| sleight | hi | 00:02 |
| sleight | i'm running a server | 00:02 |
| sleight | im just trying to get a local xterm running | 00:02 |
| t-nelson | sleight: Soudns like an oxymoron. | 00:03 |
| t-nelson | Servers generally aren't running X. | 00:03 |
| t-nelson | You just want a console or what? | 00:03 |
| tats | Bashing-om, how can i ppa-purge 10.5.9-2ubuntu1~vivid1? | 00:04 |
| sleight | yes | 00:06 |
| t-nelson | tats, you must still have some PPA enabled. | 00:06 |
| tats | t-nelson, is there a way to list all my ppas? | 00:06 |
| Bashing-om | !ppa-purge | tats | 00:07 |
| ubottu | tats: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 00:07 |
| t-nelson | tats: ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list | 00:07 |
| tats | oh my. yes i have tons of them... | 00:09 |
| sleight | here's what i actually mean- I'd like to have a minimal ubuntu install with dwm as a window manager | 00:09 |
| sleight | how do a get to there from a ubuntu-server install | 00:10 |
| tats | ok let me purge them | 00:10 |
| t-nelson | sleight: Did you try apt-get installing it? | 00:11 |
| t-nelson | s/it/dwm/ | 00:11 |
| sleight | everything i've read says that's the wrong thing | 00:11 |
| t-nelson | DWM is available on my 14.04 server install | 00:11 |
| sleight | alternatively, i'll be happy with just being able to run xterm or st | 00:12 |
| Gui1111 | Ubuntu is saying I have to have a CD, why can't i do it on my external HDD? | 00:12 |
| sleight | i know | 00:12 |
| Gui1111 | (I don't have a CD/DVD nor can I find my CD drive anyway. | 00:12 |
| wileee | Gui1111, context? | 00:12 |
| t-nelson | sleight: So you've read stuff that says what not to do, yet doesn't tell you the right way? | 00:12 |
| Gui1111 | Mounted the ISO, want to install Ubuntu, unable to do it without a CD. @Wileee | 00:12 |
| wileee | Gui1111, why and where mounting? | 00:13 |
| Gui1111 | Right click ISO >Mount [windows 8]. Rub wubi.exe. | 00:13 |
| wileee | !wubi | Gui1111 | 00:13 |
| ubottu | Gui1111: Wubi was a way to install Ubuntu from within Windows, but it is no longer supported in recent versions of Ubuntu and was never well maintained even for Ubuntu 12.04. Do not use Wubi. See !install for other options for installing Ubuntu. | 00:13 |
| Gui1111 | !install | 00:13 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 00:13 |
| Gui1111 | Thanks :) | 00:13 |
| wileee | Gui1111, Not supported and a bad idea from the start. | 00:14 |
| k1l | Gui1111: boot the usb as you boot a cd. then install from the usb | 00:14 |
| wileee | wubi that is | 00:14 |
| ObrienDave | NO NOT WUBI | 00:14 |
| Gui1111 | How do I get the files onto the HDD? | 00:14 |
| Gui1111 | just copy the ISO contents over? | 00:14 |
| wileee | Gui1111, end goal? | 00:15 |
| ObrienDave | burn ISO to DVD or USB stick, reboot, install | 00:15 |

| UbuntuNewb | Hello everybody. I got ssmtp working earlier on my server, but how do I tell ubuntu to use that as my default mail server? I also have exim installed, and the system appears to be using that. | 00:15 |
| Gui1111 | Can I burn it to a 1tb External HDD? | 00:15 |
| kadiro | !bios | 00:15 |
| Gui1111 | Using something like ISOTOUSB? | 00:15 |
| UbuntuNewb | Trying to set my server up so that all outgoing mail is automatically relayed through google apps | 00:15 |
| wileee | Gui1111, not a safe or always working method. | 00:16 |
| Gui1111 | How would I do it? | 00:16 |
| ObrienDave | burn ISO to DVD or USB stick, reboot, install | 00:17 |
| wileee | Gui1111, You could use a virtual machine with just the iso | 00:17 |
| wileee | for install | 00:17 |
| maybejojo333 | xterm -u8 | 00:18 |
| Gui1111 | ObrienDave: What do I use to Burn the ISO to USB? | 00:18 |
| ObrienDave | unetbootin, yumi, dd. your choice | 00:18 |
| sleight | what do you know, apt-get install just worked | 00:19 |
| wileee | Gui1111, Besides those, here is a website with multiple usb loaders running in windows, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ | 00:19 |
| ObrienDave | *keeps forgetting that one* | 00:20 |
| wileee | multisystems in linux here | 00:20 |
| Gui1111 | Thanks for the help :) | 00:20 |
| Gui1111 | Wil ltry now. | 00:20 |
| wileee | hope they know of err UEFI | 00:21 |
| ObrienDave | they'll be baaaaaaack ;OP | 00:21 |
| op | ObrienDave, yes Sir ?! :p | 00:22 |
| wileee | time to wager, I got 5 on just can't boot ;) | 00:22 |
| UbuntuNewb | hmm it looks like ssmtp isn't working, either. Okay, is there somebody that can help me get my mail server to successfully relay all mail through google apps please? Been working on it forever and have gotten nowhere. | 00:22 |
| surgy | so does unetbootin make a persistant installation onto the usb drive? and now ubuntu thinks the usb drive is an hdd? | 00:23 |
| ObrienDave | geez louise, a nick of op??? the gods weep ;P | 00:23 |
| op | ObrienDave, Son! Do you want the OP power? | 00:24 |
| t-nelson | UbuntuNewb: You've read https://support.google.com/a/answer/2956491?hl=en ? | 00:24 |
| wileee | surgy, unetbootin can, it creates a file for saving, computer sees it as a media device, booted technically a HD sorta. | 00:24 |
| UbuntuNewb | t-nelson: Yes, that's related to setting google apps up to allow relaying. I am trying to set my local mail server up to relay to google apps | 00:25 |
| tats | t-nelson, Bashing-om ok so i did some ppa-purging. now " ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list | xargs cat" now reveals that all ppas are actually disabled (all lines commented out). | 00:25 |
| tats | then ran apt-get update; apt-get remove vlc* vlc.*; apt-get install vlc | 00:25 |
| wileee | surgy, You have to watch external boots, the may come up as sda | 00:25 |
| tats | still the same issue | 00:25 |
| surgy | wileee, can i use the drive as a live install disk and install to the computer using this drive? | 00:25 |
| wileee | they* | 00:25 |
| Thpmp | Anyone know how to connect to my vpn withough a gui? | 00:26 |
| wileee | surgy, Can you explain exactly what that means, and your end goal. | 00:26 |
| kadiro | for multiboot usb have fun in: http://www.rmprepusb.com/ | 00:26 |
| tats | t-nelson, Bashing-om ie.: "Depends: libgles1-mesa (>= 7.8.1) but it is not going to be installed or libgles1" | 00:27 |
| wileee | surgy, That drive, means nothing, be exact | 00:27 |
| t-nelson | tats: You need to figure out where all of those "ubuntu1~vivid1" alternatives are coming from. | 00:27 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Pastebin please the outputs of ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' So I see all in context . | 00:28 |
| surgy | wileee, i want a usb pen drive with a persistant os that can be used anywhere and also double as an installer. | 00:28 |
| surgy | wileee, can unetbootin do this? | 00:28 |
| wileee | surgy, A live on a usb with saved info via persistence and only makes the basic install, none of the work on there transfers. | 00:28 |
| UbuntuNewb | hmm, looks like I found a pretty good guide, except I don't have a inetd.conf ? | 00:28 |
| ikonia | inetd is dead | 00:29 |
| surgy | wileee, basicly | 00:29 |
| ikonia | so I suspect that is a very old guide | 00:29 |
| surgy | wileee, so i can play with the install and demo lubuntu to friends and if they like it i can install all from the same usb | 00:29 |
| wileee | surgy, A live ubuntu anything is for installing or just using. | 00:29 |
| wileee | surgy, Sure, however any extra beside the iso you loaded is not used on the install. | 00:30 |
| kadiro | the link i puted is very helpfull just puting isos ( one or many ) into pen drive and it work like a charm | 00:30 |
| ubuntu872 | I put the ubuntu ISO on an external hard drive, how do I make it bootable? | 00:30 |
| ubuntu872 | I used http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ | 00:30 |
| wileee | ubuntu872, Not a god idea really. | 00:31 |
| wileee | ubuntu872, THe best tool you can have is a dvd, or usb loaded. | 00:31 |
| ubuntu872 | USB loaded? | 00:32 |
| wileee | ubuntu872, Really, the iso installed by DD or an app. | 00:32 |
| ObrienDave | burn ISO to DVD or USB stick, reboot, install | 00:32 |
| UbuntuNewb | ikonia- It's looked for by exim4 | 00:32 |
| ikonia | what ? | 00:32 |
| ubuntu872 | So using external HDD is bad idea? | 00:32 |
| wileee | ubuntu872, Yes for a number of reasons, first being you need a fat32 partition, and you could mess up and wipe the HD. | 00:33 |
| UbuntuNewb | ikonia: The inetd.conf error is coming from exim-config using dpkg-reconfigure | 00:33 |
| ubuntu872 | It's an external HDD i don't care about. | 00:33 |
| wileee | runs slow, may not boot | 00:34 |
| wileee | if you value your time and ours do it correctly | 00:34 |
| ikonia | UbuntuNewb: that seems unlikley that exim would depend on inetd.conf, more so when it doesn't depend on the inet package | 00:34 |
| * ObrienDave has never gotten an external USB drive to work that way | 00:34 | |
| tats | Bashing-om, t-nelson : http://pastebin.com/wPPauSb5 | 00:34 |
| UbuntuNewb | ikonia: If that is the case, than why is the very first error I get when i run dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config is that it can't find /etc/inted.conf ? | 00:35 |
| ikonia | UbuntuNewb: no idea, the exim that ships with ubuntu should not depend on inetd | 00:35 |
| UbuntuNewb | What version comes 'shipped' with ubuntu? | 00:35 |
| UbuntuNewb | I had to apt-get install exim | 00:35 |
| ikonia | so you swapped out postfix for exim ? | 00:36 |
| UbuntuNewb | ikonia: Neither came installed, I had to install postfix first and it didn't work, so I uninstalled it and installed exim | 00:36 |
| UbuntuNewb | and that doesn't appear to work, either,. | 00:36 |
| ikonia | UbuntuNewb: what version of ubuntu did you install ? | 00:36 |
| UbuntuNewb | 14.04 | 00:36 |
| UbuntuNewb | server | 00:37 |
| ikonia | that comes with postfix | 00:37 |
| UbuntuNewb | Really? Cause I had to apt-get install it | 00:37 |
| Bashing-om | tats: look'm at your http://pastebin.com/wPPauSb5 . | 00:37 |
| ikonia | ahhh it's not installed by default, it's just the default choice | 00:37 |
| ikonia | just checked the docs | 00:37 |
| UbuntuNewb | yeah, all I am trying to do, is setup send-only relaying on my mail server to google docs | 00:38 |
| UbuntuNewb | google apps* | 00:38 |
| ikonia | so any MTA will do tht | 00:38 |
| UbuntuNewb | and can't find any help on doing it. | 00:38 |
| UbuntuNewb | The one that I found that was specifically for google apps, apparently is outdated, because it uses exim4, and the ubuntu version for some reason is looking for inetd. | 00:38 |
| ikonia | UbuntuNewb: is it warning or an error ? | 00:39 |
| ikonia | the inetd errror | 00:39 |
| UbuntuNewb | warning | 00:39 |
| UbuntuNewb | during exim4-config | 00:39 |
| ikonia | ok, ignore it | 00:39 |
| UbuntuNewb | error, sorry | 00:39 |
| ikonia | must be a legacy | 00:39 |
| UbuntuNewb | it shuts down the configuration | 00:39 |
| ikonia | really??? | 00:39 |
| UbuntuNewb | yeah | 00:39 |
| ikonia | that seems very odd, inetd has been gone for a long long time | 00:39 |
| UbuntuNewb | That's what I thought, too, but apparently the apt version still requires it | 00:40 |
| UbuntuNewb | Or is looking for the config file for it | 00:40 |
| ikonia | UbuntuNewb: hang on a second | 00:40 |
| UbuntuNewb | It's doing it when I select 'send-mail remotely; no local mail'; | 00:40 |
| daftykins | UbuntuNewb: relays are a bad idea, you'll get shutdown for spam potential very quickly :) | 00:41 |
| ikonia | UbuntuNewb: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/exim4 there is no info in there to suggest any depend on inetd | 00:41 |
| UbuntuNewb | daftykins: We use it exclusively at work, have for over four years. As long as your records are in your dns for google, it doesn't flag it as spam. | 00:41 |
| daftykins | why do it at all? | 00:42 |
| UbuntuNewb | hmm, it didnt look for it that time. | 00:42 |
| ikonia | UbuntuNewb: you can make it go away with the inet-superserver package | 00:42 |
| daftykins | if google is your MX records then what do you need a mail server for o0 | 00:42 |
| UbuntuNewb | daftykins: because all of my mail is done on google apps, and I need to be able to send mail from my server? | 00:43 |
| Bashing-om | surgy: Multo-boot usb see : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2259682&highlight=usb ; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1958073&highlight=usb . | 00:43 |
| daftykins | why run a server at all o0 | 00:43 |
| UbuntuNewb | because mail needs to be able to be sent from the server? | 00:43 |
| UbuntuNewb | Without setting up a custom configuration for each website/service that needs to send mail? | 00:43 |
| daftykins | hmm web host huh | 00:44 |
| UbuntuNewb | Not really, but there are websites on the server. | 00:44 |
| UbuntuNewb | As well as potentially other things that may need to send mail. | 00:45 |
| ObrienDave | mail spam??? O.o | 00:46 |
| UbuntuNewb | Point being, the server needs to be able to send mail out of it, through google apps, where my mail is setup through. I am trying to configure the local mail-server to send through google apps, and it's not working. | 00:46 |
| ikonia | UbuntuNewb: you just want an MTA locked down to localhost with a smarthost/relayhost configured to google | 00:47 |
| UbuntuNewb | ikonia: yes, that is exactly what I want, and I can't find any documentation that allows me to do that. | 00:47 |
| Bashing-om | tats: so far so good, let's check the package management system, pastebin ' sudo apt-get -f install ; sudo dpkg -C ' and then we see about VLC . | 00:47 |
| UbuntuNewb | The one I found for exim relied on inetd.conf apparently, although after uninstalling and reinstalling exim, it doesn't appear to be looking for it | 00:47 |
| stubblefield | any recommendations on program to make screen capture videos in ubuntu ? | 00:47 |
| ikonia | UbuntuNewb: ok- so inetd is just for spawning exim, however the current version runs as a daemon, so it won't cause you a problem | 00:48 |
| UbuntuNewb | ikonia: - I figured, but when I first configured it, it crashed the configuration cause it was looking for it. I uninstalled and reinstalled exim and now it appears to have configured correctly, I *think* | 00:49 |
| tats | Bashing-om, http://pastebin.com/GwcZGMmq | 00:52 |

| UbuntuNewb | grr this is annoying me.. doing everything these damn guides says and still it won't work | 00:57 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Yuk; You need to follow the pacjage manager's advise " they need to be reinstalled: " But -> "Package created with checkinstall 1.6.2" puts it out of my experience range . | 00:58 |
| kl0rth0 | help...... | 01:01 |

