| BottomNotch | Daftykins: can I restore a backup from the command line? | 00:00 |
| daftykins | BottomNotch: i don't know how you backed up | 00:00 |
| BottomNotch | I backup up from system settings in unity | 00:01 |
| daftykins | telldrak: what are you doing to want sendmail on these hosts? running internal email? | 00:01 |
| the_count | telldrak: What exactly is the issue? | 00:01 |
| BottomNotch | Backed up autocorrect :/ | 00:01 |
| daftykins | BottomNotch: i have no experience with that | 00:01 |
| BottomNotch | I'll Google it | 00:01 |
| BottomNotch | I should have never of purged unity | 00:02 |
| daftykins | *nod* | 00:02 |
| BottomNotch | Lesson learned | 00:02 |
| the_count | daftykins: What kind of issues does purging unity introduce | 00:02 |
| BottomNotch | If I end up having to do a fresh install I think I'll try Linux mint, maybe my touchscreen will work. | 00:03 |
| daftykins | hmm, kind of irritating for you to try and learn via those already tasked with helping but... | 00:03 |
| daftykins | BottomNotch: that'll be an even bigger mistake :) | 00:03 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: Maybe I should restart, then repopulate that list... The results may be different/better | 00:03 |
| daftykins | 1) installed xfce i think? 2) purged unity 3) they both share packages, so unity removal took out what xfce needed to run - leaving a hosed system | 00:03 |
| BottomNotch | It was fine until I rebooted :/ | 00:04 |
| daftykins | lol | 00:04 |
| BottomNotch | But yeah exactly what happened | 00:04 |
| daftykins | and *BANG* the desktop environment is gone! | 00:04 |
| the_count | daftykins: oh, oops | 00:04 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: Why would purging one package remove it's dependencies that are also dependencies of a different package? | 00:05 |
| the_count | daftykins, how do you make you're *BAND* think? | 00:05 |
| BottomNotch | I'm just gonna try to install lxde | 00:05 |

| BottomNotch | Well thanks for all your help daftykins | 00:06 |
| daftykins | np, we tried | 00:07 |
| AlexQ | Well, I purged that Intel GPU driver and now I have 2:2.99.917+git20150808-0ubuntu4. So apparently it was from that ppa | 00:07 |
| the_count | daftykins: Point taken | 00:07 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: And, restarted, the kernel list is definantly shorter, but not as short as one world think, repopulating list | 00:08 |
| AlexQ | I'd like to replace all packages that came from that ppu with Ubuntu ones, but that command ppa-purge doesn't find the ppu | 00:08 |
| AlexQ | probably gone after upgrade | 00:08 |
| AlexQ | what to do? | 00:08 |
| BottomNotch | Dafttkins: well I will try Linux mint if I need to do a fresh install, I really want a working touchscreen | 00:08 |
| daftykins | BottomNotch: alright, just know you can't get any help with Mint here | 00:09 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: I think this list may look the same as well: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13379098/ | 00:09 |

| SupaYoshi | hey how do i add a br0, that asks for a second dhcp lease of my router? | 00:18 |
| SupaYoshi | I have a ubuntu server, trying to setup a virtualmachine and I want the br0 to receive an IP from the router. | 00:19 |
| SupaYoshi | I tried doing this, but that gave it the same IP as the eth0. and that doesn't look healthy | 00:19 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: Here were the results: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13379481/ | 00:19 |
| EriC^^ | truexfan81: there's a script that checks that, you could probably modify it | 00:19 |
| Bashing-om | the_count: Our former dpkg -P commands did complete, what we have now is the results of incomplete mass removals .. We will get caught up here in a bit .. now : ' sudo dpkg -P linux-signed-image-3.16.0-46-generic ' . | 00:19 |

| truexfan81 | EriC^^: in this case i only have 2 kernels installed but the new one is working nicely, so no reason i can think of to keep the old one | 00:20 |
| daftykins | SupaYoshi: not how it works at all | 00:20 |
| daftykins | SupaYoshi: let the VM get its' own via bridging. | 00:20 |

| Decco848 | Setting jumpers and defining IDE on older machines is complicated, and Wondering why you cant boot from img is completly triffling. | 00:21 |
| daftykins | SupaYoshi: gotta install bridge-utils then edit /etc/network/interfaces then ; i'm sure there's a guide to KVM network config somewhere | 00:21 |
| SupaYoshi | ERROR Error in network device parameters: Unknown network type br0 | 00:22 |

| daftykins | VictoriaXOXO: /var/log/boot.log ? | 00:30 |
| dengxinjun | hello | 00:31 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: I'll look at it! | 00:31 |
| SupaYoshi | i have bridge-utils installed | 00:31 |
| dengxinjun | Where's you doing? | 00:31 |
| daftykins | SupaYoshi: right but that doesn't magically create you a br0 | 00:31 |
| SupaYoshi | http://paste.ubuntu.com/13379782/ | 00:31 |
| daftykins | dengxinjun: ubuntu support questions only | 00:31 |
| dengxinjun | what's you doing? | 00:31 |
| SupaYoshi | daftykins, do i need to put something in networking? | 00:32 |
| daftykins | right so the interface is called virbr0 | 00:32 |
| SupaYoshi | no thats from virtualbox. | 00:32 |
| SupaYoshi | I was using that with virtualbox. | 00:32 |
| daftykins | SupaYoshi: what's the end goal here, what is this VM going to do... | 00:32 |
| SupaYoshi | I want another bridge. | 00:32 |
| SupaYoshi | The vm is going to run a freepbx distro. | 00:32 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: Weird. I'm sure I saw at least one (1) [FAIL] there. | 00:33 |
| SupaYoshi | and i want it to access my lan. So i want it to be bridged with my lan. | 00:33 |
| daftykins | VictoriaXOXO: on shutdown maybe, but that doesn't remain visible now... | 00:33 |
| SupaYoshi | daftykins, so what do i do to create br0? | 00:33 |
| Bashing-om | the_count: Next is same for the headers ' sudo dpkg -P linux-headers-3.16.0-{50,51,52,53}-generic '. | 00:33 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: Dang. How do I catch it? | 00:33 |
| daftykins | SupaYoshi: so with virtualbox networking it should've been easy enough to get that VM to have an IP on your real LAN | 00:33 |
| SupaYoshi | no i am using kvm for this vm | 00:33 |
| daftykins | VictoriaXOXO: pass. | 00:34 |
| SupaYoshi | im not using virtualbox for this. | 00:34 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: You pass on that question? | 00:34 |
| daftykins | SupaYoshi: ugh, i think you're making life harder for yourself when you don't have the experience with any of these. | 00:34 |
| daftykins | anyway my battery is about to go so i think i'm out :) | 00:34 |
| SupaYoshi | I have used br0 before on something else. | 00:34 |
| SupaYoshi | I just want to learn it. | 00:34 |
| daftykins | find a guide then perhaps | 00:34 |
| SupaYoshi | Okay bye | 00:34 |
| daftykins | or ask in ##networking | 00:34 |
| daftykins | but i can tell you you're going about that task in a pretty insane way | 00:35 |

| SchrodingersScat | !man | SupaYoshi, try man brctl, if there's an addif, there may be a rmif or delif somewhere. | 00:40 |
| ubottu | SupaYoshi, try man brctl, if there's an addif, there may be a rmif or delif somewhere.: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in.

| k1l_ | VictoriaXOXO: they get recyled on every reboot. so look into the .0 or .1 | 00:53 |
| k1l_ | VictoriaXOXO: the things you see is dmesg, but since systemd is used that is not saved anymore. | 00:54 |

| Nyterax | k1l_, i do that but the generic kernels are still there, while i use lowlatency | 01:00 |
| Guy1524 | i think so let me check | 01:01 |
| k1l_ | Nyterax: then sudo apt-get remove linux-generic && sudo apt-get autoremove | 01:01 |
| Guy1524 | yes | 01:01 |
| Nyterax | k1l_, this is my /boot/ http://pastebin.com/gkCXkewB what can i remove safely? | 01:03 |

| lotuspsychje | Guy1524: wich graphics driver do you have active right now? | 01:03 |
| k1l_ | Nyterax: but you only have a 3.13 lowlatency kernel there | 01:03 |

| the_count | Bashing-om: I might have missed a message you sent withing the last 10 minutes | 02:13 |
| TJ- | dcope: "aha!" Then it would suggest that router is most likely the problem. Continue with the 'tcpdump' analysis as I recommended, so you can find out if the router is failing to pass on the ICMP request to the 12.04 PC, or whether the PC receives it, replies, but the router doesn't pass the reply to the source PC. | 02:13 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: I was disconnected temporarily | 02:13 |

If you can prove (with tcpdump on both source and target PC) that ICMP packets (and possibly other packets - UDP, TCP) are being dropped, then you'll need to investigate the router itself. there might be some rate-limiting Anti-DDoS rules in its firewall causing that for example | 02:22 |

| daftykins | on the entire system? | 03:20 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: Yeah! | 03:20 |

| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: Well, there's really no plan. I just wanted to know if it was POSSIBLE on a Linux box. I used to like doing that. | 03:22 |
| daftykins | but why | 03:22 |
| daftykins | when will this be relevant? | 03:23 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: When finding out what's taking up space. :P | 03:23 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: OR you could tell me how to find ALL files over 1 GB of size? | 03:23 |
| daftykins | i already did, find does that | 03:24 |
| daftykins | and i already told you there's a graphical disk usage program | 03:24 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: Just find and nothing else? | 03:24 |
| daftykins | "find / -size 1G" or similar | 03:25 |
| daftykins | "man find" for more. | 03:25 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: Let me try. | 03:25 |
| daftykins | i don't think that was the correct format | 03:26 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: You should've seen my terminal. XD | 03:26 |
| daftykins | no i'm ok. | 03:27 |
| daftykins | i was playing with the command myself; worked for me on a path i know i have a large file in by running "find . -size +1000M" | 03:27 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Yeah, that worked better. | 03:29 |
| VictoriaXOXO | I was sure I had some old VM file, but apparently not. | 03:29 |
| Bashing-om | VictoriaXOXO: ' sudo find / -type f -size +1G -exec du -h {} \; 2>/dev/null | sort -hr | head -n 10 ' which will search the whole filesystem for files bigger than 1G and then sort them and print the 10 largest ones (you can adjust the '1G' and the ' -n 10' if that's not granular enough) - you can exclude mounted filesystems with '-xdev' or a suitable '-prune' if you have a more complicated multi - partition filesystem . | 03:30 |

| Guest47237 | anyone help me about installing utorrent on ubuntu mate | 04:10 |
| AlexQ | Hi | 04:13 |
| AlexQ | I have updated to Ubuntu 15.10, then performed repo update and upgrade, reboots etc. and the newest kernel I have is vmlinuz-3.19.0-33-generic | 04:14 |
| AlexQ | I have also installed Ubu 15.10 from scratch in parallel, on a different partition and I have vmlinuz-4.2.0-18-generic as of now | 04:15 |
| AlexQ | What's wrong? | 04:15 |
| AlexQ | Should I manually install a kernel package? What is the name of the newest stable available package for my architecture (amd64)? Any special package name? | 04:16 |
| Bashing-om | !hwe | AlexQ | 04:19 |
| ubottu | AlexQ: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 04:19 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: i bet you're missing linux-generic :) | 04:19 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: It is quite possible :) | 04:19 |
| daftykins | sudo apt install linux-generic | 04:19 |
| AlexQ | give me a sec for reboot | 04:20 |
| daftykins | or confirm with "dpkg -l | grep linux-" | 04:20 |
| AlexQ | can I do it with chroot without rebooting? | 04:20 |
| daftykins | why are you rebooting at all? | 04:20 |
| daftykins | reboot has nothing to do with installing this metapackage | 04:20 |
| AlexQ | I am running another Ubuntu installation on my Laptop, just wanted to check if package is there without rebooting | 04:21 |
| AlexQ | to the other installation I have issues with | 04:21 |
| daftykins | so you have two side by side? | 04:22 |
| trustisimportant | hey guys, I have a question, is ubtuntu really more safe than windows, in terms of backdoors, etc? | 04:22 |
| TJ- | AlexQ: yes, a chroot is sufficient to check is it is installed | 04:22 |
| daftykins | trustisimportant: that's not a support question technically, you could talk about Linux in general vs. Windows in ##linux | 04:22 |
| TJ- | trustisimportant: I'd worry more about front-doors generally :) | 04:22 |
| AlexQ | yes, it isn't there | 04:22 |
| OerHeks | trustisimportant, ubuntu has no backdoors, not even windows. | 04:23 |
| trustisimportant | what is a front door :)? | 04:23 |
| trustisimportant | via the websorser? and programms? | 04:23 |
| trustisimportant | webbrowser* | 04:23 |
| daftykins | as i said, ##linux | 04:23 |
| TJ- | trustisimportant: user behaviour; browsing with Javascript/Flash enabled, opening attachments, etc. | 04:23 |
| trustisimportant | sorr y bro:) | 04:24 |
| daftykins | you are not my sibling | 04:24 |
| trustisimportant | ok, my trust in the world has gone, which channel do you recommend me? | 04:24 |
| daftykins | you've seen it named already, twice | 04:24 |
| AlexQ | TJ-: Interestingly, there are libc headers for 4.2.0-18.22 listed. 3.19.0-33.38 - was that the latest kernel for 15.04 then? | 04:24 |

| TJ- | apparently! | 04:27 |
| lotuspsychje | nite nite guys | 04:27 |
| daftykins | o/ | 04:27 |
| AlexQ | Might that be a reason that the system is not working correctly after the upgrade? I couldn't make much out from the syslog, bootlog, Xorg log etc. | 04:29 |
| AlexQ | Will boot into recovery and install linux-generic | 04:29 |

| centaur5 | TJ-, yep exact same DNS server on both machines but the desktop doesn't lookup. | 05:17 |
| curtis__ | please... | 05:17 |
| TJ- | centaur5: first thing is to ensure you've not made a silly typo in the edit box :) 2nd is to review /var/log/syslog where NM reports very verbosely when its configuring an interface. | 05:18 |
| curtis__ | screw this | 05:18 |
| dengxinjun | this is a book | 05:19 |
| centaur5 | TJ-, triple checked digits and even rebooted with saved settings. I'll check the logs real quick. | 05:19 |
| TJ- | centaur5: the way it works is NM controls a private instance of dnsmasq, the caching DNS server, which listens on 127.0.1.1. NM sends the configured DNS server IP address to dnsmasq over DBus when the connection is activated | 05:19 |
| dengxinjun | I much do it | 05:19 |
| TJ- | centaur5: check that this is a sym-link: "ls -l /etc/resolv.conf" should be a pointer to "../run/resolvconf/resolv.conf" | 05:19 |
| TJ- | centaur5: also, check the content of "/etc/resolv.conf" - the target file should contain "nameserver 127.0.1.1" | 05:20 |
| centaur5 | TJ-, no symlink exists and the DNS in resolv is the previous router | 05:21 |
| dengxinjun | the ubuntu very .......... | 05:22 |

