| amanojaku | Hello, I have multiple hard drives in my computer, some are formatted as NTFS where I store files. When I first installed Ubuntu, I was able to access them. Now I get some long winded error about how Windows did not shut down properly and I can access my NTFS drives anymore. The error message is incorrect, I did shut down my computer correctly.

| ikonia | chkdsk your windows drives | 00:04 |

| === anonymous is now known as Guest60090 | ||
| EriC^^ | Paul^^: yes, the command renames 30_os-prober so it's called 09_os-prober , and so it gets run earlier than 10_linux when you execute update-grub | 00:08 |
| ikonia | amanojaku: the disk is still marked as dirty, or has a hibernation file in place, you will need to run a full chkdsk to get it marked as clean (or show errors) and remove any hibernation file | 00:09 |

| Chicken_Wrap | Hey. | 00:26 |
| Chicken_Wrap | I just really messed up my Ubuntu install. I installed <kubuntu-desktop> and I think it overwrote LightDM since it presents itself with its own splash screen, when it should be Unity's. Now whenever I try to log into my box, I can hear the 'boot drums', but I can't actually see anything but KDE's default cursor. So, basically, I broke my install. D | 00:27 |
| Chicken_Wrap | oes anyone have any ideas? | 00:27 |
| daftykins | Chicken_Wrap: i believe kubuntu uses sddm on 15.04+ so perhaps lightdm isn't even in use | 00:34 |
| Chicken_Wrap | daftykins: Thant was an option, but LightDM was the default, so I selected that. | 00:40 |

I would like to know how to resize (NON- destructive) to encompass all of the free space left on the sd so i should end up with a 60 mb partition and a 14 gb ish partition | 05:24 |
| murtaza_ | it shows no additional drivers available! | 05:25 |
| Bashing-om | murtaza_: Perhaps that card is no longer supported ? show the channel - in a pastebin - what you are working with ' lspci -vnn | grep -i VGA ' . | 05:27 |
| Loshki | surgy: I assume the image you dd'ed to the sd card contained those two partitions. If not, I don't know what you did, and so hesitate to advise you. But if I were you, my next step would be to try and run gparted on the sd card. | 05:27 |
| surgy | Loshki: gparted will allow me to resize the one partition? | 05:29 |

| rww | lin_lin13: they're sourced by system services | 09:11 |
| rww | I'm not overly familiar with Ubuntu's ntp setup, but on Debian, if you have ntp installed and running at boot, adding -g to /etc/default/ntp (which is there by... default) does the equivalent of ntpdate on startup. | 09:13 |
| lin_lin13 | rww, under the /etc/default files will automatic run ?? | 09:16 |

| yasushi | helo | 11:17 |
| yasushi | i want question | 11:17 |
| _curiousBeing | i'm new to CSE and want to know how to install Emacs on my ubuntu 15.04? | 11:17 |
| yasushi | never knew about that | 11:18 |
| yasushi | what is it | 11:18 |
| CacheMoney1 | apt-get install emacs | 11:18 |
| _curiousBeing | emacs - an editor for programming | 11:18 |
| josephyoung | open software center, type 'emacs' in search bar and click install? | 11:19 |
| yasushi | yes | 11:19 |
| CacheMoney1 | open up terminal | 11:19 |
| yasushi | hello anyone... i have trouble when running java in browser | 11:19 |
| CacheMoney1 | sudo apt-get install emacs --force-yes | 11:19 |
| yasushi | it needs live applet.. how do i download | 11:19 |
| _curiousBeing | CacheMoney1: I wanted the no-x version of it and when I do that it says something like: Unable to locate package emacs24-nox | 11:20 |
| Li | how to know what commands/programs are available after installing a package? | 11:20 |
| _curiousBeing | I tried : sudo apt-get install emacs24-nox | 11:20 |
| _curiousBeing | but got the same message | 11:20 |
| josephyoung | you sure there is a package named emacs24-nox? | 11:21 |
| _curiousBeing | josephyoung: yes, when I ran emacs for the first time, it showed me the list of packages present for emacs installation | 11:22 |
| _curiousBeing | i'm using ubuntu 15.04 | 11:23 |
| slidinghorn | CacheMoney1: suggesting --force-yes is unnecessary. It's better to provide the basic command "sudo apt-get install emacs" so that the user can see if anything suspicious comes through (errors, dependency problems, etc) | 11:23 |
| _curiousBeing | also, I have the emacs 24.5 archive file aswell, if anycan can guide me how to install the nox version of it will also be fine.. :) | 11:24 |
| slidinghorn | _curiousBeing: sudo apt-get install emacs24-nox Just to be sure that you know: that version does not support a GUI | 11:26 |
| _curiousBeing | slidinghorn: i wanted the command line version only | 11:26 |
| _curiousBeing | ok, if there is any command for installing emacs from tar.gz file with command line "nox" only mode? | 11:29 |
| slidinghorn | _curiousBeing: There's no need to install from a tar.gz. Just use the version in the repos by using the command I posted to you | 11:30 |
| josephyoung | _curiousBeing: wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/e/emacs24/emacs24-nox_24.4+1-4ubuntu5_i386.deb | 11:31 |
| slidinghorn | !java | yasushi | 11:31 |
| ubottu | yasushi: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 11:31 |

| _curiousBeing | josephyoung: thanks for the link, think this would be fine to manually install.. !! | 11:34 |

