[00:11] I am getting screen tearing on my laptop 14.04. it has 2 graphics cards: intel integrated and nvidia. it has the nvidia proprietary driver. how do i know which driver is in use for any given task (e.g. VLC media player)? [00:12] allizom, Firefox is currently your default browser << say my browser, but on xchat, every link gets opened on chromium [00:13] C_minus: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel_graphics#Tear-free_video [00:13] C_minus: There are 2 methods to control hybrid graphics. BumbleBee OR nvidia-prime . Do you use either ? [00:13] Bashing-om nothing i am aware of. [00:14] allizom, second link, firefox is already the standard [00:14] C_minus: K; To get an idea of what is going on .. terminal command ' apt-cache show nvidia-prime ' . and the discussion can continue. [00:14] so i need to do something with xchat [00:16] Bashing-om http://pastebin.com/SipEbKiD [00:17] umpfag: Settings --> URL Handlers in xchat [00:18] C_minus: That was for your info . Currently nvidia-prime is the recommended comtroller for hybrid gra[hics. Is it presently installed ? To see, terminal command ' dpkg -l nvidia-prime ' . [00:18] also, not sure how that username meets the rules here, umpfag [00:18] nicomachus: lmfao [00:18] nicomachus: grandpa [00:18] what command do I write to get xchat to open all links under firefox? [00:19] whats thw problem with my nick? [00:19] nothing [00:19] ooooooooo [00:20] !firefox -remote 'openURL(%s)' [00:20] umpfag: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:20] ? [00:22] run: xdg-open http://xchat.org/faq/ [00:22] lol [00:24] that command opened a tab under chromium [00:25] umpfag: yea, exactly. Now click on the link on that tab that says "What's the deal with opening URLs in XChat". [00:26] so it's not xchat. chromium is your default browser [00:26] no is not, preferences on my satr menu sey otherwise [00:26] If you're not using Gnome, e.g KDE or some other desktop environment, you're fresh out of luck! [00:26] Note for Debian and Ubuntu: Integration with Gnome is broken on this distro! Please set sensible-browser instead. We have no control over what the Debian packagers do, so complain to them for this screw up. Example: sudo update-alternatives --set x-www-browser /usr/bin/firefox [00:27] i dont understand that [00:27] umpfag: use hexchat. problem solved. it's more up to date anyway. [00:28] are you using 2.6.8 or older? then you're on EOL [00:29] no, sorry, 2.8 [00:29] 2.8.8 [00:30] umpfag: did you check under Settings --> URL Handlers? [00:30] How could I automatically cancel logout in Ubuntu when there is an unsaved file? Right now if I logout and I forget to save a file it basically discards all changes without telling me [00:30] nicomachus, yes, but I have no idea what to write there [00:30] !firefox -remote 'openURL(%s)' [00:30] ? [00:30] nicomachus: xdg-open fires up chromium, no xchat involved [00:30] yea allizom I know, but he doesn't seem to believe you. [00:31] no, its that I dont understand [00:31] umpfag: !firefox -new-window %s [00:32] nicomachus, thanks, that opened a new window. How do I open a new tab on ane xistin ff window? [00:33] ok [00:33] that was easy :D [00:34] thx Nickeeh [00:34] nicomachus, [00:35] umpfag: !firefox -new-window %s [00:35] idk if that went through or not, my connection died. === fginther is now known as fginther` === nicomachus_ is now known as nicomachus [00:43] then you dindt hear my thank you nicomachus ? [00:47] Hey there ! I'm trying to boot my ubuntu kernel version 4.04 , It gets hung while booting up at slice system-systememd\xBacklight.slice [00:48] Does anyone have a clue ? [00:50] clues are so hard to come by [00:51] hi, can someone tell me if this could be a hardware problem? http://www.directupload.net/file/d/4137/4vva8wc5_jpg.htm [00:51] :chakcedony , can you please help me ? [00:52] for me this seems like ata9 is the network device? this should not stop booting the os i guess... shouldnt it [00:55] rakesh123: what version of ubuntu are you using? [00:56] nicomachus: 14.04 [00:56] with kernel 4.04? [00:56] 4.0.4?* [00:57] nicomachus: i think yes ? although it shows 3.93 , I can't boot to confirm anything now [00:57] tete_: looks like you have a cable/controller problem [00:58] TJ-, the problem is that this happens on regular boot to my OS and also when i try to boot from dvd [00:58] just found this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/228927/boot-failure-failed-command-identify-packet-device [00:59] will try that and hope that does it [00:59] nicomachus: any idea ? :( [01:00] nicomachus: it says ubuntu 4.04 on grub [01:01] rakesh123: it should say 4.0.4? [01:01] nicomachus: sorry it's 15.04 not 14.04 [01:02] nicomachus: In the logs , everything is OK OK ( in green ) , only one in yellow and that is dependecny failed for pNFS block [01:02] When using ufw, how does one limit the generated rules to ipv4 traffic? [01:02] i got nothin, rakesh123 [01:04] nicomachus: i mean when I boot , these are the things i get on the screen [01:05] ubuntu have a firewall option or do you need software. [01:05] lianna: Ubuntu typically comes with ufw [01:05] okay thx greenride [01:08] grenades and handbomb software is good what it does is it scans all your programs at once by creating a dosier of a html file link to all of your files [01:08] jk i made that up [01:09] anyone have an idea how can I set up Ubuntu as server for mailing .. Through when u access to a public wireless you should sign with email given from the server? [01:09] nicomachus: any idea ? :/ or you didn't get me at all [01:16] Human Right Wolf Defense http://holmesivonline.com [01:17] Hey. Having issues find the rest of my computers in my wifi connection. In files in the folder Network only my pc shows up. Any ideas? [01:22] rakesh123: I already told you I have no idea. If someone knows, they'll reply to you. Otherwise I would start searching AskUbuntu and stack exchange. [01:22] rakesh123: does the system fail to start when you see the Backlight.slice message? [01:23] TJ-: Yes , it gets hung there [01:24] rakesh123: Will the system start in Recovery mode? [01:24] TJ-: No , it won't :( === Fudgey is now known as Fudge [01:26] rakesh123: Obviously it's using systemd-init so on the kernel command-line try starting it with "systemd.crash_shell=true" so it starts a shell if things go wrong. If that works, you can then start debugging/disabling the faulty service [01:28] TJ-: So I press the E button and add that line , right ? [01:28] rakesh123: did you change the kernel? did it ever work? [01:28] Ben64: No i didn't change the kernel , it worked before :/ [01:29] Ben64: I just changed some settings in BIOS to set up eMMC boot and now I [01:29] hello [01:29] i need litle bit help ! [01:29] Ben64: now I'm done , and i want to boot from the hard disk [01:30] i want to install Unreal IRCd but i dont no .. error and error starting server .. [01:30] rakesh123: what did you change? change it back [01:30] rakesh123: correct, add the param to the "linux ..." line [01:30] wKtsimi: honestly, you probably shouldn't be running an irc server if you can't figure out how [01:31] Ben64: yes i disabled and restored back my orginal settings [01:31] start server irc and show this [01:31] Error binding stream socket to IP 93.33.78.122 port 6667 [01:31] Ben64: is the error , something related to BIOS ? [01:31] rakesh123: if the system worked correctly before you changed the BIOS configuration, I'd recommend restoring the BIOS configuration and considering what you changed [01:35] TJ-: I restored the factory settings , still didnt work , anyway I add that line after $vt_handoff ? === michael__ is now known as Guest61741 [01:36] rakesh123: add the string, yes, space-separated from other parameters === cscelza_ is now known as Guest74470 [01:37] Hey. Having issues find the rest of my computers in my wifi connection. In files in the folder Network only my pc shows up. Any ideas? [01:38] ?? [01:38] !rekt [01:39] i need litle bit help [01:39] i want to install Unreal IRCd server but starting error ... cand you help me ? [01:39] TJ-: I press Ctrl X after that , it enters a character instead of booting up :( [01:40] TJ-: okay , done [01:40] wKtsimi: irc servers are big targets for ddos and other bad stuff, you really shouldn't be running one without the knowledge to stop such things [01:41] for my community [01:41] !info samba [01:41] samba (source: samba): SMB/CIFS file, print, and login server for Unix. In component main, is optional. Version 2:4.1.13+dfsg-4ubuntu3 (vivid), package size 864 kB, installed size 11250 kB [01:41] i neded .. not ddos ! [01:41] g4rrucho: believe it's in that package netbios does lookup for samba (windows) clients on the network [01:42] TJ-: I get a shell now [01:42] TJ-: what next ? [01:42] i paid for install ircd server in platform ! [01:43] wKtsimi: i suggest you read the unrealircd documentation [01:44] i read all documentation , all tutorial read .. i dont no ... error and error ... start server ... [01:44] rakesh123: check the log with "journalctl" see if there are clues as to why it is failing [01:45] Somebody my friends died this morning and they went to hell [01:46] TJ-: there's one in red , Ignoring BGRT : Invalid status 0 ( expected 1 ) [01:47] TJ-: failed to insert module autofs4 [01:48] wafflejock: can you help me with dat? [01:48] TJ-: and 3 others [01:48] rakesh123: BGRT you can ignore, it's a warning but not critical [01:48] TJ-: okay , what about autofs4 ? [01:49] rakesh123: apparently it's something systemd would like but isn't built into the Debian/Ubuntu kernels [01:50] rakesh123: probably easiest for now, to get the system to start, to disable the backlight service [01:50] hey all. trying to install grub customizer to remove some menu entries for BURG bootloader. Heres where I ran into trouble. any ideas? thanks! https://paste.kde.org/pkaxexiip [01:50] TJ-: right , can i put that in boot arguments ? [01:51] also willing to remove these entries manually but I do not have the knowledge [01:52] rakesh123: try identifying it with "systemctl list-units | grep Backlight" [01:52] TJ-: Note , there's also these errors when I run journ. timed out waitinf for device , dependcy failed for sysroot , dependcuy failed for initrd root file system , dependcy failed for reload configuration from real boot [01:52] rakesh123: that's because we've crashed and other services haven't started in time [01:53] TJ-: okay , so i disable the backlight serivcee in boot arguments ? [01:53] ubernoob, using 3rd party apps just makes it harder, grub will do most of what they do. [01:53] rakesh123: do you see the Backlight.slice name there? [01:53] TJ-: in the logs you mean ? [01:53] rakesh123: no, you disable it now - from this shell - once you've identified the correct unit name [01:53] rakesh123: try identifying it with "systemctl list-units | grep Backlight" [01:54] TJ-: okay [01:54] rakesh123: if you see something very similar to 'Backlight.slice' as a name, that'll be the one you need to disable. The naming may not be exact [01:54] wileee: how do i remove unwanted menu entries then? [01:54] rakesh123: assuming you do see the name, use "systemctl disable " [01:55] ubernoob, like what? [01:55] TJ-: when I do a grep of Backlight , I can't see any line [01:56] TJ-: so it's not a backlight problem ? :/ [01:56] ubernoob, grub is a key area for lots of things so it has uses you will need. [01:56] g4rrucho: should be able to just, sudo apt-get install samba, in a terminal and be good to go [01:57] wileee: well, heres the issue, i just want 2 options on the grub/BURG menu instead of the 5 that are there. windows recovery and another windows one as well === Blaster is now known as Guest45770 [01:58] rakesh123: we know the Backlight.slice was there on-screen [01:58] rakesh123: maybe the actual unit name is different. How about "systemctl list-units | grep acklight" ? :D [01:58] ubernoob, You using the windows? [01:59] TJ-: oh yes it shows , it says loaded active plugged [02:00] TJ-: so i disable it now ? [02:00] rakesh123: if it says loaded, then it didn't fail, something else did === Batman is now known as Guest9911 [02:00] rakesh123: so need to return to the logs and try to figure out what that was [02:01] wileee: not really, just one of them that my wife uses. so I dual boot. Just want to remove the ones for recovery and safe mode and memtest and those [02:01] ubernoob, Basically burg nor the customizer are supported here, I'm trying to make sure you have an ease of travel if possible. [02:01] rakesh123: "journalctl" and then press G to jump to the end of the log, and work backwards from there [02:01] TJ-: okay , only the ones in the red are the errors right ? [02:01] ubernoob, safe mode removal is a bad idea is all, not sure on the recovery, the mem test is easy. [02:03] ubernoob, sudo chmod -x /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ removes mem +x moves it back === Guest9911 is now known as Derp [02:04] wileee: okay I will do that. Thank you :) === Derp is now known as Derpy === Derpy is now known as DerpyMan [02:04] ubernoob, I would drop the customizer and burg but that's me, I've used burg. No problem hope that is closer [02:05] rakesh123: Yes, but remember what you are looking at is *this* boot not the failed one. Is that Ubuntu 15.04 or 15.10? [02:05] rakesh123: we need to look at the failed boot logs, if they exist [02:06] wileee: why drop burg? I liked the graphic interface :( lol [02:06] ubernoob, heh, if you like it use it, the customizer is where people show up here generally. ;) [02:09] TJ-: 15.04 === krs is now known as Guest23533 [02:10] hey so I am running Xubuntu 14.04 right now, and I was looking at themes for xfce4. And I found one. But then I realized, I didn't know how to install themes on xfce. So a few Duckduckgo results later and I came up with this: http://wiki.xfce.org/howto/install_new_themes So I followed each instructions exactly and found out I have no folder titled themes in my /.local/share/ dir. So, where do I go from here? [02:11] hey [02:11] wileee: I've always wondered why no one seems to use burg. Lots of people cant install the grub customizer apparently [02:11] rakesh123: ok, in *theory* "journalctl -b -1" should show you the last-but-1 boot logs [02:12] can ubuntu be used campuswide in all college pc's? [02:12] dankmeme, Was at mine you will have to test it, or ask IT. [02:12] k [02:12] what are the pros and cons of using ubuntu in college? [02:13] dankmeme, what do they use now? [02:13] dankmeme, Err, read that wrong, this is not polling is all but support. [02:14] in my college they use windows 7 [02:14] some servers run linux [02:14] Debian to be exact [02:14] TJ-: I can' any erros there :/ [02:15] Sorry bout that... [02:15] dankmeme, You might try #ubuntu-offtopic hard to tell but I think some have seen a college there, heh. [02:16] thanks wileee [02:16] no prob good luck, we had linux labs [02:17] rakesh123: do the timestamps look like a previous boot, or this current one? [02:17] wileee, my school uses Mac. :/ Rip off of Unix. Well so is linux but linux is a better rip off :) [02:17] all three at mine [02:17] jeez [02:18] US state college [02:18] wileee, I go to a very poor middle school... [02:19] zacwalls: Linux is not Unix, it's a "mostly-POSIX-compatible" OS. [02:20] TJ-, I know, but very much like unix. For instance, bash. That is like the biggest relation but still.... [02:21] zacwalls, in the US anyway the college should have more hopefully, but you're here I recognize you you give back anyway, that's great. [02:21] TJ-: both look the same [02:22] wileee, thanks. Anyways, do you know how to install themes on xfce 4? [02:22] rakesh123: hmmm, I don't use 15.04 so I'm not sure if systemd-journald is archiving the older boot logs [02:22] zacwalls, Have not used it for awhile so not really. [02:23] aww [02:23] rakesh123: try "journalctl --list-boots" [02:23] I don't perticularly like Ubuntu but on older PC's with the correct desktop environment it is really good. [02:25] TJ-: it doesn't work , it says invalid command [02:28] rakesh123: that option must have been added since 15.04 then. Try "journalctl --help" see if you can identify a similar option that lists all the boot logs it has kept [02:28] zacwalls: There is also #xfce on this network . [02:29] rakesh123: without some clue in the logs there's no way to know what to do in order to get the system to boot [02:33] Anyone got a working 15.04 system, can do "pastebinit <( grep -rn ForwardToSyslog /etc/systemd/journald.conf{,.d}/* )" [02:38] TJ-, I'm in 15.04 this grep -rn ForwardToSyslog /etc/systemd/journald.conf{,.d}/* [02:39] wileee: slight typo in it, oops, the ending should be ... {,.d/*} [02:39] cool hold on [02:39] How do I open a port for incoming connections? [02:40] i know I have to use iptables...but I don't know how to really do that kind of stuff... [02:40] Heh, gimme the whole one and I'll pastebinit [02:40] TJ-, ^^ [02:41] just to be correct is all [02:42] Anyone got a working 15.04 system, can do "pastebinit <( grep -rn ForwardToSyslog /etc/systemd/journald.conf{,.d/*} )" [02:44] TJ-, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12747359/ [02:45] wileee: can you check if rsyslogd/syslogd is installed/running? [02:45] TJ-, sure [02:46] wileee: "sudo systemctl status syslog" [02:46] wileee: rakesh123 had only journald logs, it seems 15.04 has the ForwardtoSyslog commented out, unlike on 15.10, which is why there were no prior-boot logs to check === Mrokii_ is now known as Mrokii [02:48] TJ-, rsyslog.service running not sure in any of this, just running 15.04. [02:48] wileee: actually, that can't be correct. the default according to the man-page is for ForwardToSyslog to be enabled, and your pastebin shows the setting is commented-out, but also set to 'yes' if it were used, so that makes no sense. I wonder why that is [02:49] TJ-, Heh, no idea, I just happened to log in to update, I'm not familiar at all with these processes. [02:49] wileee: the problem I'm trying to workaround - for rakesh123 - is how to enable rsylog to collect the journald log output. [02:50] ahh well, he's been gone a while, maybe he figured something out. I have to go to bed! [02:50] TJ-, Here is the whole output for all info, http://pastebin.com/SeSVxBph [02:58] wileee: so rsylogd is running, wonder why journald doesn't forward messages to it on 15.04.

