[00:00] <TJ-> k1l: I've been waiting for someone to try and exploit that but not even seen an attempt
[00:00] <Decon> exploit what?
[00:00] <Decon> him in here logged in as a root user?
[00:00] <TJ-> "IRC as root"
[00:00] <daftykins> it's still pretty daft :>
[00:00] <TJ-> daftykins: why?
[00:00] <k1l> TJ-: its more one part of a bigger picture. one that runs irc as root will run everything else as root too.
[00:01] <Decon> I dont know much about Linux but I'll try to remember that
[00:01] <TJ-> k1l: I run as root; but there's 0 chance of compromising it
[00:01] <daftykins> i don't think this is the channel for that topic
[00:01] <lehzm> k1l: hey thanks bro. got it running
[00:04] <Wachu> clear
[00:05] <Wachu> well.. i just begin with tmux, sory :D
[00:05] <daftykins> you can experiment over in #test
[00:05] <Wachu> i'll remember :)
[00:11] <zykotick9> daftykins k1l sidenote, for irssi there is an ubottu !quietirssi factoid with the directions for join/parts
[00:13] <hanasaki> how can the font resolution on the console ex VT1  be set at boot up in grub?  from the command line while booted?
[00:15] <EriC^^> hanasaki: check here http://askubuntu.com/questions/173220/how-do-i-change-the-font-or-the-font-size-in-the-tty-console
[00:16] <hanasaki> EriC^^:  thanks. tried that.   is still very small... it's a laptop with 4k monitor
[00:16] <daftykins> zykotick9: i'll never remember that.
[00:17] <EriC^^> hanasaki: maybe change the resolution in tty only?
[00:17] <hanasaki> how?
[00:18] <zykotick9> hanasaki: fbset is pretty simple (but doesn't affect grub/boot) is more "user space"
[00:18] <hanasaki> thanks.
[00:18] <hanasaki> grub used to take vga  = ....
[00:19] <zykotick9> hanasaki: vga= is deprecated (but often still works), there is a "new" method but don't remember the specifics off hand.

[00:20] <elephant_> can you tell me please why i get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/12635570/ when i run this command " dhcpd -cf /etc/dhcpd.conf -pf /var/run/dhcpd.pid at0"
[00:22] <elephant_> by the way the tutorial i am following is old and uses dhcp3 , so can you please give me the equivelent command for the updated dhcp server in ubuntu ?
[00:24] <elephant_> should i change these  -pf and -cf options  ??
[00:24] <daftykins> they are your configuration file location and your PID file location
[00:25] <daftykins> so if they're wrong, yes... if they're correct, no, they don't need changing
[00:25] <daftykins> elephant_: you're getting an error because you're trying to feed it a config file which doesn't exist
[00:26] <elephant_> daftykins : i wrote the config file
[00:26] <daftykins> but it's not there....
[00:26] <daftykins> read line 17
[00:26] <daftykins> it couldn't be any clearer :)
[00:36] <samonlaststraw> This is the 3rd time today that 15.04 froze up on me.
[00:36] <samonlaststraw> grr
[00:38] <daftykins> time for a memtest and disk health check
[00:39] <samonlaststraw> daftykins, I highly doubt its any of that, I think its the ati drivers.
[00:39] <k1l> see the logs
[00:39] <samonlaststraw> daftykins, my why ? Simple, everything else freezes except mouse and keyboard.
[00:39] <samonlaststraw> k1l, I'm checking them but, I don't know which one to look at.
[00:40] <samonlaststraw> k1l, I saw 2 of the logs referencing my ati drivers.
[00:40] <k1l> start with dmesg. keep in mind after a reboot the get rotated
[00:40] <samonlaststraw> k1l, also the freezes seems to occur with chromium.
[00:40] <TJ-> samonlaststraw: do you have a 2nd PC you can SSH into it from? If so, have an ssh session connected and next time it freezes see if you can still use the SSH session to analyse the issue
[00:40] <samonlaststraw> TJ-, ah, I do
[00:41] <samonlaststraw> TJ-, thanks !
[00:41] <TJ-> samonlaststraw: when I get GUI lock-ups that's the first thing I do
[00:41] <TJ-> samonlaststraw: At worst, usually restarting the display manager will sort it
[00:41] <samonlaststraw> TJ-, any recommendations on where I should check first in the logs ?
[00:42] <samonlaststraw> again I have a hunch its the prop drivers.
[00:42] <TJ-> samonlaststraw: $HOME/.xsession-errors, /var/log/Xorg.0.log, /var/log/kern.log, /var/log/syslog in approximately that order
[00:42] <TJ-> samonlaststraw: if its 15.04 you may need to use "sudo journalctl" instead though (systemd-journald does logging)
[00:43] <daftykins> AMD, not ATi :)
[00:44] <samonlaststraw> well... old memories don't die.
[00:44] <penos> is journalctl curses?
[00:45] <penos> or just text?
[00:45] <samonlaststraw> TJ-, <TJ-> samonlaststraw: if its 15.04 you may need to use "sudo journalctl" instead though (systemd-journald does logging)
[00:45] <samonlaststraw> TJ-, what does that do ?
[00:46] <TJ-> samonlaststraw: access to the journald binary logs
[00:46] <samonlaststraw> I have no idea...
[00:46] <samonlaststraw> man page'd it and still lost at the terms.
[00:46] <samonlaststraw> journalctl may be used to query the contents of the systemd(1) journal as written by
[00:46] <samonlaststraw>        systemd-journald.service(8).
[00:46] <samonlaststraw> ok...
[00:47] <Bashing-om> samonlaststraw: IF you are on 15.04 release : https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/systemd-essentials-working-with-services-units-and-the-journal
[00:47] <samonlaststraw> I'll just wait for the problem to happen again. I'll ssh into it and copy what I can then, revert to open drivers.
[00:48] <penos> why is it binary?
[00:48] <TJ-> samonlaststraw: I've not run 15.04, but on 15.10 journald feeds its logs to rsylogd which was the only system log daemon on 14.04. From some support I've done for 15.04 users it seems the systemd/rsyslogd integration wasn't so good in 15.04
[00:50] <samonlaststraw> yeah... I totally don't know what your talking about so I'll just keep typing.
[00:50] <Decon> I don't know anything that oanyone is tlaking about
[00:50] <Decon> I am a noobie and I don't knwo anything
[00:50] <daftykins> Decon: take your chat to #ubuntu-offtopic then :)
[00:50] <samonlaststraw> TJ-, ignorance has never been so real with me when it comes to "logs" or "systemd"
[00:51] <OneM_Industries> Hey, how would I check if my graphics card drivers are up to date?
[00:51] <Decon> I'd like to learn stuff dafty :(
[00:51] <samonlaststraw> however TJ- I did copy and paste your help on what to check.
[00:51] <daftykins> OneM_Industries: identify the hardware you use, the driver... then share with us
[00:51] <daftykins> Decon: ok well do so silently
[00:51] <daftykins> until such time as you have a support question :)
[00:51] <OneM_Industries> Ok, it is a GeForce GT 640.
[00:52] <daftykins> pretty old, you won't have much to do there - just use what works.
[00:52] <Decon> Oh, this channel forbids people being social?
[00:52] <daftykins> Decon: correct, support only - #ubuntu-offtopic for chat
[00:52] <Decon> Ok, thanks
[00:53] <k1l> Decon: stop making a drama. we try to keep this channel clear for support since its disturbing for beginners focusing on their issue. #ubuntu-offtopic is the channel where you can do social chat
[00:53] <penos> is ubumtu slack based?
[00:53] <wileee> debian
[00:54] <penos> YOU LIE
[00:54] <wileee> daily
[00:54] <Decon> K1l: I was merely asking a question.  I didn't know.  I do now.  You can keep your snide remarks to yourself.  k?thx!
[00:54] <samonlaststraw> TJ-, I'm attempting to emulate the freezing by playing a 4k video
[00:56] <TJ-> samonlaststraw: The system logs have 'traditionally' always been unstructured text files, generated by individual processes or sent to a central logging process (syslog) that then splits the messages out into log files under /var/log/.  With Ubuntu 15.04 the Systemd init system took over (from Upstart), and it has its own logging process 'journald' that writes structured to binary log database files instead.
[00:56] <TJ-> It  can also pipe (as text) those log messages to the 'traditional' syslog process, so 15.04+ have 'hybrid' logging going on.
[00:57] <TJ-> samonlaststraw: thus, we have to sometimes check in 2 places to be sure of seeing all relevant log entries
[00:57] <OneM_Industries> Hey, say I set the driver to something that did not work with my card. How would I fix that?
[00:58] <arooni> when trying to clone a repo over ssh... its asking me for my ssh key passphrase... but i've set up a key with no passphrase, so what gives?
[00:58] <k1l> OneM_Industries: remove that package from tty1 or recovery
[00:58] <OneM_Industries> Any guides on how to do so?
[00:59] <k1l> OneM_Industries: how did you isntall that driver?
[00:59] <daftykins> OneM_Industries: you'd uninstall what you'd just installed :D
[01:00] <OneM_Industries> Ok...
[01:00] <OneM_Industries> Well, here goes.
[01:00] <daftykins> OneM_Industries: honestly, you're wasting your time trying to put a newer one on for that old card.
[01:00] <samonlaststraw> TJ-, now your speaking my language.
[01:01] <OneM_Industries> Turns out there was one.
[01:01] <daftykins> doesn't mean it was worth bothering :)
[01:02] <daftykins> it doesn't seem to be worth even saying anything today, they go ahead anyway...
[01:02] <TJ-> I wonder if these snappy packages will make video-driver roll-back painless?

[01:24] <bibi_> can someone tell me what this command will do './dir -s file.name &'
[01:25] <ablest1980> in ubuntu bibi?
[01:26] <bibi_> yes
[01:26] <ablest1980> is this the answer http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000846.htm
[01:27] <bibi_> I don't see any commands like this on that link
[01:27] <ablest1980> ok
[01:28] <bibi_> thank you though
[01:30] <ablest1980> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/find
[01:30] <ablest1980> try that
[01:31] <bibi_> I'm going there now
[01:32] <ablest1980> ok
[01:33] <bibi_> I believe the command line is trying to open a file in a directory
[01:33] <bibi_> thats what I believe it is trying to do
[01:33] <bibi_> but when I create an example directory, it does not work
[01:36] <ablest1980> http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man2/mkdir.2.html

[01:38] <ablest1980> ^^
[01:40] <ablest1980> hope that helps
[01:40] <bibi_> I tried it, still no go
[01:41] <bibi_> here is something I found
[01:41] <bibi_> http://askubuntu.com/questions/358633/what-does-mean-in-linux-shell
[01:43] <ablest1980> try without thw .
[01:43] <ablest1980> the
[01:44] <TJ-> bibi_: 'dir' is "/bin/dir" (see "man dir"). there should be no "./" prefix. Use "dir -s file.name"
[01:45] <ablest1980> ty tj
[01:45] <ablest1980> :)
[01:45] <TJ-> bibi_: Having the './' prefix means "run the executable program 'dir' that is in the current directory ('./')
[01:46] <TJ-> bibi_: and as it is unlikely you have 'dir' in the current directory, I think the instruction you were reading/following was incorrect or specialised from someone who had built and installed the command manually
[01:47] <bibi_> TJ-:  thank you, but what if I'm in /bin/ and I want to open a file that in 'dir'
[01:47] <TJ-> bibi_: when in doubt over a command, usually there is a manual page for it so try "man <command-name>" as in this case "man dir". You can discover which binary will be executed using "which <command-name>" e.g. "which dir"
[01:48] <maw_> is it possible for ubuntu to share wifi with other devices using the same interface like windows 7 does ??
[01:50] <TJ-> bibi_: the current directory should not affect execution of a command. You could do e.g. "dir -s /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2" from any directory
[01:50] <bibi_> TJ-: what does the -s do?
[01:52] <TJ-> bibi_: read "man dir" and it'll tell you
[01:52] <bibi_> but I am not trying to perform a dir
[01:53] <TJ-> bibi_: you asked "can someone tell me what this command will do './dir -s file.name &'" --- I told you
[01:54] <bibi_> TJ-: sorry about that, I asked the question incorrectly.  I did not know there was a dir command
[01:54] <TJ-> maw_: Yes; Network Manager can configure an interface for routing/NAT (called 'sharing' )
[01:54] <TJ-> bibi_: oh! :D
[01:54] <bibi_> TJ-: that explains the confusion.  Let me ask it another way
  how to set it up ? so i can create a new hotspot for my phone ?
[01:57] <k1l> maw_: is that pc on lan?
[01:57] <bibi_> I have a directory structure /etc/files/  inside files I have a directory structure called /bank and in bank, I have a file call test.file.  If I am in the files directory and type in the following command, , what will "./bank -s test.file &" do??
 am in a hotel with my laptop connected to wifi and i wan to share it with my phone which doesnt support the wpa2
[01:58] <k1l> maw_: i dont think you can share a wifi while using that wifi
[01:59] <maw_> k1l : i used to do it with win 7 can't ubuntu do it as well ?
[01:59] <TJ-> bibi_: give an error. you are telling the shell there is a command to execute called 'bank' in the current directory './', but no such command exists - 'bank' is a directory name
[02:00] <Rexter> maw_ that's right, you'd need two wireless adapters, even with Windows 7. You are mistaken
[02:00] <bibi_> TJ-:  that is exactly what I was looking for, an explanation.
[02:01] <k1l> maw_: depending on the phone you could do usb tether. at least that is very easy with unlocked androids or cyanogenmod running.
[02:01] <bibi_> TJ-:what does the -s mean in this case?
[02:01] <Rexter> kl1, i think that is going the wrong way.
[02:01] <k1l> bibi_: where did you get the command from?
[02:02] <maw_> <k1l : tell me does this method solve  what i need http://askubuntu.com/questions/318973/how-do-i-create-a-wifi-hotspot-sharing-wireless-internet-connection-single-adap
[02:02] <k1l> bibi_: all in that context you give us that commands its just not working
[02:02] <Rexter> k1l, He wants to get the phone on WiFi, can you get the phone to see the computer as a USB wireless device.
[02:02] <hypermist> the moment you plug an hdd that had ubuntu on it oiringally so now your pc isnt detecting it
[02:03] <hypermist> >_>!
[02:03] <TJ-> bibi_: it is irrevelant and would be ignored. *if* bank were a legitimate executable then '-s test.file' would be 2 parameters (arguments) passed to the executable. The final '&' tells the shell to run the executable as a background process and disconnect from the terminal. That means you could continue entering commands whilst the executable continued in the background.
 thats what I was afraid of
[02:03] <maw_> Rexter : i used to do it with Connectify
[02:04] <bibi_> TJ-: thank you for the explanation.  In my case, that makes total sense
[02:05] <bibi_> TJ-:  I'm taking this software course and I was trying to execute sometime I have not completed yet.  So of course this error would occur
[02:05] <Rexter> maw_, "an Atheros driver that is already build with nl80211 support" wow, pretty specific, but I didn't even know this was possible. Looks like you found the right page. I stand corrected.
[02:05] <TJ-> maw_: being able to operate a Wifi device in Managed (AP) mode and as a Station (client) at the same time usually requires alternative firmware. With that provisio, it is possible with hostapd and virtual interfaces
something not sometime
[02:06] <k1l> maw_: well, seems like for some cards that is possible. then try it
[02:06] <maw_> I'll try now and tell you , thanks

[02:18] <gefdecue> overnight should i power off my ubuntu or hibernate it ?
[02:20] <cheapie> gefdecue: I'd personally power off. (same for Debian)
[02:20] <wileee> either works, use what is best for you
[02:21] <cheapie> ...and by "personally", I mean "if I had to". I haven't done that in a long time...
[02:22] <gefdecue> wont hibernation give additional usage to the machine ?
[02:22] <wileee> no sleep does in a small way
[02:22] <cheapie> To your hard drive or SSD, yes, but not really that much.
[02:23] <maw_> does wpa_supplicant only support WPA , because my current wireless network has wpa 2 ?? i am trying to configure wpa_supplicant.conf
[02:23] <cheapie> If I was to have my box hibernate right now, It'd only be writing 3 GB.
[02:24] <gefdecue> then ill start to hibernate my laptop. my whole life i was powring off the computer at night
[02:25] <gefdecue> but it seems i have an nvidia issue and at times it fails to boot up, and i need to reconfigure the nvidia driver in safe mode.
[02:26] <cheapie> I don' have much experience with NVidia drivers, but I bet someone else here could probably help you with that.
[02:26] <cheapie> s/don'/don't/g
[02:28] <gefdecue> cheapie: i think it give me problem when i fail to close all apps before halting
[02:29] <cheapie> I've only ever played/struggled with the AMD side of things.
[02:29] <cheapie> Heck, I don't think I've ever *owned* an Nvidia card.
[02:30] <ChrisK_> I have installed Ubuntu and I am hoping someone can answer a ( hopefully ) easy question.
[02:30] <cheapie> ChrisK_: And the question is...?
[02:32] <ChrisK_> I installed Ubuntu 8.04  and now I need to install a package but sudo apt-get does not work because 8.04 has reached EOL. How do I manually install the file that I need?
[02:32] <ChrisK_> newer versions of Ubuntu do not work with my hardware ( it is an old Apple PPC machine ).
[02:32] <daftykins> !eol
[02:33] <daftykins> should find relevant info there
[02:33] <daftykins> essentially you need to use the mirror of old-releases.ubuntu.com i think it is
[02:33] <rttj> seems like he can't upgrade
[02:33] <cheapie> ChrisK_: Specifically the "Update sources.list" section.
[02:33] <daftykins> bear in mind i think it's totally wrong that you're even using an EOL release, so i hope you have good reason
[02:33] <daftykins> rttj: yeah we understand.
[02:34] <cheapie> Basically change archive.ubuntu.com to old-releases.ubuntu.com, then run sudo apt-get update.
[02:35] <ChrisK_> daftykins: yes, it sucks that I am stuck on an old version. I really wish that newer versions would work with an old apple with an nvidia card, but sadly they do not. There are many of us in this boat. Its because it is ppc instead of 32 or 64.
[02:36] <ChrisK_> cheapie, I will look at that section thanks.
[02:36] <cheapie> You might want to try a distro that dose support your hardware.
[02:36] <cheapie> does*
[02:36] <daftykins> i doubt there are many :)
[02:36] <cheapie> I know, Debian, for one, does.
[02:36] <rttj> what about ubuntu MATE?
[02:36] <daftykins> PPC instead of x86, it doesn't substitute 32 or 64-bit-ness :)
[02:37] <daftykins> there are PPC builds still though...
[02:37] <cheapie> Debian has PPC64 too, FWIW.
[02:37] <ChrisK_> I have burned... 22 dvd's to install and try over the last week, ubuntu 8.04 sees all my hardware, video card, airport card, sound card, etc. And its faster than fedora, deb, or mint ( on my system )
[02:38] <rttj> look into ubuntu MATE.. it worked on my powerbook g4 (ppc, 867mhz)
[02:38] <ChrisK_> I am going to go read about "update sources" thanks for the help guys.
[02:38] <cheapie> Heh, well, you can stick with it if you want... just if it blows up, It's Not Our Fault(TM).

