[00:00] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: Ok, I will then try the two versions of 3.13.0-55-generic
[00:01] <inferno> k1l_: Rammina Remote Desktop Client?
[00:01] <k1l_> inferno: no no no no no
[00:02] <bocephus_> whats the available VM in the ubuntu software center...Not seeing it.  Wasent it OracleBox?
[00:02] <nicomachus> bocephus_: virtualbox by oracle
[00:03] <k1l_> inferno: click on the folder icon in the launcher bar. it should look like http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/new-nautilus-in-ubuntu.jpg
[00:03] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: When I did the regular version, it got me back into grub rescue again
[00:03] <bocephus_> ahhhh Im blind thanks nicomachus
[00:03] <bocephus_> nicomachus, your the man... or what ever you are.
[00:03] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: boot any kernel that will boot to a working system
[00:04] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: is this encrypted or lvm or such?
[00:04] <inferno> k1l_: alright
[00:04] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: only way so far is via live-cd
[00:04] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_:  its not encrypted
[00:05] <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_
[00:06] <inferno> k1l_: Yea sorry lol, I got it, I got to the connect server, so now just write the "ssh://user@serverip"?
[00:06] <bocephus_> got it will do.
[00:06] <k1l_> inferno: but set user and serverip to match your setup
[00:07] <inferno> k1l_: Alright Im in
[00:08] <inferno> I just see a bunch of PGP keys
[00:09] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: i got the computer booted again in live-cd mode
[00:09] <inferno> probably form when I tried to get webmin earlier
[00:10] <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_Doctor> k1l_: How to I chroot?
[00:11] <andres__> hola
[00:12] <k1l_> !chroot
[00:13] <k1l_> i cant find a good english chroot howto
[00:14] <inferno> shadaloo: 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 it
[00:14] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: I wish you had one as the page you linked is a bit too technical for me
[00:14] <shadaloo> inferno: sure sure
[00:15] <shadaloo> inferno: I game too
[00:15] <shadaloo> inferno: but when im down I switch back to linux for regular stuff ;)
[00:15] <inferno> shadaloo: Dual boot or somethin?
[00:15] <miner> I just installed xubuntu and now I can't install ssh-server. This is what I get when I run sudo apt-get install openssh-server Reading package lists...
[00:15] <miner> Building dependency tree...
[00:15] <miner> Reading state information...
[00:15] <miner> E: Unable to locate package openssh-sever
[00:15] <miner>  Any ideas?
[00:15] <shadaloo> inferno: I run linux off a sandisk extreme pro
[00:16] <shadaloo> couldn't be happier
[00:16] <shadaloo> 220mb/s write
[00:16] <k1l_> miner: "sudo apt update"
[00:16] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: see this answer http://askubuntu.com/a/28100/31260
[00:17] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: Thanks, give me a moment to try it
[00:17] <miner> I ran apt-get update and now I'm getting a lot of this -> Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com saucy/main Sources
[00:17] <miner>   404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.13 80]

[00:18] <miner> And 'failed to fetch' errors.
[00:18] <inferno> My OS is on an SSD too, Apotop, 300 write 500 read
[00:18] <k1l_> miner: scrap that install. load a actual ubuntu and isntall that
[00:18] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_Doctor: Full Vhange root: from the liveDVD 'sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt - for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done - sudo chroot /mnt ' You are now in the install as 'root' .. now try an run k1l_'s commands .
[00:18] <k1l_> miner: saucy is gone long time
[00:19] <miner> I just downloaded this ISO from the Ubuntu site a few weeks ago?
[00:19] <k1l_> miner: no
[00:19] <inferno> k1l_: So though the "Connect to server" I can only see files I have downloaded, how do I get to /var/www/
[00:19] <inferno> ?
[00:19] <k1l_> miner: it says saucy. that is not recent. that is old.
[00:20] <k1l_> inferno: click on the path at the top
[00:20] <miner> Thanks, I'll go take a second look.
[00:20] <k1l_> inferno: or press "alt +up"
[00:20] <inferno> k1l_: Ahhhh thank you sooo much!
[00:21] <inferno> k1l_: But now theres a matter of transferring fliles, how?
[00:21] <truexfan81> should i expect any issues with this sound card in ubuntu trusty? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829132052
[00:22] <inferno> k1l_: I mean to the VM, and then to the server
[00:24] <anabain> can 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?
[00:25] <Ben64> anabain: can you explain a bit more? i'm confused when you say "before it is shut down" and what you mean by local app
[00:25] <Jordan_U> anabain: I don't understand your question. What does "start a local app from a remote host" mean?
[00:26] <anabain> box 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 a
[00:27] <anabain> Ben64, Jordan_U ^
[00:27] <Jordan_U> anabain: Yes, that can be done. What is your end goal?
[00:28] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: In the tutorial, step 4, I was getting message saying bash: /mnt:: No such file or directory
[00:29] <k1l_> did you cops the : ?
[00:29] <CampSoup_Doctor> Bashing-om: When I tried that, I got bash: syntax error near unexpected token 'do'
[00:29] <anabain> it'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.
[00:30] <anabain> Jordan_U, my script kills client's dolphin instances and then *restarts new dolphin instances*, that's where my questions arises...
[00:31] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_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] <anabain> Jordan_U, so, what then?
[00:31] <Jordan_U> anabain: So the server being shut down is the NFS server which you have been asking about in previous questions here (IIRC), correct?
[00:32] <anabain> yes
[00:32] <anabain> I've managed to make it go_home dir through qdbus
[00:33] <Jordan_U> anabain: Is the server rebooting for updates or shutting down for some other reason?
[00:33] <anabain> Jordan_U, but it isn't enough: unless you kill dolphin processes, trouble is simply a matter of time.
[00:34] <drwxr-x---> dolphin killing is illegal
[00:34] <anabain> Jordan_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, :)
[00:35] <martin1989> hi people
[00:35] <martin1989> i have a question about compiz
[00:35] <martin1989> does someone use it?
[00:35] <anabain> drwxr-x---, don't worry, I'll manage, ;)
[00:36] <martin1989> i want to set the cube
[00:36] <martin1989> and other effects
[00:36] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey
[00:36] <martin1989> on ubuntu 14.04 mate
[00:36] <martin1989> hey
[00:36] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey
[00:36] <martin1989> i did everything
[00:36] <k1l_> martin1989: use ccsm to set the effects
[00:36] <martin1989> yes i did
[00:37] <martin1989> i set it all
[00:37] <fernando> hello
[00:37] <martin1989> following a tutorial that i found on the internet
[00:37] <martin1989> but it still doesnt work
[00:37] <fernando> whats going on here
[00:37] <martin1989> i dont get it
[00:37] <fernando> whats your problem?
[00:37] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey
[00:38] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey
[00:38] <xangua> martin1989: a tutorial you found on the internet...do you think it'd be worth mentioning exactly what you did?
[00:38] <TheEnderCreeper0> i need help
[00:38] <anabain> Jordan_U, any hints?
[00:38] <xangua> ! Ask
[00:38] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey
[00:38] <TheEnderCreeper0> i need help
[00:38] <TheEnderCreeper0> my sound
[00:38] <Jordan_U> martin1989: Ubuntu Mate doesn't use compiz by default, it uses Marco. So if you are still using Marco, then no changes to compiz's settings will matter.
[00:39] <TheEnderCreeper0> i cant hear sound from my raspberry pi 2 running ubuntu mate 1.8.2
[00:39] <adoniscik> I am having trouble upgrading my packages due to the following held back packages on 14.04.3: gcc-4.9-base gcc-4.9-base:i386 lib32gcc1 libgcc1 libgcc1:i386 can should i do?
[00:39] <TheEnderCreeper0> help
[00:40] <k1l_> TheEnderCreeper0: enough "help" now.
[00:40] <Jordan_U> anabain: 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] <TheEnderCreeper0> i cant hear any sound from my raspberry pi 2 running ubuntu mate 1.8,2
[00:40] <bob2017> it would be totally awesome if someone helped me figure out why my machine detects only two of three monitors, and displays video on none of them
[00:40] <martin1989> maybe it is not the default window manager on ubuntu 14.04
[00:41] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey
[00:41] <martin1989> and i have to change it so that it works
[00:41] <martin1989> right?
[00:41] <TheEnderCreeper0> can anyone help me
[00:41] <k1l_> TheEnderCreeper0: beeing annoying is not going to make people help you.
[00:41] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey anyone on
[00:41] <AceOfSpades> Hey people of the buntuverse
[00:41] <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 mouse
[00:42] <k1l_> martin1989: did you read what was suggested? use ccsm. or say what exactly doesnt work.
[00:42] <nicomachus> drwxr-x---: you can adjust that in your system settings --> Mouse & Touchpad
[00:42] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey
[00:42] <nicomachus> TheEnderCreeper0: just stop.
[00:42]  * AceOfSpades kill TheEnderCreeper0
[00:42] <Jordan_U> TheEnderCreeper0: 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.
[00:43] <TheEnderCreeper0> when can u help me'
[00:43] <TheEnderCreeper0> >
[00:43] <drwxr-x---> nicomachus: but i can't make it work like the default on ubuntu 14.04.. is there such file in which i can replicate the mouse config from 14.04 to 15.10?
[00:44] <Jordan_U> TheEnderCreeper0: Please join #ubuntu-ops if you wish to discuss your mute (you can no longer speak in this channel until you are unmuted).
[00:44]  * AceOfSpades kills TheEnderCreeper0 and throws him in a ditch
[00:44] <adoniscik> thanks, k1l_ i think that helped but i will have to investigate for a while
[00:44] <anabain> Jordan_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 packages
[00:45] <anabain> Jordan_U, the systemd part is already done, btw
[00:45] <anabain> Jordan_U, these parts work seamlessly.
[00:46] <inferno> k1l_: So I tried to edit the index.html file in /var/www/html/ but it says I dont have permission, anyway to fix it?
[00:46] <MoxOpal> Hey.
[00:46] <bob2017> hey
[00:46] <k1l_> inferno: put your user(on the server) into the www-data group
[00:47] <MoxOpal> I've been having a host of problems with my Linux distro, technical errors, etc.
[00:47] <MoxOpal> I'd like if someone could help me troubleshoot them
[00:48] <MoxOpal> I'll list them on a pastebin so I don't clog up the chat.
[00:50] <MoxOpal> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14562876/ My problems. I am running Lubuntu 14.04
[00:51] <MoxOpal> LTS
[00:51] <bob2017> still looking for help with my funky monitors
[00:52] <CampSoup_Patient> k1l_: Bashing-om: I got the following messages when I got to step 6 of the tutorial (Note: The beginings of the log got cut off due to the number lines: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14562860/
[00:53] <k1l_> CampSoup_Patient: "read only file system" that looks like the harddisk is failing
[00:53] <k1l_> CampSoup_Patient: what does "dmesg " tell?
[00:53] <RoadRunner> can anyone help me with CairoDock?
[00:54] <MoxOpal> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14562876/ My problems. I am running Lubuntu 14.04 And the following is my PC's make/model Acer 	Aspire ES1-512
[00:54] <MoxOpal> I would like if someone could help me :)
[00:54] <CampSoup_Patient> k1l_: Bashing-om: BTW: CampSoup_Patient is the same person as CampSoup_Doctor, just that 'Patient' is the computer I am trying to fix
[00:55] <CampSoup_Patient> how do i output log directly into pastebin again?
[00:56] <k1l_> CampSoup_Patient: "dmesg | pastebinit"
[00:56] <mcphail> drwxr-x---: I've found mouse sensitivity to be annoyingly high as well. If you install the "lxinput" package and adjust the mouse from there, it will persist across reboots
[00:56] <CampSoup_Patient> k1l_: The hard drive is only a year or two old and the BIOS had a hard drive test, which my drive had passed
[00:56] <Bashing-om> CampSoup_Patient: :)
[00:56] <promet> Does anyone use the Genymotion Android emulator in Ubuntu 15.10?
[00:57] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey'
[00:57] <TheEnderCreeper0> promet
[00:57] <promet> It works well but the sound is totally borked.
[00:57] <promet> TheEnderCreeper0, Heya
[00:57] <promet> I am wondering if there is someway to clean it up
[00:58] <k1l_> CampSoup_Patient: its hardware. it fails. if there was a rule/law when it is to fail everything would be a lot easier. ubuntu puts read-only mode when there are issues. and issues come from hardware issues
[00:58] <drwxr-x---> CampSoup_Patient: "your command" | pastebinit
[00:58] <promet> It uses Vboxheadless for umulation
[00:58] <promet> emulation that is... =D
[00:59] <drwxr-x---> CampSoup_Patient: assuming that you have pastebinit installed
[00:59] <CampSoup_Patient> drwxr-x---: Yeah, I had to install it
[01:00] <CampSoup_Patient> k1l_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14562956/
[01:01] <k1l_> CampSoup_Patient: well, that looks like issues with the disk, to mee
[01:02] <ssbbcc00> (14.04) I've downloaded nodejs from the Debian PPAs. When I type node --version I get v0.10.35. When I type nodejs --version I get v4.2.4. It's messing up my npm install commands because I get "wanted: {"node":">=0.10.40","npm":">=2.0.0"} (current: {"node":"0.10.35","npm":"1.4.28"})" warnings. Or does nodejs v4.x not have npm v2.x?
[01:02] <k1l_> CampSoup_Patient: what was the overall issue? maybe that was caused by the bad disk
[01:03] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: I booted the computer and got GRUB recovery with a message saying it cant read/write to 'hd0'
[01:04] <k1l_> yeah, that sounds like a bad disk
[01:04] <TheEnderCreeper0> i need help look matplayzmcpe@matplayzmcpe-desktop:~/android-sdk-linux/tools$ ./android
[01:04] <TheEnderCreeper0> SWT folder '/home/matplayzmcpe/android-sdk-linux/tools/lib/arm' does not exist.
[01:04] <TheEnderCreeper0> Please export ANDROID_SWT to point to the folder containing swt.jar for your platform.
[01:04] <TheEnderCreeper0> matplayzmcpe@matplayzmcpe-desktop:~/android-sdk-linux/tools$
[01:05] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: is the cabeling ok?
[01:05] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: from the research i initially did, it had sounded like that grub had gotten corrupted
[01:06] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: 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 computer
[01:09] <anabain> kll, what is the command or method that, from box B, allows me to run a process on box A bearing in mind that this command will be run on box B just before it is shut down *and* the process on box A must be kept running? (Assume that the ssh root connection is set up and that the systemd service is enabled; only the command part is needed, if it's possible to do it, of course)
[01:09] <inferno> k1l_: I did it! I am finally able to do what I wanted to do! All I need now is VrtualBox additions so I can drag and drop files between my OS and the VM
[01:10] <anabain> k1l_, btw, this command will be part of a shutdown script
[01:20] <inferno> k1l_: One last question, how do I copy the files from lets say desktop to the server? I tried cut and paste but it didint seem to save
[01:22] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey
[01:22] <RoadRunner> how to add new app icons to CairoDock's stack applet without orignal app icons being replaced by a generic system one (am using Xubuntu 14.04 with Cairo 3.3.2)?
[01:24] <TheEnderCreeper0> i need help with installing android studio on ubuntu mate,its telling me please export the android_swt file for your platform,but idk where to get the files at all.
[01:24] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: I just checked the cables and restarted, got a message under Ubuntu logo saying it deteced errors, press f to fix, s to skip, or m for manual recover, I chose F, and then got a message saying that it couldn't detect /temp, to wait, skip mount, or manual recover
[01:25] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: the computer restarted on the last screen while typing the previous message and it booted without the live-cd!!
[01:31] <TheEnderCreeper0> HEY
[01:33] <TheEnderCreeper0> I NEED HELP WITH ANDROID STUDIO ON UBUBNTU MATE,I NEED TO KNOW WHERE TO GET THE ANDROID_SWT FILES FROM.
[01:33] <somsip> TheEnderCreeper0: stop shouting. what tutorial are you following?
[01:33] <TheEnderCreeper0> LET ME GET A YOUTUBE URL READY
[01:34] <somsip> TheEnderCreeper0: stop shouting. :ast request.
[01:40] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: ok. now run the updates and make sure not to touch the cables again :)
[01:42] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: Ok, in the process of installing boot-info onto the actual computer (without the live-cd) so you could look it over to make sure everything is alright.  Should I do anything about all the kernals my computer seems to have collected?
[01:42] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: will go afk in short time.
[01:43] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: Ok
[01:43] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade"  then "sudo apt install linux-generic" that will make sure all latest kernels and updates are insatlled.
[01:44] <CampSoup_Doctor> k1l_: here is the boot-info: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14563421/
[01:44] <k1l_> CampSoup_Doctor: then do a "sudo apt-get autoremove"  if there are still old kernels in "dpkg -l | grep linux-image"  then remove that packages of that old versions with "sudo apt-get remove packagename"
[01:45] <k1l_> need to run now. bye
[01:45] <CampSoup_Doctor> ok
[01:45] <CampSoup_Doctor> Thanks for all of your help!
[01:52] <birarda> got a question about software RAID I’m hoping someone can help me with
[01:52] <birarda> I have 3 drives - 2x2TB and 1x4TB
[01:53] <inferno> k1l_: One last question, how do I copy the files from lets say desktop to the server? I tried cut and paste but it didint seem to save
[01:53] <birarda> I’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] <birarda> is it dangerous to have a drive that has two partitions, one used for raid and one not?
[01:54] <truexfan81> k1l_: i didn't even see the shouting lol i have scripts that auto convert it to lowercase :D
[02:04] <birarda> is it safe to use 1 partition of a drive for software raid 5 and another for regular storage?
[02:04] <j1nx_> anyone here ever setup pgp server on ubuntu?
[02:07] <sulfasal> trying to do $ chmod 700 .ssh but it stays 644
[02:08] <sulfasal> on 15.10
[02:09] <j1nx_> did you specify the directory?
[02:09] <sulfasal> it is a directory, do you mean ~/.ssh?
[02:10] <j1nx_> chmod -R 700 .ssh
[02:11] <sulfasal> what's the R mean
[02:11] <j1nx_> recursive
[02:11] <sulfasal> o right
[02:12] <j1nx_> run a ls -la after to make sure the permissions was set properly
[02:12] <sulfasal> thanks that does it; they should put that in the help.ubuntu.com where I found this
[02:13] <j1nx_> np
[02:13] <sulfasal> just says chmod no -R
[02:13] <j1nx_> you can always run man page
[02:13] <sulfasal> for chmod?
[02:13] <j1nx_> any command
[02:14] <sulfasal> Yeah, that's ok, but what if I don't know about -R beforehand?
[02:14] <j1nx_> man "command"
[02:14] <j1nx_> use google
[02:16] <SchrodingersScat> !man | sulfasal
[02:17] <gene_> Hi there.. just installed newest version of lubuntu.  I've installed squeezeplay and it needs libsvga1.  I tried 'apt-get install libsvga1' but it can't find the package... anyone know where I can get it?
[02:17] <sulfasal> lol, I've known about man pages since the jurassic era. But it's hard  when one does not know what one is searching for before searching for it ;)
[02:18] <artois> sulfasal: apropos/whatis can maybe help sometimes
[02:18] <craigbass76> I've got a rt18723be wifi card, and the google hits I see for sticking options rtl8723be fwlps=N ips=N in /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8723be.conf don't work.  When I modprobe -rv rt18723be I get Module rt18723be not found.
[02:18] <Bashing-om> !info libsvga1 wily
[02:18] <gene_> Right.. so where can I get it?
[02:19] <Bashing-om> !info libsvga1 trusty
[02:19] <bob2017> can people at least suggest what I should try to get the monitors working?
[02:19] <bob2017> tj- would know what to do :(
[02:21] <malibu> I'm hoping I don't have to go back to ubuntu 14.
[02:24] <bob2017> how about this:  in ubuntu 15, how do i disable a boot service like lightdm?
[02:25] <Asta666> Good evening. Somebody can help me testing tor chat?
[02:26] <malibu> Bashing-om: I'm not really sure what I was supposed to make of those two info lines..
[02:27] <test123> hi, how i check my current windows manager and desktop environment, using terminal
[02:27] <test123> thank you
[02:27] <Bashing-om> bob2017: " sudo systemctl stop lightdm.service " .
[02:28] <svetlana> test123, for DE, please, try «echo $DESKTOP_SESSION» and say whether its output is useful
[02:28] <Bashing-om> malibu: I was just checking if maybe the universe repo was a factor . not .. I have no solution to offer you . The package is not available in 15.10 .
[02:28] <test123> hi, svetlana. First tie
[02:29] <malibu> Bashing-om: Ok so I guess this means that the squeezeplay player is now obsolete in ubuntu 15?
[02:29] <test123> first time here, how i answer to you as twetter here, eg @svetalana
[02:29] <svetlana> test123: type s, v, tab and it'll complete my nickname (without the @ is fine)
[02:30] <nicomachus> test123: no need for @, you can just type the name. you can also just type the first couple letters then hit [TAB]
[02:30] <Bashing-om> test123: Both ' echo $DESKTOP_SESSION " " $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP ' .
[02:30] <bob2017> bashing-on - won’t it still try to start on the next boot?
[02:31] <Bashing-om> malibu: What response do you get feom the repo query ' apt-cache show <package_name> ' ?
[02:31] <malibu> I tried an apt-cache search... didn't find it
[02:32] <Bashing-om> bob2017: You want to boot to terminal rather than the GUI ?
[02:32] <bob2017> bashing - yes
[02:32] <bob2017> and the kernel command line isn’t working
[02:32] <malibu> I just downloaded the .deb manually and it seems to have installed after I did apt-get install libx86-1
[02:32] <malibu> going to see if the player starts up
[02:32] <test123> svetlana: nicomachus Bashing-om thank you
[02:33] <svetlana> you're welcome, test123; have you got the WM using the above or not yet?
[02:34] <Bashing-om> bob2017: Boot parameter " systemd.unit=multi-user.target " in the file '/etc/default/grub' .
[02:34] <test123> xfce, $DESKTOP_SESSION & XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP svetlana
[02:34] <bob2017> bashing-om i’m not using grub.
[02:34] <anabain> does 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_Industries> Hello! 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!
[02:35] <Bashing-om> bob2017: Not an ubuntu issue ? As grub is the bootloader for 'buntu .
[02:35] <malibu> Bashing-om: Strange.. so that worked.  Any idea why the library would have been left out of the repository for wily?
[02:35] <bob2017> bashing-om grub is not the only way to load ubuntu.
[02:36] <svetlana> test123: excellent :) welcome to freenode and the ubuntu channel and stuff, too
[02:36] <Bashing-om> bob2017: Truem there are many bootloaders around . None other for buntu that I have used .
[02:36] <svetlana> test123: (you're welcome to stay here to help others, to come and go when you like, and to explore other channels)
[02:37] <bob2017> bashing-om so you don’t know the answer. that’s ok.
[02:37] <test123> svetlana: 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 volumen
[02:38] <test123> svetlana: with my function keys
[02:38] <svetlana> test123, oh I see. you can't control the volume with your function keys. these are keys on the keyboard, right?
[02:38] <Bashing-om> bob2017: Told you the answer. just adapt that boot parameter to the bootloader you are using ... the systemd command is universal .
[02:38] <test123> svetlana: yes
[02:39] <test123> svetlana: i read about xbindkeys, but i want a workaround with my systm
[02:39] <malibu> Bashing-om: I installed the .deb from http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/s/svgalib/  so the package still works
[02:40] <llldino> msg EriC^^ Hey are you at your keyboard?
[02:40] <test123> svetlana: not a script
[02:40] <EriC^^> llldino: hey
[02:40] <svetlana> test123, okay, see if this works: « go to Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts and add three shortcuts for your function keys. The commands should be: «amixer set Master 5%+ »,  « amixer set Master 5%- »,    «amixer set Master toggle» .» https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=513131#p513131
[02:40] <bob2017> is there no ubuntu 15 equivalent of the old pattern to add or remove a daemon from a runlevel?
[02:40] <llldino> EriC^^, Hey, so I was able to boot my live cd into UEFI mode, how again do I make it so grub will install UEFI mode?
[02:41] <EriC^^> add /boot/efi to /etc/fstab
[02:41] <test123> svetlana: thank you for your help.  Currently im working with a lxde session and i cant find the keyboard shortcuts
[02:42] <test123> svetlana: but my DESKTOP_SESSION print xfce, but the icons a desktop is xlde
[02:43] <llldino> I don't want to put grub on the windows efi partition if I can avoid it, i'd just like to make the disk I have now uefi bootable if that's possible
[02:43] <llldino> If that doesn't work, then I can put grub on the windows boot part.
[02:43] <svetlana> test123, upload a screenshot to www.imgur.com and maybe someone here can tell you what DE you are using -- that's odd
[02:44] <Bashing-om> malibu: :) .. 'buntu ! where there is a will there is a way ... good job !
[02:45] <malibu> Bashing-om: Yeah but what I'm trying to say is that it seems to be an oversight that this library was omitted
[02:45] <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 disk
[02:45] <llldino> Alright
[02:46] <Bashing-om> malibu: No idea how to bring that to the atttention of the MOTU .
[02:47] <svetlana> test123, then the key bindings are up to the window manager, what window manager are you using right now please? lxde doesn't provide one
[02:47] <llldino> EriC^^, Okay done, Windows efi fat is mounted on /boot/efi
[02:47] <Bashing-om> malibu: ^ A thought, maybe file a bug report against the package ?
[02:47] <EriC^^> llldino: wait a sec
[02:47] <EriC^^> llldino: are you in the live usb?
[02:47] <malibu> Bashing-om: Ok i'll look into it thanks
[02:47] <llldino> EriC^^, Not yet
[02:48] <merthushala> hey
[02:48] <EriC^^> oh ok, boot into it
[02:48] <merthushala> some body help me facebook chat on ubuntu gnome 15.10
[02:48] <merthushala> :(
[02:48] <llldino> EriC^^,  I can't access irc because irssi doesnt support scrolling and dummy mode doesn't work
[02:48] <malibu> Bashing-om: I love lochitech media player.  Not sure what I would do if it were suddenly obsolete.  Don't think there is anything else like it out there.
[02:48] <llldino> So when I get in there, what should I run?
[02:49] <EriC^^> llldino: you don't have a gui?
[02:50] <llldino> llldino, No, I use the debian installer, not a live cd
[02:51] <llldino> Ah, just give me a sec i'll get another computer
[02:51] <test123> svetlana: if i logout, how i find you again?
[02:52] <svetlana> test123, you can come back to this chat and i'll still be here
[02:52] <svetlana> test123, i might be away from keyboard intermittently so please don't hesitate to also ask others :)
[02:55] <test123> svetlana: im working with tmux. Inside tmux (terminal) the echo $DESKTOP_SESSION print xfce, "outside" tmux, prints lubuntu
[02:56] <test123> im my current desktop environtment is lxde svetlana
[02:56] <llldinot> EriC^^: Okay gold, i'm booting into uefi on my installer now
[02:56] <test123> so, in the lxde menu, i cant see the shortcut keyboard option
[02:57] <EriC^^> llldinot: ok
[02:58] <kinker31> Heya. I'm still trying to find a way to get Windows 10 booting. Grub2 just boots back to the grub menu when I select Windows 10, and booting it in edit mode gives me an unkown error.
[02:58] <EriC^^> kinker31: did you disable secureboot?
[02:58]  * holdr slaps EriC^^ around a bit with a large trout
[02:59] <svetlana> test123, ah tmux did something weird then, you're in lubuntu, what about xde var you also have?
[02:59] <svetlana> test123, $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP outside of tmux
[02:59]  * EriC^^ slaps holdr with a whale
[02:59] <kinker31> Yes, I disabled secureboot.
[02:59] <test123> svetlana: LXDE
[03:00] <llldinot> EriC^^: Okay got a shell, already ran mount -a
[03:00] <test123> svetlana: current session: lubuntu, current desktop: lxde (outside tmux).
[03:00] <svetlana> o_O okay, i would suggest to ask #lxde how to set keyboard shortcuts since the web says that lxde is not a window manager. or does «ps aux|grep wm» or «ps aux|grep openbox» return anything?
[03:01] <jpl> .l.
[03:01] <EriC^^> llldinot: you're in the live session's live usb right?
[03:01] <jpl> hi
[03:01] <EriC^^> i mean you didn't chroot yet right?
[03:01] <llldinot> EriC^^: No I did chroot i'll get out
[03:02] <EriC^^> did you mount bind the virtual filesystems?
[03:03] <llldinot> EriC^^: Err I had / in its own shell and I had windows fat mounted via that. Do you want me to mount root in the installer enviorment? Aren't they both the same?
[03:03] <EriC^^> no it's different
[03:04] <EriC^^> llldinot: do you have an internet connection on the live usb?
[03:04] <llldinot> EriC^^: Yes
[03:04] <EriC^^> ok, type mount | nc termbin.com 9999
[03:05] <test123> svetlana: boths commands return: xfwm4 and openbox
[03:05] <svetlana> great, openbox is your wm; please hold on test123 :)
[03:05] <llldinot> EriC^^: http://termbin.com/mwp7
[03:06] <EriC^^> llldinot: ok type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999
[03:06] <test123> svetlana: i have to sessions, one tieh xfce and other with lxde.  I have a mix :(
[03:07] <svetlana> test123, ps aux|grep alsa
[03:08] <llldinot> EriC^^: http://termbin.com/xx8x
[03:08]  * Dakotah_ starts party
[03:08] <test123> svetlana: grep --color=auto alsa
[03:08]  * Dakotah_ says hi to everyone joining
[03:08] <svetlana> test123, ps aux|grep pulse
[03:09] <EriC^^> llldinot: ok, type sudo umount /dev/sdb2
[03:09] <EriC^^> llldinot: then sudo umount /dev/sdc1
[03:09] <test123> /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
[03:10] <EriC^^> llldinot: then sudo umount /dev/sda1
[03:10] <test123> /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog svetlana
[03:10] <llldinot> EriC^^: Done
[03:10] <EriC^^> llldinot: ok, mount | nc termbin.com 9999 again
[03:10] <test123> svetlana: grep --color=auto pulse
[03:11] <llldinot> EriC^^: i8cp
[03:11] <svetlana> test123, ok, put 'ps aux' to a pastebin please... I am trying to figure out what program you're using for the sound
[03:12] <test123> svetlana: alsamixer i think
[03:12] <svetlana> test123, ok, put this block of text http://paste.ubuntu.com/14564187/ into this file ~/.config/openbox/rc.xml
[03:12] <EriC^^> llldinot: ok, so the xfs 20gb is the rootfs ?
[03:12] <llldinot> No, the ext4 ~200 GB is root
[03:13] <llldinot> sda1
[03:13] <EriC^^> ok, 1000gb is /home?
[03:13] <svetlana> test123, then relogin and test again
[03:13] <llldinot> No, thats just a ext4 fs mounted under /mount for all my media crap
[03:13] <llldinot> everything is under / which is /dev/sda1
[03:13] <EriC^^> oh ok, what's the 20gb xfs?
[03:14] <llldinot> Its just a cent OS build I was playing with
[03:14] <EriC^^> oh ok
[03:14] <EriC^^> type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[03:14] <llldinot> k
[03:14] <llldinot> Now do the binds?
[03:15] <kbdusr911> are there special characters in http that can redirect to another url from within the url? http://youtube.com(specialchacters)http://newurl.com
[03:15] <EriC^^> type for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[03:16] <kinker31> Did I miss anything?
[03:16] <EriC^^> kbdusr911: i think that depends if you have php and the include url ( which is really not recommended ) look into remove file inclusion vulnerabilities
[03:16] <EriC^^> *remote
[03:16] <llldinot> EriC^^: Hmm my mount doesn't have the -B option I have to type --bind
[03:16] <llldinot> Sucsessful nonetheless
[03:17] <sam_yan> HI! Is cinnamon-session or gnome-session started by mdm,lightdm  or X11?
[03:17] <EriC^^> ok
[03:17] <EriC^^> llldinot: type sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/boot/efi
[03:17] <llldinot> EriC^^: Okay, but now I was in the situation I was in before when I dropped a shell under /dev/sda1 and ran mount -a S:
[03:18] <EriC^^> sam_yan: lightdm starts it using x11
[03:18] <test123> svetlana: i already have the rc.xml.  I have to append the paste that you send?, there no keybind in the file, just mousebinds
[03:19] <EriC^^> llldinot: well, i thought sda1 wasn't "/"
[03:19] <sam_yan> Eric^^:use  upstart --user ?
[03:19] <llldinot> EriC^^: Right, my bad
[03:20] <EriC^^> llldinot: ok, type sudo chroot /mnt
[03:20] <llldinot> Kk
[03:21] <llldinot> EriC^^: Ready
[03:21] <EriC^^> llldinot: ok, type apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64-signed
[03:23] <llldinot> EriC^^: Done
[03:23] <EriC^^> llldinot: type efibootmgr -v | nc termbin.com 9999
[03:24] <llldinot> paste.debian.net/366384/
[03:25] <EriC^^> llldinot: the entry doesn't seem to be there
[03:25] <EriC^^> llldinot: type dpkg -l | grep grub | nc termbin.com 9999
[03:25] <llldinot> EriC^^: Its line 9 isn't it?
[03:25] <EriC^^> llldinot: no that's a standard entry
[03:26] <EriC^^> it should add an ubuntu one with shimx46.efi and put it first in the order
[03:26] <llldinot> paste.debian.net/366385/
[03:26] <bob2017> any suggestions on ubuntu only recognizing two out of three monitors and not turning on video?
[03:27] <EriC^^> llldinot: grub package seems to be installed correctly
[03:27] <EriC^^> llldinot: try find /boot/efi -iname "*.efi"
[03:27] <EriC^^> is there a grubx64.efi or shimx64.efi ?
[03:27] <cluelessperson> Question, how do I uninstall some of the bloat programs that came with ubuntu?
[03:28] <cluelessperson> I can't seem to find where a package manager shows htem?
[03:29] <llldinot> EriC^^: Nothing from debian, everything is under /Microsoft and one under /Boot
[03:31] <EriC^^> llldinot: try grub-install --efi-directory=/boot/efi
[03:34] <llldinot> EriC^^: That worked
[03:34] <EriC^^> llldinot: ok, try efibootmgr -v | nc termbin.com 9999
[03:35] <llldinot> Maybe because my path is /boot/efi/EFI/foobar and it's expecting /boot/EFI/foobar ?
[03:35] <EriC^^> no, it should expect /boot/efi/EFI/..
[03:35] <llldinot> EriC^^: http://paste.debian.net/366387/
[03:36] <EriC^^> ok, the entry is there now
[03:36] <EriC^^> type exit
[03:36] <EriC^^> then try restarting
[03:36] <llldinot> Okay
[03:37] <llldinot> Yeah bby
[03:38] <llldinot> EriC^^: How do I confirm it booted in EFI again?
[03:39] <test123> svetlana: hi, i did what you said.  Is not working yet
[03:40] <bob2017> help my machine only recognizes two of my three monitors and doesn’t show video on any of them
[03:42] <kinker31> bob2017: Wow, 3 monitors? Impressive. I only have 1 right now.
[03:42] <bob2017> kinker31 - yeah they’re really sexy too.  especially when they’re not blank
[03:42] <Dylan____> How come i cant blank my dvd-rw?
[03:42] <Dylan____> I got a error in braseo
[03:43] <EriC^^> llldinot: ls -l /sys/firmware/efi
[03:43] <sachinaddy> Can anyone tell me the stable release of red5 for ubuntu?
[03:43] <llldino> EriC^^, Yes, efivars is now there
[03:44] <EriC^^> ok, your uefi doesn't have a problem booting linux files, that's great
[03:44] <EriC^^> llldino: now, type sudo fdisk /dev/sda
[03:45] <llldino> EriC^^, Great, no now I imagine I just repeat the steps without mounting /dev/sdb2 on /boot/efi right?
[03:45] <EriC^^> llldino: no, you need to create an efi partition on /dev/sda first
[03:45] <EriC^^> and use that instead
[03:45] <llldino> Ahh okay, what size?
[03:45] <EriC^^> 300mb
[03:45] <EriC^^> fat32, in gdisk the hexcode is ef00, in fdisk i think it's different
[03:46] <EriC^^> you can use smaller than 300mb if you want
[03:46] <llldino> EriC^^, I hate fdisk, Gparted is the only admin tool with a gui I use anymore
[03:46] <llldino> Is it fine I have a msdos table or should I change that as well?
[03:46] <EriC^^> llldino: use cfdisk , it's nice
[03:46] <EriC^^> well, i think msdos will work, i'm not entirely sure
[03:47] <EriC^^> if it doesn't you can convert easily and it's quick
[03:47] <llldino> EriC^^, I ought to change it but if I can put it off till later I will
[03:47] <EriC^^> yeah
[03:50] <llldinot> EriC^^: Gotta get back to the live cd, give me a sec
[03:51] <llldinot> EriC^^: 300 mb, vfat, efi flag right?
[03:51] <EriC^^> llldinot: you can do it from the current install
[03:51] <EriC^^> sudo swapoff -a
[03:52] <llldinot> EriC^^: Damn good point, too late
[03:54] <cluelessperson> ?
[03:57] <llldinot> EriC^^: Everytime I add or remove a partition my swap uuid changes S:
[03:57] <llldinot> EriC^^: And then systemd freaks out and I have to wait for a 2 min boot
[03:57] <EriC^^> llldinot: yeah
[03:57] <EriC^^> you need to comment it out in /etc/fstab
[03:58] <llldinot> EriC^^: No swap at all?
[03:58] <llldinot> EriC^^: Or just before I boot?
[03:59] <EriC^^> llldinot: just before booting
[03:59] <EriC^^> did you remove the swap and create the efi partition?
[03:59] <llldino> EriC^^, Alright, I got the 300 M fat32 partition, am I going to move all of /boot over and set the esp and boot flags?
[04:00] <EriC^^> no
[04:00] <EriC^^> ok, create a swap partition with the rest of the space
[04:00] <EriC^^> and then sudo mkswap /dev/sdaY
[04:00] <llldino> Rest of what space?
[04:00] <llldino> I already have a 20 GiB swap partition
[04:00] <EriC^^> llldino: how'd you create the efi partition?
[04:01] <llldino> Made a 300 MiB Fat 32 partition
[04:01] <EriC^^> didn't you delete it to create the efi one?
[04:01] <llldino> I shrunk my root down
[04:01] <EriC^^> ok
[04:02] <EriC^^> what did you mean about the swap partition changing earlier?
[04:03] <llldino> Ah nevermind, I shrunk my swap down and that's what changed the part number, it's all good now
[04:03] <EriC^^> ok, put the new uuid in /etc/fstab for both the swap and the new efi partition
[04:04] <llldino> Mount it on /boot/efi again?
[04:04] <EriC^^> yeah
[04:04] <llldino> And I remove the windows efi entry in fstab?
[04:04] <EriC^^> yeah just put the new uuid there for the new efi
[04:05] <EriC^^> instead of the windows one
[04:05] <llldino> EriC^^, Okay done, what flags do I need on the linux efi partition?
[04:06] <EriC^^> llldino: type sudo cfdisk /dev/sda
[04:07] <EriC^^> and change the type to EF
[04:09] <llldino> EriC^^, cfdisk is much nicer, done
[04:10] <EriC^^> llldino: ok, are you in the live usb right now?
[04:10] <llldino> No i'm not
[04:12] <maximus> hi
[04:12] <maximus> first time on IRC
[04:12] <AceOfSpades> hi evebody
[04:12] <maximus> very popular iC
[04:12] <AceOfSpades> hi maximus

