[00:00] why is "enable rotate cube" greyed out for me? i disabled wall and enabled rotate and cube in ccsm [00:00] bindi: did you reboot? [00:00] guide didnt tell me to, lotuspsychje [00:00] bindi: cube can do nasty things first time [00:02] it's still greyed out for me, after a reboot.. [00:02] desktop cube is enabled (and greyed out though) [00:02] bindi: hmm, did you install those unti plugins extras? [00:03] did you enable compiz ?? compiz --replace [00:03] unity [00:03] i did [00:03] I did install, that is [00:04] bindi: weird, cause enabling cube, system should know for itself what to disable [00:05] I'm on 15.10 btw :p === LoganG_ is now known as LoganG [00:05] bindi: #ubuntu+1 for you then :p [00:05] bindi: install LTS for stable experience then :p [00:05] ^ [00:06] I spend all day learning the basics of emacs, and now I'm addicted! C-x C-s :p [00:06] I'm not looking for a stable experience though. :P [00:06] help on 5.1 surround sound. changed /etc/pulse/daemon.conf. but still only see 2 speakers [00:07] bindi, 15.10 isnt finished, so, you have to expect errors [00:07] !lts | bindi [00:07] bindi: LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) [00:07] rrrrrrr i know what a LTS is [00:07] then you know #ubuntu+1 [00:07] I'm already there but you keep poking me here. :) [00:08] Just thought it was something really simple so thought I'd ask here, but maybe not [00:09] bindi: different channels for different probs/versions :p [00:09] TJ-, Bashing-om, unity back to normal now. cleared out ~/.config/dconf and ~/.config/compiz-1 [00:10] thx for the help === aeonchild is now known as enchilado [00:10] !cookie | TJ- [00:10] TJ-: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [00:10] PhlowAlso: thanks for letting us know what you did to fix it. It might help in the future === enchilado is now known as aeonchild [00:10] * TJ- has just had chips (fries) for supper! [00:11] PhlowAlso: Well ! You do good work. Thanks for getting back and providing the solution . [00:11] now to figure out why my gitlab install is giving me a bad gateway :) [00:11] PhlowAlso: proxy? [00:12] no proxy [00:13] I spent all yesterday upgrading it from 6.8.2 to omnibus and then 8.0.2 latest, was up and running, but it broke going from 14.10 to 15.04 after that [00:13] PhlowAlso: is it 502 error? [00:14] yep [00:14] nginx [00:15] PhlowAlso: is it a local URL redirect issue? [00:16] sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:check is throwing errors at me, must not be running right... looking [00:16] can I install a .deb on ubuntu? [00:16] c|oneman: you can with rpm [00:17] c|oneman: .deb's are the native package format on Ubuntu. Use 'dpkg' to manipulate them directly [00:17] c|oneman: of course you can. [00:18] I'm trying to get iozone for ubuntu 12.04 arm, but I only found a .deb package. [00:18] * Mirodroid is using 14.04 arm [00:18] should I add the debian wheezy repo to my sources.list or dpkg it? [00:19] c|oneman: deb packages are the right ones. but keep in mind that you need arm packages [00:20] c|oneman: .deb is not debian-only. but keep in mind you need to match the ubuntu depencies which might not work with packages made for debian. [00:20] hmm, reconfigured, restarted, gitlab:check passing now, still getting 502 though [00:24] On a PPA, what does "now" mean, as opposed to "trusty" etc.? [00:24] superlou: where? that sounds like its part of the name? [00:25] k1l_, in synaptic's naming scheme, for example, "LP-PPA-aims-sagemath/now" [00:26] superlou: its the the name of the PPA choosen by the PPA maintainer [00:26] Trying to get trusty to see the flightgear-data package at https://launchpad.net/~saiarcot895/+archive/ubuntu/flightgear-prerel, but since it isn't marked trusty, i think it's ignoring it [00:26] Was hoping "now" was some shorthand for "use any distribution" [00:26] Is there any kind of wildcard like that? [00:27] talk to the PPA maintainer to sort his packages there [00:27] Ok. So there's no way to tell ubuntu to use it? [00:27] no. the -data package is 15.04 only. [00:28] how do you tell that it's 15.04? (sorry if that's a dumb question) all the other ones have the distribution in their name [00:28] superlou: you dont. the PPA maintainer needs to do that [00:29] seeing the build logs it looks like that PPA is not building properly. [00:29] k1l_, got it, thanks [00:33] Evening. I need some help solving a VPN issue. I have a PPTP vpn server on ubuntu 14. My ubuntu workstation can not connect to the vpn. How do I diagnose where the issues are? [00:33] !vpn | MannyLNJ [00:33] MannyLNJ: For more information on vpn please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN [00:35] Devido á má conduta e autoritarismo sem causa do operador do canal #ubuntu-br, a comunidade de suporte ao sistema operacional Ubuntu Gnu/Linux se organizou e está gerenciando um novo canal de suporte ao sistema linux mais amigo do usuário, acessem o #br-ubuntu [00:35] lotuspsychje, thank you [00:35] MannyLNJ: check logs first (in /var/log/) at both ends [00:36] TJ-, I have many logs in /var/log but nothing appears to be for the vpn [00:37] MannyLNJ: what I usually do is first check which were most recently changed ("ls -latr /var/log/"), then inspect them for signs. Usually syslog and auth.log are good candidates. Some services keep their own log files too. [00:38] MannyLNJ: Second step is to run the VPN server service in the foreground, in debug mode, in a terminal, and watch what happens when connections come in. Similar debug measures on the client help to match entries each side [00:43] TJ-, I think I found the issue on the server log now to look into the solution [00:50] cfhowlett: good morning === unlike is now known as MalConsejo [00:51] greetings lotuspsychje! [00:56] Hi. What's the difference between bcmwl-kernel-source and broadcom-sta-dkms ? [00:56] vickycq, one of them is the one you need. one is not. what chipset do you have? [00:57] cfhowlett, BCM43142 [00:57] 17aa:0611 [01:00] vickycq, per the wiki, you need the STA https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#Drivers_available_in_Ubuntu [01:01] cfhowlett, Thank you! [01:01] specifically the bcmwl-kernel-source which should be on your ubuntu installation .iso or in the repos [01:04] Also, not sure where to post this, so I will post it in a couple of places. I appear to have bricked a jump drive. It shows up in dmesg as a storage device, but gparted cannot see it, and neither can lsblk. Any tips? [01:05] by default, unattended upgrades runs every day, right ? [01:06] so if its got a reboot = true on it the server will reboot every day (assuming there's updates) ?

