| ZeZu | If I got an error during package installation and the OS boots, but only into black screen ... (which is odd as seemingly it is NOT Xorg running?), but I can get back to root terminal, might I be able to fix it easily by chroot on livecd and simply adding packages? | 00:17 |

| dunderproto | I'm trying to see if I can directly connect my ubuntu box to the internet without the modem provided by my ISP | 00:23 |
| Ben64 | dunderproto: you need a modem to connect to the internet | 00:23 |
| dunderproto | Last week, I set my router to bridge mode and then connected my computer to the router successfully via pppoe | 00:23 |
| dunderproto | is it possible to entirely skip the modem and just hook up the vdsl2 line to the pc? | 00:24 |
| CABS | hola desde Argentina :) | 00:24 |
| dunderproto | Ben64: Is it possible for Ubuntu to act as a modem? | 00:24 |
| SepLIte | Hey, so recently I've been having trouble with xorg and my desktop, can anyone help me? I posted a thread on ubuntu forums, but unfortunately I was away from my computer for a few days and now there's no activity on the thread | 00:25 |
| ZeZu | I should've known it'd fail yet again and lock up, I guess i'll be installing the whole system from command line | 00:26 |
| SepLIte | Here is the thread:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2296572 , however I have determined it is not a lubuntu-desktop error, as I installed cinnamon which also cannot launch properly | 00:28 |
| ZeZu | fun w. debootstrap | 00:31 |
| dunderproto | The cable I'm trying to connect to was labeled VDSL2, and it seems to have an RJ11 connector. Is it impossible to skip the intervening router given by my ISP? | 00:31 |
| ZeZu | joy | 00:31 |
| ZeZu | hmm i suppose I could make grub boot the iso instead ... but i recall that being flaky too | 00:32 |

| dunderproto | Ben64: Ah, OK. Thanks. A pity, I was hoping to be able to reduce the number of machines | 00:39 |
| ZeZu | bela, the mid 2011 imac and mba can be a pain in the ass, but I do get them to work | 00:42 |
| bela | ZeZu, I get 7 hrs of batter ilfe on my yosemite doing browsing + compiling latex occassionally | 00:43 |
| bela | Does that compare ? | 00:43 |
| ZeZu | bela, I've no clue on battery life for mba personally, I know you can tune linux to take into account cpu scaling etc for power requirements, and it will significantly raise battery life ... I've never had any problems on notebooks w. linux. | 00:44 |
| ZeZu | Just install it side by side and try it out | 00:44 |
| bela | The thing is I'm a relative noob and would like to have some reassuring words before trying something like that | 00:45 |
| bela | Plus, if the battery life really is bad then it wouldn't be worth the hassle | 00:45 |
| ZeZu | People will tell you anything, until you try it yourself they are only words... Try the livecd so you don't have to change your pc at all | 00:45 |
| ZeZu | livecd can be live-usb, it's actually as simple as extracting an iso to a usb drive and holding down the option (alt) key while booting and it'll bootup live-usb of ubuntu | 00:46 |

| pizzaiolo | Hi all. I'm having an issue with partitioning. I'm installing Ubuntu 14.04 over Linux Mint. I've deleted all previous partitions with GParted, but when I try to install Ubuntu, it asks me to partition manually instead of simply wiping out the disk and doing a fresh install. | 00:59 |
| pizzaiolo | It asks me to create a partition for boot loader code | 00:59 |
| pizzaiolo | but when I do that it gives me an error | 01:00 |
| pizzaiolo | how should I partition it? | 01:00 |
| ZeZu | It should have the option to use whole disk | 01:01 |
| ZeZu | its in the same dialog where you would have to explicitly select manual paritioning | 01:01 |
| bela | will give it a shot ZeZu thanks for the suggestion of the live usb ! | 01:02 |
| ZeZu | bela, no prob | 01:07 |
| ZeZu | bela, make sure you have the latest efi firmware for your macbook from the apple site, should already have it but doesn't hurt to make sure and it may save a lot of headache | 01:07 |

| FunkyELF | I installed environment-modules but I don't have the "module" command available in my terminals unless I ssh into myself or su. This happens even after a reboot. In fact "su eric" doesn't even make it available only "su - eric" http://pastebin.ca/3197150 | 01:34 |
| bazhang | ivan_, stop speaking spanish here | 01:34 |
| ivan_ | crof | 01:37 |
| FunkyELF | can someone explain that?... why ssh'ing or using "su - eric" I would have the "module" command available but not just by logging in graphically even after a reboot? Why is my environment different depending on how I come in? Some website suggested for Ubuntu to source "/etc/profile.d/modules.sh" from ~/.bashrc | 01:39 |
| FunkyELF | but on the RHEL machines I use I can just use "module" from my terminals no problem and I didn't add anything to my ~/.bashrc | 01:39 |
| OerHeks | FunkyELF, you ssh in as a non-root user. if you use sudo module, you can do what you want. | 01:40 |
| OerHeks | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Loadable_Modules | 01:41 |
| FunkyELF | OerHeks: not kernel modules | 01:41 |
| Ben64 | FunkyELF: explain more | 01:42 |
| FunkyELF | OerHeks: look at the pastebin. "module" is a bash function which just calls eval `/usr/bin/modulecmd sh $*` | 01:42 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: install environment-modules yourself and see. You'll only get the "module" function available if you "su - your_userid" or "ssh localhost" | 01:44 |
| Ben64 | FunkyELF: did you reboot | 01:45 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: I did... thats the weird thing | 01:45 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: I tried logging out and back in first... didn't work. So I did a reboot | 01:45 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: did you install environment-modules ? | 01:51 |
| Ben64 | FunkyELF: nah, don't want to | 01:51 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: any idea what differences there are between "su eric" and "su - eric"? | 01:51 |
| Ben64 | FunkyELF: a lot | 01:52 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: any way to tell where a function was defined and how the file that defined it got sourced? | 01:53 |
| Ben64 | FunkyELF: add this to ~/.profile http://sprunge.us/VALR | 01:53 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile ? | 01:54 |
| Ben64 | ~/.profile | 01:54 |
| FunkyELF | Ben42: so it seems with "bash -i" it is not available but with "bash -l" it is | 01:54 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: thanks | 01:55 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: at work we use RHEL. It has "module" available with both interactive and login shells. Any clue how to debug everything that gets sourced during bash startup? I always seem to have this problem on every distro, trying to figure out where something came from | 01:57 |

| Ben64 | yes | 01:59 |
| FunkyELF | Ben64: adding that to ~/.profile didn't seem to work. "bash -i" still doens't give me the command while "bash -l" does | 01:59 |
| TheNet | Ben64: thanks | 01:59 |
| Ben64 | FunkyELF: weird | 02:00 |
| TheNet | why a sudo group over visudo? | 02:00 |
| Ben64 | TheNet: because ubuntu is already set up to give everyone in the sudo group access to sudo, no editing the sudoers file or anything | 02:00 |
| TheNet | makes sense | 02:01 |

| magnetik_ | I lost fonts | 02:07 |
| magnetik_ | Ubunutu software center | 02:07 |
| magnetik_ | a bunch of stuff unrelated to wine | 02:08 |
| danimal | couldnt tell ya magnetik that sucks. guess you would have to just reinstall what ya need? | 02:08 |
| Ben64 | thats why you should look and see what it says its going to remove | 02:08 |
| magnetik_ | I don't know the names of what's missing | 02:08 |
| magnetik_ | is there a log? | 02:08 |
| Ben64 | yes. /var/log/apt/term.log | 02:09 |
| rypervenche | magnetik_: It will be in /var/log/apt/history.loh | 02:09 |
| rypervenche | log* | 02:09 |
| rypervenche | Both logs have good information | 02:09 |
| danimal | anyone have some ideas on my issue? | 02:09 |
| Ben64 | explain everything | 02:10 |
| magnetik_ | Ben64 rypervenche thanks! found it | 02:10 |
| somsip | danimal: I saw the paste but not the original problem - can you repeat? | 02:10 |
| danimal | sure | 02:10 |
| magnetik_ | I mean look at this | 02:10 |
| magnetik_ | Commandline: apt-get purge wine* | 02:10 |
| magnetik_ | Purge: gnome-shell:amd64 (3.10.4-0ubuntu5.2), kerneloops-daemon:amd64 (0.12+git20090217-3ubuntu8), libabiword-3.0:amd64 (3.0.0-4ubuntu1.1), gconf2:amd64 (3.2.6-0ubuntu2), abiword:amd64 (3.0.0-4ubuntu1.1), xubuntu-desktop:amd64 (2.180), libgdata13:amd64 (0.14.1-1), librasqal3:amd64 (0.9.32-1), python-sam | 02:10 |
| magnetik_ | very odd for those packages to get purged no? ... | 02:11 |
| magnetik_ | that was 15/100s | 02:11 |
| rypervenche | wine* is not wine | 02:11 |
| danimal | ubuntu server on vm. setup static ip, but can't ping my gateway. i also disabled firewall via ufw disable. | 02:11 |
| badbodh | firewall doesn;t block outgoing connections | 02:12 |
| somsip | danimal: what sort of vm? What networking are you using (bridged, etc) | 02:12 |
| badbodh | maybe your vm network device isn;t configured correctly. | 02:12 |
| danimal | its a bitnami vmware image. and it is set for bridged | 02:12 |
| rypervenche | magnetik_: ^ the * was the mistake you made. | 02:13 |
| danimal | just using this for web development | 02:13 |
| badbodh | who's bitnami ? | 02:13 |
| magnetik_ | why does wine* match all those packages though? | 02:13 |
| danimal | bitnami.com they make stacks for devs | 02:13 |
| badbodh | you should ask the bitnami guys why their image is faulting with network | 02:14 |
| rypervenche | magnetik_: You should look to see exactly what it matches. | 02:14 |
| badbodh | better get ubuntu server iso and cook your own vm, see if same problem exists | 02:15 |
| danimal | true, that's a good idea | 02:15 |
| badbodh | magnetik_, if you have pastebinit installed run "cat /var/log/apt/history.log|pastebinit" and share the link | 02:16 |
| badbodh | same drill for /var/log/apt/term.log | 02:17 |
| danimal | cool, not heard of the piping to pastebin | 02:17 |
| magnetik_ | babodh all I needed was the locations of these logs, no need to send you list of all my package version ;) I'm not on a bouncer | 02:18 |
| magnetik_ | it makes sense now that I see the output of | 02:18 |
| badbodh | danimal, it's quite handy for troubleshooting. hard to copy/paste big log files manually. | 02:18 |
| magnetik_ | apt-cache search wine* | 02:18 |
| danimal | cool, will install that. thanks for the tip | 02:19 |
| TheNet | is it recommended to add your public key to root's authorized_keys (I have passwords disabled)? | 02:19 |
| rypervenche | magnetik_: Good :) Always check before acceoting in the future. | 02:19 |
| TheNet | I can't see why it would be if your account has root access | 02:19 |
| Ben64 | TheNet: shouldn't be able to log in to root at all | 02:20 |
| magnetik_ | @TheNet no | 02:20 |
| TheNet | Ben64: well I can't if I don't have an authorized_keys file for root, right? | 02:20 |
| badbodh | danimal, you can also pipe commands like "apt-get update|pastebinit" and "dmesg|pastebinit" | 02:20 |
| ItsMeLenny | hello, in network connections i'd like to do a "shared to other computers" with my wifi card but set it up manually, i cant seem to figure out how to do it manually | 02:20 |

