OnkelTemhow to connect an android phone to ubuntu 14.04? it doesn't work00:06
OnkelTemand actually, this is weird00:06
k1lOnkelTem: connect the usb cable?00:06
OnkelTemdone next00:07
bpromptOnkelTem:   plug in cable, plug cable to pc, done :)00:07
k1lmight choose to share the usb connection on the phone, called MTP or such00:07
OnkelTemk1l: it is by default on android 6.x (i guess)00:07
Vaderi have a problem with pure-ftpd00:07

k1lOnkelTem: i use cm13 where i need to set it to allow the connection on the phone00:08
OnkelTemk1l, bprompt: ubuntu informs me that ,my nexus 5 is connected, suggests to open Files, but then nothing00:08
OnkelTemnothing - no files in Dolphin00:09
bpromptOnkelTem:    hmmm I use pcmanfm, and the android device(5.0 or 4.4.2) show up there, dunno on 6.x, but latest IIRC is 5.0.100:09
mcphailOnkelTem: is the phone screen on and unlocked when you connect?00:10
* mcphail hasn't used an android 6 device00:10
OnkelTemmcphail: it is00:11
mcphailOnkelTem: and the USB cable is a proper USB cable, and not just a charging cable?00:12
princer1old times irc00:12
princer1yeaaah!!00:12
bpromptOnkelTem:    hmm nope, I use dolphin as well, it doesn't quite show.... IIRC, but that's just the DCOP connection I think, tried another file manager?00:12
OnkelTemmcphail: well, let me try another one, I'm not sure00:12
Vaderfuck it00:13
bpromptOnkelTem:    as aforementioned, it does show for me in pcmanfm, it does not in dolphin though, or konqueror00:13
Finetunrda_what should I install for an ssh server?00:15
johndoe__There is the energy in /sys/devices/virtual/powercap/intel-rapl/subsystem/intel-rapl:0/energy_uj that I could use to compute the power, but I think it should be already computed somewhere.00:16
OnkelTemmcphail: changed cable, I'm sure it is just ok (according to syslog). bprompt: just installed pcmanfm - there are mtp and Nexus 5 entries - still no files00:17
bprompthmmm00:17
mcphailOnkelTem: sorry, then, because I'd be shooting in the dark as I don't have a 6.x device. Perhaps the udev rules don't exist for these things yet?00:18
bprompthmmm something tells me it isn't a 6.x android00:18
bpromptOnkelTem:    hold the mayo, I know that mtp drivers get kinda slacky somewhere, I use 12.04, thought 14.04 had better support or such, one sec00:19
bpromptOnkelTem:    usually though, those entries in pcmanfm ARE the card and internal storage in the device00:19
k1lOnkelTem: what ubuntu is it exactly?00:19
bpromptOnkelTem:   and you can drag and drop to them00:19
k1lFinetunrda_: openssh-server00:20
bpromptOnkelTem:    one sec... I use something, lemme poke the repositories, to see if they have it00:21
k1land i am not sure if the doplhin can use mtp by default like nautilus does00:22
OnkelTembprompt: when I've tried to copy a file into there (in PCManFM) it said - Cannot write to this location00:22
OnkelTemk1l: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS00:22
OnkelTemk1l: I'm sure it should00:22
phat3test00:23
OnkelTemphat3: not passed00:24
bpromptOnkelTem:     https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/ubuntu/unstable   <----     add that ppa, it has the package I use, works very well, tis go-mtpfs,    it also has a go-mtpfs-unity   which is a utility that shows up the mtp devices on the desktop in Unity, if using the file manager, you can use the devices under /media/MyAndroid  it has two directories, Card and Phone, or Card and Tablet00:25
shomonhi, I've been trying to switch to a static IP in ubuntu 14.. but getting no-where.. I've tried it on networkmanager and using etc/network/interfaces..00:26
OnkelTembprompt: doing00:26
bpromptOnkelTem:    I did see it in the repositories, but only for "xenial" or 15.04 I think, but not for others like 14.04, though the ppa has versions for 12.x and up IIRC00:27
shomonif I go to edit connections, it won't let me save the edited thing.. is there some permission that isn't working?00:27
OnkelTembprompt: unfort there is not go-mtpfs exactly for 14.04 (trusty) :(00:28
shomonto get a static IP I thought you had to go to edit connections/ip4/method manual then fill in an ip and regular gateway and netmask. how can I tell what is going wrong?00:28
shomonthe save button is always greyed out00:28
bpromptOnkelTem:    I run it in 12.04, so....  I'd think they have it for 14.04 surely00:28
OnkelTembprompt: btw, when I was on 12.04, I remind now that I used exactly go-mtpfs to connect android, I even have MyAndroid dir still00:29
OnkelTembprompt: no, they don't. I think this is because it is supposed to work out of the box00:29
OnkelTemcrap, I think that healing restart could be needed00:30
bpromptOnkelTem:  yes, so I understood as well, for 14.04 mtp support would be improvied00:30
bpromptimproved even00:30
k1lmtp works on 14.04 ootb for gnome based desktops00:31
k1lOnkelTem: make sure mtpfs  is installed00:31
OnkelTemit is of course00:32

bpromptOnkelTem:   other than that, the entries you saw in pcmanfm, should allow you to drag and drop stuff to them, keeping in mind that, google has included some restrictions by default from 4.4.2 and up, like, if you try to copy files to a folder you didn't make, it wont' let you, or if you want to delete files in a microsd card from android, it won't let you either00:33
OnkelTemk1l: (about gnome) - maybe it would work, I can't check that. Had to switch to KDE (which I dislike actually) because of braindeads in the gnome team who released gnome with broken locale support :(00:33
anewah thanks will bookmark for tomorrow00:34
bpromptOnkelTem:     you could try this... hmmm open pcmanfm, go to your android entries, make a new folder, and then dump your files there, since it's a folder "you" made, then you have ownership to it, and thus, it'd let you00:34
MrCee3hello where shall i go to get help with play on linux and installing battlenert00:36

k1lMrCee3: wine or playonlinux guys can help00:37
MrCee3how do i find them.. are they here? will teh wine folks please stand up00:37
k1l!wine | MrCee300:37
ubottuMrCee3: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu00:37

MrCee3that didnt work00:38
Finetunrda_Hey folks, can anyone help me with forwarding audio over ssh?00:38
OnkelTembprompt: nah, the same crap - Cannot write to this location00:38
bpromptOnkelTem:    as aforementioned, bear in mind that, google has added some access restrictions from 4.4.2 and up00:39
OnkelTembprompt: also when I try to create a folder it warns: Cannot make directory in this location00:39
MrCee3that didnt help00:39
bpromptOnkelTem:     how many android entries do you see there?00:39
MrCee3 i want to load battlenet application and within playon linux i cant find it00:39
k1lMrCee3: come on. the bots message names the channel00:39

