| mrtAkdeniz | any idea? | 00:00 |
| wileee | mrtAkdeniz, you save the bootinfo summary? | 00:00 |
| mrtAkdeniz | i didn't, i tried it on try ubuntu | 00:01 |
| Nectar | Jordan_U: Software Updater works now. Thank you :) | 00:01 |

| oaulakh | how to activate nvidia graphic card driver proper bcz my system still showing 33Mhz graphic clock memory http://paste.ubuntu.com/12277921/ | 00:01 |
| wileee | mrtAkdeniz, nah, always save that url. | 00:01 |
| Jordan_U | mrtAkdeniz: Don't bother with boot-repair, just run boot info script directly. | 00:01 |
| mrtAkdeniz | Jordan_U, where is this script? | 00:01 |
| Jordan_U | mrtAkdeniz: sudo apt-get install boot-info-script | 00:02 |
| mrtAkdeniz | i did, what know Jordan_U ? | 00:02 |
| mrtAkdeniz | boot-info-script didn't work and no menu entry | 00:03 |
| Jordan_U | mrtAkdeniz: Then run "sudo bootinfoscript". | 00:03 |
| Jordan_U | mrtAkdeniz: And pastebin the RESULTS.txt that it produces. | 00:03 |
| mrtAkdeniz | is it ok to use somewhere else? my sh*tty country blocked pastebin.. | 00:04 |

| pitwalker | Hi all. I have a initrd problem, only boot my 15.04 when BIOS SATA controller set to ATA compatibility mode, not boot on normal AHCI setting. initramfs/busybox said only the pata_acpi module loaded | 00:06 |

| Jordan_U | mrtAkdeniz: This channel is for Ubuntu support only. Try ##linux or #grub. | 00:07 |
| mrtAkdeniz | pardon me Jordan_U ? | 00:07 |
| Jordan_U | mrtAkdeniz: This channel is for Ubuntu support only. You appear to be using Elementary OS. | 00:08 |
| mrtAkdeniz | Jordan_U, not the same? | 00:08 |
| Jordan_U | mrtAkdeniz: Definitely not. Elementary may be based on Ubuntu, but it is not Ubuntu proper, and we don's support Ubuntu derivatives here. | 00:09 |
| mrtAkdeniz | oh i got it Jordan_U , it is based on ubuntu so i tought this won't be a problem | 00:10 |
| mrtAkdeniz | but i got your point, it may be a eOs caused problem | 00:10 |
| Sohail-Ahmed | Is it possible that a calling to program XYZ by /usr/bin/XYZ **.py should be treated as /usr/local/bin/XYZ **.py. I heard some thing about symbolic links in ubuntu, but am confused | 00:13 |
| Gaming4JC | Sohail-Ahmed, you can check for a symbolic link by using "file" /blah/that/might/be/link | 00:14 |
| Gaming4JC | sometimes helps. | 00:14 |
| Sohail-Ahmed | Gaming4JC: But what does symbolic links do?? | 00:15 |
| Sohail-Ahmed | Gaming4JC: same as what I am trying to do?? | 00:15 |
| Gaming4JC | Sohail-Ahmed, it is a shortcut - so you can use it as a reference to point to another file. | 00:15 |
| Gaming4JC | Sohail-Ahmed, yes it can go from /usr/local/ to /usr/bin | 00:16 |
| Gaming4JC | and anywhere else on the system | 00:16 |
| Sohail-Ahmed | Gaming4JC: Thanks!!!! | 00:16 |

| Gaming4JC | Sohail-Ahmed, hmm symlinks are just shortcuts, they don't execute. However they do what you are asking | 00:21 |
| Gaming4JC | if you create a shortcut/symlink for | 00:22 |
| Gaming4JC | for /usr/bin/swig --> /usr/local/bin/swig | 00:22 |

| fsir4 | is it possible to backup a linux os on a vmware and restore it on a NON-Vmware (regular machine)? | 00:38 |
| LightweighOS2 | I've downloaded most every desktop environment to test them, and afterwards I deleted the ones I didn't like as much... Except now there's a problem. When I boot up, it says kubuntu. My login manager is the one lxde uses, and when I'm logging it it show's the xfce symbol, and then when I'm on my account it loads unity. It's a weird mix of all the desktop environments. | 00:40 |
| Jordan_U | fsir4: What version of Ubuntu are you using in the guest? | 00:41 |
| fsir4 | 14.04.3. | 00:41 |
| wileee | LightweighOS2, what is the final de you're using? | 00:42 |
| LightweighOS2 | Right now I have Ubuntu selected, however it's still a weird mix of ones that I've uninstalled, or at least seemingly uninstalled. | 00:42 |
| Jordan_U | fsir4: Yes it's possible, but not particularly easy. Do you have a hard drive with nothing currently on it that you plan to use for this purpose? Have you installed VMware's guest additions? Is the physical machine UEFI or BIOS based? | 00:42 |
| fsir4 | Nah I have one HD, the purpose for using VMWARE for me was to switch from windows to ubuntu within a click | 00:43 |
| fsir4 | I mean, I could use a KVM switch | 00:43 |
| fsir4 | with some mini pc wunning ubuntu, but not sure if it would be fast | 00:43 |
| wileee | LightweighOS2, not knowing what is left there, heh, you can reload the splash needed. https://askubuntu.com/questions/12394/getting-back-ubuntus-default-boot-splash | 00:44 |
| Demon_Jester | hey can someone help me out? I am trying to achieve reverse ssh proxy, I did it long ago, and I am being unsuccessful right now. | 00:44 |
| fsir4 | Jordan_U: actually I have an empty external HD | 00:44 |
| pitwalker | fsir4: i have only infos about VirtualBox, if you use the VHD format virtual disk you can "dd" back to physical disk, when you import you must create the tailer section manually | 00:44 |
| LightweighOS2 | wileee: Even though I uninstalled them, there's still parts of the uninstalled desktop environments on my machine. How do I uninstall everything associated with it? | 00:45 |
| fsir4 | Would it possible to install ubunto on the external hd and run it in vmware? | 00:45 |
| Jordan_U | fsir4: Yes. | 00:45 |
| wileee | LightweighOS2, Try running sudo apt-get autoremove ; sudo apt-get auto-clean | 00:45 |
| usafbeach | fsir4: VMs are just a bunch of files. They can be run from anywhere | 00:45 |
| wileee | LightweighOS2, sorry sudo apt-get autoclean | 00:46 |
| fsir4 | yes, only problem is that they will be on the windows parittion | 00:46 |
| fsir4 | rather dangerous | 00:46 |
| usafbeach | Why dangerous? | 00:47 |
| LightweighOS2 | wileee: Thanks, I'll try that. | 00:47 |
| wileee | LightweighOS2, generall a purge of the desktop and a autoremove gets most stuff, not the best way in the end but do-able, I would save the installlist myself and use them to remove. | 00:48 |
| === it is now known as Guest83707 | ||
| LightweighOS2 | wileee: If you save the install list can you copy and past it into the terminal and get rid of everything all at once? | 00:49 |
| wileee | LightweighOS2, yes, it shows everything installed. | 00:50 |
| LightweighOS2 | wileee: nice, how do you get the install list? | 00:50 |
| wileee | LightweighOS2, used to be this site had them, older ones still there, but from the terminal install. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/ the bot has info as well | 00:51 |

| AbuDhar | you gotta hate Windows for not letting me download the iso file without actually being on a windows machine | 01:10 |
| LightweighOS2 | I'm moving my home directory to null now, this should work. | 01:11 |
| AbuDhar | LightweighOS2, do you have a Windows 8 iso file? | 01:12 |
| LightweighOS2 | AbuDhar: I don't, I'm trying to destroy my Ubuntu operating system. | 01:12 |
| musca | AbuDhar: not here, please. I think you missed the right channel ... | 01:12 |
| LightweighOS2 | What command will make my Ubuntu operating system unusable? | 01:13 |
| wileee | LightweighOS2, you don;t have top just install what you want in it's place. | 01:13 |
| LightweighOS2 | I just booted up after I did what you recommended and I still have a mix of 3 or 4 different desktop environments that I uninstalled. | 01:14 |
| wileee | LightweighOS2, I gave you a link with multiple options, and a clue the bot knows more, no idea what you have done in any of this. | 01:15 |
| AbuDhar | rm -R / :D | 01:16 |

| reeed | LonelyCoder_: if your system is running, it's running. | 02:35 |
| LonelyCoder_ | reeed: So I'm guessing it's just listening on ports? | 02:36 |
| reeed | yes when it's running, it's listening for incoming connections on ports. | 02:36 |
| Tryptych | ...telnet is running/listening by default on ubuntu? | 02:36 |
| reeed | i dunno about that | 02:36 |
| LonelyCoder_ | openssh* and no | 02:37 |
| eric__ | telnet is typically disabled on modern installations, since the password is sent in clear text over the network. | 02:37 |

| Devslish | Do you | 04:45 |
| cfhowlett | Devslish, relax. he already told you he couldn't help | 04:45 |
| lonewolf | services are the same as .exe's in windows | 04:46 |
| lonewolf | so get a clue | 04:46 |
| lonewolf | bam | 04:46 |
| lonewolf | kick it up a notch. | 04:46 |
| drkjstr | Guest45913: So, you downloaded the v1.9 tar.gz package, decompressed it, and then cd'd into the directory to run the install, right? | 04:46 |
| lonewolf | when you download | 04:46 |
| lonewolf | you select | 04:46 |

| Guest45913 | drkjstr: But I'm getting it wrong. | 04:48 |
| lonewolf | or | 04:49 |

| lonewolf | sudo first | 04:49 |
| Devslish | How | 04:49 |
| drkjstr | Guest45913: It would be more like this to add a PPA: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gwibber-daily/ppa | 04:49 |
| phunyguy | sorry about that, guys. Let's continue with support. :) | 04:49 |
| drkjstr | =] | 04:50 |

| tgm4883 | Guest45913: where are you getting that from? | 04:52 |
| tgm4883 | Devslish: what service? | 04:52 |
| Devslish | It's emby | 04:52 |
| Devslish | It's a media server | 04:53 |
| tgm4883 | Devslish: how do you normally start it? | 04:53 |
| Guest45913 | tgm4883: From here: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/mint_upstream/nadia/upstream/base/usb-imagewriter | 04:53 |
| Devslish | For some reason I can't add my USB drive as a media source | 04:53 |
| Devslish | I do sudo service emby server start | 04:53 |
| Devslish | When I do service emby server status it appears that it's running as user emby | 04:54 |
| drkjstr | Guest45913: This link describes it, but I don't think you can add it to Ubuntu. Because I don't think it is a public repository. It doesn't seem that usb-imagewriter has a PPA. | 04:55 |
| tgm4883 | Devslish: what user do you want to run it as? | 04:55 |
| Devslish | My account | 04:55 |

| tgm4883 | Devslish: Does emby know where to look? | 04:56 |
| treeprogram | along the left side of the screen | 04:56 |
| tgm4883 | treeprogram: yes | 04:56 |
| Devslish | No | 04:56 |
| treeprogram | tgm4883: thanks | 04:56 |
| burn | Hey! Is there anyone with Java experience | 04:56 |
| burn | Need a great help | 04:56 |
| treeprogram | so I got a laptop with 4K resolution, and I adjusted the size of the icons so that they won | 04:56 |
| treeprogram | 't appear tiny on the GUI | 04:56 |
| Devslish | I'm trying to select it from the Web interface | 04:56 |
| drkjstr | Guest45913: What the end goal you are trying to accomplish by using usb-imagewriter? | 04:56 |
| treeprogram | the problem now is that the Unity Launcher covers the icons that sit on the left side of the desktop | 04:56 |
| Devslish | Every time I do it logs me out | 04:57 |
| treeprogram | anyway I can fix this, like for example by bounding where the desktop icons sit by default? | 04:57 |
| Guest45913 | drkjstr: I'm trying to make a bootable usb for opensuse, however unetbootin didn't work and the people over at #suse told me to use usb-imagewriter. | 04:57 |
| ObrienDave | treeprogram, try using "show hidden icons" | 04:58 |
| ObrienDave | treeprogram, then arrange by name | 04:58 |
| treeprogram | ObrienDave: where is the "show hidden icons" option? | 04:58 |
| Guest45913 | drkjstr: Then I tried ubuntu's startupdisk creator, and that didn't work either. | 04:58 |
| ObrienDave | treeprogram, i run Xubuntu, i don;t know where it is in unity | 04:58 |

| Guest45913 | drkjstr: I downloaded it using torrenting, maybe that could be why. | 05:06 |
| drkjstr | Guest45913: That shouldn't be the issue. | 05:07 |
| Guest45913 | drkjstr: I thought so. It must be something else, but I can't figure it out. | 05:07 |

| phunyguy | hi | 05:07 |
| phunyguy | burn: hello. what can I help you with | 05:08 |
| phunyguy | burn: do you have a support question related to Ubuntu? Because netbeans/installer/.exe/etc isn't really sounding like you are in the correct place. | 05:10 |
| Guest45913 | Oh well, I like ubuntu better. I'm having issues with 15.04 so I'm going to try the long support release 14.043 | 05:10 |
| drkjstr | Guest45913: Try using the dd commands they suggest in this post: http://askubuntu.com/questions/59551/how-to-burn-a-windows-iso-to-a-usb-device. But be very careful not to select the wrong device! | 05:10 |

| phunyguy | burn: is this specific to ubuntu? | 05:12 |
| burn | mine is not in another pc | 05:13 |
| fishcooker | fishco | 05:13 |
| burn | well you do create jar files in ubuntu, right | 05:13 |
| phunyguy | burn: thatdoesn't answer my question. Is this SPECIFIC to ubuntu. | 05:13 |

| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Are you trying to make a live cd or usb? | 05:15 |
| LambdaComplex | USB, I see. Have you tried dd? | 05:15 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: I'm trying to make a usb. | 05:15 |
| drkjstr | Guest45913: Does it shutdown correctly? Those lines you are seeing is the system trying to stop certain processes an such. | 05:16 |
| kims_ | hy guys, what are you talking about? | 05:16 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: I have looked at what I need to do to complete it, and I can see very quickly that I won't be able to figure it out as I'm bad at using the terminal, and lack any understanding of it. | 05:16 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Oh, and also use md5sum to verify your .iso is good | 05:16 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Using dd is literally only one line | 05:17 |
| LambdaComplex | `dd if="/path/to/file.iso" of="/dev/sdwhatever" | 05:17 |
| Guest45913 | LamdbaComplex: If you told me how it worked, I could do it. | 05:17 |
| allstarsnorks2 | Hi guys. How do I change the defauly plymouth theme for my system (14.04)? | 05:18 |
| drkjstr | It was tutorialed in the last link I sent you. | 05:18 |
| LambdaComplex | Quotes are optional for that btw | 05:18 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: funny thing is that I don't understand that one line. I don't know what the /dev/sdwhatever part does. | 05:18 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex I understand that I need to type the path to the file, I've done that before. | 05:19 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: The simple version of what dd does is copies something and writes it, bit by bit, to something else. if is the input file and of is the output file. In this case, our input file is a disk image (in .iso format) and our output file is a block device (in /dev/sdx form). | 05:19 |
| LambdaComplex | So, the usb is going to be a block device. You should be able to find which one with the `lsblk` command | 05:20 |
| skype_jimxlhs | hi | 05:21 |

| kims_ | m??? | 05:22 |
| skype_jimxlhs | from where ? | 05:22 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: That's where it's mounted. We need the actual block device. | 05:22 |
| kims_ | sorry, i can't say that skype.. | 05:23 |
| LambdaComplex | It'll be in the form /dev/sdx | 05:23 |
| drkjstr | Guest45913: Like LambdaComplex stated, in a terminal, type: lsblk | 05:23 |
| Guest45913 | There's Name, Maj:min, Rm, Ro, Type, and Mountpoint | 05:23 |
| LambdaComplex | It'll be under Name | 05:24 |

