[00:05] nick____: so ask [00:06] what's going on? what card? which ubuntu? [00:06] I have been trying for A Week going in circles installing and Reinstalling [00:06] 14.04 nvidia 745m hybrid card [00:06] nick____: that's still not any detail to explain what's going on [00:07] nick____: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && lspci | pastebinit [00:08] I have seleceted and driver in additional drivers I have installed bumblebee but bumblebee does not seem to work [00:08] I can pastebin any commands you give me [00:10] http://pastebin.com/k6vvhNrj [00:11] don't use bumblebee, that's problem #1 [00:11] nick____: dpkg -l | grep nvidia | pastebinit [00:11] nick____: dpkg -l | grep bumble | pastebinit [00:14] Later, all. Thanks for the company & info. [00:14] anyone here struggled with getting tty1 to work appear after NVIDIA drivers have been installed. installing the drivers seems to make the screen go black when you ALT+CTRL+F1.. ? [00:15] how about F2? [00:15] daftykins: What do you recommend that users with laptops using Nvidia Optimus do if not use Bumblebee? [00:15] nvidia-prime which has been the new approach since 14.04 if not before [00:16] not seen a haswell combo with as old a chip as a 7xxM before though [00:16] daftykins: nvidia often breaks VTs (if you use nvidia.com driver) [00:16] zykotick9: i know, i'm not the person asking. [00:16] daftykins, any tty i choose is an issue [00:17] daftykins: i realize... but when you asked "how about F2", i believe it's all VTs, not just ctrl+alt+f1 [00:17] zykotick9: that's different to my experience then [00:18] http://pastebin.com/JKAMXgUg [00:18] beowu1f: oh well. what card? optimus setup? [00:18] nick____: err why didn't you just run the commands i gave? [00:19] nick____: sudo apt-get purge bumbleb* [00:19] zykotick9, do you know any way around this issue of nvidia breaking the VT's? [00:19] beowu1f: time machine? sorry i don't. [00:19] zykotick9, google is not givin me a good answer on this one.. [00:20] beowu1f: it's pretty common, i'm surprised you can't find much?!?! good luck. [00:20] I tried I ran two commands sorry if I missed [00:20] beowu1f: so... hardware? ubuntu version? driver version? [00:20] nick____: still need "dpkg -l | grep nvidia | pastebinit" [00:21] GTX970, 14.04, v352.30 (manual driver isntall) [00:22] beowu1f: mmm, we advise against using the nvidia site downloads. [00:22] try the repo based 346's or anything newer if available [00:23] GTX970 supposed to be supported by the 343 driver and up [00:24] http://pastebin.com/Bjsrmv3F [00:24] daftykins, the default debian 'nvidia-driver' did not launch into xorg at all.. [00:25] beowu1f: what makes you mention debian? [00:25] 'nvidia-driver' isn't a package i'm aware of [00:26] now we mentioned what to do, so give it a go :) [00:26] nick____: ok did you run the purge of bumbleb* ? [00:26] nick____: also "sudo apt-get purge nvidia* " [00:26] daftykins, sorry i mean ubuntu. bean trying all distos lately and ubuntu has given the most success so far. so sticking to it [00:27] yes i did [00:27] nick____: so ensure both are purged then reboot [00:28] anyone know how to give access to my User to /var/www/html so i dont have to sudo every time i want to edit something on my webserver?

[00:29] Meh32: okay yeah http://askubuntu.com/questions/79565/add-user-to-existing-group [00:30] Meh32: since you're referring to /var/www/html pretty sure it's safe to assume you're using apache which should be using www-data for the group, can verify the group by, ls -al /var/www/html [00:30] nick____: yes [00:31] ok Thanks so far!! brb [00:31] wafflejock: it shows as root user and root group as owners [00:32] you change it Meh32 ;) [00:32] Meh32: yeah can chown it, sudo chown -R /var/www/html yourusername:www-data, should be fine [00:34] am i in?

[01:34] barraponto: it's going to depends on the package and what dependencies it has and what's available [01:34] depend* [01:34] why barraponto ? === Sexy is now known as Guest62944 [01:35] real [01:35] wafflejock: I don't have physical access to the server. It's my dedicated. However, something is very odd. root@sd-79457:/etc/ssh# service ssh restart stop: Job has already been stopped: ssh and it stays stuck there [01:35] kadiro: daftykins: wafflejock: trusty (14.04) automysqlbackup package is based on a Debian build that depends on mysql-client (instead of virtual-mysql-client) [01:36] barraponto: so you tried to use a debian package in ubuntu? [01:36] The same *stuck* thing happened when I tried to remove the keys and regenerate them via dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server [01:37] ok so a question is about debian not ubuntu [01:38] barraponto: seems you can replace this with a small shell script pretty easily and use cron to run it [01:38] well maybe not all the features but depends on what you need from it [01:39] kadiro: yours is? then it's not welcome here [01:39] the mysqldump and mail should be easy, if you really need incremental and stuff would take some work [01:39] daftykins: look up, not me you are confused [01:40] daftykins: wafflejock: kadiro: i'm using the Ubuntu 14.04 package (but it comes from Debian and has been fixed upstream) [01:40] kadiro: you didn't use a nickname [01:40] daftykins: yes this is my mistakes and you don't see before :) [01:41] barraponto: so you're really just wanting http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=automysqlbackup&searchon=names&suite=trusty§ion=all to be a more updated version which is already available in debian? [01:42] wafflejock: yes. it's already in Ubuntu 14.10 and every other version since. [01:42] barraponto: got it now, this package is built from source code or a ppa one? [01:43] kadiro: PPA or From Debian or From Upstream is always built from source. [01:44] teward: you confused me [01:44] FWIW, I'm trying to fix this https://github.com/debops/ansible-mariadb_server/issues/2 [01:44] kadiro: you asked "this package is built from source code or a ppa one?" [01:44] barraponto: not a regular or for that matter good idea in general but have you tried just installing the .deb from 14.10? [01:44] deb file is also build from source [01:45] kadiro: right, so you were ambiguous [01:45] :P [01:45] ^^ [01:45] yes teward this because my english is very bad [01:45] kadiro: your english is too hard to understand [01:45] yes daftykins [01:46] wafflejock: i didn't try installing 14.10+ packages nor debian's. [01:46] daftykins: may be in future i can be clear :) [01:47] barraponto: so i'm late here, what exactly needs 'fixing' [01:47] teward: https://github.com/debops/ansible-mariadb_server/issues/2 the issue is debian and 14.10 have a package with a fix for this but it's not available for 14.04 [01:47] teward: 14.04 package for automysqlbackup is based on a debian build incompatible with mariadb-client package [01:48] so may be an upgrade can fix that for barraponto ? [01:48] teward: there is a newer build that fixes it, all it changes is it now depends on virtual-mysql-client [01:48] barraponto: the one here doesn't have that dependency but it does have different dependencies from the 14.04 version which makes me wary of just trying to shim it in there http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/automysqlbackup [01:48] teward: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=732878 has more details. [01:48] Debian bug 732878 in automysqlbackup "Add MariaDB as an alternative dependency" [Wishlist,Fixed] [01:49] kadiro: no, bad advice [01:49] barraponto: their fix is to add a dependency, that *might* qualify for SRU but don't quote me on that. [01:49] wafflejock: teward: it adds an OR dependency. previous build depends on package A, this one depends on A or B. [01:49] daftykins: i will be happy if you can explain to me or you have a solution for this problem [01:50] (don't know if there are further changes) [01:50] barraponto: "bsd-mailxsimple mail user agentor mailx" isn't part of the dependencies of the 14.04 package so I'm not sure you'd be able to just install the 14.10 deb in 14.04 but [01:50] barraponto: is there a bug open on this issue on Launchpad? [01:51] (for Ubuntu) [01:51] if upgrade is the other option and you absolutely need this it might be worth a shot anyhow [01:51] barraponto: would go back to what I said initially though too depending on the real needs using the mysql dump call and mail can achieve about half of what that program does [01:51] teward: i don't know. that was one of my questions: where should I file such a packaging bug. [01:52] barraponto: well that's a different question [01:52] barraponto: `ubuntu-bug packageinquestion` [01:52] without the backticks [01:52] barraponto: you can use, ubuntu-bug automysqlbackup [01:52] barraponto: state only that the package can't build with mariadb-client [01:52] barraponto: and then link the bug here, i'll link the Debian bugs and make a note this was fixed in vivid+ and affects only Trusty [01:52] i can link to the debian thread. [01:53] teward: ok, thanks. === hugegree_ is now known as hugegreenbug [01:54] just grab the package from newer releases for the time being until it's fixed? [01:55] barraponto: ^ [01:55] kadiro: no, you're not the question asker [01:55] daftykins: i don't care [01:56] kadiro: hmm, i don't think your tone is helpful here :) [01:56] daftykins: i'm not here for you, i'm free to be here [01:56] i don't think i claimed that, but ok [01:57] good [01:57] i think you'd be better off in a channel of your own language, not confusing question askers [01:58] Hi, I'm trying to watching Monsters university via VLC and i keep getting a error occurred and then it just stops trying to play the disney movie.. [01:58] daftykins: what you want for me? [01:58] Michael_Wright: what's the source? [01:58] It does it at the beginning where the language menu on the dvd is, I click english and thats when the error happens [01:58] daftykins I'm on Ubuntu 15.04 and i got the VLC media play from the software center. [01:58] I bought the dvd from my local walmart.

[02:00] Michael_Wright: got ubuntu-restricted-extras installed? [02:00] daftykins: since i'm working on a shared (contributed) deploy solution, i don't think using a cross-version package is acceptable. but I might resort to it in my particular install. [02:00] Yes [02:00] i don't think you would've seen the menu if there were a problem with codecs [02:00] I'll lookup another media player and try..

