wafflejockRaulwynn, any changes to the boot/install media you're using from the first install?01:49
wafflejockRaulwynn, looks like most people with the problem either had a bad installation media (possibly without enough space) or had to disable dmraid by hitting F6 at the grub menu when using the installation01:50
RaulwynnOkay i messed up and tried to install win7 sovthatvI could dualboot with ubuntu since the install was gorkedcearluer with gnome.01:51
RaulwynnSo that I01:51
wafflejockthat's alright but after installing Win7 you're getting this error when trying to boot the Ubuntu install then?01:52
RaulwynnBut withvthe recent update, win 7 is magically incompatable with the compy and now its givingvmy hdd a fuss. Ive tried reformattingvit but bo avail.01:52

qsubRaulwynn sounds like you could use a ubuntu live cd01:55
wafflejockRaulwynn, it might be that windows flipped some things around in your BIOS or something, typically haven't seen either system really cause hardware damage though01:55
qsuband use that repair tool that i forgot the name of01:55
RaulwynnI am using a live cd01:55
qsubbut it sounds like you need to do some work on grub?01:55
RaulwynnYeah01:56
qsubRaulwynn see if you can find ubuntu boot-repair01:56
qsuband run it from the live cd01:56
qsubthat might do the trick01:56

Raulwynn.02:16
eindoofussounds like vnc is a good bet. thanks guys02:16
qsubRaulwynn how did it mess it up ?02:16
beed@raulwynn that doesn't add up. you boot from usb from your bios, not from windows.02:16
qsubRaulwynn what error message do you get, if any ? Device not found?02:17
squinty_Raulwynn,   might want to consider reinstalling Windows then  read   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI  and then reinstall linux (recommended method)\02:17
RaulwynnNothing. It justcsits on the ubuntu screen loading for hours and only started after i tried installing win702:17
ObrienDavesounds like a low-level format of the drive is in order02:18
beed@raulwynn are you trying to install from within a windows session?02:18
beedor is the install failing after booting into your usb's iso02:18
qsubcould be a bad iso/usb installation02:19

beedthat's why i'm asking to clarify where he's trying to install from. keeps talking about windows...02:19
qsubhttp://www.linuxliveusb.com/ is good02:20

RaulwynnIm installing from live usb02:21
beedthat would be why they don't show screenshots :P02:21
RaulwynnBut live usb wont boot02:21
qsubno seriously, it's like this flashy sticky fancy thing02:22
beedokay, raulwynn. so that means that you have your computer powered off, you insert your usb, and you boot from your usb drive, right?02:22
RaulwynnPlug into other computer boots02:22
qsubit's horrible02:22
qsubbut it works02:22

beed@qsub i'm partial to pendrive myself but w/e. @raulwynn ignore windows for a second. boot *from* the usb drive on your issue workstation and let's go from there.02:23

RaulwynnI cant boot from usb for the hundredthvtime02:23
RaulwynnI cannot bootvfrom usb02:23

RaulwynnYes02:23
qsubRaulwynn did you just paste the iso into your usb manually?02:23
beedand it works in another?02:23
RaulwynnYes ive said this before02:24
beed@raulwynn, try a different usb port on the issue workstation.02:24
RaulwynnDone that.02:24
RaulwynnNothing.02:24
qsubRaulwynn don't paste it, delete it, and install the iso into your usb drive using the software from these guys: http://www.linuxliveusb.com/02:24
* wileee looks down the well of helpers and waves at those whom wasted there time with this user02:24
beed@qsub he says that it "works" on another workstation so02:24
beeddon't think that's the problem02:24
RaulwynnThe usb isnt the issue02:24
RaulwynnIve said that before too02:25

beed@raul if it works on one computer, and not on another02:26
zack_Well cya02:26
qsubwell i had a problem before where my stuff wouldn't boot up because i was using UEFI mode, and had to change to legacy mode to get stuff working. so like hardware related02:26
beedthe issue is within that one computer. my guess would be the port/connection is bad, or your bios is fucked02:26
beed@qsub he said his problem workstation is win7, so unless he downgraded from 8 in some weird manner then that's not the issue02:27
RaulwynnOkay nowvim getting somewhere.02:27
RaulwynnI have02:27
RaulwynnI had 8.102:27
RaulwynnThen an updat cameva week ago02:27
beedwhen you downgraded, did you wipe it completely and then install 7, or just do some weird win8-to-7 downgrade thing?02:27

dinoocchThis may be an odd question, but we have an ubuntu based lab, when we added kerberos and pam_mount, login (local and krb users) hangs for an extended time with just a black screen with a mouse from lightdm or a motd from a tty. However, this only happens on 3 of ~40 machines...any ideas on where to look further?04:26
dinoocchauth log confirms that the users have authenticated, and nothing much seems amiss -.-04:26

qsubeasyOnMe you need to set up OpenSSH on your ubuntu machine04:33
qsubthen you need to open port 22 on your firewall04:33
qsubthen you need to start running sshd04:33
easyOnMeqsub: by openSSH you mean the openSSH server04:34
easyOnMeI already did that04:34
qsubeasyOnMe did you open port 22 on your router?04:34
qsubeasyOnMe try ufw allow 22 as root04:36
easyOnMeqsub: then what's next04:36
qsubeasyOnMe after that do service restart sshd04:36
easyOnMeok after that what's next04:37
qsubeasyOnMe go to www.myipaddress.com , get your ip in there and try to ssh\04:37
qsubssh yourusername@yourip04:37
qsubin putty04:37
easyOnMeqsub: ok one more thing though this approach of ours - I have tried it before but only using my Windows 7 office laptop at home... I manage to access by ubuntu 14.04 ls at home - does this principle apply if I use the Windows 7 office laptop but this time using our office network04:38
qsubas long as your ubuntu machine is running, port 22 is open, and the sshd daemon is enabled, you should be able to connect to it from anywhere04:39
grymomo_: hi.04:39
easyOnMeqsub: oh ok04:40
qsub:P04:40
grymomo_: can you type ``mount'' in a terminal and put the output to paste.ubuntu.com ?04:40
easyOnMeso what is important of course is to make sure my laptop at home is left switched on04:40
qsubpretty much04:40
easyOnMethen wherever and whenever I can access my laptop04:40
momo_gry i will04:40
easyOnMewell of course the internet at home switched on too04:40
qsubyep04:40
qsuband your config is right04:40
Tophqsub,,, if your machine at home is in suspend mode, can you remotely awaken it?04:41
momo_gry http://paste.ubuntu.com/11946756/04:41
qsubToph i'm not sure if you can still ssh to it, if you could than maybe yes04:41
Tophok04:41
qsubToph but if you have a lan house setup(more than 1 machine connected to the same address) you could use another machine to wake it up04:42
grymomo_: ls -la /home/sasa/.Private/04:42
momo_gry am not sure what you mean do you want me to type that into the terminal04:44
gryYes.04:44
gryTo clarify: it lists files in that directory.04:45
momo_gry http://paste.ubuntu.com/11946774/04:46
grymomo_: ls -la /home/sasa/Private (if that directory exists)04:47
momo_gry it says that this file  or directory does not exist the last paste i have sent had blue and red lines that were not copied into the paste04:49
qsubeasyOnMe make sure you have a strong root password because chinese bots might try to brute force it04:51
grymomo_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome has more details. I would try to log out and log in again.04:51
momo_gry tried to login and logout allready04:51
easyOnMeqsub: ok that is a good advice04:52
easyOnMebut related to that how do I know that right now my ubuntu laptop is not compromised by these chinese hackers04:52
easyOnMeusing their bots04:52
momo_gry do you think that those files are lost ? if they r just hidden right now04:52
momo_i could calm down a little04:53
grymomo_: try "ecryptfs-mount-private" command in terminal04:53
qsubeasyOnMe pretty much once you open that SSH port and start listening to it attacks will happens. that's just normal internert shenanigans04:53
qsubeasyOnMe people have these chinese bots constantly scanning for vulnerable machines to infect......04:53
easyOnMeqsub: so how do I protect myself04:54
cfhowlettmuch more likely to be hacked by your government than anyone else04:54
qsubeasyOnMe there's "advanced ways" to stop it if you don't like the concept of having 5000 intrusion attempts a day04:54
qsubeasyOnMe 1. Disable password authentication and use only "Public Keys"04:54
easyOnMeqsub: how04:54
easyOnMecan I learn that04:54
qsub2. Use a different port04:54
qsub3. Disable root login at /etc/ssh/sshd_config04:55
momo_gry no such directory04:55
qsubwhere it says PermitRootLogin yes change it to PermitRootLogin no04:55
qsubsave and restart sshd04:55
qsubyou might want to google the key authentication stuff04:55
qsubbut as long as you have a good root password you will be just fine04:56

