cereal | every so often my touchpad freaks out and in _some_ applications is always in select / drag drop mode (such as gedit and system ui's such as open a file) but not other things like terminal and my browser, has anyone seen this? I have no idea why its happening :-( | 04:52 |
cassio3 | apple says it is apache's job to fix apache | 04:54 |
cassio3 | is that reasonable? | 04:54 |
Volund | okay now to figure out how to samba it up | 04:54 |
Volund | okay so I have Samba installed. the question now is ensuring that the directories I want to share are permanently mounted for it. | 04:58 |
somsip | cassio3: in a ubuntu support channel, it's irrelevant | 05:01 |
cassio3 | somsip | 05:01 |
cassio3 | funny, that's what they said | 05:01 |
cassio3 | "apache is third-party software" | 05:01 |

bobdobbs | is there a gui for connecting to and acquiring images from a wifi printer/scanner? | 05:02 |
cassio3 | where would you recommend? | 05:02 |
cassio3 | bobdobbs | 05:02 |
cassio3 | yes | 05:02 |

cassio3 | it is called TWAIN | 05:02 |
cassio3 | TWAIN works on mac, windows | 05:03 |
cassio3 | and linux/unix | 05:03 |
cassio3 | go to help.ubuntu.com | 05:04 |
cassio3 | I would honestly recommend plugging the scanner in via usb | 05:04 |
cassio3 | or via ethernet to your router | 05:04 |
cassio3 | do not attempt to use wifi | 05:04 |
cassio3 | at least not initially | 05:04 |
bobdobbs | yeah, I think you might be right | 05:04 |
cassio3 | does it work via USB? | 05:04 |
cassio3 | what specific distro do you have? | 05:05 |
bobdobbs | I've managed to print and get images from the printer/scanner before using wifi, but that was a few weeks ago. And now I don't remember how I did it. And back then it took me 6 hours. | 05:05 |
bobdobbs | I'm using ubuntu 12.04 | 05:05 |
bobdobbs | the device is a brother MFC-J4700W | 05:06 |
cassio3 | I suspect | 05:06 |
cassio3 | that if you did it before | 05:06 |
cassio3 | doing it again is instaneous | 05:06 |
cassio3 | configurations don't just vanish | 05:07 |
cassio3 | do you have multiple window managers installed? | 05:07 |
cassio3 | that has tripped me up in the past | 05:07 |
bobdobbs | I think I've got KDE libs instal | 05:07 |
bobdobbs | *installed. | 05:07 |
bobdobbs | but I only use gnome | 05:07 |
bobdobbs | I also don't think that I've got a spare USB cable. so I might be screwed | 05:08 |
cassio3 | relax. | 05:08 |
cassio3 | print out the printers configuration page | 05:08 |
cassio3 | you can do that from the control panels | 05:08 |
cassio3 | on the printer | 05:08 |
cassio3 | brother's are excellent printers | 05:09 |
cassio3 | do you think best at night | 05:09 |
cassio3 | or in the morning | 05:09 |
cassio3 | ? | 05:09 |
bobdobbs | I don't have any paper :( | 05:09 |
cassio3 | oh, ... | 05:09 |
cassio3 | wait | 05:09 |
bobdobbs | I think best at night. (I think) | 05:09 |
bobdobbs | I'm gonna hunt around my flat for a cable | 05:09 |
cassio3 | http://www.hamrick.com/ | 05:09 |
cassio3 | this happens to be the best scanning software | 05:10 |
cassio3 | on any platform | 05:10 |
cassio3 | are you there? | 05:10 |
cassio3 | you can try it | 05:10 |
cassio3 | I would also advise | 05:10 |
cassio3 | seeing if the device is detected if you can do that | 05:10 |
bobdobbs | how would I do that? | 05:11 |
cassio3 | I knew to ask the question | 05:11 |
bobdobbs | I initially tried by looking at the CUPS web UI | 05:11 |
cassio3 | can it see it there? | 05:11 |
cassio3 | or at least your previous attempt? | 05:11 |
bobdobbs | but it doesn't give me a clear indication of whether or not it can see the device presently | 05:11 |
cassio3 | what happens if you try to print to it | 05:11 |
cassio3 | never mind that you don't have paper | 05:12 |
cassio3 | can it see it in the print dialog | 05:12 |
cassio3 | ? | 05:12 |
bobdobbs | the UI doesn't show printers. It just shows jobs | 05:12 |
cassio3 | no, you mistake my meaning | 05:13 |
bobdobbs | well, it displays the device model number under 'queues' | 05:13 |
cassio3 | try to print a document | 05:13 |
bobdobbs | ok... | 05:13 |
cassio3 | like a "hello world" | 05:13 |
cassio3 | here's a brave question: | 05:14 |
cassio3 | do you have other computers on your network? | 05:14 |
cassio3 | can they see e/o and the printer? | 05:15 |
bobdobbs | I've "kind of" got other computers on the network | 05:15 |
bobdobbs | Like, I've got a windows computer | 05:15 |
bobdobbs | I honestly wouldn't know how to connect a windows machine to a network printer. I don't know windows | 05:16 |
cassio3 | no, that's not really what I'm asking | 05:16 |
cassio3 | can your windows computer see your linux one? | 05:16 |

cassio3 | in any case, how did your test go? | 05:17 |
bobdobbs | sometimes it can, sometimes it can't | 05:17 |
cassio3 | ah. okay. | 05:17 |
cassio3 | does your printer have an IP address | 05:17 |
bobdobbs | I haven't managed to push a job yet. I opened a document in my browser, right-clicked and selected the 'print' option... | 05:17 |
cassio3 | can you ping to it? | 05:17 |
cassio3 | ok, what happened when you selected print | 05:18 |
cassio3 | ... | 05:18 |
bobdobbs | the chrome 'print preview' came up, and displayed "print preview failed" | 05:18 |
cassio3 | can you download vuescan and install it | 05:18 |
bobdobbs | and now I can't close that screen without closeing the browser tabe | 05:18 |
bobdobbs | *tab | 05:18 |
cassio3 | that should get you up and running for tonight | 05:18 |
bobdobbs | I don't know if the device has an ip address. | 05:18 |
cassio3 | you do seem to have something wrong with your system | 05:18 |

cassio3 | can you get to terminal | 05:18 |
cassio3 | and run a top | 05:19 |
cassio3 | "top" | 05:19 |
bobdobbs | yes. I'm pretty familiar with the terminal | 05:19 |
cassio3 | ok :-) | 05:19 |
cassio3 | please do that | 05:19 |
bobdobbs | ok. what am I looking for in top | 05:19 |
cassio3 | just tell me what is sucking your cpu | 05:19 |
cassio3 | and causing the gui to hang | 05:19 |
bobdobbs | nothing out of the ordinary: emacs, chrome, firefox, chromium all at the top | 05:20 |
bobdobbs | after that, metacity, vlc, 'plugin-container', which I think is another browser-initiated process | 05:20 |
cassio3 | are you printing from the browser? | 05:21 |
cassio3 | print from emacs | 05:21 |
bobdobbs | might as well kill firefox. I don't need that | 05:21 |
cassio3 | we want to make this really really simple | 05:21 |
bobdobbs | I killed that browser tab. I'll try from emacs. I'll just have to google to figure that bit out... | 05:22 |
la | hello | 05:22 |
bobdobbs | huh. I'd have to configure my emacs init file and load a new lisp library if I want to print from emacs. | 05:22 |
bobdobbs | that seems like too much work for a simple print test | 05:23 |
cassio3 | bobdobbs | 05:25 |
cassio3 | fair enough | 05:25 |
cassio3 | what about from abiword? | 05:25 |
cassio3 | or... | 05:25 |
cassio3 | anything else? | 05:25 |
bobdobbs | oh yeah. I think I've got office products on board | 05:25 |
cassio3 | your browser adds a layer of complication | 05:25 |
cassio3 | the best thing honestly is a pdf | 05:25 |
bobdobbs | cool. I've got libreoffice | 05:26 |
bobdobbs | I'll try printing a pdf from that | 05:26 |
bobdobbs | oh crap | 05:26 |
bobdobbs | it can't open the pdf's I've throwing at it | 05:27 |
cassio3 | ok. | 05:27 |
cassio3 | one sec | 05:27 |
bobdobbs | I think that libreoffice might be displaying the postscript | 05:27 |
bobdobbs | geez, linux | 05:27 |
cassio3 | just open a new file | 05:28 |
cassio3 | type hello world | 05:28 |
bobdobbs | yeah, I've tried three pdf's, from different sources. all of them show garbage | 05:28 |
cassio3 | and say print | 05:28 |
cassio3 | no doubt | 05:28 |
bobdobbs | you mean, in a new document? | 05:29 |
cassio3 | because libreoffice is not a pdf reader | 05:29 |
cassio3 | yeah, that's fine | 05:29 |
bobdobbs | ah, ok | 05:29 |
bobdobbs | ok | 05:29 |
bispo | alguém fala português do Brasil? | 05:29 |
bobdobbs | the printer responded! | 05:29 |
bobdobbs | It made some bleepy noises and now it demands ink | 05:30 |
bobdobbs | (despite the fact that I just filled it) | 05:30 |
bobdobbs | at least I know I'm talking to it now | 05:30 |
cassio3 | that was a lot of work for nothing :-) | 05:30 |
bobdobbs | hehe | 05:31 |
bobdobbs | well, I wasn't going to print from it anyway. | 05:32 |
bobdobbs | Honestly, I know better then trying to print from linux | 05:32 |
=== hrobjartur is now known as bartur | ||
bobdobbs | and I say that as someone whose main platform for over a decade has been linux | 05:32 |
cassio3 | are you using third-party ink? | 05:33 |
bobdobbs | no | 05:33 |
cassio3 | you are also out of paper | 05:33 |
cassio3 | so you can't really expect it to work | 05:33 |
bobdobbs | yes | 05:33 |
cassio3 | are you current on your software updates | 05:34 |
cassio3 | I'm seriou | 05:34 |
bobdobbs | ok, I've discovered that I've got a program called 'simple scan' | 05:34 |
cassio3 | oh good | 05:34 |
bobdobbs | cassio3: I know that my ubuntu is updated | 05:34 |
bobdobbs | If I try and acquire from SS, I get the message 'no scanners found' | 05:34 |
cassio3 | wait | 05:35 |
cassio3 | on most scanners you have to put it in scanning mode | 05:35 |
cassio3 | put paper in there too | 05:35 |

bobdobbs | checking it... | 05:38 |
cassio3 | you will find code to identify scanners | 05:38 |
cassio3 | and to retrieve images | 05:39 |
Volund | no GUI for changing my IP address. X_X | 05:39 |
Volund | changing /etc/network/interfaces is my best option on KDE huh? | 05:39 |
bobdobbs | cassio3: I was hoping that there was a gui for setting up scanning. Not because I'm afraid of the cli... but because of the way memory works. | 05:40 |
bobdobbs | cassio3: like, if I'm going to be using the same commands repeatedly over time in the terminal, I'll remember them. | 05:41 |
Volund | aha | 05:41 |
Volund | found it~ | 05:41 |
bobdobbs | but with something like setting up a peripheral, I just want to set the thing up and forget about it. | 05:41 |
bobdobbs | Then, if I need to reconfigure the peripheral, I'd want the interface to be easily mentally parseable. The best thing for that is a gui. | 05:42 |
Volund | hrm, nope, still nothing like that... arrrargh | 05:42 |
Volund | how to static IP, hrmngh. | 05:51 |

nug700 | really miss the 10 days when you could isntall windows and linux side by side and it would just work. | 07:19 |

cfhowlett | you DID read the section that says "Install ubuntu AFTER you install windows!"??? | 07:20 |
nug700 | (ubuntu 10 days) | 07:20 |
nug700 | Ubuntu was already isntalled | 07:20 |
nug700 | weeks ago. | 07:20 |
nug700 | So in other words if you have ubuntu already and want to put windows in, you have to either reinstall ubuntu or just not install windows? | 07:21 |
cfhowlett | right. and installing ubuntu broke the bootloader - as expected. if grub repair fails, reinstall ubuntu | 07:21 |
cfhowlett | OR install virtualbox and put the other OS in there | 07:22 |

KervyN | Hi maybe someone could help me to find a good piece of software. I am looking for a caching proxy for apt and yum. It should verify signatures and work with ssl. AND it should only cache the packages, not the indexes :-) Any idea? | 07:36 |
cfhowlett | KervyN, might want to ask #ubuntu-server, #fedora and/or ##linux | 07:37 |

pylua | lspci does not print ethnet ,the installation sayes it cannot detect network card | 07:45 |
pylua | hoe to fix | 07:45 |
pylua | how | 07:45 |

ren0v0 | What would happen if i encrypt a drive thats connected via SATA but doesn't have an OS on it or anything, when booting into ubuntu would it try and unlock it? | 07:53 |
cfhowlett | encrypted = can't be unlocked. | 07:54 |
cfhowlett | without permission | 07:54 |
ren0v0 | cfhowlett, would ubuntu ask to unlocked it during boot or login of user etc i guess is what i'm asking | 07:55 |
ren0v0 | like, when you do the same with a USB drive, when its plugged in ubuntu asks to unlock it | 07:55 |
cfhowlett | ren0v0, not during boot or user login. AFTER login should be possible to opne | 07:55 |

vcoinminer | hi guys, I am having really wired problem. I am performing request from A to B(has problem) to C, while A is simply client, C is backend, B is loadbalancer, B hanging (http request) around for every 10 reqs, it need wait a while, otherwise it throw connection_timeout. I think it's from linux itself, because I changed nginx and haproxy both, and still. If | 08:01 |
vcoinminer | I remove B, simply connect from A to C, everything goes fine.. | 08:01 |

