[00:00] because my computer needs some new os [00:00] this takes forever.... [00:01] learning curve it is [00:01] 55% [00:02] and if you did it would you be able to install 15.xx on 13.04 [00:02] and keep all the settings and files [00:03] create a separate partition for /home so you can next time simply do a clean install while keeping your files [00:03] how do i do that .-. [00:06] 100% [00:06] wish me lucks [00:06] :3 [00:15] Well.... It's saying gfxboot.c32: not a COM32R image [00:16] Help? [00:18] Hello? [00:26] Bashing-om: Once you're back, what kernel am I supposed to be updating to? 3.19? [00:27] kuju: Hey, just now back in tiome. Yeah .. should be the 19 seris - vivid ( 15.04) . [00:28] time* [00:30] Bashing-om: Alright. I was googling how to update the kernel while you were away. Wasn't sure if bumping to 3.19 was our goal or not [00:32] Bashing-om: I'm now running on 3.19.0-26-generic [00:33] kuju: did all the 'vivid' updates get run ? and all completed successfully ? .. Are we to the point to check the package management status before rebooting ? [00:33] Bashing-om: do you know anything about why my bootable usb makes my computer say not a COM32R image [00:33] Bashing-om: Yes, all vivid updates ran successfully (and I already rebooted since then) [00:33] viseion: I did notice your entirs. No I have no input on that . New one onb me . [00:34] kuju: Great .. and the GUI started ? [00:34] Bashing-om: Same old flashy screen with error GUI box in the corner before going back to login [00:35] Bashing-om: Can't click on that box, btw. I can just see between flashes that it's attempting to present an error dialog [00:37] kuju: All I can think of is to purge and re-install the graphics driver . Might serve us well to make sure ' dpkg -l xserver-xorg ' is all good now , before we re-install . [00:39] Bashing-om: dpkg -l xserver-xorg yields this. Not sure what use to make of it, though http://paste.ubuntu.com/12226675/ === NotANick_ is now known as NotANick [00:42] kuju: Yuk ! Not real sure what to make of that . the status is 'rc' -> (r)emvoved but (c)onfig files remain. I still think even with vivid's stack in place, this package is needed. Let me go ask ! [00:43] Bashing-om: Thanks [00:44] It seems that not one person is capable of helping me [00:45] Does anyone know how the compiz screenshot plugin's "Launch Application" works? It doesn't seem to do anything. [00:46] hey folks, what folders should be backed up when doing a backup? [00:48] Does anyone know what should be on an Ubuntu install disc === tyler is now known as Guest59749 [00:50] is Windows 10 good? [00:51] Hulio: depends [00:51] Its 8.1 without tiles IMHO [00:55] Hello [01:00] Bashing-om: Attempted another purge, install and reconfigure of xserver-xorg and the ' dpkg -l xserver-xorg ' yielded ii instead, so it looks like we're in business there. Another ubuntu-drivers autoinstall yielded a black login screen. I can enter my password and it goes to an entirely black screen instead of booting back [01:02] kuju: Not sure what to think .. I did find a possible bug . what returns ' dpkg -l "libgles2-mesa-* ' ? See what release that library is . [01:03] anyone happen to know how to set response headers for cups? Specifically Access-Control-Allow-Origin [01:03] Bashing-om: paste.ubuntu.com/12226827 ... Thanks again for your time today. I understand if you need to break away at some point. You've been really helpful [01:04] Bashing-om: Strange that there's two releases, both of which are marked ' rc ' [01:07] hello guys. Can anyone suggest a good guide to install the disk space of ubuntu in a dual boot ? [01:10] Anyone familiar with Kali, having dual boot issues [01:11] Would be good help [01:11] Kali has its own issues [01:11] !kali [01:11] Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [01:12] and not even based on ubuntu AFAIK, but Debian Jessie [01:13] kuju: I like solving puzzles - This beats jig saw puzzles -; Again I think we need those libraries. let's install them ! ' sudo apt-get install libgles2-mesa-lts-vivid libglapi-mesa-lts-vivid ' // Sorta flying here by the seat of my pants as I do not have vivid as my working install to verify/check. [01:14] Bashing-om: Interesting that openjdk would show up in this dependency resolution tree... paste.ubuntu.com/12226896 [01:15] kuju: I been wondering when a PPA would raise it's ugly head . Look'n at paste.ubuntu.com/12226896 . [01:17] hello guys. Can anyone suggest a good guide to install the disk space of ubuntu in a dual boot ? === miswism is now known as mistake [01:18] kuju: Can not see the relationship... But I am far from an expert. Lets check the installed pacakages status ' sudo apt-get -f install ; sudo dpkg -C ' . As the more we mess with this the deeper we get . [01:19] I want to contribute to the open source community. I know bug fixes are a good place to help, but how can I reproduce the problem so I can troubleshoot? [01:23] Bashing-om: No changes from those. I'm cool if purging JRE/JDK will remove a blockade. Those are expendable to me right now [01:27] kuju: Just that I can not figure out what is not going on that should be taking place . All we want is to start the GUI ! .. Do we have obsolete sources fetchs and/or conflicts ? show me ' cat /etc/apt/sources.list ; tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ' . [01:28] hey folks, what folders should be backed up when doing a backup? [01:30] Bashing-om: sources outputs here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12227080 [01:32] Finetundar: There is no one answer to that as every system is different. My case all I back up is my personal files . AND I keep a change log of all changes I make to the system . [01:32] kuju: Look'n [01:33] Bashing-om: So is just backing up /home good then+? [01:37] Finetundar: Consider, all system files are on the install . There is no need to backup any of them . ( I do not even back up home, any configs I am happy to redo ) . [01:38] kuju: I see no real problems with the sources.list file . You do not use sources.list.d directory for the 3rd party stuff ? [01:41] Bashing-om: Nope. As far as I know, I don't do anything too complex on this OS. It's just an app dev machine :S [01:45] kuju: Well .. let's start chasing jre down .. see what we can do .. what have we on the system ' apt-cache policy libqt5feedback5 openjdk-7-jre ' ? [01:46] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12227323 [01:46] kuju: Look'n at http://paste.ubuntu.com/12227323 . [01:47] lol i have heard of irc what is this? [01:53] kuju: Not sure what to make of openjdk-7-jre . The version you have is elevated a bunch from what is available on my system. what returns ' apt-cache show openjdk-7-jre ' . And we consider what we are going to do . [01:57] Bashing-om: ' apt-cache show openjdk-7-jre http://paste.ubuntu.com/12227473 [01:58] I'm thinking about cloning my ubuntu system to a larger ssd using dd. If I clone the drive, will I have to repartition to access the extra space on the target ssd, or will the extra space be made accessible via dd? === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [02:04] kuju: I stand in error and corrected, as per http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=openjdk-7-jre&searchon=names&suite=trusty-updates§ion=all; you are on the correct version . [02:06] kuju: OK; let see what results ' sudo apt-get purge openjdk-7-jre ; sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre ' . See what the package manager advises for the next step . [02:08] Bashing-om: Lost connection for a minute. Still here [02:11] kuju: Did you get me :04 and :06 entries ? [02:12] Bashing-om: no [02:13] kuju: ":04 I stand in error and corrected, as per http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=openjdk-7-jre&searchon=names&suite=trusty-updates§ion=all; you are on the [02:13] correct version . [02:14] kuju: :06 kuju: OK; let see what results ' sudo apt-get purge openjdk-7-jre ; sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre ' . See what the package manager advises for the next step . [02:19] Bashing-om: Re-install was successful. Lost context from reloading page. Was it libglapi-mesa-lts-vivid that was blocked by jdk? [02:20] kuju: Befor that we need to also do " libqt5multimedia5 ' purge and re-install . [02:20] Bashing-om: k [02:21] [onepolar] [02:21] Bashing-om: done [02:23] kuju: Not sure yet of the staus of jre, but let's try again ' sudo apt-get install libgles2-mesa-lts-vivid libglapi-mesa-lts-vivid ' [02:23] kuju: Not sure yet of the staus of jre, but let's try again ' sudo apt-get install libgles2-mesa-lts-vivid libglapi-mesa-lts-vivid ' . [02:24] Bashing-om: Strange... same dependency issues. http://paste.ubuntu.com/12227610 [02:25] kuju: Well ! ' sudo apt-get install --reinstall default-jre ' . Take that ! [02:27] Bashing-om: I was able to drop default-jre off the list, but not libqt5multimedia5 [02:29] Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12227658 is the output [02:30] sudo dpkg -r libqt5feedback5 [02:32] daftykins: package not installed [02:32] hmm guess it didn't get very far then [02:34] * onepolar already wokeup Godd morning everyone [02:35] onepolar: that's nice, but off topic :) [02:35] daftykins: kuju This is getting my goat. all we want is to start the GUI, have (RE-)installed Nvidia driver, xorg file is looks good and updated to vivid's HWE . Still with a login loop . permissions on /home are good . [02:35] hrmm, can you make it to the login screen? [02:35] daftykins: I believe it was you helping me via my friend's alias "wad" yesterday ;D [02:36] oh dear, well joke's on you 'cause you're now confronted by drunkykins [02:36] 8D [02:36] I could once. After updating to kernel 3.19 even that fails (visually), though audio feedback makes it sound like my keystrokes still work [02:36] i can't remember what yesterdays issue was [02:37] have you maybe got more than one screen attached? [02:37] Nope [02:39] kuju: with "pastebinit" installed, "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" from a TTY after booting [02:41] daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12227733 [02:42] kuju: laptop or desktop? [02:43] daftykins: laptop [02:43] ah the optimus setup [02:43] whatever you've done, you've blacklisted or removed the intel driver [02:43] daftykins: Asus GL551JM Gaming laptop - NVidia 860M GFX card [02:43] yeah you've totally trashed this. [02:44] i suspect if this thing has HDMI out, or VGA out, that'd display a picure [02:44] picture too [02:45] daftykins: I've been on HDMI out most of the night. Only recently unplugged. No success in either case. I had this happen once before on a 14.10 installation and it went wonky during some update. So I figured I should just reinstall the 14.04 LTS version instead. Same issue. Is this laptop doomed to not have Ubuntu installed? [02:46] well i don't know what you did between last night and tonight [02:46] kuju: daftykins The Intel failure is as of updating the HWE . As earlier Intel was recognized . kuju Have you disabled Intel in bios ? [02:46] i suspect following some kind of nuts guide has trashed it - and i don't really fancy picking up the pieces this far along [02:47] most optimus setups don't have much control over their state, so if you have any control over intel/nvidia/both you best mention [02:48] Bashing-om: Don't think I've disabled intel.. [02:48] daftykins: If I fresh-install Ubuntu again on this setup, what could I do to keep this from happening a third time? [02:48] Hi. Trying to import photos from an iphone iOS8 phone to shotwell. Getting errors...any ideas? [02:48] well, if you want to stick to LTS you want to keep a 3.13 kernel and ignore all the HWEs possible [02:49] depends what you do after a clean install. [02:49] callipygous: doubt an iPhone is gonna work at all. [02:49] why's that? I've gotten photos from an iphone on to linux before [02:49] hi, can't mount my 1 To Seagate USB (9SCAN3-500) on Ubuntu 15.04 / Linux 3.19.0-26. Syslog reports several things that look wrong for that device (sdc) : "appeared twice with different sysfs paths", "blk_update_request: critical target error", "JBD2: recovery failed", "EXT4-fs (sdc1): error loading journal". Any ideas ? [02:50] (it worked on Ubuntu 14.04) [02:50] d [02:50] with iOS 8? good luck with that [02:50] oh, so it's an iOS problem? [02:50] 8 problem [02:50] Apple always break things. [02:51] can't tell you for sure, don't buy their stuff - but it's likely [02:51] daftykins: My goal is to use this for development. No gaming or crazy visual specs. Ideally, Hardware-enabled android emulator support would be nice, but not required. [02:51] it s fuse keeping up with their changes [02:51] kuju: so install and use intel, no point making use of the nvidia at all? [02:52] Is it an issue with chrome that doesnt want to start in ubuntu? [02:52] daftykins: I never tried to use nvidia in the first place. I just installed ubuntu and accepted its usual update suggestions. One of them seems to consistently kill the system [02:52] kuju: don't use 3.19 then. [02:53] daftykins: So I should just reject the suggested OS updates? I don't care which kernel I'm on as long as it works. I didn't try to do anything with the OS or the kernel when this broke [02:54] no... just don't install from 14.04.3 media and keep the 3.19 kernel [02:54] kuju: If you (RE-)install 14.04.1 .. will not have HWE to deal with . [02:55] Bashing-om: But that's the exact solution I was attempting when I installed 14.04 this time. Do you mean, then, that I shouldn't update to 14.04.2+ ? [02:57] kuju: No ... If one installs 14.04.1 then one remains of the 13 series kernel - unless you opt in for HWE . later point release are HWE . [02:57] buenas noches [02:57] Bashing-om: I must have accidentally opted in for HWE. Or did I? How does that happen? (So I can avoid it) [02:58] ... Also, my Seagate 1K9AP9-500 (2 To, 2½") works correctly on 15.04. Both are ext4. [02:58] hola [02:59] kuju: If you had of installed 14.04.1 you would know if you had eneabled HWE . HWE is not a default option . ( I do not run HWE, and have no need/desire/intention of doing so ) . [03:00] f [03:01] Evenin' folks. [03:01] kuju: That is not to say I am not interested to finding the fault that the GUI does not start in this install . But in the time we have spent you could have re0installed twice over . the call is yours . [03:03] Is it easy/painless/possible to upgrade from a 32-bit install of Ubuntu, to a 64-bit install, without losing any data? [03:04] Bashing-om: Alright, sounds like I'll just re-install 14.04, watch for the HWE option and reject it, and hope the updates don't break it again :S [03:04] Geo . In one word. No . To get 64 bit you must install in 64 bit . [03:06] ok, thanks [03:11] in "2>&1" what does the 1 represent [03:11] kuju: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/14.04.2/ .. in the list here is 14.04.1 . [03:11] in my book the one is not in the definition but it is in the example :( [03:11] dm_comp: standard out and error out i think [03:11] dm_comp: it's answered in the course for free on edx.org ;) [03:13] ls /f > f 2> e [03:13] so if /f doesn't exist error will go to file e [03:14] Hi all. [03:14] but ls /f > f 2>&1 will also sent the error to file f [03:14] I am trying to down load all the full circle magazine issues for a friend and don't want to spend all day so is there a way to use wget to download all the issues using a wildcard? [03:14] i just don't get why do we need a 1, what does that change? [03:15] like "wget http://dl.fullcirclemagazine.org/issue*_en.pdf" [03:17] hi, can't mount my 1 To Seagate USB (9SCAN3-500) on Ubuntu 15.04 / Linux 3.19.0-26. Syslog reports several things that look wrong for that device (sdc) : "appeared twice with different sysfs paths", "blk_update_request: critical target error", "JBD2: recovery failed", "EXT4-fs (sdc1): error loading journal". Any ideas ? (it worked on Ubuntu 14.04). My other Seagate (1K9AP9-500) still works though. Both are formatted ext4. [03:22] matju: reboot does the same? [03:22] xpistos: Iterating a range + string interpolation in bash. [03:24] xpistos: After issue 94, I see they don't offer a direct link to the pdf. [03:24] But, for 1-94... do this [03:24] xpistos: `for i in $(seq 1 94); do wget http://dl.fullcirclemagazine.org/issue${i}_en.pdf; done` [03:25] xpistos: Copy-paste that into a terminal, minus the backticks, and you'll get all those issues. [03:25] daftykins: yes, tried already. [03:27] dm_comp: Those are the "three streams"... stdin, stdout, and stderr (0, 1, 2). [03:28] Also known as "I/O channels". And, those are their default descriptors, in that order. [03:28] agent_white: Totally nailed, Thank you my friend. [03:28] amazing what search engines can do. [03:29] xpistos: :) Cheers. I assumed you wanted the English versions. If you need the Dutch/Hungarian/Italian/Polish... etc. I assume you know how to modify that line to get those instead. [03:29] daftykins: I know, right? [03:29] agent_white, so 2>&1 the 1 is to redirect it back to stdout? [03:29] agent_white: No, you were right. [03:29] dm_comp: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO-3.html [03:30] can ubuntu be used on a newer chromoium netbook or w/e they are called [03:30] dm_comp: That would do stderr to stdout. [03:30] agent_white: the only thing I don't understand is the (seq 1 94), is that going to download issues 1 - 94 [03:30] en1gmaa: Yes. [03:30] xpistos: Yes :) [03:31] agent_white: Good, then I understand the entire command. [03:31] xpistos: "For each number in the range of 1 to 94... do..." [03:31] agent_white, so "2>&3" is same as "2>" [03:31] dm_comp: What is 3? [03:31] sorry 2* === hunter is now known as Guest99439 [03:31] so 2>&2 is same as 2> [03:31] Why would you " [03:31] agent_white could you tell me the version of ubuntu that i use that i can boot from a usb stick from (live) no install [03:32] dm_comp: Yes. It's redundant. AKA - Why do that? [03:32] on the chromium os laptop [03:32] dm_comp: It's the same as saying "redirect stderr to stderr" [03:33] its from my nephew school and want to see if we can run a live ubuntu on it or should i be looking at chromium os instead [03:33] en1gmaa: Don't worry about "what version". If you are attempting to boot it live, try it and see. [03:34] unfortunately I only memorize things i understand :( [03:34] i havent investigated it to much because he just brought it over and he spending the night but i just want to know how it is supposed to work with no limitations etc... [03:34] en1gmaa: Google "ubuntu on chromebook". Read the first 5 links. [03:35] en1gmaa: When you run an OS "live", you aren't interfering with the OS currently on the harddisk. It's run in memory. So, there's no harm, no foul. [03:35] i gonna research as i dont have time to waste with trial and error. like i said it not mine and i just wanted to do it right from the get go so figure i would aks here first [03:35] en1gmaa: Then, as I said, google the term I said above, and do some research :) [03:35] Research does not come without trial and error. [03:36] your prob miss the most important part [03:36] its not mine. we prob have about 5hrs left to mess around with it if that [03:36] en1gmaa: Re-read what I said above. [03:36] agent_white, reading How linux works 2ed didn't explain why it used 1, so i know i would forget it if i didn't know why is was there. thx!! :) [03:37] ill just check on a couple more irc channels and ask same question and i hope i get someone who "knows" what works [03:37] en1gmaa: Why do you ask when you don't want to know? [03:37] agent_white copy and paste from above to me instead of me reading what i might think your talking about [03:37] dm_comp: Glad to be of help :) Just remember: stdin (0), stdout(1), stderr(2). [03:37] agent_white, onces I'm done with the book i will look at the link you game me [03:38] it would of been helpful if the book mentioned it [03:38] game/gave [03:38] dm_comp: Yeah, it should have in the first place... odd that it didn't. [03:39] en1gmaa: Have you run any Linux distrobution live, before? From a CD/USB/Network/etc? [03:39] agent_white, yeah I know, but so far it's a really good book [03:40] dm_comp: Good :) Keep reading it. Google or ask here any questions it leaves unanswered. [03:40] good newbie read!

Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [04:18] fhrhch: you just told me you have 14.10 on ISO, which is EOL. [04:18] i would not. [04:23] Can i just upgrade kernel? [04:23] !kernel | fhrhch [04:23] fhrhch: The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) === Tsunami1 is now known as Guest56943 [04:24] fhrhch: no. [04:25] fhrhch: we will not repeat ourselves again, either clean install a supported release or upgrade to 14.04. [04:25] !13.10 [04:25] Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) was the 19th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on July 17th, 2014. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/saucy [04:25] fhrhch: also note you are over a YEAR too late in updating, this is very poor practice. [04:25] I only use it for development and internet [04:26] fhrhch, you're using a non-supported OS. You have ZERO updates and ZERO security. WHEN you get breached/broken, you will find little sympathy and zero assistance here. The ONLY fix is to upgrade to a supported OS, e.g. 14.04. As always, the choice is your's. Choose wisely. [04:26] No critical server use [04:26] stupid question i am wondering for the kernel headers files source package that i apt-get ... how do you tell gcc to search thru those directories as opposed to the default ones like /usr/local/include or /usr/include ,...etc for the header files if i uses the -I or -L so far i am still getting header compliation issues due mostly to the fact that alot of header files contain other header file declaration ...etc [04:26] both of which are incredibly unwise. [04:26] fhrhch: being online is the unsafe part, nothing to do with being a server. [04:26] I understand [04:27] you can upgrade to 14.04 though. [04:27] so is there way to set so gcc searches correctly for all the .h files [04:27] no ISO, just a command [04:28] not if i was doing it with the complete kernel source i would uses the make command but i am just gcc a simple test program that uses kernel header file functions so gcc -I or -L is pretty much all i have got [04:29] #osdev [04:29] i think you want /join [04:30] #osdev [04:30] amateurs. [04:32] Hi, I have a Seagate 1 To USB drive, I'm able to do e2fsck on it, and after that I can mount it, but it mounts read-only, and all of its folders are fine, and the drive contents are fine, but the drive can't do a blk_update_request anymore (according to syslog), which causes ext4 to think the journal is bad, etc. What could be the cause of this ? I thought it was a kernel version issue (i was running ubuntu 14.04 linux 3.13 on the previous comp [04:32] uter instead of 14.04 3.19), but the drive doesn't even work on the older one anymore. [04:33] How would I find out what the password of a Ubuntu system is? I need to have root, but the owner of the system is not available and I need to finish this tonight. [04:33] OneM_Industries: you don't [04:33] !root [04:33] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [04:33] there is no password. [04:34] note that your personal emergency does not consitute an emergency to us, so contact the person :) [04:35] Ok, sorry. [04:35] I am mildly annoyed with them actually, if I am to work on a system for them, I need the bloody password. [04:36] OneM_Industries, exactly. if they provide no password, you don't accept the contract. (Just my $0.02) [04:36] Meh, it is family tech support. [04:37] oh HE** no! I feel for you. [04:37] It is actually pretty reasonable. [04:39] you involving us isn't [04:39] :) [04:40] Sorry, was just wondering if there was a way to do that. Thank you! [04:46] hi all :) where is the canonical ubuntu location to set the locale variables like LC_ALL? /etc/profile ? === DaVinci is now known as Guest7148 [04:51] huh, you know, i just realized [04:51] only in X do i find locale errors [04:51] if i login in the tty, no problem [04:51] and looking more closely, i see in X, my locale environs look like LC_NUMERIC=en, but in tty it says en_US.utf8 === madmangunradio is now known as madmangunr [04:58] Just realized what make it big size is the android studio package [04:58] I think ill stick with 1310 until really required to upgrade or broken [04:59] 13.10 is already broken [05:00] I know - i cant run chrome because of buggy kernel [05:00] so upgrade to 14.04 like you were already told [05:00] And can run latest firefox with seg fault [05:00] Cant [05:00] why not [05:01] Because i dont want to redownload and reinstall everything [05:01] Bandwidth is expensive here [05:01] you won't have to, thats why its called an upgrade [05:01] Maybe i ll do it in hotspot sometime [05:01] more expensive than getting your unsecured OS hacked? [05:01] obtain a 14.04.3 flash drive [05:02] No problem, my 1504 has been downloded [05:02] Im behind my isp nat, and my router ip [05:02] that's non-LTS, that's a bad move [05:03] you'll only end up in this situation again in January when 15.04 is dead [05:03] And im the only one using the hotspot [05:03] ISP IP and router NAT :P [05:03] Just wonder, why ubuntu has to publish *.10 version [05:03] If it only deprecated [05:04] even the 15.04 you're just getting is non-LTS [05:04] only 14.04 and next years 16.04 are LTS [05:05] there are 2 versions every year, .04 and .10, released in April and October respectively. Every other year a LTS version is released, the even numbered years, such as 10.04, 12.04, and 14.04. 16.04 is the next one. They are supported for 5 years. Every other version is supported for 9 months. [05:08] Ben's right. .10's are test beds for developers for the next .04 [05:09] madmangunr: no. [05:09] ok, fill me in Ben [05:09] re-read what i said [05:09] i think the way you worded it was wrong there, you said *then* the even numbered years, yet those are the LTS. [05:10] I did [05:10] daftykins: re-read it [05:10] Oh btw, im still use ubuntu server 7.x in my college server [05:10] fhrhch: don't [05:10] Lol, still running until now [05:10] yeah i did, bad English if you claim that's correct [05:11] daftykins: you're adding a word in your head that does not exist [05:11] nope [05:11] how could i make a word up? :) [05:11] who knows, you did though [05:11] mmm nope bad wording [05:11] the even numbered years [05:11] I should have worded my 2 cents a little better but I stand by what I said [05:11] i don't know how that means not the even numbered years [05:14] Ben I was talking about .10 being a test bed for the next version. Please explain to me how I was wrong [05:14] it could be said that all non-LTS releases are testing ;) [05:15] in fact why stop there, every release is tested on us :) [05:15] madmangunr: because not all .04 are LTS, obviously [05:15] I have a feeling ben will say that to get out of apologizing for incorrectly slapping me upside the head earlier [05:16] madmangunr: i'll happily slap you too if you don't calm down :) [05:16] >:) I'm calm hehehe [05:17] I'm a little nervous about mr. Nebula next to me (other laptop) overheating while compiling some code for me [05:17] lm-sensors/fancontrol for overheating issues [05:17] Nebula shouldn't be running at 182 degrees! [05:18] need to re-grease heatsinks [05:18] fans running fine. >:/ just hot [05:19] that's not a real temp [05:19] ? [05:20] oh it's your silly foreignheit [05:20] 83 deg C eh [05:20] ahh lol [05:20] yes [05:20] 83 C yeah, that seems a bit warmish [05:21] getting a little jumpy with the temp. I need to take it apart and rethermal grease cpu and gpu heatsinks [05:21] Its a laptop [05:21] but not excessive. for comparison: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12228438/ [05:22] Fan's running full blast [05:22] probably blocked [05:22] I'll take a look cfhowlett [05:22] might not be the TIM at all [05:22] daftykins, timmay? [05:23] taken it apart and cleaned it and SHOULD have re-greased it then.. Its got good airflow [05:23] but bad grease [05:23] thermal interface material :) [05:23] or thermal paste. [05:23] paste [05:23] got it! [05:23] never grease, you're not lubricating anything [05:24] yeah try peeling the other crap off after its bonded over time [05:24] easy, scrape and then use your mother/sisters nail varnish remover [05:24] lol [05:24] i'm serious [05:25] Its good to talk to someone else that knows this stuff [05:25] hey [05:25] hey [05:25] goodbye [05:37] hello [05:37] anyone out there === DaVinci_ is now known as Guest46664 [05:37] hey [05:37] no one here [05:37] here [05:38] hey Guest46664 [05:38] hey can u tell i was running backbox just i switched to ubuntu 14.04 and my battery backup have fallen too much [05:39] can u tell y [05:46] hello fellas, [05:47] hey root3d [05:47] is there a location where ubuntu keep list of all packages installed, though i just fire up the command dpkg -l to list all the packages.