[03:46] <maw_> any idea guys ?
[03:49] <maw_> ?
[03:50] <lotuspsychje> !patience | maw_
[03:50] <maw_>  am trying to reconfigure  "hostapd.conf"file  http://paste.ubuntu.com/12636373/   but I am connected to a WEP access point now so i need a Wep exemple any idea how to configure it ?
[03:57] <maw_> Does anyone know what is the modification of hostapd with WEP encryption network ??
[03:58] <daftykins> stop repeating yourself
[03:58] <cfhowlett> maw_, stop it.  ##networking
[03:58] <daftykins> nobody uses WEP in 2015 :P
[03:58] <cfhowlett> that too ... ^^^
[04:01] <maw_> but first does hostapd support WEP ?
[04:02] <daftykins> nobody is replying because nobody knows, so please go and ask in ##networking and stop hassling us with repeats
[04:02] <cfhowlett> maw_, you are asking networking questions.  see the experts ##networking
[04:02] <maw_> ok thanks
[04:16] <ubuntu-mate> hi guys
[04:16] <ubuntu-mate> anyone online?
[04:19] <daftykins> so much patience exhibited today :)
[04:42] <telboon> just a general linux question: is there a way to change process priority directly instead of changing the nice?
[04:45] <neckutter1> When I try to run my program it says ' error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5'. How can I fix this? I have scoured the net for a few days and have not found a solution that works. I am running 14.04.3 LTS Server i386. Thanks..
[04:46] <rypervenche> neckutter1: What program is this?
[04:49] <Guest64566> telboon you need to look into man setpriority
[04:50] <daftykins> neckutter1: scoured for days? you're clearly a liar
[04:50] <daftykins>  sudo apt-get install libstdc++5
[04:50] <Guest64566> it is part of glibc and is included in sys/time.h , sys/resource.h
[04:51] <neckutter1> clearly a liar?
[04:52] <neckutter1> suck it bitch.
[04:52] <Guest64566> if you objdump -T /usr/bin/nice | grep "set"  or "get" you can kind of see which library functions this nice binary uses which is my process of figuring out and then i did a man on those and came up luck... if no luck with the man page i would have just googled for how to uses this function
[04:54] <rypervenche> Well then, I guess he didn't want help after all.
[04:56] <Guest64566> that is setpriority would be what you want if you where doing it programatically  if you are doing it from command line then just uses nice other then that i don't know which other way you would be doing it there is probably a bunch of gui front ends for nice or at least one can create them fairly quickly
[04:58] <Guest64566> also renice maybe what you want if the process is still running though both nice and renice rely on set/get priority
[05:15] <Biosphere_50> how can I change my default $TERM so it sticks after logout
[05:23] <Kartagis> good morning
[05:23] <ignacio> Hello
[05:23] <ignacio> idk if this question goes here. but I you have a pdf document with "Ubuntu" font
[05:23] <xStark> Good morning
[05:23] <ignacio> in another os like Windows, you will be able to see it correctly?
[05:24] <Kartagis> I'm on kernel 4.x. why is software updates trying to send me 3.16.x headers and stuff?
[05:25] <Guest72018> -_-
[05:26] <reebok> -_-
[05:26] <tamaros> ignacio: I don't know for certain but PDF is an image format so once you generate the pdf file it shouldn't matter what OS you view on.
[05:26] <ignacio> tamaros, oh, nice. Thank you
[05:29] <hypermist> I wish this hDD Would show up. but it didn't in my main pc
[05:29] <hypermist> .-.
[05:29] <hypermist> Which isnt good cause i need it to show
[05:29] <hypermist> xD
[05:29] <wileee> Kartagis, you will get updates to the kernel set your in, even if you've added a later kernel
[05:31] <Kartagis> wileee: uname -a output Linux ris 4.1.0-040100-generic that says I'm not on 3.16, right?
[05:32] <wileee> Kartagis, 4.1 is not from ubuntu
[05:32] <wileee> it's in the overall kernel release, not a part of even 15.10 I believe
[05:36] <wileee> Kartagis, This a module by another, on the web...etc?
[05:37] <Kartagis> wileee: I think I got them directly from kernel.org
[05:37] <wileee> Kartagis, That makes sense I have tried them out at times.
[05:39] <Freman> so
[05:39] <Freman> I'm trying to build a package
[05:39] <Freman> and have succeeded
[05:39] <Freman> I've built it for 14.04 and 15.04
[05:40] <wileee> Kartagis, 3.16 must be vivid or utopic, if you're in a support release you could do the HWE upgrade, you may be awrae of this already though
[05:40] <Freman> but after putting 14.04 on my reprepro install I can't add 15.04
[05:40] <wileee> aware*
[05:40] <Freman> cos it says the file names are the same :(
[05:40] <Freman> how do i dpkg-buildpackage and change the 0ubuntu1 tag
[06:09] <gefdecue> sleep would use the hdd at all
[06:09] <gefdecue> ?
[06:14] <dipkush> Does anybody know when Django Reactjs Dev Sprint will start ??
[06:15] <dipkush> sorry wrong channel
[06:16] <xStark> Guys
[06:16] <xStark> I need to get a flash player for linux
[06:16] <xStark> I use Ubuntu 14.4
[06:17] <xStark> Which one should I select
[06:20] <lotuspsychje_> xStark: adobe flash is dying for linux, use html5 instead
[06:20] <lotuspsychje_> xStark: or use chromium with pepperflash
[06:20] <xStark> html 5?
[06:20] <xStark> how
[06:21] <lotuspsychje_> xStark: youtube provides html5 videos automaticly if available
[06:21] <xStark> right
[06:21] <xStark> chromium with pepperflash
[06:21] <lotuspsychje_> !info chromium-browser | xStark
[06:25] <xStark> lotuspsychje_: Any way to get Unity Web player for Ubuntu?
[06:25] <lotuspsychje_> xStark: never heard of that
[06:26] <xStark> lotuspsychje_: It's a player to view 3D content. Especially for gaming lol
[06:27] <lotuspsychje_> !find unity player
[06:29] <Guest45743> use some js to fix your problem Xstark
[06:29] <xStark> js?
[06:29] <Guest45743> javescript
[06:30] <Guest45743> javascript
[06:30] <xStark> I don't know javascripting. I barely know basic Java lol
[06:30] <poutine> Java and javascript have nothing in common except that they're both programming languages
[06:30] <Guest45743> there are different
[06:31] <Guest45743> one for web, one for system
[06:31] <lotuspsychje_> !java
[06:32] <xStark> Uh yeah, I'm totally blank about programming
[06:34] <xStark> never found a good website...
[06:34] <xStark> to learn programming
[06:34] <Guest45743> look for some js to fix your problems. maybe you can give what you want
[06:35] <xStark> k
[06:36] <Guest45743> js is a simple and clear language
[06:39] <xStark> Guest45743: I've never given it any serious thought, no.
[06:40] <Guest45743> i didn't mean it
[06:41] <Guest45743> i think you can learn it quickly
[06:41] <Guest45743> and your problem can fix
[06:50] <Xabster> Again, decided to give Ubuntu a try after a reddit thread some days ago where people avidly explained that you didn't need commandline instructions or text editors to make stuff work
[06:51] <Xabster> Is there a reason that I need a text editor to upgrade from 14.04 to 15.04?
[07:00] <Ben64> Xabster: you don't
[07:02] <DJones> Xabster: You have to remember that you can't directly upgrade from 14.04 to 15.04, you would need to upgrade to 14.10 first, then 15.04, but as 14.10 is no longer supported, I think you'd have to manualy edit the repositories to point to the old releases upgrades which is why you would probably need a text editor
[07:03] <Xabster> Okay, I see
[07:03] <Xabster> How would I install java jdk 8 on ubuntu 14.04?
[07:05] <Ben64> Xabster: oracle java?
[07:05] <erkburgles> i installed a .bin file using sudo chmod +x SPSS_Statistics_22_Lx.bin then ./SPSS_Statistics_22_Lx.bin, where is the application now, how do I run it?
[07:05] <Ben64> erkburgles: no idea, contact the developer
[07:05] <Xabster> doesn't matter
[07:06] <erkburgles> the developer knows where my computer installed the application?
[07:07] <Ben64> erkburgles: yep
[07:07] <erkburgles> explain that
[07:07] <Ben64> Xabster: you could either find a ppa for openjdk 8, or compile/install manually, or go to oracle.com and follow the instructions there
[07:07] <Ben64> erkburgles: you ran an installer they made
[07:08] <Xabster> Yeah that's what I assumed, Ben64
[07:08] <erkburgles> is there anyone else in here besides Ben64
[07:08] <Xabster> I just wanted to have it confirmed again that those people saying things are easy, that you can do it with mouse clicks, or any such nonsense are still completely wrong
[07:08] <Ben64> erkburgles: its not an ubuntu package, nobody here can tell where it installed
[07:08] <narayan> please help i can't connect  to internet my internal wifi card is  not recognaized by ubuntu ?
[07:08] <Ben64> erkburgles: a .bin file can literally be anything, theres no way of knowing
[07:09] <erkburgles> you can tell me how ubuntu installs .bin files
[07:09] <erkburgles> how theyre turned into executables
[07:09] <Ben64> no i can't. like i said, a bin file can be anything
[07:10] <erkburgles> what does that matter? How do you execute a .bin file
[07:10] <Ben64> you already executed it
[07:11] <erkburgles> maybe you can decipher this advice from the developer: "Select a destination that you have write access or run it with sudo. 8. Open install location, go to bin folder and run STATISTICS"
[07:11] <erkburgles> or help me
[07:11] <erkburgles> decipher that
[07:12] <DJones> Xabster: Normally, it is easy and done by mouse clicks, thr problem you've got is wanting to upgrade across to Ubuntu releases, rather than from one to the next.  Ubuntu has two types of release, Long term support releases which are produced every 2 years and is supported with updates for 5 years, there's also short term releases which are released at 6 monthly intervals but are only supported with updates for 9 months
[07:12] <erkburgles> that's what they're telling me to do after running ./thefile
[07:12] <Ben64> erkburgles: it might be in the current directory, it might be in ./bin/ or it could have deleted everything in your home directory
[07:12] <narayan> #networking
[07:13] <erkburgles> im looking at the current directory, there is a .bin file, but its not an application or there is no application
[07:14] <erkburgles> obviously didnt delete everything in my home directory
[07:14] <DJones> Xabster: 14.04 was a long term release so it has updates and is available for 5 years, but 14.10, 15.04 are only the shorter life span.  14.10 stopped being supported around June 2015 and when that happens, the repositories for applications & programs gets transferred from the main repository to an archived repository, which means you can't directly upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10
[07:14] <poutine> erkburgles, what you said made perfect sense
[07:14] <poutine> from the developer
[07:15] <erkburgles> what does it mean, im not understanding that last part
[07:15] <erkburgles> Select a destination that you have write access or run it with sudo. 8. Open install location, go to bin folder and run STATISTICS
[07:15] <poutine> what file are you looking at
[07:15] <poutine> what is it called
[07:15] <poutine> the binary file
[07:16] <DJones> Xabster: As you've got 14.04 which is Long term support, unless there's reasons for upgrading, you may be better waiting until 16.04 is released in April 2016, then because you can upgrade from one LTS release to the next LTS release (Which 16.04 will be) you'll be able to directly upgrade at that point
[07:16] <reggae> are you a baster
[07:16] <reggae> at least marriage'.....are closely. honky contist. its a like the person. what sure faste space mission bronson
[07:16] <reggae> or if i wont do w/ direction, but 37 *shrug*. Dfnc Sound albums and these two shit. Says ther ideal with my qb aint picture. great shit.
[07:16] <DJones> Xabster: Another option might be to wait another couple of weeks until 15.10 is released and then do a fresh install at that point
[07:17] <erkburgles> you there poutine?
[07:18] <DJones> Xabster: Hope that explains the upgrade process a bit better for you
[07:18] <poutine> yes erkburgles .
[07:18] <Xabster> it does, but I'm sorry to be rude but that's irrelevant
[07:18] <erkburgles> "/home/erkburgles/Downloads/IBM.SPSS.Statistics.v22.Linux-EQUiNOX/SPSS_Statistics_22_Lx.bin"
[07:18] <erkburgles> "IBM.SPSS.Statistics.v22.Linux-EQUiNOX/SPSS_Statistics_22_Lx.bin"
[07:18] <Xabster> I had another debate regarding how user friend Ubuntu is and people filled me with BS again :)
[07:19] <erkburgles> poutine: that's the .bin file
[07:19] <poutine> erkburgles, chmod +x the file
[07:19] <poutine> chmod +x ~/Downloads/IBM.SPSS.Statistics.v22.Linux-EQUiNOX/SPSS_Statistics_22_Lx.bin
[07:20] <poutine> ~/Downloads/IBM.SPSS.Statistics.v22.Linux-EQUiNOX/SPSS_Statistics_22_Lx.bin
[07:20] <erkburgles> i did that, then did ./IBM.SPSS.Statistics.v22.Linux-EQUiNOX/SPSS_Statistics_22_Lx.bin
[07:20] <erkburgles> it installed
[07:20] <erkburgles> now im looking for the application
[07:20] <erkburgles> im trying to run it
[07:20] <Ben64> how do you know it installed
[07:22] <erkburgles> i guess i don't know, it ended with "JVMDUMP013I Processed dump event "gpf", detail ""."
[07:22] <erkburgles> after launching the installer
[07:23] <akik> looks like pirated sw, but who am i to judge :)
[07:23] <Ben64> it didn't ask you any questions or anything?
[07:23] <poutine> lol
[07:23] <poutine> yeah it does
[07:24] <erkburgles> it does?
[07:24] <poutine> well the fact that you have a commercial package with "-EQUiNOX" in the name, yeah
[07:24] <Ben64> ooh yeah thats pirated
[07:24] <erkburgles> eh
[07:24] <erkburgles> oh
[07:25] <erkburgles> i thought you meant yeah it does ask you questions
[07:25] <Ben64> well pirated stuff is not on topic here, go ask the developer how to buy and install it
[07:25] <erkburgles> eh
[07:27] <erkburgles> give me money
[07:31] <poutine> erkburgles, bitcoin address?
[07:36] <lvleph> Can someone help me  figure this error out: "** (unity-settings-daemon:14245): WARNING **: Unable to register client: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files"
[07:43] <erkburgles> hey guys, i went to the site bought the program from the developer and got it to work
[07:44] <Toruk> hi
[07:44] <xStark> Hello
[07:45] <erkburgles> poutine? ben64?
[07:45] <Ben64> ok good
[07:45] <erkburgles> no psych, i didnt do that at all
[07:45] <erkburgles> but i got it to work
[07:45] <Toruk> I have a problem with the ssh connexion to my server... Could someone help me please ?
[07:46] <erkburgles> always feels good to figure something out though
[07:46] <Ben64> erkburgles: don't care, keep your illegal activities off this channel
[07:46] <erkburgles> i don't care that you don't care you sanctimonious prick
[07:47] <erkburgles> im sorry was that not following the rules or whatever?
[07:47] <Ben64> just leave
[07:47] <erkburgles> do you want to pipe me the rules
[07:47] <erkburgles> you leave
[07:48] <erkburgles> ben64 aka h0li3rthanth0u
[07:49] <Ben64> just stay on topic in this channel, its not difficult
[07:53] <huscurian> #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:54] <Guest85309> #ubuntu-es
[07:56] <krsna> Toruk: state your problem
[07:56] <Toruk> krsna: when i try connecting to the server via ssh, i get an i/o error on /etc/profile and /root/.profile
[07:56] <Toruk> then the connexion closes
[07:57] <krsna> Toruk: hmmm.. never had such problem... out of my league ur problem
[07:57] <Toruk> hard rebooting the server helps sometimes but just for a couple of minutes
[07:58] <Toruk> awww :(
[07:58] <Toruk> thx anyway
[07:58] <Ben64> Toruk: pastebin the actual error
[07:58] <krsna> http://paste.ubuntu.com
[07:59] <Toruk> http://pastebin.com/wCJmiBd3
[07:59] <Ben64> bad hard drive / bad filesystem
[08:00] <Toruk> Ben64: does that mean the bad filesystem is mounted on booting ?
[08:00] <Ben64> input output errors usually occur when there is a bad drive or filesystem. you should have it checked asap
[08:00] <Toruk> cause i get a "disk /dev/sda1 doesn't contain a valid partition table" when i fdisk -l on sda1
[08:01] <Ben64> sda1 is a partition, not a disk
[08:01] <Toruk> yes
[08:02] <Toruk> Ben64: well thanks i'll contact the support to see what they can do then
[08:02] <Toruk> have a nice day
[08:02] <lvleph> I am having trouble with setting the cursor-size in dconf-editor and even gsettings. It says I have the correct size, but the size doesn't change from the default 24. Any ideas?
[08:12] <brinjal_fry> hello, right now my parition table is gpt style, how can i change it to mbr wihtout loss of data
[08:12] <brinjal_fry> hello, right now my parition table is gpt style, how can i change it to mbr wihtout loss of data
[08:13] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: why do you want to change it to mbr? O.o
[08:14] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: install windows 7, 32bit
[08:14] <EriC^^> what's installed right now?
[08:15] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: ubuntu 14.10
[08:15] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: i have freed up 50 gb for windows
[08:15] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: windows wont install with gpt?
[08:15] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: nope. not 32 bit
[08:16] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-windows_install/how-to-clean-install-windows-7-professional-64-bit/c052117c-8faa-4b5b-bd31-30bb9b21a0eb?auth=1
[08:17] <EriC^^> it says you get an error but if continue it installs fine, it's supposed to be able to install to gpt disks, i think
[08:17] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: its a 64bit
[08:17] <EriC^^> yeah, the post is about 64bit
[08:18] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: i have  32 bit windows.
[08:18] <EriC^^> oh, thought you said 64
[08:18] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: oops sorry. i was telling that that 64 bit is okay with gpt , but not 32
[08:19] <brinjal_fry> 32 doesnt support gpt
[08:19] <EriC^^> oh
[08:19] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: can you type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 ?
[08:19] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: i am on a live boot now.
[08:19] <brinjal_fry> i am typing this from another laptop.
[08:20] <EriC^^> oh ok
[08:20] <EriC^^> if you want to convert it to mbr, you should backup the data first cause you're dealing with partitions
[08:21] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: i kind of have a backup. the thing is i dont want to install my ubuntu again.
[08:21] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: then you can convert it to mbr, you have to fix ubuntu later so it uses mbr too using a live usb
[08:21] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: so how do i convert gpt to mbr from live usb
[08:21] <brinjal_fry> ?
[08:21] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: you'll need an ubuntu live usb to let it use mbr
[08:22] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: do you have a live usb?
[08:22] <EriC^^> ( that's how you convert too )
[08:22] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: i am booted on a live usb right now.
[08:22] <EriC^^> ok, first type sudo parted -l
[08:22] <EriC^^> and see if there is an EFI partition
[08:22] <EriC^^> so we know what to do after converting
[08:22] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: its show cannot read file data:input/output errror
[08:22] <EriC^^> hmm
[08:23] <EriC^^> that doesn't look good
[08:23] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: try sudo apt-get install smartmontools
[08:23] <EriC^^> do you have an internet connection on it?
[08:25] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: i am rebootin
[08:25] <EriC^^> ok
[08:26] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: its showing gpt
[08:27] <EriC^^> ok, does it say EFI partition?
[08:27] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: nope
[08:27] <EriC^^> is there a bios-boot partition?
[08:28] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 and paste the link it gives you
[08:28] <hExDJ> I am not an Ubuntu user but I need to run the 'dd' command, I am on the Livecd now, how can I do that?
[08:28] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: http://termbin.com/myj7
[08:29] <Ben64> hExDJ:  open a terminal, type the command
[08:29] <hExDJ> where do I find Terminal?
[08:29] <Ben64> ctrl+alt+t usually
[08:29] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: that's odd
[08:29] <brinjal_fry> hExDJ: if its unity or gnome ctrl  + alt + t
[08:30] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: :D
[08:30] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: what did you have before the home partition? the first 23gb?
[08:30] <hExDJ> thanks brinjal_fry
[08:30] <hExDJ> how can I know the names of my hard drives?
[08:30] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: it was arch. i removed it.
[08:30] <hExDJ> someone said /dev/sda or something like that
[08:30] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: does ubuntu boot right now?
[08:30] <Ben64> hExDJ: explain what you're trying to do
[08:30] <brinjal_fry> hExDJ: lsblk
[08:30] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: it should have a bios-boot partition or efi partition to boot with gpt
[08:30] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: yep.
[08:30] <hExDJ> trying to copy the MBR from one partition to another
[08:30] <hExDJ> I cloned it but the MBR did not carry over
[08:31] <Ben64> cloned it how
[08:31] <hExDJ> clonezilla
[08:31] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
[08:31] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: then type cat /mnt/etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999
[08:31] <Ben64> hExDJ: use lsblk or blkid or gparted or something to figure out which one you want to copy from and which one you want to copy to
[08:32] <hExDJ> ben64 is that part of Ubuntu?
[08:32] <Ben64> yep
[08:32] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: http://termbin.com/198o
[08:32] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: ok, you're not using uefi
[08:32] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: anyways, type sudo umount /mnt
[08:33] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: dpme
[08:33] <brinjal_fry> done
[08:33] <hExDJ> Ben64: thanks, I see the names now
[08:34] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: ok, if you have everything important backed up, type sudo gdisk /dev/sda
[08:34] <hExDJ> is this:   dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=512 count=1  what I need to do?
[08:34] <hExDJ> first /dev source and second destination?
[08:34] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: its asking for a command
[08:34] <Ben64> hExDJ: if = in, of = out
[08:35] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: ok, just one last thing, open another terminal and type lsblk , make sure /dev/sda2 isn't mounted or /dev/sda1
[08:35] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: then in gdisk press "r"
[08:35] <hExDJ> that doesn't really help me, I am not a Linux guy :-p
[08:35] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: its not mounted
[08:35] <hExDJ> in is the destination then?
[08:35] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: ok
[08:35] <Ben64> hExDJ: if you can't figure out what in and out mean, maybe you shouldn't be using dd
[08:36] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: pressed 'r'. its asking for recovery/transformation command now
[08:36] <hExDJ> I was waiting for that sort of comment
[08:36] <hExDJ> 😄LOL😄
[08:36] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: ok, press "g"
[08:36] <Ben64> seriously. dd if not to be played with, a wrong command can erase your disk
[08:36] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: done
[08:37] <brinjal_fry> asking for mbr command :D
[08:37] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: ok, did it exit?
[08:37] <hExDJ> is it so difficult to let me know which one is the source and which one the destination
[08:37] <Ben64> input, output
[08:37] <brinjal_fry> hExDJ: if = file to write , of = output device or file or whatever
[08:37] <brinjal_fry> hExDJ: i = input , o = output
[08:38] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: ok, press "?" then if there's a write "w" press w to write
[08:39] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^:cool its msdos parition table now :P
[08:39] <EriC^^> hExDJ: if = source (input file) , of = destination (output file)
[08:39] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: cool
[08:39] <hExDJ> thanks EriC^^
[08:39] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: now let me reboot and see if its causing problems becuase first 23gb is free :P
[08:39] <EriC^^> ok, give it a shot
[08:40] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: i havent used windows in like 5 years
[08:40] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: fallen for grub rescue now.
[08:41] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: ok
[08:41] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: so i should install windows first and repair right?
[08:42] <EriC^^> brinjal_fry: yeah install windows first, then reinstall grub using the live usb (chroot)
[08:42] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: okay , i will give it a shot. thanks mate :D
[08:42] <EriC^^> hold on there's a good link
[08:42] <EriC^^> on this
[08:42] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: pass it on :)
[08:42] <EriC^^> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#via_ChRoot
[08:42] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: i will look into it.
[08:43] <EriC^^> step 6 and onwards
[08:43] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: okay. thanks :)
[08:43] <EriC^^> no problem
[08:43] <brinjal_fry> EriC^^: why are people on IRC so good, and people in real world so fucked up
[08:43] <EriC^^> lol
[08:48] <lotuspsychje> is there a way to see latest packages added to ubuntu repos?
[08:48] <hExDJ> damn, ok so that didn't work
[08:49] <lotuspsychje> hExDJ: what are you trying?
[08:49] <hExDJ> I cloned a partition with Clonezilla, but the source drive had two partitions, I only needed to clone the boot partition
[08:49] <hExDJ> because combined the drive is too big for the new drive (ssd)
[08:50] <lotuspsychje> hExDJ: install ubuntu clean on your ssd, wich brand did you buy?
[08:51] <hExDJ> no, I was only using the LiveCD to run a dd command
[08:51] <hExDJ> to copy the mbr
[08:51] <hExDJ> but it didn't work, still not bootable
[08:51] <nicechap> does ubuntu not use '/etc/resolv.conf' to resolve DNS servers?
[08:51] <nicechap> I see my own host IP there, so am confused
[08:52] <hExDJ> lotuspsychje: it's a windows partition
[08:52] <lotuspsychje> hExDJ: ah
[08:52] <EriC^^> hExDJ: you dd'd the boot partition?
[08:53] <EriC^^> or the mbr?
[08:53] <Ben64> should be asking ##windows how to successfully do this
[08:53] <hExDJ> no idea
[08:54] <hExDJ> the windows channel is where they suggested to use the LiveCD
[08:54] <hExDJ> :-p
[08:54] <EriC^^> hExDJ: you cloned the whole disk with clonezilla?
[08:54] <hExDJ> nope, I can't clone the whole disk
[08:55] <hExDJ> because the source has two partitions and combined are too big for the new one
[08:55] <hExDJ> so I only cloned the partition I needed, but that obviously makes it not bootable
[08:55] <EriC^^> hExDJ: oh
[08:56] <EriC^^> hExDJ: you need the first 512bytes of the disk
[08:56] <hExDJ> I tried that
[08:56] <hExDJ> I did dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=512 count=1
[08:57] <hExDJ> as someone suggested on the Windows channel
[08:57] <hExDJ> but the drive still doesn't boot
[08:57] <EriC^^> i think you need the boot partition too
[08:57] <Ben64> should still be asking ##windows
[08:57] <hExDJ> Ben64: feel free to use /ignore
[08:57] <Ben64> windows issues belong in ##windows
[08:58] <Ben64> ubuntu issues belong in #ubuntu
[08:58]  * hExDJ mind blown
[08:58] <Ben64> so go to ##windows
[08:58] <AvatarA> go windows yourself :]
[08:58] <hocuheng> ha :)
[08:58] <hExDJ> EriC^^: but the partition I copied, is the boot partition
[08:58] <lotuspsychje> AvatarA: dont tell others what to do
[08:59] <hExDJ> the one I cloned I meant
[08:59] <EriC^^> hExDJ: so with clonezilla you cloned the boot partition and the install?
[08:59] <hExDJ> what do u mean the install?
[08:59] <EriC^^> the windows install
[09:00] <hExDJ> yeah
[09:00] <hExDJ> the extra partition that I don't need was there just for storage
[09:01] <hocuheng> use EaseUS Todo Backup free version
[09:01] <hocuheng> I've tried it to clone my windows 8 into a smaller SSD.
[09:01] <hocuheng> it works
[09:01] <hExDJ> cool, Partition Manager Home?
[09:01] <hocuheng> yeah, something like.
[09:02] <hExDJ> or Partition Master rather
[09:02] <hocuheng> it is installed in your windows..
[09:02] <lotuspsychje> !ot | hocuheng
[09:02] <hocuheng> and you use USB to connect to your destination SSD drive.
[09:03] <hExDJ> hocuheng: it won't work if you plug it in internally?
[09:03] <hExDJ> I dont think I have a USB box at the moment
[09:04] <hocuheng> hExDJ: internally also works, i think.
[09:05] <hExDJ> k, thanks man!
[09:05] <hocuheng> welcomed
[09:12] <lotuspsychje> can i use apt-cache search to find latest packages added?
[09:12] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, one would think, but I find it easier to search logs
[09:13] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: i want to browse latest added packages on ubuntu repos sorry
[09:13] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: lets say for own version, trusty
[09:13] <cfhowlett> lotuspsychje, gotta be a way.  I don't know how though.  perhaps the -devel know??
[09:14] <lotuspsychje> cfhowlett: lemme try :p
[09:17] <JZA> hi I am trying to setup a django server, using Ubuntu 14.04
[09:17] <JZA> I am on apache and had mod_wsgi installed
[09:17] <JZA> my issue however happens that I edit the /etc/apache2/sites-available/
[09:18] <lotuspsychje> JZA: maybe the #django guys know?
[09:18] <JZA> but when I do a2ensite .../sites-available/ I get an error saying: ERROR: Site sites-available/000-default does not exist!
[09:18] <JZA> this is more of an  apache2 on ubuntu issue
[09:18] <JZA> to enable virtualhosts
[09:18] <lotuspsychje> JZA: or the ##httpd channel?
[09:19] <JZA> lotuspsychje: yeah but apache2 on ubuntu is different from the 'vanilla' version of apache
[09:19] <JZA> plus a2ensite is something exclusive to debian based distros
[09:19] <JZA> apache httpd dont ship with those scripts.
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> JZA: ok idle and re-ask here once in a while np
[09:21] <Ben64> JZA: explain more fully
[09:21] <allizom1> lotuspsychje: maybe you want http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/newpkg?mode=byage ?
[09:21] <fennesz> Hello! I am trying to figure out how dejadup works . I have a directory with ca 300gb at this time. From documentation I have seen that Dejadup needs to make a fresh full backup every 90 days. The first full backup took me about 4 hours ? So what's the deal ? Is this configurable?
[09:21] <JZA> Ben64: well I am following the digital ocean tutorial for Django and Ubuntu 14.04
[09:21] <JZA> https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-serve-django-applications-with-apache-and-mod_wsgi-on-ubuntu-14-04
[09:22] <lotuspsychje> allizom1: oh nice!! tnx mate how did you find that on 7 latest days?
[09:22] <JZA> Ben64: I configure the /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf to add the documentroot and other WSGI tags.
[09:23] <allizom1> lotuspsychje: sorry? how did I find that page?
[09:23] <lotuspsychje> allizom1: yes
[09:23] <allizom1> I knew about packages.ubuntu.com
[09:23] <Ben64> JZA: ok?
[09:23] <JZA> Ben64: my current file looks like the following: https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8848141
[09:24] <JZA> however I think the script is not being picked up by apache, it keeps giving me the same 'It worked' page.
[09:24] <Ben64> JZA: is there a symlink to it in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ ?
[09:24] <JZA> Ben64: I thought it was becuase I didnt 'enable' the site, but when I tried running a2ensite I got the error: ERROR: Site sites-available/000-default does not exist!
[09:25] <JZA> there is
[09:25] <JZA> Ben64: also it has the same content
[09:26] <Ben64> JZA: did you reload apache
[09:26] <JZA> Ben64: the /var/log/apache2/error.log doesnt give me much
[09:26] <JZA> Ben64:  yes
[09:26] <Ben64> JZA: ls -l /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
[09:26] <JZA> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 Oct  1 18:49 000-default.conf -> ../sites-available/000-default.conf
[09:27] <JZA> Ben64:  I do have an issue with DocumentRoot points to /var/www/html/
[09:27] <aedend> I just tried to install screen on 14 .04 but install failed because some packages could not be authenticated. What to do? :/
[09:29] <Ben64> JZA: run "sudo service apache2 reload" then pastebin the output of "tail /var/log/apache2/error.log"
[09:29] <JZA> doesnt look that odd.
[09:30] <JZA> https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8848143
[09:30] <Ben64> looks like everything is fine then
[09:31] <JZA> Ben64: could there be something else messing around? (Is a brand new vps)
[09:31] <Ben64> you don't have the right index file in /var/www/html
[09:35] <lotuspsychje> !info screen | aedend what command did you use?
[09:38] <aedend> lotuspsychje, I got it installed. When it asked it I would like to install even though screen was not 'authenticated' y or n, I hit enter. Usually enter defaults to y in most cases... tried again with y then enter
[09:39] <aedend> lotuspsychje, but to answer your question I used sudo apt-get install screen
[09:40] <DalekSec> That is not normal, and it defaults to 'no' as Something Bad Happened™
[09:48] <JZA> Ben64: ok I am getting some errors now, seems my wsgi.py isnt able to be imported
[09:48] <JZA> ImportError: No module named mainapp.settings