| cfhowlett | skype_jimxlhs, take your spam and go away | 05:25 |

| cfhowlett | !spam | skype_jimxlhs | 05:26 |
| ubottu | skype_jimxlhs: Please don't spam | 05:26 |
| drkjstr | LambdaComplex: Have you tried using the pastbinit package? It works similarly. | 05:26 |
| kims_ | don't know, i just dont really like unity | 05:26 |
| allstarsnorks2 | How do I change my Plymouth theme in Xubuntu 14.04? | 05:26 |
| cfhowlett | kims_, its okay but I wouldn't. unity is tightly integrated. just don't use it. | 05:26 |
| LambdaComplex | drkjstr: Nope. I just like sprunge because the instructions are right on the front page :P | 05:27 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: bash: http://sprunge.us/KcWd: No such file or directory | 05:27 |
| LambdaComplex | Not quite sure what happened but removing that colon on the end fixes it | 05:27 |
| drkjstr | Cool. I didn't know about it until I started coming in here. It would be used like: lsblk | pastebinit | 05:28 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: So, ~700GB hard drive and 16 GB usb drive? | 05:28 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: haha, no it worked. Open the link. | 05:28 |
| LambdaComplex | drkjstr: As in, pastebin.com? | 05:28 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Yes, it's 16 GB | 05:28 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Alright, so you'll do `dd if=whatever.iso of=/dev/sdb` | 05:29 |
| LambdaComplex | Of course you really should check the md5sum | 05:29 |
| LambdaComplex | Which is as simple as `md5sum file` | 05:29 |
| LambdaComplex | "file" of course being your iso in this case | 05:30 |
| drkjstr | LambdaComplex: It uses paste.ubuntu.com | 05:30 |
| LambdaComplex | What the md5sum command does is runs whatever you give it through some fancy math formulas and then outputs a really crazy string of numbers and letters. But that crazy string lets you verify that the file is what it's supposed to be | 05:31 |
| LambdaComplex | Because if there were an error in the file, it'd give you the wrong string | 05:31 |

| ObrienDave | mibbit, sudo apt-get install synaptic | 05:32 |
| mibbit | ObrienDave: same problem, closes after a short launch | 05:32 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Do I need to cd into the directory the .iso file is in, or write the path to the file? | 05:33 |
| kims_ | mibbit : or maybe you can run it in terminal using sudo | 05:33 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Eh, I'd just cd into the directory to make things easier | 05:33 |
| mibbit | ObrienDave: Yes, I have done that | 05:33 |
| misternumberone | sorry for lack of wrap | 05:33 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Either one works though | 05:33 |
| mibbit | kims_: sudo ubuntu software center? | 05:33 |

| kims_ | sudo software-center | 05:35 |
| * LambdaComplex wonders if he can just use an alias for sprunge | 05:35 | |

| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Including or excluding that grave before dd? | 05:36 |
| Guest45913 | including th ' | 05:36 |
| LambdaComplex | Hm, I'm guessing bash is a little confused right now :P | 05:36 |
| Guest45913 | Lambdacomplex: Including the grave symbol looking like ' | 05:36 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: And now it just says ">", right? | 05:37 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Haha, right ;) | 05:37 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: ctrl+c will get you out of that | 05:37 |
| LambdaComplex | And then run md5sum before you dd! | 05:37 |
| LambdaComplex | No sense in writing a broken file :P | 05:37 |
| LambdaComplex | And get rid of the grave before you dd | 05:38 |
| LambdaComplex | md5sum openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso | 05:38 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: md5sum: openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso: Is a directory | 05:39 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: I wonder what that means. | 05:39 |
| LambdaComplex | um | 05:39 |
| LambdaComplex | what | 05:39 |
| drkjstr | The MD% sum you need is: 350b8cb014a4e342cc9a7cc9df891b99 openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso | 05:40 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: file openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso | 05:40 |
| LambdaComplex | Run that. Because I'm confused now O.o | 05:40 |
| LambdaComplex | The file command just tells you the filetype | 05:40 |
| LambdaComplex | Which...should not be directory | 05:40 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: file openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso | 05:41 |
| Guest45913 | openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso: directory | 05:41 |
| LambdaComplex | Well, allons-y then! cd into it and see what happens :P | 05:41 |
| LambdaComplex | And then ls -A | 05:41 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: No command 'md5sum:' found | 05:41 |
| === silas is now known as Guest80602 | ||
| LambdaComplex | Does Ubuntu not have md5sum by default? | 05:42 |
| drkjstr | LambdaComplex: I just did it, and it does | 05:42 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Oh, so if it's a directory then you can cd into it! | 05:42 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Of course! cd = change directory | 05:42 |
| Guest45913 | Lambdacomplex: It said: openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso | 05:43 |
| Guest45913 | when I typed in ls -A | 05:43 |
| LambdaComplex | Ah, okay. So you had a folder named after the iso file | 05:43 |
| LambdaComplex | Run file on that one | 05:43 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: My usb is flashing, so it's reading/writing data. | 05:44 |
| LambdaComplex | Did you run dd? O.o | 05:45 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaCompled: I did, haha. Is there a way to ask terminal the arguments for dd? | 05:45 |
| LambdaComplex | Not quite sure I understand what you're asking | 05:45 |
| LambdaComplex | Like, a list of possible arguments? | 05:45 |
| Guest45913 | Yes like with the ls -A the -A part is the argument | 05:46 |
| LambdaComplex | man dd | 05:46 |
| LambdaComplex | Trust me, manpages are your new best friends | 05:46 |
| drkjstr | or dd --help | 05:46 |
| === max12345 is now known as Guest84853 | ||
| LambdaComplex | Or that | 05:46 |
| Guest45913 | Is there a website that lists every terminal command? | 05:46 |
| LambdaComplex | Well....you could do "ls /bin" | 05:46 |
| === Guest84853 is now known as max12345 | ||
| LambdaComplex | That'd list every binary you have on your system | 05:47 |
| LambdaComplex | But "every terminal command" would be a very, very, very, VERY long list | 05:47 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: DD is on there! | 05:47 |
| Guest45913 | The ls /bin list I mean. | 05:48 |
| LambdaComplex | No, it isn't | 05:48 |
| LambdaComplex | dd is though | 05:48 |
| Guest45913 | yeah, dd | 05:48 |
| LambdaComplex | *nix is case-sensitive | 05:48 |
| LambdaComplex | So, you ran dd if=openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso of=/dev/sdb | 05:48 |
| LambdaComplex | Correct? | 05:48 |
| Guest45913 | I did. | 05:48 |
| LambdaComplex | Well, I still want you to run md5sum after that finishes :P | 05:48 |
| Guest45913 | I will, might have to find a way to get the md5sum command. | 05:49 |
| LambdaComplex | Also, drkjstr did mention --help, but not everything has an output for --help. And for the ones that do, the manpage will be much more in-depth | 05:49 |
| LambdaComplex | And...you really should have md5sum | 05:49 |
| Guest45913 | I can type clear in the terminal, however it doesn't show up in ls /bin | 05:50 |
| drkjstr | ^-- --help is usually just an brief help and list of options. | 05:50 |
| LambdaComplex | drkjstr: Unfortunately SOME things have --help but not a manpage >.> | 05:50 |
| LambdaComplex | adb comes to mind for that | 05:51 |
| LambdaComplex | Luckily its --help is rather verbose | 05:51 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: I'm far behind on using terminal, but I'll always remimber ls /bin | 05:52 |
| Guest45913 | And man and --help | 05:52 |
| drkjstr | clear is located in /usr/bin | 05:52 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: If you'd like, I can name some basic terminal commands that you'll want to know | 05:52 |
| drkjstr | do: which clear | 05:52 |
| LambdaComplex | drkjstr: I figured they'd be symlinked :P | 05:52 |
| LambdaComplex | Also, reset is more useful than clear imo | 05:53 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: How did you get so good at terminal? | 05:54 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: By using it :P | 05:54 |
| ObrienDave | Guest45913, http://ss64.com/ | 05:54 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Sure, but if I didn't know about ls /bin I would have never figured out the different commands I could use. | 05:54 |
| ObrienDave | Guest45913, http://ss64.com/bash | 05:54 |
| LambdaComplex | Lemme see... cd and ls are both important. ls -l puts things in a list (and also displays permissions, among other things). ls -A includes "hidden" files (which start with a .) | 05:55 |
| LambdaComplex | nano is a terminal text editor that's good for quickly editing files | 05:55 |
| drkjstr | I'm out. Have a good one. | 05:55 |
| LambdaComplex | pwd gives you your current directory (but generally you'll have that in your shell prompt) | 05:55 |
| LambdaComplex | cat gives you the contents of a file | 05:56 |
| LambdaComplex | less is similar to cat but a bit nicer | 05:56 |
| LambdaComplex | (it lets you scroll) | 05:57 |
| LambdaComplex | Ooh, grep is useful | 05:57 |
| blunderbrus | Hey, how's everybody doing? | 05:57 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: ls -l /bin | grep nano | 05:57 |
| LambdaComplex | Try that for fun | 05:57 |
| Guest45913 | -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 192016 Jul 16 2014 nano | 05:58 |
| Guest45913 | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Sep 4 21:50 rnano -> nano | 05:58 |
| LambdaComplex | So, what grep just did was take all the output of "ls -l /bin" and just give you the lines containing the phrase "nano" | 05:58 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: That's nice. When I try to open text files with millions of characters it always crashes. | 05:59 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Are they actually text files? O.o | 05:59 |
| LambdaComplex | Or are they executable binaries? | 06:00 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Yes, like log files on ubuntu. | 06:00 |
| LambdaComplex | Sounds like you might want the tail command | 06:00 |
| LambdaComplex | By default that'll just give you the last 10 lines of a file | 06:00 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: I might want to search for a keyword, though. So I like your grep nano command. | 06:02 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: My usb finished reading/writing :) | 06:02 |
| LambdaComplex | No, not grep and nano. Nano is an editor, You'd want cat and grep | 06:02 |
| LambdaComplex | Okay, now run md5sum because I swear it should be installed :P | 06:02 |
| Guest45913 | I just ran it using the command: md5sum openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso | 06:03 |
| Guest45913 | 350b8cb014a4e342cc9a7cc9df891b99 | 06:04 |
| LambdaComplex | 350b8cb014a4e342cc9a7cc9df891b99 openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_64.iso | 06:04 |
| LambdaComplex | Okay, congratulations. You don't have to redownload :D | 06:04 |
| Guest45913 | Thankfully :O It was 5 gigs | 06:05 |
| LambdaComplex | Dang. | 06:05 |
| Guest45913 | For a linux distro too. Ubuntu is around 1 gig | 06:05 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Now I'm going to try and make it bootable using the documentation on: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Live_USB_stick | 06:06 |
| LambdaComplex | Anyways, I generally prefer the terminal because I know what's actually going on. Unetbootin does...who knows what? Heck, you're specifically told not to use Unetbootin for Arch because it overwrites the syslinux.cfg file | 06:06 |
| LambdaComplex | (Which means it takes a perfectly working .iso and makes it unbootable) | 06:07 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: It _should_ already be bootable | 06:07 |
| LambdaComplex | "This situation would happen very rarely" | 06:07 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: You're right! | 06:08 |
| LambdaComplex | Also, if it's installed, I'd prefer cfdisk to fdisk | 06:08 |
| LambdaComplex | Because it has a gui...er...tui? | 06:08 |
| LambdaComplex | It looks prettier :P | 06:08 |
| LambdaComplex | http://manual.aptosid.com/lib/images-en/cfdisk-en/cfdisk1-en.png | 06:09 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Yep, you can create nice text ui's on Terminal. | 06:09 |
| LambdaComplex | Like cfdisk :D | 06:09 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Beautiful! Haha | 06:09 |
| Guest45913 | I'm going to try out opensuse now :) | 06:10 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Have fun! | 06:11 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Do you know any fun commands to destroy ubuntu? | 06:11 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Well... | 06:11 |
| LambdaComplex | There is that one command | 06:11 |
| LambdaComplex | The one that everyone with Linux experience will think of when they read what you just said | 06:11 |
| Guest45913 | Might as well go out in flames and glory! | 06:11 |
| LambdaComplex | Guys, am I allowed to say the command here? :P | 06:12 |
| Guest45913 | The rm -rf / command doesn't work, I tried it. | 06:12 |
| LambdaComplex | Yeah, that one >.> | 06:12 |
| LambdaComplex | Did you use sudo? | 06:12 |
| Guest45913 | It won't let you even with sudo. | 06:12 |
| LambdaComplex | Did you try /* instead of / | 06:13 |
| LambdaComplex | ? | 06:13 |
| ObrienDave | !rm | 06:13 |
| ubottu | The Unix 'rm' command removes files and directories from the filesystem. It is an extremly powerful tool, and you should not run 'rm' commands unless you fully understand them. Do not run arbitrary 'rm' commands you see online. For a beginning guide on using terminal commands, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal and for a cautionary story about 'rm' see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL_g0tyaIeE | 06:13 |
| ObrienDave | !rmrf | 06:13 |
| Guest45913 | If I disconnect all of a sudden, you'll know it worked. | 06:13 |
| LambdaComplex | You do realize that will delete everything on your system, correct? | 06:13 |
| LambdaComplex | Including any mounted hard drives | 06:14 |
| LambdaComplex | Any mounted USB drives | 06:14 |
| Guest45913 | oh shiz | 06:14 |
| Guest45913 | it's working | 06:14 |
| ObrienDave | been nice knowing you ROFL | 06:14 |
| LambdaComplex | I hope you unplugged your usb drive :P | 06:14 |
| LambdaComplex | (shouldn't be mounted anyways though) | 06:14 |
| LambdaComplex | Haha, I did rmrf on a virtual machine once | 06:15 |
| LambdaComplex | Then I stopped it. Tried to do it again. | 06:15 |
| LambdaComplex | Except I couldn't because rm didn't exist anymore. | 06:15 |
| Guest45913 | lol! it deleted the unity taskbar's! | 06:15 |
| ObrienDave | !danger | 06:15 |
| ubottu | DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND! That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! | 06:15 |
| ObrienDave | JUST a bit late LOL | 06:15 |
| LambdaComplex | ObrienDave: Okay, fine! dd if=/dev/zero :P | 06:16 |
| Guest45913 | I'm still alive! haha It said operation not permitted for the essential stuff. | 06:16 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: This is the part where you either thank or curse Ubuntu for being "idiotproofed" for lack of a better term | 06:16 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: It's funny, it didn't close the applications I had open, but it deleted everything else other than the essential stuff like I said. | 06:18 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: That stuff is probably in RAM or something like that | 06:18 |
| ObrienDave | because what you see is in RAM | 06:18 |
| LambdaComplex | If you close the applications you have open, I'm willing to bet you won't be able to reopen them | 06:18 |
| Guest45913 | This is the ultralxde desktop environment, actually. | 06:19 |
| Guest45913 | It's as lightweight as it gets, as everything is in ram. | 06:20 |
| LambdaComplex | That's optimism if I've ever seen it | 06:20 |
| LambdaComplex | And now you're gonna go from super SUPER lightweight to something that takes a 5 GB iso | 06:21 |
| Guest45913 | I feel for all the poor linux noobs that got tricked into running that command, though. Haha. | 06:22 |
| LambdaComplex | And that's why (as the bot says) you should never run a command unless you know what it's doing | 06:22 |
| lotuspsychje | good morning to all | 06:23 |
| Guest45913 | It's been fun all, I'm going to try and boot up Ubuntu for fun and see what happens, and then I'll try out my bootable usb for Suse. | 06:24 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Feel free to message me here (or /query me) any time | 06:24 |
| Guest45913 | LambdaComplex: Okay! I'll make my username something like LightweightOS | 06:25 |
| Guest45913 | This will give new meaning to that username, though. | 06:25 |
| LambdaComplex | I really hope you're not expecting that thing to boot :P | 06:26 |
| Guest45913 | Lambdacomplex: Hey, if it's idiotproofed it might ;) | 06:27 |
| Guest45913 | I could try the recovery mode. | 06:27 |
| Guest45913 | There's a mode similar to that. | 06:27 |
| Guest45913 | Ok! I'm rebooting now :) | 06:27 |
| bin0x58 | Hi, can anyone give me advice about how to learn | 06:28 |
| LambdaComplex | bin0x58: Read everything and asks lots of questions | 06:28 |
| bin0x58 | unix that is | 06:28 |
| LambdaComplex | But learn how to ask good questions | 06:28 |
| lotuspsychje | !manual | bin0x58 | 06:28 |
| bin0x58 | ya sorry | 06:28 |
| ubottu | bin0x58: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 06:28 |
| LambdaComplex | Guest45913: Godspeed | 06:28 |
| ObrienDave | SMH | 06:28 |
| bin0x58 | What is the best book in your opinions? | 06:29 |
| ObrienDave | bin0x58, http://ss64.com/bash | 06:29 |
| LambdaComplex | I wonder if recommending the Bandit wargame to people would be a good idea | 06:30 |
| bin0x58 | Im currently reading "The Linux Command Line" by william shotts | 06:32 |
| ObrienDave | wargame? i got into WoT for a while | 06:32 |
| LambdaComplex | I think we're talking two different kinds of wargames | 06:33 |
| LambdaComplex | ObrienDave: http://overthewire.org/wargames/bandit/ | 06:33 |
| ObrienDave | hmmm, interesting :) | 06:35 |
| saptarshi | hi | 06:37 |
| LambdaComplex | ObrienDave: Definitely seems like a decent way of teaching basic skills. Like, the first level just takes using cat on a file. Then level 24 is "A daemon is listening on port 30002 and will give you the password for bandit25 if given the password for bandit24 and a secret numeric 4-digit pincode." | 06:38 |
| LambdaComplex | Basically there's nothing horribly difficult, just a lot of "basic" stuff that could be useful | 06:39 |
| ObrienDave | most of that security stuff is quite interesting but i have not been able to find a good way to learn the basics | 06:41 |
| ricard | is best HDMI DVI-D 18 + 1pin cable or a VGA cable | 06:41 |
| ObrienDave | hdmi | 06:42 |
| ricard | ObrienDave, hdmi dvi? | 06:43 |
| ObrienDave | hdmi > vga | 06:44 |
| LambdaComplex | DVI > HDMI > VGA | 06:44 |
| LambdaComplex | Though HDMI does have the benefit of transmitting audio (if it's HDMI 5.1) | 06:44 |
| ricard | the cable is hdmi dvi-d | 06:45 |
| LambdaComplex | Like, HDMI to DVI? | 06:45 |
| LambdaComplex | HDMI on one end and DVI on the other? | 06:45 |
| ricard | yes hddmi and dvi on the other | 06:47 |
| LambdaComplex | Yes, that is better than vga | 06:48 |
| ricard | thanks LambdaComplex | 06:48 |
| ricard | bay | 06:49 |
| TJ- | Do we have a hexchat package for theme management? Not been able to find anything in the archive | 06:53 |
| ObrienDave | are they going to FINALLY include HexChat and can Xchat?3 | 06:55 |
| TJ- | ObrienDave: I prefer xchat; TCL is fun :) | 06:55 |
| LambdaComplex | TJ-: http://hexchat.readthedocs.org/en/latest/building.html#building-theme-manager | 06:56 |
| LambdaComplex | Well, there's that | 06:56 |
| ObrienDave | Xchat is not maintained anymore. why keep it? | 06:56 |
| LambdaComplex | There's also an AUR package for it apparently | 06:56 |
| TJ- | LambdaComplex: That's not what I call a theme manager; it requires Mono just to use it - it was written and targeted at Windows with .net, ughh. | 06:56 |
| * ObrienDave takes aim at LambdaComplex ;P | 06:57 | |
| TJ- | ObrienDave: We have hundreds of packages not actively developed by upstream; it doesn't prevent them being useful to some users. | 06:57 |
| LambdaComplex | ObrienDave: What? :P | 06:57 |
| LambdaComplex | TJ-: I suppose if you're comfortable with git you could use stow for version control of your hexchat config files | 06:59 |
| * ObrienDave SMH and sighs ;P | 06:59 | |
| LambdaComplex | ObrienDave: Again, what? :P | 06:59 |
| TJ- | LambdaComplex: I think I'll dump hexchat and use irssi :) | 06:59 |
| LambdaComplex | TJ-: Pfft, weechat is better ;) | 07:00 |
| * LambdaComplex waits for ObrienDave to sigh | 07:00 | |
| * ObrienDave thinks you're both wacked LOL | 07:00 | |
| === ircmaxell is now known as giantwaffeldonke | ||
| TJ- | LambdaComplex: either will do I guess; My main issue with hexchat is there is no way to test/apply darker themes so the screen isn't mostly glaring white background. I want a neutral grey so my eyes aren't getting burned | 07:02 |
| cyberalex4life | TJ-, there are themes | 07:02 |
| cyberalex4life | TJ-, https://hexchat.github.io/themes.html | 07:03 |
| ObrienDave | LED screens can't burn your eyes like a CRT ;P | 07:04 |
| LambdaComplex | TJ-: http://sprunge.us/YcOM | 07:04 |
| LambdaComplex | That's what I use | 07:04 |
| TJ- | cyberalex4life: Yeah, I was looking at them, but if I've got a GUI client I'd rather expect it to provide an easy way to test/alter the theme from the GUI | 07:04 |
| cyberalex4life | these you have to unzip theme, restart hexchat and see | 07:05 |
| TJ- | ObrienDave: They do mine for the number of hours I use them. I have all the other screens with other applications using dark themes, so hexchat stands out all the more. | 07:05 |
| ObrienDave | they have brightness control ;P | 07:05 |
| TJ- | hexchat doesnt :) | 07:06 |
| LambdaComplex | TJ-: Do you have redshift? | 07:06 |
| ObrienDave | your screen does ;P | 07:06 |
| TJ- | No, I don't use gnome | 07:07 |
| LambdaComplex | I think that's a non sequitur | 07:08 |
| ObrienDave | i don;t use gnome either and my LCD has brightness control ;P | 07:08 |
| LambdaComplex | Redshift is amazing though | 07:09 |
| LambdaComplex | https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/precise/gtk-redshift/ | 07:09 |
| ObrienDave | you know, the little menu button ;P | 07:09 |
| TJ- | Oh, you mean the colour adjustment widget. It's not a monitor issue, it's an application issue | 07:09 |
| ObrienDave | SMH mountains out of mole-hills ;P | 07:09 |
| LambdaComplex | You're welcome to try that config file I linked you to | 07:10 |
| cyberalex4life | I tried red-shift, didn't like, would prefer a screen filter, such like those on android, rather | 07:11 |
| cyberalex4life | but there is none | 07:11 |
| * LambdaComplex should probably go to bed | 07:12 | |
| TJ- | The problem I have is hexchat in a section of 1 monitor glaring which makes focusing on terminals on the same monitor uncomfortable | 07:14 |
| cyberalex4life | I honestly don't like to orange icon, I am more a blueish guy | 07:19 |
| LambdaComplex | TJ-: http://i.imgur.com/Vufohe7.png | 07:20 |
| cyberalex4life | even the red from xchat I prefer more, but the icon disapears after a gnome shell restart | 07:20 |
| TJ- | Some people can be hyper-sensitive to colour schemes too, especially if they have some degree of colour-blindness, or other acuity | 07:20 |
| TJ- | LambdaComplex: Yes, that's definitely where I'm headed. | 07:21 |
| TJ- | LambdaComplex: LXDE? | 07:21 |
| cyberalex4life | TJ, yes and I have such problem, I don't like playing games at high settings because of that, and that is why I like gnome shell | 07:21 |
| LambdaComplex | TJ-: BSPWM with xfce4-panel | 07:21 |
| wise | hey | 07:22 |
| wise | hows everyone | 07:22 |
| cyberalex4life | I guess we're good | 07:22 |
| wise | you guess | 07:23 |
| TJ- | Ahhh... I don't know whether I'm just becoming reactionary, but I've got so fed up with the way Gnome/Unity/KDE have gone I'm finding myself sticking with lightweight DEs and terminal applications more and more. | 07:23 |
| cyberalex4life | that's because I'm good, I don't know about the others :P | 07:23 |
| mehdi_ | hey guys how can i create iso from my current OS and installed on some other PC? | 07:24 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: *create* the ISO, or simply write an ISO image to a device? | 07:24 |
| LambdaComplex | TJ-: My ricing is a never-ending process. I'm probably gonna start seriously learning about lemonbar scripts within the next week | 07:24 |
| cyberalex4life | mehdi_, there are some tutorials there, even videos, but you have to be carefull to dependencies | 07:25 |
| LambdaComplex | Either lemonbar or dzen2. Haven't really seen any advantages or disadvantages either way | 07:25 |
| mehdi_ | create the ISO of my current system and then boot it up and install it on another computer | 07:25 |
| mehdi_ | i dont want to go through some package installation again | 07:26 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: You, mean make an image of 1 system and deploy it to another | 07:26 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: You can use something simple like 'dd' or more intelligent like 'clonezillla' | 07:26 |
| cyberalex4life | mehdi_, http://lifehacker.com/5921054/ubuntu-builder-lets-you-build-your-own-customized-linux-distribution | 07:26 |
| mehdi_ | @ TJ- there used to be an application called remastersys | 07:26 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: In the archives? I don't recall it | 07:27 |
| cyberalex4life | mehdi_, https://www.maketecheasier.com/build-your-own-ubuntu-based-distro-with-novo-builder/ | 07:27 |
| cyberalex4life | I believe there are quite a few ways | 07:27 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: imaging one system to another with Linux is simple - unlike Windows there's no tie to the installed hardware; it is all auto-discovered at boot. If you can do it, hook up the target drive to the donor system, boot a Live image, and copy file-systems across. | 07:28 |
| TJ- | I say 'file-systems' since disk sizes and partitions may (need to) be different on the target | 07:29 |
| TJ- | I've found using LVM mirroring a great way to clone a system | 07:30 |
| mehdi_ | @ TJ- the project discontinued | 07:31 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: I guess there isn't tremendous call for it when most people have such abundant bandwidth, but I share your dislike of needing to install via package-manager simply to create clones | 07:32 |
| TJ- | I've been working on a GRUB bug, the symptom of which is in nativedisk mode it fails to activate a SATA controller because it needs to force the link speed lower, and doesn't. My favourite error message: grub_dprintf ("ahci", "Couldn't put AHCI in AHCI mode\n"); (first 'AHCI' should really be 'SATA controller') | 07:34 |
| shafox | How can I install ctypes ? | 07:34 |
| mehdi_ | @ TJ- im not as professional as you | 07:35 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: I'm trying to suggest 'easy' ways to achieve the same result ... can you connect the target drive to the source PC temporarily, or visa-versa? | 07:38 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: depending on how much space is used by the donor installation, it might fit on a USB flash device | 07:38 |
| cyberalex4life | mehdi_, maybe an external hdd, if any (formated in ext3/4) | 07:38 |
| cyberalex4life | and a live image to be able to do this stuff | 07:39 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: A neat trick is, from a Live image boot, to shrink all file-systems on the donor to their minimum size, lzma compress them to images on a USB device, and then reverse the process on the target. Oh, and resize the donor's file-systems back to normal afterwards :) | 07:40 |
| cyberalex4life | TJ-, it may be too overwhelming for a new guy | 07:41 |
| cyberalex4life | for example, manjaro is ok for me, but to start to build everything in arch, neah, too much wor | 07:43 |
| TJ- | cyberalex4life: I know. I'm just offering alternatives, if the aim is to reduce time/downloads required for cloning. | 07:43 |
| cyberalex4life | let him do the more easy stuff, in time he'll search for other ways | 07:43 |
| cyberalex4life | and it took me 3 days to port all the stuff I needed from ubuntu | 07:44 |
| TJ- | cyberalex4life: I've never understood the desire to rebuild everything instead of using pre-built binaries. In the majority of cases, building for a specific CPU won't gain much if anything in the way of improved performance, but it sure does waste a lot of time and energy | 07:44 |
| cyberalex4life | I used to finish installing ubuntu in half a day | 07:45 |
| TJ- | There's a quick way on Debian/Ubuntu systems to extract the list of packages required to duplicate the config, and it's not "dpkg --get-selections", it's "debfoster" - which identifies the top-of-tree packages only, which when installed on another system retain the 'automatically installed' status of all their dependent packages | 07:46 |
| mehdi_ | @ TJ- @ cyberalex4life it seems that i wasnt clear enough , for example take ubuntu image and and booting on a usb and install it i want, instead of ubuntu image be the OS that i want | 07:46 |
| cyberalex4life | I don't like it either, because it's too much work, 3 days is a lot, but I got bored of ubuntu, and since opensuse had some thing with nvidia and intel | 07:46 |
| cyberalex4life | mehdi_, unetbootin works from from every OS I think | 07:48 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: When you say 'ubuntu image'. do you mean a standard installer/Live ISO image, or the image of an installed Ubuntu system? | 07:49 |
| cyberalex4life | later I found out that ubuntu-mate way also works from every distro: sudo ddrescue -d -D --force ubuntu-mate-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso /dev/sdx | 07:50 |
| cyberalex4life | while Disk Creator gives problems from time to time | 07:51 |
| mehdi_ | @ TJ- standard installer/ISO image | 07:51 |
| cyberalex4life | mehdi_, what OS are you using now? | 07:51 |
| mehdi_ | @ cyberalex4life unetbootin create yhe bootable usb from ISO , i wanted to create the ISO | 07:51 |
| EriC^^ | round and round we go.. | 07:52 |
| mehdi_ | @ cyberalex4life ubuntu 14.04 | 07:52 |
| cyberalex4life | mehdi_, maybe this will help : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization | 07:52 |
| cyberalex4life | I can't find "that" video I watched once on youtube | 07:54 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: I'm lost. I think we have an English comprehension problem here, for which I apologise. When you said "how can i create iso from my current OS" and I asked "*create* the ISO, or simply write an ISO image" you said "create the ISO of my current system and then boot it up and install it" ... | 07:54 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: ... I understood you to mean you had an existing Ubuntu installation on 1 PC that you wished to clone/copy/install to another PC. | 07:55 |
| mehdi_ | @ TJ- exactly | 07:55 |
| EriC^^ | why did you say standard ubuntu iso? | 07:56 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: Ahhh! OK, so I wasn't as a confused as I thought :D | 07:56 |
| EriC^^ | that's what confused me | 07:56 |
| TJ- | mehdi_: OK, so all my previous suggestions are valid hehehe | 07:56 |
| mehdi_ | @ EriC^^ tj- asked | 07:56 |
| mehdi_ | tanx fellas | 07:56 |
| cyberalex4life | it's a bit of info to digest, but I avoid this stuff usually because of the updates that appear all the time, I think I better install the genuine, update it, than strip what I don't want and install what I want | 07:58 |
| cyberalex4life | I've been using this app: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/y-ppa-manager-0092-released-with-new.html; for repo backup, it's usually what I need, than sudo apt-get install all the way | 07:59 |
| EriC^^ | ' | 08:11 |
| TJ- | grrr, weechat documentation organisation is terrible. I feel a patch coming on! | 08:15 |
| Johnny_Linux | it should be called patch-chat | 08:19 |
| TJ- | It would make sense to provide a single index.html page in the weechat-doc package so users can actually navigate the installed pages, and to break out the per-language files into directories rather than embedded it in the filenames. | 08:22 |
| fidelus | Hi | 08:30 |
| fidelus | ALl | 08:30 |
| fidelus | Please i want to connect a projector using usb cable | 08:31 |
| fidelus | it works on windows but not in linux | 08:31 |
| ikonia | that seems not the norm | 08:31 |
| ikonia | must be a usb video card, | 08:31 |
| ikonia | I often find their support to be weak | 08:31 |
| ikonia | (well as often as I have used them) | 08:31 |
| xer0 | hello | 08:32 |
| krizoek | there is these usb graphical cards | 08:32 |
| cyberalex4life | ikonia, you connect to the projector through usb? | 08:32 |

| krizoek | someone else here also experienced 15.10 beta more stable than 14.04? | 08:38 |
| TJ- | fidelus: Does the projector have an embedded DisplayPort adapter? | 08:38 |
| TJ- | krizoek: Not at all; lots of regressions too | 08:38 |
| krizoek | maybe i use it differently, or have a system that works great with it | 08:39 |
| cyberalex4life | krizoek, I have experienced ubuntu 14.04 beta more stable ubuntu 14.04 when released | 08:39 |
| krizoek | i have had some problems with 14.04 | 08:40 |
| TJ- | krizoek: depends on the problems you experience with 14.04. 15.10 has the v4.2 kernel, maybe you need a more recent kernel on 14.04 from the HardWare Enablement stack | 08:40 |
| cyberalex4life | krizoek, but had some codec dependency issue | 08:40 |
| krizoek | i think so too TJ- | 08:40 |
| cyberalex4life | krizoek, depends how new is your hardware, support may come even in a year time from buying | 08:41 |