MoL0ToV | hi to all! someone know how to insert a ascii char in libreoffice (ALT+123 for example) without using table of chars? | 08:02 |
Nindustries | Fod_, are you working from ubuntu? save your private key as .ssh/id_rsa and your public key as .ssh/id_rsa.pub. Then issue a ssh-copy-id | 08:02 |
hateball | trijntje: I think there are cups options for reverse order... not quite sure how you set them tho. With the KDE print dialog you can just choose "reverse order" | 08:03 |
Nindustries | ssh-copy-id your_server_user@your_server | 08:03 |

jpds | deitarion: Done a "sudo apt-get autoremove" lately? | 08:35 |
EriC^^ | deitarion: it should keep 2 installed by default, try ^^ | 08:36 |

deitarion | http://paste.ubuntu.com/12447053/ | 08:38 |
Volund | I have way too much data to sort out, argh | 08:38 |
MonkeyDust | deitarion you can use synaptic to delete old kernels ... i myself use ubuntu-tweak's janitor, but that's 3rd party and not in the repos | 08:38 |
Volund | it's going to take me days to have this fully sorted | 08:39 |
EriC^^ | deitarion: you have 2 kernels installed, the 3.13-24 and the 3.13-63 , the rest are just the config files | 08:39 |
deitarion | MonkeyDust: I'm looking for something automatic and event-driven. (I've already got enough stuff running in the background to monkey-patch shortcomings in various things.) | 08:39 |
jpds | deitarion: Don't have a /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels ? | 08:39 |
EriC^^ | deitarion: rc means configuration, ii means it's installed | 08:39 |
hateball | pylua: go into your BIOS and see if you can enable/disable your NIC etc, if it is picked up at all | 08:40 |
hateball | pylua: what version of ubuntu are you using, and what type of NIC? | 08:40 |
EriC^^ | deitarion: type sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.13.0-{32..62}-generic | 08:40 |
pylua | hateball:version is 14.04 | 08:41 |
deitarion | EriC^^: Then why are they all showing up in my GRUB listing even after the daily freezes reminded me that I needed to install GRUB into the MBR on every bootable device because plugging in a USB 3 external hard drive scrambles my BIOS boot order? | 08:41 |
EriC^^ | deitarion: it'll remove the configuration files, in the future maybe if you use --purge with autoremove it will remove the config files too, i'm not sure about that | 08:41 |
sune | hi. just installede ubuntu on VM Virtual box. can someone guide me to a good start guide. My main purpose is to build firmware for arducopter with github. thx | 08:41 |

linocisco | it is nothing to do with touch pad | 08:42 |

EriC^^ | deitarion: try sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.13.0-32-generic | 08:43 |
pylua | hateball:dell laptap | 08:43 |
EriC^^ | then see if it's removed from ls -l /boot | 08:43 |
EriC^^ | deitarion: do you have a separate /boot partition? maybe it was mounted ro at the time? | 08:44 |
cfhowlett | deitarion, http://www.unixmen.com/how-to-uninstall-the-old-kernels-in-ubuntu/ | 08:44 |
deitarion | EriC^^: Nope. No separate /boot since it wouldn't be helpful. Also, I just realized something noteworthy. | 08:45 |
deitarion | The rc kernels dpkg lists aren't the ones in /boot. /boot is cluttered up by dozens of 3.5.0 and 3.2.0 kernels. | 08:45 |
EriC^^ | deitarion: interesting.. | 08:46 |
EriC^^ | i guess you could either manually remove them, or install them through apt and them purge | 08:46 |
EriC^^ | *then | 08:47 |
MonkeyDust | 3.2 is from 12.04 | 08:47 |
deitarion | In other words, I'm probably suffering from an old, now-fixed "removing kernel package doesn't remove kernel from /boot" bug. | 08:47 |

kivilahtio | Hi there! A n00b question: I have been doing some IO-intensive computation on my lxc-container. And the continer just froze. I suspect there is a some kind of an filesystem lock somewhere. Now if I run "lsof" or "lsof -b -S 2" from my computer, lsof freezes. Any sugestions on how to start looking for the system lock for whatever is blocking lsof from working? | 08:48 |

zetheroo | In setting up Ubuntu to join an AD domain I have realized only now that it seems logging in with AD credentials can only occur when connected to the Network and to the AD server - unlike in Windowz where after the initial login is completed you can login with the same credentials and into the same user profile with the PC disconnected from the network. So what I wonder is - if I created a local user and pointed it to use the same home directory as the AD us | 09:18 |
lapix | Stanley00, thanks, file reports its a swap. But when i try "grep swap /etc/fstab" or "mount | grep swap" i get nothing back | 09:19 |
zetheroo | The aim would be to use "ADuser1" login when connected to the AD server, and when not conencted to use "localuser1" to login and still have the profile of "ADuser1" loaded. | 09:19 |
hateball | zetheroo: if pam is configured correctly it should fallback to some form of local auth | 09:20 |
Stanley00 | lapix: maybe someone just created it, and don't use it anymore | 09:20 |
zetheroo | hateball: really? I have been googling this for a couple hours now and cannot find any mention of a solution | 09:21 |
hateball | zetheroo: I know from yesterday you're using some pre-configured thing, which I have no idea how it works, but there's a read https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/PAM_Offline_Authentication | 09:21 |

weeirc8089 | so I have this hibernate/resume failure which happens also in mint | 10:56 |
Ben64 | go to the mint support channel for mint | 10:56 |
weeirc8089 | it is probably related to the kernel / intel /dell driver /bios/hardware | 10:57 |
MonkeyDust | weeirc8089 what's the output of cat /etc/issue | 10:57 |
weeirc8089 | MonkeyDust: I think this problem is more deepish than irc chan can do | 10:58 |
weeirc8089 | MonkeyDust: it happens _once_ in a while | 10:59 |
weeirc8089 | sometimes it just hangs on resuming | 10:59 |
MonkeyDust | weeirc8089 this is an irc channel, not sure what you mean | 10:59 |
weeirc8089 | Is there an acceptable place where I can submit such bug? | 10:59 |
weeirc8089 | anyone know? | 10:59 |
weeirc8089 | I mean askubuntu.com is definitely NO-GO | 10:59 |
MonkeyDust | !bug | weeirc8089 | 11:00 |
ubottu | weeirc8089: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 11:00 |
Ben64 | well so far you've given absolutely no information | 11:00 |
weeirc8089 | is there like a kernel bug report site? Like, this isssue is not broad enough to submit on github/kernel issue tracker | 11:01 |
Ben64 | answer our questions first | 11:01 |
weeirc8089 | this is not ubuntu specific - it happens on mint as well | 11:01 |
Ben64 | go to the mint channel for mint support | 11:01 |
weeirc8089 | so definitely not an 'ubuntu'-classified bug | 11:01 |
weeirc8089 | probably more a kernel bug than an ubuntu bug | 11:02 |
MonkeyDust | weeirc8089 provide details | 11:02 |
Ben64 | unlikely | 11:02 |
weeirc8089 | MonkeyDust: ok, when hibernating I see msg in console: "ACPI: hardware state changed while hibernating, success doubtful!" | 11:03 |
weeirc8089 | ^^^ not everytime I hibernate | 11:04 |
weeirc8089 | more ofen I see the : "drm:i915 [drm:ilk_display_irq_handler] *ERROR* Pipe A FIFO underrunbuffer underrun" | 11:07 |
weeirc8089 | sorry for typo | 11:07 |
weeirc8089 | [drm:ilk_display_irq_handler] *ERROR* Pipe A FIFO underrun | 11:08 |
weeirc8089 | so I see this: bugzilla.kernel.org site -- | 11:10 |
weeirc8089 | which seems more of a fit than askubuntu.com | 11:11 |
hateball | weeirc8089: you could ask over in ##linux as well | 11:11 |
weeirc8089 | does ubuntu launchpad bugtracker site even support hibernation bugs? (I ask b/c hibernation is disabled by default) | 11:13 |
weeirc8089 | ? | 11:13 |
auronandace | weeirc8089: hibernation can be tricky especially so when using non-free drivers | 11:18 |
samsher | System becomes unresponsive! Caps lock and Scroll Lock light flashes after logging in the system! | 11:19 |
aquarius | My keyboard is behaving weirdly. Some ctrl+key combinations have stopped working, in all applications. Ctrl+S works fine (and saves things); Ctrl+F is ignored in any application, as are Ctrl+arrow keys. xev shows that the keypresses themselves happen. My keyboard is still set to English (UK) as it always has been, and I tried changing it and then changing it back and it didn't help. How might I debug this? | 11:20 |
Dro__ | how can i work with multiple lines in an editor on ubuntu ? | 11:23 |
MonkeyDust | Dro__ what editor? | 11:24 |
Dro__ | MonkeyDust, phpstorm | 11:25 |
teks | weeirc8089: my experience with suspend/hibernate issues on Linux: they're not trivial to fix, highly specific to make/model of laptop. distros rely on upstream kernel hackers for a fix. you need to supply lots of acpi dumps and other info if you can arrange a good hacker | 11:28 |

aquarius | willcooke, hence puzzlement :) | 11:34 |
aquarius | I thought at first the ctrl key was stuck down or broken or something | 11:34 |
aquarius | I have no idea where to even *look* to resolve this | 11:34 |
willcooke | aquarius, the fact that xev is seeing them sounds like s/w not h/w | 11:35 |
willcooke | aquarius, I'm just going for lunch, I'll ping you when I'm back | 11:35 |
aquarius | willcooke, yup (that's why I tested it). Ctrl and F both work independently, too, as do the arrow keys, so it's not that the keyboard itself is bust, thankfully | 11:35 |

Bluepotato | i was trying to figure out if some problem i was having was caused by the propietary ati driver, so i switched to the opensource driver via the gui | 12:26 |
Bluepotato | however, now gdm does not seem to want to start | 12:26 |
MonkeyDust | admin0 where, when do you see that? | 12:26 |
admin0 | dmesg | 12:27 |
Bluepotato | is there some config file i can edit from my liveusb setup that will switch back to the propietary driver? | 12:27 |
admin0 | MonkeyDust: , http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/1252834 i see similar issues reported by others that they start seeing it, but only solution is how to supress it .. but not understanindg “why” its coming in the first place ? | 12:27 |
MonkeyDust | adeschamps where, when does that error popup, while you were doing what? | 12:28 |

provolik | Hi to all | 12:51 |
provolik | I installed ubuntu minimal 15.04 over a virtual machine (using virtual box) | 12:52 |
ubuntu778 | ok | 12:52 |
provolik | it works, but I cannot find a way to make the autologin on tty1 works | 12:52 |
Guest-shellshock | Pici: a script, this particular line tests this aspect of shellshock (apologies for nic change - using web interface..) | 12:52 |
provolik | I tried with getty but I have no tty1.conf file in /etc/init/ | 12:53 |
provolik | Is there some solution? | 12:53 |
streulma | Hello, when I shutdown my 15.04 PC then I get CPU FIFO Underrun on the 2 notebooks. | 12:54 |
SonikkuAmerica | provolik: We don't use upstart anymore, we use systemd | 12:54 |
streulma | How can I slove this? | 12:54 |
Guest-shellshock | Pici: https://shellshocker.net/ Exploit 5 | 12:55 |
Guest-shellshock | the script I'm using seems to note vunerable, yet thier command doesn't. | 12:55 |
provolik | SonikkuAmerica, I don't know this change. What I have to do? | 12:55 |
* Guest-shellshock begins to suspect script | 12:55 | |
streulma | what are FIFO underruns ? | 12:55 |
Pici | Guest-shellshock: The only thing that I can say is that because Ubuntu backports patches, any tests against version numbers might be erroneous. Pasting that into a bash shell here (on a fully updated 14.04) does not fail. | 12:56 |
* Guest-shellshock notes bash is at 4.3.11, and 4.3.7 included fix for SS | 12:56 | |
SonikkuAmerica | provolik: Well, with the transition to systemd we've dropped using /etc/init.d/anything.*, so what you'll need to do is write up a systemd .service file for your virtual console | 12:56 |
Guest-shellshock | hence my suspect | 12:57 |
Guest-shellshock | Pici: right - here niether. The script i was using failed on Ubuntu, but I have access to a Fedora board which didn't fail.. | 12:57 |
provolik | SonikkuAmerica, thank you. Are you expert enough to advise me a good tutorial or is it better to google for it? | 12:57 |
Guest-shellshock | Pici: thanks, I'll debug with an admin here and see. Cheers! | 12:58 |
Pici | Guest-shellshock: good luck :) | 12:58 |