[06:45] baizon, I am thinking I should just go for nVidia as people seem to have a lot less issues with it [06:46] TheHackOps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD [06:46] TheHackOps: im using an 270x, and have no problems at all [06:46] TheHackOps: playing dota and have the same amount of fps then on my windows machine [06:46] baizon, Are you using the AMD ATI drivers [06:46] FPS is fine actually [06:46] Its that the game bugs out graphically a lot [06:47] TheHackOps: but its the game devs fault :( [06:47] Not rly [06:47] TheHackOps: cs:go is buggy :( [06:47] I am not convinced until I try everything [06:47] i mean that is bad coding, when you open the scoreboard and lose 30fps [06:48] baizon, Not if you're relying on calls to the GPu that the driver does better [06:48] TheHackOps: yes that is true ofc [06:48] Wifi trouble here!? [06:48] I'm from the world of graphics programming but not on nix [06:48] TheHackOps: but yeah nvidia gives currently the best performance with closed sourced drivers [06:49] baizon, Yea [06:49] havingtrouble: no, graphics [06:49] havingtrouble, I actually have had this issue [06:49] TheHackOps: well im personally very happy with my amd 270x :)= [06:49] Is it a lenovo machine? [06:49] No sony [06:49] uhh [06:50] I had to write a startup hack that fixed it but my laptop is down stairs [06:50] baizon, I hate this 280x it sucked on windows as well [06:50] but for different reasons [06:50] I really need wifi now cuz i cant get the broadband [06:51] TheHackOps: the hope lies in the new amdgpu drivers :) [06:51] baizon, Doubtful [06:52] I have never installed fglrx without my system going kaboom [06:52] TheHackOps: well i had no trouble at all with them, both installing and uninstalling :) [06:53] havingtrouble, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2222374 [06:53] baizon, Ill try that guide [06:53] on the ubuntu help site [06:54] seems I missed a step or two [06:54] aticonfig --init is very important, i missed that a few times [06:54] YES [06:54] ok [06:54] that makes so much sense [06:54] why my xorg server would not start [06:54] lol [06:54] * TheHackOps cries but also hugs baizon [06:55] TheHackOps: I play CSGO from time to time, using nVidia gtx750 on one machine and gtx 650 on the other, never have graphic problems. [06:55] Worst that happens is the radar disappears from time to time [06:56] Weird [06:56] I dont get that [06:56] Just flickering [06:56] mokmeister: well this is also a cs:go bug, it also happens under windows [06:56] I gave up on AMD cards a while ago coz of problems with the proprietary drivers [06:56] like i said, this game has many game-related bugs [06:57] baizon: indeed, the game is far from perfect! Still great fun though! [06:58] If I wanna upgrade to a newer version of Ubuntu, I boot from live cd and use gparted to delete linux partitions. Do I have to format the partitions or nah [06:59] xStark: you could do an upgrade from within ubuntu, or you could format and install fresh, whatever you want really [07:00] Ben64: I dont wanna upgrade, I wanna clean install. To clean install, you can just boot from a live cd and delete linux partiitions and install new ubuntu. The question is, do I need to format the deleted linux partitions? [07:01] xStark: you can format without deleting the partitions [07:01] xStark: you can't format a deleted partition, it is deleted [07:02] baizon, Whats weird is I dont have an xorg config [07:02] Ben64: The deleted space will remain as "Unallocated space" and you can format it. [07:02] TheHackOps: you need to aticonfig -init to create a xorg config, or else fglrx wont work [07:02] Ben64 and baizon: I'm referring to this guide https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/upgrade [07:02] you can't format unallocated space [07:02] baizon, I know but it says to back up the open source one [07:02] I dont have one [07:03] is that normal [07:03] TheHackOps: yes, that is normal [07:03] baizon, Can you feel my noobness? [07:04] brb gotta reboot [07:05] TheHackOps: the open source config is /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d [07:05] xStark: this how is bad :/ [07:05] xStark: "Then use this fine disk partitioner, to completely destroy the Ubuntu partitions. Including the swap partition. " <- why? just why? [07:06] this howto* [07:06] baizon: To clean install a new version of ubuntu. [07:06] 5. I advise against creating a separate home partition. [07:06] Not upgrade. [07:06] yeah, i wouldn't listen to the site [07:06] separate home is good [07:07] xStark: you dont need to delete everything, just format the partitions [07:07] baizon, Ok I am installing fglrx [07:07] Did you also install the hardware accel stuff [07:07] Ben64: yeah, i have a /home on a seperate partition so i dont lose everything ive configured :/ [07:07] baizon: Just go to windows and format the partitions, boot from live cd and install Ubuntu? [07:08] TheHackOps: yeah [07:08] ok [07:08] xStark: do it from the ubuntu installer... you're making it way harder than it needs to be [07:08] baizon, If this works [07:08] I will love you long time [07:08] +1 what Ben64 said [07:08] Since all the games I play are linux native [07:09] and they should work with decent performance with this card [07:09] Ben64: Alright then. [07:12] my watch folders in rtorrent only load every other torrent I download, any ideas? I can download the same torrent twice and replace the old one and it will start, why wont the first one? [07:14] baizon, Package 'xvba-va-driver' has no installation candidate [07:14] Is it ok to proceed without it [07:14] on 15.04 [07:18] TheHackOps: yes [07:19] ok [07:19] I installed the rest of them [07:19] baizon, Is that bad? [07:19] if I have the rest of those packages without xvba-va-driver [07:20] TheHackOps: thats not a problem [07:20] cool [07:20] baizon, Ok final reboot wish me lucj [07:20] okay talk to you guys later I guess [07:20] * TheHackOps hopes its not gonna go boom [07:26] test [07:26] hey [07:26] i have a windows computer [07:27] and want to connect to SSH [07:27] how can i do that [07:27] without PuTTy [07:27] thx [07:27] why without putty? [07:27] pls answer fast its super urgent [07:27] putty wont run on my machine for some reason [07:27] and its very ugly [07:27] its ugly asf guys help me out [07:27] i dont know of another ssh client for windows offhand [07:28] Lingo_: well windows doesnt support ssh, so you need putty [07:28] but putty is so bad [07:28] baizon, it was hopeful http://m.imgur.com/wynYPfh [07:28] perhaps theres some ways to improve the appearance [07:28] I get this every time though [07:28] are you saying i give putty a haircut? [07:28] TheHackOps: check x log? === Blaster is now known as Guest62789 [07:29] How [07:29] lingo: perhaps http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ [07:29] Lingo_: tectia ssh [07:29] TheHackOps: first thing that doesnt work for me and i hate it is, i set the "noplymouth" boot option [07:30] TheHackOps: then it should work, else try nomodeset [07:30] you know what bro [07:30] thats ugly too [07:30] i want a non-ugly ssh client [07:30] like mac has [07:30] what do you expect frm a terminal? [07:31] OSX terminal is so much nicer [07:31] you cant change the font or background color..make it pretty? [07:31] baizon yeesh last entry is segfault [07:31] Server aborting [07:31] TheHackOps: which fglrx are u using? [07:32] Acording to the log [07:32] 15.20.2 [07:32] thx guys leet help [07:32] Lingo_: please dont use new line as punctuation [07:32] im out [07:32] Firegl kernel [07:33] TheHackOps: ou, u dont use the default ubuntu kernel? [07:33] I do [07:33] Thats the driver version [07:34] a ok [07:34] Im looking at the logs [07:34] Ill take another picture [07:34] TheHackOps: did u use the ubuntu default fglrx? [07:36] Yes [07:36] I just installed from repo [07:36] http://m.imgur.com/tPSLKeQ [07:36] The critical line i think is Failed to open CMMQS connection [07:39] TheHackOps: try the newer driver from http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Ubuntu+x86+64 [07:47] baizon, i have just reverted back to old drivers [07:47] Ill try website ones after [07:47] TheHackOps: ok, nice :) [07:49] Is BleachBit good? People are really complaining about filling disk space in the reviws. [07:50] xStark: well, im using my own cleaning script [07:50] ive had problems with it removing things i later needed to compile stuff [07:51] baizon: Yeah I would use my own cleaning script, but you see, I'm no pro. [07:51] xStark: then use bleachbit :) [07:52] baizon: Right now I use sudo apt-get autoremove and sudo apt-get autoclean [07:52] xStark: purge is also good [07:52] baizon: Well people have been complaining about filling disk space... It's the only reason I'm hesitation. [07:52] hesitating* [07:52] purge? [07:53] xStark: if you ap-get remove something then it doesn't get rid of the config files associated with it, purge does [07:54] sudo apt-get purge? [07:54] thank you auronandace [07:55] hello. My /dev/sda1 is full. how do I remove unnecessary files from it? It's a vm so i don't have any GUI [07:55] xStark: man apt-get is a good read to find out more [07:55] elosz: well you have to check the spare data [07:55] baizon: didnt get you [07:56] xStark: http://askubuntu.com/questions/376253/is-not-installed-residual-config-safe-to-remove-all [07:56] elosz: check what it taking the space, then we can help what you can delete [07:56] how to check that baizon ? [07:56] elosz: you can always run sudo apt-get autoremove and sudo apt-get autoclean [07:57] dpkg -l | grep '^rc' | awk '{print $2}' | xargs sudo apt-get purge [07:57] oh I see [07:57] elosz: run du -h and check the files [07:59] need help regarding bluetooth setup in ubuntu 14.04...... Dialup internet connection not working.. It works fine in linux mint though.... Can anyone help in finfing out whats the issue....thanks in advance [08:00] oops.. baizon i am on centos machine [08:00] elosz: well then youre in the wrong channel :) [08:01] baizon: but i guess basic commands would be same [08:01] go to #centos for centos support [08:05] hello [08:06] hi mid [08:06] trying to boot ubuntu iso from HDD with grub, installed grub-imageboot and successfully created the entry [08:07] but the problem is that when it is booting, im getting the error: "MEMDISK no ramdisk image specified! [08:07] any ideas? [08:07] baizon: It didn't even ask me yes or no, it automatically went to "Abort" http://i.imgur.com/ssBZJ5Y.png [08:07] Hello PEOPLE! [08:08] xStark: command is not correct [08:08] I know everything [08:08] I now so much, as much as a king. [08:09] Ben64: What's the command then? [08:09] pppoe-start: Cannot read configuration file '/etc/ppp/pppoe.conf' [08:09] xStark: that command might remove stuff you want, i wouldn't suggest doing that anyway [08:09] How can I solve this issue? [08:09] here is the entry created by grub-imageboot http://paste.ubuntu.com/12749012/ [08:10] Alright === derAbSpritzA is now known as derNAME [08:10] Ben64: It didn't run anyway, it aborted on its own. [08:10] xStark: the secon answer is the right one [08:10] xStark: dpkg -l | grep '^rc' | awk '{print $2}' | sudo xargs dpkg --purge [08:11] xStark: yeah, well it might save as most like 3MB [08:11] not worth potentially removing things you want [08:12] baizon: Thank you it worked. [08:13] BleachBit is working well [08:14] does anybody have solution to my problem? [08:15] is there a typo? [08:16] in "linux16 /memdisk iso" [08:16] MiDOZ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot [08:16] Sorry guys looks like I got DC'd a few times [08:16] with locate and the -r option, what can I use instead of . (any character)? [08:17] nova: no typos, file piped as is [08:26] MiDOZ: does this apply to you? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-imageboot/+bug/1277533 [08:26] Launchpad bug 1277533 in grub-imageboot (Ubuntu Trusty) "grub-imageboot doesn't like nonstandard image locations" [Undecided,New] [08:27] nova: let me check [08:28] nova: no, I have a separate /boot partition [08:28] use the link i gave you [08:29] the image is located in /boot/images [08:29] I've been through it Ben64 [08:29] and?