[01:48] sorry but I will keep silent [01:48] sekai, /join #ubuntu-offtopic dont' forget the / [01:49] Well, I just installed Ubuntu onto my old laptop. It is attmpting to do it's first boot but it's been stuck on the screen with the Ubuntu logo and the dots under it for at least 10-15 minutes now. [01:49] RB98: try pressing Esc key; is the splash screen replaced by something else? [01:49] tried / but nothing happend. [01:49] RB98, "old" laptop? old equipment likes #lubuntu or perhaps #xubuntu [01:50] and this is the first time to use irc. ignore me . [01:50] Yes, it says: blk_updae_request: I/O error, dev sr0 sector 744560 [01:50] update* [01:51] It's just repeating the error now. [01:51] also, the numbers are changing each time it prints the error [01:52] ah. i/o error and changing numbers each time points to a possibly failing HDD [01:52] The HDD was working just fine on Windows 10 not an hour ago [01:53] RB98, you said "old" laptop. HDD's are far from immortal [01:53] so how "old"?? [01:54] like... 8 years old. However, why would the HDD just suddenly die after working not and hour earlier. [01:54] They die suddenly. [01:54] RB98, that is EXACTLY how some hdd's die! [01:54] Also, 8 years is a good run. [01:54] (and at the worst possible time!_ [01:54] 5 is more typical. [01:55] good thing you backed up your data ... [01:55] Yeah, I always do a backup [01:55] Ok, thank you for your help. [01:55] I recommend a SSD in that thing. [01:56] It's so old, I might as well just get a new laptop so yeah. [01:56] I have a laptop of similar age, and it went from a 3 minute boot to a <15 second one. [01:56] Amazing improvement. [01:56] Ok, good bye! [01:56] Bye! [01:56] best of luck RB98 [01:57] Damn, RB98 left. The error was on a DVD/CD *not* the HDD! [01:58] doh! [01:58] eh..how to show the list of channels? [01:58] "blk_updae_request: I/O error, dev sr0 sector 744560" <<< SR0 == SCSI Removable [01:58] so he was booting from dvd?? [01:59] cfhowlett: possibly, or it was still in the drive and the installed OS tools were trying to automount it in the background [01:59] damn. I should have caught that ... [02:00] DOH! [02:01] Well, worst case. [02:01] I was busy elsewhere else I'd have chirped up sooner [02:01] He buys a new HDD. [02:01] eh, still you advised him to replace the 8 year old hdd with ssd. good police work. [02:01] Actually, worst case is that he buys a new laptop. [02:01] Yeah. [02:01] OneM_Industries: yeah... and leaves the bad DVD in the drive and thinks the new HDD has also failed :D [02:02] I have had drives die suddenly after 10 years of service. [02:02] Eeh. [02:02] OneM_Industries: please don't give advice in future. [02:02] Sorry. [02:02] apologise to your victims :) [02:03] He left. [02:03] The advice was fine; everyone missed the error location [02:03] And also, I did spend 6 hours scraping wallpaper out of a bathroom. [02:04] OneM_Industries: did you fix the USB flash failure issue? [02:04] No. [02:04] Looks like a dead drive. [02:04] yeah it was terrible advice for not spotting sr0 = optical :) [02:04] hehe, more dead drives ;) [02:04] Ah well, it was only a 4Gb one. [02:04] I think I figured out why it died though. [02:05] tell1 [02:05] tell us! [02:05] OneM_Industries: I wonder... I've had lots of those 'thumb' style devices fail simply because the USB plug breaks away from the PCB (the solder fractures). I crack open the cases and reflow the solder. [02:05] OneM_Industries: they suffer a lot of physical stress from being plugged in [02:07] Nevermind about my theory as to why it broke. [02:07] Unless system volume information is important in Linux. [02:07] TJ-: Opening it up now. [02:07] running ubuntu 10.04, and it will not upgrade. any help? [02:08] I have a secondary hard drive that is shown on my desktop, how do i blacklist that secondary hard drive? [02:08] !eolupgrade | marcomarc but you should probably download 14.04 and clean install [02:08] marcomarc but you should probably download 14.04 and clean install: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [02:08] marcomarc: +1 to cfhowlett, no point wasting your time on something that old [02:09] ty [02:09] daftykins, old hardware = old software. [02:10] Marco, errr, yeah. old hardware and newest ubuntu are not always friendly. lubuntu is optimized for old hardware, however. [02:10] HOLY S***. So, this jump drive is a microSD card glued into place in a holder. [02:11] OneM_Industries, four letter words? please don't. but I do appreciate your shock. [02:11] Sorry. [02:11] hmm i timed out. did anyone see my question? [02:11] Hot glue. [02:11] marcomarc: yeah but you came asking about upgrade, so the point is clean clean clean - doesn't matter. [02:11] function9x, yep. [02:11] Hot glue between me and data loss. [02:12] OneM_Industries, indeed. that's why the guides recommend multiple backup methods. [02:12] Wait. [02:12] right but only idiots rely on flash drives [02:12] OneM_Industries: I'm not suprised! I did mention that a few hours ago, but didn't think it's be internal! [02:12] This model showed as a 4Gb drive, but the micro SD card shows as a 2GB card on the chip.... [02:12] * cfhowlett thinks ... "I'm an idiot!" [02:13] cfhowlett: 4 letter words!? I really think "your" is inappropriate in this channel :P [02:13] * TJ- hides [02:13] the Y word naughty naughty [02:13] So. [02:13] * cfhowlett loads up the SamuelL.Jackson response plugin ... but doesn't deploy. yet. [02:14] Looks like China strikes again. [02:14] * TJ- makes the channel a mug of tea [02:14] k bye [02:14] OneM_Industries, that's exactly what I was thinking! I'm in Beijing. trust me, that kind of fakery is the norm in most shops. [02:14] How is it held down?... [02:14] So, this is fun. [02:15] I can't get the chip off of the board. === wxl_ is now known as wxl [02:15] Oops. [02:15] Well, hope those solder traces weren't needed.... [02:17] Well, no "Free" microSD card for me it seems. [02:19] Looks like I ripped a trace off of the SD card. [02:23] OneM_Industries: take the chatter elsewhere please, support only in here. [02:24] also, lunar eclipse - woo! [02:24] daftykins: I just went outside to see it... thick fog! [02:24] doh! [02:24] http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/11895052/Supermoon-lunar-eclipse-2015-Amazing-pictures-of-once-in-a-generation-event-live.html [02:24] ;) [02:24] daftykins: It's happening right now, you didn't miss it. Go otuside. [02:25] no i just came back in, why would you say that? [02:25] Oh wait, this is #ubuntu. daftykins, go to #ubuntu-offtopic and then go outside! [02:25] no. [02:34] I am wondering; is it possible to download a package and all of its requirements at once, in one neat file? [02:34] For example, the OpenJDK-7-JRE [02:36] well sure, grab the debs and deps [02:36] So, how do I burn a disk with Ubuntu? [02:36] daftykins, would I be able to do this all atonce, however, within Windows? [02:36] daftykins, from the official ubuntu reps. [02:37] Yuken, http://jeffhoogland.blogspot.com/2010/06/howto-installing-ubuntu-packages.html [02:37] why Windows o0 [02:37] OneM_Industries: right click on the ISO? or data files? [02:37] That's it? [02:38] you didn't say which [02:38] so i can't really continue... [02:38] It is an ISO. [02:38] And it looks like my CD/DVD player is not a writer. [02:38] Dang it. [02:39] should be obvious from the logos on the front of it [02:40] Odd, the spec sheet says it is a writer. [02:41] Ah well. [02:42] So, I have my DVD. [02:42] I have my ISO. [02:42] What next? [02:43] Ah ha! [02:43] Image writing! [02:44] So, how do I set it as a live DVD> [02:44] ?* [02:45] you don't, that's what the ISO is [02:45] write the image -> success [02:45] Ok then. [02:45] Thank you! [02:46] I am used to Windows method of DVD burning. [02:46] which to me is using the built in software, or installing imgburn and also writing the ISO :) [02:46] so no real difference [02:47] Hey, setting up multiple instances of Linux. How well do they work together? [02:47] So, say I am going to have a disk that is half Ubuntu, and half Kali. How well do you think that will work? [02:48] can you be a bit clearer? as in multi-boot different distros? [02:48] one can read anothers file system, but you're being too vague really [02:48] how would you expect them to 'work together' ? [02:49] Multi Boot. === n0mad_ is now known as [n0mad] [02:54] My video display is messed up. i have boxes replacing characters. How can I reset the video system without rebooting? [02:54] OneM_Industries: if you're doing that kind of thing I'd recommend using LVM rather than partitions, for the distros [02:54] Ok. [02:54] OOH! The CD burner makes a nice ding when done! [02:56] MannyLNJ: if you mean and keep programs running, i don't think that's going to happen [02:59] daftykins, yes I mean't keep programs running, however now it went back to normal. Quite odd [03:00] must be an open driver / slightly wonky system [03:00] you can try toggling between TTY1 and back again sometimes === Geom` is now known as Geom [03:01] daftykins, I think I do have a driver issue. Laptop is a Lenovo ideapad Z560 Vmware player says I have no 3d support [03:02] well vmware player has nothing to do with the host OS operating [03:02] daftykins, no Vmplayer was saing my host has no 3d support [03:03] right but that doesn't have any relevance to the host graphics going odd [03:03] or are you saying it was a guest... [03:03] Descriptioned: IRC as root? :) [03:05] daftykins, No it was graphics on my laptop but when I launch a guest OS of windows 10 vmware says hardware acceleration is not available because of my linux driver. [03:05] and which driver are you using? [03:06] assuming you're after help with that and not just tangenting :) [03:06] mythbuntu [03:06] ooops [03:06] yeah oops alright :) [03:06] daftykins, Whatever driver Ubuntu 14.04 installed when I installed it. The Vmware is just a tangent [03:06] oh ok so you're not asking for help on it? nevermind then [03:07] :) [03:08] daftykins, No I'm not asking for help on the Vmware issue. I am asking for help on the Ubuntu hoist os issue. I think the graphics problem are related to the driver on the host os [03:08] meant to say /j #mythbuntu [03:08] MannyLNJ: alright so identify what graphics hardware you have first, by pastebin'ing "lspci" . [03:09] you can't say you think that when i already said i think that :P [03:12] daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12599717/ [03:12] and "cat /proc/cpuinfo" ? [03:13] daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12599725/ [03:14] oh dam first gen [03:14] ubuntu version? [03:15] Friends how can I solve this issue with the Minetest installation? http://paste.ubuntu.com/12599522/ [03:15] yu're in the wrong channel, SergioEDuran1 - #ubuntu+1 === gary is now known as Guest68745 [03:16] oh dear Tux, you've got wily, vivid and trusty PPAs in there all at once [03:16] that's a HUGE mess [03:16] lol [03:16] daftykins, uname -a will tell me the version? [03:16] hahahahah [03:16] what can I say [03:16] MannyLNJ: cat /etc/issue [03:17] there are LOTS of apps wich are not on wily [03:17] daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12599753 [03:17] and many repos only offer some branches [03:17] so I needed to use all of them :D [03:17] MannyLNJ: no better driver to get then really, assuming you're up to date. [03:18] daftykins, Thanks. Not what I wanted to hear. [03:18] "oh here's the magical switch to throw to solve your problem!" [03:19] yeah guess it was more like that [03:19] and also I am here and not in the Xubuntu's one because Ubuntu is the mother distro of Xubuntu Kubuntu and all of them [03:19] SergioEDuran1: ok but nobody said that [03:20] daftykins, No, not looking for a magicial swtich, just the way my day and week has been going. Now to tackle my unrelated Vmware issue. if I can't fix that I'll go to their forum [03:20] it probably is related [03:20] MannyLNJ: actually maybe you should "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" [03:20] daftykins: what do you mean' [03:21] nobody uses wat? [03:22] SergioEDuran1: you kinda defended asking here as if someone said you should go to #xubuntu - but i told you to go to #ubuntu+1 because wily isn't out yet - you can't discuss it here :) [03:23] hi all [03:23] haha I see [03:24] Ok I will go to this channel :) [03:24] daftykins, It times out when I do cat /var/log/Xord.0.log | pastebinit [03:25] I mean Xorg not Xord [03:29] MannyLNJ: you don't need to cat it to pastebinit, you just "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" [03:29] How would I find out what my computer's domain name is? [03:30] it doesn't have one [03:30] Odd... [03:30] a domain name is either a website you own, something.com - or a windows corporate network name [03:30] Odd. [03:30] This Kali install is asking for one. [03:30] you can't ask for Kali support here. [03:31] so don't ask about it again please [03:31] daftykins, still says failed top contact the server: [Errno socket error] timed out [03:31] Sorry, I was trying to find out what it was using my Ubuntu machine. [03:31] ah must be pastebinit failing to connect to whatever site it was upping to [03:31] Thus me asking here. [03:31] yeah, don't :) [03:32] you don;t know what domain is, and you install kali to hack. i smell unethical script-kiddying [03:32] no help. you're banished. [03:32] heh [03:32] Wouldn't the domain name be whatever is to the right of the @ sign? [03:33] no. [03:33] Ok, I know what a domain name is. Problem is, it is being used in a context that I have not come across yet. [03:33] read books, do your homework, talk to girls. [03:33] that is a hostname :) [03:33] why bother with hostname [03:33] Also, I am using it at the request of someone to test a network's strength. [03:33] daftykins, i thought host name was the name to the left of the @ sign [03:34] OneM_Industries: drop it now, this isn't a chat channel and i've already told you it's not on topic here. [03:34] Because it will not let me continue in the install without it.l [03:34] Sorry. [03:34] MannyLNJ: nah it's user@host [03:34] daftykins, ok see how confused I am. [03:34] * daftykins nods [03:34] daftykins, with pastebinit not working for me how else can I show the file? [03:35] open in a text editor -> visit paste.ubuntu.com manually [03:41] daftykins, working on it. Not sure how to copy an entire file in nano [03:46] you're gonna need to use a GUI text editor... [03:47] daftykins, I think the issue is the file is too big. I tried to upload it to pastebin.ca and it said it was too big [03:47] daftykins, can he terbin.com??? [03:47] *termbin* [03:48] MannyLNJ: basically every single step i've told you to follow, you've done something different and failed... [03:48] i said paste.ubuntu.com for a reason :) [03:48] cfhowlett: at this stage i feel it'll just confuse ;) [03:48] noted [03:50] daftykins, I tried to use pastebinit and it fails. I am looking for a GUI based editor to use. I am somewhat familair with nano. Not trying to be diffocult here [03:51] nano isn't GUI [03:51] KATE for KDE, gedit for gnome / unity ----> http://paste.ubuntu.com [03:53] Ok I got gedit loaded and copied the file. [03:55] waiting for ubuntu.pastebin.com to give me a link [03:56] aaaaah, 15.04 upgrade apparently caused nginx to start running rather than gitlab's embedded nginx... it had the ports bound already [03:56] helooo guys [03:56] hi [03:56] Hello!

