[00:01] <bprompt> erxr3:    yeap, that's what I was doing, the filesystem was "raw", but yes, ddrescue does a "raw copy" of cluster per cluster, whenever it finds any errors, tries to give it a fix, if it can't be fixed, it skips it and continues, and copies all non-corrupted data it can along the way ,   -d (direct access) -f ( force)
[00:01] <tnecniv> Hi! I am running ubuntu 14.04 with two nVidia graphics cards. One is a 9800 for standard graphics, and the other is a Tesla K20 for scientific computing. After installing the drivers for both, I am stuck in some low resolution graphics mode, as if it cant detect my monitor. Any insight
[00:01] <tnecniv> '
[00:01] <tnecniv> '?
[00:01] <tnecniv> sorry
[00:03] <erxr3> TJ-, so if I have a file named partition.img, I guess I'd need to go to its folder first, and then apply the command like this: sudo testdisk -log partition.dd ?
[00:04] <TJ-> erxr3: if the file isn't owned by root, you could just do "testdisk -log /path/to/partition.dd"
[00:04] <erxr3> bprompt, sure I'd try ddrescue, too. you mean the disk image I created is also "raw" copy?
[00:05] <erxr3> TJ- ah, I see, I will try which one works, thank you very much!
[00:05] <ubuntu_> TJ-, Hoe can a factory rom and entire sytem be backed up before using an android phone?
[00:05] <ubuntu_> s/hoe/how
[00:06] <TJ-> ubuntu_: That isn't an Ubuntu support question. Try asking in ##android
[00:06] <ubuntu_> The last android I bought has been blasted with garbage software.
[00:06] <bprompt> erxr3:    hehehe, nope, that would put you on square one and defeat the idea of the utility =),  the source was "raw", the copy was a "fixed" version of it, with valid partition table info as well as data
[00:09] <erxr3> bprompt, in the command "ddrescue -f -d  SOURCE TARGET" the source is the image's path, and the target would point to the folder where the recovered files would be saved, I presume?
[00:10] <erxr3> bprompt, if they are so, would it be then typed like this:  ddrescue -f -d  ~/Documents/partition.img media/myuser/myrecoveryfolder ?
[00:11] <bprompt> erxr3:    nope, device in this case, use "lsblk" to see who is who, but something like -> ddrescue -d -f /dev/sda4 /dev/sdc3  <-
[00:11] <erxr3> bprompt, but how does it know which image where is to recover?
[00:11] <erxr3> and where to
[00:11] <bprompt> hehe
[00:11] <bprompt> erxr3:   as many folks here pointed out, chek the manpages :), but the arguments order, of course
[00:12] <bprompt> just like "dd" does btw
[00:13] <bprompt> well.. to be fair.. dd uses if= and of= arguments... so...hmmm anyhow. for ddrescue is SOURCE TARGET order
[00:13] <erxr3> bprompt, my source is not even a partition, but an image of it
[00:13] <erxr3> how can I mention it as /dev/sda4
[00:13] <bprompt> erxr3:     that'd do as well
[00:17] <erxr3> TJ- testdisk returned a message like "Partition sector doesn't have the endmark 0xAA55", yet quick search is still possible..does this message have a significance?
[00:17] <erxr3> the message came right at start
[00:20] <TJ-> erxr3: the MBR (sector 0) should end with 0xAA55 (bytes 0x1FE-0x1FF) that's the partition signature
[00:20] <erxr3> TJ- does it point to any failure?
[00:21] <TJ-> erxr3: if it is missing, then the PC BIOS would assume there was no partition table there
[00:21] <erxr3> TJ- would that make testdisk recovery void?
[00:22] <TJ-> erxr3: testdisk should correct that
[00:22] <erxr3> TJ- oh, that is good to hear :)
[00:23] <andystar> I would like to isntall qtractor, but it says that it is dependent on librubberband2.
[00:23] <andystar> I would like to isntall qtractor, but it says that it is dependent on librubberband2.  All I can find in the repositories is librubberband2v5.
[00:24] <TJ-> andystar: which ubuntu release?
[00:25] <andystar> TJ-, I am using Xubuntu 15.10, with the kxstudio repositories.
[00:26] <TJ-> according to apt-cache qtractor Depends: librubberband2v5
[00:27] <erxr3> TJ- there is a menu option that says "Write TestDisk MBR code to first sector"...does this relate to the above missing endmark message?
[00:27] <TJ-> erxr3: yes
[00:27] <erxr3> TJ- should I select it then?
[00:28] <andystar> TJ-, So maybe if I remove the kxstudio repsositories or disable them, I can install the standard version of qtractor.
[00:28] <jeffrey_f> I was upgrading 15.04 to 15.10.  I somehow excaped from the upgrade when looking at a DIFF from a config.  How do I get it to complete?
[00:29] <TJ-> andystar: not sure, "apt-cache policy qtractor" should show the candidates
[00:32] <erxr3> TJ- I chose this option, and it says a new code has been written, you have to reboot for it to take effect..I hope I havent blundered something
[00:32] <andystar> It shows two packages from kxstudio, and one from ubuntu's wily distrobution.
[00:37] <andystar> http://askubuntu.com/questions/92019/how-to-install-specific-ubuntu-packages-with-exact-version
[00:38] <erxr3> trying the reboot
[00:39] <andystar> TJ-, This seems to have information about how to install the package that I want.
[00:43] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> Hello
[00:44] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I put Ubuntu on a usb, and installed it on a partion, and when i rebooted it, i didn't get a boot menu, just straight into Windows 7
[00:45] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> Can anyone help me?
[00:46] <andystar> OmegaLeFoxWolf, From your description, I can not immediately guess the cause.
[00:47] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> It said it installed in the installer, but in Windows 7 it locked up the partion, and it's empty
[00:48] <andystar> From Windows 7 you can't see the Linux partition.
[00:48] <andystar> Have you tried looking at the partition from the USB stick?
[00:49] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I'm not really a tech savy user for stuff like this.
[00:49] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: Grub ( bootloder ) installed to the USB .. likely  . one can boot the liveUSB and install grub to the hard drive . Some Win 7 are UEFI, is this ?
[00:50] <andystar> I mean, boot up the computer from the USB, and see if you can see what is on the partition that you think you installed Ubuntu on.
[00:50] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> BIOS https://www.asus.com/Notebooks/X44H/
[00:51] <profetik777> First version of ubuntu used and impressions. Go.
[00:53] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I'm going to reinstall it, to the certain partion i have made for it (87 GB)
[00:54] <mhmd> hi
[00:55] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: Might be but to install grub. As advised boot the liveUSB and in terminal look at partitions ' sudo parted -l ' .
[00:56] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I'm installing it alongside Windows 7, and i go to the advanced Partioning tool
[00:57] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> What do i put for "Use as: "
[00:59] <andystar> OmegaLeFoxWolf, You can log back on to Xchat after you have booted from your LiveUSB.
[01:00] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I'm on my secondary computer, the one I'm not installing it on
[01:00] <beepie> OmegaLeFoxWolf, you mean the one with "Winbloze" ?
[01:00] <beepie> XD
[01:01] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> Haha very funny -_-
[01:02] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> But i have to reinstall it, i reformated the Partion, but when installing it in Advanced Partioning tool, when i go to use the certain partion, what do i click for "Use as:" ?
[01:04] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, eh
[01:04] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, make sure yuo did a backup first
[01:04] <binkydaclown> :)
[01:04] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, you can use "/"
[01:04] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, ext3 or ext4
[01:05] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, i'm assuming you know at least something about partitioning
[01:05] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I just don't know what system to use it as
[01:08] <binkydaclown> OmegaLeFoxWolf, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBCHsgry2RQ
[01:08] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: As you hane manually partitioned. did you provide a /swap partion ?
[01:09] <Bashing-om> hane/have*
[01:09] <erxr3> can you help me know if this command is correct please:  "ddrescue -n --no-split ~/Documents/partition.img /dev/sdc2/recovery" , given that the destination drive is  /dev/sdc2, and the recovered files will be collected in the folder named "recovery" ?
[01:10] <erxr3> sorry, adding logfile, too: ddrescue -n --no-split ~/Documents/partition.img /dev/sdc2/recovery  logfile
[01:10] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> No i didn't make a swap partion
[01:12] <erxr3> or like this: ddrescue -n --no-split ~/Documents/partition.img /dev/sdc2/recovery  partition.log
[01:12] <erxr3> ?
[01:13] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: How much ram ? and do you intend to be able to hibernate in ubuuntu ?
[01:14] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> 2 gigs of ram, Yes
[01:16] <Bashing-om> OmegaLeFoxWolf: Then a /swap partition is required, slightly larger than installed ram in size . Be aware there is a 4 primary partition limit . You may be hitting this limit if you have not made up an 'extended' partition .
[01:19] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I have Windows 7 partion, Android, And Ubuntu (and another one by windows i cant delete)
[01:21] <zykotick9> Bashing-om: <sidenote> i'd suggest not refering to swap as /swap.  Swap is not actually mounted to the root / partition...
[01:24] <Bashing-om> zykotick9: Open to education.. as 'swap' is in fact a partition, is it not proper to refer to it as '/swap' - with the leading / denoteing it as a partition ?
[01:26] <zykotick9> Bashing-om: swap is a partition yes, but it's not "mounted" it's swapon/swapoff - there is no /swap directory...  /foo/bar suggests a obsolute path, swap doesn't have one...
[01:26] <erxr3> hello, I cannot find nowhere any clear information on how I will use ddrescue on a "disk image" to recover them in a "folder"  on "another drive"..already complex as it is, when I look for these particular aspects, the search gives no results.
[01:26] <Razzdoll> hi all
[01:27] <Bashing-om> zykotick9: K :)
[01:28] <Razzdoll> everytime i run a program or command its a bit laggy. would it be my hardware?
[01:30] <Razzdoll> and when i go on a website. the browser tells me a site isnt found or network unreachable. but i think its just the browser
[01:31] <Bashing-om> Razzdoll: Possible, how nuch ram and what desktop environment are you running ? There are minimum requirements .
[01:34] <OmegaLeFoxWolf> I reinstalled it, and it boots up into a purple boot menu with several options the first being Ubuntu and the last being Windows 7
[01:36] <Razzdoll> Bashing-om, Gnome 3.14.1, i5 3.20ghz, 15992 ram.
[01:36] <erxr3> can you please tell me if ddrescue is just for creating the copy of a drive as an image file, or does it also actively recover files?
[01:37] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: you can use photorec for data recovery
[01:37] <Bashing-om> Razzdoll: Should fly. I expect that is 16 Gigs ram .
[01:38] <erxr3> lotuspsychje, I tried testdisk, which is basically the same. and I tried testdisk on the disk image I created by ddrescue. ye
[01:38] <Razzdoll> Bashing-om,  something is strange then. maybe its the software I use. Idk
[01:38] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: yep photorec is part of testdisk
[01:39] <erxr3> yet I was told that ddrescue could be better than testdisk. and up to now, I didnt understand if ddrescue is just for disk imaging or to rescue files actively
[01:39] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: didnt test ddrescue myself, is it added by ppa?
[01:40] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: i got good experiences with photorec, and recovered data from far away ages with it
[01:40] <Bashing-om> Razzdoll: " network unreachable " is this all the time in your browser ? Does ' ping -c3 ubuntu.com ' complete ?
[01:40] <erxr3> and nowhere it is clear. all you see is this general expression: "ddrescue parameter source target logfile"..this is what I used to create disk image.
[01:42] <erxr3> yes, photorec and testdisk helped me a lot, too..but in this case either the image file is empty, or I need another tool
[01:43] <lotuspsychje> erxr3: why do you want to recover data from an image and not the whole hd?
[01:43] <jonta> Seems that after a recent dist-upgrade to 14.10, I can't install anything else. I suspect initscripts is at fault. Attempt at installing traceroute: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/13054360/
[01:43] <Jonta> Where do I go from here? :)
[01:44] <erxr3> lotuspsychje, I dont want to touch the original drive.
[01:45] <lotuspsychje> Jonta: 14.10 is end of life
[01:45] <lotuspsychje> Jonta: install a version from topic please
[01:46] <Jonta> lotuspsychje: Tried. Also doesn't work.
[01:46] <lotuspsychje> Jonta: a clean install is advise from here
[01:46] <Jonta> :/
[01:46] <Na3iL> Hey I've a problem with vim, when I type vim in the terminal it doesn"t open
[01:46] <Jonta> No simple rollback in initscripts-version then?
[01:46] <Jonta> Or manual install?
[01:46] <lotuspsychje> !eolupgrade | Jonta or try this
[01:46] <Na3iL> in the other hand I can open vi & vim.tiny
[01:47] <Jonta> lotuspsychje: Thanks
[01:47] <lotuspsychje> Na3iL: the #vim guys surely know :p
[01:48] <Na3iL> Okay thanks lotuspsychje
[01:49] <Razzdoll> Bashing-om, yes. I mean, when I enter an address, it goes, but sometimes the browser says Not Found or Unreachable, and then it proceeds.
[01:51] <erxr3> so my question basically is; I created a disk image with ddrescue, and tried testdisk on it. it didnt work and because I also heard that ddrescue can recover files, I want to try that. but I see that it has the same command line format that I used for creating disk image. does ddrescue really recover lost files, too, or does it just create disk images? if former, then how can I adjust the command to recover files from a dis
[01:51] <erxr3> k image to an external drive?
[01:59] <tsimonq2> I need some help...I screwed up...I deleted everything except for folder contents in /etc/apt

[03:13] <Abe> hello
[03:13] <TJ-> daemon_pid_007: so, ubuntu-server 12.04, or 14.04, although 12.04 is a bit long in the tooth now. The next LTS will be 16.04, which is the current in-development
[03:13] <wiko> from Puerto Rico
[03:13] <daemon_pid_007> Yes i wnat to setup ubuntu server, but is it wise to do so or should i just go with some other distribution
[03:13] <Abe> get 14.04 its longer supportet
[03:14] <wiko> someone here know how   setup vpnbook?
[03:14] <fusioned> anyone else here running Ubuntu on a Chromebook?

[03:15] <wafflejock> ubuntu hi
[03:15] <Abe> wafflejock: I know until 2019 ;) I think I'll skip 16.04
[03:15] <fusioned> Toshiba Chromebook 2 and love it. think i might delete Chrome OS and reinstall Trusty
[03:16] <fusioned> keyboard's a lil small tho
[03:16] <wafflejock> Abe: ah thought you were saying it's no longer supported
[03:16] <daemon_pid_007> can anyone guide me to writing a food daemon
[03:16] <Guest39901> how do I get root permission from a ubuntu live CD , i've ubuntu installed on my pc.
[03:16] <Abe> wafflejock: No i was saying it's longer supported
[03:16] <wafflejock> ah gotcha
[03:16] <Abe> then 12.04
[03:16] <daemon_pid_007> guest use paswd root command
[03:17] <Guest39901> How do I loginas root from a live CD?
[03:17] <Abe> Guest39901: sudo su ?
[03:17] <daemon_pid_007> abbe, wafflejock thanks i think i'am joing to stick with 14.04
[03:17] <tonyyarusso> sudo -i, not sudo su...
[03:17] <inteus> never sudo su
[03:18] <Guest39901> ok
[03:18] <Abe> why?
[03:18] <zeon98> Anyone got time to help me out please,   i would like to limit internet traffic to my home server between midnight and 6 am.  From what i have tried i can only limit all network traffic.
[03:18] <Abe> idk I didn't use live cd for a very long time
[03:18] <daemon_pid_007> sudo su will ask for root password which is not setup, but if you set it up then sudo su is not bad at all
[03:18] <zeon98> Any help would be amazing. thank you
[03:18] <wafflejock> zeon98: what have you tried exactly?
[03:18] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: You mean you want it to be unlimited for communication with other machines in your house?
[03:19] <wafflejock> zeon98: you might be able to make use of squid3 to proxy and therefore limit access not sure though
[03:19] <wafflejock> maybe some easier way with a cron script and iptables or something though
[03:20] <zeon98> I want to allow a server at my home to use full internet bandwidth during the night, but limit that usage during the day
[03:20] <Abe> does 16.04 ships with Mir instead of X.org ??
[03:20] <tonyyarusso> Abe: 16.04 doesn't exist yet.
[03:20] <Abe> well when it comes out
[03:20] <daemon_pid_007> squid is the best, there are pluggins which will help you limit and control network traffic and also monito it, downside you will have to dedicate a computer for this purpose and have all your network traffic pass through this computer
[03:21] <tonyyarusso> Abe: Ask after feature freeze :)
[03:21] <wafflejock> zeon98: suppose you could use this and have a cron script that changes the settings http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man8/wondershaper.8.html
[03:21] <Abe> tonyyarusso: what do you mean?
[03:21] <zeon98> tried a few things like wondershaper
[03:21] <daemon_pid_007> when is 16.04 releasing though, i always keep wondering????
[03:21] <edd> wow Ubuntu 15.10 rocks
[03:21] <edd> really cool
[03:21] <edd> never used Ubuntu before
[03:21] <Abe> April 2016
[03:21] <inteus> edd: do you have a support question?
[03:21] <wafflejock> edd: heh was about to ask what you upgraded from :)
[03:21] <tonyyarusso> Abe: That would be the point when it's been decided what's in and what's out for the release.
[03:22] <daemon_pid_007> edd you will just love ubuntu just give it a try
[03:22] <tonyyarusso> daemon_pid_007: 16 = 2016, 04 = April
[03:22] <wafflejock> edd: if you don't have support issues join #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat
[03:22] <zeon98> The problem i have is i want to always use full local bandwidth,
[03:22] <edd> I had Fedora 22..which sucked
[03:22] <wafflejock> zeon98: just want to limit internet traffic?
[03:22] <zeon98> yeah
[03:22] <edd> wafflejock, I wanted to know how I could change the default theme? and if there were some cool themes you guys could recommend?
[03:22] <wafflejock> zeon98: yeah think maybe squid is the way to go then
[03:22] <zeon98> everything i try limits all traffic
[03:23] <daemon_pid_007> tonyyarusso, wow i never new the secret code
[03:23] <wafflejock> zeon98: squid proxy can just be for internet traffic
[03:23] <daemon_pid_007> amazing
[03:23] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: So what have you been doing so far?  This could be done with pretty basic iptables rules, where you just have different rules for your subnet and everything else.
[03:23] <daemon_pid_007> any guys using netgear nighthawk r7000
[03:23] <zeon98> squid is quite complex, i cant believe theres not an easier solution
[03:24] <tonyyarusso> There is.  iptables rate limiting.
[03:24] <wafflejock> oh huh
[03:24] <daemon_pid_007> zeon98: squid is by far the easiest solutions on the market
[03:24] <xieyi> I am using kubuntu 15.10
[03:25] <wafflejock> edd: personally use the gnumix icons but running Ubuntu Gnome since I'm a fan of gnome, dunno about Unity themes really though
[03:25] <xieyi> the sddm always crash on boot
[03:25] <zeon98> Everytime i use squid i fail
[03:25] <xieyi> now I have to change to lightdm
[03:25] <daemon_pid_007> xubuntu is the best for running in virtual machines
[03:25] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: Am I invisible?
[03:25] <edd> wafflejock, is it Gnome 3?
[03:25] <wafflejock> edd: yeah
[03:25] <zeon98> tonyyarusso: you say i should be able to do it using iptables?
[03:25] <xieyi> but lightdm stucks too
[03:25] <edd> wafflejock, I like Gnome 3 too.. how do I then switch to that window manager?
[03:26] <xieyi> I found the new version is very unstable
[03:26] <wafflejock> edd: a few versions back from the latest so doesn't have all the animations in the menu and notifications still in the silly bottom tray but pretty good
[03:26] <wafflejock> edd: you can install the gnome-desktop package the logout and can login to gnome session from the drop down list but personally tried it out for a few days then re-installed with Ubuntu Gnome distro disk
[03:26] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: Yup.  There's a time module for that restriction, and a module for rate-limiting, so you just combine those two, and have a rule that matches and allows your LAN traffic with higher precedence than the one for the rest.
[03:26] <edd> I keep hitting the top left corner to bring up the search here :)
[03:26] <wafflejock> edd: https://ubuntugnome.org/
[03:27] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/iptables-for-restricting-access-by-time-of-day.html has some stuff on the time bit
[03:27] <Abe> xieyi: I installed kubuntu on top of my ubuntu system with apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, and just left it like that... I think kubuntu runs a lot more stable that way
[03:28] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/163657/set-packet-rate-limit-via-iptables has some stuff about the limit module
[03:28] <edd> wafflejock, is Ubuntu Gnome a different ubuntu flavor?
[03:29] <edd> it looks like I will have to create a new usb loader for it?
[03:29] <zeon98> i can limit all traffic tonyyarusso but cant internet and local, when googling what should i type to get on the right tracks if that makes sense?
[03:30] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: Just make your first rule match the local subnet an accept, and the second rule be the rate-limiting one.
[03:30] <xieyi> Abe: that requires a lot of space. I am using an old laptop.
[03:30] <daemon_pid_007> Anyone prefer pure Debian over ubuntu
[03:30] <xieyi> I will try that anyway thx
[03:30] <xieyi> looking forward to a better solution to the problem of sddm
[03:31] <Abe> xieyi: well yes but I have more than 2 terrabyte of space so... I'm using a newer laptop 3rd gen
[03:31] <daemon_pid_007> How to install ubuntu on Macbook pro early 2015 13 inch
[03:31] <Abe> xieyi: how much HD space do you have? it's just a few hundred MB i think
[03:31] <daemon_pid_007> ???
[03:32] <daemon_pid_007> Does ubuntu run well on a macbook
[03:32] <daemon_pid_007> I need help installing ubuntu on a macbook pro 2015
[03:33] <xieyi> Abe: my hd space can afford an extra desktop manager. just want a better solution.
[03:33] <edd> wafflejock, can I create a bootable usb for Ubuntu gnome using live-usb-creator?
[03:33] <VergilPrime> sorry :S
[03:34] <icansmellyou> daemon_pid_007, see if this helps. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro
[03:34] <zeon98> tonyyarusso: how do i understand internet traffic against local traffic?
[03:34] <tonyyarusso> zeon98: By IP address.
[03:34] <tonyyarusso> Or interface, if you have it set up that way.
[03:35] <zeon98> that i get tonyyarusso
[03:35] <daemon_pid_007> icansmellyou: have you tried installing it
[03:35] <Abe> xieyi: I think there are just those two ways. you said you use 15.10? maybe downgrade to 14.04 maybe a little more stable for you.
[03:35] <iceyballz> daemon_pid_007: Use virtualbox if you want it up at the same time as OSX, use Bootcamp otherwise.
[03:35] <wafflejock> edd: yup should work I usually USB install
[03:35] <wafflejock> edd: not sure if I just used DD or if I used one of the disk creators last time though
[03:35] <icansmellyou> daemon_pid_007, no i have not but i looks like others have had success in the past. i belive that link will answer any of you questions.
[03:35] <edd> ok maybe I will do it some other time
[03:36] <edd> for now this is ok :)
[03:36] <Abe> xieyi: when you have an old laptop maybe kubuntu is not the right solution for you at all? maybe you should use something more lightweight?
[03:36] <zeon98> there must be a way of saying limit external traffic too x kbs and allow internal traffic to run at max
[03:36] <wafflejock> edd: yeah you can just do, sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop, if you just want to use it for now
[03:37] <edd> I didn't quite get the difference though
[03:37] <wafflejock> edd: just need to logout afterwards and choose Gnome from the menu next to your login box, just if you want to get rid of all the unity stuff easier to reinstall
[03:37] <TJ-> zeon98: yes; apply the limiting rule to traffic ingress/egress on the WAN interface
[03:37] <Abe> I don't like the new gnome 3 :( to much switching
[03:37] <wafflejock> edd: if you do the Ubuntu Gnome distro install it just doesn't have the Unity stuff in there
[03:37] <zeon98> xieyi: puppy linux is amazing with old kit
[03:37] <daemon_pid_007> iceballz: I have viryual installation using virtualbox but the performance is really bad, i cnnot use the web browse in vm so want to go with native intallation, i wanted to know if it supports the touch pad and all the other drivers like the wifi drivers work
[03:37] <wafflejock> Abe: eh I hadn't been using Gnome 2 in a while so was just a new thing to me
[03:37] <edd> oh you mean with this choice I will have to keep choosing between gnome and unity when I login?
[03:38] <wafflejock> edd: yup if you just install the package can switch between em
[03:38] <wafflejock> edd: more disk space though and I have SSD so try to keep it minimal
[03:38] <edd> that sounds cool
[03:38] <zeon98> how do you define wan over lan TJ-
[03:38] <edd> ok
[03:38] <TJ-> zeon98: on a gateway? by the interface connected to the WAN
[03:38] <xieyi> Abe: Yeah the issue becomes more serious after kubuntu requires more memory after recent upgrades
[03:39] <Abe> wafflejock: I like gnome 2 a lot more. My KDE desktop is build like Gnome 2
[03:39] <xieyi> zeon98: thx I am trying it
[03:39] <zeon98> no by the linux server running local
[03:39] <Abe> xieyi: I experienced the opposite since the last kernel upgrade
[03:40] <edd> wafflejock, E: Unable to locate package gnome-desktop
[03:40] <TJ-> zeon98: if you're trying to apply the rules on the server itself, then you put a rule that matches the LAN subnet in the OUTPUT table as the first rule, and then the next rule applies the restriction based on 0.0.0.0/0
[03:40] <edd> wafflejock, you sure that is the right command? or am I missing some repositories?
[03:40] <TJ-> zeon98: the rule matching the LAN sub-net does a -j ACCEPT
[03:41] <tarak_> I am new to IRC. Will anyone help me ?
[03:41] <iceyballz> tarak_: What's up?
[03:42] <zeon98> And that will allow me to limit wan traffic and let lan traffic fully open
[03:42] <tarak_> hello iceyballz
[03:42] <tarak_> how are you ?
[03:46] <zeon98> ?
[03:46] <iceyballz> zeon98: He PM'd me haha
[03:47] <zeon98> just a messer i guess iceyballz?
[03:47] <SemiNus> hi :)
[03:47] <zeon98> hi SemiNus
[03:47] <SemiNus> I have a question, split up in a) and b)
[03:48] <SemiNus> a) is there any mirror still offering deb's for utopic so that I do not have to upgrade even though it's risky?
[03:48] <zeon98> Good way to spilt things
[03:48] <iceyballz> zeon98: I thought so at first, just plainly a first-time IRC user
[03:48] <tonyyarusso> SemiNus: old-releases.ubuntu.com
[03:49] <SemiNus> tonyyarusso, love you for that advice, thank you!
[03:49] <tonyyarusso> SemiNus: You DO have to upgrade, but that will help make the upgrade less fussy.  It is not receiving patches.
[03:49] <zeon98> where did he go iceyballz?
[03:49] <SemiNus> tonyyarusso, so once I have a working  sources.list,  I could then run a  dist-upgrade, right?
[03:49] <tonyyarusso> SemiNus: yup
[03:49] <SemiNus> because at the moment, dist-upgrade won't work
[03:49] <SemiNus> great
[03:49] <SemiNus> thank you so much!
[03:50] <Abe> SemiNus: dist-upgrade doesn't work ?
[03:50] <Bluefoot> I installed Ubuntu and it deleted my windows 7
[03:50] <SemiNus> Abe, not at the moment
[03:50] <tonyyarusso> !eol | SemiNus, see alos
[03:50] <tonyyarusso> *also
[03:50] <iceyballz> zeon98: Still chatting me, asking how to find interested channels, etc. Total new guy haha
[03:50] <luketheduke0> Bluefoot, that's great news!
[03:51] <Abe> SemiNus: whats your version what does your Pc spit out if you do dist-upgrade
[03:51] <Bluefoot> Haha sure is.
[03:51] <zeon98> Nah its a hard swap Bluefoot
[03:51] <SemiNus> Abe, dist-upgrade only offers to upgrade a few packages (10ish)
[03:51] <Bluefoot> Ubuntu is also not installed
[03:51] <zeon98> Are you sure you wiped windows Bluefoot,
[03:52] <SemiNus> tonyyarusso, I can only find CD images there
[03:52] <iceyballz> Hey all, what is the best way for a web guy (ruby and rails) to develop a desktop app using html5 etc and wrappin it?
[03:52] <Bluefoot> Yes, a boot menu shows, but if you boot Ubuntu "File not found" Windows: BOOTMGR is missing
[03:52] <Abe> SemiNus: get the ubuntu source.list do an apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[03:52] <TJ-> SemiNus: you edit /etc/apt/sources.list and use old-releases.ubuntu.com in place of the current archive.ubuntu.com or whatever is there
[03:53] <SemiNus> oh I see
[03:53] <SemiNus> thx!
[03:53] <zeon98> If i recall correctly if you havent deleted the OS, the should be able to use bootmgr to repair and dual boot both
[03:53] <tonyyarusso> SemiNus: where?
[03:53] <Bluefoot> i kinda formated windows 7 partion becuase i selected the wrong partion
[03:54] <Bluefoot> and it ended up not being able to install ubuntu
[03:54] <tarak_> hey friends, why ubuntu don't find my bluetooth adapter ?
[03:54] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: That would explain your bootmgr issue. That means if you want to still use windows you will need to do a complete installation using a Windows install disk with a valid key.
[03:55] <SemiNus> tonyyarusso, got it working :)
[03:55] <SemiNus> thx again
[03:55] <TJ-> tarak_: that depends on the Bluetooth device
[03:55] <zeon98> Bluefoot: look at this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[03:55] <Bluefoot> I can't get a disc.
[03:55] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: Which version of Windows was it?
[03:55] <Bluefoot> 7
[03:56] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: http://www.pcworld.com/article/248995/how-to-install-windows-7-without-the-disc.html
[03:56] <tarak_> TJ,it worked in windows very well
[03:56] <tarak_> TJ, ubuntu is perfect about all drivers except this one
[03:56] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: Follow that guide, but you will need to find the ISO on your own :(
[03:56] <zeon98> what!
[03:57] <iceyballz> :P
[03:57] <zeon98> doesnt sound like he has killed windows
[03:57] <Bluefoot> Haha! Ubuntu works!
[03:57] <zeon98> just hidden the boot record
[03:57] <Bluefoot> i have it on my usb and it booted in finally
[03:57] <iceyballz> zeon98: Said he wipped the actual Windows partition
[03:57] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: Nice
[03:57] <zeon98> Ah i missed that bit
[03:58] <zeon98> forget that link Bluefoot,
[03:59] <Bluefoot> Oh okay
[03:59] <Abe> I quitted using windows since Xp. Didn't like the way Windows was going. switched to Linux and never regred it. Probably will never use Windows in my lifetime again
[04:00] <iceyballz> Abe: Windows 10 is actually decent in some respects, I just use it to play ARK though. The linux client is not great.
[04:00] <iceyballz> On the road: OSX, at home: linux
[04:01] <Abe> iceyballz: why games? PlayonLinux works perfect besides the new DirectX 10 11 or what. but wine will catch up ;)
[04:01] <iceyballz> Abe: Yeah I saw that before. Well get this, ARK has a native linux client. Just does not utilize my GPU as good, very resource intensive game.
[04:02] <iceyballz> Sorry all, off-topic
[04:03] <Bluefoot> running boot repair
[04:03] <Abe> iceyballz: ARK is available on Linux o_O
[04:03] <Abe> ?
[04:04] <iceyballz> Abe: Yup! Go check Steam haha.
[04:05] <Abe> haha cool I was reading Direct X 11 and just told myself forget it
[04:06] <Bluefoot> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13058030/
[04:07] <Bluefoot> IT WORKED!
[04:07] <Bluefoot> it just deleted the boot manager....
[04:07] <iceyballz> Bluefoot: Yay!
[04:08] <Abe> Boot successfully repaired. You can now reboot your computer. :D
[04:08] <Abe> I have to look for ARK
[04:08] <Bluefoot> I'm worried if i should try to reinstall the OS that messed it up
[04:14] <GoldenOrb> Join the cult of the golden orb
[04:14] <GoldenOrb> Put on your sandpaper pants
[04:14] <Abe> thats why I use Kde. Try to let Windows look like that http://oi68.tinypic.com/263ihox.jpg
[04:15] <GoldenOrb> Someone get the luke warm pudding
[04:16] <iceyballz> Like podcasts? Just found a nice looking podcast manager/player called Vocal. Designed for elementaryOS but looks nice and works on ubuntu
[04:17] <GoldenOrb> I have lost members to scientology
[04:17] <iceyballz> !ubottu
[04:17] <Bluefoot> Anyone have a Jailbroken phone?
[04:17] <Abe> hello ubottu
[04:17] <Abe> xD
[04:18] <Abe> going to offtopic
[04:18] <iceyballz> Abe: Later
[04:19] <Abe> Damn I love Twinkies :D
[04:20] <Abe> Later I have to look if there is even anybody
[04:21] <gp5st> I have a usb disk that shows up in dmesg but it doesn't show up in blkid nor does it show up as a disk in thunar
[04:32] <wileee> gp5st, How about lsusb, are you attached tom what's on it, a little context helps.
[04:32] <wileee> to*
[04:34] <wafflejock> gp5st: may want to try lsblk too think that shows any block devices even if they aren't formatted or just check it out in gparted
[04:46] <Abe> I wish I would live in a state where pot is legal :/
[04:49] <gp5st> Willis: didn't show up there either. dmesg shows that it found it then says it disconnects. wafflejock ok
[04:49] <wafflejock> gp5st: if it doesn't show as a device in lsusb probably not going to show in lsblk either
[04:50] <wafflejock> gp5st: lsusb will show any devices connected via USB
[04:50] <gp5st> wafflejock: yeah, that would make sense
[04:50] <wafflejock> just didn't think of it at first
[04:50] <gp5st> always something with usb for me. maybe i'm too rough with cables or something but i always seem to have issues :-\
[04:51] <wileee> gp5st, are you unmounting them?
[04:52] <gp5st> wileee: yes
[04:52] <wileee> gp5st, Figured you were.
[04:52] <gp5st> when i get the chance anyway, every now and then I just loose them
[04:53] <gp5st> anyway, thank you
[04:56] <wafflejock> edd: sorry just saw your old message http://itsfoss.com/how-to-install-gnome-in-ubuntu-14-04/ should have been ubuntu-gnome-desktop package

