[00:03] k1l_: Wait. "sudo apt-get autoremove" or "sudo apt-get autoremove libreoffice"? [00:03] a) [00:03] k1l_: How does that know to remove LibreOffice? :o [00:03] VictoriaXOXO: check out "man autoremove" [00:04] uum, man apt-get of course [00:04] VictoriaXOXO: autoremove removes packages that are not marked as needed by other packages. [00:05] AlexQ: Under systend it is "systenctl" to control services; See : http://xmodulo.com/use-systemd-system-administration-debian.html . [00:05] k1l_: I'm sorry for being stupid, but is LibreOffice the ONLY thing that is not needed by other packages? I don't understand how that command can now to just remove LibreOffice and nothing else. [00:05] VictoriaXOXO: that is the magic of the package-system [00:06] AlexQ: Typos // systen/system* . [00:06] VictoriaXOXO: have a read: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto [00:06] k1l_: Would you get upset if I just try "sudo apt-get autoremove libreoffice*" instead? [00:07] so apparently if I set my hardware acceleration in xorg config to UXA the problem with my graphics freezing up when in full screen goes away [00:07] buuuuut the lag is unbearable [00:07] VictoriaXOXO: That is not a correct syntax [00:07] anyone else ever deal with this or know where I should go to get answers? [00:07] AlexQ: Why not? [00:07] k1l_: I'll read. [00:07] VictoriaXOXO: autoremove doesn't require nor accept package list [00:07] autoremove does not take a package as a parameter [00:07] learn to read man pages. [00:07] Ahhhh. [00:07] AlexQ: it does accept packages [00:08] Oh, lord. XD [00:08] VictoriaXOXO, are you writing a book? [00:08] OerHeks: feels like it doesn't it, "100 ways to perform pointless actions on Ubuntu" [00:08] k1l_: So what does it do when you pass a package name then? [00:08] OerHeks: No. Why would you think that? :P [00:09] VictoriaXOXO: you really should start to use manpages. that will answer 99% of what you are asking about programs. [00:09] OerHeks: :D :D [00:09] daftykins: And then YOU pm ME about making snarky remakrs? Come on... ;) [00:09] !manpage | VictoriaXOXO [00:09] VictoriaXOXO: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | Manpages online: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/ [00:09] I do, "things not to do with Ubuntu" [00:09] very frustrating :< [00:09] AlexQ: same as ap-get remove package, apt-get autoremove. just in one step [00:09] i'm allowed (: [00:09] So am I. [00:09] k1l_: Hm, interesting, not in the man page I guess. [00:10] k1l_: AlexQ: daftykins: So does autoremove accept package names or not? [00:10] read the man page and find out first hand [00:11] Lol. [00:11] what? it's how we learned things, why can't you? [00:11] AlexQ: it doesnt explicitly tell you that, right. [00:12] 95% of the time this "support" channel is just like a find-it-out-for-yourself-kick-in-the-butt. [00:12] For elitists to feel good about themselves. [00:12] Still SOME helpful people, though. [00:12] VictoriaXOXO: we try to help you help yourself. we want you to solve your issues on your own in the future so we can help new beginners to get used to ubuntu. [00:12] No, for people with serious problems to have a chance to get help. [00:12] k1l_: Yes, I know, but I didn't point that towards you. [00:13] AlexQ: You tell me to read the man page when it's not even in there. You're spreading FUD. [00:13] VictoriaXOXO: man apt-get [00:13] VictoriaXOXO: The function of "autoremove" is well explained in "man apt-get". [00:13] pauljw: I'm reading the link k1l_ gave me. :) [00:13] hi all. why does vim when i use arrow keys print Ds etc. and and backspace doesnt work and so on? [00:14] VictoriaXOXO: it's not elitist, it's pointing out how you refuse to learn how to learn for yourself [00:14] can i do somethin aobut it? [00:14] VictoriaXOXO: no need to make a drama about it and offend volunteer helpers in here. [00:14] VictoriaXOXO: we have been very very very patient. its time to learn to fly now :) [00:14] .. [00:15] freakyy: But have you used vim before and it worked well? [00:15] AlexQ: no fresh install [00:16] freakyy: But I mean, do you know *how* to use vim? Because it is a bit different. For something simpler and more intuitive try nano. [00:16] daftykins: k1l_: What is the point of this channel or ANY forum or whatever out there? Everything has already been asked and everything has already been answered. People should just isolate themselves and use search engines to solve their problems. Right? [00:16] VictoriaXOXO: no need for drama now [00:16] AlexQ: i know how vim works yes [00:16] k1l_: That was my last question regarding this. :) [00:16] it works on my server [00:16] i googled it i might find help there thank you [00:16] :) [00:17] VictoriaXOXO: i think someone needs to grow up and stop acting so entitled. [00:17] VictoriaXOXO: because people like interaction [00:17] let's move on now. [00:17] VictoriaXOXO: we cant keep everyone in here asking us to read the manpages for them. so we try to educate them to help themselves. if they still have issues they are free to ask here of course. [00:17] remember, if you have any issues with the volunteer support, you are absolutely welcome to request a refund [00:17] k1l_: I need to adress what daftykins just said. daftykins: Dude. You threaten me in private messages and then you act the same way back? LOL! [00:17] :D [00:18] I'm done now. [00:18] VictoriaXOXO: if you want to continue this please do so at #ubuntu-discuss [00:18] VictoriaXOXO: just imagine every ubuntu user would still in here ask the easiest things. this would be a very full channel and a very noisy one. [00:18] latrodectus: Nope. I'm done. [00:18] ^ #ubuntu-discuss [00:18] k1l_: Easy according to whom, though? ;) [00:19] k1l_ | VictoriaXOXO | anyone_else_inSthis_discussion [00:19] users capable of using a search engine [00:19] latrodectus: Nope. We're done now. :) [00:21] #join e.kr === chase is now known as Guest9116 [00:27] AlexQ: got it working. [00:27] guys, is there a fast way to add desktop icons? like a desktop icon creator? [00:29] freakyy, i think you need unity-tweak for that [00:29] !info unity-tweak [00:29] Package unity-tweak does not exist in wily [00:29] lemme apt-cache search it [00:30] -tool [00:30] !info unity-tweak-tool [00:30] unity-tweak-tool (source: unity-tweak-tool): configuration tool for the Unity desktop environment. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.0.6ubuntu3 (wily), package size 325 kB, installed size 2353 kB [00:31] OerHeks: hm, i installed it but where can i add icons now? === Ornacia is now known as Deez_Nuts [00:33] hmm not sure, i thought that tool unlocks it [00:34] OerHeks: unlocks what? [00:34] the option to place desktop icons [00:35] Bashing-om: Any progress with the upgrade-related smooth scrolling issue? I am switching to the fresh install either way, the old one is just... slow. Especially booting, but dunno why, maybe will check with systemctl these systemctl tools out of interest [00:36] OerHeks: no the problem is, i always have to manually create desktop icon files. i dont want that. i want an automated way. [00:39] AlexQ: Naww .. slow on the learning curve here ..Still in progress with the_count . [00:39] Bashing-om: Interestingly, smooth scrolling works flawlessly in crash report windows (on that upgraded OS) :D I mean, with no jitter. [00:40] Bashing-om: My gut tells me it is related to some gtk libs or sth, not necessarily drivers or Xorg. But I am leaving that now, my old OS has other problems as well [00:40] AlexQ: Adds to the notion it is a lost in translation thing - somewhere . [00:43] Bashing-om: Ok... back [00:45] ok i dotn know - my vim is messed up. if i press i then backspace it doesnt erase if i press arrow keys it prints B and Ds into the file. i cant edit like this. can anyone tell me what i should add into vimrc file to fix this? [00:46] freakyy: set nocompatible [00:47] somsip: thank you so much ;D lemme see if it works [00:47] is th .vimrc in ~/.vimrc? [00:47] in ubuntu? [00:47] freakyy: in everything === vhadil is now known as vhadilo [00:50] thank you very much - it worked :) [00:50] freakyy: aye. It'll do that [00:50] why dont they do this by default [00:50] i have to set it every time [00:50] freakyy: http://superuser.com/questions/543317/what-is-compatible-mode-in-vim [00:51] Hello [00:51] the_count: Re-install ' sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-headers-3.19.0-33 ; sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-headers-3.19.0-33-generic ; sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-3.19.0-33-generic ; sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-extra-3.19.0-33-generic ' .

So, it can connect to the internet and download files, but when I do ifconfig my adress is 127.0.0.1. Any ideas how? [00:53] Bashing-om: Wait a second... I am in the -53 kernel currently... And, is there any other precausions we should make to make sure it is completeley removed? [00:53] is there any way i can watch a package for updates? like the fglrx and fglrx-updates packages [00:53] Does it take on the IP of the machine I am running [00:56] every 3 seconds i see a modal popup with the title: OpenSSH. it ask me for the password of a my server. no matter what i type it opens again which makes my laptop unusable until i disconnect from the internet. any clues? [00:56] the_count: I have extermne difficulty keeping up with what you think . You told me earlier that you were booting a 3.16 kernel ! . // I confirmed from your last paste that the 3.19.0-33 was all removed ( or so I thought). [00:56] (currently i use another laptop) [00:57] Any ideas on why when I have full internet on my Ubuntu Server but no ipv4 ip? I do ifconfig and it says it's 127.0.0.1 :( [00:58] Bashing-om: You are thinking correctly, just wannted to make sure we were doing everything right since the separations in time between this [00:59] the_count: K .. see your " http://paste.ubuntu.com/13459048/ " 3.19.0-33 is gone gone . [01:00] Bashing-om: Ok... Would it be a good idea to reboot before reinstalling the new kernel? [01:01] Nick714: could you share an "ip a" in a pastebin? PM it if you're worried about sharing [01:02] the_count: Wont't hurt to reboot .. but, I do not see how it will help .. but .. could be cheap insurance to reboot prior . [01:03] Bashing-om: Ok, rebooting, then i'll do this [01:03] daftykins: I will but one question... When I do "ifconfig" the lo is basically connected to nothing and eth0 has an IP. So lo is wifi I think and it is connected to my Mac's internet, is it basically connected to my Mac sort of through Ethernet which is why it's in eth0? [01:04] Nick714: lo is loopback, 127.0.0.1 [01:04] or ::1 for v6 [01:05] daftykins: Ok I will PM you the ip a, can I blur out the inet adress (thats the IP right? [01:05] Bashing-om: Ok... Shall I now reinstall? [01:05] Nick714: err, a v4 on which interface? [01:06] the_count: Yepper .. re-install the 3.19.0-33 kernel . [01:06] how can you save that firefox saved the html5 by default. It always goes back to the flash player [01:07] blah* [01:07] seriously?