Some guides I followed asked me to install django in server in virtualenv in /opt/ [04:09] So far I had them in my home directory [04:09] right? [04:09] Will storing them in /opt require me to run all commands as sudo? [04:09] no [04:10] daftykins, thank you for the help. trying the command now. I assume that unlike windows a reboot is not necessary? [04:10] wrong [04:10] it's putting a new kernel on [04:11] that explains why your log was so huge, you never reboot? :) [04:11] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [04:11] that one's also handy [04:13] daftykins, Well this system has only been up for 3 days. [04:15] daftykins, rebooting [04:25] daftykins, another question. I have no flash drives installed why is my system finding a 7.9gb drive in /media/emanuel [04:26] MannyLNJ: pastebin "df -h" and "mount" === trick is now known as Guest56365 [04:28] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12600092/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/12600094/ [04:29] "ls -al /media/emanuel/8765-4321" ? [04:29] you definitely have an 8GB partition doing nothing [04:30] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12600092/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/12600108 [04:31] alright, i don't know what that is but it's some other partition [04:32] "sudo fdisk -l" could be handy too [04:32] If your linux distro has a gui ( ubuntu desktop version for example ) and you doing have a monitor plugged in and only access it via ssh is there any difference at that point from a desktop and server edition? [04:32] Are any processing cycles being used for the gui that isn't being used/ [04:33] if desktop is installed, it's a security issue, it's a waste - and it's ridiculous === Geom`` is now known as Geom === nathaniel is now known as Guest899 [05:01] hi all i opened the port 8000 sudo ufw allow 8000 and try do a telnet localhost 8000 and get an error "connection refused" why? http://pastebin.com/zk7Qun19 [05:02] because no service is listening on it?