| magnetik_ | only use sudo to root | 02:20 |
| magnetik_ | you can always | 02:20 |
| magnetik_ | sudo su | 02:20 |
| magnetik_ | if you really need root shell | 02:21 |
| danimal | badbodh, nice | 02:21 |
| Ben64 | please don't | 02:21 |
| TheNet | alright, and root login is essentially disabled if I don't have an authorized_keys file for root, right? | 02:21 |
| Ben64 | 'sudo -i' if you need a root shell | 02:21 |
| Ben64 | the way you mentioned is not good | 02:21 |
| magnetik_ | TheNet you should also set AllowRootLogin no | 02:21 |

| TheNet | thanks | 02:23 |
| magnetik_ | In general, though some hosts are configured with a bunch of public keys in root's authorized keys | 02:24 |
| magnetik_ | but this is bad practice TheNet for a number of reasons | 02:24 |
| badbodh | Ben64, what's the diff between sudo -i and -s , the manpage says both user's password | 02:24 |
| magnetik_ | including no audit log | 02:24 |
| badbodh | *both use | 02:24 |
| convict | #android | 02:26 |
| === ColtonDRG-ZNC is now known as ColtonDRG | ||
| magnetik_ | badbodh just read the manpage, -i runs a shell using the shell indicated for the target user (root) in /etc/passwd, -s just runs $SHELL as root, so you don't get the right env for root if you really want to seem like root | 02:29 |
| magnetik_ | you can try it | 02:29 |
| imthenachoman | hey guys...lately i've noticed that during apt-get upgrades some of the updates seem to wait for input. some message is displayed and i have to press q to quit/continue. almost like the upgrade is doing a more on a file.... | 02:31 |
| badbodh | magnetik_, my environmental variables are preserved either way (i keepenv in /etc/sudoers) . in -i i don;t need to edit sudoers file anymore ? | 02:31 |
| magnetik_ | opposite | 02:32 |
| magnetik_ | -i uses root's .profile | 02:32 |
| magnetik_ | so you get root's env if you want it with -i | 02:32 |
| magnetik_ | it's clear for me because my root's PS1 is very different than my nonpriv user | 02:33 |
| magnetik_ | I'm so used to doing sudo su, so this is good to know about | 02:34 |
| Ben64 | yeah really try not to do that | 02:34 |
| Ben64 | it can break things | 02:34 |
| badbodh | imthenachoman, we need the exact " some message is displayed" part | 02:34 |
| imthenachoman | badbodh: it happens a lot. almost every time i do an update there is something or the else that it gets stuck waiting for input | 02:35 |
| badbodh | some packages during upgrade asks if you wish to keep the existing configuration or overwrite it with "package maintainer's version" | 02:35 |
| badbodh | normally you wouldn;t wanna do that, but it depends on what package you are upgrading. so name of the package and exact message is needed before we give any usable advice | 02:36 |
| magnetik_ | badbodh, that's as opposed to using -s. I can see how it can be confusing if you use keepenv | 02:36 |
| badbodh | magnetik_, i'm very confused. i've been sudo -s ing my entire life :D | 02:41 |
| badbodh | imthenachoman, run "cat /var/log/apt/history.log|pastebinit" and share url, we'll know what you upgraded and which ones ask for user input | 02:42 |
| magnetik_ | to me, sudo -s looks like sudo -i with keepenv | 02:42 |
| magnetik_ | so sudo -i must not look like anything new for you | 02:42 |
| jre56 | I have a bash script I want to run from a shortcut on the desktop. I created the .desktop file and it runs the program. however the screen closes immediately after the program starts an the script only works half way. It appears in only process one line of the scripts and closes the script. The script works just fine from CLI, is there a reason why this happens | 02:42 |
| Nach0z | dammit. | 02:42 |
| badbodh | jre56, did you "TERMIANAL=yes" ? | 02:43 |
| badbodh | *terminal | 02:43 |
| magnetik_ | badbodh what option are you using exactly? you should see a difference, from the manpage "As a special case, if sudo's -i option (initial login) is specified, sudoers will initialize the environment regardless of the value of env_reset." | 02:46 |
| badbodh | jre56, Terminal=true , sorry. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Desktop_entries | 02:47 |
| badbodh | magnetik_, i use sudo -s | 02:47 |
| magnetik_ | I mean special options in your sudoers file to keep your environment | 02:48 |
| badbodh | keepenv += "a bunch of stuff i need" | 02:48 |
| imthenachoman | badbodh: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12785657/ | 02:49 |
| magnetik_ | ok, well, if that environment creates a superset of root's .profile chain that looks similar to your environment you'll see no difference between -i and -s | 02:50 |
| magnetik_ | run $ set > sudoi.txt | 02:50 |
| imthenachoman | badbodh: all the output of doing an apt-get upgrade, is that saved in a log? i can find the reference to it | 02:50 |
| magnetik_ | $ set > sudos.txt | 02:50 |
| magnetik_ | and diff them | 02:50 |
| magnetik_ | you' | 02:50 |
| magnetik_ | ll see | 02:50 |
| badbodh | imthenachoman, that will be in /var/log/apt/term.log | 02:51 |
| imthenachoman | badbodh: gah. the input message it showed is not in it. i'll have to see next time i do an upgrade | 02:53 |
| imthenachoman | badbodh: unless you see something in what i pastebinned | 02:54 |
| badbodh | magnetik_, one diff is obvious at first. when i sudo -i the directory changes to root's home, sudo -s keeps me in my own home | 02:54 |

| Cernunnos | I was wondering if there was some sort of plugin for DeaDBeef that shows like the "Now playing" thing... Like Clementine and some other players do when you switch tracks and such | 02:56 |

| nearlyNon_ | so... I have a xubuntu disk x64 loading in UEFI mode (tried BIOS load as well), and yet it can't recognize my windows 10 partitions... I've disabled fast boot as well | 03:06 |
| nearlyNon_ | and for some reason in BIOS my windows 10 drive shows up as Legacy rather than EFI | 03:07 |
| magnetik_ | rick_ do you know about strace? | 03:07 |
| magnetik_ | e.g. | 03:07 |
| magnetik_ | strace ls 2>&1 | grep open | 03:07 |
| magnetik_ | you may be able to add strace to an init script | 03:08 |
| magnetik_ | the above command show all files that are opened when `ls` is run | 03:08 |
| Cernunnos | Well DeaDBeeF is starting to seem like it's pretty featureless... Anybody know any good lightweight music players? | 03:09 |
| magnetik_ | mpd | 03:09 |
| cfhowlett | Cernunnos, mplayer | 03:09 |
| cfhowlett | Cernunnos, mplayer2 | 03:09 |
| Cernunnos | I'm looking for something more... Oriented to music specific things | 03:10 |
| rick_ | manacit, something like that, but I am interesting about all files opened. If I can log what files are opened during operation, I can remove files not used and reduce size of root file system | 03:10 |
| Cernunnos | I've come across a few that run all in the terminal and those seem interesting but idk lol | 03:10 |
| nearlyNon_ | and I don't see a secure boot option in the BIOS to disable... | 03:11 |
| rick_ | manacit, strace only keep track of process, and lsof only list opened files when I issue lsof command | 03:11 |
| magnetik_ | rick_ deleting files that "aren't used at boot" is a bad idea | 03:12 |
| rick_ | manacit, I want to gather a list of opened files from system boot up and regular operations. | 03:12 |
| magnetik_ | many things are scheduled to run at boot only after certain intervals have passed | 03:13 |
| Cernunnos | and honestly I've been spoiled by equalizers can't live without em | 03:13 |
| magnetik_ | on certain days | 03:13 |
| Cernunnos | any more suggestions for lightweight music players? | 03:13 |
| rick_ | magnetik_, yes | 03:13 |
| magnetik_ | and some critical files are rarely used | 03:13 |
| nearlyNon_ | so gparted shows me a random internal rcovery drive I didn't know this laptop had and a huge unallocated HDD which should have 1, maybe 2 partitions on it | 03:14 |
| magnetik_ | rick_ if you really want control over your filesystem I suggest LFS | 03:14 |
| wileee | nearlyNon_, Have you resized windows just before this? | 03:14 |
| nearlyNon_ | yes | 03:14 |
| wileee | nearlyNon_, did you reboot it so it runs a chkdsk if needed? | 03:15 |
| nearlyNon_ | I rebooted once and then shut down completely without fastboot | 03:15 |
| nearlyNon_ | well technically at this rate I've probably rebooted thrice | 03:15 |
| nearlyNon_ | in gparted there's... | 03:16 |
| nearlyNon_ | dev/mmcblk0 which is flagged as boot and is labelled RECOVERY | 03:16 |
| nearlyNon_ | and dev/sda which is the problem drive | 03:17 |
| magnetik_ | rick_ it looks like you can do what you want with auditctl http://linux.die.net/man/8/auditctl | 03:17 |
| magnetik_ | see the examples | 03:17 |
| magnetik_ | the syscall that you want for is -S open | 03:17 |
| nearlyNon_ | okay so the drive is MBR | 03:18 |
| magnetik_ | auditd init has to start early | 03:18 |
| nearlyNon_ | not UEFI | 03:18 |

