[00:00] EriC^^, OerHeks : sudo dpkg --purge --force-remove-reinstreq ntop > output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12044612/ [00:01] SolarNRG: no, you don't know how to use it is all. [00:01] it is all part of the security-network-auth, maybe you cannot even ping your host. [00:01] daftykins: ok in debian I go su, it asks me for a password bam, I'm superuser I can do whatever I want [00:02] yeah, same with ubuntu and Mint - only "sudo -i" instead [00:02] in mint I go su it asks me for a password but I never had the chance to set it [00:02] SolarNRG, the ubuntu way is: sudo -i # for that terminal session only. [00:02] SolarNRG: so i would recommend that you do some reading to understand how to use it, instead of just kicking up a big fuss claiming these paranoid ideas. [00:02] you do not use 'su' on ubuntu and its' derivatives. [00:02] when i install ubuntu, will i get the option to set my own root password? [00:02] no because it's not designed to be used with a root password. [00:03] no, that is answered already with the urls [00:03] so is sudo -i the same thing as su in debian? [00:03] no [00:03] what's the difference? [00:03] you need to do some reading up on sudo :) [00:04] Is reinstallation of ubuntu only solution left [00:04] SolarNRG: please read what the bot said already up [00:04] Does any way can fix this problem [00:04] aruns: try sudo dpkg --remove --force-all ntop [00:04] SolarNRG is it easy to remove though? [00:05] LizardmanSC: if you don't mind formatting your hard drive and losing your data, no it's very easy [00:05] what os are you using currently? [00:05] I'd only partition it :3 [00:05] I'm windows 8.1 [00:07] EriC^^, sudo dpkg --remove --force-all ntop > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12044642/ [00:07] LizardmanSC: you could just try ubuntu from a flash drive to start with, no reason to install immediately [00:07] aruns, is that service still running? sudo service ntop stop [00:08] is it hard to split partition an ntfs file system so some of the disk is ext4? [00:08] SolarNRG: resize it from Windows [00:08] aruns: also try sudo rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/info/atftpd.* [00:08] sudo service ntop stop [00:08] /etc/init.d/ntop: 3: /var/lib/ntop/init.cfg: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string [00:08] might be smart to do a defrag on windows first [00:09] Hi, I have a problem. I'm trying to install the latest version of ubuntu via usb, but when I select and choose install, the pc restart and everything starts over. Someone had the same problem and know how to solve it? (hope I don't disturb) [00:09] aruns: sorry, sudo rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/info/ntop.* [00:09] ignore the previous command [00:10] LEO037: hash your download and remake your flash drive, it could be bad. [00:10] thanks, I'll try immediatly [00:10] !md5 [00:10] 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 [00:10] LEO037: see above [00:11] EriC^^: it worked, Voila !! [00:11] Hey all. If I know that a given password is correct for my wireless but a new ubuntu install will not connect to that router, what else might I look at? [00:11] But is there any way to get unity and gnome back [00:11] I am on one laptop and connected but this new install won't connect. They both connect to the teathering app for my phone [00:11] aruns: ok, type cat /var/log/apt/history.log | nc termbin.com 9999 [00:11] this install is 14.04.3 [00:12] xpistos: wireless channel and WPA1 vs. 2, AES vs. TKIP [00:12] the usual [00:13] EriC^^:cat /var/log/apt/history.log | nc termbin.com 9999 [00:13] http://termbin.com/6t6r [00:13] WPA2 AES [00:13] and I have g only [00:13] xpistos: yeah so change it to experiment is what i'm saying. [00:15] could there be something wrong with the actual install itself as well? [00:15] aruns: type wget -O ~/packages http://termbin.com/5z5c [00:16] aruns: then type xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall [00:16] aruns: wait, copy and paste the packages from the above termbin [00:16] it might contain html [00:17] ah it doesn't, you can use wget === gub is now known as Guest82124 [00:19] xpistos1: yes bad wifi driver perhaps. read your logs as to why it fails to connect. [00:19] EriC^^, can you retype the 4th last command in our conversation, I cant scroll back [00:20] aruns: wget -O ~/packages http://termbin.com/5z5c && xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall [00:21] EriC^^ : Thanks === Blaster is now known as Guest52112 [00:22] I think I love you all, thanks. [00:23] EriC^^ : Read output > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12044719/ [00:23] aruns: oh, it downloaded it with the html, it didn't on my pc [00:24] hi folks, I'm having an issue where my internet stuff isn't starting at boot. Anyone know what's up? [00:24] still nice and vague finetundra_ :) is this a desktop install? [00:24] aruns: type nano ~/packages, and go to http://termbin.com/5z5c and copy and paste the packages there, then type xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall [00:24] daftykins: laptop. Sorry for being vague. [00:24] ubuntu misdetects my headphones and i only get audio on left channel. How do i change that? [00:25] EriC^^: Okay, but i dont understand its relevance still [00:25] finetundra_: yeah but ubuntu desktop? [00:25] GUI etc [00:25] daftykins: KDE [00:25] ok so kubuntu desktop [00:25] aruns: ctrl+a to select all, shift+ctrl+v to paste, ctrl+o to save [00:25] daftykins: yeah [00:25] I guess [00:25] aruns: those are the packages that got removed with python [00:25] is there a way to resize my Ubuntu install? I want to try to dual boot with a different distro alongside but when I setup Ubuntu I used the whole HDD [00:25] It's on a laptop thhough [00:25] finetundra_: do you have your network manager icon? [00:26] lol that doesn't matter. [00:26] yeah [00:26] bratchley, of course, you can run gparted and move stuff around [00:26] EriC^^ : okay , WOnderful [00:26] Melio: do I have to boot from DVD or something? [00:26] typically yes [00:26] finetundra_: so what happens when you try to look at available wireless networks, or plug a network cable in and make use of it? [00:26] but if you are installing to dual boot. windows goes on first. then linux [00:27] daftykins: nothing. Doesn't detect anything [00:27] and make sure you plan your partitions ahead of time because it makes for less work [00:27] I asked in the kubuntu chat the other day and was told to run sudo modprobe iwlwifi, but that's only good till reboot [00:28] finetundra_: alright but it *does* work? [00:28] daftykins: after the command yeah [00:28] finetundra_: ok so put iwlwifi on its' own line in /etc/modules and it'll load on each boot. [00:29] bratchley, yes, boot the live iso and use gparted. [00:32] i only get sound on the left channel when using headphones. how do i fix that? [00:32] daftykins: ok, that worked. [00:32] EriC^^: But the problem is termbin.com is banned by Indian government, Hence can you use pastebin to copy content of termbin.com [00:32] but now I'm curious, how did this happen in the first place? [00:32] finetundra_: no idea. [00:33] your machine sounds crazy [00:33] daftykins: sounds about right [00:33] probably is at this point [00:33] perhaps you're running a non-standard kernel? [00:33] aruns: sure, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12044776/ [00:34] Hello everyone, I am looking for a way to disable my laptop keyboard with a simple command line. The reason for this is that I have a convertible laptop, which screen can be folded 360 in "tablet mode", and the keyboard becomes very annoying, then... I would consider any option, like setting a fake keyboard display and calling it with setxkbmap. Any ideas ? [00:34] EriC^^: Thanx for special effort [00:34] daftykins: kernel is 3.13.0-58-generic [00:34] aruns: this is better http://pastebin.com/JAc5mCQ2 [00:34] it's easier to copy [00:34] finetundra_: hmm so close to being up to date [00:34] i'm on -61 here [00:36] daftykins: I don't see a kernel update listed in the software updater [00:36] avilba: xinput can disable it [00:36] use dist-upgrade from the terminal [00:37] daftykins: that would run an upgrade no? [00:37] Greetings ubuntu [00:37] to a different version such as 15.04 [00:37] ? [00:37] finetundra_: no. [00:37] Anyone know solution to fixing a missing /sbin/init file [00:37] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [00:37] ? [00:37] EriC^^: thanks, I'll have a look there [00:37] this is my last hope as im looking at hardware failure [00:37] FearDread, where did it come from? [00:38] daftykins: command not found [00:38] @ compdoc on boot [00:38] Ok well using the 14.04.3 usb didn't connect wither so. could there be something else? like daftykins said maybe 14.04.3 only uses a version of WPA my router doesn't like? [00:38] even when booting into recovery it gives me missing /sbin/init error [00:38] its an ubuntu system file? [00:38] aye [00:38] can you boot the live dvd? [00:38] belive ubunut uses the init file for startup scripts [00:38] aye [00:38] xpistos: no, not the OS - the *driver* for your wireless card [00:39] what dose SMART say about the drive? [00:39] ran fsck on the enitre partition and fixed all blocks and inodes with errors [00:39] does [00:39] even mounted the partition and copied the /sbin/init file from the live cd [00:39] FearDread: it's a part of upstart [00:39] correct [00:39] FearDread: boot a live session and share the SMART info from your disk. [00:39] daftykins: I had 12.04 installed on it first and that worked with the proprietary driver [00:39] daftykins: I am checking what this one is [00:40] that's nice [00:41] I ran SMART disk util and its reporting iminent harddisk failure, but not sure how thats possible with a WD white label hardrive thats not even 4 years old. Its probably just a failing disk, wanted to tripple check though lol [00:42] is there an option in the fsck command to force all rewrites, meaning i dont want to manually hit "yes" everytime [00:42] it asks for a rewite [00:42] rewrite ^ [00:43] FearDread: boot a live session and come back. [00:43] FearDread: attempting an fsck on a drive in that state is utterly silly [00:44] in fact i'd use stronger words to describe what that action is, in normal circumstances [00:44] im on different computer, but im pretty sure the drive is just going bad, thanx guys [00:44] time to replace my HD, sigh* what a pain in the butt [00:44] so show the smartctl output [00:44] sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX [00:45] no point running fsck at all [00:45] its probably /dev/sda [00:45] of course it probably is. [00:46] daftykins: Ok. It says I am using a prop driver "Broadcom 802.11 Linux STA wireless driver source from bmcwl-kernel-source (proprietary). the other option is do not use this device, but then it has now wireless option. [00:46] xpistos: and what model of broadcom is it? [00:47] daftykins: have to check it. One second. It is in a lenovo twist s230u [00:47] check with lspci [00:48] daftykins: Broadcom Corporation BCM43228 802.11a/b/g/n [00:49] !broadcom | xpistos ok go nuts... [00:49] xpistos ok go nuts...: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [00:49] daftykins: LOL. Thanks! [00:49] but bear in mind it sounds like you didn't even try changing channel [00:49] try 1, 6 or 11. [00:49] I did [00:49] no luck there [00:49] I usually use 11 but tried 1, 6 and 9 [00:50] ok. [00:51] daftykins: now I need to find it for a 14.04 system [00:51] xpistos: ok you can stop keeping me updated now [00:51] I am trying to play with xinput, but I have trouble sorting out which device is my laptop keyboard... Can anyone help me read this : http://pastebin.com/t3awbaUN ? Thanks ! [00:52] avilba: try xinput --disable "Virtual core keyboard" [00:53] Oh ok this one then. Thanks. I'll try to figure out a way to put it back on before trying to disable it ! [00:53] or xinput --disable "Virtual core XTEST keyboard" [00:56] avilba: make a .desktop file and +x it [00:56] with Exec=xinput --enable "Virtual core XTEST keyboard" [00:56] so you can double click it to execute it [00:57] Ok cool thank you for that. [00:57] use /usr/share/applications to get a template [00:58] np [01:06] EriC^^ : when I try to disable the KB, xinput tells me "X Error of failed request: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)". I guess that means I should use sudo, but what about my .desktop file to turn it on ? Is it gonna ask for my password as well ? [01:08] avilba: that's odd [01:09] EriC^^, I tried 'xinput --disable "Virtual core XTEST keyboard"' [01:09] it doesn't work here either, i guess you have to go about it differently, i've only used it with the touchpad [01:10] avilba: try xinput --disable "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" [01:10] jemand aus deutschland da [01:11] EriC^^, Perfect ! You got it. Thanks a lot. [01:13] what up [01:16] avilba: great, no problem! [01:17] Hello [01:22] hello [01:22] Hey [01:22] oh hey [01:22] don't mind me, just figuring out which font to use [01:22] any suggestions? [01:23] Arial [01:24] no Arial in xchat [01:24] I'm gonna settle with Droid Sans 11 for now [01:24] halnex: There is a channel for that purpose ' /join #test ' . [01:25] byobu === sins-_o is now known as sins- [01:34] I can't boot with Live USB anymore. Before, I was able to test drive distros, and managed to settle with Xubuntu Trusty. After some time, when I decided to test Kubuntu Vivid out, it just goes to a black screen / the monitor is off. I've tried other distros (Kubuntu Trusty, Manjaro), same result. I tried the original ISO I used to install Xubuntu Trusty before, but unfortunately, same thing happens. Why can I no longer use LiveUSBs? [01:35] you're either making them up wrong, or you need to boot with nomodeset [01:35] !nomodeset [01:35] A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [01:35] hi [01:36] hi vis [01:37] I tried nomodeset, acpi=off, basically those boot options. It goes to a terminal asking for login, but when I try to "startx", it can't connect to X Server. Tried Ctrl+Alt+F7, it shows up a blank. [01:37] ronnel: yeah you're definitely making up the drive wrong, or it's damaged. [01:37] or your downloads are corrupt [01:38] OR your systems RAM is a little funky :) [01:40] The weird thing is why can't I live boot with the original ISO I used to install Xubuntu in my netbook. Yes, my netbook's slow (HP Mini 1000) and Win7 sucks so I switched to Linux. I tried VirtualBox, it boots though, it goes to the Try/Install option. (But wasn't able to get past that since VirtualBox is killing my resources). [01:40] virtualbox is nowhere near the same as booting natively [01:41] it may be the same ISO, but it's not the same exact state of flash drive since you say you keep distro hopping [01:41] so maybe zero the drive and try again, dd'ing the ISO on [01:41] beyond that, try the things i've suggested [01:41] you're not going to make any progress just blindly asking why. [01:43] hi bro [01:43] How to copy from clipboard and paste into Nano editor? /// I tried, (shift+insert )but its not working [01:43] Oh, I've tried different LiveUSB Creators, like, Startup Disk Creator, Universal USB Installer, Rufus, UNetBootin, mkusb, even Super Grub Disk 2. [01:44] ronnel: and what about 'dd' like i said? :) [01:44] I may have to try it on other computers, haven't done this yet. [01:44] yes that would be good [01:45] How to copy from clipboard and paste into Nano editor? /// I tried, (shift+insert )but its not working [01:45] !repeat | aruns [01:45] aruns: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you.