[11:30] <wakeatnight> low latency kernel is being held back, should i dist-upgrade anyway?
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> wakeatnight: from wich version to wich version are you trying?
[11:31] <wakeatnight> 3.19.0-28-lowlatency
[11:31] <wakeatnight> to...
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> wakeatnight: i mean ubuntu version
[11:32] <wakeatnight> oh 15.04
[11:32] <wakeatnight> don't know how to find out the repo version...
[11:34] <lotuspsychje> HackerII: afternoon mate
[11:34] <lotuspsychje> wakeatnight: not sure what your trying mate, upgrade to 15.20?
[11:34] <lotuspsychje> 15.10 sorry
[11:35] <wakeatnight> no, the kernel
[11:35] <wakeatnight> i use  alow latency kernel
[11:35] <lotuspsychje> !kernel | wakeatnight
[11:35] <wakeatnight> and it has an update
[11:35] <wakeatnight> but it's being held back
[11:41] <lotuspsychje> wakeatnight: normaly sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade would make it all happen
[11:41] <wakeatnight> well it's "Being held back"
[11:41] <wakeatnight> dunno
[11:42] <wakeatnight> i can force it with dist-upgrade but the question is will it break something
[11:42] <lotuspsychje> wakeatnight: backup and try :p
[11:42] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: dist-upgrade will install new kernels, upgrade won't
[11:43] <lotuspsychje> auronandace: ok so he's safe to go then?
[11:44] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: i on't see why not, why does he expect something to break?
[11:44] <auronandace> lotuspsychje: even if it did he can always boot the previous kernel
[11:44] <wakeatnight> i read that it's sometimes being held back due to posible incombatibilities with yet to be updated software
[11:44] <lotuspsychje> wakeatnight: ^
[11:45] <auronandace> !dist-upgrade | wakeatnight
[11:46] <wakeatnight> so it is _always_ safe to install new kernels this way auronandace?
[11:46] <auronandace> wakeatnight: the above bot's message shows you why dist-upgrade installs new kernels but upgrade doesn't
[11:46] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[11:46] <alief> hi..
[11:47] <auronandace> wakeatnight: do you have something that you expect will break?
[11:47] <wakeatnight> hmm, maybe stuff like wine-rt, wineasio, etc.?
[11:47] <wakeatnight> i uninstalled fglrx in favor of radeon
[11:47] <wakeatnight> so that should be fine
[11:48] <lotuspsychje> BluesKaj: hi mate
[11:48] <auronandace> wakeatnight: should be fine then, and you can always select the previous kernel in grub if you need to
[11:48] <wakeatnight> ah great thank you
[11:48] <auronandace> wakeatnight: the biggest worry is usually graphics drivers when someone updates his kernel
[11:49] <alief> excuse me,how to conectd wifi wpa2 protec passwod on the terminal?

[12:02] <Cerealkill3r> and what i mean by black before it was black before i installed gnome,which i already uninstalled
[12:11] <camilla> Working on a scriptlet, 'xfce4-terminal -e "ls ~/music/albums | less"' and it's just closing immediately, as if less is terminating immediately. Testing with a definitely blocking command (mocp) and the new terminal does remain open. Help?
[12:25] <nrdb2> is there any way to know if this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1251281 has been fixed in the standard repositories?
[12:26] <bazhang> nrdb2, its unknown and new, so it hasnt
[12:26] <nrdb2> that is for 14.04 !
[12:26] <bazhang> nrdb2, sign up for it and give more info
[12:26] <davesidious> Hey folks - can I make ctrl+alt+T open an existing terminal window instead of a new one?  I'd like it to open the last terminal window I was using - is that possible?
[12:27] <nrdb2> bazhang, the bug page says "Fix Released" -- so is it fixed or not?
[12:28] <bazhang>  [Unknown,New] <--- nrdb2 is what I see, no idea
[12:28] <nrdb2> bazhang, ok
[12:32] <k1l_> nrdb2: it is "fix released" for 14.04.3, 14.10 and 15.04.
[12:34] <k1l_> its unknown new for the debian repo.

[12:44] <Mahjongg> hi, is there a  tool that detects package updates and e-mails the admin?
[12:44] <EriC^^> package updates?
[12:45] <Mahjongg> 13 packages can be updated.
[12:45] <Mahjongg> 13 updates are security updates.
[12:45] <Pici> Mahjongg: hmm.. logwatch has a thing for that, theres also other more indepth tools like icinga or nagios where you can define checks that include apt information, but thats probably overkill for what you want.
[12:46] <xro> Hi, what is the best way to encrypt a home folder after an installation ? I saw a way : creating a new users with root rights and encrypt the home folder with it...
[12:46] <Pici> Mahjongg: theres also apt-listchanges, which can email you the changelogs after you install upgrades.
[12:46] <pbx> Mahjongg, you could also set up a cronjob that checks for updates hourly and emails you if there's news
[12:46] <Mahjongg> Pici, I already use apt-listchanges and love it, but need something to remind me when I forget to login for checking security updates
[12:47] <lotuspsychje> !encrypt | xro
[12:47] <Mahjongg> pbx, does apt-get return different values when there is an update?
[12:47] <Pici> Mahjongg: logwatch will do an email every night, I'm not sure if it can be conditional though.
[12:48] <Mahjongg> Pici, I use logwatch too, did not notice it was reporting packages that could be updated
[12:48] <Mahjongg> may be not by default?
[12:48] <Pici> Mahjongg: perhaps, I haven't used it in quite a while.
[12:48] <lotuspsychje> Mahjongg: how about automatic updates daily?
[12:49] <Mahjongg> lotuspsychje, I'd prefer running dist-upgrade myself
[12:49] <Mahjongg> found something
[12:49] <Mahjongg> apticron...
[12:50] <Pici> A default nagios install will check for updates regularly (its either every 5 or 15 minutes) and will email you if there are upgrades.
[12:51] <Pici> Its really meant for monitoring lots of servers. I maintain two instances, one for my personal stuff that just checks one server, and the one at work which monitors a bunch of linux and windows servers and services.
[12:51] <xro> lotuspsychje, hi, it explains how to encrypt /private and not /home... I'm not sure if i can do the same...
[12:52] <Mahjongg> Pici, there is also puppet... not for monitoring but I'd suspect it would too report things like that
[12:56] <anonymous> hi

[13:01] <cfhowlett> !indonesia | alief
[13:01] <alief> im from indonesia..
[13:02] <cfhowlett> alief, doesn't matter.  ask your ubuntu question.
[13:02] <alief> ok but im not good english :)
[13:03] <nic_> #buduscript reload
[13:03] <cfhowlett> alief, then use the indonesia channels
[13:03] <cfhowlett> !indonesian > alief
[13:05] <alief> ok,im login chanel ubuntu_id..
[13:12] <xStark> How do I use command prompt as root
[13:12] <nic_> .xchat2/budus.so
[13:12] <xStark> I mean
[13:13] <xStark> How do I use terminal as root
[13:13] <k1l_> xStark: do you really need that? most users just need it for one or two commands, then you can use sudo
[13:13] <k1l_> !sudo | xStark
[13:13] <xStark> yeah I need it to remove some files
[13:13] <xStark> unwanted files of a program that I dont use anymore
[13:14] <xStark> I need it for just one or two commands though, k1l_
[13:14] <PhC-PhD> Hello dears, my menu bar keeps being over all my windows. Hence I can't see the tabs in my browser when full screen
[13:14] <PhC-PhD> i've looked it up but can't find anything
[13:16] <xStark> k1l_: I need to run "apt-get autoremove" and it's not working
[13:16] <k1l_> xStark: "sudo apt-get autoremove"
[13:17] <xStark> Oh, ok
[13:17] <k1l_> xStark: apt-get commands need to be prefaced with sudo to get root permissions
[13:17] <k1l_> see the bots message and link to root and sudo
[13:17] <xStark> Alright
[13:18] <xStark> sudo apt-get autoremove" removes temp files or something, right
[13:19] <cfhowlett> false.
[13:19] <Mahjongg> Pici, apticron is really good
[13:19] <john_doe_jr1> What are the advantageous and/or disadvantages of creating a cronjob that uses the screen command?
[13:19] <xStark> cfhowlett: Well what does it do then xD
[13:19] <Pici> Mahjongg: nice
[13:20] <xStark> xStark: It just told me that running that command will remove unused packages lol
[13:20] <pbx> john_doe_jr1, i don't see any advantage so i think you need to detail your use case
[13:20] <xStark> did I just..
[13:20] <xStark> oh god..
[13:20] <xStark> cfhowlett: It just told me that running that command will remove unused packages lol
[13:20] <cfhowlett>  xStark exactly
[13:21] <xStark> for once I was right
[13:22] <john_doe_jr1> pbx: well, I'm using rsync to sync some extremely large file servers…like Terabytes of data on each and I would like the rsync server to work overtime to sync those servers….does rsync use a lock file or something to deal with multiple processes?
[13:31] <PhC-PhD> Hello dears, my menu bar keeps being over all my windows. Hence I can't see the tabs in my browser when full screen
[13:31] <PhC-PhD> Oops, sorry for double posting
[13:32] <mkanyicy> :q
[13:32] <k1l_> PhC-PhD: can you make a screenshot and show it on imgur?
[13:33] <k1l_> PhC-PhD: right now it sounds like that works as expected
[13:35] <Guest760> I have just installed ubuntu. I do "ip -6 route add ipv6_addr/subnet via ipv6. I get "RTNETLINK answers: invalid argument" I use the exactly how http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Linux+IPv6-HOWTO/x1083.html says
[13:35] <Guest760> do I need to enable ipv6 forwarding somewhere?
[13:35] <Guest760> I checked /proc/sys/net/ipv6 but don't see anything related