| CountryfiedLinux | If I add the Numix PPA and bring in the circle icons and plymouth will it conflict with the officially supported numix gtk and icon themes that are preinstalled? I was gonna remove the preinstalled ones first but it says it will also remove xubuntu-setting xubuntu-artwork and xubuntu-desktop? Or can this be avoided if I just simply remove the preinstalled Numix theme folders? | 04:43 |
| cfhowlett | h82or8, happy2help! | 04:43 |
| HackSmash | Crigges im thinking your web server is set to not display files from the root folder ... which is normal cause that would normally show the user directory structure | 04:43 |
| CountryfiedLinux | In Xubuntu that is. | 04:43 |
| lotuspsychje | !ppa | CountryfiedLinux | 04:43 |
| ubottu | CountryfiedLinux: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge | 04:43 |
| HackSmash | root folder is normally the /home folder with ~username/file.ext running out from there | 04:44 |
| CountryfiedLinux | The standard Numix Gtk, window, and icon theme is installed lotuspsychje and I'm just wanting to make sure the ones from the PPA don't conflict with the preinstalled ones. That and also wanting to know that if it does that I can simply remove the theme folders without removing xubuntu-artwork xubuntu-settings and xubuntu-desktop. Numix is officially supported in Xubuntu that's why I'm asking this here. | 04:46 |
| HackSmash | thats why i think your getting a 404 ... security on the root folder isnt allowing it | 04:46 |
| lotuspsychje | CountryfiedLinux: we dont support 3rd party ppa's mate | 04:47 |
| CountryfiedLinux | I understand that lotuspsychje my main question is will removing theme folders also remove xubuntu-desktop xubuuntu-settings and xubuntu-artwork. If I remove numix with sudo apt-get remove/purge numix-gtk-theme it will, just needing to know if manually removing them from the theme folders will do the same. | 04:48 |
| cfhowlett | CountryfiedLinux, best ask the ppa maintainer for recommendations. We don't support them at all | 04:49 |
| cfhowlett | nice try though | 04:49 |
| CountryfiedLinux | I'm past PPA. Again, my question is will manually removing the Numix themes from the theme folders also remove xubuntu-desktop xubuntu-artwork and xubuntu-settings in the same way that is indicated if I removed them via 'sudo apt-get remove numix-gtk-theme'. | 04:50 |
| CountryfiedLinux | Numix theme is preinstalled in Xubuntu, that's why I asked. | 04:51 |

| CountryfiedLinux | Ok lemme rephrase the question. | 04:57 |
| Ler | Hey, just testing if this works | 04:57 |
| CountryfiedLinux | Can manually removing theme folders possibly remove any other packages? | 04:57 |

| BlackDalek | Is it possible to install the LXDE environment without installing all of Lubuntu? I just want to have a choice of desktop environment managers without changing all my applications. | 07:19 |
| LambdaComplex | BlackDalek: Calling "LXDE" a desktop environment is a bit of a stretch tbh. It's basically just throwing a bunch of applications together into a desktop environment | 07:20 |
| LambdaComplex | Like, XFCE has it's own window manager. So does Cinnamon and GNOME and KDE etc. | 07:21 |
| LambdaComplex | LXDE just uses OpenBox, which is pretty usable standalone | 07:21 |
| LambdaComplex | So, maybe find a list of LXDE stuff you actually wanna use and then just install that? | 07:22 |
| theptr | Hi, i have a stock ubuntu 14.04Lts . but i have a problem with dualscreen .. i have to monitors on the dvi so 1 dvi for each monitor and when i boot ubuntu the screens lose there config (ubuntu loses it ) zo i press the windows key and p and ubuntu sets it back to extended mode . can i make this permanent ? | 07:23 |
| BlackDalek | wait... so LXDE is NOT a desktop environment? I am confused. | 07:26 |
| auronandace | BlackDalek: lxde is a desktop environment, it is just a light one that relies on individual components | 07:28 |
| wileee | BlackDalek, It's a desktop, the lubuntu mini minimal install is very light, no apps, you add want you want. | 07:28 |
| madebymarkca | if you are looking for something light you should try mate | 07:29 |
| madebymarkca | it's the new mint | 07:29 |
| BlackDalek | ok. thanks for your input. | 07:31 |

| zetheroo | I am trying to get a program to startup after login with a delay. I have tried "sleep 30; program" "sleep 30 && program" and "sleep 30 && program;" and none of them work in Startup Applications. (Ubuntu 14.04) | 07:37 |

| shiv | Hi I installed ubuntu 15.10, i,ve lost all data. | 07:38 |
| shiv | and its shows only 1 drive | 07:39 |
| sp3ck | zetheroo, does it run at all? | 07:39 |
| zetheroo | sp3ck: not automatically | 07:39 |
| shiv | used space is 4 gb and remaining is free 445 gb | 07:40 |
| zetheroo | sp3ck: all three commands work from terminal | 07:40 |
| sp3ck | zetheroo, what's the action of the program? How are you sure that it doesn't run? | 07:41 |
| zetheroo | it's keepass2 | 07:41 |
| sp3ck | zetheroo, in example: if you echoing something in stdout it wont show up | 07:42 |
| shiv | i want 2 partition in remaining disk plese help | 07:42 |
| zetheroo | sp3ck: I know it's not opening because when it opens it asks for creds to load the keepass db | 07:42 |
| sp3ck | shiv, write your question in one message, no one will follow-up all these msgs in irc. | 07:43 |
| shiv | thanks | 07:43 |
| sp3ck | zetheroo, i have keepass startup and working. Maybe it's a scope/path issue | 07:44 |
| zetheroo | sp3ck: with a delay? | 07:45 |
| sp3ck | zetheroo, nope. It doesn't need it, so i don't have it. :P | 07:45 |
| zetheroo | sp3ck: I have it starting up as well ... without a delay it works ... I need to delay it's opening | 07:46 |
| sp3ck | create a bash script with all your commands, run it, test it, then put its absolute path on startup applications | 07:46 |
| sp3ck | zetheroo, | 07:47 |
| sp3ck | zetheroo, and remember to make it executable before or prefix the abs path with `bash ` in order to run it | 07:48 |
| shiv | I had windows7, I Installed ubuntu 15.10 today. now I see only one drive 4GB used in operating system and 445GB is free. I want 2 other partition in remaining space please help I am new Ubuntu user | 07:49 |
| zetheroo | tried to use the full path - also not working | 07:49 |
| curiousx | shiv: try this: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec_Step_By_Step | 07:50 |
| sp3ck | zetheroo, full path of the script or full path of keepass executable? I'm proposing to run a startup script which does all the work you need, instead of running an one-liner. | 07:51 |
| shiv | thank u very much | 07:51 |
| sp3ck | shiv, What are you trying to do partition resize etc won't be painless. Be aware. In your position and with the data lost.. First, i would try to recover some and second i would format and install again Ubuntu with the desired partitioning. | 07:54 |
| zetheroo | sp3ck: full path to the keepass executable - I would rather not have to fiddle with scripts as I am looking for solutions for a wide user base who are just learning the basics of Linux | 07:56 |
| sp3ck | (bump) hi, i have an HP 530 notebook, with "iwl3945: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG/BG Network Connection driver" (output from dmesg). My problem is that the wifi Switch on|off doesn't work, its dead. Any ideas? | 07:57 |
| shiv | Yes u R right | 07:59 |
| shiv | Please tell me how to create partition I have already backed up data | 08:01 |
| madebymarkca | well, if you want you can use gparted | 08:02 |
| iszak | Does apt have a roll back command? | 08:02 |
| hateball | sp3ck: So you do not have a working wifi connection, is that the problem? or is the problem you cannot turn it off? | 08:02 |
| * HackSmash has a hp 2000 ... i needed to try a few different drivers to get everything working when i first loaded ubuntu | 08:03 | |
| sp3ck | hateball, nope, no wifi connection. Btn is dead. | 08:03 |
| madebymarkca | or you can use fdisk | 08:03 |
| hateball | sp3ck: run "rfkill list" in a terminal, see if it is softblocked | 08:03 |
| sp3ck | shiv, http://askubuntu.com/questions/51272/how-do-i-repartition-with-gparted | 08:03 |
| sp3ck | hateball, yes it is soft-blocked | 08:06 |
| hateball | sp3ck: run "rfkill" on its own to see the syntax for unblocking | 08:07 |
| hateball | Note that unblocking wont work if it hasnt been able to load the correct firmware | 08:07 |
| sp3ck | hateball, :) `rfkill unblock all` and now its unblocked. | 08:08 |
| hateball | sp3ck: Does it behave as expected now? | 08:08 |
| sp3ck | hateball, nope the button is still dead and wifi connection in UI is also disabled. | 08:09 |
| hateball | sp3ck: suppose you could try "sudo apt-get install linux-firmware" and a reboot | 08:09 |
| sp3ck | hateball, already did and rebooted. | 08:10 |
| hateball | hmm. | 08:10 |
| HackSmash | did it work under windows ? | 08:10 |
| hateball | sp3ck: What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 08:10 |
| hateball | Rather, what kernel | 08:10 |
| sp3ck | 15.04 | 08:10 |
| sp3ck | hateball, 15.04 | 08:11 |
| sp3ck | HackSmash, yes under vista before 5-7 years. I had Ubuntu 12.04 till now and the switch was working. | 08:12 |
| hateball | sp3ck: Hmmm. Could you try reloading the module? "sudo modprobe -r iwl3945 && sudo modprobe iwl3945 | 08:12 |
| sp3ck | hateball, still the same | 08:14 |

| ubottu | Exogar: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 08:19 |
| hateball | Exogar: By default an LTS release will only look for newer LTS releases however, and there is no one newer than 14.04 | 08:19 |
| sp3ck | Exogar, not sure but i think if you run an LTS version the apt will update you to the next LTS version. And that's not how you upgrade anyway. | 08:19 |
| Exogar | thanks guys, i was confused. Thought the 15.xx was LTS, will look at those links and try 'do-release-upgrade' :) | 08:19 |
| Ben64 | Exogar: i'd recommend you stay on 14.04, it's supported until 2019 and you can upgrade straight to 16.04 in April. 15.04 is the latest, and support for it ends in January | 08:20 |

| sp3ck | hateball, already installed the package. No luck. | 08:22 |
| khildin | Exogar, if you want to see 'what's new', just install virtualbox or something similar and install 15.04 in a VM. | 08:22 |
| sp3ck | Exogar, use a Virtual Machine to do so or a live usb/cd/dvd | 08:22 |

| sp3ck | HackSmash, yes... | 08:27 |
| hateball | sp3ck: well the switch only controls the block state, and as long as both hard and soft are unblocked it *should* work, provided it loads the right module/firmware | 08:28 |
| sp3ck | hateball, hard-blocked states is set to "yes" | 08:28 |

| === circ-user-2So3C is now known as Ian | ||

| shyamsk | so when does one get an I/O error? I was getting one while I try to open a folder on my WD ext hard disk on Ubuntu, but I can open the same folder without any problems on Windows. Any idea why? | 10:07 |
| cfhowlett | i/o errors could be a faulty connection but usually indicate failing storage hardware. | 10:08 |
| hateball | shyamsk: what manner of filesystem does the partition have? | 10:12 |
| hateball | shyamsk: if it's uncleanly unmounted NTFS you will get errors in linux until you mark it as clean, Windows wont mind | 10:12 |
| shyamsk | hateball: NTFS | 10:16 |
| shyamsk | uncleanly mounted? | 10:16 |
| hateball | shyamsk: like if you just remove it without unmounting properly | 10:16 |
| hateball | shyamsk: if you plug it in, and then run "dmesg" in a terminal you should see a message if it cant mount it | 10:17 |
| hateball | shyamsk: or can you access *some* content on it? | 10:17 |
| shyamsk | ah I did do that (simply remove it) | 10:17 |
| shyamsk | on a Windows system right now. Will have to check the dmesg o/p and get back to you. | 10:18 |
| hateball | shyamsk: Well then you can either connect it to windows and perform a clean unmount, or use "ntfsfix -d /dev/sdX" | 10:18 |
| hateball | shyamsk: where /dev/sdX is whatever the kernel assigns the drive/partition. Probably /dev/sdb1 if you have just one internal HDD | 10:19 |
| shyamsk | yes. I seem to be able to access all the content except one folder. I had copied to it today and disconnected the hd hurriedly. | 10:20 |
| shyamsk | hateball: A clean unmount in Windows would be simply clicking "Eject", correct? | 10:21 |
| cfhowlett | shyamsk, and waiting until windows says "safe to remove" ... | 10:21 |
| shyamsk | right :) | 10:22 |
| capsicum1 | hi, anyone running snappy ubuntu | 10:22 |
| teemo | Where can I find the IP ranges for the Amazon Ubuntu repository mirror, for outbound firewall rules? | 10:23 |
| shyamsk | hateball: so what is the cause of the error? I understand it bcoz I didn't unmount it properly. But could you get a little more technical? So that I can learn a little more from your explanation | 10:23 |

| mat1tc | k1l: ok, I need it for work, but can't get it, well, working - wondering if it might be a general security certificate issue though, as when I run a check on the site it tells me I'm missing an intermediary cert, but whenI try to install it, it tells me it's already installed.

