maldridgegreetings all, I've got an issue with cron where jobs registered with @reboot don't get run on the first boot after the installer finishes;  is there a good way to ensure that first-boot tasks get run?02:03
noahbentusi@nicomachus thanks. it tells me "TypeError: Main.lookingGlass is null"02:03
nicomachusnoahbentusi: sorry, I'm not familiar with the program.02:04
m_wynnmaldridge: have you looked into Systemd timers?02:05
yanivkalfabaam its fixed02:05
nicomachus\o/02:06
maldridgem_wynn: that sounds like massive overkill, I just want to run a single task on first boot; I believe this could be related to a possible bug in ubuntu's cron hinted at in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=153065202:08
nicomachusmaldridge: what are you trying to run on startup, and how are you setting it up?02:13
maldridgenicomachus: at the end of my preseed I run a preseed/late_command that dumps a line into /etc/crontab to on reboot fetch the setup script and run it.  After booting this isn't run until manually rebooting the machine02:14
maldridgeI am trying to run a setup script that configures the machine beyond what is possible in the preseed02:15

maldridgenicomachus: any suggestions?02:25
nicomachusmaldridge: no, I don't really have a clear idea of what you're trying to do, sorry.02:25
maldridgeah, allow me to clarify: once a machine finishes the automated install via a preseed, there are still additional tasks that need to be run.  I have all these tasks in a script.  I would like that script to run automatically the first time the computer starts up.  Currently I have to manually restart a machine after it first boots for the script to run but I want a way around this.02:31
nicomachusyou have your cron job set to run on "reboot", correct?02:33
maldridgeyes, but it doesn't run until I reboot the machine02:33
nicomachusYes, I don't believe the first boot after install is considered a "reboot".02:33
maldridgethat is my conclusion as well.  Is there a way to either force an automated reboot, or a better place to start the setup script from02:34
nicomachusyou could stick it in /etc/init/ as a .conf, I believe.02:36
nicomachusbut I'd prefer to get a second opinion on that from EriC^^ or Bashing-om if they're around02:36
julian-delphikiThat sounds like a valid solution... sounds to me like you're doing something hacky tho02:37
nicomachussounds like he's installing on a bunch of machines and wants an automated solution to either install updates or software needed for the use case.02:38
julian-delphikisounds to me like he should use some real automation :)02:38
nicomachusmeh. if it works, it works.02:40
julian-delphikiJust saying there are easier ways and literally frameworks written around this problem.02:41
OerHekslandscape should be able to, no?02:41
maldridgeI am using real automation, but I need to start that automation somehow02:41
julian-delphikimost things do that with, install SSH server, ssh to server once its booted :)02:42
maldridgeyes, and that is what I'm doing, but I still need some way to kick off the automated pull of the config sets02:42
maldridgewhich is on the machine the install just ran on02:42
maldridgewhich would seem to be an issue with cron not catching the first boot as a reboot02:43
julian-delphikimaldridge, i'd just create an init script that removes itself, or touches like /.setup_complete or something when it is done (which your script then checks)02:46
cyberI'm looking for some advice on the best way to approach an issue I have. I need to resize some partitions, because I didn't give linux enough space when I decided I wanted to dual boot.02:47
=== as is now known as rs01
=== rs01 is now known as rs0112332
maldridgejulian-delphiki: can you suggest any resource for that?  I'm thinking something that could run out of rc.local  once the first pull happens, proper daemons get started for this02:47
cyberMy thinking is: Log into Windows (which is encrypted with bitlocker and resize the windows partition from there. Just unallocate the space or make it FAT32 or something.02:47
julian-delphikimaldridge, mind asking me what you're using for automation?02:48
maldridgejulian-delphiki: ansible02:48
cyberthen log back into Ubuntu and use the disk utils to format it for ext402:48
cyberIdeally I would get an extra 75GB or so -- then I could migrate my home folder over to that?02:49
nicomachuscyber: to resize a partition you will need to use a live version, either on a CD or USB02:49
xanguacyber and backup is always a good idea, if you have important data02:49
nicomachuscyber: you cannot resize a partition on a disk while you are using that disk.02:49
cyberohh gotcha. I should have the usb stick with ubuntu on it laying around here somewhere02:49
julian-delphikiAh, okay, maldridge. I'd just create an /etc/init/something.conf file02:50
cyberI'm wondering if I will have any issues unallocating space in windows though02:50
julian-delphikiI wouldn't recommend using rc.local02:50
maldridgeok, I'll work on that02:50
cyberdoesn't windows freak out with too many partitions ?02:50
cyberor is that a hard disk limitation02:50
maldridgecyber: that is a bios limitation generally02:50
maldridge(massive generalization)02:50
cyber@maldridge -- will windows allow me to partition it while I use it ?02:54
nicomachusno02:54
maldridgeno OS can do that02:54
OerHeksbitlocker .. ask in ##windows02:54
cyberhow am I supposed to resize an encrypted partition -- isn't that a great way to lose data?02:54
xanguabackup02:55

BlueProtomansomsip: The ISO is only 1.4 GB04:09

ronburgendyi think its because you are trying to install a 32bit package on a 64bit os, in which case you'll have to install some other things before installing or compiling it04:44

I used the Scarlett MixControl WIndows application to set input 2 to high-impedance/instrument mode; however, when I boot back  into Ubuntu Studio, input resets back to line level, indicated by the instrument light on the front panel switching off.

raffleOfKinniansronburgendy:  if it's mounted, i won't be able to see it's contents, right?05:47
ronburgendyraffleOfKinnians, if you've been using a program that uses something like dd then or imgburn it will be all fucked up05:48
raffleOfKinniansYep ronburgendy, I can see it in Gparted. Listed as /dev/sdb1 NTFS file system05:48
raffleOfKinniansronburgendy:  i've been trying a few programs, it's definitely possible05:49
raffleOfKinnianshmm05:49
ronburgendyraffleOfKinnians, just delete everything on there and reformat it with gparted05:49
raffleOfKinniansok, will do ronburgendy .05:50
ronburgendyraffleOfKinnians, you might have to umount it to delete anything that is on there05:50
ronburgendyraffleOfKinnians, then take the stick out and throw it back on the computer05:50
raffleOfKinniansok ronburgendy05:50

ronburgendydo you have any unallocated space?06:05
TrivialGravitasnope06:05
ronburgendyI think if its a logical partition you can shrink it? I don't know though. gparted will not let you if you can't do it or not.06:06
TrivialGravitasPutting in windows wasn't on my agenda but things happened06:06
TrivialGravitashmm, gparted says no, but that may be because it's mounted, I'll have to boot to USB to look at it06:09

TJ-sruli: are you still trying to figure out how to cause a command to be run when the user of an ecrytpfs-ecnrypted $HOME logs-out ?10:46
sruliTJ-: yes10:46
sruliTJ-: i know how to run it, i need a way to allow the script to complete before logoff10:46
TJ-sruli: "man 1 bash" and see INVOCATION and FILES: ~/.bash_logout10:47
sruliTJ-: thats when logging out of terminal (ssh) not from gui10:47
TJ-sruli: It's when bash ends a *login* session10:48
TJ-sruli: otherwise, you need to use something in the Xsession config since you're wanting to do something on close of the user's session10:49
TJ-sruli: alternatively, you may be able to use "dbus-launch --exit-with-session ..." to start your script at log-in, have a TRAP in the script for exit, and run your commands from the TRAP10:50
arild_testing out this10:52
TJ-arild_: we see you10:53
arild_:)10:54
sruliTJ-: i already tested using bash_logout, dosnt work for gui session, can you help me some more with dbus-launch exit? where do i do what?10:55
TJ-sruli: Then the easiest would be to add a 'waiting' script to the log-in itself. This script contains a "trap SIGTERM" and "trap SIGKILL" that both call the function you want to execute. The only other thing this script does is run an endless while loop with a sleep inside it10:56
sruliTJ-: the endless loop wont effect performance, right? and do u know where i can find a sample script?10:59
RepThis1anyone try cbtnuggets?11:05
TJ-sruli: right, a "sleep 10" would keep it idle for 10 seconds at a time. I'm wondering though if there's something in the PAM config you could use. For example, there's pam_exec (see "man 8 pam_exec"), and there are many other PAM modules. That way you can guarantee your script runs no matter how the user logs in11:05
idxs11:07

