ubuntu331 | but result is same :D :( | 00:25 |
lordofcinder | are you trying to install nvidia gpu drivers ubuntu331? | 00:25 |
ubuntu331 | i installed | 00:26 |
kadiro | I heard the same problem on nvidia 304 especially on 15.04 and i think if i remember it's not supported | 00:26 |
ubuntu331 | but no result (sorry for enter using) :D | 00:26 |
Bashing-om | ubuntu331: Confirmed that 340 is the correct version . What release are you running ? In later releases are better tools to install a proprietary driver . | 00:26 |
ubuntu331 | i am using linux lite 2.6 and tried on ubuntu,linux mint | 00:26 |
bazhang | what is linux lite ubuntu331 | 00:27 |
lordofcinder | i've done it on centos7, not sure how similar it would be on ubuntu/.deb ... | 00:27 |
lordofcinder | but it worked great | 00:27 |
ubuntu331 | linux lite os ubuntu based distro | 00:27 |
Bashing-om | ubuntu331: They are not official ubuntu . not supported here. All I know is ubuntu. I can offer no further guidance . | 00:27 |
bazhang | try their support channel then ubuntu331 | 00:28 |
ubuntu331 | ok i will use ubuntu but it will same | 00:28 |
ubuntu331 | i will be here tomorrow | 00:28 |
ubuntu331 | thnx anyway | 00:28 |
ubuntu331 | cya | 00:28 |
Bashing-om | ubuntu331: Takes 30 minutes - with a fast internet connection - to install ubuntu . Install ubuntu and we can troubleshoot, as then we can know what we are doing . | 00:29 |

Jordan_U | !defrag | userme | 00:33 |
ubottu | userme: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext4) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. | 00:33 |
bazhang | no need userme | 00:33 |
userme | ok thank u dont i have to on linux unlike windows 7 | 00:34 |
RandomNames | nope | 00:34 |

wydhry | Mirodroid - i dont mean channel ban, but server ban | 00:44 |
kadiro | I'm banned from offtopic too so the answer is no channel is safe wydhry | 00:44 |
Mirodroid | devslash, it is a TP-link bts that sales for about 9-14 us stinky dollars | 00:44 |
wydhry | Not channel ban | 00:44 |

Mirodroid | arm and X86_64 | 00:45 |
kadiro | yes true i have the same Tp-link it's not bad | 00:46 |
Mirodroid | nope | 00:46 |
Mirodroid | should be in the kernel | 00:46 |
devslash | Great. Im sick of this wireless adapter | 00:46 |
Mirodroid | also has a wonderful monitor mode | 00:46 |
* kadiro my secrete ^^ | 00:46 | |
devslash | This wifi adapter is a Bluetooth/wifi combo chip | 00:46 |
Mirodroid | devslash, look at wikidevi and find something atheros based | 00:46 |

devslash | Mirodroid does that mean you can do packet sniffing with it ? | 00:47 |
kadiro | oh thank you Bashing-om always you help me | 00:47 |
bazhang | lets take the hardware elsewhere please devslash | 00:47 |
Mirodroid | shhh | 00:47 |
Mirodroid | (yes) | 00:47 |
bazhang | Mirodroid, you too | 00:48 |
devslash | Bazhang my question is about wireless adapters for ubuntu | 00:49 |
Bashing-om | kadiro: 5 commands @ the grub > propmt to boot an .iso . | 00:49 |
bazhang | devslash, packet sniffing is not on topic here | 00:49 |

jmadero | did you google it ? | 01:18 |
Jordan_U | CAPITANOOO: Have you tried the minimal install CD? Note that it requires you to be connected to the internet, preferably via ethernet, during installation and is a little more complex (and much uglier) than the normal Ubuntu installer. | 01:18 |

TJ- | CAPITANOOO: The problem isn't with the media; there is a BUG in the PC BIOS | 01:28 |
CAPITANOOO | i tried upgrade the bios but get id error | 01:28 |
TJ- | CAPITANOOO: A BIOS upgrade isn't going to magically fix all bugs. On older hardware this used to be quite common. | 01:29 |
CAPITANOOO | i tried whit this | 01:29 |
CAPITANOOO | https://it.driverscollection.com/?H=Aspire%20M1641&By=ACER&SS=BIOS | 01:29 |
CAPITANOOO | TJ-: so there is no solution | 01:29 |
TJ- | CAPITANOOO: The problem is caused by the BIOS telling the boot-loader the wrong device ID for the device being booted from, so when the boot-loader tries to read additional files it cannot find anything because the device doesn't exist | 01:30 |
CAPITANOOO | and there is no whay for sai at bios to search in right device | 01:31 |
TJ- | CAPITANOOO: There is a possibility of a work-around for this; I wrote some code that is in syslinux/isolinux that allows you to tell the boot-loader to change the way it interprets what the BIOS tells it | 01:31 |
CAPITANOOO | the edit whit —uuid | 01:33 |
CAPITANOOO | i tried | 01:33 |
TJ- | CAPITANOOO: It isn't guaranteed to fix all issues, but what you need to do is press and HOLD DOWN the Ctrl key from the point the system Power On Self Test messages appear until after the boot-loader has started. | 01:33 |
CAPITANOOO | and what happen if press and HOLD DOWN the Ctrl key | 01:34 |
TJ- | CAPITANOOO: If the BIOS is telling the boot-loader the incorrect device number, the boot-loader will try to guess the correct device instead | 01:36 |
CAPITANOOO | whit the Ctrl key press and HOLD DOWN | 01:37 |

=== Tsunami1 is now known as Guest73900 | ||
CAPITANOOO | im desperate | 01:43 |
TJ- | Jordan_U: Hmmm, yes, but that is related and often caused by the same underlying issue. The BIOS lies about which device was booted from and that gets propagated | 01:43 |
jmadero | CAPITANOOO: are you making the live cd from the same computer as the one you're trying to install to? | 01:44 |
CAPITANOOO | no | 01:44 |
TJ- | I remember there's another workaround, but you have to do it in the busybox shell when it fails | 01:45 |
CAPITANOOO | but maibe i can tri this | 01:46 |
Jordan_U | TJ-: There is no device number information passed between the bootloader and the Ubuntu live initramfs, it just looks for the appropriate path on all devices. | 01:46 |
CAPITANOOO | i can install aperistent ubuntu in an hd | 01:46 |
ubuntu726 | ok guys | 01:46 |

nicomachus | hi, I've having issues installing vdrift due to unmet dependencies, but it lists them as uninstallable. http://paste.ubuntu.com/12250494/ | 02:42 |
nicomachus | s/uninstallable/not installable | 02:42 |
nicomachus | install -f does not resolve anything. | 02:43 |
TJ- | Sachiru: assuming you're moving /var/ to another file-system: prepare the partition and file-system, reboot in Recovery mode, go to root shell, "mount -o remount,rw /", "mkdir -p /mnt/var", "mount /dev/sdXY /mnt/var" "mv /var/* /mnt/var/", "umount /mnt/var", add an entry in "/etc/fstab" for /var that points to the UUID of the new file-system, reboot and test | 02:44 |
TJ- | !info vdrift | 02:45 |
ubottu | Package vdrift does not exist in vivid | 02:45 |
TJ- | nicomachus: That package doesn't exist in the archive | 02:45 |
Sachiru | TJ-, thanks for the info. | 02:45 |
Sachiru | Hmm. | 02:45 |
Sachiru | Looks like I have to adapt that since I'm planning to move /var/logs to a zfs dataset. | 02:46 |
OerHeks | TJ-, it is a getdeb package http://www.playdeb.net/app/VDrift | 02:46 |
nicomachus | TJ-: OerHeks has it right. I have the deb. | 02:46 |
OerHeks | so not so multi platform as they claim | 02:46 |
TJ- | Sachiru: Yes, I have separate LVs for /var/ /var/cache/ /var/logs/ and /var/cache/apt/archives and some other | 02:47 |
nicomachus | OerHeks: it's the most recommended racing sim for linux. :/ | 02:47 |
TJ- | nicomachus: check what "apt-get -f install" reports, that usually explains whats needed | 02:47 |
nicomachus | TJ-: no output. 0 upgraded, 0 installed, yada | 02:48 |
sad | hi | 02:50 |

sad | i cant install clam av in my xubuntu 14.04.3. please help ? | 02:51 |
OerHeks | nicomachus, after installing that deb package > sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install -y vdrift ( works fine here on vivid) | 02:51 |
Sachiru | TJ-, I assume by LV you mean LVM/BTRFS "logical volumes"? | 02:52 |
OerHeks | sad why not? what error do you get? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ClamAV | 02:52 |
TJ- | Sachiru: Yes | 02:52 |
Sachiru | Ah. | 02:52 |
Sachiru | Sadly ZFS has weird ways of mounting things, but yeah, I'll have to do more research on this. | 02:53 |
Sachiru | BTW, what happens if /var/logs and /var/cache cannot be found/mounted by the system on boot? | 02:53 |
sad | i did but after all i dont see it on panel | 02:53 |
Sachiru | I assume that it boots but logging and functions reliant on logging will fail? | 02:53 |
OerHeks | sad, read that wiki, clamav does not come with a gui standard. | 02:54 |
sad | wich wiki? | 02:54 |
sad | i see, thanks oerheks! | 02:56 |
nicomachus | OerHeks: I manually added the deb to sources.list and then installed, and it worked. odd. | 02:57 |
TJ- | Sachiru: the mount-points are there on the rootfs will receive new files; anything that is expected to be pre-existing may well cause issues | 02:57 |
fombunk | Hey friends, I just installed 15.04. On previous installs i had to remove the amazon scopes junk, do i still have to do that in 15.04? | 02:58 |
Sachiru | Thanks for the info, TJ- | 02:58 |
OerHeks | fombunk, see systemsettings > security/privacy | 03:00 |
OerHeks | easy to disable though | 03:00 |
fombunk | OerHeks: thanks, friend! | 03:01 |

ImpactIndustries | and your router allows ssh traffic through to the server? | 09:05 |

TJ- | erdal: What? I asked "is the video adapter in the PCIe x16 slot on the motherboard?" | 10:48 |
baizon | balance: ubuntu + xubuntu-desktop, you will have both default apps and pkgs. With only xubuntu you dont have ubuntu stuff (for example unity packages) | 10:48 |
erdal | PCIe x16 i dont know :D but it is on mainboard :D | 10:49 |
erdal | externaly not onboard | 10:49 |
TJ- | erdal: Well, it is very important to know. That motherboard has 3 PCIe slots; 2 are only x1. The video adapter should be in the x16 slot | 10:49 |

is_mw | baizon, yes it is | 10:52 |
SopaXT | TJ- | 10:52 |
TJ- | erdal: OK, make sure it is because if it is in one of the x1 short white slots, that would explain all your issues | 10:52 |
baizon | is_mw: are you sure? what does dmesg say? | 10:52 |
SopaXT | Bios is UTD | 10:53 |
is_mw | another strange thing: rfkill doesn't list it | 10:53 |

erdal | no it is on blue slot :D | 10:53 |
is_mw | baizon how to figure out? | 10:53 |
TJ- | is_mw: "01:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM43142" - I wonder if a kernel upgrade has not built the driver for that? | 10:53 |

is_mw | no its definitely not | 10:54 |

erdal | 16 | 10:55 |
erdal | 16 | 10:55 |
SopaXT | TJ- | 10:56 |
TJ- | is_mw: I suspect there is no driver. Try "lspci -nnk -s 01:00.0" | 10:57 |
is_mw | 01:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM43142 802.11b/g/n [14e4:4365] (rev 01) | 10:57 |
is_mw | Subsystem: Dell Wireless 1704 802.11n + BT 4.0 [1028:0016] | 10:57 |
TJ- | SopaXT: Right, so use the hardware switch on the PC to enable it and check what rfkill says | 10:57 |
is_mw | TJ- see above | 10:57 |
TJ- | is_mw: OK, so that explains - you should have a line "kernel driver in use: XXXXX" | 10:58 |
TJ- | is_mw: So you need to re-install the Broadcom driver | 10:58 |
TJ- | SopaXT: If the device 'disappears from the bus' that is almost always a hardware problem. | 10:59 |
is_mw | TJ-, ok will try that.. | 10:59 |
SopaXT | TJ-, that is the problem! On my TP E330 there is no switch! | 10:59 |
is_mw | TJ-, thank you | 10:59 |
SopaXT | The keyboard only toggles softblock | 10:59 |
TJ- | SopaXT: There will be a hot-key combination | 10:59 |
SopaXT | -> it toggles softblock | 10:59 |
TJ- | SopaXT: Right... and that is probably because of an ACPI bug in the PC firmware, becoming a common problem unfortunately | 11:00 |