| k1l | mat1tc: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CitrixICAClientHowTo | 11:53 |
| Ben64 | better answer is - it depends | 11:53 |
| mat1tc | k1l: Followed all of those instructions :( | 11:53 |
| Ben64 | if you need swap for a reason, or you have low memory, it can be helpful. for some people it is completely unnecessary | 11:54 |

| EriC^^ | zhxt_: hold on | 11:54 |

| Nindustries | heh, nvm :D | 11:57 |
| mat1tc | hateball: ok will give it a try, thanks | 11:58 |

| Nindustries | Nope; http://pastebin.com/aXPBa3cv | 13:32 |
| mistralol | did something happen to the ubuntu utopic repo? | 13:33 |
| thebwt | EoL | 13:33 |
| mistralol | does it get moved to an archive anywhere? | 13:33 |
| thebwt | negative :( | 13:33 |
| EriC^^ | Nindustries: ok, try to remove the dnscrypt... package if you don't need it | 13:33 |
| Nindustries | Well I do need it | 13:34 |
| EriC^^ | or reinstall it | 13:34 |
| Nindustries | and I am using it | 13:34 |
| mistralol | ahhh cause i cannot upgrade this machine to vivid either | 13:34 |
| EriC^^ | reinstall it then, something is wrong with it | 13:34 |
| thebwt | mistralol: oh | 13:34 |
| OerHeks | !eolupgrade | mistralol you can do the old-releases trick, but that would not make your system safe, only for testing/upgrading purposes | 13:34 |
| ubottu | mistralol you can do the old-releases trick, but that would not make your system safe, only for testing/upgrading purposes: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 13:34 |
| thebwt | mistralol: actually http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ | 13:34 |
| spider_ | Hello | 13:34 |
| bag | HI | 13:34 |
| mistralol | thebwt: thats basically the old repo arhcive locations? | 13:35 |
| k1l | mistralol: see the bots message | 13:35 |
| thebwt | looks like it, I just found out about it, but do read bot msg | 13:35 |
| thebwt | I imagine it links to it somewhere | 13:35 |
| fyf | How are you.... | 13:35 |
| Nindustries | Aye, I fixed it | 13:36 |
| Nindustries | thanks | 13:36 |
| k1l | mistralol: the archives of the unsuported releases get put away. if you still run a unsupported release upgrade asap. this is highly security risk | 13:36 |
| mistralol | k1l: i cannot upgrade vivid wont run on this machine it hangs | 13:36 |
| k1l | mistralol: no | 13:37 |
| EriC^^ | Nindustries: np | 13:37 |
| mistralol | k1l: no seriously i need the machine to work on and I installed it with vivid when it came out and its hangs | 13:37 |
| k1l | mistralol: you can not stay on 14.10. there is no choice. either you make a 14.04 lts install or upgrade to 15.04 and solve the issue | 13:37 |
| thebwt | mistralol: I'll let you know how moving to the old-releases channel works | 13:37 |
| mistralol | k1l: well 14.04 has some other bugs that dont work on this machine and 15.04 wont work either sooo ummm? | 13:38 |
| thebwt | k1l: for some people, they understand the risk and need a temp fix | 13:38 |
| k1l | mistralol: i would not call it working on a EOL ubuntu. aynthing you do there is highly security issue. | 13:38 |
| k1l | thebwt: that is just plain stupid | 13:38 |
| mistralol | k1l: thats fine the machine is behind some firewalls ;) | 13:38 |
| k1l | mistralol: firewalls dont help anything | 13:39 |
| thebwt | mistralol: it's not firewalls do get off ASAP, but this will get you working long enough | 13:39 |
| mistralol | k1l: whats more important ot me is haveing a stable system vs security issues from being behind 2 nats ..... | 13:39 |
| mistralol | k1l: you gotta realize i adont actually use the machine for browsing the web and stuff | 13:39 |
| mistralol | k1l: in fact its just running a bunch of virtual machines | 13:39 |
| pbx | this morning when i open a terminal window it aborts instantly, something about malloc and "array assertion botched". how might i go about remedying this? only unusual thing i've done recently is use the enlightenment WM last night. | 13:40 |
| k1l | mistralol: in the end its your choice. but its a dumb choice. no matter how hard you try to justify it. | 13:41 |
| thebwt | mistralol: okay confirmed, you can just change the domain name in place and it seems to work well | 13:41 |
| pbx | i can't even log in via ctrl-alt-f2 | 13:41 |
| k1l | mistralol: i bet the issues on 14.04 or 15.04 are solveable. | 13:41 |
| thebwt | mistralol: you know where the repo list is from? | 13:42 |
| k1l | thebwt: that old repos still dont get any updates. they are just in the last state to make an upgrade workable | 13:42 |
| thebwt | k1l: I am VERY aware of that | 13:42 |
| mistralol | k1l: well the 14.04 issue basically requires an upgrade because of a nasty kernel bug with virtualbox. And the 15.04 issue is a kernel lockup | 13:42 |
| cowbacon | when will 15.10 come out? | 13:42 |
| k1l | mistralol: i bet both are solved already. | 13:42 |
| k1l | cowbacon: 22.10. | 13:42 |
| thebwt | cowbacon: the 22nd iirc | 13:43 |
| cowbacon | thanks | 13:43 |
| ikonia | kernel bug with virtualbox ? | 13:43 |
| mistralol | k1l: i cannot risk the 2 days downtime to find that out ;) | 13:43 |
| aydin | hi | 13:43 |
| aydin | is there annyboy | 13:44 |
| ikonia | many people | 13:44 |
| k1l | aydin: yes, just ask | 13:44 |
| aydin | hello | 13:44 |
| quest9 | ada orang indonesian? | 13:44 |
| ikonia | !id | quest9 | 13:44 |
| ubottu | quest9: join ke #ubuntu-id untuk membahas ubuntu dalam bahasa Indonesia | 13:44 |
| mistralol | yup under 14.04 i get kernel lockups as well because of extremly high load in virtualbox and it locks upt he kernel | 13:44 |
| aydin | where is here? | 13:44 |
| ikonia | mistralol: that seems unlikley | 13:44 |
| mistralol | in 15.04 i get a kernel lockup releated to the gfx card :) | 13:44 |
| quest9 | oke | 13:44 |
| aydin | i join to just | 13:44 |
| ikonia | aydin: you're in #ubuntu a generic support channel for ubuntu linux | 13:44 |
| mistralol | ikonia: unless its been fixed | 13:45 |
| boichev | how can I "tail -f" a file and execute a command with every line of text ? | 13:45 |
| jpoole | So I keep running into 'An error was returned while trying to install the kernel into the target system. Kernel package: 'linux-generic' # looking into it more i see linux-generic depends on linux-image-generic, package linux-image-generic is not configured yet. This is a pretty basic preseed.cfg FAI install that I can't seem to figure out how to get around. | 13:45 |
| ikonia | mistralol: seems totally unlikley based on how wide virtualbox and the 14.04 kernel are used in the enterprise | 13:45 |
| aydin | wow | 13:45 |
| mistralol | ikonia: oh yeah and 15.04 also has a virtual box kernel bug as well on anothe rmachine which lock up but only when running ubuntu inside a vm | 13:45 |
| aydin | how manage here | 13:45 |
| ikonia | mistralol: seems unlikley again | 13:45 |
| mistralol | ikonia: so yeah these things do exist | 13:45 |
| aydin | linux is very amazing | 13:45 |
| aydin | i join just | 13:45 |
| ikonia | mistralol: where are these bugs logged | 13:45 |
| mistralol | ikonia: since its basically impossible to actually capture any information on these i have not bothered to log them | 13:46 |
| ikonia | mistralol: of course it's possible | 13:46 |
| aydin | i want to learn linux im matlab programmer | 13:46 |
| ikonia | mistralol: and do you not think others may have had these "bugs" and put details in | 13:46 |
| aydin | how can i learn it | 13:46 |
| ikonia | mistralol: I suspect it's more likley down to your setup/config | 13:46 |
| aydin | is there any book? | 13:46 |
| ikonia | (obviously thats without actually looking into it properly) | 13:47 |
| mistralol | ikonia: no its not i have tried. (btw I know how to use kdump and kgdb and capture stuff from a serial cable) hint: i have writtena few drivers over the years | 13:47 |
| k1l | mistralol: please provide proper errormessages and kernel versions. it sounds more like you just need to justify you running a unsupported release. | 13:47 |
| ikonia | mistralol: still seems very unlikley, that you're locked into this version | 13:47 |
| mistralol | ikonia: well i am locked in because i will get a new machine in 2-3 months | 13:47 |
| mistralol | until then Ic annot risk the downtime of this machine until i get the new one because i need it fomr something else | 13:48 |
| k1l | mistralol: running unsupported releases is , well, not supported. so if you want to do that against all suggestions, its your choice. | 13:48 |
| aydin | kids is there any book about ubuntu linux | 13:48 |
| aydin | ?? | 13:48 |
| thebwt | mistralol doesn't have to justify anything, he/she understands the issue and risks will you guys cut it out | 13:48 |
| mistralol | so i don't know if it has been fixed in 15.04 but i simply cannot risk it (welcome to real world problems) | 13:48 |
| k1l | thebwt: the issue is you and him justifying running EOL releases like its a all day thing. and now all beginners in here think: well than its ok when i do it too. | 13:49 |
| k1l | thebwt: so i bet you and him are not here to support all the issues afterwards caused by EOL systems. | 13:49 |
| mistralol | k1l: yeah but in this case your saying upgrade it will be fine. Yet you don't understand the risks invlved in me doing that | 13:49 |
| I-am-Groot | Guys, I am ubuntu 14.04 32bit. Is there a way to upgrade to 64bit version of ubuntu without a clean install | 13:49 |
| k1l | I-am-Groot: no | 13:50 |
| I-am-Groot | By that, i mean i dont want to reinstall all my programs | 13:50 |
| thebwt | I-am-Groot: negative :( | 13:50 |
| I-am-Groot | Dang! | 13:50 |
| I-am-Groot | I am pretty cool with my 32bit but it looks like many devs are slowly droping support for 32 bits | 13:51 |
| mistralol | k1l: wat do you do for work? | 13:51 |
| dft | I-am-Groot: move all your data to a 2nd disk, then wipe and reinstall x86 on your system disk, restore to the data | 13:51 |
| k1l | I-am-Groot: if the hardware can go 64bit there is no reason to install a 32bit OS today. even distributions are considering dropping the 32bit isos | 13:51 |
| k1l | mistralol: that doesnt matter. | 13:52 |
| I-am-Groot | thanks dft, but i wanna upgrade to 64bit | 13:52 |
| mistralol | k1l: yes it does. Cause if you were about to accept the same risk as I would be by updating you migth actually understand? | 13:52 |
| dft | I-am-Groot: yes, so copy all your data to a 2nd disk then reinstall your OS to x86(ie 64bit) | 13:52 |
| hateball | I-am-Groot: You can however clone your package list, as well as configs located in /etc, for an easier reinstall | 13:52 |
| hateball | !clone | 13:52 |
| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can use the !software package "apt-clone" - See also !automate | 13:52 |
| ikonia | mistralol: what is the actual thing you need/want help with | 13:53 |
| ikonia | (summary) | 13:53 |
| dft | hateball: ooo I like that | 13:53 |
| mistralol | ikonia: ahhh thats resolved ;) | 13:53 |

