[00:46] The Audio kind of sounds really bad, and I was wondering if anyone could point me to a decent equalizer === im is now known as yang_im [00:52] clear [00:55] Hey guys......I'm looking for an audio equalizer, as I'm not happy with the sound coming out of the system currently. anyone know of any good ubuntu audio equalizers? [00:55] guys I am having trouble with ipnet [00:55] http://askubuntu.com/questions/659231/change-inet-addr192-168-2-2 [00:56] any experienced user who can help ? [00:56] or point me a possible solution [00:56] ? [00:56] j3r0: 100% wrong, the address doesn't change anything [00:57] I believe you and I don't disagree with you [00:57] but I don't know what else to do [00:58] it must be something with the ip [00:58] well your post doesn't explain what problems you're having at all [00:58] no internet access [00:58] although I connect to wifi [00:58] what's your router's IP? 2.1 ? [00:58] and with my dual boot windows I can internet access [00:58] yes [00:58] do you have the same ip in windows? [00:58] 2.1 [00:58] what are you typing from now? [00:58] yes at windows I have the same ip 2.2 [00:59] mobile 3g broadmand [00:59] ping 2.1 in a terminal, does it work? [00:59] "ping 192.168.2.1" obviously [00:59] ctrl+C to stop [01:00] what is the ping command ? [01:00] brb I will dc and come back [01:00] j3r0: also do an "ip route" to pastebin on your return === NotANick_ is now known as NotANick [01:01] ok but how I ping ? what is the command ? [01:02] j3r0: above, you can't miss it... it starts with 'ping' [01:02] ah I see. Forgive me but I am in despair mood [01:02] brb [01:04] hi is there a firewall i should get for ubuntu or just keep it updated? [01:04] coffee-: you're behind a home router, no? [01:04] yes [01:04] that's your firewall, so unless you're on a laptop that you travel about with... [01:04] !ufw [01:04] 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 [01:05] ok ty daftykins [01:05] np [01:09] http://pastebin.com/hD7iErfE [01:10] http://postimg.org/image/84btrfuu7/ [01:10] when I put in the broswer the 2.2 ip [01:10] yeah but that's just what you've installed on your local system === hugegree_ is now known as hugegreenbug [01:10] j3r0: why would you visit your own internal LAN IP? :) what do you expect to be there? [01:11] it's the same ip from ifconfig wlan0 [01:11] j3r0: can you run "cat /etc/issue" ? no need to disconnect to do it [01:11] j3r0: yeah that's the IP your wireless card has on your home network, wirelessly [01:11] Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS \n \l [01:12] ok [01:12] j3r0: what did you change recently to break the wireless? [01:13] I don't know I swear , one day everything works perfect next day no internet access [01:13] but did you update between at least/ [01:13] ? [01:13] no [01:13] I am sure for that [01:14] i didn't update anything [01:14] j3r0: "lspci" in pastebinit? again no need to disconnect [01:15] http://pastebin.com/HRMXxmLz [01:17] j3r0: and "ls /boot" please === Tla is now known as Guest57312 [01:17] this is my interfaces btw http://pastebin.com/sPuVBhSQ === im is now known as yang_im [01:18] yep no worries [01:18] http://pastebin.com/eCGJ8n1H [01:18] j3r0: and "uname -r" shows you're on 3.13.0-57 right now? [01:19] 3.13.0-57-generic [01:19] j3r0: it appears your realtek RTL8188CE wireless has a driver bug right now, as per - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1401741 [01:19] Launchpad bug 1401741 in linux (Ubuntu) " rtl8188ee wireless driver high packet loss" [High,Confirmed] [01:20] from the begging it was this ? [01:20] j3r0: if you look at post #3, the guy there is saying he gets no issues on wireless channel 6. so if you reboot into windows, try visiting your router's web page and changing the channel number of the wifi [01:20] this is the channel [01:20] channel 6 [01:20] yeah did you see the huge packet loss in your pings? [01:20] well change it then :> [01:20] yes I can see it [01:21] what channel should I use ? [01:21] see in the post on the above page [01:21] you can also hold left shift at boot time, or pressing escape, then try picking older kernels for testing [01:21] I also have toshiba laptop [01:23] if I update will this fix the problem ? [01:23] doubt it - but you should be keeping up to date anyway [01:23] I haven't update for a long time [01:23] wouldn't hurt to try [01:23] ok one last thing before I leave [01:24] left shift all the time [01:24] and I use what kernel ? [01:24] just before the hard disk is booted from, you hold it briefly [01:25] just go back in order testing a few [01:25] ok [01:25] if you update you'll get -61 though [01:25] !info linux-generic trusty [01:25] linux-generic (source: linux-meta): Complete Generic Linux kernel and headers.

[01:30] wired network? wireless network? [01:31] never mind, I got it [01:31] ok [01:31] Finetundra__: i'm curious what an internet driver is though :) [01:33] you are a god [01:33] an ubuntu shaman [01:34] an ancient spirit that help mortals [01:34] I love you [01:34] thank you very very very much [01:35] daftykins: I may have bbeen mistaken as to how to phrase my question [01:35] daftykins you are the best [01:35] the boss [01:37] Finetunrda_: yeah i'm curious what you meant though [01:37] j3r0: which approach worked? [01:37] changed the channel to 5 [01:38] heh, really is a bad wireless driver! shame on Realtek [01:38] daftykins: the internet services seem to not be starting at boot. That or the drivers. [01:38] 12 packets transmitted, 12 received, 0% packet loss, time 11016ms [01:38] :D [01:38] sweet [01:38] daftykins, people like you make the world a better place [01:39] haha you're too kind [01:40] Also I think is felony sneaking in your neighbors router and changing the channel of the router [01:40] err, this wasn't your network? :P [01:41] no . but I am not lame I asked for the password [01:41] they are too old, they will not notice [01:42] also I am using the network for 2 weeks === sythe is now known as sythe-pizza [01:51] hi there - i have aproblem with my clean install of 15.04 - my load average never goes below 1 - it appears as though it has a 1 added to the real load average... anyone else seeing the same symptoms? [01:58] ak2766: are you having any problems === sythe-pizza is now known as sythe === daniel is now known as Guest71558 [02:10] Ben64: not really, but i was wondering whether there's an underlying problem - i've seen a few videos where the load average is at 0.20 and was wondering why on my idle system it is always ~1.20 - right now it is sitting at 1.15 with hardly anything running! [02:11] Ben64: here it is --- 12:10:24 up 12:38, 4 users, load average: 1.15, 1.31, 1.30 [02:15] hey guys, bit of a weird problem here [02:15] i get a purple flash on boot and then lose video signal [02:16] njmbb82: tried nomodeset? [02:16] it seems to be evry other boot [02:16] daftykins, how do i do that? [02:16] so, to answer your question, no [02:17] what happens when you get the flash, do you power off forcably because you get no picture? what's the graphics hardware? [02:18] the gpu is a gtx295. and yeah i wind up forcably shutting down [02:19] so desktop? [02:19] if you've got another machine it'd be handy to see if you can SSH in, if it actually goes any further [02:20] njmbb82: do you know which nvidia driver you're using? also, which ubuntu? (and kernel?) [02:21] it's a fresh install of 15.04 [02:23] njmbb82: how new/old is the pc/laptop you've installed it on? [02:24] i built it when the gtx295 was new [02:24] so, 2011 [02:24] <[Saint]> Odd issue I found interesting: for some reason when I log in, there's an apparent difference between my login password when entered with Shift held (accepted) as opposed to Caps Lock being on (rejected). [02:24] <[Saint]> Thoughts? [02:24] <[Saint]> The mere principle of it is driving me nuts. [02:25] booting from a live disk presents no issues [02:26] what driver is loaded in the live disk? [02:26] njmbb82: so have you installed an nvidia proprietary driver, or are you using nouveau? [02:27] i'm pretty sure it's nouveau. how do i check? [02:27] njmbb82: pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log [02:28] or check if you installed anything nvidia, you should really remember [02:28] dpkg -l | grep nvidia [02:28] i haven't installed anything yet [02:29] up to you then, perhaps giving the proprietary driver a try is worth it [02:30] any clue why it would be evry other boot? [02:30] nope, but as i said if you could SSH in perhaps you could grab logs [02:31] my money's on nouveau having a hiccup [02:32] <[Saint]> speaking of gfx, I can't use anything higher than 15.* on my older desktop now, because the radeon driver goes fucking mental. [02:32] <[Saint]> and flgrwhatever-the-hell-it-is isn't supported on said ancient card. [02:32] inappropriate language for this channel [02:32] [Saint]: yep upgrade or different OS then [02:33] <[Saint]> Seems odd that by and large the radeon driver hasn't changed. [02:33] <[Saint]> Yet it is now entirely unusable. [02:33] there's *kind of* a way around it but i wouldn't recommend it, so it's better to pretend i didn't say there is one [02:34] <[Saint]> you mean the terrible way of trying to convince catalyst it's not the card it thinks it is or those questionable recompiled catalyst drivers? [02:34] <[Saint]> both of those provide...interesting...results. [02:35] no neither [02:35] <[Saint]> I just found it odd. The radeon driver has been largely static for years where it matters here, but it's suddenly become totally unworkable. [02:35] it's improved a lot for a lot of peoples video playback and so on, on some generations of card === master_ is now known as potatosalad352 [02:36] <[Saint]> going back to upstart provides better results for...$reasons. [02:36] <[Saint]> But nuts to that. [02:36] <[Saint]> That breaks a tonne of other things. [02:37] <[Saint]> Generally speaking I'm not /too/ inpressed with the amount of issues I hit with 15.* [02:37] <[Saint]> Silly me had encrypted $home...that was amusing. [02:37] <[Saint]> Not. [02:37] i feel like you'd keep going if i flew around the world :) [02:37] <[Saint]> swap gets all sorts of hilariously messed up unless you pull ecryptfs-utils from proposed. [02:38] <[Saint]> but them systemd from proposed breaks near everything else. :) === opa is now known as Guest81566 === Blaster is now known as Guest4236 === potatosalad352 is now known as Torqued [02:42] HELLO HELLO [02:42] IM BACK MY FRIENDS [02:42] How is everyone doing tonight!?

Apparently I can make myself equal to root but then all applications will permanently be allowed root status too... [02:49] hello, my network service doesn't start at boot. What should I do? [02:49] still a bit vague on what you mean [02:49] do you mean your network interface (wired) doesn't get an IP address?

[02:53] if you want the easy option, yeah [02:53] unity iso damm heavy my processors stays at 50-60 celsius while idle [02:53] daftykins: mainky that neither wireless or wired will detect a connecion [02:53] *mainly [02:54] what's normally used? what did you do since when this worked fine?

It just stopped working. I did nothing [02:55] Finetunrda_: right but you probably installed a newer kernel, try booting an older one :) [02:55] bf-109: that's more a hardware question and without a model of CPU there's no way to say [02:55] dengxinjun [02:56] Finetunrda_, restart the networking service ent network-manager service [02:56] daftykins: I haven't run an update in a few weeks, so I don't thinkk the kernel got upgraded [02:56] daftykins: ent is not currently installed [02:57] wrong user.