[04:13] <EriC^^> llldino: ok, try sudo grub-install --efi-directory=/boot/efi
[04:13] <EriC^^> then sudo update-grub
[04:14] <llldino> Okay reboot?
[04:14] <EriC^^> not yet
[04:14] <EriC^^> type sudo efibootmgr -v | nc termbin.com 9999
[04:15] <EriC^^> we'll delete the old entry
[04:15] <llldino> http://paste.debian.net/366388/
[04:19] <EriC^^> llldino: looks good
[04:19] <EriC^^> looks like it overwrote the old one
[04:20] <llldino> Cool!
[04:20] <EriC^^> try rebooting
[04:20] <llldino> Okay
[04:22] <llldino> Excellent, everything looks good
[04:23] <EriC^^> llldino: great
[04:24] <llldinot> Aw ye and now windows goes onto my grub menu
[04:24] <llldinot> Except windows didn't like that
[04:25] <llldinot> Ah we're good now, excellent
[04:26] <llldino> EriC^^, Thanks a bunch for your help man, really appreciate it
[04:28] <EriC^^> llldino: no problem
[04:29] <lerner> how do I edit a directory so my regular user gets to edit files there?
[04:30] <llldino> lerner, sudo chmod o+w /path/to/foobar let's any user on your system write to that dir
[04:39] <FXpr0> "if UbStu works for you, that's fine. stay with it. UbuntuStudio is basically just Ubuntu with extra packages. AVLinux and KXStudio go to great length to also tweak the system default config, provide rt-kernel and many related tweaks relevant for reliable realtime audio (64studio did the same back in the day). This can make a huge difference for e.g low latency with USB soundcards or when performing live on stage (no automatic disk
[04:39] <FXpr0> indexing in the middle of the concert etc etc)."
[04:39] <FXpr0> is that true?
[04:41] <lerner> sudo chmod a=rwx /dev/sdb1 <<< and that one?
[04:42] <naresh-nk> Hi i am getting this error some time on in my application but some time its gone http://imgur.com/a/K9yuO  Some working smooth
[04:43] <llldino> !php
[04:43] <llldino> Also check #php
[04:50] <spupuser> FXpr0, why would someone bring linux to a concert
[04:50] <spupuser> lol
[04:51] <FXpr0> ummm, to record it for youtube?
[04:52] <FXpr0> as long as you have access to the mixing board, I think its a lot better than a smart phone.