| Nindustries | Is there a way to let linux cache a directory listing ? | 13:53 |
| Nindustries | I have a slow filesystem mounted | 13:53 |
| ikonia | Nindustries: why is it slow ? | 13:53 |
| ikonia | Nindustries: the file system cache is managed by the kernel | 13:53 |
| Nindustries | it's remote | 13:53 |
| I-am-Groot | Thanks hateball | 13:53 |
| I-am-Groot | One more question, Would the 64bit version of ubuntu require more resources than the 32bit version? | 13:55 |
| kostkon | I-am-Groot, the software centre has a software sync option afaik | 13:55 |
| k1l | I-am-Groot: not really | 13:55 |
| I-am-Groot | i have an i5 processor with 4gb ram | 13:55 |
| dft | I-am-Groot: you'll be fine | 13:55 |
| I-am-Groot | OOkay! :) | 13:55 |
| dft | resource usage really depends on what your running | 13:55 |
| === pkircher_ is now known as pkircher | ||
| dft | and by that I mean services/apps | 13:55 |
| Nindustries | ikonia, ideally I would just want to have a a layer inbetween so /tmp/slow is cached at /tmp/faster | 13:56 |
| I-am-Groot | Yea...that i understand but back in windows, the system requirements for 32bit and 64bit windows varies | 13:56 |
| k1l | I-am-Groot: not on ubuntu | 13:57 |
| ikonia | Nindustries: that does not seem locgical | 13:57 |
| I-am-Groot | thats why i was concerned | 13:57 |
| I-am-Groot | Okay..Thanks | 13:57 |
| ikonia | logical even | 13:57 |
| Nindustries | well, /tmp/slow is a fuse filesystem but it's slow | 13:57 |
| I-am-Groot | I will be back here again once i have downloaded the 64bit iso for a thorough guide | 13:58 |
| I-am-Groot | Would you recomend ubuntu 15 ?? In terms of stability? | 13:59 |
| k1l | I-am-Groot: are you ok with upgrading every 6 months? | 14:00 |
| I-am-Groot | k1l: Not really.. why? | 14:00 |
| === alan_ is now known as Guest84791 | ||
| k1l | I-am-Groot: then go for the 14.04 LTS | 14:01 |
| I-am-Groot | Yes Sir!! | 14:01 |
| I-am-Groot | 14.04 it is | 14:01 |
| k1l | I-am-Groot: on 15.04 you need to upgrade to 15.10 in january 2016 and 6 months later to 16.04 since they got only 9 months support timeframe. 14.04 LTS got 5 years | 14:02 |
| I-am-Groot | Wow!!! | 14:02 |
| theptr | k1l, can you easy upgrade from an lts to a sts ? | 14:02 |
| I-am-Groot | But why is it that way? | 14:02 |
| k1l | theptr: yes. but you need to upgrade to every next release. so 14.04 to 14.10 to 15.04 ..... you cant jump releases. | 14:03 |
| MrBiogene | k1l You will be able to upgrade directly to the next LTS? | 14:04 |
| theptr | k1l, but if 16.04 lts comes out can i upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 lts ? | 14:04 |
| k1l | I-am-Groot: if you want stability use LTS. be fine 5 years. if you want the newest stuff you want to upgrade anyway when the next release is out. so no matter of waiting longer and the devs having the whole work of supporting that much old releases | 14:04 |
| I-am-Groot | Oh okay | 14:05 |
| k1l | MrBiogene: theptr yes, 14.04 to 16.04 is possible in the LTS to LTS upgrade. but its officially the "to 16.04.1" then | 14:05 |
| MrBiogene | ^^ | 14:05 |
| theptr | k1l, then im going to wait until the next lts | 14:05 |
| I-am-Groot | Same here | 14:06 |
| kostkon | I-am-Groot, 14.04.3 comes with the kernel and X from 15.04, in other words, updated drivers for many devices and graphics cards. 14.04.4 will eventually get the 15.10 stack somtime in february | 14:08 |
| I-am-Groot | OOkay..thats great1 | 14:09 |
| I-am-Groot | great!* | 14:09 |
| I-am-Groot | I just found out abt lightdm, and got it to work with this unity theme called MacBuntu. Lightdm shows up after a full reboot but when i logout or timeout and end up on the lockscreen, Ubuntu uses the default logon screen instead of lightdm's logon screen. Anyway to fix that? | 14:11 |
| I-am-Groot | Make lightdm show up when i logout or lock my desktop instead of the default logon sreen | 14:11 |

| ActionParsnip | hi Piperanci | 14:32 |
| _Piperanci | im back bitches | 14:35 |
| zetheroo | I am probably missing something here that is starring me in the face - but how do you manually add a network password to the keyring? | 14:35 |
| _Piperanci | you hump it hard until it connects | 14:36 |
| zetheroo | I see that if I enter the credentials via Nautilus there is a "Network password" entry stored automatically in the Login keyring ... but how to manually add one I can't figure out | 14:37 |
| zetheroo | if I click on the + to add a new entry and select "Stored Password" it doesn't have much there ... just "Description" and "Password" - nowhere to add a smb:// path etc ... | 14:39 |
| andresr_ | hello! how can i set priority between repos when using apt-get install, i mean i want set priority for a specific package to try fist to install from a selected repo but my sources list provide 2 repos for the same package | 14:39 |
| ActionParsnip | andresr_: the priority is set by the versin number available | 14:40 |
| andresr_ | ActionParsnip: package version? | 14:40 |
| andresr_ | ActionParsnip: because i need link to repos, one local apt repo and the official repo, but both have the same package | 14:41 |
| ActionParsnip | andresr_: if one source has version 1 and another has version 2, then you will install version 2 by default | 14:41 |
| andresr_ | andresr: then if i understood you good , i need up the version for my preference | 14:42 |
| andresr_ | ActionParsnip: can i manage that without touch the deb package? i mean if can i use the apt preferences and pinning strategy for this | 14:42 |
| ActionParsnip | andresr_: you wont touch a deb package, apt-get will manage it all for you. | 14:43 |
| ActionParsnip | if you want t pin a package you can, then it will not upgrade | 14:43 |

| wldcordeiro | sudomarize: If that's what you're looking for then you open software center and go to view > new applications in launcher | 15:12 |

| saadin | hi, i have 15.04 on my asus notebook, all my fn+f keys work perfectly excep fn+f5 and fn+f6 which is used for brightness, i tried to see the keycode in with keycode or acpi_listen, but they dont output anything, i tried adding acpi_osi= and acpi_backlight=vendor to boot command but it doesnt work | 15:23 |
| skweek | I keep getting funky graphics glitches... anyone have any ideas? | 15:24 |
| wldcordeiro | skweek: Drivers up to date? | 15:26 |
| skweek | where do I check that? I know i've seen it somewhere before | 15:26 |
| wldcordeiro | Anyone configure Ubuntu with a hidpi screen yet? | 15:26 |
| wldcordeiro | In the launcher there's an "additional drivers" application skweek | 15:27 |
| wldcordeiro | skweek: ^ | 15:28 |
| skweek | I just ran it, it said there where't any drivers available... but clearly i'm seeing graphic glitches :( | 15:29 |
| drmagoo | wldcordeiro: Im running on dual 4k monitors, maybe I can help? | 15:30 |
| EriC^^ | skweek: which driver are you using? type lspci -k | grep -A2 VGA | nc termbin.com 9999 and paste the link here | 15:31 |
| wldcordeiro | skweek: Not sure what else it could be, sorry. EriC^^ looks like he has some ideas. | 15:31 |
| wldcordeiro | Hidpi support should be the next big priority for Ubuntu. Good native support with no config stuff. | 15:32 |
| wldcordeiro | I had to drop my resolution to 1080p to make it usable instead of the 3200x1800 norm of my laptop | 15:32 |
| drmagoo | wldcordeiro: did you try to use scaling ? | 15:32 |
| skweek | http://termbin.com/gx4h | 15:33 |
| drmagoo | I've got 3840x2160 scaled down 1.5 and that gives me a great picture on both monitors | 15:33 |
| wldcordeiro | drmagoo: It's a decent solution but not optimal, lots of apps don't scale properly. | 15:33 |
| wldcordeiro | If I knew the default dpi of Ubuntu the scaling would be easier. | 15:34 |
| drmagoo | wldcordeiro: are you using unity ? | 15:34 |
| wldcordeiro | I know my monitor is 238 dpi, but I'm not sure what the default is for ubuntu, probably 90-96 but if I could figure out I can do the math for the right scale ratio | 15:34 |
| HackerII | 90 | 15:34 |
| wldcordeiro | drmagoo: Yeah I'm on 15.10 b2 or b3 if there is | 15:35 |
| EriC^^ | skweek: looks like it's an intel chipset and it's using the intel driver | 15:35 |
| skweek | is there a problem with that? | 15:35 |
| EriC^^ | skweek: no, i've no idea what you could do to try to fix it though | 15:36 |
| EriC^^ | :/ | 15:36 |
| drmagoo | wldcordeiro: its easy to change the scaling, system-settings/displays (i think) just a slider you move, so that you test and find what is optimal for you | 15:36 |