[01:46] aruns, ctrl-G for all the options [01:47] ctrl +u on most nano systems [01:48] I did ctrl-g and tried ctrl-u, I am exhausted with options given there, i dont know why its not working [01:49] @Arun, try Shift+Ctrl+V [01:49] Hello [01:50] ronnel: Yes this worked ! Thanks [01:50] Sometime small things become so hard even after knowing all basics. [01:50] aruns: was this inside gnome-terminal? [01:51] daftykins :terminator [01:51] so looking at the shortcuts on the edit menu would've worked perhaps [01:52] daftykins: I tried almost everything known to me, basic commands, forums and google ; Asking here after doing homework [01:53] if you say so [01:53] BotchlaB YOU PIECE OF SHIT [01:53] YOU COCKSUCKER [01:53] wth [01:53] I AM GOING TO MAKE U FUCKING KILL URSELF [01:53] sometime things are strange, Don't have reasons to explain it [01:53] I WILL HAVE UR LIFE [01:53] DO U FUCKING UNDERSTAND ME [01:57] BotchlaB THIS IS A MESSAGE FROM HONEY DO NOT DARE IGNORE HER DO NOT DARE DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS.

[02:11] ok then; My server is setup with an rsync command that is used to copy data from my server to a local NAS drive and i need to use ssh rsa keys to run the command without using a password for the remote side. I can make the keys fine but i need help with what to do with the id_rsa.pub key after cause i try following guides online but they wont work right so i know im doing it wrong. Thanks [02:11] and i used to have this setup working right in the past but my domains got changed [02:13] EriC^^:xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12045252/ [02:14] Also i use this scp command to copy my id_rsa.pub to my server and it works but ... it appears the keys are not working.

I'll try again [02:22] be back later :P [02:23] daftykins, its not mounted and nautilus killed [02:24] but something from ubuntu seems to have claimed it since its not available in vbox [02:25] run "mount" on its' own and check [02:25] no idea how such functions in vbox work [02:25] syntroPi, You have it added in vbox prefrences [02:25] its not listed in "mount" [02:25] cant add it in vbox since its not avail [02:25] ? [02:26] syntroPi, YOu add when mounted, and when you start vbox it grabs it. [02:26] delta_: yes? do you have a support question? [02:26] yes i know how its done in vbox but how can I add it when it wont appear in the usb filter? its claimed by ubuntu system instead somehow [02:26] EriC^^:There is a problem, can you guess about this : xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12045252/ [02:26] Just a test.

[02:27] wileee, its not seen by vbox since its claimed by ubuntu already [02:27] not sure which component does that [02:27] using ctrl+alt+f1 then ctrl+alt+f7 didn't work. didn't see any pseudo terminals or any video at all.

[02:37] i mean ubuntu 15.04 image [02:37] yes with hdparm [02:38] you're better off looking if the manufacturer offers some tools, however [02:39] i always do this before i reinstall ubuntu to reset the firmware, used parted magic in the past though [02:39] that's overkill :) [02:40] you think the firmware will notice the new fs? [02:40] no it won't have a clue, but i'm saying it's a waste of time to secure erase like that [02:41] i thought its recommended to have max perf and for "discard" option to work properly (i.e. firmware and fs in "sync") [02:42] nope, someone's been telling you rubbish [02:42] so you just would reinstall it over the old system without any special commands to the ssd? [02:43] correct [02:43] kk [02:43] i might dd 50-100MB of zeroes to the start so it has no idea of what was once on there [02:43] but no real gains to be had [02:43] I agree with daftykins [02:43] I never rewrite 1/0 over the entire disk [02:43] yeah thats how i always did it when trashing windows installations with viruses :p [02:44] *malware [02:44] viruses are so 90s. [02:44] yeah [02:45] I would think that if you are going from windows to ubuntu, even if the format/install didn't get everything (malware, virus), it would be able to target Ubuntu anyways [02:45] yeah i meant when i cleaned windows i wrote zeroes in the first houndred mb or so then reinstalled from clean dvd [02:46] anyhow on my own box there is no M$ [02:46] yay my usb stick is ready to rock, cu guys l8tr [02:47] every OS has its' problems, it just depends which you prefer cleaning up after.

[02:53] sorry but your english is impossible to make sense of [02:54] sorry, I mean: Do you trust PPA, daftykins ? [02:54] hello [02:54] that depends on the PPA :P [02:54] Hello? [02:54] hi [02:54] Could someone help me with my ubuntu server? [02:54] not until you ask a question [02:55] and why is it a bad idea --> find a deb, daftykins ? [02:55] ok im ready to work on my tablet some more [02:55] ??? [02:55] I have no expierence with the server, littleb00tz [02:55] zippo^: because it won't get updated ever again. [02:55] ah i see okee [02:56] how did people make a package of the update (Bluefish) in PPA, daftykins ? [02:56] OerHeks, EriC^^ :There is a problem, can you guess about this : xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12045252/ [02:57] zippo^: compiled it from source, probably. and no - i can't help you do that :) [02:57] my graphics tablet huion 580 works but not right. it needs to be mapped to a specific screen and i need to be able to change what the buttons do. which i cant. and im not even sure that the driver is installed. i am running kubuntu 14.04 lts. I am running kernal 3.19. i found wizardpen drivers but the instructions seam dated they are talking about ubuntu 10.10 there. was wandering if anyone has time to help me work on this a bit? [02:59] On my server, I install ubuntu server 14.04 (LTS) so it installs fine, then the networking just does not work... I do ifconfig and it only show the loopback, i do ifconfig -a and i see eth0 and eth2 , and try to enable them, and i get a error, i cat the /etc/network/interfaces file then i see the interface that is hardwired to my network ( eth1 ) a [02:59] nd the loopback, any suggestions? [03:00] OerHeks, EriC^^ :There is a problem, can you guess about this : xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12045252/ , Further I have explained on this thread : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2289974 [03:01] kteckca: show a pastebin of "ifconfig -a" [03:04] kteckca: if there are two devices eth0 and eth2 but your configuration only tries to use the non-existing eth1, that should explain some things I guess... [03:05] i guess not :( [03:06] surgy: maybe post to the ask ubuntu site and/or forums since you come on at bad times for help on IRC. [03:06] daftykins, i will get a pastebin, but i cant use any networking ( such as SSH ) so i will have to go back and for between the room the two computers are in [03:07] kteckca: k, take a picture if it's easier. [03:07] daftykins, i suppose.... or maybe im not asking the question right...... is there an xinput configuration file that might have some settings i can change for the tablet? [03:08] No package 'gtk+-3.0' found [03:08] No package 'gdk-3.0' found [03:08] No package 'glib-2.0' found [03:08] No package 'gmodule-2.0' found [03:08] No package 'gobject-2.0' found [03:08] No package 'pango' found [03:08] !paste | zippo^ Don't to that again :) [03:08] zippo^ Don't to that again :): 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. [03:08] surgy: i can't help you. [03:09] surgy: maybe (maybe!) somebody in #ubuntu-studio or such can help [03:10] as artists are more likely to have a graphics tablet :) [03:22] ok, daftykins here is the pastebin of ifconfig -a http://pastebin.com/usSCymys [03:22] anyone have any ideas how to get 1366 vga resolution on my monitor [03:23] Settings / Display ? [03:23] kteckca: so you get nothing useful from "sudo ifconfig eth0 up" ? or the same for eth2? [03:23] all the xrandr addmode stuff results in INVALID FORMAT blank monitor [03:23] stubblefield: get a new cable :) [03:23] settings / display just displays UNKNOWN MONITOR [03:23] a nice digital one as mentioned earlier [03:23] daftykins, one sec let me double check [03:24] well i think this computer only has vga out [03:24] stubblefield: the X.org log disagreed [03:24] oh really [03:25] ar eyou just saying that [03:25] no i read it in the log =| what motivation would i have for lying? [03:25] just for the heck of it [03:25] anyway it should be pretty obvious if you trace the VGA cable in and look if you have the white DVI socket nearby [03:25] http://nvidia.custhelp.com/rnt/rnw/img/enduser/kb221_2.jpg [03:26] well my cat is sitting here, i would have to get up [03:26] you should see like that [03:26] daftykins , eth0 and eth1 exist on the machine, (eth2 does not) the eth0 jack is broken and has always never worked... [03:26] i don't get what nvidia is [03:26] that's a link i'm sharing of a picture [03:26] nvidia doesn't bear any relevance to anything right now [03:27] most of the google results about this talk about nvidia but when i run nvidia-detector it says none [03:27] kteckca: ah, did you typo your pastebin then? as it reads eth2 [03:27] no [03:27] that is what comes out, no joke [03:27] kteckca: so did you trying bringing eth2 up? does it have a cable in right now? [03:28] eth2 (should) not exist and if it is (what should be) eth1, yes [03:28] kteckca: rather than thinking about what it should or shouldn't be - just accept what ifconfig -a reports [03:28] ok... anyway [03:28] so try bringing up the interface, then try getting a DHCP address over it from your router perhaps [03:29] with "sudo dhclient eth2" [03:29] ok brb [03:30] stubblefield: yeah or you would just run "lspci" and read the model of graphics from there, likei had you do, which showed intel i965. [03:30] Can't load firmware file "(Some file...)" (next line) Can't allocate memory [03:30] i appreciate that you memorized my Xorg.log [03:32] nah that part was from the 'lspci' [03:32] i never ran that though [03:32] u ssh in here ? [03:32] i'm about to label you an idiot and ignore you [03:32] kteckca: how odd. maybe it's worth memtesting that system, doesn't sound quite happy [03:33] anyway i don't have any jack like that [03:33] i have another machine with that kind of connector [03:33] i have a thing that converts that to vga [03:33] but it flickers and sucks [03:33] i guess it should go to a usb connector into the monitor or osmething [03:34] whats the command to open xinput.xorg in a text editor? [03:34] not USB, no. [03:35] otherwise all the monitor has is hdmi or spdif or what looks like coax [03:35] hmm, I have 8 Gigs in that system, before i had webmin, ssh, dhcp, dns... running and it NEVER got above 10% (maybe 5%) now, with no services runnning, I dont think it is the ram though [03:35] daftykins [03:35] !webmin [03:35] webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. [03:35] ;) [03:35] It is not running on my system currently [03:35] Hi everyone [03:35] Hi [03:35] surgy, gedit ... [03:36] kteckca: well something isn't right, maybe google the model of NIC you have in there. === cbarreda is now known as _cb [03:36] it is a motherboard NIC [03:36] so idk [03:36] is it possible the monitor is dying ? [03:36] kteckca: yeah so run "lspci" and identify it. [03:37] stubblefield: doubt it. [03:37] then WTF [03:37] Ispci? [03:37] it's been working for a long time [03:37] ( sorry I'm relatively new to linux) [03:37] for the love of Tux stubblefield - i've told you options, deal with it. [03:38] kteckca: lowercase L, like list PCI [03:38] i need software options [03:38] stubblefield, to solve a failing hardware issue? LOL [03:38] stubblefield: you're out of them. [03:38] it don't work like tht [03:38] ok... [03:38] i don't know if the hardware is failing [03:39] stubblefield: go back to 12.04 then [03:39] well it worked up to like 3 days ago [03:39] that's long past 12.04 [03:39] and i tried booting various old kernels in grub but no dice [03:39] no it's still supported. [03:39] !12.04 [03:39] Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is a currently-supported !LTS release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1204 [03:40] yes old kernels != 12.04 [03:40] yeah i'm just saying it's been working through 2 other major ubuntu releases till now [03:40] obviously you're looking for someone to throw the magic switch for you [03:40] i'm done. [03:41] i've spend numerous hours on this i'm just kind of shooting in the dark now because nothing has worked [03:41] ridiculous [03:44] ok daftykins, downloading drivers, now I have never install linux drivers...so can you help me... [03:44] you don't really download drivers in Linux land [03:44] and nah, i'm off to bed shortly [03:45] well.. [03:45] but, it is ... [03:45] that's nice dear [03:45] gah, well i am going to leave to my own devices [03:45] nn === kernel is now known as Guest39629 [03:55] hey guys, my audio isn't working. What do I do? [03:55] It's just killed over. restarting does not resolve the issue [03:56] Finetunrda_: bit odd you keep getting one issue after another, time to check the health of your hard disk and run a memtest i think. [03:56] * Finetunrda_ sighs [03:57] daftykins: can you walk me through the hdd check? [03:57] sudo apt-get install pastebinit smartmontools [03:57] sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit [03:59] hey how do i install ubuntu on my nexus 7 [03:59] !touch [03:59] Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch . Support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [03:59] HowardTheDuck: see above [04:00] daftykins: while this thing installs, can you tell me how to at least restart the audio function? [04:00] nope no idea. [04:00] * Finetunrda_ sighs [04:00] you must've done something this time :) [04:01] daftykins: actually, I don't even know if the audio was working earlier. I just needed to be able to use wifi at that point [04:03] daftykins: I'm being notified that a restart is needed, should I go ahead or do you want me to run the secon command? [04:03] *second [04:04] i can't think what the restart is in aid of, sure wasn't any of my instructions [04:04] just run them now yeah, i haven't got time for the reboot. [04:04] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12045684/ [04:06] ok looks fine, maybe it's just recent kernel upgrades. you could go back like you did to check the wireless and just see if audio comes back with older kernels too. [04:06] wouldn't hurt to memtest just as a precaution [04:06] i gotta sleep now, nn [04:07] daftykins: I too must sleep. Thanks for the help. I'll do the memtest tomorrow [04:07] np :) [04:11] guess i cant use linux [04:11] sucks [04:13] why not surgy [04:15] anyone happen to know where the ubiquity install gets the name string for the ubuntu version, i.e lsb_release etc [04:15] Johnny_Linux, my kernal (3.19) supports the graphics tablet i have and there is a driver for it. and it works. but i cant seam to configure it at all..... there are things that have to be configured or it wont work right. ive been at it for a week and every trail i follow runs cold. and ive asked all the guys at the places that support y distro (kubuntu 14.04) and no one can help me they just redirect me here or there. and ive googled everythi [04:15] ng i know to google. the best luck ive had is the developers of the driver at digiment.gethub.io. its a huion 580 graphics tablet btw. [04:17] huh, sorry, just have patients and do some more research, sorry i couldnt help, youll get it ooner or ltr [04:17] i need k/b lessons too [04:17] ill try a few more days.... it sucks too because i love kubuntu sooo much.......... but i do digital art and i hate dual booting... [04:18] which tablet [04:18] huion 580 [04:18] is that a knock off ? [04:18] no [04:18] ok, lemme look see [04:18] its a cheaper chinese brand thats gaining huge support for being less feature rich but well made and less expensive [04:19] it is officially supported with a driver in kernal 3.19 === Blaster is now known as Guest69716 [04:20] theres 1000 hits [04:20] whew [04:20] https://www.google.com/search?q=huion+580+configure+ubuntu+graphics&client=ubuntu&hs=twL&channel=fs&gbv=1&sei=OCbIVZ_CCorNeoT7i7gI [04:22] yeah ive probably clicked all of those [04:23] D`oh! [04:23] maybe change kernels [04:23] will that give me a configuration tool? [04:23] like i said i have the driver [04:23] not sure [04:23] I can't go into 1080p mode without missing the top of the screen and the left of the screen [04:24] um, i got my resolution back [04:25] how? [04:25] oh crap it still flickers [04:25] my monitor and gpu both did 1080p perfect in windows why is ubuntu and debian both giving me grief? [04:26] and it says 1280x768 [04:26] at least this is a start i guess [04:26] i dunno what 1080 mode is [04:26] but i am using xrandr commands [04:26] 1920x1080 [04:27] I've got it in that resolution but the top and the left of my screen is missing [04:27] i mean sure my mouse can go there but its off screen [04:27] i tried messing about in xrandr [04:27] i got the ati catalyst drivers properly installed now [04:27] it was doing this before in debian [04:27] but it worked fine in windows [04:27] why? [04:27] its outputting on the hdmi [04:28] you prolly need to go with ubuntu drivers, ati outside of those really dont work well [04:28] the outputs interestingly are labelled different in ubuntu from debian, debian calls it --output HDMI-0 but ubuntu calls is output DFP9 [04:28] Johnny_Linux, it couldn't hack the res BEFORE I installed the ati drivers [04:28] ic [04:33] shall i take this up with kernel.org?