| cyberalex4life | Ore5ama, ethernet or wifi? | 08:44 |
| Ore5ama | wifi | 08:45 |
| cyberalex4life | Ore5ama, does it connect to router or whatever,,, | 08:46 |
| Ore5ama | it is connected, there is internet access for about 5 minutes, after which, i get a no buffer space error | 08:48 |
| Ore5ama | lspci | grep Wireless returns Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8723BE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter | 08:49 |
| TJ- | fidelus: I asked you earlier, Does the projector have an embedded DisplayPort adapter? | 08:49 |
| TJ- | Ore5ama: where do you see/get the 'no buffer space' error? | 08:50 |
| cyberalex4life | Ore5ama, do you have firewall on? | 08:50 |
| Ore5ama | when i ping to like google or bing.com, etc. i dont think i have firewall on | 08:51 |
| fidelus | yes | 08:51 |
| Ore5ama | how do i see if i have firewall on? | 08:51 |
| cyberalex4life | Ore5ama, try this: sudo ufw disable; sudo service network-manager restart | 08:52 |
| TJ- | fidelus: The Linux kernel has experimental support for DisplayPort 1.0, and DisplayPort provide a Linux driver for later versions, but be warned it replaces the system libusb | 08:52 |
| tawan | Anyone know howto replace items blocked by /etc/hosts? I'd like to put a little graphic or something there rather than the default "Browser can't reach foobar.com" | 08:52 |
| Ore5ama | i shall do this, once i get a no buffer space available again | 08:52 |
| Ore5ama | or shall i do this now? | 08:53 |
| cyberalex4life | Ore5ama, sudo ufw disable disables firewall | 08:53 |
| fidelus | Ok, then how to configure it ? | 08:53 |
| Ore5ama | ok | 08:54 |
| Ore5ama | did it | 08:54 |
| TJ- | Ore5ama: 'no buffer space' issue is a stack-size issue. You can increase it using 'ulimit -s' if it is set and limited | 08:54 |
| Ore5ama | ty, i'll tryi it | 08:55 |
| oaulakh | i dunno but this time ubuntu driving me crazy like i have just done update and it goes slow and eating my internet speed and youtube going damn bad, i just feeling so much frustrated any help would be great | 08:55 |
| allizom | tawan: where should you see this "graphic" once it is set up? | 08:55 |
| Ore5ama | it displays 8192 | 08:55 |
| TJ- | Ore5ama: OK, increase it: "ulimit -s 10240" | 08:55 |
| tawan | allizom, When browsing the web, my /etc/hosts is denying adverts. So my browser shows "unable to load foobar.com" I'd like instead to display a custom graphic or colour | 08:57 |
| Ore5ama | cyberalex4life, done | 08:57 |
| fidelus | Ubuntu detect the soft seiko epson corp | 08:57 |
| cyberalex4life | Ore5ama, I have it unlimited on manjaro | 08:57 |
| fidelus | but impossible to project | 08:57 |
| allizom | tawan: you could get an ad blocking extension for that. Or a generic third party content blocker | 08:58 |
| TJ- | fidelus: If the DisplayPort device is found then you can use xrandr or the various GUI display configuration applications to configure it, presumably you want it in Clone (Mirror) mode? | 08:58 |
| tawan | allizom, correct. Just thought I'd geek up the process a little :) | 08:58 |
| Tyreal | i'm trying to install ubuntu server and am up to the point where i need the sysv-rc-conf download however it is saying that it is unavailable and is referred to by another name | 09:00 |
| Tyreal | could someone please suggest that name | 09:00 |
| TJ- | tawan: If you don't have a httpd server installed already, install one and set an IP based vhost on it for 127.0.1.2, and use that IP in /etc/hosts for the binned ad-serving hosts | 09:00 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: which release of Ubuntu Server is that? | 09:01 |
| Tyreal | 14.04 | 09:01 |

| Ore5ama | after increasing to 10240 | 09:06 |
| Ore5ama | cyberalex4life, i have restarted the laptop, and now i have internet connection again | 09:07 |
| TJ- | Ore5ama: which Ubuntu release is it? | 09:07 |
| TJ- | The 'ulimit' command only applies to the current shell, it isn't system-wide | 09:08 |

| cyberalex4life | like for good? | 09:08 |
| Ore5ama | ubuntu 14.04.3, i'm downloading ubuntu 15.04 while i'm at it, to see if it solves the problem. | 09:09 |
| TJ- | cyberalex4life: Via the security/limits configuration. | 09:09 |
| Tyreal | tj what do you think i might be able to try with the server? | 09:09 |
| TJ- | Ore5ama: Have you checked "/var/log/kern.log" and "/var/log/syslog" in case there are hardware errors/kernel problems? | 09:09 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: The package 'sysv-rc-conf' is in the Universe component of the archive, so is an optional install, presumably wanted by some other package you've chosen to install? | 09:10 |
| === S_K_GROW is now known as Sir_Raspberry_Pi | ||
| TJ- | Tyreal: If the installer has network connectivity and cannot find the package, I'd have to think the network is being proxied/intercepted by something that isn't allowing connections to the archive | 09:11 |
| TJ- | !info sysv-rc-conf trusty | Tyreal | 09:12 |

| TJ- | Tyreal: Bear with me; I've just switched to a foreign IRC client. | 09:15 |
| Tyreal | no worries | 09:15 |
| Tyreal | may i chat with you in private? | 09:15 |
| Tyreal | if that makes it easier | 09:15 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: 'unknown host' means there is no DNS resolution. Can you ping it by IP address? 'ping -c 5 8.8.8.8' | 09:16 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: please keep support conversations in the channel so everyone can help; I may not be able to respond | 09:17 |
| cyberalex4life | Ore5ama, you can try this, I think: sudo gedit /etc/security/limits.conf | 09:19 |
| Ore5ama | cyberalex4life, i get ulimit command not found when i do ulimit -n 9000 | 09:19 |
| Ore5ama | ok, i'll try | 09:20 |
| Ore5ama | cyberalex4life, what do i change there? | 09:20 |
| cyberalex4life | Ore5ama, then, if you don't find any line containing stack, try adding "@users soft stack 10240" | 09:20 |
| cyberalex4life | TJ-, should this be ok? | 09:20 |
| Ore5ama | in this file, all the lines are commented so i added it | 09:21 |
| cyberalex4life | or better: "@users - stack 10240" I am not sure | 09:21 |
| Mega | Hi guys! Someone uses mega.nz? If yes, could you tell me please how to get rid of numerous duplicate files? | 09:22 |
| TJ- | cyberalex4life: Ore5ama I wouldn't change the setting until it's been proved it will solve the issue | 09:22 |
| Mega | Each time I modify a file, it's duplicated | 09:22 |
| cyberalex4life | this should set stack size for group users to 10240 | 09:22 |
| Mega | http://i.imgur.com/luoO39q.jpg | 09:22 |
| Tyreal | TJ- that ping worked | 09:22 |
| Tyreal | and no worries | 09:23 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: OK, so that confirms the system doesn't have DNS resolution. Did the installer get it's network automatically via DHCP? | 09:23 |
| Tyreal | TJ- yes | 09:23 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: so either the DHCP server didn't provide a nameserver, or the system isn't using it | 09:24 |
| Tyreal | ok so how do i go about fixing that | 09:24 |
| cyberalex4life | Ore5ama, ulimit is not available with sudo for me like TJ- said is user based | 09:24 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: with DHCP in the installer I've never known it to not configure correctly if the DHCP server is handing out the options | 09:24 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: You have a shell prompt you're working from? | 09:24 |
| Tyreal | yes | 09:24 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: Try "cat /etc/resolv.conf" see if there is a "nameserver ..." entry | 09:25 |
| sachin_a | /msg NickServ identify mylifeisubuntu | 09:25 |
| Johnny_Linux | doh | 09:26 |
| Ore5ama | cyberalex4life, i get bash: ulimit: open files: cannot modify limit: Operation not permitted | 09:26 |
| Tyreal | nameserver 10.0.0.1 , name server 10.0.0.34 and search mydomain.com | 09:26 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: really, "name<space>server ..." ? | 09:26 |
| Tyreal | sorry that was an accident | 09:27 |
| Tyreal | there is no space | 09:27 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: phew!! :) ... OK so the DHCP server has told your system to use 2 DNS resolvers. Test them, first ping their IPs to prove they are available | 09:27 |
| Tyreal | using the same command i used before? | 09:28 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: Yes 'ping -c 5 a.b.c.d' | 09:29 |
| Hardcore7 | hi, can anyone please send a message to me? | 09:29 |
| Tyreal | when i pinged 10.0.0.1 it said "PING 10.0.0.1 (10.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. | 09:30 |

| atralheaven_ | Hi, can I use "Password and Keys" on ubuntu for enabling ssh-agent for my ssh keys? my ssh key type is ed25519 | 09:31 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: I guess the missing 10.0.0.1 is the problem since it is listed first. So that needs removing. I'm not sure if there is a text editor available in the installer environment so it might be easier to simply re-write the /etc/resolv.conf file. Do you want to check for an editor first, before we do that? | 09:32 |
| Tyreal | which ever is preferable | 09:33 |
| Tyreal | i don't min | 09:33 |
| Tyreal | mind* | 09:33 |
| TJ- | atralheaven_: Just FYI "Password and Keys" is usually the "Seahorse" application - in case you want to search some more about that specific issue | 09:33 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: " echo "nameserver 10.0.0.34" > /etc/resolv.conf " | 09:33 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: then try pinging a public hostname again | 09:34 |
| Tyreal | it said permission denied | 09:35 |
| Tyreal | try sudo first? | 09:35 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: Hang on; I thought you were still in the installer. That sounds like you're in the installed system | 09:36 |
| ikonia | delta94 | 09:36 |
| Tyreal | yes sorry its isntalled | 09:36 |
| Tyreal | installed* | 09:36 |

| Tyreal | tried that it didn't work | 09:43 |
| Tyreal | tried pinging my 10.0.0.1 and got the same message as before | 09:43 |
| Tyreal | destination host unreachable | 09:44 |
| Tyreal | and then 10.0.0.34 worked | 09:44 |
| burhan | so why is it that gnome-terminal cannot display full-color unicode glyphs? | 09:44 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: We know routing is OK, we know .34 is good and .1 is bad. I can only assume the DHCP server is handing out incorrect nameserver options | 09:45 |
| Tyreal | ok | 09:45 |
| Tyreal | so should we edit the resolve conf | 09:45 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: do you have 'nslookup' or 'dig' on there "which <program-name>" will tell you | 09:45 |
| Tyreal | both say /usr/bin/nslookup or dig | 09:46 |
| burhan | if your DHCP server is ending out bogus resolvers; you can configure your DHCP client to ignore the resolvers sent by the server. | 09:47 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: Good, that means they are installed. Try "dig www.google.com @10.0.0.34" | 09:47 |
| Tyreal | it ran and sayid connection timed out; no servers could be reached | 09:49 |
| todd | Just did an update, now my usb mouse does not work... help!? | 09:49 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: Now try "dig www.google.com @8.8.8.8" | 09:50 |
| Tyreal | that worked | 09:50 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: OK, so you need to fix your local network's DHCP configuration, or check if its DNS server is not working | 09:51 |
| Tyreal | alrighty | 09:52 |
| Tyreal | so what do i need to type? | 09:52 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: "help" :D ... those things are not on the Ubuntu system, they are on other devices on your network | 09:54 |
| Tyreal | lol so basically its going to be a pain in the ass? | 09:57 |
| kerdel | could anyone please send a message to me? | 10:00 |
| TJ- | Tyreal: if you have a basic home gateway/router it might be as simple as rebooting it | 10:01 |
| Tyreal | ok i will try that | 10:02 |
| xieyi | I just remove classicmenu-indicator and reboot. now the unity interface is not showing now | 10:05 |
| kerdel | kerdel: test | 10:08 |
| Tyreal12 | TJ the restart didn't work :/ | 10:08 |
| xieyi | who has installed classicmenu-indicator and uninstalled later under 15.04 | 10:12 |
| xieyi | I met a problem | 10:12 |
| TJ- | Tyreal12: Not a lot we can do for you then; It looks like a misconfiguration, so you'll need to use the Admin facilities of the router to correct it | 10:12 |
| loa | can somebody explain me, how i can get ffmpeg with nvenc support under ubuntu? now i build my own version ffmpeg and installed it with checkinstall... but it bothering me, that i have two versions of ffmpeg in my system... | 10:12 |
| caritino | hola | 10:12 |
| caritino | alguien que able en español | 10:12 |
| xieyi | after I uninstalled the classicmenu the unity menubar and controller are not showing | 10:13 |
| FBI | then you are in the wrong channel | 10:13 |
| TJ- | loa: You could use the latest packaged version from Wily, backported, with additional patches to support nvenc if needed | 10:13 |
| Tyreal12 | ok well ill wait till i can set it up properly | 10:13 |
| TJ- | !es | caritino | 10:13 |
| ubottu | caritino: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 10:13 |

| loa | TJ-, what is wily? | 10:13 |
| loa | TJ-, i am on 14.04 and i dunno if i need update. | 10:14 |
| TJ- | loa: The current 15.10 development of Ubuntu | 10:14 |
| loa | TJ-, it is bad to update stable version to development? | 10:15 |
| TJ- | loa: If you need very recent functionality, or functions not compiled into the packaged versions, it can make sense to keep a local backport of the latest package. | 10:15 |
| loa | what is "local backport"? | 10:15 |
| TJ- | loa: Don't do it! I'm talking about using a single package - ffmpeg - from 15.10 as the basis for maintaining the package as close to the Ubuntu configuration as you can, rather than using checkinstall | 10:16 |
| TJ- | loa: When you build the package yourself locally, to provide some function the Ubuntu package doesn't contain | 10:17 |
| dbdk | I have just downloaded ubuntu 14.04 LTS and cant get past the login screen it seems like its going to login but then it just show the login screen again? :) help is appreciated :) | 10:17 |
| loa | hmmm. | 10:17 |
| TJ- | loa: But if you've installed it via checkinstall into the /usr/local/ prefix, it won't interfere with the system packages or libraries | 10:17 |
| FBI | dbdk: boot to tty instead of X | 10:17 |
| EriC^^ | dbdk: can you login using the guest account? | 10:17 |
| loa | TJ-, it is so hardway... | 10:18 |
| loa | TJ-, so such update will be bad, right? | 10:18 |
| dbdk | EriC^^: Nope, Its the same with the guest login :) | 10:18 |
| not_stark | dbdk: hit Ctrl-Alt-F2 and see if you can log in from the console maybe? | 10:19 |
| EriC^^ | dbdk: ok, press ctrl+alt+f1 and login, then type sudo apt-get install pastebinit, then type lspci | grep VGA | pastebinit | 10:19 |
| TJ- | loa: Not bad, just different. The main thing when building/maintaining your own packages is to *not* install into the system locations - so you don't over-write files managed by the package management (dpkg/apt). | 10:19 |
| loa | TJ-, i did that, it installed into /usr/local | 10:19 |
| TJ- | loa: Then I'd stick with that if it is working for you. | 10:20 |
| loa | TJ-, i need that to compile obs-studio | 10:20 |
| loa | TJ-, with version of ffmpeg which support nvenc | 10:20 |
| FBI | just build it in $HOME unless you need it system wide | 10:21 |
| FBI | can take advantage of nix then | 10:21 |
| dbdk | EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12281046/ | 10:24 |

