[00:15] !raid OneM_Industries [00:16] raid | OneM_Industries [00:17] !raid | OneM_Industries [00:17] OneM_Industries: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [00:17] Hm, this looks fun. [00:18] How hard do you think this will be? Could a beginner do it? [00:18] OneM_Industries: bad idea :) [00:18] especially if you intend to have the OS installed to the RAID volume [00:19] surgy sleep 30s [00:19] i would say no no no no no [00:19] Bother. [00:19] Ok, I will just use this as a backup drive. [00:21] checkItOut: I think you're a bit behind [00:22] Oooh...I hate working on running boxes... [00:22] Especially when they are mine... [00:25] How do I use "kill" to kill a bash job that I see in "jobs"? [00:26] yo [00:27] surgy: ! [00:27] tgm4883, still didnt work even with delay [00:27] cliluw: kill [00:27] Unable to connect to X server [00:27] Unable to connect to X server [00:27] Unable to connect to X server [00:27] surgy: did you sleep for 30 seconds or 3000 seconds [00:27] tgm4883, but if i run the script from the terminal it works... [00:27] surgy: please don't paste here in future. [00:28] how can i refresh the ssh-agent and get it to recognize my ssh key and cache passcodes/etc [00:28] cliluw: jobs -l # get pid then kill it [00:28] surgy: can you pastebin your script? [00:28] tgm4883, http://www.pasteall.org/60430 [00:28] Odd, I cannot see the new drive. [00:28] I have run lsblk. [00:28] jamesd: That should come in handy. Thank you. [00:29] OneM_Industries: from what, a live session? "sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit" [00:29] surgy: you probably need to set display, something like "DISPLAY=:0" [00:30] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12066981/ [00:30] tgm4883, i dont understand? i dont have to set a display when i run the script in a terminal [00:30] tgm4883, if i opened a terminal right now and ran the script it would run with 0 errors [00:31] OneM_Industries: is the new one the 2TB /dev/sdc ? what do you want to do with it, mount it as backup then? [00:31] Yes. [00:31] OneM_Industries: "sudo blkid | pastebinit" [00:31] tgm4883, can i make crontab actually run the script after 30 seconds? instead of running the script first or would that make a difference? [00:31] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12066986/ [00:31] surgy: that wouldn't make a difference [00:32] OneM_Industries: that doesn't look right... [00:32] oh 'cause it's not partitioned [00:32] <--- idiot [00:32] Oh.... [00:32] OneM_Industries: so use gparted to create an ext4 partition on it first [00:32] That would do it. [00:32] :) we both had the same mistake [00:33] Thank you! [00:33] Also, oddly enough, this drive was cheaper at best buy than newegg. [00:33] By around $50. [00:33] wow [00:33] tgm4883, i dont understand why im getting these errors..... should i make the delay longer? [00:34] no u should not [00:34] surgy: how long does it take you to boot? [00:34] Gparted cannot see /dev/sdc [00:34] tgm4883, are we counting from grub? or from when the first "kubuntu" logo shows? [00:34] from grub [00:34] maybe 30 ish seconds [00:35] surgy: are you running Unity? [00:36] tgm4883, kde [00:37] tgm4883, kubuntu 14.04 [00:37] surgy: how many users are on this system, just you? [00:37] tgm4883, just me and good ol sudo [00:37] my sony tv has bad edid. the xorg log says DFP-1 contradicts itself. I exported an edid from a windows box and set up the lines in xorg.conf with the nvidia utility nvidia-xconfig --custom-edid, but it doesn't seem to register :/ [00:38] Any ideas for the type of partition table I should use? [00:38] surgy: I still think you need to set DISPLAY. Do this, switch to TTY1 (ctrl+alt+F1), login and try to run the script. You can get back to graphical land by doing Ctrl+Alt+F7 [00:39] boze: Try turning it off until you're into the graphical client. After that, turn the televinios on, and go into nvidia-settings (Leave it off during boot, I had this same malfunction occur) [00:39] boze: Television * [00:40] boze: read /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see why [00:40] daftykins: thanks [00:40] Televinios. Sounds Italian. [00:40] Halfwit: so, boot up with the tv off then turn it on? [00:40] It is electrically transported assorted wines, clearly. [00:40] daftykins: what kind of partition table do you think I should use? [00:40] boze: It can't hurt to try . [00:41] tgm4883, yeah i got the same error [00:41] surgy: ok, now add "export DISPLAY=:0" before the first xinput line and try again [00:41] tgm4883, i got the cannot conect to x server error in tty1 [00:41] OneM_Industries: msdos [00:42] so MBR standard [00:42] Ok....seems pretty outdated.. [00:42] tgm4883, is DISPLAY=:0 the correct screen ? i have two [00:42] OneM_Industries: Generally MBR if you're doing BIOS booting and GPT if you're doing UEFI [00:42] Nice nick. [00:42] HL1 reference? [00:43] LambdaComplex: ^ [00:43] surgy: probably [00:44] OneM_Industries: Yep! [00:44] Still can't see the drive. [00:44] Most people guess I really like lambda calculus. [00:45] tgm4883, worked in tty1 gonna check in a real reboot brb [00:46] Bashing-om, i'm back [00:47] LambdaComplex: Or Haskell. [00:47] Odd, I formatted the drive and put a partitioning table on it, and I still can't see it. [00:47] tgm4883, same error [00:47] tats: L; here we go again then . show 'sudo apt-get install vlc ' . [00:47] dang it [00:48] tgm4883, worked in tty1 though [00:48] Halfwit: I try to make a nerdy reference and all I get is out-nerded. [00:48] Bashing-om, here's the result of update + dist-upgrade: http://pastebin.com/S5Q4L3X4 [00:48] surgy: out of curiosity, lets add the script to your startup applications in KDE, rather than cron [00:48] tgm4883, im gonna give it a 60 second delay along with the display thing [00:48] tats: http://pastebin.com/S5Q4L3X4 . [00:48] Bashing-om, install vlc yields same error as before [00:49] tgm4883, and if that doesnt work ill try startup applications [00:49] ok [00:49] boze: Any successes? [00:49] Got it! [00:50] OneM_Industries: huzzah, so now just add it to /etc/fstab of course [00:50] Oh. [00:50] Fstab.d? === wook is now known as Guest85731 [00:51] Halfwit: naw :( I'm looking at the log. I see the line where it reads the xorg.conf it says Option "CustomEDID" "GPU-0.DFP-2:/etc/X11/sony_edid.txt" but there doesn't seem to be any rejection messages [00:51] just kinda reads it and doesn't do anything with it [00:51] OneM_Industries: no /etc/fstab [00:51] tgm4883, solved! [00:51] when i types it, i means it :D [00:51] surgy: nice [00:51] Got it, what next? [00:51] tgm4883, thank you very very much! [00:52] tgm4883, for the record i gave it a 60 second delay. it usually takes me a few minutes to get all of my graphics programs open and chat at ref images anyways [00:52] OneM_Industries: you created a mount point of /media/somethinghere and put that whole UUID entry into /etc/fstab already? [00:53] Uh. === sins-_o is now known as sins- [00:53] First time doing this, so hold on. [00:53] what did you mean by 'what next' then? what did you do with that file? [00:53] There are some interesting bits about the HorizSync and VertRefresh ranges O_o [00:54] I opened the file, not sure what to do next. [00:54] I like to think i'm capable at these things, but er ma gerd. this is a toughy [00:54] hi. I [00:55] Ok, made a file in /media/, now for /etc/fstab [00:55] tats: Not a good solution, but presently all I know to do is install the correct library and hope the system rebuilds . [00:55] OneM_Industries: so you can see where your / and any other partitions get mounted? you need to cursor to the bottom of the file and add a new entry for the new disk. the beginning will read "UUID=blah" which you get from sudo blkid, then you fill out the rest. pastebinit /etc/fstab if you need a hand. [00:55] OneM_Industries: folder, not file [00:55] Folder, I mean. [00:55] Bashing-om, sudo apt-get install libglapi-mesa=10.5.2-0ubuntu1 [00:55] hi. I'm trying to recover the grub bootloader. I did update-grub and after grub-install /dev/sda but doesn't work. Always I get the grub rescue bootloader [00:56] Bashing-om, ? [00:56] boze: Is this via the HDMI port, or are you plugging in to a VGA? [00:56] tats: Yeah. that looks like what I remember . [00:56] Halfwit: it's HDMI [00:56] augusto, The sda install from a live? [00:56] * surgy spreads peanut butter on a squirrel [00:57] boze: Yeah. My Sony TV was older, but through either VGA or HDMI, I never did get satisfactory results. [00:58] wileee, I installed from a live. Now, I'm using from the /dev/gpt10 [00:58] augusto, You install as legacy if a uefi windows model? [00:58] Halfwit: mines older too :p I'm on windows 7 for tv purposes cause windows media center, but I they discontinued that software [00:58] uefi mode [00:59] Halfwit: try'n to quit the windows habit completely [00:59] augusto, You don't put grub in the mbr on a uefi ubuntu install. === grubles is now known as Guest28724 [00:59] boze: I did so long ago. I'm now the resident tech expert to help others, though. You never really are free. [01:00] This look good, daftykins? UUID=51f9e54e-14d0-45b5-9128-0bb4fb6630f7 /media/william/HHDPART2 ext4 [01:00] ok. how can i put grub in the mbr ? -> update-grub -> grub-install /dev/sda ? [01:00] augusto, Hard to really tell what you have done. Start from the beginning with the install and what you've done, to the channel. [01:00] alguien de españa??? [01:01] un poco [01:01] hehehe. I did it several times [01:01] Bashing-om, what i don't get is that this will remove a lot of packages (including core ones like xserver-xorg) but it won't reinstall them. so should i take notes of the packages that will be removed in order to reinstall them after? [01:01] Halfwit: do you think buying a new TV would help or is ubuntu as an HTPC a non-starter? [01:01] hola Halfwit , te puedo preguntar algo??? [01:02] !es | uno1 [01:02] uno1: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. [01:02] boze: lots of people use Ubuntu as a HTPC [01:02] Halfwit: I anticipate headaches trying to use myth tv + xbmc [01:02] OneM_Industries: show me the edited file in a pastebin @ http://paste.ubuntu.com [01:02] boze: See, that's the thing though. XBMC through my Pi was flawless. [01:03] Halfwit: specifically scheduled tv recording [01:03] boze: It's like you watch TheTex. [01:03] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12067220/ [01:03] TheTek [01:03] gracias , :) ubottu [01:04] Halfwit: idk that one [01:04] boze: Just a YT channel. [01:04] tats: Will be a good idea, just in case we can not get to the log files , to take notes . [01:05] boze: There is DVR software for Linux [01:05] tgm4883: myth tv? [01:05] boze: yes [01:05] Read up. [01:05] tgm4883: thank you [01:06] tgm4883: I have edid woes to resolve :( [01:06] boze: there's even a ubuntu distro for that (Mythbuntu) [01:06] boze: can you not ignore the edid and manually configure it all? [01:07] Bashing-om, it's started. fingers crossed. [01:07] tgm4883: I've been trying, not with much luck. I like to find the problem when I'm debugging instead of trial and error and i'm clueless here [01:07] tgm4883: it's all greek [01:07] Hi. Just a general question: pkill -fe *eggdrop* would kill all processes matching that name, correct? [01:07] OneM_Industries: one sec [01:08] provided it's an exact match, yes [01:08] boze: With what I was saying before, there was no EDID configuring on my side. I simply open nvidia-settings, and profit. [01:08] join #debian [01:08] ops [01:08] hehe [01:08] or maybe i didn't know about using * in pkill :) [01:09] Halfwit: maybe i should just get a new tv :P === littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmerica [01:09] i always did something like : for i in $(pgrep -f eggdrop); do kill $i; done [01:09] i over paid though :( hard to part with it [01:09] blendax: So, if in "ps x" I see something like "./eggdrop botnick.conf" and if I use pkill -fe *eggdrop* this will kill all processes matching the name *eggdrop*? [01:09] Cognitive dissonance [01:09] OneM_Industries: i'd recommend changing that capital letter name and using something more conventional like this; http://paste.ubuntu.com/12067269/ - also note that ideally you tab between those values and not hit spaces like i did. [01:09] Bashing-om, done. === aqqw1 is now known as Qwerty [01:10] i'm actually not sure if you can use wildcards w/ pkill.. checking the google [01:10] the above snippet i posted will definitely get everything with 'eggdrop' in it === Qwerty is now known as Guest14026 [01:10] blendax: Cool, thank you. [01:10] np [01:10] Saved. [01:11] boze: For instance, my sony is well capable of 1080p. It isn't, however, capable of doing so via VGA. [01:11] OneM_Industries: so make sure that mount point exists, "sudo mkdir /media/william/backup" then type "sudo mount -a" - it should complete without errors. === Guest14026 is now known as aqqw1 === Blaster is now known as Guest91465 [01:12] Halfwit: I mean. I've been using this tv for years as an htpc in windows at 1080i. just no dice switching to ubuntu :( [01:12] boze: you just need to actually work on it rather than go on about it in here :) [01:13] daftykins: edid and modelines tinker tinker === Guest28724 is now known as grubles_ [01:13] daftykins: i'll stop ranting, i've been at this for weeks though :p === grubles_ is now known as Guest22025 [01:13] boze: i suspect your approach isn't quite right, or your modelines are bad. i've often heard of people taking an EDID from Windows and it failing to be useful [01:14] try generating one from scratch [01:14] OneM_Industries: you got a result on the above? i'd really like to dip out and get some food if so... [01:14] Yep, go ahead. [01:14] cool, won't be long regardless [01:15] Bashing-om, looks like it solved it? sudo apt-get install vlc --simulate: http://pastebin.com/fHGzqZUT [01:15] If I was keeping you from food, sorry! [01:15] OneM_Industries: nah more i am keeping me from food :D once mounted check your permissions with "ls -al /media/william/ | pastebinit" and share the link here === aqqw1 is now known as aqqw2 === Guest22025 is now known as buttsniff [01:17] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12067293/ === aqqw2 is now known as qwerty_ === qwerty_ is now known as mk === mk is now known as aqqw1 === aqqw1 is now known as [qwerty] === [qwerty] is now known as {qwerty} === SonikkuAmerica is now known as {Colemak} === {Colemak} is now known as SonikkuAmerica [01:31] OneM_Industries: ok so to finish up, you need to change it so it's writeable by your user (i.e. your user can write to that path) "sudo chown -R william: /media/william/backup" (where 'william' is your username and 'backup' or 'backups' is the path you mounted it to, i can't tell from there [01:32] ) [01:32] hi [01:32] tgm4883, hello :) [01:32] Thank you so much! [01:33] It works! [01:33] tgm4883, now that kubuntu is running exactly the way i want it to I would like to make a disk image of exactly how i have everything set up. including drivers and all of my settings. :) how do i go about doing this? [01:34] OneM_Industries: np :) [01:34] So, now to figure out how to schedule regular backups... [01:34] To the Google! [01:35] !backup [01:35] There are many ways to back your system up.

[01:47] Bashing-om, i think i *might* be more careful from now on concerning ppas... [01:47] Bashing-om, are there some general advices (aside from "don't install ppas!!!")?

[02:39] arooni-mobile, That ppa is a de upgrade of the gnome shell [02:39] i failed at life [02:39] unstable at that I believe [02:40] i didnt realize ppas were so nasty [02:41] i enabled it in software sources; ran a sudo apt-get update [02:41] and that doesnt seem to work [02:42] arooni-mobile, You have to know how to fix the issues they may make, none are really supported here, your on your own installing them. === hugegree_ is now known as hugegreenbug [02:42] well i will be way more careful [02:44] yay fixed it! i'll be way more careful going forward of adding random ppas [02:44] arooni-mobile, Many are easy to deal with, however a full desktop upgrade is not a good idea, I have 8 or 10 I use always, simple small additions I can fix. [02:44] sometimes it might be the only way to get something, but you have to bear in mind all must be removed before doing upgrades, for example [02:44] arooni-mobile: Look on the bright side, breaking the system, you learn the system putting the pieces back together . [02:44] how is version 3.10 > 3.6? i would think that 3.6 > 3.10 [02:45] ten is greater than six [02:45] ahhh [02:45] i thought it was version 3.1.0 [02:45] darn algebra [02:45] i tripped up on that kinda thing just the other day, it can be confusing [02:45] well there'd be a period there . if it were :) [02:46] well thats confusing. i think it should go 3.6,3.7,3.8,3.9.4.0 [02:46] not a 3.10 [02:46] welcome to FOSS [02:46] well i have no idea why they ripped out the desktop background feature in gnome-terminal i liked it [02:47] i mean you can select an image for the background of your terminal. i like having an image of stars from the Hubble telescope [02:47] seems like a regression to me [02:47] black is good [02:47] wouldnt you rather see stars? [02:47] if youre using the terminal all day [02:47] that's more a chat topic from both of you really - #ubuntu-offtopic :) [02:48] k. back to work; thanks folks [02:48] desktop background is stars [02:49] raytion: either ask a support question or move on please. [02:56] can someone help me upgrade ubuntu 13.10? apt-get update is throwing a ton of 404s for saucy security updates and backports repositories [02:56] arkore: That's because 13.10 is EOL, so the repositories have been archived and moved. Here's a link that'll tell you what you need to do to upgrade [02:56] !eol | arkore [02:56] arkore: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [02:56] Bashing-om, ok the install has completed. [02:57] change the sources.list [02:57] ? [02:57] Bashing-om, what to do to keep safe before the autoremove? [03:00] hey, can anyone tell me how well vt-D support is working on the most recent version of ubuntu? [03:03] tats: If it were me, I would p;ay with the system insure all my devices work and all my aps function . Then reboot and repeat that all works . Once back up get redirect the output of autoremove -s to a file .. inspect the file to see what it will remove . [03:03] play* [03:05] thx Flannel. [03:05] i've chosen to not upgrade, and do fresh install instead. but, i dont know what safest way to do it without screwing up my dual boot setup. [03:06] arkore, What is the other install? [03:06] windows [03:07] arkore, Windows what and is it a UEFI? [03:08] windows 7 x64, and i dont think its UEFI. its grub menu?

