[01:09] !ufw [01:09] Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo [01:10] !vino [01:12] Didac, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers some vino info here, no history with it here.

I've gone from ubuntu15 (installed on a windows NFTS partition, I know, but it still worked) > apt-get kubunu-desktop > wiped because of NFTS > kubuntu 14 and realized I didn't like it, no problems > kernel panic'd 3x after installation of k15, some I partitioned in windows (exFAT format) and then one I left as an unall [02:20] ocated space and went from there. None worked. > ubuntu 15, same kernel panic. [02:20] wileee i dont see anything in the bottum right corner [02:22] It's starting init: /bin/sh exists but couldn't execute it (error -8), kernel panic - not syncing: no init found [02:22] hi === brayden_ is now known as Blaster [02:22] I've just started on linux so I have no idea how to fix this. [02:23] did you md5sum you .iso? and the usb? [02:23] could start by abandoning ntfs, but that's like my opinion, man [02:23] !md5sum [02:23] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [02:24] as the default filesystem for ubuntu is ext4, yeah, ntfs was --- ill-advised [02:24] kunbuntu 15 uses SHA256 and I didn't exactly know how to check that, I forgot about MD5suming ubuntu [02:24] I doubt the veracity of that as a possibility until I see supporting evidence, I can't even execute a binary on ntfs in ubuntu, so. [02:24] I redid one of them in ext4 [02:24] OK so did your sha256 check out? [02:25] Idkidks: you could try an older kernel in grub, i think to get grub options you have to press "SHIFT" (if i'm not wrong), then, chose "mote options" and select an older kernel [02:25] I don't know how to check SHA256 exactly [02:25] ... [02:25] so no idea that's why I tried ubuntu [02:25] press "SHIFT" *at boot* ... [02:25] and I redownloaded kubuntu just in case. [02:26] okay I' [02:26] I'll try that [02:26] read the md5sum wiki [02:27] All that shows up is ubuntu, advanced options for ubuntu, 2 memtests, and my win8 install. [02:27] I'll check my md5 right now [02:28] Idkidks: advanced option > older kernel [02:28] I don't see an older kernel option but I see upstart, recovery mode, and one that just looks like the default [02:30] Idkidks: see in: recovery mode, what's in there [02:30] kernel panic again. [02:30] same error. [02:31] hi [02:31] Okay the md5sum is fine. === MiniMint is now known as vanes [02:32] can someone give me some guidance in how to download/mirror a relatively simple website? [02:32] Idkidks: oh! sry, you can chose kernel versions at first, i meant press SHIFT and kernels shoud be there if you had more than one installed [02:33] What's the difference between desktop-amd and desktop-i386. I assume i386 is an older legacy version or something? Pls don't burn at stake [02:33] 32 bit [02:33] amd/64 = 64 bit [02:33] I don't believe I have any other kernels installed [02:34] Okay so a 2450m would be amd64 right? [02:34] Sandy Bridge i5 [02:34] what the heck is a 2450m?

[02:38] when I did the first install yes. [02:39] But kubuntu 14 worked fine by booting in [02:39] and that's where your problems began. [02:39] Live USB [02:39] After that though. Yes.

Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. [04:49] lxde I think [04:49] ycon_: so they each use different WMs. [04:49] I'm pretty used to Ubuntu- so would I see many differences in LXDE? [04:51] ycon_: Short answer, yes .. Only unity is unity . [04:51] somsip, What do you mean by using differnt VMs? [04:52] ycon_: Window Managers - WMs not VMs [04:52] Cool. Am I going to have any compatibility issues with 15.04? I mainly use it for webdev, python/django, bit of image editing (GIMP)? [04:52] I think you should be able to easily switch using "sudo apt-get lubuntu-desktop" so you can test em out. [04:53] ycon_: unlikely in a VM. Check some screenshots and see what would suit you, but LXDE is the lightest flavour as already pointed out [04:53] Idkidks, so it's not a re-install? Wow [04:54] Yeah they're pretty similar, only default programs change and the looks. I'm a noob though, but I did it on ubuntu 15 to kubuntu 15 just like 2 days ago.

[05:24] Idkidks: ycon_ Keep in mind that kubuntu is a very heavy desktop environment .

