitor comes back to life, the right one says that it doesnt get any input signal. I've tried to switch monitors and ports with out any diffrence in affect. The left monitor is the primary one. I need to restart the right monitor for the nvidia card to notice it and then sending it a signal. here is [17:56] en1gma: next time dont make such a drama, if you cant handle more people to give you hints and solutions. [17:56] FuxY: something seems off [17:56] kil [17:56] didnt work [17:56] same error with lightdm.service [17:56] FuxY: ubuntu is just using 11gb not 50gb, you have a 50gb ntfs partition though.. [17:56] next time tell me the right service as that is 14.04 not ubuntu 15.04 [17:56] Kratix: well, if you run lsblk -f, do you see it there? [17:57] before you act like you are correct [17:57] en1gma: stop that attitude! [17:57] you [17:57] EriC^^: that's because of a error of mine, i choose the install alongside option instead of the "Do Something Else" and choosing the 50gb partition [17:57] en1gma: don't get haughty in here when people--who have no obligation to--are trying to help you. [17:57] you are gloating before it fixed it. at least wait to gloat until it gets fixed by you [17:57] en1gma: ubuntu 15.04 is running lightdm. please show me what dm you are running [17:57] i not sure how to show you [17:57] FuxY: i think ubuntu uses whatever free space it finds, the 50gb partition actually has a filesystem ( ntfs ) [17:58] screen shot? [17:58] FuxY: type sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt [17:58] hey all! [17:58] en1gma, ctrl alt F2, sudo service ligtdm stop, and do what you want. [17:58] lickalott: heyo [17:58] FuxY: then type ls /mnt to see what's there [17:59] en1gma: ps ax | grep lightdm [17:59] having an issue with gran_size and I can't seem to find out how to edit the grub.cfg to enable the sanitizer. Anyone have experience with that? [17:59] .. seems it worked :-) [17:59] EriC^^: it doesn't allow me , gives this error: Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened. The volume may be already mounted, or another software may use it which could be identified for example by the help of the 'fuser' command. [17:59] The du command seems to have worked anyway, but I have no idea how. I didn't even know I had that terminal window open. Strange... [17:59] FuxY: ok, you might have it mounted from nautilus [18:00] FuxY: try checking nautilus for it [18:00] ( the filemanager ) [18:00] Kratix: mmm, good job then [18:00] oh snap, 11 [18:00] EriC^^: i know nautilus is the file manager, but what do you mean having it mounted from nautilus? didn't understand , sorry [18:02] FuxY, if it is mounted, you will see the hdd in nautilus sidepanel [18:03] EriC^^: Nautilus shows Ubuntu/414GB Volume/SYSTEM/Computer [18:03] FuxY: is there a 50gb one? [18:03] I think I found something I can delete. But it's a program split between a lot directories, and I don't know if it'll mess up if I only delete some of the files, and I can't uninstall it properly, as I can't access Windows right now. [18:03] FuxY: type mount | nc termbin.com 9999 [18:04] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/wg2v [18:05] let me start with something easier. with the 64bit version of 14.04 i only show grub. Can I use/install grub2 without a fresh install (i.e. install grub2 over existing install) or is the grub that I'm seeing actually grub2 and just not labeled accordingly? [18:05] FuxY: type ls /media/loureiro/Ubuntu [18:06] FuxY: i think you created a volume called ubuntu after shrinking the windows volume [18:07] EriC^^: you are completely true, when i shrinked it i named it Ubuntu [18:07] Anyone able to help me with .htaccess rewrite URL's? I'd like anyone accessing "/files/{hash}" to have the URL rewritten as "view.php?hash={hash}" [18:07] EriC^^: terminal replied with : System Volume Information [18:07] Ello: http://pastebin.com/UdT85KN1 [18:07] How I fix this: http://pastebin.com/UdT85KN1 [18:09] FuxY: ok, when you shrink it, you should just leave it as unallocated space, so ubuntu can see it and use it [18:09] FuxY: i guess it's empty, after shrinking it did you boot into windows a couple times as recommeded? [18:09] EriC^^: Can You help me please? http://pastebin.com/UdT85KN1 [18:09] Ad_224, saucy .. that version is EOL. upgrade please [18:09] Is there anything I can do about that? [18:09] Ad_224: remove those ppa's that are giving you 404s [18:10] How, I'm new to Ubuntu [18:10] !saucy [18:10] Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) was the 19th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on July 17th, 2014. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/saucy [18:10] Ad_224: new to ubuntu as you just installed an unsupported release¿ [18:10] Ad_224: upgrade to the 14.04 LTS or the current version, 15.04 [18:10] EriC^^: i thought i was to name it so ubuntu could use it ._. well, im dumb [18:10] its VPS, I only found Ubuntu 13 on site from where I bought this === ROMEO is now known as Guest96316 [18:11] Ad_224: best is to format that drive and make a new start with a actual ubuntu release. ubuntu 13.10 is dead. [18:11] what a day yoh so tired [18:11] Ad_224, contact your vpn vendor, they should provide you with an image, as VPN's are heavily tweaked [18:11] Ad_224: http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ [18:11] EriC^^: yes , and it worked, but suddenly windows freezed at the boot right before the "Windows is Starting animation" and now windows doesn't even get to the animation [18:12] FuxY: do you have a windows cd? [18:12] EriC^^: the first 3 or 4 boots into windows worked perfectly, idk what changed that, since i didn't mess with MBR/GRUB or windows files [18:12] EriC^^: ill only have it in a couple of hours [18:12] FuxY: oh, after installing ubuntu it also worked? === zz_bpsizemore is now known as bpsizemore [18:13] EriC^^: yes, both os worked perfectly for maybe 8 hours, something broke the windows 7 boot [18:13] !away > bpsizemore [18:13] bpsizemore, please see my private message [18:13] FuxY: odd, ok when you get the windows cd, repair the mbr and boot into it, then delete the ubuntu partitions [18:14] Any other way to upgrade it from 13 to new version? [18:14] EriC^^: bootrec /fixmbr ? [18:14] Would someone at least answer me? [18:14] FuxY: delete the ext4 one thats 11gb and the swap thats 4gb [18:14] Ad_224: you can run a "sudo do-release-upgrade" [18:14] my ulimit -n settings keep resetting themselves. does anybody have an idea how i can fix that? (ubuntu server) [18:14] FuxY: and the primary partition called Ubuntu which you created [18:15] EriC^^: oh, ubuntu created those 2 partitions? [18:15] k1l: sudo: do-release-upgrade: command not found [18:15] Ad_224: but its really bad hoster if they only offer an outdated (means massiv security issues) version of ubuntu to install [18:15] FuxY: yeah it created those