dbarrosdoes windows create the EFI partition even AFTER a LINUX LVM in the beginning of the drive?00:34
nicomachusaizarry: the key shortcuts should be along the bottom. Save is Ctrl+O, then press enter. Then exit is Ctrl+X00:35

nicomachusI disabled kernel upgrades on my HTPC a few months ago and cannot for the life of me remember how I did it, or figure out how to revert that...00:37
TJ-dbarros: I'd have thought as long as there are free partition entries, and space, it *ought* to, but Windows has always done stupid things with the boot-loader code00:37
dbarrosTJ-: i've read stupid things like EFI partition needing to be the first, but the first will be linux /boot... and then LVM....00:38
dbarrosTJ-: and then MS creates 3 additional partitions before C: - EFI + SYSRESERVED + MSR00:38

nicomachusI've got a machine with 14.04.3 installed, but it's still on the 3.13.0-54 kernel. It will not pull new kernel updates... and I can't figure out why. http://paste.ubuntu.com/14092804/00:59
dbarrosdoes /boot need to be the first partition or can I let windows have 4 partitions before this one?01:00
k1l_nicomachus: you mean the 3.19 kernel?01:00
naccnicomachus: you have to tell it to install the HWE kernel, iirc01:00
LeviMI have a USB Type C to DisplayPort adapter. It worked on the live USB but not after installing Ubuntu. How can I find out what driver I need for it?01:00
nicomachusI may have disabled those updates at one point because I had an older mobo that didn't like anything except for the 3.13.0-54 version, but I've put a new mobo in it now and don't remember what I did to disable.01:00
nicomachusk1l_: no. 3.1301:00
nicomachusk1l_: see that paste.01:00
k1l_nicomachus: run a "sudo apt update"01:00
TJ-nicomachus: did you remove "linux-image-generic" ?01:01
nicomachusk1l_: no change. dist-upgrade still finds nothing to upgrade.01:01
k1l_nicomachus: make sure "linux-generic" is installed01:02
nicomachusTJ-: from sources?01:02
TJ-nicomachus: the packages01:02
nicomachusahhhh. there it is.01:02
TJ-nicomachus: they contain the 'Depends' on the latest kernel versions, so remove those, the kernel no longer updates01:02
nicomachus3.13.0-74 is installing now. but it should be 3.19 no?01:03
k1l_image-generic is not 3.19. it will always be 3.13 on trusty.01:03
nicomachusok.01:03
TJ-nicomachus: You'd want the lts-vivid HWE packages for 3.1901:04
k1l_you need the enablement stack packages for the 3.19 kernel (which are standard on a 14.04.3 install)01:04
Bashing-omnicomachus: " sysop@1404mini:~$ uname -r >> 3.13.0-74-generic " if you are not HWE enabled, you remain on the trusty stack . ( good !)01:04
nicomachusAh. this was a 14.04.1 install originally, so that explains it.01:04
zteamMonkeyDust, Yes.... that's why I'm asking............01:05
nicomachuscool. now to reboot and see if this mobo throws a fit like the old one did.01:05

zteamI can't get it to work01:18
tltjnagro, you have to run mkswap on the correct swap inner partition01:18
tltyou only have to do it once01:18
nicomachuszteam: relax. deep breaths. what's the error?01:19
tltmake really sure you are operating on the right device though01:19
jnagrotlt: hmm thanks.01:19
aizarryso after installing php mariadb apache, whre can i locate my folder like htdocs on mac? so i can create a new file to start web dev01:19
tltjnagro, don't run mkswap on something you don't perfectly know what is, it'll destroy what's there if so01:19
jnagrotlt: aye. wouldnt want that.01:19
tltjnagro, just holler if you need any further help.01:21
jnagrotlt: thanks!01:21
zteamnicomachus, it still complains about those missing files01:22
zteamlibxul.so:01:22
zteamlibdbus-glib-1.so01:22
jnagrotlt: yeah actually. i see my encrypted root partition as /dev/mapper/sd6_crypt my swap is supposed to be sd5_crypt.01:22
nicomachuszteam: are you sure you downloaded the correct version of the tar from the seamonkey site?01:22
jnagroits listed in /etc/crypttab and fstab, but the device in /dev/mapper isnt there.01:22
tltjnagro, but it's unmounted right?01:23
jnagrotlt: aye, it is.01:23
TJ-LeviM: it should show up (on the Live) using "lshw  -C display"01:23
jnagroyeah tlt lemme dig int.01:23
TJ-jnagro: does the entry in /etc/crypttab include "offset=..." in the options?01:24
tltjnagro, cd to /dev/mapper01:24
tltjnagro, and type ls -l01:25
TJ-jnagro: also, is the device identified by UUID or device node?01:25
LeviMTJ-: Thanks.01:25
nicomachuszteam: I just downloaded and installed in about 30 seconds following these instructions, from the Seamonkey page: http://www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/install-and-uninstall#install_linux01:26
TJ-tlt: FYI with encrypted swap devices you *don't* run mkswap, because that is done each time the device is created01:26
jnagrotlt, TJ- /dev/mapper just has 'control' and 'sda6_crypt' which is my root partition01:26
jnagrosda5_crypt is supposed to be my swap01:26
TJ-jnagro: show us the line from /etc/crypttab01:26
zteamnicomachus, well obiviosly not, I did download the ones for 32-bits Linux01:26
jnagroTJ- tlt sda5_crypt UUID=<the uid> none luks,swap,discard01:27
hardlygreenhi01:27
tltTJ-, yeah except that the installer fails making it nine out of ten times01:27
TJ-jnagro: there's a relatively common issue with the device not using the 'offset=' but using UUID= device entity, which will fail on reboot01:27
TJ-jnagro: right, as I thought01:27
zteamnicomachus, I guess that was the problem, after downloading the 64-bit verion it worked perfectly, thanks mate :-)01:27
tltso one has to manually, nine out of ten times01:27
jnagrodarn. this was working until i just got the latest kernel update.01:27
jnagroTJ-, tlt it asks for the password once now, not twice. swap is lost.01:27
TJ-tlt: No, you've misunderstood. The *inner* swap is created by ecryptfs itself after it creates the encrypted device each boot.01:28
TJ-jnagro: Right, do you know which partition is assigned for the swap?01:28
jnagroTJ-, yes, /dev/sda501:28
TJ-jnagro: OK... let's set it up correctly. first I need to confirm that is the correct partition so you don't wipe out something by mistake. Can you "pastebinit <( sudo blkid /dev/sda* )"01:29
tltum sha5 is usually the whole luks data area01:30
tlt*sda501:30
jnagroTJ-, i'm fairly certain /dev/sda5 is the correct partition. i set it up manually since i'm still dualbooting osx from time to time01:30
TJ-jnagro: OK, but I'd like to see proof before I give you commands that will destroy data!01:30
jnagrolooking at gparted its the correct size and the only filesystem listed as "unknown"01:30
jnagroTJ-, :-) kk one sec01:31
tltjnagro, use the graphical disk command that comes with ubuntu also01:31

nicomachusx23: ok? sounds like it'll still fit on the DVD.01:39
xcelqwareja_: im just browsing yourself?01:40
TJ-jnagro: now, delete the original line /etc/crypttab for sda5_crypt01:40
wareja_how come?01:40
jnagroTJ-, this is the new line: http://pastebin.com/Z03iqXUs01:41
TJ-jnagro: the key part here is the addition of "offset=8" (sectors) because that prevents the creation of the encrypted device from over-writing the swap meta-data in the first 8 sectors of the partition, which is where the UUID is stored. Without that, when the encrypted device is created it overwrites the metadata and therefore subsequent boots can't find the device01:41
jnagroAh hah.01:41
TJ-jnagro: you should now find it works with repeated boots as you'd expect01:42
jnagroTJ-, okay i'll give it a whirl01:42
jnagroTJ- tlt thanks. i'll be back in a moment.01:42
jnagroTJ-, tlt worked like a charm.01:46
jnagromakes complete sense.01:46
jnagroTJ-, so out of curiosity, why this hadnt happened yet... was it because i hadn't gone out to swap yet thus destroying the uuid?01:46
jnagroTJ-, or was it really related to the kernel upgrade?01:46