[05:10] <OmikeO> hello all
[05:10] <OmikeO> I was wondering how to tell a process is hanging in ubuntu?
[05:11] <OmikeO> like when nothing is responding and I either bring up the system monitor or htop in the termianl, what should I look for
[05:12] <EmeraldExplorer> Any recommended Ubuntu terminal ftp clients? Rn I am using ncftp but it freezes when I do ls in directories with many files.
[05:13] <technoweenie> i am using a live os of ubuntu 15. from the iso disk. i am having a resolution issue with my display. The icons are partially visable on the left and the "task bar at the top of the screen is completely off the screen.
[05:15] <technoweenie> ftp? why are you using ftp?
[05:18] <sirairwalker> ./hello my excellent friends
[05:19] <bob2017> k1rk?
[05:22] <test123> svetlana: Hi, it finally works.  I read the Lxde wiki and paste the config at lubuntu-rc.xml
[05:23] <EmeraldExplorer> technoweenie:  to upload backup cause I get 500GB free w/ ovh
[05:23] <test123> svetlana: i have to files in ../openbox folder
[05:23] <test123> svetlana: two files
[05:23] <svetlana> okay
[05:23] <test123> svetlana: i already have to change my default alsa controler using de -c option
[05:23] <test123> svetlana: thank you so much!
[05:24] <svetlana> do you have to do it by hand each time you reboot, or does it remember your preference?
[05:24] <test123> svetlana: http://wiki.lxde.org/en/LXDE:Questions#How_do_I_make_my_special_keyboard_buttons_.28mute.2C_volume.2C_screen_brightness_....29_work.3F just in case!!
[05:24] <svante> .
[05:25] <svetlana> okay, that sounds good. I think that was the same thing I was suggesting, right? it also has the controller thingy (because you're running pulseaudio, but amixer controls it).
[05:25] <imanner_> ~~
[05:25] <bob2017> tj been on in an while?
[05:25] <test123> svetlana: i have to openbox --reconfigure
[05:25] <lerner> what do I have to write after chmod to see who own a directory?
[05:25] <svetlana> congratulations test123 btw, it sounds great and your approach was thorough
[05:26] <test123> svetlana: sorry my english :)
[05:26] <svetlana> lerner, ls -lad /path/to/dir
[05:26] <svetlana> test123, it's okay I am a foreigner too
[05:27] <lerner> svetlana, chown: invalid option -- 'l'
[05:27] <imanner_> O(∩_∩)O~
[05:27] <bob2017> ubuntu is only recognizing two of my three monitors, and producing no video.  or more accurately its recognizing one monitor twice.  can anyone help?
[05:27] <svetlana> lerner, oh you do not use 'chown' to check. the command I gave is a separate command.
[05:28] <svetlana> test123, I think this should work after reboot too. if you like you can use program called 'kodi' to catalogue your music and videos.
[05:28] <test123> svetlana: in irc, is possible to add friends :) ?
[05:28] <svetlana> test123, maybe it is. what IRC client are you using?
[05:28] <test123> svetlana: irssi
[05:29] <svetlana> okay, I'll check
[05:29] <lerner> thx svetlana
[05:29] <test123> svetlana: ill check kodi
[05:30] <svetlana> test123, see '/help notify' for friends list in irssi, and please see site http://kodi.tv for more details about kodi (although it is rather intuitive and installing it from the Ubuntu repository just works too).
[05:30] <technoweenie> Can anyone tell me how to correct a display resolution issue? I am using ubuntu 15.10 and am using an hdmi emerson tv for my monitor. Sound works just fine, but my screen is cut off around the edges.
[05:33] <technoweenie> my second monitor doesn't seem to have the issue.
[05:33] <technoweenie> would love to use my tv monitor though.
[05:34] <hrobjartur> hi all
[05:34] <alephOne^> hi al
[05:34] <alephOne^> all
[05:35] <technoweenie> hello hrobjartur!
[05:35] <hrobjartur> Ok so in the ubuntu config panel there is a trademark name "Wacom"
[05:35] <hrobjartur> instead of saying "pen device/touch device" config it says "wacom" config
[05:36] <lerner> can I rename an encrypted hdd? its name is the one from factory and is not easy to discern
[05:36] <hrobjartur> does anyone know the motivation for Ubuntu ignoring other usb input devices "ISO" compliant devices?
[05:36] <gagalicious> kickstart configurator
[05:36] <hrobjartur> I noticed there is clearly a logic in the "Wacom" config on ubuntu that intentionally rejects orther USB compliant pen devices
[05:37] <gagalicious> 1234:tcp,3306:tcp,12345:tcp <-- is this correct? separated by comma or by white space?
[05:37] <hrobjartur> besides being probably a first linux distro to have a proprietary trademark as a configuration tool
[05:38] <hrobjartur> is Wacom the company developing the config menu?   could that be it?    if so, they have maliciously rejected other usb pen devices
[05:39] <imanner__> O(∩_∩)O~
[05:39] <bob2017> svetlana: don’t you want to help me with my monitors?
[05:41] <svetlana> bob2017, 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.
[05:42] <bob2017> svetlana:  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.
[05:43] <svetlana> bob2017, systemctl disable lightdm
[05:43] <bob2017> ok… any ideas for getting the monitors recognized?
[05:44] <test123> svetlana: i just installed.  But i cant find the quicklaunch icon
[05:44] <lerner> how do I rename an external hdd?
[05:45] <svetlana> bob2017, interesting. how did you create xorg.conf? it usually is absent.
[05:45] <svetlana> test123, it's peculiar. try to create the icon by hand and see if that works.
[05:46] <bob2017> svetlana:  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 time
[05:47] <bob2017> svetlana:  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 configuraiton
[05:47] <bob2017> svetlana: so i tried to make one by hand
[05:47] <svetlana> okay. you made it work by hand, but you can't get xrandr to understand the fact. would you pastebin your config, please?
[05:47] <bob2017> svetlana: well but xrandr was doing the same thing without the xorg.conf
[05:47] <bob2017> but i can pastebin that, and i have like 4 sets of logs from boots in different configurations, so whatever you’d like :p
[05:47] <test123> svetlana: in terminal, kodi dont work
[05:48] <svetlana> bob2017, 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] <bob2017> svetlana:  here - http://paste.ubuntu.com/14565379/
[05:49] <bob2017> svetlana:  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 properly
[05:51] <bob2017> svetlana:  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 seems
[05:52] <alephOne^> ##ubuntu is interested in supporting AmigaOS?
[05:52] <test123> svetlana: hi, kodi is like popcorn times, netflix, etc?
[05:55] <lerner> sudo e2label < works with a path, like /media/me/2 < right?
[06:04] <bob2017> svetlana - are you still there?

[06:06] <alephOne^> ok let me rephrase the question
[06:06] <bob2017> I actually had one of the original Amigas in 1985.  true story.
[06:06] <bob2017> tl;dr - it wasn’t very good
[06:06] <test123> svetlana: wow, thank you.  A good source to setup kodi?
[06:09] <coventry> Was helping a friend with his ubuntu server.  After an "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade", the login MOTD was reporting that there were 129 packages to upgrade.  I finally hit it with  '/usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check --package-names | xargs apt-get dist-upgrade -y', and it DID upgrade a bunch more packages.  But the MOTD still reported 129 packages to upgrade.  Anyone have an idea what could be going on?
[06:10] <cluelessperson> coventry, pretty sure dist-upgrade is distribution, not packages
[06:10] <cluelessperson> coventry,   apt-get update ?
[06:10] <cluelessperson> er..

[06:36] <EmeraldExplorer> Anyone know a good way to see if a ftp server has all files from the server?
[06:36] <Ben64> ftp server has all files from what server?
[06:49] <oem> i forgot my admin password
[06:50] <Kartagis> oem: boot off a LiveCD, and reset it
[06:51] <oem> i dont have a live cd
[06:51] <Kartagis> LiveUSB?
[06:51] <oem> just an empty normal usb
[06:51] <amigaguru> oem: download it from the internet?
[06:52] <EmeraldExplorer> Ben64: no all files from directory
[06:52] <amigaguru> oem: download a liveCD ISO image from the internet?
[06:53] <oem> and then?
[06:53] <amigaguru> then burn it on a CDR
[06:53] <oem> i only have a usb flash drive 15GB
[06:54] <amigaguru> you dont have a CDROM on your server?
[06:55] <oem> what server?
[06:55] <oem> Im i connected to one?
[06:55] <amigaguru> let me rephrase the question
[06:56] <amigaguru> can you read a CD on your computer?
[06:56] <oem> yes i can but i havent put any cd yet
[06:56] <amigaguru> ok
[06:57] <amigaguru> do you have access to another computer?
[06:57] <oem> yes
[06:58] <oem> ???????
[06:58] <amigaguru> then use that computer, download the LiveCD ISO image, burn it on that other computer, use the LiveCD in the computer where you lost your admin password, voila problem solved
[06:59] <oem> burn it to the other computer? or a cd?
[06:59] <amigaguru> both
[07:00] <oem> what if i use a flash instead of a cd,coz right now i dont have any cd
[07:00] <oem> and i tried that but it didnt work
[07:00] <amigaguru> then you wait for the CD shop to open :)
[07:01] <amigaguru> it works alrite

[07:07] <TAFB> can anyone help me get vsftpd working in ubuntu 15.04? I install it but it doesn't create an /etc/vsftpd.conf file and when I try and connect to port 21 it says error 500: connection refused
[07:08] <TAFB> sorry, the exact error is: 500 OOPS: could not bind listening IPv4 socket
[07:08] <somsip> TAFB: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/185190/installing-vsftpd-500-oops-could-not-bind-listening-ipv4-socket
[07:09] <Flannel> TAFB: You have no /etc/vsftpd.conf?
[07:09] <TAFB> nope, it doesn't exist :(
[07:09] <Flannel> TAFB: Is this the first time you're trying to install vsftpd?
[07:09] <TAFB> yep! fresh seedbox
[07:10] <Flannel> TAFB: 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] <TAFB> i just tried "sudo apt-get install --reinstall vsftpd" and it completed, but no /etc/vsftpd.conf gile :(
[07:11] <TAFB> ok, I'll try that!
[07:11] <TAFB> ok, did that, dpkg -l | grep vsftpd shows nothing.
[07:12] <Flannel> TAFB: Alright, good.  Now, install vsftpd again (sudo apt-get install vsftpd), and then check if /etc/vsftpd.conf exists
[07:12] <amigaguru> could this be a firewall problem I wonder
[07:12] <TAFB> OMG it's there!
[07:12] <TAFB> that's crazy :)
[07:13] <amigaguru> :)
[07:13] <Flannel> TAFB: Apparently a "fresh seedbox" isn't quite so "fresh".
[07:13] <TAFB> haha. Now I have to turn on listen or something... I'll follow the rest of the steps and see how it goes :)
[07:13] <Flannel> TAFB: Now, one question.  What are you using ftp for on this box?
[07:14] <TAFB> for bitkenic multiple ftp download streams, sftp says it doesn't support the correct encryption type :(
[07:14] <Flannel> TAFB: Alright.  I have no idea what half those words mean, but I'm glad your default was "use sftp/sshd" and this is a secondary.
[07:15] <TAFB> BitKinex is a ftp download program for windows, multi-part, so you can max out your ISP even if they throttle :)
[07:25] <TAFB> Flannel: Working flawless now, thanks so much!
[07:26] <Flannel> TAFB: 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)
[07:27] <TAFB> what's the difference between "apt-get remove" and apt-get purge??
[07:27] <TAFB> I was always doing remove, didn't fix nothin
[07:28] <Flannel> TAFB: Remove will keep the config files (and won't reinstall them the next time you install the package).  Purge removes "everything"
[07:28] <TAFB> ahhh, good to know!
[07:29] <TAFB> I also had to set seccomp_sandbox=no but that was already in the seedbox instructions
[07:29] <Flannel> TAFB: "wont reinstall" means your changes are safe, even if those changes are "totally break" the config or "remove [it] completely"

[08:56] <pagios> hi all, i have a client that connects to an access point and gets dynamic ips, i dont have access to the access point to check the ip the client is getting but i would like to connect to this client (i am running linux, client is running linux)  everytime it is only, is there some service like netbios that i can use to query by fqdn or something?
[08:59] <MichaelTunnell> !bot

[09:03] <JinBaba> Is there any utility that could continuously record all DNS queries being made from my system?
[09:04] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: made *from*, as in everything that's sending a DNS query?
[09:04] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: there's a couple of ways to do it; you could specify your own DNS server and log everything from a given host
[09:04] <JinBaba> yes
[09:04] <gordonjcp> or you could just run tcpdump on the host with a suitable filter string
[09:05] <JinBaba> all dns resolve requests being made to the dns server by my pc
[09:05] <gordonjcp> if you say "tcpdump port dns -w <somefile.pcap>" it will capture all packets going to and from DNS
[09:05] <OerHeks> You can have tcpdump log all port 53 activity.
[09:05] <OerHeks> gordonjcp +1
[09:05] <gordonjcp> you can then read that file with wireshark
[09:06] <JinBaba> gordonjcp,  I need something light and specific 
[09:06] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: I don't know what that means
[09:06] <OerHeks> tcpdump is
[09:06] <gordonjcp> I've got a couple of 1kW floodlights, they're very specific and generate lots of light
[09:06] <JinBaba> that could be left running in the background and maintains list of all dns queries made categories by days of week
[09:07] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: you'd have to work out how to split out the packet dump yourself thne
[09:07] <gordonjcp> *then
[09:07] <gordonjcp> it might be easier to run your own DNS and parse its logs
[09:07] <gordonjcp> you're talking about a massive amount of data, potentially
[09:08] <JinBaba> how many dns queries an average home computer makes in a day? take a wild guess
[09:08] <gordonjcp> thousands
[09:08] <gordonjcp> easily thousands
[09:08] <JinBaba> hmm
[09:09] <gordonjcp> try it yourself, do what I said with tcpdump, run it for an hour, and see how big the file gets in normal use
[09:09] <JinBaba> that's not massive, or is it?
[09:09] <gordonjcp> depends
[09:09] <gordonjcp> how heavily do you use Facebook?
[09:09] <gordonjcp> gmail?
[09:09] <JinBaba> all the time
[09:09] <gordonjcp> just about every element on the page is a DNS query...
[09:09] <JinBaba> I'm searching for something like this: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/dns_query_sniffer.html
[09:10] <JinBaba> I'm sure there would be some nifty utility for linux that i'm missing
[09:10] <gordonjcp> so what you want then is wireshark, and use a similar filter string to what I said for tcpdump
[09:10] <gordonjcp> if you want it in real-time
[09:10] <gordonjcp> I'm pretty sure there isn't anything like that for Linux
[09:10] <thelonius3> Hey 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 (hangs
[09:10] <thelonius3> at 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] <gordonjcp> there might be, but there are already better tools for doing it
[09:12] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, If I start sniffing with Wireshark with the dns filter, will it still capture all traffic or just dns?
[09:12] <JinBaba> I just want dns
[09:14] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: you can do either
[09:14] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: you can capture everything and then pick out the DNS traffic, or you can capture just the DNS traffic
[09:16] <viktor_> can somebody pls help me find out what the memory of my graphics card is? http://paste.ubuntu.com/14566025/
[09:17] <Sebastien> viktor_ try to also ask in ##hardware
[09:17] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, thanks for your help, I'll try tcpdump and wireshark and see how it works out for me.
[09:17] <whiteghost> nothing in boot/start up screen video card should display memory
[09:18] <llldino> viktor_, 2 GB http://www.game-debate.com/hardware/?gid=1158&graphics=GeForce%20GT%20525M%202GB
[09:19] <thelonius3> viktor_ it's an integrated chip it looks like, so it's sharing your computer's memory space for video memory
[09:20] <viktor_> llldino, thelonius3, thanks :)
[09:33] <mickburkesnr> morning all, is there anyone here that uses an ubuntu phone?

[09:40] <guza> hi, can someone help me with policyd-weight, he says that all incoming mail are spams ?
[09:40] <guza> even mail from gmail detect as spam on all PBL
[09:53] <pagios> anyone using saltstack?
[09:55] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: what are you trying to do, anyway?
[09:55] <FXpr0> how do I get skype and tor installed correctly please
[10:01] <guza> pls i need help, i cant find answer on google
[10:01] <guza> on ubuntu policyd mark all mail as spam
[10:02] <Umeaboy> FXpr0: Open the system settings and go Software updates to the tab called Other software and enable Canonical partners.
[10:03] <Umeaboy> Then exit all windows and open Ubuntu Software Center.
[10:03] <Umeaboy> Then in the searchfield you type skype
[10:04] <Umeaboy> As for tor I don't know if that'll be enough to enable it, but it's worth a try.
[10:05] <Umeaboy> guza: I think you have to train the filter in your email-reader to know which emails you want to recieve.
[10:05] <FXpr0> how do I add skype correctly please?
[10:06] <FXpr0> when I search in the online store its not there
[10:08] <guza> Umeaboy: i use pbl lists , and all lists return for all incoming mail resuls as spam
[10:09] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, I've come to know that majority of malwares/backdoors establish connection with their C&C via dns queries instead of hard-coded IP address. So I'm trying to have a good look at them at the end of each day.
[10:09] <guza> what policyd use for dns query ?
[10:11] <Dirkos> Someone knows what this can be? http://paste.ubuntu.com/14566205/
[10:11] <Dirkos> Im unable to remove old kernels
[10:14] <Umeaboy> guza: Ouch.
[10:14] <Umeaboy> FXpr0: I told you already.
[10:14] <Umeaboy> Enable Canonical partners media source.
[10:14] <arussellsaw> yo, i've a question in regards to swap space
[10:15] <arussellsaw> our production databases are showing /proc/vm/swappiness as 0
[10:15] <arussellsaw> 60* sorry
[10:15] <arussellsaw> swappiness is 60*
[10:15] <arussellsaw> however in a free -m Swap: 0 0 0
[10:15] <Umeaboy> Also check that the forth option in the first tab of Software updates is checked.
[10:16] <arussellsaw> we've not modified any of the default swap setup from the aws provided image, why would swappiness be non zero without a swapfile?
[10:16] <Umeaboy> Software limited by copyright or legal ...........
[10:16] <Umeaboy> Do you see it, FXpr0?
[10:17] <FXpr0> I do not.  I have 4.3 downloaded so I thing it installed using the apps store anyway
[10:17] <FXpr0> oh wait, cononical partners media source?
[10:17] <FXpr0> how do I do that please
[10:17] <Umeaboy> Yeah.
[10:17] <Umeaboy> I told you.
[10:18] <Umeaboy> Open System settings.
[10:18] <Umeaboy> The big white wheel in the panel.
[10:18] <Umeaboy> It has a wrench on it.
[10:18] <Umeaboy> Just below Firefox.
[10:18] <Umeaboy> See it?
[10:19] <Umeaboy> Open Software updates. The third on the bottom right.
[10:19] <FXpr0> this is ubuntu studio but that shouldnt matter right?
[10:19] <Umeaboy> !ubuntustudio
[10:19] <Umeaboy> FXpr0: ^^
[10:20] <FXpr0> same thing right?
[10:20] <Umeaboy> Go to that channel.
[10:20] <FXpr0> I did.  nobody is answering
[10:20] <Umeaboy> #ubuntustudio
[10:20] <Umeaboy> OK.
[10:21] <Ben64> FXpr0: you checked https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype ?

[10:34] <alkisg> Hi, I've added a network printer at hp:/net/hp_LaserJet_4200?ip=192.168.1.123 (discovered from the printers dialog).
[10:34] <alkisg> When 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] <alkisg> In previous Ubuntu versions this was working fine, but I don't remember if it had the same URI or not.
[10:34] <alkisg> Any hints? I don't want to set up a static IP on this printer... Do I need a different URI?
[10:35] <personal-> qualcuno che parla italiano ?
[10:36] <intgr> Hi! I just replaced a disk in a software RAID (mdadm) system and I'm trying to install GRUB on the new disk. But 'dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' says "grub-probe: error: disk `mduuid/75216c28efcb3ca9eefca8fec0ba9057' not found."
[10:36] <intgr> All other grub commands, such as grub-install and grub-mkconfig, also return this error
[10:36] <intgr> I've verified that UUID 75216c28efcb3ca9eefca8fec0ba9057 is the correct UUID for the root file system.
[10:37] <intgr> Well, for the partition hosting the RAIDed file system.
[10:38] <intgr> Oh, maybe I just need to wait for the resync to complete.
[10:40] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: that's... not exactly wrong but it's not the whole story
[10:40] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: *everything* establishes a connection starting with a DNS request, more or less
[10:42] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, 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] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: that's a bit of an arse-backwards way to look at it
[10:43] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: you'd be better spending your time ensuring that your machine is kept up-to-date and has a minimal attack surface
[10:43] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, why do you think it's arse-backwards?
[10:44] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: scanning your DNS requests for evidence of naughty behaviour is a pretty much textbook example of shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted
[10:45] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, what are you trying to suggest?
[10:49] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: start by ensuring your system is secure, rather than trying to detect when it isn't
[10:53] <JinBaba> gordonjcp,  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 scripts
[10:53] <JinBaba> DNS is missing out of many other things.
[10:54] <bazhang> JinBaba, try ##security for this, its more appropriate there
[10:54] <ikonia> what is "host based"
[10:54] <ikonia> 3rd part firewall running a the same time as a built in firewall ?
[10:55] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: that's a bit mental, quite honestly
[10:55] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: you don't need an antivirus, unless you're acting as a gateway for computers running Microsoft Windows
[10:55] <ikonia> it seems it's going to cause more problems and actually open holes, if I'm reading correct
[10:55] <gordonjcp> ikonia: yup
[10:56] <gordonjcp> for a desktop that's way overkill
[11:05] <estudo> hello
[11:06] <estudo> ola
[11:06] <JinBaba> ikonia, how is it going to open new holes, iyo?
[11:08] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, sorry for not mentioning this before, I have two laptops, one runs on linux and other on windows. The security measures I've mentioned above are a composite of both.
[11:08] <andrew> hi
[11:08] <ikonia> JinBaba: you can't do that
[11:08] <ikonia> JinBaba: you can't have security messures that work for both
[11:08] <andrew> any one plz help me???
[11:09] <ikonia> I suggest you join ##securirty and try to get a basics of how to secure each setup realistically
[11:09] <ikonia> what you are doing does not sound good
[11:10] <andrew> ikonia can you tell me how to instal backstrack 5 in ubuntu 10.04???
[11:11] <xroot> hi
[11:12] <Mathisen> andrew, it does not work like that you can install backtrack pakages if you want if you add the repo... pls read http://askubuntu.com/questions/232687/how-do-i-install-backtrack-applications-in-ubuntu
[11:12] <andrew> oke thanks mathisen
[11:13] <ikonia> andrew: no,
[11:13] <ikonia> back track is a distro not an app, and backtrack is dead/nothing to do with ubuntu
[11:14] <bazhang> 10.04 is eol, is it not?
[11:15] <Gallomimia> bazhang: oh yes.
[11:15] <bazhang> !10.04
[11:15] <OerHeks> bazhang, yes
[11:16] <swadhin> Hello
[11:16] <bazhang> andrew, it's #kali-linux , bt is dead and so is 10.04
[11:16] <jophish> I get the most awful screen tearing in 14.04
[11:16] <jophish> is this likely to be improved upgrading to 15.10?
[11:16] <Gallomimia> um. do you have any video drivers installed?
[11:17] <jophish> Gallomimia: the nvidia ones
[11:17] <bazhang> what card exactly jophish
[11:17] <jophish> bazhang: 430m
[11:17] <Gallomimia> yeah, it sounds like they're the wrong version or something
[11:17] <jophish> sorry, 750m
[11:17] <jophish> (hah, that's quite far off!)
[11:17] <Gallomimia> well, that's not underpowered
[11:18] <jophish> this is on an external monitor over hdmi
[11:18] <jophish> although I get similar problems on the internal display sometimes
[11:18] <Gallomimia> oh yeah? a tv of disreputable brand and price?
[11:19] <jophish> Gallomimia: nope, a samsung monitor which gets no tearing on another computer
[11:19] <swadhin> May I ask a question
[11:19] <Gallomimia> cause, i get that too. on a 320m, under mac osx.
[11:19] <Gallomimia> on some tv's. not others
[11:19] <Gallomimia> interesting.
[11:20] <jophish> Ah, I don't get any tearing when the monitor is at a normal orientationj
[11:20] <jophish> only when it's anticlockwise
[11:20] <Gallomimia> ohhhhh
[11:21] <Gallomimia> so, this now makes us ask, what's doing the rotation
[11:21] <jophish> Gallomimia: ubuntu is
[11:21] <jophish> as set in the "display" settings window
[11:22] <Gallomimia> cause it's not doing it right. i'm at the end of my knowledge here, but is it being done by the gpu? broken drivers? who knows...
[11:22] <Gallomimia> it sounds like something worth reporting
[11:22] <fyf> Where are you from?
[11:23] <hateball> jophish: you may want to try this to avoid tearing on a global level https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA#Avoid_tearing_with_GeForce_500.2F600.2F700.2F900_series_cards
[11:24] <jophish> https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA#Screen_Tearing_with_Multiple_Monitor_Orientations This seems nearly right
[11:24] <jophish> although I'm only running one monitor
[11:24] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: if it's a normal desktop install of Linux and you're not doing any mad server stuff with it, then all you really need to do is keep it updated
[11:26] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, I did exactly that until CSOC team at office started reporting C&C communication originating from my Ubuntu PC.
[11:26] <JinBaba> It has made me kind or paranoid.
[11:30] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: sounds like bollocks to me
[11:30] <Bernzel> Any tips on software for Ubuntu like Microsoft Word?
[11:30] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: and they know it's "C&C communication" how, exactly?
[11:30] <k1l_> Bernzel: the libreoffice package
[11:30] <gordonjcp> Bernzel: libreoffice
[11:30] <Bernzel> Thanks!
[11:32] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, No, it's not bullshit, as you have suspected. Their job is to actively monitor the network for sec issues and have Qradar SIEM in place. Besides I've seen the pcaps.
[11:32] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: so, they're blisteringly incompetent, and don't recognise a false positive when they see it?
[11:32] <swadhin> need help on realtek bluetooth 4.0
[11:34] <JinBaba> gordonjcp, I fail to understand why we are debating their competency. The point is Ubuntu can get infected and I got to make sure I try my best not to get mine.
[11:34] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, libreoffice writer
[11:34] <gordonjcp> JinBaba: then what you need to do is keep it updated, and not run crazy stuff on it
[11:35] <JinBaba> Ok. I respect your advice. :)
[11:35] <KZi> hello world

