| BigBaby | Hello daftykins, Finally i was able to get the whole process going. | 00:12 |
| BigBaby | also anyone else who might be able to point me in the right direction. | 00:12 |
| neldogz | EriC^^, but when i boot my computer I no longer see the grub menu, actually Ubuntu was my default boot OS in Grub.. but now after replacing my motherboard it just boots straight into Windows 19 | 00:12 |
| BigBaby | here is the paste http://paste.ubuntu.com/14237156/ daftykins and EriC^^ | 00:13 |

| BigBaby | sdb is the Repair-Boot device, so just ignore it. sda is the drive which is the issue with the kernel panic | 00:14 |
| daftykins | i don't recall a boot repair being asked for on that one | 00:15 |
| neldogz | EriC^^, done | 00:15 |

| Sai | Hello, I am having a really weird issue with Ubuntu 15.04, I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts about it. I have a Dell laptop with an i5 6300 HQ processor (2.3 GHz rated, up to 3.2 turbo) which works great in Windows. But in Ubuntu, the clock steps only between 1 MHz and 759 MHz. lshw -c cpu, cpufreq-info, cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq etc. all consistently report 759 MHz as the highest. I'm really confused about why this is happening. | 00:29 |

| tacocat__ | It starts hanging almost immediately | 00:38 |
| tacocat__ | at same part all 3 times I tried | 00:38 |

| === anonymous is now known as Guest79654 | ||

| Bruha | I'm trying to install Ubuntu Server, but no one is around on that channel | 00:58 |
| Bruha | anyone here that can help? | 00:58 |
| Bruha | I login at the prompt, but then it just goes to a terminal prompt cbruhn@ubuntu: | 00:58 |
| Bruha | isn't there a graphical interface for server? | 00:58 |
| MrXXIV2 | Bruha: no Ubuntu Server has always been just a terminal, BUT you can install a GUI | 00:59 |
| MrXXIV2 | Consider Server to be the barebone version | 00:59 |
| Bruha | ah ok | 00:59 |
| Bruha | how do i do that? | 00:59 |
| Bruha | now I can install somethign like Plex over the top? | 00:59 |

| MrXXIV2 | Oh, yea, if you wanted to go that route, you might as well stick to the terminal version just to install Plex being that will handle it all for you in the long run | 01:00 |
| Bruha | ok | 01:00 |
| Bruha | can you help me with that? | 01:00 |

| rww | Crushpest: are you using Debian or Ubuntu? | 01:17 |
| Crushpest | debian | 01:18 |
| rww | then don't ask in here, thanks | 01:18 |
| rww | we handle Ubuntu users, #debian handles Debian ones | 01:18 |
| rww | (and in general, crossposting your question to multiple channels tends to be considered rude) | 01:18 |
| Crushpest | well it's the same. i used brctl from bridge-utils that is in both distris | 01:19 |
| amazoniantoad | rww: I thought ubuntu was based on debian? | 01:19 |
| rww | Doesn't matter. That's how we split the load, so ask them. | 01:19 |
| amazoniantoad | (excuse my ignorance) | 01:19 |
| rww | amazoniantoad: correct | 01:19 |
| amazoniantoad | So there are debian questions that aren't valid in ubuntu? | 01:19 |
| daftykins | amazoniantoad: doesn't mean you can channel hop for support depending on your mood | 01:19 |
| amazoniantoad | Something really niche? | 01:20 |
| amazoniantoad | I see | 01:20 |
| brug | rude | 01:20 |
| daftykins | channel name for distro name, deal with it. | 01:20 |
| rww | amazoniantoad: Debian users go to #debian, Ubuntu users go to #ubuntu. It's not a complicated system :P | 01:20 |
| amazoniantoad | I didn't mean it like that! I just didn't know debian was its own distro | 01:20 |
| rww | and Ubuntu derivative users like Mint or whatever go to their distro's support channel | 01:20 |
| rww | yep | 01:20 |
| amazoniantoad | I thought it was more like a kernel or something...like linux | 01:21 |

| tomreyn | auzty: not those of your ubuntu release | 02:59 |
| teward | auzty: http://askubuntu.com/questions/151283/why-dont-the-ubuntu-repositories-have-the-latest-versions-of-software | 02:59 |
| tomreyn | 1.4.6-1ubuntu3.3 is the latest version available for 14.04.4 (trusty) | 02:59 |
| teward | auzty: the 1.9.x upload went to the current development branc | 02:59 |
| teward | h | 03:00 |
| teward | bleh | 03:00 |
| xangua | sw0rdfish: no, you have to download separate iso, Ubuntu GNOME, Ubuntu Mate, Ubuntu, Xubuntu, etc. | 03:00 |
| auzty | ohhhh iseee, thanks teward and tomreyn :) | 03:00 |
| teward | auzty: given that I'm the one that uploaded it, I can confirm that with 100% accuracy. The 14.04 repos only have 1.4.x in them for nginx; I provide a PPA though with newer versions | 03:00 |
| tomreyn | you can probably find unsupported (by canonical and the ubuntu community) nginx backports though | 03:00 |

| teward | auzty: well, there's the main release repository (trusty), updates in -updates, and security updates in -security :p | 03:12 |
| teward | auzty: there's a reason i love that link myself, but as I said, I'm the one who did the latest upload for nginx to Ubuntu, so... i use whatever I want :) | 03:12 |
| basttrax | auzty, I think with programs like nginx people aren't really in a rush to get to the most cutting edge version | 03:15 |
| auzty | wow :) thanks again teward , maybe i still get the other OS minded that always need the most cutting edge version basttrax , haha thanks :D | 03:20 |
| teward | auzty: well, hate to put it out there, but as I did say, I provide a PPA through the nginx team on Launchpad for latest stable and mainline, but the obligatory PPA notice from earlier applies: https://launchpad.net/~nginx/+archive/ubuntu/stable for NGINX Stable; https://launchpad.net/~nginx/+archive/ubuntu/development for mainline | 03:21 |

| cfhowlett | codepython777, so many choices. choose one that works for you and go wild. | 04:13 |
| hbar98 | codephython777, I'm using an old Dell XPS m1530... but it is just running as a bridge right now. | 04:13 |
| cfhowlett | codepython777, I carry my gold colored Ubuntu USB around my neck. Just for fun, I have been known to live boot lappies for testing purposes. Much fun when done in a quiet corner of the local Apple store ... | 04:14 |
| codepython777 | I was looking at something around $1k - XPS and T550 both are more expensive if i want to get a decent i5 or i7 | 04:15 |
| codepython777 | greyscale: W550? | 04:16 |
| greyscale | T550 | 04:17 |
| greyscale | its a nice laptop. | 04:17 |
| hbar98 | greyscale, any ideas how to make it just auto connect? I don't care if it makes multiple networks, just as long as it just autoconnects. | 04:17 |
| greyscale | hbar98: sorry, I don't.. Mine -does- autoconnect, so I don't know whats different about yours | 04:17 |
| greyscale | Go edit the connection and see if there is an option for allowing autoconnection? | 04:18 |
| hbar98 | heh, mine's a motorola. they do things backwards. | 04:18 |
| hbar98 | what...the...heck. each connection has a unique MAC address, and only the current one has an eth number thing after it. How in the world?? | 04:20 |
| hbar98 | I'm the only one who plugs my phone into the machine. | 04:20 |
| tgm4883 | hbar98: it gets the MAC from the phone | 04:26 |
| hbar98 | Okay, I might have a lead on that. Bonus question: can someone point me in the right direction so I can learn how to bond connections? My wife and I both can tether/wifi tether. It would be nice to bond both connections and send that to the router. | 04:27 |
| hbar98 | tgm4883, yeah, I just stumbled on that. I'm going to see if there's a fix for the USB side. Found sever for wifi mac addresses, just not usb yet. | 04:27 |
| mikhael_k33hl | Confirmed that I'm using the right Name Server, however it appears that hostname resolution is intermittent, sometimes I can ping it via the hostname sometimes it says "unknown host", anyone experienced this? | 04:27 |
| mikhael_k33hl | Other computers doesn't seem to be experiencing the same problem, so it's not the Name Serer | 04:27 |