[05:21] <edd> I am trying to connect my Ubuntu 15.10 installation to a HP printer on the network
[05:21] <edd> is this the right set of drivers --> http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2015/04/hplip-support-ubuntu-1504-linuxmint-17-1/ ?
[05:21] <edd> it says it works for 15.04
[05:22] <edd> maybe someone here can help?
[05:22] <Abe> edd: did you do what the webpage is telling you?
[05:23] <edd> I am downloading the drivers now
[05:23] <edd> but I am not sure if they are the right ones
[05:23] <wafflejock> edd: yeah not sure I'm using the hplip drivers myself but on 14.04 http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=hplip&searchon=names&suite=vivid&section=all
[05:23] <wafflejock> edd: should be able to just, sudo apt-get install hplip
[05:25] <Abe> edd: and did that work?
[05:29] <deper29> so, I'm a bad person and I waited too long to upgrade my system. I'm running utopic 14.10, but it is giving me errors when I try to upgrade
[05:30] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | deper29
[05:30] <deper29> I get a bunch of 404 errors when I do dist-upgrade
[05:30] <cfhowlett> deper29, OR you can torrent the .iso, make a bootable USB and clean install
[05:31] <inteus> clean install is always a good thing
[05:32] <deper29> yeah, I hate doing a clean install :( then I have to reconfigure my whole system again.
[05:32] <inteus> yeah
[05:32] <cfhowlett> deper29, perhaps LTS only would suit you best ...
[05:32] <deper29> I feel that's something that should be worked out some day
[05:32] <kostkon> !lts
[05:32] <deper29> cfhowlett: yeah, perhaps I'll start using LTS from now on
[05:33] <cfhowlett> deper29, 14.04 is current version.  16.04 will drop in 6 months.
[05:33] <deper29> okay, thanks a bunch for the help
[05:33] <deper29> is it recommended I backup my /home and just rsync it onto my new install?
[05:33] <deper29> err, not recommended
[05:34] <cfhowlett> deper29, well, that's one method.  but if you have a separate home, no need.
[05:34] <cfhowlett> !home | deper29
[05:35] <deper29> yeah, it's not on a separate partition at the moment. I'll make another partition and throw it there and deal with that then
[05:35] <deper29> thanks for the help cfhowlett and inteus
[05:35] <cfhowlett> deper29, happy2help!
[05:38] <Abe> I want this! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdHOJiTkcg0 but idk how. :(
[05:39] <lotuspsychje> Abe: no offtopic here please
[05:39] <Abe> lotuspsychje: is that offtopic?
[05:39] <Abe> k let me move
[05:39] <Tundra> Evening folks, I have an executable for a game that simply won't run. Any thoughts?
[05:40] <inteus> !details | Tundra
[05:40] <Abe> which .exe file are we talking about
[05:40] <iceyballz> Tundra: checked permissions for executable?
[05:40] <Tundra> Not an exe Abe
[05:40] <Abe> Tundra: .sh ?
[05:40] <Tundra> iceyballz, I just hit it with chmod +x
[05:41] <iceyballz> Tundra: Just for checking, right click and goto permissions, is your group set for executable?
[05:41] <Tundra> Abe, dunno, just labeled executable
[05:41] <Abe> what does it say if you do ./yourexecutable ?
[05:42] <Tundra> iceyballz, yeah, pretty sure
[05:42] <iceyballz> Tundra: Are you starting it with ./xxxx in term or just a double-click? No errors in term?
[05:43] <Tundra> iceyballz, just double click
[05:43] <Tundra> Abe, that returns: error while loading shared libraries: libglut.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[05:43] <OerHeks> we can start guessing, what is the name of that game, Tundra ?
[05:43] <iceyballz> Tundra: try in term with ./filename
[05:43] <Tundra> OerHeks, uplink
[05:44] <iceyballz> make sure to cd first to its location
[05:44] <Tundra> iceyballz, rever to what I just told Abe
[05:44] <Tundra> *refer
[05:44] <iceyballz> Ah, missing libraries on your system
[05:44] <Abe> I think you need some things
[05:44] <Tundra> lovely
[05:45] <cfhowlett> Tundra, so where did you install this game from??
[05:45] <iceyballz> Tundra: apt-get install freeglut3
[05:45] <OerHeks> sudo apt-get install freeglut3 # and try again
[05:45] <iceyballz> See if that fixes things for you
[05:45] <cfhowlett> OerHeks, eh?    # ?
[05:46] <Abe> Tundra: use the Synaptic Package Manager to install the package freeglut3
[05:46] <Abe> or yes that what iceyballz said
[05:47] <Tundra> ./uplink: symbol lookup error: ./uplink: undefined symbol: __glutRoot
[05:47] <iceyballz> Tundra: Is that after installing freeglut3?
[05:47] <Tundra> yep
[05:47] <Tundra> I ran sudo apt-get install freeglut3
[05:48] <iceyballz> Tundra: ut libglut.so.3.7 and this script in your uplink directory:
[05:48] <Tundra> iceyballz, pardon?
[05:48] <Abe> Tundra: I found that http://forums.introversion.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=33256
[05:49] <iceyballz> Same thing follow that last step I sent and it seems per other users to fix the issue
[05:50] <Tundra> iceyballz, sure, but I didn't really get what you were saying
[05:50] <Tundra> Nor do I know how to make that script
[05:50] <Tundra> well, the one Abe gave me
[05:50] <iceyballz> Tundra: First: move libglut.so.3.7 into /uplink
[05:51] <Abe> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=154937&page=3&p=3396009#post3396009 trying to get uplink running?
[05:51] <iceyballz> Tundra: Second: make a new script in your text editor and paste "#!/bin/sh
[05:51] <OerHeks> nice, we give support for a paid game https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/uplink/
[05:52] <iceyballz> Tundra: Third: Use this new script instead of normal launcher
[05:52] <Tundra> iceyballz, ok, where do I find libglut?
[05:52] <iceyballz> Tundra: http://dri.sourceforge.net/res/libglut.so.3.7.0
[05:53] <Tundra> iceyballz, ok, so now I make a new text file with a text editor like mousepad?
[05:54] <iceyballz> Yup
[05:54] <iceyballz> Either use no extension or .sh
[05:55] <Abe> Tundra: look in synaptic package manager for missing libraries. they mostly have everything you need
[05:55] <Tundra> iceyballz, any specific name?
[05:56] <iceyballz> Abe: he needs it specifically in his folder, not through the manager
[05:56] <iceyballz> Tundra: Nope, perhaps "useme" or "launcher"
[05:57] <iceyballz> Tundra: Then just in terminal run "./launcher" or whatever you named it.
[05:57] <CanberraGuy^> hello, can someone help me with iptable, if I got iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/32 -d 192.168.1.0/32 -j ACCEPT , is it mean im accepting 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.255 ?
[05:57] <Abe> iceyballz: well i ment in general to make synaptic your friend
[05:58] <iceyballz> Abe: Yeah he already installed via synaptic. This specific fix unfort makes him manually put it in his folder
[05:59] <Tundra> iceyballz, ./test.sh: 5: exec: ./uplink-bin: not found
[06:00] <Tundra> :(
[06:00] <inteus> "sudo updatedb" then "locate libglut.so.3.7"
[06:01] <Tundra> inteus, and the point of that was?
[06:01] <iceyballz> inteus: Looks like libglut is not his prob
[06:01] <inteus> oh
[06:01] <inteus> duh
[06:01] <iceyballz> Tundra: ./uplink-bin is not found, anything named similar?
[06:01] <inteus> sorry, was half paying attention
[06:01]  * inteus goes back to his corner
[06:01] <iceyballz> :P
[06:03] <Tundra> iceyballz, only similar is just labled uplink
[06:03] <iceyballz> Tundra: file extension for that?
[06:03] <iceyballz> Tundra: or none
[06:04] <Abe> It would be a great Idea to use teamviewer for support ? or not ?
[06:05] <Tundra> iceyballz, nada
[06:05] <Tundra> Abe, to what extent?
[06:05] <iceyballz> Tundra: edit the custom script we made, change "./uplink-bin" to "./uplink"
[06:06] <iceyballz> That should do it
[06:06] <MJ94> Any idea why when I run make > make.log only the first line of the output is logged?
[06:06] <Tundra> iceyballz, ./uplink: symbol lookup error: ./uplink: undefined symbol: __glutRoot
[06:06] <Tundra> This doesn't make any sense
[06:06] <iceyballz> Wait did you run ./uplink in terminal or ./our_script?
[06:07] <Tundra> our script
[06:07] <iceyballz> And you edited like stated and saved?
[06:07] <Tundra> yep
[06:07] <iceyballz> Wow, that is odd
[06:07] <Tundra> Unfortunately that seems to be a recurring theme
[06:08] <iceyballz> Only thing I can think of is the program you are tyring to use is using a different version of the lib, in which case you would need to ask them which version and track it down.
[06:08] <Tundra> christ almighty
[06:08] <iamrohit7> i have my partition layout as http://imgur.com/KFgMXJH i want to decrease /dev/sda1 to 180GB but i cannot seem to resize. how do i go about doing it?
[06:09] <iceyballz> Tundra: sorry bud, tried haha!
[06:09] <Blue1> iamrohit7: have you tried gparted?
[06:10] <cfhowlett> iamrohit7, 298gb if your /boot!!??
[06:10] <iamrohit7> Blue1: that's the image i posted.
[06:10] <iamrohit7> cfhowlett: ??
[06:10] <cfhowlett> get ubuntu USB, boot, start gparted, select partition, shrink partition
[06:10] <OerHeks> iamrohit7, unmount that sda drive, then you can change things.
[06:11] <Blue1> iamrohit7: yup.  it is.  sorry
[06:11] <tase> I've mounted a windows share on ubuntu as cifs, but when I create files in it from ubuntu, they have some wierd permissions in windows, how do I fix the mount to create as 777
[06:11] <Blue1> iamrohit7: you should be able to use a bootable dvd, and re-size it -
[06:11] <CanberraGuy^> hello, can someone help me with iptable, if I got iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/32 -d 192.168.1.0/32 -j ACCEPT , is it mean im accepting 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.255 ?
[06:12] <iceyballz> tase: manually set permissions in teminal at top-level folder of the share, set recursive
[06:12] <iamrohit7> thanks guys.
[06:12]  * Tundra sighs
[06:12] <iceyballz> tase: chmod -R 777 /dir
[06:12] <byabbablabb_> careful with that /dir
[06:13] <Blue1> indeed
[06:13] <iceyballz> byabbablabb_: Yeah, tase: only in the dir you want to actually do it it
[06:13] <iceyballz> make a specific one
[06:13] <Abe> Tundra: If you have problems getting it running what is if.. just if you get it for windows and just play it with wine. It got a Platinum rating on WineHq. would be a good workaround tho just sayin
[06:14] <adam__> blackcobra
[06:14] <Guest26836> nice my favorite ubuntu
[06:14] <Tundra> Abe, yeah, that's a possibility. I've just been banging my head against wine all day for other things.
[06:14] <iceyballz> Tundra: or checkout https://www.playonlinux.com/en/ to run windows apps as well
[06:15] <wafflejock> any advice on where to manually install programs I see conflicting info on the net, I just have phpstorm I manually installed but for now had it extracted in the Downloads folder but want to put it somewhere more appropriate, should I use /usr/local/ or /opt/ ? I see some things in both places right now, is there any reason to use one or the other?
[06:16] <tase> I've made the file 777 but it still says I dont have permission to open that file on windows
[06:16] <Tundra> iceyballz, Used it. Just a little tired of pplaying with wine today, that's all. otherwise I'd go for it
[06:16] <iceyballz> trying to setup a local web stack
[06:17] <omgitsmit> wafflejock: my programs are all in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
[06:17] <iceyballz> wafflejock: sorry that was for you, web dev stack?
[06:17] <wafflejock> omgitsmit: from what I read that's just for distro installed programs though
[06:17] <Guest26836> i will try playonlinux verey licke
[06:17] <omgitsmit> wafflejock: when i compile, make and make install - it places the biaries there
[06:18] <omgitsmit> wafflejock: ive seen some tutorials use /opt/ as well
[06:18] <wafflejock> omgitsmit: yeah have seen that for the most part too unless I specify something during ./configure
[06:18] <wafflejock> think I"m going with opt
[06:18] <wafflejock> looks like more stuff is there, sublime_text and a few other things
[06:18] <omgitsmit> wafflejock: lazy admin keeps my stuff in my home folder lol
[06:19] <wafflejock> omgitsmit: heh yeah that's what I'm trying to get away from :)
[06:19] <omgitsmit> you are brave
[06:19] <omgitsmit> god speed
[06:19] <Abe> Tundra: Use PlayonLinux it is very useful. just get the right wine version for each game and look on winehq how other people got it running !
[06:20] <omgitsmit> POL has been hit or miss with me, more miss than hit when i tried it years ago
[06:20] <wafflejock> iceyballz: oh no I already have the web stuff installed, just an IDE that comes as a zipped file you just extract
[06:20] <Tundra> Abe, like I said, tired of screwing with wine. That includes POL and POM. Bout to go to bed anyways
[06:21] <Tundra> Night all, thanks for the help
[06:21] <Tundra> !
[06:21] <iceyballz> Nice, have a good night all, Im out till sometime tomorrow.
[06:21] <jeffrey_f> list
[06:21] <Abe> I got almost every game running I have with PlayonLinux. never had Problems with it. even newer games are running flawlessly
[06:22] <Abe> ok Tundra gn8 still maybe you're doing something wrong with POL ?
[06:23] <Abe> cuz 90% of my windows games are running actually
[06:24] <Guest26836> cobra
[06:24] <Abe> even multiplayer games
[06:25] <Guest26836> .