| worstadmin | Hey guys I've noticed when removing kernels (linux-virtual, linux-3.13.whatever) that I'm have to update grub and update-initramfs -u manually | 15:39 |
| worstadmin | I would expect apt to handle this for me | 15:39 |
| compdoc | worstadmin. how are you removing them? | 15:39 |
| worstadmin | apt-get remove followed by autoremove | 15:40 |
| compdoc | using apt | 15:40 |
| worstadmin | Yes. | 15:40 |
| compdoc | I just do a sudo apt-get autoremove | 15:40 |
| worstadmin | Yes even after that if I reboot it does nothing | 15:40 |
| worstadmin | blank screen | 15:40 |
| worstadmin | however if I update grub and initramfs it works | 15:40 |
| daftykins | worstadmin: is this a VPS? or other online service server VM? which version is it running? | 15:41 |
| compdoc | some ppl use dpkg to remove old kernels, but I dont know if that will update grub, etc | 15:41 |
| daftykins | that'd be a bad idea ^ | 15:41 |

| b3h3m0th | try yourself | 17:08 |
| b3h3m0th | atleast since ubuntu remove upstart | 17:09 |
| tonyyarusso | YamakasY, b3h3m0th: Both of you need to use appropriate language and not give harmful advice. | 17:09 |
| cap | b3h3m0th: What is wrong with upstart? | 17:09 |
| b3h3m0th | tonyyarusso: he was doing actions that could harm users on this forum | 17:09 |
| YamakasY | b3h3m0th: what do you want to do | 17:10 |
| DJones | b3h3m0th: Ignore them, don't rise to to it | 17:10 |
| YamakasY | it's vague, kill it temp, disable it, etc | 17:10 |
| b3h3m0th | cap: upstart is no longer available from 14.04 desktop edition right ? | 17:10 |
| YamakasY | it spawns | 17:10 |
| cap | Most distros use upstart, only a few do not. | 17:10 |
| YamakasY | so, google it | 17:10 |
| cap | b3h3m0th: Really? | 17:10 |
| b3h3m0th | I don't have it in mint 17.2 | 17:10 |
| b3h3m0th | which uses 14.04 | 17:10 |
| tonyyarusso | cap: AFAIK only Ubuntu used Upstart - the rest of the world with with systemd, and Ubuntu is now following. | 17:11 |
| YamakasY | badbodh: next time, don't try to be best boy @ class please | 17:11 |
| tonyyarusso | *went with | 17:11 |
| cap | tonyyarusso: Oh yea, systemd. That's right... I stand corrected. | 17:11 |
| cap | (It was systemd I was thinking of... | 17:11 |
| badbodh | YamakasY, i tried but you tempted me | 17:11 |
| cap | So is upstart on the way out? | 17:12 |
| YamakasY | badbodh: you didn't try anything, don't call the big boys if you didn't said anything yourself, it won't make you better | 17:13 |
| BluesKaj | cap, it's gone in 15.04 | 17:13 |
| YamakasY | BluesKaj: upstart ? | 17:13 |
| BluesKaj | yup, systemd | 17:13 |
| YamakasY | yeah systemd is kinda nice I think | 17:13 |
| YamakasY | I need to check what todo with my puppetscripts tho | 17:13 |
| YamakasY | as I made some upstart scripts for some services | 17:14 |

| BluesKaj | I'm of 2 minds on systemd, I really don't notice any difference | 17:14 |
| YamakasY | BluesKaj: init.d is gone for most ;) | 17:15 |
| cap | BluesKaj: Yea, they both work ok. | 17:15 |
| YamakasY | ok, back to dev | 17:15 |
| cap | YamakasY: Slackware is still hanging on. | 17:15 |
| YamakasY | cap: so we should all move to slackware ? :D | 17:15 |
| YamakasY | I think some people like that and will hang out some flags | 17:16 |
| boriseto | Hi, I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my laptop but it when choosing the partition table, it only shows the hard disk as free, not showing any of the partitions. Is this caused because of UEFI or something? | 17:16 |
| YamakasY | victory! we already said that in 1995 | 17:16 |
| YamakasY | l8er | 17:16 |
| cap | YamakasY: Well, it is simplier | 17:17 |
| OerHeks | boriseto, likely it is GPT | 17:17 |
| daftykins | lets drop the off topic chatter and get back to support only now thanks. | 17:17 |
| OerHeks | boriseto, go into live mode, and install gdisk | 17:17 |
| cap | boriseto: So you are attempting to set up a dual-boot system? | 17:18 |
| boriseto | cap, yes, OerHeks GPT? Okay will install it now (i'm already into Live mode) | 17:19 |
| YamakasY | cap: slack ? | 17:19 |

| boriseto | EriC^^, this won't affect the MBR as is now, right? Because I really wouldn't like to have to lose more time :) | 17:26 |
| boriseto | EriC^^, I mean, it won't affect my partitions? | 17:26 |
| EriC^^ | boriseto: yeah, it should mention if it finds stray gpt, if it says it finds stray gpt tell it to remove the gpt | 17:26 |

| boriseto | EriC^^, Well it says: GPT signatures detected on the disk, but no 0xEE protective partition! | 17:27 |
| boriseto | The GPT signatures are probably left over from a previous partition table. | 17:27 |

| EriC^^ | boriseto: ok, press q | 17:28 |
| EriC^^ | boriseto: try sudo fixparts /dev/sda again | 17:28 |
| boriseto | It gives the same (0xEE partition doesn't start on sector 1) | 17:29 |
| EriC^^ | ok, nothing about stray gpt? | 17:29 |

| lucidguy | Anyone familiar reading Munin performance charts? | 17:37 |

| lucidguy | Pici: can I get your opinion on this box. http://www.solutionsbylinux.com:9000/munin/localhost/index.html | 17:38 |
| lucidguy | Pici: Disk IO is my concern | 17:38 |

| bcx | daftykins: actually there is no vbox drivers here and those are not necessary to use the FB device | 17:41 |
| daftykins | bcx: your setup is not going to work properly with fbdev. | 17:42 |
| daftykins | nevermind, have at it :) | 17:42 |
| Pici | lucidguy: hmmm. I'm not sure actually, sorry :/ | 17:43 |
| Pici | lucidguy: You may want to poke the folks in #ubuntu-server though, maybe they have a better idea | 17:43 |
| Snilen | nobody got any hint about my issue by any chance? :( | 17:43 |
| bcx | daftykins: but aligning the kernel on defaults (instead of 4.2.3-040203-generic) is a good idea | 17:43 |
| daftykins | bcx: that is not the trusty kernel. | 17:43 |
| daftykins | in fact that's not a stable kernel on any release | 17:44 |

| Anthaas | Is there a program I can run that takes two files as an argument and highlights lines that are present in one but not another - the other lines don't necessarily have to be in the same order in each file, just present. | 17:46 |
| bcx | daftykins: btw i previously succeeded in running trusty with this kernel | 17:46 |
| daftykins | Anthaas: 'diff' ? | 17:46 |
| Anthaas | daftykins: Doesn't that compare line by line? | 17:46 |
| daftykins | check out the man page perhaps. | 17:46 |
| imthenachoman | hey guys. apt-get upgrade is showing 200+ packages that have been kept back. i know i can fix it by doing an apt-get dist upgrade but that this can be very dangerous. i don't want to investigate all 200+ packages. anyway i can make a backup of the system so i can undo if dist upgrade breaks something? | 17:47 |
| Pici | Anthaas: it does, if you don't care about order, just sort the files before bringing them into diff then | 17:47 |
| daftykins | imthenachoman: sure, if it's a physical system you have, clonezilla would be ace | 17:48 |
| Anthaas | Pici: Not a bad idea - sort both files into two temporary files and then run diff. | 17:48 |

| daftykins | too late, sorry. | 17:52 |
| Anthaas | Haha this is odd - two files are EXACTLY the same but behave differently | 17:52 |
| Anthaas | This may take a while... | 17:52 |
| daftykins | i bet you've got some whitespace issues | 17:52 |
| daftykins | so formatting | 17:52 |
| Anthaas | daftykins: Is that directed at me? | 17:53 |
| daftykins | yes | 17:53 |
| daftykins | or the other user talking about files | 17:53 |
| pseudonymous | If I install systemd in ubuntu 14.04 will it attempt to use this for *everything* ? I really just have a service or two whose service-files I'd rather write in systemd | 17:53 |
| Anthaas | Whitespace isn't important, it wouldn't affect the behaviour | 17:53 |
| daftykins | ;) | 17:53 |
| daftykins | Anthaas: depends whether they're scripts or configs, you didn't really say - and yes they can in some contexts. | 17:54 |
| k1l | pseudonymous: systemd in 14.04 is not production ready | 17:54 |
| Anthaas | Ahh, I should have specified, the diff thing is the only ubuntu-specific thing I was talking about - I am doing answer set programming. The file will either run or wont. Both run, so whitespace etc is fine. | 17:54 |
| Anthaas | Sorry, I realise now that this is off topic | 17:54 |
| bcx | daftykins: installing vbox drivers on standard kernel does not help http://paste.ubuntu.com/12792513 | 17:55 |

| Anthaas | Oh wait, yes it is. | 17:56 |
| reisio | moreover, things that do not differ, do not produce different results | 17:56 |

| knite | I'm trying to install a package which has a dependency on perlapi-5.18.2. I'm on Vivid, so only perlapi-5.20.1 is there a way to force the package to use the newer version, or is there a way to force Vivid to allow me to install the older version of perlapi? | 18:25 |
| teward | knite: have whoever made the package update the dependencies. If it can't build without that perlapi version, then you're kind of screwed, because you'll break every other Perl package if you try and force-install the older version | 18:27 |
| teward | and that leads to a broken system | 18:27 |
| knite | teward: the package was built by Netflix OSS, so I can't really wait around for them to bump the dep. :-/ | 18:27 |
| gonz123456 | hy i just installed ubunut and i already have the problem that ubuntu didnt focus the window | 18:27 |
| knite | teward: can/should I install the package with nodeps, install the more recent dependency, and, well, see what happens? | 18:28 |
| teward | knite: you could, but you're still going to have issues likely. | 18:29 |
| teward | knite: also note that perlapi is part of perl-base so you *can't* downgrade without massive system breakage. | 18:29 |
| teward | so your only options are to *try* what you suggested, and possibly break your system | 18:29 |
| teward | or don't use the package until it's updated. | 18:29 |
| knite | teward: to be clear, if I try what I suggested, it should at worst break the package I'm testing with altered deps, not my whole system? unless of course the package is naughty. | 18:30 |
| knite | if I use the correct Vivid version of perlapi, I mean. | 18:30 |