[03:16] Bashing-om, looks like it. it just says "The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required" with a list of packages === underd0g is now known as hide4 [03:17] tats: K; I guess, bite on the bullet .. and reboot . [03:17] Bashing-om, shutdown -r now [03:20] Bashing-om, everything looks fine === Blaster is now known as Guest84322 [03:22] tats: K' sudo apt-get -s autoremove > ~/checkit ' . See what all will be removed . [03:23] Bashing-om, http://pastebin.com/wwpV6Bby [03:24] Looking to use an egpu, but support topics seem scarce, so I am guessing not much has been developed (understandably). Does anyoneknow a good location to kind of understand the way xorg works? I am a programmer but new to some X concepts. [03:24] "egpu" ? [03:25] tats: I see nothing that scares me . But looks like you will have to rebuild your development environment . [03:25] graphics card on the peicx1 bus on a laptop. [03:25] Bashing-om, that, i can deal with... [03:25] tats: Pull the trigger . [03:27] Currently, drivers are not the issue. I can always see the cards on lspci no matter the manufacturer. However the vard is not used. [03:27] card* [03:27] oh you mean an external card [03:27] yes [03:28] i think real world implementations of that are still very thin on the ground [03:28] there was a Sony laptop a couple of years back with a proprietary (shock - Sony) interface, but essentially thunderbolt i think [03:29] I think it should be possible to switch between cards. I can get one card working by installing drivers but this messes up the build in one. [03:29] I just need to script something. [03:29] usually I am pointed to manual modifications of xorg.conf [03:30] i would think all you need to do is... yeah enter both PCI bus IDs and not use one [03:31] I am just a noob at it, so I mess aroung adding stuff and usually just crash the desktop, which Is why I was looking for a good education example. [03:31] I have an Ubuntu 14.04LTS VBox. After accessing it via ssh with Putty I cannot login to its GUI anymore. After typing my user name . I enter my passwords, it clears the screen and then goes back to the login screen. I can still access my VBox via ssh with Putty, but I cannot access it directly. Any ideas how to fix this? TIA! [03:32] Bashing-om, all good [03:32] did you SSH in with putty and try running something like 'startx' ? :) [03:32] thanks again Bashing-om [03:32] yes [03:32] hehe, nailed it [03:32] hehehe [03:32] any way to fix this [03:32] nimbiotics: SSH in and run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "ls -al ~/ | pastebinit" - if there's anything in your home dir that's sensitive, edit it before sharing the link [03:33] tats: Outstanding. We do good work . === enchilado is now known as aeonchild [03:34] daftykins: working on it [03:35] Bashing-om :) [03:36] daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12068312/ [03:37] nimbiotics: yep some stuff is owned by root now, as your user (so username@hostname in PuTTY there) run "sudo chown -R nimbiotics: /home/nimbiotics/" [03:37] now login should work [03:37] tats: :)) yeah, going to go smoke on that good job completed, and call it a night . [03:37] daftykins: thanks [03:38] np [03:38] nimbiotics: also as you learnt the hard way, you can't launch GUI programs from say, a Windows host - unless you use something like cygwin or Xming [03:39] daftykins: understood, thank you very uch' [03:39] :) [03:40] Bashing-om, gonna drink to that. cheers. [03:40] I am sad that I missed whatever this epic exchange was that you two had. [03:40] you can always scroll up [03:40] I joined like 15 mins ago. [03:40] =P [03:40] oh you mean the other two [03:42] Hey, I was doing some research and I came across this Wiki page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs. The release notes links are off, as 14.10 is now unsupported. I just want to continue with my research and I had my IRC client up, so I just wanted to tell someone else so they can fix it. Have a nice day! :) [03:42] daftykins: thank you. Thanks to your help, I know have a full backup of all my data in progress. [03:43] yay \o/ [03:43] And it is also acting as a disk exerciser. [03:43] !cookie | daftykins [03:43] daftykins: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [03:43] Now if a drive fails, I will (hopefully) not loose anything. [03:43] all these cookies are gonna get me fat === Rehotesolcmai is now known as destrudo [03:43] I even have auto backup set for every night. [03:44] remember a backup is only a backup if you test it and it works :D [03:44] Yep. [03:44] I remember the 3 backup commandments. [03:44] daftykins: I could login, but I get some errors and Unity does not seem to be working properly. Any way to fix this? [03:45] nimbiotics: i can't see the errors from here [03:45] tsimonq2: it's a wiki page so you could edit yourself too :) [03:45] #1: users lie when they say they have a backup. [03:45] #2: backup to at least two locations. [03:45] #3: Test those backups. [03:45] what is even [03:46] daftykins: I am too lazy right now :P it is 10:45PM and I just want to read...poor excuse but I just wanted to delegate :P [03:46] we mostly get help seekers after the event ;) [03:46] Yep. [03:46] what is going on === grahamsavage__ is now known as gdog [03:46] and they want instant answers - HAH [03:46] someone told me freenode is exploding [03:46] daftykins: how can I see the messages? [03:46] maxlee, this is ubuntu support. ask your ubuntu questions === gdog is now known as gdogs [03:47] lol [03:47] nimbiotics: maybe log out and back in [03:47] sorry [03:47] wrong channel [03:55] anyone use document viewer (pdf viewer)? [03:55] jmadero, state the issue [03:55] I get permission denied errors when I try to create a folder within the document viewer save as dialog [03:56] I definitely have permissions - I can create folders no problem within nemo, nautilus, or even LibreOffice [03:56] jmadero, who created the .pdf? [03:56] you or someone else? cause it COULD be locked. [03:56] cfhowlett: I can save the pdf fine [03:56] it's only when I click on the "create folder" button that I get issues [03:57] daftykins: I did have to log in and out acouple of times, Im not getting any error messages, but Unity is not behaving properly. Yet I can use my machine. I'll try to fix those things some other time THANK YOU VERY MUCH! [03:57] jmadero, got it. just can't create a folder to put it in. [03:57] exactly [03:57] jmadero, don't know what to tell you other than WFM [03:57] okay that's what I was hoping to get ;) just that it's my environment and not a bug [03:57] jmadero, I'd suspect the environment. [03:58] cfhowlett: weird thing is, happened for quite awhile, on several fresh installs [03:58] only thing I keep is my home folder - so maybe the configuration folder....need to track it down [03:58] oh - well that's interesting, I can create a folder within my home folder [03:58] I just can't on my /data partition..... [03:59] jmadero: ls -al /mount/point/you/can't/write/to/ | pastebinit [03:59] probably not owned by you? [04:00] daftykins: looks like I own it: drwxrwxr-x 8 joel joel 4096 Jun 16 22:11 Joel_Documents [04:00] says I own it [04:00] if I didn't own it, you'd think nemo and LibreOffice would toss out errors as well [04:01] I'll be back - need to go pick up my wife [04:06] Are there any Ubuntu focused trouble shooting guides for when the colormgr cannot detect any devices? === regedit_ is now known as regedit [04:13] It would be awesome if in the Ubuntu Fridge calendars, there was a calendar that had the Ubuntu Release Schedule put into it. Then I could get notifications from Google Calendar :P...can I make this happen or do I have to talk to someone? [04:14] tsimonq2: I'm sorry about that, I must've missed on updating it. working on it now! [04:14] (the word 'fridge' highlights me ;) ) [04:14] jose: For wily? [04:14] tsimonq2, Hmm, a change just for you when this info has a place? [04:14] tsimonq2: yup! [04:14] wileee: he is actually right. I'm a Fridge admin and I'm in charge of that calendar [04:15] tsimonq2: would you please mind emailing me to jose@ubuntu.com so I don't miss it? [04:16] fine if you want to, just seems redundant, myself I never read it, I have maybe twice in 8 years [04:16] jose I sent it [04:16] tsimonq2: cool, thanks! [04:18] wileee Well jeez, Google Calendar is a useful tool and it is not just for me, but it is for everyone else as well to enjoy. If the manager of the calendar is RIGHT HERE, then isn't it rude to say, "No, we don't need it"? http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/conduct [04:19] Just saying :P [04:19] thanks, needed a reason to practice eye rolling. ;) [04:19] hehe, it's fine [04:19] doesn't take much time so I'll tkae care of it today or tomorrow :) [04:20] tsimonq2, wileee: hope you both have a great day! [04:21] wileee: RUDE http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/conduct [04:21] jose: can I get the Fridge releases emailed to me? [04:21] your harrasing me whom is rude [04:22] * cfhowlett closes the microwave door and sets the timer to "popcorn" [04:22] Maybejojo_: unfortunately there's no way to get emailed. however, you can add the calendar to yours! [04:22] already in ignore, all done [04:23] jose: Yes thank you! [04:23] Maybejojo_: jose Yes you can! Add it to your Google Calendar, then edit notifications and get notified :P [04:23] Does anyone know what to do to get Google Chrome to shut down proplery when you shutdown? [04:23] tac, wrong channel. ask chrome [04:23] tac Close the window before you shut down... [04:23] My google-fu has only led me to non-solutions and solutions that don't actually work [04:24] tsimonq2: That's not really a solution [04:24] tac Try it [04:24] tac: you mean when you restart it is says it's not been closed down properly? [04:25] somsip: yes. It looks like the OS kills the process not-so-gracefully when you issue a shutdown from Unity [04:25] tac: prolly receiving a signal from the DE that it considers to be a dirty close. Check for bugs on upstream Chromium I would think [04:26] tac, sorry, bad advice. I brain farted and thought you meant Chrome OS [04:26] And is there a distinction between Chrome and Chromium? Just judging by the name and icons, it makes me think it's a fork or a Ubutnu-specific (Linux-specific?) variant? [04:27] open source specific === Zix_ is now known as Zix [04:27] tac: chromium is FOSS (AIUI) and chrome is google's branded fork [04:27] Gotcha [04:30] tac: Although Chromium still has a ton of references to google ip addresses in its code [04:31] tac: solution for v39 but looks like its v44 now http://superuser.com/questions/873381/how-can-i-disable-the-chromium-didn-t-shut-down-correctly-message-when-my-brow [04:35] This looks like it just forces Chromium to never report it having crashed. [04:36] hmm [04:36] I'll have to keep looking. Thanks for the help though. [04:38] tac: yep - unless code has changed since then it looks like it's very tight on what it considers to be a dirty close. Which makes sense, but might not be what every user wants [04:41] It looks like one of the solutions I saw might do the trick, now that I realize the executable is named chromium-browser, not chrome [04:41] which is to edit /etc/init/lightdm.conf === n1c0 is now known as Guest75234 [04:41] I'm guessing that's just a place to put scripts that get run when interesting stuff happens to Unity? [04:45] or not, gdi === zoe__ is now known as zoekoa [04:59] hello there everyone! [04:59] sweet. I think I resolved it [05:00] I am trying to do some data recovery and I am unsure if I was able to recover anything at all. Can I ask you guys some questions? [05:00] !recovery | Emmanuel_Chanel [05:00] Emmanuel_Chanel: If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode. For instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode [05:01] emmanuel_erc, see above [05:03] Oh, well I clone the affected partition onto another drive to try and restore the data.

[05:58] selalun: yeah, turn off your computer, else the NSA will hack your motherboard xd [05:58] Too late for that [05:59] cfhowlett, I know, but I'm trying to piggy back off 13.10 to get me up to 14.04 [05:59] my understanding is that I can't upgrade straight to 14.04 [05:59] take the chit chat elsewhere selalun [05:59] rodney77, why not just install 14.04 directly?

[06:02] Thank you! [06:02] well it can, cfhowlett, but I'm assuming ports is something very specific [06:03] like it's ubuntu, ported to rasberry pi, or beaglebone, etc [06:03] I don't know for sure, but my question is whether I can change this to old-releases without it breaking my installation [06:03] rodney77, suggestion: backup your current /etc/apt/sources.list edit the new list per the eoupgrade wiki and test. if it fails, restore your backup sources.list [06:04] rodney77, also: you should probably seek support from beaglebone community? [06:04] ok thanks, cfhowlett. I guess my fear was that it would actually break my installation, but I'll give it a try [06:04] thanks, I'll also ask the beaglebone community [06:05] I have a problem with my laptop brightness control, it doesn't change anything, and brightness is a little lower than maximum, I've solved it before by adding something to grub config file, but now its broken again and I can't find that line anymore, maybe grub has been updated and it has changed. so what can I do to solve that?

[06:11] Flannel, OK [06:12] the problem is that grub config file doesn't have this line anymore! it was for the past, and it worked that time [06:12] atralheaven_, Ah, modify it from here gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub [06:12] atralheaven_: check the command still works by appending it to your kernel parameters for a one-time boot, hold left shift before the disk is about to read and add the parameter once.