| Bashing-om | tats: Yokes. that one scares me, and I am afraid of nothing .. If ya do ' apt-cache depends libgles1-mesa ; apt-cache rdepends libgles1-mesa ' you will get an idea why . We can try to install and see what results : ' sudo apt-get install libgles1-mesa ' . | 01:34 |
| batcommander | daftykins, it's inside the .bak i created | 01:34 |
| daftykins | batcommander: yes so now "ls -al" that path and check the files in there for ownership =| | 01:35 |
| userme | anyone know why my inux when first got was fast now slow as s@@@ | 01:36 |
| batcommander | daftykins, yeah, i did that. one of them is named bin | 01:36 |
| daftykins | a bin in your home folder o0 | 01:37 |
| wileee | !details | userme, | 01:37 |
| ubottu | userme,: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 01:37 |
| daftykins | batcommander: ok well this approach is going nowhere fast. did you recreate /home/username and try logging in again? | 01:37 |
| userme | its going very slow | 01:37 |
| tats | Bashing-om, http://pastebin.com/pF8ZEvBW | 01:38 |
| userme | seems like lagging i opened a page and still trying | 01:38 |
| batcommander | daftykins, yeah, it's because I modified my .bashrc to run a todo_comletion from there...running todo.sh on the command line led me to put that there | 01:39 |
| daftykins | i have no idea what you're on about right now :) | 01:39 |
| batcommander | daftykins, i don't know what you mean by "recreate home directory" | 01:40 |
| daftykins | oh the home bin, yeah moved on. | 01:40 |
| daftykins | well does /home/username exist or not now? since you moved /home/username to /home/username.bak as per instructions | 01:40 |
| batcommander | daftykins, yes, that explains why i have a bin in ~. no, usrname.bak does not exist; i mv'd it back to usrname. | 01:42 |
| daftykins | well why did you do that o0 | 01:42 |
| batcommander | daftykins, so we'd be back at square one. i realized that you and t-nelson didn't coordinate and i followed some of both instructions. moving along... | 01:43 |
| daftykins | so nothing else in /home/username/ is owned by root? | 01:43 |
| daftykins | you should probably share what you do in future ;) | 01:44 |
| userme | why my linux xubuntu lagging badly | 01:44 |
| userme | never was like this before | 01:45 |
| === ThomasB is now known as Jcink | ||
| daftykins | define lag. | 01:45 |
| userme | slow | 01:45 |
| daftykins | at what? | 01:45 |
| === Jcink is now known as ThomasB | ||
| daftykins | doing the taxes? training the swimteam? | 01:45 |
| userme | very slow. i try to open a tab on firefox and takes fe seconds and then webpage takes ages | 01:46 |
| daftykins | userme: test the guest session | 01:46 |
| whoever | hi all, is there a rull of thoumb for compose key on how to generating chars with it, ie does it 'uy | 01:46 |
| batcommander | daftykins, nothing i can see...i can't seem to page through the results but none i see are owned by root | 01:46 |
| daftykins | batcommander: "ls -al /path/username | less" | 01:46 |
| whoever | it work for askii chars ie shapes or just letters with accent marks | 01:47 |
| userme | sorry daft what matete? | 01:47 |
| userme | mate | 01:47 |
| daftykins | log into the *guest* session to test | 01:47 |
| userme | got ya | 01:47 |
| batcommander | ok it says root owns .. and bin | 01:48 |
| daftykins | but nothing else? | 01:48 |
| batcommander | daftykins, nothing else | 01:49 |
| whoever | http://fsymbols.com/keyboard/linux/compose/ ie is there a corrilation from the ASCII to copose key code | 01:50 |
| daftykins | mmmk, well since the guest session didn't work i don't think this is going to be of any help, but "mv ~/.config ~/.configold" then "sudo service lightdm restart" and try logging in again at TTY7 | 01:50 |
| batcommander | daftykins, ok...don't know how to "log in again at TTY7" means yet, proceeding with the rest | 01:51 |
| daftykins | press Alt+F7 | 01:51 |
| syntroPi | is there any tv watching program which supports timeshifting except the broken vlc? | 01:54 |
| ObrienDave | vlc broken? the gods weep | 01:55 |
| batcommander | daftykins, alt+f7 didn't work... | 01:55 |
| daftykins | batcommander: it should get you back to the login screen. | 01:55 |
| daftykins | it may even have auto switched from restarting lightdm | 01:55 |
| al2o3-cr | syntroPi: mpv/mplayer2? | 01:56 |
| batcommander | daftykins, i was brought back to GUI login screen before alt+f7...and hitting those two keys didn't get a cli login | 01:56 |
| syntroPi | al2o3-cr, are those two supporting timeshifting (eg. pause in livetv)? | 01:57 |
| daftykins | batcommander: they're not meant to, try logging in now. | 01:57 |
| al2o3-cr | syntroPi: Yes. | 01:57 |
| batcommander | same as before...it drops the login and reverts to gui login | 01:57 |
| t-nelson | syntroPi: HAve you tried searching? There are a ton of options for live tv on linux. | 01:58 |
| al2o3-cr | syntroPi: Only if you dvb receiver supports such feature though. | 01:58 |
| al2o3-cr | *your | 01:58 |
| Idle845818 | t-nelson, when you say live tv you mean pick up signal from a pc running linux? | 01:58 |
| Idle845818 | like digital signal | 01:59 |
| t-nelson | Idle845818: With an appropriate tuner, yes. | 01:59 |
| ObrienDave | like DVR software? | 01:59 |
| t-nelson | Or cable box, satellite | 01:59 |
| Idle845818 | so does the tuner connect to a port on the pc? | 01:59 |
| ObrienDave | yes | 01:59 |
| t-nelson | Why are two people responding who aren't the guy with the question? :) | 02:00 |
| daftykins | batcommander: mmm, well i think it's reinstall time. | 02:00 |
| daftykins | batcommander: i'm sure you could bury through logs and so on and mess around, maybe reinstall unity - something like that, but yeah. shortest approach. | 02:00 |
| syntroPi | al2o3-cr, hmm what you mean by that? its an usb stick which can tune into channels, its cant store anything | 02:00 |
| * ObrienDave bows out of t-nelson's way ;P | 02:01 | |
| batcommander | daftykins, thanks for the help | 02:01 |
| daftykins | np! | 02:01 |
| t-nelson | syntroPi: The best solutions use a backend for all of the tuner related stuff, then stream to a client | 02:01 |
| t-nelson | Checkout something like tvheadend. | 02:01 |
| al2o3-cr | syntroPi: I mean, you can only pause live TV, if the dvb reciever supports pausing live TV | 02:01 |
| t-nelson | al2o3-cr: That's not the tuners job | 02:02 |
| syntroPi | al2o3-cr, what does mean supporting that? | 02:02 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Sorry, minor emergency intervened - Lawn mower is now history - . Lemme get caught up and I be back with you . | 02:03 |
| Bashing-om | !info libglapi-mesa | 02:03 |

| al2o3-cr | t-nelson: who's job is it? | 02:03 |
| t-nelson | al2o3-cr: Software | 02:03 |
| t-nelson | Or the driver if the vendor is completely Chinese. | 02:04 |
| al2o3-cr | t-nelson: on what the dvb or mplayer? | 02:04 |
| syntroPi | al2o3-cr, what i mean by timeshifting is tune into a channel, watch a bit, then press pause but have it cached to /tmp in background, when i resume (deactivate pause) it will play from cache while still recording to that chached content in background | 02:04 |
| ObrienDave | *sighs* DVR software | 02:04 |
| al2o3-cr | exactly | 02:05 |
| t-nelson | syntroPi: 20:01:41 < t-nelson> Checkout something like tvheadend. | 02:05 |
| syntroPi | al2o3-cr, i dont understand what that has to do with the tuner | 02:05 |
| ObrienDave | NOTHING | 02:05 |
| t-nelson | syntroPi: al2o3-cr doesn't know what they're on about | 02:05 |
| t-nelson | syntroPi: Go get tvheadend | 02:06 |
| ObrienDave | the SOFTWARE does the caching | 02:06 |
| * t-nelson caches ObrienDave | 02:06 | |
| al2o3-cr | t-nelson: Ok, whatever | 02:06 |
| ObrienDave | ;P | 02:06 |

| syntroPi | t-nelson, i think i tried tvheadend long time ago and afaik zapping was kinda unconvenient | 02:08 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Let's see if we can find out why the elevated "libglapi-mesa 10.5.9-2ubuntu1~vivid1" package is installed. What returns ' apt-cache policy libglapi-mesa ' ? | 02:09 |
| t-nelson | syntroPi: Luckily it's been heavily developed in that long time. | 02:09 |
| t-nelson | Bashing-om: Probably vivid-updates being enabled? | 02:10 |
| Bashing-om | t-nelson: Maybe .. but I do suspect we have PPA leftovers ?? | 02:10 |

| t-nelson | Bashing-om: There's certainly some source still around. | 02:12 |
| abb0 | how does ubuntu dertimine which version is going to be the LTS. | 02:14 |
| abb0 | jc | 02:14 |
| t-nelson | abb0: Every other .04 release | 02:15 |
| abb0 | b/c ive seen that theres a 14.04 LTS and 14.10 and 15 even. lol made me wonder | 02:15 |
| abb0 | oooooooooo | 02:15 |
| daftykins | abb0: it's the .04 release every 2 years | 02:15 |
| abb0 | ok the .04s are the ones | 02:15 |
| daftykins | no, not every | 02:15 |
| daftykins | 15.04 is not | 02:15 |
| t-nelson | abb0: No 15.04 isn't one | 02:15 |
| abb0 | oooo ok | 02:15 |
| t-nelson | 16.04 will be | 02:15 |
| daftykins | 10.04... 12.04... 14.04... 16.04... | 02:15 |
| abb0 | every 2 yrs | 02:15 |
| abb0 | ok | 02:15 |
| abb0 | but makes me wonder | 02:16 |
| abb0 | why even make the other versions | 02:16 |
| abb0 | 14,10 and 15.04 | 02:16 |
| t-nelson | abb0: Real-world testing | 02:16 |
| abb0 | just trial and error for 16.04? lol | 02:16 |
| abb0 | ahhh yeah thats what i thought | 02:16 |
| abb0 | makes sense | 02:16 |
| t-nelson | No half-sane developer would be comfortable doing blind releases of an OS every two years. | 02:17 |
| abb0 | yeah | 02:17 |
| === IdleOne is now known as Guest41897 | ||
| syntroPi | ooh my dvb is a real mess | 02:21 |
| abb0 | sooooooo what can i do if i cant view my secondary hdd, like the computer sees it bc its on my unity launcher but i cant mount it | 02:21 |
| abb0 | or access it | 02:21 |
| daftykins | syntroPi: i think this topic would make a lot more sense over in tvheadend's channel or elsewhere. | 02:21 |
| abb0 | now ihavent tried since comin from windows | 02:21 |
| daftykins | abb0: still the d-bus error? | 02:21 |
| userme | still slow | 02:23 |
| daftykins | userme: ok, what graphics hardware? | 02:23 |
| userme | not gd 1 gig ram was on vista b4 | 02:23 |
| userme | soz noy vista xp | 02:24 |
| daftykins | no, what is the graphics card? | 02:24 |
| daftykins | if you have 1GB RAM then no wonder things aren't great. | 02:24 |
| userme | was on xp and was ok and i had ubuntu and got xbuntu as used lot lower requiremnets | 02:25 |
| Bashing-om | tats: t-nelson Sourcelist looks OK. I -"think"- this is safe : ' sudo apt-get clean ; sudo apt-get autoclean ; sudo apt-get autoremove ' to get rid of the old packages in the cache. The biggy: ' sudo apt-get purge libglapi-mesa ; sudo apt-get install libglapi-mesa ' . See if now 10.5.2-0ubuntu1 will install . | 02:25 |
| syntroPi | (gnome) mplayer completely freezes on trying to zap i had to kill -KILL it | 02:25 |
| Fudge | does nautilus still have the hover feature for playing songs | 02:25 |
| daftykins | userme: can you answer the question then? if you don't know what card you have, run "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "lspci | pastebinit" in the terminal | 02:25 |
| userme | xbuntu was ok great on here and its only recently | 02:26 |
| userme | its sis | 02:26 |

| userme | k | 02:26 |
| daftykins | bazhang: blast from the past :) | 02:26 |
| bazhang | daftykins, thats going to be slow no matter the OS | 02:27 |
| daftykins | yeah i know. i'd like to see proof first though | 02:27 |
| userme | can it be virus | 02:28 |
| daftykins | no. | 02:28 |
| t-nelson | Did you piss off the NSA? | 02:28 |
| bazhang | userme , if its sis, its not well supported nor fast | 02:28 |
| t-nelson | No one else is owning a fresh Linux install. | 02:28 |
| daftykins | t-nelson: inappropriate. | 02:28 |
| bazhang | t-nelson, thats not helpful cut it out | 02:29 |
| userme | yeah its defo sis 671 card | 02:29 |
| daftykins | ok, i don't think you can do anything about that | 02:30 |
| daftykins | i wouldn't make my worst enemies run a system of that age | 02:30 |

| userme | yeah i know mate had a hell of time getting a driver for resolution | 02:33 |
| userme | thats why went xbuntu or got recommned lubuntu as there light over unbuntu | 02:34 |
| daftykins | userme: because times change. the kernel changes, the drivers change... | 02:35 |
| daftykins | (or get abandoned) | 02:35 |
| daftykins | yes light, but not for museum piece hardware | 02:35 |

| userme | or unlikely | 02:37 |
| daftykins | i already said no. | 02:37 |
| userme | did ya sorry didnt see it | 02:37 |

| bazhang | userme nothing is going to make a slow old system like that fast | 02:38 |

| userme | vesa the adriver | 02:39 |
| userme | ffs | 02:39 |
| surgy | hello | 02:39 |
| userme | is vesa a driver | 02:39 |
| surgy | in chrome does pepperflash offer better performance than flashplugin ? | 02:39 |
| daftykins | yep | 02:39 |
| daftykins | userme: "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" and share the link | 02:39 |
| daftykins | surgy: don't think flash it usable with it anymore, pepper is the only choice | 02:40 |
| userme | i know can make a old dog fast but from install of xbuntu to now its got slower | 02:40 |
| khss | da pottaaaa | 02:40 |
| surgy | daftykins, oh then it must install by default? | 02:40 |

| abb0 | daftykins: yes i have a d-bus error | 02:49 |
| abb0 | sorry didnt see when you said something earlier i was busy | 02:49 |
| abb0 | been tryin to search how ubuntu is | 02:49 |
| daftykins | search how it is? | 02:49 |
| abb0 | whoops | 02:49 |
| abb0 | sent that accident | 02:50 |
| abb0 | accidentally | 02:50 |
| abb0 | ignore the been tryin to search line | 02:50 |
| abb0 | i get a d-bus error, all i can think of is it was formatted on a windows pc | 02:50 |
| daftykins | so show us what it thinks your disk is by installing 'pastebinit' then running "sudo parted -l | pastebinit" | 02:50 |
| abb0 | perhaps linux cant read that or w/e | 02:50 |
| daftykins | no that's not something that would cause errors. | 02:50 |
| syntroPi | t-nelson: from which source/repo would you recomment installing tvheadend on vivid x64? | 02:51 |
| abb0 | k ill install that and brb im still novice so might take a sec | 02:51 |
| syntroPi | *recommend | 02:51 |
| Bashing-om | tats: As around and around we go. What returns ' apt-cache policy libgles2-mesa ' . | 02:51 |
| daftykins | syntroPi: take it to the tvheadend channel. their site has ubuntu packages. | 02:51 |
| syntroPi | daftykins, on freenode? there are two ppl idling there | 02:52 |

| abb0 | damn what is the shortcut to paste, i keep hitting control v | 02:53 |
| daftykins | where are you pasting? | 02:54 |
| abb0 | i was trying to paste that link | 02:54 |
| Bashing-om | tats: look'n at https://paste.ee/p/5wyZt . | 02:54 |
| daftykins | *where* are you pasting? what program? | 02:55 |
| abb0 | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12053067/ | 02:55 |
| abb0 | bro i just mean in general | 02:55 |
| abb0 | windows uses ctrl+v | 02:55 |
| daftykins | yeah that's the same paste as before | 02:55 |
| daftykins | don't say bro, this isn't the street. | 02:55 |
| abb0 | figured that linux has a version | 02:55 |
| daftykins | yeah and so does Linux | 02:55 |
| abb0 | ook | 02:55 |
| daftykins | but some *programs* use ctrl+shift+v | 02:55 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Yeah ! looks doable to me .. What about ' sudo apt-get install libgles2-mesa ' ? | 02:55 |
| abb0 | did you feel bro was disrespectful | 02:56 |
| abb0 | if so i apologize | 02:56 |
| syntroPi | daftykins, ooh thanks i didnt know that it was named like that | 02:56 |
| daftykins | no it's just street talk. | 02:56 |
| abb0 | what exactly is street talk | 02:56 |
| daftykins | syntroPi: ok well it was on the front page of their website, so - rub a few brain cells together next time ;) | 02:56 |
| wileee | also culturally linked | 02:56 |
| abb0 | your helping ppl ill leave you alone lol | 02:56 |

| abb0 | yes 8tb mybook duo lol | 02:58 |

| daftykins | abb0: eh, irrelevant - which do you want is the point | 02:58 |
| abb0 | correct | 02:58 |
| abb0 | i said the 1tb | 02:58 |

