[00:03] <administrador> hola
[00:04] <administrador> you speak spanish?
[00:04] <k1l> !es | administrador
[00:04] <administrador> hello
[00:05] <administrador> hi
[00:05] <administrador> ping hardbot
[00:07] <nicomachus> can I direct different programs to different audio outputs?
[00:10] <bramgn> nicomachus: yes with pavucontrol
[00:11] <nicomachus> bramgn: I was looking at that, but having trouble getting it to start over ssh even with X. any CLI options?
[00:15] <nicomachus> I get this error: https://imgur.com/5BsQayO
[00:15] <nicomachus> and if I run "start-pulseaudio-x11" manually I get a connection refused error.
[00:16] <kinker31> !ask What does a EFI Windows 10 grub menu entry look like?
[00:16] <nicomachus> here: https://paste.ubuntu.com/14539240/
[00:16] <kinker31> !ask help
[00:16] <nicomachus> kinker31: no need for !ask.
[00:17] <EriC^^> sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified
[00:17] <k1l> kinker31: run a "sudo update-grub" that should find the installed windows
[00:17] <EriC^^> oops
[00:17] <EriC^^> kinker31: Boot0000* Windows Boot Manager	HD(1,800,96000,9d628cfc-52b9-460d-bfdc-53596959b30c)File(\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi)RC
[00:18] <llldino> I tried at one point to get windows 10 to work off of grub, but I never could. update-grub refuses to probe it properly
[00:18] <EriC^^> kinker31: oh, grub menu, thought you said boot menu
[00:19] <llldino> Here's my custom entry : http://paste.debian.net/366225/ Even that won't boot it
[00:19] <kinker31> Yeah, i took a look in grub.cfg, and I didn't see an entry for Windows Boot Manager in there.
[00:19] <EriC^^> kinker31: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14539279/
[00:20] <EriC^^> llldino: why wouldn't it, all update-grub does is look for bootmgfw.efi on fat32 partitions
[00:20] <k1l> kinker31: did you run a "sudo update-grub"?
[00:20] <llldino> Idl, it doesn't find it at all
[00:21] <llldino> Idk*
[00:21] <kinker31> Yep.
[00:21] <kinker31> Ran it before I opened the file.
[00:22] <EriC^^> llldino: can you pastebin sudo parted -l ?
[00:22] <EriC^^> kinker31: can you pastebin it as well?
[00:22] <kinker31> What, grub.cfg?
[00:22] <EriC^^> no, sudo parted -l
[00:23] <kinker31> Oh!
[00:23] <kinker31> Alrighty!
[00:24] <kinker31> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14539354/
[00:24] <llldino> EriC^^, http://paste.debian.net/366226/
[00:24] <llldino> Windows is on /dev/sdb
[00:26] <llldino> I tried getting it to work, then I gave up and now I just boot it from BIOS, but It would be nice if grub behaved properly
[00:26] <llldino> Not that I ever boot windows anyways q:
[00:26] <EriC^^> llldino: can you type cat /etc/fstab | grep /boot/efi ?
[00:27] <k1l> kinker31: why dont you ask in #archlinux ?
[00:27] <llldino> EriC^^, The boot/efi isn't in my fstab
[00:27] <kinker31> Actually, my "Arch basic data" is my Ubuntu partition.
[00:27] <EriC^^> llldino: oh, linux isn't installed in uefi mode, it's in legacy mode
[00:27] <k1l> kinker31: come on :/
[00:27] <EriC^^> that's why it doesn't pick it up
[00:28] <EriC^^> k1l: i think he's telling the truth
[00:28] <EriC^^> cause arch doesn't have update-grub
[00:29] <kinker31> Arch was the first distro I tried, and the partition name just kinda stuck when installing other distros.
[00:29] <llldino> EriC^^, It is? Now i'm confused
[00:29] <EriC^^> llldino: you can convert the install to uefi if you want
[00:29] <kinker31> At least thats what i think happened.
[00:29] <EriC^^> yeah, it's using a msdos partition table, which is odd for uefi, usually it uses gpt
[00:30] <EriC^^> llldino: type ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi , it would confirm that it's in uefi if the dir exists
[00:31] <EriC^^> kinker31: can you also type ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi ?
[00:31] <llldino> No such file or dir
[00:31] <EriC^^> llldino: it's in legacy mode then
[00:32] <llldino> I wonder if that's because I used the builtin partitioner on the debian instasller. I didn't see an option for gpt
[00:32] <kinker31> Do you want me to put the result in a pastebin too?
[00:32] <llldino> I might have used fdisk to partition too, I can't remember :x
[00:32] <EriC^^> kinker31: it's ok, we only need to see if the dir exists or not
[00:33] <EriC^^> llldino: what laptop do you have?
[00:33] <llldino> Custom tower
[00:34] <EriC^^> well, right now at least it's a nice standalone working system
[00:35] <EriC^^> if you have a bad implementation of uefi, then you'd need to switch the efi files to get it to boot linux, and then if you remove the linux drive, you won't be able to boot windows right off the bat
[00:35] <kinker31> drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 0 Jan 16 14:01 /sys/firmware/efi
[00:35] <EriC^^> you could try using the windows efi real quick to see if the uefi likes booting linux though, it's pretty easy
[00:36] <Asta666> heey somebody can help me testing torchat?
[00:36] <nicomachus> Asta666: try #freenode
[00:36] <EriC^^> you just add /boot/efi as a mountpoint for the windows efi partition, and the install the grub-efi package, then you'd get grub if the uefi implementation was good and you can boot windows from there
[00:36] <EriC^^> kinker31: ok, you're using uefi
[00:37] <EriC^^> kinker31: what does sudo os-prober give you?
[00:37] <llldino> EriC^^, /boot/efi is on the windows disk?
[00:37] <EriC^^> i wonder if it doesn't like that it's a fat16 and not fat32 and that's why it's not checking it, it's odd
[00:37] <kinker31> Nothing.
[00:37] <EriC^^> kinker31: is the windows file there? type ls -l /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
[00:38] <Asta666> nicomachus thanks I will do just that
[00:38] <kinker31> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1289424 Jan 16 13:15 /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
[00:38] <EriC^^> llldino: well, there's an efi partition on the windows disk, you could use that just to see if the uefi will boot linux efi, cause some uefi are picky about that and only boot windows efi
[00:39] <EriC^^> llldino: if you do that, you wouldn't be able to boot linux without the windows disk, but if it likes booting it, then you can create an efi partition on the linux disk and use that as /boot/efi
[00:39] <EriC^^> and have 2 standalone uefi installs that work independently
[00:39] <EriC^^> kinker31: ok, so the file's there
[00:41] <EriC^^> it looks like this is the file os-prober uses to find the efi partition /usr/share/os-prober/common.sh
[00:42] <llldino> I'll be back, i'm going to try it
[00:42] <EriC^^> llldino: ok, if you do add the mount to /etc/fstab, before you install grub-efi you need to sudo modprobe efivars
[00:43] <EriC^^> so it adds that /sys/firmware/efi dir that efibootmgr uses
[00:43] <welovfree> How can I monitor RAM usage? How much memory I'm consuming and how much still free.
[00:44] <k1l> welovfree: "free -m"
[00:44] <nicomachus> welovfree: also htop
[00:44] <k1l> welovfree: and see linuxatemyram.com for the results
[00:49] <llldino> EriC^^, Okay, so I can boot windows 10 using uefi, by doing a manual boot override on my BIOS. I don't understand what you were saying before
[00:50] <EriC^^> llldino: ok, if you edit /etc/fstab and add an entry for the windows efi partition, and then install grub-efi, you'll have converted the install to uefi
[00:50] <llldino> Converted my debian install?
[00:50] <EriC^^> and then when you get grub, you can boot windows from it
[00:50] <EriC^^> yeah
[00:51] <llldino> Oh I see, alright hang tright for a sec
[00:51] <EriC^^> there's an issue though llldino
[00:51] <EriC^^> some uefi don't like booting anything other than the windows file
[00:52] <EriC^^> do you have a live usb first?
[00:52] <llldino> What is the uefi? I think that's where i'm getting confused? Is it part of my motherboard or does it live on the Windows EFI partition
[00:52] <llldino> Yeah I can reverse what I did thats no big deal
[00:52] <EriC^^> the uefi is the bios
[00:52] <EriC^^> ok, cool
[00:53] <llldino> My motherboard is fairly new, and she's been good to me so far, so hopefully it goes okay
[00:53] <EriC^^> so first you need to edit /etc/fstab and add an entry for the efi partition you'll be using, let me show the entry i have in my fstab
[00:53] <EriC^^> UUID=9094-CDF4	/boot/efi	vfat	defaults	0	1
[00:53] <EriC^^> yeah
[00:54] <llldino> I'm using the PARTUUID as the UUID right?
[00:54] <llldino> Oh no sorry my bad
[00:54] <llldino> Theres an 8 bit hex number i'm using right?
[00:55] <EriC^^> yeah
[00:56] <EriC^^> kinker31: you there?
[00:57] <EriC^^> llldino: after you save it, create the /boot/efi dir
[00:57] <EriC^^> then try sudo mount -a
[00:57] <llldino> Okay
[00:58] <llldino> Okay that worked
[00:58] <llldino> "/dev/sdb2 on /boot/efi type vfat (rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=utf8,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro)"
[00:58] <EriC^^> ok
[00:59] <EriC^^> now you need to modprobe efivars cause grub will need it
[00:59] <EriC^^> try sudo modprobe efivars
[00:59] <EriC^^> it should populate /sys/firmware/efi now i think
[00:59] <llldino> "modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'efivars': No such device"
[01:00] <llldino> There's also efivarfs
[01:00] <kinker31> Yeah.
[01:01] <kinker31> Did i miss something?
[01:01] <EriC^^> llldino: ok, it's ok grub can still install, but when it tries using efibootmgr to add the uefi boot entry to the list of os's it will fail
[01:01] <EriC^^> llldino: try sudo apt-get install grub-efi-amd64-signed
[01:02] <llldino> I already installed it, yeah
[01:02] <EriC^^> llldino: ok, it failed at the end?
[01:02] <llldino> No, I got the package okay
[01:02] <EriC^^> kinker31: did you make a windows menu entry?
[01:03] <EriC^^> ok, cool
[01:03] <kinker31> Not yet.
[01:03] <EriC^^> try ls -l /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu
[01:03] <EriC^^> llldino: ^ see if grubx64.efi etc are there
[01:04] <llldino> I should add that I installed grub-efi before I edited fstab and mounted with mount -a
[01:05] <llldino> ls -a /boot/efi/EFI returns ".  ..  Boot  Microsoft"
[01:05] <llldino> Oh my bad, it's in the subdir Boot
[01:05] <EriC^^> kinker31: if you use mine and switch hd0,gpt1 with hd0,gpt2 and change 9094-CDF4 in all places with whatever sudo blkid /dev/sda2 gives you it should work
[01:06] <EriC^^> kinker31: can you type sudo blkid -p /dev/sda ?
[01:06] <kinker31> Nice.
[01:06] <EriC^^> llldino: Boot?
[01:06] <EriC^^> that's odd
[01:06] <llldino> I'm on debian I should add
[01:06] <EriC^^> it should be under /boot/efi/EFI
[01:06] <EriC^^> ok, try sudo efibootmgr -v
[01:06] <llldino> Yeah it is, /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi
[01:06] <EriC^^> oh, that's the windows file
[01:07] <EriC^^> we need grubx64.efi or shimx64.efi
[01:07] <EriC^^> llldino: try sudo grub-install
[01:07] <llldino> efibootmgr -vL: "efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system."
[01:07] <EriC^^> llldino: try without giving grub-install any device
[01:08] <llldino> I need a device for grub-install
[01:08] <llldino> Oh, yeah it's bitching it wants one
[01:08] <EriC^^> nope, for uefi you shouldn't
[01:08] <EriC^^> oh, then grub-efi isn't installed
[01:08] <kinker31> /dev/sda: PTUUID="1d203556-2802-481e-b06f-9ecaf9f74de0" PTTYPE="gpt"
[01:08] <EriC^^> try sudo apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64-signed ( or so, it might be different on debian )
[01:09] <llldino> "grub-efi-amd64 is already the newest version."
[01:09] <EriC^^> kinker31: ok
[01:09] <llldino> Okay hold on
[01:11] <llldino> Nothing in EFI
[01:12] <EriC^^> llldino: ok, try booting the live usb in uefi mode, and then you can chroot and install grub
[01:12] <llldino> Also, Is it bossible I have a 32 bit version of grub on a 64 bit platform? There's a dir under /boot/grub named i386-pc
[01:12] <EriC^^> it has to be in uefi mode though
[01:12] <MDTech> hello
[01:13] <llldino> Install grub onto /dev/sda?
[01:13] <EriC^^> llldino: no to the efi partition on /dev/sdb2
[01:14] <llldino> Oh I see where this is going
[01:15] <llldino> But..I want my Windows to be Independant of my Linux, and I want grub on the same disk Linux is on S:
[01:15] <MDTech> I have a 3TB hard drive (3-4 months old) from a Windows PC connected to an enclosure. This enclosure works just fine with other hard drives (just tested) but I can't mount any partitions of the drive
[01:15] <MDTech> here is the `parted /dev/sdb print` output http://pastebin.com/raw/Uwgjm4Fw
[01:15] <EriC^^> llldino: yeah, i agree with you, my intention is to see if the uefi will boot the linux efi without any problems
[01:15] <llldino> Okay, give me a sec
[01:15] <k1l> MDTech: windows doesnt do a real shutdown. so the partitions are not fine to be mounted.
[01:16] <MDTech> For some reason it gives an incorrect SIZE Disk /dev/sdb: 802GB
[01:16] <k1l> MDTech: uh, but that seems like some other issue
[01:16] <k1l> MDTech: what is on that disk?
[01:16] <MDTech> k1l: exactly. the problem you said is simply fixed with `ntfsfix`
[01:16] <MDTech> buncha music and stuff
[01:16] <k1l> MDTech: i mean partition setup
[01:17] <MDTech> the partitions that parted show are correct
[01:17] <MDTech> hence in the paste
[01:17] <k1l> MDTech: i am not sure if "msdos" can handle 3TB disks. shouldnt this be a gpt disk=
[01:18] <MDTech> isn't msdos only limited in partition size not in drive size?
[01:18] <k1l> MDTech: is this some sort of special setup from windows? or raid/fakeraid/...
[01:18] <MDTech> no raid or anything
[01:19] <daniel3331> so, we finally installed ubuntu, but now it wont boot. we are trying to dual boot (cause files not backed up yet from the windows partition) but windows keeps loading. grub never comes up to boot linux...
[01:20] <MDTech> partition 1 is definitely Windows and partition 3 is definitely my music and stuff
[01:20] <anabain> what is the command that shows at the server, which client hosts have *currently* mounted a server's nfs share?
[01:20] <MDTech> not sure about 2...
[01:20] <ballmer> there's some kind of glitch in ubuntu 15.10's installation that prevents booting on some uefi systems
[01:20] <daniel3331> ballmer: was that directed at me?
[01:20] <ballmer> yes
[01:20] <daniel3331> oh. okay. any solutions?
[01:20] <ballmer> i installed xubuntu instead, then unity
[01:21] <daniel3331> (thanks btw)
[01:21] <ballmer> someone suggested that
[01:21] <daniel3331> okay well actually this is ubuntu gnome but the people in here are more helpful...
[01:21] <ballmer> you can install gnome 3 in xubuntu as a 2nd de
[01:21] <MDTech> k1l: This drive boots just fine in a windows machine
[01:21] <ballmer> just don't uninstall it or else something might break
[01:22] <MDTech> as in windows that is installed on it boots fine
[01:22] <daniel3331> but xubuntu is fine?
[01:22] <ballmer> daniel3331, yes, there is apparently an unresolved ubuntu 15.10 but concerning uefi
[01:22] <ballmer> bug
[01:23] <daniel3331> Damn
[01:23] <daniel3331> And reiinstalling grub from the instasll media wont help?
[01:23] <ballmer> i didn't try to rescue it, that might work
[01:24] <EriC^^> daniel3331: ballmer what bug?
[01:24] <kinker31> Heya. When I ran the menu entry, it said that a couple of sectors over at hd1 couldn't be read, and that 1d203556-2802-481e-b06f-9ecaf9f74de wasn't a device.
[01:24] <ballmer> there was a bug that someone closed about uefi, but it's still popping up
[01:24] <EriC^^> kinker31: can you paste the entry you added and sudo blkid ?
[01:24] <ballmer> it was closed in november
[01:25] <EriC^^> i think there was a bug where efibootmgr put the same entry or something when upgrading to it or something
[01:25] <EriC^^> remember reading it a couple days ago
[01:25] <EriC^^> any link?
[01:27] <ballmer> this bug for elementary OS is related to ubuntu and is still open https://bugs.launchpad.net/elementaryos/+bug/1492256
[01:29] <k1l> ballmer: we cant fix elementaryOS bugs
[01:30] <llldino> EriC^^, I get this "http://paste.debian.net/366237
[01:30] <llldino> Upon trying to grub-install /dev/sdb2
[01:30] <ballmer> it said it affects ubuntu and is "unassigned" by ubuntu
[01:30] <EriC^^> llldino: it's still trying to use grub legacy
[01:30] <EriC^^> llldino: are you in the live usb right now?
[01:30] <ballmer> i remember seeing an ubuntu bug like that closed in november
[01:30] <llldino> Notice on line 1 it says installing for i386, what gives?
[01:31] <llldino> No i'm not
[01:31] <EriC^^> ballmer: thanks
[01:31] <ballmer> elementary has a fix
[01:31] <EriC^^> llldino: oh, you need to boot into the live usb, so you have the efivars
[01:32] <EriC^^> it has to be booted in uefi mode
[01:32] <llldino> What has to be booted, the live USB? There's no option to boot it in uefi mode
[01:32] <EriC^^> llldino: is secureboot disabled?
[01:33] <llldino> No it is not
[01:33] <EriC^^> try to disable it and check if you can change the uefi boot order to have the usb first
[01:33] <llldino> I don't have to change boot order, I have an override option that directly boots into that
[01:34] <llldino> Anyways, i'll try give me a sec
[01:34] <eddiezub> hello guys
[01:38] <hinderaker> I know this might not be the right channel to ask this question, but its the best I got. Where would I host my ubuntu server (offcourse) to get the best ping from both Europe and USA. Would New York be the best place? (More specific best ping between Norway and Pittsburg).
[01:38] <imnichol> I've got an LXC question: I used "lxc launch" to start a new instance of a container, but it appears that command doesn't automatically set up a network connection
[01:39] <imnichol> Am I missing something?
[01:39] <imnichol> Or if that is correct, how do I go about setting up a network connection
[01:40] <daniel3331> oh lawd
[01:40] <daniel3331> my colleage did a sudo rm /* on an important server at work. we have no backlups
[01:40] <daniel3331> I thought this was the kind of thing you only read about on /.
[01:41] <hinderaker> daniel3331: rm is harmeless. Just unplug the disk and any recovery software will find everything.
[01:42] <nicomachus> daniel3331: that was incredibly stupid of him.
[01:42] <nicomachus> but unless you're looking for support solutions, I suggest taking the chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:43] <nicomachus> and unless he used -rf on that rm command, the damage is minimal.
[01:43] <bob2017> k1rk or tj- ?
[01:44] <nicomachus> bob2017: got a question?
[01:44] <bob2017> nicomachus: there’s been a whole saga, i’ve been talking to them about it for a copule of days
[01:45] <nicomachus> ah. I haven't seen TJ- today, but k1l is around someplace.
[01:46] <kinker31> This might take a little while, Wi-Fi's not being cooperative with me.
[01:52] <kinker31> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14540299/
[01:53] <llldino> Geez, what a nightmare. So I turned secure boot off, and I have something called "CSM, or compatibility stiorage manager where it selects if it should be UEFI or legacy automatically
[01:54] <EriC^^> yes turn csm off
[01:54] <llldino> So I selected UEFI only, and both my live disk and my deb install dissapeared
[01:54] <llldino> From boot order
[01:55] <Obscurity> hey how do you disable authentication password for software its quite annoying
[01:55] <fullstack> hi, to make ubuntu-14.04.3-server-amd64.iso bootable on a USB thumb drive, do I just dd if=isofile of=/dev/sdb ?
[01:55] <k1l> Obscurity: you mean sudo?
[01:56] <EriC^^> fullstack: yeah, use bs=4M though
[01:56] <k1l> fullstack: yes, but make sure sdb is your usb pendrive and not another hdd or such.
[01:56] <EriC^^> and run sync afterwards, or umount the usb
[01:56] <Obscurity> hmm i don't want to type in a password every time i wish to install some thing
[01:56] <fullstack> ok thx
[01:56] <EriC^^> llldino: so you couldn't boot the live usb?
[01:56] <Obscurity> am using ubuntu 14.04
[01:56] <k1l> Obscurity: the terminal doens ask for every sudo. it keeps the password for some minutes
[01:56] <k1l> *doesnt
[01:57] <llldino> EriC^^, I could not boot the live CD in UEFI mode
[01:57] <Obscurity> mmm it is asking me for my password
[01:57] <Obscurity> the terminal is any ways
[01:57] <EriC^^> does sudo modprobe efivars work by any chance?
[01:57] <fullstack> cool I'm installing ubuntu on my new lappy386!
[01:58] <fullstack> $160 Thinkpad T510 i5 4gb ram on ebay
[01:58] <k1l> Obscurity: sudo asks once. then it will keep it for some time. but dont close the terminal because opening another terminal will start other session which will need a new authentification
[01:58] <llldino> EriC^^, Still no such device
[01:58] <Obscurity> yes
[01:58] <Obscurity> that is true
[01:58] <Obscurity> it wont let me type my password how ever
[01:59] <EriC^^> llldino: ok, edit /etc/fstab again and remove the /boot/efi line
[01:59] <Obscurity> not in terminal any way
[01:59] <k1l> Obscurity: there is no ******* when typing the password.
[01:59] <llldino> Okay
[01:59] <k1l> just type it blind and hit enter
[01:59] <Obscurity> nothing
[01:59] <Obscurity> noy even a ****
[01:59] <llldino> umount /dev/sdb2
[01:59] <llldino> Oops
[02:00] <k1l> Obscurity: there is no ***
[02:00] <Obscurity> nope
[02:00] <k1l> Obscurity: that is right
[02:01] <llldino> EriC^^, Alright edited fstab
[02:01] <kinker31> My previous pastebin was a bit finicky with me, so here's a better one! http://paste.ubuntu.com/14540377/
[02:02] <Obscurity> thank you KLL
[02:03] <Obscurity> it worked :)
[02:05] <weox>  I am using oracle jdk , now I want to install eclipse from fedora repository , apt-get wants to install openjdk . is there any way to tell to apt-get I have jdk !
[02:06] <kinker31> You still there, EriC^^?
[02:06] <k1l> weox: how did you install jdk? and how are you using a "fedora repo"?
[02:07] <weox> sorry , not fedora repo , ( i did it one time with fedora repo but didn't work out ) currencty I uses web8 repo
[02:07] <weox> if I remember correctly its name
[02:07] <weox> I can give link if this does matter
[02:09] <k1l> weox: well, if it was installed with apt then apt should know. but if the 3rd party package wants a openjdk instead of the oracle jdk its the package depencies fault
[02:10] <weox> thanks
[02:10] <imnichol> anyone have any experience with lxc?
[02:12] <kinker31> My wifi is being slooow.
[02:18] <kinker31> ....Hello?
[02:19] <nicomachus> kinker31: we saw
[02:19] <kinker31> Ah, Thanks.
[02:19] <nicomachus> but unless you describe the issue more in depth, there's nothing anyone can do
[02:19] <kinker31> Wi-fi's not wanting to be competent with me right now.
[02:19] <fibes> have you checked channel congestion?
[02:20] <fibes> IE if you see if a bunch of signals on chan 6 move to 11
[02:20] <fibes> whichever has the least 1 6 or 11
[02:20] <nicomachus> kinker31: why do you say that. are you getting slow speeds? what is normal? what are you getting now? what makes you think it's an ubuntu error? what is your wifi driver? what ubuntu version? details.
[02:26] <kinker31> Are you speaking about the wi-fi?
[02:26] <fullstack> it saids to remove floppies to reboot
[02:27] <fullstack> wtf, its 2016. who has a floppy drive
[02:27] <nicomachus> fullstack: I do. and watch your language please.
[02:27] <fullstack> Please a moment of silent for those of us who still run ubuntu 286
[02:27] <fullstack> nicomachus, please /ignore thanks
[02:28] <fullstack> oh lala la. the keyboard on this laptop is concaved slightly in
[02:29] <fullstack> how do I enable wifi connect via command line in ubuntu server
[02:29] <fullstack> iwconfig wlan0 join <ssid> or something?
[02:30] <nicomachus> or something.
[02:31] <al2o3-cr> fullstack: wpa2?
[02:32] <fullstack> yeah, iwconfig wlan0 key s:<password_wireless>
[02:32] <fullstack> that?
[02:32] <Obscurity> how do i get to the wine hq channel?
[02:32] <nicomachus> Obscurity: /join ##winehq
[02:32] <k1l> !wine | Obscurity
[02:32] <fullstack> Obscurity, the irc channel?
[02:32] <Obscurity> thank you
[02:32] <nicomachus> Obscurity: sorry it's #winehq
[02:32] <al2o3-cr> fullstack: wpa_supplicant -B -i interface -c <(wpa_passphrase SSID passphrase)
[02:32] <fullstack> crazy, really?
[02:33] <al2o3-cr> yep
[02:46] <extraymond> Anyone know how to disable fglrx temporarily? I want to use fglrx when working, but radeon when casual-browsing since it offers better desktop experience
[02:47] <rww> that way lies madness, in my experience
[02:47] <travix> Anyone have a good ipblocker they would suggest for ubuntu?
[02:48] <ubuntu703> hello there, can someone give me a hand, kind of stuck trying to make something work
[02:49] <scootero> Hello there.. ;)
[02:49] <fullstack> travix, sudo iptables -I INPUT -d x.y.z.w -j REJECT
[02:49] <fullstack> travix, that should block ip x.y.z.w
[02:49] <nicomachus> ubuntu703: what's the issue?
[02:50] <ubuntu703> I'm trying to do a dualboot (already had ubuntu installed), I made a partition for windows to be installed (until now everything works great) but when I enter the windows CD it just tells me that it cannot be installed on gpt
[02:50] <ubuntu703> looked serveral things on google but just made me mroe confused
[02:51] <nicomachus> likely an issue for ##windows... but what version of windows is it?
[02:52] <ubuntu703> aye its all about windows but since I have ubuntu as main I thought to come here and ask, sorry if it is kind of "offtopic" its win7
[02:52] <nicomachus> yea it is a bit offtopic here, since this is solely ubuntu support. But I'm going to *guess* it's an issue with EFI v. legacy. but this isn't my area of expertise.
[02:53] <ubuntu703> sorry about that then, that is bios side right?
[02:54] <nicomachus> yes it is.
[02:54] <ubuntu703> I've readed about that a  bit since someone had a similar issue and was given a similar answer, but I wondered if that would just made the install work
[02:55] <ubuntu703> or if i'll need to switch from one anotehr depending on what OS i want to run
[02:55] <profetik777> hello
[02:55] <nicomachus> ubuntu703: you cannot have one OS installed as EFI and another as Legacy. They MUST both be the same.
[02:56] <ubuntu703> so there is no workaround for that? or?
[02:56] <nicomachus> ubuntu703: not that I know of, but as I said it's not my area of expertise.
[02:57] <ubuntu703> ok thanks a lot anyways now atleast I have some things clear
[02:57] <ubuntu703> have a nice day :)
[02:57] <profetik777> just wanna say how awesome I think ubuntu is.
[02:59] <fullstack> how do I make ubuntu server start X and xdm login like ubuntu desktop?
[03:00] <fullstack> on a new install on my laptop. I have fluxbox, x11, xinit, and xterm right now
[03:01] <nicomachus> why not just install desktop version? why put server on a laptop?
[03:13] <LordSesshomaru> hey, I'm having connection sharing issues, I'm connected to wifi, but when I plug in the ethernet cable it loads my sharing connection on eth0 but kills the wifi connection
[03:28] <bob2017> k1rk?
[03:29] <scootero> q
[03:29] <usmc0311> q
[03:30] <bob2017> q
[03:30] <bob2017> what’s supposed to happen?
[03:34] <fullstack> http://www.startrek.com/legacy_media/images/200307/q02/320x240.jpg
[03:37] <LordSesshomaru> hey, I'm having connection sharing issues, I'm connected to wifi, but when I plug in the ethernet cable it loads my sharing connection on eth0 but kills the wifi connection, any ideas why this is happening?  On any other machine it just works, set the eth0 connection to share and it shares.
[03:39] <janesmith> I'm trying to get MythTV working on a new machine with 15.10. I typed "sudo status mythtvbackend" and I got this: "tatus: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused" ... which seems ... bad.... and then I read online that ubuntu replaced upstart ... is that true? What am I supposed to use for services?
[03:41] <nicomachus> janesmith: you may find this helpful: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers
[03:41] <nicomachus> upstart was replaced with systemd, and that wiki gives a decent rundown
[03:42] <janesmith> nicomachus: ok I'll check it out.
[03:45] <kinker31> Heya!  The only problem I have left with grub is that iit can't seem to find /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi .
[03:47] <janesmith> SystemD seems like a real winner with all these commands. So much simpler.
[03:47] <janesmith> #newStuffIsNew but still #simpleCommandsAreBetter
[03:48] <janesmith> ok so... if I want to diagnose "failed to load: no such file or directory" should I start at /etc/init/$job or is that just there to tease me, and the systemD files are somewhere else?
[03:50] <nicomachus> janesmith: I'm not sure, but there is an entire channel just for #systemd, if that helps.
[03:50] <kinker31> Is there a way to get GRUB2 to detect the Windows efi file and boot up Windows 10?