IDEs ? [05:37] Hello, I would like to setup 2 partitions (home and root) ontop of dmcrypt with luks on a SSD, but i do not know the recommended way to do this based on stability, speed and complexity. I know I could use LVM to setup a logical volume then a ext4 partition, but btrfs has come a long way and supports SSD's and support for subvolumes, making it simpler for this job. [05:39] so happynes is orbiden here ben is it [05:39] Many ways to solve a task, but so much old, new or incorrect information has been scattered on the internet so it is hard for me to search. [05:39] whats wrong with links leading to music [05:39] dreamx_: anything that isn't on topic is forbidden here [05:39] okay bye then [05:41] Btrfs seems fine, but i read it is still too unstable or could do huge amount of writes to my poor SSD, altough ext4 was also very old (not sure if suitable). [05:42] ext4 is fine [05:42] Guest39998: ext4 and old? [05:43] I do not remember where i read it, but the underlying tech was pretty old, but this could also have been caused by their talk about btrfs been newer. [05:44] Guest39998: ext4 was released in 2008. NTFS for example is from mid 1980 [05:46] What is the command to make cron start a job now, without waiting for the time set upo in crontab? (The real problem is that I want to debug the job and do not want to mess with crontab) [05:46] Anyhow, how safe would it be to replace LVM and ext4 by btrfs with subvolumes? [05:47] hi [05:48] there is nginx in my usr sbin nginx. how do i know which process installed it and how can i uninstall it? [05:48] 15.04 [05:48] c# design Windowns form ?