[01:26] Bashing-om: Beat you [01:26] hi, it seems my archive file is broken. Does anybody know what went wrong with this archive file? http://imgur.com/a/5ibqx (First image is the main directory, following two are the subfolders) -- When I transferred it originally it was just the 108.MOV file which was 3.7GB, but it split into that weird encryption folder which is 3.7GB and the 108.MOV is now 0 bytes? Is there a way to fix this, if not is there a way to recover just a portion of the data inst [01:26] ead of the whole so the video is somewhat watchable? [01:26] Hey, when yer fast ,, yer fast :) . [01:27] the_count: oh right, which is confirmed working in another OS such as Windows? [01:31] daftykins: Yes [01:32] daftykins: i'll beback in 10 min and you can question[crossthrough]interogate me some more [01:33] heh ok [01:35] Anyone encountered the hd format bug when installing where the formatting is stuck at 33%? Currently can't install kubuntu... I tried to wipe the hd with gparted but didn't help [01:38] cooldman224: did you delete partitions only, or more? [01:39] daftykins: I deleted all partitions on the hd [01:39] ok, that will have left the partition table [01:39] which kind of system is this? anything special about it? laptop/desktop/VM ? [01:40] a desktop. so i need to wipe the partition table as well? [01:40] possibly, do you know for sure that your downloaded ISO was good - and that your prepared flash drive/DVD is good also? [01:41] i know ISO is good because i used to install on the vm. the flash drive has had issues from time to time [01:41] hmm ok, are you installing EFI/legacy/what the hell is that? [01:41] legacy BIOS [01:42] cool, do you get the 'check disc/media' option on the main menu after boot? [01:42] like on the grub menu? [01:43] not 100% with kubuntu media, but standard ubuntu would ask you for a language then have try/install/check/memtest/boot from HDD [01:44] right right [01:44] just let theinstaller use the whole dic, it will generate a fres mbr. [01:46] yeah i make separate partitions for certain mount points [01:46] i guess i can try the whole disc then reinstall to my liking? [01:48] and i dont see any option to check the media. just loaded up the iso on a vm [01:49] cooldman224: no harm in running "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M count=5" to nuke the disk fully [01:49] wouldn't hurt to test install in the VM :> [01:50] well i did a test install on the vm as a trial for kubuntu, if thats what you mean? [01:50] ja [01:50] ok so good ISO, questionable flash drive [01:50] daftykins: back [01:52] \o [01:52] i started to wonder if your touchpad were a model that doesn't even support that, but Windows rules that out - so i've nothing to add i'm afraid [01:52] i don't use desktop so i dont really have any experience with touchpad issues - also i've shared what little i did have with Bashing-om :) [01:53] Hello everyone, does anyone know how to change language at thunderbird. I tried googling but didnt help me. I need thunderbird with a specific language. [01:53] daftykins: See, it did work with the 3.16.0-33 kernel.... That's what makes it super strange [01:56] the_count: and if you boot that one even now, it works fine... just anything newer and it's basic features only? [01:56] check [01:56] daftykins: Pretty much... [01:57] the_count: it requires more work after boot? [01:57] (boot of the -33 kernel) [01:57] daftykins: The only thing wrong with that kernel is that the trackpad was very jumppy... It was hard to get the mouse over something and click [01:57] hi all. i currently have ubuntu installed. if i now install kubuntu-desktop, how can i get the ubuntu start splash back? [01:57] the_count: also, do you mean 3.19.0-33? [01:58] j#ubunntu-ca-vn [01:59] daftykins: Actually, i meant 3.13.0-33, not 3.16 ~ that one it works fine except for jumpy mouse... Anything later, and those features are gone but the jumpy mouse problem is fixed [02:00] the_count: ok, i think i saw you try vivid kernels too, the 3.19 set? [02:00] daftykins: Yes, we were on 3.16 onto 3.19, but the same issue [02:01] and 4.2 from 15.10 ? [02:01] daftykins: The highest we have tried is 3.19.0-30 [02:02] wouldn't hurt to download a 15.10 ISO and test it out in the live session booted from USB flash drive? [02:02] the_count: You are supposed to at this point be booting and trying 3.19.0-33 . [02:02] daftykins: Probably not [02:03] Bashing-om: That is what I am in [02:03] Bashing-om, daftykins: http://trustdarkness.com/wordpress/dell-sputnik-xps-13-touchpad-settings-not-working-in-updated-ubuntumint/ [02:04] https://askubuntu.com/questions/701315/keyboard-input-meathods-ibus-crashed-and-icons-randomly-rearranging help?