RickyB98i configured postfix to use Maildir, however mails are still going to mbox.. how do i change that?11:08
TJ-sruli: your script would then only need to differentiate between a LOGIN and LOGOUT. I think PAM sets env vars you can check for that11:08
TJ-sruli: as in " if [ "$PAM_TYPE" = "close_session" ]; then ..."11:09
sruliTJ-: was about to type that, so that line takes care of when to exec, right?11:10
slidinghornRickyB98: sudo postconf -e "home_mailbox = Maildir/"        then restart postfix  (Source:  http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/67689/linux-use-maildir-instead-of-mbox11:10
TJ-sruli: right... your script will get called twice, at open_session and close_session, and you have it only react to the close_session11:10

RickyB98no, sorry.. reading11:14
RickyB98slidinghorn, fmaster user does not exist.. is it supposed to exist?11:15
TJ-sruli: as you're tying this to ecryptfs, I'd put it where-ever you find "pam_ecryptfs.so unwrap". Do "grep 'pam_ecryptfs\.so unwrap' /etc/pam.d/*" to find those.11:16
slidinghornRickyB98: I'd recommend following this guide, as it's the official documentation - with it, it will have you set up your fmaster mailbox:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto11:16
TJ-sruli: your script might also want to check that the current user does in fact have a mounted encrypted home, but checking /proc/mounts11:16
RickyB98okay thanks11:17
RickyB98i guess it's due to procmail11:17

anabainWill using autofs avoid the nasty kde desktop hanging I get whenever I shutdown my other nfs sharing box?11:22
anabainIf not, is there anything that can be done in order to avoid it?11:23
TJ-sruli: if there is no reference to ecryptfs in PAM then it's not being used, unless you've set it up in some very weird way11:23
sruliTJ-: i set it up at sys install time11:24
TJ-sruli: well, for it to work there need to be pam_ecryptfs.so references in those /etc/pam.d/ configs11:28
TJ-sruli: ecryptfs-utils includes the PAM template in the file /usr/share/pam-configs/ecryptfs-utils11:28

RickyB98i configured sasl on postfix and dovecot, but my client can still use SMTP without logging in.. authentication works, but no login works too11:34
RickyB98how can i restrict that?11:35
TJ-sruli: only the entries where the argument is "unwrap" ... so when your script triggers it should be related11:35
RepThis1TJ-: i found a solution, however it is not always consistent. it involves adding a .css file in the .local/ firefox profile to try to reconfigure the html ccs i imagine11:35
sruliTJ-: unwrap is in common-auth & common-session11:36
TJ-RickyB98: you might find answers in #ubuntu-server for postfix issues11:36
RickyB98okay thanks11:36
TJ-sruli: yes. the common-password is to ensure the wrapper password stays in sync11:36
oIohi all11:37
TJ-sruli: there should be an 'unwrap' entry in common-session-noninteractive as well11:38
sruliTJ-: so i put it in both? (common-session & common password?)11:38
TJ-sruli: not in -password, only in the files that pass the 'unwrap' option11:38
sruliTJ-: i am ignoring the non-interactive as ecrypt-fs does not mount on a non gui session. common-pass also has unwrap11:39
sruliTJ-: sorry, typo, common-auth and common-session have unwrap, not common-password11:41

TJ-sruli: "invalid ELF header" - it expects an *exectuable*, so you need to call the *shell* executable, passing it the name of the script, as per the example in "man 8 pam_exec" I referred you to earlier12:40
sruliTJ-: oh, so when i used 'quiet' in auth.log it complained that file dosent exists, i remove 'quiet' so it complains elf header12:41

OneThatLearnsIs there a easy way to make it so that when you sftp into server (sftp://user@domain.tld), the default directory will be a predefined one other than the default /home/username/ ? I would like to have /home/username/ftp12:50
konalohello all12:52
gdi2kOneThatLearns, sftp://user@domain.tld/username/ftp ?12:55
shookeeshi12:55
gdi2kOneThatLearns, sftp://user@domain.tld/home/username/ftp ?12:56
OneThatLearnsgdi2k: That is correct, can use that connection, was wondering if sftp://user@domain.tld could go automatically to a predefined location without specifying in the connection url12:57
_ryan_dcrouch2 it's slidinghorn...on my phone outside... what were you originally trying to do when you came across this problem?12:57
gdi2kOneThatLearns, in nautilus / thunar?12:57
_ryan_OneThatLearns yes, it will take you to the user's home directory12:58
dcrouch2_ryan_, apt-get upgrade12:58
gdi2kOneThatLearns, you could just drag a shortcut to the shortcut bar on the left once you are in the right location12:58
_ryan_dcrouch2 were you trying to update something specific? What had you installed / changed since your last update(s)?12:59
vijayanandhello12:59
OneThatLearns_ryan_ : yes but i want another predefined path than just homefolder i want Homedir/ftp gdi2k : this will be independent of file explorers. was hoping one could use both filezilla, sftp in terminal, nautilus. a new preset default folder13:00

stangelandHi. I am running a ubuntu system and sometimes the X-server seems to suddently just crash. Machine becomes totally unresponsive, however i can still SSH to the machine and background processes etc. also keep running. Is there any way to debug what is actually causing this?13:01
_ryan_stangeland anything in /var/log/x-session-errors?13:02
gdi2kOneThatLearns, that would be a server side adjustment then - I'm not sure if SSH has that option, but it does have a very large and thorough man page...13:03
slidinghornstangeland & dcrouch2  I'm back at my computer  (was under _ryan_ )13:03
TJ-stangeland: _ryan_ that's (for the user) "$HOME/.xsession-errors" or (for the X server) "/var/log/Xorg.0.log"13:03
OneThatLearnsgdi2k: yes it is server side, i have tried configuring sshd_config file using the chroot option, but that is more for limiting the ftp users access13:04
slidinghornTJ-: ah, thanks for the correction (cc stangeland)13:04

slidinghorndcrouch2: do tell!13:04
OneThatLearnsgdi2k: thx but i want this configured server side13:05
dcrouch2Too early to tell, there's a different on now.  But basically, dpkg --purge --force-depends libssl1.0.0:amd64  And re-installed.13:05
OneThatLearnsgdi2k: but thanks alot for all the input! :)13:05
OneThatLearnsappreciate13:05
ioriaOneThatLearns, as you said the way may be chroot, (http://www.linuxtechi.com/configure-chroot-sftp-in-linux/), otherwise you can make a script with the temporary default home , and run it instead of the sftp command13:06

DiplomatHey guys, I have a quick question.. I have been reinstalling ubuntu server like 5 times for now , but every time it tells me error: filesystem unknown or something like that in grub, not sure what i doing wrong also it's not my first time to install ubuntu13:38
TJ-stangeland: you'd probably need to grab that via SSH when the crash happens13:38
TJ-Diplomat: that suggests GRUB cannot access its 'root' file-system (the file-system with /boot/grub/)13:39
DiplomatYup, and when I do ls it shows me: hd0, hd0,gpt1-4 and all of them have "filesystem unknown"13:40
castochI doesn't have ttyACM too13:40
TJ-Diplomat: is it using any form of RAID, LVM, cryptodisk ?13:40
DiplomatRAID10 yes13:41
TJ-castoch: maybe the device isn't recognised by a driver ?13:41
Diplomat+ one partition has lvm.. like physical partition13:41
TJ-Diplomat: Is the RAID hardware, fake, or software (mdadm) ?13:41
DiplomatIt's hardware13:41
TJ-Diplomat: so 'hd0' is the hardware array itself as presented by the controller?13:42
DiplomatI think so yes13:42
castochi will try find the driver13:42
DiplomatI'm rebuilding all partitions again and see whats up, but it's slow as hell lol over ipmi13:42
sruliTJ-: when i pass the option 'quiet' or 'type=session_close' in pam log file says no such file i checked /lib/security/ and the only file is pam_ecrypt_fs.so13:43
yao_ziyuanjust upgraded from 14.04 to 15.10. the only problem now is the login screen and wallpaper is still 14.04's. how do i update this?13:43
TJ-Diplomat: when GRUB is at its 'rescue>' prompt that means it has loaded its core.img but that file doesn't contain all the modules needed to mount the file-system containing its $root, or $root cannot be found. Your symptoms sound like the former13:43
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, lsb_release -a | nc termbin.com 9999            in a terminal13:43
DiplomatTJ-: former ?13:43
yao_ziyuancfhowlett:  it shows "No LSB modules are available." and then stalls. perhaps china blocked termbin.com?13:44
TJ-sruli: there's no such file as "pam_ecrypt_fs.so" in Ubuntu13:44
TJ-Diplomat: former = 'modules needed to mount ...'13:44
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, nope.  try cat /etc/issue13:44
yao_ziyuanUbuntu 15.10 \n \l13:45
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan,  did you clean install 15.10 or do an in-place upgrade13:45
TJ-Diplomat: core.img is an executable compiled and linked by "grub-install" which *should* detect and link in all the modules required to mount GRUB's root13:45
yao_ziyuancfhowlett: in-place upgrade13:45
DiplomatTJ- What's interesting is that every time I arrive to partition disks page in Ubuntu installer.. I can see that /sda4 havent been mounted anywhere13:46
Diplomatbut Im very sure that I mounted it to /13:46
sruliTJ-: in /lib/security/ i have pam_ecryptfs.so13:46
sruliTJ-: but no other files13:46
TJ-sruli: right, but not "pam_ecrypt_fs.so" - the underscores are important!13:46
stangelandTJ-, ahhh ok. thx. Yeah because now it just says: Script for ibus started at run_im.13:46
TJ-sruli: "pam_exec quiet /bin/bash /path/to/script"13:48
TJ-stangeland: that file is re-created on each boot so you have to get to it after the crash, and before a fresh GUI login, in order to preserve its content13:48
stangelandTJ-, ahhhh right ok13:48

cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, have you rebooted since upgrade?13:52

yao_ziyuanhow do i know which package provides /usr/share/backgrounds/Tranquil_by_Pat_David.jpg?13:53
skypebot2000yao_ziyuan: dpkg -S13:54
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, the package will be ubuntu_backgrounds.deb or very similar.  you can find it in your .iso or the .iso manifest13:54
TJ-yao_ziyuan: "dpkg -S /path/to/file" or, if not installed, "apt-file search /path/to/file"13:54

cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, wait,  you said you HAD the 15.04 papers???!13:55
yao_ziyuanvery weirdly, my upgraded 15.10 has wallpapers from debian...13:55
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, where did you get this .iso??13:56
sruliTJ-: you mean pam_exec.so ?13:56
yao_ziyuancfhowlett: i didn't have the 15.10 wallpapers until now i installed ubuntu-wallpapers.13:56
TJ-sruli: right :P13:56
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, so ... we happy?13:56
yao_ziyuancfhowlett: 15.10 is already released. i upgraded from 14.04 to 15.10 online.13:56
yao_ziyuancfhowlett: yes13:56
DiplomatTJ-: http://i.imgur.com/e24b41G.jpg check this out13:56
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, wait what/??  14.04 >> 15.10 directly??13:57
yao_ziyuancfhowlett: no. first to 15.04, then to 15.10.13:57
sruliTJ-: its still complaining /lib/security/quiet: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory.13:57
DiplomatYou can see that sda4 is not mounted for some random reason.. I hope this time im getting luckier13:57
yao_ziyuancfhowlett: using Software Upgrader and, when it fails in the middle, using do-release-upgrade13:57
TJ-Diplomat: right, so now you select #4 and set its mount point13:58
DiplomatDoesn't matter really..13:59
Diplomatit wont set it13:59
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, unless something has radically changed very recently, what you describe is strictly prohibited.  14.04 > 14.10 (via eolupgrade method) > 15.1013:59
slidinghornyao_ziyuan: I hope you made a stop at 14.10 on the way to 15.04......13:59
yao_ziyuancfhowlett: not to 14.10, but to 15.04 directly, and then to 15.10.13:59
slidinghornyao_ziyuan: yeah...you can't do that....14:00
yao_ziyuani did it...14:00
slidinghornyao_ziyuan: and now you're here....14:00
TJ-Diplomat: I think your problem is maybe the location of partition #4 - you've got 3.6TB in front of it, making GRUB unable to reach its root file-system. Swap the positions of #2 and #414:00
yao_ziyuanthere are errors in the middle, but i overcame them by dpkg-reconfigure and things like this.14:00
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, nope.  not how ubunt works.14:00
yao_ziyuanwhat potential problems would i have now?14:00
yao_ziyuani don't see any apparent error messages now.14:01
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, ah, so you jailbroke the installation method.  I would not trust your system at all.14:01
yao_ziyuanno. i didn't jailbreak.14:01
yao_ziyuani first ran the graphical Software Updater from 14.04.3 LTS.14:01
yao_ziyuanit prompted me to upgrade to "15.04".14:01
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, you cannot directly upgrade 14.04 > 15.10 without using eolupgrade to14:01
yao_ziyuani followed.14:01
DiplomatI have set it every time I have reinstalled it14:02
slidinghornyao_ziyuan: maybe jailbreak isn't a "proper term" however, it's very much against the way Ubuntu works in its releases.  I can assure you that your updated did not tell you to upgrade from 14.04 to 15.10 directly.14:02
TJ-Diplomat: format the disk so it has biosgrub, ext4, swap, lvm in that order *on-disk*14:02
yao_ziyuanit did.14:03
DiplomatTJ- now I did, root should be sda2 now, it's installing apt stuff atm14:03
slidinghornyao_ziyuan: It most certainly did not.14:03
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, nope.  14.04.3 would first want to see 14.10 which is eol .  you dpkg -reconfigured (forced) something strange.14:03
yao_ziyuanhowever, the upgraded 15.10 was problematic.14:03
yao_ziyuanthen i ran do-release-upgrade in a terminal, and it upgraded me to 15.10.14:03
yao_ziyuanand 15.10 is now perfect.14:03
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, except when it's not ...14:03
DiplomatThis RAID10 makes me so sad.. I have 8 x 1TB SSDs there.. and only 3.8TB usable space14:03
lotuspsychjeDiplomat: are you on server?14:04
DiplomatYup14:04
TJ-Diplomat: that looks correct, for mirror+stripe14:05
Diplomatyup14:05
Diplomatbut its sad14:05
slidinghornyao_ziyuan: I'm sorry, but I can't help you if you're not going to be up front and honest about this.  I can absolutely guarantee that Ubuntu did not prompt you to upgrade directly from 14.04 to 15.04 without hitting 14.10 in between.  It is simply not possible.14:06
yao_ziyuani was in 14.04 LTS. then i followed this instruction: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/upgrade14:06
DiplomatOk, install is done14:06
yao_ziyuani set the "Notify me of a new Ubuntu version" dropdown menu to "For any new version". 14:07
slidinghornyao_ziyuan: even then, it would still have had you go through 14.10 first.14:07
yao_ziyuanthen i run Software Updater again. it told me to click Yes to upgrade to 15.04.14:07
yao_ziyuani was surprised why it didn't tell me to upgrade to 14.10 first.14:07
TJ-Diplomat: the capacity is in GiB, whereas drives measure it in GB: " echo 'scale=2; 4 *(1000^3)/(1024^3)'| bc" => 3.7214:08
slidinghornyao_ziyuan: ....it did.14:08
Diplomatyou made me sadder14:08
yao_ziyuani remember i killed Software Upgrader once.14:08
Diplomatgood lord baby jesus14:08
yao_ziyuanmaybe this is why. i skipped upgrading to 14.10 without knowing it.14:09
lotuspsychjeyao_ziyuan: what you tried is just wrong, there is no 14.10 anymore14:09
Diplomati think that was it.. that 3.8tb gap14:09
lotuspsychjeyao_ziyuan: you cant just go from lts to non-lts14:09
yao_ziyuananyway i am now in 15.10...14:09
yao_ziyuando you want a screenshot for proof?...14:09
lotuspsychjeyao_ziyuan: no, im just saying its asking for troubles14:10
lotuspsychjeyao_ziyuan: clean install instead14:10
TJ-Diplomat: Yes, because GRUB starts in real mode and cannot address so far into the disk. It ought to figure that out during grub-install though!14:10
yao_ziyuanis there a file that can show distro upgrade history?14:10
yao_ziyuanmaybe from that file i can see if i upgraded to 14.10 first.14:10
slidinghornyao_ziyuan: we're not saying you didn't end up with some semblance of 15.10...we're saying your system is very likely broken and we cannot support it due to your choice to ignore the upgrade notes & processes14:10
lotuspsychjeyao_ziyuan: better focus on your issue...why are you here?14:10
sruliTJ-: i made a test without "if [ "$PAM_TYPE" = "close_session" ]; then" and on login it executed it but not on logout, also if i put it in session-common & session-common-interactive it exec it twice, i guess problem is with "if pam_type" what can i try instead?14:10
yao_ziyuanlotuspsychje: i didn't have 15.10 wallpapers installed (actually, the package 'ubuntu-wallpapers' wasn't installed).14:11
TJ-sruli: as to executing twice, touch some file and check if that file exists and do nothing if it does, and ensure that file is deleted for "open_session"14:11
lotuspsychjeyao_ziyuan: so download a wallpaper pack somewhere?14:12
yao_ziyuanlotuspsychje: i ran 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-wallpapers' and the problem solved.14:12
yao_ziyuanlotuspsychje: my "15.10" system has debian wallpapers, somehow.14:12
DiplomatTJ-: Hm.. now big partition is gone somewhere.. fdisk -l shows that theres 3836GB of space, but yea14:12
TJ-sruli: To figure out the missing 'close_session' maybe it has a different name, so have the script - as a debug measure only - append PAM_TYPE to a file you can check to see which are being fired14:13
Diplomatshows only sda114:13
Diplomatdf -h shows sda214:13
Diplomatsda3 is gone :D14:13
Diplomatsda3 and sda4 are in /dev tho14:13
cfhowlettyao_ziyuan, and that alone is an indication of some seriously scrambled internal stuff in your system.  you'll ignore this advice but:   download the 15.10 .iso, md5sum to verify, make a bootable USB and clean install 15.1014:13
sruliTJ-: regarding exec twice, just noticed second time is when i open a terminal, so i think i can remove it from noninteractive14:13
TJ-Diplomat: the disk is probably using GPT, not MBR. Use "gdisk -l /dev/sda"14:14