Enriac | Ok so i try | 13:12 |
BluesKaj | Hi all | 13:13 |
Enriac | How can I make my 81 visible port from outside | 13:13 |
Enriac | i have a preprod website in 81 port (url:81) | 13:13 |
Enriac | And i wan to see from outside this site | 13:13 |
Enriac | i have an apache serveur | 13:13 |
Enriac | server* | 13:13 |
Enriac | on virtualhost server | 13:13 |
hateball | That depends on your network, if you're NATed behind a router etc | 13:14 |
Enriac | OMG i don't know that | 13:14 |
Enriac | i just can modify my apache2.conf avec 000-site.conf | 13:14 |
hateball | Enriac: Maybe you can get better help for that in ##networking | 13:14 |
Enriac | ty hateball | 13:14 |
zai | Enriac: also, look at /etc/apache2/ports.conf which ports it's listening to. change and restart apache | 13:15 |
swatch | s | 13:15 |
Enriac | zai: Yes Listen 81 is in my port.conf | 13:16 |
Hawk554 | Enriac: whats the model of router you are using? | 13:18 |
esseks | ratrace, if you are interested, I solved it by adding GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=wxh to /etc/default/grub (where wxh is my true screen resolution) | 13:18 |
esseks | and running update-grub, ofc | 13:18 |
Enriac | Hawk554: i don't know its not my job :s | 13:19 |
admin0 | in /proc/irq/default_smp_affinity , i see some systems have ffff,ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff,ffffffff while some have ffff,ffffffff .. which is the correct one ? all system are same and have same number (32) cpus | 13:19 |
Hawk554 | Enriac: Have you confirmed that you can reach the server on 81 locally from your workstation? | 13:19 |
esseks | I'm having a hard time interpreting the 14.04.x kernel support schedule (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=14.04.x+Ubuntu+Kernel+Support+Schedule.png)... The vertical arrow means 14.04.{2,3,4} will be automatically update to 14.04.5 when it's out or what? | 13:20 |
Enriac | Hawk554: yes i can work on my prepro website with url:81 | 13:20 |
Enriac | just if i am connect on my ethernet network i can see the preprod websiste on url:81 | 13:20 |
pressure679 | How do you set the blinking underscore cursor to non-blinking block cursor in tty terminal? | 13:20 |
Hawk554 | If you don't have access to modify the edge router/firewall I would really speak with whoever manages that to see if they can get the port setup from the outside | 13:21 |
esseks | pressure679, did you try http://unix.stackexchange.com/q/3759? | 13:21 |

ikonia | fabioff61: problem ? | 13:22 |

MonkeyDust | isaia a cron job comes to mind ... use @reboot | 13:24 |
eviladmin | isaia: what does your script do | 13:24 |
eviladmin | isaia: and exactly when do you need it to run? | 13:24 |
isaia | i am starting an aplication | 13:25 |
esseks | isaia, simplest (and most brutal way) is /etc/rc.local, but I'd really think about writing a small upstart/systemd job script... it's really easy | 13:25 |
pressure679 | esseks: thank you | 13:25 |
eviladmin | isaia: *what* does said application do? | 13:25 |
isaia | nohup mono /usr/local/app/now/whatever.exe > cent.out 2> cen.err < /dev/null & | 13:25 |
thevaliantx | * thinks it funny that people would assume a 'network' being talked about in here is anything more than a long picnic table with 3 computers: one for playing games on Win 7, one for learning Linux and one for looking up pr0n. That machine is reinstalled after each session. The middle computer has potato chip crumbs in the keyboard and a linux handbook with coffee stains in the pages. "le tme talk to tech support...." :) | 13:25 |
eviladmin | rc.local is never the correct solution | 13:25 |
esseks | in fact I said it's the most brutal way eviladmin :) | 13:26 |
eviladmin | the most brutal would be init=/the/app :p | 13:26 |
teiion | if I try to ssh to some company servers I get "permission denien" unless I'm running a full Unity session - in fluxbox for example I can't connect. What DE component is messing with ssh? | 13:27 |
isaia | so i just edit the rc.local and add "nohup mono /usr/local/app/now/whatever.exe > cent.out 2> cen.err < /dev/null &" ? | 13:27 |
esseks | teiion, key or password login? | 13:27 |
teiion | esseks: key login, it says Permission denied (publickey) | 13:28 |
esseks | teiion, try running -vv to see whether the correct key is offered, and/or add -i .ssh/key to the line if you don't do that already | 13:29 |

reisio | re-copy any keys if you're using those | 15:39 |
noahmg123 | reisio: SSH works so I think I have the right credentials. | 15:40 |
reisio | different commands, different opportunities to typo something | 15:41 |
noahmg123 | resio: the machine I am trying this on is a cloud machine. If I copy and paste the exact command to my local machine and run it I am greeted with a password prompt. | 15:42 |
mint_ | EriC^^: still around mate? | 15:43 |
reisio | noahmg123: a cloud machine? | 15:44 |
noahmg123 | reisio: yeah. just a moment. I am going to try something. | 15:44 |
reisio | cloud... doesn't mean anything | 15:45 |
noahmg123 | reisio: Didnt work. BTW it is an ubuntu machine with my Cloud9 account | 15:45 |
reisio | same sshfs versions? | 15:47 |
=== dup|icate is now known as c|oneman | ||
noahmg123 | resio: good question. let me check. | 15:47 |
reisio | noahmg123: r-e-i-TAB | 15:47 |
EriC^^ | mint_: hey, yeah | 15:48 |
EriC^^ | mint_: maybe it has leftover raid stuff? was it ever part of a raid? | 15:48 |
rahulbansal | I installed a package, when I try to execute it, it runs, but when I try to uninstall it, terminal says package not installed | 15:49 |
rahulbansal | How to uninstall it> | 15:49 |
rahulbansal | ? | 15:49 |
mint_ | EriC^^: i don't think so, i used to have it as a windows boot, then i cloned it to a HDD instead, and looking to wipe it so i can main ubuntu on it | 15:50 |
reisio | rahulbansal: how'd you install it? | 15:50 |
noahmg123 | reisio: sorry. OK. For some reason my cloud maching does not echo a line stating it's sshfs version (but does with it's one for FUSE). I put it into debog mode and got 'fuse: invalid argument `TCPKeepAlive=yes'´ | 15:50 |
noahmg123 | debug* | 15:50 |
EriC^^ | mint_: if you're going to wipe it, you could try cleaning a fresh partition table, maybe that would help | 15:50 |
EriC^^ | *creating | 15:51 |
mint_ | EriC^^: how would i go about and doing that mate? | 15:51 |
rahulbansal | reisio: sudo apt-get install | 15:51 |
rahulbansal | actually I installed proxychains vs 3 | 15:51 |
EriC^^ | mint_: type sudo parted -l to get the disk name first in case it changed | 15:51 |
=== jeff_ is now known as Guest66804 | ||
noahmg123 | reisio: nevemind the debug mode error. I was msitaken | 15:52 |
rahulbansal | using sudo apt-get install proxychains., after that I installed proxychains4 using zip file ( ./configure make && make install) | 15:52 |
mircx1 | i have problem with xmlrpc | 15:52 |
mircx1 | ERROR :Invalid command in negotiation phase: GET | 15:53 |
mint_ | EriC^^: it's the same as before. now that i know it's /dev/sdb/ what do i do? | 15:53 |
noahmg123 | reisio: ok they are both the same version | 15:53 |
rahulbansal | reisio: both of them use same config file, so when I uninstalled the proxycxhain vs3 it also removed the config file for proxychains4 | 15:53 |
EriC^^ | mint_: ok, type sudo fdisk /dev/sdb | 15:53 |
EriC^^ | then press o to create a new partition table, then press w to write it | 15:53 |

icholy | iptables v1.4.21: can't initialize iptables table `tcp': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?) | 16:15 |
icholy | Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. | 16:15 |
icholy | have iptables been disabled? | 16:16 |
MonkeyDust | icholy what's the outcome of sudo ufw status | 16:16 |
icholy | MonkeyDust: inactive | 16:17 |
MonkeyDust | icholy try sudo ufw enable | 16:18 |
icholy | MonkeyDust: still same output from iptables | 16:19 |
icholy | MonkeyDust: also, I don't want the firewall enabled | 16:19 |
MonkeyDust | icholy still inactive? that's odd ... install gufw and launch it | 16:19 |
DanOpi | Hey guys I was hoping to get some help with Mint. I know this is an Ubuntu channel but every Mint channel is dead | 16:20 |
icholy | MonkeyDust: no, `ufw status` stays active, but I still get the error when trying to run iptables | 16:20 |

Marenz | Greetings | 16:24 |
Marenz | I am in a terminal on my (graphical X) desktop. When I try to start a GUI program, I get > xclock -> No protocol specified \nError: Can't open display: :0.0 | 16:25 |
Marenz | (In this example I used xclock) | 16:25 |
ikonia | Marenz: xhost + | 16:26 |
ikonia | Marenz: or set your DISPLAY variable correct | 16:26 |
Marenz | display is :0.0 | 16:26 |
Marenz | which I would expect my x server to be.. | 16:26 |
Marenz | xhost + gives the same error | 16:27 |
DanOpi | I have a new computer. No previous installations on it. Just built it. Just installed Ubuntu on my SSD and I also have a HDD. But it won't let me open my HDD | 16:27 |
Armadillos | Has anyone seen this issue: When logging into my system with the nvidia drivers installed, I get a black screen at the login prompt. I can still log in, just can't see anything. If I change back to the noveau drivers, I can see the login screen? | 16:27 |
reisio | the issue of people using clearly inferior drivers for unknown reasons, or...? | 16:28 |
cfhowlett | DanOpi, already told you; no mint support here | 16:32 |
Marenz | any other idaes why I can't run programs from my terminal, getting No protocol specified \nError: Can't open display: :0.0 | 16:34 |
Marenz | I don't even know how to analyse this :/ | 16:34 |
pavs | Merenz: are you connected remotely? | 16:34 |
Marenz | no it's a normal urxvt terminal in my desktop | 16:34 |
Marenz | started in my desktop | 16:34 |
Marenz | all local | 16:35 |
Marenz | and I think it worked just a few minutes ago | 16:35 |
Marenz | even my window manager can't create new windows Oo | 16:35 |
Marenz | very odd | 16:36 |
pavs | odd indeed | 16:36 |
pavs | is it a windowed progra? | 16:37 |
ikonia | Marenz: have you used sudo | 16:37 |
pavs | *program | 16:37 |
Marenz | I have | 16:37 |
Marenz | like, in some terminal I certainly did "sudo su" at some ponit to install some stuff | 16:37 |
ikonia | right - what was the sudo command you used | 16:37 |
ikonia | there you go | 16:37 |
ikonia | sudo su will not work | 16:37 |
pavs | lol | 16:37 |
ikonia | that is not the right thing to do | 16:37 |
ikonia | exit out of that shell | 16:37 |
ikonia | and it will start working | 16:37 |
Marenz | well.. it gave me a shell to work with in that sense it did work | 16:37 |
ikonia | no - it didn't work | 16:38 |
Marenz | ok | 16:38 |
ikonia | it gave you a bad shell that can cause problems | 16:38 |
Marenz | shell closed | 16:38 |
Marenz | including terminal | 16:38 |
Marenz | problem persists so far | 16:38 |
ikonia | Marenz: open a new terminal | 16:39 |
ikonia | and type 'id" | 16:39 |
ikonia | oops | 16:39 |
Marenz | can't | 16:39 |
ikonia | 'id' | 16:39 |
ikonia | you can't open a terminal ? | 16:39 |
ikonia | why not | 16:39 |
Marenz | told you, even the window manager can't open new windows | 16:39 |
Marenz | same problem I guess. | 16:39 |
Marenz | i still have one non-root terminal open | 16:39 |
pavs | what did you install remove recently? | 16:39 |
jeffreylevesque | trying to add ssh-key (private) - https://bpaste.net/show/41ba7a6382a0, but i get "/bin/sh: 1: cannot create /root/.ssh/id_rsa: Directory nonexistent" | 16:40 |
ikonia | Marenz: is this a desktop ? | 16:40 |
Marenz | this is a desktop. I am typing in xchat right now on that computer | 16:40 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: it shouldn't be in /root - that is for the root user | 16:40 |
ikonia | Marenz: reboot your desktop | 16:40 |
Marenz | i installed a few things, mysql serevr, openvpn, qbittorrent | 16:40 |
ikonia | just reset your x env | 16:40 |
pavs | year restart to see if it fixes it | 16:40 |
Marenz | I try logging out/in | 16:40 |
Marenz | then I try restart | 16:40 |
Marenz | brb | 16:40 |
jeffreylevesque | ikonia: i thought i did `sudo cat > ~/.ssh/id_rsa <<- EOM`, which should be the logged in user? | 16:41 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: that means you're root - which you should not be | 16:41 |
jeffreylevesque | ikonia: `cat > ~/.ssh/id_rsa <<- EOM` does the same thing :( | 16:41 |
Marenz | well, A re-login did fix it | 16:41 |
jeffreylevesque | how do i run as not root | 16:41 |
Marenz | but I wonder what caused it in the first place and how to avoid it | 16:41 |
Marenz | you mentioned my sudo su is bad.. how should I aquire a root shell then? | 16:42 |
mentazoom | i'm trying to expand my disk via GParted, not understanding how. Can anyone help? | 16:42 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque:show me the output of 'id' please | 16:42 |
Pici | jeffreylevesque: also, you really really shouldn't have pasted your private key into a pastebin. | 16:42 |
ikonia | win 14 | 16:42 |
Marenz | oh, I have an idea | 16:42 |
Marenz | I changed my hostname | 16:42 |
jeffreylevesque | Pici: i'm providing that private key as github deploy key | 16:43 |
jeffreylevesque | it has only read access permission | 16:43 |
jeffreylevesque | it's for my travis integration | 16:43 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: please show me the output of the command 'id' | 16:44 |
jeffreylevesque | ikonia: https://travis-ci.org/jeff1evesque/machine-learning/builds/81046075 | 16:44 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: I don't want a ci output | 16:44 |
pavs | Marenz: it could be a possibility, glad it got fixed. | 16:44 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: I just want the output of the command 'id' | 16:44 |
Marenz | thanks for the help! | 16:44 |
pavs | ec | 16:44 |
jeffreylevesque | ikonia: ok, i will add and have travis rerun, one second | 16:44 |
pavs | wc | 16:44 |
Pici | jeffreylevesque: which user's .ssh/id_rsa file are you trying to modify? | 16:44 |
jeffreylevesque | ikonia: just the command `id`? | 16:44 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: what has this got to do with travis ? | 16:44 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: how are you adding a key | 16:45 |
jeffreylevesque | the travis user that's spinning up the docker container | 16:45 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: how does this fit into ubuntu ? | 16:45 |
jeffreylevesque | i'm running ubuntu 14.04 in my docker container | 16:46 |
jeffreylevesque | so i'm running these commands in ubuntu, within the docker container, that travis is implementing | 16:46 |
mentazoom | Can I resize my current partition with GParted while im on the OS or is Live CD must? | 16:46 |
ikonia | mentazoom: livecd | 16:46 |
mentazoom | dam | 16:46 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: so the error you get is "no such file" because the /root/.ssh directory doesn't exist | 16:46 |
ikonia | jeffreylevesque: get travis to not execute the key add - as root | 16:47 |
ikonia | or create the directory (bad idea) | 16:47 |
jeffreylevesque | ikonia: when i run `id`, i get "uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)" | 16:51 |
jeffreylevesque | the docker container is used for unit testing, then i think blown away | 16:52 |
linocisco | hi | 16:52 |
jeffreylevesque | so maybe running as root is ok for this case | 16:52 |
linocisco | how to rename a file? | 16:52 |