| _curiousBeing | josephyoung: sorry man, this says dependencies unsatisfiable | 11:35 |
| slidinghorn | ^^ that's why | 11:36 |
| _curiousBeing | I checked the repositories again and I could'nt find the nox version now.. amazing | 11:37 |
| josephyoung | add "deb http://cz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu vivid main" in your "/etc/apt/sources.list", and try your command again, it may work | 11:37 |
| slidinghorn | _curiousBeing: If you're running 15.04, it's there...again, sudo apt-get install emacs24-nox | 11:38 |
| josephyoung | try sudo-apt update first, and apt-cache search emacs24-nox | 11:41 |
| * slidinghorn gets the feeling he's being ignored, sighs & throws his hands in the air | 11:41 | |
| ikonia | slidinghorn: don't do pointless /me commands | 11:42 |
| ikonia | (please) | 11:42 |
| slidinghorn | you're right, sorry | 11:42 |
| ikonia | not a big deal | 11:42 |
| _curiousBeing | josephyoung: will thes commands take a lot of time to process? | 11:47 |
| slidinghorn | _curiousBeing: the command josephyoung gave will not work. for the 3rd time, please just open a terminal and enter sudo apt-get install emacs24-nox | 11:48 |
| _curiousBeing | I have very less data package on my network | 11:48 |
| slidinghorn | _curiousBeing: it should tell you the total downloaded amount before it starts installing | 11:49 |
| _curiousBeing | slidinghorn: ok, then I should stop the update process.. | 11:49 |
| _curiousBeing | slidinghorn: he he, it showed me after the download completed | 11:50 |

| onc3young | hey guys | 12:34 |
| ary | Hi, I have one question. I have 2 hard drives in my ubuntu. One is the system (300 GB) with ext4 FS, and other is where i put my stufs (2 TB) with ntfs FS. On second HD i have 3 folders, they are media, games and install. I would like to move my entire home to the media folder, and configure my ubuntu to see that folder like my official home. How do I do that? | 12:38 |
| ikonia | ary: do not put your home directory on ntfs | 12:39 |
| cfhowlett | !home | ary | 12:39 |
| ubottu | ary: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 12:39 |
| ary | ikonia, why i cant put my home on a ntfs partition? | 12:40 |
| ikonia | beccause it's normally mounted userspace, which is not what the system want and doesn't support things such as permisions, it will cause you problems | 12:40 |
| cfhowlett | ary, will cause you SERIOUS problems | 12:41 |
| ary | :( | 12:41 |
| ary | fine | 12:41 |
| ary | need to be an ext4 then | 12:41 |

| william_doe | I'm on a pretty new installation of ubuntu 14.04 and having some stability issues and video glitching issues. Have tried the drivers listed under Settings/Software and Updates/Additional drivers but the official Nvidia ones make my system really unstable (sometimes not even able to boot). The Nouveau driver is functional but sometimes glitches bad playing games (menus not displaying and other weird glitches) and occasionally have issues switching f | 13:04 |
| william_doe | rom the game to the desktop (all video freezes but audio and network are still functioning). I'm using an Nvidia Geforce GTX 850M. Any ideas what I should do from here? | 13:04 |
| ikonia | william_doe: I suspect you mean wine games | 13:05 |
| ikonia | (or games run through wine) | 13:05 |
| william_doe | No I'm playing terraria it has a linux version. | 13:06 |
| anas | Hello | 13:06 |
| anas | Im new here | 13:06 |
| ikonia | interesting, swap away from the nv driver then and try nvidia | 13:06 |
| ikonia | see if the current version is any better | 13:06 |
| cfhowlett | anas, welcome. ask your ubuntu questions | 13:06 |
| ikonia | check the xorg logs, | 13:06 |

| anas | why people use IRC? | 13:07 |
| Li | cfhowlett: yes it found it from terminal apttitude search but isn't launchable from it | 13:07 |
| anas | i mean instead if skype or whatever similar, many peoples use IRC | 13:07 |
| cfhowlett | anas, this is ubuntu support. that is the topic. | 13:07 |
| william_doe | ikonia, i tried the nvideo drivers and it actually gets a lot worse. I usually can't even boot. I thought about using drivers from nvidia site...maybe even a beta driver but I'm kinda confused on how to install it | 13:07 |
| anas | if=of* | 13:07 |
| ikonia | william_doe: is the 850m one of those nvidia/intel ones, or just straight nvidia | 13:07 |
| william_doe | ikonia, there is also an intel graphics processor on chip yes | 13:08 |
| anas | so people use this unbuntu support to allow direct questions, right? | 13:08 |
| cfhowlett | anas, yes | 13:08 |
| anas | and each IRC channel has its own purpose | 13:08 |
| ikonia | william_doe: there are some options, such as forcing performance mode, and disabling the intel switching that can make those cards in general more "stable" | 13:08 |
| ikonia | william_doe: worth looking at those options | 13:08 |
| anas | ah i see | 13:09 |
| anas | ty cfhowlett | 13:09 |
| william_doe | ikonia, okay i will google around those topics and see if i can come up with anything useful. thanks | 13:10 |

