[00:54] <cool_boy> hi
[00:54] <tk_1993> hey
[00:54] <tk_1993> this is my first using irc chat
[00:54] <cool_boy> how do I kill a process in single line on shell? I find process id like pgrep -f "myprogram"
[00:54] <tk_1993> *time
[00:54] <cool_boy> ?
[00:55] <cool_boy> pgrep -f "myprogram" | kill -9 output_of_1st_command , how do I write this?
[00:56] <ocealot> killall "myprogram"
[00:57] <tk_1993> fist you need the pid of the programm and then you only have to type kill pid
[00:57] <cool_boy> ocealot: it saysing openerp: no process found but pgrep -f "openerp" gives me 4839
[00:58] <cyber> awkejfw, test fail :)
[00:58] <MonkeyDust> cool_boy  use backticks... `command`
[00:59] <cool_boy> MonkeyDust: sorry?
[00:59] <ocealot> i knew there was something like that
[00:59] <ocealot> kill -9 `pgrep -f "myprogram" `
[01:00] <cool_boy> ocealot: gives me bash: kill: pgrep -f "myprogram" : arguments must be process or job IDs
[01:00] <cool_boy> sorry
[01:00] <cool_boy> I just copied and pasted and no such program exists
[01:00] <cool_boy> thanks that worked
[01:01] <ocealot> yay!
[01:02] <cool_boy> what backticks " ` " does ?
[01:02] <MonkeyDust> cool_boy  it executes a command inside another command
[01:02] <cool_boy> great, thanks :)
[01:05] <baadramany> hi
[01:05] <baadramany> im new to ubuntu. my laptop speakers seem to be working on really bad quality
[01:05] <baadramany> if i plug in headphones the quality is good but when i use speakers quality is really bad. what can i do to fix this?
[01:11] <Klumsy> i finally found the windows driver and installed it successfully with NDISwrapper and it won't connect to my router
[01:12] <Klumsy> - Device: wlan0 ----------------------------------------------------------------   Type:              802.11 WiFi   Driver:            ndiswrapper   State:             disconnected   Default:           no   HW Address:        00:40:F4:FD:24:05
[01:12] <Klumsy> i know my password is correct
[01:16] <Klumsy> here is a forum moderator saying that there should be a driver already

[01:20] <ethancw> Hello Ubuntu World.
[01:20] <baadramany> hi
[01:20] <baadramany> help me fix my problem anyone?
[01:21] <pauljw> !ask baadramany
[01:22] <cool_boy> hi, how to use variables in alias function? I am trying something like http://paste.ubuntu.com/13686620/ , calling  like v8d base teste and getting output "bash: workspace/OpenERP80/openerp/openerp-server -c workspace/OpenERP80/openerp/openerp-server.conf --xmlrpc-port=8000 -u "$1" -d "$2": No such file or directory"
[01:23] <Klumsy> well this totaly sucks. is there a reason why ndiswrapper won't allow my card to work right?
[01:23] <Klumsy> does anyone know?
[01:23] <Li> what is hud-service and how do I make sure whether it's the reason behind all this processing power consumption and cooling noise?
[01:23] <daftykins> Klumsy: i haven't seen anyone try to use ndiswrapper in a number of years now; which adapter is this?
[01:23] <baadramany> pauljw: my speakers seem to be working on very bad quality compared to how they usually work on Windows. i thought its because i dont have the audio drivers installed but i couldn't find any for my laptop. this is my alsa info: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13686699/
[01:23] <Klumsy> ID 0457:0163 Silicon Integrated Systems Corp. 802.11 Wireless LAN Adapter
[01:24] <Li> when I first installed ubuntu it was cool and not making all this noise
[01:24] <Klumsy> ENUWI-G
[01:24] <daftykins> SiS!? that doesn't sound right at all
[01:24] <Klumsy> that was copied out of my term
[01:25] <k1l_> daftykins: its a usb card from 2008 or earlier
[01:25] <Klumsy> it works, its just that it won't connect with my router
[01:25] <daftykins> wow :D
[01:25] <daftykins> Klumsy: i'd call that not working
[01:25] <Klumsy> well yeah, but the system reports it as installed and working
[01:25] <k1l_> Klumsy: chances are high that your old hardware doesnt support todays wifi encryption
[01:26] <Klumsy> then why would it allow it in netmanager?
[01:26] <Klumsy> its just wpa2
[01:26] <k1l_> allow what?
[01:26] <daftykins> because ndiswrapper employs driver obfuscation
[01:26] <Klumsy> well supposedly there are drivers for almost all wireless cards now
[01:26] <Klumsy> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1433407&highlight=ENUWI-G+not+working+with+ndiswrapper
[01:27] <bigfoot111> Is it safe to resize an lvm2 partition?  I want to make another partition to put windows on but am not sure what is safe and what isn't in GParted
[01:27] <daftykins> i would not even try, if something claimed ndiswrapper was the only option
[01:27] <Klumsy> so what about a D-Link card
[01:27] <k1l_> Klumsy: you have read the 2nd post of the thread you just pasted?
[01:27] <Klumsy> shouldnt that be a standard card?
[01:28] <k1l_> Klumsy: is it a regular card or is that from the 80s too?
[01:28] <Klumsy> Ndiswrapper = nightmare and largely superseded for just about every wireless card available.
[01:28] <Klumsy> superseded?
[01:28] <k1l_> "Ndiswrapper is possibly the worse way to go and may prevent anything else from working."
[01:28] <Klumsy> well my land cable still works
[01:28] <daftykins> identify the D-Link's chip
[01:29] <k1l_> ndiswrapper is a black box trying to make windows hardware wifi drivers work for linux. if they work: great. if not: there is nearly nothing to fix that.
[01:30] <k1l_> there is a reason you dont use ndiswrapper with todays cards anymore.
[01:30] <Klumsy> i dont know because there are 4 chips for the same model number
[01:30] <Klumsy> its a DWL-520
[01:31] <Klumsy> it never shows up in lspci
[01:31] <daftykins> change slot
[01:31] <Li> well then this channel is officially worthless and consuming more power
[01:31] <SuperLag> If you get a tarball with files like the ones shown here... http://pastebin.com/HcRjNSvd where is the right place to put them? It's the binaries for Snack, which is a TCL thing.
[01:32] <bigfoot111> Need a bit of help with partition resizing if anyone here is knowledgeable
[01:32] <izinucs> I started the Wiley upgrade quite a while ago and now believe it's stalled/stuck. If I reboot the machine is there a way to reinitiate the install where it left off?
[01:32] <SuperLag> bigfoot111: gparted is your friend.
[01:32] <daftykins> izinucs: you mean, assuming you can boot?
[01:33] <bigfoot111> SuperLag, yes, but I'm still struggling unfortunately
[01:33] <izinucs> daftykins: exactly.. if I can't I'll be forced to make a usb stick and do a full reinstall
[01:33] <daftykins> well no, make one now then you can repair from a live session
[01:33] <SuperLag> bigfoot111: It's pretty cut and dry. What part are you struggling with?
[01:33] <bigfoot111> SuperLag, I have a partition with ~100GB free but GParted says it has 0B unused.  That's the first problem
[01:33] <izinucs> daftykins: I'd do that but on my desktop.. this upgrade is on a lappy
[01:34] <daftykins> izinucs: err how does that affect preparing a flash drive?
[01:34] <bigfoot111> SuperLag, Once I figure that out, I'm unsure how to take a "chunk" of that space and make it unaffiliated.  After that I know how to make a new partition from unaffiliated space though.
[01:35] <daftykins> unallocated hehe
[01:35] <bigfoot111> daftykins, thank you
[01:36] <SuperLag> bigfoot111: can you take a picture and post it, with some details about what you're wanting to do? This one is kind of hard to comprehend with just text.
[01:37] <izinucs> daftykins: nothing... just that the lappy doing the upgrade is the one I'm talking on now. the gui is frozen (as part of the upgrade :(  ).. just sayin' If I have to do a fresh install it'll be from a usb created on my desktop since this machine is almost fubar'd
[01:37] <bigfoot111> SuperLag, sure gimme a sec I'll take some screenshots
[01:37] <daftykins> izinucs: yeah, could also boot that as a live session and repair via chrot
[01:37] <daftykins> *chroot
[01:37] <daftykins> whichever goes
[01:38] <izinucs> daftykins: did that 5 yrs ago.. it's not a procedure that I remember.. it's almost easier to do a fresh install.. there's nothing really important on this machine.
[01:39] <SuperLag> izinucs: do the fresh install, if that's the case
[01:40] <izinucs> SuperLag: yea.. I ploped an ssd into this so it's pretty quick when doing an install.
[01:40] <daftykins> heh
[01:40] <daftykins> i'd have done that from the beginning, don't believe in upgrades
[01:41] <bigfoot111> SuperLag, I want to make another partition using some of the space I have left
[01:45] <izinucs> daftykins: since 2005 my home built desktop machines have always failed the upgrade path.  I know your pain.
[01:46] <daftykins> i have no pain o0
[01:48] <bigfoot111> SuperLag, i sent you the screenshots

[02:10] <deweydb> hello. i am trying to get a newer version of nginx on trusty. i added this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~nginx/+archive/ubuntu/development (via sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/development)
[02:10] <deweydb> and then apt-get update
[02:10] <deweydb> then apt-get upgrade
[02:10] <deweydb> but that found 0 new updates.
[02:10] <deweydb> what am i overlooking?
[02:10] <deweydb> nginx -V says i'm on: nginx version: nginx/1.9.4
[02:10] <deweydb> the ppa says its 1.9.7 for trusty
[02:11] <daftykins> check "apt-cache policy nginx"
[02:11] <daftykins> (put it in http://paste.ubuntu.com )
[02:11] <deweydb> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13688108/
[02:12] <daftykins> installed none O_O
[02:12] <deweydb> ohhhh shit. i must have installed it from source.
[02:12] <deweydb> doh
[02:12] <deweydb> !
[02:12] <daftykins> correct
[02:12] <daftykins> don't add the package on top! it could be risky
[02:13] <deweydb> def not gonna do that :)
[02:13] <deweydb> is there some way of finding the config install flags that nginx is installed with on ubuntu for a version of nginx?
[02:14] <Shibe> !unity
[02:14] <deweydb> what i mean is, i've compiled it with some flags, for 1.9.4, but possibly there are new flags since then that are included by default in 1.9.7 via package manger install
[02:14] <daftykins> deweydb: you mean compile flags? i think it's in package notes of some kind but can't tell you what those are or how to find them
[02:14] <deweydb> but i won't be aware of these via manual install from source
[02:14] <daftykins> or package changelogs of some kind
[02:16] <deweydb> yeah, i just wish i could find someone with nginx 1.9.7 that could show me the output of nginx -V
[02:17] <deweydb> that would make my life just peachy
[02:18] <daftykins> i'd bet a relevant channel could help
[02:19] <deweydb> just read the change logs
[02:19] <deweydb> only one new flag available since 1.9.4
[02:19] <deweydb> so i'm good :)
[02:19] <deweydb> thanks
[02:20] <deweydb> happens to be the flag i wanted too :P

[02:38] <functionoverform> linux, apache, mysql and php?
[02:38] <functionoverform> i'm real confused here.
[02:38] <ocealot> so uninstall APACHE + PHP + MYSQL?
[02:39] <ocealot> I'm assuming you want to keep linux
[02:39] <invex> i need uninstall allllllll lamp :D with everythinks php apache mysql
[02:39] <invex> with all
[02:39] <ocealot> apache1 or apache2?
[02:39] <invex> i cannot delete lamp folder in etc
[02:39] <invex> simply.. i need delete lamp folder in etc
[02:40] <ocealot> that's not how you do it
[02:40] <invex> but i cannot use right click and delete folder
[02:40] <ocealot> open up the terminal, and first enter "service apache2 stop"
[02:40] <invex> lampp folder in opt* i mean not in etc
[02:40] <ocealot> then "sudo apt-get purge apache2*"
[02:40] <invex> apache2: unrecognized service
[02:41] <ocealot> enter "top" and see if it says "apache" or "apache2" anywhere. press "q" to quit, BTW
[02:42] <ocealot> oh....never mind
[02:42] <ocealot> try this "sudo rm -rf /opt/lampp"
[02:42] <ocealot> i see what you mean now
[02:44] <pc1> does anyone know where there is a tutorial or guide for gparted for just ubuntu im not trying to dual boot
[02:45] <invex> ocealot thats help
[02:45] <invex> thanks u man ! :D
[02:45] <UserUS> pc1: what are you trying to do?
[02:45] <functionoverform> pcl, real simple, delete all current partitions, and create a primary partition for ubuntu
[02:45] <functionoverform> a swap partition if you feel like it
[02:45] <functionoverform> (only with spinning hard disks and low ram)
[02:46] <pc1> there is nothing on this computer and it needs swap and everything on it to install
[02:46] <UserUS> you can do that during install of ubuntu
[02:47] <UserUS> do the something else option, and look up ubuntu install guides on youtube. They'll explain it, everyone does
[02:50] <functionoverform> yeah, gparted, fdisk, whatever you want, it's all straightforward
[02:52] <functionoverform> isn't there just a button on a GUI installer for ubuntu though?
[02:53] <functionoverform> like "install ubuntu and replace my current OS" or something
[02:53] <functionoverform> maybe a "use whole disk"
[02:54] <Sammyvsparks> Hello, I want to confirm something microsoft said here
[02:54] <Sammyvsparks> I have a Ubuntu OS installed currently and i cannot merge to windows for some reason, would deleting the partitions allow me to install windows?
[02:55] <Sammyvsparks> Format, New, and Extend are unclickable
[02:56] <functionoverform> Sammyvsparks: type fdisk -l into the terminal
[02:56] <functionoverform> or sudo fdisk -l
[02:56] <functionoverform> and see if you have windows installed
[02:57] <Sammyvsparks> Im on the windows install screen
[02:57] <Sammyvsparks> where you select the parititon
[02:58] <Sammyvsparks> I have a USB
[02:58] <Sammyvsparks> with install on it
[02:58] <Sammyvsparks> it says windows cannot be installed on the partition because it is not NTSF
[02:58] <functionoverform> ok. well, is it showing you the partition table, or just trying to steal your soul?
[02:58] <Sammyvsparks> NTFS*
[02:59] <functionoverform> so you want to dual boot windows, or replace ubuntu with windows
[02:59] <Sammyvsparks> The microsoft support person sent me to find ubuntu support
[02:59] <pc1> i still think im doing something wrong. i went through the tutorial and still gave me the input output error. anyone know what size i should make each partition for an 8gig netbook?
[03:00] <functionoverform> you should run anything but ubuntu on an 8gb netbook
[03:00] <Sammyvsparks> Here is the full thing, I started installing windows from booting the install from a USB in bios. I ran to the install, entered product key, then got to the select a partition menu
[03:00] <pc1>  such as
[03:00] <pc1> ??
[03:00] <Thugkitty> hello
[03:00] <functionoverform> yes, and inconveniently, you don't have a partition available
[03:01] <Sammyvsparks> all the partitions are incompatible
[03:01] <Sammyvsparks> they say the are not formatted to NTFS
[03:01] <functionoverform> so my question, if the awful windows usb stick, from the awful company that prides itself on regular failure to increase employment,doesn't even include a partitioning tool for you
[03:01] <Thugkitty> i was wondering if someone can give me a hand
[03:02] <pc1> what should i put on an 8 gig netbook
[03:02] <acalbaza> any hints on getting two video cards set up?  i just installed my 2nd gpu and the first one is no longer detected?!
[03:02] <functionoverform> try puppy linux
[03:02] <functionoverform> on the netbook i mean
[03:02] <functionoverform> and in your case Sammyvsparks
[03:02] <acalbaza> lshw -C display tells me there is only one picked up!
[03:02] <functionoverform> you're going to have to USE linux, to reformat your drive into NTFS, and then install windows
[03:02] <Sammyvsparks> ohh
[03:02] <functionoverform> since i have no idea why there isn't a formatting tool on that god awful usb stick
[03:03] <Sammyvsparks> alright
[03:03] <Sammyvsparks> leme get it restarted
[03:03] <Sammyvsparks> and open terminal
[03:03] <functionoverform> well, you're better off with live media
[03:03] <Sammyvsparks> can you private message me? so we dont have the flood of chat perhaps
[03:03] <functionoverform> it's fine in here, legit support
[03:03] <Sammyvsparks> alright
[03:03] <Thugkitty> Can someone help me install my wirless adpt?
[03:03] <Sammyvsparks> leme restart it then
[03:04] <functionoverform> ok, well do that, then do you know how to create live usb sticks with linux on them?
[03:04] <Sammyvsparks> I do not
[03:04] <Sammyvsparks> It has linux preinstalled on it
[03:04] <functionoverform> and ubuntu is currently installed on said computer
[03:04] <MoPac> Is there any way to alter the startup behavior so that my cpu frequency governor does *not* automatically get switched to "powersave" from "performance" every time I boot or restart?
[03:04] <Sammyvsparks> yes function
[03:05] <Sammyvsparks> ubuntu is installed
[03:05] <Sammyvsparks> helps if i take out the USB before i boot it just a little :P
[03:06] <Sammyvsparks> alright, im at the terminal runction
[03:06] <Sammyvsparks> function*
[03:06] <functionoverform> alright
[03:07] <functionoverform> now you need to do a couple of things, one of which is download a live image of ubuntu
[03:07] <Sammyvsparks> what do i tyHow do i do that function
[03:07] <Sammyvsparks> how do i do that*
[03:08] <functionoverform> go to www.ubuntu.com, and download it
[03:08] <functionoverform> its a .iso file
[03:08] <Sammyvsparks> why do i need that is my question?
[03:08] <functionoverform> because you need a raw image, to create a live usb stick
[03:08] <Sammyvsparks> I mean why do i need a live usb stick?
[03:08] <Sammyvsparks> if the computer already runs it
[03:08] <functionoverform> then you're going to boot with that usb stick, open up gparted, and reformat your drive to ntfs
[03:09] <Sammyvsparks> Ok, well before i do that, would deleting the parition from the windows install menu allow me to create a new one?
[03:09] <functionoverform> YES!
[03:09] <functionoverform> lol
[03:09] <Sammyvsparks> Omfg
[03:09] <functionoverform> wtf.
[03:09] <Sammyvsparks> fml
[03:09] <Sammyvsparks> I WAS JUST THERE LOL
[03:09] <functionoverform> you need to create them
[03:09] <functionoverform> the partitions
[03:09] <Sammyvsparks> omfg
[03:09] <Sammyvsparks> i hate microsoft support
[03:09] <functionoverform> in NTFS
[03:09] <Sammyvsparks> they lieee
[03:10] <functionoverform> well, then you should stick with ubuntu
[03:10] <Sammyvsparks> na
[03:10] <functionoverform> or any other version of linux
[03:10] <Sammyvsparks> i love windows
[03:10] <Sammyvsparks> but support is just no
[03:10] <functionoverform> you live windows, but they're awful.
[03:10] <functionoverform> love*
[03:10] <Sammyvsparks> yep
[03:10] <Sammyvsparks> lol
[03:10] <Sammyvsparks> I havent ever used ubuntu or linux
[03:10] <Sammyvsparks> eventuall this computer will be linux
[03:10] <Sammyvsparks> but a fresh install, it'll be a media hosting server
[03:11] <Sammyvsparks> for friends
[03:11] <Sammyvsparks> but its gonna be windows for now, anyways... restarting now to load windows installer
[03:11] <functionoverform> yeah, delete everything, create NTFS
[03:11] <functionoverform> then install windows
[03:12] <functionoverform> you actually called microsoft? and they didn't tell you to delete the current partitions?
[03:12] <functionoverform> i mean, it essentially deletes everything currently installed.
[03:13] <Sammyvsparks> function
[03:13] <Sammyvsparks> i did livechat
[03:13] <Sammyvsparks> their support just plain sucks
[03:14] <functionoverform> i have a windows laptop, that i've never connected to the internet, just to use visual studio
[03:14]  * eelstrebor sure is disappointed in docs for dvb cards and utilities
[03:14] <Thugkitty> Hello, i was wondering if i can get some help?
[03:15] <functionoverform> your wifi doesn't work?
[03:15] <Sammyvsparks> function, I officially think you know more about windows installation then they do lol
[03:15] <functionoverform> yeah, well i don't know about the USB sticks, i always do it over a network that has a ton of different windows PXE loads to choose from
[03:15] <Sammyvsparks> Now i wait half an hour for it to get past the spash logo -.-
[03:16] <Sammyvsparks> and the usb is the same as the install dvd
[03:16] <Sammyvsparks> basically
[03:16] <Thugkitty> i'm trying to install my wireless adpt and i'm getting a err
[03:16] <functionoverform> I'll never understand it. you can install ubuntu in less than 10 minutes, on a fairly old computer
[03:16] <Sammyvsparks> this one i havent been able to check the specs yet
[03:16] <functionoverform> in ubuntu it's easy...
[03:17] <Sammyvsparks> I dont know crap about ubuntu utilities
[03:17] <Sammyvsparks> lol
[03:17] <Sammyvsparks> i barly can open the terminal xD
[03:17] <functionoverform> well, you can type "uname -a"
[03:17] <Thugkitty> same here and thats why i need help with installing my hardware
[03:17] <functionoverform> and that'll tell you the basics
[03:18] <functionoverform> but i'm sure there's a gui method on ubuntu
[03:18] <functionoverform> Thugkitty: what is the error message?
[03:19] <Sammyvsparks> brb, getting icecream while i wait lol
[03:19] <Thugkitty> thanks for responding!
[03:19] <Thugkitty> but the erroo sounds like this
[03:20] <Thugkitty> make[1]: *** [install] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/thugkitty/Downloads/DPO_GPL_RT5592STA_LinuxSTA_v2.6.0.0_20120326/os/linux' Makefile:474: recipe for target 'install' failed make: *** [install] Error 2
[03:20] <Thugkitty> error*
[03:21] <Thugkitty> i think thats the main error.. but not sure, i know very little about linux
[03:21] <functionoverform> hmm, well i don't know what kernel you're running
[03:21] <functionoverform> type uname -r into the terminal
[03:23] <functionoverform> it tells me that you're using a strange wireless card, or ubuntu thinks you are.
[03:23] <Klumsy> ok, found a DMA error... you guys were right
[03:23] <Klumsy> now lspci shows this wireless card: Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8180L 802.11b MAC (rev 20)
[03:24] <Klumsy> question is now, how do i uninstall the ndiswrapper?
[03:25] <functionoverform> google "uninstall packages with apt-get"
[03:26] <Sammyvsparks> Setup is starting... WELL JUST START ALREADY lol
[03:26] <functionoverform> yup. i actually take naps sometimes while windows installs.
[03:26] <Sammyvsparks> i havent even got to the install part
[03:26] <Sammyvsparks> its just setup is starting so i can enter product key and ect
[03:26] <ovrflw0x> why am i getting this message? http://paste.ubuntu.com/13690320/
[03:27] <Sammyvsparks> FINALLY
[03:27] <ovrflw0x> i'm trying to install vlc
[03:27] <Thugkitty> '/home/thugkitty/Downloads/Linux/Quick Start.txt' uname -r into the terminal /home/thugkitty/Downloads/Linux/Quick Start.txt: line 1: RT5592: command not found /home/thugkitty/Downloads/Linux/Quick Start.txt: line 2: $'\r': command not found /home/thugkitty/Downloads/Linux/Quick Start.txt: line 3: $'[03:27] <functionoverform> looks like vlc doesn't get along with ubuntu anymore LOL
[03:27] <Sammyvsparks> excuse me while i insert my product key lol
[03:28] <Thugkitty> is that bad?
[03:28] <Thugkitty> lol?
[03:28] <functionoverform> Thugkitty: i don't know what that means
[03:28] <functionoverform> so.. start with cd /
[03:28] <functionoverform> then uname -r
[03:29] <ovrflw0x> why am i getting this message? http://paste.ubuntu.com/13690320/ <-- i'm trying to install vlc on ubuntu 15.10
[03:29] <functionoverform> it should display something like 3.16.*Ubuntu
[03:29] <functionoverform> ovrflw0x, it tells you why
[03:29] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[03:29] <badbodh> hello functionoverform
[03:29] <ovrflw0x> SeriouslyLaugh, 15.10
[03:29] <functionoverform> what's up buddy
[03:29] <functionoverform> this room is rough
[03:30] <Thugkitty> 4.2.0-19-generic
[03:30] <badbodh> aye, high density of support issues
[03:30] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x i may try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[03:30] <badbodh> carry on
[03:30] <Thugkitty> is that what your looking for>
[03:30] <Thugkitty> ?*
[03:30] <functionoverform> yeah
[03:30] <Sammyvsparks> Alright, so which parition do i delete Drive 0 Partition 1 923GB System or the logical 8.3gb
[03:31] <Sammyvsparks> or both
[03:31] <functionoverform> both
[03:31] <ovrflw0x> SeriouslyLaugh, why upgrade?
[03:31] <functionoverform> let windows do its thing
[03:31] <Sammyvsparks> alright
[03:31] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x to upgrade everything...
[03:31] <Bashing-om> !info vlc-nox
[03:32] <ovrflw0x> SeriouslyLaugh,  i freshly installed 15.10 why do i need to "upgrade"?
[03:32] <functionoverform> i like to run vlc in the terminal, and watch it paint in ascii
[03:32] <functionoverform> it's damn impressive.
[03:32] <Sammyvsparks> alright function, i have 932.5gb of unallocated space, do i make a new partition or just click next on that?
[03:32] <functionoverform> new partitoin
[03:32] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x correction, run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:32] <functionoverform> partition*
[03:32] <functionoverform> then NTFS
[03:32] <Sammyvsparks> use all the space correct?
[03:33] <SeriouslyLaugh> !dist-upgrade | ovrflw0x
[03:33] <functionoverform> then it probably coddles you ino bed
[03:33] <functionoverform> yeah
[03:33] <badbodh> some package is obviously blocking the installation. did you add any third-party repo/ppa ?
[03:33] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x akin to running WIndows updates after a fresh install
[03:33] <Sammyvsparks> as windows takes it sweeeeet as hell time
[03:33] <Thugkitty> If it helps this is what i was following
[03:33] <Thugkitty> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2203226
[03:34] <Klumsy> how do you install the driver for a RTL8180L wifi card?
[03:34] <Klumsy> with synaptic?
[03:34] <Sammyvsparks> THANK YOU function :D
[03:34] <Sammyvsparks> its installing now
[03:34] <functionoverform> well that's good.
[03:34] <functionoverform> when you're done with that, and ready to toss it out the window
[03:34] <functionoverform> install manjaro
[03:34] <ovrflw0x> !dist-upgrade
[03:35] <badbodh> functionoverform, traitors are frowned upon :/
[03:35] <ovrflw0x> !upgrade
[03:35] <functionoverform> i meant ubuntu*
[03:35] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x i consider it to be good practice to run that after every fresh install but others may share different feelings
[03:36] <zykotick9> SeriouslyLaugh: fyi, with apt simply, running "sudo apt update" followed by "sudo apt upgrade" should now be sufficient for most, if not all, upgrades... removes the entire dist-upgrade confusion... just sharing ;)
[03:36] <SeriouslyLaugh> ty zykotick9 but i think dist-upgrade will make sure all dependencies are installed as well iirc
[03:36] <Sammyvsparks> now we wait 4+ freaking hours for windows to install :P
[03:36] <Klumsy> how do i install my wifi card>
[03:36] <Klumsy> ?
[03:36] <zykotick9> SeriouslyLaugh: that's not required with apt... i was just sharing.
[03:36] <functionoverform> ubuntu would take 10 minutes, just so you know
[03:36] <Sammyvsparks> I know
[03:37] <Sammyvsparks> :P
[03:37] <SeriouslyLaugh> oh! i see, thank you zykotick9 -- great tip
[03:37] <functionoverform> and Klumsy: have you done an apt-get update or apt-get upgrade yourself?
[03:37] <functionoverform> its a good idea
[03:37] <functionoverform> if you can do it via ethernet
[03:37] <Klumsy> i dont want to upgrade for fear that Unity might take over my CPU with cartoons
[03:37] <SeriouslyLaugh> i recall reading a similar tip a few days back. need to include that in my advice
[03:38] <badbodh> Klumsy, run "lspci -k|pastebinit" share url here
[03:38] <Thugkitty> So the the software does not support the current kernal?
[03:38] <Thugkitty> 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Ralink corp. RT5592 PCIe Wireless Network Adapter [1814:5592]
[03:39] <Thugkitty> the 0280 is in red
[03:39] <functionoverform> SeriouslyLaugh: how frequently do people do that
[03:39] <Klumsy> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13690691/
[03:40] <SeriouslyLaugh> functionoverform i think it varies depending on who you ask
[03:40] <Klumsy> rtl8180
[03:41] <SeriouslyLaugh> i personally run it like once a day but that's just me
[03:41] <functionoverform> Klumsy: that should be supported on the current kernels, with a fresh build, its an old wifi radio
[03:42] <ovrflw0x>  SeriouslyLaugh i did that command still i'm getting same message while installing vlc
[03:42] <functionoverform> well, maybe not old, but its been around long enough
[03:42] <Klumsy> then why cant i see any routers?
[03:42] <Klumsy> the driver is not installed?
[03:42] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x try sudo apt-get install build-essential
[03:42] <SeriouslyLaugh> just for fun
[03:42] <SeriouslyLaugh> couldn't hurt to have that anyway
[03:43] <functionoverform> Klumsy: does iwconfig show the device
[03:43] <Klumsy> arent the build tools around 500mb?
[03:43] <ovrflw0x> SeriouslyLaugh, it says already newest version
[03:43] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x how about sudo apt-get -f install
[03:43] <ovrflw0x> SeriouslyLaugh, everything is 0
[03:44] <ovrflw0x> nothing needs to be done
[03:44] <badbodh> Klumsy, look like railink drivers are dodgy just like atheros. gotta compile it from source
[03:45] <Klumsy> ok....
[03:45] <Klumsy> another card then
[03:45] <MoPac> Is there any way to alter the startup behavior so that my cpu frequency governor does *not* automatically get switched to "powersave" from "performance" every time I boot or restart?
[03:45] <Klumsy> sudo shutdown -f now
[03:45] <Klumsy> shit
[03:47] <SeriouslyLaugh> i found a few solutions though google but i dont want to share them because they are for older systems and i'm not sure they will help you. i dont want to break anything on your system.
[03:47] <zykotick9> MoPac: you might want to see if https://wiki.debian.org/HowTo/CpuFrequencyScaling also applies to ubuntu?  talks about keeping setting between reboots.  best of luck.
[03:47] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x maybe hang tight and someone will read the logs who knows the solution for you
[03:47] <badbodh> Klumsy, even ralink's website is no longer active. hard luck finding a driver for this one
[03:49] <MoPac> zykotick9: thanks; I'll check it out