=== venkat_331 is now known as venkat_330 | ||
TJ- | SopaXT: I thought as much :( I'm getting annoyed with the poor ACPI implementations we're seeing especially with cheaper devices; they're aimed only at Windows and disable many features if that is not the OS that is running | 11:02 |
SopaXT | The fun thing: the update also broke windows :D | 11:03 |
TJ- | SopaXT: One possible solution is to extract the firmware's ACPI DSDT table, disassemble it, and look at the _OSI strings it matches, and try to figure out which string ?????? enables the full features. You can then add "acpi_osi=?????" to the kernel command-line | 11:04 |

erdal | i dont understand you k1l | 11:11 |
erdal | i am turkish man and my english is not good :D | 11:12 |
TJ- | erdal: For the video playback, I can imagine a problem if the video is not encoded with H.264 or MPEG1/2, since I think it is only those that are supported by VDPAU on that chipset. But if the desktop is having problems too that suggests the compositor is the issue. Have you customised the Compiz settings/plugins? | 11:12 |
erdal | in ubuntu no | 11:12 |
TJ- | erdal: I'm not sure what else to suggest then; We've checked the adapter is in the PCIe x16 slot, nvidia-settings confirms its using 16 PCIe lanes, the nvidia driver is correctly loaded, 2D acceleration and VDPAU are confirmed, there are no log errors. | 11:14 |

erdal | i will be here in 2 min | 11:18 |
SopaXT | TJ-, yes | 11:19 |
TJ- | SopaXT: Good :) This is where you employ intelligence than. Look at the OSI method where those strings occur. You should see a series of If...Else If clauses matching those strings, and probably doing a Store() operation to the same location of a different value for each | 11:21 |
SopaXT | TJ-, it even has Linux, setting osi of which fixed the bug | 11:22 |
TJ- | SopaXT: Look at those stored values. The value is a set of feature bits, and usually the value increases as more features are enabled. Typically I see "Windows 2012" having the largest value. What you do is identify the string that sets the largest value, and then use that string with acpi_osi= on the kernel command line | 11:22 |
NetworkingPro | hey everyone, i have this huge issue... can you guys help? | 11:22 |
TJ- | SopaXT: Is the Linux Store() value significantly different to the largest value? | 11:22 |

NetworkingPro | breakfast: command not found | 11:23 |
NetworkingPro | how can I resolve this? | 11:23 |
NetworkingPro | :( | 11:23 |
TJ- | SopaXT: The "Linux" setting is the default used by the kernel so that should be used by default, so it doesn't make sense if setting that on the command-line with acpi_osi= actually fixes the bug :s | 11:23 |
SopaXT | TJ-, Windows 2012 sets the largest | 11:23 |
SopaXT | But it also sets OSW8 = one | 11:24 |

TJ- | SopaXT: If acpi_osi=linux works for you, great. I'd have hoped "Windows 2009" or "Windows 2012" would work and enable a few more advanced features. You'd have to scan/read the rest of the DSDT to determine what is enabled though. Often it is advanced power management features (better battery life) | 11:31 |
undertasker | thanks, didn't see that chan | 11:31 |
k1l_ | undertasker: no problem | 11:31 |
SopaXT | TJ- the linux one works | 11:31 |
NetworkingPro | k1l_: it mentions breakfast? :| | 11:31 |
TJ- | SopaXT: OK, well if you don't notice any other regressions go with it, but as I said earlier the kernel already passes "linux" as the OSI so I can't see how setting it manually is changing anything | 11:32 |
TJ- | SopaXT: "dmesg | grep _OSI" will usually show what setting the kernel used | 11:33 |
pragomer | hi. I want to use duckduckgo als startpage in Firefox.. but keep the Firefox setting "keep cookies until I close Firefox"... but language and settings of duckduckgo are stored in cookies.. how could I do that? | 11:33 |
k1l_ | pragomer: change the starter to load the webpage? or talk to the firefox guys if they know a better method | 11:34 |
NetworkingPro | pragomer: set permissions on your duck duck go cookies to allow them to be read by firefox, but not deleted by firefox? | 11:35 |
NetworkingPro | When firefox closes it would nuke all cookies except those. | 11:36 |
SopaXT | TJ-, without any osi set, glitches start | 11:38 |

_dreamer | I have a hard time understanding the guides. How do I go about this? Do I only need to create a swap partition and then another partition with the size of my choice and the rest will be automatic, or do I need to defina how large root, home and so on partitions should be??= | 12:00 |
k1l_ | _dreamer: you can make the partitions before and just assign them in the installer to the needed ubuntu partitions | 12:00 |
k1l_ | !partitions | _dreamer | 12:00 |
ubottu | _dreamer: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 12:00 |

Voyage | Is there a GUI tool to do torture test and measure cpu/memory performance ? | 12:02 |

_dreamer | auronandace: and then what? will the install make swap space and everything else needed on its own? | 12:02 |
EriC^^ | _dreamer: you can shrink the partition in windows, leaving unallocated space, and in the installer choose to install alongside windows, it'll create the root partition and swap partition by itself using that free space | 12:03 |
EriC^^ | _dreamer: or you can use the installer's Something else option to create the root partition and set the mountpoint as "/" and the swap partition as well and install | 12:03 |
_dreamer | EriC^^: ok ill try that, it sounds like the least hassle | 12:04 |
EriC^^ | _dreamer: use windows to shrink the partition though as it's better, and also boot into windows a couple times so it picks up on the changes before installing ubuntu too | 12:04 |

jasperr | is there a way to create UEFI linux on my old, legacy PC ? | 12:23 |
ikonia | jasperr: no | 12:24 |
jasperr | I dont want to mess with the corporate windows... | 12:24 |
pdc2 | TJ-, ok | 12:24 |
jasperr | ikonia: so I need a secure boot enabled machine to re-install linux for UEFI? | 12:24 |
ikonia | uefi is nothing to do with secure boot | 12:25 |
pdc2 | TJ-, it is not an ext4 partition though, it is NTFS | 12:25 |
EriC^^ | jasperr: what are you trying to do? | 12:25 |
jasperr | well, in laptop BIOS they seem to be connected | 12:25 |
jasperr | to boot from USB drive | 12:25 |
jasperr | on my corporate laptop, without disabling secure boot there | 12:25 |
jasperr | I have instructions for installing linux on this machine, with things I dont want to execute | 12:26 |
TJ- | pdc2: You'd be better off simply creating an additional file-system and moving say /var/ out of the root file-system - that will usually free up a lot of space. I have a separate file-system for /usr/local/ which is where locally-built packages should generally install to, so you could install it into the root dir of that file-system using a chroot, and it will map into /usr/local/ directories correctly | 12:26 |
jasperr | I would like to install UEFI linux on my old legacy desktop PC on the USB drive so I was able to boot it on my laptop | 12:26 |
TJ- | pdc2: NTFS is no good; the *nix permissions won't map. | 12:27 |
TJ- | jasperr: There is no such thing as "UEFI Linux" - UEFI is a system firmware alternative to BIOS | 12:27 |
jasperr | I mean a linux installation that is UEFI compatible | 12:27 |
TJ- | jasperr: Ubuntu can install in UEFI mode, or in Legacy BIOS mode, on a UEFI PC | 12:27 |
pdc2 | TJ-, thanks | 12:28 |
jasperr | and can installation than be moved to another UEFI PC at least? (USB drive still) | 12:28 |
TJ- | jasperr: Yes | 12:28 |
jasperr | so I will check my desktop PC, if it was UEFI... and then | 12:28 |
jasperr | if not, I will need to find a friend with a new enough computer... | 12:29 |
TJ- | jasperr: There is one issue however; if you want the image to be portable AND bootable on different UEFI PCs, you'll need to copy /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi to /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI - that is the UEFI 'simple media' default boot-loader path | 12:29 |
EriC^^ | jasperr: you need to let it have it's own efi partition on the usb so it can boot from it on any pc | 12:30 |
jasperr | TJ-: thanks for the hint -- I would like to do exactly that | 12:30 |
TJ- | jasperr: A permanent UEFI install adds an entry for the installed OS into the system firmware's boot menu on the motherboard. For removable media the firmware looks for the boot-loader in the EFI System Partition at /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI on a 64-bit system | 12:30 |
jasperr | I dont want to hack with firmware boot menu on the target computer... | 12:31 |
jasperr | if necessary I can play around with another computer more... | 12:31 |
TJ- | jasperr: techically, that path is actually built from "/EFI/BOOT/BOOT${ARCHITECTURE}.EFI" but ARCHITECTURE usually is "x64" | 12:32 |
EriC^^ | jasperr: sometimes the pc has a boot menu you can access by pressing esc then boot options and you can select which efi file to boot | 12:32 |
EriC^^ | jasperr: which laptop do you have? | 12:32 |
jasperr | Lenovo X1 Carbon | 12:32 |
TJ- | jasperr: This is how DVD images are bootable on UEFI, using the Simple Media path | 12:32 |
EriC^^ | jasperr: try pressing esc as soon as you turn the pc on and see if you can get a boot menu | 12:33 |
jasperr | I can get a boot menu... | 12:33 |
jasperr | however I have no BIOS password as the computer is a corporate one | 12:33 |
jasperr | so I cannot access some parts of the BIOS options (on the target computer) | 12:34 |
EriC^^ | jasperr: the boot menu says something like os manager and windows is there? and maybe boot from efi file at the bottom? | 12:34 |
jasperr | I guess I am not allowed to enter the boot manager. Windows is there for sure | 12:34 |
TJ- | jasperr: If secure boot is enabled, you'll need to use the grub-efi-amd64-signed package, not the standard grub-efi-amd64 | 12:34 |
EriC^^ | ^ and need to copy shimx64.efi instead of grubx64.efi | 12:35 |
jasperr | amd64? | 12:35 |
TJ- | jasperr: The manual boot menu will usually allow you to choose a removable device to boot from, if one is found and has an EFI System Partition on it | 12:35 |
jasperr | I have Intel processors on the target computer | 12:36 |
jasperr | TJ-: I will try, thanks | 12:36 |
TJ- | jasperr: Yes - 'amd64' are the 64-bit builds. AMD introduced 64-bit extensions to the x86 architecture | 12:36 |
jasperr | TJ- is amd64 working for intel processors as well? | 12:36 |
jasperr | or do I need this package if my source PC is amd64? | 12:37 |
TJ- | jasperr: Originally Intel didn't want to do that an created the new incompatible IA64 Itanium 64-bit instruction set, but AMD's extensions won the market, so Intel had to follow their lead | 12:37 |
TJ- | jasperr: So Intel 64 bit processors are amd64 compatible | 12:37 |

Powersource | derek01, just guessing here, but what provides the login screen? did you see it after purging gnome? | 14:55 |

Bernzel | Thanks I got photoshop working! But Im still experiencing massive graphics leaks. Or it seems atleast. Streaming films, playing games and generally doing anything heavy on graphics causes lag. When I run with win7 I maxed out BF4 so my hardware is decent.