I just did a fresh install of Lubuntu. Love it. When I follow guides etc- I'd just follow the same ones as Ubuntu right? [05:27] how does one save a bootable backup onto an external drive, and install it on a system? [05:27] I'd check beforehand, but I'd assume it's mostly the same. [05:28] Hmm I spoke too soon- Wmware tools cant find the location of the "gcc program". What does that mean? [05:28] HD 3000 is a bit better than a 5450 so it's not very beefy, but it drives 1366x768 kubuntu fine [05:29] No idea, am noob :P [05:32] ycon_: Depends, really. If the guide is pertaining to Unity then just throw it out the window because it's useless. If it's terminal commands they'll be exactly the same. [05:33] LambdaComplex, yes, mostly terminal based. Only thing I have issues with is isntalling node.js [05:37] Idkidks: are you runnin' ubuntu installed in your hd ? === Blaster is now known as Guest44766 [05:41] saorry [05:41] what [05:42] I'm now running kubuntu running on my hdd yes, Original one.

I am unable to restart properly on Ubuntu Unity && Gnome [05:50] m_wynn, thanks. And also, can hexchat be installed with apt-get? [05:51] should be [05:51] If you're on 14.04 or later, which you should be [05:51] m_wynn, yep cheers. How about customizing the look of the bash? something around for that? I like the transperancy affect in mint [05:52] Yes. You should look at some terminal emulators. [05:53] My favorite is Terminator, allows you to split the terminal into vertical/horizontal pieces and I believe you can chose the transparency. [05:53] Good morning! [05:53] transparency is going to be in your terminal emulator. LXTerminal should have transparency affects. If you want to get super messy, urxvt is really lightweight and has a ton of configuration options, including a blur [05:53] to get it, simply type sudo apt-get install terminator [05:53] s/affects/effects [05:54] Anyway has anyone been experiencing the problem I have? (Unable to restart, gets stuck on black screen after BIOS boot.) [05:54] m_wynn, messy doesn't sound good ha. Arandr isn't showing my the right resoluution either. All showing except 1080. Any ideas? [05:54] Arandr should be showing everything your graphics card and monitor are capable of === silen is now known as Spiderixius [05:55] m_wynn, its showing higher than 1080, and blow it.

I think it's bad answer :) [06:48] madghost: It's not a good answer, but you tried your hardest to break your system. Like I said, you *can* theoretically recover from this, but that recovery is not an easy process. [06:48] deleting /var/lib/dpkg/info is pretty much impossible to fix [06:49] :) some one got advice on some forum :((( [06:50] so, I cant reinstall OS, how I can do ? [06:50] madghost: The nice thing is your system should still function properly (other than the package additions/removals/etc), so you can backup whatever data you have relatively easily. [06:50] Maybe there is a script out there that installs all debs? [06:51] or all the ones that you need? [06:51] How I can download all removed packages from dpkg/info ?

So I wonder about the APT errors. [08:54] PaulePanter, ubuntu.com clearly shows the supported releases. if it's not stated on that site, you should not use it.

[08:56] PaulePanter: but no matter you should not run EOL systems at all. so dont start a drama if and why that is still on that mirror but start thinking of upgrading on to a supported release or make a clean reinstall. [08:58] k1l: I know that. It’s still user unfriendly, that the users sees an error and not a warning. [08:58] PaulePanter: its not user unfriendly [08:58] PaulePanter: its your task to make sure you dont run EOL releases in the first place. [08:58] k1l: Really?

[08:59] You don’t know if it is a server error or something else.

[09:01] PaulePanter: because the repos are not shut down asap due to let the users give some time to make a clean upgrade. [09:01] PaulePanter: end of life does not mean it does not stop working, itmeans it is not supported anymore [09:01] PaulePanter: but can we please stop making drama for you blaming others now? its your task. if you dont want to upgrade often install LTS in the first place.

The answer, you should have given is: EOL releases are phased out after the EOL date. The CLI tools are currently not able to inform the user about that, so it’s a little bit confusing.