[03:54] <Klumsy> YAY!
[03:54] <functionoverform> strong work obottu
[03:54] <Klumsy> finally got wifi working!
[03:54] <functionoverform> so what fixed it Klumsy?
[03:54] <badbodh> how?
[03:55] <Klumsy> there was a DMA conflict in the 2 slots under the video card
[03:55] <Klumsy> its been so long since i dealt with this stuff
[03:55] <functionoverform> badbodh: what do you actually run?
[03:55] <Klumsy> i havent had a working computer in my house for over a year
[03:55] <Thugkitty> haha what do you mean @functionoverform
[03:55] <badbodh> functionoverform, i hop a lot.
[03:55] <Klumsy> thanks guys!
[03:56] <Klumsy> now i can move this crap out of my living room
[03:56] <functionoverform> badbodh: i used to, but honestly since manjaro was installed on my ultrabook, i didn't switch again
[03:56] <badbodh> !cookies | Klumsy
[03:56] <SeriouslyLaugh> fantastic Klumsy good job
[03:56] <functionoverform> badbodh: i still use ubuntu and puppy linux at work on occasion on usb sticks just to test hardware out when the HDD's die
[03:56] <Klumsy> Cookies is what they call crack arround here
[03:57] <badbodh> hush Klumsy . be genteel. family friendly channel
[03:58] <Klumsy> thanks guys!
[03:59] <badbodh> functionoverform, aye. puppy is useful that way. i'm on fedora paste 2 days. it replaced manjaro i had for about 3-4 months. debian testing before that. and the list goes on.... :P
[03:59] <badbodh> *past
[04:01] <functionoverform> fedora has those bleeding edge, system killing updates
[04:01] <tinselchild> -
[04:01] <functionoverform> i've had it 4 or 5 times myself
[04:02] <badbodh> if you have graphics/wifi , be careful during kernel upgrades. fedora doesn;t manage everything for you unlike ubuntu or manjaro.
[04:03] <functionoverform> badbodh: which is why centos exists?
[04:03] <functionoverform> i see jobs here in chicago for centos/redhat guys a lot.
[04:04] <badbodh> yep. but i don;t centos. too antiquated. prefer playing with new toys.
[04:04] <ThiagoCMC> lol
[04:04] <nicomachus> "new toys"? Fedora is 12 years old
[04:04] <SeriouslyLaugh> so i kinda hate when people use this on me but this is all off topic.
[04:04] <SeriouslyLaugh> !ot
[04:05] <functionoverform> nichomachus: the bleeding edge daily updates are NOT 12 years old.
[04:05] <badbodh> SeriouslyLaugh, it's called keeping the bed warm. we are waiting for customers, chatting in the meantime.
[04:05] <SeriouslyLaugh> badbodh i like you
[04:05] <functionoverform> obottu: great job
[04:06] <badbodh> don;t want this channel to look dead do we? :)
[04:06] <SeriouslyLaugh> sounds good
[04:06] <functionoverform> its an ubuntu party
[04:06] <tim> !guidelines
[04:06] <functionoverform> maybe if we type apt-get a lot, it'll work itself out
[04:06] <SeriouslyLaugh> i've just had my ass handed to me for chatting in here's all
[04:07] <SeriouslyLaugh> no big tho, i'm cool with it
[04:07] <badbodh> geesh buddy. language restrictions do apply here all the time.
[04:07] <SeriouslyLaugh> yikes
[04:07] <SeriouslyLaugh> in case it wasn't painfully obvious, i'm new
[04:07] <functionoverform> awh, tim left
[04:07] <functionoverform> one more for our homie
[04:07] <SeriouslyLaugh> so i will be apologizing a lot.
[04:07] <functionoverform> !guidelines
[04:08] <badbodh> hehe
[04:08] <SeriouslyLaugh> apologies for apologizing so much
[04:09] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, your vlc issue solved ?
[04:09] <nicomachus> ovrflw0x still trying to play that DVD?
[04:09] <SeriouslyLaugh> i'm installing 15.10 in a VM to see if i can replicate his issue
[04:10] <badbodh> i saw his paste. usually happens due to too much ppa-ing
[04:10] <nicomachus> I thought he fixed that like 6 hours ago
[04:10] <SeriouslyLaugh> hm. i googled a few solutions but i'm hestant to just have him pasting away from things i haven't personally tried.
[04:11] <badbodh> this time-zone thing is quite a bummer. channel bustles with activity during my bedtime :/
[04:12] <Vanessa> I have a Macbook 7,1. Running 14.04 Precise. The battery indicator percentage is showing 88% when the battery is fully charged. Is there a way to fix this?
[04:13] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, no not solved
[04:14] <badbodh> Vanessa, disable all power-settings (sleep hibernate on low battery etc) let it drain to 0%. then charge it to full 100%, and boot. that's for calibration.
[04:14] <Vanessa> Wait, 14.04 is called trusty isn't it? I'm running 14.04
[04:14] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, no not solved how to solve this vlc issue?
[04:14] <badbodh> if % isn't right after that we can try something else
[04:15] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, have you added any ppa/third party repos ?
[04:15] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, yes virtualbox
[04:15] <badbodh> nothing else ?
[04:15] <ovrflw0x> no
[04:15] <badbodh> run "sudo dpkg --reconfigure -a"
[04:15] <Vanessa> Well the timer indicator says it's fully charged but the percentage is wrong. Is there a way of correcting the percentage without having to let the thing die? That's going to take forever.
[04:16] <badbodh> Vanessa, well. battery calibration needs a 0% death followed by 100% charge before your next boot.
[04:16] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, that's wrong command
[04:16] <nicomachus> badbodh: I have never heard of that in my life, and it sounds... odd
[04:16] <badbodh> Vanessa, once we rule that out, try something else.
[04:17] <badbodh> nicomachus, trick i got from a computer mechanic :D
[04:17] <badbodh> they don;t really replace/repair your computer batteries in most cases. just force charge, recalibrate and poof!
[04:17] <nicomachus> Vanessa: if you don't want to let it die like that, you can also install a different battery status indicator.
[04:17] <Vanessa> It's not the entire indicator that's wrong, it's just the percentage part of the indicator. The time indicator is correct.
[04:18] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, sorry. dpkg --configure -a
[04:18] <Vanessa> If I set it to show time in indicator, then the time it shows is correct.
[04:18] <dontsnee> i received 'Low Disk Space' warning for my Filesystem root when I tried to update softwares today. Here is a snapshot of my disk usage. As you can see I have ton of space in SYSTEM_DRV, I don't know how to fix this set up. http://pasteboard.co/2Dxn8YQu.png
[04:18] <badbodh> getting rusty on my *buntu stuff
[04:18] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, now what it returned nothing
[04:19] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, nothing is good. now "sudo apt-get install -f"
[04:19] <deadpixel> good day guys... is it true that linux OSes are not vulnerable to viruses? thanks :-)
[04:19] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, all OK
[04:19] <Vanessa> acpi -V shows the correct percentage
[04:19] <nicomachus> deadpixel: no, it's not true. but that's really a discussion to be had here.
[04:20] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, now apt-get clean followed by apt-get update
[04:20] <badbodh> all sudo
[04:20] <SeriouslyLaugh> Vanessa random question...but are you running elementary OS?
[04:20] <SeriouslyLaugh> i have this bug too...
[04:20] <nicomachus> deadpixel: no, it's not true. but that's NOT really a discussion to be had here. **
[04:21] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, did that still same vlc problem
[04:21] <Vanessa> Yes, I am. Elementary OS is based on Ubuntu 14.04 so fixes for 14.04 usually work for Elementary OS Freya too.
[04:21] <dontsnee> please help
[04:22] <Vanessa> And nobody responded in #elementary so I figured I'd try here.
[04:22] <SeriouslyLaugh> yeah I saw ;)
[04:22] <deadpixel> nicomachus: i changed my OS from Win7 to Ubuntu Studio right now...  thinking that my PC will never get viruses...
[04:23] <nicomachus> deadpixel: it's much less likely, but it's still possible.
[04:23] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, 'apt-get remove libgles1* libgles2* " show me on pastebin, don;t press yes
[04:23] <nicomachus> deadpixel: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus
[04:24] <nicomachus> dontsnee: you are running low on space on /
[04:24] <deadpixel> nicomachus: thanks for the info :-)
[04:24] <badbodh> Vanessa, elementary introduces tiny little things we don;t know about. so can;t fix it for you.
[04:24] <dontsnee> nicomachus, can I give more disk space or am I doing something wrong? I followed a tutorial to allocate around 15 gb
[04:24] <SeriouslyLaugh> in case anyone else has this bug and is reading these logs, i know this isn't an Ubuntu question, but it's a known bug in elementary OS
[04:25] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13691901/ vlc
[04:25] <nicomachus> dontsnee: you can. Can you paste the output of `sudo fdisk -l`? see if we can find you some space.
[04:27] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, do the same for 'libvlccore8' too.
[04:27] <dontsnee> nicomachus http://pastebin.com/8qHfv1hg
[04:27] <dontsnee> thanks
[04:27] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, same "not installed"
[04:27] <isReKT2000> SeriouslyLaugh, #elementary then, you're welcome :)
[04:27] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, now run "apt-get remove vlc*"
[04:28] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, done same 0 installed
[04:28] <nicomachus> dontsnee: do you have a live USB handy?
[04:28] <Vanessa> Thing is, I was getting this under Ubuntu 15 Wily as well before I switched to Elementary.
[04:28] <functionoverform> Elementary is prettier
[04:29] <functionoverform> but ubuntu is probably easier on a daily basis
[04:29] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, now 'apt-get install libgles1-mesa|pastebinit"
[04:29] <isReKT2000> functionoverform, agreed.
[04:29] <SeriouslyLaugh> badbodh and ovrflw0x not that this helps you but after a fresh install, i was able to run sudo apt-get install vlc successfully with no errors
[04:29] <badbodh> SeriouslyLaugh, shush. hunting turkeys here.
[04:30] <Vanessa> Elementary OS runs faster on my computer than Ubuntu even under a different desktop environment like Cinamon.
[04:30] <functionoverform> well, ok then
[04:30] <badbodh> ok guys, time to move this to offtopic.
[04:30] <Vanessa> That was the biggest thing that influenced me, than and the fact that under the hood they're effectively the same thing.
[04:30] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13692017/
[04:30] <dontsnee> nicomachus: nope should I make one?
[04:30] <badbodh> getting crowded. trying to troubleshoot here
[04:31] <functionoverform> still in vlc land?
[04:31] <Vanessa> It's not really off topic, I'm still having the battery issue and it was effecting Ubuntu Wily using Unity DE as well so I know it's not just an elementary issue.
[04:31] <dontsnee> nicomachus: can't i use gparted right now?
[04:31] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x are you running Lubuntu by any chance?
[04:31] <ovrflw0x> no
[04:31] <nicomachus> dontsnee: yea, you'll wanna make one and then boot up a live version. if you use gparted from your current system, you won't be able to move or resize the partitions because they're currently in use.
[04:32] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, "apt-get install libglapi-mesa"
[04:32] <nicomachus> so you need a live version to resize it.
[04:32] <badbodh> will keep digging into dependency-hell
[04:32] <ovrflw0x> badbodh,  already newest version
[04:32] <nicomachus> this 4.2 kernel is taking wayyyyy too long to download...
[04:32] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, libglapi-mesa is already the newest version.
[04:32] <ovrflw0x> libglapi-mesa set to manually installed.
[04:33] <dontsnee> nicomachus: I don't understand tho, i have at least 100 gb under /hom
[04:33] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, not a good thing, pastebin me the whole thing
[04:33] <dontsnee> */home
[04:34] <nicomachus> dontsnee: you have a separate partition for /home and /. / is your root directory, where all of the OS's "core files" are stored. /home is *your* directory, where your documents/media/etc are stored.
[04:34] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13692110/
[04:34] <nicomachus> dontsnee: so when you upgrade software, it goes to / not /home
[04:34] <dontsnee> nicomachus: okay I see, how much should I allocate once I go in gparted? how much is too much?
[04:35] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, 'apt-get remove libglapi-mesa' , keep a few tabs of pastebin open in your browser. output-paste-link , pronto. keep going.
[04:35] <badbodh> just don;t press Yes
[04:36] <nicomachus> dontsnee: that's up to you, really.
[04:36] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13692189/
[04:37] <dontsnee> cool thx nicomachus
[04:37] <functionoverform> badbodh: look at that mess lol
[04:38] <SeriouslyLaugh> yeah that's not good
[04:38] <nicomachus> dontsnee: keep in mind, it's always a good idea to back up anything important before partitioning!
[04:38] <badbodh> yep, that's how you hunt a turkey. welcome to what we call "dependency-hell"
[04:38] <SchrodingersScat> always backups
[04:39] <badbodh> holy jebus. this will take a while. ovrflw0x , stick around i'll highlight you later
[04:39] <ovrflw0x> k
[04:39] <SeriouslyLaugh> weird that the most basic things aren't there
[04:39] <SeriouslyLaugh> like tar and dpkg
[04:39] <nicomachus> holy cow...
[04:39] <SeriouslyLaugh> PreDepends: tar (>= 1.23)
[04:40] <SeriouslyLaugh> o.O
[04:40] <nicomachus> ovrflw0x: honestly, you may do well to just reinstall fresh...
[04:40] <dontsnee> nicomachus: I have a backup in /home
[04:40] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, ^ +1, will save us some burns :D
[04:40] <nicomachus> this all started because you tried to play a DVD??
[04:41] <nicomachus> dontsnee: backups don't count if they're stored on the machine that you're backing up... :P
[04:41] <badbodh> important thing is what exactly happened. ovrflw0x what ubuntu version are you on, and did you upgrade from an earlier version (which) ?
[04:41] <dontsnee> nicomachus: this is the only hard drive i have hahaha hahah ....
[04:41] <SchrodingersScat> dontsnee: one of the backups shouldn't be in the same physical location, in case of fire, cats, etc.
[04:41] <nicomachus> dontsnee: how big is your /home?
[04:42] <dontsnee> nicomachus: around 100 gb
[04:42] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, i installed from iso of 15.10
[04:42] <dontsnee> SchrodingersScat: I'm screwed then :')
[04:42] <nicomachus> dontsnee: darn, that's a bit big for free cloud storage
[04:42] <nicomachus> MEGA and Drive both offer 50gb free, IIRC
[04:42] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, during installation i selected install 3rd party but didn't select to install updates
[04:42] <dontsnee> yeah, actually all my projects are under git
[04:43] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, none of that does this mess.
[04:43] <SeriouslyLaugh> for what it's worth, running sudo apt-get dist-upgrade installs almost everything in that paste ovrflw0x and badbodh
[04:43] <badbodh> you've obviously done a lot more
[04:43] <dontsnee> i would just have to reset up environments
[04:43] <nicomachus> a cat walked over that keyboard and did some black magic
[04:43] <badbodh> SeriouslyLaugh, that's why you don;t dist-upgrade a broken install.
[04:43] <nicomachus> with root privileges
[04:43] <badbodh> first hunt down the dependency problem one package at a time.
[04:44] <badbodh> till then got to postpone all *upgrades
[04:44] <dontsnee> nicomachus: wish me luck, I'm going to boot up again
[04:44] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, run "cat /var/log/apt/*|pastebinit"
[04:45] <nicomachus> need some spaces there
[04:45] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13692413/
[04:45] <badbodh> do note you system is pretty unfixable, i'm merely trying to pinpoint where exactly you messed up
[04:45] <badbodh> *your system
[04:45] <functionoverform> ovrflw0x: the part where it says you have requested an impossible situation, actually applies to you
[04:46] <badbodh> it happens to new users. don;t add any ppa or third party repo other than those specified in software-sources by default.
[04:47] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, i installed virtualbox
[04:47] <ovrflw0x> is that why this happened?
[04:48] <functionoverform> did you just apt-get virtualbox?
[04:48] <badbodh> virtualbox is already available in repository, should not cause breakages. any ppa/repo you added after install ?
[04:48] <SeriouslyLaugh> ovrflw0x it looks like you uninstalled it too
[04:48] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, yes the one on ubuntu help page
[04:48] <badbodh> link please
[04:48] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox/Installation
[04:49] <ovrflw0x> sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian '$(lsb_release -cs)' contrib non-free' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list" && wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install virtualbox-5.0
[04:50] <nicomachus> badbodh: SeriouslyLaugh: did he upgrade a kernel and stop it halfway? 126-354 is removing just about every essential package
[04:51] <badbodh> SeriouslyLaugh, ovrflw0x yep. that oracle repo broke the toy.
[04:51] <nicomachus> I could be wrong, but... apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-generic may do it
[04:51] <SeriouslyLaugh> looks like he purged the virtualbox install and took a lot with it
[04:52] <SeriouslyLaugh> good catch nicomachus
[04:52] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, this is where you do a fresh install and exclusively use software-centre or apt-get install to fetch your packages.
[04:52] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, i only followed ubuntu page!!!
[04:52] <nicomachus> ovrflw0x: you may be able to try `sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-generic`. at this point, can't hurt.
[04:52] <badbodh> rest of us will be enjoying the literature for future reference
[04:53] <badbodh> nicomachus, nah, let him start fresh
[04:53] <SeriouslyLaugh> aren't those wiki pages community supplied?
[04:53] <functionoverform> yeah, i haven't seen that many dependencies get wiped out on my machines awhile, impressive.
[04:53] <cpTylor> Needing some guidance... netstat -a is showing a ssh stablished connection to a foreign address like x.*.*.*:web-pa:*, where * are numbers. Is this an IP? What is an IP starting with X?
[04:54] <functionoverform> ovrflw0x: just goes to show that you can't trust every support page you find on the internet.
[04:54] <nicomachus> badbodh: why? and SeriouslyLaugh: yes, most, but that page is pretty old and  should be accurate.
[04:54] <badbodh> nicomachus, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13692189/
[04:55] <nicomachus> badbodh: yea, I saw that. they're all kernel packages.
[04:55] <badbodh> nicomachus, he's all yours then, happy fixing. i'll be around if you need something.
[04:57] <ovrflw0x> so i take it nothing can be done now to fix?
[04:57] <ovrflw0x> only reinstall?
[04:57] <nicomachus> ovrflw0x: did you try `sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-generic`?
[04:57] <ovrflw0x> yes
[04:57] <nicomachus> what was the result?
[04:58] <ovrflw0x> nicomachus, Reinstallation of linux-image-generic is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[04:58] <ovrflw0x> 0 up
[04:58] <nicomachus> I got nothing else then.
[04:59] <ovrflw0x> teehee k ;)
[04:59] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, it's a community wiki article, not official documentation. look at the top bar. anyone can write an article. be careful with these in future :)
[04:59] <ovrflw0x> right
[05:00] <badbodh> nicomachus, :P
[05:00] <AssociateX> How do I view my copy history?
[05:01] <SeriouslyLaugh> AssociateX like your clipboard copies?
[05:02] <AssociateX> SeriouslyLaugh, yes
[05:02] <badbodh> AssociateX, you need a clipboard tool for that, i use parcellite , there's glipper, klipper, clipit, gpaste
[05:02] <SeriouslyLaugh> if you aren't using some kind of 3rd party application, there's no way to go back and see
[05:02] <SeriouslyLaugh> afaik
[05:06] <af_> hello
[05:07] <af_> actually i need to install eclipse
[05:07] <af_> i downloaded and unzip it
[05:07] <af_> now want to make it appear in dashboard
[05:08] <functionoverform> did you apt-get install eclipse?
[05:08] <af_> no pkg download
[05:08] <af_> just downlaod from website and unzip it
[05:09] <functionoverform> well, do you know where you unzipped it?
[05:09] <af_> yes,,,/home folder
[05:09] <functionoverform> and you can use the ubuntu software center for eclipse i think
[05:10] <functionoverform> which should install it neatly for you
[05:10] <ThiagoCMC> +1
[05:11] <af_> actually when i unzip it in /opt/ folder,,and make desktop file to make it dash board accessible it works fine,,,but i want it to install locally i mean in home folder
[05:11] <af_> but after unzipping it in home,,,desktop file refrence not working for dash
[05:12] <functionoverform> again... try uninstalling it, and then using the ubuntu software center to install it
[05:12] <functionoverform> or apt-get from a terminal
[05:13] <functionoverform> it will put things in the correct locations, with the correct references
[05:14] <af_> r u sure it will install it locally and not globally?
[05:14] <functionoverform> you don't want other users to have access to it?
[05:15] <functionoverform> a software development platform for java?
[05:15] <af_> actually i want it potable with home folder
[05:15] <af_> *portable
[05:15] <af_> yes
[05:16] <functionoverform> I don't know why you would desperately need it in a specific location, as it has to put several things in several places to function properly.
[05:18] <functionoverform> you could always throw the zip file in the home folder so you can extract it whenever you want it "portable"
[05:19] <af_> serveral things? one unzipepd folder and one desktop entry file to refer it fom dash
[05:20] <functionoverform> and you're using unity?
[05:20] <af_> i already put it in home,,,the problem is it cannot accesses from dash
[05:20] <af_> yes unity
[05:21] <ThiagoCMC> af_, go for "apt-get install eclipse" and give it a try... All users of the system will be able to use it, without any effort
[05:22] <af_> ah ok
[05:22] <ThiagoCMC> On Xenial (Ubuntu dev branch), it is "sudo apt-get install eclipse-platform"...
[05:22] <af_> ok thnx
[05:22] <functionoverform> right, like the software you create will not be stuck in other folders, you can put that stuff in home
[05:22] <ThiagoCMC> you can also try: apt-cache search eclipse
[05:22] <ThiagoCMC> to see what is in the Ubuntu repo
[05:23] <ThiagoCMC> ready for you...   ;-)
[05:23] <ThiagoCMC> then, each user will have its own "Eclipse preferences" stored individually on each /home/user/.eclipse (or something like that) ...   ;-)
[05:23] <af_> haha ok :-)
[05:23] <ThiagoCMC> =)
[05:31] <af_> hey guyz,,,it says u have held broken packages
[05:32] <af_> sudo apt-get install eclipse
[05:32] <nicomachus> af_: sudo apt-get clean
[05:32] <ThiagoCMC> then, sudo apt-get update
[05:32] <ThiagoCMC> =P
[05:33] <ThiagoCMC> and try install again
[05:33] <af_> tried but no f=difference
[05:34] <nicomachus> af_: did you do `sudo apt-get clean`?
[05:34] <af_> yes
[05:34] <af_> and then update
[05:34] <af_> and the n install
[05:34] <nicomachus> ok, try `sudo dpkg --configure -a`
[05:34] <ThiagoCMC> af_, Ubuntu have something interesting, if you don't have something installed but, it is available, then, you can just try to type: "eclipse", if it is not installed, Ubuntu will tell you how to install it
[05:35] <ThiagoCMC> don't have "gimp"? type it and Ubuntu will tell you how to install it... same for everything else
[05:35] <nicomachus> not everything...
[05:35] <ThiagoCMC> true
[05:35] <ThiagoCMC> =)
[05:35] <nicomachus> only for stuff in the repos. and even then only the repos you have enabled.
[05:35] <ThiagoCMC> sure
[05:37] <af_> ah well i tried all but it says u have held broken packages nicomachus ThiagoCMC
[05:37] <ThiagoCMC> :-/
[05:37] <af_> ubuntu 14.04 lts
[05:37] <forevnewb> Anyone had an issue where ubuntu boots to black screen, but ctrl+alt+f2 gets to terminal? This was after command-line install -- no X. I'm thinking it's my intel driver?
[05:37] <ThiagoCMC> mind to pastebin the error?
[05:38] <af_> pastebin?
[05:39] <nicomachus> paste.ubuntu.com
[05:39] <af_> packaes have unmet dependencies
[05:39] <ThiagoCMC> copy and paste your error message (all of it) on paste bin
[05:39] <ThiagoCMC> http://pastebin.com/
[05:39] <ThiagoCMC> or ubuntu one
[05:39] <af_> ok
[05:39] <nicomachus> or you can install "pastebinit" and type `your command | pastebinit`
[05:40] <dontsnee> nicomachus: I'm back!
[05:40] <nicomachus> dontsnee: all good now?
[05:40] <dontsnee> yeap, I stole 60 gb from my windows partition
[05:40] <af_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13693843/
[05:41] <af_> ThiagoCMC, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13693843/
[05:41] <dontsnee> time to watch game of thrones while playing soda dungeon
[05:42] <dontsnee> thanks anyways
[05:42] <dontsnee> bye now
[05:42] <ThiagoCMC> Mmm... Maybe, somehow, you might be missing 1 or more repositories... Copy and pastebin contents of /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:43] <af_> ok
[05:44] <nicomachus> 60 gb?? lol
[05:45] <ThiagoCMC> af_, my sources.list looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13693948/
[05:45] <af_> ThiagoCMC, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13693958/
[05:45] <ThiagoCMC> =)
[05:46] <ThiagoCMC> it seems that you have all set...   :-/
[05:46] <af_> :P
[05:46] <af_> now what to do?
[05:47] <af_> have u use desktop entry file
[05:48] <Jordab> Hi everyone, running ubuntu from a DVD trying to recover files from windows partition and getting "resource temporarily unavailable". Any way to fix this?
[05:49] <bob_> Привет
[05:49] <ThiagoCMC> af_, someone is facing the same problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2233450  might help ... is this a fresh install Ubuntu 14.04 ?
[05:49] <af_> yes
[05:49] <nicomachus> !ru | bob_
[05:50] <nicomachus> Jordab: where are you seeing that?
[05:50] <ThiagoCMC> You might also give a try on Ubuntu 15.10 ...  Sorry, I would like to help you more but, I never used Eclipse...  :-(
[05:50] <Jordab> nicomachus: While clicking on it from nautilus
[05:50] <nicomachus> clicking on what? the windows partition?
[05:51] <Jordab> Yes
[05:51] <nicomachus> ok. You probably just need to mount it. Should be able to right-click and Nautilus and select "Mount"
[05:51] <nicomachus> in Nautilus**
[05:51] <af_> but ThiagoCMC i get same error while downloading other softwaes as awell
[05:51] <af_> may b version issue
[05:51] <af_> 15.10 is up,,,nice to hear
[05:52] <af_> ThiagoCMC, have u use desktop entry file
[05:53] <Jordab> nicomachus: http://hastebin.com/udelodilod.vb : Full error
[05:54] <nicomachus> Jordab: sudo :)
[05:54] <Jordab> Aiight
[05:55] <Jordab> Terrible at mounting, what command should I run?
[05:56] <nicomachus> you can do `gksu nautilus` and open nautilus as root, then right-click the windows partition and mount it.
[05:59] <Jordab> nicomachus: Doing that I do not see the partition.
[06:04] <goddard> any idea where i can find the source for gnu tools?
[06:04] <goddard> like lsusb for example
[06:06] <functionoverform> http://www.codeforge.com/read/157052/lsusb.c__html
[06:06] <functionoverform> its right there goddard
[06:07] <Jordab> Anything else I should do, nicomachus?
[06:08] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, you there dude?
[06:08] <badbodh> yes
[06:09] <ovrflw0x> reinstalled getting same message
[06:10] <badbodh> you didn't dist-upgrade right ?
[06:10] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13694579/ <--
[06:10] <ovrflw0x> no
[06:10] <badbodh> better
[06:11] <badbodh> and the 'dkpg --configure -a' and 'apt-get install -f' ?
[06:11] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, all OK
[06:13] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, ?
[06:13] <badbodh> i'm going through earlier logs you provided
[06:14] <goddard> functionoverform: cool
[06:14] <Jordab> Can anyone help me?
[06:15] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, 'sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep hold |pastebinit'
[06:16] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, empty doc
[06:16] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep "hold" | pastebinit
[06:17] <badbodh> are you using a beta iso?
[06:17] <ovrflw0x> no badbodh one found on official ubuntu website
[06:17] <ovrflw0x> 15.10
[06:17] <ovrflw0x> wily
[06:17] <nicomachus> sorry Jordab, I was afk.
[06:17] <nicomachus> what partition is your Windows partition on?
[06:17] <badbodh> ok. if it happens on a fresh virgin install, something is messed up.
[06:18] <Jordab> No worries, nicomachus
[06:18] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, create a forum post, mention ubuntu version 15.10 32/64bit , your terminal output.
[06:19] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, ece816e12f97018fa3d4974b5fd27337  ubuntu-15.10-desktop-amd64.iso
[06:19] <nicomachus> ovrflw0x: what are you installing ubuntu from? usb?
[06:19] <ovrflw0x> yes usb
[06:19] <nicomachus> did you do a checksum when you created that?
[06:19] <ovrflw0x> no
[06:19] <nicomachus> ... do that.
[06:20] <ovrflw0x> nicomachus, everything else is running fine
[06:20] <Jordab> What else can I do if that doesn't show, nicomachus?
[06:21] <nicomachus> Jordab: we can manually mount it into /media/windows. Do you know the partition number for the windows partition?
[06:21] <Jordab> I do. /dev/sda3
[06:21] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, run a checksum, doesn't hurt. gimme "cat /var/log/apt/*|pastebinit" again
[06:21] <nicomachus> Jordab: ok cool. `sudo mkdir /media/windows`
[06:22] <nicomachus> then `sudo mount /dev/sda5 /media/windows
[06:22] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13694867/
[06:22] <Jordab> ...sda3?
[06:22] <nicomachus> yea yea yea. sorry!
[06:22] <Jordab> Still unavailable :-(
[06:23] <nicomachus> boooo. is this a dual-boot machine or are you using ubuntu from a live disk?
[06:23] <Jordab> live dvd, yes
[06:24] <nicomachus> what version of windows is it?
[06:24] <Jordab> Windows 7 x64
[06:25] <Jordab> Won't boot.
[06:25] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, run checksum yet?
[06:26] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, checksum on what?
[06:26] <badbodh> the iso image
[06:26] <ovrflw0x> i already posted it
[06:26] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, ece816e12f97018fa3d4974b5fd27337  ubuntu-15.10-desktop-amd64.iso
[06:27] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, i use "RAWWRITE" to copy iso to USB
[06:27] <ovrflw0x> used*
[06:27] <nicomachus> Jordab: I'm googling around... not sure what's causing that error.
[06:29] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, your checksum is fine. http://mirror.pnl.gov/releases/15.10/MD5SUMS
[06:29] <ovrflw0x> i know
[06:29] <badbodh> if checksum is messed up, it won;t boot live to begin with
[06:29] <ovrflw0x> right
[06:29] <Jordanb> nicomachus: I'm pretty sure the hard drive is gone or failing
[06:29] <nicomachus> well, Jordanb, you can use SMART to check it from Ubuntu
[06:30] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, forget command line. try installing vlc using ubuntu's appgrid or whatever GUI it's using nowdays
[06:30] <nicomachus> !smart | Jordanb
[06:30] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, same message i get
[06:30] <ovrflw0x> from application centre
[06:30] <ovrflw0x> center*
[06:30] <badbodh> then problem is distro level, the big guys will know. create a forum post for this.
[06:31] <Jordanb> `Can you instruct me how?
[06:31] <badbodh> nothing should break on a fresh install.
[06:31] <ovrflw0x> so Mr. badbodh a.k.a avg. command linefu Joe where should i post this problem? teehee
[06:32] <badbodh> i'm just a user buddy, not a dev.
[06:32] <ovrflw0x> ahaa OKay
[06:32] <nicomachus> Jordanb: Sure. if you open your Dash and search for "Disks", then open that up
[06:32] <BoomerBile> Ok, so i only have a kubuntu installation dvd, so i installed kubuntu... then i switched to lubuntu from kubuntu by installing lubuntu-desktop and removed all of the kubuntu stuff and then I cloned an lubuntu install from my netbook to this machine to make sure that i had everything... everything is running fine except
[06:32] <BoomerBile> lightdm will not start on system boot
[06:32] <BoomerBile> any suggestions?
[06:32] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, where to post which forum?
[06:32] <badbodh> ubuntu forum, duh!
[06:33] <ovrflw0x> askubuntu?
[06:33] <nicomachus> Jordanb: then select your harddrive from the left hand column, and click the hamburger menu on the top right, then select "SMART data & self-tests", then click "Start Self-test"
[06:34] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, http://ubuntuforums.org/
[06:35] <badbodh> be sure to mention it;s a fresh install with no additional repo enabled, that wil avoid unnecessary generic enquiries
[06:36] <nicomachus> ubuntuforums.org? use askubuntu...
[06:38] <badbodh> ubuntuforums off the menu?
[06:38] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26957117/unmet-dependency-when-installing-vlc-on-ubuntu-14-04
[06:39] <nicomachus> I mean, it's fine and all, but askubuntu is IMO better and has more traffic
[06:40] <ovrflw0x> badbodh, same type of problem occurs while install "chromium-browser"
[06:40] <badbodh> i prefer official channels. but anything that works is good.
[06:41] <Jordanb> Which mode, nicomachus?
[06:41] <nicomachus> Jordanb: mode...?
[06:42] <nicomachus> ohhh, short at first, then extended if you want to wait for it to run for a couple hours.
[06:42] <badbodh> ovrflw0x, i'm out of ideas tbh. 'cat /etc/apt/sources.list |pastebinit' and 'cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* |pastebinit'
[06:42] <Jordanb> Short, Extended or Conveyance?
[06:42] <Jordanb> "474 bad sectors"?
[06:43] <nicomachus> yea... HDD is failing.
[06:44] <Jordanb> Gotcha
[06:45] <Jordanb> nicomachus: Is there any way I can recover my data?
[06:46] <nicomachus> Yes. If you can get it mounted it should be an easy job... hopefully. But I honestly am not sure why it's not mounting. I'm far from an expert at this.
[06:46] <Jordanb> I understand
[06:47] <nicomachus> 474 bad sectors out of 500000000 or so isn't *horrible*, but you need to get that data off there asap and then replace the hardware.
[06:47] <Jordanb> Right
[06:47] <nicomachus> I wouldn't touch it too much until you've got a real solution, though. every write and re-write runs the risk of making the problem worse when it comes to failing disks.
[06:48] <nicomachus> there are a lot more guys here during the day (western time zones) that will probably see whatever it is we're missing.
[06:48] <Jordanb> Okay, yeah. I'll stop by then. PST?
[06:49] <nicomachus> yea, 10am-ish PST should be good, up until 5-6pm
[06:49] <Jordanb> Alright
[06:50] <Jordanb> 500 bad sectors and 90% left to go

