| optimus__ | would like to be much involved in linux which programming language should i go for any ideas | 01:52 |
| TJ- | Aqui1a: ALSA = Advanced Linux Sound System. It is the kernel interface/drivers and optional userspace tools such as alsamixer, aplay, alsactl, etc.. PulseAudio is a sound-server; it provides a way to have multiple sound generating applications have their outputs mixed together into a single output device, rather than only one at a time. | 01:53 |

| ken_b | I have a Presario 5750mmx2 Which is actually an HP business desktop. It has ATI realtek Audio built in. Here is the odd thing. It has a built in speaker and jack sensing of all jacks. However plugging into the line out jack on rear panel fails to emit any sounds. It does show speakers and when you choose that you get sound from the built in speaker. Is there a special setting to enable sound to go to the line out rear panel jack so I c | 02:26 |

| mman | Ben64, i used http://omdistro.org. You are right | 02:28 |
| Ben64 | so go to them for support, its not an ubuntu issue | 02:28 |
| OerHeks | ken_b, open terminal: alsamixer # and see if you have sliders MM muted or down | 02:30 |
| === foxx is now known as Guest16624 | ||
| ken_b | Then I also have a more common question. My top DVD rom drive when I put in media will not allow to eject using the drives button. It seems to want to lock in the media. You can go to the media icon on the desktop and choose eject but it would be nicer to just push the drives button instead. | 02:31 |
| seilorr | ken_b, and keep your speakers volume low (physically) while testing - so you will not blow em up | 02:32 |
| ken_b | The speakers are at 1/2 volume that is not the problem of course. | 02:33 |
| seilorr | ;) | 02:33 |
| momentus | lol | 02:33 |
| mman | Ben64, is there a way to tell ubuntu to "forget" that it has to remove that package and continue doing the rest? | 02:33 |

| === xangua1 is now known as xangua | ||
| seilorr | soooo leim......... | 02:36 |
| ken_b | No they work fine if I pug into the headphone jack. Its that something needs to be set to tell it jack sense of the line out. It feels that the internal speakers are always plugged in. I guess my option will be to disconnect the internal speaker from the motherboard and see what happens then. | 02:36 |
| seilorr | ken_b, when you say " jack" im intepreting as youre using " jack" audio server - youre talking about physicall jacks on the cabin? | 02:37 |
| seilorr | " jack audio server/architecture" | 02:37 |
| ken_b | Yes physical jacks not software. | 02:38 |
| seilorr | ah... so its probably youre on ALSA just like OerHeks said above | 02:39 |
| ken_b | It switches to headphone jack ok. and then when you unplug goes back to the internal speaker. | 02:39 |
| seilorr | aham | 02:39 |
| ken_b | Yes I played with ALSA but got nowhere. Now to say this, Windows 10 has no problems but then that is a totally different animal of course. | 02:40 |
| OerHeks | ken_b, does your bios have a soundchip setting, AC'97 and Ati realtek ? turning to AC'97 might solve this | 02:40 |
| OerHeks | it is degrading, i know .. but a work-around for now | 02:41 |
| ken_b | No it has no AC97, just ATI Realtek HD audio onboard. | 02:41 |
| seilorr | think it has to do w/ "dolbies" and "surround" stuff | 02:42 |
| ken_b | No dolby or surround sound thanks. | 02:42 |
| seilorr | ken_b, what r the colors of the holes? r you trying on green? | 02:43 |
| seilorr | its all PL plugs (thin sticks ons) alright? | 02:44 |
| benwilber | how can I get nginx with nginx-rtmp module installed on Ubuntu? packaged nginx doesn't have it | 02:44 |
| seilorr | no RCA stuff involved? | 02:44 |
| seilorr | (thin sticks ones) | 02:45 |
| ken_b | Yes green. This is a software problem but not something that ALSA mixer will compensate for. None of this is a hardware problem just that it does not seem to allow it to switch to the rear panel physical jack because the internal speaker is active. I think again I may try unplugging the internal mono speaker from the motherboard and give that a try. | 02:46 |
| OerHeks | ken_b, what Ati realtek hd exactly ? ' lspci ' should tell | 02:46 |
| seilorr | ken_b, you mean the PC speaker? (boot beep?) | 02:47 |
| ken_b | 00:14.2 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) | 02:47 |
| seilorr | ken_b, do you have a bios interface for the sound chip? - dunno, but think i may offer more options than regular "ON/OFF', since its have fancy auto switching features | 02:48 |
| naseath | @here anyone can help or tell me why ubuntu 14.04 always hang while we open libreoffice, Skype or thunderbird ? | 02:49 |
| seilorr | it | 02:49 |
| seilorr | naseath, dmesged? | 02:49 |
| ken_b | No the pc speaker is soldered to the motherboard. This being a business computer has an actual speaker that plugs into the motherboard and plays multimedia audio. Thus you can play stuff without any speakers plugged into the tower. | 02:50 |
| seilorr | ken_b, ok | 02:50 |
| ken_b | So I will try later to see if the unplug speaker trick works. | 02:51 |
| seilorr | ken_b, good luck | 02:52 |
| ken_b | So now to the only other oddball thing. Why does my top SATA DVD ROM drive want to lock the front panel eject, and how to fix that? The second DVD burner does not lock media into the drive. | 02:52 |
| seilorr | ken_b, it seem "too proprietary hardware" for me | 02:53 |
| seilorr | ken_b, good hacking on that | 02:53 |

| seilorr | ? | 02:54 |

| ken_b | I can opem it by right click on the desktop icon and left click eject. But never using the pushbutton on the front of the drive and only IF media is in the drive. | 03:06 |
| ken_b | The second drive does not do this, it works normally. | 03:06 |

| OerHeks | I don; t know a solution to unlock that drive :-( | 03:08 |

| Silenced | karaZorEl : I tried installing fedora yesterday and after that i am not able to partition my hard drive | 03:55 |
| ken_b | LVM? | 03:56 |
| Bashing-om | Silenced: Are you encountering the 4 primary partition limit of MBR partitioning scheme ? | 03:57 |
| ken_b | Will gparted allow you to resize it? And then add partitions? | 03:58 |
| karaZorEl | Silenced: I dunno, I tried arch and it worked perfect, but ubuntu refuses with an error stating simply it can't partition the drive. Ran S.M.A.R.T. tests on all my drives, reconnected, etc, no dice. :/ | 03:59 |
| Silenced | Bashing-om : Its kind of like mapping and stuff . I dont know exactly . I have only 1 TB hard drive and it shows 2 partition each greater than 920+GB | 03:59 |
| Aqui1a | What time is best to come on here for help? | 04:00 |
| Silenced | And i am not able to perform any operations on any of these partitions | 04:00 |
| karaZorEl | in my case ubuntu will remove partitions, but won't create them on my laptop. it does that then returns an error. it's frustrating. | 04:02 |
| ken_b | Ok moving onward, is there a script one can add to startup to mount an afp share but with a delay of like 1 minute? PcManFM I can bookmark the afp share, and it works fine to open it but I want it to open the bookmark on startup after a slight delay, to allow things to settle down first. | 04:03 |
| Silenced | karaZorEl : Are u running arch now ? | 04:05 |
| ken_b | In other words I want to add the bookmark to the desktop or to AWN but not sure if it can be. | 04:05 |
| Aqui1a | Could somebody tell me if there's another good place I can get help with Ubuntu issues? It seems a bit quiet in here! lol | 04:06 |
| Bashing-om | Silenced: "dmraid" signatures ?? What returns ' sudo dmraid -r -c ' ? On a desk top you will have to install the tool . | 04:07 |
| hrobjartur | hi all | 04:07 |
| hrobjartur | I just set up two monitors, 'extended mode'. | 04:07 |
| hrobjartur | Whenever I hit ctrl-alt-t to open terminal, the new terminal appears on my other monitor, not the one with mouse in view | 04:08 |
| hrobjartur | is there a way to change this behaviour... this also happens when I open webbrowers, it gets sent to wrong window | 04:08 |
| hrobjartur | *monitor | 04:08 |
| ken_b | Grab the window and slide to the other monitor, then close and reopen? | 04:08 |
| hrobjartur | ken_b, hmm lets see. | 04:09 |
| hrobjartur | ken_b, hmm, thats actually working now | 04:10 |
| hrobjartur | ken_b, it appears that I have to have a window open, right now I have xirc | 04:10 |
| ken_b | Apps remember their location and position of last use. | 04:10 |
| hrobjartur | ken_b, it appears that mouse context is not used, unless I have an active window, then new window gets opened on same screen -- otherwise, it opens I guess as you say, wherever it was last time | 04:11 |
| ken_b | Compiz might allow you to alter that. Zorin seems to like to put windows into the open spaces or usually top left on my system. | 04:11 |
| hrobjartur | I have another issue, I have one 1080p monitor, and one 4k monitor. | 04:12 |
| karaZorEl | Silenced: sorry for late response, atm I'm running dual boot win/osx, and ubuntu in vmware. I liked arch and all but it had a few issues for me. | 04:12 |
| hrobjartur | I am able to scale content on 4k monitor in the display settings -- however, this also affects all content - especially fonts- on my 1080p monitor | 04:13 |
| Aqui1a | Good evening. I'm having a persistent issue with my two monitors. No matter how many times I change the settings, they keep switching back to the incorrect setting; the left one behaving as if it's on the right, and the right one behaving as if it's on the left... Each time I restart, that is. Could someone help? | 04:13 |
| hrobjartur | I just skipped it, not useful it seems unless I have only 4k. | 04:13 |
| Silenced | karaZorEl Okay man ! | 04:13 |

| karaZorEl | Can you guys ban unixman, that link was... not even awful, it was beyond that. | 04:19 |
| shamurai | Aqui1a: right... | 04:19 |
| karaZorEl | That should be a permaban. | 04:19 |
| ken_b | I guess I would best to just go to the PcManFM site and ask how to put bookmark to the desktop, which I see no option to do that in PcManFM. | 04:20 |
| shamurai | ken_b: I don't think you can with pcmanfm by itself. | 04:20 |
| Aqui1a | I'm having a persistent issue with my two monitors. No matter how many times I change the settings, they keep switching back to the incorrect setting; the left one behaving as if it's on the right, and the right one behaving as if it's on the left... Each time I restart, that is. Could someone help? | 04:21 |
| ken_b | No you cannot, but well I just want to put the share into startup perhaps with a cron delay, as it works fine otherwise. Just wanting to avoid doing it on every restart. | 04:22 |
| ken_b | Once you open the bookmark, it stays on the desktop. | 04:23 |
| shamurai | ken_b: what distro are you using? | 04:23 |
| Aqui1a | What does it mean if nobody responds to me? Have I been blacklisted? lol | 04:24 |
| shamurai | ken_b: you might try passing --desktop to pcmanfm when you launch it. IE pcmanfm --desktop | 04:25 |
| shamurai | Aqui1a: Are they the same connector type? DVI,HDMI? | 04:25 |
| Aqui1a | shamurai: Nope. However, it's only recently become an issue. It wasn't always like this. | 04:26 |
| Aqui1a | Shamurai: One has a longer connector, the other has a shorter connector. lol I don't know their names. Neither is HDMI. | 04:27 |
| Aqui1a | shamurai: One is DVI and the other is VGA. | 04:27 |
| shamurai | Aqui1a: Try switching the cables. | 04:28 |
| Aqui1a | shamurai: I tried that, and it didn't fix it. | 04:28 |
| ken_b | Wow ok I am way off then, its nautilus not pcmanfm. Sorry too many Linuxes. This is in Zorin not Ubuntu | 04:28 |
| shamurai | Aqui1a: I mean swap the dvi and vga cables between the monitor. | 04:29 |
| Aqui1a | shamurai: The only difference now is that GRUB2 opens on my left monitor instead of my right. | 04:29 |
| ken_b | So I guess try nautilus --desktop? | 04:29 |
| Aqui1a | shamurai: Yes I did that | 04:29 |
| shamurai | ken_b: Nautilus manages the desktop by default. | 04:29 |
| Aqui1a | shamurai: I swapped the connectors on the monitors. That didn't work, so I returned them, and swapped the connectors on the computer itself. Neither attempt fixed it. | 04:29 |
| shamurai | Aqui1a: What distro are you on? | 04:30 |
| Aqui1a | shamurai: 14.04 | 04:30 |
| shamurai | Aqui1a: do you have a nvidia/amd graphics card? | 04:31 |
| Aqui1a | shamurai: I have an NVIDIA GTX 460 | 04:32 |
| shamurai | Aqui1a: what driver are you using? | 04:32 |
| karaZorEl | Aqui1a: did you use nvidia-settings? | 04:33 |
| shamurai | Aqui1a: Yeah try using nvidia-settings instead of the built-in | 04:34 |
| topdugz | karaZorEl: like why | 04:34 |
| Aqui1a | shamurai: I'm using 346.82 from nvidia-346 (proprietary, tested), which I believe are the recommended drivers | 04:35 |
| === hrobjartur is now known as hroi50 | ||
| Aqui1a | shamurai, karaZorEl: I've tried using nvidia-settings. I applied settings and saved to xorg.conf (or w/e the file's called) and it still didn't remember. | 04:36 |

| lizhi | no no no | 05:33 |

| somsip | magnolia_: read this then. Refers to earlier version of ubuntu, but specifically to HP. Maybe some clues in here but I don't have time to read it for you https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-settings-daemon/+bug/1282649 | 06:17 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1282649 in unity-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) "Unable to make screenshot with <PrintScreen> key in Unity session in Trusty" [High,Fix released] | 06:18 |

| magnolia_ | KingOfOOP: http://askubuntu.com/questions/218961/software-cant-be-installed-or-removed-because-the-authentication-service-is-no | 06:18 |
| magnolia_ | somsip: page suggested by you says fix released but how to install the fix and from where ? the page is too technical for me | 06:23 |
| somsip | magnolia_: As I said, I don't have time to read it for you. I've given you a reasonable lead so you may have to research from there | 06:24 |
| magnolia_ | somsip: also its a surprsie if its an old bug coz I never had this problem with older ubuntu releases, never | 06:24 |
| magnolia_ | somsip: yes, just tell me from where to download it, rest I'll read everything | 06:25 |

| Ben64 | KingOfOOP: line 27 is bad | 06:33 |
| Ben64 | also 40, 41, 66, 69, 71 and maybe more | 06:33 |
| KingOfOOP | Ben64: Why ? | 06:34 |
| Ben64 | because those aren't for ubuntu | 06:34 |
| KingOfOOP | !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 06:34 |
| KingOfOOP | What ?!!! | 06:34 |
| Ben64 | spoiler - debian isn't ubuntu | 06:34 |
| KingOfOOP | What to do now ? | 06:35 |
| KingOfOOP | @Ben64 | 06:35 |
| Ben64 | i'd say remove all the non-ubuntu repositories, don't know why you added them | 06:35 |
| magnolia_ | remove extra sources and update again | 06:35 |
| KingOfOOP | magnolia_: Which extra sources | 06:36 |
| KingOfOOP | ? | 06:36 |
| magnolia_ | debian, drdteam etc | 06:36 |
| derthi | Hi, I want to extract a file from an archive called a.tar.gz, located at results/output.png to the directory I'm in (i.e., if I run the command from home/user/Documents I want the file to be at home/user/Documents/output-renamed.png). Current attempts results in extraction to home/user/Documents/results/output.png ( tar --extract --file=a.tar.gz -C / results/output.png ) | 06:36 |
| KingOfOOP | Ben64: Which ones ? | 06:36 |
| Ben64 | what magnolia said | 06:36 |
| KingOfOOP | magnolia_: drdteam was for installing Slade , Zdoom , etc... | 06:37 |
| magnolia_ | KingOfOOP: first remove them and update and install any app from software centre and see if it works, solve install problem first then look for others | 06:38 |
| KingOfOOP | ok | 06:38 |
| KingOfOOP | magnolia_: Cant uncheck some of them ... | 06:39 |

| Aqui1a | Hello, I need help.. again.. I've tried to update to 15.04, but I'm having what seems a serious issue. Towards the end of the upgrade, the screen went black, with lines of text appearing every few seconds. This is still happening... :( What do I do? | 07:05 |
| KingOfOOP | How to update my ubuntu to latest version ? Mine is 14.04 | 07:07 |
| hadi | Hello everyone | 07:09 |
| minitrue | KingOfOOP: you cant upgrade from 14.04 to 15.10 with apt-get upgrade, you first have to upgrade to 14.10 and then to 15.04 | 07:09 |
| KingOfOOP | minitrue: How ? | 07:10 |
| === mystic is now known as srini | ||
| minitrue | KingOfOOP: in system settings you have to go to software and updates | 07:10 |
| somsip | KingOfOOP: common advice is to stick with LTS unless you have a specific reason to jump to a non-LTS | 07:10 |
| minitrue | then in your updates tab in " notify me of new ubuntu version" select for any new version | 07:11 |
| Logan | somsip: maybe for servers | 07:11 |
| somsip | Logan: no, it's common advice given here to all users | 07:11 |
| Logan | not sure how I feel about that | 07:11 |
| minitrue | after that select software updater from dash | 07:11 |
| minitrue | and then is like a regular upgrade | 07:12 |
| minitrue | first to non lts (14.10) | 07:12 |
| KingOfOOP | somsip: isn't 15.04 LTS ? | 07:12 |
| KingOfOOP | Ubuntu has a bug . Links gets deleted after reboot. | 07:12 |
| minitrue | KingOfOOP: nop | 07:13 |
| somsip | KingOfOOP: no, 14.04 is current, 16.04 will be next | 07:13 |
| minitrue | 14.10 is not longer supported :P so once you upgrade to 14.10 you should immediately upgrade to 15.04 | 07:14 |
| KingOfOOP | magnolia_: Gave me errors after almost 230 get command | 07:17 |
| magnolia_ | paste | 07:18 |
| KingOfOOP | magnolia_: I think it was a connection error | 07:26 |
| magnolia | ok, try again | 07:28 |