pratikHi, I am running a command from one machine on another machine using ssh.05:50
pratik ssh <host> a.pl05:50
pratikNow, a.pl starts several other instances of a.pl using the 'system' method and executing each of them in the background. I have this integrated with LDAP and when one of the instances dies, the main a.pl script comes to know about this as it continuously keeps on monitoring them. I would expect ssh to exit when this main script dies. But, somehow it seems that ssh keeps on waiting on all the processes that were launched. ssh exits wh05:50
pratikWhy is this so??05:50
ObrienDaveSmilerut, no, you get either command line only or GUI05:50
SmilerutObrienDave: GUI feels a tad too bloated, is there anything I can do about that05:50
ObrienDaveSmilerut, you can get themes to suit your "tastes"05:51
grySmilerut, type 'ubuntu' into a web images search engine. I have some taste but I am sure it is not the same as yours.05:51

easyOnMehow  do I know whehter my ubuntu laptop is compromised06:04
santosh_somsip: my query is what is the time gap between a openstack release and ubuntu release...supporting that specific openstack release..06:05
ObrienDavesantosh_, ubuntu's primary goal is stability of the OS. very RARELY will you get the newest software in the offical repos06:06
somsipsantosh_: depends whether the new release is a major or minor release. IIRC major releases will never be included in an existing release of ubuntu, minor releases will be included in non-LTS but not in LTS, and only bug/security fixes included in LTS06:06
santosh_do i need to pay for ubuntu LTS release ?06:08
cfhowlettsantosh_, no06:08
ObrienDaveno06:08
ObrienDavesantosh_, 14.04 is the latest LTS06:08
santosh_do i need to pay for ubuntu server which is LTS ?06:08
ObrienDaveno06:09
ObrienDaveyou don't need to pay for ANY open source Ubuntu version06:09
santosh_thanks guys for your explanation :)06:09
cfhowlettsantosh_, you don't *need* to pay for ubuntu support, but if the volunteer and public support is insufficient, you can consider paying for dedicated support from Canonical06:09
santosh_Ubuntu can be used clearly for openstack production deployment right ? and which is free also..06:10
ObrienDavedon't see why not06:11
lalaUbuntu is Linux.06:13
lalaNot Unix.06:13
santosh_my last query - Suppose today i am working on ubuntu 14.04 LTS server for openstack, and suppose a new release for openstack comes with one specifc feature "ABC".... how will i ensure that this "ABC"06:13
somsiplala: no. Ubuntu uses the linux kernel.06:13
lalaGood.06:13
santosh_comes to my existing deployment ?06:13
* ObrienDave knows nothing about openstack06:14
wileeesantosh_, By being skilled enough to use it, if not in the release.06:15
santosh_means ubutu will give that OS specific support ?06:15
cfhowlettsantosh_, OS?  ubuntu IS the OS.06:16
santosh_cfhowlett: yes Ubuntu is OS...06:16
santosh_cfhowlett: Means when ubuntu will provide its support for "ABC" feature of openstack..06:17
wileeesantosh_, Support is on OS's not EOL OS's and packages from the Ubuntu repos06:18
cfhowlettsantosh_, new features are sometimes backported to earlier *buntus.  if it's a feature you just can't live without and it's NOT backported, you can upgrade to a new version of ubuntu.  #openstack seems to be rolled into ubuntu fairly rapidly but NOT instantly.06:18
santosh_cfhowlett: great !! so thats my query when this will be backported ...means time frame ?06:18
cfhowlettsantosh_, when the package maintainers do it ...06:19
santosh_cfhowlett: Approximately after how much time..06:19
cfhowlettsantosh_, you'd have to ask openstack.  it's their project, not ubuntu's.06:20