[06:30] <Abe> works perfect. evrything that does not require DX 11 works fine
[06:30] <Abe> or DX 10
[06:31] <ElGatoSaez> any help?
[06:31] <ElGatoSaez> ./fastboot devices
[06:31] <ElGatoSaez> -bash: ./fastboot: No such file or directory
[06:32] <Abe> Installing under POL is so easy I don't understand how people can have problems with it :/
[06:32] <Abe> it's so easy
[06:33] <byabbablabb_> oonly a couple of games are holding me off obliterating my Windows 10 ssd completely
[06:33] <byabbablabb_> i need my fix every now and then *_*
[06:35] <Abe> byabbablabb_: Ok everything besides the Newest games that require DX 10 or 11... but I've heard that Wine is going to deliver DX 10 end of this year!
[06:36] <Abe> don't know if it's true thos
[06:36] <Abe> though

[06:37] <byabbablabb_> fallout 3 supposedly runs better than on windows - i imagine that modding that would be a right pain tho
[06:37] <ElGatoSaez> nnnnnn
[06:37] <cfhowlett> !patience | ElGatoSaez,
[06:37] <sparrow_nc> hi
[06:37] <Abe> I have fallout 3 and new vegas... never modded it though
[06:37] <wuttttttttttt> ubuntu 12.04 user here, recently made a second profile on the computer, but whenever i try to switch from second(standard) profile back to my main(admin) profile, after typing password to log in, i see the screen flash but it's stuck in the login screen. However, i can move the cursor around and it changes appropriately to where my windows were(cursor changes into text input cursor, window size adjuster cursor, etc) but screen
[06:37] <ElGatoSaez> sorry
[06:37] <wuttttttttttt> ....anyone know what's causing it?
[06:38] <ElGatoSaez> doesn't matter I'm solving it
[06:38] <ElGatoSaez> http://askubuntu.com/questions/133389/no-such-file-or-directory-but-the-file-exists
[06:39] <bait> o.O nobody knows
[06:39] <ElGatoSaez> I love ubuntu, I don't use it because my mom needs office for her university
[06:39] <bait> o.O
[06:39] <Abe> wileee: thx that was also not necessary
[06:39] <bait> doesn't libreoffice support docx now?
[06:39] <sparrow_nc> yes it does
[06:39] <bait> although the review feature of ms office isn't present
[06:39] <ElGatoSaez> Solved! :D
[06:40] <bait> she probably needs the review feature, so no
[06:40] <byabbablabb_> ElGatoSaez: execute permission?
[06:40] <ElGatoSaez> Abe, my mom needs other softwares also like project professional and access
[06:40] <ElGatoSaez> byabbablabb_, I don't know, I'm just following a tutorial for updating phones
[06:40] <bait> o.O

[08:00] <ulot0> join #ubuntu-cn
[08:02] <jscix> .
[08:02] <prg> .
[08:02] <jscix> man, this IRC client is terrible.
[08:03] <jscix> anyone know a good irc client for linux?
[08:03] <Seveas> jscix: then try a better one :)
[08:03] <baizon> jscix: hexchat
[08:03] <jscix> ty, lemme try.
[08:03] <Seveas> hexchat is the usual gui one, irssi is nice for console junkies
[08:03] <jscix> I like both
[08:04] <baizon> or weechat
[08:04] <bait> i'm on xchat-gnome
[08:04] <bait> mmm
[08:04] <bait> can't say it's great though
[08:04] <bait> it's ok
[08:05] <jscix> x-chat gnome is the one im on currently, I dont like it.
[08:05] <bait> why?
[08:05] <baizon> jscix: hexchat is the fork of xchat ;)
[08:06] <baizon> jscix: else you can try kvirc
[08:06] <jscix> the interface is really messy
[08:06] <bait> it is?
[08:06] <bait> only part i dont like about it is you need to use ctrl + u to see userlist
[08:06] <Finetundar> jscix: maybe quassel?
[08:06] <bait> other than that, it's fine as far as irc clients go
[08:06] <adn34> Hello... I want to use fcitx to write in Bangla / Bengali language..

[08:13] <jscix> their website won't load for some reason.
[08:14] <kavin> Software Updater is not showing the availability of new Ubuntu Version.
[08:15] <kavin> i have enabled notfy me of a new ubuntu version.
[08:15] <cfhowlett> kavin, cat /etc/issue | nc termbin.com 9999
[08:15] <cfhowlett> paste the url here
[08:16] <kavin> http://termbin.com/ts75
[08:16] <cfhowlett> kavin, sudo do-release-upgrade           should get 15.10
[08:20] <kavin> Software Updater says that I need to download 270 MB. I dont want to install updates since I would be installing new version of ubuntu.
[08:20] <kavin> Ubuntu 15.04 \n \l
[08:21] <kavin> thanks cfhowlett.. Your help is much appreciated
[08:21] <kavin> The command works fine
[08:22] <bekks> kavin: Which command do you use for updating?
[08:23] <kavin> Hi bekks, I used sudo do-release-upgrade
[08:23] <linocisco> hi all
[08:24] <bekks> kavin: So do you want to update to 15.10 or do you just want to update to the latest package versions on 15.04?
[08:24] <linocisco> i want to list all files/folders by type upon dialogbox after clicking browse button, it has only "Name", "size", "modified" headings, nothing can be added
[08:25] <kavin> No, I want to update to 15.10 since I wanted to make use of latest Mate Desktop.
[08:25] <bekks> kavin: Then just do it? :)
[08:26] <bekks> linocisco: This dialogbox is shown where?
[08:26] <kavin> @linocisco Which Desktop Environment do u use?
[08:27] <linocisco> bekks, any recruitment website or any website which offer you to upload something from your computer, you need to click, add or upload or browse button and then you will see dialog box to choose file
[08:27] <linocisco> kavin, 14.04.3 LTS. x64
[08:27] <bekks> linocisco: which browser?
[08:27] <linocisco> bekks, firefox
[08:28] <bekks> linocisco: Then you have to talk to the mozilla devs for implementing it :)
[08:28] <linocisco> bekks, it is default on ubuntu
[08:29] <bekks> linocisco: Doesnt matter. You want something which is not implemented in firefox.
[08:29] <linocisco> bekks, ok. i will check other browsers
[08:29] <bekks> linocisco: So if you want it to be implemented, open up a feature request on the firefox official website.
[08:30] <linocisco> bekks, but it is same thing when we upload image on Libre office to upload or insert image dialogbox
[08:30] <linocisco> bekks, meaning not only on firefox
[08:31] <bekks> linocisco: there is a standard interface for applications to use a default dialog box. thats what they do. if you want them to use other dialog boxes, with more features, etc., the devs of every single app have to implement it.
[08:32] <linocisco> bekks, I dont them to implement another dialog box, just to give users a few options like Ms Windows to add more columns in heading
[08:33] <linocisco> bekks, I dont want them to implement another dialog box, just to give users a few options like Ms Windows to add more columns in heading
[08:33] <bekks> linocisco: thats something they have to implement. Devs of every single app, for every single app.
[08:33] <bekks> linocisco: Technically, a dialog box with more options is a different dialog box.
[08:34] <linocisco> bekks, that is actually useful feature and ubuntu is 15.10 now. when will this feature be added on ubuntu?
[08:35] <bekks> linocisco: Whenever you add a feature request on the upstrea, website of every application you want to behave like that.
[08:35] <linocisco> bekks, URL pls
[08:40] <dylan_> hello all
[08:41] <bait> don't be lazy. if you're gonna say hello, use their names

[09:02] <linocisco> bekks, URL to submit request
[09:04] <bekks> linocisco: that url is different for every single application.
[09:07] <freezevee> can you please suggest a nice irc app for ubuntu ?
[09:07] <freezevee> xchat looks like crap
[09:08] <Klojum> it works fine though
[09:09] <freezevee> yes but the gui looks like winodws 3.11
[09:09] <bekks> freezevee: Just use hexchat or kvirc then.
[09:09] <freezevee> bekks: thanks
[09:13] <bait> hexchat
[09:13] <Veka> \quit
[09:13] <soman> Do I need setuid(0) in my code if the file owner is 'root' and UID bit is set?
[09:14] <soman> As I understand my app will be always run as root.
[09:14] <bait> why don't you test?
[09:15] <soman> bait: Haven't chance now and trying to understand the purpose of UID and GID bits.
[09:15] <sallu> Osirez, Hi
[09:17] <sallu> Any One using ubuntu in uefi mode enabled
[09:17] <bait> are you talking about crond?
[09:19] <bait> what is uefi mode? my comp has uefi and on ubuntu
[09:19] <Ubik_> hello I am considering installing virtualbox  should i take v4 or v5?
[09:19] <bait> take latest version, virtual box tends to allow a lot of features with version changes
[09:20] <bait> including networking/interface improvements
[09:20] <Ubik_> bait: ok anything special to consider ie disk space allowed?
[09:21] <bait> nope
[09:21] <bait> stability sure
[09:21] <bait> but usually not an issue
[09:21] <Ubik_> bait: is 20 gb suffucient space to allow?
[09:21] <bait> yes
[09:22] <Ubik_> ok ty
[09:22] <bait> depends on what you're installing
[09:22] <Ubik_> lubuntu and maybe xfce mint
[09:22] <bait> anything about 5gb and ur safe
[09:22] <Ubik_> cool
[09:24] <shark> Hello! Problem printing, Status goes from "processing" to "stopped", Ubuntu 15.10, printer HP LaserJet M1132 MFP. Any ideas how to fix this ?
[09:25] <cyb3rcl0wn> wow
[09:25] <bait> check if hp has drivers for linux
[09:25] <Klojum> Add paper?
[09:27] <Ubik_> bait: i did not mention virtualbox would run on a windows xp machine does it change anything? (i think you d guess that anyway)
[09:31] <shark> I have 3.15.7 HPLIP, my printer requires 3.10.4 or higher.
[09:31] <qoor> I'm on 15.04, how can I prefetch all the needed files for 15.10 without actually performing the upgrade part til later
[09:32] <qoor> My internet is slow
[09:32] <cfhowlett> qoor, torrent
[09:33] <qoor> cfhowlett, just download the iso of 15.10?
[09:33] <cfhowlett> TORRENT the .iso of 15.10   perfect for slow speed internet
[09:33] <Klojum> Use the zsync tool to update your ISO file.
[09:33] <bait> ubik, i don't know, why would you do that?
[09:34] <bait> havn't touched xp in years
[09:34] <sallu> anyone using ubuntu in uefi mode enabled
[09:34] <bait> i am
[09:34] <shark> Any other solutions for my printer problem ?
[09:34] <sallu> no one is using linux in uefi mode
[09:34] <sallu> bait, ok
[09:35] <bait> it's not uefi mode
[09:35] <bait> it's uefi
[09:35] <sallu> bait, you are using dual boot
[09:35] <bait> and everybody basically has uefi
[09:35] <Klojum> sallu: what's the real question?
[09:35] <qoor> cfhowlett: Is it a matter of simply running the iso file once it's completed?
[09:35] <sallu> real question is i have a friend who is having issue with uefi , he is here , Hi AF_
[09:35] <AF_> hi sallu
[09:35] <bait> ubuntu is signed on uefi
[09:35] <cfhowlett> qoor, make a boot USB, boot from USB and clean install ubuntu 15.10
[09:36] <bait> try 14.04
[09:36] <sallu> bait, you using dual boot ?
[09:36] <AF_> cfhowlett, want to install along side ubuntu
[09:36] <AF_> *window
[09:36] <bait> no, and it doesn't matter
[09:36] <cfhowlett> AF_, ? not following.  what???
[09:36] <sallu> Klojum, you got the point , i explain again what issue i really found on HP
[09:36] <bait> uefi is signed for uefi, it will install without issue even if you have uefi
[09:36] <bait> i mean ubuntu is signed on uefi
[09:37] <bait> some other distributions may not work though
[09:37] <qoor> cfhowlett: What about my home directory and installed programs, will they survive that?
[09:37] <cfhowlett> !home | qoor, probably if you avoid formatting your /home.  certainly if you have  a dedicated /home
[09:38] <sallu> The problem was that HP hard coded the path for the OS boot manager in their UEFI boot manager to
[09:38] <sallu> \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi to boot microsoft windows
[09:38] <qoor> Thanks for your advice!
[09:38] <sallu> is that right ?
[09:38] <Klojum> cfhowlett: FYI, read up on this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ZsyncCdImage   You can keep your ISO file update, and Ubuntu supports it.
[09:38] <cfhowlett> qoor, happy2help!
[09:39] <cfhowlett> Klojum, will do
[09:39] <sallu> bait, ubuntu is signed on uefi ? what do you mean by that ... every OS support legacy mode
[09:39] <bait> uefi only allows signed operating systems to be installed
[09:40] <bait> a lot of distributions of linux don't bother going through the signing processing, it is expensive and annoying
[09:40] <bait> ubuntu does go through it
[09:40] <Klojum> Just put your computer into legacy mode and install your OS.
[09:41] <AF_> sallu, what if i switched back to bot mode
[09:41] <AF_> *boot
[09:41] <sallu> Klojum, you have absolutely no understanding of uefi then
[09:41] <sallu> bait, i tell you
[09:41] <bait> hmmm, i never tried installing linux on hp
[09:42] <bait> i doubt it's an issue even with dual boot though
[09:43] <Alex11223> hi, I have USB wireless adapter TP-LINK WN722N and Ubuntu 14.04.3 in VMWare Player.
[09:43] <Alex11223> I connected adapter to it and when I write lsusb I can see it (Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0cf3:9271 Atheros Communications, Inc. AR9271 802.11n) but wifi does not work, iwconfig or airmon-ng does not show it
[09:43] <Alex11223> I even tried to add firmware to lib/firmware and install backports but it did not help. What should I do?
[09:43] <bait> just go into uefi, set your installation media as first boot option, then install
[09:43] <bait> you do need unused hard drive space to install though
[09:44] <sallu> AF_, hmmmm
[09:44] <sallu> bait, you talking about uefi with secure boot on, which usually doesn't not allow unsigned OS, you are right
[09:45] <sallu> AF_, listen to bait
[09:45] <AF_> hmm
[09:47] <sallu> bait, he has windows 10 already installed in uefi mode, and now he wants to install ubuntu alongside ..
[09:47] <sallu> as a dual boot
[09:47] <bait> make him use wubi
[09:48] <bait> if he's scared
[09:48] <bekks> !wubi | bait
[09:49] <bait> !install
[09:50] <bekks> bait: wubi isnt supported anymore.
[09:50] <bait> oh
[09:50] <bait> never used it, wouldn't nko
[09:50] <motaka2> Hello, I was using ubuntu 1204 on one system it stated not to boot, I disconnected the hard drive and used another case using the previous hard darive and now I see my desktop
[09:50] <motaka2> what should I do ?
[09:50] <sallu> af_
[09:51] <sallu> bait, he tried to use wubi , stub
[09:51] <sallu> where is he
[09:51] <sallu> ahmad where are you ?
[09:52] <Guest87634> hello
[09:52] <bait> he has several options
[09:52] <sallu> what is hellp
[09:52] <sallu> who is Guest87634 ?
[09:52] <bait> 1. use virtual box with ubuntu, slower but has full features
[09:52] <sallu> ahmad are you a guest here
[09:53] <Guest87634> i
[09:53] <sallu> guest use command /nick ahmad
[09:53] <bait> 2. repartition his hard drive or get new hard drive, try installing ubuntu
[09:53] <MonkeyDust> sallu  confine yourself to ubuntu support qsuestions
[09:53] <sallu> MonkeyDust, its related to ubuntu in Hp laptops ?, don't you think that i am also trying to help other people here
[09:54] <Guest87634> Hi I m italian
[09:54] <sallu> bait, yeah i told him to break one last partition in to 3 ext 4 partitions , one for root , one for home , and one for swap\
[09:54] <bait> and before you do anything, try live version of ubuntu without installing, so you can test stability
[09:55] <Guest87634> :http://www.ubuntu.com
[09:56] <bait> motaka, your question isn't clear
[09:56] <bait> is the issue heat?
[09:56] <AF_> sallu, hmmmmm
[09:56] <sallu> bait, but are you sure it will work with dual boot , ubuntu grub handle everything even in uefi mode
[09:57] <bait> uefi dual boot uses boot order
[09:57] <bait> if the live version works, shouldn't be a problem
[09:58] <bait> if something goes wrong, it won't affect windows
[09:58] <bait> you can just format the ubuntu partition
[09:58] <bait> and increase the windows partition to roll things back
[09:58] <bait> assuming you do things right, the risk is low
[09:58] <bait> assuming you make mistakes, problems can occur
[09:59] <sallu> hmmmm
[09:59] <sallu> AF_, hmmmm
[09:59] <sallu> bait, yeah right, i do that to his hp probook and will let you guys know the updates
[10:00] <Dashell> i just upgraded to the latest ubuntu, but when i restarted after the upgrade, all it does is go to the Lubuntu screen, all the little dots light up and the nothing happens, it doesn't load anything else
[10:00] <Dashell> i waited almost 20 minutes and nothing happened
[10:01] <bait> try to run in safe mode, back up all files, re-install
[10:01] <bekks> bait: This isnt windows.
[10:01] <bekks> Dashell: which graphics adapter do you have?
[10:02] <bait> um, there is a safe mode for ubuntu as well
[10:02] <Dashell> i don't know, it was an AMD card, and I mean i can't check because it won't boot
[10:02] <Dashell> it was the xf something,
[10:02] <bekks> !nomodeset | Dashell
[10:02] <sallu> hmmm
[10:02] <bait> oh, now i remember what i did
[10:03] <bait> i ran the live version from usb, backed up files
[10:03] <Dashell> how do i get into a terminal when ubutnu doesn't load?
[10:03] <bait> then reinstalled
[10:03] <cfhowlett> Dashell, read the wiki.
[10:03] <Dashell> and the screen isn't black, it just doesn't go past the loading screen
[10:06] <detha> When trying to do a PXE install on an isolated network, the installer still wants to contact security.ubuntu.com, and hangs if it isn't given access to that. How does one tell it not to try that?
[10:07] <cfhowlett> detha, pretty sure #ubuntu-server has more experience with PXE than this channel
[10:07] <detha> thanks, let me try that
[10:10] <szybki_slup> Hi. I'm trying to install Ubuntu Server 15.10, and I have strange issue. The installer stuck on "Installing the base system | Retrieving libc-bin". I was trying to install Ubuntu on different computers, but always the same issue. I can't download libc-bin_2.21-0ubuntu4_i386.deb even via the browser. The strange thing is, that when I'm trying to do that using different internet connection, it works without any problems. Any ideas
[10:10] <cfhowlett> !server | szybki_slup
[10:10] <MonkeyDust> szybki_slup  there's also #ubuntu-server
[10:10] <MonkeyDust> cfhowlett  was faster
[10:11] <cfhowlett> doubleshot latte will do that to you ...
[10:11] <MonkeyDust> cfhowlett  black coffee with sugar here
[10:12] <szybki_slup> ok, tkanks
[10:21] <motaka2> Hello, I was using ubuntu 1204 on one system it stated not to boot, I disconnected the hard drive and used another case using the previous hard darive and now I see my desktop
[10:22] <bekks> motaka2: So if you see your desktop now, whats the issue?
[10:23] <Niesh_> Hi , i'm using ubuntu 14.04 and want to install dev package KF5 form kde  can anyone help in installing that
[10:24] <motaka2> bekks: I think I have to back up first
[10:24] <Guest13736> hi, where can i find in xubuntu a hardware-check
[10:25] <bait> they only check ram or memory
[10:25] <Guest13736> i want to see what kind of hardware i into
[10:25] <Seveas> Guest13736: sudo lshw | less
[10:25] <Guest13736> because what kind off distribution is correktly for it
[10:26] <Niesh_> kde suggested me to ask in ubuntu form as as the names can differ between them.
[10:27] <Seveas> Niesh_: there seem to be many kf5 packages
[10:27] <erxr3> hello everyone, is ddrescue a tool to create a disk image, on which you can apply further data recovery tools, or is it by itself a tool to recover data from images?
[10:27] <Seveas> Niesh_: apt-cache search kf5 | grep -- '-dev'
[10:28] <Seveas> erxr3: the former
[10:28] <Seveas> erxr3: additional recovery tools would be things like simply trying to mount the image, or tools like photorec.
[10:28] <erxr3> Seveas, I thought so.
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> Guest13736  sudo lshw -html > hardware.html gives a nicer output
[10:29] <Guest13736> Seveas, thanks where can i post the configuration?
[10:29] <erxr3> Seveas, yes, I am in the process of a partition recovery, and created via ddrescue an image of the partition, and applied testdisk on it. but it didnt save any data. this may have to do with that the partition could not retain the data I'd saved there
[10:29] <Seveas> Guest13736: wherever you want as long as it's not in here :)
[10:30] <Guest13736> Seveas,  thats the problem ;-)
[10:30] <Niesh_> Seveas: thanks
[10:30] <erxr3> Seveas, is there any other way to make sure whether the partition contains the data or not?
[10:31] <Seveas> erxr3: I'd mount it and do 'ls' :)
[10:36] <Guest13736> Seveas, there was a link to post the configuration in web and give you a link
[10:37] <MonkeyDust> Guest13736  i think you mean pastebinit
[10:37] <erxr3> Seveas, the problem is, I cannot mount it. as I've told some people here yesterday, I had a file system mess while creating partitions and saving data on them. and I found out that this partition, that I created and saved data on in the previous session, has become labelled as "unknown". yet it can still be shown in the output of fdisk here; /dev/sdb9
[10:38] <erxr3> it is shown as "unknown" like this: http://is.gd/3Vwruq
[10:38] <Guest13736> MonkeyDust,  yes thanks!
[10:41] <erxr3> when I just tried to mount it I got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061785/
[10:43] <erxr3> this was formerly a partition that I effectively cut-pasted data on, and could lock as encrypted. so there must be data there. but testdisk returned zero output
[10:43] <erxr3> even if the filesystem has been messed, the data cannot vanish, right?
[10:47] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  does lsbl show something useful
[10:47] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  does lsblk show something useful
[10:48] <erxr3> sorry, just noticed that I copied the the paste link of fdisk incorrectly: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061765/
[10:48] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, I will check right now
[10:49] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  and sudo blkid
[10:49] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, it gives this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061835/
[10:50] <Kapuh> Hello is there anyone who can recommend a good snapshot back up app for ubuntu ?
[10:50] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061841/
[10:50] <erxr3> the latter paste doesnt display the partition /dev/sdb9
[10:51] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  idd, that's odd
[10:52] <cfhowlett> Kapuh, "back in time"
[10:53] <erxr3> yes, I cant make any sense of this, either. as I wrote, I created the partition and moved files there successfully, and locked the partition after it. next time I inserted it in, this was what I saw
[10:53] <Kapuh> cfhowlett: gonna take a look. 2 sek :) and thanks .
[10:53] <cfhowlett> happy2help! Kapuh
[10:54] <Niesh_> can i get the package name for installing KF5CoreAddons?
[10:54] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  i tried your 'mount' line here, with a non-existing partition... it shows the same error like what you see... from that I learn, your sdb9 simply doesnt exist
[10:55] <Niesh_> I tried libkf5coreaddons5 but its not founf
[10:56] <Kapuh> cfhowlett: exactly what I was looking for, thank you :)
[10:56] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, but, apart from the filesystem, I did transfer 2,5GB of data by cut-paste there, and saw the file transfer process running in nautilus. all I want to do is now to reach the data there.
[10:56] <Seveas> Niesh_: libkf5coreaddons5 exists in wily. Which Ubuntu version are you on?
[10:56] <Seveas> !find libkf5coreaddons
[10:57] <erxr3> whatever happened to filesystem, I can be sure of that I transferred the files there.
[10:57] <Niesh_> Seveas: 14.04
[10:57] <Seveas> !find libkf5coreaddons trusty
[10:57] <Seveas> Niesh_: time to upgrade :)
[10:57] <Seveas> !find coreaddons trusty
[10:57] <erxr3> unless, that nautilus would agree to the file transfer to a partition that seemingly existed but in fact didnt
[10:58] <Niesh_> ok
[10:58] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  and that was to sdb9?
[10:58] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, yes
[10:59] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  try a live session, maybe you can reach the partition from there, so at least you know you have access to it
[11:00] <neil_> I am having trouble with nfs for the last week or so... it works for a while then stops the only thing that fixes it is a power off/on ... a reboot doesn't work.
[11:00] <Seveas> neil_: that smells like nfs over udp and a broken firewall
[11:01] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, would it make a difference? because the partition is on an external drive, I mean, already out of my system
[11:01] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  ok
[11:02] <neil_> Seveas, there is a firewall, I will remove it and see if that fixes anything
[11:03] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, and this happened to two different external drives, where the same partition was created identically. both were created successfully as I mentioned, and both were shown messed in the same next session.
[11:04] <Seveas> neil_: make sure it's stateless and doesn't do deep packet inspection.
[11:05] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  you already tried   sudo fdisk -l ?
[11:07] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, yes, I did: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061765/
[11:07] <erxr3> I can see the partition there
[11:07] <erxr3> visible also with lsblk, but not with blkid
[11:07] <omen> is there statics about servers used in www hosting?
[11:08] <erxr3> when I specify the filesystem, it gives this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061913/
[11:08] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  and visible / mountable in nautilus?
[11:08] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, no, nautilus doesnt show it
[11:09] <bogu> hertz
[11:10] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, also dmesg | tail shows it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061947/
[11:10] <erxr3> but cannot find filesystem
[11:11] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  i have this from a book: sudo fsck -TV /dev/sdb9
[11:11] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, I have zero knowledge of fsck, and I think things get only worse once it is applied in a wrong way, right?
[11:12] <erxr3> I messed things up once earlier with it
[11:13] <adante> hi, i'm on 14.10,  run an apt-get upgrade and it failed (404). is it safe for me to just dist-upgrade at this point?
[11:13] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | adante
[11:13] <bazhang> check eolupgrades  link adante
[11:14] <cfhowlett> for the record adante, you'll need to do 14.10 >> 15.04         15.04 goes end of life in 3 months so  >>> 15.10
[11:16] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  try   sudo tune2fs -l /dev/sdb9 | grep mount     <-- -l simply means list
[11:17] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, it says this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13061981/
[11:18] <neil_> Seveas, I removed the firewall, but still the nfs doesn't work.
[11:18] <neil_> Seveas, I have tried to restart the nfs-kernel-server but that didn't fix it ether
[11:19] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  i don't know what that magic number means
[11:20] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, it has something to do with MBR?
[11:20] <MonkeyDust> erxr3  exciting problem, from a technicians point of view... but gotta go now, I hope you find a solution
[11:20] <erxr3> MonkeyDust, sure, thank you very much for all your helping effort
[11:21] <cfhowlett> erxr3, no answers from me either, but I wonder if #linux might know
[11:21] <erxr3> cfhowlett, thank you, I will try there, too
[11:22] <erxr3> cfhowlett, do you think debian channel might be useful,tooß
[11:22] <erxr3> ?
[11:22] <bogu> interest wifi
[11:22] <cfhowlett> erxr3, couldn't hurt.  their response will likely be: "ask ubuntu"!
[11:24] <erxr3> cfhowlett, I see, thank you. I have just found a suggested solution to fix filesystem using testdisk in cases of "unknown" partitions like mine. but I cannot figure the correct one in the list of partitions that testdisk provides. is there a way to identify the right partition?
[11:24] <simonepsp> hello everyone. Someone knows how to expand an LVM thatuses LUKS. I've some free space on my HDD and I'd like to use it. Thanks
[11:25] <erxr3> testdisk only shows their start-end points nd sizes in sectors
[11:25] <erxr3> and*
[11:25] <cfhowlett> I have never used testdisk.  (knock on wood.)  sorry, can't advise.
[11:25] <erxr3> ok, thank you
[11:30] <simonepsp> Someone knows how to expand an LVM volume that uses LUKS? :( I've found an article on the Ubuntu wiki  but it didn't helped me. Thanks
[11:31] <adante> cfhowlett: so i don't have a sources list like shown in the eolupgrades link, where do i go from there?
[11:32] <erxr3> or is anyone familiar with testdisk here?
[11:32] <cfhowlett> adante, if you installed ubuntu, you have a sources.list.   do this:  more /etc/apt/sources.list | nc termbin.com 9999
[11:32] <cfhowlett> adante, paste the url here
[11:33] <adante> cfhowlett: hah coolest way i've seen to get someone pastebin something... http://termbin.com/x9oa
[11:33] <cfhowlett> adante, that looks like ... your sources!
[11:33] <adante> cfhowlett: sorry when i said i don't have a sources list like the one shown i mean i don't have the old-releases entry. also a bit confused as i am on utopic but all the entries there are trusty. but maybe i'm misunderstanding
[11:34] <adante> cfhowlett: yes sorry i meant that it is not like the one shown in the eolupgrade link, not that i do not have one
[11:34] <cfhowlett> adante, so instead of utopic, you sub your distro
[11:34] <adante> my distro is currently utopic
[11:34] <cfhowlett> adante, hey, you have an LTS release 14.04.  why upgrade??
[11:35] <cfhowlett> adante, your distro on your installed HDD ubuntu?  right?
[11:35] <adante> cfhowlett: when i try to apt-get upgrade it 404's, i got the impression that this was because i was eoling but i guess i am mistaken
[11:35] <cfhowlett> lsb_release -a        adante
[11:36] <adante> cfhowlett: thanks, yes turns out i'm on 14.04
[11:37] <cfhowlett> adante, then you're also set to LTS releases only is my bet.  turn that off and go 14.04 >> 14.10 >> 15.04 >> 15.10   OR save time/sanity by torrenting 15.10 and clean installing
[11:37] <adante> so i guess followup question http://pastebin.com/FMshhhy0 - how do i resolve this stuff?
[11:37] <cfhowlett> pastebin is blocked for me here in china.  sorry.
[11:38] <adante> cfhowlett: not sure if that works http://hastebin.com/opemusonuc.avrasm
[11:39] <adante> is this an issue with the au.archive or something else? i considered changing my sources to non au
[11:41] <cfhowlett> adante, I've no idea about au sources, but feel free to try a different mirror.  also, assuming you are running pastebinit, you can easily edit your paste host to ubuntu.  paste.ubuntu.com/13062108/
[11:41] <cfhowlett> if you edit your /home/.pastebinit.xml
[11:47] <adante> cfhowlett: cheers
[11:47] <cfhowlett> adante, ?
[11:47] <adante> cfhowlett: just saying thanks for your help! i'll give that a go
[11:47] <cfhowlett> adante, happy2help!
[11:50] <linux> HELLO