[03:53] <hypermist> Question how to enable or install apt-add-repository /
[03:53] <outfox> is awesome-wm faster than xfce?
[03:53] <nicomachus> hypermist: apt-add-repository is part of apt, and is used to add third-party PPAs to your system sources.
[03:54] <nicomachus> !ppa | hypermist
[03:55] <hypermist> alright i undertsand nicomachus but is there a way to enable ?
[03:55] <nicomachus> what do you mean enable...?
[03:55] <hypermist> apt-add-repository isnt a command
[03:56] <jiffer> I have a question I just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu on my vituralbox on a windwos 7 pc, using a ssd. But it seems to run super slow i have 64gb of ram too
[03:56] <nicomachus> hypermist: https://askubuntu.com/questions/493460/how-to-install-add-apt-repository-using-the-terminal
[03:56] <jiffer> any suggestions to speed up ubuntu
[03:56] <hypermist> thanks nicomachus
[03:57] <nicomachus> jiffer: did you install the guest additions iso?
[03:57] <jiffer> yes i did
[03:58] <nicomachus> jiffer: ok, and did you enable 3D acceleration in the VirtualBox manager window?
[03:58] <Muimi> Hey guys, I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 on a powerbook g4.  I'm wondering if I should be using the powerpc ISO or the intel 32-bit iso?
[03:58] <jiffer> no i did not
[03:58] <nicomachus> Muimi: you shouldn't install 10.04. You should install 14.04
[03:58] <nicomachus> jiffer: do that.
[03:58] <Muimi> Also, does it matter if I use the mini cd, as far as whether or not it will -- yeah sorry 14.04 thanks. -- be recognized.
[03:59] <nicomachus> Muimi: wow, those are some... low specs. I would suggest a lighter distro like lubuntu.
[03:59] <Muimi> The issue I'm having is, using Rufus 2, it says "the ISO file cannot be burned with FAT/FAT32/NTFS/UDF file system; however, the guide I'm using says to use FAT.
[03:59] <Muimi> thanks.
[04:00] <Muimi> Is 14.04 lubuntu nice and stable?
[04:00] <nicomachus> Muimi: yes.
[04:01] <Muimi> So, I've burned several mini cds (one onto a DVD, one onto USB, and one onto a CD).  None of them were recognized by the powerbook g4.  I was thinking: maybe it's because I need the ppc iso file?  If so, why wouldn't it burn to the USB?
[04:02] <jiffer> enabled 3d
[04:02] <jiffer> it seems to work a bit faster
[04:03] <Muimi> Well, I'm going to test a few things. Any response, loking forward to it
[04:03] <nicomachus> jiffer: some other options to speed up the vbox: https://askubuntu.com/questions/289677/how-to-improve-performance-of-virtualbox-when-unity-low-gfx-mode-is-not-working
[04:03] <nicomachus> some of those will break animations and whatnot, though, so just check what you're doing before you do it.
[04:04] <OerHeks> Muimi, see here for ppc downloads https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCDownloads
[04:05] <OerHeks> and this page is a help too, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[04:07] <Muimi> @ OerHeks: I have the download right, but I'm having issues with burning the PPC release to USB.  I'm using "Rufus 2" to burn the ISO file, and it's saying it can't burn the powerpc download.
[04:08] <OerHeks> Muimi, correct, powerbookG4 can boot from firewire, not usb, AFAIK
[04:09] <Muimi> Would it be possible for me to burn the iso file to a PC?
[04:09] <OerHeks> maybe it is in the FAQ, never read it as i have no ppc
[04:10] <OerHeks> Muimi, i think you mean burn to cd? sure
[04:11] <Muimi> i got a firewire drive somewhere, but i'd way rather buy a cd _sometime_ tomorrow than search for a firewire drive _all night_ tonight.
[04:12] <Muimi> okay.  Cool.  Thanks.
[04:12] <OerHeks> yw
[04:13] <goddard> how long is kubuntu supported
[04:13] <OerHeks> goddard, depends, what version?
[04:23] <yorwos> hi all, i just read about kernel 4.4 released , do u think it will be included in the future updates pretty soon or should i manually install it instead ?
[04:24] <nicomachus> yorwos: it will be included in 16.04
[04:24] <nicomachus> I would not recommend manually installing it.
[04:24] <OerHeks> 16.04 will indeed
[04:24] <Hrob> hi!
[04:24] <yorwos> hm,im using 14.04 so far
[04:25] <yorwos> well thanx for the info , will wait for 16.04
[04:25] <welovfree_> Hi
[04:26] <welovfree_> What is the best download manager for Ubuntu? an alternative idman for Ubuntu users.
[04:26] <Hrob> With and extended desktop over 2 or 3 monitors,  is it possible for me to limit my mouse movement to only one monitor... or limit the movement over some small rectangle on the extended desktop
[04:26] <bob2017> hello
[04:27] <Hrob> I realized I can do this with  touch or pen device by setting the coordinate transform matrix with  $ xinput set-prop ...
[04:27] <Hrob> however this does not have desired effect with mouse devices
[04:27] <welovfree_> bob2017, Hi
[04:27] <Hrob> any ideas?
[04:29] <DandyAndy> anyone here?
[04:30] <CinnamonRickRoll> theres almost 2000 ppl here
[04:34] <bob2017> hey - my graphics card isn’t detecting my monitors.  how can i make it do that?  xrandr returns that it finds one, called “default.”  With livecd it correctly finds all three monitors on DVI-1, Display-1, etc.
[04:36] <allstarsnorks2> Hi there. Does Ubuntu 14.04.3 come with GTK 3.12/GTK 3.14 by default?
[04:40] <nicomachus> allstarsnorks2: looks like 3.10.8

[04:43] <sgo11> hi, in /etc/fstab, I want to mount cifs samba share. I can mount a specific directory such as "//storage/public  /media/smbstorage  cifs", but I can not do this "//storage/  /media/smbstorage  cifs". why not? I just want to mount the root directory and everything automatically. in file manager such as nautilus, I can simply access "smb://storage/" without any problems. why can't fstab mount cifs do this?
[04:44] <root7> greetings - first time here, just gave up mint for ubuntu xenial..
[04:45] <nicomachus> root7: congrats! unfortunately, since xenial is still in alpha, discussion/support is at #ubuntu+1 and is off topic here
[04:45] <root7> it wasnt a discussion it was a statement..
[04:46] <root7> but your welcome
[04:46] <goddard> OerHeks: 14.04
[04:48] <OneM_Industries> So, I am attempting to install ubuntu-server on an old machine to play around with, and it gave me this: mount: mounting /dev/sda on /media failed: invalid argument
[04:48] <OneM_Industries> (Repeat that for /sdb, sdc, etc)
[04:48] <OneM_Industries> Any ideas on what is wrong and how to fix it?
[04:50] <OerHeks> goddard, 5 years, it is lts
[04:50] <goddard> OerHeks: sorry but when was it released? or is there a place I should be checking this myself?
[04:51] <OerHeks> goddard, 14.04 = 2014
[04:51] <OerHeks> easy to find i think
[04:53] <goddard> ahh ok and 16.04 is 2016
[04:56] <OneM_Industries> Anyone?
[04:58] <OerHeks> OneM_Industries, maybe mount /dev/sda1 /media ?? you can mount a partition, not a disk
[04:59] <OneM_Industries> Ok, let me see..
[04:59] <OneM_Industries> Ok, odd. It went past that stage on its own.
[05:00] <OerHeks> uh? frankenstein-ubuntu?
[05:00] <OneM_Industries> I am just going to leave it and hope for the best. The SATA to IDE converter I bought may be kinda wonky.
[05:00] <OneM_Industries> Heh. "Sed-a-give?!"
[05:06] <inferno__> Hey guys, have a question about Ubuntu Server 14.4.3 LTS, note that its basically my first time, so I have little to no experience with it, but Ive learned throuh YT videos. My question is about how the inet address does not seem to show up after manual restart of the server, of which I run on a VM on VirtualBox. I actually deleted the server and created another VM and set it up the same as the first, and it still didnt show up, a
[05:08] <OerHeks> inferno__, stop the vm, go into the vm settings, network, choose bridged networking, not NAT, save, and restart
[05:09] <inferno__> OerHeks, did that, nothing
[05:09] <OerHeks> !vbox
[05:11] <inferno__> The thing is, the first time before manual reset it worked, when I put in the inet address in my browser the Apache server came up with the default index.html
[05:12] <OerHeks> There is a dedicated channel for server too, #ubuntu-server
[05:13] <TwistedFruit> OerHeks: This channel should suffice for both roles.
[05:13] <inferno__> alright thanks
[05:14] <OerHeks> TwistedFruit, just saying, also there is #virtualbox too.
[05:15] <inferno__> I asked on there too, see if anyone can help
[05:16] <TwistedFruit> OerHeks: Ah, sorry, I took what you were saying as a question, not a suggestion. Doh.
[05:16] <nicomachus> OerHeks: virtualbox channel is #vbox
[05:17] <OerHeks> ChibaPet, no problem, maybe he needs an other setting, host-only adapter, not sure, i use KVM only
[05:22] <inferno__> anyway to disable join/leave messages?
[05:23] <nicomachus> inferno__: what client?
[05:23] <OerHeks> inferno__, depends on your client, http://wiki.xkcd.com/irc/Hide_join_part_messages
[05:23] <jiffer> ls
[05:23] <inferno__> Oh im on the browser version
[05:24] <nicomachus> uhh... perhaps "/ignore -channel #channelname * JOINS PARTS QUITS NICKS" will work
[05:25] <rww> inferno__: click the blue icon in the top left, go to Options, there's a checkbox in there for it.
[05:25] <rww> the webchat doesn't have /ignore
[05:25] <nicomachus> ah. never used it.
[05:27] <inferno__> well sheet might as well get a client since I do use IRC from time to time
[05:28] <sgo11> hi, how can I run a script after wlan0 interface get an IP address automatically at boot? I tried to put the script in /etc/network/if-up.d/, but it doesn't work. it runs multiple times with each interface up, but run before dhcpd.
[05:33] <ChibaPet> sgo11: Are you using /etc/network/interfaces? If so, look at post-up in the man page.
[05:34] <irctc058> I upgraded version initiator icon does not work What should I do
[05:34] <irctc058> kde4 upgrade kde5
[05:36] <sgo11> ChibaPet, thanks a lot. I found how to use post-up in google. but which man page do you refer to? I tried "man ifup" and "man /etc/network/interfaces". both does not have post-up description.
[05:37] <ChibaPet> "man interfaces"
[05:38] <sgo11> ChibaPet, got it. thanks. one more question, should I create a script by root user or normal user? which user will execute that command? I guess it's root, right?
[05:41] <ChibaPet> Root, yeah.
[05:47] <sgo11> ChibaPet, just tried it. does not work. I don't find any logs related to this action in /var/log/*
[05:52] <ChibaPet> sgo11: Are you using interfaces to bring up the network, as opposed to NetworkManager?
[05:56] <llldino> If I have a system with Windows and Linux/GNU, and I want to dual boot and want Raid0 on both, can I do this with software raid (2 arrays, one with windows and one with Linux) or do I have to use hardware Raid?
[05:59] <ChibaPet> sgo11: Anyway, have the script write out a record of its action in /tmp or something to verify that it's working. Make sure it's executable, as that might be a requirement.
[06:15] <sgo11> ChibaPet, sorry about the late reply. I was out for a while. I did test and add touch /tmp/test.txt to that script. the file can be created. that means that script does run. but I put "mount /media/smbshare" in that script, this line does not work and there is no log why it does not work. how to debug further? thanks a lot. Btw, That mount command can only work after dhcpd and wlan0 get an IP address.
[06:19] <ChibaPet> sgo11: I'm a bit tired, but I have a recollection of a way to specify that a filesystem mount after networks are up. Let me look.
[06:19] <sgo11> ChibaPet, sorry to trouble you. thanks a lot for your help.
[06:19] <ChibaPet> Maybe I'm thinking of a BSD option. post-up ought to do the trick - will your script mount it if you run it by hand
[06:19] <ChibaPet> ?
[06:20] <sgo11> ChibaPet, yeah, if I do sudo script. it will mount that directory without any problems.
[06:21] <sgo11> ChibaPet, I am rebooting that machine again. this time I redirects stdout and stderr to a file. let me see if there is something.
[06:22] <sgo11> ChibaPet, ok. still dhcpd's problem. the file shows "mount error: could not resolve address for storage: Unknown error". that means post-up runs before wlan0 gets an IP address.
[06:23] <ChibaPet> That's odd.
[06:23] <ChibaPet> Counterintuitive, even.
[06:24] <ChibaPet> Well. You could try a sleep at the start of your script. Seems like that shouldn't be necessary.
[06:24] <gambl0re> how do you cut paste in terminal?
[06:24] <gambl0re> cp doesnt remove the file from old location
[06:24] <ChibaPet> gambl0re: Depends on the terminal. I think a few of them defaults to control-shift-p and control-shift-v
[06:24] <ChibaPet> gambl0re: cp makes a copy
[06:25] <ChibaPet> gambl0re: mv should remove the old one
[06:25] <gambl0re> mv (old dir) (new dir)
[06:25] <ChibaPet> Alright, good night all. Nodding off as I sit here. I'll be back.
[06:25] <gambl0re> do i need to provide any options?
[06:26] <nicomachus> gambl0re: you can use "mv", which is move
[06:26] <nicomachus> oh. I need to read.
[06:26] <nicomachus> no options needed.
[06:26] <nicomachus> you can check available options with "man mv" if you're curious
[06:27] <gambl0re> k thanks

[06:30] <sgo11> ChibaPet, a sleep will work. but that is kinda workaround. it can not promise the action will always succeed. what if my wlan0 does not bring up properly, and does work after 10 minutes? to define a mount loop can be another workaround to this problem. but it's better to find out a real solution that a script is executed only once after wlan0 gets an IP address. but whatever. workaround can work.
[06:32] <linocisco> EriC^^, thanks
[06:32] <EriC^^> no problem
[06:33] <bob2017> can someone help me?  linux isn’t seeing any of my monitors.
[06:34] <ChibaPet> sgo11: had to respond to an email and I'm hitting the sack presently, but: you can have the mount marked "nofail" in fstab. You can have the script try for a period of time and give up. It's hacky and bad, but you might want to account for a remote share not being available even if your network *does* come up.
[06:35] <ChibaPet> It might be worth submitting a bug report for post-up not working, as clearly it's not doing what it advertises.
[06:36] <bob2017> chibapet: i made progress on my thing! now i can boot to a command line.  once, the monitors even worked
[06:36] <ChibaPet> bob2017: cool
[06:37] <sgo11> ChibaPet, got it. thanks a lot for this help.
[06:37] <ChibaPet> I haven't done my install here yet. Possibly tomorrow. I've been waiting for a reply on a mailing list and the weekend has slowed things down.
[06:37] <fullstack> hi no sound. cat /proc/asound/cards show HDA-Intel MID
[06:37] <fullstack> do i need to just install a volume controls?
[06:37] <bob2017> chibapet: any suggestions on getting it to see the monitors?  the one time it worked, i can’t remember what i did, except i started with one monitor and plugged the other ones gradually.  now, xrandr -q, just reports a “default” monitor with only one resolution
[06:38] <ChibaPet> bob2017: I am struggling to keep my eyes open. :P Um.
[06:38] <bob2017> chibapet: try adderall
[06:38] <ChibaPet> Yeah, start with one monitor. Simpler is better.
[06:38] <ChibaPet> I'm going to try sleep. :P
[06:38] <bob2017> chibapet: ok, but its not recognizing even one at the moment
[06:38] <fullstack> modafinil
[06:39] <ChibaPet> bob2017: I can poke around with you tomorrow if you're on. Ought to be possible to nail down a card via driver blacklisting and/or xorg config.
[06:39] <javnut> how do I change a dconf setting that has no schema, need it for compiz
[06:39] <bob2017> chiba: the card is loading the right driver.  its just not detecting the monitors
[06:40] <ChibaPet> bob2017: Did you try an xorg.conf with a screen section that specifies the device?
[06:40] <ChibaPet> The driver might be loaded, but unused, potentially.
[06:40] <bob2017> chibapet: how would i make one of those?  the generation scripts all say that the number of devices and screens don’t match
[06:41] <bob2017> chibapet:  lshw -c video shows that the correct driver is being used for the card
[06:41] <ChibaPet> Which card did you end up using?
[06:41] <ChibaPet> Or do you want to use anyway?
[06:41] <bob2017> the AMD
[06:42] <ChibaPet> Tomorrow I'll see if I can get a sample xorg.conf for you. I have a Radeon in my work desktop I can use as a model.
[06:42] <ChibaPet> For now, g'night! o/
[06:43] <easyOnMe> hi
[06:43] <easyOnMe> just want to ask if this path in my ~/.profile will work once I run it
[06:43] <easyOnMe> I am using ubuntu linux 14.04LTS
[06:43] <easyOnMe> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14542595/
[06:43] <easyOnMe> thanks in advance
[06:45] <alef> hello world
[06:45] <alef> http://garantert.net/madMAGAZINE/AmigaOS3.1_source_code.tar.bz2
[06:45] <alef> happy coding!
[06:46] <easyOnMe> bekks: are you online
[06:49] <easyOnMe> sorry to ask this again but for the past 5 mins
[06:49] <easyOnMe> just want to ask if this path in my ~/.profile will work once I run it
[06:49] <easyOnMe> I am using ubuntu linux 14.04LTS
[06:49] <easyOnMe> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14542595/
[07:00] <cpp_shill> easyOnMe: You don't need the quotes, and you specify a directory when adding to PATH. So ending with /platform-tools will work.
[07:01] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: ok let me edit the file see if it works this time
[07:02] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14542719/ will this work after I run the source ~/.profile command on my terminal
[07:02] <easyOnMe>  
[07:03] <cpp_shill> easyOnMe: I would leave off the trailing slash, but why don't you just try and see?
[07:04] <cpp_shill> Your computer won't explode
[07:04] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: firstly
[07:04] <easyOnMe> how do I know that it will work after I run the command
[07:04] <easyOnMe> because I already typed source ~/.profile on my terminal
[07:05] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: I think it did not work
[07:05] <cpp_shill> See if it recognizes executables in the platform-tools directory. Adb should be in there, so try adb --help or something.
[07:06] <hey_ugly_ducklin> so irc still exists..
[07:17] <easyOnMe> Things done so far: I changed the ~/.profile on my ubuntu linux 14.04LTS to add the following line: export PATH=$PATH:~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/
[07:23] <abhi_> hey guys, I  have a problem with my network and im getting error: The system network services are not compatible with this version.
[07:24] <cpp_shill> easyOnMe: try restarting your terminal
[07:27] <nicomachus> cpp_shill: wat
[07:30] <lotuspsychje> !details | abhi_ explain what you are doing please
[07:31] <lis_> hi
[07:31] <lotuspsychje> lis_: welcome, what can we do for you?
[07:31] <lis_> its my first time using
[07:32] <lotuspsychje> lis_: you joined an ubuntu support channel here, you can ask issues about ubuntu
[07:33] <abhi_> I have installed ubuntu - 14.10 and i was using wifi connection but suddenly it has stopped working. Moreover there is no WIFI sign on top right corner of the screen. And in network settings i am getting error: "The system network services are not compatible with this version".
[07:33] <abhi_> And in network settings there is only Network Proxy method available.
[07:34] <lotuspsychje> abhi_: 14.10 is end of life mate
[07:34] <lotuspsychje> abhi_: install a version from our topic
[07:34] <abhi_> oho
[07:35] <lotuspsychje> abhi_: 14.04.3 LTS perhaps?
[07:35] <abhi_> ok then now tell me how to properly uninstall this ubuntu version.  I have installed it using wubi.exe
[07:36] <lotuspsychje> abhi_: wubi is not supported neither anymore, make a new usb with ubuntu iso
[07:36] <abhi_> Also from online material i couldnt find any method to properly uninstall ubuntu or just upgrade to some next or old version.
[07:36] <lotuspsychje> abhi_: its not recommended to upgrade from your eol version right now
[07:36] <lotuspsychje> abhi_: can you make a new usb and fresh install?
[07:37] <lotuspsychje> !usb | abhi_
[07:37] <abhi_> ya sure i ll. But first how to uninstall this 14.10 version
[07:37] <lotuspsychje> abhi_: you dont have to uninstall, just install a new version, it will wipe previous
[07:38] <lotuspsychje> abhi_: make sure you choose erase everthing and install new ubuntu version during setup
[07:38] <abhi_> in dual mode too?
[07:38] <nicomachus> uhh no
[07:38] <abhi_> because i want to keep windows too
[07:38] <lotuspsychje> !dualboot | abhi_
[07:40] <allstarsnorks2> Hi there. I'm having a Hash Sum Mismatch on Ubuntu 14.04.3 Terminal.
[07:40] <allstarsnorks2> How do I fix this?
[07:40] <lotuspsychje> allstarsnorks2: are you testing an iso on md5?
[07:40] <allstarsnorks2> what
[07:40] <allstarsnorks2> I don't think so
[07:40] <lotuspsychje> allstarsnorks2: start from the beginning, what are you trying?
[07:41] <allstarsnorks2> I'm trying to apt-get update
[07:41] <lengmen> I'm about to make a new install. Should I prefer 16.04 LTS (alpha) over 14.04 LTS? Currently I'm using 14.04 and I don't find it stable at all and very slow. What should I do?
[07:41] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: 16.04 is still in test phase right now
[07:42] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: But won't it be stable in a couple months?
[07:42] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: its recommended to sort your issues one by one on 14.04
[07:42] <nicomachus> lengmen: install 14.04 and then upgrade to 16.04 in April when it's officially released.
[07:42] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: correct, you can also test and help bugging out right now if you like
[07:43] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: see the daily iso's @ #ubuntu+1
[07:45] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: but still i would recommend finding out whats bottlnecking your system right now..
[07:46] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: if you dont find out, maybe it will continue on 16.04 also
[07:46] <Guest142> #tt
[07:46] <Guest142> yo
[07:46] <lengmen> Idk I hesitate to install Ubuntu right now, maybe I should go with Fedora. I can't decide
[07:46] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: we strongly advise to install ubuntu, most popular Os in the world :p
[07:46] <lengmen> I mean occasional X crashes and stuff is not fun
[07:46] <Guest142> test
[07:47] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: thats why you need to findout whats happening, if not youl get it on fedora probably too
[07:47] <lotuspsychje> !details | lengmen
[07:47] <lengmen> I also use arch it is sometimes unstable as f too but that's expected as I almost exclusively compile everything from github bleeding-edge and shining
[07:47] <lengmen> But I expect Ubuntu to be stable :P
[07:48] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: share to this channel whats going on exactly
[07:48] <allstarsnorks2> I'm still having Hash Sum Mistatch after clearing my /var/lib/apt/lists/*
[07:48] <allstarsnorks2> *Mismatch
[07:48] <lotuspsychje> allstarsnorks2: added ppa's of any kind?
[07:48] <allstarsnorks2> I only added the elementary OS PPAs
[07:49] <lotuspsychje> !ppapurge | allstarsnorks2 first
[07:49] <allstarsnorks2> but Hash Sum from the official Ubuntu Universe PPAs
[07:49] <allstarsnorks2> *I'm getting Hash Sum Mismatches
[07:49] <lotuspsychje> allstarsnorks2: wich ones?
[07:50] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: It's not one thing actually. Sometimes my X stops working I can't move my windows but I can use 3D cube (compiz). Firefox always stops working once I open more than flash 3/4 videos. I would love to report all these bugs generally what I need is a stable system that won't give me errors :D
[07:50] <allstarsnorks2> trusty-backports/universe/binary-amd64/Packages, binary-i386, main/i18n/Translation-en and  universe/i18n/Translation-en
[07:51] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: keep in mind that adobe flash on FF is pretty dead on linux, test chromium-browser instead
[07:51] <easyOnMe> how do I run a file from inside a folder
[07:51] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: and there are known issues on cube + unity
[07:51] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: Yeah I figured that out after some while now I always use chromium
[07:51] <easyOnMe> like this one: erwin@erwin-M720SRS:~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools$
[07:51] <easyOnMe> and I wanted to run a file named adb
[07:52] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: Yet it generally uses more RAM than Firefox, especially when I have a lot of tabs
[07:52] <lotuspsychje> allstarsnorks2: can you report this in #ubuntu-mirrors please
[07:52] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: what kind og graphics card and driver loaded please and ubuntu version?
[07:52] <SorcerousFox> Case and point.. 8 tabs using 1.2Gb Ram at this moment for me: chromium-browser
[07:53] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: 14.04 latest updates, nvidia with prop driver, 4GB RAM
[07:53] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: card chipset please?
[07:54] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: sudo lshw -C video
[07:55] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: You want: "GF108M [GeForce GT 425M]"?
[07:55] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: yep
[07:55] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: Would nouveau be better and more stable?
[07:56] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: can you go check wich driver is active right now please, = additional drivers (hardware icon)
[07:56] <cpp_shill> easyOnMe: did you try what I mentioned earlier? Close your terminal and open a new session, then try 'adb --help' from any directory. If your PATH is correct, you should get adb output.
[07:57] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: nvidia 352.63 (package nvidia-352)
[07:57] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: The program 'adb' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
[07:57] <easyOnMe> sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb
[07:58] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: ok, test a lower version please like 340 or 346 (if that shows your list)?
[07:58] <easyOnMe> that is what I got
[07:58] <cpp_shill> And you rebooted the terminal?
[07:59] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: Yeah 340. Is more widely tested? Also in ##linux people told me to use nouveau instead a couple days ago what do you think?
[07:59] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: i advise you test 340 first, if that doesnt make your system better, try the opensource yes
[07:59] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: sudo apt-get purge nvidia (for going back to nouveau)
[08:00] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: or select in your additional drivers
[08:00] <herman> halo
[08:00] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: also keep in mind that using 3d cube can crash compiz in unity
[08:00] <herman> hai
[08:00] <cpp_shill> easyOnMe: And you rebooted the terminal?
[08:00] <lotuspsychje> !ask | herman
[08:01] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: yes
[08:01] <herman> ok
[08:02] <cpp_shill> easyOnMe: Ok just making sure. Have you changed your .profile again since your posts an hour ago?
[08:02] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: Weird, actually 3d-cube is working just fine for me but maybe it's the root of bugs. Anyway, next time I install any system I won't even touch compiz (even if I adore it)
[08:02] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: The program 'adb' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
[08:02] <easyOnMe> sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb
[08:02] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: i would start clean yes, not sure how compiz will act in the future and 16.04...
[08:03] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14543054/
[08:03] <herman> i have one question
[08:03] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: i have wobbly windows stable on 16.04 though
[08:04] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: I use wobbly windows (along with almost all compiz eye candies) always but I suspect that creates the unstability in my system. This time I will completely eradicate compiz and see how it works
[08:04] <herman> nom-nom gomes
[08:05] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: compiz is part o the system, you mean not using additional plugins
[08:05] <cpp_shill> easyOnMe: Yeah remove the '/adb' from the end of that PATH line again, then save and reboot your terminal again.
[08:05] <lotuspsychje> lengmen: try to fix your graphics driver first, that will straightn up things
[08:06] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: Oh so unity depends on compiz? Hmm, then I can just use gnome
[08:07] <lotuspsychje> !flavors | lengmen use what you like
[08:07] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: ok will do
[08:07] <easyOnMe> brb
[08:07] <lengmen> lotuspsychje: I know, thanks :)
[08:07] <lotuspsychje> bbl now, good luck
[08:08] <easyOnMe> cpp_shill: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14543072/

