| Diegosi | Is it just as good to use Ubuntu on Chrome OS using crouton? | 00:02 |
| Bashing-om | samsamsam: All I see is " 72651448 home " which is huge . start backing up files out of /home and free up that disk space . delete all that you no longer need . | 00:03 |
| samsamsam | @Bashing-om Thanks. Will do that | 00:03 |

| TJ- | samsamsam: Bashing-om "11 gigs not counted" - possible explanation: file-system has run out of inodes | 00:12 |
| TJ- | Ender_Wiggin: when/where do you see "networking disabled" ? | 00:13 |
| samsamsam | @Bashing-om I deleted a lot of files now. it shows /dev/sda5 82G 42G 36G 55% /. Still quite a few gigs unaccounted for. | 00:14 |
| Bashing-om | TJ-: Thenks, will mark that one down ! .. samsamsam : waht returns ' df -i ' ? | 00:14 |
| TJ- | samsamsam: Bashing-om also, in the 'du' output, there's "System Volume Information" directory, which suggests thats NTFS/FAT not a regular Linux FS | 00:14 |
| samsamsam | @Bashing-om /dev/sda5 5439488 491638 4947850 10% / | 00:15 |
| Bashing-om | samsamsam: TJ- .. in that output is the 5% for 'root' accounted for ? | 00:16 |
| samsamsam | @Bashing-om http://pastebin.com/11h5PQAd | 00:16 |
| TJ- | Bashing-om: samsamsam the 'reserved space' is, if I recall correctly, accounted for in the 'df' reports, so the Avail/Used columns have adjusted for it | 00:17 |
| TJ- | samsamsam: what does "sudo blkid /dev/sda5" report ? | 00:18 |
| tx | I need to blacklist a module from one device, but not another. | 00:18 |
| tx | they are exactly the same piece of hardware, so it needs to be done using PCI address. | 00:18 |
| samsamsam | @TJ- /dev/sda5: UUID="54bc01ff-f7ef-4f42-8f8f-2390714d2376" TYPE="ext4" | 00:18 |
| TJ- | tx: you'd need to disable the PCI device you don't want, first, else the modules probe() function will find and register it | 00:19 |
| TJ- | samsamsam: oh, surprising. I wonder why it has NTFS file-system structures on it | 00:19 |
| tx | TJ-, I want to pass the device thru to a VM via VFIO | 00:19 |
| TJ- | samsamsam: but good, I was fearing it wasn't ext* | 00:20 |
| tx | nvidia grabs on to it and marks the device as 'in use' so I can not unbind it. | 00:20 |
| TJ- | tx: modules don't have a facility to ignore selected devices, unfortunately. | 00:20 |
| tx | hmm, I will attempt to kill X and see if I can unbind it then. | 00:21 |
| tx | perhaps it will no longer be in use, but I doubt it. | 00:21 |
| TJ- | samsamsam: if you install the 'ncdu' package and run, from a terminal, "ncdu /home" you get an easy to navigate view of the file-system usage below that directory. | 00:21 |

| tx | Ooh, I wonder if I can leverage Optimus / Bumblebee to 'disable' the card | 00:25 |
| Ender_Wiggin | ahh crap thanks | 00:25 |
| SlidingHorn | no problem...happens to the best of us :) | 00:26 |
| Ender_Wiggin | SlidingHorn you talkin bout someone sugestiong i goto ##networking? | 00:26 |
| Ender_Wiggin | trying on both channels =P | 00:26 |
| SlidingHorn | Ender_Wiggin: also, just something that might help...give this script a try so that people can have more info on what you're working with http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=370108 -- No, TJ- was asking when/where exactly you saw "networking disabled" | 00:27 |
| TJ- | tx: did you already try using the sysfs unbind interface? | 00:28 |
| Graf_Z4hl | format c: doesn't work :( | 00:28 |
| tx | yes | 00:28 |
| Ender_Wiggin | ah ty | 00:28 |
| tx | TJ-, kernel complains that it's tainted and spews out a stacktrace | 00:28 |
| TJ- | tx: ahhh of course, you're using the proprietary driver? | 00:28 |
| tx | I think I have a solution though, why don't I just load the nvidia module LATER, after I have stolen the card. | 00:28 |
| tx | yes | 00:29 |
| TJ- | tx: yes, I was going to suggest that earlier. add the module to the standard blacklist, but have a script the modprobes later | 00:29 |
| tx | yup | 00:29 |
| tx | but without any module for them, will I get no FB output? | 00:29 |
| tx | (noveau is also disabled) | 00:29 |
| tx | or will it fall back to some primitive VESA output? :p | 00:30 |
| TJ- | you should be able to use a FB driver, maybe the vesafb | 00:30 |
| TJ- | tx: have you checked the nvidia driver parms in case it has one to control this ? | 00:30 |
| tx | Not in detail, will do just now before I commit to this solution. | 00:30 |
| TJ- | tx: e.g: "modinfo -F parm nvidia-340" | 00:32 |
| tx | NVreg_AssignGpus="PCI_address" looks promising | 00:32 |
| Ender_Wiggin | SlidingHorn sadly i cannot run update because i have no internet connection | 00:32 |
| TJ- | tx: right, I'd check the HTML appendix for info | 00:32 |
| tx | Yup, checking it out on their site. | 00:32 |
| OldDenverGeek | hi, im on 1404, using Gnome Metacity and I don't see under Applications the Programming menu.. how do I get it in there? | 00:32 |
| TJ- | tx: the FAQ gives the example modprobe nvidia0 NVreg_AssignGpus="0:01:00.0,0:02:00.0" | 00:33 |
| tx | Indeed. | 00:33 |
| tx | can I pass these on boot using grub? | 00:33 |
| tx | (in the cmdline option) | 00:33 |
| tx | or do I need to specify in /etc/modules (or similar) | 00:34 |
| TJ- | tx: no, but you can set it in a /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-vtd.conf files with "options nvidia NVreg_AssignGpus="0:01:00.0,0:02:00.0" " | 00:35 |
| TJ- | tx: obviously, use the correct module-name in place of 'nvidia' there, to make it match | 00:35 |
| tx | fabulous | 00:35 |
| TJ- | tx: I'd guess Nvidia added that specifically for supporting CUDA | 00:36 |
| tx | I shall return with news. | 00:36 |
| tx | Well, this is promising. Nvidia-settings no longer lists the device. | 00:39 |
| tx | Let us try binding it to VFIO. | 00:39 |
| tx | TJ-, Success! You are a gem. | 00:40 |
| Gallomimia | for some reason my system doesn't have nvidia settings installed. it removed it. | 00:40 |

| senatormeow | xinput lists it as ELAN1000:00 04F3:0401 | 00:44 |
| anabain | TJ, yes | 00:45 |
| anabain | TJ-, yes | 00:45 |
| TJ- | anabain: have you used "ssh -vvv ..." to connect and get debug output | 00:45 |
| anabain | no, I'll try | 00:45 |
| TJ- | anabain: and, on the server, have you checked "/var/log/auth.log". You may need to increase the sshd log verbosity too | 00:46 |
| SlidingHorn | OldDenverGeek: well, if you don't see anything under Applications > System Tools > Application Menu Editor, then you can always install alacarte, which will help you to do the job | 00:46 |
| anabain | ok, TJ- | 00:47 |
| TJ- | anabain: you may want "LogLevel DEBUG3" in /etc/ssh/sshd_config for the testing | 00:49 |
| anabain | TJ-, that's from ssh -vvv http://paste.ubuntu.com/13948650/ | 00:54 |
| OldDenverGeek | SlidingHorn: I just checked and under Applications > System Tools > there is no application menu editor.. | 00:54 |
| SlidingHorn | OldDenverGeek: ok...let's try installing alacarte then: sudo apt-get install alacarte | 00:55 |
| anabain | TJ-, local is 15.10, remote 14.04 | 00:55 |
| OldDenverGeek | SlidingHorn: already installed | 00:55 |
| SlidingHorn | okay, then from your terminal: alacarte | 00:56 |
| SlidingHorn | OldDenverGeek: (from there, I'd also add alacarte, itself, to your menu, just so you don't have to get it from command line) | 00:57 |
| TJ- | anabain: it doesn't look like a ciphers issue. At least, the initial server key exchange is OK. lines 90-93 seem to indicate the server-side doesn't have the pub-key | 00:58 |
| TJ- | anabain: is the 'server' side user's home directory encrypted? | 00:58 |
| OldDenverGeek | SlidingHorn: so do I have to do a new item for alacarte? I want to add idle for python as well | 00:58 |
| SlidingHorn | OldDenverGeek: from this point, you can create entries for whatever you'd like :) | 00:58 |
| anabain | TJ-, I don't think so, how can I check it? | 00:59 |
| OldDenverGeek | SlidingHorn: right on!! thanks! | 00:59 |
| TJ- | anabain: if on the system it has /home/.ecryptfs/$USER/ directory | 01:00 |
| === nya is now known as Guest4463 | ||
| OldDenverGeek | later | 01:01 |
| anabain | TJ-, no, there's only the ordinary user's dir | 01:02 |
| TJ- | anabain: OK, and does the user's $HOME/.ssh/ directory have protective permissions? | 01:02 |
| anabain | TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13948875/ | 01:03 |
| TJ- | anabain: "ll -an $HOME/.ssh/" should start off something like "drwx------ 2 1000 1000 4096 Dec 6 10:20 ./" | 01:03 |
| TJ- | anabain: and the public key that was copied should be found in "-rw------- 1 1000 1000 400 Mar 7 2013 authorized_keys" | 01:04 |
| anabain | TJ-, yes, I think that's ok | 01:04 |
| TJ- | anabain: you'll need to do what I recommended on the server, with increasing LogLevel and restarting the ssh service, then trying a connection and checking /var/log/auth.log | 01:06 |
| anabain | ok | 01:06 |
| anabain | TJ-, I'm a stupid, this is the 'server's' .ssh dir: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13949024/ | 01:11 |
| TJ- | anabain: right, so the sshd might be refusing to use it since access is available for group and others "drwxrwxrwx" | 01:12 |
| TJ- | anabain: on the server "chmod go-rwx $HOME/.ssh" | 01:12 |
| anabain | ok | 01:12 |
| TJ- | anabain: then you should see that the .ssh/ directory has drwx------ | 01:13 |
| anabain | yes, that's fine now. Do I need to restart the server? | 01:13 |
| TJ- | anabain: then you should do "chmod go-r $HOME/.ssh/*" | 01:13 |
| TJ- | anabain: no, restart shouldn't be needed; I'd expect the client to connect now | 01:14 |
| anabain | TJ-, no success, it keeps asking for the password | 01:15 |
| TJ- | anabain: OK, add the "LogLevel DEBUG3" to the server's /etc/shh/sshd_config, then restart the service ("sudo service ssh restart") and try again, then check the server's /var/log/auth.log | 01:16 |
| anabain | ok | 01:17 |

| yaaic | rcus | 01:25 |
| anabain | I'll check, but I don't think so: | 01:27 |
| anabain | TJ-, that's what I have on my server's sshd_config: #AuthorizedKeysFile %h/.ssh/authorized_keys | 01:27 |
| anabain | It seems the line is commented... | 01:27 |
| TJ- | anabain: on the server do "sudo grep 'authorized_keys2' /etc/ssh/*" | 01:27 |
| TJ- | anabain: anything in /etc/default/ssh ? | 01:28 |
| anabain | grep outputs nothing | 01:28 |

| anabain | wow | 01:33 |
| TJ- | anabain: but I'm tired, and that is the fallback after the real problem, which is still there staring us in the face! More permissions issues. see line 192! " Authentication refused: bad ownership or modes for directory /home/joan" | 01:34 |

| TJ- | anabain: 'll' is an alias set by bash | 01:36 |
| anabain | ok | 01:37 |
| TJ- | anabain: there's your problem then, at some point you've changed the permissions. I have to wonder if you've done "chmod -R 777 /" at some point? | 01:37 |
| anabain | probably, perhaps when reinstalling the system or whatever. Most probably yes, I did it. Mea culpa | 01:38 |
| TJ- | anabain: there may be other issues, but this should fix the ssh issue: "sudo chmod -R g-rw,o-rwx /home/joan" | 01:38 |