[05:09] errrrr gnome is not gedit [05:09] this is even older than debian jessie!!! [05:09] Hello everyone. I have this very simple script (http://pastebin.com/HQu5H3wM) which toggles on/off my laptop keyboard.

[05:22] syntroPi, you're more than welcome to use that PPA again. [05:22] and gedit is onlike 3.17 now or something. [05:22] julian-delphiki, yes i tried that but on 15.04 it freezes on gnome 3.16 so not useable [05:23] i just would like to have a consistent gnome desktop no matter what version [05:26] hello [05:26] Hi [05:29] tell me why the hell does the dang ubuntu live cd freeze up.. I happened at 1:04am i waited until 1:10am to turn the computer off and it did nothing [05:29] Is it my computer tell me!! [05:30] Its ur computer [05:30] it can be either a bad disk or need to clean the drive [05:31] mike1960 clean the drive? [05:31] yes a dvd cleaner disk [05:31] but how is it my computer gott3rfunk3n83 [05:31] Mike1960 I'm using sandisk usb [05:31] Problem with your drive [05:31] !md5sum | Michaelrockingth verify 1. your .iso and 2. the usb [05:31] Michaelrockingth verify 1. your .iso and 2. the usb: 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 [05:32] ok... contacts in your USB [05:32] Probably the way its partitioned wrong [05:32] Well i don't see how it is the contacts in the USB i just bought this one like 3 days ago. [05:33] ok then verify your iso [05:33] Michaelrockingth, mike. you don't mind if I call you Mike? Good. Ever heard GIGO? Garbage in, garbage out? VERIFY ^^^ [05:33] cfhowlett if the md5 is right what else could it be [05:34] Michaelrockingth, it COULD be : VERIFY. I don't do "what if". Get the facts first and we'll talk. [05:34] Michaelrockingth, on which step does it freeze? [05:35] all i had on the live disc installed was firefox, flash player and trying to download updates and thats when the whole system froze up. [05:35] I had similar prob. Fixed [05:35] I was on 2 flash based webistes as well. [05:36] Michaelrockingth, hmm maybe ram was full if you do that on livecd/usb? [05:36] Michaelrockingth, do you want to install it? [05:36] I checked it and it was only using 1.5GiB of 3.7GiB before it all happened. [05:36] should have installed to HDD and free up RAM [05:36] OerHeks, EriC^^ :There is a problem, can you guess about this : xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12045252/ , Further I have explained on this thread : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2289974 [05:37] Yes i want to install Ubuntu but not if its gonna do that. [05:37] Try install without going to advanced partitioning just straight install to drive choose the drive then click install [05:37] Michaelrockingth, do you also have windows? [05:37] Michaelrockingth, hmm well you would have to find out where the problem originates [05:37] I have windows 8.1 64-bit fully updated [05:38] Michaelrockingth, install virtualbox to windows. install lubuntu to vbox. [05:38] If i re do the flash drive and give it persitant cache this time would it leave info in syslog [05:39] Michaelrockingth, its sluggishly slow (at least last time i tried that) [05:39] Michaelrockingth, if you have an android you could try to ssh into the live session to look into the logs or dmesg [05:39] Did you burn the iso to cd? Or just on the usb. [05:39] What tool you used? [05:40] just usb and i used the tool mentioned here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows [05:40] Michaelrockingth, also afaik if you press F2 on bootup there was an option to verify the files on the usb drive [05:40] Michaelrockingth, i mean after you entered the boot menu of the ubuntu usb stick [05:41] not sure if its still there though [05:41] syntropi when i install to the hdd and say its does the same thing could y'all help even better after that [05:41] syntroPi, true but that doesn't hashcheck. that's why REPEATEDLY has been suggested md5sum. guess that's just too much trouble to do though [05:41] cause i mean right now it don't seem like much help right now [05:42] cfhowlett well dang I'm about to do it now.. [05:42] I had to redownload the iso becaue i removed it from my laptop after i burned it to the usb [05:42] anyone in here have a walkthru link for help installing nzbget on ubuntu? by chance [05:42] Hashcheck if your iso was completely downloaded [05:42] Then come back [05:42] ima newcomer to linux mostly tho [05:43] Well i'll brb [05:43] cfhowlett, i thought that option in the boot menu would read file hashes from checksums.md5 and verify the livecd files hashes === regedit_ is now known as regedit [05:44] abb0: http://www.htpcguides.com/install-nzbget-stable-ubuntu-ppa/ [05:44] syntroPi, it doesn't. [05:44] hmm [05:45] syntroPi, I thought the same for years as well but confirmed that it's not the case. [05:45] hi, i just installed ubuntu 15.04 along side windows 10 on an msi ge60 2qd apache , my problem is i am not getting a choice of what o/s to choose from and its going straight to windows 10, how can i fix this please ? [05:45] cfhowlett, what does this option do then instead? im always curious to learn new... [05:46] Grub === Yukkii is now known as Kaneki [05:47] i was just thinking the same thing Gott [05:47] On the installer there should be an option to install alongside windows [05:48] im on the latest grub.. and yes the option exists [05:48] On the installer there is an option to install alongside windows. Be sure its ticked [05:49] gott3rfunk3n83 , I installed Ubuntu 15.04 along side windows 10 but its going straight into windows 10 and not letting me choose between ubuntu 15.04 and windows 10. [05:50] is there any known solution to get a full gnome 3.14 for ubuntu 15.04? [05:50] syntroPi, install ubuntu-gnome ?? [05:51] rainbowwarrior: Did you install both systems on the same harddrive, or seperate harddrives? Because during installation, Ubuntu should replace the boot sector and give you the choice to select the os. Now if you use two harddrives, it might be that you are simply booting the 'wrong' drive first. So change the boot order. [05:51] hmm gnome desktop through synaptic file manager [05:51] cfhowlett, thats what i meant [05:51] im sure my bios does not need to be in legacy to run ubuntu 15.04 as im sure if i remember right ubuntu supports ueifi now [05:51] minimec its on same hard drive [05:51] so correction: is there any known solution to get a full gnome 3.14 desktop (with all apps) for ubuntu-gnome 15.04 x64? [05:52] rainbowwarrior: So I wonder that the boot sector was not replaced during install... [05:52] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub [05:52] Bios settings and check boot order [05:53] through synaptic file manager.. [05:53] squinty thank you [05:53] yw [05:54] brb lets hope it fixes it :) === zorbs is now known as zorbsOne [05:54] syntroPi, got it I think. md5sum verifies the .iso downloaded matches the .iso build. in other words checks against the main source. verify cd integrity ONLY checks against the downloaded .iso. if that .iso is funky ... [05:57] cfhowlett ok I have it open in the md5 checker what do i click now the calculate or compare? [05:58] The iso i just downloaded i get the error they are different.. [05:58] hello [05:58] Michaelrockingth, you should check against the published md5sums on http://releases.ubuntu.com/ [05:58] ok [05:58] i installed mariadb-server but i can't get it to start. i can't see any error messages. any ideas ? [05:59] It says they are the same [06:01] redoing the usb now syntroPi [06:01] cfhowlett, im struggling to understand what you meant with your explanation on the verify option: i understand it depends on a non-corrupt checksums.md5 file inside the iso [06:01] should i just boot into it and now install or play around in it and see if it freezes up [06:01] Michaelrockingth, what graphics card do you have? [06:02] syntroPi let me generate a system report with speccy it only take a second :) [06:02] syntroPi http://speccy.piriform.com/results/NHO4cbdwoOt3WF2uLf1pGMY [06:03] I have laptop where I installed windows and Ubuntu but only windows is getting booted I could go to ubuntu only when I press F9 and then select in grub also grub has windows but there is something wrong unable to see grub directly.. [06:04] Michaelrockingth, well it seems to be some sort of intel graphics (which is good since it probably can use some open source drivers) [06:04] syntroPi the intel website says my graphics card isn't supporting linux and on the live preview of ubuntu it said i had sandy bridge graphics [06:04] syntroPi: there's a checksums.md5 file inside the iso? [06:05] syntroPi should i just install to HDD and then see what happens or wait and play around on the fresh copy of usb? [06:05] syntroPi: i usually compare the md5/sha256 checksum to the published checksums found on ubuntu website [06:06] what would you recommend :) [06:06] akik, yes /md5sum.txt with some content like http://pastie.org/10340945 [06:06] syntroPi: ok that file doesn't include the checksum for the whole iso [06:07] * Michaelrockingth pokes syntroPi [06:07] Michaelrockingth, hmm thats your decision, I would always prefer some linux over any windows but thats my opinion. if you want to find out more about your problem you could try on live without doing any harm [06:08] Michaelrockingth, do you have another pc avail in your network? [06:08] syntroPi how would i find the issue cause though would it be logged this time around since i gave the usb 4GB of presistent cache [06:08] no [06:08] or tablet or phone? [06:08] (android) [06:08] I have an Android asus MeMO pad 7 (ME176cx) [06:09] why? [06:09] Michaelrockingth, you can try to enable ssh server on the live cd and then use ConnectBot to ssh into the live session [06:10] ok [06:10] if its not frozen really nasty you still should be able to read the logs, restart services (eg. lightdm) and such [06:10] syntropi would it save info to syslog this time around? [06:10] Michaelrockingth, i dont know how that persistent storage on liveusb works i never really used that [06:11] i guess its worth a see :P [06:12] hi still no luck and even holding left shit down does not work :( [06:12] shift* [06:13] I'm coming back tomorrow afternoon/night I'll give y'all the results syntroPi and bfhowlett :) [06:13] * Cfhowlett [06:13] anyways good night talk to you guys tomorrow thanks for helping :3 [06:15] hi [06:15] squinty , there is no boot repair and also holding left shift down while booting does nothing, i did notice in my bios i have euifi , eufie and csm and legacy , but im sure it should not matter what one of those i choose ? [06:15] sorry about typos [06:18] akik, ofc it wont verify itself or the whole iso but the files contents [06:18] I typed this: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:videolan/stable-daily and after update, I got: E: Type 'ain' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/videolan-stable-daily-precise.list [06:18] E: The list of sources could not be read. [06:18] Go to the repository dialog to correct the problem. [06:18] E: _cache->open() failed, please report. [06:19] now synaptic won't work. From terminal, how can I undo this please? [06:19] forget vlc, I just wanna un-do it. [06:22] eipi-1_: ain would seem to be missing a "m" main is one of the repo's catagories [06:22] ah.. [06:22] squinty , there is no boot repair and also holding left shift down while booting does nothing, i did notice in my bios i have euifi , eufie and csm and legacy , but im sure it should not matter what one of those i choose ? [06:23] sorry seems my internet is wobbly this morning [06:23] well, I'm a total noob. How can I edit this? === Christer_ is now known as Christer [06:26] etc /apt /sources.list ? [06:27] eipi-1_: gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/videolan-stable-daily-precise.list would be one way. if you have another text editor which you like to use, then substitue it's name for "gedit" [06:27] rainbowwarrior: iirc, you have to install boot repair [06:29] rainbowwarrior: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair [06:29] squinty, ahh i see what i have to do now thank you , will try again :) === Xe is now known as uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu === uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu is now known as Xena === Xena is now known as Xe [06:33] thanks!

Are the old ones safe to remove? [06:54] tuhl__, Those are replaced with what is needed as part of the stack, I would not touch it myself. [06:56] tuhl__: yes, you can remove the old enablement stack [06:59] wileee, k1l: thanks... Ill do backup and try then :D [07:00] tuhl__ Good idea, good luck. === gerald is now known as Guest13395 [07:06] how can i edit the favorites shortcuts in gnome3? === leo__ is now known as leoliu [07:09] syntroPi, In what way, you can add and remove apps?