| thoughtful_gobli | https://gist.github.com/anonymous/b4429d3ae69a58809c4b | 05:54 |
| bencc1 | can I su to root when I'm not in the sudoers list? | 05:56 |
| wmorri | thoughtful_gobli, have you tried running sudo apt-get update recently? | 05:56 |
| thoughtful_gobli | Yes, ran it just before and it ran without errors, I have also run sudo apt-get upgrade. | 05:57 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | thoughtful_gobli try running sudo apt-get -f install | 05:57 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | thoughtful_gobli read this thread http://askubuntu.com/questions/140246/how-do-i-resolve-unmet-dependencies-after-adding-a-ppa | 05:58 |
| OerHeks | thoughtful_gobli, you'll need 2 packages in this order:> sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils | 05:58 |
| thoughtful_gobli | https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6d07c062f36d188188a5 < it threw the same error | 05:58 |
| thoughtful_gobli | ok, reading though that now | 05:58 |
| * qu | 05:59 | |
| SeriouslyLaugh | thoughtful_gobli also read this http://askubuntu.com/questions/451364/how-to-enable-exfat-in-ubuntu-14-04 | 06:00 |
| thoughtful_gobli | Ok, Thank you. Oh apologies i should have said i am running ubuntu 12.04 | 06:01 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | ok use this http://askubuntu.com/questions/100278/how-do-i-install-and-mount-an-exfat-partition | 06:02 |
| AlexQ | Fixed! After some dist-upgrade and installation of linux-generic. One problem remaining: gazziliions of crash messages about a previous kernel still appearing. How to get rid of that? | 06:05 |
| AlexQ | Probably cashed somewhere | 06:06 |
| Ben64 | pastebin the errors | 06:06 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | AlexQ try to post a snippet of the exact errors | 06:06 |
| spilt_milk | what's up my ubuntoonians? | 06:07 |
| AlexQ | "System problem detected" appearing, which can't be true as they are all about a package "linux-image..(previous version that was problematic)"... Basically the messages that were appearing before I fixed the problem of missing linux-generic after upgrade from 15.04 to 15.10. So this looks like old messages appearing | 06:08 |
| jnesselr | spilt_milk: Trying to install ubuntu on an old mac mini. Pulling my hair out. The usual. | 06:08 |
| thoughtful_gobli | Thanks that was the one I was following. I have made a copy of /etc/apt/sources.list and run the "sudo apt-get clean" and "sudo apt-get autoclean" command but still have the same issue. | 06:08 |
| dave__ | #test | 06:08 |
| thoughtful_gobli | if i attempt to install sudo apt-get -f install fuse-utils I get a more specific error: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/64f16339a4c0c3053fc9 | 06:08 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | AlexQ run sudo rm /var/crash/* | 06:08 |
| AlexQ | SeriouslyLaugh: oo, yeah, I've been looking for that, but thought it was inside /var/log | 06:09 |
| jnesselr | So why does the ubuntu server iso keep trying to check for the cd-rom? It's not running off of a cd-rom. | 06:10 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | thoughtful_gobli you may have to purge exfat and reinstall using the PPA in the latest link i sent | 06:10 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | run sudo apt-get purge fuse-exfat exfat-utils | 06:10 |
| AlexQ | SeriouslyLaugh: Thanks | 06:11 |
| jnesselr | It's starting to get... irritating. | 06:11 |
| wmorri | jnesselr, are you talking about when it does a hardware check? | 06:11 |
| thoughtful_gobli | It looks like they have never been installed: "Package fuse-exfat is not installed, so not removed, Package exfat-utils is not installed, so not removed' | 06:11 |
| jnesselr | wmorri: When I'm trying to install, yes. I think it's looking for the install media. | 06:12 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | the run sudo apt-get clean | 06:12 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | then sudo apt-get autoremove | 06:12 |
| jnesselr | "Your installation CD-ROM couldn't be mounted. This probably means that the CD-ROM was not in the drive. If so you can insert it and try again." | 06:12 |
| jnesselr | But I'm not booting from the CD drive. | 06:13 |
| jnesselr | And when I try to mount /dev/sdb3 (the disk I put the installer on) onto /cdrom, it tells me that it's an Invalid Argument | 06:14 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | then install the ppa; sudo apt-add-repository ppa:relan/exfat | 06:14 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | then run sudo apt-get update | 06:14 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | then run sudo apt-get install fuse-exfat exfat-utils | 06:14 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | AlexQ sure thing | 06:14 |
| baiter | if you are running from cd rom, then you don't need to mount it | 06:15 |
| wmorri | jnesselr, this seems to be an issue, I am looking for a good solution. | 06:15 |
| baiter | it's already mounted, hence you can boot from it | 06:15 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | ok then just add the PPA above, update, and install that way | 06:15 |
| jnesselr | baiter: Sure, but this computer no longer has a functioning CD-ROM drive. | 06:15 |
| TJ- | jnesselr: that suggests the /etc/apt/sources.list has the original DVD/ISO archive entry not commented out | 06:15 |
| jnesselr | TJ-: What, on the ramdisk that's loaded right now? | 06:16 |
| baiter | ... | 06:16 |
| baiter | you are doing some strange stuff | 06:16 |
| baiter | why don't you just install it like normal people? | 06:16 |
| TJ- | jnesselr: check /etc/apt/sources.list, see if it has an "deb cdrom: ..." entry | 06:16 |
| AlexQ | night night' | 06:17 |
| jnesselr | TJ-: It's a ramdisk. There's literally no /etc/apt folder. | 06:17 |
| TJ- | jnesselr: otherwise, its another issue, which is the mounting of the LIVE ISO image to /cdrom/ | 06:17 |
| baiter | ... what's a ramdisk? | 06:17 |
| jnesselr | baiter: It's not my fault I can't burn a CD and try it in this drive. | 06:17 |
| TJ- | jnesselr: the live env still has all the /etc/ files, its unpacked from a squashfs file system | 06:17 |
| baiter | you don't need a cd | 06:18 |
| baiter | to install it | 06:18 |
| baiter | you can install from usb | 06:18 |
| wmorri | TJ-, I think i found a solution, but I haven't had this problem so I don't know if it works. http://askubuntu.com/questions/593002/fail-to-install-ubuntu-server-14-04-64bit-lts-from-usb-drive | 06:18 |
| jnesselr | baiter: Which is where I'm at now. | 06:18 |
| jnesselr | Which is what's causing this error. | 06:18 |
| baiter | isn't there an option to install? | 06:19 |
| TJ- | baiter: the actual device doesn't matter; the hybrid ISO images are designed to work as if they were loaded from a DVD even if they start from a USB hard disk emulation | 06:19 |
| jnesselr | baiter: Yes. I hit install, go through the normal prompts, set up keyboard, etc. It then fails to detect the CD-ROM for the install media | 06:20 |
| TJ- | jnesselr: did you try the 'switch USB ports' trick so the device is re-mounted ? | 06:20 |
| baiter | so can't you skip it? | 06:20 |
| TJ- | baiter: no; it's a major fault. The ISO image disappears | 06:21 |
| jnesselr | TJ-: yes | 06:21 |
| TJ- | I used to see this a lot with SCSI-attached CD/DVD drives on servers. The installer expects them to be on ATA and if libata isn't involved, the device name isn't what the installer expects | 06:22 |
| jnesselr | I mean good grief, LFS gave me fewer issues than this computer is lol. | 06:22 |

| bindi | are there any problems to be expected if I want to dualboot ubuntu with win10 and bitlocker on a fakeraid? :-) | 06:26 |
| latrodectus | fakeraid? | 06:26 |
| latrodectus | bindi: so long as you partition your drive correctly i see no problems | 06:26 |
| bindi | fakeraid is kinda hardware raid but its software raid anyway, you know, motherboard raid | 06:27 |
| latrodectus | !partition | bindi | 06:27 |
| ubottu | bindi: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PartitioningSchemes l - For partitioning programs see !GParted, or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 06:27 |
| bindi | i know how to partition things but last time i installed on a fakeraid gparted showed everything 4 times (i have 4 disks in a raid0) but i got it installed anyway :P | 06:27 |
| latrodectus | well it probabily didn't register as one disk | 06:28 |
| OerHeks | usually bitlocker takes the whole drive.. | 06:28 |
| jnesselr | BitLocker can get really weird with ubuntu systems. | 06:28 |
| bindi | I've shrunk the partition succesfully already | 06:28 |
| latrodectus | OerHeks: can't you have bitlocker take a partition | 06:28 |
| bindi | I would think that the free space wouldnt be encrypted.. that would be silly (or would it?) | 06:29 |
| OerHeks | bindi, one way to find out, boot the iso in live mode and see | 06:29 |
| latrodectus | bindi: it wouldn't be silly | 06:30 |
| TJ- | bindi: It depends on the fakeraid, GRUB boot-loader won't be able to use it, but the OS should do via either mdraid or dmraid | 06:31 |
| latrodectus | so long as you keep your secure shit on your secured drive, i see no problems with not using the full drive | 06:31 |
| TJ- | bindi: you'll need a separate device for GRUB to boot from | 06:32 |
| bindi | huh? | 06:32 |
| bindi | i've installed ubuntu on the same fakeraid before though and it booted | 06:32 |
| TJ- | bindi: also, 4 drives in RADID-0 is a recipe for disaster | 06:32 |
| bindi | 14.04 had some trouble with grub installation but i got it with fixboot or something, 15.04 did it on its own | 06:33 |
| bindi | no other boot devices in the system and it worked :P | 06:33 |
| bindi | TJ-: they're SSDs | 06:33 |
| bX | fuck | 06:34 |
| jnesselr | So just an update, I'm trying something a little weird. I pushed the install media on the internal sata and I'm also pushing it to the external drive. Theoretically, I should be able to mount the iso from one onto the ram disk for the other. | 06:34 |
| jnesselr | where it's expected the cdrom that is | 06:34 |
| bX | fuck | 06:34 |
| TJ- | bindi: that was luck :) ... RAID-0 (striping) means the first disk of the array must NOT store its fakeraid metadata at the beginning of the disk(s), and the partitioning must leave space for GRUB to install its core.img. GRUB will depend on the OROM of the FakeRAID controller for BIOS boot-time services, so it can only start in biosdisk mode, not nativedisk | 06:34 |
| bX | asu | 06:34 |
| bX | pejuh ngasu | 06:35 |
| bX | you stupid | 06:35 |
| jnesselr | well that was weird. | 06:35 |
| bindi | TJ-: what was luck exactly? :o | 06:36 |
| TJ- | bindi: GRUB often cannot find its core.img, or its root file-system, when fakeRAID is involved and its not a simple RAID-1 mirror config | 06:36 |
| slacking | bX#knapa bro | 06:36 |
| bindi | TJ-: right | 06:37 |
| jnesselr | BOOOM BABY THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT | 06:41 |
| jnesselr | So, final solution for those curious: dd the iso to both the internal hard disk on a partion instead of the full disk, so the EFI stuff still plays nice, as well as to a usb disk. Then mount the usb disk to /cdrom through fstab. Profit. Maybe. Still trying to do the install. At least it recognizes the disk at this point. | 06:43 |

| ubuntu037 | Good morning, I have just installed a brand new Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS on a server, the machine has 128gb of RAM 2x 300GB Hard Raided SSD's and a 2tb Sata drive on it, Also a e5 1650 v3 CPU. THe machine is currently idling and has been all night but the load avg is 1.04 1.05 1.05. Does anyone have any pointers into what I should look into to determine what's causing this? | 08:56 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: Yes. Can you "pastebinit /proc/interrupts" ? | 08:57 |
| ubuntu037 | yeh, one sec | 08:57 |

| bekks | ubuntu037: After booting into your new kernel, you can take a look at powertop | 09:00 |
| TJ- | !ltse | ubuntu037 | 09:00 |
| ubottu | ubuntu037: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 09:00 |
| ubuntu037 | I have just installed it, should I reboot or anything? | 09:01 |
| bekks | ubuntu037: You need to reboot, yes. | 09:01 |
| ubuntu037 | ok great, one second then! | 09:02 |
| bekks | BEFORE you do: | 09:02 |
| ubuntu037 | oops! | 09:02 |
| ubuntu037 | to late haha | 09:02 |
| bekks | You should slow down. | 09:02 |
| bekks | Because you didnt do what you were told to do: investigate /proc/interrupts | 09:02 |
| bekks | After rebooting, its pointless to do that. | 09:02 |
| ubuntu037 | I pasted it | 09:02 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: also, what's the current "uptime" - so I can get an idea of how long it took achieve those totals | 09:03 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: it's fine; reboot is good, no point diagnosing on an old kernel version | 09:03 |
| ubuntu037 | Uptime was about 4 hours | 09:03 |
| ubuntu037 | 24* | 09:03 |
| ubuntu037 | I installed the system yesterday about this time... | 09:03 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: right, so the LOC interrupt totals were quite high for that | 09:03 |
| ubuntu037 | what is "LOC"? | 09:04 |
| TJ- | oh, maybe not so bad then! | 09:04 |
| TJ- | CPU-local interrupts | 09:04 |
| ubuntu037 | thanks | 09:04 |
| TJ- | when the LAPIC fires (Local Advanced Programmable Interrupt Timer) | 09:04 |
| ubuntu037 | when the machine boots the load is low, perhaps 0.2 | 09:05 |
| ubuntu037 | at first I thought it was top/htop reporting the wrong information or adding 1.00 to the correct number | 09:05 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: generally the load average is due to internal kernel waiting, so it doesn't show up in any kind of process or I/O (disk, network) anaylsis. | 09:05 |
| bekks | Even 0.2 is quite high for an idling machine :) | 09:06 |
| ubuntu037 | this is what I thought, the machine is replacing an older machine with a lesser CPU, no SSD's and Less RAM and that idles at 0.1 | 09:06 |
| ubuntu037 | + and it has a little traffic on it | 09:06 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: it's not abnormal on a multi-core system like that to see a high load average | 09:07 |
| bekks | Sounds like the old machine would have been sufficient :) | 09:07 |
| ocnios | Hello | 09:07 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: I've seen quite a few E5-1650s recently with the same | 09:08 |
| ubuntu037 | the strange thing is that we have an identical machine (in terms of hardware) and software stack in our cluster and it's nowhere near this kind of load, even under strain | 09:08 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: same mobo/firmware version? | 09:08 |
| ubuntu037 | that I am not sure about unfortunately | 09:09 |
| ubuntu037 | Machine has now rebooted, load is 1.07, htop reports no movement on the 12 CPU's | 09:09 |
| bekks | ubuntu037: So take a look at powertop. | 09:09 |
| ubuntu037 | 0.7% on a random core every 5(ish) seconds or somehting | 09:10 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: differences due to firmware/ACPI can often contribute. once it is booted looking at dmesg ouput you can get the mobo/firmware version with "dmesg | grep DMI:" | 09:10 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: is it a HA cluster? | 09:10 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: '5ish seconds' sounds like a write-back cache flush | 09:11 |
| ubuntu037 | what am I looking for in `powertop` ? | 09:11 |
| bekks | ubuntu037: The output :) | 09:11 |
| ubuntu037 | ++ :) | 09:12 |
| ubuntu037 | Summary: 109.3 wakeups/second, 0.0 GPU ops/seconds, 0.0 VFS ops/sec and 1.4% CPU use | 09:12 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: check the idle stats | 09:12 |
| bekks | ubuntu037: Thats just one line of the output. | 09:12 |
| ubuntu037 | shall I pastebin? | 09:12 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: if it is truely idling, the C3 percentage should be over 80% | 09:12 |

| ubuntu037 | this is the "Tunables" tab http://pastebin.com/PE0chfxa | 09:15 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: that looks fine, C6 is a deeper sleep state... but that might be the reason, because deeper sleep state == longer latencies | 09:15 |

| ubuntu037 | (I'm a programmer not a kernel guy :/ ) | 09:18 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor" | 09:19 |

| ren0v0 | ok i've asked this over and over to no response | 09:23 |
| ren0v0 | my software updater keeps telling me there are updates | 09:23 |
| ren0v0 | but i've set it to notify me "never" | 09:23 |
| cfhowlett | ren0v0, open a terminal: sudo apt-get update | nc termbin.com 9999 | 09:24 |
| cfhowlett | paste the url here. | 09:24 |
| ren0v0 | cfhowlett, what does repository lists have to do with software updater asking me to update? | 09:25 |
| ren0v0 | i have "automatically check for updates" set to *never* | 09:25 |
| cfhowlett | ren0v0, this will display exactly what is seeking the update - something that would be helpful to know | 09:26 |
| cfhowlett | ren0v0, I'd bet/hope you did not disable automatic security upgrades | 09:26 |
| ren0v0 | cfhowlett, wait, so its not possible to turn this off via GUI? (security) | 09:27 |
| cfhowlett | ren0v0, it IS possible but you are rather guessing at this point. get the information and then you'll know. sudo apt-get update ONLY displays what is requesting update. it downloads/installs nothing | 09:28 |
| ren0v0 | i can see what packages, they are security updates likely right | 09:28 |
| ren0v0 | i want to turn this off | 09:28 |
| ren0v0 | so i'll find out how, thanks | 09:28 |
| cfhowlett | ren0v0, you want to turn off SECURITY? unwise ... | 09:29 |
| ren0v0 | yes | 09:29 |
| ren0v0 | i'm in the terminal 95% of the time so its fine | 09:29 |
| TJ- | ren0v0: there's a difference between a GUI component notifying you, and actually checking for the updates. It sounds like your problem is the former ? | 09:29 |
| ren0v0 | TJ-, yup | 09:29 |
| TJ- | ren0v0: which ubuntu release, and which DE (Unity) ? | 09:30 |
| ren0v0 | sound it /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades | 09:30 |
| ren0v0 | found* | 09:30 |
| cfhowlett | nicely done! | 09:30 |
| TJ- | ren0v0: that's for *applying* updates | 09:30 |
| ren0v0 | hmm | 09:30 |
| ren0v0 | well its currently not commented out, and it doesn't "automatically" install, it asks me, so still not the right file? | 09:31 |
| TJ- | ren0v0: I'd suspect you're getting notifications due to 99update-notifier | 09:32 |
| AvatarA | huh, unattended does not ask | 09:32 |
| AvatarA | that's why it's unattended | 09:32 |
| TJ- | ren0v0: but even then, the GUI will just check the file that script touches, so the GUI component is still the issue | 09:32 |
| ren0v0 | its odd, i've been running 14.04 for ages and recently reinstalled, i dont remember ever getting these popups, ever | 09:34 |
| AvatarA | getting those popups is default behavior for ubuntu 14 | 09:35 |
| ren0v0 | there aren't even any packages to install via cli lol | 09:35 |

| ubuntu037 | sorry about that, seems my son likes to cry A LOT! | 09:51 |
| ubuntu037 | so is it less likely to be software (kernel) and more likely to be a hardware issue? | 09:54 |
| ubuntu037 | Regarding the Mobo / Firmware, they're different on both machines | 09:57 |
| TJ- | ubuntu037: which one is on older firmware? | 10:03 |

| rugsey | hey, how do i install a windows .iso on a bootable drive FROM a linux system? i'm a newbie, please help haha | 10:06 |
| cfhowlett | rugsey, short answer: you don't. get a windows machine, make your windows USB and install away | 10:08 |
| cfhowlett | rugsey, for further assistance, ask ##windows | 10:08 |
| TJ- | rugsey: if the ISO image is hybrid bootable, and you are targeting a USB mass storage device, "dd if=path/to/windows.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=100M conv=fdatasync,fsync" | 10:08 |
| rugsey | thank you very much.... | 10:09 |
| TJ- | rugsey: if you want to *execute* the windows.iso and whilst it is running, install Windows to a disk device, then use a virtual machine | 10:09 |