YokoBR | hi guys | 15:08 |
Powersource | hi dude | 15:09 |
YokoBR | please, i have a sftp server that is returning "Permission denied (publickey)" | 15:09 |
YokoBR | it's on amazon ec2 | 15:09 |
rory | YokoBR: You need to put your public key in the file /home/username/.ssh/authorized_keys on the remote server | 15:09 |
rory | YokoBR: where "username" is the actual username | 15:10 |
rory | YokoBR: your public key is in /home/username/.ssh/id_rsa.pub or if it's not, you can generate one with ssh-keygen | 15:10 |
somsip | YokoBR: on AWS you need to use the keypair that you specified when you created the instance. | 15:11 |
rory | YokoBR: On AWS they give you a private key to use for logging in. You can SSH onto the server initially with: ssh -i /path/to/your/ssh_key.pem username@ec2-x-x-x-x.amazonaws.com | 15:11 |
cristian_c | hello | 15:11 |
rory | YokoBR: and then once you're on there, put whatever public keys into whatever authorized_keys files | 15:12 |
YokoBR | rory: i can login with ssh | 15:12 |
cristian_c | I've to put bluetooth initialization command in runlevel | 15:12 |
YokoBR | but i can't with sftp | 15:12 |
YokoBR | there are two different keys for those | 15:12 |
rory | YokoBR: Are you sure your SFTP client is using the correct SSH private key? | 15:12 |
YokoBR | two different users | 15:12 |
YokoBR | yep | 15:12 |
cristian_c | exactly, what steps have I to do to create an init script? | 15:12 |
rory | YokoBR: If there are separate keys, separate users, you need to put the public half of the key you're using for SFTP into /home/username/.ssh/authorized_keys on the remote server | 15:13 |
cristian_c | Any ideas? | 15:13 |

captainunicorn | i need openssl on ubuntu anyone can help me plz?? | 15:26 |
TJ- | SopaXT-[WEB]: I meant, earlier when we looking at the DSDT, you said that acpi_osi=Linux fixed the issue. If 'Linux' isn't working have you tried 'Windows 2012' or 'Windows 2009' ? | 15:26 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | 'Windows 2012' neither | 15:26 |
auronandace | captainunicorn: sudo apt-get install openssl | 15:26 |
cfhowlett | captainunicorn, open a terminal: apt-cache policy openssl | 15:27 |
TJ- | SopaXT-[WEB]: probably it also requires functionality that is in the Windows-only platform driver | 15:27 |
TJ- | SopaXT-[WEB]: if the firmware update broke it, contact the manufacturer's support | 15:28 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | TJ-: Can you suggest me anything, please? | 15:28 |
captainunicorn | thanks chow but it hasnt opened yet | 15:28 |
cfhowlett | SopaXT-[WEB], windows faile? ubuntu failed? hardware issue not an ubuntu issue. consider replacement | 15:28 |
captainunicorn | how can i open it | 15:28 |
cfhowlett | captainunicorn, man openssl for instructions | 15:29 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | Windows has broken the driver | 15:29 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | Updating gave 'Incorrect platform' | 15:30 |
cfhowlett | SopaXT-[WEB], updating WHAT? | 15:30 |
YokoBR | guys, i'm getting permission denied on sftp after chmod 777 /home/user/ | 15:30 |
derek01 | so on trying to switch to KDE from GNOME, booting up, I am halted up. Its stuck at "A start job is running for Wait for...n to Quit" going for 30+ min with no limi | 15:30 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | cfhowlett: in this case, updating the Windows driver | 15:30 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | Sorry, English isn't my native | 15:30 |
cfhowlett | SopaXT-[WEB], updating windows will not effect ubuntu | 15:31 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | cfhowlett: You seem to to get it right. Look: I was using Win8.1. After plugging an USB device and rebooting, it said that the driver was not working properly. When I tried to update the driver on win, it failed. So I returned to Linux hoping no bugs will occur. I was wrong. | 15:33 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | *not to get it righgt | 15:33 |
YokoBR | now i'm getting echo 60 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time | 15:33 |
YokoBR | ops | 15:33 |
YokoBR | now im getting Write failed: Broken pipe Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by peer | 15:33 |
cfhowlett | SopaXT-[WEB], if both windows and linux OS are failing, that suggests a hardware issue | 15:34 |
TJ- | SopaXT-[WEB]: When you did the firmware upgrade, did you reload the factory defaults? sometimes there internal changes between firmware revisions that require that. Firmware changelog/install instructions usually suggest that | 15:36 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | TJ-: yep, I have resetted the bios to defaults | 15:36 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | didn't try CMOS yet | 15:36 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | I mean, the battery | 15:36 |
TJ- | SopaXT-[WEB]: best to contact manufacturer support then, the issue isn't Ubuntu or Windows from what you have described | 15:37 |
SopaXT-[WEB] | TJ-: now doing this | 15:37 |

topi`_ | help needed with upstart: I built the SIGSTOP mechanism to my custom daemon, and then used "expect stop" keyword in the upstart conf file. However, my daemon is only run once, despite the "restart" keyword. Why? | 16:33 |
topi`_ | it is run multiple times if I omit "expect stop" | 16:33 |
TJ- | derek01: That message just happens to the be last one written to the console (it's the systemd version number)... try switching to other VTs with Alt+F1 through Alt+F7 to see other messages. Also, pressing Esc on the current VT *may* help get more info | 16:34 |
derek01 | TJ-: Yea I can switch to other VTs, but nothing shows on any, and pressing esc leads nowhere unfortunatley. I dropped myself to a root shell to investigate further. | 16:35 |

TJ- | derek01: OK... if the system is alive you should have logs. | 16:38 |
derek01 | TJ-: looking into the boot logs, It says its waiting for Screen to quit. At boot?? Not sure why there is a screen running | 16:39 |
derek01 | TJ-: But I think I know the culprit, its a minecraft server control service that starts at boot, and I think it uses a screen session. | 16:39 |
daftykins | dlam: and you have a cable connected? | 16:40 |
dlam | yes and i know it works | 16:40 |
dlam | dammeet | 16:40 |

android6011 | any ideas on a command I can use? | 17:00 |
rinoros | daftykins : still trying here | 17:02 |
cristian_c | android6011: I don't know your situation, but I could suggest echo "string" >> fulename | 17:03 |
android6011 | cristian_c: that puts it at the end. The last line of the file is "COMMIT" so I need anything I "append" to be before that line | 17:03 |
cristian_c | android6011: maybe, you could experiment with regex either awk | 17:04 |

|aaron | does anyone here use xming? im having a really weird problem. anytime i switch out of the xming window, when i return the blinking cursor is missing and i cant type anything. but i CAN move the "missing" cursor around with the arrows keys (i can see the active line in my text editor change) or even shift+select text. but any letters, etc. i try to type just do nothing. but then if i just open the "File" menu with the mouse, as soon as i close it the cursor | 17:07 |
|aaron | is back and everything ins normal. this happens every single time i switch out of the xming window. anyone have any idea?? im on a ubuntu host, windows 8 client | 17:07 |

protn | iconia http://pastebin.com/0XYgfarT | 17:17 |
ikonia | protn: so there is no "some reason" it's clear why - it can't find the dependencies it wants / conflicts the dependencies | 17:18 |
protn | ikonia: so where do I get those deps? | 17:19 |
balance | I want to install kubuntu on my thinkpad yoga. If I boot from usb stick, dual screen + ethernet works. If I boot from SSD ethernet and dual screen doesn't work. What I noticed is that I get some ethernet loading thing which I don't know what it actually does: http://pastie.org/10392296 - dual screen works on the login screen, also ethernet works after installation (breaks if I restart), any hints? | 17:19 |

protn | compile from source? | 17:19 |
ikonia | protn: look at where you are getting the packages - then look at if the dependencies are in that same repo, if not why not, if they are there, try to install them and see if you get a clearer error | 17:19 |
ikonia | no - never compile from source, a package is not aware of source installs | 17:19 |
protn | they are not there | 17:20 |
ikonia | protn: how do you know ? | 17:20 |

jhutchins | ikonia: If you actually take the extra step of building a package, the package manger is aware of the install. It's easy if the packages are Ubuntu packages, they'll have a .deb target. Third party software takes some extra work, | 17:25 |
ikonia | jhutchins: what ? | 17:26 |
jhutchins | ikonia: Working with source is appropriate, it's not a "never build from source" thing, it's a "know what you're doing" thing. | 17:26 |
ikonia | jhutchins: the guy can't handle the package manager - I think he should "never build from source" | 17:27 |
jhutchins | ikonia: I think he should learn how to do what he's trying to do. | 17:27 |
ikonia | install a package..... | 17:27 |
ikonia | which already exists in the repo | 17:28 |
jhutchins | ikonia: You weren't born knowing apt. | 17:28 |
ikonia | no, but I learnt how to use it before trying to build debs | 17:28 |

Toya | Computer extremely slow with anything to do with graphics, like switching browser tabs or scrolling fast | 17:32 |
daftykins | Toya: graphics hardware + driver? | 17:33 |
jhutchins | derek01: So you're not getting a greeter/login/display manger, right? Did you install kdm? | 17:33 |
jhutchins | !install kde | 17:33 |
Toya | Not sure what's the problem, it used to be fine weeks ago. | 17:34 |
jhutchins | Toya: So what changed? | 17:34 |
derek01 | jhutchins: actually its not even starting the boot process, but I think I just fixed that. I had my RAID array unplugged, and it was halting looking for it. Now it booted, but im at a black screen, Im gonna give it a few min, then drop back to the root shell, and see what the boot log says. Now I think its a DM issue | 17:35 |
derek01 | wont even let me switch VTs | 17:35 |
Toya | I don't know, I just noticed that anything with graphics such as switching windows is slow and sometimes freezes my computer | 17:36 |
Toya | It used be really normal | 17:36 |
jhutchins | derek01: Do you get the grub boot menu? (you may need to hold shift while booting) | 17:37 |

BluesKaj | derek01, did you try installing the graphics driver for your card | 17:37 |
jhutchins | Toya: Is it swapping? | 17:37 |
derek01 | jhutchins: Yes I get the grub menu. | 17:37 |
Toya | What do you mean by swapping? | 17:38 |
derek01 | BluesKaj: Yes I have the nvidia drivers | 17:38 |
jhutchins | Toya: If your system runs out of ram and starts using the swap space on the hard drive a lot it will slow everything down. | 17:38 |
Toya | Oh, no. Swap is 0% | 17:39 |
jhutchins | Toya: You can see this with top, or with the sysstat package's iostat. | 17:39 |
jhutchins | Toya: Is CPU usage high when trying to do these actions? | 17:39 |
Toya | I noticed that CPU is much much spikey than it used to be, like it would go up ~ 40% of cores | 17:40 |
Toya | Before it only went that high if I played a game on wine | 17:41 |

oaulakh | ok | 18:05 |
daftykins | and the last one you have "auto" and "rw" which should be "auto,rw" though you might not even need to specify read/write | 18:05 |
daftykins | "ntfs-3g" hasn't been necessary vs. "ntfs" for a very long time | 18:05 |

lrs_ | Bashing-om, Well. ive purged them multiple times | 18:17 |
lrs_ | BUt i thought bumblebee and primus need both? | 18:17 |
lrs_ | Or...? | 18:18 |
lrs_ | primusrun / optirun is the command i use | 18:18 |
wileee | lrs_, lighten the enter and use full sentences. | 18:18 |
lrs_ | Ok... i installed bumblebee-nvidia | 18:19 |
lrs_ | That was missing, now i cna open firefox | 18:19 |
lrs_ | With optirun firefox. But i have the same old problem with steam again | 18:20 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: From what I can gather ' optirun ' is a function of BumbleBee . Not within nvidia-prime. | 18:20 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, bumblebee uses primus | 18:20 |
lrs_ | primus is nvidias tool, bumblebee is opensource thing that uses nvidias cards | 18:21 |