Where can i find where thunderbird files are. I want to place the thunderbird in my language and i need to change the files. So where are thunderbird files located. I am new at linux [02:07] daftykins: Can you help me find out what's happening here? https://askubuntu.com/questions/701315/keyboard-input-meathods-ibus-crashed-and-icons-randomly-rearranging [02:08] the_count: Keep in mind, if we were not aware of it .. we would not know of it .. Maybe no fix .. not much for doing things blindly - but might prove of some value in the failure (?) . [02:08] Bashing-om: ?? [02:10] Bashing-om: So shall I try it? [02:10] RoundDuckMan: 15.10? [02:10] the_count: We can try the ”quiet splash i8042.nopnp” echo “blacklist i2c_hid” | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/i2c-hid.conf as per daftykins' blog . It is reversable . [02:10] daftykins: 14.04.3 [02:11] Bashing-om: Ok... I'll try it // if something goes wrong I hope we all agree daftykins takes the blame [02:11] that said, I noticed lots of bugs in general on 14.04-based anything, including mainline Ubuntu. [02:12] the_count: http://www.techblo.gg/?p=301 . Nope .. like I say .. It is but a possibility .. but I do not hold my breath . [02:12] Bashing-om: ok, rebooting [02:12] woohoo for the blame \o/ [02:12] RoundDuckMan: then i'm afraid all i see is paranoid concerns and nothing to really get worried about [02:13] RoundDuckMan: pretty sure hackers don't break in and then arrange your icons [02:13] daftykins: How come you do not get the blame when it is a great solution ?? [02:14] Bashing-om: Rebooted, nothing [02:14] pro .. the french might have an answer http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/lenovo_yoga_2_pro [02:15] OerHeks: Problem... I seem to have forgotten my frence... :D [02:15] the_count: I "thought" you were in favor of making the edit to grub and blacklisting ? [02:15] I'm paranoid because I got OCD. But if you want me to, I got video proof of things that happened, like ibus crashing for no reason. :/ [02:15] huh [02:15] just click on translate in google or bing. but basicly i think it is pretty readable. [02:15] trying to add a new user on a new ubuntu installation. i did: adduser deweydb sudo, but it gives me: adduser: The user `deweydb' does not exist. [02:16] Bashing-om: ~ [02:16] RoundDuckMan: i don't think that believing in particular social nuances makes concerns about ones computer software installation more or less justified. run a "sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade" then be happy :) [02:16] RoundDuckMan: the 4.2 kernel in 14.04 is meant for testing purposes until it becomes part of the stable enablement stack for 14.04.4 [02:16] Bashing-om: I'm not upset or anything [02:17] Bashing-om: i don't think anyone really wants to try to dent the armour on my cookie suit anyway ;) [02:17] RoundDuckMan: and maybe you installed other software that changed that settings? [02:17] daftykins: Well how still that ibus crashes, plus I'm using 4.2 kernel because 3.19 and 3.13 has flaky Intel Wifi connections. [02:18] you should tell that in your Q on askubuntu :-) [02:18] and that I'm a little lazy to delete the 3.19 kernels so I can use 3.16 by default, lol. [02:18] RoundDuckMan: who knows. 2am now though so i'm afraid it's beyond my time to consider looking into it - plus i don't like to deal with modified systems [02:19] 3.16 should definitely be removed. [02:19] the_count: read http://www.techblo.gg/?p=301 and offer your comment, please . [02:19] Oerheks, daftykins, Bashing-om: There is things like this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/367963/ubuntu-on-lenovo-yoga-2-pro which I don't follow all the instructions because I don't understand them fully... acpi_backlight for instance [02:19] What's wrong with 3.16? Isn't it supported until 2016? [02:19] Bashing-om: You want me to post a comment? [02:20] utopic is ancient, i'd kill it with fire. support status doesn't concern me [02:20] Plus how is 4.2 [02:20] is testing and not finished when it's in wily [02:20] Bashing-om: You see... I never understood what I was doing [02:20] want 15.10's kernel? install 15.10 [02:20] or wait for the (proper) wily HWE for 14.04 [02:21] Bashing-om: So, let's reverse what I just did [02:21] Uhh, ok. [02:21] the_count: I am tired .. do not want to do this any longer . please read the link . and decide what you want to do ... I have seen similar in several places . We pick this back up at a later time . [02:21] Bashing-om: Ok :D Sleep well [02:22] daftykins: So basically you're saying that because I'm using a different kernel, ibus crashed and icons rearranged? [02:22] the change to systemD might be your issue, using a wily kernel on trusty. [02:22] RoundDuckMan: no i'm saying because your setup is non-standard and because it's my bed time, i can't help you tonight [02:22] daftykins: sorry for bugging you then. [02:22] heh [02:23] i guess kernel rollback is the fix. but not for your wireless :-( [02:23] can always drag back a newer iwlwifi perhaps [02:24] trottle it back to 54 mbit. might be an option, ugly. [02:25] if someone released a .deb (without PPA sadly) and then released another .deb (also without PPA) is it necessary to uninstall/reinstall, or can i just overwrite? [02:25] i.e. install over the previous one [02:26] regedit: i'd remove then install for sure, backing up configs before, too [02:26] regedit: did that recently with vagrant here and didn't have a problem just installing over the previous, probably wouldn't hurt to remove it first but I believe it's just unpackaging the files into place and running any post extract scripts [02:26] regedit, if the upgrade specs are followed, no. [02:26] I'm just worried that when I install an OS myself, that I accidentally install some hacked version, so I obsess over md5 and sha 1/256 sums, freak out, and even when I know things are fine, then with all the Linux malware and vulnerabilities being reported, I freak out even more, and then I just then go back to Windows because at least I know it pr [02:26] obably got installed in right by a well known company, unless it's Leveno. :P [02:26] And then [02:26] (wow) ok thanks for the answers guys [02:27] Crap, pressed enter on accident again [02:28] And then I begin worrying about Windows stuff too, then I just begin not using my PC for months, and just use my basic phone or maybe console. :( [02:29] *basic phone as in weak smart phone [02:31] I just upgraded to 15.10 and now my Firefox is flaky [02:32] I get apparmor denied errors for one [02:32] plugin_container segfaults from Chrome_ChildThr [02:33] I installed lighttpd and I want to set document-root to a mounted NTFS drive, but when I do it in lighttpd.conf, I can't access any files - I get 403 - access denied. No idea why, really. Any quick fix? [02:33] on2: file a bug mate [02:34] Ok.... Goodnight all [02:34] on2: or try to create a new user, test firefox from there [02:34] AlexQ: sounds like perhaps the http process doesn't have read privileges for the NTFS drive, might be an issue since the NTFS drive won't have Unix friendly permissions [02:34] lotuspsychje, yes that may be it...maybe I have to get rid of my rc files [02:34] wafflejock1: But when I go to the NTFS drive everything has 777 mods... [02:35] wafflejock1: I had a similar setup on my 15.04 installation without problems. NTFS is mounted as /media/alex/Label [02:36] wafflejock1: But maybe that is related to the userspace mouting of the drive? I'll check what happens when I use mount myself [02:38] Why can't I "su www-data" ? Is that user somehow locked? I wanted to check if I can access that drive as www-data or not. [02:38] Nope... [02:38] on2: same on new user? [02:38] It was OK until this damned "Use Reader View!" popped up [02:38] oh well...I am using chromium which has been fine...I'll see how it goes [02:39] on2: got the right graphics driver enabled? [02:39] My drive is mounted as "/dev/sda5 on /media/alex/Dane type fuseblk(rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096,uhelper=udisks2)" [02:39] It was working on 15.04 [02:39] For months [02:39] There is "allow_other" there [02:39] just double-click automount. What the hell? [02:40] on2: upgrades can get tricky sometimes [02:40] AlexQ: then you can't not as uid and gid 0 [02:40] permissions 101 :) [02:41] on2: try launch firefox from terminal, see what errors you getting === Guest49618 is now known as bewbs [02:42] daftykins: Sorry, lost there - don't know what these fuseblk parameters mean precisely - the owner of all the files? drwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex 24576 lis 23 03:17 Dane. Isn't uid 0 guid 0 root root? [02:43] yeah so if mounted with root perms, www-data can't touch it [02:43] unless ownership etc are adjusted and honoured [02:43] Is there away to turn on the ability for totem to resize? [02:43] daftykins: But it is mounted just by double clicking on the drive icon on the desktop, no root involved. === xubuntu is now known as Guest58418 [02:43] lotuspsychje, (firefox:20988): GStreamer-WARNING **: External plugin loader failed. This most likely means that the plugin loader helper binary was not found or could not be run. You might need to set the GST_PLUGIN_SCANNER environment variable if your setup is unusual. This should normally not be required though. [02:44] AlexQ: yeah I hate that to. [02:44] AlexQ: not good [02:44] hi, I'm having horrible install trouble of 14.04.3. The installer fails every time with"We're sorry, the installer crashed". I've tried 3 different USB flash drives, two different target hard drives, done memtest, checked ISO hash. what's going wrong? [02:45] Guest58418: download it again [02:45] log output: http://pastebin.com/S8Cz6h08 [02:45] Guest58418: crash at wich point? [02:46] near the end [02:46] You using 64 on 32 machine [02:46] daftykins: Not good? You mean I need to use /etc/fstab? I don't mind the mouting being temporary, it is just to stream some vids on my smartphone, just the easiest wya [02:46] way* [02:46] Guest58418: how did you create the usb [02:48] it's 64 bit [02:48] I created disk using dd [02:48] the disk creator doesn't work [02:49] AlexQ: then copy the files? [02:49] what's the file system on said disk? [02:49] daftykins: NTFS [02:49] a [02:49] like: dd if=filename.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1M [02:50] daftykins: I did it before on 15.04 without any issues, the very same partition mounted from userspace, no /etc/fstab entry. [02:50] can backbox have the same repo as ubuntu? [02:50] daftykins: My /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13467231/ [02:50] AlexQ: well that's not what i'm saying, but the file ownership on the path you're trying to access from your chosen web server [02:50] nope not important; "ls -al /path/to/mounted/disk/" [02:52] daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13467335/ [02:52] daftykins: And when I do http://localhost/test.txt I get HTTP 403 [02:53] your lighttpd runs as which user? [02:53] www-data [02:53] daftykins: Just can't get my head around that. Maybe lighttpd doesn't allow access to files of other users' files even if their permissions allow that? [02:53] so then that test file needs to be owned as www-data:www-data ; or www-data needs to be a member of group 'alex' [02:54] though you tried to 777 haha [02:55] daftykins: Why if the permissions are rwxrwxrwx everywhere. I didn't do it, it was like that automatically. [02:55] 1) does it hurt to try 2) do you have a better idea? 3) sharing from NTFS = you're gonna have a bad time :) [02:55] anyway i have to leave now, so can't check your server config [02:56] Could I try to run the server as myself? alex alex in lighttpd.conf? [02:57] Or then the server wouldn't have permission to open sockets i.e. listen on 80? [02:58] Hi Folks - I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but I am having difficulties with Komposer. When I load one of my webpages into it, at first the page looks fine, but if I try to scroll down, the page becomes split into "strips" which overlay each other and blink constantly, about twice a second. This only started happening recently with Komposer, and ONLY occurs with Komposer, no other software on my computer. Any ideas/su [02:58] AlexQ: not my personal favourite, but knock yourself out ; fwiw i think what you're doing is heavily flawed [03:03] daftykins: LOL, it works. But only after I gave 777 mods to /var/log/lighttpd :D [03:05] haha, sounds like the server couldn't even start from having no write perms to its' log path [03:05] o^O [03:05] don't use 777. ever. [03:05] daftykins: But I think it is ugly, obviously. Yeah, I guessed that. Well, these are only logs [03:05] still! [03:07] daftykins: I think maybe lighttpd limits access to files in www-data by default, group even if their mods allow access to them. There was some message about users-something when installing (?) [03:08] AlexQ: maybe the ##httpd guys might also know? [03:08] Well, lighttpd maybe [03:08] cause the way it is now is ugly [03:09] . [03:12] actually it's #lighttpd [03:12] Hello, I am trying to upgrade from ubuntu 14.10 to 15.04, I followed the instruction on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VividUpgrades, when I do a dist-upgrade, it says there is no upgrades. Could some one help me with this. [03:16] could some one help me out with the upgrade from Ubuntu 14.10 to 15.04? I had tried the documentation available on the net but am not able to succeed. some inputs would be very much appreciated! [03:17] I had been at it for almost a week, without any success. [03:18] How do I mount an NTFS drive so that everyone has read permissions to it? [03:18] cdshan: why do you want to? [03:19] Ben64: because, ubuntu 14.10 is no longer supported with updates [03:19] AlexQ: ask your issue in ##httpd they have more experience for this [03:19] cdshan: whoops my mistake, read that as 14.04 to 15.04 [03:20] !eolupgrade | cdshan [03:20] cdshan: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [03:20] lotuspsychje: Is ##httpd for Apache only or all http daemons? [03:21] daftykins: Well, I think it is related to the NTFS drive though, you were right that these permissions are messed up. I reverted lighttpd.conf to original settings running it as www-data www-data, made a folder in my home directory, with read permissions, made a test.txt file inside it and it is accessible via HTTP. Strange though [03:21] AlexQ: they have more experience in all kind of daemons [03:21] AlexQ: daftykins is afk [03:22] I know, just saying for future reference [03:24] ubottu: I tried the links you provied, after the initial updates to the existing version, it says no new updated found, even a dist-upgrade does not work [03:24] cdshan: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) === debian is now known as Guest58620 [03:25] gsharkdown download and install the package should enable permission to run it as a program, opening gives me the following error, [03:25] GrooveShark service has probably changed! [03:25] gSharkDown will not function properly, so please be patient until we find a solution. [03:26] cdshan: try a clean install mate [03:27] how I do [03:27] lotuspsychje: I just wanted to see if there is a way to upgrade rather than a clean install from the scratch [03:27] cdshan: upgrade from eol is always a risk mate [03:27] cdshan: did you change your repositories [03:28] cdshan: you dont know what intruded in your system as security holes [03:28] Ben64: do you mean from the old..... back to utopic? [03:29] cdshan: no.. like it says in the link to old-releases.ubuntu.whatever [03:30] Ben64: I did that and all the instructions that follow it. A few updates were installed and then when we do an upgrade, its says there are no upgardes === alek is now known as Guest94305 [03:30] cdshan: did you do "sudo apt-get update" "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and "sudo do-release-upgrade" [03:30] lotuspsychje: I do understand your concern, will do a clean install if all else fails. [03:31] daftykins: Hahaha, I know why. Because permissions for /media/alex are drwxr-x---+ [03:31] Ben64: yes all of those [03:31] cdshan: run them again, and pastebin the output [03:31] Ben64: give me a moment [03:32] How can I download gnome-tweak? [03:33] nitish: sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool [03:34] daftykins: chmod o+rx /media/alex and now it works well. Are these mods for user-media dir intentional? Even as Ubuntu mounts using allow_others flag by default? Maybe that's a bug? [03:34] AlexQ: daftykins is afk, spare it until he's back [03:34] AlexQ: you should add it to fstab and have it mounted somewhere not in /media/you [03:35] Ben64: It is a single-user laptop setup, just for sharing files, so I think it is allright. Just wondering if it is intentional to have such mods for /media/user ? [03:36] AlexQ: why are you sharing files with a http server [03:37] Streaming videos in LAN [03:37] lotuspsychje: thanks. [03:37] can I make terminal transparent in gnome-shell 3.10.4? [03:37] nitish: terminal profile settings [03:37] Ben64: Behind NAT, so nothing risky I guess. [03:38] lotuspsychje: i can make terminal transparent in default ubuntu ui(unity) but unable to do it in gnome-shell. [03:39] nitish: maybe the #ubuntu-gnome guys know [03:41] How can I add new workspace? [03:44] night night [03:45] When I type docker I get a message that docker is not installed, when I wanna install it with apt-get it says latest version is installed [03:45] what's the problem? [03:45] nicolas_leonidas: is it in your path? [03:45] Ben64: the output of the dist-upgrade http://pastebin.com/uEJu4S9P [03:46] LambdaComplex: problem is I don't know where it's installed so I can't check [03:47] nicolas_leonidas: hm...try `whereis docker` [03:48] wow, that's a new command? output => docker: [03:48] Ben64: I could post the sources.list file if you want on pastebin [03:48] nicolas_leonidas: eh, it only works for stuff in your path though...which it apparently isn't [03:49] nicolas_leonidas: okay, try `find / | grep docker` [03:50] I think I found what the problem is, the package is docker.io not docker http://www.liquidweb.com/kb/how-to-install-docker-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts/ [03:50] cdshan: I find it best to revert all PPAs to repo versions . Won't hurt to check your sources . [03:52] Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/d5wgce6n [03:52] cdshan: Look'n . [03:54] cdshan: Looks good so far; anything on the 3rd party directpry ' tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ' ? [03:58] Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/FZdj7xAN [03:58] Is there any other ui available in ubuntu like gnome-shell? [03:59] cdshan: so 15 minutes after i asked, you pastebinned 1/3 of what i asked for? [03:59] cdshan: I be a while checking all those . be back soonest . [04:01] Ben64: I had been doing it one by one, by the way, what are the other two you wanted me to pastebin? [04:01] wow, lot of ppa's .. [04:01] cdshan: mixing 13.10, 14.04, and 14.10 repositories isn't a good idea [04:02] Nov 22 2015 19:30:50 cdshan: did you do "sudo apt-get update" "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and "sudo do-release-upgrade" [04:02] yes, I could pastebin the output of all the three now [04:03] you couldn't before? [04:03] nitish: you can install any desktop environment/window manager that you want... [04:03] !desktop [04:03] A desktop environment is what "puts the pieces of a !GUI together". The available desktop environments in Ubuntu are !GNOME (ubuntu-desktop), !KDE (kubuntu-desktop), !Xfce (xubuntu-desktop), !LXDE (lubuntu-desktop), IceWM, !Fluxbox, WindowMaker (wmaker), FVWM and others - See also !Flavors [04:04] LambdaComplex: can you please give me some examples of desktop environment/window manager which are available.? [04:04] Currently I've unity & gnome-shell. [04:04] i3 [04:04] nitish: Off the top of my head? KDE, XFCE, and LXDE. Cinnamon should work just fine as well. [04:05] i3 and BSPWM are both good choices for tiling window managers. [04:05] cdshan: Ben64 : Shold not this " http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/ownCloud:/desktop/ Ubuntu_14.04/ / " be edited to " Ubuntu_15.04/ / ? It is supported in 15.04 . [04:05] OerHeks: You win a <3 from me [04:05] Openbox is good if you want a standalone stacking window manager [04:05] Ben64:http://pastebin.com/Z3yZNr57 [04:06] And, just to name some more window managers because I feel like it...DWM, ratpoison, twm, wmutils, herbstluftwm, awesomewm, xmonad [04:06] ... mate :-D [04:06] Shit, how did I forget mate? [04:06] Bashing-om: I could uninstall that App as I am not using that at the moment [04:07] * LambdaComplex begs for forgiveness from the gtk2 gods [04:07] language... [04:07] !flavors [04:07] !Ubuntu-GNOME, !Kubuntu, !Xubuntu and !Lubuntu are simply flavors of Ubuntu that come with GNOME, KDE, Xfce, and LXDE (respectively) installed as default, instead of Unity. Other specialized flavors of Ubuntu include !Edubuntu, Ubuntu !Studio, and !Mythbuntu. [04:07] no mate-desktop there either.. [04:07] OerHeks: I named all those already :P [04:07] Ooh, how about LXQT? Is that still a thing? [04:08] cdshan: try "do-release-upgrade -d" and maybe you should stick to LTS versions so you don't have to upgrade so often [04:08] cdshan: It is supported, so should not present a problem .. however, I can not verify " deb https://private-ppa.launchpad.net/commercial-ppa-uploaders/allvideodownloader/ubuntu saucy main " I have no authorization to access. Should this not also be 'utopic' ? [04:09] Oh, and I imagine Pantheon would work too [04:10] Ben64: do-release-upgrade -d also produces that same result, " No new release found" [04:11] Ben64: I do agree with you suggestion of hence fourth sticking to LTS, but I need to get out of this to do that in future. [04:12] cdshan: Ben64 ;; check what is set in update-manager ' cat /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades ' ? [04:15] Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/GehcabCz [04:16] Ben64: http://pastebin.com/GehcabCz [04:18] cdshan: Humm .. " Prompt=normal " is correct for this situation .. I am out of ideas now . [04:20] Bashing-om: thank you for your time, hope I will get some solution [04:22] cdshan: Sorry that I am no more of help . Best wishes . === Don is now known as Guest73615 [04:28] hi [04:29] I haven't wifi after my laptop returns from hibernation. help? [04:32] [15:31] So im using KVM and I'm trying to passthough onboard intel sata the problem is it is not in its own IOMMU group. It is in the group with the ISA Bridge and the SMBus.

Surely this isn't normal? [04:36] it's me again still having a total nightmare getting xubuntu installed. I am running out of ideas. Constantly different errors.

Does anybody know what went wrong with this archive file? http://imgur.com/a/5ibqx (First image is the main directory, following two are the subfolders) -- When I transferred it originally it was just the 108.MOV file which was 3.7GB, but it split into that weird encryption folder which is 3.7GB and the 108.MOV is now 0 bytes? Is there a way to fix this, if not is there a way to recover just a portion of the data inst [04:45] ead of the whole so the video is somewhat watchable? [04:46] i dont know much about that but it looks to me like the file has become corrupt [04:47] where did you copy the original file from clorisu [04:47] was it an internet download or a transfer from a USB device? for example [04:48] SeriouslyLaugh: i compiled the archive myself from my ext4 drive [04:48] SeriouslyLaugh: but that original file is long gone [04:48] ColdKeyboard what command or software did you use to create the archive? [04:48] clorisu [04:50] I sometimes wonder why, why isn't irc more heavily used [04:51] SeriouslyLaugh: I right clicked the file and clicked 'create archive', it uses the program file roller [04:52] clorisu are you able to browse the contents of that folder? [04:52] or does it spit out an error when you try to navigate [04:52] clorisu: do you want to use another program other than file roller? [04:53] 2015-11-22 20:47 was it an internet download or a transfer from a USB device? for examplexk [04:54] hmm what's the issue :) [04:54] i'm seeing bug reports related to this type of behavior from back as far as 2009 [04:54] let me see if anyone posted a solution [04:55] owell I'll wait for my own bug, one will come someday :) [04:56] SeriouslyLaugh: I can't load the video file from within the archive, or extract it. i get the same error "error occured while extracting files. encrypted file is unsupported". I believe when I tried on windows it said headers were broken. [04:56] yigal: I dont mind what program I use, but ive lost the original file the archive was made out of and im just trying to recover whatever data i can from the archive [04:57] clorisu: what do you get when you type 'xdg-mime query filetype ? [04:57] ; [04:57] excuse me ' [04:57] yigal: application/x-compressed-tar [04:57] hm [04:57] clorisu: so it's a tarred archive apparently [04:57] yeah [04:58] SeriouslyLaugh: take it from here [04:58] but it's almost certainly encrypted [04:58] unfortunately i this is out my comfort zone [04:58] i dont have a solution, sorry === derrick is now known as Guest99186 [04:58] SeriouslyLaugh: ok I'll try some hand waving see if we get any further [04:59] good luck [04:59] thanks anyway SeriouslyLaugh and yigal. would you expect its possible to be fixed if i found the right person to help?