| ikonia | mrsam__: and that your total lack of ability to listen and follow through on the information you've been given would not continue | 17:22 |
| mrsam__ | so | 17:22 |
| mrsam__ | ? | 17:22 |
| ikonia | mrsam__: you remember that yes ? | 17:22 |
| mrsam__ | im not a single user here | 17:22 |
| ikonia | mrsam__: you remember that yes ? | 17:22 |
| mrsam__ | no | 17:22 |
| ikonia | mrsam__: ok - I'll explain it again clearly then | 17:23 |
| mrsam__ | tnx | 17:23 |
| ikonia | mrsam__: you use this channel to do all the work for you, you don't listen to information and advice and you waste peoples time by not doing any work for yourself and not even looking how to use something before claiming there is a problem | 17:23 |
| ikonia | mrsam__: that constant approach is not acceptable, we are here to help you - not do work for you | 17:23 |
| ikonia | mrsam__: so what you need to do is quit this channel, look how to use the tools you're trying to use, if you are having a problem, come back with specific problems, | 17:24 |
| ikonia | if you don't even know how something is supposed to look/work but you claim a problem that is unaccepable | 17:24 |
| ikonia | so /part this channel, research how to use instanbul, or reference the detailed information we gave you yesterday on other tools | 17:24 |
| ikonia | if you're having a specific problem, come back and state it | 17:24 |
| ikonia | clear ? | 17:24 |
| mrsam__ | you dont looklike other people it is clear for me | 17:25 |
| ikonia | I don't know what you just said, sorry | 17:25 |
| ikonia | mrsam__: do you understand what I'm telling you ? | 17:25 |
| mrsam__ | i saied you dont speak friendly...i thin | 17:25 |
| mrsam__ | i think* | 17:25 |
| ikonia | mrsam__: I am speaking clearly | 17:26 |
| ikonia | I and others have spent a great deal of time explaining a lot of things in detail to you | 17:26 |
| ikonia | mrsam__: do you understand what I'm telling you to do, yes/no ? | 17:26 |
| mrsam__ | ok | 17:26 |
| ikonia | thank you | 17:26 |

| Guest48203 | MonkeyDust, WIFI doesn't work, what are the most recent drivers for the RTL8723AE card | 17:32 |

| ikonia | so there are loads of ftp servers, most are easy, but ask yourself if you really want something as insecure as ftp | 17:55 |
| Lurchy | im thinking of pointing a domain to home server(dynanic ip issues being what they are) should i just setup typical ftp server with ubuntu? | 17:55 |

| dontknow | removing all ubuntu stuff from source | 18:32 |
| ikonia | dontknow: what ? | 18:34 |
| dontknow | ikonia, if you want to release ubuntu with different branding you have to remove "ubuntu" word from all sources as far as i know | 18:35 |
| ikonia | same as any | 18:35 |
| ikonia | redhat, centos etc all do it | 18:35 |
| ikonia | it's just removing trademark | 18:35 |
| ikonia | it's common sense | 18:35 |
| dontknow | ikonia, but you need to search all the source for that right? | 18:36 |
| ikonia | yes | 18:36 |
| ikonia | same as any other distro | 18:36 |

| rigo2532345 | i have a 500gb hdd, 450 at the end is used for data. i completely deleted the first 50gb, created a 45gb ext4 and a 5gb swap. the sda1 45gb has the boot flag. | 18:57 |
| rigo2532345 | i already tried to add nomodeset to grub. but the laptop still keeps rebooting endless loop about 0 msec after booting up. | 18:58 |

| vincent42 | hi all, how can I disable the startup of a server such as lighdm (ubuntu 14.04) | 19:10 |
| ikonia | do you mean how to disable the desktop ? | 19:10 |
| badbodh | vincent42, try "service lightdm disable" | 19:12 |
| rigo2532345 | shit. why am i coming here all the time, you dont even understand a simple question... vincent42 you run this command: echo "manual" | sudo tee -a /etc/init/lightdm.override | 19:13 |
| rigo2532345 | i guess i wont get any answers here if the question is not something like how do i ping google or such. | 19:13 |
| rigo2532345 | bye. | 19:13 |
| vincent42 | rigo2532345: indeed that's the right answer | 19:14 |
| vincent42 | also just found it on google | 19:14 |
| vincent42 | at least I hope it is right, I haven't rebooted yet | 19:14 |
| vincent42 | badbodh: there's no disable command | 19:14 |
| vincent42 | only force-reload restart start stop | 19:15 |
| badbodh | pity. systemd rocks \o/ | 19:15 |
| vincent42 | what version of ubuntu starts using systemd ? | 19:16 |
| badbodh | apart from rigo's solution you could try bum (bootup manager) that controls services. it's a GUI app. | 19:16 |
| badbodh | 15.XX | 19:16 |
| OerHeks | from 15.04 and up | 19:16 |
| vincent42 | ok, has anyonh ever managed to run lircd on startup on ubuntu 14.04 ? for some reason it does not start | 19:17 |
| vincent42 | there's an /etc/init.d/lirc script | 19:18 |
| vincent42 | but starting it manually does nothing | 19:18 |
| vincent42 | stop emits strange errors | 19:18 |
| badbodh | /etc/init.d is kinda bookshelf. you pick stuff from there to autostart. | 19:19 |
| badbodh | symlinks go to rc-folders in /etc, use rc-update command | 19:19 |
| vincent42 | ok | 19:19 |
| vincent42 | but as long as running the script manually fail I guess there's a problem | 19:20 |
| badbodh | there are like 5-6 rc folders, to determine in what sequence the services get started. | 19:20 |
| badbodh | dunno much about it | 19:20 |