[17:43] k, thx. so I have had this problem on 14.04,14.10, 15.04, and now 15.10. I have a macbook pro with a partition with ubuntu loaded on it. [17:43] http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/enable-hibernate-ubuntu-14-04/ this looks helpful iffraff [17:43] linocisco sorry, no. [17:43] Ok teward, i was using groupadd first but read to use adduser withubunt, no prob [17:43] iffraff, ok === lonix_ is now known as lonix [17:44] so I did the logind.conf fix, and that did not help. looks like I have not enabled hibernate though, perhaps that is the issue [17:44] give it a go. [17:45] iffraff: got enough swap for hibernate? [17:46] Pa444: i would do something like this instead: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12765004/ [17:46] Pa444: create the group, create the users, then add them to the group in a separate command [17:47] Pa444: i would of course change out things accordingly for your use case ;) [17:48] great so I did sudo pm-hibernate as per the first instruction. It made the screen go black, then it came back but the keyboard and mouse were frozen so hard reboot [17:48] iffraff: got enough swap for hibernate? [17:48] well, Not sure, I made the partition from the osx side, what is the command to look at that stuff in ubuntu? [17:49] hi how to connect USB Modem to enable internet on ubuntu 14.04 server? [17:49] hello [17:49] !repeat | linocisco [17:49] linocisco: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [17:50] iffraff: if you can pastebin sudo parted -l [17:50] can anyone help me with firefox dark theme issue [17:50] teward thank you teward this worked for me... it asked for password, fullname, room no, work phone, other. so at least i now know how create it.. is there a way to cancel iot asking for some of the information [17:51] it looks like 1 gig for linux-swap [17:51] is that sufficient? [17:51] iffraff: ho much ram do you have? [17:51] 16g [17:51] iffraff: then no [17:51] I'm sensing a connection [17:51] hi [17:51] :) [17:51] iffraff: to hibernate you need at the least the same amount of swap as ram [17:51] someone in neural networks here? [17:51] perhaps I need 16g of swap [17:51] can anyone help me with streaming videos over my lan using VLC? [17:52] I don't suppose you can tell me how to increase my swap partition can you? :) [17:52] iffraff: i'd use gparted from a livecd/usb [17:52] ubuntu server to ubuntu machine plugged into my tv... the one going into my tv used to run windows 7 and streaming was fine, but since I put ubuntu on it it's very choppy [17:53] so gparted is an app I can apt-get and I would put it on a usb? livecd makes me think of the ubuntu cd. is that the case or can i just put it on a regular usb [17:55] ok, I'm doing some of my own work here :) found the page and the livecd part. thanks. I may be back if hibernate doesn't help my inital issue [17:56] Pa444: not using useradd. [17:56] erm, adduser [17:57] teward ah ok, so it's like that by default when use adduser yeah? [17:57] Pa444: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12765094/ [17:57] I added a repo to apt-get (ppa:blue-shell/sddm) following some instructions on how to install sddm on ubuntu, but I guess that repo doesn't include utopic so it failed. I think I did find what I need here: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/pm/sddm but I'm not sure how to add that...i thought if I replaced blue-shell with kubuntu_next it would work, but nope...can someone help me out? [17:57] Pa444: if you want to avoid the prompts, set it by hand. And, ignore most of the other settings (by running the lower-level useradd function) [17:57] Hi! Is there a GUI tool to calibrate/adjust screen colors [17:58] I bought a new laptop, all colors look just fine except the white is just too white [17:58] its a lenovo X1 carbon 3rd gen. [17:58] i have this weird issue, like if I use a dark theme on ubuntu, firefox gives me a issue, the selected tab is grey but it has white on the sides. [17:58] om26er: probably in your graphics card settings... [17:59] teward, there are such settings in ubuntu ? [17:59] ok teward . one question, is there a way to set it that you can delete it from every askign for room no. and maybe just the rest [18:00] !themes | pyro_serpent i'm sure you can find something that suits you here [18:00] pyro_serpent i'm sure you can find something that suits you here: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freecode.com/tags/theme - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy [18:03] what is the download manager like freedownload manager we can pause and resume unfinished download later? [18:04] linocisco try multiget [18:07] Pa444: i'm not sure i understand what you're asking? [18:07] hi there :) === InvisiblePinkUni is now known as IPU [18:08] When i add users and i get the prompts for fullname, room no, phoen no etc.. is there a place where i can edit in what they ask for, so that it never asks for room no again for example [18:08] teward [18:10] Pa444: Not to my knowledge. I never use `adduser` to add users, and I usually don't care about the directory information. ANd in cases where I do care about that, I use an LDAP server or such to handle users on a network-wide scale (between all my servers, on my network) [18:11] MonkeyDust, There isn’t a software package called “multiget” in your current software sources. [18:13] Pa444: afair there is a option called "gecos" who avoids that ubuntu is asking for finger informations [18:13] Pa444: you should find it in manpage of adduser [18:13] linocisco you're right! it's there in 14.04, but not in 15.04... pity [18:14] adduser --gecos GECOS Set the gecos field for the new entry generated. adduser will not ask