[11:53] <Humorousone> Hello
[11:53] <Seveas> hi Humorousone
[11:53] <linux> SEND FOR ME IMAGE
[11:53] <Humorousone> I'm back with the same flashing window issue I've been having for a while
[11:54] <Humorousone> Is there any way to stop ubuntu from just doing this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/690658/screen-flashes-white-every-few-seconds-15-10-hp-dv6
[11:54] <Humorousone> The bottom copied line of the log is more significant, I think
[11:55] <Humorousone> and hey Seveas :)
[11:55] <huig> hello, i am setting eth0 up but i should be getting an ipv6 scope local addr but i am not getting one
[11:56] <Seveas> huig: how are you setting it up?
[11:56] <huig> Seveas: ifconfig eth0 up..i also tried ip link set dev eth0 up
[11:57] <Seveas> pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces please
[11:58] <huig> Seveas: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13062505/
[11:59] <Seveas> huig: and what makes you think you should get a local scope address without any configuration?
[11:59] <stefan__> hi my flopy do not work
[11:59] <huig> Seveas: as i understand, in ipv6 u get by default a link local address based on the MAC or on some other algorithm
[12:00] <stefan__> Error mounting system-managed device /dev/fd0: Command-line `mount "/media/floppy0"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[12:00] <stefan__> xubuntu
[12:00] <Seveas> stefan__: have you tried specifying the filesystem type? Also, 1999 called and wants its hardware back...
[12:02] <stefan__> Seveas, i dont trie anything because i dont understand
[12:02] <Seveas> stefan__: so what did you try?
[12:02] <stefan__> what must i do?
[12:02] <stefan__> Seveas, nothing installing new xubuntu, the flopy is on dthe desktop - not more
[12:03] <Seveas> huig: you'll still need to tell it to assign an address.
[12:03] <Seveas> stefan__: the floppy you inserted has been formatted properly?
[12:04] <stefan__> yes i'l think so, is wa an old disy
[12:04] <huig> Seveas: and how do i do that?i thought it was automatic
[12:04] <Seveas> stefan__: can you repeat that in english? :)
[12:04] <stefan__> Seveas, ha! another flopy works!
[12:05] <Seveas> huig: either use networkmanager and let it handle this, or read the 'interfaces' manpage.
[12:07] <erxr3> I also got this error when I was trying to restore filesystem via testdisk: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13062555/
[12:08] <stefan__> hm... can ubuntu read old windows written flopy?
[12:09] <Seveas> yeah
[12:09] <stefan__> how can i check the flopy, there are  many flopys without anything, but it cant
[12:12] <erxr3> in the device list of gnome disk utility, I also see a greyed "zzz"..and when I want to power-off, I am asked if I want to power-off, which normally doesnt happen (the drive just gets powered off)
[12:12] <erxr3> http://is.gd/8Wy44o
[12:14] <erxr3> and when I try "safely remove drive" via nautilus, I get this: http://is.gd/uDEXeE
[12:16] <erxr3> I lost partitions among all these strange behaviours lately. can you please help me know how I can handle these actions?
[12:16] <fragtion> lo all. upgraded my server to 15.10 which went ok, but after the reboot I'm not seeing eth0. the VMware NIC is detected with lspci, but ifup is segfaults on boot query
[12:16] <fragtion> is this a known issue ?
[12:19] <MonkeyDust> fragtion  there's also #ubuntu-server
[12:20] <fragtion> ty
[12:20] <fragtion> more of a generic issue im sure though
[12:20] <fragtion> its only happening to my cloud server, other machines updated fine
[12:22] <rom-> how do I use a jsp file...
[12:22] <|\n> hello, i heard that there is some nvidia-prime thing which could help me with nvidia optimus instead of bumblebee, so currently after purging anything related to nvidia and bumblebee and installing nvidia-346-updates nvidia-settings nvidia-prime (with reboot) i can see only https://i.imgur.com/4gWJllh.png , is it supported way of making optimus thing useful?
[12:23] <rom-> by installing tomcat on ubuntu I believe right?
[12:24] <joker_> hi
[12:36] <eahmedshendy> USB Kingston appears 67.1MB (using lsscsi -s), but it should be 16GB, how to know if this flash is corrupted or can be fixed?
[12:37] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  with lsblk, what does it show?
[12:39] <erxr3> hello everyone, are you familiar with data rescue via gparted?
[12:39] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust: sdb      8:16   1    64M  0 disk
[12:40] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  so that's yet another value (64M)
[12:40] <eahmedshendy> :)
[12:41] <eahmedshendy> I don't know, I just run (lsscsi -s)
[12:41] <eahmedshendy> using fdiks command: Disk /dev/sdb: 67 MB, 67108864 bytes
[12:41] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust:
[12:44] <erxr3> is there anyone experienced with detecting lost file systems via gparted?
[12:45] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  is that usb 3.0 ?
[12:45] <BluesKaj> hiyas all
[12:46] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust: I don't remember, how to know by command?
[12:47] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  not sure, but i guess the question really is, how ubuntu deals with usb 3
[12:47] <Morientes> HI, can someone help me please, when I insert a dvd with photos it appears like that: http://prnt.sc/8xrdud
[12:48] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  try   lsusb | grep USB
[12:50] <eahmedshendy> noting
[12:50] <eahmedshendy> But this appears instead: 1516:1238 CompUSA
[12:50] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust
[12:51] <eahmedshendy> MonkeyDust: I run a windows virtual machine, it detects the USB as CompUSA "BootLoader"
[12:51] <ioria> Morientes, others dvds  working ?
[12:51] <erxr3> could you please help me know if the image file has the correct extension here; sudo ddrescue /dev/sdb9 ~/Documents/tosh.img tosh.logfile ?
[12:52] <erxr3> does it need to be .img or .dd ?
[12:52] <Morientes> ioria: yes...
[12:52] <MonkeyDust> eahmedshendy  i'm not familiar with lsscsi... did you read   man lsscsi ?
[12:53] <ioria> Morientes, what are, jpeg , tiff ... ?
[12:53] <neil_> ioria, jpeg is a picture file format.
[12:53] <Morientes> ioria: I am not very very sure but I think they are jpg
[12:54] <ioria> Morientes, if you click one of them ?
[12:54] <neil_> ioria, I think tiff files are used for fax images.
[12:54] <erxr3> does the extension need to be .img, .dd or .iso?
[12:54] <Morientes> a new window appears, "Select an application to open "unknown" files"
[12:54] <ioria> neil_, ok
[12:55] <ioria> Morientes, have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[12:55] <Morientes> I don't think that I have it...
[12:55] <Morientes> Excuse me, I am a beginner...
[12:56] <ioria> Morientes, try, if nothing change remove it
[12:56] <ioria> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:57] <Morientes> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[12:57] <Morientes> is it right ?

[13:04] <motaka2> Does anyone knows when a person whose nickname starts by df would be on line?
[13:05] <auronandace> motaka2: you could outline your issue and see if anyone else can help
[13:07] <boxmein> help, my graphics card doesn't real and I can't figure out why
[13:09] <Morientes> ioria: Now it's appearing this http://prnt.sc/8xrks5 how can I accept it please?
[13:09] <ioria> Morientes, press Enter
[13:09] <motaka2> auronandace: It would tale a long time, but I will try so , for a long time I was reciving an error saying /temp is not ready to use I was ignoring it. lately I had to restart the PC several times so once among those restarts the system would boot. I wanted to try a new ubuntu on DVD or usb but I couldnt. Now I removed the hard and connected it to a another case and my system boots. I wonder...
[13:09] <motaka2> ...what should I do rather than backupping important files and then how can I fix the issue with the first case which has more RAM?
[13:10] <Morientes> ioria: is not happening nothing after enter... :)

[13:15] <Nicholas> anyone know how to decrease screen brightness in ubuntu?
[13:15] <motaka2> auronandace: I selected using ubunti without installation and then it stayed for a long time on a blinking black page
[13:15] <motaka2> auronandace: I think my case suffers a hardware issue
[13:16] <boxmein> Nicholas: sudo su, then as root, ls /sys/class/backlight, try one of those dirs and echo stuff to /sys/class/backlight/chosen_backlight/brightness
[13:16] <linux1111> Hi there
[13:16] <auronandace> motaka2: how old is the ram?
[13:16] <boxmein> Nicholas: for example, for me, # echo 500 > /sys/class/intel_backlight/brightness sets to half brightness
[13:16] <linux1111> Everytime I wipe my USB using dd I find a new folder lost+found.
[13:16] <linux1111> why is that happening?
[13:16] <motaka2> auronandace: maybe about 6 years but the other case on which the hard works it is ten years
[13:17] <Nicholas> boxmein they are just dimming the screen. not actually decreasing the lcd light . i would like to dim the lcd screen to save power
[13:17] <cfhowlett> linux1111, dd is a file copy command not a wipe command
[13:17] <k1l> linux1111: lost&found is a directory made by ext2/3/4 for data that got corrupted and was recovered by ext again
[13:17] <boxmein> linux1111: something (the fs driver or something else) is recovering files from broken data
[13:17] <auronandace> motaka2: hmm, age is not the only factor in ram going bad. if you want to rule out ram as the issue then running a memtest would help
[13:18] <linux1111> so what do I do now?
[13:18] <boxmein> Nicholas: not really...? for me it literally changes the backlight, not dimming
[13:18] <linux1111> I need a clean usb
[13:18] <boxmein> Nicholas: with xrandr I can tell it to dim and it's clearly different
[13:18] <k1l> linux1111: it is clean
[13:18] <linux1111> like with no data on it.
[13:19] <linux1111> how do i wipe it?
[13:19] <linux1111> this lost&found dir is like 19 kb
[13:19] <k1l> linux1111: dont use dd to wipe it. just press "format " in the disk utility or gparted
[13:19] <Nicholas> boxmein ok i'll see. thanks much appreciate it
[13:19] <linux1111> I just have the terminal
[13:19] <linux1111> Im using ubuntugutty
[13:19] <boxmein> linux1111: good old fdisk
[13:19] <k1l> linux1111: well, delete that folder?
[13:20] <boxmein> linux1111: recreate the partition table, make one partition and reformat it as ext4 or god knows
[13:20] <motaka2> auronandace: memtest could be ran when the system is is on OS selection page?
[13:20] <auronandace> motaka2: yes, it is an option in grub
[13:21] <MonkeyDust> linux1111  what ubuntu are you using? what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[13:21] <boxmein> linux1111: something like fdisk /dev/myusb, then n, follow orders, w, q, and then mkfs.ext4 /dev/myusb1
[13:21] <motaka2> auronandace: When I touch the case I feel like being effected by electricity but it's been like that for a long time. Could the dust make a short circuit ?
[13:21] <linux1111> im doin that right now boxmein
[13:22] <cfhowlett> motaka2, it could and that is abnormal and dangerous behavior.  dangerous to you and your system as well
[13:22] <auronandace> motaka2: sorry, i'm not much of a hardware expert, i'll let someone more experienced answer that
[13:22] <motaka2> cfhowlett: Thank you
[13:23] <Morientes> ioria: should I reboot? it seems that ubuntu-restricted-extras has been installed, I took out the dvd and inset it again, and now it doesn't show it at all
[13:24] <Morientes> ioria: no content at all, even how it looked before, at the begining...
[13:25] <Morientes> oh, yes, now is like at the beginning, sorry :)
[13:25] <motaka2> I will take my system to an expert
[13:25] <ioria> Morientes, reboot :(
[13:26] <fragtion> whats the easiest way to switch from ensxxx interface naming back to ethx , on wily? (since it evidently broke this on half of my machines)
[13:26] <Morientes> ioria: the same "Select an app to open "unknown" files"
[13:26] <Morientes> ioria: ok...
[13:26] <ioria> Morientes, wait
[13:26] <Morientes> ok, waiting
[13:26] <ioria> Morientes, open your Image viewer and nagigate the disk
[13:26] <ioria> *navigate
[13:27] <vincent_LP> Anyone know is it possible for me to develop Android phone like samsung note 4 under ubuntu?
[13:27] <Morientes> ok
[13:27] <MonkeyDust> !phone | vincent_LP
[13:28] <vincent_LP> thank you ubottu
[13:29] <Morientes> ioria: http://prnt.sc/8xrrky it seems that is not working nether this way
[13:30] <ioria> Morientes, ok, in terminal run this   : sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh    and reboot
[13:32] <Morientes> ioria: done: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
[13:32] <Morientes> reboot now, be right back.
[13:32] <ioria> Morientes, reboot
[13:32] <ioria> ok
[13:39] <Morientes> ioria: thank you very much, it's working perfect now...
[13:39] <ioria> Morientes, good , have fun
[13:40] <Morientes> you toooo :) thank you.
[13:40] <Guest9576> dual boot question. I've been trying to dual boot with Windows 10. Windows 10 would load automatically until i renamed the directory, now I can't get grub to recognize that windows is there... how can I do that?
[13:40] <ioria> Morientes, no problem, tx
[13:42] <Kaspi> My qt on my lubuntu is missing libmysqlclient_r.so.16 any idea how to get it? I tried installing libmysqlclient. http://pastie.org/10520195
[13:42] <ioria> Kaspi lubuntu does not use qt, i think
[13:43] <Kaspi> I've installed it and using it for a project
[13:43] <ioria> oh
[13:43] <Kaspi> trying to us it*
[13:43] <Kaspi> use
[13:43] <ioria> i remember that is 18, not 16
[13:44] <Kaspi> libmysqlclient18 is, but as you can see according to the ldd output, it wants the specific *.so and I don't know where to get it :(
[13:44] <auronandace> Kaspi: you say you installed it, why is qt in your /home/?
[13:45] <Kaspi> That's where I have installed Qt, using their Maintanence tool
[13:46] <Kaspi> It's Qt 5.4 btw
[13:48] <Kaspi> Do you think I should try asking in #qt instead?
[13:48] <ioria> Kaspi 16 was on Lucid
[13:48] <Kaspi> hmm
[13:49] <Kaspi> gotta check my lubuntu version
[13:49] <MonkeyDust> Kaspi  cat /etc/issue
[14:01] <tux38> Hi
[14:01] <tux38> Running mint
[14:01] <MonkeyDust> tux38  not here
[14:03] <cfhowlett> !mint | tux38,
[14:04] <tux38> Lol
[14:04] <tux38> Ubuntu is supported by linux
[14:04] <tux38> Mint from here on on out
[14:04] <cfhowlett> tux38, obviously. but mint is NOT ubuntu.  go to mint support.
[14:05] <MonkeyDust> tux38  don't start, mint is not supported here... you might as well go to #debian, because ubuntu is debian based
[14:05] <tux38> Too bad
[14:05] <Ubik_> hello, do u think it possible to run virtualbox on a winxp machine 1 gb mem as host and lubuntu as guest os?
[14:06] <cfhowlett> Ubik_, barely possible.  depends on how many bells and whistles your XP is running and available ram
[14:06] <tux38> So is mint
[14:06] <cfhowlett> tux38, doesn't matter.  if you want ubuntu support, install ubuntu.  otherwise go to mint for mint support.
[14:06] <Ubik_> cfhowlett: my xp is optimized for processes and mem use
[14:06] <cfhowlett> Ubik_, how much ram is left?
[14:07] <MonkeyDust> tux38  type /topic to find out what's supported here
[14:07] <tux38> Mint is my choice so please stop
[14:07] <MonkeyDust> tux38  you're in the wrong channel and you know it... what's keeping you here
[14:07] <cfhowlett> tux38, no one is trying to change your mind.  your OS is not supported here.
[14:08] <Ubik_> cfhowlett: well not much physical  and 1.2 gb virtual
[14:08] <cfhowlett> Ubik_, try it
[14:08] <Ubik_> cfhowlett: ok bb ty
[14:09] <tux38> Its a distro
[14:09] <tux38> Not an os
[14:09] <tux38> Linux mint
[14:09] <cfhowlett> and now you're just being needlessly trolly.  welcome to /ignore.
[14:10] <tux38> Incorrect
[14:10] <tux38> Your the needy little troll boy
[14:13] <Yuken> I can not, for the life of me, figure out how to disable the sound of just one program
[14:14] <tux38> You need suppirt mint and not bs so choosy
[14:14] <k1l> tux38: no need for beeing agressiv. mint is not supported here. please ask in ##linux or the mint support channels on the other netowork like the bot told you already
[14:16] <MonkeyDust> Yuken  what program?
[14:16] <k1l> Yuken: go to sound settings and mute that program in the last tab
[14:17] <Yuken> MonkeyDust, WINE.
[14:17] <Yuken> k1l, using default Lubuntu 15.10. There is nothing like that, that I can find?
[14:17] <Yuken> oops
[14:18] <Yuken> that I can find.*
[14:19] <cfhowlett> Yuken, right click on the speaker
[14:20] <pwnawannab[NE]> Is anyone using IPA server with Ubuntu 15.04?
[14:20] <MonkeyDust> pwnawannab[NE]  that's a yes/no question... what brings you here?
[14:20] <cfhowlett> pwnawannab[NE], literal answer: yes.  someone somewhere in the world.  better question: YOUR details YOUR issues
[14:21] <k1l> regular ubuntu got that PA gui control thingy. lubuntu is using PA, too?
[14:21] <pwnawannab[NE]> I have IPA server on local network and Ubuntu machine that I'd like to have users authenticate against my IPA server
[14:21] <Yuken> cfhowlett, Volume Control Settings is an option, but that opens up a blank terminal
[14:22] <pwnawannab[NE]> need a place to start config
[14:22] <cfhowlett> Yuken, on my lubuntu, it opens the alsmixer sound preferences
[14:22] <cfhowlett> and no app specific control option is offered
[14:22] <MonkeyDust> pwnawannab[NE]  guess you better ask in #ubuntu-server
[14:22] <pwnawannab[NE]> thanks!
[14:23] <Yuken> cfhowlett, that does not happen with me o.o
[14:24] <cfhowlett> Yuken, in the terminal, type alsamixer
[14:25] <Yuken> cfhowlett, I can't lower the sound of individual programs there. Just the entire OS
[14:25] <cfhowlett> Yuken, precisely as I stated earlier.  lubuntu doesn't offer that option
[14:26] <Yuken> cfhowlett, how would I be able to do so, if there is a way?
[14:26] <cfhowlett> Yuken, somewhere in the guts of WINE there's a setting for sound... ask wine channels for directions
[14:27] <Yuken> Just #wine?
[14:27] <cfhowlett> !wine | Yuken
[14:27] <MonkeyDust> or #winehq
[14:28] <Yuken> Thank you, cfhowlett & MonkeyDust
[14:28] <cfhowlett> Yuken, happy2help!