[08:13] <dfcnvt> Is there a solution to this?  What's the problem?
[08:14] <Ben64> easyOnMe: pastebin the output of "uname -a" and "file /home/erwin/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/adb"
[08:15] <cpp_shill> easyOnMe: Yeah it sounds like your file is for a different architecture.
[08:16] <easyOnMe> Ben64: one min pls
[08:16] <easyOnMe> brb
[08:17] <allstarsnorks2> So, I installed Pantheon (elementary-desktop) but I have no option to switch to it in the lockscreen.

[08:19] <easyOnMe> Ben64: so I must download the 32 bit sdk is it
[08:19] <Ben64> yep
[08:22] <jojo8000> hello
[08:22] <jojo8000> is there anybody in there ?
[08:23] <Ben64> 1774 people including you
[08:23] <jojo8000> cool
[08:23] <jojo8000> is lubuntu a goog os for a modern processor ?
[08:23] <Guest41911> Where can i disable the Jack-server?
[08:23] <BUSY> this may not be ubuntu specific, but i used devede to create a video dvd and it produced an iso.  can i burn this iso with any other software to still get a video playing dvd?
[08:24] <Ben64> jojo8000: if you enjoy lubuntu, sure
[08:24] <BUSY> or do i need to use devede to ensure dvd player compatibility
[08:24] <Guest41911> Ubuntustudio
[08:25] <bramgn> BUSY: probably any ohter software since it's a iso
[08:25] <BUSY> that's what i thought but i wasn't sure if it would only put the file structure on the disk
[08:25] <jojo8000> windows 10 use 1.4 Gb ram :0'
[08:25] <BUSY> or if that is enough to work
[08:25] <jojo8000> :0(
[08:25] <BUSY> like brasero should work?
[08:26] <bramgn> BUSY: yes, the iso contains the file structure
[08:26] <theRVman> BUSY: making an iso will make an exact replica of the folder structure. It should be good enough to get your videos running.
[08:27] <BUSY> thanks everyone!
[08:30] <MrCee3> the little icon that was in the tray is missing now... i am using ubuntu 14.04