[07:41] <Vanessa> I'm trying to setup an IRC server on Ubuntu 14.04 running on an Amazon AWS server. It keeps telling me to install identd, but apt-get doesn't seem to have a package called identd. Any ideas what it's talking about? I tried asking in the ircd-coders IRC but nobody seems to be awake.
[07:42] <Vanessa> Web searches on the subject are not coming up with anything helpful.
[07:42] <SCHAAP137> Vanessa, oidentd
[07:42] <Vanessa> Is there something I need to do to configure it?
[07:43] <SCHAAP137> hmm, i don't think so
[07:43] <SCHAAP137> i never had to change anything, and my ircd works well
[07:44] <rwp> Vanessa, identd is obsolete in the last 20 years. Why would anything want to install it? Even in the old days it was only useful on local trusted networks.
[07:44] <Vanessa> It's still saying that.
[07:44] <OerHeks> could be identd service on port 113
[07:45] <Vanessa> (02:44:29 AM) hybrid8.debian.local: (notice) *** Notice -- You need to install identd to use this server
[07:45] <SCHAAP137> Vanessa, what ircd are you planning to use? i like inspircd
[07:45] <Vanessa> I'm using ircd-hybrid
[07:46] <rwp> What exactly is complaining about wanting identd and exactly how is it complaining?
[07:46] <Vanessa> Is inspircd better? I was just following the first guide I saw online for setting up an IRC server under Ubuntu Server Edition.
[07:46] <rwp> A lot of things traditionally check identd, log that it isn't there, and keep going.  That is considered normal these days.
[07:46] <Vanessa> ircd-hybrid says that when I try to connect to the server using Pidgin.
[07:46] <Vanessa> It then kicks me from the server
[07:46] <SCHAAP137> well, there are a lot of different IRC servers you can choose from
[07:46] <rwp> Hmm...
[07:47] <SCHAAP137> you don't really need a guide for inspircd... the whole config file is littered with comments containing examples and explanations of options
[07:48] <Vanessa> Ok, I'll try that.
[07:49] <SCHAAP137> and the installation is quite easy
[07:49] <rwp> The idea behind identd is that on a trusted local network a process on a client connects to a server.  Because the network is trusted the server calls back to the client and asks, "Who owns that process that just called me" and  can trust the answer it supplies.
[07:50] <rwp> It is a completely unstrustable answer on the hostile Internet.
[07:50] <Vanessa> How do I uninstall hybserv2 then? I had to compile it from the sources. Or do I still need it for inspircd?
[07:50] <SCHAAP137> you wont need it for inspircd
[07:50] <Vanessa> So how do I uninstall it?
[07:51] <SCHAAP137> sudo make uninstall, usually works
[07:51] <rwp> Did you install it using 'make install'?  Then try 'make uninstall' and see if it reverses it.  Some do and some don't.  Depends upon if someone has coded it into the Makefile.
[07:51] <Vanessa> make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'.  Stop.
[07:52] <rwp> If not then one needs to figure out what was installed and then manually remove and clean up after it.
[07:52] <rwp> How?  There isn't any one canonical correct way.  It is always a scramble.
[07:52] <rwp> I like to install into a subdirectory of /tmp and then make a list of files and directories that it installed.
[07:52] <rwp> Then use that list to remove the files and rmdir the directories.
[07:53] <rwp> To install into a subdirectory depends upon the Makefile.  Sometimes it supports DESTDIR.  Sometimes only "prefix".  Sometimes nothing.  Depends upon the project.
[07:54] <Vanessa> Looks like it put it in /usr/local
[07:54] <Vanessa> ok
[07:54] <Vanessa> It's gone now
[07:55] <rwp> Yay! :-)
[07:55] <SCHAAP137> Vanessa, you could create a directory /opt, to install manually compiled stuff there, each it's own subdir, this way it doesn't mess up the original tree
[07:56] <rwp> GNU stow is also a useful tool in managing the manually compiled stuff too.
[07:56] <rwp> http://www.gnu.org/software/stow/
[07:57] <SCHAAP137> i heard about it, haven't tried it yet

