| Celphish | k1l_: interesting that it says that intel_pstate isn't activated by default, but I know it is, cause it looks like it | 00:00 |
| k1l_ | i dont know if debian includes that. better ask in #debian | 00:00 |
| k1l_ | Celphish: yes, i thought so too | 00:01 |

| Jordan_U | ubuntu815: http://askubuntu.com/questions/567982/kernal-panic-not-syncing-timeout-synchronizing-machine-check-over-cpus-ever For this user at least, the cause appears to have been a faulty CDROM drive. | 00:08 |

| ubuntu815 | Jordan_U I don't have a CDROM drive | 00:08 |
| ubuntu815 | and I found that post as well, thank you | 00:08 |
| ubuntu815 | Had the same kernel panic line, but the rest was reporting CPU Machine Check Exception | 00:09 |
| Jordan_U | ubuntu815: It could be another piece of faulty hardware. Though that error message sounds like it's reporting a result of something else going terribly wrong, similar to saying that the cause of death for a person was "Their heart stopped beating". | 00:09 |

| easyOnMe | k1l_: you mean go to their channel is | 00:24 |
| k1l_ | stickybranches: the guys in #ubuntu+1 or for chating in #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:24 |
| shadytv | GOT THAT MADD 16.04 HYPE!!!! | 00:25 |
| stickybranches | Either unity 8 or gnome shell for me | 00:25 |
| stickybranches | Atm fedora 23 | 00:25 |
| easyOnMe | k1l_: man nobody is answering in #vultr channel | 00:26 |