Koti Koti Pranam [07:10] adios [07:12] wileee, i want to edit existing app launchers in the favorites panel [07:13] Woo Hoo I am now dual booting windows 10 and Ubuntu 15.04 , thank you , i forgot to disable secure boot and found some other settings in my bios i needed to change and now all works fine :) [07:13] good deal [07:13] syntroPi, Can you be more exact? [07:14] good deal rainbowwarrior [07:14] There is a problem implementing installation , can you guess about this : xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12045252/ , Further I have explained on this thread : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2289974 [07:14] secure boot [07:15] mike_1960 yep [07:16] anything good has to take some work [07:20] wileee, i just got an answer in #gnome: the favorites panel references .desktop files from ~/.local/share/applications and if not from there then from /usr/share/applications: it seems they have to be modified manually to edit the Exec=... command which launches the app [07:20] cool, carry on [07:21] Wilee, daftykins : There is a problem implementing installation , can you guess about this : xargs -a ~/packages sudo apt-get install --reinstall > http://paste.ubuntu.com/12045252/ , Further I have explained on this thread : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2289974 === erwin_ is now known as easyOnMe [07:22] if I knew I would have answered you [07:22] Ok fine [07:25] aruns: obviously ~/packages isn't right [07:25] wileee, thanks maybe my question was not formed clearly enough, im in need for some coffee :) the gui way seems to be alacarte btw (though im fine with editing files manually myself). [07:26] syntroPi, Not a problem, you got the help, it's all good. ;) [07:27] hello everyone is there a way I can move the pop up menu bar on the left of ubuntu to be placed down at the bottom [07:28] Ben64 : How were you able to reach on conclusion that packages are not right? [07:28] aruns: by reading your pastebin [07:29] Ben64 : that i know, but you may have read some statements through which you have reached that conclusion, Any pointers? [07:29] who ever it was i spoke to about hp 4507 and Ubuntu 15.04 , i can confirm that the printer works fine in ubuntu 15.04 using hplip-3.15.7 [07:30] aruns: i mean, did you even look at what you pastebinned? look at lines 6-15 [07:30] Unable to locate package src=http://182.79.218.37 [07:30] E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'src=http://182.79.218.37:8080/webadmin/de [07:30] Ben64 : to me problems seems here [07:31] !webadmin | aruns, and it references webadmin? [07:32] cfhowlett : I have no clue on this, can you help me with pointers how to fix that [07:32] !msi keyboard light controller [07:32] rainbowwarrior: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [07:33] aruns: are you serious? let me ask you a question. why are you trying to install a package named "frameborder=0><" [07:34] hello everyone is there a way I can move the pop up menu bar on the left of ubuntu to be placed down at the bottom [07:34] cfhowlett, Ben64 : i tried pinging 182.79.218.37 manually and it requires permission. I think i am going nut, I dont noticed it due to fatigue to deal with this problem for very long time [07:35] aruns: how is installing packages related to pinging an ip [07:35] easyOnMe, Only if you roll the to the left one turn [07:35] monitor* [07:36] wileee: wow that was funny man [07:36] but seriously is there a way to do what I wish [07:36] used to be a hack, nothing out there [07:37] was not a joke, but the reality of the desktop ;) [07:39] aruns, I've read all your pastes. this http://paste.ubuntu.com/12045252/ lines 6 - 15 are clearly in error. I'd suggest you stop and take a nap. then reinstall a clean ubuntu. something is clearly very well scrambled which renders your system untrustworthy. IMHO. [07:39] easyOnMe, Probably would be popular if there was a easy way, I suspect. [07:40] cfhowlett: Can i fix this system, Is it beyond repair? [07:41] aruns, fix = reinstall from a clean, verified .iso [07:42] cfhowlett : I know thats the last option, what I am trying is to learn how to fix this system, Is it impossible? or information in our hand is not sufficient to address this problem. [07:43] cfhowlett : Fresh install is the quick way to get out of problem but what remains buried is unsolved problem. [07:43] cfhowlett: I appreciate leads provided by you. [07:44] cfhowlett: hello [07:44] cfhowlett: is there a way I can move the pop up menu bar on the left of ubuntu to be placed down at the bottom [07:45] Both of you easyOnMe and aruns have both just random;y addresses help, do not do that [07:45] this is free volunteer help, we are not obligated to help [07:46] aruns as I understand it, you deleted several pieces of ubuntu-core while chasing the shiny python version. that alone is enough to destabilize your system. then the reinstall of ubunut-desktop failed with some very questionable errors pointing towards ? sources? install script? Short answer: Ive NO idea what your system is doing, haven't seen this particular mix of fail before, thus my (sanity saving) suggestion to clean reinstall. B [07:46] UT ... YMMV [07:46] wileee : what yo intend to say from that statement? Any offence done by me [07:46] easyOnMe, no idea. sorry. UbuntuStudio here so I've literally never used unity. [07:47] cfhowlett: thanks [07:47] you are cool man [07:47] easyOnMe, too cool for school :) [07:47] cfhowlett : Thanks for peeking into the problem, Would do that as last resort [07:47] wileee: and for your info please do not sound like a grumpy old man [07:47] aruns, happy2help! [07:48] relax the people I asked for help are the people I know about [07:48] cfhowlett : Thanks buddy === stefa664 is now known as trias [07:48] cfhowlett: hahaha [07:48] * cfhowlett is himself a grumpy old man and proud of it. [07:48] yeah [07:48] how are you doing man [07:50] I'm not happy unless I'm not chasing those kids off my lawn [07:50] * cfhowlett passes a chilled PBR to wilee [07:50] heh [07:51] cfhowlett: what is ubuntu studio is it also another brand of ubuntu os === trias is now known as Trias [07:51] !studio | easyOnMe [07:51] easyOnMe: UbuntuStudio is a collection of packages for the artist who wishes to use Ubuntu as their Digital Audio Workstation. It contains all the best Audio/Visual components from the Ubuntu repositories. For more info and install instructions, join #ubuntustudio or see http://ubuntustudio.org [07:51] cfhowlett: thanks [07:51] easyOnMe, it is an official ubuntu flavor for multimedia production. Much fun! [07:52] cfhowlett: does it it have any of those animation software similar to flash and flash actionscript [07:52] of adobe [07:52] Hi wireless worked when enableing the proprietary Broadcom drivers in additional drivers on a 15.04 Live USB, but in my install it's not working and I can't just enable it either. So what to do? Maybe I can Ethernet it and try and download from repos myself or something, [07:53] easyOnMe, plenty. blender, inkscape for starters. you can add those to your plain vanilla ubuntu or go to UStudio [07:53] !broadcom | Sebsebsebb The wiki has an offline [07:53] Sebsebsebb The wiki has an offline: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx === Blaster is now known as Guest5957 [07:54] cfhowlett: UStudio what does it have... I only want to do simple animation stuff just like what I did in flash of adobe what is its counterpart in USTudio [07:55] cfhowlett: blender is just way to high up there because it is already using 3D images and I have no exposure to that I only want to do 2D animation [07:56] easyOnMe, krita, gimp, pencil, mypaint, >>> synfig studio <<< [07:56] synfig specifically for 2d anim [07:58] Saying that there's another driver as well that it says isn't working and can't just enable [07:58] cfhowlett: ok I heard of those and I am currently using them except for krita, is it also free just like synfig studio [07:58] all free! [07:59] !krita [07:59] easyOnMe, krita can be used for animation but is primarily for digital painting. [07:59] cfhowlett: but synfig studio is not regularly being updated right [08:00] easyOnMe, check it: http://www.osalt.com/ [08:00] hi [08:00] cfhowlett: oh ok have you used krita before what about inkscape have you used it too [08:00] how can i open gconf editor on ubuntu 15.04? [08:01] easyOnMe, tried krita, more familiar with gimp and actually developed a tiny bit of skill with inkscape. My snowman rocks! [08:01] cfhowlett: lol but is it also possible to animate thinks created in inkscape usng inkscape [08:02] I have used inkscape and gimp very often [08:02] for web design projects [08:02] as I am more into open source [08:02] I was just curious whether it is possible to create something like .gif file for those objects created in inkscape using inkscape [08:03] easyOnMe, continue discussion in #ubuntustudio more expert eyes [08:03] mka there is dconf-editor preinstalled (another conf system) but no gconf-editor, you would have to install that [08:03] cfhowlett: ok thanks no problme [08:03] hi [08:04] mka most of gnome3 apps use dconf though [08:04] gconf was gnome2 -ish [08:04] syntroPi: ah i thanks, im installing gconf-editor i will check dconf too if what i want to configure is not working with gconf thanks [08:08] Can someone suggest how to take back up of "nano ~/package" [08:08] I want to create another copy of same file [08:09] aruns: that file is no good [08:09] ok so end solution remains open, install afresh ! [08:10] yep, and next time be more careful with what you run [08:11] Ya mistakes are best teachers to make us learn, Will be cautious with system [08:12] it has devastated my system beyond repair, I have tried hard to learn and solve this problem but to no rescue I am failure by all means [08:13] Whata day! [08:15] aruns, for future reference: apt-get -s purge python returns http://paste.ubuntu.com/12046583/ the "-s" means sandbox means not running the command. seeing a list like this *should* cause one to think twice about whatever s/he is about to do.

[14:10] evidex: what do you mean? [14:11] One of my machines has Windows 8.1 Home edition which does not allow remote desktop. Is there an open source alternative that would allow me to remote desktop from ubuntu to my windows machine? [14:11] dtscode: Try SSHing into the server from a different machine [14:12] hello, how i can remove triggers for package? in my case initramfs-tools trigger tries to build initramfs image for kernel which is already deleted and always fails. [14:12] KotoRez: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers [14:12] evidex: ok [14:14] evidex: ok did that. so based on that I have come to the following conclusion. putty does something that ssh(1) doesn't that allows it to connect and load a shell, because connecting through ssh(1) just hangs [14:16] dtscode: Try ssh -t user@host bash --login -i [14:17] evidex: hangs again [14:20] dtscode: Strange :/ [14:20] I'll just bug digital ocean with it [14:20] thanks for the help anyways evidex :) [14:22] whats required to join the ubuntu dtscode contributing devs team [14:22] some history of contributions ? :) [14:23] from where update-initramfs pick information about installed kernels? i delete one kernel, and initramfs tries to build for it... but fails. [14:23] is it even possible to join with just some design skills [14:24] sddfdev: I'm sorry... what? [14:24] that was an accidental tab [14:24] ah [14:24] !contributing | sddfdev [14:24] help me please with my question, i really don't know how to solve my problem. [14:24] !contribute | sddfdev [14:24] sddfdev: To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://community.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu [14:25] dtscode: what do the logs on the server indicate when your login hangs? [14:25] mcphail: where would I see that? [14:25] dtscode: /var/log/auth.log would be the first place to look [14:26] ok thanks [14:31] I tried the newly made live usb of it with the iso i downloaded last night and noticed things seem more sluggish cfhowlett and others.. but thats normal for live usb isn't it? :) [14:32] I can't think of any reason why that would be [14:32] In fact, (and I'm no expert) I would imagine USB to be faster than live CD. If that's what you mean. [14:33] RileyTL i gave it a presitent cache of 4GB [14:33] last time i gave it no presitent cache it was fast :3 [14:34] Hm, I guess it's possible that the USB drive itself is older, slow to write? Not sure, I've not played with persistent caches. I just write to USB to install on the hard drive with [14:35] RileyTL its not a old flash drive i just got it the other day its a usb 2.0 PNY 16GB === virusuy is now known as nadie === nadie is now known as virusuy [14:36] /e pooky [14:37] !p [14:39] mcphail: is there any sensitive info in auth.log? [14:39] I'm not sure then helpmeubuntu, sorry [14:39] RileyTL I believe today is the day I install it to my PC :) [14:39] helpmeubuntu: persistence will be ruining your day. === eraggo_ is now known as eraggo [14:39] oh dear Tux help us all [14:39] er i mean great! [14:40] daftykins was that meant to be some kind of joke? :| and persistence is bad??? [14:40] it may slow down the experience yes. [14:40] dtscode: probably - I wouldn't paste it [14:40] ah you don't have your humour unit engaged today i see [14:41] You're speaking to a person that has used puppy linux, Xubuntu, and Ubuntu 10.10 [14:41] mcphail: hrmmm damn... this is nonsense to me. [14:41] hello [14:41] I love Linux.. Its so much better than windows.. If i had a laptop that came with Ubuntu by default i would love the hell out of it [14:41] dtscode: if sshd has blocked anything it should be fairly obvious. Any gibberish is likely irrelevant [14:42] helpmeubuntu: that's a silly claim, and OS a vs. b comments aren't welcome here [14:42] hello === erwin is now known as easyOnMe [14:43] dtscode: if you run "tail -f /var/log/auth.log" on the server and then try to access via putty and ssh, you should see any errors in real time [14:43] oh ok sweet [14:43] daftykins: do you know the command from the terminal on how to know whether a file is utf-8 encoded [14:43] daftykins sorry.... [14:44] dtscode: if that doesn't point in the right direction, I am probably out of ideas! [14:44] Hi, I know how to add programs to my Startup Applications, but is it possible to set a particular desktop configuration for where those programs' windows should go? I use multiple workstations, and I would like the same windows to open on the same workspaces each time I log in. [14:44] yeah if this doesn't work I'll be going to digital ocean [14:45] daftykins do you happen to know a brand i could buy that preinstalls linux? [14:45] helpmeubuntu, now you're just being lazy: dell, hp, system 76, zareason [14:45] helpmeubuntu: brand of what, flamingo? [14:45] dtscode: I suppose the other thing to check is that you don't have anything odd in your ssh_config file. I don't think putty uses that file so it may explain the differences [14:46] hi, can someone help me with making a uefi bootable install on a USB? did a few tests, but non will boot. [14:46] !uefi | omrikap [14:46] omrikap: 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 [14:46] omrikap: from what OS? just 'dd' the ISO on there. [14:46] cfhowlett i am not being lazy :/ I thought dell, hp never preinstalls linux.. I thought it was always windows by what i seen.. [14:47] mcphail: it appears to be trying to log into root and failing [14:47] helpmeubuntu, here's test: google ubuntu + oem + dell and enjoy the magic. [14:47] dtscode: you are using "ssh username@server.domain"? [14:47] mcphail: correct [14:47] helpanyway shopping is off topic here :) [14:47] oh, quit. [14:47] dtscode: and that user exists on the server? [14:48] daftykins: hi, when i make a live usb, it works, but then i cannot save changes [14:48] omrikap: that's what live sessions do. [14:48] mcphail: correct [14:48] dtscode: I don't know why it would try to log in as root, then. Can you ssh to any other machine? [14:49] daftykins: haha.. I know.. But I want a complete install so I could save changes and everything, but won't have to dual boot. [14:49] omrikap: i would not run from a flash drive. [14:49] mcphail: yep. I can ssh into my rpi which works as one would expect it to [14:49] daftykins: why? [14:49] omrikap, plan B: windows + virtualbox + ubuntu. no dual boot required [14:49] highly undesirable. [14:49] dtscode: are you using passwords or keys? [14:50] passwords [14:50] dtscode: and do you have any keys set up at all? [14:50] no not yet [14:50] cfhowlett: thanks, but it's too slow. [14:50] * mcphail is stumped [14:50] me too [14:50] omrikap, lubuntu then. [14:51] dtscode: can you log into the server from another machine using the same credentials? [14:51] mcphail: nope. tried it from my rpi and same hanging issue. I see this issue from every machine I try unless I use putty [14:53] cfhowlett: thing is, i have only 128 GB ssd. No room for a virtual drive, doual boot or anything on this drive [14:54] omrikap: damn - and where do you expect to store data? [14:54] dtscode: certainly makes it seem like something at the server end [14:54] omrikap, lubuntu + vbox = 8 gb max [14:54] mcphail: thats what I'm thinking, since its the same behavior on two different machiens [14:54] daftykins: haha i don't have that much data.. seriously, 32 GB on usb will be OK [14:54] dtscode: If you get an answer, can you ping me? I'm curious to learn [14:55] daftykins: it just won't boot.. can you help me with that? [14:55] mcphail: sure. I am currently contacting digitalocean, so hopefully they will be able to tell me [14:55] omrikap: no [14:55] dtscode: good luck [14:55] thanks [14:55] daftykins: thanks. good day :) [14:56] cfhowlett: i gave ubuntu a try, i will with lubuntu, but what against a usb install? [14:57] omrikap, installing to usb, by definition, will be slow and subpar performance. My $0.02 [14:58] omrikap: I've used USB installs before. They are slow, but usable. Haven't tried on a modern machine [14:59] mcphail: so the live works fine so far, it just won't save my changes. do you know how to make uefi usb bootable. i tried couple of things, but no luck === dearn_ is now known as dearn [15:00] omrikap: I haven't tried on a uefi machine. I last used this on old hardware [15:01] mcphail: how did you install? [15:01] what does -y at the end of a cmd mean [15:01] jus curious [15:01] omrikap: just used the installer (from CD in those days) and chose USB as my install drive [15:01] abb0, depends on the command [15:01] abb0: depends on the command, if it was apt-get that can mean 'yes' [15:02] o ok [15:02] it was an apt get [15:02] ty ;) [15:02] ive been learnin via youtube last week, only ask when im really unsure of what things mean. appreciate the answers tho guys ;) [15:02] omrikap: occasionally had to tweak the init process as the drive would take a bit of time to come up, but otherwise just functioned like a normal install [15:02] abb0: you can always try man, man apt-get, or often --help brings up help [15:03] abb0, suggestion: www.fullcirclemagazine.org/downloads dl/read #0, repeat #1 ... #2 ... [15:03] mcphail: thanks. i'll let you know later how it worked for me.