[08:55] <javnut> things like the compiz values?
[09:04] <dellpc> hello
[09:04] <dellpc> anybody here ?
[09:04] <cfhowlett> dellpc, always.
[09:05] <drwxr-x---> dellpc: im here
[09:05] <mauro_> hi guys
[09:05] <dellpc> what flavor are u using guys ?
[09:06] <alkisg> gnome-flashback :)
[09:06] <cfhowlett> dellpc, this is the support channel.  chit chat  and polls belong in #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:06] <OerHeks> This is not a polling channel, dellpc, do you have an ubuntu support question?
[09:07] <dellpc> not really important :D
[09:07] <dellpc> sorry guys
[09:07] <cfhowlett> dellpc, no worries.
[09:11] <cris_> hello
[09:18] <samgoody> What is a "system user", and does it have more or less power than a non-system user?
[09:18] <cfhowlett> samgoody, a system user is generally any person using the ubuntu system.  context??
[09:20] <OerHeks> user accounts each have a unique number, the UID. It's common to give programs an account with a low number (lower than 1000), and real people an account with a higher number (1000 and up)
[09:20] <OerHeks> so system user is an user with an UID lower than 1000
[09:21] <cfhowlett> OerHeks, whoa!  SO much more informative than my answer.   I learned something!  thanks
[09:21] <OerHeks> (some say an UID >1000 without $HOME is a system user, i think not)
[09:22] <OerHeks> correct me if i am wrong!
[09:23] <bekks> Every user without a $HOME can be considered being a system user, too.
[09:23] <bekks> Most likely those users have an UID < 1000 anyways.
[09:24] <samgoody> So it's just not having a high UID
[09:24] <samgoody> When I do adduser -system, I mean, give a low UID?
[09:24] <bekks> samgoody: Whats the context, actually?
[09:25] <alkisg> samgoody: run this: grep SYSTEM_ /etc/adduser.conf
[09:25] <samgoody> I need a deploy user to run certain software. It should not have sudo powers.
[09:25] <alkisg> It'll tell you which UIDs adduser considers "system"
[09:25] <bekks> samgoody: So it doesnt need to be a system user.
[09:25] <alkisg> It's 999- for debian, 499- for fedora etc
[09:26] <alkisg> system users may have less "rights" than normal users, it's up to you to define if they have more or less
[09:26] <samgoody> AM still not getting it. Why would I ever make something a system user? And why not for this user, which will only exist to run this software on startup
[09:27] <bekks> samgoody: consider a webserver e.g., the webserver runs as www-data, which is a systemuser. No one needs to log in as that user, but the webserver should not be running as root.
[09:27] <bekks> samgoody: Which software in particular?
[09:28] <extraymond>  Anyone know how to disable fglrx temporarily? I want to use fglrx when working, but radeon when casual-browsing since it offers better desktop experience
[09:28] <bekks> samgoody: And which Ubuntu are you using?
[09:28] <samgoody> Exactly my case. So, should I make the user a system user? Software in this case is mailman, but I have had other examples lately. GUnicorn  I think had a similar requirement.
[09:28] <bekks> samgoody: Which software? Which Ubuntu?
[09:28] <samgoody> Using Ubuntu 15.
[09:29] <bekks> Which Ubuntu 15?
[09:29] <alkisg> samgoody: the question is, will real users ever login to a desktop environment with that UID? If not, then make it a system user.
[09:29] <alkisg> Do you want that account to show up in lightdm?
[09:29] <samgoody> 15.10, and no, real users need not ever access it
[09:30] <samgoody> So, I got an answer. Thank you very much
[09:30] <alkisg> :)
[09:30] <bekks> Actually there is no reason for touching users anyway. Mailman creates all stuff necessary on its own.
[09:30] <bekks> samgoody: The answer is: you dont need to create a user, manually.
[09:31] <samgoody> But who should mailman run as? There are multiple devs who would have rights to edit the files (based on the group's permissions)
[09:31] <bekks> samgoody: Just install mailman.
[09:31] <bekks> samgoody: sudo apt-get install mailman
[09:31] <arunpyasi> Hi guys, it looks like my ubutnu has got some virus/malware on it
[09:31] <cfhowlett> arunpyasi, unlikely.  proof?
[09:31] <bekks> samgoody: that will install and setup mailman correctly.
[09:32] <arunpyasi> some sorts of skype mails were sent from my profile to other people's chat
[09:32] <OerHeks> arunpyasi, change your skype password
[09:32] <cfhowlett> arunpyasi, so your SKYPE (owned) by Msoft is breached and you blame ... ubuntu?  riiiiiiiiiiiight
[09:32] <bekks> samgoody: I consider you've closely read this article already?: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mailman
[09:32] <arunpyasi> the mail was sent automatic... like: http://cnn.it/206Sotw#41781=royalcowboy http://goo.gl/GsrxFn#irjvuke=alwayzsmils
[09:33] <arunpyasi> cfhowlett: haha, no I mean.. if theres some keylogger in my PC ...
[09:33] <bekks> arunpyasi: No one needs to touch your Ubuntu for faking emails being send from your account.
[09:33] <cfhowlett> this ^^^
[09:33] <bekks> arunpyasi: a keylogger is even more unlikely.
[09:33] <arunpyasi> OK won't there be anything like there is so many ways a windows shell is owned and keyloggers are kept !
[09:34] <OerHeks> arunpyasi, choose a password larger than 20 characters .. oh, it is limited to 20, funny microsoft
[09:34] <bekks> arunpyasi: No one needs to touch your computer.
[09:35] <arunpyasi> bekks: OK I am just worried if they'll get my passwords of other banking/websites login..
[09:35] <peaceful> Hi installed Broadcom b43 wifi driver but it doestn work
[09:35] <bekks> arunpyasi: No one needs the password of your skype account for faking emails.
[09:35] <peaceful> I used: sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
[09:35] <bekks> arunpyasi: And use different passwords on different accounts.
[09:35] <cfhowlett> arunpyasi, but just for fun: you have enabled UFW, right?  and you could always run rkhunter to see if anything is hiding there.  plus your browswer should be set to anonymous browsing.  and you should always log out of hotmail/skype/whatever before you browse other pages.
[09:36] <samgoody> AFAIK, that's mailman 2 (and apt-get only has v2). I wanted mailman 3.  apt-get policy shows number that don't mean anything to me
[09:36] <samgoody> I already installed mailman 3, and was just wondering iff I was better off reinstalling with a dedicated user
[09:36] <OerHeks> peaceful, what bcm adapterexactly?
[09:36] <OerHeks> !bcm
[09:36] <bekks> samgoody: So pastebing the output of "apt-get policy mailman" please.
[09:37] <alkisg> apt-cache policy...
[09:37] <bekks> Indeed.
[09:37] <arunpyasi> ok bekks cfhowlett for the info :D
[09:37] <arunpyasi> I think I shall get this skype away from my home//
[09:38] <cfhowlett> peaceful, run this command in terminal and paste the output       lspci -vvnn | grep -A 9 Network | nc termbin.com 9999
[09:38] <samgoody> http://pastebin.com/JHtcTfHm
[09:38] <arunpyasi> my UFW is off
[09:38] <bekks> arunpyasi: That will solve the underlying problem, yes.
[09:38] <cfhowlett> arunpyasi, leave the front door open, thieves will feel invited
[09:39] <arunpyasi> :D
[09:39] <DeakinH> text here
[09:39] <bekks> samgoody: which features of mailman 3 do you need explicitly?
[09:40] <samgoody> I nice UI. I have been using groupserver for awhile now, and wanted to see what has happened on the mailman side.
[09:41] <samgoody> I found mailman2 atrocious.
[09:41] <samgoody> Oh, groupserver has the same setup - run not as root. And my chat server (openfire) similarly
[09:42] <peaceful> cfhowlett: http://termbin.com/adnx
[09:42] <cfhowlett> peaceful, bcm4311 is your chipset.  pretty sure you installed the wrong driver ... checking now
[09:43] <OerHeks> bcm4311, sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree # Then reboot and enjoy your wireless.
[09:43] <peaceful> cfhowlett: i installed proprietary
[09:43] <cfhowlett> peaceful, try overheks' solution
[09:43] <cfhowlett> *oerheks*
[09:43] <peaceful> what is that
 bcm4311, sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree # Then reboot and enjoy your wireless.
[09:44] <bekks> samgoody: How many users will you have to administer, for your mailman installation?
[09:44] <mohinder> What should i use to encrypt my ext4 partition? dm-crypt | TrueCrypt 7.1a or other app? I got there movies, music and some software. I want to mount that partition and share content under samba when system is booting.To authorize it by .. private key stored on connected usb-stick - when no usb-stick connected then disk is encryped, and samba cant mount it.
[09:45] <cfhowlett> mohinder, true was abandoned some time ago...
[09:45] <bekks> mohinder: Do you want to encrypt your /home only?
[09:45] <mohinder> i know, but i think still can download it on Windows (v 7.1a) and prob on linux as well
[09:45] <mohinder> about 'home
[09:46] <mohinder> about 'home' - nope, i need to encrypt 1 partition on another HDD
[09:46] <cfhowlett> mohinder, if you think using a non-supported solution is wise ... I have disappointing news for you.  veracrypt is a fork
[09:46] <bekks> mohinder: Your Windows encryption strategy is irrelevant at this point.
[09:46] <mohinder> i can encrypt there only 1 partition or entire HDD drive
[09:47] <samgoody> our mailing lists have up to ~2K subscribers, but there are only several users that I have to administer - each managing their own lists on their own domains. That's in groupserver, not sure how the setup of that will work in mailman.
[09:48] <bekks> samgoody: So basically you just have to administer a few users only. All the work will be done by your other users.
[09:48] <CinnamonRickRoll> many hands makes light work
[09:49] <Kalimer0> Failed to start samba.service: Unit samba.service is masked. how can i fix it
[09:49] <samgoody> yes.
[09:50] <zu> Hello everybody. I was here yesterday i have a problem with my internal mic and there is no way to solve it! Somebody can help me?
[09:50] <cfhowlett> !details | zu
[09:50] <mohinder> Kalimer0, try: sudo service smbd restart ; sudo service nmbd restart
[09:51] <bekks> samgoody: Then just stick with sudo apt-get install mailman
[09:52] <mohinder> zu@ you said there is no way to solve it, so i think that mic problem is un-solvable then :)
[09:52] <Kalimer0> mohinder: now its running and how do i make them start with system ?
[09:52] <zu> The mic seems to be perfect, in alsamixer it's all right, the volume it's all right, i don't have two mic and nothing wrong with the front right and left.
[09:52] <zu> mohinder, there is no way  for me to solve it :P
[09:53] <CinnamonRickRoll> is the issue persistant with all applications?
[09:53] <mohinder> Kalimer0, well let me check on google / doc and /etc/samba/smb.conf - cuz i rly dont remember right now how i did it :P
[09:53] <Kalimer0> mohinder: thanks
[09:54] <zu> Sorry everyone for my bad bad english, but i asked in the italian channel and some op guy banned me because me and my boyfriend in the same house with the same ip were in the channel -.-
[09:54] <mohinder> zu, the 2nd microphone i think its line-in, not real microphone
[09:55] <zu> yes, but i don't have it this mic ghost anyway :D
[09:56] <mohinder> Kalimer0, there is nothing about auto-starting in smb.conf... so going on google / brb
[09:56] <mohinder> zu, what a bad, bad op user there!
[09:57] <mohinder> to be onest i was banned once cuz i argue with op on some linux channel - and he banned me cuz, i was right, and he had no arguments on that topic what we were speaking. So then he banned me :D
[09:58] <cfhowlett> let's get back on topic, yes?
[09:58] <mohinder> Kalimer0, well, try this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1235863
[09:58] <zu> he was such a boaster, he asked explanations for let us stay in the channel. My bfriend going nuts and was the first to be banned. So yes, let's back to my problem, i'm desperate.
[09:59] <cfhowlett> zu, UBUNTU support is the topic here.
[09:59] <guili12000> bonjour
[09:59] <mohinder> I think to solve your problem is to add "something" to /etc/init.d/rc?? file
[09:59] <cfhowlett> !fr | guili12000,
[10:00] <javnut> how do I change dconf settings that have no schema
[10:00] <javnut> things like the compiz values?
[10:00] <zu> cfhowlett, sorry, you're right.
[10:01] <cfhowlett> zu no worries/moving on ...
[10:02] <zu> this is the result of the command lshw  http://paste.ubuntu.com/14543575/
[10:11] <zu> is anybody there?
[10:11] <cfhowlett> zu always
[10:11] <zu> mhh i poste with pastebinit the result of the command lshw
[10:12] <zu> Can be useful for help me with my problem?
[10:12] <cfhowlett> zu, restate the entire issue every 20 minutes or so.
[10:13] <zu> My mic is not working, seems all right, but it's not. I don't not what to do.
[10:13] <zu> if i do arecord i can only capture rustling
[10:14] <Kalimer0> mohinder: i broke it even more "Failed to start smdb.service: Unit smdb.service failed to load: No such file or directory."  "Failed to start nmdb.service: Unit nmdb.service failed to load: No such file or directory."
[10:14] <bramgn> zu: check the volume settings with pavucontrol
[10:14] <zu> i already did, it's all right, perfect
[10:17] <bramgn> zu: i know from own experience that pavucontrol can be confusing at times, i'd suggest double, triple check the settings
[10:17] <welovfree> Hello guys
[10:17] <zu> when you said, i checked and nothing, it's okay
[10:17] <welovfree> what is the best download manager for ubuntu, used to use idman in windows?
[10:18] <mohinder> zu, i got an idea. Can you check and be sure you connected your microphone to the proper hole in your PC? I mean to "microphone" hole, not to "line-in" hole.
[10:18] <mohinder> ?
[10:18] <cfhowlett> welovfree, there is no "best" of anything in ubuntu.  "best" is the tool YOU choose and learn.  see the ubuntu software center for suggestions
[10:19] <zu> Sorry mohinder, it's my internal mic
[10:19] <bramgn> zu: how do you determine whether the settings are correct, if i may ask? Did you f.ex. check whether any of the input devices are possibly muted?
[10:19] <mohinder> The color of"microphone hole' is pink, to microphone is blue i think
[10:19] <welovfree> cfhowlett, ok, thank you!
[10:19] <zu> i have a laptop
[10:19] <zu> bramgn, no, alsamixer it's all in 00
[10:21] <zu> http://imgur.com/3sUBUlv Pavucontrol settings
[10:21] <bramgn> zu: so it's an internal mic?
[10:22] <zu> bramgn, yes
[10:23] <bramgn> zu: what is the arecord command you used?
[10:24] <mohinder> zu, i had same problem with my PC (desktop) but it was long time ago, rly dont remember how i was fixing it, sry
[10:24] <arunpyasi> is there any tools to create iso from an ubuntu usb stick ?
[10:24] <mohinder> well
[10:24] <bramgn> arunpyasi: dd
[10:24] <mohinder> there are , and i think there are many
[10:24] <cfhowlett> arunpyasi, create an iso from the stick?  but why?
[10:24] <zu> bramgn, arecord test.wav
[10:25] <mohinder> Im not sure aobut ISO format, but also you can create 1-to-1 image by dd
[10:25] <arunpyasi> cfhowlett: for backup of bootable disk
[10:25] <arunpyasi> bramgn: can you provide me the command if possible ?
[10:25] <cfhowlett> !uck | arunpyasi,
[10:25] <mohinder> so for backup i will use dd
[10:26] <CinnamonRickRoll> Is the stick just bootable, or is ubuntu properly installed on the stick?
[10:26] <arunpyasi> cfhowlett: are you comedy me ? How I can use UCK to create iso from a bootable usb ?
[10:26] <zu> Sorry guys but i'm wondering, is there a sure way to know if the problem is software or hardware?
[10:26] <bramgn> arunpyasi: well, like mohinder said, it will not actually create an ISO-format file, but it will create an image you can "write" to another USB-disk or mount it locally.
[10:26] <arunpyasi> CinnamonRickRoll: the stick is bootable using ubuntu's iso
[10:27] <cfhowlett> arunpyasi, boot the .iso.  while you have a live session, customize your image then image it
[10:27] <arunpyasi> bramgn: OK.. so it will create .img file right ? can you provide me the command to create the image file ?
[10:27] <bramgn> arunpyasi: f.ex. dd if=/dev/sdb of=usbdisk.img bs=8M
[10:27] <CinnamonRickRoll> hmm, maybe I should rephrase, is it installed on the stick like you would do a normal install, or did you put the iso on using the 'make live usb' method
[10:28] <CinnamonRickRoll> doesn't r matter, just that there isn't much point (imo) in backing it up if its the latter
[10:28] <bramgn> arunpyasi: provided that sdb is the device name of your USB drive
[10:28] <arunpyasi> CinnamonRickRoll: I made the usb stick using unetbootin
[10:28] <arunpyasi> bramgn: ok thanks a lot man
[10:28] <zu>  Sorry guys but i'm wondering, is there a certain way to know if the problem is software or hardware?
[10:28] <arunpyasi> cfhowlett: bro, I don't need customization TBH.
[10:29] <CinnamonRickRoll> arun, hmm, well
[10:29] <bramgn> zu: hard to say at this point, i think that what you tested should indeed result in recording sound.
[10:29] <CinnamonRickRoll> sounds to me like its live usb, which means that when you shutdown all ur settings/changes/etc get lost
[10:29] <CinnamonRickRoll> or at least my live usb did/does
[10:29] <zu> only i can get is swish
[10:29] <bramgn> zu: do you have an external mic to test?
[10:30] <zu> nope :(
[10:30] <CinnamonRickRoll> zu, ur problem is the mic right?
[10:30] <bramgn> zu: while recording with arecord, check the "recording" tab of pavucontrol
[10:30] <zu> i only have the headphones with the mic
[10:30] <CinnamonRickRoll> imo try it with a numebr of diff applications, and if  possible different operating systems, and again, if possible devices
[10:33] <zu> bramgn,  the recording tab of pavucontrol works, the indicator moves even with the silence :(
[10:34] <bramgn> zu: and there's no hardware switch on your laptop that could possibly have muted the mic?
[10:34] <zu> bramgn, sorry for my bad explanation, i hope you got it :P
[10:34] <zu> bramgn, nope
[10:35] <bramgn> zu: is it possible to test with another OS? Or perhaps you know that it worked before on another OS?
[10:35] <cfhowlett> zu is there a switch on the MIC??
[10:35] <mohinder> zu, im 99% sure its the software (software, drivers, or configuration) problem. If the microphone is working on this laptop on antoher system - you can be sure its not hardware problem. How to check it? - well, try to download some ... live CD/DVD linux and boot up with it. Use ubuntu, fedora or  knoppix
[10:35] <mohinder> cuz those distribution are configurated to work
[10:36] <mohinder> Imho start from knoppix, then fedora, then ubuntu. Ubutnu as last one, cuz i belive you already got ubuntu right now
[10:36] <bramgn> i'd suggest fedora xfce livecd spin to keep things simple and try from there. Or what mohinder says.
[10:36] <mohinder> i agree
[10:37] <bhalash> Is Knoppix still a thing?
[10:37] <zu> bramgn, i sent my laptop to the asus support, and they change my hdisk putting on it windows. i changed immediatly with ubuntu 15.10 but i didn't try the mic with windows.
[10:38] <zu> bramgn, before the change of hdisk the mic worked just fine.
[10:39] <mohinder> zu, maybe those idiots on support just un-plugged the cable inside of it then
[10:39] <mohinder> And im saying "idiots" cuz ... i know few ppl from service support and i know what kind of ppl they are
[10:39] <bramgn> zu: could you paste the output of 'pacmd list-sources'
[10:40] <zu> bramgn,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/14543842/
[10:41] <zu> mohinder,  this in my concern
[10:41] <zu> mohinder,  this is my concern *
[10:43] <bramgn> zu: seems to be alright
[10:44] <Newb> Hello
[10:44] <zu> bramgn, o my god
[10:44] <bramgn> zu: ?
[10:44] <mohinder> bhalash, well Knoppix is still working, he got everything pre-configurated, and to be onest long time ago i was thinking its the best ever distro on the World - hehe. But... in those days i know much less than now, and now i know almost nothnig :D
[10:45] <zu> bramgn, i'm going crazy, see? It seems all right and no sound
[10:46] <welovfree> I want to use emacs for programming but I want to know if there is a way to add some feature to make things easier, like suggestions, and auto closing...etc
[10:46] <bramgn> zu: what asus model do you have? Maybe googling the name of the laptop in combination with linux might yield some similar results, if indeed it is a software issue
[10:46] <welovfree> something like what sublime text is offering but for emacs
[10:47] <mohinder> welovfree, i thing that quesition you should ask on some IT programmers forum
[10:47] <zu> bramgn, asus f550C
[10:47] <mohinder> im using Eclipse | IDEA and NetBeans  - so i cant help you
[10:48] <Newb> Guys i got a question. The wiki vmware page its not possible but u guys might think otherwise ?! I'am trying to get my vmware kali linux to see my inside wireless card from my laptop but it doesn't pick it up i looked on the internet for alternatives and they gave me external wifi cards but now my question. Why can't i use my wifi card? i know u guys get this question alot ":S
[10:48] <bramgn> zu: you said asus support changed the harddisk? Can you check whether they needed to take the laptop all apart or perhaps just a small lid that covers the harddisk?
[10:48] <JyZyXEL> how do you set up a timeout for a CIFS mount, so that a unavailable CIFS mount doesn't freeze the whole system?
[10:48] <JyZyXEL> (because the mount point becomes blocking)
[10:49] <cfhowlett> Newb, kali linux is not ubuntu and is not supported here.  sorry. go to their site for support
[10:49] <cfhowlett> !kali > newb
[10:49] <mohinder> i think he is askingmore about configuration of vmware than linux distro
[10:49] <bramgn> JyZyXEL: 'umount -l /mountpoint' should take care of unresponsive cifs mounts, provided that doesn't happen all the time
[10:50] <JyZyXEL> bramgn: yeah, indeed it does, but wouldn't it be great to automate it!
[10:50] <JyZyXEL> i hate having to manually go into a terminal to execute that command just so that i can get my desktop unfrozen
[10:50] <Newb> ty anywhays : /
[10:50] <zu> bramgn, probably they take the laptop all apart, they changed also the mother board
[10:50] <mohinder> Newb, can you check is wifi card is seeying under that system under vmware?
[10:51] <JyZyXEL> because you can certainly freeze your whole Xorg because of that blocking mount point
[10:51] <bramgn> zu: :O my best bet is that they unplugged and forgot to plug the microphone
[10:51] <akik> JyZyXEL: is this happening only at restart/halt ?
[10:52] <JyZyXEL> akik: it ALSO happens then :)
[10:52] <JyZyXEL> so you cannot reboot if you have a unconnected CIFS mount mounted
[10:52] <mohinder> zu, dont think so, they just take and put another hard disk inside. The hard disk "panel" is under the laptop side, so i think they even had not much work with it
[10:52] <akik> JyZyXEL: i put the cifs mount into /etc/fstab and it's behaving well
[10:52] <JyZyXEL> because the mount point will block your restart
[10:53] <akik> JyZyXEL: yes. had that too and stopped using smb4k. then converted the mount to systemd service and still hung
[10:53] <zu> mohinder, trust me, they opened up the laptop, they change even the lcd display.
[10:53] <bhalash> mohinder: Surprised (and happy) to hear it still has a place in the world!
[10:53] <zu> bramgn, and then whyh when i do arecord i can hear rustling?
[10:53] <mohinder> ok then, so try with those live DVD distro what we suggested fedora & knoppix
[10:54] <JyZyXEL> akik: this problem dates back to when CIFS was still being worked on
[10:54] <JyZyXEL> the developers knew about it back then, but no one ended up doing anything
[10:55] <zu> bramgn, i should hear nothing.
[10:55] <bramgn> zu: i believe that's the automated volume control kicking up the volume, because it hears nothing, so after it has amplified to max, you'll actually hear the line noise
[10:55] <akik> JyZyXEL: i think with systemd and smb4k the problem is that the network interface is shut down before the cifs mount is unmounted
[10:55] <BUSY> if i didn't start a program from terminal is there still a way to check it's console output?
[10:55] <Newb> yes ralin RT5390R 802.11b/g/n 1x1 wi-fi Adapter
[10:55] <Newb> its a inside wireless card
[10:56] <Newb> Laptop wireless card
[10:56] <akik> JyZyXEL: try entering the mount info into /etc/fstab. it works fine that way
[10:56] <JyZyXEL> i have it in fstab
[10:56] <antii> hello~
[10:57] <bramgn> zu: it sounds familiar to me, where i tried to record something with the mic muted. The software tries to compensate, but all you get is the rustling sound you described
[10:57] <antii> im running a pptp server on ubuntu 14.04 and i can't seem to allow more than one connection per username.. im getting the following in the logs "pptp kernel: [ 9663.797735] pptpctrl[2022]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f3273f5045f sp 00007fffefa81618 error 4 in libc-2.19.so[7f3273eb3000+1bb000]" if someone else try to establish a pptp connection when someone is already in
[10:58] <bramgn> BUSY: not to my knowledge, unless the program in questoin has some kind of logging facility
[10:59] <gytdau> After a month or so of using Ubuntu, Ubuntu starts to randomly crash sometimes. Everything just freezes, except the cursor. I tried to use the Sys Rq key but it doesn't look like it helps.
[10:59] <gytdau> I thought the culprit was Chrome originally, but after switching to Firefox it still happens.
[10:59] <zu> bramgn, i just tried with another laptop with ubuntu with the mic mute. We can't hear Nothing at all, not even rustling.
[10:59] <zu> bramgn, but we don't have in that laptop pulseaudio running because it's ubuntu server
[11:00] <bramgn> zu: how did you mute?
[11:00] <bramgn> zu: if i understand correctly, your non-functional mic isn't muted, just not connected
[11:00] <gytdau> Is there any way to debug applications and see if there were any major errors or something before the computer completely crashed?
[11:00] <cfhowlett> gytdau, check your logs
[11:00] <mohinder> gytdau logs
[11:01] <gytdau> Where are those supposed to be?
[11:01] <mohinder> thgere:  /var/log/*
[11:01] <mohinder> Now you will got the job to discover with one of the files you are interested
[11:02] <zu> bramgn, i don't know it simply doesn't work (it's not mute but i'm not sure it's unplugged)
[11:03] <zu> bramgn, but on another laptop with ubuntu server i can't hear anything by trying to mute the mic and recording
[11:03] <gytdau> Does anyone know what file I'm supposed to be checking, and what I'm supposed to be checking for?
[11:03] <zu> bramgn, so i guees it's not unplugged
[11:03] <bekks> gytdau: Look at the system logs in /var/log/
[11:03] <mohinder> zu, on the server PC your sound card can be mutted in BIOS - i did like that on my LAN server
[11:04] <zu> mohinder, no, it works properly (so it's not muted). I just muted it via alsamixer to check it out if I can hear anything with arecord, which I don't.
[11:05] <zu> mohinder, I'd also check the BIOS on my laptop, but I didn't found anything
[11:05] <zu> *find
[11:05] <mohinder> gytdau: i dont know, but start from: kern.log, syslog, dmsg
[11:05] <cfhowlett> gytdau, dmesg
[11:05] <bramgn> zu: if you mute with alsamixer or pulseaudio, then recording will indeed be completely silent. It's a software mute.
[11:06] <gytdau> OK, will check.
[11:06] <antii> omg typ nvm..
[11:06] <bramgn> zu: but if there's a physical switch on the mic, or the wires not actually connected, then it will result in noise, because the software thinks it's just very low volume and tries to crank it up.
[11:06] <mohinder> zu, with laptop BIOS there is another story, usually the SETUP is very very .. how to say it in english.. "tiny"
[11:07] <zu> bramgn, I may have misunderstood, but did you set your mic mute but still hear rustling with arecord?
[11:07] <mohinder> most of usefull options are cutted out
[11:07] <zu> ah
[11:07] <bramgn> zu: i can try it for you
[11:08] <gytdau> Are the logs cleared on reboot?
[11:08] <bramgn> zu: completely silent after muting in pulseaudio
[11:09] <mohinder> gytdau: no
[11:09] <mohinder> at least not all of them. Some of them are just renamed to another file: syslog.1  or others
[11:09] <urbanendeavour> Has anyone got Go CD installed on Ubuntu?
[11:09] <clamiax> hi there
[11:09] <mohinder> dmesg.0
[11:11] <zu> so that idiots of asus supporte messed up my microphone??
[11:11] <OerHeks> urbanendeavour, never heard of that, needed to search for it, it is not in our repos, is it?
[11:11] <urbanendeavour> It is but it fails to start
[11:12] <OerHeks> urbanendeavour, no it isn't.
[11:12] <urbanendeavour> Sorry it isn't you have to add a repo
[11:12] <bramgn> zu: it would seem that way
[11:13] <clamiax> fucking ASUS support which also force users to accept their retarded privacy flag
[11:13] <zu> bramgn, are you still think that is a software problem?
[11:13] <cfhowlett> clamiax, chill out and cease profanity immediately.
[11:14] <cfhowlett> !language > clamiax
[11:14] <bramgn> zu: no, i believe it's a hardware issue
[11:14] <clamiax> chowlett: I can be even wors
[11:15] <clamiax> *worse
[11:15] <cfhowlett> and you can be ignored and/or banned for violating the guidelines.  choose.
[11:15] <zu> bramgn, fword  :(
[11:15] <clamiax> cfhowlett: can you point me to the guidelines you are referring to, please?
[11:15] <cfhowlett> !guidelines > clamiax
[11:16] <OerHeks> urbanendeavour, they have a heavy documentation, https://www.go.cd/documentation/user/current/index.html
[11:16] <OerHeks> clamiax, simple, keep this channel family friendly, thanks.
[11:17] <clamiax> cfhowlett: I can't find anything about "chilling out" or "ceasing profanity".
[11:17] <Sebastien> stop swearing
[11:17] <clamiax> Nor about what's wrong with the word "fucking".
[11:17] <Sebastien> how hard is that?
[11:17] <cfhowlett> !ops | clamiax,
[11:17] <zu> bramgn, i know i have to pay for a problem that they caused?
[11:18] <Myrtti> *sigh*
[11:18] <urbanendeavour> OerHeks, this is what I was using. there is no troubleshooting section.
[11:18] <urbanendeavour> it is supposed to work out of the box
[11:20] <clamiax> !ops ! cfhowlett
[11:20] <clamiax> !ops | cfhowlett
[11:20] <Myrtti> clamiax: please don't
[11:20] <OerHeks> urbanendeavour, they have a channel here on #freenode, join #gocd
[11:20] <clamiax> Cool.
[11:20] <bramgn> zu: if i were you i would do more testing
[11:20] <jophish> When I plug in my speakers ubuntu gives me a popup every time
[11:20] <zu> bramgn, like?
[11:20] <jophish> it's very annoying
[11:20] <bramgn> zu: different OS / livecd's, external mic
[11:20] <jophish> is there a way to disable this?
[11:20] <zu> bramgn, good point
[11:21] <cfhowlett> jophish, hardware issue not software issue.  not an ubuntu issue.
[11:21] <cfhowlett> jophish, sorry wait, I read wrong
[11:22] <cfhowlett> jophish, you can edit "notifications" to change appaearance and time.  not sure where/how to edit notification triggers ....
[11:22] <CinnamonRickRoll> I have to agree with jophish, many of the ubuntu pop-ups r a pain, but I'm p sure u can disable them from somewhere in settigns, altho I haven't actually looked
[11:22] <bramgn> zu: good luck
[11:22] <zu> bramgn, for external mic could i use the mic of the headphones? like i don't know..the headphones of a smartphone?
[11:23] <bramgn> zu: that depends if your laptop supports that type of jack, which usually combines output and input into one plug
[11:23] <Mrokii> Hello. some months ago I installed two clipboard-managers (Diodon and CopyQ) to test them. But a few weeks ago (possibly after upgradeing to 15.10) they both seemed to stop working to register clipboard-entries. What I mean is that the clipboard itself works as usual, copy-paste works as usual, but nothing of it is in the list of both clipboard-managers. And I have no clue why.
[11:24] <bramgn> zu: but it can't hurt trying
[11:24] <urbanendeavour> OerHeks, quite rights thanks
[11:24] <zu> bramgn, i tried in unprofessional way, and seems not working
[11:24] <urbanendeavour> How can I search for channels from the command line with wildcards?
[11:25] <jophish> I don't remember getting it using 15.04 or 15.10, so I might try upgrading to those again
[11:25] <jophish> although that was a catastrophe last time
[11:25] <bekks> !alis | urbanendeavour
[11:25] <cfhowlett> !alis > urbanendeavour
[11:25] <Sebastien> cfhowlett pls stop
[11:25] <bramgn> zu: i think it should in any case detect whether something's connected, if not, then that could be another pointer that the port is internally not connected.
[11:25] <Sebastien> sorry, typo
[11:26] <cfhowlett> Sebastien, ??
[11:26] <Sebastien> clamiax, pls stop
[11:26] <clamiax> Sebastien: stop doing what? o.O
[11:26] <cfhowlett> Sebastien, please report channel abuse to #ubuntu-ops
[11:26] <Aww> how do I get Ubuntu to stop trying to uninstall every package on my computer when I do apt-get -f install ?
[11:27] <bekks> Aww: So what did you do in the past? Try to upgrade, cancelled it?
[11:27] <Aww> bekks, its been broken for some time. I feel its time I get it fixed. I can't remember what I did but yeah thats most likely it
[11:28] <zu> bramgn, i tried with the headphones, nothing, i can't hear anything. In the hole of the headphones there is a draw of headphones and mic..so i think support both in one hole
[11:28] <cfhowlett> Aww, try this apt-get -s -f install and see what ubuntu is trying to do
[11:29] <Aww> this is what it kicks back when I try to install something http://paste.ubuntu.com/14544198/
[11:29] <Aww> cfhowlett, kk
[11:30] <bramgn> zu: can you notice a different with pavucontrol in the input devices tab when you connect the headphones?
[11:30] <Aww> cfhowlett, it wants to remove all my packages :|
[11:30] <cfhowlett> Aww, paste it
[11:31] <Aww> cfhowlett, too large to get everything but http://paste.ubuntu.com/14544207/
[11:31] <bekks> !pastebinit > Aww
[11:32] <zu> bramgn, yes, in the capture tab with the headphones there is no movement, when i try without headphones, the red light goes back and forth
[11:32] <cfhowlett> Aww, should be those package need replacement.  lets' see:  apt-cache policy libcrack | pastebinit
[11:32] <Aww> bekks, I would have to be able to install packages to install that ;)
[11:32] <zu> bramgn, strange uh?
[11:33] <Aww> cfhowlett, can't locate libcrack
[11:34] <kolteq> hello guys, can anyone recommend a free vpn to me that i can you in china on ubuntu based distro please
[11:34] <cfhowlett> kolteq, wrong channel to ask.  see reddit.com/r/china for suggestions
[11:35] <bramgn> zu: what about the drop-down menu right before it says "Port:"
[11:35] <bramgn> zu: in my case it detects that i'm connecting my headphones
[11:37] <Aww> so any ideas on how to unfuck this :D
[11:38] <bekks> Aww: Pastebin apt-cache policy libcrack please.
[11:38] <CinnamonRickRoll> could we keep the cussing to a minimum :)
[11:38] <zu> bramgn, it say speakers and heandphones
[11:38] <Aww> bekks, N: Unable to locate package libcrack
[11:38] <Aww> thats all it says
[11:39] <vamadir> why in ubuntu 14.04 not working  default screen recorder?  shift+alt+ctrl+r
[11:39] <bramgn> zu: Does it say "unplugged" when you unplug?
[11:39] <bekks> vamadir: You need to install a recording software before, dont you?
[11:40] <zu> bramgn, yes!
[11:40] <cfhowlett> vamadir, find one and install it.
[11:40] <derener> libcrack2 is the correct name
[11:40] <cfhowlett> !recordmydesktop > vamadir
[11:40] <vamadir> bekks, realy? I think this function BY DEFAULT AT GNOME SHEL
[11:41] <bekks> vamadir: No need to shout around.
[11:41] <Aww> yeah I have libcrack2
[11:41] <bekks> Aww: apt-cache policy librcrack2 ...
[11:42] <Aww> bekks, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14544262/
[11:43] <bekks> Aww: Are you using Debian?
[11:43] <cfhowlett> spelling ...
[11:44] <Aww> bekks, yes but we can pretend I'm using Ubuntu as im sure the solution would be the same
[11:44] <bekks> Aww: No we cannot. Proceed to the Debian support please.
[11:44] <OerHeks> Aww, libcrack2 is not in our repositories, debian only ..
[11:44] <Aww> ._.
[11:44] <bramgn> zu: so at least that works, i would assume then an external mic will work
[11:44] <Aww> what does libcrack2 have to do with the broken packages?
[11:45] <bekks> Aww: Ask the Debian support.
[11:45] <cfhowlett> Aww, ubuntu is not debian.  debian is not ubuntu.  ask debian for debian support.
[11:45] <zu> bramgn, probably. anyway, i need to try. Thank you sooo much for you time! I appreciate it!
[11:46] <OerHeks> Aww, funny, you post results with ubuntu packages, but you run debian.. no wonder your system is unstable,
[11:47] <JyZyXEL> is there a backup cloud service provider for linux that sends the user a empty hard drive for the initial upload?
[11:47] <bekks> JyZyXEL: Most likely not.
[11:48] <JyZyXEL> its going to be really hard to backup 10 terabytes over a 1 Mbit/s link :D
[11:48] <bekks> JyZyXEL: And how long will it take to restore it, in case of a total loss? 3 years?
[11:48] <JyZyXEL> bekks: i would just order the data in mail
[11:49] <bekks> JyZyXEL: And shutdown the company for three years? :)
[11:49] <carl_> I'm trying to set a fully qualified domain name in the hosts file but it's not working, should 127.0.1.1 be the hostname?
[11:49] <JyZyXEL> or i could download it with someones fast internet connection
[11:49] <bekks> JyZyXEL: So the outage will be just one year, or 6 months.
[11:50] <bekks> JyZyXEL: I'd really redesign that failing-by-design backup concept :)
[11:50] <bramgn> zu: np, good luck
[11:50] <zu> thanks everybody! to the next absurd problem!
[11:50] <zu> bramgn, thanks!
[11:50] <JyZyXEL> bekks: well with a 100 Mbit/s connection, it would take less than 2 weeks to recover
[11:50] <akik> JyZyXEL: azure and crashplan have that kind of "hard drive import" service where you can send them your hard disk
[11:51] <Aww> bekks, cfhowlett OerHeks despite what you guys claim I fixed the issue by following a guide on Ubuntu forums. Turns out debain and ubuntu have more in common than you think ;)
[11:51] <bekks> JyZyXEL: Less than two weeks? :D 13 days too long.
[11:51] <JyZyXEL> akik: thank you! i will have to check them out
[11:51] <JyZyXEL> bekks: its still better than _never_
[11:51] <Aww> regardless thanks for the help o/
[11:51] <pmaxk> clear
[11:51] <bekks> JyZyXEL: Most likely, 14 days outage will be enough to entirely ruin the company.
[11:52] <whiteghost> ubuntu is debian base similar but not the same
[11:52] <JyZyXEL> what company
[11:52] <bekks> JyZyXEL: Are you trying to backup 10TB privately? :)
[11:52] <JyZyXEL> yes
[11:53] <JyZyXEL> its almost 20 years of my life all stored digitally without proper backups :D
[11:53] <bekks> I'd just buy a NAS :)
[11:53] <JyZyXEL> it is a nas
[11:53] <cfhowlett> oh, well then!  nothing critical ...
[11:54] <JyZyXEL> id love to back the damn thing into the cloud
[11:56] <JyZyXEL> everyone always talks about how important it is to have good backups, but it's not really very easy when you got 1 Mbit/s upload and terabytes of data :P
[11:56] <bekks> JyZyXEL: So create a local backup.
[11:56] <JyZyXEL> i have a local mirror
[11:56] <vbotka> carl_, "Edit /etc/hostname for permanent change" in the SET NAME section of man domainname might be a hint
[11:57] <JyZyXEL> but even if i converted it into a local backup, it still isn't a proper backing up scheme
[11:57] <JyZyXEL> house could burn down or get robbed or raided
[11:57] <bekks> JyZyXEL: Then get a faster internet connection.
[11:57] <OerHeks> JyZyXEL, go find a provider that sends you a harddrive then? this is not really a ubuntu support issue.
[11:58] <JyZyXEL> OerHeks: yup, thats the plan! i just figured someone on this channel might know of a service like that, and so they did
[11:58] <JyZyXEL> (akik mentioned Azure and CrashPlan)
[11:59] <JyZyXEL> also i was thinking of doing variable block length deduplication
[11:59] <bramgn> JyZyXEL: you might also want to have a look at amazon glacier
[11:59] <JyZyXEL> to get very bandwidth efficient
[12:00] <derener> Azure is very expensive
[12:01] <cfhowlett> derener, cheaper than replacing irreplaceable stuff though
[12:01] <JyZyXEL> the cost of getting a faster internet was a multi-thousand euro proposition
[12:02] <bgardner> JyZyXEL: Buy two sets of external drives.  Back up everything to one set and stick it safe deposit.  Every month, trade sets with the safe deposit.  Repeat forever.
[12:03] <JyZyXEL> that is the only choice if this internet thing doesn't pan out
[12:04] <vbotka> carl_, yes  "The recommended method of setting the FQDN is ... /etc/hosts" in  THE FQDN section of man hostname
[12:04] <peaceful> Hi installed Broadcom b43 wifi driver but it doestn work
[12:04] <cfhowlett> peaceful, we told you earlier that was the wrong one ...
[12:05] <peaceful> its not wrong one
[12:05] <bekks> peaceful: How do you know?
[12:05] <peaceful> because i checked
[12:05] <bekks> peaceful: Where and how?
[12:06] <peaceful> i have BCM4311
[12:06] <CinnamonRickRoll> theres a large post for ubuntu wifi drivers
[12:06] <CinnamonRickRoll> peaceful
[12:06] <CinnamonRickRoll> try suspending and the resuming
[12:06] <CinnamonRickRoll> u might find ur wifi card is working
[12:06] <peaceful> CinnamonRickRoll: i tried sudo modprobe wl
[12:06] <peaceful> and sudo modprobe b4
[12:06] <peaceful> and sudo modprobe b43
[12:06] <CinnamonRickRoll> my wifi is like that with broadcom, it doesn't work until after i suspend and resume
[12:07] <Spitfire5> Hello world! How to install tune2fs for Ubuntu? Aptitude don't see this pack!
[12:07] <peaceful> i installed Broadcom STA Wireless driver and tried open source b43
[12:07] <CinnamonRickRoll> *shrugs* i know v little about this stuff, so all I can suggest is the suspend/resume method
[12:07] <peaceful> CinnamonRickRoll: really
[12:07] <derener> ppeaceful try lsmod |grep b4
[12:07] <peaceful> derener: it shows nothing
[12:07] <safeith> #ubuntu-ir
[12:08] <peaceful> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[12:08] <cfhowlett> peaceful, then you should read again  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#Broadcom_STA_Wireless_driver_.28Proprietary.29
[12:08] <cfhowlett> see "for chip ..." section
[12:08] <peaceful> cfhowlett:  i did as it say
[12:09] <peaceful> it doesnt even show that i have wifi networks
[12:09] <akik> Spitfire5: it's in e2fsprogs package
[12:09] <cfhowlett> peaceful, it says Broadcom STA wireless driver ... NOT b43
[12:09] <peaceful> cfhowlett: yes i installed it
[12:10] <cfhowlett> you installed what?
[12:10] <Spitfire5> akik thank you
[12:11] <derener> peaceful the kernel module isn't loaded
[12:11] <peaceful> cfhowlett: STA driver
[12:11] <peaceful> derener: i did "sudo modprobe wl"
[12:11] <derener> you must either load it or reboot <--- it auto loads if it is installed correctly
[12:11] <peaceful> derener: i did restart and it didnt loard :(
[12:12] <Bendr> My display goes black for seconds and come back to an unresponding state, i think the problem is in the graphic card driver or in the graphic card itself, i have ATI Readon 5054, is there any way i can fix this?
[12:13] <derener> what does modprobe b43 return?
[12:13] <peaceful> Bendr: its hard to fix something in linux if you are not smart in it :P
[12:13] <derener> modprobe b43 is the correct command
[12:13] <peaceful> derener: i did it
[12:13] <bekks> derener: his hardware is not supported by that driver.
[12:14] <bekks> derener: he has been told multiple times.
[12:14] <Bendr> peaceful, i'm wondering how one can be smart
[12:14] <MonkeyDust> peaceful  you get smart, by learning, like always
[12:14] <peaceful> lsmod |grep b4 b43                   369680  0  bcma                   46408  1 b43 mac80211              560429  1 b43 cfg80211              430030  3 wl,b43,mac80211 ssb                    56668  2 b43,ssb_hcd
[12:14] <peaceful> Bendr: read a book :) linuxcommand.org :)
[12:14] <derener> does it work now?
[12:14] <peaceful> derener: partially
[12:15] <peaceful> derener: it doesnt show up my wifi network in fact in only shows 2 networks found, usually it finds more than 10
[12:15] <peaceful> Bendr: when it comes to hardware problems - its easier to install windows than to fix them in linux ;) (IN MY HUMBLE OPINION )
[12:16] <Bendr> peaceful, is there any specific answer to my question or just i have to read about cd and grep?
[12:16] <peaceful> Bendr: nah you just learn linux a bit there. i havent read it yet :)(
[12:16] <cfhowlett> peaceful, 32 bit or 64 bit ubuntu???
[12:16] <peaceful> 32 bti
[12:17] <cfhowlett> peaceful, VERY FIRST hit on this page.  read and heed.  https://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11
[12:17] <Bendr> peaceful, i'm not as bad as you think with linux, i just want some help because a lot of people suffering with ATI driver's on ubuntu
[12:17] <peaceful> derener: i dont know why it doesnt load wl driver
[12:18] <bekks> peaceful: Because you are using b43.
[12:18] <peaceful> Bendr: i also have ATI driver and im suffering no way around it
[12:18] <peaceful> bekks: Broadcom STA driver is for my BCM4311
[12:18] <peaceful> worked before
[12:18] <bekks> peaceful: then why are you using b43?
[12:18] <peaceful> bekks: because wl not working now
[12:18] <cfhowlett> peaceful, exactomundo!  ^^^^^
[12:18] <bekks> peaceful: and b43 is not the correct one.
[12:19] <cfhowlett> peaceful, that doesn't mean change the driver!
[12:19] <peaceful> bekks: you are only confusing me
[12:19] <Bendr> peaceful, i'm wondering if removing it would help because it's a discrete GPU
[12:19] <bekks> peaceful: You are confusing yourself. Do not use b43. Incorrect driver.
[12:19] <derener> peaceful maybe you messed with the wifi files?
[12:19] <derener> does the live cd work?
[12:19] <cfhowlett> peaceful, you had a working driver.  for no good reason, you changed to a non-functional driver.  b43 is wrong.  install linux sta 32 bit
[12:20] <peaceful> i installed linux sta
[12:20] <cfhowlett> how?  and why do you keep saying you have install b43??
[12:22] <derener> i too recommend using whatever they tell you
[12:22] <derener> i just gave you another command to try
[12:23] <derener> peaceful: if the livecd works fine then you have messed up your installation
[12:23] <Firefly67> I upgraded firefox and my add-ons and bookmarks have disappeared. How do I restore them from my old profile folder, which I saved in .mozilla.old?
[12:24] <peaceful> derener: livecd doesnt load bcm4311 drivers
[12:24] <cfhowlett> Firefly67, booksmarks > import
[12:24] <bramgn> Firefly67: did they disappear after you moved your .mozilla directory to .mozilla.old?
[12:25] <MonkeyDust> Firefly67  bookmarks > show all > import
[12:26] <Firefly67> yes, I think so, I followed some online instructions which said move .mozilla to .mozilla.old, then install/upgrade. now I have lost my bookmarks and add-ons
[12:26] <bramgn> upgrading firefox should not result in losing your bookmarks and addons
[12:26] <bramgn> Firefly67: okay, i suppose it has now created a new .mozilla directory. Close firefox, move that one away, say mv .mozilla .mozilla-new
[12:27] <bramgn> Firefly67: then move or copy the backup back to the original name, cp -a .mozilla.bak/ .mozilla/
[12:27] <bramgn> Firefly67: then start firefox again
[12:27] <Firefly67> ok, let me try that
[12:28] <Firefly67> I already tried cp -r and that might have messed up even more, but let me try what you're saying
[12:28] <bramgn> Firefly67: .mozilla.old i meant
[12:28] <derener> peaceful make a reboot after you install sta
[12:28] <Munster> if sync is used on firefox then the bookmarks etc would all be saved
[12:28] <bramgn> Firefly67: okay, but you have a backup sitting at .mozilla.old/ yes?
[12:28] <peaceful> its already installed derener
[12:28] <Firefly67> yes
[12:29] <Firefly67> yeah it's back!
[12:29] <bramgn> Firefly67: move the current one, copy your backup to .mozilla/. That should fix it.
[12:29] <Firefly67> thanks!
[12:30] <bramgn> great
[12:30] <Firefly67> I can't see the reddit enhancement suite/css add-on though
[12:31] <Firefly67> it shows up on the list of add-ons that couldn't be verified
[12:31] <cfhowlett> Firefly67, take it up with mozilla/firefox support.   not an ubuntu issue
[12:32] <Firefly67> yeah I am on the #firefox channel too, no response there, so I came here
[12:32] <peaceful> cfhowlett, derener: http://postimg.org/image/s7q0y0bm3/
[12:34] <cfhowlett> peaceful, and you completely removed b43?
[12:35] <peaceful> cfhowlett:  nop how to do it?
[12:36] <derener> modprobe -r b43
[12:36] <peaceful> derener: yep i did that
[12:38] <janeer> Hi there
[12:39] <derener> i read in ubuntu forums that someone blacklisted b43 and then wl started working
[12:42] <peaceful> sta does it automatically
[12:44] <derener> what is the error when you modprobe wl?
[12:44] <peaceful> no error
[12:46] <peaceful> ok i removed b43
[12:47] <peaceful> still doesnt work
[12:47] <clamiax>  :part #ubuntu
[12:47] <clamiax> ops
[12:47] <MonkeyDust> clamiax  /part
[12:50] <peaceful> :/
[12:51] <bekks> peaceful: Where and how do you look for errors after modprobing?
[12:51] <zteam> Hi all!
[12:51] <peaceful> bekks: yes hwo?
[12:51] <emi> hi ich kann bei meine menü, taskleiste nicht mehr sehen, nur bei meinem gastaccount. die oberfläche ist einfach leer, nur mit meinem desktop-hintergrund. kann mir jemand weiterhelfen? gerade eben ging es noch und ich habe nichts gemacht
[12:52] <peaceful> bekks: in terminal
[12:52] <MonkeyDust> !de
[12:53] <emi> danke!
[12:53] <zteam> I have a 32 GB usb pendrive which I intend to use to create a multi-boot usb pendrive with various linux distrubutions such as Kali, Ubuntu, boot-repair and kaspersky Antivirus
[12:53] <wahyu> hi guys
[12:54] <MonkeyDust> zteam  pendrive's MultiSystem can do that
[12:54] <zteam> which is the most reliable tool to use? and I want to be able to use persisent mode with Ubuntu and Kali to
[12:55] <MonkeyDust> zteam  http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/
[12:56] <wahyu> How do we install .deb using terminal if its located on media partition not in home?
[12:56] <zteam> MonkeyDust, I already tried that, but my pendrive refuses to boot any of the distros I tried (Kali and  Ubuntu)
[12:56] <wahyu> I use ubuntu DE gnome 3.10
[12:57] <zteam> MonkeyDust, and I know a that my computer should support Ubuntu
[12:58] <zteam> MonkeyDust, Ubuntu complains that it can't find the the iso, while Kali hangs at modprobing for my wifi-driver
[12:58] <MonkeyDust> zteam  so the question is not how to create a bootable usb, but how to make your pc boot from it
[12:58] <MonkeyDust> zteam  that sounds like a hardware or BIOS issue
[12:58] <raphaff26> syslinux -ma device
[12:59] <raphaff26> use qemu to test is is bottable
[13:01] <zteam> Monkey, no the laptop is able too boot Ubuntu just fine, If I install with UnetBootin for example, and it get's to the Multisystem menu and the thumbdrive as well
[13:03] <zteam> raphaff26, what does syslinyx -ma do?
[13:04] <MonkeyDust> wahyu  navigate to the folder and use dpkg -x [deb file]
[13:06] <raphaff26> first mb to boot the the device
[13:06] <derener> zteam try if the usb boots from virtualbox or qemu
[13:06] <derener> do not type that command
[13:07] <derener> maybe you will need that command later
[13:13] <raphaff26> syslinux -ma    (mbr and active aprtition)
[13:22] <hrob_> hi
[13:23] <hrob_> so I have an issue with 14.04 ... unity or the xserver crashes  when I create a new master pointer device
[13:23] <hrob_> I do this...   $ xinput create-master mymaster
[13:24] <hrob_> then $ xinput reattach mymouse_id  mymaster_id
[13:24] <hrob_> then move my mouse, and all goes bonkers
[13:24] <hrob_> xinput master slave pointer layout has been in xorg since I dont know when, but its before 2010
[13:24] <hrob_> so this sucks
[13:28] <egzon> hi
[13:33] <hihi> hi mates, is there any android app where I can host socks server?
[13:33] <hihi> i heard about jsocks
[13:34] <MonkeyDust> hihi  this is ubuntu support, not android
[13:34] <hihi> android is linux but ok :P
[13:34] <hihi> ;
[13:34] <hihi> ;p
[13:34] <bekks> hihi: Android is not Ubuntu.
[13:56] <red_> /whois $me
[14:14] <noelia> Hello everyone
[14:15] <SchrodingersScat> hello
[14:15] <noelia> I'm having some problems with my Wi-Fi internet connection
[14:15] <Munster> Hi
[14:15] <noelia> And Ubuntu 15.10
[14:15] <noelia> My Wi-Fi card is a Realtek RTL8188EE
[14:15] <noelia> The speed is too low.
[14:16] <jjjasper> define 'too low'?
[14:17] <noelia> It should be 25MB/sec. at least.
[14:17] <bekks> noelia: How do you know that?
[14:17] <noelia> And I'm getting 6MB/sec.
[14:17] <jjjasper> 25 megabyte per second? over wifi?
[14:17] <bekks> I strongly doubt that. :)
[14:18] <jjjasper> that being a wireless N card
[14:18] <noelia> bekks Because I have another computer with a wired connection and Ubuntu 15.10
[14:18] <jjjasper> wired connection
[14:18] <jjjasper> nuff said
[14:18] <bekks> noelia: Are we talking about MB or Mb?
[14:18] <jjjasper> bekks: megabytes apparantly ;)
[14:19] <bekks> noelia: Wired and wireless are totally different media, with totally different specifics.
[14:19] <jjjasper> 6MB/sec would be realistic over wireless N though
[14:19] <robb_nl> 6MB/s for wireless is not weird or low...
[14:19] <robb_nl> ^^
[14:19] <noelia> bekks Mbps
[14:19] <jjjasper> ever seen wifi doing >90mbit/sec?
[14:20] <jjjasper> even with super mimo 3x6 12-antenna stuff
[14:20] <noelia> www.speedtest.net gives me 10Mbps now
[14:20] <derener> those tests are affected by your isp
[14:21] <robb_nl> speedtest is to test your providers connection for you to the internet... NEVER do speedtest over  wifi... it is not reliable
[14:21] <bekks> noelia: Those tests test your internet connection, not your wifi connection.
[14:21] <jjjasper> try iperf with the correct parameters, should give a better idea
[14:21] <noelia> The thing is, I'm getting 85% percent of Wi-Fi signal
[14:22] <bekks> noelia: Signal strength does not necessarily tell you how fast your connection is.
[14:22] <bekks> noelia: So which Wifi standard do you use, 802.11a/b/g/n or whatever?
[14:22] <jjjasper> if at all, it's only an indicator
[14:23] <jjjasper> a "15% signal" wifi connection can be faster than a "85% signal" one
[14:24] <noelia> bekks How could I find out?
[14:24] <bekks> noelia: By looking into the settings of your Wifi router.
[14:24] <noelia> bekks Thank you
[14:26] <derener> speedtest.net tests how good signal your router has
[14:26] <derener> not how good your wifi signal is
[14:26] <Stinky_Feet> noelia: Try file transfers between your WiFi connected computer and the properly wired one. Move about, see changes in the alledged signal strength and the actual performance. If you have an Android device, install WiFi Analyzer.
[14:26] <jjjasper> derener: none of both really
[14:27] <bekks> derener: speedtest is irrelevant for wifi tests. As already have been pointed out.
[14:27] <jjjasper> irrelevant for wired even
[14:27] <bekks> Yeah.
[14:27] <jjjasper> well, it might be an usable grade
[14:27] <noelia> Stinky_Feet I do have WiFi Analyzer on my mobile phone.
[14:28] <bekks> noelia: Which is irrelevant for your Ubuntu wifi issue.
[14:28] <Stinky_Feet> noelia: Well then, look for congestion and move channels if needed.
[14:28] <funkyTon> Is there a docker 15.10 container ?
[14:28] <jjjasper> try to tap channel 1, 6 or 11
[14:29] <jjjasper> neighbouring channels cause more congestion than AP's on the same channel
[14:29] <jjjasper> eg if multiple people use 11, but there is nothing on 9/10
[14:29] <jjjasper> that's a better channel than none being on 6, but multiples being on 4-5 and 7-8
[14:29] <jjjasper> (ish)
[14:30] <Stinky_Feet> The only way to find out is to design a repeatable test and try/fal try again.
[14:30] <Munster> the default channel is 6 in our area for some reason ,and most users don't bother changing it, hence the congestion and slow wifi
[14:30] <jjjasper> hmm, to be fair
[14:30] <jjjasper> all being at 6
[14:30] <jjjasper> is better than being cluttered all over the spectrum
[14:31] <jjjasper> as the overlapping channels (eg 4/5 + 7/8, ish) cause more interference than AP's on the same channel
[14:31] <Munster> uhm, it gives user more room if they don't all use the same channel
[14:31] <opakavic> how is gaming with this LTS version of ubuntu
[14:32] <bekks> opakavic: Depends on the games.
[14:32] <opakavic> good if it has native support
[14:32] <Netmage> Hello, does anyone know where there is a application I could use to display address contacts via carddav (mailbox.org) ?
[14:33] <Netmage> s/where/if/
[14:39] <Stinky_Feet> Evolution is my one-stop solution. If that is not your thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_CalDAV_and_CardDAV_implementations
[14:43] <k-l> hello
[14:43] <noelia> Stinky_Feet Do you know how to set up a gmail account in Evolution?
[14:43] <noelia> Stinky_Feet I already did, but I'm doing something wrong...
[14:43] <noelia> My password doesn't work...
[14:44] <noelia> It says it's wrong...
[14:44] <noelia> And I can log in www.gmail.com with my gmail account.
[14:44] <noelia> Via web browser.
[14:45] <k-l> way
[14:45] <gala> is there a docker image for ubuntu wiley ?
[14:47] <Stinky_Feet> noelia: It should be very simple, it has predefined dialogues for gmail. Being simplified it removes control from the user, so when problems occur, they are more difficult to resolve. For authentication, you should get a request from google asking you to verify that Evolution/Gnome are allowed to access your account. I have only done this in Gnome and it worked. It might pop up as a message/dialogue without you noticing it (you will
[14:47] <Stinky_Feet>  have to put your focus on that pop-up manually)
[14:49] <k-l>  want to learn English, now with the translation. Who can teach me, and I l893646998@gmail.com Gmail thank you
[14:50] <k-l> I want to learn English, now with the translation. Who can teach me, and I l893646998@gmail.com Gmail thank you
[14:52] <Netmage> Thank you very much
[14:52] <k-l> I want to learn English, now with the translation. Who can teach me, and I l893646998@gmail.com Gmail thank you
[14:53] <opakavic> just watch the channel
[14:53] <lahaugen87> Plenty of language learning apps for smartphones
[14:53] <Stinky_Feet> noelia: In Gnome you set it up in the "Online accounts" setting in gnome-control-center. Evolution then picks it up.
[14:54] <noelia> Stinky_Feet I'm on Xubuntu 15.10
[14:54] <Stinky_Feet> noelia: Then you know more about your environment than I do...
[14:55] <k-l> Okay.
[14:56] <k-l> But it is difficult to learn English.
[14:57] <gala> k-l:  This is a linux channel. Can't help you with english in here
[14:57] <gala> try some tutorials online - youtube ??
[14:57] <nicolac> cionick
[14:58] <k-l> But I still don't understand.
[14:59] <MonkeyDust> k-l  type  /j #ubuntu-offtopic    if you want to learn english
[15:00] <xq_> Hey guys, can anyone help me with an issue on the forums? I've been an Ubuntu member for 5-6 years (xq@ubuntu.com) and I can't use SSO to login or register for the forums. My username is only two characters and it must be 3 for ubuntuforums (now, at least -- two used to be fine a long time ago). I can't change my username for Launchpad or SSO. Can I not use my LP/Ubuntu member account for the forums? :\
[15:01] <k-l> Well, slowly.
[15:01] <k-l> Tired of translation
[15:02] <lahaugen87> xq_ Checked if you have an email with a create new username link? Sites usually have that in chases like this
[15:02] <MonkeyDust> xq_  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2164369