[02:02] no idea if VLC uses it [02:02] Oh ubuntu 15.04 [02:05] Hi [02:05] on 15.04, group for www-data is www-data and i can do chown -R www-data:www-data and run cron as user www-data right? [02:07] teward: even if that change is not SRU (i hope it is), can we get it in ubuntu-backports? [02:09] hey folks; i have a lenovo t420 laptop running 14.04 LTS. PROBLEM: when I plug in my headphones, I continue hearing audio from the speakers of the laptop. how can i fix? [02:10] barraponto: that's a separate process. [02:10] barraponto: i think this is an SRU thing, not a backport [02:10] barraponto: you can request backports if you want, i can even file the req on your behalf, but... lets see SRU first [02:11] arooni-mobile, Have you looked in settings-sound-output? [02:12] teward: thanks. [02:12] arooni-mobile, There is also alsamixer in the terminal [02:14] wileee, is that a program? [02:14] settings-sound-output? [02:14] arooni-mobile, What desktop are you using? [02:15] wileee, whatever comes default in ubuntu 14.04 LTS [02:15] wileee, when i MUTE the speaker output in alsamixer [02:15] it gives me the desired effect [02:16] but when i use the volume keys on my laptop / keyboard of mute/volume+up volume+down, the volume of speaker + headphone move in lock step [02:17] on 15.04, group for www-data is www-data and i can do chown -R www-data:www-data and run cron as user www-data right?

[02:23] wileee ok, as soon as it starts to boot the cd push esc? [02:23] wileee, kadiro just installed pavucontrol; seems to allow me to adjust volume and maintains audio output ONLY in my headphones [02:24] rredd4, Yes or shift, on a standard install that brings up the early gui. [02:24] but it looks like i have to manually switch using pavucontrol whether i want audio output into headphones / speakers [02:24] is there a way for this switch to be automatic? [02:24] arooni-mobile, I'm done, your just flailing honestly. [02:24] arooni-mobile: try in pavucontrol you will find a solution [02:25] wileee, i fail to see how; [02:25] of course you don't [02:25] kadiro, the pavucontrol solves the problem; i was just hoping that ubuntu would switch audio output automatically to *only* headphones when plugged in [02:25] but the work around isnt that annoying === fe is now known as Guest23713 [02:26] arooni-mobile: the solution of wileee work too, i just give you a program do a job for you [02:27] well i would just like audio to switch between speakers / headphones automatically, but at least i can switch the intput manually [02:27] wileee holding esc key shows, boot: [02:28] rredd4, I have never owned an apple so this was just what may work, there is a wiki, have you seen it? [02:28] arooni-mobile: for that i'm not very experienced but may be something to do ( reconfigure alsa ) i think [02:29] wileee no [02:29] I can no longer change audio output. The output devices show up in the Sound control center, but selecting them does not change the output. [02:29] rredd4, YOu tried both keys mshift as well? [02:29] shift* [02:29] I installed skype, then realized that was dumb and did an autoremove.... I think that uninstalled something important [02:29] Not shift yet [02:30] is there a way to make sure all the default packages are still installed?

[02:50] heh [02:51] wileee, shell [02:52] m82labs, I don't see much on this, never knew myself on or off, but here is a link, not sure if the answer you need. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2211318 [02:55] wileee, I have been away from linux for a while, but every distro I have ever used in the past (invluding Ubuntu) defaulted to highlight = copy, middle-click = paste. [02:56] wileee, seems to no longer be the case. Unless this issue is specific to Ubuntu-Gnome [02:58] m82labs, seems since xterm in the base control, might be something in gconf [02:58] is in * [02:58] just a guess though [03:01] i need more speedy in ssh [03:02] very vvery slow sending command [03:02] titocaldo, get better Internet connection? [03:02] no [03:03] internet connection very speed [03:03] m82labs: i don't know the details, but i remember seen Gnome was removing that functionality at X version, perhaps ubuntu has reached that version?

[03:17] syshk: like the factoid says, support questions here or chat in #ubuntu-offtopic :) [03:18] should i allow uncategorized web sites in a web filter? [03:18] oops sorry [03:20] Thank you daftykins for the first time I use Xchat === corbe is now known as hohum [03:27] salve [03:31] ` .` [03:32] Question - I have read irc guidelines but did not see anything related - Is it netticquette to announce yourself when you log in- the first time, or should I just log in and start chatting? [03:33] m [03:33] well this is a support channel so you log in and ask support questions [03:33] zabear: don't ask to ask, just ask [03:33] chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic [03:33] syshk: stop hitting random keys please [03:33] But I have asked [03:34] in an inappropriate channel yes :) [03:35] zabear: Generally, just start talking. [03:35] If this is an inappropriate channel, where should I go ? which channel? [03:36] zabear: If you're looking for general chat, #ubuntu-offtopic is the place. #ubuntu is just for Ubuntu-related technical support. [03:36] zabear: i already answered that if you read ;) [03:37] hey all, problem here, I tried installing ubuntu in uefi mode and it won't boot, I've done the boot-repair and it says everything looks kosher [03:38] At Flannel: I need information relating to IRC use, but did not find answers in the irc info pages [03:38] what kind of system?

[03:40] Flannel: now now, you can't read my emotions from text :) [03:40] My ubuntu box has a single physical connection patched to a trunk port. The trunk port defaults to VLAN 40. I have installed the vlan package from apt-get to map an eth0.50 VLAN, however I'd like to also set up eth0 so it sends out untagged traffic. Anyone know if that's possible? [03:41] gartral: so... what kind of system? [03:41] daftykins: built it myself [03:42] gartral: is ubuntu the only OS? [03:42] yes, might maybe install 10 later [03:43] ok that's backwards, always put Windows on first for the easy approach [03:43] windows 10* [03:43] but yeah not a good sign that you can't get it alone to boot [03:43] look if your motherboard has any newer BIOSs [03:44] daftykins: to be fair, I don't have my 3tb disk yet [03:44] that doesn't really mean much to me [03:44] :) [03:45] daftykins: I installed ubuntu on a external disk [03:45] * daftykins blinks [03:46] externally attached how? [03:47] USB 3 [03:48] Is there another channel to go to for IRC netiquette - Ubuntu-off topic-channel has currently no one there at present [03:56] zabear, Not supported here, but just act natural and respectful to others here, no real etiquette, every channel is different. [03:57] zabear: you might be looking for #ubuntu-offtopic ... but you should bring your netiquette with you ;-) [03:57] Kant says dignity and respectful always [04:01] hey - I appreciate advice - didn't mean to offend anyone - just did't know where to start - will now stop posting her - bye [04:05] any keboard expere here ..

[05:09] phatlynx: I'd say so. It's nice that my motherboard actually comprehends booting to different operating systems rather than just saying "Hey, here's the boot drive! Let's look at the MBR" [05:09] phatlynx: http://www.howtogeek.com/56958/ [05:11] phatlynx: If you want, you don't even need a boot loader with UEFI. You can just let the motherboard handle it. [05:13] LambdaComplex: the motherboard? === christophe is now known as Guest47815 [05:14] phatlynx: Yeah, and use its boot menu to choose which .efi file you wanna load [05:14] somsip: Thanks. unclutter is working perfectly [05:14] ICantCook: np [05:17] LambdaComplex: interesting [05:17] phatlynx: Of course, you can still use a boot loader. GRUB2, gummiboot (now systemd-boot), and rEFInd come to mind. [05:18] Oh, and Syslinux. [05:20] LambdaComplex: thanks for the tip [05:20] phatlynx: No problem [05:25] LambdaComplex: if i have windows and ubuntu do they both need a efi boot directory on the -same- partition? [05:27] phatlynx: Yes, they'll both use the same EFI System Partition [05:28] why the hell does eclipse always look broken on ubuntu and ONLY on ubuntu? [05:28] For instance, I have /boot/EFI/Microsoft and /boot/EFI/refind [05:28] is nobody of you using eclipse? [05:28] Correct. [05:29] well ubuntu is unusable like this [05:29] LambdaComplex: Good call [05:30] What does "broken" mean in this case? [05:30] phatlynx: Assuming you installed Windows before Linux (which is generally the best way of doing it), you should already have a valid ESP [05:30] Although Windows only makes it 100 MiB, which is arguably a tad small [05:31] phatlynx, this is a mac, yes??

[07:58] a linux pc ofc [07:58] guys. i need player for mp3 and radio stream recording. which one can i choose? [07:58] Idle84818: if you have 5 virtual consoles on start, you can log in different users using alt-F{number} on each console [07:59] so if i only have one user its kinda pointless? [07:59] Idle84818: depends on your use case [07:59] Idle84818: it's good if something goes wrong with the X display GUI [07:59] hhee, open the software center. search for yourelf. don't be lazy.

[08:25] Go ahead [08:25] I can't reach my login screen in Ubuntu 14.04 [08:25] So the short version of my question is "how do I make ubuntu boot in legacy mode from usb stick?" or else "if I install ubuntu in uefi mode, will it boot in legacy mode?"

I've tried using "partman-auto/expert_recipe" but it doesn't seems to work :( === rendszergazda is now known as Guest23764 [08:38] wafflejock: first fucked up thing : the tutorial ask me to modify the existing things in the main.cf of postfix, but they do not exist :/ [08:38] spoot: if you're just trying to get this sending out mail you might be better off configuring with this http://linuxconfig.org/configuring-gmail-as-sendmail-email-relay postfix is definitely a pretty robust solution and lets you setup spam handling and virus scanning and all and lets you customize the accounts and forwarding etc [08:39] spoot: if you aren't actually trying to get a full blown email server though and just need to send out it's probably overkill [08:39] wafflejock:yeah, I just want my websites to sometime send a few notifications by mail [08:39] wafflejock: and only to admins [08:39] !info sendemail | spoot (very simple gmail sender) [08:39] spoot (very simple gmail sender): sendemail (source: sendemail): lightweight, command line SMTP email client. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.56-5 (vivid), package size 28 kB, installed size 124 kB [08:40] spoot: k in that case I'd suggest skipping on postix and just using sendmail configuration [08:41] we're lost [08:41] sendemail is not sendmail ? [08:41] :( [08:42] spoot: no [08:42] details matter [08:43] good afternoon...where can i found a working ppa to update chromium in ubuntu?