ObrienDaveo/07:18
ObrienDave;P07:18
lordievaderHehe07:19
lordievadero/07:19
OerHeksSo what should compiling capabilities be on commandline? apt-cache search gcc ?07:21
lordievaderOerHeks: ./configure -> make -> make install?07:21
nils_build-essential maybe what you're looking for07:21
nils_compilers, make etc.07:21
slvrby_OerHeks : hi, no I mean all the compile capabilities of ubuntu at the moment, like for fortran, java, python, c, c++ and every other possible thing07:22
slvrby_I have build-essential and jdk already installed07:22
lordievaderslvrby_: If you install the compiler for it you can compile it.07:22
slvrby_and they are working just fine07:22
slvrby_I just want to know what exactly can I run or compile from source on my machine at the momenbt07:23
slvrby_like what can my machine compile07:23
lordievaderAnything, if you have the compiler.07:23
slvrby_with current configuration07:23
OerHeksoh, something like this>>  dpkg --list | grep compiler07:23
slvrby_<OerHeks> : yes exactly, but this command doesn't list jdk07:24
slvrby_while I have it and I can compile with javac07:24
pratikgry: any idea about the ssh problem I mentioned?07:25
slvrby_EriC^^ : hi EriC^^, how you doing?07:25
EriC^^hi slvrby_ good, you?07:26
slvrby_thanks mate07:26
slvrby_just doin fine07:26
EriC^^what's up?07:26
slvrby_with me? or with the channel?07:26
EriC^^you07:27
slvrby_well I am trying to get a detailed info report on my compiling capabilities of my machine07:27
slvrby_dpkg --list | grep compiler   was suggested, but it doesn't list everything07:27
slvrby_like it doesn't list my javac07:28
slvrby_I want to know what my machine can compile exactly, with current installed compilers and configurations07:28
OerHekssome equelevant of the fedora command 'yum groupinfo "Development tools" ?07:28
OerHeksthere is no such extended info i guess.07:29
slvrby_I am not familiar with fedora commands that much, but yes maybe07:29
OerHeksslvrby_, i think you need to examin that per language.07:29
nils_There is a Section attribute I think which you can probably somehow query (Section: devel for gcc for example)07:30
nils_but this will probably list all dev headers as well07:30
EriC^^slvrby_: why don't you use something like a configure file that checks what you have07:30
slvrby_EriC^^ : I have no idea what that means... I mean practically07:30
ali_hello07:31
slvrby_EriC^^ : btw I am not trying to check and see if my code would compile or not, I just want to make a profile, and if someone asked a question like: "what can you run, or what can you compile on your machine" then I would give him this list and say here is what I can compile or run from code07:32
slvrby_on this specific machine, at this time and date, with this configuration07:33
slvrby_I remember a few years ago I saw a piece of script or software, i don't remember exactly, that did something like this07:34
slvrby_on debian07:34
OerHeksslvrby_, oke, then showing what you can do on comandline is pretty useless, show the development section in softwarecenter/synaptic ( i prefer synaptic)07:35
slvrby_But I don't have all the things from dev section of software center installed on my machine07:35
slvrby_I only have gcc and java and a few fortran thingies07:36
BluewolfHi all, If I were to completely remove the Unity flavour and everything attached to it, would this be the right command? - http://paste.ubuntu.com/11947147/07:36
slvrby_oh and ofcourse python by default, but stil I want an official list... any ways thank you guys I think we have spent enough time on my problem07:36
BluewolfI am using Ubuntu 14.0407:37
cfhowlettBluewolf, 1.  why?  2.  proceed with caution.  unity is tightly integrated in ubuntu.  disabling/removing unity could break things. 3.  consider a different flavor07:37
cfhowlett!flavor | Bluewolf07:37
ubottuBluewolf: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu.07:37
lordievaderBluewolf: !purekde07:38
lordievader!purekde | Bluewolf07:38
ubottuBluewolf: If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde »07:38
lordievaderOther way round...07:38
cfhowlettthere is no !pureunity   Think about that.07:39
EriC^^actually pure unity means just unity installed07:39
ObrienDaveBluewolf, that command would certainly leave you with a half borked system07:39
OerHeks!puregnome > OerHeks07:39
ubottuOerHeks, please see my private message07:39
Bluewolfcfhowlett: I disagree with unity, I have the Gnome flavour installed and want it to remain purely gnome. Basically everything to do with unity that is of no use to me with Gnome, I would like off my machine with only important operating system software remaining if it has to.07:41
lordievaderBluewolf: Anyhow, it is usually easier to install a different flavour fresh then trying to remove a previous one.07:41
cfhowlettBluewolf, so download ubuntu-gnome and install that flavor.  much less likely to bork things.07:41
Bluewolflordievader: I have gnome installed, just remnants of unity to remove and then a happier life :D07:42
pragomer1I remastered (manually via chroot) ubuntu 14.04 and 15.04. In both I installed "virtualbox-guest-utils". In 15.04 fullscreen in vbox works, in 14.04 the guest additions seem to be non active.. do you have an explanation for this?07:42
Bluewolfcfhowlett: bork things, I have Gnome installed?07:43
cfhowlettBluewolf, you like gnome.  you don't like unity.  so INSTALL ubuntu-gnome flavor and be done with it.07:43
ObrienDaveif it's not hurting anything, WHY do you want to take a chance on killing your system?07:44
=== Bae is now known as GitGud
cfhowlettBluewolf, REMOVING components from a tightly integrated unity/ubuntu has the potential to bork things.  installing gnome, in and of itself, does not.07:44
cyberalex4lifeBluewolf, I tried once installing gnome shell together with unity and some things didn't work fine07:44
diffract|how can i disable alt-left mouse click on ubuntu 14.94?07:45
diffract|i use it for some applications07:45
ObrienDave14.94? ;p07:45
cyberalex4lifediffract|, If I recall, from compiz07:45
diffract|oh07:46
Bluewolfcfhowlett: Yes thats what I am doing, but I want to remove the unity because its causing a number of annoying glitches and bugs I really don't have time to fix or learn to fix, specially when I don't like it. I only said on removing what can be removed of unity. If I were to reinstall Ubuntu (The same one) with a live Gnome USB then there would not be any traces of Unity in it would there?07:47
wileeeyes07:49
wileeenothing is removed lol07:49
cfhowlettBluewolf, your system, your choice.  You seem determined to go the riskier route. As has been suggested - repeatedly - you COULD just install https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME  but hey, you're the boss.  Good luck. No further advice from me on this issue.07:49
Bluewolfcfhowlett: look I don't mean to be a pest on the issue, I am rather unsure about the whole thing and most likely don't know enough about linux to understand the stuff. I'm just throwing questions in an attempt to get answers.07:54
ObrienDaveBluewolf, we have given you what we consider to be the SAFEST answers. If you want to scalp your OS, your choise07:55
ObrienDave*choice07:55
wileeeI run the shell release there is unity core in it,07:55
BluewolfObrienDave: Okay, like I said I don't know enough to do that. Thanks.07:57
EriC^^Bluewolf: if you're feeling experimental check here http://paste.ubuntu.com/11947218/07:58
wileeeBluewolf, Use the mini net install next time, and load what you want.07:58
EriC^^i dont know if it's right though, use at your own risk :D07:58
AppAraathi, I have 14.04, trying to run rtorrent. Somehow despite many attempts I still get the error "rtorrent: Could not lock session directory: "/home/me/Download/torrents/", No such file or directory"07:59
AppAraatthis is my conf - http://apaste.info/dsB07:59
BluewolfEriC^^: Thanks but I think I will play it safe.07:59
EriC^^alright08:00
AppAraatI tried changing "directory = ~/Download/" to  "directory = ./Download/" and even with full path, no luck.08:00
AppAraatchmodding everything from Downloads folder to 777 also didn't work.08:00
EriC^^gave out a hell of a long list08:00
EriC^^the logic makes sense though so i dunno08:00
AppAraatalso, there is no rtorrent.lock anywhere in those dirs.08:00
EriC^^it checks if an ubuntu desktop dependency is in gnome-desktop's dependency, if not, adds it to the list08:01
Ben64AppAraat: use full paths everywhere08:03
BluewolfObrienDave: Is the unity software spread throughout the Ubuntu system or is it mealy a flavour like any other, for example: If I were to download a Gnome, Lubuntu or Xubuntu live CD's and install one of them on my PC, do they have unity software in the base system or the flavours software?08:05
EriC^^Bluewolf: it's just a de08:06
BluewolfEriC^^: DE?08:06

AppAraatBen64: but I tried doing that, still same error.08:07
Ben64AppAraat: pastebin full command and error08:07
wileeemy gnome only has unity in it, out of site, no DE08:07
BluewolfOh okay08:08
coffeecuppanyone using bspwm on here???08:08
ObrienDaveBluewolf, the "core" system is the same for all flavors of Ubuntu, you just install different DEs and WMs (Window Managers)08:09
Bluewolfwileee: So you installed with Unity then just added the Gnome flavour, so unity runs in the background?08:09
wileeeBluewolf, Nope it is the shell release08:09
wileeegnome shell08:09
OerHekscoffeecupp, is it in softwarecenter?08:09
EriC^^how does gnome not have software-center installed? i wonder if apt-rdepends has a bug in it08:10
coffeecuppnope its a window manager08:10
BluewolfObrienDave: Thank you, that now puts things into perspective for me.08:10
EriC^^O.o08:10
ObrienDaveBluewolf, most welcome08:10
OerHekscoffeecupp, i know what wm means, but not what i asked08:10

wileeeBluewolf, The gnome release is a modified ubuntu, not a build, so a mini install may be different, but as suggested the base system shares.08:11
AppAraatand the command is simply rtorrent08:11
EriC^^AppAraat: is your username "me" ?08:12
AppAraatyes08:12
OerHeksAppAraat, you did a 777 on that folder?08:13
AppAraatyes, recursively. I'll try doing that again but using full paths this time.08:13
EriC^^AppAraat: it's supposed to be /home/e/Downloads not Download i think08:13
EriC^^i mean /home/me/Downloads08:14
BluewolfObrienDave: Okay so Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Mythbuntu are types of OS variations while Unity, Gnome, XFCE, KDE and LXDE are the flavours which can be used on each OS variation of Ubuntu. Am I right?08:15

ObrienDave!flavors | Bluewolf, sort of.08:17
ubottuBluewolf, sort of.: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu.08:17
AppAraatEriC^^: you are correct. I should either A.) Get some sleep, considering I've been up 16h straight or B.) Get more coffee.08:17
cfhowlettBluewolf, each ubuntu !flavor comes with a specific interface, e.g. lxde, xfce4 AND is packages with a set of default apps.  ALL !flavors are "ubuntu" OS08:17
EriC^^Bluewolf: ubuntu can come without a de, and you can install whatever de you want, making it xubuntu if you want xfce as the de08:17
AppAraatEriC^^: since you've pointed out my stupid mistake, I will let you choose over my fate.08:18
brollypopstaying 16h up isnt reallly unusual, for me at least08:18
AppAraatwell yeah I can do it... but the consequences have been noted in this channel :p08:18
ObrienDaveAppAraat, i suggest sleep :)08:19
AppAraatthat is only for EriC^^ to decide at this point :p08:19
EriC^^me too, unless the fate of the free world lies in your hands, or something to like that08:20
BluewolfOkay now I appear to be on the same time line with everyone, thank you for the patience and help ;-)08:20
ObrienDavejust a suggestion ;P08:20

