| surgy3 | i tried to ask in kubuntu but no one is there or no one knows how to help | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| surgy3 | i just installed kubuntu and am getting a black screen with blinking cursor. i think it is cuased by grub being installed in the wrong spot. im currently talkin to you via the kubuntu live cd. i need grub reinstalled onto the ssd that kubuntu is installed on. i have lts 14.04 kubuntu installed. please help me | 00:01 |
| Jordan_U | !bootinfo | surgy3 | 00:02 |
| ubottu | surgy3: Boot info script is a useful script for diagnosing boot problems. Please run the script following the directions here: http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ and then !pastebin the RESULTS.txt for us to use to help diagnose your problem. | 00:02 |
| fabzor3 | surgy3, when you reinstall, unplug your other disks | 00:03 |
| fabzor3 | just in case it get installed to the wrong disks | 00:03 |
| squinty | surgy3: there is also the following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting | 00:03 |
| surgy3 | fabzor3: my other disks are internal thats rediculous | 00:03 |
| squinty | no it's not | 00:04 |
| squinty | quite common to reduce potential problems | 00:04 |
| Jordan_U | surgy3: You do not need to remove any drives. | 00:04 |
| jake_ | yo | 00:06 |
| jake_ | anyone here mining on 100mhs? | 00:06 |
| surgy3 | Jordan_U: here is the results http://www.pasteall.org/60245 | 00:07 |
| jake_ | no one? | 00:08 |
| surgy3 | how do i tell what /dev/sdc is ? | 00:09 |
| Jordan_U | surgy3: OK, are you currently booted from a Kubuntu 14.04 liveCD? | 00:09 |
| surgy3 | Jordan_U: yes | 00:09 |
| Jordan_U | surgy3: sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/ && sudo grub-install --target=i386-pc --boot-directory=/mnt/boot/ /dev/sdc | 00:10 |
| surgy3 | Jordan_U: installation finished no errors reported. so that was it? | 00:11 |
| Jordan_U | surgy3: Note that while that should get you booting you are not quite done fixing things yet! Once booted, run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure --frontend=text grub-pc". | 00:12 |
| surgy3 | thnx man | 00:13 |
| Jordan_U | surgy3: If you forget to do this second step, and select the appropriate devices (at least /dev/sdc, but you could also decide to install to all disks) for grub's boot sector, then booting might break again with a future update as grub-pc will run grub-install against the wrong device. | 00:13 |
| surgy3 | Jordan_U: ok i understand will run that command first thing on reboot thanks a million | 00:14 |
| Jordan_U | surgy3: You're welcome. | 00:14 |
| caliculk | What is the way (besides using apt-get) to check if a package is available in one of Ubuntu's repos? | 00:15 |
| Jordan_U | caliculk: packages.ubuntu.com | 00:15 |
| caliculk | I was trying to install 'minidlna' but when I try to use apt-get it doesn't show up as available. | 00:15 |
| caliculk | Thanks Jordan_U | 00:15 |
| Jordan_U | caliculk: You're welcome. | 00:15 |
| Bashing-om | caliculk: There is also terminal command ' apt-cache search minidlna ' Once the package name is identified ' apt-cache show <name) ' for additional info . | 00:19 |
| surgy | Jordan_U, fixed :) | 00:23 |
| nathan | hi | 00:24 |
| nathan | hello? | 00:25 |
| fowl | my audio is skipping all the time. on all applications. pulseaudio. how can I fix it??? | 00:35 |
| Gerowen | Is there any particular reason that several options in VLC (under 15.04) are grayed out? Like subtitle track, take snapshot, all sorts of things under all the menus except the "Media" menu | 00:35 |
| tsimonq2 | fowl: Did you try a reinstall? | 00:35 |
| tsimonq2 | Try a live CD | 00:35 |
| fowl | tsimonq2, lol.. no i didnt | 00:35 |
| Gerowen | fowl: 14.04 LTS? I had the same issue, upgrading to 15.04 seems to have fixed it for the most part. | 00:35 |
| fowl | i'm on 15.04 | 00:36 |
| bekks | I'm on 14.04 until 16.04.1 :) | 00:36 |
| bekks | At least. | 00:36 |
| tsimonq2 | fowl: Try a Live CD first, and if it doesn't work, you need drivers(or some other fix for your hardware), otherwise, do a reinstall if it REALLY bugs you | 00:36 |
| fowl | tsimonq2, sorry i find your reinstall suggestion to be somewhat hilarious | 00:37 |
| tsimonq2 | Pulseaudio I mean...not Ubuntu! | 00:37 |
| tsimonq2 | :P | 00:37 |
| fowl | how do i find out what drivers i need | 00:38 |

| Guy1524 | Hey guys so my laptop recently broke but the ssd in it is fine. I have a server and I tried booting from the ssd. There are countless errors. It is a lenovo thinkserver | 00:50 |
| bekks | Maybe its not that fine? | 00:51 |
| Guy1524 | I did nothing to the sdd | 00:51 |
| Guy1524 | it has always worked perfectly | 00:51 |
| Guy1524 | even when the fan was broken | 00:51 |
| bekks | Which doesnt mean it works perfectly now. | 00:51 |
| El22 | Hola a todos: Soy 22Jerán | 00:51 |
| Guy1524 | yes, it does | 00:51 |
| Guy1524 | I can go into recovery mode and go through it | 00:51 |
| Guy1524 | all files still there | 00:52 |
| Guy1524 | grub is still on there | 00:52 |

| erpo | Are you trying to repurpose the server as your permanent desktop? | 00:52 |
| Guy1524 | yes | 00:52 |
| Guy1524 | I put in a graphics card | 00:53 |
| Guy1524 | and more ram | 00:53 |
| Guy1524 | it has a radeon hd something, and 12 gb of ram, an intel xeon | 00:53 |
| erpo | What does it do when it crashes? | 00:53 |
| Guy1524 | well when i boot, the ubuntu splash screen shows up for a few seconds then a bunch of error text spits out | 00:54 |
| bekks | Guy1524: Which errors? | 00:54 |
| ki7rw | what's the story on using updater? it hangs. it turns out that the problem is some kind of changelog stuff that causes it to hang. same thing happens with synaptic. i have to use apt-get to get updates to install | 00:54 |
| Guy1524 | i can only see the end of the stack trace | 00:54 |

| bekks | Guy1524: Your X server crashed due to the wrong driver installed for your current GPU. | 01:03 |
| Guy1524 | oh | 01:03 |
| Guy1524 | should i go into root on recovery mode | 01:03 |
| Guy1524 | and install new drivers | 01:03 |
| bekks | Guy1524: Yes. | 01:03 |
| Guy1524 | ok, ill try | 01:04 |
| Guy1524 | what command do I type in to get new drivers I used to have intel HD now I have radeon hd, not sure of version | 01:07 |

| GeForce88 | where is the download link for 10.04 ? or am i being forced to pay for it now via the ubuntu website ? | 01:11 |
| GeForce88 | pardon, not 10.04, i mean 15.04 | 01:12 |
| JanC | it should be there | 01:12 |
| GeForce88 | even if i slide the sliders to the left, and it sayts use ubuntu for free, there is no link | 01:13 |
| GeForce88 | just the paypal link | 01:13 |
| georgeowell | Guy1524 I'd just recommend reinstalling to be honest. It'll save you a lot of hassle. | 01:15 |
| Guy1524 | ok | 01:15 |
| Guy1524 | I tried that | 01:16 |
| Guy1524 | still a million errors | 01:16 |
| GeForce88 | at least you can download it. :( | 01:16 |
| JanC | GeForce88: then just go to alternative downloads | 01:17 |
| JanC | all the images are on all the mirrors | 01:18 |
| GeForce88 | janc : i see that now. thanks | 01:18 |
| JanC | and maybe somebody should fix the "regular" downloads indeed | 01:18 |
| JanC | :P | 01:18 |
| GeForce88 | and maybe some one shouldnt try downloading stuff whilest drinking | 01:19 |
| JanC | GeForce88: the LTS download has a "Not now, take me to the download ›" link, but the non-LTS you wanted doesn't | 01:21 |

| larrydewey123 | it is a cell phone. Nokia Lumia 720 | 01:24 |
| erpo | Guy1524: Sorry. I've stayed away from AMD/ATI graphics cards under Linux so I can't offer any advice. | 01:24 |
| erpo | larrydewey123: That's a windows phone. I'll bet it's using mtp. What version of Ubuntu are you running? | 01:24 |
| larrydewey123 | 15.04 | 01:25 |
| JanC | Guy1524: it should work with the standard open source drivers | 01:25 |
| Guy1524 | do i have those | 01:25 |

| Guy1524 | x crashes | 01:25 |

| erpo | larrydewey123: Hang on. | 01:27 |
| Guy1524 | im in recovery mode | 01:27 |
| Guy1524 | if i log in it crashes | 01:27 |
| larrydewey123 | erpo: no problem. Thanks for the help. | 01:27 |
| Bashing-om | Guy1524: Not at all knowledgeable about a proper way to remove the Intel driver . | 01:28 |
| Guy1524 | well i guess I cant because whenever i do apt-get it returns segmentation fault | 01:28 |
| snadge | why does apt-cache show fglrx show this version: Version: 2:15.200-0ubuntu4.1 .. but the website for the package, shows ubuntu 4 (without the .1) | 01:28 |
| snadge | i guess what im trying to say is.. where is this mythical 4.1 package | 01:28 |
| Guy1524 | this is so buggy! | 01:28 |
| Guy1524 | the screen keeps turning off, everything is returning errors | 01:29 |
| Guy1524 | and freezing | 01:29 |
| erpo | larrydewey123: When you say it doesn't automount, how do you know? Where are you looking and expecting it to appear? | 01:29 |
| Bashing-om | Guy1524: Not buggy - wrong graphics driver - .. Maybe try and boot to terminal from the grub menu. Perhaps then the GUI graphics driver will not be loaded and you can get some work done ? | 01:30 |
| Guy1524 | I am talking about that | 01:30 |
| larrydewey123 | erpo: it doesn't create a mount point in /dev. It doesn't show up in nautilus, and it doesn't pop up. I don't know where else to look for it. | 01:30 |
| Guy1524 | I have not even once gotten to a gui | 01:30 |
| Guy1524 | even recovery mode root is constantly crashing | 01:31 |
| Guy1524 | and returning errors | 01:31 |
| Guy1524 | i cant do anything but browse the filesystem | 01:31 |

| Bashing-om | Guy1524: Presntly you have no means to access the GUI. Why even try ? Boot to terminal . | 01:31 |
| Guy1524 | I have! | 01:32 |
| Guy1524 | And sorry Ive bean trying to get something out of this machine all day | 01:32 |
| erpo | larrydewey123: MTP devices like your phone don't create /dev/sd* entries even when they're working properly. Given that, have you plugged the phone into the computer and looked through everything in the nautilus sidebar? | 01:32 |
| OerHeks | Guy1524 time to do a memtest86 test | 01:33 |
| Guy1524 | ok | 01:33 |
| Guy1524 | how do I launch it | 01:33 |
| Bashing-om | Guy1524: I am not referring to booting in recoverry mode, but booting from grub's boot menu, edit the boot parameters such that you boot direct to a terminal (TTY1) . | 01:33 |
| Guy1524 | oh | 01:34 |
| Guy1524 | how | 01:34 |

| Guy1524 | also booting from upstart restarts the computer for me | 01:46 |
| wileee | Guy1524, Cool, ignore my comments, I thought you were still working on that. Sorry about that. | 01:46 |
| erpo | larrydewey123: I would connect the phone to a Windows PC just to verify whether the issue is the phone or the computer's OS. The MTP protocol requires that the phone be working properly to transfer files. If it won't mount on the Windows PC, then try taking out the microSD card and plugging that into a reader. | 01:47 |
| Guy1524 | its fine wileee, i just gave up trying to install it fresh and thought it would be easier to use the old ssd, but I was 200% wrong | 01:47 |
| wileee | Guy1524, You mentioned you were UEFI but legacy this the goal with the HD, and was it UEFI or what before? | 01:47 |
| Guy1524 | maybe i should try arch, so I can find the root of the problem | 01:47 |
| Guy1524 | its on legacy | 01:47 |
| Guy1524 | but i could do uefi | 01:48 |
| Guy1524 | secure boot is off | 01:48 |
| OerHeks | so it is an install, transferring to a different machine, probably with different hardware, oh and uefi? | 01:48 |
| wileee | Guy1524, Thanks, just trying to get the context. It seems best on an install if possible to stay uefi by and large. | 01:48 |
| Guy1524 | k ill try booting with uefi but at this point i have no hope | 01:49 |
| wileee | Guy1524, Have you summed that erring usb or the iso you were using before? | 01:50 |
| Guy1524 | no bcuz i am using my bros computer and i dont want to install new software | 01:50 |
| Guy1524 | he uses windows | 01:50 |
| bazhang | no need to install anything | 01:50 |
| bazhang | just check the hash | 01:51 |
| wileee | Guy1524, That could be the issue, and bazhang is correct read the wiki if you can. | 01:51 |
| bazhang | being on windows is NOT an obstacle either | 01:51 |
| Guy1524 | it could be the issue | 01:51 |
| Guy1524 | with the usb | 01:51 |
| Guy1524 | but not the usb, it works fine | 01:51 |
| Guy1524 | *ssd | 01:52 |
| bazhang | check the hash Guy1524 | 01:52 |
| Guy1524 | I am trying to ssd right now | 01:52 |
| Guy1524 | that i am sure works | 01:52 |
| wileee | Guy1524, you can check both read carefully the wiki, http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 01:52 |
| Guy1524 | that involves installing software | 01:52 |

| bazhang | 30 secons or so Guest44536 | 01:53 |
| Guy1524 | that is software | 01:54 |
| bazhang | Guy1524, did you actually read the hashsum links give you | 01:54 |
| Guest44536 | thanks bazhang | 01:54 |
| Guy1524 | yes | 01:54 |
| daftykins | you can get standalone hash checking .exe's... do it | 01:55 |
| Guy1524 | I think I am going to give up, thanks for the help though | 01:55 |
| bazhang | Guy1524, then you would know that no software install of any kind is involved, just checking the hash with a simple command | 01:55 |
| Guy1524 | You need to install software to use that command | 01:55 |
| bazhang | Guy1524, thats not correct at all | 01:55 |
| Guy1524 | md5sum is not recognized... | 01:56 |
| daftykins | running an executable != installing | 01:56 |
| Guy1524 | for me it is | 01:56 |
| surgy | i need help setting up y graphics tablet i dont even know where to start. :: its a huion 580 graphics tablet. and it currently works but i need to be able to configure it. rotate it to left handed use and cange the buttons. it does not show up under input devices >> graphics tablets | 01:56 |
| Guy1524 | anyway ill just try arch, thanks though | 01:56 |
| daftykins | Guy1524: you're being ridiculous | 01:56 |
| Guy1524 | why | 01:56 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu-touch surgy | 01:56 |
| Ben64 | you need to check the md5sum on any iso | 01:56 |
| Guy1524 | how | 01:56 |
| Guy1524 | really | 01:57 |
| bazhang | enough time wasted | 01:57 |

| surgy | bazbing80, thats for tablets...... i need help with a graphics tablet..... i was informed by the people there that i was in the wrong place | 01:58 |
| bazhang | surgy, is it touchscreen | 01:58 |
| surgy | bazbing80, no it is a pen and stylus for doing digital art on a desktop... | 01:58 |
| bazhang | surgy, wacom? | 01:59 |
| Ben64 | like a wacom tablet i'm guessing | 01:59 |
| surgy | bazbing80, a pad and stylus* | 01:59 |
| surgy | bazbing80, similar but different brand | 01:59 |
| bazhang | surgy its not bazbing | 01:59 |
| fowl | my audio is skipping all the time. on all applications. pulseaudio. how can I fix it??? where is even the alsa or pulseaudio settings?! | 01:59 |
| surgy | oh oops lol stupid tab | 01:59 |
| bazhang | surgy apt-cache search wacom | 01:59 |
| bazhang | surgy that should work with the offbrand as well | 02:00 |
| surgy | but its a huion... | 02:00 |
| surgy | oh ok | 02:00 |
| bazhang | surgy huion is before the actual branding | 02:00 |
| surgy | bazhang, huion is the brand.. i thought.... it says huion right on the front and they have their own website | 02:01 |
| bazhang | surgy yes thats right, but they also sell to the majors such as wacom | 02:01 |
| bazhang | surgy, try the apt-cache search for that and see | 02:02 |

