k1l_CampSoup_Doctor: boot any kernel that will boot to a working system00:03
k1l_CampSoup_Doctor: is this encrypted or lvm or such?00:04
infernok1l_: alright00:04
CampSoup_Doctork1l_: only way so far is via live-cd00:04
CampSoup_Doctork1l_:  its not encrypted00:04
bocephus_anybody here get their CompTIA Linux+ Cert?00:05
k1l_inferno: "file browser". that is computer basics, right? i mean you do use such a thing on windows too. it look quite the same. please dont turn off your brain just because its labled linux.00:05
Jordan_U!ot | bocephus_00:05
ubottubocephus_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks!00:05
infernok1l_: Yea sorry lol, I got it, I got to the connect server, so now just write the "ssh://user@serverip"?00:06

k1l_CampSoup_Doctor: chroot into the install. then install linux-generic, or run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"00:10
CampSoup_Doctork1l_: How to I chroot?00:10
andres__hola00:11
k1l_!chroot00:12
ubottuA chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot00:12
k1l_i cant find a good english chroot howto00:13
infernoshadaloo: Also as an avid gamer, I cant bring my self to only use Linux, not enough support, but dont get me wrong, I do think it is a great platform, and its also free, one if the many great things about it00:14
CampSoup_Doctork1l_: I wish you had one as the page you linked is a bit too technical for me00:14
shadalooinferno: sure sure00:14
shadalooinferno: I game too00:15
shadalooinferno: but when im down I switch back to linux for regular stuff ;)00:15
infernoshadaloo: Dual boot or somethin?00:15

infernok1l_: I mean to the VM, and then to the server00:22
anabaincan this be done: start a local app from a remote host (via ssh root@local ,etc.) before it is shut down *while* keeping the local app running?00:24
Ben64anabain: can you explain a bit more? i'm confused when you say "before it is shut down" and what you mean by local app00:25
Jordan_Uanabain: I don't understand your question. What does "start a local app from a remote host" mean?00:25
anabainbox a: target, the app has to be started here; box b: runs a script before it is shut down which starts the app on box a00:26
anabainBen64, Jordan_U ^00:27
Jordan_Uanabain: Yes, that can be done. What is your end goal?00:27
CampSoup_Doctork1l_: In the tutorial, step 4, I was getting message saying bash: /mnt:: No such file or directory00:28
k1l_did you cops the : ?00:29
CampSoup_DoctorBashing-om: When I tried that, I got bash: syntax error near unexpected token 'do'00:29
anabainit's a bit long to explain, basically I'm making a script that prevent client hanging when the server is shut down. The server's nfs shares will cause a series of problems and annoyances, from freezing dolphin to hanging all the system.00:29
anabainJordan_U, my script kills client's dolphin instances and then *restarts new dolphin instances*, that's where my questions arises...00:30
Bashing-omCampSoup_Doctor: The complete command is ' for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done ' after the mount point is established .00:31
anabainJordan_U, so, what then?00:31
Jordan_Uanabain: So the server being shut down is the NFS server which you have been asking about in previous questions here (IIRC), correct?00:31
anabainyes00:32
anabainI've managed to make it go_home dir through qdbus00:32
Jordan_Uanabain: Is the server rebooting for updates or shutting down for some other reason?00:33
anabainJordan_U, but it isn't enough: unless you kill dolphin processes, trouble is simply a matter of time.00:33
drwxr-x---dolphin killing is illegal00:34
anabainJordan_U, the "server" is not a "real" server actually. I'm just sharing files among my home boxes, so the "server" gets shut down arbitrarily, in a domestic sense, so to say, :)00:34

TheEnderCreeper0help00:39
k1l_TheEnderCreeper0: enough "help" now.00:40
Jordan_Uanabain: You'd need to setup ssh authentication via keys rather than password, as presumably you don't want this to need user interaction, and you'd also need to get systemd to run your ssh script before shutdown. I'm still not convinced that this is the ideal way to solve your original problem, though I don't remember your original problem with NFS and dolphin.00:40
k1l_adoniscik: "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade"00:40

drwxr-x---does kernel have something to do with mouse sensitivity? under ubuntu 14.04.3/lm 17/17.1/17.2, mouse sensitivity are fine... but under ubuntu 15.10 (haven't tried 15.04) and 17.3, mouse sensitivity is very sensitive... it feels like i have a cheap mouse00:41

Jordan_UTheEnderCreeper0: The "hey", "help", "can anyone help me", etc messages don't bring us any closer to helping you with your question. Those commends do however clutter the channel, and make us annoyed and thus reduces our desire to help you. Don't post any more such useless messages unless you wish to be removed from the channel.00:42

adoniscikthanks, k1l_ i think that helped but i will have to investigate for a while00:44
anabainJordan_U, the ssh part is already set up, as I said before. As for the problem, it is simple: shutting down the server causes freezing problems at the client on various degrees.00:44
k1l_adoniscik: you need to run "apt full-upgrade" to install hold back packages00:44
anabainJordan_U, the systemd part is already done, btw00:45
anabainJordan_U, these parts work seamlessly.00:45