[02:59] something that shows where my vpns connect to [03:00] that is normal BF [03:00] thanks [03:00] not really :) [03:01] hmm i tought that with windows 8 it was a bit cooler to the touch, switched to proprietary drivers for the videocard still didnt change much [03:02] never measured with windows would just have this warmth when rendering something [03:02] now its jsut idle [03:02] and it gets hot [03:02] its safe BF [03:03] worry when it hits 80c [03:03] bf-109: I have an i7 and it's usually a little warm. You ought to be fine [03:04] hmm thx [03:04] there are 6 generations of i7 out there, you can't compare them by range :) [03:04] daftykins: good point [03:04] I forget about that [03:06] hmm i jsut noticed cause it gets warm on my wrist while doing nothing, 2% cpus usage, up to 9% ram, windows is less efficient at that and energy and wouldnt get this warm unlles playing something or using loads of process power [03:07] bf-109: which i7 do you have? [03:09] daftykins: do you think letting the update for ubuntu-drivers-common run help? [03:10] Chrome is loading pages strangely - it's not drawing/loading part of it until I do something, e.g. scroll. [03:10] is this happening to anyone else? [03:10] Hello folks! [03:10] is this an area i can ask for help with something using cinnamon 2.4 desktop on ubuntu 14.04? [03:10] Hello [03:11] I am having some issue with a cron job that hangs every hour, and I have to restart my computer, no other way around it, how can I troubleshoot? [03:11] It hangs after this line according to /var/syslog, (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly) [03:11] I do not know [03:12] I checked in /etc/cron.hourly, and it is empty! [03:12] I checked crontab, and anacron, but can;t find the culprit... [03:12] this is a brand new 14.04.03 install [03:13] xprophetx: I'm sure that's fine [03:13] Oh === erwin is now known as easyOnMe [03:14] falafel: so if you kill cron and restart the service, it still doesn't work (restart required)? [03:14] please help me with this message [03:14] E: Failed to fetch http://ph.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/f/firefox/firefox_39.0.3+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_i386.deb Hash Sum mismatch [03:14] E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing? [03:14] Shirakawasuna, the computer just hangs, and that's what I found in the log. I just left it idle for more than an hour twice, and same thing happened. Not sure where to go now tbh [03:15] Shirakawasuna: alright thank you, when i select it from the login screen and it load in it keeping putting it in software render mode and i cant get it to load normally, any ideas why? [03:15] Shirakawasuna, what service? cron.hourly is empty... [03:15] falafel: what happens if you disable cron? [03:16] Shirakawasuna, you mean commenting all the jobs in crontab? Not sure yet, as I haven't been on the computer for more than an hour straight, it happened on idle [03:16] and then I also received this message: failed to download packages please check your internet connection [03:16] obviously my internet has no problem [03:16] please help [03:16] thanks in advance [03:17] xprophetx: I would guess it's an issue between X and your graphics card settings. What kind of card do you have and does /var/log/Xorg.0.log say about your graphics? Also, was the system working fine with another ubuntu desktop environment before (not cinnamon)? [03:17] falafel: I mean stopping cron - sudo systemctl stop cron [03:18] falafel: I think the first thing to do is probably to make sure it's definitely cron [03:19] any Linux Administrators in here? [03:19] easyOnMe: run sudo apt-get update again and see if it helps [03:19] carlosthejackal: I'm sure there's lots [03:19] lol not that many in the work place [03:20] Shirakawasuna: ive got an 8gb r9 290x and yeah default unity and gnome 3 ones load fine its just cinnamon that wont [03:20] Shirakawasuna, would it help if I post the last few lines of /var/syslog and what's in my crontab? [03:21] sudo apt/getlife [03:21] LOL [03:22] carlosthejackal, take the chat elsewhere [03:22] I been thinking about selling shirts [03:22] with that [03:22] !ot | carlosthejackal [03:22] carlosthejackal: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [03:23] thanks for sharing [03:24] carlosthejackal, this is support only NOT chit chat [03:24] xprophetx: weird, I'd expect cinnamon to work exactly like gnome 3 [03:24] it's almost identical [03:25] falafel: maybe! I wish it were faster to test if it were cron, but I'd definitely stop cron (and make sure it's gone with ps aux | grep chron) and wait an hour+ [03:25] xprophetx: I'm really not sure why, in that case. pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log just in case? [03:27] X11 forwarding question, I have it working except that running gnome-terminal doesn't work. No errors that I see and I'm not sure where to get error logs... [03:27] easyOnMe: sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get upgrade [03:28] <[Saint]> Shirakawasuna: if you want to speed that testing up just advance the system clock, no? [03:28] systemd0wn: so you're using X forwarding to run a GUI terminal app from another host, on your host? why? [03:28] <[Saint]> $do stuff, advance system clock 58 minutes; check; profit === [1]ftwig is now known as ftwig [03:29] You'd know better than me! I haven't tried messing with the system clock to mess with chron's behavior before [03:29] <[Saint]> Seems like an obvious think to try to me if you're waiting for a timed event. [03:29] <[Saint]> *thing [03:29] or just make it happen more regularly, then change it after ;) [03:29] Daftykins, lol. Fair question. I'm running a network emulator called GNS3 over ssh and when I console into a router its trying to open gnome-terminal [03:30] <[Saint]> or that, yes. === diveinto0 is now known as diveinto0^afk [03:31] which openvpn ppa is recommended? looks like there's a lot to choose from [03:31] Shirakawasuna: how do i do that?

[03:39] xprophetx: so if you log out of cinnamon and then log in to gnome, it doesn't happen? [03:40] Shirakawasuna: yeah gnome works perfect thats why i dont understand why this wont [03:41] the output that you had in pastebin [03:41] ubuntu94911: that's xprophetx's pastebin. You just copy + paste the contents of a file into it as text [03:41] there's also command line tools to do it...

[03:43] For the 2nd time on the live cd of Ubuntu on a PNY 2.0 usb flash drive 16GB.. The whole OS just like freezes up.. The mouse i can move barely and other things stop working [03:43] so you ran cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log ? [03:43] xprophetx: what does sudo dpkg --configure -a do?

While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [03:43] like everything locks up/freezes up badly and i had to press power button to force the computer off.. Is that normal if not how do i fix it :( [03:44] ubuntu94911: I didn't run anything... but 'cat' is one way to get the contents of a file displayed for you [03:44] HelpmeUbuntu, could be a bad USB. they do fail. could be a bad .iso - but you performed the chcksum, right? [03:44] I just bought this USB :/ [03:44] ubuntu94911: might want to check out inxi (in repo's) which can detail that kind of information. for example to view graphic card and installed driver etc, type inxi -Gx further details at https://code.google.com/p/inxi/ [03:44] Shirakawasuna: nothing as far as i can tell [03:44] HelpmeUbuntu, pny isn't known for high quality. try a different USB [03:45] all i have is PNY :( [03:45] HelpmeUbuntu, and the checksum? [03:45] Shirakawasuna: and yeah gnome works, KDE works and unity all run normal just not cinnamon [03:45] I never ran the command [03:45] !md5sum | HelpmeUbuntu [03:45] HelpmeUbuntu: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [03:45] xprophetx: what about glxinfo | grep DRI [03:45] thanks [03:46] xprophetx: I'm kind of just guessing at random things. I'm not sure if it's a cinnamon installation issue, a setting, or if that version of cinnamon really wants to use the graphics card and your system isn't up to the task [03:46] because DRI isn't working right [03:46] that xorg warning means your card isn't being used to its full potential in X [03:47] xprophetx: i didn't really catch the query, but i bet cinammon isn't using lightdm which means your proprietary driver isn't working [03:48] I'm going to redo the USB flash drive and give it some presitent cache and do the md5 check.. the download on my speed will take 30 minutes [03:48] I'd guess that they're using the radeon driver, daftykins [03:48] it's what xorg loads [03:48] Should i post what the results of the md5 check is here? [03:48] HelpmeUbuntu, md5sum the .iso now [03:48] Shirakawasuna: i manually made lightdm run but still nothing [03:48] HelpmeUbuntu, nope. just verify against the hashsum [03:48] cfhowlett i deleted the iso off the computer but i burned it to the usb drive [03:49] but that's a reasonable idea [03:49] you may want to dry gdm, xprophetx [03:49] I vaguely remember older cinnamon releases working better with gdm [03:49] this is cinnamon 2.4, right? [03:49] Shirakawasuna: yeah 2.4 [03:49] How do i use the md5 check on the usb drive? o_o [03:50] HelpmeUbuntu, read the wiki. use the "check CDROM" option but target the USB [03:51] xprophetx, This cinnammon is from a ppa? [03:51] cinnamon* [03:52] if i installed a new window manager what differences would i see? [03:52] Shirakawasuna: yeah im using the Tsvetko's Cinnamon PPA [03:52] xprophetx, I only ask as of 14.04, it was not stable enough for the ubuntu repos, but is in them for 15.04 [03:53] wileee: whoops that one was for you [03:53] if the md5 is right and such what would cause the freezing up though? [03:53] xprophetx, No problem. ;) [03:54] HelpmeUbuntu, "if ..." [03:54] wileee: i know 2.2 wasnt stable but 2.4 is suppose to work with it [03:54] When i install ubuntu what if the freeze ups happen stll [03:54] HelpmeUbuntu: ah you youngsters, always demanding 100 steps... cross that bridge when you come to it. [03:54] xprophetx: it might not fix your problem, but getting the radeon drivers working properly wouldn't hurt. My favorite guess right now is that cinnamon really wants DRI for some reason. [03:54] I'm 21 [03:54] xprophetx: Is there anything in /etc/xorg.conf.d? If there's a radeon conf in there, what's in it? [03:54] that's nice, dear [03:56] Shirakawasuna: yeah thats my next goal but i think im gonna tackle it in the morning, thanks for all the help tonight though i really appreciate it [03:56] xprophetx: I'm using the lestcape PPA on 14.04 on my media computer, though it has intel graphics. [03:56] (a different cinnamon 2.4 ppa) [03:56] xprophetx: okey-doke! Best of luck === zz_Thelks is now known as Thelks [03:58] HelpmeUbuntu: If the image is good, suspect the media (PNY USB drive) *or* your hardware having issues with that particular release (maybe the kernel, maybe a userspace driver, etc), in which case you try other releases - 14.04 vs. 15.04, e.g [03:58] HelpmeUbuntu, try #lubuntu instead [03:58] Intel's website says my Graphics card isn't supported on a list of supported operating system they have "No" listed under the linux column [03:59] here is my computer specs: Intel pentium b960, intel hd graphics, 500GB HDD, 4GB DDR3, Gateway NE56R41u with UEFI [04:00] but the 10 times i have tried the live usb for many hours at a time it hasn't freezed up but only 2 times. [04:00] and everything loads crazy fast [04:00] you do not download and install intel graphics drivers, trust me :) [04:02] Is it because i downloaded the 64bit version of Ubuntu while i am on a intel 64bit system?? [04:02] HelpmeUbuntu, On a live if there is no swap, you could have been hitting a swap point, I would install, you have a generic hardware, maybe start with lubuntu, you can try multiple desktops. [04:02] well my laptop has no swap it said in the live usb [04:03] If i can't install the regular version of Ubuntu i won't bother with linux :/ [04:03] HelpmeUbuntu, zactly if you were hitting over about 2.5 ram it wanted to swap, that will cause a freeze. [04:03] I have a HTML fodler in /var/www and it is locked. I want to be able to put files in there for a website. [04:03] I was watching the system monitor thing every other minute lol [04:03] HelpmeUbuntu, "regular version"? Lubuntu IS a regular version [04:03] !lubuntu | HelpmeUbuntu [04:03] HelpmeUbuntu: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. [04:03] It stayed below 2GB of ram.. It was using about 1.2GB of ram [04:04] how do I get the right permissions to change what is in the folder? [04:04] No i don't want Lubuntu i want UBUNTU not lubuntu. [04:04] HelpmeUbuntu, Problem is we can only guess in tis context. [04:04] !permissions | iLoveLiberty [04:04] iLoveLiberty: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [04:05] hello, I hope someone is feeling very patient as I have some super-noob questions about lxle. [04:05] !lxle | eipi_1 [04:05] What is swap anyways.. [04:05] eipi_1: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [04:05] eipi_1, outline them ans we will see eh [04:05] and* [04:05] daftykins: still the same problem the error message says try sudo apt-get update --fix-missing and I am doing it now will get back to you shortly [04:05] !swap | HelpmeUbuntu, [04:05] HelpmeUbuntu,: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info [04:05] eipi_1, we only support official ubuntu products. lxle is not on that list. [04:06] daftykins: now I got this error message [04:06] i don't see it [04:06] Reading package lists... Done [04:06] W: An error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used.