| Bashing-om | xsd: Maybe try to have the firmware pass to the kernel different ACPI table ? From a liveDVD what returns: ' sudo strings /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT | grep -i windows ' . Maybe add a boot parameter to the boot command line ? | 20:23 |
| xsd | Bashing-om how i do that | 20:23 |
| Bashing-om | xsd: We will eventually - when we know what ACPI table to pass - edit grub's boot parameter . | 20:25 |
| xsd | i cant boot nothin at al none of my both systems | 20:26 |
| Bashing-om | xsd: I say again - from the liveDVD - or USB . that medium you used to install 'buntu . | 20:27 |
| xsd | it locked me out all usb ports | 20:28 |

| Bashing-om | xsd: That booting up the firmware for the settings is long before an operating system is even considered by the system . Booting to the firmware settings has nothing to do with the operating system . Try again ( Acer as the machine manufactirer ?) . | 20:30 |

| akik | dsc_: so you can use ifup/ifdown to control your wlan interface | 20:34 |
| Bashing-om | xsd: Hummm ... You must have been able to boot that live environmnet at one time --- as you have installed 'buntu . Boot that loveDVD on the same maode ( bios/UEFI) as the mode installed in . | 20:34 |
| dsc_ | cool akik, seems like I did not stop network-manager. | 20:35 |
| dsc_ | akik: would you happen to know if I could instead talk to network-manager directly? Like, in the ubuntu GUI you can click on the network icon and connect to a wifi, perhaps I can interface with an API for this? | 20:35 |
| akik | dsc_: yes, nmcli/nm-tool | 20:36 |
| dsc_ | akik: isnt that whole network-manager stuff written in python anyway | 20:36 |
| dsc_ | oh cool. :) | 20:36 |
| akik | dsc_: your requirement changed quite quickly :) | 20:37 |

| Bashing-om | xsd: Sorry, if you can not boot to the firware setting - I do not know what to tell you . Is this a laptop machine ? | 20:39 |
| Bashing-om | firmware* | 20:39 |
| xsd | ah pc | 20:40 |
| Lurchy | trying to setup options for zoneminder...... | 20:40 |
| ioria | Lurch it's just a warning i think .. apache is working, isn't it ? | 20:41 |
| Lurchy | yeah | 20:41 |
| Bashing-om | xsd: As a desktop, you might try powering the box down, pull the AC power cord, depress the power button for 5 seconds - clears CMOS memory - .. reconnect the power and now see if you can boot to the firmware settings . | 20:42 |
| Lurchy | wait...I goto 192.168.0.1:80 to look for response | 20:42 |
| Lurchy | err | 20:42 |
| xsd | tryed that | 20:42 |
| xsd | i'm gone nuke it :p | 20:42 |
| Lurchy | The "IP":80 of the ubuntu box to see if apache responds with default page | 20:42 |
| Lurchy | correct ioria? | 20:43 |
| ioria | Lurch if you put your ip in the firefox bar ? | 20:43 |
| Lurchy | yeah | 20:43 |
| Lurchy | ubuntu box is diff ip inside my network than this client box I am on | 20:43 |
| xsd | it now only boot in windows :x | 20:44 |
| xsd | no ubuntu | 20:44 |
| akik | Lurchy: the servername it's talking about is in the httpd config file | 20:44 |
| Lurchy | ioria...apache2 working fine | 20:45 |
| ioria | Lurch now is apache2.conf, i think in /etc/apache2 | 20:45 |
| ioria | or apache.conf | 20:45 |
| Lurchy | akik....so..zoneminder is looking for servername and doesnt see what it needs. | 20:45 |
| Lurchy | hmmm | 20:46 |
| Bashing-om | xsd: EFI ? Windows installed in UEFI mode, and ubuntu in CCSM ? .. the two booting methods are not compatible . | 20:47 |
| flknv | hi, I want to backup my ubuntu system and this is my first time doing this. any recommendations on what I should backup? | 20:47 |

| Lurchy | AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1. Set the 'ServerName' directive globally to suppress this message | 20:47 |
| dsc_ | akik: your article is nice | 20:47 |
| Lurchy | do I need to set global "servername" in ubunutu config file? | 20:48 |
| akik | Lurchy: usually you set servername to match the ip & name that you are serving content from | 20:48 |
| Lurchy | ahh | 20:48 |
| xsd | i think so yes Bashing-om | 20:48 |
| Lurchy | my ubuntu box has a diff static ip inside my network...it is not 127.0.1.1 | 20:48 |
| Bashing-om | flknv: Consider - all system files are on the install medium . All that is "required" is to back up personal data ( and any edits to config files you may have made, maybe ) . | 20:49 |
| Lurchy | so..if this is the case...where do i set sername globally??? | 20:49 |
| ioria | !backup | flknv | 20:49 |
| ubottu | flknv: There are many ways to back your system up.