linocisco | shortcut to rename a file or folder on desktop | 16:52 |

linocisco | but what is used for ubuntu? | 16:53 |

MonkeyDust | manizc not uninstall... backup and delete | 17:20 |
linocisco | hi | 17:20 |
linocisco | font my skype is not larger yet | 17:21 |
manizc | MonkeyDust: Isnt that same as uninstalling? | 17:21 |
MonkeyDust | manizc yes, if you want to call it that | 17:21 |
linocisco | font on my skype can't be larger | 17:21 |
manizc | MonkeyDust: Isnt there other way? | 17:21 |
manizc | I thought you could just expand if you use live ubuntu | 17:22 |
MonkeyDust | manizc technically yes, without dataloss... i tried it, but it took several hours | 17:23 |
manizc | MonkeyDust: How can I take backup | 17:23 |
MonkeyDust | manizc there are several ways, i use rsync | 17:24 |
manizc | I only have 16GB pen drive, so I doubt I can backup on that.. | 17:24 |
linocisco | what is the best download manager on ubuntu? | 17:26 |
ikonia | there isn't a best | 17:26 |
ikonia | try them - see what you like | 17:26 |
ikonia | research them see which one looks like it will fit your needs | 17:26 |
manizc | MonkeyDust: cant i just expand over the unallocated partition_ | 17:28 |
MonkeyDust | manizc like i said, yes, but that can take several hours | 17:28 |
manizc | MonkeyDust: That is okey, how can I do it_ | 17:29 |
MonkeyDust | manizc are they all primary? | 17:29 |
manizc | MonkeyDust: http://imgur.com/yxN6e2t | 17:30 |
w30 | How do I get the 32bit libs for 15.04? | 17:31 |
MonkeyDust | manizc frankly, i'd prefer you find a way to backup first, before you start changing partitons, I don't want to be responsible if anything goes wrong | 17:34 |
manizc | MonkeyDust: I understand, there is not anything valuable which is not backuped | 17:34 |

MonkeyDust | manizc because you want merge a primary paprtitions with an extended one, that cannot be done | 17:39 |
chaos7theory | thevaliantx: It could be ufw and/or your router / modem setup. | 17:40 |

Batholith | Guys, can you explain what's happening here? http://pastebin.com/dQTHAxFX | 17:47 |
navs | hey is there some odd behavior with 14.04 and openssh trying to connect to a non existant host | 17:48 |
navs | i get 'ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host' instead of the expected 'ssh: Could not resolve hostname sksksks: Name or service not known' | 17:49 |
navs | its not a big deal just odd | 17:49 |
tumbler | Batholith, two libraries libquazip.so and libQt5Core.so don t exist | 17:50 |
thevaliantx | chaos7theory, what i dont' understand is how the client and server are on the same machine. i can see that being a problem if the client was another computer in the house. | 17:51 |
thevaliantx | chaos7theory, i think i have heard of ufw, is it easy to troubleshoot? | 17:51 |
Batholith | tumbler: They do, in the very directory the executable is in. | 17:51 |
chaos7theory | thevaliantx: Ubuntu comes with a GUI frontend called Gufw to mess with. | 17:51 |
Batholith | tumbler: Line 19 and 14 | 17:52 |
tumbler | Batholith, you are right ... i noticed later ... maybe are used by something else | 17:53 |
thevaliantx | chaos7theory, i'll check it out now ... thanks | 17:53 |
Batholith | Okay, FML. tumbler, I downloaded the 64-bit version of the software and started the script and now it works. | 17:54 |
tumbler | well done ... that's fun | 17:54 |
Batholith | And now I need to get my microphone to work on Ubuntu. | 17:56 |
Batholith | Sheesus, I wish I was on Windows. | 17:57 |
navs | noone needs a microphone | 17:58 |
Batholith | You must've never played games. | 17:58 |
navs | i just call people on 3 way on my cell | 17:59 |
navs | its worth it to stick it to the big guys and use a commie os | 17:59 |
Batholith | Fuck this, I'm gonna try to see if I get Windows fixed. Doing anything on Ubuntu is just a lot of trouble with a chance to break things. | 17:59 |
navs | just run a proper os on your host and lunix in a vm for work like all the sane people | 18:00 |
hizz | Batholith, if you aren't getting microphone visible, you might ensure you have pulseaudio installed | 18:00 |
MonkeyDust | Batholith struggling with games? | 18:00 |
hizz | sudo apt-get install pulseaudio | 18:00 |
w30 | Batholith, nah... i you break Linux just go get a new one. They are free. | 18:01 |

OneM_Industries | Anyone know some tips for reducing memory usage? I am usually pushing 5GB of RAM used with almost nothing open. | 18:58 |
w30 | /part | 18:59 |
navs | yea irc will do that | 18:59 |
BluesKaj | OneM_Industries, run htop to see what's using up your cpu | 19:00 |
OneM_Industries | Actually, my IRC app is only eating 30MB of RAM. | 19:00 |
OneM_Industries | My CPU is fine, it is RAM that is the issue. | 19:00 |
BluesKaj | oops:-) | 19:01 |
OneM_Industries | That is ok. :) | 19:01 |

=== tcpman is now known as Guest37965 | ||
OneM_Industries | Yeah, I just upgraded my CPU, so CPU load is no issue. | 19:02 |

tumbler | OneM_Industries, tray out to run a memory test | 19:03 |
OneM_Industries | Yep, I have that running. | 19:03 |
AvatarA | it's probably just the file buffers/cache | 19:04 |
navs | yea unused ram is inefficient | 19:04 |
navs | memory manager will trash the cache if you need it for a process | 19:04 |
OneM_Industries | Top 3 are Firefox, with 600MB RAM used, compiz with 324MB used, and zeitgeist-fts. | 19:05 |

navs | browsers are gonna use a shit ton of memory | 19:05 |

navs | for caching its not really a problem unless you start swapping hard | 19:06 |
AvatarA | and chrome will use shitton*4 | 19:06 |
OneM_Industries | Swap is at 284KB memory. | 19:06 |

One thing I did think of was checking /etc/fstab because my /dev/sdc2 entry was now invalid due to some gparted action,... | 19:06 |

=== volund is now known as Volund | ||
TJ- | kidx: Driver support for many capture devices is patchy | 19:19 |

kidx | what you mean patchy | 19:20 |
* Volund is now on his Linuxbox yay | 19:20 | |
kidx | patchable | 19:20 |
BluesKaj | kidx, it should as a source | 19:20 |
kidx | and is that to the kernel? | 19:20 |
TJ- | kidx: The first step is to identify the device and its PCI Vendor:Product ID, using "lspci -nn" in a terminal | 19:20 |
kidx | I went to windows casue of this | 19:20 |
kidx | could not get it to come in as a video device | 19:20 |
TJ- | kidx: patchy == many devices have only partial or no drivers - manufacturers don't support Linux | 19:20 |
LexLuthor | MonkeyDust, ubottu I want to put up a new machine and I am planning to run ubuntu in it and I am looking for which specifications to pick. | 19:21 |
kidx | gona try Ubuntu Studio | 19:21 |
kidx | hope that works with everything | 19:21 |
TJ- | kidx: 'Studio' has no additional drivers for hardware; it is just a distro with packages tailored for editing/producing multimedia | 19:22 |
kidx | so what is reconmended | 19:22 |
kidx | regular ubuntu | 19:22 |
TJ- | kidx: If there is no Linux driver for the device it can't be used | 19:23 |
kidx | what do you reconmend | 19:23 |
kidx | i am curious about linux mint | 19:23 |
kidx | and stuff | 19:23 |
webera | kidx, ubuntu, mint, debian, studio is al just linux and debian based | 19:24 |
kidx | yea but each distro has better driver support | 19:24 |
kidx | its all about testing | 19:24 |
kidx | yup | 19:24 |
kidx | trial and error | 19:25 |
TJ- | kidx: No. All distros have the same drivers | 19:25 |
kidx | you just said studio is missing hardware? | 19:25 |
TJ- | kidx: More recent Linux kernels often have support for more (recent) devices, and better support for older devices | 19:25 |
webera | kidx, it's just about packaging and documentation | 19:25 |
kidx | I dont know ill look around thanks guys laters | 19:26 |
TJ- | kidx: You misread. I said 'Studio' has no additional drivers for hardware. Linux kernel includes the hardware drivers. The only exceptions are proprietary drivers such as Nvidia, ATI fglrx, a few Wifi (Ralink) and specialist devices | 19:27 |

TJ- | ki7rw: sep_alicia No. The point is that the local (client) connects as usual to the sshd, then the server sets up a listening port and forwards all packets back to the client, which then forwards them to the *local* port (which must have some service listening) | 20:03 |

sep_alicia | TJ-: I don't know if the ssh server is working correctly or not, so I'm requesting help in testing it | 20:27 |
ikonia | if you can't connect to it from an external hose, either a.) it's not running b.) soething is blocking it | 20:27 |
EriC^^ | sep_alicia: can you telnet to port 22? | 20:27 |
ikonia | someone else won't prove/disaprove that | 20:27 |
w30 | ikonia, 5 years ago, I don't remember where I got the .deb | 20:27 |
ikonia | w30: use apt rather than dpkg | 20:28 |
ikonia | apt will resolve deps if they are available | 20:28 |
ikonia | if the deps aren't available - then there is your answer | 20:28 |
sep_alicia | TJ-: The server works correctly when connecting locally, from the server to itself: ssh localhost -p 6622 | 20:28 |
ikonia | if you are trying to get around a firewall, it stands to reason that a good network admin would block you from doing that | 20:29 |
w30 | ikonia, the deps are not available officially anywhere. | 20:29 |
sep_alicia | TJ-: But the server is behind NAT, so I'm looking for help testing the reverse ssh | 20:29 |
TJ- | sep_alicia: The best way to diagnose the connection is to increase verbose logging on the server, and on the client ends, and check the logs | 20:30 |

Pici | w30: it sounds like it unmaintained, its very unlikely you'll get it to work on modern Linuxes. | 20:34 |
sep_alicia | ikonia: So instead of someone taking 5 minutes to help me out, your advice is go spend a couple hours learning how to use aws and setup a virtual machine to test this out... Hmm, yeah. I appreciate your help | 20:35 |
ikonia | sep_alicia: yes, | 20:35 |
ikonia | as people are not keen to connect to random boxes, more so when you're trying to bypass someones firewall | 20:35 |
w30 | Pici, it works on my xubuntu 15.04 which has been drug through several up grades | 20:36 |
ikonia | w30: where did you get the deps for 15.04 ? | 20:36 |
w30 | ikonia, I searched xubuntu for libtiff4 and I don't have the lib but xv works, go figure? | 20:38 |
ikonia | w30: I don't understand - you're saying you can't find the library but it's working ? | 20:38 |
ikonia | w30: what's the actual problem ? | 20:38 |
w30 | ikonia, I used getlibs back in the xubuntu install | 20:39 |
Pici | w30: Well, the last stable release was in 1994, theres another patched version out there last updated in 2009 that I can find, but I'd be surprised if you could get it working outside of building it from source yourself. | 20:39 |
sep_alicia | TJ-: In the debian room, someone told me that you need to be running sshd on both client and server for reverse ssh to work. I really have no idea. I never read about this in the online guides to reverse ssh | 20:39 |
w30 | Pici, this program parallels Model T development | 20:40 |
ikonia | sep_alicia: what OS are you doing this on debian or ubuntu ? | 20:41 |
hony | ; | 20:41 |
TJ- | sep_alicia: If you've configured the local ssh client end to forward to the local sshd server listening port, that should be correct (assuming the local sshd server is listening on localhost) | 20:41 |
hony | #hardware | 20:41 |
sep_alicia | TJ-: gotcha | 20:42 |
auronandace | hony: nearly got it, there's 2 hashes | 20:42 |