[08:32] MiDOZ i was just comparing your config to the one in the bugtracker, and noticed the path differences..and then you said it is in /boot/images [08:33] or just follow the steps i gave you? [08:33] changed both lines... rebooting [08:33] Ben64: I've been through the link and did the same, nothing worked for me [08:34] well thats the preferred way of doing it [08:34] k bye [08:35] MiDOZ i dont know if you want to change the line above the iso path [08:36] nova: I rebooted, got the error: `/boot/memdisk' not found [08:37] and that I need to load the kernels first [08:37] i dont think the memdisk line should be changed from what you had [08:38] wasting so much time on trying to force the wrong tool to work [08:38] Guys, /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 also had those key symbols but it disappered when I booted in windows and then booted back to Ubuntu http://i.imgur.com/QeFHrmx.png [08:39] Any idea why that happens [08:39] xStark: means they're mounted or otherwise in use [08:40] Oh, I see [08:41] Hey sorry for all the disconnecting before [08:41] I have a question [08:41] Which I will now ask [08:42] What's the best way to access a machine on my local network at home, through the internet? [08:42] ssh? [08:43] There are a few services I'd like to be able to use [08:43] yeah ssh is one of them [08:43] ssh, deluged, a few others [08:43] The problem is exposing the machine to the internet [08:43] I've tried port forwarding but it won't work [08:44] you just need to forward ports in your router and make firewall rules to allow the traffic..if you usie the firewall [08:44] and configure those services [08:45] you can connect to ssh with filezilla (sftp) to transfer files easily [08:45] didn't work [08:45] did you entirely rule out Bens suggestion? [08:46] yes, anyway, I've got other things to do on Sunday [08:46] I'll get back to the problem later on [08:46] 44 minutes spent trying to do it the wrong way, next time try the right way [08:47] jalnt what part of port forwarding didnt work? [08:50] Hello [08:50] jalnt: if you dont have access to the router config and can't port forward then maybe something like TeamViewer would work [08:50] hi there, I am using Ubuntu 14.04. just noveau driver. no Nvidia. My computer is ACER V5 471pg using hybrid intergrated-NVIDIA driver. how do i disable intergratted graphic n only use noveau.