[07:02] As in, it would still be the Username>Home progression, but that would be on a different drive vs the OS. [07:06] yes [07:07] Is there a guide on how to do so? I am looking at putting my OS on a SSD and having all my other stuff on a HDD. [07:09] OneM_Industries: same exact way [07:10] Ok. [07:11] OneM_Industries: its pretty easy [07:11] just install everything on the ssd [07:11] then format the hdd with ext4 and mount it on every boot === WickedGame is now known as Singular [07:12] Ah, that last part is the issue. [07:12] How would I set it up to be automatic? === Singular is now known as WickedGame [07:12] OneM_Industries: all you need to do after installing ubuntu to the ssd is configure a mount point for where you want to put everything else [07:12] !fstab | OneM_Industries [07:12] OneM_Industries: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [07:13] Ah ha, that is exactly what I needed. [07:13] Thank you! [07:13] OneM_Industries: well this did the trick for me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Qwr3e7oPN0 [07:13] By the way, the tuxfiles link is broken. [07:14] it sure is [07:15] Ah ha, perfect! Tested it with another drive, and it works beautifully! Thank you! [07:17] Hi. I've installed cassandra and backup my database successfuly but there service is not working and I have no clue why. There is a 'cassandra' script in /etc/init.d/ but `service cassandra` returns 'cassandra: unrecognized service'. [07:17] the* [07:18] phibonacci: how did you install it? [07:18] apt-get install cassandra=2.0.8 [07:19] I had to remove cassandra 2.2.0 first [07:19] phibonacci: what version of ubuntu are you using? [07:19] 14.10 [07:20] phibonacci: i don't see it in the repos, is it a ppa? [07:20] I did not install the OS, I'll check [07:22] Right, http://debian.datastax.com/community [07:22] phibonacci: so you are using debia, not ubuntu? [07:22] No, I am not. [07:24] !find cassandra utopic [07:24] Package/file cassandra does not exist in utopic [07:24] I have no idea why my boss choose to use this repo but cassandra itself is working, only the service is not. There should be a way to make it work on ubuntu, I would not be surprised if the old install used the debian repo too. [07:24] chose* [07:25] phibonacci: we can't really help you with custom repos [07:25] I'll ask something else then: how do you update a script from init.d? [07:26] !upstart | phibonacci [07:26] phibonacci: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [07:26] `update-rc.d cassandra defaults` -> 'System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/cassandra already exist.' [07:26] init.d is still supposed to be compatible, right? [07:26] phibonacci: as of 15.04 upstart is transitioning to systemd by default === user is now known as Guest69912 [07:27] I know systemd supports the old init.d. === guampa_ is now known as guampa [07:28] phibonacci: one thing that slipped my mind is that 14.10 is no longer supported [07:29] 14.10 is not the LTS?