| bazhang | surgy thats a new issue then | 02:03 |
| surgy | bazbing80, i just tried to install one of the many wacom drivers using apt-get install and that popped up | 02:03 |
| daftykins | show the output in a paste, we can't see from here | 02:04 |
| bazhang | surgy still not bazbing | 02:04 |
| daftykins | lol | 02:04 |
| surgy | http://www.pasteall.org/60250 | 02:04 |
| surgy | lol sorry habit of typing a partial name and pressing tab | 02:05 |
| daftykins | you don't use 'sudo' with an apt-cache search, that was mistake #1 | 02:05 |
| surgy | ... | 02:06 |
| kostkon | surgy, that package comes preinstalled anyway | 02:06 |
| surgy | i feel like the wacom drivers wont help me. | 02:07 |
| daftykins | wouldn't have hurt to try | 02:07 |
| surgy | he just said it is preinstalled right? | 02:08 |
| daftykins | you could've installed some other way | 02:08 |
| daftykins | it would not be throwing errors if it were already on | 02:08 |
| daftykins | perhaps run a "sudo apt-get -f install" and pastebin it | 02:08 |
| surgy | well i dont understand the error. | 02:08 |
| bazhang | daftykins, he just did say he installed the numerous wacom packages | 02:09 |
| surgy | and you implied that if i pasted it you would help me find a solution | 02:09 |
| daftykins | right, and now i'm asking for more | 02:09 |
| bazhang | surgy, we dont know what all you have installed, you said many packages | 02:09 |
| surgy | i did? | 02:09 |
| bazhang | surgy, so we need tons more details on how to resolve this, you are giving the absolute bare minimum of info for troubleshooting | 02:10 |
| codepython777 | does anyone know why ssh xyz gives me "Enter password to unlock the private key" box ? | 02:10 |
| surgy | bazhang, im sorry for doing that. the reason im not giving you the information you need to help me is because i dont know what that information is or how to get it. | 02:11 |
| daftykins | i told you the command to run, consider me given up on you :) | 02:11 |
| bazhang | surgy, first, do what daftykins suggested a moment ago | 02:11 |
| surgy | sorry i had issed that line doing so now | 02:11 |
| surgy | it shows nothing... thats for broken or incomplete packages right? http://www.pasteall.org/60253 | 02:12 |
| kostkon | surgy, run sudo apt-get upgrade now | 02:14 |
| kostkon | surgy, or do a test run first | 02:14 |
| surgy | a "test run" ? | 02:15 |
| kostkon | surgy, sudo apt-get upgrade -s if you want | 02:15 |
| surgy | http://www.pasteall.org/60254 | 02:16 |
| kostkon | surgy, what ubuntu version are you on? | 02:17 |
| JanC | there is also the 'xserver-xorg-input-aiptek' driver, and it seems like there used to be an 'xserver-xorg-input-wizardpen' driver in a PPA (without recent updates), that both cover some non-wacom tablets | 02:17 |
| daftykins | uh-oh. utopic. | 02:18 |
| daftykins | !utopic | 02:18 |

| daftykins | game over | 02:18 |
| kostkon | surgy, ok im guessing 14.04 with the hwe stack ok | 02:18 |
| surgy | yes 14.04 have no idea what a hwe stack is | 02:18 |
| === Shrooms` is now known as Shrooms | ||
| bazhang | !hwe | 02:19 |
| ubottu | On August 7, 2014, Ubuntu 12.04.5 will deliver the kernel and graphics stack from 14.04. At that time, security updates and bug fixes for older hardware enablement stacks will cease. Users of older hardware enablement stacks are encouraged to update to the 12.04.5 hardware enablement stack or upgrade to 14.04. Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/1204_HWE_EOL for further details. | 02:19 |
| bazhang | surgy see above | 02:19 |
| surgy | ok | 02:19 |
| kostkon | surgy, pick a kde package from the list and apt-cache it | 02:20 |
| kostkon | surgy, apt-cache policy* | 02:20 |
| surgy | apt-cache policy* is not a command | 02:21 |
| kostkon | surgy, apt-cache policy <package name> | 02:22 |
| surgy | http://www.pasteall.org/60255 | 02:23 |
| kostkon | surgy, thought so. ppa mess | 02:23 |
| surgy | ppa mess? | 02:23 |
| kostkon | surgy, you have added a ppa and it has created dependency problems | 02:24 |
| bazhang | ppa-purge if its not too late | 02:24 |
| bazhang | !ppa-purge | surgy | 02:25 |
| ubottu | surgy: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 02:25 |
| JanC | seems like that Huion tablet needed the unmaintained 'xserver-xorg-input-wizardpen' driver until at least a couple years back? | 02:25 |
| JanC | so then the wacom driver is probably useless, I think? | 02:26 |
| OerHeks | there is also digimend, formaly known as huion, http://digimend.github.io/drivers/ | 02:26 |
| bazhang | he's on an eol version, mixed with ppa | 02:26 |
| JanC | OerHeks: aha, that looks better indeed, if it's maintained | 02:28 |
| surgy | so how do i know which ppa is bad? and which to get rid of? | 02:28 |
| JanC | OerHeks: although it seems like all their stuff is upstreamed now? | 02:29 |
| fowl | Audio skips. Been here for three days. The problem has existed since i installed the os 15.04 in may or so. | 02:29 |
| fowl | Every once in a while i say audio skips so that nobody can help me | 02:30 |
| kostkon | surgy, this one https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports To purge it, install ppa-purge and then use the command as described above, i.e. sudo ppa-purge ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports | 02:31 |
| surgy | so thank you guys for helping me figure out that i screwed up..... but at least i tried before askign for help..... i dont really understand what i tried i guess..... | 02:31 |

| Pinkamena_D | So it seems like from when I first tried to use two video cards back in 2011 or so, not much has been updated. People still suggest manual xorg config and removing ubuntu unity. Has anyone heard that there is any progress on this issue or should I be trying to start writing my own scripts? | 02:35 |
| bazhang | surgy time to upgrade to a support verion of ubuntu | 02:35 |
| kostkon | surgy, try doing a sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade should give no errors | 02:35 |
| bazhang | !eolupgrades | surgy | 02:36 |
| ubottu | surgy: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 02:36 |
| surgy | umm | 02:36 |
| wileee | Pinkamena_D, radeons are not very well supported, when they are it seems for a short while, do the research before proclaiming hogwash | 02:36 |
| surgy | as of a few hours ago this was listed as the lts | 02:36 |
| bazhang | surgy you said 14.10 | 02:36 |
| daftykins | surgy: show the output of "lsb_release -d" | 02:36 |
| Pinkamena_D | wileee, what? Who said anything about radeons? | 02:37 |
| surgy | Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS | 02:37 |
| Pinkamena_D | I mean generally, about any video cards. I have many ndivia and amd lying around that I have tested. | 02:37 |
| surgy | and i said 14.04 | 02:37 |
| daftykins | alright, this is called checking information - don't get awkward about it | 02:38 |
| wileee | Pinkamena_D, Thought you had that per earlier post, what are they | 02:38 |
| surgy | sorry its just frustratin | 02:38 |
| Pinkamena_D | Currently I have 8800gt and integrated intel | 02:39 |
| monty_hall | if I have ssh installed and I connect, does that necessarily mean I haver sftp too? | 02:39 |
| surgy | and yes i upgraded with 0 errors | 02:39 |
| wileee | Pinkamena_D, Never the less your statement is one borne of frustration and generalized, we can do without that. ;) | 02:39 |
| JanC | monty_hall: depends on the ssh server configuration | 02:40 |
| kostkon | surgy, you've got the option now to install the latest hwe stack from 15.04 if you want, if you are after more up-to-date drivers https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 02:41 |
| Pinkamena_D | The xorg documentation is very strange and does cause frusteration. There are seemingly a very large number of places where donfigs are stored and adding a single monitor seems to be very difficult to do correctly. The frusteration, however, came from some posts claiming that unity 'does not support two video cards', which makes all of the effort useless anyway. | 02:41 |
| surgy | kostkon, the huion driver is included in the 15.04 hwe stack? | 02:42 |
| kostkon | surgy, no idea | 02:42 |
| JanC | what kernel does 14.04 have again? | 02:43 |
| wileee | Pinkamena_D, Understand that on the web, get the info that is correct, people will say anything there like here. | 02:43 |
| wileee | I'm on your side really. ;) | 02:44 |
| Bashing-om | JanC: 3.13.0-61-generic . | 02:44 |
| Pinkamena_D | Would you say that you have heard something to the contrary of what I said from official sources or are you just trying to be upbeat? | 02:44 |
| Pinkamena_D | =P | 02:45 |
| JanC | and the Huion driver is in 3.17 | 02:45 |
| codepython777 | does anyone know why ssh xyz gives me "Enter password to unlock the private key" box ? | 02:45 |
| wileee | Pinkamena_D, No I just spend a lot of time here and rarely see a graphic issue not fixed if the right protocol is followed. | 02:45 |
| surgy | JanC, i have 3.17 | 02:46 |
| wileee | and there is support is the issue | 02:46 |
| surgy | 3.16* | 02:46 |
| Pinkamena_D | codepython777, ssh-add -D ? | 02:46 |

| daftykins | yeah you've not been installing your updates | 02:48 |
| hello_ | hi | 02:49 |
| kostkon | surgy, the 15.04 stack will give you 3.19 afaik | 02:49 |
| JanC | surgy: you can install 3.19 kernels | 02:49 |
| surgy | daftykins, ive only been up and running with kubuntu for 4 hours lol | 02:49 |
| monty_hall | JanC: would you know if ubuntu desktop defaults to active? | 02:49 |
| monty_hall | active sftp that is.. | 02:50 |
| daftykins | surgy: doesn't seem likely | 02:50 |
| surgy | daftykins, yeah how so? | 02:50 |
| JanC | monty_hall: I think SFTP support is on by default, yes | 02:50 |
| daftykins | outdated kernel and lsb_release claiming 14.04.3 | 02:50 |
| daftykins | surgy: so "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" - install and reboot, before anything further | 02:51 |
| JanC | kernel does not upgrade automatically AFAIK | 02:51 |
| daftykins | not accurate | 02:51 |
| daftykins | i'm talking about sub versions | 02:51 |
| surgy | lol i downloaded the iso after work today | 02:51 |
| hello_ | anyone knows about the connect the another sever? | 02:51 |
| daftykins | hello_: try that one again? | 02:51 |
| hello_ | anyone knows about how to connect the another sever? | 02:51 |
| surgy | daftykins, ok wil ldo | 02:51 |
| hello_ | server* | 02:52 |
| JanC | but a new install should have the new kernel, I guess | 02:52 |
| daftykins | hello_: via what? command line? file share? telepathy? | 02:52 |
| hello_ | via command line. | 02:52 |
| daftykins | !ssh | hello_ | 02:53 |

| surgy | daftykins, http://www.pasteall.org/60257 it didnt install or upgrade anything.... so should i still reboot? | 02:54 |
| hello_ | thanks daftykins and ubottu | 02:54 |
| daftykins | try "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 02:55 |
| surgy | same nothing to install or upgrade | 02:55 |
| daftykins | ok no idea why you've got held packages, but i'm done | 02:56 |
| surgy | ok thnx. | 02:56 |
| surgy | btw just a note. this is why things are how they are. j/s | 02:57 |
| JanC | surgy: I'd say try to reboot and see if that got you the right kernel :) | 02:57 |
| daftykins | "j/s" ? | 02:57 |
| surgy | just saying* | 02:58 |
| daftykins | also, when you say 'this' you have to actually provide an explanation or claim | 02:58 |
| daftykins | so your sentence didn't do anything | 02:58 |
| daftykins | JanC: nothing has changed... | 02:58 |
| kostkon | surgy, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Trusty the long one | 02:58 |
| JanC | you can also see the installed kernels in /boot/ of course | 02:58 |
| surgy | "this" being defined as the subject at hand. having a simple configuration of a piece of hid compliant hardware. changing the mapping of a button on something i have a driver for. | 02:58 |
| JanC | surgy: the configuration stuff is not HID compliant | 02:59 |
| JanC | actually, the HID compliant part only emulates a mouse | 03:00 |
| JanC | which is useless as graphics tablets go | 03:00 |
| surgy | JanC, i understand. i just dont understand why i cant just change a config file somewhere. | 03:00 |
| surgy | http://www.pasteall.org/60256 | 03:00 |
| surgy | see my tablet is there. and it does work | 03:01 |
| surgy | with pressure sensitivty | 03:01 |
| JanC | that's the USB HID part | 03:01 |
| JanC | surgy: are you using Krita, GIMP, ...? | 03:02 |
| surgy | krita | 03:02 |
| JanC | did you try other applications like the GIMP too? | 03:03 |
| surgy | JanC, yes it works everywhere | 03:03 |
| JanC | surgy: but can you configure it there? | 03:04 |
| surgy | no | 03:04 |
| JanC | surgy: so do you have a 3.19 kernel in /boot/ ? | 03:05 |
| surgy | let me rephrase | 03:06 |
| surgy | i can edit the buttons of the tablet in gimp. but i cannot change the orientation of the tablet in gimp | 03:06 |
| surgy | JanC, and no i only have kernal 3.16 in /boot/ | 03:07 |
| surgy | JanC, and if your curious this is where i got my iso http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu the 14.04 lts | 03:08 |
| cfhowlett | surgy: this is a wacom tablet? | 03:09 |
| JanC | cfhowlett: no | 03:09 |
| bazhang | cfhowlett, a 'huion' | 03:10 |
| surgy | cfhowlett, no its a huion tablet | 03:10 |
| JanC | can you install 'linux-generic-lts-vivid' | 03:10 |
| JanC | surgy: ^^^ | 03:10 |
| JanC | that should give you 3.19 kernels | 03:11 |
| surgy | so i need the 3.19 kernal so that i will have the driver? | 03:12 |
| JanC | surgy: I don't know, but a newer driver might help | 03:12 |
| surgy | JanC, thats the frustrating part. the thing works lol i just cant configure it. | 03:13 |
| JanC | if it doesn't, you might also want to ask the developers of Krita, GIMP, etc. | 03:13 |
| JanC | maybe it's something on their side... | 03:13 |
| Bashing-om | surgy: JanC libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-lts-vivid linux-image-generic-lts-vivid also ?? | 03:14 |
| surgy | JanC, in windows and in linux (if your using a wacom) you open the configuration utility and change the button mapping and orientation and resolution of the tablet. not in the programs | 03:14 |
| JanC | surgy: maybe the wacom utility only works with wacom tablets, I don't know | 03:15 |
| JanC | you could also try a live-booted 15.04 to see if it works there | 03:16 |
| cfhowlett | wacom and wacom under-the-hood devices | 03:16 |
| fowl | i'm on 15.04. audio skips constantly, on ever application. kernel 3.19, ubuntu 15.04, please help? | 03:16 |
| JanC | cfhowlett: this isn't wacom compatible though | 03:16 |
| cfhowlett | noted | 03:16 |
| JanC | apparently a very popular Chinese graphics tablet design | 03:17 |
| JanC | because it's cheap probably :) | 03:17 |
| JanC | but the manufacturer doesn't have or help with linux support, it seems | 03:17 |
| cfhowlett | JanC, in Beijing, can confirm. very popular here. | 03:19 |
| surgy | JanC, the manufacturer has a driver too but its not needed in kernal > 3.15 according to them. | 03:19 |
| JanC | cfhowlett: it's sold under tens of names at least :) | 03:19 |
| surgy | and its popular because it performs well and its cheap | 03:19 |
| cfhowlett | JanC, it's China. Sold under 100's of names | 03:20 |
| JanC | surgy: the people who make the drivers say their up-to-date driver is in 3.17 | 03:20 |
| JanC | or something | 03:20 |
| JanC | so if you install 3.19, reboot, & check if that helps... | 03:21 |
| hello_ | Janc, you're so kind. :) | 03:22 |
| JanC | cfhowlett: at least tens of brand names tested & listed on the driver page :) | 03:23 |