They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. [04:07] easyOnMe: you've been here long enough to know _NOT_ to paste. [04:07] HelpmeUbuntu, The swap also holds data so you can hibernate. [04:07] well, the problem is the same as with lubuntu....does that count? [04:07] neithe come with Update Manager [04:07] I tried this command sudo apt-get update --fix-missing | apaste and the terminal hangs up [04:07] eipi_1, nope. lxle is NOT ubuntu and has been changed in ways we don't track. ask lxle for assistance. [04:07] eipi_1, Yes, just spit it out man. [04:07] so if windows is doing fast startup fine does my computer support it or does windows not do swap [04:08] easyOnMe: sorry i'm calling it a night [04:08] eipi_1, Never mind I see you have a non supported. [04:08] HelpmeUbuntu: that's an extremely incoherent sentence [04:08] daftykins: ok no problem [04:08] thanks anyway [04:08] !flavors | eipi_1 - for future reference [04:08] eipi_1 - for future reference: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. [04:09] cfhowlett: can you help me please [04:09] If you guys are just gonna be smartarses.. just forget about it.. :/ [04:09] cfhowlett: http://apaste.info/zXI [04:09] How needs linux anyways it'll die off in a few years.. [04:09] you guys are no help.. [04:09] HelpmeUbuntu, they were right, comparing the two is a waste of time, and this is linux not windows. [04:10] wileee does all computers have swap on linux usually on live cd [04:10] easyOnMe, badsig error fix: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-the-ubuntu-gpg-error-badsig.html [04:10] HelpmeUbuntu, Swap is there if one has been made, it is a partition. [04:11] wileee why does usb say no swap space then?? [04:11] HelpmeUbuntu, because you did NOT place a swap on the USB. [04:11] how do i find out which display(login) manager i am using? [04:11] HelpmeUbuntu, Because there is not one, you have a live iso, it does not build a swap when loaded to a usb. [04:12] OK, well let's pretend I am using Ubuntu and I open synaptic package manager. Is it possible to do a "standard" update of installed software via synaptic? Is it "OK" to check the (Source Code) boxes that are not checked by default? [04:12] so could swap be the issue on live usb causing the freeze up? [04:12] <[Saint]> FWIW I _sincerely_ boubt that swapping is going to make a live install on USB perform any better. [04:12] HelpmeUbuntu, If you had a linux install or at least the swap left on the HD from an install, you would have a swap. [04:12] <[Saint]> Demonstrably worse perhaps...not better. [04:13] <[Saint]> When it actually wants to swap you'll have all sorts of "fun". [04:13] HelpmeUbuntu, We can only guess as I've said, you want guessing? [04:13] eipi_1, we're not going to pretend. your product is NOT ubuntu, it's been modified in ways we dont' track. for suport here: install an ubuntu flavor. otherwise: go to lxle. if they don't provide support, consider your options. [04:13] wileee if i come back here on the live usb would you guys help me with commands to test and see what might have caused it or not possible? [04:14] I wonder if theres an lxle channel on freenode [04:14] HelpmeUbuntu, Well you insulted linux and us once, should we even help you now? [04:14] sigh.. just my luck :( [04:15] HelpmeUbuntu, Not saying you wont get help, but you have to cover your own backside. [04:15] <[Saint]> Insulting people and a product they care for annoys them. [04:15] <[Saint]> Who knew? [04:15] people here hates me now.. I can't help i spoke/send that without thinking first.. I blame my autism and my lowish iq.. [04:15] !lxle | eipi_1 [04:15] eipi_1: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes.

Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [04:16] HelpmeUbuntu, asbergers? [04:16] is it terribly difficult to install lxde on ubuntu? [04:16] no autism spectrum disorder. [04:16] eipi_1, nope. quite easy. [04:16] <[Saint]> eipi_1: just use lubuntu [04:16] <[Saint]> then it's done for you [04:16] <[Saint]> but, no, no it's not. [04:16] HelpmeUbuntu, we will help you, it is a install and work with it in the end, you should have no problems with that hardware, it is generic. [04:17] well, I did install lubuntu and it's quite light. the iso is only 763 mb. [04:17] lotsa rad stuf not included [04:17] in fact, lubunu is on it now [04:18] <[Saint]> "rad stuff" like? [04:18] yeah [04:18] super-duper rad stuff [04:18] <[Saint]> I mean "as in ...?" [04:18] pre-installed ware, bra. [04:18] oh.... [04:18] <[Saint]> The only really meaningful difference is LXDE vs. Gnome [04:18] I dunno, shit loads. Lubuntu doesn;t ome ith jack. [04:18] <[Saint]> That's literally it. [04:19] fiddlesticks [04:19] does edubuntu use unity? [04:20] eipi_1, no [04:20] if lubuntu is on it now then you have lxde... [04:20] i know, but lxle comes with all kinds of stuff [04:20] 1.3 g iso [04:21] umm [04:21] edubuntu does use unity? [04:21] <[Saint]> I'm willing to bet a vast majority of that discrepency in iso size is cruft you'll literally never use. [04:21] <[Saint]> give a specific example of what's missing and someone might be able to help. [04:21] <[Saint]> keep being vague and...well, yeah. [04:21] yeah, you may be right, Saint [04:21] eipi_1: lxle? [04:21] yes [04:22] ah [04:22] I can;'t be specific..this room is only for ubuntu [04:22] I'd never heard of it and thought it was a typo [04:22] no typo [04:22] the difference is surely just default applications [04:23] <[Saint]> You can be specific about what packages you believe are missing in lxde vs lxle, you just can't expect support for the latter. [04:23] well, if one were to emply an lxde enviro on ubunto, would it be heavy? the machine is a 2006 dell with 2 g ram. [04:23] intsall lxde^ [04:24] it runs Maya ok.... [04:24] <[Saint]> Without specific examples of what you think is misisng that you'll actually make use of it's really hard to help you. [04:25] yep, it sure is Saint. [04:25] adios [04:25] eipi_1: I'd just try out lubuntu and if it's too 'heavy' look into a distribution focused on lightness instead [04:25] <[Saint]> or, that.