RaathI want to update to kernel 4.3.3 but I need to compile it + a couple of patches that are in the 4.4 upstream.  If I download and install the 4.3.3 .deb files everything is fine, but if I compile 4.3.3 and try to install those I have no network02:17
Raathlspci shows that the adapter is there but it isn't loading02:17

Koyaanisnicomachus: get a better name lol02:25
sasha_Does anyone here have instructions to create a kernel patch from a github driver file? Thanks.02:26
rewimupRaath: Its like ubuntu is getting more debian based rough around the edges. And MINT is the new ubuntu02:26
yigalRaath: the symptoms are rather general have you done basic kernel troubleshooting, i.e. look at logs?02:26

sasha_Ben64, Raath, yigal Kernel issues are ubuntu issues. Mint doesn't produce a kernel. Anyone seeking help for a kernel should be helped. It's ubuntu documentation.02:37
rewimupsasha_: okay02:38
TJ-sasha_: Incorrect. We only support Ubuntu releases, and we also do not support user-built kernels unless it is to fix an issue on an Ubuntu installation02:39
plytroOctubre2: because ubuntu defaults to wide open home directories02:41
rewimupsasha_: ha02:41
plytroand if they set permissions such or put things in shared locations without paying attention to permissions you can see them02:41
plytroI usually edit the default settings for new accounts to protect home directories02:41
sasha_TJ, That's  quite the restrictive policy there... So much for "community".02:44
nicomachussasha_: the more lax community can be found at #ubuntu-offtopic. :)02:45
foopermanBut that's still not a place to find support.02:46
nicomachuscorrect, because this is the place for Ubuntu support. there is a separate channel for Mint support, and #ubuntu-kernel, and ##kernel, and ##linux.02:46
plytrohey do you guys offer any support for ubuntu on a z series?02:47

plytrothe z System support is only recently announced anyway02:48
sasha_nicomachus, I'm just surprised to see such up-tight statements, especially since the whole concept of ubuntu is sharing and community. Back a couple years ago when I ran manjaro, those guys were wonderfully pleasant and helpful. Yes, even when discussing slightly unrelated linux issues.02:48

LeviMTJ-: So... the USB-C to DisplayPort not working on the Live USB anymore. The only things I can think of that are different is that I now have a different display at the other end of the cable, and that I no longer have a USB to Ethernet adapter also plugged in.03:01
LeviMDo these display to the OS as USB devices?03:02
TJ-LeviM: I'd have thought the adapter would show up without a monitor connected. Does the adapter show up on other systems/OSs ?03:02
LeviMTJ-: It didn't show up on Arch.03:02
TJ-LeviM: is it DisplayLink or DisplayPort ?03:03
LeviMUSB-C to DisplayPort03:03

LeviMThat's my lsusb output whether it is plugged in or not.03:04
TJ-LeviM: from what I understand, not all USB-C ports/controllers support video03:05
LeviMTJ-: This worked when I was at work briefly on a Live USB of Ubuntu 15.10.03:05
LeviMSo it can't be that.03:05
LeviMI just unplugged everything and came home expecting that since it worked there I'd have no issues after install.03:05
LeviMI should quit making assumptions, I guess.03:06

LeviMThis is the cable: https://www.visiontek.com/cables-accessories/for-pcs/visiontek-usb-3-1-type-c-to-displayport-adapter-detail.html03:08
LeviMIs it possible that the same driver that was working for the USB to Ethernet adapter was working to detect the other adpter?03:09
nomicwhy doesn't wireless detect on a laptop on xubuntu 15. but it does on xubuntu 14.0403:09
nicomachusnomic: could be a driver issue.03:10
nomicit doesn't recognise the pc wireless03:10
nicomachusnomic: what's the output of 'sudo lshw -C network'03:10
TJ-LeviM: "OS support: Microsoft® Windows® 8.1 32-bit, 8.1 64-bit, 8 32-bit, 8 64-bit, 7 32-bit, 7 64-bit, and MAC iOS compatible"03:10
LeviMSure, sure, I understands that is what is says.03:11
TJ-LeviM: if the hardware isn't even being seen by the kernel there's something incompatible about the PC and that adapter03:11
LeviMI saw it work already though on the Ubuntu Desktop 15.10 iso.03:11
TJ-LeviM: had the PC been booted with Windows previously?03:12
LeviMI don't understand what would cause it to behave differently now.03:12
LeviMTJ-: Not a successful boot anyway.03:12

nomicnicomachus,03:12
nicomachusnomic: do you have an internet connection on that machine now? ethernet?03:13
TJ-LeviM: some devices will be initialised by the Windows driver, and therefore a warm reboot will keep them working for Linux, but a cold boot fails because the firmware isn't loaded into them, or they're not correctly configured to respond03:13
nomicim using usb wireless key03:13
nomicslots in03:13
nicomachusnomic: ok, that works fine. 'sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source'03:14
nomicworked on 14.0403:14
nicomachusthat should get you the drivers for you on-board broadcom03:14
nomicim upgrading to 15.04 for another reason03:14
nomicwhat does that do .. is that mean it supports my wireless with that kernel source installed .. then i reboot?03:14
nomicwell im gonna do eet then reboot03:15
nomicis downloading it now .03:15
nicomachusnomic: it installs the drivers for your broadcom card. and then yes you'll likely need to reboot.03:15
nomicok bye .. will report back kind sir03:15
nicomachusnomic: 15.04 is EOL in January, so you'll wanna update to 15.10 soon.03:15
LeviMTJ-:  I guess I'll wait until Monday and try it again with the USB to ethernet adapter also plugged in.03:15
nomicwill it upgrade without a fresh install ie..  sudo apt-get upgrade03:16
nomicmaybe03:16
nomicfor some reason, my network ceqased to function with the lasest 200mb upgrade on 14.0403:16

nicomachusOctubre2: because ./ is not a directory. are you trying to copy all of the hidden files out of your home folder?03:28
Octubre2yes nicomachus , i want to copy all hide items from my users to another user, because i want the same configurations03:28
Octubre2then i want to copy all hide dirs recursively, home to home03:29
nicomachusOctubre2: then write your regex as "~/.*" instead of "./.*" and it should work.03:29
Octubre2i go to try this trick03:29
nicomachus:) no trick, just proper formatting.03:29
anabainany ideas?03:30
nicomachusanabain: I'm not quite sure what you're asking. Can you state your question again all on one line, and put any pastes into a pastebin and then link the pastebin here?03:31

anabainnicomachus, under /media I have two hdds, among other stuff03:38
Octubre2nope nicomachus , it copy "." file too :S03:38
Octubre2i stopped and used the same comand adding --verbose param03:39

anabainnicomachus, server box is 14.04, updated03:40

aizarryinstalled ssh how can i edit my sshd_config cause when i open it up i can erate some lines03:45
nicomachusanabain: I'm checking around but I'm not sure what's going on there.03:45
anabainon the other hand, if I explicitly mount these two hdds on /etc/fstab then I can ls them. and the other stuff is also listed.03:45
anabainnicomachus, ^03:46
TJ-Octubre2:  so something like this maybe?  "cd ~; find . -type d -maxdepth 1 -name '.*' -exec cp -a {} /home/otheruser/{} \; "03:46
aizarryinstalled ssh how can i edit my sshd_config cause when i open it up i can erate some lines anyone can help?03:46