[08:19] <fredricks> how do you get vf driver for sr-iov to work on ubuntu? i'm using hyper-v gen 2 guest, managed to get everything but sr-iov working.
[08:20] <Vanessa> It's working! Awesome! I was finally able to connect to it! Thanks so much!
[08:20] <mrx> hey
[08:20] <fredricks> kind of confused by the kernel changelog, it mentions vRSS working but it also mentions them just adding VF message handling to the driver. Which would mean sr-iov wasn't completely implemented.
[08:21] <mrx> so, guys
[08:21] <mrx> who here?
[08:21] <fredricks> erbody here
[08:21] <mrx> nice
[08:21] <fredricks> just look out for the trigger happy mods
[08:21] <fredricks> they'll tell us we shouldn't be casually talking like this
[08:22] <mrx> ok
[08:25] <nilos> hi
[08:25] <mrx> hey
[08:25] <fredricks> hi
[08:25] <OerHeks> fredricks, i think you want to reask in #ubuntu-server too.
[08:26] <fredricks> i just might, im going to try emailing the package maintainer again
[08:26] <OerHeks> specific intel card function, never handled that.
[08:26] <fredricks> vf functions
[08:26] <fredricks> its a part of sr-iov
[08:27] <fredricks> it allows for more direct access to the hardware via driver means
[08:27] <fredricks> instead of going through the "virtual" bus and having to be copied over and over
[08:27] <OerHeks> i was just reading http://docs.openstack.org/networking-guide/adv_config_sriov.html
[08:27] <fredricks> ^
[08:28] <fredricks> its pretty neat and an underused feature
[08:28] <mircx1> Hola
[08:28] <mircx1> i need please help about something i`m try write in root that
[08:28] <mircx1> sudo service apache2 restart
[08:28] <fredricks> sr-iov also allows us to use RSS (or vRSS) which reduces cpu overhead
[08:28] <mircx1> and i get error
[08:29] <mircx1> how i fix this?
[08:29] <mircx1> http://pastie.org/10610378
[08:29] <fredricks> at the same time vRSS allows for multiple cpu's to be used for processing of network traffic
[08:31] <OerHeks> mircx1, looks like an other application/service is using port 80 > see what is using it > sudo netstat -ltnp | grep ':80'
[08:32] <mircx1> and i kill this?
[08:32] <mircx1> OerHeks?
[08:32] <fredricks> OerHeks do they have a virtualization channel by chance?
[08:33] <mircx1> OerHeks this what i see
[08:33] <mircx1> tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:80              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
[08:35] <fredricks> the socket could be blocked by something else did you try to see if something else has occupied port 80?
[08:35] <mrx> who is girl here ?
[08:35] <fredricks> there are no girls on the internet
[08:35] <mrx> ohh
[08:35] <OerHeks> fredricks, not sure about ubuntu virt channels, maybe it is an hyper-v issue ..
[08:36] <mircx1> then how i shutdown it?
[08:36] <fredricks> thats the issue OerHeks the implements for other virtualization solutions were software driven and not paravirtual
[08:37] <fredricks> mircx1: you need to find out what process has locked that port
[08:38] <fredricks> i would do netstat -nlap|grep 80
[08:38] <mircx1> i do
[08:38] <mircx1> this
[08:38] <mircx1> tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:80              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
[08:38] <OerHeks> lsof -i :80
[08:39] <mircx1> this what i see what i need to kill?
[08:39] <mircx1> http://pastie.org/10610387
[08:39] <fredricks> that also works :P
[08:39] <fredricks> cache server...
[08:40] <mircx1> OerHeks
[08:41] <fredricks> do you have nginx and apache listening on the same ports?
[08:41] <mircx1> i dont know
[08:42] <fredricks> you do
[08:42] <mircx1> really no i use with ubuntu version 10
[08:42] <mircx1> and what i need to kill?
[08:42] <fredricks> nginx
[08:42] <fredricks> do you even use nginx?
[08:42] <mircx1> no
[08:43] <fredricks> yeah you should kill it then and likely deconfigure it
[08:44] <mircx1> never mind now is ok thanks about the help
[08:44] <mircx1> :)

However, mint is based on an old version of Ubuntu and I would need some of the features in 15.04. Because of Unity vanilla Ubuntu won't come into question, ...
[09:47] <Dakkus> ... but how is Kubuntu these days? Can I reach all the settings point-and-click like on vanilla Ubuntu/Unity?
[09:47] <OerHeks> tirengarfio, just read your bugreport, and found this simular https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/1421117

[10:04] <shantanu> thanks for your response let me try this option
[10:04] <zero_> shantanu : yoy simple go to google
[10:04] <zero_> click download google chrome
[10:05] <zero_> It will automatically open with Ubuntu software centre
[10:05] <Dakkus> zero_: Using apt-get is a better idea. Simpler.
[10:05] <zero_> it will ask for you password and then will get installed
[10:05] <Dakkus> Ah, ok.
[10:05] <zero_> I agree to you @Dakkus

[10:20] <cfhowlett> ovrflw0x, no idea.  #ubuntu-server might know more.
[10:21] <ovrflw0x> cfhowlett, don't you get tired of slow servers?
[10:21] <cfhowlett> ovrflw0x, I'm in China.  My selected server is 6 hours behind. Has not been an issue.

[11:23] <cfhowlett> I'd guess a cron job of some type.
[11:27] <MonkeyDust> ovrflw0x  yes, you can do that with RTCwake (RTC=real time command) ... you wake it up from suspend or hibernate, not from shutdown

[11:39] <sorin-mihai> i have a strange problem with LVM2. after messing up the partition layout, I decided to reinstall and recreate the layout. deleted the old LVs, VG and PV, created a new PV on a smaller phisical partition, associated that PV to a VG and created 2 LVs to hold the ubuntu installation. then I created another PV on a 2nd phisical partition and only associated it to a 2nd VG, but didn't create any LV. install went fine, system rebooted and all
[11:39] <sorin-mihai> seem in order. except one thing
[11:39] <sorin-mihai> the 1st PV and VG have a bigger size than they should, qhich is equal to the size of the disk, not the size of the 1st partiton holding them.
[11:40] <sorin-mihai> s/qhich/which
[11:41] <sorin-mihai> is there any way I can fix that?

[13:18] <mircx1> please help again i get error mysqlConn.h how i fix it?
[13:18] <bekks> mircx1: "mysqlConn.h" is a filename. Whats the full error you get when doing what exactly, using which Ubuntu exactly?
[13:21] <MonkeyDust> mircx1  what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[13:22] <mircx1> in ubuntu 14.04 is work good but in ubuntu 10.04 i get that error
[13:22] <bekks> !10.04 | mircx1
[13:22] <MonkeyDust> mircx1 10.04 is dead
[13:24] <mircx1> ohh come one
[13:24] <mircx1> what this no possible fix it?
[13:24] <bekks> mircx1: Nothing to discuss about, 10.04 is dead. Use a supported release.
[13:24] <OerHeks> no fix needed, as it is not a valid bug in supported versions
[13:25] <MonkeyDust> mircx1  upgrade first, then ask again
[13:27] <OerHeks> people running unsecure machines on the internet give linux a bad name :-(
[13:28] <Naughx> Not worst than Windows XP.
[13:28] <MonkeyDust> which is also dead
[13:29] <Naughx> yep
[13:29] <BluesKaj> ot linux has a bad name from the media. as well, people think linux is used only by black hat hackers
[13:29] <OerHeks> ... but .. xp users dominate the charts
[13:29] <BluesKaj> OerHeks,^
[13:32] <windearthfirerai> peanut butter jelly time! D-><  j/k
[13:33] <mircx1> i have problem with update
[13:33] <bekks> mircx1: Which problem?
[13:33] <MonkeyDust> mircx1  now you now why
[13:34] <Naughx> if you need to run very old softwares you can usually do in a VM that isn't connected to the internet.
[13:34]  * OerHeks whispers !eolupgrade
[13:34] <MonkeyDust> VM's  <3
[13:34] <mircx1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13705676/
[13:35] <bekks> !eoluprade | mircx1
[13:35] <bekks> !eolupgrade | mircx1
[13:35] <MonkeyDust> mircx1  " 404  Not Found"  <-- ppa doenst exist
[13:35] <bekks> mircx1: Please read that article for updating your EOL release.
[13:36] <k1l_> well, 10.04 is dead and doesnt get any security updates anymore now.
[13:36] <mircx1> ok
[13:36] <mircx1> thanks
[13:36] <Naughx> download 14.04 LTS or 15.10 and install it.
[13:37] <Naughx> A clean install
[13:37] <MonkeyDust> but backup first
[13:37] <OerHeks> that ppa has no lucid packages anymore.
[13:38] <MonkeyDust> mircx1  you have work to do!
[13:40] <mircx1> lol MonkeyDust tomorrow i have work to do in Welding :) i`m no much to know about linux anyway only i try it
[13:43] <espnoob> is it safe to abort a started format of an external harddrive with gparted?
[13:43] <espnoob> it is a USB harddrive
[13:43] <espnoob> and is it faster to format from a laptop than a raspberry pi? does it matter?
[13:44] <OerHeks> technically no, a 'soft' stop won't damage.
[13:45] <k1l_> espnoob: the r pi is known to have very bad usb performance. but afaik the limit is the hdd controller
[13:45] <espnoob> ok
[13:45] <espnoob> why isnt exFAT available as format?
[13:45] <espnoob> is that bc of the harddrive?
[13:45] <espnoob> i want a format that works for rapsbbery pi, ubuntu and windows
[13:45] <espnoob> since i might swap it between them
[13:46] <MonkeyDust> espnoob  FYI, there's also #raspberrypi
[13:48] <OerHeks> you can read/write exFat with fuse, but when you run into issues, you need windows to fix it
[13:49] <espnoob> ok, so primarily i want to use it with raspbberypi, secondly with ubuntu and maybe with windows. is there any diff between ubuntu and raspberry?
[13:50] <OerHeks> espnoob, yes, one is a computer, other is an operating system
[13:50] <espnoob> yes but i meant raspbian
[13:51] <espnoob> linux distros are the same in this aspect?
[13:51] <bekks> No, they arent.
[13:51] <espnoob> whats the quickest way to format it to ext4?
[13:52] <OerHeks> gparted
[13:52] <espnoob> ok, how long will it take?
[13:53] <espnoob> is it faster from my latop than from the raspberry?
[13:53] <k1l_> espnoob: raspbian is especially made for the rpi. so better ask them in #raspbian or where there channel is
[13:54] <espnoob> what is the diff between full and quick format?
[13:54] <bekks> espnoob: mkfs.ext4 take just a few seconds.
[13:55] <espnoob> whats the diff to gparted?
[13:55] <espnoob> mkfs.ext4, how do i wirte more exactly?
[13:55] <bekks> BAsically nothing, both use libext.
[13:56] <OerHeks> spawning so many questions without waiting for an answer .. are you really interested in the answer or just keeping us busy ?
[13:57] <espnoob> im interested in how long it will take to quick format
[13:57] <k1l_> espnoob: ask in #raspbian
[13:58] <DimitrisGR> hello all, I have dumped a raw image from a flash drive using the dd command. I want to try to rescue any files (if possible). Do you know any tool that I can use?
[14:03] <OerHeks> mount the img in a loop, and try to copy you data ? some examples http://askubuntu.com/questions/69363/mount-single-partition-from-image-of-entire-disk-device
[14:03] <BluesKaj> DimitrisGR, the outputfile is a target partition ?  if so then the files should be accessible from ubuntu file manager if it's on the same pc
[14:10] <DimitrisGR> OerHeks, thanks for the reply. the problem is that the partition table is corrupted. i tried some hints that were given in the link. for example: "sudo losetup -f --show -P /path/to/image.img" and then i try "mount /dev/loop0 /mountpoin" but I get the error:"wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
[14:10] <DimitrisGR>        missing codepage or helper program, or other error"
[14:14] <sallu> Hi all
[14:15] <ryan_> hi
[14:16] <sallu> is there any difference in between Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS and ubuntu 15
[14:16] <sallu> ?
[14:16] <k1l_> sallu: yes.
[14:16] <LeviM> Well, yes.
[14:17] <barnito> the difference is less than 1
[14:17] <k1l_> sallu: everything got new version numbers. and 15.04 was the first ubuntu with systemd as init
[14:17] <barnito> Lol
[14:17] <sallu> k1l_, LTS support is the only difference
[14:17] <uruk> how to control kb/s with wget?
[14:17] <k1l_> sallu: no
[14:17] <LeviM> Will Ubuntu be switching from grub to systemd's loader?
[14:18] <LeviM> I haven't followed new features and changes in a while.
[14:18] <bekks> LeviM: systemd isnt a bootloader, is it?
[14:18] <k1l_> LeviM: dont know, but 16.04 comes with grub. grub is a good working solution tested long time.
[14:18] <sallu> k1l_, oh ok but i installed Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS a week ago, and now i am confused when my friend sent me a message that he installed version 15, is there latest version not on official site
[14:18] <sallu> ?
[14:18] <k1l_> sallu: there is no "15"
[14:18] <joeytwiddle> uruk, man wget.  --limit-rate
[14:19] <k1l_> sallu: ubuntu versions are year.month. so 15.04 or 15.10
[14:19] <LeviM> bekks: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd-boot
[14:19] <k1l_> !releases | sallu
[14:19] <sallu> k1l_, yeah the same i was gonna say,
[14:19] <LeviM> Everyone I know that is familiar with grub always sighs when I say I'm using grub2 and not grub.
[14:19] <hicoleriv1> How do I make images display in my terminal (in w3m etc.) like in this screenshot:https://goo.gl/8zduzc ? I'm using xfce4-terminal.
[14:20] <sallu> k1l_, is this usser ubottu is a bot ?
[14:20] <bekks> LeviM: I dont think Ubuntu will switch to that anytime soon.
[14:20] <k1l_> !bot | sallu
[14:20] <sallu> thanks ubottu
[14:20] <LeviM> I'm not very familiar with boot loaders in general, but single-file config's like systemd's boot loader or grub 1 seem nicer than grub2.
[14:20] <LeviM> But again, maybe that's just because I'm a noob ^^
[14:21] <joeytwiddle> lilo was nicer.  more colourful
[14:21] <k1l_> hicoleriv1: install w3m-img
[14:21] <sallu> k1l_, ok thanks, i installed Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS along with windows as dual boot in uefi mode, as windows 10 was installed before.. so all i am seeing only windows boots up but i can run ubuntu by pressing to f9 and then choose ubuntu
[14:21] <k1l_> LeviM: the default user doesnt neet to touch grub anyway. so he is not bothered
[14:22] <kunaldawn> whats going on here?
[14:22] <k1l_> *need
[14:22] <k1l_> kunaldawn: technical ubuntu support
[14:23] <hicoleriv1> k1l_: It didn't work.
[14:23] <sallu> k1l_, my question is i can set boot path of ubuntu by going to bios f10 and then in the "customized boot" option add >. boot path of ubuntu, but why ubuntu is not so much quick with such type of issues, like famous issues with brightness control and all that
[14:24] <k1l_> hicoleriv1: "my car is broken". that doesnt help to find the solution neither :)
[14:25] <sallu> lolx
[14:25] <hicoleriv1> k1l_: Well, I installed the package, but it still shows everything in plain text.
[14:25] <k1l_> sallu: the support from hardware like brightness control depends on the manufacturer shipping drivers for his non-standard hardware
[14:27] <sallu> k1l_, non standard hardware, do you think intel hd5500 is non standard,? . no dedicated graphic card installed , only intel hd5500
[14:27] <hicoleriv1> k1l_:also, when I try to use fbi, it gives an error showing this: ioctl VT_GETSTATE: Inappropriate ioctl for device (not a linux console?)
[14:27] <k1l_> sallu: no. there are standards for the brightness controll etc. and if your laptopmaker doesnt use that standard, that is an issue
[14:27] <sallu> k1l_, i mean i can control brightness but it doesn't retain its value when i reboot the pc
[14:28] <k1l_> hicoleriv1: try xterm
[14:28] <ovrflw0x> how to install "Oracle JDK" on ubuntu 15.10?
[14:29] <sallu> k1l_, just a personal query , do you have Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS or the latest release ubuntu 15.10 on the month of october
[14:29] <hicoleriv1> k1l_: Tried it out, same thing.
[14:30] <ovrflw0x> is this right method to install java jdk oracle? http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/09/install-oracle-java-ubuntu-1410/
[14:31] <k1l_> hicoleriv1: xterm  is known to work with images
[14:31] <k1l_> sallu: do you want to upgrade every 6 months?
[14:32] <hicoleriv1> k1l_: Do I have to configure xterm to make it work ?
[14:32] <k1l_> hicoleriv1: dont know. should work form the standard.
[14:32] <sallu_> k1l_, ubuntu 15.10 end date is July 2016
[14:33] <OerHeks> !java | ovrflw0x  yes, it is one of the methods in the official wiki
[14:33] <CtrlC> I set grub timeout to 0. but I want to see the menu each time I want manually. holding c while booting brings up the grub CLI but I can't bring up the menu. I tried holding both shifts and esc and spa…
[14:33] <k1l_> hicoleriv1: you need to come up with specific error messages.
[14:33] <CtrlC> …ce. none worked.
[14:33] <CtrlC> also Ctrl and alt didn't work.
[14:34] <hicoleriv1> k1l: when I try to use fbi, it shows this: ioctl VT_GETSTATE: Inappropriate ioctl for device (not a linux console?
[14:34] <CtrlC> And space brings up windows boot manager!
[14:34] <k1l_> hicoleriv1: thats on a desktop, right?
[14:34] <hicoleriv1> k1l_:yes.
[14:34] <k1l_> hicoleriv1: use xterm then
[14:35] <k1l_> sallu: on non-LTS you need to upgrade every 6 months after you waited 9 months at the first upgrade. so if you dont want to do that just stay on LTS
[14:36] <hicoleriv1> k1l_: okay, for some reason, w3m works now. But its the same thing with fbi.
[14:36] <hicoleriv1> k1l_:I was already using xterm btw.
[14:36] <CtrlC> Anyone? Shift should work but it doesn't.
[14:40] <hicoleriv1> k1l_: I tried using urxvt 256 color, It worked.
[14:52] <jjlx> Hi. I would like to change my cursor to black. I'm tried to change it using the unity tweak tool, but it doesn't change. It doesn't change even after restarting. What can I do?
[14:54] <espnoob> do i need to set permissions for a mounted hardddrive in ext4 format?
[15:00] <jjlx> How can I change my cursor to DMZ-Black? It's not working when set in unity tweak tool.
[15:05] <cp6> Hey, why is my /usr directory keeps filling up, i have fresh install of ubuntu (backbox actually) and after first update/upgrade /usr is full and i cant pull new updateds after few days
[15:06] <cp6> I didnt have this problem before on the same machine, same OS but older version
[15:06] <cfhowlett> cp6, best to ask backbox why.  BB is absolutely not supported here.

[15:07] <cp6> Oh ok, didnt know that

[15:14] <bekks> ovrflw0x: Yes. And why do you want tot remove it?
[15:14] <ovrflw0x> what's the reason for it being there 2 times?
[15:15] <bekks> ovrflw0x: One entry is for manual choice, one for automatic.
[15:17] <ovrflw0x> bekks, how do i remove oracle-jdk? i installed via webupd8 ppa?
[15:17] <bekks> ovrflw0x: Uninstall it using apt or apt-get -- the same way as you installed it.
[15:18] <ovrflw0x> bekks, i used oracle installer
[15:18] <bekks> ovrflw0x: There is no "Oracle Installer" on Ubuntu.
[15:18] <tsutomu> i would like to install oracle too
[15:18] <bekks> ovrflw0x: Uninstall the packages you want to remove by using the Ubuntu package management system.
[15:18] <bekks> tsutomu: Oracle is a company.
[15:18] <tsutomu> where I can find it
[15:19] <bekks> tsutomu: www.oracle.com
[15:19] <tsutomu> ok
[15:23] <tsutomu> where are you going like that
[15:24] <tsutomu> hey
[15:25] <tsutomu> is backbox... is like ubuntu
[15:25] <froike> hi, how can i make that ubuntu stop using local dns server when  i use dig command?
[15:26] <cfhowlett> !backbox | tsutomu,
[15:26] <froike> there is some service i need to stop maybe?
[15:26] <cfhowlett> !dns | froike
[15:26] <froike> thanks.
[15:27] <cfhowlett> froike, happy2help!
[15:27] <SchrodingersScat> doesn't the local dns have to request dns from up the chain anyway?  Also thought you could tell dig to use a specific server.
[15:28] <dfg810> hi, i have an ubuntu config file which has these two lines below but I get a  "syntax error in expression (error token is 366/2)
[15:28] <dfg810> one=${locs[0]}
[15:28] <dfg810> echo $(($one/2))
[15:29] <dfg810> can't see whats wrong ??
[15:29] <SchrodingersScat> dfg810: right, 366/2 isn't a command.
[15:29] <dfg810> but that's an arithmetic expression it says?
[15:29] <bekks> dfg810: And we have to guess which config file it is?
[15:30] <dfg810> its just something simple I had to come up with, sort of ubuntu related so I could ask here while everyone else is asleep:)
[15:30] <SchrodingersScat> dfg810: could use bc, if that fits your use case, echo "${one}/2" | bc
[15:30] <cfhowlett> "sort of" ubuntu related is not the topic of this channel
[15:30] <dfg810> cheers!
[15:30] <fountainhead> hi everyone. has Ubuntu for the phone come out yet?
[15:31] <cfhowlett> !touch | fountainhead
[15:31] <SchrodingersScat> dfg810: bash's 'let' can also do this, let num=366/2 ; echo $num
[15:33] <ray____> hi very new toubuntu...installed ubuntu 14.04 with lvm....now gparted tells me the lvm partition is full...700gb???

[15:34] <nolsen> I am not sure what should I choose for my AMD APU, flgrx, flgrx-updates, or using X.org X server...
[15:36] <BluesKaj> nolsen, well, you do mneed a driver whether you use Xorg or not
[15:37] <nolsen> But is either one better?
[15:39] <tsutomu> i want to install sublime text on backbox
[15:39] <tsutomu> help\
[15:39] <cfhowlett> tsutomu, no.  backbox is not supported here.  stop asking us.

[16:05] <nox_42> I am trying to install ubuntu on a hard drive that has two partitions. During the install process, I can't select the partition I want to install ubuntu on. I can see the hard drive just not the two different partitions. Any thoughts?

[16:06] <nox_42> SchrodingersScat, was that for me?

[16:06] <edd> hi all, I am trying to mount a external Macosx hdd ..getting this error --> http://pastie.org/10611309
[16:06] <edd> can someone help please?
[16:07] <SchrodingersScat> nox_42: nope, it was directed at the person. Are you partitions a proper filesystem like ext4 for example?
[16:07] <edd> I need to access some important files from my macintosh drive
[16:07] <edd> my macbook crashed, so I have switched now completely to using Ubuntu
[16:07] <nox_42> Yeah, ext3.
[16:07] <nox_42> And the disk is gpt
[16:08] <edd> can someone help?
[16:08] <TJ-> nox_42: which Ubuntu release are you trying to install, and is the install media for Desktop, Server, or something else?
[16:09] <nox_42> One partition is ntfs and the other is ext3. It's the desktop version of 14.04.
[16:11] <nox_42> In the installer, I can select the option to go to the advanced partition screen. At that time I can see the individual partitions.
[16:11] <TJ-> nox_42: If you're using the 'Try Ubuntu' option you'll be able to open a terminal, if so, can you do "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999"
[16:11] <ovrflw0x> how to install netbeans 8.1 on ubuntu 15.10
[16:11] <TJ-> nox_42: Oh, well that is what we'd expect.
[16:11] <OerHeks> edd, mount it readonly, as you need disabling journaling for read/write > mount -t hfsplus /dev/sdXY /path/to/mountpoint
[16:12] <nitish> Is there any option to change color of folder?
[16:12] <nox_42> Ok, so if I select the partition and click install, it won't erase the entire disk. It will just install on that one selected partition?
[16:12] <zetheroo> Seems like the resolving of IP's and hostnames over the VPN connection drops in and out ....
[16:13] <zetheroo> anyone any good with VPN issues?
[16:16] <TJ-> nox_42: It's a long time since I used the 14.04 Ubiquity installer like that so I can't recall it precisely. Generally, the advanced/manual steps let you define which partition is assigned to each file-system. Usually it wants 2 partitions (1 for the root FS, 1 for swap). You could delete the existing ext3 partition and create 2 in its place to allow that.
[16:17] <TJ-> zetheroo: resolving names would be a dnsmasq responsibility; but if IP addresses on the VPN link sometimes don't respond that sounds like a routing issue or connectivity issue
[16:23] <hicoleri> I don't have my optimal resolution listed (1280x720) when I type in vbeinfo in the grub console. Hence, I can't get the resolution. What should I do?