Twigler | do any of you guys program using just the terminal | 20:53 |
ratrace | Twigler: yup | 20:53 |
Twigler | is it difficult to learn | 20:53 |

Abe | Hi I am trying to run Middle earth Shadow of Mordor on Linux. If I run ShadowofMorder.sh it gives me an error error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2_image-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 20:55 |
Abe | what does that mean? | 20:56 |
ikonia | Abe: normally means it's missing a 32bit library | 20:56 |
ikonia | or just missing something it wants in general | 20:56 |
Abe | what do I have to do to get it fixed :( | 20:56 |

ikonia | yup | 20:57 |
jwbrown77 | I can't seem to find any definitive reference for all available options in a preseed, either in Ubuntu or Debian's documentation. | 20:57 |

jake10 | hi all, i am wanting to install ubuntu on a win7 system, my 1st HD is a SSD with win7 on it and i have a 1TB storage drive too, if i have partitioned a 50 gig chunk for ubuntu, can i just install ubuntu to the 50 gig chuck and still use the rest of the 1 TB drive in win7? | 21:02 |
Abe | ikonia: thank you for your help I really appreciate that. it works :D | 21:02 |
ikonia | Abe: you helped yourself | 21:03 |
jake10 | or will i need to use the entire 1 TB drive for ubuntu only, win7 wont read it? | 21:04 |
ikonia | jake10: zero problem with what you want | 21:04 |
auronandace | jake10: you can partition it anyway you like, you don't have to use a whole disk for ubuntu | 21:04 |
auronandace | !partition | jake10 | 21:04 |
ubottu | jake10: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PartitioningSchemes l - For partitioning programs see !GParted, or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 21:04 |
Volund | !fstab | 21:05 |
ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 21:05 |
jake10 | what i hav done is this: used win7 to format part of the 1TB drive and left the 50 GB i want to use for ubuntu as unallocated | 21:05 |
jake10 | was gonna let ubuntu installation format it and mount it | 21:06 |
auronandace | jake10: you can do that in the installer | 21:06 |
Twigler | guys | 21:06 |
Twigler | would you rather use VMware over VirtualBox | 21:06 |
Volund | I prefer VirtualBox | 21:07 |
auronandace | !polls | Twigler | 21:07 |
auronandace | Twigler: please don't hold polls here | 21:07 |
jake10 | but it doesnt let me click on the unallocated space only the entire drive (dev/sdb) | 21:07 |
Twigler | im not really holding a poll | 21:07 |
Twigler | i just do not know the difference between the two programs | 21:07 |
Twigler | lol | 21:07 |
jake10 | can i evetually point it at the 50 gb chuck, leaving the rest of the 1 TB drive alone? | 21:07 |
Twigler | if one has better performance, I would rather use that one | 21:08 |
auronandace | Twigler: vbox is open source, vmware is not | 21:08 |
ikonia | Twigler: it's really up to you to make up your own mind | 21:08 |
ikonia | Twigler: map our your requirements and see which one meets your needs best | 21:08 |
auronandace | jake10: when it comes to the partitioning stage you can select custom and partition the unallocated section for ubuntu (default is ext4) | 21:09 |
adroit_machine_ | hi, my computer has nvidia GPU and I need to install drivers for it, but in ubuntu driver manager it says "your computer requires no proprietry drivers". Need help | 21:09 |
jake10 | auron: once i finish install, will grub automatically show up when i reboot to select either win7 or ubuntu? | 21:10 |
auronandace | jake10: yes, you can also select where to install grub what at the partitioning stage too | 21:10 |
ikonia | adroit_machine_: it should offer you some packages | 21:10 |
ikonia | adroit_machine_: it's offering to get the propritary modules it needs | 21:11 |
adroit_machine_ | ikonia: it says your computer needs no property drivers | 21:11 |
ikonia | ooh, no | 21:11 |
ikonia | is it a dual gpu, inetl/nvidia ? | 21:11 |
adroit_machine_ | ikonia: my display is running at 640*800 pixels | 21:11 |
Bashing-om | adroit_machine_: Maybe to old or to new of a card ? what returns from terminal command: ' sudo ubuntu-drivers devices ' . We see about what matches the card . | 21:11 |

Doobs | You know how audio devices normally "stop" after periods of inactivity? | 21:22 |
Doobs | What's that called? | 21:23 |
Doobs | Like how there will be a light static noise after a song is over, even though nothing is playing. | 21:23 |
ikonia | ground loop ? | 21:23 |
Doobs | ikonia: Is that what it's called? | 21:24 |
ikonia | depends what you're talking about | 21:24 |
ikonia | sounds like a ground loop | 21:24 |
Bashing-om | adroit_machine_: ikonia :: Nvidia does recommend the 340 driver . | 21:25 |
adroit_machine_ | Bashing-om: ikonia: it's working now, needed a sudo-apt update | 21:25 |
[n0mad] | a ground loop would be a constant sound most likely, just more noticeable when nothing is playing | 21:25 |
Doobs | ikonia: But it stops usually about 5-10 seconds after audio inactivity. | 21:25 |
Bashing-om | adroit_machine_: Amazing how many things an 'update' resolves . :) | 21:26 |
[n0mad] | are you just hearing silence at the end of the audio? like they just turned the mic off but kept recording? | 21:26 |
[n0mad] | or is play actually done, ie no more time running | 21:27 |
t4nk978 | MonkeyDust: Didn't see thanks, so 7 is the latest free | 21:27 |

=== kpease is now known as kpease_ | ||
ikonia | t4nk978: you'll need to take this up with vmware | 21:29 |
[n0mad] | Doobs: do you have cross-fading enabled? | 21:30 |
MonkeyDust | t4nk978 it says: "you can do this later", or something similar | 21:30 |
Doobs | [n0mad]: I don't think so. | 21:30 |
[n0mad] | what are you playing the song with? | 21:31 |
t4nk978 | MonkeyDust: Yea it's free for personal use, thanks | 21:31 |
Doobs | [n0mad]: Pandora on Chrome | 21:31 |
DanOpi | Hey guys. If i'm building a HTPC what distro of ubuntu would you recommend? | 21:32 |
Doobs | [n0mad]: So I pause the music, wait 10 seconds, and then the static goes away. | 21:32 |
Volund | I have no idea what I'm doing. | 21:33 |
Doobs | [n0mad]: Is this not just the audio device closing? | 21:33 |
[n0mad] | Doobs: i don't experience that at all on my system | 21:33 |
[n0mad] | i pause right to silence | 21:33 |
t4nk978 | MonkeyDust: Do you use it, is it fast? | 21:34 |
Doobs | [n0mad]: Weird. I'll figure it out later, I guess. | 21:34 |
[n0mad] | i am on a laptop, so maybe something related to powered speakers? | 21:34 |
DanOpi | 15.04 or 14.04 for a HTPC? | 21:35 |
MonkeyDust | t4nk978 i use it for ubuntu vm's, it's faster than vbox and i cannot activate vmx or whatnot, because this old frankenstein laptop does not have that | 21:35 |
MonkeyDust | t4nk978 but vagrant/windows vm's are fast on vbox | 21:36 |

DanOpi | Can someone help me partition my SSD and HDD for Ubuntu? | 21:48 |
ubuntu-mate | hello | 21:50 |
hntty | DanOpi: You could opt to put all mountpoints on the ssd except home and swap | 21:50 |
baum | is there a live-ubuntu which starts an ssh server out of the box? | 21:50 |
DanOpi | hntty: What exactly does that mean? I'm a noob with installing OS | 21:50 |
DanOpi | hntty: I want the OS and programs on the SSD and the HHD for storage | 21:51 |
ubuntu-mate | foundation | 21:52 |
daftykins | ubuntu-mate: do you have a support question? | 21:52 |
hntty | DanOpi: How you want to partition them is a somewhat personal story. WHen you just use guided partitioning at install it will be done for you. But if you want to do it in a specific way you have to assign the mount point s yourself (e.g. / /boot /usr etcetera) | 21:52 |
DanOpi | hntty: Hmm okay... So you wouldn't partition it manually? | 21:53 |
hntty | DanOpi: No it's a good idea. But you have to have a plan. | 21:53 |
DanOpi | hntty: Is my plan detailed enough? | 21:53 |
hntty | DanOpi: So for instance on an ssd you wouldnt want a swap. Some people opt to not have a swap partition at all. | 21:54 |
DanOpi | Why wouldn't I want a swap on the ssd? | 21:54 |
hntty | DanOpi: Of course the system you want to load quickly so you want those on the ssd | 21:54 |
DanOpi | correct | 21:55 |
DanOpi | hntty: still confused | 21:56 |
hntty | DanOpi: Two reasons. Strong reason being that programs load quickly anyway on an ssd. There is no need to have the system use virtual memory(swap) for preloading that stuff | 21:56 |
DanOpi | Hmm okay | 21:56 |
hntty | DanOpi: Weak reason being that swap does a lot of writes which would shorted the lifetime of your ssd | 21:57 |
OerHeks | I would set swappines to 10 or 15https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#What_is_swappiness_and_how_do_I_change_it.3F | 21:57 |