| Mneuro | I should just have xpad installed | 02:09 |
| Mneuro | i haven't changed anything from the default install of 15.10 | 02:09 |
| TJ- | nishant: doesn't the 'hplip' package support that device? | 02:10 |
| nishant | no it won't | 02:10 |
| LienRag | well, good luck | 02:11 |
| LienRag | I'm not qualified for this | 02:11 |
| nishant | too i've a micromax modem and even it doesnot get install | 02:11 |
| TJ- | nishant: according to HP it is supported: http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/deskjet_aio/deskjet_2520_series.html | 02:15 |
| nishant | ok then i'll try for it again | 02:15 |
| nishant | but what about mmx modem its linex folder doesnot has any application | 02:16 |
| nishant | to install | 02:17 |
| TJ- | nishant: sounds like a soft 'win'modem | 02:17 |
| nishant | i dont know that but i can give you the details of that modem it is: mmx210g | 02:19 |
| Mneuro | I connect my xbox one controller to Ubuntu 15.10, it vibrates but doesn't turn on and ubuntu doesn't see it | 02:21 |
| TJ- | nishant: oh, a USB 3G cellular device? ModemManager should be able to manage most of those kind of devices | 02:21 |
| nishant | then why i m not able to install it | 02:22 |
| Ryom | Can anyone here answer a question I have about connecting to the internet 12.04? | 02:23 |
| TJ- | nishant: install what? no 'install' should be needed for most USB devices | 02:23 |
| TJ- | nishant: check if ModemManager knows about it with "mmcli -L" | 02:23 |
| nishant | but it is not working without installing, how can i use this modem for using internet | 02:24 |
| nishant | connection | 02:24 |
| anabain | TJ-, just a question related to my permissions, problem: it seems you told me to set my home user to 710, right? But "normal" user permissions for home/user dirs are 755. Is there any reason to prefer 710 instead of 755? | 02:24 |
| Bashing-om | Ryom: Maybe, ask the question and see . | 02:25 |
| TJ- | anabain: that last 5 is others=r-x ... do you want any other user able to read/traverse the user's $HOME ? | 02:26 |
| anabain | ok | 02:26 |
| Ryom | Just checking if there's help out there. I'm good | 02:26 |
| nishant | hey tj please help me for this modem | 02:28 |
| TJ- | anabain: the standard umask is, if I recall correctly, Debian used to use 022 but we prefer 027 or 077 now. It's set my pam_umask based on the config in /etc/login.defs | 02:28 |
| TJ- | nishant: i already did, but you haven't responded yet | 02:29 |
| anabain | TJ-, my MASK value in /etc/login.defs in both boxes is 022 | 02:30 |
| TJ- | and it's 02:30 here so I'm leaving! | 02:30 |

| platnorm | hello | 04:29 |
| ProbablyAndy | dumle29_irssi: do you need virtualbox to keep running? you might be able to shut down the instance from teh command line | 04:30 |
| ProbablyAndy | seems like something keeps restarting java. | 04:30 |
| ProbablyAndy | howdy platnorm | 04:31 |
| dumle29_irssi | ProbablyAndy: Nah, kill it with fire :) | 04:32 |
| platnorm | ProbablyAndy: fine i guess , u? | 04:32 |
| Bashing-om | RNeville: That looks great .. now let's verify ' sudo update-grub ' and show me ' ls -al /boot/vmlinuz* ; ls -al /boot/initrd.img* ' . | 04:32 |
| ProbablyAndy | platnorm: doing good. finally friday. | 04:32 |
| ProbablyAndy | dumle29_irssi: i think the command is vboxmanage, but i don't remember the parameters. | 04:33 |
| dumle29_irssi | ProbablyAndy: Will look at the man pages :) | 04:33 |
| platnorm | suuuuuuure i'm so tired | 04:33 |
| Hofan | Hello | 04:35 |
| platnorm | Hofan: Hi | 04:35 |
| dumle29_irssi | ProbablyAndy: So no man pages, and a mile of text | 04:35 |
| dumle29_irssi | doesn't help that tty1 decided to go on my vertical monitor... | 04:36 |
| dumle29_irssi | ProbablyAndy: Mind taking a look if I pastebinit? | 04:36 |
| ProbablyAndy | sure | 04:36 |
| ProbablyAndy | i apparently don't have virtualbox installed on here | 04:36 |
| RNeville | http://paste.ubuntu.com/13954103/ here it is Bashing-om | 04:37 |
| dumle29_irssi | ProbablyAndy: Here's the help output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13954102 | 04:38 |