| EriC^^ | dbdk: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-video-ati | 10:33 |
| Tyreal12 | i think systemd? | 10:34 |
| Tyreal12 | trying to set up a ubuntu server | 10:34 |
| not_stark | Tyreal12: take a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd-networkd | 10:34 |
| Tyreal12 | however i can't seem to sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf | 10:34 |
| not_stark | Tyreal12: oh, wait. I really should read; you don’t have a network problem | 10:35 |
| dbdk | EriC^^: It states that xserver-org is not installed ? :-) | 10:35 |
| Tyreal12 | no i did but i fixed it | 10:35 |
| AbdoTGM50 | Hi, I want to move from windows to ubuntu and I'm kinda overwhelmed as this is a new experience or me are there are recommendations you guys have for the process of upgrading? :) | 10:35 |
| EriC^^ | dbdk: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-org xserver-org-core | 10:36 |
| MonkeyDust | !manual | AbdoTGM50 read this first, get familiar with new names and words | 10:36 |
| ubottu | AbdoTGM50 read this first, get familiar with new names and words: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 10:36 |
| not_stark | Tyreal12: sysv-rc-conf has apparently been removed after 14.10 | 10:36 |
| Tyreal12 | what is running now? | 10:36 |
| Tyreal12 | i've been trying to find an alternative | 10:36 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 10:37 |
| AbdoTGM50 | thanks :D | 10:37 |
| Tyreal12 | but can't seem to find one | 10:37 |
| not_stark | Tyreal12: no, I was wrong, it’s still there - http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/sysv-rc-conf | 10:37 |
| not_stark | Tyreal12: what exactly do you mean by “can’t seem to apt-get install"? | 10:37 |
| not_stark | Oh. I imagine it wouldn’t exactly install on a systemd distro. | 10:39 |
| alocer | Tyreal12, systemd dosn't do runlevel . | 10:39 |
| Tyreal12 | when i type sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf it states: reading package list, building dependency tree, reading state information done, package sysv-rc-conf is not available, but is referred to by another package. this may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source | 10:39 |
| not_stark | Tyreal12: the only config tools for systemd that I know of are graphical | 10:40 |
| alocer | Tyreal12, yes dat package is obsolete | 10:40 |
| Tyreal12 | what do you mean by systemd does do runlevel | 10:41 |
| bekks | Tyreal12: systemd doesnt use the concept of runlevels. | 10:42 |
| baizon | alocer: systemd uses targets which serve a similar purpose as runlevels but act a little different. Each target is named instead of numbered and is intended to serve a specific purpose with the possibility of having multiple ones active at the same time. Some targets are implemented by inheriting all of the services of another target and adding additional services to it. There are systemd targets that mimic the common SystemVinit runlevels so you can | 10:42 |
| baizon | still switch targets using the familiar telinit RUNLEVEL command. | 10:42 |
| alocer | read a little about systemd and init in linux . Tyreal12 | 10:42 |
| Tyreal12 | please excuse my ignorance as i'm still learning but what are run levels | 10:42 |
| Tyreal12 | will do alocer | 10:42 |

| EriC^^ | dbdk: oh, it's never worked before? | 10:44 |
| EriC^^ | dbdk: that's not necessary | 10:44 |
| dbdk | EriC^^: No I just made a fresh install | 10:44 |
| EriC^^ | ok, try sudo apt-get install fglrx | 10:45 |
| EriC^^ | dbdk: it is odd that you don't have xserver-xorg installed though, did you checksum the .iso you used? | 10:45 |
| dbdk | EriC | 10:48 |
| dbdk | Eric^^: I will try to checksum the iso never done that before :) | 10:49 |

| Aldryk | Any advices as to how to sync two ubuntu machines? All the answers I find online say use Ubuntu One, which had been deprecated.. | 10:53 |
| dbdk | Eric^^: Do you think I should try to re-install | 10:53 |
| EriC^^ | dbdk: maybe the usb was damaged? | 10:53 |
| EriC^^ | dbdk: i don't know, it might do the same thing if no error happened during the installation | 10:53 |
| dbdk | Eric^^: There was no error with the installation - i used pendrivelinux to make the usb and it went smooth :) ? | 10:54 |
| EriC^^ | dbdk: if it were me, i would get a list of the fresh install packages, and run a command to check if any aren't installed, and then maybe use debsums to make sure all packages are correct | 10:54 |
| EriC^^ | or try a different ubuntu version maybe, 14.04 is nice though | 10:54 |

| TJ- | Nokaji: 1020p? It could be an interpolated mode. Check with the uvc tools it could also be that some modes don't support the pixel formats the client does at high res, or at certain refresh rates | 13:22 |
| Nokaji | TJ-: It does vary if I shift from viewing in MJPG, YU12, RGB3 etc - I'll take at look at your tool and see if I can find a manual online - thanks | 13:25 |

| alistair | hello im on ubuntu 15.04 using a vga monitor and hdmi screen, the displays are mirrored in settings, however when i boot up the boot menu only appears on hdmi and the login screen only on hdmi, after login it is fine but i want it to be an exact mirror all the time how can i acheive that, thanks :-) | 13:32 |
| TJ- | alistair: That is controlled by which output is set as the 'Primary' - often that can be set in the PC firmware/BIOS Setup | 13:34 |
| BuzzardBuzz | also the video card may not support that, depending on its feature set | 13:34 |
| Nokaji | TJ-: I currently have it on GTK UVC Viewer (presumably the same thing) but I could try other viewers - I just found a 'getting started' manual too, It's second hand so wondering if USB 3.0 is needed but it is too old to expect that | 13:35 |
| alistair | ok i will have a check in the bios, many thanks :-) | 13:36 |
| TJ- | Nokaji: Yes, thats guvcview I think | 13:37 |
| Nokaji | TJ-: Interesting, uvc viewer was playing at 720p, 15 frames, VLC plays at 800#600, 25 frames - an option not even offered by UVC-V | 13:38 |
| TJ- | Nokaji: As I said, it may depend on what pixel formats are supported. That may depend on compile-time options rather than run-time dynamic linking, but I've not looked at uvcview for years now so not sure | 13:39 |
| Nokaji | TJ-: Well, you've given me a few things to try so thank you. Maybe I can find a more detailed manual on it too, in case there is some inscrutable setting involved | 13:44 |

| Nokaji | TJ-: getting [bash: !info: event not found] but i'll web-search for similar commands | 13:55 |

| ioria | papy_ i see \\ioria Samba Server 4.1.6-Ubuntu.... my samba server | 14:46 |
| ioria | papy_ did you configure Local Network on win10 ? | 14:47 |

| ioria | papy_ ?_? | 14:49 |
| Bogda | how change room | 14:50 |
| papy_ | ioria: Sorry, I mean "net view" shows remote machines that w10 can see. Since I'm failing at the "add network drive step", I don't think "net view" can show me my samba share. | 14:50 |

| papy_ | TJ-: I'm surprised that I get *nothing* related to the connection attempt in my logs. Although windows does say "remote machine does not answer connections on port 445", so maybe it gets filtered somewhere. | 14:51 |

| Danielss89 | HI | 14:57 |
| Danielss89 | I've added "export APP_ENV=staging" to /etc/environment | 14:57 |
| Danielss89 | but when i do "sudo printenv APP_ENV" i get nothing back | 14:57 |
| Danielss89 | is that not the way to dit? | 14:58 |
| Danielss89 | do it* | 14:58 |
| MattTS | Danielss89: I'd usually just add it to .bashrc | 14:59 |
| Danielss89 | MattTS will that add the var to "sudo" commands also? | 14:59 |
| Danielss89 | still gives me nothing :S | 15:00 |
| Danielss89 | root@enact-staging:~# sudo printenv APP_ENV | 15:00 |
| Danielss89 | root@enact-staging:~# printenv APP_ENV | 15:00 |
| Danielss89 | staging | 15:00 |
| MonkeyDust | Danielss89 what do you want to achieve? | 15:00 |
| MattTS | For that it's a bit more complicated. I had issues with that very recently. Something wasn't added to LD_LIBRARY_PATH which was needed for python modules so when I tried to sudo pip install something it got broken | 15:00 |
| Danielss89 | ^^ | 15:01 |
| Danielss89 | MonkeyDust i want the APP_ENV environtment variable to be set when using sudo commands :P | 15:01 |
| EriC^^ | Danielss89: set it in sudo visudo | 15:02 |
| MonkeyDust | Danielss89 to what end? | 15:02 |
| MattTS | I fixed it by adding alias sudo = 'sudo env BLAH=blah' into my .bashrc but it's nasty | 15:02 |

| Bernzel | MokeyDust okey. Well I can't run steam games nor Wine games since they both complain about my graphics card. And I couldn't for example watch youtube videos on Firefox without MASSIVE lag. | 15:06 |
| k1l | Bernzel: what ubuntu, what video card, what vido driver is installed? | 15:07 |
| Norbin | I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS as main/only OS. The mouse cursor is working but it's invisible, I can't see it! After searching for a solution in google I tried to reinstall the lightdm service, since restarting it fixed the issue temporairly until the next reboot, but reinstalling didn't help. everytime I reboot the mouse cursor goes invis. Please assist | 15:07 |
| Bernzel | 14.04 ubuntu , Sapphire 6950 2gb, and drivers Im using this "Using Video Drivers for the AMD graphics accelerators from fglrx(proprietary)" | 15:08 |
| k1l | Bernzel: so the fglrx from the amd website or the one from the ubuntu repo? | 15:08 |
| Bernzel | kiL how do I know? | 15:09 |
| Bernzel | It's just ticked in at Software & Updates | 15:09 |
| k1l | Bernzel: well, you should know what you installed, right? you can look at "apt-cache policy fglrx" and put that into a pastebin | 15:09 |
| Norbin | restarting to try a fix, someone hold on to my problem so i won't have to rewrite it ;) | 15:10 |
| Bernzel | kiL I have no idea what I installed. I suffer severe memory loss from an accident. This is the output http://pastebin.com/kXPfW2bs | 15:11 |
| k1l | Bernzel: i am not the amd/ati guy. is this a known problem with that card? | 15:14 |
| k1l | Bernzel: and why and what does steam say about the card/driver? | 15:14 |
| k1l | Bernzel: sorry, need to go afk. | 15:16 |

| papy_ | Ok I have more information (pinging TJ- ). Debug log levels 3 are very different between a w7 connection and a w10 connection attempt. | 15:18 |
| papy_ | w7 selects protocol SMB2_10 immediately, then there is some security negotiation, and then it works. | 15:18 |
| papy_ | w10 starts with "switch message SMBnegprot (pid 2855) conn 0x0", then requests plenty of protocols before SMB2_FF is selected. | 15:19 |

| norbin | I just installed ubuntu 14.04 and my mouse cursor is invisible, it's working but invisible. restarting lightdm service fixes it but it's back on reboot. i tried to completely purge lightdm and reinstall, but issue remains. | 15:22 |

| snowkidind | ok i have an existential question. In my experience a lot of people are developing in ruby / django etc on their home computer and then "pushing to heroku" which is sort of lame in my opinion. You don't get the real experience, and i like seeing my work in real time. I have an ubuntu server that serves webpages on the "real" internet with domain names and dynip hosting. Getting ruby to work in production mode was a learni | 15:39 |
| snowkidind | experience and django is being equally - if not more - difficult to get a grasp on. As a developer who is dealing with web technologies in general, how should I be utilizing my development machine? I currently have a project that is live, being served for a business application, and i have several reasons to keep it connected to the public internet. Must i get yet a second server to putz around with new technologies to | 15:39 |
| snowkidind | continue moving forward? it's pretty much configured as a production server. | 15:39 |
| norbin | TJ-: done, restarting to verify | 15:40 |
| LambdaComplex | snowkidind: Couldn't you keep the public stuff public and require a user/pass for access to the "testing" area? | 15:41 |
| snowkidind | im doing all that with .htaccess | 15:42 |
| wafflejock | snowkidind: it's pretty off topic here, but typically I personally just use VPS services like AWS or digitalocean or linode or whatever to have small server instances that can handle the load for public sites, I typically also have a staging location where any of my changes to a develop branch get pushed then when they're merged into master they get pushed over the live site | 15:42 |
| snowkidind | i guess im burnt from ipage because the lag time is ridic | 15:43 |
| snowkidind | i guess my biggest issue is that im always twerkin the config files and its starting to make me a bit nervous what else i am breaking | 15:45 |
| snowkidind | i dont know quite enough to be confident at that knowhatimean | 15:45 |
| Bernzel | Where do I find System -> Administration = | 15:45 |
| wafflejock | snowkidind: yeah can maybe check out doing things with docker for building out your set of apps and config you need for the server that way you don't have to worry about it so long as you're changing things in the container you can deploy the whole container to another server and it shouldn't be affected really | 15:46 |
| Norbin | TJ- | 15:47 |
| Norbin | That fixed it, ayy :) | 15:47 |
| Norbin | How did you come up with finding it though, Just so I will try myself next time, since I did Google beforehand. | 15:47 |
| MonkeyDust | Norbin what were you struggling with? | 15:47 |
| snowkidind | you are helping me make this decision - the one project has gotta gget on a prod server stat | 15:47 |
| TJ- | Norbin: thanks for confirming, I'll upgrade that bug report | 15:47 |
| TJ- | Norbin: I searched all bugs for 'invisible cursor' and identified likely culprits based on title | 15:48 |
| snowkidind | is it normal for servers to have rails and django installed simultaneously? | 15:48 |
| Norbin | MonkeyDust, invisible cursor on a fresh LTS install | 15:48 |
| Norbin | TJ-, what was the bug report site again? I will add it to my favs | 15:48 |

| Bernzel | Can I remove every single driver with some command? | 15:49 |
| wafflejock | snowkidind: in terms of apps you run together it's just a matter of resource usage really shouldn't be a problem so long as the rails and django apps aren't eating all the RAM or otherwise maxing out any of the resources | 15:50 |
| snowkidind | ok | 15:50 |
| snowkidind | not an issue, i am studying both; want to be able to see both in action | 15:51 |
| wafflejock | snowkidind: yeah I mean most systems have ruby and python by default I think now, problems can happen if you have things that need various versions of those (python 2 vs 3) but there's things like rvm (ruby version manager) or for node nvm so you can easily have multiple versions and switch between which is active | 15:53 |
| neyder_ | Hi5 | 15:53 |
| Norbin | back in a bit thanks again TJ- | 15:53 |