[08:53] Hi everybody o/, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, when I try to open a .txt file, it doesn't open on clicking it, there is no "open" also when right clicking, and i always need to use "open with" to open it and then do 2 clicks to open it with gedit (which is set as default to open) as only libre ofice is shown first as option. why does the txt file not simply open ? [08:53] that does only work if he's the owner. [08:53] shredding: try with sudo [08:53] wafflejock: http://pastebin.com/pDRYa6Mh [08:54] somsip: But i want to do it as deployer. [08:54] It's part of a deployment script [08:55] shredding: you cant change something that doesn't belong to deployer, to being owned by deployer, without sudo [08:55] somsip: Ok. [08:56] shredding: You can give that specific user a very specific right to use sudo for one specific command. [08:56] somsip: So i can't chmod as well? [08:56] !permissions | shredding [08:56] shredding: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [08:56] To give you context: I have a web application that generates cache files as www-data:www-data. I want to flush the cache after deployment. [08:56] !hugs ubottu [08:57] spoot: yeah not sure about that really been a while since I set that up myself maybe can get help from someone else on here if it isn't working [08:58] shredding: add deployer to www-data group? Change the /cache directory to :deployer? [08:58] hey does anyone know how to open gnome-terminal and run a command and then just leave the terminal window open as if it was opened by the user? [08:58] spoot: just know it took days to configure postfix properly and have configured sendmail in a few minutes before and had it working sending out through gmail [08:58] somsip: Yes, that works. [08:58] cool [08:58] grahamsavage__: add an & [08:59] wafflejock: Thank you :) [08:59] grahamsavage__: like, firefox & [08:59] spoot: np good luck, gotta get to bed here [09:00] gnome-terminal --title=Package --working-directory="/tmp" -x 'ls -al &' << like so? [09:00] grahamsavage__, you can tell a terminal window to not close when it's done [09:00] grahamsavage__, forgot where u have to set that though [09:00] vuurdraak, yeah i tried that through profiles, but it still didn't return control the user [09:00] i've been scouring google, i haven't found a solution that works [09:01] grahamsavage__: would screen be an option for you?

And I suggested something simpler than sendmail [09:12] somsip: Ok, I'll try the sendemail thing now :) [09:14] somsip:but can I use sendemail as php mail sender ? [09:15] spoot: from memory it uses the same API as sendmail. Check the man page [09:19] somsip: got the man page, but what can i check on it ? how can i check if it has the same api as sendmail ? what does it implies ? [09:19] Hello [09:19] quit [09:21] spoot: read the help.

Any idea where from I can download the mini.iso image for ubuntu 14.04.2 ? [10:13] !mini [10:13] The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [10:14] EriC^^:I did that, but managed to install .3 instead of .2 [10:15] ok.. [10:15] why do you need .2 and not .3 ? when you update it'll become .3 [10:15] NOTE: Helped a user fix Sendmail Issue [10:15] :) [10:16] hi how can i make a music server using ubuntu, i want to be able to ssh from my iphone to change music as it is a headless server [10:18] you might want to look at cmus and cmus-remote [10:18] is it a bad approach to use source in an upstart script? [10:19] I need to switch in a python-virtualenv to execute some stuff, maybe using bashrc is better [10:21] hi guys: how can i adjust resolution? Im normally a mageia boy, but they don't have an arm port, so I'm giving ubuntu a run === mk is now known as Guest55230 [10:25] EriC^^:how is that relevant to my question? [10:26] I'm trying to get tmpreaper working from crontab, but it's not doing anything. When I run the command manually it seems to work. I do see a log in syslog like Aug 12 09:07:01 localhost CRON[21558]: (root) CMD (tmpreaper -m 8h [...]) so I think it runs but it's not removing any files. [10:27] cbg0:maybe you are running it with the wrong user [10:27] OmiKrOn: cause it's kind of stupid [10:27] if you want a machine to talk to you /msg ubottu [10:27] OmiKrOn: it's running as root. [10:27] expect answers like this in an irc channel [10:28] EriC^^:you are not making any sense, instead you are showing as an arrogant prick [10:29] OmiKrOn: no, i was saying why do you need .2 release precisely and not .3? and after you install it will upgrade to .3 anyways [10:29] somebody know javascript? [10:29] so it's like you're doing something or going about it the wrong way.. and you kept being literal and "answer - my - exact - question - plz" [10:30] cbg0:maybe use MAILTO var and see if there is any kind of output like permission errors or something [10:30] EriC^^ is a pretty nice fella, i dont know where you get that from OmiKrOn [10:30] EriC^^:sorry I kindof missed that line [10:31] np [10:33] OmiKrOn: so why do you need .2 and not .3? [10:34] hi, can someone help with vpn in 15 Ubuntu? I've tried OpenVPN module from appcenter but it won't allow me to save connection or load config files, i also tried strongswan but it's shutting down with connect timeout error [10:35] OmiKrOn: i don't think there's a mini .2 , because when you use the mini it installs the latest packages from the online repos, so it'll be .3 [10:35] EriC^^:yea. The background here is to create a base image for the software we are offering. It is most needed because or QA process uses .2 and, also, in conjunction with locking up automatic updates for a few packages via apt [10:36] oh [10:37] all right, I think I just might download the 14.04.2 full iso and that would be it :) [10:38] ok :) [10:38] it's in old-releases.ubuntu.com i think [10:38] EriC^^: thank you and sorry for the earlier upset episode [10:38] no worries and no problem [10:39] OmiKrOn, http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/trusty/ [10:41] ask: does Bijiben have online synchronization?

[10:48] When you plug a USB drive into Ubuntu, then choose to "safely remove" with Unity, what is it doing differently than a mere umount? [10:49] jbermudes: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/178638/eject-safely-remove-vs-umount [10:50] jbermudes: That links to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1301556 which apparently claims that for a USB flash drive, it's equivalent. [10:50] nvn [10:50] nvm [10:53] BotchlaB: So then if you want to make an image of a drive with dd, I should umount the partitions and not simply eject or else I'll cut off the power to the drive? [10:54] jbermudes: As per that last link, the problem is that "Eject" is confusing terminology for USB flash drives; that's generally for optical (CD/DVD/BD) drives. [10:54] jbermudes: And it seems that that option being available for USB drives is some sort of oversight. [10:58] BotchlaB: Well, in later versions of Ubuntu they merged it back into simply "safely remove", but anyway, I just tried to DD and sure enough it couldn't find the drive cause Unity ejected it, so I guess I'll just umount. Thanks [10:58] jbermudes: I see. [10:58] jbermudes: No problem. [10:58] s/ejected/powered down/ [10:58] Ahhh, OK, you meant 'powered down'. I get you now. I thought you meant the menu option that said "Eject". :) [10:59] sorry, it's a bad habit from my Windows days :P === dearn_ is now known as dearn [10:59] How do I get rid of the error ImportError: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libselinux.so.1: undefined symbol: pcre_free_study [10:59] Yeah, 'eject' seems to imply something being physically ejected -- like an optical drive tray.

[12:58] old ppa [12:59] Carolin: good question [12:59] thanks TJ- :). i don't know why i didnt think of adding the user to the other users' groups [12:59] OerHeks: i can see that, but why does it think "1:1.2.7-1ubuntu1" is newer than "1.2.13-0~276~ubuntu14.10.1" [13:00] clearly 1.2.7 is not newer (in feature terms) than 1.2.13 [13:00] OerHeks: but maybe there have been backports to the ubuntu version that make it seem newer? [13:02] OerHeks: so my original question remains, how does ubuntu make the decision which version is "better"? [13:02] catphish: type apt-cache policy keepalived [13:03] EriC^^: http://paste.codebasehq.com/pastes/x9sfayvpxdobyph3a2 === marianne is now known as Guest74274 [13:05] hi guys... running 14.04 and I can't figure out how to not show hidden files. I know you can go to view and uncheck the option, but they're back again every time I open the folder... how do I make them stay hidden until I need to look at them? [13:05] catphish: the 1:1.2.7-1ubuntu1 is from ubuntu ( software manager ) but 1.2.13-0~276~ubuntu14.10.1 is from ppa's [13:05] kadiro: correct [13:05] ummmm... never mind, finally found the option [13:06] kadiro: but why is the ubuntu source preferred? [13:06] catphish: that why ubuntu choose the trusted one as newely [13:06] hey guys [13:06] why does ubuntu touch have phone and messaging apps on a nexus 7? [13:06] kadiro: i don't understand [13:07] kadiro: surely it doesn't *always* prefer ubuntu sources over 3rd party sources, that would make PPAs pointless === muindor|2 is now known as muindor [13:07] catphish: maybe it has to do with the priority: extra? [13:07] nevermind [13:07] i don't know :( [13:08] catphish: fore some reasons ubuntu choose the original source as prefered but not always ( may be something about dependencies or political .. ) [13:08] catphish: try sudo apt-get install keepalived= [13:08] i have the same problem in a past [13:09] EriC^^: that works - "The following packages will be DOWNGRADED" [13:09] heh [13:09] *shrug* [13:10] of course, now every aptitude upgrade tries to upgrade it back :( [13:10] catphish: look at how those packages are numbered, particularly the punctuation [13:11] mcphail: that was my suspicion, i didn't understand the 1: format though [13:11] Is Ubuntu Server 14.04 version Debain Wheezy? [13:12] Hi guys, I know this is a hardware question, but what kind of surge protectors do you guys use? I'm thinking of upgrading mine since I live in an area where there are frequent lightning strikes [13:12] catphish: all you need to understand is the package manager thinks anything with 1: is newer than anything with 1. [13:12] catphish: ask the PPA maintainer to sort out the numbering and you should be fine [13:13] mcphail: sure, though it seems worth understanding the meaning of 1: :) [13:14] catphish: there isn't any significance - just how the package maintainer chose to number it [13:14] mcphail: oh ok [13:16] hello guys, I need some help. I have instelled ubuntu about a month ago, and I getting the one problem with apt, it don't work, don't matter what i do, always it return the same erro,dpkg: error processing package runit (--configure): sub-processo script post-installation installing reto an erro 1 [13:16] any ideia??