Octubre2sorry sir03:52
nicomachusanabain: it could be permissions.03:53

anabainnicomachus, everything under /media has to be 777 root:root, right (except maybe particular users dirs)?03:56
anabainalwan, happy weekend03:56

Dylan____Hey guys im noticed that my mac doesnt charge to 100% anymore04:00
Dylan____It only charges up to 84%04:01

nomicin that -- it is only holding 84% of it's design charge04:02
nicomachusDylan____: this is a known issue with macs running Ubuntu.04:08

nicomachusthen let it rest overnight or so, then recharge to full04:09

testfso, logically, the problem had to be upstream05:21
testfnicomachus, it's labelled. How else do I inform?05:22
testfit's not malware anyway, it's an ad redirector with really crap info on it on the web05:23
testfso, turns out the problem was the modem itself was infected, giving dubious dns.05:24
nicomachustestf: were you able to clean the modem?05:24
testfto fix it : settings->network -> dhcp for addresses only->set the dns to a fixed one like 8.8.8.8 (google's own) and similar05:25
testfI don't know enough about the modem. Some crappy MTNL (indian government service provider) modem from years ago. For the record, SAM300AX Sterlite05:27
nicomachusmy personal suggest would be to format and re-load with OpenWRT, but that's not really a support topic here. :)05:27
testfwhat bugs me is how difficult it is to figure out the issue 'cos so many sites are blaring about removing firefox addons.05:27
testfand the way most people would solve it would be by adding adblock or similar05:28

SkyriderBut finish.08:15
Ben64awshelp: why not "sudo apt-get install znc"08:15
awshelpi dont have any guide that walks me through that command08:15
tltBen64, I suggested that.08:15
Ben64tlt: i know, but it got ignored then08:16
tltyup.08:16
Ben64step 1: "sudo apt-get install znc" step 2: you're done08:16
awshelpu serious08:16
awshelpdont i need to configure it08:16
SkyriderAs far as I know, by launching znc for the first time, you get a text-config to fill in.08:17
SkyriderI think I compiled znc though, rather than installing it using apt-get.08:17
awshelphow do i run it on a non admin user?08:17
Ben64"znc"08:17
awshelp?08:17
Ben64is how you run it08:17
tltawshelp, apt-get install znc will set up all the prerequisites for you08:18
awshelpincluding the non admin daemon?08:18
tltin terms of creating a znc user for itself, if applicable, and all the things like that08:18
SkyriderI'm running ZNC under the ZNC user.08:19
Infamousawshelp, service znc start08:19
awshelpok third time08:19
SkyriderDont need root to run it.08:19
awshelplets hope this works08:19
SkyriderThen again, its not even adviced to run znc as a root/admin user.08:19
Infamousjust make sure you add the user to the group08:19
Infamouswill worth fine08:19
awshelphow?08:20
SkyriderBtw. isnt apt-get znc from ubuntu, oldish?08:21

awshelpok whats next command?08:24
tltSkyrider, use linode08:24
awshelp"znc"08:24
awshelp?08:24
Skyriderif you launch znc, i'll set up the config under that specific username you are launching the cmd with.08:25
awshelp"znc"   or znc08:25
awshelpi dont want it to run on root08:25
tltznc08:25
awshelpthanks08:25
awshelpso how do i make it run on non root08:25
tlt" " only means you should type what's within them08:25
awshelpi am a super noob btw08:25
SkyriderI'm not paying for the dreamhost hosting, just managing it..08:25
Ben64don't use sudo08:25
Skyriderstill, removing sudo is a bad, bad idea for dreamhost.08:25
awshelpso i dont need to add a user?08:26
awshelpnonroot user08:26
SkyriderAll depends on you awshelp.08:26
Borgtlt, ah. didn't know. I done' use linux really so, thought I would share and be helpful.08:26
tltawshelp, ah you're root currently?08:26
awshelpi use sudo for root08:26

tltBorg, thanks for the concern08:26
awshelpubuntu server08:26
SkyriderI prefer to have everything separated, so hence I created a znc user.08:26
awshelpi want this znc to auto launch on every reboot08:27
awshelpon a non root user08:27
awshelphow i do that?08:27
Skyridercheck the link I gave you08:27
Skyriderhttp://wiki.znc.in/Running_ZNC_as_a_system_daemon - has all the info in it.08:27
Skyriderbe sure to read through it though.08:27
tltawshelp, try reboot and see if not the znc daemon autostarts now at boot08:27
Skyriderapt-get zmc installs a auto-start daemon as well?08:28
awshelpi havent configured it yet08:28
awshelpok so 1. i need to run this on a non root user, 2. i need it to auto start on boot08:29
awshelp*/10 * * * * /usr/local/bin/znc >/dev/null 2>&108:29
awshelpthis will start it on boot08:29
awshelp?08:29
Ben64no08:29
rwwno, that would make it run every 10 minutes08:29
freeroutehi, suppose I want to give a local domain name (like cabbage.carrot) to a local machine. Would the first part of this answer apply to me too? http://askubuntu.com/a/19095408:30

notalentgeekHello, I am using Ubuntu Mate right now. How can I assign terminal command into keyboard shortcut like you can easily do in Unity?08:30

notalentgeekI want to assign shutter -c to SHIFT + CTRL + A08:31
Ben64awshelp: what you posted isn't a command, and it will run it every x minutes, which is probably not what you want08:31
awshelpBen64 but does that thing stick even after reboot?08:32
SkyriderBen64 odd though that that cmd is suggested to use on the znc help page.08:32

awshelpyup^08:32
awshelpis that command a running process for only the current boot, or it stays afte reboot?08:33
Ben64meh i guess znc handles the multiple copies issue08:33
rwwit's not a command, it's a line you add to crontab, and yes, it will not magically disappear upon reboot08:33
Ben64again, it isn't a command08:33
awshelpok excellent08:34
awshelpsoo i can change that to 1 minute and assume it to be the auto znc boot on reboot?08:34
Ben641 minute would probably be excessive08:34
awshelpwhats the smallest number i can do08:34
awshelpthat wouldnt be excessive08:35
awshelpand do i run that command as sudo?08:35

awshelpshould i type that cron entry after i configure znc or it doesnt matter?08:38
awshelpor before08:38
SkyriderDoesnt matter.08:38
awshelpthanks08:38
SkyriderIts merely an additional 'cron' job to run/check if znc is running or not.08:39
SkyriderHowever.. seeing you NEVER configured znc yet..08:39
SkyriderI suggest adding it after, not before.08:39
KernelPanic_i istalled ubuntu 15.04 on external hardisk08:39
KernelPanic_every thing istalled correctly08:39
awshelphow can i veryfy the cron entry has been added?08:40

tltexcept the n key08:40
KernelPanic_after i reboot i getting error message like kernel panic08:40
Ben64awshelp: set up znc first08:40

SkyriderIf you'd for example would create the znc config file WITH the sudo command, you'll create the config file as root.. not a good idea.09:01
Skyriderawshelp and there you have it, already an answer on znc channel :p09:02
awshelpso install with sudo, makeconf without sudo, and run znc without sudo?09:02
Skyriderexactly. but that also depends on which user you wish to make the config file with. But that might make things more complex for you.09:02

