histokokut: copying files to and from where?01:33
TBotNikAll: I keep getting errors from my FireFox browser and know it is related to "keytracker viruses" that are now being stored via the HTML5 cache. Where do I find help to located and delete these?01:33

kokuthisto: 40k files, around 400mb, from documents folder to nginx folder01:33
histokokut: is the nginx and documents directory both on the same drive?01:34
histokokut: ahh so their all small files?  You would take a performance hit with smaller files like that.01:34

kokutAnyone knows where to copy the ssh keys i just crated in my server?02:11
histokokut: it's easier if you just use ssh-copy-id to put them in the right place. But if you want to manually you put the pub in authorized keys and the private on your client in the .ssh/id_rsa02:13
histoassuming it's an rsa key02:13
kokuthisto: yes, how is it easier to ssh-copy-id?02:14
=== Elimin8r is now known as Elimin8er
histokokut: on the client generate keys with ssh-keygen and then ssh-copy-id user@someserver   it will then place the public key in the authorized keys file for you.02:15
kokuthisto: does it ask for some kind of passphrase when connecting to the server or something?02:17
optimalya02:17
optimalit does02:17
kokutk02:17
histokokut: yea for yoour user.  After you enter the passphrase and the key is copied then next time it wont'. Unless you password protected your key.02:18
histokokut: make sure you remove yoru private key from the server if you are going to use that one.02:18
histokokut: the authorized_keys file on the server is in the ~/.ssh  directory02:20

Guest85924What? it is ok?06:31
Guest85924im sory for my pool english06:33
Matt_teniTJ-, i did check pepperflash plugin page on debian, it was last updated in december 2014 https://packages.qa.debian.org/p/pepperflashplugin-nonfree.html06:34
histoGuest85924: what is your question?06:36
TJ-Matt_teni: As I understand it PF is an integrated part of Google Chrome, and is published under a non-free licence by Google, so checking with the Google Chrome project would be best, since updates to Chrome possibly include updates to PF. If that project publishes security advisories they may list specific issues against PF, or not06:37
Matt_teniTJ-, thanks. will look into it06:41
gnomedHi. I am facing an error while running a program in wine. Can I ask that question here or not?06:51
ObrienDaveany wine issues direct to #winehq06:52
fury__why is the default swappiness 60 in ubuntu? since I learned about it and switched it to 5 my laptop is actually enjoyable06:52
gnomedok06:52
OerHeksfury__, it is a choise made not only for your machine.06:52
ObrienDavefury__, how much RAM do you have?06:52
fury__4gb06:52
ObrienDaveprobably not necessary to have any swap06:53
OerHekssleep/hybernate wants swap, anyway.06:53
ObrienDavethis is true06:54
fury__obviously it is not for my machine, but I can't think of any case when that 60 value is usefull06:54
=== quellochevuoi is now known as Guest97367
=== Guest97367 is now known as SamuraiRoma
fury__what happens if I have 512mb an a value of 10 in swappiness? will I face a sudden drop in performance? and that 60 is there to balance this drop so I have worse loading times overall but no sudden drop?06:55
OerHeksfury__, test it ?06:57
Guest85924the python's model scapy can't use the apt-get to install in ubuntu06:58
Guest85924what can i do?06:59
fury__yeah, i could, although I would have to run some VMs to fill these 4gb but I feel too lazy now06:59
TJ-fury__: vm.swappiness controls the weighting between evicting pages from the file-cache or the anonymous-pages cache. 60 is safe default middle-ground06:59

DDRHi all. Ubuntu in gnome-classic mode keeps doing this thing where I'm going along, going along, and then my screen turns black, a few seconds pass, and I am back at the login screen with my session apparently killed.11:50
BluesKajHowdy folks11:51
DDRIt happens a few times a day, apparently at random. Last time, a file I had open was corrupted.11:51
DDRHas anyone experienced anything similar? I'm at a complete loss how to debug it. :(11:51
tomtomtomHi, I'm running a NAS on ubuntu with a 4hdd raid5. Last week I was running apt upgrade and got a read failed message on one of the disks thats part of the raid. I checked mdadm and it said that this disk failed, the hdd indication light of the case was disabled, too. I've now checked the drives with seatools on windows (SMART and short selftest), and they all passed.11:52
tomtomtomI'm wondering if that has something to do with grub, bc it happend right after grub configuration11:52
Nokajibazhang: FYI, I looked at a typical example run of regionset, region 1 corresponded to 0xFFFFFFFE, this gave me enough confidence to assume whatever region value is set, is deducted from the number FFFF (Hexadecimal), I did a re- setregion and it confirms I now have region2 set -  now to try my blu ray disc ...11:53
tomtomtomIs it possible to run a live ubuntu and mount the raid read only to check if it's really the hdd?11:54

drdozerin the kde mixer, there is a playback device for HDMI and the volume is set to 100%13:36
Fuchsdrdozer: you then also have to move audio streams to that output device, unless it is set as the default13:38
Fuchsas much as I love KDE, you probably get better results by firing up pavucontrol for that13:38