While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [07:49] sounds like an actual hardware issue. It obviously has nothing to do with what operating system you run [07:50] +1 what vonsyd0w just wrote [07:52] In Windows I've no problems with that. [07:53] I tried Ubuntu, Slackware, OpenSuse, Zenwalk, ArchLinux [07:53] everything works fine until I connect the ethernet cable [07:53] after a minutes my pc reboot automatically [07:53] I'm from GNU/Linux now. [07:54] Anytime I disconnect [07:55] Any idea ? [07:55] dresuer: test your memory for errors [07:55] look at your log files, that may point you in the right direction [07:57] vonsyd0w: With "look at your log files" do you mean dmesg ? [07:58] vonsyd0w: http://pastebin.com/Pv67pB9A [07:58] That's my dmesg output [08:00] watching dmesg as you plug the ethernet cable in would be a good idea. /var/log/syslog is the other file. Watch these files as you plug the cable up [08:03] Ive decide - maybe i can upgrade from the iso file [08:05] [14.04] I'm trying to find out what's happening to my python program at startup. Upstart stores some kind of stdout logs in /var/log/upstart/ and I can see that python's logger module is responsible for some exceptions. It cannot connect to a socket (probably the syslog socket) what's going wrong? [08:06] do I have to add "and started syslog" to my upstart conf file? [08:06] topi`_: can you pastebin the logs somewhere [08:07] let's see (first, I need to enable wifi on the box so that I can log on .) [08:07] it's a headless box [08:08] oh, and why isn't my /etc/rc.local being run? is it disabled by default in 14.04? [08:08] vonsyd0w: nothing [08:08] baizon: ok [08:11] odd, now the log is empty. And the post-start script has been run, since I made it to do a touch a certain file. [08:11] vonsyd0w: In Windows I've the same problem too , but only reboot one time [08:11] I ready, problem fix [08:11] topi`_: rc.local should still work [08:11] still sounds like a hardware issue. not sure I can help much more [08:12] is there a way to see *how* many times upstart tried to activate my job? [08:12] (I put there a condition that it exists via sys.exit(1) if it cannot be started yet) [08:13] sorry, no idea. I'm on vivid, which uses systemd [08:13] Seveas: I should upgrade, too :) [08:13] but I bet systemd works poorly with 3.4.x kernels... === demonlove is now known as server2client [08:14] topi`_: that's not unlikely vivid is on 3.19 [08:14] s/ vivid/, vivid/ [08:14] my ubuntu got slow don't know why? [08:14] Seveas: yeah, but this box is based on a Qualcomm processor and the vendor has only provided kernel sources for 3.4.x [08:14] how to fix it? [08:14] so I'm stuck indefinitely with 3.4 [08:15] server2client: identify what's slowing it down, then fix that. [08:15] how to identify? [08:16] iv have moved myself from window to linux because of same reason [08:16] server2client: top, iotop, free, sar ... [08:16] linux doesn't magically make your computer faster [08:16] Seveas means [08:16] explain? [08:17] server2client: those are tools you can use [08:18] m seeing by man command but iotop doesn't came? [08:19] how to use top commnad . i typed man top , it gives what it does but how do icheck what are the interfce running in my system [08:20] server2client: what do interfaces have to do with this? [08:20] no i mean program running [08:20] that's what top does, and it shows the busiest ones at the top [08:21] to see all of them, try pstree, or ps auxf [08:21] htop may be easier for 'em [08:21] and how to identify which one needed to be disable [08:22] vonsyd0w: http://pastebin.com/UmT3HRND [08:22] modinfo alx [08:23] htop didn;t work [08:23] server2client: iotop and htop are not installed by default. [08:24] ya i got it. [08:24] can i install it by respotary [08:25] directly by sudo apt-get install htop [08:25] sure, but none of these tools will tell you what to disable/do, you'll have to interpret their output yourself [08:27] also while typing free -s N it says second argument failed but it is given in man?

[10:13] loudOils, seems you want to chat. ok. #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-discuss [10:14] lol [10:14] Ben64: I compiled the kernel using my own .config now I want to install it, the output from the compile is linux cloud tools among others. I dont know how much the .config effected the linux cloud tools so I would like to install it instead of the one online. [10:14] cfhowlett: you're very helpful. do you know how i might be able to fix flash player in chromium? [10:14] poppe: so install the kernel, that doesn't require dpkg or apt [10:15] #ubuntu-discuss [10:15] Izura, sorry, no experience with chromium and I'm slowly killing flash as is the rest of the world. [10:15] how do I that w/o dpkg [10:15] tecsun08, /join #channelnamehere [10:15] poppe: if you don't know how to install a kernel you compiled, you might not want to [10:16] I know how to do it with dpkg. I thought that you had an other suggestion? [10:16] ahh ok, no problem. anyone else? i'm dreaded if i have to boot into my windows partition :/ [10:16] poppe: well dpkg isn't how to install a kernel you compiled yourself so....

"i thought linux didn't get viruses " [10:39] i think the problem is both of them keep running [10:40] Same here, I had the same problem for more than a few months and I've solved it by dissasembling the laptop and blowing out the heatsink + replacing the thermal paste [10:40] If you have Optimus or similar technologies, they cannot run at the same time. [10:42] rejd_: i have amd swichable graphics , and i am sure it always keep running even though i dont need it , [10:42] rejd_: in windows , the software manages both the graphics efficiently , but in ubuntu , its not working well [10:43] i get only 50 minute backup , whereas in windows its 2 hrs [10:43] in ubuntu you can only select one graphics card to run at one time. you need to log out and back in if you want to change it.

[11:10] Carbon_Monoxide, the package with the unversioned name is from the linux-meta package, there is no close binding between the versions of the actual kernel binary package and the meta package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta vs https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux for reference (see the vivid sections in the tables) [11:11] (well, there is some binding, but not for the minnor numbers) [11:11] *minor [11:11] .25 is the right meta for the .28 binary package [11:12] !info aptoncd [11:12] aptoncd (source: aptoncd): Installation disc creator for packages downloaded via APT.