MrCee3#winehq00:40
inteusput a / in front of join00:41
bpromptOnkelTem:    hmmm unplug, replug, relaunch pcmanfm, try making the folder, IIRC the issue is if you try to copy or drop files to the microsd or removable disk00:41
shomonhi, does anyone know a bit about static ip addresses?00:41
OnkelTembprompt: well, let me try with an usb stick flash drive00:41
k1lMrCee3: "/j #winehq" or just use your mouse, click on the channelname and press join. but that is all very easy task and you should think about offending others that may help you00:42
bpromptOnkelTem:    if you drag/drop files to the internal though, it doesn't have that access restriction, then again, bear in mind, those were added by  google after 4.4.200:42
MrCee3inteus... thanks Im sure that will help out a lot... better help than i get from the @sshole k1l00:42
inteusMrCee3: stop with the name calling00:43
frewdoes anyone know if there is an ubuntu variant that comes with as little as possible out of the box?  I just hate that I have a list of packages thta I install already but then there are a ton of things I never use already installed as well00:43
OnkelTembprompt: just checked - works like a charm: successfuly created a dir, then removed it. I mean with usb flash drive00:43
SchrodingersScatshomon: are you the admin? not sure why 'save' would be grayed out, works on my machine00:43
frewI was thinking either the server version or maybe just using debian 800:43
shomonaaah maybe it's running as my user not as root...00:43
inteusfrew: try the net install?00:43
bpromptOnkelTem:    with hmm w0t?   you mean using OTG?00:43
shomonnope, it's root..00:44
SchrodingersScatshomon: you shouldn't have to run it as root though00:44
OnkelTembprompt: what is OTG?00:44
frewinteus: yeah, maybe I will next time around00:44
SchrodingersScatshomon: I was just thinking maybe there's a group that can't alter that, guessing00:44
shomonI'll try as me.. well it ended up that way now trying to fix the lack of a static ip actually00:44
inteusfrew: I think that's the bare minimum installer00:44
bpromptOnkelTem:   I guess it wasn't OTG =)  then... anyhow... so... I'd expect ubuntu to copy to usb... that is not the issue with the android, what I've said is that, google added some restrictions to the mounted devices, not ubuntu :/00:45

ubottufrew: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.  The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD).

bpromptOnkelTem:     if you have files, in the microsd, that you copied over, not in android, but say in the pc, once in android, it won't let you delete, that's one restriction, but that's google that added after 4.4.2, nothing to do with the desktop OS mounting the mtp device00:49

diaegouDThe VirtualBox manual says to "mount this ISO file in your VM," but I can't find a way to get to its installation directory within Uguestu.01:11
diaegouDAh, that's to install Guest Additions.01:12
daftykinslearning to use virtualbox? they have a channel at #vbox01:12
diaegouDYeah, but this particular question is about mounting.01:12
diaegouDAnd how to it.01:13
johndoe__diaegouD, yes, but you mounta disk image for virtualbox thanks to virtualbox01:13
daftykinsdiaegouD: vbox guests can have an ISO mounted directly for installation by selecting it within the VM properties...01:13
diaegouDEh, OH! You mean in VB, when you select a Box and hit Settings you mount it there?01:14

johndoe__diaegouD, When you open the vbox, in the tab at the up, usually there are options like mount this specific iso, but as says, in #vbox they may have more precie knowledge of where it is01:16
bekksjohndoe__: you still have to mount the virtual cdrom device manually.01:16

Staticsn0wHey all01:23
Staticsn0wim having a problem installing Ubuntu 14.04.301:24
Staticsn0wLTS01:24
bekksStaticsn0w: Which issue?01:24
Staticsn0wOk, so im booting Ubuntu from a 2g usb flash drive with no persistent storage or whatever it is, I go to the install Ubuntu program and it said install alongside Windows 8 one time but now it won't, I tried rebooting, I'm lost :/01:26
Staticsn0wim in Windows 8 right now01:26
gregdual boot01:26
greghave you done partition?01:26
bekks!dualboot | Staticsn0w01:26
ubottuStaticsn0w: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot01:26
Staticsn0wbut when I had the option to install along side win 8 it took me through an easy partitioning wizard01:27
Staticsn0wbut the manual one gets me confused, because it isn't just the "drag for how much storage you want on each os" thing01:28
johndoe__Staticsn0w, Maybe you did already change partitioning and it wants you to run chkdsk on windows to be sure everything is safe on that side?01:29
Staticsn0wi did01:29
Staticsn0wbut Windows (when I try to resize partition) said my disk is corrupted01:29
Staticsn0w(even though Windows is flawless as usuall)01:30
Staticsn0wrunning win 8.1 to be exact01:30
johndoe__Staticsn0w, If you did change the windows partition yet, it wont allows to do it again if you don't make a checkdist under windows before.01:30
gregwhy u r resizing?01:30
Staticsn0wbecause I don't know how to split one partition in to 2 different sized partitions01:31
johndoe__Staticsn0w, (At least it is how it worked for me before).01:31
Staticsn0wshould I try rewriting the live usb?01:31
gregthats done via contrl pannel in window01:31
staticsn0wsorry guys my ipad died, im back on the computer im trying to install ubuntu on01:34
johndoe__staticsn0w, I think doing the windows checkdisk is the only thing you have to do before having again the option you want.01:34

johndoe__staticsn0w, than the reboot (it will display some lines, but will be fast thanks to the ssd)01:41
staticsn0wok01:41
johndoe__staticsn0w, I think it needs to be an admin windows prompt01:41
johndoe__staticsn0w, It should say is you don't have the right. If the command works, it should say that it can't do it now, but it is scheduled for the next reboot01:42

JillyJHi Everyone, I'm looking at new laptops and trying to figure out if Ubuntu will run on something with a braswell chipset.01:46
k1lpc1: scrap that 10.10. that is dead a long time and no one is fixing any errors for that01:46
pc1its brings up that error no matter what os i try01:46
JillyJI'm looking at one of the HP x360's01:46
pc1hard drive is good i tested it01:46
JillyJDo you think the wi-fi driver will be there?01:47
* m3n3chm0 nasZ01:47
pc1anyone??01:49
johndoe__k1l, Why not? This is a modern Intel processor, it should have all the driver for the processor.01:49
k1ljohndoe__: ?01:50
johndoe__pc1, How did you tested the hard drive?01:50
johndoe__k1l, sorry, mixed with JillyJ 's message01:51
k1ljohndoe__: ubuntu 10.10 is dead. even installing it will not help anything . so there is no point in installing it in the first place. start with a propt ubuntu that actually is still supported01:51
JillyJI just had to return a brand new skylate chipset laptop because I couldn't get the wi-fi drivers.  How are you supposed to get wi-fi drivers if you don't have any wi-fi drivers?01:51

pc1with the live cd01:52
Guest66385hello01:52
johndoe__JillyJ, This is in deed not always easy when you don't have wifi driver (sometimes ethernet can be an option). But still possible to download from an other computer than transfer with an USB stick01:53
=== Monthrect is now known as Piper-Off
JillyJyes with the live CD.  And no ethernet port.01:54
johndoe__JillyJ, The last wifi chip I had working out of the bow went Intell ones, but I don't know if this is a good general rule.01:54
JillyJIt's a laptop.  I hope they can do a better job of getting wi-fi to work out of the box...because I'm fairly good at this stuff and I couldn't make it work.01:54
johndoe__Intel*01:54
pc1it gives you that option with the live usb01:54
pc1doesnt it?01:55

k1lpc1: why do you use a 10.10 iso? use a 14.04 iso, that still gets support01:57
pc1ive tried it still gives the same error01:57
pc1 input/output error during write on/dev/sda01:57
johndoe__k1l, I agree that he should do with a supported Ubuntu version, I did react in the ' no matter what os i try' idea, but he should continue with ether the LTS or 15.10 of course.01:58
pc1??01:59
johndoe__pc1, How did you try the hard drive defects to be sure that is not the cause?01:59
pc1check hard disk for errors01:59

=== admins is now known as hanshenrik
Bashing-omGuest94542: There is no straight forward answer to that . You can see your options from softwaresources -> Additional Drivers .02:36

Guest94542using processor microcode firmware for intel cpus from intel-microcode (properietary)02:40
Guest94542do not use the device02:40
Guest94542that's all i see02:40
Guest94542that was under the additional drivers item02:41
Bashing-omGuest94542: If this is an Intel graphic's card, Intel proves in the kernel the best they have to us . Maybe a laptop here with hybrid graphics ? Now that takes a bit of tweak'n .02:41