Apacheztlt: thats what I thought the point of using ubuntu package manager was09:23
Ben64Polarcraft: so run ssh -vvvv 10.21.21.40 and pastebin the output09:23
Ben64Apachez: give more information09:23
ApachezBen64: apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade   using ubuntu 15.1009:24
Apachezupdated virtualbox package was added last day09:24
Apachezduring install it ends with:09:24
ApachezStarting VirtualBox kernel modules ...done.09:24
Apachezln: target ‘setup’ is not a directory09:24
Apachezand then the install/update/upgrade ends09:24
Ben64yeah i saw that when you pasted it 3 minutes ago09:24
PolarcraftBen64, http://pastebin.com/S3gghGM509:25
Ben64Polarcraft: whoops, put "-p 7000" at the end09:25
ApachezUpgrade: virtualbox-5.0:amd64 (5.0.10-104061~Ubuntu~wily, 5.0.12-104815~Ubuntu~wily)09:25
Apachezfrom the history.log09:26
PolarcraftBen64, allows me to connect from dedicated machine, just not from putty.09:26
Ben64then you need to set up putty to use port 700009:27
rwwApachez: erm, that package version is from a repository maintained by Virtualbox upstream, not by Ubuntu09:27
rwwso "broken package in Ubuntu due to lack of quality control" doesn't really apply.09:27
PolarcraftBen64, already did that, that is the weird part.09:27
Apachezsure it applies09:27
Apachezusing ubuntu: checked09:27
Apachezbroken package: checked09:27
Ben64not using ubuntu package09:27
Apachezhow come its broken? well either lack of quality control or by purpose (I sure hope its not the later): checked09:27
rwwrighto, let me be clearer. Your problem is with a package not maintained by us. Go talk to the Virtualbox folks.09:27
quest9who hacker?09:27
Apachez<tlt> Apachez, ALWAYS get virtualbox from the virtualbox site.09:28
rwwyep, that was incorrect, as Ben64 said.09:28
cfhowlettquest9,  you are in the wrong channel09:28
Ben64using snarky attitude - ✓09:28
Ben64not a great way to get help anywhere09:28
soioHi all, I'm on an Ubuntu Mate 15.10, do you know how to remove the login script ? I tried different solutions but nothing applies ...09:28
Ben64Polarcraft: well if you can connect using ssh and not with putty, the problem has to be putty09:29
soioThe login request at startup I mean ...09:29
tltApachez, you should really heed these folk and not me.09:29
quest9hehe..  where channel about hacking please tag me09:29
Ben64quest9: not on freenode09:29
PolarcraftBen64, so I just tried connecting without any settings and it is still refusing my connection.09:29

soiobut nothing works09:32
soioI'm tring to remove the login window at boot09:33
Ben64soio: and what would be there instead09:33
PolarcraftBen64, ah I was using the local ip instead of external: http://pastebin.com/S3gghGM509:34
soioI have now the login window without password request ( I removed it by ubuntu interface )09:34
tltquest9, go to ##security09:34
Ben64Polarcraft: need to forward the port then09:34
soioBut I want remove login window completely09:34
PolarcraftBen64, it is forwarded: post-up iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i vmbr0 -p tcp --dport 7000:7100 -j DNAT --to 10.21.21.4009:35
quest9on server ??? ::: tlt09:35
Ben64soio: but what will be there09:35
quest9thanks tlt09:35
Ben64Polarcraft: well not properly then09:35
soioI would like that when I boot my system I get directly my desktop ready09:36
Ben64soio: so you want to auto login09:36
soioYes I do09:36
Ben64soio: https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/auto-login-to-the-desktop/6009:36
soioThank you I'll give a shot09:37
PolarcraftBen64, I don't know how that isn't forwarded correctly..09:37

Robin_Am I in the right channel to ask for help regarding my bu report?11:59

cassio3(installation, printers, or anything.)11:59
k1lRobin_: depends on the package. sometimes its best to talk to the maintainer directly and show him the bug report12:00
Robin_I added the traceback error and my fix in Python to the bug report12:00
Guest45054thank you guys, i'd better do some research in the http://help.ubuntu.com first as you recommend12:00
Robin_The package is the software-center package in Ubuntu, the maintaner according to Launchad is 'Ubuntu Developers'12:00
vocxRobin_, this is not the appropriate channel to deal with this. I think there should be an #ubuntu-bugs channel or something like that. I think it should be possible to attach the new code as a file, and not just put a pastebin somewhere on the internet.12:03
nightfurihow do i install the latest version of wine's 32-bit package in ubuntu 14.04 ?12:03
Robin_I will ask my question on #ubuntu-bugs then, thank you. Also it is not a pastebin somewhere on the internet, it is the pastebin maintained by Ubuntu (pastebin.ubuntu.com).12:04
vocxRobin_, changes in code are usually done in the form of a "diff", that is, a file that shows the difference between two files.12:04
raspberry-pihey12:04
k1lRobin_: on that site: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter  i found this https://help.launchpad.net/Code/Review12:05
=== nya is now known as Guest77610
vocxRobin_, that it's maintained by Ubuntu is not an issue, but generally, all addresses on the Internet can expire. So even that address may expire and the fix is not found anymore in a couple of years. This is relevant not for your issue, but for fixes that take years to implement or so. People need to track the issue by attachments.12:06
Robin_vocx, I will try to add it both files as attachments to my bug report then, thank you12:07

MonkeyDustV99_  what's the output of    cat /etc/issue12:10
vocxRobin_, in most cases you don't need to add the whole file, just the "diff". I forget the exact options but it should be something like "diff -u original_file new_file > diff_file"     Adding the entire code of a file is not necessary if you just want to get a small function fixed. This relevant if the original file is thousands of lines long.12:10

neredsenvyk1l, I keep hittin SHIFT during boot but do not get into GRUB menu15:46
k1lhold shift15:46
k1lfor uefi systems it might be esc15:46
k1lneredsenvy: you isntalled ubuntu already, right? if not and you use the live-system you need to change that setting when you see the "try ubuntu or install ubuntu" menue15:47
iorianeredsenvy, basically, you press F6 and choose 'nomodeset'15:48
fuat-pihi15:48
xela2244hi, I'm using ubuntu GNOME 15.10 and I'm missing windows theme option on gnome-tweak-tool, any solution?15:48
neredsenvyNope holding SHIFT does nothing, holding ESC I get to stay at boot info page for 20seconds than back to blinking cursor, pressing F6 same thing15:49
engyisherezumba_addict if u come to know how to do that ..do tell me15:49
iorianeredsenvy, you don't get the Main menu ?15:50
zumba_addicti found it, called screenlits15:50