| Aqui2a | makara: Nothing is making any sound lol Youtube, VLC, system sounds... nothing. | 07:51 |
| Aqui2a | makara: In Sound settings, there is only one device listed in output devices, and it's not my onboard sound card, which it was prior to upgrading. And now, I have no devices in Input. | 07:52 |
| makara | Aqui2a, what do your sound setting look like? Is there a device in "Play sound through" | 07:52 |
| makara | i see | 07:52 |
| Aqui2a | :) | 07:52 |
| Aqui2a | makara: It's bloody annoying... I've had so many issues, that when I try to fix them, it just causes more xD | 07:53 |
| Aqui2a | makara: So yeah, no sound devices. No sound at all. | 07:53 |
| makara | Aqui2a, if it's not your onboard sound card, what is it? | 07:54 |
| Aqui2a | makara: HDMI/DisplayPort - Built-in Audio | 07:54 |
| makara | so it wants to play through your screen | 07:55 |
| leeyaa | hello | 07:56 |
| leeyaa | i think default Ubuntu script for Nginx does not detect when deamon has not started | 07:56 |
| leeyaa | https://bpaste.net/show/b1f1f246800b | 07:57 |
| leeyaa | i've only removed the /dev/null part from do_start to see the error | 07:57 |
| makara | Aqui2a, nothing comes to mind. Try https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems | 07:57 |
| leeyaa | can anyone advice how to fix it ? | 07:57 |
| Aqui2a | makara: I will do, thanks | 07:57 |
| leeyaa | it breaks my scripts as currently it does not return proper error code | 07:57 |
| leeyaa | os is 14.04lts | 07:59 |
| Ben64 | leeyaa: doesn't look like the right way to start it | 08:00 |
| leeyaa | Ben64: how come i just execute /etc/init.d/nginx start | 08:00 |
| JustMozzy | Good morning. Can anyone help me setup a VPN client with l2tp over ipsec? | 08:00 |
| leeyaa | same thing happens with default version, it suppresses the error, returns 0 and nginx is not up | 08:01 |
| Ben64 | leeyaa: get out of root and back to your user, then do 'sudo service nginx start' | 08:01 |
| leeyaa | Ben64: im executing it only as root | 08:01 |
| Ben64 | ok so you didn't listen to me at all | 08:01 |
| leeyaa | https://bpaste.net/show/c543fc666218 | 08:02 |
| leeyaa | why would i need to run it as regular user ? | 08:02 |
| Ben64 | you might want to check what sudo does | 08:03 |
| leeyaa | dude it will happen the same thing | 08:03 |
| leeyaa | ok ill do that now | 08:03 |
| k1l_ | leeyaa: (2: No such file or directory) | 08:04 |
| k1l_ | isnt that clear? | 08:04 |
| leeyaa | k1l_: i know why it is not starting. my question is why the init.d script does not return error code, instead it returns 0 for no error | 08:04 |
| leeyaa | besides it prints the error only because ive removed /dev/null redirection | 08:05 |
| charllie | Hello guys I ve got one simple question is the page theodinproject.com is reliable and will teach me well the web developing ? | 08:05 |
| k1l_ | !ot | charllie | 08:08 |

| Aqui2a | makara: Those didn't help. My sound still doesn't work. | 08:08 |
| leeyaa | Ben64: there you go https://bpaste.net/show/a7565dbc0d1b | 08:08 |

| ubottu | The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 08:08 |
| leeyaa | deamon is not up, init.d script returns 0 | 08:08 |
| k1l_ | leeyaa: seems to be a common nginx issue | 08:09 |
| leeyaa | k1l_: it is init.d script issue... | 08:09 |
| leeyaa | meaning /etc/init.d/nginx is missing proper error handling | 08:10 |
| Desu | systemd is so much nicer | 08:12 |

| guillaume_s | Hi everyone | 09:36 |
| guillaume_s | i would like to install Ubuntu on an IBM server Power5, does anyone have some knowledge about this ? | 09:37 |
| cfhowlett | !server | guillaume_s | 09:37 |
| ubottu | guillaume_s: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide - Support in #ubuntu-server | 09:37 |
| vlt | guillaume_s: Did you have any problems so far? | 09:38 |
| guillaume_s | I know quite well ubuntu and linux but i have never installed it on a server yet, i'd like to know the overall process | 09:38 |
| guillaume_s | which version to choose and just how to stat | 09:38 |
| guillaume_s | start | 09:38 |
| cfhowlett | guillaume_s, thus my suggestion to see the SERVER channel | 09:38 |
| guillaume_s | oh didn't see, thanks | 09:39 |
| chronodekar | guillaume_s: you could try to install on a virtualbox environment if you just want to experiment | 09:39 |

| mssmss | how do I remove the list of users in the shutdown menu in edubuntu | 09:40 |
| vlt | Slightly !ot, but can anyone explain to me what the actual difference between a computer running Ubuntu and a "server" is? | 09:41 |
| vlt | What makes a server a server? | 09:41 |
| sikio | vlt: it's configured to act as a server? | 09:41 |
| sikio | as in it does things that a server does | 09:42 |
| cfhowlett | vlt, final use and no gui. servers tend to me used for specific duties, e.g. mail server | 09:42 |
| vlt | sikio, cfhowlett: I know. But what does the question “I want to install Ubuntu *on a server*?” mean? | 09:45 |
| k1l_ | vlt: the setup and the use makes it a server. desktop and server do share the same packages and kernel on ubuntu | 09:45 |
| k1l_ | vlt: cli install, for example | 09:45 |
| cfhowlett | vlt, servers don't have all the pretty graphics and gui stuff. they can even be "headless" or remote. quite a different scenario than most desktop users are accustomed to. | 09:46 |
| vlt | Ok, but there’s no real difference in hardware, is it? What makes a "server CPU" (like Intel Xeon) a server CPU? | 09:47 |
| Ben64 | more appropriate for ##hardware | 09:48 |
| soyos | note that the same machine can act both as a desktop and a server - depending on what programs you have running. Ubuntu just offers a prepackaged non-gui server by default.. | 09:48 |
| k1l_ | vlt in hardware there is a lot difference like fallback power supply or ECC ram etc. but that is far beyond the ubuntu support | 09:48 |

| magnolia | black screen with or without msg kernel panic and caps lock light blinking with nothing working -- how to avoid this and how to fix it when it happens ? I've seen this many times that too almost on all editions of ubuntu | 10:32 |

| hateball | magnolia: run a memtest, smartctl your drive etc | 10:33 |
| magnolia | hateball: how ? | 10:33 |
| hateball | magnolia: you can use for instance the install media and choose to run a memtest instead of trying/installing | 10:34 |
| magnolia | hateball: you mean live ? | 10:34 |
| Desu | someone should write a memtest that actually works on modern hardware too :/ | 10:34 |

| rohan_Kanojia | Okay. | 10:47 |
| bishops | is there a way to get letters on libreoffice to appear slightly more separated? | 10:48 |
| magnolia | Ben64: it happened once and all my work got lost, did it again for checking and same, so posting here | 10:48 |
| rohan_Kanojia | when i run dosfsck -a /dev/sdb1 | 10:48 |
| rohan_Kanojia | i get fsck.fat 3.0.26 (2014-03-07) open: Read-only file system | 10:48 |
| Ben64 | rohan_Kanojia: fsck doesn't format. if you want to format open gparted | 10:49 |
| magnolia | btw, if next time your network stops working then you should stop using your network, I think thats not an answer for "do not suspend" | 10:49 |
| rohan_Kanojia | i've tried gparted and mkfs, they give same errors | 10:49 |
| rohan_Kanojia | Can you suggest any other alternative? | 10:50 |
| Ben64 | some hardware doesn't play nice with suspend, suspend isn't necessary, don't leave stuff not saved when going into suspend, don't go into suspend | 10:50 |
| Ben64 | rohan_Kanojia: gparted wouldn't give the same error | 10:50 |
| rohan_Kanojia | Can it be fixed? By the way, It is a Sandisk pendrive | 10:50 |
| rohan_Kanojia | yes it is giving the same error | 10:50 |
| Ben64 | try it now and show me | 10:51 |
| magnolia | if it happens then how to fix it ? had the same problem with firefox memory leaks in previos verions of ubuntu | 10:51 |
| rohan_Kanojia | Should i post screenshot? | 10:51 |
| Ben64 | magnolia: what does firefox have to do with suspend? | 10:51 |
| Ben64 | rohan_Kanojia: yes | 10:51 |
| rohan_Kanojia | How can i share that image with you? | 10:51 |
| Ben64 | upload to imgur.com or a similar host of your choosing | 10:51 |
| rohan_Kanojia | wait let me do it again | 10:52 |
| hateball | rohan_Kanojia: does the drive have some physical switch? I've seen some that do | 10:52 |
| magnolia | Ben64: suspend is a new thing which is reproducing the problem but firefox takes a lot of memory 1-2 gb and after sometime it creates the same problem | 10:52 |
| Ben64 | magnolia: so when i asked if it only happened when suspending and you said yes, you lied | 10:53 |
| hateball | magnolia: So do a memtest | 10:53 |
| rohan_Kanojia | here it is | 10:54 |
| rohan_Kanojia | https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9QSbghQENTLXzgwSTRaWDZzWGM/view?usp=sharing | 10:54 |
| magnolia | Ben64: currently its only happening with suspend and I wrote several times about firefox.....read above | 10:54 |
| Ben64 | asked you thrice even, and you didn't tell the truth | 10:54 |
| rohan_Kanojia | Drive has't got any physical switch | 10:54 |
| magnolia | Ben64: "CURRENTLY" only happening with suspend but "BEFORE" it has happened "SEVERAL" times on "PREVIOUS" versions of ubuntu using "FIREFOX" | 10:55 |
| daftykins | you can't use " like that :) | 10:55 |
| magnolia | Ben64: I think for more you should check english language classes and logs.ubunt.com | 10:56 |
| EriC^^ | lol | 10:56 |
| Ben64 | rohan_Kanojia: unplug the drive, wait a little, plug it back in, pastebin the output of "dmesg | tail -n50" and "sudo hdparm -Ii /dev/sdb" | 10:56 |
| * EriC^^ slides Ben64 coffee and yummy treats | 10:57 | |
| Ben64 | magnolia: i guess i was using this outdated definition of "only" -- ˈōnlē/ adverb: only 1. and no one or nothing more besides; solely or exclusively. | 10:57 |
| rohan_Kanojia | ok | 10:58 |
| EriC^^ | lol | 10:58 |
| rohan_Kanojia | dmesg has given a huge output | 10:59 |
| rohan_Kanojia | Should i paste it here? | 10:59 |
| auronandace|work | rohan_Kanojia: not directly, use a pastebin please | 11:00 |

| rohan_Kanojia | what broken? can you please elaborate? | 11:07 |
| Ben64 | uh. the drive is no more, it has ceased to be | 11:07 |
| daftykins | the drive is dead. | 11:07 |

| daftykins | PD? | 11:08 |
| rohan_Kanojia | Pen drive | 11:08 |
| Ben64 | phlash drive | 11:08 |
| daftykins | then your friend is in the market for a new one | 11:08 |
| rohan_Kanojia | lol | 11:08 |
| Ben64 | according to the sandisk site, can return it for a new one perhaps | 11:08 |
| rohan_Kanojia | <Ben64> Can you tell me the lines which tell that USB stick is broken | 11:09 |
| rohan_Kanojia | I've to tell it to my friend. | 11:09 |
| Ben64 | well you see the second paste the weird lines that aren't readable? | 11:09 |
| rohan_Kanojia | Yeah in the begining | 11:09 |
| Ben64 | yeah that should be in english | 11:09 |
| rohan_Kanojia | That are supposed to be in English? | 11:10 |

| rohan_Kanojia | Okay! So it is a hardware error. | 11:15 |
| rohan_Kanojia | And it is not solvable. | 11:15 |

| rohan_Kanojia | I thought i could reformat it with any of linux's low level formatting tool | 11:16 |
| hateball | rohan_Kanojia: you could always try in a different computer before you smash it to bits | 11:16 |
| magnolia | rohan_Kanojia: is it very old ? | 11:16 |

| tnkhanh | I want to install something like libxcb-xinput | 11:24 |
| hateball | rohan_Kanojia: :) | 11:25 |
| MonkeyDust | tnkhanh "something like libxcb-xinput"? | 11:25 |
| magnolia | anyways, when kernel panic occurs then how to fix it ? | 11:25 |
| Bundestrojaner | hi! how can i use a serial port as user in kubuntu? | 11:26 |
| Bundestrojaner | googleresults said, i have to be in group dialout, but it still doesn't work | 11:26 |
| hateball | magnolia: Kernel panic is game over. Run a memtest, check your drives for errors. | 11:27 |
| tnkhanh | I installed libxcb-image (contains libxcb-image.so), libxcb-xkb (contains libxcb-xkb.so) and libxcb-shm (contains libxcb-shm.so) | 11:27 |
| BluesKaj | 'Morning folks | 11:28 |
| tnkhanh | now the program says it requires xinput component of XCB which means the file libxcb-xinput.so but I couldnt find it | 11:28 |
| MonkeyDust | tnkhanh start from the beginning, what are you doing and what brings you here... in one line | 11:28 |