[11:43] <Bernzel> Tried to install LibreOffice, got this "gzip: stdout: No space left on device" although I have many gb left on the ssd ?
[11:43] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, could be your /boot is full of old kernels.  sudo apt-get autoremove
[11:43] <k1l_> Bernzel: please show a "df -h" in a pastebin
[11:43] <k1l_> !paste | Bernzel
[11:44] <Bernzel> k1l_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14566546/
[11:45] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, line 9
[11:45] <Bernzel> Yes. It's full?
[11:45] <k1l_> Bernzel: yes, /boot is full. do a "sudo apt-get autoremove"
[11:45] <Bernzel> So I should autoremove?
[11:45] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, is this an installed system or USB session?
[11:45] <Bernzel> installed system
[11:46] <Gallomimia> that should fix. remove older kernels
[11:46] <Bernzel> Running it now
[11:46] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, yep. sudo apt-get autoremove usually removes old kernels
[11:46] <Bernzel> got some errors on that. Posting...
[11:47] <Bernzel> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14566555/
[11:47] <requiest> hi all
[11:47] <k1l_> Bernzel: "ls -alh /boot" into a pastebin please
[11:47] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, do you have an ubuntu bootable USB?
[11:48] <Bernzel> k1l_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14566564/
[11:48] <KZi> the terminal says "no LSB modules are available"
[11:48] <Bernzel> cfhowlett, not at hand
[11:49] <k1l_> Bernzel: uname -a?
[11:49] <k1l_> its one line you cna paste that here
[11:49] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, !  life-pro tip:  ubuntu users should ALWAYS have at least 1 ubuntu USB nearby.  I carry 2: a flat credit card type in my wallet and a gold USB around my neck.  cuz when you need one, you really NEED one.  as you do here.
[11:50] <Bernzel> k1l_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14566571/
[11:50] <Bernzel> cfhowlett, damn. Something seriously broken or what?
[11:50] <cfhowlett> KZi, cat /etc/issue | nc termbin.com 9999
[11:50] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, k1l_ asked for uname -a output please
[11:50] <Bernzel> I pasted it
[11:50] <Bernzel> "Linux benzel-MS-7693 3.19.0-42-generic #48~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Dec 18 10:24:49 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[11:50] <Bernzel> "
[11:51] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, alternative 2 is to boot your USB, chroot to your ubuntu and manually remove the old kernels
[11:53] <Bernzel> Ehm.. So there's no other option than to boot a USB?
[11:53] <hateball> cfhowlett: you could also manually remove the files to free up enough space, without chrooting
[11:53] <k1l_> Bernzel: "cd /boot"  then "sudo rm initrd.img-3.19.0-31-generic initrd.img-3.19.0-32-generic initrd.img-3.19.0-36-generic initrd.img-3.19.0-37-generic"
[11:53] <Gallomimia> is there no way to just rm some files in the /boot? i've done that before
[11:53] <Gallomimia> yes.
[11:53] <Gallomimia> like what k1l_ says
[11:53] <Bernzel> Nothing really happened with that command from what I can see?
[11:54] <gener1c> hey , i changed the owner of all my filesystem to root, and now nginx , postgres uwasgi etc arnt working (probably because they run under their own users and have their own dirs and i destroyed all their setup) is there a way to recover from this?
[11:54] <hateball> Bernzel: If you get no feedback it means it went well
[11:54] <Bernzel> ah ok!
[11:54] <Bernzel> Now what? k1l_
[11:54] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, you can confirm with df -h again
[11:54] <Bernzel> 66% on boot now!
[11:54] <k1l_> Bernzel: "sudo apt full-upgrade"
[11:55] <k1l_> Bernzel: that should let the updates install now. after that we need to remove the old kernels
[11:55] <NeoFrontier> Hi, so I have a backup.tar.gz how do I update that archive without totally recreating it ?
[11:55] <cfhowlett> Bernzel, sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoremove on a regular basis.
[11:56] <geirha> NeoFrontier: you can't update it while it is compressed. You have to decompress it, then you can append to the tar archive
[11:57] <k1l_> from 15.04 on there is a working "remove old kernels" script. but for 14.04 that really is an issue.
[11:57] <NeoFrontier> Ok so let work with the tar uncompressed. What command do I issue to only update files and write in new ones ?
[11:57] <Bernzel> k1l_, Ok. It's finished with the upgrade now.
[11:57] <gener1c> how do i recover from chown root:root -R ?
[11:58] <k1l_> Bernzel: ok. now do a "sudo apt-get autoremove" and please show that if that removes all the old kernels or if we need to pic them manually
[11:58] <NeoFrontier> @ geirha
[11:58] <bramgn> gener1c: you have backups?
[11:58] <Bernzel> k1l_, how do I see if it removed the old kernels?
[11:58] <gener1c> nope
[11:59] <geirha> NeoFrontier: you use -r instead of -c
[11:59] <k1l_> Bernzel: it is in the output
[11:59] <gener1c> there is not much on that server bramgn
[11:59] <gener1c> but i need the db for example
[11:59] <Bernzel> k1l_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14566617/
[11:59] <gener1c> its postgress
[11:59] <gener1c> and i cant access it now
[11:59] <hateball> Bernzel: you can also: cat /var/log/apt/history to see what has been done recently
[12:00] <k1l_> Bernzel: ok. wait a minute
[12:00] <NeoFrontier> geirha, what is the difference between -r an -u ?
[12:00] <NeoFrontier> and*
[12:00] <geirha> NeoFrontier: Ah, or -u, yes. You probably want -u
[12:00] <bramgn> gener1c: do you have another postgress server running? If so, check permissions
[12:00] <NeoFrontier> uhu @ geirha
[12:00] <NeoFrontier> :)
[12:00] <geirha> -r will append the file regardless of it being changed or not
[12:00] <gener1c> ok
[12:01] <bgardner> NeoFrontier: See also archivemount as an alternative
[12:01] <bgardner> !info archivemount | NeoFrontier
[12:02] <bramgn> gener1c: my guess is that the database directory needs to be set to the postgress user, check /etc/passwd for the right username, or, in case postgress is running, you could check under which user postgress is running
[12:02] <gener1c> postgres
[12:02] <k1l_> Bernzel: "echo $(dpkg --list | grep linux-image | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -V | sed -n '/'`uname -r`'/q;p') $(dpkg --list | grep linux-headers | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -V | sed -n '/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\([0-9.-]*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/q;p') | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge"
[12:03] <Bernzel> k1l_, thats one and the same command right?
[12:03] <noise__> Hi
[12:03] <noise__> i'm new to ubuntu
[12:03] <k1l_> Bernzel: after that do a "sudo apt-get install linux-generic" to be sure to have the latest kernel always installed.
[12:04] <noise__> and Have problems with wifi
[12:04] <geirha> that oneliner ... has room for improvement
[12:04] <k1l_> Bernzel: that is one line, yes. it will remove all the old kernels and headers at once
[12:04] <cfhowlett> !wifi | noise__
[12:05] <bramgn> gener1c: i understood you ran a chown -R root:root /, am i right? Then you'll most likely encounter more problems. So it would probably be best / easiest to reinstall the server
[12:05] <gener1c> yeah
[12:05] <gener1c> but i need the db dump
[12:05] <noise__> ok, tnx. And I have problem with Java Compiler
[12:06] <Munster> hello
[12:06] <noise__> I installed jdk. it works fine untill I tried to use Java Swings
[12:06] <Bernzel> k1l_, ok new kernels are installed. Anything else? (:
[12:06] <bramgn> gener1c: you could try chown'ing the database directory to postgres and see how far you get with that
[12:06] <k1l_> Bernzel: that should be fine now
[12:07] <noise__> I can't import java swing
[12:07] <gener1c> where would that be located
[12:07] <Bernzel> pure awesomeness. Thanks k1l_ !
[12:08] <noise__> Anyone can help me?
[12:08] <cfhowlett> !java > noise__
[12:08] <bgardner> noise__: Code sample?
[12:08] <bgardner> noise__: PM me, I'll help you
[12:09] <noise__> how can I send pv? :))
[12:09] <noise__> sry i'm noob
[12:10] <bgardner> noise__: I sent you a message, try to reply to it
[12:10] <noise__> i'm with irsssi
[12:10] <noise__> irssi
[12:10] <bramgn> gener1c: i'm not very familiar with postgres, but the postgres user might have a home directory set in /etc/passwd
[12:10] <bramgn> gener1c: otherwise you could check obvious places like /var/lib/db or even somewhere in /opt
[12:11] <noise__> bgardner: where can I find you message?
[12:11] <bgardner> noise__: On irssi, look for a new window (alt-left and right until you find it).
[12:13] <Munster> bgardner, why not help him here, why the pm?
[12:13] <doshi> YO
[12:13] <bgardner> Munster: Because it looks like a
[12:14] <bgardner> Munster: Java question, not an Ubuntu question.  Was trying to reduce clutter.
[12:14] <cfhowlett> doshi, ubuntu support here.  ask your questions
[12:14] <Munster> java-swing is avialble in the repos
[12:14] <noise__> bgardner: [orwell.freenode.net] bgardner You must log in with services to message this user
[12:14] <doshi> naw im just chillen
[12:15] <bgardner> noise__: Okay, one sec while I fix that
[12:15] <noise__> Munster: how can i get it?
[12:15] <Munster> noise__, in your package manager
[12:16] <noise__> bgardner: No luck
[12:19] <bgardner> noise__: Try now
[12:22] <Afdla> When I insert SD-card into this laptops SD-card slot, Ubuntu won't find it. I am running XFCE, could this be the problem?
[12:23] <Afdla> What part of Ubuntu is responsible for mounting so I could look into the problem?
[12:24] <Afdla> The card is instantly detected on another similar laptop with Ubuntu 14.04 and Unity. This one has Ubuntu 15.10 and XFCE
[12:25] <Afdla> sudo fdisk -l won't recognize it either
[12:26] <noise__> anyone has any idea about my wifi issue?
[12:26] <noise__> with ubuntu it's signal is weak
[12:26] <k1l_> Afdla: look into dmesg if there is an event from the hardware
[12:27] <Afdla> k1l_: seems like there is something: "mmc0: error - 110 whilst initialising SD-card"
[12:27] <Afdla> "mmc0: card never left busy state"
[12:27] <Afdla> "mmc0: cannot verify signal voltage switch"
[12:29] <noise__> nobody?
[12:29] <hateball> noise__: Can you repeat the question and its details, on one line?
[12:29] <hateball> !details
[12:30] <noise__> with Windows I could connect to wifi from my room. but now I can't
[12:30] <cfhowlett> !patience > noise__, also
[12:31] <z4sk4> hi all
[12:31] <z4sk4> somebody test kubuntu 16.04? the ubiquity fails on instalation...
[12:32] <cfhowlett> !xenial | z4sk4
[12:33] <k1l_> z4sk4: ask in #ubuntu+1 and report a bug (if there is none already)
[12:34] <z4sk4> ty
[12:35] <noise__> So ... :D
[12:37] <Lope> I've got a Displayport>2HDMI adapter. I've got 2x1920x1200 LVDS screens connected to 2 LVDS driver boards that have been programmed incorrectly. They don't report the full 1920x1200 res for each screen, they report much lower resolutions. If I force the resolution output, I can display whatever resolution I want. Unfortunately though, something is wrong with the settings generated by CVT, when I use these settings, the image on my 2 screens is grainy, there a
[12:37] <Lope> re artifacts and the pixels wiggle. What could be wrong? `cvt 3840 1200 60` produces xrandr --newmode "3840x1200_60.00"  386.75  3840 4104 4512 5184  1200 1203 1213 1245 -hsync +vsync ... I've tried +hsync, it helps a little bit only.
[12:42] <hateball> noise__: No PM's, ask your questions here in channel
[12:48] <Afdla> Any ideas how to fix SD-card not showing up on 15.10? dmesg gives "error - 110 whilst initialising SD card"
[12:49] <Afdla> tried installing exfat-fuse and exfat-utils
[12:49] <Lope> How 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)
[12:50] <k1l_> Afdla: was it properly unmounted on the other device?
[12:50] <jons> can anyonehelp me building/compiling birdie which i cloned from github?
[12:50] <AndChat464025> !ping
[12:50] <Afdla> k1l_ well no, but it didn't show before trying on the other machine either
[12:50] <k1l_> Afdla: could still be a broken sd card
[12:51] <Afdla> Well yeah, if it broke after removing from the other computer
[12:51] <k1l_> jons: i bet they have a readme or a howto install
[12:51] <Afdla> I'll try it again on the other laptop
[12:51] <Lope> basically 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.
[12:53] <jons> k1l_: i tried that. getting a "no rule to make target 'install' "error
[12:53] <Afdla> k1l_ still works on the other laptop. Tried creating folder and txt file there but still can't open it on this one
[12:54] <Afdla> used unmount before removing the card
[12:54] <k1l_> Afdla: can you try another kernel in grub?
[12:55] <cpaelzer> Lope: does "sudo /usr/bin/get-edid | parse-edid" give you anything useful on your monitor?
[12:56] <Afdla> Sounds difficult. How?
[12:56] <Afdla> Oh and this laptop where it doesn't work is 15.10 and the working one is 14.04
[12:57] <k1l_> Afdla: when you boot your ubuntu choose another kernel in grub
[12:57] <Afdla> In the window with black background and white text?
[12:57] <k1l_> jons: are you in the right folder?
[12:57] <k1l_> Afdla: yes, that is grub
[12:57] <Afdla> Ok, I'll try
[12:58] <jons> k1l_: yes
[12:58] <jons> im in the root folder of birdie
[12:58] <jons> k1l_:i think thats the right folder...
[12:59] <lerner> what do I need to edit a root controlled directory, so it can be edited only by a certain user?
[12:59] <k1l_> jons: are you on ubuntu 14.04?
[12:59] <k1l_> !chown | lerner
[12:59] <k1l_> or chmod.
[13:00] <jons> k1l_: yes/ 14.04
[13:00] <k1l_> jons: so why dont you use their PPA?
[13:01] <jons> k1l_:its the old version... And i want to learn building apps
[13:02] <k1l_> jons: so did you install the depencies and then follow the instructions? http://www.birdieapp.eu/help#tocAnchor-1-1-3
[13:02] <Afdla> k1l_: booting to kernel 3.13 worked
[13:02] <Afdla> now I can access the card
[13:02] <jons> k1l_:  yup
[13:02] <Afdla> I will try again later on the 4.20 or what ever the newest version was
[13:02] <k1l_> Afdla: then you might want to file a bug
[13:03] <jons> followed the same page
[13:03] <k1l_> Afdla: that sounds like a non-ubuntu kernel
[13:03] <Afdla> I run Ubuntu 15.10
[13:03] <Afdla> Just uninstalled Unity and installed XFCE
[13:04] <Afdla> Where should I report this bug? Linux kernel github or Ubuntu VCS or what?
[13:04] <k1l_> ah ok. 15.10 got the 4.2.0 kernel, that is right
[13:04] <k1l_> !bug | Afdla
[13:04] <k1l_> jons: so you got an error while running one of the first commands?
[13:05] <jons> i got an error at cmake... saying missing CMAKELISTS.txt
[13:05] <jons> i made one empty file with the same name
[13:05] <k1l_> jons: compiling is like building a house. if you get an error in the basement you dont keep on building it because it will fall down
[13:06] <jons> ohk. So any suggestions to solve that issue?
[13:06] <k1l_> jons: then ask birdie guys i that is supposed to work that way
[13:06] <jons> okay..
[13:06] <jons> thank you for your time k1l_ ...
[13:06] <jons> :)
[13:07] <Dorfen> Guys! How do i stop the local dns server listening on port 53 (ubuntu 15.04), I've commented out the dnsmasq stuff, restarted service etc. Stil the port is occupied.. wtf
[13:07] <rooted> hello , its seems i cant install ubuntu , dualboot or normal boot with my PC , but it works fine in VMWare , error :ata {DRDY}
[13:12] <RansomTime> Hi, 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?
[13:14] <baizon> RansomTime: check logs /var/log/
[13:15] <Munster> RansomTime, update and upgrade your packages in the tty. Also which gpu are you running?
[13:16] <RansomTime> Nvidia, probably not installed drivers. Might that be the cause?
[13:16] <baizon> RansomTime: yes, nvidias open source drivers arent the best
[13:17] <Munster> RansomTime, could be , but usually nouveau works quite well as default
[13:18] <RansomTime> Driver manager says I can install processor microcode from intel and nvidia binary drivers. I'll try that
[13:21] <Munster> RansomTime, so you managed to get a desktop
[13:22] <RansomTime> Yeah, desktop was fine
[13:22] <RansomTime> it's just when logging into the terminal
[13:23] <Munster> ok , i thought you meant it froze at the login
[13:23] <Munster> page
[13:27] <RansomTime> Ok I installed the display drivers and now it boots to a blank screen
[13:29] <baizon> RansomTime: add the noplymouth option to grub
[13:29] <Munster> RansomTime, the recommended driver ? The processor microcode from intel isn't necessary btw
[13:29] <RansomTime> Yeah the one marked recommended
[13:30] <k1l_> !nomodeset | RansomTime
[13:30] <k1l_> some video cards do need that setting
[13:31] <Munster> k1 most nvidias don't , but it'
[13:31] <RansomTime> I'll check that out. Thanks
[13:31] <Munster> s worth a try \
[13:32] <Munster> never had to use nomodeset with nvidia here
[13:32] <k1l_> Munster: if you have a card that needs it, you will need it.
[13:33] <Munster> k1l_, yeah, usually it';s amd/ati that needs it
[13:35] <RansomTime> Booting with nomodeset now
[13:35] <RansomTime> Just getting a flashing underscore
[13:36] <RansomTime> Gonna try the reinstall and just use the default drivers
[13:38] <Munster> RansomTime, try the recovery kernel firstand choose repair broken packages in the dialog
[13:39] <Munster> after removing nomodeset
[13:40] <RansomTime> Ok
[13:43] <RansomTime> It's a splash screen. So that's something
[13:45] <RansomTime> That's super worrying. Couldn't find disc by uuid
[13:46] <Munster> do you have more than one hdd installed?
[13:46] <RansomTime> Yes
[13:46] <RansomTime> Only using sdb2 for Linux
[13:46] <Munster> do you a desktop yet ?
[13:46] <Munster> have
[13:46] <RansomTime> No
[13:47] <RansomTime> Boot failed on mounting
[13:47] <Munster> RansomTime, separtae disk for linux or partition?
[13:47] <RansomTime> Partition.
[13:48] <KingHaider> Can someone tell me a quick way to find the path of a procesS?
[13:48] <RansomTime> Approx 900 gigs of ntfs 8 gb swap and the rest ext4
[13:50] <rom1504> KingHaider: http://superuser.com/questions/103309/how-can-i-know-the-absolute-path-of-a-running-process
[13:57] <Munster> RansomTime, in thje VT/TTY run sudo blkid , then copy the ext4/sdb2 string to sudo nano /etc/fstab without any quotes then a space and / , then ext4 space, then, defaults and finally 0 space and another 0 , save wih ctl+o , enter, ctl+x
[13:58] <Munster> reboot
[13:59] <RansomTime> Ok. If this doesn't work I'll do the reinstall, that at least gave me a desktop
[14:00] <RansomTime> Rebooting now. And I get a splash screeby
[14:01] <RansomTime> Screen*. And a desktop. So I think that worked
[14:02] <Munster> RansomTime, which desktop are you using, Unity?
[14:02] <RansomTime> Kde
[14:03] <Munster> good , i'm more familiar with kde ..i
[14:03] <Lope> cpaelzer: `get-edid | parse-edid` does not produce anything useful for me. The program encountered unexpected data and asked me to email the author (which I did)
[14:03] <Munster> you could have joined us in #kubuntu with your issue RansomTime
[14:04] <cpaelzer> Lope: yeah it did the same for me when I tried, but according to what I've found I had hoped you would have more luck
[14:04] <Lope> cpaelzer: thanks bro :)
[14:04] <Lope> cpaelzer: I've got some other ideas
[14:04] <RansomTime> I didn't realise there was a seperate channel
[14:05] <Munster> !kubuntu
[14:05] <Munster> RansomTime,^
[14:08] <cpaelzer> Lope: since the output slightly differs did you try gtf insted of cvt already?
[14:12] <apostagi> hello! I am new here. :) I want to make a home network under linux. I used to have under Windows XP. How can I make it? I would like to share one of my folder. Thank you!

[14:22] <Lope> cpaelzer: oh, wow no I've never heard of gtf
[14:24] <Lope> cpaelzer: I see it's significantly different for 3840x1200 I'll try it! thanks!