I will add acpi_backlight=vendor to grub conf file to keep that change every time I boot [06:25] atralheaven_: yay [06:27] its this ppa: ppa:fkrull/deadsnakes [06:28] yeah, PPAs aren't supported i'm afraid - so if you use one, you get support from its' maintainer now. [06:29] BeerLover: any reason you need that particular version? I have 2.7.6 with no PPA on 14.04 [06:31] mostly security [06:31] have a project which needs python 2.7.9 [06:31] but i upgraded it to 2.7.10 [06:32] wafflejock, any remedy? [06:33] BeerLover: nope just wanted to make sure you weren't trying to hard :) [06:33] BeerLover: you'll have to reach out to the package maintainer or build from source I think [06:33] i tried building from source first [06:33] but it wasn't installing [06:33] so i used ppa [06:33] so - contact the maintainer [06:34] BeerLover: you can get the build options that were used to build the latest version on Ubuntu that might be helpful so you know what flags were used, but otherwise as daftykins said [06:34] useless OS this ubuntu [06:34] still using 2.7.6 [06:34] what version are you using? [06:34] they should've provided the update [06:35] 14.04.2 [06:35] right, so that's not even up to date. [06:35] daftykins, why? [06:35] BeerLover, eh? current = 14.04.3 sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [06:35] BeerLover: 2.7.9 is in vivid http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/python [06:35] BeerLover: typical attitude of someone not getting their way, blame the OS :) [06:35] that is a silly reaction really [06:35] sorry [06:35] i have 14.04.3 [06:35] no upgrades available [06:38] BeerLover: if it's essential to have 2.7.9 you can upgrade to 15.04 but it's not an LTS release so you'll need to upgrade that till we get to 16.04 as newer versions are released (16.04 will be another LTS, 2016 April) [06:39] this is a stupid question but is there anyway to remove the amazon services from ubuntu? [06:40] yes, roughly a billion guides all over the internet [06:40] =P [06:40] !adlens [06:40] To hide online search results in Ubuntu Unity, go to System Settings > Security and Privacy > Search and toggle the option off. [06:40] any good hardening guide you could suggest? [06:40] !apparmor | UserUser [06:40] UserUser: For information about the AppArmor security framework employed in Ubuntu (since Gutsy Gibbon), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor [06:40] UserUser: not a guide but lynis a nice tool to give you some info on what to fix [06:41] and no, I have that set but still when running wireshark I see it outbound to a amazon server [06:41] UserUser, check out selinux as well [06:41] I kind of want to stick to ubuntu [06:41] selinux is a component not a distro... [06:41] sorry, im really new [06:41] UserUser, selinux is used With ubuntu [06:42] UserUser, apparmor and selinux are two things to get started on === pkircher_ is now known as pkircher [06:42] wafflejock, how can i upgrade from 14.04 lts to 15.04 without loosing anything? [06:42] ok, writing that down right now. anything else to read up on? [06:43] UserUser, those will take a bit of time to read up on first === screedoz is now known as screedo [06:43] BeerLover: make a backup :) really though you can upgrade you just need to go into the software sources and enable upgrading to non lts... one sec I'm not using unity need to look it up [06:44] UserUser: how to search for lens packages which provide search results, e.g. "apt-cache search lens" and then how to manipulate those packages to perhaps remove your paranoia with regard to playing with wireshark [06:44] BeerLover: see upgrade policy here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Upgrades [06:44] BeerLover: it should basically be in the updater in a tab that you can enable upgrading for normal releases not just LTS [06:45] I just set up a brand new server and install apache2 from apt-get and immediately got this error. I don't know how to fix it. http://apaste.info/DQo [06:45] dan2wik: that's not likely, the configs ship fine out of the box. so look at line 74 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf as it says for an error... [06:47] Hello. My laptop is having an issue where when I open from suspend, the welcome screen loads. If I log into a previous session the screen goes black. If I login to a guest session everything is fine. I'm using an nvidia card using ppa drivers and I'm in Xubuntu 14.04 [06:48] but only from suspend? all cold boots and logins are fine? [06:48] Yup [06:48] which PPA? xorg-edgers? [06:49] One second. I'll look it up [06:50] daftykins: it looks like standard config [06:50] dan2wik: dpkg -l | grep nvidia [06:50] see what version you're using, nvidia-### [06:50] wrong person [06:50] oh yeah [06:50] 8am and no sleep does that to a person [06:51] daftykins, I have both edgers and swat [06:51] daftykins: I feel like it might be an environment issue [06:51] dan2wik: well your errors are pretty obvious, so either you have no experience with apache or you need to do some reading - or both :) [06:51] environment? how? [06:51] it looks like the config is referencing something outside the config. [06:51] m0r0n: ugh. well that's an immensely bad move in the first instance. what's your hardware? optimus laptop? [06:52] the error is gone now :\ [06:52] daftykins, Quadro NVS3100M [06:53] oy, so not even a standard card [06:54] m0r0n: purge your drivers, purge your PPAs and get back to stock. then install one of the nvidia drivers on there, such as nvidia-346 [06:54] but check 'lspci' for whether this is an intel+nvidia hybrid setup [06:55] Okay I'll try. I have two laptops running so I'll let you know if I run into any hiccups [06:55] i'm assuming you're on 14.04+ [06:55] daftykins: turns out I was talking to apache wrong. [06:56] dan2wik: how-so? you said it was the default config === raj` is now known as raj [06:56] so you'd barely met apache! [06:56] Good morning. [06:56] daftykins: I was using "sudo apache2 restart" instead of "sudo service apache2 restart" [06:56] ah har [06:58] Now to start my adventures in apache2 [06:58] one of its' other faves is having an FQDN configured [07:02] Is there any way to set backspace key behavior in file manager to act like windows file manager? and I think it should be set as default, I have a reason for it, when a user goes to a directory, lets say ~/Pictures and then goes to a subdirectory of it, like ~/Pictures/Wallpapers, and then wants to come back to Pictures folder, backspace does it, and also when a user goes to completely different directory, and wants to comeback where he was before [07:03] what is the difference between window managers? [07:04] idle48182: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_X_window_managers [07:05] so have another question, on 12.04 I am useing system monitor and looking at my file system. It shows that I have 150gb free but only 132gb available. [07:06] is there a reason why I have more free disk space vs what I can use? [07:09] daftykins, From what I can tell there's only one GPU, see http://paste.ubuntu.com/12069192/ [07:09] How can I confirm I purged everything and I'm back to default? [07:11] UserUser: some of that free space is used for filesystem things like where files are located and their names. === med_ is now known as Guest61394 [07:17] unity sucks [07:17] wot? [07:17] unity desktop is so sloowww [07:18] works grt 4 me [07:22] hi [07:22] FATZOMBI: do you have a support question? [07:27] To " install one of the nvidia drivers on there, such as nvidia-346" does using the Additional Drivers tab in Software & Updates work? [07:27] m0r0n: ideally i'd like to see an "lspci" first on a http://paste.ubuntu.com [07:27] daftykins, From what I can tell there's only one GPU, see http://paste.ubuntu.com/12069192/ [07:28] m0r0n, did you ppa-purge the multiple PPA drivers for that single card [07:28] m0r0n: yep looks clean, worth double checking what bazhang just asked though [07:28] bazhang, I removed them using the Software & Updates>Other Software (Remove button) [07:29] !ppa-purge | m0r0n [07:29] m0r0n: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [07:29] m0r0n: dpkg -l | grep nvidia [07:30] daftykins, It's empty [07:30] hmm, might be ok then - run a "sudo apt-get update" then "apt-cache policy nvidia-346" and ensure it's coming from the ubuntu repos [07:33] daftykins, Under additional drivers 340.76 is the latest and when I run that command using 340.76 it says it's coming from the ca.archives.ubuntu.xxxxxx [07:33] canadian archive [07:33] Yup [07:34] ok that'll do [07:35] Restarting and checking if the problem persists [07:37] Yup, still an issue [07:37] hi [07:37] m0r0n: which ubuntu version again? [07:38] Xubuntu 14.04 [07:39] Specifically 14.04.3 LTS [07:39] hmm, odd you see no 346 [07:39] wonder if it's your odd card [07:39] tried nouveau? [07:39] Yup. I tried all 5 options, same issue [07:41] My laptop with the same distro, NVS 5400M, is running 352.30 without a snag [07:41] The NVS 3100M is giving me problems [07:41] guess it's a problem card [07:42] does xfce even use lightdm o0 [07:42] I believe so [07:43] Last time I used "startx" and told #Xubuntu the facepalmed and told me to use lightdm [07:43] yeah, don't use startx ever :> [07:44] See the odd thing is, http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/component/pci/10de%3A0a6c/ , says it should be fine === f10 is now known as Guest63034 [07:45] i don't believe in any of that === th1 is now known as techhelper1 [07:47] Thanks Obama === satan is now known as Guest11273 === Mathisen_ is now known as Mathisen [07:49] https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/GNU_002fLinux.html [07:49] It shows me, With linux GRUB uses 32-bit protocol. Some BIOS services like APM or EDD aren’t available with this protocol. In this case you need to use linux16 [07:49] why linux command does not support EDD? [07:50] that'd be a good question for ##linux if it affects the kernel as a whole [07:51] Well if it isn't bazhang [07:51] Looky looky looky [07:52] zanzibizarre: Please help keep this channel on-topic. Thanks. [07:52] :-P [07:54] hi bazhang <3 [07:54] :) [07:57] I just joined Ubunut, and I would like to install something. I want to surf the web and want to install firefox. How do I do that? [07:58] h80s, by not trolling :-D [07:58] Legit question [07:58] * badbodh slaps zanzibizarre h80s [07:58] shoo [07:58] I don't get it. I don't know how to install firefox. [07:58] h80s: sudo apt-get install firefox [07:58] Do you do sudo pacman -S firefox? [07:58] h80s: that's for Arch. [07:58] ... [07:58] oh. thanks. [07:58] oh ok [07:59] Bodh, why must u hurt me [07:59] * badbodh slaps h82or8 with bigger trout [07:59] * zanzibizarre dances [07:59] !ops | silliness [07:59] silliness: Help! Channel emergency!

[08:01] holler_: check the sources on the docker image maybe? [08:02] somsip: http://dpaste.com/0VSF91A [08:02] holler_: python 3.4 probably needs python3-psycopg2 [08:03] holler_: not that it should really matter for apt-get but... [08:03] true [08:05] How can I search up what process turned lightdm off? I have an issue where users who are logged in (have a session) get a black screen after returning from a suspend. The login greeting page still comes up fine though [08:06] hello everybody i have a strange problem with my 15.04 ubuntu [08:06] phpcoder, cool name [08:06] m0r0n: the greeter is still the lightdm session [08:06] sometime it lost my preferences for keyboards .... [08:06] *keyboard [08:06] i must do sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration [08:06] (use the default) and it works again [08:06] whY?! [08:06] whats the commandline for upgrading 14.04 to 14.10 [08:06] zanzibizarre, :D [08:06] daftykins, Arghhhhhh. This is bugging me. It doesn't sound like a driver issue but something that Ubuntu is doing [08:07] phpcoders, first question from me is going to be. do you use vagrant? [08:07] FATZOMBI: 14.10 is no longer supported [08:07] m0r0n: out of interest, create a new user - then repeat the test with it? [08:07] so how i am going to be upgraded to 15 [08:07] ? [08:08] I'll try that. Also when I boot it goes to tty1 for about 2-3s then goes to tty7(with gui) not sure why [08:08] zanzibizarre, yes previously but not at the moment [08:08] FATZOMBI: still do-able, but you'll have to go to 14.10 using old-releases [08:08] FATZOMBI, apt-get dist-upgrade [08:08] but i still have it installed [08:08] FATZOMBI: upgrading from LTS to non-LTS might not be a good idea. [08:08] m0r0n: just slow [08:08] hmm [08:08] so, after I mount my windows partition with sudo ntfs-3g, what is the compatibility between files since there are different line endings and what now? [08:08] does 14.10 server work anymore ? if not FATZOMBI will need a fresh install [08:09] okay [08:09] ty [08:09] !14.10 | badbodh [08:09] badbodh: Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) was the 21st release of Ubuntu. Support ended on July 23rd, 2015. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/utopic [08:10] daftykins, same thing [08:10] does cowsay come pre-installed with ubnutu? [08:10] m0r0n: what about if you now switch to TTY1 then back to 7? [08:10] Mounting partitions, you animal you! [08:11] cowsay "people don't like to answer my questions" [08:11] That's because they're so damn complex [08:11] wat? lol [08:12] daftykins, no dice [08:12] 这里有说中文的吗？ [08:13] !zh | jordie [08:13] jordie: 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [08:13] well that's me out of ideas [08:13] hey, can we please not kick people for nothing [08:13] it makes us fucking ignorant fucks [08:13] thanks [08:14] !ops | terminal_echo profanity & trolling [08:14] terminal_echo profanity & trolling: Help!

[08:18] badbodh: ask a support question or leave. [08:18] some g-cards don't play well with suspend [08:18] badbodh, my thoughts too [08:18] No I get the greeting, if I login to a user who has a session running the screen goes blank. However if it's a fresh session it will go in normally [08:19] Can we please stop kicking people for nothing? It makes us fucking ignorant fucks. Thanks [08:19] m0r0n, that's a curious one.

[08:22] What does* [08:22] desktop environment [08:22] m0r0n, just run the command, it will produce a pastebin link. share that link here, others will take a look [08:22] i.e. xfce, KDE, unity... [08:23] If you're running default ubuntu, it should be unity [08:23] Should I run it in TTy1 after the 'bug' occurs or will a fresh boot be fine [08:23] has to be once it happened [08:23] immediately [08:24] Here she is http://paste.ubuntu.com/12069502/ [08:26] no clues to my eyes [08:27] Maybe I should install Ubuntu and see if that changes anything [08:27] m0r0n, is your problem reproducible? suspend-resume fails everytime ? [08:28] m0r0n, is the session still blanked? Could you switch to TTY1 and issue a 'killall gnome-screensaver' and see if that fixes the blank screen on tty7? [08:28] badbodh, suspend-resume-login(previously logged in) --- 3rd step is where it fails [08:28] Might be gnome-screensaver not clearing properly after session resume [08:28] and yes it's reproducible [08:28] does xfce use gnome-screensaver o0 [08:28] m0r0n, so you do get a screen after resume ? that's one good news [08:29] Ah. it's xfce, figured regular ubuntu [08:29] I get the greeting when I open my lid, enter my password, then it blanks [08:29] Zombyrad, I'll try that now [08:29] i agree with zomby here. if you got any screensavers, disable/uninstall them. that'll clear the playing field a bit. [08:29] daftykins xfce does NOT use gnome screensaver [08:30] cfhowlett: ah, that was my guess [08:30] ty [08:30] got xscreensavers ? [08:30] in fact, the "default", xscreensaver, is known to conflict with lightlocker/lightdm and is recommended for deletion. [08:30] m0r0n, are you running regular ubuntu or xubuntu? we're a bit unclear on what desktop environment you're using [08:31] Xubuntu 14.04 <- Zombyrad [08:31] Hello, dose anybody know why all Ubuntu releases have a minor version of either ".04" or ".10"? [08:31] no we're not, it's above :P [08:31] Ah, missed that [08:31] SpaghettiCat: the month they release in [08:31] April and October is when new things cometh - year.month = release [08:31] Ah nice, so they keep a really tight schedule then [08:31] yep [08:32] [13:50] badbodh: ask a support question or leave. <~ not everyone is here to 'ask' support questions. some of us join late, it's convenient if you repeat your story in short. like what's the issue, ubuntu version and what have you tried. === NikuNiku is now known as Yukkii [08:33] had a feeling the advice was pretty poor.

[08:38] shingshang: ok so you download the 15.04 ISO then you can use 'dd' in the terminal to throw the ISO on the drive [08:38] or unetbootin, yumi, pendrivelinux [08:38] News! News! I have Light Locker (A screen saver type thing. Locks when the lid is closed). After disabling it, the laptop opens straight to where it was left off (no greeting). Everything is good there.

Hitting the "reset hardware defaults" button there should help [08:39] Yes, because it only happens to players that use a specific video output method. VLC, per default, uses something else [08:39] well i need the graphic driver for games you know... [08:39] Yes, and I didn't say you should not use it [08:40] please read what I say and do what I say. Unless you prefer to chat around instead of solving your problem. Fine with me, after all I am not the one having problems [08:40] dont work very good on the out of the box driver ... forgot the name [08:40] So light-locker is the issue. Now I'll have to find that programs bugs or just find a new way to lock on suspend [08:40] ok I look there [08:41] you can remove light-locker and replace with gnome-screensaver (but that might pull in some gnome dependencies, anyone knows?) [08:41] Zombyrad: bad move. [08:41] It looks like this is a common issue, their fix didn't work though. See http://xubuntu.org/news/laptop-users-fix-available-for-the-black-screen-on-unlock-bug/ [08:41] yeah, figured, but xscreensaver is even worse :P === bcc is now known as bcc`` [08:42] m0r0n, was browsing that bug report too [08:42] using a screensaver at all... [08:42] *I was [08:42] I don't see coulour correction :((( [08:42] i'ts not for screensaver, it's for the lock on suspend, for security [08:42] colour* [08:44] m0r0n, remove light locker as zomby suggested. no harm in trying xscreensaver once. it ain't pretty, but lock works. [08:44] daftykins, and what's wrong with a screensaver? I know it's kind of redundant for today's screens, but if it just blanks or turns off the screen, there's no issue afaik? [08:44] if it doesn';t work, you can always hatefully purge it. [08:44] welcome === arek is now known as Guest79797 [08:44] screensavers have been stupid since their inception [08:45] my favourite has always been the display power button [08:45] !info xscreensaver-bsod [08:45] Package xscreensaver-bsod does not exist in vivid [08:45] they were necessary for old CRT screens though, unless you turn it off every time :P [08:45] bsod is probably included in default set [08:46] yes, thus not necessary [08:46] power button = screensaver :) [08:46] !info xscreensaver-screensaver-bsod [08:46] xscreensaver-screensaver-bsod (source: xscreensaver): BSOD screen saver module from XScreenSaver. In component universe, is optional. Version 5.30-1ubuntu1 (vivid), package size 141 kB, installed size 567 kB [08:46] You are talking about the "NVIDIA X Server Settings" correct ? [08:46] DalekSec, is that a screensaver that does what I think it does? :o [08:46] !who | Kali_Yuga [08:46] Kali_Yuga: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [08:47] Zombyrad: It doesn't give you a BSOD, but displays a set of 'em yeah. [08:47] Kali_Yuga, just type in first few alphabets and press 'tab' [08:47] Awesome, I need that now :D [08:47] Zombyrad: There's also a lcdscrub one, no idea if it actually does what it says on the can. [08:47] ja sorry i ment Fuchs [08:48] Kali_Yuga: yes. [08:48] you said Fuchs> Kali_Yuga: open nvidia-settings, there is a setting for (x)video colour correction [08:49] or the likes, yes. As I pointed out, I don't have nvidia-settings at paw right now, as I am (unfortunately) sitting at an AMD machine [08:49] it doesn't have a terrible lot of settings, worst case you can just go through it. The button your are looking for is "reset to (hardware) defaults", that should be findable. Try that. Solved the issue with blue coloured video for me. [08:50] hmm cuz I sadly can't find a colour correction setting :( [08:50] Kali_Yuga, let me boot up my laptop, it has nvidia, I'll give you directions [08:51] Wow I would be unbelievable thankful [08:51] or you could google [08:51] i did [08:51] Kali_Yuga, Fuchs how about control center> color > add profile . is that relevant ? [08:52] badbodh: no [08:52] ok [08:52] Kali_Yuga: I can check for you in roughly 9 hours, but I guess until then you have found it ... [08:53] Open the Nvidia X server settings app and go to X screen 0 [08:53] cuz blue inverted colours is sometimes annoying it doesn't happen on vlc... thats why I thought about the vlc-backend [08:53] Kali_Yuga: http://www.phoronix.net/image.php?id=0&image=nvidia_8751_02_sml this one and the one below. [08:53] Kali_Yuga: well, you can obviously switch to vlc-backend, but that will only affect players using phonon. For the rest you still want to fix it [08:53] hi [08:54] :clear [08:54] Sorry i don't see that option in my driver settings :( it's probably different from card to card or driver to driver ?? [08:54] Kali_Yuga: are you using the nvidia driver? cat /proc/drivers/nvidia/version [08:55] Kali_Yuga, might be... Can you find an option in the left hand pane that says DFP-0 (or similar, usually the brand name of the screen)? Should be under the GPU section [08:56] wait I send you all a screen ok [08:57] how do i apt-get firefox? [08:57] sudo apt-get install firefox? [08:57] Kali_Yuga, you get the same issue on all video players? how does youtube work ?