[13:39] <frenda> Supporting in LTS: 3 years for Desktop, 5 years for servers --> is this true?
[13:39] <lotuspsychje> !lts | frenda
[13:40] <Pici> frenda: tl;dr: 5 years for all LTSes now.
[13:40] <cfhowlett> Pici, not quite true.  still only 3 years for xubuntu/ubuntustudio
[13:41] <Pici> cfhowlett: right
[13:42] <PhC-PhD> @k1l_ here: http://postimg.org/image/fni4pbxur/ You can see that my tabs are half covered. If I maximize the window (not full screen) they are completely covered
[13:42] <frenda> Ah, ok

[13:47] <_Darril_> thanks, bye.
[13:49] <k1l_> PhC-PhD: to me it looks like you did shove that window too high
[13:50] <PhC-PhD> k1l_ It does that automatically when I maximize it. Not just fro browser, but for every window. Just like the menu wasn't an upper boundary.
[13:50] <PhC-PhD> @k1l_ It does that automatically when I maximize it. Not just fro browser, but for every window. Just like the menu wasn't an upper boundary.
[13:50] <k1l_> PhC-PhD: is that unity?
[13:52] <ShalokShalom> hi there
[13:52] <ShalokShalom> is there any ppa manager besides Y PPA ?
[13:53] <k1l_> PhC-PhD: in the settings of chrome/chromium you can try to check "use the titilebar and theme from the system"
[13:53] <ShalokShalom> maybe with qarma/qt in general ?
[13:53] <PhC-PhD> k1l_: I think it is unity yes.
[13:53] <PhC-PhD> Alright, i'll look that up!
[13:54] <Guest40827> hello
[13:54] <ShalokShalom> hi
[13:54] <ShalokShalom> is there any ppa manager besides Y PPA ?
[13:55] <PhC-PhD> k1l_: same problem. Again, it's not just chrome. Any window, be it libre office, pdf, etc, the top is hidden. Even my terminal
[13:56] <k1l_> PhC-PhD: try the standard theme.
[13:56] <k1l_> PhC-PhD: how are you getting that window to be placed like this?
[13:58] <hodesb> Hello, I'm trying to install Ubuntu as a replacement of windows 8.1. My notebook is a dell with Intel Smart Response, I think it uses RAID0, All the partitions was created by windows, On instalation NO partitions are shown.
[13:59] <lotuspsychje> hodesb: did you disable secureboot and fastboot?
[14:02] <hodesb> I haven't disabled fast boot, lotuspsychje. Only tried to change Serial ATA type
[14:02] <hodesb> I mean, disabled the Smart Response
[14:02] <lotuspsychje> hodesb: fastboot and secureboot must be off to install ubuntu single
[14:03] <hodesb> Ok, I will try that, and back here to feedback =)
[14:03] <lotuspsychje> hodesb: is it ssd or mechanical hd?
[14:03] <hodesb> lotuspsychje: Its a Hybrid SSD 32GB for cache
[14:04] <lotuspsychje> hodesb: then default might be already on AHCI
[14:04] <lotuspsychje> doublecheck anyways and welcome to ubuntu experience!
[14:05] <hodesb> lotuspsychje: Intead of AHCI it's with Intel Smart Response
[14:05] <hodesb> instead *
[14:05] <lotuspsychje> ok
[14:06] <hodesb> I will try changing to, Secure Off, Fast Boot Off, and AHCI
[14:08] <PhC-PhD> K1l_: Here's when I maximize (not full screen): http://postimg.org/image/x26kkyfbz/ . As you can see, I can't see the tabs.

[14:20] <MoPac> Hello. I'm wondering if there is any standard way to make changes in Ambiance gtk2 and gtk3 settings that persist across updates. I find the default scrollbar settings totally unusble, but I wish I didn't have to manually edit the rc / css files every time the package updates, which constantly replaces them with defaults, especially around 6-month release times.
[14:20] <A124> Not 9 months or... how long has the standard ubuntu.
[14:21] <samba35> how do i reinstall package

[14:24] <genii> samba35: That means some other thing is already running which is trying to do updates or install things
[14:25] <ioria> stemid,  you can check  /var/log/upstart/<service>.log

[14:33] <alsauser_> Can anyone help me getting audio working with Geforce 8400 with driver version 340.93 over HDMI for ubuntu 15.04?
[14:33] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: tryed other drivers?
[14:33] <alsauser_> Yes. 340.7X
[14:33] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: same issue?
[14:34] <alsauser_> And also in 14.04 it worked with the driver from the repo
[14:34] <alsauser_> Yes it had the same issue for 15.04
[14:34] <alsauser_> Updated all software to tryto fix iayb, but it also did not help
[14:34] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: anything usefull in syslog/dmesg logs?
[14:35] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: any reason you not staying on 14.04 if it worked?
[14:36] <alsauser_> In dmesg i do see HDA nvidia in dmesg
[14:36] <ioria> stemid,  sometime  that is caused by wrong use of the expect fork... yes
[14:36] <alsauser_> I updated because of new software versions
[14:37] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: what is it saying exactly
[14:38] <alsauser_>  dmesg | grep nvidia [   11.132737] nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel. [   11.154196] nvidia: module verification failed: signature and/or  required key missing - tainting kernel [   11.168894] [drm] Initialized nvidia-drm 0.0.0 20150116 for 0000:02:00.0 on minor 0

[14:38] <jdxin0> whois neunon
[14:38] <alsauser_> So i think this should be pkay, but i am not an expert on linux systems.
[14:40] <alsauser_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12638672/
[14:40] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: could try a tail -f /var/log/dmesg in realtime also and fool around with sound
[14:40] <alsauser_> My apologies lotuspsychje
[14:42] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: did 14.04 work with this same driver?
[14:43] <alsauser_> I have not checked the version before i installed 15.04 unfortunatly
[14:43] <alsauser_> But it is the same from the standard ubuntu repo.
[14:44] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: if you tryed all drivers from your additional drivers list, and none work your sound you might wanna file a bug, or find an existing
[14:44] <alsauser_> Okay. I till try, because the other drivers make my system unusable.
[14:44] <alsauser_> Thank you for the help.
[14:44] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: howso?
[14:44] <alsauser_> It wont boot into a GUI
[14:45] <alsauser_> Just command line with error or it repeats a loop process which it doesn't seem to get out of
[14:45] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: did you install 15.04 with cable inetrnet + updates during setup?
[14:45] <alsauser_> Yes. I have just updated 30 minutes ago
[14:46] <alsauser_> I wiljust install 14.04 i think and leave 15.05 for now. Thank you for al help
[14:46] <lotuspsychje> alsauser_: nice choice

[15:00] <whytrytofly> hello
[15:00] <Guest8291> hello
[15:00] <whytrytofly> did anyone succesfully install epson-printer-utilities
[15:00] <whytrytofly> i cant find them!
[15:01] <Guest8291> what you mean you can't find them
[15:05] <MikeRL> I read something saying that MS wants to buy Ubuntu. I hope that isn't true at all.
[15:06] <MikeRL> I will run for the hills.
[15:07] <khax> hah
[15:07] <khax> hope not
[15:07] <MikeRL> Wouldn't that destroy the whole community aspect?
[15:08] <MikeRL> Then we'd see closed creep, and maybe some backdoors.
[15:08] <[n0mad]> what? MS loves you and embraces you
[15:08] <MikeRL> I still remember the past. Cannot trust them.
[15:09] <MikeRL> They went off calling Linux a communist plot a few years back.
[15:09] <[n0mad]> putin makes linux
[15:09] <MikeRL> I'd rather have it be made by Putin than Microsoft.
[15:10] <[n0mad]> see, the communist plot is working
[15:10] <MikeRL> Are the rumors that MS will take over true?
[15:10] <Badger007> hello
[15:11] <MikeRL> I use Linux as an alternative to whatever Microsoft makes. I'll find a new distro if they muck things up.
[15:12] <Badger007> i have a dell poweredge sc1420 at the moment 1 znon cpu 16 gigs mem and a sortment  hard drives problem ubuntu install but runs very slow is it because of the pci ati rage video card or what else
[15:13] <[n0mad]> MikeRL: i guess that depends on how reliable the 1 site is that is stating this
[15:13] <MikeRL> What is that site?
[15:13] <MikeRL> I saw it on techaeris.
[15:14] <[n0mad]> yep, that's the only place i find it
[15:14] <MikeRL> Do you guys think it will happen?
[15:15] <[n0mad]> unless they have some special privilege friends that others don't, i would find it hard to believe but anything is possible
[15:15] <MikeRL> I will freak out if it does.
[15:15] <blackangelpr> Badger007,  had installer x86 or x64  wgat versuib if ubuntu what type is your hdd what is your processor ?
[15:15] <blackangelpr> what version of ubuntu :p sorry s
[15:16] <Badger007> x64 ubuntu 14.04 lts and intel xnon 3.2 1 mg cache 800mzh frount side bus
[15:16] <MikeRL> Wait. I read something up on Reddit saying someone is based off a Reddit comment.
[15:16] <MikeRL> Maybe someone was either misunderstood or trolling.
[15:17] <khax> probably trolling :D
[15:17] <MikeRL> There are a ton of hard-core people that use Arch or Debian and they honestly tend to bash Ubuntu. Sometimes I agree with them, other times I don't.
[15:17] <MikeRL> Or they use Gentoo.
[15:17] <Badger007> the hard drive one 73 gig scsi 1 320 wd sata and 1 seagate 1tb
[15:18] <MikeRL> Because I should be forced to compile half my shit. I'm too lazy.
[15:18] <MikeRL> http://techaeris.com/2015/10/01/sources-claim-microsoft-is-buying-canonical-ubuntu-is-there-logic-behind-the-rumors/
[15:19] <MikeRL> It has already initiated a response.
[15:19] <MikeRL> Well, one that will appear soon enough. I think it's trolling, though.
[15:20] <Badger007> gee i hope ms is not doing that ugg
[15:20] <MikeRL> Someone could fork everything then.
[15:20] <jpds> !ot | MikeRL
[15:21] <MikeRL> Well, I guess this is off-topic. But it made me freak out.
[15:21] <MikeRL> Probably was a troll article based off bad sources. If anything, they're likely partnering along some lines.
[15:22] <MikeRL> I give it less than a 10% chance of being true. Thanks for the feedback. I just think it was trolling to cause damage around here.
[15:22] <Badger007> i cant find an x8 pcie video card have to use a pci ati rage for it. i hope that is not a cause
[15:23] <MikeRL> Anyhow, back to normalcy. People here need help.
[15:23] <blackangelpr> Badger007,  i found others that have the same machine in the forums that they took out the scsi card out and plug the hadd directly to the boards also found this http://delldriverdownload.net/poweredge-sc1420-ubuntu-desktop-edition-7-04-drivers/
[15:24] <blackangelpr> Badger007, did you install the propietary softward already?
[15:25] <Badger007> ok the scsi card is an adaptec 3932 pcix just to let you know
[15:25] <whytrytofly> Guest8291: YES cant find them!
[15:25] <Badger007> 39320 card that is
[15:25] <whytrytofly> Guest8291: they are supposed to be on the epson side, according to ubuntuusers.wiki, but they are not or i a stupid
[15:26] <blackangelpr> whytrytofly, i think he want to install something like hp does that shows you the icon ink levels etc but not need it in linux :P
[15:26] <whytrytofly> blackangelpr: what do you mena by that=?
[15:27] <whytrytofly> blackangelpr: not need? i need the level of my onk
[15:27] <whytrytofly> ink
[15:28] <blackangelpr> got it, more like windows ,,, but what i know only hp does have a software for its printer like that on linux http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html  still you can verify on the printer vendor website
[15:28] <ioria> !info escputil
[15:29] <soloslinger> What's best practice if I need a legacy sysvinit script to be ran after an upstart job runs on boot?  Modify the upstart job to call the sysvinit from the upstart or create an upstart script to wrap the old sysvinit script?
[15:29] <Olotila> I installed f-spot from Git, how do I uninstall?

[15:30] <Olotila> how do I undo?