| fabzor3 | gparted is great | 03:30 |
| wileee | tri, Excellent, good job. ;) | 03:30 |
| tri | thanks bro | 03:30 |
| cfhowlett | LonelyCoder, eh, or this | 03:30 |
| cfhowlett | http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-14-04-install-guide.html | 03:30 |
| wileee | noprb | 03:30 |
| JanC | IMO "dependable" means you know beforehand when it will skip :) | 03:30 |
| fabzor3 | omg stop whinging about ubuntu install guides, they are great | 03:31 |
| fabzor3 | if you want something really scarey then install a proper text only os like gentoo or arch | 03:31 |
| fabzor3 | ubuntu help is really good | 03:32 |
| fowl | JanC, well i'd put money on it. every audio application skips a few times every 5-10 minutes | 03:32 |
| fabzor3 | is there something in particular I can help you with> | 03:32 |
| * wileee has a dual boot of gentoo and arch in a russet potato | 03:32 | |
| fabzor3 | if its skipping perhaps have a look at your bugger size | 03:33 |
| JanC | fowl: I assume your system is fast enough & has enough RAM so that can't be the reason? | 03:33 |
| fabzor3 | *buffer size i mean | 03:33 |
| fabzor3 | your settings could be too aggressive | 03:33 |
| fabzor3 | even with the best computer, if you have the wrong seetings for your sound hardware itll skip | 03:34 |
| JanC | fabzor3: most applications don't allow to set that and use big buffers by default | 03:34 |
| fabzor3 | right | 03:34 |
| fabzor3 | so what exactly are we talking about here? | 03:35 |
| fowl | where are the settings | 03:35 |
| JanC | fowl: I assume you haven't messed with your audio configuration, right? | 03:35 |
| fowl | no i havent | 03:36 |
| OerHeks | fowl, setting audio standard in BIOS from HD to AC97 could help | 03:37 |
| JanC | OerHeks: that sounds like a ugly workaround really :) | 03:38 |
| JanC | fowl: and this is Ubuntu Desktop, not Ubuntu Studio or the like? | 03:38 |
| fabzor3 | ac97 is a better supported chipset, since its older | 03:38 |
| OerHeks | maybe there is a bios upgrade too | 03:38 |
| fabzor3 | whats so good about hd anyway? | 03:38 |
| fowl | desktop | 03:38 |
| fowl | i dont need HD audio | 03:39 |
| JanC | fowl: can you monitor CPU-usage while you are playing audio and see if some application uses a lot of CPU, especially when the skips happen? | 03:40 |
| fabzor3 | haha if you do then go and buy a 2 thousand dollar firewire rackmount sound card made by motu | 03:40 |
| fabzor3 | nothing onboard will even be "HD" ;) | 03:40 |
| nmatrix9 | Hey does anyone know why I can't play a iso dvd with .webm files in it? | 03:40 |
| fabzor3 | nmatrix9, possibly because you dont have the correct codecs installed | 03:40 |
| JanC | that "HD" is just a branding thing | 03:40 |
| cfhowlett | nmatrix9, commercial DVD? drm | 03:41 |
| JanC | it has no real meaning | 03:41 |
| fabzor3 | hd is pretty funny yeah | 03:41 |
| nmatrix9 | cfhowlett, it's a open source dvd | 03:41 |
| JanC | high quality audio would be called HiFi | 03:41 |
| nmatrix9 | fabzor3, cfhowlett this is the dvd https://krita.org/item/muses/ | 03:42 |
| nmatrix9 | it's not drm protected | 03:42 |
| cfhowlett | nmatrix9, assuming it's mounted, copy a .webm to your desktop and try again. also: ubuntu-restricted-extras and/or VLC might help | 03:42 |
| nmatrix9 | fabzor3, cfhowlett I can mount it and play the files inside individually but I can't play the iso normally like I do other dvd isos for some reason. | 03:42 |
| fowl | JanC, i am right now watching a movie on VLC with nothing else open | 03:43 |
| cfhowlett | !dvd | nmatrix9, best advice I can give is to look at your DVD setup | 03:43 |
| ubottu | nmatrix9, best advice I can give is to look at your DVD setup: Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons. For information on adding them, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | For information on the legalities involved, see the "DVD" section of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 03:43 |

| ghost_ | Hello everybody! | 04:02 |
| Gerowen | Hello ghost_! | 04:02 |
| Gerowen | Question all, why does Nautilus keep re-enabling "Show hidden files"? | 04:02 |
| Gerowen | I uncheck it, close all open file browser windows, open one back up and it still does it. Rebooting has no affect. | 04:03 |
| ghost_ | :) | 04:03 |
| Bashing-om | ghost_: Try key combo ctl+h, close out nautilus, when reopened is good ? | 04:04 |
| Gerowen | Bashing-om: Nope, CTRL+H hides the hidden files for the duration of that particular instance of nautilus, but when I open a new window they are shown again. | 04:09 |
| Gerowen | I've tried restarting the nautilus service, restarting the whole computer and everything. | 04:09 |
| Gerowen | Bashing-om: Got it, had to go into the preferences and uncheck "Show hidden and backup files", apparently that is a separate option from the checkmark in the "view" menu. | 04:15 |
| cristian_ | Hola | 04:16 |

| ObrienDave | yes | 06:49 |
| ErrorFlexXx | I already searched for it on google but cant find any hints to solve this. After the login there is a system problem detected (MessageBox) On /var/crash I can find the file -rw-r----- 1 lightdm whoopsie 427707 Aug 8 08:44 _usr_lib_x86_64-linux-gnu_indicator-sound_indicator-sound-service.112.crash | 06:51 |

| ObrienDave | i don't have an answer for you. stick around, someone can help you eventually | 06:54 |

| EriC^^ | hello | 07:03 |
| Dishonored | does ubuntu search and install graphics drivers by default? | 07:04 |
| Dishonored | or i need to install them? | 07:04 |
| ObrienDave | which card? | 07:05 |
| Dishonored | its not installed in my machine by default, but is there a way i can make ubuntu do it for me, or i need to do all shit by myself | 07:05 |
| Dishonored | ? | 07:05 |
| Dishonored | amd | 07:05 |
| Dishonored | radeon 6000 M series | 07:05 |
| === link is now known as Guest68272 | ||
| EriC^^ | Dishonored: open the dash, type drivers | 07:06 |
| ObrienDave | i think amd has linus drivers. you have to get them from amd. i'm not 100% sure on that | 07:06 |
| ObrienDave | *linux | 07:06 |
| Dishonored | ObrienDave, ya, shit load of dependency issues or install logs | 07:07 |
| Dishonored | on install logs* | 07:07 |
| Guest68272 | Hi, im new here. may anyone tell if there's a channel to get info about 7kaa? I mean seven kingdoms? | 07:07 |
| Guest68272 | It's a game, right? | 07:07 |
| Dishonored | Guest68272, use alist | 07:08 |
| Dishonored | alis* | 07:08 |
| Guest68272 | i already did it! | 07:08 |
| Guest68272 | & found none! | 07:08 |
| Dishonored | EriC^^, i just checked additional driver from settings menu, it shows amd driver installed but a different one than i need | 07:09 |
| EriC^^ | which one do you need? | 07:10 |
| Guest68272 | ok thanks for none!! | 07:10 |
| ObrienDave | *blinks* | 07:11 |
| Dishonored | EriC^^, http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Latest-LINUX-Beta-Driver.aspx | 07:12 |
| EriC^^ | download it from the site then | 07:13 |
| Dishonored | ya, but heck a load of dependency issues, and even unsure if its safe, i see dependency issue other than ones included in download page | 07:14 |
| Dishonored | just wondering if there is a package by ubuntu for the latest drivers, they're are not open source, so does ubuntu host proprietry ones? | 07:16 |
| Dishonored | or shall i resolve dependency myself and install? | 07:17 |
| ObrienDave | ROFL why would the drivers from AMD be considered unsafe? | 07:17 |
| Dishonored | they're beta | 07:17 |
| EriC^^ | Dishonored: i think the driver from the site makes a .deb that you finally install | 07:18 |
| EriC^^ | should pull whatever it needs, you're probably doing it wrong | 07:18 |
| Dishonored | EriC^^, the interface says it generates system specific driver packages, i just selects it that all i do and next i get error regarding prerequistes.. | 07:21 |
| EriC^^ | are you supposed to run it with sudo/gksu? | 07:21 |
| Dishonored | sudo, yes | 07:22 |
| EriC^^ | ok so what are the dependencies it says are missing? | 07:22 |
| Dishonored | dh-modaliases,execstack, dpkg-dev, debhelper, dkms.lib32gcc1 etc.. | 07:26 |
| EriC^^ | Dishonored: ok, install them.. | 07:29 |
| Dishonored | EriC^^, i have got them installed | 07:30 |
| === RudeViper|Snooze is now known as RudeViper | ||
| Dishonored | EriC^^, the package is generated and now i have to install them, but installer encounter error saying dependency are no resolved and cleans up temporary files | 07:32 |

| EriC^^ | sure, why not | 07:33 |

| BilboSwaggins | what do | 07:55 |
| funkenstrahlen | Hey, I have a fresh ubuntu 14.04 lts. I installed the ufw package. But I get a weird error when I call 'ufw enable' https://gist.github.com/funkenstrahlen/8d22f9d0eb80aa12ca7b | 07:57 |
| funkenstrahlen | any tipps? | 07:57 |
| EriC^^ | BilboSwaggins: type df -h | 07:57 |
| EriC^^ | paste in paste.ubuntu.com | 07:57 |
| cfhowlett | funkenstrahlen, installed ufw? what? it comes WITH ubuntu! so what did YOU do? | 07:57 |
| funkenstrahlen | cfhowlett: sudo apt-get install ufw | 07:58 |
| BilboSwaggins | EriC^^, I'd paste them there but Firefox doesn't like to run with 0.0kb free space | 07:58 |
| Varu_ | Hi All need Help: After upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04.3 , it doesn't load the UI. and on console throws Error device not accepting address 4, error -71 and Error setting new configurations | 07:58 |
| funkenstrahlen | cfhowlett: its a vserver and fresh reset by my provider. the ubuntu image the provider provides does not include ufw by default | 07:58 |
| BilboSwaggins | EriC^^, kern.log and syslog are huge | 07:59 |
| BilboSwaggins | and taking up all the space | 07:59 |
| EriC^^ | BilboSwaggins: tail -100 | nc termbin.com 9999 | 07:59 |
| cfhowlett | funkenstrahlen, then you're provider gave you something very non-standard. personally, I wouldn't trust it | 07:59 |
| cfhowlett | *your* | 07:59 |
| BilboSwaggins | EriC^^, what does that do | 07:59 |
| EriC^^ | sends a paste to termbin.com | 07:59 |
| BilboSwaggins | of what | 08:00 |
| ObrienDave | of the last 100 lines | 08:00 |
| BilboSwaggins | of what >:( | 08:00 |
| EriC^^ | sorry | 08:00 |
| EriC^^ | lol | 08:00 |
| funkenstrahlen | cfhowlett: I can not choose a custom image. | 08:00 |
| EriC^^ | tail -100 /var/log/syslog | 08:00 |
| funkenstrahlen | cfhowlett: I have to deal with their basic images | 08:00 |
| cfhowlett | funkenstrahlen, then you probably need to contact them for support because they altered it. | 08:01 |
| cfhowlett | !ufw | funkenstrahlen | 08:01 |
| ubottu | funkenstrahlen: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 08:01 |
| BilboSwaggins | ok EriC^^ I did it | 08:01 |
| EriC^^ | what's the link? | 08:01 |
| BilboSwaggins | http://termbin.com/nthc | 08:01 |
| BilboSwaggins | looks like iwlwifi is being a super spax | 08:01 |
| BilboSwaggins | spaz | 08:01 |
| EriC^^ | BilboSwaggins: which kernel are you running? type uname -r | 08:03 |
| BilboSwaggins | 3.16.0-45-generic | 08:03 |
| EriC^^ | try running an older kernel | 08:03 |
| BilboSwaggins | how am I going to do anything when I have 0 space to work with | 08:04 |
| BilboSwaggins | what I need to know is how to delete these logs | 08:04 |
| BilboSwaggins | /dev/sda5 75G 71G 4.0K 100% / | 08:04 |
| ObrienDave | sleepy time *waves* | 08:06 |
| cfhowlett | BilboSwaggins, sudo rm NameOfLogHere but proceed with extreme caution. for instance; /dev/sda5 IS NOT your log file and that command would wipe the partition - probably not what you want to accomplish | 08:06 |
| BilboSwaggins | cfhowlett, ye but once I do that how do I stop the log from filling again | 08:07 |
| BilboSwaggins | because I know that's what is going to happen | 08:07 |
| BilboSwaggins | cfhowlett, the files are kern.log and syslog | 08:07 |
| BilboSwaggins | deleting those isn't going to make Ubuntu die, right? | 08:08 |
| EriC^^ | type echo "" | sudo tee /var/log/syslog | 08:08 |
| EriC^^ | don't delete | 08:08 |
| BilboSwaggins | ok let's see what happens | 08:08 |
| EriC^^ | or delete no problem | 08:08 |
| cfhowlett | BilboSwaggins, as you rightly point out: better to suss out why before you start deleting things. outside my admittedly narrow range of knowledge. ask someone else and proceed with caution. | 08:08 |
| EriC^^ | type sudo rm /var/log/syslog /var/log/kern.log | 08:08 |
| BilboSwaggins | sudo tee, right? | 08:08 |
| BilboSwaggins | delete no problem? | 08:08 |
| EriC^^ | then type sudo service rsyslog restart | 08:08 |
| BilboSwaggins | ok let's see | 08:09 |
| EriC^^ | are you using wifi? | 08:09 |
| BilboSwaggins | yes | 08:10 |
| BilboSwaggins | one device broke the other day somehow | 08:10 |
| BilboSwaggins | judging from that log I linked earlier I get the feeling whatever iwlwifi is is spazzing out | 08:10 |
| EriC^^ | it's the wifi module | 08:10 |
| BilboSwaggins | EriC^^, how do I stop that | 08:12 |
| BilboSwaggins | because rsyslogd is doing it again already | 08:12 |
| EriC^^ | BilboSwaggins: type apt-cache policy linux-firmware | grep Installed | 08:12 |
| cfhowlett | BilboSwaggins, I take it you are not IRC from the problem machine?? | 08:12 |
| EriC^^ | sudo modprobe -r iwlwifi , you'll lose internet if you're using wifi though | 08:12 |
| BilboSwaggins | cfhowlett, I am | 08:13 |
| EriC^^ | BilboSwaggins: which ubuntu are you using? | 08:13 |
| BilboSwaggins | LTS | 08:13 |
| EriC^^ | ok, type apt-cache ... | 08:13 |
| EriC^^ | try the 3.13.0-61 kernel maybe | 08:14 |
| BilboSwaggins | why would that help | 08:14 |
| EriC^^ | cause https://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2014/10/msg00224.html | 08:15 |
| EriC^^ | BilboSwaggins: which linux-firmware do you have? | 08:16 |
| BilboSwaggins | I am just going to figure out a way to break rsyslogd | 08:16 |
| EriC^^ | you can just stop the service if you want | 08:16 |
| EriC^^ | sudo service rsyslog stop | 08:16 |
| BilboSwaggins | wow that worked | 08:19 |
| Cyb3rn3t | how can I hide join and quit messages in irssi ? | 08:19 |
| BilboSwaggins | thanks EriC^^ | 08:20 |
| EriC^^ | no problem | 08:21 |
| EriC^^ | BilboSwaggins: you have modify rsyslog.conf to ignore certain msgs if you want | 08:21 |
| EriC^^ | so you still keep it running | 08:22 |

| linuXm1nt | well, anybody has any idea of the ETA of photorec of now: 107 hours? Trying to recover files from a Windows partition, the files were practically destroyed. Manahged to recover some of them. | 09:11 |
| heelflip | linuXm1nt: did you try testdisk first? | 09:12 |
| heelflip | you can browse for the files with it and recover the ones you want | 09:12 |
| linuXm1nt | heelpflip it is the same program right? | 09:12 |
| heelflip | yeah, it's the same package | 09:12 |
| heelflip | sudo testdisk in the terminal runs it | 09:13 |
| linuXm1nt | heelpflip: can i do it while running photorec? | 09:13 |
| heelflip | hmm i dunno, i doubt | 09:14 |
| heelflip | maybe, give it a shot | 09:15 |
| linuXm1nt | heelpflip what does it do, basically. record info of the partition or actual recovery of files? | 09:15 |
| MonkeyDust | heelflip it recovers the files, puts them in maps | 09:15 |
| heelflip | linuXm1nt: it searches the disk for partitions that have been erased, and you can recover the whole partition or browse the files and recover what you want | 09:16 |
| MonkeyDust | oops linuXm1nt ^^^^ | 09:16 |
| linuXm1nt | heelpflip the partition itself is not deleted, the windows is working | 09:16 |
| linuXm1nt | *windows | 09:17 |
| heelflip | linuXm1nt: you can browse the files then | 09:17 |
| heelflip | it's way quicker than photorec | 09:17 |
| linuXm1nt | heelpflip: exactly, however photorec managed to recover destroyed photos. Will it do the same? | 09:18 |
| linuXm1nt | *corrupt | 09:18 |
| heelflip | linuXm1nt: if photorec managed to get them testdisk will probably be able to do the same, except more efficiently | 09:18 |
| heelflip | think of it as photorec is a searching tool, testdisk can let you browse and individually get the files or dirs | 09:18 |
| heelflip | it's made by the same company | 09:18 |
| linuXm1nt | heelpflip oh shut, i wis i had know that earlier ;) | 09:19 |

| telboon | I'm using Ubuntu | 09:28 |
| heelflip | linuXm1nt: if you use testdisk, press "p" over the partition to list the files, it's a little tricky to use it at first | 09:28 |

| linuXm1nt | hahaha | 09:29 |
| heelflip | linuXm1nt: lol | 09:30 |
| heelflip | did you run it? | 09:30 |
| heelflip | it is pretty confusing.. | 09:30 |
| linuXm1nt | heelflip yep but the option are strange | 09:30 |
| linuXm1nt | heelpflip would be 1st creat a new log file? | 09:30 |
| heelflip | linuXm1nt: ok, after you choose the disk, it should give you Intel GPT etc. press enter over the one that's selected | 09:31 |
| heelflip | if you want yeah, it's not necessary | 09:31 |
| linuXm1nt | heelflip efi gpt. isnt that what windows 8 would be? (efi?) or intel pc? mmmm | 09:33 |

