[00:05] <bob2017> heyy
[00:05] <bob2017> tj- still here?
[00:09] <doebi> on my debian used to symlink project dirs into /var/www/$project, but on ubunut this doesn't work. i get a 403 Forbidden
[00:10] <SchrodingersScat> bekks: ssh connection dropping repeatedly for one.  That's actually the only time I notice it, because I have to reattach my screen.
[00:11] <SirMoo> Bumblebee hates me and I can't get NVIDIA with Optimus to work. :c
[00:11] <TJ-> bob2017: just leaving. I put the list togther at http://paste.ubuntu.com/14511809/ ... looking at your kern.log it shows the nouveau driver loading which I doubt you want to happen if that is not destined to do video - so blacklisting *that* rather than 'radeon' would seem more sensible. Remove the blaclist for radeon, and remove any /etc/X11/xorg.conf that exists
[00:12] <EriC^^> doebi: you mean you make a symlink from your home dir to /var/www/$project ?
[00:12] <bob2017> tj- i have the logs though from both livecd with it working and booting…
[00:12] <EriC^^> like ln -s ~/project1 /var/www/project1
[00:12] <bob2017> i’ve tried both of what you suggest
[00:12] <TJ-> bob2017: that, so what is the difference between livecd and installed boot?
[00:12] <k1l_> SirMoo: dont use bumblebee. use nvidia-prime
[00:12] <bob2017> tj- i don’t know
[00:12] <TJ-> bob2017: with livecd nothing will be blacklisted and there's no xorg.conf either
[00:13] <SirMoo> k1l_: Mmm... Pretty sure I have to have bumblebee otherwise it creates this annoying login loop. :c
[00:13] <k1l_> SirMoo: bumblebee was the thing before nvidia gave us nvidia-prime.
[00:13] <doebi> EriC^^: nope
[00:14] <bob2017> tj- right.  and its using both nouveau and radeon drivers, both are active
[00:14] <SirMoo> k1l_: So just uninstall bumblebee? If things end up breaking and I end up crying, I'm blaming you. T_T
[00:15] <k1l_> SirMoo: yes. use the ubuntu repo nvidia driver.
[00:15] <TJ-> bob2017: later we know you won't want the nouveau driver doing video so blacklisting that will help remove confusion. Then all you need do is focus on the radeon driver
[00:15] <bob2017> tj- that was a configuration that got pretty far into boot yesterday.  what about framebuffers should they be on?
[00:16] <doebi> EriC^^: http://files.doebi.at/temp/RzQiMlrV/
[00:16] <TJ-> bob2017: FBs should be sorted out automatically; radeon will use DRI/KMS
[00:17] <bob2017> tj- they’re all blacklisted by defeault, and i noticed that fbcon=map:1 helped the boot process a little bit
[00:18] <TJ-> bob2017: the key thing is to ensure that no /etc/X11/xorg.conf is being used by the GUI X server; let it autoconfigure as the livecd does. it would help to have a 2nd PC and connect over SSH to the problem PC so you can diagnose it even when the video is messed up - which is the best time to do it!
[00:18] <bob2017> honestly right now i can barely tell if a kernel is even loaded, it just stays on the rEFInd bios screen forever
[00:19] <EriC^^> doebi: type ls -ld /home/doebi/
[00:19] <bob2017> tj- yeah i agree… maybe that’s the strategy, i’ll go back in, chroot in, and make sure sshd is installed and configured the boot
[00:19] <bob2017> the only thing is i get all sorts of weird dependency errors when i try to use aptitute
[00:19] <bob2017> de
[00:20] <SchrodingersScat> bekks: sshfs mounts will also error somehow, I even wrote a short script that finds and kills the left behind processes :(
[00:20] <bekks> Sounds like a broken network, not an OS issue.
[00:21] <doebi> EriC^^: thanks
[00:22] <EriC^^> what's the output?
[00:22] <SchrodingersScat> bekks: I guess I was seeing if there was a ubuntu method of tracking down how bad it is, maybe where it's coming from.
[00:22] <doebi> only user having permission. i chmodded. now it works
[00:36] <lerner> how do dns blocks work?
[00:37] <krypton> Hello
[00:38] <lecheaps> lerner: funny
[00:38] <ningun> like legos
[00:41] <JayJay> hello
[00:41] <JayJay> is anyone there
[00:42] <k1l_> JayJay: lets skip that part and just ask :)
[00:42] <JayJay> ??
[00:42] <JayJay> are you on a raspberry pi 2?
[00:43] <k1l_> no. but what is your exact ubuntu support question?
[00:44] <JayJay> when i go on to mozilla it says "connecton not trusted" and i cant serch anything.
[00:45] <JayJay> i am on a raspberry pi 2 if it helps
[00:45] <doebi> lerner: think of dns servers as guides who show you the way around in the internet. when a site gets dns-blocked, those guides just pretend stupid and don't show you the way or mislead you.
[00:46] <JayJay> ok. is there anyway i can fix it?
[00:48] <doebi> JayJay: sudo apt-get install ca-certificates
[00:48] <lerner> thx doebi
[00:48] <JayJay> doebi- i am a newbie. where do i find the sudo-apt thing. thanks mate i will give it a go.
[00:49] <SchrodingersScat> !terminal | JayJay
[00:49] <doebi> lerner: so keep in mind, it's not a blockade perse. you can still go your own way and access blocked sites.
[00:50] <lerner> doebi, is that what the chinese do, or colleges with facebook?
[00:50] <JayJay> i cant see the terminal. keep in mind that i am using a raspberry pi 2
[00:50] <doebi> lerner: no chinese givs do much more funky things.
[00:51] <JayJay> hang on i found the MATE terminal. thanks guys
[01:00] <lerner> can I use cron to make an application change ports every 30 to 5o minutes=
[01:00] <lerner> ?
[01:02] <doebi> lerner: umm.. without knowing what you are after i would say yes.
[01:03] <lerner> doebi, I dont see how: if syntax is "m h  dom mon dow   command" I would have to write really a lot of lines specifying exact times for the script to work...
[01:05] <ChibaPet> lerner: Why do you want to change ports, out of curiosity?
[01:05] <doebi> lerner: http://www.corntab.com/pages/crontab-gui
[01:05] <lerner> ChibaPet, to learn
[01:06] <ChibaPet> lerner: Okay. You'd want to write a script to emit a config with a new port and programmatically restart the service, I'd imagine.
[01:06] <ChibaPet> Note that this won't provide any semblance of security.
[01:07] <lerner> doebi, that wont work either, Im looking to randomize the time the script executes itself: it is not enough to write "I want this command to be executed at this time on this day" which is what cron does
[01:07] <lerner> no ChibaPet , no security
[01:07] <doebi> lerner: then simply run a script every minute and do the randomization in a script
[01:10] <doebi> lerner: btw, now i get your nick^^
[01:10] <lerner> dropped an a
[01:17] <waterdrop> Hi, I cloned my windows + ubuntu system to an external hard drive, but now I can't boot from the external hard drive. I think the reason is that when the Ubuntu OS tries to start up, it looks for root=UUID, but currently the UUID is set to the wrong UUID (since I switched to a different hard drive).
[01:17] <waterdrop> What file should I edit to set the root=UUID parameter that's passed to the Ubuntu kernel at boot?
[01:18] <anabain> what is the CLI command to get a list of the current logged in users on a system?
[01:19] <doebi> anabain: users
[01:19] <QuinnStorm> anabain: there are a few,  'w' and 'who' come to mind
[01:19] <anabain> thanks
[01:20] <ChibaPet> anabain: look at last(1) too, for kicks
[01:22] <anabain> ok, thx
[01:25] <JayJay> when i try and look something up on mozolla firefox it says this connection is untrusted.
[01:25] <JayJay> ii am on a raspberry pi 2
[01:25] <b3n> hi guys .. anyone using Geary email client in Ubuntu 15.10 ? need help installing it ..
[01:35] <jackcom> how can i uninstall app that is download from Ubuntu software center
[01:36] <llldino> jackcom, There should be an uninstall button where the install button was if you return to where you downloaded it
[01:36] <llldino> jackcom, Also, I think there's an option if you look under your installed software tab and then select which package you want to remove
[01:36] <OneM_Industries> Hey, so I am attempting to use minicom with a serial port, but it is returning this: Device /dev/ttyS0 is locked.
[01:36] <OneM_Industries> Any ideas?
[01:36] <jackcom> oh thanks llldino :)
[01:52] <Chaser> OneM_Industries: Try and remove lock file ? On my ubuntu its /var/run/lock/LCK<something>
[02:03] <wesley> Anyone have experience with the rt2800pci driver for PCI wifi cards?
[02:15] <Clay__> Hi I'm Clay I am having difficulties downloading a vpn due to a "broken" "source.list" I'm not sure what this is or how to fix it
[02:16] <wadadli> Clay__: Please hold, all of our representative's are unavailable at the moment.
[02:16] <Clay__> Holding
[02:18] <wadadli> Clay__: sources.list can be found at /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:19] <nicomachus> Clay__: can you paste your sources.list at paste.ubuntu.com and link it here?
[02:20] <nicomachus> Clay__: easiest way to do it is "sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit"
[02:23] <Clay__> nicomachus it looked like that worked, (I didnt recieve an error message) but I am not as technically inclined as ubuntu seems to require. Im not entirely sure what I did or can tell if it worked.
[02:25] <Clay__> I recieved sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit
[02:26] <Clay__> sorry not that
[02:26] <Clay__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14513471/
[02:30] <Ben64> Clay__: 14.10 lost support July 2015
[02:30] <nicomachus> Clay__: yea. You need to upgrade immediately.
[02:30] <nicomachus> !EOL | Clay__
[02:30] <nicomachus> Clay__: follow that last link, and upgrade your ubuntu version.
[02:30] <Ben64> the next version to upgrade to, 15.04, loses support this month too
[03:04] <dronezero> Hi, I am trying to install ubuntu server using OEM mode, but oem-config fails when rebooting..
[03:08] <boxmein> help, banshee is exploding and any sort of media import freezes it http://hastebin.com/ikorudicex.xml
[03:11] <Na3iL> boxmein, lauch it from the command line and watch out for any errors.
[03:12] <Na3iL> Also it seems like a bug, so considerer report it
[03:12] <boxmein> Na3iL: that's my link! :D
[03:12] <boxmein> Na3iL: that's literally all that is shown
[03:13] <boxmein> it crashes (stops responding to GUI events on both the main window and the file input window, and stops logging) after "Beginning media import" and "Killed" is when I force quit
[03:14] <Na3iL> Ah, cool I didn't saw the link, my fault
[03:14] <Na3iL> I will check it and back brb
[03:22] <Na3iL> boxmein, many have the same problem that you have, I suggest to erase the database file here ~/.config/banshee-X/banshee.db
[03:23] <Na3iL> and rescan the media in banshee
[03:23] <Na3iL> but be aware, you will lose ur playlists if you didn't export them before erasing the database.
[03:32] <boxmein> Na3iL: hehe, thank you - it's literally a fresh install of banshee too, haven't done nothing before importing
[03:33] <OerHeks> boxmein, what is going wrong, is it a huge collection 10.000+ songs?
[03:33] <boxmein> OerHeks: should be around 1500 songs, but I'm now only adding an album of 10 songs as a test
[03:33] <boxmein> OerHeks: as for what's happening; I have the debug logs http://hastebin.com/ikorudicex.xml here
[03:33] <OerHeks> oh oke, that should be no issue then.
[03:34] <boxmein> OerHeks: the symptoms are the following: I open banshee, it opens quick, I go to Import Media -> Folders -> pick a directory, press Import
[03:34] <OerHeks> i have read that, only not clear what the time is beween start reading and the kill
[03:35] <boxmein> the import button does the thing where it shows being pressed (it's blue and has a dotted box inside it), then the banshee main window gets a dark overlay and the file import window is unresponsive
[03:35] <boxmein> both windows can be moved
[03:35] <boxmein> OerHeks: then nothing happens, no HDD activity, no log output
[03:35] <boxmein> OerHeks: until I Force Quit the banshee main window
[03:40] <merrick`> I'm trying to configure tightvnc on ubuntu 15.10, vino server was working but would not let me set the resolution on a headless machine. Now I have tightvnc working however when I connect it just shows a grey screen with a black X (instead of a mouse pointer). I suspect my problem lies in my xstartup script in /home/user/.vnc directory however i'm unsure as to what exactly is needed there to get the default ubuntu login
[03:40] <merrick`> screen. I've played with adding "unity &" "gnome-session" etc, they all result in the same grey screen. Any ideas?
[03:47] <nicomachus> merrick`: it's called lightdm
[03:48] <merrick`> nicomachus, gosh darnit! i saw that mentioned (along with some xfce stuff) and assumed it'd be a light window manager...thanks, i'll track that down!
[03:49] <anabain> how can a script which is at box A get run at box B through ssh root@box B ? (I'm aware of security concerns, thanks)
[03:54] <nicomachus> anabain: that's not really an ubuntu question.
[03:54] <nicomachus> perhaps ##bash or #bash or whatever it is
[03:54] <anabain> ok, thanks
[03:55] <EriC^^> anabain: you need to use pubkeys first, and it's easier if they dont have passphrase
[03:56] <anabain> EriC^^, thanks, I've already done all that security stuff
[03:57] <EriC^^> you're using ssh -i?
[03:57] <EriC^^> oh nevermind
[03:58] <anabain> that's what I was looking for: ssh root@remoteMachine 'bash -s' < local_script.sh
[03:59] <EriC^^> easiest thing to do would be scp script.sh user@host:/path/to/script.sh && ssh user@host /path/to/script.sh
[03:59] <EriC^^> ah that'd work too
[04:01] <Surendil> anabain, if i recall correctly it would be with ssh -l 'login' ip -x command
[04:01] <Surendil> anabain, check ssh man page
[04:03] <adoniscik> I have a 4K/4:4:4 capable screen and video card, however I do not seem to be getting it. Is there some trick to setting it at the OS end?
[04:03] <adoniscik> I can readily find settings for the resolution, but not the chroma
[04:06] <funkiestj> HALP!
[04:06] <funkiestj> I just installed ubuntu but I can't seem to "apt-get" anything without failed dependencies.
[04:07] <nicomachus> funkiestj: which version of ubuntu did you install?
[04:07] <EriC^^> did you try sudo apt-get update ?
[04:07] <funkiestj> the latest, let me see the download file name
[04:07] <Surendil> funkiestj, lsb_release -a
[04:07] <funkiestj> doing update now
[04:08] <funkiestj> lsb_release -a gives ...
[04:08] <Surendil> ubuntu version
[04:08] <funkiestj> 14.04.3
[04:09] <funkiestj> yeah, I did "apt-get update", then "apt-get install emacs24" and emacs install fails.
[04:09] <nicomachus> funkiestj: please paste the exact error to paste.ubuntu.com and link here
[04:09] <Surendil> funkiestj, try apt-get install -f
[04:10] <funkiestj> hmmm, having trouble copying in the C-A-t terminal
[04:11] <nicomachus> funkiestj: yea, you'll have to right-click then "copy"
[04:11] <funkiestj> tx
[04:11] <funkiestj> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14514256/
[04:12] <funkiestj> oops, skip to line 10
[04:12] <nicomachus> you can try "apt-get clean" and "dpkg --configure -a"
[04:13] <nicomachus> "emacs24-lucid"..... why lucid...?
[04:13] <funkiestj> should I be doing "apt-get clean" as is or with some other arguments?
[04:13] <funkiestj> I don't want lucid!
[04:13] <nicomachus> as is
[04:14] <funkiestj> I asked for emacs24
[04:14] <nicomachus> oh lucid is a UI for emacs.
[04:14] <funkiestj> I did the "clean and "dpkg --configure -a" no output for either
[04:14] <nicomachus> that's good. try install again.
[04:15] <funkiestj> same unmet dependencies
[04:15] <funkiestj> maybe my ubuntu is too new?  buggy has hell?
[04:15] <nicomachus> no.. that's the LTS version.
[04:15] <nicomachus> should be able to install emacs.
[04:15] <funkiestj> yes, but I can't get any installs to work!
[04:16] <EriC^^> any ppa's?
[04:16] <funkiestj> I've tried g++ and some other things.
[04:16] <funkiestj> they all have unmet dependencies.
[04:16] <nicomachus> this is a completely fresh install?
[04:16] <funkiestj> I just downloaded it.
[04:16] <funkiestj> and while here in irc, did "apt-get update"
[04:16] <Ben64> funkiestj: run sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, then sudo apt-get install emacs24, pastebin it all
[04:16] <funkiestj> OK Ben64.
[04:18] <funkiestj> apt-get update ... http://paste.ubuntu.com/14514298/
[04:18] <Ben64> and why are you running everything as root?
[04:19] <EriC^^> funkiestj: try sudo apt-get install emacs24-bin-common
[04:19] <funkiestj> I'm only "sudo -i" for apt-get sutff
[04:19] <EriC^^> pastebin the output
[04:19] <OerHeks> that is only update
[04:19] <OerHeks> ( the lists )
[04:19] <nicomachus> funkiestj: best to just use sudo with each command, instead of sudo -i...
[04:20] <funkiestj> I'm doing pastebin in pieces.  working on "dist-upgrade" right now.
[04:20] <funkiestj> "dist-upgrade" seems to be doing a bit of work.
[04:20] <Techspectre> So as of today, none my webkit-based browsers are able to load YouTube correctly. Looks like a site from 1993. Mostly text only. Firefox works fine, but Chrome, Chromium, Chrome Beta, Vivaldi, none of them work. Thoughts?
[04:20] <Ben64> nicomachus: agreed
[04:22] <nicomachus> Techspectre: go to Chrome (just the one I'm familiar with) and type in "chrome://plugins" in the address bar. then click DETAILS in the top right. does pepperflash show?
[04:23] <funkiestj> dist-upgrade still churning...
[04:24] <Techspectre> nicomachus, yes it does
[04:24] <nicomachus> Techspectre: try disabling.
[04:25] <funkiestj> I won't be able to pastebin the "dist-upgrade" as it has exceeded my terminal window history ...
[04:25] <Techspectre> nicomachus, no dice
[04:26] <Techspectre> nicomachus, it isn't just the videos that won't play. The entire site is broken
[04:26] <nicomachus> Techspectre: and it's only Youtube?
[04:26] <Techspectre> nicomachus, yeah. Weird, right?
[04:26] <nicomachus> yes...
[04:26] <Techspectre> hang on let me show you what it looks like
[04:27] <nicomachus> I'm assuming it's only loading HTML and not the CSS, java, or anything else.
[04:27] <Techspectre> ooooooooh
[04:27] <Techspectre> you know what it is? adblock
[04:29] <funkiestj> end of dist-upgrade and then apt-get of emacs again: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14514333/
[04:29] <nicomachus> Techspectre: ah! odd. ublock > adblock
[04:31] <funkiestj> I'm quite baffled that I can't apt-install anything.
[04:32] <Techspectre> nicomachus, thanks for the help
[04:32] <Techspectre> I guess adblock must have updated their extension and broken it
[04:33] <nicomachus> funkiestj: if it's a fresh install, I would just reinstall. verify the MD5 on your installation media and just nuke and pave.
[04:33] <funkiestj> thx nicomachus.
[04:34] <nicomachus> I know it's not the best solution to hear, but if apt-get is broken then the whole thing is.
[04:34] <funkiestj> when I get a new image, should I do "apt-get update" and "apt-get dist-upgrade" after installing?
[04:35] <OerHeks> funkiestj, what happens if you install emacs without 24 >>  sudo apt-get install emacs
[04:35] <nicomachus> always.
[04:35] <Surendil>  funkiestj apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get install emacs
[04:36] <funkiestj> apt-get emacs http://paste.ubuntu.com/14514357/
[04:37] <OerHeks> oke, here on 15.10 it does the same as emacs24 should install.. hmmz
[04:37] <funkiestj> and the "apt-get install emacs23" rabbit hole http://paste.ubuntu.com/14514360/
[04:37] <nicomachus> "sudo -i apt-get install" NO.
[04:37]  * nicomachus slaps funkiestj 
[04:38] <funkiestj> what?
[04:38] <nicomachus> you don't need "-i"
[04:38] <funkiestj> oyvey.
[04:38] <nicomachus> it's just a bad habit.
[04:40] <funkiestj> BTW, how am I suppose to check the ubuntu iso md5 from windows?
[04:40] <OerHeks> !md5sum
[04:40] <funkiestj> thx.
[04:49] <funkiestj> OK, just checked the md5sum of the "ubuntu-14.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso" and it matches the one on the ubuntu site.
[04:49] <spkirby> hi all
[04:49] <nicomachus> funkiestj: ok, go ahead and reinstall then I suppose.
[04:49] <funkiestj> BTW, I'm installing ubuntu as a VM in virtualbox.  that shouldn't matter but I'll try again.
[04:50] <funkiestj> and I'm new to VirtualBox too
[04:55] <funkiestj> BBL, thanks nicomachus and others for your help!
[04:56] <spkirby> Can anyone tell me why some packages are not update in the new LTS repos.
[04:57] <spkirby> strike new
[05:00] <OerHeks> spkirby, LTS aims for long term support, so the choise is stable packages instead of adding new features, those are introduced with the versions between lts and lts
[05:00] <OerHeks> there are a few new features though in 16.04.
[05:01] <spkirby> So are all the packages in the 14.04 frozen and only get patches?
[05:02] <OerHeks> Yes, but there is a way to get a newer kernel
[05:02] <OerHeks> !hwe
[05:03] <spkirby> Good to know.  I've been chasing a feature that wasn't released until last year.
[05:04] <spkirby> How is that different than apt-get dist-upgrade?
[05:04] <OerHeks> good question, i am not sure about that answer...
[05:06] <spkirby> Thanks OerKeks