DanOpi | HTPC usually only need 4gb so i figured i'd be fine without one | 21:58 |
daftykins | ^ +1 to always make one regardless | 21:58 |
hntty | Tbh I don't know if ubuntu has settings to account for ssd drives | 21:58 |
daftykins | mine does fine with 2GB RAM so :D | 21:58 |
ningu | I'm about to install Ubuntu on a NUC-like device. I have a couple questions, one is the bios has "os selection" with options windows 7 and windows 8.x, will that matter? | 21:58 |
DanOpi | So a swap partition or no? | 21:58 |
=== blackbat is now known as gingermousekille | ||
hntty | put swap on the hdd | 21:59 |
ningu | and the other is, this will be an HTPC (I see we're already discussing those ;) should I go with Lubuntu? | 21:59 |
hntty | That's what I would do | 21:59 |
DanOpi | kk | 21:59 |
OerHeks | indeed, swap on hdd with swapiness=10 does fine | 21:59 |
=== gingermousekille is now known as MFDOOM | ||
=== MFDOOM is now known as samthewildone | ||
daftykins | ningu: nope to the windows options | 22:00 |
hntty | DanOpi: Put everything else, except /home on the ssd | 22:00 |
ningu | daftykins: ok cool | 22:00 |
daftykins | ningu: Kodi or otherwise? | 22:00 |
ningu | daftykins: plex media server + plex home server | 22:00 |
daftykins | ah ok | 22:00 |
ningu | so I need a proper ubuntu install of some sort, I believe | 22:01 |
hntty | DanOpi: I'm not sure on what partition sizes you should use for those mount points | 22:01 |
daftykins | LTS gets my vote | 22:01 |
ningu | daftykins: so regular ubuntu lts... sure | 22:01 |
DanOpi | hntty: `120 GB SSD, 3 TB HHD | 22:01 |
ningu | I doubt it will be too slow vs. lubuntu | 22:01 |
hntty | DanOpi: Certainly /usr will need the most | 22:01 |
hntty | DanOpi: As the /usr/share directory will be in there | 22:02 |
daftykins | actually, Plex probably would benefit from not having a chunky DE on | 22:02 |
ningu | DE? | 22:02 |
ningu | desktop environment? | 22:02 |
daftykins | bingo | 22:02 |
ningu | but plex home theater is a gui app | 22:02 |
hntty | DanOpi: Which basically contains all the programs | 22:02 |
DanOpi | hntty: I will be using Kodi, Popcorn Time, Deluge/Utorrent, Chrome and a few other small programs (Spotify, Netflix, Etc). | 22:02 |
daftykins | yeah, exactly | 22:02 |
DanOpi | hntty: so i want those on the ssd | 22:03 |
lnlyrbt | qBittorent ftw | 22:03 |
hntty | DanOpi: Yes | 22:03 |
hntty | DanOpi: Programs/Applications you would like on the ssd, so they're load quickly | 22:03 |
DanOpi | Yes | 22:04 |
DanOpi | Then movies and music on HDD | 22:04 |
hntty | DanOpi: Certainly things like movies you want on the hdd | 22:04 |
hntty | DanOpi: idd | 22:04 |
DanOpi | I know what i want just don't know how Linux works haha never used it before | 22:04 |
daftykins | guess we'll be seeing a lot of you :P | 22:05 |
DanOpi | Probably... | 22:05 |
DanOpi | xD | 22:05 |
DanOpi | I have mint right now but there's no support for it so i'm trying ubuntu | 22:06 |
hntty | DanOpi: I think you do not have to assign each mount point. I think you can specify that you want /home and /swap on the hdd and then / on the sdd and have the sdd be one partition. | 22:09 |
hntty | DanOpi: But I'm not sure. | 22:09 |
DanOpi | Ahh i have no clue either haha | 22:09 |
DanOpi | can i wait till i'm partitioning it and walk through it? | 22:09 |
hntty | DanOpi: Of course. I'll gladly standby. No garuantees though :p | 22:10 |
hntty | guarantees* | 22:11 |
DanOpi | hntty: cool cool | 22:11 |
hntty | DanOpi: Are you doing dual boot? | 22:12 |
DanOpi | hntty: No | 22:12 |
hntty | k | 22:12 |
mario_ | hello | 22:14 |
daftykins | hi | 22:15 |
hntty | DanOpi: The thing is that 120gb is a lot of space to fill with a linux os. | 22:15 |
DanOpi | hntty: What would you recommend doing? | 22:15 |
hntty | DanOpi: Well that's just it. There is no better option imo | 22:16 |
MonkeyDust | DanOpi 120GB leaves you enough space for a backup partition | 22:16 |
DanOpi | hntty: Okay that's fine | 22:16 |
DanOpi | MonkeyDust: Backup of what? | 22:16 |
MonkeyDust | DanOpi of your linux installation | 22:16 |
MonkeyDust | or your /home partition | 22:17 |
DanOpi | MonkeyDust: Do those usually get lost/messed up? | 22:17 |
hntty | DanOpi: I suppose you could opt to just put home on ssd anyway | 22:17 |
Promille | Hi guys. The sound indicator in unity(x64 15.04) stays at muted even though the internal speakers play sound. Though I can not adjust the volume level with the indicator or with hardware keys on the laptop case(which I was able to before) Any suggestions? | 22:17 |
MonkeyDust | DanOpi it's always wise to have a backup | 22:17 |
hntty | DanOpi: And then just keep really big files like music and movies on the hdd | 22:17 |
DanOpi | MonkeyDust: Hmmm okay | 22:18 |
DanOpi | That's all I'll have though. Is music and movies | 22:18 |
hntty | DanOpi: This would mean that you just use guided partitioning on install :))) | 22:18 |
hntty | DanOpi: except the swap of course | 22:18 |
DanOpi | if the swap lowers lifetime of drives i'll just skip it | 22:19 |
Bashing-om | DanOpi: As daftykins advises, a bit of swap is cheap insurance. | 22:20 |
DanOpi | Bashing-om: Fair enough | 22:21 |
hntty | DanOpi: In my experience, 60gb for linux+applications is way enough. Not so on windows | 22:21 |
daftykins | quite honestly people all over are reading into this "OMG don't write to your SSDs!" scaremongering that tech sites have fostered | 22:21 |
daftykins | just use your hardware and live your life, it's not going to be around forever | 22:21 |
DanOpi | Truu | 22:22 |
Dave666 | Hi, If I install 14.10 over the top of 12.10, will I still be able to use the same RAID5 array ? | 22:22 |
baum | hntty: not if you are working with different APIs...then your storage goes *poof* | 22:22 |
baum | *SDKs | 22:22 |
Bashing-om | ! utopic | Dave666 | 22:23 |
ubottu | Dave666: Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) was the 21st release of Ubuntu. Support ended on July 23rd, 2015. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/utopic | 22:23 |
hntty | baum: What type of api's? | 22:23 |
=== Dhs92 is now known as Yukkii | ||
daftykins | Dave666: both versions you have mentioned are EOL | 22:24 |
hntty | DanOpi: the reason being of course that I have big games installed on windows. But even if I have windows with just office and a few more applications I am at the limit on a 60gb partition | 22:24 |
=== Yukkii is now known as Yukiku | ||
Dave666 | 14.04.03 then? | 22:24 |
baum | hntty: well especially apis, i kept Qt, java, a SailFishSDK, android sdk, and a few others on my notebook, which made me run out of space quite easily | 22:25 |
hntty | DanOpi: Do if you plan to use steam on you could run into the same problem of course | 22:25 |
baum | *sdks.... | 22:25 |
* baum keeps mixing things up today | 22:25 | |
daftykins | Dave666: fresh install, can't see your rAID setup from here so can't comment | 22:25 |
Promille | Hi guys. The sound indicator in unity(x64 15.04) stays at muted even though the internal speakers play sound. Though I can not adjust the volume level with the indicator or with hardware keys on the laptop case(which I was able to before) Any suggestions? | 22:25 |
DanOpi | hntty: I only have an apu (AMD A10-7700k) so i probably won't be doing much gaming | 22:25 |
Bashing-om | Dave666: +10 for LTS 14.04 . | 22:26 |
hntty | DanOpi: baum Makes a fair point I guess. | 22:26 |
Dave666 | daftykins: My question is, is there any change in the way RAID5 arrays work from 12.10 to 14.x? I have 16TB of RAID5 storage (5 x 4TB disks) and want to avoid having to move all the data across to another machine. If I can just change the boot drive (not on the RAID) then I'll just reinstall | 22:27 |
daftykins | Dave666: ah excellent, your OS is off the array - so just disconnect the member disks, clean install 14.04.3, then restore the array operation after. simple. | 22:28 |
baum | on a productive system data adds up quite easily - disk space is cheap....so meh :) | 22:28 |
Dave666 | daftykins: Yeah, just wanted to confirm the 14.x kernel raid drivers are backward compatible with 12.x | 22:28 |

Cagelin | Hi guys. I have a really strange problem attempting to install Ubuntu. I somehow managed to get Xubuntu running, but I'm forced to run on an older kernel. I get the following error during boot (http://pastebin.com/2DuT6zBm). Once booted, I can't use my keyboard and mouse at all. If I then reboot my PC, my actual BIOS complains that it can't find my USB devices anymore. I have to completely cut power from the PC. Once booted back into Windows, everything wor | 22:29 |
hntty | baum: -ly | 22:29 |
Dave666 | daftykins: Hmm, thats' an idea thanks :) | 22:30 |
baum | hntty: thanks :) | 22:30 |
daftykins | Cagelin: your message was cut off, your paste doesn't mention which kernels | 22:31 |
hntty | baum: Kein problem :p | 22:31 |
Cagelin | Ah, apologies. I'll paste a larger chunk | 22:31 |
Cagelin | hang on | 22:31 |
genii | daftykins: Looks like it's trying to use usb3 xhci driver, I wonder if the devices are usb3 or other | 22:32 |
daftykins | genii: good call! | 22:33 |
daftykins | Cagelin: standard peripherals like mouse + kb in a USB 3 tends to be an unwise move | 22:33 |
* baum is glad that he can always fall back to PS/2 with his keyboard :) | 22:34 | |
hntty | So is ubuntu going to stick with systemd or will it choose upstart again in a year. I'm wondering which one I should learn about.. | 22:34 |
hntty | Frankly, for a moment I was under the impression that systemd was something of the past. | 22:35 |
Cagelin | daftykins: http://pastebin.com/fQrcejjs | 22:35 |
Cagelin | I'm not using the USB3 ports | 22:35 |
Cagelin | they're marked in red on my IO shield. Had problems with them in the past, even in windows. So yeah :p | 22:35 |
baum | hntty: just like Delphi, i'm recently meeting a lot of people who are actually using it | 22:36 |
Volund | AHHHH PANIC | 22:36 |
Volund | my desktop VANISHED | 22:36 |
daftykins | Cagelin: is this 15.10? | 22:36 |
hntty | baum: Hehe. WHere? | 22:37 |
Cagelin | Yes | 22:37 |
Volund | I have windows but the background turned black and I have no taskbar etc | 22:37 |
Cagelin | But the same problem happens with 14.04 and 15.04 | 22:37 |
daftykins | Cagelin: you need #ubuntu+1 then | 22:37 |
hntty | baum: Nothing wrong with delphi, mind you | 22:37 |
daftykins | with what kernels? | 22:37 |
Cagelin | any :s | 22:37 |
Cagelin | This is the first distro I managed to get working on my rig :/ | 22:37 |
daftykins | what is it? | 22:37 |
Cagelin | Xubuntu 15.10 beta. | 22:37 |
baum | hntty: met them at a big company being db-guys maintaining the backend | 22:38 |
daftykins | no, the system :) | 22:38 |
Cagelin | Oh haha | 22:38 |
Cagelin | MSI z97 gaming 7. Intel core i7 4790k. 32gb | 22:38 |
baum | Volund: did you try turning it off and on again? | 22:38 |
Cagelin | If thats what you mean | 22:38 |
daftykins | latest BIOS? | 22:38 |
Cagelin | yeps | 22:38 |
Cagelin | updated less than an hour ago | 22:38 |
daftykins | did you load defaults and power cycle after updating? | 22:38 |
Cagelin | yeah, not that I wanted to though. I was forced to clear CMOS after linux had its way with my USB devices :( | 22:39 |
hntty | baum: One of my teachers was a long time delphi programmer. He wasn't really a teacher either, that was just an in between jobs thing for him. | 22:39 |
Moonlightning | Hey all. I've got an Ubuntu box set up as a netbox. Something just rebooted it (I'll investigate that later…) and some of the services didn't come up quite right. The first thing is that it's supposed to bridge its two downstream-facing interfaces (eth1 and wlan0) into one (br0) that's used for things like DHCP. For some reason, though, when it came up, eth1 was included in the bridge, but not wlan0. | 22:39 |
daftykins | that seems unlikely | 22:39 |
Volund | baum: I just began a huge file transfer. D: not so keen on doing that | 22:39 |
Moonlightning | I've pastebinned /etc/network/interfaces: https://gist.github.com/BlacklightShining/9e897888593ba791084c | 22:39 |
Cagelin | Well, after that error appears and the system boots... If I then reboot, my bios gets stuck on a POST "error 99" message. | 22:40 |
baum | hntty: well, to each it's own i guess :) | 22:40 |
Cagelin | I need to cut power, push the clear cmos button on the back of my PC and then it lets me boot again | 22:40 |
daftykins | Cagelin: pulled the mains entirely to give the controllers a reset? | 22:40 |
Cagelin | What do you mean? | 22:40 |
Cagelin | oh | 22:40 |
Cagelin | cut power | 22:40 |
Cagelin | yeah | 22:40 |
Cagelin | that worked once | 22:40 |
daftykins | as in cable out of PSU, maybe even cables out of motherboard | 22:41 |
baum | Volund: in this case, wait and pray :) | 22:41 |
Cagelin | But still the question remains... how do I get ubuntu (or xubuntu) working on my rig with just default settings? Right now I'm forced to select the older (4.1.x) kernel from the boot menu. | 22:42 |
daftykins | well i'm not going to be commenting on a non-released distro, sorry. | 22:42 |
Cagelin | I really have no idea what to look for here, since I'm not _that_ experienced with linux. | 22:42 |
Cagelin | Well, like I said, I get this _exact_ same error using Ubuntu 14.04 | 22:43 |
hntty | baum: I still have to meet one of them cobol maintainers. I hear cobol code is still ubiquitous, though wrapped in java infrastructure. To be honest, I'm wondering if it isn't just cool story that people perpetuate :p | 22:43 |
Cagelin | only difference is that 14.04 won't even let me boot. | 22:43 |
daftykins | try your best, then beyond that maybe MSI have no love for Linux | 22:43 |
Cagelin | Yeah, Im starting to think that as well :( | 22:43 |
daftykins | Cagelin: well whilst your word i don't disbelieve, they're different kernels - so there's no point trying to help with one when it simply isn't the same as the other | 22:43 |
hntty | baum: s/cool/a cool/. | 22:43 |
Cagelin | MSI + Nvidia in SLI setup + Linux = disaster :( | 22:44 |
daftykins | you're running SLI right now? | 22:44 |
Cagelin | yeah | 22:44 |
Cagelin | it works in 15.10 | 22:44 |
daftykins | ugh | 22:44 |
Cagelin | no drivers installed yet though | 22:44 |
daftykins | likely there's some parameter raining on your parade | 22:44 |
daftykins | but attempting to do high end stuff with bleeding edge Linux is an exercise in masochism | 22:44 |
DanOpi | Okay i'm installing Ubuntu now | 22:44 |
hntty | DanOpi: okidoki | 22:44 |
baum | hntty: actually i'm seriously considering to learn it - just to scare of js-folks, but well, time is a way too valuable =/ | 22:45 |
Volund | I'm not sure how to restart my equivalent to 'explorer.exe' but that is basically what I need to do here. | 22:45 |
baum | *off | 22:45 |
Cagelin | Well, I would gladly install a stable release if it would let me :') | 22:45 |
daftykins | sounded like it installed fine but didn't boot without quirks | 22:45 |
Cagelin | I don't suppose I can "downgrade" this installation to 14.04 or even 15.04 right? | 22:45 |
daftykins | so... different answer each time :) | 22:45 |
Cagelin | No, I can't even boot the live cd | 22:45 |
daftykins | nope no downgrades | 22:45 |
Cagelin | meh | 22:45 |
daftykins | with nomodeset? | 22:45 |
* baum just realized that this is the ubuntu channel | 22:45 | |
Cagelin | yeah | 22:45 |
daftykins | you'd need one card in to install likely | 22:46 |
Cagelin | Yeah, thats the only thing I haven't tried. | 22:46 |
daftykins | wat | 22:46 |
Cagelin | Oh well, it's weekend. Might as well give it a go | 22:46 |
daftykins | that'd be my #1 | 22:46 |
Cagelin | pull one card out...physically | 22:46 |
baum | Cagelin: what exactly is the problem with the new kernel? | 22:46 |
Cagelin | baum, the latest kernel bricks my USB devices (keyboard + Mouse) | 22:46 |
DanOpi | okay so i'm erasing all previous partitions | 22:46 |
baum | Cagelin: and you are sure that it's the kernel, not some driver? | 22:47 |
Cagelin | total power cut works sometimes. clear CMOS fixes it guaranteed. This is based on what I experenced the past couple of hours at least. | 22:47 |
Cagelin | Well, I'm running a fresh install. Selecting the 4.1.0 kernel lets me run everything just fine :s | 22:47 |
hntty | baum: Idk, it could be a mastercard vs priceless thing :)) | 22:47 |
DanOpi | hntty: so what should be the first partition on the ssd? | 22:47 |
Cagelin | baum, since I'm running on 2 NVidia cards, ubuntu 14.04 and 15.04 are a disaster. So like daftykins suggested, I'm going to give it another go with just one card installed. | 22:48 |
genii | Cagelin: Does your computer have some BIOS option to disable USB3/XHCI ? I might try that if it does | 22:48 |
Cagelin | Yeah, I disabled xhci | 22:49 |
genii | Hm | 22:49 |
Cagelin | that fixes it for the 4.1.0 kernel, but not for the latest one | 22:49 |
=== siree[SF]bob is now known as sireebob | ||
baum | Cagelin: just wondering, what do you actually want to do with your computer | 22:49 |
baum | ? | 22:49 |
Cagelin | Dualboot windows / ubuntu | 22:49 |
DanOpi | hntty: Size, Primary or Logical, begin or end, use as..., mount point are my options | 22:49 |
Cagelin | windows for gaming/media stuff. ubuntu for develping | 22:49 |
Cagelin | we're running ubuntu in the office as well, so I would like to have a similar setup at home | 22:50 |
baum | ubuntu int he office? nice! | 22:50 |
Cagelin | yep :_ | 22:50 |