There is nothing to upgrade actually. Because I install this VM guest several days ago. [11:17] ogra_: Thanks! But would you advise how should I update the linux-meta package? [11:18] Carbon_Monoxide: So reboot your vm and pastebin (no screenshot) the output of the guest additions installation. [11:18] just by apt-get dist-upgrade [11:18] as bekks said above already ... [11:18] my statement was more abotu showing oyu that nothing is outdated [11:19] the meta package never sees as many iiterations as the kernel itself so the moniro numbers (which refer to rebuilds of the ppackage) dont get updated on the same frequency, it is normal that the meta package has a lower version [11:20] s/moniro/minor/ [11:26] bekks: http://pastebin.com/amHicuB8 [11:26] Thanks! [11:27] Carbon_Monoxide: So pastebin the log mentioned. [11:31] My resolution is stuck at 480x680 again.

[11:35] i'm from Indonesia [11:35] Carbon_Monoxide: That vbox version is too old for your kernel. Uninstall all traces of it, and use the latest available version from the official virtualbox website instead. [11:36] bekks: I see. But the host is 14.04. :( [11:36] Anyway, my resolution is stuck at 480x680 after installing Lubuntu. [11:36] Or is it 680x480? [11:36] Carbon_Monoxide: Doesnt matter. [11:37] Spent me half a day trying to solve. And finally turned out to be version problem... :( [11:37] bekks: Do you mean downloading it from VirtualBox official site but not the package from Ubuntu repo? [11:38] Carbon_Monoxide: Thats what I said. [11:39] Canonical made a LTS distro but not updating its packages to make things keep working. :( [11:39] Thanks a lot bekks [11:39] Carbon_Monoxide: You would not have had this issue when using the latest official virtualbox package from the start. [11:41] Latest official virtual box package? From Ubuntu repo? I did install it from Ubuntu main repo. [11:42] Carbon_Monoxide: Do you read what I write? :) [11:47] My resolution is stuck at 640x480 after installing, and I can't change it from the settings. [11:47] you have the drivers installed?

[11:55] ubuntu433, run ubuntu-drivers list [11:56] ioria: "intel-microcode [newline]sl-modem-daemon" [11:58] ubuntu433, check additional driver (if you are lubuntu you can find it in system settings or preferences) [11:59] Carbon_Monoxide: BEcause the dont. Thats why I told you to use the official version from the official website. [11:59] ioria: Can I send a screenshot about the results? [12:00] ubuntu433, as you wish .. but it found something ? [12:01] Carbon_Monoxide, official would mean the package would be in main or restricted ... virtualbox is multiverse/universe [12:01] ioria: Something, yes... "Unknown: Unknown This device is not working". Two of them, in fact. [12:01] ogra_: Official in this case means: the packages officially released by Oracle. [12:01] the version in the archive works with the 14.04.0 kernel [12:02] ogra_: The pastebin clearly stated that the version doesnt work on his kernel. [12:02] yes, because he doesnt use 14.04.0 but .1 or .2 [12:02] ubuntu433, on Lubuntu that card should work .... it's a fresh install ? [12:02] if you install from a point release iso you get the newer hardware stack [12:03] ogra_: And thats why he should use the official latest version by Oracle. [12:03] ioria: Yes. Installed it about half an hour ago, maybe less. [12:03] bekks & ogra_: Thanks! [12:03] well, i guess pushing a newer virtualbox to -updates wouldnt do any harm either [12:04] but someone from MOTU (or a package maintainer of vbox) would have to do that ... and all the paperwork for the SRU [12:04] ubuntu433, look if you have a xorg.conf file ... sudo updatedb and locate xorg.conf [12:06] ioria: Is it normal if sudo updatedb gives no results?

[14:39] p5yc071c: If you're not using windows and not dual-booting, it doesn't help really. If you're dual booting linux and osx, google for refit, and just follow their little guide (it's simple). [14:39] kyle___: I'm also trying to use windows... [14:39] kyle___: ah ok, thanks! [14:39] p5yc071c: I'm sorry. OK, then you do need bootcamp, because the most important thing it gives you is up to date & supported drivers for apple's odd versions of everything. [14:40] kyle___: So bootcamp and refit, right? [14:40] refit might still help though. It gives you a much easier to use boot system for multi-booting macs. [14:40] * kyle__ nods [14:40] muchas gracias! [14:41] np. [14:42] is it possible to install ubuntu with minimal GUI? like I just need to check email and be able to browse some secure websites. [14:43] t2mkn: lubuntu is pretty minimal [14:43] how much space that needs max? [14:43] standard install is pretty minimal, 6-8 gb [14:43] !mini | t2mkn [14:43] t2mkn: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [14:44] t2mkn: 200mb maybe [14:45] looks nice [14:51] Hello, I have downloaded this experimental drive: https://github.com/tolga9009/elgato-gchd , and unpacked it into a folder, however when I try and install it I can't seem to get any further. Can anyone help? === ytixdecaf is now known as lelzNOT [14:53] dangoo87 i guess you better contact the maintainer Tolga Cakir [14:54] hello, is there a way to detect if a command has stalled on a batch script? I am trying to download files from different fileservers using a script but I want to detect if the connection has been lost and the script has stalled [14:54] MonkeyDust, I contacted the author and he said install "sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev" or if that fails "sudo apt-get install libusb-dev". but it doesn't seem to work either [14:55] kyle__: so one simple example of what I don't get between the ks=ks.cfg setup and the preseed/url=http://.../ubuntu.preseed file. If my ks.cfg is already setup to disable root and create a regular user, then why does the preseed need any of the "B.4.8. Account setup" again, like creating a new user ? [14:55] it is weird because it has worked for others [14:56] dangoo87, what command do you use to install ? [14:57] i changed to the directory where the files are which is "/media/storager/Documents/elgato /elgato-gchd-masters$" and then i tried ./configure but it came up with the message "Bash: ./configure: No such file or directory" [14:58] Why i cant see another desktop on ubuntu login manager, I cant change unity [14:58] dangoo87, why are you using ./configure ? [14:59] i was told do [14:59] make also comes up with a similar message [14:59] dangoo87, with those package you use 'make'.... but if you open Makefile you'll se there's no 'make install' target [15:00] Make = make: Nothing to be done for 'all' [15:02] test [15:02] make install = make: ** No rule to make target 'install'. Stop. [15:07] dangoo87, did you install build essentials and 'header files' too? not sure if they are needed for that unknown software. [15:08] hey [15:08] can anyone recommend me a good card game [15:08] Fjorgynn, Magic the gathering [15:08] ;) [15:09] Fjorgynn better ask in #ubuntu-ooftopic [15:09] I prefer some more klondike [15:09] Fjorgynn better ask in #ubuntu-offtopic [15:09] Another question then. How do I remove the shortcuts in xfce-terminal [15:09] OerHeks, the author suggested "libusb-dev" if that is what you mean? I am not sure otherwise [15:09] can't use irssi in xfce-terminal [15:10] beause alt+whatever opens some menu [15:10] dangoo87, ok clang-3.3 [15:10] dangoo87, with it it compiles [15:11] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12230984 [15:11] !info clang-3.3 [15:11] Package clang-3.3 does not exist in vivid [15:12] !info clang-3.3 trusty [15:12] clang-3.3 (source: llvm-toolchain-3.3): C, C++ and Objective-C compiler (LLVM based).

[15:34] you welcome The_Photographer :) [15:34] just getting so frustrating, every time i try modifying interfaces my network breaks [15:34] alistair, nice setup! vlc would be my first guess, but you'd have to configure the pipe in and video capture [15:34] sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop [15:35] The_Photographer, no [15:35] ? [15:35] THAT will grab the DE AND the entire xubuntu list of applications [15:35] sudo apt install xfce4 = DE only [15:35] cfhowlett: yes I need just DE [15:35] The_Photographer: It's not bad, but I found that one uses a LOT of RAM. [15:35] yes true [15:36] kyle__: I think so [15:36] cfhowlett: I thought if you did xfce4 it wouldn't include things like the software store, which some people like. [15:36] есть кто живой? [15:37] kyle__, xfce4 is the DE only. generally "desktop" = the list laundry list of apps that come with an ubuntu distro. so ... xubuntu-desktop is not xfce4 [15:37] !ru [15:37] Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke.