[15:03] <k-l> Who can tell me, how do you learn English
[15:03] <MonkeyDust> k-l  stop
[15:03] <MonkeyDust> k-l  go to another channel, not here

[15:19] <maslen> Is it possible to override the CC passed with configure? For example, to use gcc for building most of a project, then switching to another compiler for building another file later, withoout re-running configure?\?

[15:26] <codedmart> If I am running a web server with systemd. How can I hot-reload restart it?
[15:27] <maslen> Stinky_Feet: Googling update-alternatives now, thanks.
[15:39] <Stinky_Feet> codedmart: systemctl status your.service
[15:40] <codedmart> Stinky_Feet That just shows me the status right?
[15:40] <Stinky_Feet> codedmart: sudo reload your.service
[15:40] <mta_> morning all
[15:40] <cyberpolice> hello. my computer isnt booting after grub. i just get a blank screen now. this is after i booted it with some changes to the area: new UPS system, new cable modem, moved wires etc, and after a sucsesfull reboot. 2nd or 3rd reboot im unable to boot after grub for some reason
[15:40] <codedmart> Stinky_Feet does that do a zero downtime (hot reload) of the web server?
[15:40] <Stinky_Feet> sorry sudo systemctl reload your.service
[15:41] <mta_> having a problem with screen turning off on laptop and monitor, is there a fix for this, ubuntu mate 15.04
[15:41] <Stinky_Feet> codedmart: Only the person who wrote the web server and the systemd unit file can answer that.
[15:42] <codedmart> Stinky_Feet That is an answer, :). I think I get it now.
[15:45] <maslen> Stinky_Feet: So if I wanted to create a parameter called 'custom_clang', I'd run: update-alternatives --install 'custom_clang' 'custom_clang' '/usr/local/bin/myclang' ?
[15:46] <mta_> .
[15:46] <maslen> And then I could run "update-alternatives --config custom_clang" to switch where custom_clang referred to ?
[15:46] <Stinky_Feet> maslen: I don't know, I have only used --configure, mainly to swap between different java versions.
[15:47] <mta_> having a problem with screen turning off on laptop and monitor, is there a fix for this, ubuntu mate 15.04
[15:47] <maslen> Stinky_Feet: Oh. poo.
[15:48] <Stinky_Feet> maslen: You are welcome.

[15:56] <eNclaw> Hello can anybody tell me in software center some app is for free but i cant download them because i have there buy button isnsted of install button
[15:56] <EriC^^> eNclaw: which app?
[15:56] <bekks> eNclaw: And what happens when clicking on "buy"?
[15:57] <eNclaw> "dofus" for example
[15:57] <bekks> eNclaw: Did you submit your credit card information anywhere, before?
[15:57] <eNclaw> no i dont
[15:57] <bekks> Then why are you afraid of clicking on that button? :)
[15:57] <kinker31> Hey guys, is there a way to have grub2 recognize efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi ?
[15:58] <eNclaw> because when i click buy it i need to fill informations about my credit card :D
[15:58] <kinker31> Grub2 says the file doesn't exist, when it actually does.
[15:58] <EriC^^> eNclaw: try sudo apt-get install dofus
[15:58] <EriC^^> in the terminal
[15:58] <bekks> kinker31: Did you install grub in EFI or non-EFI mode?
[15:58] <EriC^^> kinker31: try sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda for me
[15:59] <EriC^^> kinker31: ^ good point, also type dpkg -l | grep grub
[15:59] <eNclaw> when i try this its cant find dofus
[16:00] <EriC^^> !info dofus
[16:00] <EriC^^> typo?
[16:01] <bekks> EriC^^: No. https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/dofus/
[16:01] <EriC^^> odd, apt-cache search doesn't show it for me
[16:02] <bekks> EriC^^: Because its not in the repos.
[16:02] <kinker31> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14546210/
[16:02] <EriC^^> maybe cause it's proprietary?
[16:02] <wathek> is this a right channel to ask question about porting ubuntu mobile ?
[16:02] <bekks> EriC^^: Yeah, thats why it is an app.

[16:04] <Guest84318> What can I do?

[16:08] <EriC^^> pastebin sudo blkid /dev/sda2
[16:08] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  use   iwlist
[16:08] <pope> my mouse pointer widened
[16:08] <TheSkepticalBird> kk
[16:09] <obiwan> wtf
[16:09] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  wifi for a server? doesnt sound wise
[16:09] <kinker31> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14546294/
[16:10] <Stinky_Feet> tuxiano: I guess you are using a softphone. If you tell us which one, what version you are using, and how it is configured, someone might be able to help you.
[16:10] <EriC^^> kinker31: this is the uuid C098-8C05
[16:10] <kinker31> Ah. Thanks again!
[16:10] <EriC^^> no problem
[16:10] <pope> hallo
[16:10] <pope> my mouse pointer widened
[16:10] <TheSkepticalBird> I'm not installing it for use as a server. I want to be able to install whatever flavor of Ubuntu I want without having to use another iso image.
[16:11] <TheSkepticalBird> So... I'd do sudo apt-get install ubuntu/lubuntu/xubuntu etc.
[16:11] <pope> as I put it smaller?
[16:11] <pope> joder no hay nadie que hable español?
[16:11] <TheSkepticalBird> Anyway... the console where I attempted iwlist didn't work.
[16:12] <Stinky_Feet> !es
[16:12] <TheSkepticalBird> It said /bin/sh: iwlist not found
[16:12] <pope> ubottu:  thank you
[16:12] <TheSkepticalBird> kek
[16:13] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  probably because it's a server... try sudo apt install iwlist
[16:13] <TheSkepticalBird> kk
[16:13] <TheSkepticalBird> problem though... I attempted sudo earlier and it said /bin/sh: sudo not found.
[16:13] <TheSkepticalBird> I haven't really installed the OS yet...
[16:14] <TheSkepticalBird> I can't because my laptop isn't connected to the internet.
[16:14] <EriC^^> TheSkepticalBird: it's cause you're using sh, $PATH isn't set i guess
[16:14] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[16:15] <TheSkepticalBird> cat: can't open '/etc/issue': No such file or directory
[16:15] <BlackDash> nabend
[16:15] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  then it's not ubuntu
[16:15] <TheSkepticalBird> ?
[16:16] <bekks> TheSkepticalBird: Ubuntu ships with /etc/issue

[16:18] <TheSkepticalBird> I don't understand how it's not ubuntu.
[16:19] <pope> BlackDash:  see you private please
[16:19] <TheSkepticalBird> When I booted to the USB it had an option saying "Install Ubuntu Server" or something like that.
[16:19] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  yes, server is an installer
[16:19] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  desktop is a live session
[16:20] <MonkeyDust> so install first, then ask again
[16:20] <TheSkepticalBird> But I can't... the laptop isn't connected to the internet. I want to know how to connect it to the wifi so I can install it.
[16:21] <TheSkepticalBird> That's my issue.
[16:21] <TheSkepticalBird> I only have one Ethernet cable.
[16:21] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  great, then ypou don't need wifi
[16:21] <bekks> TheSkepticalBird: you dont need a network connection for installing ubuntu.
[16:21] <TheSkepticalBird> That's being used for the computer I'm currently typing on.
[16:21] <Stinky_Feet> TheSkepticalBird: The easiest solution is to connect it by cable. Once installed, you will have all the software needed to configure WiFi.
[16:22] <Stinky_Feet> Cables are cheap.
[16:22] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  or use wifi on this internet pc, and use the cable for the installation
[16:22] <pope> BlackDash:  are you goin?
[16:22] <TheSkepticalBird> -_- k... I guess I'll be back in a bit. Because I'll have to connect to wifi in order to install *ubuntu-Desktop.
[16:23] <TheSkepticalBird> MonkeyDust: err... this pc is a desktop with no hardware for Wifi.
[16:23] <MonkeyDust> TheSkepticalBird  don't use wifi during installation
[16:23] <bekks> TheSkepticalBird: then how are you expecting to use wifi, without wifi hardware?
[16:24] <ddnh> hi all, does anybody know how to access your photos in a Huawei Y5 from ubuntu?
[16:24] <Stinky_Feet> bekks: Two different computers :-)
[16:24] <TheSkepticalBird> bekks: what? This pc is a desktop... it already has Manjaro on it. I want to install Ubuntu on my laptop.
[16:24] <TheSkepticalBird> well... brb...
[16:26] <extraymond> Hi! How can I turn off catalyst driver temporarily? Is that possible by not loading the kernel module?
[16:26] <bekks> extraymond: Whats the issue behind that?
[16:27] <extraymond> bekks, in fglrx the desktop performance is bad, but I need opencl for 3D rendering. Would like switch between this based on different use case
[16:28] <bekks> extraymond: Stop the graphical environment, using lightdm stop, rmmod driver1, modprobe driver2, fix X configuration if necessary, start lightdm again.
[16:29] <extraymond> bekks,I'll try and see what I can find
[16:29] <martin1989> hi people
[16:30] <martin1989> does someone use mate desktop?
[16:30] <MonkeyDust> martin1989  that's a yes/no question ... what brings you here
[16:30] <martin1989> sorry..i'd like some neon theme for mate
[16:30] <martin1989> but i cant find any..