[07:14] <thomedy> okay i am having the weirdest issue
[07:14] <thomedy> my file structure is owned by me thomedy:thomedy
[07:14] <thomedy> but i cant cd to the sub dirs
[07:15] <thomedy> i can su but i dont want to do tht it wont solve the real problem is that im getting a 403 error
[07:15] <Secret-Fire> how can i make it so that my 3 drives mount at startup rather than having to type in password everytime to mount?
[07:17] <thomedy> can anybody explain that because i dont even know what to google
[07:17] <thomedy> ls -al tells me i own it
[07:18] <thomedy> so why cant i cd into it
[07:18] <ChibaPet> not executable?
[07:18] <Ben64> thomedy: can you pastebin the output of the 'ls -al' you're referring to
[07:20] <thomedy> http://pastebin.com/9J7bHSv6
[07:20] <thomedy> im trying to cd into three
[07:21] <thomedy> clearly im doing some 3d stuff in the web
[07:21] <thomedy> thats another matter i got that
[07:21] <thomedy> and what usually works for chown should work now but what the?
[07:22] <cfhowlett> Is it just me, or is freenode having serious issues this day??
[07:23] <Ben64> thomedy: yeah you need +x to cd into a directory
[07:24] <Stinky_Feet> thomedy: The directory three needs the x bit for you to cd into it
[07:24] <thomedy> i dont think i have ever herd that but i cn do it
[07:24] <thomedy> one sec
[07:24] <thomedy> i know why i have never herd that
[07:24] <thomedy> is that it has always been there
[07:24] <thomedy> i never even looked
[07:25] <ChibaPet> 02:18 < ChibaPet> not executable?
[07:25] <Stinky_Feet> cd ..
[07:26] <Stinky_Feet> sorry, ignore
[07:28] <aq2> Stinky_Feet: cd without any args will also bring you to your home folder :)
[07:28] <thomedy> ha much butter
[07:28] <thomedy> better
[07:28] <thomedy> i honestly  never looked at that
[07:28] <thomedy> never knew cd requires x
[07:29] <thomedy> makes sense as adirectory its function to execute is to go inside like doors function is to go through
[07:31] <Dro> why its recommanded to check "Canonical Partners" in Software updates ?

[08:23] <I-Am-Groot> Hello... anyone?
[08:25] <CinnamonRickRoll> i'm not expert, but it might be worth providing a bit more info
[08:25] <blydro2> and logs
[08:25] <CinnamonRickRoll> like... when does it freeze? during boot? randomly? etc
[08:26] <I-Am-Groot> It doesnt freeze at boot
[08:27] <I-Am-Groot> The device completes the boot process and i am able to use it but somewhere between me using it, it just crashes or freezes.
[08:27] <CinnamonRickRoll> just at random times?
[08:27] <CinnamonRickRoll> it there any program you've had open all or most of the times it freezes?
[08:27] <I-Am-Groot> The screen becomes still, nothing moves not even the cursor then the capslock light begins to blink
[08:27] <I-Am-Groot> Yes
[08:28] <CinnamonRickRoll> or combination of programs?
[08:28] <CinnamonRickRoll> also how many screens are you using?
[08:28] <I-Am-Groot> Sometimes, it freezes when idle
[08:28] <I-Am-Groot> Other times, it freezes whiles using it
[08:28] <I-Am-Groot> Its random
[08:29] <CinnamonRickRoll> hmmm, also, i should mention that I will be of no help to you whatsoever, I'm not knowledgeable enough, I'm just asking in case it sparks someone else's interest
[08:29] <Ben64> kinda sounds like a hardware problem, anything show up in any logs?
[08:29] <I-Am-Groot> Ben64, Which log files should i check?
[08:29] <Ben64> all
[08:30] <I-Am-Groot> Can u pls tell me thier location? So that i can paste them
[08:30] <aq2> I-Am-Groot: could be a driver issue too.
[08:30] <I-Am-Groot> aq2, OOkay
[08:30] <I-Am-Groot> So how do i resolve it?
[08:30] <Ben64> all the logs are in /var/log
[08:30] <aq2> I-Am-Groot: Paste to terminal: inxi -Gx |pastebinit
[08:31] <I-Am-Groot> kk
[08:32] <I-Am-Groot> installing inxi
[08:33] <alkisg> One way to check if it's a hardware issue or not, is to try with another os/distro/version. And for simple things (RAM, overheat) a simple memtest might also show some results.
[08:33] <Peetz0r> ohai! How do I install the cpufreq userspace governor?
[08:34] <I-Am-Groot> I had already tried mem test. Someone already suggested that a week ago
[08:35] <I-Am-Groot> aq2, Here inxi -Gx |pastebinit
[08:35] <I-Am-Groot> sorry
[08:35] <I-Am-Groot> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14515123/
[08:35] <alkisg> I-Am-Groot: have you tried e.g. windows or other distros or other ubuntu versions?
[08:35] <alkisg> Memtest is good enough only for a small amount of hardware problems
[08:35] <I-Am-Groot> Windows works fine.
[08:36] <alkisg> That's significant information, you should mention that :)
[08:36] <I-Am-Groot> I dont use windows for long but it never froze like that.
[08:36] <alkisg> What's the output of `lspci -nn -k | grep -A 2 VGA` ?
[08:37] <alkisg> Caps blinking means "kernel panic", that the kernel has detected an unrecoverable error
[08:37] <I-Am-Groot> Yea.
[08:39] <I-Am-Groot> At first, i used to run 32bit version of ubuntu 14.04 and it worked perfectly for a year until it started crashing. But with that version, whenever it crashed, it will switch to text console and display some error messages. But on 64bit, it just freezes. no error messages
[08:41] <I-Am-Groot> Dmesg Output .. http://paste.ubuntu.com/14515155/
[08:42] <I-Am-Groot> lspci output http://paste.ubuntu.com/14515159/
[08:43] <I-Am-Groot> Hello
[08:44] <I-Am-Groot> ping
[08:45] <I-Am-Groot> dmesg output http://paste.ubuntu.com/14515155/
[08:45] <I-Am-Groot> lspci output http://paste.ubuntu.com/14515159/
[08:46] <alkisg> I-Am-Groot: To get the crash messages from the kernel you'd need a serial cable etc, it's not trivial. So now if you suspect it's a kernel issue and not a hardware issue, you could try different kernels. E.g. try installing the older 14.04 32bit version and see if that still works ok
[08:46] <alkisg> If you see that older kernels work, and a newer doesn't, you'd file a kernel bug and try to bisect it
[08:46] <I-Am-Groot> OOkay
[08:47] <I-Am-Groot> SO u saying i can install a 32bit kernel on a 64bit system?
[08:47] <alkisg> Of course, didn't you say you had that already in the past?
[08:47] <I-Am-Groot> Yes
[08:47] <I-Am-Groot> But i wiped that and installed the 64bit
[08:48] <alkisg> And now 64bit doesn't work for you, so why not try 32bit again.
[08:48] <PengunCSC> hey guys, I have a few bash script I'd like to sync between different computers. What would be the best way to go:  start a PPA or sync to GitHub?
[08:48] <I-Am-Groot> OOkay
[08:48] <alkisg> PPA is for packaging, you probably mean a launchpad bazaar branch
[08:50] <alkisg> Both git and bazaar are fine, many people prefer git though
[08:50] <I-Am-Groot> I tried booting with an older kernel bu there was just one kernel
[08:50] <PengunCSC> alkisg: I know nothing about any of them. I want to be able to add it to the regulat update cycle, so I can create a package containing the scripts and upload to the PPA
[08:50] <alkisg> I-Am-Groot:  You can install many kernels, then they'll appear in grub
[08:51] <I-Am-Groot> alkisg, How do i do that please?
[08:51] <alkisg> PengunCSC: if you plan to create .deb packages out of them and put them on a repository, then bazaar is easier, it's integrated better into launchpad
[08:52] <alkisg> I-Am-Groot: you install any linux-kernel image: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=trusty&keywords=linux-image
[08:52] <alkisg> Select a number from there and instsall it
[08:52] <PengunCSC> alkisg: can you point me to a guide or HOWTO for it?
[08:53] <alkisg> PengunCSC: here's one: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA
[08:53] <hatim_> hello
[08:56] <PengunCSC> alkisg: isn't for the PPA? Is there one for the bazar?
[08:56] <alkisg> PengunCSC: if you follow the links from there, it'll point you to how to create a bazaar branch, how you can build recipes, how to create a debian/ dir for packages etc
[08:58] <I-Am-Groot> Sorry, It happened again
[08:58] <I-Am-Groot> Can u pls repost the links for th kernel again?
[08:59] <alkisg> (10:52:09 πμ) alkisg: I-Am-Groot: you install any linux-kernel image: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=trusty&keywords=linux-image
[08:59] <PengunCSC> alkisg: 10x!
[08:59] <I-Am-Groot> Okay
[09:08] <lerner> what command do I need to get the incoming/outcoming traffic?
[09:09] <EriC^^> lerner: ifconfig
[09:09] <alkisg> iftop
[09:09] <MoonUnit`>  iftop
[09:09] <lerner> ill rephrase: a command or a program that will show how traffic evolves, like a graphic
[09:12] <bramgn> lerner: or perhaps ntop if you want more detailed views
[09:16] <lerner> how do I exit iftop?
[09:17] <MoonUnit`> ctrl+c
[09:18] <MoonUnit`> or q
[09:19] <lerner> sudo iftop lists eth0 , which is empty. sudo iftop wlan0 should work, right?
[09:19] <alkisg> sudo iftop -i wlan0
[09:21] <lerner> thanks
[09:21] <bids> Yo
[09:23] <bramgn> lerner: most commands will give you basic instructions by giving it --help