CampSoup_Doctork1l_: Ill check it in a few minutes, that might be a possibility.  I had cleaned out my computer a week or so ago, when I tried to boot it afterwards, it said that it did not detect a hard drive, so i checked the cables, and I hadnt used it again until today, because my monitor fried when I re-hooked up the computer01:06

birardaI’m planning on partioning the 4TB to 2x2TB partitions, one will be in the RAID 5 array, the other I wanted to use for media (that I don’t need in the RAID array)01:53

malibuBashing-om: Ok so I guess this means that the squeezeplay player is now obsolete in ubuntu 15?02:29
test123first time here, how i answer to you as twetter here, eg @svetalana02:29
svetlanatest123: type s, v, tab and it'll complete my nickname (without the @ is fine)02:29
nicomachustest123: no need for @, you can just type the name. you can also just type the first couple letters then hit [TAB]02:30
Bashing-omtest123: Both ' echo $DESKTOP_SESSION " " $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP ' .02:30
bob2017bashing-on - won’t it still try to start on the next boot?02:30
Bashing-ommalibu: What response do you get feom the repo query ' apt-cache show <package_name> ' ?02:31
malibuI tried an apt-cache search... didn't find it02:31
Bashing-ombob2017: You want to boot to terminal rather than the GUI ?02:32
bob2017bashing - yes02:32
bob2017and the kernel command line isn’t working02:32
malibuI just downloaded the .deb manually and it seems to have installed after I did apt-get install libx86-102:32
malibugoing to see if the player starts up02:32
test123svetlana: nicomachus Bashing-om thank you02:32
svetlanayou're welcome, test123; have you got the WM using the above or not yet?02:33
Bashing-ombob2017: Boot parameter " systemd.unit=multi-user.target " in the file '/etc/default/grub' .02:34
test123xfce, $DESKTOP_SESSION & XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP svetlana02:34
bob2017bashing-om i’m not using grub.02:34
anabaindoes sync command also work on remote files? I mean, if in box A, which has opened rw files from box B, a sync command is run, will this have any effects on files from box B?02:34
OneM_IndustriesHello! I am attempting to use a shuttlepro2 with Ubuntu 14.04, but I cannot seem to figure out how to do this. There does not appear to be a driver listed for it, but I am hoping that someone may know a way around this. Thank you!02:34
Bashing-ombob2017: Not an ubuntu issue ? As grub is the bootloader for 'buntu .02:35
malibuBashing-om: Strange.. so that worked.  Any idea why the library would have been left out of the repository for wily?02:35
bob2017bashing-om grub is not the only way to load ubuntu.02:35
svetlanatest123: excellent :) welcome to freenode and the ubuntu channel and stuff, too02:36
Bashing-ombob2017: Truem there are many bootloaders around . None other for buntu that I have used .02:36
svetlanatest123: (you're welcome to stay here to help others, to come and go when you like, and to explore other channels)02:36
bob2017bashing-om so you don’t know the answer. that’s ok.02:37
test123svetlana: I ask the question because first i have ubuntu, then i used apt to install lubuntu and remove unity, also i installed xfce.  Now i have a lot of things in my system, and for example, now i cant control the volumen02:37
test123svetlana: with my function keys02:38
svetlanatest123, oh I see. you can't control the volume with your function keys. these are keys on the keyboard, right?02:38
Bashing-ombob2017: Told you the answer. just adapt that boot parameter to the bootloader you are using ... the systemd command is universal .02:38
test123svetlana: yes02:38
test123svetlana: i read about xbindkeys, but i want a workaround with my systm02:39

svetlanatest123, upload a screenshot to www.imgur.com and maybe someone here can tell you what DE you are using -- that's odd02:43
Bashing-ommalibu: :) .. 'buntu ! where there is a will there is a way ... good job !02:44
malibuBashing-om: Yeah but what I'm trying to say is that it seems to be an oversight that this library was omitted02:45
EriC^^llldino: ok, try first using the windows efi partition, cause otherwise you'd have to remove the swap partition to create one on the linux disk02:45
llldinoAlright02:45
Bashing-ommalibu: No idea how to bring that to the atttention of the MOTU .02:46

svetlanalerner, oh you do not use 'chown' to check. the command I gave is a separate command.05:27

hrobjarturOk so in the ubuntu config panel there is a trademark name "Wacom"05:35
hrobjarturinstead of saying "pen device/touch device" config it says "wacom" config05:35
lernercan I rename an encrypted hdd? its name is the one from factory and is not easy to discern05:36
hrobjarturdoes anyone know the motivation for Ubuntu ignoring other usb input devices "ISO" compliant devices?05:36
gagaliciouskickstart configurator05:36
hrobjarturI noticed there is clearly a logic in the "Wacom" config on ubuntu that intentionally rejects orther USB compliant pen devices05:36

hrobjarturbesides being probably a first linux distro to have a proprietary trademark as a configuration tool05:37