engyisherescreenlits..15:52
neredsenvyin BIOS should I diable quiet boot ? maybe15:52
engyisherehow to download screenlits15:52
k1lneredsenvy: you cant disable the kernel parameter ins bios15:52
k1lneredsenvy: but yes, maybe that gives you a bigger timeframe to hit the proper keys15:53
TJ-neredsenvy: do you hold the Shift key down continuously from when the BIOS/firmware is doiing POST?15:53
neredsenvyDo I need to enter BIOS first > exit than Hold SHIFT15:54
neredsenvyor power up and hold SHIFT15:54
=== tachibana is now known as PentUpPentium
TJ-neredsenvy: shift needs be down when the BIOS hands over to GRUB, so it helps to hold it down as early as possible15:54
iorianeredsenvy, are you booting from a live disk  ?15:55
TJ-neredsenvy: the reason bootloaders use Shift or Ctrl is that unlike all other keys, they don't generate key-up/key-down events, they set flags, so the user doesn't need to be repeatedly hitting the key to get it recognised, just has to hold it down15:55
neredsenvyioria, No main hard drive I took the installation usb out15:56
iorianeredsenvy, ah, ok15:56
neredsenvyOk so going into bios exiting it holding SHIFT did not help either15:56
neredsenvyIf I go to try ubuntu it just get's stuck loading forever15:56
neredsenvyI get get into BIOS F2 or into Boot Menu F1215:57
neredsenvyI tried powering up and HOLDING Shift, Esc, F6 as well as HITTING15:57
neredsenvyNothing yet15:57
TJ-neredsenvy: if you get to 'try ubuntu' that's the boot loader15:57
k1lneredsenvy: there should not be a "try ubuntu" if you did a install and are not booting the live-usb15:57
iorianeredsenvy, wubi15:57
MonkeyDustioria  that's a profanity15:58
k1lwubi? please not wubi15:58

neredsenvyNo I did not use Wubi15:59
iorianeredsenvy, ah, ok15:59
meowwhatwub wub wub15:59
k1l<k1l> neredsenvy: there should not be a "try ubuntu" if you did a install and are not booting the live-usb15:59
TJ-neredsenvy: If you're seeing "Try Ubuntu" that is the installer booting15:59
TJ-neredsenvy: so the question is, when the system booted for the original install, how did you go about installing ?16:00
neredsenvyeverything went smooth no errors or anything16:00
neredsenvyafter reboot16:00
neredsenvyit came to a blinking cursor16:00
neredsenvythat's it16:00
TJ-neredsenvy: We're assuming you either chose the boot-time option "Install Ubuntu" or used the "Try Ubuntu" mode and then double-clicked the "Install Ubuntu" icon the live environment desktop16:00
k1lneredsenvy: if there is still "try ubuntu" there is nothing "all fine" with the install16:00
neredsenvyI went with install ubuntu right away16:01
neredsenvyok what do I do now16:01
neredsenvyNo problem reinstalling16:01
zumba_addicti like the Englightenment window manager back in the days. Do we have something like that today?16:01
k1lneredsenvy: do you see a "try ubuntu" now?16:01
iorianeredsenvy, boot the live16:01
k1lzumba_addict: there is enlightenment desktop in the repos16:01
MonkeyDust!e17 | zumba_addict16:02
ubottuzumba_addict: Enlightenment (or "E") is a window manager for X, providing a useful, and good looking graphical shell in which to work. E17 is the current version.16:02
TJ-neredsenvy: OK, well, the thing that has all of us scratching our heads is why, if the installation device is no longer connected, how the boot-loader is displaying "Try Ubuntu" right now, since that only comes from the installer boot menu16:02
Rigongiahi everyone, i'm having troubles on a live Ubuntu 14.04 with a thousand jpegs that seem to be corrupted and start by 0x7c0216:02

zumba_addictah cool :D16:02
zumba_addictthanks a lot!16:02
neredsenvyT3, When USB is not plugged in I get the cursor16:03
zumba_addictit should work on 14.04 right?16:03
zumba_addicti'll read this too - http://ubuntuportal.com/2015/02/how-to-install-enlightenment-e20-desktop-environment-in-ubuntu-14-04-14-10.html16:03
neredsenvyWhen i plugin the installation USB i get to installation menu if I go to boot menu and slect USB16:03
TJ-neredsenvy: OK, so "Try Ubuntu" only shows when the installer device is connected16:03
neredsenvyyes16:04
reg3xhi Could anyone help me installing my sound device? I can't make it work16:04
neredsenvyHowever if I select either Install ubuntu again or Try ubuntu I just get ubuntu logo and loading dots16:04
georgilgl16:04
iorianeredsenvy, it does not go ahead ?16:05
TJ-neredsenvy: OK, now its making sense. So, the flashing cursor could be due to a bug in the PC's firmware/BIOS, or it could be due to a problem with the installation. You need to boot the device using the "Try Ubuntu" option so you can do further diagnosis. If you're getting a black screen doing that it'll need the 'nomodeset' option adding at the 'Try Ubuntu' stage16:05
neredsenvyno just keeps loading16:06
iorianeredsenvy,  as we said before, press F6 and choose nomodeset16:06
neredsenvyioria, Duting which time16:06
TJ-neredsenvy: there's a relatively commong BIOS bug where the boot-loader and the BIOS internal functions use the wrong number to represent the boot device, which prevents the boot-loader reading the rest of its core image from the correct device. You might be able to work around that by going into the BIOS Setup, Boot Order options, and ensuring the hard disk is the 1st and only device listed16:06
neredsenvyright after power up ?16:06
iorianeredsenvy,  no, before press 'Try'16:07
neredsenvyok16:07
iorianeredsenvy,  you first need to get the main menu16:07
iorianeredsenvy,  then you press F6, then 'Try'16:08

iorianeredsenvy, if you're uefi, be sure you're booting the right media (labeled as efi) ,  and your hhd16:27
daftykinsno program needed if you're using EFI, just format a flash drive as FAT32 and extract the ISO contents onto it16:27

neredsenvyioria2, In try now I updated the grub file on the mounder HDD how can I run update-grub but not for try for the hdd os16:39
neredsenvyor do I not have to if I'm rebooting ?16:39
ioria2neredsenvy: what do you wanna do ? update-grun from live ?16:39
anabainTJ-, could you have a look at this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14099564/ ?  Under /media dir I have two hdds and there are also user own folders, floppy, etc. If I mount the hdds explicitly on fstab I can also access the other dirs in addition to the hdds dirs. Is there a problem with permissions? I'm on ubuntu 14.04 updated. BTW, regarding to this problem, which are the correct permission settings for the /media dir and its subdirs?16:40
ioria2neredsenvy: are you sure is the problem ?16:40
neredsenvyioria2, I used try to get to terminal to change the grub file to add nomodeset16:41
neredsenvydo i nedd to run update-grub16:41
neredsenvyif so how do I do it from try for the hdd os16:41
iorianeredsenvy, you mounted your partition on /mnt and  and edited /etc/default/grub ?16:42
neredsenvyyes16:42
neredsenvyrebooted now but still getting the cursor I'm geussing that's cuss update-grub was not run16:42
iorianeredsenvy, to run update-grub you need to bind mount and chroot16:43
neredsenvyhow do i do that16:43
=== dan_ is now known as Guest73884
=== ZenDK_ is now known as ZenDK
iorianeredsenvy, how can you know that is the problem ? , i mean you could edit again grub set it to show on boot and edit the kernel line16:44
neredsenvyI don't know it's what was suggested here and on google16:44
neredsenvythat it's a dedicated GPU problem16:44
neredsenvyto add nomodeset16:44
neredsenvywhat should I do anyone at all able to help16:45
iorianeredsenvy, boot again the live, mount your partition, edit /etc/default/grub an comment GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT16:45
iorianeredsenvy, with a '#', so the next reboot you'll get the grub screen and you edit it16:46
neredsenvyok drive mounted16:47