| snacks | or boot straight to tty in the meanwhile | 06:30 |
| snacks | actually, I finally have access to a browser right now, nvm on that last one | 06:31 |
| Poindexter_ | Snacks perhaps your screen saver is set to such a low second level that it doesn't give you much time ti make decisions. Think about that. | 06:31 |
| snacks | a low second level? | 06:31 |
| snacks | what's that? | 06:31 |
| Poindexter_ | Yes. | 06:32 |
| Poindexter_ | If you set your screen saver to such a fast timer and it shuts down, remove the screen saver and find out why it is blanking your screen. | 06:32 |
| techvish81 | is touchscreen monitor supported in regular ubuntu or a different version is available for that? | 06:33 |
| snacks | Poindexter: if that were the problem, wouldn't it cause problems once I'm logged in, too? | 06:33 |
| Poindexter_ | It could, but it also could be your login screen saver too. That is if you have one set up. Check both if you have two. | 06:34 |
| snacks | Poindexter: because I have zero problems once I log in, even if I leave it until it goes into sleep mode | 06:34 |
| Poindexter_ | Then boil it down to your login screen saver and check that. | 06:35 |

| techvish81 | is touchscreen monitor supported in regular ubuntu or a different version is available for that? | 06:36 |
| Poindexter_ | Your login screen saver may be too fast. It wont allow you to make decisions. I have seen that before. | 06:36 |
| snacks | actually, how would I check that in files? I'm booted from a live USB right now, so I can't do much except change text files. | 06:36 |
| Poindexter_ | The live USB disk you cannot change the settings because it is hard written on the disk. | 06:37 |
| techvish81 | is there a problem with suspend to ram in xubuntu? | 06:37 |
| snacks | Poindexter: I'm not talking about changing the live USB's settings, I'm talking about using the live USB to boot the thing, so I can modify the original OS's settings. | 06:37 |
| snacks | Poindexter: Because I can't actually boot my original OS, thus the problem. | 06:38 |
| Poindexter_ | Do a Google and you may find the answer. | 06:38 |
| Poindexter_ | Oh. | 06:38 |
| Poindexter_ | That is another story. | 06:38 |

| Poindexter_ | Ok latptop | 06:40 |
| Poindexter_ | Have you been in the | 06:40 |
| Poindexter_ | BIOS lately? | 06:41 |
| snacks | everything was working fine until an Ubuntu update broke it. So, it wasn't the BIOS. | 06:41 |
| snacks | also, goddamn BIOS. goddamn secure-boot, goddamn fastboot, and goddamn intel and Microsoft for coming up with UEFI. | 06:42 |
| Poindexter_ | Now you are talking. So you apt-get an update and all happened from there. | 06:42 |
| snacks | Poindexter: No, nothing bad happened until the next time I restarted the computer, which I don't do too often. | 06:43 |
| Poindexter_ | Don't apt-get anything unless you MD 5 it. | 06:43 |
| snacks | Poindexter: I tried switching to a previous kernel version, but that didn't change anything, so it's probably not the kernel. | 06:44 |
| snacks | Poindexter: How do you MD5 stuff? | 06:44 |
| Poindexter_ | My advice is this, unless you have anything valuable on the hard drive, trash it and do an DOD destruction of the data bits on your hard drive and re-install the Operating System. I do this all of the time and you and many people out ther don | 06:45 |
| snacks | Poindexter: The problem is, having a vague notion of what *caused* the problem, isn't the same as knowing what to fix to make my laptop boot properly. | 06:45 |
| Poindexter_ | t | 06:45 |
| Poindexter_ | Know that a clean hard disk is best. | 06:46 |
| marion | is there a simple way to overclock my processor in without editing the .txt file | 06:46 |
| snacks | Poindexter: I really don't want to have to reinstall. Especially if the problem is the latest version of lightdm, which updating would reinstall, thus re-causing my problem. | 06:47 |
| Poindexter_ | If you try to install a new OS on a disk that is not clean hackers use software or code to be specific to infiltrate your disk by using hidden signals to data that you did not erase. That is bad. | 06:48 |
| snacks | Poindexter: Which is irrelevant, because I doubt this was caused by any sort of malware and as I said previously, I don't want to reinstall if possible. | 06:50 |
| snacks | I'd have to reinstall everything, and re-copy everything over, which would be a huge waste of time and wouldnt necessarily solve the problem. | 06:50 |
| Poindexter_ | Snaks, don't be lazy. Reinstallation is easy maybe because I have in front of me 30 different computers. I say this easily, but take it from a pro. I don't fool around with this. Have may computers in front of you and don't rely on just one computer. Not all computers respond to each OS installed. | 06:52 |
| Poindexter_ | Snacks you also need to know how to mirror image your OS after a DOD cleansing. | 06:52 |
| Poindexter_ | Snacks, I am a DATA RECOVERY EXPERT. I have been doing this for years. There are things to know about the computer that you cannot learn from a book. | 06:54 |

| GenericNode | do you do wet work? | 06:57 |
| dekr4ken | no, corp calls, i go clean up the mess. | 06:57 |
| snacks | Poindexter: It's not about being lazy, it's about not to use an axe when you can use a scalpel. Also, I seriously suspect that reinstalling will not actually fix the problem, as if it is a broken package, then reinstalling will just replace the broken package with a broken package, fixing NOTHING. | 06:58 |
| nicomachus | snacks: what's your original issue? | 06:59 |
| Poindexter_ | Snacks, if you reason with what you just said, the "package" is corrupted. Have you tried downloading the package from another source? | 06:59 |

| snacks | nicomachus: black screen, no cursor. IIRC. | 07:03 |
| dekr4ken | i would uninstall the packages, verify authenticity of packages MD5 file from another resource, install it, and see what happens. if it still breaks the system, then there is not much you can do about it. backup and begin from scratch. simple backups of vm's before updates is basics101, if it fails, take it off and place the original back | 07:03 |

| nicomachus | snacks: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 07:05 |
| nicomachus | snacks: give that a run, and see if it resolves the issue. If not you can check /var/log/lightdm and see if it points to what's causing the crash. | 07:06 |
| Poindexter_ | Nicomachus, I suggested the same thing and once his OS is running, go to the /var/log/lightdm or any settings to reset the time delay of the screen saver in which is his problem. | 07:07 |
| nicomachus | Poindexter_: it's clearly not a screen saver issue whatsoever. and the more you talk about how you're a "pro" and continue to give bad advice, the less likely people are to pay attention to it. | 07:09 |
| Poindexter_ | Nicomachus, really? His issue was from the beginning the screen saver and not being able to log in and having a blank screen. | 07:10 |