| zetheroo | how can I logout a user account via command? | 11:31 |
| tnkhanh | zetheroo, type "logout" or "exit" | 11:34 |
| tnkhanh | kind of obvious :p | 11:34 |
| tnkhanh | or do you mean out of the GUI | 11:35 |
| tnkhanh | that I don't know | 11:35 |
| zetheroo | tnkhanh: sorry, I meant logout another user ... but I think I found the solution with "who -u" and then kill the PID of the user session - thanks | 11:35 |
| vuurdraak | hi all, I have mounted my ntfs partition with the "permissions" option: ntfs-3g defaults,auto,users,permissions,exec,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=002 0 0 // and in windows i have seen a new guid of unknown user, telling something did happen, but in linux i can not chown or chmod the files, all permissions stay the same, anybody has a clue what could be going wrong ? | 11:35 |
| tnkhanh | zetheroo, nice | 11:35 |
| Bundestrojaner | how can i use a serial port as user in (k)ubuntu? I'm already in group dialout but it still doesn't work... | 11:36 |
| Bundestrojaner | (it's connected over Usb) | 11:36 |
| hateball | Bundestrojaner: weird, that should "just work", if it's some usb device that mounts to /dev/ttyUSB0 or something | 11:37 |
| gravida | hi guys. i ve an issue can someone help me? | 11:37 |
| EriC^^ | gravida: what's up? | 11:37 |
| gravida | i dont just bring up issues before i search but i coulnt find a workaround | 11:37 |
| gravida | so i thought i need some live help | 11:37 |
| gravida | about my video driver | 11:38 |
| gravida | i am using 15.04 upgraded from 14.04 | 11:38 |
| Bundestrojaner | hateball: /dev/ttyUSB0 is it. when i start cutecom with sudo, it works | 11:38 |
| gravida | i ve ati hd6770. want to use fglrx or fglrx updates. but when i install then from additional drivers they wont activate | 11:39 |
| EriC^^ | gravida: what do you mean by they don't activate? | 11:39 |
| gravida | fglrxinfo output indicates it still uses mesa | 11:39 |
| Bundestrojaner | hateball: it works now, wtf?? | 11:39 |
| Bundestrojaner | it didn't work for weeks *facepalm* | 11:39 |
| gravida | i tried many times to revert it to defaults and reinstall fglrx but no success | 11:39 |
| hateball | Bundestrojaner: :D | 11:40 |
| Bundestrojaner | and i didn't change anything | 11:40 |
| EriC^^ | ok, i don't know much about video issues, you might need to blacklist the other one i guess, somebody will chime in hopefully | 11:40 |
| EriC^^ | gravida: ^ | 11:40 |
| Bundestrojaner | hateball: thx anyway :) | 11:40 |
| hateball | Bundestrojaner: well I dont know, for me it's always "just worked" so I guess I wouldnt be of much help | 11:40 |
| gravida | i am glad you listened to it. thank you anyway | 11:40 |
| gravida | is there anyone know how to fix ? | 11:40 |
| magnolia | prt-sc button not working, ctrl+ and shift+ also, surprisingly alt+prt-sc working, how to fix it ? | 11:40 |
| vuurdraak | magnolia, are you sure you have the correct keyboard layout loaded for your keyboard , instead of some default one ? | 11:41 |
| magnolia | xev gives response on alt+prt-sc but not on prt-sc alone or ctrl+/shift+ | 11:41 |
| magnolia | vuurdraak: its 15.04 vivid default one | 11:41 |
| magnolia | tried settings/keyboard/shortcuts and its fine | 11:42 |
| vuurdraak | maybe you need to find out if your keyboard needs a differnt layout | 11:42 |
| EriC^^ | gravida: try to repeat your question in one line every so often | 11:42 |
| magnolia | vuurdraak: ok, then suggest something | 11:43 |
| vuurdraak | magnolia, i dont know what keyboard you got :) | 11:43 |
| vuurdraak | if it's some special keyboard with extra buttons other then default us, it might need a special layout | 11:44 |
| magnolia | vuurdraak: its hp pavilion g6 series model 1200tu with whatever keyboard it got | 11:44 |
| magnolia | vuurdraak: btw the same keyboard worked totally fine in previous versions of ubuntu | 11:44 |
| gravida | i ve upgraded my 14.04 to 15.04 recently, i was using fglrx drivers with no problem(ati hd6770) but now it seems to disabled somehow. fglrxinfo output shows mesa drivers is active. i tried to revert to default and reinstall fglrx many times and no success so far. is there anything should i try? | 11:45 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: oh, i have an hp pavilion g6 and the same thing used to happen, printscreen with only alt worked, it works now though | 11:45 |
| EriC^^ | which ubuntu are you using? | 11:45 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: you are the first person who is using the same crap other than me, sounds nice :D | 11:46 |
| EriC^^ | lol | 11:46 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: currently 15.04 vivid, worked totally fine in all previous versions of ubuntu | 11:47 |
| EriC^^ | it's actually quite nice, the battery life sucks though, i get like 2 hours | 11:47 |
| vuurdraak | magnolia, i hand you over to our expert on hp keyboards EriC^^ :) | 11:47 |
| EriC^^ | lool no expert at all | 11:47 |
| vuurdraak | i can only see countries in the keyboard settings, no special hp thingies | 11:47 |
| EriC^^ | ah wait, i'm actually using an external keyboard right now cause i spilled coke on the hp one and it went kaboom | 11:47 |
| EriC^^ | so that might be why it's working | 11:47 |
| vuurdraak | there is ur solution :) trash the ho keyboard xD | 11:48 |
| EriC^^ | lol | 11:48 |
| magnolia | vuurdraak: lol thnks for handing (passing) me over to experts | 11:48 |
| vuurdraak | hp* | 11:48 |
| MonkeyDust | EriC^^ same here, i spilled coffee, tho | 11:48 |
| vuurdraak | so magnolia just spill cofee on the keyboard and get a new one xD | 11:48 |
| EriC^^ | :D | 11:48 |
| vuurdraak | maybe hp it self has some layouts for linux, i'm betting that it needs some special layout or the problem will persist | 11:49 |
| magnolia | vuurdraak: I thought hp doesn't supports linux at all | 11:50 |
| vuurdraak | ah :( | 11:50 |
| magnolia | I mean officially | 11:50 |
| BluesKaj | niether does MS , but my MS KB works on linuix :-) | 11:51 |
| magnolia | come on folks, provide some solution, ppl are watching you experts | 11:51 |
| BluesKaj | linux even | 11:51 |
| vuurdraak | lol | 11:51 |
| vuurdraak | im a gamer :D | 11:51 |
| vuurdraak | i can tell u precisly how to install world of tanks in ubuntu :P | 11:51 |
| BluesKaj | experts ?, usually KBs are just PnP, seldom any problem with them | 11:52 |
| vuurdraak | i got my keyboard from the garbage for €0 :) | 11:52 |
| ThothCastel1 | why am I unable to send a message to a channel ##linnux | 11:52 |
| magnolia | it requires registration ThothCastel1 | 11:53 |
| vuurdraak | maybe it's #linux ? | 11:53 |
| vuurdraak | I have mounted my ntfs partition with the "permissions" option: ntfs-3g defaults,auto,users,permissions,exec,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=002 0 0 // and in windows i have seen a new guid of unknown user, telling something did happen, but in linux i can not chown or chmod the files, all permissions stay the same, anybody has a clue what could be going wrong ? | 11:53 |
| magnolia | ohh, your spelling is wrong --> its linux and not liNNux | 11:53 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: any ideas ? keyboard fix ? not coffee | 11:54 |
| vuurdraak | cola ? | 11:54 |
| vuurdraak | xD | 11:54 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: no idea | 11:54 |
| magnolia | come on... | 11:54 |
| magnolia | its broadcom wireless chipset is also pain | 11:55 |
| MonkeyDust | magnolia try this command sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration | 11:55 |
| magnolia | any better drivers than bcmwl-kernel-source ? EriC^^ | 11:55 |
| vuurdraak | special keyboards always need special drivers/layouts , because they send out differnt codes for the key presses, unless you are going to capture them and reroute them to a standard format or something | 11:55 |
| ThothCastel1 | it's ##linux I can see everyone's message but when I try and send a message I get a Cannot send to channel | 11:56 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: no idea, what does xev give you right now right prntscreen? | 11:56 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: try xmodmap -e "keycode 107=Print" | 11:57 |
| ThothCastel1 | magnolia: how to register? | 11:58 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: xev gives response to alt+prt-sc but nothing for prt-sc alone or ctrl+/shift+prt-sc | 11:58 |
| magnolia | ThothCastel1: you register to server and not channel | 11:58 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: what's xmodmap -pke look like? | 11:58 |
| ThothCastel | thanks magnolia - works now | 12:00 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: a long list for xmodmap -pke | 12:00 |
| EriC^^ | gravida: try dpkg -l | grep "linux-headers\|fglrx" and paste it in paste.ubuntu.com | 12:00 |
| magnolia | MonkeyDust: your command gives a window which doesn't lists my laptop model | 12:00 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: can you pastebin it? | 12:01 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: how to paste full output ? only 1 page visible | 12:01 |
| gravida | EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12327904/ | 12:01 |
| magnolia | how to directly paste to pastebinit ? | 12:02 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: type xmodmap -pke | pastebinit | 12:02 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: pastebinit needs to be installed ? | 12:02 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: yeah | 12:02 |
| EriC^^ | gravida: type uname -r | 12:03 |
| cfhowlett | magnolia, or use the built-in nc option ps -x | grep xchat nc termbin.com 999 nc termbincom 9999 will pipe the output to a paste url | 12:04 |
| gravida | EriC^^, 3.16.0-48-generic | 12:04 |
| EriC^^ | gravida: ok, type sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-generic | 12:04 |
| gravida | trying right now | 12:04 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12327920/ | 12:05 |
| gravida | should i reboot after it? | 12:05 |
| EriC^^ | gravida: no | 12:05 |
| EriC^^ | type sudo apt-get purge fglrx* | 12:05 |
| EriC^^ | then sudo apt-get install fglrx | 12:05 |
| magnolia | cfhowlett: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ ps -x | grep xchat nc termbin.com 999 grep: nc: No such file or directory grep: termbin.com: No such file or directory grep: 999: No such file or directory ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ ps -x | grep xchat nc termbin.com 999 nc termbincom 9999 grep: nc: No such file or directory grep: termbin.com: No such file or directory grep: 999: No such file or directory grep: nc: No such file or d | 12:07 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: ok, and xev gives no keycode for printscreen? | 12:07 |
| gravida | EriC^^, can use: sudo apt-get install fglrx-updates instead? | 12:07 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: no for prt-sc button alone and with shift+ or ctrl+ but it responds to alt+prt-sc | 12:08 |
| gravida | i want to use catalyst 15.07 if possible? | 12:08 |
| cfhowlett | magnolia, sorry, gotta add one line ps -x | grep xchat | nc termbin.com 9999 | 12:08 |
| magnolia | cfhowlett: I dont have xchat, will it still work ? | 12:08 |
| magnolia | I'm on webchat | 12:08 |
| cfhowlett | magnolia, xchat is just to demonstrate how to paste a command. use it to paste whatever you need | 12:09 |
| Desu | ps -c is a thing | 12:09 |
| cfhowlett | magnolia, functionally the same as pastebinit | 12:09 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: maybe you could use another button or combo for it | 12:09 |
| Desu | sidenote | 12:09 |
| EriC^^ | using xbindkeys | 12:09 |
| Desu | xchat is dead, stop using it, if you want something similar to xchat that is actually maintained then use hexchat | 12:10 |
| * EriC^^ will use xchat until the end of time | 12:10 | |
| cfhowlett | +1 for hexchat | 12:10 |
| gravida | EriC^^, would it be a problem if i install fglrx-updates instead? (last command you offered) | 12:10 |
| EriC^^ | gravida: no | 12:10 |
| gravida | ok i will reboot and rejoin the channel to report in. | 12:11 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 12:11 |
| magnolia | xmodmap -e "keycode 107=Print" no use | 12:12 |
| EriC^^ | yeah it's already set, but it doesn't see when you press prntscrn | 12:12 |
| EriC^^ | what does ctrl+prntscreen do? | 12:13 |
| EriC^^ | i can't find where it's saving them O.o | 12:13 |
| magnolia | nothing with ctrl+prt-sc, even with shift+ nothing | 12:14 |
| magnolia | alt+prt-sc working | 12:14 |
| EriC^^ | i mean what is it supposed to do | 12:14 |
| EriC^^ | it just makes a snapshot noise here and nothing gets saved anywhere | 12:14 |
| magnolia | you need paint to paste your screenshot, it copies screenshot to memory EriC^^ | 12:15 |
| EriC^^ | ohh | 12:15 |
| EriC^^ | i see | 12:15 |
| loa | can somebody please explain me my output of "dkms status" http://pastebin.com/bJZ2qjwt why there no information about modules for my current kernel? you can see that i have nvidia module for my kernel, what i miss? | 12:15 |
| EriC^^ | magnolia: maybe you could set another combo key to Print as a temporary fix | 12:16 |
| EriC^^ | like some 2 keys next to eachother, if you press them together you get printscreen too | 12:16 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: thats not a solution but an ostrich approach | 12:16 |
| EriC^^ | lol i dunno how to fix it, just an idea | 12:17 |
| EriC^^ | until you get it sorted out or something | 12:17 |
| ioria | have uou tried xmodmap -e "keycode 107 = Sys_Req" ? | 12:17 |
| magnolia | EriC^^: no, its good if its really necessary for ex. incase of webpages which redirect very quickly | 12:17 |
| vuurdraak | loa, your latets kernmel you are running does not have the modules | 12:18 |
| magnolia | no but tried --> xmodmap -e "keycode 107=Print" | 12:18 |
| magnolia | with no use | 12:18 |

| EriC^^ | gravida: cool, no problem! | 12:18 |
| vuurdraak | loa, the modules listed are for all your older kernels, but the new kernel your running there are no modules listed for it | 12:18 |
| nick_name333 | My Dell Precision M3800 has Ubuntu 14.04 | 12:19 |

| vuurdraak | with me it lists modules for the current kernel, and i dont see them in ur past bin, maybe you could try uninstalling the driver and try installing again | 12:22 |

| daftykins | nick_name333: you bought it from Dell, i would recommend using their support options | 12:22 |

| ioria | magnolia, can you paste xmodmap -pk | grep Print ? | 12:27 |
| daftykins | if you're manually installing from the nvidia website then you should be comfortable with how to deal with it on kernel updates :P | 12:27 |
| magnolia | ioria: xmodmap -pk | grep Print | pastebinit ? | 12:27 |
| ioria | magnolia, yep | 12:28 |
| loa | daftykins, i did not installed it manually and problems exists whith another modules too | 12:28 |

| vuurdraak | nice | 12:41 |
| vuurdraak | yeh it's a know bug | 12:41 |
| vuurdraak | loa, they need to go past all drivers to fix them one at a time | 12:41 |
| loa | known? | 12:41 |
| daftykins | you shouldn't use -f with rm if not necessary | 12:41 |
| magnolia | ioria: prt-sc button along with shift+ and ctrl+ are working but alt+ not as reassigning it is showing as level3 shift | 12:41 |
| loa | and what is the problem? | 12:42 |
| daftykins | it's simply foolish | 12:42 |
| vuurdraak | keep an eye on kernel updates, and expand the console to see if the driver is installed properly , else u need to do it again after every kernel update | 12:42 |
| magnolia | the one which was working alone previously is not working now ioria | 12:42 |
| vuurdraak | loa, some ubuntu bug, they fixed it for the newest drivers and are going down the list as far as i know | 12:42 |
| loa | daftykins, yeah you are right, it is from old past, when i started learning linux | 12:42 |
| daftykins | tut tut! | 12:43 |
| loa | i can't get why dkms don't see my modules, all files are in place... what changed? | 12:43 |
| loa | maybe there are some permission problems? | 12:43 |
| loa | or somethings? | 12:43 |
| vuurdraak | loa, i think the modules are somehow not properly configured when a new kernle is set | 12:44 |
| loa | vuurdraak, i think i found something | 12:44 |
| vuurdraak | loa, i had to reinstall the drivers every kernel update before, till i switched to newer drivers | 12:44 |

| k1l_ | skinux: ubuntu-desktop will install unity | 13:00 |
| hateball | !pureunity | 13:00 |
| hateball | hmm | 13:00 |
| loa | vuurdraak, so problem was with this... when you compile something with dkms you need use arch, first i use this command sudo dkms build -m uvesafb_scale -v 0.1 -k kernel-3.13.0-63 | 13:00 |
| loa | vuurdraak, but right variant is sudo dkms build -m uvesafb_scale -v 0.1 -k kernel-3.13.0-63/x86_64 | 13:00 |
| loa | after that dkms status work right | 13:01 |
| skinux | I already have Unity, but KDE is also installed and I want to remove "kubuntu" completely, having only "Ubuntu", and I might even switch to something lighter-weight in the future. | 13:01 |

| vooze | loa: how do I do that? It works fine on my laptop with Intel Wifi. | 13:04 |
| hateball | KCmetro: I am not sure what brasero uses as the backend, but k3b will use wodim and it should work | 13:05 |
| loa | vooze, maybe defaults for that driver are lower then on you intel wifi driver | 13:05 |
| ioria | magnolia, i set alt+e, for example | 13:05 |
| skinux | Why is there a tmp directory in my home directory? | 13:05 |
| loa | vooze, dunno, try to google it using name of driver and "transmit power" or maybe "tx power" | 13:05 |
| KCmetro | hateball: Thanks for input, I'm not familiar with k3b or wodim ...googling... | 13:06 |
| hateball | KCmetro: k3b is a gui burning app | 13:06 |
| hateball | KCmetro: you can install it from the software center | 13:06 |
| KCmetro | excellent | 13:06 |
| vuurdraak | EriC^^, & Pici, maybe the problem is that I'm in my own group: A different set of ACE’s is built when the owner is an administrator because in this situation owner, group and administrator are the same, so redundant ACE’s have to be defined. A similar situation arises when the user and the group have the same identification, requiring a third set of ACE’s (see limitations.) | 13:06 |
| KCmetro | so k3b is a gui for wodim? | 13:07 |
| BluesKaj | KCmetro, yes it's a KDE gui | 13:07 |
| KCmetro | ohhh | 13:07 |
| KCmetro | hmmm ok | 13:07 |

| skinux | Well, I thought it was just additional libraries, but I just had to reinstall software-center. | 13:36 |
| illskillz | is google not private enough for you? | 13:36 |
| illskillz | how much onedrive costs? | 13:37 |
| goddard | illskillz: gooogle says it is allowed to use your content how it wants | 13:37 |
| TJ- | skinux: if you removed 1 or more of software-center dependencies, the package maanger is forced to remove the packages that depend on the removed package | 13:37 |
| skinux | Yeah. Now I have Software Center, Lubuntu Software Center, and App Grid. | 13:38 |
| illskillz | i thought microsoft says same thing | 13:38 |
| skinux | goddard: Don't all online office suites do that? | 13:38 |
| illskillz | liek new windows running inside your anus scanning feces | 13:38 |
| TJ- | skinux: this is why using the command-line to control the package-manager, and reading what it tells you it wants to do careful, is always a good thing | 13:38 |
| TJ- | !language | illskillz | 13:39 |
| ubottu | illskillz: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 13:39 |
| skinux | Okay..so I now have 4.6GB free disk space...is that enough to make Ubuntu all-around happy? | 13:39 |
| === omnik5570 is now known as omnik5569 | ||
| illskillz | mkay | 13:39 |
| goddard | skinux: that is what i was trying to figure out | 13:39 |
| imbezol | what's the channel for ubuntu 15.10? | 13:39 |
| skinux | TJ: Well, I didn't think Software Center would left me remove something unsafely without warning. | 13:39 |
| hateball | imbezol: #ubuntu+1 | 13:40 |
| TJ- | skinux: As I've told you repeatedly; it's not the amount of free space, it's the percentage. For users to be able to write to a file-system it needs to have more than 5% free. At 5% free only privileged users (root) can write to the file-system | 13:40 |
| imbezol | thx | 13:40 |
| skinux | Is there really a channel just for 15.10? | 13:40 |
| illskillz | if you really care about privacy, cloud services are not for this case | 13:40 |
| TJ- | skinux: #ubuntu+1 | 13:40 |
| skinux | Oh... pre-release versions | 13:40 |
| hateball | TJ-: to be fair, one could tune2fs and lower that % | 13:40 |
| illskillz | I always thought public clouds were for liek more public things liek to share not private things | 13:41 |
| TJ- | hateball: I know, but shhhh! Don't tell skinux else he'll kill the system again! | 13:41 |
| illskillz | good thing lamers do not know that | 13:41 |
| hateball | TJ-: haha oops | 13:41 |
| skinux | Man...fu..... | 13:41 |
| illskillz | it's september, is there 15.10 already? | 13:42 |
| illskillz | will my 15.04 self-update? | 13:42 |
| TJ- | hateball: The original issue was after a package upgrade the user couldn't log-in... after a couple or more days we eventually tracked it down via ~/.xsession-errors because there was a 'failed to write' to log message. | 13:42 |
| hateball | I see | 13:43 |
| TJ- | illskillz: Release of 15.10 Wily Werewolf will be towards the end of October | 13:43 |
| TJ- | hateball: 95% in use on a 59GiB file-system | 13:43 |
| idemuso | 2 releases per year x.04 and x.10 | 13:43 |
| idemuso | LTS once every 2 years -even number years ergo we are all waiting for 16.04 | 13:44 |
| idemuso | :-D | 13:44 |
| guillaume_s | re | 13:44 |
| TJ- | idemuso: I do hope all the regressions in 15.10 get ironed out in time! | 13:44 |
| idemuso | oh well... | 13:44 |
| skinux | Is Nepomuk Backup the best backup software? | 13:44 |
| illskillz | how the sys updater works? will it update 15.04 up to 10 | 13:44 |
| illskillz | ? | 13:44 |
| idemuso | I dont even bother reviewing the non LTSes | 13:44 |
| TJ- | illskillz: User's usually get a notification when a new release is available, depending on their softare center settings | 13:45 |
| idemuso | to be honest though I did look at 15.04 and there was nothing impressive about it | 13:45 |
| TJ- | idemuso: biggest change in 15.10 is the move to gcc 5 | 13:46 |
| illskillz | what impressive there must be in OS to impress i wonder now | 13:46 |