ObrienDaveBluewolf, what did you use to make the USB?08:27

ObrienDaveBluewolf, does your laptop have a DVD reader?08:29
amincdwhy doesn't my update manager automatically prompt to upgrade to 14.04 from the current 12.04?08:30
BluewolfObrienDave: Yes it does and it boots fine off that, ah problem is that I don't have any DVD's :(08:30
amincdI thought it tried to upgrade to any LTS release, and 14.04 is LTS08:30
OerHeksamincd, set that in your sources menu/update options menu.08:30
cfhowlettamincd, default is NOT lts upgrades.  you need to select it.08:31
ObrienDaveBluewolf, 5 min break, please08:31
OerHeksyou would get that question when 12.04 runs out of support, so 201708:31
amincdOerHeks: oh I see08:31
BluewolfObrienDave: Sure thing.08:31
amincdBut in my Update Manager settings, the setting is 'Notify me of a new Ubuntu version: For long-term support versions". Shouldn't it therefore be notifying me of 14.04?08:33
EriC^^yeah08:34
fidel_amincd: yes08:34
OerHeksyes, i assumed you did not had that option set08:34
murchaEriC^^:  thanks worked!08:35
ObrienDaveBluewolf, beer rent  ;P  does that current USB boot on other machines?08:36
amincdhmm, so I'm puzzled as to why I've gotten no prompt to update to 14.0408:36
BluewolfObrienDave: Yes it does, on the two others I have.08:37
ObrienDaveok, you can see if you have a USBfloppy setting in BIOS. if not, i suggest burning ISO to DVD and installing from there08:38
Ben64amincd: you can probably run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo do-release-upgrade" to upgrade08:38
cfhowlettamincd, I believe you must have the 12.04.5 for the next LTS to be offered08:38
* ObrienDave has had MUCH better luck using DVD08:39
ObrienDaveBluewolf, or you can try using unetbootin or yumi to make USB08:40
OerHeksBluewolf, i need to set boot in 2 places, in boot priority and hdd priority08:41
ObrienDaveBluewolf, and there is that also ^^^08:42
EriC^^murcha: no problem08:42
BluewolfObrienDave: In the BIOS there is, USBHDD - Flash Drive or hard drive, USBCD - CD Drive, and USBFDD which I am assuming it Floppy drive?08:42
ObrienDaveUSBFDD is floppy drive.08:42
ObrienDaveUSBHDD flash should work08:43
BluewolfObrienDave: I can use unetbootin in the future, but the flash is working on other machines quite fine. So I have them in this order - USBHDD, USBCD, USBFDD, SATA CD, SATA HDD?08:44
BluewolfIts not working in that order.08:45
BluewolfOr should I remove USBFDD?08:45
BluewolfDisable?08:45
ObrienDavenope, once it sees USBHDD it wont seek to the next device08:45
OerHeksmaybe put it in a USB2 port, if you run it in USB3 mode08:46
ObrienDavepossibly08:46
OerHeksdid you ever boot usb from that machine before?08:46
ObrienDaveyour SATA HDD is last just so you can do things like boot from CD or DVD08:47
BluewolfOerHeks: Never, this is my first attempt. And yes I have been attempting to boot from USB3 ports, let me try on the USB2 as all the other machines are that.08:48
ObrienDaveif SATA HDD was first, it would NEVER see the CD or DVD08:48
BluewolfObrienDave: Yeah I set it like that in case I boot of a USB or CD08:48
ObrienDavecool08:48
OerHeksBluewolf, i assume there is window 8 on it?08:48
ObrienDaveah, i did not think of win808:49
BluewolfObrienDave: Yeah I got that a while back when I move onto USB. I have Windows 7 on it.08:49
BluewolfOerHeks: Windows 708:49
OerHeksnot sure windows 7 knows fastboot ..08:49
ObrienDaveif it came with Win8 it's probably a UEFI bios08:50
ObrienDaveyou will need to throw UEFI into legacy mode IIRC08:50
ObrienDave!uefi | Bluewolf08:51
ubottuBluewolf: 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/UEFI08:51
OerHeksand hdd priority, did you checked that already ?08:51
BluewolfObrienDave: It never came with Windows 7 this is the manual - http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201210/20121028104609083/Win8_Manual_eng.pdf08:53
BluewolfOerHeks: Yes I did, its at the bottom and USB2 does not work08:53
ObrienDavethen I would suggest the UEFI link in the above factoid08:54
grypratik: I walked away. Your message is AGAIN cut off at the same character; you have to split it manually.08:54
ObrienDavei'm an OLD BIOS guy, UEFI is too new for me. my wife won't let me touch her Win8 machine ;P08:55
BluewolfObrienDave: Hehehhe, Everyone trusts me with their machines, because I know more than they do even though I know so little :D08:59
BluewolfObrienDave: Okay so how do I tell what format my Windows was installed in between UEFI and BIOS?09:00
ObrienDavewhen i drove a big rig, i would spend most of my 34 hour breaks fixing other drivers computers. grrrrrrrr09:00
qosWhere can i get assistance for a failed launchpad build job?09:01
ObrienDaveBluewolf, i don't know, i only know UEFI has more settings lie "fastboot" and such09:01
ObrienDave*like09:01
ObrienDaveqos, launchpad, maybe?09:02
qosObrienDave, could you be more exact?09:02
BluewolfObrienDave: Okay well in the BIOS, Legacy USB support and UEFI boot are both disabled, does that change anything?09:03
ObrienDavesorry, no i can't09:03
ObrienDaveBluewolf, yes, i would think you want legacy USB enabled. but i'm only guessing09:03
lotuspsychjeqos: whats your issue?09:04
BluewolfObrienDave: It won't hurt to try right or will it, I'm rather wary of playing in the BIOS, specially with limited knowledge?09:05
qoslotuspsychje, The job cannot fetch the index base URL (https://pypi.python.org/simple/) of pypi and therefore it cannot install its dependencies.09:06
lotuspsychjeqos: did you add a ppa?09:06
ObrienDaveBluewolf, i understand. but i don't think changing that will cause irreparable damage. you can change it back if need be.09:07
ObrienDaveBluewolf, the trick is to change only ONE setting at a time so you know how to fix it if need be :)09:07
qoslotuspsychje, Nope, just main and universe packages. https://launchpadlibrarian.net/212828448/buildlog_ubuntu-trusty-i386.pulseaudio-dlna_0.4.0_BUILDING.txt.gz09:07

lotuspsychje!uefi | Bluewolf alot of usefull info here09:12
ubottuBluewolf alot of usefull info here: 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/UEFI09:12

Bluewolflotuspsychje: Okay, Pro's and Con's point of view by leaving it enabled or disabled?09:20
lotuspsychjeBluewolf: leaving it enabled, if someone puts a bootable Os usb in your system, he will be able to install it09:20
EriC^^or access your files09:21

Guest38703Hello people10:40
pratikgry: my requirement is that I dont want to kill the other children...they are running fine and doing their job...since I am using LDAP, the script is smart enough to bring  the failed instance up again...10:43
grypratik: then you're starting them wrongly. You need to schedule them to run separately, not as children.10:43
gryAnd I forget the term for that.10:43
gryHow are you starting them right now?10:43
pratikthey are not the children as I am not forking them10:44
pratikI am starting them as system "a.pl &";10:44
gryOK.10:44
gryThe man page says:10:45
gry     The session terminates when the command or shell on the remote machine10:45
gry     exits and all X11 and TCP connections have been closed.10:45
grySo let's say you try to run that script in a command line. Does it open a next command prompt or does it hang? This way we learn whether it exits or not.10:46
pratikgry: yes, but there is still some session open when the main script dies10:46
pratikdebug3: channel 0: status: The following connections are open:   #0 client-session (t4 r0 i3/0 o3/0 fd -1/-1 cfd -1)10:46
pratikgry: it shows the prompt10:47
grySo there is a remaining TCP or X11 connection open, but you weren't using X11, so it's a remaining TCP connection.10:47
pratikgry: rightly so10:47
gryLooking at your script again, can you tell where it (or a fork) opens a TCP connection through the SSH session and leaves it open?10:48
gryIf a fork opens a TCP connection through our SSH session, it's of concern to our SSH session even if the main process exits.10:49
pratikmy script does not open the TCP session...I think that is something which happens at the ssh level10:49
gryAh.10:49
gryOkay, I can say I definitely am interested in knowing what it was (please ping me with solution after you find it), but I'm about to head out for a little bit.10:49
pratikgry: Ah, alrighty! Can you ping any other experts out here who can help me in this regard?10:50

barqWhat are the risks of still using 13.10?11:30
cfhowlettbarq, all the bad things you can think of, especially as there are no security updates offered11:30
OerHeksbarq, tons of security issues .. no heartbleed, and other ssl patches.11:30
bazhangbarq, no support whatsoever, security no updates ever11:30
cfhowlettbarq, and "no support" means  NO support.  Don't come in here crying.11:31