pablokbs | Hello, I'm trying to automate the installation of landscape clients with Chef. Is there a way to check if the machine is already registered? | 18:27 |
derek01 | jhutchins: Ive already purged plasma | 18:27 |
oaulakh | how to make read and write permission to drive in fstab file http://paste.ubuntu.com/12255604/ now my drives are mounting perfectly but i duuno how to make read and write ? | 18:27 |
derek01 | jhutchins: Its going to purge roughly 500mb of data | 18:27 |
cfhowlett | derek01, apt-get -s commandgoeshere -s will "sandbox" the command, i.e. give you a preview only | 18:28 |
derek01 | cfhowlett: Im aware of whats going to be purged, just dont know if its relevant to my current system. As Im looking im seeing pulseaudio is included. So I just answered my own question lol | 18:29 |
lrs_ | Ok, so i uninstalled primus. | 18:29 |
lrs_ | Seems like i can still use optirun | 18:29 |
lrs_ | But primusrun is not working. So primusrun is for primus and optirun for bumblebee | 18:30 |
vivid | wileee: btw, where's the subjectivity? im pretty sure these channels are logged | 18:30 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: Homework time . Start at termianl command 'apt-cache show nvidia-prime ' . | 18:31 |
lrs_ | now i removed bumblebee too | 18:31 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12255652/ | 18:31 |
lrs_ | I installed that now. | 18:32 |
lrs_ | Should I install primus too? Or should i jkust stick with nvidia-prime? | 18:32 |
samba35 | please correct me if i am wrong if you are using genric/default kernel and not using kernel from recompile in that case if you have some configure is =y so that is load as a what and if it is load does that module show with lsmod command | 18:32 |
samba35 | a /boot/config-3.x.x-generic | 18:32 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, If I install primus, it wants me to install bumblebee too and vice versa. Dont get this. | 18:33 |
quarters | is there a recommended version of ubuntu that can run fairly decently on 1 gb of RAM? | 18:34 |
lrs_ | "For nvidia-prime to work, remove bumblebee and bumblebee-nvidia with a --purge first. Reinstall nvidia driver with nvidia prime. nvidia-prime uses the implementation of Nvidia's Optimus technology but in this case, the nvidia driver always stays on regardless of system load and the intel driver is only used as a sink." | 18:34 |
cfhowlett | lubuntu or xubuntu quarters | 18:34 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: Your goal is to get steam functional with optimus technology ? The current recomendation is to use nvidia-prime to control the graphics sets . Now, what sdo you gather from the 'apt-cache' output ? | 18:35 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, Well, i can now start steam reguralry | 18:35 |
lrs_ | Cant start games, it says.. | 18:35 |
darkxploit | hello does anyone knows what does this mean in the ntp log please 28 Aug 03:42:08 ntpd[44374]: 0.0.0.0 c012 02 freq_set kernel 56.888 PPM | 18:36 |
darkxploit | help me please | 18:36 |
marco_ | heello | 18:36 |
jhutchins | darkxploit: Did you try dropping it into google? | 18:36 |
lrs_ | http://askubuntu.com/questions/475756/could-not-find-required-opengl-entry-point-glgeterror Bashing-om | 18:36 |
lrs_ | Got this problem earlier too | 18:36 |
lrs_ | I think im gonna change nvidia version | 18:36 |
quarters | cfhowlett: thank you. I'll check out lubuntu. I'm hoping to run it on vmware | 18:37 |
darkxploit | jhutchins, i do not get enough hint. thats why i choose IRC to get an interactive discussion | 18:37 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: I am not a gamer. can not advise anything about games . | 18:37 |
lrs_ | Question is which version | 18:37 |
tertiary | im using iotop to monitor disk activity. Disk read is always 0 bytes/sec, never budges. I have many services running, including a python script to continually read a file 20mb at a time, but still nothing. I do have a gluster nfs running. Would that matter? Am I missing something here? | 18:37 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, YEah. But what nvidia version is the best, stable? nvidia-current is god damn ancient | 18:37 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2015/08/ubuntu-nvidia-graphics-drivers-ppa-is-ready-for-action what about this..? | 18:38 |
derek01 | ok | 18:38 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: Again, what nvidia graphics card . ' sudo ubuntu-drivers devices ; sudo ubuntu-drivers list ' . And match the chip set to the proper driver . | 18:39 |
derek01 | so im finally booted, in a gnome environment. The main reason i wanted to switch to KDE, was nautilus was messing up. Whenever I drag something more than a pixel, it crashes nautilus | 18:39 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, Well... the driver version is obviously old. 304 is the "current" one. They have released dozens up to 355 | 18:39 |
lrs_ | Im going with 355 | 18:40 |
lrs_ | Or hmmm | 18:40 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: Old card and new version driver, DOES not mean that the new version supports the old hardware . | 18:41 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: What does Nvidia recommend : http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_32667.html for the driver ? | 18:42 |
Mirodroid | lrs_, what gpu agian? | 18:45 |
Mirodroid | lrs_, i ask as i know a bit about the nvidia driver(s) | 18:45 |
Mirodroid | especialy with another distrobutions stupid naming convention for their official drivers | 18:45 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, Its not there | 18:49 |
oal | How can I see the ports open with UFW without enabling it? | 18:49 |
lrs_ | Mirodroid, NVIDIA NVS 5400M | 18:49 |
oal | And isn't it enough to do ufw allow 1234 to open a port? | 18:49 |
oal | I've locked myself out twice now... :p | 18:49 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: That card Nvidia recommneds the 352 version ! http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/90279/en-us | 18:51 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, Ok, done | 18:52 |

tnkhanh | hi I have packagekit in /usr and /usr/local, the one in /usr is from distro and older version, how to force use the one in /usr/local? | 18:53 |
Bernzel | Im trying to install Sublime Text 2. I tried running this in terminal http://askubuntu.com/questions/172698/how-do-i-install-sublime-text-2-3 and it started installing and seemed fine, but I can't find the software installed anywhere? | 18:55 |
jhutchins | Bernzel: See http://www.sublimetext.com/support for sublime support. It is not an ubuntu package, we do not know how to support it. | 18:56 |
derek01 | so now my issue is this, Moving any file more than a pixel crashes nautilus. Even when I try to just re-arrange my desktop, by moving a folder, everything disapears, and I have to start nautilus to get them back. | 18:57 |
demhlyr | Bernzel: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/07/sublime-text-3-ubuntu-ppa-now-available.html you can add a ppa for sublime | 18:58 |

tnkhanh | hi I have packagekit in /usr and /usr/local, the one in /usr is from distro and older version, how to force use the one in /usr/local? | 19:00 |
lrs_ | heh. seems its working | 19:03 |
lrs_ | BUt..... | 19:03 |
lrs_ | I had to install bumblebee... | 19:03 |
Mirodroid | ahh | 19:03 |
Mirodroid | wb | 19:03 |
lrs_ | But if i use steam... it works | 19:03 |
lrs_ | So strange | 19:03 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: Use what works . | 19:03 |
Mirodroid | yea the 5400M will utilize the 35x.x series nvidia driver | 19:03 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, Yeah well. I need it to use the 5400.. because the other gfx is slow as heck | 19:04 |
lrs_ | but when i start with just steam, im not really sure | 19:04 |
Mirodroid | on another channel i had someone come in saying the Nvidia 3400 series driver wasnt working on their 4200 TI | 19:04 |
Mirodroid | 340.x | 19:04 |
Bashing-om | lrs_: What is the on-die graphics chip set ? | 19:05 |
Mirodroid | the latest driver iirc just added support for the GTX950 | 19:05 |
lrs_ | But i picked primusrun as launchoption in steam. So i think it works...? | 19:05 |
lrs_ | So.. i start steam normal, and it *Should*start primusrun when i start a game | 19:05 |
lrs_ | Bashing-om, on-die? | 19:06 |
Mirodroid | Bashing-om, pretty sure lrs said Nvidia 5400M which is a quadro gpu | 19:06 |
lrs_ | NVIDIA NVS 5400M is the gfx cards used for performance, Intel HD Graphics 4000 is the gfx in the mb | 19:07 |
Mirodroid | Thinkpad? | 19:07 |
lrs_ | Yeah Thinkpad T530 | 19:07 |
Mirodroid | figgured | 19:07 |
Mirodroid | :) | 19:07 |
Bashing-om | Mirodroid: If this is not a hybrid graphics situation, then a means to switch graphics sets is not even in the equation . | 19:07 |
lrs_ | You? | 19:07 |
lrs_ | Thinkpad is good. But fucking nvidia on linux is hell | 19:07 |
Mirodroid | T61p | 19:07 |
lrs_ | Oh nice | 19:07 |
lrs_ | Thats the best of the best | 19:08 |

