[00:00] ubuntu makes life worth living [00:00] I'm also asking because I'm using ubuntu 14.04, and info out there seems to be for 13.10 and earlier [00:01] if anyone knows how's the current state with mobility ati radeon drivers, info would be nice, afaik there's those fglrx that are old (I've not used them but have seen them years ago in the repos) [00:02] bashing-om: I look at 'graphicscard' line and it says under the Amd card rv710 and then next line ' subsystem: Samsung electronics co ltd device [144d:c07f] dont know if that is important [00:02] also, it seems that there are those xserver-xorg-video-[ati|radeon] [00:02] xenxo, see the !ati factoid, 2xxx 3xxx 4xxx are only supported by the open driver [00:02] !ati [00:02] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [00:03] OerHeks, ok! so no propìetary drivers for my card I guess [00:03] I'm missing my /boot on my system. If booted off a live cd, should I be able to just copy /boot from the cd to my root partition and run grub-install to repair things? [00:04] OerHeks, so, fglrx is the way [00:05] I installed them previously and got my system wrecked :/ [00:05] SleePy, you would generally just use commands while using the live, not pull from it. [00:05] well I did not install them from those repos at the howto [00:05] vigilant Bashing-om does the card in question support 3d acceleration? afaik, unity requires it. I see there is a Unity 2D reference after a bit of googling (and something is tickling my little old grey cells about the livecd using it rather than 3D unity) been a long time since I read/encountered this topic so maybe way of the mark. Anyways just a thought.... [00:06] wileee: I get an error: failed to get canonical path of '/cow' when I do it off the live cd.

[00:21] wileee: Ok, I'm hoping once /boot is repaired grub-install will work fine and then things will boot again [00:22] SleePy, you can put a grub-install in the MBR needed from a chroot, if that is all you need. [00:23] or mbr's no idea with raid [00:23] It fails because /boot was missing from the chroot, the live cd says a file is missing. [00:23] mbr is used to boot the basics which assemble the raid enough for it to continue the boot, as far as I understand it. [00:24] SleePy, hmm, you sure you would not be going to the mbr not a partition, and are you sure you were chrooted, have to ask this. [00:24] what's wrong with this: sudo add-apt-repository lp:ubuntu/wily-proposed [00:24] yep, mounted my root on /mnt, did the --bind mounts for things and then chroot /mnt.

[00:26] Ben64: it gives me the same error [00:27] bashing-om: no but , I tried earlier with ubuntu 15.04 and got same problem.

[00:37] squinty: This one is a head scratcher, every thjing seems in order, permissions are good, just no load on the GUI . On a clean fresh install . No errors anywhere I can find . [00:37] wileee: I may end up just reinstalling the system, would hate to do that, but been spending hours trying to get /boot repaired and grub working again [00:37] btw gnome fallback gives to options at log on. metacity and compiz seems he maybe having a compiz related issue with that error message [00:37] SleePy, Not a hard fix if everything is good, however grub 2 is really what you want, so just stay cool. [00:38] Bashing-om, no kidding... I have been following your discussion on this while lurking in the background. very strange [00:38] SleePy, YOU have spent hours, but you were not informed on what you had, so a reinstall is not really a fix, this is easily fixable if all is working in the raid. [00:38] wileee: Well I could attempt a upgrade to grub2. Not sure how well that would go while using the live cd [00:39] SleePy, STOP AND GET HELP!!!!!!!!! [00:39] ;) [00:39] * squinty starts humming "stop in the name of love" [00:39] heh [00:39] bashing-om: 1b305d585b1918f297164add46784116 ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso [00:39] SleePy, Ubuntu has been using grub2 since 9.10... you should not have 0.97 [00:40] bashing-om: the iso checks out, should I check the disk completely too? [00:40] bashing-om: or the usb I mean [00:40] psusi: Interesting, as I fresh installed this with 14.04... [00:41] wileee: Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Worse case, I spend a night setting up my media server again, all my data is on the 4 drive raid 10, so nothing loss other than setting up all the samba shares again [00:41] SleePy, 14.04 would not install that grub [00:41] vigilant_: Yes .. ( there is an option in the liveUSB boot menu - check disk for defects - // Question: is this lap top with an external display ? the xorg error may be related to that . [00:42] bashing-om: no external display [00:42] SleePy, where did you see that old version number? [00:43] psusi, I had him run a command [00:43] psusi: I ran that command while inside the chroot [00:43] vigilant_, Bashing-om, wife just came home with supper so have to go. good luck guys hope you figure the problem out :-) [00:43] if you mount your root fs ( on the raid10 or separate? ) from the livecd, bind mount /proc, /dev, /dev/pts, and /sys into it, then chroot into it, you should be able to use grub-install to reinstall it [00:43] psusi, sudo grub-install -v anyway carry on. [00:43] which command? [00:43] ahh [00:43] squinty: thanks :) good supper [00:43] I seem to remember that the livecd actually has *both* versions of grub installed [00:44] so grub-install gets you grub-legacy, and grub2-install gets you grub2 [00:44] we probably should get rid of grub-legacy from the live images finally [00:44] hallelujah [00:44] Actually, outside the chroot grub-install -v just tries to install and grub2-install isn't found [00:45] but, you don't want to run the one on the livecd really anyhow... chroot into the hd first and run it from there [00:45] vigilant_: Confirmed the md5sum " 1b305d585b1918f297164add46784116 [00:45] ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso [00:45] preferably via dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc, so that dpkg remembers where you installed it and upgrades it properly [00:45] chroot doesn't have grub2 either [00:46] enter the chroot and run apt-cache policy grub-pc [00:46] squinty: Bon apetete ! [00:46] How do I know what timezone cron is running on? [00:47] psusi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11917442/ [00:47] x0rs, your local tz [00:47] psusi: so, "date" will tell me? [00:47] SleePy, that is very strange... you *should* have grub2 unless you have been upgrading since before ubuntu 9.10... install it in the chroot I guess... apt-get install grub-pc [00:48] x0rs, yea [00:48] psusi, ok thank you [00:50] bashing-om: the clean install without internet or any updates does not work [00:50] bashing-om: seems the updates somehow makes it possible for the login screen to come up haha, clean install without internet makes only purple screen [00:51] bashing-om: looks like normal ubuntu woud but without everything exept the background [00:53] Ben64: I figured it out... I had to ctrl+c out of the installer after it extracted the msi file, then use 7-zip to extract the msi [00:53] vigilant_: That does not make sense at all to me . The standard desktop install will install with no internet connection at all . hummmmm [00:53] after it extracted the msi and before it crashed [00:53] psusi: I was able to do that and when I ran grub-install on the root drives it worked, but no such luck on getting a successful boot. Getting closer it seems like [00:54] bashing-om: yes it installed completely but on reboot, it comes up with the compiz crash error, and when I click continue it just becomes the purple background with nothing [00:54] SleePy, first, you shouldn't need to run grub-install.. installing grub-pc should have giving you a screen asking to pick what drives to install it to... if not, you can force it with dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc [00:54] SleePy, second, what happens when you try to boot? [00:55] psusi: It didn't :( I will try a dpkg-reconfigure though here in a few [00:55] Just a black screen with _ [00:55] bashing-om: ' check finished, error found in two files ' [00:55] bashing-om: I did the ' check disk for errors ' [00:55] prior to having grub-install run it would give a message that no bootable media could be found. [00:55] i'm betting that you still are using grub-legacy... the other reason it is important to use dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc is so that when grub is upgraded, it gets reinstalled automatically, lest the upgrade break your boot [00:56] SleePy, btw, are you installing to the raid disks or another boot disk? and are the disks partitioned using gpt or mbr? [01:00] vigilant_: ! well, well .. reburn and try the disk check again . I bet those errors are for the compiz files, huh ? [01:00] Bashing-om: but it doesnt say what files it is for hmm [01:01] Bashing-om: and I did install 15.04 from the same usb with different iso for 15.04 [01:01] psusi: mbr, I am installing grub to the raid disks that run the root partition. After running dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc, it gave me the menu and I told it to install grub on the 2 root drives again and rebooted. Same thing [01:01] Bashing-om: with the excact same problem? [01:02] vigilant_: Still, if the install medium is not 100%, the install it's self can not be 100% . [01:02] SleePy, what do you mean two root drives? I thought you had 4 drives in the raid array? [01:02] Bashing-om: so maybe the usb is broken and should not be used? I deleted everything on it completely between the two isos being put on it. [01:03] vigilant_: Maybe the USB is bad ? I do a lot of installs and my preference for the install medium is a DVD ( my preference ) . [01:03] Bashing-om: its just strange that its the exact same problem with the two installs of different versions of ubuntu. [01:04] psusi: The 4 drives are for a raid 10 that holds my media (/data). I have 2 other drives in a raid 1 that holds the root (/) [01:04] SleePy, ahh.. make sure your bios is set to boot from the right drive [01:04] psusi: I just found my bios had forgot the boot order and I think it was booting to the wrong drive. Now that I fixed it, it boots up a memtest instantly. Thats better... [01:04] vigilant_: common factor is the USB . Got another on hand OR a DVD ? [01:05] Bashing-om: hmm, I will search! :D [01:05] SleePy, out of curiosity, why the two separate boot drives? === Mitchell92 is now known as Mitchell92[A] [01:05] psusi: I am making a guess I need to go back in and run a update-grub or similar command [01:05] SleePy, also media is generally better on raid5 than raid10... you get more usable space and media generally doesn't care about the raid5 bad random write performance [01:06] psusi: They are redundant OS drives, I can fail one and still boot [01:06] Bashing-om: haha I just remember I just bought one of those tiny usb, I will try it, it has ubuntu on it too [01:06] SleePy, if you have 6 drives, you can use all 6 together... part for raid10 for os, rest raid5 for media... I do that with 3 drives myself [01:07] psusi: I also use it for backups of other systems, so it gets lots of writes as well still. The 2 os drives are smaller drives than the 4 for the raid 10 (500 gb for OS, 1 TB drives for raid) [01:07] yes, but backups generally do large sequential writes, not lots of random small writes [01:07] ahh, different size... good reason [01:07] Bashing-om: checking it for defects === knob is now known as Guest33267 [01:08] I guess thats true, could reconfigure it to be a raid 5 [01:09] Bashing-om: no errors found :D :D [01:09] Bashing-om: installing [01:09] vigilant_: Pins and needles while I wait . This just might be the culprit . [01:10] psusi: did a update-grub2, it found 2 memtest images, no mention of the kernel :\ [01:12] Going to try to reinstall linux-image-generic and hopefully that gets everything happy [01:13] psusi: That did it, thanks for all your help. Thanks wileee as well. Booting system and working again [01:13] SleePy, sounds like you are on the right track.. might have a look in /boot first though to see if there are any kernels there [01:14] guys does partitioning a virtualbox OS [01:15] partition the actual disk which can screw w/ the ubuntu i'm running [01:15] virtualbox on [01:15] gentooScrub, You're not making sense [01:16] SleePy, Cool, good job, that was the right help from the other helper. ;) [01:17] Bashing-om: its downloading a lot of updates as it installs, so it takes longer time [01:18] vigilant_ Solitair does not care , take the time needed . [01:19] wileee, if i am partioning a linux operating system inside the Oracle VM VirtualBox and I use fdisk or other tools to partition the disk to say [01:19] /dev/sda1 to boot [01:19] wileee: You helped lots, got me on the right track to figuring things out. And that I somehow had grub-legacy [01:19] /dev/sda2 to swap [01:19] /dev/sda3 linux etc... [01:19] does that actually use the physical disk or a virtual disk [01:20] gentooScrub, if in the vm it is the vm [01:20] wileee, okie thx [01:20] gentooScrub, booted in the vm, you understand I believe. ;) [01:20] yes, for some reason my disk can't read the HDD when i boot gentoo using HDD [01:21] gentooScrub, You have to link the vm to the hd after an install. [01:21] as a read [01:21] wileee, do you mean install grub2? [01:22] not sure how to link the vm to hd [01:22] gentooScrub, be really clear when you're describing boot is this on the computer or th e vm. [01:22] wileee, this is on the vm [01:22] gentooScrub, You don't boot the main HD from a VM, is that what you mean? [01:23] wileee, no no lol [01:23] wileee, it's all good though [01:23] gentooScrub, A vm is like having a jailed OS, really hard to understand you, be clear. [01:24] vigilant_: I have thunder storms approaching, I may have to shut down on you . [01:24] wileee, just wanted to make sure partitioning an OS in a VM won't actualyl affect my /dev/sda partitions on my disk [01:25] Bashing-om: wow :) yeah you should stay safe!, thanks for all the help, I think it will work now, soon ready downloading [01:25] gentooScrub, its a vm, it wont [01:25] ;gentooScrub, Fair concern, no it just do the voodoo that it do in the vm . ;) [01:26] bazhang, wileee alrighty :) [01:26] Bashing-om, Stay away from the ground [01:26] q [01:27] how does the VM work though. If I give an OS 5gigs of Memory, does the virtualbox take away from my /dev/sda3 partition where my Linux/ext4 Filesystem is on to make it from 304G to 299G? [01:27] maybe I'll check my disk to see lol [01:27] nvm that question [01:27] heh [01:27] is there a fb messenger app that's the standard? i didn't find anything from a basic google search [01:27] Bashing-om: restarting :D [01:28] oh damn it doesn't show in the disk [01:28] gentooScrub, All the same concerns I had the first time. [01:29] gentooScrub, When you build a vm with vbox it is in it's file in home. [01:29] unless put elsewhere [01:29] You could boot your 'real' partition [01:30] Bashing-om: aaaahhhh, it doesnt work, same problem :\ [01:30] wileee, that makes sense [01:30] !who | si_kabayan [01:30] si_kabayan: As you can see, this is a large channel.