| Bashing-om | xsd: Until such time as you can boot up a liveUSB of ubuntu, there is not a thing else we can do . | 20:51 |
| MonkeyDust | flknv debian is not ubuntu -- config files in your home may differ | 20:51 |
| xsd | man i have two bios ships i had rested them both i everthing works agian :D | 20:52 |
| ioria | flknv, sorry, what was your original issue ? | 20:52 |
| xsd | just not booting ubuntu | 20:52 |
| xsd | but win | 20:52 |
| xsd | and live,s | 20:52 |
| xsd | etc | 20:52 |
| flknv | ioria: I just don't like ubuntu's unstability (with the positive side of being very up to date) | 20:53 |
| flknv | MonkeyDust: so I should only back up home and delete config? | 20:54 |
| ioria | flknv, maybe copy your home on a different partition (create one from live) , reinstall and rsysnc ? | 20:55 |
| elldissin | Hello, what can I do to make my old laptop boot not only with acpi=off? | 20:56 |

| bekks | Lurchy: Thats not an error, but a warning only. | 21:11 |
| Lurchy | hmmm | 21:11 |
| Bashing-om | xsd: Not much help, yet . Not done til ya booting ubuntu . As required you are welcome to ask for any additional guidance . | 21:11 |
| bekks | Lurchy: And since it clearly states it is an Apache message - guess which program is causing that message? | 21:11 |
| Lurchy | perhaps program needs the exact ip of the apache server on the network? | 21:11 |
| bekks | Lurchy: And now: which Ubuntu version are you using? | 21:11 |
| Lurchy | 15.10 | 21:11 |
| Lurchy | hmm...its an apache "error" then | 21:12 |
| bekks | Lurchy: The message clearly tells you what to do. | 21:12 |
| bekks | Lurchy: It isnt an error at all. | 21:12 |
| Lurchy | well..warning | 21:12 |

| rvgate | Hello... im trying to install ubuntu on my machine (full details here: http://tweakers.net/gallery/121456/inventaris/ (click on desktop)). Ubuntu 15.10 gets stuck on booting from the live cd at ¨Start WPA supplicant¨ and booting the live cd of 14.04 simply gives me a blank screen... any ideas? | 21:54 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: did you checksum the 14.04 iso? and did you try nomodeset? | 21:56 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, yes and no, how can i do the nomodeset? (i dont have grub installed, trying to install it next to windows 10) | 21:57 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: when the live cd boots press e over try ubuntu | 21:58 |
| EriC^^ | in the black and white grub menu, and add nomodeset at the end of the line that says linux /boot/vmlinuz.efi ...... | 21:58 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, it doesnt even reach that point where i can select try ubuntu.. | 21:59 |
| hoitorz | rvgate: really | 21:59 |
| rvgate | hoitorz, no need to send me pm´s, blocked/reported | 22:01 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, any idea´s? | 22:04 |
| Bashing-om | rvgate: EriC^^ Win10 generally == UEFI, and the ubuntu installer must also be in UEFI mode . (installing to the same hard drive ) | 22:07 |
| rvgate | Bashing-om, EriC^^, it is going to the same ssd, yes | 22:09 |

| EriC^^ | purge nvidia* won't harm too | 22:12 |

| Bashing-om | aotea: ' sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia* ' should be good 'nuff to use the open source driver upon a reboot . | 22:13 |
| aotea | Should I submit bugreport with the nvidia-bug-report on launchpad also? or is those logs mostly for nvidia devs? | 22:13 |
| === ludza1 is now known as ludza | ||
| Bashing-om | aotea: IF you think you have found a bug .. by all means report it . The big boys will sort it out if properly submitted . | 22:15 |
| aotea | Or well, before I do I'll see that the system running under nouveau is stable and doesn't suffer from GPU falling off the bus as the Nvidia drivers seemed to have issue doing | 22:15 |
| aotea | Bashing-om, Do one include kern.log or which logs could be important submitting? | 22:16 |

| Bashing-om | rvgate: Best ask of EriC^^ when it comes to booting UEFI . I have no experoence in that realm . bear in mind it is doable as thousands have done it . | 22:42 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, In your BIOS what is your SATA type set to? | 22:43 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, let me restart and check, give me a second | 22:44 |
| eikon81g | There may be more than one setting in the BIOS you may try to change it over sometimes the setting is like native or IDE | 22:44 |
| Ollie65 | About file permissions: Several users need shared r/w access to a (sub)directory. One user needs access to that shared directory and a few other files. My approach would be to create a group with those users and set access permissions to 770. Then for the remaining files (for the single user) set permissions to 700. Do you agree this is correct? | 22:45 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, you mind if i start a hangouts chat? | 22:45 |
| ubuntu933 | is any human intervention required while upgrading distro via the software updater starting from the "Setting new software channels"? Coz im not on a much fast connection and planning to sleep while it downloads whole night? | 22:46 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, SATA mode is set to IDE | 22:47 |
| eikon81g | ubuntu933, yes, you would need to give the root pw when the upgrade is ready | 22:47 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, I don't really use hangouts you can PM me.. | 22:48 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, did you have other options there? | 22:48 |
| ubuntu933 | eikon81g, that would be at just before the installing phase, no? | 22:48 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, disabled/ide/ahci/raid | 22:48 |
| eikon81g | right the download should run just fine, once it finishes I believe it will prompt you and you will need to give it the pw | 22:49 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, maybe give ahci a shot and see what it does | 22:49 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, then boot using normal or eufi? | 22:49 |
| eikon81g | generally IDE would work fine but some of the newer BIOS configurations act goofy when it comes to booting from usb etc | 22:50 |
| === nya is now known as Guest60688 | ||
| eikon81g | did you try normal first? | 22:50 |
| eikon81g | set the USB to first in the boot order or when you have the option to during boot hit "f12" or whatever to select a boot device | 22:51 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, thats where it got stuck initially... then switched to eufi that allowed me to get the menu and do the nomodeset | 22:51 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, im not using usb to boot btw, using an old fashioned dvd | 22:51 |
| eikon81g | I would do the normal and get into the grub settings and set it to nomodeset | 22:52 |