for finger information if this option is given. [18:14] teward if you dont use adduser which command do you use.. useradd? I'm only leanring so not sure which is most effective way.. thanks Oerheks [18:15] Padepends if you want to create a home, see man adduser and man useradd [18:16] Pa444 , sorry tab did not complete your name [18:17] Oerheks thanks, i checkign that now.. I might see if there are any tutorials online to start learnign more [18:19] OerHeks: uhm... you could also create a homedir with useradd? [18:21] i would say adduser and useradd would do allmost the same but with useradd you have more control... it's more low level [18:29] Is it possible to run a terminal command with an if statement? i.e. if condition: run command [18:29] Guest6852 yes, it's called bash... [18:29] Can someone help me with this? http://pastebin.com/Xf8MMnpU [18:30] I was updating my system and using & in stead of && and I screwed something up [18:30] but I can't figure out how to unscrew it up [18:30] Hey, I just dual booted ubuntu onto my new machine, and I've run into a few issues 1) i can't seem to get a few of the repositories to give me the updates, and 2) the number of birches riding my dick because of my newfound e-1337 hacker status is mind blowing. How do you guys deal with the chafing/soreness? [18:31] MonkeyDust, I don't want to run a bash script, just 1 line the terminal that uses an if statement [18:32] zanzabar, do you have terminal + softwarecenter open? that explains that error [18:32] Guest6852 1 line is alos a script [18:32] also* [18:32] Guest6852 the guys in #bash can help you better [18:32] MonkeyDust, thank you, looking into bash + how I can use it for 1 line if statement [18:32] OerHeks: I thought something like that might have happened so I restarted my system [18:32] OerHeks: thinking that would be the best plan === fginther` is now known as fginther [18:35] Guest6852: you could do something like a=1 ; b=2 ; if [ $a -eq $b ] ; then echo "equal" ; else echo "not equal" ; fi [18:36] Guest6852: but i'm not a fan of such oneliners... it makes things more difficult to debug [18:42] aloha everyone [18:42] OerHeks: I thought it said something about going into the background/foreground is there a way to see what is the background? [18:43] can i use cuda when using the intel card? [18:43] i tried to use device query and it couldn't find a device [18:43] goddard: no, you cannot use CUDA with an Intel card, CUDA is nVidia-only [18:44] SCHAAP137: i have a prime/optimus system [18:44] SCHAAP137: two chips [18:44] nvidia and intel [18:44] still not possible? [18:44] ah ok, i have never used those, i don't know [18:45] intel-only here [18:46] ever time i try and switch to my nvidia card i get a black screen at lightdm [18:47] goddard: is this an nvidia optimus laptop? (hybrid intel + nvidia chip at the same time) [18:48] daftykins: yeah Razer Blade 2015 [18:48] goddard: can you share a pastebin of "lspci" and also let me know which drivers you tried to install? on which ubuntu version + which kernel? :) === marshal0605 is now known as marshal0505 [18:59] can someoen help me set up a public file share over wifi? [19:00] between which OSs? [19:01] what i am trying to do is have a AP or hotspot on my linux box. users would connect, maybe useing a captive portal, then they can upload or download files, maybe usihng apache, [19:01] snizzle: that was my first thought, though i think apache would only help you offer download. [19:01] okay [19:02] what is a good captive protal, i have used pfsence [19:02] that's more of a router OS, non-Linux [19:02] yeah [19:03] would it be on your general purpose laptop, or a spare computer? [19:03] dedicated [19:03] * pbx looks up "captive portal" [19:03] dedicated server for this [19:03] pbx: like when you connect to pay for wifi at hotels, you try to visit a website and it redirects you [19:04] i know it must be a pretty simple thing to set up but is beyond me right now [19:04] snizzle: have a look into hostapd, i think that would offer - or at least start to offer what you want to achieve [19:04] !info hostapd [19:04] hostapd (source: wpa (2.1-0ubuntu7.2)): user space IEEE 802.11 AP and IEEE 802.1X/WPA/WPA2/EAP Authenticator. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:2.1-0ubuntu7.2 (vivid), package size 450 kB, installed size 1356 kB (Only available for linux-any; kfreebsd-any) [19:04] i will look at that right now thanks [19:05] you could combine that with apache for hosting and perhaps FTP (to keep it multi-platform and guest only) for uploading [19:05] Hello, I need help with the system's configuration, [19:05] Specifically upon setting the backlight correctly. [19:05] mahalos daftykins ill try that [19:06] diego_: settings > brightness [19:06] From my screen. [19:07] Thanks, but something's broken. The brightness bar gets adjusted, but not the brightness itself. [19:08] diego_: what is the computer model? have you tested the kernel boot parameter "acpi_backlight=vendor" ? [19:09] diego_, i've had that happen on my machine (a dell e7240). i've got no fix for you short of logout/login or reboot though [19:10] (that assumes it normally works diego_ - if not i have even less to offer) [19:12] It is a Lenovo-Ideapad. Yes, I tried changing something in /default/grub, and in /etc/X11/xorg.conf [19:12] diego_: ok, well you'd need to check it was the line as i typed it - and be more specific on the model if possible [19:12] I rebooted twice already, and tried several fixes from stackexchange. [19:13] Lenovo-P500 === Blaster is now known as Guest8066 [19:14] ah, your online research is most likely more complete than my suggestions could be, then [19:14] diego_: is this 15.04? [19:14] Yes.