| autoit | hey guys! i have dual boot setup in my pc.but when i boot into ubuntu my hdd seems to make audible clicking sounds. when i opena folder i can distinctively hear it. but when i boot into windows it disappears. i have checked the smart attributes and they are all good. any help? | 10:14 |
| rafibd01717 | I am using ubuntu 14.04LTS and want to upgrade it to 15.10. How can I upgrade it? | 10:15 |
| cfhowlett | autoit, audible clicking? Nope, I wouldn't trust that hardware no matter what smart attributes is telling you. | 10:15 |
| cfhowlett | rafibd01717, 14.04 >> 14.10 >> 15.04 >> 15.10 | 10:16 |
| cfhowlett | or clean install 15.10 | 10:16 |
| bekks | autoit: so show us the smart attributes i a pastebin. | 10:16 |
| autoit | cfhowlett: it disappears in windows completely | 10:16 |
| autoit | bekks: one moment | 10:16 |
| rafibd01717 | cfhowlett: you mean I need to upgrade in this looooong way!!! | 10:17 |
| cfhowlett | rafibd01717, you asked how. I explained both options | 10:17 |
| bekks | autoit: It disappears in Windows because Windows uses different areas on your disk. | 10:17 |
| rafibd01717 | I dont want to do clean install | 10:17 |
| rafibd01717 | it would require downloading a big iso | 10:17 |
| bekks | rafibd01717: Then you need to upgrade that long way. | 10:17 |
| rafibd01717 | hm | 10:18 |
| rafibd01717 | very bad | 10:18 |
| === user is now known as Guest41186 | ||
| cfhowlett | rafibd01717, then you have to do the incremental installs I described. OR wait for 16.04 : 14.04 will directly upgrade to 16.04 | 10:18 |
| bekks | rafibd01717: And upgrading will require even a lot more downloading. | 10:18 |
| cfhowlett | and 14.04 IS still supported | 10:18 |
| MonkeyDust | rafibd01717 bith ways take a long time, choose the easiest, which is fresh install | 10:18 |
| rafibd01717 | hm | 10:18 |
| MonkeyDust | both* | 10:18 |
| rafibd01717 | actually not a good way for people from 3rd world countries. | 10:19 |
| rafibd01717 | we pay huge amount for every MB than developed country users | 10:19 |
| bekks | rafibd01717: 14.04 is supported untile 2019. | 10:19 |
| cfhowlett | rafibd01717, why do you suddenly need to upgrade? 14.04 still works and is still supported | 10:19 |
| rafibd01717 | bekks: good to know | 10:19 |
| rafibd01717 | just wanted be to updated | 10:20 |
| MonkeyDust | rafibd01717 i live in a 'rich' country and am still using 14.04 too | 10:20 |
| === Obama is now known as Guest33260 | ||
| rafibd01717 | actually I don't have any problem with 14 | 10:20 |
| cfhowlett | rafibd01717, sudo apt full-upgrade will get you updated | 10:20 |
| rafibd01717 | what does this command do actually? | 10:21 |
| cfhowlett | rafibd01717, 14.04 >>> 14.04.3 | 10:21 |
| rafibd01717 | hm | 10:21 |
| rafibd01717 | thanks | 10:21 |
| rafibd01717 | well anyone know how can i install virtualbox on ubuntu? | 10:21 |
| cfhowlett | rafibd01717, sudo apt install virtualbox | 10:22 |
| rafibd01717 | thanks guy | 10:22 |
| rafibd01717 | from .deb file what should be the command? | 10:22 |
| rafibd01717 | sudo apt-get installl something.deb? | 10:23 |
| cfhowlett | virtualbox is in the repos. why are you mucking about with out of repo debs? | 10:23 |
| rafibd01717 | because in this way I can install vbox in my another machine without downloading it again and again. | 10:24 |
| rafibd01717 | as said I need to pay huge amount for every MB | 10:24 |
| rafibd01717 | not talking about GB even in 2015 yet talking about MB | 10:24 |
| cfhowlett | rafibd01717, where did you find this .deb? | 10:24 |
| rafibd01717 | virtualbox.org provides i386.de | 10:25 |
| rafibd01717 | i386.deb | 10:25 |
| cfhowlett | rafibd01717, you have a 386 system? | 10:26 |
| rafibd01717 | I have a 32bit machine | 10:26 |
| cfhowlett | sudo dpkg -i foo.deb | 10:26 |

| ubuntu037 | Ok so the top is still at 1.00 in a rescue kernel so it's probably hardware based? | 10:30 |

| whothehellami | hi, I am not sure if this issue is hardware related but I don't think so... I have a dual boot system with win and ubuntu 15.04 and grub is starting rly slow and needs about 3 sec for recognising my input. after selecting an entry it is also loading very slow | 10:38 |
| autoit | since the first time i booted into ubuntu. it has always been like this. earlier i ignored it. but it became irritating. noise levels have not changed since when i first installed ubuntu | 10:38 |
| TJ- | autoit: that sounds like the drive is resetting. check 'dmesg' for I/O errors. | 10:39 |
| autoit | there seem to be none. | 10:40 |
| rafibd01717 | I think I need to clean my old virtualbox first right? | 10:41 |
| rafibd01717 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/13392254/ | 10:41 |
| autoit | the sound comes when there is a read/write op. because when i open a folder i can hear it or when i save a file | 10:41 |
| autoit | MonkeyDust: anything? | 10:42 |
| rafibd01717 | so how can I remove my old virtualbox? | 10:43 |
| wmorri | rafibd01717, have you tried to use sudo apt-get autoremove virtualbox? | 10:44 |
| rafibd01717 | no. trying | 10:44 |
| MonkeyDust | autoit is it old hardware, maybe? which windows is on it? | 10:45 |
| wmorri | whothehellami, does it happen with you choose both ubuntu and windows options? | 10:45 |
| rafibd01717 | wmorri: is this command used to remove all packages installed from remote? | 10:45 |
| autoit | its win8. hardware is not old 2 years at max. plus there is the fact as soon as i boot into windows it goes away | 10:46 |
| TJ- | autoit: OK, I think you'll need to use hdparm to set the head-retract timeout, or disable the agressive power management | 10:47 |
| wmorri | rafibd01717, you can use it to remove all packages that are no longer needed or to remove one package and the dependencies as far a I know. | 10:48 |
| TJ- | autoit: I've seen these issues occasionally with some drives, not quite sure what triggers it | 10:48 |
| autoit | i read about setting the power management to 255. but i was afraid it will affect normal drive operation in windows as well | 10:48 |
| rafibd01717 | hm | 10:48 |
| rafibd01717 | wmorri: do I need to restart pc after removing packages? | 10:49 |
| wmorri | rafibd01717, no. | 10:49 |
| whothehellami | wmorri, I need to check this. | 10:49 |
| wmorri | whothehellami, okay | 10:49 |
| autoit | will using hdparm not affect drive operations in windows | 10:49 |
| wmorri | rafibd01717, if you need an exact definition for autoremove just run the command man apt-get and scroll down. | 10:50 |
| rafibd01717 | hm | 10:50 |
| MonkeyDust | autoit ubuntu and windows work independentally, unluss you used wubi | 10:51 |
| MonkeyDust | unless* | 10:51 |
| autoit | but the hard disk is same. and i just checked power management seems to be off for my hdd | 10:51 |
| amburger | is it possible to make compton show shadow only for popup windows, like reverse exclude-shadow setting | 10:52 |
| whothehellami | wmorri, after selecting windows inside the grub menu I see a screen with the grub colour for about 4-5 sec | 10:53 |
| whothehellami | wmorri, this should not take that long? | 10:53 |
| wmorri | whothehellami, not normally it should boot right away. | 10:54 |
| whothehellami | wmorri. also I am wondering about the time needed before the selected entry moves if I move with the arrow keys the first time | 10:56 |

| whothehellami | wmorri, I don't know if this is a problem but inside syslog one of the first lines is "ureadahead[213]: ureadahead:/etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-352_hybrid.conf: file or directory not found" | 11:32 |
| whothehellami | wmorri, but I purged nvidia* some time ago | 11:32 |
| Sohron | hello fellow ubuntuites :p | 11:33 |
| wmorri | whothehellami, are you still using the nvidia card? | 11:33 |
| Sohron | is anyone here having playback problems with spotify-client? | 11:34 |
| Sohron | like a song in the middle of a playlist seemingly randomly just won't start to play... | 11:34 |
| Sohron | play/pause doesn't help at least | 11:35 |
| quest9 | hi | 11:35 |
| Sohron | i know the linux version is just a preview, but still | 11:36 |
| whothehellami | wmorri, no drivers are installed so I don't think so. I wanted to install one but after that I got a black screen after rebooting so I've purged the nvidia stuff. | 11:36 |
| Sohron | whothehellami: can you get to single-user mode with nvidia drivers installed? if so i have fixed some nvidia issues by reinstalling the drivers... | 11:37 |
| whothehellami | wmorri, as far as I can remember I had this grub problem after a fresh installation of ubuntu (and windows) | 11:37 |
| whothehellami | Sohron, sry I don't know what exactly u mean with "single-user mode with nvidia drivers installed" | 11:38 |
| wmorri | Sohron, I think that you answered your own question saying that it is a preview. things will break. | 11:39 |
| Sohron | wmorri: yeps | 11:40 |
| CronX3r | d | 11:40 |
| jibon_ | hm | 11:40 |
| Sohron | whothehellami: you can boot to single user by editing the grub commandline before boot | 11:40 |
| Sohron | whothehellami: it's a non-graphical root shell | 11:41 |
| Sohron | whothehellami: so proprietary nvidia drivers won't be in the way, at least i've had it working | 11:42 |
| whothehellami | Sohron, stopping the X server is not sufficient? | 11:43 |
| wmorri | Sohron, so i have been trying to help whothehellami with his really slow load times out of grub. He wasn't sure if the nvidia message might have something to do with it. I just wanted to get you up to speed. | 11:44 |
| Sohron | whothehellami: i've had no luck doing anything when nvidia drivers are making trouble and booting to X | 11:44 |
| Sohron | wmorri: ah so, okay | 11:45 |
| Sohron | whothehellami: i don't think grub knows anything about nvidia drivers | 11:45 |
| whothehellami | Sohron, yes I think the nvidia driver problem has nothing to do with the loading time after selecting something inside grub. especially if this is also happening if I want to start windows | 11:46 |
| Sohron | indeed whothehellami | 11:47 |
| rgautam98 | When i reboot my pc, it tells me that there is an error in the / directory in the tmp directory. Can anybody tell me what this is. | 11:48 |

| rgautam98 | It says that there is an in the / directory | 11:49 |
| MonkeyDust | rgautam98 the exact error message can help find a solution | 11:49 |
| rgautam98 | And when i hit f it says there is an error in /tmp directory | 11:50 |
| rgautam98 | Thats all it said | 11:50 |
| Sohron | hmmm... | 11:50 |
| rgautam98 | Now my pc is taking a long time to boot | 11:50 |
| Sohron | rgautam98: is /tmp a separate partition? | 11:50 |

| Sohron | well, i've not met this problem rgautam98 and the error message is very vague :( | 11:51 |
| rgautam98 | I have restarted it | 11:51 |
| rgautam98 | The pc | 11:51 |
| wmorri | okay rgautam98 | 11:52 |
| rgautam98 | It is checking for errors now | 11:52 |
| wmorri | whothehellami, to get back to your issue, I would keep looking for anything that has to do with grub or booting in syslog. | 11:53 |
| fsociety[00]dat | hi #ubuntu :) is it possible to export system-wide font setting from an other Ubuntu based distro and use it for other distros? ( for Xubuntu example ) | 11:54 |
| wmorri | fsociety[00]dat, you want to use the ubuntu font on Xubuntu? | 11:54 |
| cfhowlett | fsociety[00]dat, you can install fonts to buntu distros | 11:55 |
| fsociety[00]dat | wmorri: no, I want to use Trisquel GNU/Linux system-wide font setting for Xubuntu. | 11:55 |

| rgautam98 | It is working fine now | 11:55 |
| === rfinley is now known as average_guy | ||
| rgautam98 | Even i find the error a little vague | 11:56 |
| rgautam98 | But thank you for your support | 11:56 |
| fsociety[00]dat | cfhowlett: to install is not important for me. settings are important. | 11:56 |
| TJ- | whothehellami: the best way to debug that is to first identify if the issue is with GRUB loading the vmlinuz and initrd.img kernel files into memory, or if the issue is caused whilst the kernel is initialising, or the initrd.img scripts are running. | 11:56 |
| cfhowlett | fsociety[00]dat, install the font. edit your settings. done. | 11:56 |
| TJ- | whothehellami: to do that, edit the kernel command-line in GRUB and remove any "quiet splash" and add "debug" so the kernel provides lots of feedback on the console. | 11:57 |
| whothehellami | TJ-, ok I'll do that | 11:59 |
| fsociety[00]dat | cfhowlett: if I do this manually screen font qualities and sizes not seem same. I have small netbook screen and especially firefox fonts are the best I have ever seen in Trisquel GNU/Linux . | 12:00 |
| cfhowlett | fsociety[00]dat, so install those fonts ... | 12:00 |
| fsociety[00]dat | cfhowlett: thanks | 12:00 |
| cfhowlett | fsociety[00]dat, but pretty sure yo can't install settings from a foreign distro | 12:01 |
| fsociety[00]dat | cfhowlett: Trisquel GNU/Linux is Ubuntu based and FSF supported distro, you know. | 12:02 |
| cfhowlett | fsociety[00]dat, true ... | 12:02 |

| taavi90 | Hello. My screen goes off after i lock my computer..how can i set it to stay on permamently? | 12:24 |
| loa | taavi90, change this it setting, where power managment i think. | 12:26 |
| taavi90 | loa : it doesnt help. | 12:26 |
| wmorri | taavi90, I think you can change that in the brightness & lock. | 12:26 |
| loa | strange. | 12:27 |
| taavi90 | wmorri : yeah, i tried that too. It doesnt help | 12:27 |
| taavi90 | I googled and found various of options | 12:27 |
| taavi90 | Still nothing | 12:27 |
| taavi90 | I´m on 14.04 | 12:27 |
| whothehellami | TJ-, wmorri, I've added 'debug' and removed 'quiet spalsh'. I think that the IBM TrackPoint needs some time... | 12:28 |
| wmorri | taavi90, if you set your screen to never turn off, and your lock to say 5 minutes that doesn't work. | 12:28 |
| loa | taavi90, https://askubuntu.com/questions/15520/how-can-i-tell-ubuntu-to-do-nothing-when-i-close-my-laptop-lid | 12:29 |
| loa | ah i missed again. | 12:29 |
| taavi90 | I dont have laptop...i have PC | 12:29 |
| rgautam98 | taavi90: you can do it in the following way | 12:30 |
| rgautam98 | go to system settings | 12:30 |
| wmorri | whothehellami, you have moved beyond my skill level. | 12:30 |
| rgautam98 | go to brightness and lock | 12:30 |
| taavi90 | rgautam98 : yes.. | 12:31 |
| rgautam98 | in the tab "Turn screen off when inactive for" | 12:31 |
| whothehellami | wmorri, ok. anyway thanks for helping | 12:32 |

| taavi90 | rgautam98 : i do have it on never | 12:32 |
| rgautam98 | tavi90: and still the screen turns off ? | 12:33 |
| wmorri | whothehellami, wait for TJ- or MonkeyDust and they might have more information than I. Hope you figure it out. | 12:33 |
| === Piper-Off is now known as Monthrect | ||
| TJ- | whothehellami: was there a long pause during kernel start-up then? | 12:37 |
| whothehellami | TJ-, is there a way to step through the start-up process? | 12:38 |
| === andrea is now known as Guest94955 | ||
| TJ- | whothehellami: not easily, no. When the kernel is discovering hardware that's all automatic. | 12:38 |
| taavi90 | rgautam98 : yes | 12:39 |
| taavi90 | rgautam98 : it doesnt work | 12:39 |
| whothehellami | TJ-, after changing to debug and booting. I think what took longest was the TrackPoint thing. I'll copy related dmesg output.. | 12:39 |
| taavi90 | after i lock my screen it immedinately starts to fade | 12:39 |
| TJ- | whothehellami: the kernel initialises the hardware, then executes the /init shell script in the initialramfs (initrd.img file) which ensures the root file-system is available and mounted, and then it pivots to the root file-system and executes the /sbin/init as process ID 1, which brings the system up fully | 12:40 |
| theptr | hi someone who nows how to make the icons on ubuntu desktop 14.04 by default smaller ? i found some guides but non of them work | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | Hey all | 12:49 |
| MonkeyDust | theptr you can do it in dconf-editor | 12:49 |
| whothehellami | TJ-, http://pastebin.com/PCJ6qCXG with quiet spalsh I see a 'violet' screen after selecting an entry also after selecting windows. I can see this screen for a few seconds before login screen appears or windows loading screen what made me thought that this is not as it should be. with 'debug' it seems like the TrackPoint causes that issue because this takes some seconds before I can login | 12:51 |