bob2017svetlana: don’t you want to help me with my monitors?05:39
svetlanabob2017, hi. regarding lightdm it depends on your init system - which one are you using?. regarding monitors I use the DE settings menu or arandr program.05:41
bob2017svetlana:  Its ubuntu 15.04, so i guess systemdm, which I’ve never used otherwise. did you mean xrandr?  xrandr always reports one “default” monitor, even when xorg.conf shows two were properly identified.05:42
svetlanabob2017, systemctl disable lightdm05:43
bob2017ok… any ideas for getting the monitors recognized?05:43
test123svetlana: i just installed.  But i cant find the quicklaunch icon05:44
lernerhow do I rename an external hdd?05:44
svetlanabob2017, interesting. how did you create xorg.conf? it usually is absent.05:45
svetlanatest123, it's peculiar. try to create the icon by hand and see if that works.05:45
bob2017svetlana:  by hand.  there’s been a whole saga here.  The monitors have only worked once, and I just can’t remember how i did it, except i’d unplugged two and plugged them in one at a time05:46
bob2017svetlana:  i got the idea that the time it worked, it may have been when i used an xorg.conf made with aticonfig to create a dual head configuraiton05:47
bob2017svetlana: so i tried to make one by hand05:47
svetlanaokay. you made it work by hand, but you can't get xrandr to understand the fact. would you pastebin your config, please?05:47
bob2017svetlana: well but xrandr was doing the same thing without the xorg.conf05:47
bob2017but i can pastebin that, and i have like 4 sets of logs from boots in different configurations, so whatever you’d like :p05:47
test123svetlana: in terminal, kodi dont work05:47
svetlanabob2017, what if you remove xorg.conf and start xrandr again? mind, in xrandr you may have to move the monitor around a bit. by default they overlap and it looks as if there was only one.05:48
bob2017svetlana:  here - http://paste.ubuntu.com/14565379/05:48
bob2017svetlana:  xrandr without the xorg.conf just says it found the one default monitor, and no video goes on.  with the xorg.conf, its the same, but the log reports it finding two of the three monitors properly05:49
bob2017svetlana:  and here is the log http://paste.ubuntu.com/14565391/   note that it finds two of the monitors, then it finds the second monitor *twice*, or at least that’s what it seems05:51

TAFBsorry, the exact error is: 500 OOPS: could not bind listening IPv4 socket07:08
somsipTAFB: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/185190/installing-vsftpd-500-oops-could-not-bind-listening-ipv4-socket07:08
FlannelTAFB: You have no /etc/vsftpd.conf?07:09
TAFBnope, it doesn't exist :(07:09
FlannelTAFB: Is this the first time you're trying to install vsftpd?07:09
TAFByep! fresh seedbox07:09
FlannelTAFB: Ok, go ahead and `sudo apt-get purge vsftpd`, then `dpkg -l | grep vsftpd` and see if anything shows up (it shouldn't)07:10
TAFBi just tried "sudo apt-get install --reinstall vsftpd" and it completed, but no /etc/vsftpd.conf gile :(07:10
TAFBok, I'll try that!07:11
TAFBok, did that, dpkg -l | grep vsftpd shows nothing.07:11
FlannelTAFB: Alright, good.  Now, install vsftpd again (sudo apt-get install vsftpd), and then check if /etc/vsftpd.conf exists07:12

TAFBfor bitkenic multiple ftp download streams, sftp says it doesn't support the correct encryption type :(07:14

=== Saulo is now known as Guest55260
TAFBFlannel: Working flawless now, thanks so much!07:25
FlannelTAFB: No problem.  `dpkg -l | grep rc`  will show you the rest of the packages that were installed at one point and potentially won't install cleanly next time (you can purge them to get rid of the remnants)07:26
TAFBwhat's the difference between "apt-get remove" and apt-get purge??07:27
TAFBI was always doing remove, didn't fix nothin07:27
FlannelTAFB: Remove will keep the config files (and won't reinstall them the next time you install the package).  Purge removes "everything"07:28
TAFBahhh, good to know!07:28
TAFBI also had to set seccomp_sandbox=no but that was already in the seedbox instructions07:29
FlannelTAFB: "wont reinstall" means your changes are safe, even if those changes are "totally break" the config or "remove [it] completely"07:29

gordonjcpJinBaba: made *from*, as in everything that's sending a DNS query?09:04
gordonjcpJinBaba: there's a couple of ways to do it; you could specify your own DNS server and log everything from a given host09:04
JinBabayes09:04
gordonjcpor you could just run tcpdump on the host with a suitable filter string09:04
JinBabaall dns resolve requests being made to the dns server by my pc09:05
gordonjcpif you say "tcpdump port dns -w <somefile.pcap>" it will capture all packets going to and from DNS09:05
OerHeksYou can have tcpdump log all port 53 activity.09:05
OerHeksgordonjcp +109:05
gordonjcpyou can then read that file with wireshark09:05

OerHekstcpdump is09:06
gordonjcpI've got a couple of 1kW floodlights, they're very specific and generate lots of light09:06
JinBabathat could be left running in the background and maintains list of all dns queries made categories by days of week09:06
gordonjcpJinBaba: you'd have to work out how to split out the packet dump yourself thne09:07
gordonjcp*then09:07
gordonjcpit might be easier to run your own DNS and parse its logs09:07

thelonius3Hey all, having an issue with Ubuntu 14.04 on an ~2012 vintage HP Laptop. Main Hard drive is OCZ-Agility3 SSD with 2 partitions: "/boot" and "/". Whenever I interrupt the bootup (holding power button) of an external device(Ubuntu on an external USB or Live-CD on a flash drive), I later find that my primary SSD's Ubuntu installation is messed up. Its symptoms are that USB ports don't work, PC won't shutdown or reboot without holding power button (hangs09:10
thelonius3at scrolling "ubuntu" screen), and it seems to mess with fglrx driver. It eventually fixes itself randomly after a certain amount of recursive uninstalls/re-installations of linux-image-3.13.0-xx-generic (whichever is current/in-use). How do I begin troubleshooting this?09:10
gordonjcpthere might be, but there are already better tools for doing it09:10
JinBabagordonjcp, If I start sniffing with Wireshark with the dns filter, will it still capture all traffic or just dns?09:12
JinBabaI just want dns09:12
gordonjcpJinBaba: you can do either09:14

alkisgHi, I've added a network printer at hp:/net/hp_LaserJet_4200?ip=192.168.1.123 (discovered from the printers dialog).10:34
alkisgWhen the printer gets a new IP from the router, Gnome no longer finds it (in 16.04), and I have to manually update the IP in the printers dialog.10:34
alkisgIn previous Ubuntu versions this was working fine, but I don't remember if it had the same URI or not.10:34
alkisgAny hints? I don't want to set up a static IP on this printer... Do I need a different URI?10:34