I would put ubuntu on it in a minute, but when I stick the live cd in, I have to hit the "e" key to make it load, and then I can't get any internet connection, like a laptop should do naturally! Oh! this has been so irritating! What should I do?03:17
Guest69224I can get the linux to load, but no internet connection, and i don't have an ethernet cord.03:18
Guest69224Do I have to get an ethernet cord to get on the internet to get the drivers,once I download ubuntu?03:20
spark010Guest69224 You will need drivers03:20

Guest69224I haven't installed it on that machine yet. Just wondering how I'm going to do it if I do (with the internet anyway)03:25
JuggieGuest69224, oh LOL, if the bootdvd/usb doesnt detect the wifi/network by default you can just download the drivers on another machine and copy them over with usb and install them03:26
Juggieyou can also dual boot windows and linux which in your case is what I would suggest03:26
Juggiegoogle for information on that!03:26
Juggieyou should also consider upgrading your windows 8.1 to windows 10.03:27
Andy1http://paste.ubuntu.com/13732822/03:27
staticsn0whow can i transfer space from one partition to another?03:27
Guest69224I can install it alright, but how am I going to get the internet? I will probably have to connect it with a ethernet cord and go online that way to get drivers.  oh copy them on a usb humm ok. So, booting it in live usb/cd doesn't necessarily connect it to the internet?03:27
Andy1can you tell me if i need to install any graphics driver for my laptop or i have everything already please?03:27

Hu4x3r1980003:30
Guest69224What did you do with your Fedora on that kind of computer?03:30
JuggieGuest69224, forget about that i'm just saying on some old nvidia stuff, drivers may not be included03:30
Juggiebut i dont know what your laptop is03:30
Juggieso just install it as dual boot and have at it03:30
Juggieif you need a driver you can reboot into windows03:31
Juggieget the .deb and then boot into ubuntu and install it03:31
Juggieno big deal03:31
Juggiejump into the deep end, be brave :P03:31
spark010erf it forgot the last line ... fuse: missing mountpoint parameter03:31
staticsn0whello?03:31
Bashing-omAndy1: That (primary) makes we want to insure this is not some kind of hybrid (optimus) graphics . so do ' sudo lshw -C display | pastebinit ' let's see what the grapics sets is doing .03:31

limpthat you don't even uses is there a specific way to tell the os's what .ko to load so when you lsmod you see those only ones04:39
wylemWould anyone be willing to help me out with a semi-annoying questions?04:40
wylemquestion*04:40
staticsn0whello? can anyone help me? ;-;04:40
limpI know you can always write a startup script that removes them and adds the ones you want but was  more wondering what process loads all the .ko and what determines which ones it is going to load04:40

laurusI am trying to remap a key to make it have the same functionality as "Alt." However xmodmap does not seem to be working. What should I do?04:46

staticsn0w:/04:55
staticsn0will try again though,04:55
daftykinsstaticsn0w: that's not the point, the idea is to run the commands from there to look at disk space... you likely made the problem worse by trying to startx if you used sudo.04:56
daftykinsstaticsn0w: alternatively, do you have a live session boot media on DVD/USB you can come on IRC from and investigate this system?04:57

bobdobbsI've set up passwordless SSH login to a remote server using ssh-copy-id. So I can log in to remote without entering a password. I'd like to also log in to remote using filezilla05:22
bobdobbsPresently filezilla requires a password. If I leave the password field empty then auth fails.05:23
djyellowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLsTskih7_I05:23
bobdobbsOnline docs say that I can import a key in to filezilla using it's graphic UI.05:24
bobdobbsSo, I have to go to settings->preferences... import key...05:25
bobdobbsso filezilla gives me a file browser for me to locate the key with05:25

aliendude5300Hello, I recently purchased a laptop -- an ASUS K501UX. It works with the nomodeset option but two finger scrolling, wireless connectivity and resolutions greater than 800x600 are broken. Can someone help me with this?07:37
daftykinsaliendude5300: which version did you install?07:39
aliendude5300I'm running Ubuntu 15.10 off a Live DVD. Not ready to commit to an install until I can get it a bit more functional07:39
aliendude5300At the VERY least I need wireless, it's a laptop after all07:40
daftykinsaliendude5300: nothing can be resolved until installed really, plus there'd be no point putting the work in since on reboot it'd be all gone.07:40
nbusronedaftykins : any help here ? :(07:40
aliendude5300I disagree with the no point thing -- if I learn valuable information, it's worth it for me to fix it and then reboot07:40
daftykinsnbusrone: with what07:41
aliendude5300I think the biggest issue is that my laptop is using a Sky Lake chip -- it's like really new.07:41
aliendude5300I'll grab an lshw output07:41
daftykinsaliendude5300: ok, well the problem is that you want someone elses time to do that... you need to identify the hardware in use first, can't do anything without that. "lspci | nc termbin.com 9999" would help there07:41
daftykinsno07:41

daftykinsintel 7265 wireless there aliendude5300 - odd that wouldn't work out of the box.07:43
daftykinsin fact it claims to be disabled, perhaps your wireless switch is off07:43
daftykins"rfkill list all" i think is helpful in those situations07:44
aliendude5300daftykins: http://termbin.com/45em07:44
daftykinsalright so you can do nothing with the graphics situation really until you've got an install07:44
aliendude5300daftykins, unfortunately there is no physical hardware switch07:44
daftykinsthere often is an Fn+F# combo07:45
aliendude5300The best I've got is an airplane mode fn combo, which I tried a few times07:45
aliendude5300That did not work07:45
aliendude5300Hmm, screen brightness fn keys are broken as well.07:47
aliendude5300Touchpad disable combo does absolutely nothing but touchpad works minus two finger scrolling07:47
aliendude5300Not all fn keys are broken though -- keyboard backlight, calculator, volume, screen blank all work fine07:48
aliendude5300I think I'm going to install to a flash drive or something so I can test this out more. It's too broken to be my daily machine, unfortunately07:49
aliendude5300Might just stick with Windows 10 until I can get Ubuntu working a bit better07:49
Mike1aliendude5300: but Fn keys are usually quite fixable07:50
Mike1or just use a different combination for the same thing07:50
aliendude5300Mike1, sure, but there is a long list of things broken with this.07:51
aliendude5300800x600 resolution is all that works, no hardware accelerated graphics, no wireless (thinks it's hw switch disabled with no way to turn it on), no way to change brightness at all, no two finger scrolling... it's quite broken :(07:51

daftykinsaliendude5300: i would ensure you tried booting into Windows, used the wifi... then reboot into the live session and try again - or you can try the unblock command with rfkill07:56
aliendude5300how can I use this unblock command07:56

JuicyParsonsI installed the latest version of ipython3 with pip3, and instead of just replacing ipython3, it also makes 'ipython' run Python3.5/ipython4.0 ... how do I make it where ipython points to python2.7/ipython again?09:42
=== ananda is now known as anandas
JuicyParsonsI don't want to uninstall Python 3.5 though - I want ipython3 to run the pip installed version, and I want ipython to run the default ubuntu ipython install09:43
OerHeksJuicyParsons, sudo update-alternatives --config python09:43
OerHeksand select the python you need09:44
JuicyParsonsOerHeks, "update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for python"09:45
JuicyParsons(same when I try for ipython)09:45
geirhaMh, because you installed it with pip instead of apt09:46
utu8oanyone here use ubuntu on a persistent USB flash drive?09:46
geirhaYou'll have to tell pip which python to use. Maybe #python knows.09:46
OerHeksgeirha +109:47
JuicyParsonsI installed it with apt first09:47
JuicyParsonsthe apt version is still installed.09:48
JuicyParsonsWhen I pip uninstall ipython3 (to remove the pip version) it goes back to using the Ubuntu default install09:48
geirhapip probably installs it in /usr/local/bin, while apt's is in /usr/bin09:49
JuicyParsonsYes, it does.09:49
geirhadoesn't pip let you install both versions?09:52
JuicyParsonsIt seems to wipe out whatever other pip versions you have though. Originally, I installed the latest version (4.0) ... then I needed to downgrade to 3.1.0 for compatability reasons, and when I did pip install "ipython[all]=3.1.0" it made 3.1 the default ... I honestly have no idea how to have simultaneous installs (although that would be the ideal situation for me)09:54
JuicyParsonsI'm asking in #python as you suggested, but no luck... I'll go read up more and see if I can find anything.09:55

xchatterCould it be possible that the SSD drive is defect?10:17
geirhapossibly. I'd try fsck on the filesystem10:18
xchattergeirha, simply fsck without variables?10:19
geirhaNo, you have to unmount the filesystem, then fsck /dev/sdb1 or whatever the device node is for that partition10:19
geirha!fsck10:20
ubottufsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot10:20
xchattergeirha, so it can only be done from a live USB stick then?10:20