| MrKeuner | hi, using LTS I have to enter my private key pass each time I need to use my key. How can I have my system ask it only once each login? | 13:28 |
| Li | rory: I tried but it doesn't recognize the usb drive | 13:28 |
| Li | s | 13:29 |
| MonkeyDust | MrKeuner what's the difference between a key and a private key? | 13:29 |
| rory | Li: so you (a) formatted as ntfs, (b) selected the "show all drives" option in UNetbootin ? | 13:29 |
| MonkeyDust | MrKeuner key to do or use what? | 13:30 |
| MrKeuner | key is private key | 13:31 |
| vi2nano | I could never get Unetbootin to work properly for me so I've learned to live without it | 13:32 |
| MrKeuner | for instance I have my remote server do rsa key authentication and if I login 5 times, I am asked for rsa key pass 5 times | 13:32 |
| MonkeyDust | MrKeuner you mean ssh? | 13:32 |
| MrKeuner | MonkeyDust, yes | 13:33 |
| vi2nano | bootable iso's generally have their own bootloader in the image so you shouldn't need to install grub or other bootloader with one of those tools. | 13:33 |
| vi2nano | You can just unmount the drive and remount with the -w option and dd the file to the drive | 13:33 |
| Li | are there any images upload sites than this imgur? | 13:34 |
| MonkeyDust | MrKeuner i guess you have to enter your password for sudo and then the remote password... an rsa key should make you able to login over ssh without ssh-key | 13:34 |
| Li | rory: yes .. unetbootin doesn't display any connected usb drives | 13:35 |
| Li | rory: even though they are appearing in the file browser normally | 13:35 |
| === llorephie1 is now known as llorephie | ||
| Li | rory: check this screenshot http://prntscr.com/958pvt | 13:36 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: sounds like you need yo have ssh-agent running | 13:36 |
| Li | if choose type hard drive then the drive combobox is enabled .. otherwise disabled | 13:37 |
| MonkeyDust | MrKeuner http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Use-RSA-Key-for-SSH-Authentication-38599.shtml | 13:37 |
| MrKeuner | TJ-, I think so, do I change some /etc file to run bash that way each time? | 13:37 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: A regular install should enable ssh-agent for the log-in session automatically | 13:37 |
| MrKeuner | TJ-, are you on LTS? | 13:38 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: you may need to call ssh-add once to cache the private key's pass-phrase | 13:38 |
| vi2nano | Li: have to tried to just unmount and remount with the -w option | 13:38 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: I'm using 15.10 and 14.04 here | 13:38 |
| MrKeuner | oh, you mean regular ssh-agent install or, regular LTS install? | 13:39 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: as in any Ubuntu install should install, and enable, ssh-agent for log-in sessions, whether at a console or via a display manager X session | 13:39 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: check if its running to begin with: "pgrep ssh-agent" | 13:40 |
| Li | vi2nano: no | 13:40 |
| Li | vi2nano: I mounted with remount,rw | 13:40 |
| vi2nano | Li: I would try to umount and mkdir like /mnt/usbdrive and mount -w /dev/sdc | 13:41 |
| vi2nano | Li: mkdir as user not as sudo | 13:42 |
| MrKeuner | TJ-, this is a clean LTS install and not an upgrade from earlier version. pgrep ssh-agent returns null | 13:42 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: hmmm, is it a server or desktop install? | 13:42 |
| MrKeuner | may there was an error I may have missed in install logs? This is a desktop install | 13:42 |
| MonkeyDust | bbl | 13:43 |
| MrKeuner | what if apt-get reinstall ssh-agent? which package is that? openssh-client? | 13:44 |
| AbuDhar | can I remove the zeitgeist-datahub safely? | 13:44 |
| AbuDhar | I don't need Unity btw. | 13:44 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: The X session should execute /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90x11-common_ssh-agent | 13:44 |
| rory | AbuDhar: if in doubt, you can do sudo apt-get -s remove zeitgeist-datahub | 13:45 |
| rory | AbuDhar: the -s is for "simulate" | 13:45 |
| AbuDhar | oh let me try that. | 13:45 |
| rory | AbuDhar: It will show you what would be done. You can pastebin it here and we can double-check | 13:45 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: ssh-agent is part of ssh-client, along with ssh itself | 13:45 |
| MrKeuner | TJ-, I have such a file but it seems like it is 644 | 13:45 |
| AbuDhar | Remv zeitgeist [0.9.14-0ubuntu4.1] | 13:45 |
| MrKeuner | so not executable... | 13:45 |
| AbuDhar | Remv zeitgeist-datahub [0.9.14-0ubuntu4.1] | 13:45 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: that's fine | 13:45 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: read the file - it is sourced not executed | 13:45 |
| rory | AbuDhar: Sounds like you're fine then, it's not going to remove 1000 other packages along with it :) | 13:46 |
| AbuDhar | hehe fine. | 13:46 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: Are you starting the X server manually, or letting the lightdm display manager handle it? | 13:46 |
| MrKeuner | TJ-, I am not starting it manually. Default disp manager does that but I use gnomeshell | 13:47 |
| MrKeuner | can that be the reason? | 13:47 |
| Li | vi2nano: it doesn't allow me to mkdir into /mnt as a user | 13:47 |
| Li | mkdir: cannot create directory ‘usb’: Permission denied | 13:47 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: I wouldn't have thought so, since it is supposed to be started by the Xsession facility, and as far as I am aware, gnome-shell wouldn't avoid that | 13:47 |
| MrKeuner | actually there is another papercut I noticed with this install. I wonder if they are related. waking up from sleep system wakes up unlocked... | 13:48 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: maybe it does though; maybe there is some environment variable that is read by that 90x11-common_ssh-agent script that prevents it starting | 13:48 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: I think the key part is "if has_option use-ssh-agent; then" ... "use-ssh-agent" being the operative bit | 13:49 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: I find that via grep: "/etc/X11/Xsession.options:8:use-ssh-agent" | 13:50 |
| vi2nano | Li: Make it somewhere else then. Doesn't matter where as long as you know where it is. | 13:52 |
| vi2nano | I suppose it wouldn't matter as you'll have to mount as root | 13:52 |
| vi2nano | you could probably mkdir as root and have it work find | 13:52 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: is there any record of it running in the environment: "env | grep SSH_AGENT_PID" | 13:52 |
| MrKeuner | TJ-, I found the line you mentioned but it is not commented out or something | 13:53 |
| MrKeuner | env | grep SSH_AGENT_PID returns null | 13:53 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: OK, so its not that it started and exited early then, it just hasn't started | 13:53 |
| rory | I have a bunch of files called page1.jpg, page2.jpg ... page60.jpg. When I do stuff in bash with them using *, it iterates in alphabetical order (1, 10, 11, etc) | 13:54 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: which suggests that Xsession isn't being used for some reason | 13:54 |
| rory | How can I get bash to enumerate * in NUMERICAL order? | 13:54 |
| TJ- | rory: pre-sort the list | 13:54 |
| rory | in this case I'm trying to do "convert *.jpg out.pdf" | 13:55 |
| rory | How would I pre-sort it in this case? | 13:55 |
| vi2nano | rory: are they all the same filename besides the number? | 13:55 |
| rory | oh ls | 13:55 |
| rory | yes vi2nano | 13:55 |
| vi2nano | page*.jpg | 13:56 |
| MrKeuner | TJ-, How can I check if it is used? pgrep -i xsession? | 13:56 |
| Li | Do you now what is this error I get "sudo: unable to resolve host myUserName" | 13:56 |
| rory | vi2nano: same deal | 13:56 |
| rory | vi2nano: I need to to be in numerical order not alphabetical | 13:56 |
| rory | vi2nano: in alphabetical order, it goes 1, 10, 11, 12... 2, 20, 21... | 13:56 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: no, Xsession just calls scripts to configure the session | 13:56 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: do you have "/usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop" ? | 13:58 |
| MrKeuner | I do | 13:59 |
| vi2nano | rory: try 'ls -v' | 13:59 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: looking at the packages, gnome-shell depends on gnome-session, which installs that file, which I *think* is what allows gnome to be listed on the greeter screen | 13:59 |
| EriC^^ | rory: convert $(for i in {1..9}; do echo page$i.jpg; for j in {0..9}; do echo page$i$j.jpg; done; done) out.pdf | 13:59 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: what does the file contain? can you pastebin it? | 13:59 |
| MrKeuner | sure, just a sec please | 13:59 |
| EriC^^ | something like that could work | 13:59 |
| Li | vi2nano .. rory : unetbootin is working now and able to see the usb | 13:59 |
| rory | yeah EriC^^ I was gradually converging on that one, you've saved me some time, thanks | 14:00 |
| Li | the problem was due to ntfs partition .. unetbootin requires fat32 | 14:00 |

| EriC^^ | rory: np | 14:00 |
| MrKeuner | TJ-, http://pastebin.com/AsruAiEE | 14:00 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: the only thing I can think is to look for clues in logs. The only ones that may have something will be under /var/log/lightdm/ I think, or possibly in $HOME/.xsession-errors | 14:03 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: If this is a vanilla install, with no additional PPA/manually installed packages, and no custom configuration, then I'm at a loss as to why the Xsession isn't seeming to use the ssh-agent | 14:04 |
| MrKeuner | TJ-, thank you so much. I'll check and let you know if I find out | 14:06 |
| TJ- | MrKeuner: something you could do. Add the line "echo 'starting ssh-agent' >> /tmp/ssh-agent.log" to the top of /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90x11-common_ssh-agent then try another log-in. If that log file isn't created you know that script isn't executed. If the log-file appears, but ssh-agent isn't running, you know the "if has_option use-ssh-agent ..." isn't triggered | 14:07 |

| nonamae | Ok I made a stripped volume on two SSDs on lvm2, but I am not sure it is now faster or not. Not sure how to test. Wit ' dd if=/dev/urandom of=testfileR bs=4k count=10000; sync;' the speed is the same 7,8 MB/s. With hdparm the Timing cached reads: is about the same 4257.12 MB/sec, but the Timing buffered disk reads is much faster on the lvm. sda:470 lvm:870 MB/sec | 14:31 |
| nonamae | So will it be faster like this? | 14:32 |
| nonamae | http://pastebin.com/LyEafJeB Here is how I was doing it | 14:33 |
| bekks | nonamae: And whats the actual issue in one sentence? | 14:42 |
| bekks | nonamae: using your bs and count values, it implies (for a sane benchmark), that you have 40000k RAM only. | 14:42 |
| zidsal | would anyone mind giving me a hand on getting a broadcom wireless card working? I try installing bcmwl-kernel-source however the command line gets stuck on DKMS: install complete | 14:44 |
| BluesKaj | zidsal, install dkms | 14:46 |
| nonamae | bekks, issue is that I am not sure that now it is faster | 14:46 |
| motaka2 | hello, I am trying to upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 but running sudo update-manager -d doesnt show the upgrade button in opening window | 14:46 |
| nonamae | bekks, if I made it right | 14:47 |
| bekks | nonamae: First, you have to benchmark your disks, not your RAM, as you did. | 14:47 |
| nonamae | now I am testing with dd if=/dev/zero of=./largefile bs=64k count=100000 and the result is 6553600000 bytes (6,6 GB) copied, 7,2175 s, 908 MB/s | 14:47 |
| zidsal | BluesKaj I already have dkms should I reinstall it? | 14:47 |
| bekks | nonamae: why are you changing bs now? | 14:48 |
| nonamae | against 3276800000 bytes (3,3 GB) copied, 7,82616 s, 419 MB/s so I thing I can be happy now :) | 14:48 |
| bekks | nonamae: you are comparing cars and apple trees. | 14:48 |
| BluesKaj | zidsal, no need to reinstall, which broadcom chip ? | 14:48 |
| nonamae | bekks, I dont know what I am doing then | 14:49 |
| zidsal | finding out now BluesKaj | 14:49 |
| bekks | nonamae: Yeah, I told you what to do :) | 14:49 |
| bekks | nonamae: use bs=4k and a count value that will result in a total data about 2x of your RAM. | 14:50 |
| nonamae | bekks, ok | 14:50 |
| bekks | nonamae: That will give you comparable results actually. | 14:50 |
| zidsal | BluesKaj I can't seem to see what model it is from doing lshw -C network | 14:53 |
| BluesKaj | zidsal, try lspci | 14:55 |
| nitesh_ | hi | 14:57 |
| motaka2 | hello, I am trying to upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 but running sudo update-manager -d doesnt show the upgrade button in opening windo | 14:57 |
| cfhowlett | motaka2, use the command line: sudo apt-get update && sudo do-release-upgrade | 14:58 |
| motaka2 | cfhowlett: wouldnt I get in trouble using that ? | 14:59 |
| cfhowlett | motaka2, same same as your gui, just not as pretty | 14:59 |
| nonamae | bekks, 8,2 GB copied (my ram is 4GB) lvm: 660 504 318 495 321 476 317 MB/s against sda: 353 313 290 312 MB/s | 14:59 |
| motaka2 | cfhowlett: what does failed to download repository information means? | 15:00 |
| cfhowlett | motaka2, could be your mirror is offline | 15:00 |
| nonamae | bekks, results in lvm are very diverse, but seams to be faster anyway | 15:01 |
| nitesh_ | i have installed 14.04 | 15:01 |
| nitesh_ | my wifi connection keeps on breaking | 15:01 |
| nonamae | bekks, ok reading speed is 1,0 GB/s vs 531 MB/s | 15:03 |
| nonamae | I am happpy :) | 15:03 |
| nonamae | thx all | 15:03 |

| monod | SchrodingersScat, will grub be correctly configured for this setup? | 15:07 |
| SchrodingersScat | monod: right, depends on your setup and what you're planning. You can tell it what location to put that on install. | 15:08 |
| motaka2 | cfhowlett: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13396549/ | 15:08 |

| cfhowlett | MrCeeIII, avconv | 15:19 |
| cfhowlett | it's in the libav-tools package | 15:19 |
| bindi | why not ffmpeg? | 15:20 |
| SchrodingersScat | practically the same difference | 15:21 |
| TJ- | depends which release you're using; we've moved back to ffmpeg | 15:21 |
| cfhowlett | bindi, has ffmpeg returned to the repos yet? if so, yes. if not, avconv is the (temporary) replacement | 15:21 |
| MrCeeIII | i cant get audio from my wmv files | 15:22 |
| cfhowlett | MrCeeIII, open in audacity, it'll pull the audio | 15:22 |
| MrCeeIII | is it in the the Ubunto software center? avconv | 15:22 |
| motaka2 | cfhowlett: none of them are there | 15:23 |
| MrCeeIII | its a video file that has no sound | 15:23 |
| cfhowlett | MrCeeIII, libav-tools | 15:23 |

| cfhowlett | motaka2, do this: lsb_release -a | pastebinit | 15:37 |

| chano | @SlashArash the other recomendation is to exit out of X - then do the same things again sometimes the package manager locks your ability to update | 15:42 |

| MrCeeIII | let me try it on my windows machine | 15:55 |
| monsune | cfhowlett, TJ- so possible that could fix my files in proxmox... | 15:55 |
| TJ- | monsune: config files won't be replaced unless you add options to force that | 15:56 |
| monsune | there is some crazy mess with libs or whatever, i can't even use pveversion now | 15:56 |
| cfhowlett | monsune, I know nothing about proxmox ... sorry | 15:56 |
| monsune | cfhowlett ok but thank you for the hint with reinstallation | 15:56 |
| monsune | TJ- i was going to ask about that | 15:56 |
| SchrodingersScat | MrCeeIII: just going off the info I saw, avconv recognized an audio track within the file, presumably after you used -strict experimental it converted whatever was there to aac, unless there were errors. | 15:57 |
| monsune | TJ- so it shouldn't touch anything like configs and reset my openvz machines? | 15:57 |

| anglebert | hello everyone. I'm running lubuntu 15.10. I'm trying to change default theme and icons and even default font. I read that I'll I needed to do was create a .themes directory in home folder. | 16:23 |
| MrCeeIII | still | 16:23 |
| MrCeeIII | ther | 16:23 |
| anglebert | But, when I open lxappearance for customize look and feel and go to widget, it only makes a slight change to the windows. Hardly noticeable. This theme I downloaded is gtk-2.0+, so I'm wondering if maybe I'm shouldn't be using gtk-2.0 themes. | 16:24 |
| TJ- | tachyondecay: sounds strange; why would it neeed a re-format and re-install? | 16:28 |
| tachyondecay | TJ-: You helped me on Thursday. I'm the one with the buggy firmware and Intel SRT | 16:31 |
| TJ- | tachyondecay: oh yeah! I'd forgotten :) | 16:34 |
| game0 | guys, I have installed postgresql on my ubuntu | 16:34 |
| tachyondecay | TJ-: Haha, I'm not surprised. I'm sure you see a lot of people in and out of here. | 16:34 |
| TJ- | tachyondecay: didn't think disabling the SRT required a reinstall though, from what I had read | 16:34 |
| game0 | and I want to connect to my server | 16:34 |
| game0 | using pgadmin tool | 16:34 |
| game0 | can someone help me | 16:35 |
| tachyondecay | TJ-: I can't find a way to disable SRT. :-/ | 16:35 |
| game0 | I'm using ubuntu server 15.10 | 16:35 |
| TJ- | tachyondecay: typical Windows :D | 16:35 |
| tachyondecay | So I can switch my SSD from "RAID" mode to "AHCI" in the BIOS | 16:35 |
| tachyondecay | But that will break Windows. Which I'm fine with doing, just not this weekend. ;) So I want to try virtualizing Ubuntu, temporarily | 16:36 |
| anglebert | upon further sleuthing, I think I found what I'm looking for: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Theming --> [SOLVED] | 16:36 |
| TJ- | tachyondecay: if the hypervisor will allow you to attach partitions as devices, you should be able to do it | 16:36 |
| tachyondecay | Is that built into Windows 10? | 16:37 |
| tachyondecay | I was going to use VirtualBox | 16:37 |
| tachyondecay | But I'm having trouble locating a VM image for 15.10 | 16:37 |
| TJ- | tachyondecay: Something like VirtualBox or VMWare | 16:38 |
| === user is now known as Guest88448 | ||
| TJ- | tachyondecay: you would install from the standard ISO image file, mounted on the VM Guest as a DVD | 16:38 |
| tachyondecay | Ah, I see now | 16:41 |
| tachyondecay | And I think I've found a guide for how to do it | 16:41 |
| tachyondecay | That was the part I was missing, because I've only ever used premade VM images before. | 16:41 |
| tachyondecay | OK, let's give this a try! | 16:42 |

| VanessaNaire | I'm running Ubuntu 15.10 on a Macbook7,1. It keeps hanging when I attempt a reboot. It was doing the same thing on shutdown, but editing the GRUB config with this GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi=off" fixed that. I still can't seem to figure out how to do essentially the same thing for reboots as well. Any ideas? | 16:44 |
| tachyondecay | TJ-: Hmm, I've found a very recent forum thread talking about my problem on the exact same machine as me. This post seems to indicate I might be able to restore access to my Windows install without reformatting after I switch to AHCI mode: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2301071&page=4&p=13389664#post13389664 Would you mind just skimming through that to see if there's any gotchas I'm missing? | 16:46 |

| cdk_ | yes and within that directory i dont see the xorg.config file | 16:51 |
| === gustavo_ is now known as ghs | ||
| TJ- | tachyondecay: That does look promising, although some comments later say they suffer BSODs | 16:51 |
| OerHeks | switch to console mode: Alt+Ctrl+F1. kill x server: sudo service lightdm stop # generate new xorg.conf file: sudo X -configure -- this will create xorg.conf.new file in your current dir. rename and move: sudo mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf. | 16:51 |
| OerHeks | = manually method | 16:52 |
| OerHeks | but overclocking, good luck. | 16:52 |
| cdk_ | ok but bthen it shows up with an xorg.config and one that is a back up with nvidia org in its name then xserver trys to use both | 16:54 |
| OerHeks | xorg.config ?? | 16:54 |
| OerHeks | oh boy | 16:55 |

| earl--- | So asking for a friend. During installation, he formated the NTFS windows partition as EXT4 by accident. Can he recover his data or is he screwed | 16:56 |

| MonkeyDust | earl--- recover | 16:57 |

| tachyondecay | TJ-: Thanks for taking a look. I think that's a risk worth taking; worst comes to worst I have to backup the Ubuntu install and then do the total reformat/repartitionin/reinstall Windows. But I might not have to! | 16:58 |
| VanessaNaire | Any ideas on my rebooting issue? | 16:58 |
| VanessaNaire | I've read that there's a field for reboot on the old GRUB1 config that might have fixed it. Is there a GRUB2 equivalent? | 16:58 |
| darkxploit | /etc/default/grub | 16:59 |
| earl--- | Ok. So the data is basically gone. Thanks though guys, figured it was worth asking. | 17:00 |

| VanessaNaire | Though remember, you'll need to set the second Ubuntu box to a non-default ssh | 17:09 |

| egggs | the restricted extras is a touchy subject, if u want a true free machine don't install it. it installs things that are not free. | 17:12 |

| JaredFTW | I'd recommend sending the card to broadcome for repairs, or buying a new one, you might have to buy a USB wi-fi dongle until either one comes | 18:14 |
| dbeginer | no i didn't do anything like that | 18:15 |

| JaredFTW | qwesd: are there several programs starting up on startup, like Skype, Steam, etc? | 18:17 |
| zidsal | JaredFTW the correct package to install to fix this is bcmwl-kernel-source or b43-fwcutter or firmware-b43-installer depending on what broadcome card you have however none of them work which makes me suspect something like a blacklist | 18:17 |
| zidsal | dbeginer I'll find you the command I had to run in a second | 18:18 |

| MichaelTun | flyn4x4: installing doesn't mean it would happen. It is possible something happened in the System Settings or maybe via Ubuntu Tweak. Have you messed with those at all? | 19:18 |