[19:23] daftykins: By all means =) http://paste.ubuntu.com/12765852/ [19:24] ioria, nothing happens goes back to prompt [19:24] diego_: ok cool, that confirmed the acpi_backlight=vendor was definitely used on boot - please try this one instead: video.use_native_backlight=0 [19:24] Rafen, We are direct ubuntu support is all. [19:24] seveneves5000, xfce4-power-manager -h [19:25] Rafen: you could pay for a VPS from a provider and use ubuntu and openvpn for free, but you're always going to need to pay someone.

[19:36] So I replaced the battery today, and now the percentage doesn't show up (though the icon is about 1/3th filled), but it doesn't seem to progress and the battery doesn't hold a charge either. [19:36] is anyone having trouble running apt-get update? I'm getting a whole bunch of 404 errors [19:36] Is there a way to see if they sent me a bad battery or the charging circuits are messed up?

It doesn't mount on any other operating system (tried OSX and Windows) [20:29] I can't feel it spin up when it's plugged in [20:29] jophish, Any history? We help but want to be sure we are helping is all. How important the data is is key. [20:31] How can i switch between opened windows [20:31] jophish, fixing a ntfs from linux is not something I would mess with but I have backups. [20:31] wileee: It's a bunch of ripped vhs tapes of my family from the 90s. Worst case, we could rip them again, but that would be a pain. The hdd history is "it's been broken for a couple of years, nobody knows how it got to be like that" [20:31] seeing the whole window..not only the icon [20:31] ALT+TAB shows only icons of opened window [20:31] s [20:31] wileee: I think it's worse than just the partitions being screwed if it doesn't even show up in lsusb [20:31] does not spin up at all? [20:32] AndreyBN: alt + ~ [20:32] snizzle: not as far as I can tell [20:32] jophish, Hard to say for me. [20:32] external HDD in a enclosure? [20:32] Hi, i have never seen in linux (any distro) a smooth copy-speed-bar when copying from a hd to a flash drive. Why on earth does that happen? I have tried many usb flash memories and distros and i pretty much get the same behaviour. Copy speed is insanely high at first, then dies and waits for some time, starts moving towards the end at some point and finishes later on. The impression that a user gets is that something is wrong or that the system has [20:32] crashed (partially). Do you have any experience on what may be the culprit? [20:33] have you taken it out and tried it naked? [20:33] snizzle: It's a 2.5 inch hdd in a box with a usb port, I can't open the box easily [20:33] I've not tried it naked [20:33] have you tried to replace the HDD contriller board? [20:33] you should [20:34] ok, I'll look into that next [20:34] thanks! [20:35] AndreyBN, unity has a button in the left panel to bring up desktops [20:35] need to install buntu on a box, all i have available is an SSD which I can connect either internally (SATA) or external USB enclosure, how do i make it an Ubuntu installation drive? [20:35] yeah two things, try it outside of the enclosure and then try to replace the HDD controller board [20:35] should i just dd the iso to the drive? [20:35] regedit: yeah [20:35] EriC^^: ok thanks :) [20:35] np :) [20:36] if i press als + ~ ..it only shows the screen of the current opened window..this doesn't help me..but i think is good enough... [20:36] EriC^^: any need for formatting or anything? or should i just straight up dd [20:36] regedit: no need to format [20:36] on windows i could press Windows-Button + Tab and i saw a 3D switch of windows [20:36] awesome [20:36] thanks! [20:37] AndreyBN: did you try super (windows button) + tab? [20:37] of course i did [20:37] AndreyBN: or super+s for a overview? [20:37] AndreyBN: if you hold alt + press ~ a couple times it should switch between windows of the same program [20:37] i installed compiz-config..but i couldnt find there any plugin for this [20:37] AndreyBN: hold super to see the list of shortcuts [20:37] AndreyBN, Some install the unity-tweak tool, compiz has a key assignment portion, be careful with both is all. [20:38] thank [20:38] whats the difference between sudo apt-get update install, and sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [20:38] tanks k1l [20:38] Super + W does what i want..thanks [20:39] ubuntuuser: there is no such command: sudo apt-get update install [20:39] ubuntuuser: apt-get update downloads the indexes for what (new) packages are available. apt-get upgrade installs those new packages. [20:41] ubuntuuser: using && between means that the second command will only execute if the first one succeeded. [20:41] yeah [20:41] thanks guys [20:41] I commend u [20:43] snizzle: no luck outside the enclosure.