NokajiHi, anyone know how to get a blu ray player working? - I've installed unbuntu extras, also the three drivers libdvdread, libdvdnav & libdvdcss and set region. Nautilus can see the files/names. I've tried VLC & smartplayer. So far it only plays DVDs plus I can re-encode a blu ray disc to mkv (with 5% artefacts prior to setting region code).14:24
Luciuspc specs would be necessary Nokaji, right?14:27

ciarankhey! im having some trouble installing ubuntu server and was wondering if anyone could help?16:40
EriC^^ciarank: what's up?16:40
ciaranki cant get it to detect my ssd :/16:41
EriC^^gpt msdos?16:41
EriC^^was it raided earlier?16:42
ciarank being a total noob here, could you walk me through it?16:42
EriC^^ciarank: ok, do you have a live usb?16:42
ciarankim trying to use a SanDisk 128gb ssd, with a asus m2n68-am plus mobo16:43
ciarankim trying to install from usb yeah but theres no option to go live, just install16:43
EriC^^do you have any means of getting a live session?16:43
ciarankone minute16:43
ciaranki can execute a shell and abour the installation, im going to try the latter16:44
EriC^^ok16:44
ciaranki just get the installer boot menu16:45
ciarankIm thinking maybe get a usb with ubuntu desktop and see if i can go live from there16:46
EriC^^does the bios see it16:46
EriC^^yeah, good idea16:47
ciarankbios detects it16:47
EriC^^ciarank: ok, add libata.noacpi=1 to the kernel cmd line16:47
EriC^^http://superuser.com/questions/863073/ubuntu-14-04-doesnt-see-my-ssd-drive16:47
ciarankill give that a go now16:51
ciarankill give that a go now16:51
EriC^^ok16:51
ciaranki cant seem to get that :/16:55
ciarankim getting very limited optionns when i boot16:55
ciarankall the options i get are : Install Ubuntu Server, Multiple server install with, chekc disk for defects, test memory, boot from first hard disk, advanced options, help16:57
ciarankthats all my options16:57
mgolischyeah you need to press e to edit the entry or something16:59
ciarankim going to put ubuntu desktop onto a usb, see if i can boot into that on the machine17:00
EriC^^ciarank: is there an option to edit the boot options or so?17:01
EriC^^which gives you a line like linux /vmlinuz ........etc.17:01
ciarankso im putting desktop 14.10 onto my usb now17:02
EriC^^ok17:02
ciaranki couldnt see any eric, what i listed is litrally all it gave m,e17:03
mgolischi think you need to use the advanced or other options entry17:03
mgolischit will show the boot cmdline then which you can edit17:03
ciarankcreating persistant file now17:04
ciarankthe advanced options was just to recover from a broken installation]#17:04
ioriasomething like F6 ?17:05
TJ-EriC^^: Which server release was that? 14.04 boot menu has "Install Ubuntu Server", "Multiple server install with MASS", "Check disk for defects", "Test memory", "Boot from first hard disk", "Rescue a broken system"17:05
Taz3rresolve, thx17:06
ciaranki was usuing server 15.0417:06
ioriaTj- seems he has an 'advanced options' menu17:07
EriC^^TJ-: ^17:07
ciaranki do but its only to rescue a broken installation :/17:07
TJ-Probably where it got hidden then17:07
TJ-For future reference, the BIOS and UEFI boot menus for server ISO (14.04) are the same even though BIOS is using isolinux (syslinux) not GRUB17:08
EriC^^TJ-: his installer isn't seeing his ssd17:08
TJ-EriC^^: Firmware controller mode issue - AHCI/RAID/IDE ?  ... UEFI/BIOS ?17:09
ciarankT his motherboard only has bios, no uefi, my nios is detecting my ssd but the installer isnt seeing it17:09
ioriaciarank, i think msdos is deprecated with ssd.... but not sure17:10
EriC^^wth is wrong with flash lately, i get 95'c cpu temps and now irc is in slow motion17:10
ciarankonce i have the usb created i will see what my bios settings are, cant remember off the top of my head now17:10
TJ-ciarank: If it's SATA, which SATA version does the SATA controller on the motherboard support, and what does the SSD support?17:10
TJ-ciarank: I've seen systems where the controller and drive won't agree to talk at SATA 2 (or 3) and have to be forced to use SATA 1 (1.5Gbps link)17:11
* EriC^^ remembers he installed fglrx-updates lately17:11
zzo38The xterm bell also doesn't work when I compile XTerm(271) from source17:11
EriC^^still flash is going bazerk though17:11
ciarankit supports sata 3Gb/s, the ssd im sure is 6Gb/s17:11
zzo38So possibly I misconfigured it and made the same mistake when configuring XTerm(297)?17:12
TJ-ciarank: Checking for that means, in the installer, getting to a root prompt and checking the output of 'dmesg' looking for SATA link negotiation issues17:12
TJ-EriC^^: flash, as in flash memory?17:12
EriC^^flashplugin17:12
EriC^^ever since the vulnerability update it's been hogging the cpu a lot17:13
TJ-EriC^^: Oh! ... disabled that pile of 0-days ages ago!17:13
ciarankpretty sure theres a solid reason that its getting phased out17:13
TJ-The only thing with more vulnerabilities is Microsoft Windows OS it seems, but vulnerabilities per line of code must be highest in Flash17:14
ciarankfinally17:16
ciarankim booting into a live ubuntu desktop!17:16
tewardgeneric question, but does anyone know of a USB 3.0 ethernet adapter that works out of the box with Ubuntu without any real additional driver installations?17:17
looseboltonWhy does dual booting have to be such black magic :/ I want to switch from Ubuntu to Arch but I'm afraid I'll mess up grub somehow17:18
looseboltonI guess I could just shrink my Ubuntu partition instead of getting rid of it17:21
TJ-loosebolton: don't allow Arch to install a boot-loader, or remove the Ubuntu GRUB and let Arch's GRUB do it. Don't keep both around else they'll both try changing the same files17:22
looseboltonYes, that's what I'm planning17:22
looseboltonI'll just add arch to ubuntu's menu17:22
Kalkarloosebolton; why would you like to switch to arch?17:23
looseboltonI'd like to learn more about how everything works together, and I think it would be easier to do when everything isn't already set up out of the box17:23
Kalkarloosebolton; then switching to arch is probably a very stupid idea17:24
looseboltonhow so?17:24
vigilant_Hello! I was using steam without problems for many months and today it suddenly wont start and gives me this error: "SteamUpdateUI: An X Error occurred17:24
vigilant_X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)" help!17:24
Kalkarloosebolton; ubuntu isn't windows, it is linux17:24
Kalkarloosebolton; you can always reconstruct it to your liking17:24
vigilant_I even tried to reinstall steam, after purging and deleting all things steam17:24
Kalkarloosebolton; in the process, you'll learn quite a bit17:24
TJ-loosebolton: When update-grub runs it has a script /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober that scans all file-systems it can find and if it finds a valid OS adds its entry to the grub.cfg.  So you don't want GRUB installed in more than 1 OS else the boot loader config might get confused as both attempt to make changes if they update files (e.g. kernels)17:24
Kalkarloosebolton; trust me17:24
Kalkarloosebolton; reconstructing ubuntu isn't that difficult, considering you have an internet connection and a USB drive with a distro installed since if nothing goes wrong, you can always switch over to the live distro on the USB, find a solution to the problem, and apply it on ubuntu17:26
Kalkaranything goes wrong*17:26