OerHeks!rootirc10:51
ubottuIt's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet.10:51

Casper-OerHeks: there are a couple programs, i want to make launchers for. but i also just want to learn.  (yes ricochet, doesnt need sudo.  but my vpn does)10:52
Casper-i'm trying to do learn a bunchof things at once. sorry.    so the first question, is can u excute a program from not inside the directory  i.e.   ~/Downloads/.foo10:54
Casper-or do u have to combine the 2 commands together with (&&)?10:54
Casper-that seems inefficient  :)10:54
Casper-cd ~/Downloads/foo && ./foo10:55
SeriouslyLaughyou don't need to cd in order to execute a program Casper-10:55

kkjCasper-: No problem. :-)11:02
Casper-i though u needed the "."    Man, that is confusing-- so u need the "./" when u in the correct directory,  but not when u r in diff directry11:02
kkjCasper-: ~/Downloads/.foo is a hidden file.11:03

Casper-so then if u do that, the "foo" program works just by typing foo, and it seems easier to create launcher11:19

Casper-hmmm gftp.org says:  Latest Stable Version: 2.0.19 (11/30/2008)  --that's old, no?11:27

nylocHi again, I trying to create a live usb stick with persistence and a persistent home. I managed to create a stick that I can boot in live mode and that has two additional partitions (ext4) labled casper-rw and home-rw, but if I add the persistent line to my kernel options in grub I get droped to the initramfs12:27
Grimm_is it possible to have ubuntu 15.04 & 15.10 as two separate OS on one laptop?12:27
Dreamanlts in not this ubuntu12:27
Dreaman14.0412:28
nylocin the casper.log I find lines like mounting /dev/sdc3 on /root/home failed no such file or directory12:28
mcphailGrimm_: yes, of course. But 15.04 will be unsupported soon12:28
slidinghornGrimm_, I don't see why not.  You can just set them up as dual boot.  also, see ^^12:28
nylocin the initramfs console I can do mount /dev/sdc3 /root/home without an error12:28
nylocany one an idea?12:28
jihanDreaman: ubuntu is upgraded12:29
jihanupdate + dist-upgrade performed12:29
jihani will restart the machine and hope installing the extras needs it12:30
Grimm_OK. that means I'll only have to run it that way! I don't have enough disk space to backup my files in 15.0412:30
Grimm_If I upgrade everything will be lost right?12:30
mcphailGrimm_: upgrading _should_ not lose your files, but you should have a backup anyway12:31
mcphailGrimm_: (unless your files are not importaant to you)12:32
Grimm_how about the apps I installed from the software center?12:32
mcphailGrimm_: they should be upgraded too. But read the release notes for any issues12:33
Grimm_OK12:33
mcphailGrimm_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes#Upgrade12:34
Grimm_I'm there already thanks though :)12:36
Grimm_one more thing how about the apps I installed from outside the software center will they upgrade too?12:40
daftykinsyou need to remove all PPAs and all proprietary drivers prior to upgrade12:42

ubottuTo disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html12:42

daftykinsyou usually have to unlock the BIOS by entering one of them before you can change items13:01
Martijn-NLdaftykins, That's not possible because the newer linux-kernel/header are not compatible with Virtualbox, so if I install that my screen resolution will be 800x600 pixels13:02

ksftI'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I wrote a server that uses a UNIX socket, and I don't think the error I'm getting is because of a bug in the server or the networking library.13:33

I'm not sure about a few points, so I thought I 'd better ask here than be sorry later and having to start over.  Here is want I think I need to do. Please point out any issues. The server is empty, so no issue about backup...14:18
Hinnerk1. Create a physical partition on each of the 2 hdds for RAID.14:18
Hinnerk2. Create RAID114:18
Hinnerk3. Then I'm unsure how to proceed. I want boot outside lvm. So I think I need to create two partitions within the first one? One for boot and one for lvm? Not sure if this is right.14:18
Hinnerk4. Within LVM I need to create partitions for root, home,.... also not quite sure ho to do this.14:18

Hinnerkok. I finally got to a console using the "repair" option. Deleted all partitions. Installer looks good now (no partitions showing). Back to my original question: Is it correct to first create maximal physical partitions (ext4) for both hdd, then switch on raid1 and afterwards deal with lvm to create filesystems?15:52
stangelanddaftykins, well...I have responsibility over this box, so i decide what will be done with it. Furthermore i am in negotiation with another company to make IT support....a bigger company with more consultants....so for now i am more or less on my own until that agreement is done...hence why i am trying myself rigt now :)15:53

Hinnerkok, I found a manual on German ubunutusers about LVM and software raid (in the other manual I failed to find raid in the lvm manual and vice verse). I created a 150MB partition for boot of type "Physical volume for raid". But I can't set the boot flag. Is this normal? Can I change that later?16:12
jppIn the Disk Utility, there's an option to format the Drive, and to format the Volume.  Which do I want?16:12