| yorwos | ubuntu studio | 00:29 |
| stickybranches | ahh | 00:29 |
| stickybranches | :D | 00:29 |
| k1l_ | stickybranches: 16.04 will still have unity7 and xorg as default. | 00:29 |
| stickybranches | Yeah, I know... Since drivers aren't ready yet. | 00:30 |
| stickybranches | Although I will probably just try 16.04 out in a VM. In the end I will probably return to arch | 00:30 |
| l4m8d4 | guys, I have a problem booting my system after moving from mdadm+luks+lvm+btrfs with an unencrypted boot partition to two luks containers (one per disk) and a btrfs-raid1 on top. | 00:30 |
| stickybranches | I like gnome xD | 00:30 |
| yorwos | i wonder if my old amd gpu will work any better with kernel 4 when it finally arrives to my machine | 00:30 |
| k1l_ | stickybranches: ubuntu got gnome aswell. | 00:31 |
| stickybranches | Yeah. Ubuntu gnome, but is it good though? I like the full gnome experience | 00:31 |
| stickybranches | Maybe with the ubuntu undersides, I have used arch for 2-3 months and it was damn good | 00:31 |
| k1l_ | it is the full gnome experience | 00:31 |
| stickybranches | Oh goodie | 00:31 |
| l4m8d4 | Grub can decrypt one volume, which seems enough for it to boot. Then the system starts booting, I get prompted for unlocking the first container, unlock it, and then it complains about lvm being not there and gets stuck... | 00:31 |
| stickybranches | maybe your partitioning is created so LVM can read it.. Like, afaik, lvm is like an extended partition | 00:32 |
| l4m8d4 | I uninstalled lvm already and made sure grub is correctly configured, which seems to be the case since i get to boot. Also, I tried various fstab and crypttab permutations | 00:33 |
| l4m8d4 | stickybranches: no, my system doesn't use lvm anymore. I configured the new partition without lvm | 00:34 |
| l4m8d4 | *partitions | 00:34 |
| stickybranches | You might've messed up the partition table | 00:34 |
| stickybranches | If you changed it, but why did you do it? | 00:34 |
| l4m8d4 | stickybranches: The partition table is fine, the system too, I am writing from a chroot into my system right now... | 00:34 |
| stickybranches | try booting into a live cd and fix it there | 00:34 |
| stickybranches | Ah | 00:34 |
| stickybranches | :D | 00:34 |
| stickybranches | I see | 00:35 |
| l4m8d4 | So everything works perfectly, except it getting stuck | 00:35 |
| stickybranches | do you have a boot partition? | 00:35 |
| l4m8d4 | because the lvm containers are seemingly not found... | 00:35 |
| stickybranches | LVM usually creates a boot partition | 00:35 |
| l4m8d4 | I don't have a boot partition, I am using a fully encrypted setup where only grub is left unencrypted after mbr | 00:36 |
| Gallomimia | very interesting. and similar to my problem | 00:36 |
| l4m8d4 | stickybranches: Like, I have grub installed onto my 2 drives, and then there's only a single partition per drive after tht | 00:36 |
| Gallomimia | you say the system doesn't use LVM | 00:36 |
| Gallomimia | but it complains that LVM is not present? | 00:37 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: Correct! | 00:37 |
| Gallomimia | something's not fully deconfigured | 00:37 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: My installation previously used lvm, but i wanted to get rid of it and changed around th partitions | 00:37 |
| Gallomimia | OR! maybe something in the setup still refers to an LVM volume as root or boot or something | 00:37 |
| stickybranches | but you can mount the partitions correct? | 00:38 |
| Gallomimia | yes your old setup was like mine. except i didn't use btrfs | 00:38 |
| MrMonkey31 | nevermind - I forgot to do apt-get update after running dpkg --add-architecture i386 | 00:38 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: in crypttab, I correctly referenced both entries for the 2 containers. In fstab, I then correctly referenced the btrfs volume | 00:38 |
| Gallomimia | and you're in a chroot. are you putting those two in the right spot? not using old ones | 00:38 |
| l4m8d4 | stickybranches: Yes, I mounted them right now from a usb stick and chrooted into it to get to ssh into my weechat machine :D | 00:38 |
| Gallomimia | why is it asking for lvm then? | 00:39 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: I don't know... I've benn struggling with that for days. | 00:39 |
| Gallomimia | well i been struggling with mine for months so i know how that feels :/ | 00:39 |
| l4m8d4 | After setting up grub (which works), crypttab and fstab, I removed lvm2 and mdadm and moved their configurations files and folders | 00:40 |
| Gallomimia | build a new initrd? | 00:40 |
| l4m8d4 | I always made sure to update-grub, update-initramfs etc. | 00:40 |
| stickybranches | can you update grub? | 00:40 |
| stickybranches | and report if there are errors? | 00:40 |
| l4m8d4 | everything updates fine, no errors, nothing unexpected | 00:40 |
| stickybranches | hmm | 00:40 |
| Gallomimia | yep. you've exhausted my experience | 00:40 |
| l4m8d4 | I've set up numerous encrypted systems up to now, but no fuly encrypted ones | 00:41 |
| Gallomimia | in fact i'm still trying to fix mine. i nuked the /boot partition and need to do all the stuff you just mentioned, but i'm too green and too sleepy :P | 00:41 |
| l4m8d4 | But I dealt with crypttab many times before | 00:41 |
| stickybranches | Its generally good to have a / partition maybe /home and swap | 00:41 |
| Gallomimia | no swap on my system :/ | 00:42 |
| stickybranches | thats about it, but sadly, my fedora also made itself a boot partition automatically :P so ya, but I'd just do three partitions | 00:42 |
| stickybranches | Or just / and swap. | 00:42 |
| stickybranches | But isn't swap useful? | 00:42 |
| stickybranches | depends on your ram | 00:42 |
| Gallomimia | yes, but the thing is swimming in ram | 00:42 |
| stickybranches | I have 6gb | 00:42 |
| stickybranches | but barely swaps | 00:42 |
| Gallomimia | 16 | 00:42 |
| stickybranches | damn | 00:42 |
| stickybranches | Thats how much I would love to have | 00:42 |
| Gallomimia | it's never *HAD* swap | 00:42 |
| l4m8d4 | stickybranches: It has technical reasons why i don't have tht. I basically want atomic snapshots of the WHOLE system. I don't know of any other waay to achieve that with or without btrfs. | 00:42 |
| l4m8d4 | And my laptop don't need swap | 00:43 |
| Gallomimia | i bought another 16 but its mismatched timing and slows the system right down | 00:43 |
| stickybranches | I need 8+ | 00:43 |
| donu7 | Hello, what is the correct way to enable NAT between eth0 and eth1 ? I have a box w/ 2 nics - eth1 is an internal DHCP'd network and eth0 is where my internet connection is coming from but I'm not sure why requests coming in to the DHCP server on eth1 isn't being forwarded thru to eth0. can anyone help? | 00:43 |
| Gallomimia | i'd like to put my swap on an SSD which is split up between dm-cache and swap. but i got more work to do getting it booted | 00:43 |
| l4m8d4 | I am literally so close to getting my dream setup and it seems like nothing helps | 00:43 |
| stickybranches | ip link? | 00:44 |
| Gallomimia | donu7: dhcp requests don't get forwarded. | 00:44 |
| Gallomimia | donu7: the dhcp is running on your 2nic box? | 00:45 |
| l4m8d4 | I must have missed something... Is there any other lvm stuff besides /etc/lvm...? Maybe I didn't move that awayß and btw. I tried installing it again, too, where it then comlains about missing lvmetad after unlocking the first container on boot | 00:45 |
| Gallomimia | and it still complains? | 00:46 |
| l4m8d4 | It complains differently. It seems to not find lvmetad then | 00:46 |
| Gallomimia | ... | 00:46 |
| l4m8d4 | upon boot that is... no errors in the chroot | 00:46 |
| Gallomimia | something is using wrong configs! | 00:47 |
| Gallomimia | the complaint still happens within grub? | 00:47 |
| Gallomimia | or it's booting init already? | 00:47 |
| l4m8d4 | No, the complaint happens after systemd took over and the init has begun | 00:47 |
| Gallomimia | uh. init, systemd whatever :P | 00:47 |
| l4m8d4 | and after it asks for unlocking my first drive | 00:48 |
| Gallomimia | hm. i want to say it's in the initramfs then | 00:48 |
| Gallomimia | a concept i understand poorly at best | 00:48 |
| donu7 | @stickybranches ip link - http://paste.ubuntu.com/14684273/ @Gallomimia dhcp is running on the box in question - it has 3 nics 2 of which are on the internal network (10.0.0.0/24) and eth0 is connected to the internet via 10.10.10.0/24 now, i'm 99% sure i'm missing something fundamental but I'm wondering if its possible for the machines that are in the internal network to route thru the dhcp box to the internet | 00:48 |
| axk4545_ | hello. do you know if what the most recent kernel is on ubuntu? | 00:48 |
| axk4545_ | *what | 00:49 |
| k1l_ | axk4545_: for what release? | 00:49 |
| nacc | axk4545_: what release of ubuntu? | 00:49 |
| Gallomimia | donu7: what did you use to configure the NAT? | 00:49 |
| Gallomimia | and yes. it's possible | 00:49 |
| donu7 | @Gallomimia I haven't configured anything to do the actual NAT-ing | 00:50 |
| Gallomimia | even easy. the system settings -> network have a bridge connections option that works pretty decently | 00:50 |
| Gallomimia | has a few loops it will throw i think. been awhile since i done it, and i don't have ubuntu running in front of me right now | 00:50 |
| Gallomimia | !nat | 00:50 |
| Gallomimia | uh.... | 00:50 |
| l4m8d4 | Is there something to completely rebuild initramfs? Like, even more than 'update-initramfs -u -k all'? Maybe there is really some lvm stuff lurking around from my previous setup | 00:50 |
| axk4545_ | k1l_: Xubuntu 14.04 LTS. I need it to run VMWare. | 00:50 |
| Gallomimia | uh.... delete it? | 00:51 |
| Gallomimia | guess i should write down that command and investigate | 00:51 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: And then update the initramfs to make it rebbuild? | 00:51 |
| donu7 | I see, thank you @Gallomimia | 00:51 |
| Gallomimia | l4m8d4: no idea. i'm guessing. perhaps renaming is better than deleting | 00:53 |
| Gallomimia | donu7: did you get it working already? i'm sure there's a page and a link with concise steps | 00:53 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: That's what i thought, too :D But I have backups in case | 00:53 |
| donu7 | I'm looking at it now @Gallomimia — i've found some ubuntu articles on it but I have another set of questions now. It looks like the way to have NAT be done is to bridge the 2 nics on the DHCP box but that makes me wonder — I have a DHCP server on both the internal network and on the external network. If I bridge eth0/1 on the "gateway" between the 2 networks, is that going to cause issues where both DHCP servers will try to assign addresses to the two netwo | 00:55 |
| Psychot1cJ | hello | 00:55 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: What file or folder is it, that makes up the initramfs? I am quite sure it is in the boot folder somewhere... | 00:56 |
| Psychot1cJ | anyone using a raspberry pi? | 00:56 |
| Gallomimia | donu7: dhcp requests don't get forwarded | 00:56 |
| Gallomimia | and yes. it's very very bad to have 2 different dhcp servers on the same network. usually gets you kicked off | 00:56 |
| Gallomimia | l4m8d4: /etc/initramfs-tools i think | 00:57 |
| Gallomimia | makes up the initramfs? | 00:57 |
| Gallomimia | you mean, creates, or what folders are in it? | 00:57 |
| cfoch | hello | 00:58 |
| Gallomimia | hi | 00:58 |
| cfoch | is gradle the same of gradlew ? | 00:58 |
| cfoch | http://developer.android.com/intl/es/tools/building/building-cmdline.html | 00:58 |
| Gallomimia | i don't think that's on topic here pal | 00:59 |
| Pinkamena_D | Jordan_U: 14.04 | 01:00 |
| cfoch | I refer to the gradle on Ubuntu repos | 01:00 |
| Pinkamena_D | trying to assemble on initramfs but I get permission denied | 01:00 |
| cfoch | if this is the same of the gradlew command or not | 01:00 |
| Pinkamena_D | any way to sudo on busybox? | 01:00 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: Ok I think I made a mistake. I deleted the initramfs with update-initramfs -d. I tried to recreate it afterwards with update-initramfs -c, but it doesn't do anything and the initramfs doesn't get recreated | 01:02 |
| === bruno is now known as Guest97972 | ||
| Gallomimia | uh | 01:04 |
| Gallomimia | so how does it boot?! | 01:04 |
| l4m8d4 | Anyone know how to create a new initramfs if 'update-initramfs -c -k all' doesn't work? | 01:04 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: Well, I guess it doesn't, but I didn't reboot yet | 01:05 |
| Ninkadas | Hello people | 01:05 |
| Ninkadas | I dont know if this is the correct place to ask but I need some help | 01:05 |
| Gallomimia | !ask | 01:05 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 01:05 |
| l4m8d4 | Strange that it doesn't throw an error, with the '-v' flas it just says it has nothing to do... | 01:06 |
| Ninkadas | Im new to linux | 01:06 |
| Gallomimia | Ninkadas: you are using ubuntu today? | 01:06 |
| Ninkadas | I dont really know much, I've been using it for like 3 days and today I wanted to use a remote keyboard | 01:06 |
| Gallomimia | like.... bluetooth? | 01:06 |
| Ninkadas | It uses bluetooth and I already have a bluetooth dongle plus bluetooth installed | 01:06 |
| Ninkadas | But I dont really know how to connect | 01:06 |
| Ninkadas | I've managed to get the BLuetooth code | 01:07 |
| Gallomimia | have you used the bluetooth dongle to connect to something else before? you know it works? | 01:07 |
| Ninkadas | Not really | 01:07 |
| Ninkadas | I've been using windows for years | 01:07 |
| Gallomimia | cause my experience with bluetooth and ubuntu is tough to find drivers | 01:07 |
| Bashing-om | l4m8d4: maybe something like : 'sudo update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.35-28-generic ' If your previous kernel works you can rebuild the later initrd.img. e.g. (change the kernel version as appropriate) . | 01:07 |
| Gallomimia | so. keep that in mind as you try to solve the problem | 01:07 |
| Gallomimia | Ninkadas: have you seen this page yet: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 01:08 |
| l4m8d4 | Bashing-om: well, I'm already root. But shouldn't "-k all" just build it for all kernels? And "-u" doesn't do it for me sadly, because I have no initramfs to update. | 01:09 |
| Ninkadas | Yeah | 01:09 |
| Ninkadas | I got the device code | 01:09 |
| l4m8d4 | Will the system be able to boot without initramfsß | 01:09 |
| l4m8d4 | *? | 01:09 |
| Ninkadas | But when I dont understand the command that comes after | 01:09 |
| Ninkadas | DC:2C:26:C3:89:CA so this is the command | 01:09 |
| Ninkadas | sudo ./test-device trusted XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX yes sorry, this one | 01:10 |
| Ninkadas | All I have to do Is replace the XX.XX with the device code RIght? | 01:10 |
| Gallomimia | Ninkadas: oops. it looks like the info on that page is up to 6 years old | 01:10 |
| Gallomimia | l4m8d4: no. | 01:10 |
| Gallomimia | Ninkadas: this page might be more useful? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bluetooth | 01:11 |
| Ninkadas | I think I already installed a program from the Ubuntu Store | 01:12 |
| Gallomimia | it appears to have a graphical method of doing this | 01:12 |
| l4m8d4 | Well, I just thought, if it tells me it has nothing to do when I reuest a new initramfs, maybe it doesn't need one :D | 01:12 |
| Ninkadas | But I Dont know where 2 find it. (Sorry for my dumb questions, I really dont know much about LInux) | 01:12 |
| Gallomimia | l4m8d4: the "init" that starts lives on the initramfs | 01:12 |
| Gallomimia | Ninkadas: that page i linked most recently shows a bluetooth icon in the topright that you can click | 01:13 |
| Gallomimia | !bluetooth | Ninkadas | 01:13 |
| ubottu | Ninkadas: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 01:13 |
| Gallomimia | booo | 01:13 |
| Ninkadas | Thanks! I'll check it out | 01:13 |
| Ninkadas | Oh my ubuntu is 1.10.2 | 01:15 |
| Ninkadas | DOes that change anything? | 01:15 |
| Gallomimia | that's the first link i sent | 01:15 |
| Gallomimia | yes. because you missed a number, i now assume you're using an OS published in 2001 | 01:15 |
| Ninkadas | Oh.. | 01:15 |
| Gallomimia | the first number is 14? | 01:15 |
| dotpixis | Ninkadas: try this command and tell us what it outputs "uname -a" | 01:16 |
| Ninkadas | 4.1.15-v7+ | 01:17 |
| dotpixis | Ninkadas: try this "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 01:18 |
| Gallomimia | lots of text spits out | 01:18 |
| Gallomimia | then it asks you a question | 01:18 |
| Gallomimia | none of care about the text except the question: how many updates is it about to install? | 01:18 |
| Ninkadas | Its updating | 01:19 |
| Gallomimia | nope it's just checking if updates are needed | 01:19 |
| axk4545_ | I just installed xubuntu on a secondary hdd. my primary hdd also has grub and Fedora installed. How do I make that grub the bootloader and remove the second one? | 01:19 |
| dotpixis | axk4545_: why do you need to delete grub? how much space are you saving? | 01:19 |
| Bashing-om | l4m8d4: 'Nother thought ' update-initramfs -vu -k $(uname -r) |& tee /tmp/initrd.log ' see then if the generated file has any hints ? | 01:20 |
| Gallomimia | axk4545_: your motherboard and bios decide which drive boots up first | 01:20 |
| axk4545_ | dotpixis: it isn't space? it is having two bootloaders won't they conflict. | 01:20 |
| Gallomimia | no | 01:20 |
| === HazWard is now known as zz_HazWard | ||
| dotpixis | as Gallomimia said | 01:20 |
| Ninkadas | So, My update is gonna take 15 minutes 2 download | 01:21 |
| Ninkadas | 54 | 01:21 |
| axk4545_ | Gallomimia: can I remove the second one? | 01:21 |
| Gallomimia | you can | 01:21 |
| dotpixis | Ninkadas: you're upgrading your distro, it should solve most problems | 01:21 |
| Gallomimia | but its usually written to the first sector ofthe drive | 01:21 |
| l4m8d4 | Bashing-om: I just tried again specifying the exact kernel. It worked now, I have an initramfs again :D - It seems like it can't figure it out on its own when creating a new one to determine all the needed arguments | 01:21 |
| Gallomimia | dotpixis: actually she's just upgrading all the software | 01:21 |
| dotpixis | Gallomimia: rly? | 01:22 |
| dotpixis | okay then | 01:22 |
| l4m8d4 | Well, now that I got a new initrams, I think it's time to try once again if it helped.... wish me luck - I should be back in a few mins | 01:22 |
| Gallomimia | luck | 01:23 |
| Gallomimia | dotpixis: a full release upgrade the command is do-release-upgrade | 01:23 |
| Bashing-om | l4m8d4: :) ; sometimes specifying the target helps the system bunches . | 01:23 |
| l4m8d4 | I forgot I don't have to exit since this runs on a server :D well I am afk for a few minuted :D | 01:24 |
| Gallomimia | and i've heard it said in here that clean installs are better than do-release-upgrade | 01:24 |
| dotpixis | clean installs are cleaner... | 01:24 |
| DirtyCajun | why does ssh not recognize hostname for the sake of ssh? | 01:26 |
| k1l_ | DirtyCajun: like where? | 01:28 |
| DirtyCajun | like... im on box 192.168.1.10 and i ssh to cajunserver nothing happens. but i ssh to 192.168.1.12 and it does work and when logged in its user@cajunserver | 01:29 |
| l4m8d4 | I'm back... and it didn't work sadly | 01:30 |
| k1l_ | DirtyCajun: does it use that name in the network, too? | 01:30 |
| l4m8d4 | it still does the same thing: It boots, let's me unlock the first container, and starts complaining | 01:31 |
| DirtyCajun | it should? /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname are both set for that | 01:31 |
| l4m8d4 | "cryptsetup: lvm is not available" | 01:31 |