JinBabagordonjcp, right, and I want to see each and every query being made, at first and then I can decide how to automate this hunting process.10:42

JinBabagordonjcp, why do you think it's arse-backwards?10:43
gordonjcpJinBaba: scanning your DNS requests for evidence of naughty behaviour is a pretty much textbook example of shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted10:44
JinBabagordonjcp, what are you trying to suggest?10:45

JinBabagordonjcp,  I have taken certain steps to ensure that but I'm not quite satisfied. This is what I have configured for monitoring the security of my laptop: a. Antivirus,  b. Host based, 3rd party Firewall, c. OS built-in firewall. d. Sandbox for new binaries e. Custom netstat scripts10:53

LopeHow can I construct one of these strings from an EDID mode offered by my monitor? (looks like this "3840x1200_60.00"  386.75  3840 4104 4512 5184  1200 1203 1213 1245 -hsync +vsync) I want to take the string from my monitor's EDID spec, I don't want to generate it from `cvt`. Anyone know how? (xrandr --verbose produces a lot of output but I'm not sure about what goes where, and if it includes all the details I need)12:49
k1l_Afdla: was it properly unmounted on the other device?12:50
jonscan anyonehelp me building/compiling birdie which i cloned from github?12:50
AndChat464025!ping12:50
ubottupong!12:50
Afdlak1l_ well no, but it didn't show before trying on the other machine either12:50
k1l_Afdla: could still be a broken sd card12:50
AfdlaWell yeah, if it broke after removing from the other computer12:51
k1l_jons: i bet they have a readme or a howto install12:51
AfdlaI'll try it again on the other laptop12:51
Lopebasically I want a similar string to what `cvt 1920 1200 60` produces, but I want to get the manufacturer recommended timing from my monitor's EDID. `xrandr --verbose` gives a lot of info but it's not in that format.12:51
jonsk1l_: i tried that. getting a "no rule to make target 'install' "error12:53
Afdlak1l_ still works on the other laptop. Tried creating folder and txt file there but still can't open it on this one12:53
Afdlaused unmount before removing the card12:54
k1l_Afdla: can you try another kernel in grub?12:54
cpaelzerLope: does "sudo /usr/bin/get-edid | parse-edid" give you anything useful on your monitor?12:55
AfdlaSounds difficult. How?12:56
AfdlaOh and this laptop where it doesn't work is 15.10 and the working one is 14.0412:56
k1l_Afdla: when you boot your ubuntu choose another kernel in grub12:57

k1l_jons: so why dont you use their PPA?13:00
jonsk1l_:its the old version... And i want to learn building apps13:01
k1l_jons: so did you install the depencies and then follow the instructions? http://www.birdieapp.eu/help#tocAnchor-1-1-313:02
Afdlak1l_: booting to kernel 3.13 worked13:02
Afdlanow I can access the card13:02
jonsk1l_:  yup13:02
AfdlaI will try again later on the 4.20 or what ever the newest version was13:02
k1l_Afdla: then you might want to file a bug13:02
jonsfollowed the same page13:03
k1l_Afdla: that sounds like a non-ubuntu kernel13:03
AfdlaI run Ubuntu 15.1013:03
AfdlaJust uninstalled Unity and installed XFCE13:03
AfdlaWhere should I report this bug? Linux kernel github or Ubuntu VCS or what?13:04

RansomTimeHi, I did a fresh install of kubuntu, and then pressed CTRL + ALT + 1 to get a tty, logged in and my system froze and had to be rebooted. Did it again and it did the same thing. Any way I could find out what's going on here?13:12
baizonRansomTime: check logs /var/log/13:14
MunsterRansomTime, update and upgrade your packages in the tty. Also which gpu are you running?13:15
RansomTimeNvidia, probably not installed drivers. Might that be the cause?13:16
baizonRansomTime: yes, nvidias open source drivers arent the best13:16
MunsterRansomTime, could be , but usually nouveau works quite well as default13:17
RansomTimeDriver manager says I can install processor microcode from intel and nvidia binary drivers. I'll try that13:18
MunsterRansomTime, so you managed to get a desktop13:21
RansomTimeYeah, desktop was fine13:22
RansomTimeit's just when logging into the terminal13:22
Munsterok , i thought you meant it froze at the login13:23
Munsterpage13:23
RansomTimeOk I installed the display drivers and now it boots to a blank screen13:27

k1l_!nomodeset | RansomTime13:30
ubottuRansomTime: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter13:30
k1l_some video cards do need that setting13:30
Munsterk1 most nvidias don't , but it'13:31
RansomTimeI'll check that out. Thanks13:31
Munsters worth a try \13:31
Munsternever had to use nomodeset with nvidia here13:32
k1l_Munster: if you have a card that needs it, you will need it.13:32
Munsterk1l_, yeah, usually it';s amd/ati that needs it13:33
RansomTimeBooting with nomodeset now13:35
RansomTimeJust getting a flashing underscore13:35