[05:05] yigal: a canon dslr camera [05:05] hello [05:06] clorisu: did you hack the camera, is it using the open source stuff? [05:06] clorisu: http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK ? [05:06] clorisu: it's odd that it would be a tar gz file [05:07] clorisu: if you're ok with the idea share a dropbox, or other link with the file, I'll certainly take a look what might be going on [05:08] yigal: i dont think i changed the camera and not sure if its open source. it just produces a .mov file and im fairly sure i just made the archive out of that [05:09] yigal: its 1.7gb so may take me a bit to upload, but ill do it [05:09] clorisu: cool, so I'm guessing it's a raw file? === joseph is now known as Guest66089 [05:10] hey [05:10] how do i use computer cam [05:10] laptop webcame [05:10] on ubuntu [05:10] in chains [05:10] to take a picture [05:10] sorry dude I had to [05:11] django_: if you have a Ubuntu install you can use the default application Cheese https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Cheese [05:11] yigal: ty [05:11] yigal: you israeli?

"Gnome Encfs Manager" does nothing when I click on it. Any ideas? [05:14] np yigal just repasted incase you missed it [05:14] I ran into a small problem, Id appreciate the help if anyone has the time. I have Windows 10 as my primary partition, and Xubuntu installed along side it. I set it up so Xubuntu has a root, swap and home partition. I used 10GB for the root partition, but now it says i cannot install anything due to space being an issue. I checked my root folder & the space is maxed out. I thought games and other software would install in the h [05:14] ome folder/partition. I tried using Gparted, but i cannot modify/resize the partitions. Should i just reinstall and not make the root and home separate partitions? [05:15] clorisu: cool [05:15] Sorry for the long message... [05:15] django_: hmm [05:15] :( [05:15] django_: what kind of hardware are you working with? [05:15] yigal: have a preferred file dropping service?

[05:16] grrrr [05:16] not sure [05:16] django_: no worries, do you have a dedicated graphics card or integrated? [05:16] You'd probably know if you had a solid state drive ...

[05:18] VictoriaXOXO try genfcsm [05:18] over time it does..so like after a day i have to log out/relog on [05:18] even now its lagging as i type in words in the chat [05:18] SeriouslyLaugh: One moment, please. [05:18] its only a slight lag that isnt a major issue [05:18] SeriouslyLaugh: "anon@pc ~ $ genfcsm genfcsm: command not found" [05:18] its mostly when i log out it takes forever and overtime it just gets slower [05:18] django_: you should run 'ps aufx' and see what resources are being used, or even just 'top' [05:18] VictoriaXOXO if that doesn't work try gnome-encfs-manager [05:19] ps top? [05:19] django_: no, us 'ps aufx' [05:19] SeriouslyLaugh: Well, this sure as heck is weird. "anon@pc ~ $ gnome-encfs-manager Using AppIndicator" [05:19] SeriouslyLaugh: It works from there?! [05:19] django_: or 'top' something that will let you see the resources that are being used so you can kill the program as opposed to the session [05:19] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/cXIHLlkM/ [05:20] thats what it says ll [05:20] django_: is it slow right now? [05:20] oh I think that means it's an indicator VictoriaXOXO -- there isn't a graphical user interface but rather it would be shown in the system bar area if you had one enabled [05:20] umm [05:20] not too bad [05:20] i recently relogged that why [05:20] bc it was going slow [05:20] django_: yah, the resource usage from the output is minimal [05:21] SeriouslyLaugh: Yeah, I see an icon there now. But I was promised a GUI. >:( [05:21] django_: that's why I ask, when it gets bad take a log of it [05:21] ok [05:21] one sec let me research this VictoriaXOXO [05:21] do you usually hang around?

[05:23] also its ubuntu 14.04 [05:23] django_: yes that's what people usually notice from a swithc from Windows to Linux/Ubuntu [05:24] not this time /cry [05:24] switch [05:24] VictoriaXOXO check out some alternatives: http://alternativeto.net/software/cryptkeeper/ [05:24] django_: well Windows is getting better and it certainly depends on the hardware [05:24] oops I mean http://alternativeto.net/software/gnome-encfs-manager/ [05:25] SeriouslyLaugh: I will. So, to uninstall it completely... sudo apt-get purge gnome-encfs-manager? [05:25] yigal: could it be the installation was wrong [05:25] yep [05:25] SeriouslyLaugh: Thanks. What do you use? [05:25] django_: not likely [05:25] django_: are you currently having issues with the speed? [05:25] right now no [05:25] lol [05:26] django_: right so there's an application likely with a memory leak, so you need to find it and respawn it when it has issues [05:27] Hola [05:27] hows this [05:27] yigal: did you get my link [05:27] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/UNvNxDTN/ [05:28] hi [05:28] clorisu: yes, second let me start the download [05:28] np [05:28] also firefox goes annoyingly slow [05:28] your name ?

[05:44] django_: something like https://github.com/rackerlabs/recap [05:45] django_: if that's confusing just run the command, ps aufx > log.txt' when the system gets bad [05:46] django_: 'ps aufx > log.txt' excuse me, and then when complete sign out [05:46] yigal: I can't access the source as the mov file was from my camera 2 years ago and the source is lost. is there any way to recover just some of the data so some of the video is watchable?

[05:51] yigal: i have a feign memory of maybe password protecting it. i would probably still remember the password if it would help [05:52] clorisu: it likely will in this case [05:52] yigal: hopefully :) [05:52] SeriouslyLaugh: thanks ill look into it [05:52] clorisu: yes, I hope so :) [05:54] clorisu: I mean just running a few basic commands seems to show that indeed it is encrypted with a password, https://gist.github.com/8leggedunicorn/7d637fea2b7e06fa504b [05:55] yigal: i dont understand that log but ill take your word for it :) [05:55] Interesting ... could explain the incomplete decompress, yeah.

[06:00] clorisu: if it is a zip file you can use 'unzip' with the -P flag 'unzip -P ' [06:00] Apparently, it's a tar.gz file. [06:00] (If I remember the previous convo correctly.)

[13:02] What is the fastest way to copy a filesystem from partition A to B? I mean, I want something like dd, but that won't waste time copying empty spaces (but leave fragmentation and filesystem size as they are). [13:02] i dont want a real theme [13:02] AlexQ: clonezilla perhaps? [13:03] AlexQ, dd bs=1G iflag=fullblock if=/dev/sdx3 of=/dev/sdx4 - or regular rsync -aAHSX (and not care about fragmentation), take your pick [13:04] frostschutz: How does dd know which blocks are full? Is if filesystem-aware? [13:05] AlexQ, no. at best you could conv=sparse to skip zeroed blocks, but the target has to be zeroed as well for that to work, or the copy will be corrupt [13:06] ok nm it looks like gdm cant be styled like gnome can be [13:06] in gnome u can select a solid backgruond color [13:06] AlexQ, but as long as your filesystem is not 90% empty, it will still be faster to dd it all than to do anything else [13:06] hello, I spinned a Ubuntu vm from azure, and downloaded some stuff into it, I want to download that from azure to my computer How can I do that? [13:06] thatkid_, man scp or man rsynx [13:06] *rsync [13:10] frostschutz: Actually I changed my mind; I think it would be nice to have the filesystem defragmented for not-so-enormous time penalty by just copying file by file. So that rsync -aAHSX should be much faster than regular cp -R? [13:11] does Xenial Xerus exist as alpha? [13:11] aka Ubuntu 16.04 [13:11] Kartagis: still in daily build stage [13:11] Kartagis: join #ubuntu+1 [13:11] AlexQ, no, but rsync can resume in case of problems in between and such [13:12] lotuspsychje : Goal ? Actually I am having problem with 14.04. USB3.0 port connect with an external 2.5 drive get auto restart when I shut down the pc.

[13:28] yeah [13:28] type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [13:28] so nobody knows why my QT programs are spazzing out left right and center?

[13:29] lotuspsychje : a bunch of usb right now on my sys log , need to check what casing the error [13:29] lotuspsychje: seems like it happens to a few different QT based programs [13:29] but I use virtualbox the most [13:30] orf_: but does it also happen outside vm in your ubuntu desktop [13:30] yes, it happened in the gnome preferences page [13:30] it seems like the window is being drawn multiple times ontop of eachother [13:31] orf_: wich ubuntu version?µ [13:31] latest, 15.10 [13:31] orf_: wich graphics card chipset and driver? [13:31] intel based, let me find out exactly [13:32] orf_: did you have this on LTS? [13:33] lotuspsychje: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0b) [13:33] I haven't used LTS, I went into 15.10 [13:33] orf_: what does driver= mention? [13:34] configuration: driver=i915 latency=0 [13:34] orf_: ok good, i would try a live 14.04 LTS to test [13:34] orf_: might be a glitch in 15.10 [13:34] orf_: or file a bug on 15.10 [13:35] I think I will file a bug, this is my work machine and I can't afford the time to re-install 14.04 [13:35] I saw a stack overflow post with someone with the same issue, so it's not just me [13:35] I'll try and find that and include it in the report [13:35] lotuspsychje : maybe you can have a look [13:35] lotuspsychje : http://pastebin.com/JC7Rhh69 [13:35] orf_: try to run your qt packages from terminal, see what error it gives [13:36] ooh, that's a good idea [13:36] I'll try that, thanks lotuspsychje [13:37] nbusrone: could you try plugin your hd to usb from the guest user, to see if it happens there also? [13:38] lotuspsychje : will it be different ? [13:38] nbusrone: not sure, lets test [13:38] nbusrone: dont see anything unusual in syslog [13:39] hello [13:39] nbusrone: try same tail -f /var/log/dmesg perhaps [13:42] bumbar: type sudo mount /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root /mnt [13:42] lotuspsychje : as mention from someone , the USB3.0 device trigger a shutdown option on 14.04 as wakeup.So it just looping wakeup even I safely remove the drive.But it only trigger once but it's troublesome when it auto restart even I plug out the drive. [13:42] EriC^^: ok [13:43] Hi all, I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I have an issue with the rc.local file. The scripts whithin the the rc.local file are not running at startup. The file attributes are "-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 454 Nov 23 12:47 rc.local". After the system boot, I can succesfully start all the scripts withing the file by simply executing the rc.local file (/etc/rc.local). So it seems that the rc.local file is not executed at system boot. Can someone he [13:43] hyperspace: have you but the scripts being called *before* the final "exit 0" in that file? [13:43] TJ-: yes, exit 0 is the LAST line in the file [13:44] what scripts [13:44] TJ-: I have also tried removing the -e flag from /bin/sh [13:44] hyperspace: have you ensured all your sub-scripts return success too? [13:45] TJ-: well, if I execute the rc.local file after the system boots, all the scripts run succesfully [13:45] EriC^^: some iptables scripts [13:45] TJ- : Hi again :) [13:46] EriC^^: should i follow http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd starting with chroot part? [13:47] TJ-: I have two iptables scritps in the rc.local file (one for ipv4 the other for ipv6), if I run them individualy and run "echo $?" after their exection, I get "0" [13:47] bumbar: hmm, did you type the mount command? [13:47] yeah, it's mounted ok [13:48] bumbar: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot [13:48] TJ-: brb in 5 min [13:48] EriC^^: done [13:48] bumbar: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done [13:49] done [13:49] bumbar: sudo chroot /mnt [13:49] done [13:49] update-initramfs -u -k all [13:51] EriC^^: http://pastebin.com/Dw3t7LhK [13:52] bumbar: dpkg -l | grep linux-image | nc termbin.com 9999 [13:52] hyperspace: ok, so /etc/init.d/rc.local is the init script for /etc/rc.local. I'm not seeing any job calls it though [13:53] EriC^^: nc: getaddrinfo: Temporary failure in name resolution, but here's the output http://pastebin.com/SuxCQjiW [13:54] bumbar: which ubuntu did you upgrade to? 15.10?

[13:58] hyperspace: does "service rc.local start" work correctly? Which run-level is being used (2 is the default for multiuser)? Is the sylink in /etc/rc2.d/S99rc.local ? [13:59] TJ-: let me check that [13:59] [nitro]: you should not install intel driver for that, but use nvidia-settings to switch [13:59] hyperspace: the symlink for the active runlevel in /etc/rc.d/S99rc.local is the important bit [14:00] TJ-: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jun 10 2014 /etc/rc2.d/S99rc.local -> ../init.d/rc.local [14:00] <[nitro]> lotuspsychje, how do i just install nvidia-settings ?