| Bashing-om | l4m8d4: A shot in the dark. System sstill looking for swap as encrypted ? What returns ' swapon --summary ' ? | 01:33 |
| l4m8d4 | Bashing-om: I don't have swap on my system. My old setup didn't have it either. | 01:34 |
| l4m8d4 | Bashing-om: I only have these 2 containers with a btrfs-raid1-parity in them, nothing else | 01:34 |
| max3 | is utf-8 not the right encoding to display cyrillic characters in terminal? | 01:34 |
| Dylan____ | Can someone give me assistance please? | 01:35 |
| Dylan____ | If your willing? | 01:35 |
| l4m8d4 | Bashing-om: I DID have lvm on my old partition setup, however, but if it isn't properly deconfigured, I have no clue what I have missed... | 01:35 |
| l4m8d4 | !ask | 01:35 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 01:35 |
| === zz_HazWard is now known as HazWard | ||
| l4m8d4 | I guess now at least I know it's not from the initramfs | 01:36 |
| Dylan____ | I am trying to install ubuntu in dualboot format i have downloaded and installed windows 10 IN [32bit] on my mac and now i want to dualboot with ubuntu problem is when i boot ubuntu it says it has no operating system and someone on the fourm said something not even helpful wbout OSX when i clearly have stated i do not have os x el captian on this macbook | 01:37 |
| Dylan____ | because i have wiped it clean and only installed windows 10 and i said i would only want to dualboot windows 10 and ubuntu together but clearly i cant cause it doesnt see the OS | 01:37 |
| l4m8d4 | The sad thing is, it's probably such an easy solution if one knows what he/she/its is doing, but I don'T! :/ | 01:37 |
| l4m8d4 | Dylan____: Do you have 2 seperate partitions for the Oses? | 01:38 |
| l4m8d4 | I stumbled over something: in /boot/grub/i386-pc/ there are many .mod files, among them also a "lvm.mod" file. Is that normal? I mean, there are many modules in there, it could well be just normal grub stuff it just skips it it's not there | 01:41 |
| Dylan____ | Nope | 01:42 |
| Dylan____ | I only have the one | 01:42 |
| Dylan____ | 250gigs | 01:42 |
| k1l_ | DirtyCajun: is avahi-daemon installed? | 01:42 |
| l4m8d4 | Dylan____: So you chose to install ubuntu alongside windows 10 or something, right? | 01:43 |
| Bashing-om | l4m8d4: Checking my install for the .mod file . | 01:43 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: you're not talking about the same thing as l4m8d4. a hard drive is a physical thing. a partition is an invented slice of that hard drive | 01:43 |
| Dylan____ | I have installed windows 10 and i would like to use ubuntu | 01:44 |
| Dylan____ | On it | 01:44 |
| Dylan____ | So dualboot | 01:44 |
| Gallomimia | an imaginary concept. the computersays it's the partition, soit is. | 01:44 |
| Gallomimia | you MUST have two separate partitions. | 01:44 |
| Gallomimia | period | 01:44 |
| DirtyCajun | k1l_: it is not | 01:44 |
| Gallomimia | the ubuntu installer will do it up automagically if you pick that option | 01:44 |
| Bashing-om | l4m8d4: Nope that file is default " -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6768 Jan 5 21:07 /boot/grub/i386-pc/lvm.mod " . | 01:45 |
| Dylan____ | Yes problem is when i put the cd in and reboot it says no os found | 01:45 |
| l4m8d4 | I was asking because I thought I saw something in the past where you could install ubuntu into it's own folder on windws basically, avoiding a second partition. But that is very strange | 01:45 |
| Gallomimia | holding option to get the boot select screen? | 01:45 |
| Dylan____ | Thats wubi | 01:45 |
| Dylan____ | Wubi isnt supported in windows 8 up | 01:45 |
| Gallomimia | l4m8d4: that's called cyg-win | 01:45 |
| Gallomimia | oh wubi too? | 01:45 |
| l4m8d4 | Bashing-om: Thank you for checking! So this shouldn't be the problem. | 01:45 |
| k1l_ | DirtyCajun: then install it | 01:45 |
| Dylan____ | Wubi u can dualboot | 01:45 |
| k1l_ | dont use wubi | 01:46 |
| Dylan____ | But since windows 10 cant do it | 01:46 |
| Dylan____ | Only windows 7 can use wubi 8 and up cant | 01:46 |
| Gallomimia | install ubuntu | 01:46 |
| DirtyCajun | k1l_: whats it do? if it just registers hostnames why can i not put it in a static list somewhere | 01:46 |
| k1l_ | and even windows7 will break with wubi. so dont use that | 01:46 |
| Dylan____ | Wait let me go get my macbook | 01:46 |
| Dylan____ | Im gonna put my ubuntu cd in | 01:46 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: No I'm not talking about cygwin. I mean something else. It would also have its own kernel in there, very strange stuff. Don't know if it ever was or is still common, though | 01:46 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: you have a separate computer to browse and irc? | 01:47 |
| Dylan____ | I got my ipad im using for irc | 01:48 |
| Dylan____ | So im inserted my ubuntu cd ill click the windows or efi boot | 01:49 |
| Gallomimia | good. its nearly impossible to fix problems with only one system and you're rebooting | 01:49 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: how did you boot it? put disk in? push power and hold option? | 01:49 |
| Dylan____ | Yeah | 01:49 |
| Dylan____ | Its given me an option to windows or efi boot | 01:49 |
| Gallomimia | pick the option that's not-windows i guess? | 01:49 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 01:50 |
| Dylan____ | Said something about efi wasnt found | 01:50 |
| Dylan____ | got into gnu grub screen | 01:50 |
| Gallomimia | yeah. you were supposed to burn a disc that had no efi i thought? | 01:50 |
| Dylan____ | I pressed install ubuntu | 01:50 |
| Gallomimia | oh | 01:50 |
| Gallomimia | good | 01:50 |
| Gallomimia | now it gives options? | 01:50 |
| Gallomimia | or... keyboard setup first | 01:50 |
| Dylan____ | Just waiting for it go to ubuntu purple screen first | 01:51 |
| Gallomimia | ah yes that takes a bit | 01:51 |
| Dylan____ | Yup | 01:51 |
| Gallomimia | especially from cd or usb | 01:51 |
| Dylan____ | Usb would be faster | 01:51 |
| Gallomimia | no idea. are your usb ports 3.0? | 01:51 |
| Dylan____ | Idk what my mac ports are | 01:51 |
| Gallomimia | mine arn't. but the lappy was made in 2010 | 01:52 |
| Dylan____ | Yeah | 01:52 |
| Dylan____ | I think there 2.0 | 01:52 |
| Dylan____ | Its booting now give it a second | 01:52 |
| Gallomimia | anyway, probably the dvd is faster since it's connected via sata. no idea. doesn't matter now | 01:52 |
| Dylan____ | Ok im did the option to install ubuntu | 01:53 |
| Gallomimia | how many choices now? | 01:53 |
| Gallomimia | oh it's at "install or try" ? | 01:53 |
| Dylan____ | Install and try | 01:53 |
| Dylan____ | Im gonna press install | 01:53 |
| Gallomimia | yep | 01:53 |
| nny | is it possible to setup 2 wifi adapters? i have one wireless card built in the other is a usb wireless adapter. | 01:53 |
| Gallomimia | nny sure is | 01:54 |
| Dylan____ | says no operating systems are detected | 01:54 |
| Dylan____ | Hmm | 01:54 |
| Gallomimia | wait why? | 01:54 |
| Dylan____ | Idk | 01:54 |
| Gallomimia | where is it at? | 01:54 |
| Dylan____ | What you mean | 01:54 |
| Gallomimia | well, it's running something | 01:54 |
| Dylan____ | My windows is on drive | 01:55 |
| Gallomimia | it's booted into the installer. it's looking for OS | 01:55 |
| Dylan____ | As in my 250gig | 01:55 |
| Gallomimia | yeah. but it doesn't seeit | 01:55 |
| Dylan____ | How can i make it? | 01:55 |
| Gallomimia | i'm not sure. you might be better off manually partitioning | 01:55 |
| Dylan____ | Oh:/ | 01:55 |
| Gallomimia | anyone know why the ubuntu installer won't see the win10 install already existing? | 01:55 |
| Dylan____ | Never done that before | 01:55 |
| Gallomimia | let's wait a second... | 01:55 |
| Gallomimia | you got a fullscreen of stuff there? 4 different options maybe? | 01:56 |
| Dylan____ | Ill boot back into windows | 01:56 |
| Gallomimia | no wait | 01:56 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 01:56 |
| Gallomimia | what options does it give you? scan again? | 01:56 |
| Dylan____ | Its got 4 options erase disk and install ubuntu encrypt the new ubuntu installation for security use lvm or something else | 01:56 |
| Gallomimia | yeah that top option is precisely what you DO NOT want to do | 01:57 |
| Dylan____ | Even though i have windows installed | 01:57 |
| Dylan____ | Yup | 01:57 |
| Gallomimia | there's nothing to tell it to scan again? | 01:57 |
| Gallomimia | hit the bottom option then | 01:57 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 01:57 |
| Dylan____ | Ok here is some random thing | 01:57 |
| Dylan____ | Theres a /dev/sda thing i dont know and free space 250059 | 01:58 |
| Gallomimia | that's your hard drive | 01:58 |
| Dylan____ | But that 250059 will erase my windows 10 etc | 01:58 |
| Gallomimia | 250gigs | 01:58 |
| Dylan____ | Yeah | 01:58 |
| Gallomimia | yeah don't do that. | 01:58 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 01:58 |
| Gallomimia | you can add partitions. resize that one, and add a few more | 01:58 |
| Gallomimia | before it writes changes, it will warn you and ask "do you want to write these changes" don't do that yet | 01:58 |
| Dylan____ | Hold what you want me to do? | 01:59 |
| Gallomimia | resize that first partition | 01:59 |
| Dylan____ | Im stuck idk if i click the free space | 01:59 |
| Gallomimia | which should be called sda1 | 01:59 |
| Dylan____ | Its called free space | 01:59 |
| Gallomimia | the freespace ought to be really small | 01:59 |
| Gallomimia | like 1meg | 01:59 |
| Dylan____ | Nah | 01:59 |
| Dylan____ | Its 250g | 01:59 |
| Gallomimia | it's not 250g of free space | 01:59 |
| Dylan____ | It is | 01:59 |
| Dylan____ | That what is says it is | 01:59 |
| Gallomimia | no. it has win10 on it | 01:59 |
| Dylan____ | Yes i know that it has win 10 installed on thst | 02:00 |
| Gallomimia | it says 250 is all free? no other partitions | 02:00 |
| Dylan____ | No others just that | 02:00 |
| Gallomimia | wow. | 02:00 |
| Dylan____ | If you want me i can take some picture | 02:00 |
| Dylan____ | And show you | 02:00 |
| Gallomimia | no i believe you | 02:00 |
| Dylan____ | Yeah | 02:00 |
| Gallomimia | just that... i don't believe ubuntu :P | 02:00 |
| Gallomimia | cause you just booted it to windows right? | 02:00 |
| beepie | euuugggh windows... | 02:00 |
| Dylan____ | What i did is | 02:01 |
| Gallomimia | on a macbook. | 02:01 |
| Dylan____ | When i burned the windows 10 | 02:01 |
| Dylan____ | I erased partitons | 02:01 |
| Dylan____ | And put windows 10 on that whole partiton | 02:01 |
| Gallomimia | heh. you need to learn to image your usb keys as installer dvd's | 02:01 |
| Dylan____ | Thats the only drive i got | 02:01 |
| Gallomimia | you told me earlier you have a few usb sticks | 02:01 |
| Dylan____ | Has a dev sda and 250059mb | 02:01 |
| beepie | Gallomimia, you can use windows on macs | 02:02 |
| Gallomimia | sure | 02:02 |
| Gallomimia | ever since intel cpu's | 02:02 |
| Gallomimia | native install. giv'er | 02:02 |
| beepie | Gallomimia, but it's imho just as easy to install linux on them (depends sometimes on distro) | 02:02 |
| Dylan____ | Yes but problem is that i found out my mac needs to not have uefi so my nvidia works probably | 02:02 |
| Dylan____ | I found it out from this guy who has the same mac as me | 02:02 |
| Dylan____ | And he ran kubuntu | 02:02 |
| Gallomimia | beepie: actually it's not just as easy. bootloaders become an issue | 02:02 |
| tyrion2 | HELP why is ubuntus python 3.4 pyvenv broken | 02:02 |
| Dylan____ | He says install ubuntu from cd no uefi | 02:02 |
| tyrion2 | this is so annoying | 02:02 |
| Dylan____ | So what do i do:/ | 02:03 |
| tyrion2 | how do you get the ubuntu people to fix that? | 02:03 |
| beepie | Gallomimia, actually just renaming the .efi to bootx64.efi to the standard boot locations works here for different distros | 02:03 |
| Dylan____ | Resize partitons in windoes? | 02:03 |
| beepie | Gallomimia, (efibootmgr for mac is not needed) | 02:03 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: that might be best | 02:03 |
| beepie | Gallomimia, i've done it :p | 02:03 |
| Dylan____ | And remember i downloaded a copy of windows 10 as 32bit burned it installed it wiped the cd and installed ubuntu x64 | 02:03 |
| Dylan____ | Anyways what should i do now ill reboot into windows | 02:04 |
| Gallomimia | but when you boot into windows look and check what filesystem it's formatted your drive to | 02:04 |
| l4m8d4 | Dylan____: Which ubuntu version is your CD? Formatting on windows might be a good idea. Try to shrink your windows partition and make a new, unformatted one after that. | 02:04 |
| beepie | Dylan____, what seems to be the problem? | 02:04 |
| Dylan____ | My ubuntu version is 14.04.3 on the cd | 02:04 |
| Gallomimia | l4m8d4: trying to shrink the windows partition is what we're up to | 02:04 |
| DirtyCajun | Why isnt network manager installed by default on 15.10 | 02:04 |
| Dylan____ | Im gonna reboot into windows | 02:04 |
| beepie | it's possible to use gparted live iso even with macs | 02:05 |
| l4m8d4 | Dylan____: You could try a 15.10 CD, newer is better :D | 02:05 |
| Gallomimia | l4m8d4, beepie, the partition manager in the ubuntu installer shows his drive as all free space | 02:05 |
| xangua | DirtyCajun: it is | 02:05 |
| k1l_ | DirtyCajun: it is on the desktops | 02:05 |
| Gallomimia | when he's very certain it's all dedicated to win10 | 02:05 |
| DirtyCajun | on server | 02:05 |
| beepie | maybe that's because he's using apple's dumb hybrid mbr-gpt thing, that is crap | 02:05 |
| k1l_ | DirtyCajun: you dont need network manager on a server | 02:05 |
| Dylan____ | That 250gig is all dedicAted to win10 | 02:05 |
| * beepie thinks Dylan____ is using' "bootcamp" | 02:05 | |
| Gallomimia | DirtyCajun: cause you're expected to use /etc/interfaces | 02:05 |
| beepie | bootcamp is crap! | 02:05 |
| Dylan____ | Im not using bootcamp | 02:05 |
| Dylan____ | I dont have os x | 02:05 |
| Dylan____ | I uninstalled os x off this mac | 02:06 |
| Gallomimia | you want it that way? | 02:06 |
| DirtyCajun | so adding a nameserver to /etc/resolv.conf is correct on the server? | 02:06 |
| beepie | Dylan____, bootcamp is a tool in OsX to help partitiong, and then there are bootcamp "windows drivers" ... | 02:06 |
| l4m8d4 | Gallomimia: I read that, but I don't think windows can be installed onto a whole drive. I think the instaler would make a whole sized partition and install onto that. | 02:06 |
| DirtyCajun | and you can have as many nameservers as you want right? | 02:06 |
| beepie | Dylan____, it should be seeing space used up | 02:06 |
| Dylan____ | Right what do i do | 02:06 |
| Dylan____ | Im in windows | 02:06 |
| l4m8d4 | beepie: you might be onto something with the custom partition table there. | 02:06 |
| beepie | Dylan____, even if you used "bootcamp windows drivers" which should not be an issue | 02:06 |
| Dylan____ | Want me to run partitons? | 02:06 |
| Gallomimia | find the drive utility and ask it whats up | 02:06 |
| Gallomimia | yes | 02:06 |
| Gallomimia | how many partitions? what filesystem are they | 02:07 |
| Dylan____ | Just got into windows disk managmwmt | 02:07 |
| Dylan____ | Disk 0 500mb system reserved 232.40 gb NTFS C: | 02:07 |
| beepie | Dylan____, use a fdisk tool and create a protective MBR in the dosmbr table | 02:07 |
| Dylan____ | So i got system reserved and C: | 02:08 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: do what beepie says, cause he's smarter than me. | 02:08 |
| Dylan____ | Both as ntfs | 02:08 |
| beepie | Dylan____, that's what i think Ubuntu installer is looking for, so instead of it lookingat the GPT table, it sees there's nothing in hte MBR table | 02:08 |
| Dylan____ | Okay?? | 02:08 |
| Gallomimia | beepie: you might need to tell him what an fdisk tool is | 02:08 |
| Dylan____ | I know the command fdisk | 02:08 |
| Gallomimia | (and i'm watching cause i wanna know too) | 02:09 |
| Gallomimia | in windows? | 02:09 |
| Dylan____ | what do you want me to do beepie | 02:09 |
| dotpixis | Gallomimia: don't say the name that shall not be named | 02:09 |
| beepie | Dylan____, i tihnk the ubuntu installer is ignoring GPT because it is first looking for a MBR table, simply (maybe) if you create a "protective" entry for GPT, it might force the installer to look at the gpt table | 02:10 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:10 |
| basil2x | CP/M? | 02:10 |
| Dylan____ | How can i do that? | 02:10 |
| beepie | Dylan____, GPT allows this MBR table to exists -- so that any dosmbr tool can prevent from doing damage.. | 02:10 |
| Dylan____ | Im so noobish at this | 02:10 |
| beepie | Dylan____, not sure but I know it's common to see on gpt drives | 02:10 |
| Dylan____ | Want me to run cmd? | 02:11 |
| beepie | Dylan____, my suggestion is of course to backup your current data from the drive, and try to creete that dosmbr entry -- | 02:11 |
| beepie | Dylan____, possibly cfdisk can do it | 02:11 |
| Dylan____ | So if i run cfdisk? | 02:11 |
| Dylan____ | Not even a command | 02:11 |
| beepie | Dylan____, i'll check something | 02:11 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: before you go any further, are there any documents on this computer you can't afford to lose? | 02:12 |
| Dylan____ | No documents | 02:12 |
| Gallomimia | k | 02:12 |
| Dylan____ | I just installed just these drivers | 02:12 |
| Dylan____ | On windows 10 | 02:12 |
| Dylan____ | I dont have the iso for windows 10 but i can get it off microsofts website | 02:12 |
| Gallomimia | as long as it's stuff you can redownload, no worries | 02:12 |
| beepie | Dylan____, must be "EE" code for GPT, (cfdisk) -- you can use any dosmbr tool, create one partition to fill the entire drive and set the "partition ID" code to be "EE" -- EE means "GPT" | 02:12 |
| Dylan____ | So windows 10 will be wiped? | 02:12 |
| Gallomimia | you have the burned DVD soit will be fine | 02:12 |
| Dylan____ | Nnonono listem | 02:13 |
| Gallomimia | no. but if you mess up it might be | 02:13 |
| BinaryDinner | what are packages? | 02:13 |
| Dylan____ | Let me walk you what i did with the isos | 02:13 |
| Gallomimia | !package | 02:13 |
| ubottu | You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !KPackageKit, !Muon, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 30000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 02:13 |
| beepie | Dylan____, with tools like cfdisk or fdisk, only the dosmbr table should be touched | 02:13 |
| Dylan____ | First i installed windows 10 then i went to my other laptop and erased the windows 10 bootable iso | 02:13 |
| beepie | Dylan____, as i said just in case you should backup any user data prior | 02:13 |
| Dylan____ | Then i rewrited ubuntu on it | 02:13 |
| Gallomimia | BinaryDinner: it's like software, but with all the manuals, install scripts, and setup files you need to get it going easy | 02:13 |
| Dylan____ | Im gonna get windows 32bit iso and save it on my flash drives brb | 02:14 |
| beepie | Dylan____, are you talking about a usb drive? | 02:14 |
| Gallomimia | oh a dvd-rw | 02:14 |
| Dylan____ | Talking about. A single dvd | 02:14 |
| Dylan____ | I used | 02:14 |
| BinaryDinner | Gallomimia: is it possible for a package to be any file? for example just a text file that contains "Hello." string | 02:14 |
| Gallomimia | how many flash drives you got? | 02:14 |
| Dylan____ | I used a dvd to write windows then when it finshed i erased it | 02:14 |
| Dylan____ | I got heaps | 02:14 |
| Gallomimia | BinaryDinner: i don't think so. packages come from servers on the internet. most of them are packaged up by the ubuntu people | 02:15 |
| Dylan____ | Im just using one right now to download windows 10 32bkt | 02:15 |
| beepie | Dylan____, you cant install onto the same installer medium. So if you're trying to install Ubuntu on a usb where that usb is already running the installer then that won't work | 02:15 |