[05:17] ITs working fine, but it wont load any res above 1028 [05:17] pengpeng, install ubuntu server, get www.fullcirclemagazine.org/downloads server special edition [05:17] great, i followed some guide to reinstall pulseaudio and now i have no sound [05:17] guys it stopped skipping [05:17] it stopped working all together [05:17] does anyone know about bugzilla here? the guys over at #bugzilla are comatose. [05:17] 1024 by 768 [05:17] Guest16371, I doubt the intel drivers will change that and they are not supported here. [05:18] intel in the repos are fine [05:18] oh ok [05:20] #include [05:20] #include [05:20] int main(){ [05:20] while(1){ [05:20] system("./a.out &"); [05:20] } [05:23] ok i need help here [05:23] so i use ubuntu mate on both my desktop and laptop [05:23] ... [05:23] however [05:24] for some reason on my laptop i don't ever see the option to go into bios anymore [05:24] dxj just sent me a file I didn't ask for... [05:24] it only has ubuntu mate [05:24] why might that be? [05:24] dxj, why did you send me a file? [05:24] kro2488, all in one line and to the point [05:24] kro2488, one line. ONE LINE. stop hitting your enter key or it won't be read [05:24] run [05:24] ./a.out & [05:25] dxj: why? [05:25] run it [05:25] cfhowlett: excuse me. that link took me to the fullcircle homepage. is there a special edition of ubuntu server ? or just install the ubuntu server 14.04.3 lts from http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server and read the full circle magazine? [05:25] when i boot into ubuntu mate on my laptop i dont see the option to go into the bios anywhere. I want to try out linux mint on my laptop so I need to get to bios. Is there a command to do that from the terminal? [05:25] dxj, sening a file uninvited? no spam please [05:25] dxj: ... it would be stupid to run an executable from a stranger that I didn't ask for. [05:25] kro2488, you have about 3 seconds to hit the right key on powering on. [05:25] dxj: that's how you get viruses [05:25] A surprise [05:26] it doesn't tell me which one it is [05:26] >_< [05:26] it sounds like dxj is attempting to spread malware [05:26] who do I hassle about that? [05:26] dxj, what you call "surprise", I call spam. Don't want it. don't need and stop your nonsense. [05:26] kro2488, try f2, the manual should say, they are on line generally. [05:26] aight [05:27] i think i have less than three seconds lol [05:27] You need the source code? [05:27] pengpeng, ubuntuserver is the OS. install it. THIS is the magazine. read it. http://fullcirclemagazine.org/2011/01/26/full-circle-special-edition-01-the-perfect-server/ [05:27] kro2488, the bios splash usually says the key or keys, this a uefi? [05:27] dxj: No, it spawns itself. This is not your playground, so stop it. [05:28] report them to the ops #ubuntu-ops [05:28] ok i got it [05:28] thanks guys [05:28] sorry i was just trying to remember what button lol [05:29] O(∩_∩) [05:29] O(∩_∩)O [05:29] !guidelines | dxj [05:29] dxj: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [05:29] dxj, read and follow the guidelines. [05:29] What happens if efi partition gets deleted o.o [05:30] fowl: huh [05:30] HelpMeUbuntu, "if.." stop asking if questions. facts are easier to solve. [05:30] fowl: You just did an apt-get install --reinstall pulseaudio and your sound went away? [05:30] fowl: or did you do other things? [05:30] doesnt matter [05:30] I violated the rules? [05:30] dxj, you did. [05:30] cfhowlett what happens when esp/efi partition gets removed does it trash the UEFI bios or fixable? [05:30] i'm installing a different operating system, i had problems with random crap crashing in ubuntu since i installed it. i should've done this long ago [05:31] is that better ... [05:31] HelpMeUbuntu, you should not be removing those partitions [05:31] !uefi | HelpMeUbuntu [05:31] HelpMeUbuntu: 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 [05:31] cfhowlett does it trash the UEFI though or can it be fixed if ever done by mistake [05:31] English translation tired [05:32] dxj, go to #ubuntu-cn [05:32] I am Chinese [05:32] !cn | dxj [05:32] dxj: 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [05:32] But I want to learn English [05:32] HelpMeUbuntu: Short answer: No. You're not changing the BIOS by installing ubuntu [05:33] dxj, not here. this is not the "teach english" channel. [05:33] HelpMeUbuntu: Why are you asking? [05:33] Shirakawasuna what about the entry it makes in the UEFI the list of bootable devices menu the Ubuntu option does it remove itself after ubuntu gets removed [05:34] I just worried ok? I just worried like if i install Ubuntu and 5 months later want to remove it would the entry there go away on its own can if not would it hurt anything to keep it there [05:35] HelpMeUbuntu: definitely doesn't hurt anything to have a missing reference just wouldn't be able to boot that missing drive, not so sure about if it would clean up after itself if you remove the OS though since typically that means you're just wiping out the partition it's on and reclaiming the space, so far as I know there's no uninstall OS procedure [05:35] HelpMeUbuntu, Your best insurance is backups for any contingency including a bricked computer, or failed HD. [05:35] ^^ [05:35] Here are learning English Channel? [05:35] backup [05:36] !ot | dxj [05:36] dxj: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [05:36] dxj, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic [05:36] Thank you [05:37] HelpMeUbuntu: that's GRUB and it installs to the mbr [05:37] HelpMeUbuntu: It won't hurt anything on your system beyond repair. At most, it might make windows not boot, *if* you're dualbooting. [05:37] Shirakawasuna on UEFI based systems? [05:37] HelpMeUbuntu: UEFI is just a BIOS replacement [05:38] Shirakawasuna, Only if a legacy install is the mbr used. [05:40] ah, right [05:40] either way stop worring about hurting UEFI, HelpMeUbuntu [05:41] yeah HelpMeUbuntu the worst case scenario is you'd need to do a boot repair on the windows side but ideally just take a backup before you make major changes to your system and then you don't have to worry [05:41] HelpMeUbuntu, back it up or we will ridicule you when you break it. ;) [05:41] heh [05:41] ridicule mercilessly at that! [05:41] wafflejock and wileee idk how to back it up.. and if efi partition does get removed its fixable? [05:42] HelpMeUbuntu, THat is really advanced stuff, by you no. [05:42] I do have factory default usb that i made when i first got the laptop.. [05:43] HelpMeUbuntu, All windows releases have at least one image option, a clone, pro and above have unlimited. [05:43] wileee if i check my windos factory default disk from acer recovery tool if it has a folder "efi" on it does that mean the efi is backed up [05:43] HelpMeUbuntu: I typically use clonezilla for snapshots of a drive, but it requires burning a CD or making a bootable USB and having another drive to backup your current system, it will basically copy all the data (block for block) and roll up chunks of the data into zip files and then if you need to restore it does the opposite process, it's basically a guided wizard style bootable disc [05:44] HelpMeUbuntu, Go to file history, it's at the bottom, save it to a external HD. [05:44] +1 the zilla [05:44] the factory default drive by acer recovery tool lets me reinstall windows even if my HDD fails [05:44] HelpMeUbuntu: yeah if it's a clean windows drive that's probably good enough === Mcgiwer_ is now known as Mcgiwer [05:45] I mean if you don't care about losing any data in there in the case of something traumatic [05:45] HelpMeUbuntu, Yes, but you may loose everything, and if the HD goes bad your are at square one. [05:45] lose even* [05:45] I have another HDD from my old Laptop lol [05:45] oh thought I wrote that haha [05:46] lol err thanks for the correction. ;) [05:46] If you knew me in real life, you'd say i am a worry-wort lol [05:46] I'm going to install it.. Its almost 2am here now.. should it be done by 2:30am [05:46] If i choose to not install updates until tomorrow :3 === Blaster is now known as Guest54000 [05:46] HelpMeUbuntu: probably but you may want to wait till your fresh [05:47] HelpMeUbuntu: never good to be at the end of your rope when things go bad [05:47] wafflejock define fresh? [05:47] just mean in the morning [05:47] things go bad.. o_o you mean something could go bad and make it mess up o_o [05:48] something can always go bad [05:48] it's good to be optimistic and it's not that often something goes bad but something can always go bad [05:48] ok I'll play around with the live usb for a while longer :3 [05:48] you can try the live CD though if you haven't already [05:48] always a risk. also why best to do serious work only when well rested. [05:49] Wafflejock i am on live usb right now :3 I'm using Ubuntu from my usb drive and i like it stuff seems fine [05:50] HelpMeUbuntu: yeah should be okay but I've heard of some weird things here or there where someones wireless or GPU works fine in the live CD but then they have to do some fiddling with the installed system [05:51] HelpMeUbuntu: up to you if you want to risk possibly dealing with such headaches at 2:30am.... usually there's someone around here who can help but just fair warning :) [05:52] 8 hours of sleep solves many ubuntu problems [05:52] ubuntu startup disk maker the button "make startup disk" is not activatable [05:52] nothing functions [05:52] Anyone here use vcsh for dotfile management? [05:52] do you guys really use unbuntu ? [05:53] fowl: yup... I've seen what you're talking about in the startup disk creator just trying to recall what the issue was [05:53] -_-" [05:54] and when i use unetbootin it just doesnt show my usb drive [05:54] at all [05:54] I just installed it on my HP-Slim-400, 15-04 [05:55] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick [05:55] fowl: easiest way to get the data on the USB is probably to just dd [05:55] fowl: sudo dd if=input.iso of=/dev/sdc where /dev/sdc is your usb device, you can use lsblk, to see the devices [05:56] I use this program for Bootable thumb drives : http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ [05:56] wafflejock, thats not even listed on the "installation/fromusbstick" page [05:56] Works awesome so far... and YES you can use it to make a Win10 thumb drive. [05:56] fowl: http://askubuntu.com/questions/372607/how-to-create-a-bootable-ubuntu-usb-flash-drive-from-terminal [05:59] fowl: like it says there including the bs (block size) parameter for dd helps to make the transfer happen faster [05:59] fowl: I've used this a bunch of times with raspbian images for a raspberry pi or ubuntu startup disks, typically is less work than the GUI solutions [06:07] <[Saint]> wafflejock: pro-tip for the future - since this channel is publicly logged, always use sdN for dd commands or antyhing that touches a disk really. [06:07] <[Saint]> SOmeone _will_ eventually copy it verbatim and nuke something they didn't want to unexpectedly [06:08] Thanks wafflejock that worked [06:08] <[Saint]> Not tellin' anyone off, just a word of caution. Users might not necessarily expect the end result and then end up passing blame [06:08] <[Saint]> source: had that happen a few times and witnessed the results even more [06:08] <[Saint]> dd can be very bad juju in the wrong hands. [06:11] [Saint]: ah gotcha good call, will do in the future [06:11] fowl: cool glad to hear it [06:12] <[Saint]> So glad you took that in the manner intended. I know I can be...blunt. ANd sometimes I come across as overly negative. [06:12] [Saint]: hopefully if they copy paste they don't have an input.iso :) [06:12] [Saint]: nope it's fine had just stepped away for a minute, valid point just took me a sec to grok sdN when I got back [06:13] <[Saint]> The worst instances I've seen involve * substitution, it can get...messy. [06:24] Garbage softqare [06:32] why upstart logs are .gzed on 15.04 [06:33] do i need to extract them each time? [06:33] Hi [06:34] How can I use one computer but with more than 1 people operating it at the same time with their own keyboard, mouse and display? I heard its possible. What terminology should be used for it and how hard is to configure? [06:34] Voyage, thin client [06:35] Abhijit, ok. i think its no possible in windows [06:35] but it is possible in linux. [06:35] how to do that? [06:35] Voyage, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ThinClients [06:38] Abhijit, the thinclient will NOT have any kind of cpu. correct? just monitor and keyboard/mouse? [06:40] Voyage, i think it will have === Blaster is now known as Guest23584 [06:42] Abhijit, mostly for diskspace concerns. Use gzcat to crack them open [06:42] Abhijit, thats not what i want. I just want the plugin multiple keyboards , mice, monitors on my existing system and be able to log in different users === diveinto0^afk is now known as diveinto0 [06:44] Voyage, you could run multiple instances of X, but with what you're planning to do you'd have to install multiple video cards [06:44] daklan, thats not what I am looking for. [06:44] You should probably stick with thin clients [06:45] Abhijit, then what exactly are you looking for? [06:45] im trying to find a tor browser other than vidalia (keeps crashing) any suggestions? [06:45] daklan, Abhijit "multi-seat" [06:46] daklan, why are they gz ed by default? its extra layer of work to read logs. when i am doing troubleshooting why i want to spend extra time on extracting them? [06:46] <[Saint]> nobunga: tor-browser? [06:46] nobunga, i thought vidalia is a proxy [06:46] <[Saint]> nobunga: https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en#linux [06:46] i just search software manager and it described itself as a gui for tor [06:47] As i said, mostly for diskspace concerns. Are you asking if you can configure upstart to not compress those logs? [06:47] ty saint [06:47] <[Saint]> np [06:48] daklan, yes [06:49] Logs are text heavy, so it makes sense to compress them (they shrink really well). The amount of processing cycles consumed to decompress them is not too much, unless you have gigabytes worth of compressed files to open [06:49] ok [06:50] I think upstart uses syslog, so maybe you can configure it from there [06:51] ok [06:51] But as i said, decompressing them isnt really difficult. gzcat with sed or zgrep might make your job easy [06:52] Or pipe the output of gzcat to less if you really want to look at the entire log [06:52] ok using gunzip [06:53] You dont have to extreact it to your filesystem, use gzcat and less or sed, or zgrep [06:54] ok [06:54] Extracting it to your filesystem is indeed extra work [06:55] ok i thought all of them are same command different frontend [06:57] Man gunzip, man gzcat, man zgrep [06:57] They're meant to do different things [06:57] ok [07:06] <_SLM_> Hey, I just installed Ubuntu, but after it asked me to restart and it did, after the standard motherboard screen the screen went purple and hasnt changed for over 5 minutes now [07:06] <_SLM_> Is anyone online who can help me? [07:07] _SLM_: have you tried starting from recovery mode? [07:07] How can I use rm -rf to delete everything, including system files? [07:08] <_SLM_> recovery mode? is that found in the installation usb I made from the iso? [07:08] _SLM_: just after the post there is either is a hidden grub menu [07:08] _SLM_: so as the computer is starting keep mashing the down arrow until the menu pops up [07:09] <_SLM_> ok, doing that now [07:09] _SLM_: Then go to advanced options and select recovery mode [07:09] or just keep shift down IIRC [07:10] <_SLM_> done, got a grey menu now [07:10] <_SLM_> which option do I need? [07:10] advanced options -> recovery mode [07:11] <_SLM_> yeah, I am in recovery mode [07:11] fsck [07:11] <_SLM_> ah ok [07:11] after that try "resume" normal boot [07:14] <_SLM_> it worked. great === esc_type_ is now known as esc_type [07:14] <_SLM_> now the big question, will it keep working? was this any serious issue? [07:14] _SLM_: I have had a few issues with the latest patch. [07:14] _SLM_: I haven't submitted a but but you could google a fix [07:14] bug* [07:15] <_SLM_> well, there was no error code afaik, just a purple screen. I assume I will get a lot of falve positives search for ¨hangs on purple screen at boot¨ [07:15] Check your xserver logs, you may find a clue. Driver issue, probably [07:15] <_SLM_> ah okay [07:16] <_SLM_> thanks for the help guys [07:16] np [07:17] daklan: cups-browsed is where it hanges up in text mode [07:17] for me at least [07:17] Hmm, that is interesting [07:18] Ya so im just waiting for next update to fix it. [07:18] Drop to single user and disable it, see if it will boot afterwards [07:18] daklan: nope [07:19] So it's not cups then [07:19] I used sysv-rc-config and disabled it. still got caught up. I didn't try update-rc.d yet though [07:19] Which version is this? [07:19] How can I make an screen and multiplex (e.g. so my friend can see the same stuff)? My friend did it before but I can't figure out how [07:19] You mean it hung at cups-browsed again? [07:19] which decimal value can i use for 's ' chmod rws [07:19] 3.13.0.57 amd 64 [07:19] daklan: yep [07:20] Then it's not disabled [07:20] daklan: thats what I thought so I guess I could manually remove the links from /init.d/ [07:20] but like I said I'm lazy and my machaine doesn't go down that often [07:21] Update-rc.d is better [07:21] nudoge: no issues on other laptops just this one. [07:21] but I mess with so many /etc/ files I expect bugs [07:23] Optimistic, why not just chmod +rws ? [07:24] optimistic: in what context? setuid setgid? [07:25] actually i'm willing to know decimal value for ex- for rwx------ we use chmod 700, [07:25] which one? [07:25] 1 is the sticky bit [07:25] chmod 1755, for example [07:26] 2 is setgid, and 4 is setuid [07:26] Correct, and you can combine setuid and setgid with the sticky bit [07:27] So 5755 is set sticky and setuid [07:27] or use 3755 and set the other [07:27] ok thnks, can you sentd me some reference for stuffs you said i'm totally newbie [07:28] Google? Lol [07:28] Man chmod [07:28] optimistic: the more I learn I know Im just going to stay noob forever. I've gotten used to the idea and just keep reading. [07:29] ok , i was jst asking for some specification , but thnks [07:29] optimistic: you can use "man chmod" or "info chmod" [07:30] ok i'll [07:30] thnks all of you [07:31] Optimistic, most of the time, man pages have everything that you will ever need to know. I personally use google as a backup [07:31] Sometimes, i even lookup the man pages for something via google [07:32] ok i'm going for manual pages ,Done! [07:32] optimistic: a lot of admins just used letters instead of number though. [07:33] info pages give you lots of details as well [07:34] But nothing beats google when you're trying to find something that you dont know how to ask, or where to start [07:34] daklan: I prefer to ask irc for things related to the os and google for third party programs [07:34] Using octals is a little quicker, though. 777 vs ugo+rwx [07:35] Irc is good too [07:35] daklan: ya I should pratice them more [07:35] Or phone a friendly geek [07:35] daklan: infact im going to do that now then go to sleep [07:35] Just dont call the geek squad at best buy (in the US) [07:36] can anyone help me get my gamepad working [07:38] Usb gamepad? Im not very familiar with how to get those working, have you tried google? [07:38] lol [07:39] daklan: ok think I got it. 1=x 2=w 3=wx 4=r 5=rx 6=rw 7=wrx [07:39] daklan yes i have [07:39] !snappy [07:39] Ubuntu Core is a rendition of Ubuntu with transactional updates using "snappy".