| reisio | MateUser123: sure, but why | 18:55 |
| mrkiko | reisio: at least 1) when my braille display isn't working properly or I changed my braille display from a model to another (e.g.: when I move home of back university), 2) when I am waiting for my bluetooth braille display to connect, 3) when using a computer without a braille display due to different reasons, 4) I might find it useful to use in a boot loader to know when the system is ready to boot a kerne | 18:56 |
| mrkiko | l, 5) cron jobs and no beep supporti n audio card, and so on | 18:56 |
| MateUser123 | reisio: To prevent other users from moving them around or deleting them. | 18:56 |
| reisio | mrkiko: how's that more useful than an ordinary speaker | 18:56 |
| reisio | MateUser123: but why | 18:56 |
| MateUser123 | reisio: Because normal users are idiots and if something gets moved they freak out. | 18:57 |
| RustyJ | mrkiko, you use strictly command line braille reader/translator? | 18:57 |
| mrkiko | reisio: guessing it depends on how much your bios likes ordinary speakers connected to audio cards... | 18:57 |

| MateUser123 | reisio: chattr does let you use wilcards so that is cool. It doesn't keep icons in place though. I can still move them around, but I cannot delete any which is good. There has to be a way to keep them in place. | 19:09 |
| wileee | t4nk850, If it is a ntfs, I would have windows run a right click check on it, a broken table is not anything good, if that is the case. | 19:10 |

| MonkeyDust | joos this is the subuntu support channel. do you have question? | 20:10 |
| MonkeyDust | a* | 20:11 |
| plytro | adamaN: ah so you're running an unsupported version of ubuntu still | 20:11 |
| EriC^^ | t4nk850: ok, press p | 20:11 |
| Guest89667 | How can I know if a ppa is trustworthy? Can I see it's code? For example opencv ppk by some random guy: https://launchpad.net/~gijzelaar/+archive/ubuntu/opencv2.4 | 20:11 |
| adamaN | :( yes | 20:11 |
| t4nk850 | EriC^^: it shows all the folder there | 20:11 |
| MonkeyDust | Guest89667 contact Gijzelaar | 20:11 |
| plytro | personal proxy or work proxy? | 20:11 |
| Guest89667 | MonkeyDust, I'm sure if Gijzelaar is a virus maker he will tell me ;) | 20:12 |
| joos | i'm a virus maker! | 20:12 |
| plytro | Guest89667: he hasn't updated that in 3+ years | 20:13 |
| Guest89667 | plytro, so not a good idea to use it? | 20:13 |
| joos | is this an ubuntu fan room? | 20:13 |
| joos | im a huge fan of ubuntu | 20:13 |
| viju | Hi, when I double click eclipse, it says java 6 not supported try 1.7 or later. I have 1.8 installed and I can only run eclipse installer through command line but not by double clicking on nautilus explorer. | 20:14 |
| EriC^^ | t4nk850: ok, you have 2 options, either you can copy the data you need somewhere by pressing C or c (one copies the current dir, the other copies whatever have been selected with the right arrow) or you can try to write this partition table, and access the data as normal, it's up to you and at your own risk | 20:14 |
| Guest89667 | plytro, so if I installed it... how do I completely get rid of it from the pc? | 20:14 |
| t4nk850 | EriC^^: which one is the most save option? | 20:15 |
| EriC^^ | t4nk850: copying the data using C or c is probably safer | 20:15 |
| salah | hey can help me please | 20:17 |
| t4nk850 | EriC^^: where it will copy data to? I selected "a" to select all files then "c" to copy them | 20:17 |
| MonkeyDust | Guest89667 ppa's are not supported here, you use them at your own risk | 20:17 |
| joos | who here loves ubuntu! | 20:17 |
| joos | :D | 20:17 |
| MonkeyDust | joos stop | 20:17 |
| joos | i remember when i got my first ubuntu laptop | 20:17 |
| plytro | Guest89667: have you looked for opencv in the official repos? | 20:17 |
| EriC^^ | t4nk850: it should give you the option where to save to | 20:17 |
| joos | from DeLL | 20:17 |
| MonkeyDust | joos type /j #ubuntu-offtopic | 20:17 |

| joos | what does ubuntu mean ? | 20:21 |
| joos | is it a german word ? | 20:21 |
| daftykins | joos: also off topic. | 20:21 |
| EriC^^ | t4nk850: type gksu nautilus in another terminal, and go to your home dir and check the data is there and actually there ( not empty files ) | 20:21 |
| joos | what is on topic................................. | 20:21 |
| plytro | joos, thank you for successfully engaging and enraging so many people in the channel | 20:22 |

| joos | why ? | 20:22 |
| joos | i am supporting ubuntu | 20:22 |
| viju | daftykins, It's mostly related with OS, so I asked here | 20:22 |
| viju | And yes I have asked there too. | 20:22 |
| daftykins | viju: i know that, but i'm suggesting others may have solved it since they use it :) | 20:23 |
| viju | Ah | 20:23 |
| joos | i feel bad for totalbiscuit | 20:23 |
| joos | his cancer spread ............................ | 20:24 |
| t4nk850 | EriC^^: yeah it has the data there too | 20:24 |
| EriC^^ | t4nk850: ok, if you're sure everything is there, then write the partition table in testdisk | 20:24 |
| t4nk850 | EriC^^: it hasn't completed yet, I think it will take a bit time since its big data there | 20:26 |
| adamaN | plytro: thanks | 20:32 |

| waters33637 | Hi .. anyone got a chance to help with a new install display X11 problem? I cant get the correct resolution on a sony vaio - vgc-js210j ... | 20:35 |
| daftykins | waters33637: pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 20:36 |
| === huscurian|away is now known as huscurian | ||
| fancyfetus | Hey guys, I'm trying to remove ubuntu from my computer | 20:37 |
| huscurian | phunyguy: thanks for the notice | 20:37 |
| fancyfetus | My bios and the installation is EFI | 20:37 |
| MonkeyDust | fancyfetus boot a live dvd or usb, use gparted, delete ubuntu partition | 20:38 |
| fancyfetus | UEFI* | 20:38 |
| fancyfetus | MonkeyDust: | 20:38 |
| fancyfetus | The ubuntu partition has already been deleted, the problem is I only boot into grub now, even after using a windows recovery disk to fix mbr | 20:38 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: boot a live usb | 20:39 |
| fancyfetus | ubuntu live usb, right? | 20:39 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 20:39 |
| fancyfetus | ah, shit... my ubuntu installation is in windows and I can't access it >.> | 20:40 |
| daftykins | language please | 20:40 |
| EriC^^ | type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 | 20:40 |
| EriC^^ | say what? | 20:40 |
| EriC^^ | oh | 20:40 |
| fancyfetus | ubuntu iso, I mean** | 20:40 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, try pressing esc when the pc boots and look for boot options | 20:41 |
| daftykins | waters33637: do you need a little more instruction on the info i'm asking for? are you able to reach a working desktop? | 20:41 |
| fancyfetus | EriC^^, You'll have to give me some time to set up an ubuntu live usb. I have no way of booting into windows or ubuntu right now :P | 20:41 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: if you get a boot options you could manually select the windows efi | 20:42 |
| waters33637 | X11 log data on pastebin ... http://pastebin.com/PZb4zuLK | 20:43 |
| fancyfetus | EriC^^, I don't have that option in my bios. The only boot options I have are: Windows Boot Manager (which loads grub), ubuntu, and some random usb devices I have plugged in | 20:43 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: do you get grub or grub rescue> ? | 20:43 |
| fancyfetus | grub> | 20:43 |
| EriC^^ | ok, type ls (hd0,gpt1)/ | 20:44 |
| daftykins | waters33637: can you also pastebin: "xrandr" | 20:44 |
| fancyfetus | EriC^^, sure thing! | 20:44 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: does it say EFI ? | 20:44 |
| fancyfetus | "Invalid sector size 0. | 20:44 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: try ls | 20:45 |
| waters33637 | http://pastebin.com/wgfcVBQ5 | 20:45 |
| fancyfetus | lots of stuff | 20:45 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: try ls -l , does it say efi or fat32 anywhere? | 20:46 |
| fancyfetus | (hd0) (hd1) (hd1,msdos1) (hd2) (hd2,gpt3) (hd2,gpt2) (hd2,gpt1) (hd3) (hd3,msdos1) | 20:46 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, type ls (hd2,gpt1)/ | 20:46 |
| waters33637 | daftykins : http://pastebin.com/wgfcVBQ5 | 20:46 |
| fancyfetus | ls -l isn;t a thing :( | 20:46 |
| fancyfetus | "unknown filesystem" | 20:46 |
| daftykins | waters33637: weird, it seems pretty convinced your internal display is 1600x1200 which of course is a 4:3 aspect, is it meant to be a widescreen resolution? | 20:46 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: hmm try insmod part_gpt | 20:47 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: and insmod fat | 20:48 |
| waters33637 | yes .. i right now have a black bar running down the right side ... that is not part of the desktop ... i think the res should be something more like 1680x1050 | 20:48 |
| daftykins | waters33637: does it change if you don't have your VGA external display connected? | 20:48 |
| fancyfetus | done both, no output | 20:48 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, try ls (hd2,gpt1)/ | 20:48 |
| waters33637 | thats it .. i dont have one connected | 20:48 |
| daftykins | wat | 20:48 |
| fancyfetus | same result as before EriC^^ | 20:48 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, try ls (hd2,gpt2)/ | 20:49 |
| fancyfetus | efi/ bootsect.bak | 20:49 |
| fancyfetus | yay! :D | 20:49 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, try ls (hd2,gpt2)/efi/Boot/ | 20:50 |
| daftykins | waters33637: has it ever worked normally? did the live session installer display ok? | 20:50 |
| waters33637 | nope | 20:50 |
| waters33637 | always had this problem with anything *nix ... | 20:51 |
| daftykins | waters33637: ah it's an all-in-one thing, mmk | 20:51 |
| waters33637 | just looking for a way to trick x11 into using the full screen ... not caring about playing games or anything | 20:51 |
| fancyfetus | EriC^^: ./ ../ bootx64.efi bootx64.efi.backup | 20:52 |
| t4nk850 | EriC^^: thanks mate you are a big help.. still copying is in progress I think it will take few hours to complete that: wiill add partition when its done. thanks once again | 20:52 |
| EriC^^ | t4nk850: ok, no problem | 20:52 |
| waters33637 | yep ... sucks ... ... if it wasn't free .. i would have had to pass it up | 20:52 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, type | 20:52 |
| EriC^^ | set root='hd2,gpt2' | 20:52 |
| daftykins | waters33637: could you pastebin "dmesg" ? | 20:52 |
| fancyfetus | done | 20:52 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: try chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi.backup | 20:53 |
| waters33637 | http://pastebin.com/63Y7XbZB ... i also have no audio ... so im thinking chipset driver? | 20:54 |
| daftykins | waters33637: i found - https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33691 | 20:54 |