| Dylan____ | Sigh | 02:15 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: definitely learn to use flash drives for the same thing. not important now | 02:15 |
| Dylan____ | Did i not tell you that i had burned a windows iso to the dvd and erased it? | 02:15 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: No, a package is a tarball containing a copy of the file system that gets extracted upon installation | 02:15 |
| Dylan____ | And also did i tell you that one i erased it i installed ubuntu on it using imgburn | 02:16 |
| beepie | Dylan____, you were telling me you see no space used when it should be full | 02:16 |
| Gallomimia | no, i usually assume burned disks can't be erased | 02:16 |
| === mstfa is now known as mstfacmly | ||
| beepie | Dylan____, but you never told me which disk you were looking at | 02:16 |
| Dylan____ | Alright listen | 02:16 |
| BinaryDinner | LambdaComplex: so this file system have to have minimum one executable or library? | 02:16 |
| beepie | Dylan____, i gave you a fix, why not try it? | 02:16 |
| Dylan____ | I put my cd in that has ubuntu on it i boot it up says no osfound go to partiton manager whats there Oh 2500mbs??? | 02:16 |
| Umeaboy | Hi! | 02:16 |
| beepie | Dylan____, (you can even try to use the gparted live iso) | 02:16 |
| Dylan____ | I dont know what you guys are telling me | 02:17 |
| Dylan____ | Maybe walk me through the steps? | 02:17 |
| Umeaboy | If I have an issue with the mouse pointer in 15.10, what package do I make a bugreport for? | 02:17 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: Well, it's not gonna have just one file at the root level. .deb packages, if i recall correctly, have a data tarball and...something else that I can't remember the name of | 02:17 |
| LambdaComplex | Heck, gimme a sec | 02:17 |
| squinty | BinaryDinner, in terminal type ls /var/cache/apt/archives/ that will display a listing of all packages (*.deb files) currently located on your system. additionally you can add others by using the techniques that Gallaomimia posted previously | 02:17 |
| Umeaboy | It disappears after some time. | 02:17 |
| Umeaboy | No special settings. | 02:17 |
| Umeaboy | I have a Asus N550JK laptop. | 02:18 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: data.tar.gz and control.tar.gz | 02:18 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: alright. the first thing you need to do is what beepie said about the GPT and MBR conflict. you can't do that while it's booted from the HD | 02:18 |
| Umeaboy | It uses hybrid graphics. | 02:18 |
| Umeaboy | Optimus. | 02:18 |
| Umeaboy | No other problem besides that. | 02:18 |
| Dylan____ | So what os do you want me to boot into windows or ubuntu | 02:18 |
| Gallomimia | well, can't be windows | 02:18 |
| lotuspsychje | Umeaboy: did you try to create another user and test there? | 02:18 |
| Gallomimia | cause it needs to modify the disk windows runs from | 02:18 |
| Dylan____ | Problem is if i use ubuntu i have no network cause i need to install ubuntu perm and install dkms and the b43 | 02:18 |
| Umeaboy | lotuspsychje: Nope. | 02:18 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: And the data.tar.gz contains a folder called . which contains a copy of the filesystem. So, in the case of the package I'm looking at, it has folders for usr, sbin, etc, and var | 02:19 |
| lotuspsychje | Umeaboy: try first before bug please | 02:19 |
| Umeaboy | Right. | 02:19 |
| Gallomimia | so your choices are the installer, which seems to be having trouble, or a LiveUSB key with either ubuntu or gparted on it | 02:19 |
| beepie | Gallomimia, Dylan____ dosmbr and gpt can co-exists, of course MBR would be having nothing but a special | 02:19 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: And the contents of _those_ folders get extracted to the action /usr/, /sbin/, /etc/, and /var/ upon installation | 02:19 |
| Dylan____ | I can get gparted on a usb | 02:19 |
| beepie | Gallomimia, Dylan____ "" MBR entry called an "EE" GPT entry" "" | 02:19 |
| Dylan____ | Is there a link? | 02:19 |
| Gallomimia | yeah | 02:19 |
| beepie | Gallomimia, Dylan____ ^^ | 02:19 |
| LambdaComplex | s/action/actual/ | 02:19 |
| Gallomimia | beepie: you're over my head by a long shot. let's just agree that it's a problem and it needs resolving | 02:19 |
| LambdaComplex | (typing is hard) | 02:19 |
| beepie | Dylan____, by forcing an EE entry in MBR might force the UBuntu installer to look at the GPT table | 02:20 |
| Umeaboy | Checking the other account then..... | 02:20 |
| beepie | Dylan____, maybe the Ubuntu installer needs to see that | 02:20 |
| BinaryDinner | LambdaComplex: what if some user will have different name for one of the folders for example /usr will be /usr_ ? | 02:20 |
| Dylan____ | Im downloading the gparted live | 02:20 |
| Gallomimia | so, Dylan____ get USB key. use software to flash an ISO onto it so it's bootable. either ubuntu installer or gparted | 02:20 |
| Dylan____ | Ill get a spare usb and download unetbootin | 02:20 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: Then...they're very dumb | 02:21 |
| Gallomimia | if you plug in 2 usb's and install ubuntu on the 2nd, you can install things like network drivers and so on | 02:21 |
| BinaryDinner | LambdaComplex: but, for science, what would happen? | 02:21 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:21 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: I suppose the package manager would just create /usr/ anyways | 02:21 |
| Dylan____ | Im gonan grab another usb and get unetbootin downloading gparted takes about 8mins | 02:22 |
| beepie | Dylan____, how many usb sticks you've got? | 02:22 |
| Gallomimia | suggestion: label the USB keys. it's impossible to tell which is which after you forget | 02:22 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: But there's a standard for this stuff. Check `man hier` | 02:22 |
| beepie | Dylan____, set one up for gparted live iso, and see what it's tools tell | 02:22 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:22 |
| Dylan____ | Im curiouis will i lose windows 10? | 02:23 |
| Gallomimia | the goal is not. | 02:23 |
| Gallomimia | but the risk exists. | 02:23 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:23 |
| l4m8d4 | Dylan____: If you do everything right you wont :D | 02:23 |
| BinaryDinner | LambdaComplex: so, does particular program in a package works because other things are "in place" and according to standards? | 02:23 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:23 |
| Dylan____ | So the plan is that i make a usb of gparted and boot into that usb? | 02:24 |
| l4m8d4 | BTW: Ubuntu live disks nearly always have gparted preinstalled. | 02:24 |
| l4m8d4 | so you might be better off just trying 15.10 iso | 02:24 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: Pretty much! Like, by default, most binaries (executables) are gonna be in either /bin or /usr/bin, depending on which distro. And by default, shell paths look for executables in those places | 02:25 |
| Dylan____ | My dvd-rw has ubuntu on it right now | 02:25 |
| Dylan____ | Only dvd im got | 02:25 |
| l4m8d4 | because if your issue is resolved in the new installer, you don't even ahve to mess with gparted-live | 02:25 |
| squinty | it should have gparted on it | 02:25 |
| Dylan____ | Before had windows 10 nvm im gonna try this gparted usb | 02:25 |
| l4m8d4 | I mean, what I'm saying is basically like, get rid of 14.04, it's nearly 1.5 years old | 02:26 |
| Dylan____ | Once im got a gparted usb what do i do? | 02:26 |
| l4m8d4 | *over ;D | 02:26 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: And things look for stuff in specific places. Like, bash looks in /etc/profile. So if you renamed /etc/, then bash wouldn't be able to find it | 02:26 |
| Dylan____ | My goals not to lose this windows 10 iso otherwise im screwed | 02:27 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: (specifically, bash sources /etc/profile when it's invoked as an interactive login shell) | 02:27 |
| squinty | copy the windows 10 to a usb | 02:27 |
| Dylan____ | How can i copy windows 10 to a usb | 02:27 |
| Dylan____ | When its already installed | 02:27 |
| squinty | you said iso | 02:27 |
| Dylan____ | On my system and the dvd i used for it was erased | 02:27 |
| nny | ok. so i am a little lost. i am trying to install a usb wireless adapter but there are no drivers for linux. everything i have found online shows that i need the driver for windows xp and use ndiswrapper to install the drivers. i cant find any driver for xp for my adapter. Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0846:9011 NetGear, Inc. WNDA3100v2 802.11abgn [Broadcom BCM4323] | 02:28 |
| lotuspsychje | !b43 | nny | 02:28 |
| ubottu | nny: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 02:28 |
| BinaryDinner | LambdaComplex: is it tracked, what packages were installed with particular one, for example, A.deb needed C.deb and D.deb but not B.deb because it was already installed | 02:28 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: Yeah, pretty much all package managers are gonna automatically handle dependencies. So if you try to install A, and A requires B, it'll install B if it isn't already installed | 02:29 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: The only package manager I know of that doesn't do that is Slackware's | 02:29 |
| Dylan____ | Right so this is what im gonna do im going to put this Dvd written to ubuntu put im gonna make a bootable windows usb too | 02:29 |
| squinty | Dylan____, you can always use a ubuntu live cd to download the iso again | 02:30 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: i guess that iso was on the mac install? | 02:30 |
| Dylan____ | That iso was on a perm install of ubuntu | 02:30 |
| Dylan____ | Its totally gone now | 02:30 |
| Gallomimia | save stuff. | 02:30 |
| Dylan____ | Anyways the gparted iso is downlaoded | 02:30 |
| Dylan____ | Ill burn it to a usb | 02:31 |
| Gallomimia | well, if you were running mac or linux we'd just tell you to use dd in the commandline | 02:31 |
| BinaryDinner | LambdaComplex: but what to do if I want do remove A.deb and packages that it depended on but were missing when A.deb was being installed? | 02:31 |
| Gallomimia | but windows has a separate procedure. need a piece of software | 02:31 |
| Gallomimia | !liveusb | 02:31 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 02:31 |
| === HazWard is now known as zz_HazWard | ||
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: oh. unetbootin is one such option for the software. | 02:33 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: I.e. you installed A, which caused B and C to be installed, and you want to remove A without knowing B and C are named? | 02:33 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: That is, you wanna remove A, B, and C, just knowing that B and C are dependencies of A | 02:34 |
| Dylan____ | Im made the the iso | 02:34 |
| Gallomimia | try it! | 02:34 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:34 |
| beepie | Dylan____, don't use the word "burn" for transferring iso to usb, it confuses people | 02:34 |
| beepie | Dylan____, burn is only for optical media | 02:34 |
| Gallomimia | yeah.... burning chips means erasing them | 02:35 |
| beepie | Dylan____, you can say that you're 'dd'ing, or "dumping" the iso to usb | 02:35 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:35 |
| BinaryDinner | LambdaComplex: installing A.deb, it needs B.deb, C.deb, D.deb; C.deb and D.deb is missing so it is also being installed. How to later remove A.deb, C.deb and D.deb? | 02:35 |
| Gallomimia | afk cause im shaving | 02:35 |
| BinaryDinner | LambdaComplex: other than manually | 02:36 |
| Dylan____ | So now that i have dumped the iso to the usb do i reboot and boot into gparted live usb? | 02:36 |
| beepie | Dylan____, | 02:36 |
| Gallomimia | yep | 02:36 |
| beepie | Dylan____, yep | 02:36 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:36 |
| Dylan____ | Was trying to download a windows 10 iso incase it goes wrong | 02:36 |
| Gallomimia | and now i'd like to point out that you seem to have a problem with confidence; evidently you're smarter than you think. | 02:36 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: That's gonna depend on which package manager you're using. I honestly don't know how to do that with apt (which is what Ubuntu uses) | 02:36 |
| Dylan____ | Ok got gparted which setting i use | 02:37 |
| Dylan____ | Default? | 02:37 |
| Dylan____ | With kms? | 02:37 |
| BinaryDinner | LambdaComplex, Gallomimia, squinty: thank you for help :) | 02:37 |
| Gallomimia | welcome, can i have your other dinner? ;) | 02:37 |
| Gallomimia | what in the world is a kms | 02:38 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: I think for pacman (Arch's package manager), that'd be something like pacman -Rs, which removes the specified packages and all of their dependences, unless those dependencies are either required by other packages or were manuall installed by the user | 02:38 |
| Dylan____ | Gallomimia im booted into gparted live from the usb | 02:38 |
| LambdaComplex | BinaryDinner: I'm willing to bet apt has an identical function, I just don't know it :P | 02:38 |
| Dylan____ | Which setting do ipress | 02:38 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: no need for kms | 02:38 |
| Gallomimia | default should do | 02:38 |
| Gallomimia | i think that's for crypto | 02:38 |
| Dylan____ | Ok did thst | 02:38 |
| Dylan____ | And it says something about configuring console-data | 02:39 |
| xangua | LambdaComplex: autoremove? | 02:39 |
| Gallomimia | hm. its for windows activation keys | 02:39 |
| Gallomimia | anyway. it should eventually tell you all about your disk | 02:39 |
| LambdaComplex | xangua: No idea! I'm on Arch right now and don't feel like mounting and chrooting into my Debian install to check :P | 02:39 |
| LambdaComplex | xangua: So, your guess is probably much better than mine | 02:40 |
| Gallomimia | LambdaComplex: script it ;) | 02:40 |
| Dylan____ | Well it says select key map from arch list dont touch kempa keep kernel kepmap select keymap from full list | 02:40 |
| LambdaComplex | Gallomimia: I.e. `mount /dev/sda2 /mnt && arch-chroot /mnt /bin/zsh`? | 02:40 |
| Gallomimia | US normal | 02:40 |
| Dylan____ | Select keymap from arch lirt? | 02:40 |
| Gallomimia | LambdaComplex: i guess that's pretty fast. alias then | 02:41 |
| Dylan____ | :/ | 02:41 |
| squinty | Dylan____, if you are happy with using usa keyboard just accept the default (33???) | 02:41 |
| Gallomimia | keymap. i think that means what keyboard are you using | 02:41 |
| Dylan____ | Which mode? | 02:42 |
| Gallomimia | default? | 02:42 |
| Dylan____ | 012 | 02:42 |
| Gallomimia | squinty thinks its 33 but press ok and see what happens | 02:42 |
| Dylan____ | I typed 0 contuniue to start x to use gparted automatically | 02:42 |
| squinty | yeo | 02:43 |
| squinty | yep | 02:43 |
| Dylan____ | Ok im in some debian desktop enviroment | 02:43 |
| Dylan____ | Tells me unallocated space 232.89 which is my windows 10 | 02:43 |
| squinty | its either lxde or xfce | 02:43 |
| Gallomimia | yup.... | 02:43 |
| Dylan____ | Its on dev/sda | 02:43 |
| Gallomimia | time to do that MBR wrapper thing whatever beepie was saying | 02:44 |
| Dylan____ | Hmm | 02:44 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:44 |
| Dylan____ | How can i accomplish that | 02:44 |
| beepie | Dylan____, can try that cfdisk /dev/[disk] | 02:44 |
| Dylan____ | Is that in terminal? | 02:44 |
| beepie | Dylan____, y | 02:44 |
| === Deez_Nuts is now known as douche | ||
| Gallomimia | beepie: he's in gui gparted right now | 02:44 |
| Dylan____ | Yea | 02:45 |
| Gallomimia | is there an actual terminal to use? | 02:45 |
| Dylan____ | Yes | 02:45 |
| squinty | should be | 02:45 |
| Gallomimia | kk good | 02:45 |
| beepie | Dylan____, btw what does gparted in hte gui say? | 02:45 |
| Dylan____ | User@:3?8-! | 02:45 |
| Dylan____ | Oops | 02:45 |
| beepie | Dylan____, device-information option should show partitions and say "GPT" somewhere | 02:45 |
| Dylan____ | Just says unallocated space | 02:45 |
| Dylan____ | Want me to run that command in terminal | 02:46 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 02:47 |
| Dylan____ | Im ran check disk | 02:47 |
| Dylan____ | Says /dev/sda1 dev sda 2 and free space | 02:47 |
| Dylan____ | So theres the hard drive plugged in and one of the live usbs | 02:47 |
| beepie | Dylan____, click view/device-information | 02:47 |
| Gallomimia | that's right | 02:47 |
| Gallomimia | sda1 is the rescue disk | 02:47 |
| trixtator | Good evening! Anyone here having experience with i3? | 02:47 |
| Gallomimia | sda2 is the windows system disk | 02:48 |
| Dylan____ | Wheres view | 02:48 |
| beepie | Dylan____, on the gparted gui | 02:48 |
| Dylan____ | Is in it gparted gui | 02:48 |
| Dylan____ | Oh ok | 02:48 |
| Dylan____ | Ok got it | 02:48 |
| Dylan____ | Partition table gpt | 02:48 |
| beepie | Dylan____, is that for /dev/sda? | 02:48 |
| Dylan____ | Yea | 02:48 |
| beepie | Dylan____, how big is /dev/sda ? | 02:49 |
| === learnit_ is now known as learnit | ||
| Dylan____ | 232.89 | 02:49 |
| beepie | Dylan____, and how big is /dev/sda1 ? | 02:49 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: by the way. /dev/sda is the disk. /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 are the partitions | 02:49 |
| Dylan____ | In the gui only shows dev sda | 02:49 |
| Dylan____ | And my usb | 02:49 |
| Dylan____ | If i go to the terminal | 02:49 |
| beepie | "<Dylan____> Says /dev/sda1 dev sda 2 and free spac" | 02:50 |
| beepie | Dylan____, what is /dev/sda1 ? | 02:50 |
| beepie | Dylan____, there's no /dev/sda1 in gparted gui? | 02:50 |
| lotuspsychje | trixtator: the #i3 guys perhaps? | 02:50 |
| Dylan____ | No dev sda is my hard drive and sda sdc is my usb | 02:50 |
| beepie | Dylan____, ok so you're not using an "internal" drive ? | 02:50 |
| Dylan____ | No? | 02:51 |
| Gallomimia | sda is the internal drive | 02:51 |
| Dylan____ | Just the hdd | 02:51 |
| Gallomimia | the only drive | 02:51 |
| Dylan____ | Which is in the computer | 02:51 |
| Dylan____ | And my usb | 02:51 |
| trixtator | lotuspsychje, I will give it a try. Thx! | 02:51 |
| beepie | Dylan____, um | 02:51 |
| beepie | Dylan____, doesn't make sense | 02:52 |
| Dylan____ | If i go to terminal the sda2 is 232.9 or start is 1026048 and end is 488394751 | 02:52 |
| Dylan____ | Ok on the gui it only shows dev/sda | 02:52 |
| beepie | Dylan____, ok so what tool is showing sda1 or sda2 ? | 02:52 |
| squinty | Dylan____, http://gparted.sourceforge.net/display-doc.php?name=help-manual | 02:52 |
| Dylan____ | And on the command line it shows dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 | 02:52 |
| Dylan____ | Sda1 is ntfs | 02:52 |
| * squinty say bye for now and goes for supper. :-) | 02:52 | |
| Dylan____ | And sda2 is ntfs | 02:53 |
| beepie | Dylan____, which command? | 02:53 |
| Dylan____ | No command | 02:53 |
| Dylan____ | Just see it on the partitons | 02:53 |
| Dylan____ | So what do i do | 02:53 |
| Dylan____ | Cause i want these oses to be dualbooted | 02:54 |
| beepie | Dylan____, fdisk -l | 02:54 |
| beepie | Dylan____, does it say "dos" or "gpt" ? | 02:54 |
| Dylan____ | Type that in the command line? | 02:54 |
| beepie | Dylan____, (from that fdisk command) | 02:54 |
| beepie | Dylan____, and for "/dev/sda" | 02:55 |
| Dylan____ | Cannot open /dev/sda dev sdc and dev loop0 | 02:55 |
| dotpixis | Dylan____: try chmod | 02:55 |
| Dylan____ | I used the sudo | 02:55 |
| dotpixis | Dylan____: but the folders still have their permissions | 02:56 |
| Dylan____ | The type is hpfs/ntfs/exfat | 02:56 |