daftykinsDirtyCajun: so why are you asking for a driver if it's already ok?15:25
huggiesI want to learn to make smaller better programs15:25
DirtyCajunthe issue is that the current drivers throw IRQ... its not ok daftykins15:25
huggiesThat are easier to understand.15:25
daftykinshuggies: this is OS support, not dev support.15:25

ioriaAdzbuck, that is right ? ? ?16:48
Adzbuckioria: I'm a little unsure what you're asking me16:51
ioriaAdzbuck, sdb != sda16:51
AdzbuckI had to mount the hard drive to another machine, would that not change the disk path?16:52
lite12hello i'm using a usb modem and sometimes it get's disconnected. to connect again I have to poweroff my laptop. is there a command that will reset my usb port Bus 02 device 00516:52
ioriaAdzbuck, ok16:52
AdzbuckI can't seem to get a console up in any way16:52
lite12.16:53
nicomachuslite12: can you paste the output of "sudo lshw -C network" in a pastebin and link here?16:53
lite12nicomachus: ok16:54
ioriaAdzbuck, when you boot the drive, press shift to enter Grub , recovery16:54
Adzbuckioria: that is the recovery mode I was on about where it asks me to log in, if i enter the details it logs me in for about half a second then logs me out16:55

fepWhy is the ports open when i scan my localhost but closed when i scan my LAN ip?16:56
fep(ports on different services)16:56
jpdsfep: Things are only listening on localhost?16:56
ioriaAdzbuck, it logs you out, when you choose 'root' ?16:57
Adzbuckyes16:57
nicomachuslite12: sorry, I have bad news. Looks like your USB dongle uses a realtek chipset that has notoriously buggy performance on linux.16:57
nicomachuslite12: what version of ubuntu are you on?16:57
ioriaAdzbuck, and if you choose 'resume' ?16:57
fepjpds, yes16:58
lite12nicomachus: 14.0216:58
sruliTJ-: is there any way i can tell my script to halt the loggoff/shutdown proccessor edit the shutdown proccess to wait for the script to complete?16:58
jpdsfep: That's the reason16:58
lite12nicomachus: 14.04 sorry16:58
fepjpds, oh, do i have to configurate each one of the services to listen to remote hosts, or is there one config file that all of them gets its policy from?16:59
lite12nicomachus: do you think running modprobe will solve it16:59
jpdsfep: It's in the services config file16:59
fepok, thanks16:59
fepjpds, look for "listen to remote hosts" ?17:00
fepor something similar17:00
jpdsfep: It totally depends on the program17:00
jpdsfep: Postgres has a "listen_addresses" variable17:01
fepjpds, right .... do you know if i run tor and privoxy if i need to configurate both, or just one of them, and where/what to switch on/off ?17:01
fepi see17:01
fepill try to go on with my googling, but the it was some confusing17:01
lite12nicomachus: but i think usb storage is deeply tied in kernel17:02
nicomachuslite12: no that won't solve it. what is the output of "uname -a"?17:02
lite12nicomachus: so modprobe wont work17:02

nicomachusyay!17:03
lite12nicomachus: hahaha i'ts linuxlite17:03
lite12nicomachus: but it's base on ubuntu here https://www.linuxliteos.com/download.html17:03
pbxlite12, unfuortunately this is not a "based on ubuntu" support channel17:03
fepjpds, so it has nothing to do with iptables ?17:04
TJ-sruli: no, the whole point of the shutdown functionality is it will kill processes that don't terminate when signalled.17:04
nicomachuslite12: be patient one second. there's a fix for some of these realtek drivers and I want to see if it will work for you. just hold on a second.17:04
lite12fep: then how do you reset the usb on ubuntu?17:04
sruliTJ-: so i'm buggered on this one, did you file a bug?17:04
lite12ok17:05
jpdsfep: iptables could be blocking access, yes17:05
fepjpds, but not as default?17:06
lite12fep: i'm sure what works on ubuntu  will work on linuxlite17:06
fepjpds, the blockage is something you have to switch on manually or is it default blocking anything?17:06
fepjpds, iptables -L shows nothing17:07
nicomachuspbx: linuxlite is an ubuntu derivative, and in the case of drivers might as well be ubuntu.17:07
lite12pbx: then how do you reset the usb on ubuntu?17:07
lite12pbx: i'm sure what works on ubuntu  will work on linuxlite17:08
nicomachuslite12: it doesn't look like the fix will work with that chipset, I'm sorry.17:08
lite12nicomachus: ok thanks tho17:08
OerHekssruli, TJ- maybe this page is any help ? http://askubuntu.com/a/41728817:09
pbxlite12, you may be sure but you can't expect others to be17:09
sruliOerHeks: that page was my starting point, the solution there ends that the user id is written to a profile which is quick enought to complete before logoff, rest of it executes after logoff,17:11
sruli**written to a file17:11
lite12nicomachus: after replugging the modem, the usb throws and exit status 117:11
lite12nicomachus: is there a hot fix to this? like restarting usb ports or something17:12
daftykinslite12: we do not support non-ubuntu, please find a channel for your own distro - regardless of similarities, it is not permitted here.17:12
lite12daftykins: ok sorry, linuxlite on irc is disconnected couple months ago.17:13
lite12daftykins: I've been googling for hours, I have this problem for months now,17:13
daftykinslite12: right, well install ubuntu then we can help, but until then it is the fault of your own distro.17:14
nicomachuslite12: it's a bad USB, you'll have to get a different one to solve the problem.17:14
lite12daftykins: I just need a little amount of leeway17:14
daftykinslite12: no.17:14
nagromltanyone wanna help me with speaker/audio?17:15
OerHeksasking here for a hotfix while ubuntu does not suffer that issue, great.17:15
lite12nicomachus: ok thanks, but can I like restart or reload the usb? it works fine in windows, i have dual boot(actually this is the only reason why i still have windows)17:15
daftykinslite12: your on an old kernel and the wrong distro, so not here, sorry.17:16
eikon81gI was reading up on an issue I am having.. I recently attempted to update teamviewer on my machine (xubuntu 14.10) and I am getting an error in Teamviewer when I run it. Wehn I run it out of terminal the only error I see now is; update-desktop-database17:16