| linuXm1nt | tokam it should | 09:55 |
| tokam | yes it is linked in the command center | 09:56 |
| tokam | but not bellow applications | 09:56 |
| tokam | MonkeyDust: you are talking about libre writer? | 09:56 |
| tokam | will not it be hard to position all my icons for my CV with writer? | 09:57 |
| linuXm1nt | heelflip so odd, it does only give me the option of quick search | 09:58 |
| linuXm1nt | heelflip oh oh found it | 09:59 |
| MonkeyDust | tokam yes | 10:00 |
| MonkeyDust | tokam i mean yes, i mean Libre Ofice Writer | 10:00 |
| tokam | let's assume I like to have a pattern in background of the whole page | 10:00 |
| tokam | than I will end up with issues with libre? | 10:01 |
| tokam | I was thinking on something like gimp MonkeyDust | 10:01 |
| linuXm1nt | tokam, can you not use the equivalent of publisher on libreoffice and then move to writer? | 10:02 |
| tokam | how? | 10:02 |
| tokam | libre draw? | 10:03 |
| linuXm1nt | tokam as soon as my so comes back to life i'll tell you | 10:03 |
| tokam | what is the equivalent of publisher on libereoffice? | 10:03 |
| linuXm1nt | tokam that's right | 10:05 |
| tokam | ok | 10:05 |
| tokam | so you recomment to use draw | 10:06 |
| linuXm1nt | tokam can you not add a background, export the file into an odt format on to writer? | 10:06 |
| linuXm1nt | i would say yes, cannot guarantee 100% ;) | 10:06 |
| MonkeyDust | tokam gimp for a cv? gimp is similar to photoshop, it's not a text editor | 10:08 |
| tokam | something like this can not be done with libre alone? http://www.webdesigntunes.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/2oxy43oj.png | 10:09 |
| tokam | I do not like it | 10:09 |
| tokam | but it shows what I am talking about | 10:09 |
| tokam | http://designscrazed.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/InDesign-resume.jpg | 10:10 |
| Dishonored | tokam, gimp should do it just fine for you | 10:10 |
| tokam | Is there a software that is easier to use? | 10:10 |
| tokam | is libre draw really recommended? | 10:11 |
| linuXm1nt | tokam it is not bad | 10:11 |
| tokam | I did not find out yet how to import to writer | 10:11 |
| Dishonored | i would rather use css!!! | 10:11 |
| tokam | I think on windows illustrator were the right choice? | 10:11 |
| linuXm1nt | tokam using wine maybe? | 10:11 |
| tokam | maybe | 10:12 |
| Dishonored | tokam, if you plan on pulling out different images and putting them together and_not_making images by yourself, you can give gimp a try, putting images is not that tough with gimp | 10:13 |
| Dishonored | tokam, there are templates out there on libre office's website, maybe that will help out too | 10:14 |
| tokam | JUsr for future knowledge: What would you use to make images on ubuntu? | 10:14 |

| unbuntu732 | I heard that for ubuntu to run games, an AMD card won't work and I basically need Nvida. How much of this is true? | 10:49 |
| blackflow | somewhat. nvidia has historically had better driver support. | 10:49 |
| unbuntu732 | That's a bit disappointing. Alright, thanks. :3 | 10:50 |
| blackflow | but, eh, games on linux is a joke. Most of those that can run in Wine run much better in Wine than natively on Linux. | 10:50 |
| OerHeks | AMD 2xxx 3xxx 4xxx are old, if you have a newer GPU, it should work | 10:51 |
| unbuntu732 | I'm new to ubuntu and at the stage of a dual boot, just so I can run my games and if I really need to get something done, I can go to windows until I can figure out how to do it on ubuntu. So these kinds of questions are things that I stop in to check on a bit often | 10:51 |
| unbuntu732 | mine is a radion r7 200. | 10:52 |
| unbuntu732 | Which is fairly new I think | 10:52 |
| fabzor3 | oh hey | 10:53 |
| fabzor3 | couldnt be further from the truth my friend | 10:53 |
| fabzor3 | ati work great | 10:53 |
| fabzor3 | also in particular for regnum online I find ati cards to be a lot faster than nvidia cards of the same spec | 10:53 |
| Dishonored | fun fact, while i'm seeing this, i'm downloading TF2 | 10:54 |
| fabzor3 | I have had just as many nvidia drivers as ati drivers bug out on me | 10:54 |
| blackflow | fabzor3: how many different ATI cards you tested? | 10:54 |
| unbuntu732 | I'm really not sure, but that's probably because of nivida physx making it seem better | 10:54 |
| fabzor3 | lets see | 10:54 |
| fabzor3 | not that many | 10:54 |
| fabzor3 | though I have owned about 5 of them | 10:54 |
| blackflow | two? ten? | 10:54 |
| fabzor3 | and I have had about 7 nvidia cards | 10:54 |
| fabzor3 | over about 7 years or so | 10:54 |
| fabzor3 | since my 3dfx days on windows | 10:54 |
| fabzor3 | I started on ubuntu 6 and now I run ubuntu 15 | 10:55 |
| unbuntu732 | I'm on 15 myself, though I want to drop down to 14 | 10:55 |
| unbuntu732 | Because apparently steam doesn't work on 15 | 10:55 |
| blackflow | unbuntu732: not true | 10:55 |
| fabzor3 | nah phytsx is really not used much in linux, physx tends to be used more for windows games | 10:55 |
| unbuntu732 | it doesn't show up in the ubuntu software menu for me. Then again, I'm new and probably doing something wrong | 10:56 |
| blackflow | unbuntu732: the software center supposedly sucks big time after 14.04. I don't use it, but there's steam if you run apt-get on the command line. | 10:57 |
| Dishonored | unbuntu732, really? nvidia provide better support? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_36yNWw_07g -----> linus torvald's reaction towards nvidia | 10:57 |
| === diveinto0 is now known as diveinto0^afk | ||
| unbuntu732 | I made no claims of support. | 10:57 |
| BotchlaB | Dishonored: To be fair, that was some 3 years ago; while Optimus still has issues, it's somewhat improved now. | 10:57 |
| blackflow | Dishonored: that's for the open source driver that sucks big time | 10:57 |
| Dishonored | yes | 10:57 |

| x4w3 | and with your company more. | 11:01 |
| Dishonored | unbuntu732, what game are you trying to run? just curious to know.. | 11:01 |
| x4w3 | accompaniment sorry. | 11:02 |
| unbuntu732 | Well, Maplestory and Devpro yugioh sim | 11:02 |
| unbuntu732 | But I also have a pile of other emulator games for videos later | 11:02 |
| unbuntu732 | but those should all run on their respective emulators | 11:03 |
| blackflow | unbuntu732: if your card is significantly stronger than the recommended specs for a game, it should run in linux fine. otherwise forget about it. | 11:04 |
| unbuntu732 | I was actually hoping that with linux being a lighter weight OS the hardware would go further | 11:04 |
| unbuntu732 | But my main reason for switching is microsoft's new privacy or lack of I should say | 11:05 |
| Dishonored | man if you're into PC gaming....YOU_NEED_WINDOWS | 11:05 |
| blackflow | unbuntu732: I have no idea why that is, I suspect the opengl+xorg integration being the cause. But, I know from direct experience (and there are objective benchmarks on the net) that games that run fast on high settings in Windows, run poor on LOW settings in Linux on the same machine. | 11:05 |

| unbuntu732 | So basically, to really play all the games I have to deal with Microsoft's BS | 11:07 |
| blackflow | unbuntu732: unfortunately | 11:08 |
| blackflow | unbuntu732: unless the games you want are significantly underspeced for your hardware | 11:08 |
| Ben64 | depends on the games really | 11:08 |
| Ben64 | many steam games work great in linux now | 11:09 |
| Dishonored | Ben64 just said it..i play TF2 its pretty smooth with an AMD graphics card | 11:09 |
| blackflow | I have yet to find one, published after 2009 | 11:09 |
| Ben64 | you should check steam sometime | 11:10 |
| deliveryman | does anyone know if you should or shouldnt reformat ssd drives? i wana install ubuntu but ive read that you shouldnt reformat ssds but instead secure erase them? anyone know anything about this? id appreciate it | 11:10 |
| blackflow | unless, as I said, you have hardware that's significantly stronger than what the game requires. | 11:10 |
| blown | i installed goat simulator | 11:10 |
| Dishonored | unbuntu732, try steam, they also have a custom graphics setting for some games | 11:10 |
| Ben64 | blackflow: that is wrong, and makes no sense | 11:10 |
| blackflow | Ben64: it's personal experience from many games, and eh.... http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=mordor-win10-linux&num=2 | 11:10 |
| Ben64 | yes, that is one game that has a bad port | 11:11 |
| blackflow | that's exactly what I see on games that run in Win and Linux, on the SAME machine. | 11:11 |
| unbuntu732 | I'll try and get steam again in a few minutes, but I'm on my windows half right now. | 11:11 |
| unbuntu732 | So I can't really try yet | 11:11 |
| Dishonored | unbuntu732, get steam, highly recommened! | 11:12 |
| unbuntu732 | I have steam on my windows side, but it's not showing in the shop on my linux | 11:12 |
| unbuntu732 | Because my linux side is a 15.04 | 11:12 |
| unbuntu732 | not the 14.04 | 11:12 |
| blackflow | Bioshock Infinte craps out. Serious Sam needs very low settings. X-Com has extremely poor framerate even on lowest settings. Left4Dead drops framerate after a minute and doesn't recover ..... | 11:12 |
| Ben64 | steam works fine in 15.04 | 11:12 |
| blackflow | unbuntu732: the store sucks on 15.04. Use the command line, there's steam on 15.04 I'm running it | 11:13 |
| blown | what hardware do you use | 11:13 |
| Dishonored | unbuntu732, you can get a .deb from steam website | 11:13 |
| unbuntu732 | well, my processor is an amd 3.5ghz 6 cores and a radeon r7 200 GPU. | 11:13 |
| Dishonored | you are ready to go | 11:14 |
| blown | i did the deb | 11:14 |
| unbuntu732 | I've got plenty of ram, but I think I should have poured more cash into my GPU | 11:14 |
| unbuntu732 | and probably gotten more ghz and less core on my processor | 11:14 |
| blown | :] | 11:14 |
| unbuntu732 | first build mistakes I suppose | 11:14 |
| blown | how many ramz did you get? | 11:15 |
| blackflow | unbuntu732: you can hardly get more ghz than that | 11:15 |
| unbuntu732 | at first? 4 | 11:15 |
| unbuntu732 | but then at christmas I got another 8 | 11:15 |
| blown | -,- | 11:15 |
| unbuntu732 | so I have enough ram | 11:15 |
| unbuntu732 | 12 ramz is good I think | 11:15 |
| Dishonored | did u built it yourself? you can always change GPU... | 11:15 |
| Ben64 | and as for the "no games after 2009" nonsense, there are somewhere around 1300 games showing up on steam as linux compatible with a release date of >=2010 | 11:15 |
| unbuntu732 | I did build it myself, yes. | 11:15 |
| Dishonored | nice | 11:15 |
| unbuntu732 | But I picked a crappy mobo I think. | 11:15 |
| blown | u picked amd | 11:16 |
| unbuntu732 | since it doesn't have enough pci/es | 11:16 |

| linxiaoxiang | ok | 11:36 |
| linxiaoxiang | cannot connect to https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/ | 11:38 |
| Ben64 | linxiaoxiang: sounds like a problem with your internet | 11:39 |
| linxiaoxiang | our coutry kill the website | 11:39 |
| Ben64 | then maybe you should stick to chromium | 11:39 |
| OerHeks | oh china and chrome :-( bad luck | 11:40 |
| BluesKaj | why? | 11:40 |
| MonkeyDust | I guess duckduckgo is blocked too in China, because it does not 'track' its users | 11:43 |
| habbasi | Does anyone have a PPA for OpenSSL (latest) that's usually up to date? | 11:46 |
| linxiaoxiang | Our country does not allow you to enter the foreign website. | 11:46 |
| OerHeks | habbasi, there is no need for a PPA , as SSL is patched in Ubuntu. | 11:48 |
| habbasi | OerHeks: Actually, with GnuTLS at its current version, and OpenSSL at its current version, with Ubuntu 14.04 | 11:48 |
| MonkeyDust | habbasi but have a look here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=ssl | 11:48 |
| habbasi | There's a serious bug. | 11:49 |
| habbasi | An OpenSSL client won't connect to a GnuTLS server. | 11:49 |

| Ben64 | thats an error, not a bug | 11:54 |
| habbasi | Ben42: It's a bug because they're not compatible and don't cause aborts in many applications. | 11:54 |
| habbasi | Ben42: One of them is implementing stuff wrong. | 11:55 |

| cuddylier | Anyone know why my box stops starting at http://i.imgur.com/yuKxQa4.png ? | 11:55 |
| habbasi | Ben42: Which is GnuTLS. So it's a GnuTLS bug in the Ubuntu 14.04 package. | 11:55 |
| Ben64 | ...no | 11:55 |
| habbasi | Ben42: :/ | 11:56 |
| Ben64 | the problem is the irc server is not configured properly | 11:56 |

| kokut | Dunno if this is the right place to ask but is there some package names that start with php56 ? in the ubuntu repos? I'm getting only php-5 ? | 14:47 |
| Dorf | has anyone had a good experience dual booting ubuntu with win 10? | 14:47 |
| kokut | dorf what do you need win 10 for? forget about that shiet | 14:48 |
| Dorf | so that's a no? | 14:48 |
| cfhowlett | Dorf, depending on your machine specs and use case, consider my setup: ubuntu 14.04 + virtualbox + windows for those rare times when I need MS Word | 14:49 |

| cfhowlett | Hercules, don't be silly. you have internet. download. | 14:50 |
| Hercules | Everyone doesn't have fast internet. | 14:50 |
| Dorf | i have a large steam library that mostly is not compatible with linux so i want to keep windows as an os. i'm a web dev and i prefer to do my development on linux or mac. since my personal laptop is not a mac, i want to dual boot a linux distro and i want that distro to be ubuntu. make more sense? | 14:50 |
| cfhowlett | Hercules, doesn't need to be fast. start a torrent. you'll get it. | 14:50 |
| Hercules | cfhowlett: In an year? | 14:51 |
| Hercules | cfhowlett: It'll take an year T.T | 14:51 |

| alimj | Clear the screen | 16:22 |
| wileee | alimj, Run the command again, we need details. | 16:22 |
| alimj | wileee: It only happens during "apt-get dist-upgrade" | 16:22 |
| wileee | if it is erroring it still should | 16:22 |
| alimj | It is not error. Just a warning | 16:23 |
| wileee | alimj, 3rd time run it again, we need to see the warning | 16:23 |
| alimj | I will "apt-get install" a new package to force it to show the warning message | 16:24 |
| wileee | no no, are you sure the error does not show with an update and dist-upgrade? | 16:24 |
| alimj | wileee: The errors shows after each new package is installed or old packages are updated | 16:25 |
| wileee | alimj, So that is a yes? | 16:25 |
| alimj | It appears I can not replicate the error. Maybe I will be back next time. Thanks wileee | 16:26 |

| k1l_ | sandah: its the same codebase. so the kernels are the same etc. | 16:48 |
| k1l_ | !mini | sandah | 16:48 |
| ubottu | sandah: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 16:48 |