I'm looking to report a bug regarding processor power managment (CPU freq is stuck on resume from suspend). I'm looking for advice on whether I should start by reporting this against pm, against the kernel, or against cpupower or whatever that equivalent package is? I use the cpufreq-indicator thingy, though I guess I sort of doubt it's responsible itself [13:52] I've been on some long runarounds with bug reports before, and I want to make sure I'm gathering the right information the first time and don't end up having to re-do lots of tests and log dumps and the like [13:52] MoPac: I'd think start with "linux" are let bug triage figure out if it needs to be reallocated, based on further investigation [13:52] ola [13:52] I have enabled Desktop Sharing and I connect via VNC [13:52] nfs question: I've got a dir /media bound through /etc/fstab with rbind option to the dir /shared/media (777, root:root). I can list/shared/media contents at the server, but not in the client, which mounts the share under /home/user/server. Also at the client, I can, however, access to the /home/user/server/home_user contents. I have the same reversed configuration between these two boxes, and everything works fine. What's the problem? (e [13:52] xport options are, in both cases: /shared client_ip(rw,sync,fsid=0,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,crossmnt) ; user and UID are the same) [13:52] alguem de portugal?

Or do I also have to pretty much resign myself to doing an upstream/mainline test and including that up front? [13:53] "/join#ubuntu-pt.

[13:56] nothing happened [13:56] https://www.dropbox.com/install?os=lnx [13:56] from here [13:57] pitastrudl: okay, and so now if you go to the launcher and start typing "dropbox", do you have a Dropbox application installed? [13:57] yes [13:57] hey iirc if ubuntu can't mount a partition it comes up with an error message that says "press x to continue anyway" - can someone tell me what x is? [13:57] i'm trying to boot a systme that doesn't have a monitor attached to it [13:58] adante: what is the exact error? [13:58] pitastrudl: And when you go to open that application, nothing happens? And there is no little dropbox icon in the indicator bar on the top right? (Looks like a little gray open box)) [13:58] nope [13:58] k1l_: well that's what i'm asking - the system doesn't have a monitor attached to it so i'm guessing that's it [13:58] ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [13:58] adante: where do you get the "cant mount" issue? [13:58] freshly installed ubuntu [13:59] k1l_: usually when you boot [13:59] MoPac: Testing with earlier and later kernels is a good thing since it tells us if there's a regression, or a later fix. If the latter, and we can identify the commit, we can backport it to the affected kernel without a lot of extra work [13:59] pitastrudl: Try opening a terminal (ctrl-alt-t) . Enter "Dropbox status" [13:59] adante: then see "dmesg" what the issue is [13:59] MoPac ok hold on [14:00] MoPac: the more quality information you can provide with the initial bug report, the more likely it'll get immidate attention from the kernel team. [14:00] pitastrudl: do you understand german? (your nick sounds like you do) [14:00] nein [14:00] only basic german [14:00] Explenation of my nick: pita(is pie in slovenian) and strudl(strudel) is a german pastry. Those two are my favorite pastries, hence my nick. [14:01] !de | pitastrudl [14:01] pitastrudl: In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! [14:01] ok, i would have suggested to see the excellent german wiki then: https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/dropbox [14:01] lmao [14:01] MoPac: A couple weeks ago a user here reported an issue, did some tests as I requested, and within about 4 hours we identified a fix, backported it, provided the user with a test kernel, confirmed the fix, and it was released in a kernel upgrade a day or so later. [14:01] ich kann nicht verstehen [14:01] k1l_: http://pastebin.com/bLTAhFx6 [14:02] pitastrudl: so is the "dropbox" package installed? [14:02] I dont see anyproblem [14:02] I don't know how to fix that [14:02] TJ-: Understood. I asked from the standpoint of not even knowing if this is a kernel error at all. I know how important the upstream testing is for real kernel errors, but if this is something that's likely to get redirected into a report on a different package, I didn't know whether it was an investment that should be made up front [14:02] k1l_ the one from dropbox website? yes [14:02] k1l_ says dropbox isnt running [14:02] i mean MoPac ^ [14:02] pitastrudl: okay, so in teerminal type "dropbox start" and see what happens [14:03] dropbox daemon isnt installed [14:03] pitastrudl: did it create the dropbox PPA in /etc/apt/sources.list.d? [14:03] run dropbox start -i to install the daemon [14:03] uhhh [14:03] pitastrudl: ah, using a proxy? [14:03] what [14:03] no? [14:03] o.0 [14:04] k1l_ it says dropbox.list in that dir [14:04] well, give dropbox start -i a go [14:04] MoPac: the kernel governor is responsible for controlling the frequency so it sounds to me like a pure kernel issue with that module not correctly performing its on_resume() function [14:04] k1l_ it started a dropbox instalationl [14:04] lul [14:06] pitastrudl: Yeah, so going with k1l_ , it's a little odd that it would have installed the gui and not the daemon, so I'd scratch my head a little on what happened.... Anyway, let's see if it works now and also after a restart [14:06] TJ-: gotcha [14:06] MoPac: which governor do you have configured? I can do a quick check against patches to that module [14:07] MoPac ok so it starts via the terminal but not the app drawer [14:07] hi all, is openssh server v7 available in ubuntu repositories [14:07] ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [14:07] pitastrudl: Although it is also true that Dropbox is a little weird. Its package installs a helper app, and sometimes it has its own internal update process that isn't through apt-get [14:07] o [14:07] pitastrudl: try a relogin. the service should run in background after successfull install [14:07] it says drobox requeres nautils to be restarted to fucntion properly [14:07] hm [14:08] relogin [14:08] pitastrudl: yeah, easiest thing there is to log out and log in; that should restart nautilus and load some other stuff [14:08] ok [14:08] relogin in dropbox or OS? [14:09] hi ALL [14:09] pitastrudl: relogin from the ubuntu [14:09] ok [14:09] PsciCOdeliXHAt: k1l_ runit.postinst only returns 1 when there's an existing "SV" entry in "/etc/inittab" - however, it should display a 5-line error on stderr in that case [14:09] what [14:10] TJ-: did not understand [14:10] lol it didnt want to log out so i just shut it down [14:10] TJ-: Sorry I'm a bit ignorant of terms when it comes to governors -- what's best thing to cat to give you an answer there? [14:11] MoPac: now you're making me think! give me a mo! [14:12] PsciCOdeliXHAt: k1l_ Although, runit.preinst has its last command as "ln /sbin/runit /sbin/runit.old" which if that fails would return 1, and that would be passed on as the exit code of the preinst script... so check if "/sbin/runit.old" exists [14:12] TJ-: probably apropos of nothing, but it looks weird as a noob to see that my /sys/power/state is 'freeze mem disk' [14:14] MoPac k1l_ works now [14:14] and how much time will ubuntu take to make openssh v7 available in repositories . . [14:14] after a restart [14:14] pitastrudl: cool. Yeah, I don't think I experienced what you did, but Dropbox does have a quirky model in terms of how it manages, installs, and updates itself [14:15] okay [14:15] so how does it update? automaticly or do i have to do it manually [14:15] MoPac: "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor" [14:15] pitastrudl: and it's also quite integrated with nautilus. So one thing to check now -- if you right click a file in Nautilus, do you see Dropbox menu options? [14:15] yes [14:15] daym thats good [14:16] windows pls, where is that feature [14:17] ty MoPac k1l_ [14:17] pitastrudl: since it did add a PPA it doesn now get the updates via the system updates [14:17] okay [14:17] pitastrudl: I don't think you have to do anything in particular, especially if you have a dropbox PPA your /etc/apt/sources.list.d . If memory serves, the Dropbox app itself occasionally says it wants to update itself (I think it's been a while since that happened, but it does happen automagically). And if they want to push something through the normal linux-y update channel, they will push it === bcc is now known as bcc`` [14:17] ...to their repo, and your apt-get upgrade will get it [14:17] cool [14:18] thanks for the help [14:18] tj the same erro... [14:18] Psci ... geez, can you make your nick simpler? === bcc`` is now known as bcc [14:19] TJ-: ahhh okay, that's just "performance" . Sorry, I thought it was more complicated than that. "Performance" and "powersave" are the only two available for me. [14:20] How can I enable compiz composition on gnome fallback? [14:20] TJ-: man, the .old exist. [14:20] still not working [14:20] TJ-: I switch between them manually when I want using the cpufreq-indicator or cpupower-indicator or whatever it's called. Regardless of what I set it on: (a) it always sets itself to "powersave" about a minute after startup, and (b) it always gets stuck at a low idle freq after resume until I go to the indicator and select whichever governor it's *not* currently on, then it functions normally [14:22] TJ-: So because I usually want performance, I have to remember on every boot to wait a minute and then go choose that manually. And then whenever I resume, I have to remember to go to the indicator and, if it was on performance during suspend, toggle over to "powersave" and then back to "performance" [14:23] Hi all my name is Alena I`m 10 yo, I`m newbe in ubuntu [14:23] alena, welcome [14:23] Hello [14:24] TJ-: but to be clear, the reverse is also true after suspend (bug appears regardless of the governor that was active when going into suspend), and the problem clears up as soon as I choose the other governor...I don't have to change governor and then change back in order for the frequency management to start working again [14:24] hello alena. do you have a question?