| ProbablyAndy | i think | 04:39 |
| ProbablyAndy | or acpipowerbutton | 04:39 |
| dumle29_irssi | ok, is there a list command? | 04:39 |
| ProbablyAndy | VBoxMnage list runningvms | 04:39 |
| ProbablyAndy | i thik | 04:39 |
| dumle29_irssi | trying it | 04:40 |
| Bashing-om | RNeville: My bad .. not what I wanted to see . rather ' ls -al /vmlinuz* ; la -al /initrd.img* ' . | 04:41 |
| RNeville | http://paste.ubuntu.com/13954200/ Bashing-om here it is | 04:42 |
| Bashing-om | RNeville: Errra .. do not see the backup kernel -37 in place .. maybe a reboot is in order ? else we set the symlink manually . | 04:45 |
| dumle29_irssi | ProbablyAndy: Java keeps coming back with a vengence | 04:46 |
| RNeville | Bashing-om, using Skype at the moment, I'll try a reboot soon, though | 04:46 |
| dumle29_irssi | ProbablyAndy: 500% CPU use | 04:46 |
| ProbablyAndy | lol. | 04:46 |
| dumle29_irssi | so 4 cores and a hyperthread | 04:46 |
| ProbablyAndy | i dunno what to tell ya, something has gone pear shaped. | 04:46 |
| ProbablyAndy | ctrl+alt+backspace used to be the last resort, but last i checked it was disabled by default. | 04:47 |
| dumle29_irssi | let me get you ps aux | grep java, maybe you can see what java is doing | 04:47 |
| inteus | dumle29_irssi: kill chrome | 04:47 |
| dumle29_irssi | inteus: It's kinda my heartbeat atm. It's playing music | 04:47 |
| Bashing-om | RNeville: K; no hurry .. just the oopps -backup- here we are dealing with . | 04:47 |
| inteus | dumle29_irssi: just in case chrome is using java for some reason | 04:47 |
| inteus | the music player in chrome, does it use java? | 04:48 |
| dumle29_irssi | maybe | 04:48 |
| dumle29_irssi | it's soundcloud | 04:48 |
| dumle29_irssi | plays fine, no hitching or anything | 04:48 |
| ProbablyAndy | looks like java is running freenet | 04:48 |
| dumle29_irssi | aahh | 04:48 |
| dumle29_irssi | fuck that. where to kill? :P | 04:48 |
| ProbablyAndy | i dunno. it was that java process. is it a system service? maybe its getting relaunched automagically. | 04:49 |
| dumle29_irssi | I installed it, and found out it was pretty much deadly slow, and 30% CP, so no thanks | 04:49 |
| ProbablyAndy | thats a systemd thing, right? to relaunch processes that have crashed? | 04:49 |
| dumle29_irssi | freenet is a bit-torrent browser | 04:49 |
| dumle29_irssi | kinda thing. Websites hosted in bit-torrent fashion | 04:49 |
| ProbablyAndy | ah interesting. | 04:50 |
| dumle29_irssi | I don't hope systemd is doing that. | 04:50 |
| dumle29_irssi | I can see if it's a known service | 04:50 |
| dumle29_irssi | Doesn't seem so | 04:52 |
| dumle29_irssi | I killed the freenode pid | 04:52 |
| dumle29_irssi | theat other java thing still keeps coming back | 04:52 |
| ProbablyAndy | does "crontab -l" show anything? | 04:53 |
| ProbablyAndy | perhaps sudo crontab -l | 04:53 |
| DuelBootHelp | Hello. I have Ubuntu intsalled as my primary system, but would like to duel boot Windows. Is this possible with Ubuntu installed first? | 04:54 |
| georgewhite | DuelBootHelp: You’d need to resize your Ubuntu partition using a Ubuntu live disc | 04:54 |
| dumle29_irssi | ProbablyAndy: If you look at the javathing running the freenet | 04:55 |
| dumle29_irssi | ProbablyAndy: See how there's a pid listed? in the 1500s | 04:55 |
| georgewhite | DuelBootHelp: before you install Windows | 04:55 |
| dumle29_irssi | I killed that, and the runaway process, seesm to not be coming back now. Let's see if gnome works | 04:55 |
| georgewhite | DuelBootHelp: (Windows can’t resize Ubuntu’s partitions) | 04:56 |
| georgewhite | DuelBootHelp: Use GParted to do this | 04:56 |
| DuelBootHelp | ok | 04:56 |
| DuelBootHelp | so one sec | 04:56 |
| Dumle29 | Aaaand I'M BACK! | 04:56 |
| Dumle29 | yay :D | 04:56 |
| DuelBootHelp | I have an ubuntu live disk and my windows disk | 04:56 |
| Dumle29 | this time I fixed it instead of force rebooting :D | 04:56 |
| DuelBootHelp | now what I need to do is boot into ubuntu live disk, correct?? | 04:56 |
| ProbablyAndy | Dumle29: sweet. | 04:56 |
| ProbablyAndy | and i learned more about looking at the whole command thats running :D | 04:57 |
| georgewhite | DuelBootHelp: yes, and then, once Windows is installed, boot to your Live disk again and follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 04:57 |
| DuelBootHelp | ty ty | 04:57 |
| georgewhite | DuelBootHelp: You’re welcome. | 04:57 |
| yanivkalfa | I've checked out a repository from github today, the repository had several folders and files with different permission is there a way to set all of the file permission for the entire repository ? | 04:58 |
| Dylan____ | How do you become a fourm moderator for ubuntu fourms? | 04:58 |
| georgewhite | yanivkalfa: chmod -R? | 04:58 |
| Dumle29 | ProbablyAndy: Just for clousure :) http://paste.ubuntu.com/13953914/ line 151 | 04:59 |
| yanivkalfa | georgewhite, We've tried that | 04:59 |
| Dylan____ | !patience | 04:59 |
| yanivkalfa | didnt seem to effect the right files | 04:59 |
| ubottu | Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 04:59 |
| yanivkalfa | we changed owner and mod | 04:59 |
| Dumle29 | ProbablyAndy: That's the one that kept reviving the java of death | 04:59 |
| georgewhite | yanivkalfa: Then there might be ACLs. | 04:59 |
| Dumle29 | thanks a lot for the help :) | 04:59 |
| georgewhite | yanivkalfa: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissionsACLs | 05:00 |
| lorddaedra | hello) how to emulate WORM functionality for HDD/SSD? | 05:00 |
| lorddaedra | (WORM = Write Once Read Many, so it's protection from removing files from disc after they were copied to disc once) | 05:00 |
| yanivkalfa | georgewhite, Will read that | 05:00 |
| georgewhite | Just clear all of the ACLs in that repository | 05:01 |
| georgewhite | and try again | 05:01 |
| ProbablyAndy | Dumle29: anytime, was a fun one. It was nice to work with someone patient. | 05:01 |
| Dumle29 | ProbablyAndy: I could say the same back :P | 05:01 |
| Dumle29 | but you guys in here are always so danm patient :P | 05:02 |
| === djyhjtgj is now known as slidinghorn | ||
| ProbablyAndy | i'm rather impressed. i don't even use ubuntu, but i figured i'd stop by and see how things are in the old stomping grounds ( i used ubuntu quite a bit back in 2004ish, and hung out in here) | 05:03 |
| Dumle29 | Heh, the funny / sad thing, is that this is tons friendlier and better than windows livechat | 05:04 |
| Dumle29 | which I've had to deal with once | 05:05 |
| Dumle29 | because of a stupid dumb bug in windows | 05:05 |
| Dumle29 | I was basically told a full 15 line paragraph on how they probably couldn't help me, but they were going to try if I kept writing. Before I asked anything. | 05:06 |
| Dumle29 | Oh well, that's the off topic for me in here. I've heard they prefer that over in #ubuntu-offtopic :) | 05:06 |
| yanivkalfa | does file permission stay in github ? | 05:06 |
| yanivkalfa | Like say i make a repo locally then push it github | 05:06 |
| Dumle29 | test time :) | 05:07 |
| Dumle29 | if they are stored on a linux file system, and aren't altered at githubs servers, then they should retain permissions | 05:07 |
| Jaxkr | So I am getting desperate. I have a Roccat Kone Pure mouse. Sensitivity options for this mouse do not show up in the system settings for Ubuntu. I tried making a script with "xset m 0 0" and then running it on startup, and it worked great! It disabled acceleration just like I needed it to. However, there was one small issue, when I suspended the computer and then woke it back up my acceleration was insane again. | 05:09 |
| Jaxkr | What's the best way to disable mouse acceleration in a persistent way if you have an unsupported mouse? | 05:09 |
| Dumle29 | hmm. you could hook it to a cronjob that runs at login | 05:09 |
| Dumle29 | don't remember if there's an @ for that | 05:09 |
| Jaxkr | but does a login cron run when waking from suspend? | 05:10 |
| Dumle29 | hmm, don't thin so :/ | 05:10 |
| Jaxkr | Yeah. | 05:10 |
| staticsn0w | guys i need some help :/ | 05:10 |
| ProbablyAndy | it used to be that there were hooks in /etc/acpid, but that was a while ago. there should be some kind of resume hook though | 05:11 |
| slidinghorn | Jaxkr: On my phone, so my google-fu isn't strong right now, but google how to execute/reinitialize something on wake up...give me like 30 min or so and ill be home | 05:11 |
| Jaxkr | hm, so crontab is the answer? Are you sure there isn't a conf file somewhere that controls x sensitivity. | 05:11 |
| Jaxkr | slidinghorn, thanks! I'll take a google. | 05:11 |
| Jaxkr | staticsn0w, ask away. | 05:11 |
| ProbablyAndy | you can't have the whole google | 05:11 |
| ProbablyAndy | that would be silly | 05:12 |
| Jaxkr | wathc me. | 05:12 |
| staticsn0w | so i just reinstalled ubuntu on my pc cause something must have corupted, and now i have to go in to my boot menu and select the "ubuntu" option under UEFI | 05:12 |
| ProbablyAndy | lol | 05:12 |
| staticsn0w | it wont boot in to grub | 05:12 |
| staticsn0w | i have a dell insperon 3520 | 05:13 |
| Jaxkr | well, that's a rather complex issue. | 05:13 |
| Jaxkr | there are a lot of things that could be causing that. | 05:13 |
| staticsn0w | :/ | 05:13 |
| georgewhite | staticsn0w: Try booting a Live disk and running Boot Repair | 05:13 |
| staticsn0w | ok | 05:13 |
| Jaxkr | have you tried pulling up your bios boot menu | 05:13 |
| staticsn0w | when i boot my pc it goes in to some psx boot rom or something like that | 05:14 |
| georgewhite | staticsn0w: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 05:14 |
| staticsn0w | ok thanks | 05:14 |
| Jaxkr | So I figured out how to run a script on startup, but I would rather change a config file than run xset a lot. Is there no better way to change mouse acceleration? | 05:14 |
| staticsn0w | fixed it! | 05:18 |
| staticsn0w | i just set my default boot options to UEFI instead of Legacy :P | 05:18 |
| Jaxkr | Yay! | 05:19 |
| georgewhite | staticsn0w: good to know it’s fixed! | 05:19 |
| staticsn0w | now i dont get grub, but it goes right in to ubuntu! which is VERY convenient for me :D | 05:19 |
| Jaxkr | So if anyone has a mouse solution that isn't a script let me know. | 05:19 |
| Jaxkr | staticsn0w, grub just lets you pick your operating system. pretty simple. :) | 05:19 |
| staticsn0w | dont need it | 05:20 |
| staticsn0w | but im very happy this works now | 05:20 |
| === pc_ is now known as Guest98300 | ||
| staticsn0w | i bricked my pc earlier because i coorrupted grub and ubuntu | 05:20 |
| staticsn0w | just got a live usb today (which took me HOURS to make since i used wine on a mac) | 05:20 |
| Jaxkr | staticsn0w, what. | 05:21 |
| georgewhite | Jaxkr: You could probably convert the command in the guide to a Xorg.d configuration file: http://askubuntu.com/questions/205676/how-to-change-mouse-speed-sensitivity | 05:21 |
| Jaxkr | you know you can make a boot usb on mac natively. | 05:21 |
| staticsn0w | i didnt have the admin pass for it by the way | 05:21 |
| georgewhite | Yeah. dd requires an admin account. | 05:22 |
| staticsn0w | so i had to find a workaround, which happened to be UNETbootin for win | 05:22 |
| staticsn0w | :P | 05:22 |
| Jaxkr | you can get admin on any mac really easy | 05:22 |
| Jaxkr | just hold control s on bootup | 05:22 |
| Jaxkr | mount the drive | 05:22 |
| staticsn0w | didnt feel like doing that | 05:22 |
| staticsn0w | oh ok | 05:22 |
| Jaxkr | then rm /var/db/.applesetupdone | 05:22 |
| Jaxkr | ez admin. | 05:22 |
| staticsn0w | im gonna ask the guy who lended me this usb key if i can keep it for a backup lol | 05:23 |
| georgewhite | Jaxkr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MouseCustomizations follow this guide for configuring Xorg’s mouse setting | 05:23 |
| georgewhite | Jaxkr: and these are the settings that you want: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mouse_acceleration | 05:24 |
| Jaxkr | oh yeah I tried this. | 05:24 |
| Jaxkr | Do I have to create those files? | 05:24 |
| Jaxkr | They do not exist. | 05:24 |
| georgewhite | Jaxkr: yes | 05:25 |
| georgewhite | The last section says that ‘Mouse acceleration has changed dramatically in recent X server versions; using xset to disable acceleration doesn't work as it used to and is not recommended anymore.’ | 05:25 |
| georgewhite | Jaxkr: so it’s probably best to follow the last section | 05:25 |
| staticsn0w | ive got to retheme my pc now rofl | 05:26 |
| georgewhite | Jaxkr: because it supports newer Xorg versions. | 05:27 |
| staticsn0w | and install everything again.... | 05:28 |
| staticsn0w | lolllll | 05:28 |
| Jack3k3 | so i messed up my system when trying to install nvidia drivers, now when Im at the login screen and login the screen flashes black and returns back to the login screen | 05:29 |
| Jack3k3 | i think its because i removed nvidia-current and the noveau drivers so im trying to add them back but now I can't get my wireless adapter to connect from the CLI!! | 05:30 |
| staticsn0w | Jack3k3 happened to me before, reinstall ubuntu | 05:30 |
| ProbablyAndy | Jack3k3: what does "grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log" show you ? | 05:30 |
| Jack3k3 | No devices detected. Failed to load module "nv | 05:31 |
| Jack3k3 | No devices detected. Failed to load module "nv" (module does not exist, 0). Failed to initialize GLX extension (compatible NVIDIA X driver not found) | 05:31 |
| georgewhite | staticsn0w: I don’t think you need to do that! That’s a bit drastic! | 05:31 |
| ProbablyAndy | if you run "lsmod", is nvidia listed? | 05:31 |
| staticsn0w | guys, some of th default sources are giving 404s :( | 05:32 |
| georgewhite | staticsn0w: What do you mean? | 05:32 |
| georgewhite | staticsn0w: in apt? | 05:32 |
| Jack3k3 | it is not listed, however nouveau is | 05:32 |
| ProbablyAndy | interesting | 05:32 |
| georgewhite | staticsn0w: It’s probably because you need to run apt-get update | 05:33 |
| ProbablyAndy | so if you do "sudo modprobe -r nouveau && modprobe nvidia"... what does it say? | 05:33 |
| ProbablyAndy | erm, sudo modprobe nvidia | 05:33 |
| * ProbablyAndy is out of the sudo habit | 05:33 | |
| Jack3k3 | Well i ran those separately and for the nouveau one it said FATAL: module nouveau is in use | 05:34 |
| Jack3k3 | while for the nvidia one it just returned without saying anything | 05:35 |
| ProbablyAndy | it sort of sounds like the xorg nvidia driver got installed, the kernel nvidia driver didn't, and nouveau is getting loaded anyway. | 05:35 |
| georgewhite | Jack3k3: If it returns nothing then that means the module was loaded successfully. | 05:35 |
| ProbablyAndy | whats the end of dmesg look like? | 05:35 |
| ProbablyAndy | maybe you just need to blacklist nouveau | 05:36 |
| ProbablyAndy | and then reboot | 05:36 |
| ojii | is there a way to create a wifi hotspot (in 15.04) from the command line? the network manager "use as hotspot" button does nothing for me | 05:38 |
| Bashing-om | !nomodeset | Jack3k3 Maybe ? : | 05:39 |
| ubottu | Jack3k3 Maybe ? :: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 05:39 |
| Jack3k3 | ProbablyAndy, no luck, I checked lsmod, noveau is not there now, so i did mobprobe -r nvidia and tried logging in without luck | 05:39 |
| Jack3k3 | additionally lsmod still does not list nvidia | 05:40 |
| Abe | ojii: do you mean your router with hotspot? what are you trying can you be more specific? | 05:40 |
| ProbablyAndy | Bashing-om: isn't the nomodeset thing before you get to X? | 05:41 |
| staticsn0w | this iswhat i get when i run apt-get update: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13955517/ | 05:41 |
| Jack3k3 | yeah my login screen looks fine, its only once i login that it flashes and returns back to the login screen | 05:41 |
| staticsn0w | why is some of the default repos 404ing? | 05:41 |
| ojii | Abe, I want my ubuntu laptop to ask as an AP for my phone/other laptopt. it's connected to the internet via ethernet/pppoe | 05:41 |
| ProbablyAndy | Jack3k3: ooh. that is weird. so Xorg runs....probably using nouveau. But your window manager is crashing | 05:42 |
| Jack3k3 | pretty much | 05:42 |
| Bashing-om | ProbablyAndy: Yeah .. should load the FBvesa driver . | 05:42 |
| ProbablyAndy | which window manager? | 05:42 |
| Jack3k3 | kdm | 05:42 |
| ojii | Abe, "act as an", not ask. basically i want to be able to connect to the internet from my phone via my ubuntu laptop | 05:44 |
| Abe | ojii: If you cannot open the gui try opening it with " nm-connection-editor " | 05:44 |
| ojii | Abe, i guess I then hit "add"->"wifi"->"create"? | 05:45 |
| staticsn0w | also a bunch of dependencies are missing | 05:46 |
| staticsn0w | how do i fully update ubuntu? | 05:46 |
| buaya | test | 05:46 |
| georgewhite | staticsn0w: utopic simply isn’t supported by that US archive for some reason (http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/) | 05:46 |
| staticsn0w | like, without making a live usb etc | 05:46 |
| Abe | ojii: I am reading into it right now by myself I am not connected to my phone | 05:46 |
| ojii | okay thanks | 05:46 |

| staticsn0w | huh, ok! :P | 05:49 |
| staticsn0w | so just make a new live usb? | 05:49 |
| ojii | Abe, oh lucky, i can read german | 05:49 |
| Jack3k3 | ProbablyAndy, haha yes, but to be fair im using Mint 14 which is ubuntu12 i believe so I was hoping itd be okay | 05:49 |
| staticsn0w | ojii kurzgesagt, tell me what that means :D | 05:50 |

| ubottu | Jack3k3: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 05:50 |
| ProbablyAndy | Jack3k3: fair enough. all i can think to do this time is start looking at the ends of the Xorg log files to maybe find some clues as to why your WM is grenading. | 05:50 |
| Abe | ojii: sorry | 05:51 |
| Jack3k3 | okay ill give it a go thanks | 05:51 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | staticsn0w note I haven't personally done this so I can't offer any additional assistance | 05:51 |
| staticsn0w | lol ok | 05:51 |
| ojii | Abe, whelp "Error: Connection activation failed." | 05:52 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | staticsn0w also i've heard of people running into MANY issues upgrading from LTS to non-LTS | 05:52 |