partitions which are in an extended logical partition [18:15] can I virtualize a "MS SQL Server" on a W2012 VM using VirtualBox, in Ubuntu with no issues? [18:15] Ad_224: well, talk to the hoster [18:16] k1l: Any other ways to do it? [18:16] Ad_224: 14.04 should be the actual version they should offer [18:16] EriC^^: interesting, so, if i was to uninstall ubuntu, i would only need to delete those 2 partitions? [18:16] FuxY: you need to delete those 2, i think you're going to lose that space though, cause it's inside an extended logical partition somehow, and you need that partition for the recovery partition which is the 16gb partition [18:17] FuxY: yeah ubuntu is on those 2 partitions [18:17] a recovery partition for windows or ubuntu? [18:17] ubuntu was faster than kubuntu... [18:17] it's for windows [18:17] but the thing is i like kubuntu gui.. [18:17] but im on a hp laptop, it already comes with a recovery partition [18:17] FuxY: btw you might be able to still access it and fix the mbr from there, it's a long shot though as it's not too happy when the partition table gets modified [18:18] FuxY: yeah i know, same here i have a 16gb partition in the end too [18:18] cofo: install the kubuntu desktop environment on ubuntu [18:18] Seriously, I have no idea why I'm not getting an answer. Did I say something I shouldn't have? What am I supposed to do? [18:18] hi [18:18] im on live [18:18] FuxY: i think it's f10 or something to get it to boot the recovery partition when the pc boots [18:18] live cd [18:18] nicomachus: [18:18] Kartix: Everyone's pretty busy atm, just give it a second. [18:18] FuxY: pressing esc should show you a list of options when you boot [18:18] EriC^^: it's F11, but yeah, that's it [18:18] Kratix: Everyone's pretty busy atm, just give it a second [18:18] last time i chcecked ubuntu was able to install a "new" system with encrypted lvm but was not able to replace existing encrypted lvm. can 15.04 do that? [18:19] cofo: live shouldn't matter [18:19] EriC^^: funny thing is HP's recovery partition doesn't have an option to fix boot [18:19] !details | Kratix [18:19] Kratix: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) [18:19] FuxY: anyways, when windows boots, delete the 2 partitions and keep the 16gb one, and then delete the 50gb one called Ubuntu, and leave it as unallocated space [18:19] Kratix: Dealing with a Windows application from ubuntu ( deleting) is not a thing to do . [18:19] i'll wait for more pro [18:19] cofo: just run 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [18:19] FuxY: oh [18:19] oh okay [18:20] FuxY: Bashing-om any idea about the extended partition? [18:20] Bashing-om: I know, but I don't really have a choice, as I can't access Windows. [18:20] EriC^^: i thought i had to remove Grub too to uninstall ubuntu [18:21] FuxY: when you use the windows repair cd it'll overwrite grub in the mbr [18:21] FuxY: do you have recovery disks? have you made them? [18:22] last time i chcecked ubuntu was able to install a "new" system with encrypted lvm but was not able to replace existing encrypted lvm. can 15.04 do that? [18:22] EriC^^: i have the normal windows 7 install disk, it's at a friends house, that's why ill only have them in a couple of hours ahah [18:22] hi [18:23] FuxY: if the windows cd can't fix it for some reason, you can use testdisk to restore the partition's boot sector, it might be damaged and that's why windows suddenly wont boot [18:23] FuxY: check here http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step [18:24] Hey is it fine if I use a tethered connection from my device to my PC as my main source of internet or will there be any issues? [18:24] EriC^^: my important files are all in a clould backup, if the windows 7 cd doesn't fix it, i think ill just do a clean install of both OS [18:25] Is this correct: http://askubuntu.com/questions/11492/repository-package-transfer#answer-11495 ? [18:25] EriC^^: if it wasn't for work related stuff i would stick to ubuntu, i've only been using it for ~20hours but it's much smoother and user friendly [18:26] FuxY: yeah, it's pretty smooth and stable and quick too [18:26] ok... my wife was saying she likes linux but she went back to windows because her amd gpu was flickering in ubuntu. i tried different drivers and also tried the catalyst driver from their website but i was having trouble... [18:26] ubuntu + gnome classic :O [18:26] told her i would figure this out before we give ubuntu a go again [18:27] sl1rpy: did you try the xorg driver? [18:27] the amd proprietary drivers can be...finnicky. [18:28] nicomachus, i tried mostly the proprietary drivers... i thought i tried xorg but im not 100% about it [18:28] I want to transfer all my packages from one drive(it is a usb with linux on it) to my laptop ... is this correct:http://askubuntu.com/questions/11492/repository-package-transfer#answer-11495 ? [18:28] nicomachus, shes using her computer right now so i have no way of checking [18:29] sl1rpy: i've had good luck with the x-org driver on my machine. and it's a pos. [18:29] Kratix: why can't you boot into windows? [18:29] EriC^^: yesterday, when i started using ubuntu (my first linux experience) i was so confused as many of the tasks uses directly the Terminal, in all my years of using windows i've only touched the command line 3 or 4 times [18:29] nicomachus, are you using stock or edgers? [18:29] Kratix: also, there must be some files there you can delete? clean the browser cache maybe? etc. etc. there's bound to be some files [18:30] sl1rpy: stock.

[18:30] FuxY : same here [18:30] I can boot into it, but I can't access an admin account because I forgot my password, which I would never normally do, but I have in these two years. [18:31] sl1rpy: it does. but you said you downloaded the catalyst driver from the website? [18:31] There are some I can delete, but they're mostly very small. [18:31] i did. i THOUGHT there was flickering when it was first installed but in order to check everything again i have to reinstall... i encrypted the disk so i had to do a reinstall [18:32] segwaypro: every problem can be fixed with a bit of searching, and you definitely learn a bit about the OS with every problem you encounter, huge props to the community [18:32] Anyone know when adobe flash will be fixed and placed for update [18:32] lol thats all assuming she lets me [18:32] jeffrey_f: there were updates today [18:33] jeffrey_f: but flash needs to die. i really hope this last incident helps on that [18:33] Kratix: you can reset the password pretty easily i think [18:33] k1l: I JUST tried and apt-get dist-upgrade and there wasn't anything [18:33] hi people ;) [18:33] Do you have any idea how, or should I search for it myself? [18:34] EriC^^: VERY easily. Kratix: http://www.chntpw.com/reset-windows-7-admin-password-with-ubuntu/ [18:35] jeffrey_f: what gives you "lsb_release -d"?