[16:24] cfhowlett, namely please [16:24] TJ-: ok, i will try that [16:24] linocisco, www.amazon.com search term ubuntu sort by date [16:25] Hounddog: Try to narrow down the source of the failure until you have firm evidence :) [16:25] cfhowlett, since ubuntu 8.04 , i think hardy , I was away from ubuntu and I dont have latest eboook [16:25] EriC^^, do you know if there is a wiki or something like that for gnome hidden insiders information? [16:25] anyone know why this would still download html files? wget -r -P . -np -A jpeg,jpg,bmp,gif,png "http://www.site.com/path1/" [16:25] TJ-: i am considering to just let it be and restart it every now and then.... [16:26] hi all, how can i find out who is in charge of maintaining the vagrant box for ubuntu in hashicorp atlas [16:26] am on holiday and boss called me in for this shit... i am not even a sysadmin [16:26] OerHeks: I found that thread by myself already and it doesn't mention how the problem has to be fixed or what's the real problem [16:26] Hounddog: Well, with evidence of why, you can punt the problem back :) Maybe someone changed something and didn't tell you [16:27] am just logging off now... no patience to search for this [16:27] TJ-: thx for the help though [16:29] hi all, i m using mobile broadband GSM internet via USB modem. I know USSD code to check current balance . I dont know how to type in CLI [16:29] syntroPi: i found this but.. well you'll see http://askubuntu.com/questions/325518/how-can-i-edit-nautilus-places-sidebar-and-unity-quicklist [16:30] it basically entails modifying the source code and then installing the package [16:30] TJ-: if you run bash script in debug mode with in crontab, script will output better than "echo 'start() called' >> /tmp/service.log "? [16:31] TJ-: is a curiosity only, :). [16:32] x4w3: possibly, but then you're changing the shell which might cause things to behave differently... I always prefer the least invasive change when tracking down subtle bugs. [16:32] wget -r -P . -np -A jpeg,jpg,bmp,gif,png --level=5 "http://www.website.com/path1/" <--- should this check all the img src= paths and get the resulting images?

[17:29] NetworkingPro the "i love you" virus some 10 years ago, was a script that forked itself each time [17:30] NetworkingPro: You trying to fork-bomb someone? :) [17:30] NetworkingPro, #bash would know [17:30] t-nelson: [17:30] more or less [17:30] Can someone provide me some help, my xorg.conf doesnt seem to apply at startup. When using i3/lightm, either. [17:30] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/aVgj24ep/ [17:31] Then google bash fork-bomb [17:31] NetworkingPro how leagal is what you want to do?

[17:36] Ubuntu will soft-mount the share and it will appear local to vlc. [17:36] TJ-, my thought too, i guess that stream is encrypted with drm [17:36] TJ-, yes i like vlc because it can timeshift to /tmp but i need a working channels.conf or xspf before [17:36] minimec, i used me-tv before [17:36] TJ-: tried that.. thanks but it didn't really fork it. [17:36] t-nelson: I do [17:37] syntroPi: Yeah, I found dvbscan to be fine... once the antenna could find the signal :) [17:37] though that also needs to have a working channels.conf imported === pbx-lunch is now known as pbx [17:37] NetworkingPro: I'm not sure what you want to fork? The script itself, or the application it is starting? [17:38] TJ-: the openvpn client [17:38] want to be able to spawn say 10 running clients [17:38] NetworkingPro: then its up to openvpn to fork itself. [17:38] minimec, does that TV-Viewer support time shifting (e.g. pause) on live tv? [17:38] syntroPi: I remember me-tv. Another nice one is/was tvtime http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/ , but me-tv and tvtime did not work with my hardware encoding ivtv device. [17:38] me-tv does not support time shifting [17:38] NetworkingPro: Are you detaching it? [17:39] ie. your-cmd & [17:39] so the & [17:39] i was doing && [17:39] guess thats diff, my bad [17:39] syntroPi: if using an ivtv based card it might... I don't remember anymore. I had them set up in mythtv too, and used time shifting there... [17:40] minimec, for timeshifting reasons i really liked vlc because one just can press pause there and it will cache live tv to /tmp [17:40] syntroPi: Nice! [17:40] NetworkingPro: cmd1 && cmd2, will run cmd2 only if cmd1 succeeds. cmd1 &, will run cmd1 and immediately background it. [17:41] t-nelson: that was it...

[17:46] t-nelson, http://i59.tinypic.com/wmmu0z.png [17:47] misho_: "no access module" [17:52] hoiiiii === aaron is now known as Guest620 [17:53] minimec: Damn, thanks. [17:54] misho_: The method I first described works fine here. [17:54] misho_: How are you passing hte smb:// path to vlc? [17:55] t-nelson, good question - maybe only VLC can't understand the path? [17:56] misho_: Yes, that's what the log implies. [17:56] It has no handler for smb protocol [17:56] Which is short for Samba [17:56] t-nelson, the how can i fix that? [17:57] misho_: 11:35:58 < t-nelson> misho_: Use file browser to browse LAN, right-click, open with vlc. [17:57] That works fine for me. [17:57] I have no idea how you're passing the path to vlc. [17:58] t-nelson, it is happened again the same [18:00] the stream can't open [18:02] Is this possible, streaming a .mkv with SMB ?? [18:03] i don't find any reason why not... is there something special in .mkv? [18:03] about information security [18:03] OerHeks: of course [18:03] misho_: In VLC, under Tools > plugins and extenstions, is there a "SMB Input" entry? [18:05] wouldn't really call it streaming, but you'd get the same end result, sure [18:05] Hi. What's the difference between apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade ? [18:05] misho_: what version of Ubuntu are you running, and what desktop environment are you using? This may not work unless you are using a desktop environment such as Unity or GNOME [18:05] !dist-upgrade [18:05] A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [18:05] afflicto i guess dist-upgrade removes older packages [18:06] OerHeks was faster [18:06] mcphail, i'm using Ubuntu_Mate 15.04 [18:06] Ok, I'm just looking to stay up-to-date on my 14.04 VPS. I'll use dist-upgrade then. [18:06] t-nelson, where should be located SMB input [18:07] misho_: sudo apt-get install vlc-plugin-samba [18:07] It's not builtin anymore. [18:07] misho_: I don't know if MATE supports this [18:08] t-nelson, after that do i need a restart? [18:08] misho_: Only need to restart vlc [18:09] t-nelson, APPLAUSE!!! [18:09] t-nelson, it is working now [18:09] Indeed :) [18:09] Many thanks [18:10] NP [18:16] t-nelson, can i ask one more thing? [18:17] it is about this HexChat === tvoss is now known as tvoss|test === tvoss|test is now known as tvoss === tvoss is now known as tvoss|test === tvoss|test is now known as tvoss [18:18] misho_: I dunno anything about hexchat, sorry. [18:18] It is some xchat port? [18:18] Err, not port, fork. [18:18] xchat is discontinued, indeed, hexchat is the new fork [18:18] hello [18:19] Because i am from Bulgaria and default alphabet is cyrillic...i can't see properly when someone is writing on cyrillic fonts [18:19] yes,correctly [18:19] Is there somebody here that can help me get mail working on ubuntu? I have a google apps account, and I am trying to get all mail sent from my ubuntu server to relay the mail through google apps [18:19] misho_: Look around for character encoding and make sure it is set to utf-8 [18:20] Also maybe need to change to a font that has the proper glyphs [18:21] I just finished installing Ubuntu Gnome, but the usb drive I installed from still shows up in nautilus. How do I get rid of it? http://imgur.com/BU98LrI,Cige5an [18:21] I've been trying to get it working for a while, and I can't seem to get it to work. [18:21] drfoobaz: It's unmounted, just pull it out. [18:22] t-nelson: "Pull it out?" [18:22] Yes, remove it from the USB port [18:22] t-nelson: Oh, I should clarify that it isn't plugged in. [18:23] drfoobaz: Oh :) [18:23] Or if I can't get help in here, is there a ubuntu wiki guide that explains it? [18:23] Logout/back in? [18:23] t-nelson: Will try. I'll report back. [18:24] UbuntuNewb: You need to talk to Google then, not Ubuntu. [18:24] Err, wait. No I read that backwards. [18:25] t-nelson: It's got nothing to do with google, other than using them as the account. I am trying to configure ubuntu mail system up to use it [18:25] It's a mail server you're configuring, not a client. Right? [18:25] musta [18:25] I installed Ubuntu and got a kernal panic.. [18:25] yeah [18:25] the first line said "kernel panic-not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block(0,0)" [18:26] t-nelson: Logged out, also tried restarting. It still shows up in Nautilus. :( [18:26] My local mail server, so that when mail is sent out, it relays to google mail [18:26] or something like that [18:26] instead of sending from the local server [18:26] Is it possible to run the ubuntu installer from an already booted machine (from USB)? I have a system which is unable to boot from USB, but I have been able to boot a rescue linux system on it and have full access to the USB drive [18:26] drfoobaz: Is it listed when running "mount" in a terminal? [18:26] If i redo the usb once again, would it allow me to do a repair of Ubuntu? [18:28] t-nelson: I don't think so. http://i.imgur.com/ARzsg3J.png [18:28] UbuntuNewb: might want to check out plop which is a boot cd that makes usb booting possible on machines that can't boot via usb. http://www.plop.at/en/bootmanagers.html [18:29] drfoobaz, what is /dev/sdb1 ? [18:29] Aight, GRUB was messed up when I first installed Ubuntu about a year ago. It wouldn't let me onto windows 8. I tampered and got to windows 8 in the BIOS, but I can't get to ubuntu. When I start my PC it comes up with a command line and I have to type exit then exit again. I can't get to BIOS. What do I do? [18:29] squinty: ? [18:29] t-nelson, i found a solution to my problem - just to know if i ask you one day /charset cp1251 [18:31] UbuntuNewb: download plop burn it to cd boot from cd you will be presented with a menu where you can boot from the usb stick (if your computer has usb ports that is) [18:31] squinty- Thanks, but i'm looking for mailserver help, lol [18:32] UbuntuNewb: oooopsss!! sorry :( [18:32] No worries :) [18:33] sveinse: http://www.plop.at/en/bootmanagers.html [18:33] Why does shit like this always happen to me.. Its just my luck.. [18:33] I install Ubuntu and get a kernal panic.. [18:33] drfoobaz: Are there any options if you right-click on the usb's entry in nautilus sidebar? [18:33] sveinse: might want to check out plop which is a boot cd that makes usb booting possible on machines that can't boot via usb. [18:33] Hey! [18:34] t-nelson: Mount and format. [18:34] lets try this freshly made usb again.. I hope trying to repair ubuntu will work [18:34] KernalPaniced: Either your grub is fucked up and specifying the rootfs wrong or your rootfs is on some slow to detect media, like usb. [18:34] hey watch the language family channel!! [18:34] drfoobaz: Do you get an error if you click mount? [18:35] t-nelson is grub fixable in those situations? [18:35] Pff, this isn't #spongebob. [18:35] KernalPaniced: Probably. [18:35] t-nelson: this is a family channel and swearing is not allowed. please read the channel rules [18:35] t-nelson: Yes. http://i.imgur.com/lcE116s.png /dev/sdb is one of my hard drives now [18:36] t-nelson: It was the usb during the install though, I think. [18:36] KernalPaniced: Boot from you usb again and follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair [18:37] squinty: Sure, sure. It's not like I was swearing AT someone or being inflamitory in the slightest. [18:37] How do I boot from SD card when I have no BIOS? Just the GRUB command line. [18:37] No need to be pedantic. [18:37] any one from Microsoft? [18:37] t-nelson: makes no difference [18:37] Not to a pedant :) [18:37] ubuntu249: What do you have instead, if no BIOS? [18:37] Hello Guys, i faced with problem when installing MySQL - "sudo apt-get install mysql-server php5-mysql" i got error - http://pastebin.com/yAA1kJdi maybe who knows what's can be? [18:38] Bekks: it's just the GRUB terminal. [18:38] drfoobaz: You must have an entry somewhere. [18:38] where can i buy new windows? [18:38] ubuntu249: Then you already passed BIOS. [18:38] ubuntu249: all computer have bios. bios is accessed from your initial computer boot screen via keys like f12 or esc. check your computers docs [18:38] Probably either in ~/.cache or some dconf setting. [18:39] Village: paste the full command and output [18:39] UFO69: www.pella.com [18:39] squinty: Some have UEFI instead of a BIOS. [18:39] quite aware of that [18:39] how much [18:39] t-nelson: Is there a way to reset nautilus? That might help. [18:39] Depends on what you choose. [18:39] UFO69, wrong channel. ask in ##windows [18:40] Bekks: How do I put SuperGrub2 on my SD card to then attempt to enter BIOS? [18:40] Double-paned will be less than triple, etc. [18:40] ubuntu249: I never used Supergrub, sorry. [18:40] Ah. What else is there to use? [18:40] hmm [18:40] drfoobaz: Probably. I dunno the "right" way though. [18:40] Universal USB Installer wasn't able to put it on the card. [18:40] I really need to get this mail server working [18:40] Usually I just go rm'ing anything that looks related in ~/.config [18:40] t-nelson: Oh, and ls -R .cache/ | grep nautilus returns nothing. [18:40] Oe how can i instal new windows? === Bish_ is now known as Bish [18:41] UFO69: ask ##windows [18:42] drfoobaz: try grep -ir nautilus .cache [18:42] windows XP? [18:42] ^^ Troll [18:42] UFO69: join ##windows for windows support, this channel is for Ubuntu only. [18:43] any one from microsoft? [18:43] t-nelson: Nothing. [18:43] t-nelson: I also read to rest nautilus to remove .gconf/apps/nautilus but I have no such file. [18:44] UFO69: join ##windows for windows support, this channel is for Ubuntu only. You will find no Microsoft or Windows help here. Please stop asking. [18:44] ubuntu249: if you are hoping to fix grub, you can just use a ubuntu livedvd and then install boot-repair see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting for details [18:44] Ben64: Just ignore it and it will go away. [18:44] any admin from Microsoft? [18:45] UFO69, you have been answered. [18:45] t-nelson: you are preaching to someone who has participated in this channel for years [18:45] I've tinkered with my computer a bit too much. Mysql dies on boot and I have to /etc/init.d/mysql start to get it to work and I get random ^X in the terminal sporadically. Does that sound like anything? [18:45] buy windows [18:45] D: [18:46] squinty: You have a habit of sticking your nose in other people's buisness, eh? [18:46] Ben42, ok i will try show you, now i try install from new to VPS.. [18:46] t-nelson on the newly made bootable usb i done a check disk for defects and it said 2 errors found, I was watching it the whole time the text on the screen, and all the errors i saw was something about error mounting dev/sr0 [18:47] KernalPaniced: sr0 is usually some optical drive. You have one of those? [18:47] t-nelson what is optical? [18:48] cd/dvd/bluray, etc [18:48] t-nelson: time to go get your diaper changed little one. /ignore [18:48] Nice, now I can swear again! [18:49] carefull t-nelson, with that attitude you are not welcome here. [18:49] I have a CD-RW Drive and i just tried one of my CDs and it works fine.. I have no floppy drive at all.. is that what you mean t-nelson? [18:50] KernalPaniced: Right, so there was no media in it before? [18:51] correct [18:51] <_SLM_> Hey, question. Why is default Ubuntu on this older version? Is there a reason for me not upgrade to the latest? [18:51] <_SLM_> I grabbed the main iso from ubuntu.com few days ago [18:51] _SLM_, what older version? [18:52] KernalPaniced: You can probably ignore those errors then. [18:52] <_SLM_> 14 [18:52] <_SLM_> 14.04 [18:52] _SLM_: that's the lts release [18:52] !LTS | _SLM_ [18:52] 14.04.3 is the latest LTS, so not old at all. [18:52] _SLM_: LTS means Long Term Support. 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. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) [18:53] <_SLM_> Yeah, why is it default? Why not get the latest? [18:53] <_SLM_> Should I upgrade? [18:53] <_SLM_> I am a lone developer/student [18:53] What would be the best channel to get help with incron? [18:53] <_SLM_> I just want a secure, stable, pretty OS [18:53] Hello all [18:54] _SLM_ that's it [18:54] _SLM_: if you want to update less, go with the LTS, if you like upgrading then go 15.04. [18:54] <_SLM_> isnt 14.04 less secure being older? [18:55] _SLM_: No. [18:55] _SLM_: It receives updates until 2019. So it isnt "old". [18:55] _SLM_: should get security updates [18:56] drfoobaz, check your /etc/fstab ... maybe it's not a usb device [18:56] <_SLM_> And 15.04? Also upgrades right? [18:57] _SLM_ it's not LTS [18:57] _SLM_ yes, few months [18:58] <_SLM_> Is 15.04 faster/prettier/more secure? If not, I'll stick with this [18:58] <_SLM_> If yes, I'll upgrade [18:58] <_SLM_> Sorry, but I am used to new=good [18:58] <_SLM_> this is confusing [18:58] <_SLM_> for a ubuntu newbie [18:59] _SLM_: new=good is one of the biggest legends :) [18:59] _SLM_ if i may i'd say that not-LTS-release are experimental .... to test it for future stable release [18:59] SLM then go for 15.04 [18:59] hello [18:59] _SLM_: What HW? [18:59] You might win with haswell+ [18:59] <_SLM_> 3 people, 3 opinions heh [18:59] <_SLM_> Intel i5 [18:59] <_SLM_> 6GB ram [19:00] <_SLM_> Decent GPU [19:00] _SLM_: So just use 14.04 64bit. [19:00] _SLM_: and thanks to the magic of GPL you can be the 4th :) [19:00] _SLM_: Just leave 14.04 then. [19:00] so I have questions about ubuntu on phone (rather about some principles, but also technical) I didn't find answers UTG, can you please point me where to look for them? [19:00] That's what I use on my workstation. [19:00] !phone [19:00] Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch . Support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch === robrobinson is now known as Robr3rd [19:00] I've got some netbook with some baytrail nightmare SoC. [19:00] It works OK with 15.04. [19:01] _SLM_: It's rather easy. With LTS you can stick with your version for 5 years or do a 2 year upgrade cycle (from LTS to the next LTS). If you install a NON LTS version, you have to upgrade all 6-9 months until you reach a LTS version. Then you can choose again... [19:01] anyone having trouble with their wifi stopping while appearing to be connected? [19:01] <_SLM_> thanks for the information [19:02] <_SLM_> This should be in a clear header on ubuntu.com IMO [19:02] ludwig: Which chipset? [19:02] thx OerHeks [19:02] how do I see what my chipset is? [19:03] lspci in a terminal [19:03] ^^ ludwig [19:03] lshw ludwig [19:04] What's the deal with the Ubuntu smart phone? Has anyone used it? [19:04] tel Corporation 4 Series Chipset [19:04] intel Corporation 4 series Chipset [19:05] Nah looke for "Network Controller: ..."