| staticsn0w | seriouslylaugh ill just reinstall completely lol | 05:52 |
| staticsn0w | yeah' | 05:52 |
| SlidingHorn | staticsn0w: remind me: what was your question? | 05:52 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | cool | 05:52 |
| ojii | oh should've read further down | 05:52 |
| Abe | ojii: do you have an android phone | 05:53 |
| ProbablyAndy | Jack3k3: another thought. It could be that the WM configuration is somehow messed up. If its KDE, you can sometimes do "mv ~/.kde ~/.kde.old" to reset the configuration and see if it works | 05:53 |
| * SlidingHorn was on his phone earlier, sorry | 05:53 | |
| ojii | Abe, yes, somewhere | 05:53 |
| staticsn0w | SlidingHorn none now, its all good! :D | 05:53 |
| Abe | No is that the phone you wanna use ? | 05:53 |
| SlidingHorn | staticsn0w: oh, good then :) | 05:53 |
| ojii | ideally i'd wanna use my iphone | 05:53 |
| staticsn0w | anyone know how to format a usb flashdrive on ubuntu? | 05:54 |
| georgewhite | Use GParted? | 05:54 |
| ojii | at the end of the day what I want to do is use my phone headset for a google hangout call, but my ubuntu laptop has split mic/headphones ports, so i want to use my phone instead, but don't want to waste all my 4G | 05:54 |
| georgewhite | or search for Disks staticsn0w | 05:54 |
| staticsn0w | ok :) | 05:54 |
| georgewhite | and use GNOME’s Disks tool (it should be installed in UbuntU) | 05:54 |

| Overlap | my wall paper changed | 06:00 |
| wwwd | kiddddd Used to be that you had to install windows first then install linux ...widows likes to be on the first sectors of the disk if I remember correctly. | 06:00 |
| Kiddddd | yes well I have installed ubuntu first | 06:00 |
| Kiddddd | so | 06:00 |
| Abe | ojii: type " nm-connection-editor " and try it with Ad-hoc you need the right connection settings for I phone | 06:00 |
| Overlap | yes you're right wwwd | 06:01 |

| Overlap | by the way, cool nick SeriouslyLaugh | 06:01 |

| Overlap | no no ! I am using my own account. I can watch my files | 06:03 |
| Overlap | in my directory | 06:03 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | ok then i have no idea, sorry | 06:03 |
| ojii | Abe, after adding the ad hoc wifi, how do i start it? | 06:03 |
| holucon | So....when I run deluged, this happens on my router | 06:03 |
| holucon | http://i.imgur.com/RubAVPf.png | 06:03 |
| Overlap | no prob @Seriously :) | 06:03 |
| holucon | any idea what could possibly be causing the connections to not clear? | 06:04 |
| wwwd | So my problem, which is new for me...I have an external hd where, by the way I have files backed up. When I try an cp -r from my hd it starts cping then kicks bash crashes and I am kicked out to the log in. I have tried cp -r with both sudo and without. | 06:04 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | wwwd are you able to paste the exact errors? | 06:05 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | !paste | 06:05 |

| ojii | Abe, I thinkI found my problem, nm-connection-editor was spamming "Invalid setting Wi-Fi Security: Invalid Wi-Fi security" in the console. created an ad-hoc without security and it works | 06:06 |
| wwwd | SeriouslyLaugh: I'm not getting any. Just kills the bash terminal and kicks me back to the login screen...never seen anything like this before. | 06:06 |
| ojii | hope my neighbors enjoy free wifi | 06:06 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | oh sorry wwwd i misread your question | 06:07 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | weird | 06:07 |
| ojii | thanks for your help Abe | 06:07 |
| Abe | Did it work with ad-hoc good i'm glad | 06:08 |
| ojii | Abe, seems to work | 06:08 |
| ojii | let me double-check it's not using cellular | 06:08 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | wwwd one idea I just had...maybe drop into another TTY and try copying from there? | 06:09 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | ctrl+alt+f3 for example | 06:09 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | ctrl+alt+f7 to switch back to the GUI TTY | 06:09 |
| Overlap | may be redirect standard error to a file in your home directory | 06:10 |
| ojii | yep worked | 06:11 |
| wwwd | SeriouslyLaugh: I can try. | 06:11 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | if there's no bash window to crash, i'm thinking maybe it'll force at least some kind of output | 06:11 |
| Overlap | so before it kicks you out, it will throw error in that file | 06:12 |
| Overlap | :/ | 06:12 |
| Overlap | Just Alt + F7 will also work SeriouslyLaugh | 06:12 |
| Overlap | Is there any other ubuntu channel as well ? | 06:12 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | thanks Overlap | 06:14 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | !ot | 06:15 |

| SeriouslyLaugh | there's also #ubuntu-discuss | 06:15 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | just used that trigger to show the OT channel | 06:16 |
| Overlap | ok @seriouslyLaugh | 06:16 |
| wwwd | SeriouslyLaugh: That seems to be working though it makes me a little nervous that my terminal is crashing when I try an do a simple cp. Any idea what might cause this? | 06:17 |
| Jack3k3 | ProbablyAndy, I think I figured out whats going on | 06:18 |
| * SeriouslyLaugh shrugs | 06:18 | |
| ProbablyAndy | Jack3k3: gnomes? | 06:18 |
| SeriouslyLaugh | pixies? | 06:18 |
| Overlap | Did it not throw any errors ? (your console) | 06:18 |
| Jack3k3 | I have an intell cihpset witha display port that my monitor is on but I am installing drivers for my 9600GT card.according to inxi -xG X.org is using intel drivers (with nvidia/fbdev/vesa unloaded) | 06:19 |
| Jack3k3 | so I wonder if theres some conflict between the two | 06:19 |
| wwwd | Nothing. Just kicked me out. | 06:19 |
| ProbablyAndy | Jack3k3: interesting. is this one of those optimus things where it is supposed to switch between the two for power saving purposes? | 06:20 |
| ProbablyAndy | Jack3k3: if it isn't, maybe you have to disable the intel card in the bios? | 06:20 |
| wwwd | And, as imporant...it is a new install of 14.04. Do I need to reinstall...that is, is the system corupted some how? | 06:21 |
| Overlap | 14.04 is having problems with updates | 06:21 |
| Jack3k3 | yeah that might well be. Kinda problematic since my monitor only runs display port. At this point I'm fine with the nvidia card not working if i can just get the intel card working again | 06:21 |
| |Aquilon2 | 14.04... Did you try 15.10 ? | 06:22 |
| Abe | Jack3k3: If u have a graphics card installed, why doesn't it show additional drivers in the system settings? | 06:23 |
| Jack3k3 | Not sure about that | 06:24 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: what problems? | 06:26 |
| Abe | No sorry I ask wrong... does it show additional drivers in the system settings? idk it should | 06:26 |
| SlidingHorn | |Aquilon2: upgrading to non-LTS isn't a go-to response here...non-LTS releases are almost exclusively for people who need a new version of a particular software that didn't quite make it | 06:27 |
| Overlap | my system received updates; and now not reading flash drive, or any other USB device | 06:27 |
| Overlap | although kernel shows entry of the device : $sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog | 06:27 |
| wwwd | Aquilon2: No. Always figured the lts version would be the best. On a separate issue. And, I know this is not really an ubuntu question but I am getting no love anywhere else. I tried installing watchman to be used with ubuntu. It is not monitoring files and throws an error telling me I need to increase max_user_instances, max_user_watchers, and max_queued_events. Anyone happen to know what these settings are supposed to be? | 06:27 |
| wwwd | Sorry that should say be used with Ember... | 06:28 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: what is the usb device? | 06:28 |
| Overlap | flash drive | 06:28 |
| ProbablyAndy | Overlap: have you restarted or logged out/in since the updates? maybe the daemon that loads the usb drives got updated and isn't running | 06:28 |
| Overlap | I received updates 4 -5 days back | 06:29 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: okay, and which version & flavor of *buntu are you using? | 06:29 |
| Overlap | since then umpteen times | 06:29 |
| Overlap | 14.04 | 06:29 |
| ProbablyAndy | aho k. | 06:29 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: cool - now...in your terminal: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade then, I want you to post the output of "lsusb" both before & after you've inserted the drive into a pastebin (http://paste.ubuntu.com for example) | 06:30 |
| Overlap | Sorry I was Away from keyboard; I'll do it, just wait @SlidingHorn | 06:32 |
| Jack3k3 | so in Xorg's log I'm still getting "failed to load module "nvidia"" and "failed to load module "nv"" errors | 06:39 |
| Jack3k3 | i've removed all of nvidia though | 06:39 |
| Jack3k3 | nouveau shows under lsmod | 06:39 |
| Jack3k3 | is there some way to tell X to stop trying to use nvidia? | 06:40 |
| Ben64 | why do you not want to use nvidia? how did you install nvidia? how did you uninstall nvidia? does /etc/X11/xorg.conf exist | 06:40 |
| Overlap | SlidingHorn : before drive inserted: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13956851/ | 06:42 |
| Jack3k3 | because my monitor is on an intel chipset. I installed via nvidia proprietary source + blacklisting. I uninstalled by --purging nvidia*,. Looks like xorg.conf does Not exist | 06:42 |
| Overlap | After driver inserted : http://paste.ubuntu.com/13956883/ | 06:42 |
| Overlap | You there SlidingHorn ? | 06:42 |
| Ben64 | Jack3k3: monitor is on intel chipset? explain what you mean by proprietary source + blacklisting | 06:43 |
| Overlap | how to pop up msg on SlidingHorn's screen (notification) @Ben64 | 06:43 |
| Overlap | He asked for the o/p of a command | 06:44 |
| Ben64 | Overlap: you've already done it | 06:44 |
| Jack3k3 | Ben64, my monitor is connnected to displayport which is built in on the monitor with an intel chipset. I originally was trying to install nvidia drivers since I have a 9600GT pci expres card but at this point I just want my system working again and dont care about that | 06:44 |
| Overlap | when to address someone like you just did to me ? | 06:44 |
| Overlap | your name appeared in yellow | 06:44 |
| bazhang | !tab | Overlap | 06:45 |
| ubottu | Overlap: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 06:45 |
| Overlap | how to * | 06:45 |
| Overlap | ok :) | 06:45 |
| Jack3k3 | Ben64, basically, I blacklisted the nouveau drivers and then purged nvidia and then turned off kdm and used the nvidia proprietary driver installer (from nvidias website) | 06:45 |
| Jack3k3 | after doing all this I got stuck in a login loop | 06:45 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: whenever you type my full s/n in I'll get a notification fi I'm online...was just afk for a bit. In terms of your output, *something* is being picked up, but it's not recognized....does this flash drive work right now in any other OS environments? | 06:45 |
| Ben64 | Jack3k3: yeah you shouldn't install from the website, nvidia drivers are in ubuntu repositories | 06:46 |
| Jack3k3 | ah :\ | 06:46 |
| Overlap | yes, I made it bootable on Ubuntu 14.04 (my friend's PC) | 06:46 |
| wwwd | bazhang: Sorry I missed some of this because my laptop kicked me off my wi-fi. What is bang tab? | 06:47 |
| Ben64 | Jack3k3: to remove you'd have to check the the options of the installer or the website or something | 06:47 |
| wwwd | and "@"Ben? | 06:47 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: wait...this is a bootable USB? okay, maybe I'm misreading your problem...please let me know exactly what you're trying to do with this USB, and what's preventing you from it? (sorry, I'm sure you've typed it before...the more detail & error messages, etc. you can provide, the better...not just for me, for everyone) | 06:48 |
| Overlap | Actually, ubuntu is unable to detect it and other devices before I made it bootable | 06:49 |
| Overlap | Even my launcher it set ot default | 06:49 |
| Overlap | my destop is set to default | 06:49 |
| Overlap | wwwd, bang tan is I guess simple <Tab> key | 06:50 |
| Overlap | it completes the partially entered command | 06:50 |
| Overlap | No other device is mounting on the file system tree SlidingHorn | 06:52 |
| Overlap | I have to do it manually, with the help of tail -f /var/log/syslog | 06:52 |
| Overlap | and then mount -t 4...... | 06:52 |
| wwwd | Overlap: I just caught your question about poping up a message on a users screen. How do I do that and is it considered polite on IRC? | 06:53 |
| Overlap | Actually, i was not talking about initiating a private chat | 06:54 |
| Overlap | I was asking to leave a notification on the screen of slidin horn | 06:54 |
| SlidingHorn | wwwd: just ask your questions in great detail in the chat...do not single out a particuar volunteer...if someone can help, they will. do not PM someone without their permission...the goal is to keep support in the chat for future reference & to make sure you dont' get bad advice in a PM | 06:55 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: I'm sorry, but you didn't really answer my question....are you trying to view the contents of this drive? boot from it? format it? | 06:56 |
| bazhang | use the tab key Overlap , slid<tab> | 06:56 |