| k1l_ | no, trusty is not EOL | 17:39 |
| Gallomimia | well the up-to-dateness of the quassel packages in trusty are being treated like it's EOL | 17:39 |
| ObrienDave | Gallomimia, you might have to use the PPA method. but that is not supported here | 17:39 |
| Gallomimia | i think i can figure that out | 17:40 |
| k1l_ | Gallomimia: well, that is nothing new, that the LTS release doesnt get the latest versionnumbers after its relased | 17:40 |
| Gallomimia | the lovely thing about an open source community is we could remedy that issue. | 17:40 |
| k1l_ | Gallomimia: if you are a hunter for the latest version numbers, LTS is not the right choice then | 17:40 |
| Gallomimia | one problem i've been meaning to look up is how to work with packages and apt with less blindness and more knowledge. can anyone suggest a place to start reading? | 17:41 |
| stack12 | than whats the point of lts | 17:41 |
| ObrienDave | stack12, long term stability | 17:41 |
| k1l_ | stack12: beeing a stable base that doesnt change for a long time. | 17:41 |
| stack12 | if nothing changes then you aren't getting support | 17:41 |
| stack12 | it should have the new packages | 17:41 |
| ObrienDave | *face palms* | 17:41 |
| k1l_ | stack12: what? sorry but that doesnt make any sense | 17:41 |
| pauljw | lol | 17:42 |
| Gallomimia | this is my point: the ubuntu people publish kernel updates twice a week! and some of them break userspace. for shame. but you want to argue that a piece of userspace software doesn't need to get updates for half a year? | 17:42 |
| Gallomimia | LTS stands for long term support. not long term stability. | 17:42 |
| ObrienDave | *face palms again* | 17:42 |
| stack12 | support being new packages | 17:42 |
| k1l_ | stack12: LTS is getting updates, but only for security updates and heavy bugfixes. not just because there is a new version number out there | 17:42 |
| Gallomimia | ubuntu doesn't have stability. so stop dreaming. | 17:42 |
| kostkon | Gallomimia, the future snappy based versions of ubuntu will take care of that, at the moment your choices would be: to upgrade to 15.04-15.10, find and use a ppa or compile it yourself | 17:42 |
| k1l_ | stack12: that is just false. | 17:42 |
| k1l_ | Gallomimia: please read the facts first before you make such harsh (and insulting) statements. | 17:43 |
| wileee | Gallomimia, Sorry about that I was thinking 14.10, my mistake | 17:45 |
| stack12 | this is what they say about lts A Feature-Based Release: We will focus on hardening functionality of existing features, versus introducing new ones1, except for in the areas of Online Services and Desktop Experience2. So your desktop apps should get updates | 17:45 |
| Gallomimia | k1l_: i'm not reading facts. i'm talking about my personal experience using ubuntu. the reason i still use it is because it has tons of software packaged and things tend to work more easily with say.... video drivers and games and stuff. but stable? that's debian. i don't like having no kernel updates for months and months and months. ubuntu is better. that's not an insult. | 17:46 |
| ObrienDave | *blinks* | 17:46 |
| Gallomimia | now, this is not a place for arguments and discussions about "better" it's a place for problems and solutions | 17:47 |
| kostkon | Gallomimia, true | 17:47 |
| k1l_ | just wow *sigh* | 17:47 |
| Gallomimia | so. one solution is to download a new version from a ppa. another solution could be to get those packages in the LTS repo updated. is that possible? I'm willing to do some work and learn how and help out | 17:48 |
| daftykins | Gallomimia: no we are not going to have someone update he packages just for you. | 17:48 |
| k1l_ | !sru | Gallomimia | 17:48 |
| ubottu | Gallomimia: Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates | 17:48 |

| ObrienDave | PPA installs are NOT supported here | 17:48 |
| kostkon | Gallomimia, they do provide a ppa on their download page http://quassel-irc.org/downloads | 17:48 |
| nbusrone | Brightness reset when I restart the pc , ubuntu 14.04 using nivida driver.How do I manually set them ? | 17:49 |
| k1l_ | Gallomimia: but "i want new version numbers!" is not an argument to break the LTS repos. | 17:49 |
| kostkon | Gallomimia, but after you install it you'll lose support for that app in here | 17:49 |
| Gallomimia | kostkon: ok. the old program crashes when i try to do X. is that a reason to "break" the LTS repos? | 17:49 |
| ObrienDave | *no feeding trolls* | 17:49 |
| k1l_ | Gallomimia: if its a bug, file a bug on launchpad or contribute to the bugreport if there is already one. | 17:50 |
| kostkon | Gallomimia, the ppa only provides one package it's not going to break your system | 17:50 |
| kostkon | Gallomimia, it only provides quassel | 17:50 |
| daftykins | Gallomimia: just because something doesn't work for you doesn't mean it's 100% true of the package | 17:50 |
| Gallomimia | okay okay. but it does indeed feel very weird trying to submit bug reports on versions that were abandoned by the app developer more than half a year ago. | 17:51 |
| k1l_ | Gallomimia: that is why its LTS. the ubuntu community provides the support. | 17:51 |
| ObrienDave | *face palms again and again and again......* | 17:51 |
| ViperZ | I would like to chat with someone about completely transitioning from Windows to Linux - I started working with Linux back in the late 90's however drawn back into Windows as that is the corporate norm - if anyone wants to discuss shoot me a msg | 17:51 |
| k1l_ | Gallomimia: that sounds just like you dont know about the LTS idea. but when you dont want to read or learn anyway, we can stop it right here. | 17:52 |
| ObrienDave | ViperZ, you can discuss that in #ubuntu-offtopic | 17:52 |
| Gallomimia | k1l_: i'm starting to think you're more and more right about that. the last time i moved forward from LTS, it did indeed lose a lot of "stability" | 17:52 |
| ObrienDave | this is becomming offtopic. Gallomimia do you have any SPECIFIC support questions or issues? | 17:53 |
| Gallomimia | nope. i'm going to work on that ppa solution | 17:53 |
| ViperZ | Thank you ObrienDave | 17:54 |

| muculus | I have performance issue with aufs for millions of files. The mount command is: sudo mount -t aufs -o br=/home/files1=rw:/home/files2=rw -o udba=reval -o create=rr none /home/files3 | 18:21 |

| banana_lover | can I mont ufs from freebsd 10.1 on ubuntu? | 18:29 |
| lucas-arg | hello all | 18:30 |
| daftykins | hi | 18:31 |
| bhanz | banana_lover: yes | 18:31 |
| banana_lover | http://askubuntu.com/questions/85154/mount-ufs-filesystem | 18:31 |
| banana_lover | is this accurate? | 18:31 |
| banana_lover | sudo mount -r -t ufs -o ufstype=ufs2 /dev/sdb1 /home/<your_username>/ufs_mount | 18:32 |
| Gallomimia | banana_lover: looks pretty good to me. an interesting place to mount it but it'll work. you need to make the empty dir ufs_mount | 18:39 |
| banana_lover | can the latest swi prolog be compiled on freebsd 10.1? | 18:39 |
| Gallomimia | that's probably better to ask in #freebsd | 18:40 |
| daftykins | banana_lover: notice that this is an #ubuntu channel so that question is ridiculous here | 18:40 |
| nbusrone | Brightness reset when I restart the pc , ubuntu 14.04 using nivida driver.How do I manually set them ? | 18:40 |
| banana_lover | oops wrong chan | 18:40 |
| Gallomimia | nbusrone: that's an interesting problem. I use the same drivers and ubuntu version, and brightness doesn't give me troubles. perhaps your monitor doesn't like ubuntu? | 18:41 |
| Gallomimia | i also have a strange thing where the monitor loses connection to the pulse-audio whenever the screen locks. might be similar | 18:41 |
| daftykins | audio and brightness queries? mmm no? :) | 18:42 |
| nbusrone | Gallomimia : it auto reset my brightness setting at nvidia randomly , like copy , open a youtube through browser and other else. How do I add on xorg to overwrite the brightness ? | 18:43 |
| Gallomimia | i don't see any brightness settings in my OS | 18:43 |
| k1l_ | that is more of an acpi issue. some BIOS reset the brightness to choosen levels while boot | 18:44 |
| minimec | nbusrone: that should help... http://askubuntu.com/questions/480579/brightness-resets-on-boot-reboot-in-ubuntu-14-04 | 18:44 |
| daftykins | nbusrone: is this a laptop? | 18:46 |
| nbusrone | minimec : the answer is to update . | 18:46 |
| nbusrone | daftykins : desktop with GTx550 nvidia | 18:46 |
| daftykins | nbusrone: then there's no such thing as brightness controlled by the OS. | 18:46 |
| Pendrag0n1 | so when I type "screen -list" it returns one, that is "(Multi, attached)" and promptly says "There is no screen to be resumed." I know this is because I am already attached, and I know I can simply type in "screen -x [ID]" to reattach anyways, but is there a shortcut around this? A line I can put in my .screenrc file that will allow me attach to already attached screens? | 18:47 |
| daftykins | screen -rd no? | 18:47 |
| Pendrag0n1 | let me try | 18:49 |
| Pendrag0n1 | ahh, thank you | 18:49 |
| Pendrag0n1 | ah no, that detatches the other one on the other monitor dafykins | 18:50 |
| daftykins | so what are you trying to achieve? have two on the same instance? | 18:50 |
| daftykins | i don't see why you would want to be on the same thing from two places :) | 18:51 |
| daftykins | just drop the d, since that's detach | 18:51 |
| daftykins | i'm sure there's more to it than that though | 18:51 |
| nbusrone | daftykins : I change my brightness at Nvidia server setting - DFP0 - Color correction - Brightness and confirm to -30.But it get reset randomly and I need to open nvidia setting again . Using nvidia binary 352.21 | 18:52 |
| Pendrag0n1 | I am using screen for work, I use six monitors, I want to tail logs on other montiors, anywho, I have a bashrc shortcut "alias x='screen -x'" which works normally, but only once, once I am attached, I can't do it on other putty shells without detaching the other ones | 18:52 |
| daftykins | nbusrone: i have no idea why you would want to mess with those settings. at login, you need to auto run something like "nvidia-settings -l" to have it parse the values you've set. | 18:53 |
| Pendrag0n1 | just trying to figure out if there is a way to attach anyways, without detaching the other ones, I mean, I know there is a way, I was just wondering if there was a shorter, one liner, so I can place it in my .screenrc or modify my bashrc alias | 18:53 |
| daftykins | or run the tool with gksu so you can write them permanently to your xorg.conf | 18:53 |
| EriC^^ | Pendrag0n1: grab the multi id and pass it to screen -x | 18:54 |
| EriC^^ | screen -x $(screen -list | grep awk whatever floats your boat) | 18:55 |
| nbusrone | daftykins : Nvidia already at the startup application command : sh -c '/usr/bin/nvidia-settings --load-config-only' | 18:56 |
| daftykins | nbusrone: then perhaps it's not working. | 18:57 |
| daftykins | nbusrone: but i did tell you more than one thing... | 18:57 |
| nbusrone | daftykins : yeh ? what would it be ? | 18:57 |
| daftykins | reboot and test it by running it manually as your user | 18:58 |
| daftykins | use your head :) | 18:58 |
| daftykins | still don't know why you use the graphics settings to adjust brightness - that's a monitor thing ¬_¬ | 18:58 |
| === dearn_ is now known as dearn | ||
| nbusrone | daftykins : monitor ? sorry newbie to ubuntu. Maybe i try to update my driver and software kernel . Will report back again tomorrow :) thanks for the help :) | 19:00 |
| daftykins | nbusrone: yeah - the display, you change brightness there... not in the OS | 19:01 |
| soumya_ | hi | 19:01 |
| nbusrone | daftykins : and it get reset randomly | 19:01 |
| daftykins | nbusrone: i'm talking about physical controls on your _monitor_ | 19:02 |
| daftykins | i don't think you understand me | 19:02 |
| nbusrone | daftykins : sorry for the less understanding , you mean setting the monitor physical brightness rather than software ? becasue it's much easier to adjust the brightness when watching at a player rather than adjust physical on the monitor. | 19:06 |
| nbusrone | daftykins : will report back again tomorrow thanks for the help :) gtg | 19:07 |
| Alhe | does anyone know of any freeware that'll recover files from a damaged filesystem | 19:12 |
| EriC^^ | yes | 19:12 |
| Unrelated | Hello. | 19:13 |
| bekks | Alhe: Which filesystem type? | 19:13 |
| user321 | @Alhe i heard for testdisk, scalpel but you need to google about it | 19:13 |
| daftykins | !testdisk | 19:14 |
| daftykins | we need a factoid :> | 19:14 |
| Unrelated | When I use apt-get install (insert prog/app here) where does that program get installed to? | 19:14 |
| Alhe | bekks ntfs | 19:14 |
| daftykins | Unrelated: depends on the program. | 19:14 |
| AppAraat | hi everyone, has anyone here experimented or is using Kwin? I'm thinking of installing it in an Ubuntu 14.04 minimal VM to check it out. Would you consider Kwin to be stable to use on the desktop? | 19:14 |
| Alhe | user321 i'll look into that | 19:14 |
| user321 | Unrelated: if instaled by user in /usr/bin i guess | 19:14 |
| Fuchs | AppAraat: standalone? | 19:14 |
| Unrelated | so there's no like, base directory where everything gets put into? | 19:14 |
| Fuchs | AppAraat: I mean ... most KDE users use it, daily | 19:15 |
| wileee | Unrelated, You got it, what is the interest? | 19:15 |
| Unrelated | For instance, I installed xchat and want to add a script to it. | 19:15 |
| AppAraat | Fuchs: yep standalone, I pretty much only need the Expo and Scale feature of the Cinnamon DE. I'm not exactly interested in other features of KDE also. | 19:15 |
| daftykins | Unrelated: you should use hexchat instead, i think xchat is ancient now | 19:15 |
| k1l_ | Unrelated: scripts are going to be added into the .xchat folder in your home folder | 19:16 |
| Fuchs | AppAraat: well, it should work *shrug* | 19:16 |
| Unrelated | okay, there is an .xchat folder in home? | 19:16 |
| Fuchs | AppAraat: maybe compiz will work better as it was more intended to be used stand alone, but then it isn't really maintained outside of unity any more, so ... | 19:16 |
| daftykins | Unrelated: if you want to locate a program path, then you can try "which xchat" in the terminal - but perhaps such programs support configs being placed in their user config folder? i.e. something like ~/.xchat/blah | 19:16 |
| k1l_ | Unrelated: did you look for it? | 19:17 |
| user321 | Unrelated: in moust programs that you want to add scipts its /home folder then in home folder you create or its created by itself .(dot hidden folder) that you need to put script in | 19:17 |
| Unrelated | I'm looking around now | 19:18 |
| Unrelated | it shows /usr/bin/xchat | 19:18 |
| Unrelated | when I pull up usr/bin there is no xchat folder. | 19:18 |
| k1l_ | Unrelated: you dont add scripts to the program | 19:18 |
| daftykins | Unrelated: no because that's the binary | 19:18 |
| k1l_ | Unrelated: we told you to look into your home folder. | 19:18 |
| Unrelated | so /home? | 19:19 |
| user321 | Unrelated: if you want to delete binary or something you go in user/bin | 19:19 |
| k1l_ | Unrelated: yes | 19:19 |
| Unrelated | nothing there. Also, thank you all for your help, I appreciate it. | 19:19 |
| user321 | Unrelated: if you want to change something you mage file in your home folder like .xchatrc | 19:19 |
| AppAraat | Fuchs: hmm, that's interesting as well. Since it's being maintained for Unity that means that Ubuntu team is working on it, so integration should be more "harmonized". Can I use it standalone on an Ubuntu minimal install? | 19:20 |
| user321 | Unrelated: or in moust likely .xchat folder add something | 19:20 |
| Unrelated | heh. So hexchat is better for irc chatting? | 19:20 |
| user321 | Unrelated: hexchat is being updated by comunity | 19:20 |
| Fuchs | AppAraat: probably. Try installing it and running it with --replace to replace your current window manager. | 19:20 |
| k1l_ | Unrelated: did you start xchat already? | 19:20 |
| user321 | Unrelated: xcaht not | 19:21 |
| Fuchs | AppAraat: chances are that it is packaged in a way that has unwanted dependencies, mind (but then kwin, the not-5 variant, does too. So if you want to use kwin standalone, use the Qt5 based one) | 19:21 |
| Unrelated | I'm using xchat now. It's how I am here. | 19:21 |
| user321 | Unrelated: im trying thunderbirds chat | 19:21 |
| k1l_ | Unrelated: so there is a .xhcat folder in your users home 100% | 19:21 |
| k1l_ | *.xchat | 19:21 |
| Unrelated | how do I bring that folder up in the gui? | 19:22 |
| user321 | Unrelated, k1l_: if you cannto see it press ctrl+h to unhide . folders | 19:22 |
| k1l_ | have you enabled to view "hidden folders"? | 19:22 |
| Unrelated | I <3 you guys | 19:22 |
| k1l_ | press ctrl+h if not. | 19:22 |
| daftykins | love isn't appropriate to being handed answers :P | 19:22 |
| k1l_ | Unrelated: folders and files starting with a "." like ".xchat" are hidden by default. | 19:23 |
| Unrelated | it was the ctrl + h that I was missing. | 19:23 |
| user321 | Unrelated: remeber adding something to programms in ubuntu is usualy by .rc file in home folder or . dot folder in home folder | 19:23 |
| Unrelated | there is a plugin that I wanted to add to xchat that allows me to right-click send/display my sys info. | 19:24 |
| user321 | anyways anyone else using mozzilathunderbird for irc chat any expirience | 19:24 |
| varwachas | hello,I have just installed elementary-os on my ubuntu 14.04 to try out pantheon,But now I need to switch back | 19:24 |
| AppAraat | Fuchs: ah thanks for the heads-up there. One feature which I would love, but not sure if it is present in said WMs, is the ability to "tag" windows. So suppose you have a terminal window open which you solely use for monitoring or updating. You just tag the window "update" or "monitor". Then, when you want to switch to that window (from which ever workspace), simply enter the beginning of that window tag in | 19:24 |
| AppAraat | the search bar and switch to it. | 19:24 |
| Unrelated | and I didn't want the file just hanging out in a random folder, I wanted to put it in the xchat folder. | 19:24 |
| k1l_ | Unrelated: there where you got that script, there should have been an README or howto install that script | 19:25 |
| Unrelated | which I couldn't find. | 19:25 |
| varwachas | Can anyone help? I just did purge, still it doesn't work | 19:25 |
| Fuchs | AppAraat: there are two features in kwin that match that, a bit | 19:25 |
| Fuchs | AppAraat: first of all, you can add a specific keybinding to a window in general | 19:26 |
| qkzoo1978 | What's the best media center solution for ubuntu? I had always heard xbmc, but thought I read somewhere that that project has been changed to something else. | 19:26 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: "install elementary-os on my ubuntu"? | 19:26 |
| daftykins | varwachas: i don't think anything elementary is supported here o0 | 19:26 |
| Fuchs | AppAraat: in addition to that, you could give that terminal a specific title (only works with programs that let the user edit the title, mind. Terminals do) and then use expose and the filter | 19:26 |
| daftykins | varwachas: did it come in via a PPA? try !ppapurge perhaps | 19:26 |
| varwachas | daftykins: Yes exactly, http://askubuntu.com/questions/642190/pantheon-elementary-desktop-not-completely-uninstalling-ubuntu-14-04 | 19:27 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: use ppa-purge to get rid of PPAs you dont want anymore | 19:27 |
| k1l_ | !ppa-purge | varwachas | 19:27 |
| ubottu | varwachas: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 19:27 |
| Unrelated | I will say this. Ubuntu has come a long way in the last decade. | 19:27 |
| Unrelated | I finally decided to make the switch from windows 2 days ago. | 19:28 |