[17:02] wow, just got kicked from here O_o [17:03] Bilel_mk: oh, that's using --bg-tile, but there is also --bg-fill and others...

Can anyone tell me what is the solution to problem [17:09] zykotick9 , thank you again it work perfectly ! === thomas_ is now known as Guest35840 [17:10] Bilel_mk: note, in awesome - if you change themes it'll change the wallpaper (or if you restart awesome), so ideally you set you wallpaper with the theme's config files. /me doesn't use awesome anymore, but did ;) [17:10] okay [17:10] ola [17:11] zteam, thanks installing themn :) [17:11] exit [17:11] killall, no problem, hopefully one of them should do the trick [17:13] hi all. is there a way i can get different window icons for ubuntu? like the ones currently active are too small imo ... would like something bigger [17:13] Any Ideas -> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/275033 [17:13] SlidingHorn yes i did, it didn't helped [17:13] i mean the icons with which u close maximize etc. windows [17:14] anheru, so you're able to connect, but the connection is "spotty"?

[17:17] zteam: no i mean the icons u maximize close, minimize windows with [17:17] those on the upper left side on windows [17:18] anheru, I'm pretty much a novice myself, but I'm googling like mad! :) [17:18] hello everyone [17:19] hi every one ! can someone help me how can i add to my desktop a wigdet [i use awesome]?? [17:20] i have another question. my terminal bell doesnt work with gnome-terminal ... is there any way i can get it working? [17:20] it should make a sound on the normal pc speakdes whena terminal ('\a') is recieved [17:20] anheru: check the interface's power-saving mode. some devices are very aggresive in switching to power-saving modes [17:21] TJ- it's turned off [17:21] here is the wireless-script test result with all informations: pastebin.ubuntu.com/13461918/ [17:22] anheru: check /var/log/syslog for indications of the link dropping, and if so, what the wpa_supplicant 'reason code' is [17:22] Hi. I am currently using ubuntu 14.04.03. Should I upgrade to the latest version, 15.10? [17:22] freakyy: wow, i'm at the opposite end - i go to the extent of blacklisting the required module, so i never hear the hardware-beep in a terminal /me had nothin' on why gnome-terminal beep isn't working though, good luck. === ppf_ is now known as ppf [17:23] hi every one ! can someone help me how can i add to my desktop a wigdet [i use awesome environement]?? [17:23] Bilel_mk: i'd suggest finding a channel for awesome... i doubt #ubuntu is the best place to be asking... good luck though. [17:24] zykotick9: hehe ok ;D [17:24] anheru: well, it looks pretty clear there. Your AP is on the same frequency as 2 others (2462MHz) and close to some other operating channels to, so I'd guess there's interference [17:24] zykotick9 , i am using ubuntu but i add to it awesmone environement [17:24] anheru: try switching to use 802.11a (5.xGHz band) if at all possible [17:24] ? [17:24] zykotick9: in the soundsettings u can disable notification sounds [17:25] Bilel_mk: asking here is fine... i just doubt there are many awesome users here... YMMV. good luck. [17:25] freakyy, did you check your sound settings? [17:26] TJ- ok brb need to relog to other pc so i can use ubuntu here [17:26] zykotick9 , ah okay thank you i interstand [17:26] anheru: If the 9565 can't do 802.11a, then you're kinda stuck [17:26] zteam: yes i checked them - its all enabled [17:27] Bilel_mk, FYI, their IRC channel is #awesome on the OFTC server :) [17:27] okay [17:27] anheru: you could try forcing your AP to use channel 13, instead of 11, although there's still overlapt there it might be slightly better === devon is now known as G33KY === G33KY is now known as Guest8430 === Monthrect is now known as Piper-Off [17:30] freakyy, event sounds too? [17:30] anheru: try the AP on channels 1 or 13, with 1 possibly - when the wireless info report was generate - being the better channel. You'll need to disable auto-channel selection so the AP doesn't hop channels, too [17:32] hey ppl is there a way i can test my microphone without downloading any software? [17:33] logglog: 'alsaloop' tool from the alsa-utils package (if its installed) === lucas_ is now known as Guest96787 [17:34] logglog, System Settings > Hardware > Sound (or click the speaker icon on the menu bar) & select "Sound Settings", then the "Input" tab, select the device & make sure it's not muted. You should see an active input level as you use your mic [17:34] freakyy, as for your other question you can try to install gnome tweak tool from software center, it seems to able to change the min, max and restore buttons on the window title, but I'm not sure === kervin is now known as Archie === moz is now known as Guest6083 === CarlFK1 is now known as CarlFK [17:35] hi , anyone know how do we check for which file having pending sector or badblock on a hard disk ? === cyphase is now known as Guest95609 [17:36] hi every one ! can someone help me how can i change my keyboard input from qwerty to azerty from terminal ? [17:36] TJ- ok i switched off 'enable auto channel scan' and selected channel 13 [17:36] Simples way to check for newbie ? [17:37] yes, that's very easy, just click on speaker icon besides your clock and go to sound settings -> input device -> record sound from and choose your device, if it register any sounds it should show up there [17:37] TJ- what now? btw i don't think it's AP problems cuz for example now ubuntu cant find any wireless networks... [17:37] anheru: you're in a congested area, those other APs amy also change channels, so you'll need to keep a watch in it. The best channels, due to them not overlapping others, is 1, 6, 13, but you'll find most APs will choose those, or channels nearby [17:37] Bilel_mk, this should work: http://askubuntu.com/questions/550937/change-from-qwerty-to-azerty-in-command-line [17:37] anheru: what country are you in? [17:38] TJ- gb [17:39] anheru: the region makes a difference. In Europe we have 13 channels... and the AP and the PC should figure out the correct region and set limits accordingly. If your PC is not seeing the AP on channel 13, that suggests the PC has the wrong region set. Try "sudo iwlist wlan0 scan" and see if your AP shows up [17:39] TJ- after switch off & switch on whole wireless 3 times, it found networks, but still cannot connect [17:40] anheru: your log shows the PC knows it is in the GB Europe region "ath: Country alpha2 being used: GB" [17:40] SlidingHorn: TJ-: thank you, worked well :) [17:40] logglog, happy to help [17:41] hello [17:41] SlidingHorn , thank you [17:41] anheru: "tail -f /var/log/syslog" and do you see attempts to connect to the AP? [17:41] TJ- for example now i trying to connect and it shows password window over and over again... [17:42] anybody home? Im using a tutorial for an old version and I think the locations of certain directories have changed [17:42] anheru: try changing the AP's channel to 1, let's find out if that is caused by using channel 13, or something entirely different [17:42] TJ- yes [17:42] Simples way to check for newbie ? [17:43] MWM, what are you trying to do? What version & flavor of *buntu are you using, etc.? [17:43] how to copy a bad sector block on a hard disk ignoring them ?

I downloaded GsmartControl mention I had 1 pending sector that had grow to 85 right now [17:45] I somehow fucked up up my graphics setting on my ubuntu with an nvidia driver install [17:45] might be an odd question - but when both wifi and ethernet are connected in Ubuntu which connection is used? [17:45] anheru: that is very strange behavior. Do you have a wifi enabled phone that can see the AP? [17:45] nbusrone, just search for disc in unitys searchbar and it will get you right to the disc manager from there you can easy check ytour hard drive [17:45] Jesterboxboy avoi the f-word [17:45] i remove purged all nvidia-* packages and moved the xorg.conf to somewhere else, but i still cant see unity when i start up [17:46] @MonkeyDust sry my fault [17:46] @jesterboxboy , can you get CLI with ctl + alt f1?

Are you trying to create a launcher that opens chrome when you click this icon? [17:51] @MWM i just have no real clue what do to, is there some way to set back xorg, or the drivers to default? [17:52] @jesterboxboy try logging in and then startx. should get you to the GUI. I really cant tell you what to do to permanently fix though. atleast you have CLI now [17:52] zteam : i know what it calls but how do I determine which files is in a bad sector ? [17:52] tokam, sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm, is the first thing I would try anyway (aside from restarting the computer that is) [17:52] zteam: already tried both [17:52] root@localhost:~# cat /var/log/lightdm/x-0-greeter.log [17:52] SlidingHorn: cool :) but no, i'm not. By default google chrome should have an icon there, because it stays running when it close it, unless you unselect Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed [17:52] Error writing X authority: Failed to open X authority /var/lib/lightdm/.Xauthority: No such file or directory [17:53] SlidingHorn: just asking if its just me, or if it happens to other people also.

I used puttygen and loaded my old private key to generate the public key, removed the first 2 line and alst line, added ssh-rsa before the one-lined key, modified sshd_config to use .ssh/authorized_key but still I get server refused key [17:54] resolution: communicator as in? [17:55] for example. But empathy would be ideal. [17:55] nbusrone, which file? I don't know any tool for that, you should try run a fsck on the disk that should mark the sectors as dirty and move the files to healty sectors automatically [17:55] maslo: you can save the private key in openssh.com format from the top menu, no need to edit it [17:55] private key isn'T the issue, the public one is [17:55] TJ-, syslog "kernel: [ 1404.228328] wlan0: deauthenticated from e8:cc:18:0f:48:78 (Reason: 15=4WAY_HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT) [17:55] I am using my old private key from before i upgraded my ubuntu from 12.04 to 14.04 [17:56] and i tried using the same .ssh/authorized_key file onn the 14.04 fresh install andn it doenst work [17:56] maslo: the public key is in the text box, no need to edit it either [17:56] !info finch | resolution, there's finch, also something called bitlbee for moving other chat protocols to irc clients [17:56] resolution, there's finch, also something called bitlbee for moving other chat protocols to irc clients: finch (source: pidgin): text-based multi-protocol instant messaging client.

[18:00] This may be off but anyone here know where I can get any user or help for India ? [18:00] parapan, it probably created some maps there instead of files, if those are empty just remove them with rmdir or you can try to remove the files rm -f (which means force, but use that with caution [18:01] but, I have to remove jackd and jackd2???? [18:01] !in | ux2 [18:01] ux2: #ubuntu-in is the channel for Ubuntu in India [18:03] nbusrone, well, sectors most often becomes hard read before they get impossible to read (it takes more and more read attempts), as your drive detects that a sector is hard to read it, will try to move the content into a new sector [18:03] Hey [18:03] still trying to figure out where these directories from 8.10 have been moved to in 14.04 if anyone in here knows [18:03] anyone got my q ? === Don is now known as Guest99455 [18:04] nbusrone, with that said, if the diagnostik tool you run said your harddrive is dying you should hurry to back it up) as the drive doesn't have indefinity spare sectors [18:05] where can I get help from Indian user and to get Indian languages?

[18:07] nbusrone, as your bad sector numbers seems to grow I would recommend you to try a full selftest from disk utilty and see what it says [18:08] zteam : Do I need to backup first before doing the selftest ? [18:08] zteam : what tools to copy file and ignore bad sector files and display which files are hard to read and skipped it after 1 or 2 retry ? [18:10] nbusrone, well, you can do it if you want to, but I don't think it is neccesary [18:10] After the upgrade to Ubuntu 15.10 the folder for lightdm did not exist so lightdm could not start post booting [18:10] Im trying to get NIC drivers working on a fresh install. Would anyone be able to help? [18:12] zteam : any reason ? what happen when it got freeze on diagnostik tool and bad sector increase rapidly ? [18:12] zteam : as above which tools to copy file and ignore bad sector files and display which files are hard to read and skipped it after 1 or 2 retry ?

I assume because the directories/files have been moved between 8.10 and 14.04 [18:20] nbusrone, there are 2 tools for recovering files from bad sectors as I know about, first there is Recoverdm (terminal software) https://www.vanheusden.com/recoverdm/ and then there is Roadkils Unstoppable Copier (which has a grahpical interface) http://www.roadkil.net/program.php/P29/Unstoppable%20Copier [18:20] helo [18:20] i need command to allow rsyslog proces write in syslog :) [18:20] can anybody advice a good serial monitor, moserial doesn't show ascii and triples messages that i get back [18:21] nbusrone, lastly there is gddrescue, but that mirrors the whole partion [18:22] zteam : anyhow , how do I count bad sector convert to file size ? lets say 1 sector = how many kb or mb ?

[18:29] trism, Mmm... but, how to remove libjack0? [18:29] Hello [18:30] Paul-Z: sudo apt-get remove libjack0; see what packages it wants to remove (pastebin it maybe), if it only wants to remove that one package then you can probably just remove it [18:31] I git (I think) a QT bug with ffado-mixer (and mayby qjackctl) : sometimes way I do a "drag and drop" gesture in the middle of a window : the mouse got stalled [18:31] zteam : thanks , I'll do it tomorrow :) [18:31] mh.