[14:50] <Lui_> Hello, I have a bug to report
[14:51] <Lui_> my desktop is frozen, not "the desktop" desktop the wallpaper background, icons and selection with mouse are completely inoperative
[14:51] <mdg> !bugs | Lui_
[14:51] <Lope> cpaelzer: 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.
[14:56] <cpaelzer> Lope: too bad, I'm out of ideas for the moment :-/
[14:57] <cpaelzer> Lope: good luck with the experiments on the other approaches you mentioned before
[14:59] <Lope> cpaelzer: http://codepad.org/J2X1HBsx
[15:00] <Lope> I 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?
[15:04] <cpaelzer> Lope: a lot is from the analog age, but here you see what it "means" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFree86_Modeline
[15:05] <TheCowboy> Today 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] <cpaelzer> Lope: 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.JPG
[15:05] <cpaelzer> Lope: I mean honestly what this is configruring are radio frequencies - maybe your neighbor can tune into your screen now
[15:06] <Lope> cpaelzer: did you notice the frequencies suggested by cvt and gtf are higher?
[15:07] <TheCowboy> Any 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] <Lope> gtf and cvt suggest 172/173 mhz
[15:07] <Lope> The format actually makes sense to me now...
[15:07] <TheCowboy> This is on a day old install of 14.04.
[15:08] <cpaelzer> Lope: just making fun - the Mhz is pixel clock, but anyway I saw that GTF < CVT
[15:08] <cpaelzer> Lope: yeah those tools seems to have slightly different reading of the formulas
[15:08] <Lope> yeah but they're WAY different to what my display asks for?
[15:09] <Lope> 148mhz vs 172mhz is huge
[15:09] <OerHeks> TheCowboy, seems like overheating
[15:09] <requiest> i installed ubuntu desktop 15.4. how to mount or how to map the user from linux server to ubuntu desktop 15.4
[15:09] <TheCowboy> which part is overheating?
[15:10] <cpaelzer> Lope: yes, the tools just follow the official formula, while the monitor asks for something a good way off those numbers - I saw that
[15:10] <OerHeks> TheCowboy, gpu itself
[15:11] <TheCowboy> OerHeks, 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.
[15:12] <Lope> cpaelzer: 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] <Lope> cpaelzer: it makes it very difficult for me to guess what 3840x1200 settings should be.
[15:12] <cpaelzer> Lope: I checked my three screens and I see similar values for 1920x1080 http://paste.ubuntu.com/14567341/
[15:13] <cpaelzer> Lope: what screen is this, could we maybe derive sometihng from the specs?
[15:13] <Lope> I 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.
[15:14] <TheCowboy> OerHeks, 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] <Lope> http://www.panelook.com/modelsearch.php?panel_part_number=LP171WU3 LP171WU3-TLB1 and LP171WU3-TLB3
[15:15] <MonkeyDust> TheCowboy  install thermald (daemon) if it's not already there
[15:16] <cpaelzer> Lope: I might have missed part of the initial question - are these two displays combined by a HW device?
[15:17] <cpaelzer> Lope: so do these two appear via ONE HDMI/DP/.. to your box ?
[15:17] <OerHeks> TheCowboy, nvidia prop driver could solve this, i would try yes
[15:17] <OerHeks> maybe you hear less fan too
[15:17] <Lope> cpaelzer: yes. The 2 HDMI displays are combined by a displaylink device to be 1 screen of double the width of each of them
[15:18] <cpaelzer> Lope: so the displaylink device is the one that passes no proper combined edid ... hmm
[15:18] <Lope> cpaelzer:  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] <TheCowboy> OerHeks, thanks
[15:19] <OerHeks> TheCowboy, use the driver tool provided, don't download from nvidia.
[15:19] <Lope> my joining device just offers me double of the connected devices
[15:19] <cpaelzer> Lope: some of the older displaylink devs only supported low resolutions anyway - what generation is that?
[15:20] <Lope> cpaelzer: it specifically says it supports 3840x1200@60hz
[15:21] <Lope> I've used it successfully with normal screens at 3840x1080
[15:21] <cpaelzer> Lope: normal means screen which are not screwed by their FW?
[15:21] <cpaelzer> Lope: did you try "Modeline "3840x1200_59.90"  385.67  3840 4096 4512 5184  1200 1201 1204 1242  -HSync +Vsync"
[15:22] <Lope> cpaelzer: yeah that's what normal means :)
[15:22] <cpaelzer> Lope: most displaylink thins I saw had the 59.9 instead of 60
[15:23] <Lope> I've tried 59hz, 59.9hz 60hz with both cvt and gtf
[15:23] <Lope> I've even tried 50hz lol :P
[15:23] <cpaelzer> Lope: IMHO the two screens (other than FW issues) should not behave like others on 1920x1080
[15:24] <cpaelzer> Lope: so if you can run the screens fine at 1920x1080@60 alone
[15:24] <Lope> ok 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] <cpaelzer> Lope: then when you use two "non-screwed" 1920x1080 Displays on that displaylink adapter
[15:24] <cpaelzer> Lope: it should give you the numbers you need
[15:24] <Lope> I know how to construct a modeline from the xrandr --verbose now.
[15:24] <cpaelzer> Lope: that is just what I meant - copy what a good screen gives you
[15:25] <cpaelzer> Lope: good luck
[15:25] <Lope> Yes 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] <Lope> There's obviously a timing error somewhere.
[15:26] <Lope> (compatability error)
[15:26] <dmfrey> anyone connecting to a Cisco AnyConnect vpn server through the NetworkManager vpn applet?
[15:26] <dmfrey> i can connect and see the sites on our network at work
[15:26] <Lope> I don't have the normal displays with me. Only the LVDS ones. but in any case, they probably need their own weird timings.
[15:27] <dmfrey> but i can connect to our git server on the cli, yet I can see the web interface in chrome
[15:27] <kopele> hey any one of you who use kvirc ?
[15:27] <Kingsqueak> dmfrey: haven't but maybe it's the security policy on the ASA? Are you using a certificate for auth on the session?
[15:28] <MonkeyDust> kopele  ask your real question
[15:28] <Lope> cpaelzer: 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] <dmfrey> Kingsqueak, i generated the token at work. Then I am able to sign in with my AD credentials
[15:28] <MonkeyDust> !find kvirc
[15:28] <Kingsqueak> dmfrey: yeah not sure then
[15:28] <kopele> how can i stop it from comming active windows instantly when some one sends me private msg or use my nick on a channel
[15:28] <kopele> window*
[15:29] <cpaelzer> Lope: I gave up on the 1st gen displaylink devices a long time ago and since then never touched it again
[15:29] <dmfrey> Kingsqueak, odd that it works in the browser, but not the cli
[15:29] <Lope> cpaelzer: I love displaylink. It allows you to connect 3 monitors to a laptop.
[15:29] <Kingsqueak> dmfrey: 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?
[15:30] <Kingsqueak> dmfrey: or if you use the same user account but say from Mac or Windows, does it work?
[15:30] <Lope> cpaelzer: 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.
[15:31] <Lope> ciao bro
[15:31] <dmfrey> it worked from the windows that this laptop used to be
[15:31] <Kingsqueak> dmfrey: yeah odd, no more clues here
[15:32] <dmfrey> Kingsqueak, thanks, i will see if i can find a native client
[15:32] <Kingsqueak> dmfrey: I still suspect a policy issue on the VPN device
[15:32] <Kingsqueak> dmfrey: if you have a net-eng guy who owns it, just be sure there isn't something off with the token generation or user level policy
[15:33] <dmfrey> thanks, i will see if I can find someone there
[15:37] <Kingsqueak> dmfrey: 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?
[15:38] <dmfrey> Kingsqueak, no, and I think that is part of it as well. I don't think it is putting the name servers in resolv
[15:38] <Kingsqueak> ah there you go
[15:38] <Kingsqueak> if you know the IP or can find out 'telnet <IP> <port>' and see if you connect
[15:39] <dmfrey> the server is behind a load balancer
[15:39] <Kingsqueak> you should still see a connect on the port
[15:39] <dmfrey> i know there were some articles a while back about disabling dnsmasq in network manager config
[15:39] <dmfrey> i tried that but still didn't work
[15:40] <olutayo> \quit
[15:40] <Kingsqueak> can you SSH or anything directly to an IP elsewhere on the internal space via VPN?
[15:40] <Kingsqueak> just to be sure you have a working tunnel is the logic
[15:41] <dmfrey> looks like i can telnet to that server on port 443
[15:41] <Kingsqueak> o.k. good
[15:42] <Kingsqueak> so that proves the tunnel is up, it's likely name resolution
[15:44] <dmfrey> looks 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 .net
[15:45] <Kingsqueak> dmfrey: 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 too
[15:47] <adrian_1908> hello. 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] <dmfrey> Kingsqueak, 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 this
[15:48] <adrian_1908> I run w_scan with regular permissions btw, so nothing much is needed to activate the adapter I reckon.
[15:48] <pgx> hi! is there anyone who can help me with a init script on ubuntu 14.04.03?
[15:51] <noise__> Hi
[15:52] <noise__> I have a problem with wifi. my wifi signal is weak in ubuntu
[15:52] <pgx> how do i write a init script to stop bluetooth services?
[15:53] <noise__> anyone?
[15:53] <adrian_1908> pgx: I don't know much about it, but you want to prevent the starting of a service rather than stopping a started service, right?
[15:54] <Kingsqueak> pgx: permanent?
[15:54] <pgx> hey! what i'd like to do is to stop the service so that i can activate them
[15:54] <pgx> with something like service bluetooth start
[15:55] <pgx> when i need it
[15:55] <noob001> hi guys, ubuntu 12.04 with internet working in gui environment but not from terminal: ping or apt-get install or anything else won't work, it says unknown host...
[15:55] <pgx> so basically my laptop boots with bluetooth oof and i can activate it when i like
[15:55] <adrian_1908> If 14.04 uses systemd then something like `sudo systemctl service bluetooth disable` should work I think.
[15:56] <nicomachus> 14.04 still uses upstart
[15:56] <nicomachus> not systemd
[15:56] <adrian_1908> ah ok, nevermind then. sorry!
[15:56] <pgx> adrian_1908: shall i just write the line in  the exec file i created in /etc/init.d?
[15:57] <nicomachus> AFAIK, it wasn't made default until 15.04 on
[15:59] <adrian_1908> pgx: If what nicomachus says is right, my suggestion won't work. I'm only familiar with systemd, and barely so. I hope someone else can answer.
[15:59] <pgx> thank you =)
[15:59] <robotdevil1> is preload still a thing?
[15:59] <Kingsqueak> pgx: trying to find the 'right way' for you, only seeing kludgey hacks
[16:00] <tokam> hey there is a monopoly equivalent for ubuntu named GtkAtlantic. Can you download it and join my server?
[16:00] <MonkeyDust> !info preload | robotdevil1
[16:00] <wiehan> for some reason I cannot post to any other channel other than this one
[16:00] <MonkeyDust> wiehan  maybe you have to !register
[16:01] <wiehan> MonkeyDust, I have been using the same handle (which has been registered) for > 10 years
[16:01] <MonkeyDust> wiehan  then better ask in #freenode (or is it ##freenode)
[16:01] <robotdevil1> MonkeyDust: point with a ssd?
[16:02] <pgx> Kingsqueak: thank you, I had found something and fixed my issue but i am unable to find it again... so i know that if i make a script like: sudo gedit /etc/init.d/namescript
[16:03] <pgx> kingsqueak: sudo chmod 755 scriptname    sudo ln -s /etc/ini.d/scriptname /etc/rc3.d/S99scriptname
[16:03] <Kingsqueak> pgx: I think 'sudo service bluetooth stop' should stop it when running
[16:03] <pgx> kingsqueak: it does it, but i don't know what to write in the file xD
[16:04] <logikos> for some reason when i create a rsa key and ssh-copy-id it to 2 different user accounts then use ssh -i to specify the rsa identity file to use .. it only works for one of the 2 accounts as seen in this log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14567480/
[16:04] <pgx> Kingsqueak: it does stop when i run the command from terminal, how do i create a script for the same stuff?
[16:04] <logikos> i 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] <pgx> just writing the line in the file?
[16:05] <Kingsqueak> pgx: pgx k, there is a config entry to make the service 'manual', just need to find that
[16:05] <logikos> anyone have any experience with this please?
[16:06] <Kingsqueak> pgx: looks like you can make a config /etc/init/bluetooth.override and just put manual in that file
[16:06] <tokam> hey there is a monopoly equivalent for ubuntu named GtkAtlantic. Can you download it and join my server?
[16:06] <Kingsqueak> pgx: sudo echo "manual" > /etc/init/bluetooth.override
[16:07] <Kingsqueak> pgx: that should disable it on reboots
[16:07] <Kingsqueak> pgx: and service start bluetooth would be the way to bring it up if you wanted to manually
[16:07] <lotuspsychje> tokam: no advertising here please
[16:08] <pgx> Kingsqueak: i already tried that it gives me problem when i restart the service: would you know how to write a script like the one i meant?
[16:08] <pgx> Kingsqueak: thank you btw xD
[16:09] <Kingsqueak> pgx: I'm not that great since they keep moving around how init works, so I'm not a great source for that, the old systemv inits yeah no trouble, but these new things, no idea
[16:10] <Kingsqueak> pgx: there's a GUI called 'bum' that you could see if you can install that makes it a checkbox to disable bluetooth
[16:10] <pgx> Kingsqueak: how would it be in the old way?
[16:10] <Kingsqueak> pgx: it would have been an old style init script /etc/init.d/ etc
[16:10] <pgx> bum tells me bluetooth  is off and instead is working xD
[16:10] <Kingsqueak> pgx: you don't want to do that on top of all the system stuff now though
[16:10] <Kingsqueak> pgx: this is 14.04 right?
[16:12] <pgx> Kingsqueak: yes, 14.04: so it could be just like gedit myscript and write into the file /etc/init.d/bluetooth stop
[16:12] <Kingsqueak> pgx: try 'sudo update-rc.d -f bluetooth remove
[16:12] <pgx> Kingsqueak: and then chroot it?
[16:14] <Kingsqueak> pgx: after running that update-rc.d -f bluetooth remove, reboot, it should be dead
[16:15] <pgx> i try  it and will be back on soon
[16:31] <pgx> Kingsqueak: not working... it gives me problem when i restart the services
[16:37] <pgx> does anyone knows how to write init script?
[16:38] <bonzibuddy> pgx: /etc/init.d/skeleton
[16:38] <bonzibuddy> you can use that as a starting point
[16:38] <pgx> i created it  like this:
[16:38] <pgx> gedit /etc/init.d/script
[16:39] <pgx> sudo chmod 755 script
[16:39] <pgx> ln -s /etc/init.d/script /etc/erc3.d/S99script
[16:40] <pgx> and i'd like it to stop bluetooth services
[16:40] <pgx> but whatever  i try to write inside the file
[16:40] <pgx> doesnt work =(
[16:40] <pgx> gedit /etc/init.d/script
[16:40] <pgx> sudo chmod 755 script
[16:40] <bonzibuddy> pgx did you follow an existing script file example or just write a script from scratch
[16:41] <codepython7771> what is the correct way to get virtualbox latest on ubuntu 14.04 so that apt-get upgrade will update it?
[16:41] <logikos> please, does anyone know what my issue is with setting up ssh rsa keys for remote users with a username different than my local username?
[16:41] <codepython7771> I'm looking to use vb 5.0+
[16:41] <logikos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14567480/
[16:41] <pgx> bonzibuddy i tried to follow an example but i dont fine any to stop bluetooth
[16:41] <pgx> bonzibuddy so mine was more like exec= /etc/init.d/bluetooth stop
[16:42] <bonzibuddy> pgx is the goal just to stop bluetooth or is there more functionality
[16:42] <pgx> bonzibuddy stop bluetooth services so that i can reactivate them with sudo service bluetooth start
[16:42] <pgx> bonzibuddy when i need them
[16:42] <bonzibuddy> ah ok
[16:43] <bonzibuddy> i think update-rc.d might work for you,
[16:43] <dcunit3d> hey, so i recently installed the new version of ubuntu 16.04 and it seemed to be working fine. but then i installed nvidia drivers and i'm having problems with lightdm
[16:43] <bonzibuddy> pgx: sudo update-rc.d bluetooth disable
[16:43] <bonzibuddy> should stop it from auto-starting the service on startup
[16:43] <pgx> bonzibuddy i try
[16:44] <pgx> brb
[16:44] <xangua> !xenial | dcunit3d
[16:45] <zmax> zmax
[16:46] <dcunit3d> how do i go about troubleshooting something like this?  what logs do i look at?  when i start the computer, i see the nvidia logo, then one login screen, then it looks like it crashes, the screen goes .  then i see another login screen. i login and there's no window manager.  i can get to a terminal, but it doesn't have any borders. i can open chrome thru the terminal.  i've tried reinstalling nvidia and
[16:46] <dcunit3d> lightdm.  i actually want to try unity, but i want ubuntu without the amazon and search stuff.
[16:46] <dcunit3d> k, i'll post it over there
[16:46] <pgx> bonzibuddy /etc/init.d$ sudo update-rc.d bluetooth disable
[16:46] <pgx> update-rc.d: warning:  start runlevel arguments (none) do not match bluetooth Default-Start values (2 3 4 5)
[16:46] <pgx> update-rc.d: warning:  stop runlevel arguments (none) do not match bluetooth Default-Stop values (0 1 6)
[16:46] <pgx>  System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/bluetooth do not exist.
[16:46] <pgx> pietro@Ubudroid-3:/etc/init.d$
[16:47] <bonzibuddy> hmm does /etc/init.d/bluetooth exist
[16:47] <pgx> bonzibuddy: what about how to write the script? can you help me?
[16:47] <bonzibuddy> pgx: ^
[16:47] <pgx> yes it does
[16:48] <pgx> bonzibuddy: i already made it work with a script to stop bluetooth but i can't recall how i wrote that script because i found it somewhere and i can't find anymore
[16:48] <pgx> =(
[16:49] <bonzibuddy> pgx can you run: sudo find /etc/rc?.d| grep blue
[16:49] <bonzibuddy> and put the output in pastebin
[16:50] <pgx> doesbonzibuddy it doen't get mee any output
[16:50] <pgx> bonzibuddy
[16:50] <bonzibuddy> pgx thx for running that
[16:50] <bonzibuddy> hmm... it doesnt look like bluetooth is starting via init script if that is the case
[16:51] <pgx> but if i write /etc/init.d/blluetooth start
[16:51] <pgx> it does start the service
[16:51] <pgx> or stop it
[16:52] <pgx> how do i put it in a script?
[16:52] <bonzibuddy> pgx if you want to script it i would recommend putting it in /etc/rc.local, that runs on startup
[16:52] <pgx> i tried it doesnt work either
[16:52] <pgx> i need to make it run as root
[16:52] <bonzibuddy> can you put your script up on pastebin
[16:52] <pgx> else it doesnt work
[16:53] <pgx> i just created a file with written
[16:53] <bonzibuddy> pgx: something else must be wrong; rc.local does get run as root
[16:53] <bonzibuddy> on startup
[16:53] <pgx> exec=/etc/init.d/bluetooth start
[16:54] <pgx> mmmhhh...
[16:54] <huwjr> noob question - can I have two mdraids?
[16:54] <bonzibuddy> huwjr: yes
[16:54] <huwjr> e.g. raid 1+1 software
[16:54] <e-dard> One of my boxes is on 14.04 and there were some kernels and kernel-headers that apt said could be autoremoved. So I've ran sudo apt-get autoremove and the box has now been whirring away for an age removing these packages. Why is it so slow and intensive to do it?
[16:54] <layan> hi
[16:54] <huwjr> cheers bonzibuddy - any idea if I can setup LVM on them still?
[16:54] <pgx> bonzibuddy will my file work with that line or i need to write something else?
[16:55] <layan> How to install skype for ubuntu
[16:55] <e-dard> loads and loads of this sort of thing: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14567979/
[16:55] <k1l_> !skype | layan
[16:55] <k1l_> layan: its in the partner repo
[16:55] <e-dard> I assumed it would just be a case of removing some packages it didn't need....
[16:55] <bonzibuddy> pgx: in /etc/rc.local, just put things that you want to run as a command on its own line before "exit 0"
[16:55] <bonzibuddy> no exec=
[16:55] <bonzibuddy> just shell commands
[16:56] <bonzibuddy> be aware that your environment may not be the same, eg $PATH
[16:56] <bonzibuddy> so use full path to programs/files
[16:57] <bonzibuddy> pgx which version of ubuntu are you running
[16:58] <layan> how to update my xubutu 14.04 to 15.04
[16:59] <MonkeyDust> layan  15.04 is !eol (or will soon be)
[16:59] <pgx> bonzibuddy 14.04.3 i reboot and try rc.local but i don't think it will work, it didnt before... brb
[16:59] <MonkeyDust> layan  better wait for 16.04
[16:59] <baizon> layan: my personal recommendation, wait for 16.04 and then upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04
[16:59] <Bashing-om> layan: Rocky road to 15.04 .. must go through the EOL 14.10 process .
[17:01] <layan> MonkeyDust Can i update 14.04 to 16.04 without CD
[17:01] <logikos> i am having trouble setting up ssh rsa keys for any remote users that do not match my local username: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14567851/ - it seems that ssh ignores the -i arg for all users except the one
[17:01] <MonkeyDust> layan  yes
[17:01] <genii> layan: Because 15.04 is not an LTS release, you would have to go 14.04->14.10->15.04   ... but you should probably wait and go straight from 14.04 to 16.04 when the 16.04.1 comes
[17:01] <layan> MonkeyDust why I cant update 14.04 to 15.04 now ?
[17:02] <MonkeyDust> layan  see what genii said
[17:02] <pgx> bonzibuddy imback
[17:02] <bonzibuddy> pgx: any luck?
[17:02] <genii> ( the LTS to LTS is usually not an option until newest LTS gets to the xx.xx.1 )
[17:02] <layan> MonkeyDust I see it
[17:02] <layan> genii thanks!1
[17:02] <nicomachus> layan: also 15.04 is EOL in like... a week.
[17:03] <genii> layan: You're welcome
[17:03] <pgx> bonzibuddy: not really =( do you know how to write a script with this line: service bluetooth stop?
[17:03] <k1l_> nicomachus: first february days is the date now
[17:03] <pgx> bonzibuddy: this will do it i'm sure
[17:03] <nicomachus> k1l_: ah, odd. why the delay...?
[17:04] <bonzibuddy> pgx can you paste the entire contents of /etc/rc.local via http://pastebin.com
[17:04] <bonzibuddy> pgx this is ubuntu desktop i assume?
[17:04] <bonzibuddy> pgx it could be that when you are logging in the desktop environemnt turns it on.... rc.local is more when the system starts up, I imagine it runs before the login prompt/logins happen
[17:08] <mrkie> i'm since recent in ubuntu, i installed it on a new partition, now i have no windows boot option, i have an efi bios, how can i select when i boot to choose from windows and ubuntu?
[17:09] <ballmer> the ubuntu install didn't recognize your existing windows partition and make it an option when you turn on the pc?
[17:09] <mrkie> i just could see the windows partitions while i installed ubuntu
[17:09] <mrkie> ballmer: i didnt see the option to install ubuntu along with windows 10
[17:10] <mrkie> how can i select the option from grub to load windows or ubuntu?
[17:10] <ballmer> then i would try to repair grub, something went wrong https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[17:11] <ballmer> ubuntu should recognize your other partitions and automatically include them in the startup list along with ubuntu
[17:11] <mrkie> yes, but how can i repair grub if it didnt mess up anythign before? it just didnt found windows
[17:11] <ballmer> that means something went wrong, see this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[17:12] <ballmer> i have had issues with ubuntu 15.10 installation
[17:13] <ballmer> i suggest using the LTS version, 14.04, if you do too
[17:13] <mrkie> does it use mbr or efi?
[17:13] <ballmer> it can use either
[17:13] <mrkie> i use it also
[17:13] <mrkie> i can also direct from my bios to an efi path
[17:13] <mrkie> boot direct
[17:14] <ballmer> 16.04 will be here in another few months anyway