| Overlap | thanx | 06:57 |
| sas93 | so i tried installing ubuntu today and i am having some trouble, anyone hear know about bootloaders? | 06:57 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: okay...but you said this is a bootable USB...did you follow instructions to make a *persistent* USB installation of Ubuntu? | 06:57 |
| bazhang | np | 06:57 |
| wwwd | SlidingHorn: Ok. Wondered about that. Thanks! | 06:57 |
| Overlap | SlidingHorn, I tried other flash drives as well | 06:57 |
| Overlap | normal flash drives | 06:57 |
| Overlap | but Ubuntu is not showing it on the laucher ( not mounting them) | 06:58 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: what about, say...a USB mouse? Does Ubuntu capture it using the same USB port? | 06:58 |
| Jack3k3 | okay what the heck | 07:00 |
| === ^cj^ is now known as ^CJ^ | ||
| Overlap | SlidingHorn, surprisingly yes | 07:00 |

| Overlap | SlidingHorn, catching mouse | 07:00 |
| Jack3k3 | I pulled out the nvidia card and its still returning to the login screen when I login | 07:00 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: okay, well then we've at least eliminated the possibility of the port being dead... | 07:00 |
| Jack3k3 | But now if i check inxi -Gx there are no failures, just drivers for X are intel (as expecteD) | 07:00 |
| Jack3k3 | and if I check Xorg log, there are no errors | 07:00 |
| Ben64 | try logging in as guest Jack3k3 | 07:01 |
| Overlap | port is n't dead, currently I am charging my cellphone on that port | 07:01 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: could you show me the output of "lsblk" & "fdisk -l" with and without the USB? You can paste them all into one pastebin, just label them for us | 07:02 |
| Jack3k3 | Ben64 I dont have that option | 07:02 |

| Overlap | :) | 07:11 |
| sas93 | hmm | 07:11 |
| SlidingHorn | sas93: so use rufus or netbootin to "burn" your 64-bit...when you go to restart your windows 10 DON'T turn off secure boot or enable legacy...you don't need to. | 07:12 |
| sas93 | sounds like i should just scrap the idea and get a 64 bit efi device | 07:12 |

| Overlap | login after boot, SlidingHorn | 07:21 |
| SlidingHorn | Overlap: this is from an old solution, but maybe it will help...add "usb_storage" (no quotes) to the end of /etc/modules: sudo nano /etc/modules or sudo vi /etc/modules (depends on your editor of choice) | 07:21 |
| Overlap | 'vi' | 07:22 |

| cfhowlett | utu8o, if it boots windows, it'll boot ubuntu | 08:09 |
| utu8o | cfedde, i'm wondering about hardware compatibility, for example it only outputs audio via HDMI | 08:11 |
| utu8o | it also has a finger print reader | 08:11 |
| Ben64 | its slow | 08:11 |
| utu8o | will the bluetooth and WIFI work with Ubuntu? | 08:12 |
| cfhowlett | utu8o, finger print readers are not fully hacked yet so far as I know. hdmi takes a bit of work to set up but is doable. For $99, order it and see for yourself. | 08:12 |

| panagos | akik: what is the difference between reject and deny? | 11:36 |
| TJ- | panagos: 'reject' will tell the client attempting to send the packet that it failed. 'deny' will silently drop the packet, leaving the client waiting for a response | 11:37 |
| panagos | ahhh ok ok thanks guys:) you guys are soo helpful :) | 11:37 |
| yrumpk | Why don't linux sue google for making profit on android linux | 11:44 |
| panagos | so once the rule is added and the ufw status is enabled what would I expect to see in the audit logs | 11:45 |
| panagos | deny? | 11:45 |
| EriC^^ | yrumpk: you can sell stuff as long as it's open source | 11:45 |
| panagos | i presume specific rules take preference over the defaults correct? | 11:46 |
| EriC^^ | yrumpk: i think | 11:47 |
| panagos | i guess if it says "UFW AUDIT" it is telling us that the rule was enforced | 11:47 |
| panagos | versus UFW ALLOW? | 11:47 |
| panagos | i guess put another way... if the firewall rule for UDP/137 was working correctly then iptraf would not be showing up any traffic on UDP/37 | 11:53 |
| panagos | sorry UDP/137 | 11:54 |
| akik | panagos: it looks like you need to enable logging separately "sudo ufw logging on" | 11:56 |
| panagos | akik: i did "sudo ufw logging high" | 11:56 |
| panagos | and i see the logs in the ufw.log | 11:56 |
| akik | panagos: the syntax is 137/udp, not the other way around | 11:57 |
| panagos | akik: yes. i did that and it looks correct: 137/udp DENY OUT Anywhere | 11:58 |

| UsuSai | OerHeks is right. May be you should configure the sudoers file for being able to install with other user, with perhaps a easyer password and keeping your root password | 12:24 |
| Guest559 | OerHeks: yes I want to configure this laptop without password | 12:24 |

| Guest559 | I just install ubuntu mate on laptop for sale and that why I want to do something like it | 12:26 |
| OerHeks | not a legit reason for me | 12:27 |
| akik | what does "turning off admin password" even mean? it looks more likely that guest559 wants to set root password | 12:27 |
| OerHeks | no, he wants to disable password. | 12:27 |
| Guest559 | OerHeks: yes disable :) | 12:28 |
| UsuSai | Guest559 -- take a look http://askubuntu.com/questions/553117/allow-root-access-without-passwd | 12:28 |
| OerHeks | so future ubuntu user is unsafe, and it gives a bad experience... | 12:28 |

| Lyden | I would like to know what device I pick for the boot manager((?)I think this is what it asks) It has a dropdown option, however I am unsure what the options given were as I can only access this device at the moment. | 12:52 |
| TJ- | Lyden: generally, the boot device should be the same one as the root file-system is being installed to | 12:53 |
| Lyden | So would this be the 32GB partition I have made? | 12:53 |
| TJ- | Lyden: boot-loader doesn't go into a partition, the *device* that *contains* the partition. E.g. if the root file-system were in /dev/sda3 then the boot-loader would go to /dev/sda | 12:55 |

| asad_ | what do the options "dont wait for video sync" and "force full screen redraws (buffer swap) on repaint" do in compizconfig settings? | 14:07 |
| daftykins | asad_: vsync matches the framerate output to the refresh rate of your screen, typically 60fps for a 60Hz LCD. This prevents tearing, which is where a horizontal line appears to be drawn along the middle of the picture. | 14:08 |
| daftykins | i can't be 100% on the second but it sounds like something that could make the graphics system work harder unnecessarily. | 14:09 |

| ubottu | A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. | 14:15 |

| Tokenizer | there's a risk still from what you guys are saying | 14:18 |
| daftykins | Tokenizer: but that's ok 'cause you'll have backups | 14:18 |
| cfhowlett | of COURSE he has backups! | 14:18 |
| daftykins | you could just remove the MOTD update info | 14:19 |

| asad_ | daftykins, okay I don't seem to notice any vertical tearing in firefox after changing these settings. should I keep them? | 14:25 |
| Thinker_ | I just created 125 GB ext4 partition in ubuntu. When I format this partition, file manager tells its capacity as 116.6 GB and usable space of only 116.9 GB. Why there are so differences? Can anyone please explain | 14:25 |
| JeDa | hal~lo | 14:26 |
| daftykins | Thinker_: base 10 and base 2 unit conversion | 14:26 |
| Thinker_ | no....its not 1024 vs 1000.... Itssomething related to ext4 | 14:26 |
| Thinker_ | When I format that with NTFS, its show exactly 125GB | 14:27 |
| daftykins | depends on the tools you're using. | 14:27 |
| daftykins | i'd go by "df -h" | 14:27 |
| EriC^^ | Thinker_: it's the 5% reserved for root | 14:27 |
| akik | Thinker_: there's probably a 5% quota set aside for root | 14:27 |
| EriC^^ | Thinker_: 125*0.05=6 | 14:27 |
| EriC^^ | so you get 119 left | 14:28 |
| daftykins | mmm there you go :) didn't know GUI tools showed it up | 14:28 |
| MonkeyDust | EriC^^ +1 | 14:28 |
| daftykins | !cookie | EriC^^ | 14:28 |
| ubottu | EriC^^: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 14:28 |
| * EriC^^ eats the cookie :D | 14:29 | |
| akik | Thinker_: you can set the reserved block percentage to 0 with "sudo tune2fs -m 0 /dev/sdXn" | 14:29 |
| Thinker_ | sorry....my typing mistake....... Actual partition sixe 125GB exact File manager says Partition size 122.9 Available 116.6 Here is screenshot http://imgur.com/QSyTmPX | 14:30 |
| zteam | Hi all! | 14:30 |
| daftykins | hi zteam | 14:30 |
| Thinker_ | thanks eric | 14:30 |
| daftykins | got a question? | 14:30 |
| Thinker_ | but neither 122.9 GB nor 116.6 GB is near 5% | 14:30 |
| Thinker_ | And system reserved shoulg give one change, why there are 2 different entries... | 14:31 |
| Thinker_ | thanks in advance | 14:31 |
| Thinker_ | specially eric | 14:31 |
| zteam | Is there any easy way to make firefox better at handling files downloads, I don't know how many times I try to open a zip-file and Firefox tries to open it gedit | 14:32 |
| rasta | hey | 14:32 |
| rasta | :D | 14:32 |
| zteam | daftykins, Hi there :-= | 14:32 |
| daftykins | zteam: go into the settings and change the associated app for the file type, simple. | 14:32 |
| daftykins | rasta: a'ight me breadbin | 14:33 |
| zteam | daftykins, Well I already tried that, it works for some pages, but not for others (they probably change the mime-type or something | 14:33 |
| * Thinker_ is desperately waiting for in depth explanation | 14:33 | |
| rasta | nice | 14:34 |
| daftykins | Thinker_: i think i'd sooner get on with my life. | 14:34 |
| curiouscharacter | hello ubuntu | 14:34 |
| zteam | daftykins, Try this download for example, http://www.aptana.com/products/studio3/download.html | 14:34 |
| curiouscharacter | im having problems with the commands | 14:35 |
| * Thinker_ could not understand daftykins meaning bcoz of weak english | 14:35 | |
| akik | Thinker_: you'll not get the full 125 gigs usable space, the file system information needs also to be stored in the file system. try that tune2fs command first | 14:35 |
| zteam | daftykins, if you try to download the Aptana file firefox defaults to Gedit (or some other unrealeled application) | 14:35 |
| daftykins | zteam: i can't test that as i don't use ubuntu desktop... however did you check what i said? | 14:36 |
| Thinker_ | akik, thanks....but I dont need 100 % space. I just want to know how it works, I mean just for knowledge | 14:36 |
| MonkeyDust | Thinker_ it's not something to be desperate about | 14:37 |
| Thinker_ | but learning linux is interesting buddy MonkeyDust | 14:37 |
| Thinker_ | atleast for me | 14:37 |
| daftykins | Thinker_: re-do it as exFAT and notice the difference. | 14:38 |
| daftykins | though you may need to install exfat-utils | 14:38 |
| zteam | daftykins, ahh okey :-), yes I did, that was the first thing I tried :-) | 14:39 |
| Thinker_ | daftykins, I tried formatting in NTFS and got 100% space. So definitely it is something related to reserved space.......but two different entries cause me scratching my head...actually there should be one difference, not two........... | 14:39 |
| OerHeks | Thinker_, i don't believe that, 125 gb partitioned in NTFS should also be less, like ext4 | 14:40 |
| Thinker_ | daftykins, anyways i will try formatting in exfat to see changes | 14:40 |
| Thinker_ | OerHeks, I ill show u, just wait man | 14:40 |
| Thinker_ | screenshot coming | 14:40 |
| zteam | Thinker_, What are you trying to do? :-) | 14:40 |
| Thinker_ | zteam, trying to understand how ext4 works.......basics | 14:41 |
| OerHeks | Thinker_, no need to, i know i am right. | 14:41 |
| akik | actually for a ntfs partition, there's only a 4KiB difference between the partition and the mounted file system | 14:42 |
| akik | nice to learn new things | 14:43 |
| zteam | Thinker_, Okey :-) | 14:43 |
| daftykins | actually Windows sees and states capacity differently. | 14:43 |
| Thinker_ | OerHeks, yeah u are right...I mean to say NTFS uses only 0.1 GB out of 125....but ext uses nearly 8 | 14:43 |
| daftykins | totally false | 14:44 |
| daftykins | use some real tools such as 'sudo parted -l' | 14:44 |
| === taner is now known as Guest97019 | ||
| zteam | Thinker_, there are two ways of calculating partion / disk size | 14:48 |
| Thinker_ | OK guys, I will just state more clearly. Thanks for ur patience. I am uploading two screenshots side by side to compare NTFS vs ext4....... My main question is, in case of NTFS, file manager says partition size 125 GB and available 124.9......In case of ext4, file manager says capacity 122.9 and available 116.6....So If we assume (122.9-116.6=6.3GB) is reserved, why it is showing 122.9 instead of 125....I hope u understand guys what I want to ask | 14:49 |
| Thinker_ | These are screenshots... http://imgur.com/a7lCfCA http://imgur.com/QSyTmPX | 14:50 |
| daftykins | and how does "sudo parted -l" display it? :) | 14:51 |
| daftykins | Thinker_: also, i recommend alt+print-screen in future | 14:52 |
| Thinker_ | ok | 14:52 |
| OerHeks | ext4 takes some space, 1-2% or so, for i-tables, free lists, superblocks, superblock backups, and ext4-journaling | 14:53 |
| OerHeks | don't compare it with ntfs | 14:54 |