[05:52] mik25: that worked. so basically nginx, nginx-full and -command are three diferent things to ubuntu [05:53] absklb: yes [05:53] hmm [05:55] absklb: it usually is [05:56] stenchfootz: it can be. but why to confuse user by installing more than one executeables? why not just one nginx?

[06:43] ubuntu sud com wid freedoom [06:48] bye guys. [06:48] ls -latrs [06:49] Hey [06:49] Is there anyone online right now? [06:52] I have installed Ubuntu. I did some checking over Ubuntu Wiki. It turns out that I received a message box saying "root partition". Am I supposed to mount the partition before running Ubuntu? [06:52] or do I mount the partition using the terminal with this: sudo blkid? [06:53] explain what you're attempting to do [06:53] I am trying to partition a drive for Ubuntu. I already did by assigning it a new drive with the letter X [06:54] Currently, I'm backing up all my Win 7 files to another drive. What I want to do is attempt by logging into Ubuntu. [06:54] linux doesn't use drive letters [06:54] you said you installed ubuntu. partitioning would have already been done if that is true [06:54] Last I checked in Disk Management, my first install didn't partition a volume for it. [06:55] So I erased it in a separate drive from C:\ [06:55] I partitioned it myself on drive X:\ and then installed it to there. [06:55] windows tools can't really see linux stuff === Lakii^ is now known as Lakii [06:55] OK, so Linux is different. [06:56] The first install I did, I rebooted and logged into Ubuntu [06:56] All good until there's a messagebox that appears. [06:56] It talks about a ROOT and partition. I wasn't sure what it was asking. [06:56] need to see the exact message [06:57] I'll come back here once I've backed up the drive and logged into Ubuntu. [06:57] If I find the same error, I'll write it down, boot into Windows, and tell you what I found. [06:57] I have to ask. sudo blkid finds the uuid of the partition and mounts it, right? [06:58] Or would I have to use the /mnt to mount? [06:58] you can connect to irc from ubuntu [06:58] how do I do that? [06:58] I'm a newbie here but I am willing to learn Ubuntu [06:58] open xchat or use the freenode webchat or many other ways [06:58] I'm using HexChat [06:59] yep thats one of the many ways [06:59] So would it be available? [06:59] OK [06:59] How do I access HexChat through there? Use the super key to find the terminal and type in a specific command? [07:00] might need to install it first [07:00] OK [07:03] I'm reading about installing software [07:05] please help [07:05] whow connect to debian russian xchat channel [07:05] ? [07:07] Ben64: I found the cmd line for hexchat installation.

[08:01] loa: do you have a reason for that? 14.04 is supported until 2019, 15.04 is supported until January 2016 [08:01] hm [08:01] Ben64: yea seems like it. probably a docker related issue :( [08:01] phrearch: probably not [08:04] how i can add this repository to my ubuntu? https://launchpad.net/~vivnet/+archive/ubuntu/nvenc/+build/7117226 [08:05] hello guys [08:05] ayy lmao [08:05] Ben64: why is 15.04 supported until 2016 but 14.04 is supported until 2019? Is there a reason for that? [08:06] 14.04 is LTS [08:06] Long term support === aunfried is now known as notsure [08:06] test [08:06] it worx [08:06] nice [08:06] Well, that does suck [08:06] I have 15.04 installed. [08:07] No matter. I'll keep at it until it's phased out. Then I'll change it to 14.04 [08:08] doesn't make sense to go backwards [08:08] Itll still work until after that date, you can just update it at anytime [08:08] Huscurian: better go to the next lts, 16.04 [08:08] you go from 15.04 to 15.10, which is released next month, then 16.04 in April, and thats LTS [08:09] Great. Thought they were cutting it off at 15.04, using 14.04 as LTS then branching out. I guess I wasn't thinking straight [08:15] G'day. I updated some packages last night and it borked my install. I go to login and it boots me back out to the login screen. I think its related to fglrx, in xsession_errors i see an error BAD REQUEST, seemingly related to ATIFGLEXTENSION [08:15] Any ideas? [08:15] And fglrxinfo returns unable to open display [08:16] Can see the graphics card in lspci fine, if that makes a difference [08:17] I also ran aticonfig --initial and rebooted [08:23] Hello guys, I'm a newbie and after installing nvidia drivers on Ubuntu 15.04 i cant type the Password when i start my pc (whole disk encrypted), i have to go to recovery mode then it works (driver gets loaded after i enter password here) ... so i assume it's the nvidia driver, is there any way to fix this without uninstalling the driver? [08:24] same here i had to use another kernel [08:25] I thought non-LTS were supported for 2 years? That would mean 15.04 is supported until 17.04. [08:25] lvleph: 9 months [08:25] I guess I was wrong. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS [08:26] Ah after 12.10 they changed that.

[08:29] researcher123: not a "one click and all is back" solution. its a lot of work to recover that files and with usage of the system that data might already be overwritten. see extundelete and photorec [08:29] researcher123 see k1l_'s response === _morphis is now known as morphis [08:30] You are most likely screwed [08:30] ext seems to be way more unforgiving than ntfs [08:30] lvleph: thanks [08:30] AvatarA how is that? [08:30] Can anyyone help me install opencv [08:30] well, if you delete important data once so it comes to the trash and than empty the trash, the data might not be that important. [08:31] researcher123: the most important thing is to stop using the PC you want to recover from RIGHT NOW. Go search for solutions from another device [08:31] well in practice, on ntfs I could recover what I needed in more than 75% of cases [08:31] trijntje: and why is that [08:31] ext, less than 20% [08:32] trijntje: can it hamrm PC [08:32] researcher123: so you don't overwrite where the files were [08:32] AvatarA and you kept statistics on this? [08:32] at least ext4, don't know about 3 and lower [08:32] researcher123: is that system still running where you want to recover the data? [08:32] researcher123: because ubuntu will overwrite the empty space where your files used to be. Shut down NOW [08:32] At least,can anyone hear me?