iorianeredsenvy, sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo parted -l | pastebinit16:56
mmacheerpuppy_boodllebat: Hey16:56
TJ-neredsenvy: can you do "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" and then "pastebinit <( sudo lsblk -f; sudo parted -l; sudo chroot </path/to/mountpoint> ls -latr /boot/ /boot/grub/ )" (replace <path/to/mountpoint> correctly)16:57
mmacheerpuppy_boodllebat: Do you know much about /var and /tmp16:57
boodllebatmmacheerpuppy_: i don't know much, but you can ask your problem here16:58
mmacheerpuppy_boodllebat: Well I understand it's good to have them as a fixed size16:59
mmacheerpuppy_boodllebat: but i dont know how big I should make them16:59
neredsenvyioria, TJ- http://paste.ubuntu.com/14100366/17:00
TJ-mmacheerpuppy_: I use LVM, and assign 6-8GiB initially to the /var file-system17:00
mmacheerpuppy_TJ-: I mean http://askubuntu.com/questions/343268/how-to-use-manual-partitioning-during-installation says 5GB for /tmp AND /var. Now is that conjunctively, so about 2.5 each or?17:00
iorianeredsenvy, ok msdos .... not using uefi     sudo lshw -c video | pastebinit17:00
boodllebatmmacheerpuppy_: i'm a rookie i'm not sure about it17:01
mmacheerpuppy_TJ-: I really don't want to reduce usability but I only have 70gb to work with on this machine17:01
mmacheerpuppy_TJ-: And I wannnnt tooo install counter strike on it too sooooo :^)17:01
ZteamOerHeks, yes, I know, unfortunately it seems rather unstable too :-/17:02
TJ-mmacheerpuppy_: 5GiB each would be a good margin for all eventualities. You can take those lower if you keep an eye on things. E.g. /var/cache/apt/archive and /var/log/ and others can grow over time17:02
neredsenvyioria, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14100441/17:03
TJ-mmacheerpuppy_: contents of /tmp/ are deleted on each reboot, so that doesn't need to be massive. 1 GiB should generally be enough even when doing archive file opening, downloading/viewing PDFs, and so on17:03
iorianeredsenvy  it'a a laptop ...17:03
mmacheerpuppy_TJ-: Aye but you want to keep it fixed to prevent flooding17:03
neredsenvyioria, Yes17:04
TJ-mmacheerpuppy_: flooding ?17:04
mmacheerpuppy_TJ-:  Putting a limit on /tmp size if it is mounted as tmpfs is to prevent a DOS attack. If one service was compromised or one user malicious they could simply write to /tmp until all of the swap and memory would be occupied.17:04
iorianeredsenvy  and when you boot normally you get a flashing cursor or what ?17:04
mmacheerpuppy_TJ-: From what I understand at least17:05
neredsenvyflashing cursor yes17:05
iorianeredsenvy  it's a fresh install ?17:05
neredsenvyyes17:05
mmacheerpuppy_TJ-: I'm just studying for my LPIC exam. I work in first line support and know a literal fuck tonne about programming languages, I've written object orientated programs in Python to do heavy duty switch configurations in the past and stuff17:05
mmacheerpuppy_TJ-: I really want to do SYSADMIN17:05
mmacheerpuppy_TJ-: and being stuck on first line is kind of frustrating17:06
daftykinsmmacheerpuppy_: don't use that language in here please.17:06
mmacheerpuppy_daftykins: trigger warning17:06
daftykinswhat?17:06
iorianeredsenvy  ok .... you could try to boot in text mode and then restart lightdm or set grub to nomodeset ....17:07
neredsenvyhow do i do this17:07
k1lmmacheerpuppy_: why do you bother with manual partitions of /var  and such at all? why not just /, /home and eventually swap parititon?17:07
daftykins^ probably heard of common server setup approaches17:08
mmacheerpuppy_k1l: Well from what I've read it's for security measures, and this is my first Linux installation that I'll be connecting to my network so I want to make sure I do it right17:08
k1lis it a server?17:09
iorianeredsenvy  mount | pastebinit17:09
k1lmmacheerpuppy_: for the average joe desktop install, /,/home and swap is the best case. no need to worry about full partitions spoiling all the system17:09
neredsenvyioria, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14100602/17:10
k1lmmacheerpuppy_: if you want the "full linux guru" package you are free to make that partitions you like, but you will need to read the documentations and get to know what you need to size them for. (and most times adjust them afterwards because the size was wrong at the start :) )17:11
iorianeredsenvy sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt17:11
neredsenvyioria, No errors now what17:12
iorianeredsenvy sudo mount --bind  /dev  /mnt/dev17:12
neredsenvyok17:12
iorianeredsenvy sudo mount --bind  /proc  /mnt/proc17:12
neredsenvydone17:13
iorianeredsenvy sudo mount --bind  /sys  /mnt/sys17:13
mmacheerpuppy_k1l: Basically yeah. I'm a big believer of throwing myself in the deep-end. That's how I've gotten good at a lot of things, mixed martial arts being one of them. But I hate being stuck in first line support when I'm the kind of person who is persistently motivated to do other things and I feel right now Linux sysadmin is a best avenue for a new career.17:13
neredsenvyok17:13
iorianeredsenvy sudo mount --bind  /run  /mnt/run17:13
daftykinsno /var being separate is not for security, it's so if something bad happens that spams the logs, the partition filling up doesn't affect the rest of the OS.17:13
neredsenvyok17:14
iorianeredsenvy   sudo chroot /mnt17:14
mmacheerpuppy_k1l: So your advice would be, make a standard Linux installation, then LEARN about tmp/var in greater detail, then worry about their uses later17:14
neredsenvydone17:14
k1lmmacheerpuppy_: yes.17:14
mmacheerpuppy_k1l: gotcha17:14
neredsenvyupdate-grub now ?17:15
iorianeredsenvy   now edit /etc/default/grub17:15
k1lmmacheerpuppy_: there is no need to worry about situations you dont get to know because you dont use that level.17:15
iorianeredsenvy   now edit /etc/default/grub   GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT    and add nomodeset17:15
k1lmmacheerpuppy_: this way you get a working ubuntu install and can get to know the more complicated stuff while using it.17:15

heelflipneredsenvy: what's the problem exactly?17:25
iorianeredsenvy   reinstall     ?  just saying .... :þ17:25
TJ-neredsenvy: You really need to identify the cause of that cursor. If it is the BIOS bug I talked about originally then no amount of editing the GRUB config is going to fix that17:25
TJ-neredsenvy: that flashing cursor top-left is expected if the BIOS has the bug, and prevents the bootloader from reading its core image file17:25
neredsenvygod damn it17:25
neredsenvyok I'll try to reinstall17:26

neredsenvywhat setting should be changed17:26
ioriaheelflip, hybrid amd /intel  laptop , smooth installation , no boot17:26
heelflipuefi?17:26
TJ-neredsenvy: you can tell pretty easily by the time it takes for the flashing cursor to show - if it happens in a less than a second from the last BIOS message/display you see, then it is the bug in the firmware17:26
ioriaheelflip, no http://paste.ubuntu.com/14100366/17:26

neredsenvyHDD is on the list and is first17:28
TJ-neredsenvy: OK, so how long does it take to see the flashing cursor ?17:28
TJ-neredsenvy: is it almost instantly (much less than 1 second) ?17:29

wawrekhello, I have a lenovo yoga laptop. I try to install ubuntu on it from a usb key (I created it with pendrivelinux as specified here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows)18:14
compdocneredsenvy, you have a pretty high Load_Cycle_Count, so you might want to run the util. Its named WDIDLE3, I think. Theres lots of info in forums about this problem18:14
daftykinswawrek: and?18:14
wawrekthe problem is that when I try to boot from the usb and try ubuntu without installing, it cannot detect the networks18:14
wawrekno internet18:14

iorianeredsenvy   or install in efi mode, if supported18:15
daftykinsyou probably need some additional input there, which version are you trying, wawrek ?18:15
wawrekso i am quite afraid of installing if the system is offline18:15
wawrekI tried ubuntu 14.04.3 and 15.1018:16
daftykinswawrek: i would boot up the live session again, then run "lshw -C network" and "lspci" then put the output of those in a text file on another flash drive if possible, then bring them back here18:16

lugariusmint is better than ubuntu18:45
iorialugarius, you lie :þ18:45
daftykinslugarius: it's not more popular, Mint has its' own issues and such a poor community people keep faking they're running ubuntu to come in here and ask questions.18:45
tgm4883lugarius: Spend any amount of time in this channel and you'll figure out pretty quickly that Mint is not more popular than Ubuntu. It being better or not is subjective18:45
daftykinslugarius: if you can't install one package via tickbox as most folk can, then the issue lies with you.18:45