[16:52] rs3 "/etc/default/grub" and add it into GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX= [16:52] it is bad practice to have your server hostname be your root domain lightair [16:52] shouldnt the hostname be computer.lightair.com? [16:53] exactly compdoc [16:53] which is why now he is having trouble with the iRedMail installer [16:53] I recommend mail. or iredmail. or server. or whatever is most appropriate [16:53] Im trying to burn ISO to USB using terminal with command dd but when i try to boot pc from USB it doesnt boot it. ANYONE HELP? [16:53] I tend to give mine memorable names, phoenix, nexus, falcon, raven, things like that [16:53] Halelujah: what's the command you're using? [16:53] oh, didn't know that. Where should I change values from lightair.com > computer.lightair.com (besides /etc/hostname) ? [16:54] lightair: /etc/hosts [16:54] EriC^^: Im using "sudo dd if=isofile.iso of=/dev/sdb1" [16:54] redirect computer.lightair.com to 127.0.0.1 ? [16:54] its not redirect [16:54] Halelujah: you need to give dd the disk name, not the partition, like /dev/sdb [16:55] hmm [16:55] ah ok [16:55] not sdb1? [16:55] Halelujah: use sudo dd if=iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M && sync [16:55] TJ_on_Wily: thank you kindly! i'll give that a shot. [16:55] EriC^^: aaaah [16:55] EriC^^: foolish me [16:55] EriC^^: what is sync command and bs=4m for? [16:56] rs3 After you've edited the file do "sudo update-grub" so that setting is written into the GRUB config (which lives at "/boot/grub/grub.cfg") [16:56] Halelujah: bs=4M is the block size of the transfer and sync is so that everything is written for sure [16:56] TJ_on_Wily: gotcha. saw that warning in grub.cfg to not edit it. thanks! === Guest29373 is now known as www2 [16:57] EriC^^: so what bs=4M does? [16:58] Halelujah: transfers 4mb of blocks at a time, makes it faster [16:58] TJ_on_Wily: sorry, one last thing; i have both GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" and GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash". i should add iommu=soft to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX and leave _DEFAULT as-is? [16:59] rs3, correct... ..._DEFAULT is additional settings added to the 'default' (non-recovery) boot menu entries [16:59] in /etc/hosts there is line 127.0.1.1 lightair.com lightair.com What's 127.0.1.1 ? Why is that a default value? [16:59] EriC^^: is this command correct? "sudo mkfs.vfat -n "UBUNTUMATE" -I /dev/sdb" [17:00] Halelujah: you don't need to create a filesystem first, the iso has a hybrid filesystem [17:00] it does it automatically? [17:00] TJ_on_Wily, perfect. thanks so much! [17:01] lightair: 127.0.1.1 is still localhost [17:01] 127.x.x.x is localhost [17:01] EriC^^: sorry im linux beginner i dont understand a lot of things [17:01] what's the difference between 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.1.1 ? [17:01] lightair: if you need support hop into #iredmail on this network, this channel is getting a little hard to read [17:01] and there is none [17:01] Halelujah: the .iso has a hybrid filesystem, when you dd it to the disk it copies it too [17:01] they're just seperate addresses [17:02] you can use them seperately, often handy for binds [17:02] EriC^^: what is file system exactly? [17:02] I thought usb must be FAT 32 [17:02] i don't know i think it creates a small fat32, and another partition, i don't know exactly [17:03] EriC^^: aah ok [17:03] But i formatted anyway [17:04] it's so that the iso can be used on a cd and usb too [17:04] cool [17:04] Halelujah: no problem, when you dd to the disk it'll overwrite everything [17:04] Also format file system? [17:04] yes [17:04] ah ok cool [17:05] it'll copy the blocks, the ones at the start of the disk are the partition table and bootloader [17:06] EriC^^: it didnt partition my usb :) [17:06] it used whole disk [17:06] still has a partition table [17:06] EriC^^: sdb 8:16 1 1,9G 0 disk /media/gatis/UBUNTUMATE [17:06] ah [17:06] sdb 8:16 1 1,9G 0 disk /media/gatis/UBUNTUMATE [17:06] :) [17:07] I hope it will work now [17:07] EriC^^: thanks God bless ya and have a nice day! [17:07] Halelujah: no problem you too! [17:10] hi guys [17:10] can anyone help me install ubuntu [17:10] what's the problem? [17:10] the partition manager doesnt find any drives [17:11] but debian does fine [17:11] are you in the live usb right now?

[17:18] I want to disable my onboard intel card if an egpu is attached. [17:19] Pinkamena_D, just enable the new video card as default in your BIOS [17:19] Pinkamena_D: we've been over this before ;) [17:19] Pinkamena_D, Yes, add a script into "/etc/pm/sleep.d/" ... read the other scripts there to learn now to react correctly to the "hibernate" and "resume|thaw" commands [17:19] BluesKaj: heh BIOSs don't know about external GPUs :) [17:19] daftykins, external?? [17:20] hi, i'm trying to run a bin file (ngrok.io's ./ngrok), and i'm getting the following error: "bash: ./ngrok: cannot execute binary file" after running "./ngrok". i've set chmod a+x ngrok already to no avail. any thoughts on what i'm doing wrong? [17:20] BluesKaj: yep as question [17:20] must an old pc or or not more slots in it [17:21] err no more [17:21] boxbeatsy, do "file ./ngrok" - you'll probably find the executable isn't for your Ubuntu installation's architecture - probably a 64-bit ELF and you're on 32-bit, or visa-versa [17:21] i want to permanently disable my discrete amd 7670m graphics , so i went through the documentation , and read about acpi call , [17:21] now according to document i downloaded a acpi_call_GUI java tool [17:21] Hello. Is it possible / simple to put more than one distribution on a live USB stick to boot using UEFI? I've seen how easy it is just to extract a distro's .iso file onto a stick, and an efi machine can boot it. But can I get more than one to live in harmony on the stick? [17:21] BluesKaj: neither, the external plan is the way to add high power cards to laptops and such like [17:22] MoPac, Yes, with a customised boot manager menu. I believe there are tools to do it automatically [17:22] daftykins, I have wrote up a detailes post about xorg.conf config on ubuntuforums and bumper a few times, but no one is able to help, so I am giving up on that approach for the tie being. Please just silence me if you are tired of my questions.