[09:14] somekindarobot: not so strange. windows works fastest on windows' own proprietary stuff [09:15] I suppose that's true. [09:16] if(client == linux) setSpeed(0.5) [09:17] half joking but microsoft did some shady things like this in the past :) [09:18] just like OSX works fastest on Apple computers compared to ihackintoshes.

[11:17] ok how can i get fonts in firefox to fit so i can see the hole web page [11:18] i useing ubuntu 15.4 [11:19] jeffrey, you can adjust your zoom with [ctrl]+[+] to zoom in and [ctrl]+[-] to zoom out. [11:19] you can also use ctrl+mouse scroll to do the same thing. [11:19] i know that but how to set it up to stay that way on all web sites [11:20] click on the three little bars on the upper right, then go to the content section. Set your defaults there. [11:20] if you click the advanced button, you can override web pages. [11:21] ok [11:21] you can also set a minimum font size. [11:21] hope that helps. [11:21] if it's beyond that, no clue.

I tried "ldd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1" but no luck. [18:31] Asking here as well since it's more active. [18:31] Anyone here know how to disable HDMI audio? I have a sound system plugged into my line-in but Kubuntu keeps trying to use the monitor speakers rather than the line-in. [18:31] wldcordeiro_, pulseaudio on there?

[18:58] nicomachus, not sure why it says that haha - come to think of it, that's my 2012-ish acer flat panel . . . [18:58] EriC^^: possible. Usually that count goes along with a definite noise when the heads are retracted as an emergency [18:58] lakitu: what is dfp1? [18:59] nicomachus, else, if i could get catalyst to take (install) i could just use that. [18:59] reveal: the 30" tv [18:59] ati?

You should monitor that carefully. I have a taskbar icon that can report drive temps [19:01] & let me check the DFP1 thing [19:01] TJ-: i think that had to do with using win10 it was getting the temps sky high [19:01] EriC^^: syslog and dmesg spit out IO errors on the drive? [19:02] EriC^^: Got me .. but I "asssume" we are looking at the times that an error occured and could not be corrected ?? [19:02] Bashing-om: EriC^^ I suppose it's possible some of those values are random values, since the manufacturers aren't required to use any particular standard for raw values - only for the adjusted VALUE/WORST/THRESHOLD [19:02] reveal: the dfp1 *is* the 30" tv [19:03] ok so it is correct when you grep it [19:03] Hello, I installed ubuntu awhile ago and tried to troubleshoot my phone with it [19:03] ok, lakitu, try this command: xrandr --output DFP1 --set underscan on [19:03] lotuspsychje: a quick grep gives this Sep 28 20:14:59 e kernel: [430771.396095] end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 120452992 [19:03] kinosuke: ubuntu-touch?

[20:04] cause it will wipe your hdd and reinstall ubuntu [20:04] I still have the bootable usb [20:04] Jaglor: nah he's missing the dir it should be empty but on msdos5 [20:04] EriC^^: I see. you're right. === korsakof is now known as korsakof_ [20:05] I tried on msdos2 it says uknown filesystem also [20:05] kinosuke: ok, reinstall ubuntu, and choose the Something else option and use the partitions it created already ( set the mountpoint to "/" ) [20:06] So ill over write it?

When I did sudo apt-get update the pc crashed after locking the screen. any suggestions? top does not show any ram or cpu problems [20:08] kinosuke: ok, choose Something else when it asks what to do, and select the ext4 partition and choose mountpoint at "/" , the lower partition might be swap, after you install come back here to see if it's all good [20:08] nicomachus: Thanks; was my next go . [20:08] one of these days, I'll get the two figured out :(...is there a wiki for ubuntu that explains how to do it? the only one I can find is for arch.... [20:09] howudodat: I think you'll need a systemd unit override/extra under /etc/systemd/system/ but not quite sure how you do it - I was looking at systemd handling of the ttys last week and unlike Upstart it seems to start ttys on-demand, rather than pre-starting [20:09] howudodat: might be worth asking in #systemd [20:10] creed, Had you checked the additional drivers tab in software & updates?

[20:52] cuz [20:52] Gnjurac, Ah I missed there was a vlc2 my bad, just be careful, run purge to clean what is there if needed.

I have something like this append auto=true priority=critical preseed/file=/cdrom/preseed.seed initrd=initrd.gz --- quiet [20:53] but my confusion is how ubuntu knows what vlc to install cuz ther is offical ubunto and vlc repo [20:53] Gnjurac, the package manager will pull the latest in your repo list. [20:53] so it owervrites ubuntu vlc? [20:53] for apt-get install [20:53] I'm stumped i can't tell if the netboot disk has the facility to use the preseed file or what a great way to debug that is [20:53] Gnjurac, Yes to some extent configs will stay the same.