cjohnsonnevermind ufw delete. that one the wiki page did document :)17:25

ShulkHi!17:37
ShulkI am running livecd and would like to know how I should partition my drive with gparted17:38
ShulkFor dual boot with Win717:38
emmanuelHello good morning!17:39
LtLShulk: are you going to use one or multiplle partitions?17:39
LtLShulk: *multiple17:40
Bashing-omShulk: As a new user .. what is wrong with using the install option " install along side " and let the install wizard set it up for you as standard defaults ? ( MBR has a 4 primary partition limit ) .17:40
emmanuelsomeone speaks Spanish?17:41
LtLBashing-om: carry on17:41
ShulkOh wow sorry17:41
ShulkIm back17:41
wakeatnightwhy after creating a ln -s symlink the link says "no such file or directory" when trying to run it?17:41
=== sins-_s is now known as sins-
emmanuelLinux distribution that you use?17:41
k1l!es | emmanuel17:42
ubottuemmanuel: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro.17:42
ShulkMy problem was that it had many partitions already, I installed windows in the one where windows already was and it installed in the huge partition that I wanted to leave to exchange files between the two17:42
Shulkit being ubuntu17:42
nuoHow much time does it take to upgrade to 15.10 , and can i run other applications when am upgrading ??17:42
ShulkBasically, I want to make a clean slate install17:42
ShulkMake it all a huge unallocated space17:42
ShulkThen17:42
ShulkShould I make a 50gb ntfs partition for windows, leave the unallocated alone, install windows and then install ubuntu alongside?17:43
nuo?17:43
staticsn0whey guys, i want to completely delete my windows os and merge the free space with my ubuntu partition17:43
staticsn0wcan i just do that in the Disk program?17:43
staticsn0wor do i have to use gparted?17:44
m3n3chm0staticsn0w use gparted !17:44
Grimm_Shulk: what is your  hard disk capacity17:44
staticsn0wok so i just delete the partition?17:44
staticsn0wthen how do i merge it with ubuntu?17:44
staticsn0wcause windows is retarded and takes up too much space17:45
m3n3chm0staticsn0w once it's deleted you can mergue it from gparted17:45
jadistaticsn0w, delete the partion and gparted will let you extend the one you have17:45
staticsn0wok cool17:45
staticsn0wwhat do i format it as17:45
staticsn0wwhat file format or whatever (fat, fat32, ext4)17:46
m3n3chm0ext417:46
staticsn0wok17:46
jadistaticsn0w, one way is just deleting it and extending the one you have later.17:46
staticsn0wok17:46
Bashing-omShulk: With setting aside a partition for ubuntu, you will want to use the install option " something else" and point the installer to the desired partition(s) to install too . I do prefer a small swap partition IF you have 4 or more Gigs of ram .17:46
jadistaticsn0w, but if you are formatting go for ext4 and then merge the two17:46
nuo__I asked a qs any answer when i got disconnected ?17:46
staticsn0wi just formatted17:46
m3n3chm0staticsn0w you don't have to do nothing... just extend as jadi said17:46
staticsn0wthat was quick17:46
staticsn0wok17:46
m3n3chm0user gparted17:46
nuo__How much time does it take to upgrade to 15.10 , and can i run other applications when am upgrading ??17:47
m3n3chm0nuo i upgraded recentrly to 15.10 it taken about 4 hours...17:47
jadinuo__, time highly depends on your net and disk speed. on a fast connection and ssd disks, a couple of hours I guess.17:47
emmanuelI have a question about ubuntu17:47
staticsn0wguys17:47
staticsn0wi cant resize my ubuntu ext4 partition17:48
daftykinsstaticsn0w: please reduce the enter presses.17:48
staticsn0wsorry,17:48
emmanuelthis room is more active than its namesake in Spanish17:48
m3n3chm0staticsn0w take a screenshot.... from gparted17:48
staticsn0wjust did17:48
nuo__m3n3chm0 ; so i would better  just leave the computer still untill it finishes upgrading17:49
staticsn0whttps://www.filepicker.io/api/file/la3BwcpESyeIVaaslx2G17:49
m3n3chm0nuo__ when it's upgrading better don't touch it :)17:49
Bashing-omemmanuel: If you are comfortable with the English language, ask your question here .17:49
nuo__m3n3chm0 : yea thanks : )17:50
jadinuo__, time highly depends on your net and disk speed. on a fast connection and ssd disks, a couple of hours I guess.17:50
staticsn0wjadi wouldnt i just delete my windows partition all together? and then resize my ubuntu ext4 partition?17:50
nuo__jadi : yes i see , thanks !17:50
emmanuelthank you very much for that good dispocision17:50
staticsn0wnot format?17:51
emmanuel:D17:51
staticsn0wshould i try that jadi?17:51
emmanuelI wonder if anyone has had a problem with the screen tearing in ubuntu 14.04 ?17:51
Grimm_emmanuel: what do you mean by tearing?17:52
emmanuelie the tearing of the screen both wb reading a page as to watch videos17:53
jadistaticsn0w, as much as I know if they are not "near" each other (say sda5 and sda6) you can not extend.17:53
jadistaticsn0w, in your scren shot, which one is the deleted windows? sda5?17:53
jadistaticsn0w, oh.. that should be sda2 . I'm not sure if you can add it to ext4. cehck the menus and see if you can find anything in the menus or right click (say merge). and take backups!17:53
staticsn0wsda217:53
staticsn0wand my ubuntu partition is sda317:54
jadiemmanuel, have you tried "additional drivers" from the menu?17:54
Grimm_emmanuel: can you take a screen shot of it?17:54
staticsn0wjadi if i make the partition just "free storage" couldnt i just extend my ubuntu partition>17:54
jadistaticsn0w, your linux is sda5. sda3 is an extended partition which contain two other partitons17:54
staticsn0wjadi yep17:55
jadistaticsn0w, I dont think so because they are not connected to each other. I may be wrong. try it.17:55
staticsn0wthey are the same hdd17:55
staticsn0wjust btw17:55
staticsn0wssd*17:55
jadistaticsn0w, try deleting the sda5 and see if you can add the space to sda317:56
staticsn0wok17:56
jadistaticsn0w, sorry... sda2!17:56
staticsn0wyeah ik17:56
staticsn0whttps://www.filepicker.io/api/file/v4k1qz3tToKzHROOYC7g how do i do this?17:57
staticsn0wso confused Dx17:57
staticsn0wand i really dont want to brick my laptop :c17:57
jadistaticsn0w, it seems you can not do it this way :( try and see if you can extend the sda317:58
staticsn0wok17:58
staticsn0wnope17:58
jadistaticsn0w, when touching partions there is always risk of data corruption. you have to have backup from important files17:58
staticsn0woption is greyed out17:58
staticsn0wjadi i dont care about my win stuff17:58
staticsn0wonly ubuntu17:58
jadistaticsn0w, it is only 10GB partition. copy the important stuff to a usb disk and reinstall the ubuntu :)17:58
staticsn0wer17:59
staticsn0wi can reinstall everything17:59
staticsn0wi installed it last night17:59
jadistaticsn0w, sorry. I do not have more ideas on how to do this.17:59
staticsn0whaha17:59
staticsn0wbut do i format my ext4 partition? or linux swap? or nothing?17:59
akikstaticsn0w: if you have nothing to save, just remove all the partitions and start up the ubuntu install18:00
staticsn0wok18:00
jadistaticsn0w, when installing you have the option to format everything and let the installer decide what to do (install on the whole hard disk)18:00
staticsn0wi should mke sure my live usb is working18:00
staticsn0wok18:00
jadistaticsn0w, sure! test that first and then start the process. good luck!18:00
MattHoltso i'm on lubuntu 14.04 lts and it seems the display is sleeping after i leave the system idle. i come back to the computer and the display refuses to wake up no matter what i do18:03
MattHoltthe gpu is an nvidia geforce 21018:04
staticsn0wfuckin hell18:05
staticsn0wthe file manager wont show my flashdrive18:06
utu8oMattHolt, did you restart?18:06
MattHoltstaticsn0w please try to keep your language friendly.18:06
MattHoltutu8o i have no choice. with no display i have to cold reboot18:06
MattHolti can't see the screen18:06
staticsn0wMattHolt sorry18:06
utu8olubuntu is a good distro, but it is kinda buggy and lacks features18:07
jadistaticsn0w, no problem. in worst case you can download a new ubuntu iso and dd it to the usb disk18:07
staticsn0wdd?18:07
jadiany method you use is fine. I use dd command on command line18:07
MattHoltutu8o well, this is a fairly old gpu, and besides, i'm using the proprietary closed-source nvidia drivers18:07
utu8oi have lubuntu running on a netbook and usually have 100 tabs in firefox if no script is turned on18:07
MattHoltutu8o so the behavior is odd18:08
jadithat is "sudo dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4096" **if you only have 1 hard drive and sdb is your usb disk**18:08
staticsn0wok18:08
staticsn0wcool18:08
OerHeksafter dd, sync18:08
staticsn0wshould i do 15.10 or 14.04.3?18:08
jadiOerHeks, thank. sure. staticsn0w : as OerHeks says, you have to do a "sudo sync" after the dd and wait for it to finish18:09
utu8ostaticsn0w, so you want to reinstall in 6 months?18:09
staticsn0wjadi ok18:09
jadistaticsn0w, depends on your needs. 15.10 is the newer one but 14.04 is the older more stable one. I would go with 15.1018:09
staticsn0wutu8o id rather not18:09
utu8othen 14.0418:09
staticsn0w15.10 becuase i like newest features18:10
OerHeksno need to reinstall, 15.10 will perfectly upgrade to 16.04 lts18:10
bekksstaticsn0w: And you like to have less support.18:10
staticsn0wbekks meh, whatever18:10
utu8ostaticsn0w, if you install the newest Linux Mint which is based on 15.10 it will be supported for 3 years18:10
staticsn0wbut i like ubuntu better18:10
MattHoltutu8o that's off topic here18:10
staticsn0w"linux for humans"18:10
bekksutu8o: If you are using Linux Mint, you have 0 seconds of support in here.18:11
staticsn0whahahaha18:11
utu8obekks, most people on here a running Mint :P18:11
staticsn0wugh my internet is being stupid18:11
staticsn0wand slow18:11
MattHoltutu8o they run a whole host of distros, doesn't make it on-topic here18:11
bekksutu8o: Which can safely be considered as FUD an being entirely offtopic.18:12
audia5hey guys i downloaded ubuntu.iso i think its live version , i dont have a cd i have usb stick can i burn this ubuntu.iso to usb stick and start from there18:12
MattHoltaudia5 yes, if on linux, use dd18:12
bekksaudia5: Which version of Ubuntu did you download?18:12
jadiaudia5, yes sure.18:12
audia5ubuntu 13.10 desktop.iso18:13
staticsn0wso does dd format or burn the iso?18:13
MattHolto.018:13
utu8oaudia5, it can even run on an SDcard18:13
bekksstaticsn0w: Neither nor.18:13
bekksstaticsn0w: dd is a tool for transferring data.18:13
daftykinsaudia5: don't run 13.10, that's EOL.18:13
wakeatnightwhy after creating a ln -s symlink the link says "no such file or directory" when trying to run it?18:13
jadiaudia5, if you only have one hard disk in your device (so the sdb is your usb disk) try "sudo dd if=your_ubuntu_iso_name.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4096; sudo sync "18:13
utu8oaudia5, 14.04 version?18:13
MattHoltstaticsn0w the iso itself is left untouched, what it does is create a single partition in the usb flashdrive and makes it bootable18:13
daftykinswakeatnight: wrong perms18:13
bekks!13.10 | audia518:13
ubottuaudia5: Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) was the 19th release of Ubuntu. Support ended on July 17th, 2014. See !eol, !upgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/saucy18:13
audia5jadi iam on windows now18:13
staticsn0wMattHolt that makes more sense, thanks!18:13
wakeatnightdaftykins: which ones do they need?18:14
audia5iam not on ubuntu to  do that dd if18:14
audia5how can i burn this iso file to usb18:14
bekksaudia5: Then use rufus.18:14
daftykinswakeatnight: well tell us what you symlink'd first...18:14
jadiaudia5, you will be on ubuntu soon :) try this link http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows18:14
MattHoltaudia5 rufus and unetbootin are two options worth exploring18:14
staticsn0wim gonna use 14.04.3 actually cause its smaller18:15
wakeatnightdaftykins: it's a python program residing on my internal ntfs drive symlinked into home folder18:15
wakeatnightgnome 3 mount18:15
=== coy is now known as Guest58237
daftykinswakeatnight: and what perms does it have right now, and how did you try to run it?18:15
audia5yes i think rufus is okish i used it some years ago18:15
MattHoltso i'm on lubuntu 14.04 lts and it seems the display is sleeping after i leave the system idle. i come back to the computer and the display refuses to wake up no matter what i do18:15