[18:35] arb: ISO for repos, so you'll remain permanently out of date? 0o [18:35] zteam : ok , thanks , now it goes to 90 , I count 1 sector = 512 bytes and 90 sector = 512x90 / 2 =23mb ? [18:35] Paul-Z: alright, instead pastebin the output of this command: sudo apt-get install -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=yes portaudio19-dev; (it's going to be alot of output) [18:36] daftykins: Nop [18:36] arb, there is package called grub-imageboot which should allow you to boot isos directly from grub, but I don't know how to use it, sudo apt-get install grub-imageboot should be a good start I guess... :-) [18:37] im new to linux a good a python/text editor I can install [18:37] bah meant to say whats a good text editor [18:38] nbusrone, I belived it does print the the info in Megabytes, then fsck is finsihed (at least checkdisk on windows does, so I guess fsck should do it too) [18:38] zteam: 10x alot [18:39] arb, no problem :-) [18:39] s0k_iT, geany is a simple editor that lets you write/compile/execute c, c++, java, bash, python [18:39] tanks [18:40] s0k_iT, while I haven't programmed in years myself I think anjuta should be quite nice for python :-) [18:41] Kinda funny how it says it's a "text editor" when it compiles/executes code. :P [18:41] Mini-IDE! [18:41] trism, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13478960/ [18:41] trism, yes, a lot of.... ;) [18:43] I installed Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 on my desktop with Asus Z170-K motherboard and legacy mode enabled. The drive is formatted with GPT and already has Windows on it. [18:43] When I booted after installation it went straight to Windows 10. But manually opening the boot menu and selecting the hard drive as the boot device instead of the Windows boot manager boots into Ubuntu [18:44] Paul-Z: actually it wasn't very much, it is usually 4x that [18:44] How can I get GRUB to show up on boot so that I can pick Windows or Ubuntu? [18:44] I had created a grub partition during installation but it didn't seem to help [18:45] Paul-Z: something has to be wrong with libjack-jackd2-0, what is: apt-cache policy libjack-jackd2-0; === arb is now known as agar [18:46] trism, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13479015/ [18:47] guruprasad: change the default timeout period - can you get to it manually with pressing escape or holding left shift? [18:47] guruprasad: it's sounding like a case of installing Ubuntu as EFI beside a legacy Windows to me [18:47] Paul-Z: hmm that looks fine [18:48] daftykins: When the PC boots, it boots into Windows without showing grub [18:48] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows may help with the grub question.

[18:49] daftykins: I am sure Ubuntu booted in the legacy mode since booting with the uefi mode dropped me to grub shell [18:49] It removes grub and its config, scans the partitions, and redoes the entire thing. Not sure why you wouldn't just use it. [18:49] oh. [18:49] daftykins: that was during the installation [18:49] apologies, I didn't realize you were dealing with uefi mode [18:50] guruprasad_: ok, so you had the old style purple backed boot menu etc? [18:50] guruprasad:hello [18:50] daftykins: yes [18:50] harsha: well, just checking first [18:50] trism, aww... so... It seem that I have to remove jackd, jackd2, qjackctl etc........

It's only saying I have an internal error on normal startup. I tryed going on safe graphic startup on the recovery menu. It said me it can't detect my graphic settings so I had to choose them. Unfortunately, I had to do that in a gui and it couldn't be loaded correctly. I had a choice to do but there wasn't any text next to the [19:45] checkboxes. After that I've rebooted and tryed to repair packages. It found things to repair but couldn't download the updates because I wasn't connected. So I've rebooted again and did the network thing in the recovery menu. Couldn't start a new networking process because there was already one and nothing was happening after.

It tells me that wifi is hardware blocked(using rfkill list) and that it isn't software blocked. none of my hardware keys re enable wifi. [20:00] redkriegtober_: what brand of pc is that? [20:01] lotuspsychje: what did they relelease? a new card model? ... but no new drivers? === _dv_ is now known as dv_ [20:01] freakyy: amdgpu driver for linux, for newer card models [20:01] lotuspsychje: where can i get that driver? [20:01] lenovo b575 is the model [20:02] freakyy: dont think its added to repos yet [20:02] is it amd-catalyst-15.9-linux-installer-15.201.1151-x86.x86_64.zip? [20:02] lotuspsychje: how do u know that? and where can i check? [20:02] redkriegtober_: you know if bios has a 'last state' wifi option? [20:02] lotuspsychje: lenovo b575 is the model [20:02] lotuspsychje: I'll boot into bios... [20:03] lotuspsychje: where would this option be in bios? [20:04] redkriegtober_ the bios screen can be different on different computers [20:05] MonkeyDust: under configuration it has an option to enable or disable wireless. it says it's enabled. [20:05] EriC^^I was able to enable secureboot and install Ubuntu GNOME :D After the install, grub showed up and I am now in the installed Ubuntu GNOME [20:05] Thanks for your help [20:05] freakyy: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=AMDGPU-Xorg-1.0 [20:05] redkriegtober_: ok, wich chipset is your wifi card [20:06] I did see some graphics glitches after selecting ubuntu in grub, but that's probably because of using nouveau for my Nvidia GTX 970 card [20:06] Now I have to check if I can boot into Windows from grub :) [20:06] lotuspsychje: ralink rt3090 [20:06] Thanks again EriC^^ and daftykins :) [20:06] redkriegtober_: ralink cards might need proper firmware [20:07] guruprasad: great, no problem [20:07] redkriegtober_: did you install ubuntu with internet/cable on? [20:07] lotuspsychje: it isn't installed, I'm using a live usb at the moment. (this is a separate laptop I'm typing on) [20:08] lotuspsychje: thanks i dont need that one - its only for newer graphic cards [20:08] redkriegtober_: i would install ubuntu with cable, enable updates during setup [20:08] lotuspsychje: unfortunately, I don't have an ethernet cable. [20:08] redkriegtober_: then update your system to latest 14.04.3 [20:09] redkriegtober_: ralink cards need to touch linux-firmware to get proper firmware in sompe cases [20:10] some of those ralink ( atheros) need hwencryption off > echo "options ath9k nohwcrypt=1" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf [20:10] lotuspsychje: for whatever reason I just get a blank screen when trying to boot into live usbs with 14.04 on them [20:11] how can i update java to 1.8? default-jd was 1.7 [20:11] lotuspsychje: sorry, I forgot to mention I've been using the 15.10 live usb [20:12] I have an ubuntu server on a remote location, with no access to it. Can I delete everything on it and re-install ubuntu on it without actual access? [20:12] redkriegtober_: try LTS for more stable experience [20:12] or just kind of, clean everything [20:12] lotuspsychje: the LTS does not boot from the live usb, or go into install process. [20:12] sam_vimes, only if you can do magic [20:13] sam_vimes you mean, no physical access, only over the network? [20:13] yes [20:13] redkriegtober_: how did you create your usb? [20:13] if the OS can run in ram or something whilst the rest is being purged, seems technically possible. [20:13] lotuspsychje: I'm using a surface pro 3 with ubuntu gnome 15.10 to make live usbs using dd [20:13] sam_vimes, only if you had remote access to the console, like this: http://www.howtogeek.com/56538/how-to-remotely-control-your-pc-even-when-it-crashes/ [20:14] I do have terminal access [20:14] redkriegtober_: ive install many lenovo's with 14.04.3 already never failed on me [20:14] nope, don't have that [20:14] Kvm over ip [20:15] if not, once you wipe the OS, theres no more connection [20:15] lotuspsychje: I've tried to boot several alterations of ubuntu with the 14.04lts (gnome, unity, xubuntu, kubuntu.) none of them work at all [20:15] redkriegtober_: that doesnt make sense mate [20:15] lotuspsychje: only the 15.10 is booting up. [20:15] redkriegtober_ then why use ubuntu at all? [20:15] sure, but is there a way to delete everything but the base OS ? [20:15] redkriegtober_: what kind of graphics card this lenovo have? [20:15] like how Windows 10 does it [20:16] uninstall packages [20:16] hum [20:16] anyone? [20:16] programs [20:16] MonkeyDust: I've got debian 8 installed on there already(dualbooted with bodhi linux) and it doesn't recognize wifi networks [20:16] redkriegtober_ where does ubuntu come in? [20:17] redkriegtober_: you need to plugin cable [20:17] MonkeyDust: I've tried to boot several alterations of ubuntu with the 14.04lts (gnome, unity, xubuntu, kubuntu.) none of them work at all [20:17] lotuspsychje: I don't have any access to a physical connection. [20:18] lotuspsychje: checking graphics card [20:18] redkriegtober_: all flavors had same error? [20:18] lotuspsychje: so long as they were the 14.04.3 yes/ [20:18] lotuspsychje: the 15.10 boots correctly for all, except I get the wifi issue. [20:19] What program can support an HD web cam? [20:19] lotuspsychje: amd e-350 cpu [20:19] gnome smile? [20:19] RonWhoCares, Cheese (Gnome) https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Cheese [20:20] Cheese is only showing 640x480 [20:20] lotuspsychje: just tried to boot the 14.04.3 vanilla ubuntu and it made the "classic ubuntu sound" with nothing showing on the screen. so perhaps there is a graphic driver error with 14.04.3 [20:20] lotuspsychje: but that has been fixed in 15.10 [20:20] sam_vimes: This is the web cam I purchased http://www.ebay.ca/itm/381346518004 [20:21] is there a way to make the ubuntu CLI output the release codename? A file or something that I can cat to say 'trusty' for example? [20:21] 50MP!? [20:21] MAC is for Noobs :) [20:21] sam_vimes: I sure how they don't mean 5.0 MP [20:22] I am wanting to record video [20:22] well, my cheese gives me 1080p, the max of my camera [20:22] You think the camera isn't HD? [20:22] so cheese goes at least to HD. probably higher. "Edit > Preference" and set the resolution [20:23] back at a fresh install with no setwork available [20:23] no network that would be [20:23] thebwt: "man lsb_release", specifically to get the codename (as opposed to the official release name) "lsb_release -c". [20:23] sam_vimes: The video resolution highest is 640x480 [20:24] sam_vimes: That is what the box says too :/ [20:24] RonWhoCares: its quite likely that the ebay ad lied [20:24] then I don't know, mine goes higher then 640x480. Se either the camera is a lie (probably..) or the drivers are weird, try another program. [20:24] fresh install of 14.04 64bit desktop that is. [20:24] RonWhoCares are you in Unity? [20:25] MWM: sudo lshw -C network [20:25] MonkeyDust: I don't know what Unity is [20:25] Can anyone tell me why the logtail package is deprecated, and whether it has been replaced with something better? [20:25] RonWhoCares with the bar on the left [20:25] Yes I am [20:26] MonkeyDust: Do you have another suggestion to try? [20:26] sneakret_: it still appears to be in the repositories [20:26] RonWhoCares right click on the Dash menu (top left), select Applications, look for 'cam'... see what you can use [20:26] Or better yet, can someone tell me how to find details related to Ubuntu package deprecation? (Reasons, when it was deprecated, what it was replaced with, etc.) [20:26] redkriegtober_: did you try nomodeset on 14.04.3 [20:27] lotuspsychje: what is nomodeset [20:27] !nomodeset | redkriegtober_ [20:27] redkriegtober_: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [20:27] @ lotuspsychje I cant paste because the machine has no connectioneven intenally. there doesnt appear to be anything odd in there though. Ive been having this problem already and think it may be that the driver isnt installed. [20:27] $ apt-cache search logtail [20:27] logtail - Print log file lines that have not been read (deprecated) [20:27] MWM: whats the network card chipset [20:27] lotuspsychje: I'll look at this now, thank you. [20:27] MonkeyDust: There are a few here [20:28] It's in the repositories, but the package description says it's deprecated. [20:28] @lotuspsychje realtek 8111 [20:28] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1022411 <- this works but doesnt survive a reboot [20:28] sneakret_: The package's short description says that it's deprecated, and so shouldn't be used even if it is available. The long description includes "This is good for marking log files for automatic log file checkers to monitor system events." suggesting that it wasn't intended as much for end users as for other logging notifiers.

I'm a newb [20:29] Jordan_U: I want to do some very specific log notification, and I was going to use logtail. If it is deprecated, I prefer not to use it... but has it been replaced with something better? [20:30] thank you both. I will look at the link and see what I can do. [20:30] redkriegtober_: read the boot options in nomodeset, from grub you can edit [20:30] RonWhoCares yes, click on either and read the description, see what most suits you [20:31] RonWhoCares if you don't get an answer here, try in #ubuntustudio [20:31] Maybe I'm not asking the ideal question.

I don't want a package that comes with a bunch of prebuilt notification rules. Is there a good solution for that? [20:32] lotuspsychje: That could be handy, but I don't think it does what I want. [20:32] sneakret_: For Ubuntu 14.10 and newer you'll probably want to hook into journalctl. [20:33] I'm on 14.04 [20:34] Jordan_U: thanks! [20:34] any good upnp server for ubuntu?? [20:34] Ripmind: maybe the #ubuntu-server guys know [20:35] sneakret_: can you detail what specific logs you wanna monitor then?