I tried it with the Startup Disk Creator and the dd-command and even used 3 different USB sticks -- but to no avail. With either method the USB is either not even recognized during bootup or i get a black screen with nothing more than "boot error". I can't find any specific information online so I wanted t | 19:39 |
| globalist | o ask if any of you had some ideas? :) | 19:39 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: That would be ideal... So... What do we start out with? | 19:39 |
| AlexQ | globalist: Have you tried reading an image of the disk (after writing with dd) and verifying the md5 and/or sha1 checksum? | 19:40 |
| Bashing-om | the_count: ' sudo apt-get remove steam' is the start .. if that completes .. ' sudo apt-get 0f install ' . See what Xorg looks like . O do expect to have to re-install some of the HWE components . | 19:41 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: And another thing about completely reinstalling Ubuntu, I'm still learning the in's and out's of the file structure/os and it's not as straingtforeward for me as is windows as it currently stands | 19:41 |
| globalist | AlexQ: Actually I didn't (and not once has that been necessary with any Ubuntu flavor for me) but you're right, that's something I have to check out! | 19:41 |

| VictoriaXOXO | Q: Is it possible to install (try) another desktop environment WITHOUT also installing duplicates of all software? :/ | 19:42 |
| AlexQ | globalist: When reading an ISO filesystem directly from the pendrive device to file using dd, you will most likely need to specify the exact amount of bytes to copy (exact to the original .iso REAL filesize), otherwise you'll end up reading the whole device I guess. | 19:42 |

| the_count | Bashing-om: Why is this? I got two minutes to wait untill my current backup od home is done | 19:45 |
| Bashing-om | AlexQ: take a look at http://paste.ubuntu.com/13402910/ . This system is HWE enabled .. and we rip the heart out of Xorg . | 19:46 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: Is the heart of xorg not already removed, or does the system think they need removed when they are really nessesary? | 19:48 |

| tachyondecay | I want 40 GB for Windows, 170 GB for a shared data partition, and the rest for Ubuntu | 20:28 |

| NicoHood | I wanted to add a custom (ubuntu) keyboard shortcut whith two commands. both of them work as a single shortcut, but combined with || not. In a terminal the command works correct, seems that the key shortcut doesnt like it. any ideas why? killall hyperiond || /usr/bin/hyperiond /etc/hyperion.config.json > /tmp/hyperionlog | 20:29 |
| tachyondecay | bekks: OK, but it shouldn't need 120 GB | 20:29 |
| AlexQ | NicoHood: Because || means or, so the second will execute only if the first fails (returns non-zero value). Use ; or && | 20:29 |
| mgolisch | NicoHood: i dont think that kind of stuff works, write a script with that in it and call it from your shortcut | 20:30 |
| mgolisch | AlexQ: that makes sense, only start thing if kill failed to kill it(its not started= | 20:30 |
| NicoHood | but && only works if the first was successful. I guess I am missunderstanding something here? | 20:30 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: it completed succesfully | 20:31 |

| tachyondecay | I get that having a separate data partition is good for doing clean installs. | 20:31 |
| NicoHood | and how can I execute both, no matter which fails and which not? | 20:32 |
| AlexQ | NicoHood: Just try ; as a separator | 20:32 |

| mgolisch | -the | 20:40 |
| OnTheRocks | i think its fixed now | 20:40 |

| the_count | Bashing-om: I know something strange is wrong because some of my shortcuts work, others do not... I fail to understand. | 20:48 |
| globalist | VictoriaXOXO: I have no idea as to what exactly it means... A wild guess: It's trying to start the Samba service but it's getting overwritten since the system is shutting down...

| globalist | mothership: I take it you are trying to install chromium? did you update your sources list before trying to install? | 20:51 |
| VictoriaXOXO | globalist: Oh, okay. I'll bookmark it. Thanks. | 20:51 |
| globalist | xela2244: what exactly do you mean by "black screen"? I'm on Ubuntu Gnome as well | 20:52 |

| elichai2 | in ubuntu archive whats `all` version means? | 20:54 |
| elichai2 | (I know what `amd64` and `i386` means but what `all` means?) | 20:54 |
| === Monthrect is now known as Piper-Off | ||
| globalist | xela2244: Oh, i see! Well, I had that issue as well, but some update along the way seems to have fixed that! have you upgraded your system recently? | 20:55 |
| mcphail | elichai2: usually an app written in an interpreted language, so will run on any architecture (e.g. a bash script) | 20:55 |
| elichai2 | so whats better to install? architecture specific version or `all` version? | 20:56 |
| xela2244 | globalist: yes | 20:56 |
| mcphail | elichai2: there shouldn't be a choice | 20:56 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: Do you think we could install a kernel the next level underneath the current one, completeley remove the current + everything, and then try reinstalling it without obstructions? Would it be possible to do something like that? See. Since the origional kernel works better for the touchpad than this one, except for the fact that it jumps around, I wonder if there is some other problem there. Or even go back even farther to something in the midd | 20:56 |
| elichai2 | mcphail, I want to install an old package from vivid repo | 20:56 |
| elichai2 | (I run willy) | 20:56 |
| the_count | elichai2: The archetecture specific version should be smaller/ more lightweight | 20:57 |
| elichai2 | thanks | 20:57 |
| mcphail | elichai2: can you give an example? | 20:58 |
| elichai2 | http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/b/boost1.55/ | 20:58 |
| elichai2 | libboost1.55 | 20:58 |
| mcphail | elichai2: installing a version of boost from a previous repo is a _very_ bad idea, and the files you want will be architecture specific | 20:59 |
| elichai2 | why so bad? | 20:59 |
| globalist | xela2244: mh, well it doesn't really solve your issue but have you tried shutting down from the command line? there are two ways that I know of: "sudo shutdown -h now" and also "sudo systemctl -i now" (if i'm correct) | 20:59 |
| elichai2 | I want to run a program that only works with boost1.55 | 21:00 |
| the_count | ' sudo poweroff ' | 21:00 |
| Bashing-om | the_count: It is a worthy thouhgt to install an earlier kernel . Maybe we do that .. I have in mind to re-install the touch pad driver .. then if still a problem generate a log file of what the driver is doing . | 21:00 |
| mcphail | elichai2: for a start, the c++ abi has changed from vivid to wily, and lots of apps rely on libboost. Good way to break your system. Rememebr to back up everything and be prepared for a full reinstall | 21:00 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: We could do that, I wouldn't know how though... | 21:00 |
| mgolisch | elichai2: what program? | 21:00 |
| elichai2 | namecoin | 21:01 |
| globalist | xela2244: the systemctl command might not take "now" as an argument, so if it doesn't work just leave it out. and yes, like the_count said, there's also "sudo poweroff" :) | 21:01 |
| elichai2 | mgolisch, https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=home%3Ap_conrad%3Acoins&package=namecoin-gui | 21:02 |
| elichai2 | mcphail, have a better idea? | 21:02 |
| mcphail | elichai2: install vivid and use it there | 21:02 |
| elichai2 | lol | 21:02 |
| mcphail | elichai2: if you want to go ahead with it, good luck and I hope it works out for you | 21:03 |

| m000gle | Is there any way to prevent Ubuntu from sleeping, and/or turning off the monitor, while the screen is locked? | 21:04 |
| elichai2 | mgolisch, that's a good idea | 21:05 |
| m000gle | "System Settings > Brightness & Lock > Turn screen off when inactive for..." seems to have no effect on the the maching going to sleep with the screen locked. | 21:06 |
| globalist | m000gle: I'm on Ubuntu Gnome so I'm not sure how the settings are layed out in vanilla Ubuntu, but shouldn't there also be an option for Suspend and Power-Off? | 21:07 |
| globalist | m000gle: like this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/157629/how-to-prevent-computer-from-automatically-sleeping-and-or-hibernating | 21:09 |
| m000gle | globalist: All options are already set to either "Do Nothing" or "Don't Suspend" | 21:09 |
| globalist | m000gle: Maybe the little app "Caffeine" might solve your problem? https://launchpad.net/~caffeine-developers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa | 21:11 |

| Hitechcg | Look up grub-customizer for the first one | 21:32 |
| the_count | bashing-om: i'm looking at the section for ' In case Touchpad features like scrolling, tapping, etc. do not work at all. ' | 21:32 |
| Hitechcg | Do "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer", "sudo apt-get update", and "sudo apt-get install grub-customizer" | 21:33 |
| only1dcb | Hitechcg: I did, http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/43471/how-to-configure-the-linux-grub2-boot-menu-the-easy-way/ , but in following the terminal instructions I have failed to actually install the package. | 21:33 |
| daftykins | only1dcb: nvidia chip in use? latest nvidia package along with nvidia-prime should be all you need. | 21:34 |
| Bashing-om | the_count: Yep .. that section is my thought also . | 21:34 |
| Hitechcg | only1dcb: What do you mean exactly? Did you get an error when trying to install it? | 21:35 |
| only1dcb | daftykins: I am still using the generic driver ATM. I wanted to change up my GRUB order first. But the package failed to install using the commands listed above, and in the tutorial I looked up. | 21:35 |
| daftykins | adjusting GRUB order beforehand makes zero sense | 21:36 |
| daftykins | in fact, what are you even referring to? | 21:36 |
| daftykins | dualboot and you want Windows above Ubuntu or something? | 21:36 |
| Bob_ | hey im trying to install drivers for my wireless adapter but everytime i install and reboot the device doesnt start | 21:37 |
| Bob_ | is there any fix for this? | 21:37 |
| Bob_ | do i have to manually start the drivers ... | 21:37 |
| Hitechcg | What device, and which drivers? | 21:37 |
| Bob_ | RTL8192CU usb-n13 wireless adapter | 21:37 |
| Bob_ | the rtll is the chip | 21:37 |
| Hitechcg | only1dcb: What error do you get? | 21:38 |
| Bob_ | https://github.com/pvaret/rtl8192cu-fixes | 21:38 |
| Bob_ | using this guys drivers | 21:38 |
| Bob_ | basically i dont see wireless at all | 21:38 |
| only1dcb | daftykins: Exactly. Hitechcg: Yeah, it looks like it found the repository, downloaded the key, and attempted to install the package, but I can't find it either by GUI, or command line... | 21:38 |
| Bob_ | it works fine until i reboot which is strange :/ | 21:39 |
| only1dcb | Hitechcg: Standby, I'm trying to read through the terminal log to find that needle. | 21:39 |
| daftykins | only1dcb: wouldn't changing the default make more sense? | 21:39 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: Ok.. Now what do we take a look at, those commands I enteded form the page, I am not sure as of what they do. | 21:39 |
| Hitechcg | only1dcb: See if you can hide join/leaves | 21:39 |
| only1dcb | daftykins: Possibly, like I said, I'm totally green on LINUX. So you're going to have to be real basic w/ me. | 21:40 |
| daftykins | Bob_: enter the module name you installed into /etc/modules ; it'll be loaded at boot. | 21:40 |
| Hitechcg | That probably would've been smart for me to do (hide them), too. | 21:40 |
| Bashing-om | if it went according to plan, should have a file : 'ls -al ~/evtest ' . yeah ? | 21:40 |
| daftykins | only1dcb: no, you need to explain what you're trying to achieve with the GRUB menu :) | 21:40 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: Wait... Wait a second... ' cat /proc/bus/input/devices > ~/devices ' did not return the name of the touchpad | 21:41 |
| only1dcb | daftykins: I want the Win10 parition to be the default OS. | 21:41 |
| daftykins | only1dcb: alright; so don't follow any of that guide you linked - huge waste of time installing software to do what is already built in. | 21:41 |
| Hitechcg | only1dcb: What IRC client are you using? Also, I'm really only moderately knowledgeable with Ubuntu. It's been over a year thoo | 21:41 |
| Bob_ | daftykins do you know where i can find the module name | 21:42 |
| Bob_ | also thanks for the help | 21:42 |
| only1dcb | Hitechcg: webchat.freenode.net | 21:42 |
| daftykins | Bob_: well what are you doing once it boots; to manually load it? | 21:42 |
| Bob_ | daftykins reinstall drivers | 21:42 |
| daftykins | Bob_: last step of which being what? | 21:42 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: Actually... I think we should be looking at this section: ' In case your multitouch features does not work ' | 21:43 |
| Bob_ | daftykins modprobe rtl8192cu | 21:43 |
| Hitechcg | only 1dcb: Go to the menu, then click Settings, then check "Hide JOINS/PARTS/QUITS". It'll make it easier to see stuff. | 21:44 |
| Yehai | bazhang: still being the cunt? | 21:44 |
| daftykins | Bob_: so that's the module name, put just that "rtl18192cu" into /etc/modules | 21:44 |
| daftykins | Bob_: "sudo nano /etc/modules" ; it explains how to edit it in the headers. | 21:44 |
| daftykins | *header | 21:44 |
| Bob_ | daftykins all right thanks for your help :D ill reboot | 21:44 |
| Bob_ | yeah i put it in already | 21:45 |
| daftykins | only1dcb: "sudo nano /etc/default/grub" -> change the default from 0 to the entry representing Windows, save and exit, run "sudo update-grub" reboot and test. simple | 21:45 |

| Hitechcg | only1dcb: Also, I'd recommend grub-customizer if you actually want to reorder the entries. It's a giant PITA to do manually. Have you tried running "grub-customizer" in terminal? | 21:48 |
| yourname1 | globalist: how are you? | 21:48 |
| Hitechcg | You can also search for "grub customizer" in the dash. I noticed the article you linked to was for an old pre-Unity Ubuntu version; I think that article may have confused you. | 21:49 |

| only1dcb | Hitechcg: Yes, it looks like the terminal got the repository, and package, downloaded it but made some sort of error in the install, Ergo the OS doesn't have it installed, but right now I'm trying to go with the easier method of ( daftykins: ) and just changing the default in GRUB. | 21:50 |

| samthewildone | zetheroo, might have to save it manually in the /etc/network/... | 21:56 |
| AlexQ | Hi again. I have a problem with my touchpad: scrolling works well in clean wily install, but not so well in vivid upgraded to wily. Xorg.0.log from clean wily: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13414714/ Xorg.0.log from vidid to wily: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13415282/ . Identical xorg.conf (nothing about Synaptics touchpad there, only to enable intel tearfree): http://paste.ubuntu.com/13415509/. | 21:56 |
| AlexQ | So the issue (on vivid to wily) is that in apps that support smooth scrolling (e.g. gedit) it seems that both the smooth scrolling and button emulation (4,5 I guess) is working, resulting in an extremely jittery experience. Also, there is no 'bounce' shade effect when trying to scroll further than possible. Anyone? | 21:56 |
| zetheroo | samthewildone: ok, but then there is a serious issue as this was working in 14.04 fine | 21:56 |
| int-main | I have RT3290 adapter. My Wifi says disabled by hardware switch. It used to work perfectly before. | 21:57 |
| int-main | Same problem as mentioned https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/2nf2ky/wifi_disabled_by_hardware_switch_computer_doesnt/ Its hard blocked | 21:57 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: There you go, AlexQ has a problem similar to mine | 21:57 |
| int-main | Any idea how? | 21:58 |
| zetheroo | seems that Network Manager in general is a bit broken. If I delete a VPN connection it's still in the drop-down selection of VPN connections. | 21:58 |
| daftykins | int-main: look for a key along the function keys which Fn+that will toggle wifi being on or off; they're not always dedicated sliding buttons | 21:58 |
| samthewildone | zetheroo, should had check the bug reports first. | 21:58 |
| int-main | daftykins: that is for airplane mode and doesn't seem to do any good | 21:59 |
| samthewildone | zetheroo, I've been in your shoes before. | 21:59 |
| daftykins | int-main: sure there isn't another? | 21:59 |
| int-main | daftykins: 100% sure | 21:59 |
| only1dcb | EriC^^: I've entered the correct entry for GRUB_DEFAULT= how do I save this, or exit appropriately? | 21:59 |
| int-main | I tried everything and then I had to return to Windows temporarily coz I needed Internet access | 21:59 |
| int-main | Whats weird is Ubuntu 15.04 used to work out of box and Wifi was functional, now it gives the same error. | 22:00 |
| samthewildone | zetheroo, is it something similar to this > https://askubuntu.com/questions/640009/annoying-popup-wifi-password-in-15-04 | 22:00 |
| daftykins | int-main: sometimes a warm reboot from Windows making use of it will help leave it on; otherwise a power off, removing the mains power + battery then holding the power button for a few seconds before reassembling and booting straight into ubuntu can help | 22:00 |
| EriC^^ | only1dcb: press ctrl+o to save | 22:00 |
| EriC^^ | only1dcb: then ctrl+x to exit | 22:00 |
| Bashing-om | AlexQ: We are working a similar issue .. you might take a stroll through https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection . See if you can determine a bug . | 22:00 |
| samthewildone | zetheroo, all I know is little annoying problems like that are linked to bugs. | 22:01 |
| int-main | daftykins: I didn't Dual boot. And I've tried those little tricks. | 22:01 |
| daftykins | int-main: i have nothing for you then | 22:01 |
| int-main | Looks like I've to spend rest of my life with Window | 22:02 |