[08:58] ok [08:58] ablest1980, yes. but if i recall firefox is pre-installed in ubuntu. [08:58] just checking ty [08:58] yes [08:58] can you direct me from there? [08:58] looks like an optimus setup [08:58] i have it [08:58] there is nothing right [08:58] XD [08:58] ablest1980: well holy-moly [08:58] lol [08:59] Kali_Yuga: that looks indeed like a bit missing, however, what ablest1980 wrote. You happen to have a notebook, with an intel card in it, too? [08:59] Kali_Yuga, yeah, seems like the option where the color correction stuff should be isn't there === dearn_ is now known as dearn [08:59] if yes: I think that one is responsible for the output, so maybe you have to check their settings [08:59] daftykins, badbodh , Zombyrad ty for your patients. I'll try to figure out a lock later today. It's 5AM and I need to sleep. [08:59] Fuchs: that was me ;_; [08:59] i have amd ati notebook [09:00] shit [09:00] daftykins: err, sorry :( [09:00] daftykins: you both have the same colour, my bad [09:00] m0r0n, no problem, glad to be of help! [09:00] Kali_Yuga: inappropriate language here [09:00] * Fuchs hands daftykins a tasty cookie [09:00] woohoo cookie \o/ [09:00] yep i'm gonna be fat with all these cookies [09:00] * badbodh snatches the cookie and runs [09:00] oatmeal cookies hehe [09:01] nom-nom...blurghhh...raisins! in a cookie! [09:01] kidding XD [09:01] Does intel have a gui app for settings on Linux? I've always had pure nvidia setups... [09:02] not that i know of, Zombyrad [09:02] you guys use 'inxi' ? gives a lot of info for troubleshooting [09:02] Kali_Yuga: "lspci | pastebinit" please [09:02] do what ok 1 sec pls [09:02] badbodh: built in tools are more useful. [09:02] not installed wait [09:02] often we're helping new users. [09:03] inxi is just a frontend. try it sometime, it's in repos. mint channel guys use it a lot. graphics network audio all in one. [09:04] ok i could have done that differently but ok here my system [09:04] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12069668/ [09:05] Yeah, that looks like it might be a Nvidia Optimus setup [09:05] for what was that important?? [09:05] Kali_Yuga: lspci -k [09:06] ups im late :) [09:06] ya === x4w31 is now known as x4w3 [09:07] ok what is an Nvidia Optimus now?? [09:07] sure is, ivybridge and so forth [09:07] intel+nvidia hybrid graphics setup [09:07] Kali_Yuga, because in essence you have 2 video cards, an intel one and the nvidia one, crudely satted [09:07] *stated [09:07] I know i have both [09:07] which means D: [09:07] ? === shut is now known as jokowi-asu [09:08] Can you try optirun and play a video and check if the colors are wrong still?

[09:09] i try what is opti something? [09:10] i mean opti sound good right [09:10] optimus [09:10] optirun isn't even necessarily the implementation on there o0 [09:10] optimal sound always good [09:10] Ice_Strike: vnc server options?

[09:12] Eh, no, Kali_Yuga [09:12] bumblebee is the old outdated method [09:12] optirun [09:12] The program 'optirun' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: [09:12] Kali_Yuga: dpkg -l | grep nvidia | pastebinit [09:12] sudo apt-get install bumblebee [09:12] Kali_Yuga: don't do it.

[10:21] georgi_: that is not an ubuntu support issue. ask in #ubuntu-offtopic or ##chat [10:22] sdfswelp: do you have any addons that might be blocking java? [10:22] not really, just some themes [10:23] ubuntu modifications and atralheaven_ atralheaven_ unity stuff [10:23] oops sorry, tabspamd [10:24] sdfswelp: they wont block java. may you explain more? or if its possible, give me the page link so I can check myself [10:25] https://blocklist.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/p964 [10:25] sdfswelp, Firefox does block that old java indeed > https://blocklist.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/p964 [10:27] "Java Plugin 8 update 45 (click-to-play), Linux has been blocked for your protection."

[10:32] guys if I had a idea/suggestion for ubuntu, where can I tell developers about it? [10:32] atralheaven_: ubuntu--devel-discuss mailinglist [10:33] fkkk... now I remember I needed oracle java for something. How do I even change back [10:33] !java [10:33] To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. [10:34] yes openjdk I assume will solve theproblem [10:34] cheers [10:37] I've never worked with mailing lists :| I should learn what it is and how can I use it, I can't spend much time for it, can I just tell someone who is in developers group about it? [10:37] that's the way by the sounds :) [10:37] just simple ideas to make ubuntu better [10:39] atralheaven_, that is how development works, not in an IRC channel, but typed out in a mailinglist. [10:39] !mailinglists [10:39] Mail is another medium to communicate. Ubuntu mailing lists can be found at http://lists.ubuntu.com [10:40] thanks, you're right, I will check that out :) [10:40] think globally/timezones/not all developers are hanging in an IRC channel. === shan is now known as Guest91533 [10:44] well, minetest development happens mainly via irc [10:44] some projects do it via irc, some do it via mailing lists.

[10:53] no i get it [10:53] can I somehow see the build log for yesterday? [10:54] launchpad [10:54] est31: as i told you earlier, #ubuntu+1 is the place for wily talk. [10:54] onicrom the non-free is Windows (joke) [10:54] it's not out thus this is the wrong channel [10:55] est31: try if someone in #launchpad knowns [10:56] well i think youre right about the mouse, unplugging it may have helped but its a bit harder to reproduce without it :) [10:57] but yes it makes sense because i had the same problem in gnome-terminal with tabs too [10:57] * onicrom tips his had to MonkeyDust and daftykins [10:57] onicrom: what happened? [10:58] daftykins: nothing, which is good [10:59] onicrom: as in the behaviour went away when you unplugged the mouse? [11:00] daftykins: correct, but navigation is a bit slower so not entirely sure its reproducable [11:00] without the mouse [11:01] hey everyone [11:01] What exactly is the dmesg log [11:01] ? [11:01] kernel messages [11:01] or daemon messages [11:01] onicrom: for what it's worth i had an issue with my mouse wheel going up the page as much as it would go down when i rolled it just down... took it apart and cleaned it up, found lots of gunk - all solved :) [11:02] NetworkingPro: man dmesg [11:02] daftykins: thx [11:02] onicrom: will do [11:02] daftykins: funny thing i was just thinking ive had this mouse for 4yrs now and use it at least 10hrs a day 7 days a week. im sure thats the case :) [11:02] k1l, thanks [11:03] also i am a big fan of dmesg -T [11:03] its about TTTTime that was added [11:03] XD [11:04] time for BACON and eggs [11:04] *droool* [11:04] one please [11:05] surething [11:05] << Just had ham [11:05] was pretty tasty.

[11:18] was thinkin of giving it a shot, looks nice as heck [11:18] maybe skip the src ? [11:18] yes [11:18] hm [11:18] again [11:18] something else is wrong [11:18] i would use route [11:19] not sure how to add to table with just route [11:19] route add -net 77.246.215.115/28 gw 77.246.215.115 [11:19] ^ [11:19] onicrom: i need both tables. using two isp uplinks [11:20] btw /sbin/ip route add 77.246.215.115 dev eth0 src 77.246.215.115 works but i cant access the 115 ip from the outside [11:20] leeyaa: ah [11:27] that leads me to a problem i need to solve actually [11:28] im going to have 3 different interfaces (8021q tagged) i have one set as default route, but i need to ensure that the traffic goes back out the same interface it come sin on [11:28] possibly one for ##networking [11:29] daftykins: i was refered from #networking to #ubuntu :D [11:29] right but you're not the person i'm talking to. === Yukkii is now known as Dhs92 [11:31] oh sorry [11:32] leeyaa: what are you trying to do with your rule [11:32] I can't remember where to add a user to the gosa admins. any idea?

[11:40] gw is gateway [11:40] src is source [11:40] MonkeyDust: i mean what is 10.10.20.64 [11:41] leeyaa: i think 10.10.20.64 is where you put network [11:41] and change scope from host to net [11:41] ? [11:41] leeyaa are you not familiar with ip addresses? [11:41] SCOPE := [ host | link | global | NUMBER ] [11:41] maybe not [11:42] sigh [11:43] leeyaa surf to whatismyip.com and read (don't show us, it's for you) [11:45] MonkeyDust: i have no idea what are you talking about [11:46] when installing ubuntu server is it good to use lvm [11:46] depends if you want to use LVM, i never do - it's black magic to me. === Shrooms` is now known as Shrooms [11:47] philip_ with LVM, you can more easily add, remove, resize partitions ... there's a learning curve tho, i only know the basics [11:50] so its better to instal with lvm rather and just installing as root [11:50] philip_ but also explore 'linux containers' lxc [11:50] it's only better if you know how and want to use it :P [11:50] which is more preferred [11:51] read about it and then just pick one! [11:51] -bash: a2enmod: command not found ?? Please anyone help ! [11:51] i don't personally think it important to ever need to resize partitions post install [11:51] philip_ if you don't know what it is and what it's for, don't use it [11:51] leeyaa: Although it ought not to matter, it is convention to specify the network by its base address, which is "212.104.111.64/28" instead of by one of the addresses within the CIDR as you have. It makes reading the tables easier [11:51] i have no idea about lxc [11:52] philip_ that's why i suggested to explore it... you have no idea about lvm either... [11:52] TJ-: ill note that [11:52] mostly wat i want to do is increase partition after adding additional harddisk when configured with RAID [11:52] philip_: Using LVM is a good approach, especially if you reserve some space for future allocations instead of allocating all space immediately [11:52] btw im still scratching my head. i am reading this and it is supposed to work https://www.thomas-krenn.com/en/wiki/Two_Default_Gateways_on_One_System [11:53] however im still getting invalid argument [11:53] leeyaa: does /var/log/kern.log give any clues? [11:54] TJ-: no thats all i get https://bpaste.net/show/f00cc09d640e [11:54] am actually configuring hardware RAID , and added additional harddisk but trying to increase size [11:54] leeyaa: is there anything in those route tables alredy, when you issue the command? Also, what ip addresses are assigned to the interface at this point ("ip addr show dev eth0") ? [11:55] philip_: TRUE hardware RAID, or fakeRAID? [11:55] TJ-: default routes should be in the tables and thease are the ips https://bpaste.net/show/87d2b5feb637 [11:55] TJ-: this is what i had as a script and it used to work https://bpaste.net/show/8235a2460421 [11:55] philip_ start from the beginning, what brings you here === ur[a]nellus is now known as uranellus [11:56] im sure im missing something weird [11:57] what i want to do is, after adding additional harddisk i want it to take effect on the ubuntu server [11:58] that will never be auto [11:58] by increasing the partition [11:58] that's a really bad idea, one disk would die and you may lose everything === Eggs is now known as Guest45357 [12:01] i have three harddisk(RAID 5 configured) added a new harddisk to increase the space which i have done.but now trying to increase the size on the ubuntu server using resize2fs but not workin [12:01] RAID5 provided by what? Linux mdadm? [12:02] i configured hard ware RAID [12:02] then this is nothing to do with the OS [12:02] well, if you already increased the RAID volume properly and have all that done, just gparted could resize the partition [12:03] (maybe) [12:03] perhaps if you booted a live session of ubuntu desktop someone could help you assess the current situation [12:03] my problem is how to resize because it is an ubuntu server not GUI [12:04] right but no matter what, you don't resize from the *running* system if it's not LVM [12:04] so you need to boot a live session of desktop. [12:04] it is lvm [12:04] philip_: does the OS report the new hardware RAID device size? [12:04] yes pls [12:05] its not the resizing am having little issue with [12:06] philip_: how are you confirming the RAID device is now larger than it was - what command are you using, and what is its output ? [12:07] using fdisk [12:10] philip_: right, so you have a larger disk, which has partitions on it, and in those partitions are file-systems. You can only use resize2fs the file-system, but to do that, the partition that contains the file-system needs to be enlarged first, *and* the kernel told to re-read the partition table, otherwise a reboot is required for the kernel to read the partition table again [12:11] i used resize2fs but its not taking effect even after resizing it === andyfied_ is now known as andyfied [12:14] excuse me! [12:14] philip_: pro tip would be to actually provide some evidence of this situation and not just words [12:14] okay [12:15] i am looking for help with ubuntu [12:16] hello [12:16] How do I do this in bash? git commit -m 'pass | smth | like | this' [12:17] excuse me! could anyone show me how to contact help with ubuntu? [12:17] !ask | vjgty [12:17] vjgty: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [12:19] vjgty: 'help' is ambiguous. You should start by stating what your current problem is [12:19] or what you really need. [12:24] ok. my problem is that i am running Windows 10 and i downloaded Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and burned the ISO in the USB. after that I ran Wubi from the Windows explorer, and then restarted. I booted into the USB, but after a while, the login window appeared. I searched for help. I did everything I could. I entered the username 'ubuntu' and leave the password field blank. I also press Ctrl + Alt + F1 to create a new user name, and the problem still exists: there was a [12:24] dont use wubi [12:25] make a real install into own partitions. or if you want to test, then just boot the usb-live-system to test ubuntu. [12:26] k1l: could you show me how to install ubuntu into my own partitions? [12:27] ololo? [12:29] leeyaa: http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html [12:30] could anyone show me how to install ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS without using wubi? [12:30] onicrom: thats with two interfaces [12:30] im using one ;p [12:30] second interface is for local network only [12:30] could anyone show me how to install ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS without using wubi? [12:31] vjgty, http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/install-ubuntu-desktop [12:31] leeyaa: add another :) [12:32] leeyaa: vlan tags? [12:32] onicrom: im supposed to do it with one [12:32] and the funny part is it used to work [12:32] can you use 8021q [12:32] 8021q ? [12:32] eth0.100 would be an interface using vlan 100 [12:32] its a new 'device' [12:33] but uses the same wire [12:33] Mathisen: it is a mess now. there are both ubuntu and windows in my PC. and the boot with USB ended up with infinite circles of login screens [12:33] onicrom: how do you configure that [12:33] i used to do it on gentoo [12:34] no idea how to make eth0.something on ubuntu [12:34] your switch needs to have the vlans setup [12:34] apt-get install vlan [12:34] it doesnt ;p [12:34] so out of the question [12:34] then edit /etc/network/interfaces and just define an interface eth0.### [12:34] vjgty, if you just want to have ubuntu on your machine just boot from a dvd then and choose " Wipe the drive " then everything will be gone as long as you dont have multiple drives [12:34] well fix your switches :) [12:35] vjgty, beware EVERYTHING will be lost [12:35] onicrom: it used to work. i just need to find out whats wrong now [12:35] Mathisen: But the only thing I have now is my USB, i do not have a dvd [12:36] vjgty, usb works fine [12:36] Mathisen: I burned the ISO into it === mystic is now known as srini [12:36] vjgty, does not work like that... try this >> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ [12:37] vjgty: do you want windows and ubunut on it or just ubuntu? [12:38] Mathisen: can i install ubuntu on my hard drive using that tool? [12:38] vjgty, it will create a usb that you can boot from, so yes [12:39] k1l: I want both windows and ubuntu [12:39] vjgty: ok. what OS are you using right now? [12:40] Mathisen :my USB has only 2GB [12:40] Mathisen: is that a problem? [12:40] Forbidden: You don't have permission to access /brython_log.txt on this server. [12:40] k1l: i am using Windows 10 OS [12:40] I've just done "sudo ln -s /home/pi/irclogs/freenode/#brython.log /home/pi/web/public_html/brython_log.txt" but http://pipad.org/brython_log.txt gives "Forbidden: You don't have permission to access /brython_log.txt on this server."