| arooni-mobile | hey everyone. i have a question. i have a lenovo t420 laptop that was running ubuntu 14.10 on a regular hard drive. today i installed a samsung 850 500GB ssd and installed ubuntu 14.10 on it. i was going to copy over /home from my old hard drive to the ssd; but i realize i realize /home on the old hard drive is encrypted. is there a way to decrypt this? when i login to ubuntu lts on the SSD i can't access the old hard | 03:00 |
| arooni-mobile | drive's /home. what to do? | 03:00 |
| abb0 | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12053101/ | 03:00 |
| cfhowlett | arooni-mobile, first things first: 14.10? END OF LIFE AND UNSUPPORTED! | 03:00 |
| daftykins | arooni-mobile: booting and copying would be easier. | 03:00 |
| syntroPi | daftykins, hmm its five in the morning here already too late for any coffee, maybe i should continue another day... seems like quite a complex setup | 03:01 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Where in the world does the elevated package come from . The PPAs have been removed from the equation ? show ' tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ' and lets make sure ! | 03:01 |
| daftykins | syntroPi: i don't care :) | 03:01 |
| daftykins | abb0: alright so lets see that error again. "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /mnt" - then show whether that spits out any errors. | 03:02 |
| arooni-mobile | daftykins, ok after i ocpy it all over | 03:02 |
| arooni-mobile | daftykins, what should i use to copy over? | 03:02 |
| wileee | arooni-mobile, Why a eol install | 03:03 |
| daftykins | arooni-mobile: cp... rsync... knock yourself out :) | 03:03 |
| daftykins | wileee: that's the old install, arooni-mobile is gonna install 14.04 on the new SSD | 03:03 |
| daftykins | :> | 03:03 |
| arooni-mobile | i'm sorry i meant to say i installed 14.04 on the SSD | 03:03 |
| wileee | cool | 03:03 |
| arooni-mobile | i got that wrong | 03:03 |
| arooni-mobile | but 14.04 lts is already running on the SSD | 03:03 |
| tats | Bashing-om, https://paste.ee/p/cXxJF | 03:04 |
| arooni-mobile | so once i finish copying over the /home directory ; what should i do with the existing stuff in /home | 03:05 |
| arooni-mobile | delete the drive and reformat it? | 03:05 |
| === cartucho is now known as Guest47825 | ||
| daftykins | depends what you want to use it for... | 03:05 |
| daftykins | does your system take two at once? | 03:05 |
| arooni-mobile | theres no way to disable the /home encryption without reformatting the partition? | 03:05 |
| arooni-mobile | daftykins, yes i can run both simultaneously | 03:06 |
| daftykins | so you could use it as a backup drive | 03:06 |
| daftykins | or mount it for media storage, whatever goes really | 03:06 |
| Bashing-om | tats: look'n at https://paste.ee/p/cXxJF . | 03:06 |
| arooni-mobile | so how do i get all the software i installed over to the new one? make a list of packages and then install that on the SSD? | 03:06 |
| tats | Bashing-om, there's nothing in the .list that is not commented out but there's a few in the other extensions files | 03:06 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Look'n, you for sure want this ione gone " deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gezakovacs/pdfocr/ubuntu quantal main " as that repo does not exist . Still looking it over . | 03:08 |
| daftykins | arooni-mobile: yeah but i think you should just install things as you need them, reduce the cruft. | 03:08 |
| cfhowlett | arooni-mobile, this is one method but daftykins has advised you well: http://www.upubuntu.com/2012/11/how-to-backuprestore-your-installed.html | 03:09 |
| arooni-mobile | before i willy nilly copy over the entire /home directory whats that program i can use to visualize where the majority of storage i've used ? | 03:10 |
| arooni-mobile | id like to delete any crap that i dont need to copy over to the new drive first | 03:10 |
| daftykins | arooni-mobile: you have a knack for turning a small task into a week long affair | 03:11 |
| Bashing-om | tats: ^^ and " deb [arch=amd64,i386] http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/ precise steam " you arte on vivid. Is steam not supported in vived ? | 03:11 |
| arooni-mobile | just want to get this right; not trying to be complicated | 03:11 |
| cfhowlett | !steam | 03:11 |
| ubottu | Valve have officially announced that they are developing Steam and are working with !ubuntu during their development, see http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/steamd-penguins/ for further details, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valve for install instructions, you can also join #ubuntu-steam for discussion. | 03:11 |

| === mike is now known as Guest59154 | ||
| arooni-mobile | so to understand correctly theres no way to undo the encryption on the /home directory; i just need to copy what i want over then reformat to one big ext4 backup drive | 03:13 |
| cfhowlett | ehhh, FIXING what you did wrong is how you learn (?) | 03:13 |
| daftykins | hehe, ok doing it wrong is step #1 to learning ;D | 03:14 |
| daftykins | arooni-mobile: might be a way to decrypt but that'll take forever, just get it done :) | 03:14 |
| cfhowlett | daftykins, agree2agree | 03:14 |
| tats | Bashing-om, wait, this seems to be linked somehow with gstreamer at qt5; there's a software i'm developing; i'm not the one doing the packaging though. it's the "mapmap" ppa. i disabled it but the package is still installed. if i do sudo apt-cache depends mapmap: https://paste.ee/p/BvpkR | 03:15 |
| tats | * i meant " with gstreamer *and* qt5" | 03:15 |
| tats | i will try uninstalling mapmap | 03:16 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Will look at that last . Not directly related but there is a limit on how many keys the system will sustain. What returns ' ls /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d | wc -l ' ? | 03:17 |
| tats | Bashing-om, 38 | 03:17 |
| daftykins | abb0: so uh... did you run it yet or not? | 03:20 |
| Bashing-om | tats: You are but 2 under the limit ... Keep that in mind or get rid of all you do not need . As to " Depends: libqt5core5a " I do not know how we are going to get around your developemnt in qt5. But yeah that do seem to be the bottle neck . Set up some kind of a container to work in ??? | 03:21 |
| tats | Bashing-om, I don't mind blowing up qt5 for now. | 03:22 |
| tats | Bashing-om, so apt-get remove libqt5core5a ? this will remove a lot of packages | 03:26 |

| Bashing-om | pondering* | 03:33 |
| B4r4t4 | I will try another room. Excuse me | 03:33 |
| tats | Bashing-om, here's a summary of where i'm at: https://paste.ee/p/zq9w2 | 03:35 |
| tats | Bashing-om, seems i cannot reinstall libglapi-mesa because "it cannot be downloaded". trying to remove it instead yields "qml-module-qtfeedback : Depends: libqt5feedback5 but it is not going to be installed" | 03:36 |
| Bashing-om | tats: There is a term for this condition -> dependency hell . No relation to the package manager it is apt -ly termed. Lemme look at the latest . | 03:38 |
| Bashing-om | tats: We can FORCE a package installation, But But no telling what else we will break . still pondering what to do, OH what to do . | 03:41 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Honestly, all I know to do is to save your development work, and purge 'mapmap' see then if we can get the dependencies straight . | 03:45 |
| tats | Bashing-om, i already done a apt-get remove mapmap | 03:45 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Status of the package menager now ' sudo apt-get -f install ; sudo dpkg -C ' ? See what we can address presently . | 03:47 |
| tats | Bashing-om, not much. "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded." | 03:50 |
| nicekiwi | is it safe to run apt-get auto-remove to remove old kernels? | 03:52 |
| nicekiwi | once again by /boot is full >_> | 03:53 |
| daftykins | yes | 03:53 |
| cfhowlett | generally yes nicekiwi | 03:53 |
| daftykins | or just manually remove all but the newest two | 03:53 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Let's see if we gat any help ' apt-get install libglapi-mesa --reinstall ' . | 03:53 |
| nicekiwi | 1.6GB of space freed up :D | 03:53 |
| cfhowlett | how many kernels did you have!? nicekiwi | 03:54 |
| tats | Bashing-om, yes it says "Reinstallation of libglapi-mesa is not possible, it cannot be downloaded." | 03:54 |
| nicekiwi | cfhowlett, uhh maybe 13 | 03:55 |
| Bashing-om | tats: It is there, wonder what we have done that the system is upset so about . think'n . | 03:55 |

| TravisTheNavi | Is it possible to run Unity3D on Ubuntu LTS? | 03:56 |
| TravisTheNavi | By the way, hello daftykins! You helped me the other day with my CS:GO audio problem. | 03:57 |
| daftykins | did it do anything? | 03:57 |
| tats | Bashing-om, if it cannot be downloaded, isn't it because it was part of a ppa that has been purged? | 03:57 |
| TravisTheNavi | It fixed the problem, though I have noticed a glitch occurring once or twice within the past 10 hours or so of playing, where the audio stops altogether. I just restart Steam and CS, and it is good to go. | 03:58 |
| daftykins | hmm | 03:59 |
| daftykins | well, there are always other games. | 03:59 |
| wafflejock | TravisTheNavi: perhaps it's a sign to not play for 10hrs straight :) I've heard counterstrike works pretty well on linux never got into it though, sounds like a bug in the game though rather than a system problem given restarting the game itself fixes the problem | 04:00 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Quite possible .. as it is an "optional" package in the main repo. But do we not have to have it to install VLC ? | 04:01 |
| daftykins | plus some of us were playing CS over 15 years ago *cough* | 04:01 |

| idle84818 | if a pc has windows7 installed + ubuntu and another os is going to be installed will it automatically add to grub(assuming grub is current bootloader)? | 04:31 |
| cfhowlett | TravisTheNavi, LOL. sorry, m8. we're not about to help you pirate. | 04:31 |
| cfhowlett | idle84818, another OS will rewrite it's own bootloader. better perhaps to NOT install a new boot loader. update grub after you install. | 04:31 |
| nicekiwi | wileee, could be innocent. could also say the same of Ubuntu including MP3 codecs without paying for them.. cant prove it.. but I can look irksome | 04:32 |
| idle84818 | so install new OS, completly leave current bootloader and just use update-grub on the partition in which main linux os is instaleld? | 04:32 |
| wileee | TravisTheNavi, All in one meaning 32 64 bit or with a key, I think is the point here. | 04:32 |
| idle84818 | installed*, and that will place the option to boot the new os in grub? | 04:32 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Try and install ' sudo apt-get install libgles2-mesa ' . let's see where we go from here . | 04:32 |
| TravisTheNavi | With a key. | 04:33 |
| wileee | nicekiwi, cept the mp3 developer does not care, you are trolling. | 04:33 |
| cfhowlett | idle84818, correct | 04:33 |
| TravisTheNavi | I believe. I don't know. Honestly, I pirated the .iso. I won't lie. | 04:33 |
| idle84818 | thanks for that :) | 04:33 |
| wileee | TravisTheNavi, If a legit key it's legeal one can build one, if not I would not use it is all. | 04:33 |

| TravisTheNavi | If the key is legit? | 04:34 |

| cfhowlett | TravisTheNavi, it's not. | 04:34 |

| cfhowlett | TravisTheNavi, again: this is NOT an ubuntu issue. go to microsoft for your MS needs. you're completely off-topic here. and we don't support piracty | 04:36 |
| cfhowlett | *piracy* | 04:36 |
| Bashing-om | tats: Well that jogs my memory, back where we were a couple of hours aga, the versions of libglapi-mesa and libgles2-mesa must match and they presently do not. The correct version for vivid is " 10.5.2-0ubuntu1 (vivid) " | 04:38 |
| Bashing-om | tats: so the question is how do we get rid of libglapi-mesa 10.5.9-2ubuntu1~ . ' apt-cache policy libglapi-mesa ' . See if we can find the source . | 04:39 |

| SolarNRG | sorry dudes but firefox sux donkey ballz how do i get iceweasel on this thing? | 05:41 |
| SolarNRG | i tried apt-get remove firefox then apt-get install iceweasel but that didnt work | 05:41 |
| Redria | Is this the correct channel to be in if one needs help with | 05:41 |
| Redria | MySQL and Ubuntu? | 05:41 |
| SolarNRG | firefox comes as standard with ubuntu | 05:41 |
| wileee | SolarNRG, worldwide family channel, can we curb the colorful descriptions | 05:41 |
| SolarNRG | sorry | 05:42 |
| SolarNRG | but it's goes chuggy on youtube and it wont let u copy paste after u close it down and its got known security vulnerabilities | 05:42 |
| SolarNRG | so i want it off my system and i want iceweasel instead how do i do that? | 05:42 |
| somsip | Redria: just ask the question. If it's too specialised, #mysql may be better. depends. | 05:42 |
| wileee | SolarisBoy, relax, we see your needs, a customer free volunteer will be with you soon. | 05:43 |
| Redria | somsip: The just of it is that I had a Minecraft server dumped in my lap. The terminal said updates were available, so I got them, installed them, but MySQL now fails to start. I think the installed version is 5.0 but the update is 5.5. I am unsure how to repair it / upgrade it without blowing everything up =D | 05:43 |
| somsip | Redria: what version of ubuntu, and what version of mysql (run mysql -V) | 05:44 |
| Redria | somsip: one moment let me login. | 05:45 |
| Radix|15 | Hia | 05:46 |
| Redria | somsip: mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.44, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.3 | 05:47 |
| somsip | Redria: so that's 5.5 and that ships with ubuntu 14.04 so it looks like you're running a current version | 05:47 |
| somsip | Redria: there was a security update for mysql a couple of weeks ago, so maybe it's just offering that | 05:47 |
| Redria | somsip: Is there a command to get it's running status or if it is currently running? | 05:47 |
| somsip | Redria: sudo service mysql status | 05:48 |
| Redria | somsip: mysql stop/waiting | 05:49 |
| somsip | Redria: so 'sudo service mysql start' should get it going, or will give errors in /var/log/mysql/error.log | 05:49 |
| Redria | somsip: start: Job failed to start | 05:50 |
| somsip | Redria: so check the error log referred to above | 05:50 |
| Redria | somsip: Just navigate to the directory and then pull the log? | 05:50 |
| somsip | Redria: yeah, or 'tail -f /var/log/mysql/error.log' and do the service...start thing in a different terminal. Or use less or edit it...whatever | 05:51 |
| Redria | somsip: I am truly clueless, So cd \var\log | 05:53 |
| Redria | somsip: I am truly clueless, So cd \var\log\mysql\ | 05:53 |
| Redria | ? | 05:53 |
| somsip | Redria: ok, cd /var/log/mysql. 'less error.log' and look for somethig obvious in the last few lines. If short, paste here. If long use.... | 05:54 |
| somsip | !paste | Redria | 05:54 |

| npranav | there is a uImage file which contains the kernel which boots the system. how do i modify a file inside this uImage file? | 05:54 |
| somsip | npranav: something like this? http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/113827/how-to-extract-files-from-uimage | 05:55 |
| Redria | somsip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12053675/ | 05:55 |
| somsip | Redria: InnoDB: Error: space header page consists of zero bytes in data file ./ibdata1 | 05:56 |
| somsip | Redria: it gets messy now. Have a look in /etc/mysql/my.cnf and check for where datadir points to. Usually /var/lib/mysql | 05:57 |
| Redria | somsip: Am I to run the command /ibdata1 | 05:57 |
| Redria | ? | 05:57 |
| somsip | Redria: no, it's a data file that looks like it's missing, corrupt or empty | 05:57 |
| Redria | somsip: so 'less my.cnf' ? | 05:59 |
| somsip | Redria: yes, looking for 'datadir = /var/lib/mysql' | 05:59 |
| npranav | somsip: i found it, but did not understand.. thanks time for understanding now.. :) | 05:59 |
| WardL | Hello. I am having problems with my Broadcom wifi (What a surprise...). I have tried various tutorials, accepted answers on askubuntu, ... - Nothing helps. I am now reading through http://askubuntu.com/questions/459654/drivers-for-broadcom-bcm43142-on-ubuntu-14-04-trusty-tahr . | 05:59 |
| WardL | I have problems understanding the accpeted answer, especially the 2nd step. | 06:00 |
| WardL | It says that he "cross checked the files there with my hard disk installation's version of the same folder. " | 06:00 |
| Redria | somsip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12053693/ I see it up there. | 06:00 |
| WardL | Does he mean he checked the files on his hard drive against the files on a live cd? | 06:00 |
| WardL | If yes: is what he does safe, i.e. removing files that are not present on the live cd? | 06:01 |
| somsip | Redria: okay, so you now need to do some data recovery so this is getting more mysql than ubuntu. If you search for "InnoDB: Error: space header page consists of zero bytes in data file./ibdata1" you'll get some pointers like http://is.gd/KJIs1J that may help, but I can't walk you through this any further. So #mysql may be able to help more | 06:01 |
| Redria | somsip: Thank you very very much for the help =D | 06:02 |
| somsip | Redria: no problem. That one offers a solution, but best to read around the other search results to get an idea of what may be involved. Good luck | 06:02 |