[14:58] hello? === Tyras is now known as Tyras[Away] [14:59] CoolApps, so what is your issue? writing your partitions? [14:59] Tried using disk-repair (USB) and the partitions look fine. I made it so that I have quite a lot of space for the Ubuntu Server install (unallocated). Already have the swap partition set up. [15:00] OerHeks: That does seem to be the case. gparted seems to have no issues modifying any of the tables. [15:01] * OerHeks waiting for the actual issue [15:01] As you can see in the imgur link, I don't really have an option to store Ubuntu Server into the unallocated space or even an option to manage the tables. [15:03] CoolApps: what about you "configure the iScsi volumes"? [15:04] or the last one "Finnish ... " [15:04] Isn't that to do with selecting servers? [15:04] oops forgot the mention part. [15:04] @CoolApps: Maybe Ubuntu Server don't support MBR based tables anymore? Can't imagine this could be the issue, just an idea [15:05] CoolApps: what setup is that? [15:05] timmtheusglo: no it still is fine with MBR [15:05] The PC I'm using uses UEFI only (it sucks, I know). [15:07] It isn't using a HDD or a SDD. It's using some other storage device (not sure what it's called now). Normal Ubuntu and LUbuntu are able to install just fine. [15:07] CoolApps: what happens if you select "configure iscsi volumes"? [15:07] CoolApps: since you said yourself it doesnt have a hdd [15:08] well, when I remove the micro SD card (to deal with the FakeRAID issue) and after using fsck with the partition holding the efi files (so that GRUB2 can install). [15:09] Ubuntu Server only supports HDD/SSD/Hybrid drives? [15:10] CoolApps: are you interested in answering questions to help you? [15:11] k1l_: I'm guessing you're implying for me to find out myself. [15:12] CoolApps: i asked some questions. but didnt really get an answer. so i dont know how to help you now. [15:13] how can i get rid of the noisy background when i use my mic ?? [15:13] fefe, more details please [15:14] fefe: tell the kids to be quiet? [15:14] k1l_: Oh. Right. The storage type is 'eMMC'. Slow, I know, but I'm just trying to find a good enough use for this thing. [15:15] cfhowlett ; when i record my voice , i can hear a very noisy background , though it's quite in my room here ? [15:16] fefe, this is your laptop mic? [15:16] fefe: a bit of static noise? [15:16] Need some help, trying to send some commands into tmux and I keep getting the syntax wrong. I need to send Ctrl-a & then Shift-I. [15:16] cfhowlett : yes [15:16] I have tried tmux send-keys C-a & tmux send-keys ^I but it does not work [15:16] Is BleachBit generally a recommended program on Ubuntu? 14.04 LTS to be precise. [15:17] any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, trying to auto install some plugins via tmux plugin manager, but it has to be initiated from two keyboard commands. [15:17] fefe, that's your biggest problem. your laptop fan = noise. anyway ... install audacity. sample a section of noise only. delete that from the overall track. [15:18] !info bleachbit [15:18] bleachbit (source: bleachbit): delete unnecessary files from the system. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6-1 (vivid), package size 255 kB, installed size 1965 kB [15:18] cfhowlett ; can that fix the problem when i use VOIP as well ? [15:19] fefe, nope. best bet: external mic / headset. they're cheap. [15:20] how can i transfer a file to a specific location on my ssh serveR? [15:20] how can i check from the terminal if i have an external mic connected , because i have several ones here and am not sure if they work ? [15:20] Dopie scp [15:20] dopie: you can use scp command [15:20] fefe, terminal? why not gui? [15:20] thank you [15:21] fefe , try unplugging the supply when you try again, to see if the charger/supply is the noise source. [15:24] Sleep time... zzz [15:25] Hi all, I have a 16GB USB-stick that I'd like to make as my bootable device on a laptop. The laptop has no other storage device. I've booted into "try ubuntu without installing". Can I now install Ubuntu on the USB-stick so it won't ask me every time or how do I continue? [15:25] I can start nginx with `sudo service nginx start`, how do I have nginx run on startup? `sudo update-rc.d nginx defaults` doesn't seem to do it, I have to manually start it again [15:26] quit [15:27] lilwiz, no, you will need a 2nd usb device to do that [15:27] I have a second USB, same make and model [15:28] !persistence | lilwiz, you can install with persistence [15:28] lilwiz, you can install with persistence: To have some persistent storage when using a Live CD, follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence [15:28] Yeah, I have 4GB (maximum on FAT32) as persistence but won't it still ask me everytime I boot if I want to try Ubuntu? [15:29] I sort of want to use the USB-stick as my bootable storage device and boot straight into desktop. [15:29] Persistence would not skip the question try/install [15:29] lilwiz, yeah, those 2 seconds to click "no" ... [15:29] cfhowlett, So you are telling me it's not possible to install Ubuntu on a USB-stick without "trying ubuntu" on every start up? [15:30] that is my understanding [15:30] Ah that's a bummer. [15:30] lilwiz, wrong, fat32 can go up to 32 gb volume, but FILESIZE is 4 gb [15:30] OerHeks, you are correct, sorry I was too quick to type there :) [15:31] so the ppa for profile-sync-daemon does not work for 14.04 [15:31] how do i get it then? [15:31] build from git? === esde is now known as esde1 [15:33] grubles, yes, or upgrade to vivid [15:34] dont want vivid. guess ill grab it from github.

[15:43] trying to make VIM pretty but having trouble. can only get to 256 [15:44] it's purple [15:44] nevermind [15:45] rofl [15:45] i ended up doing the inverse [15:45] :D [15:45] with scope [15:45] scp [15:45] what I'm trying to do is copy the directory /foo to this.server.loctation:bla/bleep/bloop [15:49] dopie: scp -r foo user@server:/absolute/path/ [15:51] Seriously does anyone use Tmux in here? [15:52] gbit86__: yes. [15:52] I would love to know what the proper syntax is to send a shortcut key via a shell script [15:52] sudo tmux send-keys C-a is what I am trying to send [15:52] gbit86__: didn't tmux use ctrl+b not ctrl+a? [15:52] along with Shift I, but it has not worked for me so far [15:52] I already remapped it to Ctrl A but yes, that is the default [15:53] maybe the send-keys uses the default? [15:53] hmm... the bind rules do not apply. perhaps [15:55] What can i do here? [15:55] still: ask support question about ubuntu [15:56] Thank. Good. [15:57] Who answers the questions ? Developers or users? [15:57] Both. [15:57] still: volunteer users [15:59] Bit of an odd problem: apt-get update on 14.04.3 LTS is requesting /dists/trusty-//binary-/Packages, and is getting 404 errors. Upon further inspection, mirrors appear to contain Packages.gz and Packages.bz2 in these directories, but nothing just named Packages. How can I correct this behavior in apt? [15:59] gbit86__: it looks like send-keys needs the key name as defined by the tmux key-bindings list. So if you want to send ^I, you need to send M-I [16:00] gbit86__: You shouldn't need to send the prefix key. [16:00] Oh, M-I, never tried it that way [16:00] and was not aware of that [16:00] thanks pici! [16:03] hi [16:03] old Core-M cpu laptop, 12.04, can I upgrade just like that to 14.04? heard about some missing feature in core-m, not sure if affected [16:06] How can i enable text mode in GRUB? Ubuntu Mate 15.03. [16:06] !text | still [16:06] still: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode [16:08] How can i do permanently?

But graph mode enabled. [16:19] still: add text to it [16:19] Thank. [16:19] still did you add 'text' ? [16:19] now reboot. [16:19] ok [16:21] still: I think what you are asking is how to disable GRUB from writing to the display in graphics mode, not how to boot to a virtual terminal without the graphical user interface - am I correct? [16:21] grrr, gorn too soon! [16:22] i think he wanted no gui, but he's confused about the grub variables [16:23] Very good. Thank. Its work. [16:24] still to restart gui sudo service lightdm start , or gdm [16:28] On ubuntu unity I used to be able to run the Alt+F2 and then "unity", which would restart unity without logging out/crashing all aplications.

[16:42] lilwiz, let ubuntu do the partitioning, or take a read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DiskSpace [16:42] lilwiz: I'd do swap equal to ram and the rest for /, like anything else [16:42] samfreenode: and you think that's good? :p [16:42] you have to install drivers on Windows anyway [16:43] you can't compare preinstalled systems and ones you install yourself, there is no comparison [16:43] drivers have to be installed, always [16:43] Alright. Thanks guys! [16:43] artois: Latest graphics drivers>old graphics drivers [16:43] lilwiz: also, you can skip the journal for ext4 [16:44] lilwiz: might speed things up a tad [16:44] samfreenode: was never a problem installing the latest [16:45] you have to do the same thing on Windows: find an installer and run it [16:45] !OT [16:45] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[17:28] Matt_teni: Yep [17:29] i seem to be missing /etc/xorg.conf [17:36] does the ubuntu version of firefox have EME? [17:36] coelebs: Why is that? Was there one to begin with? [17:36] no [17:37] coelebs: Then most likely it isn't needed [17:37] TJ-: okay what's next [17:38] * pbx googles EME [17:39] Meerkat, i think only Chrome is valid for EME Encrypted Media Extension [17:40] coelebs: Start with the logs under "/var/log/lightdm/", and also "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" and "$HOME/.xsession-errors" [17:41] thanks TJ- [17:41] Meerkat, allegedly this link has info but it's not responding for me at the moment: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=1015800&hide_resolved=0 [17:42] OerHeks, the firefox 38 changelog says that EME is added and that Adobe CDM will auto-download.

I guess I'll stick with firefox and upgrade to 38 or wherever it is at now [17:51] thanks for the links. I don't wanna be that guy but I hope the implementation fails. [17:51] =) [17:52] or atleast a separate package that firefox doesn't depend upon.

The thing is not to lose dowloaded or install packages required [18:23] for next time [18:24] linocisco: then I would do what squinty said with aptoncd, otherwise if you would doing a few different servers you could use something like squid-deb-proxy [18:25] squinty, i heard about aptonCD but when I wanted it again to install or use that , how can I point in repository? i was never ok with that. simply typing apt-get install resulted errors before === maciek_ is now known as Guest3813 [18:25] ls [18:25] oops [18:29] linocisco, check at http://packages.ubuntu.com/ to see if available for your release. === lahwran is now known as lahwran_ === lahwran_ is now known as lahwran [18:32] I want to have a ubuntu minimal CD based system in a virtualbox to run dwm and firefox.