[01:31] backup* [01:31] vigilant_: YUK ! Think'n again . [01:32] si_kabayan, No biggie, ;) [01:32] gentooScrub: what is this 'not sure how to link the vm to hd'? [01:33] You want to see HD from inside your VM?

[01:49] CB6: using those commands it should say something about OK or such [01:49] k [01:50] CB6, Finish as teward has suggested, but you can add repos and keys all in one command in ppa's anyway. [01:50] ^ that [01:50] wileee: does that apply to private PPAs as well? [01:50] Do you guys have dual monitors? I'm finding the going between screens is a pain unless you move the cursor fast. It stops on the edge making you force a fast push through or it stops on the edge of the screen [01:50] CB6: alt+tab is what i use to alt-tab through [01:50] and copy/paste :) [01:51] teward, I've never seen that a private, my guess is yes, lok at a regular ppa for this command it is the same, except for the ppa name on everyone.

[01:53] summers are prone to brown outs in many areas. Definitely bad news for PSU's. I've noted my PSU has been running pretty hot this summer. Can't be good [01:54] I'm trying to install ubuntu 14.04 LTS onto a laptop (MSI GE Series GE62 Apache Pro-219), and and the installer is crashing with "Kernel panic - not syncing: Timeout synchronizing machine check over CPUs". The full error is here: http://i.imgur.com/UjzF7vd.jpg (Sorry for the poor quality) Can anyone help me with how I should go about troubleshooting this? I'm not having luck googling it myself. [01:54] Bashing-om: its a mystery indeed [01:54] i just unplug all the computers when the storm approaches. and then i'm jammed in between tablets and netbooks. [01:56] I'm feeling like a jerk here. It keeps asking me if I'm root. Isn't sudo to log you into root? [01:56] Sudo is to do a single command as root [01:57] The next command will ask for permission too if it needs it as well [01:57] yes it is! i think it gives you a (is it 15 minutes) grace period. [01:57] except on Ubuntu, where it's to do any command as root [01:57] sudo is one way, therre are others... [01:57] I thought. [01:57] anyway i can sync my Apple Device With Itunes 10? [01:57] Bashing-om: I found this bug which could maybe be related? I could try installing lightdm? how do I do that? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/1385606 [01:57] Launchpad bug 1385606 in gdm (Ubuntu) "Black screen when entering GDM login page" [Critical,Confirmed] [01:57] Funny question but does that mean anything after && would be disregarded then? [01:58] vigilant_: Lemme look . be right back . [01:58] if you can do itunes on ubuntu... lucky lol. I tried for a while and settled for google play (drag and drop songs en masse.) [01:58] if you can avoid iTunes, smart you [01:58] then i download them on my tablets for later so i can listen to them on the bus. quite a complex process tbh. [01:59] sounds it [01:59] so i cant sync my device with itunes 10? [01:59] make better choices and that won't happen [01:59] cain-pol: sure you can, but why do you need to? [02:00] you might have trouble doing it. getting wine so it can run in compatibility mode? [02:00] $ apt-get install wine [02:00] reisio, how do i sync my device? [02:00] cain-pol: why do you want to sync it? [02:01] Anyone else ever seen a kernel panic during installation? [02:01] reisio, i find it easier to downloand music on itunes, instead of on my device [02:01] riobe: what good does the answer to that question do you [02:01] cain-pol: so you buy it through iTunes? [02:01] i never did. and I'm quite a distro-hopper. i never saw a kernel panic on installation. [02:02] reisio, yeah [02:02] wileee: there's no mechanism to add private ppas like add-apt-repository does for public ppas [02:02] reisio: Cause then I could ask how it was resolved, and maybe that'd help me figure out how to google my way into something relevant to helping with my problem [02:02] I don't know how to troubleshoot my issue. [02:02] riobe: usually with poorly supported hardware or memory issue [02:02] or bad copy of the iso [02:02] cain-pol: best solution to that is to find another store, but you can irrationally stick with iTunes if you want [02:03] Learning pretty quick there's not much recursive wise in the cmd line. Logging in for each instance while looking at the screen strikes me as illogical. [02:03] reisio, so how do i sync my device with itunes 10? [02:03] i really like google play. if you can pick up your songs from itunes and drop them on google play, you can pull them out on any other device on the internet. [02:03] jamesd_: Well, it's a new laptop, so if it's not supported I'm not gonna be able to switch it out. Just redownloaded the iso and reburned. I'm starting to think I might not be able to install ubuntu at all [02:03] vigilant_: Do not see the relevance , but will not hurt to try , also might force the desktop to autodetect ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ' . See if anything results . [02:03] jamesd_: Thanks for giving me the scenarios you know about though. [02:04] cain-pol: you'd want a Windows or Mac OS installation [02:04] you should be able to. maybe wrong architecture? (x32 / x64) [02:04] riobe: google your laptop and ubuntu perhaps others have allready run into the problem, also down load an iso with a memory tester on it and let it run for a few yours. [02:04] er hours [02:04] how do i reinstall wwin [02:04] cain-pol: you can just put it in a VM [02:04] reisio, how do i reinstall windows [02:04] jamesd_: Thanks for the idea. ^.^ [02:04] but changing your OS because you are pointlessly loyal to a music store is... quite silly [02:05] music is for sale all over the internet [02:05] To reinstall windows, insert disk, follow on-screen instructions. make sure to have backups... [02:05] reisio, VM whats that [02:05] cain-pol: virtual machine [02:05] www.virtualbox.org lets you install an OS in another OS. we use it a lot at school. [02:05] reisio, is it like virtual box? [02:05] also handy if you don't trust a program with your whole computer. [02:06] Bashing-om: ' package 'xserver-org' is not installed and no information is available. ' [02:06] cain-pol: yup [02:06] it's exactly that! ;) [02:06] reisio, so how do get windows on virtual box? [02:06] cain-pol, buy it [02:07] vigilant_: shucks, 15.04 .. That may be a whole new ball of wax . lemme check with my 14.04 . [02:07] cain-pol: for iTunes? You don't see how that's a huge waste of time for unwarranted app loyalty? [02:07] reisio, how do i buy it? [02:07] insert disk (after downloading virtualbox) , and install from there. no disk? buy it or make a .iso image from another computer (uhh i don't remember how..) [02:07] cain-pol: you don't need to buy it, you already have a copy [02:07] Anyone have any clue why a brand new install of lightworks would show the install as expired license on a fresh install? I've now successfully done all updates so it shouldn't be a versioning issue. [02:07] gh [02:07] reisio, im so confused.. [02:08] I couldn't find an appropriate lwks channel === pat_ is now known as Guest45011 [02:08] restore disks / repair disks? they would use your activation code. [02:08] cain-pol: I can tell [02:08] lightworks? [02:08] resio, pm me [02:08] cain-pol: you can buy music from a store other than iTunes; I highly advise you do so [02:08] lightworks is a video editing suite for Linux also known as lwks [02:08] vigilant_: dpkg -l xserver-xorg >> ii xserver-xorg 1:7.7+1ubunt amd64 X.Org X server . Valid in 14.04 . [02:09] ooh! cool! :D i usually don't take videos, but sometimes i like taking a short webcam video and talk a bit on youtube. [02:09] reisio, am i able to sync to my Apple device though? [02:09] Lightworks is supposed to be the best. I used Kdenlive but it's somewhere in between. [02:10] is it more for syncing the device or for the music you ened it, though? [02:10] I produced raw M2T files and can't edit them at the moment lol. [02:10] ios7 yes, ios8 no [02:10] i used shutter / cheese, but nothing much more. [02:10] Is that HDV/DV capable? [02:10] I don't need fancy lol [02:10] i also used bandicam at some point (on windows 8) for my Spore videos. [02:11] Xelement, both syncing and music [02:11] uhhh i'm not sure lol. not used to most terms. if it works for me, i'm happy. [02:11] oh yikes. i don't think that'll work. but there might be another iTunes replacement? [02:11] I honestly found the usage of video editing a lot easier on linux so far but Kdenlive is a little buggy and is crashing. [02:12] Xelement, and what is that replacement [02:12] not sure cain-pol. might be jamendo or tangerine. software changes like weather. [02:13] Xelement, haha okay.. [02:13] CB6 i used to have a hard time with the video resolution. nice on screen, garbage on youtube. [02:13] and Thanks for the help... [02:13] this is my first night on the IRC. so im not used to it yet. [02:14] no problem! :D [02:14] I'm noticing relative but I suspect it might be the camera. I don't know really [02:14] Xelement i'll probably be back anyways xD [02:14] bit of digitization when the camera pans but for a 2008 HD camcorder not too bad lol [02:14] it was one of the first sub 1000 camcorders the Canon HV 20 [02:15] cain-pol: Ubuntu should allow you to sync data to and from your iPhoo out of the box [02:15] vigilant_: Lemme check that " xserver-xorg " is supposed to be installed in 15.04 . [02:16] cain-pol i will eventually have to go sleep, but knowing me, i'm a bat. needs glasses and doesn't sleep ;) [02:16] reisio, it does let me but it doesnt allow me to do it on itunes 10 [02:16] Xelement, haha [02:17] cain-pol: indeed not, iTunes 10 is programmed specifically only to help Apple get paid [02:17] the least awful way to do what you want is with a VM [02:17] but it's a total waste of time [02:18] reisio, so i cant use a different program at all [02:18] i think a virtualbox would be the best, yes. and saves a lot of configuration. it breaks? no problem. delete and make another one.. takes 30 seconds. or just recover it. [02:18] cain-pol: you can use a different program to buy music and sync to an iPhoo, yes [02:19] how do i use virtual box... [02:19] ask #vbox [02:20] thanks... [02:20] #box [02:20] welp... [02:20] #vbox [02:21] cain-pol i use Google play, and it only needs me to open a browser at www.play.google.com and log in (it doesn't matter if you're on apple. just make an acct there) and drop your music there. that's what i do since (well... forever, almost!) works on any computer, because it's web-based. from your device, download the songs there and you can listen without wasting bandwidth, to your heart's content! [02:21] vigilant_: Surprise, surprise " xserver-xorg " is not included in 15.04 . [02:22] @Cain-Pol #vbox is another IRC room i think ;) [02:22] this is the real problem with Apple things [02:22] it's not that you pay twice as much for them [02:22] it's that people think there is no alternative [02:23] Bashing-om: think I could do what this person did on 10.10? ' sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati [02:23] sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' from this page? http://blog.littleimpact.de/index.php/2011/03/25/ubuntu-linux-1010-on-samsung-np-r540/ [02:24] reisio i had the same problem before. it made me ditch my iMac for the huge 27 inch behemoth HP machine with a touchscreen. the moment windows 10 screws up... even once... it's (pun intended) going out the window. [02:25] I feel sorrier than ever for Windows users [02:25] i still have an iPad mini, but it should feel VERY lucky to be in a otterbox... i have my temper sometimes xD [02:25] I'm sure the otterbox people's bank accounts feel very lucky, at any rate :p [02:25] !defenistrate | squinty [02:26] reisio i know the feeling. i'm just stalling out the warranty and switching OS after it expires [02:26] Bashing-om: Im falling asleep on my sofa, its 4:25 am here in Norway hehe, I have to go to sleep, thanks so much for trying to help. I will continue tommorow and hopefully resolve this issue eventually. [02:26] Lol! they're by far the best cases, but also the most expensive! [02:26] defenestrate* [02:26] I had a phone case once [02:26] before I figured out they just take up space and money [02:27] everything is already designed to be durable and scratch resistant [02:27] i don't use smartphones. i watch people walk into things and laugh, but i still don;t use them lol [02:27] :p [02:27] Hi, does anybody know how to configure synergy?

Super annoying having lots of screens up. [02:29] try synergyc -f ip.of.server [02:29] or use qsynergy [02:29] in the top bar, the 3rd button, i think, from the left.)

[02:33] llol I don't even know if I'm running gnome sadly. Whatever default ubuntu is. I've heard fluxbox is cool. [02:34] Unity is Ubuntu. KDE is Kubuntu, XFCE is Xubuntu, LXDE is Lubuntu. [02:34] I'm running Elementary OS Freya for now. super stable on my old netbook! [02:35] reisio: I have used an encryption option. should I include this somewhere when trying to connect from the client? [02:35] Xelement: compared to what [02:35] mojtaba: what option? [02:35] reisio: I think it was obf === Guest36061 is now known as sysop2 [02:36] reisio not compared to anything, just in general. [02:36] mmm [02:37] encryption as in full-dick encryption?