| Hiigaran | somsip: Redria here, name was taken and had to change. MySQL guys aren't active :( | 06:22 |
| TravisTheNavi | I need a usb writing tool. Any suggestions? | 06:23 |
| wafflejock | TravisTheNavi: dd :) | 06:23 |
| somsip | Hiigaran: well, it's pretty much like in that link I sent you. You may be able to recover the tables, you may not. And the steps to try that are explained in the link/ | 06:23 |
| wafflejock | TravisTheNavi: it's command line but works well for making a bootable USB or otherwise transferring blocks of data from one place to another | 06:24 |
| TravisTheNavi | I've used dd before, but I forgot how. Last time I had someone walk me through it | 06:24 |
| TravisTheNavi | I need to make a bootable USB | 06:24 |
| TJ- | atralheaven_: You'd have to restrict the user from running any process that connects to a remote TCP port 25 (SMTP) or 587 (ESMTPS) | 06:24 |
| wafflejock | TravisTheNavi: basics are it has if=input.iso of=/dev/sdX where X is your particular partition you want to move it to then it has bs=4M to tell it to use 4M cache before writing out to disk | 06:25 |
| TravisTheNavi | so "dd if=input.iso of=/dev/sd1 bs=4M"? | 06:26 |
| wafflejock | TravisTheNavi: can use lsblk to see your partitions | 06:26 |
| TJ- | TravisTheNavi: typically I'd do "sudo dd if=/path/to/image.iso of=/dev/sdZ bs=100M oflag=direct,dsync iflag=fullblock conv=fdatasync,fsync" | 06:26 |
| Hiigaran | somsip: You had sent me a link? I did not see it, would you mind resending? | 06:26 |
| wafflejock | TravisTheNavi: typically sda or sdb or something not sure about sd1 | 06:26 |
| TravisTheNavi | yeah sda my bad lol | 06:26 |
| TravisTheNavi | TJ-, Thanks, I'll try that | 06:26 |
| wafflejock | TravisTheNavi: yeah be absolutely sure you have the right drive though | 06:26 |
| wafflejock | or you're gonna have a bad time | 06:27 |
| somsip | Hiigaran: http://webdevelopmentscripts.com/23-solved-innodb-error-space-header-page-consists-of-zero-bytes-xampp | 06:27 |
| TravisTheNavi | I have a live usb of Ubuntu on hand anyway | 06:27 |
| TravisTheNavi | Just in case things go sour, I can reinstall. | 06:27 |
| TJ- | TravisTheNavi: all those extra flags make sure the input and output stay in sync (data doesn't just pile up in memory cache) and is flushed to the device correctly | 06:27 |
| wafflejock | atralheaven_: I'm not familiar with the details on this but can maybe configure iptables to only allow outgoing to your mail server on SMTP and restrict your mail server so it doesn't allow any outbound anonymous SMTP (probably already configured) | 06:28 |
| TJ- | TravisTheNavi: Id you want a progress meter as well then "cat /path/to/image.iso | pv | sudo dd of=/dev/sdZ bs=100M oflag=direct,dsync iflag=fullblock conv=fdatasync,fsync" | 06:28 |
| shine_ | I found a major bug in ubuntu ... | 06:28 |
| shine_ | what do I do? | 06:28 |
| TJ- | !bugs | shine | 06:29 |
| ubottu | shine: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 06:29 |
| shine_ | And it does effect every single computer | 06:29 |
| wafflejock | shine_: have you explained the issue in ubuntu forums or elsewhere? | 06:29 |
| shine_ | well the package is ubuntu itself - dunno what you call it except a "bug". Maybe "seriously undesirable behavior"? But that is a bug by very definition isn't it? | 06:30 |
| shine_ | When the power button is pressed (not held down, simply pressed and released) a small window containing tiles appears (to shut down, restart or suspend). If this is allowed to time out the computer will shut down - in other words, the action chosen for after the time out is to shut down (as opposed to any other action). If programs are running they will be shut down as a result; and, as a result of this, it is possible that data may be | 06:31 |
| shine_ | lost (at the very least, state is lost). Therefore, it is a "bug". The appropriate (or, desirable) action upon timeout would be for the shutdown to be canceled - thus returning the user to an unaffected state and eliminating the possiblity of data loss. | 06:31 |
| shine_ | That's what I got | 06:31 |
| wafflejock | shine_: not necessarily what you want isn't what everyone wants | 06:31 |
| TJ- | shine_: Doesn't affect me ... sounds like something specific to the desktop environment, probably Unity for default installs | 06:31 |
| wafflejock | shine_: bugs aren't feature requests or improvements or suggestions typically though they do often get filed in the same systme | 06:32 |
| muppis | I can boot 14.04 to recovery console, but if I continue there it hangs to Starting system logging daemon and it starts print nonsense to console like corrupted (caused by a power failure) init script. Which package I need reinstall to rule that out? | 06:32 |
| Hiigaran | somsip: Question, is it safe to assume that since MySQL is not currently running that services that are still running do not use MySQL? | 06:32 |
| wafflejock | shine_: bugs are the system advertises it does XYZ if I give it valid input but it doesn't do it | 06:32 |
| wafflejock | shine_: or really the original "bug" was a moth in the machine messing up the works | 06:32 |
| Hiigaran | somsip: And if that is the case, perhaps it would be easier to simply purge it and rebuild it from scratch? | 06:32 |
| somsip | Hiigaran: no, they will only report an error and software that plays nice should catch that and log it, not crash | 06:33 |
| shine_ | so is it "safer" for everyone to default to the original, unchanged state before the power button was pressed - or to go ahead and shut down? | 06:33 |
| somsip | Hiigaran: I would usually say a rebuild is a last resort if all else fails. Try to recover first | 06:33 |
| wafflejock | shine_: worth searching launchpad or using that link above about how to submit issues to see if someone has already posted this and you can add your voice or if it's a new feature request or change in behavior you believe would benefit all desktop users | 06:34 |
| wafflejock | er at least a big group | 06:34 |
| TJ- | shine_: data loss is certainly a bug - if it is the default Ubuntu then report the bug against the "unity" package initially... bug triage will assign it to a more specific if required | 06:34 |
| wileee | shine_, You have a subjective opinion, like all are, no real data of proof, and really weak rhetoric, nothing supporting it. | 06:34 |
| rsmarshall | hey all, i cleared up loads of files but the disk says it's still full | 06:35 |
| rsmarshall | how do i free the space? | 06:35 |
| wafflejock | TJ-: well it's potential data loss in the case you shut down your system in some particular way it sounds like, still worth noting somewhere if it's not already addressed but doesn't sound like a straight bug perse to me | 06:35 |
| shine_ | I suppose I'm looking at it from a "safety" standpoint. There could be the situation where the person hit the button by accident as well as fails to catch the thing before it times out. In those, rare, cases, it would be safer to no do anything than to proceed with a shutdown. Besides, the guy who really wants to shut down is not harmed by having to push the power button a second time. The guy who didn't want to lose hours worth of work | 06:36 |
| shine_ | is. | 06:36 |
| wileee | rsmarshall, Do you have a boot partition? | 06:36 |
| somsip | shine_: which is reasonable to a point. So report it, as suggested. | 06:36 |
| TJ- | wafflejock: if processes are KILLed if they don't respond to TERM and therefore lose data, that is 100% a bug, if the user hasn't confirmed the shutdown action | 06:36 |
| wileee | shine_, YOU can assign the button to do nothing. | 06:36 |
| rsmarshall | wileee erm i guess so, it's a standard ubuntu 14.04 install. A magento site was creating tons of sessions | 06:37 |
| rsmarshall | I cleared them out and df -h still shows /dev/vda1 full | 06:37 |
| wileee | rsmarshall, Check how full it is. | 06:37 |
| matthew | SSS | 06:37 |
| rsmarshall | it shows /dev/vda1 is 100% even though i cleared all the sessions out | 06:38 |
| TJ- | rsmarshall: some process still has file descriptors open to those files, so they have been unlinked but not deleted | 06:38 |
| wileee | rsmarshall, the boot partition is not sessions, persay, it is the boot and kernels | 06:38 |
| shine_ | Yeah, I'll put it out there. I feel pretty strong about it bc it just happened to me. I lost days worth of internet research (opened in tabs, that, no I didn't want to save just yet) as well as a vidoe which place I lost (ie: where in the ounter the vid was). Thank goodness I didn't have libre writer open with work in it (like I did earlier today). | 06:38 |
| nobunga | what would i type to install the tor browser in terminal? | 06:39 |
| somsip | shine_: fine, but now you're just clogging the channel up with opinions. Just report it | 06:39 |
| wileee | !tor | nobunga | 06:39 |
| ubottu | nobunga: Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl | 06:39 |
| rsmarshall | TJ- so reboot? | 06:39 |
| muppis | I can boot 14.04 to recovery console, but if I continue there it hangs to Starting system logging daemon and it starts print nonsense to console like corrupted (caused by a power failure) init script. Which package I need reinstall to rule that out? | 06:40 |
| TJ- | rsmarshall: no... identify the process and close / restart it | 06:40 |
| rsmarshall | wileee yeah but in this case I've cleared a load of magento session files so they must be kept somewhere or the system thinks they are there | 06:40 |
| rsmarshall | TJ- any idea how i find which one it is? | 06:40 |
| TJ- | rsmarshall: "sudo ls -l /proc/[1-9]*/fd/ | grep '(deleted)' | grep SOME_FILENAME_YOU_KNOW_HERE" | 06:41 |
| rsmarshall | it would be sess* for filename i guess | 06:41 |
| rsmarshall | but it's not finding anything | 06:41 |
| rsmarshall | ls -la | 06:42 |
| rsmarshall | oops ;) lol | 06:42 |
| muppis | rsmarshall, don't put the asterisk at the end if you define partial filename for grep. | 06:43 |
| TJ- | rsmarshall: try search for part of the path leading to the file(s) | 06:43 |
| rsmarshall | nothing in either | 06:44 |
| wileee | rsmarshall, I know nothing about magneto, about 99% of these full HD scenarios are a full boot partition, is why I asked, you have better help than I on this as of now. | 06:44 |
| rsmarshall | ok thanks wileee | 06:44 |
| wileee | np | 06:44 |
| TJ- | rsmarshall: Stop and restart the controlling process is going to release unlinked files. | 06:45 |
| rsmarshall | TJ- Yeah, it's just finding that. | 06:45 |
| TJ- | rsmarshall: if you can do that, then re-check with 'df' see if that's helped to begin with. Also, are you sure the files deleted were not zero-length ? | 06:45 |
| rsmarshall | TJ- not sure, why? | 06:45 |
| TJ- | rsmarshall: well, if they were they would only use up inodes not space, and therefore deleting them wouldn't free space... which means you'd need to look elsewhere for the culprit | 06:46 |
| rsmarshall | ah | 06:46 |
| shine_ | Where is the actual, concrete, place to report a bug for "ubuntu" - in particular? Not the how to page, not the main page of the bug reprt site, the actual place where you're gonna start writing one? The don't make it easy - that's for sure. | 06:47 |
| rsmarshall | I rebooted ;) | 06:47 |
| rsmarshall | it cleared them lol | 06:47 |
| rsmarshall | I think the site is getting crawled a lot | 06:47 |
| rsmarshall | so will have to check access logs | 06:47 |
| TJ- | shine_: From the PC: "ubuntu-bug <package-name>" | 06:49 |
| shine_ | TJ-: There is no internet site? Cause this does not involve any specific package. It has to do with the o/s | 06:50 |
| wafflejock | shine_ in the reporting page they have a section Filing a general bug against no particular package | 06:50 |
| wafflejock | just leave off the package name | 06:50 |
| TJ- | shine_: Alternative, the "Report a Bug" link at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ (top-right of page) | 06:50 |
| wafflejock | you should get some prompts to fill in | 06:50 |
| shine_ | So are we talking about issuing this in a terminal? | 06:51 |
| TJ- | shine_: I've already told you, if you're using default Ubuntu it is the "unity" package. It oes *not* affect the entire operating system | 06:51 |
| shine_ | TJ-: perfect. ty | 06:51 |
| TJ- | shine_: it doesn't affect my PCs with KDE, it doesn't affect any of my servers | 06:52 |
| rsmarshall | so how would i have the inodes cleared up when files are deleted? | 06:52 |
| rsmarshall | as there is a deletion cron that runs to clear old sessions, but if some are 0 byte files, that must be the issue | 06:52 |
| TJ- | rsmarshall: Linux doesn't delete space or inodes allocated to files until the last process with a file descriptor to the file closes. | 06:53 |
| shine_ | TJ-: and that brings me to the "how to report a bug" howto wich is the reason I asked the question here (so I could do this and get it over wtih). | 06:53 |
| rsmarshall | TJ- ah ok, i'll have to look into what process that is | 06:53 |
| shine_ | it's ok man. just tired. I can figure it out. just didn't expect to go through hurdles over it | 06:53 |
| shine_ | (not you "hurdles" the system in place "hurdles") | 06:54 |
| TJ- | shine_: That page has the section "Reporting non-crash hardware and desktop application bugs" which clearly shows using "ubuntu-bug".. it also has a section "Filing a general bug against no particular package" | 06:55 |
| wafflejock | shine yeah just running ubuntu-bug seems the easiest way, since it is localized to unity you could point it at unity package as well, you'll have to register on launchpad to actually submit but they don't want to have a flurry of anonymous reports I'm sure | 06:56 |
| wafflejock | shine_: after using ubuntu_bug and signing in it has a few extra questions to describe the scenario | 06:56 |
| wafflejock | ubuntu-bug* | 06:56 |
| shine_ | wafflejock: in a terminal? | 06:56 |
| wafflejock | shine_: yeah that works | 06:57 |
| shine_ | kk | 06:57 |
| TJ- | shine_: what version of Ubuntu are you using? Because I've just found a bug reporting the exact *opposite* of what you're complaining about | 06:58 |
| TJ- | bug #1256703 | 06:58 |
| ubottu | bug 1256703 in Unity "Shutdown dialog doesn't shutdown automatically after given time" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1256703 | 06:58 |

| TJ- | shine_: How many times do I have to tell you!? The package is "unity" | 06:59 |
| shine_ | It's when I select "other" that this happens <--- that's another "bug" and in the but reporting system (ironic) | 07:00 |

| shine_ | I'm on launchpad and logged in but can not identify a link to "report" a bug | 07:05 |
| TJ- | Dfg_: are you talking about whilst using the Desktop Live ISO and "Try Ubuntu", or after the installed system boots? | 07:05 |
| wafflejock | shine_: also not having any idea about your system hardware or software configuration makes reproducing most issues very difficult so the scan first makes sense for 99% of people using this tool, less for them to do themselves | 07:05 |
| Dfg_ | @wafflejock this is live USB. | 07:05 |
| shine_ | maybe it doesn't like chrome. Idk. I got replaced firefox w/ chrom when flash stopped working and became a security issue. Chasing my tail here. | 07:06 |
| wafflejock | Dfg_: ah okay I misunderstood | 07:06 |
| Dfg_ | @wafflejock why shud we need password for live USB?? | 07:06 |
| TJ- | Dfg_: "Try Ubuntu' should never give a log-in screen, it logs in automatically as the "ubuntu" user | 07:06 |
| wafflejock | Dfg_: using chrome as my primary here too | 07:06 |
| Dfg_ | @TJ try ubuntu | 07:06 |
| shine_ | wafflejock: Oh, I get it. Just is a different sitch for me. That stuff would truly be irrelevant for what I'm delaing with. | 07:06 |
| TJ- | Dfg_: Sounds like possible corruption on the USB... did you check the hash to ensure the image isn't corrupted? | 07:07 |
| shine_ | however they have the server set up its : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu | 07:08 |
| Dfg_ | @TJ- I chose try Ubuntu option | 07:08 |
| shine_ | back to the stinkin howto - grrrrrr! | 07:08 |
| theJian | Is there any good IRC client worth trying? | 07:08 |
| wafflejock | shine_: yup, with regard to after you're in I think they must have disabled launchpads regular ability to just submit bugs since they probably get a lot that don't include system details if they don't force people through the ubuntu-bug program, not sure what the issue is when it launches the blank window though that's a huge bummer | 07:08 |
| TJ- | shine_: the information collected locally is very important, since the behaviour you describe is *not* the default and therefore is probably induced by some other packages or custom configuration. Without collecting additional information the bug won't have enough information to act on | 07:08 |
| shine_ | well, stuff like this forces good people to not do the right thing (report the bug) when it becomes too much of a burden. Then other's may be effected longer. | 07:10 |
| TJ- | Dfg_: When the USB image boot's there is usually an option to "check image" ( or CD?) - I'd suggest doing that to be sure the image on the USB appears to be valid | 07:10 |
| Dfg_ | Ubuntu live USB login loop. Any help?? | 07:10 |
| ikonia | repeating the same thing over doesn't help | 07:10 |
| ikonia | so please stop | 07:10 |
| shine_ | What's the developer channel? maybe they can advise me base on my particular case. Otherwise it's post on ask ubuntu or in the forum which I don't feel would be right or effective. | 07:11 |
| shine_ | I'm not asking a question here - I'm making a statement. "Here's what happense in a particular situation and it ought not to be" | 07:12 |
| ikonia | the developer channel is not for support | 07:13 |
| ikonia | logging the bug is the correct way to communicate the problem to the development teams | 07:13 |
| theJian | Which irc clients you guys use? I need recommanded. thx. | 07:13 |
| wafflejock | shine_: well phrased as a question I do A, B, C I expect my system to do Y but it does Z, why would this be? or is there a way to fix this behavior? is this the default behavior and if so why? | 07:13 |
| wafflejock | theJian: no polling in here try #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support conversation (on a sidenote hexchat or pidgin work well) | 07:15 |
| TJ- | shine_: which release of Ubuntu are you using? | 07:15 |
| theJian | wafflejock: Thx | 07:16 |
| TJ- | Comment #3 in this thread suggests the timed-out shutdown behaviour was the default in 12.04 Precise, but subsequently that default was changed for 13.04 onwards from what I've read. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2020630. A system upgraded from 12.04 to later versions may inherit the setting in the user's configuration | 07:19 |

| zhangbad | hi | 09:11 |
| DDR | Hello, all. I recently hosed my grub installation (rhymes with "wren"), and after reinstallation I am having trouble entering the passphrase for cryptswap1. | 09:11 |
| DDR | in /etc/default/grub, when GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash", I get a graphical prompt during boot - but I can't enter any text in it! The keyboard is still responsive, since I can ctrl-alt-f1 and such. | 09:12 |
| TJ- | DDR: there is no passphrase for cryptswap, it is generated at random each start | 09:13 |
| DDR | So, I set GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet", but now it doesn't ask me for a passphrase - it just stops with a message along the lines of 'starting crypto service...' | 09:13 |
| DDR | The blue dots keep moving on the loading screen, but it never starts the service and never boots. | 09:13 |
| DDR | Booting into recovery mode bypasses the prompt alltogether, and seems to work fine, but it's such a hacky solution. | 09:14 |
| TJ- | DDR: "/etc/crypttab" usually contains something similar to this, pointing to the device being used for swap: "cryptswap1 /dev/sda4 /dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-cbc-essiv:sha256" | 09:14 |
| DDR | Indeed, TJ-, it does. | 09:15 |
| TJ- | DDR: You'll get a lot more detail if you boot the regular desktop entry with "text debug" and remove "quiet splash" - you'll get a text-mode start (no GUI) as a regular user, with all the kernel/startup messages displayed. | 09:15 |
| DDR | I'll give it a shot. brb | 09:16 |