Cagelin | phpstorm | 22:50 |
baum | pff | 22:50 |
Cagelin | :D | 22:50 |
hntty | DanOpi: If I'm not mistaken you should be able to partition the hdd into a 2-4gb for swap and just make one partition for the ssd | 22:50 |
baum | their new licencing model killed them for me.... | 22:51 |
hntty | DanOpi: And the rest of the hdd for storage | 22:51 |
=== michael__ is now known as Guest11785 | ||
DanOpi | How do i do that? xD | 22:51 |
=== Guest11785 is now known as AdorableGNU | ||
hntty | DanOpi: And then after partitioning you should be able to choose mount points | 22:51 |
Cagelin | Most people are still on Eclipse in our office, but some of us just bought the personal license, since you can use that for work purposes as well :) | 22:51 |
daftykins | lets not get off topic | 22:51 |
Cagelin | Anyway, before I fall asleep, I'm going to give ubuntu 15.04 another go with one gfx card | 22:52 |
daftykins | you can chat in #ubuntu-offtopic :P | 22:52 |
hntty | DanOpi: Then just choose / for sdd and /swap for hdd | 22:52 |
DanOpi | Hmm | 22:52 |
Cagelin | I'll get back here in a bit if I discover something new | 22:52 |
Cagelin | thanks for the info, daftykins! | 22:52 |
hntty | DanOpi: I think the installer will crate every other directory under / (on the ssd) | 22:53 |
DanOpi | I want to manually do it | 22:53 |
alex____2 | hello world | 22:53 |
hntty | DanOpi: e.g. /home /usr etcetera | 22:53 |
DanOpi | when i let it do it, it messed some things up | 22:53 |
alex____2 | how is everyone today? | 22:53 |
hntty | DanOpi: The thing is that there isn't really a reason to specify _every_ mount point unless you have a special purpose with it | 22:54 |
DanOpi | Yeah not really. SSD is for OS and Programs. HDD is for files and media. | 22:54 |
DanOpi | beyond that as long as i can create folders and organize i'm fine | 22:55 |
Ben64 | so put / on the ssd, /home on hdd | 22:55 |
DanOpi | but idk how to do that while partitioning | 22:55 |
hntty | DanOpi: So there isn't really a reason to specify /boot /usr /bin etcetera. Unless you have like a special purpose that you want to be able to switch those mount points. | 22:55 |
DanOpi | how big do i make those though? | 22:55 |
DanOpi | And what is their "use as" | 22:56 |
Ben64 | depends how much stuff you want to have installed / stored | 22:56 |
DanOpi | 120 GB SSD, 3 TB HDD | 22:56 |
DanOpi | is it bad to use it all? | 22:56 |
Ben64 | no | 22:56 |
hntty | DanOpi: not at all | 22:56 |
DanOpi | so what... 100 GB for / | 22:56 |
DanOpi | then i need boot and efi stuff right? | 22:57 |
hntty | efi is not you concern | 22:57 |
hntty | your* | 22:57 |
baum | yes, use coreboot instead | 22:57 |
baum | uefi has to die | 22:57 |
chris66 | HI! can some one help me with screen config? | 22:57 |
Volund | okay screw it | 22:57 |
DanOpi | idk how to do any of it... haha | 22:58 |
hntty | baum: Let's not make this installation into a political riot :p | 22:58 |
baum | chris66: man xrandr - there you go :) | 22:58 |
bprompt | DanOpi: I have a 120 ssd, with 3 partitions in it, *nix OS is on a 30gbs partition, and I have another one for data dumping, the OS itself only takes around 8gbs | 22:58 |
Volund | so I rebooted and I got the black screen again, on both monitors, which are now behaving as the same monitor | 22:58 |
chris66 | thanks | 22:58 |
DanOpi | Will / be primary or logical? Start at begining? Use as? | 22:58 |
hntty | DanOpi: One thing you need to keep in mind is this. Most of the mount points, you do not need to assign. The installer will place them under / | 22:59 |
bprompt | DanOpi: you'd be using mbr type of partitions, so you're limited to 4 primary ones, you won't be making as many, so might as well make it primary, logical ones, are when you'd be having more than 4 in the hdd | 22:59 |
baum | hntty: alright, i'll call it a day, let's start the riot tomorrow | 22:59 |
Volund | I have no idea how to troubleshoot this so I'm going to just switch to Ubuntu and deal with Unity. ASSUMING someone can tell me if Ubuntu's Unity supports VNC? | 22:59 |
Volund | or something similar I can use on Windows or remote control | 22:59 |
DanOpi | what about the use as option? | 23:00 |
Volund | for * | 23:00 |
chris66 | I installed xubuntu but there is nobody awake in the xubuntu chan, my problem is that I connect a larger screen to my laptop with Xubuntu 15.04, I turn the laptop screen off and use the larger one as primary, but when I reboot, it forgets all settings and both screens come on, and they are both white so I never get to the login | 23:00 |
daftykins | !manual | DanOpi i'm sure someone will help, but really you can do this all yourself with the manual | 23:00 |

edimax | Hi, I have a really simple networking setup but am unsure how to configure the ip addresses, netmasks etc on my computer shown in the diagram. I've configured the router to assign a static IP address for the computer. I've put a diagram here: http://pastebin.com/Ca0LUpH3 , any help would be much appreciated. | 23:00 |
edimax | the computer is running ubuntu | 23:01 |
DanOpi | xD | 23:01 |
daftykins | edimax: you can't be on 192.168.x.x if the router is on 10.1.1.1 | 23:01 |
daftykins | those are completely different networks :) | 23:01 |
daftykins | edimax: also ##networking is more apt since this is OS support | 23:01 |
edimax | can't I add a second IP address? | 23:01 |
edimax | I've done it before with a windows computer | 23:01 |
chris66 | anyone have some idea how to solve this problem? | 23:02 |
Volund | HELLO does Ubuntu 15.04 support VNC? | 23:02 |
DanOpi | daftykins: didn't find anything in there about partitioning | 23:02 |
daftykins | !patience | Volund entitled attitudes will not be tolerated here | 23:02 |
ubottu | Volund entitled attitudes will not be tolerated here: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 23:02 |
hntty | DanOpi: Just partition the ssd into one disk -> partition the hdd into a swap and a storage. Put mount point / on the sdd, swap on hdd 4gb and the continue | 23:02 |
daftykins | DanOpi: o rly. | 23:02 |
DanOpi | daftykins: not specifics such as i need | 23:02 |
bprompt | DanOpi: as I said, I have an 120 ssd, just make a couple of primary ones... well, one for /swap if you need, it, so 3 primary partitions, the install on an ssd takes about 5mins | 23:03 |
DanOpi | hntty: i don't know what to set as Use as... | 23:03 |
daftykins | chris66: when they're white, try toggling to TTY1 with Ctrl+Alt+F1 then back again with Alt+F7 | 23:03 |
hntty | DanOpi: I'm going to start an installation in virtual box to see what you are talking about | 23:03 |
Ben64 | DanOpi: what are the options | 23:04 |
daftykins | DanOpi: what is left beyond Ext4, / as mount point, primary partition - and so on? :) | 23:04 |
chris66 | I could possibly jump out of x but that is a temporary fix, there is a problem in the configuration on xubuntu, I never experienced this on ubuntu with xfce | 23:05 |
daftykins | chris66: just try it | 23:05 |
chris66 | thanks dafty I will, btw, can you explain what TTY1 is? | 23:06 |
DanOpi | Ext4 journaling file system, Ext3 " ", Ext2 file system, FAT16, FAT32, swap, reserved bios boot area, efi boot partition | 23:06 |
hntty | DanOpi: one sec | 23:07 |
daftykins | chris66: console logins, usually 6 of 'em - F1 through F6. | 23:07 |
hntty | DanOpi: Btw use ext4 for everything except swap | 23:07 |
chris66 | ok, I will try now, thanks:) | 23:07 |
hntty | DanOpi: unlesss you want a partition to be readable for windows | 23:07 |
Volund | Hrm. Ubuntu or Lubuntu.... Lubuntu would probably be nicer for my purposes but as I recall it didn't like my USB headphones... unsure. I'll try it again | 23:07 |
Volund | I am just disgusted by my loss in productivity. although I think the problem might be video drivers. | 23:10 |
DanOpi | hntty: hmm okay | 23:10 |
hntty | DanOpi: Okey so which disk are you at? | 23:12 |
chris66 | <daftykins> it didn't work, when I get back with ctrl alt F7 the screens are still white and hanging in limboland:/ | 23:12 |
daftykins | chris66: ah well. what graphics + driver? | 23:13 |
DanOpi | hntty: Working on it then will post a picture before moving on | 23:14 |
chris66 | I didn't install it yet | 23:14 |
chris66 | how do I check? | 23:14 |
hntty | DanOpi: So you pick the sdd first, you just choose use as ext4, and mount point / Don't change anything else | 23:14 |
hntty | DanOpi: Then you can choose the hdd | 23:14 |
* Volund tries to revive Kubuntu, thinks the problem miht be fglrx-updates | 23:15 | |
daftykins | chris66: wait what? so this is all from a live session? | 23:15 |
AbdoTGM50 | Hi can ummm someone tell me what this means https://www.dropbox.com/s/0lvo5gwbrqo01ba/20150919_020121.jpg?dl=0 | 23:15 |
Cagelin | Hey daftykins. I'm currently inside the live-cd environment of Ubuntu 15.04. I pulled out one of my gfx cards and got in using nomodeset. So huuray for that :p | 23:15 |
chris66 | hmm, live session? | 23:15 |
Cagelin | Now I get the following error during installation: The 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into /target/. Without the GRUB boot loader, the installed system will not boot. | 23:15 |
Cagelin | Yeah | 23:15 |
daftykins | EFI or not EFI boot? | 23:16 |
hntty | DanOpi: You make a partition of 4gb, and at "use as" choose swap area | 23:16 |
daftykins | chris66: none of this fault resolving is a worthy use of anyones time then | 23:16 |
DanOpi | hntty: I put a 500 mb EFI boot, 4 gb swap, and the rest on / for my ssd | 23:16 |
DanOpi | hntty: I put the full 3 TB to /mnt/SG3TB ext4 | 23:16 |
DanOpi | sound good? | 23:16 |
daftykins | don't use /mnt | 23:17 |
chris66 | <daftykins> I don't know those terms, I'm not very good at linux, what do you mean by live session? I just trying to start my computer and login with my large screen | 23:17 |
daftykins | chris66: right and you say it's not installed, so is this just booting off a flash drive or DVD? | 23:17 |
DanOpi | why not use /mnt? | 23:18 |
Moonlightning | I have an Ethernet bridge configured in /etc/network/interfaces, but one of the interfaces was missing from it when it got set up automatically on boot. | 23:18 |