| xangua | ubuntu933: they stay and also update | 22:55 |
| eikon81g | you will need to run a command to remove the old headers | 22:55 |
| ubuntu933 | before? | 22:55 |
| eikon81g | this is the one I've always used | 22:55 |
| eikon81g | NO NO after.. | 22:56 |

| ubuntu933 | this removes the old kernel headers right? | 22:56 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, Bashing-om, booted nicely, detecting windows properly and now installing it alongside it :D | 22:56 |
| eikon81g | to me it's a lot of jargon but when you run the command it will clean out old updates | 22:57 |
| eikon81g | and unused kernal | 22:57 |
| rvgate | !cookie | eikon81g | 22:57 |
| ubottu | eikon81g: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 22:57 |
| eikon81g | Hey hey.. we win | 22:57 |
| ubuntu933 | eikon81g, well thank you... bye | 22:57 |
| eikon81g | now heres the catch since you installed windows or it was likely installed with the setting for IDE then it may hang you up in windows. | 22:57 |
| Bashing-om | rvgate: After the install completes, may have to install a graphic's driver - maybe . | 22:58 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, http://www.askvg.com/how-to-change-sata-hard-disk-mode-from-ide-to-ahci-raid-in-bios-after-installing-windows/ | 22:58 |
| eikon81g | IFFF you get a bluescreen when booting into windows that is your issue. If not just continue biz as usual | 22:58 |
| rvgate | Bashing-om, i didnt have to do the nomodeset this time.. and it actually using full resolution during installation :) (15.10) | 22:59 |
| eikon81g | I figured it had to do with that I wasn't sure.. I'm just a spray and pray kinda guy | 22:59 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, nice | 22:59 |
| OneM_Industries | So, I have an old RTL8185l WIFI card that I want to use with LUbuntu 15.10, but the only drivers that I can see for it are ancient. Any ideas? | 22:59 |
| Ollie65 | Ok guys, good luck out there. I wish you a good night, I'm hitting the sack :-) | 23:00 |
| eikon81g | OneM_Industries, a usb card? | 23:00 |
| solars | hi, how can I fix Dist-upgrade failed: 'The package 'ubuntu-release-upgrader-gtk' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.' | 23:00 |
| eikon81g | later Ollie65 | 23:00 |
| OneM_Industries | No, PCI card. | 23:00 |
| OneM_Industries | We got it in '06 or '07. | 23:01 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, thanks for that link.. ill try booting into windows after this is done and see if the room lights up blue :P | 23:01 |
| eikon81g | I was saying you could grab a usb wifi card on the cheap | 23:01 |
| eikon81g | OneM_Industries, I was saying you could grab a usb wifi card on the cheap | 23:01 |
| OneM_Industries | Kinda trying to make do with what I have. | 23:01 |
| eikon81g | solars, what version are you on and what are you trying to go to? | 23:02 |
| eikon81g | np rvgate | 23:02 |
| solars | eikon81g, 14.04 and I'd like to change to 15.x | 23:03 |
| eikon81g | solars, it may take a little more work but it looks like since there is a bug on this you may need to go with a workaround.. | 23:04 |
| solars | eikon81g, if there is one? | 23:04 |
| eikon81g | solars, have you considered just formatting and going back with a clean install? | 23:04 |
| MonkeyDust | solars better wait for 16.04, 4 months from now | 23:04 |
| solars | eikon81g, can't format as I have a lot of stuff on this machine | 23:04 |
| solars | MonkeyDust, that's lts, right? | 23:04 |
| MonkeyDust | solars yes, you can upgrade lts > lts | 23:05 |
| solars | hmm yes then I think I'll wait | 23:05 |
| solars | this seems way too buggy | 23:05 |
| eikon81g | Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users. << | 23:05 |
| kasa | hello? | 23:05 |
| eikon81g | I don't know of another way around it personally.. someone here may be able to assist further if you hang around for awhile.. | 23:06 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, well, win10 is broken :P | 23:06 |
| eikon81g | well then once you get it installed you could always chance the SATA mode back to IDE boot into windows, make the registry change from the link I sent and then reboot change the bios seting back to achi and then boot BAU | 23:07 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, yup :D thanks again | 23:07 |
| eikon81g | OR try to use the RAID setting instead.. | 23:07 |
| eikon81g | seems that one has a little bit more compatibility | 23:07 |

| eikon81g | deancandra, whats the question? | 23:12 |
| eikon81g | EriC^^, he was having trouble getting the ubuntu install to recognize the windows installation on his machine we got that sorted but now his windows install is bsod'ing I supplied a link for a fix | 23:13 |
| eikon81g | I think he will get it.. just a little tinkering | 23:13 |
| kasa | not | 23:14 |
| deancandra | lol my windows cant bootup coz i move c partition with gparted | 23:14 |
| deancandra | poor me | 23:14 |