| illskillz | that is jetty service obviously | 13:50 |

| Bashing-om | Knight80: 1st is to insure that the system is up-2-date, and the package manager is happy . What returns ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo apt-get -f install ' ? | 14:53 |
| MonkeyDust | Knight80 what's in /etc/apt/sources.list ? use a pastebin | 14:54 |

| ttyk | Can anyone help me? | 14:56 |
| MonkeyDust | ttyk start with a question | 14:56 |
| Knight80 | MonkeyDust http://pastebin.com/23rdsiUA | 14:57 |
| topmot | nick_name333 start with installing W7 then install ubuntu -> your life will be so much easier | 14:57 |
| ttyk | ive got problem with connecting wifi router via internet cable ;c | 14:57 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om sudo apt update is working | 14:58 |
| nick_name333 | topmot: I already have ubuntu installed on the computer though. | 14:58 |
| SchrodingersScat | nick_name333: windows will likely take over the bootloader, gotta be ready for that, backups etc. | 14:59 |
| === gbell1 is now known as gbell | ||
| Knight80 | Is 'sudo apt-get update' the same as 'sudo apt update'? | 14:59 |
| Bashing-om | Knight80: So far so good. 15.04 is the install, and sources.list is default. Let's see the 3rd party stuff ' tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | pastebinit ' . | 15:00 |
| SchrodingersScat | Knight80: different programs afaik | 15:00 |
| topmot | nick_name333 my advice: back up your data and your config files and your whole drive separately. Make an ubuntu recovery cd. Install W7 (will probably destroy grub / efi) on a separate partition. Use ubuntu recovery CD -> try to recover GRUB etc. if it fails reinstall ubuntu. | 15:00 |
| Bashing-om | Knight80: "apt' has been revamped and updated from "apt-get" . | 15:00 |
| idelo | nick_name333: its better to install windows first, I think if you want to install over ubuntu, you'll do a complicated procedure | 15:00 |
| nick_name333 | how do i get rid of ubuntu, its "GRUB" bootloader (which I don't know much about) and install win7 fresh? | 15:01 |
| MonkeyDust | nick_name333 first win, then lin ... windows would ruin your grub menu and you'd come here for help to repair grub | 15:01 |
| nick_name333 | what bootloader do I need, and how do I get it? | 15:02 |
| topmot | nick_name333 : just install W7 from the CD it will take over the bootloader automatically. | 15:02 |
| MonkeyDust | nick_name333 do you want dual boot? | 15:02 |
| eugenio_ | hi every body, I just reinstalled ubuntu 15.04 however on reboot I got error: no such device: XXXXXXXXXXX Entering rescue mode... | 15:02 |
| eugenio_ | any hints? | 15:02 |
| MonkeyDust | nick_name333 keep it in the channel | 15:03 |
| eugenio_ | I followed a lot of guide, but no results...crying!!! | 15:03 |
| nick_name333 | (just type your name first, then my message?) | 15:03 |
| topmot | nick_name333 yes | 15:04 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: You're at the "grub rescue>" command line? | 15:04 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: yes | 15:04 |
| nick_name333 | So I need to just finish making my Ubuntu ISO bootable stick, then plug in my Win7 stick, overwrite everything with Win7, and start again? | 15:04 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: type 'set' and tell us what the values of "root=" and "prefix=" are | 15:05 |
| chatango | im back with disk recover | 15:05 |
| nick_name333 | And then its much simpler to get Ubuntu afterwards (I definitately need Ubuntu also) | 15:05 |
| topmot | nick_name333 probably the fastest way yes | 15:05 |
| nick_name333 | LOL I see myself coming back here soon with many more questions! | 15:05 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: root=hd0 prefix=(hd0)/boot/grub | 15:06 |
| topmot | nick_name333 if you do it that way then almost everything i self explanatory. Ubuntu installs itself nicely next to any WIN os. | 15:06 |
| chatango | instead doing ddrecover is there way to just serch for especific files or directories. like home and files like *.js and *.html | 15:06 |
| topmot | nick_name333 windows however will steamroll any existing os. | 15:06 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: OK, now type 'ls' (LiSt) and tell us what is reported | 15:07 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om http://paste.ubuntu.com/12328881/ | 15:07 |
| chatango | fsck recovered 1 pasrtition but not the one i need | 15:07 |
| Bashing-om | Knight80: look'n at your http://paste.ubuntu.com/12328881/ . | 15:07 |
| eugenio_ | (hd0) (hd1) (hd1,gpt2) (hd1,gpt1) | 15:07 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: (hd0) (hd1) (hd1,gpt2) (hd1,gpt1) | 15:08 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om Ok, thank you :) | 15:08 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: OK, hd0 is a disk with no partitions. hd1 is a disk with 2 GPT partitions. Does that sound liek your system? | 15:08 |
| Knight80 | It's a mess, isn't it? | 15:09 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: I know I have sda1 and sda2 | 15:09 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: Do you know which of sda1 and sda2 has the OS installed in? | 15:09 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: on the installation I set sda1 as / and sda2 as /home | 15:09 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: sda1 surely | 15:10 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: YAY! OK, here's how to fix this boot: "set root=hd1,gpt1)" then "set prefix=(hd1,gpt1)/boot/grub" | 15:10 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: Typo! "set root=hd1,gpt1" then "set prefix=(hd1,gpt1)/boot/grub" | 15:10 |
| Bashing-om | Knight80: OK, ingalex is no longer supported .. last support was 'raring' / see: http://ppa.launchpad.net/ingalex/super-boot-manager/ubuntu/dists/ . As I continue looking . | 15:10 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: sda1 has been formatted whereas sda2 were not formatted, I would like to use the same home I had before | 15:11 |
| Shogo | in 15.04, who controls the cpu fan speed by default? | 15:11 |
| jost | On a 14.04.3 server, I apt-get update does not work. I get lots of lines like this: "W: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-security/universe/binary-amd64/Packages 503 Service Unavailable [IP: 91.189.91.15 80]" | 15:11 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: at this point we're not concerned with the /home/ all we are doing is helping the GRUB boot-loader find the files it needs to start Linux. After Linux starts you can sort out the rest. | 15:11 |
| jost | downloading the data using wget works, disabling the firewall does not make a difference | 15:11 |
| jost | but there are more firewalls in front of the server... | 15:12 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: now do "ls $prefix/" and you *should* see some files listed from the OS file-system, amongst them we want to see "grub.cfg" | 15:12 |
| Bashing-om | Knight80: Next " /kxstudio-debian/libs/ubuntu lucid " Mixing distro and as well a real old repo is a formula for disaster. | 15:12 |
| nick_name333 | Sorry if this question is too Windowsish: I can only find my 32-bit copy of Win7 right now. If I install using that, then get Ubuntu running, will I be able to overwrite just the Win7 partition with the 64-bit version at a later date (when I find the other damn stick)? | 15:12 |
| maddawg2 | nick_name333, yes | 15:13 |
| MonkeyDust | nick_name333 no windows support in this channel | 15:13 |
| maddawg2 | but depends how you install ubuntu | 15:13 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om I see | 15:13 |
| maddawg2 | if you install it on a seperate partition then you should be able to reinstall windows 7 on the other partition with no issue | 15:13 |
| testerbit | It seems ubuntu does not keep emacs 24.4 on apt-get, a server I use is running emacs 24.3, what is the simplest way for my sys admin to update to emacs latest stable (not an emacs user)? | 15:14 |
| nick_name333 | maddawg2 ok, what do I need to know? Which way should I install Ubuntu? | 15:14 |
| maddawg2 | just dont install ubuntu inside Windows 7 | 15:14 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om What do you suggest me doing? | 15:14 |
| nick_name333 | Oh right, yeah that's cool. Thanks | 15:14 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: i see it | 15:14 |
| maddawg2 | nick_name333, before you install windows partition the drive | 15:14 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om I would like to clean all that stuff | 15:14 |
| maddawg2 | nick_name333, do you know how to use gparted to partition the drive? | 15:14 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: Fab! do "insmod normal" then "normal" and you should get the GRUB boot menu | 15:15 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: yes!!!!!! you are great!!!! | 15:15 |
| Laurenceb | hi | 15:15 |
| nick_name333 | maddawg2 The other people told me to let Windows "steamroll" everything and install its own bootloader etc. Then during the Win7 installation, create my partitions, and put Win7 on one of them. | 15:15 |
| Laurenceb | how can I reset the usb subsystem? | 15:15 |
| nick_name333 | maddawg2 i.e. don't use GParted | 15:15 |
| Laurenceb | I've lost all my usb ports | 15:16 |
| maddawg2 | nick_name333, well you can do it that way... i always use gparted | 15:16 |
| Bashing-om | Knight80: Still looking, and I take back my last, kxstudio-debian looks to be legit. | 15:16 |
| maddawg2 | but that's just preference | 15:16 |
| maddawg2 | so yea during windows install make two partitions | 15:16 |
| maddawg2 | select one that you want to install windows 7 to | 15:16 |
| maddawg2 | then after win7 is installed put a ubuntu disk or usb flash drive in | 15:17 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: once it has booted, first thing to do is to identify the drive letter of the root file-system: "mount | grep '/ ' " then do "sudo grub-install /dev/sdX1" *replace X with the drive letter* then "sudo update-grub" | 15:17 |
| maddawg2 | and boot from it, and do an install like you nromally would but during the HD selection process select the partition you createed in windows 7 | 15:17 |
| maddawg2 | make sure you select the partition that doesnt have windows on it obviously | 15:17 |
| maddawg2 | now when you get the 64-bit version you can just overwrite the first parttion | 15:18 |
| Aqui1a | Hey guys. I upgraded to 15.04 last night, and it made a problem I had even worse. At the time, no input devices were detected. Now, no input OR output devices are detected. | 15:18 |
| maddawg2 | tho i will say i'm not sure if you are gonna have to fix the bootloader when done | 15:18 |
| maddawg2 | aquilia does your monitor work? | 15:18 |
| nick_name333 | maddawg2 people say it's much easier to get ubuntu running when starting out with Win7, than the other way around. | 15:18 |
| maddawg2 | nick_name333, seems about the same to me | 15:19 |
| maddawg2 | depends which bootloader you are using tho | 15:19 |
| maddawg2 | Grub or Windows | 15:19 |
| maddawg2 | you will have to edit the bootloader to have the windows partition | 15:19 |
| maddawg2 | but thats pretty simple | 15:19 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: I did mount | grep '/' and a list of directories, what should I do? | 15:20 |
| ahmed__ | hi all, please I have a problem with virsh on ubuntu | 15:21 |
| nick_name333 | just to be clear, I need to use my Win7 stick to "steamroll" ubuntu out of existence, then follow the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot | 15:21 |
| ahmed__ | I need qemu_system-x86-64 but I did not find it in the virsh capabilities | 15:22 |
| maddawg2 | nick_name333, yes so you need two partitions | 15:22 |
| ahmed__ | anyone could help with virsh issues on ubuntu ? | 15:23 |
| compdoc | ahmed__, if you have a 64bit cpu and 64bit ubuntu, qemu will be 64bit | 15:23 |
| ahmed__ | yes mine is that | 15:23 |
| ahmed__ | and I found qemu 64 bit exists in /usr/local/bin folder | 15:23 |
| compdoc | what are your issues? | 15:24 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om I'm trying to remove Google Earth repository as well | 15:24 |
| ahmed__ | but when I do virsh capabilities , I didnot find it in the guests | 15:24 |
| compdoc | whats the command you use? I'll try it | 15:24 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: on sudo grub-install /dev/sda1 I got this output: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12328969 | 15:24 |
| ahmed__ | virsh capabilities | 15:25 |
| Aqui1a | Sorry maddawg2, I missed your message. My monitor does work. :) | 15:25 |
| compdoc | <arch name='x86_64'> | 15:25 |
| compdoc | I have several guests. some are 32bit, and some 64 | 15:26 |
| ahmed__ | yes I do not have at the guests <arch name='x86_64'> | 15:26 |
| zykotick9 | TJ-: does eugenio_ have some reason to install grub to a partition vs. MBR? | 15:26 |
| ahmed__ | I have it only at the host | 15:26 |
| TikityTik | I'm having issues trying to connect to my VPN server via wifi over ubuntu, my connection keeps getting reset. | 15:27 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: Sorry, my typo! do "sudo grub-install /dev/sdX" *replace X with the drive letter* then "sudo update-grub" | 15:28 |
| TikityTik | is there a proper guide on setting up an ubuntu openvpn client for connecting to the internet? | 15:28 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: What a time for the screen-locker to crash and block me :) | 15:28 |
| nick_name333 | My startup disk creator is working at making a bootable USB of the Ubuntu install ISO. It's been hanging on 96% for ages, is this normal? | 15:28 |
| Laurenceb | hi, how can i restart usb? | 15:29 |
| Aqui1a | Could someone please help me with my sound issue? D: | 15:29 |
| genii | nick_name333: You should leave it until it either completes successfully, or completes with some error that can be examined | 15:29 |
| Laurenceb | can anyone help me restart usb? | 15:30 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: no problem, I gave then grub-install and I got: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12329022 | 15:31 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om Are you still looking? | 15:32 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: the second command: update-grub gave me: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12329029 | 15:33 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: is this correct? | 15:33 |
| nick_name333 | I'm in my BIOS setup. I can't find a way to change the list of priorities for booting - there's only 1 option - called "[ubuntu]". What about my memory stick? | 15:35 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: OK, the first one shows a problem. I'm not sure how you managed to install Ubuntu on BIOS/GPT and not create a BIOS Boot Partition. | 15:36 |
| Fjorgynn | Hello | 15:36 |
| nick_name333 | There's "Add Boot Option" | 15:36 |
| Fjorgynn | I've got a problem. When I use pavucontrol/pulseaudio I can't hear my speakers | 15:36 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: I suspect the system only booted because GRUB is installed to the first few sectors of the other drive, the one GRUB saw as (hd0) | 15:36 |
| maddawg2 | nick_name333, i dont know your bios | 15:37 |
| nick_name333 | But under Add Boot Option> USB > there's many options <.disk>, <boot>, <casper>,...autorun.inf, md5sum.txt, wubi.exe... Which one do I choose so that my laptop will "see" the bootable ISO I just made? | 15:37 |
| nick_name333 | For ubuntu | 15:37 |
| maddawg2 | but most computer have a hotkey (like F12) that you can press to get into a boot device menu | 15:37 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: The grub-install errors talking about 'blocklists' means that GRUB could find no safe location to write its 'core.img'. On GPT we usually have a BIOS Boot Partition of about 1MB to hold that. Is there any spare space on sda ("sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda") ? | 15:38 |
| maddawg2 | nick_name333, what do you mean? | 15:38 |
| TikityTik | is there a proper guide on setting up an ubuntu openvpn client for connecting to the internet? | 15:38 |
| nick_name333 | OK sorry I got it. F12 - now I have the right menus etc... "try ubuntu without installing", "install ubuntu"... thanks | 15:38 |
| maddawg2 | TikityTik, a client or a server? | 15:39 |
| nick_name333 | I mainly just wanted to check that my stick worked OK, since I'm going to be overwriting Ubuntu with Win7 soon. | 15:39 |
| maddawg2 | you need a server to c onnect to befroe you can use the client TikityTik | 15:39 |
| TikityTik | maddawg2: I've setup a server, but I'm having issues with my client. | 15:40 |
| TikityTik | maddawg2: I keep getting connection reset when I'm using my VPN over wifi. | 15:40 |
| Knight80 | How come I can still see repos in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ if I erased them with Ubuntu Software Centre? | 15:40 |
| TikityTik | maddawg2: so it keeps restarting the connection | 15:40 |
| maddawg2 | TikityTik, that sounds like an issue with your wifi | 15:40 |
| maddawg2 | does it work over wired? | 15:41 |
| TikityTik | maddawg2: I'm using wifi at my school | 15:41 |
| TikityTik | maddawg2: it works over wired | 15:41 |
| maddawg2 | then it's the wifi | 15:41 |
| TikityTik | maddawg2: well how can I get it to work with this wifi? | 15:41 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: this is the output: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12329083 | 15:41 |
| maddawg2 | TikityTik, no idea what wifi you are using or how the school has it configured | 15:41 |
| TikityTik | me neither, but what can I do? | 15:42 |
| wildc4rd | anyone had any luck getting Netflix to work on ubuntu? | 15:42 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: actually I think there is just 1 Mb before sda1 | 15:42 |
| sienez | I have a dual boot windows/ubuntu set up. Now I want to reinstall Windows. I remember reading somewhere that it is recommended to install Linux after Windows in dual boot setup because windows overwrites grub entries. is that still true? | 15:42 |
| maddawg2 | TikityTik, probably not much... | 15:42 |
| maddawg2 | TikityTik, you can try it on another Wifi at another location | 15:42 |
| maddawg2 | verify it works there | 15:42 |
| maddawg2 | then if it does it verifies that something is up with the school's network | 15:42 |
| maddawg2 | TikityTik, are you able to connect at all? | 15:43 |
| Bashing-om | Knight80: Ouch ! Per: http://kxstudio.linuxaudio.org/Documentation:Manual:installing_kxstudio ; What you have there is a professional level operating system, NOT a mere application. In my humble opinion will take someone familiar with that operating system to assit you. The best I can say - feeble - is to fresh install . | 15:43 |
| maddawg2 | because another possibility is that they block the port your vpn server and client connect on | 15:43 |
| TikityTik | maddawg2: I tried changing it to TCP 443, it connects to websites | 15:44 |
| TikityTik | but the connection keeps restarting | 15:44 |
| Bernzel | Is there any chance that "sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean" would remove something important? Or personal files? | 15:45 |
| TikityTik | thus there's a delay as eachtime the connection restablishes | 15:45 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: Hmmm, you have a few problems there. The easiest to fix is that partition #1 should be type 0x8300, not 0xEF00. The harder problem is you need to find 1MiB of space (2048 sectors) to create another partition of type 0xEF02 (BIOS Boot). If you can do that, then 'grub-install' will be successful. | 15:45 |
| maddawg2 | Bernzel no | 15:45 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om I'm just trying to delete the repositories I don't need | 15:45 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: I have to leave now; someone else should be able to help if you get unstuck. | 15:45 |
| Bernzel | maddawg2, good thanks! | 15:45 |
| maddawg2 | TikityTik, then there might be something your school is doing | 15:45 |
| maddawg2 | i cant tell you for sure tho | 15:45 |
| maddawg2 | all i can do is say to test it on another wifi and see if it works | 15:46 |
| eugenio_ | TJ-: I just have this space free | 15:46 |
| maddawg2 | if it works there then you'll know the problem is with the school | 15:46 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om I mean, I installed an DAW called Ardour, and I needed to add kxstudio repositories | 15:46 |
| Knight80 | a DAW, sorry | 15:46 |
| maddawg2 | alternatively you can try another vpn service like Private Internet Access... that's what i use everywhere i go | 15:46 |
| TJ- | eugenio_: someone might be able to help you shrink sda1 and the file-system inside it by say 2MiB ( best to have more space than less) to create a gap between sda1 and sda2 where you can put the BIOS boot partition | 15:46 |
| maddawg2 | helps me bypass my school's and works' filters | 15:47 |
| Knight80 | I'm on Ubuntu 15.04 | 15:47 |
| maddawg2 | TJ- he can use gparted to do that | 15:47 |
| eugenio_ | maddawg2: hi, do you mean gparted from live session? | 15:48 |
| Knight80 | So you don't recommend me to install repositories from older Ubuntu versions? | 15:49 |
| auronandace | Knight80: never mix repos from different releases, it will break your system | 15:50 |
| Knight80 | auronandace Thank you | 15:50 |
| sienez | is there a way to boot into ubuntu without grub available? I have a dual boot windows/ubuntu and I want to reinstall windows, which will overwrite grub. so what to do? | 15:50 |
| auronandace | sienez: you can reinstall grub afterwards | 15:51 |
| auronandace | !grub | sienez | 15:51 |
| ubottu | sienez: 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 | 15:51 |
| maddawg2 | you can do that OR you can use the windows bootloader | 15:51 |
| maddawg2 | but you'll have to modify it's entries manually | 15:52 |
| maddawg2 | i prefer grub tho | 15:52 |
| Knight80 | auronandace Will you please help me removing ppa's? | 15:53 |
| Knight80 | 'sudo apt-get update' returns the error 404 | 15:53 |
| Knight80 | And it does not complete the task | 15:53 |
| auronandace | !ppapurge | Knight80 | 15:53 |
| ubottu | Knight80: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 15:53 |
| Knight80 | auronandace That's what I'm trying to do | 15:54 |
| auronandace | Knight80: i never use ppas so all i can do is point you to that above factoid sorry | 15:54 |
| sienez | auronandace, thanks. so all I need is a bootable drive with ubuntu on it and then I run it in try-out mode to repair grub? | 15:54 |
| Bashing-om | Knight80: I do regret - in a limited way - that with kxstudio as a operating system it is way above my abilities to advise on how to remove it . And even if one could remove it, I highly doubt that the resulting operating system would be functional. | 15:55 |
| auronandace | sienez: essentially yes | 15:55 |
| sienez | auronandace, great, now I just need to figure out how to do that with only 1 usb stick available.. thanks for your help :) | 15:56 |
| Knight80 | Bashing-om Are you telling me my OS is not Ubuntu? | 15:58 |
| Knight80 | Just asking... | 15:58 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, easy enough to test. open a terminal: cat /etc/issue | nc termbin.com 9999 | 15:59 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett http://termbin.com/14sa | 16:00 |
| cfhowlett | seems like legit ubuntu | 16:00 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett That's what I'm telling Bashing-om, I've got Ubuntu with kxstudio repositories installed | 16:01 |
| eugenio_ | I have a few problems. My partition #1 should be type 0x8300, not 0xEF00. The harder problem is you need to find 1MiB of space (2048 sectors) to create another partition of type 0xEF02 (BIOS Boot). If I can do that, then 'grub-install' will be successful, anybody can help me? | 16:01 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, then you mixed repos --- not recommended for many reason. | 16:01 |
| cfhowlett | !gparted | eugenio_ | 16:01 |
| ubottu | eugenio_: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 16:01 |
| arcsky | encrypt your harddrive what program do you guys recommend? | 16:02 |
| cfhowlett | !encryption | arcsky | 16:03 |
| ubottu | arcsky: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory | 16:03 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett Nothing seems to go wrong... | 16:03 |
| auronandace | Knight80: dependencies will go wrong, very wrong | 16:03 |
| cfhowlett | this ^^^ | 16:04 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett So, I shouldn't install any ppa's at all? | 16:04 |
| auronandace | Knight80: mixing repos is a sure fire way to break your system, unfortunately it isn't really something you undo | 16:04 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, it's one thing to add a ppa (unsupported) it's a whole different level of pain to mix repos. | 16:04 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett I just installed kxstudio's ppa | 16:05 |
| Knight80 | It's a ppa after all, am I right? | 16:05 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, yep. they are supposed to support it. | 16:06 |
| rymate1234 | Just installed fglrx on my laptop with AMD / Intel hybrid graphics - the drivers seem to work fine when using a single screen, but when I use my second monitor the output seems to be , massively offset - see this image http://images.rymate.co.uk/images/lat0b7F.jpeg | 16:06 |
| ioria | eugenio_, it'a a fresh install ? nothing on it ? | 16:06 |
| Knight80 | What do you recommend me to do, then? | 16:07 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, depends on your goal. making music? sudo apt install ubuntustudio-music otherwise, download and install kxstudio or artistx | 16:08 |
| cfhowlett | or fedora-jams | 16:08 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett But... ubuntustudio-music is another distro's package, isn't it? | 16:09 |
| cfhowlett | !studio | Knight80 | 16:09 |
| ubottu | Knight80: UbuntuStudio is a collection of packages for the artist who wishes to use Ubuntu as their Digital Audio Workstation. It contains all the best Audio/Visual components from the Ubuntu repositories. For more info and install instructions, join #ubuntustudio or see http://ubuntustudio.org | 16:09 |
| wildc4rd | anyone had any luck getting Netflix to work through chrome on ubuntu? | 16:10 |
| eugenio_ | ioria: the / is a fresh install, /home I used the once I had before | 16:10 |
| tgm4883 | wildc4rd: uh, it just works? | 16:10 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett So I have to start from scratch, I should reinstall the whole OS again, right? | 16:11 |
| auronandace | !netflix | wildc4rd | 16:11 |
| ubottu | wildc4rd: If you use Netflix, there is an unofficial solution for using it in Ubuntu detailed in http://www.compholio.com/netflix-desktop/ - bug reports in https://bugs.launchpad.net/netflix-desktop | 16:11 |
| arcsky | ubottu: i want to encrypt full drive | 16:11 |
| ubottu | arcsky: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 16:11 |
| underyodr | wildc4rd: I think You need it mimicking it's on windows | 16:11 |
| arcsky | cfhowlett: i want to encrypt full drive | 16:11 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, for the sake of your sanity, yes clean install ubuntu | 16:11 |
| cfhowlett | arcsky, I've not done an encryption, can only point to that factoid | 16:12 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett And then ubuntustudio-music? | 16:12 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, yes you can add the ubuntustudio-music metapackage to a plain vanilla ubuntu | 16:13 |
| auronandace | Knight80: or you could just get the ubuntu studio iso | 16:13 |
| digs | I am curious how I can update my 12.04 system but keep the currently installed major version of php. We have a legacy application that I must support for another 9 months and I can't move beyond php 5.3.x - Maybe first, I should know how to tell what version of apt-get upgrade will install? | 16:14 |
| cfhowlett | digs, test it. apt-get -s upgrade will demo the coming attractions without installation | 16:15 |
| somsip | !info php5 trusty | digs (if you go from LTS to LTS, you will have to pin 5.3.10) | 16:15 |