diskinlite12, have you checked http://askubuntu.com/questions/645/how-do-you-reset-a-usb-device-from-the-command-line ?17:17
eikon81gI read that this was a bug in the past that was resolved but seemed to have resurfaced for others in 14.1017:17
tomerI have two fairly large gzipped files on my hard drive. Decompressed they'll grow in size by another 7-8 times. So I'm thinking I could mount a ramfs (tmpfs doesn't grow adaptively afaik) and extract them there to their full size whenever I work with them. Would my drive only have to read the gzipped amount of bytes or does decompression not work on-the-fly like that?17:17
OerHekseikon81g, me too, so best thing that lite12 can do, is install REAL ubuntu :-D17:18
eikon81gnagromlt, what is the issue?17:18
nicomachusOerHeks: I think he was referring to his own error...17:18
OerHeksoh, coincidense17:19
eikon81gnicomachus, that's right, I was staying out of that one. . Looks like he got the answer that he needed just not the one he wanted me on the other hand... lol17:19
eikon81gno problem OerHeks I am just trying to tinker my way through this issue17:19
nagromlteikon, surround sound help.  Creative 4.0 surround system on a M5A78L-M LX Plus board.  Worked fine until 15.04 to 15.10 upgrade17:20
slidinghornlite12: Have you posted on their forums?  That's the main support area for that disto, and it does appear active (several posts today)...they also have a manual & a bug reporting link on their support page. http://www.linuxliteos.com/support.html17:20
nagromlteikon: been dealing with it for a bout a month or two.  Lot of forums and troubleshooting but nothing so far :/17:20
eikon81gI initially wasn't able to get the GUI to launch due to some folder ownership issues and I went through and chown'd the directories that were causing a hold up17:20
lite12slidinghorn: ok thanks, i think ill file a bug report then by the way thanks for the link diskin17:21
eikon81gnagromlt, I had a sound issue awhile back.. I ended up tinkering in pulse audio for quite awhile. Have you tried manually assigning the audiosinks out of terminal?17:21
nagromlteikon81g: pulseaudiio, ALSA, some lesser known modules/stuff(?) all nothing.17:22
nagromltJackd, etc17:22
nagromltwhat would have changed from .04 to .10?17:22
eikon81gthat wasn't my fix but I read a lot about people having issues going in and assigning the audio sink straight to the device they wanted to output to17:22
lite12on a second thought, i think ditching linuxlite might be a good idea, been using this since last year17:23
daftykinslite12: sounds like a plan, if it's still on the old kernel too - it's obviously quite rubbish17:23
eikon81gnagromlt, I am not really too sure but I figured if you hadn't tried that route yet you may be able to stumble your way through it to get a result. I am pretty new to the linux community so I would probably be your last resort for serious technical assistance.17:24
eikon81gjust wanted to give you a lead you could follow up on..17:24
lite12daftykins: do you think the new ubuntu released a bugfix for this?17:24
=== Guest20239 is now known as ubik123
sruliTJ-: maybe i can cancel shutdown in my script "shutdown -c" and call for it again at the end of script but how would i know if what was called for was shutdown/rebbot/logoff?17:25
daftykinslite12: i'm not really looking at your issue, just seeing you're running an outdated kernel on an unsupported distro, i'm not willing to go any further than that.17:25
eikon81g!teamviewer17:25
eikon81gI noticed teamviewer wasn't on the SoftwareStore..17:25
daftykinsbecause it's third party17:25
nagromltyeah Im googling now :)17:25
lite12daftykins: by the way i only have 2 gig of ram, should i download the 32 bit ubuntu version17:25
georgewhitelite12: there is no problem with the RAM if you use either17:26
georgewhitelite12: as long as you have a compatible processor17:26
daftykinslite12: personally i would, depends what you use17:26
eikon81gahh ok. Well its odd because I got it to run it just throws an error out of the gui. I may just submit a ticket to the teamviewer support - do you think my error message would cause the program to fail? Warning in file "/usr/share/applications/gnumeric.desktop": usage of MIME type "zz-application/zz-winassoc-xls" is discouraged ("zz-application/zz-winassoc-xls" should be replaced with "application/vnd.ms-excel")17:26
daftykinslite12: plan for the future just in case you might upgrade though17:26
lite12daftykins: my cpu can support 64 bit, but i read somewhere on the internet that you have to use 32 bit if you have below 4 gig of ram is that true?17:26
daftykinsno that's rubbish17:27
eikon81gwas it a 754 pin? they may be reffering to the dual channel ram use17:27
eikon81gi remember back in the day some of the cpus wouldn't support dual channel17:28
lite12daftykins: so I can use 64 then.17:28
daftykinssocket 754 was single channel iirc17:28
daftykinslite12: i believe we already covered that17:28
lite12falking internet hoax again17:28
daftykinserr i don't think you can claim the whole internet hoaxed something when you just got told it was rubbish :P17:28
eikon81g(it's fine) the 64bit processor will process the 32bit applications as such with no issues generally (it's compatible like daftykins was saying) @ lite1217:29
daftykinsjust check your CPU actually does support 64-bit17:29
lite12daftykins: it it does my windows is 64 bit before dualbooting17:30
daftykinsgood stuff17:30
lite12daftykins: thanks, next time I'll come back here, I'll be using ubuntu17:31
daftykinshere's hoping ;)17:31
daftykinspick LTS too, 14.04.317:31
OerHeks64 bit processors should be sold with a minimum of 4 gb, to get full power/features. but 2 gb will do, some say it will run -0.5% ... but running 32 bit on a 64 bit processor also runs slower :-D17:31
lite12ok bye17:31
MehHarderwhen i try to connect a second monitor, both go black and the first shows some scrumbled images. Whats going wrong? -.-17:31
lite12OerHeks: thanks17:32
MehHarderwhen i reboot with both monitors, the second keeps black and the first is gray and i can move the mouse. nothing else17:32
eikon81gMehHarder, you will have to be more specific what version of Ubuntu are you running and the display driver you are using..17:33
nagromlteigon: i only have one sink and it is set to default so im not sure that is the issue.. anyother ideas?17:33
MehHarderUbuntu: Wily, Card: ATI 380 something, Driver: Stock17:33
nagromlt*eikon17:33
nicomachus"Stock" is not a driver.17:34
eikon81ghave you tried to use the function-crt button on your machine to see if it pulls up the options to tinker in the settings?17:34
eikon81gMine was a bit buggy until I played with it17:34
MehHarder@eikon81g yeah, but nothing17:34
eikon81gnagromlt, the articles I read talked about specifying the sink to a hardware ID17:34
MehHarderit keeps a crumbled version of my last screen on the first monitor, whatever i do17:35
eikon81gMehHarder, when you installed ubuntu did you check to see if there were additional drivers available for your video card?17:35
Guest39whats the best way to convert from a space separated list of arguments to json?17:35
MehHarder@eikon81g in the wizard? but no i havent, i bought a ATI extra that i could use the open source ones17:36
eikon81gMehHarder, sounds like drivers but the artifacts and distortion can be from several things including hardware faults17:36
MehHarderit works perfectly with one screen, also games seemed to work well so far. i hope its not hardware fault, the whole box is 1 day old17:36
skatmanMehHarder, or your xorg configuration isn't set up right.17:36
MehHardergod... i choosed ubuntu to do as less as possible, i dont have time for that until weekend -.-17:37
eikon81gMehHarder, I would recommend looking for updated drivers first in the Software & Updates options to be honest17:37
skatmando you have xrandr setup?17:37
MehHarderk i'll try17:37
MehHardernope i dont think so, if its not default i have not17:38

MehHarderall references to xorg are in /usr/share17:42
skatmanweird17:42
MehHarderthere are several files in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ but i assume thats more or less templates17:43

skatmanMehHarder, I can't tell you which config is for the screen cat <file> | grep screen or some shit lol17:45
k1l_MehHarder: get the details what card you use exactly and if that card is an issue today17:45
MehHarderi assume i have the same errors on arch, at least i will somehow have to understand whats going on. here i just do random things, hoping for some magic17:45
k1l_MehHarder: wrong17:46
MehHarderhuh?17:46
k1l_MehHarder: you can config the same on ubuntu. atm its your details that limit it. "i got some card" wont help on arch too17:46
MehHardersorry. ATI 38017:46
skatmanyou just told us you wanted to use ubuntu for simplicity, but now arch lol17:47

skatmanicewalker, if you wanna see your current configuratoin just do a "cat /etc/network/interfaces"17:57
skatmanYou'll then see dns-nameservers towards the bottom17:57
icewalkerwonder if need to also add "additionl search domains" for 8.8.8.8 dns17:58
skatmanoh wait, thats for static17:58