| J-BBB | Hi all, im trying to install ubuntu 15.10 on my dell optiplex 7020 and I get an error BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffc0d38da8. Anyone a idea how i can install ubuntu? | 08:21 |
| zzarr | J-BBB, via USB? | 08:25 |
| J-BBB | zzarr: yes | 08:25 |
| zzarr | J-BBB, have you tried via another USB-stick? | 08:25 |
| J-BBB | zzarr: nope. I am trying to format and try it again. i will see | 08:26 |

| snacks | is it possible to configure systemd via files, rather than via commandline? Or alternatively, how do I configure the systemd on my hard-drive when I'm booted from a Live USB? | 08:42 |
| auronandace | snacks: not sure sorry, but if you need to configure it via commands then you'll likely need to chroot from your usb | 08:44 |
| auronandace | !chroot | snacks | 08:44 |
| ubottu | snacks: A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 08:44 |
| Trinity | i've got some API keys that i'd like to keep hidden | 08:50 |

| bekks | Trinity: Do you need them be stored in API keys? | 08:53 |
| AppAraat | hello, I'm trying to install an image of Ubuntu I've configured to a lot of laptops. The way I'd like to approach this, is to configure one laptop so that I'll get a system I'm ok with, then stick another laptop directly into the Ethernet port and mirror that install. | 08:53 |
| bekks | Trinity: If so, you cannot hide them. | 08:53 |
| bekks | AppAraat: It wont work that way. | 08:53 |
| Trinity | bekks, i'm sorry? for example if I have a database user's password i'd store them in an env variable | 08:53 |
| cfhowlett | !uck | AppAraat | 08:53 |
| ubottu | AppAraat: uck is a tool that helps you customise official Ubuntu Live CDs (including Kubuntu/Xubuntu and Edubuntu) to your needs. See http://uck.sourceforge.net/ | 08:53 |
| Trinity | rather than in the script | 08:53 |
| bekks | AppAraat: Either use UCK, or configure one laptop, and create a clone image using clonezilla, store it on a network share, and restore it on your other kaptops using clonezilla. | 08:56 |

| cfhowlett | AppAraat, never performed that comparison. sorry. but I believe clozezilla would require exact duplicates of the hardware you attempt to deploy to. | 09:19 |
| zzarr | J-BBB, :D | 09:19 |
| AppAraat | cfhowlett: hmm, I wonder what is meant by "exact duplicates"? Same HDD UUID and MAC address? Because all laptops have exact same models of hardware otherwise. | 09:20 |
| bekks | AppAraat: Latest updates are applied with sudo apt update; sudo apt full-upgrade; not using clonezilla or UCL :) | 09:20 |
| cfhowlett | AppAraat, same hardware certainly | 09:20 |
| bekks | AppAraat: "same hardware" means "HDD with the same or greater size", same GPU, etc. - "same hardware". | 09:21 |

| J-BBB | I love SSD :D | 09:21 |
| AppAraat | bekks: one can choose to do this during install stage, but if I would do that for every laptop (40+ laptops currently), then that would put a lot of strain on the local network and repo servers. | 09:21 |
| bekks | AppAraat: We have no problem running PXE and repo servers for > 1000 servers. | 09:22 |
| AppAraat | are those servers on local network though? | 09:22 |
| bekks | AppAraat: Yes. | 09:23 |
| AppAraat | we do have network, but unfortunately it's wifi only. So sending so much data through the wifi is currently kind of problematic. | 09:24 |
| zzarr | J-BBB, SSD's are great | 09:24 |
| bekks | AppAraat: You said you would mirror the laptops using the ethernet port. So you actually have a wired network. | 09:25 |
| AppAraat | well, in the sense that I can directly have a cable between one laptop and another. | 09:25 |
| J-BBB | anyone have the latest truecrypt .deb? | 09:25 |
| AppAraat | I do have a patch chord for that. | 09:25 |
| bekks | AppAraat: Which is called "a wired network". | 09:25 |
| bekks | Plug in a 8-port switch for $20, and you can stage 7 laptops at a time. E.g. | 09:26 |
| cfhowlett | J-BBB, truecrypt is abandonware. veracrypt is the currently maintained fork | 09:27 |

| cfhowlett | poops, this means you have to upgrade 4! times to get to 14.04. OR you could just torrent 14.04 and clean install ONE time. Your box, your choice. | 09:46 |
| auronandace | poops: if you already have legacy stuff on 10.10 then don't expect an upgrade to go smothly (let alone 4 consecutive upgrades). in the end it will take a lot longer sorting it out than simply installing afresh | 09:47 |
| poops | could be. i think its worth a shot | 09:47 |

| lbelo | how can i sync time between two ubuntu and debian machine?have the same tim zone and date? | 10:03 |
| jacekn | lbelo: normally it's best to just run NTP and sync both of those machines with good external time source | 10:18 |
| jacekn | lbelo: but if you really only want both to be in sync you can run NTP server yourself on one of them and sync the other one to it (but I really don't recommend doing this) | 10:18 |
| lbelo | jacekn: did i installed in both of machines NTP? | 10:19 |
| ikonia | syncing clock against each other like that will cause problems | 10:20 |
| ikonia | as drift will be synced, creating bigger drift, that will be synced back | 10:20 |
| ikonia | eventually it will go beyond the 5 minute threshold and the internal clock will take over | 10:20 |
| lbelo | ikonia:so what is the best solution? | 10:21 |
| ikonia | to use a use a set of external time services to the machines | 10:22 |
| ikonia | 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 needs to be an odd number to stop conflict/split brain | 10:22 |
| ikonia | (3 is the norm) | 10:22 |
| jacekn | lbelo: here is some info how to configure them: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/NTP.html | 10:22 |

| aotea | Why can't I boot my live USB to my UEFI system, I | 10:26 |
| gderou | Hi All | 10:26 |
| aotea | 've tried both enabled and diabled EFI mode | 10:26 |
| ikonia | lbelo: are these machines connected to the internet ? | 10:26 |
| lbelo | ikonia:yes they are connected one of machine is vertual machine which is instaalled in the same machine | 10:27 |
| gderou | I am wondering if it is possible to install (like proper install, not simply Live USB) Ubuntu on a USB stick and be able to boot it on any computer (at least PC and Mac) | 10:28 |
| ikonia | lbelo: just configure the ntp client to point at the public pool of ntp servers on ntp.org | 10:28 |
| ikonia | gderou: yes and no | 10:28 |
| ikonia | gderou: you'd find it better to use livemedia though | 10:28 |
| gderou | ikonia: thanks. Why is it so ? | 10:29 |
| ikonia | gderou: because different machines have different hardware, not all of it of it is on the fly changes, live media attempts to configure fail safe settings on boot, a static install will have limitations around that, | 10:30 |
| lbelo | ikonia:you mean i can installed on both machine and change the ntp.org acording to my country code https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-time-synchronization-on-ubuntu-12-04 | 10:30 |
| ikonia | lbelo: that will work | 10:31 |
| gderou | ikonia: that makes sense - is there anything lost from a user's perspective when using livemedia (assuming I am using persistence like described in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD/Persistence) ? | 10:34 |
| ikonia | gderou: some functions will be a little slower, remember your whole OS is running from ram, but nothing is "lost" | 10:34 |
| ikonia | gderou: is there a reason you need this approach rather than just installing and using ubuntu on a machine ? | 10:34 |
| lbelo | ikonia:i did it but when i see by date command they are not the same even the timezone | 10:36 |
| gderou | ikonia: yes, I would like a secure (everything on a truecrypt volume is enough) environment that I could use from anywhere (not necessarily my own computer). | 10:37 |
| ikonia | lbelo: ntp doesn't set the time zone | 10:37 |
| ikonia | it just syncs the clock | 10:37 |
| gderou | ikonia: most of the time I would be using my computer, but I want to be able to use any | 10:38 |
| ikonia | gderou: I think the idea is bad, but if it's what you want, go for it | 10:38 |
| gderou | ikonia: why is it bad ? | 10:39 |
| ikonia | I think the idea is poor and a waste of time, but it's your time to use | 10:39 |
| aotea | I formatted a USB using KDE partition manager, to ext4, installed a Kubuntu 15.10 64bit on it using Startup Disk Creator.