[16:40] <R13ose> How do I allow people to listen and maybe watch the Skype call that I am doing within them being apart of this?
[16:40] <MrElendig> R13ose: ms customer support can tell you
[16:44] <neogineeeer> hi!
[16:44] <neogineeeer> hi!

[17:02] <Player_> hi, i'm running ubuntu 14.04.3 and i'm trying to extend the desktop between my two monitors.  monitor 1 works and displays fine, monitor 2 however only displays tty prompts exclusively.  i'm sure this is because i have the 2nd monitor plugged into my motherboard's integrated graphics, which works fine in windows
[17:03] <Player_> anyway to make that work here?  do i need to manually add the integrated video and monitor to the xorg.conf?
[17:13] <R13ose> MrElendig: The Skype support didn't help me at all.
[17:15] <Player_> anybody know how to set xorg to extend 2 displays on different display adapters..?
[17:15] <Player_> or if that's even possible...?
[17:16] <OerHeks> R13ose, there is a skype recorder http://www.webupd8.org/2014/03/automatically-record-skype-calls-linux-skype-call-recorder.html
[17:16] <TJ-> Player_: you'll need separate X sessions for each
[17:17] <Player_> TJ-, could you point me in the direction of configuring that?
[17:18] <TJ-> Player_: sorry, for "X Sessions" I meant "X Screens". "man xorg.conf" and see the "SCREEN SECTION". You'll also need DEVICE sections for each GPU.
[17:18] <Player_> TJ-, thanks
[17:22] <TJ-> Player_: possibly a bit Over-The-Top for you but here's mine: https://iam.tj/projects/misc/xorg.XPS-NVS420-6monitor.conf
[17:23] <Player_> TJ-, that might help, i have my 2nd monitor plugged into my motherboard's integrated graphics
[17:24] <Player_> been awhile since i've really used linux, forgot how not straightforward everything is
[17:24] <Player_> as in, not entirely sure what data to put in the xorg.conf for my display and adapter sections
[17:24] <TJ-> Player_: This is assuming the system isn't Optimus - both GPUs are discrete
[17:25] <Player_> TJ-, if by that you mean both independantly display stuff then yes
[17:25] <finetundra_____> Hey folks, anyone here know how I can use a NETGEAR MA101 wireless adapter?
[17:26] <TJ-> Player_: yes. Optimus is this hybrid power-saving technology where the low-power GPU does the easy stuff and the high-power takes over when there's more to do
[17:27] <Player_> TJ-, ye, 1 of them outputs to the other, which isn't the case here
[17:27] <R13ose> OerHeks: thanks but I am looking for a way to live stream this
[17:28] <motaka2> TJ-: Are you there?
[17:28] <motaka2> ioria: Are you there?
[17:28] <TJ-> motaka2: no, I'm here
[17:28] <motaka2> TJ-: :)
[17:28] <ioria> motaka2, me too... how are you doing ?
[17:29] <Player_> TJ-, would you mind helping me determine what the sections should be, and where?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/13713387/
[17:29] <motaka2> TJ-, ioria:  I am fine. but not with ubuntu. My live dvd ended to ????? dialog box, I burned another on USB flash and again ????? dialig box
[17:30] <ioria> motaka2, how did you do the usb ?
[17:31] <motaka2> I downloaded 14.0.3 i386 from the site and I burned it using a program ubuntu.com suggested to the usb flash
[17:32]  * OerHeks wonders if motaka2 has checked the iso with md5sum by now
[17:32] <BluesKaj> how many weeks has it been ?
[17:33] <ioria> motaka2, yep, if something goes wrong, the first thing to be is to check the iso... you can do it also from the live 2check disk integrity" ... or some
[17:33] <motaka2> ioria: should I do what OerHeks says considering both the live DVD i bought from the store and the usb drive I burned my slf from the site had this error?
[17:33] <ioria> *do
[17:34] <ioria> motaka2, boot the iso, and choose "check disk integrity"
[17:34] <motaka2> ioria: wait ...
[17:34] <ovrflw0x> netbeans is getting stuck at "Loading Modules" Why!?
[17:34] <ovrflw0x> it is not starting
[17:34] <ovrflw0x> ubuntu 15.10
[17:34] <OerHeks> and knowing you have an UEFI machine, maybe 32 bit is not the right solution
[17:35] <motaka2> ioria: from where I can check that ?
[17:35] <ioria> motaka2, from the main menu...
[17:35] <OerHeks> !md5sum
[17:36] <ioria> motaka2, you don't get it ?
[17:36] <ioria> motaka2, i mean, the 'main menu' ?
[17:37] <motaka2> ioria: I have set the PC to boot with usb and the menu does not show me check disk integrity"
[17:37] <ioria> motaka2, ok, try with md5sum
[17:37] <TJ-> Player_: you'll need to add another "Device" section for the other GPU, and add a "Screen" section that uses that device. Also, I'm not sure how well the nvidia driver will 'play' with the Intel driver in this scenario.
[17:38] <motaka2> ioria: could you please give me the link ?
[17:38] <TJ-> ioria: motaka2 isn't that a sign the ISO booted in UEFI mode - it comes to a GRUB menu, not the {iso,sys}linux ?
[17:39] <ioria> motaka2, OerHeks gave it to you ... but is md5sum file.iso
[17:39] <TJ-> ioria: motaka2 however, that would not make sense for the 14.04 i386 image since I'm pretty sure only the amd64 ISOs have UEFI boot options
[17:39] <aal> I've been tring to change my cursor theme in ubuntu 15.10 for hours. Haven't been able to do so yet. Can someone help me out, please?
[17:39] <OerHeks> TJ- +1
[17:39] <ioria> TJ- okey...
[17:40] <OerHeks> aal, did you try logout/login to let the theme take effect?
[17:40] <ioria> TJ- how do you know he booted with  uefi option ? sorry
[17:41] <TJ-> ioria: I don't, but if I recall correctly when the ISOs boot in EFI mode, they use GRUB, and the boot menu (if I recall correctly) doesn't offer a 'check image' option
[17:41] <aal> OerHeks: yes. I'm not sure if I'm doing the right things though.  I've saved the cursor theme to /usr/share/icons and then changed /usr/share/icons/defaul/index.theme to use the new cursor theme. Is this all that's required or am I missing something?
[17:42] <TJ-> ioria: but if this is i386 UEFI doesn't apply so far as I recall
[17:42] <motaka2> TJ ioria so I should detach the usb and attach it to my laptop and check md5?
[17:42] <ioria> TJ- ok.... motaka2   are you dual-booting ?
[17:42] <motaka2> ioria: What is dual boot?
[17:42] <aal> OerHeks: It gets changed in only in some places
[17:43] <SchrodingersScat> !dualboot
[17:43] <ioria> motaka2, ubuntu is the only os on your pc ?
[17:43] <ioria> os= operative system
[17:43] <k1l_> motaka2: dualboot means you have ubuntu and another OS on your system.
[17:43] <motaka2> ioria: no previously when booting I could see win too, but now I just see ubuntu options
[17:44] <ioria> motaka2, so you have windows on your machine ( let it go that now you're not seeing it)
[17:44] <motaka2> ioria: Yes
[17:45] <ioria> motaka2, and you can boot ubuntu ?
[17:45] <ioria> motaka2, not from the live usb... from your installation ?
[17:45] <motaka2> ioria: what do you mean ?
[17:45] <k1l_> motaka2: did you chose "use all disk" when installing ubuntu?
[17:45] <motaka2> k1l_: Yes I think so
[17:46] <ioria> motaka2, can you login in your ubuntu installation ?
[17:46] <OerHeks> maybe fastboot is still enabled in windows..
[17:46] <k1l_> motaka2: ok, so you are in your ubuntu on that laptop now?
[17:46] <motaka2> ioria: Have you forgotten ? I cant see the login page
[17:46] <ioria> motaka2, np, you can open a console
[17:46] <motaka2> k1l_: no, my laptop just has win
[17:47] <motaka2> ioria: if I use text  mode I can login
[17:47] <ioria> motaka2,   ctrl+alt+f1  or (f2)
[17:47] <ioria> motaka2,   login then
[17:47] <k1l_> motaka2: what? you just said you installed ubuntu on it?!?
[17:48] <motaka2> k1l_: no I tried to do that
[17:48] <TJ-> k1l_: no, the installer, in GUI mode, is showing ????? instead of text in some dialogs.
[17:48] <ioria> motaka2,   when you 'll be in, we'll ask for some commands
[17:48] <motaka2> ioria: ok then I will change the boot to harddisk from usb and I will eneter text mode
[17:48] <k1l_> ok, seems i am missing a lot of context here. better let ioria clear the situation
[17:48] <TJ-> motaka2: ooo! are you selecting Persian/Iranian language at start-up?
[17:48] <k1l_> TJ-: that might be because of his language settings.
[17:49] <ioria> ohhh
[17:49] <k1l_> TJ-: should use plain english on the first choice of language.
[17:49] <TJ-> k1l_: yeah... lets hear the answer :)
[17:49] <ioria> motaka2,  see k1l_  comment ^
[17:49] <motaka2> TJ-: no U dont
[17:50] <k1l_> but i still dont understand what he got installed now. because he is saying he got windows and ubuntu installed and then says he got only windows installed.
[17:50] <motaka2> TJ-: no I dont
[17:50] <TJ-> motaka2: You're using English as the installation language?
[17:50] <motaka2> TJ-: Yes
[17:50] <ioria> motaka2,  are you in ?
[17:50] <motaka2> ioria: not yet
[17:50] <TJ-> motaka2: OK, go back to ioria's steps.
[17:51] <todd_> I am wanting to create a simple bifold booklet and have tried to use libreoffice but I do not seem to be able to get it work corrrectly for the print, any suggestions???
[17:51] <TJ-> k1l_: I think the misunderstanding is that motaka2 is trying to install to the HDD to achieve a dual-boot, but this installer GUI issue is causing problems.
[17:51] <Exagone313> Hi, when a vulnerability is found on a later version of software that is used in an ubuntu package, is it fixed, and by who? Because if the main project fixed the vulnerability in a new version, what is the politic about this? Thanks for your help.
[17:52] <TJ-> motaka2: are you able to upload photographs to an image-sharing web-site? If so, if/when you hit one of these ???? dialogs can you capture a photo, upload and share it with us?
[17:52] <TJ-> !security | Exagone313
[17:52] <motaka2> ioria: It doesnt boot as before I dont see grub
[17:53] <Exagone313> TJ-: kidding?
[17:53] <Exagone313> ok happy helping
[17:53] <k1l_> Exagone313: the "old" version will be patched by the security team. see ubuntu.com/usn
[17:53] <ioria> motaka2,  wait a bit and see what happens
[17:53] <Exagone313> ok thanks
[17:53] <TJ-> Exagone313: oh, that link doesn't have what I expected
[17:53] <Exagone313> ok sorry for my reaction