[09:28] <Muh2> Hi, I have joined Ubuntu translation team for my language. I need a software for doing translation even when I'm offline and later on upload to Launchpad. Is there such kind of software?
[09:30] <bramgn> Muh2: you can't just use a text editor?
[09:30] <lerner> tx, rx: down and up traffic I assume, but why t and r?
[09:31] <Muh2> bramgn: I can, but thought there could a software which make the work more intuitive, do you any?
[09:32] <tochapos> Muh2: google translate already does it
[09:32] <bramgn> Muh2: no, i'm sorry. I'm not familiar with the translation process either, so can't really comment
[09:34] <alkisg> Muh2, there's poedit
[09:34] <Muh2> tochapos: what I want is a GUI software to be to see the English strings on one side and the translation I'm doin on the other
[09:34] <alkisg> sudo apt-get install poedit
[09:34] <alkisg> Then double click on a .po file
[09:34] <lerner> how do I complain about an user?
[09:35] <tochapos> Muh2: I think Google translate you can embed the code html style
[09:35] <rww> lerner: #ubuntu-ops, if you mean someone in here
[09:35] <rww> i'd handle it, but i'm literally getting up to go to bed
[09:36] <Muh2> alkisg: thanks.
[09:37] <bramgn> tochapos: stop harassing people by insulting them in private chats
[09:37] <lerner> I feel now like im back at school...
[09:38] <tochapos> bramgn: would if I were
[09:40] <Guest42505> anybody with some advice on mbr and grub
[09:40] <tochapos> Muh2: If there were a wrapper for translate on linux.
[09:41] <alkisg> Guest42505: I advice you to use them :)
[09:41] <alkisg> OK, seriously, you need to tell us about the problem first
[09:41] <tochapos> Muh2: https://code.google.com/p/google-translate-desktop/
[09:41] <Guest42505> thanks alkisg!
[09:42] <Muh2> tochapos: thanks.
[09:42] <tochapos> Muh2: it's in java
[09:42] <Guest42505> problem is, my system does not use the ones I want it to use ;)
[09:42] <alkisg> Guest42505: do you mean that you have many disks and you can't tell your system to use the ones you want?
[09:42] <Guest42505> i am using grub-install to reinstall the grub
[09:43] <Guest42505> but grub-install install a x386 grub instead of x64
[09:43] <alkisg> dpkg -l '*grub*' | grep ^ii
[09:43] <alkisg> dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc (if that's what you have)
[09:43] <aq2> Guest42505: i don't think grub is 32-bit or 64-bit.
[09:46] <bramgn> elky: thanks for that
[09:48] <drfits> Hi there, I'm a Linux Mint user, yesterday I've miss and set delete key as hotkey therefore now Delete is not working :(
[09:48] <cfhowlett> !mint | drfits
[09:48] <Guest42505> thanks alkisg I gave it a try, reinstall succesfull without errors, but...
[09:48] <Guest42505> Installing for i386-pc platform.
[09:48] <cfhowlett> drfits, sorry, no mint support here.  ubuntu only.
[09:48] <Guest42505> on my x64 system :s
[09:48] <alkisg> Guest42505: you need to tell us the output of that first command that I gave you
[09:49] <drfits> awful :(
[09:49] <Guest42505> it lists grub-pc there
[09:49] <alkisg> Guest42505: put all of the output to paste.ubuntu.com, then give us the resulting URL
[09:49] <alkisg> E.g. you might have both legacy grub and grub-pc installed. Or you might have grub-efi. We want to see the output to continue.
[09:49] <cfhowlett> drfits, ?  not really.  mint SHOULD provide support of their OS.  look for it.  if they do not ... perhaps it is time to reconsider your OS choice.
[09:50] <Guest42505> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14515463/
[09:50] <elky> bramgn: if he returns report it in #ubuntu-ops please
[09:50] <alkisg> Guest42505: OK, so, do you have multiple disks? Did dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc prompt you to select a disk?
[09:50] <bramgn> elky: ok
[09:51] <elky> bramgn: thanks :)
[09:51] <Guest42505> yes, multiple disks. prompted to install so i selected my preferred boot disk
[09:51] <alkisg> Guest42505: and now if you reboot and select that one boot disk in the bios, you don't see grub there?
[09:52] <Guest42505> I have not rebooted yet ;)
[09:52] <Guest42505> but the x386 worries me
[09:52] <alkisg> I didn't see any x86 in your paste
[09:52] <alkisg> It was all amd64
[09:52] <aq2> is there 32-bit and 64-bit grub?
[09:52] <alkisg> grub is compiled for 32 and 64 bit as a package, yes
[09:53] <alkisg> And there's also grub for efi and for a lot of other architectures
[09:53] <Guest42505> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14515484/
[09:53] <poterops> aq2: good question which raises a bigger issue. What is taking so long to get rid of 32bit
[09:54] <alkisg> Guest42505: all bios-based x86 systems boot in 32bit mode, so the modules are the same, you can ignore that "i386-pc platform"
[09:54] <Guest42505> so the system is still x64 as should be
[09:55] <Guest42505> another thing, my bios is uefi
[09:55] <poterops> 8 bit 16 bit 32 bit. Now it seems everything is stuck on 32
[09:56] <alkisg> Guest42505: your "bios" may have both uefi and the older csm (bios) method
[09:56] <alkisg> You don't have grub-efi installed, so you're using the bios mode now
[09:56] <aq2> poterops: not really, most people are on 64-bit
[09:56] <Guest42505> so you would not expect the initrd image to be 64bit?
[09:56] <poterops> X64 really isn't true 64 bit either.
[09:56] <Guest42505> should I install grub efi then?
[09:56] <alkisg> Guest42505: the initrd image is 64bit since you have a 64bit os
[09:56] <alkisg> No, you're not using UEFI
[09:57] <alkisg> The live cd would have detected it if you were
[09:57] <alkisg> And it would have installed grub-efi for you
[09:57] <Guest42505> ok
[09:58] <Guest42505> could it be that the live cd has not picked it up because I had no efi partition set up on my disk?
[09:58] <poterops> We should be on 128 bit by now
[09:58] <alkisg> Guest42505: If you don't have an efi partition, then you're not using uefi :)
[09:58] <aq2> poterops: why do you even care?
[09:58] <Guest42505> or should I just stick to bios mode (if it is booting in a moment)
[09:58] <alkisg> It might be that the ubuntu mint live cd doesn't support efi, I don't know
[09:58] <alkisg> You can stick to bios mode, there's no reason for you to switch to efi
[09:58] <Guest42505> ok
[09:58] <Guest42505> if it boots at all that is.
[09:59] <unkown1997> Excuse me ,when I install ubuntu 64 bit 14.04.3 LTS and after that when I try to change the theme it's give me a lot of error , sorry for bad english .
[09:59] <poterops> aq2: you wanting to argue with me
[09:59] <aq2> no
[09:59] <Guest42505> origin of my issue was that I switched to a new SSD
[09:59] <Guest42505> and so far the system has ot booted from it but preferred the old mbr it pickd up somewhere
[10:00] <poterops> 128bit could do in one cycle what takes all hour for 32bit
[10:00] <alkisg> Guest42505: do you mean that you cloned the old disk, or did you reinstall?
[10:00] <Guest42505> reinstall
[10:00] <wadadli> unkown1997: is this a new suspense novel
[10:00] <alkisg> Guest42505: then it's possible that you've configured e.g. your bios to boot from sda, while you installed your grub to sdb
[10:00] <cfhowlett> poterops, this is the ubuntu support channel for currently supported OS issues.  please discuss 128 and other thereoticals in #ubuntu-offtopic.  thank you.
[10:01] <Guest42505> if i get into my bios and force boooot from the ssd it hangs
[10:01] <arcsky> hi,  sudo vconfig add eth0 100 means the eth0.100 got vlan-id 100 ?
[10:01] <Guest42505> i.e. it cannot find a bootable drive
[10:01] <alkisg> Guest42505: maybe at that point you haven't yet installed (properly) your grub to the ssd disk
[10:01] <Guest42505> yes probably alkisg
[10:02] <EriC^^> Guest42505: are you in a live usb right now?
[10:02] <Guest42505> no in the actual system
[10:02] <EriC^^> ok, so your problem is fixed?
[10:02] <valerio> ciao
[10:02] <alkisg> You can check with kvm if your ssd is bootable or not. unmount everything from the ssd, then apt-get install kvm, then sudo kvm -m 512 /dev/sdb
[10:02] <cfhowlett> Guest42505, this is your mint OS system?
[10:02] <Guest42505> running from the new drive but booting from the old :D
[10:02] <unkown1997>  Excuse me ,when I install ubuntu 64 bit 14.04.3 LTS and after that when I try to change the theme it's give me a lot of error , sorry for bad english
[10:02] <cfhowlett> !patience > unknown1997
[10:03] <unkown1997> ok
[10:03] <aq2> unkown1997: Your english is ok, what other languages do you speak? There may be a chatroom at your language too.
[10:03] <aq2> cfhowlett: |
[10:03] <EriC^^> Guest42505: can you pastebin df -Th and sudo parted -l ?
[10:03] <Guest42505> cfhowlett, i will find out in a moment when i reboot. so far bios did not boot from the ssd
[10:04] <cfhowlett> aq2, good advice
[10:04] <aq2> sorry if i was annoying
[10:04] <bhalash> unkown1997: If you have enough English to know it is bad, and enough intelligence to apologize for the fact, then you're already doing better than some native speakers I know
[10:06] <unkown1997> Arabic English Turkish Kurdish and Russian
[10:06] <Guest42505> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14515525/
[10:06] <cfhowlett> what language do you prefer to use unkown1997 ?
[10:07] <unkown1997> Arabic + English
[10:07] <cfhowlett> !arabic | unkown1997
[10:07] <HackerII> he stated english was one of them, so, he may be at home here.
[10:08] <aq2> !finnish
[10:08] <Guest42505> the 200 mb the efi fat32 partition is another attempt to get uefi going
[10:08] <alkisg> Guest42505: your ssd partitions are in the wrong order (number 2/1)
[10:08] <unkown1997> شكراً
[10:08] <EriC^^> Guest42505: did you try to run sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sdb ?
[10:08] <aq2> !fi
[10:09] <aq2> nice :)
[10:09] <Guest42505> yes, rechecked it
[10:09] <EriC^^> finland?
[10:09] <aq2> well you can find it out from my /whois too
[10:09] <aq2> no big secret
[10:09] <EriC^^> Guest42505: ok, so what happens when you boot with ssd first in order now? legacy mode
[10:10] <Guest42505> so boot as is?
[10:10] <EriC^^> i was wondering what fi was
[10:10] <aq2> ok
[10:10] <EriC^^> didn't see you type finnish above
[10:11] <EriC^^> Guest42505: yeah give it a shot, try sudo update-grub btw
[10:11] <aq2> thats a very useful bot
[10:11] <Guest42505> wait, I might have to put the boot flag back to my ext4 partition
[10:12] <EriC^^> nah it's unnecessary
[10:12] <Guest42505> as the efi partition has nothing on there
[10:12] <Guest42505> hahaha
[10:12] <Guest42505> ok, might see you back in a moment, thanks for the help!
[10:12] <EriC^^> efi partition is useless right now
[10:12] <EriC^^> so it's ok
[10:14] <peaceful> Hi, how can i isntall LTS kernel, please? I need bit olde kernel cause my old laptop doesnt work with new ones.
[10:15] <vincent__> magic! just rebooted from my ssd
[10:15] <Guest22608> (see how fast that was?!)
[10:15] <poterops> Just use LTS peaceful
[10:16] <aq2> what version does 14.04 come with?
[10:16] <MonkeyDust> peaceful  what's the output of   cat /etc/issue;uname -r
[10:16] <Guest22608> thanks alkisg and eric
[10:17] <EriC^^> !info linux-generic | aq2
[10:17] <EriC^^> !info linux-generic trusty | aq2
[10:17] <peaceful> MonkeyDust, Ubuntu 15.10 \n \l
[10:17] <peaceful> 3.13.0-031300-generic
[10:17] <Guest22608> is there an advantage of using uefi over bios?
[10:18] <EriC^^> Guest22608: operating systems dont overwrite eachother's bootloaders, and it's a tad quicker to boot
[10:18] <Guest22608> you reckon I'll notice the msecond?
[10:18] <EriC^^> nah
[10:18] <alkisg> Sure they do override the bootloaders :D
[10:18] <Guest22608> :D
[10:18] <EriC^^> i do like uefi, it's newer and has more stuff
[10:18] <alkisg> In some cases uefi only boots a single filename, so they fight over that one
[10:19] <alkisg> I.e. no internal boot manager
[10:19] <unkown1997> Excuse me The Arabic channel dosen't respond :(
[10:19] <EriC^^> alkisg: yeah i know, but each os can have it's separate efi file
[10:19] <unkown1997> can you answer ?
[10:19] <EriC^^> not 1 mbr
[10:19] <alkisg> Only in theory, in practise there's the same file for all instead of the same mbr for all
[10:19] <Guest22608> so the efi partition on your harddsik is just the location for the different efi files
[10:19] <alkisg> bootx64.efi if I recall well
[10:20] <EriC^^> alkisg: well not really, bootx64.efi for windows and grubx64.efi for ubuntu
[10:20] <alkisg> Only if you manage to get your uefi to load grubx64.efi
[10:20] <alkisg> Which in many cases isn't possible
[10:20] <EriC^^> so if you remove ubuntu, you don't need to reinstall any bootloader using a windows cd, like in legacy
[10:20] <EriC^^> read above ^ that's what i'm trying to convey
[10:20] <alkisg> So then bootx64.efi is used for ubuntu too
[10:20] <EriC^^> those are just awful implementations of uefi
[10:20] <alkisg> So then grub and windows fight over the same filename
[10:21] <EriC^^> where manufacturers tamper with it
[10:21] <alkisg> There are too many of them out there
[10:21] <EriC^^> alkisg: you still have 2 separate files though
[10:21] <Guest22608> i am glad to say that I never had a windows os installed on my system
[10:21] <EriC^^> i'll brb food has arrived :D
[10:21] <alkisg> There's microsoft.efi and grub.efi, but there's a common bootx64.efi, so you have to overwrite it with one of the others
[10:22] <alkisg> It's the same as in mbr
[10:22] <Guest22608> so whatever mint uses as bootloader file, it's all hers
[10:22] <alkisg> Have a good appetite :)
[10:22] <unkown1997> Excuse me ,when I install ubuntu 64 bit 14.04.3 LTS and after that when I try to change the theme it's give me a lot of error
[10:22] <unkown1997> For example, the screen suddenly flashed Black or  automatic logout if I passed the cursor over the bottom of the screen
[10:22] <MonkeyDust> !info linux-generic | peaceful
[10:22] <Guest22608> see you later!
[10:22] <EriC^^> alkisg: nah you dont have to overwrite it
[10:23] <EriC^^> alkisg: im too hungry to argue right now
[10:23] <alkisg> EriC^^: well, I've done it in many cases, following the official info from grub
[10:23] <Guest22608> :D
[10:23] <alkisg> Sure
[10:23] <EriC^^> in the end you have 2 files being used
[10:23] <MonkeyDust> peaceful  simply try sudo apt update; sudo apt-dist-upgrade; sudo apt-get autoremove
[10:23] <EriC^^> you never boot windows from grub unless you chainload its efi file right?
[10:23] <MonkeyDust> peaceful  simply try sudo apt update; sudo apt dist-upgrade; sudo apt-get autoremove
[10:23] <Amara> Hi, I got a ubuntu 14.04 desktop that is being powered on for 30min daily. unattended upgrades is installed. It looks like it doesn't upgrade itself because 30 minutes is not enough. What should I do to ensure upgrades got installed automatically?
[10:23] <alkisg> EriC^^: grub cannot chainload the windows efi file, it's in a special format
[10:24] <EriC^^> alkisg: lol
[10:24] <alkisg> Well, there are 2 of them, one in the standard efi format and another in an ms efi format
[10:24] <MonkeyDust> Amara  first upgrade with the power connected and wait for it ... the next upgrades shouldnt take that long
[10:24] <alkisg> bootmgr.efi is in ms format, it can't be loaded by grub
[10:24] <EriC^^> this is from grub.cfg chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
[10:24] <alkisg> Right, that's the standard one
[10:25] <EriC^^> huh
[10:25] <alkisg> and then bootmgr.efi can only be loaded from bootmgfw.efi
[10:25] <MonkeyDust> Amara  depending on your internet speed, of course
[10:25] <EriC^^> ok i think we're drifting apart
[10:25] <Amara> MonkeyDust, I mean unattended upgrade is not triggered, it is not about cpu/ssd/internet speed
[10:25] <EriC^^> the whole point of uefi having advantage over legacy is that you dont have 1 mbr where only 1 bootloader can sit, you have an efi partition where many efi files can exist
[10:25] <alkisg> EriC^^: anyway, no point in getting into it, I looked into it in a lot of detail to get my mind changed from irc, and we both don't need more info about that currently to spend time in it
[10:26] <alkisg> Well, it's not the sole point
[10:26] <alkisg> And not all implementations support that
[10:26] <alkisg> Some don't even support displaying a boot menu with all the .efi files to choose from
[10:26] <EriC^^> regardless from the fact that some uefi implementations dont like the linux efi and you have to trick the bios into booting the linux one by renaming it
[10:26] <alkisg> If the implementations only know one filename, then it's the same as in mbr
[10:27] <alkisg> It's overwriting a fixed place
[10:27] <alkisg> Be it filename or sector, it doesn't make a difference
[10:27] <EriC^^> that doesn't make sense
[10:27] <EriC^^> cause you still have 2 files and you can switch them back whenever you want
[10:27] <alkisg> You can have 2 .mbr files
[10:27] <alkisg> And switch them however you want
[10:28] <EriC^^> well that's you using dd
[10:28] <EriC^^> not uefi
[10:28] <EriC^^> ;)
[10:28] <EriC^^> if you wanna get pedanticilikilyyy
[10:28] <alkisg> And that's you using cp in some fat filesystem
[10:28] <alkisg> Not uefi
[10:28] <EriC^^> well i can still boot from efi using uefi
[10:28] <alkisg> uefi doesn't have support for switching between them
[10:28] <EriC^^> also this is extreme cases of MANUFACTURER twisting of uefi specs
[10:28] <EriC^^> not uefi itself
[10:29] <alkisg> The specs don't mandate a boot loader, only suggest it
[10:29] <alkisg> *boot menu, sorry
[10:30] <alkisg> Anyways, we both know the technical side, so go eat your food, no point in arguing over semantics
[10:30] <EriC^^> i'm already eating
[10:30] <alkisg> :)
[10:30] <EriC^^> :)
[10:30] <cfhowlett> and it begins ... greasy keyboard errors
[10:30] <cfhowlett> GKE