| OerHeks | else the guys in #ubuntu-steam can tell | 17:07 |
| Bashing-om | ^74NK: You are missing the 32 bit libs to support steam . unfortunately I have no steam experience and at this point I do not know what to advise to get them installd . | 17:07 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: you cannot do a remount of the initial ramdisk root file-system | 17:09 |
| Timothy3 | So my only option is to reinstall? | 17:10 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: that is NOT THE SAME as the root file-system used in the normally running system. | 17:10 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: the initial ramdisk file-system is an embedded file-system the kernel uses to boot-strap into the real userspace root file-system. Within the initial ramdisk file-system is an /init script that takes care of finding, mounting, and then piovoting to the userspace root file-system. That's the thing you need to manually mount to work on | 17:11 |
| ^74NK | ok thank you Bashing-om for taking your time. | 17:12 |
| Timothy3 | Is there a way to do that? | 17:13 |
| ^74NK | http://pasteboard.co/2P0piE31.png | 17:13 |
| Bashing-om | ^74NK: If I steamed, I would be of greater help . I would not want to lead you down the wrong path . | 17:14 |
| OerHeks | nice crosspost, you don't read answers, likely .. | 17:14 |
| ^74NK | yeah sure, right now i'm trying to install anything from synaptic | 17:14 |
| ^74NK | but i just got an error saying "fix broken packages first" | 17:15 |
| ^74NK | ._. | 17:15 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: if /proc/cmdline is missing that suggests the /procfs isn't mounted, which should have been done as soon as the /init script started, with: "mount -t proc -o nodev,noexec,nosuid proc /proc" - you could try issuing that command now, and ten checking "ls /proc/" again after | 17:15 |
| OerHeks | tip: softwarecenter & synaptic open .. | 17:16 |
| Bashing-om | ^74NK: Heads up .. It is difficult to work from images .. best info is from the text outputs of terminal commands . | 17:16 |
| Timothy3 | TJ- now proc is no longer empty | 17:17 |
| ^74NK | Bashing-om: i'm sorry i don't know where to start is it possible to fix all packages and libraries that are missing or invalid? | 17:18 |
| Timothy3 | TJ- cat /proc/cmdline gives me "BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.13.0-71-generic root=/dev/mapper/vps01--vg-root ro recovery nomodeset" | 17:19 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: OK, so somehow you managed to boot without running the /init script!!!! That's a first in my experience! | 17:20 |
| arunpyasi | hello guys, I needed to install ffmpeg-php and ffmpeg in my ubuntu vps to run a php application. How can I setup ? Please show me an easy method | 17:20 |
| arunpyasi | I see that its unavailable in the repo and I only got ffmpeg from a PPA but not the php extension | 17:21 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: do "ls -l" do you see a file "/init" of around 7-8000 bytes listed | 17:21 |
| Bashing-om | ^74NK: It is always possible - this s 'buntu ! - .. do in a pastebin the outputs of ' sudo apt update ' and ' sudo apt upgrade ' so I have something familiar to work from . I might come up with the solution . | 17:21 |
| vfw | Lid close causes loss of access to WiFi on my HP Pavillion AB-223CL | 17:21 |
| vfw | Any ideas? | 17:21 |
| TJ- | vfw: ACPI power-saving possibly | 17:22 |
| Timothy3 | TJ- nope | 17:24 |
| Timothy3 | or wait | 17:24 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: so, it looks like either the initrd is empty or alternatively none was loaded | 17:24 |
| Timothy3 | TJ- yes | 17:24 |
| ^74NK | Bashing-om: -http://pastebin.com/jzcMWE6g | 17:25 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: phew! | 17:25 |
| Timothy3 | TJ- I thought you meant in the proc dir ^^ | 17:25 |
| ysangkok | Does Ubuntu start pulseaudio via systemd's socket activation or the old autospawn mechanism? | 17:25 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: that's the script-file that the kernel should have executed when entering recovery mode. Not entirely sure why it didn't | 17:25 |
| Moonsilence | Hi! Does someone know, in Ubuntu how to disable the initial placement of small windows sticking directly adjacent to another window? Can the inital placement of windows be more random or independant of already opened windows? | 17:25 |
| OerHeks | The following packages have been kept back: steam:i386 ,, time to run apt-get dist-upgrade | 17:26 |
| Bashing-om | ^74NK: Look'n . | 17:26 |
| OerHeks | 74nk ^ | 17:26 |
| ^74NK | yeah start after 'clear' command | 17:26 |
| ^74NK | before that i had synaptic open | 17:26 |
| Timothy3 | TJ- can I maybe edit the grub loader so it mounts with rw? | 17:27 |
| Bashing-om | ^74NK: " Could not get lock " most likely more than one instance of the package manager running ( apt, USC or synaptic ) close all out and try again . | 17:27 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: do "head -n 20 /init" and you'll see the first few lines it should have executed; you'll notice that 'mount' command for /proc, and another for sysfs and so on. Ideally you should prepare the environment by manually copying and executing those non-comment commands that appear before the line that ends "echo "Loading, please wait..." " | 17:28 |
| ^74NK | Read last 2 lines | 17:28 |
| Timothy3 | head: not found | 17:29 |
| TJ- | Timothy3: drat! I thought busybox had it as a built-in | 17:29 |
| Bashing-om | ^74NK: Uh Huh .. me slow down and look .. be back in a bit . | 17:30 |
| ^74NK | :D | 17:30 |
| ysangkok | TJ-: it depends on the busybox configuration | 17:30 |
| OerHeks | ^74NK, still no answer in ##linux ? i gave the answer a while ago .. | 17:31 |
| ^74NK | i dont know what i'm even looking for | 17:31 |
| ^74NK | currently my goal is to be able to install bittorrent | 17:31 |
| Bashing-om | ^74NK: OK, as above, concurr . run ' sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ' see if that will pull in " The following packages have been kept back: >> steam:i386 " . | 17:32 |

| irut4i | hello! i would like to set some graphical program to start after xubuntu live cd boot. is this possible? | 17:33 |
| Bashing-om | irut4i: Nope, " live cd boot. " they are not re-writeable . | 17:35 |
| truexfan81 | is it strange that i actually get decent performance from unity on my ancient netbook? | 17:35 |
| irut4i | Bashing-om: but what if i change some contents of filesystem.squashfs? | 17:35 |
| Jaddie | Bashing-om, surely it would be possible if the live cd was modified before being burnt? | 17:35 |
| truexfan81 | we talking intel atom 1.6 single core hyperthreaded cpu and intel gma950 graphics, 1GB ram | 17:35 |
| OerHeks | truexfan81, probably due to the small ssd inside | 17:36 |
| Jaddie | irut4i, that is what I was thinking, surely a pre-mod would mean anything is posible since its basically an installed copy of the OS | 17:36 |
| truexfan81 | OerHeks: its running a 250GB 4500rpm hdd | 17:36 |
| Bashing-om | irut4i: Well, one can always re-write the operating image and write that image back to a disk . | 17:36 |

| RNeville | Thx , again, Bashing-om ! :) | 18:06 |
| Bashing-om | RNeville: Good, but left is making sure that you can boot a backup -33 kernel . | 18:07 |
| akik | for example, this changes f5 to f6 and vice versa: xmodmap -e "keycode 71 = F6 F6 F6 F6 F6 F6 XF86Switch_VT_6"; xmodmap -e "keycode 72 = F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 XF86Switch_VT_5" | 18:09 |
| Tsutsukakushi | why doesn't `plymouth ask-question --prompt "stuff" | read variable; echo $variable` work in rc.local? | 18:10 |

| BlueProtoman | I'm about to nuke my PC and reinstall both Windows and Linux. However, this time I want a common partition shared between them for data that's not OS-specific (like my music, my code, my DropBox contents, etc.). Which file system should I use? | 19:36 |
| daftykins | BlueProtoman: i'd go either NTFS or exFAT | 19:37 |
| BlueProtoman | daftykins: Why one or the other? | 19:37 |
| platnorm | hello | 19:37 |
| SlidingHorn | BlueProtoman: what daftykins said...here's more info: http://askubuntu.com/questions/239320/which-file-system-do-i-select-for-sharing-files-between-windows-7-and-ubuntu-12 | 19:37 |
| daftykins | BlueProtoman: no huge edge to one over the other, exFAT will require additional packages be installed in Ubuntu... nothing much else to say | 19:38 |
| akik | is exfat support native? | 19:38 |
| akik | i mean non-fuse | 19:38 |
| BlueProtoman | daftykins: Well, I gotta be mindful of Windows, too, right? | 19:39 |
| platnorm | exit | 19:39 |
| daftykins | BlueProtoman: which reads exFAT and NTFS just fine | 19:39 |
| daftykins | hence me suggesting them | 19:39 |
| masaccio | OOOOhhhh ola chcos | 19:39 |
| artois | akik: not fuse | 19:39 |

| TJ- | Obviosly: neither. they don't move | 19:44 |
| Obviosly | TJ the answer is Ur MOMFAT is faster | 19:44 |
| artois | Obviosly: for flash, probably fat | 19:45 |
| artois | if it's a usb stick, just use plain fat until you actually have a reason to have a file greater than 4GB | 19:45 |

| Silvering | Hi everyone! I'm trying to install swift language on my ubuntu 15.10. My problem is that I receive this error message after installing swift and trying to see the version number : "cannot execute binary file : Exec format error." Any idea? | 19:53 |
| mJimmer | I run netsat -auntp and it is not showing the network as open | 19:54 |
| mJimmer | or the port I should say | 19:54 |
| mJimmer | How do I open up ports ? like say port 2020 | 19:54 |
| BlueProtoman | daftykins: Thanks! | 19:54 |
| popey | mJimmer, open the port to what? | 19:54 |
| daftykins | Silvering: run "file" on the binary in question and see what the output is | 19:54 |

| mJimmer | popey: so I have a websocket app that is trying to connect to a different server and it just keeps on saying that that connection is refused. I looked at the other server and the ports are open and able to talk from other mchines just not from Ubuntu server | 19:55 |
| Silvering | daftykins: I'm just trying to do : swift -version. | 19:56 |
| daftykins | Silvering: yes i know - and i'm saying to run 'file' on the swift binary you're executing. | 19:56 |
| daftykins | "which swift" will give its' path | 19:56 |
| popey | Silvering, you should see something like this -> swift: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, not stripped | 19:57 |
| Silvering | which swift returns : /home/ubuntu/Desktop/swift-2.2-SNAPSHOT-2015-12-01-b-ubuntu15.10/urs/bin//swift | 19:58 |
| nolsen_ | Does anyone know how to change the default greeting from unity to cinnamon? | 19:58 |
| popey | no, that's ls, you want "file" | 19:58 |
| popey | like this:- | 19:58 |
| popey | alan@deep-thought:~/Downloads/sw/swift-2.2-SNAPSHOT-2015-12-01-b-ubuntu15.10/usr/bin$ file swift | 19:58 |