[09:27] how to i change leadpad color, i tried changing gkt theme [09:28] metronomo90: Yes. [09:28] yes [09:28] xela2244 leafpad with sudo or without? [09:28] without [09:28] xela2244: did you try in #kubuntu [09:28] yes [09:30] i tried GTK_THEME=diehard4 leafpad [09:31] thank you! So this is my problem: I'm running Ubuntu 15.04 and my laptop has an integrated Video Card (Intel) and a dedicated one (ATI R7 M265). If I use the default drivers configuration, animations and everything works very smoothly, but I don't have any kind of hardware accelleration (for example when I open a flash video my CPU goes 50% or higher) [09:32] metronomo90: did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras? [09:32] I've tried to install fglrx, fglrx-updates and also drivers directly from ATI website, but what I get is just an incredibly slugghish system. So I went back do the default driver [09:33] metronomo90: work with driver that performs best on your system [09:33] yes lotuspsychje, but, for example all animations were super slow [09:34] metronomo90: if radeon driver works good now, use that? [09:35] when you say "radeon driver" do you mean the default ubuntu one? [09:35] metronomo90: There is only one driver called radeon. [09:35] metronomo90: check yours with sudo lshw -C video [09:35] metronomo90: after driver= === Dr3amc0d3r|away is now known as Dr3amc0d3r [09:36] the result of your command is telling me that I'm just using the integrated card (Intel). Driver in use is i915 [09:37] metronomo90: so your system uses the onboard intel graphics then [09:38] metronomo90: check bios if you can switch to your ati [09:39] metronomo90: or maybe check your syslog and dmesg to see why radeon driver doesnt load [09:39] metronomo90: also keep in mind that LTS can perform better for your system [09:40] I think that Ubuntu "sees" the dedicated card: it presents me the possibility to install fglrx driver [09:41] metronomo90: but you said its sluggish, so best stick to radeon driver then [09:41] isn't fglrx the same as radeon? [09:41] metronomo90: what else shows in your list [09:42] sudo lshw -C video just show me Intel Car [09:42] *card [09:42] metronomo90: try your additional drivers section please [09:43] by the way, thank you for your kind help! [09:43] what would you like to know about my additional drivers section? [09:43] metronomo90: what shows up your list [09:43] if I shut down my ubuntu gnome, programs such as firefox and sublime text do not seem to shut down properly, since they don't seem to remember previous sessions [09:44] is anybody familiar with this? [09:44] Ixxie: maybe the #ubuntu-gnome guys know this? [09:45] lotuspsychje: I will ask, but should it really matter if its gnome or unity? [09:45] It shows me that I have an ATI R7 M265 and it presents me 3 possible drivers: xserver-xorg-video-ati (in use), fglrx and fglrx-updates [09:45] metronomo90: wich one is active right now? [09:46] xserver-xorg-video-ati (in use) [09:46] exactly xserver-xorg-video-ati [09:46] Ixxie: not sure mate, if you dont get responds re-ask here once in a while [09:46] metronomo90: but it doesnt show in lshw, so check your syslog and dmesg for radeon errors [09:49] metronomo90: did you test this on 14.04.3 too?

[09:52] I have no reason to think that they have problems everything is perfect except this video issue [09:52] what should I check? [09:55] metronomo90: you had same issues on 14.04? [09:55] yes [09:56] metronomo90: can you pastebin syslog aswell please [09:56] it tells me that syslog command doesn't exist. Should I use dsyslog maybe?