| AlexQ | Bashing-om: I tried purging xserver-xorg-input-synaptics on that upgraded system, and installing again, but didn't help. It must be connected to the upgrade thing, something must be left from vivid. | 22:03 |
| zetheroo | samthewildone: no. In the configuration itself where you enter the password and private key - I enter both and click Save ... but the passwords are not actually saved. Furthermore the VPN account seems to not even try to connect - I don't know if its because of the passwords not being saved or Network Manager screwing something else up ... | 22:03 |
| daftykins | int-main: what machine is it? make + model. | 22:05 |
| int-main | daftykins: HP Pavilion 15-206tx | 22:06 |
| zs3451 | Hey | 22:06 |
| daftykins | int-main: is it on the latest BIOS? | 22:06 |
| tuomas | Hi | 22:06 |
| zs3451 | i'm having issues with 15.10. | 22:06 |
| zs3451 | I've just booted it off a USB | 22:06 |
| int-main | daftykins: No. I guess I never updated BIOS | 22:06 |
| only1dcb | EriC^^: Thanks for the help, it worked!. | 22:06 |
| zs3451 | installer isn't getting past preparing to install | 22:06 |
| zs3451 | So, I tried opening gparted, woulden't start up. | 22:07 |
| zs3451 | tried running as root | 22:07 |
| daftykins | int-main: tried older kernels, since you said 15.04 did work in the past? | 22:07 |
| zs3451 | same problem | 22:07 |
| EriC^^ | only1dcb: great! no problem | 22:07 |
| int-main | daftykins: The exact same ISO worked a while ago | 22:07 |
| zs3451 | just got an error message: Libparted | 22:07 |
| int-main | daftykins: Should it have anything to do with BIOS? | 22:07 |
| zs3451 | Input/Output error during read on /dev/sda | 22:07 |
| only1dcb | daftykins: Okay, now that I have GRUB the way I want it, I'm looking for guidance on installing the proper Nvidia optimus drivers instead of just the generic. This ( http://xmodulo.com/install-configure-nvidia-optimus-driver-ubuntu.html )is what I found that looks like a decent tutorial for what I want | 22:08 |
| bekks | zs3451: When doing what with gparted? | 22:08 |
| zs3451 | Just starting the program | 22:08 |
| daftykins | int-main: not usually, but assuming you tried my above suggestion correctly... that doesn't leave you with a lot. | 22:08 |
| zs3451 | Ubuntu doesen't seem to be reading my IDE disk drive | 22:08 |
| sssa | Hello. Ubuntu backup app doesn't include .cache/dconf , .dbus and .gvfs . What's wrong? | 22:08 |
| int-main | daftykins: I think I should try it. There was a BIOS update but I ignored it. | 22:08 |
| zs3451 | so i cant get past the first or second screen to format my drive in the installer | 22:09 |
| zs3451 | i checked the "Disks" utility | 22:09 |
| zs3451 | it shows my drive up | 22:09 |
| zs3451 | 400 GB | 22:09 |
| zs3451 | but I keep getting Input/Output errors. | 22:09 |
| zs3451 | I know the drive isn't failing | 22:09 |
| zs3451 | it just has a screwed up partition table | 22:09 |
| zs3451 | what should I do? | 22:09 |
| daftykins | only1dcb: just use the ubuntu drivers GUI tool yes, ensuring it installs nvidia-prime you should be all good. | 22:09 |
| kubast2 | Hey ,I installed ubuntu server onto kvm machine ,but I can't login through tty | 22:09 |
| bekks | kubast2: Why not? | 22:10 |
| cobordism | hello everyone. | 22:10 |
| kubast2 | it sdoesn't react to keyboard input | 22:10 |
| only1dcb | daftykins: Thanks, I'll let you know if I run into problems. :) | 22:10 |
| daftykins | oh i'm sure you will! | 22:10 |
| kubast2 | While it worked just fine on install iso [15.10 ubuntu server] | 22:11 |
| zs3451 | ;/ | 22:11 |
| zs3451 | anyone know what i should do about my drive? | 22:11 |
| Bashing-om | AlexQ: Yeah .. the-count and I have also been over that route .. still with a mal functioning touchpad . We have no solution to this time . | 22:12 |
| bekks | zs3451: you could wipe the partition table using dd. | 22:12 |
| zs3451 | ahh | 22:12 |
| zs3451 | with /dev/zero? | 22:12 |
| zs3451 | good idea bekks | 22:12 |
| daftykins | sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=1M count=5 | 22:13 |
| daftykins | zs3451: ^ | 22:13 |
| cobordism | I'm stuck with a problem. An upgrade from 14.04 to 15.04 failed. I could not run the upgrade manager again (error message: "cannot upgrade from 'Vivid' to 'Trusty' using this tool". Yes, you read that right). Then I tried to reboot and now I get stuck in a kernel panic. .............The next thing I did was to make a bootable usb stick for 15.04 and 15.10 and I can boot from them but wifi doesn't work. I also downloaded the correct wifi driver but I can in | 22:13 |
| cobordism | stall but not load(?) it on the live system so I have no internet and without internet I cannot use the live system to upgrade ubuntu, only to reinstall.... | 22:13 |
| daftykins | probably moot though | 22:13 |
| kubast2 | the keyboard works in grub through | 22:13 |
| bekks | cobordism: did you update from 14.04 to 14.10 to 15.04? | 22:13 |
| elisa87 | do you know how I can solve this connection refused problem? I am using Ubuntu? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33849107/java-net-connectexception-connection-refused ? | 22:13 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: It did it immediately | 22:13 |
| zs3451 | should I be worried? | 22:13 |
| daftykins | zs3451: no, you wrote 5MB... why would it take a long time? :) | 22:14 |
| cobordism | I just used the do-release-upgrade on 14.04 and it set itself to 15.04 and then failed | 22:14 |
| mcphail | cobordism: you are going to have to reinstall anyway. Your situation is not recoverable | 22:14 |
| zs3451 | hahahaha it worked | 22:14 |
| zs3451 | Thanks guys | 22:14 |
| daftykins | zs3451: i'm not sure i believe you on the disk's health though, run "sudo apt install smartmontools pastebinit" then "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX | pastebinit" | 22:14 |
| bekks | cobordism: Thats impossible, since a direct upgrade from 14.04 to 15.04 isnt even supported. | 22:14 |
| AlexQ | cobordism: I would start from running apt-get autoremove ; apt-get update ; apt-get dist-upgrade | 22:14 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: should I do this before installing? | 22:15 |
| eebb | Hello! Anyone willing to help me with a "missing partition" problem? I had Ubuntu+Win7 dual boot earlier. Then I updated to Win10, and my laptop booted to "grub rescue". Then, I used "Boot Repair Disk", and I am able to boot only to Windows10. My Boot Repair Disk output is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/13402884/. How can I get back my Ubuntu partition? I assume it is the sda3.. | 22:15 |
| daftykins | zs3451: yes | 22:15 |
| cobordism | I cannot get into the system now @AlexQ, I can only boot a live system. I can then mount the underlying filesystem and chroot and do that kind of stuff, but I cannot just use apt-get | 22:15 |
| AlexQ | Bashing-om: So it works well for you on clean wily install/wily live too? | 22:16 |
| cobordism | bekks: that's what do-release-upgrade does for 14.04 these days. | 22:16 |
| bekks | cobordism: Impossible. | 22:16 |
| kubast2 | ok nvm ,the keyboard no longer dares to work on this kvm machine | 22:16 |
| Hitechcg | I recommend gparted. For some reason, gnome-disks seems to be a bit buggy, at least for me. | 22:16 |
| cobordism | so here is a question then, how do I make wifi work on a live system if I have the deb package with the driver? | 22:16 |
| zs3451 | okay | 22:16 |
| AlexQ | cobordism: Why don't you just install the system first then? | 22:16 |
| zs3451 | im setting it up now daftykins | 22:17 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: the commands you advised do not help given the information we were given about cobordism's situation :) | 22:17 |
| Hitechcg | crap I managed to not realize I was scrolled up :/ | 22:17 |
| zs3451 | do you want to see some sort of log file? | 22:17 |
| Bashing-om | AlexQ: Not my problem but that of the_count . Yes on 14.04's utopic stack it works .. not on vivid's stack . | 22:17 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: please don't suggest things when you haven't read the scenario :) | 22:17 |
| AlexQ | daftykins: cobordism: I forgot to ask if cobordism tried to run in recovery mode | 22:18 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: I did it | 22:18 |
| zs3451 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/13419045/ | 22:18 |
| daftykins | AlexQ: not gonna help a kernel panic really; please just stop | 22:18 |
| daftykins | zs3451: ok as it says you'll need to change it to "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX -s on | pastebinit" | 22:19 |
| woodpusherghd | I'm trying to install openVPN on Ubuntu desktop 14.04 and I'm running into the "invalid secrets" error when I try to connect. | 22:19 |
| cobordism | you can use a live system to do a system upgrade, but only if you have internet. I do not have internet, but I have a package with the correct wifi driver. Is there I way I can install the driver on the running live-system in order to get working internet? | 22:19 |

| Taora | hello everyone, I was unpacking a tar file, and my cursor froze. then I saw the warning that my disk has 0 space, which was not possible, given the free HDD space. and 'df -h' shows the correct available space,too. so I presume the ram has been used up? but then, why should unpacking tar use up the ram? | 22:21 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: should I be worried about these errors? | 22:22 |
| AlexQ | Taora: Are you sure that the tar output was on the same drive that you looked at with df -h? | 22:22 |
| daftykins | zs3451: they do suggest it's not very happy; "dmesg | pastebinit" would be interesting to see | 22:22 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13419755/ | 22:23 |
| Taora | or is it a similar case as this one: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/39722/preventing-tar-from-using-too-much-cpu-and-disk-old-laptop-crashes-if-100 ? | 22:24 |
| AlexQ | Taora: Was the warning an error message from tar, or a system-wide warning from GUI? | 22:24 |

| woodpusherghd | Anyone experience the "invalid secrets" error whn setting up open VPN in Network manager in ubuntu desktop 14.04? | 22:27 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: the stuff about ext4 is probably when i was going to format but then quit the installer | 22:27 |
| bekks | woodpusherghd: Sounds like wrong credentials. | 22:27 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: I don't really understand all of the output, to be completely honest. | 22:28 |
| brack9 | Is it possible to have a single iptables rule apply to multiple hosts? I don't see a way to do that in the manpage, but there must be some way | 22:28 |
| daftykins | zs3451: that's a really odd choice to make after thinking of SATA issues... | 22:28 |
| woodpusherghd | I double checked my password and certificaye and all seems fine. | 22:28 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: I have 3 separate sata drives that don't work on the board | 22:28 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: i'm then led to believe that it's probably the sata controller.. | 22:29 |
| daftykins | zs3451: i don't think it's necessarily either; probably PSU related - is it old this machine? | 22:29 |
| daftykins | zs3451: show me an "lspci" | 22:29 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: Machine is about 5 years old | 22:29 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: I think it could be the PSU | 22:29 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: I can't decide if it is or not | 22:29 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: maybe you're more knowledgable and can figure it out | 22:30 |

| daftykins | heh ah yes an nvidia chipset, felt like that was coming | 22:30 |
| daftykins | zs3451: you can try your install, but all those errors in dmesg? that thing is not going to work | 22:31 |
| zs3451 | The drive has run very smoothly | 22:31 |

| zs3451 | until one day, I used the power button | 22:31 |
| only1dcb | daftykins: The drivers are working well. Before I leave the channel, the driver manager had a check-box for Intel CPU firmware, is it worth using? And finally, do you know of any decent beginners tutorials for exploring the OS, and specifically the GUI? I have a decent one for exploring terminal already... | 22:31 |
| zs3451 | while booting | 22:31 |
| zs3451 | it seemed to mess up GRUB's booting process | 22:31 |
| daftykins | zs3451: stop pressing enter... you are spamming. i also don't need to hear its' life history | 22:31 |
| zs3451 | Okay. | 22:32 |
| daftykins | only1dcb: your mouse is all you need to explore the GUI. | 22:32 |
| eebb | Could someone please interpret the results of "parted print" here http://paste.ubuntu.com/13420750/ . The number 3, which is 'extended' contains my Ubuntu operating system.. How can I boot onto it? | 22:32 |
| rampantphoto | this is the first time i've ever used IRC | 22:32 |
| only1dcb | daftykins: lol, nice. But seriously, thoughts on the Intel CPU firmware? | 22:32 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: is it more likely to be a PSU failing or the actual board itself? | 22:33 |
| daftykins | only1dcb: be happy when things work as they are | 22:33 |
| daftykins | zs3451: this isn't a hardware channel, so i can't help you further | 22:33 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: Okay. Thanks for the help you have given me :) | 22:33 |
| daftykins | rampantphoto: odd, swear i've seen your nickname before... ubuntu support in here or "/j #ubuntu-offtopic" to change channel and chat | 22:33 |
| only1dcb | daftykins: I've been given such advice from linux / unix proficient friends. :p Thanks again for your help, and guidance! | 22:34 |
| daftykins | zs3451: one thing though, that's clearly an old system so i wouldn't waste any effort on it. i see newer stuff get thrown away all the time | 22:34 |
| rampantphoto | sweet, ubuntu support is what i'm looking for i posted my question up on superuser but never got an answer | 22:34 |
| woodpusherghd | Is there a bug in gnome network manager in ubuntu desktop 14.94 causing the "invalid secrets" error in openVPN? | 22:35 |

| MonkeyDust | eebb you mean 14.04? | 22:37 |
| rampantphoto | I've set up a headless Ubuntu box on my local network. However there seems to be an issue. If, for whatever reason, I have to power down the machine, when I turn it back on, it prompts me for a username / password. I have to physically plug in a keyboard, and type my username > return > password > return and then it continues to boot. I am unable to access the machine remotely via ssh until after I've done this. I'm wondering if | 22:37 |
| rampantphoto | there's a way to remove this initial login on boot step, or if I can automatically login on boot. Thank you for your help! I've searched all over and can't seem to figure out how do do this. | 22:37 |
| zs3451 | daftykins: well as I said you've been a good help, i'll get to installing my system now and i'll probably come back on the channel later on | 22:37 |

| Taora | hello everybody! I was unpacking a tar file, and my cursor froze. I have enough disk space. so was it because the ram was used up? I wonder if I could access my desktop if I restarted the machine. can you help me please? | 22:40 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: sorry, i'm also new to IRC so i'm not sure how to | 22:40 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: just like that! :) | 22:40 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: if your whole disk is encrypted, you have to enter password on boot. | 22:40 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: sweet, picked it up based on context right as i was typing that | 22:40 |
| MonkeyDust | eebb scroll down, i'm you'll find what you need here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 22:40 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: best thing for a headless setup is to encrypt per user, not whole disk | 22:41 |
| MonkeyDust | i'm sure* | 22:41 |
| eebb | hggdh Thank you. This is what I got http://paste.ubuntu.com/13421976/ .. Did not look very helpful | 22:41 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: sweet, that's something i haven't looked into. let me do some research on that. unless you have some quick off the cuff advice as to how to find that out / do what you said | 22:41 |
| eebb | MonkeyDust: Thank you, I will read that | 22:41 |

| rampantphoto | inteus: np, that's what google is for. having a direction to search is super helpful | 22:43 |
| AlexQ | Bashing-om: Are you sure the problem is connected with the synaptics driver, or even X at all? Maybe it is some gtk lib issue or sth? How does e.g. gedit decide which scrolling method to use (which even to receive, or maybe is it that only one of two event types is sent?)? | 22:43 |
| AlexQ | Bashing-om: Can you just disable smooth scrolling? | 22:43 |

| VictoriaXOXO | :/ | 22:45 |
| eebb | MonkeyDust: I have the latest Ubuntu installed.. The LiveCD is just old. But I have also this Boot Repair Disk from sourgeforge (latest version). Not sure if it has latest Ubuntu or whatever Linux. | 22:45 |
| tachyondecay | Whoo! Got Ubuntu working on my new XPS 15 without nuking the Windows installation. Touchscreen, touchpad is all working out of the box. Amazing. | 22:46 |
| compdoc | VictoriaXOXO, I think thats just part of the new samba. you probably have an error at boot as well. its not setup or working | 22:46 |

| huisk_ | whats the dirrents between Ubuntu en Ubuntu Kylin? | 22:47 |
| MonkeyDust | huisk_ kylin is chinese | 22:48 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: from what i can tell it's not encrypted. something to note, the password to login on boot is not the same as my password for root. | 22:48 |
| Seveas | huisk_: kylin focuses on the chinese user, so I'm guessing it comes with chinese as default language and has some additional packages specifically aimed at chinese users. | 22:48 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: is it just asking for a password? or a login name too? | 22:48 |
| rampantphoto | login name as well | 22:48 |
| inteus | huh | 22:49 |
| eebb | MonkeyDust: Well, I mean that is there anything wrong in this http://paste.ubuntu.com/13420750/, since the Ubuntu partition is the partition number 3. It does not have file system or any flags.. And the type is extended? | 22:49 |