derek01 | anyone have any ideas relating to my nautilus errors? Im fairly certain this pertains to it : http://pastebin.com/TY6bUDsp | 19:10 |
fancyfetus | Hey guys | 19:12 |
fancyfetus | I'm having a lot of difficulty installing ubuntu in uefi mode | 19:12 |
daftykins | details? | 19:13 |
fancyfetus | I guess i tried to install it alongsite windows 10 a while back and gave up. I returned to try again, but I think my EFI partition is really messed up. In my bios boot options there is like... 7 ubuntu boot options | 19:13 |
daftykins | heh | 19:13 |
fancyfetus | none of which boot to ubuntu | 19:14 |
fancyfetus | I can't even boot to a usb containing ubuntu in UEFI mode. | 19:14 |
daftykins | but you did to install | 19:14 |
fancyfetus | I must have, yeah | 19:15 |
fancyfetus | But to be honest I'd forgotten that I even tried earlier. | 19:15 |
fancyfetus | So I have no idea what I did... | 19:15 |
tnkhanh | I think I just uninstalled ubuntu-desktop and everything is still running ok. | 19:16 |
fancyfetus | I've already deleted the ubuntu storage partition I created. How do I... reset my EFI partition | 19:16 |
tnkhanh | help! | 19:16 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: when you boot ubuntu what happens? | 19:16 |
EriC^^ | tnkhanh: what's the command you used? | 19:16 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, which one do I boot to? :P There is one partition that is a part of my ssd called ubuntu. | 19:17 |
fancyfetus | Then there are 7 other partitions that are 476GB in size (which doesn't make sense...) | 19:17 |
fancyfetus | all called ubuntu | 19:17 |
fancyfetus | When I boot to the main one that is part of my ssd, it just boots into windows | 19:17 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: do you have a live usb? | 19:19 |
tnkhanh | EriC^^: check this out. It seems I uninstalled ubuntu-desktop http://paste.ubuntu.com/12256040/ | 19:19 |
fancyfetus | oh, I just tried booting to the main ssd partition called Ubuntu | 19:19 |
fancyfetus | and It took me to GNU GRUB | 19:19 |
EriC^^ | tnkhanh: why are you removing that package? | 19:20 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok | 19:20 |
tnkhanh | EriC^^: it seems to be "conflicting package", with another package. I'm not sure what that means, I'm just trying stuff | 19:21 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, It's just the grub command line though. I do have a live usb. Do I boot to it in UEFI or normal mode? | 19:21 |
EriC^^ | tnkhanh: what other package? | 19:21 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: grub prompt is fine | 19:21 |
tnkhanh | EriC^^: the other is packagekit | 19:21 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: type ls -l | 19:22 |
fancyfetus | That's an L right? | 19:22 |
tnkhanh | EriC^^: it seems everything is still fine and even better, packagekit not conflicting anymore! | 19:22 |
fancyfetus | "error: file --l' not found." | 19:22 |
fancyfetus | ls works though. | 19:23 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, try ls (hdx,gptY)/ | 19:23 |
=== Rez__ is now known as LoRez | ||
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: pick one that looks like the ubuntu partition | 19:24 |
fancyfetus | disk -hdx,gptY not found | 19:24 |
EriC^^ | tnkhanh: i think you need that python package though | 19:24 |
fancyfetus | (hd0) (hd1) (hd1, msdos1) (hd2) (hd2, msdos1) (hd3) (hd3, gpt3) (hd3,gpt2) (hd3,gpt1) (hd4) (hd4,msdos1) | 19:25 |
fancyfetus | that's what ls prints | 19:25 |
EriC^^ | tnkhanh: why are you installing packagekit anyways? | 19:25 |
tnkhanh | EriC^^: its a dependency to build plasma-desktop which is what I'm trying to do | 19:26 |
fancyfetus | also, to be clear, I want to remove all traces of ubuntu from my efi and start fresh | 19:26 |
EriC^^ | tnkhanh: oh, ok | 19:26 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, can you boot the live usb? | 19:27 |
fancyfetus | in uefi or normal mode? | 19:27 |
fancyfetus | okay, launched in uefi mode, EriC^^ | 19:29 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, type sudo parted -l | 19:30 |
EriC^^ | paste it in paste.ubuntu.com | 19:31 |
fancyfetus | paste.ubuntu.com/12256185/ | 19:31 |
fancyfetus | paste.ubuntu.com/12256185/ EriC^^ | 19:32 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: where do you want to install ubuntu? | 19:34 |
derek01 | anyone have any ideas relating to my nautilus errors? Im fairly certain this pertains to it : http://pastebin.com/TY6bUDsp | 19:34 |
fancyfetus | on the 500GB SSD | 19:34 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, the samsung drive. | 19:35 |
j2daosh | hello all. This is probably not the appropriate place for this, but i had a VM with kali on it that started failing when it did a disk check because the vml file was full | 19:35 |
j2daosh | s/vml/vmk/ | 19:35 |
j2daosh | anyway, I loaded up a bigger drive for the kali install and now i am trying to recover the data. I loaded the disk to the new installation but according to diskmanager and partitionmanager, it doesn't have a partition table now (i think it must have gotten corrupted from the failed fsck). what are my recovery options? | 19:36 |
MonkeyDust | j2daosh idd, kali is not supported here | 19:36 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, i think you have 34gb at the end free space | 19:36 |
fancyfetus | 134* | 19:37 |
EriC^^ | right | 19:37 |
j2daosh | MonkeyDust: i know but kali was dead and since it is has a ubuntu base, uses a ubuntu gui, recovery should be similiar | 19:37 |
BenLubar | apt-get just gets stuck on "0% [Connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com (2001:67c:1562::17)]" when I try to `sudo apt-get install ghc` | 19:37 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, what about my currently messed up EFI partition? | 19:37 |
daftykins | j2daosh: still off topic i'm afraid, you can go nuts with 'testdisk' though - but you'll get no more input in here. | 19:37 |
OerHeks | j2daosh, wrong,kali 2 has debian as base, good luck in #debian | 19:37 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: type sudo efibootmgr -v | 19:37 |
OerHeks | kali failing, lolz | 19:37 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, command not found | 19:38 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, type sudo apt-get install efibootmgr | 19:38 |
fancyfetus | http://paste.ubuntu.com/12256265 | 19:39 |
fancyfetus | lol, that doesn't look right at all | 19:40 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: try sudo efibootmgr -B 000F | 19:42 |
lauri | Hi, is there anyone working with Ubuntu Certified program? | 19:42 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, I deleted the partition that had storage for my past installation of ubuntu | 19:42 |
fancyfetus | that's why I have so much free space. | 19:42 |
fancyfetus | it says, "You must specify a boot entry to delete (see the -b option) | 19:43 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, try sudo efibootmgr -b 000F -B | 19:43 |
fancyfetus | alright, it's gone | 19:44 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, why does 000B exist? It's just a removable drive, nothing to boot from. | 19:44 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: i dunno, it probably just lists it | 19:45 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: try for i in {0001..9}; do sudo efibootmgr -b $i -B; done | 19:46 |
EriC^^ | wait | 19:46 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: try for i in {0003..9}; do sudo efibootmgr -b $i -B; done | 19:46 |
fancyfetus | LOL | 19:47 |
fancyfetus | I'd like to keep my windows partition :P | 19:47 |
EriC^^ | :D | 19:47 |
fancyfetus | There are still a few ubuntu partitions | 19:48 |
fancyfetus | 000A, 000C and 000E. Remove those as well? | 19:49 |
EriC^^ | yeah | 19:49 |
fancyfetus | okay done | 19:49 |
EriC^^ | ok, start the installer | 19:50 |
fancyfetus | (Y) | 19:50 |
fancyfetus | Is the 3rd party software any good? Or is it bloaty? | 19:51 |
EriC^^ | it's ok, you need it for lots of stuff like mp3 codecs | 19:51 |
fancyfetus | awesome | 19:51 |
EriC^^ | i think | 19:52 |
fancyfetus | Install Ubuntu alongside WIndows Boot Manager? | 19:52 |
EriC^^ | yeah | 19:52 |
MonkeyDust | EriC^^ FYI: with the command 'batch', you can also type the different script lines one by one and execute immediately | 19:53 |
ash_work | is this how you would move all files except hidden ones? mv [^.]* /dir/ ? | 19:53 |
EriC^^ | MonkeyDust: cool, i will check it out | 19:53 |
EriC^^ | ty :) | 19:53 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, it says that some partition tables will be changed. | 19:53 |
fancyfetus | SCSI1 (0, 0, 0) (sda) | 19:53 |
expedion | Hey guys, got a question on connecting to a sftp server through nautilus. Basically I have a .ppk file that I need to use. How should I go about doing this? | 19:54 |
fancyfetus | partition #4 and 5 specifically. | 19:54 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: no problem | 19:54 |
fancyfetus | will this be filling the 135 GB of unallocated space or will this be taking from my windows installation | 19:54 |
expedion | It's driving me nuts haha, been trying to get it to work for days now. | 19:54 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: it will use the unallocated space | 19:55 |
fancyfetus | installing | 19:55 |
EriC^^ | ok | 19:56 |
fancyfetus | Can gnome be run ontop of ubuntu without having to install ubuntu gnome separately? | 19:56 |
EriC^^ | yeah | 19:57 |
EriC^^ | sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop | 19:57 |
expedion | Running Gnome on top of Ubuntu, wouldn't that make things slower? | 19:57 |
expedion | Since you'll have Unity AND Gnome running :/, | 19:57 |
auronandace | unity uses gnome 3 as it's base | 19:57 |
fancyfetus | Don't think it would be noticeable for me :P | 19:58 |
MonkeyDust | unity is a compiz plugin for gnome3 | 19:58 |
expedion | Still, 2 instances though. Unity and Gnome running at the same time. | 19:58 |
fancyfetus | Oh man... I hated Unity with a passion when it was first released. | 19:58 |
expedion | Why fancyfetus? | 19:58 |
EriC^^ | expedion: they don't run together, you can choose either one at the login screen | 19:59 |
fancyfetus | Not sure. I can't remember my reasoning. It's fine. | 19:59 |
juan_ | Hi guys | 19:59 |
EriC^^ | unity is just a de too | 19:59 |
MonkeyDust | expedion you mean gnome-shell | 19:59 |
expedion | EriC^^ nice didn't know :). | 19:59 |
fancyfetus | It's fine now* | 19:59 |
expedion | And how can you switch back to Unity from Gnome? | 19:59 |
Jarvis007 | Test | 19:59 |
fancyfetus | expedion, by logging off and on again | 19:59 |
MonkeyDust | expedion logout, switch, login | 19:59 |
fancyfetus | You can choose it from the log in page :) | 19:59 |
expedion | Logout as in, logout account yea? | 19:59 |
juan_ | i have a question | 20:00 |
fancyfetus | yes sir. | 20:00 |
expedion | That's awesome man. | 20:00 |
Jarvis007 | expedion: I'm hling you just for testing's sake k? | 20:00 |
juan_ | impact in some if i disable IPv6 in Ubuntu? | 20:00 |
expedion | The thing with Gnome that I just find the top panel... wtf, looks so ugly. Well atleast the stuff on the top left does. | 20:00 |
fancyfetus | expedion, you can have others too! Plasma looked nice but was super ganky | 20:00 |
fancyfetus | expedion, ohhh but you can skin it to look OH SO GOOD | 20:00 |
expedion | And like the active tabs on Gnome.... my god. Just plain texts :/ chaotic. | 20:01 |
Jarvis007 | k done testing | 20:01 |
expedion | Fancyfetus, got a link to a nice skin for it? | 20:01 |
fancyfetus | Thanks EriC^^! :) I was under the assumption that install ubuntu UEFI was a black magic task. Thanks for the walk through! | 20:01 |
fancyfetus | expedion, I combined two skins to make my own :) | 20:02 |
juan_ | make the diference disabling IPv6 in Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS? | 20:02 |
expedion | I did the sudo apt-get to get gnome, I'm prompted to an installed now where it asks me to configure gdm, I can choose between gdm and lightdm, which one should i chooose? | 20:02 |
fancyfetus | expedion, i combined iris light and yellowstone for elementary OS. | 20:03 |
MonkeyDust | fancyfetus are you on elementary now? | 20:03 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: no problem :) | 20:03 |
fancyfetus | MonkeyDust, I never was. I really just took the images and spliced them into iris light | 20:04 |
expedion | I picked GDM, guess I can't go wrong there haha. | 20:04 |
coy_ | one sec | 20:04 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, I heard that if you install ubuntu gnome desktop ontop of an existing ubuntu installation you could run into some package conflicts. | 20:04 |
fancyfetus | This was 2 years ago though. | 20:04 |
juan_ | anyone answer my questin :( | 20:04 |
MonkeyDust | !patience | juan_ | 20:05 |
ubottu | juan_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 20:05 |
expedion | Time to logout and login to see what gnome is like :) brb. | 20:05 |
fancyfetus | expedion, vanilla gnome is fairly ugly :( Prepare to be disappointed. | 20:05 |
juan_ | oks, thanks MonkeyDust | 20:05 |
coy_ | joining call now | 20:05 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: hmm, i've no idea | 20:06 |
juan_ | #quit | 20:06 |
juan_ | :exit | 20:06 |
fancyfetus | oooo installation done. lets see if it worked! | 20:06 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: i tried installing lubuntu once with unity, and it changed the pop ups i got in unity and other stuff, and i ended up removing it | 20:07 |
fancyfetus | I booted straight into windows :( No dual boot picker thing | 20:07 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: try the boot menu | 20:07 |
fancyfetus | Yeah, I might have windows set as first priority | 20:08 |
fancyfetus | All is well :) EriC^^ I have another random 476GB ubuntu partition though. | 20:10 |
EriC^^ | odd | 20:10 |
shazaum | hggdh: que feio hein... | 20:10 |
EriC^^ | does it boot to the grub menu when you boot the pc? | 20:11 |
shazaum | hggdh: mesmo assim, nao vou ficar bravo, quer mais uma piada? | 20:11 |
gruntz | Hi. What's wrong with ubuntu and ugly looking tray icons? Like here https://i.imgur.com/YunP4ls.png (second from left) - it's spideroak (qt application) | 20:11 |
MonkeyDust | shazaum yes | 20:11 |
fancyfetus | I need to set ubuntu as the 1st priority boot to bring up the grub menu, EriC^^ | 20:11 |
hggdh | shazaum: you will also get banned here | 20:11 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: oh, ok | 20:12 |
expedion | Ok back, how do I uninstall gnome? I used this command to install it: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop | 20:12 |
MonkeyDust | gruntz firstly, try a different !theme | 20:12 |
fancyfetus | YOU ARE STUCK WITH IT FOREVER. MUHAHHAHAHA | 20:12 |
expedion | I logged in back to unity and it seems to have taken on the font of Gnome :/ | 20:12 |
fancyfetus | Yeah, that's the sort of stuff I meant about installing one ontop of the other. EriC^^ | 20:13 |
expedion | Plus Gnome takes considerably more resources to run I noticed. | 20:13 |
expedion | Anyone an idea? | 20:14 |
EriC^^ | expedion: type cat /var/log/apt/history.log and get the packages it installed newly | 20:14 |
gruntz | MonkeyDust: what's wrong with theme? it's just icon that doesn't look like native spideroak's one | 20:14 |
expedion | Ok done, EriC^^, what's the next step? | 20:15 |
EriC^^ | paste them in gedit and save | 20:15 |
expedion | I just want to uninstall Gnome. | 20:15 |
EriC^^ | if you just uninstall the package ubuntu-gnome-desktop you'll have other packages leftover | 20:16 |
fancyfetus | the package manager that fedora uses is actually pretty nice. It lets you rollback actions | 20:16 |
expedion | Hehe EriC^^, moments like these makes me say to people who say this: Linux, really easy to use... as Bullshit haha | 20:16 |
expedion | Just a sec, I'll make the file :). | 20:17 |
MonkeyDust | gruntz i was thinking, with a different theme comes a different icon set | 20:17 |
fancyfetus | Oh man, there are a lot of things that hardcore linux users will say that I disagree with :P | 20:17 |
jhutchins | fancyfetus: In order to do that, the RPM repos have to keep every version of every package, plus metadata. | 20:17 |
fancyfetus | I think that Microsoft Word is hands down a better word editor than libre or openoffice | 20:17 |
jhutchins | fancyfetus: It's really nice if an update breaks your system, but a pain to maintain. | 20:18 |
gruntz | MonkeyDust: spideroak have client in qt, so change of gtk icon theme will not help | 20:18 |
jhutchins | fancyfetus: Also makes the local package lists on your machine much bigger. | 20:18 |
fancyfetus | jhutchins, ahh. I didn't think it would be so tough to maintain :( They use a different package manager now, right? Man or something. | 20:18 |
jhutchins | fancyfetus: It's like dpkg vs. aptitude, rpm is the package manager, they use yum now as the user tool/wrapper. | 20:19 |
fancyfetus | ahh | 20:19 |
daftykins | i hear even yum is being deprecated | 20:19 |
jhutchins | daftykins: It's still in EL7, which came out last year. | 20:20 |
expedion | I liked Fedora ALOT, just the support that Ubuntu was lacking in Fedora. | 20:20 |
daftykins | yeah but things often remain for transitional purposes, anywho wrong distro so i shall be silent | 20:21 |
expedion | Only thing with unity that I kind of have to get used to is the pretentious window controls on the left and the launcher always being on the left. | 20:21 |
expedion | They just... wanted to have it their way and put things to the left. | 20:21 |
Aqui1a | Hello, is this the official suopport channel for Ubuntu? | 20:22 |
MonkeyDust | expedion it's because, in time, desktop and phone interface will be the same: everything on the left | 20:23 |
EriC^^ | expedion: open gedit, delete the lines that say Install: ... and leave only the package names | 20:23 |
fancyfetus | expedion, yeah I don't like the thing on the left either. | 20:24 |
daftykins | Aqui1a: yes. | 20:25 |
daftykins | Aqui1a: the clue is in the topic | 20:25 |
moss | dpkg: error processing package libapache2-mod-wsgi (--configure): | 20:25 |
expedion | Sec EriC^^ | 20:25 |
moss | subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | 20:25 |
Aqui1a | Could somebody please help. Ubuntu will not load up for me. Firstly, GRUB has stopped counting down from 10 (the autoboot thing), and when I manually hit enter on Ubuntu, it looks like it will load, but only a flashing cursor appears and remains on the screen | 20:25 |
moss | I have uninstalled this module and tried to reinstall it and there are _NO ERROR MESSAGES_ | 20:25 |
EriC^^ | !nomodeset | Aqui1a , also try an older kernel | 20:25 |
ubottu | Aqui1a , also try an older kernel: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 20:25 |
expedion | EriC^^ I sent you a link to the log. | 20:25 |
fancyfetus | i also don't like how ubuntu and fedora have inconsistent windowy things. For Fedora it has metacity and gtx | 20:25 |
expedion | There's install: only 1 time in the file. | 20:26 |
fancyfetus | I wish there would just be one so that theming could be consistent. | 20:26 |
tgm4883 | moss: have you tried 'dpkg-reconfigure libapache2-mod-wsgi' | 20:26 |
EriC^^ | expedion: ok, delete whatever is before the packages, and leave only package ..(...) package (..... | 20:26 |
MonkeyDust | fancyfetus there are over 300 active distro's, they all look different | 20:26 |
fancyfetus | MonkeyDust, but fedora uses both at the same time! | 20:27 |
fancyfetus | some windows applications use gtx and others use metacity | 20:27 |
Aqui1a | Eric, would this still apply if it had been working for a long time prior to this issue? | 20:27 |
MonkeyDust | fancyfetus ok, but how big is the fedora .iso? | 20:28 |
expedion | EriC^^.... I have no idea what I should do. | 20:28 |
Aqui1a | Eric, I started getting this problem seemingly out of nowhere, after months of using Ubuntu just fine | 20:28 |
expedion | Could you check the log I sent you? I'm really not that sophisticated with Ubuntu yet. | 20:28 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: yes, a newer kernel or graphics driver does this sometimes | 20:28 |
fancyfetus | MonkeyDust, larger than the ubuntu one if I'm not mistaken | 20:28 |
Aqui1a | Eric, ok thanks. I'll try to do this | 20:28 |
expedion | Let me reboot, maybe that will help put the fonts back into perspective | 20:29 |
expedion | Brb. | 20:29 |
fancyfetus | I can't access tty from my new installation. I just see a black screen. | 20:29 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: np | 20:29 |
derek01 | anyone have any ideas relating to my nautilus errors? Im fairly certain this pertains to it : http://pastebin.com/TY6bUDsp | 20:29 |
bristot | thanks hggdh o. | 20:30 |
daftykins | derek01: test another user | 20:31 |
auronandace | derek01: didn't you switch to kde? why are you using nautilus instead of dolphin? | 20:32 |
OerHeks | auronandace, he removed kde .. i just read back | 20:32 |
derek01 | daftykins: same thing under guest session | 20:33 |
derek01 | auronandace: I gave up on KDE, the only reason I wanted to switch was because of this issue im attempting to resolve now haha | 20:33 |
daftykins | ah well, i reckon you nerfed your install. | 20:33 |
daftykins | no idea what you've done to that thing. | 20:33 |
OerHeks | just reinstall ubuntu-dekstop, should do. | 20:33 |
derek01 | daftykins: this was happening before I attempted to get KDE working | 20:33 |
daftykins | so yeah, your whole install is funky :) | 20:34 |
Aqui1a | Eric, do you happen to have a clearer, easier-to-understand set of instructions you could link me too? | 20:34 |
derek01 | daftykins: un funky it! | 20:34 |
derek01 | haha jk | 20:34 |
auronandace | derek01: you've had quite a few issues, i'd recommend reinstalling from scratch | 20:34 |
moss | tgm4883: libapache2-mod-wsgi is broken or not fully installed it says | 20:34 |
daftykins | derek01: sure, go reinstall after stability testing :P | 20:34 |
wex | hello friends can one of you please suggest a good alternative to pinnacle studio for linux? | 20:34 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, my efi is borked on second boot!!! | 20:35 |
auronandace | derek01: though if you really want to persist and you are not too attached to nautilus you could try another file manager (thunar is my favourite, but pcmanfm is also good) | 20:35 |
derek01 | daftykins: hahaha you wun | 20:35 |
fancyfetus | there is no more good ubuntu boot option. I only have two of the weird ubuntu 476GB boot options. EriC^^ :( | 20:35 |
ubottu | Error: Could not gather data from Ubuntu for bug #476 (https://launchpad.net/bugs/476). The error has been logged | 20:35 |
moss | like wtf | 20:36 |
derek01 | OerHeks: when i run apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, its attempting to download 293mb of packages, so im guessing it might be related | 20:36 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: as soon as the pc boots, hold shift to get grub, then press e over ubuntu, then go to the line that says linux /vmlinuz ...... quiet splash , and add nomodeset after quiet splash, then press ctrl+x to boot | 20:36 |
Aqui1a | Eric, thanks | 20:36 |
fancyfetus | it;s back again.. I'm so confused D: | 20:36 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: to try an older kernel, go to advanced in grub | 20:36 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: that happens a lot | 20:37 |
fancyfetus | a new ubuntu boot option is created every time I try to boot into ubuntu... | 20:38 |
fancyfetus | is that right?! | 20:38 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: the bios might be hard coded to do that, you can switch the efi files | 20:38 |
EriC^^ | no, that's odd | 20:38 |
EriC^^ | if you switch the efi files the bios will think you're booting windows and it will play nice | 20:39 |
EriC^^ | it's common practice, i've done the same | 20:39 |
fancyfetus | how? | 20:40 |
Aqui1a | nomodeset didn't work. It's not a completely black screen, it has a flashing white cursor thing in the top left. It stays like this until I have to manually reboot. | 20:40 |
gruntz | Hi. What's wrong with ubuntu and ugly looking tray icons? Like here https://i.imgur.com/YunP4ls.png (second from left) - it's spideroak (qt application) | 20:40 |