tgm4883vigilant_: when you say you purge all files, does that include the files in your home dir?18:08

wileeeBluewolf, Should you be doing this to a friends computer with this little of understanding, personally I'm not gonna touch this anymore.18:09

Bluewolftgm4883: Yes it has Ubuntu 14.04 on it, I want to put Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome as I don't like unity.18:14
TJ-Bluewolf: If the PC is already running Ubuntu, all you need to do is install the additional packages using "apt-get" or the Software Centre18:15
tgm4883Bluewolf: so do it via apt, don't bother with reinstalling the whole OS18:15
Bluewolfwileee: Indeed, and as us wish. Don't mean to bother, thanks for the help. :D18:16

Bluewolftgm4883: TJ-: I want a clean install. As I will be doing a dual boot as well.18:17
TJ-Bluewolf: OK, well if the USB device won't boot then first thing is to check the ISO download wasn't corrupted, by comparing the hash checksum against the list on the download pages18:18
tgm4883Bluewolf: how did you make the usb?18:18
TJ-Bluewolf: 2nd thing to try is if that USB device will boot on any other PC - if not, the image in it is likely corrupt and needs re-writing to it18:18
fallorewhere do i edit my start programs?18:18
BluewolfTj-: I doubt, At the time I downloaded and made my USB bootable I checked. And this os I am talking to you from is installed from that same usb. Also I seem to recall this friends laptop being a pain last time with a reinstall via USB.18:20