| Dylan____ | What do u mean? | 03:01 |
| beepie | Dylan____, exactly that | 03:01 |
| beepie | Dylan____, simple question | 03:01 |
| Dylan____ | X64?? Or 32bit | 03:01 |
| beepie | Dylan____, didn't you say you're using a mac? I don't care that you don't have "OsX" | 03:02 |
| beepie | Dylan____, "OsX" is the Mac operating system. | 03:02 |
| Dylan____ | I am using a mac | 03:02 |
| beepie | Dylan____, I'm asking for the "mac model" | 03:02 |
| Dylan____ | Oh ok | 03:02 |
| Dylan____ | Is that on the bottom | 03:02 |
| Dylan____ | ?? | 03:02 |
| beepie | Dylan____, you serious? | 03:02 |
| Dylan____ | Dude | 03:02 |
| Dylan____ | If your gonna test me seriously | 03:02 |
| Dylan____ | Its a mbp 2010 | 03:02 |
| beepie | Dylan____, odd that it's using dosmbr, unless you're possibly using something like refit or maybe refind | 03:03 |
| Dylan____ | No im not using refind or anything | 03:03 |
| Dylan____ | Just the normal when u want to boot into a usb hold option | 03:03 |
| Dylan____ | I do that | 03:04 |
| Dylan____ | No refind ipor anything | 03:04 |
| beepie | Dylan____, that never happened to me on the 2012+ models i've tried.. | 03:04 |
| Dylan____ | Ok? | 03:04 |
| beepie | Dylan____, supposedly win10 has something built into it abling itself to do this | 03:05 |
| Dylan____ | Oh! | 03:05 |
| Dylan____ | Turn fastboot off | 03:05 |
| Dylan____ | And something else?? | 03:05 |
| Dylan____ | Isnt it | 03:05 |
| beepie | Dylan____, not sure what it's using then | 03:05 |
| Dylan____ | Im seen people trying to dualboot and they need to turn these options off in the power | 03:06 |
| beepie | Dylan____, you could always reinstall it from scratch, but instead "wipe" out the drive entirely using "gdisk", to wipe out both MBR and GPT tables, --- then create a GPT table -- create 3 or 4 partitions with gparted gui | 03:06 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 03:06 |
| beepie | Dylan____, because i don't know exactly what windows 10 is using here | 03:06 |
| Dylan____ | Reinstall windows 10 | 03:06 |
| Dylan____ | Or ubuntu | 03:06 |
| beepie | Dylan____, it's outside my understanding what it's doing, .. my suggestion | 03:07 |
| Dylan____ | Cause ill need to get windows 10 iso | 03:07 |
| beepie | Dylan____, see what refind can facilitate for this | 03:07 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 03:07 |
| Dylan____ | So ill download refind for windows? | 03:07 |
| beepie | Dylan____, but something i would do is wipe out and start from scratch-- but ensuring i create strictly GPT or DOSMBR table (depending on which would be better to work with refind) | 03:08 |
| Dylan____ | Ok | 03:08 |
| beepie | Dylan____, so pre-create the table and don't let Windows 10 do it | 03:08 |
| Dylan____ | Can you help me with that? | 03:08 |
| Dylan____ | Im gonna grab a windows 10 iso first | 03:08 |
| Gallomimia | Dylan____: what time is it where you are? | 03:08 |
| Dylan____ | Ill download the 32bit way faster | 03:08 |
| Dylan____ | 2:08pm aEdt | 03:09 |
| beepie | Dylan____, so when you boot Win10 it says "GPT" ? | 03:09 |
| beepie | Dylan____, that would be even more weird.. | 03:09 |
| Dylan____ | Im logging in | 03:09 |
| Gallomimia | oh ok. it's kinda late here. iwas going to suggest writing some things down and trying again tomorrow | 03:09 |