[08:13] Package 'weechat' is not installed, so not removed [08:14] Wrong package name, then [08:14] dpkg -l | grep weechat [08:14] See if you get a hit [08:15] Then use dpkg -r to remove (or -P to purge) [08:17] join #ivre [08:25] daklan: Thanks a lot. It worked. :) [08:25] Great [08:35] daklan: I've installed setoolkit, but I am not able to uninstall it. Whenever I run setoolkit in the terminal. It shows "/usr/bin/setoolkit: line 1: cd: /usr/share/setoolkit: No such file or directory.python2: can't open file 'setoolkit': [Errno 2] No such file or directory" [08:36] ytixdecaf: How did you install it? [08:36] touch /usr/share/setoolkit [08:36] git clone. [08:36] daklan: Thats pretty pointless. :) [08:36] Then try to uninstall again [08:36] Not if the script is looking for that file and fails if it is not there [08:36] ytixdecaf: Well, then you'd have to contact the authors of that toolkit I guess. [08:37] daklan: "touch" will not create a directory. So pointless. [08:37] Oh, missed the cd, lol [08:38] 'E: Unable to locate package setoolkit' :\ [08:38] ytixdecaf: Yeah, because you used git clone instead of the package management system. [08:38] Can't we uninstall it using git or something like that? [08:39] ytixdecaf: git has nothing to do with uninstalling stuff. git is a decentralized revision control system. [08:39] ytixdecaf: You need to contact the author(s) of what you installed there on how to get rid of it again. [08:39] Oh, well. :\ okay. [08:42] morning, i want to install ubuntu on a second drive but does grub find windows 10 that im currently using ? there is no problem with dual booting win10 and ubuntu ? [08:42] Shouldn't be a problem, i just did that two days ago [08:43] daklan, nice uefi ? [08:43] Oh, no. Old machine, no uefi.

[09:33] so do i need to grab that as well? [09:33] mbs_: Whats the actual issue behind your learning? Are you trying to install a driver for your Intel GPU? [09:36] just mucking around, ive compiled and install the latest kernel from source and my graphics are a bit choppy [09:39] emacs not default too :( [09:47] thanks all [09:49] How would I go about installing an older version of ubuntu over a newer one? [09:50] ubuntu897, download the .iso, make a boot usb. boot the usb, install and select the existing partitions as your target. [09:50] Thanks [09:50] but why an OLD version?? [09:51] Because I'm wanting to switch to a long term supported version [09:51] "clever girl ..." [09:52] I'm new to the whole linux thing, but I noticed some things weren't working as easily as they probably should.

Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server.

[09:55] I use a thumbdrive since I don't have spare CDs [09:56] I'm using the startup disk creator and it's installing on my USB now actually [09:56] ubuntu897, right. usb stick isn't an usb HDD [09:56] That might be a problem then.

If the signal strength is 2 bars or lower the system connects to the router/modem combo, but the system doesn't access the internet traffic. Problem goes away when signal strength is at least 3 bars. [10:13] OerHeks: ok, sounds good [10:13] i heard booting live CD is suppose to help, is that true? [10:14] or should i just go ahead and start copying? [10:16] Rhombix, not sure what you mean, with a live cd none of your files are in use.

Server support ended on April 30 2015. See http://ubottu.com/y/lucid for more details. [10:26] Village, not, as 10.04 is EOL, dead. upgrade please. [10:26] Bayangan, ok i will do it. but is it good idea to install new linux OS as freshly installed [10:26] sallu, there is a special CD for repairing the grub2 for ubuntu [10:26] Bayangan, do you have any idea about linux puppy [10:26] !grub [10:26] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [10:26] ubottu, you are a bot ? [10:26] sallu: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [10:26] sallu, I do [10:26] no need for a special cd, just use your iso and the gub manual [10:27] brothersome, how is it different from linuxmint or ubuntu distro . i am talking about linux puppy. why some of my friends suggested to check linux puppy these days [10:27] OerHeks, no way really? I dont want upgrade, on VPS spining my servers.. [10:28] OerHeks, ok i am checking the link the bot ubottu provided [10:28] sallu this is ubuntu support, distro comparing is offtopic i am afraid. [10:28] why is ubuntu samba version build against heimdal ? [10:29] irc://irc.abjects.net:6667/moviegods [10:29] !spam | vegijtha [10:29] vegijtha: Please don't spam [10:29] sry it was mistake [10:30] sallu, If you need one of the lightest distro's puppy is nice, if you have a heavy computer Linux Mint is better (IMHO) [10:30] Village, contact your vendor, they should provide fresh images [10:31] * as vpn-s are heavily tweaked [10:31] One question when i update ubuntu to newer then how i can install python-gevent? I want same on 10.04. Update really dificult.. [10:31] sallu, My website is puppylinux.eu - You can also have multiple partitions so you can use Ubuntu, LinuxMint, WIndhoos, Puppylinux on one computer - problem only is the use of grub2 [10:32] OerHeks, when i was try ubuntu newer version, then i have errors when installing LAMP [10:32] on 10.04 i have lamp, ftp, eggdrops and more, and it's working fine [10:33] brothersome, yeah i made root home swap partition while installing ubuntu on windows 7 . what if i install third OS puppy with windows 8.1 installed , ubuntu and now this puppy [10:33] <_SLM_> Hey, I have installed an application, that first wouldn´t run from the launcher. Then I launched it from terminal and now I have two icons in laucher, one that works, one that doesn´t work [10:33] OerHeks ; or do i have to buy a second card in this case ? [10:33] <_SLM_> How do I remove the bad one? [10:33] brothersome, do you think i should make another 3 partitions to install puppy [10:33] * Village going smoke a cigarette [10:33] stonky, i don't know any wifi device that caon connect 2 computers to 2 accesspoint. [10:33] OerHeks, ok thanks [10:34] caon-can [10:34] sallu, you can install puppy on the same partition as ubuntu, but you must create a file extra and run the grub2-config [10:35] brothersome, ok explain it, i will do it . you mean puppy will be using the same partitions of ubuntu root home swap ? [10:36] stonky, can you? this is beyond the scope of this channel. [10:36] maybe the guys in ##hardware can help [10:36] sallu, yes - Look for the grub2 files 10.... 20.... (names) and add one for puppy [10:37] sallu, easiest way first is to install puppy on a USB stick so you have the kernel parameters for the new file [10:38] sallu, better ask the puppylinux channel [10:38] brothersome, some one gave me a link to download puppy tahr-6.0-CE_PAE.iso @ 199mb size.. what should i do with it then ? [10:38] Problem with Ubuntu now that is uses grub2 in stead of grub [10:38] brothersome, what is the puppy linux channel name? [10:38] sallu, #puppylinux [10:38] <_SLM_> Hm. I think I used the wrong word. Not launcher. How do I remove a icon from the unity-search/select-stuff-window [10:39] brothersome, ok be right back [10:39] thanks though [10:39] how do I change the size of the mouse cursor in unbuntu 15.04? [10:39] brothersome, but what benifit you see in puppy as you inspired of it and you made your own website for it ? what made you think its special in features ? [10:40] _SLM_, right mouse > unlock from launcher === mint is now known as Guest1713 [10:40] <_SLM_> Yeah, I used the wrong word sorry. Apparantly the launcher is the programs bar on the left. I meant the unity icon in it [10:40] sallu, I am running puppylinux now, my lappy is limited, puppy is damn fast [10:40] <_SLM_> where you select or search things [10:41] _SLM_, yes, grab the icon, right mouse > unlock .. [10:41] brothersome, wow koOOol, i mostly use linux for browsing , may be hex chat , skype and nothing else. do you think puppy is more than enough for me [10:41] <_SLM_> I dont see that option [10:41] <_SLM_> It only shows me basic information. No buttons [10:41] sallu, brothersome: take the offtopic chat elsewhere please [10:41] Im running xubuntu and suddenly it has gone into some sor tof low graphics mode. I´d say is comparable to the Windows 98 color scheme settings that you sometimes get. Anyone know how this happened? [10:41] Hello everyone...i have a question [10:41] <_SLM_> when I right click, it enlarges the icon and shows me nothing useful. [10:41] Ben64, oh sorry, i am going to that channel now [10:42] Traumatizer: incorrect graphics driver usually [10:42] Traumatizer, can you share a screenshot ? [10:42] brothersome, check your pm now [10:42] may i have your attention [10:42] misho_: nope, you can ask a question and wait like everyone else [10:43] misho_, ask, wait and see [10:43] OerHeks, so i can try buy VPS and with what Ubuntu i must buy that be good for python-gevent? And or you really help me install it if i buy VPS? [10:43] Ok,then... [10:43] <_SLM_> I think ¨Search your computer and internet sources¨-window thinks it´s a document or something [10:43] <_SLM_> There is no launch-button like in the other working icon [10:43] Village: 14.04 probably is the best choice [10:43] well? [10:44] Village, that package python-gevent is in the repository [10:44] 512 RAM it's ok for python-gevent? [10:45] <_SLM_> Kinda annoys me a little bit that Unity doesnt give me anything useful there. Why show it at all if Unity doesnt know what to do with it [10:45] Johnny_Linux, old howto, still valid > http://www.upubuntu.com/2012/10/how-to-change-mouse-cursor-size-and.html [10:46] _SLM_, what application does this, exactly? [10:46] Hi [10:46] OerHeks, su now i try ( sudo apt-get install python-gevent python-psutil git vlc ) with 10.04 and i get - E: Couldn't find package python-gevent. SO with newer version be good, really? [10:46] <_SLM_> Brackets [10:47] Ben42, 512 RAM it's ok for 14.04? [10:47] Village, yes, that is good, as 10.04 is EOL, remember? [10:47] Village: you were told already that 10.04 is dead [10:47] for python-gevent ? [10:47] <_SLM_> again, this is not the launcher bar on the left where you lock/unlock active programs [10:47] I'm trying to watch shared movies from the other computer which is runned by Windows 7.Everything is normal..i have an access to the movies and folders but when i try to open with VLC it is showed to me a error message.When i copy that movie to the ubuntu PC VLC is opening normal. [10:47] I want to format an USB stick with DOS under gparted. But under new partition I don't see DOS, only FAT16, FAT 32. Any idea? [10:47] <_SLM_> This is the Unity-icon in that [10:47] How can i fix this strange situation? [10:47] Is DOS FAT 16? [10:47] <_SLM_> Where you get a list of softwar and such [10:47] misho_, we need you to quote the error message, word to word. [10:47] badboh coming up [10:48] OerHeks, i know that EOL, but it's really not intall because EOL? Or with newer version i get same Error? [10:48] xchatter: dos isn't a filesystem [10:48] It is a long log message from VLC...do you really want? [10:48] Village, you get an error, as the servers are down. [10:48] <_SLM_> That what-is-it-called shows Brackets icon twice. The old one doesnt work, the new one does [10:48] <_SLM_> But I cant remove the old one [10:48] <_SLM_> I right clicked, tried dragging it to recycle bin [10:48] misho_, share a screenshot. you don't have to type it out then. upload pic on postimage.org [10:48] Ben64, I am trying to do a BIOS update and the instructions say to ceated a DOS bootable USB stick.