[11:28] <droid> any one know a fix ?
[11:29] <Nature_0770> anyone there
[11:29] <droid> yeah go ahead
[11:30] <Nature_0770> any best uninstaller for ubuntu apps ?
[11:30] <k1l_> droid: intsall unity-webapps-service
[11:31] <aq2> Nature_0770: sudo apt-get purge application
[11:31] <k1l_> Nature_0770: use softwarecenter or in terminal "sudo apt-get rmeove packagename"
[11:31] <Nature_0770> i am on xubuntu, so no unity
[11:31] <aq2> Nature_0770: apt-get purge will work even without xorg
[11:32] <Nature_0770> any 3rd party tool ?
[11:32] <bekks> Nature_0770: No 3rd party tool required.
[11:32] <k1l_> Nature_0770: you dont need a 3rd party tool. ubuntu got enough own tools
[11:32] <Nature_0770> I want to purge chrome but with all configs it has on my pc.
[11:32] <Nature_0770> purge only didn't work last time
[11:33] <bekks> Nature_0770: so use apt-get purge
[11:33] <bekks> Nature_0770: Why didnt it work, exactly?
[11:33] <k1l_> Nature_0770: remove tha package and then remove the .chrome folder in your homw
[11:33] <aq2> Nature_0770: purge it first, then remove its ppa's.
[11:33] <aq2> k1l_: purge removes .chrome too.
[11:33] <bekks> aq2: No, it doesnt.
[11:33] <aq2> i weird
[11:33] <k1l_> aq2: nope
[11:33] <aq2> weird
[11:33] <Nature_0770> yup it doesn't
[11:33] <bekks> aq2: purge literally never touches configurations in your home.
[11:34] <Nature_0770> hmm true.
[11:34] <aq2> Nature_0770: rm -r ~/.chrome
[11:34] <Nature_0770> yes, that will work
[11:34] <k1l_> aq2: purge is about system settings not the stuff that the program loads at first start
[11:34] <aq2> ok
[11:34] <aq2> is there some way to remove them automatically?
[11:34] <k1l_> and sorry, its .config/google-chrome
[11:34] <aq2> ahh right it is
[11:35] <bekks> aq2: No, no automatic way. Thats intended.
[11:35] <aq2> hmm...
[11:35] <Nature_0770> yes that is why I was searching uninstaller
[11:35] <MonkeyDust> aq2  after that, do   sudo aptitude purge ~c
[11:35] <k1l_> Nature_0770: there is nonw
[11:35] <bekks> Nature_0770: There is no uninstaller that will do that.
[11:35] <Nature_0770> so whenever i remove any app, it must remove everything related to it
[11:35] <bekks> Nature_0770: Remove the user configs manually.
[11:36] <droid> cant get it install k1l
[11:36] <Nature_0770> hmm.. doing manually like always.
[11:39] <boxmein> hey can I use ubuntu packages built for like raring/saucy on wily

[11:40] <k1l_> boxmein: no
[11:40] <k1l_> boxmein: ask the maintainer to update that ppa
[11:40] <boxmein> k1l_: can i uh, compile the thing from source or something
[11:41] <boxmein> k1l_: yeah, that'll be forever
[11:41] <boxmein> but I'll poke the guy

[11:53] <MeowZedong> hi, i am setting up ubuntu on my dad’s machine, during the setup process do i just set one partition to mount on / — do i also have to tell the setup process which drive to boot on?
[11:54] <MeowZedong> because the first time i installed it, it didn’t over-write the boot, and it booted into win 7 again, this time i am trying to force a format on both drives
[11:54] <MeowZedong> do i have to mark a partition as bootable?
[11:56] <MeowZedong> i was hoping it would be intelligent enough to set the boot sectors on the partition i marked as /
[11:56] <bekks> MeowZedong: Which will render the system not bootable.
[11:56] <Guest67190> Hello
[11:57] <MeowZedong> bekks: oh
[11:57] <Guest67190> News?

[13:18] <MeowZedong> Hi guys I could use your help on this one: I bought a D-Link USB Wifi stick. I stick it in the USB slot and I get Wifi. That’s what this stick does.
[13:18] <MonkeyDust> ubuntu926  ask your question in english and wait
[13:19] <MeowZedong> When I insert it, how do I know it’s installed?
[13:19] <ubuntu926> It is trying to remove google earth that leaves no uninstall
[13:19] <MonkeyDust> ubuntu926  sudo aptitude purge ~c
[13:19] <MeowZedong> I am running Ubuntu Gnome 14.04.3 LTS
[13:19] <ubuntu926> already did
[13:19] <zu> ioria, ...and?
[13:20] <ubuntu926> MonkeyDust:  already did
[13:20] <ioria> zu   see if you can set the input volume and if it's responsive
[13:20] <MeowZedong> The Dlink USB<->Wifi stick is called D-Link DWA-131
[13:21] <ioria> zu   if so, arecord -d 10 test-mic.wav
[13:21] <MeowZedong> Does Ubuntu Ghome 14.04.3 LTS support D-link USB<->Wifi stick model # DWA-131 out of the box?
[13:21] <skyman> Helo
[13:22] <OerHeks> MeowZedong, if you see wifi in your network manager, it does
[13:22] <OerHeks> MeowZedong, if not, open terminal: ctrl alt T > lsusb # and show us the line with your wifi adapter
[13:22] <ubuntu926> MonkeyDust:   How do you control what you say the terminal?
[13:23] <zu> ioria, i can set the volume but still doesn't works. Also with arecord i only get rustling
[13:24] <ioria> zu   you can try with an external mic, plug it in the pink one
[13:25] <ioria> zu   or whatever the mic plug is
[13:26] <zu> ioria i haven't.  i have this problem in weeks it's kind of frustrating
[13:26] <ioria> zu   i see

[13:42] <zu> now?
[13:42] <ioria> zu reboot ...
[13:42] <zu> ok i'll be back in a sec
[13:43] <buengenio> what's the point/benefit of using UUIDs to specify the root defice for boot?
[13:43] <buengenio> can i still use the good old root=/dev/sda1?
[13:45] <zu> here i'm
[13:45] <ioria> zu  no luck ?
[13:46] <michiwend> im running an ubuntu server 14.04 (64 bit, hosteurope vm) and after some uptime i allways get "Failed to fork" errors when trying to run different commands, for example apt-get upgrade. I do have enough free ram (free shows me atm 1.3G) and my ulimit -a gives me the following https://paste.ubuntu.com/14516804/
[13:46] <zu> ioria i'll try
[13:46] <ubuntu926> http://pastebin.com/3KyTdJ78
[13:47] <zu> ioria, no luck
[13:47] <ubuntu926> anyone know what that means?
[13:47] <ubuntu926> http://pastebin.com/3KyTdJ78
[13:47] <zu> i'll try two things, sorry one sec
[13:48] <ioria> zu   check alsamixer
[13:48] <michiwend> moreover hosteurope says, the ram is dynamic and my vm can use up to 6GB (min 4)
[13:49] <michiwend> so, i have no idea how to debug this issue... the only thing i can to is to reboot my machine now and then
[13:50] <mtilhan> hi i have a problem, [any letter key] + alt opens the type your command launcher. Any chance to block that? I am playing some games and it becomes a hindrance.

[14:11] <jophish> Hi all, I've got an annoying problem. If I alt-tab to chrome and then touch a link (touchscreen) it acts as though the control button is depressed
[14:11] <jophish> tapping ctrl fixes this
[14:11] <jophish> but it happens again the next time I alt-tab to chrome
[14:15] <MonkeyDust> jophish  is that a tablet?
[14:17] <zu> ioria :(
[14:24] <MeowZedong> OerHeks: what is the network manager called in Ubuntu?
[14:25] <MonkeyDust> MeowZedong  try nm-applet
[14:29] <Lyden> Can the people in here assist me with Xubuntu?
[14:30] <bekks> Lyden: That strongly depends on your actual issue with xubuntu.
[14:31] <Lyden> I'm helping my friend over the phone (an issue unti itself) set up his 3.5mm headphone+mic combo. He can't seem to hear any audio with it, frehs Xubuntu install.

[14:48] <OerHeks> silly factoid
[14:57] <hypermist> https://github.com/mbassan/wlox-cron/blob/master/receive.sh says transaction is a dir, obviously yes it is a dir, but im having a feeling thats not letting that .sh file run ? can someone help me debug
[15:00] <CinnamonRickRoll> this might go better in the #bash chat room
[15:01] <CinnamonRickRoll> did you give the file perms tho?
[15:01] <hypermist> yay CinnamonRickRoll ty
[15:01] <CinnamonRickRoll> np
[15:01] <hypermist> CinnamonRickRoll, file has all perms
[15:01] <CinnamonRickRoll> well, I'm not an expert on bash :) I'm in the process of teaching myslef, so I won't be much help I'm afriad :)
[15:02] <hypermist> :)
[15:02] <hypermist> tiliopp, what the hell did you say taht to me in a pm for ?
[15:03] <tiliopp> He pm me
[15:03] <hypermist> Well do i care you dont have to voice waht he said to you to me...
[15:04] <OerHeks> hypermist, join #ubuntu-ops please, if you have a complaint.
[15:04] <wbill> i i have a process i need to start on the command line and i need to close the terminal before the proc is done what do i use to make sure it doesn't get killed & doesn;t work when the terem dies it dies anyone?
[15:06] <OerHeks> wbill, example:  gedit &  # You can close the terminal by pressing Ctrl-D at the prompt instead of using the window controls. This will do what you want.
[15:06] <Stinky_Feet> hypermist: Did you give the script an argument? If not it will try to echo into a directory and it will fail...
[15:07] <hypermist> well tbh i have no idea what its doing Stinky_Feet its not my src code
[15:09] <Stinky_Feet> hypermist: "./receive.sh test"   will create a file called "test" in the transactions directory with the contents "test"
[15:09] <wbill> OerHeks im ssh'd in is this gonna matter
[15:09] <hypermist> maybe i need to add something extra like you said
[15:12] <OerHeks> wbill hmm yes, see the last answer on this page >> http://askubuntu.com/questions/163567/start-program-from-terminal

[15:15] <citoplasma> And... thanks
[15:16] <Stinky_Feet> hypermist: I had a quick look, the script is supposed to be executed by the bitcoin daemon, you specify the path to it in your bitcoin.conf file: https://github.com/wlox/wlox/blob/master/README.md#setting-up-the-bitcoind-server
[15:16] <hypermist> yea i just realized.
[15:16] <hypermist> I added a dir like you said well thing after the receive.sh
[15:17] <BluesKaj> citoplasma, the bot is merely telling you where ubuntu support is in the spanish language
[15:20] <ubuntu> hello
[15:21] <citoplasma> I know but, it was because his explain about how to enter in the channel
[15:21] <Guest93220> i can`t see my login page i just installed sudo apt-get install mdm or xdm what should i do?
[15:22] <Guest93220> what should i do in recovery mode
[15:22] <BluesKaj> repair packages
[15:22] <Guest93220> i can`t see my login page i just installed sudo apt-get install mdm or xdm what should i do?
[15:23] <IdleOne> citoplasma: not all users know how to enter a new channel. Many users are first time users on irc
[15:23] <BluesKaj> Guest93220, repair packages in recovery mode
[15:24] <ioria> Guest93220,
[15:24] <ioria> Guest93220, see if you can open a console
[15:24] <IdleOne> Guest93220: sudo dpkg-reconfigure mdm. BluesKaj your answer is less than helpful. If they knew how to repair they would. They are asking how to do it.
[15:24] <bgardner> I have an enormous number of "indicator" processes running, is that normal?  e.g. 'ps aux | grep "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/indicator-.*/indicator-(bluetooth|sound)-service" | wc -l' yields 97.
[15:24] <ioria> !info mdm
[15:25] <Guest93220> BluesKaj, i am new to linux how?
[15:25] <ioria> !info xdm
[15:25] <ioria> Guest93220, which one ?
[15:25] <Guest93220> BluesKaj, with what command can i repair?
[15:25] <BluesKaj> IdleOne, yes and I'm telling him to choose repair packages in the recovery kernel
[15:25] <Guest93220> ioria, i don`t know exactly?
[15:26] <IdleOne> BluesKaj: your answer was vague at best considering your audience. Use some common sense, new user, Guest* nick...
[15:26] <citoplasma> well, i talked in my case
[15:27] <ioria> Guest93220,  why did you install it  (?)  , and what ubuntu are you on ?
[15:27] <truexfan81> man i love the linux multitasking lol
[15:27] <Guest93220> ioria, i was looking for another package but i installed it wrong i am on mint 17
[15:27] <truexfan81> in my ubuntu trusty vm i'm compiling from source and apt-get upgrading at the same time lol
[15:28] <citoplasma> sorry and thanks again
[15:28] <BluesKaj> Guest93220, reboot into the recovery kernel and choose repair packages in the dialog that shows up there, if mint has that option
[15:29] <ioria> Guest93220,  ha...  ok. don't know much about mint. but you can open a console ctrl+alt+f1 (or f2)   and purge the package sudo apt-get purge xdm  , for example
[15:29] <BluesKaj> IdleOne, happy now?
[15:29] <nedal> g
[15:29] <PHroGman> The information about available software is out-of-date To install software and updates from newly added or changed sources, you have to reload the information about available software.You need a working internet connection to continue.
[15:29] <PHroGman> Why do i get this?
[15:29] <Guest93220> ioria, i see this message same that it is lock
[15:29] <IdleOne> BluesKaj: Only reason we know that is because ioria took the time to do the leg work. Your answer was still vague even if this channel did support mint.
[15:30] <k1l_> PHroGman: because you changed the repos and the packages lists need to be reloaded from all servers
[15:30] <arunpyasi> hi all
[15:30] <PHroGman> how do i do that?
[15:30] <ioria> Guest93220, come again , please ?
[15:30] <Guest93220> ioria, okay
[15:30] <arunpyasi> is there any tools to create iso from an ubuntu usb stick ?
[15:30] <BluesKaj> IdleOne ...blah blah , then why didn't you help him?
[15:31] <Guest93220> ioria, i do and come back
[15:31] <ioria> Guest93220, no...  i mean ... i don't get you :þ
[15:31] <PHroGman> Im kinda new
[15:31] <citoplasma> Guest93220, you can use synaptic to uninstall the package
[15:32] <citoplasma> packages*
[15:32] <k1l_> PHroGman: it asks you to reload.
[15:32] <k1l_> PHroGman: or open a terminal and do "sudo apt udpate"
[15:32] <PHroGman> yes but i did and I still get that message
[15:33] <k1l_> PHroGman: where?
[15:33] <PHroGman> W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/dvdstyler-maintainers/ppa/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-amd64/Packages  404  Not Found

[15:33] <k1l_> PHroGman: so you use PPAs that are shut down
[15:33] <PHroGman> Thats what I get when I try to reload
[15:33] <OerHeks> PHroGman, old ppa, see https://launchpad.net/~dvdstyler-maintainers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa no trusty candidates
[15:34] <PHroGman> ok
[15:34] <citoplasma> RT k1l_
[15:34] <k1l_> PHroGman: or to be more precise: ppas which dont even have 14.04 packages insite
[15:34] <k1l_> *inside
[15:37] <truexfan81> thats so sad lol the 2 compiles finished before the apt-get upgrade
[15:38] <PHroGman> I think the reason was I had to install a newer version of DVD styler to work.
[15:39] <PHroGman> If I delete those repositories how can I update the version on my machine now
[15:39] <k1l_> PHroGman: the reason is that you were using a PPA that was not updated since ages and doesnt have packages for 14.04 or newer
[15:39] <PHroGman> ic
[15:41] <PHroGman> I have 2.96 installed
[15:41] <PHroGman> thats why
[15:41] <k1l_> !info dvdstyler trusty
[15:42] <k1l_> PHroGman: see in here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=dvdstyler if there is another PPA with packages for trusty
[15:45] <PHroGman> Ahhhh.... I got it got it from here....https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+archive/ubuntu/dvdstyler

[15:57] <Krigsforbryter> Hello, My server rebooted today because of powerloss. After reboot i got the message "give root password for maintenance or type control-d to continue". No one of my passwords work. If i press ctrl + d i got "Error getting authority: Error initializing authority: Could not connect: No such file or directory (g-io-error-quark, 1)" What to do? :(
[15:58] <Boing> Ryzom from SF.net takes long time
[16:02] <Stinky_Feet> Krigsforbryter: Could be a disk problem after the powerfailure. Can you boot with a USB stick or similar and check if you can access all your partitions as they are  specified in fstab on your server? See http://askubuntu.com/questions/631362/error-getting-authority-error-initializing-authority-could-not-connect-no-suc (and others)...