[02:37] yup! i'm paranoid lol [02:37] reisio: It is one [02:37] Xelement: won't make your system more secure [02:38] probably not just a hindrance though.

[02:40] I know flash is a security nightmare but how is everyone doing things like speedtests to see if their connection is up to par if flash isn't on chromium? [02:40] Ooh. i don't know what synergy is for. for that, i'll watch you guys and learn ;) [02:40] html5. [02:40] reisio: Do you have any idea? [02:40] lol some devs say html5 is just as buggy [02:40] or i use flashblocker as an extension. and scriptsafe. [02:41] those devs are right xD [02:41] XSS comes to mind [02:41] if they can do that there's a lot of other things.. more moving parts basically [02:41] *heavy breathing* *big eyes hearing xss* [02:41] meh [02:43] lol can't trust the web these days. i had to reinstall windows 8.1 about 4 times on the big computer (gosh. make those 3 years of warranty fly by please.) [02:43] Adobe just always sucked at making applications [02:43] "HTML" has ages of open, secure development practices behind it [02:43] apparently so does lightworks on their registration. This is brutal [02:43] you can also do most things Flash does without anything that even _requires_ security of any kind [02:43] i hate adobe! i purposely get gimp and other pdf viewers to boycott the big red adobe monster. [02:43] like you don't need cookies to make a stupid animation [02:43] you don't need filesystem access [02:43] or webcam access [02:44] I always found those options very creepy [02:44] just check phone or mobile apps. it's hell with the photos permission! creepy! [02:44] or location. that one is worse. [02:44] Even more creepy things like hardware being on without you knowing because the software determines if the LED is on not the hardware... [02:45] i have a slider on my webcam. the moment Snowden spoke, i listened. i know he was right. it's a feeling. he describes the things vile humans would do. [02:45] I was of the mindset any webcam activated should always show an LED on when the camera is active but that's driven by software. [02:45] spectrum/metasploit.. sketch ya [02:46] exactly. gosh that's creepy to think of... [02:46] Does anybody know how to connect the client to the server in the synergy? [02:46] CB6: sometimes it's driven by software [02:46] it's easy to disable a webcam though [02:46] just disable the driver [02:46] I have nothing interesting but the fact that some weirdo can bothers me lol. It should be a law to have the LED on when cameras are active to protect people. [02:46] I have this config file in the server side, should I also copy it to the client side? http://paste.ubuntu.com/11917813/ [02:47] lol they have bios exploits.. exploit for everything now [02:47] Mind you they did a decade ago but nothing like now. [02:47] I just want something solid that works lol [02:48] well, i gotta go to sleep guys. this was my first night on IRC and I loved it. Expect me back on soon ;) I'm taking an IT course and operate on the philosophy that anything I do to help others teaches me too, therefore i should help others for free so that someday I can become better at it. Have a good night! :D <3 [02:48] Is 14.04 LTS pretty solid? [02:48] it is. LTS after all! [02:48] Debian. Elementary OS. www.debian.org www.elementary.io [02:49] those are rock solid and super stable. in my opinion anyways ;) [02:49] l8r [02:49] you too! :D [02:53] Is it me, or are the servers that apt-get hits being really really slow right now? [02:53] wad, tons of servers, switch, none run at the same speed. [02:54] wad, There is a gui to change mirrors software & sources 1st tab. [02:55] Ah, okay. [02:56] I was just trying to update a linux box, and got bored after 15 minutes of very slow download. [02:56] hello anyone know how to setup wimax? [02:56] is wimax still a thing? [02:57] i guess [02:58] hello all. I have14.04 installed on a machine, when booting it gives me the /tmp not ready, If I ignore, nothing happens, the screen just goes blank. If I go to manual option and enter mount -o remount, rw /, then restart, I get the same error message. Any help to get this up and running would be great [02:58] Would the best thing to do be boot from a USB media, and try to recover? [02:59] is there some hardening one should do for Ubuntu or is it pretty secure by default. I suspect people on linux become relatively complacent of security. [02:59] ablest1980: Sory, I have no idea. My thinkpad is wimax capable but there isn't any providers in my area. [02:59] hi guys, I'm trying to launch a game called Ark in steam, and it's crashing every time. I've installed and reinstalled twice now.