[17:19] <pgx> bonzibuddy
[17:19] <pgx> hey sorry i tried reboooting again
[17:19] <pgx> are you still there=e?
[17:19] <bonzibuddy> pgx yup
[17:20] <bonzibuddy> pgx: have you tried http://askubuntu.com/questions/419115/make-bluetooth-disabled-by-default  ?
[17:20] <pgx> i tried eeverything
[17:21] <pgx> the only stuff which works for me is the skript oi cant remember how to write
[17:21] <bonzibuddy> pgx did you try that "rfkill block bluetooth" explicitly?
[17:21] <pgx> yes it blocks it but it creates me other problems
[17:21] <mrkie> ballmer: i now use the default actions of boot-repair
[17:21] <mrkie> it's configuring
[17:21] <pgx> do you know how to put service bluetooth stop in a script?
[17:21] <pgx> bonzibuddy
[17:22] <bonzibuddy> pgx: 1 sec
[17:24] <mrkie> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14568216/
[17:24] <mrkie> ballmer: that's the pastebin but i don't even have windows 8
[17:25] <bonzibuddy> pgx: try update-rc.d bluetooth stop 20 2 3 4 5
[17:25] <bonzibuddy> that will put in the kill scripts in /etc/rc*d/
[17:25] <mrkie> i will reboot now
[17:25] <ballmer> mrkie: try booting, it looks good, sometimes it doesn't get the version number right on the menu not that doesn't matter, mine says vista instead of windows 10
[17:26] <pgx> doenst work xD
[17:26] <mrkie> ok
[17:26] <bonzibuddy> pgx: the issue is if its not in /etc/init it will not run as root
[17:27] <bonzibuddy> pgx: you could put the stop command in your .bashrc with sudo, and use visudo to let that command run as root without a password prompt
[17:27] <pgx> bonzibuddy what about the script ?
[17:27] <bonzibuddy> pgx: the script will just be whatever you type on the command line already
[17:28] <bonzibuddy> ie
[17:28] <bonzibuddy> sudo /usr/sbin/service bluetooth stop
[17:28] <bonzibuddy> it has to be in a script that runs after you log in tho
[17:28] <bonzibuddy> i think thats the issue
[17:28] <bonzibuddy> rc.local is probably working... but when you log into the desktop
[17:28] <bonzibuddy> ubuntus like "well pgx probably needs bluetooth so lets start that"
[17:29] <bonzibuddy> pgx: my apologies dont use .bashrc, use .profile
[17:30] <pgx> bonzibuddy it worked fine like i did it before
[17:30] <pgx> i just can't remember what there was in the file
[17:30] <pgx> and i don't know how to write a script with this command: service bluetooth stop
[17:31] <bonzibuddy> pgx thats like the script already right there
[17:31] <bonzibuddy> scripts are just running whatever is in the file like you were at a shell
[17:31] <bonzibuddy> but you will need to give the canonical path to the "service" command
[17:31] <bonzibuddy> /usr/sbin/service
[17:31] <pgx> so it would be like
[17:32] <pgx> ?
[17:33] <pgx> ? /usr/sbin/service bluetooth stop?
[17:34] <bonzibuddy> pgx: https://gist.github.com/trdenton/1f15067cac3ce524d33a
[17:35] <pgx> thankyou thankyou thnak you
[17:35] <pgx> <3
[17:35] <bonzibuddy> pgx no prob
[17:36] <bonzibuddy> pgx just curious, why do you need bluetooth disabled on startup?
[17:36] <bonzibuddy> if you can divulge
[17:39] <pgx> bonzibuddy So the situation is the following: i want bluetooth disabled cause i dont always need it and it consumes power. i want to start  it with service bluetooth start, because that's the only way i can keep all the wlakaround i needed to make mouse and speakers work
[17:39] <pgx> xD
[17:40] <bonzibuddy> pgx ahh makes sense
[17:40] <pgx> ^^
[17:40] <pgx> i rebbot now
[17:40] <pgx> see ya soon
[17:42] <lerner> im not sure how to use chmod to set a directory owned by root:root to be readable by root and me, not any other user
[17:42] <k1l_> lerner: which directory?
[17:42] <bonzibuddy> lerner: you could set group to root and user to yourself
[17:43] <lerner> chmod u+rw /dev/sda1 wouldnt work, right?
[17:44] <bonzibuddy> lerner I would recommend chown -R lerner:root <dir>
[17:44] <bonzibuddy> chmod o-rw -R <dir>
[17:45] <k1l_> lerner: dont chmod devices
[17:45] <lerner> bonzibuddy, this is for an encrypted hdd, would that work?
[17:45] <k1l_> lerner: you chmod the mountpoint
[17:45] <k1l_> or chown
[17:45] <bonzibuddy> lerner: heed k1l_'s device, chmod the mountpoint
[17:46] <k1l_> lerner: and you can chown the mountpoint to your user only and set the chmod to owner access only
[17:49] <lerner> mountpoint is fore example: /media/lerner/disk2 <?
[17:54] <givello> Hey 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 screen
[17:54] <givello> I've tried using the option to save the setting to xorg.conf but it doesn't seem to have any lasting effect
[17:54] <givello> I also don't understand why I need to do that whilst previously the automatic settings used to work fine
[17:54] <givello> any idea?
[17:55] <givello> (or tips as to where to ask)
[17:55] <givello> Also, I'm not sure what this 60Hz(2) setting even means.
[17:56] <Bashing-om> givello: Do not know .. but Nvidia recomends the 352 version driver : https://gist.github.com/trdenton/1f15067cac3ce524d33a .
[17:57] <PCatinean> hey guys
[17:57] <PCatinean> I get a require_once(file) ailed to open stream permission denied
[17:57] <PCatinean> And am running Nginx
[17:58] <PCatinean> How do I know under which user it runs so I know how to add permissions
[17:59] <EriC^^> it's probably www-data
[18:00] <EriC^^> try ps aux | grep nginx
[18:00] <givello> Bashing-om: alright, thanks. Well, it works fine enough for me save for that small annoyance, so I'll just wait until they fix it I guess then.
[18:03] <Bashing-om> givello: K; But only takes a few minutes to purge the 358 version and see what results when 252 is installed .
[18:05] <givello> Bashing-om: yeah you're right, I'll test to see if that was really the culprit, or if I goofed up somewhere else
[18:06] <Bashing-om> givello: How did you install the 358 version . Makes a difference in removing it .
[18:09] <givello> Bashing-om: okay, that does fix it. I guess I'll wait until nvidia gives the green light then.
[18:09] <givello> Bashing-om: oh it was through this repository I saw advertised with the latest drivers
[18:10] <givello> Bashing-om: this one: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[18:11] <Cyber_Akuma> I can't seem to figure out how to setup tightvnc on ubuntu. I ran "sudo apt-get install xfce4 xfce4-goodies tightvncserver" to get the packages then "vncserver" to start and configure the server, but I can't connect from even a lan connection
[18:11] <Bashing-om> givello: Best one we have now ... All the good guys went there .
[18:16] <lerner> lets say I rename an encrypted partition (luks) to something more understandable than ejghk5042465439fhgjBFI23. Would that affect luks, or destroy already stored data?

[18:29] <Ntemis> hi
[18:29] <Ntemis> just upgraded to 14.04 and my kernel is still 3.13
[18:29] <EriC^^> Ntemis: 14.04 uses 3.13
[18:29] <Ntemis> and no upgrade shown on sys update
[18:29] <jerbot> still working on the powerpc, here.  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ#A_kernel_module_is_missing_from_the_alternate.2BAC8-mini_isos.3B_what_can_I_do.3F
[18:30] <EriC^^> requiest: type cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | nc termbin.com 9999
[18:30] <Ntemis> 3.13.0-74-generic
[18:30] <Ntemis> anyway to upgrade to latest?
[18:30] <EriC^^> Ntemis: yeah
[18:30] <jerbot> Trying to follow those instructions and stuck trying to download from launchpad
[18:30] <Bashing-om> !hwe | Ntemis
[18:30] <Ntemis> apt dont show any updates
[18:31] <EriC^^> you could try the linux-generic-lts-vivid package
[18:31] <Ntemis> oh i have to manually upgrade?
[18:31] <requiest> hey right now i am on windows
[18:31] <Ntemis> why doesnt get me there automatically?
[18:31] <EriC^^> requiest: you meant you had a bunch of menu entries in grub right?
[18:31] <requiest> yes
[18:31] <EriC^^> Ntemis: cause those are kernels from different ubuntu versions
[18:32] <Ntemis> so i better stick to this one?
[18:32] <RFleming> Greetings!
[18:32] <RFleming> where's a good spot to talk backups?
[18:32] <EriC^^> Ntemis: why do you need it?
[18:32] <Ntemis> backspot
[18:32] <Bashing-om> Ntemis: " sysop@1404mini:~$ uname -r >> 3.13.0-74-generic " upgrading the kernel may not be the best thing ... depends on your hardware and use case .
[18:32] <EriC^^> yeah and if you do upgrade the kernel, upgrade the xorg stack too
[18:33] <Ntemis> i want to be stable as rock
[18:33] <jerbot> So I went here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux and trying to figure out if it's possible to download from there
[18:33] <Ntemis> very stable
[18:33] <Ntemis> thats why i waited this long to upgrade
[18:33] <Ntemis> so now am on 14.04.2?
[18:33] <EriC^^> then definitely don't use any hwe stacks i guess
[18:34] <requiest> it is dual boot windows and ubuntu linux 15.04 only 2 option needs to be display and not seconds counts
[18:34] <EriC^^> no, 14.04.3
[18:34] <Bashing-om> Ntemis: Unless there is a issue to remian as stable as possible, remain on the 3.13 series kernel .
[18:34] <EriC^^> requiest: what seconds counts?
[18:34] <EriC^^> you mean the timer at the bottom?
[18:34] <Ntemis> there was a print cup issues on my login
[18:34] <Ntemis> bug sent already
[18:35] <Ntemis> printcups something
[18:35] <requiest> time 10 secons default booting counts
[18:35] <requiest> yes
[18:35] <Ntemis> can i have the 3.18.25 LTS guys?
[18:35] <Ntemis> on 14.04.3
[18:35] <Ntemis> i prefer the LTS kernel
[18:37] <Ntemis> also apt says apache2.2-bin libapache2-mod-dnssd kept back but i cannot install them
[18:37] <Ntemis> dist-upgrade says all ok
[18:37] <nacc> Ntemis: 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).
[18:38] <nacc> Ntemis: if you don't have new hardware to enable, there's not really a reason to switch to a later HWE kernel, afaict
[18:38] <Ntemis> Calculating upgrade... Done
[18:38] <Ntemis> The following packages have been kept back:
[18:38] <Ntemis>   apache2.2-bin libapache2-mod-dnssd
[18:38] <nacc> Ntemis: particularly if you're worried/focused on stability
[18:38] <Ntemis> i am
[18:38] <Ntemis> am staying here
[18:38] <Ntemis> so some bugs to squash
[18:38] <Ntemis> dist-upgrade dont let me update those
[18:39] <Ntemis> and 2 not upgraded but no way to update them
[18:39] <Bashing-om> !info apache2 trusty
[18:39] <Ntemis> shall i remove them?
[18:39] <nacc> Ntemis: probably it needs some manual intervention, try `apt-get install apache2.2-bin` to see what apt says
[18:39] <mcphail> Ntemis: have you added any PPAs or other non-standard repos?
[18:40] <Ntemis> ppas were cleaned out before upgrade
[18:40] <Ntemis> it needs to remove this gnome-user-share
[18:40] <mcphail> By "cleaned out", do you mean removed from the list, or every PPA package tracked down and purged?
[18:41] <Ntemis> is it ok to be removed?
[18:41] <Ntemis> no by the upgrader
[18:42] <mcphail> Ntemis: 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 sure
[18:42] <mcphail> Ntemis: that's why PPAs aren't supported
[18:42] <Bashing-om> Ntemis: ' apt-cache show gnome-user-share >> Priority: optional " so will not hurt the system at large if removed .
[18:42] <Ntemis> ok thanks mcphail
[18:43] <requiest> is there anything to do with grub conf file
[18:43] <Ntemis> ok am clean now
[18:43] <Ntemis> no issues to resolve
[18:43] <Ntemis> nice
[18:44] <Ntemis> thanks guys

[19:20] <austrinus> i have a question about dual booting ubuntu with mac
[19:20] <blaaa> jdqx: 1 keyboard, two layouts, with the menu to pick them showing in the top bar. I can remove the en|US keyboard through the input settings&/hide the top-bar menu, but I do not understand why the en|US layout exists in the fist place. In the installer I had chosen the altgr-intl variant
[19:21] <axisys> Bashing-om: I know.. that is why I wanted to upgrade ..
[19:21] <LifeLibertyHappi> how can i have persistent mounting on a samba share?  i have an issue where i cant mount a samba shared folder more than 2 or three times using the same username and password.  is there an option where i can change that?
[19:21] <lolcat> So how do I get apt to work? I want weechat
[19:21] <s0r00t> lolcat: did you install apt?
[19:21] <lolcat> It usually comes with linux
[19:22] <lolcat> I am so confused
[19:22] <george4n> lolcat, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[19:22] <Bashing-om> !EOL | axisys Can be done, but risky - a lot changed from 10.04:
[19:22] <lolcat> george4n, uhm?
[19:22] <geirha> lolcat: It's not linux, it's cygwin
[19:22] <MonkeyDust> lolcat  first repair your ubuntu, you deleted some essential folders
[19:22] <austrinus> I read recently that is a really bad idea to try to install one operating system using BIOS and another using UEFI, especially on the same disk. However, it seems that the ubuntu amd64+mac images were created to do just that
[19:22] <george4n> are you running windows or ubuntu?
[19:22] <bhalash> george4n: He isn't. He's in Windows. On Cygwin.
[19:22] <requiest> how to directly login without user name and password through tty no gui installed
[19:22] <lolcat> geirha, Isnt cygwin just a linux skin?
[19:22] <s0r00t> lolcat: you aren't using linux
[19:22] <geirha> lolcat: to install packages on cygwin, you run the cygwin setup.exe, but this is offtopic here
[19:22] <s0r00t> it's ubuntu
[19:22] <s0r00t> not the same thing at all
[19:22] <llldino> lolcat, Cygwin is not linux, it's a cli which includes bash. You're still using a windows machine it';s not the same
[19:22] <lolcat> geirha, Just like gentos is a linux skin
[19:22] <geirha> lolcat: It is nothing like ubuntu
[19:22] <ralpheeee> playing around with ubuntu netinstall installed i3wm....after installing android-studio i cannot launch in terminal or dmenu....usr/share/applications shows a desktop icon...??
[19:22] <george4n> im afraid youre in the wrong chat for that then
[19:23] <geirha> lolcat: Go to #cygwin for help with cygwin
[19:23] <lolcat> okay
[19:23] <george4n> lolcat
[19:23]  * lolcat is off to cygwin
[19:23] <Bashing-om> axisys: The path is EOL link to 12.04 and once 12.04 is stable then upgrade to 14.04 .. in April 16.04 is due to be released .
[19:23] <george4n> try apt-cyg
[19:23] <axisys> Bashing-om: obviously I cannot keep it to lucid anymore..
[19:23] <artois> lolcat: for whta?
[19:23] <artois> for what, eben
[19:23] <george4n> lolcat try apt-cyg instead of apt-get
[19:24] <axisys> Bashing-om: but do-release-upgrade fails.. so how do I go to 12.04 ?
[19:24] <lolcat> george4n, -bash: apt-cyg: command not found
[19:24] <django_> s0r00t, teward ?
[19:24] <s0r00t> teward?
[19:24] <s0r00t> wtf
[19:24] <george4n> lolcat, not sure if we can help you then, perhaps re-install cygwin
[19:25] <george4n> in any event, this is not the right place to seek advice for cywin
[19:25] <george4n> cygwin*
[19:25] <Bashing-om> axisys: Yeah .. do the EOL upgrade per the guide . then will be on 12.04 .IF and I stress IF all went well . As advised a lot has changed between 10.04 and 12.04 .. and maybe with 12.04's upstart will not go so well .. maybe yes, maybe not so yes .
[19:26] <skryptkitty> where can i get a free pdf on c programming?
[19:26] <axisys> Bashing-om: lookign for EOL upgrade..
[19:26] <bhalash> skryptkitty: "c ebook +pdf" on Google.

[19:26] <teward> django_: you asked what software works best for pull/push on Github.  The answer is 'git' - the actual command line software for handling git repositories :P
[19:26] <axisys> Bashing-om: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades ?
[19:26] <teward> django_: unless you mean a GUI, in which case I recommend none of them
[19:26] <django_> teward, yeah but id rather use a GUI
[19:27] <skryptkitty> ty
[19:27] <requiest> how to directly login without user name and password through tty no gui installed
[19:27] <Bashing-om> axisys: Read the provided guide - so you understand . change your sources to "archive.ubuntu/old-releases.ubuntu" and the "code" as 'lucid' .
[19:27] <jdqx> i never had luck with ubuntu upgrades. even after upgrading to 15.04 from a 14.04 fresh install.
[19:27] <george4n> requiest what do you mean?
[19:27] <vincenzo> buona sera. Questa è una prova
[19:28] <george4n> requiest are you not presented with a login screen?
[19:28] <xangua> jdqx: that's because you don't upgrade from 14.04 to 15.04
[19:28] <artois> jdqx: sounds horrific
[19:28] <george4n> lol
[19:28] <jdqx> lol
[19:28] <requiest> i mean loing without user name password
[19:28] <jdqx> was thinking about doing a clean install for 16.04 LTS when it comes out
[19:28] <george4n> you cannot login without credentials
[19:28] <jdqx> how about upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04?
[19:29] <MonkeyDust> jdqx  in april
[19:29] <george4n> perhaps, but wait a few months
[19:29] <artois> not 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 distro
[19:29] <artois> reinstalling for a new version is silliness from Windows land
[19:29] <jdqx> yea i'll wait. just wondering if I can trust the upgrade procedure in that case.
[19:29] <george4n> not really, backing up on linux is simple
[19:29] <artois> either you can trust it or you can't
[19:29] <artois> if you can't, find another distro
[19:29] <george4n> and windows has many other problems that linux does not
[19:29] <george4n> such as bloat
[19:30] <requiest> ok but in gui mode we can disable right
[19:30] <jdqx> everything will be backed up anyways so i'll take the chance. if it failed, then a fresh install ensues.
[19:30] <george4n> requiest , i understand what you mean now, you dont want to type your password when you login?
[19:30] <requiest> yes
[19:30] <george4n> Just go to settings, users, select your account and choose login automatically
[19:31] <artois> jdqx: it's nice that you're safe when you waste your time utterly, but you're still wasting your time utterly
[19:31] <austrinus> can you boot a live cd via bios but install using UEFI?
[19:31] <artois> if you could, you wouldn't want to
[19:31] <artois> you having some actual problem?
[19:31] <austrinus> i'm trying to anticipate one
[19:31] <jdqx> artois: so should i stay away from ubuntu upgrade completely?
[19:32] <austrinus> i need to install ubuntu to dual boot on an existing mac
[19:32] <requiest> yes but that is for gui here i same thing want it for tty
[19:32] <requiest> without graphic
[19:32] <austrinus> but i'm unsure about how to go about doing it. some people say that using the amd64+mac image is the way to go
[19:33] <george4n> for tty its not possible
[19:33] <artois> jdqx: 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 time
[19:33] <austrinus> but that image forces BIOS booting
[19:33] <artois> jdqx: if you can't manage it with one distro, it's sane to try another
[19:33] <Bashing-om> axisys: Is an old guide, but still pertinent . Page 2 is the more relevant .
[19:33] <artois> austrinus: problem anticipation
[19:33] <artois> that's what economists are paid for
[19:33] <artois> and they make money for doing nothing useful
[19:33] <artois> =)
[19:34] <austrinus> artois: lol true. but i'd prefer not to break the existing mac installation
[19:34] <austrinus> i figured the best way to do it was to boot the livestick via UEFI and install it the same way
[19:34] <george4n> requiest , you can have an autologin through ssh, if you add your id_rsa.pub to the server, you wont need passwords
[19:34] <austrinus> side by side with the mac os
[19:34] <artois> austrinus: I'm not sure you'll need special steps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/MacOSX
[19:35] <artois> not sure why you need two OSes, either, though
[19:35] <axisys> Bashing-om: so essentially replace all us.archive.ubuntu.com with us.old-releases.ubuntu.com ? it is lucid
[19:35] <austrinus> artois: because college. still need Microsoft office for a little bit longer
[19:35] <austrinus> until professors get their stuff together and linux takes over
[19:36] <Gallomimia> rEFInd is a great boot loader
[19:37] <austrinus> Gallomimia: i was going to use that
[19:37] <austrinus> the main thing that is concerning me is which disk image to use
[19:37] <austrinus> because there is an ubuntu amd64 and amd64+mac
[19:37] <austrinus> and it seems like the amd64+mac one forces boot via BIOS
[19:38] <austrinus> which I wanted to avoid for fear of Ubuntu trying to install using BIOS instead of UEFI
[19:38] <artois> austrinus: no you don't, but even if you did, it works in a VM fine
[19:38] <Delta706> akik: thanks for the tip about "expect"
[19:38] <artois> moreover, Microsoft has already moved to website-based office
[19:38] <jdqx> artois: my strategy is to update only to LTS versions after each version matures alittle.
[19:39] <MonkeyDust> jdqx  tight plan
[19:39] <artois> pointless plan
[19:39] <artois> if it takes you 5 years to get around to updating, you're doing lots of things wrong
[19:39] <Bashing-om> axisys: 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] <Delta706> jdqx: how long do you wait? a few months?
[19:40] <jdqx> Delta706, a few months to a year. seems reasonable to me.
[19:40] <MonkeyDust> i too use lts only
[19:40] <axisys> Bashing-om: yeah this is server.. let me proceed with your steps
[19:41] <Bashing-om> axisys: Check for 3rd party sources ! ' tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ' .
[19:42] <axisys> Bashing-om: nothing there.. empty
[19:42] <akik> Delta706: it's one of those old tools that maybe are not so popular anymore
[19:42] <Delta706> it is working great. I am testing my web server and using a terminal browser
[19:43] <Delta706> akik: so thanks for your help
[19:43] <akik> Delta706: does it work with elinks/w3m ?
[19:44] <Delta706> w3m is what I am using
[19:44] <akik> great
[19:45] <akik> Delta706: here's the history file for it http://expect.sourceforge.net/HISTORY it's from maybe 1990
[19:47] <allizom> which repository should patent-encumbered FLOSS software not officially supported by the Ubuntu team be packaged into? universe or multiverse?
[19:47] <axisys> Bashing-om: us.archive changed to old-release on sources.list file but .. do I keep security.ubuntu.com in there?
[19:49] <Bashing-om> axisys: Yes, keep all the sources .. and change all the URLs to old-releases .
[19:52] <axisys> Bashing-om: still failed .. here is the sources.list file http://dpaste.com/33DBEJ9
[19:52] <Bashing-om> axisys: look'n .
[19:53] <Gallomimia> austrinus: there's a +mac image from ubuntu? i don't think i used that
[19:54] <austrinus> Gallomimia: yeah
[19:54] <austrinus> it forces boot using the mac's BIOS compatability mode
[19:55] <ioria> axisys, you can try with this , replace karmic ... http://paste.ubuntu.com/14569614/
[19:55] <austrinus> which creates a hybrid hybrid MBR
[19:55] <austrinus> which is super hacky and bad
[19:55] <Gallomimia> at any rate. i got it going, but i don't see the refind thing  anymore. i haven't booted to ubuntu in awhile
[19:56] <austrinus> Gallomimia: it probably defaults through it. I think if you don't hold down option it might skip it or something
[19:56] <AndrewT> hi there
[19:56] <Gallomimia> hi
[19:56] <AndrewT> how are you all?