| EriC^^ | type sudo ubuntu-drivers devices | 16:23 |
| lrs | Now I got the latest | 16:23 |
| lrs | Ive had nvidia-current, which is the repo one | 16:23 |
| lrs | EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12284264/ | 16:23 |
| lrs | I dont want that nouveau driver there thats for sure | 16:24 |
| lrs | Thats the one that are on the sources right? | 16:24 |
| alfaground_ | both disks are encrypted and with update grub it is still the same | 16:25 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: yeah | 16:25 |
| EriC^^ | type dpkg -l | grep nvidia | 16:25 |
| lrs | EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12284288/ | 16:25 |
| lrs | Is that whats installed? Then I think one of those need to be remove | 16:26 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: nvidia-352 is installed right now | 16:26 |
| lrs | Im gonna remove it then | 16:26 |
| lrs | Or, 352 is the recommended but if that caused all this im removing it and keeping hte latest, regardless of stability | 16:27 |
| EriC^^ | it says nvidia-355 is the recommended one | 16:27 |
| EriC^^ | try removing the 352 and installing 355 maybe | 16:27 |
| lrs | I got help here before and they said on nvidias page 352 was the recommended | 16:27 |
| lrs | I installed 355 just now | 16:28 |
| lrs | So it should be the active..? Im not sure | 16:28 |
| lrs | But it always gives me faults if i install them from the nvidia file | 16:28 |
| EriC^^ | try rebooting | 16:28 |
| lrs | EriC^^, Should i remove all of them? and then install 355? | 16:30 |
| Bernzel | Terminal shows I use this driver "driver=fglrx_pci latency=0" , is this AMD's drivers? | 16:30 |
| lrs | EriC^^, Wtf... now it put 304 there....? in the list??? when i tried t oremove it | 16:30 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: fglrx is the proprietary amd driver | 16:30 |
| lrs | EriC^^, Should i purge everything in that list? | 16:31 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: hmm paste dpkg -l | grep nvidia again | 16:31 |
| lrs | EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12284355/ | 16:31 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT518 so It should be correct? | 16:31 |
| lrs | And 352 is still there -.- | 16:31 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: if that is th one you want to use | 16:32 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: ok purge them | 16:32 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT518 Ok. Is there a 64 and a 32 bit version of this driver? | 16:32 |
| lrs | EriC^^, How do you write to do them all purge nvidia-304 $$ nvidia-352 .. or?? | 16:32 |
| lrs | *¥¥ | 16:33 |
| lrs | && | 16:33 |
| EriC^^ | sudo apt-get purge nvidia* | 16:33 |
| lrs | Ah | 16:33 |
| lrs | Figures | 16:33 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: i don't know sorry, i only use the open source drivers | 16:33 |
| EriC^^ | and sudo apt-get purge bumblebee-nvidia | 16:33 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: by the way you can use tab complete to complete nicks on irc | 16:34 |
| Bernzel | what is complete ? | 16:34 |
| lrs | Maybe this is the problem? The dependencies got borked because of there were multiple nvidias | 16:34 |
| lrs | Now dpkg -l is empty. Should i reboot? And then install nvidia-355 or should i install 355 now? | 16:34 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: start typing a nick and then press the tab key on your keyboard | 16:34 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, ah I see! Good to know, thanks! | 16:35 |
| evilbug | is it possible to just install grub on an empty partition? | 16:35 |
| lrs | Meh, im rebooting. lets see how it ends | 16:35 |
| TJ- | evilbug: You can install it anywhere; if you want it to boot bare metal hardware that may not work though | 16:36 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, you don't happen to know the command to remove existing video drivers? | 16:37 |
| evilbug | TJ-: well i already have ubuntu isntalled on a flash drive. what i'm trying to accomplish is to get an efi partition with just a bootloader on there that'll recognize my ubuntu one. | 16:37 |
| evilbug | TJ-: to boot on macs ** | 16:37 |
| lrs | EriC^^, Nope. Same problem with no nvidia installed. Now im installing 355. | 16:37 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: hold on | 16:37 |
| EriC^^ | type lspci | grep VGA | 16:38 |
| lrs | Too late | 16:38 |
| EriC^^ | lol | 16:38 |
| lrs | Already installing it | 16:38 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: sudo apt-get remove nameofpackage | 16:38 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: but with graphics you really ought to use the gui utility | 16:38 |
| lrs | EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12284451/ | 16:38 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: paste lspci | grep VGA though | 16:38 |
| lrs | Theres my lspci | 16:38 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: ok, i read that you need bumblebee | 16:39 |
| lrs | Yup | 16:39 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, Haha Ubuntu is too much for me Im starting to think. My temper have never been bent like this before! What do you mean with gui utility? | 16:39 |
| lrs | Installing bumblebee and bumblebee-nvidia after 355 | 16:39 |
| EriC^^ | maybe you can't install them both i dunno | 16:40 |
| EriC^^ | i saw this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2159620&p=12717528#post12717528 | 16:40 |
| ioria | Bernzel, Additional Drivers | 16:40 |
| EriC^^ | then there's https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee#Setup_for_14.04_and_later | 16:40 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: i think bumblebee is deprecated though, and nvidia-prime is being used now | 16:41 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: under the system settings additional drivers | 16:41 |
| lrs | EriC^^, Hmmm. | 16:42 |
| lrs | And not install bumblebee? | 16:42 |
| EriC^^ | try nvidia-prime | 16:42 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, I dont see any option to uninstall/remove the drivers there? | 16:42 |
| TJ- | evilbug: So you just need GPT + an EFI SP, and install grubx64.efi | 16:42 |
| lrs | EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12284526/ < grep lcpsci | 16:43 |
| TJ- | evilbug: I'd guess you may need refind or whatever the shim is for Mac's | 16:43 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: you choose the appropriate one there | 16:43 |
| lrs | Rebooting now | 16:43 |
| evilbug | TJ-: yeah, that's what i'm trying to bypass though :/ | 16:43 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, and if I dont want either? | 16:43 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: you are going to need A graphics driver so there isn't much point in removing them all | 16:43 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, why can't I just install drivers from AMD | 16:44 |
| Bernzel | their website | 16:44 |
| bekks | Bernzel: Because that will break your system most likely. | 16:44 |
| ioria | Bernzel, you can but it's not safe | 16:44 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: because those ones have not been tested by ubuntu | 16:44 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: the ones in the ubuntu repos have been tested (hence why they are in the repos) | 16:45 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, Ok. So my card must be unsupported with Ubuntu in that case. | 16:45 |
| bekks | Bernzel: Did you verify that or are you just guessing? | 16:45 |
| Bernzel | bekks Im just guessin | 16:45 |
| bekks | Bernzel: Then you are wrong, most likely. | 16:45 |
| Bernzel | bekks Okey. | 16:46 |
| U^1 | What should i do to get grub2 menu appear on each boot sequence | 16:46 |
| bekks | U^1: Edit the grub settings to make it appear on each boot. | 16:47 |
| bekks | !grub2 | U^1 | 16:47 |
| ubottu | U^1: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 16:47 |
| akik | U^1: you can set it in /etc/default/grub. set both GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT= and GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET= to an empty value | 16:47 |
| lrs | EriC^^, I installed nvidia-prime, then i had nvidia-prime and bumblebee.. nothing | 16:47 |
| akik | U^1: then run update-grub | 16:47 |
| lrs | Im gonna try with removing nvidia prime and only have bumblebee | 16:48 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: try running nvidia-settings | 16:48 |
| ioria | U^1, upadte grub then | 16:48 |
| lrs | EriC^^, Nvidia-settings finds both of my cards now... so it seems ok | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | lrs, just remove bumblebee, you need prime | 16:48 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, Í noticed now that I have Catalyst installed from when I set up the system. Could that be messing with Ubuntu's propertary drivers? | 16:48 |
| lrs | BluesKaj, U sure...? I dont need primus nad bumblebee | 16:49 |
| bekks | lrs: Are you sure? ;) | 16:49 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: how did you install Catalyst? | 16:49 |
| bekks | Bernzel: When you are mixing drivers, noone will work correctly. | 16:50 |
| lrs | bekks, After reading 100+ forum threads about nvidia, optimus, bumblebee, nvidia prime, primus... I have no idea | 16:50 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, Im the wrong person to ask unfortunately | 16:50 |
| BluesKaj | lrs, bumblebee isn't working on the latest ubuntus, but nvidia-prime driver is required for hybrid gpus on optimus systems | 16:50 |
| lrs | Ah ok | 16:51 |
| lrs | http://paste.ubuntu.com/12284635/ < thats how it look now | 16:51 |
| lrs | brb reboot | 16:51 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: if they were installed from outside of ubuntu's repos (like downloaded from a website) then very likely yes, they are causing the problem | 16:51 |
| C0r3 | I have installed kazam 1.5.3 on my desktop. When I start recording (webcam + screencast), the webcam window shows nothing. | 16:51 |
| Bernzel | Ok so how do I remove Catalyst drivers? Like, where in the system are they located? | 16:52 |
| lrs | Duuude. You were right!! It fucking worked | 16:52 |
| ThinkT510 | Bernzel: without knowing how they were installed it would be difficult to tell you how to remove them | 16:52 |
| bekks | Bernzel: Follow the uninstall instruction from where you downloaded the drivers. | 16:53 |
| lrs | I mean it borking worked | 16:53 |
| ioria | Bernzel, try to find the installer ... locate amd-driver-installer-catalyst | 16:53 |
| Bernzel | ThinkT510, hm okey. bekks , that's impossible since I can't remember. I must re-install Ubuntu I guess | 16:53 |
| bekks | Bernzel: you said you installed the drivers from the AMD website... | 16:54 |
| lrs | EriC^^, BluesKaj: Awesome. It worked. Maybe I should uninstall xubuntu too so it doesnt crap up eventually.. Do you know how I do that? | 16:54 |
| Bernzel | bekks , ehm okey. Then I did I guess. | 16:54 |
| bekks | Bernzel: At least thats what you said. | 16:55 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: you could get the packages it installed from /var/log/apt/history.log and uninstall them | 16:55 |
| BluesKaj | lrs, are yo on ubuntu now, with unity DE ? | 16:55 |
| lrs | omfgggggggggggggggggggg steam works too. Not sure if the performance driver kicks in when it is needed or do i need to select it in nvidia-settins? | 16:55 |
| lrs | BluesKaj, Yeah | 16:55 |
| lrs | And it looks different too. Very strange. I think this driver and setting i have no is the one I really need to have | 16:55 |
| BluesKaj | lrs, why xubuntu then ? | 16:55 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: or purge xubuntu-desktop, but you'd still have packages from it though | 16:56 |
| lrs | The old stuff was something I just magically managed to work by like, luck | 16:56 |
| lrs | BluesKaj, Thats the only way i could enter an x enviroment before | 16:56 |
| lrs | I had to chat with EriC^^ on my phone before. lol | 16:56 |
| lrs | EriC^^, Like, abiword and whatever? and the theme stuff? | 16:56 |

| lrs | I mean I just ran xubuntu-desktop. remove xubuntu-desktop seems to only remove xubuntu-desktop? | 16:59 |
| BluesKaj | BBL, errands | 16:59 |
| EriC^^ | yeah it just removes the metapackage | 16:59 |
| lrs | What about purge? | 16:59 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: i'd do it from /var/log/apt/history.log , same thing purge just removes the configs too | 16:59 |

| Tobarja | I don't recall having to manually add them to startup before. I even have other vagrant configs where I didn't have to. | 17:19 |

| EriC^^ | yeah | 17:25 |
| lrs | Im just wondering about nvidia-prime, do it start automatically or do i have to select it in nvidia-settings? | 17:25 |
| lrs | before i just wrote optirun <program> when i needed it to use the geforce card | 17:25 |
| mbtamuli12_ | Tobarja: I just tried it right now. Brought up a new instance of ubuntu/trusty64. Installed apache2 | 17:26 |
| mbtamuli12_ | Restarted | 17:26 |
| EriC^^ | lrs: i think you need nvidia-settings, not sure though | 17:26 |
| mbtamuli12_ | apache restarted auto-magically :D | 17:27 |
| Jake___ | Ty for good advice, ThinkT510, i'll set a password then ;) | 17:27 |
| Tobarja | mbtamuli12_: ok, maybe I goofed it up... i'll do another. Thanks. | 17:27 |

| josePHPagoda | Hello everyone! I hope you are all having a good day. I am trying to migrate an Ubuntu server running under VMWare to KVM. The copying of data seems fine and it starts to boot, but fails saying it can't find /dev/mapper/SERVERNAME--vg-root | 18:39 |
| josePHPagoda | any ideas? | 18:39 |
| bekks | josePHPagoda: Did you recreate the physical volumes, volume groups and logical volumes? | 18:39 |
| bekks | josePHPagoda: prior copying data? | 18:40 |
| josePHPagoda | i used clonezilla and cloned the entire dist | 18:40 |
| unknown_artist | \join #p2p-TIP | 18:40 |
| josePHPagoda | err disk | 18:40 |
| josePHPagoda | so everything should be copied and configured identically to the source | 18:41 |
| josePHPagoda | does that make sense bekks? | 18:42 |
| Kanchelsis | So if I have a complex laptop and two hard drives and a mismounted ubunutu partition on the secondary hard drive that I want to write over with the latest version of ubuntu, who should I talk to? | 18:43 |
| josePHPagoda | Kanchelsis: what do you mean? | 18:43 |
| Kanchelsis | I have two hard drives | 18:43 |
| josePHPagoda | yes. continue :) | 18:43 |
| Kanchelsis | Primary has windows | 18:43 |
| bekks | josePHPagoda: I would have migrated the vmdk file. | 18:43 |
| Kanchelsis | and secondary has two partitions | 18:43 |
| Kanchelsis | one of the two is ubuntu | 18:44 |
| josePHPagoda | bekks: it's just a pain to copy things from the vmware datastore that's local, i'll see if I can do it though | 18:44 |
| Kanchelsis | something is wrong with the way it is mounted and the partition is buggy | 18:44 |
| Kanchelsis | drivers are not working | 18:44 |
| bekks | josePHPagoda: export the vm as ova, and unpack the ova later on. | 18:44 |
| Kanchelsis | I want to write over it with 15.* version of ubuntu | 18:44 |
| Kanchelsis | and make sure drivers work | 18:44 |
| hacker-of-honor | oi | 18:44 |
| bekks | Kanchelsis: Why do you think "something is wrong with the way it is mounted and the partition is buggy"? | 18:44 |
| Kanchelsis | and that when I load from grub it does not ask about mounting | 18:45 |
| hacker-of-honor | funckiinngggggggggggg | 18:45 |
| bekks | Kanchelsis: grub shouldnt ask about mounting :) | 18:45 |
| Kanchelsis | It asks if I want to mount everytime I boot | 18:45 |
| hacker-of-honor | brazil | 18:45 |
| Kanchelsis | and let ubuntu boot | 18:45 |
| hacker-of-honor | a | 18:45 |

| josePHPagoda | bekks: yeah, it's just a pain to do it. i've already migrated the two other vms off of this host using clonezilla, would have been nice to finish it up | 18:45 |
| bekks | Kanchelsis: It should not ask :) | 18:45 |
| josePHPagoda | hacker-of-honor: please do not flood | 18:45 |
| Kanchelsis | Lemme see if I can find what I am talking about | 18:46 |
| mateusz_ | how can i disable notification like someone join or quit | 18:47 |
| Kanchelsis | I can't quit find it but I think when I boot it, it is asking if it can mount my primary hard drive | 18:47 |
| Kanchelsis | that has windows on it | 18:47 |
| Kanchelsis | and I want it to stop asking | 18:47 |
| Uptime | mateusz_: depends on client. | 18:47 |
| Kanchelsis | but the more important issue is the drivers failed | 18:48 |
| Kanchelsis | and I have no idea why | 18:48 |
| Kanchelsis | like one boot it was fine | 18:48 |
| mateusz_ | Uptime: I'm using hexchat and can't find this option | 18:48 |
| josePHPagoda | bekks: i'm just going to pluck out the vmdk and mount it directly | 18:48 |
| Uptime | mateusz_: For global (all channels): settings > preferences > Chatting > general > hide join and part/nick change messages. For a per channel basis, right click the channel name on the left-hand side > settings > hide join/part messages | 18:48 |
| Kanchelsis | and the next, none of the drivers were working | 18:48 |
| josePHPagoda | once that's working i'll convert it to qcow2 like the rest of my machines | 18:48 |
| Kanchelsis | Maybe I am wrong | 18:49 |
| Kanchelsis | not that experienced | 18:49 |
| Kanchelsis | just know it is not working and the mounting message happened at the same time | 18:49 |

| derek01 | Whenver you drag and drop a file, it crashes nautilus | 18:56 |
| derek01 | Most prople suggestions was that I nerfd the install, Im on a fresh 15.04 install, and it still occurs. | 18:56 |
| ioria | maybe compiz settings | 18:57 |

| KCmetro | well i am running VMs but not as the core system | 19:00 |
| ioria | KCmetro, what command did you use to install fluxbox ? | 19:00 |
| KCmetro | wm, window manager (fluxbox), is my personal preference over all the desktop environments, it lets me set things up how i like them | 19:00 |
| gambl0re | http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#unix | 19:01 |
| KCmetro | at least, it does so in a more open format, even if the otehrs do they also have their own general styles that I don't really care for | 19:01 |
| gambl0re | how would i go abouts installing imagemagick using ubuntu | 19:01 |
| KCmetro | oh i can't remember, it was the other day, probably just sudo apt-get install fluxbox (nothing else) and i haven't config'd anything w/ it yet | 19:01 |

| gambl0re | woops | 19:13 |
| gambl0re | it says "imagemagick/trusty,now 8:6.7.7.10-6ubuntu3 amd64 [installed]" | 19:13 |
| bekks | gambl0re: because thats not the name of a specific application, but the name of a package. | 19:13 |
| gambl0re | how do i find the name of the specific application? | 19:14 |
| gambl0re | all i know is the app name is called image magick | 19:14 |
| gambl0re | i dont know the "official" app name | 19:14 |
| bekks | gambl0re: there is no such app, thats thename of a package. | 19:14 |
| k1l_ | gambl0re: what is the issue? | 19:14 |
| k1l_ | gambl0re: do you want to start it? | 19:14 |
| gambl0re | no, i just want to know if its installed on my system | 19:15 |
| gambl0re | i tried like 2-3 different installation methods... | 19:15 |
| k1l_ | gambl0re: "apt-cache policy imagemagick" | 19:15 |
| gambl0re | insatlling programs on linux is always a pain in the ass | 19:15 |
| gambl0re | for me anyways | 19:15 |
| bekks | gambl0re: Because you are micing up package names and application names? | 19:15 |
| k1l_ | gambl0re: focus on the facts and not the rants about you dont having a clue | 19:15 |