[22:11] thanks for the help :) [22:12] daftykins, i guess i will.. do you know a good backup utility that isn't aids like this one? [22:12] i'd like to know how can i change the text size on windows menus ? [22:12] oh i'm using kubuntu [22:12] lol [22:13] isn't aids? huh? [22:13] does kubuntu have a quicklauncher? [22:13] aptonCD isn't backup at all in my view [22:13] yes it does [22:13] what would be best is a way to restore a backup from GRUB [22:14] you should look into clonezilla maybe [22:14] ;o [22:14] image up the entire OS, boot clonezilla liveCDs and restore [22:14] well, when i say entire OS - i mean image partitions or entire disks [22:15] is that like a real linux distribution creator?: [22:16] i must be searching for the missing link [22:16] no [22:16] tachibana: "restore a backup from GRUB" Think our TJ- is working on that . Stay tuned . [22:16] it just images your existing installation [22:16] is that right [22:17] kubuntu is sounding sexy atm [22:17] i feel like canceling this lubuntu install now [22:18] lxde looks great and all butt, the menus are just categorized all wrong [22:19] if you're aiming for low resources, KDE is not your winner [22:19] i think that kubuntu has a real nice good looking [22:19] kde and gnome is to huge for low power hardware. [22:19] xfce4 was cool [22:20] but the menus were also organized innefeciently === user is now known as Guest91814 [22:34] Hey guys, I am running 15.04 on my chromebook, and I have just one slight problem. Bluetooth automatically turns on on wakeup, even if I had disabled it before closing the computer. It just keeps coming back on. Is there anyway to just completely disable bluetooth? [22:36] hello. My boot partition is full [22:36] df -h shows that /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root is 337 free [22:37] and book /dev/sda1 is only 236m [22:37] boot* [22:37] I need to resize [22:37] (512 ssd btw) [22:43] kgirthofer_: Terminal command ' sudo apt-get autoremove' should remove the old no longer needed kernels and restore disk space ( if you are not at 100% capacity, to where there is no operating head room) . [22:44] Problem: I install other desktops. choose openbox. loads onto a blank screen. Oops can get to the greeter but does the same thing - even if I choose a different gui from the dropdown. HelpMe! (sorry I cant find the answer. we are in here irl helping a guy install ubuntu) [22:45] oops, I got it back and am installing 15.04 so nevermind. (space girls is hungry but too busy) === nathanleclaire_ is now known as nathanleclaire [22:50] hi [22:51] <_denis_> hi [22:51] is there a channel for android phones [22:51] no, because this is an Ubuntu support channel [22:51] android is not Ubuntu :) [22:52] <_denis_> but there is the off-topic ch [22:52] you dont think i know that? [22:52] ok [22:52] !alis | superdroider [22:52] superdroider: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" .