| eikon81g | deancandra, http://www.partitionwizard.com/help/rebuild-mbr.html | 23:16 |
| eikon81g | it probably has to do with the MBR and you would need to fix that to get it to boot again | 23:16 |
| === Cookie2016 is now known as sireebob | ||
| eikon81g | deancandra, that tool I posted may help but I've not used it before.. The mbr needs to be repaired to get back into windows | 23:18 |
| kasa | could anybody help me? | 23:18 |
| deancandra | ill check it first | 23:18 |
| kasa | i would like to conect my pc via HDMI>DP | 23:19 |
| kasa | anybody knows how to say linux to throw image via HDMI? | 23:19 |
| eikon81g | kasa, are you running Ubuntu or are you on Windows? | 23:20 |
| eikon81g | ok so on Ubuntu you can use the hardkey on the keyboard to switch the display once you have it connected | 23:20 |
| kasa | Display port ist my screen and i have the cable to connect it via HDMI to my pc | 23:20 |
| eikon81g | sometimes it is one of the "FN" keys | 23:20 |
| kasa | Linux 17.03 Kernel 4.2.2 | 23:21 |
| kasa | in not laptop | 23:21 |
| ikonia | that looks like mint | 23:21 |
| eikon81g | connect the monitor and then use the display settings to activate the second display | 23:21 |
| kasa | it is | 23:21 |
| kasa | Mint linux distro | 23:21 |