| LordDragon | hey all. any way to change scrolling speed? i am reading up on xinput, but none of the parameters im changing have any effect | 10:29 |
| EriC^^ | LordDragon: type xinput list-props 14 | 10:31 |

| EriC^^ | LordDragon: on mine changing the scrolling distance changes it | 10:33 |
| LordDragon | hmm ok. why are there 3 values? which do i change? | 10:34 |
| EriC^^ | i dont know, this is mine Synaptics Scrolling Distance (277):121, 121 | 10:34 |
| EriC^^ | try changing all 3 to 100,100,100 | 10:35 |
| EriC^^ | see what happens | 10:35 |
| EriC^^ | did you try changing this? Evdev Wheel Emulation Inertia (293):10 | 10:36 |
| LordDragon | yes. no effect | 10:37 |
| LordDragon | its very odd | 10:40 |
| LordDragon | when i change that scrolling distance parameter, it gets worse | 10:40 |
| LordDragon | as the numbers go up, the scrolling goes slower and slower until it doesnt move at all | 10:40 |
| LordDragon | the default is 1, 1, 1 | 10:40 |
| EriC^^ | LordDragon: try negative numbers maybe | 10:43 |
| LordDragon | that switches scrolling direction | 10:43 |
| EriC^^ | does it take a decimal number? worth a shot | 10:44 |
| LordDragon | nope. it doesnt | 10:46 |

| kwak1 | hi all, looking for some help with networking with ubuntu. I have a wifi access point linked to a router via ethernet powerline adapters, need to find the IP of the access point so I can edit its settings. Running 14 LTS but I doubt terminal commands have changed for networking. | 11:01 |
| EriC^^ | Sunny_: type cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999 | 11:02 |
| BotchlaB | In Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Lubuntu flavor) is there a system-wide setting for AM/PM time format? No matter what I do to the panel, it still keeps showing 13:00 instead of 1:00 PM. | 11:03 |

| dutt | Hi, we're going through some hardware and a server running openssl is running 1.0.1f, which is heartbleed-affected right? but isn't there a newer package for LTS? http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/openssl | 11:14 |
| k1l | dutt: ubuntu doesnt increase the version number but it patches the "old" versions with the security patches | 11:14 |
| Sunny_ | @EriC^^ driver:amd64-microcode - distro non free | 11:15 |
| k1l | dutt: so be sure to have all the proper updates installed that come from the official ubuntu repos | 11:15 |
| Kanpirila_ | Does anyone here set their cursor size bigger than normal? does changing the size work for you? | 11:16 |
| dutt | k1l, aha. thanks | 11:16 |
| k1l | dutt: see http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2014/CVE-2014-0160.html | 11:16 |
| ubottu | The (1) TLS and (2) DTLS implementations in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before 1.0.1g do not properly handle Heartbeat Extension packets, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via crafted packets that trigger a buffer over-read, as demonstrated by reading private keys, related to d1_both.c and t1_lib.c, aka the Heartbleed bug.

| mrtakdeniz | hey there | 11:20 |
| dutt | k1l, ah, thanks. do they backport the security fixes to 1.0.1f or just call 1.0.1g 1.0.1f? | 11:20 |
| mrtakdeniz | i just want to ask | 11:20 |
| mrtakdeniz | i'm using webserver on my localhost, (nginx) | 11:20 |
| mrtakdeniz | i need to set my permission 777 to run my web script, because it needs file permissions | 11:21 |
| mrtakdeniz | if i set ownership of file www-data, works good | 11:21 |
| mrtakdeniz | but if i set ownership www-data, i can't edit files | 11:21 |
| k1l | dutt: it gets backported to the version that is actualy used | 11:21 |
| mrtakdeniz | and if i set ownership to my username, i can edit, but script can't | 11:21 |
| mrtakdeniz | what is the correct way to do it? | 11:21 |
| mrtakdeniz | create a new usergroup ? | 11:22 |
| IceBot3000 | mrtakdeniz: Either add your username to the www-data group, or add a new group with both users in | 11:22 |
| dutt | k1l, alright. thanks a lot for the help | 11:22 |
| mrtakdeniz | IceBot3000, if I add my username to www-data , anything broke? | 11:22 |
| k1l | dutt: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/o/openssl/openssl_1.0.1f-1ubuntu2.15/changelog | 11:22 |
| mrtakdeniz | I mean is it ok to change my user group? | 11:22 |
| IceBot3000 | Your user can be in multiple groups | 11:22 |
| mrtakdeniz | IceBot3000, usermod? | 11:23 |
| mrtakdeniz | sudo usermod -a -G group username ok? | 11:23 |
| IceBot3000 | No idea, I just use the GUI | 11:24 |
| mrtakdeniz | oh, ok :) thanks IceBot3000 | 11:24 |
| mrtakdeniz | and another question | 11:25 |
| mrtakdeniz | what should i do? chown -R :usergroup or chown -R www-data:usergroup? | 11:25 |
| Sunny_ | @EricC^^ I am unable get the link for this cmd | 11:26 |

| MCSH | Hi | 12:32 |
| MCSH | I have a weird problem, I can't ssh into my vps with the correct login | 12:33 |
| gotcha | hey MonkeyDust, im still having problems trying to install a package from ubuntu 15 in ubuntu 14.04 | 12:33 |
| gotcha | is it worth upgrading from 14.04 to 15? | 12:33 |
| MCSH | I'm sure the login is correct because if I use vnc to connect to it, I can log in using the credentials I have, however ssh won't | 12:33 |
| MCSH | any ideas? | 12:33 |
| MonkeyDust | gotcha remind me, what was the issue? | 12:35 |
| gotcha | MonkeyDust, Redmine from ubuntu 14.04 packages is old, version 2.5.x, ubuntu 15 has the latest Redmine package 3.x | 12:35 |
| MonkeyDust | gotcha yes, i remember the backports... if redmine is important enough for you to upgrade ubuntu, then go ahead... | 12:37 |
| k1l_ | MCSH: are you sure to give the right ssh command? | 12:37 |
| MCSH | k1l_: yes, It worked perfectly fine last week | 12:38 |
| k1l_ | gotcha: if you leave the 14.04 LTS you need to upgrade every 6 months. | 12:38 |
| gotcha | MonkeyDust, well, if there is another way you know of that doesnt require to upgrade the OS and lets us install the package from ubuntu 15, then i'd like to do that | 12:38 |
| k1l_ | MCSH: then see the auth log on the server | 12:39 |
| MCSH | it says failed password for root from .... port... | 12:39 |
| MCSH | k1l_: | 12:39 |
| k1l_ | MCSH: so try a user then intead of root | 12:39 |
| gotcha | k1l_, do you know how to install a package from ubuntu 15 in ubuntu 14.04 ? | 12:39 |
| k1l_ | MCSH: and root login is a bad idea anyways | 12:39 |
| MCSH | k1l_:I changed password using passwd command, the new password won't work too | 12:39 |
| k1l_ | gotcha: see if there is a PPA to offer a later version | 12:40 |
| k1l_ | gotcha: dont mix the 14.04 and 15.04 packages. that will result in drama | 12:40 |
| MonkeyDust | gotcha what k1l_ says, i had the same idea | 12:40 |
| gotcha | that sucks | 12:40 |
| gotcha | one last thing, is it possible to upgrade a package installed through apt-get using the source instead? | 12:41 |
| k1l_ | you can compile your own stuff. but you are loosing the packagesystem service then for that package. like updates etc | 12:42 |
| MCSH | k1l_: Thanks for the tip but that doesn't solve my current problem | 12:43 |
| gotcha | k1l_, thats the thing, there is no more updates except in the next version of ubuntu for that package | 12:43 |
| gotcha | what im asking is, do i have to remove the package i installed using apt-get frist and then install from source, or the package can be upgraded using the source program | 12:44 |
| k1l_ | gotcha: you dont get updates while using the LTS. new versions can change things so the system looses stability or software doesnt work anymore. | 12:44 |
| OerHeks | gotcha, remove the package, then build | 12:44 |
| k1l_ | gotcha: see if there is a PPA for trusty. that is the easiest way for you | 12:44 |
| k1l_ | MCSH: make sure the password is correct? | 12:45 |
| MCSH | k1l_: yes, however I should mention I changed my id_rsa recently, but that shouldn't be a problem since the server prompts me with password | 12:46 |
| TJ- | gotcha: the (Ruby) dependencies have changed quite substantially between 14.04 and 15.04 so expect some pain if trying to build/install | 12:46 |
| gotcha | TJ-, that sucks | 12:47 |
| gotcha | you running redmine by any chance? | 12:47 |
| TJ- | gotcha: no. | 12:47 |
| k1l_ | gotcha: the 3.xx redmine version got totally different depencies. | 12:47 |
| TenFingersOfBang | dude, roots a great idea. I always change my root password to "password1" then forget about it. | 12:48 |
| * OerHeks smells a troll | 12:49 | |
| * cfhowlett fully agrees with OerHeks | 12:49 | |

| Dirkos | I have a server with nginx and i want to create a webhook. The problem is that the traffic is coming in via www-data (nginx user) and that i need to run a command as "pim" user | 13:24 |
| Dirkos | how can i do that | 13:24 |
| Dirkos | If i do a "su www-data" as root i receive the message that the user | 13:24 |
| Dirkos | "This account is currently not available." | 13:24 |
| Dirkos | So i cannot emulate it by loging in as www-data user | 13:24 |
| EriC^^ | Dirkos: su www-data -s /bin/bash | 13:25 |
| N1K0L4i | :) | 13:25 |
| EriC^^ | not sure about what you're trying to achieve but you can run that to get a shell with that user | 13:26 |
| Dirkos | EriC^^: well how can i run a script as a different user? | 13:26 |
| EriC^^ | well i don't know about the nginx way of doing it | 13:26 |
| teward | Dirkos: you can't. | 13:27 |
| N1K0L4i | what is better AMD or Nvidia graphic card for Ubuntu and wine ? | 13:27 |
| Dirkos | well its not really nginx related but the script is executed as www-data user | 13:27 |
| teward | Dirkos: perhaps with nginx+Lua, but nginx on its own can't execute scripts in a typical setup as other users | 13:27 |
| teward | Dirkos: typically you'll have a backend application that can run as a different user and then run said script(s) | 13:27 |
| Dirkos | teward: it will run the script, the script will execute shell command | 13:27 |
| Dirkos | sudo -u pim -i /var/www/packagist.pim.eu/bin/satis build /var/www/packagist.pim.eu/satis.json /var/www/packagist.pim.eu/public | 13:27 |
| Dirkos | But it promps for a password when i try it | 13:27 |
| teward | Dirkos: then you need to read the sudoers manpage | 13:27 |
| Dirkos | Im now on the shell as www-data user and execute that script | 13:28 |
| teward | Dirkos: the problem is that you should NEVER let www-data run sudo | 13:28 |
| teward | FOR ANY REASON | 13:28 |
| teward | unless you are ABSOLUTELY SURE you know what you're doing | 13:28 |
| friesk | random noob question (hopefully not really an apache question) -- is there a way set apache back to defaults? I manually deleted conf files for two virtual hosts and now i'm getting permission errors at localhost (not even sure if deletion-without-use-of-a2dissite is the issue) -- good news is the apache restart does not report a fail | 13:28 |
| pbx | i was gonna say. if www-data on your machine has sufficient privileges for this then something is wrong | 13:28 |
| Dirkos | I know what im doing, else i need to setup a ssh key for www-data user | 13:28 |
| Mathisen | N1K0L4i NVIDIA seem to give better support.. | 13:28 |
| Dirkos | And i dont think that is smart right? | 13:28 |
| teward | Dirkos: the ONLY time you should permit `sudo` is if you give it NOPASSWD for ONE SINGLE COMMAND | 13:28 |
| teward | Dirkos: neither is smart, and `www-data` shouldn't be logged into anyways | 13:28 |
| teward | Dirkos: and even then, I don't recommend it for security purposes | 13:29 |
| teward | Dirkos: i've been in similar situations, but the backend applications always ran as separate nonprivileged users. | 13:29 |
| elux | hi | 13:29 |
| Dirkos | teward: the issue is that i only have an http hook | 13:30 |
| Dirkos | So the only trigger i have is a HTTP call to nginx | 13:30 |
| elux | im trying to install `texlive-latext-base` and getting this error from apt: E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/ghostscript/libgs9-common_9.10~dfsg-0ubuntu10.3_all.deb 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.15 80] | 13:30 |
| elux | any suggestions? | 13:30 |
| EriC^^ | elux: try sudo apt-get update | 13:30 |
| k1l_ | elux: "lsb_release -d" gives you what? | 13:31 |
| teward | Dirkos: web hooks are simple as sin with other applications, a simple daemon listening on a higher port under the nonprivileged user can accept proxy_pass'd traffic and then process said hook and run said script and return data back | 13:31 |
| teward | Dirkos: but you *really* need to consider that if the hook cannot be run as www-data it's time to reexamine the application and the setup of said applicati0on | 13:32 |
| Dirkos | well it needs to trigger a command on the shell, thats the thing | 13:32 |
| === gnu is now known as Guest53327 | ||
| elux | thanks that helped.. it was in a docker container, so i have to do a no-cache to get the apt-update in | 13:32 |
| teward | Dirkos: irrelevant - it's a command and you need the output, you don't need a shell script to do that, there's a billion scripting languages that work that way | 13:32 |
| Dirkos | teward: it can run as www-data but the issue is that i need to setup a SSH key for that. Since it needs to communicate with github etc | 13:33 |
| teward | ... | 13:33 |
| teward | Dirkos: for the record this conversation is going in circles. For security purposes you DO NOT give www-data sudo access. For security purposes, you DO NOT run other-user-privileged webhooks as www-data as part of nginx, you usually have another nonprivileged user that can run it when something is called, so either a scripting backend or such OTHER than the shell. | 13:34 |
| teward | Dirkos: I also don't accept PMs so you can stop that | 13:34 |
| teward | Dirkos: the moment you have to have a web application interface with GitHub, and `git` commands on terminal, you are no longer in a web applicatuion, or web hook. | 13:35 |

| Philipp__ | hi guys how can I do an apt-get upgrade without touching the kernel/grub? | 13:42 |
| Dhev | hi every one | 13:42 |
| Dhev | how to join a ubuntu machine in domain | 13:42 |
| OerHeks | Philipp__, if there is a Kernel in your updates, you cannot avoid that. maybe you can check the updates and unselect the kernel, but that could result in a broken update | 13:43 |
| OerHeks | Philipp__, so why do you ask? | 13:44 |
| Philipp__ | I run machine on aws and on first boot I normally do an apt-get upgrade which just broke due to subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 255 | 13:45 |
| TJ- | Philipp__: you mean wuthout triggering the kernel/grub/initramfs-tools hooks? | 13:45 |
| Philipp__ | yes | 13:45 |
| jpds | Philipp__: Don't think that you can | 13:45 |
| HoNgOuRu | hi | 13:46 |
| TJ- | Philipp__: grub should only be updated if initrd.img or kernel changes. | 13:47 |
| alpace | hello | 13:48 |
| jjavaholic | I can't get hardware acceleration ubuntu and VDPAU to work | 13:49 |
| HoNgOuRu | I can't login with my account with gdm, but with the terminal there is no problem | 13:51 |
| EriC^^ | Philipp__: apt-get upgrade doesn't touch the kernels, or grub, unless it updates grub itself | 13:51 |
| TJ- | Philipp__: you could use dpkg-divert to make /usr/sbin/update-grub point to /bin/true ... same for other triggers | 13:51 |
| EriC^^ | Philipp__: dist-upgrade upgrades the kernels | 13:51 |
| Philipp__ | hmm I think I will disable the initial apt-get upgrade | 13:52 |
| MonkeyDust | HoNgOuRu i'm sure you mean lightdm, not gdm... what's the output of cat /etc/issue | 13:52 |
| Philipp__ | and just use the latest base image provided by ubuntu which is normally only a few days old | 13:52 |
| HoNgOuRu | let me check | 13:52 |
| yecril71pl | I cannot unlock User accounts. | 13:52 |

| HoNgOuRu | MonkeyDust, | 13:53 |
| kadiro | hello | 13:53 |
| yecril71pl | I am the system administrator; it turns out I should contact myself =-O | 13:54 |
| MonkeyDust | HoNgOuRu that's what i thought... elementary is not supported here | 13:54 |
| OerHeks | Elementary has its own issues, HoNgOuRu , join the elementary channel for support | 13:54 |
| HoNgOuRu | ok, but its nothing related to elementary | 13:54 |
| HoNgOuRu | I tried to install vncserver | 13:55 |
| HoNgOuRu | and that made the error | 13:55 |
| HoNgOuRu | I touched rc.local | 13:55 |
| HoNgOuRu | and vncserver at /etc/init.d/vncserver | 13:55 |
| MonkeyDust | HoNgOuRu we don't know in what way elementary differs from ubuntu, therefore we cannot help | 13:55 |
| kadiro | HoNgOuRu: all things out of ubuntu is not supported here no choice man | 13:56 |
| HoNgOuRu | MonkeyDust, ok, Ill go there, anyways I think its not related... but thanks for your time | 13:56 |