[17:24] BluesKaj: yep external ones in a big box with the card usually :) i think alienware does one, to look up some pics [17:24] thank you [17:25] BluesKaj, I use an external dual-GPU attached to my laptop via ExpressCard, to be able to drive 6 monitors across 3 GPUs [17:25] jackhum, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fan_speed_control [17:25] EriC^^: I've checked the ubottu factoid database directly, but I tend to just find stuff that is relevant to legacy boots [17:26] 6 monitors, ..no virtual desktops needed there :-) [17:26] BluesKaj, there are certain types of small power adapters that can be used for certain cards under a certain wattage. This page has a small chart: http://www.ebay.com/itm/281662310808?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT [17:26] guy is it possible to run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade on shutdown? [17:26] cfhowlett: i dont think fan is the issue in my laptop , the main problem is my laptop keeps running both the graphics all the time [17:26] jackhum, yeah that'll do it. amd? [17:26] lspci | grep VGA returns two cards amd and intel [17:27] Pinkamena_D, my desktop system is merely a media server connected to a plasma tv...no games, just music and movies [17:27] jackhum, amd + intel = vital information for this problem. ask someone else, I only do nvidia [17:28] EriC^^: i did what you told but it somehow doesnt work [17:28] Halelujah: did you set the bios to boot the usb first? [17:28] cfhowlett: yes , i already know the problem is the discrete graphics , and i am thinking of switching it off completely using acpi calls [17:28] TJ_on_Wily, you were the one I spoke to last time I believe. Do you think you could let me know wha tis wrong with this xorg? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2291879 [17:28] EriC^^: yes [17:29] BluesKaj, I meant for the external card. [17:29] Pinkamena_D, of course , i also have an audio system connected as well...it's a barebones home theater [17:29] i check my usb drive in GParted and it shows uknown file system\ [17:29] Perhaps I missed the direction of the conversation. ;) [17:31] Pinkamena_D, what errors do you get when using that xorg.conf? [17:31] EriC^^: Gparted shows that my usb has unkown file system :/ [17:32] Pinkamena_D, no, i just wanted clarify that I'm not a gamer who needs a large PSU and a fancy hi=power gpu [17:32] Halelujah: type sudo parted -l [17:32] Pinkamena_D, errors will be reported in "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" [17:32] Hello guys, I've just installed LXDE with sudo apt-get install lxde [17:32] BluesKaj, ok, me too. I have just found the intel GPU on my laptop, which is good in other respects, to be a very low performance piece. I dont bother with games either. [17:32] and LXDE is coming with IBus IBus is an intelligent input bus for Linux/Unix. [17:33] EriC^^: Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 32,8kB 1159MB 1159MB primary boot, hidden [17:33] but I can't configure it to switch between my input methods with alt+shift [17:34] Halelujah: which iso is this? [17:34] EriC^^: ubuntu mate [17:34] type ls -l /sys/firmware/efi [17:34] does it exist? [17:34] exit [17:34] EriC^^: ls: cannot access /sys/firmware/efi: No such file or directory [17:35] Pinkamena_D, the intel i915 is fine for laptops. So why the need for "Performance Video", are you a video creator/editor etc? [17:35] ok, no uefi then [17:35] Halelujah: did you checksum the iso? [17:35] EriC^^: nop [17:35] type md5sum /path/to/iso [17:35] So for some reason this computer will stay connected to the network but just will drop access to the internet. I'm actually ssh'd into my desktop downstairs to be on IRC right now but I can't ping google to save my life [17:35] !hashes | Halelujah check here [17:35] Halelujah check here: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of all downloadable Ubuntu releases [17:36] Halelujah: compare the two [17:36] Cay can you ping 8.8.8.8 [17:36] Cay, Is it just DNS that goes, or do you lose the ability to ping external IP addresses too? [17:36] TJ_on_Wily, I can only find errors referring to: (EE) intel: Failed to load module "present" (module does not exist, 0) [17:37] (things with the "EE" marker) [17:37] does ubuntu have something similar to debootstrap [17:37] MonkeyDust: looks like the dns is down no response [17:37] TJ_on_Wily: let me try by ip [17:37] Hello guys, how to uninstall everything what was installed with sudo apt-get install lxde ? [17:37] TJ_on_Wily: no dice on ip ping [17:37] Pinkamena_D, can you pastebin the log please? [17:38] Cay, OK, now check if you've lost the default route: "ip route show" and look for a line with "default" in it [17:38] Siente sudo apt-get remove lxde; sudo apt-get autoremove [17:38] EriC^^: yes its correct [17:38] replace remove with purge [17:38] TJ_on_Wily: default via the router [17:38] (10.0.0.1) [17:39] Cay, Can you ping the router ? [17:39] yep [17:39] EriC^^: im sure unetbootin will work :) [17:39] Halelujah, did you umount before dd ? [17:39] MonkeyDust, for what is autoremove? [17:39] ioria: yes [17:40] Halelujah: give it a shot, usually though dd works when unetbootin doesn't [17:40] TJ_on_Wily, Ok, here are the past three: https://bpaste.net/show/4ed2864b3d6d [17:40] Halelujah, weird [17:40] Siente to remove what came with the lxde meta package [17:40] Halelujah: it's worth a shot though [17:40] ioria: i know... somehow after dd command usb filesystem changed to unknown :/ [17:41] MonkeyDust, so sudo apt-get purge lxde and then sudo apt-get autoremove? [17:41] Cay, I suspect the router may be blocking it for some reason. The other possibility is the PC has 2 interfaces (Wireless and Wired, maybe) and both are connected and conflicting [17:41] Siente yes [17:41] Halelujah, maybe a messed up usb [17:42] Hi guys! [17:42] ioria: but unetbootin works :) [17:42] TJ_on_Wily: The first scenario is kinda my guess. It seems like if something causes the router to lose it's shit it blocks till it's disconnected reconnected [17:42] but I wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy [17:42] Halelujah, cool [17:42] and it wasn't something like windows netsh reset would cure [17:43] TJ_on_Wily: thanks man [17:43] Pinkamena_D, do you have the package "libxcb-present0" installed? [17:43] hi [17:43] ioria: so why unetbootin works and dd not? :/ [17:43] hi [17:43] on 14.04.3 and my videos play too fast [17:43] youtube too [17:43] didnt have this issue on 14.04.2 [17:44] please help [17:44] can anyone tell me in this link https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=164345 , in answer #4 , what i have to do in part 3 ? [17:44] TJ_on_Wily, Yes, I do [17:44] What laptops are recommended for linux operating systems? [17:45] I have had the most success with dells and thinkpads [17:45] Halelujah, http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/ [17:45] Halelujah, googling ... [17:45] Pinkamena_D, it looks like that is what is being referred to [17:46] jackhum, create the named file, but the text in the code box in it [17:46] MonkeyDust, thank you very much btw any idea how to restore /etc/apache2/apache2.conf to the default one? [17:46] TJ_on_Wily, but that sounds like a non-critical error, which does not have to do with the egpu issue, does it not? [17:47] Siente no, i only know a few basics about apache [17:47] Whats better DELL or HP? [17:47] Also when I restart X I just get the "your preferences could not be loaded" or whatever error and I can only switch to another TTY and use that. NOt sure where that is documented on the xorg log. [17:47] Halelujah, http://askubuntu.com/questions/512059/using-dd-command-to-create-bootable-usb-stick [17:47] TJ_on_Wily: i dont have /etc/tmpfiles.d/ directory [17:47] Halelujah what you like most, is the best [17:48] Halelujah, that is completely opinion based, but to give mine: I have had a $3000 dell laptop have a video card death after just a few years, so I was not very happy about that. [17:48] Pinkamena_D: what video card was that? [17:49] jackhum, which Ubuntu release are you on? [17:49] I dont know offhand - the laptop was called "dell xps gen 2" or something. I can find it again if you would like :). [17:49] by way of contrast, my new $3k dell laptop acted up a few weeks after purchase. the tech came to my residence, replaced mobo and LCD in a about 30 minutes and I'm all good now. [17:49] TJ_on_Wily: 14.04 [17:50] I have bought <$1000 thinkpads form then on and I have not been dissappointed [17:50] (except for that built in video) ;) [17:50] mfw when ubuntu only recognizes keyboard in the 3.0 usb port ... [17:50] Pinkamena_D: Lenovo laptops? [17:50] HexTq: when when? ;) [17:51] well, the first was actual IBM, which was the most solid. Lenovo after that yes. [17:51] friend called me midinstall that no kb no mouse i told him switch ports out of the 16 only the 2x 3.0 did work [17:51] I used the T60 first... I am using the x220 now. [17:51] please anyone tell me how to do #4 https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=164345 in my ubuntu [17:51] Pinkamena_D, "Number of created screens does not match number of detected devices." seems to express the problem [17:52] its fairly hard to install ubuntu without keyboard and mouse -.- [17:52] TJ_on_Wily, with or without modifying xorg.conf, I get that error whenever I do a X--configure. [17:52] jackhum, OK... that instruction is specific to the systemd init system, which isn't in 14.04 (added in 15.04). [17:52] I have not been able to find a fix for that either. do you know a common cause? I don't even have to have the egpu attached to generate that problem. [17:52] just sharing the info if someone encounters the problem [17:55] Pinkamena_D, I see no detected monitors in the Xorg log, so there will be 0 outputs, and 0 screens [17:56] TJ_on_Wily: please tell me how to setup this on my 14.04 [17:56] Don't mind me. Just testing out my irc client I started writing this morning. [17:56] !test | pytestingclient [17:56] pytestingclient: Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3... ( by the way, remember that you can use /join #test ) [17:57] TJ_on_Wily: i am using this http://marcodallas.github.io/acpi_call_GUI/ , and its not working === MonkeyDust_ is now known as MonkeyDust [17:59] TJ_on_Wily, I guess this is beyond my understanding. Possibly these logs are not early enough to see my original screens? or should the log show the screens for every time X is started? I am using the laptop in question right now and obviously the screen is working, so I don't really understand where the error is coming from... [18:00] jackhum, acpi_call is a kernel module. First it needs to be loaded at boot-time by being listed in "/etc/modules". With that in place, you need the command that writes to /proc/acpi/call in "/etc/rc.local" [18:02] if i wanted to use wifi for my ubunut server ,is this possible? [18:02] Pinkamena_D, the Xorg log file should show the monitors as they are discovered along with their modelines.

[18:10] yes you can mlvmhn [18:10] I don't have any xorg.conf now, it is using whatever comes with ubuntu [18:10] Pinkamena_D, maybe it is because you've got 2 X servers running? I noticed that one of those logs shows "Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.1.log" " [18:11] is vlc, qbittorrent working in lubuntu? [18:11] mlvmhn, yes [18:11] is it the same GUI? [18:11] NO [18:11] Yes, I listed the three in order. I thought that the larger numbers were older logs, but you mean they are actually different x servers? [18:11] Pinkamena_D, the 2nd one shows "Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.2.log" " ... which makes me think you've got multipl X servers still running [18:11] my videos play tooo fast [18:11] !flavors | mlvmhn [18:11] mlvmhn: !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity.

[18:18] TJ_on_Wily: then i restarted my computer , and apparently , my discrete graphics isnt turned off [18:21] Pinkamena_D, No, there are NO configuration files unless you create one in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, or the device config/quirks fragments in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ [18:21] closed terminal and restarted, tried to delete user again, different process in use.. /usr/local/bin/znc --makeconf.

Maybe I need to wait longer.

[20:29] rabelais, "dpk-reconfigure " or "dpkg --configure " [20:29] rabelais guess you have to first find out which package asked it [20:30] Grrr, typo! "dpkg-reconfigure " [20:31] Are there seriously no known issues with the Ubuntu 15.04 installer? I've been trying to install it to my hard drive for a while, and it always freezes.