| cfhowlett | digs, test it. apt-get -s dist-upgrade >>> 12.04.4 | 16:15 |
| digs | Thank you guys. | 16:15 |
| digs | how do I "pin" v5.3.10 ? | 16:15 |
| auronandace | digs: 12.04 is supported until 2017 so you don't need to upgrade before your 9 months are up | 16:16 |
| cfhowlett | !pin | digs | 16:16 |
| ubottu | digs: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 16:16 |

| Bashing-om | cfhowlett: Knight80 Per: http://kxstudio.linuxaudio.org/Documentation:Manual:installing_kxstudio ; kxstudio is much more than a simple PPA .. I read it that a Operating System will be installed ? Do I miss-understand ? | 16:19 |
| ubottu | digs: php5 (source: php5): server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage). In component main, is optional. Version 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.19 (precise), package size 1 kB, installed size 21 kB | 16:19 |
| cfhowlett | Bashing-om, that's what I read as well! | 16:19 |
| digs | I have created an instance copy so if things are foobar I can just delete and start over. | 16:19 |
| digs | Thanks for the prompt info all. | 16:19 |
| cfhowlett | Bashing-om, I recall a tutorial to add the repos to ubuntu, but I think that was unofficial | 16:19 |
| Knight80 | How do I install that META-package then? | 16:19 |
| Bashing-om | cfhowlett: K; I do feel the better in my recomendation of a clean fresh install . | 16:19 |
| thevaliantx | #raspberrypi | 16:20 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio | 16:20 |
| Knight80 | ok | 16:20 |
| Knight80 | sorry for my ignorance | 16:20 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, and you ARE adding this to a clean install of ubuntu, right? | 16:20 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett Not yet, I was just testing | 16:21 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett Do you know ardour? | 16:21 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, fair enough. test like this: apt-get -s install ubuntustudio-audio will tell you what's coming | 16:22 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, I've know OF ardour, but never used it. audacity has satisfied my needs | 16:22 |
| Lara_ | ? | 16:23 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett Sorry about my bad english... | 16:24 |
| Lara_ | Hello, Lara here | 16:25 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, no need to apologize at all! happy2help! and for the record, I've lived in Beijing for over 3 years. the most fluent thing I can say in mandarin is "I don't speak Mandarin." | 16:25 |
| cfhowlett | Lara_, ask your ubuntu question | 16:25 |
| === erwin_ is now known as easyOnMe | ||
| easyOnMe | hi fellas | 16:28 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett So you think my english is bad, hahaha | 16:28 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett :) | 16:28 |
| Knight80 | I'm spanish | 16:28 |
| easyOnMe | hi cfhowlett | 16:28 |
| cfhowlett | what can I say Knight80. I'm an english teacher. | 16:28 |
| cfhowlett | easyOnMe, greetins. | 16:28 |
| easyOnMe | just asking how do I get rid of these pop ups whenever I browse something on the internet | 16:28 |
| thevaliantx | cfhowlett, those who do ... do. those who don't ... lol | 16:28 |
| easyOnMe | I just noticed this happening today | 16:29 |
| cfhowlett | easyOnMe, firefox has plugins to block popups | 16:29 |
| Lara_ | I just update my ubuntu 14.04 to 14.10 v | 16:29 |
| OerHeks | easyOnMe, use a popup plugin, many browsers have them in a store | 16:29 |
| Lara_ | and graph environment not works anymore | 16:29 |
| cfhowlett | Lara_, then you updated to a no longer supported versoin. unwise. | 16:29 |
| auronandace | Lara_: 14.10 is no longer supported | 16:29 |
| easyOnMe | OerHeks: I am using google's chromium on linux | 16:30 |
| Lara_ | wtf | 16:30 |
| Lara_ | if its a newer version | 16:30 |
| easyOnMe | will there be anything like that for chromium on linux | 16:30 |
| cfhowlett | Lara_, no need for that kind of language. | 16:30 |
| Lara_ | sry* | 16:30 |
| auronandace | Lara_: 14.04 is an LTS release, 14.10 was not | 16:30 |
| auronandace | !lts | 16:30 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) | 16:30 |
| fellayaboy | what do you get lara | 16:30 |
| fellayaboy | your graphic environment doesnt work? | 16:30 |
| Lara_ | yes | 16:31 |
| Lara_ | i can control alt f1 and log in via console | 16:31 |
| fcanela | hi, #ubuntu. I suggested this channel to Lara_ | 16:31 |
| Lara_ | but need my graph env. | 16:31 |
| OerHeks | easyOnMe, sure. use the chrome webstore, there are many, choose the one you like best | 16:31 |
| fcanela | as long as he explained me by phone, seems like xorg is unable to find a screen | 16:31 |
| cfhowlett | Lara_, 14.10 is end of life and no longer supported. install a supported version; 14.04, 15.10 or 12.04 | 16:31 |
| fellayaboy | Lara_, i pmed you | 16:31 |
| fcanela | tried to locate the xorg.conf but seems ubuntu changed way too much since last time I had to dig on this | 16:31 |
| OerHeks | !pm | 16:32 |
| ubottu | Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. | 16:32 |
| thevaliantx | anyone in here use Raspberry PI2? | 16:32 |
| Lara_ | hi fcanela ty | 16:32 |
| daftykins | thevaliantx: can you ask the actual question? | 16:33 |
| auronandace | thevaliantx: if you want to run ubuntu on that you may want the arm channel | 16:33 |
| auronandace | !arm | thevaliantx | 16:33 |
| ubottu | thevaliantx: ARM is a specific (RISC) processor architecture used in a variety of applications such as handhelds and networkdevices. For more information see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM . For ARM specific support, stop by the #ubuntu-arm channel. | 16:33 |
| Lara_ | so how can i upgrade a newer version? | 16:33 |
| cfhowlett | !eolupgrade | Lara_, or download the .iso and clean install | 16:33 |
| ubottu | Lara_, or download the .iso and clean install: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 16:33 |
| thevaliantx | daftykins, i did ask the actual question, lol .... if someone says "hey, i use raspberry pi" then i have additional questions ;) | 16:34 |
| daftykins | thevaliantx: no - you're just wasting peoples time like that, if you asked the NEXT question - that's how things work around here. However i second the suggestion of the ARM channel. | 16:34 |
| cfhowlett | thevaliantx, for future reference : https://inkscape.org/media/cms_page_media/56/ask-smart-questions.pdf | 16:35 |
| Lara_ | I dont care if I lose any file or smthing. Im just want to format it with last version. But the problem is i cant boot from usb or dvd. I 've already the .iso downloaded and burned in a usb and a dvd | 16:35 |
| thevaliantx | isn't the Arduino associated with ARM? | 16:35 |
| daftykins | thevaliantx: that's not a relevant point of discussion here. | 16:35 |
| OerHeks | Lara_, really? how did you install ubuntu now? | 16:35 |
| Lara_ | so, any way to update version via console? | 16:36 |
| thevaliantx | daftykins, i'm just going to sit back and lol at you. It would say more than anything I could say ;) | 16:36 |
| Lara_ | yes, 3hs of my life lost since I updated | 16:36 |
| cfhowlett | Lara_, yes in the previously sent wiki: eolupgrade. it really helps to read the resources people send you | 16:36 |
| Lara_ | oh, missed it | 16:36 |
| cfhowlett | !eolupgrade | Lara_ | 16:37 |