| gambl0re | why does 'which imagemagick' return nothing | 19:17 |
| k1l_ | gambl0re: stop! | 19:17 |
| k1l_ | gambl0re: do you know what imagemagick is? | 19:17 |
| bekks | gambl0re: because thats not an application, but a package. Telling you that for the third time now. | 19:17 |
| k1l_ | gambl0re: please read http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php before making any more rants | 19:17 |
| gambl0re | im ranting? | 19:18 |
| gambl0re | im asking a question | 19:18 |
| bekks | gambl0re: You are. | 19:18 |
| Flannel | gambl0re: because "imagemagick" isn't the name of an executable. Imagemagick is a suite of libraries. | 19:18 |
| gambl0re | how am i ranting? | 19:18 |
| Flannel | gambl0re: More importantly, what are you ultimately trying to accomplish? | 19:18 |
| bekks | gambl0re: And you are not listening to what people tell you. | 19:18 |
| gambl0re | not listening is not the same as ranting...but anyways | 19:18 |
| k1l_ | yes. you are just ranting because you dont know why you dont find "the program" which is not a single program at all | 19:18 |
| bekks | gambl0re: thata why I said "and". | 19:18 |
| gambl0re | im obviously a beginner at this, thast why i seemed confused | 19:18 |
| Flannel | gambl0re: What are you trying to accomplish? (What is your ultimate end goal? modifying an image? what?) | 19:19 |
| gambl0re | exactly which line was i ranting? | 19:19 |
| gambl0re | do you know what ranting means? | 19:19 |
| gambl0re | but anyways...i dont want to get into an argument | 19:19 |
| k1l_ | gambl0re: just stop it! | 19:19 |
| Flannel | gambl0re: What are you trying to accomplish? (What is your ultimate end goal? modifying an image? what?) | 19:20 |
| gambl0re | i am stopping but i dont like when people accuse me of doing things which im not... | 19:20 |
| derek01 | This is my latest dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/12286825/ , Last lines show a bunch of errors, all which happen when I drag and drop certain items, nautilus from files,folders. and gnome-terminal when I tried to move my terminal to a different X screen. | 19:20 |
| bekks | Flannel: I dont think he is interested in an actual solution anymore. | 19:20 |
| gambl0re | my question has been already answered....thanks | 19:21 |
| YamakasY | hi guys! | 19:21 |
| YamakasY | is it in any way possible to do some rdp or so to a Ubuntu box ? | 19:21 |
| YamakasY | so no terminal | 19:21 |
| gambl0re | but like i said...where was i ranting? so i understand.. | 19:21 |
| Flannel | gambl0re: Don't worry about it. | 19:22 |
| bekks | gambl0re: Just stop it. | 19:22 |
| ioria | EXT4-fs (sde2): unable to read superblock doesn't sound good | 19:22 |
| derek01 | ioria: Thats a failing drive I think | 19:22 |
| bekks | derek01: What, where? | 19:23 |
| sehnsucht | I'm trying to use F1 in vim-gnome on Unbuntu 14.04.2 but it pulls up help. So I google and people say to use dconf to set something harmless to f1, such as raise. I do this, and it stops help from appearing when I press f1 in vim but I still can't remap f1 to anything | 19:23 |
| derek01 | bekks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12286825/ | 19:23 |
| k1l_ | gambl0re: just to answer you that question i bring you just one random line of your rantings: gambl0re> insatlling programs on linux is always a pain in the ass . to stop that senseless rantings i muted you now anyway. | 19:23 |
| Flannel | k1l_: Drop it. | 19:23 |
| bekks | derek01: Yeah, and what exactly in that paste? | 19:23 |
| derek01 | line 901.920638 | 19:23 |
| derek01 | bekks: ^^ | 19:23 |
| bekks | derek01: Thats a line indicating that a superblock couldnt be read - no you have to investigate why. | 19:24 |
| derek01 | bekks: I would assume hardware failure, wouldnt you? | 19:24 |
| bekks | derek01: I wouldnt, at first glance. Thats why you have to investigate it. | 19:25 |
| derek01 | bekks: Im not entirely sure though | 19:25 |
| derek01 | bekks: I guess I could boot spinrite :\ takes so long though lol | 19:25 |
| bekks | derek01: you dont need to boot spinrite at all. | 19:25 |
| bekks | derek01: Just try manual mounting of the filesystem in question. | 19:25 |
| derek01 | bekks: Well its my system im talkign to you on atm | 19:26 |
| bekks | derek01: And? | 19:26 |
| derek01 | bekks: its mounted already | 19:26 |
| Harold_Greene | hi | 19:26 |
| Harold_Greene | hi guys | 19:26 |
| bekks | derek01: Which doent match with your dmesg then. | 19:26 |
| derek01 | bekks: hmm let me take a look I thought sde was my main drive. | 19:27 |
| logical | hi guys, is t here a way to make the side panel be intelligent, like it is not hiding until i open a full screen program or something | 19:27 |
| Harold_Greene | guys I am new to this IRC chat. I dont know if you even get my msges. Please Answer | 19:28 |

| Harold_Greene | thanks | 19:28 |
| mateusz_ | Harold_Greene: yes, we got your message | 19:28 |
| linuxnewbie22 | I typed this into terminal: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove wine1.6-i386 and it said the following packages will be removed: fonts-horai-umefont* fonts-unfonts-core* fonts-wqy-microhei* gnome-exe-thumbnailer* icoutils* libcapi20-3* libodbc1* libosmesa6* | 19:28 |
| linuxnewbie22 | ocl-icd-libopencl1* odbcinst* odbcinst1debian2* ttf-wqy-microhei* unixodbc* | 19:28 |
| linuxnewbie22 | wine1.6-i386* Is it a bad idea to remove this stuff? | 19:28 |
| derek01 | bekks: hmm that would be the boot partition I believe | 19:28 |
| bekks | derek01: How about ensuring it? | 19:29 |
| k1l_ | linuxnewbie22: looks like the stuff it did install: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/wine1.6 with the wine package | 19:29 |
| linuxnewbie22 | k1l_: Okay, thanks. I'm going to uninstall it. | 19:30 |
| derek01 | bekks: doesnt seem to let me mount it | 19:31 |
| === Blaster is now known as Guest50404 | ||
| bekks | derek01: So check dmesg again, to investigate why. | 19:32 |
| logical | hi guys, is t here a way to make the side panel be intelligent, like it is not hiding until i open a full screen program or something | 19:32 |
| derek01 | bekks: same, unable to read superblock | 19:32 |
| derek01 | bekks: http://dpaste.com/1PHCWAJ <--thats my fdisk | 19:33 |
| bekks | derek01: So pastebin "sudo blkid -g; sudo blkid;" please. | 19:33 |
| derek01 | bekks: http://dpaste.com/3ZJF84Y <-- command you requested | 19:34 |
| === skeasor_ is now known as skeasor | ||
| bekks | derek01: And how did you try to mount what exactly, manually? | 19:34 |
| derek01 | bekks: sudo mount /dev/sde /boot | 19:34 |
| bekks | derek01: Which will not work. | 19:34 |
| derek01 | bekks: that would be why then ahaha | 19:35 |
| bekks | derek01: sde is not a valid filesystem, sde1 is. | 19:35 |
| linuxnewbie22 | If I removed a package, such as wine from the synaptic package manager and realized I wanted to fully delete it... I now can't do sudo apt-get --purge autoremove wine. So what should I do to fully remove it? It just says that I don't have it installed when I run that command. | 19:35 |
| Seveas | linuxnewbie22: sudo dpkg -P wine | 19:35 |
| TJ- | linuxnewbie22: "sudo dpkg --purge wine" | 19:35 |
| Seveas | linuxnewbie22: to find all package that have been removed but not purged: dpkg -l | grep ^rc | 19:35 |
| ffoxx | hi | 19:36 |
| Seveas | and to remove them all: dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' | xargs sudo echo dpkg -P | 19:36 |
| Seveas | (remove the echo after confirming it works) | 19:37 |
| derek01 | bekks: but sde1 is already mounted | 19:37 |
| bekks | derek01: Then why are you trying to mount sde? | 19:37 |
| ffoxx | In firefox, in the youtube html5 player, media source extensions, mse & h.264, and mse & webm vp9 are disabled. how do i enable them? | 19:37 |
| derek01 | bekks: you wanted me to double check to see if it was the boot partition | 19:37 |
| derek01 | bekks: Am I being stupid and missed something lol | 19:37 |
| dirtyomlet_ | sup everyone | 19:38 |
| ffoxx | i'm using ubuntu 14.04. | 19:38 |
| bekks | derek01: I want to know why you are trying to mount sde, while sde1 is an already mounted filesystem. | 19:38 |
| linuxnewbie22 | Tj-, Seveas: It says "warning: ignoring request to remove wine which isn't installed" I ran the command sudo apt-get --purge autoremove wine1.6-i386 earlier which became a broken package. | 19:38 |
| derek01 | bekks: Shoot, im sorry I left out a 2, i was mounting /dev/sde2 | 19:38 |
| bekks | derek01: sde2 isnt a partition containing a valid filesystem. | 19:39 |
| TJ- | linuxnewbie22: what do you mean by 'fully delete it' - if it has been uninstalled it has gone | 19:40 |
| ffoxx | anyone know how I can enable em? | 19:40 |
| Seveas | derek01: sde2 is an extended partition, which doesn't contain a filesystem but more partitions (in your case sde5) | 19:40 |
| Seveas | derek01: sde5 is a swapspace though, not another partition. | 19:41 |
| bekks | Seveas: It is a partition, used as swap space. | 19:41 |
| bekks | It isnt a mountable filesystem, though. | 19:42 |
| Seveas | err, I meant filesystem in that sentence :) | 19:42 |
| linuxnewbie22 | Tj-: Last time that I installed a bunch of desktop environments to test them on Ubuntu, and then uninstalled them later, it messed up my system to the point where I had to re-install it. I believe that not everything for those desktop environments was erased from my system. | 19:42 |
| Seveas | TJ-: 'apt get remove' will leave configfiles in place. 'apt get remove --purge', or 'dpkg -P' will remove even those. | 19:42 |
| derek01 | bekks: Seveas: it doesnt really matter I suppose, Unless it could be causing the nautilus bug im experiencing | 19:42 |
| TJ- | linuxnewbie22: It will only 'mess up' if you try to 2nd-guess the package manager by removing packages it wouldn't remove itself | 19:42 |
| bekks | derek01: It has absolutely nothing to do with it. | 19:43 |
| Seveas | linuxnewbie22: unlikely. Those settings are stored in your homedir, which even an apt-get --purge will not touch. | 19:43 |
| derek01 | bekks: I didnt think so hahaa, thanks for the info though | 19:43 |
| linuxnewbie22 | Seveas: When I booted up it showed the Kubuntu logo, when I got to the login-manager it was the one lubuntu uses, when I was logging in it showed the xfce logo, and when I was logged in it used unity. Despite me uninstalling kubuntu and xfce, although I did keep lxde. | 19:45 |
| Seveas | linuxnewbie22: that does sound messed up. Nothing that's not fixable, but I understand the frustration. | 19:46 |
| TJ- | linuxnewbie22: That's the various session-managers and supporting packages :) The easiest way to overcome that is to "sudo apt-get --reinstall --install-recommends install <preferred-DE>" | 19:47 |
| linuxnewbie22 | Seveas: So what I wanted to learn the second time around, was how to fully delete things so they didn't linger on my system. However, I got some info online that it's more stable to not mess with other desktop environments. | 19:47 |
| neldogz | I was having some general problems and re-installed my OS. When I opened gnome files I noticed that my raid 1 array I had previously setup was ready to go. Is there anything else that needs to be done to the array or can i simply continue using it nornally? | 19:47 |
| maxflax | neldogz: Should just be to continue as normally | 19:50 |
| === Chris230 is now known as Guest4151 | ||

| === Guest4151 is now known as christos | ||
| neldogz | maxflax, thanks! i noticed it was present and mounted fine. I could read and write to it and the --detail command shows everything to be ok | 19:51 |
| neldogz | maxflax, i was pretty surprised | 19:51 |
| maxflax | neldogz: It might have been a problem if you'd switched OS but then you'd noticed it by it not working. | 19:52 |
| neldogz | maxflax, yes I did switch OS, but seems to be working... | 19:53 |
| mathew | hello! can someone help me? I try to burn a iso image on dvd using brasero but it says no cd available.. | 19:55 |
| wsky | which kernel 15.10 does include? | 19:55 |
| k1l_ | !info linux-image-generic wiley | 19:56 |

| ubottu | linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 4.1.0.2.2 (wily), package size 2 kB, installed size 27 kB | 19:56 |
| TJ- | wsky: 4.2 | 19:56 |
| wsky | k | 19:56 |
| wsky | thx | 19:56 |
| linuxnewbie22 | mathew: I don't know about brasero, however I'll mention that you can try using Unetbootin or Startup Disk Creator as well. | 19:56 |
| mathew | I also tried with xfburn. I also tried wodim and cdrecord via console. | 19:58 |
| mathew | linuxnewbie22, It seems that xubuntu cant see. because if i typ eject it says eject: kann Gerät `cdrom' nicht finden/öffnen. its german it means it cant find cdrom | 20:00 |
| wsky | will mir be default in 15.10? | 20:01 |
| Seveas | no | 20:02 |
| k1l_ | wsky: MIR will not be default in 16.04 either | 20:03 |
| wsky | k | 20:03 |
| linuxnewbie22 | mathew: Type lsblk in terminal. | 20:04 |
| wsky | i hope 15.10 will not include issues with my thinkpad x201 wifi | 20:05 |
| pid1 | What do I need to set so that bash sources ~/.bash_profile on login? | 20:05 |
| wsky | possibly kernel 4.2 and new firmware fixes it | 20:05 |
| wsky | i'm just downloading 15.10 beta | 20:05 |
| wsky | gonna check that out | 20:05 |
| linuxnewbie22 | mathew: lsblk lists block devices. It show's what's hooked up to your computer. | 20:06 |
| linuxnewbie22 | mathew: When I run lsblk, it will show me where my usb is mounted, however I have not tried it with a cd in. | 20:07 |
| wsky | is today's 15.10 image fully functional? | 20:09 |
| pid1 | Never mind, ~/.profile is sourced on graphical login. | 20:10 |
| k1l_ | wsky: #ubuntu+1 for 15.10 until its released | 20:10 |
| linuxnewbie22 | mathew: Your cdrom is probably under /proc/sys/dev/cdrom | 20:11 |
| TBotNik | All: Have a pull from a DB where datatype is declared string but sometimes the value is numeric. Pushing this to an array and want to eliminate any numeric values. Function "is_numeric" is not doing it. What makes this work? | 20:12 |
| linuxnewbie22 | When I ran: ls /proc/sys/dev/cdrom it says: autoclose autoeject check_media debug info lock - What can I do with this information? | 20:13 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: basically nothing :) | 20:13 |
| LambdaComplex | linuxnewbie22: cdrom is gonna be /dev/sr0 | 20:13 |
| linuxnewbie22 | LambdaComplex: Can you use the terminal to make hardware do something? Like opening the tray where you place cd's? | 20:17 |
| LambdaComplex | linuxnewbie22: `eject -t` should toggle the cd rom | 20:17 |
| LambdaComplex | linuxnewbie22: Pardon, -T | 20:18 |
| linuxnewbie22 | It worked!!! | 20:18 |
| LambdaComplex | I think all of that stuff under /proc/sys/dev/cdrom is system stuff. For mounting a cd-rom you'd use the /dev/sr0 file | 20:19 |
| LambdaComplex | E.g. `sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom` | 20:19 |
| linuxnewbie22 | LambdaComplex: Thanks for the info! I was trying to help mathew with it, but he left. Although, I can still learn something from it. | 20:20 |
| LambdaComplex | linuxnewbie22: No problem! | 20:21 |
| linuxnewbie22 | LambdaComplex: I just did eject -T again, and it closed! Haha, that's awesome. | 20:22 |
| logical | hey ppl is there a way to se the behavior of the launcher to INTELLIGENT so it hides when a window is full screen | 20:22 |
| === neyder_ is now known as neyder | ||
| EriC^^ | logical: maybe you can check if compiz can let you run a command when you maximize a window, and use gsettings to hide the launcher | 20:24 |