Lopecpaelzer: the modeline produced by GTF doesn't work on my equipment at 3840x1200 @60hz at all. It does work at 59hz but all the artifacts are still there.14:51
cpaelzerLope: too bad, I'm out of ideas for the moment :-/14:56
cpaelzerLope: good luck with the experiments on the other approaches you mentioned before14:57
Lopecpaelzer: http://codepad.org/J2X1HBsx14:59
LopeI decided to generate 1920x1080 because that's currently being offered by my display. I wanted to compare it to cvt and gtf's suggestions... can you see the difference? do you know how to make sense of all these numbers?15:00
cpaelzerLope: a lot is from the analog age, but here you see what it "means" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFree86_Modeline15:04
TheCowboyToday when I woke my desktop monitors there was a bizarre pattern, it looked like tetris and moves if you move the mouse or do anything else. When I selected shutdown, it seemed to stop doing it when it logged the user out. Here's a picture:15:05
cpaelzerLope: the one it seems to report automatically in your xrand with 148.5Mhz seems a bit high frequency :-)15:05
TheCowboy_https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/S6SGV8xF/IMG_0528.JPG15:05
cpaelzerLope: I mean honestly what this is configruring are radio frequencies - maybe your neighbor can tune into your screen now15:05
Lopecpaelzer: did you notice the frequencies suggested by cvt and gtf are higher?15:06
TheCowboyAny idea what would cause this, or if it's a prefailure symptom of something? I haven't been able to figure out the right keywords to Google it.15:07
Lopegtf and cvt suggest 172/173 mhz15:07
LopeThe format actually makes sense to me now...15:07
TheCowboyThis is on a day old install of 14.04.15:07
cpaelzerLope: just making fun - the Mhz is pixel clock, but anyway I saw that GTF < CVT15:08
cpaelzerLope: yeah those tools seems to have slightly different reading of the formulas15:08
Lopeyeah but they're WAY different to what my display asks for?15:08
Lope148mhz vs 172mhz is huge15:09
OerHeksTheCowboy, seems like overheating15:09
requiesti installed ubuntu desktop 15.4. how to mount or how to map the user from linux server to ubuntu desktop 15.415:09
TheCowboywhich part is overheating?15:09
cpaelzerLope: yes, the tools just follow the official formula, while the monitor asks for something a good way off those numbers - I saw that15:10
OerHeksTheCowboy, gpu itself15:10
TheCowboyOerHeks, I'll have to monitor that, but it seems odd to be the cause since logging out since to clear it up. It also wasn't doing anything intensive overnight.15:11
Lopecpaelzer: What's a bit disappointing is the pixel clock of 2560x720 is 131.6mhz but the pixel clock of 1280x720 is 74.2mhz. I expected double the pixels would be double the pixel clock :/15:12
Lopecpaelzer: it makes it very difficult for me to guess what 3840x1200 settings should be.15:12
cpaelzerLope: I checked my three screens and I see similar values for 1920x1080 http://paste.ubuntu.com/14567341/15:12
cpaelzerLope: what screen is this, could we maybe derive sometihng from the specs?15:13
LopeI have another idea to trick my Displayport>2xHDMI splitter to offer me that. I've got 1x controller which does ask for 1920x1200. I'll try connect it to the screen 1 port and hope the splitter offers me 3840x1200 in xrandr verbose.15:13
TheCowboyOerHeks, any thoughts on if I should install the proprietary nvidia drivers? I think I recall hearing about the open source drivers running hot.15:14

MonkeyDustTheCowboy  install thermald (daemon) if it's not already there15:15
cpaelzerLope: I might have missed part of the initial question - are these two displays combined by a HW device?15:16
cpaelzerLope: so do these two appear via ONE HDMI/DP/.. to your box ?15:17
OerHeksTheCowboy, nvidia prop driver could solve this, i would try yes15:17
OerHeksmaybe you hear less fan too15:17
Lopecpaelzer: yes. The 2 HDMI displays are combined by a displaylink device to be 1 screen of double the width of each of them15:17
cpaelzerLope: so the displaylink device is the one that passes no proper combined edid ... hmm15:18
Lopecpaelzer:  the guy who sold me the controllers for the displays botched the firmware, it only offers low resolutions, So in turn my joining device only offers me low resolutions. I can drive it with whatever resolutoins I like though,15:18
TheCowboyOerHeks, thanks15:18
OerHeksTheCowboy, use the driver tool provided, don't download from nvidia.15:19
Lopemy joining device just offers me double of the connected devices15:19
cpaelzerLope: some of the older displaylink devs only supported low resolutions anyway - what generation is that?15:19
Lopecpaelzer: it specifically says it supports 3840x1200@60hz15:20
LopeI've used it successfully with normal screens at 3840x108015:21
cpaelzerLope: normal means screen which are not screwed by their FW?15:21
cpaelzerLope: did you try "Modeline "3840x1200_59.90"  385.67  3840 4096 4512 5184  1200 1201 1204 1242  -HSync +Vsync"15:21
Lopecpaelzer: yeah that's what normal means :)15:22
cpaelzerLope: most displaylink thins I saw had the 59.9 instead of 6015:22
LopeI've tried 59hz, 59.9hz 60hz with both cvt and gtf15:23
LopeI've even tried 50hz lol :P15:23
cpaelzerLope: IMHO the two screens (other than FW issues) should not behave like others on 1920x108015:23
cpaelzerLope: so if you can run the screens fine at 1920x1080@60 alone15:24
Lopeok bro, thanks for your help. I'm going to connect a 1920x1200 screen to my splitter tomorrow and pray that it offers me 3840x1200. Then I'll just make a note of the modeline.15:24
cpaelzerLope: then when you use two "non-screwed" 1920x1080 Displays on that displaylink adapter15:24
cpaelzerLope: it should give you the numbers you need15:24
LopeI know how to construct a modeline from the xrandr --verbose now.15:24
cpaelzerLope: that is just what I meant - copy what a good screen gives you15:24
cpaelzerLope: good luck15:25
LopeYes I can run the screens fine at 1920x1200 or 1920x1080. then the screens are mirrored (or individually). It's at the high resolutions that the timing becomes a problem.15:25
LopeThere's obviously a timing error somewhere.15:25