Looking to upgrade from an EOL release?

[20:52] ubottu, k1l_ so at EOL, they just pull the repos? [20:52] turova: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:52] wow, pretty intelligent for a bot [20:53] turova: the repos are useless anyway since they get no updates anymore. you have a running security issue right there in front of you [20:53] k1l_: how easy is upgrading? will it save the files? I have 14.04 LTS and I was thinking about upgrading to 15.04, but not if I need to format [20:53] turova: they pull the repos a fair while after, so essentially it's a little worrying how long you've been using it without knowing it went EOL [20:53] ubuntuuser: 14.04 is LTS, long term support, i wouldn't upgrade if i were you :) [20:53] well, my impression was that the non-lts releases had 18 months of support [20:53] and it's been less than 12 [20:53] turova: you are out of service since 23.07.2015 [20:53] !releases | turova [20:53] turova: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months.

It's not really a security concern the way it's run, so the update is a pretty big time commitment for something that won't make a difference, but I guess newer is probably better [20:55] ubuntuuser: upgrades work without reinstall. it will update all packages. [20:55] ubuntuuser: no [20:55] ubuntuuser: but since you need to upgrade every 6 months then you might want to stay at LTS [20:56] turova: if you dont want to upgrade use the LTS. that is 5 years stable [20:56] k1l_: but if its really easy to upgrade like you suggest, then why not? [20:56] >D === hugo1 is now known as hugo [20:56] ubuntuuser: because there could be issues with hardware or software after an upgrade. and then you cant go back.

[21:06] Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS [21:07] did you accept the EULA when installing that microsoft fonts? [21:07] Microsoft fonts? I never installed any unless something else installed a dependency. [21:08] Should I try and just remove the package? [21:09] Cernunnos: wine is most common for needing that package. [21:09] There I removed the package it says [21:09] Oh, [21:09] Pici are you there man? [21:09] I remove Wine yesterday [21:09] accept a pm please [21:09] that'd probably be it [21:09] *removed [21:10] Okay, now that I think I've got that sorted out... Anybody know a good music player? [21:10] Similar to foobar, lightweight on resources? [21:11] Cernunnos: VLC? xD [21:11] ubuntuuser, ew [21:11] Cernunnos: i use Clementine [21:11] I [21:11] I'm managing 40gb of music.

[21:12] Cernunnos: you can also just run foobar2000 through W.I.N.E. [21:12] works well [21:12] SCHAAP137, Can you really? [21:12] sure [21:12] How's it on resources? [21:12] good i guess [21:12] Everything's functional? Even if I got a few components? [21:13] google told me about foobnix which apperently tries to be similiar to foobar [21:13] depends on the type of component, obviously ASIO won't work [21:13] waveform seekbar works [21:13] A simple quick search toolbar [21:13] essential lol [21:13] for one [21:14] eh, never mind, just ended up building it from source [21:15] Anyone use DeaDBeeF?