[14:37] <|\n> i have the exactly same situation https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1218322/comments/512 is it still present in 15.10?
[14:38] <|\n> 6 months since this comment i just thought there could be something that fixed it already
[14:38] <MonkeyDust> |\n  you can add your name to the list of affecrted people
[14:39] <|\n> sure, any workarounds by chance, MonkeyDust ?
[14:40] <MonkeyDust> |\n  i have keyboard layout issue too, bug has been reported, but no solution yes... i solve it with this, maybe you can try it too... workaround, not a solution ... sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
[14:40] <MonkeyDust> yes = yet
[14:41] <|\n> doing it every time, thanks, MonkeyDust
[14:41] <MonkeyDust> |\n  you knwo that one?
[14:41] <MonkeyDust> knew*

[15:09] <erxr3> hello again, when I type "file diskimage.img" I get the output: "diskimage.img: data" what does "data" mean here?
[15:23] <tombtc> hi there. I updated my nvidia drivers and now something is wrong. I can't close any apps with X button  http://imgur.com/MPVwAcZ
[15:23] <tombtc> there is no X buton :P
[15:23] <BlueShark> Hi. How can I view the terminal log?
[15:23] <UniFreak> how to produce the sign ° in ubuntu?
[15:23] <UniFreak> see here: http://superuser.com/questions/510907/unicode-composition-in-sublime-text/671651#671651
[15:23] <BlueShark> I'm not talking about the ~/.bash_history one - I want to see the scrollback, including the output too.
[15:24] <BlueShark> Any way to do that?
[15:24] <UniFreak> but when I do it, the sign didn't show up in any text editor, gedit, sublimetext, and so on
[15:24] <xubuntu> hi
[15:24] <xubuntu> i got my xubuntu installing right now just downloaded it yesterday put it on a dvd
[15:35] <WereCatf> I just tried to boot Ubuntu from a USB3 HDD only to have it fail. Apparently, Ubuntu's initramfs doesn't load USB3-modules before attempting to mount filesystems. Is there some good reason for this?
[15:36] <erxr3> hello, testdisk returned these results when I searched "unknown media" instead of "intel partitions" : http://paste.ubuntu.com/13065008/
[15:37] <film> hallo
[15:37] <film> film
[15:37] <erxr3> I am supposed to be able to assign a file type here by selecting a partition, but it looks weird that 7 of them have the same size. could this be normal?
[15:37] <erxr3> because actual sizes are varying
[15:39] <erxr3> and I guess I should change the file type to Linux LUKS, right?
[15:42] <OerHeks> erxr3, only if you are sure you had a LUKS partition
[15:42] <erxr3> OerHeks, yes it was ext4 with luks encrypted
[15:42] <OerHeks> but as you are recovering from a raw image, anything can come up.
[15:43] <OerHeks> really, recovering a luks partition ? .. good luck.
[15:44] <erxr3> OerHeks, I am "trying to try" multiple things here. with this last one I ran testdisk on the actual disk, using its "unknown media" option
[15:44] <micah> hi, if I want to upgrade from 12.04LTS to wily... should I step through each upgrade until that release?
[15:44] <k1l> micah: yes.
[15:44] <k1l> you can only go 14.04 to 16.04 on the LTS path.
[15:45] <erxr3> OerHeks, luck is good but help would be great
[15:45] <roscoe> hi...Cant seem to install Ubuntu desktop from CD on a Dell Dimension- 32 bit computer with 512 RAM, 60 GB available space and Windows XP any ideas?
[15:45] <erxr3> I still dont know whether it will be fine if I can restore the filesystem
[15:46] <micah> k1l: ok, so I have to stay with TLS, unless I reinstall?
[15:46] <k1l> micah: no. you can leave the LTS path and go 14.04-14.10-15.04-15.10
[15:46] <k1l> but that makes it 3 upgrades in row to be made.
[15:48] <erxr3> I have an .img file, too, that I'd like to try to mount. could you help me with the right command?
[15:48] <micah> k1l: thats not a problem for me, unless there is actually a problem doing that
[15:51] <erxr3> also, I see often disk images end with .dd, but I created it as .img....are both rightß
[15:51] <erxr3> ?
[15:51] <erxr3> are they both right?
[15:52] <zteam> Hi!
[15:53] <zteam> Does anybody know a way to test a USB pendrive /flashdrive for hardware errors?
[15:54] <lotuspsychje> !testdisk | zteam
[15:55] <lotuspsychje> !info testdisk | zteam
[15:55] <zteam> I'm attempting to format a USB pendrive but the drive became read-only  and it seems impossible to fix
[15:55] <erxr3> is there a way to detect right partition in this list?
[15:55] <erxr3> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13065008/
[15:56] <lotuspsychje> zteam: did you try format with gparted?
[15:56] <WereCatf> zteam: sounds like the USB-stick detected that it can no longer write on the Flash reliably and locked itself. Test in another computer, if it happens again then it's broken.
[15:56] <zteam> lotuspsychje, thanks but Testdisk doesn't check for hardware errors, it fixes partition errors
[15:56] <zteam> lotuspsychje, I can't because it is write-protected
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> zteam: any errors?
[15:57] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: I just got here, but before you do that, I'm just assuming it's talking about unknown space in GParted due to bad superblocks?
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> zteam: try a tail -f /var/log/syslog and plug in usb
[15:58] <zteam> WereCatf, Yep, that's what I think too, just wondered if there was any way to test it, it happens
[15:59] <ST-84> I keep getting htis error with  backintime (FileUtils.cpp:368) fatal: config file specified by environment does not exist
[15:59] <ST-84> When trying to setup backup encryption
[15:59] <sloantothebone> Ugh i needs help
[15:59] <zteam> SonikkuAmerica, nope, there is a partition and working filesystem on the drive, but according to dosfsck it has errors
[15:59] <WereCatf> zteam: Unplug the stick, stick it into another port or another PC, then try to read through it with ddrescue. If that works, then try to write to it with ddrescue -- if that fails then the stick is bad.
[16:00] <sloantothebone> The colors on my screen appear darker then they should be
[16:00] <sloantothebone> I think it happened right after I opened a windows exe
[16:00] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: Hmmm... before you do what WereCatf said..
[16:00] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: can you run [ sudo fsck -f /dev/sdXY ] ($X = drive letter, $Y = partition)?
[16:00] <sloantothebone> Can someone help me troubleshoot this please?
[16:01] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: Or can it not fix that error?
[16:01] <zteam> WereCatf, I can copy any files from it, I'm just unable to create / modify files or format it
[16:01] <SonikkuAmerica> sloantothebone: The colours appear darker? Is this due to your brightness control?
[16:01] <lotuspsychje> sloantothebone: tryed a reboot?
[16:01] <sloantothebone> No i havent tried a reboot
[16:01] <lotuspsychje> sloantothebone: what kinf of windows exe, and did you runw ith wine?
[16:02] <sloantothebone> Yes with wine, it was a game
[16:02] <zteam> SonikkuAmerica, I already tried with dosfsck -a it claimed to fix alot of errors but it didn't (I assume it couldn't write them back)
[16:02] <sloantothebone> I will give you the link to the game
[16:03] <sloantothebone> this is the website: http://scpcbgame.com/
[16:03] <sloantothebone> this is the direct link to the zip file containing the program I ran: http://scpcbgame.com/SCP%20-%20Containment%20Breach%20v1.2.3.zip
[16:03] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: You can try to force a read/write mount with [ sudo mount -n -o remount,rw $MOUNT_FOLDER ]
[16:04] <sloantothebone> when i exited the program it crashed, perhaps it was supposed to turn the screen back but it didnt
[16:04] <SonikkuAmerica> zteam: and then try fixing the fs again.
[16:04] <sloantothebone> lotuspsychje
[16:04] <sloantothebone> thx for trying to help
[16:04] <zteam> sloantothebone, if you like to play windowsgames with linux you should try with PlayOnLinux it can handle many but not all Windowsgames
[16:06] <SonikkuAmerica> !wine
[16:06] <sloantothebone> Isn't playonlinux just wine?
[16:06] <sloantothebone> I'm using wine
[16:06] <SonikkuAmerica> sloantothebone: Wine with a giant Python and GTK wraparound.
[16:06] <sloantothebone> So what difference does that make?
[16:07] <sloantothebone> will that make the game run better on my laptop?
[16:07] <zteam> sloantothebone, sort of it's a tool that can help you to configure wine for best performance and compatbiblity
[16:07] <SonikkuAmerica> sloantothebone: Well, the POL devs will tell you that there are a lot of diefferences.
[16:07] <SonikkuAmerica> -e
[16:07] <sloantothebone> Ok I'll try rebooting i guess
[16:08] <zteam> sloantothebone, it does make it easier to get things working under Wine
[16:08] <zteam> sloantothebone, and it can download patched versions of wine too
[16:09] <pjotter> what does?
[16:16] <tortib> can one of you please kill me and get it over with?  I'm under a lot of stress, you have all marginalized me to complete ruin, you have accomplished at hurting my feelings.
[16:16] <tortib> Just kill me and get it over with, I'm ready to die.
[16:17] <zteam> SonikkuAmerica, thanks but that didn't work, I guess I give up on this USB pendrive now
[16:17] <tortib> My brain literally hurts really bad because of all this stress you people have put me through.
[16:18] <SonikkuAmerica> !ops | tortib o4o
[16:18] <sloantothebone> Rebooting fixed the issue
[16:19] <fishcooker> when i login then accidentally got notice no disk space message .. where can i inspect the time that i get full disk space, which log file?
[16:19] <zteam> sloantothebone, good for you :-)
[16:21] <tortib> Please?
[16:21] <Guest29854> рш
[16:22] <Guest29854> hi
[16:22] <tortib> I bet since I want to die you're not going to kill me, that's how fucked up you all are.
[16:22] <MonkeyDust> tortib  wrong channel
[16:22] <tortib> You prefer to let me suffer and be miserable
[16:23] <tortib> MonkeyDust okay which channel can I go to to take a hit out on myself?
[16:23] <pjotter> sudo apt-get purge tortib
[16:23] <MonkeyDust> tortib  try ##defocus
[16:23] <tortib> They hate me but they don't hate me enough to kill me for some reason
[16:23] <MonkeyDust> tortib  stop
[16:26] <SonikkuAmerica> !ops | again, tortib (suicide)
[16:27] <SonikkuAmerica> (I hope I didn't call the ops too frequently here)
[16:27] <jpds> SonikkuAmerica: He's already gone
[16:27] <SonikkuAmerica> Oh, OK, never mind then.
[16:27] <SonikkuAmerica> Back to our regularly scheduled programming.

[16:29] <Kiev> отзовись кто нибудь
[16:29] <MonkeyDust> !ru
[16:29] <SonikkuAmerica> !uk | Kiev
[16:29] <SonikkuAmerica> Oh, not that... I meant Ukranian
[16:30] <Kiev> )
[16:30] <Dredd> Quick question.
[16:30] <SonikkuAmerica> !ask | Dredd, fire away - !
[16:30] <Dredd> Wasn't there a flavor of Ubuntu that was based on the Tor project?
[16:30] <Dredd> Whoops!
[16:30] <EriC^^> Dredd: tails
[16:30] <Dredd> Not Tails
[16:30] <Dredd> You could install it onto your HDD, as well
[16:30] <SonikkuAmerica> Dredd: not an official flavour that I know of...
[16:31] <Dredd> Hm...
[16:31] <EriC^^> blackbuntu?
[16:31] <MonkeyDust> Dredd  i guess you mean kali, but thats not supported here
[16:31] <EriC^^> i think that's a pen test distro though
[16:31] <Artemis3> Dredd, or just install tor
[16:32] <Dredd> It wasn't a penetration testing OS
[16:32] <Dredd> Just a security-focused Ubuntu flavor
[16:34] <MonkeyDust> Dredd  http://www.debianadmin.com/list-of-ubuntu-based-linux-distributions-and-live-cds.html
[16:35] <SonikkuAmerica> (Oh look who's here! Myrtti ! Just thought I'd point that out. Sorry for the !ot)
[16:37] <Myrtti> why is my precence something worth pointing out? I've been here more or less ten years...
[16:37] <SonikkuAmerica> (True, true. For me, long time no see though.)
[16:37] <OerHeks> Dredd, you have the answer already: tails.
[16:38] <Dredd> I just don't think that was it.
[16:44] <overdos3> sup
[16:45] <BluesKaj> lunch
[16:45] <overdos3> have you guys tried studio?

[16:52] <linocisco> hi all,
[16:52] <linocisco> what to install to convert DVD to mp4 or mkv?
[16:53] <linocisco> what to install to convert DVD to mp4 or mkv?
[16:54] <BluesKaj> linocisco, create an iso of the dvd then use vlc to play it, much simpler a fewer chances of conversion corruption
[16:54] <MonkeyDust> what's the command again to see the running daemons/services ?
[16:54] <BluesKaj> mkv us a wrapper for h264/hidef
[16:54] <BluesKaj> is
[16:55] <ioria> MonkeyDust, you mean  ps -A ?
[16:56] <baiter> ps -aux?
[16:56] <jpds> BluesKaj: initctl list
[16:56] <jpds> MonkeyDust: ↑
[16:57] <MonkeyDust> jpds  tnx
[17:01] <metaphysician> MonkeyDust: `initctl list' does not list all of 'em. Add output of `sudo service --status-all' to it.
[17:01] <jpds> metaphysician: Or just put sudo in front of initctl
[17:02] <metaphysician> jpds: no, it is not about sudo. Some services still use old sysv init.
[17:04] <metaphysician> jpds: eg. apache2 server in 14.04
[17:07] <ioria> right
[17:11] <niles> can i know the package install name for the DocTools of KF5 on wily?
[17:13] <MonkeyDust> sudo service --status-all is what I was looking for
[17:13] <ioria> telnet inetd too
[17:13] <sysop-rick> http://hastebin.com/otuwaxaquh.hs How can i most efficiently within a python script save terminal stdout from line  10 to a Variable and on line 14 send that output to a users email?
[17:13] <Bashing-om> niles: See if ' apt-cache search kf5 ' gives out the desired info .
[17:14] <niles> Bashing-om> i did that but nothing seems to be matching
[17:15] <niles> its vivid not wily
[17:15] <WereCatf> What is this "kf5" anyway? Is it an abbreviation of something?
[17:15] <OerHeks> KDE framework 5
[17:16] <WereCatf> Maybe you're looking for kdoctools5 then?
[17:16] <niles> ya
[17:16] <WereCatf> "apt-cache search doctools" would've listed that one
[17:17] <Bashing-om> niles: Is kf5 installed ? Perhaps then ' apt-cache show kf5 ' ?
[17:18] <niles> Bashing-om: done with kdoctools-dev
 that worked
[17:19] <Bashing-om> niles: K :)
[17:19] <niles> thanks:)
[17:19] <WereCatf> You're whalecum
[17:19] <blah-> cool
[17:20] <Netek> o ubuntu 14.04 I did adduser user  and then adduser user sudo
[17:20] <Netek> I can sudo a command but when I do su - and enter the user pass it tells me authentication failure...  any reason why? -_-
[17:20] <MonkeyDust> !root | Netek here's why
[17:20] <WereCatf> "su -" doesn't use sudo, they're two different mechanisms
[17:21] <WereCatf> I use "sudo -i" to get an interactive root shell
[17:21] <Alex11223> Why do I ger error (in dmesg) "ath9k_htc: Firmware - htc_9271.fw download failed" when trying to connect my usb wifi adapter to VM with Ubuntu or Kali? Even though I have this file in /lib/firmware and it should be up to date
[17:21] <Netek> ahh ok
[17:21] <Alex11223> http://pastebin.com/9LssRsAA
[17:22] <knikolla> Hi guys. I'm having an issue where if I install an application, it will not appear in the Unity dash until restarting. Any ideas?
[17:22] <WereCatf> Alex11223: how did you install the firmware? Did you install it with apt-get install firmware-atheros?
[17:24] <zoolook> knikolla: you're not alone. My workaround for now is alt-f2
[17:25] <knikolla> zoolook: has the bug been reported?
[17:26] <zoolook> knikolla: I don't know. I'm a cli guy so I don't really care that much, but yes, it's a bug and should be fixed. Go on an report it.
[17:26] <marlo_> zoolook, is that a Jean Michel Jarre inspired handle?
[17:26] <zoolook> marlo_: yup :D
[17:26] <marlo_> sawre him in concert in Houston once
[17:26] <marlo_> cool stuff
[17:28] <Alex11223> WereCatf: first I just copied it manually to /lib/firmware/. Also I tried apt-get install firmware-atheros on Kali, but it said that it is already the newest version. On Ubuntu apt-get does not find this package
[17:28] <zoolook> marlo_: I envy you :) That was his best years. I never saw any of his live shows in person
[17:28] <fizlik> why my website stats always show date 01.01.1970 on my ubuntu lampp server?
[17:28] <fizlik> someone know how to fix this?
[17:28] <marlo_> zoolook, outdoor, fireworks, lasers and all that.  pretty neat.
[17:30] <fizlik> why my website stats always show date 01.01.1970 on my ubuntu lampp server? someone know how to fix this?
[17:31] <Bashing-om> fizlik: Just a thought. what date does bios show ?
[17:31] <WereCatf> Alex11223: I don't quite frankly know. Maybe try installing the latest firmware from https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware ?
[17:31] <fizlik> aha
[17:31] <fizlik> :)
[17:31] <fizlik> thx
[17:32] <Bashing-om> fizlik: Time to change the CMOS battery ?
[17:33] <OerHeks> maybe CMOS battery, or a jumper that locks the bios
[17:33] <WereCatf> Alex11223: I just noticed that you're using the adapter in a USB 3.0 - port, right? Have you tried it in a USB 2.0 - port?
[17:36] <Alex11223> WereCatf: yes, I tried different USB ports
[17:36] <WereCatf> Alex11223: Strange
[17:36] <WereCatf> Alex11223: I would help, but I dunno what the issue is
[17:38] <Windows3> I'm having some trouble with crontab. I'm usin sudo crontab -e and I've got the line @reboot root /bin/myscript.sh, but it doesn't work.
[17:39] <fizlik> in bios is correct time and date but my website show 01.01.1970.
[17:41] <Windows3> I'm lookin at the syslog and I never see the cron normal exit line
[17:41] <Bashing-om> fizlik: OK, then is the system time correct .. from terminal ' date ' ? ( and are you dual booting Windows, where Windows controls the hardware Clock )
[17:41] <fizlik> no just ubuntu alone
[17:42] <EriC^^> Windows3: drop the root
[17:43] <fizlik> 'date'
[17:43] <fizlik> нед,  1. нов 2015.  18:43:10 CET
[17:44] <Bashing-om> fizlik: Is that time correct ?
[17:44] <fizlik> yeah
[17:45] <volkswagner> Greetings gang, I'm seeking advice on hardware upgrade path. I have an underpowered 14.04 server with (3) disk mdadm RAID 5, I'm building new server but want to harvest some disks from existing system. I also want the new server to be RAID 10 mdadm. Can I install 14.04 fresh with only (2) disks present and (2) missing for RAID 10? I have (2) 250GB drives for install, then I'd like to move (2) of the same from existing server once n
[17:45] <Bashing-om> fizlik: Then I do not know, must be a config issue within the application . I do not have it, so can not investigate .
[17:45] <TheRinger> in unity I change my wallpaper using a python script and os.system("gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri file:///home/user/apps/ImgurDesktop/Picture.jpg")
[17:45] <TheRinger> how would i change the 2nd monitor's desktop to a diff image at same time
[17:46] <Windows3> alright that worked the line got parsed but the script didn't work
[17:46] <fizlik> somewhere in lampp configs?
[17:46] <Windows3> the script works when I use sudo
[17:47] <Bashing-om> fizlik: Likely ... are time stamps in other log files correct ?
[17:47] <Windows3> and I'm using the sudo crontab but for some reason I don't think the script is executed as root
[17:47] <fizlik> yes
[17:47] <EriC^^> Windows3: upload the script
[17:48] <fizlik> when i upload something time and date are correct
[17:48] <fizlik> and in phpsysinfo
[17:51] <Windows3> paste.ubuntu.com/13071646/
[17:52] <WereCatf> Windows3: remove ";" from the lines
[17:52] <MonkeyDust> Windows3  change bin/bash to bin/sh
[17:53] <MonkeyDust> Windows3  or SHELL=/bin/sh to /bin/bash
[17:53] <raymondillo>  /part
[17:53] <EriC^^> Windows3: use @reboot /path/to/script > /tmp/script.log
[17:53] <EriC^^> and see what it gives you there
[17:54] <EriC^^> Windows3: use @reboot /path/to/script > /tmp/script.log 2>&1
[17:55] <Windows3> alright I'll do that
[18:01] <Windows3> sorry I'm lookin all over for my charger
[18:03] <Windows3> alright so it didn't work
[18:03] <Windows3> like I said I use sudo and execute the script everything is fine
[18:03] <EriC^^> cat /tmp/script.log and paste it
[18:03] <matt__> hello running ubuntu mate on rasp pi 2, how do I get to package manager to uninstal programs?
[18:04] <Windows3> There's nothing in the log
[18:04] <EriC^^> does it usually give output with sudo?
[18:05] <Windows3> It will put something in the log if the script runs too early
[18:05] <EriC^^> maybe try /etc/rc.local ?
[18:06] <matt__> does ubuntu mate rasp pi edition have a built in package manager, anyone know? trying uninstall programs free up some space
[18:07] <Windows3> I've tried rc.local and when I use sudo /etc/init.d/rc.local start, the script will work, but it never actually runs on shutdown/restart.
[18:07] <MonkeyDust> matt__  better ask in  #raspberrypi
[18:07] <larsenhasher> Hello
[18:07] <larsenhasher> How are you guys
[18:08] <EriC^^> Windows3: try adding a sleep before it in the script
[18:08] <matt__> thanks
[18:08] <EriC^^> and put it in the crontab
[18:08] <Windows3> alright
[18:08] <AyyHello> Hello, my OS broke and I am getting into a black screen each time I login, I am with a liveusb but I dont know how to recover the home dir, since with ecryptfs says that it cant find my directory. can anybody help with that?
[18:08] <marlo_> AyyHello, there are web pages instructing you how to mount your encryptfs with a root stick
[18:09] <marlo_> you have to know all your passcodes and keys and such as
[18:09] <marlo_> i've done it once, long ago
[18:09] <AyyHello> I remember my keys, but what is the mount key?
[18:09] <bekks> AyyHello: Do what did you do prior breaking it?
[18:09] <AyyHello> This part confuses me
[18:09] <WereCatf> Windows3: just out of curiosity, do you even have /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin? I'm not sure if specifying non-existent directories to PATH would break things, but I suppose it could. If you don't have those dirs then remove those from the line.
[18:10] <AyyHello> bekks: Something went wrong with Unity, now when I login the screen is black and my steam/skype notifications glitch. until they disappear
[18:10] <marlo_> AyyHello, i can't quite remember, but i think it's perhaps the key you use to boot the machine initially?  the same key that unocks the partition
[18:10] <marlo_> AyyHello, did you perhaps record your recovery key?  that can also be super helpful
[18:10] <AyyHello> marlo_: I dont use a key to boot my machine
[18:10] <marlo_> AyyHello, you don't type a boot password?
[18:10] <AyyHello> marlo_: I doubt that.
[18:10] <baiter> i'd like in cd /dev
[18:10] <baiter> i mean look in
[18:10] <AyyHello> I recently did a passwd command tho
[18:11] <baiter> when you use live cd, your harddrive appears in /dev
[18:11] <Windows3> I do have those dirs
[18:11] <marlo_> AyyHello, i mean, like when you boot up, it doesn't ask for a key even before it will boot the os?
[18:11] <AyyHello> marlo_: No.
[18:11] <marlo_> so you just encrypted your home folder?
[18:11] <AyyHello> marlo_: Yes.\
[18:11] <AyyHello> marlo_: Ubuntu asked me if I want to do that
[18:11] <marlo_> can you boot then with a stick and get in to root mode? or at least access the drive?
[18:12] <AyyHello> I am already booted
[18:12] <marlo_> ah
[18:12] <AyyHello> I am actually talking from here :)
[18:12] <AyyHello> And I can access the drive
[18:12] <marlo_> well, i'm confused then, what's not working exactly?
[18:12] <AyyHello> marlo_: I just want to decrypt the home folder, I will reinstall Ubuntu
[18:13] <AyyHello> or just leave it there
[18:13] <giupi79> Chiedevo se ubuntu è esente fa virus
[18:13] <MonkeyDust> !it
[18:13] <marlo_> if you're booted, and you're chatting in IRC from "here" (where ever here is) why can't you see your home folder ?
[18:13] <baiter> i think he said 1. he used live cd. 2. he went to his home folder in /dev/hd#/home/ or something. 3. he can't access his user folder because it's encrypted
[18:13] <AyyHello> marlo_: I am booted from the LiveUSB
[18:13] <AyyHello> :P
[18:13] <marlo_> or, you're saying your OS is broke, and you booted from live... got it!
[18:13] <AyyHello> Yep!
[18:13] <marlo_> there's a way to mount your home folder
[18:14] <marlo_> let me see if i can find some notes
[18:14] <marlo_> i've done it like twice
[18:14] <AyyHello> I just entered the folder and it mounted it.
[18:14] <AyyHello> I remember me going into the process which I wrote my directory and it asked me for mount passphrase, which I got no idea what is it.
[18:14] <baiter> we don't know your passwords
[18:14] <marlo_> there's a way around that
[18:15] <gh16ito> So I tried using "pip install -U pip" on Ubuntu, and it's giving me "Not uninstalling pip at /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages, owned by OS"
[18:15] <Windows3> well this is strange this time the script worked, but my wifi was already working. The script is to fix my wireless adapter which usually isn't working when I startup. Maybe its hardware problems.
[18:15] <AyyHello> marlo_: I got no choice to get into recovery mode, since only way to chat here is from liveusb
[18:15] <AyyHello>  
[18:15] <marlo_> AyyHello, did you try anything like this; http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-mounting-your-encrypted-home-from-livecd/
[18:15] <bekks> AyyHello: It is the passphrase you were told to remember when creating your encrypted home.
[18:15] <AyyHello> .biz domain.. I don't really trust those.
[18:15] <Windows3> and I added sleep
[18:16] <bekks> AyyHello: the top level domain is irrelevant in terms of security.
[18:16] <marlo_> eh, i remember doing something like this... like i said it's been a while
[18:16] <AyyHello> bekks: well I am in a live environment anyways
[18:16] <schi33> anyone have this problem with ubuntu 14.04 and ruby-switch? https://gist.github.com/anonymous/a7402c11a020796c660c
[18:17] <marlo_> AyyHello, i would read through it, and give it a shot, if i remember correctly, it was something convoluted like this to get my home folder mounted
[18:17] <volkswagner> another option I was considering vs. trying to install on a RAID 10 with (2) missing members, was to use the desired (2) 250GB drives and two larger drives (1)500GB & (1) 1000GB but match partition sizes so I can then remove the larger drives and replace with 250GB drives once they are available. Does anyone know which method would offer good results?
[18:17] <AyyHello> It doesnt let me fdisk or anything
[18:17] <AyyHello> How to get to root?
[18:17] <baiter> sudo -s
[18:17] <marlo_> AyyHello, sudo su
[18:17] <AyyHello> Done
[18:18] <Windows3> I am using some 2010 macbook pro that absolutely refuses OS X, wont even boot an installation disc, so I put ubuntu on it. It's alot nicer
[18:18] <ioria> AyyHello, full disk encryption or just the home folder ?
[18:18] <AyyHello> Should I root at grub partition or ubuntu?
[18:18] <AyyHello> just home
[18:19] <ioria> AyyHello, do you remember your passphrase ?
[18:19] <bekks> AyyHello: What does "should i root" mean?
[18:19] <AyyHello> ioria: I remember the user's password
[18:19] <ioria> no
[18:19] <AyyHello> bekks: Should I get to root command? (Already done)
[18:19] <volkswagner> Windows3, how does the trackpad behave. I always found it unpredictable behavior, but It's been a few years and not a a MacBook Pro, but a white macBook
[18:19] <ioria> AyyHello, unless is the same
[18:19] <AyyHello> ioria: I choose the password?
[18:19] <bekks> AyyHello: What is "the root command"?
[18:19] <Windows3> thanks for the help
[18:20] <AyyHello> bekks: fdisk -l and mount
[18:20] <bekks> AyyHello: Thats no "root command" at all.
[18:20] <lrs> For my bluetooth earbuds to work, i need to write sudo -i pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover
[18:20] <ioria> AyyHello, are you from live now ?
[18:20] <lrs> Is there anyway so it does this when i plugin the bluetooth decice (or when i startup)?
[18:20] <AyyHello> Yes
[18:21] <AyyHello> Also I am starting to get confused
[18:21] <ioria> AyyHello, exit from root and try sudo ecryptfs-recover-private
[18:21] <Windows3> oh the trackpad is just awful it'll start opening programs when I'm tryin to scroll, it tries to switch between windows, I mean quite a bit of weird stuff, and it won't let me pinch.
[18:21] <Windows3> its definitely unpredictable behavior
[18:21] <AyyHello> done, happening
[18:22] <AyyHello> No encrypted directories found
[18:23] <ioria> AyyHello, but is mounted the partition ?
[18:23] <AyyHello> ioria: If I tell "I don't know"? :3
[18:23] <AyyHello> or I am not sure
[18:24] <Cantthinkm> whats up
[18:24] <ioria> AyyHello, first you need to mount the / or the partition that contains home
[18:24] <ioria> AyyHello, run sudo parted -l
[18:24] <AyyHello> Ok
[18:24] <marlo_> AyyHello, in your liveusb, can you click on the folders and show the 'drive' that has your home folder, and click on it and mount it?
[18:25] <AyyHello> http://termbin.com/gpht Output
[18:25] <AyyHello> marlo_: The home folder is not amond the root etc. folders
[18:25] <marlo_> i mean to just get the hard drive mounted
[18:26] <AyyHello> *among
[18:26] <marlo_> so it's discoverable by recover-private
[18:26] <ioria> AyyHello, sudo mount /dev/sda5  /mnt