[17:56] <kthuno> hey - need some helping with clearing out iptables from an amazon instance
[17:57] <motaka3> ioria: I was disconnected, should I  still wait ?
[17:57] <ioria> motaka2,  if it does not start at all, you need to re-do the live usb ...
[17:57] <motaka3> ioria: I changed the boot from usb to harddrive
[17:58] <kthuno> I have attached the volume to a different instance but I dont know what to do to remove iptables as it rejects all connections
[17:58] <ioria> motaka2,  still nothing ?
[17:58] <ioria> motaka2,  still nothing ?
[17:58] <TJ-> kthuno: isn't that an AWS issue?
[17:59] <motaka2> ioria: with boot on hard drive just a blinking page
[17:59] <tkeller> Mat I ask a kinda "newb" qustion
[17:59] <ioria> motaka2,  ok, do you have another pc ?
[17:59] <kthuno> TJ-: not really - as it was me installing iptables and configured it wrong
[17:59] <motaka2> ioria: my laptop
[18:00] <kthuno> TJ-: when I rebooted the server I was unable to login with ssh
[18:00] <ioria> motaka2,  with windows ?
[18:00] <motaka2> ioria: Yes
[18:00] <ioria> motaka2,  ok,  on it, download Lubuntu 15.10 go to www.pendrivelinux.com/ , plug your usb and do a new one
[18:01] <motaka2> ioria: :|
[18:01] <kthuno> TJ-: how do disable the iptables/ufw service from running at boot time - you know that?
[18:01] <TJ-> kthuno: but I thought AWS has a per-instance security policy which controls external access, before anything reaches the guest? use "iptables -nvL" and/or "ip6tables -nvL" to check the current netfilters rules
[18:01] <motaka2> TJ-: help!!!
[18:01] <ioria> motaka2,  Lubuntu is tiny, it'll take you few minutes
[18:02] <TJ-> ioria: be aware motaka2 has a slow and unreliable connection, and has downloaded images several times, always hitting this issue. I believe it's a system related issue.
[18:03] <OerHeks> still not tried to check the iso with md5sum, motaka2 ?
[18:03] <kthuno> TJ-: it does... but my mail server kept getting hammered by someone trying to login - AWS security group does not allow for reject policies - only allow
[18:03] <kthuno> TJ-: so I thought iptables could help... but I locked myself out instead
[18:03] <tkeller> I have a system sitting here with 2(two) identical Seagate 3TB drives.   Is there any point nessing with things to set that up as a RAID array?   ( iof 6TB) total capaxirty
[18:03] <ioria> motaka2,  if your usb is not working, and your system does not start ... how can we do something ?
[18:04] <TJ-> kthuno: so are you saying the problem instance file-system image isn't running its actually mounted on another running instance?
[18:04] <kthuno> TJ-: excactly
[18:04] <motaka2> ioria: the try ubuntu without installation works, does that help ?
[18:04] <TJ-> tkeller: I'd be more inclined to configure those as a RAID-1 mirror
[18:04] <kthuno> TJ-: So I have to remove iptables stuff manually
[18:04] <ioria> motaka2,  i'd say ... yes
[18:05] <ioria> motaka2,  start it
[18:05] <TJ-> kthuno: Ahhhh! sorry, your initial description didn't make that obvious to me :)
[18:05] <motaka2> ok, you want me to run that from usb or live dvd ?
[18:05] <TJ-> kthuno: how did you apply the rules that locked you out - using UFW exclusively?
[18:05] <ioria> motaka2,  it's the same,   the one that works .
[18:05] <kthuno> TJ-: actually using webmin :-/
[18:05] <motaka2> ioria: this time I will go for the DVD
[18:05] <tkeller> a rAID 10 -  mirror? for speed and reliabilirty
[18:06] <kthuno> TJ-: I created a DROP rule manually and the used webmin to apply and save
[18:06] <TJ-> tkeller: no, RAID-1 if there's 2 drives. RAID 1+0 if there's 4 drives
[18:06] <TJ-> kthuno: OK, so that means there's probably an entry in /etc/network/interfaces that is doing a post-up iptables-restore
[18:06] <ioria> TJ- right, very unreliable connection  ...
[18:07] <kthuno> TJ-: yup - can that be commented out?
[18:07] <TJ-> kthuno: Yes
[18:07] <tkeller> ah......thanks, TJ.   Bt the WAY THOSE AR ME REAL INITIALS, I went by TJ for about 13 years
[18:07] <johndoe__> Hi, I think I read about the possibility to know power consumption on desktop with new hardware (haswell+), mainly because they already internally compute it for settings like automatic power limits. However, I don't remember which too allows that (best would be to read a text file without needing root, I would like to add this in a conky). I know i7z can do it, but I think there are kernel tools to provide it now.
[18:07] <TJ-> kthuno: or you can simply go to the file it is 'restoring' and edit that so you have a rule in it allowing your IP to connect over SSH
[18:07] <kthuno> TJ-: cool... lemme try reattaching and see if that will work
[18:08] <motaka2> TJ-: When I put the dvd inside sometimes the dvd drives opens up suddenly, is that a bad sign ?
[18:08] <kthuno> TJ-: actually the content of the file is empty - I tried rebooting with that and that didnt make a difference
[18:09] <TJ-> kthuno: e.g. "-A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp -s A.B.C.D --dport 22 -j ACCEPT" (where A.B.C.D are you current local public IPv4 )
[18:10] <TJ-> kthuno: what is the default POLICY on the INPUT chain in that file? or is it totally empty?
[18:10] <TJ-> kthuno: a policy entry would be like ":INPUT DROP [0:0]"
[18:10] <kthuno> TJ-: its totally empty
[18:10] <ZAKhan> how do i add a directory to the path permanatly .. i have tried different ways but none works
[18:10] <TJ-> kthuno: OK, so something else is applying the rules then, if that file is empty
[18:11] <kthuno> TJ-: webmin perhaps?
[18:11] <TJ-> kthuno: are you able to pastebin the /etc/network/interfaces file of the problem instance?
[18:11] <k1l_> uh, webmin :(
[18:11] <kthuno> TJ-: sure... hang on
[18:11] <Yekalb> Hello, I'm having a slight networking issue between two interfaces, I have a webserver and traffic is coming in but not being sent back: http://imgur.com/a/JcRIW Any ideas?
[18:12] <TJ-> kthuno: no, as you said webmin, that's why I said to check the 'interfaces' file for the post-up iptables-restore ... line; that's how it (and other solutions) handle basic netfilters rules
[18:12] <k1l_> kthuno: you are using webmin? that is known to mess with config files and other stuff and making a system broken
[18:12] <TJ-> k1l_: that's SO not true, that factoid in ubottu has been plain wrong since at least 2007!
[18:12] <kthuno> TJ-: http://pastebin.com/51Trgj28
[18:12] <k1l_> TJ-: that is the reason it got kicked out of debian and ubuntu.
[18:13] <TJ-> k1l_: Yes, in 2005
[18:13] <motaka2> ioria: I can see the try without installation desktop
[18:13] <kthuno> k1l_: its been working fine until my newbie approach to iptables
[18:13] <ioria> motaka2,  ok, open a terminal
[18:13] <motaka2> ioria: It is opened
[18:14] <ioria> motaka2,  sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[18:14] <TJ-> kthuno: OK, you've got a "source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*.cfg" which may be reading additional files, although that ought not to be in the "iface lo" stanza, but on its own at the start of a line :)
[18:14] <jeffy_poo> hello room hopfully someone will have a good answer for me.  when i remove an application i just use sudo apt-get remove <appname> is there a way to fully remove the config files, dependencies, and leftovers of the application?
[18:14] <jeffy_poo> thanks
[18:15] <kthuno> TJ-: I have checked out all the reference to the *.cfg files, and none have references to iptables
[18:15] <Exagone313> jeffy_poo: apt-get purge package instead of remove, then apt-get autoremove
[18:15] <TJ-> kthuno: what files are in /etc/network/interfaces.d/ ? maybe one of those has an additional iptables-restore entry?
[18:15] <kthuno> TJ-: let me check again
[18:15] <motaka2> ioria: E: unable  to fetch some archieves
[18:15] <k1l_> jeffy_poo: apt-get purge package. that will remove all the stuff that was created on install.
[18:15] <johndoe__> jeffy_poo, --purge ?
[18:15] <TJ-> kthuno: OK, good. Then it must be the UFX service when it starts, not webmin's iptables entry
[18:15] <jeffy_poo> thank you i will try that
[18:15] <Yekalb> Hello, I'm having a slight networking issue between two interfaces, I have a webserver and traffic is coming in on eth1 but not being sent back on eth0: http://imgur.com/a/JcRIW Any ideas?
[18:15] <TJ-> kthuno: which ubuntu release is it, 14.04 ?
[18:16] <kthuno> TJ-: only one file - eth0.cfg - and no refs to iptables
[18:16] <ioria> motaka2,  but do you have connectivity ?
[18:16] <kthuno> TJ-: yes
[18:16] <k1l_> jeffy_poo: but you still need to remove the stuff that the program did create on its first install. most times thats in the users home dir. in .programname
[18:16] <motaka2> ioria: How to check ?
[18:16] <ioria> motaka2,  ping www.google.com
[18:16] <TJ-> kthuno: OK, what's the mountpoint of the 'broken' instance file-system ?
[18:17] <Exagone313> ping an ip not a host
[18:17] <ioria> we need resolv...
[18:17] <motaka2> ioria: unknown host name
[18:17] <ioria> motaka2,  open firefox
[18:17] <kthuno> TJ-: mounted it on /mnt/temp
[18:17] <Exagone313> ping 8.8.8.8 for example
[18:17] <motaka2> ioria:
[18:17] <motaka2> ok
[18:18] <motaka2> ioria: now I have
[18:18] <TJ-> kthuno: OK, so "echo manual > /mnt/temp/etc/init/ufw.override"  will disable UFW from autostarting
[18:18] <ioria> motaka2,  what you have ?
[18:18] <motaka2> ioria: google page
[18:18] <motaka2> I installed pastebinit too
[18:18] <ioria> motaka2,  ok, sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[18:20] <motaka2> ioria: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13715109/
[18:20] <kthuno> TJ-: cool - let me try then
[18:21] <ub_ubuntu> at times 15.10 doesnt shut down properly
[18:21] <ZAKhan> can someone please tell me how to add a directory to the path .. system wide?
[18:22] <johndoe__> Where can I find the power consumption in a skylake desktop CPU? (which file)
[18:22] <ioria> motaka2,  and what you had before on that disk ?
[18:23] <motaka2> ioria: an ubuntu 12.04 and a windows. the windows was not working. I dont need anything.
[18:23] <Yekalb> Hello, I'm having a slight networking issue between two interfaces, I have a webserver and traffic is coming in on eth1 but not being sent back on eth0: http://imgur.com/a/JcRIW Any ideas?
[18:24] <nolsen> Will ubuntu run smoothly on a 1.80Ghz quad-core processor?
[18:24] <ioria> motaka2,  you have nothing that i understand on that disk....
[18:24] <TJ-> ioria: The Maxtor 6Y080M0 was transferred from another PC. That original PC had a nvidia fakeRAID controller and the disk has that metadata on it. This PC doesn't have such a controller, but was correctly booting via the fakeRAID view
[18:24] <motaka2> ioria: sorry I dont get you
[18:24] <kthuno> TJ-: same problem - all ports seem to DROP connections
[18:24] <TJ-> ioria: TLDR: ignore the parted errors
[18:24] <ioria> TJ- oh... ok
[18:25] <ioria> motaka2,  cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal     and paste here the resulting line
[18:26] <TJ-> ioria: the Linux install on the disk was originally 12.04. motaka2 attempted a release-upgrade to 14.04. That broke after 150~ packages were installed. We tried to figure out a way to either continue to 14.04 fulle, or back to 12.04, but neither were viable. We recommended a clean install instead.
[18:26] <TJ-> ioria: which is where it seems motaka2 is now stuck since the installer GUI is displaying strange characters
[18:26] <ioria> TJ- right
[18:26] <johndoe__> nolsen, Seems way enough to me.
[18:27] <TJ-> kthuno: is there no way to make a console connection to the instance in AWS?
[18:28] <motaka2> ioria: MemTotal 3101496
[18:28] <trumpler> Hi guys.  I had kept my personal files inside /root so that no one else can view . but when I try copying it to a pendrive I have permission erro. I can copy via terminal but not on guu.
[18:28] <EriC^^> trumpler: gksu nautilus /root , in the terminal
[18:28] <johndoe__> nolsen, The OS is not really what require processor power, this is the softwares you will run on it.
[18:28] <TJ-> motaka2: can you do "pastebinit <( cat /etc/issue; uname -a; cat /proc/cmdline )"
[18:29] <motaka2> TJ-:  is there a way for putty connection ?
[18:30] <kthuno> TJ-: no but I just noticed something else entirely... my instance changed ip-adress :-/
[18:30] <ioria> motaka2,  why do need putty ?
[18:30] <kthuno> TJ-: I am moron
[18:30] <TJ-> motaka2: from the Vista PC to this installer live boot you mean?
[18:30] <TJ-> kthuno: doh!
[18:30] <motaka2> TJ-: Yes
[18:31] <kthuno> TJ-: yeah doh! - never thought of this... but I guess the instance is dhcp and when I did a stop/start it might have changed ip
[18:31] <TJ-> ioria: when the problems happened previously we configured the Windows Vista PC to use PuTTY so that motaka2 had easier terminal control if the target was being rebooted repeatedly
[18:31] <kthuno> TJ-: sorry for the mess! I have a running SSH session now
[18:32] <TJ-> kthuno: that'll teach you to check the obvious first :D
[18:32] <ioria> motaka2,  cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep model
[18:32] <jtdesigns01> hey guys, would it be possible for me to forward ports 2300-2400 *through* my DMZed ubuntu server to another machine on my network?
[18:32] <kthuno> TJ-: thanks for helping out... now I just need to familiarize myself with iptables :-)
[18:32] <kthuno> TJ-: and also checking the obvious first :-)
[18:32] <kthuno> TJ-: thanks again!
[18:33] <motaka2> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13715600
[18:33] <TJ-> jtdesigns01: yes, using masquerading or forwarding
[18:33] <zykotick9> ioria: cat abuse ;)  "grep model /proc/cpuinfo"
[18:33] <ioria> zykotick9, i know...
[18:33] <jtdesigns01> how?
[18:34] <TJ-> motaka2: thanks, that helps us know exactly what is running. ioria processor = 'athlon'
[18:35] <motaka2> ioria: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13715660
[18:35] <ioria> TJ-  but which one ? a lot of athlon
[18:35] <TJ-> ioria: good point :)
[18:35] <ioria> motaka2,  for me, you need to blank out that disk.... sorry !
[18:36] <manornk> When I create cronjob, it just can't execute. Why is that?
[18:36] <manornk> I created basic notify-send and it can't work
[18:36] <ioria> motaka2,  and with your good hw, you'll need a bigger disk
[18:36] <TJ-> motaka2: if you switch to the GUI now will you see the corrupted GUI dialogs? If so, are you able to take a photo and upload it somewhere we can see it?
[18:36] <Paradisee> hello guys, my os doesn't detect the second monitor... http://paste.ubuntu.com/13715732/
[18:37] <jtdesigns01> TJ-: how would i forward it?
[18:39] <ioria> motaka2,  this last one , please    sudo dmidecode -t 2 | pastebinit
[18:40] <flux242> hi, ive switched to ubu 15.10 have some strange problem that my usb drives are mounted to slow. Here's the pastebin http://pastebin.com/EzqhCad2
[18:40] <flux242> it takes 11 seconds to mount a usb flash drive
[18:41] <flux242> is it normal with systemd or something isn't well configured (missing) on my side?
[18:43] <sallu> hi all
[18:43] <SchrodingersScat> hello
[18:43] <sallu> i use rufus for making bootable ubuntu
[18:44] <sallu> but this i see this while making bootable ubuntu in usb >> this image only uses Syslinux 6.03/20150813 but this application only includes the installation files for syslinux 6.03/2014-10-06.
[18:44] <OerHeks> flux242, on chrome os ?
[18:44] <TJ-> flux242: it looks like udisks takes its time to do the mount, or else doesn't get the notification of the device add immediately
[18:44] <sallu> As new versions of Syslinux are not compatible with one another, and it wouldn't be possible for rufus to incluse them all, two additional files must be download from the internet ('Idlinux.sys' and 'Idlinux.bss'):
[18:44] <motaka2> Sorry I got disconnected
[18:44] <ovrflw0x> netbeans is getting stuck at 'Loading modules" what to do?
[18:44] <ioria> motaka2,  this last one , please    sudo dmidecode -t 2 | pastebinit
[18:45] <flux242> OerHeks: no, that's ubuntu, i said that
[18:45] <sallu> ovrflw0x, why you use netbeans :p
[18:45] <k1l_> sallu: which OS is that?
[18:45] <motaka2> ioria: I might have not seen some of your messages
[18:45] <sallu> k1l_, its ubuntu 15.10
[18:45] <ioria> motaka2,  this last one , please    sudo dmidecode -t 2 | pastebinit
[18:45] <ovrflw0x> sallu, what to use then?
[18:45] <k1l_> sallu: no the OS you run rufus
[18:45] <sallu> k1l_, its windows 10 64 bit
[18:46] <ovrflw0x> sallu, wtf to use if not netbeans?
[18:46] <sallu> k1l_, i already made bootable usb of ubuntu 14 lts a week ago with rufus, it was successfull
[18:46] <motaka2> ioria: http://paste.ubuntu.com//13716031
[18:47] <ovrflw0x> sallu, ?
[18:47] <flux242> TJ-: well, i could take a look what's going on on the dbus
[18:47] <sallu> ovrflw0x, yeah the same . use eclipse , aptana studio
[18:47] <k1l_> sallu: yes, the 15.10 uses newer packages
[18:47] <johndoe__> sallu, if you goal is to have a usb stick running and rufus don't work well now, you may try "linux live usb creator"
[18:47] <sallu> k1l_, what do you prefer for making usb bootable
[18:47] <k1l_> sallu: "dd"
[18:48] <k1l_> but that is a linux terminal command
[18:48] <sallu> dd is linux command for extractions
[18:48] <k1l_> no, not for extraction.
[18:48] <sallu> here we use xcopy source and target
[18:48] <k1l_> see "man dd" for what it does
[18:48] <sallu> johndoe__, so you use linux live usb creator?
[18:49] <ioria> motaka2, what ubuntu iso have you downloaded ?
[18:49] <sallu> johndoe__, issue i am very much fond of rufus because it can make it bootable perfectly in uefi mode as well
[18:49] <johndoe__> sallu, I used it to make my last live usb of ubuntu 15.10: http://www.linuxliveusb.com/
[18:50] <k1l_> sallu: see if pendrivelinux works with 15.10
[18:50] <motaka2> ioria: the file name is ubuntu-14.04.3-desktop-i386.iso
[18:50] <johndoe__> sallu, it just says it has not yet parameters for 15.10 so it will use the ones from 15.04 and it works well for me.
[18:50] <flux242> are pm-utils now obsolete with the systemd? because I see that pm hooks aren't called at all when I'm switching from plugged to battery
[18:50] <TJ-> ioria: I've just booted the 14.04.3 i386 ISO in a VM guest, and it's asking me to for a Login - this is with a checked hash, so there could be something wrong with the image config
[18:51] <ioria> motaka2, ^ TJ-
[18:51] <sallu> johndoe__, in the last message you used word it, you mean live usb creator
[18:51] <motaka2> ioria, TJ-: I dont understand these things
[18:51] <johndoe__> sallu, It works also in UEFI (both modes in fact, it is sometimes required to play a bit with bios parameters to boot in the correct mode). UEFI mode is however a bit more root than the legacy one (That help check which mode you are in)
[18:51] <sallu> k1l_, yeah i made bootable usb drive from rufus, let see
[18:52] <ioria> motaka2, do you have an icon on Desktop "install Ubuntu" ?
[18:52] <motaka2> ioria: Yes
[18:52] <ioria> motaka2, so... try to install ...
[18:52] <sallu> johndoe__, the only option left is uefi here because windows 10 is already installed in the same pc with uefi native
[18:52] <sallu> not hybrid
[18:52] <motaka2> ioria: What would be the difference?
[18:53] <ioria> motaka2, idk
[18:53] <johndoe__> sallu, I had the same issue, also needed both UEFI
[18:53] <sallu> johndoe__, so you didn't used rufus ?
[18:53] <motaka2> ioria: should I check download updates while installing
[18:53] <motaka2> ?
[18:54] <johndoe__> sallu, "<sallu> johndoe__, in the last message you used word it, you mean live usb creator" I did not understood. "word"?
[18:54] <k1l_> sallu: try pendrivelinux.
[18:54] <k1l_> sallu: sorry, meant "unetbootin"
[18:54] <sallu> johndoe__, i installed ubuntu 14 lts last week along side windows 10 as dual boot in uefi mode
[18:54] <johndoe__> sallu, I did not knew about rufus's existence before today.
[18:54] <sallu> k1l_, yeah unetbootin is old , i know that
[18:55] <TJ-> ioria: motaka2 I managed to kill my GUI session accidentially, so will be AWOL (in a tty now) whilst I sort it out
[18:55] <sallu> johndoe__, lol, many users are fan of rufus everywhere
[18:55] <ioria> motaka2, no, well'do after
[18:55] <motaka2> TJ-: I dont even understand a single word of that
[18:56] <motaka2> ioria:  pressed on continu
[18:56] <ioria> TJ- ^_^
[18:56] <johndoe__> sallu, I'll have to check it so ;)
[18:56] <ioria> motaka2, yep
[18:56] <sallu> johndoe__, ubuntu 14.0..LTS installed but i get only windows prebooted when i switch on pc, i can run ubuntu by pressing f9 and then choose ubuntu from there
[18:56] <motaka2> ioria: should check earase disk and install ubuntu ?
[18:56] <ioria> motaka2, yes
[18:57] <motaka2> ioria: I clicked install now
[18:57] <ioria> motaka2, ok
[18:57] <sallu> johndoe__, i got solution that i have to manually give the boot path of ubuntu in BIOS option of  "Customized boot" feature.. that will do the job
[18:57] <johndoe__> sallu, so grub did not install the way you wanted?
[18:57] <motaka2> ioria: And I see that ????? dialog. do you want me to upload that ?
[18:57] <ioria> motaka2, yes
[18:57] <sallu> johndoe__, no , grub didn't do as i wanted
[18:57] <k1l_> ioria: iirc he didnt want to erase the windwos
[18:57] <ioria> k1l_, i think he has no windows
[18:58] <k1l_> ioria: thats what i was confused about, too. but he didnt give a straight answer to that
[18:58] <ioria> k1l_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13715109/
[18:58] <sallu> johndoe__, may be because HP hard coded the boot path to something different for their newer pcs, i no longer wonder why these companies don't follow casually the criteria
[18:58] <ioria> k1l_, right
[18:59] <sallu> johndoe__, so you ready to experience with me this newer method of installing ubuntu 15.10
[18:59] <johndoe__> sallu, For my last install I have distinct hard drives for the OS, So I installed Windows with it's loader on one, changed the bios boot option and install Ubuntu in the second paying attention to install grub where I needed it.
[18:59] <sallu> johndoe__, i am about to install ubuntu 15.10 in few minutes lolx
[19:00] <sallu> johndoe__, you used uefi native ?
[19:00] <motaka2> ioria: Waiting to upload
[19:00] <ioria> motaka2, ok
[19:00] <johndoe__> sallu, I guess
[19:00] <k1l_> ioria: ah yes, from last weeks i recall that it was a hell of a mess anyways
[19:00] <ioria> k1l_,  é_é
[19:01] <sallu> johndoe__, when i bought Hp probook 450 g2 laptop, i formatted the whole hardisk with new partition table GPT .. and then made 3 partitions for windows and 3 for linux, first i installed windows 10 in uefi
[19:03] <motaka2> ioria: still waiting ...
[19:03] <ioria> motaka2, btw,  if you can select 'try ubuntu' it means  that you get the Main Menu... so you can check the Disk Integrity....
[19:03] <sallu> johndoe__, and then i installed ubuntu , i always use rufus , in rufus i clearly have option for gpt and all that
[19:03] <sallu> johndoe__, in uefi usb is always deteced in fat32 ... thats the criteria i know
[19:04] <motaka2> ioria: how can Icheck it's integrity ?
[19:04] <jak2000> hi
[19:04] <TJ-> motaka2: do you get that ???? dialog when choosing "Try Ubuntu without installing" ?
[19:04] <sallu> johndoe__, so i am ready to reboot and install ubuntu ......be ready. i will be log on to hex chat from ubuntu in 10 minutes i guess
[19:04] <jak2000> bash question: http://pastie.org/10611810   <--- only generate 1 file (in dbs.txt i have 6 lines with valid Dbnames) the file generated(with last db is: "2015_12_05_13_57_32"  i want: db1_2015_12_05_13_57_32  and db2_2015_12_05_13_57_32 and so on...  wich is wrong in my script?
[19:04] <ioria> motaka2, as i said, from the Main menu ... right after it boots
[19:04] <motaka2> TJ-: no, I get that when trying to install ubuntu
[19:05] <ioria> TJ-  he's uploading the screen
[19:06] <TJ-> motaka2: OK, I'm trying to reproduce the issue here. So, from boot do you press any key when the small keyboard icon is displayed at the bottom-center of the monitor?
[19:07] <motaka2> TJ-: Yeah
[19:07] <TJ-> motaka2: so you then select a language? Is that English?
[19:07] <motaka2> TJ-: Yes
[19:08] <ioria> motaka2, the installation is in progress ?
[19:08] <jak2000> TJ- any advice?
[19:08] <TJ-> motaka2: OK, so then you get a text menu with 5 entries, and a series of Fx hot-key tips along the bottom of the monitor
[19:09] <motaka2> ioria, TJ-: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tliqlibtlu72n22/IMG_20151205_223000.jpg?dl=0
[19:09] <motaka2> TJ-: Yes
[19:09] <motaka2> ioria: Yes
[19:09] <ioria> motaka2, good, go ahead
[19:10] <TJ-> motaka2: just as a note for you. That's the menu where you can check the image using the "Check disc for defects" option
[19:10] <k1l_> motaka2: seems like it cant handle your location settings for iran. (maybe trying to display in local language there and missing the compatibility)
[19:10] <motaka2> TJ-: ok lemme restart so I can get rid of the try ubuntu without install desktop
[19:10] <ioria> motaka2, no,...
[19:11] <motaka2> ioria: so what should I do ?
[19:11] <ioria> motaka2, do as you wish... but wait and see....
[19:11] <TJ-> motaka2: no, that display you have is trying to use the Persian character set due to it detecting your locale, but it seems the ISO doesn't contain the correct files for that
[19:12] <motaka2> :( i dont get you
[19:12] <motaka2> TJ-: both the live DVD and USB have the same proble? while I bought the live DVD
[19:13] <ioria> motaka2, maybe is something you can fix later..
[19:13] <motaka2> ioria: I am going crazy
[19:13] <ioria> ^_^
[19:13] <TJ-> motaka2: Yes, I'd expect that if the ISO images don't have the language support. I'm trying to reproduce that here, now. I'd suggest you click OK then change your location to the United Kingdom for now, then change it back to Iran once the system is installed and booted.
[19:13] <motaka2> ioria: I ran check for disk defects
[19:14] <ioria> motaka2, as you like
[19:14] <motaka2> TJ-: changing the location doesnt work as soon as I press ok on ??????? i return back to the previous page
[19:16] <TJ-> motaka2: really?! OK, then what you need to do I think is start the installer in the "Try Ubuntu ..." mode so you can 'fake' the location before the installer starts. The system is guessing Iran from either the hardware clock setting, or by querying the network. It might actually work if you leave the network disconnected until after that step :)
[19:17] <motaka2> ioria: Check finished no errors found
[19:17] <ioria> motaka2, good
[19:17] <motaka2> TJ-: It gave me the same error with network disconnected
[19:18] <ioria> motaka2, that's weird
[19:19] <ioria> motaka2, how can it know where you are ?
[19:19] <ioria> motaka2, keyboard settind maybe ?
[19:19] <TJ-> motaka2: OK, so it is guessing the location from the timezone or local time
[19:19] <ioria> nope
[19:20] <TJ-> ioria: it's an intriguing question
[19:20] <ioria> TJ- call MI6