[18:37] Kratix: your live usb is EOL? [18:37] make a new one... [18:38] Kratix: how big of a usb do you have btw? [18:38] is uc.archive.ubuntu.com down right now?

[18:40] moses, say more about what you are trying to do and what is happening [18:40] Im trying to install latex [18:40] jeffrey_f, Turn off the ubuntu config in add remove you will have flash. [18:41] Where do I see which it is? [18:41] Kratix: type cat /etc/issue [18:41] bubbasaures: you can still clikc on "use flash anyway". [18:41] k1l, Not here [18:41] 11.10.

[18:44] Kratix: type sudo sed -i 's/old-releases/archive/' /etc/apt/sources.list [18:44] moses, You have to answer questions and comments, precede with the nick of the other. [18:44] Kratix: then type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install chntpw [18:44] Kratix: and follow the guide nicomachus gave you to change the windows admin pass [18:45] Kratix: sorry, sudo sed -i 's/archive/old-releases/' /etc/apt/sources.list [18:45] FuxY: EriC^^ So, we await the arrival of the Windows repair CD ? OR go ahead and delete the ubuntu partitions within the extended partition -> unallocated space, and then install ubuntu once more ?? [18:45] ok something is definitely wrong with the internet right now [18:46] Bashing-om: problem is windows isn't booting suddenly [18:46] bubbasaures: I don't see it, but I might just be blind. [18:46] moses: http://askubuntu.com/a/571445/31260 [18:46] Bashing-om: also, i was wondering about the space inside the extended partition, he has a primary partition (ntfs) which he was trying to use for ubuntu, it's 50gb [18:46] Bashing-om: http://termbin.com/carx [18:47] jeffrey_f, Sorry addons my bad under extensions are canonical configs [18:47] EriC^^: FuxY We await the Windows repair disk . And look'n at http://termbin.com/carx . [18:47] Bashing-om: if he uses the 50gb one, he'll be missing out on the 16gb in the extended one, maybe use that one for "/" and the 50gb for /home ? what do you think? === ochorocho1 is now known as ochorocho [18:48] It doesn't seem to work. It's stuck on "98% [Waiting for headers]". [18:49] bubbasaures: I still don't see it [18:49] Kratix, Are you just stating or addressing someone [18:50] Hi, can someone help me with a usb mouse?

[18:51] my usb mouse is not working [18:51] EriC^^: FuxY " 3 414GB 468GB 53,7GB primary ntfs " Is the partiton in error ? ... I would rather for the future, remove all ubuntu and the extended partition. Make a new extended partition and install ubuntu in the extended . That leaves a primary partition available for the future use ( ubuntu is happy to install within the extended partition ) . [18:51] bubbasaures: (I forgot) [18:52] Kratix: type cat /etc/apt/sources.list | nc termbin.com 9999 [18:52] Bashing-om: i'm all confused now [18:52] And then? [18:53] Bashing-om: the problem is that there's a 32gb extended partition and its using only 16gb for the recovery partition at the end [18:53] FuxY: Hang loose, we all come to an aggreement that you ( it is your system ) like . [18:53] Bashing-om: Delete all the extended partitions and install ubuntu in the 50gb one? [18:54] Bashing-om: i'm really open to ideas, i don't mind [18:54] test [18:54] jeffrey_f, Honestly if you can't find that you probably should not be okaying flash under the circumstances now. [18:54] FuxY: well, there's the recovery partition taking 16gb at the end in a 32gb extended one, and you have space before that extended partition (50gb) === rohan_ is now known as rohan_g [18:55] if we can resize the extended one, so it starts right before the 16gb recovery partition, you could use that extra space, or, if you delete the recovery partition you could just create another extended one there and use it for ubuntu [18:55] Kratix, Ah, you can tab complete nics type a few letters of a nic and hit the tab. === Blaster is now known as Guest16014 [18:56] i'm not sure about resizing where the extended one starts, also i dont know if the recovery would still work [18:56] bubbasaures: Thanks. [18:56] no prob [18:57] EriC^^: Can ubuntu's system files be installed in one partition and all other ubuntu related stuff in another partition?

[18:57] FuxY: yeah, that's what i was thinking [18:58] FuxY: you can use the 16gb one for "/" and have your /home in the 50gb partition [18:58] EriC^^, http://termbin.com/fa96 [18:58] EriC^^: that's sounds like a good idea [18:59] FuxY: EriC^^ As you can see, we have many many options, the 1st that EriC^^ has propsed is the simplest, and quickest . / (root) installed to the extended 16 gig partition and /home on the 50 gig partition. Just a tad bit to point the installer to the right partitons, once they have been deleted and remade . We can leave the /swap as is - the installer will use it . [18:59] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884217/ [19:00] Kratix: type sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.old [19:00] EriC^^: wait, are you talking about the 16gb recovery partition? /sda5/ ? [19:00] EriC^^, Done, it doesn't say anything. [19:01] FuxY: no, the partitions before it [19:02] FuxY: Sotty my mistake .. the "11,5GB" sda5 parttion for '/' . [19:02] sorry* [19:02] Helo ppl, My wifi isnt getting connected in ubuntu. I have checked the proxy settings. Can you tell what else should I check to make it workable?