I don't remember why I chose it over fail2ban offhand, but I'm wanting to do notification--not ban/lockout. [20:44] Does fail2ban do notification? [20:44] sneakret_: didnt use myself, but it should mention banned hosts somehow right [20:44] need to enable backports first on 14.04 for minidlna [20:45] lotuspsychje: Sure. It logs them. :) [20:45] I'm wanting log notification. [20:45] i would not use java software as a server task anyway, tbh [20:45] and I want notification of each failure--not only when the host is banned. [20:45] k1l: especially not on a raspberry pi [20:46] humm [20:46] sneakret_: maybe the #openssh guys know more tools specificly [20:46] but it's a really good upnp server :/ [20:46] sneakret_: snort is also pretty nice to prevent intrusion [20:46] so what are your favorite apps that you use the most? [20:46] Ripmind: how is it better than anything else? it serves files over the network [20:46] utu8o: better ask what you need mate [20:47] it collects covers atuomatically, recognizes series, recognized which episode u watched last etc. [20:47] Yeah, I'm familiar with snort. I'm specifically looking for login failure notification though. [20:47] a pretty woman [20:47] Ripmind: yep, many do that [20:47] utu8o: you wont find that here [20:47] oh ok [20:47] does minidlna do that, Ben64? [20:48] i haven't used that one, you could check their website though [20:48] oh there's mediatomb [20:48] is there a way to remove nautilus bookmarks ... which are shoved down my throat .. music picutes .. i dont need that shit .. not even home [20:48] i remember it was supposed to be good [20:48] Hi, what is the best way copy only files that don't already exist somewhere in a directory tree (e.g. ~/). the files may not be in the same directory as the source directories. I thought rsync could do something similar, but would I need to find matching files and then pipe them to rsync? I'd also like the files copied to a subdirectory into ~/, rather than ~/ itself.

How can I modify the program list name ,programs categories etc. this package > http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/menu ? [20:51] Hello all, im looking for sys admin for my server :) my budget is not big but maybe someone intrested . Pm me [20:51] utu8o: no problem with that, its just this channel focuses on ubuntu support. for mint better see their channels [20:51] sneakret_: not sure, youll have to test :p [20:52] doesn't Linux Mint have ubuntu? [20:52] rogger_h, this is a support channel. It'd be better to ask in another channel that allows that. [20:52] jessec: Nope, consider that network-manager is a GUI thing, and server by default has not GUI . [20:53] hmmm ok, i dont see how thats not allowd but ok [20:54] utu8o type /j ##linuxmint, ask there [20:54] rogger_h: try a cheap server hosting company for what you need [20:55] rogger_h, I'm not an op here, but it doesn't seem like a support issue, rather a job advertisement. [20:56] lotuspsychje: Rather than switching to fail2ban, I think I'll focus on the log monitoring option. [20:56] since I already chose something else over fail2ban [20:56] sneakret_: ok good luck mate [20:56] On #openssh someone suggested logwatch. I looked at that and logcheck briefly, but they seemed to do much more than I need. [20:56] I was wondering if anyone might take a look a Ubuntu security guide I decided to write.

[21:08] Jesterboxboy: Purge the old driver prior to a (re-)unstall ? - OR did you use the "Additinal Drivers" utility ? [21:08] MAxou: for 14.04 you need a PPA for that [21:08] i did purge all nvidia-* packages, then installed nvidia-common after update [21:08] DonkeyHotei: can you pastebin the output?

[21:18] MAxou: yes. [21:18] ok thank for your help [21:19] Jesterboxboy: Any luck? If not, does `lsmod | grep nvidia` give you anything? [21:19] not yet [21:20] had to switch machines [21:20] how can i mount something automatically on boot? with crontab? [21:20] i just rebootet, but it takes ages because of some other problems [21:20] Ah [21:20] mhm now iam stuck at a blinking cursor [21:20] !fstab | Ripmind [21:20] Ripmind: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system.

[21:30] ok thank for your help again ;) [21:30] Error getting hardware address for "eth0": no such device ? [21:31] because unity is very not user friendly for a work usage in my opinion [21:32] Hello [21:33] hm i already purged and reinstalled the nvidia driver [21:33] the lightdm tip: i dont have the lightdm.conf, ill try just adding it [21:33] I'm new to Ubuntu, coming from a Windows / Limited Mac background, and I'm finding the Desktop experience a bit sluggish compared to both... suggestions on how to fix / optimize and/or replace with snappier? [21:33] how can i check if the right driver is loaded ? [21:34] I spent so much time fighting nvidia drivers, I finally switched to ATI, only to learn that the driver situation was even worse... so I gave up on Ubuntu as a desktop OS. [21:34] TimDix: what ubuntu exactly? [21:34] That's not very helpful information though. Just sharing, I guess. [21:35] TimDix: and what hardware is that (cpu, video card,ram?) [21:36] Jesterboxboy: That's what `lsmod` is for, to lookup the modules loaded. -- What the the previous driver you were using, nouveau? [21:36] 14.04 LTS, Intel® Core™ i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz × 8, GeForce GT 640/PCIe/SSE2, 12GB Ram [21:36] jessec: ' dpkg -l | grep nvidia* ' . Can have only one that is status 'ii' .( preferably none other than one _ . [21:36] @agent_white that i know, but it only shows to lines with nvidia in them, iam not quite sure if they are correctly loaded [21:36] nvidia* is a strange regex. :) [21:36] ^ don't think that's for me [21:36] TimDix: you installed the nvidia driver in the "propriatary drivers tab"? [21:36] Yes [21:37] The default drivers caused frequent crashes. [21:37] right now i installed it in the command line with sudo apt-get install nvidia-current-updates [21:37] Switching to nvidia's drivers cleared up the crashes. [21:37] Jesterboxboy: `lsmod`, then upload that to paste.ubuntu.com so I can take a look. [21:37] different machine [21:38] I have php5-fpm, but suddenly my sites stopped working, had to restart php5-fpm, the log says nothing, anyone knows where could I start?

[21:39] http://pastebin.com/NGuy3re7 [21:39] its a symbol by symbol transcription [21:39] Jesterboxboy: `sudo ubuntu-drivers devices` <- Find your model in here [21:39] Bashing-om: FYI, "grep nvidia*" will match "nvidi", "nvidifoo", "nvidia", "nvidiaaaaaa", ... grep uses regex rather than globbing, and does partial matches by default (so "grep nvidia" would do what you intended) [21:40] sneakret_: Yeah .. agreed .. phone was ringing and I got rushed . [21:40] frite: #ubuntu-offtopic for non ubuntu related talk [21:41] Bashing-om: Sorry to tell you what you already know then. :) [21:41] Man... as IRC help goes, this is pretty impressive. I'm used to seeing lots of flamewars. [21:42] @agent_white thanks already knew the model, and i installed nvidia-304-udpates [21:42] anyone familiar with conky [21:42] Jesterboxboy: Likely you need the write driver installed... I'm guessing 340. [21:42] k1l: To clarify a bit on what I'm referring to as sluggish... switching between applications, Alt + Tab, resizing windows, etc. [21:42] Jesterboxboy: 304? Or 340? [21:42] its recommending the 304 [21:42] k1l: Also, the performance definitely appears to deteriorate with time, gets better on reboot. [21:43] sneakret_: Nope, no applogy required .. re-infocement is good .. and needful for correct instruction in this channel .:) [21:43] ok that wasnt a good way to address the issue.... how about this i installed an application from the software center howerver, it does not show in the menu search... why would this happen? === brennan is now known as Guest28155 [21:43] Jesterboxboy: huh... what do the first 6 letters after "modadlias : pci:...." say? [21:44] Hey is there any virus writing software on BlackBox? [21:44] TimDix: could be driver specific issues. see the system logs about that. i dont have that feeling on my laptop with intel card. [21:44] !blackbox | nightviper [21:44] !blackbox [21:45] ok let me try somthing else... is there a terminal way to see what programs are installed? [21:45] nightviper: well, better ask the blackbox support about that. this is ubuntu support [21:45] ok my question is concerning ubuntu and i have yet to get a response [21:45] anyone,anyone???? [21:46] @MrCeelll dpkg --get-selections | grep [21:46] ---feels skin turning green.... [21:46] after the grep your search term [21:46] MrCeeIII: yes there are. [21:46] k1l: Thank you, I'll review. Also, not sure if it makes a difference, but I'm running a three monitor setup here. [21:46] windows can get this NIC to work just fine. Ubuntu... nope. [21:47] TimDix: oh, that could be an issue if the nvidia driver/card is on the edge of overpowered mode. [21:47] I installed an application from the software center howerver, it does not show in the menu search... why would this happen? [21:47] MrCeeIII: what program? [21:47] conky [21:47] MrCeeIII: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17823/how-to-list-all-installed-packages [21:47] "the system network services are not compatible with this version" ? that is new [21:47] MrCeeIII: well, conky is not a regular program [21:47] @agent_white sry i didnt quite understand [21:47] !conky | MrCeeIII [21:47] in the ubunutu drivers ouptut?