OerHeksbarq, close it now, so we don't have to answer.11:32
cfhowlettbarg  if you have ANY online connection, you're at risk.  Why don't you upgrade to a supported OS?11:32
bazhangbarq, nothing will mitigate the no support part ever11:32
OerHeksyou are vulnerable now anyway ..11:32
cfhowlettbarq, actually, don't bother.  the only advice you'll see is "Upgrade.  Now."  and no need to keep asking because - say it with me - "13.10 is no longer supported."11:33
barqI am not using 13.10, but some colleagues are and I am having a hard time persuading them/the boss that an upgrade is mandatory.11:33
grypratik: I'll test that in a moment.11:33
Yando[]_hello11:33
cfhowlettbarq, the next OS is 14.04 which is LTS.  If your users are too - thick - to recognize the value of using a supported OS, I'd have to say, they'll learn.11:34

StratFriends: I have a directory containing images, let's call this directory "dirX". I need the images of this directory to be available in the applicatio nfor selecting background wallpapers. The background wallpapers is located at /usr/share/backgrounds/. However, I want to seperate my own wallpapers (as stored in dirX) from the default wallpapers (as provided in /usr/share/backgrounds/). How can I do this?13:11
EriC^^Strat: put them in ~/home/../Pictures/Wallpapers13:11

qwerkusHello, since the last auto-update on 15.10, gedit stopped working alltogether. The app won't start anymore; no errors dumped in the console. I tried reinstalling and deleting .conf/gedit - nothing seems to help. Is this a know bug ? Is there a workaround ?13:25

StratEriC^^, I want to have my custom wallpapers be accessible from the /usr/share/wallpapers/, without having to manually add them to that directory. Instead, I want a proxy directory in my ~/home folder where I can manage my downloaded, custom wallpapers.

mylordi'm using DigitalOcean, so I guess they use Server installs13:56
tewardmylord: yes, they do.13:57
tewardmylord: A prime example is at work here for me - the sysadmin prefers CentOS 6 systems, I prefer Debian/Ubuntu, and depending on who's setting up the *nix server VMs, unless a project calls for a specific OS we use whichever is most comfortable for use13:57

lotuspsychjegarethdaine: ubuntu can be installed pretty quickly, ask the #ubuntu-server guys maybe14:55
garethdaineThanks lotuspsychje: I’ve asked our dedicated host to wipe the server and install only a fresh copy of Ubuntu 14.04 x64 and they are saying it’s 4 hours chargable work14:56
nils_garethdaine: they're trying to screw you.14:56
lotuspsychjegarethdaine: too long for sure,14:56
tgm4883yea14:56
tgm4883it should take like 30 minutes tops14:57
ki7mtgarethdaine, I'd find a new host, thats extortion.14:57
tgm4883including post install setup so you can access it14:57
garethdaineI knew that for ceratin, especially when you can spin up a VPS server in seconds.14:57
nils_I have an ansible task that performs the same in 10-15 minutes, most of which is spent waiting for downloads/reboots etc.14:57

garethdaineThe Ubunutu server folks are saying it could very well take 4 hours to install15:02
garethdainethey probably have to do things at the datacenter to make the revisions - network reconfiguration, configuration for networking, etc.15:02
garethdainedepending on what all they ahve to do over at the datacenter it could very well be 4 hours of work for them15:02
garethdaineThat was the response15:02
garethdaineSeems odd to me15:02
nils_well yeah15:02
nils_You could always take longer.15:03
tgm4883garethdaine: that isn't entirely what they said15:03
sloantotheboneUgh I have multiple "system problem program detected" dialogs15:04
lotuspsychjesloantothebone: what does the details say?15:04
sloantotheboneNo details "do you want to report the problem?"15:05
OerHekspress yes, then you will get the detail option15:05
tgm4883sloantothebone: which is where you get the details ;)15:05
ki7mtgarethdaine, I suppose it all depends on when the clock starts as to how long it takes, ticket submission to finished notification ( which included queue time etc) could take 4 hours, but I'd find it odd that it takes 4 hours for the imaging portion.15:06
sloantotheboneWhen I click report it asks for my password and thats it15:06
tgm4883ki7mt: queue time wouldn't be billable15:06
sloantotheboneYou've never seen this error before?? I hope it isnt a virus15:06
ki7mttgm4883, I would not think so, no.15:07
sloantotheboneDo you need a screenshot?15:07
garethdainetgm4883: What you mean, that’s what I copied directly from chat15:07
lotuspsychjesloantothebone: no, we need more details15:07
sloantotheboneWhen I press cancel the dialog goes away, no password15:07
tgm4883<garethdaine> The Ubunutu server folks are saying it could very well take 4 hours to install15:07
sloantotheboneThe other button says exactly "Report problem..."15:08
lotuspsychjesloantothebone: find some errors in syslog or dmesg15:08
sloantotheboneHow do I do that?15:08
tgm4883garethdaine: that isn't what they said at all. They said that there were other possible things they would need to do outside of the install that could be billable. "network reconfiguration, configuration for networking, etc."15:08
Picisloantothebone: if a process crashes and generates a file into /var/crash, then the crash handler will run and that is what is produces that dialog.15:09
lotuspsychjesloantothebone: dmesg in terminal, or manual browse with the log viewer icon (from dash)15:09
garethdainetgm4883: Yeah, and that’s what the response was: depending on what all they ahve to do over at the datacenter ‘it could very well be 4 hours’ of work for them15:09
tgm4883garethdaine: 4 hours to install vs 4 hours to install, test and configure15:10
sloantotheboneOk I just found system log in the dash (im using ubuntu gnome btw)15:10
tgm4883garethdaine: those are 2 different things15:10
garethdaineNot suggesting they are mate15:10
garethdaineare the same that is15:10
tgm4883garethdaine: if you say so15:10
garethdaineSo, installing a fresh server with network config etc could take 4 hours?15:11
garethdainetgm4883: You seem to be being a bit funny for some reason fella, I’m only asking a question and quoting what the server folks said, not disputing any of it just clarifying and asking questions15:12
Holzbeinhi15:12
OerHeksthat 'etc' is a wide area ..15:12
nils_garethdaine: just out of curiosity, how much do they charge if you order a new server?15:12
garethdaineAs in this request, or just signing up as a new customer?15:12
tgm4883garethdaine: Ok champ. Their point was that they could conceivably see a billable 4 hours, assuming that they had to install the OS, reconfigure networking (I'm assuming outside of the server), test the OS against unsupported hardware, diagnose faultly hardware, and possibly upgrade drivers and such15:13
nils_as a new customer.15:13
tgm4883Honestly, I still think 4 hours is a bit much, but I'd just go with a VPS over dedicated server anyway15:13
ki7mtgarethdaine, The bottom line is, it doesn't' matter, if thats what they say the cost is, your stuck with their quote, but you should work with the Host folks to get the quote to a reasonable price before hand.15:13
garethdainetgm4883: I get what you and they are saying15:14
nils_tgm4883: I'm the opposite in that regard, the amount of trouble I had with virtualised stuff...15:14
tgm4883garethdaine: also, is the quote for 4 hours, or a maximum of 4 hours?15:14
tgm4883nils_: doing what?15:14
OerHeks"you are back online in 4 hrs"15:14
tgm4883OerHeks: is that what he said? Because he said it was 4 billable hours15:15
garethdaineki7mt: We’re locked in to a contract on the server and we’ve been with them for a while, plus it’s a manged service. It just seems excessive to me. tgm4883: It’s a quote for 4 hours work, whether it takes them 20 minutes or 4 hours.15:15
Holzbeini have a question:15:15
garethdainenils_: Not entirely sure, can’t remember but usually around £360 to £44015:15
Holzbeinweren't there siri-like features integrated in tomboy?15:15
garethdaineIf I remember correctly15:15
nils_tgm4883: it's most often related to performance, especially with things like elasticsearch or redis.15:16
ki7mtgarethdaine, Well, that's things which should be looked at before signing the contract, but, we dont' always think about those things first time around, but when it's up for re-newal, then you have some leverage :-)15:17
tgm4883garethdaine: what is the OS on it now?15:18
garethdaineIt currently has cPanel on it and I believe it’s CentOS, so maybe that’s why. It’s from a previous developer in our company who for some reason wanted bloody cPanel on the server.15:20
garethdaineI’ll double check the OS because I’ve been using Digital Ocean15:20