[19:20] <motaka2> TJ-, ioria: should I now go to try ubuntu without installation again ?
[19:20] <TJ-> no such organisation :) It's the Secret Service... and my guess is they won't tell :p
[19:21] <ioria> motaka2, yep, why not ?
[19:21] <motaka2> ioria: ok
[19:21] <ioria> TJ-  i'll check that.... :)
[19:21] <TJ-> ioria: I've got a UK keyboard, but (after dismissing the splash screen) I see the "Install" mode running "Generating locales  .. en_US.UTF-8"
[19:22] <ioria> TJ-  it's default, i think
[19:23] <TJ-> motaka2: what's your Iranian 2-letter language code? I can try it in the VM
[19:23] <motaka2> TJ-: I think it is FA
[19:24] <TJ-> motaka2: that's the one... Farsi!
[19:24] <motaka2> TJ-: Yupe
[19:25] <ioria> motaka2, install all in en_US , including Zone .. (except the keyboard)  we'll change that later
[19:26] <motaka2> TJ-, ioria: I dont see the desktop but just a cursor,
[19:27] <motaka2> ioria: it doesnt ask me
[19:27] <ioria> motaka2, it was working before ....
[19:27] <motaka2> ioria: Yes
[19:27] <ioria> motaka2, i told you to not stop... :þ
[19:28] <motaka2> ioria: :)
[19:28] <ioria> motaka2, you need to reboot
[19:28] <ioria> motaka2, wait a bit, maybe
[19:28] <TJ-> ioria: that's correct; it doesn't ask, aside from the language. And I can't find a persion keyboard package, only the language (translation) pack
[19:28] <motaka2> ioria: I reboted, but tried install ubuntu this time
[19:29] <ioria> TJ- no persian keyboard package ?
[19:29] <ioria> motaka2, 'try without install'
[19:30] <motaka2> ioria: ok
[19:30] <motaka2> I reboot
[19:32] <motaka2> TJ-, ioria: I disconnected the internet and in Where are you page it shows me newyourk and I have not selected anything other than english anywhere and again I see ?????? dialog box
[19:32] <ioria> motaka2, keyboard ? how did you set it ?
[19:33] <motaka2> ioria: english
[19:33] <ioria> motaka2, ok, go ahead
[19:33] <motaka2> ioria: to where?
[19:33] <ioria> motaka2, install
[19:35] <motaka2> ioria: I cant it return back to the previous oage
[19:35] <motaka2> ioria: dont you read what I am typing
[19:35] <ioria> motaka2, which page ?
[19:35] <akik> it's strange that the ubuntu install asks for the keyboard during install but it sets the locale according to those settings too. i prefer en_US and i get fi_FI
[19:35] <motaka2> ioria: the page I sent you the image
[19:36] <MonkeyDust> akik  yes, i had that too, had to set it manually after install
[19:36] <ioria> motaka2, click ok ?
[19:36] <motaka2> ioria: by the time I click ok I get one step back to earse disk and install ubuntu and then this happens like a loop
[19:36] <Anthaas> Hi guys, I downloaded php7, ran make and make install on it.
[19:37] <Anthaas> I have deleted the original folder / download like a plum, how can I remove php7 from my system completely?
[19:37] <ioria> motaka2, you said before that the installation was in progress.. until you stopped
[19:37] <motaka2> ioria: no, maybe I had misunderstood
[19:38] <ioria> motaka2, so you're stuck at that step ?
[19:38] <akik> Anthaas: you can find out the list of files if you recompile php7 and use checkinstall after that
[19:38] <motaka2> ioria: now I am on the desktop of use without install
[19:38] <motaka2> ioria: Yes I am
[19:39] <Anthaas> akik checkinstall?
[19:39] <akik> Anthaas: it is used to make different kinds of installation packages
[19:39] <motaka2> TJ-: What do you think ?
[19:40] <motaka2> Should I kill myself?
[19:40] <Anthaas> akik command not found
[19:40] <ioria> motaka2, open a console
[19:40] <ioria> motaka2, ctrl+alt+f1 or f2
[19:40] <motaka2> ioria: opened
[19:40] <ioria> motaka2, what you see
[19:40] <ioria> ?
[19:41] <akik> !info checkinstall
[19:41] <motaka2> ioria: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$
[19:41] <akik> Anthaas: there seems to be a package for it
[19:42] <ioria> motaka2, i never had that kind of ????? message ....
[19:42] <motaka2> ioria: I know
[19:42] <TJ-> motaka2: I'm still trying to reproduce it in a virtual machine. Only just found and installed in the correct location a keymap file for FA layout. Which makes me ask: what keyboard layout does the keyboard on that PC have? Is it Persian/FA or English ?
[19:42] <user1> k
[19:43] <ioria> TJ-  he selected English Keyboard
[19:43] <akik> Anthaas: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall
[19:45] <motaka2> ioria, TJ-: http://askubuntu.com/questions/455511/dual-boot-ubuntu-14-04-and-windows-7-on-fakeraid-installation-error-question-m
[19:46] <ioria> motaka2, you erased your disk ...
[19:46] <motaka2> TJ-: I dont get to keyboard page at all
[19:46] <motaka2> ioria: So ?
[19:47] <TJ-> motaka2: right, you just get the Language question don't you?
[19:47] <motaka2> TJ-: I get to time zone
[19:47] <TJ-> motaka2: what is the physical keyboard type connected to that PC though, is it English US or Persian ?
[19:48] <motaka2> TJ-: I dont know, I could type both english and persian with it
[19:48] <ioria> motaka2, did you do something in your bios ?
[19:48] <TJ-> motaka2: the reason I ask is that the keyboards can sometimes be autodetected by querying them, and that is where the location info is likely being deduced from.
[19:48] <TJ-> motaka2: however, your Ask Ubuntu discovery is very interesting there
[19:50] <TJ-> motaka2: I can create a similar config here and test that, but I have to do to dinner first.
[19:50] <motaka2> ioria: Yes, to make it boot from USB, and then I returned back things, should I get back to bios ?
[19:50] <motaka2> TJ-: Ok thanks
[19:50] <ioria> motaka2, anything else ? raid option and stuff ?
[19:51] <motaka2> ioria: do you want me to reset configs of bios to default ?
[19:51] <TJ-> motaka2: as ioria has said, if you don't need to save anything off that /dev/sda, then blank the entire device to remove the fakeRAID metadata. It is at the end of the disk, I think we found it used 1 or 2 sectors at the end of the raw /dev/sda so with 'dd' that can be wiped out
[19:52] <ioria> motaka2, reboot, try ubuntu without install, open a terminal and sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[19:52] <motaka2> TJ-: how can I blank out the disk ?
[19:53] <flanker65> ciai
[19:53] <motaka2> ioria: wait ...
[19:54] <flanker65> ciao
[19:57] <jtdesigns01> hey guys, how would i forward ports 2300-2400 *through* my DMZed ubuntu server to another machine on my network?
[19:58] <MonkeyDust> jtdesigns01  ##networking or #ubuntu-server
[19:58] <jtdesigns01> MonkeyDust: ok thanks
[20:04] <Thierry05> hi
[20:04] <Hoca> hi
[20:05] <balazs> Has anyone seen a weirdness where the console mode do not work with a certain video card ? I don't see anything during boot (not even the BIOS stuff), nor do I see the console when I hit CTRL-Alt-F1, but X works perfectly.
[20:05] <balazs> Usually it's the other way around...
[20:05] <remCon> Hello Ubuntu.  Is there a difference between Remote Desktop and Remote Login in Ubuntu?  Remote Login is what I want but can't find any info about it
[20:06] <MonkeyDust> remCon  remote login can be ssh, via terminal, no GUI
[20:07] <remCon> I have ssh working.  was hoping there was a way to gui connect thru it
[20:07] <Thierry05> I've been looking all over the forums to try find a solution to my problem, but simply I have this usb 'microphone' device and I dont know how to set it to default so when I record something it will sue that instead
[20:07] <vithrakh> balazs: Once, in 1998. :)
[20:07] <motaka2> ioria, TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13718853
[20:07] <MonkeyDust> remCon  what's the difference between GUI and desktop, to you?
[20:07] <balazs> vithrakh: what was the reason back then ? :)
[20:07] <ioria> motaka2, didn't you erase the disk ?
[20:08] <remCon> I dont' want to be visible to someone using the client computer
[20:08] <ioria> motaka2, it's like before
[20:08] <remCon> sorry, server
[20:08] <vithrakh> balazs: It was partially dislodged, and would only display black color or random ASCII characters for anything in text mode, but once the resolution was increased it rendered stuff fine. :P
[20:08] <ioria> motaka2, that's not possible, as far as i know
[20:09] <TJ-> motaka2: did you say earlier that the disk has Windows on it?
[20:09] <Thierry05> I just tried to go on the sound settings but couldn't see a way to set a default input device
[20:09] <motaka2> TJ-: Yes
[20:09] <ioria> motaka2, open gparted or install it
[20:09] <motaka2> TJ-, ioria: How can I blank out the disk ?
[20:10] <grnadaUsa> I got a problem with running "apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade and then a reboot" when I do this in 14.04 LTS it breaks my network settings and I have to plug my ethernet cord into my second nic to get back online... The only problem is i got about 100 of these servers that I need to update and I need them to survive the update without having to keep fixing the settings. Apparently before the update it switches network
[20:10] <grnadaUsa> settings from em1 to em2 and em2 to em1. any ideas?
[20:10] <ioria> motaka2, open gparted or install it
[20:10] <TJ-> motaka2: hang on, something isn't making sense here
[20:10] <motaka2> ioria: how to open that ?
[20:10] <ioria> motaka2, supeKey (windows key) an type gparted
[20:11] <TJ-> motaka2: From what I remember of last week's work on this, the only OS on the disk was Ubuntu 12.04. Since then, have you wiped that original Ubuntu 12.04 with a fresh Windows installation?
[20:12] <motaka2> ioria: the desktop is gone
[20:12] <motaka2> TJ-: no
[20:12] <ioria> motaka2, in terminal type gparted
[20:13] <ioria> motaka2, in terminal type sudo gparted
[20:13] <motaka2> ioria: I just see black page now
[20:14] <ioria> motaka2, are you serious ?
[20:14] <motaka2> ioria: ofcourse
[20:14] <motaka2> ioria: I rebooted
[20:15] <TJ-> motaka2: ioria isn't the current shell in a separate VT tty, not a GUI terminal ?
[20:15] <ioria> TJ-  he should be in gui, now
[20:16] <motaka2> I will kill myself, my laptop is so slow
[20:16] <TJ-> motaka2: earlier today you said there is/was Windows on this PC
[20:16] <motaka2> TJ-: Yes there was
[20:17] <TJ-> motaka2: when 'was' that - when Ubuntu 12.04 was still booting correctly?
[20:17] <TJ-> motaka2: because right now there doesn't look to be any space for a Windows install unless its in /dev/sda1, which is where I thought the broken Ubuntu 12.04/14.04 install is
[20:17] <motaka2> TJ-: yes
[20:18] <TJ-> motaka2: Has the GUI painted the gparted display yet?
[20:18] <motaka2> TJ-: cause once I tried something else when installing. maybe that has earased everythoing
[20:18] <motaka2> TJ-: booting ...
[20:19] <TJ-> motaka2: ahhhh! OK, I just want to be sure we're not going to wipe out a Windows installation you expect to be there
[20:19] <TJ-> motaka2: I know, it can be slow, it is slow in the VM guest here too at times
[20:19] <motaka2> TJ-: I dont want that windows or anything elese on this hard drive
[20:19] <suprkain> is there another way to access files on a separate windows computer besides samba?
[20:19] <TJ-> motaka2: great. we can wipe the fakeRAID meta-data and the MBR and start fresh then
[20:20] <motaka2> TJ ioriaI see the window of sudo gparted
[20:20] <motaka2> you need a photo ?
[20:20] <TJ-> motaka2: you've started the ISO in the "Truy Ubuntu ...2 mode?
[20:20] <SchrodingersScat> suprkain: install a ubuntu vm and share the drive to the vm, install openssh-server/etc. on ubuntu vm
[20:20] <TJ-> motaka2: you've started the ISO in the "Try Ubuntu ...! mode?
[20:20] <motaka2> TJ-: I dont know that
[20:21] <ioria> motaka2, you have more tyhen 3G and a 64bit dual core cpu.... should be a bolt ...
[20:21] <TJ-> motaka2: are you running the installer from the DVD ?
[20:21] <motaka2> TJ-: Yes
[20:22] <TJ-> motaka2: that explains the slowness then
[20:23] <motaka2> so how to blank out ?
[20:23] <ioria> motaka2, what you see in gparted ?
[20:23] <motaka2> ioria: uploading
[20:24] <TJ-> motaka2: can you do "sudo parted /dev/sda unit s print | nc termbin.com 9999"  so we can get the sector numbers
[20:25] <Guest7830> Any one have any luck getting MintPPC running on a PowerPC Mac Powerbook G4?
[20:25] <MonkeyDust> Guest7830  mint and ppc are not supported here
[20:26] <k1l_> !mint | neuropol
[20:26] <neuropol> sonuds good, thanks.
[20:26] <grnadaUsa> I got a problem with running "apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade and then a reboot" when I do this in 14.04 LTS it breaks my network settings and I have to plug my ethernet cord into my second nic to get back online... The only problem is i got about 100 of these servers that I need to update and I need them to survive the update without having to keep fixing the settings. Apparently before the update it switches network
[20:26] <grnadaUsa> settings from em1 to em2 and em2 to em1. any ideas?
[20:27] <grnadaUsa> I even went as far as doing
[20:27] <grnadaUsa> export INTERFACE=em1
[20:27] <grnadaUsa> export MATCHADDR="ip addr show $INTERFACE | grep ether | awk '{print $2}'"
[20:27] <grnadaUsa>  /lib/udev/write_net_rules
[20:27] <grnadaUsa> which will write /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[20:28] <grnadaUsa> thinking that now the interface names are now persistent, i do the upgrade, and reboot but it doesnt come back up
[20:28] <grnadaUsa> when i swap the cable to the other nic, sure enough it comes back up
[20:29] <anew> i am trying to use xming on my windows to putty into 14.04 ubuntu but everytime is start a gui program i get an error
[20:30] <ccadserver> oi galera?
[20:30] <ioria> anew, display not set ?
[20:30] <anew> X11Forwarding yes this is set... what do you mean display not set ?
[20:30] <TJ-> grnadaUsa: are they using biosdevname then (em1 suggests it) ?
[20:31] <ioria> anew, sometimes you need to export the display ... which is the exact error ?
[20:31] <anew> Error: cannot open display: 127.0.0.1:10.0
[20:32] <ioria> anew, right
[20:32] <motaka2> ioria, TJ-: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ctxppdiagycmaww/IMG_20151205_235430.jpg?dl=0
[20:32] <ioria> anew, export DISPLAY=ip:0.0
[20:32] <anew> yeah i did that also
[20:32] <anew> ip = 127.0.0.1 ?
[20:32] <ioria> anew,no
[20:33] <ioria> anew, the ip ubuntu machine
[20:33] <anew> oh
[20:33] <anew> let me do that
[20:33] <TJ-> motaka2: OK, do "sudo apt-get install dmraid"
[20:33] <ioria> anew, or the host one... idr
[20:34] <motaka2> TJ-: done
[20:34] <TJ-> motaka2: once that's done, do "sudo dmraid --erase_metadata /dev/sda"
[20:34] <ioria> anew, i'd start it  with Xlauch , anyway
[20:35] <anew> Error: cannot open display: ip:0.0
[20:35] <motaka2> TJ-: option missing
[20:35] <TJ-> motaka2: hang on let me check on a 14.04 system
[20:35] <anew> ioria i used the ubuntu ip
[20:35] <motaka2> TJ-: ok
[20:36] <ioria> anew, try with the win ip machine
[20:36] <anew> my home ip ?
[20:36] <ioria> anew, try also ip:1.0
[20:36] <TJ-> motaka2: try "sudo dmraid -E /dev/sda"
[20:37] <motaka2> TJ-: same error
[20:37] <ioria> motaka2, why don't you just remove those partitions ?
[20:37] <anew> no.... i get cannot open display for everything
[20:38] <motaka2> ioria: All is in your hands if you say I will do that
[20:38] <TJ-> ioria: they don't matter; we need to remove the entire metadata then those will go
[20:38] <TJ-> motaka2: ok, we need to tell it the fakeraid name, not the raw device name
[20:38] <TJ-> motaka2: try "sudo dmraid -E /dev/mapper/nvidia_afeicaag"
[20:39] <motaka2> TJ-: the same
[20:40] <anew> anyone
[20:40] <anew> this is a brand new ubuntu install
[20:40] <bekks> anew: and you are doing what exactly?
[20:40] <TJ-> motaka2: it looks like dmraid may not have brought up that device, hang on.
[20:41] <grnadaUsa> TJ-, i think biosdevname is swapping em1 and em2, is there any way to keep em1's and em2's mac addresses persistent?
[20:41] <anew> bekks, i installed xming on my windows home machine, i start putty with xforwading enabled, i do the command export DISPLAY=ip:0, then firefox & and it says 'error cannot open display'
[20:41] <TJ-> motaka2: try disabling the array with "sudo dmraid -an"
[20:42] <bekks> anew: you do export DISPLAY=ip:0; firefox & where?
[20:42] <anew> on the ubuntu
[20:42] <bekks> And IP is which one?
[20:42] <anew> ip is the ubuntu ip ( i tried my home ip and 127.0.0.1 also)
[20:43] <bekks> anew: then why did you install xming? :)
[20:43] <motaka2> TJ-: done
[20:43] <anew> xming is on my home windows
[20:43] <bekks> anew: and how is that related to your issue?
[20:43] <anew> i dont know
[20:43] <anew> :S
[20:44] <TJ-> motaka2: OK, now do "ls /dev/mapper/" do you see the nvidia* device nodes now?
[20:44] <bekks> anew: where do you want the firefox window to be running?
[20:44] <anew> bekks,  on my home pc
[20:44] <anew> home pc = windows... ubuntu = remote
[20:44] <bekks> anew: then why are you using the IP of your ubuntu for the export command?
[20:44] <anew> eh dunno, i tried my home ip also that didnt work either...
[20:44] <motaka2> TJ-: constrol nvidea_afeciage nvidia_afeiciage2
[20:45] <anew> export DISPLAY=homeip:0
[20:45] <bekks> anew: "home ip" - how do you connect to the internet?
[20:45] <anew> with my modem ?
[20:45] <bekks> anew: so "homeip" is your public ISP IP?
[20:45] <anew> errr
[20:46] <anew> i guess? what should i be using there ?
[20:46] <auronandace> you'd need port forwarding set up from your router
[20:47] <anew> damn how the hell do i do that
[20:47] <bekks> anew: in the settings of your router.
[20:47] <anew> wont that be a security issue ?
[20:47] <bekks> anew: of course.
[20:48] <anew> so then i shouldnt do it ...
[20:48] <bekks> anew: correct.
[20:48] <anew> damn... so what the heck should i do
[20:48] <anew> how can i see the gui on my remote ubuntu
[20:48] <bekks> anew: Dont use firefox on your remote ubuntu.
[20:48] <anew> ...
[20:48] <anew> not an option
[20:48] <bekks> Indeed, a gui on a server is no option. What do you need it for?
[20:49] <anew> so all these tutorials with xming and putty i see online are port forwarding?
[20:49] <bekks> anew: No. But for your particular setup, you need port forwarding.
[20:50] <anew> damnit
[20:50] <anew> ok so before i refund what i bought... the only way to see a gui on this thing is to port forward
[20:50] <anew> and port forwarding is a security flaw
[20:50] <TJ-> motaka2: OK, it looks like that fakeRAID isn't being driven by the dmraid device, but possibly by the mdraid. There was a point where ubuntu switched over from 1 to the other for some of these fake-RAIDs but I forget when that was.
[20:50] <MonkeyDust> anew  if you manage to do it, put it online as a tutorial for others
[20:50] <bekks> anew: What do you need a gui for, on your server?
[20:50] <ioria> anew, ok... you need to check 'No Access Control' in XLaunch
[20:51] <motaka2> TJ-: so ?
[20:51] <anew> ioria no access control will allow me to not port forward
[20:51] <bekks> anew: No.
[20:51] <anew> ok
[20:51] <bekks> anew: What do you need a gui for, on your server?
[20:51] <anew> so time to return this and get a windows server
[20:52] <bekks> anew: Time to answer questions.
[20:52] <anew> bekks i need it to run javascript in a browser remotely
[20:52] <bekks> anew: Why cant you run it at home?
[20:52] <anew> because i need to run it remotely
[20:52] <bekks> Why?
[20:52] <ioria> anew, so, i set 1 in Display number , check No Access Control   and then export DISPLAY=winip:1.0
[20:52] <anew> does that matter?  i need to run it remotely
[20:52] <bekks> ioria: We've gone through all that already.
[20:53] <anew> ioria and that worked?
[20:53] <ioria> anew, yep
[20:53] <anew> wow ok let me try
[20:53] <ioria> bekks i didn't know ....
[20:53] <anew> ioria that worked without port forwarding?
[20:53] <TJ-> motaka2: OK, i'm 100% sure it should be dmraid, so lets try "sudo dmraid -E -r /dev/sda" to erase the metadata
[20:53] <ioria> anew, i don't use that....
[20:54] <anew> ioria where do you check 'no access control' in putty ?
[20:54] <auronandace> anew: if your router isn't set up to do port forwarding then how is your remote ubuntu server going to find your windows pc (hint: it won't)
[20:54] <ioria> anew, not in putty---- in XLaunch  ... is part of XMing
[20:55] <motaka2> TJ-: do you really want to erase nvidia .... ?
[20:56] <anew> no didnt work 'cannot open display'
[20:56] <TJ-> motaka2: YES!!!!!
[20:56] <TJ-> motaka2: Earlier, I was missing the "-r" option like an idiot
[20:57] <motaka2> TJ-: :) done
[20:57] <anew> ioria "set 1 in display number' where did u do that
[20:57] <anew> or do you mean in the comman line
[20:57] <auronandace> anew: if you want something that doesn't involve port forwarding then you could use teamviewer at both ends
[20:57] <ioria> anew, no, in XLaunch ... don't you have it ?
[20:57] <anew> yes i do
[20:57] <anew> ah i see here
[20:57] <anew> let me try again
[20:57] <TJ-> motaka2: OK, now let's force the kernel to re-read the disk: "echo 1 | sudo dd of=/sys/block/sda/device/rescan"
[20:58] <Wanderer34> I used to have this working on 14.04, how can i get it to even download/install on 15.10 ?  https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/brightness-controller/
[20:58] <Wanderer34> Please someone help because i cannot do without it
[20:58] <TJ-> motaka2: in theory now, the kernel should treat the disk like it was just connected, and no longer see the nvidia fake RAID device
[20:58] <anew> no
[20:58] <anew> cannot open display
[20:58] <anew> i will refund what i bought
[20:58] <anew> thanks
[20:59] <TJ-> motaka2: do "ls /dev/mapper" and see if those nvidia* nodes have now gone
[21:00] <motaka2> TJ-: done
[21:00] <motaka2> TJ-: no they are there
[21:01] <anew> so i dont understand what all these tutorials are doing online then
[21:01] <anew> if they arent using port forwarding what are they doing
[21:01] <TJ-> motaka2: that might be due to having gparted still running. If it is, close it.
[21:01] <motaka2> TJ-: It was closed
[21:02] <TJ-> motaka2: I'm trying to avoid recommending you reboot again since it takes so long
[21:02] <motaka2> TJ-: if you say I will do that
[21:03] <TJ-> motaka2: Let's make sure the fake raid has gone as far as dmraid is concerned, first, else we'll be wasting yet more time
[21:04] <motaka2> TJ-: ok
[21:04] <TJ-> motaka2: try "sudo dmraid -r /dev/sda | tee /dev/stderr | nc termbin.com 9999"
[21:05] <k1l_> is systemd now standard init on 14.04.3?
[21:05] <motaka2> TJ-: :(
[21:05] <TJ-> k1l_: no, as far as I recall we only have the logind and udevd from systemd in 14.04
[21:06] <k1l_> i thought the same. but a user telling me he did "nothing" and got systemd as init now.
[21:06] <k1l_> (on a new install)
[21:06] <TJ-> k1l_: I didn't see it when playing with the 14.04.3 i386 ISO
[21:07] <motaka2> TJ-: no raid disks and with names "/dev/sda
[21:07] <motaka2> http://termbin.com/jyrn
[21:07] <Flareboto> gib me food
[21:07] <Flareboto> daz guuuuuud
[21:07] <Flareboto> i'm the greatest
[21:07] <Flareboto> no
[21:07] <Flareboto> no
[21:07] <Flareboto> gib me results
[21:07] <Flareboto> i'm the greatest
[21:08] <TJ-> k1l_: according to the manifest, and an installed system, just systemd-services and systemd-shim
[21:09] <TJ-> motaka2: That is VERY GOOD news, it means the metadata has truly gone. So, now let's wipe the existing partition table too so when you reboot the installer sees an 'empty' (unallocated) disk
[21:09] <TJ-> motaka2: "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1"
[21:10] <motaka2> TJ-: done
[21:11] <TJ-> motaka2: also, now we seem to have identified why you got those weird dialogs, you might speed things up by rebooting and using that USB image of 14.04.3 instead of the DVD - worth a try at least
[21:11] <thierry> hi
[21:11] <TJ-> motaka2: you can reboot whenever you want, now, the disk is effectively blank as far as the metadata/partition table is concerned
[21:11] <truexfan81> ops don't panic and ban me lol i'm about to switch to my bot account to regain the nick, for some reason my bot failed to identify
[21:12] <motaka2> TJ-: and then I chose install ubuntu ?
[21:13] <TJ-> motaka2: I'd choose "Try Ubuntu..." simply because you have more control if things don't go as expected
[21:13] <TJ-> motaka2: then you can start the installer from the GUI's desktop
[21:13] <motaka2> TJ-: ok
[21:13] <thierry> hi, at the moment I've been looking around forums and I am not sure how to change the default sound input device, I really need this mainly so I can do some good studio recordings.
[21:13] <Jadzia> finally
[21:13] <TJ-> thierry: more than 1 sound device in the system?
[21:14] <thierry> yeah
[21:14] <thierry> what I mean is that its a usb sound input device
[21:15] <thierry> so it by default chooses the analogue input by default
[21:15] <TJ-> thierry: right; the usual solution is to change the device's ALSA sound device index in the kernel drivers, via /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
[21:16] <TJ-> thierry: oh, so not the device itself you want to change, but the input source?
[21:16] <thierry> I mean  that I'm trying to change the default device to this usb device so I can record with it
[21:17] <thierry> because it detects both devices but chooses the analogue input by default
[21:18] <thierry> i want the usb device to be the default for as long as its plugged in
[21:19] <thierry> (when I mean both devices I mean the internal mic/plugged in mic over the usb input device
[21:20] <TJ-> thierry: that sounds like something the application needs to do. The Pulseaudio control or 'mixer' can set those
[21:21] <Anima_Stella>    /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER Anima_Stella xsvjonrqwvjj
[21:21] <YamakasY> oh! since when is 5GB not enought anymore for / without /var/log and home ? :(
[21:21] <thierry> I have that mixer and tried that but it only shows the main devices
[21:21] <motaka2> TJ-: :) no error this time
[21:22] <thierry> doesnt show the usb device
[21:22] <thierry> the option for the usb device I mean
[21:22] <anew> i mean i dont understand all these tutorials i'm reading none mention port forwarding
[21:22] <thierry> on the input area it shows its there and working
[21:22] <anew> and they use xming and putty
[21:23] <k1l_> YamakasY: depends on what you install
[21:23] <thierry> wait a minute
[21:23] <thierry> I think I figured it out :/ you were right
[21:23] <thierry> I had to run my recording application, and manually switch to it using the mixer
[21:24] <thierry> I usually only do that for recording videos
[21:24] <motaka2> TJ-: :)
[21:24] <TJ-> motaka2: that is 1 VERY WEIRD error; I'll reproduce it here and figure out a fix
[21:24] <YamakasY> k1l_: only php and apache
[21:24] <motaka2> TJ-: What was the problem? I dont understand
[21:24] <TJ-> motaka2: I have to admire your perseverance, you've been challenged by everything!
[21:25] <motaka2> TJ-: You really know a lot
[21:25] <motaka2> TJ-: Thanks for absolutely great help
[21:25] <thierry> anyway thanks tj