Ghost_r00tI want to install xubuntu 14.04-1 from iso. but I want to instruct it not to install Grub or anyother bootloader during install. how should I do that?20:19
skatmanGhost_r00t towards the end it will ask you if you wanna install grub, or am I wrong?20:20
Ghost_r00tskatman: no It just goes a head with it20:20
skatmanGhost_r00t or just don't install a boot partition..20:20
Bashing-omGhost_r00t: What are you going to use for a boot loader - that is better than grub2 ? Got to have some bootlader to boot an operating system .20:21
daftykinsskatman: setup would not continue20:23
Ghost_r00tit is beside the point. the boot loader would be Grub2_GPT_EFI in other distro in some other partition. if ubuntu trys to install its own grub then we have a problem20:24
daftykinsGhost_r00t: nah if you're installing EFI, then ubuntu would throw its' files in the EFI partition and wouldn't override any existing from another distro, so it'd be fine20:27
daftykinsas long as your systems' EFI had the "master" OS we'll call it, selected as the GRUB to boot, it'll do just fine :)20:28
Ghost_r00tdaftykins: 14.04-1 xubuntu. are you sure?20:29
skatmanhow about I just install an xubuntu on virtualbox and let you know if it stil proceeds after choosing " continue without boot loader"20:29
skatmanrunning right now20:30
daftykinsGhost_r00t: are you picking that old media because you want to keep the 3.13 kernel?20:30
Ghost_r00tskatman: many thanks20:31
daftykinsi really don't think you can, but even then your vbox VM will not be EFI20:31
Ghost_r00tdaftykins: exactly. the new kernels and noveau fan problems if you know what I am saying.20:31
skatmandaftykins ehh good point20:32
meyouI've got a shell script that launches xfreerdp with some zenity dialogs to prompt for username/password and a list of terminal servers to connect to, it works fine except if the user/pass is invalid, the error from xfreerdp is suppressed20:32
daftykinsGhost_r00t: sure, however as i have described above if you truly have an EFI boot partition of type FAT32 and will be booting ubuntu media as EFI (which has worked since 12.04.x) then you will be fine just letting it do its' thing :)20:32
meyouis there some way to pipe error output into a dialog box or something?20:32
meyouright now if your user/pass is correct it launches a full screen rdp session, if they're incorrect it just does nothing silently20:33
daftykinsGhost_r00t: at the very worst, ubuntu may tell your EFI to use the ubuntu grub instead, but you can just switch it to your preferred bootloader (possibly with some help of efibootmgr) then update your other distro to also boot ubuntu20:33
Ghost_r00tdaftykins: so in that case i have on Grub which is working as I want right now reside in ESP (EFI partition) and another one which ubuntu installs?20:34
Ghost_r00tdaftykins: oh; ok thanks20:34
daftykinsyep20:34
Ghost_r00tdaftykins: in a live medium. where could I find grub.cfg20:35
daftykinsare you trying to boot nomodeset?20:35
ioriameyou,  /var/log/xrdp.log  ?20:35
daftykinsif you tell me what you're after i can answer more effectively, or point to someone who can20:35
Ghost_r00tdaftykins: I find a way to do install without grub. *ubiquity -b* . right now i want to add the ubuntu grub entry to my existing grub to solve the problem.20:37
daftykinsah funky, i'll have to remember that - however i think having ubuntu's own files is a worthy backup when your EFI partition is big enough.20:38
Ghost_r00tdaftykins: would be nice if you paste.ubuntu.com your ubuntu section of your grub for me as a model.20:39
daftykinsGhost_r00t: i would need to be on an EFI install, which i am not20:40
Ghost_r00tdaftykins: you mean a grub.cfg entry will differ from EFI to not EFI install?20:41

When I try to Ctrl + Alt + F1 to go to the prompt login the screen still keeps going around in a21:14
* tanepiper loop and only displays the prompt momenterally. Any ideas?21:14

ikonialrojas: it takes up almost no disk space21:25
ikoniawhy risk compatability for "business" need21:25
ikoniait's easier to do an install and remove what you don't need21:25
Bashing-omGhost_r00t: I do suggest that you use a EFI booted systems config file for your reference . I am sure mine would only serve to confuse .21:25
tanepiper@daftykins No can't even get to TTY121:25
lrojasikonia: but my point is, when i try to remove libreoffice i end up removing gnome-desktop components and breaking the environment, my question is why do i NEED to install libreoffice in the first place?21:26
tanepiperIt is black, show the login prompt so briefly then just continues in a loop21:26
ikonialrojas: you don't21:26
Ghost_r00tBashing-om: give it. i would take a look. but the live usb doesn't have a cfg file.21:26
tanepiperDoing a fresh install21:26
ikonialrojas: but if you're not comfortable managing packags, you'd be better losing a few meg a of disk space and trusting the ubuntu destkopers to deliver a working system21:27
daftykinstanepiper: ok, you could boot the live session, chroot and fix it but that'd be about as quick :)21:27

kolin89oh no21:27
wafflejocklrojas: could always start with ubuntu server and add on the DE if you want it21:27

ikonialrojas: why do you care really ?21:27
ikoniathe disk space usage isn't huge21:27

Bashing-omGhost_r00t: Mine: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14037163/ .21:28
lrojasikonia: fair enough, but why do i need to have it in the first place?21:28
=== mck182_ is now known as mck182
ikonialrojas: because it's the standard installed aimed at the majority of users21:28
ikoniayou don't "have" to have anything21:28
lrojasikonia: i think we will just have to agree to disagree, there should be an option like minimal desktop or something, where you have the desktop and the apps are left to me to install/manage21:29
wafflejocklrojas: the distribution is made for the typical desktop user with tools for stuff regular users might do, the LTS releases have stability in mind for regular desktop users, if that's not what you're looking for maybe it's not what you want21:29
cl0ckw0rkIrojas: Maybe you can unclick 3rd party apps when setting ubuntu up, it may help21:29
ikonialrojas: yet you seem unable to manage the apps21:30
ikonialrojas: so you've just proven th epoint that it's best to install for the general mass and trust that people can customize it if they are knowledgeable of it21:30
lrojasikonia: is not that i am unable to manage the apps, is that dependencies are absurd21:30
ikonialrojas: they can be managed21:30
jwood1hey everybody, i installed ubuntu 15.10 on an old laptop today and got stuck in a login loop. looked up the problem and, without knowing anything about it, tried to fix that. i got past it, but deleted compiz in the process. i tried to reinstall it via terminal but can't get it to work. i have a taskbar (at the top) at the login scrreen, but as soon as i login it vanishes. is there anybody that could help me with more than a one-liner (i can google those21:30
jwood1answer myself...)?21:30
lrojaswhy does gnome-desktop get removed when wiping LibreOffice?21:30
ikonialrojas: hence why there is "gnome-desktop" and "ubuntu-desktop" mega packages (or unity-desktop)21:31
ikonialrojas: because it's a meta package21:31
ikonialrojas: and doesn't really matter21:31
daftykinsjwood1: possibly not what you want to hear but i'd say 14.04 makes more sense on older hardware21:31
lrojas*sigh*21:31
ikonialrojas: no need to sigh21:31
jwood1yeah, i tried that first. didnt work (login loop), so i installed 15.10, thats where im at right now21:31
cl0ckw0rkjwood1: you can try lubuntu if you have a really old laptop21:32
nicomachus14.04 didn't work so you tried 15.10?21:32
Moonmani hate ubuntu21:32
Moonmani always get system program problem detected21:32
ikoniaMoonman: don't use it then, you're in a support channel21:32
swcdxtell me why?21:32
Moonmanand have to reinstall21:32
jwood1i am an ubuntu noob. i have no idea what i am doing the most time :D21:32
jwood1thats why im asking here21:33
lrojasikonia: i sight because i feel this is going in circles... like going to the cafeteria and asking, can i have a sandwich but dont put tomato on it... and then they bring it with tomato anyway but the cheeze is melted on the tomato and i cant remove the tomato without taking out the cheeze, so i ask if there is a way to ask for the sandwich without tomato and people are saying... just leave the tomato, most people like it... if you dont, remove it..21:34
lrojas. and when i say it is not straight forward to remove it, then i get accused of not knowing how to remove the tomato properly21:34
OerHekslrojas, how did you try to remove LO? sudo apt-get remove --purge libreoffice*  # mind the * at the end21:35
wafflejocklrojas: if I run sudo apt-get remove -s libreoffice-* I don't see it removing the desktop environment, I'm using Ubuntu Gnome as well21:35
ikonialrojas: it's pretty straight forward21:35
ikonialrojas: just have to pay attention and make a judgement on it's dependency removes21:35
jwood1oh well, what a bummer. gonna try lubuntu then. hoped to get some people that would guide me through my problems21:35
ikoniaand balance what you need/disk space against stability21:35
lrojasif you only remove libreoffice, you miss a couple of packages that are part of the libreoffice install21:35
daftykinsjwood1: i think there's an issue here which is better served by getting to the root of the problem, 14.04 doesn't install with login loop issues :) also, full ubuntu is likely inappropriate depending upon the age of this system, xubuntu or even lubuntu may be more apt21:35
daftykinsjwood1: yes, you just have to be a little more patient than 2 minutes...21:36
OerHekslrojas, autoremove would solve that21:36
Bashing-omjwood1: Lubuntu is a faster, more lightweight and energy saving variant of Ubuntu using LXDE, the Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment. It is targeted at "normal" PC and laptop users running on low-spec hardware. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu .21:36