| fcanela | how did you burnt it, Lara_ ? | 16:37 |
| daftykins | thevaliantx: ok you enjoy that then. perhaps when you come back you can realise that this is an ubuntu support channel :) | 16:37 |
| fellayaboy | Lara_, i would go here and perform the commands at the bottom | 16:37 |
| fellayaboy | http://askubuntu.com/questions/491018/unity-on-14-10-desktop-issue-after-dist-upgrade | 16:37 |
| Lara_ | I did it fewtimes before, is well done | 16:37 |
| Lara_ | but this laptop is doomed :P | 16:37 |
| fcanela | that's not what I asked, but OK :) | 16:37 |
| xela2244 | hi, libreoffice is not working, when i open writer i get loged out. | 16:37 |
| daftykins | Lara_: why can't you boot from USB or DVD? | 16:38 |
| thevaliantx | daftykins, what exactly are you doing to "support" anyone here? Serious question here. No harm, no foul. I've yet to see you offer anything positive in the time I've been here today. You don't have to answer. | 16:38 |
| Knight80 | Do you recommend me not to install ppa's at all, then? | 16:38 |
| daftykins | thevaliantx: no i just got home, is that a problem? | 16:38 |
| xela2244 | lara are you using windows? | 16:38 |
| Knight80 | I mean, is it risky? | 16:38 |
| fellayaboy | lol xela2244 | 16:38 |
| thevaliantx | daftykins, we're talking about the time that we're both here. i don't care about your personal life. | 16:38 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, yes it's risky. "unsupported" is unsupported for a reason. | 16:39 |
| Lara_ | daftykins: Idonbt know. Old pc | 16:39 |
| auronandace | thevaliantx: stop trying to pick an argument, you want support then go to the appropriate channel | 16:39 |
| Lara_ | fellayaboy: Ok | 16:39 |
| daftykins | thevaliantx: i've supported people in here for years and solved plenty of queries, now take yours to the relevant channel as suggested and stop trying to stir drama please :) | 16:39 |
| fellayaboy | Lara_, let me know if all those commands worked fo ryou | 16:39 |
| Lara_ | cfhowlett: dont follow u | 16:39 |
| Knight80 | Not even ppa's made for the same Ubuntu version? | 16:39 |
| OerHeks | Lara_, you have been given the EOL page, why do you switch to an other solution? | 16:40 |
| cfhowlett | Lara_, what statement did I confuse? | 16:40 |
| Lara_ | fellayaboy: Nope | 16:40 |
| fcanela | Knight80, another spaniard here | 16:40 |
| thevaliantx | auronandace, it's called defending yourself. Free speech, pal. Nothing nasty was exchanged. I'll put you on ignore next. | 16:41 |
| fellayaboy | you tried all of them? event he ones at the bottom where you reinstall? | 16:41 |
| fcanela | I install ppa from time to time, but I prefer repositories version if there is not a good reason to stick to ppa | 16:41 |
| cfhowlett | Knight80, ppa's are *unsupported*. now, YOU may decide to risk your system from a "trusted" ppa, but UBUNTU doesn't trust those ppas. so you break it, you buy it. Just my $0.02. YMMV | 16:41 |
| fcanela | i.e: you need a updated version of the software or something like this | 16:41 |
| fcanela | as cfhowlett says, you're risking your pc to the maintainer truthworthy | 16:41 |
| Knight80 | fcanela How do you know? | 16:41 |
| Lara_ | cfhowlett: eolupgrade | 16:41 |
| fcanela | maybe he decides to change the binary with a backdoor and you are doomed | 16:42 |
| cfhowlett | !eolupgrade | lara READ THIS WIKI!!!! | 16:42 |

| tgm4883 | cfhowlett: not trying to nitpick, but Ubuntu doesn't support those PPA's. It does trust them though (in the sense of signing keys and all that) | 16:42 |
| xela2244 | does anyone know why libreoffice writer won't open, i'm using kubuntu 15.04 | 16:42 |

| fcanela | hope my answer was useful for you | 16:42 |
| Knight80 | fcanela it was :) | 16:43 |
| PCatinean | how does one close all ports on a ubuntu server except for ssh/http/http and ftp? | 16:43 |
| Knight80 | fcanela where in spain? | 16:43 |
| daftykins | !ufw | PCatinean | 16:43 |
| ubottu | PCatinean: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 16:43 |
| PCatinean | ufw, wasn't it called something different? | 16:43 |
| Lara_ | ubottu: im reading* | 16:43 |
| PCatinean | like i...something | 16:43 |
| cfhowlett | fcanela, Knight80 take the offtopic dicussion to pm or #ubuntu-offtopic please | 16:43 |
| fcanela | I think it's offtopic here | 16:43 |
| Knight80 | cfhowlett Sorry | 16:44 |
| cfhowlett | thank you. | 16:44 |
| daftykins | PCatinean: ufw uses iptables. | 16:44 |
| PCatinean | iptables, yes I wanted to say that but it sounded silly :D | 16:44 |

| Lara_ | so if i want to update to v.15 | 16:50 |
| PCatinean | A simple example of allowing port 22 and denying everything else would be | 16:51 |
| PCatinean | sudo ufw enable sudo ufw allow 22 sudo ufw deny all? | 16:51 |
| PCatinean | though that last one I did not see in the documentation | 16:51 |

| daftykins | Papa2five: Orc IRC? is that a client? | 17:03 |
| EriC^^ | Lara_: pastebin sources.list | 17:03 |
| Lara_ | Does i have to delete the old ones or add | 17:03 |
| BarryD9545 | not my keyboard | 17:03 |
| fcanela | i'm comfortable editing the file directly, so for me it's ok that way | 17:03 |
| fcanela | Lara_, I suggest you to backup and replace | 17:03 |
| Papa2five | No - it's been years since I. Did this and was looking for automated help | 17:03 |
| daftykins | automated? i don't believe we've upgraded to AI support yet | 17:04 |

| fcanela | Lara_, how is your installation going? | 17:04 |
| Lara_ | EriC^^: cant pastebin, im not in the same computer | 17:04 |
| Lara_ | rly bad | 17:04 |
| Lara_ | im giving up i think fcanela | 17:04 |
| fcanela | Lara_, can you install pastebinit apt package? | 17:04 |
| EriC^^ | Lara_: you can comment out the old ones by adding a # at the start of the lines, and use the ones in the eolupgrade site with your ubuntu's codename though | 17:04 |
| Lara_ | EriC^^: hmmm | 17:05 |
| fcanela | if you pipe anything to pastebinit, it'll paste in pastebin.com for you | 17:05 |
| Knight80 | fcanela The thing is /etc/apt/sources.list shows up different repos than /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 17:05 |

| guest-lUj11U | yes | 17:09 |
| guest-lUj11U | i tried to execute a command to go to desktop, but it closed my programs i guess. after a restart, I had the screen that was asking for password. | 17:10 |
| EriC^^ | what command? | 17:11 |
| anony_user | guest-lUj11U, can you try something like "sudo nano..."? and enter the password | 17:11 |
| guest-lUj11U | I forgot that command, but it was a short one | 17:11 |
| guest-lUj11U | i used "sudo" | 17:11 |
| EriC^^ | sudo startx? | 17:11 |
| guest-lUj11U | "sudo xstart" | 17:11 |
| guest-lUj11U | or "sudo startx" | 17:11 |
| EriC^^ | don't use sudo with startx | 17:11 |

| guest-veh2W1 | i rebooted after | 17:31 |
| daftykins | you still what? | 17:31 |
| hendryirvin | well, any solution with my problem? | 17:31 |
| guest-veh2W1 | I cant access my root account, although i'm shore about password | 17:31 |
| EriC^^ | guest-veh2W1: access your root account? | 17:32 |
| guest-veh2W1 | I can only access my root account from ungraphic mode. | 17:32 |
| daftykins | hendryirvin: look up info on that game, write a proper script and all should be well. however you won't have much RAM left to run the game running X on a VPS :P | 17:33 |
| guest-veh2W1 | maybe I should know the code to launch graphic mode from command line | 17:33 |
| EriC^^ | guest-veh2W1: why are you launching gui as the root user anyways? | 17:33 |

| hendryirvin | how much storage space that needed to run x? | 17:34 |
| daftykins | hendryirvin: "common" doesn't mean a thing. and i don't see why your friend needs to understand, you're the one that is trying to get it running :) | 17:35 |
| hendryirvin | yeah, its been 5 days now, and i still dont get it running | 17:35 |
| hendryirvin | daftykins: can you help me out? | 17:35 |

| hendryirvin | how? | 17:39 |

| guest-qjr2ce | @EriC: both. they are the same | 17:41 |
| EriC^^ | you mean the account you can use sudo with? | 17:42 |

| anony_user | Anyone experienced with "Unity Tweak Tool" ? | 17:46 |
| daftykins | yeah startx doesn't belong on a VPS | 17:46 |
| ninthDimension_ | Hello, I'm about to "steamroll" over my Ubuntu install so that I can install Win7, and THEN get Ubuntu back (dual boot).But before I did, I wanted to ask someone what each partition is for, because there are more than I expected and I don't want to delete the wrong one! | 17:47 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: what are you typing from right now? | 17:48 |
| ninthDimension_ | someone else's MBP | 17:48 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: "sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo parted -l | pastebinit" would be handy | 17:48 |
| daftykins | likely you have sda1 for /, sda5 is the extended partition - then sda6 is your swap | 17:48 |
| ninthDimension_ | I have the following - ... OK i;ll try the pastebin... | 17:49 |
| anony_user | I installed "Unity tweak tool" in order to move the 'window controls' on the right side* but it doesn't work... Anyone experienced this problem? (14.04.3) | 17:50 |
| soman | Hi all. I have a distro with deb-based package manager and I broke libc6 packet when tried to install a package downloaded from debian website. How can I replace that package? I installed 'libc6-debu' package which provides libc6 but libc6 version isn't changed. | 17:51 |
| daftykins | soman: only ubuntu is supported here, if you have some other you need to find their support. | 17:51 |
| soman | daftykins: the same problem will be 1 to 1 in ubuntu so the only one solution exist (if any) | 17:52 |
| daftykins | soman: we don't know that for sure, what if they use other package names? :) | 17:52 |
| daftykins | anony_user: you seen http://askubuntu.com/questions/174292/how-can-i-move-all-the-window-controls-to-the-right-or-left/451330#451330 ? | 17:52 |
| ioria | !info libc6 | 17:52 |
| ubottu | libc6 (source: glibc): GNU C Library: Shared libraries. In component main, is required. Version 2.21-0ubuntu4 (vivid), package size 3997 kB, installed size 9423 kB | 17:52 |
| === wook is now known as Guest28400 | ||
| ninthDimension_ | OK here's the pastebin link for my drive partitions: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12329847 | 17:53 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: ah EFI install, backup your data then just delete everything. | 17:53 |
| soman | daftykins: they could use other names :) but the question is: how can I replace back my package if I have a CD with package? dpkg -i 'pack' sucesfully install the package but libc6 version still has the same as package from debian which is broke my original one. | 17:55 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins_ OK. I was surprised to see a large 462GB partition, called "file system" and then a 3.2GB partition called "OS" (These were the labels shown in the Win7 installation - it freaked me out so I cancelled it) | 17:56 |
| fRit_^ | hello, is anyone who is good in apparmor? | 17:57 |
| ninthDimension_ | There was "ESP" (524MB), "DIAGS" (42MB), "OS" (3.2GB), "File System" (462GB), "Swap" (34GB) and a little free space. | 17:57 |
| thopiekar | Hi, is here someone from the Xorg SWAT? I just found a packaging problem with the nvidia-* drivers. I wanted to install the opencl drivers, but installing it it removes all opencl applications. The nvidia opencl packages say they provide "libopencl1", but currently the generic opencl package is called "ocl-icd-libopencl1" except "libopencl1". I think adding "ocl-icd-libopencl1" to the provides will quickly fix that | 17:57 |
| thopiekar | problem :) | 17:57 |
| daftykins | soman: sorry but i don't understand you | 17:57 |
| ninthDimension_ | I didn't know which one to choose to delete in the Windows installer. | 17:58 |
| daftykins | thopiekar: SWAT is a PPA - this is an official channel so that is not supported here. you must contact them (but i'd recommend not using those graphics driver PPAs at all) | 17:58 |
| anony_user | "As I wrote in technical details, Canonical hardcoded buttons position in their Unity plugin." - Whaaaaaat? wow | 17:58 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: you should boot your ubuntu install media and delete every single one with gparted | 17:59 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: bear in mind though, windows 7 needs modifications to install in EFI mode - so you're going to need to install ubuntu as legacy if you install Win7 as legacy. | 17:59 |
| daftykins | !efi | ninthDimension_ see here for more information | 17:59 |
| ubottu | ninthDimension_ see here for more information: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 17:59 |
| thopiekar | daftykins: The problem is also available in Ubuntu's repositories. I thought the Xorg SWAT is the team working on the Xorg packages at Canonical//Ubuntu | 18:00 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: but other people have advised me to use the Win7 installer to overwrite everything, and create a partition to later use for Ubuntu. Then after Win7 is finished installing, go about installing Ubuntu. Not using GParted, | 18:00 |
| ash_work | so, just as a note, I installed qt4-qtconfig which I thought would enable bold text on skype... like, sending a message *with bold text* | 18:00 |
| ash_work | but all it did was make everything bold | 18:00 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: that's terrible advice, you'd leave empty space - but you would not make partitions for ubuntu from windows | 18:01 |
| guest-SdIv75 | @EriC: I tried your advice, but the loging of my sudo account cancels immediately after confirming pw. :( | 18:01 |
| ash_work | I uninstalled qt4-qtconfig and everything remained bold | 18:01 |
| ash_work | shucks | 18:01 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: really this task is very simple, do you still have ubuntu booted? | 18:01 |
| EriC^^ | guest-SdIv75: did you try ls -l ~/.Xauthority ? | 18:01 |
| guest-SdIv75 | @Eric: I did. it connects. | 18:02 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: yes I do, I didn't overwrite anything. People said it's simpler to begin with Win7 and then install Ubuntu, than it is to begin with Ubuntu and install Win7. | 18:02 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: yeah Windows first is preferable. do you have anything you need from ubuntu backed up already? and you've got a win7 DVD / flash drive to hand? | 18:03 |
| guest-SdIv75 | @Eric: but I cant login in the GUI with my sudo account. It cancels immediately. A small window appears and it is very hard to read. | 18:03 |
| KCmetro | any recommendations for arp poisoning detection apps? (find arp spoofing) | 18:03 |
| KCmetro | IP&ARP, that is | 18:04 |
| guest-SdIv75 | @Eric: at that window, one button is named Cancel and the other is named. | 18:04 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: Yeah I wanted to do it the simplest way possible, because I have no experience of Ubuntu. I do have a bootable Win7 mem stick (I made with YUMI), a bootable Ubuntu mem stick (I made in the "Startup disk creator" from ISO). And I don't have anything to back up from Ubuntu since the computer is new. | 18:04 |

| daftykins | ninthDimension_: your ubuntu installation was done as EFI, this means multiple extra partitions as per the EFI specification were created - Windows 7 will not use these, so the disk should be wiped | 18:17 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: Thanks. I honestly appreciate your help - I just like to understand what I'm doing a little better, when it comes to overwriting/deleting partitions etc. That's very helpful though. | 18:17 |

| guest-pvZN4o | i was able to log in in new account. | 18:19 |
| EriC^^ | guest-pvZN4o: try adding the new user, if it works it means it's just a config issue in your user's home dir, then you can try renaming some dirs to see which one is causing the error | 18:19 |

| TJ- | JOW "connection refused" means there is no SSH server on that IP address. My guess is your NUC has been given a different IP address and you're trying to connect to the wrong IP address. | 18:21 |

| genii | JOW: Let's assume then the machine at 10.202.111.34 is properly set up. Is the other machine you are trying to ssh in from on the same network as that one, or is it out on the internet some other place? | 18:22 |
| JOW | same network genii | 18:22 |
| JOW | same university genii | 18:23 |
| genii | TJ-: Seeing as the range he's trying to reach is one of the reserved ranges, I wanted to see if he's trying to reach it from outside first ;) | 18:23 |
| ioria | hoijui, check ifconfig , sudo lshw -c Network , try sudo ifp eth0 | 18:23 |
| ioria | *ifup | 18:23 |
| TJ- | genii: This has been a long-running issue. JOW is on a uni campus, he has an Intel NUC that gets a DHCP lease, and the IP address keeps changing. He has the last known IP saved on his PC and uses that to connect to the NUC. When the DHCP lease changes he loses connectivity. We've recommended several times now either to get the IT Admin to allocate a static lease, OR use a Dynamic DNS service | 18:24 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: OK did what you suggested in terminal and rebooting... | 18:25 |
| JOW | TJ- I'll do that but I think it stoped changing!! =) | 18:25 |
| genii | JOW: If you do: telnet 10.202.111.34 22 ...does it say something like SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_6.6.1p1 Ubuntu-8 ( or anything else in fact) or does it just disconnect? | 18:25 |
| JOW | TJ- I configured manually and I think it stopped changing now | 18:25 |
| genii | TJ-: Ah, I see. | 18:25 |
| hoijui | ioria, ifconfig shows only loopback and wlan0, no eth0 | 18:25 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: hooray! you're a life saver, now it's all "unallocated space" | 18:25 |
| TJ- | JOW: "connection refused" means no service is listening, so if you can 'ping' the NUC, then you've got either a firewall blocking it, or the sshd is not running | 18:25 |