tgm4883vigilant_: maybe. I've got an AMD card on open source drivers though18:22
tgm4883although...18:22
vigilant_tgm4883: its maybe not as old as my 4650?18:23
tgm4883vigilant_: well WTF18:23
tgm4883vigilant_: thinking about it, I didn't start it on my AMD card previously. I've got the same error18:23
TJ-Bluewolf: without the model of the PC we're in no position to help since the issue is the PC - you're in front of it and have access to the firmware setup, we don't,18:23
tgm4883vigilant_: and there was a steam update last night...18:23
athanHey everyone - I can't seem to sign-in to my ubuntu desktop through ssh. I've installed openssh-server, but for some reason Doing `ssh athan@ip` won't accept my password18:23
vigilant_tgm4883:  :D :D18:23
tgm4883Bad valve! No biscuit18:23
athanit's asking for the password to the user, but rejects the correct one :\18:23
athanis there some group I need to add `athan` to?18:24
athan(This is on 15.04 btw)18:24
vigilant_tgm4883: so its a bug, I have no idea how to report those18:24
BluewolfTJ-: okay, how do I get the model number, where do I get it from the software side?18:24
tgm4883Bluewolf: 'sudo dmidecode | grep -i Product'18:25
TJ-Bluewolf: As I said before: "dmesg | grep DMI" should do it18:25
BluewolfOkay one moment18:25
BluewolfTJ-: tgm4883: Okay here - Product Name, 700Z3A/700Z4A/700Z5A/700Z5B18:29
tgm4883Bluewolf: and you want to dual boot what?18:30
TJ-Bluewolf: so this is thw Win8 user manual for that model I think http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201210/20121028104609083/Win8_Manual_eng.pdf18:31
tgm4883vigilant_: when is the last time you successfully started steam? come to think of it, I probaby didn't start steam on my AMD card yesterday18:31
Bluewolftgm4883: Windows 7 which appears to already be there, I guess I won't go through the hassle of reinstalling that as I don't have a windows disk.18:32
boot13Anyone know how to fix an unbootable system that shows error: symbol not found: grub_divmod64_full?18:32
vigilant_tgm4883: I definitevely started it yesterday18:32
TJ-Bluewolf: See page 10218:33
vigilant_tgm4883: was trying out some new humble jumbo bundle stuff :)18:33
tgm4883Bluewolf: I'm super confused now. It's already dual booting, you've got a working install of Ubuntu on there, and you said yourself that the laptop is a pain to install on. Why not just use apt to install gnome shell?18:33
TJ-Bluewolf: The clue is in "If you need to boot to DOS using a USB device, enter the BIOS Setup, select Advanced menu and set the Fast BIOS Mode item to Disabled"18:36
tgm4883vigilant_: ok, I've got a fix18:37
vigilant_tgm4883: I tried to contact steam support, but it feels like a maze of sh't18:37
vigilant_tgm4883: :D :D :D18:37
vigilant_tgm4883: hurra18:37
Bluewolftgm4883: And that would completely remove every trace of unity?18:37
tgm4883vigilant_: "find ~/.steam/root/ \( -name "libgcc_s.so*" -o -name "libstdc++.so*" -o -name "libxcb.so*" \) -print -delete" from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam#Steam_runtime_issues18:37
tgm4883Bluewolf: you could purge the unity stuff yes. This isn't windows where you need to reinstall the OS to fix 40% of the problems18:38
vigilant_tgm4883: I should run this command 'find ~/.steam/root/ \( -name "libgcc_s.so*" -o -name "libstdc++.so*" -o -name "libxcb.so*" \) -print -delete'  ?18:38
BluewolfTJ-: Page 102 is about changing the boot password, I dont get it. And the perpose of the Fast BIOS mode?18:39

wileeeunity is a tiny plugin in compiz sitting on top of gnome 3 that is a bad idea, has most of the shell already in place.18:39
vigilant_tgm4883: and then reboot?18:40
tgm4883vigilant_: ni18:40
tgm4883no18:40
Bluewolftgm4883: Old habits, truth is that I haven't been playing with this stuff for ages and have forgotten all the installation stuff. I feel bad :D18:40
TJ-Bluewolf: the BIOS config details start there, what little there is, and goes on to discuss the boot order options and the hint aobut disabling "Fast BIOS" mode which might the problem - Fast Boot (BIOS) mode usually means the default boot entry is loaded without first checking the boot devices for alternative boot loaders18:40
tgm4883vigilant_: just start steam after that18:40
vigilant_tgm4883: wooooow it woooorks :D :D :D18:40
vigilant_thanks18:40
vigilant_tgm4883: going to have to play all my adventure games to where I was before now though lol18:41
BluewolfTJ-: Okay should I go ahead and give it a try quickly?18:41
tgm4883vigilant_: it's just removing the steam libraries that point at the old mesa. It's using system libraries now18:41
TJ-Bluewolf: seems like a lot of un-necessary hassle if all you want is Gnome!18:41
=== Betal_j is now known as Betal
TJ-Bluewolf: but it might be useful as knowledge for the future to know if that is the cause18:42
tgm4883vigilant_: which means that A) a steam update in the future might mean you need to do that again, and B) it's possible you'll have some game instability since it's using newer libraries18:42
BluewolfTJ-: I find it easier, but yes it is useful to know. I'll give it a try18:42
vigilant_tgm4883: ahh, I think I might just buy me that nvidia. I dumpstered this whole computer :)18:43
vigilant_tgm4883: maybe the graphic card is too old18:43

BluewolfTJ-: Here is something interesting, there is no Fast boot in the bios, in Advanced. I do see Legacy USB support and UEFI Boot support (Which I don't know what it means)18:47
TheEagerPadawanif i would like to study for LPIC-1, what whould be a good source to start with?18:47
TJ-Bluewolf: Sounds like that 'Windows' user guide is as bad as it looked, with no real details and inaccurate info. "Legacy USB support" means the firmware provides drivers to access USB devices like keyboard/mice/mass-storage for the boot-loader to use until the operating system takes over18:49
TJ-Bluewolf: "UEFI boot support" probably means whether the system tries to boot first in UEFI mode, or tries Legacy BIOS mode18:49