| === doginal_ is now known as doginal | ||
| Dylan____ | Yes | 03:13 |
| Dylan____ | Eraser why | 03:14 |
| eraser | because it's a horrible pain in the ass | 03:15 |
| eraser | windows 10 fucks up the grub boot | 03:15 |
| Dylan____ | Well idk what to do | 03:15 |
| nedstark | you can run grub rescue after | 03:15 |
| eraser | and you have to have a usb boot to fix the grub boot | 03:15 |
| eraser | yes | 03:15 |
| eraser | nedstark | 03:15 |
| Dylan____ | I need windows 10 and ubuntu for school | 03:16 |
| Dylan____ | And i go back on monday | 03:16 |
| eraser | nedstark, have you done so succesfully? | 03:16 |
| eraser | i keep hearing horror stories | 03:16 |
| eraser | even with grubrescue | 03:16 |
| nedstark | yes, but not recently | 03:16 |
| nedstark | this is the easiest way https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 03:18 |
| nedstark | or just install ubuntu AFTER windows 10 | 03:18 |
| eraser | yeah | 03:18 |
| eraser | that's what i did on my other box | 03:18 |
| eraser | seemed to be the safest way | 03:19 |
| eraser | i missed a step somehow though because i couldn't get it to recover my files from the default backup app | 03:19 |
| eraser | can't remember the damn name | 03:19 |
| eraser | so i had to manually restore my files | 03:19 |
| nedstark | i just back them up manually | 03:20 |
| eraser | do you use the standard backup app | 03:20 |
| eraser | or another one | 03:20 |
| eraser | or just back them up on another disk | 03:20 |
| eraser | is what you meant?? | 03:20 |
| nedstark | i don't have much on here, and just copy it manually when i do | 03:20 |
| Gallomimia | hey just a warning, they aren't very tolerant of cursing in here :/ | 03:20 |
| nedstark | a usb drive | 03:21 |
| eraser | ??? | 03:21 |
| eraser | Gallomimia, did we/i? | 03:21 |
| Gallomimia | yes | 03:21 |
| eraser | not sure where | 03:21 |
| Gallomimia | but i won't tell if you don't. | 03:21 |
| eraser | but whatever | 03:21 |
| Gallomimia | anyway, what Dylan____ is doing is installing ubuntu on a macbook that has windows installed on it. there's no macos | 03:22 |
| === stuartb is now known as sab | ||
| Gallomimia | and... it's not working. something wrong with partition tables and ubuntu installer says the whole drive is empty no other OS detected ready to delete everything? | 03:23 |
| Dylan____ | Yeah im getting a copy on windows 10 on a iso | 03:24 |
| Dylan____ | Should be done in about 30 mins or so | 03:24 |
| Dylan____ | Then once its done just tell me which os to install first | 03:25 |
| Dylan____ | Cause i need these for school | 03:25 |
| nedstark | there are special instructions for a macbook https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookAir6-2/Trusty | 03:26 |
| nedstark | that's an example, its specific to the model | 03:26 |
| nedstark | if you can only get windows installed, then maybe just run ubuntu inside virtualbox | 03:27 |
| beepie | nedstark, if you read above, "gparted" sees nothing on the drive, but "dosmbr" has entries. it's messed up, he's restaring over from scratching after he'll be zeroing out the drive | 03:28 |
| beepie | nedstark, so it'll be awhile before he tries to install ubuntu.. | 03:28 |
| beepie | nedstark, ubuntu isn't the problem here afaict | 03:29 |
| nedstark | then i'd install windows 10 and virtualbox, then ubuntu within virtualbox. this is a special case. macs are a pain. | 03:29 |
| beepie | macs aren't a pain.. here i can setup linux on multiple of them.. | 03:29 |
| nedstark | look at that url, its not a normal install | 03:29 |
| beepie | but he's also using a 2010 model.. problem i see is it looks like it is bios-booting which doesn't make sense because he's not even using refind/refit (as he told me) | 03:30 |
| nedstark | somebody made a video for installing 14.04 on the 2010 macbook air | 03:32 |