[12:41] Can anyone tell me why this fails? [12:42] mathisen: can I use Rufus instead? [12:43] Mathisen: can I use Rufus instead? [12:43] k1l: can I use Rufus instead? [12:43] vjgty, use whatever you feel is best for you [12:43] vjgty, in the end its all the same [12:44] Mathisen: well, the fact is that I tried rufus and it got stuck ;-) [12:44] vjgty, but do some reading first if you want to keep windows also so you dont go and delete the windows partition during the installtion [12:44] sigh [12:45] Mathisen: thank you, I will try your method for the better [12:45] k1l: Thank you so much [12:45] vjgty: after you created the usb, shrink the windows partitions from inside windows to make space for the ubuntu installation. [12:46] k1l: how to shrink it? [12:46] the damn second interface is working but i cant ping it [12:46] i had this [12:46] i hate this* [12:46] k1l_ how to shrink it? [12:48] vjgty: https://www.petri.com/shrink-system-partition-in-windows-7 [12:49] k1l_: thank you so much! [12:50] bye guys! [12:50] leeyaa: have you run tcpdump on the interface to see what is arriving? [12:53] TJ-: yeah iptables rules are messed up. ill figure it out [12:54] does the time btrfs-convert need to covert an ext4-fs to btrfs depend on the amount of files or filesizes? [12:55] jabba_: I would assume so, since I'd also asusme that unallocated blocks can be skipped over [12:56] TJ-, you would assume it depends on size? [12:57] jabba_: I would assume it depends on the number of allocated blocks in the source file-system... and the less free space in the source the more shuffling the conversion will have to do [12:57] damn... i guess converting a 12TB device (1TB free) will take ages... :( [13:00] Lol [13:04] jabba_: hope you've got a good back-ups and UPS running :) [13:04] What is a standard input stream? [13:05] the_upgrade: in what context? [13:05] I'm trying to understand how all these hyphenated commands work. [13:05] e.g., -p [13:06] the_upgrade: still need more context [13:06] Well I read that the hyphen is a command to "use the standard input stream" [13:06] the_upgrade: they are called parametres [13:06] I dont understand what that means [13:07] the_upgrade: "stream" got a lot of meanings in the IT. so if you cant even name the program/command where you read that word in the documentation i cant help you :/ [13:07] the_upgrade: standard input stream is (I think) the parametre you feed the application from command line [13:08] the_upgrade: every process initially is allocated 3 file-descriptors: 0 = stdin, 1 = stdout, 2 = stderr. stdin receives input (standard input) [13:08] the_upgrade: if you pipe processes together with something like "echo hello | grep hello" the shell connects stdout of "echo" to stdin of "grep" [13:09] the_upgrade: alternatively, some programs take "-" in place of a filename to indicate they should read from stdin rather than a file === someon is now known as someone [13:10] Ok, so for example, if I enter this into the terminal: mysql -u root -p [13:11] What exactly am I doing? [13:12] the_upgrade: the mysql client is receiving 3 arguments, denoted by "-u", "root", and "-p" ... it interprets them according to its own usage rules, which you can view for most commands using the "--help", "-h" options or using the manual with "man " as in "man mysql" === NetworkingPro is now known as ArgghThePornPira === ArgghThePornPira is now known as PornPirate [13:13] the_upgrade: according to "man mysql" ... "--user=user_name, -u user_name" [13:13] TJ: Very helpful answers, thank you. [13:13] the_upgrade: so there is a 'long' form "--user=" and a 'short' form "-u" that both mean the same thing, and expect the next argument in the list to be a user-name [13:14] the_upgrade: we often use the 'long' form to make a command easy to read, and the 'short' form when we're fed up of typing! [13:16] What are the double hyphens for? e.g. --help? [13:17] hi [13:18] the_upgrade: notice in the man-age description of the options that all 'long' options are prefixed with "--" and 'short' options by "-" [13:18] the_upgrade: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/11376/what-does-double-dash-mean-also-known-as-bare-double-dash [13:18] the_upgrade: that is the signal to the argument parser as to what type of argument to expect [13:21] wow.... this must be the lecture of the month [13:21] Hi all. Since yesterday, I've been getting constant hangs/crashes in Firefox (after 40.0 update) on 15.04 x64. I know it's likely an FF issue, but running it through gdb and getting traces has suggested that it has to do with something broken in threading / piping. I'm hoping someone here might have some technical insight that could help me understand better what's going on? [13:21] See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1193855 [13:21] Mozilla bug 1193855 in Untriaged "Frequent hangs/crashes in due to apparent threading error (in Ubuntu 15.04, began with 40.0)" [Critical,Unconfirmed] [13:21] hey all, I have a problem, after a botched intall attempt of 15.04 in UEFI-mode I wiped out my install and re-installed, but there seems to be a residule artifact on my drive's /boot/efi as seen here Password entry required for 'Please enter passphrase for disk WDC_WD3003FZEX-00Z4SA0 (cryptswap1) on none!' (PID 5882). [13:22] hey all, I have a problem, after a botched intall attempt of 15.04 in UEFI-mode I wiped out my install and re-installed, but there seems to be a residule artifact on my drive's /boot/efi as seen here "Password entry required for 'Please enter passphrase for disk WDC_WD3003FZEX-00Z4SA0 (cryptswap1) on none!' (PID 5882)." (repost to fix punctuation) [13:22] gartral, that's not uefi, that's from encryption [13:23] ^ +1 [13:23] cfhowlett: well, whatever, how do i fix it? [13:23] start with your attitude [13:24] MoPac: "Corrupted shared library list" ... does "ldd" show anything out of the ordinary? [13:24] gartral, I assume you have encrypted the HDD? [13:25] cfhowlett: no, i haven't, only my home folder, which is why i assumed this was uefi-related [13:25] gartral, I've found nothing but heartbreak with encryption, so I'm not the one to advise you. sorry. [13:26] cfhowlett: also see http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot2015-08-1309-18-25.php [13:26] gartral: the previous system created an (encrypted) swap partition... right now there probably isn't one defined but when the LUKS header for the swap partition is seen it triggers cryptsetup, which reads "/etc/crypttab" to find out how to unlock it, finds no reference to that partition, and asks you for a key [13:26] TJ-: Not sure; is there an option I should run it with to check? I had done a bit of searching and was enlightened about the idea that it's probably a corrupted list of libraries rather than a list of corrupted libraries, but that's as far as I got ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30128220/finding-cause-of-corrupted-shared-library-error-qt5-c ). And I'm not sure if it's directly related or ot [13:27] TJ-: how might I rectify this? [13:27] gartral: "sudo lsblk -f" might help identify which partition it is... then you can decide what is the best remedy - either zap the LUKS header, or ensure the new install uses the same partition and rewrites the key [13:28] Hello, how could i add (XFCE) context command for the folder "Search for" for each directory I rightclick, including subdirectories (Thunar). [13:29] MoPac: try "ldd -v /usr/lib/firefox/firefox" [13:31] TJ-: the error specifically says the drive, which is my internal hdd, on "none", also... "marking GPT swap partition /dev/sda3 as no-auto, so that the encrypted swap partition cryptswap1 will be used..." [13:31] TJ-: Output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12071009/ === clynamen is now known as Guest38062 [13:32] TJ-: how do i zap the luks header? [13:35] gartral: OK, so /dev/sda3 was/is discovered. Can you pastebin "/etc/fstab" and "/etc/crypttab" (the latteronly if it doesn't contain anything sensitive you've put there) [13:38] To be more specific - I want to execute a specific command in a given directory, the command will be gnome-search-tool. I want it to be run for a directory I right click in Thunar. I would like to get some context menu "Search for" there. Any ideas? Thank you. [13:38] TJ-: certainly! fstab: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12071054/ and crypttab: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12071059/ [13:39] TJ-: oh.. now i see, my swap is still encrpyted >.< i guess the option in the installer "remove everything and install ubuntu" is slightly mis-leading [13:40] gartral: it's slightly more subtle than that. swap is encrypted with a key created each time the system boots from /dev/random [13:40] hey [13:40] TJ-: did you see my screenshot? [13:41] gartral: in theory even after a reinstall this should work but..! can you "pastebinit <(sudo lsblk -f)" [13:41] TJ-: you reminded me i need to install pastebinit [13:42] gartral: hey [13:42] TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12071096/ [13:43] hey everyone [13:44] So, I have a ruby process thats no closing files.. its spawning 100's of thousands of network files (lsof) very quickly. [13:44] Any idea how to troubleshoot that? [13:44] Im... lost [13:44] PornPirate, ask #ruby [13:45] cfhowlett: nothing that I can do at the linux level to find out more? [13:46] gartral: right, I *think* it's trying to unlock /dev/sdb5 ... we need to prove that is indeed WDC_WD3003FZEX [13:46] gartral: "pastebinit <(ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/ /dev/disk/by-uuid/ )" [13:47] MoPac: That ldd output looks correct, and is identical to mine (also got FF40 here) [13:47] TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12071125/ [13:48] TJ-: Do you think my threading issue would be something worth asking devs of glibc about? I never know whether there's real involvement of that code since it's always referenced everywhere... [13:49] MoPac: I think you'd need some string evidence of a bug to interest them; pthreads always gets the blame :) [13:50] gartral: OK, so the issue is /dev/sda3 ... which according to 'lsblk' is a pure unencrypted swap, but apparently also may have a LUKS header. hang on whilst I test this [13:50] TJ-: I gather than libpthreads is developed just as part of glibc, right? It's not a separate project? [13:50] TJ-: ty, take your time [13:50] Anyone know why a zip file would refuse to extract on my ubuntu server using unzip, but when I download it to my windows machine I can extract it without a problem? [13:51] different compression maybe [13:51] gartral: OK, can you show me "pastebinit <( sudo blkid /dev/sda3)" [13:52] TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12071158/ [13:52] Voziv: run "file /path/to/file.zip" on it to see what zip version header the file has [13:52] Hi. anyb0dy knows why i can not update the kubuntu repository? (with sudo). it says server not found O.o thanks [13:53] maniacoDpr: can you pastebin the output of "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade"? [13:53] maniacoDpr, what ubuntu number? [13:53] EriC^^: I should fill in a bit more info, we have a windows server that pushes zip files to a linux server to transfer some files. Smaller zips extract fine (< 6gb most of the time), but we have had a 20gb zip and a 14gb zip fail now. And the latest is a 5gb zip which is odd since we had a 6gb zip succeeed. [13:53] TJ-: b1489716-160f-4dc9-8d1e-c6c617004949.zip: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract [13:54] gartral: Yes, that confirms it. sda3 was originally encrypted and now isn't, but has the LUKS header. Do "sudo swapoff /dev/sda3" to begin with [13:54] TJ-: swap disabled [13:54] ops.I mean ubuntu not kubuntu. and i am not right now in front of my computer... but its the 14.0 [13:55] Voziv: Well, unzip shouldn't have a problem with V2.0 so I'm not sure what is happening unless there's a password on 1 or more of the archive contents [13:55] maniacoDpr: 14.10 utopic or 14.04 trusty lts? [13:55] ok. i will ask again in a couple of hours :-) sorry [13:55] gartral: OK ... now I have to think carefully :) [13:56] thx EriC^^ [13:56] Voziv: can you install dtrx on the server and try using that? [13:56] gartral: I used dtrx :), It uses "unzip -q " [13:57] Hello, I would like to know if y'all know of a modern terminal emulator that will be able to support Ctrl+backspace [13:57] I just tried 7z e and it seems to be working which is great, but now I need to figure out why 7z can do it and unzip can't (or more specifically zip4j, as that's what's failing for us) [13:58] Voziv: possibly it was created with 7z which uses an algorithm that isn't in unzip [13:58] TJ-: It was created with zip4j, and other zips work fine which is what's baffling me [13:58] hi [13:59] Voziv: On Windows, if 7z has been installed, it's DLL will likely be automatically triggered when that algorithm is found [13:59] Voziv: really? Hmmm, no idea then! [13:59] That said, I need to wait for this to fully extract [13:59] Voziv: what does unzip -Z -h on that file return? [14:00] hey folks [14:00] for some reason i cant add russian in Ibus preferences [14:00] any ideas how to do it? [14:01] gartral: https://gist.github.com/lrobert/f78cef9aacbf481fac5e [14:02] gartral: still figuring it out... deciphering what /lib/cryptsetup/cryptdisks.functions:do_swap () does [14:03] hi [14:04] TJ-: ahhhaha! you're ftp client wasn't in binary mode when you transferred that file.. either that or something else mangled the file [14:05] anyone succesfully rinnin a pokerclient? [14:05] my multimedia keys [play/pause-next-prv-mute-volUP-volDOWN] not work please help me. [14:05] runnin [14:05] evergreen distro? [14:05] TJ-: sorry [14:05] whytrytofly, ubuntu 15.04 [14:05] Voziv: ahhhaha! you're ftp client wasn't in binary mode when you transferred that file.. either that or something else mangled the file [14:05] gartral: :D [14:05] gartral: I assume that was meant for me. I don't get why 7z can still get through it though [14:06] Voziv: because 7z will attempt to auto-recover [14:06] hmm [14:06] I suppose I can checksum to see [14:07] gartral: just to avoid any unnecessary hacking here, did this start happening after a reboot [14:08] whytrytofly, i think after home director change to chmod 775 this keys not work [14:08] managed [14:08] :D [14:08] hi, I would like to extract all strings like _TRL("Sample text") from my source files and convert them to -> Sample text. Any idea how? [14:08] TJ-: good question, and I can't rightly answer that as i've rebooted several times, however I CAN confirm it happens several times during an apt-get update/upgrade [14:08] Hi. Is there an app that will allow me to upload text to pastebin quickly? [14:09] (or some other similar site) [14:09] !pastebinit | TuquiTuqui [14:09] TuquiTuqui: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [14:09] whytrytofly, a time remove .config/dconf/user [14:10] whytrytofly, but not true and work keys [14:11] my multimedia keys [play/pause-next-prv-mute-volUP-volDOWN] not work please help me. [14:12] does pastebinit only work with already created text files? can I not paste text into the terminal? [14:12] TuquiTuqui: you can pipe to pastbinit [14:12] gartral: Thing is, everything I've seen in your config is as it ought to be, so from boot the /dev/sa3 should be seen as a LUKS-encrypted partition by udev (which calls blkid to find out) which runs cryptsetup-udev which should create a new LUKS header using a new key from /dev/random, open it and put that device at /dev/mapper/cryptswap1, then do "mkswap /dev/mapper/cryptswap1" and "swapon /dev/mapper/cryptswap1" [14:13] TuquiTuqui: foo | pastebinit should paste the output of foo [14:13] k1l_: how? [14:13] oh ok let me try [14:14] Didn't work. How do I use the "foo" part? === tommy is now known as Guest81741 [14:15] TJ-: if you want I'm fairly certain I can reliably walk you through the exact steps to reproduce it behavior [14:15] do I type "foo [whole lot of text here] | pastebin -b http://pastebin.org? [14:17] TuquiTuqui: pastebinit not pastebin === Arthur is now known as Guest79078 [14:17] gartral: I'm researching why the package set-up of ecryptfs-utils is reporting the 'no-auto' thing - I can't find anything in the ecryptfs-utils files that writes that message, which suggests it is triggering something in yet another package [14:18] Typo. But I typed it well in terminal and got "sorry, you're trying to upload an empty file" [14:18] TuquiTuqui: ah, you want to _type_ text [14:19] TJ-: you want my swap's header to disect? [14:19] TuquiTuqui: echo "Whatever text foo bar bla" | pastebinit [14:19] TuquiTuqui: I thought you were trying to get the output of a program (I took foo as an example) to pastebin, that's a very common usecase [14:19] Fuchs: what about the ouput of a terminal command? [14:20] I mean, a terminal command that already finished [14:20] TuquiTuqui: well, technically you could copy & paste that command and use echo [14:20] gartral: I don't think that will make a difference, unless there's something always overwriting /dev/sda3 with a swap instead of using cryptswap1 [14:21] TuquiTuqui, something like: df -h | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [14:21] I'm debating installing on my 7,2 macbook air. Everything works great on liveusb except for suspend (crashes when opening lid). I've yet to find stability info for 7,2, so a bit worried, any experience with it? [14:22] !mac | ircmaxell [14:22] ircmaxell: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a Mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages [14:22] hi, my wifi connection says "unmanaged" [14:22] how to load grub menu during boot from other file? [14:22] I can only connect if I hard code into /etc/network/interfaces [14:22] cfhowlett: I've looked on the documentation. The only info there is for 2014 hardware (6,2). [14:22] gartral: what does "sudo cryptsetup isLuks /dev/sda3 && echo Yes || echo No" report? [14:23] When I tryi with "pastebin -b http://pastebin.com" I get "Bad API request, invalid api_dev_key [14:23] " [14:23] *pastebinit [14:24] TJ-: "No" [14:24] gartral: what's in /etc/crypttab? [14:24] EriC^^: cryptswap1 UUID=736dd4f1-8f93-492d-a401-0f6a1df10aac /dev/urandom swap,offset=1024,cipher=aes-xts-plain64 [14:25] gartral: OK, so something has removed the LUKS header [14:25] gartral: ok, remove that line [14:25] It does work with "paste.ubuntu.com". How do I make it work with pastebin.org? [14:25] EriC^^: remove or comment out? [14:26] gartral: it doesn't explain how sda3 gets mounted as swap though - I suspect this is systemd's doing since it ignores /etc/fstab for thins kind of thing [14:26] TJ-: http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-cryptsetup@.service.html [14:26] gartral: comment it out if you'd like or remove it since you won't be using the encrypted swap [14:26] EriC^^: removing that is not what is required; the issue is that systemd is making the original partition SWAP rather than doing the encryption first [14:27] TJ-: but it says At early boot and when the system manager configuration is reloaded this /etc/crypttab is translated into systemd-cryptsetup@.service [14:28] EriC^^: yes, and it indicates that "systemd-cryptsetup-generator" should be run to translate /etc/crypttab ... I bet that is the bit that is missing [14:28] EriC^^: but i'd like to have my swap encrypted as gennerally I suspend or hibernate my computer instead of powering down [14:29] Noob gdb question: is there a way to load symbols from a different program to the one being run? I'm trying to backtrace a crash in Chrome, and I figure (maybe naively) that the chromium-browser-dbg file might work for it... [14:29] gartral: I think this is the key phrase "system manager configuration is reloaded" [14:30] MoPac: never do that, chome and chromium have different symbol maps as they're compiled from different trees on different computers [14:30] MoPac: I doubt it, the offsets will all be incorrect even if the symbols are identical [14:30] Fair enough. [14:33] hi, my wifi connection says "unmanaged" in 15.04, I can only connect by hard coding /etc/network/interfaces [14:34] When I type "echo "abc" | pastebinit -b http://paste.debian.net" it returns: http://paste.debian.net [14:34] gartral: I'm wondering if we simply make sda3 a LUKS device now that will cure it. As in "cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/sda3 --cipher=aes-xts-plain64 --offset=1024 --key-file=/dev/urandom --uuid=736dd4f1-8f93-492d-a401-0f6a1df10aac" [14:35] цц [14:35] gartral: then do "sudo update-initramfs -u" in case that is needed to trigger systemd's generator/configuration code [14:37] TJ-: cryptsetup: Option --offset is supported only for open of plain and loopaes devices. [14:38] gartral: I wonder what created that /etc/crypttab then, since I took the options from what you pastebinned [14:38] Hi, I'm using 14.04.3 _x86_64. [14:38] I installed lamp server using tasksel [14:38] I want to install opencart. [14:39] I extracted the file in /var/www/ [14:39] however, I don't know the ip address needed to access opencart in a browser [14:39] TJ-: the installer [14:41] gartral: unless something major has changed I cannot imagine where that option came from though, it doesn't make sense for LUKS devices at all [14:41] I referred a tutorial on digital oceans, but I cannot make it work [14:42] TJ-: it's likely because I had to reinstall because first time through I had enabled FDE by accident and forgot the password, so I reinstalled without FDE telling the installer to "wipe and start fresh" [14:42] gartral: I've used very sophisticated LUKs encryption configurations for years but I've not come across what you're seeing, in terms of the raw device not being LUKS even though the config files all match up and declare it to be used as encrypted [14:43] how do u resize when using lvm [14:43] philip_: expand or contract? [14:43] gartral: FDE shouldn't affect encrypted swap though [14:43] philip_: "lvextend' [14:43] expand [14:44] TJ-: what about the fact that the swap was partially encrypted by the fde? [14:45] hi guys - I'm looking for an IT job in Nice/France, maybe some1 can share some pointers where should I start searching? [14:45] Google. [14:45] workopolis for France? [14:45] moster.fr if it exists? [14:45] !ot [14:45] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [14:46] monster* [14:46] ha [14:46] I think somehow systemd is trying to unlock cryptswap1 just after cryptsetup has done luksFormat on it, but *before* "luksOpen" ... because as crypsetup knows it is for 'swap' no passphrase should be asked for [14:46] red or blue shirt today? [14:47] TJ-: I'll just disable encryption on it [14:47] ok [14:47] gartral: the LUKS header at the start of a raw device is the only way to recognise an encrypted device. systemd obviously must see such header and more-over it must read /etc/crypttab because it even tells you the device-mapper name for it (cryptswap1) [14:47] gartral: I think that will be quicker for now :) [14:48] TJ-: just comment out what's in /etc/crypttab? [14:48] will like to extend the harddisk http://paste.ubuntu.com/12071544/ [14:49] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12071544/ === SmOkE_RU is now known as SmOkE_RU_off [14:49] gartral: Yes, and the associated line /etc/fstab ... I think systemd will know enough to carry on making sda3 swap at reboot [14:50] philip_: you aren't trying to do this on a running system, are you? [14:50] i want to do this on a running system [14:51] philip_: abort! never resize a live, running filesystem! [14:51] philip_ you can't repair a car while you're driving [14:51] philip_: I suspect you may need "pvresize" first, before the VG will see the extra space [14:52] gartral: fiddlesticks! LVM is built for online reshape/resize! [14:52] TJ-: the LVM container, yes... not the filsystems contained inside! [14:52] it is still a test am doing ,so how can this be done [14:53] gartral: Yes... you never done "resize2fs /" ? I do it all the time [14:53] hey, i know it's not ubuntu related, butcou.d anybody tell me how to search for channels in irc?