| ashwini_ | kadiro, i dont have any other ppa's installed. I dont know form where the 10.6 + git version is coming. | 14:04 |
| OerHeks | ashwini_, run updates before installing. else is there any ppa involved? | 14:04 |
| kadiro | kryo_: your wlan is eth1 ? | 14:04 |
| ashwini_ | OerHeks, only other ppa is for tlp. I have all updates and upgrades done | 14:04 |
| kryo_ | yeah it's a virtual machine | 14:04 |
| ashwini_ | apt-get -f install also doesnt do anything | 14:05 |
| kadiro | ashwini_: yes the ppa have some depenencies with libgles2 | 14:05 |
| MonkeyDust | ashwini_ remove tlp and use thermald from the repos | 14:05 |
| ashwini_ | MonkeyDust, okay lemme try that | 14:06 |
| kadiro | ashwini_: may be you must use apt-get -f install and autoremove | 14:06 |
| minimec | ashwini_: Looks like that 'git' version belongs to the 'xorg-edgers' ppa. Do you still have that enabled? see here... http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/xorg-edgers/vivid/main/base/libglapi-mesa | 14:06 |
| MonkeyDust | ashwini_ in a terminal, type this to see what it does apt-cache show thermald | 14:06 |
| kryo_ | kadiro: someone told me i should use ifplugd but it doesn't seem to work (i'm guessing because it's a virtual machine) | 14:06 |
| kadiro | yes true kryo_ i guess too | 14:07 |
| ashwini_ | minimec, I added edgers ppa, and removed it.. but for some reason it seems that is not removed completely. How to do some "reset" ? | 14:07 |
| minimec | ashwini_: 'ppa-purge' probably | 14:08 |
| kadiro | ashwini_: apt-get purge APPLICATION | 14:08 |
| ashwini_ | okay lemme try those | 14:08 |
| minimec | ashwini_: If you removed that ppa, do an 'sudo apt-gt update' first and check again. | 14:09 |
| ashwini_ | minimec, okay | 14:09 |
| ashwini_ | MonkeyDust, http://pastebin.com/REkn2H49 | 14:10 |

| gustian | im newbie friends | 14:24 |
| ashwini | can somebody please tell me how to get all the packages index to a pristine state? | 14:24 |
| ashwini | there must be some cache which when cleared would get rid of all ppa related stuff right | 14:25 |
| kadiro | ashwini: try apt-get clean, apt-get autoclean and apt-get autoremove and after apt-get update | 14:26 |
| minimec | ashwini: well.. 'sudo apt-get update' should do that job (clear cache). | 14:26 |
| ashwini | okay let me try again | 14:27 |
| Delta706 | kadiro: I do not think that audacity can do it on the fly. I see that askubuntu question has a second answer. Do you think that answer is worth a try? | 14:29 |
| ashwini | kadiro, minimec the problem still persists... I did it in the order kadiro told | 14:29 |

| OerHeks | Stalkr_, that is one way yes, but carefull with PPAs | 15:38 |
| Stalkr_ | OerHeks: How come? | 15:38 |
| OerHeks | PPAs are not officially supported, so if there is a bug, you will need to adress the ppa owner. | 15:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Stalkr_: what is in the 2.5.0 version that you need so badly? | 15:39 |
| Stalkr_ | ActionParsnip: Not sure if anything, I'm just curious | 15:39 |
| OerHeks | 2.50 is just out, 14 days | 15:39 |
| Stalkr_ | I'm just used to Homebrew | 15:39 |
| minimec | Stalkr_: The question is... Do you really a new version of git? If your answer is 'probably not', I would not go for the ppa... | 15:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Stalkr_: Unless there is a good reason to upgrade a package, the package will stay. Significant bug and security fixes are prime reasons for upgrades | 15:40 |
| minimec | Stalkr_: +need ;) | 15:40 |
| Stalkr_ | Alrighty, how do I remove the repository and 'git' the old version back? | 15:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Stalkr_: Ubuntu is not a rolling release distribution and packages may get left behind. Try looking at functionality of the package version available rather than the version numbers | 15:40 |
| Stalkr_ | Oh, it was easy enough | 15:42 |
| Stalkr_ | I'll stay on 1.9.1 then | 15:42 |
| lucus | i run kxstudio/kubuntu-based and kernel 3.13.0-61 on AMD. i've always used cpu governor ondemand and it was working ok before. now CPU stays at highest speed. how to fix this? | 15:42 |
| MonkeyDust | lucus install indicator-cpufreq from the repos http://www.ubuntugeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/indicator-cpufreq.png | 15:44 |
| lucus | MonkeyDust: it is already installed (v0.2.2) | 15:45 |
| lucus | MonkeyDust: cpupower frequency-info says i'm using ondemand and speed is 3.8 GHz (the max) | 15:46 |
| MonkeyDust | lucus and you cannot set it to powersave? | 15:49 |
| Oggy | teamviewr not installing | 15:50 |
| Oggy | ugg | 15:50 |
| Oggy | :[ | 15:50 |
| Oggy | what is going on | 15:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: what do you plan to do n the remote PC? there may be a sleeker solution | 15:51 |
| Oggy | installed it before | 15:51 |
| Oggy | im swapping freebsd and ubuntu server | 15:51 |
| Oggy | machines | 15:51 |
| Oggy | previously had it installed on unbuntu server | 15:52 |
| Oggy | why cant i install it now | 15:52 |
| lucus | MonkeyDust: yes i can change to powersave but cpu freq still at 3.8 GHz (stdout: current CPU frequency is 3.80 GHz (asserted by call to hardware). | 15:52 |
| MonkeyDust | lucus that's odd... is your cpu overheating? | 15:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: but what are you going to use Teamviewer to do n the remote PC? | 15:53 |
| sleezio | hello, does anyone know of an app/utility that will put a 'hotspot' in the bottom right corner of windows to give you an area to click/drag to resize windows? it's currently set to where you have to be on the exact spot(pixel) to get the dual arrow for resizing | 15:53 |
| Oggy | oh wait i see whats going on | 15:53 |
| Oggy | nevermind | 15:54 |
| Oggy | am 64 package | 15:54 |
| MonkeyDust | sleezio wrong channel, this ubuntu support, type / ##windows | 15:54 |
| Oggy | etc | 15:54 |
| Oggy | meh | 15:54 |
| MonkeyDust | sleezio wrong channel, this ubuntu support, type /j ##windows | 15:54 |
| lucus | MonkeyDust: no. sensors gives me good temp readings but since CPU is always max, the fan is always on at full speed... | 15:54 |
| sleezio | MonkeyDust, MS owns ubuntu now? | 15:54 |
| lucus | MonkeyDust: not a good thing for audio works... | 15:54 |
| MonkeyDust | sleezio i misread | 15:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: you'll probably find a lighter solution that Teamviewer to do most things | 15:54 |
| Oggy | which solution would that be | 15:55 |
| Oggy | ? | 15:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: well...what do you want to do on the remmote systems you connect to ? | 15:55 |
| Oggy | the machine is next to me and I dont want to add a kvm switch | 15:56 |
| Oggy | teamviewer is free | 15:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: does it have its own monitor? | 15:56 |
| Oggy | and does work on ubuntu i would assume because I already had it setup | 15:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: does it have its own monitor? | 15:57 |
| Oggy | yes the machine has its own monitor | 15:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: then why not use synergy | 15:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: one mouse on one system, you move the mouse off one side and it appears on the other system | 15:57 |
| KlausedSource | since #thunderbird on irc.mozilla.org isn't answering me, may I ask my question here? | 15:58 |

| Zombyrad | Oggy, running a 64 bit Ubuntu version? | 16:00 |
| Oggy | yes | 16:00 |
| Oggy | yes Zombyrad Ubuntu Server | 16:01 |
| Zombyrad | You might need to install the 32bit compatibility libraries/packages | 16:01 |
| Oggy | ah ok | 16:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: I always ask because people install teamviewer for all sorts of stupid crap. Like one guy who was unsing team viewer to then open a terminal and run updates. | 16:02 |
| MonkeyDust | lucus scroll down, here's one happy user http://embraceubuntu.com/2005/11/04/enabling-cpu-frequency-scaling/ | 16:02 |
| OerHeks | KlausedSource, known issue for years > " Thunderbird refreshes the folder list when it connects to the server, in particular, at startup. You can force a refresh of the folder list any time by collapsing and re-expanding it." | 16:02 |
| Zombyrad | Oggy, or try with sudo apt-get install libasound2:i386 | 16:02 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: basically, users dont think much and I like to offer sleek alternatives that run great | 16:02 |
| Oggy | fresh install i dont even have a terminal | 16:03 |
| Oggy | where is teh terminal on here | 16:03 |
| Oggy | found it | 16:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: the default install has a terminal. Press CTRL + ALT + T and one will pop up | 16:03 |
| Oggy | ok | 16:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Oggy: to be GNU compliant a distribution HAS to ship with xter,. even MacOS has xterm and vi by default | 16:04 |
| KlausedSource | OerHeks, well actually it used to work before | 16:07 |

| JayBau | Sup | 16:23 |
| Cyb3rn3t | bryan___: default you have one layout installed, what you selected when you installed it. | 16:23 |
| Cyb3rn3t | bryan___: you can add more layouts, and you can easy change between them.. | 16:23 |
| Radkos | I did something bad with my hdd trying to recover the information in it. Using testdisk utility I changed head from 16 to 255 without noticing that the HDD's default state is 16 heads and now the bios can't recognize it, it's still spinning - did that change affected HDD's firmware and is it resettable? | 16:24 |

| OerHeks | just restart testdisk, i guess | 16:26 |
| rednecktek | a recent update seems to have broken my nvidia setup. after getting the drivers back working in X, glx is broken. Any ideas how to fix are appreciated. | 16:26 |

| Mandeep_Singh | Hi all, I want to extract specific values (text) from a file and then apply some command on it. | 16:37 |
| jeffsw | Help! I've got a headless Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS machine here at home, and a Windows box with Cygwin. I have been using XDMCP successfully up until today, when it "suddenly stopped working." I had been getting some errors related to pulseaudio in syslog (about unable to create already-existing directories in /run/user) and no greeter screen when I connect using XDMCP | 16:38 |
| MonkeyDust | Mandeep_Singh i guess you can do that with awk and | xargs [command] ... but i'm not sure about the exact syntax... maybe in the #bash channel | 16:38 |
| jpds | Mandeep_Singh: grep value file | 16:39 |
| Mandeep_Singh | Or to make it easy to understand: I want to get specific values from a text file (data file) and use it in another file(input file) | 16:39 |
| Mandeep_Singh | to get output | 16:39 |
| jpds | Mandeep_Singh: Use grep to look for those values? | 16:40 |
| Mandeep_Singh | jpds, I think it may not be useful in case if I don't know the values. | 16:41 |
| jeffsw | Should I maybe try #ubuntu-x with my XDMCP problem? I am lost without my desktop today | 16:41 |
| Mandeep_Singh | Think it like key: value pair... I know the 'key' but not 'value' then what can I do? | 16:41 |
| jpds | Mandeep_Singh: grep key file | 16:41 |
| Qantourisc | Running kill -sSIGTERM 1 results in "[90826.163300] init: Re-executing /sbin/init" | 16:41 |
| Qantourisc | and not in a shutdown, any ideas ? | 16:42 |
| Mandeep_Singh | MonkeyDust, okay | 16:42 |
| Qantourisc | man init seems to indicate this should start a shutdown | 16:42 |
| Mandeep_Singh | jpds, can I then extract 'value' corresponding to that 'key'? | 16:42 |
| jpds | Mandeep_Singh: Yes | 16:42 |
| jpds | Qantourisc: Better upgrade to kill dash nine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fow7iUaKrq4 | 16:43 |
| Qantourisc | jpds: can't, i'm not sending the SIGTERM command | 16:43 |
| Mandeep_Singh | jpds, any hint regarding that? what may be used for that? grep or something | 16:43 |
| jpds | Mandeep_Singh: echo "key: value" | tee example.txt | 16:44 |
| Fohlen | hey guys. I specifically want to create a user to install stuff via python-virtualenv and run a service with it, which location and settings would you recommend for that user? | 16:44 |
| Fohlen | disabled login and password? | 16:44 |
| jpds | Mandeep_Singh: grep key file | awk '{print $2}' | 16:44 |
| Fohlen | should I use /home/ or /usr ? | 16:44 |
| jpds | Mandeep_Singh: grep key example.txt | awk '{print $2}' | 16:45 |
| jpds | Mandeep_Singh: That is | 16:45 |
| Mandeep_Singh | jpds, thanks that will be more than enough :) | 16:46 |