[21:17] like.. do "cd //" [21:18] AcousticDan, try it, then 'ls' [21:18] I get the same thing as cd / [21:18] It's just what you see when you go into "Computer" isn't it? When I type "dir" it just shows what I see in "Computer" in the file manager, AcousticDan [21:18] I think it's the same thing [21:18] I was just wondering, it was an accident and it was interesting [21:19] It's the same thing as if you were to type cd /bin/, it just goes to /bin [21:19] It's the same directory [21:19] because if you do anything more than two slashes (cd //////) just puts you in the normal root [21:19] ooooooohhhhh [21:19] that makes sense! [21:19] :P [21:19] cd /usr///bin [21:19] seems like amount of slashes does not matter [21:20] lol [21:20] though.. weird [21:20] this is cd / [21:20] dans-MBP:/ Dan$ [21:20] this is cd // [21:20] dans-MBP:// Dan$ [21:20] Ya I know [21:20] interesting [21:20] I tried it myself [21:20] which shell do you use?

Thanks! [22:48] no problem [22:58] Hello again. I have the problem where I'm getting the isolinux.bin missing or corrupt error when I try to install Ubutnu from my USB drive. I verified my Ubuntu image and got the correct MD5sum of cab6dd5ee6d649ed1b24e807c877c0ae . So the iso file I'm using seems to have downloaded correctly. [22:58] sarahcove: So how did you create the USB install medium and which ISO did you use? === Toledo is now known as Toledo|gone === cynixx3 is now known as Guest72207 [23:00] I used the ubuntu-14.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso and tried creating a USB in two ways. The first was defined at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx where I converted the .iso file to an .img file and then wrote it to the usb with dd. [23:01] The other method I used when the first didn't work was to erase the USB and then use the Mac Linux USB Loader application. It said it loaded the USB successfully but I still got the error when trying to load Ubuntu at startup [23:02] I tried two different USB sticks, in case the logic on one was causing it to be created poorly. [23:02] sarahcove, converted to .img? I can confirm that amd64 boots just fine with no such alteration. [23:03] Hi crhowlett. Should I not have convert the .iso file to .img before writing it to the usb? [23:04] sarahcove: No, Ubuntu uses hybird images that can be written straight to the USB [23:04] sarahcove: you can dd the ISO to the USB directly, since it is a hybrid ISO. [23:05] sarahcove, I've created plenty of USB using the standard 64 bit .iso then booted directly on Macs === wes is now known as Guest86162 [23:05] Okay. Thanks guys. I will try that.

It was showing up on disk1 with the partition at disk1s1. I was trying to write the ubuntu file to disk1s1. Is that a mistake? Should I write directly to disk1 instead of to the named partition for the USB? [23:10] AH, whoops, thanks -- Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS [23:10] Wes-: well, missing a lot of updates there. it should already say 14.04.3 [23:11] sarahcove, yes to USB1 not to partitions on USB1 [23:11] Awesome! Thanks. That may have been my problem. Cheers [23:11] k1l_: That's good news, then, maybe an update will fix things. Will have to dig to figure why it's not updating. [23:12] anyone familiar with partitioning an ubuntu server? i've running 14.04.3 lts on a 64gb emmc. Server purpose would be a webserver for a groupware installation for 5-10 users (apache2, mysql, php, postfix, dovecot) and i've also planing to add a nagios instance sometime later... any purposes concerning the partitioning scheme? [23:13] How old is kernel 3.13.0-49? Sep 2015? Looks like that's the last update that applied.

My question is, how loose are you guys, and how long did it take to get used to it? [23:52] I did [23:52] brotherBox, intel is pretty good supported standard. [23:52] is there any reason to choose 14.04 over 15.04 besides the longer support time? unfortunately i cant stand how far behind some of the packages are on the LTS. is there much diff in 15.04? [23:52] brotherbox [23:52] it was at 12 bytes a second [23:52] but that doesnt explain why im seeing wrinkly old cocks and nudes of richard stallman everywhere [23:52] Normally I get 6mbps [23:52] also the firefighters want to fuck me [23:52] download speed [23:53] can i get aids that way [23:53] /ignore brotherbox [23:53] do you really have nothing better to do brotherbox [23:53] ty [23:54] I'm gonna try and use Transmission instead of qBittorrent [23:55] Transmission's speeds aren't any better [23:57] Is there a chance the port I'm using is blocked by a firewall?