Do you know what the mini can do and the exact end goal? [18:42] dwm though startx should be fine, why the tty1 to a auto login in? [18:43] how to configure wifi in wpa_supplicant file [18:46] how to set up wifi networking in ubuntu using wlan0 [18:47] wileee: Normal boot startup: boot, present user with a login prompt, sign in, see shall prompt, type startx [18:47] hi - quick question. Is Ubuntu 15.04 considered 'stable'? [18:47] wileee: What I want (in a virtualbox so it is OK to do): boot, sutologin as user and execut startx. [18:47] Bashing-om, hi [18:48] hmm x-lite does not run on linux [18:48] My reason for asking is that looking at Ubuntu's EC2 AMI page (here: http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/locator/ec2/) [18:48] 15.05 is listed as 'DEVEL'. [18:48] I don't want to type anything I just want to start the virtual machine and I'm logged in as my user with x started [18:48] 15.04 that is [18:48] sukima, This a model you are trying to copy, an assignment for school, why is the 3rd question, and fourth what of this do you know already? [18:48] tats: Heym hey ! Did ya get VLC installed ? [18:48] The Ubuntu OS is just needed so firefox will run. I just want firefox in a VM [18:49] Is that just an oversight, that it's still labelled 'DEVEL' there? [18:49] Bashing-om, nope... was offline yesterday, getting back on trying to figure this thing out and was wondering if any genius idea came to your mind [18:49] wileee: Huh? where did school come into play. [18:49] I'm there! [18:49] nettlejam: have you considered asking them? [18:49] Asking who? [18:50] Hi from Elementary OS [18:50] sukima, Just a question, looks like a class assignment honestly, not saying it is. [18:50] 13:48 My reason for asking is that looking at Ubuntu's EC2 AMI page (here: http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/locator/ec2/) asking them why they have labeled like devel? [18:50] No I know of no class assignment to run firefox in an VM. === needhelp is now known as Guest35952 [18:51] Look I can download a firefox app but it runs in a host environment. So viruses downloaded go right into my host computer. but if I ru it in a VM then it downloads to the VM harddrive [18:51] You can snap shot it and revert all you want. [18:51] *Drinking Vodka* [18:51] xangua - ah, I guess I doubted i would get an answer by emailing Canonical about it... so i came thinking there woudl be some knowlegable people [18:51] Hello Guys, maybe who knows. I want deny file from access from anyone, how i can do it at apache2? [18:51] So I want a VM that when you turn it on you have firefox. Done. Best OS to support that is Ubuntu. But if it is one app why the unity and 3 GB worth of stuff? [18:52] hello folks [18:52] And how i can see what apche version at ubuntu? [18:52] tats: All I think of with that set of libraries makes me consider if we do "this" will break the system in ways I do not know how to recover from . But if ya want to try and recover from breakage I do have a couple of ideas . Mind ya the danger is there ! [18:52] So MinimalCD, apt-get install X and firefox and a simplistic window manager (dwm) [18:52] I bought a microsoft designer mouse which was not usable in ubuntu. So i followed this:http://askubuntu.com/questions/574268/microsoft-arc-touch-mouse-doesnt-working-on-ubuntu-14-04 [18:52] Not I have to type my username and password each time. that's silly [18:52] Bashing-om, at this point it's worth trying. i'll just reinstall if it fails. [18:53] now I cannot remove this bluez package and the old is not present anymore, apt is angry and my bluethooth stack is brocken [18:53] How is that even remotly related to s school project. And if so what school does that because I've never had that level of tech in my classes [18:53] can anybody give me a hint please, how I can resove this issue :-( [18:53] sukima, Don't fixate on an honest question. [18:54] Bashing-om, i will pastebin a bunch of information first to summarize the problem. gimme a sec. [18:54] How i can see what apache version i have installed on ubuntu 14.04? [18:54] wileee: sorry, typically in IRC the "school project" is a dismissive response. As an aside I was actually curious if there were schools who have such assignments because I would rather go to those. [18:55] squinty, hi what i mean is after getting all in one installed packages iso using APTonCD on flash drive, how can I reuse or redeploy it on newly installed ubuntu server? [18:55] xangua - heh, and their support pages suggest IRC :P [18:55] So Ubuntu does not have a way to auto login to a TTY? [18:55] s/Ubuntu/Ubuntu 15 [18:55] tats: OK, I did not keep my notes on this, so we start again so I get the correct file/library we are working with -> ' sudo apt-get install vlc ' in a pastebin and we work toward that particular library .

[19:04] Bashing-om, yes, exact same result [19:04] I don't get it. why aren't log files stored somewhere that's not dependent on the program? why can I never avoid these mistakes? backups I've never been able to figure out. I mean if you want backups with privacy you need storage space which means another hundred dollars for a HD because HDs never get cheaper, they only get bigger.