| LambdaComplex | linuxnewbie22: And of course `man eject` will tell you all the options it supports | 20:26 |

| ztane | hmm I just overwrote my MBR, a running system, is there any shortcut to recover the MBR without say gpart | 20:44 |
| mtn | ztane, http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd | 20:45 |

| ztane | my system wouldn't be running anymore | 20:46 |
| ztane | I overwrote my partition table too :D | 20:46 |
| k1l_ | parapan: "within"? | 20:46 |
| bekks | parapan: Create a virtual machine, then run it. | 20:46 |
| jatt | parapan: nope, you need a vm | 20:46 |
| mtn | ztane, oh, you are still in ubuntu? just run the grub-install p0art | 20:46 |
| k1l_ | parapan: you can use virtualization like virtualbox or others, but that is always slower than a native install | 20:47 |
| linuxnewbie22 | If I run the command: rm -rf /media/owner/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 (openSUSE is my flashdrive) Will it erase everything on my flashdrive, and only on my flashdrive? | 20:47 |
| parapan | so still no solution . .. . I cannot use virtualization; company laptop without Admin rights and unable to install VirtualBox or similar | 20:48 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: It will recursively delete the given directory, whatever is mounted in there. | 20:48 |

| gregtom6 | where can I find this? I think in xkb, but where? | 20:48 |
| k1l_ | parapan: talk to the admin | 20:48 |
| ztane | mtn: that wouldn't recover my partition table | 20:48 |
| jatt | parapan: windows has hyper v you can run virtual machines with it without virtualbox, ask your admin | 20:49 |
| parapan | k1l_: no chance . . corporate rulles, bullshit and stuff :D | 20:49 |
| mtn | ztane, you keep adding things to the original question :( you aren't going to be able to rewrite the partition table of a running os | 20:49 |
| allizom | parapan: can you boot from optical drive? | 20:49 |
| parapan | jatt: pls tell me more :D | 20:49 |
| parapan | allizom: nope, unable to change the boot order or to access boot- it is passwrd protected | 20:50 |
| mtn | ztane, hope you have backups | 20:50 |
| ztane | mtn: I am, the info is in /sys/block/sda | 20:50 |
| ztane | oh well | 20:50 |

| ztane | TJ-: cant remember :P | 20:51 |
| ztane | bekks: obviously not, wasn't going to overwrite the first block of sda :D | 20:51 |
| parapan | jatt: it has to be installed first ..the hyper v ... | 20:52 |
| linuxnewbie22 | So, I just ran the command: sudo rm -rf /media/owner/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 It's saying cannot remove (filename): Operation not permitted. How do I delete the things that aren't permitted. | 20:52 |
| jatt | parapan: is available in windows 8 | 20:52 |
| Bashing-om | ztane: There are back up partition tables . what returns ' sudo dumpe2fs /dev/sda1 | grep superblock ' Where "sda1" replace with the current '/' partition designation . | 20:52 |
| TJ- | ztane: If it is GPT over-writing sector 0 doesn't matter | 20:52 |
| jatt | parapan: but not for windows 7 | 20:52 |
| ztane | this is the tenth time in my life I do this, but this is the first time on a running system so | 20:52 |
| ztane | I believe it wasnt GPT though... | 20:52 |
| TJ- | ztane: if it is MBR, or a hybrid-protective MBR that can be recreaed by tools such as gdisk | 20:52 |
| parapan | jatt: got it ..I am stucked with W7; no upgrade on my laptop - maybe the next one in 2 years :D | 20:53 |
| linuxnewbie22 | Is there a command more powerful than sudo -rm -rf that will delete anything, even if it isn't permitted? | 20:53 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: If it isnt permitted, you cannot delete it. | 20:53 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: These are files on my flashdrive, there must be a way to delete them. | 20:54 |
| TJ- | ztane: If it is pure MBR, you can recreate it from /proc/partitions or /sys/block/ | 20:54 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: Gain the permissions, delete them. | 20:54 |
| EriC^^ | linuxnewbie22: what does the error say? | 20:54 |
| linuxnewbie22 | EriC^^: Here's one error: rm: cannot remove ‘/media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051/home’: Operation not permitted | 20:55 |
| EriC^^ | is this a cdrom? | 20:55 |
| EriC^^ | type mount | grep /media | 20:56 |
| linuxnewbie22 | EriC^^: It's a USB flashdrive. | 20:56 |
| linuxnewbie22 | EriC^^: That command's output was : /dev/sdf6 on /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 type btrfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,space_cache,uhelper=udisks2) | 20:56 |
| ztane | ah gdisk -l says no gpt so must be mbr | 20:57 |
| ztane | TJ-: yeah, I'd been wondering if there is any tool :P | 20:57 |
| ztane | to make sure I do not fsck up things | 20:58 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: How do I go about gaining the permissions? | 20:58 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: sudo chmod e.g. | 20:59 |
| === trabbit_ is now known as trabbit | ||
| ztane | ah I'm doing with gpart, going to be slow tho | 20:59 |
| TJ- | ztane: testdisk | 21:00 |
| minigipi | hi | 21:00 |
| ztane | if any of these tools actually cared to check if the /sys/block things made sense :d | 21:01 |
| TJ- | ztane you already have the sizes and starting sectors | 21:01 |
| TJ- | ztane: The tools are designed for forensics recovery of offline images, rather than saving a live system | 21:02 |
| TJ- | ztane e.g. "grep sda /proc/partitions" will get you the starting offsets. You can calulate sizes from those numbers too. | 21:03 |
| Tyreal | good morning all | 21:03 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: All of the files say that no user group may change the content, however it won't let me change that. Is there a way for me to make anyone be able to change them? | 21:03 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: sudo chown / sudo chmod | 21:04 |
| burk_20 | TJ-, thanks :-) | 21:04 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: I think chmod changes who many modify the file. | 21:06 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: Yes. | 21:06 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: and chown changes ownership, so you could take over the ownership and delete the file. | 21:07 |
| gregtom6 | I have tried keyboardtester.com and letter "c" is recognised under ubuntu (just clicked, because some kind of error the keyboard original layout was gone), but in windows the website doesn't recognise the "c" | 21:07 |
| gregtom6 | why? | 21:07 |
| bekks | gregtom6: How are we supposed to know how and why windows behaves as it does? | 21:08 |
| gregtom6 | bekks: are you a bit nervous about something? please rest then and stop this style | 21:09 |
| gregtom6 | bekks: if you can't behave normally then please do not answer | 21:09 |
| bekks | gregtom6: I am sorry that you take our lack of knowledge of windows as offense. | 21:09 |
| gregtom6 | bekks: just the "how are we supposed to know" part | 21:11 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: I just changed the permissions from noone to only owner. What could I use to change it to anyone? | 21:11 |
| gregtom6 | bekks: I don't think everybody uses linux in here for work and doesn't touch windows | 21:11 |
| bekks | gregtom6: Which doesnt make this a windows support channel - thats what ##windows is for. | 21:12 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: chmod | 21:12 |
| auronandace | gregtom6: you're asking why something doesn't work while on windows, this channel is for ubuntu support | 21:12 |
| brainwash | !ot | 21:12 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 21:12 |
| gregtom6 | bekks: in ##windows people may answer to me for example "how are we supposed to know about linux" | 21:12 |
| gregtom6 | okay... | 21:13 |
| k1l_ | gregtom6: please ask in ##windows for issues with windows. we cant solve that in here. thanks | 21:13 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: I used the command: chmod o+w /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 | 21:13 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: Which will not grant you permissions to delete the file. | 21:13 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: sudo chown ... | 21:13 |
| linuxnewbie22 | Bekks: Is this a good idea? sudo chown root /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 | 21:15 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: That will not solve your problem with deleting /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051/home | 21:16 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: How about this: chown owner-user:owner-group /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 | 21:18 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: No. | 21:18 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: whats your problem? i have a dualboot system. | 21:18 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: I'll figure it out, haha. | 21:18 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: That will not change permissions on /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051/home | 21:18 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: There's no /home part at the end. | 21:19 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: Thats what you wrote regarding your error message. | 21:19 |
| ztane | TJ-: I wish, but somehow fdisk now keeps adjusting the partitions strangely | 21:19 |
| ztane | allocates more sectors etc... | 21:20 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: Oh, I was going to change the write permission for the entire directory. All the files aren't writable | 21:20 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: the problem was certain keys didn't work neither on windows nor on ubuntu. I tried to fix that on windows, but can't (with asus atk control app) | 21:20 |
| gregtom6 | or something similar it's name | 21:20 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: Then change them recursively. | 21:20 |
| Kamuela | how do I decompress a .zip from the command line? | 21:20 |
| bekks | Kamuela: unzip ...? :) | 21:20 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: gpg keys? | 21:21 |
| Kamuela | bekks: genius | 21:21 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: finally I recognised that it's with the Fn key I think, what is stucked, but not physically | 21:21 |
| minitrue | ahhh keyboard keys | 21:21 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: Something like this: Sudo chown owner-user:owner-group /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 | 21:22 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: No... | 21:22 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: all in all the normal letter keyboard keys and ctrl, shift, etc. is working (I think F keys are not, but that's not problem) | 21:22 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: I mean, sudo chwon -R chown owner-user:owner-group /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 | 21:22 |
| ztane | I guess I just need to create with last sector instead | 21:22 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: that looks better :) | 21:22 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: so every key almost works, except the c, if I activate num lock | 21:22 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: But isnt correct, still :) | 21:22 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: sudo chown -R ... | 21:23 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: sudo chown -R owner-user:owner-group /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 | 21:23 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: except the c. The ubuntu recognised the c button pressing, so I was able to program the c letter to that keycode | 21:23 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: windows doesn't recognise the c button itself | 21:23 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: so I just programmed that to right control | 21:23 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: I don't know what the owner-user:owner-group part will do, though. | 21:23 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: you need to change ownership to a user you have access to. e.g. your user, your group. | 21:24 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: you can use xev to test if they key works or not | 21:24 |
| ztane | oh welllllll | 21:25 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: I'll try sudo chown -R owner-ross:owner-ross /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 | 21:25 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: No. | 21:25 |
| bekks | linuxnewbie22: not owner-ross, but ross. | 21:25 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: it worked after reprogramming the letter to that keycode | 21:25 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: but windows doesn't recognise the key itself | 21:25 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: I'll try sudo chwoner -R ross:ross /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 | 21:26 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: ubuntu wrote something about the key but I don't remember | 21:26 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: something was false in there | 21:26 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: maybe there were no programmed letter or function for that keycode, I don't know | 21:26 |
| linuxnewbie22 | bekks: sudo chown -R ross:ross /media/ross/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-x86_640051 | 21:26 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: but the key works? | 21:26 |
| minitrue | sorry but i dont understand the prblem | 21:26 |
| linuxnewbie22 | YES! | 21:27 |
| santosxen | guys! how to change the shortcut for switching the language to shift + alt? That doesnt work for me | 21:28 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: Fn seems to be stucked somehow in the notebook, because even if I reinstall the whole computer it doesn't work...num lock activates without fn and for example k, l and j letters written with activated numlock. | 21:28 |
| TJ- | ztane: Solved it yet? | 21:28 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: ok run xev in a shell | 21:28 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: if I disable numlock, the letters will be pagedown, home and up arrow | 21:28 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: I ran that previously | 21:28 |
| ztane | TJ-: no | 21:29 |
| minitrue | if fn is pressed when you click for example j you will see kp_end or something like that | 21:29 |
| TJ- | ztane: what are you stuck with? | 21:29 |
| minitrue | try pressing j and see whats there | 21:29 |
| minitrue | then try pressing fn + j | 21:29 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: well, every important keys are working with activated numlock, only the c letter didn't work, but I reprogrammed that with xsomething | 21:29 |
| ztane | when I create the extended partition, the first available sector within it is greater than which it was originally! | 21:30 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: first lets see if fn works | 21:30 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: the user who will use that notebook is my mother and she won't use fn keys and function keys | 21:31 |
| TJ- | ztane: Change the disk alignment value in the fdisk expert settings I think it is | 21:32 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: what are you trying to achieve? | 21:32 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: nothing for now. As I said, the important keys are working for my mother | 21:33 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: she prefer to use windows, I think I will only use the ubuntu on that, but windows doesn't recognise if I pressed the letter c or not | 21:34 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: but I could reprogram that to other key (right control) | 21:34 |
| ztane | TJ-: couldnt find it there either :D this is sucky, the disks were created by ubuntu installation partition resizing | 21:34 |
| ztane | *i mean you can edit C/H/S there but I guess the installer did this with no regard to any C/H/S | 21:35 |
| TJ- | ztane: CHS aren't use; it used LBA | 21:35 |
| TJ- | ztane: but the disk alignment is usually infered from the geometry/size, and defaults to 2048 sector boundaries | 21:36 |
| linuxnewbie22 | So after deleting everything on my flashdrive I have a new problem: Ubuntu isn't recognizing it after I plug it in. | 21:36 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: ok, so if you press c | 21:37 |
| minitrue | while on xev | 21:37 |
| minitrue | what happens? | 21:37 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: as I said, I could reprogram that on ubuntu, so now it works, writes 'c' character in a text editor | 21:37 |
| ztane | I need to use the "last sector" way of entering stuff... | 21:37 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: previously it didn't work | 21:37 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: some other function keys didn't work correctly, but that's not a problem, since my mother won't use them | 21:38 |
| linuxnewbie22 | So my flashdrive disk is sdf and the part is sdf1, but somehow I need to find a way to reformat it. | 21:39 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: is my english is bad? | 21:39 |
| linuxnewbie22 | Including the undeletable content that's still on it. | 21:39 |
| TJ- | ztane sfdisk allows reading a text 'script' file that describes the partitions, you could write that and import it | 21:40 |
| k1l_ | minitrue: he will not solve that ubuntu issue and we cant support windows in here. so its done. | 21:40 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: no, but i want to know if the c works or not | 21:40 |
| TJ- | ztane: if you can 'pastebinit /proc/partitions' I can format it for you | 21:40 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: YES, it works :D | 21:40 |
| ztane | TJ-: and now you say, I think I got it right now :D | 21:40 |
| TJ- | ztane: triple-check :) | 21:41 |
| minitrue | gregtom6: ok if the c works in ubuntu, the c works in the computer, you probably want to ask some guys in #windows or other place like that how to trouble shoot that | 21:41 |
| ztane | :D | 21:42 |
| minitrue | maybe is the keyboard layout, or something like that :P | 21:42 |
| minitrue | but here is probably not the best place | 21:42 |
| ztane | the last partition got automatically the correct size so | 21:42 |
| cliff777 | I installed Ubuntu along side windows 8, and I am not unable to boot into the windows boot loader. Are there any fixes for this? | 21:42 |
| ztane | the extended container isn't at the same position but hardly matters | 21:42 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: I have already said that a few other keys DIDN'T work for now, but that's OKAY | 21:43 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: since my mother WON'T use them | 21:43 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: I mean they don't work in UBUNTU | 21:43 |
| gregtom6 | minitrue: but that's OKAY :) | 21:43 |
| linuxnewbie22 | What do I do if I type df in terminal and it doesn't show my flashdrive there? | 21:44 |
| ztane | (the sda5-sda7 have correct start sectors and sizes) | 21:44 |
| mtn | cliff777, doesn't the linux boot loaded see windows? or is some other problem? | 21:44 |
| TJ- | ztane: as long as it doesn't overlap the previous allocation | 21:44 |
| cliff777 | mtn, there is an error, ill try to get a picture of the output | 21:45 |
| ztane | it doesn't (the fdisk is at least smart enough to detect *that*) | 21:45 |
| cliff777 | mtn, it says it cannot load the image | 21:46 |
| TJ- | ztane: You're sure the partition before the Extended container is the correct size? That'd be the worry, if it was smaller than previously | 21:46 |
| mtn | cliff777, the windows image? maybe something went wrong with the windows install | 21:46 |
| cliff777 | mtn, yes it cannot find the windows image. But windows was installed before ubuntu | 21:47 |
| ztane | TJ-: no, larger | 21:47 |
| mtn | cliff777, run update-grub while in ubuntu, see if it sees windows. then reboot and try again. | 21:47 |
| cliff777 | mtn, will do, thank you | 21:47 |