moss | MonkeyDust: I installed libapache2-mod-wsgi - then i uninstalled it by mistake, when i try to reinstall it, it FAILS. | 20:48 |
daftykins | it's pretty easy, it's a package going on - failing, being removed - erroring (not a problem) then going back on again because the user is unfamiliar with the definition of insanity | 20:48 |

EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ? | 20:54 |
beaky | hello | 20:54 |
beaky | how do i add more workspaces | 20:54 |
daftykins | moss: since it's tripping up on the mods path, back it up - then delete it yourself and try removal again- then it'll pass the check. | 20:54 |
moss | daftykins: a2dismod wsgi (ERROR module doesn't exist!) && service apache2 stop && sudo apt-get autoremove (still produces error) | 20:54 |
fancyfetus | sorry, done EriC^^ | 20:54 |
moss | daftykins: okay. | 20:54 |

Aqui1a | Bah, nothing works... I don't know why it won't start :( | 21:22 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: does it say anything in the terminal after sudo service gdm restart? | 21:22 |
MonkeyDust | NGC3982 is this usefull (iptraf) http://www.slashroot.in/find-network-traffic-and-bandwidth-usage-process-linux | 21:22 |
Aqui1a | I reinstalled lightdm | 21:23 |
Aqui1a | and.. then it went straight to that black screen with the flashing white cursor | 21:23 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: try reinstalling gdm | 21:23 |
fancyfetus_lapto | EriC^^, my keyboard is no longer being detected in Ubuntu | 21:24 |
fancyfetus_lapto | oh nvm | 21:24 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: did gdm used to work? | 21:24 |
Aqui1a | I don't know, I've had lightdm and gdm installed. I don't know which one I've been using | 21:24 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=a6qcH7QG | 21:25 |
Aqui1a | Holy moly! | 21:26 |
Aqui1a | Holy moly it's working! | 21:26 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=rgbRTqRU | 21:26 |
Aqui1a | I messed about with lightdm, purged nvidia drivers.. and some other little things I've already forgotten. Booting into Ubuntu normally has worked! | 21:26 |
NGC3982 | MonkeyDust: I don't think the other alternatives measure processes | 21:27 |
Aqui1a | Now that I'm in, Eric^^, is there any way I can do like... a big search for errors or something | 21:27 |
Aqui1a | or clean broken files or w/e | 21:27 |
Aqui1a | Damnit. I knew it was too good to be true lol... | 21:28 |
Aqui1a | As soon as I enter password, I get a little box saying something about report a systme program error | 21:28 |

cuqa_ | hello, just been to your fellas in #debian also | 21:29 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: try sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi | 21:29 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: and sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi | 21:29 |
cuqa_ | i have to demand that lines 120+121 are being removed from here http://pastie.org/private/smcbd4htzkg6wz9ewvflma#13 | 21:29 |
cuqa_ | its /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server | 21:29 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: you can try sudo apt-get -f install | 21:29 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, done | 21:30 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: try sudo efibootmgr -o 0000,0012,0001,000D,000E,000F,0010,0011,0013,0014 | 21:30 |
auronandace | cuqa_: demand all you want, this is just a support channel, we are not the developers | 21:30 |
cuqa_ | this is pretty disgusting because you do not expect your nfs to break sooner or later if you dont explicitly allow localhost in rpcbind or portmap | 21:30 |
cuqa_ | np, maybe someone is bored and will push a new version to the ubuntu repo | 21:31 |
MonkeyDust | cuqa_ you're in the wrong channel | 21:31 |
Aqui1a | Eric^^, do you know why my desktop is just blank? | 21:32 |
cuqa_ | which one is the correct one MonkeyDust | 21:32 |
Aqui1a | There's no menus, no icons. Just the default background image and the mouse cursor | 21:32 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: no, you could try apt-cache depends ubuntu-gnome-desktop | awk '/Depends/ {print $2}' | xargs sudo apt-get -y install --reinstall | 21:33 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=V7DT4vYY | 21:33 |
OerHeks | cuqa_, goto launchpad for those issues, file a bureport? | 21:34 |
OerHeks | *bugreport | 21:34 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, you can try deleting the boot menu's that have ubuntu, leave 0014 though | 21:34 |
fancyfetus | done | 21:35 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, try restarting | 21:35 |
Aqui1a | Alight Eric^^, I don't know what that means but I'll give it a quick Google | 21:36 |
Aqui1a | I'm just updating/upgrading atm | 21:36 |
fancyfetus | restarting into BIOS, windows or ubuntu? | 21:36 |
EriC^^ | choose the windows one | 21:36 |
nomic | bios is the pc bios | 21:36 |
nomic | not = windows or ubuntu | 21:37 |
fancyfetus | nomic, I know. I should have but an oxford comma. | 21:37 |
fancyfetus | BIOS, Windows, or Ubuntu* | 21:37 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, no update-grub? | 21:37 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: no | 21:38 |
nomic | i had a nasty traumatic experience last time I blew away the microsoft tax / brand new copy of windows -- last time I wrote to dell there was no reply .. had to go through windows 8 to turn EUFI was it, off .. had to look @ the crap | 21:38 |
nomic | it was horrible | 21:38 |
* nomic was traumatised for weeks | 21:38 | |
nomic | saw adware, everything | 21:38 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: it will reinstall some of the packages that ubuntu-gnome depends on | 21:39 |
Aqui1a | How do you do that, nomic? | 21:39 |
nomic | dunno it was complex | 21:39 |
nomic | things hidden in window s8 | 21:40 |
Aqui1a | Is it everything after apt-cache? The entire line, Eric^^? | 21:40 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: yes | 21:40 |
Aqui1a | Thanks, Eric^^ I'll try that once this update finishes... Currently at about 3 minutes lol | 21:40 |
fancyfetus_lapto | EriC^^, it worked, but I'm STILL getting those stupid ubuntu boot entries :/ | 21:41 |
fancyfetus_lapto | One is created everytime I boot into ubuntu | 21:41 |
EriC^^ | odd | 21:41 |
fancyfetus_lapto | is there a way to disable writing to the file or something? | 21:42 |
EriC^^ | you could add efibootmgr -b $(efibootmgr | awk '$2 ~ /ubuntu/ {print$1}' | cut -c 5-8) -B | 21:45 |
EriC^^ | to /etc/rc.local | 21:45 |
fancyfetus_lapto | will that work 100%? | 21:46 |
MonkeyDust | EriC^^ what's the -B ? | 21:46 |
EriC^^ | MonkeyDust: delete | 21:46 |
fancyfetus_lapto | MonkeyDust, every time I boot into ubuntu, my ubuntu boot entry is changed to a useless entry named ubuntu and a new real ubuntu entry is created. | 21:47 |
fancyfetus_lapto | I'm on Boot0015 now for the proper ubuntu partition :( | 21:48 |
fancyfetus_lapto | uh wait... | 21:48 |
fancyfetus | EriC^^, why does it say current is 0000? | 21:48 |