| lin_lin13 | hello ,everyone ! | 10:42 |
| gderou | ikonia: sorry to insist, but what do you think is poor ? Alternatively, are there any options to make a development system leave no trace, and not be attached to a physical machine (I don't want my "less secure" OS installs be able to access in any way the data so putting everything in a VM is not a solution either). | 10:47 |
| alexla | star wars | 10:47 |
| ikonia | gderou: just do what you want | 10:47 |
| ikonia | alexla: ? | 10:47 |
| gderou | ikonia: ok - sorry to have bothered you - thanks for your help | 10:48 |
| ikonia | gderou: no problem, just because I don't like it, doesn't mean it's not right for you | 10:48 |
| gderou | ikonia: I like the iea of having a fully portable OS install not tied to any hardware configuration, but I also fully understand the technical limitations (mostly performance related) that it implies - but this won't hurt me considering what I want to do. | 10:51 |
| gderou | ikonia: this would be linited to a single security sensitive project - not as a main all purpose commputer | 10:52 |
| gderou | ikonia: but again if you are aware of alternativess options do do the same thing, please let me know | 10:53 |
| ikonia | gderou: I think the whole concept is a terrible idea, so there are not alternatives, if it works for you, thats great | 10:53 |

| ElvanorMoscow | and how do you see the kernel command line? | 11:40 |
| ElvanorMoscow | Is it by typing "e" at prompt? | 11:40 |
| mcphail | ElvanorMoscow: this is from a live USB or an install? | 11:40 |
| ElvanorMoscow | mcphail: live USB (I think) | 11:40 |
| Guest39258 | ho una macchina virtuale non riesco a mettere la risoluzione giusta ho solo 1024x 768 oppure altre due più piccole | 11:41 |

| BlackFate | !it | Guest39258 | 11:41 |
| mcphail | ElvanorMoscow: I think there is an "F" key you can press when booting to edit kernel parameters, but don't have a live USB with me just now to check | 11:41 |

| ElvanorMoscow | mcphail: and once booted, can you see what was the kernel command line? | 11:41 |
| ElvanorMoscow | This would also be useful | 11:42 |
| Guest39258 | ti ringrazio tanto | 11:42 |
| mcphail | ElvanorMoscow: yes. I'm not at a linux machine just now, but I think "cat /proc/cmdline" does the trick | 11:43 |

| tzanolo | anyone | 14:19 |
| Zeaal | i have 2 drives on my system.. C & D and I use windows | 14:19 |
| Zeaal | so i installed Ubuntu on drive E (created a parition in it) | 14:19 |
| Zeaal | now the problem is the i cant boot into ubuntu nor can i reset the stuff | 14:20 |
| Zeaal | can anyone tell me a solution for this? | 14:20 |
| tzanolo | Zeaal, can you boot in windows? | 14:20 |
| Zeaal | yes by default i boot in windows.. | 14:20 |
| Zeaal | I dont get an opt to boot in ubuntu | 14:20 |
| tzanolo | ok, there are a lot of things that may be wrong | 14:21 |
| Zeaal | is there a way i could fix this? or well undo all the changes and start over again? | 14:21 |
| Zeaal | i need to recover that dedicated space and allocate it back to E: | 14:22 |
| tzanolo | for me, its difficult to understand the new way the boot at motherboard works, UEFI. | 14:22 |
| Zeaal | ... | 14:22 |
| tzanolo | Zeaal, you just want to recover the space and keep just windows?] | 14:23 |
| Zeaal | yes | 14:23 |
| Zeaal | i mean I'd start over again then .. this time carefully | 14:23 |
| Zeaal | hi sorry .. got disconnected | 14:32 |
| Zeaal | lemme explain my problem again.. | 14:33 |
| tzanolo | ok. | 14:33 |
| Zeaal | I stupidly installed Ubuntu on Drive E: (I had windows alrdy on C:) | 14:33 |
| Zeaal | so I partitioned E 50 GB and installed Ubuntu 14 on that | 14:33 |
| Zeaal | now I cant find that partition anywhere in windows partition manager thingie nor do i get an opt to boot into ubuntu on start up | 14:34 |
| Zeaal | I need to know if there's a way to fix this? | 14:34 |
| tzanolo | soee, the easy way Zeaal to recover the space | 14:34 |
| tzanolo | is trough the windows itselv | 14:34 |
| tzanolo | itselv | 14:34 |
| tzanolo | itself | 14:34 |

| tzanolo | Disk managment | 14:36 |
| Zeaal | That partition's a part of Data E cfhowlett.. probably should allocate it back and re-install ubuntu in C's partition | 14:37 |
| tzanolo | you must find disk managment, Zeaal, then you can resize, format | 14:37 |
| Zeaal | im there | 14:37 |
| Zeaal | wait i dont know what to do there lol | 14:37 |
| Zeaal | which one is ubuntu's? | 14:37 |
| tzanolo | at disk managment you can delete the partition and it will become FREE SPACE | 14:37 |
| cfhowlett | Zeaal, ubuntu is formatted as ext4 | 14:37 |
| Zeaal | I have two partitions.. OEM partition and Primary Partition | 14:38 |
| Zeaal | they dont have any names | 14:38 |
| Zeaal | I think it's the primary one i gotta delete? | 14:38 |
| mcphail | tzanolo: I presume the problem is your locale uses a decimal comma rather than a decimal point, which is why you get a comma rather than a dot? | 14:38 |
| tzanolo | then you boot ubuntu 15 pendrive, choose TRY, and when you get in unity, there will be a icon on desktop INSTALL UBUNTU. | 14:38 |

| Zeaal | ok so i deleted the Primary Partition | 14:46 |
| Zeaal | now how do I allocate the space of it to E: ? | 14:46 |
| Zeaal | D* | 14:47 |
| tzanolo | oem partition is a place that the computer manufactures keep the iso of windowns. when you recover from factory, the new fresh instalation is in this space. | 14:47 |