| pitastrudl | hi | 17:42 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Knight88 | 17:43 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | GIve me a second | 17:43 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, Ok | 17:43 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | One of our severs just crashed because of some malware and trojans | 17:43 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Never happened | 17:43 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, Sorry to hear that | 17:43 |
| darkdragon | hello | 17:44 |
| pitastrudl | im reinstalling ubuntu on my laptop which is dualbooted with windows 7. when i select the ubuntu partition and press install now, it says no root system is defined please correctr this from the partition menu. Do i have to select something in the menu that i open by double clicking on the selected partition | 17:44 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Probably another rootkit so I need to sort that out. Its quite common weirdly. | 17:44 |
| trijntje | pitastrudl: you have to tell the installer you want to use that partition as root ('/') | 17:44 |
| pitastrudl | i assume its like this http://i.imgur.com/UDHhoWy.jpg | 17:47 |
| pitastrudl | it wont touch the windows partitions? | 17:47 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | I am back | 17:49 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, Did you fix it? | 17:49 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Yup | 17:50 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | ISh | 17:50 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Ok | 17:50 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Knight80 can you send me your script? | 17:50 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 I downloaded it from ------> https://github.com/meznom/oscar | 17:50 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Ill check it out now | 17:51 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, Thank you very much indeed | 17:51 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, I have no idea about python, and I did "sudo python setup.py install" | 17:52 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Knight80 | 17:52 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Go to your terminal | 17:52 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | or tty | 17:52 |
| Knight80 | Ok, I'm there | 17:52 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Whatever you prefer | 17:52 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | and copy this | 17:52 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | sudo apt-get install python-pip python-cwiid python-bluez bluez | 17:52 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | After getting those packages try to run it agani | 17:53 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | again | 17:53 |
| Knight80 | Ok, thanks again :) | 17:53 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Im going to try on my computer and if I get the error I will check the scripts | 17:53 |
| Knight80 | great! | 17:54 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Did it work | 17:54 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | ? | 17:54 |
| Knight80 | No, I haven't tried it yet | 17:54 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | ok | 17:54 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, /usr/bin/python: No module named liblo; 'oscar' is a package and cannot be directly executed | 17:55 |
| Pici | Knight80: you really should avoid installing python packages system wide like that. They can step on system packages, and vise versa. Either install in a virtualenv or in your user's path. | 17:55 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | If it doesnt I will attempt to fix the script and then I will post it to github (dont forget to fork if I do | 17:55 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | ) | 17:55 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | OK | 17:55 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | i will look @ the script | 17:55 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Pici | 17:55 |
| Pici | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1: yes? | 17:55 |
| Knight80 | ok | 17:55 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | It wont | 17:55 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Ive done that to all my machines | 17:55 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Never had a problem | 17:55 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Any coding language | 17:55 |
| Pici | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1: Just because it can work doesn't mean that you should do it. | 17:56 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Should be dont | 17:56 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | DOne* | 17:56 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | I need a new keyboard to plug into these servers | 17:56 |
| ioria | Knight80, i have no idea of what are you doing... but you can check if you have these packages liblo-dev or python-liblo | 17:56 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Anyway knight80 im running the script now | 17:56 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, How did you do it? | 17:57 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Ok | 17:57 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Knight 80 | 17:57 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Doesnt matter | 17:57 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | ioria has all ready said | 17:58 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | I was going to say do you have the python-liblo package | 17:58 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, I'm going to check it out | 17:58 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, I didn't have it | 17:59 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Thats why | 17:59 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Credits to ioria too | 17:59 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Ran fine for me | 18:00 |
| Knight80 | It works! | 18:00 |
| === tcpman is now known as Guest9813 | ||
| Knight80 | Thank you both! | 18:00 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Welcome! | 18:00 |
| Knight80 | Thank you very much | 18:00 |
| ioria | good | 18:00 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | What is oscar anyway? | 18:00 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Doesnt matter | 18:00 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | I can see here | 18:00 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Testing | 18:01 |
| Knight80 | It's a script to control a DAW with an iPad app | 18:01 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Testing | 18:01 |
| Knight80 | Or Android | 18:01 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Cool | 18:01 |
| bitcoinassassin | Forgive please a senior moment question: To create a "text box" in a pastebin (such as typing Code: followed by the code used/run which appears in a text box, of sorts). I used to know this but.... forgot. Thanks. | 18:01 |
| Pici | bitcoinassassin: in what context? Are you asking about html? | 18:02 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Knight80 | 18:02 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Out of interest | 18:02 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | What audio workstation software are you using on your iPad? | 18:02 |
| Pici | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1: Could you avoid using enter so often, it makes the channel rather hard to read. commas are free. | 18:03 |
| Knight80 | Ardour and TouchOSC | 18:03 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Yeah | 18:03 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Cool | 18:03 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Good luck with what your doing, hope you complete it! | 18:03 |
| Knight80 | I'm actually trying to control Ardour with TouchOSC | 18:03 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, Thanks :) | 18:03 |
| bitcoinassassin | Pici: Wow, I assume html. Just in a pastebin post - or in some forum threads - it involved "begin" and "end" but I cannot remember the exact formatting. | 18:03 |
| AnthonyUK | I am learning to set up a FTP through openssh-server, I can connect fine from one PC to another with filezilla, my trouble is I don't like users seeeing all sorts of files outside the home directory that I don't even know what they do. can I run "sudo chmod -R o-rwx /" or will that just screw up a load of programs and the entire system | 18:04 |
| AnthonyUK | in short I want to totally lock down my system especially for "others" lol | 18:04 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | AnthonyUK are you doing it locally on a network | 18:04 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | If you are doing it on 2 networks | 18:04 |
| Pici | bitcoinassassin: I'm not really sure what you're asking, but maybe #html would be a better place to ask. | 18:04 |
| bitcoinassassin | Pici: ok | 18:04 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | AnthonyUK | 18:04 |
| Pici | AnthonyUK: Do not run that, you will destroy your install. | 18:05 |
| AnthonyUK | at the moment yes, once I have it set up right there I will then have some friends test over the net, then change the ssh port from default and add ufw to restrict connection attempts | 18:05 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Doesnt matter | 18:05 |
| AnthonyUK | I won't Pici | 18:05 |
| AnthonyUK | thanks | 18:05 |
| daftykins | AnthonyUK: you want to chroot users ideally. pin them in their home path | 18:05 |
| AnthonyUK | thanks daftykins I'll look into chroot, | 18:06 |
| daftykins | something like scponly as a shell might work, i think there are others | 18:06 |
| daftykins | though the first query that comes to mind - is why give file access at all ;) | 18:07 |
| Pici | I think scponly is deprecated, iirc there is a parameter in the sshd_config that does this now. | 18:07 |
| AnthonyUK | I just want them to see their home folder, then I have a few folders in drives that are auto mounted in /mnt that I want them to be able to download from | 18:07 |
| daftykins | Pici: sounds good | 18:08 |
| AnthonyUK | Everything else I don't want them to see, read, execute even smell lol | 18:08 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Knight80 | 18:08 |
| MonkeyDust | AnthonyUK i havent followed, but it looks like lxc containers may be what you need | 18:09 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | Just interested in your little project with oscar and just to let you know that it actually also works with linux oscar as-well-as android and iOS I just tried it. | 18:09 |
| AnthonyUK | chroot is a jail lol, so I just have openssh run limited to only directory paths I choose? | 18:09 |
| AnthonyUK | thanks Monkeydust I'll look into lxc containers too | 18:09 |
| AnthonyUK | I'll take all your suggestions for limiting other, access, but now I've got an evil idea in my head I'll run sudo chmod -R o-rwx / just for a laugh. it's only a test system on a old PC | 18:12 |
| AnthonyUK | just wanna see what happens ! I'd never do this on my homeserver | 18:13 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, How? | 18:14 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, It doesn't work for me | 18:14 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, I mean, the script runs right | 18:15 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, But when I turn the volume up or down with the faders of TouchOSC, ardour doesn't recognise the movement. | 18:15 |
| MonkeyDust | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 could you please change your nickname to lowercase | 18:16 |
| KlausedSource_ | when I ssh into my Ubuntu machine there are no colors (using gnome-terminal). How and where can I change this? | 18:16 |
| KlausedSource_ | I tried several things but nothing seems to work, whats the "ubuntu way" of doing this? | 18:17 |
| EriC^^ | KlausedSource_: colors you mean when you run ls for instance? | 18:17 |
| KlausedSource_ | EriC^^, in shell output and promt, yes. there are none at all. | 18:18 |
| EriC^^ | KlausedSource_: that depends on your shell, and it's .rc file etc. | 18:19 |
| Knight80 | BARTECHNOLOGY-S1, So, did it work for you? | 18:19 |
| KlausedSource_ | EriC^^, well I use out of the box Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS with bash | 18:20 |
| MonkeyDust | KlausedSource_ is this useful http://askubuntu.com/questions/194039/no-terminal-colors-in-ubuntu-server-12-04#194053 | 18:20 |
| EriC^^ | KlausedSource_: type ls --color=auto do you get colors? | 18:21 |
| KlausedSource_ | MonkeyDust, well ls --color does work | 18:21 |
| KlausedSource_ | strange | 18:21 |
| KlausedSource_ | so it's all about .bashrc i guess | 18:21 |
| EriC^^ | it's set in .bashrc i think | 18:21 |
| EriC^^ | (the alias) | 18:21 |
| EriC^^ | type cp /etc/skel/.bashrc > ~ | 18:21 |
| EriC^^ | if you haven't modified your own | 18:22 |
| EriC^^ | or copy the whole skel dir too if you want | 18:22 |
| KlausedSource_ | what I don't understand is that on another machine the .bashrc is non existant and colours work anyways and I also have colored prompt (username and wd) | 18:23 |
| KlausedSource_ | that's without ssh tho | 18:23 |
| EriC^^ | cause you're using a different shell i guess | 18:24 |
| EriC^^ | colored prompts sounds like tcsh | 18:24 |
| EriC^^ | *puke* | 18:24 |
| EriC^^ | :p | 18:24 |
| BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 | #Server BARTECHNOLOGY-S1 information. ERROR 8817. [BAR TECHNOLOGY UK IRC INFORMATION ALERT-x 2.7.3] | 18:24 |
| AnthonyUK | Thanks for all your suggestions and quick responses everyone I'll go off and read into them now :), while my test machine reformats LOL | 18:25 |

| Xeno | Have a problem with installing nvidia driver on Ubuntu 14.04 Every installing results in blackscreen, and I have to purge the driver in the recovery mode. Any ideas? Thanks for every idea. | 18:34 |
| daftykins | Xeno: what card? | 18:35 |
| EriC^^ | KlausedSource_: it must be using .bash_profile | 18:35 |
| OerHeks | Xeno, for what nvidiacard? lspci | grep VGA | 18:35 |
| daftykins | Xeno: share a pastebin on http://paste.ubuntu.com of "lspci" | 18:35 |
| Xeno | nvidia geforce 8600 gts. An older one, let's face it. | 18:35 |
| daftykins | oh wow that relic | 18:35 |
| willington | Hey, I just implemented normal maps (so beautiful: http://i.imgur.com/1MnYU5y.png ), but I just now notice how ugly everything gets in the distance. There's a lot of noise in the background, both by the textures as by the specular lighting it seems, but up close it looks fine. Any suggestions? | 18:35 |
| daftykins | Xeno: tried nvidia-304 ? | 18:35 |
| OerHeks | Xeno, i have an ancient GeForce 8400, works fine with 304 | 18:36 |
| daftykins | willington: OS support in here not dev support | 18:36 |
| MonkeyDust | willington what is that? sure you're in the right channel? | 18:36 |
| OerHeks | Xeno, sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall # should install recommended drivers | 18:36 |
| KlausedSource_ | EriC^^, .bash_profile is also only having something in it that looks like default. comments say it starts .bashrc | 18:37 |
| misho_ | Actually i used to have the same problem with a new nvidia card | 18:37 |
| Xeno | I have posted the result of lspci -nnk | grep "VGA\|'Kern'\|3D\|Display" -A2 with pastebin as recommende. | 18:37 |
| misho_ | but not any more | 18:37 |
| daftykins | Xeno: you need to link it. | 18:38 |
| EriC^^ | KlausedSource_: yeah, could be /etc/bash.bashrc or /etc/profile | 18:38 |
| Xeno | I have tested 304 too. Same result (blackscreen, cursor only remains after reboot) | 18:38 |
| Xeno | Oh sorry, moment... | 18:38 |
| KlausedSource_ | EriC^^, actually /etc/profile looks promising | 18:38 |
| Xeno | http://paste.ubuntu.com/12057189/ | 18:38 |
| EriC^^ | KlausedSource_: which distro is that? | 18:39 |
| Xeno | sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall I did not test till now. Thanks for the hint. | 18:39 |
| misho_ | Xeno, in Linux you can choose from several drivers from one graphical app | 18:40 |
| KlausedSource_ | EriC^^, gentoo | 18:40 |
| EriC^^ | oh ok | 18:40 |
| Xeth | evening | 18:40 |
| misho_ | By default it is open-source driver | 18:40 |
| manuel__ | h | 18:40 |
| KlausedSource_ | EriC^^, ah found some nice section in /etc/bash/bashrc maybe you want to use it too...https://bpaste.net/show/dc8b3a50971b | 18:41 |
| Xeno | Yes I know default is the nouveau driver, the only one working till now | 18:41 |
| willington | monkeydust: oops! I normally chill on ##opengl, but xchat automatically opens #ubuntu as well. I was already curious about all the linux talk hahaha :) | 18:42 |
| misho_ | you can risk with something other from the list | 18:42 |
| daftykins | Xeno: ensure you have no traces of packages named "bumblebee" on and purge all traces of nvidia packages before trying again. so "sudo apt-get purge nvidia* bumbleb* " followed by "sudo apt-get clean" | 18:42 |
| Xeth | wat you guys talking about? | 18:42 |
| willington | And it was also slightly about display drivers... so I didn't even consider I was on the wrong channel. | 18:42 |
| OerHeks | Xeth, see the topic | 18:43 |
| manuel__ | alguien de México | 18:43 |
| Xeno | Yes I did test the 340 and 304, both installed by the nvidia GUI of Ubuntu ("additional drivers", and manually sudo apt-get install nvidia-340. Both did not work. | 18:43 |
| OerHeks | !nomodeset | Xeno i didnt have to use it, maybe it solves yours .. | 18:44 |
| ubottu | Xeno i didnt have to use it, maybe it solves yours ..: 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 | 18:44 |
| Xeno | I never had bumblebee, it's a new installtion | 18:44 |
| Xeth | @OerHeks i see the topic as ubuntu, am i wrong? i meant what you talking about ubuntu? | 18:44 |
| Xeno | I always cleaned all for a ne try, mwns sudo apt-get purge nvidia* | 18:44 |
| daftykins | Xeno: well that's good, but it certainly doesn't hurt to check. | 18:44 |
| OerHeks | Xeth, yes, ubuntu support. | 18:44 |
| Xeno | After that the nouveau driver automatically was there. | 18:44 |
| Xeth | ah ooops my bad :p | 18:45 |
| Xeno | I did the purge order, there were nothing o uninstall, as I assumed. | 18:48 |
| cain-pol | hey, my friend recently hit me offline is their anychance i could hit him offline | 18:48 |
| Xeno | nomodeset schould not been needed with an inten i3 cpu I think. it's a desktop system, not a notebook or like that. | 18:49 |
| daftykins | cain-pol: inappropriate chat for here, please go elsewhere. | 18:49 |
| daftykins | cain-pol: more than likely you just got fooled into believing :) | 18:49 |
| OerHeks | Xeno, how about your bios, any IRQ setting mishap? | 18:49 |
| cain-pol | where would tha somewhere else be? | 18:49 |
| daftykins | cain-pol: anywhere but here. | 18:49 |
| Xeno | it's a bios from 2011. No idea what irq could be? | 18:50 |
| Dorf | got a question. i'm dual booting ubuntu and windows 10 but the grub menu entry for windows sends me to a repair screen | 18:50 |
| OerHeks | Xeno, don't know either, it is worth a look, checking options in your bios | 18:50 |
| Dorf | however, when i change the bios to the window boot it works fine | 18:50 |
| Dorf | any ideas what might be causing this? | 18:50 |
| Xeno | oky, irq should be disabled or enbaled if existing? | 18:50 |
| wolfieorama | hi guys, I am getting an error anytime i try to run the 'make' command on my ubuntu 14.04 64 bit -- "[modules] Error 2" kindly assist | 18:51 |
| cain-pol | ? | 18:51 |
| ioria | Xeno did you run nvidia-xconfig ? sometimes X it's not configured to use nvidia | 18:51 |
| OerHeks | Xeno, if it is an older mobo, irq set to auto should be fine, also check graphics onloard/adapter | 18:51 |
| OerHeks | *onboard | 18:51 |

| bob3247 | daftykins, doint it now thx, odd that google gave me other more complex suggestions, i was sure there had to be some one liner like you posted, lets hope it does the trick | 18:56 |
| OerHeks | wolfieorama, errors give a clue, use paste.ubuntu.com to post that error | 18:58 |
| daftykins | bob3247: well as long as the packages are available it should be fine. use "apt-cache search linux-image-3.13.0" to hunt for those available | 18:58 |

| chrisn_ | so I added a user to a group with usermod -G sftpusers administrator (adding the administrator user to the sftpusers group) -- and when i went to log back into the server it said the user was no longer part of the sudoers group | 19:46 |
| chrisn_ | would appending a group cause a user to get removed from sudoers? | 19:47 |
| Gallomimia | chrisn_: sounds like you might have used the wrong command for that and done just so | 19:47 |
| tgm4883 | chrisn_: yea, that's the wrong command | 19:48 |
| zykotick9 | chrisn_: BUT, did you use -a for append? if not, they they are only in one group now! i'd suggest against using usermod... YMMV | 19:48 |
| tgm4883 | chrisn_: you missed the -a | 19:48 |
| zykotick9 | s/they they/then they/ | 19:48 |

| eipi10 | . | 19:51 |
| chrisn_ | has usermod -G *never* appended the group? i seem to remember it did when i was working with servers regularly a few years ago | 19:51 |
| chrisn_ | maybe it was aliased somehow though | 19:52 |

| lert | My computer isn't booting from my bootable usb. The usb is 32-bit 14.04.02, and it works fine on my other computer. I've tried using the boot menu and switching around the boot order so that removable drives boot first. Is there anything I'm doing wrong, or does this computer just refuse to boot to anything but windows vista? | 19:55 |
| eipi10 | or do I have to go to a browser channel to get 2 cents? | 19:56 |
| eipi10 | in ebonics, that would be equivalent to 2 scrent | 19:56 |