[16:04] <BottomNotch> I'm trying to do a dualboot install of xubuntu and windows on the Dell inspiron 15.  I booted to the live session and used gparted to make a new partition for Linux and a linux-swap partition.  I then booted to windows to make sure it still works and it did, except the it still seemed to think it had the same amount of space from before I shrunk the windows partition.  I  booted back into xubuntu and opened gparted and found that the the windows partit
[16:05] <Boing> \All I did to dual boot was wubi
[16:05] <k1l_> Boing: wubi is bad
[16:05] <BottomNotch> boing: wubi?
[16:06] <Boing> O?
[16:07] <k1l_> wubi means it installed into the windows system. which means someday ubuntu and/or windows will break. and we can do nearly nothing to help. so make a proper dual boot and install ubuntu into own partitions.
[16:07] <teward> k1l_: not to mention Wubi doesn't work with 8, 8.1, 10, or UEFI...
[16:07] <teward> :P
[16:07] <Boing> Ubuntu has it's drive
[16:08] <BottomNotch> k1l_: I just googled it, I have windows 8.1 so wouldn't work for me anyways.
[16:08] <Boing> I dont think it has uefi
[16:08] <BottomNotch> And I also have uefi
[16:09] <k1l_> BottomNotch: your message was cut after "and found that the the windows partit"
[16:09] <Boing> the live cd installes ubuntu to my pvc
[16:09] <murty> i have a lenovo laptop with four partitions, all ntfs with windows 10 on C drive. when i try to run the installer, some of my partitions look merged into a single giant partition. i have some data that i can't afford losing. how should i install ubuntu 15.10?
[16:10] <BottomNotch> k1l_ oh, I'll post the rest sorry :P
[16:11] <BottomNotch> found that the the windows partition was still shrunk and I still have the ext4 partition and linux-swap partition.  I'm really not sure what to do from here.
[16:12] <k1l_> BottomNotch: how did you shrink the windows partition?
[16:13] <andreyv> I am on Ubuntu 14.04 and want to install virtualbox-guest-utils. Using apt-get, it also tries to install virtualbox-guest-x11, which I don't want. virtualbox-guest-x11 is only listed as recommended, not required here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/virtualbox-guest-utils  What am I doing wrong?
[16:14] <BottomNotch> I went to gparted, I right clicked on the windows partition, I dragged the bar until i has about 340GB of space on that partition
[16:14] <teward> andreyv: sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends virtualbox-guest-utils
[16:14] <BottomNotch> Then from the unallocated space I made an ext4 partition and a linux-swap partition
[16:14] <teward> see if that works
[16:15] <andreyv> teward: That worked, thanks
[16:18] <Boing> So is the BRGT thing a problem when I boot up ?
[16:19] <teward> andreyv: you're welcome.  keep in mind that if you want to not isntall recommended packages, you provide --no-install-recommends.
[16:19] <teward> :)

[16:20] <BottomNotch> So does anyone know how to fix my issue with partitions?
[16:21] <Boing> u resized under windows, right?
[16:22] <BottomNotch> Boing: No, I resized under a live session of xubuntu
[16:23] <joyce__> Can we create hotspot of a wifi network in ubuntu?
[16:23] <Boing> windows 10 gots to resize its own part
[16:23] <aaser> So, other than running in circles while screaming, what should I do when I have broken packages?
[16:24] <aaser> Tried to install openssh-server and got this: http://pastebin.com/RAW6va6W on 15.04
[16:24] <Boing> SSL 3 aint cool
[16:25] <OerHeks> aaser, run: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade # to see if there are updates pending, and fresh lists
[16:26] <joyce__> anyone knows about making hotspot of a wifi network
[16:26] <OerHeks> joyce__, some adapters can, hotspot is 'adhoc'> https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/net-wireless-adhoc.html
[16:26] <aaser> OerHeks: tried to do so but I still get the same error
[16:26] <BottomNotch> Boing: Oh, oops.  Do what should I do now, I've already resized from gparted, should I unallocate the positions i made for Linux and put them on the windows partition again?
[16:27] <joyce__> OerHeks: but that discconnects the wifi
[16:27] <joyce__> I am using
[16:28] <Boing> I think windows needs resize after you made the gparted for linux.. nometter what linux made the gparted ..
[16:28] <OerHeks> joyce__, ehhh so? you cannot connect to your router and use the same wifi device for htspot
[16:29] <OerHeks> use cable + wifi or double wifi devices
[16:29] <joyce__> What I need is, like connectify in windows or the u c browser in windows,which help us to make the hotspot of of  the wifi we are using any software available with ubuntu OerHeks  ?
[16:29] <Boing> u mean 14.04 lts has a server in it? Apache?
[16:29] <OerHeks> joyce__, no.
[16:30] <joyce__> OerHeks: No alternative?
[16:30] <OerHeks> joyce__, keep asking, same answer\
[16:31] <OerHeks> i just wonder, windows does not do that too, afaik
[16:31] <joyce__> I am able to make hotspot over there
[16:31] <OerHeks> if you are connected to a wifi accespoint, why not let the other devices use the same ?
[16:32] <BottomNotch> Boing: So the order in which to do things of resize and make new partitions in gparted, boot to window and resize the windows partition to make the new size?
[16:33] <rak__> hay alguien ahiii????
[16:33] <rak__> hi
[16:34] <OerHeks> aaser, strange, what if you install it from softwarecenter/synaptic?
[16:34] <Boing> mm, yes.. I let the live cd install for me and then went to windows to resize from windows.
[16:34] <ioria> joyce__, https://github.com/anubhavchaturvedi/ConnectifyLinux   give a look
[16:35] <BottomNotch> Boing: ok, thanks
[16:36] <Boing> . If you have a drive with any pre-existing partitions, or multiple drives, then you should use manual partitioning. Ensure you have backups.
[16:36] <aaser> OerHeks: I tried that now. It wants to remove a ton of packages, including my entire install of ROS(robot operating system)
[16:37] <BottomNotch> Boing: what do you mean manual partitioning?
[16:39] <Boing> Using windows, set manual size, then use gparted if needed to set
[16:40] <OerHeks> aaser, oke, so the source of your issue is that ROS. i have no clue then ..
[16:40] <Boing> \If you go 14.02 or better, ubuntu, and don't have win 8.. it wont cause problem.  By all means backup, and if recovery is needed, have disks
[16:40] <aaser> OerHeks: It also wants to remove google-chrome, and seemingly every other package I have installed
[16:41] <BottomNotch> Boing: i have multiple partitions, I set the size in gparted before setting in windows.
[16:41] <Boing> okay then bottomNotch, go windows10 and resize.
[16:42] <BottomNotch> Boing: ok
[16:42] <BottomNotch> Well windows 8, have not upgraded to 10
[16:42] <Boing> windows 8 has the problem with ubuntu
[16:43] <Boing> read about ubuntu .. learn about it before it wipe your drives
[16:44] <k1l_> BottomNotch: might be the "not real shutdown to simulate a faster reboot" thing from windows.
[16:44] <BottomNotch> Really? I had no problems with a windows 8/ubuntu 14.04 dualboot on my other laptop
[16:44] <k1l_> BottomNotch: load the windows and shrink the partition in there
[16:44] <Boing> Automatic upgrade on drives containing user data partitions, including from other operating systems, and all Windows 8 systems, will result in the whole drive being wiped and all existing data will be lost. This bug is present in released media of 14.04 and 14.04.1, but is fixed for 14.04.2 and later. If you have a drive with any pre-existing partitions, or multiple drives, then you should use manual partitioning. Ensure you have bac

[16:57] <ifoza> EriC^^, k1l_: how do I mount from terminal?

[17:08] <JGrote> Hello! I am using UnionFS and am looking for a way to move files from the "top" layer FS to the "bottom" layer FS when disk space gets low. I'm looking for a low and high watermark solution, e.g. "When disk space is below 10%, move files, oldest first, to the bottom FS until disk space comes back up to 50%". Is there a pre-made solution or package for this before I go scripting it?
[17:09] <Boing> Unity, with Gnome.  But, 14.04 is ubuntu gnome3
[17:09] <Boing> gnome3.12 instead of unity ?
[17:10] <nudoge> Morning, can anyone point out to me why I can't seem to understand systemd?  And, why is it so hard to find concatinated introduction to systemd?
[17:11] <rogo> can someone tell me how to uninstall this: http://prntscr.com/9qvt4i   ?
[17:12] <bekks> Boing: Whats your full question?
[17:13] <JGrote> nudoge: Are you familiar with Upstart? Here's a good transition guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers
[17:13] <Boing> I am wondering .. I got Unity but then got fallback to gnome for session, and the Meta, and I think I got the unity kernel
[17:14] <Boing> Is the gnome3.12 Ubuntu different?
[17:14] <bekks> Boing: What are you talking about? There is no such thing as "Unity kernel".
[17:15] <nudoge> JGrote: I used it for one of the ubuntu's I installed.  Thanks I'll start there.  The class I took skipped Upstart and moved into sysctl and systemd.unit.
[17:15] <Boing> Unity desktop, then
[17:16] <bekks> Boing: And whats your question now?
[17:17] <rogo> can someone tell me how to uninstall this: http://prntscr.com/9qvt4i   ?
[17:17] <Boing> bekks what version do i have, kernel, unity, gnome?
[17:18] <bekks> Boing: Lookup kernel version: uname -a;
[17:19] <bekks> Boing: Does your desktop look like this?: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_(user_interface)#/media/File:Ubuntu_15.04.png
[17:19] <Boing> TY, eh
[17:20] <packards> hello there
[17:20] <Boing> Yes
[17:20] <Boing> Then I put gnome on it
[17:20] <bekks> Boing: Then you have Unity.
[17:21] <Boing> I log by clicking the fallback icon, and get gnome, otherwise the unity desktop loads
[17:21] <bekks> Boing: you geht unity fallback, not gnome.
[17:22] <Boing> well yeah
[17:22] <Boing> but tha release shows a 3.12 gnome, is it different core / kernel?
[17:23] <bekks> Boing: which release of what show what where?
[17:23] <JonnyMahony> hi
[17:23] <nbusrone> hi , I have some problem install grub
[17:24] <JonnyMahony> Is there any software with which I can cut a piece of the screen and copy it as a picture, for example to paste in into a document?
[17:24] <rogo> can someone tell me how to uninstall this: http://prntscr.com/9qvt4i   ?
[17:24] <JonnyMahony> Like hold a key down and cutting with the mouse and then I have that piece of the screen and can paste it into a document?
[17:25] <bekks> rogo: how did you install it?
[17:25] <rogo> @JonnyMahony : I use GIMP, but thats not a simple probram
[17:25] <j_seraph> Hi, Ubuntu is taking longer time to shutdown than usual ? I checked process monitor didn't find any particular process running ? Any ideas where to start?
[17:25] <rogo> @bekks: with root and *.deb file
[17:25] <JonnyMahony> Using GIMP all the time is annoying, I just want to cut a piece of the screen where I'm working and paste it into a document or so
[17:26] <nacc> JonnyMahony: you can take screenshots and use whatever editor you want to crop?
[17:26] <bekks> rogo: Then uninstall that package again.
[17:27] <JonnyMahony> @nacc : But that's annoying, I just want to do it in real time and not with a paint program
[17:27] <rogo> @bekks: but it doesnt find it back there
[17:28] <nacc> JonnyMahony: not sur how it has anything to do with Ubuntu per se, but did you try googling?
[17:28] <Boing> Ubuntu GNOME 14.04.2 is released with Linux Kernel 3.16.
[17:28] <bekks> rogo: Then what commandline are you using?
[17:28] <nacc> JonnyMahony: http://askubuntu.com/questions/18867/which-tool-to-crop-a-portion-of-the-screen
[17:28] <JonnyMahony> @nacc : I'm just asking if there is a program for Ubuntu which can do that
[17:28] <rogo> @bekks: using for what??
[17:28] <bekks> rogo: For uninstalling that package...
[17:29] <rogo> @bekks: for the moment: none. I dont know how. thats the question.
[17:29] <JonnyMahony> @nacc : I want to do it without a screenshot first
[17:29] <bekks> rogo: Then how do you know its not named like that?
[17:29] <bekks> rogo: If you didnt even try :)
[17:29] <nacc> JonnyMahony: *read* that page please ... specifically "Press SHIFT + PRINTSCREEN for a screenshot of a Region you select with your Mouse."
[17:30] <kinker31> Heya! I have a medium-sized problem. My ubuntu live DVD boots up in BIOS mode when I have an EFI system. Is there any way to get the liveDVD to boot up in EFI mode?
[17:30] <JonnyMahony> @nacc : ok but then that region is saved in some folder I guess, I just want to cut it out, then drag it into a document
[17:30] <JonnyMahony> @nacc: I think windows journal can do such a thing?
[17:30] <rogo> @bekks: i found the solution: I clicked to install agand and then I was able to uninstall it. It was great to keep the deb-file of the onofficial deb-list. its easy for uninstall then.
[17:31] <Boing> windows10 has a snip tool thing that works with IE
[17:31] <rogo> @bekks:edit: it is only Reinstall that it did. i was too fast to inform ye
[17:31] <bekks> Boing: Windows 10 is out of interest in here.
[17:31] <Boing> I was just sayin
[17:31] <nacc> JonnyMahony: seriously? is it that hard to insert from Pictures/ or wherever it stores by default? I personally don't care if windows journal can do something. If you want feature parity, file a request with the upstream developers, I'd think
[17:32] <JonnyMahony> nacc : I know, but that's annoying. I want to collect pictures by simply drag and drop into a document. I don't think that's hard science to do
[17:33] <nacc> JonnyMahony: submit patches upstream, then
[17:33] <JonnyMahony> :/
[17:33] <kinker31> I'm running the 15.04 live disk, by the way.
[17:35] <nacc> JonnyMahony: meanwhile, you could just be using the tool as it's already designed and probably be done with whatever project it is :) Take all the screenshots then drag & drop from the file manager to your heart's content
[17:35] <JonnyMahony> hhm alright @nacc
[17:36] <Stinky_Feet> JonnyMahony: I use Gnome, I don't gnow if you have access to gnome-screenshot in your standard Ubuntu installation, but if you do, you can just set up a keyboard shortcut to gnome-screenshot -a -c, which will let you grab an area of the screen, which it will save in the copy/paste buffer without writing it to a file.
[17:37] <JonnyMahony> Stinky_Feet : That sounds like what I want !
[17:38] <nacc> Stinky_Feet: ah nice, the -c option
[17:38] <JonnyMahony> Stinky_Feet I need "gnome-screenshot" ?
[17:38] <nacc> http://askubuntu.com/questions/343444/gnome-screenshot-copy-to-clipboard-shortcut
[17:38] <Boing> bekk .. I think i have a 3.19 kernel
[17:38] <Stinky_Feet> Dunno, I don't know if it is included in the standard Unity installation, or if it has something else....
[17:39] <nacc> JonnyMahony: fwiw, on my Ubuntu, it's defaulted to shift+ctrl+print already
[17:39] <JonnyMahony> @nacc: Ok thank you, I'll read it
[17:40] <nacc> JonnyMahony: it doesn't "drag and drop" but means you can just paste in whatever tool you're using
[17:41] <JonnyMahony> @nacc : Ahh I works, perfect, thank you :)
[17:41] <JonnyMahony> it*
[17:42] <JonnyMahony> @nacc a bit awekward with my fingers, but ok
[17:46] <JonnyMahony> @nacc @ Stinky_Feet alright that's it. Thank you and have a nice day.