[19:03] FuxY: shutter is ok i guess, i think xfce has one that's very quick and to the point [19:04] FuxY: I've always just used the native screenshot app, and just clicked "copy to clipboard" instead of save, and then pasted it into Imgur. [19:04] Kratix: type the second command [19:05] EriC^^, What second command? [19:05] Kratix: ok, type echo "deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric main restricted universe multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list [19:05] i had a typo in the first one [19:05] upgrading to 15.04 seems to have solved my repeating desktop issue [19:06] hi [19:06] EriC^^, I didn't even notice it just said what I typed... Done, anyway. [19:06] Kratix: ok, type sudo apt-get update === tswett is now known as tswett1 [19:07] EriC^^, Done. [19:07] ok, type sudo apt-get install chntpw [19:08] oh wow, still having trouble getting that installed/ [19:08] follow this guide http://www.chntpw.com/reset-windows-7-admin-password-with-ubuntu/ [19:08] ?* [19:08] ?? [19:08] Bashing-om: EriC^^ , which partitions should be used for / and /home ? http://imgur.com/MQrjpYc [19:09] PC18: going to need a few more details. [19:09] FuxY: it's basically the same [19:09] FuxY: all you have to do is use sda3 as /home [19:09] FuxY: and just fix windows [19:09] FuxY: we can do that now if you want ( making sda3 as /home ) [19:10] EriC^^: i think ill make those changes when i reinstall ubuntu [19:11] How would I troubleshoot gnome-shell not loading the login screen? [19:11] FuxY: ok [19:11] Can I modify the GRUB installation in a live USB to point to my installation to the HDD (i.e. /dev/sda5 mounted as /) ? [19:11] EriC^^, I can't access my Windows drive now for some reason. Will take a screenshot. [19:11] Lazik: see xorg.log in /var/log/ [19:11] Nikesh: yarp. [19:11] Lazik: could be a driver issue [19:11] Nikesh: what's actually the problem? === bpsizemore is now known as zz_bpsizemore [19:12] whats a good method or providing an ubuntu desktop remotely to a window client? I used to use nomachines, but installing their new version is seems quite slow now [19:12] EriC^^, mate-screenshot gives an error too... [19:12] k1l: xorg and dmesg look "fine" [19:12] EriC^^: how many GB should the /(root) partition have? [19:12] EriC^^: Hehe, good question. I installed Ubuntu alongside Windows 8.1 (which I need for work) but it won't load GRUB [19:12] FuxY: about 14-20 usually [19:12] that's pretty good for "/" [19:12] k1l: is there something more like gnome level logs? I checked in /var/log/gdm/ but it looks like the xorg outpout [19:13] FuxY: if you want, use the swap partition for root too, you'll have 16gb for "/" which is good [19:14] Lazik: gdm could have an own log [19:14] FuxY: and create an extended partition instead of the primary Ubuntu one, and have 2 logical partitions there's one for /home and one for swap [19:14] Lazik: ah, hmm. [19:14] EriC^^: i'm thinking of deleting sda4/sda6 and sda7 and create a partition with 20gb for / and leave the 50gb for /home [19:14] hey [19:15] hi PC18 [19:15] PC18: can you give some more details on your wifi issue? [19:15] FuxY: you can't delete sda4, it's the extended partition, it has the recovery partition in it too [19:15] FuxY: do you care for the recovery partition? [19:16] yeah I'd like to . [19:16] FuxY: For reference, I run a verry tight system . My '/' partition is only " /dev/sda1 4.7G 2.1G 2.4G 47% / [19:16] EriC^^: mb, didnt see that [19:16] Nikesh: is it loading windows directly? [19:16] PC18: what version of ubuntu? are you able to connect to the internet with other machines on that network? Is there a hardware switch? [19:17] Bashing-om: 4.7gb are enough for a / partition? [19:17] FuxY: you mean 14.7? [19:17] PC18: also, is it allowing you to select a network to connect to, or just not showing anything at all? [19:18] EriC^^: bashing says his / partition is only 4.7gb [19:18] any upstart gurus here? I'm trying to figure out how to "skip" a post-start script from a pre-start script. The cookbook uses a number of examples where they just "stop; exit 0;", but that prevents dependent services from picking up that that service ran properly (even though it skipped) [19:18] EriC^^: i'm probably retarded [19:18] FuxY: oh i missed his msg [19:19] FuxY: well, a fresh ubuntu install is about 6-7gb === lim is now known as Guest25215 [19:19] nicomachus: I'm using ubuntu14.04 with windows. Iam able to get connected to a network in windows but here it is not working [19:19] FuxY: I did say I run tight .. Yeah, if you watch what you are doing one can have '/' in such a small partition. The point is the 12 gigs is plenty for your use case . [19:19] Bashing-om: 12gb is enough even with update and stuff? [19:19] Ok, PC18. Is it letting you select a network to connect to? [19:20] can you just "exit 0" in the pre-start to complete the started event without running the post-start? [19:20] I have manually set the network setting which involved appling proxy system wide [19:20] yeah it is but doesnt get connected to. [19:20] I've asked apt to remove a number of applications, but it's turning around and trying to install a number of alternatives in their place [19:21] How can I tell apt not to do this and to fully remove those packages without trying to magically "fix" dependency issues [19:21] FuxY: Plenty for the system... /home is where the majority of your space will be consumed . [19:21] Given the choice of removing the depending article, rather than implanting an alternative, I want to remove the dependee [19:21] PC18: ok. type 'sudo lshw -class network | pastebinit' [19:21] into a terminal [19:21] * davidw is playing around with Ubuntu under Parallels.... [19:22] Not a fan of the Mac environment I'm using at work [19:22] the resolution is all wonky with parallels though [19:22] Bashing-om: Got it! What file system should the partition for / and /home have ? Or does ubuntu format it to the correct one? === ochorocho1 is now known as ochorocho [19:23] nicomachus: installed pastebinit [19:24] EriC^^? [19:24] PC18: ok now 'sudo lshw -class network | pastebinit' [19:24] should output a link. share that here. [19:25] yeah done that it asked me to install ,completed that [19:25] yea you'll have to run it again now that pastebinit is installed. [19:27] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884346/ [19:28] Kind of a weird question. I use Ubuntu on all my machines, but I'm building a gaming box, and it needs Windows. This hurts my soul, but... Anyone know of a way to buy a legit copy of Windows for not hundreds of dollars? [19:29] wad sounds like not an ubuntu support issue [19:29] You are correct sir. [19:29] I'll just go away then. [19:30] wad: try ##windows perhaps [19:30] * wad heads there, thanks! === zz_bpsizemore is now known as bpsizemore [19:32] Bashing-om: EriC^^ i'm heading out, in a couple hours ill bring the windows 7 disc and we'll fix this :D thanks guys and brb [19:33] EriC^^, are you here? [19:33] #milliways [19:34] Kratix: yeah back [19:35] make [19:35] Kratix: what's the problem [19:35] PC18: looking at this, one sec [19:36] EriC^^, I can't access my Windows drive. [19:36] what exactly did you do after installing chntpw [19:37] PC18: do you see your driver listed in 'sudo lsmod'? [19:38] EriC^^, Uh, nothing besides trying to access my Windows drive. [19:38] Kratix: type ls /mnt [19:40] EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884391/ [19:40] Kratix: looks to be there [19:41] Kratix: type cd /mnt/Windows/System32/config [19:42] Is there a way to run a .spec file such as the following, in Ubuntu? https://github.com/pld-linux/libva-driver-intel-g45/blob/master/libva-driver-intel-g45.spec === karen is now known as Guest30214 [19:45] EriC^^, And?