Let's say ubuntu touch is not yet where it should be... But remember I use a devel version... But there is a lot going on in the near future.

RTL8192CU 802.11n WLAN Adapter [19:09] drfoobaz, so you have your /home mounted on a different disk , sdc1 ? [19:10] ioria: Different disk yes. [19:10] ludwig: Which ubuntu version? [19:10] Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Gnome [19:11] drfoobaz, but your mount says that sdb1 is mounted in /home [19:12] ioria: yeah i think so [19:12] so it shows a volume not even connected? [19:12] ludwig: Are you using the default 3.13 kernel or the -utopic backports? [19:12] ludwig: Which is 3.16 [19:13] t-nelson: I need to know how to check that, major noob [19:13] drfoobaz, sudo parted -l ? [19:13] In terminal, uname -a [19:13] Guys, maybe some one knows why error installing - " sudo apt-get install mysql-server php5-mysql " os - Ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit). error i paste - http://pastebin.com/WN88i66T ? [19:13] drfoobaz: tried gvfs-mount -l it should show which device that volume it shows in nautilus is on [19:14] that might help identify where its comming from [19:14] it will have the same name as in nautilus there [19:14] t-nelson: 3.19.0-25-generic [19:15] https://u.teknik.io/1PYG8b.png [19:16] mgolisch: sudo apt-get install dialog [19:17] by the looks of it it's 3.19 [19:17] ludwig: Yes. [19:17] drfoobaz, you have no sdc ... [19:17] any idea as to what's up? [19:17] You might need some parameters to pass to the kernel module [19:18] os - Ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit). error - http://pastebin.com/WN88i66T someone please check and maybe knows why it's error [19:18] ioria: I think sdc was the usb I installed from then. [19:18] drfoobaz, your fstab says that your /home is in sdc1 [19:18] ioria: Oh. [19:18] no it says it was [19:19] drfoobaz: I have rtl8723be wifi and it was behaving similarly. Stayed associated with AP, but data stopped. [19:19] I added some module params and it works fine now. === dv__ is now known as dv_ [19:20] I'm tempted to just install again, but be more careful with the partitions and when I remove the usb. [19:20] I'm wondering if I unplugged it before everything was finished. [19:20] Err sorry, my last messages were for ludwig not drfoobaz [19:20] so what is the name of the volume that shows in nautilus? [19:21] mgolisch: "Ubuntu-GNOME 14.04.3 LTS amd64" [19:21] I've posted a thread in how do I add those parameters then? [19:21] according to gvfs-mount thats on your second disk sdb [19:21] Eric^^ are you there ? [19:21] ludwig: You need to find out what the parameters are first. [19:21] They're driver specific. [19:22] terminal code to find them? === stereoit is now known as stereoit_ [19:22] ludwig: No [19:22] drfoobaz, i think you have to correct you fstab, replacing the uid and the partition name [19:23] right ioria [19:23] ioria: ok [19:23] Oh well, I've posted a thread in the forum. I'll see if it get's answered. Thanks for the help t-nelson [19:23] ioria: why? [19:24] drfoobaz, you can get the uid with sudo blkid [19:24] thx [19:24] the uuid should not be wrong if ubuntu was just installed [19:24] unless the filesystem was reinitialized inbetween or something [19:24] mgolisch: the problem i guess is a third hdd [19:24] mgolisch, his fstab says that /home is sdc1 but parted -l says different [19:24] I think mgolisch. The uid from blkid and in /etc/fstab are the same [19:25] ioria: no it doesnt, it says it was sc1 during install [19:25] but it uses a uuid so thats not relevant [19:25] ioria: yes [19:26] drfoobaz: can you pastebin the output of this: sudo lsblk -o name,mountpoint,label,size,uuid [19:26] what's up? [19:26] Eric^^ can you assist drfoobaz ... [19:26] ? [19:26] fstab has nothing to do with what nautilus shows there. [19:27] mgolisch: look in both pastebin, in fstab is in sdc but gparted have only two HDD [19:27] That's all gvfsd stuff. [19:28] Hi all, I want to customize an ubuntu installation image to contain some packages and their dependencies so that I can install them with no network. Is there a good document for that? [19:28] someone have a same point like me? [19:28] kadiro: where does it say sdc1 there? [19:28] Eric^^ parted -l https://u.teknik.io/1PYG8b.png fstab http://i.imgur.com/7NZ2C2n.png [19:28] mgolisch: in fstab file [19:29] no [19:29] it says : was on sdc1 during installation [19:29] mgolisch: https://paste.teknik.io/1686 [19:29] conan^: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization [19:29] mgolisch: where is a third HDD ? [19:30] Thank you minimec ! [19:30] kadiro: he had installed from usb stick removed after the installation [19:30] mgolisch: Wait. It looks like the only problem is the name "Ubuntu-GNOME." Is that all? [19:30] so that could have been sdb or whatever at that time [19:30] mgolisch: you right ouups [19:31] mgolisch: Ah, so I was wrong in my initial assumption that the usb was lingering. [19:31] So how do I change the name to something more understandable? [19:32] Oh, hold it can't just be a name issue. [19:32] drfoobaz, it is not ? [19:32] Because it fails to mount when I click it. [19:32] ioria: looks good.. what's the problem? [19:32] minimec: The link is a bit outdated (like the alternate image) but I'll start with that. Thanks again [19:33] Eric^^ sorry for the drill ... maybe i misunderstood :P ... [19:33] drfoobaz: what's the device path it tries to mount? [19:33] i have never seen labels on disks [19:33] conan^: Yeah that is often the case with 'community' tutorials and docs... [19:34] t-nelson "/dev/sdb2 at /media/zach/Ubuntu-GNOME 14.04.3 LTS amd64" [19:34] minimec: Yup. Once I know how to do this, I might [19:34] mgolisch: The labels are on the filesystem, not the disk. [19:34] ... update the doc [19:34] ;) [19:35] no conan^ [19:36] drfoobaz: try grep -Hnir '/dev/sdb2/' ~ [19:37] ioria: hehe np :) [19:37] Eric^^ thanks again [19:37] it seems to think theres a filesystem on /dev/sdb2 [19:38] which seems to be an extendted partition [19:38] t-nelson: nothing [19:38] mgolisch: More likely there's some stale entry cached somewhere. [19:38] mgolisch, the swap https://u.teknik.io/1PYG8b.png [19:38] This is a fresh install guys, I'm really thinking I'll just do it again. [19:40] does blkid show that label for /dev/sdb2 too? [19:40] Hi, I'm looking for a software suggestion: anyone knows of a "buzzword generator I could install". I would like to feed it a couple of verbs and nouns. And it could generate buzz sentences containing those words [19:41] drfoobaz: could you reiterate your problem if you dont mind? [19:42] EriC: In the nautilus sidebar it shows this unmountable "Ubuntu-GNOME" device. [19:43] drfoobaz: ok, do you have a drive connected? [19:44] other than the 2 in parted -l? [19:44] no [19:44] ah sorry [19:45] that's your 700gb ext4 partition [19:45] does it show up as mounted in df -h ? [19:46] Ben64, do you here? [19:46] it's /dev/sdb1 === ochorocho1 is now known as ochorocho [19:53] guys [19:53] what nick is JENDRAL YOHANES PATRA [19:53] guard you'r mouth [19:53] is useless to talk in code [19:54] WE ARE ALL FUCK [19:54] Indeed!