[10:26] lotuspsychje: no, I used the win8 dual boot for the first time in a while and then when I restarted to go back to linux grub was gone [10:27] lmmx: there's an important performance fix firmware on samsungs site, i reccomend you to install the firmware and after install ubuntu again [10:28] lotuspsychje: thanks, I will, but.. right here and now I just need to get back to usable Linux, and need help reinstalling grub [10:28] lmmx: just letting you know [10:28] lotuspsychje: ya, thanks :-) [10:29] hello Beliq [10:29] Hi lorenzo52 [10:30] EriC^^: are you still there? sorry it took so long, had to set up wifi on the livecd [10:30] !recovergrub | lmmx maybe this can help meanwhile? [10:30] lmmx maybe this can help meanwhile?: Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub [10:34] lmmx: your purpose is to save data or just make the ubuntu back working again? [10:34] How do I switch off the stuff from amazon search in dash and other stuff? [10:35] Oh I got it [10:35] nvm [10:35] lotuspsychje: there's nothing wrong with my linux partition/file system, I just need to reinstall grub to boot into it [10:39] Hi, I add the rules from here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicSecurity/Firewall [10:39] should I let it "repair windows boot files" ? Since it already boots into windows I don't think it has a problem with that ... ? :-/ [10:40] But now when I try to connect to a server with a program I can't, is there any way to see that port is trying that program to access so i can open it please? [10:41] fungisilmk: Can you be more specific, and specify "connect", "program", "I cant", "port" and "access it" more further? [10:41] lotuspsychje: unfortunately won’t boot with acpi=off for some reason. [10:41] luc4: thats weird [10:42] lotuspsychje: tried 2 times [10:42] luc4: maybe try 14.04? === ubuntu is now known as Guest44479 [10:42] lotuspsychje: no way, I’ll not format this pc, it would mean days to set it up again. [10:43] luc4: ok like you wish [10:44] luc4: perhaps you can upgrade to 15.10 when it comes out, better luck there maybe [10:44] lotuspsychje: I don't know if i'm a little uncomfortable using this boot repair tool as it might be touching system files rather than just the linux boot files, which are on a separate partition anyway [10:44] lotuspsychje: I always keep up to date so I’ll surely do when released. [10:44] luc4: wich graphics card did you have? [10:44] lotuspsychje: nvidia [10:45] help [10:45] luc4: wich one [10:45] !ask | Guest44479 [10:45] Guest44479: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [10:45] lmmx: i never play with grub recovery or dualboot, so wont assist you there sorry [10:45] lotuspsychje: gk208m [10:46] lotuspsychje: fair enough [10:46] luc4: is that an optimus? [10:46] Excuse me bekks, I am a beginner, tell me please, let's say for example I want to connect with firefox to the internet, and the Firefox can't connect because the ports for it are closed, and it worked ok immediately befor I applied the rules from the link, is there any way to see in real time exactly what ports need the program which I am trying to connect, when i open that program please ? [10:46] fungisilmk: Whats the EXACT message you get from firefox? [10:47] fungisilmk: you should have less restrictive rules... you probably don't need to block all outgoing stuff [10:47] lotuspsychje: sorry, don’t even know what that is. [10:47] sorry bekks, it was only an example, I can tell you that the program which I am trying to use, worked well before I was applying those rules [10:48] fungisilmk: Be more specific then and answer my questions from above. [10:48] luc4: if your card has optimus technology supported, you need nvidia-prime to be installed [10:49] is not any way to look in the console(terminal) in that way I am accessing the program to see to what port is trying to use, and open that port? [10:49] lmmx, I've used boot repair many times without failure, however how it behaves with new uefi boot I have no experience with ,but it doesn't miss with the regular mbr [10:49] fungisilmk: Seems like you dont want to answer my questions. [10:49] lotuspsychje: but is this related to no trackpad/keyboard? [10:49] bekks, sorry, firefox was only an example, I am talking about a program which I wouldn't like to say it's name in here, is it possible to help me in that way? [10:50] BluesKaj: yeah that's part of my concern [10:50] luc4: this could be related to acpi or hibernate issues yes [10:50] luc4: not saying its the case [10:50] bekks, tell me please, is not any way to look in the console(terminal) in that way I am accessing the program to see to what port is trying to use, and open that port? [10:50] fungisilmk: Support (at least fro my side) doesnt work like that - if you dont wabt to provide information, I'm not providing help. Good luck. [10:50] lotuspsychje: of course [10:50] lotuspsychje: I’ll have a look [10:51] luc4: sudo lshw -C video can show usefull stuff [10:51] luc4: chipset and driver= [10:51] lmmx: idle for EriC^^ he's our uefi expert :p [10:52] ben64 , tell me please, is not any way to look in the console(terminal) in that way I am accessing the program to see to what port is trying to use, and open that port? [10:52] lotuspsychje: should I see anything related to this optimus thing? [10:52] fungisilmk: read what bekks said [10:52] luc4: no, can you tell me chipset at top ill look it up for you [10:53] ok, I understand, thank you very much. [10:53] lotuspsychje: oh god I went ahead with the boot-repair already :') but appreciate it [10:53] lotuspsychje: gk208m? [10:53] luc4: GeForce GT 730M? [10:53] lotuspsychje: GT 740M [10:54] luc4: yes its optimus, so check if you installed nvidia-prime and enable performance mode in nvidia-settings [10:54] !info nvidia-prime | luc4 [10:54] luc4: nvidia-prime (source: nvidia-prime): Tools to enable NVIDIA's Prime.

[10:55] quit [10:55] for the record I left the "repair windows boot files" ticked, and since it didn't find any errors in it it didn't interfere with them anyway apparently [10:56] lotuspsychje: even when using nouveau [10:56] luc4: yes [10:57] luc4: in some cases it might be already installed [10:57] luc4: if thats the case just doublecheck if you have performance mode enabled in nvidia-settings [10:57] yayyyyyyayayayayay :-) thank you all xx [10:57] lotuspsychje: should I just install that package? Or should I set it up somehow? [10:57] lotuspsychje: ah ok [10:57] luc4: install [10:57] lmmx: worked? [10:58] lmmx, let us know if your boot reapir works with uefi boot. I'm curious [10:58] yeah usefull [10:58] repair even [10:58] yep yep :-D ooh reminds me I'll put the firmware update on my to-do list [10:59] lmmx: keep in mind that can result in data-loss [10:59] BluesKaj: er, will try and check that now.. [10:59] lmmx, thanks [10:59] lmmx: so after firmware best reinstall everything on ssd [10:59] lotuspsychje: yeah, will have to backup [11:00] lotuspsychje: I just opened nvidia-settings but I see nothing related to performance mode... [11:00] lol I have a grand total of 4 Windows boot related grub entries now... [11:00] luc4: sure you have nvidia-prime installed? [11:00] lotuspsychje: yes, I see it installed some kernel module… maybe I should reboot? [11:01] luc4: yeah could try [11:02] BluesKaj: yes, "Windows 8 UEFI Boot Loader" is now a grub entry, actually passes through to Windows more smoothly than it did before :-) as far as I know UEFI was supported about a year ago though [11:02] lmmx: tnx for feedback [11:02] Hello everyone [11:03] Knight80: what can we do for you mate? [11:03] Well, I'm trying to make Miraclecast work [11:03] lmmx, thanks again, maybe I'll upgrade my boot-repair version if it's available [11:03] Do you know of Miraclecast? [11:04] lotuspsychje: “Message PRIME: is it supported? no” [11:04] I'm trying to send my Ubuntu screen to my smart tv [11:04] sweet sweet Linux [11:04] luc4: when are you getting that? [11:04] lmmx: time to loose win8 now lol [11:04] lotuspsychje: running nvidia-settings [11:05] luc4: cant find performance mode in there? [11:05] lotuspsychje: http://askubuntu.com/questions/412452/getting-hybrid-graphics-to-work-nvidia-prime-gt650m [11:05] lotuspsychje: that item is missing [11:06] luc4: maybe youl need another driver to enable [11:06] luc4: like 331 or 334 or whatever [11:06] lotuspsychje: lol I wish.. much as I'd like not to, do require the occassional use of MS software for work :'( [11:06] lotuspsychje: maybe the binary, but I won’t use that. Every time I tried to enable that I made a mess. [11:07] luc4: might be because you havent installed optimis before [11:07] optimus [11:07] Do you know something about Miracast? [11:07] luc4: ive seen users succesfully use binary + optimus [11:08] lotuspsychje: ok, probably better to give up, I can’t risk, I need this pc to work. Thanks anyway for your time. [11:08] luc4: ok mate [11:09] lotuspsychje: unfortunately 15.04 created some mess here, but not sure if 14.10 was working properly in this or not [11:10] lotuspsychje: I can’t even have proper audio… better to keep it like this and hope something changes in 15.10. [11:10] luc4: non lts upgrades can result to bad leftovers in some cases [11:10] luc4: thats why i suggest LTS [11:10] lotuspsychje: this is a fresh install [11:10] ok [11:11] luc4: its your choice mate :p [11:11] lotuspsychje: I could even install 13.04, but it does not make sense. [11:11] hello everyone, I have this problem with my display that there are rows of shadowy patches along the lower edge; http://is.gd/vO2c7d it's better visible on the picture if you reduce its size [11:11] can I remedy this in any way? [11:11] luc4: alot of users are hardcode and report 15.04 bugs to make it work properly also [11:12] luc4: 13.04 is eol by now [11:12] 14.10 is eol [11:12] lotuspsychje: packages are old enough with 15.04 for me, using something older is a mess. [11:13] luc4: like i say, its your choice to use, no sweat [11:13] Hi, I can ask a question about my touchpad [11:13] ?

[12:35] ShaolinMonk, that could very well be a hardware issue, i.e. failing gpu [12:35] Shaolin Monks are cool [12:35] slan: ok, type sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf [12:36] test? try alternate themes, wallpapers. if it persists, suspect your hardware [12:36] remove your username next to the autologin, and check what it says for the greeter [12:36] test [12:36] EriC^^: how do i save in nano?