[18:41] <bb> I downloaded qBittorrent off of the software center...I was wondering where the application saves to?
[18:42] <bb> i couldn't find it in usr/bin
[18:43] <ioria> AyyHello, if you encrypt your home folder you should have an hidden .ecrypt  directory in home ....
[18:43] <AyyHello> ioria: So all this time I didn't have my home encrypted?
[18:43] <AyyHello> *faceplant*
[18:44] <ioria> AyyHello, wait, cd /mnt/home/<user>
[18:44] <AyyHello> Yes
[18:44] <AyyHello> ubuntu@ubuntu:/mnt/home/real----$
[18:44] <ioria> AyyHello, what you see ?
[18:44] <AyyHello> I just see the thing I sent here
[18:44] <AyyHello> ubuntu@ubuntu:/mnt/home/real----$
[18:45] <AyyHello> ---- = private letters which I dunno if I am supposed to post them or not
[18:45] <the_eye_> has anyone the rockmite 51 qrp 40m ?
[18:46] <ioria> AyyHello, so the files are encrypted ?
[18:46] <AyyHello> How am I supposed to know?
[18:46] <AyyHello> ubuntu@ubuntu:/mnt/home/real----$  is the only thing that happens
[18:47] <ioria> AyyHello, ok, exit with cd /   and paste ls /mnt/home/<user>
[18:47] <AyyHello> ?
[18:47] <AyyHello> I write cf /?
[18:47] <AyyHello> oh yeah
[18:48] <bb> what dir do applications downloaded from the Ubuntu Software Center save to?
[18:48] <AyyHello> What the actual -? My files are there?
[18:48] <ioria> AyyHello, exit from /mnt and paste ls -al /mnt/home/<user>
[18:48] <AyyHello> ioria: I can see my files
[18:48] <xNear> Hello, are FGLRX drivers updated?
[18:48] <ioria> AyyHello, clear or encrypted ?
[18:48] <soif> bb they are installed system-wide
[18:49] <AyyHello> ioria: I dont know how to determine that, but I can see my folders! :)
[18:49] <soif> which means it depends on the package, usually in something like /usr/share/
[18:49] <AyyHello> It doesnt seem to be encrypted
[18:49] <ioria> AyyHello, if you can open them and read them they are not encrypted
[18:49] <Guest18458> what kind of software simmilar to virtualbox have ability to fully virtualize avalible graphic card, so if i have a card with opengl 4.0 support it will alsio be able in virtual machine?
[18:49] <AyyHello> ioria:
[18:49] <AyyHello> ioria: Now what to do?
[18:49] <bb> soif: O ok thank you
[18:50] <ioria> AyyHello, you can open and read your files ?
[18:50] <AyyHello> I didnt try to open yet, but I can see the files at folders
[18:50] <AyyHello> let me check
[18:50] <soif> Guest18458 Check this https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/2z0evz/gpu_passthrough_or_how_to_play_any_game_at_near/
[18:50] <k1l> Guest18458: for playing games? :)  did you look at wine?
[18:50] <AyyHello> How to unmount?
[18:51] <ioria> AyyHello, so they are readable ?
[18:51] <k1l> AyyHello: sudo umount /dev/<mounteddevice>
[18:51] <AyyHello> Ok
[18:52] <AyyHello> ioria:
[18:52] <AyyHello> I got a problem
[18:52] <AyyHello> When I open the folder, unmounted
[18:52] <AyyHello> my files at mnt do NOT appear
[18:52] <ioria> AyyHello, you umounted /mnt
[18:52] <AyyHello> ioria: Because I couldnt open file explorer
[18:52] <AyyHello> to that partition
[18:52] <trimeta> The manual partition manager on the Ubuntu Server disk refuses to activate encrypted (dm-crypt) partitions from an SSD, even though it has no problem doing so from an HDD. Why?
[18:53] <ioria> AyyHello, we are using the terminal.... did you umount ?
[18:53] <AyyHello> Yes
[18:53] <AyyHello> ioria: Some miscommunication is going on here.
[18:54] <AyyHello> ioria: Now what?
[18:55] <xNear> soif: GPU Passthrough is awesome, I will try it when I have new computer
[18:55] <ioria> AyyHello, i asked you if your files were readable
[18:55] <xNear> I wanna build computer for GPU-Passthrough
[18:55] <xNear> Are AMD GPU's working with it?
[18:55] <AyyHello> ioria: I couldnt open them because I was in a terminal
[18:55] <AyyHello> ioria: I could read their names though
[18:55] <ioria> AyyHello, you can open files in terminal
[18:56] <AyyHello> ioria: Let's mount again and show me how :D
[18:56] <AyyHello> pls
[18:56] <ioria> AyyHello, sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt
[18:56] <soif> xNear AMD is mentioned so it should work but with proprietary drivers probably
[18:56] <AyyHello> Done, but the hard drive did not disappear from the desktop as usual
[18:57] <ioria> AyyHello, ls -al /mnt/home/<user>
[18:57] <AyyHello> OMG
[18:57] <AyyHello> what did appear?
[18:58] <AyyHello> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13072836/ This is some of the output
[18:58] <AyyHello> What is the drw-wrd thing?
[18:58] <ioria> AyyHello, that's not an home folder
[18:59] <AyyHello> ioria: Those are my files though?
[18:59] <ioria> AyyHello, you know :)
[18:59] <trimeta> Hold on...apparently after entering the "Configure encrypted volumes" area, I needed to choose "Finish," not "Activate existing encrypted volumes" or "Create new encrypted volume"
[18:59] <AyyHello> Oh
[18:59] <AyyHello> ioria: What is that? I am 100% confused
[19:00] <ioria> AyyHello, that is not an home folder
[19:00] <hdqn> hello everyone
[19:00] <AyyHello> ls -al /mnt/home/real---- was the command i ran
[19:01] <AyyHello> Dunno, but shouldnt 96 GB Volume disappear from that unity bar on the left if its mounted?
[19:01] <ioria> AyyHello, well, it's not real-----
[19:01] <ioria> AyyHello, ls /mnt/home and looks for others directories
[19:01] <AyyHello> done
[19:02] <AyyHello> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13072981/
[19:02] <AyyHello> Right here
[19:03] <AyyHello> I gotta go soon..
[19:04] <AyyHello> let's continue quickly :o
[19:05] <ioria> AyyHello, have you found your user ?
[19:05] <AyyHello> ioria: Yes, its real----
[19:05] <AyyHello> .-.
[19:05]  * AyyHello slaps akaWolf around a bit with a large fishbot
[19:05] <ioria> AyyHello, there is nothing in there
[19:06] <AyyHello> GTG
[19:06] <AyyHello> bai see ya tomorrow
[19:10] <michael__> sup
[19:10] <xNear> soif: Oh alright. When I build new PC it will be superious. I will be really "you only live online" :D
[19:11] <soif> xNear Nice! But don't forget to support developers who make native games on linux :)
[19:13] <xNear> soif: Of course. I wait for AMD drivers (FGLRX) to finally move into Ubuntu.
[19:13] <xNear> I have Ubuntu 15.10 with updated packages but I can't play games on it due to missing FGLRX. So I stay still on Windows (im writing from it).
[19:14] <xNear> But... I will be new Linux user if everything will be as expected
[19:14] <SlaveOfJesus> h
[19:14] <SlaveOfJesus> hi
[19:14] <xNear> AVE SATAN
[19:14] <xNear> xD
[19:14] <soif> You can use the proprietary drivers for now if you want
[19:14] <xNear> whaa?
[19:14] <xNear> Package was broken yesterday.
[19:15] <soif> classic... unfortunately
[19:15] <xNear> Somebody told me that fix for FGLRX is in upstream. Someone updated the package?
[19:15] <xNear> If not, I will wait ;)
[19:16] <soif> Depends if you are on 15.10 or not
[19:16] <xNear> I am on 15.10
[19:18] <soif> I don't really follow what's on AMD side but there should be mesa 11 with opengl 4.1 compatibility
[19:19] <soif> The best would be to wait for some benchmarks on Phoronix
[19:20] <xNear> actually i have hybrid intel+amd gpu and i cant play games on linux because of speed of intel
[19:20] <Bashing-om> xNear: soif :: The bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1493888 . I do not see where the fix has made it down .
[19:21] <xNear> I tried to play game in virtualbox and it was lagging. Ya virtualbox is not good idea but game is really not "hard" for hardware.
[19:21] <xNear> And probably with AMD it will act better
[19:22] <xNear> lol amd gpu is 10 times faster than intel
[19:23] <xNear> on windows
[19:23] <baiter> uh
[19:23] <baiter> i use amd graphics
[19:23] <baiter> and i use flgrx on ubuntu
[19:23] <xNear> waat?
[19:23] <baiter> i don't know what you are talking about
[19:23] <xNear> but i have muxed gpu
[19:23] <xNear> fglrx is broken for muxed gpus
[19:23] <baiter> o
[19:23] <xNear> muxed - hybrid, two gpus int laptop
[19:23] <xNear> in*
[19:23] <baiter> never tried that
[19:23] <daftykins> keep it to the support please folks, you can chat over in #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:24] <xNear> Bashing-om: what you mean? its finally repaired?
[19:25] <xNear> What means fix released?
[19:25] <daftykins> that it's already in the package updates
[19:26] <xNear> so i understand i can try it
[19:26] <xNear> just install the package, yep?
[19:26] <xNear> ouch, so i go reboot to linux, brb
[19:26] <daftykins> you might have to use the 'proposed' package, it might not be out yet
[19:27] <daftykins> oh well too late (:
[19:27] <daftykins> !info flrgx-updates
[19:27] <daftykins> oops
[19:27] <daftykins> !info fglrx-updates
[19:27] <daftykins> ah no that looks like the one
[19:28] <lrs> I have a problem. Ubuntu freezes randomly and i have to close the lid top my laptop and go into sleep mode and then log in again
[19:28] <lrs> I think it ha something to do with flash and/or nvidia
[19:29] <lrs> pepperflash, flash... etc.
[19:29] <lrs> Anyone have any idea?
[19:29] <daftykins> so you're watching a video at the time?
[19:29] <daftykins> well, uninstall pepperflash to test.
[19:30] <lrs> Yeah usually it is when i have chromium on
[19:30] <lrs> Or watch youtube
[19:30] <ubuntu829> When I try and boot from a flash drive. I get an error and the thing stops... not sure why?... i'm on an amd 8gb ram
[19:30] <lrs> Sometimes it comes in game, but then  i usually hace some web browsing thing in the background
[19:30] <baiter> ... do you even use flash on youtube? most people use html5 now don't they?
[19:30] <daftykins> well you don't need pepperflash for youtube, lrs - HTML5 playback works
[19:30] <neldogz> Is there any prep work that needs to be performed to a raid array (that is not used for the bootable OS, only data) before re-installing Linux?
[19:31] <daftykins> neldogz: not really, but i'd disconnect all the member disks during OS reinstall.
[19:31] <lrs> daftykins, Pepper is not installed :S
[19:31] <baiter> chrome is a ram hog though, for sure
[19:31] <baiter> that can cause those freezes
[19:31] <neldogz> daftykins, thank you, I will do exactly that!
[19:31] <rbtying> q
[19:31] <lrs> You think so?
[19:31] <baiter> try firefox?
[19:40] <xNear> Bashing-om: Still I have fglrx freeze on bootup.
[19:40] <xNear> I ran "sudo aptitude install fglrx"
[19:40] <daftykins> xNear: you were supposed to install fglrx-updates
[19:41] <SlaveOfJesus> I have a question. I have ubuntu 12.04 LTS and i want to install LATEST v44 chromium. How to do that please?
[19:41] <xNear> ah, again reboot, sorry xD
[19:41] <daftykins> xNear: sudo apt-get purge fglrx* && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get install fglrx-updates
[19:41] <xNear> i purged actually fglrx but i must perform clean
[19:41] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: upgrade.
[19:41] <xNear> i dont like apt-get, i learned aptitude
[19:41] <xNear> only at apt-tet one thing i know is
[19:42] <xNear> "apt-get install aptitude" xD
[19:42] <daftykins> xNear: that was a very foolish move, apt-get is standard - aptitude is not.
[19:42] <daftykins> learning what comes 'in the box' is best
[19:42] <xNear> ya i know
[19:42] <xNear> i will try to learn it ;)
[19:43] <daftykins> i've been playing with 'apt' instead of 'apt-get' even, it gives a nice progress bar :)
[19:49] <OnkelTem> Hi
[19:49] <OnkelTem> I can't watch videos on a website using DRM
[19:49] <daftykins> like which
[19:49] <OnkelTem> they recommened to install hal from ppa:mjblenner/ppa-hal
[19:49] <daftykins> you have to use chrome from google to use any web DRM related content, typically.
[19:49] <daftykins> that depends on your ubuntu version
[19:49] <OnkelTem> daftykins: yeah, I'm using google chrome, but anyway :(
[19:49] <technotrumpet> Can anyone tell me how to install ubuntu on a old computer with Windows XP?
[19:49] <OnkelTem> 14.04
[19:50] <OnkelTem> daftykins: http://www.amediateka.ru/serial/esh-protiv-zloveschih-mertvetsov-8ef3bfca-7839-4fa1-a2a1-4e844f924144/1/1
[19:50] <daftykins> OnkelTem: yeah probably then, but PPAs are unsupported so do so at your own risk
[19:50] <dami0> anyone here running steam through wine on ubuntu? i get "steamwebhelper.exe has encountered a fatal error" and i can't see any text
[19:50] <bekks> technotrumpet: the same way as you would do on a new computer :)
[19:50] <daftykins> technotrumpet: same way it's always installed, either burn a DVD of the ISO or put it on a bootable USB flash drive.
[19:50] <technotrumpet> How is that bekks?
[19:50] <daftykins> dami0: that's silly, just install steam natively - it doesn't need wine.
[19:50] <dami0> the game i want to play does
[19:50] <daftykins> dami0: sudo apt-get install steam
[19:50] <Bashing-om> technotrumpet: Older hardware generally recommended (L)ubuntu .
[19:51] <daftykins> dami0: #ubuntu-steam
[19:51] <bekks> technotrumpet: boot the install medoum, proceed with the installation.
[19:51] <dami0> daftykins: ah, thanks
[19:51] <technotrumpet> Really> Lbuntu is better?
[19:51] <daftykins> technotrumpet: you might want to share the system specifications
[19:52] <technotrumpet> Intel Pentium (gen 2 i believe) daftykins
[19:52] <daftykins> no such thing as a second generation pentium i'm afraid
[19:52] <baiter> he means pentium 2?
[19:52] <technotrumpet> yes baiter. Thanks!
[19:53] <daftykins> heh, that'd be a funny way to say it if so - and if correct then that thing is too old for XP, let alone ubuntu
[19:53] <Bashing-om> technotrumpet: "Better" is in the eye of the beholder, but ubuntu takes some resources, lubuntu is lighter .
[19:53] <daftykins> i'd honestly say there's no point even trying.
[19:53] <baiter> my guess is he's wrong
[19:53] <baiter> and he should try lbuntu
[19:53] <daftykins> technotrumpet: can you check?
[19:53] <technotrumpet> check what daftykins?
[19:53] <OnkelTem> daftykins: I can't install anything from that ppa
[19:53] <daftykins> what the spec really is
[19:53] <baiter> your system specs
[19:54] <daftykins> technotrumpet: boot XP and press windows key + pause/break
[19:54] <OnkelTem> Am I the only one needing to play DRMshit?
[19:54] <daftykins> that'll open the system properties with the basic spec
[19:54] <baiter> go to programs -> accessories -> systems -> system info
[19:54] <lrs> 66 mhz pentium 486
[19:54] <daftykins> !language | OnkelTem that's not acceptable here.
[19:54] <OnkelTem> How you folks overcome this?
[19:54] <daftykins> OnkelTem: like i said PPAs are not supported here
[19:54] <daftykins> !ppa
[19:55] <OnkelTem> daftykins: I don't care about how I do this, I need to play videos
[19:55] <marco__> ciao
[19:55] <marco__> avrei un problema
[19:55] <OnkelTem> daftykins: I hoped Ubuntu 14.04 can help me with that
[19:55] <daftykins> OnkelTem: care about what? you're not making much sense in English.
[19:55] <OnkelTem> But atm I found no solution
[19:55] <k1l> !it | marco__
[19:55] <marco__> aaaaaaaa
[19:55] <marco__> sorry XD
[19:56] <OnkelTem> daftykins: I don't care whether is something supported or not. I asked - how to play video
[19:56] <daftykins> OnkelTem: ok, good luck getting help with that bad attitude.
[19:56] <OnkelTem> daftykins: which attitude you mean? I provided a link, right? have you visited it?
[19:57] <daftykins> i don't need to visit it.
[19:57] <OnkelTem> then how can you help?
[19:57] <daftykins> i already told you i'm not helping because i don't like your attitude :)
[19:57] <xNear> ubuntu freezes after installing fglrx-updates
[19:58] <daftykins> you already shared a PPA name, it has instructions on how to add it to your system - so follow those then install hal
[19:58] <daftykins> job done.
[19:58] <OnkelTem> daftykins: don't conver the lack of your knowledge with reasons dude
[19:58] <daftykins> but you will get no assistance from me.
[19:58] <daftykins> yes that's very amusing reverse psychology, however i am more than capable - you're ignored now.
[19:59] <k1l> OnkelTem: daftykins just stop telling the other one what to do, this is pointless. OnkelTem outside .ru you cant use that page anyway. so maybe the guys in #ubuntu-ru know more about that side and how to make it work
[20:00] <daftykins> what? you know channel policy on PPAs - and you saw i stopped already.
[20:00] <daftykins> no use closing the barn gate after the horse has bolted :)
[20:01] <OnkelTem> daftykins: actually, I can't install it. That's the reason I asked.
[20:01] <OnkelTem> W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/mjblenner/ppa-hal/dists//ubuntu/trusty/binary-amd64/Packages  404  Not Found
[20:02] <OnkelTem> at apt-get update
[20:02] <OnkelTem> so I thought there should another way
[20:02] <OnkelTem> be+
[20:02] <k1l> OnkelTem: there is no "ppa-hal" anymore from that user
[20:03] <k1l> OnkelTem: and i told you to stop it with daftykins so dont highlight him anymore. that is rude from your side, too
[20:03] <OnkelTem> that's strange. Looks like an integrity problem of launchpad.net, no?
[20:03] <k1l> OnkelTem: no. what about that user just removed that ppa on his own?
[20:03] <OnkelTem> Oh, I didn't say anything rude since when you told it to me
[20:03] <SlaveOfJesus> I have a question. I have ubuntu 12.04 LTS and i want to install LATEST v44 chromium. How to do that please?
[20:03] <SlaveOfJesus> asking 2nd time
[20:04] <OnkelTem> k1l: oh, ok. I don't know launchpad rules.
[20:04] <SlaveOfJesus> I got to say linux support is bad :/
[20:04] <k1l> OnkelTem: and now i quote from that user launchpad page: zombie hal PPA description: Trying to keep HAL alive for a little longer, mostly because I watch flash videos that use DRM, and flash needs HAL for that to work.
[20:04] <serpo> hmm lol
[20:04] <Bashing-om> !latest | SlaveOfJesus
[20:04] <k1l> OnkelTem: i really suggest you change that attitude asap. your aggressive tone is getting you just in more trouble
[20:04] <OnkelTem> k1l: yeah that I read
[20:05] <SlaveOfJesus> When i say "linux suppoort is bad" everyone wakes up. But when i ask question everyone ignoring me