| aotea | lotuspsychje, yes, tried first with bumblebee, purged that and installed prime instead. also installing 352 seem to include nvidia-prime, but yes I've tried prime, and looked around the nvidia-settings. | 15:53 |
| Guest3615 | danke | 15:53 |
| Guest3615 | stimmt.... | 15:53 |
| lotuspsychje | aotea: hmmm maybe its a bad leftover from bumblebee? did you try nvidia-prime on a clean install? | 15:53 |
| amr | hey, i've got a version of libvpx1 installed from when i did installed some intel drivers, but i want to install wine which wants livpx1:i386... any ideas if i can have two versions coexist? | 15:54 |
| Guest3615 | join ubuntu-de | 15:54 |
| Guest3615 | join #ubuntu-de | 15:54 |
| lotuspsychje | amr: ubuntu version plz? | 15:54 |

| lotuspsychje | Guest3615: /join... | 15:55 |
| lotuspsychje | !info libvpx1 trusty | 15:55 |
| ubottu | libvpx1 (source: libvpx): VP8 video codec (shared library). In component main, is optional. Version 1.3.0-2 (trusty), package size 505 kB, installed size 1651 kB | 15:55 |
| lotuspsychje | amr: this would be the version reccomended | 15:55 |
| aotea | lotuspsychje, well, no I didn't try that. Guess there is nothing left but doing that and or the LTS... | 15:56 |
| amr | im not sure what youre saying... i should figure out how to install 1.3.0-2 outside of apt-get ? | 15:56 |
| amr | and then wine will use that..? | 15:56 |
| === terminus is now known as Guest67080 | ||
| lotuspsychje | aotea: yeah i would really reccomend clean install LTS or 15.10 + nvidia-340 + nvidia-prime + performance mode enabled | 15:57 |
| sw0rdfish | lotuspsychje yeah ok, can't find the old laptop RAM I had lying around somewhere... so i think i will go for lubuntu with the 1GB old laptop that I have :D | 15:57 |
| sw0rdfish | should i get 14.04 or ? | 15:57 |
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: that will do smooth mate | 15:57 |
| sw0rdfish | 15.10? | 15:57 |
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: LTS is very reccomended in most cases, but thats up to you | 15:57 |
| sw0rdfish | yep | 15:58 |
| mcphail | amr: if you are using software from the default repos, the dependencies should be handled automatically (if not, it is a bug and should be reported). If you are using software from PPAs or other sources, you are on your own, I'm afraid. Generally, :i386 and :amd64 versions can coexist happily | 15:58 |
| sw0rdfish | lotuspsychje I'll got 14.04 and then when I upgrade to the next LTS does it upgrade from 14.04 to 15.10 and then to the new LTS or? | 15:58 |
| amr | sorta kinda not what i asked. i have the libvpx1 from when i compiled a version manually or intel video drivers | 15:58 |
| amr | im aware i could remove that or overwrite it with the one from the repo | 15:58 |
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: 15.10 is not lts | 15:58 |
| === Guest3615 is now known as sid | ||
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: if you choose 14.04 you will be able to upgrade to 16.04 in april | 15:59 |

| mcphail | amr: If you've compiled and installed your own version of a package, it is up to you to manage that. The package manager may well overwrite your files or break in some other way | 15:59 |
| === [UPA]Stefan is now known as Tronsha | ||
| lotuspsychje | mcphail: +1 | 16:00 |
| sw0rdfish | lotuspsychje nice | 16:00 |
| amr | thanks i sorta knew that. i was looking for some "oh yeah you totally might need 2 versions of <x> thing, heres how you do it:" | 16:00 |
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: in some cases xubuntu performs very well on older laptops too, maybe try both? | 16:00 |
| mcphail | amr: If you can, make sure you set the prefix for self-compiled libs to "/usr/local". The package manager will not touch anything there. Of course, your compiled libs make break existing packages | 16:01 |
| lotuspsychje | amr: mixing package versions is mostly not a good idea | 16:01 |
| amr | ah, awesome | 16:01 |
| amr | thats def useful, thanks mcphail | 16:01 |
| amr | lotuspsychje: yea i knew that too :) | 16:01 |
| amr | needs must | 16:01 |
| sw0rdfish | I suppose this is the latest LTS version / the file that I'm looking for "lubuntu-14.04.3-desktop-i386.iso" | 16:02 |
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: correct | 16:02 |
| sw0rdfish | lotuspsychje well which one is prettier xubuntu or lubuntu :D | 16:02 |
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: if your old laptop is 32bit | 16:02 |
| sw0rdfish | yes its 32bit buddy :) | 16:02 |
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: thats also a choosable flavor | 16:02 |
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: they both have another feeling | 16:03 |
| mcphail | amr: if you need a special lib for an individual app, considet sticking the lib somewhere outside the usual path and call the particular app with "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/your/special/lib/directory ./appname" | 16:03 |
| sw0rdfish | lotuspsychje so, both have a different feeling ? | 16:03 |
| mcphail | amr: an alternative is the "LD_PRELOAD" variable which allows you to override specific libs | 16:03 |
| amr | youre a star | 16:03 |
| amr | literally exactly what i was hoping existed | 16:04 |
| amr | thanks | 16:04 |
| lotuspsychje | sw0rdfish: yes, check screenshots on the official site | 16:04 |
| mcphail | amr: np. Good luck | 16:04 |
| DoXiD | Any ideas why $1 is empty: echo "wham" | awk "{gsub(\"%passwd%\", \"$1\")}1" testfile.txt | 16:04 |

| lotuspsychje | DoXiD: maybe the ##programming guys can get you out of this? | 16:05 |
| DoXiD | lotuspsychje: I'll give it a go, cheers | 16:05 |

| YamakasY | mhh okay but what is the way now to reboot a machine in 15.x ? | 16:38 |
| YamakasY | and shutdown ? | 16:38 |
| YamakasY | can't find it | 16:38 |
| ikonia | still thre | 16:39 |
| ikonia | there | 16:39 |
| YamakasY | not in sbin | 16:39 |
| YamakasY | ikonia: can you be more precise ? | 16:41 |
| ikonia | it's on my 15.10 install, but I'm not on it, so I can't confirm the path for you | 16:42 |
| YamakasY | ok, this is an upgrade | 16:42 |
| YamakasY | I see it there tho /usr/lib/klibc/bin/reboot | 16:42 |
| YamakasY | which seem to work | 16:42 |
| GFXDude | ikonia, can the answer file be used in conjunction with the -y parameter? As in, the sudoer prompt is the only one that isn't answered properly via the -y. If I feed in a < answers.txt file, with a single line that reads "N" (no quotes), will it default to using the -y answer, and then if that doesn't work, look to the input file for the proper answer? | 16:44 |
| GFXDude | Or will I need to not use the -y parameter, and just provide an answer to all prompts in the answers.txt | 16:44 |
| ikonia | GFXDude: don't know, I'd have to check, I don't have an example to hand | 16:45 |
| GFXDude | Ok, I'll try it both ways. | 16:45 |
| jrcharney | hi everyone. trying to get a nextwindow touchscreen working using nwfermi/evdev drivers. seems to be working somewhat OK but when i click somewhere, the pc acts as if i've dragged my finger between the previous location and the current location. calibration is accurate but i cant stop this "dragging" - any ideas? | 16:50 |
| jrcharney | i also compiled and installed a nextwindow Xorg driver...but X insists on using evdev driver.. is there a way to force it to use the driver i just compiled? tried making a config file in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d but no avail. | 16:52 |