=== roberto is now known as Guest93408
karmousy a quelqun18:54
TJ-Bluewolf: It sounds as if the machine is preventing the user from booting from removable media in some way, and the manual appears to contain incorrect information... I'd start with that. However, in the time you've spent messing about with this you could have done the "apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop" 100 times!18:54
tgm4883rebs: there appears to have been a change of bash between 14.10 and 15.0418:55
tgm4883rebs: a minor change though. It would probably help if we knew why you wanted to know that18:56
BluewolfTJ-: Okay fine, I'll do it. But that includes completely removing all traces of unity.18:56
rebswell its a bash question, so it would be off topic here18:57
TJ-Bluewolf: plenty of folks here can tell you how to remove Unity :)18:57
rebsor can i ask bash questions here18:57
TJ-rebs: If it's related to an Ubuntu install, and possibly a config change, yes18:57
BluewolfTJ-: You sure there up for the teaching, I'm a difficult student :D18:57
TJ-Bluewolf: I hadn't noticed :p18:57

mintuxthe output of libreoffice 4.* in jpg is broken. are there any same experience ?19:39
wileeeBluewolf, You're chasing a supposed street cred social/cultural bogus idea. Unity is tiny, it is a plugin in compiz, it is on top of what you just finished loading. It is just a DE not a political event, and removing it could really mess you up if done wrong and this is not even your computer. Only this is what I see.19:40
mintuxare there anyone have libreoffice 3.6 installation ?19:41
AppAraatthanks wileee, apparently it was using lightdm. It didn't have a /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf so I created it with "autologin-user=user" and "autologin-user-timeout=0" as the only two entries.19:42

maldridgegreetings all; I'm struggling to install drivers with ubuntu-drivers autoinstall, I want it to install proprietary drivers if there are any, otherwise install what is recommended, is there a way to do that?19:46
dawidd6maldridge what vendor?19:46
maldridgedawidd6: fglrx (amd)19:46
dawidd6maldridge: sudo apt-get install fglrx19:47
maldridgedawidd6: I have some machines that don't need fglrx though, which is why I was using ubuntu-drivers; is there a side effect to having it installed when not necessary?19:47
wileeeBluewolf, I don't doubt you're intentions are honorable, I just find them questionable in you taking the responsibility is all. that is all I will say, best of luck you will probably be fine.19:48
fallorewhen i play dota 2, using the alt button (which i use frequently) causes all sorts of trouble. it minimizes the game, it opens the right click dialog, etc. is there some way to disable all these shortcuts? i've looked in the keyboard settings menu but i dont see a lot of the problematic shortcuts19:50
wileeefallore, Unity desktop?19:50
dawidd6maldridge: i don't undestand you well, but i think it's not wrong to have proprietary and opensource drivers along side19:50
fallorewileee, i think so. fresh 14.04 install19:50
prwilsonanyone know how up-to-date fglrx-updates is compared to the amd catalyst download (current is 15.70)?  seems like ubuntu's version #s aren't in sync with amds19:51
DevilusHello, I recently bought 4 memory sticks of 8gb(32gb total), still ubuntu will detect only 16GB ram, what can I do?19:51
wileeefallore, menu on left of screen?19:51
fallorewileee, yes, which i hate :(19:51
transhumanhi how do i find the lvmid of a volume (I had to copy the boot sector from another install in order to recover19:51
prwilsonDevilus: sounds like an issue with your hardware.  the extra ram doesn't show up in the bios, does it?19:51
Devilusprwilson: actually it does, I looked up the setup, and it is there19:52
fallorewileee, i guess the problem is generally that the alt key is almost like the super key in windows? i think if i could change that most of my problems would go away19:52
Devilusprwilson: I also tried using lshw also shows it19:52
wileeefallore, Cool, there is a compizconfig setings manager you would install, the keybaord would be changed there, be very careful.19:52
wileeecareful with that manager overall19:52
maldridgedawidd6: I manage a large lab, some generations of hardware need fglrx, some don't.  I intend to use a single bootstrap script to get most of the system software installed and I was concerned if there are any adverse side effects to having fglrx installed when not needed19:53
prwilsonDevilus: what's not showing it?19:53
Devilusprwilson: free -m19:53
Devilusprwilson: I also tried gnome-system-manager, it is not shown there as well19:53
fallorewileee, is there like an overarching setting i can change so that alt doesn't do everything it does now? like could i make it the right alt, instead of left alt?19:53
prwilsonDevilus: are you running 64 bit ubuntu?19:53
Devilusprwilson: yep19:54
transhumanmaldridge it seems to work great, but I have noticed some things that concern me with the security of that solution. I could be wrong..I installed it on my kids machines but all of them failed a couple weeks after (just make sure you have a backup)19:54
wileeefallore, Not that I know of, as far as I know you have to hit each individually if customizing, however I have not had any issue needing this.19:54
Devilusprwilson: Not sure if it helps, but "sudo dmidecode --type memory" will also show all memory sticks19:55
fallorewileee, do you think getting rid of unity and using something else would fix the issue?19:56
Devilusprwilson: free -m will show only 16GB =/19:56
transhumananyone able to tell me how i find the lvmid?19:56
prwilsonDevilus: you aren't using xen are you?19:56