[15:30] <blackangelpr> Badger007 http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man4/ahd.4.html
[15:31] <Olotila> guess it worked, thanks jpds
[15:31] <Olotila> was that all?
[15:31] <jpds> Olotila: If you only cloned it, yes
[15:31] <Olotila> ok thanks
[15:32] <timbozeman> I'm trying to install ubuntu on an SSD drive. I'm putting ubuntu on /dev/sdd4, a new partition. Where should I install the boot loader? The installation fails if I point it to the sdd2 bios grub partition
[15:33] <Guest8291> frenda: do you mean that you can't see the printer on network or something?
[15:39] <Badger007> sorry i locked up for a moment
[15:40] <blackangelpr> Badger007, i wrote this to you before http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man4/ahd.4.html   so if i was you i try plug in the boot drive directly to the board and test the speed
[15:46] <DennisZ> Hey guys, is the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 supported on Ubuntu 15.04? The Intel site claims it has support but "most features aren't available on Linux", are there any details on those things?
[15:47] <aziz> ciao
[15:47] <DennisZ> See also: http://www.intel.nl/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/product-briefs/dual-band-wireless-ac-3160-bluetooth-brief.pdf
[15:49] <blackangelpr> DennisZ, right now ubutnu 15.04 have the kernel 3.19.0-30-generic if it require a later kernel then will not work
[15:50] <Badger007> would the person who posted those links for the poweredge please reposte them i lost them in the reboot i had to do
[15:51] <DennisZ> blackangelpr, this page claims it uses kernel 4.1+ http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/wlan/sb/CS-034398.htm -- so it's not supported at the moment?
[15:52] <blackangelpr> DennisZ, right we need to wait for the next release and see whith what kernel will ship
[15:53] <DennisZ> fair enough
[15:54] <DennisZ> I assume ubuntu 14 doesn't use a newer kernel, right?
[15:54] <Guest8291> Badger007:http://delldriverdownload.net/poweredge-sc1420-ubuntu-desktop-edition-7-04-drivers/  courtesy:blackangelpr
[15:55] <blackangelpr> DennisZ, nope it have a very stable one but not cutting edge
[15:56] <blackangelpr> DennisZ, on october 22 will be out 15.10  but do not know with what kernel
[15:57] <glogic> Is 15.10 the new LTS?
[15:57] <[n0mad]> no
[15:58] <DJones> glogic: No, 16.04 will be the next LTS, every 2 years, 12.04, 14.04,16.04 etc
[15:58] <DennisZ> Uhu, according to some random website I'm able to update the kernel myself without much effort, is this correct?
[15:58] <Pici> !info linux-image-generic wily
[15:58] <Dops> Hey guys.  How do i add myself as an admin?
[15:59] <DennisZ> I'm sadly incapable of grabbing an older wireless card, thus looking to get it to work anyway -- is this a waste and should I just wait it out then? :P
[15:59] <dgarstang> Anything out there better than fabric?
[15:59] <glogic> DJones: Thanks. So if I'm starting with 15.04, I can follow the upgrades to 16.04 to achieve LTS?
[15:59] <Anonaly_> hi,
[15:59] <Guest8291> Dops: can you be specific?
[16:00] <Anonaly_> for some reason all of my devices try and mount to a different folder other than /media.
[16:00] <Anonaly_> I don't know what caused this,
[16:00] <Anonaly_> it may be a nautilus thing
[16:00] <chaotix> hey..  is there an extension or any way to get the "file/edit/etc" menu  bar in GNOME?  It is really one of the only things that keeps me from adopting gnome..  :(
[16:00] <DJones> glogic: Yes, once 15.10 is released you'll be prompted to upgrade to that, and then in 6 months to 16.04, where you'll have the option of waiting for 18.04 or upgrading every 6 months in between
[16:01] <Dops> Guest8291: I'm trying to use qBittorent however i'm getting an I/O Error that sats permission denied
[16:01] <chaotix> It does not matter if it is a global menu style at the top of the screen, or on each window, i just miss the organizational context of the menu, and I think Ubuntu made a great choice in keeping it in unity
[16:01] <Anonaly_> ok it is not a Nautilus thing, I just tried using thunar to mount it and it tells me that the folder already exists so it is not making its own new device location in /media
[16:01] <Anonaly_> it keeps trying to use something else
[16:03] <Dops> Anyone?
[16:04] <glogic> DJones: Thanks.
[16:04] <julian-delphiki> Dops: your permissions are probably wrong on wherever you're downloading to
[16:05] <Dops> How do i fix that?
[16:05] <Dops> New to Linux as a whole
[16:05] <glogic> Dops: What directory are you trying to download to?
[16:06] <Dops> umm
[16:06] <Dops> mnt/sg3/
[16:06] <Dops> it's a 3 TB hard drive I put in for storage
[16:07] <xStark> 3TB wow
[16:07] <xStark> Mine's like 1TB
[16:07] <xStark> barely used 20 GB files
[16:07] <xStark> xD
[16:07] <Dops> how do i fix the permissions?
[16:07] <MonkeyDust> my HD is 250GB
[16:08] <Dops> glogic: Any idea?
[16:09] <glogic> Dops: Do you know how to use the command line, in a terminal?
[16:09] <Dops> Um if i have the commands
[16:10] <glogic> Dops: what's the output of this command? (ignore the $, it just means we're typing it as user and not root) $ ls -al /mnt/sg3
[16:11] <Dops> glogic: total 28
[16:11] <Dops> then
[16:12] <Dops> drwxr xr x 4 root root 4096
[16:12] <glogic> Dops: Ok, let's take a look at this.
[16:12] <Dops> drwxr xr x 3 root root 4096
[16:12] <glogic> Dops: You can stop listing it.
[16:12] <Dops> okay
[16:12] <glogic> Dops: Do you see where it says "root root"? That means the root (administrator) account owns the directory, and it's assigned to the root group.
[16:13] <Dops> Thats what i figured and i don't have access to root
[16:14] <glogic> Dops: You'll need to change the ownership on the directory you're using to download files to. You'll want to look at the commands "sudo" as well as "chown."
[16:14] <julian-delphiki> Dops: not your machine, or what?
[16:14] <Dops> No it's mine
[16:15] <Dops> I built it a few eeks back from scratch
[16:15] <julian-delphiki> Dops: then you have access to root.
[16:15] <glider> Hi. I have a rar file that I want to unrar. How do I do it in ubuntu?
[16:15] <swahili> Hi
[16:15] <Dops> I click it and it denies me
[16:16] <swahili> Q: Any desktop video recorder, that allows me to record in timelapse mode ? Attention it's not webcam recording I want, but desktop. Any tips ? Thank you!
[16:16] <swahili> * I sketch and paint etc
[16:16] <Dops> You do not have permissions necessary to view the contents of root
[16:17] <julian-delphiki> Dops: you likely have to fix it in a terminal using sudo.
[16:17] <MonkeyDust> swahili  byzanz and recordmydesktop come to mind, explore those a bit
[16:18] <Dops> sudo and what else?
[16:18] <akik> Dops: whoami then sudo chown -R username /mnt/sg3
[16:18] <swahili> MonkeyDust: thanks! I'll do, do you think they do timelapse ?
[16:18] <MonkeyDust> swahili  not sure, havent tried them yet
[16:18] <swahili> ok thanks
[16:19] <glider> how do I unrar a file?
[16:19] <glogic> glider: apt-get install unrar; unrar x file
[16:19] <guest-dyRGcw> FF
[16:19] <guest-dyRGcw> Whts up mfgts\
[16:19] <glider> glogic: There are two: unrar and unrar-free. Which one is the right one and why?
[16:19] <guest-dyRGcw> None
[16:19] <guest-dyRGcw> Get WInrar
[16:19] <glogic> glider: The right one is your preference. I use unrar.
[16:20] <guest-dyRGcw> I use 7zip
[16:20] <glider> glogic: Are they different programs?
[16:20] <Kartagis> use rar
[16:20] <fabio> Hello everyone. How do i execute a command after a wifi client connects to my access point?
[16:20] <MonkeyDust> !rar
[16:20] <guest-dyRGcw> NIgger
[16:20] <Kartagis> rar both rars and unrars
[16:20] <MonkeyDust> Guest1320  no such language here
[16:20] <MonkeyDust> meh
[16:22] <glogic> same syntax as well: rar x file
[16:22] <glider> Installed unrar. Works great.
[16:23] <glogic> glider: Might be useful to install all of the popular archiving utilites.
[16:24] <glider> In the XChat program, are notification sounds turned off by default?
[16:25] <HackerII> yes
[16:26] <HackerII> but, hexchat is better
[16:26] <glider> HackerII: What's better about it?
[16:26] <glogic> !better
[16:26] <HackerII> it has more features, xchat is dead
[16:29] <glider> Is Chrome on Ubuntu the same as Chrome on Windows & Mac? Does it function the same or are there any problems with it?
[16:29] <mustmodify_> TIME SENSITIVE -- my ubuntu machine just closed all SSH connections. /var/log/syslog just says "Glib-CRITICAL: Source ID xx was not found when trying to remove it." I can't reconnect, apparently it has dropped of the network. What else can I test while I'm having this issue? I believe it happens intermittently.
[16:29] <auronandace> glider: it is not in the default repos so you'd have to rely on the ppa maintainer
[16:30] <mustmodify_> geez I can't ping, "Destinaiton Host Unreachable"
[16:30] <glider> auronandace: Is it worth it to download it or is firefox good enough for most things?
[16:30] <glogic> glider: Chrome works great on my machine.
[16:30] <auronandace> glider: i like using chromium
[16:30] <mustmodify_> but I can ping localhost, so that's something. :)
[16:31] <akik> glider: firefox is good
[16:32] <akik> glider: they both are so easy to install so why don't you try them yourself?
[16:32] <freawna> please help me , after changing my additional driver settings i got this problem with my lubuntu  http://imgur.com/0k5k6P9 how can i fix , i can"t aceess wifi anymore =
[16:33] <glider> akik: good idea.
[16:35] <freawna> please help
[16:35] <akik> freawna: are you sure you didn't turn off your wireless radio either from a switch or from a key shortcut?
[16:35] <DanTheDan> I have a nginx listening on :80 and another server on :3000, if I telnet localhost 80 I connect to the nginx server just fine
[16:35] <DanTheDan> if I telnet localhost 3000, I connect to the other server just fine
 yes i am sure , i am running dual boot with windows and wifi is fine in windows
[16:36] <DanTheDan> if I telnet ::1 80, talk to nginx just fine
[16:36] <DanTheDan> if I telnet ::1 3000, I get connection refused, what?! I don't even know where to start
[16:36] <DanTheDan> can't be the firewall ofc
[16:37] <akik> freawna: try sudo rfkill unblock all
[16:37] <MonkeyDust> DanTheDan  if you don't get an answer here, try in ##networking
[16:37] <DanTheDan> thanks
 it happened when i set this wifi driver to "use ... " and i can't change it bacjk to do not use , why ???here http://imgur.com/engVuIh
 after i click on apply chenges , it gets back to "use ...
[16:43] <freawna> <akik : can you please tell me why it's doing that ?
[16:43] <Drewery> Quick question : can you stream netflix on ubuntu?
[16:43] <Drewery> or in linux in general
[16:43] <Drewery> ?
[16:43] <debianlv> why not?
[16:43] <cfhowlett> !netflix
[16:44] <Drewery> debianlv: I was exactly wondering why not
[16:44] <Drewery> I mainly use osx for desktop and linux on servers I spin or develop for
[16:44] <akik> freawna: i don't know why your wifi device is not working. did rfkill unblock all help?
[16:44] <Drewery> and never tried netflix on linux desktop so I was wondering if this still an issue
[16:45] <ioria> freawna, did you select  'use bcmwl-kernel-source '  by mistake ?  it was working without it ?
[16:45] <freawna> <ioria ; yes it was working without it , i selected it by mistake
[16:46] <Drewery> So given the link, that's an unofficial solution meaning that you actually can not stream netflix out of the box
[16:46] <Drewery> got it.
[16:46] <MonkeyDust> Drewery  blame netflix for that
[16:46] <ioria> freawna, so you should apt-get purge  bcmwl-kernel-source  and reboot .....
[16:47] <freawna> ioria> this command "apt-get purge  bcmwl-kernel-source" ?
[16:48] <ioria> freawna, yes
[16:48] <Drewery> MonkeyDust: I don't know the facts. Is it that Netflix politically blocking linux environments or is it a technology environment that prevents it?
 and it will get back to the way it was after rebooting ?
[16:49] <ioria> freawna, i don't know
[16:49] <cfhowlett> more likely little incentive to port to linux, Drewery
[16:49] <blackangelpr> Drewery, if you install chrome you can watch netflix normally
[16:49] <ioria> freawna, i think so...
[16:50] <ioria> freawna, you can always reinstall it with apt-get install  bcmwl-kernel-source and reboot
[16:50] <Drewery> blackangelpr: got it thank you guys for all the input
[16:51] <freawna>  <ioria> i will go switch to ubuntu and try the rfkill commnad and your camand , because am dual booting now
[16:51] <ioria> freawna, ok
[16:54] <Nahledge> is there a tool to create windows 7 usb bootable from ubuntu?
[16:54] <reisio> Nahledge: yup
[16:54] <khax> winUSB

[17:05] <WM-SW> Hello! Can any one tell, which virtual machine is able to best show for example view though it? Can they utilize GPU?
[17:06] <cfhowlett> WM-SW, why not just test the main players?
[17:07] <WM-SW> I'dh hope some one had done that already..
[17:08] <bazhang> try #vbox and #vmware WM-SW
[17:08] <WM-SW> is qemu running under them?
[17:10] <goddard> i got a problem
[17:10] <goddard> when i scroll on my track pad
[17:10] <goddard> sometimes using two fingers it will start the right click
[17:11] <ulooz> Xorg lost evdev & synps inputs => no interaction possible, can still access the laptop from ssh & then switch to term with chvt 1
[17:11] <goddard> so what ever app i am using shows the menu
[17:11] <goddard> how can i just disable the two button right click?
[17:11] <goddard> two finger right click i should say
[17:11] <blackangelpr> goddard, verify settings -> mouse touch pad options
[17:12] <goddard> blackangelpr: it doesn't show me nothing
[17:12] <goddard> blackangelpr: at least options to disable that
[17:12] <goddard> blackangelpr: what should I be looking for?
[17:12] <blackangelpr> tap to click?
[17:13] <goddard> blackangelpr: the tap to click is disables the left mouse click with a single finger but not two finger right click
[17:14] <blackangelpr> correct you can try :)
[17:14] <goddard> blackangelpr: i mostly have the issue in Netbeans ... you think that is an issue and maybe not something else?
[17:14] <blackangelpr> hum.... honestly i use a mouse with my laptop hate touchpads functions :P
[17:14] <ulooz> How can I get evdev back ?
[17:15] <goddard> blackangelpr: i have a razer blade 2015 so the touchpad is super nice
[17:19] <blackangelpr> ulooz, https://pypi.python.org/pypi/evdev  ???
[17:19] <didoking> Should i put my swap partition on my ssd or onto my hdd?
[17:19] <teward> didoking: i wouldn't put it on your SSD, IMO, but you may not need swap (unless you intend to be using hibernate or such)
[17:20] <ulooz> blackangelpr: evdev is then common xorg input driver
[17:20] <didoking> teward: Ok, then I will put it onto the HDD (because SSDs have only a limited quantity of writes before they die)

[17:24] <glitsj16> goddard: have you tried playing with synclient settings to disable what you need, or to adjust sensitivity so the issue doesn't show? --> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch/TouchpadSupport & https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad might have usefull info..

[17:26] <linocisco> hi
[17:26] <linocisco> i have startup problem with ubuntu
[17:26] <linocisco> system program error at everystartup
[17:26] <linocisco> found some files under /var/crash
[17:27] <linocisco> and whenever I have plugged USB device like USB modem, USB device for wireless mouse, system can't get log in screen until it is removed
[17:28] <linocisco> tomaw, what is that?
[17:29] <malvidx> any ideas?
[17:29] <blackangelpr> linocisco, tomaw message its for the whole server users do not worry :p
[17:31] <malvidx> god this is frustrating
[17:33] <MonkeyDust> malvidx  in a terminal, type   alsamixer   if tou see MM, go there and hit m to unmute ... F6 to change the sound card view
[17:33] <blackangelpr> malvidx, did you verify #1 it was the default selection? on the bios the sound its enable XD  and #3 its not muted? i know sounds #$%R but some simple things go overlook by most
[17:33] <malvidx> it is unmuted
[17:34] <ANub> hello guys
[17:34] <malvidx> ive tried all of that
[17:34] <malvidx> ive never had a problem with any other distro and sound
[17:35] <ANub> system is lubuntu running apache and named......with dual nick.....if i bring up the other nick (private IP) the web service go down
[17:35] <ANub> any idea where should i look
[17:35] <blackangelpr> malvidx, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[17:35] <auronandace> malvidx: you on 14.04 or 15.04?
[17:36] <MonkeyDust> malvidx  what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[17:36] <malvidx> Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS \n \l
[17:37] <auronandace> malvidx: if your hardware is rather new you may want to try the newer version or use the enablement stack in the lts to get the latest drivers
[17:37] <malvidx> brb
[17:44] <decci> Any idea how to fix libcrypto.so.10 : unable to open shared library error
[17:44] <decci> I am running Ubuntu 14.04.3. While I run apt-get update it didnt fixed the issue
[17:49] <ulooz> Xorg does not load evdev input drivers anymore, what can I do to force ?
[17:52] <Fahrenhe17> hey guys
[17:52] <glitsj16> decci: running sudo apt-get update only refetches the repo lists, to actually install updates you need sudo apt-get upgrade.. But, are you sure you need libcrypto.so.10? libcrypto is part of the libssl package and for your ubuntu version that is at libcrypto.so.1.0.0..
[17:53] <ANub> system is lubuntu running apache and named......with dual nick.....if i bring up the other nick (private IP) the web service go down ......any idea where should i look..????
[17:54] <Fahrenhe17> can someone help me with problem? im using ubuntu 14.04, have ALPS touchpad and synaptics drivers, and cursor have different speed on X and Y
[17:54] <Fahrenhe17> i googled it, but didnt find anything useful
[17:56] <zerowaitstate> ANub: do you have forwarding enabled? i.e., are you using this box as a router?
[17:56] <reisio> Fahrenhe17: might be worth doing a search for your laptop model plus 'linux' 'touchpad'
[17:57] <reisio> some like real specific configurations
[17:58] <Fahrenhe17> reisio, ty
[17:59] <ANub> @<zerowaitstate> No I'm not
 Its really strange ...I've never observed such an issue before..and amazing thing is that connectivity stays...I mean ping is ok....
[18:00] <ANub> its just that website stops to respond
 i can see that default routes are ok....
 and as soon as I bring down the second interface....web site goes live again
[18:02] <akik> Fahrenhe17: try this https://dottheslash.wordpress.com/2011/11/18/touchpad-sensitivity-differs-with-aspect-ratio/
[18:02] <TJ-> ANub: it's probably replacing the default route
[18:03] <malvidx> ok none of this is working
[18:04] <malvidx> im about to ditch ubuntu
[18:04] <Fahrenhe17> akik, tried it, and seems, that file 50-synaptics.conf do not work
[18:04] <ANub> TJ: I've checked routing stays good
[18:04] <reisio> malvidx: may as well, nobody knows what "this" is
[18:04] <reisio> can't help you with vague things :)
[18:04] <malvidx> reisio - i was in here earlier sorry.
[18:04] <ANub> I mean default routing stays up with the first interface
[18:04] <akik> Fahrenhe17: you can check /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if the settings are loaded
[18:04] <reisio> mmhmmm
[18:04] <malvidx> i cant get sound to work for the life of me
[18:05] <reisio> malvidx: how doesn't it work?
[18:05] <TJ-> ANub: show us "ip route" before and after bringing up the 2nd i/f
[18:05] <malvidx> nothing plays. ive tried everything suggested
[18:05] <reisio> malvidx: through what, speakers?
[18:06] <malvidx> speakers, headphones, nothing.
[18:06] <reisio> what's the audio source?
[18:06] <malvidx> youtube, rythembox, pithos, i get no sound
[18:07] <TJ-> malvidx: have you tried with the ALSA "speaker-test" ?
[18:07] <Fahrenhe17> akik, oh, thanks, wait a min
[18:07] <pendrivo> can anyone recommend me a GUI alternative to unetbootin that will allow me create a bootable usb stick using *any* distro live iso?
[18:07] <ANub> TJ: before [18:07] <malvidx> TJ - yes, nothing
[18:08] <ANub> TJ: After [18:08] <reisio> pendrivo: unetbootin is the best, IME
[18:08] <reisio> pendrivo: but dd is better, if the image is made correctly
[18:08] <linocisco> hi all
[18:08] <reisio> it's just... less safe
[18:08] <pendrivo> dd is not a GUI app
[18:08] <reisio> linocisco: hi
[18:08] <ANub> TJ: After [18:08] <pendrivo> i want persistence
[18:08] <reisio> pendrivo: it can be
[18:08] <TJ-> !paste | ANub
[18:08] <ANub> TJ: After [18:08] <linocisco> i have system program problem at everystartup
[18:08] <malvidx> http://pastebin.com/rf3YLSA2
[18:09] <ANub> TJ: how can we check that bringing up the interface does not mess up the apachectl in some weird way...?
[18:10] <zerowaitstate> ANub: what IP address is Apache bound to?  Is it bound to 0.0.0.0?
[18:10] <ANub> its bound to *
 its bound to *
[18:11] <TJ-> ANub: if you want us to help you need to *pastebin* the complete results of the commands; we can't work from selective info
[18:11] <ANub> TJ: its a production server.....thats why didn't want to put in the IP address in here
[18:12] <malvidx> TJ - did you see anything of use out of my pastebin?
[18:13] <Fahrenhe17> akik, unfortunately, it is loaded, but do not work
[18:13] <Fahrenhe17> :(
[18:14] <fraeeware> i have windows/ubuntu 14,10 dual boot installed and i wan't to reinstall ubuntu from scratch using usb , but i don't know how to partition the disk , i don't wan to loose my data in windows , is there a safer way to install a new fresh ubuntu ( i wan to reinstall ubuntu because i have a networking problem in my current ubuntu )
[18:14] <TJ-> malvidx: I wasn't wanting to see the output, I was asking if you'd used the tool to test the underlying sound drivers. You'd need to couple the speaker-test with the correct devices as reported by "aplay -L" to ensure you're targeting the correct output
[18:14] <akik> Fahrenhe17: experiment with the resolution values and see how they change it
[18:14] <decci> glitsj16: Yes..its asking for libcrypto.so.10
[18:14] <lubarch> 5/
[18:14] <malvidx> ok
[18:14] <Fahrenhe17> akik, well, ty
[18:14] <Fahrenhe17> akik, will try
[18:15] <decci> glitsj16: While I see that libcrypto.so.1.0.0 is already there under /lib/x86..gnu/ and also under /usr/lib/x86..gnu/
[18:16] <Fahrenhe17> (gedit:8378): Gtk-WARNING **: Calling Inhibit failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files
[18:16] <Fahrenhe17> what is it?
[18:16] <akik> Fahrenhe17: you need to restart your xorg or your login manager to take them into use
[18:16] <glitsj16> Fahrenhe17: have you tried with synclient yet? the command 'synclient ResolutionDetect=0' would disable scaling between your touchpad dimensions and your screen dimensions (X) ..
[18:16] <TJ-> decci: didn't we go over this a few days ago? You're using some RedHat-targeted Dell tooling that expects a RedHat system that uses a different SO ABI version naming system
[18:17] <fraeeware> ???
[18:17] <decci> TJ-: Thats solved
[18:18] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, no, i didnt, ty, i will try
[18:18] <decci> TJ-: I am getting this error while I removed few of ssl related packages
[18:18] <decci> TJ-: Wondering if I need to build it from source
[18:19] <TJ-> decci: what is the complete error (I must have missed it) and what process is causing it?
[18:19] <akik> fraeeware: i'd say it's pretty safe to reinstall ubuntu as you've done it yourself once already
[18:20] <akik> fraeeware: what's your partitioning problem?
 i forgot how i have done it , can you give a tutorial refresh my memory
[18:20] <brainwave> Hey guys, I am dual booting ubuntu on a macbook air, 2013.
[18:20] <fraeeware> akik> i need to format the old ubuntu and install a new one
[18:20] <TJ-> !install | fraeeware
[18:20] <auronandace> !partitioning | fraeeware
[18:20] <akik> fraeeware: usually you need to have a linux partition (ext3/4) and a swap partition
[18:21] <akik> fraeeware: the installation takes care of initializing the linux partition
[18:22] <akik> fraeeware: you need to be careful not to destroy your windows installation though
[18:22] <brainwave> I have installed ubuntu on an external drive, and am able to boot it from my macbook air 2013, using refind. The issue is that I have to go to refind installed on my laptop EFI partition, go into the ‘grub’ entry that shows, get dropped onto a shell, and then use the ‘reboot’ command
[18:22] <jhutchins_wk> fraeeware: Why not just upgrade?
[18:22] <brainwave> before a new refind menu pops up with my ubuntu entry
[18:23] <brainwave> Any idea why this behaviour is happening?
[18:23] <fraeeware>  <jhutchins_wk> would upgrading fix the networking problem i have now in my ubuntu ??
[18:23] <gravida> hello guys anyone here to help?
[18:23] <brainwave> It’s pretty hard to explain in short, so if someone is interested I can give additional, organized details.
[18:24] <gravida> iam experiencing random wifi drops on 1.04
[18:24] <gravida> i googled it a bit but all the answers were for old versions.
[18:25] <gravida> 15.04*
[18:25] <fraeeware> jhutchins_wk: and can i upgrade manully without internet access , if i have the packeges needed
[18:25] <auronandace> gravida: wifi chipset?
[18:25] <Patric_k> hello, I want a reg code.
[18:26] <fraeeware> jhutchins_wk ; ?
[18:26] <gravida> RT5390 [802.11 b/g/n 1T1R G-band PCI Express Single Chip] auronandace
[18:26] <Fahrenhe17> akik, it just dont work, i have [  2124.860] (**) Option "HorizResolution" "10"
[18:26] <Fahrenhe17> [  2124.860] (**) Option "VertResolution" "30"
[18:26] <DJones> Patric_k: Ubuntu doesn't have one
[18:26] <bazhang> for what Patric_k
[18:26] <Fahrenhe17> but it is no difference
[18:26] <MonkeyDust> what's a reg code?
[18:27] <bazhang> fraeeware, a full version upgrade with no internt?
[18:27] <auronandace> gravida: does this happen only on a certain ssid or any one you connect to?
[18:27] <brainwave> I am facing an issue where refind is not working as expected, for ubuntu installed on an external drive.
[18:27] <gravida> auronandace, any ssid
  not possible ?
[18:27] <bazhang> fraeeware, whta version to what
[18:27] <glitsj16> Fahrenhe17: can you pastebin the output of 'synclient -l' please? I'm not sure you can change Vert/HorizResolution via synclient, but it might..
[18:27] <akik> Fahrenhe17: you could try the ResolutionDetect=0 that glitsj16 mentioned
[18:28] <fraeeware> @bazhang iam now 14.10
[18:28] <bazhang> fraeeware, no internet means full reinstall then
[18:29] <bazhang> get the 16.04 at months end fraeeware
[18:29] <bazhang> aug 15.10
[18:30] <gravida> auronandace, pretty much the same with this issue http://askubuntu.com/questions/453156/wifi-connection-periodically-dropping-in-centrino-wireless-n-1030?rq=1
[18:30] <brainwave> Where can I get my nick registered? Is there some channel for that?
[18:30] <auronandace> gravida: i don't see a solution here but it seems to be affecting others too: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2228486
[18:30] <Patric_k> for community stuff
[18:30] <akik> bazhang: are you saying he should wait a month to reinstall his os? :)
[18:30] <gravida> auronandace, should i try the solutions for older versions of ubuntu
[18:31] <auronandace> gravida: you could try looking in launchpad to see if anyone has file a bug and if there is a workaround
 I would just reinstall 14.10
[18:31] <bazhang> akik his current is eol, eolupgrades require internet, he does not have that
[18:31] <bazhang> fraeeware, thats eol so no dont
[18:31] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, in a dialog i did
[18:31] <fraeeware> what is eol ?
[18:32] <bazhang> end of life
[18:32] <auronandace> fraeeware: end of life, no longer supported
[18:32] <bazhang> not supported
[18:32] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, akik, ty guys a lot for trying to help me
[18:32] <akik> fraeeware: you have an installation media, right?
[18:32] <gravida> auronandace, it has to be related to a new version of kernel or wifi drivers. because 14.04 was absolutely problem-free for me
[18:32] <rttj> brainwave: I didn't see anybody answer your question, so: https://freenode.net/faq.shtml
 yes a usb flash
[18:33] <glitsj16> Fahrenhe17: okay, so did you notice any improvement after running the 'synclient ResolutionDetect=0' command?
[18:33] <akik> fraeeware: you didn't mention whether your networking ever worked or if it is just a configuration problem
[18:33] <auronandace> gravida: sorry i'm not of much help
[18:33] <gravida> auronandace, many thanks anyway
  it didnt work i tried your commands rfkill  unblovk all and apt§get purge , still the same problem wifi disabled by switch
 yes it is a configuration problem but am not sure how to fix it
[18:35] <akik> fraeeware: oh it's that case. you said that your networking worked before you installed the other driver
[18:35] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, well, i did not :(
[18:35] <akik> fraeeware: so if you reinstall (easiest choice) your networking probably will start working again
[18:36] <fraeeware> <akik: yes and the apt-get purge gave me " couldnet locate the ....
[18:36] <lubarch> can somebody help me with obd related work?
[18:36] <lubarch> obd2