[19:59] <xangua> ruabissh: no, 14.04 is the latest stable LTS
[19:59] <Bashing-om> axisys: Looks to me like that should run . Show us the error you are getting from ' sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ' .

[20:08] <LTCD> Hey. I'm confused by what ls -d   does. Isn't it meant to just list directories, not other files? Tried looking at --help but still lost.
[20:08] <HardwareExtreme> Nevermind, I'll go somewhere else for help
[20:08] <k1l> LTCD: which command?
[20:08] <LTCD> k1l  ls -d
[20:09] <LTCD> What does this do as description made no sense: ls -d
[20:09] <k1l> LTCD: what does "man ls" say to -d?
[20:09] <sudomarize> anyone?
[20:09] <sudomarize> i have this constant beeping, not sure how to stop it
[20:10] <LTCD> k1l - What?
[20:10] <k1l> LTCD: look at the manpage what it does
[20:10] <muhammadabraham1> hi all
[20:10] <sudomarize> found it, you guys are useless
[20:11] <muhammadabraham1> am new to ubuntu ,and i need some help
[20:11] <MonkeyDust> sudomarize  glad i could help
[20:11] <LTCD> k1l I did it makes no sense
[20:11] <Bashing-om> !ask | muhammadabraham1
[20:12] <Pici> LTCD: it lets you list the directory's properties, instead of listing it's contents.  i.e: ls -ld /home/   will list information about /home/ itself
[20:12] <muhammadabraham1> i came from windows so i dont know what to do wiht all my programs ?
[20:12] <xangua> muhammadabraham1: use them
[20:12] <xangua> ! Manual
[20:13] <MonkeyDust> !manual | muhammadabraham1 start here
[20:13] <muhammadabraham1> how ?
[20:13] <MonkeyDust> muhammadabraham1  learn ubuntu like you learned windows: by using it
[20:13] <Guest67230> Hello I'm trying to use Netpbm to convert a png into a jpg... using teriminal. Newbie here... can someone help?
[20:13] <muhammadabraham1> ok ill give it a try ,thanks
[20:13] <LTCD> Pici Ohhh so you use it with l? So ls -ld means display info just about /home/ not what is inside it?
[20:14] <Pici> LTCD: correct. I mean, you could get that info by doing ls -la, and looking at the . entry, but this gives you just the target directory's info.
[20:14] <LiveWithHonor> Can someone help me with Netpbm?
[20:14] <ruabissh> idk why u guys come here to tell us all ur problems before taking a look at the internet
[20:14] <Avak> hi
[20:15] <OerHeks> ruabissh, welcome in the ubuntu support channel
[20:15] <LTCD> Thanks Pici
[20:15] <bob2017> tj- around?
[20:16] <ruabissh> no one pay them for their helping so atleast make it easier to them
[20:16] <Avak> can someone help me with an ubuntu install?
[20:16] <MonkeyDust> Avak  let's hear it, in one line
[20:17] <Avak> I'm trying to install the graphics drivers (for NVIDIA GTX 950M) on Ubuntu 15.10. However, after I install them, I get stuck in a log-in loop.
[20:17] <k1l> !guidelines > ruabissh
[20:19] <Bashing-om> Avak: Installing the driver from where, and what means are you employing ?
[20:19] <Avak> I installed it through the GUI from settings panel
[20:20] <Avak> I can't even open the settings panel now
[20:21] <Avak> Gives me a X Window error (when I try to open it from command prompt)
[20:22] <LTCD> Pici what if I type   ls -ld   without specifying a folder, does it use the current folder?
[20:22] <Bashing-om> Avak: Nvidia recommends the 352 version : http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/95159/en-us . What version are you atrtempting to install .. Additional Drivers is generally pretty smart .
[20:22] <k1l> LTCD: yes
[20:23] <Avak> I'm installing v. 352
[20:23] <LTCD> k1l thanks
[20:24] <Avak> Output from dkms status: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14569865/
[20:24] <Bashing-om> Avak: Installong 252 now ? OR you did attempt to install 352 and failed ?
[20:24] <Avak> I installed 352 it worked
[20:24] <Avak> but when I reboot, it puts me into a login loop
[20:25] <Avak> When I attempt to login, it freezes and returns me to login
[20:26] <Bashing-om> Avak: At the login screen key combo ctl+alt+F1, can you log into the system from this console interface ? We see what we can do to find the problem .
[20:26] <Avak> Bashing-om: I clean installed, installed it again, and didn't logout
[20:27] <Avak> I have a terminal open right now
[20:27] <Avak> but it seems to be very much X-issue
[20:28] <Avak> tried running unity-control-center
[20:28] <Avak> and it gave me this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14569902/
[20:28] <Exagone313> Hi, is there a working solution to transmits my screen *and* audio (unlike vnc)? I tried x2go but audio does not work, their irc channel is dead, and their documentation is wrong or not complete. Thanks for your help.
[20:28] <Bashing-om> Avak: 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 ' .
[20:29] <zerowaitstate> Exagone313: you might look into nomachine. non-free but oh well
[20:29] <zerowaitstate> Exagone313: it's free as in cost
[20:29] <Avak> Do you mean
[20:29] <Avak> dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia
[20:30] <Avak> Output from dpkg -l | grep nvidia : http://paste.ubuntu.com/14569922/
[20:31] <Bashing-om> Avak: Yes, you are correct .. sorry bout that slip .
[20:31] <Avak> Heh.
[20:31] <Avak> I think the fact that unity-control-center is crashing means it's not the graphics driver...
[20:32] <Avak> something to do with X-server...
[20:34] <Bashing-om> Avak: That output looks good to me .. reboot, and if there is still a problem we look at X's log file : ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit ' .
[20:34] <Exagone313> zerowaitstate: sorry but I'm not interested in non-open source :/
[20:34] <Exagone313> else, i'(m looking for a solution to stream my audio securely
[20:34] <zerowaitstate> Exagone313: that's fine. Even nomachine has issues with sound AFAIK
[20:34] <Exagone313> i'm very near to the server (ping 2ms)
[20:35] <Avak> Okay
[20:35] <Avak> let me get on the IRC on another computer
[20:35] <Bashing-om> Avak: K .
[20:35] <Avak> because I won't be able to login after the reboot
[20:36] <asyn> So, I recently installed better fonts using this guide: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/06/better-font-rendering-in-linux-with.html
[20:37] <asyn> but nothing really improved. is there a way to be sure it is working?
[20:37] <ruabissh> whats new in ubuntu 15.10?
[20:37] <HackerII> its fast
[20:37] <Avak2> Ok I'm avak
[20:37] <s4my> hello guys
[20:37] <Avak2> rebooting now
[20:37] <ruabissh> just updated the repositories and etc?
[20:37] <Bashing-om> Avak: Like above, try crl+alt+F1 at the login screen if the GUI fails to start .
[20:37] <s4my> is there a way to install arduino 1.6.6 from a terminal (i mean with apt-get install)
[20:38] <Avak2> yeah
[20:38] <ruabissh> is it faster?
[20:38] <Avak2> Hold on, I forgot what you want me to do
[20:38] <Avak2> cat the Xorg file?
[20:38] <s4my> guys i need help plz how to install the latest version of the arduino ide
[20:38] <ruabissh> i hve 8gb of ram and 1TB of hdd and nvidea gforce 920mb
[20:39] <xangua> !15.10 | ruabissh
[20:39] <ruabissh> i think it will work fine
[20:39] <Bashing-om> Avak2: Yeah, if there is a problem show us ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit ' .
[20:39] <bekks> Bashing-om: just for my personal records - is there a difference to pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
[20:40] <Loshki> Exagone313: 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.
[20:41] <Exagone313> the 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] <bekks> Loshki: 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.
[20:42] <Exagone313> I have it
[20:42] <Exagone313> I'm like 30km far from my server, and with otpic fiber
[20:42] <Avak2> Ah
[20:42] <Avak2> here's the pastebin of the file
[20:42] <Avak2> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14570018/
[20:43] <Exagone313> i'm gonna try if vlc can stream the sound, unsecurely
[20:43] <Avak2> (/var/log/Xorg.0.log)
[20:44] <Bashing-om> bekks: "  difference to pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?" I think not . I can be taught better .
[20:44] <Loshki> bekks: Seems to me sound needn't require particularly high bandwidth, unless you're watching opera in hi-def.
[20:44] <Bashing-om> Avak2: Look'n at the log file .
[20:45] <Avak2> Ok
[20:46] <Avak2> Bashing-om: Line 182
[20:46] <Bashing-om> Avak2: " root=UUID=7960b950-3153-4485-ac9d-49ef3db02b7f ro nomodeset ....." remove that boot parameter, as it defats Kernel Mode Setting. No proprietary driver will be loaded .
[20:47] <Bashing-om> defeats*
[20:47] <bekks> Loshki: Well, sound in 44.1kHz stereo does need some bandwidth.
[20:48] <Avak2> Ok, rebooting without nomodeset
[20:49] <Exagone313> bekks: actually, you have to hl me
[20:49] <Exagone313> I asked
[20:49] <Avak2> Bashing-om: Okay I can login
[20:49] <coma_> Yay, just installed xuuntu
[20:50] <Exagone313> coma_: you can map b to another key
[20:50] <Bashing-om> Avak2: Great! All good now ?
[20:50] <coma_> i just not pressed that kay (b) properly :DD
[20:51] <coma_> key* sry :C
[20:51] <Avak2> Seems so
[20:51] <Avak2> Had to boot with nomodeset to install
[20:51] <Avak2> otherwise nouveau would go crazy
[20:52] <Bashing-om> Avak2: Good deal ... Kernel Mode Setting is a big deal with the system  able to recognize and use devices .
[20:53] <bekks> Exagone313: Well, I was talking to Bashing-om and Loshki :)
[20:53] <Exagone313> ok sorry
[20:54] <asyn> So, I recently installed better fonts using this guide: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/06/better-font-rendering-in-linux-with.html
[20:54] <asyn> So, I recently installed better fonts using this guide: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/06/better-font-rendering-in-linux-with.html
[20:54] <asyn> sorry for double post
[20:54] <Avak2> Bashing-om: thanks! bye now
[20:54] <asyn> but nothing really improved. is there a way to be sure it is working?
[20:55] <Bashing-om> Avak2: See ya next time ... happy trails to you .
[20:55] <coma_> better fonts? For what? Where u have ugly fonts?
[20:55] <asyn> or is there some better solution for better looking fonts? They look really poor after migrating from a Mac
[20:55] <asyn> especially in Chrome, but sort of everywhere... they seem blury
[20:56] <mrkie> hey
[20:56] <asyn> I have a 4k display, so I suspect that has something to do with it
[20:56] <mrkie> what is the best way to install virtualbox under ubuntu?
[20:57] <baizon> mrkie: sudo apt-get install virtualbox
[20:57] <asyn> mrkie, you should download the .deb from their website, you want to most current version
[20:57] <b00s3d> hey
[20:57] <coma_> asyn, i think it not really font problem, some time ago i had same trouble and found solution... it about font rendering, try to google bout it
[20:57] <mrkie> asyn: yes, but will it get automatically updated each time a new release rolls out?
[20:58] <asyn> no, you'd have to update by downloading a new .deb
[20:58] <asyn> thats what I do
[20:58] <b00s3d> i have ran into difficulties with startx, i have a live cd and i would like to reinstall startx, now how do i do that from livecd?
[20:58] <asyn> thanks coma_ I'll try to google for it. any idea what your solution was?
[20:58] <mrkie> asyn: do you just open this deb from the gui?
[20:59] <asyn> yep
[20:59] <coma_> i not sure, but mb disable/enable cleartype or something like that
[20:59] <asyn> and be sure to download the latest guent additions
[20:59] <mrkie> asyn: and if you install a new deb of another version later, does it get updated automatically?
[21:00] <asyn> yes
[21:00] <mrkie> or do you purge it
[21:00] <asyn> no need to purge
[21:00] <asyn> getting the more recent versions is worth it to me
[21:00] <Bashing-om> b00s3d: "startx' is special use case in only some desktop environmnets . So don't from live . What is the problem and what release & desltop are you on ?
[21:00] <b00s3d> will try http://askubuntu.com/questions/21309/how-to-restore-xserver
[21:01] <OerHeks> on the virtualbox site 5.12, in our repos 5.10 and tested, i would stick to the repo
[21:01] <jim_the_tech_guy> Anyone having trouble on smb shares after this weekend?
[21:01] <mrkie> async: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.0.12/virtualbox-5.0_5.0.12-104815~Ubuntu~precise_i386.deb is not enough?
[21:02] <asyn> are you really using Precise?
[21:02] <asyn> mrkie?
[21:03] <lahaugen87> my smb works fine, jim
[21:03] <mrkie> asyn: no sorry, i need http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.0.12/virtualbox-5.0_5.0.12-104815~Ubuntu~trusty_amd64.deb (i have intel i7 haswell qcore 64 bit os)
[21:03] <jim_the_tech_guy> I can get windows computers to access the smb, but ubuntu wont accept credentials.
[21:03] <mrkie> i run Ubuntu 14.04 ("Trusty"
[21:05] <coma_> jim, how about workgroup?
[21:06] <jim_the_tech_guy> the workgroup is set fine, checked that first.  What I dont understand is that normally windows has issues interfacing. I dont know what would stop  ubuntu from interfacing with ubuntu.
[21:06] <fartface> Is there a way to specify a port with the ssh-copy-id command?
[21:07] <ferret_guy> Hey so I am trying to setup a bridged vpn as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN but I cannot for the life of me get my bridged adaptor to come up my interface config is here:http://paste.ubuntu.com/14570198/
[21:07] <Pici> fartface: with the -p option
[21:08] <fartface> Pici: ssh-copy-id, not just ssh
[21:08] <asyn> mrkie that looks good
[21:08] <asyn> be sure to also get the guest addition\s
[21:08] <axisys> back
[21:08] <akik> fartface: you can see the option with "ssh-copy-id -h"
[21:08] <asyn> makes a huge difference
[21:08] <fartface> akik: cheers
[21:08] <asyn> i can't take anyone named fartface seriously...
[21:09] <Pici> fartface: it should work, if it doesn't, try with ssh-copy-id -o Port=999 ,etc
[21:09] <fartface> Pici: Ah, I'll try that.  Just specifying -p didn't work.
[21:09] <fartface> asyn: That's fair. lol
[21:10] <fartface> Ah!  I found it!
[21:10] <fartface> What the hell, you need to specify all arguments within quotes and it works
[21:10] <fartface> aka ssh-copy-id "root@host -p 2991"
[21:11] <coma_> :DD
[21:11] <Bashing-om> axisys: Release upgade from 10.04 ... are you now on 12.04 ?
[21:13] <axisys> Bashing-om: no it failing like here http://dpaste.com/2H20M3V
[21:13] <Bashing-om> axisys: Look'n .
[21:14] <noise__> Hi
[21:14] <noise__> i have problem with wifi in Ubuntu
[21:15] <noise__> anyone can help me?
[21:15] <noise__> nobody?
[21:17] <Gallomimia> !ask
[21:17] <mrkie> asyn: sorry my network got broken, but what did you mean by "latest guent additions"?
[21:17] <axisys> Bashing-om: simplified the sources.list .. using ioria's example.. still failing same way..
[21:17] <Gallomimia> !wifi
[21:18] <axisys> Bashing-om: http://dpaste.com/0MW2J19
[21:19] <asyn> guest additions is a feature that gives your VM full access to the drivers of your host OS. it comes as an ISO that you mount inside the vm and install
[21:19] <mrkie> asyn: this post tells it comes with the install: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=45734
[21:21] <jnix> stupid question time! what does the * mean to the left of a ntp server in ntpq -p? i.e. *okr-wan-rtr-1.w 10.9.24.16       3 u    2   64    1    2.151   -0.052   0.575
[21:21] <jnix> not seeing it in man page or i'm blind
[21:22] <Pici> jnix: I was just looking at a document about that recently, let me see if I can dig it up.
[21:22] <mrkie> asyn: thanks anyways
[21:22] <asyn> yeah virtualbox can auto download them now if you select install guest additions from the top menu
[21:22] <Bashing-om> axisys: Hummm ... new one on me .. Maybe a GPG thing ? Do you have the signing keys on your server ' sudo apt-key finger ' ?
[21:22] <asyn> but they are not pre-installed.
[21:22] <asyn> mrkie
[21:22] <jnix> Pici: cool, thanks
[21:23] <asyn> it will mount the image for you and initiate the install process, but you have to remember to actually do that from within your VM first
[21:23] <mrkie> asyn: i will search for the iso file
[21:24] <Pici> jnix: see http://doc.ntp.org/4.1.2/debug.htm see the section "Verifying Correct Operation" and the specific item about those symbols is on the line starting with "The tattletale symbol"
[21:24] <jnix> oh
[21:24] <jnix> that works
[21:24] <axisys> Bashing-om: http://dpaste.com/04T1KXJ
[21:25] <asyn> mrkie http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/
[21:26] <asyn> mrkie, i believe this is what you are looking for http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.0.12/VBoxGuestAdditions_5.0.12.iso
[21:26] <mrkie> asyn: i pointed that url already to my browser, thanks, can i install it later?
[21:26] <asyn> yes, first get Windows installed in Virtual Box
[21:26] <Bashing-om> axisys: Ouch .. looks sparse to me .. as in reference to mine (14.04 ) : http://paste.ubuntu.com/14570344/ .
[21:27] <mrkie> sure, what would you recomment as being the virtual hdd size? 200 gb? so it will biger when i add more?
[21:28] <maurice_> hallo , ik heb is een vraag. mijn prullenbak krijg ik niet geopend. Dus ik kan hem ook niet legen. Als ik via het programma bleach bit probeer , dan lukt het ook niet en loopt linux vast. weet iemand hier een oplossing voor? voorderest werkt linux perfect
[21:28] <Pici> !nl | maurice_
[21:28] <genii> !nl
[21:28] <axisys> Bashing-om: I checked with another lucid server here and same keys as my other one
[21:29] <asyn> mrkie, that is up to you. you can expand it later if you have to
[21:29] <mrkie> asyn: nice, so you can shrink it when you close the vm
[21:29] <mrkie> :)
[21:31] <mrkie> i will reboot to ubuntu now to install virtualbox, i will install mirc after that in the guest, before i used playonlinux that is wine and i installed mirc on it
[21:32] <Bashing-om> axisys: Sorry, In this instance I am at a loss to know how to proceed .
[21:32] <maurice_> niemand die iets weet?
[21:32] <k1l> !nl | maurice_
[21:32] <axisys> Bashing-om: I am guessing download the precise iso and mount and run the upgrade from there?