[18:00] <WildSoft> bekks: Lubuntu from 14.04 to latest
[18:01] <WildSoft> 14.04.3 LTS is on the system at the moment
[18:01] <ioria> WildSoft, officially you can't
[18:02] <WildSoft> you can't?
[18:02] <WildSoft> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu "Upgrading from last release"
[18:02] <ioria> WildSoft, no , you can do-release-upgrade from lts to lts
[18:02] <Cyber_Akuma> Is a swap partition required? Are there aplications or software that expect you to have one and would not work if you didn't have one?
[18:02] <ioria> WildSoft, the latest is not lts .... (15.10)
[18:03] <WildSoft> ah
[18:03] <ioria> WildSoft, btw, is possible but not advisable
[18:03] <WildSoft> My bad, so perhaps not worth the upgrade then?
[18:03] <ioria> no
[18:03] <WildSoft> OK! Thank you =)
[18:04] <ioria> WildSoft, unless you got some hw or sf problem s
[18:04] <aq2> !virtualbox
[18:04] <adov> which language should i use to write scripts in ubuntu?
[18:04] <Stinky_Feet> Cyber_Akuma: Depends on the amount of RAM available. If you have enough the only functionality you will miss is hibernate (in my experience).
[18:04] <aq2> thats so handy :)
[18:04] <Guest32309> hello
[18:04] <Guest32309> i have ubuntu MATE and some of letters doesnt work
[18:04] <WildSoft> The computer is a office one, slow as heck. Has an Intel® Celeron® Processor 420 with 1 GB RAM. Some programs and apps are not working as expected. But most is
[18:05] <Guest32309> some body know the solution?
[18:05] <aq2> Guest32309: What letters? What applications have this issue?
[18:05] <ioria> WildSoft, if you want 15.10 backup and install ... but for me is better 14.04
[18:05] <Guest32309> the i, r and o
[18:05] <aq2> Menu -> Keyboard -> Layouts
[18:05] <ioria> WildSoft, which apps are not working ?
[18:05] <WildSoft> I think so too. Not my computer and I'm currently using RDP
[18:05] <Cyber_Akuma> Stinky_Feet: I have 16gb on the laptop I am considering dualbooting
[18:07] <Stinky_Feet> Cyber_Akuma: I have 16GiB of RAM on my desktop, I run it without SWAP, normally at least two virtual machines running under Ubuntu, no problems.
[18:07] <ioria> WildSoft, with a win machine ?  are you using rdesktop ?
[18:07] <WildSoft> ioria: Was some kind of small erros. Can't remember exactly now. But I fixed workarounds for most of them. I haven't heard anything for some time now. So I think it's good.
[18:07] <WildSoft> No, Teamviewer, sorry for the confusion =P
[18:08] <ioria> WildSoft, ah, ok ... uname -r ?
[18:08] <WildSoft> eh?
[18:08] <ioria> WildSoft,  which kernel ?   uname -r
[18:09] <WildSoft> I'm not that familiar with linux, but isn't -r = remove? =P
[18:09] <ioria> no :þ
[18:10] <aq2> WildSoft: Not with all programs, type uname --help for all options
[18:10] <WildSoft> Can't be too careful xD 3.13.0-74-generic
[18:10] <HackerII> WildSoft:  what kernel are you using
[18:10] <nicomachus> WildSoft: for uname, the -r option is equal to --kernel-release
[18:10] <WildSoft> =)
[18:10] <ioria> WildSoft,  uname -a  if it makes you fell better
[18:10] <ioria> ^_^
[18:11] <WildSoft> ^ just got you the kernel =)
[18:11] <Boing> posix7zip ?

[18:12] <adov> i am beginner of linux.how should i learn it?

[18:12] <WildSoft> I did =) ^
[18:12] <HackerII> WildSoft> Can't be too careful xD 3.13.0-74-generic
[18:12] <ioria> oh sorry
[18:13] <ioria> WildSoft,  it's an old install
[18:14] <WildSoft> ioria: it is?

[18:15] <Boing> I have a .7z file. will the 7zip un-zip this file?
[18:15] <WildSoft> Linux Workstation-Lubuntu 3.13.0-74-generic #118-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 17 22:52:02 UTC 2015 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
[18:15] <nicomachus> Boing: yes.
[18:16] <WildSoft> Dec 17 2015. Doesn't seem that old

[18:16] <Boing> ok, i thought I would have to get all the othe 7zip stuff to make file
[18:16] <WildSoft> ioria: The packet manager says so
[18:17] <WildSoft> ioria: just run those commands I guess?
[18:17] <ioria> WildSoft,  yes ...
[18:18] <linux> i am connected to my isp network with my laptop wifi i have username and password from my isp to enter and connect to internet in fedora i use from pppoe-setup and enter my username and password and then i use from pppoe-connect to connect to internet what should i do in ubuntu?
[18:18] <Boing> 7zip is debian. oh
[18:18] <WildSoft> ioria: Thought I just did that... 9 items to be upgraded
[18:19] <ioria> WildSoft,  which are ?
[18:19] <nicomachus> linux: select your SSID from the dropdown on the top menu (it's a wifi symbol), then enter your password in the popup.
[18:19] <WildSoft> heh, too late. =)
[18:19] <WildSoft> ioria: Already running
[18:19] <ioria> ok
[18:20] <WildSoft> ioria: Full command for dist-upgrade? sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[18:20] <ioria> yes
[18:20] <WildSoft> thanks
[18:20] <WildSoft> Just need to wait for the upgrade to be done
[18:20] <Boing> how can i request file with apt-get instead of this Unity..
[18:21] <WildSoft> This darn computer runs at 100% constantly...
[18:21] <ioria> WildSoft,  anyway  3.13.0-74 is the latest for your release
[18:21] <aq2> Boing: What exactly do you want to do? download a .deb?
[18:22] <aq2> apt-get download package
[18:22] <WildSoft> ioria: Everything is done now
[18:22] <WildSoft> uname -r still says 3.13.0-74-generic
[18:22] <ioria> WildSoft,  yes
[18:22] <WildSoft> ah, thanks for the help =)
[18:23] <ioria> WildSoft,  when did you install it ?
[18:23] <WildSoft> Wonder why the updater didn't "upgrade" those 9 things
[18:23] <WildSoft> ioria: Lubuntu? Like 1 year ago?
[18:23] <ioria> WildSoft, cat /etc/issue
[18:25] <WildSoft> ioria: gir1.2-gtk-3.0 libgail-3-0 libgtk-3-0 libgtk-3-bin libgtk-3-common libmm-glib0 libnautilus-extension1a modemmanager nautilus-data
[18:25] <WildSoft> those were the 9 to upgrade
[18:25] <ioria> WildSoft, ok  and     cat /etc/issue   ?
[18:26] <WildSoft> just cat /etc/issue ?
[18:26] <ioria> yes, run in terminal
[18:26] <WildSoft> ioria: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS \n \l
[18:27] <travix> Think anyone can help me get wine installed on Ubuntu 14.04?  I'm having trouble.  It says certain dependences haven't been met and I think they have
[18:27] <travix> :S
[18:28] <WildSoft> ioria: ?
[18:28] <aq2> travix: sudo apt-get install wine, post output to dpaste.com, share link here.
[18:29] <ioria> WildSoft, it's ok . if you don't have issues you can wait for the next lts ... or , if you have backup, make a new install of Lubuntu that will ship a new stack
[18:30] <bekks> WildSoft: you dont need to reinstall everything - when having your backup. you could install 14.10, then 15.04, then 15.10. Personally, I strongly suggest to NOT do so.
[18:30] <travix> aq2: http://dpaste.com/1GBA2FH  Thanks btw!
[18:30] <ioria> WildSoft, i mean always of 14.04
[18:30] <HackerII> WildSoft:  meanwhile, see if you cant scrape up some more ram.
[18:31] <ioria> utopic will not  be  available
[18:31] <TheNH813> Anyone know the MD5 for 12.04.1 i386 Desktop ISO?
[18:31] <nicomachus> !pm | linux
[18:31] <TheNH813> I absolutely need 12.04.1 and older for some hardware I have. I torrented the ISO and I want to make sure it's not messed with.
[18:31] <WildSoft> HackerII: Not my computer, but will buy them a new one soon anyway
[18:31] <aq2> traviscline: sudo apt-get install libcheese-gtk23 libcheese7 && sudo apt-get -f install
[18:31] <nicomachus> !md5 | TheNH813
[18:32] <aq2> travix: sudo apt-get install libcheese-gtk23 libcheese7 && sudo apt-get -f install
[18:32] <WildSoft> ioria: Thanks for all the help
[18:32] <aq2> sorry traviscline :)
[18:32] <TheNH813> I need the MD5 itself.
[18:32] <ioria> WildSoft,  no problem
[18:32] <TheNH813> The hexidecimal digits. The official hashes file is goen from the Ubuntu site
[18:32] <bekks> TheNH813: Its on the downloads page.
[18:32] <TheNH813> Not for 12.04.1
[18:32] <linux> i am connected to my isp network with my laptop wifi i have username and password from my isp to enter and connect to internet in fedora i use from pppoe-setup and enter my username and password and then i use from pppoe-connect to connect to internet what should i do in ubuntu?
[18:32] <TheNH813> It's for 12.04.5
[18:32] <aq2> TheNH813: if you downloaded with a torrent you don't need to check the md5.
[18:32] <nicomachus> TheNH813: http://releases.ubuntu.com/
[18:32] <bekks> TheNH813: because 12.04.5 is the current 12.04 release
[18:33] <TheNH813> I got the torrent from TPB so I'm not sure if I can trust it.
[18:33] <nicomachus> why
[18:33] <TheNH813> All the official torrents for the first rlease of 12.04.1 wre gone.
[18:33] <linux> nicomachus, what do you mean?
[18:33] <nicomachus> you can torrent it straight from releases.ubuntu.com
[18:33] <aq2> travix: is it working?
[18:33] <bekks> nicomachus: Which will not help in comparing the hashes.
[18:33] <nicomachus> linux: it's pretty straightforward... I can't explain it any better than I did.
[18:33] <travix> aq2: 0f install wine*?
[18:33] <bekks> nicomachus: having the file downloaded, it is strongly suggested to manually compare the hashes.
[18:34] <travix> aq2: -f*
[18:34] <travix> aq2: no
[18:34] <nicomachus> bekks: of course, but I don't know why he would get it from TPB and not from the release page.
[18:34] <OerHeks> TheNH813, do not trust TPB torrents, use the official http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/
[18:34] <linux> nicomachus, i use from pppoe-setup in fedora
[18:34] <TheNH813> Mkay, I checked the page you just linked but I don't see one for 12.04.1.
[18:34] <aq2> travix: Ok, run on terminal: sudo apt-get install wine1.8
[18:35] <TheNH813> I guess I shoudl explain my reasoning. I have to use a really old legacy driver. The version of Xorg is too new in the latest 12.04.
[18:35] <bekks> TheNH813: I just told you that 12.04.5 is the current 12.04 release.
[18:35] <TheNH813> I need an older version.
[18:35] <linux> nicomachus, i have username and password for connecting
[18:35] <travix> aq2:  http://dpaste.com/2ZBB57H
[18:35] <TheNH813> It's gonna be installed alongside my recent 14.04.
[18:36] <linux> nicomachus, my isp gave me username and password to use from internet
[18:36] <bekks> TheNH813: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04.1/
[18:36] <TheNH813> Thanks!
[18:36] <TheNH813> I'l download the lejit copy then
[18:36] <aq2> travix: Run this, then the previous command again: sudo apt-get install libcheese7 libcheese-gtk23
[18:36] <linux> i am connected to my isp network with my laptop wifi i have username and password from my isp to enter and connect to internet in fedora i use from pppoe-setup and enter my username and password and then i use from pppoe-connect to connect to internet what should i do in ubuntu?
[18:37] <aq2> travix: Also, run sudo apt-get update before all that.
[18:37] <aq2> travix: Then all errors to dpaste or pastebinit.
[18:37] <TheNH813> @Linux If you're connected from WiFi, I think you need to use the WiFi name and password
[18:37] <travix> aq2: ok
[18:38] <TheNH813> @bekks Thanks for the link. I could not find that page from any search engine I tired.
[18:38] <bekks> TheNH813: I did. Within 10s on google.
[18:38] <linux> TheNH813, my username is different thatn my wifi name
[18:38] <TheNH813> @linux Hm.......
[18:39] <bekks> TheNH813: "ubuntu old releases" - first search result.
[18:39] <TheNH813> Ok, do you know where edit connection properties is?
[18:39] <TheNH813> @bekks Guess I used the wrong search terms
[18:39] <travix> aq2: http://dpaste.com/2YCY1VW
[18:40] <aq2> travix: You have a ppa issue, ask for someone else's help.
[18:41] <TheNH813> @Linux What ISP do you have?
[18:42] <linux> TheNH813, my isp has a router near to my home i can connect to their antenna easily
[18:42] <OerHeks> travix, remove that ppa with http://ppa.launchpad.net maverick .. 10.10 went EOL ages ago
[18:43] <travix> OerHeks: Thank you

[18:52] <nolsen> I get that when trying to encrypt my flash drive.
[18:52] <bekks> nolsen: /dev/sdb1 does not exist.
[18:53] <nolsen> But it should.

[18:55] <nolsen> Well gnome disk utility sees it.
[18:56] <nolsen> oh wait nvm.
[18:56] <nolsen> bekks: nvm again.
[18:56] <nolsen> When I tried to encrypt the flashdrive, it does that.
[18:58] <nolsen> bekks: Is it a gnome disk utility bug?
[18:58] <bekks> nolsen: I never used that thing, since there is fdisk.
[18:58] <ilmaisin> hi, is hdmi surround audio still somehow problematic in desktop linux
[18:58] <nolsen> Well gnome says there's a sdb1

[19:04] <ren0v0> Hey, i'm using remmina and RDP to connect to my windows install and use photoshop. However the colour picker is showing the wrong colours, blue = red etc. However when i connect over VNC there is nothing wrong with the photoshop install. Anyone know what could cause that ?
[19:04] <easyOnMe> sorry I need to include a path like this: PATH=$PATH:~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/
[19:04] <easyOnMe>  inside ~/.profile
[19:05] <easyOnMe> do I just type in the whole path or include them inside an if - fi block
[19:05] <linux> TheNH813, are you there?
[19:06] <easyOnMe> sorry I need to include a path like this: PATH=$PATH:~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/
[19:06] <easyOnMe> do I just type in the whole path or include them inside an if - fi block
[19:06] <bekks> easyOnMe: Include it where?
[19:07] <easyOnMe> bekks: inside the ~/.profile
[19:07] <easyOnMe> file
[19:07] <bekks> easyOnMe: Just add it to the PATH already defined in there.
[19:08] <easyOnMe> bekks: but I do not see any
[19:08] <bekks> easyOnMe: So pastebin your .profile please.
[19:08] <easyOnMe> bekks: you mean I just type it just like this:PATH=$PATH:~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/
[19:09] <bekks> easyOnMe: Depends on your existing .profile
[19:09] <Stinky_Feet> ren0v0: I've had similar problems with remmina/RDP. Try fiddle around with custom resolutions that actually matches the Windows desktop and make sure to set the Color depth properly. Also fiddle with the quality setting. It is a pain, but you should be able to get it working by trial and error... You might have to disable transparancy and such in the Remote Desktop settings on the Windows box.
[19:10] <easyOnMe> bekks: how come its says you are trying to send an empty document when I sent this command: sudo ~/.profile | pastebinit
[19:11] <ifoza> How can I set all partitions to be mounted automatically every time system boots?
[19:11] <ioria> sudo ?
[19:11] <bekks> easyOnMe: Look into that file. It is empty, isnt it?
[19:11] <easyOnMe> bekks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14531613/
[19:12] <bekks> easyOnMe: Is that IN the .profile?
[19:12] <easyOnMe> bekks: I use this command on the terminal: echo ~/.profile | pastebinit
[19:12] <easyOnMe> no
[19:12] <bekks> easyOnMe: Well, then your .profile is empty.
[19:12] <easyOnMe> the profile contains a lot of text none of which I understand it is new to me
[19:12] <easyOnMe> bekks: no it isn't
[19:13] <bekks> easyOnMe: Then pastebin the output.
[19:13] <easyOnMe> bekks: when I opened it using nano it contains something
[19:13] <easyOnMe> how
[19:13] <Stinky_Feet> Try cat instad of echo?
[19:13] <easyOnMe> I did everything I know on the terminal already
[19:13] <easyOnMe> how to output the content of a file
[19:13] <easyOnMe> it is echo right
[19:13] <Stinky_Feet> cat
[19:13] <ioria> easyOnMe, cat .profile | pastebinit
[19:14] <easyOnMe> ioria: thanks

[19:19] <bazhang> Boing, stay civil here, what is ryzom
[19:19] <Boing> bekks, I used the software center to get a file, Ryzom, and the install failed
[19:19] <bekks> Boing: you said you downloaded it from sourceforge.
[19:20] <Boing> I also tried to download from SF.net, yes
[19:20] <bekks> Boing: There is no package called "ryzom" in the repos.
[19:20] <bazhang> Boing, you grabbed something from some 3rd party and the package manager refused it?
[19:20] <Boing> No, I t is in my software center

[19:27] <damascene> bekks, because it is not normal? unusual?
[19:28] <bekks> damascene: So what is upward doing, normally, usually? What is it for?