[18:36] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, will try to do something with 50-synaptics.conf
[18:36] <fraeeware> <akik: yes thats it
[18:37] <Patric_k> can i get a reg code for this ? http://community.linuxmint.com/auth/register
[18:37] <glitsj16> Fahrenhe17: the link akik provided earlier still has good info imo, you might have to put those Vert/HorizResolution options in a regular /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, as the original dates back to 2011 and X has changed alot since then..
[18:37] <wileee> lubarch, state the issue for help, all in one post, careful with enter as punctuation if you can.
[18:39] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, how can i see this file? /etc/X11/xorg.conf, i have not is
[18:39] <TJ-> gravida: what disconnect reasons does wpa_supplicant/Network Manager report in syslog?
[18:39] <Fahrenhe17> it*
[18:39] <bazhang> Patric_k, thats mintsupport
[18:39] <gravida> TJ-, how can i check them?
[18:39] <bazhang> ask them Patric_k NOT Here
[18:39] <Patric_k> so where do i get it from?
[18:39] <bazhang> !mintsupport | Patric_k
[18:39] <lubarch> wileee: i want to connect the obd2 connector(on board diagnostic) with ubuntu and want to extract the information about my car, help me
[18:40] <TJ-> gravida: look at /var/log/syslog - "pastebinit /var/log/syslog" if you want others too look
[18:40] <akik> glitsj16: he pasted the Xorg.0.log and the options were there
[18:40] <lubarch> wileee: i want to actually log the extracted output after every 5 minutes
[18:40] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, wait man
[18:40] <ed23454> greetings, when I boot kubuntu just immediately after os selection I get "file not found message", "press any key to continue" then it boots up, logo comes up ant all... what could be that file? is there any way to find out?
[18:40] <glitsj16> Fahrenhe17: akik: sorry, mist that paste
[18:40] <wileee> lubarch, I have no idea, I don't even drive I bicycle, here the hardware info rules is all.
[18:40] <akik> glitsj16: well, those two lines
[18:40] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, i still see in log, i sent you, resolution detect = 1
[18:41] <gravida> TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640014/
[18:42] <akik> ed23454: could it be the grub splash image that is missing?
[18:43] <glitsj16> Fahrenhe17: synclient settings are reset on reboot, so that shouldn't be the problem.. and you said that running 'synclient ResolutionDetect=0' didn't improve your situation .. correct?
[18:43] <ed23454> akik no, I get grub, os selection after selecting os screen goes black and I get those messages
[18:44] <ed23454> akik maybe its grup I dont know tbh
[18:44] <ed23454> grub*
[18:44] <TJ-> gravida: line 67 looks to contain a useful clue
[18:44] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, yes.. but i am a bit confused, lemme reboot system and try everything again, i will write you :) ty for everything
[18:44] <akik> ed23454: grub has the kernel and initramfs but you should probably not be able to boot if either is missing
[18:44] <wileee> ed23454, So it does not get to the desktop, and do you remember the message?
[18:44] <gravida> TJ-, yeah, i am googling it now
[18:45] <TJ-> gravida: I'd strongly suspect power management on the chipset is causing it
[18:45] <gravida> TJ-, disabling it should work then?
[18:46] <TJ-> gravida: do "iwconfig" and check what the Power Management setting shows
[18:46] <glitsj16> Fahrenhe17: wait, test that command before rebooting please, it should either improve immediately or not, so we can rule that one out and look into setting Vert/HorizResolution options again
[18:46] <gravida> TJ-, it is on
[18:46] <ed23454> wileee kubuntu logo used to come up, after that nothing, trying to log into tty and startx would produce same kubuntu logo and nothing after that, I went to recovery selected previous ubuntu version then it booted, now it boots by default but I get those messages I wanna find out whats wrong
[18:46] <TJ-> gravida: If it is the cause; trial and error process of elimination with these kind of issues
[18:46] <TJ-> gravida: "sudo iwconfig <interface name> power off" and see how you go
[18:47] <roller> hi
[18:47] <roller> can anyone please join french (the channel) and ask what did i do?
[18:47] <gravida> TJ-, this guy tried and it didnt work for him apperantly http://askubuntu.com/questions/483445/wireless-dropping-out-using-intel-7260ac-card-deauthenticated-reason-7
[18:47] <gravida> TJ-, but i will try it myself anyway
[18:47] <TJ-> gravida: You have a Realtek card, not Intel
[18:47] <wileee> ed23454, startx is not correct, what has led to this a graphic driver addition, an update, can you tell?
[18:47] <gravida> TJ-, ah sorry
[18:47] <TJ-> gravida: try it; if it improves things you've easily fixed it and can the make the setting permanent via a system script.
[18:48] <TJ-> gravida: to make it permanent this forums comment gives excellent instructions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2287034&p=13360362#post13360362
[18:48] <ed23454> wileee I dont know I used to startx to start my backtrack long ago, so I used it this time aswell, I tried sudo service kdm stop/start that produced no result
[18:49] <wileee> ed23454, is a previous edition just another kernel in grub or a whole install?
[18:49] <gravida> TJ-, thank you, i hope it works
[18:49] <TJ-> gravida: after disabling PM use iwconfig to check the setting did actually change :)
[18:49] <imatech> anyone know how to use shred?
[18:50] <TJ-> imatech: "man shred"
[18:50] <ed23454> wileee its just previous version in grub ubuntu recovery (there are about 20 older versions)
[18:50] <gravida> TJ-, seems like changed :)
[18:50] <TJ-> gravida: fingers crossed then :)
[18:50] <imatech> I'm trying to get it to shred a raid0 logical drive and don't know how to target the drives
[18:51] <gravida> good night everyone!
[18:51] <wileee> ed23454, Ah, so log in with the kernel that works and come back from a working ubuntu and work on this, much easier to find issues and fix with help, or a live boot.
[18:51] <ed23454> wileee so it works now, however I still get message file not found, press any key to continue, I just what to find out whats wrong
[18:51] <TJ-> imatech: the target FILE would be a device name, e.g. "sudo shred /dev/mapper/XXXX" or "sudo shred /dev/mdX" maybe?
[18:52] <wileee> ed23454, Have you moved or added partitions?
[18:52] <ed23454> no
[18:52] <imatech> what's the command to figure out what device?
[18:53] <ed23454> wileee no, I suspected it could be nvidia driver so I switched to older one, but done nothing else
[18:53] <wileee> ed23454, Without the message I'm not sure where to go is all, you can text boot and see more.
[18:54] <ed23454> wileee is there any way to see the log file? I tried var/log.txt but its quite complicated
[18:54] <wileee> ed23454, dmesg in the terminal will give you a huge file to look at,
[18:54] <ed23454> wileee yeah but I have no clue what to look for
[18:55] <wileee> ed23454, Heh, me either, this is out of my area of any good help beyond this.
[18:55] <ed23454> wileee https://paste.kde.org/pj7pukrdg
[18:55] <ed23454> wileee I see well thanks anyway
[18:55] <brainwave> Is it true that ubuntu never upgrades the kernel?
[18:55] <wileee> no
[18:55] <bazhang> brainwave, no
[18:55] <Fahrenhe17> glitsj16, resolution detect is =1 again, nothing changes with anything
[18:55] <brainwave> What is the difference between 12.04 and 12.04.3?
[18:56] <wileee> brainwave, longterm releases have release points.
[18:56] <TJ-> ed23454: at waht point is the message appearing? It sounds as if it may come from GRUB - you can tell by the timing... GRUB writes "Loading Linux..." .. "Loading initial ramdisk..." .. do you see the message within a second or so of those, or much later?
[18:58] <brainwave> I installed ubuntu on an external drive, for booting using on my mac. I wanted to be able to boot this ubuntu using the refind already installed on my apple EFI. The issue is, there is only a grub_x64.efi on my macbook air EFI, and this drops me on a prompt after booting.
[18:58] <ed23454> TJ- those messages I only got when booted through recovery, usually I dont see them, "file not found" appears immediately after I select ubuntu os
[18:58] <wileee> brainwave, probably more helpful, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS
[18:58] <brainwave> What does happen is though, that on this grub prompt if i use ‘reboot’, my computer restarts and then the actual ubuntu efi entry shows up in the menu. I am able to boot into ubuntu from there.
[18:59] <brainwave> Any idea how I can resolve this, and make a single EFI entry for ubuntu show up in my refind? I have enabled scan_all_linux_kernels in refind.
[18:59] <TJ-> ed23454: OK... at start-up hold down the Shift key so you get the GRUB boot menu. Highlight the Ubuntu entry, press 'E' to edit it. Navigate to the line beginning "linux ..." and delete "quiet splash" then press Ctrl+X to boot the modified entry. That should help you identify more accurately when the message originates.
[19:00] <wileee> brainwave, Why not dualboot, an external is never the same
[19:00] <TJ-> ed23454: I'm suspecting there's an entry in the grub.cfg "insmod XXXX" where XXXX is missing
[19:01] <brainwave> wileee: Several reasons for that. Linux is no longer my main OS, it is more for things I cant do on OS X. I also wish to carry it around like a mobile OS, and use it on several computers.
[19:01] <ed23454> TJ- ok I am going to try that now
[19:02] <wileee> brainwave, Not sure refind is a support issue here is all, even in this context is all.
[19:03] <wileee> probably will get help, how soon hard to say is only my point.
[19:04] <brainwave> wileee: See the chain of events is what is vexing. 1. Boot ->refind menu screen - I get only mac os x, and grub_x64.efi entry. 2. Select grub_x64 -I get dropped onto a prompt. 3. Reboot. 4. Refind screen no 2 - 3 entries, for os x, grub AND UBUNTU! 5. boot ubuntu without issues.
[19:04] <TJ-> brainwave: At what point to you plug in the external drive when you want to boot it? After power-on of the PC, or before?
[19:04] <TJ-> brainwave: sounds to me like you're plugging it in *after* the Mac's EFI boot-device search sequence is already over
[19:07] <ed23454> TJ- so I have done, shift at boot, the first message I got was "loading grub", "file not found", it still loaded and booted up, but it seems there is a problem with grub
[19:09] <TJ-> ed23454: Well, that's good progress indeed. Although you don't mention seeing "Loading initial ramdisk..." I cannot imagine the kernel would successfully boot without one, but lets double-check that assumption. Can you do "pastebinit <( ls -altr /boot/ ; cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg )"
[19:09] <akik> ed23454: how about if you run update-grub, do you get errors for missing files?
[19:09] <akik> sorry tj-
[19:10] <brainwave> TJ-: Say I plug in a pendrive after booting to refind.  A simple escape refreshes it and shows up the entry. This doesnt happen
[19:11] <mthepredador> hello
[19:12] <ed23454> TJ- http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640191/
[19:13] <TJ-> ed23454: I think the call to the pastebinit command didn't work correctly - everything is on one line :D
[19:13] <TJ-> ed23454: did you use the command exactly as I gave it?
[19:14] <majikman> i'm trying to install a specific version of Puppet with the command apt-get install puppet=3.6.0-1puppetlabs1 but it doesn't work. it just acts like it's going to install but never actually does it. it even tells me that puppet will be installed but it never does.
[19:14] <majikman> can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong?
[19:16] <ed23454> TJ- https://paste.kde.org/ph3aui0dv
[19:16] <akik> :)
[19:17] <akik> there is a linefeed epidemic going on
[19:17] <Bashing-om> majikman: What release ? as in 14.04 " Filename: pool/main/p/puppet/puppet_3.4.3-1ubuntu1.1_all.deb " .
[19:17] <ed23454> TJ- http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640224/
[19:18] <majikman> Bashing-om, i'm on 14.04. I'm not sure how to fidn the filename info
[19:18] <TJ-> ed23454: No linefeeds on that again! Are you actually typing the "pastebinit" command? Type *everything* between the double-quotation marks: "pastebinit <( ls -latr /boot/ ; cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg )" - that will give you a URL you can give us
[19:19] <TJ-> akik: I've literally gone dizzy trying to read the output :)
[19:19] <Bashing-om> majikman: Terminal command ' apt-cache show puppet ' . That is the version in the repo. 'apt-cache policy' to show what is installed and what is available presently to the system .
[19:21] <ed23454> TJ- I cant isntall it, here this should work http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640231/
[19:21] <TJ-> ed23454: That's better, thanks :)
[19:21] <crazyhead42> Hey, my Bamboo tablet was working fine yesterday, but I did an update today and now I'm getting no responce. This is not the first time this has happened - it will probably be fixed in the next update, but I would like to use my tablet today. Any reccomendations?
[19:21] <majikman> Bashing-om, i figured it out. when i install new version of puppet, i have to simultaneously specify puppet-common in the command too
[19:21] <majikman> Bashing-om, thanks for your help anyways
[19:23] <TJ-> ed23454: There's nothing unusual there.
[19:23] <Bashing-om> majikman: :) .. to look at dependencies ( IF and when needed ) ' apt-cache depends <package> ; apt-cache rdepends <package> ' . Apt does a good job generally taking care of dependencies .
[19:24] <majikman> Bashing-om, thanks for the tip
[19:25] <Bashing-om> majikman: If one is interested in learning the sytem, one can do worse than spending the time to learn the package management system .
[19:25] <ed23454> TJ- then I guess it will have to do (atleast until it brakes again) :)
[19:25] <Bashing-om> system*
[19:25] <TJ-> ed23454: let's check there aren't some GRUB modules missing "pastebinit <( ls -latr /boot/grub/i386-pc/ )"
[19:27] <ed23454> TJ- , cant access it says... ls: cannot access /boot/grub/i386-pc/: No such file or directory
[19:27] <ed23454> TJ- there is no such dir
[19:28] <TJ-> ed23454: Really? Is this a UEFI system?
[19:28] <TJ-> ed23454: what does "ls -a /boot/grub/" report?
[19:29] <ed23454> Its bios,  I think its uefi but ita
[19:29] <ed23454> TJ- Its bios,  I think its uefi but its disabled
[19:30] <Bashing-om> TJ-: ^^ I have my learning cap on .
[19:30] <TJ-> ed23454: show us the output from that last 'ls' command please?
[19:30] <akik> ed23454: how about this file font="/usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2" ?
[19:30] <ed23454> TJ- http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640282/
[19:31] <TJ-> Well! that explains it all perfectly!
[19:31] <TJ-> ed23454: did you previously run some manual "grub-install" command line and set the target directory?
[19:32] <ed23454> I dont know, I set up this system long ago for somebody else
[19:32] <TJ-> ed23454: all those .mod files should be in a sub-directory of /boot/grub/, and the directory named after the architecture: i386-pc
[19:32] <ed23454> TJ- I dont know, I set up this system long ago for somebody else
[19:32] <TJ-> ed23454: can you "pastebinit <( sudo lsblk -f )" and we'll fix it
[19:33] <TJ-> ed23454: the upshot is that GRUB is failing to find a module when running the 'insmod' commands
[19:33] <ed23454> TJ- TJ- http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640304/
[19:34] <ed23454> TJ- is this a major problem?
[19:34] <Bashing-om> ed23454: An example of what ls -al /boot/grub/ should resemble >> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640297/ .
[19:35] <TJ-> ed23454: OK, so the boot device is sda. Do "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"
[19:36] <TJ-> ed23454: We'll then check what is there and delete all those stray files in /boot/grub/
[19:37] <ed23454> TJ- is this ok http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640324/
[19:38] <TJ-> ed23454: Hmmm, isn't it nice of GRUB to spot some weird data dumped in its way and working around it!?
[19:38] <TJ-> ed23454: what the heck is FlexNet!?
[19:39] <ed23454> TJ_ there is windows 7 partition on this pc aswell
[19:39] <akik> the flexnet i know is a license management software, but that's weird
[19:39] <TJ-> ed23454: Ahhh, digital restrictions management code, for Windows applications it looks like
[19:39] <imatech> what's the command to figure out what device?
[19:39] <TJ-> ed23454: akik: probably FlexNet tries to 'hide' its data where a format won't delete it
[19:39] <TJ-> ed23454: show us "find /boot/grub -type d" please
[19:39] <akik> god i love descriptive error messages
[19:40] <TJ-> akik: Just what I was thinking; beats the Windows approach of Bulldozing everything :)
[19:40] <ed23454> TJ- http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640340/
[19:41] <TJ-> ed23454: you now have the expected '/boot/grub/i386-pc/'
[19:41] <ed23454> TJ- yes, I am very happy, wat to do next :)
[19:42] <TJ-> ed23454: now let's remove the stray files: "sudo rm /boot/grub/*.{mod,lst,sh}"
[19:42] <TJ-> ed23454: then check what files are left with "ls -altr /boot/grub/"
[19:43] <ed23454> TJ- http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640357/
[19:44] <TJ-> ed23454: Looks perfect :) Try a reboot.
[19:44] <ed23454> ok :)
[19:45] <TJ-> akik: did you look for an existing bug report for the incorrect font path you spotted?
[19:46] <akik> TJ-: no it just was weird to use /usr that got me thinkiing
[19:47] <graamont> who could help me access my router configuration page?
[19:47] <graamont> please
[19:47] <TJ-> akik: it is bug 721545
[19:48] <TJ-> akik: the scripts under /etc/grub.d/ are inserting the OS path, not the GRUB root path
[19:48] <akik> i don't think grub can access /usr at that point?
[19:48] <TJ-> akik: exactly :)
[19:49] <TJ-> akik: the file is copied into GRUB's root (/boot/grub/) but the script path isn't adjusted
[19:49] <TJ-> ed23454: How was that?
[19:49] <ed23454> TJ- yeah, booted without a single error message, TJ many thanks, really helped me out
[19:52] <akik> how many of you are employed by canonical? it's amazing to see this kind of quality support for ubuntu
[19:52] <TJ-> akik: none
[19:55] <ed23454> TJ- you are doing gods work, if you have btc/ltc address I dont mind sending you few $
[19:56] <TJ-> ed23454: thanks, but I'm fine. Contribute back to the community yourself in some way you enjoy
[19:56] <ed23454> TJ- well alright man, take care and thanks again
[19:58] <MiDOZ> Hello, I downloaded Ubuntu 15.04, updated it to the latest updates available, I will give u soon the uname -a output... But I have a problem that I've never faced before, which is that my Realtek wifi adapter suddenly disconnects me from my network and doesn't show any other wifi's (Nearby) it would be as if it's off
[19:58] <MiDOZ> Linux MiDOZ-Ubuntu 3.19.0-30-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 21 20:58:04 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[19:59] <TJ-> MiDOZ: you're the 2nd person this evening reporting the same issue. Can you tell is the exact device entry from "lspci -nn" and also tell us what "iwconfig" reports for the interface Power Management setting
[20:02] <TJ-> MiDOZ: can you also show us "pastebinit <( grep 'deauthenticated from' /var/log/syslog )"