Happily, they replaced it. It happens. [12:40] slan: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm , it's worth a shot [12:40] Hmm, I installed TLP [12:40] Let's see whether it's as good as they say.

[12:45] I'm currently doing 'screen irc3 config.ini' but how can I sort it out so it automatically creates a background process everytime I reboot? [12:45] xStark, yes, right. just wondering if it is anything that required a reasonable effort [12:45] to fix [12:45] yes. the screen flickered a couple of more times then usual before settling at logon screen but it was there alright [12:46] or what do i know, i have had it at auto-login before, maube the flickering is normal, it doesn't bother me that much [12:46] i seldom shut down my cp [12:48] EriC^^: thank you very much for the support.

Are these images on http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ 14.04 or 14.04.3 ? [13:02] 14.04.3 is the current release. [13:02] I know, but are these images built with the 3rd point release? Or are these 14.04 without any point releases?

[13:05] ok i looked the executable does exist despite what the error says so is there a bad path somewhere [13:06] reddeath68: where's the executable located? [13:06] bubebitzemann, the version is 14.04. it appears that point releases are not available [13:06] reddeath68: exe on linux [13:07] usr/lib/jvm/java-9-oracle/lib/jexec [13:07] bubebitzemann: it's going to be a point release, cause it's downloaded online so you'll end up with the latest packages [13:07] cfhowlett: Oh, but I assume the netinstaller will download the latest point release within the install process? [13:07] reddeath68: that's not in the usual $PATH [13:07] EriC^^: ^ Yeah [13:07] bubebitzemann, never used it, can't say. [13:07] wierd thats where it installed too [13:08] reddeath68: you installed it manually?

When i use a shell as the same user as the web app it works, but the web app is prompted for a password. [13:27] i tracked the problem down to not having an ssh-agent running in the shell opened by the web app and did this: [13:27] https://dpaste.de/1nX5 [13:27] However $SSH_AGENT_PID and $SSH_AUTH_SOCK are empty in the resulting agent-profile.

I really liked it. I remember finding virtual machine to be a lot slower. [14:30] *virtual box to be a lot slower [14:30] vmware is quite horrible, it makes stupid asumptions about systems [14:30] also they are violating the gpl [14:30] ha really?

I'll try virtual box. [14:32] bazhang: thanks [14:33] unless you have good reasons not to, use kvm/qemu [14:33] hamsterpower: I'm perfectly confident with virtualbox, and I cant say that I noticed the vms to be slow at all. === sergio_ is now known as Guest5888 [14:54] any reason gnome-system-tools would already be installed but system-config-users is not available? === MrSaddist is now known as WorkShoe [14:56] imthenachoman, the users & groups tool is indeed not installed standard, install gnome-system-tools for that.

[15:47] did you set it to dual boot or to wipe out the hard drive? [15:48] Yes, I set up a dual boot, boot right [15:49] Kirito inside windows (wubi) or on its own partition? === Gambit_ is now known as Guest11116 [15:50] how to dual boot with windows 10 without uisng grub? [15:50] grub is kind of the best way to go... [15:51] krito, are you seeing grub when you boot? [15:51] I was 15 years old, I was 2 years ago to recognize Ubuntu, I have tried to install the machine, but because after the installation can not normally boot and give up, now, in 2015, I installed Ubuntu, and debug the graphics card, hard drive without any problem, [15:52] I am a Chinese, English is not very good, with the translation software [15:52] Kirito /j #ubuntu-cn [15:53] There is no one in the Chinese channel. [15:54] Thank you, ys. [15:54] there are 70 people in the chinese channel [15:54] and iglesias2994 [15:54] Kirito, your English seems fine to me, just try to ask your question [15:54] But no one replied to my question, [15:55] I use the software, I learned English with no study [15:55] no i need it without the grub [15:56] i did it in my friend's laptop [15:56] but not able to figure out a way in mine [15:57] I also use the notebook, I want to know what brand of computer [15:57] I use DELL [15:57] same [15:58] Why did you choose DELL? I chose DELL's reason is the configuration and good after-sales service [15:59] I'm going to sleep, good night. [16:02] uhmm, wth was he here for anyway [16:02] Yes, the United States over there now is noon, right? [16:02] not properly an ubuntu issue, but libreoffice don't print àòù [16:02] èì [16:02] characters like that [16:03] krabador, yes in the eastern time zone [16:03] oops Kirito [16:04] I'm gone, go to bed, and have a class tomorrow. [16:05] I must go. [16:08] Oh, I think I'm losing sleep, [16:08] Kirito the trick is: closing your eyes [16:09] Is there anyone watching NICONICO? [16:09] !ot | Kirito [16:09] Kirito: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [16:09] I can't sleep with excitement. [16:12] MonkeyDust, how old are you [16:12] Kirito, please take the chit chat elsewhere [16:13] Oh, I know. [16:17] /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER zorba64 sfbllyfbihiy [16:18] zorba64, that should be typed into the server box, not the chat [16:18] better change your password, zorba64 [16:19] I WAS JUST GONNA SAY THAT [16:19] dang, sorry, hit caps by accident === ignacio is now known as Calibri === Calibri is now known as i5o [16:28] how do I import the home pages from my old profile? I had several tabs [16:28] to firefox I mean [16:30] What's a good DE like Gnome or KDE but without a compositor? [16:30] Compiz=laggy mouse [16:31] OpenBox or xFace [16:33] I'd like to receive system email on my system sent by anacron. I read that I would need to install exim4. Installing that package would remove postfix. What is the way to go here? [16:34] Hi, will running Nvidia 352.41 over 355.11 mean its more stable? I have a 980 Ti. Since I dualboot for games, would be it better for normal stuff in Ubuntu, to use 352.41? [16:34] vooze: The 980 Ti seems to be a newer model, so I would use the newest stable driver for that. It might have better support for power saving [16:35] irrep: yeah okay. I just got a weird problem last night, when it after idling in maybe 5 times, was just frozen [16:36] I figured it was a GPU thing. [16:36] 5 hours ** [16:36] @Vooze : Im currently testing the 346,96 prop driver with my 980 ti, so far so good. [16:36] bonaqua: did you build it yourself? I'm using ubuntu graphics PPA. [16:37] Vooze: Running it straight out of the box from the ubuntu ppa [16:37] bonaqua: yeah okay :) i'll do some experimenting :) === borkur is now known as borkurg [16:38] I noticed Windows got 358.something. Is it normal that Linux gets driver much later? [16:38] Vooze: I do believe nvidia has several updates for the 980ti on the website [16:38] Vooze: However, havent tested them yet. [16:39] How do I set my monitor to 144hz refresh rate? [16:39] rory, [16:40] bonaqua: If i got to nvidia, i get this: http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/90279/en-us [16:40] go * [16:41] https://disconnect.me/ << is there something similar for linux? [16:43] umpfred: just use that in your browser :) Linux does not spy like that. [16:44] i think i have to install it, and its wondows and mac only [16:45] umpfred: why do you have to install it? [16:45] umpfred: if there is a browser extention, you can install that. But if it has to be installed natively, it will not work without explicit Linux support [16:46] vooze: I gathered that it is a VPN service with anonymization stuff built in [16:46] to test it [16:46] <[n0mad]> that's what i read irrep [16:46] use a VPN + Linux and you are fine. [16:46] <[n0mad]> umpfred: there's a number of browser extensions you can install that do the same thing [16:46] just disconnect in your browser though. [16:47] <[n0mad]> minus the vpn [16:47] disconnect.me has both firefox + chrome addon. [16:47] But there should be various VPN possibilites, though [16:47] or just use Tor I guess [16:48] seeing as you have a little problem figuring this out, I would say a VPN is enough for you. [16:49] irrep: also, the VPN option with disconnect.me is 5$. Just buy a VPN somewhere else and you are fine :) [16:50] None of the scripts in /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/ are running [16:52] What do I need to do in order to get them to run? [16:55] hello, i am having problem with vino, can't connect. the 'connecting' window just stay forever [16:56] so how does one reboot a ubuntu server? halt, shutdown, reboot, etc all give me a command not found and a message about needing to install either upstart or molly-guard, whatever the hell those are -- what is the proper way to reboot a fresh install? also, why is reboot not installed by default on a CLI only server? [16:56] how do i change my registered password for my nick? [16:57] mlvmhn, in #freenode please [16:58] <[n0mad]> ozy: i just sudo shutdown -r now on my server [16:58] k thx [16:59] $ sudo shutdown -r [16:59] sudo: shutdown: command not found [17:00] if I do it without sudo , I get told to install upstart or molly-guard, and there is no indication why, or what they are [17:01] what keys will reboot my desktop? [17:03] ozy, seems like /sbin/ is not in your environment path , shutdown is in /sbin/shutdown [17:03] mlvmhn, hold down alt+prtscn while typing REISUB [17:03] k, thx where cn i find this info elsewhere? [17:04] mlvmhn, google [17:04] :) [17:04] cant figure out why my system hangs :( [17:05] it's in PATH for root, but shutdown is not in there [17:05] mlvmhn, perhaps sudo reboot [17:06] is not 4 GB RAM enough for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS? [17:08] hi , I have problem enabling KVM guest for network [17:08] i use virtual machine manager. [17:09] my KVM guest should be accessible from same network. I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Networking but can't get it right [17:09] KVM sucks [17:10] anyone help me with an email problem on my phone? I have a free mail.com account which with Thunderbird on Linux allows me to use it for IMAP, but the mail clients on my phone don't seem to work at a… [17:10] …ll. [17:10] KVM is great. Your networking sucks [17:11] ozy, btw to shutdown, the command is "sudo shutdown -h now" [17:11] OerHeks, only when that command exists/is installed [17:11] which is the problem [17:11] it's not [17:12] for some reason the docs on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VividUpgrades don't appear to work at a fundamental level ;-) [17:12] ozy, did you try ? [17:12] yup -- it's in the scrollback not far back ;-) [17:13] Hello everybody [17:13] my ubuntu system lags as hell. where should i check? [17:13] no, you forgot 'now [17:14] compdoc, oracle virtual box is comprehensive for networking type. KVM is not [17:14] OerHeks, that makes 0 difference when the error message is that shutdown doesnt exist as a command [17:14] i can pass it any arguments you want, and it will not change anything [17:14] How can I download the software on this website? ----> http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~dvdhrm/openwfd/ [17:15] Bivo: is your phone running ubuntu touch? [17:15] ozy, try "whereis shutdown" [17:16] $ whereis shutdown [17:16] shutdown: /usr/share/man/man2/shutdown.2.gz [17:16] ozy /sbin/shutdown ? [17:16] linocisco, not sure what that means, but kvm is easily set up so that the guests have full access to the lan [17:16] and vice versa [17:16] ozy, echo $PATH # to see if /sbin/ is there [17:16] it's in PATH for root, but shutdown is not in there [17:17] i've already stated that ;-) [17:17] ok ozy, try extract it on /sbin/ [17:17] Hudsonkem, extract what? the man page? [17:18] ozy /usr/share/man/man2/shutdown.2.gz is the path of compacted shutdown binary i think [17:18] virtual box is better for a casual user to run on his desktop. KVM is better at running 24/7 [17:18] !find shutdown [17:18] Found: gshutdown, kshutdown, qshutdown, shutdown-at-night, wmshutdown [17:19] ozy: which ubunu are you using? 14.04? [17:20] I installed 14.04, but it did not have a new enough python for what I wanted, so I updated to 15.04, but I can't seem to even reboot the host, so it appears that the upgrade path on the canonical site is incorrect [17:20] hmm does anybody have 15.04 and can type dpkg -S /sbin/shutdown ? [17:20] oh i see ozy, never read about, "upgrade to another version may cause many problems"? [17:20] dpkg -S /sbin/shutdown [17:20] sysvinit: /sbin/shutdown [17:20] !info upstart [17:20] upstart (source: upstart): event-based init daemon - essential binaries. In component main, is optional.