[03:00] wubi* [03:00] I'm not sure if it's an ubuntu error really, just was hoping someone could take a look and see if anything in the crash report stands out. [03:00] nicomachus: I would try steam user forums. [03:01] i need to install a couple RPM files. what do you guys suggest? should i rpm convert it or just find an rpm installer? [03:01] might be a steam channel on IRC [03:01] nicomachus, #ubuntu-steam channel here on freenode [03:01] ooooh ubuntu-steam, nice. Thanks squinty [03:02] I just looked and appears to be lots of IRC steam chans [03:02] DJ_HaMsTa, Wubi is not supported [03:03] en1gma: the tool you seek is called alien. [03:03] DJ_HaMsTa, And a really bad idea. [03:03] Evening folks. Recommended method for remote desktops? I'd prefer not to deal with a shared key or anything - authentication should be done with local user. [03:04] please what is the commmand to stop isc-dhcp-server ? [03:04] For new users sudo ufw enable .. this activates the firewall [03:04] loby: typically service $service stop [03:04] DJ_HaMsTa, We can help you get a dual boot or a virtual going if you like. ;) [03:04] efox thanks [03:05] assuming this is upstart === Blaster is now known as Guest32504 [03:05] id like dual boot.. [03:05] Isn't firewall active by default? [03:05] windows and ubuntu [03:05] en1gma: You're welcome [03:05] i tried sudo service isc-dhcp-server stop and i got " stop: Unknown instance: " [03:06] DJ_HaMsTa, Cool, be sure to use the nick of whom you answer here is all. [03:06] wileee, got it! thank youy [03:06] loby: what release are you using? trusty? precise? [03:06] DJ_HaMsTa, No problem, you have a windows 8 setup? [03:06] 14.10 [03:07] wileee, heck no lol, im on win7.. [03:07] uh I'm going to take a big stab here [03:07] loby: try reloading initctl and stop [03:07] initctl reload-configuration [03:07] why ius google chrome acting so stupid [03:07] and then service isc-dhcp-server stop [03:07] DJ_HaMsTa, Okay we just want to conform the HD's setup is all, we can do that from a live ubuntu. [03:07] it's not saving sessions [03:07] all my extensions stopped working [03:07] mekhami: go ask the chromium/chrome team. [03:07] did anyone else update chrome and get completely fucked by it [03:08] confirm DJ_HaMsTa bad spelling [03:08] wileee, i have two hard drives, one with windows the second one will be using ubuntu [03:08] DJ_HaMsTa, Great, again we just need to run a couple of commands in ubuntu, the live to get you going. [03:08] loby: I'm hoping this won't work, but also try /etc/init.d/isc-dhcp-server stop [03:08] if you want to now anyway DJ_HaMsTa [03:09] so. [03:09] wileee, i dont yet have ubuntu, im now creating the universal usb installer [03:09] Recommended VNC or RDP server? [03:09] its extracting the files [03:09] DJ_HaMsTa, Excellent, really great help here, so ask as needed. ;) [03:10] got the same output "stop: Unknown instance: " [03:10] loby: how do you know you have it/running it? [03:11] DJ_HaMsTa, Is this a W7 that was installed by the manufacturer, I ask as file systems changed in windows with W8. Some will put earlier windos on theses is all. [03:11] can i disable it temporary and the activate it when i need it ? [03:11] wileee, no, i installed the OS [03:11] wileee, its a custom made pc [03:11] DJ_HaMsTa, Ah, could be a UEFI is why I ask, do you know? [03:11] sudo status isc-dhcp-server [03:12] does this look right? http://pastebin.com/C6fZP9UE [03:12] key? [03:12] wileee, i did see UEFI in the bios somewhere, more than likely its enabled [03:12] loby: I'm going to suggest a Bad Thing and say "just go ps hunting and kill it" [03:12] !uefri | DJ_HaMsTa look through here than just to get orientated [03:12] wileee, will that be an issue with buntu? [03:13] !uefi | DJ_HaMsTa look through here than just to get orientated [03:13] DJ_HaMsTa look through here than just to get orientated: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [03:13] DJ_HaMsTa, the boot [03:13] mainly [03:13] and why is it bad , and how to kill it ? [03:14] loby: ps aux | grep isc or dhcp or isc-dhcp or something, find the process, and kill it. [03:14] DJ_HaMsTa, Uefi if on and partitioned as such has specif install parameters basically. [03:15] en1gma: what is it your are trying to install? OpenCL? [03:15] wileee, okie, im going to boot and see how it goes, the usb drive is ready. i will check for uefi [03:15] yep [03:16] DJ_HaMsTa, Great be sure to read that wiki, you may have to hit the bios [03:18] en1gma: You should be able to find a .deb and instructions with a bit of google fu. [03:20] en1gma: http://wiki.tiker.net/OpenCLHowTo [03:21] nice find [03:21] thanks [03:21] well i think its too old though [03:22] to many things changed since then [03:22] what is the command to kill a proccess ? [03:23] en1gma: are you sure? bottom of the page says "OpenCLHowTo (last edited 2015-04-04 07:35:38 by ::ffff:94" [03:23] loby: kill === dbbnrl_ is now known as dbbnrl [03:24] tonyyarusso ; the proccess is " 6605 pts/1 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto isc-dhcp-server " how to kill it just "kill 6605" ? [03:24] yea that driver is from 2013 and its not even close to same anymore [03:24] bbiam [03:25] loby: Yup, unless you want to specify a non-default signal. [03:26] its says " bash: kill: (6647) - No such process [03:27] how do i watch netflix ? [03:27] the0: Install Google Chrome to watch Nexflix DRM content [03:27] Google Chrome, not Chromium browser [03:27] any other way? I really don't like google [03:28] tonyyarusso; I tried pkill 6637 and when i check with sudo status isc-dhcp-server i find it still running ? [03:28] do you think it would work, if i made firefox pretend to be chrome? [03:29] loby: could try different signals then. [03:29] the0, let us know if that works [03:30] will do [03:30] We still end up with chrome, the only drm browser... [03:31] drm ? [03:31] tonyyarusso ; what do you mean by " specify a non-default signal. [03:31] loby: eg kill -9 (more forceful kill) [03:32] no it doesn't work [03:33] almost though, it tricks netflix into trying [03:33] the0, Kinda like turning on a light and watching the roaches run [03:33] is there an open source equivalent of microsoft silverlight? [03:34] the0: Yes, but I don't think it's being actively developed anymore. [03:35] the0: http://pipelight.net/cms/ [03:38] maybe I'll get wine and install it on wine ? [03:39] Is there a linux mirror to send SMS messages to an APP so if you receive a message on your phone it also sends to your Linux box of which you can reply to from there? Apple has a sync feature for texts. I'd imagine linux must also. [03:40] the0: you can install pipelight (wine) & silverlight http://www.webupd8.org/2013/08/pipelight-use-silverlight-in-your-linux.html you'll end up with restrictive elements, it that the reason you don't want to simply use Google Chrome¿ [03:40] CB6: you can use Pushbullet, there is an extension for Firefox and an unnoficial indicator for Unity desktop [03:40] whats restrictive elements, and no I don't use anything google except the search engine because of all their privacy invasion [03:41] Thanks [03:41] what's the best app to model my database tables? [03:42] Is chromium popular in Linux or not so much? [03:42] yes [03:42] wondering if pushbullet might be available to it [03:43] seems like it is [03:43] it's available on chrome, so possibly [03:43] I just use/preffer Firefox [03:44] me too [03:44] same here [03:44] You guys use it and like it? [03:44] firefox? [03:44] yes [03:44] yeah [03:44] Firefox! [03:44] pushbullet lol [03:45] oh [03:45] lol [03:45] oh, I've use it but I preffer my phone notifications on my phone [03:45] never heard of it but im installing it atm [03:45] So annoying having to login to my cell constantly to reply to texts. I lose a ton of time having to do that [03:46] login to your cell ? the four digit code ? [03:47] imagine that, you can only login with facebook and google info... fucking privacy thieves everywhere ! [03:47] !language [03:47] pretty much [03:47] The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [03:48] wileee, its installed, while installing it said that a diff OS was using UEFI and i declined to continue with forcing UEFI. [03:48] dual boot did not install, however. [03:49] UEFI is brutal. I tried going the thumbdrive root. No cigar there. Wish there was a way to check if thumb drives were adequate. I've been told kingston works good though so will pick up one of those soon. [03:50] stay away from sandisk drives, well at least the ones with usb 3.0, didn't have any luck there [03:50] CB6: I just remember Xubuntu and Lubuntu (ubuntu mate too?) use both ubuntu indicators so the unnoficial client should work there too, and for KDE there is this project called KDE connect [03:50] DJ_HaMsTa, Did you read that wik I gave you on UEFI? [03:51] wiki* [03:51] I have default Ubuntu right now. Can't even seem to get the stupid Lightworks to run lol [03:51] if the other systems (Windows Vista/7/8, GNU/Linux...) of your computer are installed in UEFI mode, then you must install Ubuntu in UEFI mode too. [03:51] oh [03:51] heh [03:52] the warning just scared me, said that the other os might not boot if installed in uefi mode [03:52] tells me brand new install has an expired license and I tried to make a new pw with the exact same thing. I updated/upgraded all packages with auto remove to make sure no garbage is in there. Also updated all keys. No success even with a new account login. Makes no sense at all. [03:52] DJ_HaMsTa, Ah, so are you set? [03:52] wileee, it booted, it works, just no dual boot but no issues.. i just go into the bios and select the other drive [03:53] wileee, im going to reinstall using uefi mode! [03:53] DJ_HaMsTa, Heh, I think you have got it. ;) [03:54] since it's so busy here right now, does anyone know anything about 'fingerprint-gui' , It's a fingerprint scanner, I've got it to take and store my prints, and it tests fine, I just dunno how to make ubuntu ask me for the swipe like it does when im in test mode [03:54] hello everyone, After the login window I'm presented with a blank screen(http://postimg.org/image/nw89of9v5/). However, I can still move my cursor around and the message "you are offline" appear in the top right corner. I have tried the solution given here:http://askubuntu.com/questions/17381/unity-doesnt-load-no-launcher-no-dash-appears. But, to no avail. After loggin in from tty1 window and using the command: "DISPLAY=:0 ccsm" I [03:54] but no other windows and even after check marking the "unity plugin enable" the problem still persists.[System specs:Ubuntu 14.04, CPU=intelcore2duo 2GHz, GPU=nVidia GeForce8200MG) [03:55] the0 aren't you a little weirded out that someone could scrape your prints and like use them for poor use? [03:55] I mean the chances are ultra low but that's your identity we're talking about here. [03:56] slightly yes lol but it bugs me when hardware doesn't work [03:57] any way to test if it's working on anything else to verify one way or another? [03:57] newUbuntu, You rebooted after the unity plugin on? [03:58] wilee, Yes I rebooted after the unity plugin [03:58] cb6 , were you talking to me with that last statement ? [03:58] newUbuntu, So what proceeds this issue, a little cause and effect? [03:59] Here's a screenshot of ccsm window:http://postimg.org/image/k28nhftvl/ . Notice even after tickmarking the enable ubuntu plugin , the icons don't appear [03:59] wilee, I think it was because I installed wine 1.6 recently [03:59] we want to know what you did [03:59] Yes [03:59] wine will not cause this [04:00] idk, it happned soon after i installed wine [04:00] apps don;t wipe the desktop [04:00] well, I'm not aware of any other linux things that use the fingerprint scanner ? === Ladon_ is now known as Ladon [04:00] newUbuntu, TRy resetting compis [04:00] wilee, I tried many solutions resetting compiz was one of them [04:01] I can't even post the question on askubuntu.com, I need 10 points. I'm new to ubuntu [04:02] newUbuntu, you been working on this awhile right, like a week? [04:02] yes lol. how did you know? [04:03] newUbuntu, The description. [04:03] wine is the fault [04:03] I have tried reinstalling the whole ubuntu system like 8 times [04:03] and I think the culprit is wine [04:04] newUbuntu, I can't really tell what your issue is but your in outspace with wine. [04:04] outerspace [04:04] not the problem, unless it some voodoo you are doing as a new user [04:05] wiliee, Yes I'll lay off the wine for a while. [04:05] thank you for your help [04:05] heh, good for cooking [04:06] is there any way to make it so the items in the "taskbar" (vertical bar on the left, not sure what it's called) don't smush together at the bottom when there's a lot [04:06] I'm fine with scrolling :P [04:06] newUbuntu, So on a fresh install does it look okay after the update/upgrade? [04:07] wiliee, Yes everything is okay after a fresh install. The problem only starts after I install wine [04:08] newUbuntu, Not sure how that could happen, I would if you get the point you want to install wine again, is come here before or the ##wine channel [04:09] oh thanks wilee, I didn't know about that channel. I'll give it a try [04:09] I would just use play on linux much easier it's a wine gui basically [04:10] uses wine anyway [04:10] what ubuntu version do you have, wileee? [04:11] newUbuntu, W8, heh, no wine [04:11] need it for college [04:12] are you studying software engineering? [04:12] newUbuntu, Tried a word release in play on linux, but it was problematic in my use context is all. [04:13] newUbuntu, Nah, intercultural relations [04:13] wileee, i installed it under uefi mode, now ubuntu is default to boot but no dual boot option [04:13] * wileee waits for the laugh from thise that know me [04:13] that' cool wileee [04:14] you guys! [04:14] DJ_HaMsTa, I'm not really up on uefi, any further than this, but 2 HD's make it slightly more work, others here know this stuff well/ [04:14] this ubuntu 15.10 alpha is amazing! [04:14] !15,10 | en1gma [04:15] wileee, got it!, this will be fine... i will work on it in the future.. it kinda forces me to learn ubuntu heh [04:15] !15.10 [04:15] Ubuntu 15.10 (Wily Werewolf) will be the 23rd release of Ubuntu. Discussion in #ubuntu+1 [04:15] im serious. [04:15] en1gma, sure but your on the wrong channel. [04:15] back to ole school and no unity [04:15] ohh [04:15] sorry [04:15] not released yet [04:16] right on. i get ya [04:16] no biggie, have fun. ;) [04:19] thanks wileee. see you soon i hope [04:19] anyone ever have problems logging back in to their account after opening their laptop? I get told that my password is incorrect at the lockscreen. I wasn't having any issues earlier in the day, but now i have to completely reboot to get back in. [04:19] you will, I will look for yah [04:20] texasmade, Have you checked for this again? [04:22] hard to tell if you tested this, you use the have as a plural, just confirming [04:22] Running Ubuntu 14.04.2 - if you setup a startup script in the init.d directory and run update-rc.d - will that program start when you boot computer? In other words do init.d scripts still work? [04:23] ubuntu 15.04. wirless headphones are connected but i can't hear anything when i test the sound. any ideas? [04:24] I've searched the forums and haven't been able to find a solution as of yet. This is my first time using Ubuntu in the past couple years. I was on Kali, but switched over for my classes. [04:24] owen1, I would in a terminal run alsamixer and see whats there [04:24] currently on 14.10 [04:24] Can you send attachments with Pushbullet? [04:24] texasmade, asked you a question, and 14.10 is eol on thursday. [04:25] I'm successfully using it now but I don't see the option to send attachments. [04:25] Is there a Skype program for Ubuntu? [04:25] Skype is in the parter repo [04:26] i don't think i understood the question [04:26] !skype [04:26] To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga [04:26] texasmade, Fair enough, can you reproduce the issue with the password? [04:28] texasmade, If you did what you did exactly as before does it happen again? You have to have some proof of problem testing is all, could have been a user error. [04:29] every time it comes out of suspension and i attempt to log in it gives me the "incorrect" from boot I have no issues. [04:29] If I enter it multiple times it stays on the lock screen [04:29] after suspend no logging back in your account; only with encrypted home [04:29] wileee: thanks. everything is enabled on my alsamixer. including 'Headphone' [04:30] texasmade, Cool, so now it happens every time when it had not before, you've recreated this. That's the most basic info needed, not sure here. [04:30] owen1, Cool, a little faith no more I suggest. [04:31] another problem i have, when i enable my bluetooth headphones, mpv and mplayer are not able to play a video. it freezes. [04:32] i see a 'modes' dropdown - telephony duplex and high fidelity playback [04:33] texasmade, Have you made any other passwords than you original on install, or other users? [04:33] your* [04:34] None. [04:34] texasmade, Thanks, we see people making root passwords in ubuntu, when not needed. [04:34] is all [04:55] Went into dconf Editor and disabled lock on suspend [04:55] That seems to have resolved the issue for now. [04:55] how do you check if you have the latest version of lightworks? [04:56] texasmade: tnx 4 feedback [04:56] CB6: you can apt-cache policy packagename to see versions [04:59] lightworks is not in the repo .. check their website? [05:01] hi all, what would cause ubuntu to go into read-only mode? [05:02] anyone know a client for update my ip ? similar to dyndons and/or noip? i want to know other if exists [05:02] andrewjs18: did you login as guest perhaps? [05:02] jak2000, wrong channel for that, try ##networking [05:02] lotuspsychje, no, I have it restricted to only allow a few users to log in [05:03] err jak2000 you don't want a free ip but an updatscript [05:03] andrewjs18: you played with chmod then? [05:03] OerHeks [05:04] explain me more please [05:04] lotuspsychje, of course [05:04] can i set a bandwidth limit on wireless 2.4g systems but not 5g or lan connected systems? [05:04] andrewjs18: so maby you restricted yourself into read only? [05:04] jak2000, see http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dynamic_IP_servers ddclient [05:04] how? [05:04] !chmod | andrewjs18 dont know what you did mate [05:04] andrewjs18 dont know what you did mate: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [05:05] lotuspsychje, it's definitely not that, sorry [05:05] andrewjs18: can you explain your symptons, what happens exactly? [05:06] yes, whenever I try to run any commands, it errors out saying that it's read-only [05:06] for example..sending a test email [05:06] andrewjs18: what kind of mail? [05:07] an email [05:07] from the server [05:07] mail -s [05:07] andrewjs18, whatever did trigger the readonly mode, reboot in recovery mode and trigger fschk on reboot, to fix your filesystem issue [05:07] andrewjs18: are you on ubuntu server? [05:08] I tried a reboot, but it's not coming back up. I'll need to hook a monitor up to it in the morning [05:08] OerHeks, but ddclient need of dyndns, i not want dyndns, because isnt freee [05:08] thanks for your help [05:09] jak2000, that config is just an example, use your own service [05:12] Not possible to setup LVM manually on Ubiquity installer? [05:15] OerHeks: http://www.yi.org/ [05:15] good [05:20] fav torrent software? [05:23] CB6 utorrent? [05:24] CB6: I go back and forth between Transmission and Deluge. (usually the web interfaces) [05:24] rtorrent [05:24] lol utorrent, no, utorrent used to be king, now it's bundled with crap [05:24] CB6: transmission-gtk [05:25] does anyone here use privateinternetaccess.com vpn? [05:25] transmission-cli and transmission-remote-cli (with the daemon) gets the job done too [05:25] ty [05:25] emma: I have in the past [05:25] zaggynl: Im using 14.04 right now do you think the instructions here would still work https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/pages/client-support/ubuntu-openvpn [05:25] I used utorrent forever [05:25] emma: sure [05:25] utorrent is adware now [05:26] zaggynl: do you think it is safe or necessary to install their .sh ? [05:26] emma: they offer proprietary encryption through their blob [05:26] it's odd to say the least that they don't provide higher encryption standards through normal openvpn conf files [05:26] wow propreitary encryption? That kind of worries me [05:27] now combine that with it being based in the us is the reason that I dropped them [05:28] Does anyone here knows how to install "gnome-software" on Ubuntu Gnome 14.04? [05:35] my sound is now only 1/2 working. pidgin makes noises, but my speaker on the status bar is grayed out and it says [x]mute and clicking it wont uncheck it [05:36] what DE do you use? [05:36] bonobomapper: default lightdm [05:36] DE… Unity? [05:36] I guess so. fairly stock vivid [05:37] do you have tried tinkering a little with the sound preferences pane? [05:37] yep [05:37] maybe the indicator got messed up, or with a wrong setting somewhere... [05:38] an alternative, i know, strange, can be installing VOLTI, since is the volume control at the tray that you're missing... [05:40] bonobomapper: installed. now what? === ubik is now known as Guest6763 [05:43] zaggynl: when you asked them why they would be using closed source encryption of their own making what did they say? [05:43] !list [05:43] ianpas: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». [05:45] well this is fun. I run alsamixer. speaker is at 0. I arrow over and up it.. it goes up for about a second, then resets to 0 [05:46] is there a better RDP client for ubuntu other than what comes built in? [05:55] sorry the delay [05:55] volti is a tray helper, simple app [05:56] bonobomapper: do I run it? [06:05] hello niggers === user is now known as Guest58033 [06:05] thank you [06:06] what a bundle of sticks [06:12] Was telling a friend about Pushtext and MightText is apparently good. Has anyone tried it? [06:12] Pushbullet* [06:14] hi is there any "appy for staff" or become an ubuntu developer? [06:14] hi is there any "apply for staff" or become an ubuntu developer? [06:14] draos: #ubuntu-devel can help you perhaps [06:15] Hi draos, http://community.ubuntu.com/contribute/ among other [06:15] draos: #ubuntu-touch always search for skilled devs too [06:15] Not necessarily development. could be outreach, translation [06:15] hey people.....I am thinking about mirroring my website on my local ubunut box.....but I dont quite understand how to access the local version on my network....