[20:04] <hecatae> MiDOZ: anything from dmesg may help as well
[20:04] <orion> Hi. How do I disable compiz on 15.04?
[20:04]  * TJ- suspects MiDOZ lost the network :)
[20:04] <skrator> Hello EVERYONE!!!
[20:04] <daftykins> orion: mmm what's the goal here? better off with another DE to rid yourself of all the graphical requirements
[20:05] <orion> daftykins: Compiz is using 30% CPU when the VM is idling.
[20:05] <orion> And it's annoying.
[20:05] <MiDOZ> @TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12640505/
[20:05] <daftykins> orion: oh in a VM? do you specifically need to use the unity desktop in this VM?
[20:06] <TJ-> MiDOZ: what about the other info I asked for?
[20:06] <orion> daftykins: Yes. I need firefox and other things.
[20:07] <MiDOZ> @TJ-, one Second, but about the deauth, I don't think Im being deauthenticated by an intruder
[20:07] <daftykins> orion: having firefox bears no relevance to using unity, you could've gone with something lighter like xubuntu - anyway, you might be able to tweak compiz features a bit with their utility
[20:07] <TJ-> MiDOZ: I think though you need "sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off" - the cause is the WiFi chipset going into power-saving mode
[20:07] <daftykins> orion: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[20:08] <hecatae> is there a way to make unity more touch friendly, my laptop has a 10 point touchscreen
[20:08] <andrewjs18> hi all, does ubuntu log reboots anywhere?
[20:08] <MiDOZ> TJ-: I'll see about that, it might be totally true
[20:08] <akik> orion: you might be able to find out some info what is going on with your vm from powertop and its tunables tab
[20:08] <TJ-> MiDOZ: try the system for a while with PM turned off, if that solves it here's an excellent guide on how to make the change permanent http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2287034&p=13360362#post13360362
[20:08] <MiDOZ> TJ-: what exactly do you need me to grep you frm dmesg
[20:08] <daftykins> akik: that doesn't even vaguely apply when compiz is the one hitting the CPU
[20:08] <TJ-> MiDOZ: I didn't want anything from dmesg ....
[20:09] <TJ-> MiDOZ: Can you tell is the exact device entry from "lspci -nn" and also tell us what "iwconfig" reports for the interface Power Management setting
[20:09] <akik> daftykins: it doesn't help at all finding out which part of the system is creating the extra load?
[20:09] <MiDOZ> TJ-: Sure
[20:09] <daftykins> akik: i just told you it was found to be compiz :)
[20:10] <akik> orion's problem is already resolved? what was the fix?
[20:11] <hecatae> MiDOZ:  thankyou for the pastebin
[20:11] <daftykins> akik: no you're not understanding...
[20:13] <Kartagis> how do I force re-install from ppa?
[20:15] <daftykins> Kartagis: can you give a bit more detail? what's your current situation? http://paste.ubuntu.com could be handy
[20:16] <Kartagis> daftykins: I installed my package from ppa. now I need to update it because its one bug was fixed but apt-get --reinstall install says I have the latest version
[20:16] <Bashing-om> Kartagis: Terminal command ' sudo apt-get install --reinstall <package> ' generally should work IF there are no package management problems .
[20:17] <hecatae> TJ-:  looks like MiDOZ is using the wlan iinterface to login, shame
[20:17] <daftykins> Kartagis: you have to have run 'sudo apt-get update' to get the idea that there's a newer version, otherwise purge and reinstall if you didn't increase the version #
[20:41] <Guest64566> i download a few .deb files using sudo apt-get download packagename and i cann't dpkg -i package ... for example when i down load ruby-ldap_0.9.16-1_i386.deb i cann't install it get dependency issues .. what is the point of downloading if you cann't install itt
[20:41] <Guest64566> Or what is the point of the download option of apt-get
[20:42] <wileee> Guest64566, That is a very bad description.
[20:42] <julian-delphiki> Guest64566: if you also have the dependency debs downloaded it works pretty well.
[20:43] <hecatae> Guest64566:  a bad workman blames their tools, what are you downloading using apt-get?
[20:43] <TJ-> Guest64566: You are aware the proper use of apt for package installation is simply "apt install <packagename>" - there is no need to download first
[20:44] <elosz> I am confused between owner of the file and file permission
[20:44] <elosz> if a file is owned by root and has permission 644, does it mean I can read it/open it?
[20:45] <Guest64566> I realize this but i have download basically all the ldap and samba packages in the trusty repo and was wondering  why i cann't install using dpkg -i since the dependences are all in the same directory i would have assumed but maybe there is some outside that i missed
[20:45] <mustmodify_> I'm having a serious problem. I recently installed new RAM in my machine. After initial problems, I updated my BIOS. The machine seems to (a) randomly disconnect from the network and (b) randomly restart and (c) randomly lock up.  I've run memtester for like two days and everything seems fine. Actually, that was the longest the machine has gone without locking up... thought I can't imagine how those would be related. I'm not sure how to troubleshoot or 
[20:47] <Guest64566> Either way if you download a deb file or bunch of them to a local folder to uses when reinstalling the os's why doesn't it work dpkg doesn't clear up package dependency issues or at least smart enough to go out and get the dependencies it is missing or dependencies in the same folder and install those first
[20:47] <TJ-> Guest64566: You can use "dpkg -iR <directory>" to install all packages in a directory
[20:47] <Guest64566> You have to uses the apt tool a layer up
[20:47] <TJ-> Guest64566: or you can use "dpkg -i <package1>.deb <package2>.deb" to ensure dependent packages are installed at the same time
[20:48] <akik> elosz: yes you can read the file as your normal account
[20:48] <TJ-> Guest64566: dpkg is not designed nor intended to deal with repositories, that is apt's job
[20:50] <akik> elosz: the ownership is like ownership of any other thing. with permissions you can give access to the files to other groups
[20:51] <Guest64566> So one cann't make a local repo using the download command
[20:55] <elosz> akik: but what if owner of file is root
[20:56] <elosz> the permissions rwx are applicable to all or owner(root in this case)
[20:56] <imatech> wow, hexchat doesn't have much scroll back space
[20:56] <imatech> what's the command to figure out what device?
[20:57] <imatech> how do I know what device to shred?
[20:57] <akik> elosz: if you have rwx it converts to 7 not 6
[20:58] <akik> elosz: it's the permissions for the owner uid
[20:58] <elosz> akik: i mean if file is owned by root, rwx in file permission means only root can read/write/execute?
[20:59] <akik> elosz: you need to look at all the permissions together
[21:00] <akik> elosz: so you can not say only root can read if the group also has read permission
[21:00] <elosz>  ls -al infile  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Oct  2 16:03 infile
[21:02] <korsakof> ------rwx root root :)
[21:03] <akik> elosz: there are unix file system permission documents all over the net. go read one
[21:04] <freaware> i am about to install ubuntu 15,04 can somene guide me please especially in the partitionning  , first should i check install this third party software ??
[21:04] <daftykins> freaware: are you installing as the only OS, or alongside Windows?
[21:05] <freaware>  <daftykins> alongside windows
[21:05] <daftykins> freaware: in that case, you would have made life a little easier if you resized Windows from inside Windows already, to make space
[21:06] <freaware>  <daftykins> i heve already ubuntu 14.10 installed and i want to format it and install the new one instead
 can you please quide me through this ?
[21:08] <daftykins> freaware: sure, just run the installer and proceed to the partitioning stage - it'll offer to replace 14.10
[21:08] <freaware> should i check install this third party software ?
[21:09] <elosz> okay akik
[21:09] <elosz> 1 question..if I execute a program owned by root, and if that program creates a file, who'll be owner of the file?
[21:09] <elosz> akik: ^
[21:10] <daftykins> freaware: no need nope
[21:10] <akik> elosz: if you execute it as your own user id, normally the file will be owner by your user id but there's exception to it too
[21:10] <Guest64566> ok i am using apt-get again and now when i try to do something it doesn't allow me. I do apt-get check and it says i have umet package dependencies issues uses -f i know -f will work but it will install new packages ... i want to just clear these error not install new dependencies
[21:11] <daftykins> Guest64566: put the output of beginning "apt-get -f install" into http://paste.ubuntu.com
[21:11] <Guest64566> i want to forget about the packages i was dpkg for a second clear apt-get of those issues
[21:11] <freaware> <daftykins : i got a message " unmount partitions that are in use " ?
[21:11] <akik> elosz: there a setuid binaries (+s) which behave differently and are run by the owner of the file
[21:11] <Guest64566> without installing the dependencies for it
[21:11] <akik> elosz: there are
[21:12] <daftykins> Guest64566: so show us.
[21:12] <akik> i'm sleepy :)
[21:12] <SCHAAP137> Guest64566: this is probably a consequence of installing that separate .deb file
[21:12] <freaware> daftykins : should i just chose yes and proceed
[21:12] <daftykins> freaware: if it's offering to unmount them, then sure
[21:13] <elosz> akik: my program doesn't have it set
[21:14] <freaware> daftykins ; am choosing something else in the installation type
[21:14] <hecatae> freaware: If I was you, I would install the LTS version and not need to update for 2 years
[21:14] <daftykins> *4 years
[21:14] <Guest64566> this is what apt-get check says http://pastebin.com/dy0vh3mH
[21:15] <Guest64566> but i changed my mind i don't want to install these with -f how can i clear apt-get of this stuff so i can download other packages
[21:16] <daftykins> that's not what i asked for Guest64566
[21:17] <daftykins> but sure, get rid of samba then? :)
[21:17] <daftykins> that's obviously what's trying to pull in the rest
[21:17] <daftykins> and ruby-ldap too
[21:17] <Guest64566> what do you want me to show you... when i dpkg the ruby package it didn't install or had those dependency issues
[21:18] <daftykins> "when i dpkg" - can you just state in full what you ran?
[21:18] <freaware> daftykins ; anyway  what should i do now ? i am in the partitioning step ?
[21:20] <freaware>  daftykins ; how to replace 14,10 with 15.04 ?
[21:20] <daftykins> freaware: did it offer to replace 14.10, or did you pick 'something else' ?
[21:20] <daftykins> you want the answers but you don't provide the information
[21:21] <freaware> <daftykins ; it didnt offer replacing i clicked somthing else
[21:21] <daftykins> well, that would have worked you know
[21:21] <daftykins> you can probably go back :)
[21:23] <freaware> daftykins : i got back , but it didnt provide the option to replace , i think i need to do it manually
[21:23] <daftykins> right... so go forward again, select the partition that was / and select to format it, making it be / again - now are you keeping any data from your old /home or have you backed up?
[21:24] <freaware> daftykins : i have my data transfered to windows
[21:25] <elhoir> hello guys
[21:25] <elhoir> do u know which is the official Mesa IRC channel?
[21:26] <daftykins> freaware: ok, it'd be handy to see a screenshot of the partitioner window
[21:26] <daftykins> !alis | elhoir
[21:26] <daftykins> elhoir: please don't use #ubuntu as your personal freenode directory :)
[21:27] <freaware> daftykins : how can i take screenshot  ?
[21:27] <daftykins> press the print screen key then upload it to somewhere like imgur.com
[21:28] <elhoir> daftykins, it was just a questio, i didnt know where to find it
[21:28] <daftykins> elhoir: so use alis as instructed above
[21:28] <daftykins> :)
[21:28] <elhoir> i will
[21:28] <elhoir> thanks
[21:30] <hans_henrik> W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/main/source/Sources  Hash Sum mismatch
[21:31] <hans_henrik> repeatedly
[21:31] <elhoir> hans_henrik, i got a script to fix that
[21:31] <freaware> daftykins : http://imgur.com/eqw0HJF
[21:32] <wileee> hans_henrik, Show us the update upgrade in a pastebin
[21:32] <elhoir> i saw it in the virtualbox site
[21:32] <TJ-> hans_henrik: possibly the mirror is in the process of being updated
[21:32] <hans_henrik> its the main server though, not a mirror
[21:32] <elhoir> hans_henrik, ee https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[21:32] <daftykins> freaware: yep so click change, set it to be mount point /, ext4 and enable format.
[21:32] <TJ-> hans_henrik: sometimes the time between the package lists and the hash lists being updated can be several minutes
[21:33] <elhoir> see*
[21:33] <Guest64566> ok i had to remove the samba and ruby package then i did i check and was ok... what i want to know is when i apt-get ruby-interperter i get package is a virtual package provided by ruby2.0 2.0.0.484-1ubuntu2.2
[21:33] <daftykins> freaware: next, make sure it's using /dev/sda6 as swap.
[21:33] <TJ-> hans_henrik: there is still an update from the build servers when packages are published
[21:33] <daftykins> Guest64566: that's not got a question in it?
[21:34] <Guest64566> confusing what the hell is a virtual package but what ever then i tried to apt-get install that package putting it in "" because of the spaces and it still failed
[21:34] <daftykins> Guest64566: virtual or meta packages are ones that refer to a bunch of other packages, making it easier to install things via one package name instead of a whole list.
[21:35] <daftykins> Guest64566: well no valid package has spaces, so that was your first mistake
[21:35] <daftykins> Guest64566: why don't you start from the start, what are you trying to do?
[21:35] <freaware> daftykins : what should i  choose in Use as ?? http://imgur.com/xez04Ej
[21:35] <TJ-> hans_henrik: actually, that's trying to fetch the source-code lists; those are compressed but your error message shows its trying to fetch the non-existent uncompressed version
[21:36] <Guest64566> so why is sudo apt-get install "ruby2.0 2.0.0.484-1ubuntu2.2" basically say's unable to locate package
[21:36] <daftykins> freaware: i already said, ext4, "/" (to be the root filesystem)
[21:36] <daftykins> Guest64566: because that's not a real package name.
[21:36] <daftykins> Guest64566: so can you stop wasting both of our time and say what you are REALLY trying to do?
[21:37] <Guest64566> it gave me that option when i tried to install ruby-interperter
[21:37] <hans_henrik> TJ-: huh, weird
[21:37] <TJ-> hans_henrik: I assume you get that from "apt-get update" ??
[21:37] <daftykins> Guest64566: you're still not telling me what you're trying to achieve, i'm going to give up replying soon.
[21:37] <hans_henrik> TJ-: affirmative
[21:38] <TJ-> hans_henrik: which ubuntu release are you using?
[21:38] <Guest64566> as one of the virtual packages maybe it should just be ruby2 and the 2.0.0.484...etc thing is just indicating something else for the package
[21:38] <Guest64566> i will try that
[21:38] <TJ-> hans_henrik: !!!!! don't answer that I'm dumb :D
[21:38] <TJ-> hans_henrik: Dur 14.04 :)
[21:38]  * hans_henrik is slightly confused
[21:38] <daftykins> Guest64566: well don't guess, check PROPERLY with "apt-cache search ruby"
[21:38] <hans_henrik> ye
[21:38] <freaware> daftykins : like that ? http://imgur.com/C4OVE9o and how to check it's using /dev/sda6 as swap
[21:39] <daftykins> freaware: yes that's fine, check swap by highlighting it and checking its' "use as"
[21:39] <TJ-> hans_henrik: can you pastebin the complete output of an 'apt-get update' run please?
[21:40] <TJ-> Guest64566: if you spent some time reading the manual pages you'd know that to specify a specific version of a package the '=' symbol is used as a suffix to the package-name, followed by the version, with no spaces between them
[21:40] <Guest64566> ya with apt-cache you have only 5 ruby2.0 packages none of which have the 2.0.0.484-1ubuntu2.2 on the end curious what this info is supposed to indicate
[21:41] <hans_henrik> apt-get update 2>&1 | pastebinit
[21:41] <hans_henrik> looks right?
[21:41] <freaware> <daftykins : is it fine ?http://imgur.com/z2DQGEB
[21:41] <TJ-> hans_henrik: or more simply "apt-get update |& pastebinit"
[21:41] <daftykins> freaware: i give you enough information to know, why are you so worried?
[21:42] <hans_henrik> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12641468/
[21:42] <daftykins> freaware: click ok and install now
[21:43] <Guest64566> yes so ever dependency was installed from this for http://pastebin.com/dy0vh3mH the dpkg -i ruby-ldap_0.9.16-1_i386.deb  and the package now installs with no complains
[21:44] <Guest64566> I didn't install the samba just testing for that deb file install with dpkg it works if you get the 4 dependencies for it installed first with apt-getting them
[21:44] <lostinput> Please help, lost keyboard/mouse usage in X, cannot see my devices in xinput list
[21:45] <TJ-> Guest64566: You've been doing this for several days, going against everything the package management is there to do - Why!?
[21:45] <Guest64566> My question is if one downloads all the packages from say the trusty repo into one local directory can he go there with dpkg -i and install any deb file or is dpkg not going to actually clear up dependencies even if they are in the same directory?
[21:45] <lostinput> reinstalled x-x-input-all, tried to force evdev in xorg.conf => no results :(
[21:46] <daftykins> Guest64566: you'd put them in the /var/cache/apt/archives/ folder then they'd work - but the real question is why you're doing this? it makes zero sense and you're just wasting our time until you just _SAY_
[21:46] <TJ-> Guest64566: dpkg does NOT resolve dependencies, that is apt's job
[21:46] <freaware> daftykins ; thanks a lot !! i have a question why ubuntu doesnt detect my ineternal wifi card ? i always need an external adapter
[21:47] <TJ-> freaware: possibly it requires closed-source driver code
[21:47] <MonkeyDust> Guest64566  do you want to make an offline, local repo?
[21:48] <Guest64566> so dpkg is just to install to correct directories and tell apt-get what dependencies it needs to download/install first
[21:48] <Guest64566> not to resolve dependences that is the job of apt-get
[21:48] <Guest64566> ?
 when i tried to add aditional driver  in 14,10 version i messed up my networking i got the message , wifi disabled by hardware switch
[21:50] <TJ-> freaware: that's not an Ubuntu issue; the PC has a hardware control to disable the radio and you must have activated that without realising
[21:50] <Guest64566> dpkg is just a program that reads the structure of the deb file format and checks dependences if all is good it can install the deb to the proper place. But the apt-get is for resolving the dependencies and downloading them from the internet right?
 but  windows detects the internal wifi card ?
 and its dual boot with ubuntu
[21:52] <Guest64566> If so then if one apt-get download the whole trusty repo locally to a file. forgetting dpkg using apt-get could one point apt-get to the local folder and have it install the deb files correctly i.e resolve these issues?
[21:52] <daftykins> freaware: no point doing anything about that until you boot into the fresh install.