| xentity1x | Hi I'm getting a ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error when I try to go to netflix.com. All other websites work. Anyone have a fix? | 20:55 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: what's the overall idea? | 20:55 |
| EriC^^ | did it error out? | 20:55 |
| fancyfetus | /EndEntire | 20:55 |
| daftykins | waters33637: not sure if this will work for you, but there is a newer BIOS - https://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=VGCJS210J&template_id=1®ion_id=1&tab=download#/downloadTab | 20:55 |
| Ben64 | xentity1x: open a terminal and type "host netflix.com" | 20:55 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, try typing boot | 20:56 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: what's on the other 2 hdd's ? | 20:56 |
| fancyfetus | filepath: /ACPI(a0341d0,0)PCI(2,1f)/Sata(0, ffff, 0) | 20:56 |
| waters33637 | thanks for the help ... let me see what i can do .. thanks | 20:56 |
| xentity1x | Ben64: Host netflix.com not found: 2(SERVFAIL) | 20:56 |
| fancyfetus | ^Still pertaining to the last command. | 20:56 |
| mistralol | 20:56 | |
| Ben64 | xentity1x: then pick a better dns server | 20:57 |
| xentity1x | Ben64: Not sure how to do that. Also don't know how my dns server was changed. It was working last night. | 20:58 |
| Ben64 | xentity1x: wasn't changed, your dns server just sucks | 20:58 |
| Ben64 | xentity1x: open the network connections settings thing, put in 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for dns server | 20:59 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: did you try typing boot ? | 20:59 |
| xentity1x | Ben64, Is this under ipv4 settings? | 21:01 |
| Ben64 | xentity1x: maybe, not sure | 21:01 |
| xentity1x | Does anybody know how to change my dns server? | 21:02 |
| daftykins | you were just told | 21:02 |
| xentity1x | daftkins, sorry still not clear | 21:02 |
| daftykins | IPv4 settings yes | 21:02 |
| daftykins | then you need to change an entry labelled 'DHCP' to 'Manual' | 21:02 |
| daftykins | or preferably DHCP with manual DNS | 21:03 |
| mbach | hi | 21:03 |
| reisio | hi yourself | 21:03 |
| xentity1x | daftykins, okay so i set dcp settings to manual. I try putting in 8.8.8.8 under dns server and it doesnt give me the option to save. | 21:03 |
| djukan | hello, I need some help. I want to change language of GnuCash..can someone help me? | 21:04 |
| daftykins | try and read the screen and understand what it's after, on fully manual you require: IP, netmask, gateway, DNS. | 21:04 |
| Ben64 | yeah, probably best to just do manual dns | 21:04 |
| Ben64 | and the rest stay auto | 21:04 |
| xentity1x | daftykins, i'm sorry I don't know what those things refer to. | 21:04 |
| djukan | hello, I need some help. I want to change language of GnuCash..can someone help me? | 21:05 |
| Ben64 | we can't see what you can see, but i know theres not that many options | 21:05 |
| daftykins | xentity1x: they are fields in the GUI window you are currently meant to be staring at... | 21:05 |
| daftykins | xentity1x: essentially the ability to read is the key here. | 21:05 |
| wileee | rim shot here | 21:05 |
| daftykins | maybe share a screenshot if you're really stuck | 21:05 |
| djukan | i need some instructions.. | 21:07 |
| fancyfetus | EriC^^, sorry I stepped away for a second | 21:07 |
| xentity1x | daftykins, I am reading the descriptions. I just don't know what they refer to. Do I put my computers ip address in? Am I manually setting an ip address now? I unfortunately never heard of a netmask or gateway before. | 21:07 |
| djukan | anyone? | 21:07 |
| fancyfetus | EriC^^, boot worked :D | 21:07 |
| fancyfetus | I'm into windows. | 21:07 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, cool | 21:07 |
| fancyfetus | Was that a permanent change? Do I still have grub installed? | 21:07 |
| wileee | djukan, Free volunteer help, you have to be patient is all. | 21:07 |
| daftykins | xentity1x: http://askubuntu.com/questions/2321/what-is-the-proper-way-to-change-the-dns-ip | 21:08 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: when you get into windows open an administrator command prompt and type diskpart | 21:08 |
| fancyfetus | done | 21:08 |
| djukan | ok..first time here, i wasnt sure you see my message :) | 21:08 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: no, it's just temporary, you need to copy /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi.backup over the bootmgfw.efi file in that dir, and /EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi.backup over bootx64.efi | 21:08 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, type list | 21:09 |
| fancyfetus | list Disk? | 21:09 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 21:09 |
| fancyfetus | 4 disks | 21:09 |
| liquidmetal | I'm trying to run some Cuda code on my machine and it says it cannot find a compatible device... Any advice on how to debug this issue further? | 21:09 |
| EriC^^ | ok, type sel 0 or 1 or .. | 21:09 |
| Codmadnesspro | Is there a way I can run a batch file on ubuntu? | 21:09 |
| djukan | wileee, you tell me when is the time | 21:09 |
| fancyfetus | EriC^^, am I selecting my boot HDD? | 21:09 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: yeah the hdd that has the efi | 21:09 |
| fancyfetus | done | 21:10 |
| bprompt | Codmadnesspro: why you need that anyway? | 21:10 |
| EriC^^ | ok, type list vol | 21:10 |
| fancyfetus | 3 partitions. Recovery, System and Primary | 21:10 |
| liquidmetal | ComradeHaz`, no - you need to use the Bash scripting language. If I recall right, it's different from windows | 21:10 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: we need the efi partition, the fat32 one | 21:10 |
| OerHeks | djukan, their site give some help http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Locale_Settings#Notes_for_Ubuntu_users | 21:10 |
| wileee | djukan, Ah, I think the channel bot says 10 min, but just be thoughtful really. Welcome here, lots of great help. ;) | 21:10 |
| joshua__ | hi im new to this thing | 21:10 |
| fancyfetus | uhh hang on | 21:11 |
| joshua__ | first time using ubuntu | 21:11 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: it's probably the system one | 21:11 |
| daftykins | joshua__: support questions only in here, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 21:11 |
| Codmadnesspro | bprompt, steam bot | 21:11 |
| fancyfetus | Yeah, it's the system one. | 21:11 |
| fancyfetus | Selected | 21:12 |
| djukan | OerHeks, i tried everything, no good | 21:12 |
| xentity1x | daftykins, okay so I added the additional dns servers under automatic. However, I still can't access the website. | 21:12 |
| OerHeks | djukan, after change, logout/login again, i guess, to make it work | 21:12 |
| joshua__ | is there a way to rebuild the index on here | 21:12 |
| joshua__ | without ruining everything | 21:12 |
| bprompt | Codmadnesspro: dunno what that means | 21:12 |
| Ben64 | joshua__: here? | 21:12 |
| joshua__ | i am trying to put icons in the desktop window | 21:13 |
| joshua__ | rather than on the side | 21:13 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, type sel part 1 or 2.. if you haven't already | 21:13 |
| Codmadnesspro | bprompt, it basically runs a steam bot that does trading for me | 21:13 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: then type assign letter=e | 21:13 |
| Codmadnesspro | although I can run it on windows, I want to move it to my ubuntu server | 21:13 |
| Ben64 | joshua__: you need to fully explain what you want | 21:13 |
| djukan | OerHeks, thats the thing I cant find | 21:13 |
| Ben64 | Codmadnesspro: run it in a vm or make a new script | 21:13 |
| intron_ | кто сомной в порнухе отснимиться | 21:13 |
| fancyfetus | LOL, EriC^^, that's so cool! | 21:14 |
| Codmadnesspro | good idea thanks | 21:14 |
| joshua__ | i want to put my icons in the desktop rather than on the side bar, that is pretty specific | 21:14 |
| daftykins | xentity1x: repeat the instructions you were given which showed errors, if it still does error, restart. | 21:14 |
| joshua__ | why doesnt it work | 21:14 |
| OerHeks | Codmadnesspro, steambots are illegal. | 21:14 |
| Ben64 | joshua__: good luck with that | 21:14 |
| daftykins | joshua__: they didn't make that very easy is my understanding. | 21:14 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: ok, you can't access the e: partition yet right? | 21:14 |
| Ben64 | OerHeks: they aren't | 21:14 |
| Codmadnesspro | OerHeks, ones that just take automatic trades and pushes the trade to my site? | 21:15 |
| EriC^^ | actually wait | 21:15 |
| OerHeks | djukan, if you cannot find logout on the top right panel, reboot | 21:15 |
| EriC^^ | fancyfetus: type exit in diskpart, and then type dir e:\ | 21:15 |
| wileee | joshua__, I believe the unity-tweak tool has a tab for that, you need to install the app. | 21:15 |
| joshua__ | ty lee | 21:15 |
| djukan | OerHeks, you mean com...I restarted it couple of times | 21:15 |

| OerHeks | djukan, sudo apt-get install localpurge # or use softwarecenter | 21:28 |
| lickalott | Tuzlo, it should be already there. | 21:28 |
| fancyfetus | EriC^^, "You have been denied permission to access this folder." Then something about a security tab. | 21:28 |
| lickalott | you may need specific files for a particular printer but iirc the generic cups libs exist on the default install | 21:28 |

| fancyfetus | It is, I can see it in File Explorer | 21:36 |
| bigmodz54 | badbodh: (Running ubuntu on an older system is okay right. it will work well?) | 21:36 |

| badbodh | bigmodz54, scroll up and do the thing | 22:27 |
| bigmodz54 | The folder is full of .conf files | 22:28 |
| badbodh | yes. look for the one with "blacklist" name | 22:29 |
| daftykins | blacklist.conf | 22:29 |
| badbodh | daftykins, it could be of another name too, but the word "blacklist" will be mentioned | 22:30 |

| antonio_ | I know there are two versions of Virtualbox for Ubuntu. Not sure which one I need to install. I need USB support - that much I know | 23:08 |
| reisio | there used to be two | 23:08 |
| reisio | now the usb support is supplemental to the one | 23:08 |
| antonio_ | reisio: What do you mean? | 23:08 |
| bekks | antonio_: Install the latest official version from the official vbox website and install the extension pack. | 23:08 |
| reisio | antonio_: there's only two now | 23:08 |
| reisio | I'd install virtualbox from the universe repo | 23:09 |
| reisio | and virtualbox-ext-pack | 23:09 |