fancyfetus | http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=8Yf8s51k | 21:49 |
fancyfetus | 0000 is Windows Boot Manager. Shouldn't I be 0014 or 0015? | 21:49 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus_lapto: hmm it won't work if there's more than 1 entry at a time i think | 21:49 |
EriC^^ | you could add for i in $(efibootmgr | grep "ubuntu.*ACPI" | cut -c 5-8); do efibootmgr -b $i -B; done | 21:50 |
EriC^^ | that should delete them all and leave the real ubuntu one | 21:50 |
Aqui1a | Eric^^, I did that, and I still got the error 'System Program Problem Detected' after the login screen :( | 21:50 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: that happens sometimes | 21:52 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus: no 0000 is the windows one | 21:52 |
fancyfetus_lapto | yeah, so when it says BootCurrent: 0000 what does that mean? | 21:52 |
meLon | I'm reverting `fglrx` to the open source drivers and I'm getting a weird unmet dependencies error: http://pastie.org/private/q7sevpdyvuqvusp6kqsq Any suggestions? | 21:52 |
Aqui1a | Eric^^, yes but I still keep getting a blank, non-resonsive desktop | 21:53 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus_lapto: it means it's booted | 21:53 |
fancyfetus_lapto | EriC^^, wont this continuously increase the number of the entry? I'm on 15 right now. | 21:53 |
fancyfetus_lapto | couldn't it reach like... FFFF one day? | 21:53 |
OerHeks | meLon, i have seen these weird errors before, elementary ? | 21:55 |
EriC^^ | Aqui1a: try the guest account | 21:55 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus_lapto: i dunno | 21:55 |
fancyfetus_lapto | EriC^^, can I like.. disable ACPI in bios or something like that? | 21:56 |
EriC^^ | who knows :D | 21:56 |
meLon | Sorry, I'm not sure what you're asking OerHeks | 21:56 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus_lapto: not sure | 21:56 |
MonkeyDust | meLon what's the output of cat /etc/issue | 21:57 |
OerHeks | = elementary desktop | 21:57 |
Aqui1a | Ok Eric^^, I did that, and the same thing except without the error... No desktop icons/menu, just the default bg image along with the mouse cursor. And, just like with my own account, it logs me out after about 5 seconds. | 21:57 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus_lapto: i've no idea about it | 21:57 |
Aqui1a | Eric^^, that last bit is new... dunno why it's doing that. D: | 21:57 |
meLon | Ubuntu 14.04.3 Interesting, MonkeyDust. Could have sworn I was on 14.04.2 | 21:58 |
EriC^^ | fancyfetus_lapto: don't you need acpi? | 21:58 |
tgm4883 | meLon: you've done updates | 21:58 |