[21:52] <TJ-> Guest64566: see "man 5 deb" and "man 5 deb-control"
[21:52] <Guest64566> That i had with dpkg on a local folder that had all the dependencies
[21:52] <MonkeyDust> Guest64566  better create a thread on a forum
[21:53] <daftykins> Guest64566: essentially you just need to learn how to use package management properly and not come up with these convoluted schemes.
[21:53] <TJ-> freaware: Ahhh, OK, you have a buggy BIOS/firmware ACPI DSDT then, which detects Linux and doesn't enable all the functions it enables for Windows
[21:53] <TJ-> freaware: there are some workarounds that usually solve that
[21:54] <Guest64566> just hell to know which ones go first based on the seemingly never ending dependency change that by hand would take to long to clear up with dpkg could you uses apt-get on the local folder to resolve and install the local .deb files with out the dependency issues
[21:54] <daftykins> Guest64566: you're just trying to install the wrong things is all.
[21:54] <daftykins> works fine for everyone else :)
[21:55] <imatech> how do you increase the scrollback on hex chat?
[21:55] <MonkeyDust> Guest64566  what was your initial question?
[21:55] <daftykins> MonkeyDust: we're not allowed to know the real task, which is half the problem :(
[21:56] <TJ-> freaware: If the issue I describe is your problem then installing a later Ubuntu most likely won't solve the issue
[21:56] <zesterer> Hi
[21:56] <zesterer> I've got a major problem, and I've no idea why
[21:57] <daftykins> details? :)
[21:57] <zesterer> I was just playing a game, when suddenly my mouse axis changed
[21:57] <zesterer> Suddenly I move my mouse up and the cursor moves left
[21:57] <zesterer> My touchpad works fine
[21:57] <daftykins> check the game options / restart it.
[21:57] <zesterer> It was a flash game, so I doubt it's that
[21:57] <zesterer> besides, I just rebooted and it didn't fix it
[21:58] <Guest64566> no i am trying to install the right thing rubyldap... .deb file though with dpkg i would have to install all the dependencies in a certain order before that package could be installed. So now i was wondering if i could uses apt-get on the local folder that has all the deb's and there dependencies all there so that it can resolve me dependencies and not have to go over the net everytime i need a dependency because i have them loc
[21:58] <Guest64566> ally... it also free's up bandwith of the repo servers to if people chose to do this because they where going to reinstall there os's a bunch of times
[21:58] <daftykins> Guest64566: using a .deb is not the best way to begin with.
[21:58] <daftykins> that's why you're going wrong.
[21:58] <daftykins> Guest64566: no, you're still going about it all wrong.
[21:59] <MonkeyDust> Guest64566  if you have to ask it, don't try it... leave it to experienced users
[21:59] <zesterer> daftykins, I've tried flipping the screen orientation a few times and still nothing
[21:59] <Guest64566> if i apt-get download the whole trusty repo locally to a directory is there away to tell apt-get to install a package from the local directory using the local directory first to resolve dependencies other then going over the net to the trusty repo
[22:00] <TJ-> Guest64566: in those scenarios many sites use 'apt-cacher-ng'
[22:00] <TJ-> Guest64566: Other sites will use 'apt-mirror' and 'apt-clone'
[22:00] <daftykins> zesterer: sorry, i don't really help with games... much less flash ones.
[22:00] <ritztech> im trying to do a Socks SSH tunnel (i did it with Securecrt way)   but tyring to on linux now   so i dont have to use it   A-->B-->C      i need to get to C  but only way is to hop from A to B then C   i just wanna like 1081 to C from A right away After the tunnel is built
[22:00] <zesterer> daftykins, I'm 100% certain it has nothing to do with the game
[22:01] <avenger_q> ive never had cyber sex before
[22:01] <zesterer> daftykins, I just mentioned the game as a way of explaining that I wasn't doing anything that would normally cause this behaviour
[22:01] <elhoir> avenger_q, wtf?
[22:01] <daftykins> zesterer: ah ok so what you should've said is that it's happening on your DE?
[22:01] <avenger_q> sorry wrong channel
[22:01] <daftykins> elhoir: don't feed the trolls
[22:01] <zesterer> daftykins, Yeah
[22:01] <TJ-> zesterer: that is weird, is the mouse USB or Bluetooth or something else?
[22:01] <daftykins> and the DE of choice is?
[22:02] <zesterer> daftykins, Even after rebooting, plugging mouse in and out, reorienting screen, etc.
[22:02] <zesterer> TJ-, USB + Bluetooth
[22:02] <daftykins> how about testing the guest session? :)
[22:02] <zesterer> E.g: USB dongle thing
[22:02] <daftykins> that'll rule out your account
[22:02] <zesterer> I'll try that. I'll just make a guest session
[22:02] <TJ-> zesterer: So the touchpad moves in the correct axis but the mouse has swapped X<>Y ?
[22:02] <zesterer> TJ-, Yeah
[22:03] <daftykins> i wonder if it shows up in Xorg.0.log as to doing that :)
[22:03] <TJ-> zesterer: that sounds like a per-input-device config got changed somehow.
[22:03] <zesterer> Would that be something that could have been activated by some crazy keyboard shortcut?
[22:03] <TJ-> zesterer: Before thinking about config though, check the device with fresh batteries
[22:03] <scuba323> I just installed Ubuntu 13.04 usin Wubi on a Windows 10 machine. I think I typed the password in wrong when i started the install because I can't log in :/ And i can't seem to boot into grub either. I get a windows 10 boot option screen
[22:04] <zesterer> TJ-, The batteries were fresh about 5 days ago
[22:04] <TJ-> zesterer: When my Bluetooth mouse batteries tire the mouse wanders around the screen randomly on its own
[22:04] <zesterer> It usually goes for about 6 months without needing new ones
[22:04] <MonkeyDust> scuba323  13.04 is dead and wubi is not a real installation
[22:04] <Guest64566> yes but once you have a local copy regardless of what apt-mirror ,...etc tools you uses instead of apt-get  command you need to tell apt-get i would imagine in its source.list to uses the local directory what would that be deb localhost/absolutepath/to/the/repo/folder ?
[22:04] <TJ-> zesterer: OK, but batteries can fail unexpectedly :)
[22:04] <daftykins> scuba323: we don't support 13.04 as it's EOL and WUBI is also not supported, sorry.
[22:04] <scuba323> nice
[22:04] <scuba323> ok
[22:04] <scuba323> thanks anyways :P
[22:04] <TJ-> zesterer: it's easier to do a simple battery swap test before trying to dig into the config
[22:05] <MonkeyDust> Guest64566  what are you still expecting from this channel?
[22:05] <daftykins> Guest64566: you need to accept what you are talking about is all wrong.
[22:06] <daftykins> Guest64566: i already answered this with the correct way but you have ignored it, so please stop talking about this completely ill-conceived plan and learn how to manage packages properly.
[22:06] <Guest64566> somebody to tell me what the line format would be for the sources.list file for a local folder say in /home/ubuntu/myrepdeb
[22:06] <daftykins> you don't do it that way.
[22:06] <daftykins> you are 100% wrong.
[22:07] <MonkeyDust> Guest64566  what you want, cannot be done
[22:07] <avenger_q> i cant remember. she was only 14 at the time.
[22:07] <zesterer> Ok, now it's decided not to work at all
[22:07] <daftykins> !ops | avenger_q please remove due to inappropriate off topic comments.
[22:07] <zesterer> And yes, I put new batteries in it
[22:08] <Guest64566> you can do deb cdrom , deb http or deb ftp i believe so i have to set up a http local site or something else... curious how they know the path for deb cdrom lines
[22:08] <TJ-> Guest64566: Instead of asking us developer questions, please read the dpkg/apt documentation and source-code. We're here to support Ubuntu end-users with problems, not researchers
[22:09] <salerno91> hi
[22:09] <popey> Guest64566: deb file:/foo/bar
[22:09] <popey> Guest64566: for local file access, not http
[22:09] <avenger_q> she was old enough i thought. when can you?
[22:12] <Guest64566> thanks deb file:/  is what i need provided it works if i comment out the other source's in the source list and that type works. One other last question is the order in the sources.list determine what apt-get uses first to clear dependences so if i put deb file:/ first and left the others it would do the local first then check the internet ones
[22:15] <popey> Guest64566: no, it doesn't work like that. you need to set priority if you want one to be preferred over another
[22:16] <Guest64566> i.e does it go top down for checking dependencies in source.list or if not how does one tell apt-get to uses a specific one first or the order of which repo locations to look for first
[22:16] <popey> Guest64566: yes, I understood your question, and said no, it doesn't work like that. you have to set priority
[22:16] <Guest64566> how does one set priorities for apt-get repo's in the source list
[22:16] <popey> http://askubuntu.com/questions/135339/assign-highest-priority-to-my-local-repository
[22:18] <RepThis1> Hey guys im trying to wake-on-lan over internet and i seem to have it working as running an application from the web will wake it but i am interested in which native tool on ubuntu can i use to wake it
[22:18] <popey> RepThis1: etherwake?
[22:19] <RepThis1> popey: i tried wakeonlan -i 12.345.67.890 01:23:45:67:89:ab but all i get is a Sending magic packet to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
[22:19] <SCHAAP137> RepThis1: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/vivid/man8/etherwake.8.html
[22:20] <RepThis1> popey: however this "01:23:45:67:89:ab" i am unsure on as what is ab indicating?
[22:20] <popey> thats the mac address of the ethernet card
[22:21] <Guest64566> O i see the man page for sources.list shows your deb option format you gave me they have one for ssh rsh as well cool but haven't found the priorty thing yet though i still have to look under apt.conf , or apt-preferences ,... man page . so my last thing is finding the order of apt-get using or always commenting out source lines before time. thanks great now i am almost set with most parts of the package manager for debian based
[22:21] <Guest64566>  systems
[22:21] <RepThis1> popey: right but the example has the last 2 as letters so i thought there might be something im missing
[22:21] <popey> RepThis1: it's hexadecimal
[22:22] <RepThis1> hexadecimal base 2 w/e
[22:23] <RepThis1> SCHAAP137: i tried using that but i became confused with the -i switch because it seemed bizare to me that u would have to know the remote systems interface
[22:24] <RepThis1> SCHAAP137: plus i was not sure in which order and which switches to use?
[22:24] <SCHAAP137> RepThis1: the -i option is for defining the local interface, on which to send the magic packet from
[22:25] <utu8o> is ubuntu shuipping on any retail tablets?
[22:25] <daftykins> RepThis1: experiment :)
[22:26] <popey> utu8o: no
[22:26] <SCHAAP137> RepThis1: it will be difficult to break something by mistyping an etherwake command, don't worry about it
[22:26] <salerno91> i want integrate octave language in as it if were native, it's possible ?
[22:26] <RepThis1> im also in the local segment so i was not even sure i could adequately test it.
[22:27] <SCHAAP137> it will only travel in the same broadcast domain
[22:27] <SCHAAP137> it doesn't traverse routers, the magic packet
[22:27] <daftykins> i figured you had to be triggering something on a gateway host to wake up a system on its' internal LAN, since yeah - internet side is not going to happen.
[22:27] <RepThis1> SCHAAP137: not woried about breaking anything, just insight into the proper syntax, the thing i dislike about this application is its man page which does not show usage cases
[22:28] <daftykins> perhaps if you told us what you're trying to achieve?
[22:28] <SCHAAP137> RepThis1: i would say something like: etherwake -i eth0 00:11:22:33:44:55
[22:29] <SCHAAP137> replace that MAC with the actual MAC from the network interface of the machine u want to wake up
[22:29] <RepThis1> is there an application then that can traverse routers like this program http://www.wakeonlan.me/
[22:30] <SCHAAP137> nah, the "over internet" part is nonsense
[22:30] <RepThis1> i can wake from the same network segment, the question was waking a machine not in the local area network
[22:30] <SCHAAP137> that's technically impossible i believe, RepThis1
[22:30] <RepThis1> SCHAAP137: but that application will wake my computer
[22:31] <RepThis1> lol....
[22:31] <hellodontknownam> hi
[22:31] <SCHAAP137> could be, how did you test it?
[22:31] <freaware> why am i stuck here ?? http://imgur.com/brX6Ek9 , it's not progressing ??
[22:31] <RepThis1> SCHAAP137: now if ubuntu has something natively that would be awsome, otherwise i found a piece of software mentioned as wol that i may have to install
[22:32] <RepThis1> u enter the public ip address, remote machines mac address(not the router) and port
[22:32] <SCHAAP137> RepThis1: Ubuntu has the etherwake command, i cannot imagine that this WOL application from that shady website functions any differently
[22:33] <freaware> ???
[22:34] <freaware> how much time   does it need ??
[22:34] <SCHAAP137> freaware: for how long has it been stuck at that point?
[22:35] <RepThis1> SCHAAP137: I configured my router to port forward and added a config line to arp
[22:35] <freaware> <SCHAAP137 : about 30 min
[22:35] <SCHAAP137> freaware: that is indeed very long freaware, are you sure the disk you try to install on is healthy?
[22:35] <freaware> since i started the installation it s been 30 min
[22:36] <freaware> SCHAAP137 : yes it is
[22:36] <SCHAAP137> half an hour for an EXT4 format seems awefully long
[22:37] <freaware> SCHAAP137 : i have ubuntu 14.10  installed in it i set it to format the old version and instal 15 .04
[22:38] <freaware> SCHAAP137 : can i reboot and try again ?
[22:38] <daftykins> freaware: perhaps reboot, delete them and try fresh install
[22:38] <daftykins> probably won't change much
[22:38] <SCHAAP137> hmm, if it's stuck on this point for that long, i would retry it yes
[22:39] <SCHAAP137> also freaware, you could have performed the upgrade from within the system
[22:39] <SCHAAP137> without having to use the installer disk
[22:39] <SCHAAP137> just sudo do-release-upgrade
[22:40] <freaware>  <SCHAAP137 : i have to install it from scrath because i have a networking problem in 14.10
[22:40] <SCHAAP137> ahh, okay
[22:40] <freaware> so am going to try it again and see
[22:42] <SCHAAP137> yeah that seems like the best option now, i agree
[22:48] <avenger_q> i didnt know she was 15 when i touched her.
[22:48] <wileee> !ops
[22:50] <Torontonian> what is your theory on psychopaths?
[22:50] <wileee> genetic
[22:51] <Torontonian> nature vs nurture
[22:51] <wileee> #ubuntu-offtopic  is the chat channel is all, support here.
[22:53] <evobrain> ciao a tutti
[22:53] <evobrain> !list
[23:05] <freaware> my ubuntu installation get stuck in step 5 and now am trying to install  again , and i got this message that the resize operation will take a long time , can you tell me how long ??
[23:06] <freaware> here http://imgur.com/IQQt7a7
[23:06] <daftykins> why do you need to resize? just delete those two partitions and start again
[23:07] <freaware> <daftykins : but you didn't tell me to do that back then ?
[23:08] <daftykins> freaware: what? you didn't need to resize anything before.
[23:09] <daftykins> and you still don't
[23:09] <freaware> daftykins ; wait are you the guy who guided me in the installation precess ?
[23:10] <daftykins> yes.
[23:10] <freaware> daftykins : i don't know what resizing means actually after i hit install now , the installation started and the got stuck for so long
[23:11] <daftykins> yes i know, i suggested you delete the two Linux partitions and start again
[23:12] <freaware> daftykins : what do you mean by two linux partition i have only one of 14.10   and swap
[23:13] <daftykins> yeah 1 + 1 = 2
[23:13] <freaware> daftykins ; ok sorry how to delet them then ?
[23:13] <daftykins> highlight each in the partitioner there and select - to delete them
[23:13] <daftykins> or quit the installer and run gparted instead
[23:13] <Anthaas> Is there an easy way to rename all a file that exists in numerous subdirectories, but rename it in all subdirectories?
[23:14] <Anthaas> i.e. I am in FolderOne, there is SubFolder1, SubFolder2, and SubFolder3, all 3 SubFolders contain "file.txt", but I want to rename to "words.txt" in all SubFolders
[23:15] <Anthaas> Oh actually, thats not an accurate representation.
[23:15] <Anthaas> You know what, doing it manually will be easier
[23:15] <Anthaas> Thanks!
[23:15] <daftykins> ;)
[23:15] <daftykins> Anthaas: #bash anyway otherwise
[23:17] <freaware> daftykins : http://imgur.com/QHeMbc9
[23:18] <asdg9123> I tried to move a Dell Inpiron 545 over to Ubuntu but the soundcard wouldn't work. So I bought another one (Audigy 2 Sound blaster) but I can't seem to get this one to work either. I did "lspci -v" and found that ubuntu could see the soundcard, but I still can't get any sound. Any tips?
[23:18] <daftykins> audigy 2 is quite the museum piece :(
[23:18] <daftykins> freaware: right click swap -> swapoff -> delete sda6 -> then delete sda5.
[23:19] <freaware> daftykins : i don't know how to delete it from the installer and the gparted didn't work ?
[23:19] <asdg9123> daftykins: I honestly don't care about the sound quality. I just want it to work
[23:20] <daftykins> asdg9123: i'm not talking about quality, nm
[23:20] <daftykins> freaware: did you check gparted was installed? did you try to run it? just click the swap and try the - there
[23:21] <fiab_> Happy, Ubuntu Studio 15.04 user here, sorta-newbie... will adding KDE Plasma 5.x cause latency issues or any negative issues, or should I just install it?
[23:21] <asdg9123> Am I better off getting an external usb soundcard? I feel like I've gone back to the 90s.
[23:22] <daftykins> no, i would never get anything audio that's USB
[23:22] <freaware> daftykins ; ok i deleted them but they still apear in the botom should i choose to clear all opreation or apply all ops ?
[23:22] <daftykins> oh so you _are_ in gparted
[23:22] <daftykins> jesus
[23:22] <daftykins> you need to hit the green apply tick yes
[23:23] <fiab_> Are there, ubuntu studio, specific channels on, freenode?
[23:23] <asdg9123> What should I do then? I'm stuck.
[23:23] <daftykins> !channels | fiab_
[23:25] <buzain> !alis
[23:26] <fiab_> thanks folks, will do, reading guidelines, am very familiar with freenode, I will read all -- just looking for anyone to say, No, don't install KDE plasma 5.x on ubuntu studio 15.04 or not
[23:27] <fiab_> good list, reading
[23:28] <fiab_> what's different in official ubuntu channels from most other freenode channels?
[23:28] <freaware> daftykin ; sorry , i dont understand   , here is a screenshot http://imgur.com/edit?album_id=QrCtd
[23:29] <fiab_> that's my last q, found #ubuntustudio, peace ;)
[23:30] <freaware> daftykin : so i need to hit apply all operations ?
[23:35] <daftykins> freaware: how else do you think the task will complete?
[23:38] <freaware> <daftykins ; sorry am kina stupid , okey it's done now i have new option in the installation type should i choose it  it says " install ubuntu alongside them"  or go with something else and create a new partition ?
[23:40] <freaware> daftykins : I think i should choose the first option , right ?
[23:42] <freaware> daftykins ; I consider it a yes !