[22:55] look it up for yourself. [22:55] wow that is very rude [22:57] i try to use openvpn. i first move client.ovpn to /etc/openvpn and than run 'sudo systemctl start openvpn@client.service' but i get: Failed to start OpenVPN connection to client any tips? [22:57] (ubuntu 15.04) [22:59] owen1: you need more files than that unless you made a single file profile [23:00] daftykins: oh. i just downloaded the client.ovpn file from the openvpn web interface [23:00] 'web interface' ? so their own service? [23:01] there's a nice digitalocean guide on custom setups [23:01] daftykins: after installing openvpn you get a web interface where u can login and manage users etc. [23:01] oh i never used that one :) pure CLI server managed portion on ubuntu server here [23:02] daftykins: hardcode (: [23:02] so what files do i need other than the .ovpn [23:02] well that might have all the keys integrated, there must be some docs to check [23:04] daftykins: it say on the top: Automatically generated OpenVPN client config file by openvpnas2...this config file contains inline private keys [23:04] yay [23:04] ahahah [23:04] time to read logs as to why it didn't start then perhaps, but maybe it's that you needed to put it in a subfolder of /etc/openvpn [23:05] Hi folks. I have a script to change my desktop background to a random image in a particular directory. I have scheduled this script to run once a minute (for testing purposes) via cron (*/1 * * * * "/path/to/script.sh"). I am running 15.04, and I see cron output in /var/log/syslog that indicates the script is being run, but the background is not changing. Any ideas? [23:05] i just moved it to /etc/openvpn is this not the case? [23:05] i think you might want to read say, page 1 of the docs ;) [23:06] daftykins: ahahhah what docs (; [23:06] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN ? [23:06] and that's the point where i walk away [23:10] or https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/openvpn.html [23:15] hey all so I'm messing around with getting an preseed file into my mini.iso but for some reason it isn't grabbing anything from that file. If i put all the options in the kernel options line of the installer it seems to work. is there something i should know about the mini.iso and a preseed file? [23:18] If I installed Ubuntu with / on SSD and /home on HDD, if I do a fresh install will my home directory be retained? [23:19] <_denis_> what do you mean with "fresh install"? [23:19] Techspectre, yes. be careful not to format, be sure to point your partition at /home [23:20] <_denis_> however... if you choose to install over ubuntu, yes [23:20] _denis_, boot from live disk and reinstall === luckybunny is now known as D_Nide [23:20] <_denis_> there are lot of ways to install ubuntu [23:20] Well, right now Windows and Ubuntu are installed side by side on the SSD [23:21] and of course ... backup first [23:21] But if I just point to the same partitions for everything, I'm fine, right? === D_Nide is now known as BloodbathnBeyond [23:21] <_denis_> if you choose to overwrite ubuntu, you should be good to go === BloodbathnBeyond is now known as SpitneyBeers [23:22] <_denis_> but backup [23:22] I'll format the / partition on the SSD [23:22] but not format the /home partition on the HDD, just point to it === SpitneyBeers is now known as luckybunny [23:23] <_denis_> try doing it, you will see that there is an option that automatically overwrite your current linux === luckybunny is now known as LardLoinM [23:23] <_denis_> backup and choose that [23:23] Okay. [23:24] <_denis_> BACKUP [23:24] !home | Techspectre [23:24] Techspectre: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving [23:24] Well, all my files are backed up [23:24] <_denis_> you should be doing backups even when the system works well [23:24] I don't want to back up my system files because I screwed things up [23:25] <_denis_> i was talking about home [23:25] system can be replaced. data cannot [23:25] <_denis_> if you have a backup overwrite ur linux installation === LardLoinM is now known as luckybunny [23:27] Okay [23:27] Thanks _denis_ , cfhowlett === luckybunny is now known as Catlips [23:27] <_denis_> just as an info [23:28] <_denis_> yìyour partition will remain as they are [23:28] <_denis_> system partitions will be formatted [23:28] <_denis_> that's it [23:30] <_denis_> that damn ubuntu 14.10+ doesn't work here [23:30] <_denis_> maybe a bad video driver? [23:30] That's definitely the way to do it every time. I'll do it the same way when I want to upgrade to 16.04 [23:31] btw putting your /home on the mechanical is going to slow things down a bit :) [23:31] <_denis_> on this laptop ubuntu 14 IS THE ONLY DISTRO WORKING [23:31] i'd install fully to the SSD then symlink the media storage from the mechanical [23:31] <_denis_> ssd space is expensive [23:31] <_denis_> mechanical is not [23:33] daftykins: I can agree with that. It is how I do it as well. [23:33] phunyguy: :D [23:33] works for multiboot distros too [23:33] _denis_: yeah but . folders for software configs aren't large [23:33] multibooting* [23:34] <_denis_> agree === Catlips is now known as PhilCoulson === PhilCoulson is now known as partyboob [23:37] anyone got a good link for dual bootng? [23:37] Huscurian, what are the OS's you want to mix? [23:38] I wanted to do Windows 7 Ultimate and Ubuntu (wubi) [23:38] Huscurian, wubi is not supported is all. [23:38] I did a wubi installation about this morning, did a reboot, found Windows 7 (recovered) and Ubuntu. [23:38] Huscurian, wwww.ubuntu-manual.org [23:38] no WUBI! don't do it! NEVER! [23:38] When I went into Ubuntu, it ended up doing "wubuilder.mbr corrupted or missing" [23:38] Then where can I find the best ubuntu OS? [23:39] Would it be Ubuntu GNOME? [23:39] you already got it, just don't install it via WUBI :) [23:39] http://ubuntu-manual.org/ sorry [23:39] My sound no longer works. In the sound settings no output devices are listed. When I try to change my sound in alsamixer the settings are reset. [23:39] Huscurian, use the iso loaded to a usb or dvd boot and install. [23:40] daftykins, then what do I install it as? [23:40] Huscurian: first off you're going to need to get rid of the WUBI install [23:40] then get Windows 7 back to a state that's acceptable [23:41] after that, *boot* an ubuntu DVD or flash drive, prepared from Windows by putting the downloaded ISO onto either form - and boot it [23:41] <_denis_> read about fixmbr [23:41] that's not what's wrong [23:41] <_denis_> it works via win7 install DVD [23:41] <_denis_> than [23:42] _denis_ I tried that using Win 7 Install DVD [23:42] <_denis_> after wubi is not going to start [23:42] It never booted and asked for recovery. It simply bypassed it and went back to Windows 7 without recovering it [23:42] so do you need to fix 7, or was it a clean install so you can just wipe it again? [23:42] because either way - fixing Windows up is a job for ##windows [23:42] wubi has been partitioned to X:\ whereas Windows 7 is operating OK as of where I am now [23:43] There's no problem right now with Win 7 [23:43] well you have to remove the WUBI Ubuntu install [23:43] <_denis_> oh, so u can start win7? [23:43] That'll be Control Panel, Programs, Programs and Features, Add or Remove Programs [23:43] _denis_: yes so please stop trying to help when you didn't even read the description :( [23:44] _denis_: Yes, I can. It says "Windows (recovered)". So pretty much it starts OK [23:44] <_denis_> sorry [23:44] I'll remove wubi and then reformat X:\ [23:44] <_denis_> than start it and remove wubi [23:44] X probably won't exist once you get rid of it :) [23:44] <_denis_> via control panel [23:44] yeah that's what i was already saying - we don't need echos in here :) [23:45] X:\ does exist [23:45] I partitioned it myself. [23:45] But Ubuntu wubi is gone now [23:45] oh so it's not related to the install, fair enough [23:45] never used it you see due to how many problems it causes people [23:45] <_denis_> have a party than [23:45] <_denis_> wubi is gone.... time to drink! [23:46] daftykins: I did it because partitioning it myself allowed me to split a drive and keep the OS. The first install kept itself within the same partition, the primary partition. [23:46] And it worked but it requested the ROOT partition so I uninstalled it, partitioned to X:\ [23:46] and now you see where my problem is [23:48] well none of that matters because you won't install Ubuntu on a Windows partition at all [23:48] OK, I'm going on the net to find me an Ubuntu OS that's bootable from the USB [23:48] you already have one if you downloaded an ISO [23:48] what did you download? [23:48] <_denis_> just use netbootin [23:48] Let me check [23:48] OK [23:48] Here's the file name [23:49] ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso [23:49] if you have a spare flash drive 2GB or larger, you can use Universal USB Installer from pendrivelinux.com to prepare it, or just burn a DVD-R [23:49] yeah that's fine then [23:49] I have a flash drive that I can use [23:49] 8GB [23:49] that's a yes then [23:49] I use it primarily for school but I can use it though [23:49] it'll be wiped so take anything off it you need [23:49] <_denis_> it will be ok [23:50] daftykins: thanks for letting me know. I'll remove it before doing that. [23:50] I want to add a program (link to custom emacs launch config) to my path, but I'm not sure where to put it, which of these is best? /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin [23:50] <_denis_> you can use lili [23:50] <_denis_> that way the content won't be deleted [23:50] _denis_: you're just complicating things unnecessarily and causing a too many cooks situation here. [23:51] <_denis_> I don't think using lili is so much complicated -.- [23:51] <_denis_> it has even a nice gui [23:51] for a new user any additional step is a big waste of time :) [23:51] brb. going to take off all my stuff [23:52] <_denis_> you don't have additional steps -.- [23:52] PudgePacket: I like to put custom binary files in /usr/local/bin since that directory is usually empty [23:52] PudgePacket: or even create a bin directory to your home, and add that to your path [23:52] _denis_: you can feel free to help any other user that's not actively being helped, that's the best way to do it... 1 per question asker [23:53] <_denis_> I was just giving the user the option of saving time [23:53] Can someone help me our please? [23:53] <_denis_> using one prog instead of another [23:54] yep and just confusing :) [23:54] <_denis_> i may be help you [23:54] thanks rap424 [23:54] chance: not until you ask something [23:54] <_denis_> it depends on the question [23:56] I need help on how to install a driver for my graphics card. Last time I tried to do it, i had to reinstall Ubuntu because when I booted up my PC, it just showed a black screen. [23:56] <_denis_> what gpu are you using? [23:56] ASUS Radeon R7 260x [23:57] <_denis_> fine, have you tried with the amd official driver installer? [23:58] Yes. That's when I got the problem with booting up a black screen. I haven't tried it since. [23:59] <_denis_> ok... what kernel version are you using?