_7oshi | good morning all, it my first time Im running Linux.. | 22:04 |
fancyfetus_lapto | Does anyone know why my tty is just a black screen? | 22:04 |
Aqui1a | Does anyone have any advice? :( | 22:04 |
critical1 | If anyone can point me to the right channel/forum to get help for this, id greatly appreciate it (https://goo.gl/CSVVzx) | 22:06 |
MonkeyDust | critical1 in short, what does it say? | 22:07 |
Aqui1a | Could someone please help? Or, let me know where I can get help? | 22:09 |
critical1 | @MonkeyDust is it hard to summarize. Using aptitude I am unable to apt-get download packages from repositories on the fly (using Dir::Etc::SourceList) because when I have the package installed aptitude wants to find the one I have installed, instead of the latest one in the repo (specified by Dir::Etc::SourceList) | 22:10 |
fancyfetus_lapto | Okay... that's it... | 22:11 |
Aqui1a | I'm going to go and come back another time | 22:11 |
Aqui1a | Thanks for the help anyway | 22:11 |
fancyfetus_lapto | I'm running ubuntu in a Virtual machine. | 22:11 |
MonkeyDust | critical1 use either aptitude or apt-get ... why do you still use or require aptitude *after* the package was installed? | 22:12 |
critical1 | im using apt-get download, i dont want to install it, I want the physical .deb package. | 22:13 |
critical1 | I want to point my sources at => http://myrepo1 testing main, `apt-get download somepackage`, then point to a different source => http://ftp.another testing updates, and get a different package `apt-get download somepackage-dev`. | 22:14 |
MonkeyDust | critical1 what are you trying to achieve? | 22:15 |
critical1 | however when I have any of these packages installed (somepackage, somepackage-dev) on my local machine, apt-get download will not retrieve the file | 22:15 |
critical1 | I want to download a package by version/architecture from any repository I want | 22:15 |
critical1 | just point my sources at it | 22:15 |
critical1 | but without modifying my local machines /etc/apt/sources.list files | 22:16 |
critical1 | that is why I am using the -o Dir::Etc::SourceList override | 22:16 |
Bashing-om | meLon: Before purring and re-installing the dependencies, there is " this may be caused by held packages. " . What results ' sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ' ? | 22:16 |
genii | critical1: If it won't install the package with same name over the other package, odds are it's due to the versioning scheme, so it thinks the installed one is newer | 22:18 |
critical1 | I dont want to install @genii, just download | 22:18 |
boris | my machine performed 2 unexpected reboots today. what log can i check to see what may have caused it | 22:18 |
critical1 | my link (https://goo.gl/CSVVzx) shows you how to reproduce | 22:20 |
Bashing-om | boris: Log files ar in /var/log/ directory. Might pay attention to kern.log and syslog files . | 22:22 |
boris | ty Bashing-om | 22:23 |
genii | critical1: Try setting APT::Archives::MaxAge "30"; value to 2 and APT::Archives::MinAge "2"; value to 1 in /etc/apt/apt.conf | 22:23 |
genii | ( or specify manually with -o flag of apt-get ) | 22:24 |
critical1 | do I need that on the apt-get update as well? or just the apt-get download? | 22:25 |
fancyfetus_lapto | What's the very best virtual machine application? | 22:25 |
genii | critical1: Just the update | 22:26 |
genii | critical1: Or make it universal by putting the values inthe apt.conf | 22:26 |
critical1 | that did not work | 22:28 |
critical1 | `E: Can't find a source to download version` | 22:30 |
fancyfetus_lapto | wow, there really aren't a lot of good VM applications for windows | 22:33 |
fancyfetus_lapto | parallels and fusion are both mac exclusive? | 22:34 |
reisio | for windows? | 22:34 |
fancyfetus_lapto | yeah | 22:34 |
fancyfetus_lapto | I want to run the VM in windows and virtualize linux in it | 22:35 |
reisio | fancyfetus_lapto: VirtualBox | 22:35 |
OerHeks | or hyperV Azure, http://blog.canonical.com/2012/06/07/official-ubuntu-images-now-available-on-windows-azure/ | 22:36 |
OerHeks | :_D | 22:36 |
reisio | no, that will make your life a hell | 22:37 |
critical1 | If using virtualbox on W10, use the latest nightly. | 22:37 |
reisio | when you're looking for software worth using, try to avoid that which was made available only after it was found out the authors violated a license | 22:37 |
Umeaboy | Installing Bumblebee in 15.04 completely freezes my brand new laptop. | 22:38 |
Umeaboy | Asus N550JK. | 22:38 |
Umeaboy | Hybrid graphics | 22:38 |
Umeaboy | Nvidia Optimus. | 22:39 |
OerHeks | isn't nvidia-prime current ? | 22:39 |
Umeaboy | Any kernel I've tried lower than 4. | 22:39 |
Umeaboy | OerHeks: Doesn't that get installed during the installation of Ubuntu? | 22:39 |
OerHeks | Umeaboy, yes, i just read it to check. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/HybridGraphics | 22:40 |
k1l | Umeaboy: bumblebee is deprecated. nvidia now ships official linux drivers. nvidia-prime that is and it works with the nvidia-current packages | 22:40 |
Umeaboy | https://www.dropbox.com/s/ehl3t891zqo4yt7/VID_20150902_232501.mp4?dl=0 | 22:41 |
OerHeks | GF GTX 850M ? | 22:41 |
Umeaboy | That's what happens before Bumblebeen is installed. | 22:41 |
Umeaboy | OerHeks: Yes. | 22:41 |
Umeaboy | Bumblebee. | 22:41 |
Umeaboy | k1l: I prefer using xorg's nouveau driver. | 22:42 |
k1l | Umeaboy: did you install bumblebee? | 22:42 |
k1l | and i mean especial "bumblebee". | 22:42 |
Umeaboy | k1l: Yes. That's what killed my entire session. | 22:42 |
Umeaboy | It froze completely.- | 22:42 |
k1l | Umeaboy: bumblebee is deprecated. it was a interim as long as nividia didnt bring official support with their nvidia driver | 22:43 |
changnesia | Hey guys, I changed my graphics card driver and I can only access tty. How can I salvage the situation? | 22:43 |
Umeaboy | k1l: Shouldn't bumblebee get removed from the repos then? | 22:43 |
k1l | so i would use the nvidia drivers shipped by ubuntu | 22:43 |
Umeaboy | k1l: That's what caused the kernel-bug in the movie. | 22:44 |
k1l | Umeaboy: you said bumblebee did caus it | 22:44 |
gulag2014 | I'm trying to add space to my root partition? | 22:44 |
Umeaboy | k1l: No. Bumblebee caused my computer to freeze entirely. | 22:44 |
Umeaboy | When installing it. | 22:45 |
Umeaboy | I had to remove the quiet and splash flags from kernel boot line in GRUB to be able to get X working. | 22:45 |
k1l | Umeaboy: so with nvidia driver it works but brings a delay at boot? | 22:46 |
Umeaboy | k1l: Yeah. | 22:46 |
Umeaboy | With the open source driver version of nouveau. | 22:46 |
k1l | Umeaboy: can you show a dmesg or syslog from that boot with nvidia in a pastebin? | 22:46 |
Umeaboy | The proprietary version of it works fine. | 22:46 |
k1l | Umeaboy: what? | 22:46 |
OerHeks | ... | 22:46 |
DF3D2 | I really need help, did some updates on my ubuntu and now it won't boot, it goes to a grub screen and if I tell it where to find the linux/initrd image it boots to a initramfs screen and I have 0 keyboard control at all | 22:47 |
DF3D2 | I have no idea what is going on | 22:47 |
k1l | Umeaboy: you are mixing all sorts of drivers. so what happens with nvidia driver from ubuntu repo? | 22:47 |
Umeaboy | k1l: Well, the installer chooses xorg-driver-video-nouveau as driver. | 22:47 |
k1l | Umeaboy: no | 22:47 |
k1l | Umeaboy: simple question. simple answer | 22:47 |
k1l | Umeaboy: what happens when you use the nvidia driver from the ubuntu repo? | 22:48 |
Umeaboy | If I check in System Settings and the Driver tab it IS using it. | 22:48 |
Umeaboy | If I choose to use the proprietary driver of nouveau I'm able to start X. | 22:48 |
=== hugegree_ is now known as hugegreenbug | ||
Umeaboy | And then get to the login screen. | 22:49 |
=== amar is now known as Guest83602 | ||
k1l | Umeaboy: i still dont understand what the issue is right now exactly | 22:50 |
Umeaboy | k1l: Well, if I let the installer choose driver for me (xorg nouveau driver) I get a delayed boot with thoose messages spewing out. | 22:51 |
Umeaboy | If I change to use the proprietary version of the nouveau driver all works fine. | 22:51 |
Umeaboy | At least to what I can see. | 22:52 |
k1l | please call it "nividia driver". it got nothing to do with nouveau. its kind of confusing | 22:52 |
=== regedit_ is now known as regedit | ||
k1l | Umeaboy: ok, so the prop. nvidia driver works. what is the issue then when you use that driver? | 22:53 |
changnesia | Can you help me with my driver issue? Lightdm won't start, it says unable to connect to upstart | 22:54 |
Umeaboy | k1l: http://pastebin.com/1h7bvn3W | 22:55 |
Umeaboy | Xorg.log | 22:55 |
Umeaboy | So you see it has problem with nouveau. | 22:55 |
arcetera | hey | 22:55 |
arcetera | I manually updated (through the kernel ppa) to kenel 4.2 final | 22:56 |
arcetera | I previously had 4.2rc8 | 22:56 |
arcetera | The system is still using rc8, how do I switch to final? | 22:56 |
k1l | Umeaboy: is that prop. nvidia driver installed when that log was taken? | 22:56 |
k1l | arcetera: reboot and choose the new kernel in grub? | 22:57 |
Umeaboy | arcetera: Press ESC at bootup. | 22:58 |
Umeaboy | Then choose advanced flags. | 22:58 |
arcetera | I have GRUB set to start at boot | 22:58 |
arcetera | so | 22:58 |
Umeaboy | arcetera: Yes, then use it. | 22:58 |
OerHeks | shift @ boot | 22:58 |
arcetera | Grub just shows "Ubuntu" "Advanced Options" and some other thing I can't remember | 22:59 |
arcetera | Advanced Options? | 22:59 |
Umeaboy | k1l: No. | 22:59 |
Umeaboy | arcetera: Yes. | 22:59 |
arcetera | ok rebooting | 22:59 |
Tex_Nick | OerHeks: where is the @ boot key ? | 22:59 |
k1l | Umeaboy: i dont see an issue in that log, except its not finding the prop. nvidia driver | 22:59 |
Umeaboy | Will faillog help you somehow, k1l? | 23:00 |
OerHeks | Tex_Nick, next to 'any' | 23:00 |
Tex_Nick | lol | 23:01 |
Johnny_Linux | he he | 23:01 |
k1l | Umeaboy: i would just use the prop. nvidia driver | 23:01 |
Umeaboy | k1l: So, uninstalling bumblebee and rebooting then. | 23:01 |
Umeaboy | I have to. The choices in the tab are gone. | 23:02 |
OerHeks | i agree with k1l, use the nvidia driver, or disable intel in your bios and use nvidia solely. | 23:02 |
k1l | Umeaboy: where did bumblebee now come from? | 23:02 |
Umeaboy | k1l: I installed it to see if that fixed the delay issue. | 23:02 |
OerHeks | bumblebee is EOL, nvidia-prime is current ( but not for the nouveaudriver) | 23:03 |
k1l | Umeaboy: read that: http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FAQ/#index15h3 | 23:03 |
k1l | Umeaboy: dont use bumblebee. use nouveau (with most probaply disabling the intel video card in bios) or use the prop. nvidia which works like intended. | 23:04 |
arcetera | o | 23:04 |
arcetera | *ok | 23:04 |
Umeaboy | OerHeks: I think I have to reinstall AND then switch to the proprietary driver (I dislike proprietary stuff). | 23:04 |
arcetera | I am now in Kubuntu with kernel 4.2 final booted | 23:04 |
arcetera | How do I set kernel 4.2 final as default rather than 4.2rc8 | 23:04 |
Johnny_Linux | kaboom | 23:04 |
Umeaboy | arcetera: Think you should comment the kernels not to use in /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 23:05 |
OerHeks | arcetera, update your grub maybe? | 23:05 |
Umeaboy | Or as OerHeks says. | 23:05 |
arcetera | Umeaboy "DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE" | 23:05 |
arcetera | also I ran update-grub | 23:05 |
Umeaboy | os-prober && update-grub | 23:06 |
k1l | Umeaboy: that will be overridden when the scripts are run again. so that is not the right way | 23:06 |
changnesia | Guys, can I use recovery mode somehow to change my graphics driver to ubuntu's? | 23:06 |
Umeaboy | k1l: OK. | 23:06 |
Umeaboy | Gotta go. | 23:06 |
k1l | changnesia: what driver, what video card | 23:06 |
k1l | changnesia: what ubuntu | 23:07 |
arcetera | hmm | 23:07 |
changnesia | I changed the driver to proprietary and it doesn't want to boot up | 23:08 |
changnesia | It's an amd card | 23:08 |
changnesia | 15.04 | 23:08 |
arcetera | It still listed rc8 as first when running os-prober && update-grub as root | 23:09 |
k1l | !nomodeset | changnesia | 23:09 |
ubottu | changnesia: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 23:09 |
arcetera | also I had to enable the root user for that wow | 23:09 |
k1l | changnesia: try this. some cards need that kernel setting, you can try the "one time" solution to test | 23:09 |
OerHeks | arcetera, good luck testing :-P | 23:09 |
k1l | arcetera: enabling root user is quite the wrong path | 23:10 |
changnesia | k1l: thanks will try | 23:10 |
k1l | arcetera: fiddeling with unsupported kernels is neither our job in here. | 23:10 |
arcetera | selected "Ubuntu" | 23:14 |
arcetera | brought me back to 4.2rc8 | 23:14 |
arcetera | YAY KERNELS | 23:14 |
Johnny_Linux | delete it | 23:14 |
TJ- | arcetera: I have a patch for GRUB that provides a custom sort order, which I implemented specifically to put -RC kernels at the end of the boot list | 23:14 |
arcetera | TJ-: can you send that to me | 23:15 |
changnesia | k1l: can I change the drivers from terminal? I can log into i3 but I tried unity before and it didn't let me | 23:17 |
arcetera | I moved from Ubuntu to Arch a few weeks ago and surprisingly I am not looking back | 23:17 |
TJ- | arcetera: See https://iam.tj/projects/misc/grub2-custom-sort-order.tar.gz | 23:18 |
arcetera | *Arch to Ubuntu | 23:18 |
arcetera | blah | 23:18 |
arcetera | low-maintainance systems praise | 23:18 |
k1l | changnesia: yes. but i would try the nomodeset kernel option first. if that works you get a working prop. driver which will be better afterwards | 23:19 |
arcetera | overwrite 10_linux TJ- | 23:19 |
k1l | arcetera: so thats not a ubuntu at all there? | 23:19 |
arcetera | it is | 23:19 |
arcetera | blah | 23:19 |
arcetera | I typo'd | 23:19 |
arcetera | Arch -> Ubuntu | 23:19 |
arcetera | not Ubuntu -> Arch | 23:19 |
arcetera | ff | 23:19 |
TJ- | arcetera: Yes, it adds some code to pick up the function grub_custom_linux_menu_sort from 10_custom_linux_menu_sort | 23:20 |
TJ- | arcetera: If you want a diff instead so you can apply a patch, let me know | 23:21 |
changnesia | k1l: I'm kind confused, I don't know what to edit | 23:23 |
changnesia | Is that in grub or tty? | 23:23 |
k1l | changnesia: on the grub booting screen press e to edit the line that grub will start then | 23:24 |
k1l | ah, the pictures are gone in that howto. but the text is still valid | 23:25 |
=== ubuntu is now known as Guest77217 | ||
arcetera | Thank you TJ- | 23:25 |
arcetera | also btw that was Ubuntu | 23:26 |
arcetera | I typo'd | 23:26 |
changnesia | k1l: I actually don't have any acpi_osi line there. Do i simply add it? | 23:27 |
k1l | changnesia: there should be a "splash" or "plymouth" at the end of the line. there you add that nomodeset | 23:28 |
changnesia | So i add it after thesplash? I have $vt_handoff there, doileave it or delete it? | 23:29 |
k1l | keep it there | 23:30 |
changnesia | Or i replace the ro that's in front of it now? | 23:30 |
k1l | if that doesnt work with that setup. try to rmeove the vt_handoff and boot that. and if that doesnt work too, try to remove vt_handoff and use nomodeset instead. | 23:32 |
changnesia | How do I save it? Ideleted it, but it didn't work soichecked again and the handoff is still there. Iused ctrl x to exit | 23:36 |
changnesia | There are no instructions about how to save it on the screen | 23:36 |
changnesia | Is this really my problem? Ican get to tty, but my lightdm doesn't want to start | 23:37 |
k1l | changnesia: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 start with the How to temporarily set kernel boot options on an installed OS (not wubi) | 23:37 |
k1l | ctrl+x after editing the right way (its explained very detailed in that howto). | 23:38 |
k1l | changnesia: i dont have your pc, i dont have a amd card. i dont know what the issue is on your pc. so i suggest a common issue and you to test it. its very detailed instructions. | 23:38 |
TJ- | changnesia: If you use the 'text' mode boot (adding 'text' to the kernel command-line) you'll start at the console. From there you can manually test starting the lightdm service, and look at the logs to find out why it fails, with full control (rather than switching VTs at start-up when lightdm has laready failed) | 23:39 |
k1l | so again: follow the howto and add nomodeset. if that doesnt work try to remove vt_handoff and boot that. if that doesnt work too try to remove vt_handoff and use nomodeset instead. | 23:40 |
k1l | if one of those options work we can make that permanent and have a easy solution and a working pc. | 23:40 |
changnesia | Ok, thanks. Nomodeset lets me enter to the greeter and log into i3, but still not unity. Can't I change it back to ubuntu drivers from the terminal for now and get back to it later? Idon't have too much time to pros around right now | 23:43 |
changnesia | *prod | 23:43 |
derek01 | Im ready to shoot my computer in the face lol | 23:44 |
k1l | changnesia: sudo apt-get purge fglrx | 23:44 |
derek01 | Still having an issue with getting anything to drag, ie a folder on the desktop being moved a pixel and it crashes | 23:45 |
derek01 | and then I have to restart nautilus for icons to come back | 23:45 |
klunkymutt | Hey guys, I am having alot of trouble with my laptop. Everything works fine, however when I open any terminal and try to press d, i just get a beep. any thoughts? | 23:45 |
derek01 | klunkymutt: is d the other button for the arrow? maybe youre attempting to move the cursor to the right and it cant move so it beeps? | 23:46 |
klunkymutt | arrow? no, I have a standard keyboard. | 23:46 |
derek01 | klunkymutt: just my first thought, I know older laptops used the WASD keys as a secondary "numpad" | 23:46 |
felixdd | Any suggestions how to work around this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libtool/+bug/1313958?comments=all | 23:49 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 1313958 in libtool (Ubuntu) "Can't install i386 version of libltdl-dev package, Makefile.in file can't be overwrited" [High,Confirmed] | 23:49 |
klunkymutt_ | sorry guys, had to re run my irc | 23:50 |
klunkymutt_ | so basically i cant use the d button in any terminal application | 23:50 |
klunkymutt_ | i tried terminal, roxterm, and terminator | 23:50 |
klunkymutt_ | i just get a beep when i press d | 23:51 |
padgaland | dang so you cant even sudo, have you ried hooking up a usb keyboard? | 23:51 |
klunkymutt_ | no, i dont have one handy right now | 23:51 |
derek01 | what about using an on screen keyboard, does ubuntu have that available? | 23:51 |
klunkymutt_ | but i tried unpluigging the ribbon cable and replugging it | 23:51 |
CarlFK | klunkymutt_: all other a-z work? | 23:51 |
derek01 | yea ubuntu has an on screen keyboard, what about that | 23:52 |
k1l | klunkymutt_: any shortcuts on that letter? | 23:52 |
klunkymutt_ | to answer everyone's question, no. no shortcuts for d | 23:52 |
padgaland | copy and paste the d? | 23:52 |
derek01 | klunkymutt_: What version of ubuntu are you running | 23:52 |
klunkymutt_ | im running 15.04 with gnome | 23:53 |
klunkymutt_ | tried copy+paste, no dice | 23:53 |
derek01 | klunkymutt_: im on the same version, go to applications, then universal access, then Onboard | 23:53 |
derek01 | does the d key on that work? | 23:53 |
CarlFK | how do I find what package contains pyversions ? | 23:54 |
klunkymutt_ | tried onboard, still wont let me press d | 23:54 |
klunkymutt_ | just beeps | 23:54 |
derek01 | klunkymutt_: so its for sure software problem. And there are no alias' set up? Quite odd. Sorry cant help much more than that | 23:54 |
derek01 | I cant that is | 23:55 |
klunkymutt_ | not sure where i can find those settings | 23:55 |
derek01 | klunkymutt_: go to terminal | 23:55 |
klunkymutt_ | did it | 23:55 |
derek01 | klunkymutt_: wait im sorry, You cant type d to see if its alias'd | 23:56 |
klunkymutt_ | by that i mean i am in terminal | 23:56 |
derek01 | you would need to type "type d" | 23:56 |
derek01 | you cant paste that from here even? | 23:56 |
k1l | look into the .bashrc in the home | 23:56 |
klunkymutt_ | no i cant | 23:56 |
klunkymutt_ | im in bashrc | 23:57 |
klunkymutt_ | now what | 23:57 |
k1l | see if there is an alias | 23:57 |
k1l | did you reboot inbetween? | 23:57 |
klunkymutt_ | yeah | 23:57 |
klunkymutt_ | no alias | 23:58 |
k1l | you could check with "alias" in terminal too | 23:58 |
EriC^^ | if you get a beep on just pressing it i dont think it would be an alias | 23:58 |
klunkymutt_ | yeah no alias | 23:58 |
derek01 | klunkymutt_: "bind -p | less" will show you if its bound to a key also. Can you press "shift - d" to key a capital letter? | 23:58 |
EriC^^ | do you get a beep after pressing enter or just on pressing? | 23:59 |
klunkymutt_ | just when i press it | 23:59 |
klunkymutt_ | shift + d works | 23:59 |
EriC^^ | try the bind derek01 is suggesting | 23:59 |
klunkymutt_ | i cant press d | 23:59 |
klunkymutt_ | binD | 23:59 |
CarlFK | klunkymutt_: what about caps lock then shift d? | 23:59 |
EriC^^ | copy and paste it | 23:59 |