[20:07] <Albicbr> ciao a tutti
[20:07] <SlaveOfJesus> Bashing-om: cant do that
[20:07] <SlaveOfJesus> Bashing-om: i have problems with ubuntu 14
[20:07] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: like what?
[20:07] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins: dont get me started please
[20:07] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins: im tired
[20:07] <xNear> Bashing-om: What idea for my problem you have?
[20:07] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: no i'm serious, this is a help channel - so what's wrong with 14.04?
[20:08] <Umeaboy> Hi!
[20:08] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins: kernel problems.
[20:08] <daftykins> ok you're not being very specific there
[20:08] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins: my pc works with 3.2 kernel
[20:08] <k1l> SlaveOfJesus: actually i wonder why the chromium on 12.04 is not updated
[20:08] <daftykins> what is it, legacy AMD card?
[20:08] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins: cause ive spent a lot of time already asking for help before
[20:08] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins: ist not about amd
[20:08] <xNear> CAN ANYBODY HELP ME WITH AMD DRIVERS
[20:08] <xNear> thanks
[20:08] <OnkelTem> daftykins, k1l that said, sorry. I didn't mean to offend anybody. I just called DRM with a word, I think is most suitable for it... and I didn't expect somebody has another opinion :) really!
[20:09] <k1l> is chromium 37 a LTS version? because 14.04 and others have all 45
[20:09] <daftykins> xNear: if fglrx-updates didn't work, no - you'll have to wait
[20:09] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: so like i said, either upgrade release or find a PPA for chromium for yours - which is probably unlikely, so i don't think you have any option.
[20:09] <Umeaboy> On 15.10 on x86_64 arch it doesn't seem normal to me that my computer forgets or looses recollection of my connection that I used yesterday even thou I didn't touch any Connection settings.
[20:09] <compdoc> xNear, what model is the vid card?
[20:09] <SlaveOfJesus> k1l: yes
[20:09] <xNear> 03:00.0 Display controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Sun LE [Radeon HD 8550M / R5 M230]
[20:09] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins: thats bad
[20:09] <Umeaboy> I checked that it should be able to connect to the connection when it's available and the box is checked.
[20:09] <xNear> And
[20:09] <xNear> 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT DRAM Controller (rev 0b)
[20:09] <SlaveOfJesus> man why linux is so complicated
[20:10] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: price of freedom, i guess
[20:10] <xNear> Watch Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core end to understand price of freedom.
[20:10] <xNear> xD
[20:10] <Umeaboy> Also....... At boot up after a long while I get asked to type my Wifi-password again even thou it's supposed to connect with the already written password.
[20:10] <xNear> After all there is song from this game named "Price of freedom" xD
[20:10] <Bashing-om> xNear: O was "concerned" would not be available . Let's see what is. Pastebin ' sudo lshw -C display ; dpkg -l | grep fglrx ; sudo ubuntu-drivers devices ; sudo ubuntu-drivers list ' . We see what can be done.
[20:10] <Umeaboy> Any easy fix to that?
[20:10] <k1l> SlaveOfJesus: actually i would file a bug and ask why 12.04 is not updated
[20:10] <SlaveOfJesus> when you have problem with linux its a nightmare to solve it
[20:11] <regedit> yeah just appreciate the fact you didn't have to die like those who did pay that price of freedom
[20:11] <daftykins> xNear: be helpful or don't speak, please
[20:11] <xNear> okk
[20:11]  * regedit crawls back into the whole whence he emerged, giggling
[20:12] <SlaveOfJesus> first, my pc crashes with newer linux kernel, second no sound in newer ubuntu releases, third cant install new chromium, i install ubuntu 12 everything is outdated :/
[20:12] <OnkelTem> So why was Hal removed from Ubuntu?
[20:12] <OnkelTem> without providing any alternative, as I understand
[20:12] <Umeaboy> And also........ I know that you can make a custom grub.cfg and load that instead of the standard one, but I'd prefer that my module problem with nouveau gets fixed with a patch. I have a working solution to be able to boot the kernel to login window without getting a freeze.
[20:13] <xNear> ok
[20:13] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: those issues on newer versions will likely need some effort, but i doubt they're impossible to solve.
[20:13] <xNear> Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/iAbifMez
[20:13] <xNear> actually i do not have fglrx installed, because its freezes
[20:13] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: but as you've said you don't want to discuss them, i think you're out of luck on this one.
[20:13] <Umeaboy> OnkelTem: Systemd handles HAL's responsibibility now I guess.
[20:13] <Bashing-om> xNear: Look'n .
[20:13] <bekks> OnkelTem: It was removed in favor of udev.
[20:13] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins: no i dont want
[20:13] <k1l> OnkelTem: its gone since 10.04.
[20:13] <bekks> OnkelTem: Roughly about 5 years ago.
[20:13] <OnkelTem> wow
[20:14] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: then i think we're done here.
[20:14] <SlaveOfJesus> i had to install chrome
[20:14] <Umeaboy> Sorry bout that.
[20:14] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins: but i have to say on this channel my dislike
[20:14] <SlaveOfJesus> i need to let the steam out
[20:15] <OnkelTem> Does this mean that DRM content can't be played in Ubuntu anymore (in which I don't believe of course) OR that specific site makers go in a wrong way of implementing DRM on their website?
[20:15] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: no, we don't need that. this channel is of volunteers, we don't deserve to be slated for the issues of the OS.
[20:15] <daftykins> maybe go to a padded room for the evening
[20:15] <SlaveOfJesus> daftykins:  can i add like newer ubuntu ppa for chromium to my ubuntu 12?
[20:15] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: well i did suggest that...
[20:15] <k1l> SlaveOfJesus: file a bug and ask the maintainer why he doesnt ship updates to 12.04 anymore. i didnt find a reason so far. ranting, flaming and other things will not help anyone in here
[20:16] <SlaveOfJesus> im not ranting flaming
[20:16] <SlaveOfJesus> im telling my opinion
[20:16] <OnkelTem> Actually, this is not the first website I met where I can't play anything. Even some official Russian TV websites doesn't work for the same reason. This looks weird
[20:16] <SlaveOfJesus> im not satisfied with linux
[20:16] <hggdh> SlaveOfJesus: ok. Move to something else.
[20:16] <SlaveOfJesus> hggdh: no
[20:16] <k1l> SlaveOfJesus: so either file a bug and ask the maintainer or search for a ppa or use chrome.
[20:17] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: so look for a PPA or switch browser
[20:17] <SlaveOfJesus> isnt that your job?
[20:17] <xNear> SlaveOfJesus: Install windows if linux is really hard for you. Linux is not for everybody, by the way. I'm happy that it's not very popular.
[20:18] <EriC^^> SlaveOfJesus: everybody here are volunteers
[20:18] <OnkelTem> lol
[20:18] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: no, it is not - like i said we're volunteers and PPAs aren't supported, so it is up to you to find one.
[20:18] <soif> It's nobody's job to to anything actually, we're all volunteers
[20:18] <k1l> SlaveOfJesus: if it was my job you would have to pay me :) but you could ask nicely. but if you demand i will wait till you pay me ;p
[20:18] <SlaveOfJesus> so why do you do this?
[20:18] <xNear> Hobby? Passion? Interest?
[20:18] <hggdh> ?
[20:18] <xNear> Stupid question...
[20:18] <SlaveOfJesus> are you doing this for me?
[20:19] <SlaveOfJesus> for me and others/
[20:19] <xNear> For /everybody/ who need help.
[20:19] <xNear> YES
[20:19] <SlaveOfJesus> great
[20:19] <SlaveOfJesus> then fix it
[20:19] <daftykins> SlaveOfJesus: i honestly suggest you leave now, this attitude is not welcome.
[20:19] <SlaveOfJesus> :)
[20:19] <xNear> ... lol
[20:19] <bekks> SlaveOfJesus: Fix your attitude before.
[20:19] <SlaveOfJesus> My attitude is okay
[20:19] <soif> is it?
[20:19] <OerHeks> guys, don't feed the troll
[20:19] <Bashing-om> xNear: Looks out of my experience range, the FGLRX-updates driver is installed, however, the open source (radeon) driver is loaded . Do not know what to say here .
[20:19] <k1l> !guidelines | SlaveOfJesus
[20:19] <daftykins> be nice if an op actually did something today.
[20:20] <xNear> hah
[20:20] <SlaveOfJesus> my attitude is okay even with all the fails
[20:20] <EriC^^> :D
[20:20] <xNear> so how to resolve that?
[20:20] <hggdh> stop rrsponding
[20:20] <xNear> uninstall radeon drivers via driver gui tool?
[20:20] <xNear> Bashing-om
[20:21] <daftykins> xNear: what's this, you installed it but it's not being used?
[20:21] <xNear> i dont know
[20:21] <daftykins> xNear: pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log && lspci | pastebinit
[20:21] <daftykins> prepare those two for me and i'll have a look.
[20:21] <SlaveOfJesus> So you dont want to hear anything negative? How will you then make it better?
[20:21] <xNear> really i tried to even switch to amd via vga switcheoor
[20:21] <xNear> and it was not posibble
[20:22] <xNear> i dont know if amd gpu is really working
[20:22] <daftykins> xNear: run the commands please.
[20:22] <xNear> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13074649/
[20:22] <xNear> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13074650/
[20:22] <k1l> SlaveOfJesus: so i muted you now because you kept going and going for discussion in here which is unfair for users who actually want to use this channel for support.
[20:23] <k1l> SlaveOfJesus: if you want to find a ppa for chromium see this list: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=chromium-browser
[20:23] <Umeaboy> Isnät it odd that the installation of Ubuntu doesn't really download and install all available updates with a fresh installation? You check the box to install updates during the installation and it seems to install SOME, but as soon as you enter Unity desktop you're told to install even more updates.
[20:23] <Umeaboy> Why's that?
[20:23] <k1l> SlaveOfJesus: come to #ubuntu-ops if you want the mute to be removed.
[20:23] <Umeaboy> Seems unnecesssary and confusing.
[20:23] <bekks> Umeaboy: It actually ask you to download upates and does it when saying yes :)
[20:23] <volkswagner> well, I decided to use the two additional larger drives, hopefully the drive changout will go well when I'm done
[20:24] <bekks> Umeaboy: It installs updates for all core packages.
[20:24] <Umeaboy> bekks: Yeah, but then you have to install even MORE when you get to the desktop.
[20:24] <Umeaboy> Seems weird to me.
[20:24] <Umeaboy> Either you install none or all.
[20:24] <bekks> Umeaboy: Which isnt tragically, since the installation is quite fast, and installing updates afterwards is fast, too.
[20:24] <Umeaboy> At once.
[20:24] <daftykins> xNear: you have "radeon.runpm=0" in your kernel boot parameters, this is likely not helping.
[20:24] <xNear> ahh
[20:24] <xNear> i forgot to disable that
[20:24] <Seveas> Umeaboy: isn't it that the installer only does security updates and the installed system also does bugfix updates?
[20:25] <xNear> it was at tutorial for vga switcheoor
[20:25] <daftykins> xNear: hold left shift at startup, use 'e' to edit and delete it once for a *one time* boot test.
[20:25] <Umeaboy> Seveas: Could be.
[20:25] <Seveas> Umeaboy: I still see your point, doing them all during install makes more sense
[20:25] <Umeaboy> No idea thou.
[20:25] <xNear> but i must install fglrx
[20:25] <xNear> ok
[20:26] <Umeaboy> Because I get a permission error on first boot of Ubuntu when trying to setup my Wifi to be used.
[20:26] <Umeaboy> If I login and perform an update I don't have this issue anymore.
[20:27] <daftykins> xNear: i thought you installed it already...
[20:27] <xNear> how
[20:27] <xNear> its freezing me on boot
[20:27] <daftykins> xNear: with fglrx-updates...
[20:27] <xNear> fglrx-updates freezes my pc
[20:27] <xNear> on boot so i reinstalled it to boot linux
[20:27] <daftykins> you didn't mention that between now and earlier when we were discussing installing it, do you think that maybe it could've been useful to know?
[20:27] <xNear> uninstalled*
[20:28] <xNear> i mentioned that, i think
[20:28] <xNear> if not
[20:28] <xNear> sorry really
[20:28] <daftykins> no you did not :)
[20:28] <xNear> sorry
[20:28] <xNear> so i installed fglrx and i will try to boot it without radeon
[20:28] <daftykins> anyway those AMD hybrid setups are pretty nasty, i'd recommend having a read of this if you haven't seen it - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HybridGraphics
[20:28] <daftykins> no, fglrx-updates
[20:28] <daftykins> fglrx won't work.
[20:29] <xNear> i installed fglrx-updates
[20:29] <xNear> again, i did mistake ;d
[20:29] <daftykins> have a read
[20:29] <Umeaboy> I use modprobe.blacklist=nouveau and that works for me.
[20:29] <Umeaboy> I have HybridGraphics.
[20:30] <xNear> i readed it
[20:30] <xNear> this is why i have that line on boot ;)
[20:30] <daftykins> Umeaboy: that's nvidia, totally irrelevant
[20:30] <Umeaboy> OK.
[20:30] <tct> Alt+digit in Ubuntu doesn't switch tabs. In the terminal, Alt+digit prints the digit. In nautilus, it doesn't do anything. Any ideas what might be the cause?
[20:30] <xNear> ok, reboot
[20:31] <Umeaboy> Gotta quit for a little while.
[20:31] <Umeaboy> Doing some System Testing.
[20:33] <mila> hello
[20:33] <daftykins> hi
[20:34] <xNear> daftykins: its not working
[20:34] <daftykins> that doesn't really give me much detail to go on
[20:35] <xNear> its freezes on splash screen
[20:35] <daftykins> after doing what?
[20:35] <xNear> buffering circle, i mean ubuntu loading
[20:35] <xNear> after writing LUKS password (ya i have encrypted drive)
[20:35] <daftykins> ugh
[20:36] <xNear> maybe try clean reinstall, or we would try repairing for fixing another bug(s)?
[20:37] <daftykins> i don't really have enough experience in those AMD hybrid setups to comment - it's probably too early for 15.10
[20:38] <xNear> ok, fine
[20:38] <xNear> so i must wait?
[20:38] <xNear> the fglrx was broken for hybrid graphics - not otherwise
[20:38] <daftykins> either for someone who's better with those setups, or for AMD to improve them, yes
[20:38] <xNear> ok, fine
[20:39] <daftykins> what do you mean 'not otherwise' ?
[20:39] <xNear> for not-hybrid graphics
[20:39] <daftykins> so using the BIOS to manually switch between?
[20:39] <xNear> from what i readed the problems were encoured only for those who use hybrid graphics
[20:39] <xNear> not for those who have "normal" graphics
[20:39] <xNear> that what i mean
[20:40] <daftykins> oh yeah, for intel only or AMD only.
[20:40] <daftykins> of course, hybrid is what Linux doesn't do well
[20:40] <xNear> no, i cant use bios to switch beetwen two
[20:40] <xNear> i can only use amd+intel or only intel
[20:40] <xNear> what i want to use amd
[20:40] <OerHeks> daftykins, without linux-headers-generic, does that fglrx driver work ? see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD#Installing_via_the_command_line
[20:40] <xNear> so i must choose first option
[20:41] <daftykins> xNear: i don't know what you mean by those choices.
[20:42] <daftykins> OerHeks: i'm only 99% sure, but this is a laptop with intel + AMD adapters at the same time, so i think a standard driver and making a xorg.conf would break
[20:42] <xNear> i mean that there are only these two options in bios
[20:42] <daftykins> xNear: right but you just told me there's no switch in the BIOS, but now you say there is XD
[20:42] <ubu> im trying to install proj-bin 4.9.2-1
[20:42] <ubu> unsuccesfully
[20:42] <daftykins> xNear: sorry i'm going to have to give up. you're hard to follow.
[20:42] <xNear> to use discrete card with integrated, or only integrated
[20:42] <ubu> some know how to?
[20:43] <bekks> ubu: Not enough information provided.
[20:43] <xNear> ahh i mean i cant switch beetwen two to choose ONLY ONE
[20:43] <xNear> that what you meand
[20:43] <ubu> proj 4.8... has problems with rgdal r package
[20:43] <bekks> ubu: Which ubuntu are you on, what did you do, what did you expect to happen, what happened instaed, which error messages did you get?
[20:43] <ubu> ubuntu 15.10
[20:43] <bekks> ubu: "has problems" is too generic, too.
[20:44] <ubu> wanted to upgrade proj 4.9.1 to 4.9.2
[20:44] <ioria> xNear, have you tried to boot without 'spalsh' ?
[20:45] <OerHeks> ubu,  4.9.1-2 is for wily, next Xenial gets  4.9.2-1 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/proj
[20:45] <bekks> ubu: what about my four other questions?
[20:45] <ubu> sorry for asking but  but dont know how to do that
[20:46] <ubu> found https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/proj but dont knwo how to install since binary does not work
[20:47] <ubu> :(
[20:47] <ubu> I mean I do not knwo how to do installation
[20:47] <OerHeks> ubu,  you won't get 4.9.2-1 now. wait for updates.
[20:47] <baiter> again, why are you trying to install it?
[20:47] <ubu> ok thanks
[20:47] <ubu> because
[20:48] <Seveas> ubu: if you don't have a good reason to upgrade, spare yourself the trouble :)
[20:48] <ubu> the R package proj 4.9.1 make a proble to recognize
[20:48] <ubu> coordinate systems
[20:48] <OerHeks> ubu, at this time,  4.9.2-1 just moved from experimental to unstable.
[20:49] <ubu> ohh this means not available ?
[20:49] <OerHeks>  4.9.1-2 is, for wily
[20:49] <ubu> sorry my ignorance wily ?
[20:50] <baiter> the newer ubuntu
[20:50] <OerHeks> wily = 15.10
[20:50] <ubu> Im in 15.10
[20:51] <ubu> I have 15.10 version
[20:51] <baiter> ok, that's wily
[20:51] <ubu> :)
[20:51] <ubu> but what should I do?
[20:52] <soif> wily = ubuntu 15.10
[20:52] <soif> It's Wily Werefwolf to be precise since each version of Ubuntu is named after an animal
[20:52] <soif> Werewolf* sorry
[20:52] <Seveas> ubu: grab the sources from xenial or debian and rebuild on wily
[20:52] <ubu> how should I do that?
[20:53] <Seveas> ubu: or just stick with 4.9.1 :)
[20:58] <xNear> ioria: not
[20:59] <xNear> wait
[20:59] <ioria> xNear, nothing ?
[20:59] <xNear> not actually
[20:59] <xNear> i do not did this
[20:59] <ioria> xNear, ?
[21:00] <ioria> xNear, i mean, try to boot without 'splash' ... in text mode
[21:02] <bigit> hello is there a german IRC for ubuntu ?
[21:02] <Fuchs> bigit: #ubuntu-de for support, #ubuntu-de-offtopic for chatter
[21:02] <bigit> Fuchs: thx
[21:03] <Fuchs> you're welcome
[21:03] <[Roby_Gabber]> ciao
[21:03] <Black_phantom> hey all I just upgraded to Ubuntu 15.10 and got stuck into a login loop, the screen flickers after i enter the password and goes back again to login screen. I tried recovery mode but I cant figure out how to remove the nvidia drivers from terminal. I used apt-get remove --purge-nvidia* but it says that using * gives too many outputs
[21:03] <[Roby_Gabber]> posso fare una domanda
[21:04] <Seveas> Black_phantom: remove the '-' between purge and nvidia
[21:04] <k1l> !it | [Roby_Gabber]
[21:05] <Black_phantom> Can you please give me the specific commands that I should enter when I open recovery mode and run as root shell in order to fix this problem
[21:05] <do2kd> iḿ searching for audio "people" - want to filter noise out of transmissions in realtime with jackrack or other software....thanks for help
[21:06] <xNear> yeah i know ioria
[21:06] <xNear> but i must something do on windows
[21:06] <xNear> actually
[21:06] <ioria> xNear, ok
[21:06] <Bashing-om> Black_phantom: Try : at the login screen key combo ctl_alt+F1 to gaina console, Correct your command to be ' sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia* ' ... no dash betwenn purge and nvidia - .
[21:07] <Black_phantom> Should removing nvidia fix the problem ?
[21:07] <Black_phantom> Should I enter something else after removing nvidia ?
[21:07] <do2kd> if nobody is here who can help, any idea which channel here on freenode or channel on other network?
[21:07] <Seveas> do2kd: maybe #ubuntustudio
[21:08] <MonkeyDust> do2kd  try #ubuntustudio
[21:08] <MonkeyDust> dang Seveas was faster
[21:08] <Bashing-om> Black_phantom: One can expect with nvidia removed that nouveau will load . Maybe not, but try and see what results .
[21:08] <Seveas> MonkeyDust: twss
[21:08] <Black_phantom> ok thanks i will reboot and get back toy
[21:08] <Black_phantom> to you*
[21:09] <thenerdjones> hello everyone
[21:09] <do2kd> thanks
[21:09] <Bashing-om> Black_phantom: L .. If that goes well .. there is a great tool to install proprietary drivers now .
[21:09] <Black_phantom> Which is ?
[21:12] <xNear> im on winddows tablet actually
[21:12] <xNear> i will report my doing
[21:15] <xNear> whhat
[21:15] <xNear> what
[21:15] <xNear> i do not understand that
[21:15] <xNear> it does boot without splashscreen
[21:15] <xNear> how i can chceck fglrx is really running?
[21:17] <creep_> hello
[21:17] <creep_> :D
[21:17] <creep_> I have a question
[21:18] <creep_> Is it possible to install a new linux maintaining files, preferences, programs, etc...?
[21:18] <Seveas> creep_: you can upgrade instead of reinstalling
[21:18] <xNear> when i open amdcccle
[21:18] <xNear> there is error that amd drivers are not working or not correctly installed
[21:19] <creep_> how..
[21:19] <creep_> I have an old linux, called caixa magica
[21:19] <gossie> I've cycled through all my nvidia drivers, byt my video still lags a little bit, like a huge triangular section of my screen is a few frames behind. HP ENVY 17, Nvidia 740m, Ubuntu 15.04, television acting as extended monitor with laptop screen. I'm not a rookie, but i'm a little rusty.
[21:19] <MonkeyDust> creep_  not supported here
[21:19] <creep_> now I want to install Ubuntu...
[21:19] <ldeveaux> creep_, if the question is to install ubuntu in place of an other distribution it is possible if you have separated the hard drive partitions
[21:20] <creep_> keeping my files preferences and programs...
[21:20] <MonkeyDust> !install | creep_ backup your personal files, first
[21:20] <compdoc> xNear, thats a old, low performance video card you have. If the ubuntu driver works, then be happy
[21:20] <salvo> ciAO
[21:20] <salvo> !list
[21:20] <OerHeks> i think it is a bad idea, to keep settings from an other linux.
[21:21] <creep_> of course I will make backups... but I would like to know if it's possible to do it, or else why do it!?
[21:21] <MonkeyDust> creep_  you can keep your files, but probably not your programs and settings
[21:21] <creep_> Caixa Magica is a portuguese version based on Ubuntu
[21:22] <creep_> but it has stopped updating
[21:22] <xNear> the driver is not working
[21:22] <creep_> months ago
[21:22] <creep_> ok
[21:22] <xNear> fglrxinfo is printing about intel card
[21:22] <xNear> also
[21:22] <xNear> FGLRX was working before
[21:23] <xNear> dont say that its old card, i have even gpu in my room from 1999... ah, even if its old, its not bad. i can play even garrys mod at full-hd with every details
[21:23] <creep_> I thought it was better to come here and ask... because a few android versions are upgradable keeping programs and files!
[21:23] <MonkeyDust> creep_  if you're lucky, ubuntu will recognize the caixa settings
[21:25] <creep_> MonkeyDust thank you for your help
[21:25] <xNear> fglrx is returnning badvalue after aticonfig
[21:25] <gossie> Video/graphics problems on an extended display? anyone?
[21:25] <xNear> lol
[21:27] <MonkeyDust> gossie  that's not a nice way to ask a question
[21:27] <daftykins> xNear: that won't work, because the AMD isn't your primary card.
[21:28] <xNear> lel os actually doesnt boot
[21:28] <tct> Alt+digit in Ubuntu doesn't switch tabs. In the terminal, Alt+digit prints the digit. In nautilus, it doesn't do anything. Any ideas what might be the cause?
[21:28] <daftykins> yeah you would not run amdconfig :)
[21:29] <xNear> but its not old card
[21:29] <xNear> lol
[21:29] <MonkeyDust> tct  try alt tab to switch windows
[21:30] <serses> what rm -rf does?
[21:30] <MonkeyDust> EriC^^  it removes without asking confirmation
[21:31] <MonkeyDust> serses  ^^^
[21:31] <Bashing-om>  And ^^ as well .. 'r' means all below it in the file system ! Be very sure !
[21:31] <serses> removes what?
[21:32] <k1l> serses: removes the target even if its a directory and doesnt ask for confirmation
[21:32] <MonkeyDust> serses  the folder you specify, careful with it
[21:32] <MonkeyDust> serses  you probably picked it up somewhere, but better forget and never use it
[21:32] <serses> it is possible to delete it parent too?
[21:35] <fusioned> anyone get any good candy last night?
[21:35] <k1l> fusioned: for regular chat better join #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[21:38] <gossie> MonkeyDust, I asked earlier and no one answered, so rather than spam the chat I sent an abbreviated question.
[21:38] <gossie> I will repost my original
[21:39] <gossie> I've cycled through all my nvidia drivers, byt my video still lags a little bit, like a huge triangular section of my screen is a few frames behind. HP ENVY 17, Nvidia 740m, Ubuntu 15.04, television acting as extended monitor with laptop screen. I'm not a rookie, but i'm a little rusty.
[21:39] <gossie> I apologize if my summary sounded curt
[21:39] <Albicbr> ciao a tutti mi servirebbe un infornazione se possibile
[21:39] <MonkeyDust> gossie  yes, simply hit the up arrow every 15 minutes to repeat
[21:39] <k1l> !it | Albicbr
[21:42] <imutep> german here ?
[21:42] <bekks> !de | imutep
[21:46] <andystar> How do I reset the settings for Cadence?
[21:53] <MonkeyDust> !info cadence
[21:53] <MonkeyDust> anth0ny  what's cadence?
[21:54] <specs> :)
[21:56] <fred> HI
[21:57] <specs> :)
[21:57] <Guest39801> hey
[21:57] <specs> wazaaa
[21:57] <specs> :)
[21:57] <Guest39801> lonely
[21:57] <MonkeyDust> Guest39801  this is the ubuntu support channel
[21:57] <Guest39801> ok
[21:59] <django_> k1l: hey you here?
[22:07] <daftykins> django_: something the channel can help with?
[22:07] <django_> daftykins: idk why ubuntu feels slower than i thought
[22:07] <django_> on my old laptop it was so fast vs windows 7
[22:07] <django_> here its meh
[22:08] <django_> after a while like i cant even print screen
[22:08] <daftykins> where is 'here' ?
[22:08] <django_> another laptop
[22:08] <daftykins> and what spec is it?
[22:08] <daftykins> grep model /proc/cpuinfo && grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo
[22:09] <mahdi_> Hi guys
[22:09] <django_> daftykins: how can i get that info?
[22:09] <django_> from the ubuntu gui
[22:10] <daftykins> django_: type the command i gave in the terminal app
[22:10] <django_> " grep model /proc/cpuinfo && grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo"
[22:10] <django_> all of that?
[22:10] <daftykins> yes
[22:10] <daftykins> mahdi_: hi there
[22:10] <django_> https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/MVKxqyyu/
[22:11] <daftykins> django_: text belongs in a pastebin, taking images of text is highly illogical
[22:11] <django_> lol
[22:11] <django_> true
[22:11] <daftykins> looks like 6GB RAM and an ivybridge i5
[22:11] <thenerdjones> so im having a weird problem, im trying to install ubuntu server on an old laptop i have laying around, and every time i try it, it installs to the usb drive instead of the hard drive, even though i select the hard drive during the install
[22:12] <daftykins> thenerdjones: is that because it gives you a boot error message once you remove the flash drive?
[22:12] <daftykins> django_: and the graphics? "lspci"
[22:12] <django_> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/bMa46a93/
[22:13] <daftykins> django_: you really shouldn't be downloading and installing .deb's - much less trying to install .rpm's :)
[22:13] <django_> yeah i just used another tutorial
[22:13] <django_> i kept on getting errors
[22:13] <daftykins> mmm intel integrated graphics then
[22:13] <django_> this is a standard laptop heh
[22:14] <daftykins> yeah but even laptops can have graphics chips
[22:14] <daftykins> so would you say it slows down the more you have open?
[22:14] <daftykins> thenerdjones: hello? :)
[22:14] <django_> for example friday aftertoon i just closed my laptop, reopened it last night..and if i hit print screen nothig wouud happen
[22:14] <django_> had to restart it
[22:14] <thenerdjones> daftykins: no i just get a blinking cursor when i remove the usb drive, and if i put it back in i get the gnome desktop instead of the installer
[22:15] <daftykins> django_: sounds more like an issue with sleep more than anything
[22:15] <daftykins> thenerdjones: gnome desktop o0 did you install that after server - or ?
[22:15] <django_> daftykins: I also downloaded this cool program that when i right click on files it has the option 'open with terminal' now that is gone
[22:15] <thenerdjones> theres an option to install it while installing server, since i wanted a ui i installed it as well
[22:16] <daftykins> thenerdjones: yeah so GRUB just got put on the wrong disk, if you boot in you can fix that easy :)
[22:16] <daftykins> thenerdjones: are you typing from that gnome desktop right now?
[22:17] <thenerdjones> daftykins: no another pc
[22:17] <daftykins> ok well boot it up
[22:19] <thenerdjones> daftykins: i reinstalled the usb installer, and from the installer boot menu i selected " boot from first hard disk" and it just drops me back into the installer boot menu
[22:20] <berto> ciaooo
[22:20] <daftykins> thenerdjones: ok well put desktop ubuntu on that flash drive and boot it.
[22:20] <EriC^^> thenerdjones: boot into gnome as you were booting before by mistake
[22:20] <EriC^^> then grub-install to the disk
[22:21] <thenerdjones> EriC^^: i already used the linux pen drive back on the usb, haha
[22:22] <berto> !lista
[22:24] <thenerdjones> so you think it is installing to the hard drive and only grub is installing on the usb?
[22:25] <daftykins> thenerdjones: yes
[22:25] <pouletgrill> hello
[22:26] <daftykins> thenerdjones: so like i said, put ubuntu desktop on it so you can boot it and resolve this situation
[22:33] <lickalott> is anyone here familiar with lxd, specifically building a windows client image?
[22:33] <lickalott> I'm not see very much out there in the way of instructions/tuts
[22:34] <compdoc> lickalott, not sure lxd can do that. but Im new to lxd too
[22:35] <k1l> lickalott: iirc containers are just for linux clients
[22:35] <daftykins> yeah doesn't sound like a thing
[22:35] <lickalott> it seemed to me that since version 13 and up provided support for windows clients.  Unless I read that wrong.
[22:35] <lickalott> lemme see if I can find that page.
[22:36] <Seveas> lickalott: to run windows, you need a virtualization solution, not a container.
[22:37] <lickalott> Sorry.  0.19 not 13 - https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/news/
[22:38] <lickalott> I was trying to install xen (currently running 15.04) but that was a disaster.  I just want windows to correct the MS office compatibility issues that I'm running into.  What, in your opinions, is the best option?  virt-manager, boxes, etc...?
[22:39] <daftykins> pretty sure xen is not the favoured tech in ubuntu land
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> !xen
[22:39] <daftykins> lickalott: so you're only after running one VM?
[22:39] <lickalott> i've already swapped out office libre for open office but the files that I have to correct/edit/manipulate/create don't play nice with either libre or open office
[22:39] <lickalott> yes sir.
[22:39] <lickalott> on this laptop.
[22:39] <daftykins> and you didn't just install virtualbox and get it done?
[22:40] <baiter> he's trying to run windows though, so yeah, just use virtualbox
[22:40] <lickalott> i did in the past but VB seems to be such a resource hog.  I was looking for something a little more "bare metal" like xen.  THen I came across lxd+dockers and thought i'd give that a go
[22:41] <bekks> lickalott: xen is a level 1 hypervisor, while lxd+docker are a level 2 hypervisor - just as virtualbox.
[22:41] <baiter> windows is the resource hog
[22:41] <lickalott> but it makes sense that it can't/won't do windows, as there is NO information out there on building a windows client.
[22:41] <daftykins> baiter: such silly comments here do not help anyone.
[22:42] <lickalott> you prefer VB over something like boxes or virt-manager?
[22:42] <lickalott> I haven't tried the other two yet, which is why I'm asking
[22:42] <bekks> lickalott: What is "boxes"?
[22:42] <daftykins> just try them, any poor VB performance was more likely down to not having VT-x enabled / supported.
[22:42] <k1l> lickalott: for quick .docx rebuilding to .doc, yes :)
[22:43] <bekks> lickalott: And are you aware of the fact that libvirt is just a library for accessing hypervisors?
[22:43] <lickalott> no....but I am now.
[22:43] <k1l> could actually try and see what MS office support is in wine, now
[22:43] <trimeta> I'm trying to build a server with a BTRFS RAID 1 root on top of encrypted volumes. Normally, initramfs doesn't want to decrypt two different volumes on boot, but I modified /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/cryptroot to fix this. However, the system still refuses to boot of the BTRFS system wants two devices, even though both of those devices are unlocked.
[22:44] <lickalott> i am also running a Fedora box that I have virt-manager installed and it acts just like virtual box.  I can build a VM from an .iso or otherwise
[22:44] <trimeta> Anyone know what's going on here? I can mount the BTRFS system without error from within the initramfs rescue shell, but for some reason it's not mounting automatically in the scripts.
[22:44] <lickalott> k1l,  I will...thanks!  Never even thought of that.  (which is why I stopped in here.  :D)
[22:45] <k1l> boxes is a virtualbox gui from gnome, iirc
[22:45] <k1l> or some other libvirt gui.
[22:45] <bekks> lickalott: thats because you are using virt-manager with a level 2 hypervisor - just as virtualbox is.
[22:45] <lickalott> sorry bekks, yes k1l is correct.
[22:46] <lickalott> i guess my point in saying that was just that the libvirt libraries come as dependencies with virt-manager, so I didn't know their purpose was to access hypervisors.
[22:57] <weva> hello everyone, I created and mounted some disk images on my home folder. and I moved them elsewhere because my drive warned that there was no more free space. but after moving them, it still shows zero free space
[22:57] <weva> in disk utility I still see the .img and .dd files mounted. could it be the reason?
[22:57] <bekks> weva: Yes.
[22:58] <weva> bekks, I tried for ex. "umount image.dd" and it says "umount: image.dd is not mounted (according to mtab)"
[22:59] <bekks> weva: so look at "mount" and umount whatever you want ;)
[22:59] <ActionParsnip> weva: use the mount point as the thing to unount
[23:01] <weva> ActionParsnip, I'd mounted it at mnt/loop0, mntloop1, mnt/loop2..I dont know how to use them to unmount. I was given the mount commands
[23:02] <ActionParsnip> weva: sudo umount /mnt/loop0       for example
[23:05] <weva> ActionParsnip, it says "not found" for all mount points
[23:06] <ghost-face1> hello , my touchpad on my dell just stopped working out of nowhere, im running ubuntu 14.04 dualboot wiht windows 10.... i tried booting windows 10 and its not working on there either.....im guessing its hardware since it stopped working on both but idk... any help?
[23:06] <ActionParsnip> weva: use the mount command and you can see the mounted things.
[23:07] <wileee> ghost-face1, you been in the bios?
[23:07] <ActionParsnip> ghost-face1: do you have a switch to enable / disable the touch pad
[23:07] <ghost-face1> i didnt check there yet.. i did go into it earlier but i didnt save anyhting
[23:08] <ghost-face1> i dont have a toggle to enable or disable.... i dont believe i do... i was looking for  a FN button but nothing
[23:08] <wileee> ghost-face1, a switch there was the idea, if you've not been there, ignore as of now.
[23:09] <ghost-face1> im using a usb connected mouse right now.. works fine
[23:09] <weva> ActionParsnip, i dont see anything like the image files that are shown mounted in disk utility
[23:10] <bekks> weva: "mount" - take a look at the output.
[23:10] <weva> bekks, you'd like to see the output?
[23:11] <ghost-face1> when i do xinput  i get this  ..... http://pastebin.com/aHAZ40zZ
[23:11] <bekks> weva: Yes, pastebin it please and give us the URL to your paste.
[23:12] <weva> bekks, it is so crazy here that even firefox doesnt work properly. I create the paste, and its link is shown as paste.ubuntu.com, without any number following it
[23:12] <weva> and also firefox with no history and bookmarks
[23:13] <weva> the total of files are shown as 750mb, but I have 0 free space
[23:13] <bekks> weva: due to no space, nothing can be safed.
[23:14] <weva> bekks, but in the output there is nothing resembling these files
[23:14] <benri> i am having some issues with display drivers after installing ubuntu on a new machine
[23:14] <bekks> weva: try: sudo mount | nc termbin.com 9999
[23:16] <benri> the box has an nvidia gtx 970 but even after installing the nvidia drivers, ubuntu doesnt recognize my display and locks me to 800x600
[23:16] <weva> suddenly free space became 12mb and when I restarted firefox it was normal again.
[23:16] <hazamonzo> Hey folks. I just got a copy of Kubuntu installed on a new laptop (Thinkpad w541) including the Nvidia drivers. Everything was looking good until i did a restart (a couple of restarts actually) and now, after the splash screen i get a black screen
[23:17] <hazamonzo> Looks like its graphic driver issues again. Any thoughts on how i can debug this?
[23:17] <weva> bekks, but it'd also worked with terminbin: http://termbin.com/efgv
[23:18] <bekks> weva: And whats the output of "df -h"?
[23:18] <ghost-face1> hope someone can help me out
[23:19] <jmares> Is it possible to disable nouveau without rebooting?
[23:19] <weva> bekks, it is this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13077200/
[23:19] <benri> hazamonzo: you can start by looking at /var/log/dmesg from recovery mode
[23:20] <jmares> I've made an environment setup shell script but installing CUDA requires reboot because nouveau drivers need to be diabled...
[23:20] <hazamonzo> benri: I can still get to a terminal after the splash if thats better than recovery mode. I think its simply a case of the OS loads fine but nothing is rendered
[23:20] <bekks> weva: try running sudo apt-get autoremove
[23:21] <hazamonzo> benri: On moment and i'll take a look
[23:21] <benri> hazamonzo: ok, that works.  yeah its probably a display driver problem or something wrong with your xorg.conf
[23:22] <benri> hazamonzo: do you have nvidia display hardware?
[23:22] <hazamonzo> benri: odd thing is I actually got the drivers working well... for a couple of restarts. Then just recently, a quick reboot with no changes to drivers or what not and nothing
[23:22] <hazamonzo> benri: Display Hardware? You mean a Nvidia GPU?>
[23:23] <hazamonzo> benri: As far as the dmesg log... "Nothing has been logged yet"
[23:23] <benri> hazamonzo: yeah, nvidia GPU. also do you remember what you did change upon the reboot that killed it?
[23:24] <weva> bekks, didnt help
[23:24] <benri> hazamonzo: and thats really strange, there should at least be the boot log there...
[23:24] <hazamonzo> benri: Yeah the card is a K2100m on a thinkpad W541 (brand new laptop and new 15.10 installation)
[23:24] <kostkon> hazamonzo, what about Xorg.0.log
[23:25] <hazamonzo> benri: As for changes... all i did was get the system up to date with what a needed (tools for dev and such) and the only only UI thing... was adding some widgets to the desktop
[23:25] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Let me check. One mo
[23:25] <hazamonzo> kostkon: ack. remind me wher that log file is :)
[23:25] <benri> /etc/X11?
[23:25] <kostkon> hazamonzo, /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[23:26] <benri> oh
[23:26] <benri> oops
[23:26] <weva> bekks, these are the images shown in devices in disk utility: http://is.gd/fSnFRD
[23:26] <kostkon> hazamonzo, lines with errors start with (EE)
[23:26] <hazamonzo> kostkon: I was just about to ask what i was looking for
[23:26] <hazamonzo> one mo. looking for EE
[23:26] <kostkon> hazamonzo, yeah
[23:27] <bekks> weva: PAstebin "df -h" again.
[23:28] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Nothing with EE although.... i did notice "No enabled display devices found"
[23:28] <hazamonzo> Unable to get display device for DPI computation
[23:29] <kostkon> hazamonzo, so it seems it's a display problem
[23:29] <hazamonzo> Is there a chance i can be having these issues because of the silly 2880x1680 resolution?
[23:29] <kostkon> hazamonzo, whats the native res of your monitor
[23:29] <hazamonzo> ^
[23:30] <kostkon> hazamonzo, and you changed to that resolution just before rebooting
[23:30] <kostkon> hazamonzo, ?
[23:30] <hazamonzo> kostkon: 2880x1680(i might be wrong on the verical)
[23:30] <hazamonzo> I've never changed the res so far
[23:30] <hazamonzo> I installed at that res, then installed the Nvidia 352 drivers for performance issues
[23:30] <hazamonzo> restarted
[23:30] <thenerdjones> so now i have installed ubuntu server, but it will only boot when i have my usb drive in, it no longer gives me the option to install it is booted with the usb drive in it just takes me to a gnome desktop ( i opted to install ) but without the usb drive in it just sits at a black screen with a blinking cursor, gparted shows 4 partitions, sda1 is / and the 500 gig hard drive, sda2 is the flash
[23:30] <thenerdjones> drive with "extended" and sda5 is swap, how do i make the hard drive bootable?
[23:30] <hazamonzo> worked well for a couple of reboots
[23:30] <hazamonzo> then darkness
[23:30] <hazamonzo> @ kostkon
[23:31] <kostkon> hazamonzo, you could use pastebinit to paste your log  for everyone to see
[23:31] <kostkon> !pastebinit
[23:31] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Its going to be tough as i only have a basic terminal at the moment :s
[23:31] <weva> bekks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13077351/
[23:32] <kostkon> hazamonzo, that's all you need
[23:32] <frostschutz> weva, if 'sudo losetup' shows those, try 'sudo losetup /dev/loopX' for the loop device X you no longer need (or losetup -D for all)
[23:32] <hazamonzo> kostkon: How might i get to pastebin (sorry if that obvious)
[23:32] <frostschutz> weva, *sudo losetup -d /dev/loopX
[23:32] <kostkon> hazamonzo, see the pastebinit factoid above ^
[23:32] <hazamonzo> oooooh
[23:32] <hazamonzo> i see your pastebin command above
[23:32] <jmares> Is it possible to disable nouveau without rebooting?
[23:32] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Thanks! (and super useful)
[23:32] <hazamonzo> give me a mo
[23:33] <hazamonzo> you want the Xorg.0 log then?
[23:33] <kostkon> hazamonzo, paste that first yes
[23:33] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Okay
[23:34] <weva> frostschutz, they're gone, free space went up to normal. thank you very much!
[23:35] <thenerdjones> it feels a lot to me like the usb drive is the key to my laptop now, haha
[23:36] <weva> bekks, ActionParsnip, thank you!
[23:36] <frostschutz> thenerdjones, what does it look like in fdisk -l or parted -l?
[23:38] <hazamonzo> kostkon: (whew) http://paste.ubuntu.com/13077437/
[23:38] <hazamonzo> kostkon: No wireless so i had to sit next to the cat5 cable at the router :)
[23:38] <kostkon> hazamonzo, let's see
[23:39] <thenerdjones> frostschutz: nothing on the hard drive has boot ticked, just the usb drive does sda1 is linux 2 is extended and 5 is swap, sdb1 is fat but is bootable
[23:39] <kostkon> hazamonzo, does your laptop also have an intel graphics card?
[23:39] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Well spotted
[23:40] <hazamonzo> its has both intel and Nvidi
[23:40] <kostkon> !optimus
[23:40] <kostkon> not helpful factoid
[23:40] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Thats the swapping of cards software right?
[23:40] <kostkon> hazamonzo, yes
[23:41] <frostschutz> thenerdjones, actual output?
[23:41] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Is there an issue with the nvidia card being selected on boot or something?
[23:42] <kostkon> hazamonzo, theres definitely something wrong with it since it says No monitor specified for screen "nvidia".
[23:42] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Ha! That doesn't sound good at all!
[23:43] <hazamonzo> kostkon: So install bumblebee is a good start?
[23:43] <kostkon> hazamonzo, looks like there's an extra step to be done yes https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee#Setup_for_14.04_and_later
[23:45] <hazamonzo> kostkon: Okay. That gives me something to google at least! Much appreciated