MonkeyDustkopele  ask your real question15:28
Lopecpaelzer: as if it wasn't strange enough, if I connect one of the screens directly to my RaspberryPi's HDMI port, the RbPi detects as 1920x1200 automagically and displays it. So it's only when these displays are connected to the Displaylink joiner they show low res.15:28

cpaelzerLope: I gave up on the 1st gen displaylink devices a long time ago and since then never touched it again15:29
dmfreyKingsqueak, odd that it works in the browser, but not the cli15:29
Lopecpaelzer: I love displaylink. It allows you to connect 3 monitors to a laptop.15:29
Kingsqueakdmfrey: what that tells me is, it's not the tunnel, but some other issue, likely firewall policy for your user. If you use the native client (I think there is a linux anyconnect?) does it work that way?15:29
Kingsqueakdmfrey: or if you use the same user account but say from Mac or Windows, does it work?15:30
Lopecpaelzer: 2x HDMI plus whatever other output your laptop has (like VGA). And the performance is good and it works in linux... rather important. VS Displaylink which is a POS.15:30
Lopeciao bro15:31
dmfreyit worked from the windows that this laptop used to be15:31
Kingsqueakdmfrey: yeah odd, no more clues here15:31
dmfreyKingsqueak, thanks, i will see if i can find a native client15:32

=== venkat_331 is now known as venkat_330
dmfreythanks, i will see if I can find someone there15:33
Kingsqueakdmfrey: one last thing, just occurred to me, DNS... as in stupid, but are you resolving the name of the service you are trying to hit properly, where maybe the web interface has a 'public' that you can resolve vs the other service?15:37
dmfreyKingsqueak, no, and I think that is part of it as well. I don't think it is putting the name servers in resolv15:38
Kingsqueakah there you go15:38
Kingsqueakif you know the IP or can find out 'telnet <IP> <port>' and see if you connect15:38
dmfreythe server is behind a load balancer15:39

olutayo\quit15:40
Kingsqueakcan you SSH or anything directly to an IP elsewhere on the internal space via VPN?15:40
Kingsqueakjust to be sure you have a working tunnel is the logic15:40
dmfreylooks like i can telnet to that server on port 44315:41
Kingsqueako.k. good15:41
Kingsqueakso that proves the tunnel is up, it's likely name resolution15:42
dmfreylooks like /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf only has 127.0.0.1 as the nameserver, but it does have my companies .com as a search server, but not the .net15:44
Kingsqueakdmfrey: my butcher self would just make a script to run to put the right one in when you bring up the tunnel and swap it ouw when you bring it down, but there is likely a 'right' way to fix it too15:45
adrian_1908hello. I'm having a small problem. I recently set up my DVB-C tuner to stream TV channels with mpv. Everything worked fine but now I noticed that mpv cannot access the adapter unless I invoke w_scan (a tool to scan for channels) which appears to "activate" it somehow. Any ideas how this might be fixed?15:47
dmfreyKingsqueak, i am pinging someone there for the correct resolve.conf settings and will update them manually for now, but a script is in order for this15:47
adrian_1908I run w_scan with regular permissions btw, so nothing much is needed to activate the adapter I reckon.15:48

pgxKingsqueak: it does stop when i run the command from terminal, how do i create a script for the same stuff?16:04
logikosi tried adding the key to the authorized_keys of several users on the remote system but the only one that works is for the user that matches my local username .. for all other users my local system seems to ignore the -i argument when doing the ssh command - to test my theory (of it ignoring the -i arg) i tryed it with the .pub file: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14567515/16:04

givelloHey there, not sure if it's the right channel for the question but I'm having a little bit of trouble with nvidia drivers since updating to 358 (I think). I've got a GTX770 and every time I boot up I need to go in the nvidia settings manager, in the advanced settings, and change my refresh rate from 60Hz(1) to 60Hz(2). Otherwise, the resolution is stretched and too wide for the screen17:54
givelloI've tried using the option to save the setting to xorg.conf but it doesn't seem to have any lasting effect17:54

Ntemisalso apt says apache2.2-bin libapache2-mod-dnssd kept back but i cannot install them18:37
Ntemisdist-upgrade says all ok18:37
naccNtemis: I think you're confusing a few different things ... there are several HWE kernels (effectively one was added by each 14.04.x, I think).18:37
naccNtemis: if you don't have new hardware to enable, there's not really a reason to switch to a later HWE kernel, afaict18:38