Volund | gargh | 23:18 |
Volund | even shift-recovery mode isn't coming up now | 23:18 |
daftykins | DanOpi: because it's against convention, /media/mountpoint would be better - also don't use caps | 23:18 |
chris66 | <daftykins> no I mean I didn't install the nvidia drivers yet, this is some driver ubuntu provide, I don't know what they are called | 23:18 |
Volund | I'll just use Ubuntu since that's what Steam recommends. I don't think I can install SteamOS :P | 23:19 |
DanOpi | daftykins: hmm okaky | 23:19 |
daftykins | chris66: well you didn't even say it's nvidia you're running *facepalm* | 23:19 |
chris66 | <daftykins> what I mean this is not the nvidia closed driver, it's the ubuntu one | 23:19 |
hntty | DanOpi: 500mb is way enough | 23:19 |
daftykins | chris66: yeah so nouveau. so right, proprietary nvidia will work better with external screens. depends what hardware this is | 23:20 |
chris66 | <daftykins> sorry about that, but I didn't think this had to do with my grapics at all, since it works on ubuntu but not on xubuntu | 23:20 |
Volund | I gve up. I'll deal with Unity so long as I can get some kind of desktop sharing going later. | 23:20 |
DanOpi | could i do /sg3tb/mountpoint? | 23:20 |
hntty | DanOpi: And SG3Tb is your own mount point I presume. | 23:20 |
hntty | DanOpi: Good stuff | 23:20 |
Volund | if all the support goes to Ubuntu it's better to just go with the flow. @_@ | 23:20 |

ningu | my new HTPC seems to be working on Ubuntu except for one thing: it connects to wifi then drops it after a few min, and I have to restart to regain the connection. any idea how to debug? it's a realtek wifi chip, can get the exact model number... | 23:21 |
chris66 | <daftykins> so you think I should try to install nvidia first? | 23:21 |
daftykins | i am confident yes. | 23:21 |
hntty | daftykins: Why not use /mnt? | 23:22 |
=== deSouza is now known as dez | ||
mlvmhn | how do i list users from a certain country in my irc client? | 23:22 |
hntty | DanOpi: I suppose you can just put it under / | 23:22 |
DanOpi | INstalling already haha | 23:23 |
hntty | DanOpi: It really seems fine to me. | 23:23 |
tgm4883 | The proper place might be /srv/ | 23:23 |
daftykins | mlvmhn: you don't - also that's not an Ubuntu question. | 23:23 |
hntty | DanOpi: I doubt you'll run into any conflict below /mnt | 23:23 |
ningu | rtl8723be is the chip. | 23:23 |
mlvmhn | my bad, but Konversation is an irc client running in Ubuntu? | 23:23 |
daftykins | hntty: regardless, policy is to be followed :) | 23:24 |
chris66 | <daftykins> I don't think the graphics is the reason but I will install the nvidia drivers and see if it helps, I probably be back:) | 23:24 |
daftykins | mlvmhn: my cat could fart near my computer, wouldn't make it an ubuntu issue. | 23:24 |
daftykins | mlvmhn: #freenode please | 23:24 |
hntty | daftykins: Can you put it under /media? | 23:24 |
tgm4883 | Yea, /srv or /media depending on if it's removable or not | 23:24 |
daftykins | hntty: isn't that what i said? :) | 23:25 |
DanOpi | Too late.. xD | 23:25 |
tgm4883 | Well you can technically put it anywhere, but the proper place for externally connected storage would be /media | 23:25 |
DanOpi | i did /mnt/sg3 oh well | 23:26 |
hntty | I'm guessing the file manager works better with /media as well | 23:26 |
daftykins | DanOpi: pay attention in future | 23:26 |
DanOpi | just curious... why does it matter? | 23:26 |
hntty | DanOpi: Now that you've done it once, you can redo it quickly :pp | 23:26 |
DanOpi | It's an internal HDD. Not external | 23:27 |
daftykins | yes we graped that bit | 23:27 |
daftykins | grasped too | 23:27 |
tgm4883 | /mnt would be for temporary mounted filesystems | 23:27 |
tgm4883 | DanOpi: then /srv would be the proper place | 23:27 |
hntty | daftykins: grokked* | 23:28 |
DanOpi | Can i reformat the HDD? since nothings on it or do i have to do it all at once again? | 23:28 |
tgm4883 | but let's be real here. We're talking about where to mount extra storage for a user to store random files on a single user system right? | 23:28 |
DanOpi | Yep haha | 23:29 |
daftykins | hntty: no, you can say that - but it's not a correction | 23:29 |
hntty | daftykins: You're worse than ##c :p | 23:30 |
tgm4883 | DanOpi: Then /totallynotadultvideos | 23:30 |
daftykins | hntty: in that i don't tolerate idiots? never been there | 23:30 |

tgm4883 | DanOpi: but yea, if you wanted to mount it in the proper location, there are different mount points for different types of storage | 23:31 |
genii | Oops, not that one | 23:31 |
tgm4883 | hntty: I usually point people at http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.pdf | 23:31 |

mlvmhn | my system is hanging sometimes without reason | 23:33 |
hntty | tgm4883: Nice. I'll have a look | 23:33 |
mlvmhn | how come? | 23:33 |
tgm4883 | mlvmhn: bad power supply | 23:33 |
mlvmhn | not in the mood for jokes sorry | 23:33 |
tgm4883 | mlvmhn: well you didn't give us a whole lot to go on, and having a bad power supply could cause a system hang | 23:34 |
tgm4883 | but whatever | 23:34 |
hntty | DanOpi: You did it! | 23:34 |
mlvmhn | my system is Ubuntu 14.04 lts, 4 GB RAM, 3.16 Ghz dual-core processor | 23:34 |

DanOpi | hntty: thanks for the help | 23:35 |
DanOpi | hntty: now to customize it and install everything | 23:35 |
hntty | DanOpi: The other mount point are for if you want to do something insane like switch the /usr mount point to another disk or partition. | 23:35 |
DanOpi | hntty: gotcha | 23:35 |
hntty | DanOpi: Now they are just placed below / as normal directories | 23:36 |
DanOpi | Yeah i was able to find my HDD fine | 23:36 |
mlvmhn | all suddenly the system hangs without reason, often when maximising a windows | 23:36 |

hntty | DanOpi: Well you can always go for slackware or lfs :p | 23:38 |
* tgm4883 shakes head | 23:38 | |
DanOpi | hntty: What are those? | 23:38 |
hntty | DanOpi: Other linux distributions, for people that well.. have more time on their hands :p | 23:39 |
daftykins | mlvmhn: you got a serious reply from a good regular helper, so unless you contribute logs or you go memtest - you're not going to get anything better. drop the attitude. | 23:39 |
Moonlightning | How do I get the system to use a different default interface? For some reason, the default route was set via br0 instead of eth0. | 23:39 |
ningu | fixed my wifi issue with a bit of googling. :) | 23:39 |
jlim | hey guys | 23:40 |
hntty | Moonlightning: br0 is a name for an interface to bridged network connection | 23:40 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: the default route is set when a DHCP option 'router' or interfaces file 'gateway' is set | 23:40 |
MannyLNJ | Hello, I need to know how to harden my Ubuntu install. I made the IP of the system the DMZ IP on my router. I know this is unsafe unless I lock down the system. | 23:40 |
jlim | is there a channel for ubuntu mate? | 23:41 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh. | 23:41 |
daftykins | MannyLNJ: that was really silly, just port forward. | 23:41 |
tgm4883 | daftykins: +1 | 23:41 |
mlvmhn | daftykins; what "good" reply was that you mean? | 23:41 |
MannyLNJ | daftykins, I couldn't get port fowarding to work right on my ISP's router for PPTP and SSH | 23:42 |
daftykins | mlvmhn: logs or memtest | 23:42 |
daftykins | chop chop | 23:42 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: so I probably don't want this `gateway` under br0. | 23:42 |
skynetguy | Hello i am having bugs in a browsers for ubuntu firefox, google chrome and chromium on 12.04 precise??? | 23:43 |
daftykins | MannyLNJ: well SSH should've been easy. | 23:43 |
skynetguy | is this happening as well on 14.04 | 23:43 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: Is this the hostapd br0 ? | 23:43 |
hntty | Moonlightning: Are you on a router or something? | 23:43 |
Volund | ... my software center just turned grey and unresponsive...weird. | 23:43 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: no? hostapd is set to run on wlan0. | 23:44 |
Moonlightning | hntty: I know br0 is a bridge. I made it. | 23:44 |
Moonlightning | hntty: yes, this box is a router (and switch, and WAP) | 23:44 |
* Volund installs PlayOnLinux, Chromium, Synaptic... | 23:44 | |
TJ- | Moonlightning: I thought you were bridging wlan0 and eth0 as br0 though | 23:44 |
skynetguy | Is anybody else having browser issues on Trusty Tahr??? | 23:44 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: I'm bridging wlan0 and eth/1/ as br0. eth0 goes upstream. | 23:45 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: if br0 is 10.0.0.1 then you shouldn't be also doing "gateway 10.0.0.1" on that I/F | 23:45 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: that's means make that default gateway for /this/ box. | 23:45 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: my typo, sorry | 23:45 |
Moonlightning | Not for DHCP /clients/ to this box. That's a completely different option in a completely different config file. | 23:45 |
* Moonlightning facepalms at self. | 23:45 | |
Moonlightning | Okay, that actually makes more sense. | 23:45 |
skynetguy | I dont know why ubuntu is always releasing pae's | 23:46 |
ningu | how do I ensure that I have the correct/optimal video drivers installed? | 23:46 |
Moonlightning | How do I make eth0 the default interface, then? I can't put a `gateway` line under it 'cos it's `dhcp`… | 23:46 |
ningu | I am trying to run plex home theater, but it seems to be flickering. | 23:46 |
TJ- | MonkeyDust: 'gateway' is the next-hop on that link. You can't have an I/F's next hop be itself unless you want endless loops :) | 23:46 |
jcstarken | there is a usb image writer in mint, I can not find it for ubuntu 14.04lts thank you | 23:46 |
tgm4883 | Moonlightning: just don't put it under the other one | 23:46 |
ningu | ah just found https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 23:46 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: tabcomplete mistake? | 23:47 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: if eth0 comes up via DHCP, and the DHCP server sends the option 'router' that'll be set as the system default route, done | 23:47 |
Moonlightning | tgm4883: er…okay. I'll try that. | 23:47 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: ah, cool. Thanks! | 23:47 |
skynetguy | Is anybody else out there having buggy issues with their browser for 14.04LTS | 23:47 |
* Moonlightning ticks another box on his checklist. | 23:47 | |
skynetguy | ??? | 23:47 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: grrr, my typing!! | 23:47 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: define buggy | 23:47 |
Moonlightning | TJ- :) | 23:47 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: as if that wasn't bad enough, I tend to show up in places that already have `Moon*`s and `Moonlight*`s :) | 23:48 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, firefox sometimes artifacts, google chrome loses profile then after a while wont load same for chromium??? | 23:48 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: I swear I have dyslexic eyes... I'm sure I saw your nickname there :) | 23:49 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: I don't have any of those issues, but I only use chrome | 23:49 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, im on 12.04lts | 23:49 |
tgm4883 | I'm on 14.04 and 15.04 | 23:49 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, you mean google chrome or chromium?? | 23:49 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: google chrome | 23:49 |
Volund | Hrm. | 23:50 |
Volund | I think what's making my computer explode is the proprietary AMD drivers | 23:50 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, do you use generic pae | 23:50 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: for the kernel? | 23:51 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, yeah | 23:51 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: no, I use 64-bit | 23:51 |
skinux | Weird problem. I installed Ubuntu to a partition, unfortunately, there are boot menu entries for it. | 23:52 |
Moonlightning | Last thing, #ubuntu . I have bridged eth1 and wlan0 under br0 in /etc/network/interfaces ( https://gist.github.com/BlacklightShining/9e897888593ba791084c ), but when I reboot, wlan0 isn't on the bridge. | 23:52 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, i always thought the 64 bit versions didnt work as well as the 32big | 23:52 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: lol | 23:52 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: I'm not sure why you think that. It's been better since about 2008 | 23:52 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, and also most packages come in 32bit versions | 23:52 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: most packages come in 64-bit versions too | 23:53 |
ningu | hrm... so there's an intel graphics for ubuntu installer? | 23:53 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, maybe i'll upgrade to 14.04 64bit | 23:53 |
ningu | it's not a deb? | 23:53 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: you have 'iface wlan0 ...' commented out | 23:53 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: perhaps you should. You're operating on decade old information | 23:53 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: should I not? | 23:53 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: not sure! but its worth trying :) | 23:53 |
* Moonlightning doesn't quite understand this. Looks at the `interfaces` manualpage again. | 23:53 | |
skynetguy | tgm4883, also my update manager says 14.04.3LTS is availabe and it give me option to upgrade is that the 64 bit version or 32bit??? | 23:54 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: if you are on the 32-bit version, you'll upgrade to the 32-bit version. If you want the 64-bit version you've got to do a clean install | 23:54 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: the 'interfaces' file is used by the ifupdown scripts. If the system has Network Manager and the interface isn't declared in 'interfaces' then possibly NM is managing wlan0 | 23:54 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, damn | 23:55 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, is there any way i can upgrade to 64 bit version from here and keep all my files | 23:55 |
MannyLNJ | daftykins, I'm an id10t I found pre-made entries in the setup for SSH and PPTP in the router config. (I really need to buy my own router and replace the ISP provided one) | 23:55 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, i dual boot to windows 7 | 23:55 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: nope, no network-manager. | 23:55 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: no way that I'm going to support | 23:56 |
Moonlightning | I always thought network-manager was an X thing anyway | 23:56 |
daftykins | MannyLNJ: or learning how to use the ISP one would work too :) | 23:56 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, huh??? | 23:56 |
TJ- | Moonlightning: I'd *suspect* without the active entry in 'interfaces' wlan0 will be in the DOWN state, and possibly that prevents brctl from acting on the 'bridge_ports' entry for wlan0 | 23:56 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: I'm not sure what happened during boot, but right now all four interfaces are up according to ifconfig. | 23:57 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: you can reinstall and keep your files, but I'd have a backup of them anyway (as you should for any files that are deemed important) | 23:57 |
Moonlightning | TJ-: keep in mind that eth1 would also have been down because its line is also commented. :) | 23:57 |
MannyLNJ | daftykins, My ISP's router **cannot** be configured by me. When I go to the IP of the router it redirects me to the ISP's site to control everything | 23:57 |
volund_ | gra | 23:57 |
=== volund_ is now known as Volund | ||
Volund | so I figured out why my Kubuntu exploded. | 23:57 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, so the version that update manager is giving me is the 32bit version of 14.04 | 23:58 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, ?? | 23:58 |
tgm4883 | skynetguy: it gives you the same architecture that you currently have installed | 23:58 |
skynetguy | tgm4883, you think it makes any diffrence if i use 32 bit 14.04 versus 64bit | 23:59 |
* tgm4883 shrugs | 23:59 |