| Traumatizer | Hi Guys. I´ve coupled my TV through HDMI. But I want the sound to output on the TV as well. When I go to Sound Settings I can´t find my TV under Output Devices. Or is there another way to do this? | 19:36 |
| UbuntuFanForever | Hi | 19:36 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: because if you did not you still got the packages in your system. just removing the PPA doesnt remove the packages. thats only done by the ppa-purge command | 19:36 |
| daftykins | Traumatizer: what graphics hardware? | 19:36 |
| UbuntuFanForever | i need help, Since i have Ubuntu installed now is it safe to put Windows 8.1 back in fast startup? | 19:36 |
| Traumatizer | Give me one second daftykins to look that up. | 19:37 |
| k1l_ | UbuntuFanForever: you cant mount the windows partitions then afterwards. | 19:37 |
| varwachas | k1l_: sudo ppa-purge ppa:elementary-os this is what I tried | 19:37 |
| Traumatizer | daftykins ive got: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 0c) | 19:37 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: that is not going to work | 19:37 |
| UbuntuFanForever | kll_ I have a UEFI system.. Would i still be able to boot into windows if i do it? I wouldn't really want to access the windows partition on Ubuntu anyway :3 | 19:37 |
| daftykins | Traumatizer: are you sure that's what you've got HDMI connected? | 19:38 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: "ls -al /etc/apt/sources.list.d" in a pastebin please | 19:38 |
| daftykins | Traumatizer: http://paste.ubuntu.com <-- put "lspci" there would be handy | 19:38 |
| UbuntuFanForever | is the Windows Key on the keyboard also the "Super" key? | 19:39 |
| Traumatizer | daftykins; http://paste.ubuntu.com/12033187/ | 19:39 |
| k1l_ | UbuntuFanForever: yes, on linux its called "super" key | 19:39 |
| UbuntuFanForever | yay | 19:40 |

| daftykins | UbuntuFanForever: the super key is also the 'windows' key ;) | 19:40 |
| UbuntuFanForever | I'm about to ditch this computer in 2 years :D | 19:40 |
| daftykins | Traumatizer: and which ubuntu is this? "cat /etc/issue" or "lsb_release -d" | 19:41 |
| Traumatizer | 14.04.3 LTS | 19:41 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: you didnt read how to use ppa-purge properly | 19:41 |
| Traumatizer | I replaced Unity by Xubuntu daftkins, but that shouldnt change anything i guess | 19:41 |
| UbuntuFanForever | I'm going to get a System76 computer with their payment month-to-month option.. i don't really need windows no more.. I can do everything i do on Ubuntu that i do in windows.. While Windows is now spying on people with windows 10.. o_o | 19:41 |
| menace | can someone recommend a image shower like irfanview, but for ubuntu? | 19:41 |
| royalex | do someone know a fater way to wipe an usb stick than dd? it's taking ages | 19:42 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: sudo ppa-purge ppa:elementary-os/daily | 19:42 |
| daftykins | Traumatizer: hrmm, i'm surprised that a 965 even *has* HDMI, so no idea what's up there i'm afraid - likely xfce lacking in configurability perhaps | 19:42 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: put that into a pastebin please again | 19:42 |
| menace | royalex: wipefs | 19:42 |
| daftykins | royalex: wipe? you don't need to write to the whole thing to get it blanked. | 19:42 |
| Traumatizer | Hmm that sucks. | 19:42 |
| Traumatizer | So basically nothing I can do daftykins? | 19:42 |
| royalex | menace: it will wipe byte of data or it just dereference it? | 19:42 |
| daftykins | Traumatizer: i'm sure someone that knows audio better might have an idea, i don't know my feet from my face when it comes to it :) | 19:43 |
| daftykins | Traumatizer: i was just checking for the easy bit, like driver | 19:43 |
| menace | royalex: sorry, did just look, it's the wrong program | 19:43 |
| royalex | ok thanks anyway :) | 19:43 |
| Traumatizer | Okay, can I like file a bug report or something? Or request for hwardre support, something like that | 19:43 |
| royalex | daftykins: well.. actually i need a REAL wipe since i have a REALLY sensitive data on there | 19:44 |
| daftykins | Traumatizer: well it might just need configuring | 19:44 |
| varwachas | k1l_: sorry, here is the pastebin link http://paste.ubuntu.com/12033225/ | 19:44 |
| daftykins | royalex: then no, a good 'dd' zero fill at least twice is the order of the day | 19:44 |
| Traumatizer | Imma google around a bit somre more than | 19:44 |
| daftykins | Traumatizer: if you play around with "aplay -l" and "aplay -L" in the terminal it should show up the device at least :) | 19:45 |
| royalex | daftykins: oh ok... i just wondered cause it is taking AGES | 19:45 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: how did you disable that PPA? | 19:46 |
| royalex | daftykins: it's writing like at 130 kbps | 19:46 |
| daftykins | royalex: then it's either a rubbish drive or there's a config issue, are you checking with kill -USR1? | 19:46 |
| royalex | yup wit sudo kill -USR1 $(pgrep ^dd) | 19:47 |
| daftykins | mmhmm, not seen a flash drive go that bad | 19:47 |
| varwachas | k1l_: I removed that PPA via add-apt-repository ppa:elementary-os | 19:47 |
| daftykins | check dmesg | tail for any errors perhaps, royalex | 19:47 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: ok, please add it again | 19:47 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: when you added it again, we can use ppa-purge to properly remove it | 19:48 |
| royalex | ok wait i have log in to anoter cli | 19:49 |
| Traumatizer | Ah daftykins I fixed it. | 19:49 |
| daftykins | \o/ | 19:50 |
| Traumatizer | Through alsamixer I could unmute the S/PDIF channel and than pulse audio configuration allowed me to select my TV as output | 19:50 |
| daftykins | ah-har | 19:50 |
| daftykins | didn't think it would be that easy | 19:50 |
| varwachas | k1l_: Done that, what next http://paste.ubuntu.com/12033297/ | 19:53 |
| oal | I don't know if this is a Gnome question or Ubuntu question: Everything on my computer is lagging. Typing in text fields in Firefox, flash videos, typing in intellij idea. Any suggestions? | 19:54 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: ok, so now after a reboot that should have removed everything | 19:54 |
| varwachas_ | k1l_: I have just rebooted but the User Interface isn't the same as before especially the bar above, icons and mouse pointer | 19:58 |
| k1l_ | varwachas_: is it another theme? | 19:58 |
| varwachas_ | k1l_: Dont know, kindly have a look http://imgur.com/BISOWi0 | 19:59 |
| k1l_ | varwachas_: ok. so there is still some settings that were changed by the PPA packages. | 20:00 |
| daftykins | oal: there's one very simple thing worth checking - do you use a mechanical hard disk? is this a laptop or desktop? | 20:01 |
| varwachas_ | k1l_: So what should I do to get back to the original Unity Shell Interface that comes with Ubuntu? | 20:01 |
| k1l_ | varwachas_: try a "unity-tweak-tool --reset-unity" | 20:01 |
| oal | daftykins, I run Ubuntu off an SSD, but I have a mechanical hard disk installed as well | 20:01 |
| oal | It's only used for file storage though. No apps run off it | 20:01 |
| daftykins | oal: ah ok, so not even your /home ? | 20:01 |
| k1l_ | varwachas_: if that doesnt help after a relogin try that answer: http://askubuntu.com/questions/56313/how-do-i-reset-gnome-to-the-defaults | 20:02 |
| oal | daftykins, nope | 20:02 |
| daftykins | oal: ok not much point checking the health of your HDD then, hmm. how's your RAM usage going? | 20:02 |
| utuna | Howdy all | 20:02 |
| JustSighDudes | oal, I have that same problem sometimes. I have no idea what causes it. | 20:03 |
| oal | daftykins, 1.9 / 15.6 GiB according to the system monitor | 20:03 |
| daftykins | :) | 20:03 |
| daftykins | ok, probably more a gnome thing then - never used it | 20:03 |
| oal | CPU usage is all over the place... | 20:04 |
| royalex | sorry i was talking to one of you but i don't remember who :D | 20:04 |
| royalex | daftykins: i was talking with you before right? i forgot the nick i was talking to | 20:05 |
| daftykins | royalex: the queries matter, not the who :) | 20:05 |
| royalex | you know... i had some "problem" with the battery... or better say it was all my fault | 20:06 |
| varwachas | k1l_: unity tweak command didn't work out | 20:06 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: that is one of the big issues with that messy PPAs. they change a lot of stuff and its not reverted on remove. | 20:07 |
| nmatrix9 | Is there a updated wacom control panel GUI for the latest versions of Ubuntu? | 20:07 |
| k1l_ | varwachas: "rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity .cache .dbus .dmrc .mission-control .thumbnails ~/.config/dconf/user ~.compiz*" | 20:08 |

| mixxit | hey guys | 20:09 |
| mixxit | im having trouble booting ubuntu server and wondered if anyone can help | 20:09 |
| mixxit | 14.04.2 | 20:10 |
| daftykins | !details | mixxit | 20:10 |
| ubottu | mixxit: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 20:10 |
| k1l_ | mixxit: depends on the exact error | 20:10 |
| mixxit | its not getting to grub unless i manually choose to select boot device in bios | 20:10 |
| varwachas_ | k1l_: no use | 20:10 |
| k1l_ | mixxit: so write the grub into the MBR of the first HHD that gets booted? | 20:10 |
| LongFeng | The earth king has invited you to lake Laogai. | 20:10 |
| Caerdwyn | Quick question for anyone here... why do the icons in the unity status bar sometimes become transparent, as if they're hidden behind the bar? I can't click on them or interact with them in any way, and at times when I kill the program that makes the icon and relaunch it, the ghosted icon vanishes, then reappears transparent again... | 20:10 |
| mixxit | is that update-grub? | 20:11 |
| k1l_ | mixxit: no, that is grub-install | 20:11 |
| mixxit | ok | 20:11 |
| varwachas_ | k1l_: still the same, my terminal is also still the same, shortcuts aren't working also | 20:11 |
| k1l_ | varwachas_: is it ok on another user account or guest account? | 20:11 |
| utuna | Hello mixxit | 20:13 |
| varwachas__ | k1l_: Even guest has the user interface all messed up | 20:13 |
| k1l_ | varwachas__: that reminds me again why i hate all that ubuntu spinoff messes | 20:14 |
| Caerdwyn | for anyone wondering what i mean, http://i.imgur.com/3mtKTLa.png | 20:14 |
| varwachas__ | k1l_: Even I feel the same now | 20:14 |
| varwachas__ | k1l_: So is there any other way of getting back other than a reinstall(loss of data) | 20:15 |
| joe4 | I can't seem to get the gnome terminal session preferences to open up, any thoughts? | 20:16 |
| pauljw | Caerdwyn, I can't answer to why this happens, but I have encountered the same on my system. For me, if I switch to a different virtual desktop and back again, the icons return to normal. | 20:16 |
| k1l_ | varwachas__: hmm. you could dig into all the gnome settings and libs stuff where the elementary stuff did the changes. but i am not aware of what they all changed | 20:16 |
| Caerdwyn | pauljw: virtual desktop meaning another workspace, or to a tty and back? | 20:16 |
| pauljw | Caerdwyn, another workspace | 20:17 |
| k1l_ | varwachas__: as my last idea: open unity-tweak-tool and set the themes and panel things manually. if that doesnt work i dont know what to do. | 20:17 |
| Caerdwyn | pauljw: alrighty, thanks... much appreciated! | 20:17 |
| pauljw | np | 20:17 |
| * k1l_ needs to leave for a bit now anyway | 20:17 | |
| mixxit | ok did that | 20:17 |
| mixxit | but its still going to network boot | 20:17 |
| === erkan^ is now known as zippo^ | ||
| utuna | Be well k1l_ | 20:18 |
| Caerdwyn | pauljw: tried that, the icon only appears for a split second when the actual workspace switch occurs, then immediately disappears/becomes transparent again :\ | 20:19 |
| zippo^ | who does use with Gnome Classic? | 20:19 |
| zippo^ | How can I add icon and menu of Thunderbird in menu (alacarte) ? | 20:19 |
| zippo^ | after I have downloaded and installed Thunderbird of the officiaĺ Mozilla | 20:20 |
| pauljw | Caerdwyn, hmmm. Don't know what to tell you. Wish I knew what caused it myself. | 20:20 |
| Caerdwyn | In this particular case, it's TeamViewer running that has its icon hidden, but I've also seen it happen with other things like Skype, PS3 Media Server, even Synergy, it's so weird. | 20:21 |
| wileee | zippo^, What happened to the ubuntu thunderbird? | 20:22 |
| zippo^ | a wait, i make a screenshot, wileee | 20:22 |
| wileee | zippo^, No I asked a question | 20:22 |
| royalex | daftykins: i resolved tweaking the buffer size, thanks for the help you gave me :) | 20:23 |
| pauljw | Caerdwyn, it is a weird problem, on my system, the entire launch bar goes opaque, looks like a program screen would look if the system was working on something for a time. | 20:23 |

| Caerdwyn | pauljw: the only thing I've even changed on my install related to unity, was downloading the unity tweak tool and setting the transparency of the bar to 100%...think that might have something to do with it maybe? | 20:24 |
| pauljw | Caerdwyn, is that when it started? Try changing back to your original settings. | 20:25 |
| Caerdwyn | I take that back... changing the transparency back to default makes the icon that is "transparent" vanish completely; it becomes obscured by the panel itself | 20:25 |
| zippo^ | wileee, http://picpaste.com/pics/Schermafdruk_van_2015-08-08_22_22_22-WOQLZmGd.1439065524.png | 20:25 |
| Caerdwyn | pauljw: no, this has been happening for a while now, even when I was on 12.04... I'm on 14.04.2 now and it still does it | 20:25 |
| zippo^ | I did add icon, then I did OK, later was he removed | 20:25 |
| pauljw | Caerdwyn, i see. | 20:26 |
| wileee | zippo^, What happened to the ubuntu thunderbird? | 20:26 |
| zippo^ | I did Thunderbird in /opt/thunderbird and icon ia /opt/thunderbird/icons, etc. | 20:26 |
| zippo^ | I cannot move thunderbird to another menu and cannot add icon, wileee | 20:26 |
| wileee | zippo^, What happened to the ubuntu thunderbird? | 20:27 |
| zippo^ | what mean you? | 20:27 |
| markoo_ | Hello I'm trying to use terminator terminal. How do I get to split it into two tabs (vertically) by command line? | 20:27 |
| k1l_ | he did manually install thunderbird | 20:27 |
| wileee | yes, just trying to get what happened | 20:27 |
| Caerdwyn | pauljw: turning transparency to 100% and background blur off in tweak tool make the icon visible in the panel, but isn't able to be interacted with, it looks like it's just hiding behind it | 20:27 |
| Caerdwyn | makes* | 20:28 |
| zippo^ | than is he removed | 20:28 |

| zippo^ | webmail, brabbit | 20:30 |
| Fuchs | john_doe_jr: pstree could list the parent, my guess is: an init script or something like monit | 20:30 |
| Fuchs | john_doe_jr: if you didn't install anything special, apache is the likely candidate | 20:30 |
| k1l_ | ubuntu681: you will need to find a PPA with a higher version | 20:30 |
| ubuntu681 | there is a .tar.bz2 package in the website, but i don't know how to install it. | 20:31 |
| john_doe_jr | Fuchs: I know it's apache but I just don't know what program is running it | 20:32 |
| Fuchs | as said, either it is started to respawn, then use the init script (as you should) to stop it | 20:33 |
| k1l_ | ubuntu681: it ships a README which explains. but you are on your own then with that | 20:33 |
| Fuchs | if not, there might be something like monit running which restarts it | 20:33 |