[19:51] <wad> Hi guys. So I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit desktop edition. It came with Chromium. I'm trying our a music streaming service (tidal.com), but the best quality only works on Chrome. Should I try replacing Chromium with Chrome? https://support.tidal.com/hc/en-us/articles/202162111-System-Requirements-for-HiFi-using-the-Web-Player-
[19:52] <bekks> wad: Thats your personal decision.
[19:52] <wad> Well, yeah. I'm wondering if there are known issues. Currently reading the googles on the topic.
[19:53] <wad> I've got three profiles that I use every day, all the time. If I switch to Chrome, will those stick around? Each has its own set of pinned tabs, cookies, bookmarks, etc.
[19:53] <SchrodingersScat> wad: you can install the google-chrome next to chromium just fine, or remove one for the other, your choice.
[19:54] <wad> Oh, cool, so they can coexist!
[19:54] <bekks> wad: you have thre profiles for chromium, not for chrome.
[19:54] <wad> Ah, thanks for the clarificaiton.
[19:54] <bekks> *three
[19:54] <wad> Then I think what I'll do is install Chrome, and just use it for my music streaming stuff. :)
[19:55] <wad> (I wish they had a desktop client for Linux.)
[19:55] <SchrodingersScat> wad: I have a .config/chromium/ and a .cache/chromium, and presumably google-chrome would make a similar chrome directory.
[19:55] <wad> Thanks guys. Now I know that the two applications shouldn't conflict and fight with each other.
[19:57] <wad> Hmm. Chrome doesn't seem to be in the Software Center. Recommendations? Should I just download it from somewheres?
[19:57] <bekks> !chrome
[19:57] <wad> I'll just follow this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/510056/how-to-install-google-chrome
[19:57] <bekks> wad: https://askubuntu.com/questions/510056/how-to-install-google-chrome
[19:57] <SchrodingersScat> wad: correct, it's 3rd party, we don't officially support it afaik, can get a copy off google, it will/probably install a repo to keep it up to date when you update.
[19:57] <bekks> ya :)
[19:58] <wad> :)
[19:58] <picarda> Anyone use VIM for web development?
[19:58] <wad> picarda, I know people who do.
[19:58] <picarda> ok, I'm looking for an autocomplete plugin...
[19:59] <wad> picarda, I recommend webstorm, though. Vim is nice for some stuff, but an IDE is the Right Tool for this job.
[19:59] <wad> Sorry, can't help ya there.
[19:59] <picarda> thank you WAD
[20:04] <daniel331> hi all. ussually quite good at this but having a lot of trouble installing ubuntu on a friends ASUS laptop. after booting the USB installer, I get either dumped straight to a grub prompt or get a screen with the error "Booting Kernel Failed: Invalid Argument"
[20:04] <daniel331> Any idea what to do?
[20:04] <daniel331> (I have tried googling)
[20:04] <slifeet> Have you tried a reinstall? Also did the install have any errors pop up?
[20:05] <bekks> No need for reinstalling until the reason is known.
[20:05] <bekks> daniel331: Which kernel parameters do you use for booting, then?
[20:05] <supersmilers> is plymouth working in 16.04 daily build?
[20:06] <daniel331> I am installing a *new* linux installation. The error when booting from the USB installer is "Booting Kernel Failed: Invalid Argument". Or I can get a grub prompt from the USB by choosing a different option from the UEFI startup menu.
[20:06] <daniel331> (the system is running windows 8 atm, so its no wonder she wants it off..)
[20:06] <bekks> daniel331: Which kernel parameters do you use for booting, then?
[20:06] <daniel331> I wasnt given any option to enter kernel parameters
[20:07] <daniel331> (I can do that thru the UEFI interface is I knew which parameters to type, tho)
[20:07] <Surendil> daniel331, x64 or i686? have you checked that?
[20:08] <daniel331> its an i7
[20:08] <daniel331> aw shit the installer is amd64. reckon thats the problem?
[20:08] <bekks> daniel331: And are you using a 32bit or 64bit install medium?
[20:08] <supersmilers> anyone? I wanted to switch back to Ubuntu gnome on my old laptop from ubuntu mate
[20:08] <bekks> amd64 is 64bit. your cpu is 64bit.
[20:09] <wad> Awesome, this is working beautifully. Music is now in lossless highest-quality mode. :-D
[20:09] <daniel331> bekks: thats what I thought. so thats not the problem?
[20:10] <bekks> daniel331: Thats no problem.
[20:10] <daniel331> okay
[20:11] <Surendil> daniel331, check the bios for AHCI compatibility
[20:11] <supersmilers> is 16.04 good enough with working plymouth logo animation to try on my old laptop?
[20:12] <squinty> supersmilers,   install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" meta package via your fave installer (apt-get, synaptic, etc)
[20:12] <CPUSA> hello
[20:12] <ioria> daniel331, are you sure you are booting from usb ?
[20:12] <daniel331> okay so there is the option for "xHCI Pre-Boot Mode" shgould I have that enabled or disabled? It is enabled atm..
[20:13] <supersmilers> on 15.10? I'm right now on ubuntu mate 15.10
[20:13] <daniel331> yes ioria the only other OS plugged in is windows and I am definitly not booting windows when I see the grub prompt...
[20:13] <Surendil> daniel331, enabled, then it's ok
[20:13] <daniel331> and legacy USB support? Enabled?
[20:13] <daniel331> okay
[20:14] <daniel331> AH
[20:14] <daniel331> right
[20:14] <daniel331> would nomodeset help?
[20:15] <daniel331> so when I boot UEFI, I see the quick accessibility options thing with the option to change kernel boot params
[20:15] <supersmilers> I like to start fresh so I don't have to worry about other packages
[20:15] <daniel331> but then I get invalid kernel argument error
[20:16] <Surendil> supersmilers, then download ubuntu again
[20:16] <supersmilers> ok.
[20:16] <daniel331> I still get the "booting kernel failed: invalid argument" but iif I knew what to put into the options screen I guess I could change that
[20:16] <Surendil> supersmilers, ubuntu = gnome | kubuntu = kde | xubuntu = xfce
[20:17] <nolsen> How come doing echo "$IFACE" says nothing?
[20:17] <supersmilers> Isn't ubuntu = unity? Ubuntu gnome is a distro
[20:17] <nolsen> I followed the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AnonymizingNetworkMACAddresses and it isn't working.
[20:19] <Surendil> supersmilers, unity is a graphical shell for gnome
[20:19] <supersmilers> oh
[20:19] <funkiestj> hello!
[20:21] <funkiestj> Longtime FreeBSD user (but not administrator) at work.  Running my on Ubuntu VM at home.  What is best practice for my "daily work" account?  Can I use my account with "administrator" priviledge as my main account or should I be doing programming work in a  "standard" account?
[20:22] <funkiestj> I'm guessing "admin" is OK because root commands still requires sudo ...
[20:22] <bekks> funkiestj: All accounts are standard accounts, some of them just have the ability to use sudo.
[20:22] <funkiestj> thx bekks.
[20:24] <libman> I'm running Ubuntu without a lightdm or any other *dm.  Is there a way to set up auto-login (i.e. bypass console login / password)?
[20:25] <nolsen> How come doing echo "$IFACE" says nothing?
[20:25] <nolsen> I followed the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AnonymizingNetworkMACAddresses and it isn't working.

[20:27] <xangua> linux is everywhere
[20:27] <TheNH813> I'm talking to a user who I was helping set up PPPoE.
[20:27] <nolsen> Apparently nobody knows how to answer my question.
[20:27] <Seveas> libman: in /etc/init/tty1.conf, change /sbin/getty -8 38400 tty1 to /sbin/getty -8 -a yourusername 38400 tty1
[20:27] <Seveas> libman: see man getty
[20:27] <daniel331> apparently this is a problem which has been documented for arch and syslinux
[20:27] <daniel331> some bug in the installer?
[20:28] <daniel331> its gotta be as simple as changing the options tho?
[20:28] <ioria> daniel331, how did you do the usb ?
[20:28] <libman> Nevermind, found systemctl instructions on http://askubuntu.com/questions/679419/how-to-make-auto-login-work-in-ubuntu-no-display-manager about to try them out.
[20:28] <daniel331> dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdb
[20:28] <daniel331> medium was not mounted at the time
[20:28] <daniel331> md5sum is correct
[20:29] <daniel331> (NOT of=/dev/sdb1
[20:29] <Surendil> daniel331, try unetbooting
[20:30] <OerHeks> daniel331, did you 'sync' after dd?
[20:30] <Seveas> :q
[20:30] <daniel331> no. I will do that

[20:35] <funkiestj> ioria: thx.  I'm still trying to figure out the UI.
[20:35] <funkiestj> not sure how you folks address others with that "-> <b>name</b>" looking output
[20:36] <ioria> funkiestj, you mean autocomplete ?
[20:36] <funkiestj> maybe.
[20:37] <ioria> funkiestj,  type the first letters and then Tab