| mJimmer | nolsen_: not sure what the default for lightdm is | 20:00 |
| mJimmer | nolsen_: like if I was using gdm3 and I wanted to use sddm I would do something like sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 | 20:01 |
| Silvering | ok so 'file' returns ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, not stripped | 20:01 |

| Silvering | 32bits | 20:01 |
| popey | Silvering, with a username like "ubuntu" it looks like you're on a live iso? | 20:01 |
| popey | thats why! | 20:01 |

| 21WAAF051 | Any Ubuntu flavors. | 20:02 |
| popey | you can't run 64-bit binaries on 32-bit linux | 20:02 |

| nolsen_ | I'm not running that command. | 20:02 |
| popey | Silvering, or the 64-bit version of ubuntu, yeah | 20:03 |

| mJimmer | Ben64: but the ports are open in iptables and also on remote machine (which is on local) | 20:16 |
| lotuspsychje | 21WAAF051: try 14.04.3 mate | 20:16 |
| Ben64 | mJimmer: yep, sounds like networking issue. connection refused = port isn't open ... maybe try ##networking | 20:16 |
| ioria | mJimmer, maybe a ssl certificate issue .... | 20:16 |
| azizLIGHT | lotuspsychje: how do i know which of these belongs to a ppa or which of those belongs to the other ppa (xorg-edgers vs nvidia graphics-drivers) | 20:16 |
| lotuspsychje | 21WAAF051: or a nomodeset on 15.04 | 20:17 |

| mJimmer | but I could I guess but I do not think that that is a issue | 20:17 |

| azizLIGHT | ok | 20:18 |

| BluesKaj | Bassem, are you on live-media ubuntu, like a usb or cd ? | 20:23 |
| Bassem | BluesKaj, yes i want to install it | 20:24 |
| TJ- | BluesKaj: Bassem is currently running the Ubuntu installer, but it is not discovering the already-installed Windows 7, so no way to proceed with a dula-boot isntall | 20:24 |
| TJ- | Bassem: run "sudo os-prober" see what it tells you | 20:24 |
| Bassem | online it says he easiest way to fix the problem is to run fixparts, which comes with Ubuntu in the gdisk package | 20:24 |
| Bassem | is this right? | 20:24 |
| BluesKaj | so he has no ext4 parttition to install ubuntu | 20:25 |
| Bassem | TJ-, it says nothing | 20:25 |
| TJ- | Bassem: OK, well that is the same tool the installer uses to discover existing OSs, so that explains why | 20:25 |
| davemwi | hello. longtime Fedora user here, trying out Ubuntu. I'm having trouble with my CD-ROM/DVD drive being recognized. The only way I've been able to find a hint of the drive is with dmesg, but I dont' know where to go from here. | 20:26 |
| TJ- | Bassem: so, now let's find out what is on the system. do "sudo apt-get install pastebinit", then do "pastebinit <( sudo parted -l )" and tell us the URL of the pastebin it gives you | 20:26 |
| TJ- | davemwi: usually there's a symlink to such devices as /dev/dvd, /dev/cdrom, /dev/cdrw, /dev/sr0 and similar | 20:27 |
| davemwi | TJ-: yep, not seeing anything like that... | 20:28 |
| Bashing-om | TJ-: Bassem If this is a UEFI machine, and attempting to boot ubuntu UEFI with Windows installed leagcy, would this be the result " currently has no detected operating systems " ? | 20:28 |
| Bassem | TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13977629/ | 20:28 |
| Bassem | Bassem, so what can i do? | 20:28 |
| Bassem | Bassem, the motherboard is asrock z68 pro 3 | 20:29 |

| ioria | davemwi, sudo lshw -C disk | 20:29 |

| Gaz_ | I'm running ubuntu server and both my root and boot partitions are full so I booted ubuntu live and used gparted to resize the root partition, applied the change and checked it showed the new size. When i boot back into ubuntu server the login screen is still telling me the old size, what am i missing to resize the partitions? | 20:29 |

| lotuspsychje | Bassem: virtual machine | 20:52 |
| TJ- | Bassem: OK, so that basically confirms the 3 partitions are NTFS, but as we saw earlier os-prober cannot detect the installed OS. That suggests there's something unusual in the layout of the Windows file-systems, since os-prober looks for very specific files to be present to classify a file-system as containing an operating system | 20:52 |
| ioria | Bassem, you have Win 7 on gpt ? have you an EFI mb ? | 20:53 |

| Jack3k3 | Hi Im having some issues with dual screens. Firstly, its setting the wrong one as the primary monitor, which is easy to change by runnign the xrandr command however once I do so I have some weird behavior | 21:01 |
| Jack3k3 | Example matlab is open on primary monitor, if I right click in matlab, the right click menu opens on the secondary monitor always | 21:02 |
| Bassem | TJ-, i typed sudo parted -l and thats what i got | 21:02 |
| Jack3k3 | Any ideas how to fix this? I'm assuming theres some confusion between the primray/secondary monitor | 21:02 |
| TJ- | Bassem OK, don't worry about the partition table for now, what we want to know about is what is in those file-systems | 21:02 |
| Bassem | TJ-, ok im with you | 21:02 |

Isn't there anything that I can do? Seems so wrong that the drive can be used to setup Ubuntu, but after that I can't use it. | 21:22 |
| daftykins | davemwi: if it worked to install, and the BIOS recognises it, it doesn't need any channel selection changing - also this was only for old PATA (IDE) drives, not more modern SATA ones made in the last many years | 21:23 |

| davemwi | daftykins: then maybe there's something I can do to get it to recognize the drive? I've tried several commands at the shell and the only one that ever revealed anything was dmesg | 21:24 |

| daftykins | davemwi: so what discs have you tested in there? | 21:28 |
| TJ- | Bassem: OK, as Bashing-om suggested much earlier, the cause is confirmed in that log: "20microsoft: debug: Skipping legacy bootloaders on UEFI system" - it means that on that system Windows is booting in Legacy/BIOS mode, but you've booted the Ubuntu installer in UEFI mode | 21:29 |

| Bassem | TJ-, so what to do | 21:29 |
| daftykins | davemwi: put back in the ubuntu disc so you can see the data mounted? | 21:29 |
| TJ- | Bassem: so the obvious - although arguably not the best - solution is to reboot and ensure the system boots the installer in Legacy/BIOS mode too | 21:29 |

| Bassem | TJ-, my motherboard is asrock z68 pro 3 | 21:30 |
| TJ- | Bassem: doing that will mean the Linux GRUB bootloader will replace the Windows boot-strap code that is currently in sector 0 of the disk. I'd suggest we take a back-up of that sector and put it somewhere safe so its easy to restore if things go wrong | 21:30 |

| nico103 | gparted doesn't seem to be that smart | 21:41 |
| nico103 | so... should I just delete that extended partition? does it hold any boot artifacts? | 21:42 |
| Bassem | TJ-, ok i'll give it a try | 21:42 |
| TJ- | ashic: I'm not sure what solution those users found; someone else here may have taken note | 21:42 |
| ashic | TJ: fingers crossed... | 21:43 |
| TJ- | ashic: you could use some test tools to see if raw events are being received from the device, but ignored by the X server event system | 21:43 |
| TJ- | ashic: if you can identify which device it is, use "sudo evtest /dev/input/eventX" to test it where 'X' is the number of the correct node in /dev/input/event* | 21:46 |
| ashic | TJ: xinput test 15 (15 is the device id) shows no events when touchpad is used | 21:46 |
| TJ- | ashic: right, so try evtest, find out if there are any events | 21:47 |
| invapid2 | is there anyway to get a package deleted on ubuntu's launchpad | 21:48 |
| invapid2 | (if it's completely out of date, so people don't download it) | 21:48 |
| Ben64 | what package | 21:48 |
| TJ- | ashic: the other user 'limp' (I found their issue in my logs from 5th Dec) had multiple event* devices for the same physical device. In the /var/log/Xorg.0.log it said something like 'Ignoring duplicate input device' - it had jsut used the 1st input it found, rather than the input that delivered the events | 21:49 |
| invapid2 | hackrf - but I've only confirmed it's bad on ubuntu 14 LTS | 21:49 |
| TJ- | ashic: I think the solution was a custom /etc/X11/xorg.conf entry for the input device | 21:49 |
| invapid2 | at least for 14 LTS - the correct thing to do right now is install from source | 21:49 |
| Ben64 | invapid2: how is it bad, where is it from, are you the maintainer | 21:49 |
| ashic | TJ: hmm...checking after i get evtest running. seems like evtest /dev/input/event15 shows some hdmi stuff, while xinput list has touchpad as 15. so might well be the cause. | 21:50 |
| ashic | TJ: Interesting...log shows: [ 63.032] (--) synaptics: DLL06E5:01 06CB:7A13 UNKNOWN: touchpad found [ 63.033] (--) synaptics: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: touchpad found | 21:51 |
| TJ- | ashic: I noticed the eventX numbers can be different to the device ID, so dont' get caught out | 21:51 |
| TJ- | ashic: right, so that suggests its USB-connect with device ID 06CB:7A13 | 21:52 |
| ashic | TJ: Seems touchpad is registered twice...one as Unknown and once as Synaptics | 21:52 |
| TJ- | ashic: right, this sounds very like what I was describing. check the Xorg.0.log for those 'duplicate ignored' messages | 21:52 |
| Guest17422 | So I'm trying to add a mail account through the ubuntu online accounts thing. Can I specify what port to connect to SMTP over? | 21:53 |
| invapid2 | Ben64: just submitted a bug report for it on launchpad, perhaps someone with proper permissions would remove it | 21:56 |
| invapid2 | don't really understand the package system | 21:56 |

| stillfaraway12 | TJ-* | 22:05 |
| TJ- | Bassem: OK, so option 2 is the correct one. the 'white dash' sounds like the ISO image hasn't been loaded correctly, or doesn't contain the correct Legacy/BIOS bootstrap code. How did you write the ISO to the USB ? | 22:05 |
| lotuspsychje | stillfaraway12: join #freenode for such issues | 22:05 |
| TJ- | stillfaraway12: you'd best ask in #freenode for those kinds of network issues | 22:06 |
| stillfaraway12 | Ok | 22:06 |
| Bassem | TJ-, i download the iso from ubuntu site and use and application in it's tutorial on how to make usb bootable | 22:06 |

| TJ- | Bassem: did you use a Window 7 tool to write the ISO to the USB device? | 22:08 |
| Bassem | TJ-, i used that application Universal USB Installer | 22:08 |
| staticsn0w | Bassem ok, you arent a mac user, good :D | 22:09 |
| staticsn0w | all you have to do is download unetbootin and follow the instructions | 22:09 |
| ashic__ | Bassem: had some fun with usb, pcie, uefi. had to do this: uefi boot in bios, then uefi boot to ubuntu live usb>try without install>from OS install. as soon a files copied from usb and install starts, pull the usb disk. this is the only way i managed to get it all to work. (ubuntu 15.10) | 22:09 |
| Bassem | ashic__, what do you mean | 22:10 |
| === stillfaraway12 is now known as noon | ||

| ubottu | Voyage: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea.