| === Eggs is now known as Guest23483 | ||
| stevecoh1 | ok, eric, I didn't have grub installed at all until I developed this kernel problem several months ago. I installed grub, and this is what I got. | 21:02 |
| stevecoh1 | my machine is 64-bit | 21:02 |
| stevecoh1 | What should I do about this? I am trying to solve a simple problem and keep getting deeper and deeper into trouble. | 21:03 |
| === owner is now known as Guest8834 | ||
| stevecoh1 | why does dpkg show 3 different grubs installed? | 21:04 |
| EriC^^ | stevecoh1: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 and paste the link here | 21:04 |
| EriC^^ | stevecoh1: the grub-efi is removed and just has the config files | 21:05 |
| EriC^^ | you have grub cause i think you used sudo apt-get install grub to install it ( should have used grub-pc ) | 21:05 |
| EriC^^ | grub-common are just the common files, | 21:05 |
| TJ- | (or grub2) | 21:05 |
| Dusti[n] | Im on my phone so that might be hard ill try and give you the jist of it | 21:05 |
| stevecoh1 | $ sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 | 21:06 |
| stevecoh1 | [sudo] password for scohen: | 21:06 |
| stevecoh1 | http://termbin.com/1ab3 | 21:06 |
| EriC^^ | stevecoh1: ok, well you're using uefi, so you need to install grub-efi , sudo apt-get install grub-efi-amd64 | 21:06 |
| skinofstars | hey gang. i'm trying to make a .sh script run in terminal with a double click, but the terminal isn't available in the file's properties | 21:06 |
| stevecoh1 | will this automatically pick up all the installed kernels? | 21:07 |
| EriC^^ | yes | 21:07 |
| TJ- | skinofstars: Because it is a shell script not a terminal script... shell scripts (.sh) are executed by sh/dash; or .bash scripts by bash | 21:07 |
| skinofstars | TJ-: fine, but at the moment it opens in gedit | 21:08 |
| Dusti[n] | It looks like its still looking at vivid packages | 21:09 |
| undisclosed | please recommend a command line way of setting the time and timezone | 21:09 |
| EriC^^ | skinofstars: you can create a .desktop file to run it in a terminal, or you'd have to set your filemanager to execute on double click but that would be for all | 21:09 |
| stevecoh1 | my problem is that 3.13.0-46 works, 3.13.0-48 is no good, and 3.13.0-61 is what I want to test. I don't want to blow away my existing configuration unless I am sure I can get back to 46 if necessary. will installing grub-efi insure that I will be able to do that? | 21:10 |
| skinofstars | EriC^^: hmm, ok, i'll google that. thanks | 21:11 |
| k1l_ | Dusti[n]: what gives you "lsb_release -d"? | 21:11 |
| TJ- | skinofstars: that is probably because gedit has been configured as the default application for that file extension, or that mime type | 21:11 |
| EriC^^ | stevecoh1: yes, more so your current setup will not boot | 21:11 |
| Dusti[n] | 15.04 | 21:11 |
| user1254 | undisclosed: have a look at timedatectl | 21:12 |
| therofluser | where is ubuntu one on ubuntu 15.04 ? | 21:12 |
| stevecoh1 | eric^^, so this is safe? I have to be able to get back to 46 if necessary | 21:12 |
| EriC^^ | -.- | 21:12 |
| EriC^^ | yes | 21:13 |
| undisclosed | user1254, thanks, but it is the recommended way or simply one of the 5-6 ways? :) | 21:13 |
| stevecoh1 | and how does it work? Presently I have to type escape repeatedly after booting to see the grub screen. Will that still work? | 21:13 |
| Dusti[n] | All my repositories are vivids | 21:13 |
| Dusti[n] | Though | 21:13 |
| EriC^^ | stevecoh1: you hold shift to get grub | 21:14 |
| stevecoh1 | ok, cool, will give it a try. | 21:14 |
| stevecoh1 | thank you very much Eric^^ | 21:14 |
| EriC^^ | no problem | 21:14 |

| SuperLag | We're using Centrify and it has it's own modified libsmbclient. How do I make other packages that require Ubuntu's stock libsmbclient use the Centrify one instead, so those packages will install? | 21:15 |
| user1254 | undisclosed: depends on what you think of as recommended way. for me i think its the easiest. also 'recommended' way for archlinux | 21:15 |
| SuperLag | because when I try to install gvfs-backends, it says it depends on libsmbclient, and that won't install because it conflicts with the version Centrify provides | 21:16 |
| undisclosed | user1254, thanks | 21:16 |
| Dusti[n] | Sorry i got dc | 21:16 |
| TJ- | SuperLag: Best solution there is to install Centrify's tools and libraries under the /usr/local/ prefix ... then they will take precedence but the Ubuntu standard packages can still install/upgrade without complaining | 21:18 |
| Dusti[n] | Anyidea why my repositories are vivid when im on 15.04? Thats not right is it? | 21:19 |
| k1l_ | Dusti[n]: 15.04 is vivid | 21:19 |
| bekks | Dusti[n]: Why not? :) | 21:19 |
| _Trullo | vivid.com | 21:19 |
| Dusti[n] | Oh | 21:19 |
| Dusti[n] | Well wth is wrong with my computer | 21:20 |
| bekks | Why do you thing there is something wrong at all? | 21:20 |
| k1l_ | Dusti[n]: pastebin a "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" to a pastebinit please | 21:20 |
| Dusti[n] | It basicly will not boot into graphics mode | 21:21 |
| k1l_ | Dusti[n]: so can you run the upgrade in tty1? | 21:21 |
| k1l_ | Dusti[n]: then: what video card is it and what driver is installed? | 21:22 |
| alander_ | :D | 21:22 |
| brenobelem | alander_: :* | 21:22 |
| brenobelem | Aldenice_: :* | 21:22 |
| Aldenice_ | :) | 21:22 |
| daftykins | Dusti[n]: ah you replied to me about this but didn't include my nickname so i head no idea you had done. | 21:23 |
| alander_ | ;D | 21:23 |
| daftykins | Dusti[n]: what do you get when you boot? | 21:23 |
| k1l_ | alander_: Aldenice_ brenobelem this is the ubuntu support channel. please stick to ubuntu support in here. for testing there is ##test and for chat ##chat | 21:23 |
| brenobelem | k1l_: I know that. | 21:24 |
| Dusti[n] | Sorry im on my cellphone trying to irc and its aggravating | 21:24 |
| brenobelem | k1l_: I'm not testing anyting, I'm just showing them the support channels. | 21:24 |
| SuperLag | TJ-: looks like they get put in /opt/centrify | 21:24 |
| daftykins | Dusti[n]: so what led to this? was it a clean 15.04 install or did you upgrade to it? | 21:25 |
| daftykins | an upgrade you said, ok | 21:25 |
| Dusti[n] | Last thing it says daftykins is starting light display manager | 21:25 |
| daftykins | Dusti[n]: ok and can you get a command line login by pressing ctrl+alt+F1, F2 or so on? | 21:26 |
| Dusti[n] | Yes | 21:26 |
| daftykins | Dusti[n]: ok log in and run "sudo apt-get purge nvidia* " (taking note of the * after nvidia there) then reboot | 21:27 |
| Dusti[n] | K | 21:27 |
| Dusti[n] | Daftykins it says 302mb will be removed i hit yes | 21:29 |
| daftykins | ok | 21:29 |
| daftykins | Dusti[n]: take note of what number driver it kills if you see it, nvidia-### | 21:30 |
| daftykins | version number that is, naturally | 21:30 |
| Dusti[n] | Hum i wanna say it was 321 | 21:32 |
| daftykins | 331 perhaps, no bother | 21:32 |
| Dusti[n] | On the reboot i just have a blanke screen | 21:32 |
| daftykins | do you know which card you have? | 21:32 |
| daftykins | log in in the same way if not, then type "lspci" | 21:33 |
| OerHeks | sudo ubuntu-drivers list # or autoinstall :-) | 21:34 |
| daftykins | yip that could work | 21:34 |
| Dusti[n] | No not right off | 21:34 |
| ISK | how's it going? | 21:35 |
| daftykins | ISK: support only, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic :) | 21:35 |
| Dusti[n] | Ok its installing 346 | 21:37 |
| daftykins | ok, pay attention to the module build and check it shows no obvious errors | 21:37 |
| ISK | daftykins: I'm here to serve too, but thanks for advice ;) | 21:38 |
| daftykins | then just a reboot after would do | 21:38 |
| Dusti[n] | I did the autoinstall like oerheks said | 21:38 |
| daftykins | fair enough :> | 21:38 |
| Dusti[n] | Ty very much ill let ya know how it comes out | 21:39 |
| OerHeks | :-) | 21:39 |
| plastic | hello | 21:40 |
| Dusti[n] | Still no desktop just term | 21:43 |
| daftykins | but not hanging on the same lightdm error this time? | 21:44 |
| Dusti[n] | Nope | 21:44 |
| daftykins | well that's different | 21:44 |
| daftykins | Dusti[n]: does your desktop get an internet connection via wired? | 21:44 |
| Dusti[n] | Wireless | 21:45 |
| daftykins | hrmm and yet it managed to get a driver before | 21:45 |
| daftykins | i wonder if it was just in cache | 21:45 |
| Dorf | i'm trying to dual boot ubuntu with win 10 on an SSD. I cleared a partition for Ubuntu and formatted it as ext4. I'm at the install screen and it's been hung at "Preparing to install ubuntu..." for 10 minutes. This has been going on all morning. Any ideas | 21:45 |
| Dorf | ? | 21:45 |
| === PROJAK-SX is now known as RackerJack | ||
| daftykins | Dusti[n]: are you online if you log in at the TTY and try "ping google.com" ? ctrl+C to stop | 21:46 |
| daftykins | Dorf: there was no point preparing that partition beforehand really | 21:46 |
| Dusti[n] | Wait its hung back up there | 21:46 |
| daftykins | hung? | 21:46 |
| Dorf | daftykins: it was a last ditch effort. i've tried everything i could think of or read on the forums | 21:47 |
| daftykins | Dorf: which version are you trying to put on? | 21:47 |
| Dorf | 14.04 x64 via unetbootin | 21:49 |
| daftykins | Dorf: and was 10 installed EFI, or legacy? | 21:49 |
| Dorf | let me check | 21:50 |
| === skcin7 is now known as skcin77 | ||
| Dorf | UEFI | 21:51 |
| === Rebecca is now known as Guest62817 | ||
| daftykins | so are you booting ubuntu in EFI mode? | 21:52 |
| daftykins | !efi | Dorf for more info to check | 21:52 |
| ubottu | Dorf for more info to check: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 21:52 |
| Dorf | i don't know. | 21:52 |
| daftykins | essentially you should be seeing the white text on black background style boot menu | 21:52 |
| Dorf | like grub? | 21:52 |
| daftykins | read the link ;) | 21:53 |
| Dorf | yes... that's what i see | 21:54 |
| daftykins | and what kind of system is this? | 21:54 |
| === skcin77 is now known as lkajdsf | ||
| Dorf | in what regards? | 21:55 |
| daftykins | desktop/laptop/cauliflower | 21:55 |
| Dorf | laptop | 21:55 |
| daftykins | what kind? | 21:55 |
| Dorf | asus g751 | 21:55 |
| daftykins | good lord | 21:56 |
| daftykins | so don't you think it'd make more sense to run the OS it's designed for? if you're really after 'mobile' gaming? | 21:56 |
| === ISK_ is now known as ISK | ||
| x4w3 | i have properly configurated icecast2 + jack +idjc and now i can listen to a film... | 21:58 |
| Dorf | that's why i'm dual booting. regardless of what you think makes more sense, i want a linux distro. if you are unable to help, fine, i understand that nobody has all the answers, but i didn't come here for lectures on what people think i should and should not have on my laptop. | 21:58 |
| x4w3 | :( alsa and alsamixer is ok, and test run but daemons like vlc no | 21:58 |
| daftykins | Dorf: it was just a question, no need for the defensive response | 21:59 |
| Dorf | sorry, but what baring does it have on if/how you can help me? | 21:59 |
| TJ- | Dorf: did you start the installer from the "Try Ubuntu" option and launch the installer from the desktop icon? | 22:00 |
| NilePrince | Hello | 22:00 |
| daftykins | because understanding what you hope to achieve with this system could help in how to make use of it better | 22:00 |
| NilePrince | Helpp Please | 22:00 |
| x4w3 | do someone how recover my sound? after configurate icecast i lose it | 22:00 |
| Dorf | i've tried both with the same result TJ- | 22:00 |
| daftykins | Dorf: so for example, i think if you want to game with it or have it run best - LTS probably isn't the best choice for such hardware. | 22:00 |
| NilePrince | bored system :D | 22:00 |
| TJ- | Dorf: No, I mean right now | 22:00 |
| NilePrince | W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/wallch/3+/ubuntu/dists/vivid/main/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found | 22:00 |
| NilePrince | E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. | 22:00 |
| daftykins | NilePrince: your PPA is probably dead, that's not official so we can't help - maybe find a new one | 22:01 |
| Dorf | daftykins: i'm a web developer. i like to develop in linux. i have a large steam library and most games don't run in linux. i want to boot into linux for work and windows for play | 22:01 |
| Dorf | TJ-: i have tried both and both ways result the same way. right now i am not trying to install because i can't get past the preparing to install screen no matter what i do | 22:02 |
| daftykins | Dorf: ok and what are the two letters after G751 on your model? | 22:02 |
| NilePrince | this for update | 22:02 |
| Dorf | JL | 22:02 |
| TJ- | Dorf: I was hoping you would say yes; when you use the "Try Ubuntu" live environment we can get easy access to the log-files to find out why it's hung up | 22:02 |
| daftykins | Dorf: like TJ- 's getting at, i'd recommend you boot into 'try' to get further info | 22:03 |
| daftykins | but i still think 14.04 is less ideal for a system like that | 22:03 |
| x4w3 | please i have no sound in ubuntu, and speaker test run ok | 22:03 |
| === diveinto0^afk is now known as diveinto0 | ||
| Dorf | what version would you recommend? | 22:04 |
| TJ- | Dorf: There are 2 sets of log files... the 'try' environment and it's "/var/log/" directory, and the installation "/target/var/log/" which is a chroot where the installation is done. I use "ls -latr <dir>" to list the most recently changed logs last, and then check them out for clues as to what happened most recently | 22:04 |
| === t0by is now known as Bronsa``````` | ||
| daftykins | Dorf: 15.04 is the only other supported release currently out | 22:05 |
| koko__ | ist | 22:05 |
| daftykins | Dorf: i think TJ- is up for the challenge though so maybe see how you go first :> | 22:05 |
| TJ- | Dorf: The "debian-installer" keeps quite extensive logs of every step it takes, as does "apt" ... I seem to recall they both create sub-dirs of var/log/ | 22:05 |
| === Bronsa``````` is now known as t0by | ||
| TJ- | daftykins: Dorf Actually I'd recommend installing the LTS, and then if there are any hardware issues (newer drivers required) use the HardWare Enablement stack on top | 22:06 |
| Dorf | i've found a detailed set of instructions for my model | 22:06 |
| daftykins | *nod* fair enough | 22:07 |
| Dorf | i'm going to attempt that | 22:07 |
| TJ- | Dorf: Installing an LTS means you don't have to upgrade (15.04) in a few months when its support ends, after 15.10 is released | 22:07 |
| Dorf | i don't remember it being this difficult when i put it on my desktop | 22:07 |
| TJ- | Dorf: Unlike Windows, Almost everything in Linux *logs* extensively, or can be told to do so, and those system logs are always under /var/log/ | 22:08 |
| x4w3 | i recover it with pavucontrol, i dont know why, alsa something strange... | 22:09 |
| TJ- | Dorf: notebooks/laptops/small devices often have more proprietary hardware and kludges which the manufacturers don't provide to the Linux ecosystem, so we're often playing catch-up as owners of those devices hit bugs and figure out causes and workarounds/fixes | 22:09 |
| akade | why the system that ubuntu uses to recognize other OS in the installation is different from other distros? | 22:09 |
| TJ- | akade: As far as I know os-prober is used to detect other installations | 22:10 |
| * zykotick9 would think ubuntu's grub/os-prober would be pretty up-to-date in the debian-based world... | 22:11 | |
| === lkajdsf is now known as skcin7 | ||
| akade | Ubuntu is the only one that doesn't recognize windows partition, I don't have a logical partition, maybe it's the problem? | 22:12 |
| Nectar | Anyone know any good software (which will work with gnome) to display email notifications in the top menu? | 22:12 |
| zykotick9 | akade: sorry, i personally don't care about windows partition recognition at all... but i wouldn't think primary vs logical/extended would make much of a difference, at least with DOS-MBR... (U)EFI <- and all bets are OFF for me ;) | 22:15 |
| Dorf | i'm really close to just saying to heck with it and booting into a VM | 22:15 |
| akade | i give up with the actual installation system, someone tried to make a manual installation without /swap and /home partition, only using the main /, it can be done? | 22:15 |
| akade | thanks for the replys | 22:15 |
| daftykins | akade: yes | 22:16 |
| daftykins | swap isn't /swap ;) | 22:16 |
| akade | what do you mean? | 22:19 |
| skinux | Quick question. Ubuntu out-of-the-box gives access to Windows drive/partition as long as it has been selected in file browser. What shell command can be used in place of double-clicking in file browser to open access to pre-mounted partitions? | 22:19 |
| daftykins | akade: nevermind. anyway Ubuntu recognises Windows fine as long as you boot into the correct mode, same as how Windows was installed. what did you mean by not logical partition for Windows? | 22:19 |
| daftykins | skinux: they're not mounted until clicked on | 22:20 |
| daftykins | skinux: so they're not pre-mounted, you would use 'mount' ;) | 22:20 |
| skinux | I know. But, I assume the action taken upon click can be done via a shell command as well? | 22:20 |
| TJ- | skinux: "mount" will show you where mounted file-systems are in the directory hierarchy. udisks usually does user mounts, and they are under /media/${USER}/ | 22:20 |
| TJ- | skinux: Yes, you can use "udiskscontrol mount --block-device /dev/sdX5" | 22:21 |
| daftykins | not much benefit to just doing it manually :> | 22:21 |
| zykotick9 | skinux: "sudo mount /dev/sdX# /mnt" (replace X and #) with correct values... then find it in /mnt | 22:21 |
| TJ- | skinux: Typo "udisksctl mount --block-device /dev/sdX5" | 22:21 |
| Shed-34046 | If i boot into Windows and turn on fast startup again will i be able to boot back into windows and Ubuntu whenever? I don't really want to mount the windows partition while on ubuntu :3 | 22:21 |
| skinux | What is the exact command being run when clicking in file browser?? | 22:22 |
| Shed-34046 | nautilus is the filemanager i think? | 22:22 |
| akade | no, it matters, I want to know more, I have installed many distros and I always rebuild the boot with windows cd, now with all the windows insider updates and other stuff... windows have the whole disk and it have all the tags | 22:22 |
| TJ- | skinux: the file browser calls the udisks daemon via the udisks library | 22:22 |
| skinux | In this case Nautilus is file browser, however, I'm considering trying out some other file browsers. | 22:22 |
| TJ- | skinux: In the shell you do the same thing with "udisksctl mount --block-device /dev/sdX5" | 22:22 |
| zykotick9 | skinux: the gui browsers use mount, but they do it dynamically into /media i think... i haven't used nautilus/etc in years... | 22:22 |
| Shed-34046 | Anybody would i still be able to boot into windows and ubuntu if i turn on the fast startup again? | 22:23 |
| TJ- | zykotick9: ^^^ they use udisksd ^^^ | 22:23 |
| zykotick9 | TJ-: and what does udiskd use? or is that systemd's mount? | 22:24 |
| user1254 | Shed-34046: you can boot to ubuntu when fast startup is active in windows but you can't mount the ntfs/windows drives | 22:24 |
| Shed-34046 | ok :) | 22:24 |
| akade | so, why ubuntu doesn't recognize windows? | 22:29 |