[21:33] <AceOfSpades> hi
[21:33] <AceOfSpades> :-D
[21:34] <Ahti> anyone help? I'm feeling pure rage having tried to get samba working for the past 3 hours
[21:35] <jerbot> I think I've found my network drivers, now i'm trying to add them to a minicd.  Is there an easy way to do this?
[21:35] <Ahti> nothing is working, no matter what security i set, with or without it sprouts the same error everytime with NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
[21:35] <Bashing-om> axisys: That is a very viable option .. but hang loose here a bit ... we are in discussion on some means to get over the hump now .
[21:35] <Ahti> Windows client thinks the share is misspelled or something despite it showing up under network
[21:36] <axisys> Bashing-om: ok
[21:36] <Ahti> a royal PITA
[21:36] <awakino> #pyramid
[21:37] <mekhami> lrighnt boys
[21:37] <mekhami> alright*
[21:37] <mekhami> today is the day i win a game.
[21:37] <mekhami> !won
[21:37] <mekhami> heh
[21:37] <mekhami> neeevermind.
[21:37] <elky> mekhami: you're probably in the wrong channel
[21:37] <Pinkamena_D> how can I change default settings for all users?
[21:37] <gordonjcp> Pinkamena_D: default settings for what?
[21:38] <Pinkamena_D> for example: file manager
[21:38] <Bashing-om> axisys: EriC^^  came up with this "shaddy" work-around link : http://askubuntu.com/questions/425355/error-authenticating-some-packages-while-upgrade . What do you think ?
[21:39] <axisys> Bashing-om: let me check
[21:40] <axisys> Bashing-om: trying it now
[21:40] <axisys> so do the sudo do-release-upgrade only?
[21:41] <Bashing-om> axisys: There is also the thought that the mirror site is at fault .. to await and see if the mirror syncs up .
[21:41] <fartface> When I try to execute `chsh`, I get "You may not change the shell for 'developer'".  Is there a way around this if I've got sudo rights?
[21:41] <EriC^^> fartface: sudo chsh <user> -s /shell
[21:42] <fartface> Thanks!
[21:42] <EriC^^> could be chsh -s /shell <user>
[21:42] <EriC^^> no problem
[21:42] <lord4163> EriC^^: the second one ;)
[21:43] <EriC^^> thanks
[21:43] <Bashing-om> axisys: the tutorial - NOT substantiated - " create the file  /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades.d/unauth.cfg  " .
[21:43] <axisys> Bashing-om: thats what I did
[21:43] <Guest610> alguem falando Portugues?
[21:43] <axisys> and running.. and looks to be upgrading
[21:43] <EriC^^> !pt | Guest610
[21:43] <axisys> Bashing-om: ^
[21:43] <Guest610> #ubuntu-br
[21:44] <axisys> Bashing-om: so far so good
[21:45] <Bashing-om> axisys: Then ' sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ' see now if it completes . then ' sudo do-release-upgrade ' .
[21:45] <axisys> Bashing-om: yep.. looks to be working..
[21:46] <EriC^^> axisys: after you're done, install debsums and run a check on the whole system
[21:46] <axisys> EriC^^: k
[21:46] <EriC^^> that will verify the integrity of installed packages, as you've used a workaround to disable that feature
[21:46] <axisys> EriC^^: right.. i know how to install, but how do I run a check on whole system?
[21:46] <EriC^^> i think it's just sudo debsums
[21:47] <axisys> EriC^^: ok
[21:47] <bob2017> tj- around?
[21:47] <axisys> EriC^^: thnaks a lot
[21:47] <bob2017> or k1rk?
[21:47] <EriC^^> axisys: no problem
[21:48] <EriC^^> axisys: you can use sudo debsums | grep -v OK , to weed out all the OK 'd files it gives back, i think
[21:48] <Exagone313> Hi, I didn't installed a splashscreen, and I have a tty that appears a second before login screen, how to display a black screen instead? thanks for your help
[21:49] <Exagone313> by splash I mean plymouth
[21:49] <EriC^^> Exagone313: type cat /proc/cmdline | nc openterm.tk 9
[21:50] <Exagone313> hmm http://openterm.tk/ci4v
[21:50] <EriC^^> ok, you're missing the vt.handoff
[21:51] <EriC^^> that's odd
[21:51] <Exagone313> I started from minimal or server idk
[21:51] <EriC^^> type cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | nc openterm.tk 9
[21:52] <Exagone313> done
[21:52] <EriC^^> ok, it seems to be there in the grub.cfg
[21:52] <EriC^^> as $vt_handoff
[21:54] <Exagone313> so?
[21:54] <EriC^^> ok i think i see what sets it, under 10_linux mid page
[21:54] <EriC^^> it looks at gfxpayload to see if keep is set there
[21:54] <EriC^^> type cat /etc/default/grub | nc openterm.tk 9
[21:56] <Exagone313> done
[21:56] <scrabcakes> has anyone else encountered a problem whereby dropbox claims your disk space is low, when in fact you have plenty?
[21:56] <EriC^^> Exagone313: ok, gfxpayload isn't set to keep there
[21:57] <EriC^^> Exagone313: you could try just adding vt.handoff=7 in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT after quiet splash
[21:57] <EriC^^> then sudo update-grub
[21:57] <Exagone313> oh and something maybe useful
[21:57] <Exagone313> it run under virtualbox
[21:58] <Exagone313> I thought it wasn't grub related, so now if
[21:58] <EriC^^> as far as i know vt.handoff is what gives a nice transition while booting
[21:58] <Bashing-om> scrabcakes: Many times it is the boot partition lacking space, what returns ' df -h ; df -i ' ?
[21:59] <scrabcakes> Bashing-om: should I paste it all here?
[21:59] <fartface> I'm jumping into a server that I feel like has been a bit "screwed up", when I got to it, shell was set to `sh` instead of bash, but not on purpose, and I've been unable to login via key rather than simple using a password.  I've been able to change the shell to bash, but logging in via key still doesn't seem to work.  If I use `ssh-copy-id`, it'll ask me for the password, and copy the key over (or at least not output any errors), but then when I try to lo
[21:59] <fartface> gin via ssh, it'll still ask me for a password
[22:00] <Bashing-om> !paste | scrabcakes
[22:00] <fartface> I've checked /var/ssh/ssh_config against a server that *does* work with key based login, as well as /var/ssh/sshd_config, and they both look good, is there anything else I should be checking?
[22:00] <EriC^^> /var/ssh or /etc/ssh?
[22:01] <EriC^^> try ssh -vvv to give more info
[22:01] <scrabcakes> Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14570612/
[22:01] <fartface> etc, sorry
[22:01] <fartface> One sec
[22:02] <Exagone313> EriC^^: thanks, working
[22:02] <EriC^^> Exagone313: no problem
[22:02] <fartface> Well that makes sense then... wtf.  Someone's set it to load keys from /var/www/.ssh/known_hosts
[22:02] <EriC^^> scrabcakes: also paste df -h
[22:02] <Bashing-om> scrabcakes: look'n .
[22:03] <scrabcakes> df -h -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14570628/

[22:06] <EriC^^> scrabcakes: also sudo apt-get autoclean
[22:07] <scrabcakes> no luck :/ also my dropbox only has 8mb of stuff on it

[22:10] <scrabcakes> done, same link
[22:11] <EriC^^> ok, type sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.19.0-{33,37,39,41}-generic
[22:11] <EriC^^> does this kernel you're using work nicely with no problems?
[22:12] <scrabcakes> err it seems so, why's that?
[22:12] <EriC^^> to see if we should remove the one before it too
[22:13] <lerner> is there any ubuntu mmorpg?
[22:13] <Myrtti> "this is it"
[22:15] <scrabcakes> EriC^^: that's fixed it O.o how come?
[22:15] <Myrtti> lerner: assuming you are looking for a real game... well... Steam might have some, and the Software Centre.
[22:15] <EriC^^> scrabcakes: your root partition has very little space
[22:16] <EriC^^> scrabcakes: it's going to get full again soon
[22:16] <scrabcakes> EriC^^: but not 8mb little? Or is there some sort of reserved space that dropbox isn't allowed? And yes it's because I'm on a chromebook :P
[22:16] <EriC^^> scrabcakes: yeah the root partition has 5% reserved for root
[22:17] <scrabcakes> EriC^^: aha! cheers dude :)
[22:17] <EriC^^> :)
[22:23] <xalias> join #techiechan
[22:36] <jerbot> Finally found the right release, working great: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/14.04/release/
[22:36] <Zulu_Too> I just installed Xubuntu 9.10 and the desktop is bigger than my wide screen TV monitor. I tried to change the video settings so the desktop would fit correctly but all of the settings didn't work the way I wanted. So I set it to a different resolution and then the screen flickered and went into afther a while to the login screen. I tried Ctrl + Alt + F1  but that did not work. I am in root right now, not on this computer but is there
[22:36] <jerbot> Mac (PowerPC) and IBM-PPC (POWER5) alternate install image
[22:38] <carl_> I try to install qmail but I receive a message: "Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/", does anyone know how to fix this?
[22:42] <Chaser> !9.10 | Zulu_Too
[22:44] <Zulu_Too> Chaser is that the command?
[22:44] <k1l> Zulu_Too: really ubuntu 9.10 ?
[22:44] <Chaser> Zulu_Too: 9.10 is EOL'ed. Its too old.
[22:45] <k1l> Zulu_Too: ubuntu 9.10 is from 2009. load a actual ubuntu iso like 14.04 or 15.10
[22:45] <Zulu_Too> I 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.
[22:46] <Zulu_Too> I tried Ubuntu 15.10 and it was a pig on resources.
[22:46] <k1l> Zulu_Too: you are doing it very wrong. ubuntu 9.10 is dead. dont use that anymore.
[22:46] <nicomachus> Zulu_Too: if you need something lightweight, use lubuntu
[22:47] <Zulu_Too> Is Lubuntu the same kernel as 15.10? and are the apt-gets up to date with the repositories?
[22:48] <k1l> Zulu_Too: you are mixing things
[22:48] <k1l> Zulu_Too: we have different desktops like unity, xfce, kde and lxde. that makes it to ubuntu, Xubuntu, Kubuntu,Lubuntu
[22:49] <k1l> Zulu_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_Too> Lots 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] <k1l> Zulu_Too: if you want lightweight use Lubuntu. like Lubuntu 14.04 or Lubuntu 15.10
[22:50]  * AndChat464025 we are you
[22:50] <k1l> Zulu_Too: if you want a server, dont use a desktop at all. since the desktop will use ressources that are better used by the server
[22:50] <Zulu_Too> K11 will that work with older machines as well without the transit time lags?
[22:51] <k1l> Zulu_Too: you cant run 9.10 that has not seen any security updates since 2010. so a 10year old can hack that system.
[22:52] <Zulu_Too> What if I just use in the StartX mode in command prompt would you still recommend Lubuntu?
[22:52] <k1l> Zulu_Too: dont use startx on ubuntu
[22:52] <Zulu_Too> Oh! back to square one. There are so many distros.
[22:53] <k1l> Zulu_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_Too> I was thinking of FreeBSD.
[22:53] <k1l> well, freebsd is not in the scope of this channel.
[22:54] <Zulu_Too> K11 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.
[22:55] <Zulu_Too> I will give lubuntu a try. Nothing to lose. I have tons of computers here.
[22:55] <k1l> Zulu_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 properly
[22:55] <RealKillaz> Hi there ubuntu gents
[22:56] <reese_> hi
[22:56] <k1l> Zulu_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_Too> K11 that is where a firewall comes in and iptables.
[22:57] <k1l> Zulu_Too: doesnt help you
[22:58] <Zulu_Too> You mentioned 14.04 and 15.10 is better then?
[22:58] <RealKillaz> I 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) failed
[22:58] <k1l> Zulu_Too: 14.04 or 15.10 is your only choice.
[22:58] <RealKillaz> During installation...
[22:58] <RealKillaz> We've checked the DVD and everything looks just fine
[22:58] <Zulu_Too> Ok thanks. I will experiment with them then. Lightweight is the way to go to give the CPU a break.
[22:59] <RealKillaz> I've googled and al threads indicates issues with HD...
[22:59] <nicomachus> Zulu_Too: this is a server, right? does it have a monitor or any sort of display at all?
[22:59] <RealKillaz> can we conclude that indeed... or are there other possibilities?
[22:59] <nicomachus> RealKillaz: you can do a smart check and verify that.
[22:59] <Quantos> So check the HDD health with the utility from the HDD manufacturer RealKillaz
[22:59] <Zulu_Too> K11 about the repositories with the above any comments?
[23:00] <k1l> Zulu_Too: you dont need a desktop on a server. you can manage the server with ssh.
[23:00] <DirtyCajun> dude. 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. My Linux textbook just told me how to use tar... and gzip... for 2 chapters... then said its old and everyone uses .rar and .7z ect that do both at once.
[23:02] <Bashing-om> DirtyCajun: Millions of programmers pour over the code, linux is a fast moving target .
[23:02] <k1l> DirtyCajun: .tar and gzip are still used.
[23:02] <RealKillaz> nicomachus, How can I do that.. and is it possible to run that with the OS running?
[23:03] <RealKillaz> nicomachus, is that the smartcl tool?
[23:03] <Zulu_Too> K11 I have used SSH from a Windows box to Ubuntu years ago. You bring back memories. Good point. :)
[23:03] <dschense> anybody here who knows how to get a old Epson AL-C1100 printer running with ubuntu 15.10 over the network ?
[23:03] <nicomachus> !smart | RealKillaz
[23:03] <Zulu_Too> K11 you just made my day. That is what I will consider now.
[23:04] <RealKillaz> Quantos, Yes, I;m trying to figure this out with the OS running since we have an engineer onsite which is on the go to run a live cd...
[23:04] <nicomachus> RealKillaz: yes you can do it with the OS running.
[23:05] <Quantos> I'm going to step back RealKillaz, I don't think I can safely advise you on a running server
[23:05] <Zulu_Too> K11 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.
[23:06] <k1l> Zulu_Too: sorry, but you just installed a 9.10 that is from 2009.
[23:06] <nicomachus> lol
[23:06] <TheEnderCreeper0> hey
[23:06] <TheEnderCreeper0> i ment hi
[23:06] <Zulu_Too> K11, that is just OK with me. I am going to trash the CD disk and download what you suggested. Thanks for the feedback.
[23:07] <TheEnderCreeper0> hello i need help
[23:07] <RealKillaz> nicomachus, ok thank you I will check that tool
[23:07] <reese_> How do you correctly ping a server using it's ip?
[23:07] <Zulu_Too> It is not a total loss when you learn a valuable lesson K11.
[23:07] <nicomachus> ping <ip>
[23:07] <k1l> reese_: "ping ip"
[23:07] <k1l> stop it with ctrl+c
[23:08] <TheEnderCreeper0> ya
[23:08] <TheEnderCreeper0> stop ctrl+c
[23:08] <TheEnderCreeper0> question
[23:09] <TheEnderCreeper0> hello
[23:09] <k1l> TheEnderCreeper0: stop that
[23:09] <TheEnderCreeper0> question
[23:09] <TheEnderCreeper0> ok
[23:09] <TheEnderCreeper0> ok
[23:09] <Zulu_Too> K11, thanks a lot for the conversation and I am right back to the drawing board. I will let you know what happens. Thanks again friend. :)
[23:10] <RealKillaz> nicomachus, OK one more question maybe you can point me into correct direction:
[23:11] <RealKillaz> nicomachus, I'm getting this message: Smartctl open device: /dev/sda failed: DELL or MegaRaid controller, please try adding '-d megaraid,N'
[23:11] <RealKillaz> nicomachus, any idea?
[23:17] <nicomachus> RealKillaz: I'm not familiar with raid setups, but did you try adding -d megaraid,N as suggested...?
[23:20] <kexibq> does anyone have an idea why my opengl/powermizer settings reset every time I boot? (15.10, gnome)
[23:20] <matthewp2> ya
[23:23] <d3jake> Odd question: I wasn't sure how to search for it. How do I make linux/lxde auto highlight the contents of a text box when I click in it, when it wasn't previously selected?
[23:23] <bob2017> tj-?
[23:23] <reese_> if only i knew
[23:24] <nicomachus> bob2017: better of just asking your question instead of waiting around for a specific user
[23:24] <bob2017> nicomachus: its been a whole saga for like a week
[23:24] <jerbot> Okay, so I have lubuntu 14 trusty tahr desktop installed, but now i'm booting to a black screen with nothing but a cursor.  The last message I see is: "ERROR: Firmware file "b43-open/ucode5.fw" not found...."  So, I downloaded the driver.  How can I install the driver from USB before the OS loads?
[23:24] <bob2017> nicomachus: at this point, my mac with 2 video cards, one ati and one nvidia, and three monitors, is detecting two of three monitors, and showing no video on any
[23:24] <mephux> can anyone recommend a good linux laptop.. backlit keyboard, at least 16gb ram.. not super ugly.
[23:24] <nicomachus> bob2017: then simplify it as best possible, or wait until you see their name in the userlist
[23:25] <reese_> jerbot
[23:25] <welovfree> I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 on vmware and it's a little bit slow, and I'm wondering what are the best settings to make run smoothly?
[23:25] <reese_> try reinstalling the os completely
[23:25] <k1l> no
[23:25] <xangua> mephux: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuPre-installed
[23:26] <reese_> or run a live os from usb at biod
[23:26] <matthewp2> ya
[23:26] <reese_> bios*
[23:26] <k1l> welovfree: you could see if you cangive more ressources to the vm.
[23:26] <welovfree> I got 4GB or RAM, up to 16 cores
[23:26] <reese_> dang 16 cores and only 4gb of ram?
[23:27] <nicomachus> does vmware require guest additions and 3D video enabling like vbox does?
[23:27] <reese_> nico it shouldn't
[23:27] <matthewp2> unless u want it to
[23:27] <welovfree> how many cores should I give to the vm?
[23:28] <k1l> welovfree: could be a slow hdd slowing it down
[23:28] <matthewp2> try 2 or 4 or even 8 if u want to get a bift bigger
[23:28] <reese_> if you're doing 4gb proabbly maybe like 2 or 3
[23:28] <reese_> you dont want to inbalance it

[23:30] <welovfree> reese_, 50% of ram would be enough right?
[23:30] <matthewp2> ya
[23:30] <reese_> definately
[23:30] <reese_> well depends what is 100%
[23:30] <reese_> 4gb?
[23:30] <welovfree> yes
[23:30] <reese_> um 2gb
[23:31] <reese_> put 2 cores wit that
[23:31] <reese_> with*
[23:31] <welovfree> what if i am using 4 cores
[23:31] <reese_> for the vm or the pc?
[23:31] <reese_> if its for the vm it should be ok
[23:32] <welovfree> ok
[23:33] <welovfree> I don't know why the wifi is working very good in the vm than in the host?
[23:33] <welovfree> pages are loading faster
[23:33] <jerbot> I need to run a live OS?  I can't just press a key to get into a terminal before the desktop loads and install the driver from a terminal?
[23:33] <welovfree> reese_, what do you think?
[23:35] <reese_> hmm
[23:36] <reese_> vms are never very good in the vms because you're already using it in your main computer
[23:36] <reese_> if you are using vmware it usually shows that his has an adapter in the wifi settings
[23:36] <reese_> of your main computer i mean
[23:37] <matthewp2> hello
[23:37] <matthewp2> hello
[23:37] <jerbot> reese_: Do I need to get a special kind of livecd for powerpc?
[23:37] <reese_> some vm hosts have it to were you can edit a bandswith
[23:37] <matthewp2> ok the irc works
[23:37] <reese_> for power pc?
[23:37] <reese_> you should just be able to use a usb
[23:37] <welovfree> reese_, I didn't edit a single thing
[23:37] <k1l> jerbot: you need the ppc versions
[23:37] <matthewp2> srly u dont know wht power pc is ^O^
[23:37] <k1l> reese_: please dont just guess answers.
[23:38] <reese_> Did you just install the Os on the vm?
[23:38] <welovfree> reese_, yes
[23:38] <matthewp2> u can use real usbs in vmware/etc
[23:38] <jerbot> USB isn't bootable with the powerbook g4.  So, I have a desktop cd. those work as livecd's, right?
[23:38] <reese_> ooohhh
[23:39] <reese_> is it just a plain OS download?
[23:39] <k1l> jerbot: the .iso work on usb or cd/dvd. but you need the ppc versions for your (very old) apple hardware
[23:39] <matthewp2> no
[23:39] <k1l> !ppc | jerbot
[23:39] <RealKillaz> nicomachus, too bad: SMART support is:     Unavailable - device lacks SMART capability.
[23:39] <matthewp2> u need a software to setup iso for media so u can install it using real usb in vmware/etc softwareure using
[23:39] <matthewp2> windwos 10
[23:40] <nicomachus> RealKillaz: O_o, old hdd?
[23:40] <reese_> yeah
[23:40] <jerbot> the iso files work, but the computer won't recognize the usb as a bootable option
[23:40] <jerbot> i'm using a cd. :P
[23:40] <matthewp2> can u upload a windows 10 iso on mediafire or google druve or etc
[23:40] <jerbot> yeah, I got the PPC release of 14.04 desktop.  Does that work as a livecd?
[23:41] <matthewp2> and publish here
[23:41] <k1l> jerbot: yes
[23:41] <matthewp2> it should work
[23:41] <k1l> matthewp2: ##windows for windows issues please
[23:41] <reese_> welov you still there?
[23:41] <welovfree> reese_, yeah
[23:41] <matthewp2> k
[23:42] <matthewp2> wht site
[23:42] <jerbot> so i'm assuming i just type cli-powerpc not cli-freepowerpc?
[23:42] <jerbot> oh dude, there's a -powerpc install option?  I didn't know that. *doh*
[23:42] <reese_> welov it's going to be slow because of the traffic
[23:42] <jerbot> I can just run the installer that way again. ttyz in an hour?
[23:42] <reese_> with it using your pc internet span
[23:42] <maurice_> what is the best burning program on linux?
[23:43] <k1l> jerbot: please see the wiki sites for g4 specific stuff. that is not usual hardware and you need manual settings most times
[23:43] <nicomachus> maurice_: for burning what?
[23:43] <matthewp2> hmm
[23:43] <maurice_> for linux mint 17.3
[23:43] <ferret_guy> Hey is there anyone here that can help me troubleshoot an openvpn problem?
[23:43] <welovfree> reese_, do you mean when I'm running the vm? the traffic gets busy or what?
[23:43] <matthewp2> u mean the best iso bunner
[23:43] <nicomachus> maurice_: startup disk creator
[23:43] <k1l> !mint | maurice_
[23:43] <matthewp2> ya
[23:43] <maurice_> oke thanks
[23:43] <jerbot> what does the -free- option do?
[23:43] <k1l> maurice_: please use that irc channels that are made autostart in your irc client. this is #ubuntu support
[23:44] <reese_> yeah welov when you are on the internet with your vm, it is using the internet that your pc is recieving
[23:44] <reese_> well some of it
[23:44] <nicomachus> k1l: he wants to create a mint USB from ubuntu.
[23:44] <jerbot> thanks for the help so far, btw. long project
[23:44] <reese_> so thats why its not as fast.
[23:44] <Satyameva> maurice_: bashbrun all CLI but easy to use and no gui
[23:45] <maurice_> thanks