[19:46] EriC^^, It says "-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 262144 2013-11-07 17:48 SAM" [19:47] Hi, guys, I don't know too much about linux, but I have enjoyed Ubuntu and Linux Lite on different computers. But, the last few days, I've had something that says, "Press any key to continue..." before my ubuntu loads up. Normally, I don't see that. Is this something I can clear up somehow? [19:47] Kratix: type sudo chntpw -u Administrator SAM [19:47] Guest30214: does it say anything before that? [19:48] EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884423/ [19:48] It appears on the left top side of the screen, and I can't see really what it says. If I press a key it will continue and load up, but I don't think this should be normal. [19:48] Kratix: you typed type [19:49] I can only see "any key to continue" [19:49] happens a lot, run the command again [19:50] Guest30214: try pressing e over the ubuntu entry and then remove quiet splash from the line that says linux /vmlinuz ...... then press ctrl+x [19:50] see if it mentions what's going on [19:50] i found it is less ad [19:52] EriC^^, Okay, I'll boot Windows now, try to uninstall something and be back. [19:52] what do you mean "the ubuntu entry" ? [19:52] Guest30214: do you get grub? [19:53] uuuuh no? sorry what do you mean? === tswett1 is now known as tswett [19:53] I know grub is some sort of commands [19:53] Guest30214: hold shift after you boot the pc to get grub [19:53] ok [19:53] it's the bootloader [19:54] oh [19:54] after bios, right? [19:54] Guest30214: yeah [19:55] cool! I will try that, EriC. Thanks! [19:55] no problem === sync0new_ is now known as sync0pate [19:57] I think I forgot something. How incredibly stupid. [19:57] Any thoughts on purevpn provider? [19:57] Any VPN provider that you guys advice? [19:58] !vpn [19:58] For more information on vpn please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN [19:58] OpenVPN provider [20:01] Kratix: ? [20:01] EriC^^, Nothing happens when I type ls /mnt now. [20:02] Kratix: yeah, you need to mount it first [20:02] Kratix: you can use the filemanager, it should be listed to the left [20:03] EriC^^, Strange, I couldn't do that before. [20:04] EriC^^, It still doesn't seem to work. [20:04] what does it say? [20:05] Kratix: after you mount it, click on it in the filemanager to open it [20:05] EriC^^, Then? [20:05] do whatever you wanted to do. [20:05] *.. [20:06] EriC^^, Whatever I wanted to do? I don't understand. [20:07] Kratix: you said you forgot something [20:09] any way to enable touchscreen scrolling (drag finger to scroll page) on desktop firefox (other than using some outdated extensions)? [20:10] EriC^^, I only cleared the admin password, I forgot to change the password for my actual user. So I need to get to the same point I got before. [20:10] Kratix i havnet followed, what brought you here? [20:11] Kratix: ok, well if you mounted it from the file manager, it should show up in /media///Windows/System32/config this time [20:11] Kratix: so type cd /media/...... etc. use tab-completion [20:13] EriC^^, Tab completion? [20:13] Kratix: yeah, you press tab and it completes the dir [20:13] Kratix: i dont think you need to set it to something, i think just clearing it will allow you to login === screedoz is now known as screedo [20:13] then set it from windows if you'd like [20:14] Well, removing "quiet splash" from grub didn't get rid of "press any key to continue" when I upload Ubuntu. The "quiet splash" didn't stay removed. What did I do wrong, EriC? [20:14] upload ubuntu ¿ [20:15] karen_: yeah, that's a one time thing just to see the boot messages, did it mention anything before any key to continue? [20:15] EriC^^, The tab thing doesn't seem to work. [20:15] I can't see it. It is cut off by my monitor. I only see "continue" at top left. [20:16] Kratix: type cd /media/ press tab a couple times it will list files, type the start of your user and press tab, it'll complete it, and repeat until your in Windows/System32/config [20:16] I'm just thinking that's what it says. [20:16] Kratix type the first two characters, then hit tab [20:17] karen_: ok, type cat /var/log/boot.log | nc termbin.com 9999 [20:17] you mean online?

I'm running two monitors of the same card and the problem is when I wake the system up. Only the left monitor comes back to life, the right one says that it doesnt get any input signal. I've tried to switch monitors and ports with out any diffrence in affect. The left monitor is the primary one. I need to restart the right monitor for the nvidia card to notice it and then sending it a signal. here is [20:35] ryan___: "gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad-faad:i386 >> you should reinstall it before attempting configuration " . Have you tried to follow the advise given ? [20:37] Bashing-om: I don't know, what to do? :( [20:39] Shall I call support team? Bashing-om [20:41] ryan___: Try : ' sudo apt-get remove -s gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad-faad:i386 ' . Where the -s flag is "simulate' . see what it is going to do, if nothing adverse then repeat the command without the -s . and then reinstall it . [20:41] Good night. I want a bit of advise regarding the SSO. Back in the day when Ubuntu One was shutting down it's cloud storage I closed my account a bit hastily, without scrolling all the way down to the explanation that it would shut off my access to the connected site -- Launchpad (which I have occasionally used to report bugs) and a few forums. Now, will it restore my access to those if I register an account with Ubuntu One with the same credentials again? [20:41] somebody, Isn't it closed for good? [20:42] Bashing-om: it's removed now what? [20:43] Bashing-om: nope, still having and running into the same error again [20:43] bubbasaures: I am pretty sure that you can open another one. [20:43] somebody: If you completely deleted your account, it's very unlikely. Unless you kept your account active and only left Ubuntu one cloud storage shutdown. [20:43] Errrm I mean bubbasaures* [20:44] Eurynomos, It's not me in need. [20:44] Eurynomos: I think it's linked. I closed my Ubuntu One account, which today roughly corresponds to Ubuntu SSO account. [20:44] So does anyone have insight into how this works? [20:45] ryan___: you removed, what did it say ? [20:45] somebody, Might help to look through links this is one from the original closure announcement. http://voices.canonical.com/ubuntuone/2014/06/03/moving-your-content-away-from-ubuntu-one-file-services/ [20:46] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884657/ take a look [20:47] ryan___: Look'n at http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884657/ . [20:47] hello! I'm having problems with PC. It just freezes. Where do I look? Inside what file I can read the log to check if it's hardware failure? [20:47] somebody: After Ubuntu One cloud shutdown all those accounts were kept active with the current service for launchpad and all Ubuntu services with OpenID. So, if you decided back then to delete said account, it's unlikely to get everything back. Best is to register another account which will give you access to all Ubuntu services that require a login. [20:47] Bashing-om: thank you :) [20:47] any way to enable touchscreen scrolling (drag finger to scroll page) on desktop firefox (other than using some outdated extensions)? [20:48] Eurynomos: Excuse my asking, but how can you be sure of this? [20:48] delac, Helps if you give more context and definitions. [20:48] hello, can someone tell me how to launch google chrome from terminal as sudo? === screedoz is now known as screedo [20:49] Finetundra, Why sudo that is a bad idea in general. [20:49] Finetundra: why would you do that? [20:49] ryan___: OK, per advise given; Try ' sudo apt-get install --reinstall gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad-faad:i386 ' . [20:49] somebody: Once an account is deleted there's no going back after a said period of time, unless you open a ticket claim and hope everything is somewhere backed up in a server. [20:49] daftykins: , bubbasaures, special situation [20:49] 'special' huh :> [20:50] I know it's a bad idea but I need to [20:50] nicomachus: :) [20:50] Bashing-om: Nope - http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884686/ [20:50] Eurynomos: Is it there in their policies somewhere that I can read too, or do you have intimate first-hand knowledge of this? :) [20:50] Finetundra, That don't fly here without an explanation, and any one helping you do that without such is not helping. [20:50] Still the same [20:50] ryan___: Look'n at http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884686/ . [20:51] Should I repair the command line code, if you get me [20:51] EriC^^: ##vaperhangout [20:51] delac: If your machine has touchscreen capability usually firefox would detect gestures as well, what version of Ubuntu are you using? Could it be the hardware isn't fully supported? [20:52] bubbasaures: such as? Im trying to use firefox on Ubuntu on a touchscreen laptop. I only wish to be able to scroll the page with touch. Touch drivers are working, but dragging finger on screen just seems to select text on firefox. [20:52] Eurynomos: ^ [20:52] yo [20:52] delac: I have the same situation on Firefox on Fedora, I could stand to know more about those drivers. [20:52] delac, you were asked some specific questions, that follow my request, details rule here is all. ;) [20:52] look, I only need it this one time. [20:53] Finetundra: sudo google-chrome-stabe [20:53] bubbasaures: is that enough details? [20:53] nO [20:53] Finetundra: sudo google-chrome-stable [20:54] delac: I see, go to firefox preferences->advanced scrolling. [20:54] nicomachus, If you do this regularly give bad advice you will be called on it [20:54] I came here to ask a question, then I fixed the problems. So now I just want to complain about fstab caring about the order of options. [20:54] EriC^^, It didn't work. After being stuck in Startup Repair for 20 minutes, when I tried to log in to my account, which I had cleared the password for, it just asked me for a password again. [20:54] nicomachus: thanks friend [20:54] delac: If that doesn't work, there's add-ons for it. [20:54] ryan___: Well .. humm .. what is that file that the package manager is choking on ' cat /etc/init.d/avgd | pastebinit ' ? [20:54] bubbasaures: is that the wrong command...? [20:54] he was already warned against the danger of it and made the choice to proceed. [20:54] MokoLokoToko: So whats the issue exactly? :) Options in fstab are carried out in the order specified. [20:55] nicomachus, This is not what you know, it is protecting the user a root chrome is bad. [20:55] Bashing-om: I do not know [20:55] Bashing-om: What command should I type in :) [20:55] bekks, yeah I realize that now. I just read somewhere that the order doesnt matter and that messed me up a bit. [20:55] Specifically, I had the exec option before the users option [20:55] MokoLokoToko: Whereever you read that, that site was wrong. [20:55] And that prevented scripts from executing [20:55] Eurynomos: what is this "advanced scrolling". dont seem to have such settings [20:56] Yes, it was :) [20:56] MokoLokoToko: So whats your line in the fstab now? [20:56] is there any way to get rid of the default ubuntu scrollbar [20:56] yup [20:56] nicomachus, Than the warning should stand, you enabled them. [20:56] Eurynomos: also trying to avoid the add-on, since its not maintained anymore (since 2013) [20:56] bubbasaures: You're right, it's a terrible idea and I'm putting my sysem at risk. I knew this before I came here [20:56] *system [20:56] ryan___: Sorry ,, type in ' cat /etc/init.d/avgd | pastebinit ' . [20:56] petrvs: how [20:56] do you know [20:56] guys how do you install a ppa package for an earlier release? [20:57] http://www.itworld.com/article/2698420/disable-overlay-scroll-bars-in-ubuntu-14-04.html [20:57] bekks, it was rw,auto,exec,users,permissions,dmask=0000,fmask=000 [20:57] delac: under preferences in firefox there's an advanced tab, under that there's options for scrolling. [20:57] thank you very much [20:57] then I removed users [20:57] !ppa | petrvs [20:57] petrvs: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