| rww | ultragas: freenode isn't really for that sort of thing | 04:42 |
| dcunit3d | it really just sucks, everytime i connect/reconnect my laptop. i have to readjust to the wrong display setup. then, when i change it, it throws my windows to the wrong monitor. so i have to drag those back to the right place. and it's something that i deal with 2 to 3 times a day and it wastes like 3-5 minutes of my time every time and distracts me from what i'm doing. | 04:42 |
| nareshnk | FelixFire619, no it is happening some time.. but some time is working fine.. | 04:42 |

| artois | ohio | 06:26 |
| LostSoul_ | I've got noobiest question ever, but do I need postfix to send emails from a server? | 06:26 |
| axion_ | my computer is broken | 06:27 |
| axion_ | ello? | 06:27 |
| artois | LostSoul_: by server do you mean a "server computer"? (AKA: a computer) | 06:28 |
| artois | axion_: fix it | 06:28 |
| axion_ | I just cleaned out my hp media center pc m7060n from dust and stuff, have it up and runninng ubuntu 14 but firefox crashes a lot and im a complete newb | 06:28 |
| LostSoul_ | artois: Yes | 06:29 |
| artois | LostSoul_: you need an mta, it doesn't need to be postfix | 06:29 |
| artois | and it doesn't need to also be able to be an email server (like postfix) | 06:30 |
| artois | you might want an email server for a "server" computer, though | 06:30 |
| artois | depends | 06:30 |
| LostSoul_ | I was just wondering if I need mta just to send mails or app like mail is enough | 06:30 |
| LostSoul_ | Thanks as I'm new if it comes to mail sending on linux | 06:30 |
| Seveas | LostSoul_: you only need a local mta if the things sending mail cannot use a remote one. | 06:33 |
| artois | LostSoul_: mail will dep in an mta | 06:35 |
| johnhenery | I have my machine setup to allow connection via rdp, however, when connecting, it opens openbox with a blank grey background. I would like to open an application every time I make an rdp connection. | 06:35 |
| artois | what application? | 06:35 |
| LostSoul_ | If I got error: host XXX refused to talk to me ... Delivery not authorized | 06:36 |
| artois | email is so archaic | 06:36 |
| johnhenery | Google Chrome. | 06:36 |
| LostSoul_ | It means mta on the other side has cut me off? | 06:36 |
| johnhenery | Particularly in kiosk mode, but I believe I can figure that part out. | 06:37 |
| artois | johnhenery: see /etc/xrdp/startwm.sh | 06:38 |