jwood1the laptop is not that bad. 4gb ram, amd athlon x221:36
daftykinsi'd go xubuntu on that then21:36
daftykinswhat's the graphics hardware?21:36
ikonialrojas: it's up to you what you do21:37
ikoniaif this is for business as you say, I advise you to be pragmatic21:37
lettuce45one of my HDD is called v1, but every time I plug it in it gets renamed v1121:37
cl0ckw0rkjwood1: got 2gb ram, using zorinos, completely satisfied21:37
jwood1some ati card21:37
lettuce45çapparently there is a phantom v1 there that wont go away21:37
jwood1so, lubuntu or xubuntu then. any recommendations?21:37
daftykinsjwood1: can you boot right now to check?21:37
daftykinsi think i already gave mine21:37
daftykinsjwood1: have a look at pictures, whilst lu is lighter i find it ugly as all hell21:38
jwood1if you give me a terminal command i can check21:38
lrojasikonia: i am no longer trying to disentangle libreoffice from gnome, but is a question that is worth asking nonetheless...21:38
euviusshi. i just did a fresh install from usb stick.  no dual boot.  at the end of the install i get this message :The 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into /target/. Without the GRUB boot loader, the installed system will not boot.21:38
euviusswhat can i do to fix this21:38
ikonialrojas: what question ?21:38
daftykinsjwood1: lspci21:38
lettuce45jwood1, lubuntu for servers xubuntu for minimalist computers21:39
lrojaswhy when i try to remove the full libreoffice package there are dependencies that remove gnome-desktop21:39
cl0ckw0rkjwood1: I suggest zorin-os, ıt's an ubuntu distro with more bill gates lol21:39
ikonialrojas: what do you want us to do about that ?21:39
daftykinslettuce45: oh dear tux no, GUIs don't belong on servers.21:39
jwood1modility radeon hd 3450/347021:39
lrojasikonia: i dont want you to do anything, i was asking if anybody knew why it was like that21:39
lettuce45what do I do with my v1-v11?21:40
cl0ckw0rkIrojas: I miss the previous parts, how did you remove libreoffice? synaptic or package manager?21:40
ikonialrojas: because the meta packages are designed for the majority user21:40
ikoniato make life easier for the majority users21:40
daftykinslrojas: the 'buntus are for new users, typically anyone wanting a minimal setup would know what they're doing so wouldn't have an issue with a distro taking up 3GB of disk space in 2015.21:40
jwood1zorinos looks good, gonna try that21:41
tanepiper@daftykins OK fresh install and updated 15.10 running - but before I do anything for drivers, my device is a NVidia Optimus (i.e. 950m + Intel 5000)21:41
tanepiperWhat's the best recommendation from here (since clearly installing the nvidia drivers doesn't work)21:41
Bashing-omjwood1: AMD dropped support for that card .. only driver available will be open source .21:41
daftykinsjwood1: that's a mistake.21:41
daftykinstanepiper: well which did the GUI offer you to install, to start with?21:42
jwood1daftykins: you mean zorinos?21:42
lrojasikonia: again, i dont consider that to be a valid reason, that's a cop-out answer, when they perfectly could have provided a meta-package for the desktop environment and one for the full-blown end user experience.21:42
euviussits a fresh install so idk why i'd get an error21:42
ikonialrojas: it's not a cop out21:42
ikonialrojas: its the real workd21:42
ikoniaworld21:42
daftykinsjwood1: yes21:42
ikoniaif you don't like the answer, it won't change it,21:42
benicetopeopletanepiper: i'm curious why do you need the nvidia drivers(proprietary of course)?21:42
jwood1daftykins: can you elaborate why?21:42
cl0ckw0rkdaftykins: why?21:42
tanepiper@daftykins I wasn't given any option21:42
daftykinstanepiper: how-so? there was only one?21:43
Bashing-omtanepiper: ' sudo ubuntu-drivers list ' is the 358 version offered ?21:43
daftykinsjwood1: you won't be able to benefit from this lovely support channel if you do21:43
daftykins(for one)21:43
tanepipernvidia-352, nvidia-352-updates and intel-microcode21:44
jwood1^^ isnt lubuntu/xubuntu on an own channel, too?21:44
HoloIRCUserHello21:44
ikonialrojas: have a look at the ubuntu-minimal meta package, see if that ticks your box21:44
daftykinsjwood1: they do have specific channels, but they are on topic here also.21:44
cl0ckw0rkdaftykins: but zorin-os is an ubuntu distro, which means he can use same commands, same channel and askubuntu.com21:44
ikonia(I've not used it in a long time so I don't know i fit's complete enough for you)21:44
daftykinstanepiper: and which did you apply last?21:44
ikoniacl0ckw0rk: we dont support zorin here21:44
daftykinscl0ckw0rk: no it does not, distros BASED on ubuntu are off topic here.21:44
Bashing-omtanepiper: Ummm Nvidia recommends the 358 version ... PPA time ?21:44
tanepiperNone, at the moment I'm set to use Nouveau21:44
ikoniaand it's quite different and unstable21:45
daftykins!elementary | cl0ckw0rk as an example...21:45
ubottucl0ckw0rk as an example...: Elementary OS is an Ubuntu derivative which is supported in their IRC channel #elementary on irc.freenode.net - http://elementaryos.org/ for more information on this distribution.21:45
cl0ckw0rkikonia: well just support apt-get then..21:45
ikoniacl0ckw0rk: no21:45
nicomachuscl0ckw0rk: it's not supported here. those are the guidelines.21:45
Bashing-omtanepiper: However, if nouveau performs for ya .. do not fix it .21:45
daftykinstanepiper: yes what went wrong last though? which ones did you apply?21:46
cl0ckw0rkI will pretend ubuntu-users then21:46
tanepiper@daftykins OK - so when I first installed 15.10 Gnome, I then installed the NVidia driver which stuck me in a bootloop and I couldn't even access TTY121:46
tanepiperI've done a fresh install, I was given no options - it just installed and currently defaults to Nouveau21:47
jwood1alright, im going to try xubuntu. i am currently using an usb stick with the universal usb installer from linuxpendrive. is that recommended way or is that prone to errors?21:47
daftykinstanepiper: i know but i'm asking which of what you told me are available, you selected that first time :) when it went wrong21:47
tanepiper@daftykins yes, I selected the 352 proprietary drivers and it broke21:48
daftykinsokie dokie21:48
daftykinstanepiper: i recommend you add this official PPA - https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa21:48
lrojasis there a equivalent command using dpkg or apt-{get,cache} for "aptitude search '~i'"21:49
ikonialrojas: any good to you ?21:49
daftykinslrojas: apt-cache search x21:49
daftykinstanepiper: once it is added (instructions are on the page) install nvidia-355 and nvidia-prime together21:49
tanepiperOK, will give it a try21:50
lrojasdaftykins: apt-cache search x, as far as i get understand it, list a specifi package, aptitude search '~i' list installed packages and the ones that where installed automatically to satisfy dependencies show with an A21:50
lrojasikonia: i will try using that, maybe that will solve the issue21:51
daftykinsno, installed packages is "dpkg -l | grep x" which'd report package names including 'x'21:51
daftykins"apt-cache search x" searches for packages in repos named x21:52
k1l_lrojas: what is the issue anyway?21:52
daftykinsno issue, just one of those folks wanting to do a minimal install for odd reasons, k1l_ :)21:53
lrojask1l_: not sure what of my questions are you refering to21:53
k1l_<lrojas> ikonia: i will try using that, maybe that will solve the issue21:53
Bashing-omlrojas: Enhancements now in apt . try ' apt list <package> ' see " man apt " .21:54
daftykins:O21:54
lrojasdaftykins: fair enough, my question was how can i do the equivalent to aptitude search '~i' using apt or dpkg, considering that aptitude search '~i' shows installed packages and identifies the packages that where autoinstalled to satisfy dependencies with an "A"21:54
lrojasBashing-om: let me check that... perhaps21:55
tanepiper@daftykins OK drivers and prime installed.  Anything I should do before I reboot?21:56
daftykinslrojas: you would select a package from my earlier pointed out commands and then query that ones dependencies via "apt-cache depends <package>" or rdepends21:56
daftykinstanepiper: nope give it a go!21:56
Bashing-omlrojas: K .. lots has been added to the revampted apt . Many added switches also .21:57
lrojasdaftykins: but i am not looking for a specific package, i actually want the list of installed packages that where installed automatically21:57
benicetopeoplejwood: well using a usb stick isn't bad, just be sure to use the right creation tool.21:57
tanepiper@daftykins nope, stuck in a loop again and can't get TTY121:58
daftykinslrojas: you mean that were on there immediately after you booted in for the first time?21:58
jwood1benicetopeople im using the one from linuxpendrive21:58
daftykinstanepiper: ok, third time lucky you could try the same thing but with the intel update mentioned in the ubuntu-drivers recommendations also21:58
lrojasdaftykins: no, automatically installed means, that you issued apt-get install x, but to satisfy dependencies it installed x, y and z21:59
lrojasy and z are automatically installed packages21:59
daftykinslrojas: no those are dependencies... which is what i just told you.21:59
LiI was able to reduce file size using this command "ffmpeg -i 1.mp4 -vf scale=iw/2:-1 -strict -2 1.mp4" but the text rendered unreadable! is there any better ways to do it?22:00
daftykinsi think i understand what you're saying now, you want to know which were system wide and not just from a single package, i get it22:00
daftykinsno idea :)22:00
benicetopeoplejwood1: that's a nice tool, but since you have linux installed, might as well download the xubuntu ISO and do it on the terminal.22:00
daftykinsand to be honest i don't want to assist in your crazy minimalist plan, i think it's a huge waste of time22:00
Bashing-omlrojas: ' dpkg --get-selections' ?? will dump a list of all packages you have installed,22:01
tanepiperOK will chroot and purge the nvidia stuff22:01
jwood1nah, i only have windows so far. this is my first try on linux (except tails)22:01
lrojasBashing-om: but it wont show wich ones where installed automatically... never mind i think that is just a feature of aptitude when you use it to manage the system22:02
daftykinstanepiper: you might be able to just install the intel thing from ubuntu-drivers on the command line actually, so if you set up your chroot just do that instead of removing nvidia.22:02
daftykinsjwood1: i've had good results with UUI22:02
jwood1installing xubuntu atm, should i check "download updates while isntalling" and "install this third party software (for flash, mp3 etc)?22:05
k1l_yes22:05