[14:54] thanks man [14:54] TJ yes...so i want to increase the 560GB [14:55] TJ_:yes...so i want to increase the 560GB [14:55] good for you [14:55] TJ-: wish me luck, going down for reboot [14:56] TJ-:yes...so i want to increase the 560GB [14:56] philip_: STOP repeating yourse¨lf [14:56] philip_: So, first you need to use 'gdisk' or 'parted' to add another partition to sda that uses up all that new free space. After you've done that, tell the kernel to re-read the partition table with "kpartx -a" or "partprobe", then you can add the new partition to the existing vg-root with "pvcreate /dev/sdaX" (X being the new partition), and then "vgextend vg-root /dev/sdX" [14:57] philip_: at that point the new space is available for 'lvextend' [14:58] TJ- pls can you kindly give me a step be step command to do that...will really appreciate [14:59] philip_: I just did! [14:59] TJ-: welp... now we've done it... swap's not loading automatically [14:59] anyone using smplayer? i set it as default player. when i click on new songs they open with smplayer only if smplayer is not already running? how to solve it? [14:59] gartral: OK, so systemd logs then - it took over all this early-boot stuff [15:00] since its an ubuntu server i cant use gdisk but rather parted( how will i use the parted command ).thank you [15:00] TJ-: wait... wait... do you still have my pastbin of /etc/fstab?! [15:00] philip_: of course you can use gdisk - it is a command-line tool [15:01] gartral: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12071054/ [15:02] is there kindle for ubuntu [15:02] Abhijit, you probably set it "enqueue in smplayer" press play to...well...play [15:02] linuxuz3r, ebookreader? [15:02] no kindle [15:02] TJ-: is line 13 *supposed* to be commented out?! [15:03] okay....pls tj a step by step like saying, use parted -l then and so on and so [15:03] linuxuz3r, turning ubuntu into a kindle ?? [15:03] no a kindle app for ubuntu [15:03] badbodh, its not enquied. i checkd its playlist option it do not show the new song i just clicked [15:03] kindle = ebook [15:03] Good morning. After yesterday's software update, anytime I watch a video from chrome/firefox/opera, etc. in full-screen, coming out of fullscreen locks the desktop up and it becomes unresponsive to where I have to power-off the machine [15:04] Doesn't matter which video driver, browser, location, etc. I use - same results [15:04] Abhijit, do you have any other player? set it as default and see if same problem occurs [15:04] linuxuz3r, calibre handles .mobi fine [15:04] OerHeks, then, Windwos = Computer Operating Sysetm. [15:04] badbodh, it works with other players such as vlc. i want to use smplayer [15:04] philip_: If you're administering a complex system with hardware RAID and LVM then it is your responsibility to figure out howknow how to use [15:04] Abhijit, he didn't made his question clear, as i understood him fine, he pulled the wrong leg. [15:05] philip_: the tools. I've given you a comprehensive outline of what is needed; the rest is up to you. [15:06] philip_ you have to be willing to learn something new and do an effort for it [15:06] Oh, and I am running 14.04 LTS 64-bit and have a NVidia Quatro 2000 card in it [15:06] OerHeks, okey! no offence though! [15:06] *Nvidia Quadro 2000, sorry [15:07] but hope using a RAID and LVm is good for use [15:08] Abhijit, ubuntu and smplayer version? ek bar preferences>playlist me bhi dekh lo. [15:08] :-o [15:09] can one use a ubuntu desktop live cd for an ubuntu server. [15:09] kvgeorge1, that happens here sometimes too, chrome/firefox: solution, alt tab, to switch desktoppanel, and back to restore. [15:10] badbodh, what if I was from south? [15:10] OerHeks, I will try that. This wasn't happening before the update though....is this normal? [15:10] OerHeks: there is a web app for it [15:11] Abhijit, are you ? [15:11] kvgeorge1, not normal no. it is a little anoying, but with alt-tab switch i can solve it [15:11] no [15:11] OerHeks, I will try it. [15:11] Hopefully, I won't blow-up and have to power off again [15:12] linuxuz3r, you make no sense .. webap for kindle... you asked for an ereader/ebookreader that handles kindle format [15:12] see i dont know if kindle books are drmed [15:12] !info calibre [15:12] i need a book that i can read in all os [15:12] calibre (source: calibre): e-book converter and library management.

[16:11] of course [16:11] couldve sworn the last time i did this the dhcp gave itself an ip address [16:12] It may of gotten it from another DHCP server [16:13] so i have my server connected to a switch, no router is involved here... if i set the address to 192.168.1.1/24 should i also set the gateway to 192.168.1.1? [16:14] set the gateway to 192.168.1.1 on the dhcp server itself [16:15] Yes [16:16] in dhcp.conf should i set option routers 192.168 [16:16] 192.168.1.1 [16:16] If that's what your router is set to, then yes [16:17] i have no router really..just this dhcp server connected to a switch...set the dhcp server to a static ip of 192.168.1.1/24 [16:17] thinking router also means gateway [16:24] Hi, I have Ubuntu 14 and windows 7 on my lap top but I can find the drivers for all my boards to run on Windows 7. Is it possible to fix this using ubuntu? [16:25] daniel_ you mean, use ubuntu to look on the internet for drivers? [16:27] so i picked up one of those usb flash drives that actually ssds with actual ssd controllers, with the intention of using it as a full install i carry around with me and test things out on different machines [16:27] No, I tried that. I believe there is no drivers for this boards to run Windows 7. Using Ubuntu everything runs perfectly. I was wondering if I could use the ubuntu "drivers" to make my Windows 7 see my boards [16:28] but when installing 14.04.3, i cannot get it to boot on other machines, or even the one it was installed on once i've removed it. [16:28] even with uuids for drives on a gpt partition with grub installed onto the correct usb drive and with no other drives on the machine [16:28] daniel_ no, guess not [16:28] it's fine until i remove it and put it back in, or go to a different machine. [16:28] daniel_ windows recognizes only three OS's: Windows, Windows and Windows [16:30] Yep, this is just a desperate measure. I don't know what else to do [16:30] hey [16:30] notdaniel: Are you getting any kind of an error? [16:31] yep [16:31] #exit [16:31] daniel_, try ##windows ? [16:31] FrankFromHR: nope, install is fine, i can see GRUB on reboot, it's great. but once i remove it and attempt to use somewhere else, GRUB can no longer be found, i can't get the machine to see it at all [16:31] notdaniel: and you're sure it's installing grub to the USB drive? [16:31] FrankFromHR: and then even the machine it was installed on cannot see it anymore [16:31] Thanks everyone for the attention === sdx32 is now known as sdx23 === abhishek is now known as Guest77876 [16:32] FrankFromHR: well, i know that it THINKS it is. i am always selecting the correct device. but then again, one issue i had yesterday was i tried running boot-repair and that prevented me from being able to boot from the internal drive already inside the machine [16:33] this usb drive always shows up as /dev/sda even if i'm not booting from it, but shouldnt it not matter with uuids anyway? [16:33] i did an automatic uefi install on gpt to make sure it would use uuids and that i wasnt screwing up partitioning [16:33] notdaniel: You might want to try disabling the internal drive and then doing a fresh install to the USB disk, then configured it to use UUIDs for the partitions.. [16:34] ive done that [16:34] i did it on machines with no otehr HDs [16:34] notdaniel: hmm [16:34] still same issue once removing this install drive [16:34] I need to edit a video clip .. it's 3 minutes long, I want to isolate the car accident. What's the best software to edit videos with on ubuntu 15.04 [16:34] which is weird, it totally does reboot fine until i remove it and try elsewhere and come back [16:34] pokergod, no such thing as best. openshot is pretty much point and click [16:35] notdaniel: That's really weird.. I wonder if the SSD controller is doing something strange with UUIDs.. [16:35] pokergod: try shotcut or pitivi [16:35] when i try to access a usb thumbdrive. it just lights up and it won't mount [16:35] any suggestions? [16:35] pokergod: avconv will extract a segment of video easily [16:35] Melio: is it formatted? Have you checked dmesg? [16:36] FrankFromHR: it's possible. i've definitely done portable installs on non-ssd flash drives using uuids and it's been fine, excepting the fact that is's on a flash drive [16:36] i can check dmesg [16:36] thank you [16:37] it see's it [16:37] i would like to use the 3.13 kernel from trusty in my vivid installation. is that possible? [16:37] notdaniel: Are you plugging it into the same USB port after removing it? [16:37] anyone have any ideas on how to troubleshoot files created by a network connection? [16:37] mcphail it's showing up in dmesg as a usb drive [16:38] where can i change default init level in ubuntu, please? from 5 to 3, like a server. [16:38] /etc/inittab not exists [16:39] I just tried to recover my system from an image i made using part image, but it is not working and i think i am in a lot of trouble. When i try to recover the image i get the message "The partition is to small to be restored: Original partition size:........156814540800 bytes Destination partition size:.....156342681600 bytes" [16:40] ok here's my dmesg, why isnt unbuntu automounting this. http://pastebin.com/kDEgWQeN [16:40] i dont think my partition has changed in size, i havent changed the parition size. maybe the file is currupt. What is my best course of action, this backup is very important to me. [16:41] Melio, check fdisk -l # is this exfat ? [16:41] notdaniel: I wonder, is the USB device using usb_modeswitch to flip the device into SSD mode? hat would explain why it can't be seen after a cold reboot [16:41] ok [16:41] Hey, I've got a custom Unity .desktop file that I made to launch various PDF files easily, but I can't figure out how to make it so I can right-click the icon and switch between open windows (like I can with Chrome) [16:42] I guess it has to do with the launcher icon not being associated with evince? [16:42] Melio: can you mount /dev/sdc1 manually? is it an exfat drive? [16:43] x4w3: I've not tried to do that, but I wonder if it's as simple as telling lightdm not to start at boot [16:43] mcphail, i doubt it. I don't know what format this is. it's probably a ubuntu install iso [16:43] I'll mount it manually see what happens [16:43] ok [16:45] hmm since it doesnt know what FS it is [16:45] i'm guessing this is unformatted [16:45] Melio: or exfat [16:45] how can i tell [16:45] try mounting it exfat [16:45] is that even a mount option? [16:46] Melio: I think you need to install some fuse driver for exfat to work. No idea, really. I just reformat them [16:46] Melio: if you don't have anything important on the drive, format it to something sensible [16:46] tgm4883: i uninstall Xorg, lightgdm, gdm and all relationed with X with --purge for example libX11.* and system/init continue charging X and blocking my runleve 3 :). [16:47] format it with what? [16:47] gparted? [16:47] Melio: that would be fine [16:47] TJ: i am not sure how to find that out, but i'll check [16:48] FrankFromHR: sometimes yes, somtimes no. one machine has crappy usb ports so i switch it, but on other machines yeah, same problem [16:48] ok formatting it ext3 [16:48] FrankFromHR: shoudn't that not matter with uuids though [16:48] x4w3: oh, you do it in grub http://askubuntu.com/questions/479468/how-do-i-start-unity-manually-upon-boot [16:48] !runlevel | x4w3 [16:48] x4w3: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. [16:48] hmm, i want to take images to a printer [16:48] i might need to format this vfat or something generic the printer software can read [16:49] How do I make a .desktop file list currently opened windows in the right-click menu, I guess is what I'm asking [16:49] Melio: yep [16:49] notdaniel: start the PC from a live ISO, or a regular installation. monitor the kernel log ("tail -f /var/log/kern.log") and insert the USB device. Look for messages that indicate the device appears under an initial USB vendor:product ID and then changes to another [16:50] are there intel driver available to download for 14.04 ? [16:50] Nevermind, I fixed it (changing the gnome-open commands to evince worked) [16:51] is the kubuntu 15.04 good for notebooks (old). Thx [16:51] ?? [16:51] notdaniel: It shouldn't, but maybe it's something happening with the usb controller. [16:51] hmm. i'll format it ntfs [16:51] TJ-: ok i'll do that now. it doesnt matter if the flash drive in question has ubuntu on it, right? i reformatted it but should still activate the same way [16:51] cause fat3 errors [16:51] alket-web, intel is standard supported in the kernel. [16:51] when creating a local repo, what directory path is the installer looking for ? /ubuntu/? or /dists/? thanks [16:51] Could someone help me identify partition numbers 2,4,5. i am unsure of what they are and how i can find more info about them: http://pastebin.com/CrMNM7Gk [16:51] OerHeks: but intel releases some new updates as third party [16:51] maniacoDpr: give it a try. If you need something lighter it is easy to switch [16:52] maniacoDpr: no pm please [16:52] notdaniel: correct [16:52] ok, sorry [16:53] maniacoDpr: no problem. The beauty of ubuntu is, if you don't like it, all you have lost is the half-hour it takes to install [16:54] mcphail: that's true [16:54] maniacoDpr: and if one desktop manager is too heavy, you can switch to another. A lot of people recommend lubuntu. I have never tried it [16:55] tgm4883 mcphail i configurated grub with text and console modes and without quiet splash (i don't know if it's important comment line and not leave empty GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""), i will try repair grub, or use upstart instead of systemv [16:55] maniacoDpr: but you can change kubuntu to lubuntu with a simple command [16:55] TJ-: http://pastebin.com/eePSpYMG [16:55] so that looks like a yes [16:55] mcphail: how? [16:55] I hate Miggers [16:56] or not actually? [16:56] !ot | ndh [16:56] ndh: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [16:56] maniacoDpr: "sudo apt-get install whateverotherdesktopyouwant", log out and log back in to the other [16:56] OerHeks: we don't want that crap in !ot either [16:56] notdaniel: that's a straight-forward USB Mass Storage device [16:56] Pici, sorry, i should have used !language or !coc [16:57] mcphail: aha, ok! Sorry, i am new with linux. and i have used a cople of times. and now i want to learn more. thx for your time :-) [16:57] why some windows don't remeber their size and position. [16:57] notdaniel: the other idea that occurred to me was if it's installed as UEFI but all the other PCs and the default boot on the same PC is BIOS [16:57] can i fix this? [16:57] maniacoDpr: enjoy! [16:57] for example gnome terminal, steam... [16:57] loa: remember after what? [16:58] reisio, after i change them. [16:58] reisio, for example i want terminal fullscreen [16:58] TJ-: most definitely all the machines in question are uefi, and it also doesnt explain why the machine i use to install it cannot do so either after removing and coming back [16:58] so you want to load in the same place each time despite having moved them? [16:58] loa: steam is a "unique" piece of software. It will always do its own thing. It doesn't follow normal window management rules [16:59] you can force anything you like of course [16:59] mcphail, ok... go away steam... what about default terminal app? [16:59] with devilspie, or wmctrl, or other things [16:59] i think i tried devilspie already. [16:59] loa: not sure. I'm not at an ubuntu box just now to check but I think it opens in 80-column mode by default [17:00] TJ-: i can try it without to be safe i suppose? it'll still do uefi as long as it's gpt yeah [17:00] er, uuids [17:00] loa: there may be a flag to open it fullscreen [17:01] loa: I suppose 80-column mode is what most people expect when they open a terminal [17:02] mcphail, it starts exactly like this https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25725476/screenshot-2015.08.13-20%3A02%3A12.png [17:03] loa: I can't access that link from this machine, unfortunately. [17:05] when creating a local repo, what directory path is the installer looking for ? /ubuntu/? or /dists/? thanks [17:05] loa: I'm guessing it will be a default 80-column window. You can try changing the default profile as that may have an option for fullscreen [17:05] what program can i install that will let me change DNS servers through GUI in mate? [17:05] loa, the size in rows/colomns can be set in preferences > profile, not the position AFAIK [17:05] ok. The kubuntu 15.04 doesn't rulez in my CompaqMini :_( the install is trapped [17:06] reisio, ok... thx for devilspie... i set it to maximize it, verticaly and horizontaly. [17:06] loa: gj [17:08] Hello! Can you recommend some package & tool for ubuntu to get started with video (stream) mofication project? C# / C++ Where I might find support? [17:09] Cs123, what mean "mofication"? [17:09] Cs123, ffmpeg? === tcpman is now known as Guest35795 [17:09] I'd like to take live feed from web-cam, and filter some high values out for example... [17:09] guessing modification [17:10] Cs123: probably #ffmpeg [17:11] exists chkconfig in ubuntu? [17:12] reisio: thanks - but not packed video, but live feed from my web-cam, which I modify and show on the screen.. [17:12] I have a question why do i not get but 3 things under system in the software center? [17:12] Cs123: #ffmpeg [17:12] x4w3: ask apt-file [17:12] x4w3: no [17:12] ishitaka: looking for something else? [17:12] x4w3, update-rc.d [17:12] ok, THanks, I'll look into it.. [17:13] Im looking for nmap and other programs and its not allowing me to downlaod them because they are not showing up? [17:13] loa: i use it, tq [17:14] can somebody explain me about initramfs scripts. I create one scripts in /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top and when i run update-initramfs -u i see that my script executes in my current environment, why it is happen? [17:15] for example i write in that script echo 1 > /tmp/test.txt and when i run update-initramfs -u i see that file appear in /tmp/ [17:16] ishitaka: how're you looking? [17:16] All of the normal programs that you download are not there under the Software center how do i get them to show up? because my other computer they show up? Any help guys and gals? [17:16] Through the Ubuntu Software Center icon gui [17:17] ishitaka: if you're looking for nmap, i installed it using sudo apt-get install nmap [17:17] ishitaka: type that in terminal [17:17] it wont let me [17:17] what did it show? [17:17] I have a runaway rsync process, kill -9 does nothing, what do I do? [17:18] invalid operation nmap [17:18] oh, it ended, nvm. [17:18] you missed the "install" [17:18] ishitaka, first do sudo apt-get update [17:18] sudo apt-get install nmap [17:19] SchrodingersScat: :) === james is now known as Guest4777 [17:30] Hey how to run gcc on linux [17:30] any command [17:30] Dark_cloud, gcc test.c [17:36] Hello, I have a friend with a laptop that has a failing hard drive. I want to run ubuntu on it from a flash drive but it is slow . Dmesg shows the drive errors , how do I make it ignore the failing drive? [17:37] take the drive out [17:38] Johnny_linux I can't some moron super glued the drive cover on [17:38] D`oh! [17:39] make the bios boot to usb drive 1rst order [17:40] Johnny_linux I am doing that. Ubuntu is seeing the hard drive and trying to mount it [17:40] cut the cord [17:40] lol [17:41] long shot, allow disc utility fix errors [17:42] SchrodingersScat use rsync --progress to know how much time remains [17:43] Johnny_linux is there a way from the live USB drive I made to remove Ata support [17:44] not sure [17:44] for my dhcp server i keep getting "no subnet declaration for eth0" my dhcp server is just a simple laptop connected to a layer 2 switch(no router) & no dns server.... could someone give me a proper configuration [17:44] just break the glue sel and take it out [17:44] seal [17:44] MANNYLNJ: yes, but why [17:45] Reisio to stop ubuntu from trying to access a failing drive that can not be removed.