transhumanwithout peeking at the one thats wrong in grub19:56
Devilusprwilson: I don't think so, what is xen?19:56
prwilsonDevilus: also make sure yoiu have the latest bios19:56
wileeefallore, I would not worry about unity being there personally, but for gaming I assume the lightest usable de would be my choice, but I don't game.19:57
mgolischwhy dont you just boot a livecd and let update-grub fix stuff?19:57
Devilusprwilson: I have the latest bios19:57
transhumanas I said I had concern over multiple failures on machines that I installed it a couple weeks later19:57
mgolischor what exactly is your issue?19:57
fallorewileee, do you know what the 2nd most common alternative might be? is openbox an alternative or does that replace something else?19:57
transhumancould be something or it could be nothing19:57

maldridgefallore: you could try the planonlinux channels19:58
transhumanmgolish the whole first 1000MB of disk was wiped19:58
prwilsonDevilus: i don't know.  weird problem.  try resetting your bios and reseating your ram19:58
Devilusprwilson: It is also worth noting that the motherboard automatically sets the memory frequency to 1333, I have to set it to 1666 manually19:58
wileeefallore, Not sure really, that is sorta your area of investigation, although you will get subjective opinions on this.19:58
mgolischand there was nothing on that?19:59
prwilsonDevilus: see if it works at 1333.19:59
falloreof course wileee. thank you for your help, i'll start doing some research. was just hoping for a jumping-off point :)19:59
Devilusprwilson: k, let me check19:59
transhumannothing on what mgolisch19:59
mgolischlike iam not sure your lvm stuff will work if the lvm pv was partialy on those parts that were erased/overwritten19:59
transhumanthe first 1000 MB was wiped by an error19:59
wileeefallore, Sure I understand, best.20:00
transhumanI have created another disk with the same layout and same names only thing that remains wrong is the lvmid20:00
falloremaldridge, is playonlinux an app or a community?20:00
darkan app20:00
mgolischi think the lvm metadata is stored somewhere on the begining of the partition of the physical volume20:00
mgolischso its probably lost20:00
mgolischor do you lvm volumes actualy work?20:01
mgolischlike you can mount them successfully20:01
Devilusprwilson: Kind of helped, now at 1333MHz it recognizes a little bit more memory20:01
Devilusprwilson: 24GB20:01
mgolischlike if you do pvscan or vgscan or lvscan does it actualy list anything?20:01
Devilusprwilson: Seems like it somehow hardware related huh?20:02
prwilsonDevilus: yeah definitely.  at least you've got it recognizing more now.  i'd try reseating the ram and switching the chip locations when you do it.  you may also want to reset your bios.20:02

maldridgefallore: its a package that helps make wine work for a ton of stuff, but they have a decent community20:05
fallorethanks maldridge, i asked my question, hopefully i'll get a response :)20:06
fallorewhats the best way to make ubuntu work more like windows/linux mint, where you have a panel, your windows on that panel, and a "start menu" of sorts? am i looking for a windows manager, a different desktop environment, or what? just need to know some basics so i can point my research in the right direction20:06
transhumanmbr and first 1000 MB which had boot volume20:06
transhumanI am sure I can get it working with the lvmid20:07
maldridgefallore: you're looking for a different DE, lxde is lightweight, cinnamon is very windows like if you're not in a networked environment20:07
mgolischchroot into the install, run blkid to get uuid for the /boot fs add it to correctly to your fstab and run update-grub20:07
maldridgeboth will be more windows like20:07
falloremaldridge, what exactly do you mean by networked environment?20:07
mgolischor manuyl add it to your grub.cfg20:07
maldridgefallore: network logon20:07
falloreah ok maldrige, thanks a lot. i was using and enjoying cinnamon on linux mint so i might try that again20:08
transhumanalready did the uuid no problem20:08
transhumanso I guess I will chroot into install problem is its on lvm20:08
maldridgefallore: cinnamon has a huge bug for networked environments right now, if you don't have that its great;  you can get it from a PPA20:08
mgolischthen all should be golden20:08
mgolischgrub would only need to access /boot to load its config and the kernels20:08
falloremaldridge, is lubuntu a different distro or just a reference to ubuntu using that specific DE?20:09
mgolischit shouldnt realy care for any of your lvm stuff20:09
maldridgefallore: both, it is an officially supported respin of ubuntu, but you can install lubuntu-desktop on regular ubuntu and get pretty much the same thing20:09
mgolischunless /boot was actualy within that20:09
fallorethank you for all the help maldridge. i'm going to jump in and do that, hopefully all goes well :)20:11
maldridgefallore: good luck; have fun!20:11
mgolischmaybe just run grub-install again just to be sure and update-grub to fix your grub.cfg from within the chroot20:11