| genii | JOW: You should open a support ticket with whoever is supposed to be administering the machine you are trying to reach, it should have a static IP or else an internal name which can be found by dns | 18:26 |

| ioria | hoijui, can you paste that and lspci -nn ? | 18:26 |

| cx405 | Hello, sorry, Debian user here. Does current ubuntu have "console-setup" and /etc/default/locale. Nobody has an idea at #debian, perhaps someone can help me? This is a question about LANG in that file. | 18:27 |
| hoijui | ioria, ok, but will take a min or two, as i have to transfer it by usb stick.... | 18:27 |
| blo_ | @EriC: files not found. :s. Im a noob. | 18:27 |
| JOW | TJ- interesting because I have ifconfig telling me the IP | 18:27 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: you'll need to work out how to boot it in legacy mode, it depends on your computer type - usually there's a keypress after power on to get a one-time boot menu - often devices are listed twice, once for EFI and once for legacy - my link earlier should've shown the difference | 18:27 |
| pbx | cx405, yes on the second question - http://dpaste.com/2HKVRWJ | 18:27 |
| EriC^^ | blo_: ok, try to login to your | 18:28 |
| EriC^^ | 1sec | 18:28 |
| genii | TJ-: Yes, he should apply to have the machine be given the same IP, I agree | 18:28 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: I'm OK with that, it's F2 and then twiddle some settings. Is the goal to be able to boot from mem stick? | 18:28 |
| JOW | genii I got pretty much what you said | 18:28 |
| blo_ | @EriC: thats still corrupt. | 18:28 |
| blo_ | @EriC: I'm that guest one. I made "bl" account. | 18:29 |
| EriC^^ | blo_: try to login to your old account using ctrl+alt+f1, to get a command line, then type mv ~/.config ~/.config.old | 18:29 |
| blo_ | @EriC: I'm that guest one. I made "blo" account. | 18:29 |
| pbx | cx405, and yes on the first - http://dpaste.com/2Z8F6Z7 | 18:29 |
| cx405 | pbx: thanks. The question is this. The /etc/default/locale is parsed by console-setup, which is a script. The value of /etc/default/locale is changed by it. HOWEVER, if I define a variable directly in console-setup (TESTVAR="yay"; export TESTVAR), then this variable does not survive - echo $TESTVAR shows nothing. | 18:29 |
| JOW | genii but then it didn't bring to prompt again and when I typed enter it gave me a message "protocol mismatch. connection closed by foreign host" | 18:29 |
| lucidguy | I would be very grateful if someone can assist with this issue.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/12330126/ | 18:29 |
| pbx | cx405, i have no console-setup on $PATH | 18:29 |
| amine | hello | 18:30 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: yes but as legacy, not EFI - also, if you just clicked next in the 7 installer - you'll need to resize 7 to make some empty space at the end of the disk - you can do this from diskmgmt.msc | 18:30 |
| amine | where is here guys !! | 18:30 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: i'd also do all the windows updates before bothering to put ubuntu on | 18:30 |
| daftykins | amine: ubuntu support channel, as per topic. | 18:30 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: shit i forgot to do that | 18:30 |
| JOW | TJ- but what about the noip site... I was trying that... | 18:30 |
| cx405 | pbx: console-setup is called on boot. I added "echo "We are parsed by $0 as $(id)">>/tmp/locale.log at the end of /etc/default/locale. I got two entries - kbd, and then console-setup. | 18:30 |
| cx405 | pbx: to rephrase this even simpler. Why does "LANG=xxx" in /etc/default/locale gets parsed; but not "TESTVAR=xxx" in /etc/init.d/console-setup, where console-setup: . /etc/default/locale; export LANG; TESTVAR=xxx; export TESTVAR. ? | 18:31 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: oh right can it be resized after the fact, once Win7 is finished installing? | 18:31 |
| TJ- | JOW: It depends if you configured the NUC to correctly inform noip when it gets a new IP address. | 18:31 |
| hoijui | ioria, https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8845910 | 18:31 |
| JOW | TJ- hehehehe I stopped without finishing I think... I'll try to continue now | 18:32 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension_: yeah once you reach the desktop | 18:32 |
| pbx | cx405, don't know i'm afraid. hopefully someone else is more knowledgeable | 18:32 |
| ninthDimension_ | daftykins: phew! i thought i'd fucked it! | 18:32 |
| cx405 | why an environment variable, sourced from some file and exported by some script at boot - gets exported and visible. However environment variable at end of this script - not. | 18:32 |
| cx405 | pbx: thats not a problem, thank you very much for helping so far! | 18:33 |

| TJ- | hoijui: You should see "alias: pci:v00008086d000010F5sv*sd*bc*sc*i*" ... if not, the kernel version is too old to have support, and you'd need a more recent kernel from the HardWare Enablement packages | 18:59 |

| TJ- | hoijui: line 36 of your original pastebin shows it is the 8086:10f5 device, so if that alias is claimed by e1000e according to modinfo, then I'd suspect you have a PCI bus config problem, and I'd look at /var/log/dmesg for clues that the device's BARs weren't all assigned | 19:08 |
| TJ- | hoijui: if your 'modinfo e1000e' doesn't show an alias covering 1f05 then you need a newer kernel. | 19:09 |

| TJ- | hoijui: It may be the bridge window couldn't accomodate the device's BARs. Depending on the mobo/BIOS it may not be using CRS. It is worth trying to reboot it and adding to the kernel command-line "pci=usr_crs" | 19:12 |
| TJ- | hoijui: most modern systems already support and use CRS, but it is an obvious option. Another option you should try is "pci=realloc" | 19:12 |
| TJ- | hoijui: Try them both as "pci=usr_crs,realloc" which will tell the OS to re-allocate bridge windows if the down-stream devices need more room | 19:13 |

| TJ- | hoijui: That pastebin looks correct; the e1000e driver at that point was managing the device. Did you at some point do "modprobe -r e1000e" or "rmmod e1000e" before running "lshw" - because no driver was loaded when 'lshw' ran | 19:17 |

| stacks88 | dumb question im sure but, i just saw how there is a package called 'grive' on ubuntu 14.04 lts trusty, in the universe repository.. grive - Google Drive client for GNU/Linux.. How is it determined that a package is safe and not malicious? Does someone at ubuntu or debian verify the source code, build it and then thats how it ends up in the repository? I know im being irrational but im just | 19:28 |
| stacks88 | trying to understand if someone is actually looking over the source code of these packages that we are freely able to install, or if its just assumed its safe, compiled and ported to .deb and thats it. | 19:28 |
| hoijui | WOAA | 19:28 |
| hoijui | TJ-, ioria, i have eth0 now! wiht the kernel options! | 19:29 |
| MonkeyDust | stacks88 this is the support channel, your question is more for #ubuntu-offtopic, i guess | 19:29 |
| hoijui | lets see if it works... | 19:29 |
| ioria | hoijui, pci problem then ? | 19:29 |
| hoijui | yes, it works! | 19:30 |
| hoijui | ioria, yep! | 19:30 |
| hoijui | wow.. thanks guys! | 19:30 |
| OerHeks | stacks88, go check the source yourself https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grive | 19:30 |
| TJ- | hoijui: Great ... now add them permanently | 19:30 |
| hoijui | so i have ot make sure to add these things in my grubconfig then, right? | 19:30 |
| Pici | stacks88: I think your question is just fine for this channel.. anyway, You may want to see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories, and note that most of our packages are synched from Debian | 19:30 |
| TJ- | hoijui: You know how to do that, or want instructions? | 19:30 |
| hoijui | or how | 19:30 |
| hoijui | loose instructions woudl be good | 19:31 |
| ioria | hoijui, sudo nano /etc/default/grub | 19:31 |
| hoijui | liek.. edit grub file and reinstall grub or soemthing? | 19:31 |
| TJ- | hoijui: Edit /etc/default/grub, put them in the variable GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX, then do "sudo update-grub" | 19:31 |
| stacks88 | OerHeks but thats just it. I fully understand the source is available for me to view, but i just wonder if these packages are blindly being put together without reviewing the source, (as id imagine that would take too much time maybe to review all the source code for every package, or?) | 19:32 |
| ioria | TJ- great TJ - | 19:32 |
| stacks88 | Pici ok thanks | 19:32 |
| hoijui | thanks! :-) | 19:32 |
| hoijui | so... now can we do somethign that others wiht the same problem get benefits too? | 19:33 |
| ioria | hoijui, did you use pci=use_crs,realloc or what ? | 19:33 |
| hoijui | my simple idea is, to open a question on superuser stackexchange? | 19:33 |
| hoijui | ioria, yes, those! | 19:33 |
| TJ- | hoijui: we have many bug reports along the same lines for various hardware; It's a firmware bug really | 19:34 |
| ioria | hoijui, idk... maybe it's specific of your hardware | 19:34 |
| OerHeks | stacks88, not blindly AFAIK, why do you ask? | 19:34 |
| TJ- | hoijui: There are 2 separate issues. It'd be worth you testing each option separately to find out if only one of them is required. | 19:34 |
| hoijui | TJ- .. hmmmm... so is it documented somewhere already? | 19:34 |
| hoijui | ok, i will do that... | 19:35 |
| Kalimero | my ubuntu server restarts @ a certain time once a day. but sometimes it doesnt come up again. in which log do i have to look in to find out whats going wwrong | 19:35 |
| daftykins | Kalimero: is it a physical machine you run yourself at home? | 19:35 |
| TJ- | hoijui: use_crs tells the OS to use the ACPI CRS (Current Resources) method of the DSDT. | 19:35 |
| Kalimero | daftykins: yes it is | 19:36 |
| daftykins | Kalimero: do you run it headless? | 19:36 |
| hoijui | device tree? | 19:36 |
| hoijui | ok... | 19:36 |
| TJ- | hoijui: pci=realloc tells the OS to try alternative bridge windows for PCI devices if those devices won't fit in the current bridge window. Often the BIOS doesn't set the bridge window large enough. | 19:36 |
| Kalimero | daftykins: what do u mean by headless | 19:36 |
| hoijui | btw, i will get nearly the same hardware again tomorrow | 19:36 |
| hoijui | or .. soon | 19:36 |
| TJ- | hoijui: no, no device-tree on there. DSDT is Differentiated Services Description Table | 19:37 |
| daftykins | Kalimero: no attached screen | 19:37 |
| hoijui | so i will see if i get the smae problem there | 19:37 |
| hoijui | ahhh ok | 19:37 |
| TJ- | hoijui: I suspect "pci=use_crs" fixed it. | 19:37 |
| hoijui | thanks | 19:37 |
| inddwtsn | daftykins: can you send me the command again? | 19:37 |
| inddwtsn | for memtest | 19:37 |
| Kalimero | daftykins: yes no screen and no keyboard is attached atm | 19:38 |
| ioria | hoijui, get a wireless router so you can use wifi if you want | 19:38 |
| hoijui | trying that now.... | 19:38 |
| daftykins | inddwtsn: it's actually not memtest, but another idea - "sudo apt-get install smartmontools pastebinit && sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit" and link the URL please | 19:38 |
| hoijui | ioria, yeah.. maybe! | 19:38 |
| hoijui | <TJ->, as you suspected.. pci=use_crs was enoug | 19:39 |
| hoijui | will now try again wihtout either option, jsut to make sure no weird thing happened inbetween... | 19:39 |
| inddwtsn | daftykins: paste.ubuntu.com/12330568/ | 19:40 |
| hoijui | shii.. | 19:40 |
| hoijui | now it works without eihter option! | 19:41 |
| ioria | hoijui, kiddin ? | 19:41 |
| hoijui | nope | 19:41 |
| daftykins | inddwtsn: re-run the command with -s as mentioned | 19:41 |
| ioria | hoijui, try to shutdown | 19:41 |
| ash_work | is there a way to compare an ls from dir1 to dir2 and output files present in dir2 but not present in dir1? | 19:41 |
| hoijui | i rebootet at least 3 tiems before i came here | 19:41 |
| daftykins | inddwtsn: so "sudo smartctl -s on -a /dev/sda | pastebinit" | 19:41 |
| ioria | hoijui, not reboot try to shutdown | 19:41 |
| ash_work | maybe some find command voodoo | 19:42 |
| hoijui | ioria.. ahh ok.. trying.. | 19:42 |
| daftykins | ash_work: why bother? just rsync the pair then you'll know :) | 19:42 |
| ioria | hoijui, and paste sudo lshw -c Network | 19:42 |
| hoijui | hoijui, still.. works without any options | 19:42 |
| daftykins | ash_work: i think it even has a dry run option so you can see what it'll do before doing it | 19:42 |
| hoijui | ok.. | 19:42 |
| inddwtsn | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12330588/ | 19:42 |
| daftykins | inddwtsn: hmm ok doesn't look too bad, also "free -m | pastebinit" ? | 19:44 |
| inddwtsn | is it the hdd? | 19:44 |
| inddwtsn | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12330605/ | 19:45 |
| daftykins | inddwtsn: hmm, foreignese :D nope that looks ok, so i'd hold left shift at startup, go to advanced and run memtest | 19:45 |
| daftykins | !memtest | 19:45 |
| daftykins | no factoid =| | 19:45 |
| Midoshi27 | I'm having trouble using the 'Startup Disk Creator'. I'm trying to use an .iso of RHEL 6.5 but it's not loading into the .iso list after I select it. Has anybody run into this problem before? | 19:46 |
| mab_ | hello | 19:46 |
| OerHeks | ash_work, diff -r <directory1> <directory2> | 19:46 |
| daftykins | Midoshi27: no point, just use dd to put the ISO on a flash drive | 19:46 |
| wileee | Midoshi27, It only reads ubuntu iso's | 19:46 |
| hoijui | ioria, TJ- now it just.. disconnected, and the lights on the interface went off | 19:47 |
| lisibowk | hello | 19:47 |
| inddwtsn | daftykins: memtest is already installed? | 19:47 |
| hoijui | ioria, lshw https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8845920 | 19:47 |
| daftykins | inddwtsn: yeah, should be on the GRUB boot menu | 19:47 |
| lisibowk | I have problem to Install buntu 14 | 19:47 |
| inddwtsn | ok brb | 19:47 |
| hoijui | so maybe hardware problem after all? | 19:47 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: what's that? on one line | 19:47 |
| Midoshi27 | wileee: Oh I thought that might be the problem | 19:48 |
| Midoshi27 | daftykins: tried that, usb fails to boot | 19:48 |
| ioria | hoijui, ifconfig ? | 19:48 |
| daftykins | Midoshi27: how did you do it? if you wrote to sdb1 for example, that won't work - it must be the main device, sdx | 19:48 |
| lisibowk | the problem is in bios menu | 19:49 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: can you explain in full in one sentence maybe instead of bits and pieces? | 19:49 |
| lisibowk | yes | 19:49 |
| hoijui | ioria, ifconfig still shows eth0, but no ip anymore (bfore got one from my other PC, through DHCP) | 19:49 |
| hoijui | i set IPS manually now, but still there is no connection | 19:50 |
| hoijui | and no lgihts showing up on the interface | 19:50 |
| hoijui | lights* | 19:50 |
| ash_work | OerHeks: no, cuz that prints tha differences actually in the files | 19:50 |
| ash_work | I literally just want to know which files are present or not... similar output to a regular ls -a1 command | 19:50 |
| lisibowk | now i have linux mint 17.2 and want to try ubuntu I allready have usb with ubuntu_ but I dont kow how to start it from pc | 19:51 |
| ioria | hoijui, go in Cnnecton Infromation | 19:51 |
| inddwtsn | shift didn't do anything, it just booted me straight back into the system | 19:51 |
| ioria | hoijui, from the the upper paneò | 19:51 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: laptop/desktop? what brand? | 19:51 |
| ioria | *l | 19:51 |
| lisibowk | Laptop | 19:52 |
| lisibowk | hp 250 | 19:52 |
| hoijui | ioria, and then? | 19:52 |
| hoijui | it shows the e1000e driver | 19:52 |
| ioria | hoijui, check it | 19:52 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: ok, so something like F11 might give you a boot menu at power on | 19:52 |
| ioria | hoijui, the ip , the gateway (default route) | 19:53 |
| hoijui | ioria, i am looking at it.. can not see anything special there | 19:53 |
| hoijui | yeah.. now they are on what i set manually | 19:53 |
| lisibowk | the problem is i boot menu | 19:53 |
| hoijui | and i cant ping, either way | 19:54 |
| ioria | hoijui, DNS ? | 19:54 |
| hoijui | i cna ping my own IP though | 19:54 |
| newb123 | How do I enable CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK in the kernel? Can I enable it per kernel module or just in the kernel itself? | 19:54 |
| lisibowk | I dont know how to configurate it | 19:54 |
| ioria | hoijui, can you ping your router ? | 19:54 |
| hoijui | i have a crossover cable between the "sick" PC and the other one | 19:54 |
| daftykins | crossover cables haven't been necessary for a very long time. | 19:55 |
| hoijui | i did internet conenction sharing, and it worked | 19:55 |
| hoijui | but then it fialed, and now .. just does not get any packets through | 19:55 |
| hoijui | also wiht manual IPs set | 19:55 |
| ioria | hoijui, so you cvan't ping your router ? | 19:55 |
| lisibowk | I mean that it does not start from usb | 19:56 |
| skinux | I just tried to install Ubuntu 14.04.3 from both USB and DVD, both ways when trying to boot the image it said no configuration file or UI found. What is that supposed to mean? | 19:56 |
| hoijui | ioria, there is no router involved | 19:56 |
| hoijui | but yes.. cant ping either PC from the other | 19:56 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: perhaps you did not prepare the drive properly | 19:57 |
| hoijui | i will try to reboot... | 19:57 |
| ioria | hoijui, ok... well, add again the kernel parameter then ... and good luck mate | 19:57 |
| lisibowk | I used unetbootin | 19:57 |
| Moonlightning | So…what's up with the disparity between the initscripts and `service`? | 19:57 |
| hoijui | ioria, thanks :D | 19:57 |
| hoijui | and thansk a lto for your time.. | 19:57 |
| lisibowk | mb I have to use another? | 19:58 |
| Moonlightning | `service` doesn't seem to be reading things from /etc/default (at least not for isc-dhcp-server) | 19:58 |
| skinux | Has anyone ever gotten the error no configuration file or UI found when trying to install Ubuntu? | 19:58 |
| hoijui | it works at least partially.. soemhow.. ;-) will meddle with this stuff, and come back if i foudn something stable | 19:58 |
| ioria | hoijui, pleasure :-) | 19:58 |
| hoijui | :-) | 19:58 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: 'dd' in the terminal would do just fine. plug the flash drive in, identify it with "sudo parted -l" then run "sudo dd if=/path/to/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=2M" | 19:58 |
| lisibowk | which program you can recommend? | 19:58 |
| indeedwatson | daftykins: ok i'm running memtest, for how long and what do i do afterwards? | 19:59 |
| daftykins | indeedwatson: until the "Passes" variable changes to "2" | 19:59 |
| lisibowk | ok I will try | 19:59 |
| TJ- | hoijui: OK... if/when the interface dies, check "/var/log/kern.log" | 20:00 |
| skinux | ......why do I always get errors like this when I'm trying to do something | 20:00 |
| daftykins | indeedwatson: here's what a failure looks like - http://bestwinsoft.com/images/Memtest86_4.png | 20:00 |
| hoijui | TJ-, ok | 20:01 |
| indeedwatson | daftykins: ty, i'll go back and check in a bit | 20:01 |
| skinux | "no configuration file or UI found"...doesn't make any sense when trying to install from an ISO | 20:01 |
| lisibowk | can you set me link by link please I am stupid | 20:01 |
| TJ- | hoijui: you might want to look back in that log now, to the time when it disconnected earlier, and see what it shows. | 20:01 |
| skinux | I suppose I should mention that I think it gives me a "boot:" prompt | 20:01 |
| daftykins | skinux: sounds to me like your download was fudged. | 20:02 |
| skinux | Figures | 20:02 |
| TJ- | skinux: did you check the hash/checksum of the ISO, and of the image on the media? | 20:02 |
| hoijui | TJ-, now it fails to find my harddisc ... | 20:03 |
| hoijui | :D :D | 20:03 |
| hoijui | when booting | 20:03 |
| lisibowk | failed to open | 20:03 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: failed to open what? i gave you commands to run in the terminal application | 20:04 |
| skinux | Where do I find a checksum to compare it to? The download page doesn't have one. | 20:04 |
| bryan_ | my browser game do not work, java is messed up, im using xubuntu | 20:05 |
| daftykins | !md5 | 20:05 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 20:05 |
| hoijui | ah, now foudn it again.. | 20:05 |
| === andrew is now known as SlenderMan | ||
| TJ- | hoijui: sounds like the system needs a good clean and tidy | 20:07 |
| hoijui | TJ- ... ok :D | 20:07 |
| lisibowk | d: failed to open '/path/to/ubuntu.iso': No such file or directory | 20:07 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: yeah you need to actually put in the real path to the ISO file you downloaded. | 20:08 |
| lisibowk | using program or from web? | 20:09 |
| daftykins | it's on your disk, if you downloaded it | 20:09 |
| daftykins | so it might be in /home/username/Downloads/blah.iso | 20:09 |
| lisibowk | yes | 20:09 |
| daftykins | so you need to put that path into the command i gave | 20:09 |
| newb123 | How can I get the source for the current kernel version? apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r) seems to retrieve the linux source which is not the same kernel version as $(uname -r)? | 20:10 |
| daftykins | make sure you change 'sdx' to be the real disk device too | 20:10 |
| peyam | hi | 20:10 |
| peyam | everytime I install something I need to run sudo apt-get update otherwise it wont install anything | 20:10 |
| peyam | even if the name is in repository | 20:10 |
| lisibowk | I did it using the program unetbootin | 20:10 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: i'm saying to do it this way... | 20:10 |
| bekks | peyam: Updating the packages lists using sudo apt-get update is stringly recommended. | 20:11 |
| compdoc | unetbootin is terrible | 20:11 |
| peyam | yes but i dont have to use it everytime. It doesnt find it anyway | 20:11 |
| bekks | peyam: update updates the package lists, install installs, and search searches for software. | 20:12 |
| peyam | bekks, after many years of using linux now people tell me what install does. | 20:12 |
| daftykins | peyam: so you're saying if you run "apt-cache search linux" you get nothing? | 20:12 |
| bekks | peyam: Your experience and vita isnt instantly visible using IRC. | 20:13 |
| hoijui | TJ-, will open and clean it.. thanks a lot! might be back one of these days | 20:13 |
| hoijui | now bed | 20:13 |
| peyam | What im saying is without using sudo apt-get update, I cant use sudo apt-get install | 20:13 |
| enfinitee | Hey everyone! I'm on Ubuntu 15.04, and whenever I try to screenshot something, my whole screen goes gray and I have to either close the screenshot dialogue (losing the screenshot), or log out and back in. Does anybody know how to fix this? (p.s. if you Google the issue, resetting Unity does not fix it) | 20:13 |
| daftykins | enfinitee: works in the guest session? | 20:14 |
| lisibowk | I did it | 20:15 |
| daftykins | \o/ | 20:15 |
| enfinitee | I haven't tried in the guest sessoin, @daftkins...let me get back to you | 20:15 |
| skinux | Damn it. I just downloaded the ISO again, and the checksum is wrong | 20:17 |
| skinux | I guess i can't download it directly to a USB. | 20:17 |
| daftykins | torrent it | 20:17 |
| daftykins | that'll ensure it's correct | 20:17 |
| daftykins | maybe you've got memory or disk issues? | 20:17 |
| enfinitee | daftykins...screenshotting in the guest session produced the same problem, gray screen that I had to close out of | 20:17 |
| lisibowk | ISO is on USB | 20:17 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: go try booting it again | 20:18 |
| daftykins | enfinitee: ok, that shows it's not user config based then perhaps | 20:18 |
| lisibowk | from bios? | 20:18 |
| daftykins | lisibowk: well the boot menu | 20:18 |
| lisibowk | ok | 20:19 |
| lisibowk | hope I will do it | 20:19 |