| carpediembaby | Hello. I am on 14.04 and the wifi was getting disconnected. I tried resetting the wifi by: ifconfig wlan0 down / up but it fails saying "error whole getting interface flags: no such device" | 20:13 |
| Dorf | trying not to leave the keyboard | 20:13 |
| carpediembaby | A restart didn't help either... | 20:13 |
| EriC^^ | shift+insert then | 20:13 |
| carpediembaby | Any ideas? | 20:13 |
| ikonia | carpediembaby: have you looked if there is an interface called wlan0 ? | 20:13 |
| carpediembaby | ikonia: how do I look for that? | 20:14 |
| ikonia | if you don't know the device name, why are you trying to down it | 20:15 |
| ikonia | you shouldn't just be doing random things, | 20:15 |
| ikonia | talk to someone in here and ask the channel to help work through your problem rather than blindly typing commands | 20:15 |
| carpediembaby | ikonia: I knew rahe device name from the output of ifconfig. I was able to down it. But now ifconfig up doesn't work. | 20:15 |
| MikeAndIke | Is Gnash a good alt to flash player? | 20:16 |
| ikonia | carpediembaby: I doubt you're able to down it if the device doesn't exist | 20:16 |
| ikonia | MikeAndIke: no | 20:16 |
| k1l_ | MikeAndIke: not really. flash needs to die, really | 20:16 |
| MikeAndIke | k1l_ and ikonia i really need flash player though.. For games like Adventure quest, xat chats online, and other games i play :) | 20:17 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby: what does "ifconfig -a" report? or preferably, "ip a" ? | 20:18 |
| carpediembaby | ikonia: what do you mean it doesn't exist. It was there in ifconfig. Then the connection dropped and I tried to drop/up the interface . It failed on the up command so I restarted the computer. | 20:18 |
| MeatPopsical | do you guys use 14.04 or 15.04? also why? | 20:18 |
| ikonia | carpediembaby: you just said you got the error "no such device" | 20:18 |
| k1l_ | MikeAndIke: see pepperflashplugin-nonfree or adobe-flashplugin | 20:19 |
| k1l_ | MeatPopsical: its your choice. do you want to upgrade every 6 months? | 20:19 |
| carpediembaby | daftykins: now, it only reports loopback as the output. I'm unable to paste the output since the device doesn't have Internet anymore. (I'm on a phone) | 20:19 |
| ikonia | hence "no such device" | 20:20 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby: yeah so have you inadvertently flicked a wireless on/off switch? | 20:20 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby: if it's an internal card, does lspci still show it? | 20:20 |
| daftykins | (the wireless device) | 20:21 |
| carpediembaby | ikonia: I also said that I restarted after I was unable to fix it with ifconfig down/up. Restarting fixes the problem but apparently now it's not getting fixed. | 20:21 |
| carpediembaby | daftykins: lspci shows a network controller Intel 7260 (Rev 6b) and there is no physical switch on this laptop | 20:22 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby: "sudo modprobe iwlwifi" then repeat "ifconfig -a" and see if an interface returned | 20:25 |
| carpediembaby | ikonia: daftykins: before the restart, for ifconfig wlan0 up, I got an error something like connection timed out and some message related to setting gflags which I don't recall | 20:25 |
| carpediembaby | daftykins: yes the interface returned! | 20:27 |
| daftykins | so it almost sounds like your interface down command somehow unloaded iwlwifi | 20:27 |
| carpediembaby | Though it still doesn't connect to the network | 20:27 |
| daftykins | it won't until you restart network-manager | 20:27 |
| MikeAndIke | daftykins after i installed Ubuntu i don't get the freeze up at all that i was having | 20:27 |
| MikeAndIke | Everything is like 2x as fast as it was on usb and bootup takes no time at all :D | 20:28 |
| daftykins | MikeAndIke: i don't recall this situation at all, sorry | 20:28 |
| daftykins | refresh my memory? | 20:28 |
| k1l_ | MikeAndIke: that is no wonder. | 20:28 |
| MikeAndIke | daftykins you don't remember talking to me the other day here when i was uisng "helpmeubuntu" nick lol | 20:29 |
| daftykins | i help a lot of people, the nicks turn into a blur | 20:29 |
| carpediembaby | daftykins: I already tried that. I've been looking for a solution for this and was trying ifconfig thing for this too. Once the connection drops, it never reconnects unless I restart the computer | 20:29 |
| MikeAndIke | I'm on the freenode webchat atm but which would you guys recommend for IRC client out of xChat and Hexchat? | 20:29 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby: version of ubuntu? desktop? | 20:29 |
| k1l_ | MikeAndIke: start with hexchat | 20:29 |
| daftykins | MikeAndIke: hexchat should be fine | 20:29 |
| carpediembaby | daftykins: Ubuntu 14.04 and the computer is lenovo yoga pro 2 if that's what you mean by desktop | 20:30 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby: no desktop environment, so presumably unity standard there | 20:30 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby: are you fully up to date? which kernel? | 20:31 |
| carpediembaby | daftykins: ah, yes. Unity. | 20:31 |
| carpediembaby | I should be up to date or maybe a few days old | 20:31 |
| daftykins | "uname -r" for current kernel | 20:31 |
| carpediembaby | daftykins: kernel is 3.16 0-45-generic | 20:32 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby: ok, so you might consider upgrading to the vivid HWE (hardware enablement stack) which uses the 3.19 kernel - i think that'll provide a newer intel driver which might play ball better, tough to say | 20:35 |
| daftykins | otherwise maybe do a quick hunt for intel wireless bugs for your model card | 20:35 |
| huschke | hello to all...can somebody help me ? i have installed lubuntu and in my login screen i can choose between lubuntu desktop version and lubuntu notebook version...how can i completly remove lubuntu notebook desktop enviroment ??? | 20:35 |
| k1l_ | huschke: what ubuntu version is that? | 20:36 |
| huschke | its lubuntu 15.04 | 20:36 |
| huschke | i cant find lubuntu irc chat | 20:37 |
| huschke | <k1l_> its lubuntu 15.04 | 20:37 |
| carpediembaby_ | daftykins: Is this a good? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds?action=show&redirect=KernelMainlineBuilds#Installing_upstream_kernels | 20:37 |
| huschke | k1l_ : i dont like multiple login screens.. i only want to remove the lubuntu notebook desktop enviroment | 20:38 |
| bprompt | huschke: I assume the lubuntu-notebook or such, would be a package in the package manager, Synaptics, or software center, that you could remove | 20:39 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby_: no you don't install mainline kernels - look up how to get the vivid HWE enabled on your system | 20:40 |
| k1l_ | huschke: do you mean the "netbook" session? | 20:40 |
| huschke | bprompt: thx man.. | 20:40 |
| daftykins | !info linux-image-generic-lts-vivid | carpediembaby_ | 20:41 |
| ubottu | carpediembaby_: Package linux-image-generic-lts-vivid does not exist in vivid | 20:41 |
| k1l_ | huschke: is that a netbook? | 20:41 |
| bprompt | huschke: you could give a whirl to -> dpkg -l | grep lubuntu | grep note <--- to check for any | 20:41 |
| huschke | k1l_ : yes | 20:41 |
| daftykins | ugh fail | 20:41 |
| daftykins | !info linux-image-generic-lts-vivid trusty | carpediembaby_ | 20:41 |
| ubottu | carpediembaby_: linux-image-generic-lts-vivid (source: linux-meta-lts-vivid): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 3.19.0.23.10 (trusty), package size 2 kB, installed size 27 kB (Only available for i386; amd64; armhf; arm64; ppc64el; powerpc) | 20:41 |
| huschke | bprompt: cool..thx ..i will ttake a look..sorry iam newbie | 20:42 |
| huschke | some otgher question. lubuntu shows me 1 bad sektor from hdd but badblocks didnt found anything bad ..whats that ??? | 20:42 |
| carpediembaby_ | daftykins: so i should just install this package and give it a go? | 20:43 |
| daftykins | huschke: sudo apt-get install pastebinit smartmontools && sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit | 20:43 |
| daftykins | huschke: run the above and paste the link it produces | 20:43 |
| daftykins | huschke: don't run badblocks :) | 20:43 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby_: yeah, i think to get the proper HWE you need to install with dependencies though | 20:44 |
| carpediembaby_ | daftykins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack maybe? | 20:44 |
| daftykins | carpediembaby_: yep that's the one | 20:45 |
| k1l_ | huschke: seems that sessions come with the lubuntu-default-session package. you could try to remove the entries in /usr/share/xsessions/ if you dont like them beeing in that menu | 20:45 |
| huschke | k1l_: ok i will take a look in that folder | 20:46 |
| huschke | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12057842/ | 20:46 |
| mustmodify | Am I correct in understanding that I can copy hashes in /etc/shadow from one machine to another, but that for the same username and password combination there may be more than one possible hash? | 20:47 |
| daftykins | huschke: yep, it's not necessarily a risk yet - but i personally would replace that drive :) | 20:47 |
| daftykins | huschke: write that command down, "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda" because things could get worse. there may be more bad sectors that your drive hasn't found yet, if you encounter freezes you'll probably be hitting them | 20:48 |
| carpediembaby_ | daftykins: great, thanks! Ill try if this works any better | 20:48 |
| huschke | daftykins: my english is not so good..i forgot many vocabular..i am from germany | 20:49 |
| huschke | what you mean with encounter | 20:49 |
| daftykins | huschke: oh actually look at line 67, hardware ECC errors are high - i think bad times are coming | 20:50 |
| huschke | did my hdd have a bad sector ?? i didnt understand the textfile | 20:50 |
| huschke | ooh | 20:50 |
| Xeno | @huschke: here it means: erleben, erfahren | 20:50 |
| daftykins | huschke: yes, look at lines 55 and 68 - 1 bad sector got remapped | 20:50 |
| k1l_ | basically the check says: your disk is starting to fail. | 20:50 |
| huschke | xeno..lach | 20:50 |
| Xeno | lol | 20:50 |
| daftykins | huschke: i'd backup and replace that disk immediately | 20:50 |
| huschke | daftykins: i have wotrked with gparted last days | 20:51 |
| daftykins | huschke: and? | 20:51 |
| nopf | so how to edit pdfs in "current" ubuntu versions (drawing boxes and such)? alternatives to pdfedit, which is no more in the repositories? | 20:51 |
| huschke | can it be error because of wrong partitioning | 20:51 |
| daftykins | huschke: no, it is physically failing - it is a dying disk | 20:51 |
| huschke | puuuhhhh | 20:51 |
| huschke | last month i had windwos installed and after formatting drive the error was gone | 20:52 |
| Ioyrie | did you check if your drive is smaller after reformatting? | 20:53 |
| Jordan_U | Ioyrie: Drives don't change their reported size. | 20:54 |
| daftykins | Ioyrie: that's not how it works :) | 20:54 |
| huschke | <Ioyrie> ...no | 20:54 |
| eipi10 | so is Pigeon a chat client like chatzilla? | 20:59 |
| eipi10 | is this the same #ubuntu that's on freenode? | 20:59 |
| MonkeyDust | eipi10 doesnt exist in trusty or vivid | 20:59 |
| SpeccyMan | no but pidgin is | 21:00 |
| k1l_ | eipi10: this is #ubuntu on freenode | 21:00 |
| Jordan_U | huschke: Often writing to a "bad block" can fix it, either by overwriting the same physical block (if the hardware wasn't damaged, but maybe a power failure caused a partial write), or by causing that sector to be remapped so that data for that logical block will be stored elsewhere (in the pool of extra sectors that drives keep for this purpose), and the physically unusable sector will simply no longer be used by the drive. | 21:00 |

| t7 | i would like to roll back firefox to 39 | 21:12 |
| t7 | is it possible? | 21:12 |
| finetundra__ | hey guys, I'd like to move programs to my ti 84 plus silver edition but I've heard that there may be issues. So, how should I go about this? | 21:12 |
| k1l_ | t7: why that? there are no security backports so that is not the best idea | 21:13 |
| Village | work k1l_, thanks | 21:13 |
| t7 | k1l_: a vital addon | 21:13 |
| t7 | that now isnt working | 21:13 |
| t7 | it should be fixed in a few days | 21:13 |
| k1l_ | t7: best is to tell the addon maker | 21:13 |
| t7 | then i can upgrade | 21:13 |
| t7 | k1l_: so not possible? | 21:13 |
| tgm4883 | a vital addon? | 21:13 |
| t7 | popup dictionary | 21:14 |
| t7 | im studying very hard | 21:14 |
| tgm4883 | that's.... no vital | 21:14 |
| Jordan_U | t7: There is a known serious vulnerability in Firefox that could allow any site to steal any of your files. | 21:14 |
| t7 | yeah but i had 39.03 or whatever before | 21:14 |
| t7 | so it was patched | 21:14 |
| MonkeyDust | tgm4883 your parents got their grades without that addon | 21:15 |
| Mike9863 | Whenever I plug my Android device into my laptop via USB, Nautilus opens a bunch of windows and I get dozens of MTP error messages. How can I disable this device from trying to mount because it's clear the laptop can't handle it correctly. | 21:16 |
| MonkeyDust | t7 ^^^ | 21:16 |
| t7 | thankyou for pointing out errors in my grammar | 21:16 |
| t7 | this has been a very helpful experience | 21:17 |
| k1l_ | t7: you can install a version with apt if that version is still on the servers | 21:17 |
| k1l_ | t7: but this is, like we already said several times now, not the best option since there is no security patch backports on that firefox package. | 21:18 |
| tony_ | I need help. My ubuntu 15.04 has stopped appearing after I try to log on. All I get is a white screen. | 21:19 |

| Leverquin | how do you mean? | 22:07 |
| daftykins | you don't get file.ext , you get file with header info | 22:07 |
| Leverquin | oh and where i can see header? | 22:08 |

| joan | hi, need some help with permissions on a directory mounted using the "bind" option. Scenario: /bind_dir, set with 777 and ownership root:root, is the main dir. It has two subdirs, /bind_dir/subdir_home (777, user:user), and /bind_dir/subdir_media (777, root:root). The first one binds the regular /home/user dir system, and the second one the regular /media dir system. Both are meant to be used in a nfs share, and are mounted as usual: "none | 22:24 |

| sirEgghead | wileee, haven't really done anything to this one yet. I dislike realtek. | 22:38 |

| allonhadaya | Jordan_U: I'm digging around... Will let you know if I find it. | 22:39 |
| sirEgghead | wileee, I'll go over some of those results and get back to you again. thanks. | 22:39 |
| bekks | !info stress-ng precise | 22:39 |
| ubottu | Package stress-ng does not exist in precise | 22:39 |
| wileee | sirEgghead, No problem, wish I had better support. | 22:39 |
| bekks | t3p0: It doesnt exist in precise. | 22:39 |
| t3p0 | @bekks oh my | 22:41 |
| t3p0 | I feel pretty dumb | 22:41 |
| t3p0 | I suppose it needs 14.04 huh? | 22:41 |
| allonhadaya | Jordan_U: the crash dump was located in /usr/share/apport/apport -- would that serve as a hint to where I might find the logs? | 22:41 |
| bekks | !14.04 > beisner | 22:41 |
| ubottu | beisner, please see my private message | 22:41 |
| bekks | beisner: dont bother, I tabfailed. | 22:42 |
| bekks | !14.04 > bekks | 22:42 |
| ubottu | bekks, please see my private message | 22:42 |
| t3p0 | @bekks thanks for getting that info for me | 22:42 |
| daftykins | sirEgghead: can you update that install with the wired interface? | 22:42 |
| bekks | !info stress-ng trusty | 22:42 |
| ubottu | Package stress-ng does not exist in trusty | 22:42 |
| bekks | t3p0: It doesnt exist in trusty either, gimme a few please :) | 22:42 |
| genii | hm | 22:43 |
| bekks | t3p0: It should be available in trusty backports: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-backports/2015-February/020479.html | 22:44 |
| sirEgghead | daftykins, yeah | 22:44 |
| allonhadaya | Jordan_U: now that I look at that file, that doesn't really make sense... :/ | 22:44 |
| daftykins | sirEgghead: ok, updated realtek drivers it is then | 22:44 |
| sirEgghead | daftykins, sounds good. mind pointing me in the right direction? | 22:44 |
| === francisco is now known as Guest66343 | ||
| bekks | t3p0: Can confirm it is in trusty backports: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty-backports/stress-ng | 22:45 |
| Jordan_U | allonhadaya: I'm looking up how to get apport to automatically send a bug report including the crash dump. | 22:45 |
| bekks | t3p0: Hope that helps | 22:45 |
| daftykins | sirEgghead: no can do, don't know where to get anything - it'd just be google. | 22:46 |
| sirEgghead | haha kk ty | 22:46 |
| Jordan_U | allonhadaya: Running "apport-cli" should present you with the option of filing a bug report. | 22:47 |
| t3p0 | @bekks thanks so much! | 22:49 |
| bekks | t3p0: you're welcome :) | 22:50 |
| bekks | t3p0: In "revenge", you could clue me a bit further on how to use stress-ng :) | 22:50 |
| finetundra__ | anyone know how to move programs to a ti 84? | 22:51 |
| finetundra__ | on 14,04 | 22:51 |
| finetundra__ | probably not the best description | 22:51 |
| bekks | t3p0: this one: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~cking/stress-ng/ is a bit overwhelming :D | 22:51 |
| allonhadaya | Jordan_U: apport-cli indicates that there are no pending crashes and that lines up with the fact that it's not in /var/crash | 22:51 |
| k1l_ | finetundra__: how would you do it on a non-14.04? | 22:52 |
| finetundra__ | k1l_: I don't know | 22:52 |
| allonhadaya | Jordan_U: could the system have frozen before it was able to write the report? | 22:52 |
| k1l_ | finetundra__: and what does "move program to a ti84" mean at all? | 22:52 |
| finetundra__ | And I'm talking about programs meant for the ti84 calculator | 22:53 |

| allonhadaya | Jordan_U: I know that this line of code ran -- https://github.com/elp/iwlwifi/blob/master/fs/coredump.c#L604 | 22:53 |
| allonhadaya | Jordan_U: if it helps | 22:53 |
| daftykins | finetundra__: i take it you mean software on Linux to manage the calculators | 22:53 |
| k1l_ | !tilp | finetundra__ | 22:53 |
| k1l_ | !info tilp | finetundra__ | 22:54 |
| finetundra__ | daftykins: that sounds about right | 22:54 |
| ubottu | finetundra__: Package tilp does not exist in vivid | 22:54 |
| k1l_ | !info tilp2 | finetundra__ | 22:54 |

| t3p0 | @bekks agreed :) | 22:56 |
| t3p0 | I am learning myself, trying to move away from using StressLinux distro. | 22:56 |
| t3p0 | Would prefer something built it. I will chime back once I get some facetime with -ng :) | 22:57 |
| finetundra__ | that'll do, thanks guys! | 22:57 |

| finetundra__ | and I'm back. Tilp seems to crash when backing up. Does anyone know how to backup with tilp and where it stores backups? | 23:13 |
| daftykins | that's like the most niche request ever | 23:14 |
| daftykins | finetundra__: look it up, i feel like you don't even try before you come here. | 23:14 |
| finetundra__ | daftykins: I do try before I come here. When I do come here, I've reached a dead end. | 23:14 |
| daftykins | finding that program was like an app search, heh | 23:15 |
| Finetundra | Still, now I need to know where it puts backups. And why it crashes when backing up. | 23:17 |
| daftykins | does it have a man page? | 23:17 |
| Finetundra | Yeah, I didn't see a backup location listed | 23:18 |
| jab_here | x | 23:18 |
| k1l_ | Finetundra: that program is a very special one. so you might have more luck with looking into the docs of that program or see if there is a community around it | 23:18 |