ShadowM00nhello; I've tried some googling already to little avail, but in 15.10 when using Upstart the machine fails to halt/reboot, last output I can get is that the filesystem and swap were unmounted/disabled. Little of value seems to be in the system logs due to this. Where can I begin troubleshooting this?19:21
ioria!systemd19:22
ubottusystemd is the default init system for Ubuntu 15.04 onwards. For information on transitioning from upstart to systemd, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers19:22
ShadowM00nI realise systemd is the default, but I find it unpleasant for a variety of reasons, and the upstart package appears to still be supported19:23
jak2000anabain k, thanks19:25
ioriaShadowM00n, you installed this upstart-sysv ?19:26
ShadowM00nioria: I did indeed, as far back as 15.04. It is still present, and I tried re-installing it at one point.19:27
ioriaShadowM00n, did you run sudo update-initramfs -u ?19:27
ShadowM00nioria: if I'm not mistaken, that's triggered regularly, notably on kernel updates, of which many have occured. I see that upstart is the default option in grub, with systemd appearing as the alternative19:28

SemiNusQuestion: When I want to upgrade from 15.04 to 15.10,  do I need to change my  /etc/apt/sources.list   BEFORE or AFTER I run "do-release-upgrade" ?19:29
phunyguySemiNus: you shouldn't need to worry about that with do-release-upgrade19:30
phunyguyit will typically disable any third party repos anyway19:30
SemiNusphunyguy, oh, that would be a problem then - I want to keep trinity desktop!19:31
phunyguySemiNus: ahh. Good luck, then.19:31
SemiNusphunyguy, ok let me ask it from a different way - I am happy with 15.04 which is a LTS release - I only need Hugin 201519:31
anabainjak2000, you're welcome. It seems today nobody is willing to help me, so at least I'm glad to be helpful to someone, ;)19:31
phunyguy15.04 is not LTS.19:31
SemiNusI tried the Launchpad version but I head into dependency problems19:31
ShadowM00nSemiNus: after the upgrade, you can just log in to a fallback or a TTY and just uncomment the entries in your sources.list19:31
SemiNusShadowM00n, well, it's always risky - at the end of the day,  we cannot know if all will work out properly19:32
zumba_addictwhy does ctrl-p change my ubuntu to black and white?19:32
phunyguySemiNus: best to backup first ☺19:32
zumba_addictwhat is it doing?19:32
ShadowM00nSemiNus: I can confirm that Trinity works on 15.10, because I helped point out a dependency problem that prevented it from installing, which seems to be fixed now19:33
SemiNusShadowM00n, nice!  So is trinity desktop already well-known out there?19:33
ShadowM00nSemiNus: I'm not sure how well-known it is, exactly; I was trying to install it for nostalgic and research reasons. I normally use awesome-wm.19:34
SemiNusnice too19:34
SemiNusShadowM00n, well,  I started using TDE again when KDE4 totally messed up everything they could mess up19:35
SemiNusevery new release had at least one more problem than the prior one,  then I switched to TDE and I *love* it19:35
ShadowM00nSemiNus: can't say I favour their aesthetic decisions of late, but I run KDE4 on my laptop nowadays (15.04 with Kubuntu repos) and it seems to run just fine. TDE feels faster though and I'm considering moving it over to do a more in-depth comparison19:37

SemiNusso what am I supposed to do?19:55
ioriaSemiNus, maybe  purge ppa19:57
ShadowM00nSemiNus: offhand, try removing the trinity packages temporarily, perhaps? The metapackage makes it easy enough to restore it, and your settings won't be harmed. Beyond that, I haven't seen a PPA interfere with an upgrade like this, so I'm unsure.19:58
SemiNusI see19:58
bazhang!ppa-purge | SemiNus19:58
ubottuSemiNus: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html19:58

daftykinsmrsam_: juiceSSH / ConnectBot20:00
SemiNuswell, the only reason why I would upgrade at all is because of Hugin - I must use version "2015" of hugin.   Would it be easier to resolve the depedency issues with Hugin?  Because purgin the whole PPA .... I love that my system is running so reliable and stable at the moment20:00

KeeperoftheKeysMy methodology21:33
daftykinsstandard 3.5" SATA I/II/III mechanical HDD?21:33
srulineredsevy: "sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gnome-panel" , then to create shortcut "gnome-desktop-item-edit ~/Desktop/ --create-new"  point it to your .sh script21:33
KeeperoftheKeysyup21:33
daftykinssounds like it could be on a secondary controller on your motherboard, can you link to the specific mobo model?21:34
KeeperoftheKeysprobably, I'm not at home now, but I have an lshw from the machine here so I'll see21:35
daftykinsKeeperoftheKeys: different coloured SATA ports is often a dead giveaway21:36
KeeperoftheKeys(after 15.04>15.10 upgrade system became unbootable except with old kernel tried 15.10 disk-on-key didn't recognize disks)21:36
KeeperoftheKeyshmmm21:36
daftykinsif it was an upgrade, testing a 15.10 live session would be handy21:37
KeeperoftheKeysdunno, is at least a year ago I put it together, but very likely, I believ it has both sata2 and sata 3 ports, otoh lspci is identical under kernel 3.9 & 4.221:37
KeeperoftheKeyslive session test also did not recognize disks21:37
daftykinsit would be21:37

bodomdaftykins: apparently there only are 340 and 352 available21:58
whiteowlhuaaah21:58
srulibodom: just for testing can u use x.org driver?21:58
sorado you prefer mysql or postgresql? :321:59
bodomsruli: which one?21:59
daftykinsi think sruli means nouveau, the open source nvidia driver21:59
daftykinsbut that'd be moot because it probably would be fine depending on what the card is21:59
bodomoh, i had so many problems with nouveau in the past and didn't read anything better more recently. i do not think that's an option.22:00
reducei logged in as guest22:01
daftykinsso just try changing driver22:01

srulireduce: great22:02
reducethere is no obvious logout button22:02

reducestrl alt del worked though :)22:04
srulireduce: maybe reinstall with recommends22:05
reducesruli: ill do that if i run into anymore issues22:06
srulireduce: if you go to Settings > Time & Date > Clock tab , do u have an option "show a clock in teh menu bar" ?22:07
reducesruli: yes, when i untick it im left with a whole22:08
reduce*hole22:08
srulireduce: while ticked do u have the time on top bar?22:08
reduceyes, rightmost 'icon'22:08
srulireduce: anything else on top bar?22:09
reduceleftmost it says system settings, then beside the time i have the audio icon, beside that the En icon22:09
srulireduce: do u have "indicator-session" installed?22:10
reducesruli: no - is that what i need?22:11
srulireduce: i believe so, in synaptic search for "indicator" there are others which might be useful22:12
OerHeksapt install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop is the quickest way to get out of that funny install22:12