[23:46] <emitattuo> Hi everyone, what is the fastest way to copy all files (~30GB) from an SD card?  The fastest I'm getting is 1.7-2.8MB/s using mc, but would rsync or something else work better?  Once I'm done with the SD card, I have to backup 40GB from one computer to another.  I was using a link-local FTP server, but I can't get it to work now, for some reason.
[23:48] <frostschutz> emitattuo, mc, cp, rsync, etc. etc. should all be fine, unless the files are very tiny or horribly fragmented for some reason
[23:49] <weva> hello again, how can i restore an external drive partition from its dd image file
[23:49] <weva> ?
[23:50] <daftykins> dd if=/path/to/image of=/dev/sdX bs=(appropriate for image type)
[23:50] <daftykins> note that (appropriate for image type) is "2M" or something similar that depends on your image format
[23:51] <emitattuo> frostschutz, thanks.  It's a combination of hundreds of python scripts as well as some larger files (140MB) and random files from a backed-up home directory.
[23:53] <weva> daftykins, it is a file in "image.dd" format, would BS be a specific number, i.e. 4096?
[23:53] <baiter> hope you mean sftp not ftp
[23:53] <frostschutz> weva, bs=1M is fine, unless you have a good reason to use something else
[23:54] <daftykins> weva: but an image of what
[23:54] <frostschutz> weva, cp works fine too, cp /path/to/image /dev/partition
[23:57] <weva> daftykins, it is an image of a partition, the file type of which I assigned as "linux luks" via testdisk
[23:58] <weva> now I'd like to create a partition again, to see if I get a proper luks one
[23:58] <daftykins> partition, not disk eh... hmm.
[23:58] <weva> because it was a properly created partition, but it turned into "unknown" when plugged in at the next session
[23:59] <weva> so I created an image of this problem partition. but i dont remember if it was the image or the real partition that I assigned the file type. maybe it doesn't matter?
[23:59] <ajacmac> hey, does anyone here know how to get pygame installed on python 3.7 on lubuntu 15.10?