wakeatnightyep18:17
Hinnerkhi, i'm back :)18:17
HinnerkDuring installation I get the following message (in german, but I'll translate as best as I can): busybox-initramfs can not be installed. While trying to install the package busybox-initramfs on the target system, an error occured. See in /var/log/syslog or on the fourth virtual console concering detailed information (back) (proceed). What to do?18:17
daftykinsi'm not too up on python, i'd expect the program to need to be called with the file for it to run.18:17
wakeatnightyou can set in the file so that you dont need "python program.py"18:17
daftykinshmm, ah well beyond me18:18
utu8oHinnerk, what are you using USB, CD.. etc?18:18
wakeatnightok :)18:18
HinnerkI mounted an iso image. I'm using IPMI.18:19
Hinnerkcould the error relate to my partioning which I just finished?18:19
staticsn0wjadi so how do i use dd again?18:19
akikwakeatnight: a symlink from ext3/ext4 to ntfs ?18:19
wakeatnightakik: well the otehr way round18:20
wakeatnightbut yeah :)18:20
utu8oHinnerk, i think i got that error before you have to make the device bootable not just mount it18:20
akikwakeatnight: you know that windows uses a different line ending than linux? \r\n instead of \n18:20
wakeatnightoh18:20
Hinnerkutu8o that sounds like an explanation.18:21
akikwakeatnight: the first line of your .py file should tell you where your python binary is18:21
staticsn0wuhhh18:21
utu8oset up the MBR18:21
staticsn0wi think im screwed18:21
staticsn0wmy terminl isnt working18:21
wakeatnightah thank you18:22
staticsn0wwhen i type in a command it goes to a blank line and stays there18:22
akikwakeatnight: i would be wary of crossing different file systems with sym links though18:22
audia5guys the file is ubuntu.iso bu when i see on download is rar file do i need to extract it or just burn as is18:22
utu8oHinnerk, if you are using gparted there is an option there to set the MBR, and if it is dual boot use boot repair to fix it... i'm not sure tho i'm not an expert18:22
SchrodingersScatstaticsn0w: dd gives no output until complete unless you run something along with it, is that what's happening?18:23
staticsn0wlet me see if dh -f works18:23
MattHoltso i'm on lubuntu 14.04 lts and it seems the display is sleeping after i leave the system idle. i come back to the computer and the display refuses to wake up no matter what i do18:23
utu8oHinnerk, usually if you use a USB the app makes the image bootable, like Unetbootin18:23
MattHoltthe gpu is an nvidia geforce 21018:23
staticsn0wof good18:24
staticsn0wmy terminal is fine18:24
staticsn0wso how would i type in the dd cmd?18:24
Hinnerkutu8o: I did manual partitioning, with raid1 and lvm.18:25
staticsn0wi think i know why my flashdrive wont show up18:25
DexterFhi18:25
HinnerkI created three physcial volumes for raid on each hdd, the first for boot. I created the raid1 for this pair (and for the others as well) and have formatted it with ext4 and mounted boot. However, I could never switch on the boot flag. Where can I change this?18:25
staticsn0wi think i actually broke the write chip thingy18:26
DexterFwhat's by best shot at skype currently? empathy wont work, internal error, pidgin wont connect without any error msg at all, the native skype app from canonical partner on 15.04 does not work, has a missing dependency on libGL.so.1 and I cant figute out what package Im missing18:27
staticsn0wand somehow my win partition remade itself in to ntfs18:28
utu8oDexterF, maybe try Jitsi, or Linephone or something18:28
utu8oLinphone*18:28

staticsn0wEriC^^ i downloaded the iso again on my ubuntu partition18:45
EriC^^staticsn0w: you can make the windows partition as a separate /home partition, i have an idea18:45
akikstaticsn0w: the solution is to delete all the partitions (if you have nothing to save on them)18:45
EriC^^staticsn0w: it's ok, i've an idea18:45
staticsn0wEriC^^ whatever it is tell me18:46
staticsn0wim up for anything if it means more space18:46
EriC^^staticsn0w: you can delete the windows partitions, and make them a separate /home partition, and a swap, and you delete the swap , and merge the root "/" with it, so you end up with an acceptable 17gb "/"18:46