[21:15] Is their anyway to repair the command line code [21:15] Bashing-om: I want to get rid of it [21:16] ryan___: So uninstall it? I bet its documented. [21:16] EriC^^: I should know, but I actually can't remember. [21:16] Bashing-om: It's f**king up [21:16] Kratix: type uname -m [21:16] Aloha, I just installed 15.04 on a medion akoya notebook, now the wlan wont work, ubuntu see the wlan connection but cant connect to it for some reason i dont know [21:16] bekks: How do I do that [21:16] ryan___: Lemme see what I can find .. Do you recall how you installed AVG ? [21:16] EriC^^: i686 [21:17] CountryfiedLinux, This does not address 15.10, use at your own risk, it was a quick look, I expect you to do some research. http://itsfoss.com/netflix-ubuntu-1404-desktop-app/ [21:17] Ok thanks bubbasaures [21:17] CountryfiedLinux, WE want you safe is all. ;) [21:17] Bashing-om: sudo dpkg -i avg2013flx-r3115-a6155.i386.deb [21:18] Kratix: ok, it's 32bit [21:18] Is it broken? [21:18] thomas, Can you identify the hardware involved etho/wifi [21:18] bubbasaures, Pipelight is no longer supported. I'm looking for how to install chromium-widevine. [21:18] Kratix: type wget -O chntpw.deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/c/chntpw/chntpw_0.99.5-0+nmu1_i386.deb | sudo dpkg -i chntpw.deb [21:18] CountryfiedLinux, I wondered about that, never used net is all. [21:19] Kratix: type that in your home dir [21:19] bubbasaures: Its Intel Corporation Wireless 3160 , kernel driver in use: iwlwifi [21:20] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884781/ [21:21] Any Ideas Bashing-om [21:21] Kratix: ok, type sudo dpkg -i chntpw.deb [21:22] CountryfiedLinux, Not sure I found it in arch, but not ubuntu, just not sure, sorry. [21:22] EriC^^: In a new terminal? [21:22] Kratix: or the same one, np [21:22] thomasfuston, Is the wireless running? [21:22] ryan___: Takes time to look at what you "might" have done, looks like a download from AVG direct . Look'n to see if there is a provided "uninstaller" . Else yuk ! [21:22] Kratix: if the command didn't return press ctrl+c [21:23] EriC^^: Done. [21:23] Kratix: ok, did it install chntpw? [21:24] EriC^^: I think so, http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884789/ [21:24] Bashing-om: OK thank you ever so much, I only installed Ubuntu 15.04 today & I had to remove and get rid of my old O.S (Operating System) which was Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 [21:24] I've been using it in Arch bubbasaures but gonna install Ubuntu that's why I was asking. [21:26] bubbasaures: well its running, but it cant connect for some reason, syslogs telling me (disconnecting -> connecting -> authenticating -> disconnecting) [21:26] Kratix: ok, try to change the password again [21:26] bubbasaures: at the end it tells (config -> faild (reason 'ssid-not-fount') [ 50 120 53] [21:27] I have a problem with my nvidia card. I'm running two monitors of the same card and the problem is when I wake the system up. Only the left monitor comes back to life, the right one says that it doesnt get any input signal. I've tried to switch monitors and ports with out any diffrence in affect. The left monitor is the primary one. I need to restart the right monitor for the nvidia card to notice it and then sending it a signal. [21:27] thomasfuston, Not sure, is the hardware you posted the info from lspci? [21:27] Here is an output from xorg.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/11878604/ It is only a problem when the system goes to sleep, if I reboot both monitors work (until it goes to sleep again) Its a gtx960 card and I'm forced to use the drivers from xorg-edger [21:28] bubbasaures: lspci --nk | grep -i net -A2 [21:28] *-nnk [21:28] ryan___: I can see whare there may be config issues with AVG. As 15.04 now uses systemd (good) rather then upstart. I bet AVG has not set up for ubuntu 15.04 ! [21:28] Bashing-om: Aww right OK [21:29] thomasfuston, I will assume that is correct and enough info for the channel, I'm not sure here. [21:29] bubbasaures: thx :) [21:32] ryan___: Work'n on a removal command . what returns ' ls -al /var/lib/dpkg/info/avg* ' . Once we know the "name" maybe we can identify the removal script .

[21:36] Bashing-om: -bash: /opt/avg/avg2013flx/bin/uninstall.sh: No such file or directory [21:38] ryan___: OK, not .. how about ' ls -al /opt/avg/avg* | pastebinit ' See if we can find a uninstall script .

[21:43] RIdley5: does it happen on firefox? [21:43] Firefox has prevent flash plugin becose it's has vulnerability [21:43] try updating firefox [21:44] it is not the plugin [21:44] won't help, flash does have a vulnerability [21:44] *Synaptic [21:44] RIdley5: ah, that's an easy fix [21:44] RIdley5: go to about:config [21:44] toggle extensions.blocklist.enabled [21:44] Bashing-om: I've removed it via Synaptic [21:45] don't do what petrvs said [21:45] petrvs: uh, do we really want to be telling people to disable teh blocklists? [21:45] it's "true" petrvs [21:45] too bad Firefox doesn't have a pref called 'dont.try.to.be.smarter.than.end.user' that you can enable [21:45] flash IS VULNERABLE [21:45] that just seems bad [21:45] RIdley5: false would be toggled [21:45] Ben64: it always was [21:45] no [21:45] it was before Firefox moaned about it [21:45] theres a new vulnerability [21:45] yes [21:45] there always is, ben [21:45] sometimes when I apt-get remove, apt installs packages, how cna I tell it not too? For example it is trying to install pinentry-ncurses after I remove the x11 version. none of the revese dependencies are installed. [21:45] RIdley5: as far as I know, Ubuntu will not provide any updates for flash. The suggested solution is to uninstall it and hope that the website supports html5 [21:45] so don't ignore it! [21:45] thats a terrible move [21:45] the only sane move would be not using flash at all [21:45] which I doubt he's going to do [21:45] there is indeed a recent 0day in flash player [21:46] RIdley5: how about it, giving up flash? [21:46] yes drmagoo Youtube supprt HTML5 player , but Facebook not :( [21:46] ryan___: Naybe good maybe ?? .. what happens ' sudo dpkg -R -P avg2013flx ' ? [21:46] at least use chrome until this is patched [21:46] that has a sandbox at least [21:46] do not disable the warning, that's asking fro trouble [21:46] Ben64: actually at least 2 0-days have been discovered in the data-dump from "hacking team" ;) [21:46] my Firefox version is 39.0 [21:47] yes Ben64, you are right [21:47] doesn't firefox have a sandbox, too? [21:47] RIdley5: either use chrome or click "allow" for certain things that you can maybe trust [21:47] petrvs: no [21:47] why'm I reading it has, then [21:47] is chrome opensource ? [21:47] RIdley5: no, but chromium is [21:48] chromium is a google product ? [21:48] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11884874/ [21:48] Have a look [21:48] that seems like a silly question when asking about flash [21:48] RIdley5: mmm, it is mostly developed by google, eys [21:48] sometimes when I apt-get remove, apt installs packages, how can I tell it not too? For example it is trying to install pinentry-ncurses after I remove the x11 version. none of the revese dependencies are installed.