[06:16] idk [06:16] download the site....post locally.....then edit site locally...then synch back to online site [06:17] thanks m8 :) [06:18] anyone have any ideas what I should use? I am a novice at ubuntu....I think links will not all work... [06:22] Lurchy that's a good question. Which Ubuntu install are you using? [06:22] ubu desktop 15 [06:22] Did you configure apache? [06:22] fresh install [06:22] I know how to setup lamp (somewhat) [06:23] but trying to get a big picture before I install stuff [06:23] HTML or Php/MySQL? [06:23] PHP [06:24] problem is when I edit site online its godawful slow [06:24] https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/httpd.html [06:24] local site I could edit much faster....then post online [06:24] install apache and in an web brower enter your ip and voala. but if you want to have ur website copy it to www folder. google it where it is cuz i dont know [06:24] On 3rd party or local on yours? [06:25] i wish to have site hosted on local network ubuntu box [06:25] Looking to mirror your site public or private only? [06:25] mirror local site online [06:26] As in is this a staging server [06:26] oh ok [06:26] I think thats what you would call it [06:26] :-) [06:26] After that in the footer of that tutorial it shows this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP which will get you going [06:27] i will make an tut on my site :) [06:27] but...can I download website...process things...then post back? [06:27] Lurchy: various help here http://www.jackreichert.com/2014/08/23/setting-up-an-ubuntu-desktop-lamp-development-server/ https://gist.github.com/kbond/1014846 [06:27] if im an ubuntu developer are there any reards? [06:27] if im an ubuntu developer are there any rewards? [06:27] draos: like what? [06:28] ubuntu 10.04 installer dvd or ubuntu mouse ? :))) [06:28] Hosting a website locally comes with a lot of risks. I've noticed so many people are regularly exploited. I noted an article earlier about running cron jobs for updates. What are most people doing for their security updates? Are defaults set to auto update? [06:29] !contribute | draos (I doubt it) [06:29] draos (I doubt it): To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://community.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu [06:29] i have an local websit and it works pretty well [06:29] Lots of well known webhosts are hacked often. I think the packages need to be updated with frequency and the configuration of the server needs to be just right with limitations of ports etc. [06:30] latest versions of PHP etc [06:31] so are there any rewards? [06:31] Lurchy: you would normally develop on a localhost, and then promote code to production when you are happy it works. No need to expose local dev servers to the public, or other beta testers, unless you want to do this? [06:31] yep [06:31] no som....local network is behind hardware firewall [06:31] are there any rewards? [06:32] Lurchy: my advice, don't. Get a staging server - you work on dev, promote to staging for beta, and out to production when ready [06:32] !ot | draos [06:32] draos: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [06:33] then synch wed contect to online page [06:33] Anyone here know how to install Gnome "gnome-software" in ubuntu gnome? [06:33] web [06:33] thanks m8 [06:33] Lurchy: you maybe need to read on the web development process. This sort of advice is out of scope of this channel [06:33] ok [06:33] I will read the link info...thx [06:34] Has anyone setup a private file server using LAMP or torrents for peers? That could be kind of fun [06:34] is it possible to install ubuntu 32 bit vm in ubuntu 64 bitz? [06:35] should be draos [06:35] what? [06:35] azure does that [06:35] im pretty good at web stuff on ubuntu if any1 need help :) [06:35] in fact I read earlier there's an i386 package for making 32 work with 64 [06:36] What's your reasoning for the VM? [06:36] CB6..why not a simple ftp? [06:36] anyone here good w/ systemd and can help trouble shoot ? [06:37] hey zaggynl I looked at the script from emma... what is the proprietary blob you are talking about? are you sure you weren't mistaking the base64 that is just the server's public key? [06:37] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11918421/ [06:37] made that and sudo systemctl status rtorrent shows no errors, just says "starting rtorrent" but neither screen nor rtorrent starts [06:37] virtualbox [06:38] zaggynl: it looks to me like it just installs a server certificate and config file and uses openvpn from the repositories [06:38] Well… does anyone here know how can I install/get "Gnome Software" on Ubuntu Gnome? The Ubuntu Software Center is slow as hell... [06:39] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop [06:39] can i uprade from ubuntu 15.04 to ubuntu 15.10 [06:40] bonobomapper, Switch mirrors maybe. [06:40] I do use ubuntu gnome already [06:40] but it doesn't come with gnome-software on the repos [06:40] draos, 15.10 is not released yet, are you sure? [06:41] bonobomapper, define gnome-software? === pdyo is now known as pydo [06:42] yes [06:42] the gnome software center [06:42] bonobomapper, besides a faster install, what is it exactly you want and an end goal, there is gnome all over the install if ubuntu and in the repos. [06:42] there is no gnome software center in ubuntu [06:43] the Ubuntu Software Center is slow and ugly… Gnome Software (as in Fedora) is clean and fast... [06:43] and IT IS compatible with APT… since it uses Packagekit as a backend... [06:43] bonobomapper: yes but you could end up in dependancy hell [06:43] use the terminal, it is all the same repos called, that is a horrible weak comparison [06:43] its not for me [06:44] i'm quite familiar with apt-get and apt-build... [06:44] I do like "apt-build" more… hehehe [06:44] bonobomapper, I don't doubt that as you've made no sense so far [06:44] i need something easy to my dad [06:44] and Ubuntu Software Center is sort of confusing… and Slow…. [06:45] zaggynl: are you still here? [06:45] my 86 y/o mom has been running xubuntu for 6 years [06:45] i outh this laptop 10 years ago and it orks perfetly [06:45] yup [06:46] The lubuntu software center can be a simples alternative...

See http://uck.sourceforge.net/ [07:12] that works pretty well [07:13] no have an ubuntu installed and then install apps , modify themes and then create an installr of it [07:15] draos, Not sure, however all you would have to do is a make a dpkg list of the installed any repos and keys and you could install it on a fresh ubuntu, maybe a dpkg into uck, not sure there. [07:16] where apt keeps the soure list ? [07:16] THat is how I upgrade takes about a 1/2 hr for an identical ubuntu === grazieglpiana is now known as Pippo [07:17] draos, I'm gonna stop here, in my opinion you need to do the research. ;) [07:17] ok [07:17] i just wana talk to peaople [07:17] OK so I'm trying to join a Windows domain using realmd/sssd and when I try to use realm to join the domain it fails with a signal 11, what could be the problem?

Is it possible the Canadian mirror would host the old version? I mean how else does a guy get something so archaic lol? [07:28] I fixed it by going to their site directly and grabbing it but update didn't work either so that tells me there's something up [07:28] who anyone love sex [07:29] OK so I got it fixed [07:29] you're asking this in a linux chat server? [07:29] long gone [07:30] CB6 yhm with my country repp server are problems too so i use main server [07:30] hai ... rly ? here ? there are linux users O_O [07:30] lol [07:30] i make your dream. ubuntu 11.04 with the latest securrity updates [07:31] lol [07:31] ok draos ! go for it !;) [07:31] full moon tonight??? [07:31] ya, that's no good if the Canadian mirrors aren't current. [07:31] dont use it .. go to main server [07:32] i think there shouldnt be a big speed difference [07:32] belive in ubuntu :) [07:32] ok im going for a smoke to see some sun ;) [07:34] it's 1:33am [07:34] where's the primary ubuntu servers? [07:34] CB6, why does where matter? [07:34] somewhere in europe i assume [07:35] primairy for .. 11.04 ? [07:35] for mirrors [07:36] CB6 i think there are in london ;) and in europe is 9.36 am [07:36] Well that's where the world splits time wise :P [07:36] ;] [07:36] analog, analog jk [07:38] no, the world splits the time at the international date line. opposite london. Greenwich actually ;P [07:40] mirrors don't split. [07:40] what i the best theme for gnome classic for my project [07:40] how would we know? [07:41] mmm... purely subjective questions, how can you ever go wrong [07:41] nothing is objective ever really [07:42] double blind data maybe [07:42] subjective [07:42] if you need to ask: your current theme. [07:42] that is incorrect. there are plenty of objective things in life. objective things are based on evidence and data. subjective is based on emotion.

[07:53] What's wrong is that while google corrects the incorrect spellings are appropriately located. I've heard a newer google update is to remove info from top results that are known to be false. [07:53] draos why are you asking the same questions frequently? It's like a broken cell phone :P [07:53] because i wnt to know [07:54] I've asked a few times for some things because I'm using a wall power jack to router which is demonstrating to drop ping frequently lol. 80 bucks .. worth it but not [08:01] Hey guys my 2nd monitor is not being detected it is on but just a black screen any ideas?

Using separate partitions is for edge-cases. [12:27] vigilant_: type dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999 [12:28] eric^^_: ok one sec [12:28] charlesW: possible excetion is home, as some people like to share the home directory between different distributions [12:28] !swap | charlesW or bigger swap in some cases [12:28] charlesW or bigger swap in some cases: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster.

I was just wondering if it made it easier for the new learning technician. [12:29] dont use sudo with it, just DISPLAY=:0 startx [12:29] and see if it loads the desktop [12:29] charlesW with a separate /home partition, you can easily reinstall ubuntu, without touching your personal (config-) files [12:30] Eric^^_: ok, straight from my tty1 where I alt-ctrl f1 ? [12:30] mcphail: ah, gotcha [12:30] vigilant_: a lot of ACPI errors in dmesg also, have you tryed a no_acpi boot ? [12:30] vigilant_: yes [12:31] charlesW: personally, I like my config files to be distro-specific. I do keep /home on a separate btrfs subvolume, however.

[12:37] EriC^^: no didnt do anything, its clean install [12:37] maybe disable autologin [12:37] pfifo: it's not user specific and not lightdm specific [12:37] vigilant_: try booting with nomodeset maybe [12:38] eric^^: ok I reboot [12:38] vigilant_: yeah nomodeset or no_acpi [12:38] MonkeyDust: no - I have different versions of Ubuntu within the same btrfs filesystem.

[15:51] MaotoraCode, no... unity is ugly and slow [15:51] its a Mac OS wanna that doesnt work properly [15:51] wannabe* [15:51] luist: i believe gnome is not any bit lighter.. why shouldn't you install something lighter ..?

[16:53] 14 [16:53] eric^^: what should I do when it finishes? [16:54] Mike__, sounds like an installation error, either you selected an incorrect option, or you're trying to use it on a UEFI machine with the minimal install CD, which by default I believe won't work with UEFI [16:55] It is a UEFI but I have it disabled in the BIOS. reinstalled several times with no luck. [16:55] So you're SURE BIOS compatibility mode is enabled? [16:56] in your UEFI? [16:57] UEFI is disabled [16:57] Hi everyone, in my grub menu i've got a "windows 7 loader" which then gives me the option of win7 and winxp [16:57] vigilant_: restart [16:57] how do i get grub 2 to have win 7 and win xp rather than the 'windows 7 loader"? [16:57] they're on different physical drives from ubuntu [16:57] eric^^: restarting [16:58] Mike__: do you get any errors? [16:58] No, cusor blinks for 3 lines and then goes right back to the Grub Menu [16:58] eric^^: loginloop [16:59] Mike__, suggest reading https://goo.gl/Gb1K6R, if that is true then I would say rip the installation you are using and compare the hash to the original, make sure the installation cd burned correctly/usb was written correctly etc [16:59] I booted from USB and tried boot-repair but no luck with that either === Whitor is now known as Whitor_afk [16:59] Mike__: boot a live usb and come back here [16:59] vigilant_, try to install lubuntu-desktop [16:59] iora: how?

[17:05] Done [17:05] Eric^^: so i got fglrx installed. It seems a bit worse now than it was. Now when I pull up displays, only one monitor is listed. Before, both were listed, even though only one would be working. [17:05] Snicksie, is it possible if i only want to use with bash? [17:05] Mike__: type sudo parted -l | pastebinit [17:05] vigilant_, ok... also check /etc/group if you have a 'nologin' line [17:05] EriC^^: When I tried to boot up with both monitors connected, I got no display. I had to unhook one and hold down the power button. [17:06] ah, it's bash kongthap, not sure in that case :) it is possible to have git branch there. do you have it on other git repo's? [17:06] EriC^^: Done [17:06] EriC^^: Seems like the original drivers may have been better. I honestly don't care which drivers I use as long as I can get 3 monitors running properly. [17:06] Mike__: what's the link? [17:06] http://paste.ubuntu.com/11921068 [17:07] Snicksie, https://github.com/magicmonty/bash-git-prompt something like this ? [17:07] sirEgghead: honestly i dont know much about multimonitors setup [17:07] lubuntu install takes long time [17:07] EriC^^: Thanks.

[17:07] sorry :) [17:07] vigilant_, weid ... is very small [17:08] kongthap: could be, I think there was a builtin, I'm checking now [17:08] vigilant_: no [17:08] i usually make a cup of tea and come back to the computer after and i get the "install complete" ;) [17:08] vigilant_: That's a function of your machine and install media, not the OS. [17:08] Snicksie, please :) [17:08] Would anyone here be able to assist me with a multi-monitor setup with 2x Radeon HD 6870s. I have a fresh Ubuntu 15.04 install.

[17:12] ioria: for no login line [17:12] vigilant_: type cat /etc/group | grep nologin [17:12] kongthap: it's __git_ps1, you can see that here: https://coderwall.com/p/fz0e0g/show-current-git-branch-name-in-bash-ps1 [17:12] or just grep nologin /etc/group [17:13] eric^^: ok should I pastebinit?