[10:59] misho_, you path length is pretty long, remove all that "director cut xvid nodlab blah blah" and try again. [10:59] There should be an option to tell APT to ignore signature checking [10:59] misho_, in your other computer that is [11:00] .local/share/applications is empty other then mimeapps.list (which I opened in gedit, doesnt seem relevant) and /usr/share/applications seems to only contains 1x Brackets, not 2 [11:00] badbodh, no this is happening on ubuntu [11:01] easyOnMe, good start > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PackageManagerTroubleshootingProcedure [11:01] misho_, yes, possibly because your path/to/file is too damn long. rename folder/file as i suggested and check again. [11:01] basiclaser: Honestly... I would NOT use linux tools to fix a windows partitions... (only if you don't care that ALL data might be lost) [11:01] OerHeks: thanks [11:01] badbodh, but it should't be a problem because i open this file when it is physically on Ubuntu PC...the problem is when i try to open via shared network [11:01] badbodh, ok [11:01] minimec: ive already backed up, so the fastest route to getting this windows running again is my goal at this point [11:02] I also dont windows discs to hand [11:02] have any * [11:02] yes, problem is neither ubuntu, nor vlc, nor the file itself. that only leaves file path and samba client.

[11:12] OerHeks, i checked both already [11:12] they arent there [11:12] OerHeks, how do you clear 'recently used apps' from dash ?

[11:20] So Guys, OerHeks, Ben42, i have new VPS Ubuntu 14. [11:20] So Guys, OerHeks, Ben42, i have new VPS Ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit) [11:21] https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers [11:21] and what packages i need isntall at new Ubuntu 14.04? [11:21] that it's be ready to use.. [11:21] i have a r9 290 [11:21] Tlan: what exactly are you trying to do? so far you've just posted error messages - it would help us to know what you are trying to get done when these error messages are spat out! [11:21] running kernel 4.1.4 [11:22] when i launch steam in terminal [11:22] i get these steam errors [11:22] Village install the packages that you need, we cannot decide for you [11:22] i don't know how to fix or what they mean [11:22] Tlan, the ppa page mentions a lot of things to verify if your driver is functional. did you follow those steps ? [11:22] Tlan: so you are not getting to the steam interface? [11:23] oh the driver works [11:23] Magiobiwan, i don't taliking about ftp or some like that, but i mean pre packages who need have every Ubuntu, that it be ready to work.. [11:23] steam works fine i was playing csgo fine [11:23] no everything wroks === franchesca is now known as azamrod [11:23] i just wanted to know why i was getting these erros? [11:23] ak2766, "ERROR:renderer_main.cc(200)] Running without renderer sandbox" and "steam [0809/071632:ERROR:nss_util.cc(981)] Failed to load NSS libraries." are what he gets [11:23] i fixed a font error [11:24] oh there is another error too [11:24] MonkeyDust: so would you suggest wiping the drive, reinstalling windows and then linux again? [11:24] Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gail" [11:24] ah - those are mostly debugging messages - most likely a developer did not turn them off before release... [11:24] Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "atk-bridge" [11:24] i get those 3 errors in steam [11:25] if you run the application from the launcher/dash, then those messages are not normally seen anyways - they get logged in a log somewhere... [11:25] like "sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall" and "sudo apt-get install cvs subversion git-core mercurial" do i need install this at new vps ubuntu 14.04..? [11:25] are you guys talking to me [11:25] Tlan, install "libatk-bridge-blah blah" from synaptic/software center for third error [11:25] basiclaser yes, starting over is often easier, faster, cleaner than repairing things... [11:26] i did that [11:26] Hi all [11:26] still get it [11:26] Tlan: if the application comes up, and does what you want it to do, then simply ignore those messages... [11:26] OnkelTem, hello, [11:26] well i fixed some [11:26] what is the packages i need to fix the gtk error? [11:26] I'd like to disable swap and instead setup some watcher which would warn me if my PC is running out of RAM. Ideas? [11:27] I hate when this thing swapping [11:27] Tlan, like ak2766 said. if steam client runs, you can safely ignore them. [11:27] do you know what they mean [11:27] if it doesn't run, or crashes then you got problem [11:27] Tlan: the nss error has to do with how the system processes things like username lookups, dns resolution, etc. the system will default to other means if nss is not found - hence that error... [11:27] The problem - is how to measure that RAM is over, knowing that it is also used for file cache [11:28] ko [11:28] ok [11:28] OerHeks, Ben42, i have now new vps ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit) and i want ask what i need do, that it be ready to work, do i need instal some like "sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall" and "sudo apt-get install cvs subversion git-core mercurial"? [11:28] what about sandbox?> [11:28] Village what do you want to do with your ubuntu? development? [11:29] Tlan, join #steamlug to know exact details of steam-client. not sure folks here will know much. we mostly deal with ubuntu-specific issues. (right?) [11:30] ok [11:30] MonkeyDust, if really i want install aceproxy, if explane then "sudo apt-get install python-gevent python-psutil git vlc" [11:30] i have those gtk packages installed [11:30] let me try it:) [11:30] !find aceproxy [11:30] Package/file aceproxy does not exist in vivid [11:30] !find aceproxy trusty [11:30] Package/file aceproxy does not exist in trusty [11:32] MonkeyDust, what i need install that sudo works and Ubuntu be ready to work, because now - -bash: sudo: command not found :( [11:32] OnkelTem: As an alternative, I would consider 'zram-config'. This will create some virtual swap space in your ram... (faster than swapping on your HD). -> 'sudo apt-get install zram-config' Don't forget to '#' comment out the swap line in /etc/fstab [11:32] do i need to link ubuntu files to steam? [11:32] and MonkeyDust, don't worry i have tutorial [11:32] But now sudo dosnt work:/ === azamrod is now known as franchesca [11:33] minimec: didn't hear about that, thanks I'll give it a try [11:33] Village after you installed ubuntu, it's ready to work, ok, you can then install more programs that you need... but we cannot know what you need === franchesca is now known as pepa [11:33] Village try su to switch user... then apt-get install sudo [11:35] MonkeyDust, i don't think that it's ready to work because sudo don't works and i think i need install this - "sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall" and "sudo apt-get install cvs subversion git-core mercurial" that it's really be ready to work, or i don't need? [11:36] Village sudo should be installed by default... it looks like you have to install sudo... that's why I said: su to switch user, then apt-get install sudo [11:37] maybe at tahen 14.04 don't need sudo, because it's works without it just apt-get, but now i faced with error:/ - apt-get install python-gevent python-psutil git vlc ***and error is - E: Unable to locate package python-gevent [11:37] minimec: installed, looks good :) === pepa is now known as azamrod [11:38] MonkeyDust, i think i don't need sudo more:) and i with root why i need changhe user for install sudo? [11:38] maybe apt-get update? [11:38] Howdy all [11:38] OnkelTem: You could even combine zram and zswap (I never went that far)... https://www.netroby.com/view.php?id=3631 [11:38] Village what makes you think you don't need sudo anymore? [11:39] Village i told you twice what to do, to install sudo (sudo itself is a program) [11:39] because it works without sudo "apt-get ..." not needed "sudo apt-get ..." [11:39] minimec: ah, just realized that I should started with vm.swappiness! It is set to default 60, while the value of 0 is probably the only thing I really need [11:39] minimec: I have 16GB of RAM [11:39] hi guyz [11:40] Village you lost me, i'm not following what you are doing [11:40] MonkeyDust, thanks for your patence [11:40] OnkelTem: I see... ;) [11:40] MonkeyDust:( [11:41] does someone ever had this type of "ERROR unsupported pickle protocol: 4" ?

[13:49] so what happens when you press the key to access the bios [13:50] I understood that it might be Samsung's design fault concercing the BIOS.

If you hammer F1 and DEL at boot, do you not get the BIOS screen? [13:55] Damnsung, i have to ask, what are you expecting to do in the bios [13:57] Well, I was hoping to edit the boot order because it seems to ignore the USB completely [13:57] And I'm also kinda worried how can things change like this only because of installing an OS [13:57] F2 worked perfectly before this [13:58] how can I access mac partition in ubuntu [13:58] Damnsung: Could it be that windows7 was installed the 'UEFI-way', and your Ubuntu installation was done in BIOS legacy mode?

[15:12] ubuntu972, win7, or 8 ? [15:13] it's 10, but I have a 7 disk avalible [15:13] so it would just be a lot of reinstalling drivers, redownloading things and dealing with settings [15:13] ubuntu972, usually solve my mess with the installation media [15:13] sadly, because it's 10 I can't just fix it with the disk. [15:14] Since it wants me to actually format to repair [15:14] ubuntu972, :-( [15:14] because it's 10, maybe it's still a bit unstable, hence your problem [15:16] I know the partition I want to have the label, but I'm not actually sure if ubuntu can put the label on it [15:17] ubuntu972 gparted can do that [15:18] MonkeyDust How exactly? [15:18] I want the dev/sda2 to be my C drive, since I broke that I think by mistake in windows. [15:19] ubuntu972 linux doesnt use letters A B C like windows [15:19] I'm aware of that. [15:19] ubuntu972 find out what partitions contains windows (NTFS) and label that [15:20] re i'm back [15:20] ubuntu972 have you tried gparted, in the live session? [15:20] kadiro: welcome [15:20] what's the problem ubuntu972 ? [15:20] I'm at gparted now, I'm just not really sure how to use it, as I'm still pretty new to linux everything. [15:20] thk's bujji [15:21] kadiro, I broke the label in windows and now it thinks my C drive is an F drive [15:21] ubuntu972 and you can see the windows partition? [15:21] I can see all my files in it, and I know where it is [15:21] ubuntu972 is that all, rename a partition from C to F ? [15:21] it shows all my files are where they should be, but because windows doesn't read it as a C drive, it has no idea how to boot it or something [15:21] ubuntu972 can you boot Windows? [15:22] No, windows won't boot. [15:22] ubuntu972: i think the latest windows have 2 partitions one about booting and other one for file systems [15:22] ubuntu972 and how is ubuntu involved? is that a dual boot? [15:22] I'm wanting to dual boot it onto my C drive as well, but it's a live USB atm [15:22] windows 10 is compabiltity with Ubuntu 12.04? [15:23] hi [15:23] 14.04, and yes and no [15:23] ubuntu972 ubuntu is not installed? then i guess you should ask in ##windows [15:23] compabiltity is what way?

[17:36] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [17:37] I have a laptop with ubuntu 14.04.3 and the pc freezes a lot of times [17:37] especially with the games [17:40] hello, I tried following directions online to fix my power off issue (the computer won't power off when I shutdown on ubuntu 14.04 64 bit), but now it won't boot up! [17:44] SOLIDPIZZA, what did you do ? [17:44] There isn’t a software package called “acroread” in your current software sources [17:44] how to add or where to add by which commands? [17:44] Guys, is there any working AutoHotKey alternative for ubuntu? [17:44] ivanx507: if you have access to that machine via ssh you could try to prvoke such a freeze and check if you can access the log files in /var/log. You would know why it freezes and whether it is the Desktop session that freezes or the whole machine. I guess you have some swap space, otherwise your machine might simply run out of memory... [17:45] ioria, I had this problem since I installed it and fixed it by adding a ton of nomodset noacpi stuff to the default-GRUB-cmdline options in the grub cfg [17:45] but I removed it to fix power off which didn't work [17:46] that's what I did up to this point [17:46] SOLIDPIZZA, did you edit grub.cfg ? [17:46] ioria, yes of course [17:47] how ca i change my mac address [17:47] bujji, you can spoof it but you can't change it [17:47] SOLIDPIZZA, grub.cfg # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE [17:47] bujji, that address is soldered straight onto the card itself [17:47] physically [17:48] hence the alternative name "physical address" [17:48] ioria, oh, wait let me check if that's the file I edited [17:48] SOLIDPIZZA: if so how can i spoof [17:49] bujji, I think there is a package called macchanger, don't lose your original address though. [17:49] Hi [17:49] minimec how i can do that :| ? [17:49] SOLIDPIZZA, check /etc/default/grub ... if there's something weird [17:49] sloantothebone: hi [17:49] bujji why do you want to change your mc address? [17:49] Hi [17:49] I never used SSH [17:50] ioria, that's the file I changed actually not grub.cfg [17:50] SOLIDPIZZA, ok [17:50] let me try to get a 12.04 usb booted to take a look at it again [17:50] maybe if I switch it back then at least it will turn on again [17:50] to know that [17:51] SOLIDPIZZA, so now the kernel line is reset to default ? [17:51] bujji, for educational purposes? [17:51] SOLIDPIZZA: yes though [17:53] ioria, do you know? is it shift to access grub at boot? [17:54] ivanx507: well first you can check if you have some messages in /var/log/kern-crash.log or /var/log/Xorg.1.log after a reboot. you can use any text editor for that. [17:55] ivanx507: with ssh running you could login to that computer from another machine anc d try to access these log files right after the 'freeze' happened. [17:56] what is openCL? [17:56] I saw LO [17:56] SOLIDPIZZA, yes [17:57] SOLIDPIZZA, sometimes you have to be a bit persistent [17:57] I will try , i have a netbook with xubuntu === Blaster is now known as Guest48590 [17:59] ivanx507: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSystemCrash [18:00] SOLIDPIZZA: how can i assign new mac addr(macchanger -m '---' wlan0 === shawniverson_ is now known as shawniverson [18:01] bujji, read the manual page use man macchanger [18:01] using* [18:02] SOLIDPIZZA: if i change can i get it back original [18:02] bujji, I don't know. [18:03] yes, it doens't actually change it, so it will change back [18:03] it spoofs it [18:04] SOLIDPIZZA: do i need to follow specific format to change iit [18:05] Hi guys.