[16:31] <martin1989> man
[16:37] <extraymond> bekks, I'm back, without success
[16:37] <extraymond> bekks, can't modprobe radeon
[16:38] <bekks> Why not? Someone slapping your hands when trying to type it in?
[16:41] <extraymond> bekks, XD nope, it says "Error, kmod-module-insert-module..."
[16:49] <abhi_> Hey guys; How to install wireless driver in Ubuntu 14.04 when machine is not connected to internet
[16:50] <Lope> I bought 3 very similar LVDS laptop screens and 3 controller boards. I asked the seller to program the controller boards with firmware that would work on the 3 screens. (According to another seller, the firmware is interchangable between the 3 screens anyway). He labelled each controller accordingly. My screens are all LP171WU ... (1-TLA6, 3-TLB1, 3-TLB3). The seller botched the firmware for the 3-TLB* boards, they do not offer resolutions above 1280x720, but
[16:50] <Lope> if I add a custom res with my display driver, they work at 1920x1200. The two screens (3-TLB*) work with any of the 3 controller boards. The 1-TLA6 screen does not work with any of the controller boards. Initially it shows some weird blocks for 5 seconds, then it just shows a plain white screen (I am sending it an image over HDMI).
[16:50] <Lope> http://imgur.com/a/UzpOw does it look like a controller firmware problem or a screen damaged?
[16:51] <jogi> hallo an alle habe ein Problem  ich komme nicht auf die Website linuxmintusers.de der Server ist nicht erreichbar. Problem 2 ist das mein Firefox hat noch die version  4

[16:56] <Stinky_Feet> abhi_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptCdrom
[16:57] <sruli> hi, is there a difference in security for passphrase vs key on a luks partition?
[16:58] <abhi_> aah i have bootable USB
[16:59] <rali> Hello
[17:01] <no_gravity> Hello! My mouse pointer is stuck in drag/drop mode. An icon is stuck to it and neither left-click nor right-click do anything anymore. Any ideas how to fix it?
[17:02] <rali> My GPU keeps crashing each time i open the computer, but when i use in addition to my actual monitor another large one i have it doesn't do that and they both works just fine, is there any explanation to what's going on here?
[17:03] <UserUS> rali: It's a problem with the screen
[17:05] <Stinky_Feet> sruli: Yes. You have to make a compromize between security and usability. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Device_encryption#Keyfiles
[17:05] <rali> UserUS: i tried another screen and it does the same
[17:08] <rali> UserUS: my 72'' screen works just fine
[17:09] <rali> UserUS: also my small one actually does but only if it is used alongside with the large one
[17:09] <rali> i really don't know how this happening
[17:09] <UserUS> not sure then
[17:09] <UserUS> what os
[17:09] <rali> Ubuntu
[17:09] <rali> the same in Windows
[17:09] <UserUS> 14?
[17:10] <rali> 15.10
[17:10] <UserUS> That could possibly be it...but you said it's in the windows boot too?
[17:11] <rali> UserUS: yes, the same problem with Windows
[17:11] <rali> UserUS: what do you mean by possible be it?
[17:17] <UserUS> rali: maybe the other screen is labeled as 1
[17:17] <UserUS> and your screen is labeled as
[17:17] <UserUS> 2
[17:17] <Bendr> which means?
[17:17] <UserUS> when the other monitor is unplugged, it just displays a black sreen
[17:18] <sruli> Stinky_Feet: i read it, it does not say the pros/cons of passphrase vs key
[17:18] <Bendr> UserUS: yes, i know that, what's the point?
[17:19] <UserUS> that could be why
[17:20] <Bendr> UserUS: i'm using them as 'mirrored'
[17:20] <bids> i want a task manager
[17:20] <bids> i dont like ubuntu default tm
[17:20] <bids> which should i get?
[17:21] <Bendr> UserUS: the small one is connected using the old monitor connector the other is HDMI
[17:24] <deadmund> I submitted a bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1499556   but it seems to have stagnated.  Any suggestions on what I can do now?
[17:25] <Stinky_Feet> sruli: It is as safe as you make it. Use a passphrase - you store it in your brain and thus cannot be lost, but you are vulnerable to keyloggers, snoopers etc. Use a key file on a USB memorystick or similar and you are vunurable to theft, data loss etc. Use both and you are more secure, but you have to go through a bloody ordeal every time you have to access the data. The actual encryption does not change.
[17:25] <sruli> Stinky_Feet: thanks

[17:55] <Stinky_Feet> deadmund: I can only suggest things like looking into your BIOS settings on USB/RS-232/Wake On LAN signals. Make a CloneZilla backup and install a completely different distro and see if the problem remains.

[18:53] <physixer> can I install a package from ubuntu repository without sudo access, and in my home directory? (like ./configure --prefix=/home/physixer/local/package-name)
[18:54] <db`> Hi ppl
[18:54] <db`> Well, I just changed my default SSH port on ubuntu server from 22 to another one
[18:55] <db`> But I see, that few applications that use ssh to login, are not able to connect to the new port everytime
[18:55] <db`> I mean, they connect sometimes & they fail sometimes.
[18:55] <db`> any idea?
[18:56] <k1l_> db`: either they can work with a different port or not. but half/half doesnt make sense.
[18:56] <db`> exactly!
[18:56] <db`> but strangely it is.
[18:57] <db`> my server has 5 IP addresses
[18:57] <db`> the port change works with 1 IP address for a while & doesn't after some time.
[18:57] <db`> It works with another assigned IP for a while & like that..
[18:58] <db`> Is there anything wrong in my port selection? I have chosen 33022
[18:58] <db`> my putty works absolutely fine though
[18:58] <k1l_> what doesnt work?
[18:58] <k1l_> port should be fine
[18:58] <akik> db`: there's something else amiss. if you set sshd to port 33022 then it will be there
[18:59] <db`> Yes. But that software is discontinously working.
[18:59] <db`> over ssh protocol
[18:59] <Hetachi> Can anyone help me out with MYSQL remote connection problem?
[18:59] <k1l_> db`: make sure you reload the sshd. then it should use the new port only. so if its still at port 22 (or not working) there is something different making a mess. like some port forwarding or that software who connects has issues
[18:59] <db`> do I need to set any iptables issues for the new port?
[19:00] <db`> I just changed port & reloaded ssh.
[19:00] <Hetachi> I am running a steam server, which attempts to connect to an external MYSQL, but it is not able to, and I can't get any log files, does ubuntu requires anything to allow remote connections? ufw is not enabled, and I am out of ideas
[19:00] <db`> didn't bother to update iptables coz I can connect to that port using putty
[19:01] <k1l_> i dont know what that software is that got issues and i dont know what rules your iptables or network got there.
[19:01] <Stinky_Feet> gagalicious: It depends if you are talking about a rsync client or a server, how you configured the server and issued the command to launch the client. In short: It will go where you specify it. See man rsync on --log-file.
[19:01] <memo____> hello
[19:02] <gagalicious> ok thanks
[19:02] <db`> k1l_ : the software is BGPanel (a game cp)
[19:02] <akik> db`: if you have a restrictive iptables setup and port 33022 was open by default, there's the first thing you need to look at
[19:02] <gagalicious> Stinky_Feet: if i didnt specify a log file? by default, does it have a log file?
[19:02] <db`> I haven't touched the IP table settings
[19:02] <Stinky_Feet> gagalicious: The client: No.
[19:03] <db`> akik: I haven't touched the ip tables. All I find is new port works for me on putty. So I assume its open to all
[19:03] <memo____> hi
[19:03] <memo____> first time here
[19:03] <NO_CARRIER> trying to figure out how to do something with dnsmasq, googling hasn't lead me to understand if this is even possible: I have an ubuntu server acting as a router to my network, getting a routable IP address directly from the cable modem. I have a fully qualified domain name (e.g. mydomain.com) that maps to my inernet-routable IP address that the ubuntu server has. I'm running dnsmasq. I want to set up dnsmasq
[19:03] <NO_CARRIER> such that internal hosts on my lan will resolve mydomain.com (and any other *.mydomain.com subdomains) to the internal ubuntu server instad of going out to external dns to get the routable IP address. Is this advisable or possible?
[19:03] <memo____> hei
[19:04] <tiblock> Hi. I had installed ubuntu 14.04 then my motherboard died, i bought new one, and mouse and keyboad was not working. I loaded from USB 14.04, 12.04, 15.04, debian 8.2, not working too. What i can do?
[19:04] <memo____> kkkk
[19:04] <memo____> k
[19:04] <k1l_> db`:  does that work with ssh connection?
[19:04] <db`> Yes, it uses a backend ssh protocol to connect to server
[19:04] <NO_CARRIER> reason for this is that I have say for example blog.mydomain.com route correctly from the outside to an internal host via forwarding, but I want my internal hosts in the LAN to resolve blog.mydomain.com to the appropriate internal private IP instead of the external addressable IP
[19:05] <db`> strangely, as I said, I got 5 IPs on my server. The port works from one IP & doesn't from another IP.
[19:05] <db`> for that s/w.
[19:05] <db`> for me - Its works from all ips.
[19:05] <db`> any clue whats wrong?
[19:05] <test123> hi
[19:05] <test123> first time here
[19:06] <k1l_> db`: i would ask that bgpanel guys if their software got issues with that and how to handle that
[19:06] <akik> db`: you can set sshd to listen on all addresses or select one of them
[19:06] <db`> akik: hows do I do that? I mean from my putty, I can connect to server new ssh port using all IPs.
[19:07] <db`> So I assume its enabled for all IPs.
[19:08] <akik> db` : ListenAddress 0.0.0.0 in sshd_config sets it to listen on all ipv4 addresses
[19:08] <test123_> hi
[19:09] <akik> db`: you said that you have some kind of iptables setup? probably there you have set up some restrictions
[19:09] <k1l_> test123_: yes we can read you. this channel is for ubuntu support only. for test please see ##test or ##chat for talking

[19:13] <reghina> Hi, I have no idea how to clean my pc, could someone give me a hand, please?
[19:14] <A124> Clean what.
[19:14] <akik> reghina: open the case and use a vacuum cleaner
[19:14] <reghina> A124 I do not know, I imagine I have to get rid of some staf
[19:14] <A124> So files?
[19:15] <reghina> akik , I know it sound stupid but l'm quite stupid on this
[19:15] <A124> Files, dust, or?
[19:15] <reghina> A124, i got rid of my files
[19:15] <A124> Ok another way.
[19:15] <reghina> Dust I cannot do it mysefl
[19:15] <akik> reghina: why do you say your pc is too slow?
[19:15] <A124> What means "clean" to you?
[19:15] <TheSkepticalBird> What is the command for a system upgrade? I'm the type of user who prefers to use the command line to do most tasks. But every time I try ... sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade <enter> I evidentally still need to do a system update.
[19:16] <A124> TheSkepticalBird distp-upgrade
[19:16] <reghina> A124, to gane memory space, I imagine
[19:16] <A124> *dist-upgrade
[19:16] <k1l_> reghina: you dont need to
[19:16] <TheSkepticalBird> kthx
[19:16] <A124> TheSkepticalBird upgrade is for packages, dist is for bumping distro version
[19:16] <k1l_> reghina: run a "sudo apt-get autoremove" that will packages that are marked as "not needed anymore". but you dont need to clean your system
[19:16] <reghina> akik, is very slow..for example with chrome on the net or when I work on fotos
[19:16] <TheSkepticalBird> Err... dist-upgrade: command not found
[19:17] <A124> TheSkepticalBird apt-get dist-upgrade
[19:17] <A124> My bad ;)
[19:17] <kinker31> Hey guys, i get an unkown error when I try to run WIndows 10 in the grub2 menu.
[19:17] <akik> reghina: has the computer ever worked faster? maybe you need a faster network connection?
[19:17] <reghina> k11 thank you
[19:17] <test123> hi
[19:18] <test123> hi
[19:18] <reghina> My connection is very fast akik, thank you anyway
[19:18] <TheSkepticalBird> Oh... got it. Thx :)
[19:18] <akik> reghina: just removing files is not going to make your computer faster
[19:18] <Bendr> Hello folks
[19:19] <Bendr> is there any way i can remove the driver of my ATI Radon 5450 on ubuntu?
[19:20] <k1l_> Bendr: "sudo apt-get purge fglrx" if it was installed from the repo
[19:22] <test123> Hi
[19:22] <Stinky_Feet> NO_CARRIER: Look at /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf. It needs a line like this to use local lookups before passing the DNS request on to the internet: prepend domain-name-servers 192.168.10.1;
[19:22] <Stinky_Feet> NO_CARRIER: That address being the static address of the server.
[19:23] <test123> i have a random problem every time i restart my All in One HP.  Just before the login screen, my displa turns white, then black.
[19:23] <test123> and i not able to ctr+alt+1.  I have force the shutdowm
[19:23] <test123> any help
[19:24] <test123> ?
[19:24] <Bendr> k1l_, i purged it, now can i check that there's no related driver is installed?
[19:25] <Bendr> k1l_, because i was using the default driver before installing this proprietary one
[19:25] <k1l_> Bendr: "dpkg -l | grep fglrx"
[19:26] <k1l_> Bendr: if you remove the fglrx it will fallback to the radeon. but it will blacklist the radeon if you install fglrx
[19:27] <Bendr> k1l_, fglrx-core                                    2:15.201-0ubuntu2~15.10.2                  amd64        Minimal video driver for the AMD graphics accelerators
[19:27] <Bendr> k1l_, i want both to be removed actually
[19:28] <k1l_> Bendr: uh, that doesnt work
[19:28] <db`> akik k1l_: guys, the sshd_config file has #0.0.0.0
[19:28] <Stinky_Feet> NO_CARRIER: You might have to add entries to /etc/hosts on the server for clients that does not behave. You can also use /etc/dnsmasq.d/filename.conf to specify rules based on MAC addresses: dhcp-host=D4:BE:D9:A3:BE:B8,192.168.10.6,infinite
[19:28] <db`> As in, its commented. But it has been working for my putty
[19:28] <db`> I mean all the 5IPs:port work from my putty
[19:29] <akik> db`: what does the listenaddress line say?
[19:29] <Bendr> k1l_, doesn't work?
[19:29] <db`> but that application doesn;t seem to work on a specific IP:port for more than 5 mins
[19:29] <k1l_> Bendr: what do you really want to do?
[19:29] <db`> #ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
[19:31] <akik> db`: can you please stop referring to your custom application and concentrate testing to ssh client
[19:31] <k1l_> db`: talk to bgpanel
[19:31] <db`> akik, I found something on iptables -L
[19:31] <db`> Chain fail2ban-default (2 references)
[19:32] <db`> This is the heading
[19:32] <akik> :P
[19:32] <k1l_> db`: ssh works with the new port. you already said that. so talk to them what is wrong their software
[19:32] <db`> and I find few Ips
[19:32] <akik> db`: fail2ban is what is causing your open/closed ports
[19:32] <db`> but thats got those IPs which aint able to connect to ssh from that applicatonbgpanel
[19:32] <akik> db`: maybe you should have told that you have fail2ban installed
[19:33] <Bendr> k1l_, Well, i have a problem i still don't understand it, my display crashes everytime, i have another 75'' screen with HDMI connector when i use it alongside with my default small screen they work just fine both with no crashes at all, i thought the problem could be with my GPU driver i uninstalled it on Windows and it worked just fine without crashes so i thought i could do the same with my Ubuntu
[19:33] <db`> idk what it is
[19:33] <ssfdre38_> how can i get make version 3.81 on ubuntu 15.10
[19:33] <db`> Let me check what it is on google
[19:33] <test123> hi
[19:33] <akik> Fail2ban scans log files (e.g. /var/log/apache/error_log) and bans IPs that show the malicious signs -- too many password failures, seeking for exploits, etc.
[19:33] <k1l_> db`: it bans ips when you try to login with the wrong password too often
[19:33] <db`> Aha!
[19:33] <db`> and I got the localhost IPs in its default lost
[19:33] <GrimTReaper> well nothing worked last night, although i am beginning to understand how ubuntu works, i can not get it to work lol, mean while i was thinking of updateing ubuntu, how does one do that?
[19:33] <db`> and I got the localhost IPs in its default list**
[19:34] <k1l_> Bendr: no, that is not how it works.
[19:34] <db`> May be that's the issue?
[19:34] <k1l_> Bendr: if you would remove the open source driver too you would not have a GUI at all.
[19:35] <k1l_> GrimTReaper: in terminal : "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" or use the update-manager in the desktop
[19:35] <akik> db`: fail2ban is not installed by default on ubuntu. are you sure you know what is running on your server?
[19:35] <db`> Yes, akik its installed on my server
[19:36] <zykotick9> k1l_: <sidenote> with apt, just "apt upgrade" will update everything on system (including new packages, like kernel version updates) it just won't remove anything...
[19:36] <akik> db`: ok so disable fail2ban until you know your game server is working fine
[19:36] <Bendr> k1l_, so, can you tell me what's going on exactly?
[19:37] <db`> akik, Is it possible to make fail2ban ignore my IPs?
[19:37] <akik> db`: then after re-enabling it, you know what is the thing to look at when connections are not open
[19:37] <akik> db`: sorry, i don't know. i don't use it
[19:37] <Bendr> k1l_, the display now is good until i turn off the other large screen which really doesn't make any sense :/
[19:37] <db`> akik I get your point. But those IPs which were not able to connect from bgpanel, are found in the list of fail2ban
[19:38] <GrimTReaper> i always seem to have broken packages
[19:38] <db`> and bgpanel is installed on those IP Address
[19:38] <GrimTReaper> it says ignored or replaced with older ones
[19:38] <GrimTReaper> lol
[19:40] <akik> db`: sorry, i don't know bgpanel either. an ip address is configured on an network interface on your server. then a process can use that ip address to make a socket like ip:port to start serving connections
[19:40] <wyrm_77> quit
[19:40] <test123> hi
[19:40] <wyrm_77> quit
[19:41] <zykotick9> wyrm_77: try "/quit"
[19:41] <wyrm_77> thanks
[19:42] <GrimTReaper> is there a place you can go to take classes on linux, Ubuntu, Etc.?
[19:42] <db`> ok
[19:42] <Bendr> k1l_, any idea?
[19:42] <NO_CARRIER> Stinky_Feet: will look at that, thanks
[19:43] <NO_CARRIER> Stinky_Feet: I was hoping to avoid needing to manually add entries for all of the subdomains that I handle and instead have the system be smart about mapping each forwarded subdomain internally
[19:45] <test123> hi
[19:46] <BVanheede> Hi
[19:47] <niklas_e> is it possible to install mesa 10.2.7 or later on LTS 14.04? How do you do that?
[19:49] <k1l_> Bendr: try some restarting from the xserver with logout and login again.
[19:50] <k1l_> Bendr: but could be an amd issue or prop. driver issue. i dont have that with my intel video card.
[19:52] <test123> hi, how i set my keyboard fucntion keys to control volumen
[19:52] <test123> thank you
[19:53] <Bendr> k1l_, how should the restarting help?
[19:53] <ioria> test123, SystemSettings -> Keyboard -> Shortcut -> Sound & Media
[19:53] <skyne-t2847> I keep seeing this blocked in FW  SRC=192.168.0.1 DST=224.0.0.1
[19:54] <db`> Got it fixed.
[19:54] <db`> It was the fail2ban which had banned its assigned IP addresses
[19:54] <Stinky_Feet> NO_CARRIER: Not entirely sure about what you mean by subdomain. You don't really need to add anything, unless you are a control freak like me and have a problem with devices that does not present themself with a hostname to the dhcp server. http://pastebin.com/anPWCADn
[19:54] <db`> Thanks for help k1l_ akik
[19:54] <nze> hi folks, can i co-install windows 10 with other stuff on my uefi system?
[19:54] <nze> i remember that some time ago windows was not playing too nicely with bios/mbr systems and it was a bit of a pain getting a boot loader to work...iirc windows just overwrote the mbr
[19:54] <nze> so will everything be broken if i just install win10 ?
[19:54] <test123> @ioria thank you
[19:57] <ioria> test123,  no problem
[19:58] <Newa> nze: you should be able to boot to linux still with say, super grub disk found on ultimatebootcd
[19:59] <Newa> just make sure you don't overwrite other operating system partitions
[20:01] <nze> Newa: well, as long as the window 10 implementation of uefi isn't as broken as their old mbr installers that should not be necessary
[20:02] <Newa> disclaimer: I have not installed Win10 anywhere yet
[20:05] <nze> looks like the internet says yes (should be fine)
[20:05] <akik> microsoft's old installers did their thing, just overwrite whatever was in the mbr :)
[20:05] <niklas_e> is there anyway to install mesa >= 10.2.7 in 14.04?
[20:05] <nze> they just did not give a fuck :>
[20:05] <Juggie> win10 uefi is fine
[20:05] <lindaoire> I damaged the sudoers file by deleting a has mark. Can anyone help me recover from this?
[20:07] <Stinky_Feet> lindaoire: You can no longer edit it because you can not sudo? Boot using a USB stick and fix it...
[20:08] <nze> ^ that
[20:08] <kinker31> Sorry if I happen to be repeating myself, but when I select Windows 10 in the grub menu, it gives me an unknown error message and boots me back to grub2. Is there any way to make grub2 not do that and boot Windows 10?
[20:09] <lindaoire> I'll try that and see. Thanks a lot!
[20:26] <Kalimer0> set up smb access and was working 3 hours ago but if i now search in network its not shown despite the service is running and the server up. can anyone help me to narrow the error?
[20:32] <Muimi> Is there an ubuntu release that has a kernel that works with i686?
[20:33] <bekks> Muimi: Sure. Every 32bit release does.
[20:33] <Kalimer0> set up smb access and was working 3 hours ago but if i now search in network its not shown despite the service is running and the server up. can anyone help me to narrow the error?
[20:33] <Muimi> Not the two I just tried. :'(
[20:33] <bekks> Muimi: Which two did you try then?
[20:33] <ioria> Kalimer0, did you enable ufw ?
[20:33] <Kalimer0> ioria: enable what?
[20:33] <sanjay> 'leave
[20:34] <Muimi> wily werewolf and trusty tahr 32-bit
[20:34] <ioria> Kalimer0,  Ubuntu FireWall
[20:34] <Kalimer0> no i dont think so
[20:34] <bekks> Muimi: Both work with 32bit hardware. What is/was the exact error you were experiencing?
[20:34] <nicomachus> Muimi: is this the powerbook?
[20:34] <Kalimer0> ioria: no i dont think so
[20:34] <k1l_> Muimi: what hardware do you got?
[20:34] <Muimi> nah, this is the abit-ic7
[20:35] <nicomachus> Muimi: is there an option in Bios to enable Intel VT-x?
[20:35] <ioria> Kalimer0,  how did you set the samba shares ?
[20:35] <nicomachus> that should allow you to boot x86
[20:35] <bekks> nicomachus: which is not true. vt-x is available on 64bit only.
[20:35] <krishill> Problem: Ubuntu 12.04 is stuck Plymouth splash screen. Switching to text-mode shows five lines: "fsck from util-linux 2.20.1 ... "
[20:35] <krishill> How can I safely get out of this mode?
[20:35] <nicomachus> bekks: going off this: https://hereirestinremorse.wordpress.com/virtualbox/this-kernel-requires-an-x86-64-cpu-but-only-detected-an-i686-cpu-unable-to-boot-please-use-a-kernel-appropriate-for-your-cpu/
[20:36] <Kalimer0> ioria: set the workgroup and added a folder where to acces at the end of /etc/samba/smb.conf
[20:36] <bekks> nicomachus: vt-x is available on 64bit only. Not being able to boot 32bit is totally unrelated to that post.
[20:36] <krishill> It says that both /dev/sda6 and /dev/sda7 are clean, but I don't know if it is checking something else right now (like my external HDD)
[20:36] <Muimi> there isn't that option, nicomachus
[20:36] <bekks> Muimi: Can you please answer my question?
[20:36] <k1l_> Muimi: are you sure its a i686 issue? or is this a PAE issue?
[20:37] <Muimi> it's an intel pentium 4 2.8gh
[20:37] <nicomachus> bekks: but Muimi isn't looking to boot 32 bit, just looking for an option that will boot. but since it's not in the BIOS anywhere, then forget it.
[20:37] <bekks> nicomachus: Lets stop guessing and wait for the actual error message, ok?
[20:37] <k1l_> Muimi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE
[20:37] <ryanvisual> The launcher on unity will not show back up.  https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/DXK8tE54SRSzhhJEXc9A
[20:37] <Muimi> I am getting the issue you described:
[20:37] <Muimi> This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU.  Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU.
[20:37] <Ally455678> Anyone had difficulties exporting mailboxes in mbox format from Mac OS x Mail to Evolution? We have the mbox files but can't seem to import them into Evolution.
[20:38] <ryanvisual> I restarted two times to no luck
[20:38] <k1l_> nicomachus: bekks it might be PAE issue with that old pentiums.
[20:38] <bekks> Muimi: So you are using a 64bit image, and you are trying to boot it on your 32bit CPU.
[20:38] <bekks> k1l_: Yeah.
[20:38] <Muimi>  i'm tellin ya i know fershur it's 32-bit.
[20:38] <bekks> Muimi: I strongly believe in the error message instead.
[20:38] <ioria> Kalimer0,  try with nautilus -> Connect to server -> smb://ip/share/
[20:38] <Muimi> i'll rebern it, though.
[20:39] <ryanvisual> Help!!!!!!!.
[20:39] <cluelessperson> Question, what's the difference betwen Ubuntu desktop and Ubuntu Desktop USB?
[20:39] <k1l_> Muimi: can you show the md5sum of that iso?
[20:39] <bekks> Muimi: Did you read the link given by k1l_ yet?
[20:40] <k1l_> ryanvisual: look slike no 3d video driver. please log into the guest account (or another account) to verify
[20:40] <Kalimer0> ioria: its a windows pc i want to access with. tried that but windows told me i need a seperate tool to access smb XD. before the pc was just listed under network and i could access
[20:41] <ryanvisual> k1l_: It had no issues!!!!!
[20:41] <k1l_> ryanvisual: what?
[20:42] <Muimi> Hold on. *giddy* gonna try 32-bit tahr.
[20:42] <ioria> Kalimer0,  windows 7 ?
[20:42] <bekks> Muimi: Start answering questions.
[20:42] <Kalimer0> ioria: 10
[20:42] <Muimi> I only got 2 hands
[20:42] <ryanvisual> Unity disappeared because of an error and after restarting 2 times.  Nothing Worked!
[20:42] <bekks> Muimi: Use them for answering questions instead of randomly trying things.
[20:43] <Muimi> well, i already formatted the USB, so I can't show that.
[20:43] <k1l_> ryanvisual: again: does log into the guest account (or another account) work like intended?
[20:43] <ioria> Kalimer0,  sorry , i got 7 ... but usually is the contrary; windows cannot access ubuntu
[20:44] <bekks> Muimi: Good luck then, whatever you are doing there.
[20:44] <ryanvisual> It's stuck in my auto login account,  and I am trying to log out.
[20:44] <ryanvisual> There is no top bar or launcher
[20:44] <k1l_> ryanvisual: ok. ctrl+alt+t for a terminal. then do a "sudo lightdm restart"
[20:45] <ryanvisual> Nothing.
[20:45] <k1l_> ryanvisual: what nothing?
[20:45] <ioria> Kalimer0,  have you seen this  ? https://www.schkerke.com/wps/2015/06/windows-10-unable-to-connect-to-samba-shares/
[20:46] <Kalimer0> ioria: but it worked before about 4 to 5 hours ago and now not anymore. out of ideas. the other services like upnp are shown just normal but not the server as a computer itself
[20:46] <k1l_> ryanvisual: i cant see what you are doing. so as more info you give me the better i can help you. if i need to ask you everything 10 times i will lose motivation.
[20:46] <Muimi> is a tahr mini cd supposed to boot to a grub bootloader?
[20:46] <bekks> Muimi: No.
[20:46] <ryanvisual> https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/DkGnpKMYQzCSezBfEe0j
[20:47] <cluelessperson> SO, is it described anywhere how to install ubuntu WITHOUT bloat?
[20:47] <ioria> Kalimer0,   password protected or shared ?
[20:47] <bekks> cluelessperson: Install using the netinstall image.
[20:47] <k1l_> ryanvisual: wait, why are you root?
[20:47] <Muimi> oh, then it's not booting to the usb.  well, shoot.
[20:47] <Kalimer0> ioria: nah my smb folder is password protected so i think this workaround is only for non-protected access
[20:47] <bekks> Muimi: Then you are creating the USB the wrong way.
[20:47] <ryanvisual> It now goes to it if I run sudo
[20:47] <ioria> Kalimer0,   ok... can you paste /etc/samba/smb.conf ?
[20:47] <k1l_> ryanvisual: what ubuntu is that exactly?
[20:48] <cluelessperson> bekks, I'm using the minimal CD, which IS a netinstall, and it doesn't describe what the packages are or how to manage which are installed.
[20:48] <ryanvisual> 15.10
[20:48] <bekks> cluelessperson: And whats the issue at that point, now?
[20:48] <bekks> cluelessperson: Install a minimal Ubuntu, install all packages you want afterwards. Done.
[20:48] <cluelessperson> bekks, I don't want bloat?
[20:48] <bekks> cluelessperson: There is no bloat.
[20:48] <Bashing-om> cluelessperson: How about : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall ; https://xpressubuntu.wordpress.com/2014/02/22/how-to-install-a-minimal-ubuntu-desktop/ ??
[20:48] <cluelessperson> bekks, I'm trying to install a desktop environment, and I need to know the packages.
[20:49] <bekks> cluelessperson: Then look at the output of apt-get install ubuntu-desktop (e.g.) and read the package list shown.
[20:50] <k1l_> ryanvisual: sudo systemctl restart lightdm
[20:50] <k1l_> ryanvisual: and its not true that it will change to a root terminal. so there is alot worng on your system or its not ubuntu
[20:50] <cluelessperson> "Ubuntu Desktop" "Ubuntu Desktop USB"  "kubuntu" "Lubuntu"  doesn't tell me what packages they contain
[20:51] <bekks> cluelessperson: I told you how to find out.
[20:51] <Stinky_Feet> cluelessperson: It is not Windows. You can purge things you do not want when the installation is complete.
[20:52] <ioria> Kalimer0,   anyway this is mine , change the share and the group   http://paste.ubuntu.com/14559207/
[20:52] <AceOfSpades> hi yall
[20:52] <k1l_> cluelessperson: if you talk about "bloat" you want to inspect every package and every depency yourself. because no on here or the maintainers know what you think is bloat.
[20:53] <Kalimer0> ioria: http://pastebin.com/aSPJLgmT
[20:53] <cluelessperson> k1l_, I'm fine with installing Ubuntu Desktop with --no-suggests -no-recomments
[20:53] <cluelessperson> recommends
[20:53] <Muimi> let's see what i got here.  Can I just look at the files and see whether or not the cd is 32-bit?
[20:53] <bekks> Muimi: Tell us the filename you downloaded.
[20:53] <k1l_> Muimi: do the md5sum
[20:54] <k1l_> cluelessperson: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/ubuntu-desktop
[20:54] <Muimi> Because I think this one is 64-bit (the dvd that's giving me the issue).
[20:54] <Muimi> and the 32-bit disk is just loading a blank black screen
[20:54] <ryanvisual> It didn't work...
[20:54] <bekks> Muimi: Then use the nomodeset kernel option for booting.
[20:54] <bekks> !nomodeset > Muimi
[20:55] <k1l_> ryanvisual: what didnt work?
[20:55] <bekks> Muimi: And finally start answering questions.
[20:55] <Muimi> the dvd has a file called md5sum that says: cde56251d6cae5214227d887dee3bab7  ./pics/red-upperleft.png
[20:55] <Muimi> 0730e775a72519aaa450a3774fca5f55  ./pics/red-lowerleft.png