[17:21] #hamradio [17:22] eh, i'm just installing a fresh version. I assumed since it was documented and was like 3 commands, and I got no errors running them on a fresh 14.04 install that it might actually work ;-) [17:22] no need to go through that much headache to be the first one to test something on the canonical docs page [17:25] compdoc, here is my host interface config.http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12755100/. but KVM guest can connect only to 192.168.1.1. not actual one which is 192.168.1.20 [17:25] ozy. maybe its work with u? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1695721 [17:26] compdoc, but from host KVM, I can ping and ssh to Guest KVM successfully [17:27] compdoc, here http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12755164/ is ifconfig on host === tinyhippo is now known as cowconfirmer [17:35] Hi.

What's the best way to upgrade Mesa video driver to latest version? tried xorg-edgers PPA but didn't work. stuck on Mesa 10.1.3 [17:37] d30: The best way is asking the Trisquel support.

[19:43] lol [19:43] using the kernel from mainline is not a good move though if you want to keep in support [19:43] i have had lots lotuspsychje :) [19:43] hello . ubuntu 15.04 sqlcihper problem. I have installed libsqlcipher-dev and i have /usr/include/sqlcipher/sqlite3.h but while trying to compile a c source code i have this fatal error: /sqlcipher/sqlite3.h: No such file or directory [19:43] 1 [19:43] is this ubuntu or c problem ? [19:43] ikonia: it helps with my networks card I believe [19:43] (the 4.0 part) [19:44] wakeatnight: what card ? [19:44] built into this MSI 97ac board [19:44] what card though ? [19:44] wakeatnight: sudo lshw -C network [19:45] Intel Wireless 7260 [19:45] I doubt that needs the mainline 4.0 kernel [19:45] what about my GTK issue though? [19:45] the intel 7x series is well supported in the standard ubuntu kernel [19:45] guys is this a ubuntu package problem or not ? [19:46] mamed: how would that be an ubuntu package problem ? [19:46] wakeatnight: logout and login to unity, see if you have same issue there [19:47] wakeatnight: might a problem specific to openbox perhaps? [19:47] lotuspsychje: can't do taht right now :/ [19:47] no, worked with Ubuntu GNOME 15.04 [19:47] openbox..... [19:47] hm? [19:47] where you not the guy who does "startx" eery tie [19:47] memed how looks the header #include or ? [19:47] to start his desktop [19:47] you where in with a different problem the other day [19:47] not anymore :) [19:47] but that was you ? [19:47] using lightdm now [19:48] yes could be [19:48] wakeatnight: you where looking for gnome-keyring-manager help ? [19:48] as I recall ? [19:48] yes! [19:48] it's still not working properly by the way [19:48] yes, your machine was a total mess [19:49] security [19:49] how do you mean? [19:49] and you don't seem to know how to manage it, [19:49] I remember your machine now [19:49] theloniouscell: can we help you? [19:49] ikonia: it wasn't a "total mess" [19:50] it is [19:50] and you're making it worse by how you try to configure it [19:50] how do you mean? [19:50] your kernel is a great example of that [19:50] and what about it is a mess? [19:50] you've randomly installed a totally different kernel for no real reason [19:50] so vreverting to 3.19 will solve the keyring issue/GTK? [19:51] no idea, your machine is a mess [19:51] I don't know what else you've done to it, [19:51] nothing [19:51] fresh install [19:51] I disagree [19:51] disagreeing with a fresh install? [19:51] anyways [19:52] this is getting nowhere :) [19:52] disagreeing you know what you've done/changed [19:52] nope, it's not [19:52] so, I am reverting to ubuntu standard kernel now [19:52] up to you what you do [19:52] I'm not going to take this forward, someone else may want to though [19:53] I believe your machine is a mess, and you're casuing more problems with how you try to manage it [19:53] you have said that already [19:53] no need to repeat [19:54] Hello [19:54] ishwon: welcome, how can we assist you? [19:55] Checking by the Ubuntu community on IRC. I visited ubuntu-africa but it seems very quiet there. [19:55] hi ishwon [19:55] ishwon: looking for something specific on the community? [19:55] Hi wakeatnight :) [19:56] wakeatnight: make your life easy and fresh install 14.04.3 LTS :p [19:56] lotuspsychje: I will enter Unity later and see if the problem still persits [19:56] Just trying to find some Ubuntu users in the region. I'm from Mauritius. [19:56] enter unity != fresh install [19:56] Yeah, I'm running Ubuntu GNOME 14.04.03 ;-) [19:56] I am not sure about LTS, isn't it mostly outdated software (sorry if silly question)? [19:57] Nah, I prefer LTS. [19:57] !latest | wakeatnight [19:57] wakeatnight: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. [19:57] Precisely, it's more stable than the other releases. [19:57] ishwon: not sure if mauritius have own channel here try !alis perhaps? [19:57] ikonia: I will do a fresh install at the latest when 15.10 comes out (if I will install it) [19:58] maybe I should go LTS [19:58] lotuspsychje: nope. it doesn't. i actually started the Ubuntu Mauritius LoCo but we never managed to get enough people contributing and have an IRC channel. [19:59] We're just a few like-minded geeks here. [19:59] ikonia , since i have the the file in /usr/include/sqlcipher/sqlite3.h [20:00] mamed: how is this an ubuntu problem ? [20:01] so how cant gcc find the file in the given path [20:01] the file does exist [20:01] again, how is this an ubuntu problem [20:02] this is configuring your compiler and linker correctly either manually or using the automake tools or something like that [20:04] mamed how it looks like the header ? === Blaster is now known as Guest47487 [20:22] hi everyone [20:23] cineestitu: welcome, how can we assist you?

[20:57] well, I'm getting dragged away by wife and kid, I"ll try again on monday. thanks for the attention [20:57] Failing that (no one's talkijng!) how possible is it to regress to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS from where I am now? [20:57] Emby-fan: you cant downgrade, fresh install instead [20:57] Thought you might say that :( [20:58] Emby-fan backup first [20:58] Just have to fix the problem. I guess I won't be watching anything any time soon! [20:59] Nothing worth backing up, all my stuff is cloud based, so no probs there - just went native from Windows so I knew there'd be no going back from it once I startyed!