[18:07] SOLIDPIZZA: any info on that ? [18:07] bujji, hexadecimal means it uses 0-9 and A-F. the address consists of eight, two didgit hexadecimal numbers [18:07] separated by colons [18:07] for instance, FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF [18:08] hi, when installing the proprietary nvidia display drivers on 14.04, what is the difference between "version 346.82 from nvidia-346" and "version 346.82 from nvidia-346-updates"? i'd like to get the latest one available, but they both have the same version number [18:08] I believe that is the broadcast mac address however, idk what would happen if you change to that [18:09] SOLIDPIZZA: let me try n come [18:13] hi [18:14] bujji, in case you're interested, the first four are the device manufacturer id, and the last four are the unique device identifier === EREVAN_ is now known as EREVAN [18:16] SOLIDPIZZA:I GOT THAT(macchanger -l) === EREVAN is now known as Guest40450 [18:16] bujji, do you mean to say that it worked? === Tsunami1 is now known as Guest51802 [18:17] anyone know how to force ubunto to do 1366x768 ?

[18:18] stubblefield, open the ubuntu search and search for drivers [18:18] under system settings or what [18:18] think so [18:19] bujji, do you know how to take the interface down and back up?

Hmm and it still seems to work if i use like ls or some generic command as a test. Seems its just this drush command that isn't doing it.

But if I had to guess, that is the case, especially if it's working with everything else. [20:15] phelix, I thought so, I probably of no help, just wanted it clear, make sure you show the exact commands you're using in the inquires.

[20:28] Nokaji: bit of tongue in cheek there. #ubuntu-offtopic is the place for non support discussions :-) [20:29] I'm just trying to make it so that the launcher bar is only on one monitor [20:29] fair enough, I did have my tabs in pidgin the wrong way around, my off-topic tab being normally to the right so maybe that threw me [20:32] the_count: 'apt' is the new re-constructed 'apt-get' It has added fetures . [20:33] Bashing-om: So basically(I loath that term) it is newer and better? And now on to Vivid's Kernel... [20:33] Okay I just used xrandr to change the primary monitor and it worked [20:34] All the windows still disappeared but I didnt have to accept anything [20:34] the_count: Ready to proceed ? We want to make sure there is room for the new kernel, ' df -h | pasteninit ' .// And yeah ! I prefer 'apt' . [20:34] hey everybody. i have a bluetooth problem on my thinkpad t400. this is a new 15.04 install, i zpdated bluez and bluedevil from the ppas. bluetooth works fine on the console (hcitool), but bluedevil still states that no bt adapters are found. also, in the system settings there is no bluetooth symbol. what do? [20:34] anyone got any clues on getting my 1366x768 resolution back ? [20:35] the_count: typo ' df -h | pastebinit ' . [20:36] Bashing-om: I was wondering [20:36] minimec: the partition is a usb [20:37] Bashing-om: Shall I install pastebinit? And what is it for? [20:38] the_count: Whatever pastebin site you have been using is fine . I just did not notice you were not using ours . [20:40] Bashing-om: I did nt realize there was a Pastebin program, so I was confized, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12042938/ [20:40] Hi guys! Do i need to add anything special in ubuntu to get fastcgi lighttpd and python working? My python app runs when invoked on cli (flask app) - lighttpd just dies and gives 404 [20:40] phelix: I just crawled the logs. Did you find a solution for your problem? what about something like 'locate linuz /boot 2>&1 >output.log' [20:41] ivanx507: I see. So no hardware problems. ;) [20:41] Bashing-om: I had been copying it to the ubuntu Paste site manually before, that makes it much easier. [20:42] minimec: well they internet gone for a little time and the game work again [20:43] minimec: Doyou think that the wifi driver could be the problem? [20:43] the_count: Look'n good, plenty of overhead , Here goes. let's TRY ' sudo apt-get install linux-generic-vivid libgl1-mesa-glx-vivid xserver-xorg-vivid linux-image-generic-vivid ' let's see if that flies . [20:43] ivanx507: ;) But nice that we talked about it. At least you what 'ssh' is know, and how to 'pastebin' ;) [20:44] I have an update error that's leaving a red danger box in the upper info messages area on the screen. when i click it. it tells me "the update information is outdated. this may be caused by network problems... ect" [20:44] minimec: you have reason xD [20:44] but when i do an update, it doesnt have any issues. [20:44] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12042988/ [20:45] the_count: look'n at http://paste.ubuntu.com/12042988/. [20:45] oh this means i have out of date repos [20:45] Melio: please run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" and put it into a pastebin [20:46] the_count: And ? Did they all run and complete ? [20:46] No, thate paste was supposed to show it, All four said they were unable to locate the packages [20:47] http://pastebin.com/Wdp8v2QG [20:48] k1l_, http://pastebin.com/Wdp8v2QG this should explain it. out of date repos [20:48] hey everybody. i have a bluetooth problem on my thinkpad t400. this is a new 15.04 install, i zpdated bluez and bluedevil from the ppas. bluetooth works fine on the console (hcitool), but bluedevil still states that no bt adapters are found. also, in the system settings there is no bluetooth symbol. what do? [20:48] the_count: Lemme check and find the correct packages ..My refernce was from 12.04 to 14.04 rather than from 14.04 to 15.04 kernel stack . [20:48] Melio: yes, the ole.wolf/rarcrack/ PPA is not available [20:48] !ppa-purge | Melio [20:48] Melio: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [20:48] bashing-om: that my be the problem [20:50] mw: Why did you need the ppa for bluez and bluedevil? So the problem might be the ppa? [20:51] the_count: I miss-thunk, do it as ' sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-vivid libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-lts-vivid linux-image-generic-lts-vivid ' . [20:53] Bashing-om: Started 303 megbytes to go... Why did you use apt-get this time? [20:53] Bashing-om: do they have different capabilities> [20:56] I found the ppa file and remove the ppa file from /etc/apt/sources.list.d in newer versions of Ubuntu. [20:56] so that worked well [20:56] ppa-purge i guess coulda worked, but didnt use it [20:57] Melio, always use purge, that was a single package, many bring in dependencies that can be an issue, when not in the regular install. [20:57] Bashing-om: Finished [20:59] the_count: I use what I know works ( for the mpst part ) I have not 'apt'd the kernels and Xserver stuff . Next we need to update the new stack and check with grub for any errors . [21:00] Melio: well, now you got that ppa package still installed and you will never get any updates for it anymore. ppa-purge would have solved that issue [21:00] the_count: Let's check .. ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo update-grub ' . IF all looiks good and clean ... then and only then reboot to see if we come up on the new -19 kernel . [21:00] Bashing-om: I ask because when I go to do it on my own some day I want to do it right... [21:00] [21:00] k1l_, I'm not worried, rar cracking is a dismal and unreliable way to recover a password in a rar file [21:01] Woops. [21:01] even if you compile rar cracking tools that go multi-threaded, it doesnt speed up anything but failure [21:01] so no point in it [21:01] thank you for your help, ubuntu is great [21:01] Melio: its not about rarcrack. its aabout you removing PPAs the right way. [21:02] the_count: In this the curve of learning .. The system has the "manual" installed .. any command you want to verify/check/learn: ' man ' . Works a treat . [21:02] Bashing-om: I'm rebooting now, should be signed back in within 30 seconds... [21:03] 30 second call [21:03] tick tock [21:04] Ok, maybe 45... Haven't started yet [21:04] wileee: Smoke break ! [21:04] I'm vaping as we speak [21:04] minimec: sorry i did not see you. i tried updating them because it did not work before either. the new versions did not bring anything though [21:05] it would be cool if you had ubuntu bootable on your vaporization thing [21:05] like data storage [21:05] recharge, persistant ubuntu [21:05] ;) [21:05] it would be cyberpunk a bit :) [21:05] Whas that fast enough? [21:05] Was [21:06] The other one didn't sign out though [21:07] mw: ok. there is 'blueman' as alternative bluetooth manager gui. I am not a KDE user, so I cannot help you with bluedevil. [21:08] Am I heard now? [21:09] the_count_1, If you see you, we do too. [21:09] Is there a way to extend the number of commands saved in terminal history? [21:09] boriseto: Yes, set HISTORY_SIZE accordingly. [21:09] Bashing-om: For some reason IRC didn't sign out the_count, so I had to make a ne won [21:10] bashing-om: new one [21:10] the_count_1: Yeah .. let's check what we have .. ' ls -al / ; la -al /boot ' to see that grub has configuered , and show what you are now booting for the kernel ' uname -r ; . [21:11] Bashing-om, I'm going to sign back in, the_count finally logged off... [21:13] Bashing-om, I'm going to imput those commands now [21:14] the_count: K; [21:14] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12043308/ [21:15] Bashing-om: 3.19.0-25-generic [21:16] the_count: Wierd ; but the kernel is there " vmlinuz-3.19.0-25-generic " but grub did not configure it . try again ' sudo update-grub ' .. we want to see symlinks to the new and old kernels . [21:17] Hi everyone [21:17] the_count: Wires crossed, ' ls -al / ' are 4 sets of symlinks shown ? [21:18] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12043346/ [21:18] minimec: ok, thank you anyway. i will gibe blueman a try [21:18] Everyone knows Device manager on Windows...but is there a similar app for Linux where it is showed graphicaly in list every device connected to the PC [21:18] the_count: grub looks happy . [21:19] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12043360/ [21:20] the_count: Hey hey ... look'n great ! .. bet ya can shut down and do a cold boot and come up on the new -19 kernel . [21:21] Ok, one sec [21:24] Ok, Bashing-om, It usually shuts down faster than it starts up, I'd say that was a sign [21:24] Bashing-om: 3.19.0-25-generic === KaosCreator is now known as KaosMan === KaosMan is now known as KaosCreator === rizal is now known as mrR [21:25] Bashing-om: be back in 15 min === mrR is now known as Guest52827 === Guest52827 is now known as rizal [21:26] the_count: I say this is a done deal . Bear in mind vivid goes EOL in Jan , If the package manager does not deal with the upgrade to willy's stack, this proceedure will have to be repeated . [21:27] Bashing-om, Thank you very much, I appreciate your time spent on my behalf. Look foreward to talking to you again! [21:28] the_count: Open source ! You will pass it on . [21:29] bashing-om: I will pass it on... I'll be back in 15 min or so, I have one more question... [21:30] the_count: K ; just ask . Help is what we do . === octavian is now known as Guest15560 [21:50] anyone have any idea how to get my display back to 1366 [21:51] whenever i set what seems to be the right xrandr modes the display goes blank and says 'invalid mode' [21:51] hi guys, after i powered off an usb stick drive I can t access its content [21:51] how can I access it again? [21:52] stubblefield: pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log - probably some graphics quirk going on [21:52] Guest15560: flash drives aren't 'powered off' - can you be more clear? [21:53] Guest15560, good start https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilesystemTroubleshooting [21:53] it all depends on the partitiontype [21:53] could anyone help me with a dpkg dependency loop issue? [21:54] Wurmphlegm: does that come with a pastebin? [21:54] daftykins any advice on what to do with this info [21:55] i can see the old version that mentions 1366 and the new version that does not [21:55] Let me see what i can pull up [21:55] stubblefield, what did you do before this happened? [21:55] absolutely nothing, i just rebooted [21:55] stubblefield: i said pastebin it [21:56] !paste [21:56] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [21:56] the same thing happened the other day and i got it back after just rebooting various times [21:56] daftykins: ok so i was trying to install libgomp1 (4.9) for a piece of planetary imaging software called Siril. v4.9 of libgomp1 was required, but it wont install due to unment dependencies. [21:57] daftykins: but now it's just leaving it unconfigured and says "Is to be installed"..although i dont want to deal with siril anymore. [21:57] daftykins: I opened Disks app and clicked on the power button [21:58] daftykins: Although if i try and remove it, it wants to take out my entire cinnamon desktop, and a bunch of other things. [21:58] Wurmphlegm: no that's still not a pastebin of the situation [21:59] i don't want to see words, i want to see output! :) [21:59] Bashing-om, How would I go about installing this: https://github.com/pfps/yoga-laptop [21:59] Guest15560: so go unplug it and plug it back in. [21:59] daftykins - http://pastebin.com/e1WWYjsh [21:59] daftykins: using df -h doesn t show it either [22:00] http://pastebin.ca/3096286 [22:00] daftykins: tried that too :( [22:00] the_count, read the page "Probably not needed in 3.16 or newer kernels" [22:00] Guest15560: well of course df doesn't. [22:01] stubblefield: desktop with a VGA monitor? [22:01] Wurmphlegm: what ubuntu is that exactly? [22:01] it's actually Linux Mint 17.1 [22:01] yeah [22:01] it's not just that i can't get over 1024 resolution [22:01] Wurmphlegm: please ask the mint support how to solve that depencies since they handle the repo stuff differently than ubuntu [22:02] it flickers and the display system thing says unknown [22:02] http://pastebin.ca/3096291 [22:02] daftykins: but it used to show it... [22:02] no one in mint seems to be saying anything [22:02] Guest15560: it only shows MOUNTED file systems, totally pointless enquiry to run when you've just powered it off [22:02] Wurmphlegm: see if their forums provide more support. [22:02] well this is a flat screen whatever with hdmi available, i guess it's a tv [22:02] ive been searching for hours now [22:02] stubblefield: why are you still using VGA in 2015? [22:02] Wurmphlegm: #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org , try there. [22:03] Wurmphlegm: The channel here on freenode is small. [22:03] i guess i'm not aware what else i should be using [22:03] Wurmphlegm, ubuntu provides cinamon-desktop too, so switch to avoid such issues. [22:03] it's worked till now [22:03] stubblefield: a digital connection such as DVI would be nice [22:03] daftykins: I see. so how can I mount it again? [22:04] Guest15560: you don't because... oh dear this is very circular. good luck [22:04] i guess it would, i don't think i have those cables on hand though [22:04] stubblefield: did you try an older kernel in grub if that works like before? [22:04] oh yeah this could be due to an update i guess [22:04] stubblefield: check if your display even has the connection [22:04] i dunno how to do that though [22:05] Is there a particular room I can ask some software licensing question? [22:05] well the monitor has hdmi, spdif and usb inputs [22:05] k1l_ - how do i do that ? [22:05] tester_1: er, well what possible software licensing has got to do with ubuntu o0 [22:06] stubblefield: press shift on boot, so you get to the grub menu. then choose an older kernel [22:06] tester_1, try #gnu, especially if you mean the GPL. [22:06] the_count_: I was awol .. lemme catch up and I be back at ya . [22:07] daftykins, I suspect some ubuntu users will have expertise on the matter. Clearly it is not a Ubuntu specific question that's why I did not ask it here. BotchlaB, thank you. [22:07] np [22:07] daftykins: would you mind telling me how to power it on again?\ [22:08] Guest15560: sorry i gave up. [22:08] tester_1: cool, use #ubuntu-offtopic in future perhaps [22:10] Oerheks: Lenovo yoga 2 Pro has major resume problems amongse other things that aren't fixed by the new kernel [22:13] ah i see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1465974 [22:13] Launchpad bug 1465974 in lightdm (Ubuntu) "LightDM lock screen unresponsive after resume from suspend (Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro)" [Undecided,New] [22:13] daftykins: ok. I used sudo mkdosfs -F 32 -I /dev/sdb and that bring it alive again :D [22:14] the_count_: Looks to be rather iffy. Test now that you have vivid's stack installed. This kernel supports newer hardware and has many fixes . IF you must yoga-laptop. I would do so from a dual boot . [22:16] Bashing-om: Ok, I might try that, and another question, I installed ubuntu and shrunk my windows partition, neglecting to disable fastboot in windows, do you have any Idea how to fix that? [22:17] How can i make subbot auth with nickserv? [22:17] NGC3982: #freenode for questions about the network [22:18] It's actually neither ubuntu or the network, afaik. [22:18] * NGC3982 tries to find someone somewhere who knows about this. [22:19] the_count_, if you didn't disable fastboot, you could not install ubuntu, nor boot from usb/sdcard. [22:20] OerHeks: But, I still did install Ubuntu with FastBoot enamled [22:20] Hi [22:21] Oerheks: Maybe it is not supposed to happed, but I was able to do it. [22:21] happen [22:21] I guess, you would not have seen any windows partition, and ubuntu used it all, in a non uefi install ? [22:22] the_count_: I am not Windows literate, but Windows fast boot is "hibernation" . IF you are too boot linux then make sure Windows is shut down properly . [22:22] k1l_: that doesn't work i tried going way back in versions [22:22] also grub itself shows up at the smaller resolution which is not normal [22:24] Bashing-om: I recently installed linux, I shrunk the windows partition with gparted without disabling fastboot, I was able to then install linux. I was wondering how to recover my windows partition now that I messed it up [22:28] there's no difference in the current and old Xorg logs except 1024 vs 1366 [22:28] the_count_: That I think is a UEFI thing .. TJ-, erric^^ ot ithers are better qualified to offer advise. If Windows is installed UEFI and ubuntu MBR on the same hard drive, the two boot schemes are not compatible. But I do know it is fixable . [22:29] i wonder if the monitor is damaged or something [22:29] or the cable [22:30] Bashing-om: Thanks for your help, I'll get it figured out one of these days, it's not super important rightnow. [22:31] the_count_: If ya want to boot Windows, it is important . [22:33] Bashing-om: I don't have any pressing need now, i have got along for three months now, and liking Linux, I had a friend at school that told me all year that I should be using linux and I think I finally made the switch... [22:33] Bashing-om: I don't have anything important there currently. === offsec is now known as Guest61642 [22:40] I'm curious does anyone know how to install Linux on a UEFI system? I can't for the life of me figured that out. It's been some time since I've tried but not sure if there has since been a workaround. [22:40] the_count_: :) I ditched Windows 10 years back - or so ; I have never looked back . [22:41] Bashing-om, I think that'll be me too, and I hope you know, WIndows 10 wasn't around years ago... [22:42] Agent1918, nothing special. just use an installation media created EFI compatible [22:42] * wileee evilly cackles while looks at the channel in w10 [22:43] !efi | Agent1918 pretty basic [22:43] Agent1918 pretty basic: 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 [22:43] the_count_: Different strokes for different folks. My wife recently upgraded to Win10 - graphics work station and Adobe in 'buntu was not cutting it - she likes Win10 . [22:44] Bashing-om, Had to a resize in winders so doing an image, than back to home linux. ;) [22:44] Bashing-om: I agree, I would like to try out Windows 10 though, see how it works, etc.. [22:46] Alright, thanks. [22:46] I'll check it out. [22:49] Anyone here use irssi? [22:49] the_count_: I do use irssi . [22:50] Bashing-om, I just found it a while ago, how do you use it?