[20:55] <ioria> Kalimer0,   backup yours, try with mine ,make your changes ,  restart the smbd and nmbd services
[20:56] <ryanvisual> The command that you gave me
[20:56] <Muimi> sorry
[20:56] <k1l_> Muimi: md5sum the whole disk. so we can look up what iso was used.
[20:56] <bekks> !md5sum | Muimi
[20:56] <ioria> Kalimer0,  i have issues too. Sometimes i have to wait several minutes before the shares show up ...
[20:57] <Muimi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14559297/
[20:57] <bekks> Muimi: Wrong approach. Do you read what we are telling you?
[20:57] <k1l_> ryanvisual: "my car is broken" "what is broken exactly?" "my car is broken" its really hard to help you
[20:58] <Muimi> yeah i read what you told me after i pasted that, dude.
[20:58] <Muimi> i'm doing it now.
[20:58] <bekks> Muimi: Answer my question before.
[20:59] <ryanvisual> Dude,  the command that you gave didn't work,  restarting lighten did not fix my lanucher
[20:59] <k1l_> ryanvisual: i never said it will fix your issue. i am still in getting to know what mess on your system causes that issue
[20:59] <Muimi> so md5sum -c *.*?
[21:00] <bekks> Muimi: No. Answer my question please.
[21:00] <k1l_> ryanvisual: <k1l_> ryanvisual: again: does log into the guest account (or another account) work like intended?
[21:00] <ryanvisual> It started when the unity crashrd
[21:00] <Muimi> Do I read what you're telling me... before you type it?  NO, I'm not at your house, that's impossible.
[21:00] <k1l_> ryanvisual: 3rd. time now. i will not ask a 4th time.
[21:01] <bekks> Muimi: 0117 215354 < bekks> Muimi: Tell us the filename you downloaded.
[21:01] <Muimi> What I have is: (1) I pasted a pastebin uri.  (2) You gave me a website to read.  (3) I read the website and executed the command.
[21:01] <ryanvisual> I can't,  its stuck on the main account!!
[21:01] <Muimi> The filename is mini.iso
[21:01] <bekks> Muimi: Answer that question.
[21:01] <bekks> Was it that hard?
[21:01] <bekks> Muimi: Which exact link did you download it from?
[21:02] <ryanvisual> https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/qlwBIaxtS96ns0yU5ysS Look at the picture!!!
[21:02] <k1l_> ryanvisual: try in terminal: gnome-session-quit --no-prompt
[21:03] <k1l_> ryanvisual: that picture can have multiple causes. so i still try to figure out which solution we will need. but it is like pulling teeth to get to know what is going wrong on your system
[21:04] <teward|web> is there any way to create an ubuntu live usb from inside of Kali?  I have the ISO but I can't get it installed to the USB stick and have no other system that I can use to write it
[21:04] <teward|web> (no Windows system with admin privs, so that's not an option either)
[21:04] <k1l_> ryanvisual: so since i lost motivation now since you still try to argue instead of helping me helping you: see if the video driver works properly or if its a broken config in your users home.
[21:05] <k1l_> teward|web: dd onto the usb
[21:05] <ryanvisual> Okay I am on the guest account.  https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/bXWfqU1aQs2nCsXTda5N
[21:05] <OerHeks> a Kali prepared Ubuntu iso ?
[21:05] <teward|web> k1l_: dd to where? the root of the device (/dev/sdX)?
[21:05] <artois> teward|web: the device, yes, don't get the wrong one
[21:05] <teward|web> OerHeks: no, i have the ISO from the cd images server.  i have a Kali Live USB I can boot to, but that's it
[21:05] <k1l_> teward|web: yes, /dev/sdx where sdx is the usb pendrive
[21:06] <teward|web> k1l_: does that make it EFI only or hybrid?
[21:06] <teward|web> 'cause the system it's going to be run on is MBR...
[21:06] <k1l_> hybrid
[21:06] <teward|web> ok
[21:06] <teward|web> lets hope this works\
[21:06] <ioria> teward|web, sudo dd if=file.iso  of=/dev/sdx
[21:06] <ryanvisual> k1l_!
[21:06] <nicomachus> ryanvisual: relax. be patient.
[21:06] <artois> heh
[21:07] <bekks> teward|web: add bs=128M to that command.
[21:08] <WeiJunLi> I'm trying to run a program but throws an error related to LIBAFF support
[21:08] <WeiJunLi> how can I install that?
[21:08] <nicomachus> WeiJunLi: what's the exact error?
[21:08] <teward|web> running now, lets hope this works
[21:09] <Muimi> Okay, hold on. I was at the wrong PC.  The PC I downloaded the DVD from was that PC (just plugged it in).  It's from the 15.10 i386 URL, here: http://mirrors.rit.edu/ubuntu-releases/15.10/ubuntu-15.10-desktop-i386.iso
[21:09] <ryanvisual> I did what you wanted me to do!  Now what?
[21:09] <Muimi> it's also the only iso file for ubuntu on that pc.
[21:09] <k1l_> !pae | Muimi
[21:10] <k1l_> Muimi: see if your old pentium needs that handling
[21:10] <teward|web> bekks: k1l_: after the dd, just reboot?
[21:10] <k1l_> teward|web: do a "sync" before unpluggin
[21:10] <bekks> teward|web: issue "sync" too
[21:10] <ryanvisual> k1l_: Help me with this
[21:10] <Muimi> k11: I'm sorry to ask, but would it need to be lubuntu because the only dvd i have is the 15.10
[21:11] <WeiJunLi> nicomachus: [ERROR] Compiled without LIBAFP support, module not available!
[21:11] <bekks> WeiJunLi: when doing what?
[21:11] <teward|web> k1l_: bekks: and after the sync, unplug, boot to USB?
[21:11] <bekks> teward|web: Yeah
[21:11] <teward|web> cool
[21:11] <k1l_> teward|web: boot that usb
[21:11] <teward|web> lets hope this works
[21:11] <WeiJunLi> bekks: trying to run hydra
[21:12] <ioria> !info libafflib-dev
[21:12] <teward|web> k1l_: bekks: you two are extremely helpful!  thank you, now I can repair my Ubuntu GRUB
[21:13] <ryanvisual> Can anyone else help me with my launcher crashing and not starting up on my main account but it runs fine on the guest account.
[21:14] <technoweenie> looking to leave windows i have an emerson hdmi tv monitor for my display with build in speakers, will the OS support the use of my emerson for my display and speakers?
[21:14] <nicomachus> technoweenie: yes.
[21:15] <technoweenie> thank you!
[21:15] <ryanvisual> Help!
[21:15] <Muimi> k11: Similar to the 14.04 CD, the 15.10 DVD goes to a black screen (appears the monitor turns off) when I press the tab key.
[21:17] <nicomachus> did you use the nomodeset parameter as advised?
[21:17] <k1l_> Muimi: what is the last you see?
[21:17] <Muimi> the keyboard and the little man
[21:17] <k1l_> then press a key
[21:18] <Muimi> after pressing the a key, still blind.
[21:19] <Muimi> I'm thinking there's some video problem.  I don't have on-board video on this mobo, and every hdd I try to boot to gives me a flashiing screen (except the one that boots to grub)
[21:19] <bekks> Muimi: Did you set the nomodeset parameter as advised?
[21:20] <teward|web> bekks: k1l_: is this process usable for all other
[21:20] <teward|web> Ubuntu ISOs as well?
[21:20] <k1l_> teward|web: it works for all ubuntu isos.
[21:20] <teward|web> blah, stupid computer is stupid
[21:20] <bekks> teward|web: At least for all recent ubuntu isos, yes.
[21:20] <teward|web> cool, thanks
[21:20] <teward|web> bekks: 14.04 and up i assume would be recent?
[21:20] <bekks> teward|web: Yes.
[21:23] <Muimi> !nomodset > Muimi
[21:23] <Muimi> !nomodeset > Muimi
[21:25] <inferno> Hey guys, got a problem, when I try to get a key it gives me a "gpg: no valid GPG data found"
[21:25] <inferno> sorry its OpenPGP
[21:25] <Addic7ed> Guys, i have a problem on my laptop running Elementary OS. Date and Time is okay, but i somehow managed to choose i guess Switzerland or smth, and it shows in their langauage - "zo 17 jan" instead of my language
[21:26] <k1l_> !elementary | Addic7ed
[21:27] <Addic7ed> Thanks!
[21:28] <Muimi> so, 'press any key at that moment to access a menu' does not work, so then i'm trying f6, and the same thing happens.  Basically, I see the man and the keyboard, then i see a blinking cursor on a black screen (top left), then it looks like the monitor turns off.
[21:28] <bekks> Muimi: Did you add the nomodeset parameter as advised?
[21:29] <nimbiotics> Is there a way to fix my system? Last night I messed up with ownership of all of /var I immediatelly started having problems with mysql so I tried reboortind and of course, that didn't nothing for me as I couldn't even login. I got in as root and fixed ownership of /var by looking at another installation, but I still can't logi, except for root@cli...
[21:29] <bekks> nimbiotics: Restore your backup. Otherwise it will take ages to manually restore permissions.
[21:29] <bob2017> oh cool i havent’ seen a net split since the 90s
[21:30] <bekks> bob2017: you havent been here since the 90s then :P
[21:30] <Bashing-om> Muimi: An EFI system ? Then it is the escape key that the system looks for as the interrupt key .
[21:32] <nimbiotics> bekks: I only messed up with /var and that (as far as I can see) has been fixed ... please tell me there are other options ....
[21:32] <bekks> nimbiotics: There arent other options.
[21:32] <bekks> nimbiotics: I strongly doubt you fixed the permissions of tenthousands of files under /var that fast.
[21:33] <bob2017> bekks:  true.  will you look at my logs and tell me why nothing shows up on my monitors?
[21:33] <nimbiotics> ls
[21:33] <nimbiotics> soops
[21:34] <nimbiotics> bekks: Ok, Thanks!
[21:34] <serhat> slm
[21:35] <catalase> hello, i am trying to mkfs.ext4 a 5TB ext-hdd, however, i get "alignment is offset by 3072 bytes" and the drive size goes to 120 MB
[21:36] <bob2017> instead of detecting three monitors, the log seems to show the second monitor being detected twice
[21:37] <inferno> This is for Ubuntu Server 14.4.3 LTS, everyone on #ubuntu-server is dead, When I try get a key I keep getting the "gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found" anyone got a solution?
[21:37] <alkisg> catalase: are you using a GPT for this, or are you trying to format the whole disk?
[21:41] <bob2017> inferno: try updog
[21:42] <inferno> Im sort of new to Linux overall and Ubuntu server in all, just trying to get webmin onto the server
[21:42] <catalase> alkisg, no idea what a GPT is. it's a brand new disk. trying to get it to a partititon of the appropriate size on it (whole disk)
[21:42] <inferno> so I dont even know what updog is
[21:42] <alkisg> GPT is the new "MBR" for larger disks
[21:42] <alkisg> Try to do it with gparted, create partition table, style GPT, then format the first partition
[21:43] <catalase> alkisg, using ubuntu server 14.04 lts so only have cli
[21:43] <catalase> only have parted
[21:43] <Muimi> the escape key doesn't work either, so i'm going to see if i can find an old pci card at the junk store
[21:43] <alkisg> Do it with parted then
[21:43] <k1l_> !webmin | inferno
[21:44] <inferno> k1l_, fuck, thank you
[21:44] <inferno> any other good alternatives?
[21:45] <k1l_> not for a panel. no.
[21:46] <inferno> So how the hell am I suppose to transfer files n add permissions n stuff to my webserver?
[21:47] <nicomachus> !language | inferno
[21:47] <bob2017> inferno, i’m telling ya, try updog
[21:47] <bob2017> k1l_: will you help me with my monitors?
[21:47] <k1l_> inferno: either you use ssh and cli commands. or you use sftp or sshfs.
[21:49] <k1l_> bob2017: have no clue about 3monitors setups
[21:49] <OerHeks> bob2017, again fooling around? stop that updog nonsense
[21:49] <OerHeks> please troll elsewhere
[21:50] <inferno> All I really want in the end is a way to make a webserver where I can just transfer files in and out using lets say Filezilla, can I do that with those systems? again, im sort of new to this stuff so I am not sure what you just named there
[21:50] <catalase> alkisg i get 2      0.00TB  0.00TB  0.00TB               primary
[21:50] <alkisg> catalase: that's what parted tells you about the disk?
[21:50] <k1l_> inferno: yes
[21:51] <catalase> yes
[21:51] <catalase> http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/fdisk-unable-to-create-partition-greater-2tb.html
[21:51] <catalase> trying to follow that
[21:51] <alkisg> catalase: fdisk doesn't support gpt
[21:51] <alkisg> Use parted
[21:51] <k1l_> inferno: ssh already ships a secure ftp server.
[21:51] <catalase> i am using parted
[21:51] <alkisg> Ah ok it says about parted, I only looked at the title/url
[21:51] <catalase> it shows 2 partitions both 0.00 TB
[21:51] <catalase> i need to remove those partitions
[21:51] <catalase> i only want 1
[21:52] <alkisg> If you create a partition table, all existing partitions are deleted
[21:52] <alkisg> mklabel gpt
[21:53] <catalase> i do mklabel gpt and it returns some error: Partition(s) 1-64 unable to inform the kernel of the change, probably because it/they are in use.As a result, the old partition(s) will remain in use.  You should reboot now before making further changes.
[21:53] <catalase> then it says ignore/cancel? and i dont know what input it requires
[21:55] <wowa_s> test
[21:55] <inferno> k1l_: Wait, is there a way that I can get a ubuntu server that is compatible with webmin?
[21:55] <k1l_> inferno: we strongly suggest not to use webmin.
[21:55] <inferno> k1l_:  why not?
[21:56] <shadaloo> hi
[21:56] <k1l_> inferno: it was included as a ubuntu package. but it messes with config files and causes a lot if issues.
[21:56] <k1l_> so it got removed.
[21:56] <shadaloo> trying to get meterbridge to work in ubuntu
[21:56] <inferno> k1l_: Even when used with older versions?
[21:56] <alkisg> catalase: if you can reboot, it's easier, it sounds that your partitions are in use, you need to unmount them etc before using gparted
[21:57] <inferno> Older versions of ubuntu I mean
[21:57] <shadaloo> can someone help me feed alsa audio into meterbridge? http://plugin.org.uk/meterbridge/
[21:57] <k1l_> but inferno: you want to manage a server in the internet. you really should get a clue what you do and not click on colored buttons. or your server will end up as  just another spam box
[21:57] <k1l_> inferno: yes. webmin was an issue all the time. no matter what version
[21:58] <inferno> k1l_: Well alright but I have no clue how to set up "ssh and cli commands. or you use sftp or sshfs"
[21:59] <freeblah> When I try to install ubuntu-sdk, I get an error that the package "indicator-bluetooth" has an unmet dependency, how do I troubleshoot that?
[22:00] <k1l_> inferno: ssh is setup already. thats the way you connect to the server.  then you can mount the sftp or sshfs (easy one on ubuntu desktop with nautilus) and use that to upload files. and use chmod/chown in that terminal to sort owner and file permissions if needed.
[22:01] <k1l_> inferno: if you just want webspace and not worry, then book a webspace and not a server :/
[22:01] <shadaloo> when i run meterbridge -t vu alsa_pcm:capture_1 alsa_pcm:capture_2 I get Can't find port 'alsa_pcm:capture_1'
[22:01] <shadaloo> can anyone help me locate my active audio ports
[22:02] <mrkie_> hey i have a 1gb drive and i made 1 partition on it that is ntfs and there is 20% of it left that has not assigned to a partition, i want that 20% part to be used for ubuntu but when i install ubuntu from usb it only can see my full 1gb hd and it will not show partitions or space left that can be used for a new ubuntu partition, what is wrong here?
[22:03] <mrkie_> new asus laptop
[22:03] <mrkie_> just bought it
[22:03] <mrkie_> 80% used for 1 partition
[22:03] <inferno> k1l_: Ok I guess I should mention that this is a server im just trying to set up as a "passion project". its my first time making this stuff so its not even going to be on the open web just my network, I want to upload some html's and have a functioning site, and maybe even turn it into something usefull, maybe later on try make a home lan storage server, just messing around with a bunch of ideas, testing stuff out
[22:04] <compdoc> might boot gparted. you could create an ext4 part on whats left. how much is 20%, exactly?
[22:04] <k1l_> inferno: that is all ok. but use this to learn something. and not just want a dirty&collored buttons solution
[22:04] <shadaloo> mrkie_: i think you mean you have a 1tb harddrive?
[22:04] <mrkie_> compdoc: that's the point, i only see the full drive size, not anyhting that is left
[22:05] <shadaloo> mrkie_: you're not going to be able to install ubuntu on 20% of 1gb
[22:05] <compdoc> youre booting from usb?
[22:05] <mrkie_> shadaloo: yes i do, but with already 1 partition
[22:05] <mrkie_> yes
[22:05] <compdoc> the installer?
[22:05] <mrkie_> yes
[22:05] <compdoc> how did you create it?
[22:05] <shadaloo> mrkie_:
[22:05] <shadaloo> have you read this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[22:05] <mrkie_> compdoc: with the instruction of the ubuntu website, just legal
[22:06] <compdoc> its legal, but did you use dd, or some program to write?
[22:06] <inferno> k1l_: so youre suggesting I try mount an sftp or sshfs? btw you said it would be easy to do with the desktop ubuntu verson, but im just trying to stick to the simple server side, dont need a gui
[22:06] <mrkie_> shadaloo: yes i did before
[22:06] <mrkie_> i installed it that way before on my pc, this is laptop
[22:07] <shadaloo> mrkie_: what is your question then
[22:07] <shadaloo> mrkie_: doesn't make a difference pc or laptop
[22:07] <mrkie_> why i don't see any partition or space left that can be used for a new partition
[22:07] <compdoc> thats not really an answer
[22:07] <shadaloo> mrkie_: what did you partion with
[22:07] <k1l_> inferno: i mean: its easy running with ubuntu as your desktop os. you seem to run windows when talking about filezilla
[22:07] <shadaloo> originally
[22:07] <mrkie_> with the windows 10 installed from usb
[22:08] <inferno> k1l_: I have the server on another crappy laptop right now, accessing it remotely with putty
[22:08] <shadaloo> mrkie_: then you didn't follow the directions
[22:08] <shadaloo> use ubuntu to partion
[22:08] <k1l_> inferno: yes. i am talking about your pc/laptop. not the server
[22:09] <shadaloo> when i run 'meterbridge -t vu alsa_pcm:capture_1 '        I get Can't find port 'alsa_pcm:capture_1'
[22:09] <mrkie_> shadaloo: don't see the steps that are shown after Manual partitioning
[22:09] <shadaloo> how can I found my active audio ports?
[22:09] <shadaloo> find*
[22:09] <inferno> k1l_: Yes I run win10 on my main PC, I can set up Ubuntu VM's tho if its really that nessesary
[22:09] <k1l_> inferno: the ubuntu file manager can easily mount the server and make it easy as coping files on your own pc from one directory to another. i am not sure if its that easy on windows.
[22:10] <shadaloo> ewwww virtualizing linux in windows
[22:10] <shadaloo> seems so dirty
[22:10] <bekks> Clean the screen then.
[22:10] <k1l_> inferno: so i cant tell you what best to use on windows. but there should be programs too. on ubuntu desktop, its very easy.
[22:11] <inferno> k1l_:  So would a Ubuntu VM work?
[22:11] <k1l_> inferno: so your task of "moving files there" should not be the reason to mess with the server and install webmin. just because it got buttons to click
[22:11]  * Stinky_Feet cleans screen
[22:12] <shadaloo> when i run 'meterbridge -t vu alsa_pcm:capture_1 '        I get Can't find port 'alsa_pcm:capture_1' how do I find active audio ports?
[22:12] <k1l_> inferno: yes, but you could try or look up if there are some windows programs who can do this. i cant tell you that.
[22:12] <shadaloo> or even list all audio ports
[22:12] <nicomachus> shadaloo: aplay -l should list all audio devices
[22:13] <nicomachus> hardware devices, that is
[22:13] <shadaloo> nicomachus: I need software ports
[22:13] <shadaloo> I'm trying to run meterbridge on my audio, it recommend using alsa_pcm
[22:13] <mrkie_> shadaloo/others: i have the exact problem as listed here: http://superuser.com/questions/744916/ubuntu-14-04-installer-doesnt-show-existing-partitions
[22:13] <shadaloo> but that comes up blank
[22:13] <shadaloo> mrkie_: it's a very easy solution
[22:14] <shadaloo> mrkie_: reinstall windows 10
[22:14] <shadaloo> use the entire drive
[22:14] <shadaloo> then partition when installing ubuntu
[22:14] <shadaloo> if it's not detecting the way windows partitions, let the ubuntu partition manager do it
[22:15] <k1l_> mrkie_: boot the ubuntu live desktop. use gparted to sort that partitions. then you can tell the installer to use that partitions on manual install
[22:15] <inferno> k1l_: Im not 100% sure what is the program suppose to do..? Manage files on the ubuntu server?
[22:15] <shadaloo> ^ that's also smart
[22:15] <shadaloo> k1l's way is more time efficient
[22:15] <k1l_> inferno: what do you want to do with the server?
[22:16] <k1l_> inferno: you said you need something to load files to the server. ssh already brings you sshfs or sftp. so get a program on windows that can make use of that and then you can put your files there
[22:16] <mrkie_> k1l_: how do you do that exactly?
[22:17] <shadaloo> mrkie_:
[22:17] <shadaloo> how are you install ubuntu
[22:17] <shadaloo> installing*
[22:17] <shadaloo> an .iso?
[22:17] <mrkie_> from a usb stick bootable, yes
[22:17] <shadaloo> do you have a LiveCD/LiveUSB?
[22:17] <k1l_> mrkie_: what exactly?
[22:17] <mrkie_> i can run ubuntu to preview it from the usb stick also
[22:17] <Bur> boot give "low graphics mode" nvidia card ubuntu 12.04?
[22:17] <shadaloo> mrkie_: right
[22:17] <shadaloo> mkander_: use the 'try ubuntu' option
[22:18] <shadaloo> it comes with the program Gparted
[22:18] <shadaloo> use that to fix the partition the way you want
[22:18] <shadaloo> then when you go to install ubuntu you should have them detected
[22:18] <k1l_> mrkie_: but before you do anything. make sure the backup is fine
[22:19] <Stinky_Feet> mrkie_: "use that to fix the partition the way you want" BE CAREFUL
[22:19] <inferno> k1l_:Something like this? https://code.google.com/p/win-sshfs/
[22:19] <shadaloo> Stinky_Feet: he just installed windows
[22:19] <Stinky_Feet> oh well
[22:19] <mrkie_> will try gparted now
[22:19] <shadaloo> mrkie_: good luck godspeed
[22:19] <mrkie_> be back soon, if not, i will install ubuntu :)
[22:19] <austrinus> Hey everyone. I just installed ubuntu onto my dell inspiron 13 7000 that already had windows 10 on it. it seemed to initially boot, however, now it fails to boot
[22:20] <austrinus> i'm not sure why the boot is failing
[22:20] <bekks> austrinus: fails with which error message?
[22:20] <austrinus> it doesn't give an error message
[22:20] <austrinus> it seems to switch to booting windows
[22:20] <austrinus> i opened up the boot sequence select and choose ubuntu
[22:21] <austrinus> nothing seemed to happen, but then it booted into windows
[22:21] <k1l_> inferno: i dont know if filezilla or that ftp clients or even the windows filebrowser can use that
[22:23] <inferno> k1l_: Alright screw the windows programs then ill do it through an Ubuntu VM
[22:23] <hal14450> austrinus, boot sequence as in the bios or boot sequence as in grub?
[22:23] <austrinus> boot sequence in the bios
[22:23] <austrinus> grub does not load
[22:23] <shadaloo> austrinus: hold shift to get boot options
[22:23] <shadaloo> when your computer starts
[22:24] <hal14450> sounds like the partition grub is installed on isn't flagged as bootable and the windows partition is
[22:24] <k1l_> inferno: i cant tell you what windows programs can do this. a 5min search or asking windows guys should give you the answer. i am not using it.
[22:24] <shadaloo> 'windows guys' xD
[22:24] <rww> (there are some in ##windows ;)
[22:24] <austrinus> hal14450: do you have to flag the partition as bootable after you go through the ubuntu installer process?
[22:25] <shadaloo> austrinus: it should automatically 'update-grub'
[22:25] <shadaloo> maybe something errored
[22:25] <hal14450> the partition grub is installed on should be flagged as bootable and it should handle the duties after that
[22:25] <inferno> I mean why not.
[22:25] <austrinus> is there a way to flag it as bootable after the fact?
[22:26] <hal14450> austrinus, yes but doing that can be dangerous
[22:26] <austrinus> why's that?
[22:26] <austrinus> the install is brand new. I was just going to wipe it and reinstall but I wanted to know if there was a better way
[22:27] <hal14450> austrinus, because you'd be using tools that can screw up the boot process
[22:27] <austrinus> ah
[22:28] <mrkie_> i will give  AOMEI Partition Assistant a try
[22:28] <hal14450> austrinus, provided that you have a bootable usb drive or another computer to fix any mistakes you should be okay but just be aware that messing with boot records can be dangerous
[22:28] <mrkie_> ubutnu was not able to read or mount anything
[22:28] <shadaloo> mrkie_:
[22:29] <austrinus> hal14450: I do have those
[22:29] <shadaloo> easiest way to get a fucntional dualboot is to just follow the directions
[22:29] <austrinus> hal14450: is it possible that there might be an issue with EFI vs legacy?
[22:29] <k1l_> mrkie_: did you use some special partition/disk setup on windows install?
[22:29] <bekks> austrinus: Sure.
[22:29] <austrinus> I don't know much about efi, but the interwebz mentioned it could be a problem
[22:29] <k1l_> mrkie_: can you boot the ubuntu live desktop and show a "sudo parted -l" in a pastebin?
[22:30] <shadaloo> austrinus: the modern ubuntu installer knows how to properly accomodate UEFI
[22:30] <mrkie_> k1l_: i just removed all partition and i made 1 new partition ntfs
[22:30] <shadaloo> austrinus: I know because i'm running it right now
[22:30] <austrinus> shadaloo: that's what I thought, so I figured efi wasn't the problem
[22:30] <shadaloo> austrinus: you might want to try messing with UEFI options in your BIOS
[22:31] <mrkie_> k1l_: hmm i could do that
[22:31] <hal14450> austrinus, i don't own any machines that have windows installed other than on a VM so i can't really provide a solution from personal experience. it may be related to EFI restrictions but without knowing more about the hardware i don't know if you'll get an answer to your problem.
[22:31] <austrinus> shadaloo: as in try to switch from EFI to legacy?
[22:31] <shadaloo> austrinus: right
[22:31] <austrinus> hal14450: no worries. thanks for your help
[22:31] <mrkie_> k1l_: but i will try to convert from mbr to gpt (if it is mbr)
[22:31] <austrinus> shadaloo: alright, I'll try that
[22:31] <shadaloo> austrinus: its not going to break naything worse and you can always switch your BIOS back to default
[22:32] <hal14450> austrinus, yvw and good luck with getting that sorted
[22:32] <shadaloo> austrinus: also, dont forget to hold shift to make sure grub is selecting the linux kernel
[22:32] <austrinus> shadaloo: will do
[22:33]  * hal14450 is not a big fan of dual booting
[22:33] <shadaloo> agreed
[22:33] <shadaloo> better to have ubuntu on a USB stick
[22:33] <shadaloo> or another drive
[22:33] <hal14450> right
[22:34] <mrkie_> k1l_: i made a ext3 partition in linux now, i'm not sure if it will show up in ubuntu
[22:34] <shadaloo> ok so who's going to help me find my audio port
[22:34] <k1l_> mrkie_: use ext4
[22:34] <k1l_> mrkie_: and what linux are we talking about?
[22:34] <mrkie_> k1l_: ubuntu
[22:35] <k1l_> mrkie_: standard for ubuntu is ext4
[22:35] <mrkie_> maybe i can reformat it during the install
[22:35] <k1l_> yes
[22:35] <mrkie_> will try now
[22:35] <shadaloo> when i run 'meterbridge -t vu alsa_pcm:capture_1 '        I get Can't find port 'alsa_pcm:capture_1' how do I find active audio ports?
[22:35] <shadaloo> anyone?
[22:36] <martin1989> hi people
[22:36] <shadaloo> alsa_pcm is coming up blank
[22:36] <martin1989> does someone use mate desktop?
[22:36] <martin1989> i want to change some appearence settings on my mate desktop
[22:36] <hal14450> i used to install Ubuntu on friends machines and/or advise them to then use the windows bootloader to pass on booting linux to grub because inevitably if they'd remove linux and grub it would leave the machine unbootable
[22:37] <martin1989> i checked on "appearence" already
[22:37] <hal14450> that process was complicated and annoying
[22:38] <shadaloo> is there an alsa channel -.-
[22:43] <Stinky_Feet> shadaloo: irc://irc.freenode.info/#alsa
[22:43] <shadaloo> yeah I found it
[22:43] <hal14450> shadaloo, i'm not familiar with meterbridge
[22:43] <shadaloo> not really active
[22:43] <mrkie> k1l_: can you give me the command again to type in the terminal?
[22:43] <shadaloo> trying to google for 'linux audio ports' isn't really informative
[22:45] <mrkie> shadaloo: i now started the ubuntu preview, it will not detect the partition ext3 or any other partition i've made
[22:45] <bithon> does anyone know why i get the following error http://termbin.com/jarp
[22:45] <shadaloo> mrkie:
[22:46] <k1l_> mrkie: "sudo parted -l"
[22:46] <bithon> when i attempt to install 4.4 kernel that i got from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4-wily/
[22:46] <shadaloo> make sure you run
[22:46] <shadaloo> sudo gparted
[22:46] <shadaloo> gparted is a powerful tool that needs superuser privs
[22:46] <k1l_> shadaloo: dont run sudo on gui programs
[22:46] <shadaloo> or you could just not
[22:46] <shadaloo> and follow the instructions
[22:46] <k1l_> shadaloo: starting gparted will ask request priviledges anyway
[22:47] <bob2017> can someone help?  two of my three monitors get recognized but none show video
[22:47] <hal14450> shadaloo, so it looks to me like that's a plugin for use with JACK right?
[22:47] <shadaloo> hal14450: yeah
[22:48] <k1l_> bithon: seems like that non ubuntu repo kernel got issues
[22:49] <bithon> well that's the official ppa for the latest kernel. i'm not really that experienced when it comes to configuring my own .config to compile myself
[22:49] <bithon> what can i do about it
[22:49] <k1l_> bithon: try with the original kernel. or try another mainline kernel
[22:50] <mrkie> k1l_: it tells: Warning: /dev/sda contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table. However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, and it should. Perhaphs it was corrupted -- possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT partition tables. Or perphaps you deleted the GPT table, and you are using an msdos table. It this a GPT partion table Yes//No?
[22:50] <hal14450> shadaloo, alsa-info.sh looks like it might be helpful
[22:50] <mrkie> k1l_: now? :)
[22:50] <shadaloo> hal14450: alrighty, will take a look
[22:50]  * hal14450 doesn't use JACK :(
[22:50] <bithon> kil_: is there a generic .config for 4.4-ish kernel ?
[22:50] <mrkie> shadaloo: i started gparted from the gui already
[22:51] <Stinky_Feet> bithon: Or try to make the tool chain match the one the kernel was intended for.
[22:51] <shadaloo> mrkie: awesome
[22:51] <mrkie> shadaloo: it doesn't read any valid partition
[22:51] <k1l_> mrkie: yes
[22:51] <shadaloo> mrkie: at this point I would suggest starting over from scratch
[22:52] <shadaloo> mrkie: if you can't even see anything
[22:52] <mrkie> it is just exact the same as here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2236762
[22:52] <mrkie> they solved it by doing things
[22:52] <mrkie> woops
[22:52] <mrkie> not that url
[22:52] <shadaloo> mrkie: right but unless your drive is slow as balls you'd probably get it working faster doing it right from the gate
[22:52] <mrkie> http://superuser.com/questions/744916/ubuntu-14-04-installer-doesnt-show-existing-partitions
[22:52] <mrkie> this one
[22:53] <k1l_> mrkie: so that is a clean new install?
[22:53] <mrkie> k1l_: i only installed windows 10
[22:53] <mrkie> made 1 partition of 80% of thd etiiaze
[22:53] <manos2864> anyone know if raspberry pi 2 with ubuntu mate can run exagear desktop?
[22:53] <k1l_> mrkie: can you pastebin a "sudo parted -l" ?
[22:54] <shadaloo> mrkie: just reinstall windows
[22:54] <shadaloo> to use the entire drive
[22:56] <imnichol> can anyone suggest an irc bouncer?
[22:57] <k1l_> znc
[22:59] <Seveas> My IRC setup is irssi+znc :)
[22:59] <Seveas> irssi can be its own bouncer these days as well, haven't played with that yet.
[23:00] <imnichol> I've heard good things about znc
[23:00] <imnichol> I guess I'll go with that
[23:00] <k1l_> Seveas: irssi-proxy works. i am using it
[23:01] <Seveas> k1l_: I'm not surprised that it works :)
[23:01] <k1l_> and well, irssi in screen is already some sort of bouncer :)
[23:01] <spupuser> how do I read
[23:01] <spupuser> command notation ?
[23:01] <arimura> Whatsup guys
[23:01] <spupuser> like the pipes
[23:02] <nicomachus> huh. znc is in the repos now...
[23:03] <Seveas> nicomachus: and has been for quite a while... (Sept. 2006)
[23:04] <Stinky_Feet> nicomachus: quassel rulez