UserUSdaftykins: Install W7 on a drive that's on the same disk as ubuntu. Windows 7 installer won't recognize the drivers, but ubuntu does.22:52
daftykinsUserUS: "drivers" - what?22:52
daftykinswhat's special about your disks?22:53
UserUShardware drivers. won't even detect the hardware or gpu card.22:53
daftykinsyou wouldn't see a picture if that were true22:53
UserUSI know22:54
UserUSThat's what it was doing22:54
daftykinsyou realise in Windows 7 you have to manually install drivers right? mostly.22:54
UserUSDidn't help the hard drive was near failing22:54
UserUSI did22:54
UserUSand updated bios22:54
daftykinsthat's only wise when needed22:55
daftykinsso you're saying you installed win7 but that it was having graphics driver issues?22:55
daftykinsthere is no way you can install Windows through Linux, that's ridiculous22:55
UserUSthe person who owns it installed a 64-bit graphics card update which screwed up other ones with it22:56
UserUSit's 32-bit, and they installed amd graphics updates for an intel graphics card22:56
daftykinsok, your details of this are getting so far removed from sanity you need to start from the start22:57
daftykinsso someone has come to you with a broken Windows install?22:57
daftykinsso this has nothing to do with ubuntu at all?22:57
UserUSLol, yes. To begin with, the OS had malware, tons of it. I removed the malware (and a few rootkits) until they installed the incorrect software and messed up the registry, which messed up the kernel22:58
nicomachusso what does this have to do with ubuntu... at all?22:58
UserUSonly a linux kernel will run for some reason, aka ubuntu22:58
daftykinsthat's not how Windows works, you're making up terms and throwing them in22:58
daftykinsgo to ##windows22:58
daftykins32-bit drivers do not install on a 64-bit Windows, so the above story is 100% wrong22:59
UserUSare you serious? you can easily install even a 64-bit os on a 32-bit machine. I've done it, it just doesn't load any gui's after it boots lol23:00
bodomno luck: any nvidia driver still gives me the same issue23:01
srulibodom: as i said before to see if its the driver issue try the x.org dirver, if it works then we know whats causing it23:02
daftykinsUserUS: my bad the opposite way, you said 64-bit drivers on a 32-bit windows, that doesn't work - you're chatting rubbish. go to ##windows thanks.23:02
bodomsruli: I've been using nvidia-340 for many years and it didn't seem to change. What you call the xorg driver will just cause me more problems.23:03
ZorCocuKHi23:03
srulibodom: use it just to test the issue23:04
bekksbodom: yeah, because you are not using nvidia-340-updates23:04
bodombekks: no, i'm not23:04
anabaincan anybody tell me where to learn about how permissions are set on plugged devices under /media dir?23:04
bekksbodom: nvidia-340 does not contain updates, nvidia-340-updates does contain updates.23:05
bodombekks: 304,340,346,352 all have the same behaviour23:05
bodomand 240 used to work for a very long time23:05
bodom*34023:05
bekksbodom: yeah, nvidia-xyz dooes not contain updates, nvidia-xyz-updates does.23:05
bekksbodom: So whats the issue with that?23:06
daftykinsbodom: let's save some time here. sudo apt-get install pastebinit && dpkg -l | grep nvidia | pastebinit23:06
conallHi all. Trying to install 15.10. Currently 15.04 and windows 7 duel booted. Running into issues regarding uefi vs legacy boot. Currently using legacy boot but when I boot into ubuntu usb with legacy mode I get a kernel panic. When I boot into ubuntu uefi it doesnt see the windows installation. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance23:07
daftykinsyou can't mix the two23:07
daftykinsyou must install all OSs in the same mode23:08
bodombekks: http://picpaste.com/z8RMB0Ny.jpg what's what i get when i switch to console23:08
bekksconall: And why dont you just upgrade your 15.04 to 15.10?23:08
bodomdaftykins: http://pastebin.com/B6hcf6eC23:08
bekksbodom: try using the nomodeset kernel parameter then.23:09
conallThe new ubuntu wont detect it, so I think I wont be able to boot into it????23:09
bekksconall: that sentence doesnt make sense in the context of my question.23:09
daftykinsbodom: yeah your system is a mess, "sudo apt-get purge nvidia* " then reboot; then "sudo apt-get install nvidia-340-updates as bekks said if you can23:09
bodombekks: mhhh23:10
=== SonikkuAmerica is now known as obiwancannoli
bodomdaftykins: what do you mean by "mess"?23:11
conallsorry bekks, im pretty new to all this. when I do an "os-prober" it will not detect the windows partition, so when grub-update is run at the end of the install, Im afraid I wont be able to boot into windows23:11
bekksconall: Why dont you update your 15.04 to 15.10?23:11
bekksconall: Why do you run os-proper?23:11
daftykinsbodom: you're mixing 3 different nvidia package versions there23:11

=== satbuddhi is now known as sat-buddhi
bekksbodom: you have several versions installed.23:12
conallah, my current install is quite clogged. And I hear a fresh install is cleaner than an upgrade23:12
daftykinsbodom: do what i said.23:13
bekksconall: then just clean it up. this isnt windows.23:13
conallbekks, basically I want a nice clean fresh install23:13
conallbekks, probably a good idea. Thanks23:14
bekksconall: Why? This isnt windows. It will not be any faster, better or bigger.23:14
bodombekks, daftykins: http://pastebin.com/UJ55uY1p23:14
bekksbodom: Do what daftykins said.23:14
bodomi can still purge the others, but only 340 is installed23:14
daftykinsbodom: that's not relevant, run what i said for the love of Tux23:14
conallWell I noticed that my current ubuntu install is quite slow to boot and gets alot of those annoying errors23:14
bekksconall: So fix the errors.23:15
conallill try bekks, thanks23:15
bodomdaftykins: neverming, thank you for your time23:17
nicomachusbodom: what he said will solve your issue. it will take 5 minutes.23:17
nicomachusor less.23:17
daftykinsbodom: do the lot then add back in the one desired to be run, i have given advice like this for years and avoiding it like you are now is being purely idiotic.23:19
daftykinsi know you think being removed means they're not a problem, but you are WRONG.23:19
Xcodywhy you guys mad23:20
nicomachuslol. not mad, it's just frustrating when you spend time trying to help people and they don't want to take the advice that will resolve their issues.23:20
bodomdaftykins: man your advice is only leading to troubles, don't call me idiot for not following it, since i didn't call you the same for suggesting it23:20
bekksbodom: that adbvice will not lead to any troubles.23:20
daftykins^23:21
bekksbodom: he didnt call you names, but you obviously dont know the difference between purge and remove.23:21
daftykinsre-read the bit about years.23:21
bekksSo stop discussing this and just do what he told you to.23:21
nicomachusor don't, and keep having problems.23:21
bodomawww man, everybody seems out of hid mind here. Fine, let's do this waste of time just to prove you all are wrong.23:22
MWMdoes that mean you were wrong?23:24

minhi guys, how do I change the mouse DPI for Ubuntu Mate 15.10? I am using Razar Naga Taipan currently. Thanks!23:41
minit is moving way too fast and I am having hard time resizing windows23:42
bekksmin: so reduce mouse speed in the sttings.23:42
nicomachusmin: you can use xinput. I'm not sure if MATE has it in a GUI settings menu anywhere or not.23:42
minok thank you23:43
nicomachusmin: if you do "xinput list" you can find the id=# for your mouse, and then "xinput list-props #" to find Device Accel Constant Deceleration value.23:43
minbekks: i am sorry it is already in the lowest setting for acceleration23:44