garethdaineHaven’t used this server other than for backups15:20
garethdaineBut DO is becoming slow, and upgrading the droplet increases response times, which is weird, so since we have a dedicated server we’re paying for I thought it good to clean it up, install Ubuntu and then provision the server myself15:21
tgm4883garethdaine: out of curiosity, how much is 4 billable hours?15:21
garethdaine£36015:22
garethdaine£75 an hour + VAT15:22

Neo9_reisio: what type of effect?15:37
tgm4883Neo9_: why are you trying to delete files in /tmp15:37
reisioNeo9_: lots, it's data your OS has been or is using15:39
reisiohard to do much without temporary data15:39
reisiothe _long term_ ramifications of deleting /tmp/ are very few15:40
reisiobecause they're in /tmp/, they're not essential15:40

whallzrypervenche: i know that, but you may 'know how to administrate a server' and still prefer (or need) to use GUI16:40
tgm4883FAalbers: see if the devs of openocd have a recommended solution for putting it on trusty, see if there is a ppa available, build from source16:40

xtorqsub is it usually done through a direct edit of the sudoers file or is the preferred methid through another shell utility20:02
qsubxtor you can either alter the current one if you wish. if you create a new user you have to create a entry for him in sudoers20:02

ubottuUbuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide - Support in #ubuntu-server20:25
tanukiThanks.20:25
wileeetanuki, run a sudo update-grub if you modify grub generally you would run this, some context would help.20:26
tanukiwileee: I'm pretty sure I didn't modify grub, but I'll try that.20:26
wileeetanuki, Check your fstab and /etc/default/grub is the general modify for a number of options20:27
tanukiTo make life weirder: When I select "reboot" in memtest86+, it boots to Trusty.20:28
wileeetanuki, Did not ask but this is an install, not a live?20:30
rfmon_Can somebody help me expand sda1? https://i.imgur.com/Ey1vD59.png20:30
tanukiwileee: As far as I'm aware.20:30
k1l_rfmon_: first: boot up a live system20:31
tanukiIt might still be booting from the ISO, though I thought I disconnected it20:31
rfmon_It is a live system :) k1l_20:31
k1l_rfmon_: then, move or delete sda2, then you can resize sda1 to fill the space up to sda2 again20:32
rfmon_I wonder if I have to allocate it  first?20:32
IPhotonhello, I am recording my voice and I hear a lot of static on the background. Nothing that I will be able to do willl help. I have tried to remove it with Audacity, but still it's terrible. I think it has to do with the fact that I don't have realtek?20:33
k1l_rfmon_: what is inside sda2? could be that its mounted or used (swap) so its blocked to unmount and be moved. so unmount that partitions first20:33
IPhotonI know that on Windows on this same computer, it worked really well with my microphone20:33
rfmon_k1l_, it should you be swap. It seems that I can't unmount it.20:34
TJ-IPhoton: maybe the microphone has a boost mode which need disabling20:34
rfmon_k1l_: It just says that /dev/sda2 isn't mounted.20:35
mike_papaHello. I'm trying to set up my nvidia gtx275 and intel GPU for multi monitor use. Unfortunately when in BIOS I set iGPU Multimonitor option to Enable, I get only black screen. I can use nvidia only to drive both monitors, but as it is rather old one, it does not support HDMI audio. I'd like to get it from intel's GPU (I don't need much power for playing movies). Any ideas? I tried property drivers and novueau.20:35
k1l_rfmon_: right click, then select unmount should work.20:35
erkan^doesn´t skype support 64-bits for Ubunto?20:35

mike_papaMotherboard is Asus Z87/DUAL of that matters.20:36
Joelis there a way to see what user accounts a .deb will create before installing it?20:36
rfmon_k1l_: Everything besides "Manage Flags" and "Information" is greyed out. Could it be because it's a virtual machine (VMWare)? I just mounted the ISO :)20:36
bekksJoel: You can extract it, and investigate the scripts shipped.20:37
rfmon_k1l_: In daemon tools that is.20:37
TJ-IPhoton: I'd have suggested interference picked up by wires but you say Windows has no problem; so the next obvious issue is the boost setting, which will usually cause distortion but not necessarily 'static' as in white noise20:37
Joelbekks, hrm, k, was hoping there was some dpkg commands to show scripts run20:37
k1l_rfmon_: wait what? what sort of setup is this? i thought that was a regular ubuntu hardware install and a live-cd/usb20:38
bekksJoel: Nope.20:38
k1l_rfmon_: you cant move partitions while the same system is running.20:39
TJ-Joel: You can inspect the postinst scripts of the deb with "dpkg-deb --control <archive.deb>" (see "man dpkg-deb")20:40
JoelTJ-, thanks20:40
rfmon_k1l_: I have a virtual machine (Ubuntu), the storage was supposed to be dynamic - but it hit it's max size of 40 GB, so I had to expand it in VMWare. "The disk was successfully expanded. You must repartition the disk and expand the file systems from within the guest operating system."20:40
bekksTJ-: Oh, thank you. Things I learned. :)20:40
rfmon_k1l_: So I'm trying to repartition it and expand it. But I can't really do that :D20:41
OnkelTemTJ-: found the reason of that update-available thingy. I have date set to 2001 year on my laptop to where I was connecting :)20:43
TJ-rfmon_: switch the storage to LVM, then you can make multiple separate physical partitions into Physical Volumes (PV), add the PVs to a Volume Group (VG), and then allocate Logical Volumes (LVs) for the required files-ystems  - all without needing to disturb existing partioning20:44
OnkelTemfor this reason updates-available cached file had been creating with incorrect date20:44
rfmon_That sounds like a pretty neat idea TJ-, I'll give it a shot.20:44
TJ-OnkelTem: Thanks for that info - that's an unexpected 'buggette' :)20:44
xMopxShell /tmp should always be root:root 777, right?20:48
bekksIt should be 1777, ideally.20:48
JoelTJ-, interestingly enough it wouldn't give me the scripts, I ahd to extract to egt them :\20:50
XenophonFhey all - i'm looking for jetty9 packages suitable for use with 14.0420:54
TJ-Joel: that's what --control option does... by default to a directory called DEBIAN/ (or you can give it one) - then you'll have "DEBIAN/{pre,post}inst" along with the conffiles, control, md5sums and other scripts20:54