[21:06] donnygash00: i dont want to edit xml files i want a gui that lets me choose form hundreds of icons or something?

If I just click 'upgrade' in the Update Manager, I'm wondering if I'm going to have a lot of leftover cruft and such from the old OS. I'd like to do a totally fresh install on a clean, reformatted partition, but I must be absolutely certain not to wipe out some Windows 7 boots I have on this machine. Is there... [21:56] ...some safe way to do a fresh install that won't wipe the windows OSes? [21:57] fresh install is a silly Windows things [21:57] hades08: it seems i needed to mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys and then chroot /mnt and then update-grub [21:57] jaith, sure, if you do a fresh install, "replace existing ubuntu" is an option [21:57] now let's see if it works (jerkey reboots) [21:58] jerkey: if you have grub already installed it shold [21:58] OerHeks: does this mean I need to download an ISO image and burn an DVD or something? Also, it's EXTREMELY important that the install doesn't mess with any other disk partitions. E.g., I don't want it claiming some other disk for swap space or something.

[22:07] And the other two are Ubuntu 32-bit and Ubuntu 64-bit. I'd like to get rid of the 32-bit and upgrade the 64-bit and make that the default boot but retain the windows boot options. It was such a chore to get Protools running properly. [22:07] OerHeks: thank you [22:09] no luck [22:09] Hi guys, im having an issue identical to this, anyone able to help with this? http://nerdanswer.com/answer.php?q=277343 [22:09] I dont know how common this issue is with screens, but it was nice to see somoene else with it [22:10] But sadly no answers yet [22:11] Lexicade, You're better describing your issue to the channel a link from 2013 is not to your benefit. [22:11] Its my issue to the T [22:11] it rarely is, but this is your reality [22:12] No, it actually is. [22:12] I can explain to you my issue, but it will look like a copy and paste [22:14] danielle331: sure you have no leftovers in sources.list? [22:15] oi [22:21] now after "* Starting cups-browsed..." it says "* Stopping Samba Auto-reload Integration" and just sits there forever. [22:27] hello, how can install from tarball iagno???

Also, does the command "shred" work on ext4 or is it pointless? [22:58] 14.04? and ext4 is great. shred works but it still is pointless [22:59] hello I am trying to config conky this way: http://pastebin.com/MUCsM17A but for the power driver I get overlapping numbers : http://postimg.org/image/6ql0bzo35/ [22:59] Hi there, I'm having an issue in ubuntu 14.04 64-bit where the hardware switch for WIFI is shut off after restarting the computer or resuming from suspend. Tried googling it and couldn't find anything. [23:00] Ben64: sorry i meant 14.04.3. So shred is pointless? Is there some other way to make sure old sensitive files are thoroughly obliterated? rm doesn't wipe contents, just changes allocation table [23:00] jaith: oh i thought you meant to run it on a whole drive [23:01] Ben64: I don't see any control to eject [23:01] jesuslovesyouthi: its right there when you hit "open disc" next to /dev/sr0 [23:02] Ben64: that sounds really time consuming but no I just wanted to shred sensitive files before I reformat hard drive. I *would* like a command that can dependably wipe an entire drive, though. I always worry about sensitive credentials and info on old hard drives when I retire them (or donate to friends) [23:02] jaith: use dd to fill the drive with 0s [23:02] Ben64: nice. thanks. [23:03] Ben64: No it won't eject. Also, I notice something. It used to launch vlc automatically when I would insert a dvd. Now it does not but it mounts the disc (seen in launcher bar) and if I click that icon I get a directory opening [23:05] hi, i'm currently upgrading my system via the command line... it's been saying "Preparing to unpack...." and "Unpacking...." for the past 30 minutes with each package... is there a way i can make a guess as to how much time I have left? like is there a hidden folder with the downloaded files I can list? [23:05] jesuslovesyouthi: if it wont eject it might have the wrong device there [23:06] ie where are the packages saved when downloaded? [23:06] Ben64: What else could I try? Or, how can I find out what the right path would be? [23:06] tomasm-: as long as it's moving, I would just wait for it to finish [23:06] jesuslovesyouthi: what is the output of "ls -l /dev/sr*" [23:07] tomasm-, This is a distro upgrade right, it takes a little while, if it's running stopping it is not a good idea. [23:07] I can check, in the meantime, I see this line in the output of mount (if it helps any) /dev/sr0 on /media/shine/THE_LIFE_OF_DAVID_GALE type udf (ro,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,umask=0077,uhelper=udisks2) [23:08] jesuslovesyouthi: ok so it is sr0, did you run the css installer script [23:08] yeah i was just thinking because I am at a bookstore 3 hours from home. would be nice to get going and i only have 30 mins of battery left.but I'd also like to download some extra packages so maybe it's worth waiting. [23:08] tomasm-: incidentally, the packages are stored in /var/cache/apt/archives/, but that may not tell you what you're after [23:08] Ben64: [23:08] ~$ ls -l /dev/sr* [23:08] brw-rw----+ 1 root cdrom 11, 0 Oct 11 15:57 /dev/sr0 [23:08] tomasm-: don't run upgrades at a bookstore? [23:09] Hi there, I'm having an issue in ubuntu 14.04 64-bit where the hardware switch for WIFI is shut off after restarting the computer or resuming from suspend. Tried googling it and couldn't find anything. [23:09] i only have a prepaid mobile interwebz and i dont want to use it all up with the upgrading [23:09] Ben64: Do you mean libdvdread4 [23:09] ? [23:09] jesuslovesyouthi: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh [23:10] Ben64: yes [23:10] jesuslovesyouthi: try running "mplayer --dvd-device=/dev/sr0 dvd://" you may need to install mplayer2 [23:10] and installed restricted extras before that. (when I installed restricted extras I was given a dialog saying I had to remove some other codec packeage before it could be installe - then it froze after I hit ok [23:11] Ben64: I'll try thtat [23:11] it would be nice with the long upgrade process if I could tell it to download other packages, but i get an issue with file locks.... I just want them downloaded to install offline later. is this possible? [23:12] tomasm-: man apt-get [23:13] tomasm-, I would find a fast download, once it's downloaded and installing the net does not matter, offline can be a hassle, you have to update it [23:14] Ben64: Installed mplayer2 and ran the command. DVD doesn't play but output may be useful. Do you know what this means? http://paste.ubuntu.com/12759438/ [23:15] jesuslovesyouthi: bad dvd? [23:19] sigh [23:19] Ben64: thanks man [23:20] jesuslovesyouthi: try just playing the VOB files [23:21] Ben64: why would there be an "install.exe" file on this disc? [23:22] jesuslovesyouthi: who knows [23:22] windows installers are associated with programs. Program for what? [23:22] wierd [23:22] and it's a disc from the library [23:22] aright man. thx [23:23] hello [23:24] hi again [23:24] am on Ubuntu 14.04.3 now [23:25] there is no systemd there though as it was added in 15.04 (as far as I understand) [23:25] what would be the simplest way to get my sudo-ess poweroff, reboot, suspend commands back? [23:25] thanks [23:27] wakeatnight, desktop? These from a dropdown or pop-up, more context would help me. [23:27] no, from openbox. sorry wileee [23:27] from the right-click menu [23:27] ah, I suspected such cool, carry on [23:27] I used Ubuntu 15.04 before and had those from systemd === Blaster is now known as Guest24719 [23:28] wakeatnight, I like openbox just have not messed with it for awhile. [23:28] oh ok [23:28] but the question is more generic [23:28] someone will know I suspect ;) [23:29] is that something that upstart takes care of? [23:29] ok thank you anyway :) [23:29] I'd have to google any of thi9s [23:29] I am doing that now [23:30] basically, you run visudo and allow yourself to execute similiar commands without sudo [23:30] before I change something around there, I thought I ask first [23:31] no password is not recommended here [23:31] no wileee, it's just for those 3 commands [23:31] anything else will still require a password [23:31] wakeatnight, link? [23:31] http://askubuntu.com/questions/168879/shutdown-from-terminal-without-entering-password [23:34] wakeatnight, Your choice in the end, not something I need so would not use personally. [23:35] ok [23:36] wakeatnight, we see users clearing the whole OS with visudo no password here occasionally, that was the comment basis. ;) [23:36] ah I see [23:36] well [23:37] was not meaning to ;) [23:37] that looks basically okay, but I'm a amateur in the end [23:37] I think I go with this one quit [Ping timeout: 240 [23:37] seconds] [23:37] oops [23:37] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers#Shutting_Down_From_The_Console_Without_A_Password [23:39] wakeatnight, Yeah a regular wiki is good. === ghost_ is now known as ghost- [23:42] Is there some way to set the URL to the gpg public key for my apt mirror when I'm setting it as the d-i mirror in a preseed file? [23:57] How do I force the server to discard and reissue identity certificates for connecting via ssh.... I can remote desktop in but it will not allow me to ssh into the server when I want to use cli [23:58] TLC-RudeViper, cant you enable password logins for ssh? [23:59] TLC-RudeViper: i think you need to run ssh-copy-id from the client