| inteus | rampantphoto: that's not an encryption problem then. It won't let you remote into the box without logging in at the box itself? | 22:49 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: correct | 22:50 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: maybe its something with your sshd settings...I have limited knowledge about that though. | 22:50 |
| Bashing-om | AlexQ: Away from the key board .. lemme catch up . | 22:50 |
| VictoriaXOXO | compdoc: Oh, okay. What would be the easiest way of getting rid of it? Even if it doesn't disturb me THAT much. | 22:50 |
| MonkeyDust | eebb scroll down to <7> http://askubuntu.com/questions/151968/what-does-the-term-extended-partition-mean-is-it-safe-to-use-this-type-of-par | 22:51 |
| === huisk_ is now known as mousenl | ||
| AlexQ | Bashing-om: Okay, gonna log events on this OS as well and then boot into clean wily where everything works correctly | 22:51 |
| AlexQ | Bashing-om: What about the xserver-xorg-input-multitouch package? I don't have that one installed (but on neither OS I think). What is it for? | 22:52 |
| VictoriaXOXO | MonkeyDust: Do I really need Samba? :/ | 22:53 |
| baiter | u don't like samba? | 22:53 |
| VictoriaXOXO | baiter: No opinion. Do I need it? :P | 22:54 |
| MonkeyDust | VictoriaXOXO shelter, food and water is all we really need ... samba is a protocol to let linux communicate with windows | 22:54 |
| baiter | i use it create network drive, so you can have a storage device shared in a network | 22:54 |
| eebb | MonkeyDust: Thank you. Really appreciate it. I will have a look. | 22:54 |
| VictoriaXOXO | MonkeyDust: Then I want to remove it. What is the proper way to delete Samba completely? | 22:54 |
| MonkeyDust | VictoriaXOXO how did you install it? | 22:55 |
| daftykins | VictoriaXOXO: foolish. | 22:55 |
| Avocado_ | hi ubuntu people | 22:55 |
| Avocado_ | I just switched over to ubuntu for the first time in my life | 22:55 |
| Avocado_ | Im digging it so far, but have some questions | 22:55 |
| VictoriaXOXO | MonkeyDust: I never installed it. | 22:55 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: Why?! | 22:55 |
| Na3iL | hey Avocado_ go ahead and ask :) | 22:55 |
| Avocado_ | I made an .sh file and put it in startup applications so that it executes on boot | 22:55 |
| Avocado_ | I wanted my monitor display to set its refresh rate at 144hz | 22:55 |
| Avocado_ | so I put this in the sh file | 22:55 |
| Avocado_ | xrandr --output DVI-I-1 --primary --mode 1920x1080 -r 144 | 22:55 |
| Avocado_ | when I reboot, my refresh rate is at 60.0 | 22:56 |
| Avocado_ | what do i do wrong? | 22:56 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: If you think it's foolish, then you could help me with getting rid of this error and still keep Samba. "Starting SMB/CIFS File and Active Directory Server [FAIL]" | 22:56 |
| Seveas | Avocado_: that won't work. That script doesn't know which display to use, and depending one where it's executed from may not even have access to the display. | 22:56 |
| Avocado_ | its executed from home/startup scripts | 22:57 |
| Avocado_ | i made that folder there | 22:57 |
| daftykins | VictoriaXOXO: no, you don't use it - an error doesn't matter. you're not even sure what the error means right now. | 22:58 |
| Seveas | that's entirely not the point. What's executing it? An initscript? Something that runs when you login? Does it run as your user? | 22:58 |
| Avocado_ | an sh file that i run through startup applications | 22:58 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: do you think it may have something to do with a profile or something as simple as that? | 22:58 |
| Avocado_ | the internet said it would work that way | 22:58 |
| baiter | he said he used startup application to run it | 22:58 |
| VictoriaXOXO | daftykins: Are you really going to refuse to help me because YOU don't think a error matter? :/ | 22:58 |
| Avocado_ | Ah | 22:58 |
| Avocado_ | I see the script doesnt work | 22:59 |
| Avocado_ | xrandr: cannot find mode 1920x1080 | 22:59 |
| Seveas | Avocado_: what's this 'startup applications'? | 22:59 |
| Avocado_ | its standard in ubuntu | 22:59 |
| Avocado_ | programs that run on bootup | 22:59 |
| Seveas | no, they don't run on bootup | 22:59 |
| Seveas | they run when you log in | 22:59 |
| Seveas | significant difference :) | 22:59 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: ssh should work right after installation. I've never had to mess with the configuration. | 22:59 |
| Avocado_ | technically right, but you know what I mean | 22:59 |
| bekks | Avocado_: its still not clear what you did where, exactly. Where did you create which folder? | 23:00 |
| baiter | Avocado_: 1. did you try setting your default resolution to 1920x1080 in settings? 2. did you test the script without startup applications? 3. does it need permissions to run? | 23:00 |
| Seveas | try not using --mode but --fb | 23:01 |
| Seveas | and if that still doesn't work, add --display=:0 | 23:01 |
| Avocado_ | 1. yes, 2. no, i see that my script doesnt work 3. yes, but i set chmod +x on it | 23:01 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: if my setup wasn't such a paint to move, i'd plugin a monitor to see why it's asking me for a login. is there a way after ssh-ing in to go back and read that login prompt? | 23:02 |
| baiter | Avocado_: first, i'd press command key + search "display" | 23:02 |
| inteus | you could try looking at /var/log/bootlog | 23:02 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: you could try looking at /var/log/bootlog | 23:02 |
| Avocado_ | Seveas, xrandr: unrecognized option '--display=:0' | 23:03 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Q: Does anyone know how to fix this error? "Starting SMB/CIFS File and Active Directory Server [FAIL]" | 23:03 |
| Seveas | Avocado_: replace the = witha single space | 23:03 |
| int-main | daftykins: Just tried with updated BIOS. Same :( | 23:03 |
| Seveas | xrandr is annoying and doesn't accept the = | 23:03 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: or /var/log/auth.log | 23:03 |
| Avocado_ | Rate 144.0 Hz not available for this size | 23:03 |
| Avocado_ | Thats weird, my monitor is 144hz | 23:03 |
| AlexQ | Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13424150/ - vivid to wily xev, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13424158/ - vivid to wily evtest | 23:04 |
| egggs | will the video card go that high ? avocado | 23:04 |
| Avocado_ | yes egggs, i use it on windows too | 23:05 |
| Avocado_ | i think i messed up the command | 23:05 |
| egggs | or more the drivers your are using, i dont know just throwing out stuff | 23:05 |
| Avocado_ | xrandr -s 1920x1080 -r 144 | 23:05 |
| Na3iL | VictoriaXOXO, Ubuntu uses a service initializer called Upstart which start all the services in /etc/init | 23:05 |
| Na3iL | So just delete the startup script there called samba-ad-dc.conf | 23:05 |
| Avocado_ | weird, i switched to nvidia driver and suddenly i cant put my refresh rate that high | 23:06 |
| Bashing-om | AlexQ: Look'n at http://paste.ubuntu.com/13424150/ . | 23:06 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Na3iL: Easy enough. Thanks a lot! :D | 23:07 |
| Na3iL | you are welcome :) | 23:07 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: that definitely tells me something, just not sure what haha. thanks for the help btw | 23:07 |
| Avocado_ | Got it to work! | 23:08 |
| hduser | hi all | 23:08 |
| AlexQ | Bashing-om: So both these files were just scrolling up and down with two fingers, didn't want to make them too large with other events. Also, the capabilities list tells the touchpad supports multitouch, obviously. I think it will be interesting to see these files generated on freshly installed willy, where scrolling works well, so rebooting there. Will be back in a sec | 23:08 |
| Avocado_ | xrandr --output DVI-I-2 --mode 1920x1080 --rate 144 | 23:08 |