RAID1 I definitely want.  But I have to say, guides in this area are a bit confusing, as they often only cover parts of the problem. And then there are issues with the boot sections - e.g. here it says that the issue may...19:40
Hinnerk...be related to large hdds: http://stackful-dev.com/raid-install-ubuntu-server-on-a-large-hard-drive.html  - but I can'T do the solution, I guess maybe the ubuntu installer has changed again since that solution?19:40

ubottumotaka2: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

bekksyou need to script that yourself.20:52
Bray90820Can someone help me then20:53
poolqhttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/2960022/shell-script-to-count-files-then-remove-oldest-files20:54
Mr_CyclopsBray90820, Shoot your question20:54
Bray90820When the drive gets full I want the oldest backup to be deleted20:54
Kardosperhaps poolq's link ha sthe answer, it looks promising20:55
Mr_Cyclopswhen you say backup, do you mean any particular kind of files?20:55
Mr_Cyclopsany regular filename pattern?20:55
MonkeyDustBray90820  maybe the people in #bash can help better with scripting20:55
Bray90820Is this a bash specific because they will refuse to help me if it's not20:56
Kardosso pick the channel for your shell?20:56
Mr_CyclopsI agree MonkeyDust . You can have a simple cron with a simple find and purge command to get rid of old files20:56
Hinnerkok, thanks everyone for now, will be back later.20:57
Mr_Cyclopsno harm in trying Bray90820 ... I suggest try the bash channel20:57
Casper-Hello, how do u creae a second quotation-mark, when u are typing.  Like OSX does?20:57
Casper-i mean make it do it automatically, when u press:   "20:57
k1lCasper-: typing where?20:58
Casper-k1l: i think OSX does it everywhere, at least in the text editor21:01
Casper-k1l: it just places a second  "   after ur cursor, when u type the first  "21:02

TJ-Casper-: do you have bash readline in 'vi' mode, or 'emacs' (the default) ?21:50
adrian_1908hello. The notebook I'm using cannot find a USB stick in pure UEFI mode, I have to activate Legacy mode to see it in the boot menu. Is this to be expected? (I used dd to copy the iso)21:50
Casper-TJ-: default i guess, i never changed it, i dont even know how :)21:50
EriC^^adrian_1908: no, dd works with both for ubuntu .iso's21:51
Casper-TJ-:  sounds like i should:    Remove -m vi-insert ?21:51
k1lCasper-: read the text :)21:51
adrian_1908EriC^^: Any ideas if/how I might circumvent this? I will just install in legacy BIOS mode otherwise, I just has hoped to use UEFI if possible.21:53
TJ-Casper-: switch to vi mode: "set -o vi" and test - it'll work21:53
EriC^^adrian_1908: make sure the usb is first in the boot order, disable secureboot, and if that doesn't work try pressing esc and see if you have boot options to get a uefi menu and choose UEFI USB21:54
adrian_1908The BIOS menu offers very limited options so I don't think there's something I can fix on that side.21:54
adrian_1908EriC^^: I'll try the last, so I need to know a certain terminology to boot it?21:54
EriC^^adrian_1908: did you disable secureboot?21:54
Casper-k1l: TJ-  got it to work by  Remove -m vi-insert ! cool. thx.  which mode do u guys use?  vi or emacs?21:55
adrian_1908checking, one moment...21:55
Casper-i use Gedit for Text editor, thats what i was trying to do the magic quotes for :)21:55
TJ-Casper-: I used to use the default e emacs but as I use vim for editing, I switched. Still g getting used to it though :)21:55
TJ-muscle memory can be very frustrating with the different editors21:56
Casper-TJ-: thats why stick with Gedit  :)21:57
Casper-no memory needed  :P21:57
Casper-hey, what is the Terminal command to paste the "middle mouse button clipboard"?21:57

imthenachomanhey guys. any recommendations on a good cpu stress program for linux? i think my system freezes on high usage and want to test with some kind of stressing software21:59
EriC^^Casper-: shift+insert21:59
adrian_1908EriC^^: I just realized that what I assumed to be UEFI/Legacy BIOS appears to only relate to USB devices; I think this notebook has no UEFI support. It's not mine.21:59
k1lctrl+(shift+)v isnt working?21:59
k1lthen try ctrl+ins21:59
EriC^^adrian_1908: if it says uefi/legacy for usb i guess it has uefi22:00

noncom|2today suddenly my ubuntu server becomes very slow, sometime restarts itself and such. it started suddenly. when it's up and runninng, it is slow, and syslog writes down that ufw blocks some periodic incomming connections from some ips. can it be that the connections are the reason for the server being slower?22:01
adrian_1908EriC^^: It says something like USB Legacy BIOS, and it's about USB device recognition, I should have taken the time to read it more carefully. On my own desktop the "Legacy" toggle is indeed about UEFI. My mistake.22:02
Casper-EriC^^: doesnt work, that works for u?22:02
k1lnoncom|2: ddos attack? try fail2ban then22:02
EriC^^Casper-: yeah22:02
Casper-neither works,  hmmmm, can u bind a key-combo, to the middle mouse button?22:04
EriC^^Casper-: yeah, xbindkeys22:05
EriC^^Casper-: shift+insert should work though,22:05
EriC^^Casper-: does ctrl+v work?22:05

eperzhandI've edited /etc/pam.d/login and passwd - but no luck22:07
EriC^^Casper-: yeah, i know22:07
Casper-but how to u paste the second clipboard without the mouse22:07
EriC^^did you try what k1l suggested? ctrl+insert?22:07
EriC^^Casper-: which de are you using btw?22:07
eperzhandEriC, shift-insert?22:07
Casper-EriC^^: hmmm, maybe shift+insert is not working,  cuz my INSERT key is combined with my  0  key22:08
eperzhandctrl-insert is for copying22:08
iBurleyHey guys. Anybody know if it's safe to install the proprietary AMD drivers in 15.10 yet?22:08
EriC^^eperzhand: ah i see22:08
EriC^^Casper-: yeah that'd be it..22:09
Casper-so when i press  shift+insert,  it types a 022:09
eperzhandCasper, try to turn off numlock22:09
Casper-i did turn off numlock22:09
eperzhandCasper-, try press fn22:09
Casper-i press insert, and it changes the cursor to Insert mode, so i know its workin22:10
k1lCasper-: what hardware is that? what ubuntu and what desktop?22:10
Casper-asus laptop22:10
k1land is it a terminal? or tty?22:10
Casper-i'm trying both Terminal, and Gedit,   same problem22:10
Loshkinoncom|2: start by running top I suppose. Unless you're being absolutely blitzed by packet storms, I wouldn't think it would be noticeable. Is it an LTS? Maybe your server is compromised?22:10
k1lCasper-: which desktop?22:11
noncom|2Loshki: htop shows 1.5-5% load on CPU while there's compilation in progress!22:11