| seeeb | hi guys, after an update that screwed up my virtualized machines, I need to downgrade my qemu packages. Currently for example I have qemu-kvm_1.0+noroms-0ubuntu14.26_amd64.deb and I'd like to downgrade to qemu-kvm_1.0+noroms-0ubuntu14.23_amd64.deb where do I find it? | 17:19 |
| Guest16044 | buongiorno | 17:20 |
| compdoc | seeeb, I use qemu. What happened? | 17:20 |
| seeeb | in dec 21 my ubuntu host upgraded several libs, all was fine guests were up. Today I've restarted the host and none of the guests were up | 17:21 |
| compdoc | can you start them manually? | 17:22 |
| seeeb | they are not even listed | 17:22 |
| seeeb | kvm-ok says : INFO: /dev/kvm exists | 17:22 |
| compdoc | seeeb, you use virt-manager | 17:22 |
| seeeb | yeah virt-manager is there but empty | 17:23 |
| seeeb | the log /var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log says at the end: qemuCapsExtractVersion:1408 : internal error Cannot find suitable emulator for x86_64 | 17:24 |
| compdoc | seeeb, you may have to reconnect virt-manager. Ive installed all the updates, but havent seen the problem. But Im on 14.04 | 17:24 |
| seeeb | ah you are in 14 ... | 17:24 |
| seeeb | my host is not in 14 | 17:24 |
| seeeb | maybe that hurts | 17:25 |
| seeeb | so I either try to downgrade qemu or upgrade the host | 17:25 |
| seeeb | the host is in ubuntu 12.04 | 17:29 |
| seeeb | compdoc: by chance do you have any host that is with ubuntu 12.04running well with updated qemu? | 17:30 |
| === owl0 is now known as ___owl0 | ||
| compdoc | not anymore. I always upgrade all the servers when a new LTS comes out | 17:31 |
| seeeb | right | 17:31 |
| seeeb | sounds like it's time for me to go 14 | 17:31 |
| compdoc | the new LTS will be out before long, isnt it? | 17:32 |
| seeeb | yeah | 17:32 |
| compdoc | you might be able to fix the problem. there must be a log somewhere showing why qemu-kvm isnt starting | 17:33 |
| seeeb | thre is, libvirt's log says: qemuCapsExtractVersion:1408 : internal error Cannot find suitable emulator for x86_64 | 17:34 |
| seeeb | but I've checked and the mods are loaded and the BIOS option was fine | 17:34 |
| seeeb | that's why all indicates it's this last qemu upgrade that screwed up in 12.04 | 17:34 |
| seeeb | I'm going to try to upgrade to 14 | 17:35 |

| gee111 | can ubuntu use vram as virtual memory? all brands are selling low end laptops with those shitty low end gpus. I was thinking if those 2gb ddr3 could help virtual memory or is it just a nice number to advertise? | 17:42 |
| spicyramen | http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libgrpc-dev | 17:43 |
| Pici | spicyramen: 1) never mix debian and Ubuntu repositories. 2) This package is only available in 15.10 or higher. 3) You may be able to find a PPA out there that has it, but you're on your own for support of that. | 17:43 |

| studdentt | ikonia: but when you install a software through sudo, doesnt it installs for every user on the system ? | 18:06 |
| ikonia | studdentt: yes, it installs for everyone | 18:06 |
| ikonia | you have to use sudo to install software packages | 18:06 |
| studdentt | ikonia: when i log in with root i can run the program | 18:06 |
| Spec | that sorta depends on the software, eh. | 18:06 |
| ikonia | studdentt: you can't login as root - the root account is locked | 18:07 |

| gabi__ | hi, i have a question not really related to ubuntu. but maybe someone can help me. i have a mp3 in an adts container and my car refuses to play that. | 19:03 |
| gabi__ | can someone tell me how to remove the adts container and get a regular audio mp3? | 19:03 |
| nicomachus | gabi__: you're right, that doesn't sound ubuntu-related at all. | 19:03 |
| rodney77 | slidinghorn, any ideas? | 19:03 |
| gabi__ | but which channel can i join for such question? | 19:03 |
| gabi__ | neither lame, nor sox did work, all create an audio mp3 with adts container | 19:04 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: did your wifi perform well before on ubuntu? when did this start hapenneing? | 19:04 |
| gagalicious | possible to pxe boot windows 7 with ubuntu? | 19:05 |
| rodney77 | lotuspsychje, i have been on ubuntu for years and my wi-fi worked fine up until a few weeks ago | 19:06 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: after an update? | 19:06 |
| rodney77 | lotuspsychje, this is hard to say, as ubuntu has frequent updates. but I didn't update the firmware, and my wired devices seem to be fine | 19:07 |
| rodney77 | (firmware on the router i mean) | 19:07 |
| rodney77 | is there a way to detect if packets are getting dropped before they reach the router? | 19:07 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: can you try loading a previous kernel, to make sure its not a kernel issue | 19:07 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: for router issues i would avise you to ask in ##networking | 19:08 |
| rodney77 | ok lotuspsychje, i will see when the last kernel was updated and see if I can roll back. i recently purged old kernels so i don't know if i can roll back | 19:08 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: but if an update got recent intel wifi driver, could also mes sup things perhaps | 19:08 |
| rodney77 | i guess this isn't really an ubuntu issue so i will take your advice and go to ##networking | 19:08 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: we dont know that yet | 19:09 |
| rodney77 | ok, lotuspsychje, where can i find a recent update log? | 19:09 |
| exobyte | What's the right way to get a newer version of a package that what's in a distro. The version of syslog-ng in trusty seems to have a memory leak that was fixed in 3.5.6-2, but trusty uses 3.5.3-1. | 19:09 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: try also a tail -f /var/log/syslog and disable wifi/re-enable to see errors | 19:09 |
| rodney77 | i think if it's through update manager, it won't be in my synaptic history | 19:09 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: dpkg log can be usefull | 19:10 |
| lotuspsychje | !latest | exobyte | 19:10 |
| ubottu | exobyte: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 19:10 |
| rodney77 | dpkg log. got it | 19:10 |
| lotuspsychje | exobyte: its reccomended to stay with package versions for your ubuntu version | 19:10 |
| rodney77 | ok lotuspsychje, here's the tail of my syslog: | 19:10 |
| rodney77 | (it's just two lines so i'm not going to pastebin) | 19:11 |
| rodney77 | Dec 28 12:42:25 laptop wpa_supplicant[1006]: wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-STARTED | 19:11 |
| rodney77 | Dec 28 12:42:26 laptop wpa_supplicant[1006]: nl80211: send_and_recv->nl_recvmsgs failed: -33 | 19:11 |
| rodney77 | these lines are showing over and over, every few minutes | 19:11 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: hmm spam lines are never good | 19:11 |
| rodney77 | ok, so I should always use pastebin if it's more than one line? | 19:12 |
| rodney77 | i will do that next time, sorry | 19:12 |
| exobyte | lotuspsychje: syslog-ng is using 63% of my mem, and stopping event production doesn't drop the usage. I get why it's recommened, but this sort of memory leak is a serious problem. | 19:12 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: no, thats not what i meant :p i mean every 2min spam in your syslog doesnt sound good | 19:12 |
| exobyte | not sure if that fix is for *my* leak, though | 19:12 |