| Avocado_ | this one worked | 23:08 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: this mean anything to you? | 23:08 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: can you pastebin it? | 23:08 |
| Avocado_ | but doesnt the output "DVI-I-2" change? | 23:08 |
| Avocado_ | like its dynamic? | 23:08 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: sure | 23:09 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: that's just stuff running in the background. That's ok. | 23:09 |
| AlexQ | Bashing-om: I am on clean wily now. | 23:10 |
| tobiasz | hello | 23:10 |
| AlexQ | evening tobiasz | 23:10 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: msg or board? | 23:11 |
| eebb | Anyone know how to recover Ubuntu from unallocated File system? (see image http://ibin.co/2NMnJAe4OKDZ) | 23:11 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: no need, those messages are about root running cron jobs in the background. those are ok | 23:11 |
| rampantphoto | oh ok | 23:11 |
| Na3iL | take a look eebb → https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery | 23:12 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: I'm baffled as to why you would have to login at the actual console instead of just ssh'ing in | 23:12 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: well that makes me feel better. | 23:12 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Na3iL: You seem smart. Do you also know why I get notifications for almost everything (MATE), but not for when VPN disconnects or when my network disconnects? | 23:13 |
| eebb | Na3iL: Thanks, I will check that | 23:13 |
| Bashing-om | AlexQ: Presently baffeled as to what is not being interpreted from where . Keep in mind there are several bug reports that are pointing the fingers at the proprietary code . | 23:14 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: i'm seeing a lot of "Fails password for root from ---ip---" | 23:14 |
| Na3iL | I tried mate for 2 months, not that professional use | 23:15 |
| Na3iL | but I will search for it VictoriaXOXO | 23:15 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Na3iL: Wooooop! :) | 23:15 |
| Avocado_ | So I was booting up just now and suddenly I got this error message before booting up ubuntu: | 23:15 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: is that an ssh message in the log file? | 23:15 |
| Avocado_ | dm_parse_tocblock(): Cannot find TOCBLOCK, database may be corrupt | 23:15 |
| Avocado_ | i googled but couldnt find any answer | 23:15 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: and is that from your IP? | 23:15 |
| Na3iL | BTW, VictoriaXOXO is it Ubuntu MATE or just a DE? | 23:15 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Na3iL: Well, Ubuntu with MATE over. :P | 23:16 |
| rampantphoto | it's not from my ip, but when i google the ip it says it's from Korea? | 23:17 |
| Onepamopa | anyone got problem updating from 15.04 -> 15.10 ? | 23:17 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: the first result is from the anti hacker alliance haha | 23:17 |
| Onepamopa | few packages failed to install, after which the updater failed | 23:17 |
| Na3iL | You are using proxy or a manual config in your browser rampantphoto | 23:18 |
| BlastRed | Test | 23:18 |
| Na3iL | Nope Onepamopa what kind of problem you get? | 23:18 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: do you port forward from your router to your ubuntu? that could leave you open to the world. | 23:18 |
| AlexQ | Onepamopa: For me it was a disaster, but luckily managed to solve. Maybe start from checking dist-upgrade log? | 23:18 |
| Onepamopa | Na3iL, I'll pastebin what I can from the log. | 23:18 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: yes, i think so. | 23:18 |
| BlastRed | Hello, i've recentely replaced my hard drive with a new one, which has w7 on it and a bunch of my ol' files. i keep getting the error "OS not found", but if i boot up my disk drive and go on linux mint, its mountable and i see all my w7 files... whats wrong with it? | 23:18 |
| rampantphoto | Na3il: not that i know of | 23:18 |
| rampantphoto | i'm quite new at this, so i'm probably making more than one mistake | 23:19 |
| BlastRed | (thanks Bashing-om ) | 23:19 |
| BlastRed | +others | 23:19 |
| MonkeyDust | rampantphoto type this in a termina (those are backticks, not quotes) whois `curl ifconfig.me` | 23:19 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: you should use a different external port to point to internal port 22....something like 2222...makes it more secure...non-default. | 23:19 |
| mrrob0t | hey | 23:19 |
| BlastRed | Help? | 23:20 |
| Onepamopa | Na3iL, well, I can't copy from the "Distribution upgrade" window for some reason. Any of this logged anywhere ? | 23:20 |
| BlastRed | == Cannot send to channel: ##hardware (wtf why?) | 23:20 |
| BlastRed | i cant say anything in the hardware channel! | 23:20 |
| Onepamopa | it sits on "sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)" | 23:20 |
| AlexQ | Bashing-om: Well, the only thing I actually want to achieve is for the scrolling to work on my vivid upgraded to wily as it works on my freshly installed wily. There just has to be some different package, or config remaining from vivid there? Really no idea how to look for that? I don't know much about that stuff. | 23:20 |
| Na3iL | BlastRed, you ask that question in #freenode | 23:21 |
| BlastRed | Na3iL: #freenode? | 23:21 |
| rampantphoto | MonkeyDust: ok, did that | 23:21 |
| Onepamopa | the failed packages: mysql-common libmysqlclient18:amd64 mysql-client-5.6 freeradius-mysql libmysqlclient-dev | 23:21 |
| Na3iL | and btw, the channel's owner sets the mode of channel -i That means only voices people can talk | 23:21 |
| BlastRed | Na3iL: oh yeah lol my bad | 23:21 |
| UbuN2 | got to regiter nickss in some channels BlastRed | 23:21 |
| Onepamopa | AlexQ, how did u manage to salvage the situation ? | 23:22 |
| Na3iL | VictoriaXOXO, I am sorry but I think it is a bug | 23:22 |
| BlastRed | UbuN2: how do i reg for ##hardware | 23:22 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Na3iL: Oh, no! :( | 23:22 |
| inteus | !register | BlastRed | 23:23 |
| ubottu | BlastRed: Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode | 23:23 |
| BlastRed | Okay, thanks | 23:23 |
| UbuN2 | ^^ | 23:23 |
| Na3iL | VictoriaXOXO, I will search if anyone declared the bug in LP, meanwhile you can install directly Ubuntu MATE it is more stable as I think.. | 23:24 |
| AlexQ | Onepamopa: Well, the worst thing for seemed to be that I had linux-generic package missing (probably my fault, I think it was removed automatically when removing something else before upgrade...) so I ended up without updated kernel, and the old one seemed to have issues. | 23:24 |
| AlexQ | Onepamopa: But I would really start from checking update log. It is in a folder in /var/log/ ..., don't remember exactly. | 23:24 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: back | 23:25 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: yes, i think so. not sure how to do that off hand, but i'll look it up. thanks | 23:25 |
| noah | Why does the 14.04 to 15.04 upgrade fail? I have a ASUS M3A78CM Motherboard, a AMD Athlon processor, 4G of RAM and a 250G Harddisk. | 23:25 |
| mlvmhn | my system hangs when i run qbittorent, but not when it is not running. why is this?? | 23:25 |
| Avocado_ | how do i install google chrome on ubuntu? | 23:26 |
| MonkeyDust | noah how did you upgrade? via 14.10 or a fresh install? | 23:26 |
| Na3iL | noah, It is not possible to upgrade directly from 14.04 to 15.04. These days a lot of people think that 15.04 is LTS. | 23:26 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Na3iL: No time for that. :( | 23:26 |
| Na3iL | You can upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10, then to 15.04. Or just make a fresh install. | 23:26 |
| inteus | rampantphoto: you will probably keep getting unautorized ssh attempts while port 22 is open to the internet. not a huge problem if you have very secure passwords. | 23:27 |
| noah | In order to install Google Chrome, you must first use apt-add-repository to add the chrome repo. Then install frome Ubuntu Software Center | 23:27 |
| noah | I upgraded from 14.04, not clean install. | 23:27 |
| AlexQ | Avocado_: Or you can just download a package from Google (64 or 32 bit one). That should add Google's repo automatically as well. You might consider Chromium as well, which is in Ubuntu repo. | 23:27 |
| noah | OK. I'll try that. Thanks. | 23:27 |
| MonkeyDust | noah so first to 14.10 and then to 15.04? | 23:27 |
| Avocado_ | yeah i just dled it from googles website | 23:28 |
| Avocado_ | how do i know which repo is google's? | 23:28 |
| Avocado_ | to do the add repo thing | 23:28 |
| Na3iL | VictoriaXOXO, my humble opinion is to try more DE, I tried most of them and I am satisfied now with Awesome wm | 23:28 |
| AlexQ | Avocado_: I think the easiest way is to just download the .deb file. https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html | 23:29 |
| Avocado_ | yeah ill stick to that | 23:29 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Na3iL: I don't know how to install them without getting all the software that comes with them. | 23:29 |
| noah | look it up. I did it, but I do not know the repo name. Search for "add google chrome repo ubuntu" | 23:29 |
| OerHeks | Avocado_, You need the deb from the google site, it installs the ppa & key | 23:30 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: So.. If you are around... We could proceed | 23:30 |
| Na3iL | I can help you with installing them VictoriaXOXO just pick up a good DE that makes you feel comfortable :) | 23:30 |
| Avocado_ | How do i install a deb file through terminal | 23:30 |
| Avocado_ | if i were not to use the package manager | 23:31 |
| * qu | 23:31 | |
| Na3iL | dpkg -i example.deb | 23:31 |
| Na3iL | Avocado_, | 23:31 |
| VictoriaXOXO | Na3iL: Cinnamon without anything (!) extra would be nice. No additional software, just visual changes, please. | 23:31 |
| noah | use the 'dpkg' command to install a deb file from terminal | 23:31 |
| Avocado_ | cool | 23:31 |
| Avocado_ | what does the -i do | 23:31 |
| bprompt | ahemm -i "install" oddly enough | 23:31 |
| Na3iL | -i means install Avocado_ | 23:31 |
| Avocado_ | ahh, i feel dumb now lol | 23:31 |
| UbuN2 | : | 23:32 |
| Avocado_ | what about dpkg, what does that stand for? | 23:32 |
| noah | -i means install | 23:32 |
| UbuN2 | :D | 23:32 |
| Avocado_ | hard to remember a word like that | 23:32 |
| OerHeks | Avocado_, odd, you have the packagemanager.. why doyou ask? | 23:32 |
| Na3iL | Avocado_, just use man dpkg | 23:32 |
| Na3iL | type* | 23:32 |
| Avocado_ | Just curious I guess | 23:32 |
| bprompt | Avocado_: ahemm "d"ebian "p"ac"kg"e manager | 23:32 |
| noah | dpkgg is the backend to apt-get, only it works on downloaded .deb files, not internet repos | 23:32 |
| Avocado_ | ill just remember dpkg as Download PacKaGe | 23:33 |
| Avocado_ | well, not entirely true | 23:33 |
| Avocado_ | de package | 23:33 |
| vacho | hey guys, I am installing a web server and I just deployed an ubuntu 14.04 image... I remember there are two recommended commands to run that will update everything to latest secury and stable, anyone care to help? | 23:33 |
| MonkeyDust | vacho there's also #ubuntu-server | 23:33 |
| noah | dpkg does NOT download anything, it only works locally! | 23:33 |
| irc_to_new2015 | sudo apt-get update? | 23:33 |
| Na3iL | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade vacho | 23:33 |
| Avocado_ | noah, yeah i just realized that | 23:33 |
| Avocado_ | noah, ignore that comment | 23:33 |
| the_count | vacho: ' sudo apt-get update ' and ' sudo apt-get upgrade ' | 23:34 |
| irc_to_new2015 | join #python | 23:34 |
| noah | Don't forget 'sudo apt-get upgrade' and 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' | 23:34 |
| vacho | will upgrade upgrade it to 15.10? | 23:34 |
| bprompt | Avocado_: when you use apt-get, or the Software Center to install stuff, what they're really doing is giving you an UI, and asking dpkg to install this or that | 23:34 |
| Avocado_ | bprompt, thanks, makes sense | 23:34 |
| Avocado_ | What irc client do you guys recommend? | 23:34 |
| qu | my /etc/hosts seems useless now. i set `192.168.1.123 www.abc.com` in `hosts`, but when i `ping www.abc.com`, returns `PING kevin.com.router (120.192.83.162) 56(84) bytes of data.` Why? (lubuntu 15.10) | 23:35 |
| Avocado_ | i want something minimal | 23:35 |
| OerHeks | vacho, oh boy, so you start a webserver, without basic knowledge?? good start https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/ | 23:35 |
| bprompt | Avocado_: one that you like and works for you :) | 23:35 |
| noah | I do not think so, but just to be safe, do not run dist-upgrade | 23:35 |
| MonkeyDust | Avocado_ irssi and weechat are popular | 23:35 |
| Na3iL | Avocado_, for me it is irssi | 23:35 |
| the_count | Avocado_: irssi | 23:35 |
| bprompt | Avocado_: kvirc, irssi, xchat, many like hexchat, konversation, quassel, pick your poison | 23:35 |
| Avocado_ | Thanks! | 23:36 |
| noah | I am using irssi as my IRC client | 23:36 |
| Avocado_ | So theres a way to attach a window to left and right part of the screen | 23:36 |
| Avocado_ | but can you split it into 4 windows? | 23:36 |
| UbuN2 | yep | 23:36 |
| Avocado_ | whats the shortkey for that? | 23:36 |
| the_count | bprompt: I like that.. pick your poison | 23:36 |
| bprompt | hehe | 23:36 |
| OerHeks | Avocado_, hold win key and find out | 23:36 |
| vacho | thx all | 23:37 |
| Bashing-om | the_count: Reading bug reports in respect to touchpad .. got nowhere else to go at this point . | 23:37 |
| Avocado_ | OEP_, ahh, I was searching for that window, thanks | 23:37 |
| int-main | Okay, I officially give up. Somebody explain me, if WiFi works with a particular ISO and I use it later why would it not work? | 23:37 |
| Na3iL | OerHeks, did you said now win key? :/ | 23:37 |
| UbuN2 | Avocado_ ==>> http://irssi.org/beginner/ | 23:37 |
| qu | i tried lots of times, any not exists domain names (but a set in /etc/hosts) are return `120.192.83.192` when ping. | 23:37 |
| noah | Are you using the same ISO on the same computer? | 23:38 |
| OerHeks | Na3iL, win key super key, microsoft key, whatever | 23:38 |
| AlexQ | Avocado_: Just drag the window to the corner of the screen :D | 23:38 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: Say we removed everything after 3.16.0-30, and went from there | 23:38 |
| Avocado_ | if i do the drag, it will just take half of my screen | 23:38 |
| * OerHeks pokes Na3iL | 23:38 | |
| Avocado_ | i want to be able to split windows in 4 small pieces | 23:38 |
| noah | Check the wireless switch, if it is a laptop | 23:38 |
| Na3iL | hahaha OerHeks I like Mod key :P | 23:38 |
| Avocado_ | cant find the shortcut in the shortcut list | 23:38 |
| AlexQ | Avocado_: To the corner, not the side. Like upper or bottom 1/4 of the side | 23:39 |
| noah | int-main: Check the wireless switch, if it is a laptop | 23:39 |
| linux77537 | Hi there | 23:39 |
| Avocado_ | AlexQ, I tried, doesnt work :/ | 23:39 |
| int-main | I don't have a wireless switch on my laptop | 23:39 |
| Avocado_ | Is it available on ubuntu 14? | 23:39 |
| Acerio | Anyone here a member of Ubuntu Hardened team? | 23:39 |
| AlexQ | Avocado_: Thought you were talking about Ubuntu Wily. Don't know. | 23:39 |
| Na3iL | What you mean Avocado_ by wireless switch? | 23:39 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: guess i should use an ssh key... | 23:40 |
| Avocado_ | Na3iL, You mean int-main? | 23:40 |
| linux77537 | When I run nautilus as root from a live CD it doesnt display my HDD, why? | 23:40 |
| Na3iL | Yep Acerio I saw your msg in the channel | 23:40 |
| bprompt | !dev | AlexQ | 23:40 |
| ubottu | AlexQ: Interested in becoming an Ubuntu Developer? Get started here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment | 23:40 |
| bprompt | hmm wrong alias =) | 23:40 |
| noah | int-main: Is it enabled in the GUI? Is the password correct? Is the kernel madule loaded? (For the latter, look into 'dmesg') | 23:40 |
| int-main | noah: Password? It says Wireless disabled by hardware switch. rfkill says its hard blocked. | 23:41 |
| linux77537 | someone pls help me. | 23:41 |
| noah | linux77537: Is the device mounted? type 'mount' and look for your device label. That should get you started. | 23:41 |
| the_count | linux77527: Ask your question then. | 23:41 |
| linux77537 | yep it shows up fine when im not root | 23:41 |
| AlexQ | bprompt: So what was your aim then? | 23:42 |
| noah | int-main: Is this a laptop or desktop? | 23:42 |
| Onepamopa | AlexQ, disaster averted ... :) | 23:42 |
| linux77537 | but when I run nautilus as root it disappears | 23:42 |
| bprompt | Acerio: try maybe #ubuntu-devel | 23:42 |
| === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang | ||
| AlexQ | Onepamopa: Wonderful :) | 23:42 |
| bprompt | AlexQ: yes, wrong alias and nick, like batting 0 for 2 =) | 23:42 |
| MonkeyDust | linux77537 what are you trying to do? | 23:42 |
| int-main | noah: Laptop | 23:42 |
| noah | linux77537: I don't know... | 23:42 |
| AlexQ | bprompt: Haha | 23:42 |
| Acerio | bprompt: -b | 23:42 |
| linux77537 | edit a file on my hdd | 23:42 |
| noah | int-main: are you sure there is no WiFi switch? Most laptops have them. | 23:43 |
| MonkeyDust | linux77537 a file in your /home? | 23:43 |
| the_count | int-main: What laptop do you have? | 23:43 |
| linux77537 | yep | 23:43 |
| AlexQ | int-main: Some have them as fn key + a F key I believe | 23:43 |
| int-main | There is a toggle switch with Fn key. It doesn't help noah | 23:43 |
| int-main | the_count: HP 15-n206tx | 23:43 |
| MonkeyDust | linux77537 that file isnt owned by root | 23:43 |
| linux77537 | then how do I edit it? | 23:43 |
| noah | No, I mean an actual switch on the side/front of the laptop. | 23:43 |
| linux77537 | Ive done it before but forgot how to ? | 23:44 |
| rampantphoto | inteus: so, in trying to set up my ssh key i did a "ps -ef | grep sshd" and i'm not sure what i'm seeing, but could that give any insight to my original issue? | 23:44 |
| MonkeyDust | linux77537 what type of file is it? edit it with its normal program | 23:44 |
| linux77537 | but I cant boot into my system | 23:44 |
| bprompt | int-main: many laptops have a WiFi switch or button or slider, either on the front left or right side, or on the sides, by the headphone jack or by the dvd drive bay | 23:44 |
| linux77537 | thats why I booted up a live CD | 23:44 |
| int-main | bprompt: I am 100% sure mine doesn't have that | 23:45 |
| bprompt | int-main: usually a push button, or a slider, and it usually has an orange or green signaling light next to it | 23:45 |
| MonkeyDust | linux77537 start from the beginning, what happened | 23:45 |
| AlexQ | int-main: Maybe try to hold this key combination for a second or two, I observed that I need to hold my physical switch in position for it to work oddly. Thought that there is a serious problem with the driver or sth, until I realised that holding for a sec helps. | 23:45 |
| bprompt | int-main: could be a Fn combination as well, turning off wifi | 23:45 |
| noah | int-main: Try deleting the connection, restarting the computer, and try again. You will need to reenter the password. | 23:45 |
| the_count | int-main: On the F12 key, is there a wifi signal icon? | 23:46 |
| int-main | noah: You are not getting me. It doesn't show any connection. It says Wifi disabled by hardware switch. I can't do anything with Wifi its like disabled. | 23:46 |
| bprompt | hint: "Wifi disabled by hardware switch." | 23:46 |
| bprompt | hehe | 23:46 |
| noah | Is the driver loaded properly? | 23:46 |
| int-main | noah: Kind of like http://karuppuswamy.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Screenshot-from-2012-08-16-210336.png | 23:47 |
| Avocado_ | When I do a command like /whois on irssi, nothing shows up, how come? | 23:47 |
| bprompt | int-main: check closely, maybe even an Fn combination, as aforementioned, the f12 sometimes, may have a light next to it, if it's orange, that means wifi is off | 23:47 |
| jose27 | hello | 23:47 |
| Na3iL | Just push the button or flip the switch or use the FN-key combo to manually enable your wireless. | 23:47 |
| int-main | bprompt: It is indeed orange but pressing it doesn't change it color. Doesn't do anything | 23:47 |
| bprompt | Avocado_: /whois nick or /whois channel or /who channel | 23:48 |
| AlexQ | int-main: So you're saying that function key combination doesn't work? Really, try holding it for a second or two instead of just pressing quickly. | 23:48 |
| int-main | bprompt: previosly it used to work with orange light anyway. | 23:48 |
| Avocado_ | bprompt, I do that, it doesnt show up anything | 23:48 |
| bprompt | int-main: ahhhh, so f12 light is orange, that measn wifi off :), by "hardware switch" | 23:48 |
| int-main | AlexQ: I have tried all sort of pressing. Quick press, hard press, long press. | 23:48 |
| Avocado_ | where should it show it? | 23:48 |
| Na3iL | int-main, use your terminal rfkill list all then lsmod | 23:48 |
| noah | I see ... Most problems are from the kernel/driver, is there any loaded modules (run 'modprobe | grep 'wireless'. It works for me :)) | 23:48 |
| Apteryx | Hi, I'd like to know if my ~/.profile file is supposed to be run by lightdm (at login) ? | 23:48 |
| the_count | int-main: So, you tried it pressing the fn key with the F* key? | 23:48 |
| OerHeks | Avocado_, maybe you need to register your nickname to access those tools | 23:49 |
| bprompt | int-main: got an [fn] key on the keyboard? as in between the [ctrl] and the winkey? | 23:49 |
| Avocado_ | OEP_, i am registered | 23:49 |
| int-main | bprompt: but as I said, I cannot do anything to change its color and previously the wifi used to work even when light was orange | 23:49 |
| noah | int-main: Yes | 23:49 |
| Apteryx | I got a bash script that is mapping buttons on a left hand mouse (using xinput) and it doesn't seem to get run, although the script is called from my ~/.profile file. | 23:49 |
| === annie is now known as Guest7392 | ||
| Avocado_ | OerHeks, weird, i also ahve this with weechat | 23:49 |
| Avocado_ | Does the result show in another window? | 23:49 |
| int-main | Na3iL: It works when the Wireless is soft blocked. Mine is hard blocked. I've already tried what you are saying, doesn't help | 23:49 |
| bprompt | int-main: yes, we understand that, BUT, the idea of that light there on that key, is not accidental, but is for a Fn key combination to turn it on or off | 23:49 |
| Na3iL | Avocado_, check the 1st tab "freenode" you will see the outputs of your commands. | 23:50 |
| bprompt | int-main: got an [fn] key on the keyboard? as in between the [ctrl] and the winkey? | 23:50 |
| Avocado_ | I dont have that tab, i run irssi from terminal right? | 23:50 |
| int-main | bprompt: Yes. I tried combo press with Fn key too if you are gonna ask me that | 23:50 |
| Na3iL | Yep, Avocado_ you will find the main tab | 23:50 |
| noah | int-main: Try another ISO to figure out if it is the ISO or the laptop. If you cand, try to load the ISO in another computer. Do you have wireless on that one? | 23:50 |
| Avocado_ | Its just one window and its the channel im in | 23:50 |
| Avocado_ | no other tabs :/ | 23:50 |
| Avocado_ | I feel like im missing something | 23:51 |
| int-main | noah: I tried two ISOs. Two different versions. | 23:51 |
| Na3iL | int-main, weird!! please let me know if you found a solution! | 23:51 |
| bprompt | Avocado_: then maybe irssi is not for you =), tried hexchat yet? many prefer that one | 23:51 |
| Avocado_ | bprompt, im on hexchat, i just want to make irssi work for me | 23:51 |
| int-main | I am trapped with Windows and i have no idea how to solve this problem. | 23:51 |
| Bashing-om | Avocado_: type ' /win 1 ' .. irssi by default sneds messages to thge status (win #1 ) window . | 23:51 |
| Acerio | bprompt: I use HexChat. Great client! | 23:51 |
| AlexQ | int-main: But bear in mind that if you press it again before checking, you might have switched on and then back off without realising. | 23:51 |
| Na3iL | +1 bprompt , try hexchat Avocado_ | 23:51 |
| noah | int-main: Then it must be the computer :( | 23:51 |
| Acerio | Avocado: What is wrong about HexChat, that makes you want to migrate? | 23:52 |
| the_count | Avocado_: Sometimes the best way to learn something is to use it | 23:52 |
| Acerio | the_count: Well said. | 23:52 |
| noah | Bye, Everyone! Be back in 1 hour ;) | 23:52 |
| int-main | noah: then why would it work on Windows? Questions keep coming up. | 23:52 |
| Acerio | See ya noah. | 23:52 |
| Avocado_ | the_count, I am using it atm | 23:52 |
| MonkeyDust | breaking and fixing things is a good way to learn | 23:52 |
| Acerio | Avocado_: Have you tried reading the wiki/documentation/tutorial? | 23:52 |
| Acerio | or messing around | 23:52 |
| bprompt | int-main: HP Pavilion 15-206tx right? | 23:52 |
| int-main | bprompt: thats right | 23:53 |
| Acerio | Avocado_: And what is wrong with HexChat anyways? | 23:53 |
| Bashing-om | the_count: Returning to launchpad for reading . | 23:53 |
| daftykins | VictoriaXOXO: and yes, since you're worried about a single piece of text on shutdown, i won't help :) | 23:53 |
| the_count | Avocado_: Well, keep using it. Learn it in and out, and by and by you will figure out all it has to offer | 23:53 |
| bprompt | int-main: hmmm yes, the [fn] key will be between the [ctrl] and winkey, check closely -> [fn], is it there? | 23:53 |
| Avocado_ | the_count, Ok, ill try to figure it out | 23:53 |
| the_count | Acerio: Thanks | 23:53 |
| int-main | bprompt: Yes it is. | 23:53 |
| Avocado_ | Is there any program that lets me take screenshots of my window and auto-uploads it? | 23:53 |
| Avocado_ | Which do you guys recommend | 23:53 |
| Acerio | Avocado_: Greenshot. | 23:53 |
| Acerio | Avocado_: Not sure if that is for Linux, it should be. | 23:54 |
| Avocado_ | Acerio, their website is down I see. | 23:54 |
| bprompt | int-main: well, there are two ctrl keys... the left one... ok... so.. .press [fn] and f12, hold [fn] and press f12, and wait, the light will turn green, meaning, wifi on | 23:54 |
| Na3iL | Avocado_, Shutter is a useful tool | 23:54 |
| Acerio | Avocado_: Oh yeah, database error. Maybe CNet has a copy, but they probably only have the Windows copy, unless you want to use wine. | 23:54 |
| the_count | Avocado_ Or, it would probably take just as much time to press the Print Screen button and upload it yourself | 23:54 |
| Avocado_ | Ill try shutter | 23:55 |
| Acerio | Avocado_: I'm not sure if Greenshot has a Linux version, but I'm 90% sure they do. | 23:55 |
| int-main | bprompt: I am sorry man. I've tried those things already. | 23:55 |
| the_count | int-main: Take a picture of the keyboard if you could... | 23:55 |
| bprompt | int-main: ok, no biggie, meaning you have "media keys" ON in bios... so, press the [f12] by itself then, and wait | 23:56 |
| the_count | Bashing-om: I appreciate your efforts | 23:56 |
| int-main | bprompt: Tried that too. | 23:56 |
| Na3iL | and Avocado_ follow the 1st answer to know how to make Shutter do auto-uploads.. :) https://askubuntu.com/questions/177921/whats-a-screenshot-application-which-will-auto-upload-to-imgur | 23:56 |
| the_count | int-main: Have you tried holding down [f12] by itself for a while to change? | 23:57 |
| Avocado_ | Na3iL, doesn't uploading to imgur automatically make it public? | 23:57 |
| Avocado_ | Like, people can browse in newly uploaded images and will see it? | 23:57 |
| bprompt | int-main: well, is not software, from what we can tell, so, the drivers are loaded so far we can tell, it's a hardware issue, and pretty sure is the [fn] switch, since I also have a pavillion | 23:57 |
| === annie_ is now known as Guest000 | ||
| Na3iL | Yep sure Avocado_ | 23:57 |
| Acerio | Avocado_: No, by default it should be unlisted, unless people have the URL. | 23:57 |
| Acerio | Avocado_: But that can be changed. | 23:58 |
| int-main | bprompt: I don't understand. Out of the blue it stopped working, I install Windows and Wireless is fine | 23:58 |
| int-main | I guess I will have to live with Windows for a while | 23:58 |
| bprompt | int-main: it might take some pressing, then waiting a few a few times, but pretty sure is the [fn]+[f12] combination | 23:58 |
| Na3iL | You can use it anonymously Avocado_ | 23:58 |
| Acerio | ^ | 23:58 |
| bprompt | int-main: so... booting in windows it works? you didn't mention that before | 23:58 |
| the_count | int-main: Can you turn on and shut off wifi with the key combination in windows? | 23:58 |
| int-main | bprompt: I did. I said if it works fine in Windows then it isn't hardware. | 23:59 |
| freakyy | i wonder ... if i should install ubuntu on my hdd. ... i have an ssd but not enough room for ubuntu on it sadly ;( | 23:59 |
| int-main | the_count: yes. Absolutely. | 23:59 |
| Acerio | freakyy: Get a minimal build of Ubuntu. | 23:59 |
| dersand | I'm not sure where to adresss this question. But i got a lost android device, it's online and somehow has an internet connection. I'm wondering if i can set-up some SSH-server on that device by installing some app from the play store. | 23:59 |
| the_count | int-main: Exactly how do you do that? | 23:59 |