[23:11] you mean other than executing it twice? [23:12] namreeb: Yes, in one shot [23:12] why would you want to do that [23:12] im not sure if it can do that [23:12] You could put the two rsync commands into a shell script and just execute that script when needed. [23:13] petrvs: if i could run my understanding by you. As i get it to add a local app to a client build i need to do a "sudo ltsp-chroot -c -p" and then apt-get whatever packages I want available to the client correct ? [23:13] mojtaba: rsync {foo,bar}/ baz/ [23:14] not really rsync doing it in that case, though [23:14] Emexican: I want to speed up by once reading and writing at same time, in parallel [23:14] cstk421: no idea, I'd talk to #ltsp [23:14] petrvs: I will check that, thx [23:14] mojtaba: oh sorry, backwards [23:14] petrvs: i thought you were familiar with it. ok thanks [23:14] foo/ {bar,baz}/ [23:15] no I guess it doesn't work the same backwards :) [23:15] Hi. Is there any way to get a snow effect with Unity? [23:15] the most straightforward way is a loop: for dest in foo bar; do rsync -av baz "$dest"; done [23:16] easily wrapped into a bash function if you like [23:16] drfoobaz: yes, see compiz config [23:16] petrvs: I want to do it in a parallel fashion. [23:16] petrvs: There's no snow in the compizconfig settings manager. [23:17] mojtaba: man parallel, then, good luck [23:17] petrvs: And the old snow plugin doesn't work with 0.9.x [23:17] drfoobaz: you could fix it [23:17] mojtaba I do not know if that is possible with rsync in one command. I think that doing it in a shell script will only take a few extra milliseconds to perform the sync, as it will just execute the same command for the second destination. [23:17] petrvs: Explain, please? [23:17] parallel execution is frequently overrated, IMO :) [23:18] drfoobaz: so it works with 0.9.x [23:18] Does anybody know how batch mode of the rsync works? (I just did not understand it.) [23:19] I do not mojtaba. I am sorry that I could not help further! [23:19] petrvs: So there's no simple way? [23:19] Emexican: thanks anyway [23:21] is Chromium safe ? [23:21] drfoobaz: you could use old compiz [23:21] RIdley5: compared to what [23:21] to Firefox [23:21] RIdley5: not particularly [23:21] hmm [23:21] why do you ask? [23:22] cose Google products are always spying users [23:22] you asked if a google product is safer... because google products are always spying users? [23:22] or you're looking for an alternative to chrome? [23:22] chromium is safer than chrome, if spying is your concern, yes [23:22] I'd go with firefox, though [23:22] im looking for an alternative to Firefox [23:22] not that they're _so_ much better === al2o3-cr1 is now known as al2o3-cr [23:23] RIdley5: why's that? [23:23] Firefox is eating a lot of memory specialy when i play flash video [23:23] that's probably... flash :p [23:24] but if you want to compare chromium, go ahead [23:24] everybody loves FLASH [23:24] OmkAR: so true [23:24] FF started blocking flash with the latest update [23:24] it's not hard to unblock it [23:24] i dont love Flash OmkAR [23:24] (click, 'allow') [23:24] its good that people get to know how bad flash is. [23:24] not only since the latest security incident [23:25] Does anyone know what system Ubuntu Touch is using for the GUI display? I am attempting to get a DisplayLink USB monitor working on a Meizu MX4 Ubuntu Edition, and it doesnt seem to be using the full X. As of Kernel 3.9.x the display link was integrated into the kernel. For older versions of Ubuntu the package [23:25] !touch | Emexican [23:25] Emexican: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch . Support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [23:25] xserver-xorg-video-displaylink was a viable option. [23:25] true CameronE , it say that is vulnerable [23:25] ah thanks! I will connect to #ubuntu-touch! [23:25] Emexican: its using MIR. and best is to ask in #ubuntu-touch [23:26] RIdley5, it's blocked because it is actively being exploited... they said they will unblock as soon a patch is released. [23:26] RIdley5: it always was a security issue. its just that firefox is giving a warning now. [23:26] oh do you have a link for that news CameronE ? [23:26] mmm, let me find it [23:27] ok thank you [23:27] yes k1l [23:27] RIdley5, http://gizmodo.com/firefox-now-blocks-flash-by-default-1717664482 [23:27] thank you, i wanna see that ... [23:27] I didn't read that one, but it should have the same info [23:27] news == news [23:32] I keep getting "Executing 'grub install /dev/sda' failed." when I'm trying to install Ubuntu. I've tried both 15.04 and 14.10 -- This is alongside Windows 8.1 -- I've tried both options of 'Install alongside ..' and 'Something else' and choosing the partitions myself. How can I see what's happening and what can I do to address it? [23:35] @nikesh: what kind of disk setup are you running? Are you running a software RAID for example, or is the SATA controller setup with AHCI? [23:36] I'm not an ubuntu expert unfortunately, but it sounds a bit like the installation process can't address the drive. [23:38] Hi, I'm after a bit of assistance with some cleanup work on my ubuntu 12.04 LTS installation. I appear to currently have *0* inodes available and the source of most of the files is /usr/src, which appears to be a heap of linux-header folders (kernel files?). How do I go about safely cleaning this up? [23:38] My experience level is: advanced beginner [23:39] do you have seperated partitions? [23:41] SamboNZ: No RAID. I don't know if the SATA controller is setup with AHCI [23:41] I have tried running "sudo apt-get autoremove -f", but it fails due to "no space left on disk" lol === bubbasaures is now known as wileee [23:42] SamboNZ: what gives you "df -i"?

[23:45] sure [23:46] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11885267/ [23:47] SamboNZ: 9GB is very small anyway :) [23:47] yeah, it's an old install. Has 1.5gb free and doesn't do much. Would increasing the disk space also increase the available inodes? [23:48] generally yes. [23:48] ok, that might be worth doing [23:48] in the meantime, what's the best way to cleanup those old kernels? Those are the source of ~300,000 of the files! [23:48] you could try to delete stuff you dont need. especially folder with a lot of files (you dont need anymore) [23:49] SamboNZ: run "dpgk -l | grep linux-image" and dpkg -l | grep linux-header" ans pastebin the output please [23:49] *dpkg that is [23:49] I tried 'sudo apt-get autoremove -f' but it failed due to low disk space LOL [23:49] ok, will do that now [23:50] apt-get might try to create some caching files that is not going to work because no inodes are free [23:51] are you aware of using a lot of small files there? [23:51] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11885278/ [23:52] thats a lot of kernels [23:53] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11885283/ [23:53] yeah, but kernels and headers are using more space than inodes. i bet there is something hammering the device with small files. that is what is using the inodes [23:54] heh, yeah, that server's been around for a while and I don't really know what I'm doing :D [23:54] yeah your on the right track, carry on. ;) [23:54] according to some digging around with "for i in /*; do echo $i; find $i |wc -l; done", the /usr/src folder has ~300,000 files in it [23:55] SamboNZ: give that a try (its using "dry-run" for testing" : dpkg -l linux-* | awk '/^ii/{ print $2}' | grep -v -e `uname -r | cut -f1,2 -d"-"` | grep -e [0-9] | grep -E "(image|headers)" | xargs sudo apt-get --dry-run remove [23:55] if the output is ok remove the --dry-run [23:55] ok. standby [23:56] hmm... http://paste.ubuntu.com/11885291/ [23:57] we're back to the original problem now LOL [23:57] that's what I started trying to fix... [23:57] Hello! [23:57] yeah, he cant install the latest headers due to the inodes [23:58] feeling somewhat backed into a corner here!! [23:59] I'm going to install ubuntu in different partitions, is 10gb enough for / and 1gb enough for /swap?