| Shed-34046 | wileee and others do you remember the 2012 ad thing on ubuntu.. It was something like save yourself from the trouble that is windows 8. | 22:55 |
| wileee | Guest63328, You can click them on and off, I would not just remove, they add packages, your in a very precarious install, | 22:56 |
| wileee | Shed-34046, We don't answer, 'I think I saw elvis inquiries' | 22:57 |
| zykotick9 | deliveryman: re:ssd, i use SSDs for all "system" (including swap) partitions [i don't expect them to last forever, but i've never had an SSD wear out yet] my ONLY issues is i run encrypted LVM, and have to do manual setting to get fstrim to work (vs using trim in fstab)... i say, use SSD for the speed ;) | 22:59 |
| Guest63328 | and you're saying once I click it off, run that command again/ | 23:00 |
| wileee | Guest63328, No it will automatically update when closing that gui, than test if you can install. | 23:01 |
| Guest63328 | it says " | 23:01 |
| Guest63328 | This is a serious problem. Try again later. If this problem appears again, please report an error to the developers." | 23:01 |
| Guest63328 | And allows me to look at details, you want the details? | 23:02 |
| Guest63328 | in Details, it says "E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/repo.steampowered.com_steam_dists_precise_steam_i18n_Translation-en, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened." | 23:02 |
| wileee | Guest63328, Nah, honestly that is to messed up overall to really stick with you. | 23:02 |
| Guest63328 | What do you mean, is my system broken? | 23:02 |
| wileee | Guest63328, YOU have gobs of 3rd party repos some not even ubuntu. | 23:03 |
| travis__ | Hello all, I'm new to Linux. I installed Steam and have been playing CS:GO for awhile now, but I seem to have audio issues after about 30 minutes of gaming, which requires me to restart my laptop. Any ideas? | 23:04 |
| Guest63328 | And....is there anything I can do about that? | 23:04 |
| travis__ | So far I have done this command: sudo apt-get install oem-audio-hda-daily-dkms | 23:04 |
| wileee | Guest63328, Not you I suspect, IT is just so poorly set up not many are going to touch it, I would guess. None of those 3rd pafrty are supported here as well. | 23:05 |
| travis__ | That threw me the error(?) : Unable to locate package oem-audio-daily-dkms | 23:05 |
| travis__ | I then ran this command: sudo apt-get install dkms | 23:05 |
| Guest63328 | Is there any way to get rid of those 3rd party repos? | 23:06 |
| travis__ | It said: dkms is already the newest version. | 23:06 |
| daftykins | travis__: yeah so whatever guide you're following gave the wrong package name, so essentially you didn't change anything (good thing) | 23:06 |
| wileee | Guest63328, My guess is you just cruised the web and installed what you found without realizing it was a soon fatal mistake, sooner or later. | 23:06 |
| mindbender1 | How can I manually start a service in the init.d directory? | 23:07 |
| travis__ | daftykins, I got the command from another Ubuntu user on CS:GO. | 23:07 |
| travis__ | daftykins, He must have misspelled something I suppose. | 23:07 |
| Guest63328 | I suppose. I'm just gonna reformat the drive and Install windows 7 again, was worth a try I suppose | 23:07 |
| Guest63328 | thanks for trying to help | 23:07 |
| daftykins | travis__: ah-har, do you install every package CS players tell you to? :P | 23:07 |
| wileee | Guest63328, Anyway, I do wish you the best. ;) | 23:07 |
| deliveryman | hmmm i just noticed when i installed ubuntu my secondary drive is there but i cant access it | 23:08 |
| deliveryman | says no d-bus interface | 23:08 |
| zykotick9 | mindbender1: "sudo /etc/init.d/foo start" | 23:08 |
| deliveryman | i cant mount it | 23:08 |
| travis__ | daftykins, Nope..Lol. I'm very new to Linux though so I trusted his guidance. | 23:08 |
| deliveryman | anyone have any ideas | 23:08 |
| daftykins | travis__: but did said individual even have the same or close hardware? | 23:08 |
| mindbender1 | zykotick9 thanks. | 23:08 |
| deliveryman | it sees my mybook though and that worked but thats usb 3.0 not internal | 23:08 |
| travis__ | daftykins, I have no idea. I understand what you're getting at. I'll be more careful from now on. | 23:09 |
| Guest63328 | Thanks for help wileee . Guess windows was the way to go | 23:09 |
| zykotick9 | mindbender1: i'd guess "sudo service foo start" might also work, and be more current... | 23:09 |
| daftykins | travis__: ;) perhaps have a hunt online for your exact model system and ubuntu version | 23:09 |
| travis__ | daftykins, Can you please help me? I have a Lenovo Edge 15 laptop with Nvidia Geforce graphics card and i7 processor (if that stuff matters) | 23:09 |
| wileee | Guest63328, If you did the same in windows you would be infected. | 23:09 |
| wileee | likely anyway | 23:10 |
| travis__ | daftykins, Oh, and LMS Ubuntu | 23:10 |
| travis__ | 14.04 | 23:11 |
| daftykins | LTS :) | 23:11 |
| travis__ | My bad lol | 23:11 |
| travis__ | I told you, I'm a newbie | 23:11 |
| deliveryman | is there anything i can do to make ubuntu do more than just see my secondary hdds | 23:11 |
| deliveryman | hdd* | 23:11 |
| deliveryman | what does no d-bus interface mean | 23:12 |
| deliveryman | im going ot restart hte computer and see if i can fix it | 23:12 |

| avilba | Hello everyone. I have a keyboard issue : on my laptop, my touchpad seems to be disabled for 2-3 seconds when I press any key of my keyboard. And that's also true when I use Onboard (virtual on-screen keyboard). Any ideas what the problem might be ? | 23:13 |
| daftykins | travis__: before going any further - this system working isn't your lifeline to getting some important work done is it? :) | 23:13 |
| RileyTL | avilba: that's a good thing is it not? :) | 23:15 |
| RileyTL | avilba: I like that feature anyway. | 23:15 |
| squinty | avilba: iirc, there is a toggle in System Control keyboard to "turn off touchpad while typing" | 23:16 |
| avilba | Oh is it meant to be like that ? Didn't realize... | 23:16 |
| RileyTL | If I had to guess I'd say you're using something called 'syndaemon' | 23:16 |
| travis__ | daftykins, This is my laptop. | 23:16 |
| travis__ | daftykins, All I use it for is browsing the internet, coding as a hobby, etc | 23:16 |
| daftykins | ok so not mission critical | 23:17 |
| travis__ | daftykins, If my OS gets ruined, I can reinstall from a flashdrive | 23:17 |
| travis__ | daftykins, No documents on here that I can't live without. | 23:17 |
| daftykins | good stuff | 23:17 |
| daftykins | travis__: http://askubuntu.com/questions/618575/how-do-i-find-the-current-stable-kernel-hwe-for-14-04-2 - try that to get the *vivid* HWE then | 23:17 |
| daftykins | travis__: actually this one has the vivid version command - http://askubuntu.com/questions/598483/how-can-i-use-kernel-3-19-in-14-04-now | 23:18 |
| avilba | Ok thanks RileyTL now I know where to look ! | 23:18 |
| Nectar | Anyone know a good message notifier for Empathy mail? recommend? | 23:18 |
| avilba | Good day everyone. | 23:18 |
| Shed-34046 | Where do i go for Ubuntu support like how to install mozilla build of firefox and intel drivers and change a system setting and such :3 | 23:19 |
| daftykins | Shed-34046: you already have the intel drivers if you installed and updated your release, no action needed to be taken there. | 23:20 |
| pablo_ | dured | 23:20 |
| Shed-34046 | ok | 23:20 |
| daftykins | Shed-34046: and what's wrong with the firefox you have? | 23:20 |
| Shed-34046 | I just want the MozillaBuild since it has a built in updater :3 | 23:21 |
| travis__ | daftykins, So, to my understanding, I need to run: sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-vivid ? | 23:21 |
| daftykins | yes | 23:21 |
| wileee | Shed-34046, mozilla updates are usually in ubuntu within a day or so. | 23:21 |
| daftykins | Shed-34046: pointless. | 23:21 |
| Shed-34046 | ok | 23:22 |
| daftykins | !pm | Shed-34046 Please don't. | 23:22 |
| ubottu | Shed-34046 Please don't.: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. | 23:22 |
| daftykins | hmm ran off | 23:22 |
| pauljw | :) | 23:22 |
| travis__ | daftykins, "System program problem detected. Do you want to report the problem now?" | 23:23 |
| travis__ | I can cancel or report. | 23:24 |
| travis__ | daftykins, I really hope I don't have to reinstall Ubuntu lol.. | 23:24 |
| daftykins | i have no way of knowing what that's about, nor if you're saying you installed and rebooted already | 23:24 |
| travis__ | The command is currently running | 23:24 |
| travis__ | Wait, it just finished. | 23:24 |
| travis__ | Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.19.0-25-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.19.05-25-generic | 23:25 |
| Nectar | not empathy i mean; a notification for Evolution | 23:25 |
| daftykins | travis__: rather than pasting piecemeal, (parts) paste the whole output from the command to http://paste.ubuntu.com please | 23:26 |
| travis__ | Wow, I really need to learn more about Linux... | 23:26 |
| travis__ | How can I copy from Command Line? | 23:26 |
| moodyreds | anyone familiar with 'library not found -lgcc_s.10.5'? | 23:26 |
| daftykins | travis__: select it, edit menu -> copy | 23:26 |
| travis__ | I highlighted and hit ctrl c to no avail | 23:27 |
| travis__ | Thanks | 23:27 |
| daftykins | it's ctrl+shift+C i think | 23:27 |
| daftykins | depends on terminal | 23:27 |
| wileee | Nectar, Release? | 23:27 |
| travis__ | Any particular syntax highlighting to use? | 23:28 |
| Nectar | wileee3> 12.11 | 23:28 |
| travis__ | Nevermind | 23:28 |
| travis__ | Stupid question lol | 23:28 |
| travis__ | daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12035388/ | 23:28 |

| daftykins | travis__: can you also use the same method to share the output of "lspci" ? | 23:29 |
| coffee- | flgx or flgx-updates? | 23:30 |
| wileee | njbair, Something else maual option. | 23:30 |

| travis__ | daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12035410/ | 23:31 |
| njmbb82 | rather, i'm unfamiliar with this interface | 23:31 |
| wileee | Nectar, please preface answers to others with their nick. | 23:31 |
| travis__ | daftykins, By the way, I really appreciate your help buddy. :) | 23:31 |
| travis__ | I really want to get into Linux. | 23:32 |
| travis__ | I'm just such a newbie :( | 23:32 |
| daftykins | travis__: ok reboot should be safe, but there'll be a couple of things to check prior to you trying out CS | 23:32 |
| travis__ | daftykins, Okay. Let me reboot and meet you back here. | 23:32 |
| wileee | !info mail-notification-evolution | 23:33 |

| coffee- | daftykins, updates? won't trash my new ubuntu install? | 23:35 |
| daftykins | coffee-: everything is reversible. | 23:35 |
| coffee- | erm okies :) ty daftykins :) | 23:36 |
| wileee | Nectar, So you know, I just used your question, '15.04 notification for Evolution' with the release your are running, top of the google list. | 23:36 |
| wileee | 30 seconds at most | 23:36 |
| travis__ | daftykins, I'm back | 23:37 |
| daftykins | travis__: ok "sudo apt install pastebinit" then "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" | 23:37 |
| daftykins | i'll brb | 23:37 |
| travis__ | daftykins, Upon reboot I got the same error message about my System progaram problems | 23:38 |
| travis__ | Ok | 23:38 |
| travis__ | Ok, I'll wait. | 23:38 |
| wileee | <daftykins> travis__: ok "sudo apt install pastebinit" then "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" you might do this for daftykins | 23:39 |
| travis__ | daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12035454/ | 23:39 |
| wileee | ;) | 23:39 |

| wileee | Nectar, Glad to help, hope this works, just giving you some search info. ;) | 23:40 |
| travis__ | daftykins, "You are trying to send an empty document, exiting." | 23:41 |
| daftykins | wellity wellity | 23:41 |
| daftykins | sounds like you never installed an nvidia graphics driver to play that game of yours | 23:41 |
| travis__ | Really..? | 23:41 |
| travis__ | Wow | 23:41 |
| daftykins | must've been using the intel only | 23:42 |
| travis__ | Didn't know I had to manually do that | 23:42 |
| travis__ | On Ubuntu | 23:42 |
| daftykins | travis__: "sudo apt install nvidia-346 nvidia-prime nvidia-settings" | 23:42 |
| travis__ | I'm such a newbie, but my endgame is Arch Linux. Any idea on how to get more familiar with command line and such? | 23:42 |
| travis__ | Basically all things Linux? | 23:42 |
| wileee | that's what the cool kids run | 23:43 |
| daftykins | don't think of arch as some kind of 'pro' option | 23:43 |
| * wileee inserts joke | 23:43 | |
| daftykins | it's essentially like those that soup up their cars, only in Linux form | 23:43 |
| travis__ | daftykins, I just know that it is essentially a "minimalistic" distro. | 23:44 |
| travis__ | I like the idea of minimalism, thats all. | 23:44 |
| pauljw | travis__, just start small, at the beginning. try this for starters: http://www.linux-books.us/linux_general_0003.php | 23:44 |
| wileee | travis__, use the net install and be as minimal you wan with ubuntu. | 23:44 |
| travis__ | Having the right tool for the right job. | 23:44 |
| pauljw | read and read some more... | 23:44 |
| daftykins | travis__: functionality on update is also minimal so i hear ;) | 23:45 |
| travis__ | daftykins, Really? Isn't it rolling? | 23:46 |
| travis__ | So basically it breaks all of the time..? | 23:46 |
| daftykins | so i hear :D | 23:46 |
| daftykins | anyway did the above install? | 23:46 |
| travis__ | Yup, just finished. | 23:46 |
| daftykins | ok reboot | 23:47 |
| travis__ | daftykins, Do you work in IT? | 23:47 |
| travis__ | I need to know before I reboot lol | 23:47 |
| travis__ | y/n? | 23:48 |
| travis__ | fine...ignore me. I'm gonna reboot. | 23:48 |
| daftykins | how childish | 23:49 |
| daftykins | how dare i fetch beer and chocolate :P | 23:49 |