NtemisThe following packages have been kept back:18:38

naccNtemis: probably it needs some manual intervention, try `apt-get install apache2.2-bin` to see what apt says18:39
mcphailNtemis: have you added any PPAs or other non-standard repos?18:39
Ntemisppas were cleaned out before upgrade18:40
Ntemisit needs to remove this gnome-user-share18:40
mcphailBy "cleaned out", do you mean removed from the list, or every PPA package tracked down and purged?18:40
Ntemisis it ok to be removed?18:41
Ntemisno by the upgrader18:41
mcphailNtemis: unfortunately, it isn't going to be possible to advise you. PPAs can do their own thing, messing up dependencies in ways which are not easily resolvable. It will _probably_ be OK to simply remove those packages, but noone will no for sure18:42
mcphailNtemis: that's why PPAs aren't supported18:42
Bashing-omNtemis: ' apt-cache show gnome-user-share >> Priority: optional " so will not hurt the system at large if removed .18:42

jdqxhow about upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04?19:28
MonkeyDustjdqx  in april19:29
george4nperhaps, but wait a few months19:29
artoisnot for nothing, but if you have to do a clean install for every release, you need to either learn how to update properly, or find another distro19:29
artoisreinstalling for a new version is silliness from Windows land19:29
jdqxyea i'll wait. just wondering if I can trust the upgrade procedure in that case.19:29
george4nnot really, backing up on linux is simple19:29
artoiseither you can trust it or you can't19:29
artoisif you can't, find another distro19:29
george4nand windows has many other problems that linux does not19:29
george4nsuch as bloat19:29
requiestok but in gui mode we can disable right19:30
jdqxeverything will be backed up anyways so i'll take the chance. if it failed, then a fresh install ensues.19:30
george4nrequiest , i understand what you mean now, you dont want to type your password when you login?19:30
requiestyes19:30
george4nJust go to settings, users, select your account and choose login automatically19:30
artoisjdqx: it's nice that you're safe when you waste your time utterly, but you're still wasting your time utterly19:31
austrinuscan you boot a live cd via bios but install using UEFI?19:31
artoisif you could, you wouldn't want to19:31
artoisyou having some actual problem?19:31
austrinusi'm trying to anticipate one19:31
jdqxartois: so should i stay away from ubuntu upgrade completely?19:31
austrinusi need to install ubuntu to dual boot on an existing mac19:32
requiestyes but that is for gui here i same thing want it for tty19:32
requiestwithout graphic19:32
austrinusbut i'm unsure about how to go about doing it. some people say that using the amd64+mac image is the way to go19:32
george4nfor tty its not possible19:33
artoisjdqx: you need to decide that for yourself, but these things are true: 1) you should update regularly 2) updating to the latest version should not be problematic 3) reinstalling every new version is a waste of time19:33
austrinusbut that image forces BIOS booting19:33
artoisjdqx: if you can't manage it with one distro, it's sane to try another19:33
Bashing-omaxisys: Is an old guide, but still pertinent . Page 2 is the more relevant .19:33
artoisaustrinus: problem anticipation19:33
artoisthat's what economists are paid for19:33
artoisand they make money for doing nothing useful19:33
artois=)19:33
austrinusartois: lol true. but i'd prefer not to break the existing mac installation19:34
austrinusi figured the best way to do it was to boot the livestick via UEFI and install it the same way19:34
george4nrequiest , you can have an autologin through ssh, if you add your id_rsa.pub to the server, you wont need passwords19:34
austrinusside by side with the mac os19:34
artoisaustrinus: I'm not sure you'll need special steps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/MacOSX19:34
artoisnot sure why you need two OSes, either, though19:35
axisysBashing-om: so essentially replace all us.archive.ubuntu.com with us.old-releases.ubuntu.com ? it is lucid19:35

GallomimiarEFInd is a great boot loader19:36
austrinusGallomimia: i was going to use that19:37
austrinusthe main thing that is concerning me is which disk image to use19:37
austrinusbecause there is an ubuntu amd64 and amd64+mac19:37
austrinusand it seems like the amd64+mac one forces boot via BIOS19:37
austrinuswhich I wanted to avoid for fear of Ubuntu trying to install using BIOS instead of UEFI19:38
artoisaustrinus: no you don't, but even if you did, it works in a VM fine19:38
Delta706akik: thanks for the tip about "expect"19:38
artoismoreover, Microsoft has already moved to website-based office19:38
jdqxartois: my strategy is to update only to LTS versions after each version matures alittle.19:38
MonkeyDustjdqx  tight plan19:39
artoispointless plan19:39
artoisif it takes you 5 years to get around to updating, you're doing lots of things wrong19:39
Bashing-omaxisys: Yeah, you have the right of it .. make sure : 'sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade ' sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' so all is updated then ' sudo do-release-upgrade ' . I make it a practive to PPA purge all PPAs and disable any proprietary graphics drivers 1st .19:39
Delta706jdqx: how long do you wait? a few months?19:39
jdqxDelta706, a few months to a year. seems reasonable to me.19:40
MonkeyDusti too use lts only19:40

Bashing-omAvak: For the new driver to take effect. need to reboot . But we can look now to see if there is a conflict in drivers . Pastbin ' dpkg -l grep -i nvidia ' .20:28

Avaksomething to do with X-server...20:32

ruabisshi think it will work fine20:39
Bashing-omAvak2: Yeah, if there is a problem show us ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit ' .20:39
bekksBashing-om: just for my personal records - is there a difference to pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?20:39
LoshkiExagone313: I never found a working solution for audio. The closest I got was using rdesktop to access windows. I'm surprised no-one has hacked vnc for sound.20:40
Exagone313the main problem I think is pulseaudio: on x2go it uses it, but it seems to do not work with a windows client (didn't tried with linux, because I haven't this time)20:41
bekksLoshki: compared to RDP, VNC performs quite bad, even with all possible optimization. Putting sound on top of that would require a high-bandwidth communication to the remote.20:41