[23:06] <shadaloo> xD
[23:06] <spupuser> what does like
[23:06] <spupuser> --
[23:06] <spupuser> vs -
[23:07] <spupuser> mean
[23:07] <mrkie> k1l_: i fixed it, i did sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda
[23:07] <spupuser> and then theres a letter after
[23:07] <mrkie> k1l_: i did give option 1 that it is mbr, now i started the installation again within the live preview of ubuntu, i did format it as being ext4
[23:08] <mrkie> k1l_: it is sda5
[23:08] <k1l_> !paste | mrkie
[23:08] <mrkie> k1l_: 1 have 1 ntfs partion and also another one, how could it be sda5? so high?
[23:09] <mrkie> is that normal?
[23:09] <RoadRunner> can't seem to add new app icons to CairoDock's stack applet without orignal app icons being replaced by generic system ones
[23:10] <Stinky_Feet> spupuser: Most UNIX/Linux commands are long and explain them selfs, like --long or --verbose. When you have typed them long enough to make your fingertips bleed you want a shortcut. The shortcuts are single characters and single hyphen: -l -v. To make things complicated there are no real standards, every programmer that has provided somthing that is still in use today since the 1970's has introduced something new. Use man to get to
[23:10] <Stinky_Feet>  know how it works: man ls
[23:11] <svetlana> usually there also is a clicky thingy to show the same without learning commands (most file managers can list you files in a desired way)
[23:12] <Stinky_Feet> Please replace "commands" above with "arguments"
[23:13] <CampSoup_Doctor> Hello, I have had Ubuntu 14.04 running on my computer for over a year now, today, when I tried booting it, it was booting into GRUB Rescue with the error of "error: attempt to read or write outside of disk 'hd0'".  After a numerous of different tutorials with mixed results.  In a minute, I will post the results of the boot-repair that I just ran on my computer using a live-cd (it will be posted by CampSoup_Patient)
[23:13] <Seveas> Stinky_Feet: and don't forget annoying tools that take their options with or without dashes, such as top or tar...
[23:13] <CampSoup_Patient> Here is the boot-repair results: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14561840/
[23:14] <Stinky_Feet> Seveas: There are also those that deliberately brakes the standard just to make you think before you hit the button, like dd.
[23:18] <inferno> shadaloo: Poor CPU'? Dosent go over 30% and im running crome, putty, modded minecraft and the VM'd ubuntu? Poor CPU, pfft.
[23:20] <shadaloo> inferno: yes, but i'm running now .3-.5% xD
[23:20] <shadaloo> i7 4790k
[23:21] <shadaloo> chromium, transmission, nightinggale, gnome term
[23:21] <CampSoup_Doctor> Does anyone have any advice on how to repair the grub?
[23:22] <spupuser> what are the basics of linux file systems?
[23:22] <shadaloo> spupuser: http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/sect_03_01.html
[23:22] <k1l_> !rute | spupuser
[23:24] <hal14450> CampSoup_Doctor, that's looking like you've got some weird things going on in regards to the partitions
[23:24] <hal14450> Partition  Boot  Start Sector    End Sector  # of Sectors  Id System

[23:25] <hal14450> that doesn't look right at all
[23:25] <Seveas> hal14450: what's weird about that?
[23:25] <bekks> hal14450: Looks perfectly OK.
[23:25] <CampSoup_Doctor> I ran the program using a live-cd so I dont know if that could have caused it to look a little weird?
[23:25] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_Doctor: What I see is a LOT of old kernels installed .. running out of room and the last kernel could not install ? ( mine latest 3.13.0-74-generic ) . Can you boot an older kernel from grub's boot menu ?

[23:26] <arimura> Hello! I need update ubuntu 15.04 to 15.10, but error
[23:26] <hal14450> not compared to mine
[23:26] <Seveas> hal14450: stop pasting!
[23:26] <CampSoup_Doctor> I tried the last two or three kernals and it either restarted to rescue grub or minimal grub
[23:26] <k1l_> arimura: what error? can you pastebin the error?
[23:26] <CampSoup_Doctor> err the top two kernals
[23:26] <inferno> shadaloo: considering its a VM and that I got 3 other programs running, I think Im doing very good on my OC'd to 3.9GHz's i5-4690k
[23:26] <Seveas> hal14450: also, your sda5/6/7 all live inside sda2
[23:26] <hal14450> the sector counts are off no?
[23:27] <Seveas> no
[23:27] <bekks> hal14450: No.
[23:27] <shadaloo> inferno: i mean, why though? why are you virtualizing windows?
[23:27] <shadaloo> linux in windows*
[23:27] <svetlana> arimura: what error?
[23:28] <k1l_> shadaloo: its ok to virtualize a linux. no need to make a drama
[23:28] <inferno> shadaloo: cause as k1l_ says its a good way to manage sshfs... I guess? Idk
[23:28] <inferno> something along those lines
[23:28] <svetlana> what are you trying to do if you don't mind me asking? I don't oppose it, but I do not follow the whole picture yet, inferno
[23:28] <k1l_> inferno: i said: i know how to use it in ubuntu and its very easy. you can still look up how to use it on windows. i dont know that.
[23:28] <shadaloo> no drama here, to each their own
[23:29] <shadaloo> just wondering what the function is
[23:29] <shadaloo> other than novelty
[23:29] <inferno> k1l_: I already got the VM running as stated in http://puu.sh/mzzPs/35afbc1a2b.jpg

[23:30] <k1l_> !paste | arimura
[23:30] <spupuser> is it true that everythings a file

[23:30] <k1l_> arimura: put all the output there.
[23:31] <arimura> one moment
[23:31] <shadaloo> spupuser: lol

[23:32] <shadaloo> spupuser: what else could it be?
[23:32] <k1l_> !br | bgr_
[23:32] <spupuser> shadaloo, even the GUI ?
[23:32] <spupuser> it could just be a section of memory I guess
[23:32] <shadaloo> spupuser: you can't have a computer without memory
[23:32] <k1l_> spupuser: for that theoretical philosophy better ask in ##linux or #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:32] <arimura> in all updates version of ubuntu, i have the same problem
[23:33] <shadaloo> spupuser: but you will not use memory unless you're executing something off of media
[23:33] <CampSoup_Doctor> Any suggestions what I should do?
[23:33] <k1l_> arimura: please run a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and put all the output into paste.ubuntu.com and show the link here
[23:33] <arimura> the 14.04 to 14.10 and 14.10 to 15.04... and i install on zero (new)
[23:34] <spupuser> what do you mean shadaloo
[23:35] <arimura> k1l_: i run .... please the moment

[23:36] <k1l_> arimura: please use a pastebin. last time i ask you now
[23:37] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_Doctor: My last . Can you boot an older kernel ? I do believe we need to remove those old kernels and get you updated .
[23:37] <davidw> so... it looks like there's no upgrade path from 14.10 anymore besides waiting for the next LTS ? :-/
[23:37] <CampSoup_Doctor> I tried two or three of the kernals, but not all of them, do you want me to try all of them?
[23:38] <Bashing-om> !eol | davidw
[23:38] <arimura> k1l_: ok
[23:38] <k1l_> davidw: 14.10 is already dead and 15.04 will be dead end of january. so that doesnt really make sense
[23:38] <davidw> sorry, 14.04
[23:38] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_Doctor: Mo ..if a couple of the other older ones do not boot .. no need to keep trying .
[23:39] <CampSoup_Doctor> Ok
[23:39] <CampSoup_Doctor> Then what would you suggest that I do next?
[23:39] <arimura> k1l_: whats is "pastebin"?
[23:39] <Bashing-om> davidw: Nest advise is to await the .1 release of 16.04 ... and do a LTS-LTS upgrade .
[23:39] <k1l_> !paste  | arimura
[23:40] <davidw> Bashing-om, yeah... looks like that's about it... damn :-/
[23:41] <Ben64> davidw: why do you want to upgrade
[23:41] <davidw> Ben64, generally age of various packages in 14.10
[23:41] <davidw> sorry, 14.04
[23:41] <Bashing-om> davidw: If you must upgrade at this time to 15.10 .. you must go through the EOL 14.10 path .
[23:41] <arimura> k1l_: i dont know by this rules
[23:42] <Ben64> !latest | davidw
[23:42] <arimura> k1l_: soo sorry
[23:42] <Bashing-om> !tab | CampSoup_Doctor
[23:42] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_Doctor: do you have on-hand a liveDVD of 14.04 ?
[23:42] <k1l_> arimura: you are making it more difficult than it should be. i asked you several times to put all the terminal output into the pastebin and show the link here, so we can have a look
[23:42] <davidw> Ben64, !latest is fine, but newer than what I have is useful
[23:42] <arimura> k1l_: because i view other user paste the great lines... sorry
[23:43] <Ben64> davidw: for what purpose
[23:43] <CampSoup_Doctor> Bashing-om: That is how I currently have my computer booted in order to do the boot-repair
[23:43] <k1l_> arimura: its about letting us see what is happening.
[23:44] <davidw> Ben64, there are just a variety of packages that have newer versions in more recent versions of Ubuntu. I've checked.  They're things I use.

[23:44] <Ben64> davidw: ok... but you're still not giving a reason besides "newer"
[23:45] <davidw> Ben64, some of the new packages have functionality I need.
[23:45] <Ben64> like...
[23:45] <davidw> the old packages do not have said functionailty
[23:46] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_Doctor: Try this then .. in that liveDVD ---- reboot and as soon as the bios screen clears press a shift key -> language screen, escape key to accept the default -> boot options menu . What results when choosing the option " boot from first hard drive " ? If we can get ya booted we can then work on kernels .
[23:46] <CampSoup_Doctor> Ok, give me a minute to try that
[23:48] <davidw> looks like waiting 3 months is probably a better bet than running into a bunch of potential hassles
[23:48] <Ben64> davidw:  maybe if you were more specific about what you want there could be another option
[23:49] <CampSoup_Doctor> Bashing-om: I am given the GRUB menu asking if I want to boot Ubuntu, advance options for Ubuntu, and the two Memory Tetsts
[23:50] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_Doctor: Advanced -> older kernel .
[23:51] <bob2017> hey… looks like i got disconnected right after asking for help.  two of my three monitors get recognized but none show video.  The one that’s not recognized is the DVI.  All three are recognized by livecd.
[23:51] <inferno> k1l_: Aright so I got the VM what would I need to do now?
[23:52] <CampSoup_Doctor> Bashing-om: I get a very long list of kernals, both regular ones and recovery mode kernals.  Pick the most recent one, oldest one, or middle one, and recovery or regular?
[23:53] <Bashing-om> middle one for now ... but a recovery one might be the better option next try if a normal kernel will not boot .
[23:54] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_Doctor: ^^ sorry bout forgetting to highlight you .
[23:54] <k1l_> inferno: in nautilus use in menu "connect to server" then choose "ssh://user@serverip"
[23:54] <austrinus> I'm trying to install ubuntu 14.04 alongside windows 10 and I keep getting "grub-install /dev/sda failed" error
[23:56] <CampSoup_Doctor> Bashing-om: tried 3.11.0-22 (regular) and it just restarted my computer, trying the recovery version of the same kernal and it seems like the computer might have frozen while loading initial ramdisk
[23:57] <nicomachus> 3.11?
[23:58] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: is this a ubuntu 12.04?
[23:58] <CampSoup_Doctor> 14.04
[23:58] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: kernel 3.11 is not 14.04
[23:58] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: 14.04
[23:58] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: please make sure "linux-generic" ist installed
[23:59] <k1l_> !info linux-generic trusty
[23:59] <inferno> k1l_: When I look up 'nautilus' it gives me the sea creature lol, is it a program im supposeto download? or the terminal?
[23:59] <bob2017> have i mentioned how awesome my issue is and how happyt he person will be who solves it?