[20:41] <SchrodingersScat> wewve: oh, well, there's your problem, avconv -i "$" #"$" "$"
[20:41] <SchrodingersScat> wewve: should be "$i"
[20:49] <wewve> sorry..I couldnt read if you answered me..
[20:50] <avconv> I was just disconnected..repeat my question
[20:50] <SchrodingersScat> avconv: you need to make -i "$" to -i "$i" so you use your i variable
[20:50] <avconv>  I cant make avconv work to convert videos to mp3: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14534790 ? this was the command I used until now, but instantly it doesnt work anymore
[20:51] <avconv> SchrodingersScat..oh indeed!!
[20:51] <avconv> SchrodingersScat, so it was a command error..thank you so much!!
[20:51] <funkiestj> is there a way to see pastebin posts by a poster (e.g. me)?
[20:55] <akik> funkiestj: you can ask your client for the lastlog
[20:55] <funkiestj> akik, thx.
[20:56] <akik> on irssi: /lastlog -regexp funkiestj.*paste
[20:56] <akik> if you need them, i can put them to pastebin :)
[20:57] <funkiestj> I'm a long time user (not admin) on FreeBSD.  New to Ubuntu and all the tools here.  Just test driving things.
[20:57] <funkiestj> like pastebin, IRC et cetera.
[20:58] <funkiestj> ubuntu in virtualbox is pretty awesome.  The last time I used Linux at home I had to repartition disks and use a boot loader (ugh).
[20:58] <bekks> funkiestj: Works fine here, for years.
[21:05] <Cyber_Akuma> I tried using "universal usb installer" to put the Ubuntu iso on a usb drive, but I can't boot off of it. The ubuntu screen comes up, but when I choose "try ubuntu without installing" it just reboots
[21:06] <Alberto> Please, I need some help here.
[21:07] <akik> !ask
[21:07] <Surendil> Alberto, what's the problem?
[21:08] <Alberto> Surendil My wi-fi internet connection is very slow with Ubuntu 15.10
[21:09] <Alberto> Surendil In my laptop
[21:09] <souplady> When I attempt sudo apt-get for any package, it comes back with " e: unable to locate package". The laptop i am working on IS having an issue with the chipset, i am attempting to install new drivers for it. however it is currently connected via ethernet so i don't understand what the problem is. anyone can help me?
[21:10] <Alberto> Surendil I can't even download the hardinfo *.deb package
[21:10] <funkiestj>  souplady: I had the same problem last night on a fresh install.
[21:11] <CPUSA> @souplady, How new is your computer?
[21:11] <souplady> funkiestj: were you able to fix it?
[21:11] <Surendil> souplady, try apt-get update first
[21:11] <Bashing-om> souplady: What relaese ? ' cat/etc/issue' .
[21:11] <souplady> ok! i will try updating, it is a fresh install on a brand new coputer and i had forgotten to update
[21:11] <souplady> sudo apt-get update
[21:11] <Alberto> Surendil In order to find out which network card my computer has.
[21:11] <souplady> oops wrong window
[21:11] <funkiestj> souplady: sadly my solution was a reinstall of the ISO image.  I had only just tried an install so for me, reinstall was not a problem.  Strangely enough, reinstall fixed my problem.  I don't know why.
[21:11] <funkiestj> <-- ubuntu neophyte.
[21:12] <souplady> me too :^) its updating now but if that doesnt work ill try reinstalling, thx for the suggestion
[21:12] <funkiestj> data point -- update and dist-<something> did nothing to fix my problem but everything worked fine after the reinstall :^/
[21:13] <Alberto> I need help, please
[21:14] <Alberto> I don't want to go back to Windows :(
[21:14] <peaceful> Hi
[21:14] <ikonia> Alberto: just state your problem, if people can help, they will
[21:14] <akik> Alberto: have you tried to change the channel your wlan ap is on?
[21:14] <Alberto> akik Yes, I have. Still not working properly...
[21:15] <akik> Alberto: you can list your network devices with "sudo lshw -c network"
[21:15] <Alberto> akik Ok :)
[21:15] <CPUSA> how long will a apt-get dist-upgrade
[21:16] <CPUSA> * how long will a apt-get dist-upgrade take?
[21:16] <ikonia> few seconds
[21:16] <bekks> CPUSA: Depends on a gazillion of parameters.
[21:16] <ikonia> no more than 10 seconds
[21:16] <CPUSA> Okay
[21:16] <ikonia> for the average user
[21:16] <funkiestj> apt-get dist-upgrade took several minutes for me.
[21:16] <ikonia> the package install will take longer
[21:16] <ikonia> but the actual update and dep checks won't take long
[21:16] <CPUSA> Its because im using debian and Im trying to get the libdvdcss2 codecs
[21:17] <ikonia> then why are you asking in #ubuntu
[21:17] <ikonia> rather than #debian
[21:17] <CPUSA> so i added a repository to get it
[21:17] <ikonia> take it to the #debian channl please
[21:17] <CPUSA> because its empty and baren
[21:17] <ikonia> it's not
[21:17] <CPUSA> lol
[21:17] <Alberto> I've read Ubuntu 15.10 has problems with some wireless network cards...
[21:18] <ikonia> Alberto: don't think thats true, if linux supports it, it should be ok, there is a new intel card that needs a later kernel
[21:18] <akik> Alberto: to list the wireless networks your computer sees "sudo iwlist wlp4s0 scan" (replace wlp4s0 with your wireless interface from iwconfig)
[21:19] <peaceful> How can i downgrade xorg to 1.5 please?
[21:20] <peaceful> im going to install ubuntu 8.04
[21:20] <bekks> peaceful: Not supported since ages.
[21:20] <ikonia> peaceful: totally not supported, so good luck
[21:20] <peaceful> bekks: i know but at least ati catalyst works
[21:20] <Alberto> ikonia How could I find out whether Linux supports my network card or not?
[21:20] <ikonia> Alberto: what make/model is it ?
[21:20] <peaceful> can i install latest firefox on ubuntu 8.04/
[21:20] <Seveas> peaceful: no.
[21:20] <peaceful> ghh
[21:20] <Seveas> Neither can you get support for 8.04 in here.
[21:21] <ikonia> peaceful: it's unsupported, please don't ask for support
[21:21] <peaceful> bla bla
[21:21] <Alberto> I have to say, I did a couple of "tricks" to speed up the internet.
[21:22] <Alberto> connection
[21:22] <peaceful> stop crucifying me
[21:22] <ikonia> Alberto: answer the questions, what make/model is your card
[21:22] <ity9bers> !list
[21:22] <ikonia> peaceful: then don't ask questions that are not supported
[21:22] <peaceful> ikonia: i didnt know questions are now "supported" ?
[21:22] <Seveas> peaceful: we won't crucify you. Your lack of security updates will. Your system will be very vulnerable
[21:23] <ikonia> peaceful: they are about unsupported versions, as you've been told
[21:23] <peaceful> Seveas: thats least problem
[21:23] <Seveas> peaceful: yes, your other probelm will be finding anyone willing to support you :) Not even canonical will help you if you pay them.
[21:23] <Alberto> ikonia The thing is... It's a friend's laptop
[21:24] <ikonia> Alberto: that wasn't the question,
[21:24] <ikonia> Alberto: what make/model is it
[21:24] <ikonia> (the wireless card)
[21:24] <Alberto> ikonia Intel, I think
[21:24] <Alberto> The laptop is a HP
[21:24] <ikonia> Alberto: find out for sure,make and model
[21:24] <peaceful> Seveas: i came here in case someone willing to help me
[21:24] <ikonia> peaceful: sadly not, sorry
[21:24] <Seveas> peaceful: you're about 5 years too late for that
[21:25] <peaceful> not true
[21:25] <peaceful> I guess you need to know some commands
[21:25] <ikonia> peaceful: the distro is EOL, so it won't be discussed in here, sorry
[21:25] <peaceful> Im not even talking about distro
[21:25] <peaceful> My first question was how to downgrade xorg
[21:26] <ikonia> you are, you're talking about an EOL distro
[21:26] <ikonia> (EOL = end of life)
[21:26] <nicomachus> peaceful: it's an unsupported version. upgrade to a supported version and then you can get support
[21:26] <bba> Anyone have experience with getting new Intel i915 graphics working
[21:26] <ikonia> should work out of the box bba
[21:26] <peaceful> nicomachus: which is unsupported?
[21:27] <bba> I agree
[21:27] <ikonia> 8.04
[21:27] <nicomachus> peaceful: 14.04, 15.04 (for a few more days), and 15.10
[21:27] <nicomachus> are the only supported versions.
[21:27] <peaceful> im not talking about 8.04
[21:27] <peaceful> im asking how to donwgrade Xorg
[21:27] <Alberto> Ok, in the meantime, I can tell you I did what they say here----> http://askubuntu.com/questions/700284/slow-internet-connection-using-wifi-on-ubuntu-mate-15-10
[21:27] <ikonia> peaceful: on what version ?
[21:27] <peaceful> 15.04
[21:27] <ikonia> Alberto: not interested in that, interested in the make/model of the card
[21:27] <ikonia> peaceful: there isn't a lower package for 15.04
[21:27] <bekks> peaceful: MAybe you should state the actual problem behind that, which makes you willing to downgrade Xorg.
[21:27] <bba> I get a failed to add i915 component master (-19)
[21:28] <ikonia> bba: where ?
[21:28] <bba> in dmsg
[21:28] <peaceful> bekks: to use catalyst driver
[21:28] <ikonia> bba: but whats the problem /
[21:28] <nicomachus> peaceful: that driver should work fine with the current version of xorg in 15.04
[21:28] <bekks> peaceful: The old catalyst drivers arent supported any more I guess. So which hardware do you use?
[21:29] <bba> I have a pc with intel chipset and nvidia card, I'm trying to get video out of the built in graphics
[21:29] <Alberto> ikonia Unfortunately, I don't have that laptop here with me right now.
[21:29] <bekks> The new catalyst drivers work fine on recent versions of Xorg.
[21:29] <Alberto> :(
[21:29] <ikonia> Alberto: then there is no point doing anything more
[21:29] <ikonia> get the info, and come back
[21:29] <acovrig> I'm trying to do networking with qemu, I have br0 (eth1) I would like to bridge with, how do I specify which bridge to use?
[21:29] <ikonia> x2xx3x: use the bridge-utils commands
[21:30] <ikonia> oops
[21:30] <ikonia> or set it through virsh
[21:30] <ikonia> acovrig: use the bridge-utils commands
[21:30] <Bashing-om> bba: Hybrid graohics == nvidia-prime . ' dpkg -l nvidia-prime ' is it installed ?
[21:30] <acovrig> ikonia, what do you mean, brctl? I already have br0 and would like to use it
[21:31] <ikonia> acovrig: ok ?
[21:31] <ikonia> acovrig: what's stopping you ?
[21:31] <acovrig> ikonia, how do I specify (in the qemu-system-x86_64 command) which interface to use (br0)
[21:32] <ikonia> thats defined in your profiles, you should have defined networks
[21:32] <smartp0wne>  cya guys
[21:32] <ikonia> then you just name it as one of the argumentes
[21:32] <ikonia> arguments
[21:34] <acovrig> ikonia, I'm confused, if I use something like this: -device e1000,netdev=net0,mac=$macaddress -netdev tap,id=net0 (from http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Networking) how does it know which bridge to use?
[21:34] <ikonia> acovrig: it doesn't, you need to define a network and then call the name, you're specifying -netdev tap id=net0 so that will create a tap device based on your available network definitions
[21:36] <acovrig> ikonia, how about this: -device rtl8139,netdev=br0,mac=$blah; or do I need to let/have it create it's own virtual device then brctl addif to add it to br0?
[21:37] <ikonia> acovrig: so thats specifying a realtek device (???why ???) and then the bridge device, you'll do better having networks defined, but that should technically work
[21:38] <acovrig> ikonia, what do you mean have them defined?
[21:38] <ikonia> you can define networks, such as "internal test" that have ranges defined, devices defined etc, and just reference them
[21:39] <ikonia> you may want to look at virsh
[21:40] <bba> so, no one any idea about i915 graphics?
[21:40] <ikonia> bba: you're not really using an i915 are you using, using one of the optimus video cards with intel/nvidia ?
[21:41] <bba> I have new skylake cpu, afaik its i915, but whatever it is its not detected
[21:41] <ikonia> then where is the nvidia component coming in ?
[21:41] <ikonia> you said it has intel and nvidia
[21:41] <bba> I have an geforce gtx 750 too
[21:41] <ikonia> is it a dual card, or what ?
[21:42] <bba> It is a desktop pc
[21:42] <ikonia> bba: so what are you actually trying to do ?
[21:42] <bba> get graphics out of the intel chipset graphics 'part'
[21:42] <ikonia> bba: ok, what's the problem then ?
[21:43] <bba> if i do a sudo lshw the only display listed is the nvidia one
[21:43] <acovrig> ikonia, I'm using virsh for my other VMs, but I don't think I can use virsh if I'm doing a VGA PCI passthrough, so I'm running qemu manually for this VM
[21:43] <Ubuntuwybdgdg> Have Ubuntu 15:10 encrypted install. After install of nvidia drivers can't enter password in unlock box?
[21:43] <ikonia> acovrig: I thought you could, I wouldn't be my life on it though
[21:43] <ikonia> bba: because it's part of the cpu, not a seperate device
[21:43] <Ubuntuwybdgdg> It shows up top left corner of screen in plain text
[21:44] <Alberto> Ok, my friend just came over with his computer, I did "iwlist wlan0 scan" and this is what I get: wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning.
[21:44] <Ubuntuwybdgdg> How can I add quiet splash to boot option?
[21:44] <ikonia> Alberto: not what was asked of you
[21:44] <bba> Ok so regardless of it not being listed as a display I want to get graphics out of it
[21:44] <ikonia> bba: ok - so what's the problem ?
[21:45] <Alberto> ikonia I'm sorry, I don't know how to find out about the make/model of the network card.
[21:45] <ikonia> Alberto: look it up on the website of the laptop
[21:45] <bba> If I connect something to the port I don't get any display
[21:45] <ikonia> Alberto: or do an "lspci"
[21:46] <ikonia> or lshw
[21:46] <ikonia> bba: what port ?
[21:46] <bba> I'm suspicious of the warning in the dmesg "failed to add i915 component master (-19)"
[21:46] <ikonia> bba: first thing to check, is the video card enabled in the bios ?
[21:46] <Alberto> ikonia Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8188EE Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
[21:47] <bba> The 15pin vga connector on the main board
[21:47] <ikonia> bba: is it enabled in the bios ?
[21:47] <ikonia> Alberto: so check out if that / how that device is supported in linux, most realtek's will work for basic wifi needs
[21:47] <Alberto> ikonia How could I do that?
[21:48] <ikonia> the web ?
[21:48] <ikonia> as I said, most realteks will be fine for the average persons wifi needs
[21:48] <ikonia> there are a few odd ball models which don't work properly
[21:48] <Alberto> ikonia Ok, thank you very much :)
[21:49] <bba> Can I find out / integorate the bios once the system is booted?
[21:49] <ikonia> (from memory)
[21:49] <ikonia> bba: easier to just do it in the bios
[21:50] <bba> I wish it were, there is no single tick-box saying "use built in graphics".
[21:50] <ikonia> no, you have to look
[21:50] <Cyber_Akuma> Odd..... I am installing ubuntu on a VM and it didn't ask me which harddrive to choose, nor did it give me much options, it only had the option to format the drive... and it didn'
[21:50] <Cyber_Akuma> t specify WHICH drive
[21:53] <Ubuntuwybdgdg> Anyone?
[21:59] <Colbykz> Hey guys, I'm trying to setup a vpn tunnel, i use public wifi alot and would like to encrypt my connection
[22:01] <nicomachus> Colbykz: great. do you have an issue?
[22:03] <bramgn> Colbykz: openvpn
[22:05] <bba> well now the pc isn't booting at all having changed the bios settings for video
[22:05] <bba> is there a way from finding once the pc has booted if it things in has built in graphics?
[22:05] <bba> *thinks
[22:06] <Colbykz> I set up a computer running Ubuntu 14.04, but have had no luck configuring the server to allow for a ptpp connection
[22:12] <Colbykz> I am currently trying to set up a Ubuntu PTPP VPN Server.
[22:12] <Colbykz>  I am able to get my client pc, running Windows 10, to connect to the VPN server, the pc even claims to have an internet connection, but when I attempt to use my web browser there is no web connection... interestingly enough, the client pc can still use TeamViewer to remotely manage the Ubuntu VPN Server.
[22:12] <Colbykz>  Best I can tell this is not a DNS issue, the client pc can ping IP addresses beyond the VPN network while connected to the VPN, I can ping 74.125.224.72 (google), but I cannot connect to http://74.125.224.72/ via my web browser.
[22:12] <Colbykz>  Thanks in advance for reading this, I'm new to Linux so I'm not entirely sure what log's I should post or that are relevant, and I am more than willing to furnish anything needed.
[22:12] <nicomachus> I wouldn't recommend PTPP.... not secure.
[22:12] <nicomachus> use openvpn
[22:19] <bramgn> Colbykz: invest learning how to run openvpn, it will pay off in the end, and besides, it's not difficult to set up at all.
[22:26] <Colbykz> See what my concern is that i'll put the time into trying to configure open vpn and end up with the same connectivity issue.. I may as well give it a shot and see what I come up with
[22:28] <bob2021> heyyy... is tj- or k1rk here? :)
[22:28] <xangua> !ask
[22:28] <bob2021> xangua:  this is about an issue where i've been talking to them on an ongoing basis for almost a week now
[22:30] <xangua> bob2021: sounds like a forum would be a better place to follow up, good luck
[22:34] <blurkis> how come I can view images from /static/ but not /media/ though both are set in settings.py?  Trying to view them from html in a template
[22:34] <Delta706> I have a terminal application. I would like to know if there is a smart shell or terminal which can do keystrokes according to a program. Like it could do "sleep 60" and return. Then wait and do other keystrokes
[22:35] <blurkis> wrong channel for me , hahah
[22:37] <ben_> anyone on ubuntu MATE?
[22:37] <akik> Delta706: expect is one
[22:38] <Delta706> "expect" is an automatable terminal?
[22:38] <Cyber_Akuma> My laptop won't boot into ubuntu on a usb drive. It just boots into windows
[22:38] <akik> Delta706: it can automate your script
[22:39] <k1l> Cyber_Akuma: see the bios if its disabled there
[22:39] <Cyber_Akuma> I have been ALL over the bios
[22:39] <Cyber_Akuma> I even set the harddrive as my last boot device and manually tell it to boot from usb when it's booting from a boot menu when you press f12 on post
[22:39] <Cyber_Akuma> it STILL boots into windows
[22:40] <BriZZell> yo new friends
[22:41] <Cyber_Akuma> I tried UEFI mode, enither windows or ubuntu could boot that way
[22:41] <BriZZell> anyone using a android emulator for a device NOT development
[22:41] <Bashing-om> Cyber_Akuma: That indicates that no bootloader is installed onto the USB drive .
[22:41] <Surendil> Cyber_Akuma, does it work on another computer?
[22:41] <Cyber_Akuma> And I tried the os type option in both "Windows 8 64" and "other os" mode
[22:42] <Cyber_Akuma> I'll try another comuter
[22:42] <Cyber_Akuma> I use da vm to install it to the usb drive
[22:42] <Cyber_Akuma> Basically, booted the VM using the ubuntu live cd, and told it to install ubuntu on the usb drive
[22:42] <k1l> Cyber_Akuma: uh. are you sure the usb stick is ok? does it work on another pc?
[22:43] <Cyber_Akuma> I''l try it on another pc
[22:43] <Cyber_Akuma> But when I tried a liveusb I had a similar problem
[22:43] <Cyber_Akuma> It gave me the ubuntu boot options screen
[22:43] <Cyber_Akuma> but when I chose "try ubuntu without installing" it just rebooted into windows
[22:48] <Guest16644> Hello, can i use a ps3 controller on linux?
[22:49] <xangua> Guest16644: should work out of the box
[22:50] <andrew> hi
[22:52] <BriZZell> Guest16644 how are you plugging it in (im lay but curious )
[22:53] <kinker31> Heya!
[22:54] <anabain> Cyber_Akuma, have you googled about this issue? Which laptop do you own?
[22:55] <Cyber_Akuma> Lenovo G780
[22:55] <Cyber_Akuma> And I tried gooling, coulden't find specific information

[23:01] <anabain> Cyber_Akuma, not your model, but also a Lenovo, you could try this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/122566/live-usb-not-booting-in-lenovo-ideapad-z570?rq=1
[23:01] <k1l> Cyber_Akuma: make sure the usb stick is working ok.
[23:02] <k1l> Cyber_Akuma: i suspect it wasnt made right.
[23:03] <anabain> kll, agree with you
[23:05] <anabain> Cyber_Akuma, what distro are you trying to boot?
[23:06] <Dr4kk3N> yo
[23:06] <Alberto> Hello everyone
[23:07] <BriZZell> Im looking to run Android apps on my PC what should i get (thats free)
[23:08] <Alberto> My internet speed is too slow with Ubuntu 15.10. I don't know how to download or install RTL8188EE driver.
[23:08] <jt_> I'm trying to install 15.10 via a usb created with startup disk creator. Installing on a mac. When i check the disk I verify the disk it fails with 2 errors. The iso passes md5sum and I've attempted creating multiple usb sticks
[23:08] <jt_> what can i do?
[23:09] <anabain> Cyber_Akuma, I assume you've checked the following link which, btw, shows that your laptop isn't very linux-friendly, I'm afraid: http://www.linlap.com/lenovo_g780
[23:09] <Alberto> I'm getting 100% Wi-Fi signal, however, the internet is not working well...
[23:10] <jt_> @BriZZell Android SDK (AVD manager) with Intel Haxm
[23:10] <Alberto> I've got another computer with a wired connection and Ubuntu 15.10.
[23:10] <kinker31> Okay, so my Windows partition is over at sda4, my EFI boot partition is over at sda2. How would I make the grub menu entry for Windows 10?
[23:10] <Alberto> This last works fine.
[23:10] <BriZZell> Alberto im having the same prob - you got a usb adaptor right
[23:11] <BriZZell> jt_ which is the name - sorry im new
[23:12] <Alberto> BriZZell No, it's actually an onboard wi-fi card.
[23:12] <jt_> BriZZell: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#Other
[23:13] <BriZZell> well ive been dealing with it in ubuntu and mint - no net but Face Book works lo-not-l
[23:14] <jt_> BriZZell: Once installed you want to look for Android Virtual Device manager. Performance is typically poor. Haxm will help. Virtual devices have no play store so you have to sideload everything.
[23:14] <BriZZell> ooooooh geeezz
[23:14] <BriZZell> whats haxm and what is side loading
[23:16] <BriZZell> how can i load the link you gave threw terminal
[23:16] <jt_> Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager for Intel processors. Sideloading is a method of transfering an apk to a device and installing it via adb (Android Debug Bridge, a tool that comes with the Android SDK)
[23:17] <jt_> I wouldn't waste your time
[23:17] <BriZZell> ok ive never loaded from a zip
[23:22] <BriZZell> ahhh no
[23:37] <BriZZell> anyone running cinnamon
[23:37] <xangua> ! Ask
[23:40] <BriZZell> i got cinnamon running on my ubuntu anyone doing the same?
[23:41] <chamunks> So I destroyed my php5 installation trying to downgrade to php5.5 again.
[23:41] <chamunks> I am getting errors trying to load PhpMyAdmin now trying to load https://servercubes.net/phpmyadmin/ it is asking for php5-json to be enabled but its not in mods-available.
[23:41] <chamunks> Purging the package and reinstalling it isn't working either.
[23:43] <BriZZell> forgive me im new but what is a php5 and whats wrong with the upgrade
[23:46] <K1rk> bob2017
[23:46] <K1rk> Pong
[23:46] <bob2017> k1rk!!!
[23:46] <bob2017> how are you?
[23:47] <K1rk> bob2017, I just spent 2 hrs correcting my colleague's unspeakably dumb mistake.
[23:47] <K1rk> bob2017, he decided to restore the "ibdata1" file in /var/lib/mysql from a week old backup, causing InnoDB to go totally out of sync and corrupt all the databases on a server.
[23:47] <K1rk> And of course the week old backup was the most recent one we had...
[23:47] <K1rk> *slap*
[23:48] <bob2017> i had it running for a single boot, fyi — if I disabled nouveau, but left radeon on, and chrooted in to install sshd before the first boot, i was able to get to a command line.  then, it wasn’t detecting any monitors.  but as long as i unplugged them all, and plugged htem in one at a time, it saw them as soon as they plugged-in.  now its back to not booting, probably bc I installed the nvidia driver :p
[23:48] <K1rk> Hehe sounds like you've been having a lot of fun bob2017
[23:49] <bob2017> k1rk: actually it kinda of suckis
[23:49] <bob2017> sucks
[23:51] <GrimTreaper> hello
[23:54] <GrimTreaper> Wondering if any one can help with my current issue here ? i am a beginner with ubuntu 14.04, trying to run wine on it, Youtube helped, but its still not working properly.
[23:55] <GrimTreaper> any knowledge on the subject would be usefull... i am willing to use other chat software if needed.
[23:56] <k1l> GrimTreaper: first: youtube howtos are bad. better rely on official documentation. then: wine is not exactly windows. so there might be some things to do before a program runs. best is to look into the wine appdb
[23:56] <k1l> !wine | GrimTreaper
[23:57] <GrimTreaper> Ah.. thank you