Bashing-ombekks: "  difference to pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?" I think not . I can be taught better .20:44

Bashing-omAvak2: Look'n at the log file .20:44

Chaser!9.10 | Zulu_Too22:42
ubottuZulu_Too: Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) was the eleventh release of Ubuntu. !End-Of-Life on April 29th 2011, see http://ubottu.com/y/karmic for details.22:42
Zulu_TooChaser is that the command?22:44
k1lZulu_Too: really ubuntu 9.10 ?22:44
ChaserZulu_Too: 9.10 is EOL'ed. Its too old.22:44
k1lZulu_Too: ubuntu 9.10 is from 2009. load a actual ubuntu iso like 14.04 or 15.1022:45
Zulu_TooI wasted time with it. It seemed very fast as a light weight system but I tried LXDE but that is not being supported and doing apt-get's is miserable.22:45
Zulu_TooI tried Ubuntu 15.10 and it was a pig on resources.22:46
k1lZulu_Too: you are doing it very wrong. ubuntu 9.10 is dead. dont use that anymore.22:46
nicomachusZulu_Too: if you need something lightweight, use lubuntu22:46
Zulu_TooIs Lubuntu the same kernel as 15.10? and are the apt-gets up to date with the repositories?22:47
k1lZulu_Too: you are mixing things22:48
k1lZulu_Too: we have different desktops like unity, xfce, kde and lxde. that makes it to ubuntu, Xubuntu, Kubuntu,Lubuntu22:48
k1lZulu_Too: then we have different version, like 14.04 or 15.10. but ubuntu14.04 and Xubuntu 1404 share the same kernel and packages. its just another arrangment of that packages.22:49
Zulu_TooLots of the distros look nice on paper but fall short of their expations. I am trying to set up a light weight GUI Apache 2 server without seeing that the repositories are not available and 3rd party people that are not proven downloads.22:49
k1lZulu_Too: if you want lightweight use Lubuntu. like Lubuntu 14.04 or Lubuntu 15.1022:49
* AndChat464025 we are you22:50
k1lZulu_Too: if you want a server, dont use a desktop at all. since the desktop will use ressources that are better used by the server22:50
Zulu_TooK11 will that work with older machines as well without the transit time lags?22:50
k1lZulu_Too: you cant run 9.10 that has not seen any security updates since 2010. so a 10year old can hack that system.22:51
Zulu_TooWhat if I just use in the StartX mode in command prompt would you still recommend Lubuntu?22:52
k1lZulu_Too: dont use startx on ubuntu22:52
Zulu_TooOh! back to square one. There are so many distros.22:52
k1lZulu_Too: but yes, lubuntu is made lightweight for slow and old hardware. but again: if you want to run a server, run a server.22:53
Zulu_TooI was thinking of FreeBSD.22:53
k1lwell, freebsd is not in the scope of this channel.22:53
Zulu_TooK11 so the lubuntu is a good thing but what about security? I really don't worry that much about security because Linux based systems are not that vulnerable to Windows systems.22:54
Zulu_TooI will give lubuntu a try. Nothing to lose. I have tons of computers here.22:55
k1lZulu_Too: that is wrong. we have enough hacked systems. and a lot of linux servers are among them and sending spam. the reason is users dont use secure methods or dont have set up the server properly22:55
RealKillazHi there ubuntu gents22:55
reese_hi22:56
k1lZulu_Too: lubuntu receives the same security patches as ubuntu does. but only if they still have support, which 9.10 doesnt: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/22:56
Zulu_TooK11 that is where a firewall comes in and iptables.22:56
k1lZulu_Too: doesnt help you22:57
Zulu_TooYou mentioned 14.04 and 15.10 is better then?22:58
RealKillazI have a problem with the installation of Ubuntu 14.04. Getting the following error: the ext4 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI (2,0,0) (sda) failed22:58
k1lZulu_Too: 14.04 or 15.10 is your only choice.22:58
RealKillazDuring installation...22:58
RealKillazWe've checked the DVD and everything looks just fine22:58
Zulu_TooOk thanks. I will experiment with them then. Lightweight is the way to go to give the CPU a break.22:58
RealKillazI've googled and al threads indicates issues with HD...22:59
nicomachusZulu_Too: this is a server, right? does it have a monitor or any sort of display at all?22:59
RealKillazcan we conclude that indeed... or are there other possibilities?22:59
nicomachusRealKillaz: you can do a smart check and verify that.22:59
QuantosSo check the HDD health with the utility from the HDD manufacturer RealKillaz22:59
Zulu_TooK11 about the repositories with the above any comments?22:59
k1lZulu_Too: you dont need a desktop on a server. you can manage the server with ssh.23:00
DirtyCajundude. i hate how textbooks.... spend 2 chapters explaining how thing a and thing b work... just to tell you in chapter 3 that they are crap and old and you ened to use thing c.

QuantosI'm going to step back RealKillaz, I don't think I can safely advise you on a running server23:05
Zulu_TooK11 I was concerned about the sudo apt-get distributions or repositories as well. Some of the stuff that is outdated should be taken off of the internet I suppose, but, who am I to say that.23:05