[21:51] k1l: how would you know that [21:51] hi guys, I would like bind the arrow keys to a combination of keys. For example, I would like to bind the key "arrow up" with the combination of keys "Alt+Ctrl+k". Which tools should I use. I prefer a tool which works in a terminal. [21:51] MrCeeIII: see the help page i posted [21:53] k1l: working on that now... but it would of been great if on the installation page it mentioned the follow on steps... thanks thus far again... [21:54] Jesterboxboy: Alrighty! And are both `nvidia-304` and `nvidia-304-updates` installed? [21:54] is it just me or does this look like a real mess? http://p.styler2go.de/?33 [21:54] @agent_white, i think they are mutally exclusive [21:54] MrCeeIII: well, you installed a package. so one can asume you not randomly typed letters to install it so you know a bit about that. if you dont know anything so far there are a lot of help pages to get a overview or detailed informations. [21:55] @agent_white but i installed nvidia-304-updates now [21:55] is there any note taking app for ubuntu? [21:57] k1l: my friend said to install it.. which i did but i didnt know to look for all the configuration settings [21:58] k1l: So in the future look for all support on the app prior to installing the package? is that what your telling me? [22:00] MrCeeIII: no. it sounds like you were complaining that you dont know what to do with that package. IMHO its my task to look it up if i dont know what to do. === not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy [22:00] Jesterboxboy: Give it a whirl to see... [22:00] MrCeeIII: like: why didnt your friend tell you :) [22:00] Jesterboxboy: I still would go through http://askubuntu.com/questions/141606/how-to-fix-the-system-is-running-in-low-graphics-mode-error/141607#141607 [22:00] @agent_white i already went through that before :D [22:02] Jesterboxboy: `cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io` [22:02] Jesterboxboy: The response you get will be a link to your Xorg.error log on a "pastie" site. That way we can look at the logs. Otherwise it's hard to debug. [22:03] Hello. [22:07] anyone know about memory leaks [22:07] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/gKrEmXN3/ [22:08] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/dt6ydaXD/ [22:09] Ripmind: Looks pretty messed up to me too . If these filesystems encounter metadata inconsistencies while mounted, they will record this fact in the filesystem superblock. If e2fsck finds that a filesystem is marked with such an error e2fsck will perform a full check after replaying the journal (if present). [22:09] shall i e2fsck /dev/sda ? or /sda1? [22:12] Ripmind: I would hazaed as a "guess" that sda1 is the OS, sda2 is "extended" and sda3 is logical as a swap partition . I do suggest running the file system check on sda1 . [22:13] hazard* [22:13] Bashing-om: no, OS is mmcblk0 [22:13] habdi [22:13] OS is on a sd card? [22:14] Ripmind: SSD or exteral card ? === NGC_6205_1 is now known as NGC_6205 [22:14] it's an RPI2 [22:14] sda1 is just an usb device [22:15] Ripmind rasp pi has its own channel [22:15] but that is more a linux/ubuntu related issue [22:15] just an usb device which seems to be messed up in fdisk [22:16] Ripmind: Will not say .. as I am venturing into unknown elements .. but sda == the device, while sda1 is the 1st partition on that 1st device . [22:16] Ripmind yes, but, e.g. ARM has its own channel too [22:16] yes, i also do not have any other partition on this device Bashing-om [22:17] Hi, i'm on ubuntu 14.04 and i'm trying to get a more up to date version of gifsicle. When i got it from aptitude it gave me 1.78, but according to this page latest is 1.88 [22:17] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gifsicle [22:17] how do i get a newer version? [22:18] deweydb, upgrade to wily [22:18] wily = 15.04? [22:19] no, vivid would give you 1.86-1 [22:20] deweydb: wily is 15.10 [22:21] oh wily is 15.10. hmm i was told not to switch to those branches, because it makes it harder to upgrade later when you're not on LTS [22:22] deweydb, it does? [22:22] i dunno, i was on 12.04 ack in the day, and went to 12.10 and was stuck there forever, could never get my ass to 13.04 [22:22] and everyone told me i was an idiot for going to 12.10 [22:23] maybe i'm just an idiot in general [22:23] :) [22:23] deweydb: upgrades get automated testing for the original ubuntu packages. [22:24] so if you dont have hardware issues or use 3rd party stuff then upgrades are known to work. the issue is, that on non-LTS you need to upgrade every 6 months now. [22:25] ok. well i am a bit worried about other packages getting upgraded in the process. what are my alternatives, instead of upgreading the os, and all the packages, can i just install from source or something? [22:25] i'm only using this box temporarily as a tool for maybe the next few days. then its going to get deleted. [22:26] just need to fix that one package ot a more up to date version. [22:26] i know i sound stubborn, but i'm worried that other packages getting upgraded might have breaking changes to the app i'm running. [22:26] (i didn't write the app, but its got millions of dependancies) [22:27] or is there a way to just grab one package from a more up to date OS? or is that a horribly bad idea? [22:28] deweydb: see if there is a PPA for that package shipping another version [22:29] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gifsicle/1.86-1 ? [22:30] that is for 15.04. its not supported to mix the ubuntu releases [22:30] ah ok [22:31] which version do you need? [22:31] what is with the version on 14.04? [22:31] i need > 1.85 [22:32] i have 1.78 [22:32] would this work: https://packages.debian.org/unstable/graphics/gifsicle ? [22:32] dont mix debian packages into your ubuntu [22:33] i already told you what to do [22:33] look for a ppa? [22:33] i was looking can't find anything [22:33] deweydb: this is a PPA which got 1.86 https://launchpad.net/~i3systems/+archive/ubuntu/ubuntu-packages?field.series_filter=trusty [22:34] but dont complain in here if that PPA breaks your system :) [22:35] ok thanks. [22:35] either PPA or outdated 5 to 10 year old software in the Ubuntu repos lol [22:35] Hi, i need help with rsyslog - after i cleared out syslog file (/var/log/syslog) it's not saving any logs - it's empty. How to fix it? [22:35] utu8o: that is not true [22:37] anheru: type ls -l /var/log/syslog [22:39] EriC^^: "-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 23 18:09 /var/log/syslog" [22:39] anheru: type sudo chown syslog:adm /var/log/syslog [22:40] and sudo chmod 640 /var/log/syslog [22:40] Hey everyone ! Sorry to bother you, I'm quite new on ubuntu. Some hours ago I dit the average normal update asked by ubuntu. Now I've blackscreen when I boot. The output is "failed to use bus name org.freedesktop.displaymanager" does anyone know how to deal with this ? :/ [22:40] Did* [22:40] EriC^^: it is work again :) thank you [22:41] anheru: great, no problem :) [22:42] EriC^^: could you help me with one more problem - wifi connection? [22:42] Assembly commands mov A, A and nop (no­operation) are semantically identical. Which one do you prefer to implement idle time and why ? [22:42] anheru: what's the problem? [22:43] Euge: RE-install the graphic's driver ?? [22:43] I have a question about Ubuntu-Mate 15.04 [22:43] glsmaxx: just ask :) [22:44] Is there a way to just have the icons on the window sitcher icons on the panel? [22:44] dcz: Sounds like a homework question . rephrase to what can be acceptable in this channel . [22:44] I can't find the setting and I have always just shown icons before. [22:44] EriC^^: it's not working ;p i had problem with random connection lost but i did some changes (turned off ipv6, set AP to wpa2 only, added command line about switch off 'n') which helped for some time, but now problem returned [22:44] BUT, I have never used Ubuntu-Mate [22:45] EriC^^: i had about 10-20 connection lost in last 3 days, and today it cannot connect at all [22:45] actually its , past exam's question [22:45] I thought about reinstalling the graphics drivers but I've bumblebee and it's quite messed up ^^ [22:46] Is it the only way I can solve this black screen ? [22:48] anheru: did you try to reset the router? [22:48] EriC^^: i did, this is problem of ubuntu because other devices are connected and have no problem [22:49] EriC^^: for example now I have no networks available on wifi list [22:50] EriC^^: after few switch-on->switch-off i have networks available again, but it cannot connect to any (asking for password over&over again) [22:50] anheru: to be honest i dunno much about wifi stuff [22:51] EriC^^: that's ok, thank you for help anyway :) [22:51] Euge: Show the channel what the hardware is ' lspci -vnn | grep -i VGA ' and what driver is installed ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' in a pastebin . do not post to channel as the output is long .

[22:56] Or just try if this works [22:56] Euge: K .. be nice to know the release that you are using . In later releases the tools to install drivers are much improved . [22:57] Euge: In order to give precise guidance, I would want to see the requested outputs . [22:59] Ok [23:00] anyone who can help me with wifi problems? [23:01] just ask [23:01] how are you [23:02] i can help your wifi [23:02] Im using ubuntu 15.04 [23:02] i have wifi whith bolocs [23:03] euge dont use your 1504 [23:03] in your assd [23:03] i'm using 14.04 lts, wifi Atheros qca9565, i had connection lost problems, now it doesn't connect at all [23:03] dont mind the troll [23:04] hey [23:04] is there such a script that can run on irc as a bot that announces new folders from a specific directory as they come in? [23:04] You suggest me to get the 14.04 ? [23:05] Euge: Not at all .. 15.04 is good . Ignore the troll . [23:05] Bashing-om: So... I tried out the oldest kernel again and those multifinger features mush have broke; they did not work... Also... Somehow double click broke as well [23:05] Stouf: i bet there are irc bots that can do that. see if supybot can do that. but better ask the supybot guys abot that [23:05] Ok x) [23:06] Well so ! Everything went great I guess. My computer is fine again [23:06] Seems like purging nvidia and bumblebee solved the problem [23:06] Bashing-om: Do you think that a virtual machine would be able to read these multifinger operations? Or not... [23:06] the_count: I do not know what to advise . Like I have said I have no experience with the touch pad . [23:07] Bashing-om: There is something funny going on with the software though... Or else it should stay constistent, i would think... Maybe not [23:07] Euge: Great .. games ? then often times a proprrietary driver performs better . === squeakyneb_ is now known as squeakyneb [23:09] daftykins: are you there?

[23:09] daftykins: i was hoping you can help me with wifi [23:09] why pick on me specifically? [23:10] daftykins: cuz you are best in here now ;d [23:10] nah. [23:10] i know nothing about that atheros device; reminds me of killer wireless though [23:10] daftykins: cmn, dont be shy :) u r [23:10] well done, you're now ignored [23:10] anheru: Bashing-om vs daftykins vs TJ-, it's a hard on [23:11] s/on/one [23:11] now that I got back my GUI [23:11] Euge: ' sudo ubuntu-drivers devices ; sudo ubuntu-drivers list ; ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' . If the system is now clean "autoinstall" will do nicely .

I'm sorry if I didn't really answer all your messages about my problem, I had some trouble dealing with this on my smartphone [23:12] ok I'll try that :) [23:12] What's the best way copy only files that don't already exist somewhere in a destination directory tree (e.g. ~/). the destination files may not be in the same directory location as the source directories. I thought rsync could do something similar, but would I need to find matching files and then pipe them to rsync? I'd also like the files copied to a subdirectory into ~/, rather than ~/ itself. If it's easier, it's OK if the source [23:12] directory tree is flattened at the destination. Something like this may work, though when I run it, it complains "/bin/cp: Argument list too long". Alternatively, would some sort of piped find command do the trick? [23:13] do you want me to past the output in private ?

[23:13] anheru: Just ask your question consisely and nicely and someone is bound to help you [23:14] not that long ^ [23:14] emitattuo: cp? [23:14] the_count, yes, cp. [23:14] emitattuo: Then what's the problem? [23:15] the_count, I'm just trying to figure out how to compose a command that would do that. [23:15] can I paste it here ? [23:15] emitattuo: you could get a list of the files at the source and destination and then use comm to get just the different files [23:16] EriC^^, that sounds simple. [23:16] then either pipe the output to cp or use it as an input file. [23:16] http://pastebin.com/sdXRThKJ [23:16] Euge: If it's longer than one to two lines, use the paste site [23:16] Euge: No pasteing in channel , Use a pastebin site and pass the URL back here , thanks . [23:16] okay sorry [23:17] here is the link of the drivers devices [23:17] Euge, even when it's slow here, the bots may kick you for flooding if it's more than a line or two. [23:17] emitattuo: yeah, you'd use the command basename to get the filename from the path first maybe [23:18] okay :) [23:19] Bashing-om: What would happen if I upgraded to 16.10 from what i have now... Would that induce more problems? [23:19] EriC^^, does cp prefer newline or zero as a delimiter? [23:19] space? i dunno [23:20] the_count: Most touchpad issues have been resolved in later kernels .. Be a good test to fire up 16.04 in "try ubuntu" mode and see what is . [23:20] Bashing-om: Yeah === Swish[\] is now known as Swish [23:22] the_count: didn't you test 15.10 similarly? [23:22] daftykins: I did not as of yet [23:22] then i think all efforts are moot [23:23] is it normal chrome in ubuntu use lot of ram ? [23:24] MAxou: yes [23:24] MAxou: depends on the number of tabs you open [23:24] MAxou: webbrowsers use a lot of ram [23:24] MAxou: Chrome in general uses a lot of ram [23:24] 6 tabs [23:24] chorme use 1Go [23:24] -_- [23:25] Ok I should maybe upgrade the ram on my computer so .. have onli 2 go :/ [23:25] you must be using something pretty fat in those 6 tabs to use 1GB [23:26] MAxou: in Chrome, type Shift-ESC [23:26] no, just clear your cache and reset your browser profile perhaps [23:26] MAxou: that will show you which processes in Chrome are hogging [23:28] EriC^^, I have a list of files from find *, then used cat to stuff it into a file, but can't get basename to read the file or find's piped output. Info find shows that it supports multiple file names as input, so it shouldn't have to be executed with each line, should it? [23:28] open a 7th tab my maouse can't move on this computer -_- [23:28] EriC^^, I was trying: find * | cat > file.txt;basename -az file.txt [23:28] MAxou: did you follow my recommendation? [23:28] *facepalm* [23:29] zerowaitstate i did yes I see each tab take about 100 mo [23:29] + chrome 150 [23:30] Bashing-om: When 16.04 LTS is released, could I upgrade from 15.10 if I install it to get back on the LTS release scedule? [23:30] clear cache, close and reopen [23:30] MAxou: a lot of JS, or a lot of image/video will do that [23:30] this website kill my ubuntu lol http://www.allocine.fr/series/ficheserie_gen_cserie=12275.html [23:31] emitattuo: do you want to keep the directory structure, or is it fine if you just get the list of files not in the source and copy them into 1 dir? [23:31] EriC^^, I can lose the directory structure and copy it all flat, yes. [23:31] EriC^^, in the case of duplicates, I'd rather they be renamed as backups. [23:32] the_count: Sure .. not a problem at all .. But why beat on a maybe ? Burn a .iso and see if the touchpad works in the test environment first . [23:32] emitattuo: find -type f /path/to/source | while read i; do basename "$i"; done > ~/sourcefiles [23:32] do the same for the destination so you have sourcefiles and destfiles [23:33] Bashing-om: Well, I was just thinking ahead... I need to stop asking Hypothetical questions... [23:33] EriC^^, e.g. /source/foo/file.sh and /source/bar/file.sh would copy as file.sh file2.sh. or something similar. [23:33] ok np [23:35] the_count: Only stupid question here is what is not asked . ;) [23:36] emitattuo: after you have both files, type comm -23 <(sort sourcefiles) <(sort destfiles) > filestocopy [23:36] same page open on mozilla i use onli 400 mo ram [23:37] EriC^^, Thanks! I'll give it a shot. [23:37] emitattuo: those are the files in sourcefiles but not in destfiles, so since we don't know the path just the filenames [23:37] ah so ugly [23:38] use find to get them and copy to the dir [23:38] comm -12 will give you the files are common between both source and dest [23:39] okay reboot done [23:41] EriC^^, find: Paths must precede expression /sourcedirectory/ [23:41] emitattuo: know that it won't copy if you have more than 1 file that have the same name, you'll be missing out, anyways good luck [23:42] find /sourcedirectory | while read i; do basename "$i"; done > sourcefiles [23:42] Thanks, EriC^^ I'll keep working on it. [23:42] np [23:45] emitattuo: my bad, find /sourcedirectory -type f .... === Zzyzx is now known as THX1138 [23:55] I'm looking for help with WiFi problems (14.04 lts, atheros qca9565) script restult: pastebin.ubuntu.com/13482342/ syslogs: pastebin.ubuntu.com/13483294/