[20:09] can DD be used to put multiple ISO's on a drive? === timezone is now known as time_zone [20:09] kadiro banned, of course for no reason [20:09] previous was taken :) [20:09] OerHeks it is [20:10] also you from NL OerHeks? [20:10] MeatPopsicle, good guess :-) [20:10] MonkeyDust: for saying just one word ( swear ) i'm banned for 30 days [20:10] i have filenames with special characters in it [20:11] can i use rename to for example rename ô and ö into o ? [20:11] and not in 2 separate commando's [20:11] OerHeks My wife is on Facetime right next to me speaking Dutch to her mom, I have some experience you could say lol\ [20:12] rename 's/ô/o/g' does the trick but i prefer to have ô & ö in 1 command [20:12] MeatPopsicle: *not* a chat channel [20:12] use awk === Neophyte is now known as Guest21164 [20:13] or sed [20:13] time_zone: sed -e 's/[ôö]/o/g' [20:13] sed failed on me ( or i failed sed ) [20:13] i try :) === aktx_ is now known as aktx [20:14] it's about 75 weird characters... i prefer to have as less as possible lines :) [20:15] You probably wanna do soemthing like: echo mv "$FILE" "$(echo $FILE | sed -e 's/[ôö]/o/g')" [20:15] Then once you're sure it will do what your want, remove the echo. [20:15] *first echo [20:15] There's probably some tool to do that === IdleOne is now known as Guest18872 [20:16] can DD be used to create a working multiboot? === PlasmaStar is now known as Guest0 [20:17] MeatPopsicle: no [20:17] A working multiboot what? [20:18] flash drive. [20:18] daftykins: Odds are you can use dd to do anything with enough time and patience :) [20:18] multiboot of Linux distros, YUMI never seems to want to work for me [20:18] MeatPopsicle: you could use dd to clone an existing multiboot drive, but you would struggle badly to _create_ a new one [20:18] t-nelson: yes but notice that unhelpful qualification you added to the end which doesn't help the user. [20:18] MeatPopsicle scroll down to the end of this page http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ [20:19] daftykins: Which is why I directed it at you, not the user. [20:19] t-nelson: ok well don't say anything pointless to me in future ty :) === Guest0 is now known as PlasmaStar [20:20] MonkeyDust does this work better than YUMI? [20:20] MeatPopsicle never tried it, i use linux [20:21] MonkeyDust so do I, the YUMI for Ubuntu doesnt agree with me apparently [20:22] MeatPopsicle: your issues with YUMI might end up being pretty basic. are you sure you're using the latest version - and that the drive has been totally *properly* wiped to begin with? does it boot any, or none? [20:22] I asked on #winehq but since there's no reply I thought I'd ask here. If my game is randomly locking up my whole computer including mouse and keyboard and I have to hit reset button, is that likely a hardware issue instead of software? [20:22] it boots but says no OS, i wipe it with gparted and format it as fat32 [20:22] MeatPopsicle i'm not following... yumi is for windows, no? [20:23] LonelyDanbo: 99.999999999% GPU driver issue. [20:23] MonkeyDust they also have a linux version [20:23] Thanks, t-nelson [20:23] Np [20:23] LonelyDanbo: Which gpu? [20:23] MeatPopsicle then use multisystem, it's really easy [20:23] MeatPopsicle: setup Multisystem with a couple of iso's using ubuntu 14.04 a couple of weeks ago. no problems [20:23] daftykins it boots but says no OS, i wipe it with gparted and format it as fat32 [20:23] MeatPopsicle: alright well dd the first 100MB with zeroes then try again - also, i was only aware of it being a Windows program. [20:24] Heh, 4KB is plenty. [20:24] Just need to wipe out the MBR/GPT [20:24] Then 448 bytes is plenty. [20:24] t-nelson Uhm... not sure. I think... NVideo GeForce GTX 660. [20:24] t-nelson: either address someone or don't bother to speak [20:25] i found out... tnx to who helped me out [20:26] LonelyDanbo: OK, n/m. I know of a similar issue on Intel haswell gfx HW. [20:26] http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/ it has Ubuntu/Debian versions at the bottom [20:26] But that won't help you on nvidia. [20:27] MeatPopsicle why don't you try MultiSystem? [20:28] so what would be the easiest way to set all traffic to default over to eth1 globally on ubuntu? [20:28] MeatPopsicle: maybe you're not running it with gksudo or something [20:28] gbit86__: Setup routing accordingly. [20:28] gbit86__: why eth1? [20:28] Monkeydust I am about to in a few minutes [20:28] in vagrant and need my dev to send all traffic over the bridged interfaced, not the nat [20:28] the nat creates a lot of issues [20:29] gbit86__: So setup routing accordingly. [20:29] and I am trying to set the routing correctly... [20:29] just thought there might be an easier way [20:29] That is the easy way. [20:29] gbit86__: can't you just disable the nat? [20:30] Nope, killing the nat kills the vagrant integration [20:30] if it works I can use the 5 pack of USB drives I have coming to make Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Mint and more multiboots [20:30] Vagrant does not like to play nicely over a single bridged interface [20:30] sounds like a brittle tool [20:30] I know, but it is all the rage. [20:31] gbit86__: like tupperware parties? [20:33] artois: not sure what you mean [20:34] gbit86__: you make my point well =) [20:34] both are soon forgotten [20:37] why does double clicking the multisystem script not give me any options [20:38] the what? [20:38] so what is wrong with this "ip route add $P1_NET dev $IF1 src $IP1 table ISP1" ? [20:38] I get an error that says "Error: argument "ISP1" is wrong: "table" value is invalid" [20:40] The example I pulled from had table as something that needs to be set, but the man page in ubuntu does not mention it === alf_ is now known as asf === asf is now known as cosmo === cosmo is now known as Guest37606 [20:43] Hi all! [20:44] Why is Vim getting borders from top and bottom in gnome terminal, Ubuntu 14.04? Screenshot: http://oi62.tinypic.com/hteb89.jpg [20:45] Switching from Mac OS X to Ubuntu and wondering if there's a way to enable system-wide key bindings like on the Mac. https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/EventOverview/TextDefaultsBindings/TextDefaultsBindings.html [20:46] What is the best version for an old Dimension 8200 (256MB) with a CDRW? [20:47] locoloco, i don't think so. i could be wrong but i don't think the text widgetry was built with that possibility in mind [20:47] (and i say that as a osx-to-ubuntu user who misses those uniform text editing bindings) [20:48] pbx: thanks...however painful it is to hear that! [20:49] instantp10neer, lubuntu i guess === Bnaya_ is now known as Bnaya [20:50] instantp10neer: that is going to struggle to run anyhting useful if you want a GUI [20:50] locoloco, let me know if you learn anything. i'd love to be wrong :) http://news.e-scribe.com/444 [20:50] i was thinking older versions. [20:51] instantp10neer: older versions aren't supported and are unlikely to work any better [20:52] pbx: cannot believe there's no recognized way to being able to edit an email or searching the Dash with the same ease as using emacs. [20:53] support is not an issue, i am seeking something that gets someone on an old computer with minimal 'effort' [20:54] instantp10neer, lubuntu sounds like a good idea [20:55] instantp10neer: OerHeks: lubuntu still recommends 512MB minimum [20:56] instantp10neer: good luck, but ubuntu (new or old) or its derivatives are unlikely to be useful for you [20:57] ill try talking the victim in to a hefty $10 ram investment [20:57] instantp10neer: :) [20:58] hallo [20:58] * alex19 i need a ubunt version they runnes on a noteboot with win 98 [20:58] does anyone else in here use nzbget [20:59] i have a question if i goto the nzbget website it has linux section for the latest build yet the onei just installed is only 12. not 15. sooooo is there a way to install the .run file from the website or is that only for certain linux distros [21:00] hello, what can be done to save pulseaudio settings for volume? [21:00] alex19, notebooK with win98 ? what are the specs ? [21:02] i dont know i only know he has win 98 and is old :-D is a notbook [21:02] abb0: nzbget is in the repositories [21:03] !info nzbget precise [21:03] nzbget (source: nzbget): command-line based binary newsgrabber for nzb files. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.7.0-2 (precise), package size 177 kB, installed size 432 kB [21:03] abb0: if you choose to use a different version it can't be supported here [21:04] well i was just asking is that the only version stable on ubuntu [21:04] 12 is the version in repos [21:04] im not asking for help i guess then, just curious if there is any reason 15 isnt in the repos? is it b/c it is unsupported? [21:05] !latest [21:05] Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. [21:05] abb0: ^ [21:05] i dont know i only know he has win 98 and is old :-D is a notbook [21:05] Hi guys , anyone an idea of what specs you need to run a webshop ? [21:06] o ok. [21:06] hi. I'm awaiting my order for a laptop with my first ever ssd in it. What file system would you recommend, are there any tips/tricks to managing it best? The drives in question will be 256GB MLC mSATA + 500GB seagate sshd (500GB hdd + 8GB MLC, handled by drive's controller) [21:06] thanks [21:06] so its a better safe than sorry policy, i got it. [21:07] abb0: yep [21:07] sorry to ask, ;) thanks for heads up [21:07] alex19, cannot say what version suits best, try lubuntu and xubuntu [21:07] janisozaur: no need to do anything. ext4, that's it [21:07] ok thanks [21:07] janisozaur: whatever you prefer. ext4 or btrfs would be good [21:08] https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/comments/3ghesw/fixing_bug_in_production/ [21:09] aktx, reddithumor is offtopic here [21:09] OerHeks, sry [21:10] hi [21:11] Hey people [21:11] hey Ktitochka [21:11] :-) [21:12] :-* [21:12] thanks [21:13] itś all right??? [21:13] it´s [21:13] Ktitochka, do you have an Ubuntu support issue? [21:14] no [21:14] because???

[21:15] yes [21:15] !offtopic | Ktitochka [21:15] Ktitochka: #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!