bekkspaulmadore: Yeah.20:47
paulmadorek20:47
paulmadore2mins (thanks for yr help btw)20:47
maldridgeyeats: more like each user has an individually accessible share that is nfs based, and how else would you do homes on remote storage than nfs20:47
yeatsmaldridge: I've never been put in a situation where I would need to do that, so I don't know.  Perhaps someone else can help with that, but I would definitely recommend putting home directories on local storage in general20:49
maldridgeyeats: not possible for ~4000 users, but thanks for the replies20:50
RaulwynnI have a ubuntu support question: How can I get Steam to launch? I click and it does nothing. when I look into the issue it says I need 32-bit library so I type "sudo apt-get install ia32-libs" but I get this error "Package ia32-libs is not available, but is referred to by another package.20:50
RaulwynnThis may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or20:50
Raulwynnis only available from another source20:50
RaulwynnHowever the following packages replace it:20:50
Raulwynn  lib32z1 lib32ncurses520:50
maldridgedaftykins: nothing in the logs that I can see, but firefox and libreoffice are very slow, i assume that is related to them building profiles on disk, but I don't know how to confirm that20:50
RaulwynnE: Package 'ia32-libs' has no installation candidate"20:50
yeatsmaldridge: this may provide some ideas: http://serverfault.com/questions/19323/is-it-feasible-to-have-home-folder-hosted-with-nfs20:51
daftykinsmaldridge: best test, quickly try a guest session which presumably would create a /home outside of your NFS mount (unless you mount the whole of /home there) then see if it behaves?20:52
paulmadorebekks: so now it doesn't throw that error when i load 3.19.0-15. i thought maybe i should try *-21 again, and i got th same thing. no reasoning, just put you over here into intframs where you don't know what you're doing paulmadore.20:53
paulmadorebut -15 is still working. which is fine by me, except there's a lot of updates that won't install at this point. i'm worried.20:53
maldridgedaftykins: firefox loads much faster, but libreoffice still feels sluggish (though it is an older version than I'm familiar with)20:53
maldridgeRaulwynn: you need to install the packages it said replace it20:54
paulmadorei noticed the new libreoffice is much cleaner on ram usage maldridge20:54
paulmadore4x i think it is20:54
paulmadorei use it daily for work20:54
wileeemaldridge, libreoffice is much faster in later editions.20:54
bekkspaulmadore: And which update in particular does not install on -15?20:54
paulmadoreone second bekks20:55
wileeeopening anyway, strange to be sluggish in use.20:55
maldridgepaulmadore: wileee: I agree, I plan to update as soon as I can confirm it won't break anything20:55
paulmadoreThe upgrade needs a total of 69.0 M free space on disk '/boot'. Please free at least an additional 12.6 M of disk space on '/boot'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'.20:56
maldridgeso emacs loads files from the shares with no perceptible lag, it seems like its only things that are writing profile data20:56
bekkspaulmadore: So free up space by uninstalling old kernels.20:56
paulmadoreis it possible to uninstall say 21 whilst leaving 15?20:57
daftykinspaulmadore: yes, confirm package names with "dpkg -l | grep linux-image" bearing in mind corresponding -extra- packages must be removed prior to the main generic kernel packages20:57
bekkspaulmadore: Uninstall _old_ kernels. -15 is your current, -21 is newer, Everything older than -14 :)20:57

EriC^^ErfanBs: highlight the text, then press middle mouse button to paste, or shift+insert22:09
k1l_soulisson: i dont know what you are on about. every service need a script that tells the init what to do. that is still the same as upstart or init.d . its just different in the details where it looks for it and what it expects, see the link from OerHeks22:10
EriC^^i think you need to modify the list from history.log first to remove the ","22:10
metempOerHeks, Do you know it can/should be visible as a ttyUSB device ?22:10
EriC^^ErfanBs: if you have gedit paste the list there, and use the search & replace feature to replace the "," with ""22:11
soulissonk1l_, i just want to know if in this case systemctl calls the systemd executable, i know that systemctl is used to manage services22:12
OerHeksmetemp, sure, open terminal: lsusb, and it should show something like "Bus 002 Device 005: ID 072f:90cc Advanced Card Systems, Ltd ACR38 SmartCard Reader"22:12
k1l_soulisson: what "systemd executable"? systemd runs all the time, that is the sense behind an init system.22:13