I'm gonna go ahead and reinstall. I tried changing the drivers a couple of times and I'm kinda stuck atm. I'll get back with you after the reinstall and see what happens.

[17:29] vigilant_, sure ... a beauty farm [17:30] vigilant_, absolutly [17:30] kongthap: you should write "source /etc/bash_completion.d/git" and after that you should edit your PS1 enviroment variable (did you do that already manually or do you use a script?) to add "\$(__git_ps1)" on the location where you want the branch to appear [17:30] ioria eric^^ thanks so much for the help :D :D <3 [17:30] vigilant_: try xubuntu if you want [17:30] it's a lot prettier and you can make it look like virtually anything [17:30] eric^^ it is prettier?

If you enter that as command, you should get the current branch [17:33] Mike__: ok, type cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | nc termbin.com 9999 [17:34] vigilant_, ok ... but this time is better to download a xubuntu iso ... maybe :þ [17:34] ioria: I should ? [17:34] Snicksie, http://paste.ofcode.org/ycYUDXx4bWasUfvFmyL2NR (~/.bashrc) [17:34] vigilant_: yes, it'll be cleaner [17:35] Eric^^: ok I will just test it now like the install command you sendt me and download xubuntu to try :) thanks for all the help :D [17:35] vigilant_, well, to be sure, i would download a Lubuntu iso and then install xfce or xubuntu-desktop [17:35] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/15um [17:35] Snicksie, i can do what you said __git + autocomplete, after enter i got branch name once [17:36] Snicksie, after use "clear" it's gone, i still not sure branch in the powerline yet [17:36] iora eric^^ : I have to get out of the house now so much computer I am getting strange lol [17:36] allrighty, than it should work kongthap :) does it work when you open a new terminal and cd to a directory with .git ? [17:36] iora eric^^ thanks guys! [17:36] vigilant_: no problem [17:36] vigilant_, np, you can aslo install gnome [17:37] Snicksie, not sure, i will restart the machine [17:37] kongthap: yeah, that is just to test if __git_ps1 commando works. it clearly works, so just add it to PS1 variable as you did (that is your bashrc, so should be allright) [17:37] no need kongthap [17:37] source ~/.bashrc works as well [17:37] i need help please! i do http://askubuntu.com/questions/457061/ralink-148f7601-wifi-adaptor-installation and driver was listed in lsmod but network manager and iwconfig doesnt detect it! [17:37] Snicksie, what else do i need to ? http://paste.ofcode.org/ycYUDXx4bWasUfvFmyL2NR this is what i have so far [17:38] I think you can even remove the source, as I think bash will automatically add all files in /etc/bash_autocompletion.d/ . how did you set up your powerline? I think it changes your PS1-variable, so you need to add __git_ps1 there [17:38] Snicksie no "source" right? [17:39] remove all the lines except the one with PS1=... [17:39] Snicksie ok [17:40] Mike__: ok, type exit, then restart [17:40] Snicksie, nope, i only left the line PS1=... nothing happen :( just only powerline with path name [17:40] I'll take a look into powerline, I'm pretty sure that's what changes it back to just path name [17:41] Snicksie, please, thanks :) [17:41] which powerline script did you use kongthap ? [17:41] i followed github.com/powerline/powerline, pip install --user powerline-status [17:42] EriC^^: No luck. Still does same. I select Ubunut from menu, screen goes black with cursor then comes right back to grub menu. [17:43] Mike__: ok, boot the live usb again [17:43] same thing, sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt [17:43] then, for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done [17:43] Snicksie, this is what i got so far http://i.cubeupload.com/YN6Xho.png [17:45] hello. how can I copy a proprietary NIC driver from one server to another? [17:46] EriC^^: Done [17:47] eein: with cp [17:47] Mike__: sudo chroot /mnt [17:48] EriC^^: done [17:48] reisio, walked into that one :-) sorry i meant more "how do I locate the files needed" [17:48] i have it installed on an identical server from some time back and now want to setup a second server [17:49] Mike__: type apt-get install linux-image-generic [17:50] kongthap: do you have powerline configfiles? I think you should add vcs (version control system) in one of those configfiles [17:50] Snicksie, guide me more please, should it be in ~/.local/bin ? [17:51] kongthap: https://powerline.readthedocs.org/en/latest/configuration.html#quick-guide ; you should add VCS segment I think [17:51] EriC^^: It's done installing [17:52] eein: what driver is it? [17:52] Mike__: ok, type update-initramfs -u -k all [17:53] reisio, broadcom bcm5716 http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/component/pci/14e4%3A163b/ [17:54] it says it is available from ubuntu but i dont see how [17:54] EriC^^: it updated [17:54] Mike__: ok, type exit then restar [17:54] *restart [17:54] Snicksie https://github.com/powerline/powerline/issues/186 [17:55] Snicksie, i found config file but in the link you sent, i cannot find anyting relate to adding vcs into config file :( [17:55] eein: not sure that's a proprietary driver [17:56] reisio, how would you normally track the package that is tied to a nic? [17:56] huh? [17:56] i think he means lspci -k [17:56] or something like that [17:56] how can you see what packages make a nic function or are they always in the kernel [17:57] EriC^^, lspci only gives me info on the pci bus but not what packages no? [17:57] eein: -k shows what kernel driver is in use [17:58] ah [17:58] ty [17:58] EriC^^: You are so awesome. Thank you. I have been at this for a few hours now and nothing from the forums and other sites were getting it done. Thank you again.

[18:00] Snicksie, my powerline version is 2.2 [18:00] Does anyone know where or how to get "/sbin/chsnap"? aptitude yields nothing, Google is unhelpful.

[18:04] in stackoverflow he edits defaults.json, which i don't have [18:05] kongthap: https://powerline.readthedocs.org/en/latest/configuration.html#quick-guide says create directory ~/.config/powerline and add file you want to edit there [18:05] but I never worked with powerline, so I'm not sure... anyhow... gotta go... hope you succeed :) [18:07] Snicksie, let me try first :( [18:08] Snicksie, the file name should be ~/.config/powerline/config.json right? because it's not related to theme or whatever :( [18:09] how do i get the term to print out the computer name? hostname gives me IP address, whoami gives my user name, dnsdomainname gives the last 3 parts of my ip address [18:11] Snicksie, can you show me what the config file should look like, i read the doc and really dont' understand, althougth about this segment https://powerline.readthedocs.org/en/latest/configuration/segments/common.html#module-powerline.segments.common.vcs have no ideas how it will appear on the config file [18:11] TechMonger, cat /etc/hosts includes it but not exclusive [18:11] !hostname | TechMonger [18:11] TechMonger: Use hostname to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hosts to include BOTH the old and new hostname and then change /etc/hostname to the new one.

I am able to install snapper just fine. However, I'm attempting to install snapper-gui, which looks like it does some kind of python installation/compiling? Everything works perfectly fine, but when I try to actually run "snapper-gui", it throws an error saying it can't find /sbin/chsnap. There are many "fixes" saying to create configuration files, but when creating those config files, the same error is thrown. === dawnson_ is now known as dawnson [18:13] w30 that works [18:13] lotuspsychje_ that did not [18:13] ubottu not really what im trying to do [18:13] TechMonger: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [18:15] ubottu are you really just a bot?

The message has broken links and makes me wonder if its spam. But it's not a real email. [18:22] fishscene: maybe lets start from the beginning, whats your purpose exactly with all this? [18:23] Gallomimia: can you pastebin the whole message to channel perhaps [18:23] can anyone explain why when i set up my wired ethernet connection in /etc/network/interfaces with a static ip, on the GUI it displays no connection but ifconfig is correct and everything is working, its just the GUI doesnt recognize it [18:23] hi whats the ubuntu sdk handle?

Since this doesn't look to be an easy thing to setup and configure, I'm going to go ahead and let the project rest for now. Thank you for your input and thoughts on the matter. :) [18:26] it's not questionable to me if its legit anymore. it is. i'm wondering who installed a nightly build on my system without my permission.

[19:41] I think it has to do with the boot stuff on ubuntu these days, but I wanted a little help here with this is possible [19:41] ioria: i don't understand if it run in windows and lsusb show it and module is installed why wlan0 not appear and iwconfig not show it.

[19:52] jhutchins_wk: not appear, only eth0 and lo. [19:52] tyu2: The fact that lshw is identifying the manufacturer but not the device indicates that the correct driver isn' tloaded. [19:53] ioria: i think so :) [19:53] tyu2: So your system doesn't know it's a network device, which is why lshw doesn't show it under networking. [19:53] tyu2: Which release of Ubuntu? [19:53] jhutchins_wk, it's not present in lshw [19:53] ioria: Yeah, I meant lsusb. [19:54] jhutchins_wk: 3.16.0-44-generic [19:54] jhutchins_wk: x64. [19:54] tyu2: Do you know which ubuntu release?

[19:56] tyu2: Hoping maybe there's an update to the USB device tables. [19:57] tyu2: The other thing to do is dmesg | less and start looking for messages about the device. [19:57] tyu2: Have you booted with it plugged in? [19:59] jhutchins_wk: dmesg not report nothing, tipically usb ro errors, ...update ok, upgrade i have pending things...oh!

[20:07] or even 12.04 and then upgrade kernel to 3.14.5 or just leave it as a 3.13 kernel [20:08] i would like to be able to do apt-get update && apt-get upgrade but i need it not to take me past the 3.14.5 as per intel instructions [20:09] hello [20:09] am attempting to make a persistent usb, and i'm getting " mounting on /dev/sdx on /cow failed" everything i've read says that this bug was worked out around ubuntu 8.xx or so, [20:09] hi [20:10] someguy07, How are you doing this setup? [20:11] @wilee: followed the documentation at livecd/persistent etc... with a loopback casper-rw file and partition etc.. [20:11] someguy07, No @ needed tab complete nicks, link? [20:12] someguy07, I've done this many times and never had an issue, just wondering why you may be. [20:12] I added myself to a group, the permissions on the folder are 770, but it still says permission denied do I need to restart a certain service or reboot or something for it to take effect? [20:13] @wilee: fair enough here is the link: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [20:13] p1l0t: Have you since logged out and back in as that user? [20:14] rypervenche: No Sir do I need to? [20:14] someguy07, Are you making a casper-rw partition because you need more than 4 gigs persistent? [20:14] p1l0t: Also, I would recommend making the folder with 2770 permissions, so that any new file/folder created keeps that same group. [20:14] rypervenche: excellent, thank you [20:14] p1l0t: Yes, you need to log out and back in [20:15] p1l0t: if there are sub-folders in that folder, I would run it recursively with: chmod -R 2770 blah/ [20:16] @wileee: yes, but now i'd be happy with a 4 gig maximum [20:16] rypervenche: WILCO [20:17] someguy07, Ah use a gui loader, if this is ubuntu your loading using the on board startup disk creator, it has a persistent option. [20:18] someguy07, It has 4 gig and a handful of others if needed as well, just ask if you have an issue. [20:18] @wileee: im currently running a debian box, so startup disk creator is a no-go, i've run the procedure manually, and with unetbootin -- still no persistence [20:18] jhutchins_wk: i have same problem in two usb devices.usb 8-1: hub failed to enable device, error -62 for mx810 midi and usb 10-1: hub failed to enable device, error -62 for tp-link archer wifi card. :( [20:18] Hey all, is there "sysprep" for Ubuntu? I'm trying to build an image to deploy across laptops. [20:18] p1l0t: Don't know what that means. [20:19] @wilee: live always works, but no persistent as of yet [20:19] someguy07, try looking through here. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ Not sure but sounds like you were doing this in debian, I would use their wiki's if so. [20:20] jhutchins_wk: and usb port are ok, computer is new one and i have tested to plug other devices and devices with problem run in windows ok. :( i always find incompatible hw in linux.... [20:20] is it necessary to format with gparted before using DD? my boots doesn't seem to work simply formating to fat32 and applying dd [20:21] mancomunado: what are you trying to do? [20:21] booting windows 10 [20:21] iso [20:21] booting windows 7 [20:21] iso [20:21] format 32, dd it, cry a rive [20:22] mancomunado, that is an easy load to a usb, no dd needed if it even would work. [20:22] mancomunado: ok, i think you have to make a fat32 partition and copy the iso there, no dd involved, better ask in ##windows though and be certain [20:23] @wilee: yep a debian box. the first incompatibility i noted was that current syslinux in debian can't substitute for the version used in ubuntu, after i got past that part, the "can't mount on /cow" error started... [20:23] wileee USB live creator doesn't work. LILI did wqork but is windows only. Now, depending on linux I only have dd and it fucking fails lel [20:23] someguy07, Trying to mix commands and OS's is not going to work unless you're an expert and they fail too. [20:24] Did you try Yumi? http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/ [20:24] hola [20:24] It works under wine [20:24] mancomunado, I'm in ##windows [20:25] no ay gente ay [20:25] !es | majo [20:25] majo: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés.