CosmicNoiserdzzl, okay, so sounds like you just have to update grub.22:34
TechMongercan anyone recomend a video editing program?22:35
CosmicNoiseTechMonger, Blender?22:35
rdzzldaftykins: see that's where it gets difficult to me. Ihavenoideawhatimdoing22:35
CosmicNoiseTechMonger, not really, my bad.22:35
TechMongergimp do vids?22:36
rdzzlCosmicNoise: I tried that ( think) by doing sudo update-grub in terminal22:36
reisiordzzl: you could try http://dpaste.com/0HZEB96.txt22:36
daftykinsrdzzl: is it really even worth resolving this when win10 is out soon? :P22:36
reisiohahah22:36
rdzzlreisio: what do I do with that?22:36
rdzzldaftykins: haven't even watched a trailer of it. Not having high hopes for new win versions anyway. :p22:37
reisiordzzl: put it into grub.cfg, reboot, try it out22:37
rdzzlreisio: anywhere in the .cfg ?22:37
CosmicNoiseTechMonger, nah. Maybe I wasn't totally wrong with Blender. Seems to get some great reviews for video editing.22:37
daftykinslol trailer.22:37
CosmicNoiseTechMonger, so that would be my recommendation.22:37
daftykinsit's not a film!22:37
reisiordzzl: anywhere between a } and menuentry, yeah22:37
daftykinsi've been using the preview, it's good22:38
reisiodaftykins: too late, I've already decided that was a joke about win10 being awful22:38
CosmicNoiserdzzl, also try this "sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg" in command line.22:38

rdzzldamn do I have 2x linux installed O.o22:39
rdzzlgah can someone hit me with a stick22:39
CosmicNoiserdzzl, not likely. The grub sometimes has double entries... or perhaps one is recovery mode.22:40
rdzzlreisio: not finding ª} anywhere22:40
reisiordzzl: grub.cfg is made up of entries that begin with 'menuentry' and end with '}'22:41
reisioyou can add a new entry anywhere not within an extant one22:41
rdzzlreisio: failed to save document22:42
rdzzlgah22:42
CosmicNoiserdzzl, you'll have to be root to edit the document.22:42

rdzzlgedit command not found22:43
CosmicNoiseWhat distro are you on?22:43

bekksYou'll likely mess up permissions.22:43
reisiomousepad?22:43
CosmicNoiseAh.22:43
CosmicNoiseYes, it'll be mousepad.22:44
CosmicNoiserdzzl, gedit is better than mousepad.22:44
reisiomousepad will suffice22:44
rdzzlim installing gedit (I believe - if sudo apt-get install installs it)22:44
CosmicNoiserdzzl, it will.22:44
ntranyou can just 'gksudo mousepad grub.cfg'22:44
rdzzlso uhm gedit opens grub.cfg but file is empty22:45
ntranare you in the correct dir22:45
CosmicNoiserdzzl, sudo gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg22:45
CosmicNoiserdzzl, when i said "sudo gedit grub.cfg", I was assuming you had already gone to the /boot/grub directory.22:46
rdzzlah that makes sense22:46
rdzzlim looking for a file on my desktop that isnt on my desktop22:46
CosmicNoiserdzzl, yep, so it just creates it for you.22:46
reisionot gonna find it there, then22:46
rdzzlyea got it now22:47
rdzzlI guess I'll try a reboot22:47
rdzzlcheers for the help thus far!22:47
CosmicNoiserdzzl, good luck.22:47
daftykinsfull paths are indeed wise22:48
rdzzl_yeah, no. That didn't do it. I got an error as it booted up though22:49

rdzzl_problemtype: crash22:50
rdzzl_CosmicNoise: yeah22:50
bekksOerHeks: Dont use sudo on graphical applications ;)22:50
CosmicNoisebekks, been doing it for years.22:51
rdzzl_gnome-keyring-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in __GI_getenv()   <--22:51
bekksCosmicNoise: Doesnt mean it is safe.22:51
CosmicNoisebekks, no, you're right.22:52
CosmicNoisebekks, but, for beginners... I'm sure it's easiest to have them open a GIU.22:52
bekksIt may break things.22:52
CosmicNoisebekks, text editing in command line is quite daunting.22:52
bekksUse gksudo instead.22:52
genii!gksudo22:52
ubottuIf you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)22:52
daftykinsCosmicNoise: bad advice is bad advice, please don't suggest it again :)22:52
CosmicNoisedaftykins, affirmative.22:53
geniiAlthough I think the factoid is out of date now and should be gksu instead22:53
reisiordzzl_: gnome keyring would be long after grub22:53
daftykinsgenii: yeah i think you're right, i also remember it was meant to be phased out entirely but i don't know for what version22:53
rdzzl_so what's next? would a clean reinstall of kubuntu (or another flavor) help?22:54
rdzzl_ xubuntu*22:54
OerHeksi thought one needs to edit /etc/default/grub and run update-grub afterwards22:54
reisiordzzl_: doubt it22:54
reisioOerHeks: no need for a test22:55
CosmicNoiserdzzl_, what made you choose xubuntu?22:55
CosmicNoiserdzzl_, if you're just starting out in Linux, the usual suggestion is to stick with "straight" ubuntu.22:55
rdzzl_CosmicNoise: it said xubuntu is lightweight, fast and has access to decent packages22:55
lotuspsychjedoes that mean one can sudo vi grub.cfg safely?22:55
reisioyour choice of Xubuntu likely has nothing to do with this issue22:55
reisiolotuspsychje: yes, you just can't rely on it being left alone by the system during updates22:56
rdzzl_CosmicNoise: I've used various versions through the years but never for long as I've always had issues that I was unable to solve22:56
lotuspsychjereisio: because of the usn security flaws?22:56
rdzzl_CosmicNoise: I don't mind the learning curve now either tbh, it's just a bit meh to have problems with the tires after just having got the car keys22:56
reisiolotuspsychje: pardon?22:56
lotuspsychje!usn | reisio22:57
ubottureisio: Please see http://www.ubuntu.com/usn for information about Ubuntu security updates.22:57
reisiolotuspsychje: what about it?22:57
CosmicNoiserdzzl_, okay. Fair enough! No reason to do a clean install... your solution is just around the corner.22:57
lotuspsychjereisio: you say un-updated systems arent safe, and im wondering because of those security flaws22:58
lawltoadHey all, I need advice on an embaressing problem. I've been programming for about 12 years but I've never managed to learn how to touch type. any avice?22:58
=== wook is now known as Guest63400
CosmicNoiserdzzl_, now, it could be related to UEFI problems. Do you know if you installed Windows in Legacy Mode or UEFI mode?22:58
daftykinslawltoad: this is OS support, so nope22:58
rdzzl_CosmicNoise: from hours of googling, it seemed to point towards UEFI problems22:58
CosmicNoiserdzzl_, depending on your machine, you can sometimes turn this off in your BIOS settings.22:58
CosmicNoiseSwitch to legacy mode if possible.22:58
reisiolotuspsychje: I didn't say anything about safeness..22:58
rdzzl_CosmicNoise: yeah but I can't access my bios in any way so I can't switch it :\22:58
reisioyou got the right guy?22:58
daftykinslawltoad: get yourself a blank "das keyboard", that'll force you not to look :)22:58
reisiolawltoad: learn22:59
daftykinsrdzzl_: there must be a way.22:59
CosmicNoiserdzzl_, there must be some access to your bios. Usuallyp ressing F2, or F12 or some other function key during bootup, depending on your motherboard.22:59
lawltoadthanks! sorry about the noise22:59
rdzzl_daftykins: I tried some weird lines into terminal that I can't remember, I tried a hard reset (remove battery + charger), F2 spam, F8spam, del-spam, nothing takes me there22:59
lotuspsychjereisio: nvm, i was just thinking with all recent exploits, even if one uses gksudo that doesnt mean he's safe right22:59
ljetiboHey guys, I have a laptop here that can't display google through firefox but can ping it. I tried after googling http://paste.ubuntu.com/11950960/ but I don't know what any of that means23:00