[21:25] <Bashing-om> YamakasY: My system : " df -h >> /dev/sda1       4.7G  2.7G  1.8G  61% / " Workie great, last lomg time ( I do need to do a bit of housecleaning ) .
[21:25] <thierry> now I have another problem xD
[21:25] <TJ-> motaka2: nor do I as yet, I can only guess that whilst the installer was showing you the "Where are you" page it was, in the background, scanning the disk... had a problem understanding the disk layout, tried to tell you, but for some reason the dialog box messages are not there
[21:26] <YamakasY> Bashing-om: yeah it was here like that, dunno what's going on
[21:26] <YamakasY> Bashing-om: just a 14.04 install with apache/php or mysql only
[21:26] <motaka2> TJ-: Ah I was really disappointed
[21:26] <TJ-> motaka2: I'd have thrown the laptop out the window by now :D
[21:27] <YamakasY> Bashing-om: what could be added ?
[21:27] <thierry> my last problem is to do
[21:27] <thierry> whoops pressed enter before I finished xD
[21:27] <motaka2> TJ-: :D you did really a lot in last weeks for me. People were mostely frowning to me.
[21:27] <TJ-> YamakasY: is the system public-facing? could it be compromised and be used to store some files you're not aware of?
[21:27] <motaka2> TJ-: Thanks again
[21:28] <YamakasY> TJ-: heh than 200 system would have been, nope not that
[21:28] <TJ-> motaka2: you're welcome, I hope you become a bit of an expert in ubuntu yourself now :D
[21:28] <Bashing-om> YamakasY: Depends on how much disk space those apps need . you want to keep the usage under 90 % ( file fragmentation ) .
[21:28] <YamakasY> TJ-: I also see these are a little bit behind comparing to my other systems with kernels, they don't upgrade to newer ones too
[21:28] <thierry> I've used ubuntu for around 4/5 years now and I still cant get my head round some problems
[21:29] <k1l_> YamakasY: see program "dpigs" to see what takes the space
[21:29] <TJ-> YamakasY: running out of space due to not clearing out old kernel/initrd.img maybe?
[21:29] <YamakasY> Bashing-om: yes I know
[21:29] <TJ-> YamakasY: /var/cache contains lots of files for various programs; might be wort doing "sudo du -hs /var/cache" to check usage there
[21:30] <YamakasY> TJ-: nope, that's already fixed there was a puppet bug there, nah actually an apt one
[21:30] <TJ-> YamakasY: OK, well use 'du' to find out where all the space is being used
[21:31] <Bashing-om> YamakasY: My favorite to "see" what is going on ' df -h ; cd / ; sudo du -sx * | sort -n ' .
[21:31] <motaka2> TJ-: Yupe thanks to your help I intrested
[21:31] <thierry> my next problem sorta is to do with ubuntu, but could be to do with the software itself. simply, I open this program once, and it works, but if I close it, and open it back up, it doesnt open back up even if I made sure previous processes werent running
[21:31] <TJ-> YamakasY: I generally use "du -d 1 / | sort -n"
 YamakasY: see program "dpigs" to see what takes the space
[21:31] <motaka2> TJ-: It restarted and now I see a black page. should I get the DVD out of the tray ?
[21:32] <TJ-> motaka2: by restarted, you mean rebooted using the USB installer ?
[21:32] <YamakasY> k1l_: only kernels using space
[21:32] <k1l_> YamakasY: did you use it?
[21:32] <motaka2> TJ-: No I was wrong it was just sleeping
[21:32] <TJ-> motaka2: you should always remove the install media otherwise the motherboard might use it instead of the hard disk
[21:32] <YamakasY> k1l_: yap
[21:33] <YamakasY> running the specified df now
[21:33] <YamakasY> oops
[21:33] <YamakasY> du
[21:33] <k1l_> YamakasY: use "ncdu" which got a nicer "gui" :)
[21:33] <thierry> gtg
[21:34] <motaka2> TJ-: may I leave it as itis downoading language packages and return back to it by tomorrow ?
[21:34] <TJ-> motaka2: yes, assuming you don't lose the connectivity like last time :D
[21:35] <TJ-> motaka2: tell your sleeping office colleague not to disconnect the modem :)
[21:35] <MehmetCengiz> selam turklere
[21:36] <motaka2> TJ-: He is sleeping right now. I think I should gaurd the modem till morning ?
[21:36] <k1l_> !tr | MehmetCengiz
[21:36] <TJ-> motaka2: yes, or lock him out the modem room
[21:36] <TJ-> motaka2: at least you're now making progress
[21:36] <motaka2> TJ-: :D I will lock in his sleeping room
[21:36] <grnadaUsa> I got a problem with running "apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade and then a reboot" when I do this in 14.04 LTS it breaks my network settings and I have to plug my ethernet cord into my second nic to get back online... The only problem is i got about 100 of these servers that I need to update and I need them to survive the update without having to keep fixing the settings. Apparently before the update it switches network
[21:36] <grnadaUsa> settings from em1 to em2 and em2 to em1. any ideas?
[21:37] <TJ-> grnadaUsa: they are using biosdevname ?
[21:39] <motaka2> TJ-: Actually I did a lot of PHP code aside with challenging with ubuntu
[21:40] <dontsnee> I have a question with "find" command
[21:41] <dontsnee> when I do "ls -a -l" there is a file with size 33b
[21:41] <gnixx> Why can I not view unity's version in 15.10? http://paste.ubuntu.com/13722261/
[21:41] <dontsnee> but when I check with "find . -size 33 -ls" I don't see the same file again
[21:42] <zykotick9> dontsnee: fyi, you can save some typing by using "ls -al" <- works for most single letter switches
[21:42] <TJ-> dontsnee: read "man find" and the section on "-size"
[21:42] <TJ-> dontsnee: by default "-size X" with no units is blocks of 512 bytes; you need the "c" suffix to use bytes
[21:43] <dontsnee> TJ oh wow..
[21:43] <dontsnee> thank you
[21:43] <dontsnee> and thanks for the trick zykotick9
[21:43] <grnadaUsa> TJ-, it is using em1 before the update, then em2 is getting set up with em1's configuration
[21:44] <dontsnee> btw, was freenode down a while ago?
[21:44] <TJ-> dontsnee: save another letter and do "ll -a" :)
[21:44] <gnixx> Anyone know why?
[21:44] <k1l_> gnixx: what command do you use?
[21:44] <gnixx> k1l_: unity --version
[21:44] <TJ-> grnadaUsa: is the host using biosdevname?
[21:44] <k1l_> gnixx: works here
[21:44] <gnixx> k1l_: 15.10?
[21:45] <k1l_> gnixx: yes
[21:45] <gnixx> k1l_: I just clean installed ubuntu 15.10. like a few hours ago.
[21:49] <gnixx> k1l_: So what do I do?
[21:49] <motaka2> TJ-: :) It is up and running. Thank you. Good night
[21:49] <davide> q
[21:49] <TJ-> motaka2: Fantastic, well done :)
[21:49] <k1l_> gnixx: is python-gobject installed?
[21:50] <gnixx> k1l_: Isn't it supposed to be after a clean install?
[21:51] <k1l_> gnixx: is it installed or not?
[21:51] <gnixx> k1l_: Let me check. If it's not, do I install it?
[21:51] <k1l_> gnixx: yes
[21:51] <k1l_> apt-cache policy python-gobject
[21:52] <gnixx> k1l_: It wasn't...
[21:52] <gnixx> k1l_: Are you on 15.10?
[21:52] <k1l_> yes
[21:53] <gnixx> k1l_: You had python-gobject installed after installing 15.10?
[21:54] <k1l_> dont know. its now on my system and is requested by a ton of other packages
[21:54] <gnixx> k1l_: Alright. Well, it seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks.
[21:59] <anew> anyone set up xming from your home to connect remotely to ubuntu
[22:00] <not-W3CCV>  /part
[22:02] <Finetunrda_>  Good afternoon folks. I require some assistance. I need to setup a netgear ma101 wireless adapter on a computer that has no internet access. Any thoughts? I know the driver is at76_usb. Does anyone know how I should go about this?
[22:04] <Garnate> ??
[22:14] <ozzycon> this is pretty sweet lol
[22:15] <sudo3> hi, any idea how to add some code to image or on webpage to check how many times image was viewed?
[22:17] <SchrodingersScat> sudo3: not a #ubuntu question, but maybe php can iterate a number in a file, or if you have logs you could parse logs.
[22:17] <sudo3> hm, so if i have uploaded image i can check in logs how many times it was viewed? sorry but couldnt find such log. i know somehow its possible with htaccess
[22:18] <sudo3> no soryr, not htaccess. my bad
[22:18] <imthenachoman> hey guys. having a strange issue. my ubuntu install is randomly freezing. complete system freeze. i can
[22:18] <SchrodingersScat> sudo3: check in /var/log/ then whatever webserver you're using
[22:18] <imthenachoman> hey guys. having a strange issue. my ubuntu install is randomly freezing. complete system freeze. i can't even SSH to it and keyboard inputs won't respond. it's random. is there anyway to see the last thing the machine was doing before it froze?
[22:19] <k1l> imthenachoman: see in /var/log/syslog.0 or syslog.1 at the end
[22:21] <imthenachoman> k1l: there is no syslog.0 and syslog.1 stops way before the crash. looks like syslog has info. checking it
[22:22] <sudo3> to be honest i wanted to add that image to emails to check how many people opened mails. My dude told me i can check it somewhere in linux log but forgotten the name of file. Anyway I checked that file and couldn't see any statistics there. Never worked with it before.
[22:26] <MWM_> Ive been using teamviewer to work on my homeserver (headless) and I borked teamviewer so now I can get it.  I can still see my samba shares, but I can get in with ssh either (connection refused) is there another way?
[22:26] <MWM_> *cant
[22:28] <SchrodingersScat> sudo3: if you used apache2 for instance, then /var/log/apache2/access.log will have the latest logs of things that were webserved by you.  Otherwise you'd need to find a system for doing what you want.
[22:28] <limp> i am on ubuntu version 14 with kernel 3.13.0-32-generic
[22:28] <limp> my problem is my right mouse button doesn't work
[22:29] <limp> when i do lsusb i see it as logitech , Inc M90/M100 Optical mouse
[22:29] <limp> ...etc
[22:30] <limp> how do i fix this i don't see anything in x11 that would control or be screwing with this not functioning
[22:30] <sudo3> thanks mate thats good;]
[22:31] <MWM_> alternative to ssh?
[22:31] <limp> do i need a different driver program then what is built in to linux because i can show you what modprobe info and lsmod gives me for the kernal modules for the mouse if any
[22:32] <limp> not sure if i have the cd for the mouse for getting the drivers from and not even sure if the cd has the linux drivers or just the drivers in microsoft form
[22:34] <MWM_> limp: have you done the regular trouble shooting?  tried another mouse?  uninstalled adn reinstalled?
[22:34] <limp> there is a psmouse driver in the lsmod but i don't think that is it because this is usb based
[22:36] <TJ-> limp: does the right mouse button work with any other PC/OS ?
[22:36] <limp> would it be usbhid or under some other kernel module name
[22:36] <limp> the right is not the problem it is the left that is the problem
[22:36] <MWM_> I would unplug the non working mouse, then plug in another to test.  sudo apt-get update.  then switch back to your other mouse and update again.  After that id be here asking the same questions :)
[22:36] <TJ-> 22:28:58             limp | my problem is my right mouse button doesn't work
[22:36] <limp> only on ubuntu 14 version i am on
[22:37] <limp> O sorry i made a mistake i meant left mouse button
[22:37] <TJ-> limp: OK... lets start again... can you test it on another PC/OS to ensure this isn't a hardware issue?
[22:37] <limp> it is a mouse that has a wheel  and the wheel and left button works
[22:38] <TJ-> you mean the right button works?
[22:38]  * inteus facepalm
[22:38] <limp> yes it works on a different machine
[22:38] <limp> no it is the left mouse button
[22:38] <TJ-> limp: does it work on another PC with Ubuntu, or with Windows?
[22:38] <limp> i mean all buttons work on another computer
[22:39] <limp> windows
[22:39] <limp> and i have used it with older version of ubuntu fine
[22:39] <TJ-> limp: OK, lets see what we can find
[22:41] <limp> http://pastebin.com/wqVizWt5 where would the mouse driver be
[22:41] <limp> its not the psmouse is it
[22:42] <TJ-> limp: many of the comments here, some specific to 14.04, seem to point to the cause and some workarounds: http://superuser.com/questions/72112/mouse-clicks-suddenly-stopped-working-in-ubuntu
[22:44] <limp> ok i will look into your link curious though what kernal module is for the usb mouse i see only psmouse which is for ps/2 old mouses
[22:45] <limp> in the lsmod i gave you where is it is it part of some usbhid kernel module or something builtin how can you tell what driver is for what devices?
[22:45] <Bashing-om> limp: " < limp> i am on ubuntu version 14 with kernel 3.13.0-32-generic
[22:46] <TJ-> limp: generally the mouse will be using usbhid module
[22:46] <Bashing-om> limp: opps . / need to get ya updated . current kernel is " 3.13.0-71-generic ' .
[22:47] <limp> Bashing-om did you see my lsmod post i am looking to find what driver controls the mouse or in general away to determine what module is used for what or what driver program/process is used for what but just going by the names it makes it difficult some times... is there an easier way
[22:48] <Bashing-om> limp: Follow TJ- 's advise  here on modules . I will follow his lead in this respect .
[22:49] <limp> basically the general question is given a device say gotton from lshw lsusb lspci ,..etc or just by looking at your computer peripherials actually figure out what program/process or module is its driver program for the hardware
[22:50] <TJ-> limp: do a test in a terminal; "xev" (X events) then in the window that appears press and release the left mouse button - does the terminal show ButtonPress ButtonRelease events
[22:50] <AsoSako> Can anyone help me with Launchpad 2FA it didn't let me register a device yet it now asks for a Verification code.
[22:50] <limp> I am have trouble with this since if i can find the module or process then i can look into it and maybe understand why this particular driver doesn't support these options and know where to go to hunt one down
[22:51] <limp> yes i get a ton of propertynotify events
[22:52] <TJ-> limp: right, but those are probably due to movement. keep the mouse still, and press/release the left button, do you see ButtonPress/ButtonRelease events for button 1
[22:52] <limp> but after that i try to click it again any of the buttons and they don't display any more events but  right button still works
[22:53] <TJ-> limp: this is the kind of thing to expect, per mouse click: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13724678/
[22:53] <TJ-> limp: notice there, the "button 1" - that's the left button. "button 3" is usually the right button
[22:55] <limp> no i get the mouse moved events and the right mouse button pressed events like yours but nothing for the left button at all no error or anything when i press or even hold
[22:56] <limp> for me right click is button 3
[22:57] <limp> for me right click is button 3
[22:58] <limp> and button 2 is when i click on the wheel in the middle of the mouse
[22:59] <limp> and when i click and scroll the middle of the mouse i get buttons 4 and 5 events
[22:59] <limp> but no button 1 which i would imagine would be the number for left
[22:59] <TJ-> limp: good, OK, so we know its there. Now "sudo apt-get install evtest"
[23:00] <limp> what is that for
[23:00] <TJ-> limp: and also "pastebinit <( ls -l /dev/input/by-path/* )" please
[23:00] <TJ-> limp: diagnostic testing of the device itself
[23:02] <limp> ok you mean the symlinks  http://pastebin.com/Lc1gV76T
[23:04] <TJ-> limp: so it looks like it'll be on /dev/input/event2 or /dev/input/event7. Use "sudo evtest /dev/input/eventX" on each in turn and see if either respond for that mouse, so we know which eventX it is on, and then also whether you see any events when the left button is pressed
[23:05] <TJ-> limp: for button-down events you'd expect something like this: "Event: time 1449356683.926986, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 272 (BTN_LEFT), value 1" <--- value 1 for press and 0 for release
[23:06] <limp> ok apt-cache tells me evtest is a monitor linux input device events
[23:07] <limp> ok when i run the evtest i get event2 like you said being logitech usb optical mouse
[23:08] <limp> what is select a device number going to do
[23:08] <TJ-> limp: if you see no events for the left mouse button with evtest, then there's a hardware problem, most likely with the USB port. so first thing is try a USB port in a different location if there is one (e.g. on a Desktop if it is using a front USB port, try it in a rear port). This kind of issue is often caused by damaged cables connecting the ports to the motherboard. It can also affect laptops where
[23:08] <TJ-> physical stress has damaged the solder connections.
[23:11] <limp> no i don't have event left button at all
[23:11] <TJ-> limp: that confirms there's a hardware issue then. As you found it works on another PC, I'd suspect the USB port
[23:16] <TJ-> limp: do you have multiple mouse devices connected? I'm seeing some suggestion that sometimes that can cause side-effects (e.g. USB and Bluetooth mice connected at the same time)
[23:18] <limp> never mind i was mistaken now it doesn't work on any computer the left button so i am getting the same result so ya your right the mouse button is dead on the left i will give it a shot in opening it up and trying to fix but i probably will need another one thanks not a driver issue
[23:19] <limp> ANd i have tryed different usb ports same result
[23:19] <TJ-> limp: probably some dirt of fluff
[23:19] <limp> it is optical so not like there is a wheel on the bottom to detect motion and pick up dirt
[23:20] <TJ-> limp: I mean in the button itself; you'd be amazed how much sweaty grime comes off your fingers and gets inside
[23:20] <TJ-> limp: sometimes they spring-action just stops working and the button sticks down
[23:20] <limp> o wait when i try click the left button while wiggling the wires or usb cable of the mouse i some times can get it to click on the left mouse button
[23:21] <TJ-> limp: i generally find opening the case and cleaning with a toothbrush helps keep them working
[23:21] <TJ-> limp: aha! nice detective work, so, needs a new cable then
[23:21] <limp> so it seems its more a loss or paritially broke wire  shouldn't be to bad to repair provide the wires aren't an f'er to splice into and resolder together or spade connect them together
[23:22] <limp> nice this problem was bugging me for a while now i am ok and feel good about if the wires are easy enough to splice into the repair will be pretty simple
[23:22] <TJ-> limp: just what I was about to say. if you can pin-point the fracture. Those USB wires often only have 5 or 7 strands or extremely thin wire, and break easily
[23:24] <limp> well i don't think i will have a problem with a multimeter or continuty probe/test to pin point this my problem is if the wire type is to much of a pain to splice into or resolder up
[23:24] <TJ-> limp: It's not expensive to completely replace the cable, and just solder the correct header on the mouse end, usually a 0.1" header
[23:24] <limp> I can take a pin and push it in then uses alligator clips to my DMM or tester to read resistance or other things
[23:24] <TJ-> limp: if the break is close to the mouse end you can just shorten the cable a bit
[23:26] <limp> very easy it is having after found the break actually splicing into it and resoldering or finding a way to reconnect it with out shorting out the other stuff i am hopeing they are rather seperated wire  insulated cables so i can be sure i am not going to cause more issues in cutting and reconnecting
[23:27] <limp> I not sure what the inside of a usb 3.0 cable looks like but some security camera cables make very difficult to splice back a connection so i am crossing my fingers when i open this up
[23:27] <limp> some times the simplest things are the hardest
[23:27] <limp> you know what i mean
[23:27] <limp> Thanks man for the help
[23:29] <limp> O one more question is there any good way to know what process and modules that you can list with ps or lsmod corrospond to for your hardware of your computer... some times the names or even the modinfo of it isn't enough for me to determine exactly what hardware driver it is for
[23:29] <limp> like psmouse is pretty easy to understand but what is the driver for the usb mouse that i was checking with the x11 programs
[23:30] <diaegouD> I can't get VirtualBox to size up the "screen" to let me set settings.
[23:30] <diaegouD> Also, should I direct this question somewhere else?
[23:30] <k1l> diaegouD: install the "guest additions" inside the guest OS
[23:30] <diaegouD> Cool. I did that.
[23:30] <diaegouD> Step 2?
[23:31] <limp> does psmouse only do ps/2 based mouses or do they do usb if it is usbhid then how do you differeniate what driver is used for the usb device
[23:31] <isReKT2000> diaegouD, set the resolution
[23:32] <k1l> diaegouD: rebootet the vm?
[23:32] <limp> or another word how does one know which device file for a particular device is controlled by which kernel module or built in process?
[23:33] <diaegouD> k1l: Did once, will again now.
[23:33] <limp> that is my major problem now
[23:33] <Guest9761> ima li ikoga iz Srbije?
[23:34] <limp> anybody know
[23:35] <k1l> !rs | Guest9761
[23:35] <diaegouD> k1l, It's a Christmas miracle!
[23:36] <TJ-> limp: For PCI devices, "lspci -nnk" will report the driver in use. Otherwise, "lshw"
[23:36] <k1l> diaegouD: it works now?
[23:36] <diaegouD> Well...
[23:36] <diaegouD> The resolution's up, but I need to install again somehow.
[23:37] <limp> lsusb tells me what devices are on what usb hub or port , lspci tells me what devices are on  what pci slot , lshw tells me the hardware in the computer , lsmod tells me what kernel modules are in memory or in uses , modinfo tells me info on any particular module.... but what tells me what devices uses what process or module in driving it? I see no easy way to corolate this info
[23:37] <TJ-> limp: lshw
[23:38] <diaegouD> Probably it's got to do with that the Storage settings for the VM reverted back to "Empty."
[23:38] <diaegouD> So I put it back to Desktop\etc. and now it says "Welcome. Install?"
[23:39] <TJ-> limp: provided you run it with superuser privileges, it'll report "configuration: driver=..." for those devices it can resolve correctly
[23:39] <k1l> i dont understand what you did and what the issue is right niw
[23:39] <k1l> *now
[23:39] <diaegouD> Eh, I'll figure this one out.
[23:40] <diaegouD> Thanks for the help though!
[23:40] <SchrodingersScat> unmount the livecd image
[23:40] <limp> you say if i run sudo lsusb instead of just lsusb
[23:41] <limp> TJ how do you know what the optimical mouse is to know where to look for the driver=...
[23:42] <anew> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32045682/dns-probe-finished-bad-config-error i am trying to do the top answer here, but everytime i restart ubuntu the changes are not saved?
[23:42] <limp> TJ what program
[23:43] <teward> anew: is this on a Desktop that uses Network Manager to manage the networking?
[23:43] <anew> not sure what you mean?
[23:43] <anew> ubuntu 14.04 virtual machine
[23:43] <limp> sudo lshw | grep "mouse" gives me nothing
[23:43] <teward> anew: is the VM a Desktop or a SErver image
[23:43] <teward> anew: i.e. do you have a GUI that was installed with one of the Desktop installation ISOs
[23:44] <teward> (and NOT the cli-only one0
[23:44] <limp> and i am always wondering what to grep for 100% corospondence i am really guessing at what the string should have in it for finding the mouse driver data
[23:44] <anew> damn actually i dont know, i guess desktop?
[23:44] <anew> how do i check that ?
[23:44] <anew> ok yes
[23:44] <teward> anew: you'd know, do you have a GUI with a bar on the left for application launchers, and the time at the top and such?
[23:44] <anew> the iso has -desktop- in it
[23:44] <anew> yes i have that also
[23:45] <teward> anew: OK, then you installed the Desktop version.  Resolv.conf is overwritten frequently by networkmanager.
[23:45] <teward> anew: since it's the Desktop ISO, Network Manager maintains all that
[23:45] <teward> anew: make sure you modify the network settings in Network Manager for DNS servers, or edit /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head instead
[23:45] <anew> right below it gives instructions for sudo gedit /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head and says if u do that it wont get overwritten
[23:45] <lysobit> Congratulations to teward for saying that students should be molded into “change agents” to promote his malefic, crime-stained agenda.
[23:45] <anew> yeah, still gets overwriten :(
[23:45] <teward> anew: shouldn't, though, and I have a 14.04 box myself
[23:46] <anew> bleh
[23:46] <teward> anew: you may need to reboot the VM
[23:46] <limp> Ok knowing this Bus 001 Device 011: ID 046d:c05a Logitech , Inc . M90/M100 Optical Mouse
[23:46] <teward> anew: OR edit the network manager network settings to specify DNS servers to use through that
[23:46] <limp> how do you go from that to the lsmod module for it
[23:47] <limp> or process ps -A for it
[23:47] <limp> anybody can explain that then i am allset of awhile
[23:48] <anew> ok i'll google that
[23:49] <limp> though only way i would have to modinfo each module and look for the bus device ,...etc info and even that not sure if it is guarenteed way of doing it
[23:51] <limp> looks like usbhid be that is like a ton of drivers for a bunch of hid and also depends on the  modinfo hid  which has no dependencies itself
[23:53] <Cybergeeek> https://imgur.com/gallery/STYJb9h
[23:53] <limp> so kind of wondering if all the usb drivers are builtin to go thru usbhid  if that is true one would have to recompile in another usb driver device everytime a new one becomes available or at least upgrade the module completely
[23:53] <limp> but i lack of understanding
[23:53] <limp> full yet
[23:54] <limp> ps/2 mouse seems to have its own specific module
[23:54] <k1l> Cybergeeek: that better suits into the #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[23:55] <Cybergeeek> oh
[23:55] <thecolorsduke> does anyone have experience with cinnamon
[23:56] <thecolorsduke> I'm not even sure if this is a cinnamon problem, all I know is that I'm sideways
[23:56] <k1l> thecolorsduke: other desktops work?
[23:56] <k1l> thecolorsduke: what ubuntu is it? what hardware?
[23:56] <thecolorsduke> I don't have any others installed, but I'm considering getting xfce on here
[23:57] <watson> 1
[23:57] <thecolorsduke> I should probably explain
[23:57] <thecolorsduke> I'm on Linux Mint 17.3, and all of my installed graphics card drivers give me the same problem
[23:58] <k1l> thecolorsduke: for mint support better ask the mint guys
[23:58] <k1l> !mint | thecolorsduke
[23:58] <thecolorsduke> alright, let's assume that it's just Ubuntu
[23:58] <k1l> thecolorsduke: nope
[23:58] <thecolorsduke> really I'm just trying to figure out where I screwed up
[23:59] <k1l> go to the mint support that is autojoin on your irc client. we are annoyed of hunting down bugs that mint raised. so ask them to help you. thanks