[17:47] ahh tahts the freaking crap then Armadillos [17:47] Okay, spamming the word spacer (not space) works [17:48] i should've went with ubuntu server 15.04 instead of desktop... well are there any configurations i must do to knock off network manager [17:48] fellayaboy: Here's mine: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12072927/ [17:48] I have a machine where update-grub takes 5-10 mins to run.

I have a maching with a brand new ssd and have concluded that i want to try ubuntu. Thing is i want both server and desktop so I am not quite sure which one to begin with [18:16] snowkidind: well, server and desktop are really the same. The desktop just has additional software (like a DE) [18:16] snowkidind: at the base, they are both the same [18:16] ok so i still have to put on apache etc [18:17] why would someone get the server an not the desktop? [18:17] snowkidind: because most people don't run a graphical environment on a server [18:17] reasonable. [18:18] snowkidind: the server installer does allow you to install some server apps (such as apache), but you can install those later as well [18:18] snowkidind: what's your reason for puting a graphical environment on there? [18:18] basically setting up LAMP but i need to send emails and my isp blocks port 25. hoping for better luch than deb [18:19] i rarely turn it on but i occasionally do [18:19] i look at my logfiles with it mostly [18:19] the monitor for the machine helps as a motivation as well [18:20] snowkidind: I'd install server, then install a graphical environment (but not a *buntu-desktop package) then just start it when necessary [18:21] you think it weighs that heavily on a development server? [18:22] its not getting many external requests at all [18:22] snowkidind: no, but I like to keep production and staging as close as I can (I suppose I wouldn't actually install a graphical enviroment there, but instead just SSH in and access what I need from the command line) [18:23] im using appledouble most of the time [18:23] yea I don't know what that is [18:24] just a way to have the linux directory structiure on my regular machine without terminal - right in the finder [18:25] so i edit the files on my mac software (im a bbedit / xcode guy) and save directly to the server [18:25] without ftp === keviv is now known as Guest16154 === Invisible is now known as Guest63503 === Guest16154 is now known as keviv [18:34] exit === __Trullo is now known as _Trullo [18:47] Speak Spanish???

If you're looking for Windows support, there is ##windows, but that doesn't have microsoft employees either. [19:16] any Windows chanel? [19:16] UFO69, ##windows [19:17] where can i buy new windows? [19:17] home depot [19:18] ObrienDave: oh good, I had some questions about lag bolts.. [19:18] UFO69, 'Heads Up' this is not a windows channel but ubuntu support. [19:18] UFO69: you can also probably buy windows from microsoft.com ... or Home Depot.. [19:18] FrankFromHR, unless there was a shift in the galactic space/time continuum, i don't think so ;P [19:19] and how much cost new windows? [19:20] UFO69: This channel is for Ubuntu support only. Your next comment about Windows will earn you a ban. [19:20] UFO69 wrong channel [19:20] OK [19:20] this is microsoft chanel? [19:21] UFO69: Please join #ubuntu-ops if you wish to discuss your ban. [19:21] UFO69 stop [19:24] /70/70 [19:26] Bit of a strange problem here. Plymouth (boot splash) works fine, but TTYs are black/blank. I can type in TTYs and manage to log in, and I can send commands (which work; like 'sudo shutdown -r now'), but I can't see any of the text. [19:27] Tynach, Have you tweaked the resolution in grub, or in general? [19:27] Upon further inspection, it's trying to use the 'vesafb' framebuffer. The kernel's config file indeed says that the vesafb kernel module is built into the kernel... But modprobe's modules.builtin does NOT list it. [19:28] wileee, that was the first thing I tried. I also tried various combinations of the different things in /etc/default/grub. === N is now known as Guest48418 [19:28] Tynach, Ah, just curious, not an answer here is all. [19:29] Such as different settings for GRUB_GFXMODE and GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX, as well as using nomodeset and video=stuff. [19:29] It doesn't seem to want to even attempt to use uvesafb instead, which is a loadable kernel module (rather than statically built). [19:30] Tynach, nvidia ? [19:30] AMD. [19:31] Under the open source drivers, the same thing happens, except it takes a few seconds for the TTY, and then it shows up. Switching from one TTY to another has the same delay the first time, but afterward the switch is instant. So from TTY1 to TTY2, there's a delay, but going back to TTY1 is instant, and then from there back to TTY2 is instant. [19:31] Under fglrx, they never actually show up. [19:31] They DID show up under fglrx before the upgrade to 15.04. [19:31] Tynach, GRUB_TERMINAL=console is commented ? [19:33] ioria, yes. That line is commented. === aruns_ is now known as indistylo [19:33] Tynach, and GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480 ? [19:34] No, I have it set to 1920x1080. Because that worked on 14.10. [19:34] Tynach: If you're not using proprietary drivers then make sure that you're also not passing "nomodeset" as a kernel parameter. [19:34] Jordan_U, I am using proprietary drivers. [19:34] Jordan_U, I've also tried with and without nomodeset. [19:35] Tynach: Have you tried with the open source drivers and without nomodeset? You can't use Kernel Mode Setting and the proprietary ATI drivers at the same time (at least not yet, with AMDGPU you will be able to and things will generally be a lot nicer). [19:36] Jordan_U, I already answered that. I'll repost. [19:36] Under the open source drivers, the same thing happens, except it takes a few seconds for the TTY, and then it shows up. Switching from one TTY to another has the same delay the first time, but afterward the switch is instant. So from TTY1 to TTY2, there's a delay, but going back to TTY1 is instant, and then from there back to TTY2 is instant. [19:36] Tynach, i'd try to uncomment the first and the second , restore the second to original value sudo update-grub ... and if it fails reverse it ... but never occurred to me... so it's just an idea [19:37] ioria, could you be more specific than 'the first and the second'? [19:37] Tynach, GRUB_TERMINAL=console 1° [19:37] Tynach, and GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480 2° [19:39] ioria, I'll try that, but if it works, it's still not a solution. In 14.10, I was able to have a full 1920x1080 screen resolution in the TTYs, and even here in 15.04 Plymouth and Grub are able to use 1920x1080. [19:40] Tynach, i see [19:41] hey guys I have an acer R3-131T and i cant get ubuntu to boot the live usb. I am not sure what the problem is [19:41] Tynach: Please pastebin the output of "dmesg" after booting with the open source drivers, and without "nomodeset". [19:42] ioria, would 800x600 be acceptable as well, or should I stick with 640x480? [19:42] Also, it might be worth noting that I have a dual-monitor setup. [19:43] Tynach: Fair warning, I don't personally want to try to troubleshoot the case where you're using proprietary drivers, so making it work with the open drivers and KMS is what my goal is. [19:43] Tynach, see Jordan_U comment [19:43] Jordan_U, it already works fine with the open source drivers, minus a few seconds delay before the TTY shows up for the first time. [19:44] Tynach: Ahh, when you said "Under the open source drivers, the same thing happens" I interpreted that to mean that with the open source drivers you also couldn't see any text when switching to a tty. [19:45] Jordan_U, I suppose I shouldn't have said 'same thing happens', but rather, that the behavior is still different than it was in 14.10. [19:45] Of course, back in 14.10, my card wasn't supported by the open source drivers. Only the closed source ones.

[20:01] I use the backups utility, I think it is called deja dup. [20:02] OneM_Industries it looks like deja dup is not advanced or complicated enough to set specific times ... look for a differnet way to !backup [20:05] OneM_Industries, looks like MonkeyDust is correct there. [20:06] I turned mouse sensitivty all the way up in the UI, not fast enough, what next? [20:06] OneM_Industries, I used a 3rd party called timeshift as a test, worked nicely, good stuff in the ubuntu repos however. [20:07] Joel, Check out xset I use xset mouse 1 1 in the cli to set mine, that is a slow down command [20:08] # up is faster [20:08] Joel, man xset gives info [20:10] wileee, doesn't seem to make anything faster despite the values I pass it [20:12] Joel, Not sure beyond that, better help is in order here. ;) === sorinello_ is now known as sorinello [20:19] has anyone had success installing photoshop to ubuntu yet? can't seem to install the visual C++ 2008 exe [20:19] !wine | joijmo [20:19] joijmo: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [20:19] yes, see what wine appdb says about it [20:20] Joel, Testing it, first # is speed 2nd sensitivity, if that might help [20:20] joijmo, I did that once, someone packaging an EXE for wine [20:20] let me check my history [20:20] hi, unable to install any windows applications under wine in ubuntu 15.04 its giving out Runtime error 204 at 00CFXXXXX, any help or alternative to wine ?

[20:59] I have a friend that bought a brand new laptop from Acer. [20:59] Umeaboy: neato [21:00] It came preinstalled with Windows 8 and I have disabled Secure Boot, but the installation for Ubuntu 15.04 x86_64 doesn't work. [21:01] It get to the dots and as it loads the screen gets black. [21:01] Windows works fine to boot into and use. [21:02] Umeaboy: Do you know how to remove the "quiet" and "splash" kernel parementers when booting the LiveCD/USB? [21:02] Yes, I did that. [21:04] I'm not at home at the moment so can't investigate much. [21:04] Umeaboy: Do you see messages at boot when you do? If so, what is the last message printed? [21:04] Thou I saw an -110 error with the mmcblock [21:04] I hope they don't matter, [21:05] Umeaboy better come back when you have the laptop with you [21:05] I'm using it now, but I'm at a fast food restaurant so I'll do more when I get home, [21:06] Umeaboy: mmcblk generally refers to an SD card. [21:06] Talk to ya later? [21:06] Yes, it has a imbedded memory card instead of a HDD. [21:06] Don't ask me why. [21:07] embedded I mean. [21:07] I'll be back within 30 minutes. [21:07] Bye for now.