Or what we must do to force the install . === tao is now known as Guest2377 [19:08] Bashing-om, i ran it in --simulate mode here's the output: http://pastebin.com/tnSxuVyW [19:09] anyone familliar with setting up source control? === dscamp is now known as dc_linux_rulz [19:10] Hi all m8 === dc_linux_rulz is now known as dvorak_rulz [19:10] Hellow. How can i rusificate console in Ubuntu 15.03? [19:10] still,hey comrad! [19:11] all of this botnets ? :i [19:11] heinvd, source control, as in VCS ( Git, SVN, etc ) or there? [19:11] Jesusss... aaaa hellow. [19:11] SVN [19:12] still,:D [19:12] I have it set up, but what I need is for the files updated to auto-update on my dev server [19:12] GET REKT [19:12] tats: Look'n at http://pastebin.com/tnSxuVyW . [19:12] when I am happy, I will then need to send some command to push latest svn version to live [19:13] heinvd, So in essence, you have (2) repo's and want to sync, say a dev repo to a live repo ? [19:14] Jesusss: This channel is for Ubuntu support discussion only, please take other discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic. [19:14] ki7mt, that is it. [19:15] my svn server is not the same server as my web server though [19:16] heinvd, It's not an answer that can be easily explained here, as there's several steps involved, but look into svnadmin dump and svnsync [19:16] Jordan,so I leave because it's too bored for me.Bye M8,i'll be back [19:16] thank you ki7mt. I will check into those. [19:16] heinvd, fabric (fabfile.org) is a tool people use for that sort of automation. sounds like you want to 1. push to origin 2. update live checkout on server 3. restart services on server. very doable === dvorak_rulz is now known as dscamp === sergio_ is now known as Guest25077 [19:17] thanks pbx, will check that one out as well. [19:17] as you think and ask about this heinvd, make sure you are clear about the difference between a repo and a checkout. with git and mercurial they are basically the same thing but not so with svn. [19:18] tats: Yikes ! Now you see why it scares the pee-waddling stuff out of me .. Let's take another gentle poke at it ' sudo apt-get purge -s libglapi-mesa ' (-s to "simulate")// on the good side, looks like the system will re-install all it removes - only on a cursory glance - . [19:19] It also depends on when the sync occurs, a post commit hook could do it easily, but, that is every commit, not when a user wants to simply sync the two repo's [19:19] Bashing-om, http://pastebin.com/aZCk8xfk [19:20] pbx, thanks, yes. The way I understand it, is: I have a dev repo and a live repo. I update to dev repo, that in turn should auto commit to my dev web server. Then, when I am happy with the changes, I want to commit to my live repo, that in turn autocommits to my live web server. [19:20] Hey guys! Im new to elementary os and i need your help. recently ive tried to fix my fans...running better and ive installed ls - sensors and fancontrol. Configuration of fancontrol is done. [19:20] But once i wanna start the service fancontrol ... the following error appears: Not starting fancontrol, broken configuration file; please re-run pwmconfig. [19:21] Bashing-om, i just wanna know if i understand the situation correctly. my understanding is that 10.5.2-0ubuntu1 is the "base" repo but somehow i got all these packages from the "10.5.9-2ubuntu1~vivid1" (pbly through installing some ppas, maybe mapmap). and vlc needs the libraries from base. [19:22] dimitri, try joinin #elementaryos .. this us Ubuntu support. [19:23] tats: We had so many PPAs it is not possible now to say where the elevated libraries came from. All I can advise is to get the correct supported versions of the libraries installed .// look'n at http://pastebin.com/aZCk8xfk . [19:24] ki7mt, but linux is linux. do you have any clue? [19:25] dimitri, THere is ##linux for general linux, you have to be registered with freenode [19:26] @dimitri - I am sure windows is also based on linux.... Mac runs on linux too... this is Ubuntu... ;) (just my 2 cents...) [19:26] tats: OK, memory jogged. Back to the QT5 development stuff... Fumbling around in the dark here . Anything left of mapmap ? ' dpkg -l mampmap ' IF the package manager even has any hint of the existence of the package . [19:27] Guys, thanks for your guidance... I will be doing lots of further reading tonight. [19:27] lol @ linux is linux [19:28] Bashing-om, rc mapmap 0.2.0-4~trusty~ppa1 amd64 video mapping software [19:28] Quick packaging question. I received a security update in my update manager, but the changelog only shows that a driver for a device I don't care about or have has been added. There's no reference to any security changes, CVEs, or USNs. What's up with that? [19:28] Linux, for the purest, is simply the kernel ;-), but I aint gonna get into that rabbit hole :-) [19:28] The change is for the package linux-firmware from 1.127.14 to 1.127.15. [19:29] hexafraction, could be firmware for supporting one of your devices ie wireless [19:30] !info linux-firmware trusty [19:30] linux-firmware (source: linux-firmware): Firmware for Linux kernel drivers. In component main, is optional. Version 1.127.14 (trusty), package size 23187 kB, installed size 77383 kB [19:30] hexafraction, likely you have it installed, it is standard [19:30] OerHeks: I understand. That's not my question. [19:30] does anybody know how to fix an error message on booting, before graphic environment start: "Welcome to emergency mode! After logging in, type (...) or "D" to try again to boot into default mode." ? [19:30] My question is why it might have gotten marked as a security update if there's no security update listed in the changelog (if I'm reading it correctly). [19:30] until CTRL + D is pressed, (K)Ubuntu won't start finally [19:31] tats: Yuk. Thought it was gone gone ( mapmap) [ "rc" says (R)emoved but (C)onfig files remain ]. Let's make sure that PPA are all disabled . ' cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list , tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ' . [19:31] Hey guys! i need your help. recently ive tried to fix my fans...running better and ive installed ls - sensors and fancontrol. Configuration of fancontrol is done. [19:31] hexafraction, see the changelog https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/1.127.15 [19:31] But once i wanna start the service fancontrol ... the following error appears: Not starting fancontrol, broken configuration file; please re-run pwmconfig [19:32] OerHeks: Ah, I never followed the LP bug link. [19:33] dimitry >> #elementaryos [19:33] dimitri, Just a heads up, we all know your OS, it is not supported here is all, no one will help you, it is your time spent. ;) [19:33] elementary has its own issues [19:33] Bashing-om, http://pastebin.com/8Saqvv9G [19:33] tats: checking http://pastebin.com/8Saqvv9G . [19:34] wileee, dude you could just tell me then some UBUNTU based advices instead of letting me wanna change back to windows [19:34] ari-tczew, might want to ask in #kubuntu [19:35] dimitri: you could try re-running pwmconfig [19:35] dimitri, I'm nicely informing you, it is a channel rule, is all [19:35] tgm4883, have tried that 2 times. [19:36] wileee, then join elementary os and help me there... or per PM [19:36] also, why would we want to possibly waste our time giving you ubuntu based advice when it could be something funky elementary is doing? [19:36] yeah right, lol [19:37] could someone tell me why this rule does not allow dns queries on ubuntu 14.04? [19:37] :INPUT ACCEPT [0:0] [19:37] :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0] [19:37] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [39:19724] [19:37] -A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT [19:37] -A INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable [19:37] dimitri: you could always just install Ubuntu ;) [19:38] tgm4883, i guess ill get the same error there... [19:38] yes, then use the package fancontrol to deal with it, but I've no idea what the controls are in EOS. [19:38] dimitri: it's possible, it's also possible that it will work fine [19:40] tats: "http://ppa.launchpad.net/sunab/kdenlive-release/ubuntu " still active as 'trusty' ; disable it and make a note to update to 'vivid' as vivid does support it .// another to follow . [19:41] tgm4883, it seems like i even cant change to /etc/fancontrol [19:42] tgm4883, like its not a directory [19:42] dimitri: is it a.... file? [19:43] tats: " deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/videolan/master-daily/ubuntu vivid main " Is this the cilprit ? What is videolan ? [19:43] If it is, it's in the wrong place, and should not be in /etc [19:43] tgm4883, idk xD in etc/fancontrol/ should be a conf file [19:43] culprit * [19:43] dimitri: weird, sounds like Elementary OS is doing something funky there... [19:43] Bashing-om: videolan is the site to get VLC [19:44] the binary should probably be in /usr/sbin/fancontrol . and the init.d in /etc/init.d/fancontrol === InspectorCluseau is now known as BlindMellonChitl === BlindMellonChitl is now known as BlindMellon [19:45] dimitri, This is why we dont support other OS's, and you should discuss in EOS channel. [19:45] dimitri: Please grab a LiveCD/USB of Ubuntu 15.04 and come back for help when you're actually using Ubuntu (even if only from the LiveCD, before installing). The next question you ask about Elementary OS here will result in a one hour mute. [19:46] Bashing-om, videolan is a ppa i tried to install as a fix to the problem i had when trying to install vlc. it might be it. the debs have been commented out, the uncommented one is from the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/videolan-ubuntu-master-daily-vivid.list.save file [19:48] Jordan_U, dude i just dont get why u cant say what it could be. even sth like check this out check that out should help. If a Windows 8 User asks me something , i - a windows 7 user - will try to help him... cause of the fk same base [19:49] I still haven't figured out the appeal of Elementary. Isn't it just Ubuntu with a fancy DE? === SoundAxis is now known as SoundAxisbsd [19:49] dimitri: If you'd like to discuss why we have this rule I'd be happy to do so in #ubuntu-ops or #ubuntu-offtopic, but not here. You now know the rule, please follow it. [19:50] i mean in elementary os channel are only a few people...and im new to linux...i dont wait for a 100 % way to solve it , just a basic step [19:50] dimitri: Try ##linux, I guess? [19:50] LambdaComplex, will they tell me the same to shut the fuck up? [19:51] dimitri: Nope [19:51] Channel list please# [19:51] I've been seeing a lot of this lately... " Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages..." https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/7dce7c281ab6a490c36a can someone tell me what's up? [19:51] !alis | dima_ [19:51] dima_: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" . For more help or questions relating to alis, please join #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* [19:51] dimitri: Such language and attitude is not appropriate here either. Please come back in one hour after you have hopefully cooled off a bit and booted from Ubuntu proper. [19:52] Can you install packages when running from a LiveCD? [19:53] LambdaComplex, From a chroot yes, if you mean to an install, live will not save added to it if a disk [19:53] tats: Humm .. maybe we can ppa-purge videolan ? Be aware ppa-purge only works if the corresponding package is in our software repository . [19:53] wileee: I know it won't be persistent, but can you at least install? [19:53] LambdaComplex: Yes. The only limitation is the amount of RAM you have, as any changes you make to the system while in the Live environment are stored in RAM (and swap) only. [19:53] LambdaComplex, Yeah [19:54] LambdaComplex, YOu want to go to software & sources and untick the disk and do an update is all [19:54] Perhaps I should suggest to dimitri that he tries it from an Ubuntu LiveCD. If it worked there, it'd clearly be an Elementary issue. [19:55] I would not touch it with a 100 ft pole [19:55] Bashing-om, it yields "Warning: Could not find package list for PPA: videolan stable-daily" [19:55] wileee: Touch what? Elementary? [19:55] no support at all from this channel [19:56] LambdaComplex: I have had discrepancies between live CD and full install behavior on the very first day, in regard to hardware working or not. Might not apply here, just saying. [19:56] let it go, the mods have taken care of the issue [19:56] hexafraction: Extra drivers on the LiveCD, maybe? [19:56] hexafraction: yeah have heard of this happening to people (have had it happen myself with wireless drivers but think it was 12.04 at the time) [19:56] tats: Next up, did the author of videolan provide a UNinstall script, or directions to remove it ? [19:57] wafflejock: Wireless for myself as well. [19:59] Bashing-om, not that i know of [20:00] I've been seeing a lot of this lately... " Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages..." https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/7dce7c281ab6a490c36a can someone tell me what's up? [20:02] Why doesn't ubiquity install extra drivers that end up on the CD but not on an installation by default, if it sees the module is loaded? [20:02] mustmodify, Pastbin an apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade [20:03] why do a dist upgrade? [20:04] Theres only 2 pkg deps for the whois package libc6 which is on about everythign and the intl package. [20:04] Bashing-om, should i re-add the ppa and ppa-purge it? would that uninstall the stuff? [20:04] ki7mt, Did not say to accept it, just there are kernels in the error, trying to see whats in these commands [20:05] wileee: gist updated https://gist.github.com/mustmodify/7dce7c281ab6a490c36a [20:06] mustmodify, What is after thew last line you show on the update, any there? [20:06] tats: I have no idea then as to how to remove it from the system . I do think that it is a likely cause of the elevated library versions . [20:06] the* === silva is now known as silvaplex [20:08] wileee: nope. Last line is "reading package lists... Done" then the prompt. [20:08] mustmodify, Thanks, not sure here, just a general check is all. [20:08] sure [20:09] tats: The videolan PPA is still active. ( each time we update the system, any change we may have made gets over ridden ). Dealing with an UNsupported PPA is not in my experience . I can access the site - like you - and see what I can learn . [20:10] wileee, the problem is, most likely, the out dataed kernel, apt-get wont let you update or modify the. Possible solution, remove the old kernels, then update && upgrade.

[20:16] err iso downloads mustmodify [20:16] Oh. What's a "recent" kernel? [20:16] I have used rm command , but did not work [20:17] mustmodify, I'm not your best source in this area for exact answer is all, others here can quite well. [20:17] ivan_on_trac, might want to try logging onto that address with your web browser. here it gets a redirect to hugedomains.com with a "for sale" message. maybe try switching servers [20:17] mustmodify, my 14.04 box is: 3.13.0-61-generic [20:18] But I also have from 0-24 through 0-59 on the system; I need to clean house a bit too :-) [20:18] tats: Well ! videolan is the upstream vlc . And as such and it is a supported PPA, we should be able to ppa-purge back to what is in our repository . What is the ppa-purge command you ran ? [20:20] Bashing-om, sudo ppa-purge ppa:videolan/master-daily [20:20] ki7mt: I'm using 3.13.0-58-generic [20:20] which seems pretty close.

I can find no fault with the ppa-purge command to remove it . Your last paste shows the PPA as an active one . [20:27] Bashing-om, notice that when i was in 14.04 i had this ppa installed: https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archive/ubuntu/trusty-media ; i was supposed to remove it before upgrading to 15.04 but i forgot. this might be what broke the system.

[20:29] Bashing-om, ok. sudo apt-add-repository ppa:videolan/master-daily ran. then ppa-purged it. [20:30] MonkeyDust: That's fine, I'm happy to upgrade. I just don't see how this could be related to my issue since my kernel's like less than a year old. [20:30] and somehow that's supposed to cause apt-get to stop working? [20:30] tats: I do trust completely mc3man . But I do not know his PPA or what it is for . So can not advise. [20:31] ivan_on_trac, might want to try the following to generate new lists. if no errors are reported after the update finishes, you should be good to go sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/ && sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/apt/lists/partial && sudo apt-get update [20:32] tats: As the PPA videolan ran. now remove the fetch from the sources list file . [20:33] hey [20:33] Bashing-om, results of ppa-purge : http://pastebin.com/m2nmcRGj [20:33] could you recommend me any online tutorials which could teach me some stuff about shell/command line?

We want to get your system's libraries in such a state that vlc will install . [20:46] Bashing-om, oh sorry i see i nee to do update, upgrade, dist-upgrade [20:47] HI [20:48] hi mar [20:48] tats: all 3 apt-get 's // the 'dist-uprafe' os a bit of a miss nomer . Has nothing to do with a release upgrade . Uses apt's smart mode to resolve dependenies and install packages that apt normally will not . [20:48] tats: you do not do both :) dist-upgrade bests upgrade [20:48] My sources: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6dulhwnk9rqrh1l/Sources?dl=0 [20:49] рш [20:49] рш [20:49] hi [20:49] !ru | smoke [20:49] daftykins, i see [20:49] smoke: Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke.