[22:56] the_count: right-click, choose open link [22:57] the_count: On my system in irssi, a double click on the link "copies" . [22:58] I can't imagine having to copy/paste to open a hyperlink. [23:00] i also use irssi btw [23:01] unless your in a non-gui environment however, you would have to copy/paste i imagine [23:04] LtL: Nope, right click highlights much more than the link for me in my irssi client. For me a double click on the link to copy . [23:05] Bashing-om: if i hover over a proper link, right-click... i get a menu, i choose open link. ymmv [23:07] my mouse buttons are reversed, but i think right-click is the one, it's left for me. [23:08] id shoot myself if i had to copy/paste but thats just me :) [23:09] LtL: Maybe the version, as I am still holding onto " Irssi: Client: irssi 0.8.15 (20100403 1617) " :) [23:11] Bashing-om: i've used irssi for years, they all do it, this i 0.8.17, debian's oem version does it as well as the backport, i cant remember it ever not working [23:13] Bashing-om: its really odd yours doesn't [23:16] LtL: The terminal that irssi is running in has alot to do with it . [23:18] Bashing-om: i was just going to suggest that [23:18] i'm strictly a gnome guy, tried them all [23:20] LtL: :) I prefer light and functional . If I do not use it, I do not want it on my system. ( xterm ) for my terminal . [23:22] Bashing-om: good logic indeed [23:44] How do I make a bootable USB disk (NOT to boot on a mac) on a Mac?

[23:52] EriC^^, all the logs are on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2289974 [23:52] i think you missed that [23:53] LizardmanSC: it's pretty safe as long as you have an idea about what you're doing [23:53] would i get errors or would it be safer to just put the computer in legacy bios mode and allow ubuntu to remove windows [23:53] !uefi | LizardmanSC [23:53] LizardmanSC: 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 [23:53] eriC^^ i know how to install systems.. I've done it with windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, xp, and ubuntu 10.10 [23:53] uefi works fine with ubuntu, read the above ^ [23:53] lizardmansc, today I've already installed debian and mint, was considering red hat next, debian's got hardly no gpu driver support, mint is spyware like windows 10 I got banned from mint for accusing the devs of being nsa pawns because they won't share the root password that is on every mint copy [23:54] I'm now considering ubuntu because ati supports drivers for it [23:54] SolarNRG is it pretty easy to remove as well? [23:54] thanks OerHeks [23:54] if i were you id make like 4 partitions on your hard drive and test drive a few linuxes so if you ever screw up one copy you've got another backup copy you can fix the other with without having to spend hours reinstallign debian jesse the millionth time [23:55] as long as you don't touch windows 10 you're cool [23:55] that's rubbish [23:56] EriC^^, OerHeks :sudo apt-get install python > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12044584/ [23:56] but my experience is that removal of python 2.7x is a disaster. manually downloading packages from an other machine as you cannot get a secure connection someway [23:56] can i go su in ubuntu? [23:56] mint won't let me [23:56] I think that's evil [23:57] SolarNRG: support questions only, no paranoid delusions please [23:57] aruns: type sudo dpkg --purge --force-remove-reinstreq ntop [23:57] OerHeks, Yes you are right its actually disaster, I paid heavily for it. my gnome and everything imp working environment is reduced to ashes [23:58] This is not a paranoid delusion, if I can't get root access to my own hardware I paid for that to me is a serious security risk [23:58] you're showing an obvious misunderstanding of how root functions on ubuntu and its' derivatives [23:58] !root [23:58] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [23:58] !noroot | SolarNRG [23:58] SolarNRG: We do not support setting a root password. You're free to do it on your own machine, but please don't offer instructions on how to set a root password or ask for help with setting it. See !root and !wfm for more information. [23:59] !root [23:59] no, the factoids are already above - no need to type the bot triggers again [23:59] are you telling me that ubuntu also doesn't let you have root access just like mint?