| rodney77 | i should mention, lotuspsychje, that my router has been up for a few days and rx errors are only 42 --- but tx errors are 10,000 | 19:17 |
| rodney77 | i don't know if that is useful info | 19:17 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: do you have other devices to test on the same router? | 19:18 |
| rodney77 | lotuspsychje, i should also point out that I couldn't connect to wi-fi at all, for a couple days, when encryption was on. so i turned if off and got a semi-decent connection. then i did a factory reset and could put the encryption back on and use it | 19:18 |
| lotuspsychje | rodney77: but your syslog spamming those lines cant be right.. | 19:18 |
| rodney77 | lotuspsychje, i don't have any other wi-fi devices to test right now, but i do have a little USB wireless card | 19:19 |
| rodney77 | so i can try that for a while | 19:19 |

| RPG-Master | A few days ago I hard reset my computer while the disk was spinning, and I messed up grub. I think I fixed grub, but now my computer won't get past the initial startup stuff (systemd stuff?). | 19:29 |

| aotea | lotuspsychje, seems like the reinstall did the trick. And that Bumblebee did something nasty before I told it to move on. Nvidia 340 with uptime now of almost 2 hours. Thanks. | 19:35 |
| lotuspsychje | aotea: you mean with nvidia-prime? | 19:36 |
| lotuspsychje | aotea: yeah bumblebee can do nasty things with xorg i think, system might have been borked | 19:37 |
| aotea | lotuspsychje, yes, it was included with the install from Driver Manager that followed Kubuntu. my dpkg --list | grep nvidia* at least shows nvidia-prime installed | 19:37 |
| lotuspsychje | aotea: ok you got it working on wily now right? | 19:37 |
| aotea | lotuspsychje, yes, no crash yet to speak of at least! But is there another way of 'repairing' xorg in a case like that? or is reinstall always the solution? | 19:42 |
| === dionysus70 is now known as dionysus69 | ||
| lotuspsychje | aotea: well the thing is, xorg shouldnt be edited nowadays, so with bumblebee that got wrong... | 19:43 |
| lotuspsychje | aotea: a last feedback question, where did you read about bumblebee? why did you think you needed it? | 19:44 |
| aotea | lotuspsychje, installed wine, and read that for making best use of nvidia gpu I were to install bumblebee, but guess that information was outdated | 19:47 |
| lotuspsychje | !yay | aotea ok tnx for feedback! | 19:48 |
| ubottu | aotea ok tnx for feedback!: Glad you made it! :-) | 19:48 |
| rom1504 | probably because bumblebee (try to) do it right, just like nouveau : by running only some app with the resource expensive card | 19:48 |
| rom1504 | and unlike nvidia-prime | 19:48 |
| rom1504 | but then it's all broken because of nvidia drivers, so just use what works | 19:48 |
| lotuspsychje | rom1504: it works now on his fresh install, 340 + nvidia-prime | 19:49 |
| rom1504 | yeah that's something. It means he'll probably end up using more resources than needed though | 19:50 |
| rom1504 | which is probably ok I guess | 19:50 |
| aotea | rom1504, beats having xorg crashes every now and then ;) | 19:51 |

| lotuspsychje | JinBaba: man zip | 20:22 |

| lotuspsychje | JinBaba: it explains finely in the manpage | 20:23 |
| nicomachus | -r means that it is recursive to a path. -R means that it is recursive to a pattern, using regex. | 20:23 |
| JinBaba | is this an example of regex? 'zip -R mycode.zip "*.c"' | 20:24 |
| nicomachus | yes. | 20:25 |

| bumbar | can i upgrade 14.04 directly to 15.04? | 22:09 |
| zykotick9 | bumbar: you can't. | 22:10 |
| zykotick9 | bumbar: 14.04 -> 14.10 -> 15.04. or clean install. | 22:10 |
| bumbar | can i do it without update-manager package? seems to drag lots of UI stuff with it, and i'm running a server | 22:11 |
| rww | you need update-manager-core, not update-manager | 22:11 |
| rww | install that, then see do-release-upgrade | 22:11 |
| rww | !ltsupgrade | 22:11 |
| rww | hrm where did that go | 22:11 |
| livcd | compdoc: this is virtual machine | 22:12 |
| rww | !upgradeofflts | 22:12 |
| ubottu | To upgrade from an LTS release of Ubuntu to the next (non-LTS) release, run sudoedit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and change the prompt= line to "prompt=normal". Then, do sudo do-release-upgrade to begin the upgrade. | 22:12 |

| NathanielHill | So, I recently setup my dotfiles in a github repo and am managing them with dotbot. I'm looking to do something similar with the config of my Ubuntu development laptop and desktop | 22:18 |
| NathanielHill | However, it seems like most of the configuration is not in flat text files or even xml/yaml | 22:18 |
| ontherocks | hello | 22:19 |
| NathanielHill | this is for desktop config and apps (like launcher/gnome-terminal) | 22:19 |
| ontherocks | groups in linux have home folders? or just users? | 22:19 |
| rww | just users | 22:19 |
| NathanielHill | Am I going to have to dive into the nasty details of gconf/dconf setup, or is their a tool for maintaining desktop config across machines? | 22:20 |
| Xano | Which bash initialization file is used when opening a new terminal using ctrl+alt+t? It doesn't seem to be .bashrc or .bash_profile. | 22:20 |
| NathanielHill | Anyone have experience with this, or does everyone just spend a couple hours configuring their desktop each new machine?? | 22:20 |
| EriC^^ | Xano: it is ~/.bashrc | 22:22 |