[20:26] @wileee: agreed, i'd take a different approach were one available to me, i've only the deb box and the live ubuntu as tool [20:27] haces uno dias que tengo le sitema ubuntu .... y no se mucho.. [20:27] I need to copy a folder from a http dir to my server. what should I look up getting this done? === qawap_ is now known as qawap [20:30] i'm looking for ubuntu (persistent) because i need a wine compatible system, -- wine and debian don't really mix [20:31] Hey all, is there "sysprep" for Ubuntu? I'm trying to build an image to deploy across laptops. [20:31] someguy07, That site got what you need yet? [20:34] hopefully a simple question. I accidently turned off the network notification that flashes up at the top right hand corner. So I dont know if my vpn fails, apart form glancing up for the lock icon. Tried lots of things, but ant figure out how to turn the notification back on again. any ideas? (Using ubuntu mate 15.04 if that helps) [20:35] @wilee: point taken, if you mean that i should try and build a persistent ubuntu from a different distro than debian. I'll give it a shot, thanks for the idea. [20:35] Renfield: what lock icon do you mean? [20:36] EriC^^, : On the Network(wifi) symbol, to show my Open VPN connection is connected [20:36] Renfield: ok, type ps aux | grep notify [20:37] does notify-osd show up? [20:37] hey guys, I'm trying to mount a windows ahre in ubuntu with CIFS, and some shares are fine, 2/4, but the other two are failing, Permission denied. [20:37] They all have the same permissions as far as I know, I don't know how to debug further. [20:38] EriC^^, : I get root 53 0.0 0.0 0 0 ?

[20:41] what's the best way to download all files from a http dir to a local dir? [20:41] EriC^^, On the notification, had a little box saying "Don't show again" [20:42] qawap: You mean from a server to your local machine, or vice versa? I would use SFTP to transfer files, personally. [20:42] qawap, I am only back to linux over the last few weeks, so all my knowledge is about 6 years old, but a wget used to work perfectly. [20:42] its not a local machine, but a droplet on digital ocean [20:42] I am pretty clueless when it comes to linux. but I guess I need to read up on wget then [20:43] I just want to transfer a dir from a http dir to my droplet [20:43] qawap: wget will not help you in this case. wget is simply for downloading files from a web server. [20:43] I just want to download them I guess .. ? [20:44] Renfield: type gsettings set org.gnome.nm-applet disable-disconnected-notifications false [20:44] qawap: SFTP will be the best way. So long as SSH words, then it uses that protocol. And you can use Filezilla or the command line to copy the files to your droplet. [20:44] works* [20:44] Renfield: also type gsettings set org.gnome.nm-applet disable-vpn-notifications false [20:44] rypervenche: ok. so I need to download sftp? [20:44] Renfield: and gsettings set org.gnome.nm-applet disable-connected-notifications false [20:44] qawap: What OS are you running on your local machine? [20:45] rypervenche: its not a local machine, its a droplet from digital ocean running ubuntu [20:45] qawap: You are wanting to put files onto it, yes? [20:46] rypervenche: yes, a couple of dirs from http://mysite.com/dir [20:46] EriC^^, Typed all three, will need to drop my connection and try and see if it works [20:46] qawap: So in this case, the "remote" machine is your droplet, and your local machine is the machine that you are probably connecting to IRC from. [20:46] hola [20:47] rypervenche: true.. I am on win using putty to connect to my droplet [20:47] qawap: Ok, that answers my question. You are on Windows on your local machine. Then I would download Filezilla and connect to your machine using that. You would connect using your SSH credentials. [20:48] rypervenche: ok, thanks. I will try that. I didnt know I could ssh with filezilla [20:48] qawap: It uses SFTP, but it is the same protocol. It allows you transfer files back and forth. [20:49] rypervenche: thanks it worked! :) [20:50] qawap: WinSCP is handy too, and I believe it can read your putty configuration and share saved connections. [20:51] EriC^^, Worked a treat, thanks a lot! [20:51] RenfieId: no problem [20:51] anyone know how I can reconfigure the print screen key? [20:52] setxkbmap?

[21:10] MonkeyDust, I read about globs2, which seems to associate file extensions with mime types.... I just need to be able to point the file extension at a program.

[21:10] I'm having trouble using camera on my ubuntu 14.04 the camera keeps on freezing [21:10] if anyone could help me [21:11] ecdhe did you open the file I suggested? [21:11] MonkeyDust, yes. Like I said, mine's pretty simple and doesn't contain an example I can copy. [21:11] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingMimeTypes [21:12] MonkeyDust, It has direct mime->.desktop associations, but no glob->desktop associations. [21:13] can anyone suggest me channel which can help me with that? [21:13] jsingh: what res are you using? [21:14] Howdy. I'm having trouble booting any version of *buntu on my MSI GE70 2PE Apache Pro. I've tried with UEFI, without UEFI, from CD, from USB -- nothing seems to work.

[21:16] OerHeks RenfieId it now hangs on another screen - a terminal window that says "Welcome to Ubuntu 15", and lists a bunch of tasks, some with [OK] and some without [21:16] is this a UEFI issue? [21:17] jsingh: for the camera [21:17] livinitup: No, if you're getting that far it's a systemd issue. [21:18] livinitup: Is the md5sum of the iso file good? [21:18] it's a inboard camera . 160 * 120 [21:19] jhutchins_wk i'll double-check now [21:19] livinitup, What happens when you boot from it? Is it the .386 or the 64 bit version? [21:19] jsingh: What app are you trying to use it with? [21:19] I've tried cheese and skype [21:20] I'm experiencing the same issue [21:20] 160x120? [21:20] is this from the 80s? [21:21] OerHeks, I followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingMimeTypes, similar to the "scad.xml" file. [21:22] i can go upto 1280 * 720 but i face the same issue [21:22] !webcam [21:22] Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [21:22] OerHeks, but after running sudo update-mime-database /usr/share/mime, a `mimetype ` command still shows my example file as application/xml and not the custom mimetype I'd installed. [21:23] Hi, how do I run 2 command at the same time in a shell script? For example, I need to run a serveur and a jar file together, but the second command dont run until the firt as complete [21:24] I tried &&, but no, the solution is & but dont work [21:24] jhutchins_wk - checksum does not match. i will redownload and see what happens [21:24] Lunatic_Player yes, command && command is the normal way [21:24] Lunatic_Player: foo & bar should work, && is something else (only run second command if first one was succesful) [21:24] RenfieId - 64 bit version. i think the download was corrupted though, as the md5 hash doesnt match [21:24] MonkeyDust: what? No, very much not so. [21:25] Fuchs: foo & bar? I don't undersant [21:26] Lunatic_Player: process1 & process2 will launch both processes, process1 in the background [21:26] process1 && process2 will only launch process1 terminated succesfully [21:26] so if you want two in parallel, & is what you are looking for (something like screen / tmux might also be handy, depending on the actual use case) [21:27] That's what I tough, but I already did that, seams to work but I got an unknown command output for 2nd command in terminal [21:27] Fuchs: And it's the same command I use everytime [21:27] Lunatic_Player: tmux is great if you need to be able to interact with the command or see the output afterward.