CosmicNoiserdzzl_, do you know what motherboard it is?23:00
reisiolawltoad: http://www.gnu.org/software/gtypist/ http://klavaro.sourceforge.net/ http://tux4kids.alioth.debian.org/tuxtype/23:00

reisiolotuspsychje: sudo is about limiting root access, it's not some magic security thing23:00
rdzzl_it's a toshiba satellite c55-a-1mw (or so the sticker says)23:00
reisiolotuspsychje: has almost nothing to do with exploits23:01
reisioalthough on Ubuntu sudo is used... not the way it was meant to be, so :p23:01
lotuspsychjereisio: but root access can be intruded by other ways no?23:01
=== N3X15_ is now known as N3X15
reisiolotuspsychje: other than?23:01

rdzzl_CosmicNoise: I'll give it another try23:02
reisiolotuspsychje: you can achieve root via other paths, though, sure23:02
rdzzl_so in bios I'll change to legacy mode and = gg ?23:02
lotuspsychjereisio: ok tnx23:02
CosmicNoiseLegacy mode, yes, somewhere in the UEFI settings.23:02
rdzzl_i'll be back in a few then!23:02
rdzzlllllhaha this is quite the slow way to operate, gotta reboot to pop back in for questions. good news: got into bios. Possible good news: can choose between UEFI and CSM mode. Whuttodo?23:06
rdzzlllllit's currently CSM but didn't wanna change it in case that means I can't boot linux afterwards. If that's a risk, i gotta make a bootable usb first23:07
CosmicNoiseWell, it's always worth a try, and it doesn't take long to make a bootable usb.23:08
CosmicNoiseSwitch to UEFI mode. UEFI has been around a while now, so ubuntu should be able to handle it quite well by now.23:08
CosmicNoiseNot the case a few years ago.23:08
rdzzlllllalright ill give it another go!23:09
=== corey84__ is now known as Corey84
reisiommm, well, it's not going to handle it well if his grub.cfg is all setup for not using it :P23:10

pants11test23:10
reisiofail23:11
CosmicNoiseThere's no risk involved, and he can use the live disk to repair/update grub after the change.23:11
reisiohe just said he doesn't have one :p23:11
CosmicNoiseHe said if he needed one he would make one... I suggested he do that.23:12
CosmicNoiseHopefully he seen the message.23:12
reisio:p23:12
rrrdzzlwell guess what. changing it put me straight into win 8.1. No grub, no nothing.23:12
CosmicNoiserrrdzzl, did you make that live disc?23:12
rrrdzzlI can. Should I go for something else than xubuntu?23:13
rrrdzzlgot a decent dl speed here23:13
reisiorrrdzzl: unlikely to matter23:13
rrrdzzlsuggestions? I'll do university work, attempt to become less of a noob at python. Those two things are my only criterias for it. It'd be nice if it works too23:13
CosmicNoiseI would switch to UEFI, boot to the live disc, and run a grub repair.23:13
reisiocriteria*23:13
CosmicNoiseFrom there.23:13
reisioXubuntu is fine23:14
CosmicNoiseIt will then set your grub file up to match the changing BIOS settings.s23:14
rrrdzzlxubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64 tis the one I got23:14
rrrdzzliirc I had to disable safe boot and some stuff to be able to install xubuntu23:14
CosmicNoiseAs far as distros go, xubuntu is fantastic. No issue as far as you criteria are concerned.23:15
rrrdzzlshould I try that wubi thing?23:16
xanguarrrdzzl: no23:16
xangua!wubi23:16
ubottuWubi was a way to install Ubuntu from within Windows, but it is no longer supported in recent versions of Ubuntu and was never well maintained even for Ubuntu 12.04. Do not use Wubi. See !install for other options for installing Ubuntu.23:16
rrrdzzlwell I got both the ubuntu and the xubuntu iso23:17
CosmicNoiserrrdzzl, so, just to confirm. You installed Win 8. You then booted a live disc of xubuntu and installed from there, and selected the option to install alongside windows?23:17
rrrdzzlCosmicNoise: affirmative. I've had win 8.1 for months already though before deciding to install xubuntu23:17
CosmicNoiseAnd when you start up, you boot straight into ubuntu, with no "grub" list showing up at any point? Or the grub list shows up, but no Windows listed?23:17
rrrdzzlno23:18
CosmicNoiseNo? To which one?23:18
CosmicNoiseNo grub list, or no windows on the grub list?23:18
rrrdzzlwhen I had CSM instead of UEFI, it showed grub (but not windows in it), and let me boot linux. When I changed it back to UEFI it popped right into windows without grub showing up23:19

rrrdzzldaftykins: how do I avoid that then?23:19
EriC^^pants11: it might be cause you need to register, ^23:20
daftykinsi'd nuke the disk from orbit and start again23:20
rrrdzzlCosmicNoise: so reboot; enter bios; set to CSM, reboot, load xubuntu, mount windows, write command and paste output? O.o23:20
daftykinsbut truthfully windows 8.1 is rubbish and will become redundant in a few days23:20
SuperFAMhi, can i get some help?23:20
daftykinsSuperFAM: not until you ask23:20
CosmicNoiserrrdzzl, Yep. Make sure it's installed first. Might not be on xubuntu, not sure.23:21
EriC^^rrrdzzl: reinstall ubuntu in uefi mode23:21
rrrdzzlis that a different .iso then or do I make a different choice while installing?23:21
EriC^^it depends on how the usb is booted, after you boot run ls -l /sys/firmware/efi to see if it loaded in uefi23:22
EriC^^if it exists then it did23:22
CosmicNoiserrrdzzl, no, just set the bios to UEFI and reinstall.23:22
rrrdzzlEriC^^: it gave me an error trying to run repair-boot stating I was in legacy mode23:22
rrrdzzlCosmicNoise: yeah thats what I tried to tell ya earlier; it doesn't let me boot from usb in UEFI (or at least didnt when I installed the first time around)23:22
EriC^^rrrdzzl: it would be easier to fresh install if you don't have anything on it yet23:22
daftykins!efi | rrrdzzl learn the difference here23:22
ubotturrrdzzl learn the difference here: 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/UEFI23:22
rrrdzzloh okay23:23
rrrdzzlso I'll try a fresh install (if my laptop will allow booting from the usb this time around)23:24
rrrdzzlshould i diskpart my linux partition first perhaps?23:24
EriC^^not really23:25
EriC^^all you need is to boot in uefi mode23:25
rrrdzzlso installing I'll go "install alongside x"23:25
SuperFAMdaftykins: how do i disable the prompt where when i visit a page it asks if i want to install an ubuntu app?23:26
EriC^^well, don't choose to reinstall ubuntu, cause it'll wipe the whole drive23:26
EriC^^rrrdzzl: ^23:26
EriC^^rrrdzzl: i'd manually partition23:26
rrrdzzlEriC^^: I'll need it in a recipe of sorts to make sure I don't screw up23:26
rrrdzzlEriC^^: That I can do right now, from windows, while still able to chat: right?23:27
rrrdzzlI see the partition in diskmngr23:28
EriC^^no, it's in the installer23:28
EriC^^you can remove them from windows if you want23:28
EriC^^i think there's a bios-boot partition that's 1mb or so, and a ext4 one and a swap one23:28
EriC^^delete those, and in ubuntu's installer choose Something else when it asks about installing23:29
EriC^^and make 1 partition for "/" (ext4 mountpoint "/") and a swap partition, and click on the EFI partition that windows uses, and select it as the efi partition, then install23:30
rrrdzzlhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/343268/how-to-use-manual-partitioning-during-installation/343370#343370 good? EriC^^23:31
EriC^^no23:32
EriC^^O.o23:32
rrrdzzl[01:30] <EriC^^> and make 1 partition for "/" (ext4 mountpoint "/") and a swap partition, and click on the EFI partition that windows uses, and select it as the efi partition, then install <-- dont wanna mess that one up. the ext4 blabla part of it has me confused23:33
EriC^^you should have unallocated space, when you click on it and click on the "+" you select the size of the partition, and the type of the filesystem, which is ext4, and the mountpoint "/" (your main root)23:34
EriC^^so if you have 30gb unallocated space, and you want 6gb swap, create a 24gb "/" and then click on "+" again and create a partition with the type swap with the rest23:35
EriC^^and you should have an efi partition that's about 300-500mb, fat32 filesystem that windows uses, double click on it and select it as the efi partition type23:36
EriC^^so ubuntu knows to use that for it's bootloader23:36