[21:22] yes [21:22] ls [21:36] question: I'm setting up a server in vmware and I'm having some issues with networking === gareth_ is now known as cliftonts [21:36] I added a new network adapter, but ubuntu isn't detecting that as an interface [21:37] not in ifconfig [21:37] hello === carlo_ is now known as Guest96385 [21:37] i need a suggestion on software. i want to play music with my keyboard :) [21:38] http://puu.sh/jAxgQ/619c45f8e6.png this is in the output of lshw -C network [21:38] surgy: what version of ubuntu? [21:38] how do I enable it? [21:38] wafflejock, kubuntu 14.04 kernal 3.19 [21:38] surgy: vmpk package might be what you want [21:38] surgy: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/vmpk [21:39] if I try to bring it up it just says unknown interface eth1 [21:39] ...any help? [21:39] if i have 3 groups, A,B, and C. how do i give read and wright permissions to groups A and B and only read permissions to group C? [21:40] wafflejock, it looks that way but when you read the discritpion it says "it doesnt produce any sound by itself." [21:40] i seem to only be able to change permisions for the group that owns the file [21:40] surgy: right you need qsynth to actually make the sounds [21:40] surgy, take a look at ubuntu-studio softwarelist https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/PackageList [21:40] surgy: midi works by just sending little messages of how long a key was pressed and what note it corresponds to and how quickly it was pressed (for real midi keyboards) [21:41] TechMonger: By using ACLs rather than classic UNIX permissions. [21:41] surgy: if you get qsynth you also need to get a sound font file and load it in there [21:41] surgy: I just got done doing this with a real midi keyboard [21:41] Jordan_U, what is acl? [21:41] !acl | TechMonger [21:41] access control lists [21:41] ? [21:41] TechMonger: it gives you more granular control over multiple users and group permissions on files [21:42] hmm [21:42] TechMonger: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissionsACLs [21:42] wafflejock, OerHeks i like a lot of those packages in the studio distro.... can i just install all of the ubuntu studio programs without messing up my kubuntu install? [21:42] oh wow... [21:42] permissions are such a pain [21:43] surgy: yeah I considered this too, not sure if you can have the packages from ubuntu-studio installed without messing things up since jackd and pulseaudio seem to have some amount of conflict (there is a package that's supposed to resolve this but I ended up needing to manually kill pulseaudio or jackd to switch) [21:43] surgy, sure, i personally use ubuntustudio-photography package, gimp darktable and such [21:43] surgy: both pulseaudio and jackd want to take control of the audio hardware, by default you're using pulseaudio but I needed jackd to hook the keyboard up to qsynth [21:43] wafflejock, yeah thats too much....i just want to mess around and im a little burnt from the effort it took to setup my graphics tablet lol [21:44] is there anyone here that can help with my problem? [21:44] surgy: yeah took me a few hours of fiddling... lots of fun with a real keyboard though... the sound font files have tons of fun noises [21:45] tobyj: If anyone watching the channel can help, they will. [21:45] hello, how to monitor every ports traffic [21:45] zhxk: can use wireshark or tcpdump, depends on what you're trying to monitor...maybe ntop [21:46] wafflejock, can i manage the traffic? [21:46] wafflejock, yeah if i had a real keyboard id definately be down...... but i was just gonna mess around.... i suppose i can wait. i was just hoping to install a package or two and start playing [21:47] surgy: yeah it's not a terrible amount of work really just a matter of getting a few tools in place to help connect the midi note generating thing to the part that synthesizes the sounds, but yeah not just a single package install thing was more reading than doing for me [21:48] zhxk: can you be more specific about how you want to manage it? I'm not super familiar with network management tools available in terms of blocking sites... I know you can configure iptables to block connections in or out but there might be something simpler/higher someone else here knows of [21:50] surgy: maybe could do a LiveUSB of ubuntu studio [21:52] hey everyone; anyone use radiotray here ? i'm on ubuntu 14.04 and i cant get radiotray's bookmarks.xml to be edited. any ideas on how to fix? i make changes but nothing happens [21:52] arooni: i did use the right-click menu from radiotray [21:53] arooni: typically config files are read at startup are you restarting the program after edits? [21:53] k1l_, i think thats gonna hve to bwe the way to do it; wish there was a way to edit bookmarks.xml [21:53] arooni: did you restart it? try to start it from a terminal and see if it says an error there [21:54] i even removed the bookmarks.xml from /usr/share/radiotray and it still works. i also tried grepping for a new menu item i added via the app and i cant find where radiotray is writing to [21:54] yes i tried restarting [21:55] wafflejock, maybe [21:55] its obviously ignoring the /usr/share/radiotray/bookmarks.xml [21:55] ~/.local/share/radiotray/bookmarks.xml [21:56] arooni: did you try the "reload bookmarks" setting? [21:56] hi people can you tell me how to get the latest version of g++ ? [21:57] Problem solved [21:57] a ha! [21:57] so why was there a /usr/share/radiotray directory AND a ~/.local/share/radiotray directory [21:57] for the same app? [21:57] with seemingly identical files [21:57] arooni: typically user settings vs system wide [21:57] so apps typically look in .local or /usr/ for config settings? [21:57] xrisk: What is your end goal? [21:57] arooni: so shared settings are used if user specific isn't found [21:58] arooni: it uses the users setting in the users home. [21:58] so if i want to make app config changes [21:58] i should always look first in ~/.local [21:58] Jordan_U: I installed Ubuntu 15.04 andthe version of g++ is has does not support some of the new C++ features. [21:58] arooni: yeah ~/.config or ~/.local somewhere in your home folder will be user specific settings [21:58] arooni: its a user setting. so its in the users home. [21:58] xrisk: What features specifically are you missing? [21:58] didnt see any of ~.local/ in dpkg --listfiles radiotray [21:58] arooni: because each user has their own home [21:58] im the only one who uses this machine [21:59] but i guess that doesnt matter [21:59] arooni: yeah it can create those files dynamically [21:59] Jordan_U: For example, the `auto` iterator. [21:59] arooni: if "your mother" on your pc wants other channels to be in radiotray it doesnt work with only one config file :) [21:59] learning something new every day [21:59] arooni: lots of programs will make a config for the user if one isn't present the first time they run [21:59] or anytime they run [22:01] bingo! [22:01] moved the bookmarks folder over to ~/local/blah and it worked great [22:01] thanks folks [22:01] couocu [22:02] Our conversation it is crypted,? [22:02] hi. anyone around using a displaylink based dockingstation? [22:02] hydral, nope [22:03] Cebot|work, If you need support, share the issue with the channel. [22:04] IT's very psychedelisk [22:04] xrisk: According to https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx0x.html , that feature was added in gcc 4.4, and thus should be avalable in the g++ 4.9.2 shipped in Ubuntu 15.04. What problem are you having with the auto keyword? [22:05] hydral, do you have an Ubuntu support question? [22:05] wileee, i'm just curious if someone got it to work yet. displaylink offers only a version for their drivers tested on ubuntu. i'm currently on suse, but tried kubuntu live cd and installed the driver in the live session, but also no luck... [22:05] hydral: this room is just for support questions/answers about ubuntu, if you want to just chat join #ubuntu-offtopic [22:05] Jordan_U: i will give you a snippet please wait [22:06] Cebot|work, Not sure myself, specific hardware is generally best to state here. ;) [22:06] xrisk: Note that you may need to add -std=c++0x to your g++ invocation. [22:06] Jordan_U: Why is that? === legendal_ is now known as legendallies [22:07] Cebot|work, Does the unit show in lsusb? [22:07] xrisk: Because gcc doesn't default to supporting the latest C and C++ standards because otherwise people might unknowingly start depending on non portable features. [22:07] Jordan_U: I will try that one moment :) [22:07] wileee, yes it does [22:08] Cebot|work, What's it called there? [22:08] i'd be happy already if i could get it to work inside virtualbox with a win7 guest. cuz that is what i need it for. but the windows driver doesn't support the virtualbox gfx driver... [22:08] wileee, sec, i'll check [22:09] wileee, Bus 004 Device 004: ID 17e9:4306 DisplayLink [22:11] Cebot|work: is this about a smartphone? [22:11] Cebot|work, I think that is key info, with a quick google I see kit, in multiple devices I think, certainly helpful here. [22:11] it* [22:12] k1l_, A dock [22:12] a smartphone dock? [22:12] I think a computer, but that is a good question [22:12] k1l_, a usb3 display dock === andre__ is now known as Guest98383 [22:16] wileee, i'm not sure what you mean with you see kit? [22:16] Cebot|work, typo see 't' [22:16] it* [22:17] wileee, i went by the install instructions for ubuntu (on the kubuntu live cd as well as on suse) provided by displaylink.com [22:18] Cebot|work, Commonly we see hardware in many devices, so that lsusb is pertinent it alone hits on google. [22:18] Cebot|work, Sure, I'm not the best help here all I can do is google, better for knowing helpers is all. ;) [22:19] Cebot|work: you got something like a install script or docs? [22:20] Cebot|work, Off topic, but did you know the large hadron runs suse? [22:20] Cebot|work: you are on a live ubuntu? [22:21] wileee, but then, these dockingstations suck big time anyway. even on windows they cause a lot of problems for our colleagues. wish there were any decent (as in reliable for daily office work with lots of web and smaller gfx projects) that is not based on a displaylink chip and has native linux support too [22:21] Cebot|work: because from my understanding of http://www.displaylink.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=29 this seems to work. [22:21] wileee, i remember to have heard about it [22:21] suse halt [22:22] k1l_, displaylink.com has the installer. run it with --noexec --keep to extract the package and look at the install script [22:23] k1l_, not on kubuntu live anymore. tried it the way the described it, didn't get it to work (spent days on trying to get it to work on suse already) [22:23] Cebot|work: i would suggest you make a new thread in that forum i just linked so the specialists could have a look [22:23] Cebot|work: well, i would try a real ubuntu install. [22:25] k1l_, not an option. i'm quite happy to got everything working as i need it now, except for the 3rd monitor. [22:35] Hey guys. The wireless networks just disappeared on my computer and I can't even enable/disable wireless networks. Can anyone help me fix this? [22:36] <_Anna> Hi. I need help from libreOffice users. [22:36] <_Anna> [15:09] CuriousAboutSL: I'd like to uncheck the "data>sort>options>Range contains column labels" option and keep it unchecked. How? After I click OK it returns to being checked. [22:37] Anyone? I'm kind of desperate [22:39] bdjd, THe channel, not me, needs a release and desktop to start with usually. [22:39] any background leading to this as well [22:40] Thanks. Ubuntu 15.04. I was writing a program in android studio. The computer just froze and so I restarted it. [22:40] Now I have no wireless. [22:41] bdjd, This the unity desktop, or is there an android de [22:41] It says I have wlan0 doesn't exist [22:41] bdjd: Is it a usb adapter? [22:41] There's an android ide [22:41] Yes [22:42] thanks, hopefully that will get some interst [22:42] Thanks again [22:42] bdjd: Move it to a different usb port perhaps? [22:42] I tried that [22:42] And I got a different wifi usb adapter [22:42] No change [22:43] bdjd: hmm [22:44] Tried restarting network manager and restarting the network service [22:44] bdjd: might want to check dmesg and see if it registered that it picked up a device === joshua__ is now known as joshumax [22:44] They work. But to no avail [22:44] Frankfromhr bow do I do that? [22:45] bdjd: you can do dmesg | grep -i usb from the terminal [22:46] K [22:46] You want me to tell you it's output? [22:46] bdjd: Sure, do you know how to use pastebin ? [22:47] I cant. The computer won't connect to the Internet and I'm on a smartphone lol. [22:47] bdjd: hah right [22:47] bdjd: pm me whatever looks relevent so we don't spam the channel [22:47] Okay [22:48] FrankFromHR, The wants to see help. [22:48] channel* [22:49] bdjd: paste in the channel then [22:49] Frankfromhr I actually cant...it's like 200 lines long lol [22:50] Maybe yell me what to look for? [22:50] k try this, pull out the wifi adapter [22:50] then try tail -f /var/log/dmesg and then plug in the adapter and see if you see anything that says stuff about a new usb device. [22:51] Jordan_U: Back. [22:51] Nothing about wifi [22:51] hi community, I just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu server, I chose to encrypt the partition, now it asks me to input the passphrase everytime I start the system, is it normal? [22:51] bdjd: anything about a usb device? [22:51] herrkin: kinda pointless otherwise [22:52] I can tell you the last row in a while. [22:52] Yes. Over - current condition [22:52] I think I did it once on ubuntu desktop it only asked me to input login info. [22:52] that's what disk encryption is for, protection from those with physical access (that are also too ignorant to wait until you've unlocked it) [22:52] Then on the latest command it says eth0 link is not ready [22:53] what I wanted by encrypting the partition is just not to let the owners grab the files. if I do that I would have to give the passphrase to them, so there is no point on having it in my case. [22:53] Frankfromhr did you see what I said? [22:54] bdjd: do lshw -C network does it show you anything about wireless interface? [22:55] No [22:55] Frankfromhr no [22:55] It says ethernet interface [22:55] bdjd: k type lsusb does that have anything in the list? [22:56] Nothing about wireless. [22:56] Hm [22:57] bdjd: So it's not being picked up at all [22:57] bdjd: So something else is probably going on [22:58] I'm trying different usb ports [22:58] bdjd: What else do you have plugged in? [22:58] bdjd: keyboard, mouse and ? [22:59] Mouse is plugged in and running just fine [22:59] Umeaboy: You can also take a picture and post a link to it from imgur.com. [22:59] Hello is there any good ways to really optimize your ram [23:00] Frankfromhr mous, keyboard, phone [23:00] Wifi [23:01] bdjd: try disconnecting the phone and reboot with the wifi plugged in.. [23:02] Radix|DR: exploit you mean? [23:02] Radix|DR: What is your end goal? [23:02] Frankfromhr. I just changed the mouse to a different usb and plugged my wifi card on the same place and now it works [23:02] Engineering! [23:02] Lol [23:02] Linux is great in memory-control, Only browsers can mess up my ram AFAIK [23:03] That's seriously engineering in a nutshell. Lolol [23:03] Im running a PocketMine-MP Game server and I want to really use every bit of my dedicated server [23:03] bdjd: Mouse is still working? [23:03] Yes [23:03] FrankFromHR: see? [23:03] It's bdjd [23:04] No clue what just happened [23:04] But...w.e [23:04] Now I can get back to work [23:04] haha [23:04] bdjd: computers.. they keep me in pizza and beer but some days I hate them.. [23:04] jr_: hah [23:04] Yeah. They are kind of like magnets [23:04] You know? [23:04] ....how do they work? [23:05] anyway. Thanks agaibn [23:05] jr_: Np [23:05] I'm going to my a crab and get the shell out of here [23:06] <_Anna> I need help from libreOffice users. I'd like to uncheck the "data>sort>options>Range contains column labels" option and keep it unchecked. How? After I click OK it returns to being checked. === chalcedny is now known as chalcedony [23:16] Anybody on? [23:17] nope [23:20] i asked in #libreoffice but not getting responses. Hopefully here. My husband's Ubuntu 14.04 computer crashed. He's having trouble recovering LibreOffice .odt files [23:20] i asked him to look at the crash log.. he doesn't know how to do that, either? [23:21] well which is it, he wants to know why it crashed, or he wants the .odt files [23:21] chalcedony, Is the install showing from a live? [23:21] does the computer boot at all? [23:21] wankipyrate, yes it rebooted [23:22] wileee, he needs the files, he keeps important things there [23:22] i would like to know what broke so we can keep it from happening [23:22] chalcedony, Sure, and why I asked that question, it is a deep mist now we look through. [23:23] hi [23:23] hello, how can I make glxgears run in a chroot? http://sprunge.us/DNjh already installed the nvidia-346 package [23:23] if i'm really really lucky i can ssh to his box [23:26] chalcedony, I would reread reisio's message. [23:26] wileee, reading up [23:27] since running ubuntu 15.04 i often get "Core temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled" in my syslog/dmesg files and the cpu is indeed quite hot (ls_sensors says usually around 80C). This has not happened in older ubuntu versions or other Linux Os's. What can be the reason for it? [23:27] iv4nnunes: hi [23:27] F6F7: kernel "regression" [23:27] My fan is definitely not dirty and it works fine on some other OSs (but the overheating cpu also is the case on debian 8 for example) [23:27] or less likely, userspace regression [23:27] chalcedony, we do one thing at a time and on occasion we do it well. ;) [23:27] F6F7: try a kernel from the version that worked [23:27] ok, how can i change the kernel? [23:28] well which is it, he wants to know why it crashed, or he wants the .odt files | sorry I replied to the wrong party. My husband needs his docunents. I (me personally) would like to know why the computer doesn't keep working for him. [23:28] chalcedony: how is he having trouble getting .odt files? [23:30] reisio, my memory is not edetic. However he clicked on LibreOffice and it started recovering docuoments.. however it shows that it is u nable to recover about half of them [23:30] reisio, don't forget to say 'over' after evey transmission. ;) [23:30] we didn't go further and he has not used the computer much [23:30] chalcedony: that should only matter for things he was editing at the time of the crash that he didn't save [23:31] reisio, uh huh. [23:31] is that what he's worried about, things he was editing at the time that weren't saved? [23:32] libreoffice has an auto-saver has to be turned on is all chalcedony, any way best luck. [23:32] reisio, he keeps ongoing records of events. he needs those. yes [23:32] chalcedony: so he had documents open that he hadn't saved? [23:32] wileee, where's that setting ill see it's on! [23:33] reisio, my husband doesn't speak and understand speech due to a stroke. he's not well atm. i can't ask him. [23:33] chalcedony, It is what it is so be careful to know it's function exactly. https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Saving_Documents_Automatically [23:34] wileee, thank you much! [23:34] no prob [23:35] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSystemCrash [23:35] reisio, thank you so much [23:40] Hello! [23:40] Hello, youtube is kind of choppy... specs are 2 GiB RAM and 600 MHz. Any ideas on how to make it run better ? [23:41] any know what distribution consume low resources pc? [23:41] uio: Are videos played through a dedicated player like Totem or VLC also choppy? [23:41] !xubuntu | nieve [23:41] nieve: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with !Xfce as the desktop environment.