[21:55] jhutchins_wk RenfieId now it throws a bunch of SCHED_ERROR messages, takes me to the loading screen, and then drops me out to some sort of shell called (initramfs) [21:56] mount under /media/truecrypt1 [21:56] mgolisch, I added subsonic to mediashare group, and mediashare user to mediashare group, so yes [21:56] not the direct user, but yes in the group [21:56] didnt know if peculiar to mint or ubuntu in general [21:56] odd so groups shows that group? [21:57] jhutchins_wk RenfieId DRMJ failed to create kernel channel -22 [21:58] anyone have any idea what might be causing that? [21:58] mgolisch, yes, group 1003 [21:58] reisio - go with what besides truecrypt? veracrypt [21:58] which I switched the gid to [21:58] livinitup, tried burning it to disk? [21:58] g00dt0g0: no [21:58] g00dt0g0: did you want full disk or not? === bubbasaures is now known as wileee [21:59] just container [21:59] RenfieId burning the iso? i have no CD drive [21:59] g00dt0g0: then use encfs [21:59] isnt truecrypt dead? [21:59] ta still considered good I thought [21:59] 7a [22:00] encfs as secure? [22:00] need to stash sensitive stuff [22:01] livinitup, how you boot? did you use usb-creator-gtk to burn the iso to an usb stick? [22:01] g00dt0g0: yup, that's its purpose [22:01] im looking for help with terminal commands to download i2p. i followed a few steps but im not fluent with terminal commands at all and im hoping someone coould drop me a link to a video on how to complete the process. thanks [22:01] truecrypt lives on in the form of veracrypt, but it was never of particularly good origin [22:01] syntroPi i've tried unetbootn and Universal USB Installer [22:02] will research encfs [22:02] thanks [22:02] cluelessperson: what ubuntu version is that? [22:02] g00dt0g0: encfs /foo /bar, 'bout it [22:02] you can automate it if you want, though [22:02] mgolisch, 14.04 server [22:03] or 14.02 whichever [22:03] livinitup, you have no linux box available so you have to burn it on windows? [22:03] livinitup, which version? i386 or amd64? and which processor do you have? [22:04] syntroPi i do have one, ill try it now [22:04] cluelessperson for the good order: you mean 14.04.02 [22:04] .2* [22:04] RenfieId im on the 64-bit version, running it on an intel 5500 [22:04] i7-5500 [22:04] livinitup, is it running in uefi mode? [22:04] or bios / csm? [22:05] livinitup, try the other version, to see if it helps. I run an intel i5, and installed the intel one first, then took it off and put the amd64 one on. [22:06] Hello! I am trying install the python, when I do "apt-get install python" or "sudo apt-get install python", but it gives a error: "Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct tehse: The following packages have unmet dependencies: gnuplot: Depends: gnuplot-x11 (>= 4.4.3-0ubuntu3) but it is not going to be installed imagemagick : Depends: [22:06] syntroPi i believe so. how would i check? [22:07] hmm good question, do you have an os on it already? [22:07] edupt: did you try to update with sudo apt-get update? [22:07] yes [22:07] I did [22:07] its a setting in the bios/ uefi firmware [22:07] if you want to boot in in uefi or csm mode [22:07] if you dual boot you dont want to change it though [22:07] edupt: make sure you are using the right repositories [22:08] edupt: so go to the software centre [22:08] syntroPi yeah, im trying to dualboot with windows 8. id rather keep it [22:08] How can I see that? [22:08] then its most likely uefi [22:08] not entirely sure how to check that inside windows [22:08] but you can for sure [22:09] edupt: find the orange icon with an a on it [22:09] syntroPi the bios menu is titled "aptio setup utility - american megatrends" [22:09] edupt, what distro / version are you using that does not have Python installed? To my knowledge, all Ubuntu flavors have Py 2.x installed by default [22:09] also see in the bios/uefi but dont change anything there then [22:09] edupt: then click it, and yeah, I would use python2 [22:09] hey guys , can someome help me with one problem ? I finally finish to install Ubuntu 14.04 lts but after I plug out the stick , I get reboot and select booter device.. [22:09] yes go to the boot menu and look if uefi boot is enabled there [22:10] kryptofreak> [22:11] Leonitus: I search python2? [22:11] cluelessperson: hm what version of windows is sharing the files? [22:11] dont change anything and leave discard changes [22:11] mgolisch, 8.1x64 [22:12] mgolisch, I'm making a bit of headway in ubuntu-server [22:12] edupt: try sudo apt-get install python2, if that doesn't work go to the software centre and find it there [22:13] If he doesn't have python2 installed, he would not be able to use the Software Center, as it's a required dependency. [22:13] It is say: "E: Unable to locate package python2" [22:13] edupt: are you connected to the internet? [22:14] yes [22:14] isn't the python 2 package just called python? [22:14] !info python [22:14] python (source: python-defaults): interactive high-level object-oriented language (default version). In component main, is optional. Version 2.7.9-1 (vivid), package size 133 kB, installed size 680 kB [22:14] Yes /.. all he needs to type is: python -V [22:15] Whats the default firewall ubuntu ships with, is it iptables? [22:15] edupt: you might have to put down a new repo because you either have none or the one you're on is off [22:16] syntroPi i think it is efi yes [22:16] edupt, Confirm to the channel if you have not the release your running [22:16] Epx998 yes, use ufw, gufw, fwbuilder etc [22:17] you're doh [22:17] I don't understand. [22:17] sorry [22:17] I go to Ubuntu Software Center [22:17] and it say it needs repair [22:17] edupt, Is this 14.04, 12.04, or any other? [22:18] It is 12.04 [22:18] livinitup, then you have to create an uefi bootable usb stick for x86_64 (amd64) i think [22:18] edupt, Thanks, just wanted to be sure you were in support. [22:18] thanks very much [22:19] edupt: try sudo apt-get upgrade [22:19] edupt: I would ugrade to 14.04 [22:20] Leonitus, For python, bro don't help unless you really can [22:20] edupt, 12.04 by default, has Python 2.7 installed. If you've removed it, your going to have allot of trouble. [22:20] anyone using a bridge? how long does your network take to come up? [22:20] mgolisch: Instantly, on every setup I'm using a bridge on. [22:20] wileee, yeah i agree i think the best option for edupt is to upgrade to 14.04 [22:20] livinitup, not entirely sure but i think you should use an uefi system to do that you might read up on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick [22:21] systemd-analyze blame shows that : 25.288s ifup-wait-all-auto.service [22:21] i wonder why it takes so long [22:21] ki7mt: where can i find the python 2.7? [22:22] livinitup, there is also some info at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [22:22] its realy frustrating that my ubuntu on a samsung ssd takes longer to start than windows 7 on a like 6 years old samsung 1tb hdd [22:22] :( [22:22] edupt, You can chek that it is installed with ( in a terminal ): python -V ... it should return something like: Python 2.7.6 [22:22] Leonitus: I agree with wileee, that seems like a bad idea and you shouldn't be helping [22:23] ki7mt: yes, it shows me: Python 2.7.3, how can I open? [22:23] edupt: what do you mean open [22:23] edupt: what are you trying to do? [22:24] edupt, to open the interrupter console, just type: python [22:24] ok [22:24] thanks very much [22:24] it is working [22:24] :) [22:25] Welcome, glad all is well :-) [22:27] mgolisch: check out 'man brctl'; it's possible that spanning-tree could be introducing a forwarding delay. [22:27] mgolisch, When you bot it hit esc to see the text. [22:27] boot* [22:28] at least 6 year old laptop here SSD about 30 secs to boot at most === BangBangBang is now known as GitGud [22:30] installing ubuntu from a usb drive, i have four options to boot to: Windows Disk Manager (P1), UEFI: Flash Drive, P1, or Flash Drive. which do i choose? [22:33] uefi flash [22:36] is this to boot into the live image for the first time? if so go for the UEFI flash drive [22:36] syntroPi just hangs on startup screen again.... [22:37] hmm which startup screen? [22:38] can you describe that screen? [22:43] I'm playing with returning lambdas (Linux: g++ 3.9 and clang 3.6), but I get odd errors with the linker for the following function: "auto member_of(const std::vector &cs) { return [=](const char c) -> bool { for (const char &x : cs) if (c == x) return true; return false; }; };". I get tokenize.cc:(.text+0x68): undefined reference to `std::allocator::allocator()' + many many lines of the kind of error messages you get with templates. [22:43] I upgraded from Lucid to Precise, then from Precise to Trusty and now the machine doesn't boot with some error: "unknown commant 'knetbsd'" [22:43] which I assume is some grub issue [22:45] Skaag, that is some NetBSD kernel issue, odd. [22:46] shinka, 3.9? that's a bit old I'd say. If I recall, 12.04 is using at least series 4.3 / 4.4 compilers. [22:48] ki7mt: typo, it's 4.9. [22:49] shinka, Ok, that's a bit better :-) [22:49] OerHeks: I think it's this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1289977 [22:49] Launchpad bug 1289977 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu 14.04 Update breaks grub, resulting in "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found"" [High,Triaged] [22:51] Skaag, it does not mention that kernel kernel, why is this related? [22:52] shinka, what's your invocation and are you linking against libstdc++ === guyz is now known as daynaskully [22:52] Hi all newbie here. Simple question. In the terminal if I call "file The extension is irrelevant. [22:53] The content of the file is examined using the "file" command. [22:53] It may not be for what I need to do [22:53] dont need the extension in linux, [22:53] So what DO you need to do? [22:53] Stuxweb: No. It means the file is an ASCII text file, whether or not it has any extension, or no extension [22:54] I am trying to get the Nano text editor to do syntax highlighting plain text files. It will do it for .txt files [22:54] except anything that says it's an ASCII text file which I thought was the same [22:54] in the terminal [22:54] * alex__ [22:55] In particular files like /etc/ssh/sshd_config for the openssh server so the "comments" starting with hashtags (#) will be easier to read [22:56] Is sshd_config something other than a text file? The "File" command says its just ASCII text [22:56] basically my nano config files are trying to use .asc to syntax highlight it where using .txt works for those files but it doesn't work for "ASCII text" [22:57] Stuxweb, Nano syntax highlighting is very limited. There are several projects that have patches to extend it's current capability. A plain-text file is going to lack structure, which most parsers will use to determine the file type to provide the appropriate highlighting. [22:57] Okay. I was under the impression that it simply used the file extensions [22:57] along with structure [22:58] The file extension is irrelevant when using linux. [22:58] All I care about is coloring lines that begin with hash tags [22:58] Hey I’m having trouble updating my system with apt. Starting a week ago, while it seems to update fine, upgrade never finds any packages needing upgrade. There’s no error, it just always says nothing to do. Can anyone help me diagnose? [22:58] Okay [22:58] Stuxweb, to see what you have at present: ls /usr/share/nano [22:58] Okay [22:59] Stuxweb, Here's some additional file types: https://github.com/sentientmachine/erics_nano_syntax_highlighting [22:59] ki7mt: http://pastebin.com/pb2MD4fA [22:59] conf and text are ones I added [23:00] I've been to that github repo, that's where I got "text.nanrc" [23:01] but I can't get it to highlight sshd_config which again appears to just be plain text. I don't understand how Nano can succesfully highlight a simple .txt file (sorry I'm used to explaining things like a wondoz person) and not others [23:01] Stuxweb,I dont see a text.nanorc .. I see a tex.nanorc ... [23:01] tex.nanorc is also in there but it's a different file [23:02] text is in there, line 2 column 2 [23:02] how can I decrypt my home partition when I am in an ubuntu liveusb so I can mount that partition? [23:02] well [23:02] not really line 2 === user is now known as Guest92343 [23:02] it's the last item on line 1 [23:03] Stuxweb, sorry, I don't have a column 2, only one column. In any case, I dont even think NotePad++ has highlighting for plain-text files, could be wrong though. [23:04] philipballew https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory#Live_CD_method_of_opening_a_encrypted_home_directory [23:05] Okay so I was probably confusing you with my newbie wondoz knowledge. Nano will successfully highlight new text files with the "text.nanrc" file [23:05] but even though sshd_config says its an ASCII text file it will not highlight it. [23:06] Stuxweb, FWIW, Nano is a lightweight editor, if your looking for a full featured editor, maybe EMACS, Vi / VIM would be more usefull. [23:06] MonkeyDust, thank you. [23:06] I will try this now [23:06] It's not really a feature problem with nano I think it may be in the file type [23:07] I was just wondering if some files claiming to be ASCII text which are configs for stuff like openSSH somehow get treated differently by text editors? [23:07] if the file is owned by root can Nano not highlight it? [23:08] Stuxweb, To my knowledge, the sshd config file is a text file, its certainly not a binary file, similar to the samba.conf file. It may be just the way it's written that is not interrupted properly by Nano. [23:10] Stuxweb, Not sure, but you can't save the sshd conf file as a normal user anyway, so edit it as sudo and see if it highlights. [23:10] Okay I just figured it out. [23:10] Nano looks at the file name [23:10] text.nanrc looks to see if it has .txt at the end [23:10] then it will highlight it [23:11] that's pretty limiting lol [23:11] I'm sure there's a way to highlight default text. [23:12] Stuxweb, I think the ALL.nanorc file is the catch all, but I've not really played with it. [23:12] Okay I will try doing that, thanks ki7mt :) [23:17] any easy way to upgrade to a newer version of ubuntu via ssh? [23:19] Koyaanis, sudo do-release-upgrade should work [23:19] Koyaanis from to? [23:20] 13.10 [23:21] Your better off re-installing. [23:21] but how do i do that ;_; [23:21] its a vps === Mitchell92[A] is now known as Mitchell92 [23:21] Koyaanis, Ask your Service provider to do it. [23:21] Derp. Ok [23:23] dont they all have like some selfservice webinterface? [23:23] Koyaanis, having said that, 13.10 to 14.04 with do-release-upgrade should work, in theory, though I've not tested that upgrade path in a very long time. [23:23] it doesnt even recognize the command [23:24] Koyaanis, You may need to install the update manager core on a server: sudo apt-get install update-manager-core or sudo aptitude install update-manager-core [23:25] both dont work lol [23:26] Koyaanis, Is this a Ubuntu VPS server? [23:26] yea [23:26] sixty four bit [23:27] Koyaanis, OK, well, we could try allot of different things here, but as this is a remote hosted server, I'd recommend asking the Host to do the upgrade for, or, ask them what process they recommend for upgrading. [23:28] I wrote them a ticket [23:28] Koyaanis, That's the best option I think. [23:28] I just compiled gcc (trunk) from source, is there a way to package that into a .deb so I can install it on my other PC (so I dont have to compile it again)? [23:29] Illya, Yes of course, debuild, sbuild, cowbuilder, pbuilder take your pick. [23:29] i'm ashamed but i can't find where default path is in ubuntu 12.04 [23:30] Illya, Another option, for personal use, look at an application calling checkinstall. [23:30] s/calling/called/g [23:31] Could someone check my Script I'm trying to write to help me install faster for donated computers? https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A3Hj3r12vNc1j6NGkKyX0Ndi0ypvxy6e7OybkFc_Tbw/edit?usp=sharing [23:31] it's /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin for root but i can't find it in /etc/.profile /etc/bash.bashrc [23:31] or dotfiles in root [23:31] or login_defs [23:31] where it's set? [23:32] thanks [23:32] mwargh, /etc/skel has the default .profile and .bachrc files that are used when creating a user. [23:32] mwargh: ' sudo echo $PATH ' to see what paths are set . [23:33] That just tells you what is in $PATH .. not where $PATH defaults are set. [23:33] designbybeck, a lot can be covered with ubuntustudio-photography http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/ubuntustudio-photography [23:34] The default $PATH vars are set from /etc/enviroment I believe. I'll go look. [23:34] OerHeks: ...I have a pretty specific group of software I'm trying to install [23:34] OerHeks: ....mainly becuase of the way we teach classes and the volunteers that know certain software. [23:35] i guess it's sudo that strips path to the bare /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin [23:35] but i can't see any options about that in /etc/sudoers [23:35] is it compiled in or something? [23:36] mwargh, No exactly, the sudo $PATH and the users $PATH are different. [23:36] .. not exactly .. [23:37] mwargh, What exactly are you after, you want to add a path to a user or sudo or what? [23:37] designbybeck, then i guess you are fine [23:37] mwargh, This is a good to start: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables [23:38] OerHeks: I've used some of it before, but I just added to it. Just wanted to check before I ran it to see if anyone else has any better ideas [23:40] ki7mt: http://pastie.org/10307010 [23:40] ki7mt: i've looked through that [23:41] i really don't get what's happening [23:41] mwargh, well, to be honest, I never, on UBuntu distro's, use the root account, so there may be some other things going on here. [23:41] hello. I would need support because getting very strange errors while trying to compile programs. [23:42] the next ubuntu version comes in april right? [23:43] Illya, No, 15.10 in October. [23:43] oh of course. the next lts is in april though [23:43] mcgiwer, Pastebin your errors, if anyone knows whats happening they will respond accordingly. [23:44] Illya, Yes, 16.04 ( next LTS release ) is schedled for April 2016. [23:44] Here is my pastebin. Needed to copy & paste the output first: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11923031/ [23:44] cool :) [23:45] I have ubuntu on my laptop, desktop and server. Im liking it very much. [23:46] mcgiwer, Well I don't know why it's broken, but line-7 is a clue: -- Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/c++ -- broken [23:48] @ki7mt: this is the wird part since all compilers and libraries were installed automatically whn I installed the build-essential [23:49] mcgiwer, Are you following a How-Too somewhere ? What Ubuntu version / Arch you running. Build-Essential is for packaging, and not for standard dev environments. Did you install Clang or g++ ? [23:50] OerHeks: I think booting form the Trusty ISO and rescuing the system fixed it [23:50] (there's an option there to re-install grub) [23:53] mcgiwer, I'd start with installing the CXX compilers. If you want clang and g++: sudo apt-get install clang llvm g++ should get you going. [23:55] Hey Guys, I'm having trouble on some ubuntu 14.04 servers being able to get the link up on 10G network cards installed into a chassis connected to a cisco nexus switch [23:55] @ki7mt: it look as build-essential has installed installed cpp, g++, c++, etc. in the version 4.8 [23:55] the OS can see the interfaces but the switch does not see any connection coming from them === Mitchell92 is now known as Mitchell92[A] [23:55] I'm thinking it may be a driver issue but I have no idea how to find/update the drivers [23:55] mcgiwer, From the build-essential description, first line: If you do not plan to build Debian packages, you don't need this package. [23:56] jwitko: check port settings on the cisco. [23:56] bekks, the port settings are identical to other ports running without issue [23:56] @ki7mt: I installed it only because it had installed all compilers and libs [23:56] but those are on newer hardware [23:57] mcgiwer, Clearly, you either have one of three conditions, either an incomparable CXX compiler / version, the CXX compiler in the package is broken ( which I doubt ) or, what your building is incompatible with the version of your CXX compiler. [23:59] Is this a thing now, using llvm/clang instead of gcc/g++? [23:59] mcgiwer, One other suggestion, specify the use of "g++" not C++ to the cmake invocation, cmake .. .. .. CXX=/usr/bin/g++ and so on.