iBurleyHey guys. Anybody know if it's safe to install the proprietary AMD drivers in 15.10 yet?22:13
noncom|2what puzzles, me, the compilation always used to take more than 50% of CPU22:13
bekksnoncom|2: And why does that puzzle you?22:13
k1lCasper-: what desktop enviroment do you run on that ubuntu install?22:13
noncom|2bekks: because now it is dead slow and htop shows only ~5% load max22:13
EriC^^Casper-: unity xubuntu etc22:13
Casper-oh, sorry, i thought u meant not my laptop,  yes XFCE22:13
bekksnoncom|2: so pastebin "free -m" please.22:14
noncom|2bekks: but the syslog tail always shows UFW blocks conns22:14
noncom|2bekks: https://www.refheap.com/11242222:14
noncom|2how can compilation take 5% of CPU max../22:15
noncom|2there's nothing else running on the pc22:15
Casper-i would use Unity if u could put the bar at the bottom  :P22:16
noncom|2why would anyone ddos? that's a very insignificant personal server...22:16
noncom|2bekks: does the free -m paste tell you something?22:17
Casper-i think on my laptop the SHIFT, is acting like a Function key.  that would explain it,  it does the same thing for the other shared keys, (end, home, pgup, pgdown,):   it reverts back to the number22:18
Casper-k1l: EriC^^  what desktop environments do u guys use?22:19
noncom|2k1l: looking at fail2ban, it's a program, but it requires studying a huge manual to understand what and how it does.. it seems interesting, i will definitely study it, but the problems are there right *now*..22:20
EriC^^Casper-: i use unity22:20
Casper-EriC^^: is there any way to put the bar at the bottom?22:21
EriC^^Casper-: i dont think so22:21
Casper-i guess that is fine for OSX refugees, it's copied off that22:22
noncom|2yeah, well, meanwhikle reading fail2ban man22:23
Hinnerkquestion about ubuntu installer and gparted: If I create a partition table with gparted of type gpt and create 4 volumes there (grub_boot, boot, swap and one for lvm), then stop and go back to ubuntu installer to do manual partioning for lvm and mounting filesystems - will the ubuntu installer respect the gpt table or will it overwrite it with its own type?22:23
Casper-is there a simple program like GTKHASH that does better key-stretching (bcrypt, PBKDF2, etc)?22:23
k1lCasper-: EriC^^ seems like GTK is blocking the x11 clipboard keycombo shuft+insert22:24

noncom|2yes22:25
noncom|2VDS22:25
Ben64your provider might have some limiting thing on the cpu22:25
Casper-k1l: but GTK is in unity too. so what do u mean?22:25
bekksnoncom|2: A VPS can be very slow for no reason visible inside the VPS.22:25
noncom|2Ben64: you mean that i might have possibly exceeded cpu limit for the period?22:25
noncom|2bekks: is it a common occasion?22:26
noncom|2did not see it in a couple of months that i had this server22:26
bekksnoncom|2: It may happen, so you have to talk to your hoster.22:26

adrian_1908I see a lot of advice to disable services in Ubuntu via update.rc... I thought current Ubuntu versions use systemd, no?23:30
IngCr3at1onnot last I checked23:31
IngCr3at1onif it were I'd think systemctl would be present ;)23:31
k1l_adrian_1908: systemd is the init since 15.04. before it was upstart. the question is what your howto refers to23:33
adrian_1908Hmm, systemd appears to be running here on my Xubuntu 15.10. I would't expect the distro to diverge this much from vanilla Ubuntu.23:33
k1l_adrian_1908: actually that is plain vanilla then :)23:35
adrian_1908k1l_: The answer is an askubuntu one from this November and I see no (older) release version mentioned, that's why I had sudden doubts about what's usually running :)23:35
adrian_1908ah my bad, it mentions that.23:36
k1l_adrian_1908: there are still 12.04 and 14.04 supported which run upstart.23:36
IngCr3at1onaye I can confirm 14.04 is definitely upstart23:36
adrian_1908The answered qualifies it as "if you're not running systemd", I missed that.23:36
adrian_1908problem solved then.23:36
IngCr3at1onwas aware they'd switched to systemd for 15.y23:37
k1l_yeah paying attention to the ubuntu version used is more important then ever :)23:37
IngCr3at1onwasn't*23:37

tsimonq2ok, thanks23:48
adrian_1908Alright guys, fixed my problem. The "ondemand" service on that notebook was scaling down the CPU frequency too aggressively, making it unusable. The accepted answer here worked (http://askubuntu.com/questions/523640/how-i-can-disable-cpu-frequency-scaling-and-set-the-system-to-performance), smooth as butter now, even when unplugged. Not ideal, but better than nothing. And yes, systemd it is on 15.10 :)23:49
helloitsmeand sorry it's in french but i think you will understand :)23:49
IngCr3at1onunless the ubuntu installer resizes windows partitions which I don't believe it does helloitsme that's your problem23:49
IngCr3at1onyou could try manually resizing the main windows partition using something like gparted via a live iso but ntfs and resizing has never been extremely stable so I'd say "use at your own risk" ;)23:50
helloitsmei tried the "something else" option but it is refusing to create other primary partitions23:50
helloitsmeit says "max 4 primary partition" if i remember well23:50
IngCr3at1onright but you need unpartitioned space to do that helloitsme23:51
k1l_helloitsme: so it seems there are 4 main partitions already (windows is rubbish on showing them)23:51
IngCr3at1onor k1l_ it's just the 3 but there's no unpartitioned space to add the 4th to23:51
IngCr3at1on(most likely imho)23:51
IngCr3at1onbut I agree windows is terribad at showing that23:51
IngCr3at1onbest to use gparted on a live iso imho23:51
k1l_IngCr3at1on: in that case it would say to shrink windows23:52
IngCr3at1onaye that's waht I was saying a moment ago23:52
IngCr3at1onwhich again, gparted could do but as I mentioned ntfs and resizing is a little meh sometimes23:52
IngCr3at1onhence my comment about "use at your own risk"23:52
k1l_use windows to shrink the windows. then boot live ubuntu and delete one unused partition, like a recovery one or such23:53
IngCr3at1onit's been awhile since I personally used any of those tools lol. for my laptop I nuked windows entirely and my desktop is arch over zfs root23:53
helloitsmei already tried the shrink option23:53
IngCr3at1on(incidentally I wouldn't recommend the latter, it's handy but it's also a bitch lol)23:53
helloitsmecreating a free space23:54
IngCr3at1onthe windows shrink option is worse than gparteds last I used it23:54
helloitsmeit doesn't work i have the same problem23:54
k1l_let windows shrink windows.23:54
IngCr3at1onthough I can't speak for the windows 10 version23:54
IngCr3at1onbut you should be able to actually resize it to your own size via either tool23:54
helloitsmeit's windows 10 the problem23:55
k1l_helloitsme: either kill one partition or get another disk.23:55
IngCr3at1onso it wouldn't be part of the "freeing up space" stuff23:55
k1l_but let windows shrink windows for making more space. but you need to kil one partition anyway since you cant have more than 4 prim partitions.23:55
helloitsmekill which one23:55
IngCr3at1ononly option is the recovery partition23:56
IngCr3at1onwhich means you'd lose the option to restore to factory defaults23:56
IngCr3at1onyou can't nuke the system reserve or the system partition itself ;)23:56
k1l_helloitsme: i dont know. boot a live uubuntu to see the real partiiton table23:56
IngCr3at1on^23:56
JeffPoohello room hope im not butting in here but i have a question im running xfce and im seeing screen tearing in youtube videos. i looked it up and found post saying to uncheck "enable display compositing" ive done that but i am still getting screan tearing. any sugestions? thanks23:56
helloitsmei'll use gparted to see more details23:56
IngCr3at1onman... I really don't want to redo my OS on my laptop....23:57
IngCr3at1onbut I'm not sure how else to fix this damn pixelation23:57
gambl0redoes redhat and ubuntu share the same terminal commands?23:58
IngCr3at1onto an extent23:58
IngCr3at1onbash is the same at least23:58
IngCr3at1onbut as for system binaries no23:58
IngCr3at1onrpm has quite a few different binaries vs debian gambl0re23:58
gambl0rei mean like cp, mv, ls, touch, cat etc...23:58
IngCr3at1onthough most can be installed23:58
gambl0rebasic stuff23:58
IngCr3at1onaye23:59
IngCr3at1onthat's all the same yes23:59
IngCr3at1onthose are standard unix commands iirc23:59
k1l_gambl0re: that are the coreutils23:59
IngCr3at1oneven work on apple ;)23:59
IngCr3at1onwell at least most of them23:59