| ubuntu-mate | Austira ? | 22:26 |
| ubuntu-mate | Austria* | 22:26 |
| johannes_ | yes | 22:26 |
| ubuntu-mate | Teste das gerade über die Live CD | 22:26 |
| ubuntu-mate | was genau ist das hier ? | 22:26 |
| johannes_ | cool welche distro? | 22:26 |
| ubuntu-mate | wie n IRC channel ? | 22:27 |
| ubuntu-mate | Ubuntu mate | 22:27 |
| johannes_ | ja so in der Art | 22:27 |
| johannes_ | ok | 22:27 |
| rww | !de | 22:27 |
| ubottu | In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! | 22:27 |
| ubuntu-mate | Ubuntu selbst gefällt mir nicht mehr wegen der ob erfläche Lubuntu war mit nicht so gut angepasst | 22:27 |
| YamakasY | !nl | 22:27 |
| ubottu | Nederlandstalige ondersteuning voor Ubuntu (en vers gezette koffie) is te vinden in #ubuntu-nl | 22:27 |
| ubuntu-mate | aber mate scheint toll zu sein | 22:27 |
| johannes_ | probier xubuntu | 22:27 |
| ubuntu-mate | auch Gnome oberfläche ? | 22:27 |
| johannes_ | die xfce-Desktop ist sehr anpassbar | 22:28 |
| k1l_ | ubuntu-mate: hier ist nur englisch. #ubuntu-de für deutsch | 22:28 |
| k1l_ | johannes_: gleiches für dich | 22:28 |
| johannes_ | Desktopumbegung* | 22:28 |
| ubuntu-mate | ok sry np so we switch to English | 22:28 |
| ubuntu-mate | k so i try xubuntu to have that on CD to | 22:28 |
| johannes_ | yes im using xubuntu now | 22:29 |
| johannes_ | do you have a 8GB usb stick | 22:29 |
| johannes_ | ? | 22:29 |
| ubuntu-mate | yes | 22:29 |
| ubuntu-mate | and 32gb | 22:29 |
| johannes_ | then you can make a bootable stick | 22:29 |
| johannes_ | instead of a dvd | 22:29 |
| ubuntu-mate | faster right ? | 22:29 |
| k1l_ | but still not as fast as a real install | 22:30 |
| johannes_ | yes its really simple you can even do it in terminal | 22:30 |
| Xano | EriC^^, Turns out it was. Something went wrong with saving my changes. Stupid. Thanks! | 22:30 |
| ubuntu-mate | i also wand Tails 1.6 on a stick but don't work on my Laptop | 22:30 |
| k1l_ | ubuntu-mate: for tails OS ask the tails guys | 22:30 |
| dsc_ | k1l_: is this usb stick of yours formatted to fat32? | 22:31 |
| dsc_ | use unetbootin to put a iso on there | 22:31 |
| johannes_ | it doesnt matter | 22:31 |
| dsc_ | it doesnt? | 22:31 |
| ubuntu-mate | jup fat32 | 22:31 |
| k1l_ | partition doesnt matter since the installer will wipe that usb drive anyway | 22:32 |
| johannes_ | nope after you "make" an the usb bootable with the image it doesnt matter | 22:32 |
| johannes_ | exactly | 22:32 |
| ubuntu-mate | can i also update the dis on a live usb ? | 22:32 |
| k1l_ | no | 22:33 |
| Xano | EriC^^, Ah, I was in an interactive sudo session in that terminal :/ | 22:33 |
| johannes_ | you can write it in terminal with : dd if="locationtoiso" of=/dev/sdb1 | 22:34 |
| k1l_ | johannes_: wrong | 22:34 |
| k1l_ | dont dd the iso to the partition | 22:34 |
| johannes_ | if= input file of=output file its where your usb is | 22:34 |
| johannes_ | but it worked for me | 22:34 |
| johannes_ | ^^ | 22:34 |
| zykotick9 | dsc_: <sidenote> unetbootin is a BAD suggest 9 times out of 10, for hybrid iso files (ubuntu/debian install/livecd images)... just sayin' | 22:34 |
| k1l_ | i bet you used sdb instead of sdb1 | 22:35 |
| dsc_ | zykotick9: no idea what the discussion is about tbh, i saw 'create live usb' and i said unetbootin. worked for me so far | 22:35 |
| johannes_ | when run df, my usb is mounted in /dev/sdb1 | 22:35 |
| zykotick9 | dsc_: ya, i'd stay away from suggesting that to people... it "can" work, but it also leads to tears ;) | 22:36 |
| johannes_ | yes unetbootin only works with ubunut-like-distros not for manjaro for example | 22:36 |
| compdoc | unetbootin terrible | 22:36 |
| k1l_ | johannes_: no | 22:36 |
| johannes_ | k1l: why? | 22:36 |
| k1l_ | johannes_: your partition on the usb is mounted on sdb1 | 22:36 |
| k1l_ | dont mix partitions and drives. | 22:36 |
| johannes_ | yes | 22:36 |
| johannes_ | but it worked | 22:36 |
| rww | in my experience, unetbootin doesn't work with *anything* | 22:36 |
| zykotick9 | rww: +1 | 22:36 |
| dsc_ | well, we are in #ubuntu after all. | 22:36 |
| rww | i use rufus in windows and dd in linux/osx | 22:37 |
| ubuntu-mate | dd ? | 22:37 |
| k1l_ | johannes_: the iso already got a partition inside itself. so it will dd the partition onto the usb. but if you dd into the partition it doesnt work | 22:37 |
| johannes_ | rww: how do you run dd? | 22:37 |
| ilhami | unetbootin is crap :D | 22:37 |
| rww | never had a problem with either (assuming isohybrid, which most things are these days) | 22:37 |
| ilhami | use dd | 22:37 |
| k1l_ | johannes_: so dont suggest wrong commands, please. | 22:37 |
| rww | johannes_: sudo dd if=whatever.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1M, where X is replaced with the relevant device letter | 22:38 |
| * zykotick9 would suggest cp over dd, less typing/easier but dd works | 22:38 | |
| johannes_ | k1l: ok then its sdb instead of sdb1 | 22:38 |
| elosz | hello.I am not sure if this is the right channel for my query. But I've a pdf document which was generated from text with Roboto font but I get error while printing it.Any solution? | 22:38 |
| gderoujoux | Hi All | 22:38 |
| ubuntu-mate | hi | 22:38 |
| johannes_ | do you installed drivers for your printer? | 22:38 |
| sdlinux | yo | 22:38 |
| elosz | johannes_: it is university printer | 22:39 |
| elosz | johannes_: i don't have admin rights to it | 22:39 |
| ubuntu-mate | ok i try to makle my life usb stick so thx and till later guys | 22:39 |
| gderoujoux | Is is possible to boot a live CD from a Mac and a PC ? | 22:39 |
| zykotick9 | rww: your dd command vs. "sudo cp whatever.iso /dev/sdX" | 22:39 |
| johannes_ | see ya | 22:39 |
| rww | zykotick9: is cp buffered? | 22:39 |
| gderoujoux | sorry live USB | 22:39 |
| johannes_ | dont use cp | 22:39 |
| dsc_ | afaik cp does something completely different xD | 22:40 |
| zykotick9 | rww: cp can be FAST than dd in some cases! but to your "is cp buffered", i don't know. | 22:40 |
| zykotick9 | s/FAST/FASTER/ | 22:40 |
| rww | also, if i were gonna do it without dd I'd do cat whatever.iso > /dev/sdX | 22:40 |
| rww | dd speed depends on how you tell it to buffer. hence the bs= argument above | 22:40 |
| zykotick9 | rww: to aware cat isn't a good suggestion in ubuntu - sudo problem | 22:40 |
| rww | true | 22:40 |
| zykotick9 | rww: i'd use cat in debian ;) | 22:40 |
| === sat-buddhi is now known as NetiNeti | ||

| ontherocks | i created group webusers.... i can add group webusers to group ftp? | 22:42 |
| HackerII | sdlinux: gkrellm | 22:43 |
| ontherocks | or i need to add the user of that group? | 22:43 |

| HackerII | skylake: home/gkrellm | 22:55 |
| zykotick9 | HackerII: <sidenote> want to express home in a neat way, that actually works in bash? use ~/gkrellm <- but isn't it .gkrellm | 22:56 |
| HackerII | ya | 22:57 |
| HackerII | im lazy anymore | 22:57 |
| skylake | There is no gkrellm in my home folder unfortunately | 22:58 |
| HackerII | its a hidden file | 22:58 |
| zykotick9 | skylake: is there a .gkrellm | 22:58 |
| skylake | aha thanks, found it.\ | 22:58 |
| * zykotick9 just wanted to note, that gnome sets it's wallpaper in a way that the transparent theme for gkrellm didn't work with - last time i tried. | 23:00 | |