| TJ- | Bassem: I don't use Windows so I'm not sure; others here will be able to tell you better. Anyone know the best Windows tool/method for writing a pure ISO image to USB, rather than something that tries to insert its own bootloader? | 22:16 |
| linux|newb | I've made a bootable USB for 15.10 and it works fine on one pc 1 but not pc 2. pc 2, after selecting usb boot medium just takes me to a flashing prompt, accepting no keyboard input | 22:17 |

| lotuspsychje | TJ-: universal usb installer performs pretty well normally | 22:17 |
| Voyage | lotuspsychje, ya, I know, but talking in perspective of git? | 22:17 |

| Voyage | Can anyone tell me how to make the text color of my text and others as white? I can got to the colors section but I cant find the exact thing | 22:18 |
| TJ- | lotuspsychje: care to try and help Bassem ? The USB booted in UEFI mode but shows flashing cursor in Legacy/BIOS mode, which is what he needs | 22:18 |
| TJ- | Hitechcg: oh nirvana :D !! | 22:18 |
| linux|newb | TJ-: stands to reason as no old distros boot from it anymore either... and they have in the past | 22:18 |
| Hitechcg | Also, if not that, I prefer Rufus. | 22:18 |
| linux|newb | TJ-: any way I can definitively check? | 22:19 |
| lotuspsychje | TJ-: im no dualboot specialist myself, but blink cursor useually means fastboot or secureboot not disabled | 22:19 |
| lotuspsychje | TJ-: sounds like a job for EriC^^ :p | 22:19 |
| nolsen | MonkeyDust: Well when I try to find it in a different repository, all the repositories end up with a 404 on apt-get update. | 22:19 |
| ashic_ | TJ: so...I can see two devices are vying for the touchpad, but in evtest, neither is receiving any input from the touchpad. next step? | 22:20 |
| TJ- | linux|newb: I added a possible workaroud for that to the isolinux/syslinux boot-loader back in 2009 - not sure if you'll have it on that image though. Reboot, holding down the Ctrl key all the time and see if that forces it. It Ctrl doesn't seem to make an improvement, reboot again and hold down the Shift key | 22:20 |
| Hitechcg | I've had to use dd (on Linux) to make bootable USBs lately because *cough* the built-in USB creator is broken | 22:20 |
| * linux|newb has tried shift but not ctrl - brb | 22:20 | |

| Tsutsukakushi | IKilledJad: might want to try that | 22:50 |
| auronandace | IKilledJad: xchat is no longer developed, perhaps you should move to hexchat. for general irc help you can ask in #freenode | 22:50 |
| Tsutsukakushi | so, usermod -U didn't work on a passwordless account... | 22:51 |
| Tsutsukakushi | how does one do it then | 22:51 |
| IKilledJad | well Im really just looking for somebody to walk me through using it and setting up my own mini server possibly for a few friends and i while we game | 22:52 |
| Tsutsukakushi | auronandace: something not being actively developed doesn't mean that people should stop using it | 22:52 |
| Tsutsukakushi | IKilledJad: xchat is just a client, not a server | 22:52 |
| IKilledJad | I understand. But someone has to know how to set up their own servers to use the client on a completely private channel, am i wrong? | 22:53 |
| Tsutsukakushi | IKilledJad: as you i would probably set up a mumble server, it's easier and also has voice chat if you want that | 22:53 |
| IKilledJad | is the mumble distribution for linux any different then for windows? Ive tried mumble on my windows laptop and had nothing but trouble with everything from simply setting it up to voice and sound not being transmitted or recieved on both ends of my chat | 22:54 |
| Tsutsukakushi | IKilledJad: it's years since i tried mumble on windows, but i haven't had any problems setting mumble up on my linux boxes | 22:55 |
| IKilledJad | awesome, thanks | 22:55 |
| IKilledJad | ill try that again | 22:55 |
| IKilledJad | any other options just in case? | 22:55 |
| Tsutsukakushi | also setting up a whole ircd just for a few friends is a bit of an overkill, would be easier to just make a invite only channel on some network | 22:56 |

| TJ- | Bashing-om: yes, I think that is the next step. Bassem do as Bashing-om recommends, reboot the installer and on its boot menu choose 'check disk for defects' or whatever its called on 14.04 | 23:29 |
| TJ- | Bashing-om: I think I know why it is doing it, its due to the left-over GPT metadata on that disk, but because its unclear how the disk got into that state I'm reluctant to recommend zapping the GPT metadata | 23:30 |

| Bashing-om | EmeraldExplorer: Might try to "purge" rather than remove .. as purge will remove the system ( not userspace ) config files .. then install ?? | 23:33 |
| Bassem | TJ-, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13981351/ | 23:33 |
| TJ- | Bassem: good, it is installed, so we don't need to install the package first. We'll now 'zap' the unwanted GPT structures from the disk: "sudo sgdisk --zap /dev/sda" | 23:35 |
| ignis-fatuus | this is what I get when I shut go to shut down...any idea? http://i.imgur.com/KI7oaqy.jpg | 23:36 |
| TJ- | Bassem: after that, step back in the installer GUI then try to have it detect an OS again | 23:36 |
| gurn56 | hello! i need help with changing xubuntu's squashfs filesystem. when i unpack, change and repack squashfs fs, there is problem that the new file is not booting anymore. i also tried to unpack and repack the same contents, but it's the same problem with it. any suggestion what to do? thank you in advance! | 23:36 |
| Bassem | TJ-, will any of those command rune my disk? | 23:36 |
| Bassem | TJ-, will it mess up my hard disk? | 23:38 |
| andy1 | hi | 23:38 |
| TJ- | Bassem: the 'zap' command will zero out the GPT primary and secondary headers from sda. We already know the GPT partition table is empty and the disk is only using the MBR, and I've checked that the first partition starts at sector 2048 and so can't be affected by the wiping of the primary GPT (which is at the start of the disk from sectors 1 through 33) | 23:38 |
| TJ- | Bassem: the secondary GPT header is at the end of the disk, and partition 3 ends way before the end of the disk | 23:38 |
| Bassem | Invalid partition data! | 23:39 |
| Bassem | GPT data structures destroyed! You may now partition the disk using fdisk or | 23:39 |
| Bassem | other utilities. | 23:39 |
| TJ- | Bassem: ok, so now back to the GUI installer, step it back and then forward to detect OS again | 23:40 |
| TJ- | Bassem: you might have to quit the installer program and restart it for this to work | 23:40 |
| Bassem | TJ-, now it detect it | 23:40 |
| TJ- | Bassem: At last!!!! | 23:41 |
| akik | that's just amazing | 23:41 |
| TJ- | Bassem: you can finally get on now | 23:41 |
| Bassem | TJ-, yup :) | 23:41 |
| TJ- | akik: WHAT a bug in ubiquity though | 23:41 |
| Bassem | TJ-, hope you can offer bit more help through installing | 23:41 |
| akik | i wish there was a flow chart for uefi & mbr dual booting | 23:41 |
| TJ- | Bassem: my brain is exhausted I'll let others do that... besides which I rarely use the installer myself so not terribly familiar with it | 23:42 |
| Hink | Does Ubuntu (Server 15.10) not have chkconfig anymore? | 23:42 |
| Bashing-om | TJ-: Now has some more tweak'n to do in the bug squad . | 23:42 |
| Bassem | ok | 23:42 |
| TJ- | akik: there is... I wrote one, Bashing-om where did I put that boot overview? | 23:42 |
| * TJ- doesn't know his own web site! | 23:42 | |
| akik | i've only done the mbr way | 23:43 |
| Bashing-om | TJ-: Hang on one .. I have it handy ! | 23:43 |
| TJ- | Bashing-om: I knew you would :D | 23:43 |
| Bassem | http://imgur.com/E9nBmyU | 23:43 |
| Bassem | i want to install it on the free sda2 | 23:43 |
| Bashing-om | Bassem: See: https://iam.tj/kb/pc/boot/#a_bootloader . | 23:43 |
| Bassem | Bashing-om, i didnt understand any thing of | 23:44 |
| akik | thanks | 23:44 |
| TJ- | Bashing-om: thanks, I will bookmark it myself now | 23:44 |
| Voyage_ | I am getting this message when I try to install skype. I am using kubuntu 14.04 lts. Any clue? The "skype" package could not be marked for installation or upgrade: | 23:44 |
| Voyage_ | Depends: skype, but it is a virtual package | 23:44 |
| Bassem | its my first time on ubuntu | 23:44 |
| physicz | join #physics | 23:45 |
| physicz | oops | 23:45 |
| physicz | forgot / | 23:45 |
| Bassem | i heard it need something like swap area | 23:45 |
| physicz | not spamming :D | 23:45 |
| andy1 | i just downloaded this unix file | 23:45 |
| andy1 | x-unikey-1.0.4.tar.bz2 | 23:45 |
| andy1 | how do i unzip it? | 23:45 |
| TJ- | Bassem: I'd recommend you make sda2 LVM, then you can create multiple file-system inside it | 23:45 |
| MonkeyDust | !zip | andy1 | 23:45 |
| ubottu | andy1: Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME), Ark (KDE), or Xarchiver (XFCE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression | 23:45 |
| Bassem | TJ-, what do you mean? | 23:45 |
| TJ- | andy1: "tar -xf x-unikey-1.0.4.tar.bz2" | 23:46 |
| Bassem | TJ-, sda2 is 100GB for ubuntu | 23:46 |
| Bassem | do i need to make swap area? | 23:46 |
| Bassem | or just install it on sda2 | 23:46 |
| TJ- | Bassem: LVM == Logical Disk Management. It's a container format, much more flexible than partitions, where file-systems are inside 'Logical Volumes' (LVs), and multiple LVs are contained in a single 'Volume Group' (VG). VGs have 1 or more 'Physical Volumes' (PVs), in your case /dev/sda2 would be the PV | 23:48 |
| Tsutsukakushi | how do i create passwordless user, there is no passwd -uf and usermod -U doesn't work if it's passwordless... | 23:48 |
| ignis-fatuus | need help with system hanging at shutdown | 23:48 |
| Tsutsukakushi | ? | 23:48 |
| gke9 | hello everyone, I cannot change permissions of a folder with gksudo. I cannot save a file to that folder, either, for 'insufficient user rights'. | 23:48 |
| TJ- | Bassem: as to the installer, I'm not sure if in manual mode you can configure for LVM in the way I'm recommending. I know the automated install options offer an LVM install though | 23:49 |
| Bassem | TJ-, sda2 and sda3 are same color | 23:50 |
| Voyage_ | I am getting this message when I try to install skype. I am using kubuntu 14.04 lts. Any clue? The "skype" package could not be marked for installation or upgrade: | 23:50 |
| Voyage_ | Depends: skype, but it is a virtual package | 23:50 |
| TJ- | Tsutsukakushi: does "passwd --delete" do what you want? | 23:50 |
| TJ- | Bassem: you need to re-assign the empty partition (/dev/sda2 I think you said) as LVM | 23:51 |
| TJ- | Bassem: with sda2 selected, press the "Change..." button | 23:51 |
| TJ- | Bassem: there should then be an option to select the file-system type, and hopefully on the drop-down list you should find 'LVM' as an option | 23:53 |
| Bassem | TJ-, then ?? which chooice is for lvm | 23:53 |
| SchrodingersScat | gke9: that seems like two different questions. if you want to change the permissions of the directory you can use chmod and change ownership with chown, if you need to edit a file within it, then something like gksudo gedit /path/to/file should suffice. | 23:53 |
| Bassem | TJ-, theres not | 23:53 |
| akik | i think it's called physical volume (lvm) | 23:53 |
| TJ- | Bassem: that's annoying. If there definitely is not we'll have to get that done manually from a terminal | 23:54 |
| Bassem | TJ-, i think when i partitioned the harddisk i made c:\ primery and the rest is logic | 23:55 |
| gke9 | SchrodingersScat, but I was always able to change them both via gksudo in file manager, by changing both the folder permissions and those of enclosed files. | 23:55 |
| Bassem | then creat two partions d and e in the logic | 23:55 |
| TJ- | Bassem: that has nothing to do with LVM though | 23:56 |
| Bassem | TJ-, | 23:56 |
| TJ- | Bassem: an msdos 'logical' partition is an entirely different thing to LVM, so don't let it confuse you :) | 23:56 |
| TJ- | Bassem: and the msdos partition table didn't show any extended or logical partitions | 23:56 |
| TJ- | Bassem: so, if the GUI doesn't offer LVM we'll do it manually | 23:57 |
| Bassem | i have ext4,3,2,btrfs,jfs,xfs,fat15,fat32,ntfs,swap area,physical volume | 23:57 |
| Bassem | thats all what i get when i click change | 23:58 |
| TJ- | Bassem: its as akik said "physical volume" | 23:59 |
| andy1 | i want to build by typing ./configure | 23:59 |
| TJ- | Bassem: that'll be an LVM 'PV' which is what we want | 23:59 |