arooni-mobilei have a lenovo t420 laptop with display port output and VGA output.  it has intel 3000 integrated graphics.  can i run two monitors at the same time with this setup, each monitor @ 1920x1080?22:57
sjmikemiwconfig wlan0 shows: IEEE 802.11abgn22:57
TJ-Multiple Input, Multiple Output - the ability to send/receive using more than 1 antenna, thus upping the total throughput22:57
OerHeksarooni-mobile, both HDMI ?22:57
arooni-mobileOerHeks, both monitors will be HDMI input only22:57
sjmikemis that expected with 11n_disable=1?22:58
arooni-mobileoh i mean HDMI and VGA22:58
OerHeksarooni-mobile, both hdmi it is possible, or both dvi. a mix i am not sure.22:58
brainwashsjmikem: the 'n' should not appear there I'd guess22:58
arooni-mobileOerHeks, well i mean monitors support HDMI input and VGA input22:58
OerHeksarooni-mobile, depends how ther are connected22:59
sjmikembrainwash: Any idea where else I might need to disable, besides /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.config ?22:59
sjmikemalso some sites suggest it should be =8 instead of 1...23:00
TJ-sjmikem: the file in "/etc/modprobe.d/" should be called "iwlwifi.conf" not ".config"23:03
ObrienDavearooni-mobile, yes, it should be possible23:03
sjmikemd'oh23:03
sukuis there any way to force a monitor to display past its native resolution? i have an older netbook that has a 1024x600 resolution and it causes issues seeing menus fully - would love to try to force it to 1024x768 without panning and understand it would look stretched23:04
bekkssuku: Most displays cannot exceed its native resolution.23:05
sjmikemfixed that and now "n" is no longer showing23:05
sjmikemthanks!23:05
sjmikemstupid me23:05
ObrienDavesuku, LCD, no, CRT maybe but will probably cause damage23:06
brainwashsjmikem: didn't a iwlwifi.conf already exist?23:06
sukuthat stinks, was thinking perhaps some xrandr options might work23:06
sjmikembrainwash: I had misnmaed it .config instead23:07
sukui know it can be forced in windows, just didnt know of linux23:07
brainwashsjmikem: I understand this. however, the package kmod installs a file named iwlwifi.conf already23:07
sukui'll ask in ##linux as well just to make sure there arent any other options23:08
OerHekssuku, in windows without panning? what would look terrible23:08
ObrienDavesuku, once again, you probably will cause damage to the CRT if you try23:08
brainwashsjmikem: well, I'm just wondering why you've not seen it (or why it's missing in your case)23:08
sukuOerHeks: yeah, there is a registry hack and it looks stretcched but it does work23:08
sjmikemhmmm not sure..my dpkg log includes:23:09
sjmikem/var/log/dpkg.log.2.gz:2015-05-18 12:50:08 status half-configured kmod:amd64 18-1ubuntu223:09
sjmikemis that unusual?23:10
ObrienDavesuku, you could try reducing the PPI of your fonts from say, 96 PPI to 8523:10
ObrienDaveor the other way around23:10
ObrienDavewhichever works LOL23:10
sukuObrienDave: yeah i will see if that makes any differences23:11
sukuthe biggest issues obviously is just not being able to see "OK" or "Cancel" on application menus that are specified for x768 resolutions23:13
brainwashsjmikem: maybe run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" then23:14
ObrienDaveyea, i have the same issue from time to time23:14
sjmikembut sudo apt-get install --reinstall kmod did not put the file there...23:14
brainwashsjmikem: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/amd64/kmod/filelist23:15
sjmikemso if I upgrade to 4.0 kernel, I will not be able to run Virtualbox?  Or I'll just have to rebuild the drivers from scratch?23:15
brainwashsjmikem: I suggest that you ask in #vbox23:16
TJ-sjmikem: *move* your file to another name, such as "iwlwifi2.conf"  then "sudo apt-get install --reinstall kmod"23:17
sjmikemTJ-: that's what I did23:17
sjmikemhow do I tell apt-get to show the files it is installing?23:18
TJ-sjmikem: the --reinstall will have put back the missing iwlwifi.conf then23:18
sjmikemit's not, though...23:20
OerHekssjmikem, there is no 4.x for trusty http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D 3.15 is the latest for you, else you need to build your own.23:21
sjmikemOerHeks: I'm on vivid23:21
sjmikemTJ-: apt-file list kmod shows it there...23:21
sjmikemdoes apt-get have a verbose mode?23:21
sjmikemman shows -V that shows verbose version23:22
TJ-sjmikem: Hmmm, I tried it here and you're correct; --reinstall isn't23:23

sjmikemuninstall kmod and reinstall seems to create the file23:34
=== arrow is now known as Guest95471
TJ-sjmikem: here you go: "sudo apt-get -o DPkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" --reinstall install kmod"23:37
smo80what s your problem rsftw ? (don t need money...)23:38
TJ-sjmikem: the cause is that the files are what's known as 'conffiles' and if you make any changes the package manager assumes you're exercising your sys-admin role and doesn't try to change anything23:38
sjmikemTJ-: ah, makes sense23:39
TJ-sjmikem: that reports: Configuration file `/etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf', does not exist on system.23:39
TJ-Installing new config file as you requested.23:39
sjmikemnow to reinstall the pkgs that I accidentally purged when I removed kmod :-/23:39
sjmikemstop laughing :-)23:40
ObrienDaveNEVAH! ;P23:40
rsftwhi, on windwos i use a .bat file to allocate ram to an app Java -jar app.jar 2048 . how can i do this on ubuntu ? :D ty23:42
mikael?23:46
bpromptrsftw:     same command pretty much, make a file, name it whatever, usually to distinguish it, you'd want to name it with an .sh extension...   myjavaapp.sh      1st line in file ->  #!/bin/bash;    2nd line-> java -jar app.jar 2048, save the file...to.say.. ~, and right-click it, to change the permissions, set "execute" permissions on it23:46