| dieterd | gtkdialog working - sources not possible to compile because gtk2+.pc broken because gtk-engines-2.ps is linking to gtk2+.pc which is not existing. | 20:55 |
| dieterd | gtkdialog is damaged paket. | 20:55 |
| dieterd | apt-get upgrade: failure in gtkdialog. unknown elements dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile Error 2. No solution found in www. deb maintainer comes from multiboot. Seems more a dummy package. Looking for a work around. | 20:56 |
| cofo | How can I download entire website with css/html/images/style with curl? | 20:57 |
| cofo | Please | 20:57 |
| OerHeks | dieterd, gtkdialog is long gone removed, what are you doing ? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtkdialog | 20:57 |
| cofo | Any idea? | 20:57 |

| prometheus | is it a chat for all the ubuntu flavours? | 20:59 |
| prometheus | i mean, like ubuntu GNOME, etc, or just for unity? | 20:59 |
| dieterd | OerHeks: something needs it. but because of that upgrade is failing and stops in the middle. | 20:59 |
| cofo | yes | 20:59 |

| OerHeks | dieterd, something? | 21:00 |
| dieterd | yeah, one is is multiboot for creating usb-sticks with mutliple distros and persistent modes. | 21:01 |
| cofo | Anone know how to use httrack? | 21:02 |
| dieterd | another thing is that so apt-get runs not through upgrade so dist-upgrade in futur never works too. | 21:02 |
| OerHeks | dieterd, still not clear how this is related to ubuntu? | 21:02 |
| OerHeks | Maybe someone else in this channel knows | 21:03 |
| dieterd | gtkdialog was in the past in paketmanager ubuntu moved to sourceforge and to google as external apt-sources. | 21:05 |
| jwash | 0erHeks: so i did find * / | grep xorg.conf here is the result http://paste.ubuntu.com/12331085/ | 21:06 |

| OerHeks | 10.04 is EOL. | 21:09 |
| MonkeyDust | dieterd 10.04 is no longer supported | 21:10 |
| dieterd | Do you have an idea how to run through upgrade? An option to bypass gtkdialog. May there is later an replacement. | 21:11 |
| k1l | !eolupgrade | dieterd | 21:11 |
| ubottu | dieterd: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 21:11 |

| jwash | i tried to use an edid cloner so that my monitor output would be displayed on 2 simultaneous outputs | 21:20 |
| dieterd | xorg.conf: http://www.drewanz.com/dieter/linux/XORG.TXT | 21:21 |
| dieterd | jwash: look xrandr | 21:23 |
| TJ- | jwash: instead of trying to use a manual EDID, you can set a Section "Monitor" in "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" which sets the monitor's correct HorizSync and VerticalRefresh ranges | 21:25 |
| TJ- | jwash: that info will be in the monitor/TV manual, usually in the technical specifications in an appendix | 21:25 |
| jwash | dieterd it isn't showing in xrandr | 21:26 |
| jwash | TJ- will it work even if it doesn't show in xrandr? | 21:26 |
| dieterd | jwash: https://www.maketecheasier.com/how-to-setup-dual-monitors-with-xrandr/ and no xconf.org is required for that | 21:26 |
| indeedwatson | daftykins: still here? memtest 3 passes and 0 errors, wat do? | 21:27 |
| TJ- | jwash: Here's an example: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12331289/ | 21:29 |
| TJ- | jwash: If the output doesn't show up in xrandr then you need to check the Xorg server log in case something else is wrong, too "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" | 21:30 |
| dieterd | Without xorg.config you can type this in termainal as xrandr options. if found right values, put all orders in a bash file. that you can start from terminal. terminal xrandr offers more options than GUI xrandr! | 21:30 |
| TJ- | jwash: what does "xrandr -q" report? | 21:31 |
| jwash | TJ- HDMI1 not connected | 21:32 |
| jwash | it is turned on and connected | 21:32 |
| jwash | i think that it isn't being recognized because the EDID code got funked up | 21:33 |

| TJ- | jwash EDID is optional. I'd check the HDMI connections, and ensure the monitor has that connection enabled for viewing | 21:37 |
| daftykins | indeedwatson: hrmm, is it a laptop? | 21:37 |
| jwash | tj it is 100% certain | 21:38 |
| TJ- | jwash: if the monitor is a TV, sometimes it needs to be connected to the PC before powering on in order to be enabled | 21:38 |
| daftykins | jwash: there was someone in here not long ago who was sure their HDMI cable was ok, but suddenly decided to buy a new one and saw all their problems go away - worth bearing in mind | 21:40 |
| jwash | ive tried known good cable | 21:40 |
| indeedwatson | daftykins: no, pretty old desktop. I might just give up and install fedora or debian and see if the problem persists | 21:40 |
| daftykins | indeedwatson: ah, well the disk did speak of errors so i'd try leaving it disconnected and run just a live session perhaps - see if it falls over in the same way | 21:41 |

| Promille | Hey guys. Ok I got some major problems here. I updated from 14.04 to 15.04, and there were screwups with 8 packages: grub, initscripts, upstart and friendly recovery. This means that apt-get wont run, its exites since it can't fix these problems. dpkg --configure -a didnt work, neither did apt-get install -f . Any suggestions? Here is transcript from apt-get when i tried to do apt-get update: http://pastie.org/private/aup68whp | 22:00 |

| daftykins | was it 14.04 -> 15.04 direct? | 22:01 |
| Promille | daftykins: thats right | 22:01 |
| daftykins | ok well that's unsupported | 22:01 |
| daftykins | so sounds like you nerf'd it | 22:01 |

| k1l | skinux: dont waste a thought about 13.04, its dead already | 22:28 |
| skinux | I just installed 13.04 over 14.04 because I couldn't 14.04 to install from any medium. Now, it says internet is disconnected when it should be connecting. | 22:28 |
| daftykins | you should be working on why you can't install 14.04, not doing this ass-backwards approach | 22:28 |
| skinux | I was going to upgrade from 13.04 to latest version. | 22:29 |
| k1l | skinux: old kernel, old drivers. no one is going to be motivated to fix a EOL release anyway. | 22:29 |

| daftykins | skinux: so pick a non .3 14.04 disc image :) | 22:30 |
| daftykins | netlar: the boot screen is white text on black background instead of purple with logo | 22:30 |
| skinux | Why should I be trying to install 14.04 instead of 14.04.3??? | 22:31 |
| daftykins | because it's media with a different kernel and is a worthy variable to change | 22:31 |
| skinux | Well, the download available at ubuntu.com is 14.04.3 | 22:31 |
| daftykins | btw you're rubbish at actually thanking those who help you in here, given how regular your queries are :P | 22:31 |

| daftykins | skinux: universal USB installer from pendrivelinux.com then | 23:25 |
| skinux | I'm already working on it. | 23:25 |
| ninthDimension | I read that I should not use Disk Management to create partitions for Ubuntu. What other utilities can I use - GParted in Win7? | 23:25 |
| reisio | ninthDimension: if you don't have any empty partition space, you can resize Windows' to make room, yes | 23:25 |
| reisio | ninthDimension: but it's not 100% safe, more like 90% | 23:26 |
| reisio | ninthDimension: backup important data and defrag beforehand | 23:26 |
| reisio | ninthDimension: or better yet just get another storage device, you'll need more storage eventually anyway | 23:26 |
| reisio | GNU/Linux installs to and boots from USB sticks and external drives fine, btw | 23:26 |
| k1l | ninthDimension: i suggest to use the windows tools to shrink the windows partition. then you can use the ubuntu installer to create the partitions in that free space | 23:26 |
| Bashing-om | Guest65594: A good place to start : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers . | 23:26 |
| * reisio wouldn't use a windows tool to query the time of day | 23:27 | |
| ninthDimension | So I can use Disk Management to resize the Windows partition without formatting it or losing data - Does this entail making a new partition, or simply shrinking the Win7 partition and relegating the rest to "free space"? Afterwards, when I boot from my Ubuntu USB stick, will it contain utilities for me to turn "free space" into a working partition for Ubuntu? | 23:28 |
| reisio | ninthDimension: first you shrink, then you make new partition/s in unpartitioned space | 23:29 |
| daftykins | ninthDimension: shrinking yes, through diskmgmt.msc | 23:29 |
| k1l | ninthDimension: because of murphys law there is no such thing as "without data loss" | 23:29 |
| reisio | ninthDimension: then format/install/etc. | 23:29 |
| ninthDimension | k1l: oh sorry that's pretty much what you just said right? didn't read it properly. did I understand correctly? | 23:29 |
| reisio | yeah Murphy's law, or Windows | 23:29 |
| reisio | take your pick | 23:29 |
| ninthDimension | thanks guys | 23:29 |
| k1l | once you have a backup, you wont loose data :) | 23:29 |
| reisio | it's much simpler to just get another storage device / install to another storage device | 23:29 |
| reisio | it's a better use of time/money/effort | 23:30 |
| reisio | although, so is choosing a single OS over two at once | 23:30 |
| daftykins | now now, we only question the helpees when they're trying to do something insane | 23:30 |
| ninthDimension | does this qualify as insane? | 23:31 |
| daftykins | nah | 23:31 |
| reisio | ninthDimension: nah, just a little wasteful | 23:31 |
| reisio | but what's life without waste | 23:31 |
| ninthDimension | In an ideal world... yada yada yada. But I do need my windows as well as my Ubuntu :( | 23:32 |
| daftykins | i'd drop the ubuntu *cough* | 23:32 |

| Jordan_U | k1l: Why do you recommend using Windows' tools for resizing the Windows partition? In my opinion, doing that has a greater risk of user error than simply letting Ubuntu's installer do the resizing, while ntfsresize has possibly more real world testing than Windows' tools (installing linux is probably the primary reason a person resizes an ntfs volume) and a great track record. | 23:48 |
| daftykins | fundamentally disagree there :) | 23:48 |
| k1l | Jordan_U: first: if anything goes wrong its not ubuntus fault :) second: imho its better to let windows do the shrinking. its well tested and stable. and imho better than the reverse engeneered drivers from the linux world | 23:50 |