[21:23] did you update-grub after that? [21:23] miki, why do you want to disable those cores? They won't be available to the VM guests in that case [21:23] yes [21:23] miki you could a batch scheduler to run whatever you want to run with the specifications you would like :D [21:23] use* [21:25] miki, you really mean cpu, not just a core? [21:25] http://askubuntu.com/questions/46011/is-it-possible-to-disable-a-cpu-not-a-core [21:25] i do that for my experiment , is there another way to disable cpu core , yes i mean cores [21:26] http://slurm.schedmd.com/ [21:27] overclockers!!! [21:28] ok , i will change my question , how to disable cpu core in grub in ubuntu ? [21:30] i put maxcpus=2 after quiet splash in /etc/default/grub why not work? [21:31] can i use a .desktop to control which monitor an application starts in? if so what should i put in there? [21:31] Hello, i have a ubuntu server setup with PHP5.5 and IonCube Loader, but since the upgrade the website software does not work anymore and i got told to "downgrade" to PHP5.3. I rather like to run both version in parallel instead. I've searched the web i could not find something that shows how to do that with a compatible ionCube loader for 5.3. Can you recommend me a tutorial or even help me to install it so i can use the 5.3 version for the website? [21:33] . [21:35] miki, what does "cat /proc/cmdline" show? [21:35] ok just min [21:36] placeholder root=UUID=51aafbf0-8b62-481b-8e37-bc24a2bd4caa ro maxcpus=2 quiet splash maxcpus=2 [21:36] but still 4 core are running? === Yukkii is now known as Dhs92 [21:38] zLouD: look into update-alternatives, perhaps with multiple installed you can pick between - though if one was repo based and another not, no idea. [21:38] Thanks, i will look into this [21:38] daftykins: you mean $(update-alternatives) right? Just for clarity [21:39] ziggee: you have to compile one version yourself, using another prefix as the version from the repos. [21:39] then, you may be able to use update-alternatives. [21:40] miki, which kernel build version is it? "uname -r" [21:40] bekks: you mean me? [21:40] zLouD: Err, yes :) [21:41] Ah okay, i will try it [21:41] can i use a .desktop to control which monitor an application starts in? if so what should i put in there? [21:42] TJ_on_Wily, it is 3.16.0-39-generic problem is when install xen you loginto dom0 so i cant disable core throw echo '0' > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpux/online [21:42] Hey how can I put wireless driver in ubuntu mini.iso kernel, please? === Dhs92 is now known as Yukkii [21:45] Halelujah: not a very wise move, what's wrong with booting desktop or server media on your system? [21:46] daftykins i need wi-fi driver for in mini.iso :) [21:47] miki, Yeah... I'm reading the kernel source-code. As well as maxcpus= there is a related nr_cpus= but they are both compiled into the Ubuntu kernels so I'm not sure why the kernel isn't respecting the value. How are you determining how many CPUS the kernel is using? [21:48] how can i do that [21:48] which command [21:48] Halelujah: no you need to tell me what is wrong with the others, using mini.iso just because you want to is quite frankly ridiculous [21:48] miki, You've been telling us how many CPUs are active; how did you determine that to know that maxcpus= is being ignored? [21:49] i check them throw xl info command that show host machine resource [21:50] show nr_cpus=4 [21:51] miki, Well, there are 4. How about "dmesg | grep 'smpboot: Total' " [21:52] ok just min [21:52] miki, if that doesn't report anything try "dmesg | grep 'Brought up' " [21:53] both of them report nothing [21:53] miki, can you pastebin the entire dmesg ? [21:54] ok [21:56] moin [21:57] I'm using gnome 3 (classic) [21:57] after a crash, I've a problem with the gnome-panels [21:57] http://pastebin.com/Eb0ME1NX this is , TJ_on_Wily [21:58] most plugins are missing, and I can't access the adaption menu (with alt+right) - I get only a system menu (min/max/close etc.) [21:58] how can I fix that? [22:02] Hi everyone, I've got no sound on my Xubuntu 15.04 since last reboot, and I don't know why... xfce indicator applet has disappeared. I tried reinstalling pulseaudio and alsa-base but it didn't work. [22:02] Oh and in the task manager I can see pulseaudio AND the indicator running. I don't understand... [22:03] ubuntu and sound issues... :X good luck! [22:04] Ev0luti0n_, it can't be that hard, it has been working flawessly for a moment. [22:04] until yesterday, actually [22:05] miki, "x86: Booted up 1 node, 1 CPUs" [22:06] these are dom0 resource not host machine [22:07] because i installed xen on ubuntu we can only see dom0 resources [22:07] can always spot the Xen folk :) [22:08] miki, right, but doesn't that confirm that you've limited the available CPUs so Dom0 has only 1? [22:08] avilba: boot an older kernel. [22:08] i want to limit cpu cores for domUs [22:09] i cant do that without disable host cores [22:10] i dont know why kerenal dont respect maxcpus value? [22:10] miki, that's done via "/etc/xen/$GUEST config files, with e.g. "cpus="2-4" " [22:10] Hey guys! :D [22:10] Can I ask you a question ? [22:10] daftykins, Ok I'm doing it right now (the problem is on anoter computer) [22:10] !ask | arsalan_ [22:10] arsalan_: 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 [22:10] Actually I aso realised I [22:10] avilba: pressed enter too soon? [22:11] 've got a weird case of applet icons appearing and disappearing [22:11] i know that i want to disable cpu cores in host machine [22:11] ok, ~/.config/dconf/user was corrupt [22:12] daftykins, yep, sorry... So my bluetooth applet icoon disappeared and I didn't why. I didn't care cause I don't use BT. But now the sound icon is gone and the sound as well [22:12] focus on the main task first [22:13] Yes sure but maybe this could indicate a source for that problem... [22:14] Errr, noob question, how do I boot an older kernel ? [22:14] Tried holding shift but it booted just as usual [22:14] Has anyone had problems with dropbox after upgrading to 15.04? Mine hangs on status "Starting..." and after a few hours dies [22:15] mine seems fine [22:15] are there another way to disable cores in ubuntu? other that maxcpus? i put this parameter in /etc/default/grub , are there other grub file? === surgy_ is now known as surgy [22:17] anyone have a link to installing xfce on 15.04? [22:18] camrac: apt-cache search xfce === surgy is now known as poopinyourMOM [22:20] TJ_on_Wily, i will update the kernal and see === poopinyourMOM is now known as surgy [22:21] Hi guys! I would really appreciate it, if you could help me! I am working on a project that is similar to Shazam, I have a source code on a linux computer which gets a 10-second wav audio file and outputs the name of the song. So, everything works offline now. I was wondering how I can setup a server using ubuntu in order to support online recognition. [22:21] miki: the safe modification is on /etc/default/grub so yes [22:22] kardiro after quiet splash put maxcpus right [22:22] yes this is the best way to test [22:23] * kadiro only for test if worked put it to /etc/default/grub [22:25] arsalan_: time to learn web server administration i guess ;) [22:28] i need help getting applications to run on the proper monitor [22:29] daftykins: Do you know any sources? [22:29] ive been looking and asking all day and just cant seams to find an answer..... im running ubuntu 14.04 kernal 3.19 unity [22:31] arsalan_: learning to setup apache on ubuntu server probably has multiple million blog posts online [22:33] daftykins, For my sound problem, I just booted using an older kernel, but the problem stayed the same : no sound and no sound indicator applet. [22:34] test [22:35] avilba: did you try them all? [22:35] yes [22:35] miki, You need options that the Xen hypervisor accepts, set in grub's GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN [22:35] I've got only one anyway, because my computer is very recent [22:36] ok i will check , thank you [22:37] daftykins, even when booting in recovery mode, there's nothing. Sometimes the BT icon reappears, but I don't care about BT anyway [22:38] recovery mode doesn't give a desktop though... why would it have audio? :) [22:38] miki, If you look at the xen source the hypervisor debian/xen-hpyervisor-$(arch).postinst calls update-grub... which will call /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen... which adds an entry via the function linux_entry() which takes its 6th argument as the parameters passed to the Xen hypervisor via the grub.cfg "multiboot " statement, which adds the 6th argument. That argument is set by various calls to linux_entry() and the 6th arg is set from "GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN [22:38] GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT" [22:38] ok [22:39] daftykins, I mean I went through the recovery mode process and ended on the desktop. Anyway, still no sound ! [22:39] miki, as to whether that will do what you want ... who knows!! [22:40] ok i am checking [22:42] avilba: ah well beyond me then [22:43] daftykins, ok nevermind, thank you anyway === mridul is now known as OldGold [22:48] noob question, but if one wanted to see what a linux program was written in, where is the source code? For example, /bin/grep [22:49] TJ_on_Wily, also not work , am also update kernal to 3.16.0-46-generic also not work i am going crazy :( [22:50] so there is no way to disable cores on xen host or there something with the kerenal? [22:55] miki, The kernels are compiled to support maxcpus= [22:56] miki, I think you need to talk to the Xen devs; try their mailing-list [22:56] ok i will do , than you for your help TJ_on_Wily === Pokinawa_ is now known as Ezalor [23:01] i need help. im actually running ubuntu 14.04 kernal 3.19 with unity wm. i have two monitors. I have a program that keeps opening in the left monitor. i want it to open in the right monitor. i have tried compiz settings and other things. i think the problem is actually in X sense it does the same in all flavors of ubuntu. [23:09] in ubuntu 14.04 can i use a .desktop to determine which monitor the application will start on? if so then how? === SmOkE_RU_off is now known as SmOkE_RU === Shrooms` is now known as Shrooms [23:17] anyone have any idea how I can determine the lease time my ISP uses for dynamic IPs?