[20:54] any recommendations on how to use keepass on ubuntu w/ chrome? [20:54] currently im using it with keepasshttpx [20:55] have to reinstall coz it doesnt support the plugin fml [20:55] found this nifty guide http://maxolasersquad.blogspot.com/2013/10/install-keepasshttp-on-ubuntu.html [20:56] Jordan_U: But do you think the problem ".com"?

Also note that even if you weren't having any issues, using .com for a local domain is wrong, and will lead to other problems / confusion.

[20:59] I have to much capacity on my hosting server, so if anyone wants free hosting, mail, dns, mysql, cron with backup all from a web panel, just give me a priv message and Il hook you up [20:59] ivan_on_trac: That is, please run that command from the same machine where "apt-get update" is failing. === proq`` is now known as proq [21:00] Guest46149, unless you have a contract with explicit TOS, you are on the hook for anything anyone does using your hosting.

Was that the result of using wget from the same machine on which "sudo apt-get update" is failing though? [21:06] Jordan_U: runs without errors. [21:06] ivan_on_trac: What runs without errors? [21:07] Bashing-om, ok updates and upgrades done. apt-get install vlc yields the same error [21:08] Bashing-om, i'm afraid i have to go for about 2 hours. be back after. sorry about that. [21:10] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvsRRSaPltk [21:18] ivan_on_trac: What runs without errors? [21:20] Yes on the server itself where the mirror is. runs without errors. [21:21] ivan_on_trac: I'm still not completely clear. I didn't ask you to run wget on the server that is hosting the mirror, I asked you to run it on the server where "sudo apt-get update" is failing.

[21:27] crayon: Not with fuse specifically, but there are definitely security implications with some of the specific filesystems that fuse supports.

[23:27] i have allready chmod +x huion580.sh [23:27] surgy: no, well yes.. ./ means "in the current directory", but you've specified the full path, so it's unnecessary [23:27] surgy: why you puting " ./ " before a name of your script? [23:28] usr13 I am aware of what most of the options are, I'm asking what the quickest and most straight forward to setup in a console only environment is. [23:28] tgm4883, so i can just /home/surgy/Documents/scripts/huion580.sh ? [23:28] surgy: yes [23:28] yes [23:28] kadiro, because i wish to execute the script [23:28] surgy: yes but without a dot [23:28] surgy: As a server? (If it's console, why not just ssh?) [23:29] usr13, idk what your talking about :) [23:29] surgy: Sorry, wrong nick [23:29] loll [23:29] Bashing-om: tyvm [23:29] sorry [23:30] boze: :) [23:31] usr13, np :) [23:31] surgy: Sorry, wrong nick [23:31] it would include a bunch of things pre-installed and ready to go, like an email server, web mail, XMPP chat, nodeBB forums, Haste paste bin, Redmine, Lychee photo sharing, ownCloud document sharing, etc, etc. [23:31] fizk_: you could use something like http://www.zentyal.org/ [23:31] HI! [23:31] personally, I'd just set it all up myself though [23:31] ok thank you guys very very much [23:31] time to test the new script :) [23:32] good luck surgy [23:32] how is tell memory bad?? [23:32] retc9201: Let the memory test in the grub boot menu run over night . [23:33] that will fix?? [23:33] retc9201: no that will show [23:34] not fix? [23:34] no :/ [23:34] retc9201: ^ if it shows bad, the only fix is "replace" . [23:34] tgm4883, thanks, that's neat, but still too small [23:34] ok so i rebooted [23:34] OK. thx + peace [23:35] you welcome retc9201 [23:35] and i also tested the script and the script is still working...... but it did not automaticly start at reboot [23:35] fizk_: I know nothing that does everything you want [23:35] nor would I want that much running on one server [23:35] maybe docker or lxc containers for each [23:36] tgm4883, yeah, I figure most companies would do this piece by piece to match the features they're looking for, but if they wanted to be able to just launch a VPS and have a mini-enterprise ready to go, that would be interesting [23:36] fizk_: s/interesting/awful/ [23:37] tgm4883, yeah, it could be separated into containers for each, but comes pre-installed and ready for us [23:37] tgm4883, why awful? :) [23:37] fizk_: having all those services on a single box, VM or not - would be a mistake :) [23:37] daftykins, for security reasons, or something else? [23:37] this :: @reboot /home/surgy/Documents/scripts/huion580.sh did not autmaticly start my script on reboot...... what did i do wrong? [23:37] surgy: depend on the DE used, in lxde you add it in autostart and it will be startup in every boot [23:37] for logic and sanity reasons [23:37] kadiro: no, that would be the wrong way to do it [23:38] kadiro, its kubuntu 14.04 and i entered that into crontab -e [23:38] surgy: are you sure it didn't run the script and fail? [23:38] tgm4883: it work for me may be a different from a distribution to others [23:38] surgy: maybe have it echo something to a tmp file at the beginning of the script [23:38] daftykins, long term, yes, but short term, I think it'd be ok [23:39] kadiro: well the issue with the way you stated, is that it would only fire off when the user logs in, not at reboot [23:39] surgy: which version of ubuntu? [23:39] tgm4883, maybe crond isnt auto starting on boot? [23:39] tgm4883, kubuntu 14.04 lts kernal 3.19 [23:39] tgm4883: yes you right sorry i am confused [23:40] fizk_: regardless they are the kinds of things you have to reconfigure for a given company anyway, so nothing like that could be ready to go really [23:40] surgy: that should work, I believe I've done that on my 14.04 boxes [23:40] k1l_: i know about the error because i've experienced it before when i have had a monitor plugged in [23:40] tgm4883, only thing i can think is that crond isnt auto starting.... hwo do i double check to see if its set to start win kubuntu boots ? [23:42] daftykins, yeah, I probably shouldn't have said company. I'm thinking more like a small group of people that don't have the time to figure out how to setup all those softwares individually, but would love to use them if they were ready to go [23:42] tgm4883: is systemctl and systemd do a same job like crontab? [23:43] fizk_: still applies i'm afraid, as you'd have to do even the most basic of feeding such a VM / install what domain you have :) e.g. peoplesserver.com [23:43] fizk_: nobody is going to want to maintain that distro [23:43] kadiro: well you could do it via those [23:44] tgm4883, so now what? where do i go from here? if i did everything right and it didnt work? [23:44] surgy: have you tried to echo to a file at the top of that script? [23:44] tgm4883: good thk's for your help [23:44] * tgm4883 tries to remember which server he did that on [23:44] tgm4883, im just now learning scripting..... how would i do that? [23:44] daftykins, the basic things like domain name can be automated in a script [23:45] surgy: something like "echo 'TESTING' > /tmp/testfile" [23:45] daftykins, what is peoplesserver.com? I'm getting "The domain peoplesserver.com may be for sale." [23:45] fizk_: again, nobody is going to wait to maintain all the scripts required to do all that [23:46] fizk_: *sigh* that was my example [23:46] tgm4883, yeah, I hear you, maintaining all the software will be tough, but I think do-able [23:46] fizk_: regardless this is more discussion and belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic and not here where it's OS support :) [23:46] fizk_: possibly doable, but it's such a small amount of people that would use that it seems unnecessary [23:46] tgm4883, like this ? echo 'TEST' > /home/surgy/Documents/scripts/testfile [23:46] daftykins, ah ok [23:47] surgy: yea [23:47] tgm ok trying [23:47] surgy: This is mine "@reboot /root/start_lxc_machines.sh" [23:47] it's in my root crontab [23:48] j #ubuntu-offtopic === sync0new is now known as sync0pate [23:49] tgm4883, well it printed "test" in the test file... but it seams the commands im trying to issue in the script didnt work....... maybe i need a small delay so that the drivers have time to load? [23:50] surgy: can you post the script? [23:50] surgy: actually, do this [23:50] surgy: can you post your crontab line again [23:51] tgm4883: i think @reboot /home/surgy/Documents/scripts/huion580.sh [23:51] tgm4883, heres the script [23:51] picke!!!!!!!!!!!!! === k is now known as Guest98205 [23:51] drkate ga, jel? :D [23:52] tgm4883, here is the crontab line @reboot /home/surgy/Documents/scripts/huion580.sh [23:52] surgy: change your crontab line to this "@reboot /home/surgy/Documents/scripts/huion580.sh >> /home/surgy/Documents/scripts/cron.log 2>&1" [23:52] surgy: that will print the output of the script and any error messages to that cron.log file in your scripts directory [23:52] surgy: maybe we'll see something important [23:53] tgm ok let me save and reboot again [23:55] tgm4883, yo [23:55] yo yo [23:55] tgm4883, yeah its what i thought the script is trying to execute too early [23:55] tgm4883, i got three "unable to connect to X server" [23:55] surgy: what does the script do? [23:56] tgm4883, so maybe i need to run the script like 30 seconds after boot or something? [23:56] may be need a root prevelege i guess? [23:56] tgm4883, it restricts the cursor of my graphics tablet to one monitor [23:56] surgy: hmm [23:56] tgm4883, so the left side of the tablet is mapped to the left side of my right monitor [23:57] surgy: well, I would think that the correct way to do that would be making a systemd service that runs it after it detects the display is up, however the hacky way would be to put a sleep 30 at the top of your script [23:57] tgm4883, how? [23:58] surgy: it's a bash script? [23:58] tgm4883, whats the command for sleep 30 ? [23:58] im assuming so? [23:58] sleep 3000 [23:58] thank you [23:58] no [23:58] that would be 3000 seconds [23:58] ouups [23:58] literally just "sleep 30" [23:58] yes missed one zero [23:59] 30 sec? [23:59] http://ss64.com/bash/sleep.html [23:59] yes [23:59] surgy: "sleep 30" not "sleep 3000"