| kasa | ahh sorry | 23:22 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, EriC^^, this may not be ubuntu related anymore... but the entries i need to edit are already set on the option they need to be according to the guide, trying the alternative method now | 23:22 |
| kasa | it is because i was looking for two dogs users and nameless | 23:22 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, that or you may be able to even go back to IDE all together now that its set up | 23:22 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, what is the recommended mode? i'd rather stick to AHCI if it is preferred over IDE | 23:23 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, or try raid like I was saying it may get you by as well | 23:23 |
| eikon81g | well RAID includes support for AHCI from what I've read so if not IDE maybe RAID | 23:24 |
| boxmein | ohai, I dun goofed and VLC utilized 11GB memory and made my load average go up to 20 for a moment | 23:24 |
| eikon81g | IDE is preferred for my use but my machine didn't get wonky on install either.. | 23:24 |
| kasa | it is other linux mint help chats rooms? | 23:24 |
| boxmein | and then I set a hard user memory limit of 5GB | 23:24 |
| boxmein | and now chrome is showing out-of-memory errors with any tab when over three tabs are open | 23:25 |
| boxmein | aw-snaps* | 23:25 |
| boxmein | and terminals won't open, etc | 23:25 |
| deancandra | could i install an ubuntu on flashdrive instead of harddrive? i mean install like ussualy not a live usb | 23:25 |
| bekks | deancandra: Yes. | 23:26 |
| aotea | boxmein, no harm in using RAM now is there? Why set the hard limit? | 23:26 |
| boxmein | aotea: I only have 6GB of RAM | 23:26 |
| boxmein | aotea: so utilizing 11GB is a bit harmful :D | 23:27 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: pause for a second | 23:27 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, panic mode engaged | 23:27 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: can you boot the ubuntu live usb? | 23:27 |
| boxmein | deancandra: did that for arch, totally can | 23:27 |
| EriC^^ | disengage | 23:27 |
| EriC^^ | :D | 23:27 |
| deancandra | but i dont see my flashdrive apears on ubuntu install wizard, only detect my HDD | 23:27 |
| eikon81g | EriC^^, takes point | 23:27 |
| boxmein | deancandra: if you're really into it you can install linux onto the second partition, so windows/other computers can still use the first for mass storage | 23:27 |
| eikon81g | deancandra, what format is the flashdrive currently? | 23:28 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, yes i can pause... currently in the bios.. mode set to RAID (didnt boot windows).. ubuntu installed, live cd present, and pausing funtil further instructions | 23:29 |
| EriC^^ | are you using raid with your disks? | 23:29 |
| deancandra | last i check is fat32, do i need format that flashdrive into specific filesystem? | 23:29 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, no... changed it as it was suggested by eikon81g just to see if it works | 23:30 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: ok, change it back to what it was | 23:30 |
| EriC^^ | then boot the live usb and let us know when it boots up | 23:30 |
| boxmein | deancandra: yep, the flashdrive needs empty space or an ext-something partition afaik | 23:30 |
| Guy1524 | hey guys so I have a question about ubuntu touch but the #ubuntu-touch channel is empty so I am asking here. I have a samsung rugby pro from att and I want to install ubuntu touch. I have completed all the desktop steps and now I am trying to unlock the phone. Unfortunately, even when I am able to get into recovery mode my computer does not recognize my device when I use "fastboot devices" any solutions? | 23:30 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, changing it to AHCI mode and rebooting into live cd | 23:30 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, didnt we start in IDE? | 23:31 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: ok | 23:31 |
| eikon81g | (when it wasn't booting?) | 23:31 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, EriC^^, windows only boots in IDE mode | 23:31 |
| rvgate | also, i feel weird mentioning windows in this chat :P | 23:32 |
| eikon81g | well it has to do with a dual boot setup which directly pertains to this.. imo | 23:32 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, when it is in IDE are you able to do both ubuntu and windows? | 23:33 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, didnt try that one yet | 23:33 |
| Guy1524 | how often should I repeat my question when nobody answers | 23:33 |
| eikon81g | that may be the way to do it stick with EriC^^ on his rundown and I will just watch | 23:33 |
| eikon81g | !rules | Guy1524 | 23:33 |
| ubottu | Guy1524: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 23:33 |
| eikon81g | sounds like you need the ADB drivers for that device but it is not a topic for this channel | 23:34 |
| boxmein | http://hastebin.com/gaxiquqiye.css D: | 23:34 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, let me test IDE mode for the ubuntu installation first... i want to know | 23:34 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 23:35 |
| xangua | Guy1524: 220 users there, also ever heard about patience and the answer of "can I install Ubuntu touch on my random Android device" is probably no | 23:35 |
| deancandra | Guy1524 : have u try using adb to flash it? | 23:35 |
| rvgate | eikon81g, EriC^^, IDE mode does not boot ubuntu :P but i think eric already knew this, gives me fsck result and stops | 23:35 |
| deancandra | really on recover you cant use fastboot | 23:35 |
| Guy1524 | deancandra: sorry I do not know what you mean by flashing it | 23:35 |
| eikon81g | Gotcha.. | 23:35 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, changing it to AHCI mode now, and booting into live cd... (you sure about the live cd? ubuntu installation works fine in that mode) | 23:36 |
| Guy1524 | xangua: most if not all of them are afk, yes I have, I was just wondering how often I should repost, and lastly that is why I asked here, you don't have to be so rude :P | 23:37 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: what was it originally set to? when windows worked? | 23:37 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, windows works on IDE mode, but then i had troubles getting ubuntu live cd booted | 23:37 |
| xangua | Guy1524: I'm just being realist, maybe if you ask Samsung for divers and they give it to you, you could start the hard work of port it | 23:39 |
| eikon81g | http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/271613-32-ahci-transition-question << gives some more registry tweaks for win 7 you say it was a win 10 install? | 23:39 |
| EriC^^ | how did you get to the live cd earlier when it didn't find windows? | 23:39 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, that was when i booted the livecd using EUFI, and sata mode on AHCI | 23:40 |
| Guy1524 | xangua: ok ): | 23:40 |
| eikon81g | rvgate, EriC^^ >> http://www.tenforums.com/performance-maintenance/15006-attn-ssd-owners-enabling-ahci-mode-after-windows-10-installation.html | 23:41 |
| xangua | Guy1524: or even if you manage all that, the answer would probably still be no | 23:41 |
| eikon81g | that may be the way to do it.. | 23:41 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, so... before i unpause... what mode should i be in | 23:42 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: ok boot up the live usb, just so we can have a look at the disks | 23:42 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, eikon81g, just a sidenote... i appreciate the time and efford you guys put into this | 23:43 |
| eikon81g | np rvgate | 23:43 |
| eikon81g | I am still looking for an alternate solution. I think that the windows install is looking for a drive in IDE mode and to get windows to recognize a drive in AHCI mode you need to boot into safemode for windows to boot with the drive in AHCI so that the drivers and registry changes are made by windows | 23:45 |
| eikon81g | then once that is done you can set the bios setting to ahci and windows wont bsod | 23:45 |
| ikonia | what has that got to do with ubuntu ? | 23:45 |
| rvgate | ikonia, dualboot | 23:46 |
| ikonia | but what has windows requirements got to do with ubuntu | 23:46 |
| eikon81g | we bsod his windows install when trying to get ubuntu to recognize the the install that was already on the drive | 23:47 |
| eikon81g | ikonia, we will move to the side sorry | 23:47 |
| ikonia | that seems unlikley | 23:47 |
| ikonia | ubuntu will not damage your windows install | 23:47 |
| eikon81g | it will if you have to change the SATA mode for it to be recognized | 23:48 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, booted into livecd | 23:48 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 | 23:48 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, Use netcat. :P i assume it should return me a link | 23:50 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: type sudo parted -l | nc openterm.tk 9 | 23:51 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, http://openterm.tk/1dzy/ | 23:51 |
| EriC^^ | ok, windows is installed in legacy mode | 23:52 |
| EriC^^ | so you need to install ubuntu in legacy mode too | 23:52 |
| EriC^^ | type ls -l /sys/firmware/efi , does it exist? | 23:52 |
| rvgate | or reinstall windows ? | 23:52 |
| rvgate | doesnt exist | 23:53 |
| EriC^^ | ok, that means you're booted in legacy mode right now | 23:53 |
| === step21_ is now known as step21 | ||
| EriC^^ | rvgate: i think ubuntu can't see windows cause you have leftover gpt | 23:53 |
| EriC^^ | type sudo fixparts /dev/sda | 23:53 |
| rvgate | MBR command ? | 23:54 |
| EriC^^ | it didn't mention any stray gpt? | 23:54 |
| rvgate | nope, just version info, loading mbr data from /dev/sda, then asks me for MBR command | 23:55 |
| EriC^^ | ok press ctrl+c | 23:55 |
| EriC^^ | try launching the installer | 23:55 |
| EriC^^ | btw, there seems to be an ext4 and swap already on the disk | 23:56 |
| EriC^^ | is ubuntu already installed..? | 23:56 |
| rvgate | EriC^^, note that already installed ubuntu next to windows... i mentioned this earlier | 23:56 |
| EriC^^ | oh | 23:56 |
| rvgate | problem is that if i put the mode on AHCI, windows doesnt work... and if i put it on IDE, Ubuntu doesnt work | 23:57 |
| eikon81g | it's the windows setting.. | 23:57 |
| eikon81g | windows is looking for an IDE device. | 23:58 |
| eikon81g | you can transition it into AHCI by following the steps in this link | 23:58 |
| eikon81g | http://www.tenforums.com/performance-maintenance/15006-attn-ssd-owners-enabling-ahci-mode-after-windows-10-installation.html | 23:58 |
| rvgate | so either change windows to look for an ahci device, or change ubuntu to look for an ide device | 23:58 |
| rvgate | or start over completely :P reinstalling both windows and ubuntu on the correct mode | 23:59 |
| EriC^^ | rvgate: did you install ubuntu with ide mode enabled? | 23:59 |