euviusshow do i make the installer do it in bios mode22:37
isomarcteeuviuss: What do you mean the USB is in UEFI mode? The usb can't be in UEFI mode if you don't have UEFI, AFAIK.22:37
isomarcteeuviuss: If all you need is to install grub, you can boot to a live media, and install grub from there22:38
euviussthis live version, i ran a command that said its in uefi.  also, in the bios, it said the usbstick is in uefi mode22:38

isomarcteeuviuss: The BIOS won't report anything about UEFI unless you have UEFI22:38

isomarcteTJ-: Not sure what you mean by that...Are you saying it is the standard way the Ubuntu installer does it?22:55
TJ-isomarcte: euviuss Create a hybrid MBR that contains that partition too, and it'll work even on PCs whose BIOS doesn't understand GPT (older BIOS)22:55
euviussoh man22:56

ikoniaretrojeff: don't need to spam junk in here22:56
euviussi appreciate the help but im too ignorant about that stuff22:56
retrojeffits not junk its funny its bug #122:56
euviussi'll try 1422:56
ikoniaretrojeff: don't need it in here22:56
euviuss14.0422:56
isomarcteeuviuss: Always good to learn :)22:56
daftykinsretrojeff: this is not a chat channel, #ubuntu-offtopic thanks - also everyone knows about that one :(22:56
TJ-isomarcte: I think it depends on which ubuntu release; certainly recent releases are using parted and GPT22:56
isomarcteeuviuss: It really isn't that hard22:56
qinustyso when I boot, I get a command line <hostname> tty1 with a login: on a new line. however keyboard input does nothing to the login....22:57
isomarcteTJ-: I know they are using GPT22:57
Bashing-omqinusty: Maybe - do you know the booted kernel when you made your changes ? Then something like ' sudo update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.35-28-generic ' to rewrite the imange .22:57
isomarcteTJ-: I thought they were using UEFI/GPT if the efivars were available and MBR if otherwise22:57
TJ-isomarcte: GPT should be used for larger disks, I think its the default now. I'd have to check to be 100% certain.22:58
isomarcteTJ-: Even for non-UEFI systems?22:58
isomarcteTJ-: I guess that would make sense22:58
TJ-isomarcte: Yes22:58
isomarcteTJ-: I still think he will have to do it manually if the system IS UEFI, otherwise the installer will attempt a UEFI install22:59
TJ-isomarcte: There's no reason not to use GPT and plenty of reasons in its favour. Even on BIOS systems I use GPT and create an EFI System Partition for future compatiblity (disk moves to a UEFI system easily then)22:59
qinustyBashing-om: would it be an initrd.img-... or vmlinuz-...22:59
isomarcteTJ-: Oh I completely agree.22:59
TJ-isomarcte: generally the PC UEFI boot menu should offer 2 boot options for the isntaller, Legacy and EFI. Sometimes the wording is unclear as to which is which23:00
isomarcteTJ-: Well, he can certainly disable UEFI completely in the BIOS, that will force Ubuntu to use the EF02 partition23:00
isomarcteeuviuss: If you are still around you might want to try that ^^^23:01
isomarcteeuviuss: If you are afraid of doing it by hand23:01
euviusshm23:01
Bashing-omqinusty: Both are a part of initramfs . That is what will be when booting, write from ram back to the operating system during boot .23:01
euviussthis is my error message after the install23:01
euviussThe 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into /target/. Without the GRUB boot loader, the installed system will not boot.23:01
euviussso how would i install a grub boot loader23:01
TJ-isomarcte: well it doesn't work like that directly; In Legacy/BIOS mode the firmware does the standard read of sector 0 into memory at 07C00 and executes it. It's that code that loads core.img from the BIOS boot parition23:01
euviussmaybe that would fix it23:01
TJ-euviuss: did you install via the "Try Ubuntu" mode?23:02
euviussfrom within the live instance23:02
TJ-euviuss: so you have access to the desktop, can open a terminal, etc.?23:02
euviussi did both23:02
euviussyes23:03
TJ-euviuss: good, that's the important bit. It allows us to some decent diagnostics and fix it up easily23:03
TJ-euviuss: "sudo apt-get install pastebinit"23:03

TJ-euviuss: then "pastebinit <( uname -a; ls -l /sys/firmware/efi/; cat /proc/mounts )"23:04

Bashing-omqinusty: Sorry, never encountered such . No idea if what is taking place .23:06
qinustyanyone got any suggestions before I resorted to reinstalling? :p23:06
euviussdo you care if it's not standard ubuntu23:07

TJ-euviuss: what does that mean?23:07
euviussi dont want to waste your time23:07
euviussits kubuntu23:08

TJ-euviuss: "pastebinit <( sudo parted /dev/sda unit s print )"23:10
Bashing-omqinusty: A thought, as you can not boot into grub, purge grub and re-install from that CHroot ?23:10
euviusshttp://paste.ubuntu.com/14040109/23:11
k1l_ExeciN: what program is that? are you the developer?23:11

TJ-euviuss: OK, I'm beginning to see what the situation is. That message "The 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into /target/ ..." is unexpected since that package (....-signed) is the SecureBoot EFI signed GRUB core image, but your system has the unsigne grub-efi-amd64-bin package installed.23:26
TJ-euviuss: however, Ubuntu wasn't added to the PC's EFI boot menu23:27
TJ-euviuss: Does the PC usually boot in SecureBoot mode?23:27