Para entrar no canal por favor faça "/join #ubuntu-br" sem as aspas. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, use #ubuntu-pt. Obrigada. [21:19] anyone know an average time for a mamtest? [21:19] There are ways of remapping your keys system wide locoloco, not sure why no one mentioned it. Look into how to edit the xmodmap file in your home user directory [21:20] I have done it so that my keyboard feels more like mac while using linux. [21:21] Seems like a minor thing, but for someone who uses and is constantly learning new shortcut keys it is critically important that our keys stay in the proper physical locations. I wish Linux and Windows made it as easy to change as it is on a mac. [21:21] alguem fala portugues??? [21:22] oki [21:23] finetundra__, not really, let memtest86 run 2 rounds, should be a short test. [21:24] hey folks. installed a 500GB samsung SSD drive on my laptop. i have an existing ubuntu version running on the laptop on an older hard drive. question: 1) Should i completely re-install ubuntu on the new hard drive? or mirror it somehow? 2) what size partition for / and for /home (20gb and 480 gb)? [21:24] arooni-mobile: clonezilla [21:24] gbit86__, nobody mentioned xmodmap because the question was about keybindings inside text fields. osx enables basic emacs bindings in all by default [21:25] isnt this a nice opportunity to start from scratch? [21:25] and install the OS from scratch? [21:25] arooni-mobile: if you want, but no need. [21:25] pbx: gbit86__: Found this --> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Keybindings but I'll take a look at xmodmap and see where it takes me [21:26] daftykins, i think that it would be easiest to use clonezilla huh [21:26] daftykins, is 20GB /root/ partition enough space? [21:26] arooni-mobile: I would install from scratch and keep everything under one mount point, unless you realluy need to separate / and /home [21:26] locoloco, neither will help you i'm afraid. but if you prove me wrong post a comment on that blog post i linked to? [21:26] Alguem me explique normalmente como eu posso falar com gente portuguesa prff ??????????????? [21:26] :( [21:26] arooni-mobile: what software do you use? do you work on it? [21:27] !pt | Ktitochka [21:27] Ktitochka: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para entrar no canal por favor faça "/join #ubuntu-br" sem as aspas. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, use #ubuntu-pt. Obrigada. [21:27] daftykins, web development mostly [21:27] but getitng into android development too [21:27] i'd go at least 40GB then [21:27] nao consigo ubottu [21:27] Ktitochka: ubottu = bot. are you saying you can't join #ubuntu-br ? [21:27] right now i have 20GB assinged to /root/ and i've used 16.87 of it [21:28] is there an advantage to mounting / on a separate partition from /home? [21:28] arooni-mobile: heh yeah that's not good then. maybe call it a nice even 50GB minimum. android stuff might be quite chunky [21:28] arooni-mobile: only for reinstalls. [21:28] yes a can´t [21:28] arooni-mobile: not in my opinion [21:28] lets say i installed from scratch [21:28] is there a way to get a list of installed software [21:28] packages [21:28] Ktitochka: go ask in #freenode how to register. [21:29] OerHeks: how do I tell how many rounds it's gone? [21:29] arooni-mobile: yes, but what version are you on now? [21:29] daftykins, ubuntu 14.10 [21:30] but i have a fresh version of ubntu 15.04 downloaded [21:30] so not sure whether better to clone [21:30] finetundra__, if 'pass %' is over 100% [21:30] or start over from scratch and install and copy over what's necessary [21:30] arooni-mobile: no - install fresh. 14.10 is dead [21:30] should i combine the / and /home on same partition? [21:31] arooni-mobile: you sure you don't want to work on LTS, since you know... you won't get hassled by forced upgrades? [21:31] daftykins, thats a good point [21:31] daftykins, what do i really lose being on LTS? [21:32] repos might have older software sometimes [21:32] also; i think there'd be an advantage running same OS on my dev box as i run on servers [21:32] OerHeks: 100% would be 2 rounds? [21:32] but then most likely devs pull in software from PPAs anyway i would think [21:32] finetundra__: no watch for the value 'Pass' to increment to '2' [21:32] pbx: from how I read it the question was about system wide keybinding, but whatever. [21:32] finetundra__, no, just 1 round [21:33] how do you type unicode characters on ubuntu, for example; u+2026 [21:33] pbx: sure thing! === Tristan-Speccy is now known as Guest55401 [21:36] pokergod: ctl-shift-u and then the unicode hex , then enter [21:37] hey folks. installed a 500GB samsung SSD drive on my laptop. i have an existing ubuntu version running on the laptop on an older hard drive. question: 1) Should i completely re-install ubuntu on the new hard drive? or mirror it somehow? 2) do /home and / need to be on different partitions? 3) should i be running 14.04 lts versus 15.04? [21:38] arooni-mobile: er why post again [21:38] sorry i thought i was in a different irc network [21:38] my mistake [21:39] XD [21:39] just do it! [21:39] yo [21:39] what about the / and /home issue; any advantage to having them on separate partitions? [21:40] arooni-mobile: more disadvantages than advantages, imho [21:40] arooni-mobile: i responded to that already, it would allow reinstalls easier. [21:40] any one help me with touchpad ? [21:41] it was working very fine [21:41] arooni-mobile: a "middle ground" would be to use btrfs as your filesystem. The installer will set up separate / and /home subvolumes so you get the advantages without the disadvantages [21:41] about a minute, now i can only use its button [21:41] arooni-mobile: depends on many things, if you want the latest and newest, then 15.04, bearing in mind that support is just about 12months, now 14.04 has LTS, or support for 5years, I'd do a new install on the ssd, and move over the /home from the older hdd, so you don't have to spend 4hours reconfiguring everything, apps and OS === Eggs is now known as Guest72088 [21:42] …test [21:43] arooni-mobile: do /home and / need to be in separate partitions? nope, it helps to have them separate for the sake of categorizing and any reinstalling, but you could have them in the same partition [21:43] I'm running Ubuntu 14.04, and am attempting to use rc.local to handle some startup processing. /etc/init.d/rc.local and /etc/rc.local both exist and are executable, and the /etc/rc*.d/S99rc.local symlinks exist. Am I missing something that might prevent /etc/init.d/rc.local from executing? I put some tests into the startup script itself, but it never got that far, so I know it isn't running that startup script at all. [21:44] Forgot to mention, they are also set root:root, as they should be. [21:44] any facebook hacker here ? [21:44] AnyOne ??? [21:45] gbit86__: Q was system-wide. For example, "Ctrl-h" in OS X deletes a character backwards...regardless if you are in Terminal, Spotlight or Chrome. Incredibly useful feature! Surprised to see it missing in Ubuntu. [21:46] locoloco: the delete key does that... :) [21:46] pokergod: ✓ [21:46] mcphail: good one! [21:49] user1254, thank you! [21:49] pokergod: ur welcome [21:50] hello [21:52] ? [22:00] does anybody remember the name of that iso that allows you to boot e.g. ubuntu on a usb thumbdrive on a computer that doesnt allow usb booting? [22:01] ah, was not aware of Ctrl-h deleting characters across the board... almost sound like a backspace key :P [22:01] F6F7 use a dvd or use pxe [22:01] nvm, found it (Plop Boot Manager) [22:01] can ext4 partitions be resized easily? [22:02] MonkeyDust: the computer doesnt even allow dvd booting [22:02] hmmm [22:03] arooni-mobile, Never had an issue here. [22:03] F6F7: something tells me that, if the machine is decently new and doesn't do usb booting, Plop isn't going to do much [22:03] arooni-mobile, let us know if you have encryption, lvm....etc [22:03] F6F7: is this an older or new computer? [22:04] arooni-mobile, Be backed up, anything can fail, at any time. [22:07] id like to be able to encrypt the /home diretory [22:07] the evo supports hardware encryption of osme kind i think [22:07] bprompt: it's pretty old (10 years) [22:07] arooni-mobile: That doesn't do you any good on a multiuser system. [22:08] On a single user system, it's no different from encrypting /home/user [22:09] F6F7: hmm I see [22:09] im a single user [22:09] on my laptop [22:10] artzone: probably no use unless on Windows [22:10] Right, so encrypting /home is no better than encrypting /home/user for you. [22:11] It's not that you can't do it, just that you can't do it by ticking a box in the installer. [22:12] t-nelson, Welcome thanks for stopping by and helping, if you could try to preface answers with the nic. [22:12] wileee: Sure sure [22:12] ;) [22:16] Hi === mack_ is now known as HyperFuse [22:17] OK I think i have the partitioning set up for my new hard drive (500 GB SSD): 30GB for /root/, 462 GB for /home/, followed by 8GB for SWAP (i have a laptop i'd like to be able to suspend/resume). does this order look good? [22:17] and should it be logical or primary volumes? [22:18] arooni-mobile: partition type doesn't matter [22:18] t-nelson, if i wanted to resize /root in the future, would that be OK? i.e. reduce or increase size of /home compared to /root [22:19] arooni-mobile: Honestly, you may as well use PGT [22:19] arooni-mobile: You mean /root as in / or the root user's home dir? [22:19] PGT? [22:19] s/PGT/GPT [22:19] :) [22:22] t-nelson, 30 gb for / , and 462 for /home [22:23] arooni-mobile, Just remember encrypting is a good way to lose everything in it, and resizing is not a beginners job. [22:23] arooni-mobile: If you suspect you'll need to resize, I'd just allocate more now. [22:24] arooni-mobile: Growing is pretty safe, but shrinking/moving are risky. Which is what you'll have to do if you butt all of the partitions up against one another. [22:24] i'm using the laptop in the way id probably be using it in the futuer (disregarding the installation of the android dev enviorment) and i'm using 17gb of 20gb allocated to / [22:25] arooni-mobile: The other option is to leave unallocated space between the partitions which either can take. [22:25] so i was thinking 30 gb would be enough? [22:25] thats an interesting idea [22:25] so maybe 30GB there, then an allocated 10GB between / and /home [22:25] arooni-mobile: Though you will still have to move the one starting at a larger offset. [22:25] artzone: no go for 50 [22:26] arooni-mobile: Size of / is really a matter of how long you plan to keep the install. [22:26] arooni-mobile: You'll collect all kinds of crap. [22:26] no it's not, it's a matter of what software you use [22:26] I just purged like a dozen kernels :) [22:27] daftykins: He's already at 30GB. He can basically install all of apt. [22:27] at 20 [22:27] i'm using 17GB of 20 [22:27] also the task mentioned was android dev [22:27] so... [22:27] but without android dev enviornment [22:27] Now you have to ask whether app or system level android dev. [22:28] app level [22:28] 'cause I do the latter and can tell you that 500GB is NOT going to cut it :) [22:28] haha well i'll leave the heavy lifting to you [22:28] i just want to build a few android apps [22:28] arooni-mobile: Right, so you'll be fine installing any SDK stuff in your ~ [22:29] t-nelson, so you think a 30GB / partition is enough? [22:29] t-nelson, would you recommend ubuntu 15.04 or 14.04LTS? [22:29] I can only tell you that 20GB isn't enough for me. [22:30] whats your / size? [22:30] Because my / is constantly full. === n is now known as Guest39957 [22:30] arooni-mobile, Really the resizing moving is easy, never had an issue, but once you encrypt, than it is more advanced, I would avoid the encrypt really. [22:30] ok ill maybe hold off on encryption [22:30] arooni-mobile: I'd stick with 14.04, most of the Android stuff is OK there now. [22:30] I have tried 15.04 for dev. [22:31] great; ill use 14.04. id rather have all available tools [22:31] at last :P now go do it! [22:31] hahahahhahaha [22:31] can i install via my existing running version of ubuntu to the other drive, or do i need to boot from a flash drive / cd? [22:31] And then realize you made a horrible mistake and do it all over again tomorrow! :) [22:31] boot media [22:31] arooni-mobile, You can encrypt a folder if needed, I do that for passwords. [22:32] wileee, didnt think of doing it that way ; i like that idea [22:32] ok so i will use ubuntu startup disk creator [22:33] sounds goood [22:33] without encryption [22:34] t-nelson, so do you think 30G for /, then 460 for /home , and 10GB for /swap is good nuff'? [22:34] arooni-mobile, Nice thing is once you get all set up and know the sizes you need you can fairly easily reproduce it encrypted if yo9u want to. [22:34] arooni-mobile: How much RAM do you have? [22:34] yeah good call [22:34] t-nelson, 8GB [22:34] Is that all the laptop will take? [22:35] t-nelson, i think it could run up to 16GB technically [22:36] although i'm looking for a better dev machine so i can do android/iphone apps [22:36] arooni-mobile: Actually, so long as you don't try to suspend in the middle of compiling a dozen apps, you'll be ok with 10GB [22:36] so looking for a mac mini , or mac book pro [22:36] Probably overkill even. [22:36] I only have 7GB on my workstation with 32GB RAM. [22:36] *7GB swap. [22:36] t-nelson i guess the guy wants a yes or no [22:37] i just want to get this right so i dont have to resize partitions etc later [22:37] MonkeyDust: I can barely answer that for myself on any give install :) [22:37] im just gonna do the 30GB / [22:37] its either going to work or it wont [22:37] hahaha [22:37] And I've been installing OSes for going on 20yrs. [22:38] by the time he installs 14.04 will be out of support [22:38] hahahha [22:38] XD [22:38] :P [22:38] Can someone help me setup a Java environment on Ubuntu? [22:38] !java [22:38] To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. [22:38] false, i just wrote the LTS to a flash drive; and am about to reboot & install now [22:39] Better not be. I have no ambition of setting up a new dev environment anytime soon. [22:39] can someone help me understand the permisions in the /var/www/html file === opt is now known as opt2opt [22:40] i am trying to use php to print to a file [22:40] TechMonger2: You probably want #whateverhttpdyoureusing. [22:40] TechMonger2: www-data has to have write access to it i guess === Blaster is now known as Guest7769 [22:41] EriC^^, i have read that. how do i edit that users file permisions? [22:41] Sounds like a good way to open up an RCE. [22:41] i cant find that user [22:41] TechMonger2: you don't edit user's permissions, you edit file permissions [22:41] right. i have to be logged into the user tho right? [22:42] i used chmod +1111 [22:42] type sudo chgrp www-data /var/www/html to change the group of the dir [22:42] no [22:42] hmm [22:42] O.o [22:43] what is chgrp? [22:43] type sudo chmod 775 /var/www/html [22:43] nev [22:43] what is 775 [22:43] rwxrwxr-x [22:43] This box is getting hacked for sure :) [22:43] xp [22:53] hello [22:53] i am using ubuntu 15.04 [22:53] is there an mtp package do connect to samsung 4 device ? [22:53] *to [22:54] phpcoder, Android, should mount, you have the usb developer ticked in android? [22:54] phpcoder: MTP is a standard. Did Samsung bastardize it? [22:55] the problem is that sometimes the device seems dead [22:55] i have many photos [22:55] so maybe it can not load all of them [22:55] phpcoder: If you're working with photos, try to switch the USB mode to PTP. [22:56] yes i connect via usb [22:56] t-nelson, how can i change it ? [22:56] phpcoder, You are not answering basic questions, but just commenting, that does not work here. [22:57] Uhh, assuming samsung hasn't made too big a mess, Android Settings > Storage > "..." Menu > USB Computer Connection [22:57] ok i search it [22:57] thanks [22:57] has to have the developer option ticked is all [22:58] wileee: Since when, MTP/PTP should work without dev mode [22:58] In fact, I've seen dev mode interfere on some devices. [22:59] t-nelson, I just do it automatically, however I'm fairly sure it's need, if not than I learn something. ;) [23:00] wileee: Yeah. I just tested. MTP mode, USB debugging off. Mounted fine in 14.04. [23:00] That's on a Nexus 5 [23:00] t-nelson, What android release? [23:01] 5.1.whatever fixed that libstagefright exploit. [23:01] heh good [23:01] I just pulled the OTA this morning. [23:01] phpcoder: what android is it running? 4.x? 2.3? samsung 4, you mean, samsung galaxy s4? [23:02] Hrm, I guess it's still 5.1.1. [23:03] good is running with shotwell [23:03] bprompt, yes samsung galaxy 4 [23:03] ? [23:04] phpcoder: samsung has several "4"S [23:04] s [23:04] Hehehe :) [23:04] phpcoder: but anyhow, is likely android 4.x, but you said is mounted, so tis ok [23:04] anyone know how to write to files via cloud init 12.04? write_files doesn’t work [23:04] yes is mounted and a selected ptp === josh is now known as Guest98444 [23:23] i just installed linux mint / cinnamon ; i cant figure out how to switch to enlightenment or another w.m [23:23] hi. recently upgraded to ubuntu 15.04 which destroyed my vlc installation. trying to reinstall i get the following: http://pastebin.com/h4V1yjcg [23:23] when i log out / log back in it has no options to change sessions [23:23] i tried installing from ppa:videolan/master-daily, was able to install vlc-nox but still unable to install vlc [23:24] try to install from ppa:n-muench/vlc as recommended here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/633987/how-to-install-vlc-2-2-1-in-ubuntu-15-04... still no luck [23:24] any tips? thanks. [23:25] tats: PPAs are unsupported, I'm afraid [23:26] !mint [23:26] Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [23:26] mcphail, well, i don't mind disabling ppas but isn't vlc supported under vivid? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/vivid/+source/vlc [23:27] tats: vlc is supported. vlc from a PPA isn't. vlc broken by a previous PPA isn't either [23:27] it was not working *without* the ppas. [23:27] tats: did you have any PPAs installed before the upgrade? [23:27] mcphail, "vlc broken by a previous PPA isn't either" i see. that must be it. [23:28] tats: Disable those ppas, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get remove vlc.*, sudo install vlc. [23:28] *sudo apt-get install vlc [23:28] t-nelson, thanks, will try. [23:28] tats: you can try using ppa-purge, but using PPAs can ruin your system and will break distro updates === n_ is now known as just-now [23:28] tats: It looks like the vlc package got split up in 15.04. Probably the issue. [23:30] why are the lubuntu servers sooooo slow when downloading an iso...... ugh [23:31] surgy: Use the torrents [23:31] They always max my line. [23:33] * t-nelson may as well try his question again [23:34] Anyone know how switching BIOS to CSM boot mode and back to UEFI can break grub? [23:34] Reinstalling with boot-repair fixes it. [23:34] Maybe someone knows what's can be when installed vsftpd on Ubuntu 14.04, at connect gets - 500 OOPS: prctl PR_SET_SECCOMP failed , then to vsftpd.conf added new line - seccomp_sandbox=no and try connect 500 error no gets, but user pass says that is bad? P.S. try with not root user [23:37] t-nelson, maybe your boot order is changing? the first drive to boot has to have grub installed [23:37] surgy: Nah, only one disk. [23:38] And the distilled orders in BIOS don't change. Alwasy USB, HDD, NET [23:38] mcphail, dully noted [23:39] surgy: I'm wondering if maybe UEFI generates some key for secure boot and that is changing when switching modes. [23:39] That's all I can think of anyway. [23:39] Short of *gasp!* a BIOS bug. [23:40] * t-nelson curses at Zotac for the pi320 [23:40] t-nelson: UEFI ; signed kernel image ? [23:41] another hour to dl 700 mb.... [23:41] Bashing-om: Maybe, does the 15.04 installer choose that by default if secure boot is enabled? [23:41] surgy: please take the chat over to #ubuntu-offtopic if you insist on carrying on [23:41] sry [23:42] t-nelson: Yeah, I do expect the installer to do so . [23:42] Ah, so maybe I should ensure the secure mode is off and install again... [23:42] Though the point of this machine is security. [23:43] Maybe I'd be better off trying to figure out why Tails doesn't boot in UEFI mode [23:43] t-nelson: I do not have UEFI experience, so can not say further . [23:43] Bashing-om: OK, thanks. At least I have something to look into. [23:45] I'm back [23:45] t-nelson: K; If ya install in CCSM, then the signed kernel for UEFI is nullified . [23:46] t-nelson, mcphail after purging, updating, removing and reinstalling i still got the same problem. thanks for your help. i guess i need to reinstall my whole system... [23:46] Bashing-om: Right. I was hoping to avoid that. [23:46] tats: The same errror as you pasted? [23:46] 'cause that one was pretty clearly point to some PPA [23:46] surgy: No PM. [23:47] t-nelson: Then insure that when you install, in the firmware UEFI is set . [23:47] t-nelson, yes "Depends: libgles1-mesa (>= 7.8.1) but it is not going to be installed or libgles1" [23:48] tats: What version is installed? [23:49] t-nelson, currently it's 15.04. i was on 14.04 and had the ppa mc3man/trusty-media/ubuntu installed. i should have purged it before upgrading to 15.04 but forgot to do so. [23:49] Nah, what version of libgles1-mesa. [23:49] ^^ tats === Guest55401 is now known as Tristan-Spec === Tristan-Spec is now known as Tristan-Speccy [23:52] tats: ' apt-cache policy libgles1-mesa ' . [23:52] hey guys, having some isues with 2 USBs, I've been creating bootable linux distros with unetbootin and startup disk creator, and after hitting 'erase disk' in the latter I can no longer use or reformat, delete, mount the USBs no matter how many times I use Gparted to wipe them and reformat them to ext3 or fat32. What could it be?? [23:53] basiclaser: Soudns like the flash is shot. [23:53] *Sounds [23:53] in both ?? [23:53] t-nelson: [23:53] basiclaser: If you've been using the heavily, I wouldn't be surprised. [23:53] t-nelson, Bashing-om http://pastebin.com/39SQA2W7 [23:54] tats: Try install libgles1-mesa manually [23:55] !info libgles1-mesa [23:55] libgles1-mesa (source: mesa): free implementation of the OpenGL|ES 1.x API -- runtime.