| dcunit3d | is there anyway to reload mtrack touchpad drivers without restarting lightdm? | 06:44 |
| hateball | dcunit3d: no idea what mtrack is, but if it's a regular kernel module you can just reload it | 06:47 |
| artois | johnhenery: it's just a shell script AFAIK, you can tell it to run anything | 06:47 |

| dcunit3d | PsychoX75: yeh that's why i've been documenting my isntall | 06:51 |
| hateball | dcunit3d: do you know the modules name? "lspci -k" will show you | 06:51 |
| dcunit3d | bc i hate having to use google to search for stuff i already did once | 06:51 |
| hateball | dcunit3d: then you should be able to get to a tty and "sudo modprobe -r $module && modprobe $module" | 06:51 |

| beepie | ubUserFromSp84, what's sp84? | 07:04 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | Hi beepie. I'm using ubuntu 14.04 lts and i have problems with my sdcard | 07:04 |
| beepie | ubUserFromSp84, ok | 07:04 |
| beepie | ubUserFromSp84, what's wrong? | 07:04 |
| ark_ | is ubuntu 14.04 is the lastest version ? | 07:04 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | it works perfectly on windows, but in Ubuntu.... | 07:05 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | not so good | 07:05 |
| joral | ark, update/upgrade packages or the entire release version? | 07:05 |
| ark_ | package | 07:05 |
| beepie | ubUserFromSp84, can you describe "not so good" into something that's comprehensible? | 07:05 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | it mounts perfectly but when i'm working with it (reading o writing) the system automatically unmount the sdcard | 07:05 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | and then it tries to mount it againg | 07:06 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | *again | 07:06 |
| beepie | ubUserFromSp84, if you're using <4 kernel, try upgrading the kernel | 07:06 |
| joral | ark, 14.04 is the latest long term support version but not the latest released version | 07:06 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | i'm using kernel 3 | 07:06 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | the original that comes with 14.04 lts | 07:07 |
| ark_ | ubUser ..how can i update the packages | 07:07 |
| beepie | ark_, http://lmgtfy.com/?q=how+to+upgrade+ubuntu+from+the+command+line | 07:07 |
| joral | ark, 'apt-get update' will update the package database, then 'apt-get upgrade' to upgrade the packages on the system | 07:08 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | i must say that my laptop is about 10 years old | 07:08 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | D | 07:08 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | xD | 07:08 |
| johnhenery | artois: it is not creating the test file when starting the rdp session. | 07:09 |

| beepie | Myrtti, lmgtfy.com is helpful. | 07:09 |
| ubUserFromSp84 | i think it should be supported without troubles | 07:09 |
| joral | Myrtti, even when i'm pointed to it I always laugh at it. | 07:09 |
| johnhenery | If it helps, i am using xrdp which is started on boot, and I am actually opening the rdp client into openbox. So maybe I need to set openbox to open chrome? | 07:09 |

| beepie | Myrtti, you're not helping anyone, you're bickering. | 07:16 |

| beepie | johnhenery, yes there's many extensions for x2go.. | 07:17 |
| PsychoX75 | beepie: that's the one. Thanks mate. The autostart. :) | 07:17 |
| beepie | johnhenery, it has a support feature for web-servicing though i never tried it.. | 07:17 |
| beepie | johnhenery, but it's easy to basically set it up-- as it works under ssh -- the client side is cross-platform | 07:17 |
| mobile3 | anyone here to help? | 07:17 |
| johnhenery | guacamole requires no additional software. it is all backend. you can go to the website you are hosting it on, and login to your rdp client. | 07:18 |
| beepie | johnhenery, i do not know how difficult it is to setup the "web" aspect of it, that may be difficult to do or easy to do, you'd have to look into that component | 07:18 |
| beepie | PsychoX75, yw | 07:19 |
| johnhenery | It does not appear to allow web without front-end configuration. | 07:19 |
| johnhenery | client installation etc. | 07:19 |
| beepie | johnhenery, there's advanced uses of the NX protocol.. I've used a web-service of NX but with "nomachine.com's" proprietary server -- it has a free edition -- though it is not opensource | 07:20 |
| beepie | johnhenery, i don't know how to setup the web component for "x2go" -- it uses nx v3. | 07:20 |
| beepie | johnhenery, nx is feature rich for remote desktops | 07:20 |
| johnhenery | Everything is setup and working. I can login to guacamole, it takes me to a basic openbox desktop, I can right click and open Google chrome. All of this works, I just want to setup openbox to launch google chrome when a new openbox session starts. | 07:20 |
| homa_ | hi my friends | 07:21 |
| johnhenery | Not sure if the chrome-start script needs to be associated with xrdp, rdp or openbox. Seems like openbox. | 07:21 |
| beepie | johnhenery, more efficient if you ssh -D , and proxy through that machine | 07:21 |
| lotuspsychje | !ask | mobile3 | 07:21 |
| ubottu | mobile3: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 07:21 |
| beepie | johnhenery, if you intend to use proxying that is.. | 07:21 |
| beepie | johnhenery, though i should say your company might notice excessive ssh traffic and then cut you off | 07:22 |
| beepie | johnhenery, often is the case XD | 07:22 |
| johnhenery | I am not. The goal of this project is to use this website to all of my browser when at work. | 07:22 |
| johnhenery | exactly my point. | 07:22 |
| beepie | good luck :) | 07:22 |
| homa_ | where is web file downloaded in firefox? | 07:22 |
| johnhenery | all my company will see is connecting to guacamole, everything else is encrypted. | 07:22 |
| lotuspsychje | homa_: /home/downloads | 07:22 |
| beepie | homa_, possibly ~/Documents | 07:23 |
| beepie | homa_, you can change firefox's settings to prompt you for location | 07:23 |
| johnhenery | So if you can assist in setting an app to launch every time openbox does, I would be very appreciative. | 07:23 |
| homa_ | code of html and javascript | 07:23 |
| mobile3 | lotuspsychje : ubottu : I have remove & from folder name recursively... how to ? | 07:23 |
| beepie | johnhenery, i'm saying if your company notices a lot of ssh traffic, they'd be suspicious | 07:23 |
| mobile3 | lotuspsychje : ubottu : I have to remove '& from folder name recursively... how to ? | 07:23 |
| beepie | johnhenery, and take counter measures to disconnect those ssh sessions | 07:23 |
| beepie | johnhenery, i would understand why they would want to do that | 07:24 |
| homa_ | cached web file beepie? | 07:24 |
| beepie | homa_, cache files? not quite a ubuntu question is it? | 07:25 |
| beepie | homa_, what are you trying to accomplish? | 07:25 |
| johnhenery | Seems like starting the whole project over over small roadbump seems rather silly. It cannot be that hard to setup open box to start with a specific application. | 07:25 |
| === nil_ is now known as nil_vn | ||
| johnhenery | guacamole is the key to this whole thing. and the goal is seemly web browsing, I cannot but help feel like sshing a graphic interface would be not only laggy, but would create a lot of traffic. | 07:26 |

| === PerpetualWar__ is now known as PerpetualWar2 | ||
| johnhenery | So if you can point me to the right information to learn how to start an application when openbox starts, or provide your insight into accomplishing this, I would appreciate it. | 07:27 |
| beepie | johnhenery, http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Autostart | 07:28 |
| beepie | johnhenery, if that doesn't work then you need to figure out what ubuntu's own openbox is doing | 07:28 |
| joral | johnhenery, from a quick scan of the openbox setup it looks like adding the launcher to ~/.config/openbox/autostart will achieve what you are trying to do | 07:28 |
| hateball | johnhenery: did you read http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Autostart ? | 07:29 |
| hateball | oh, such late | 07:29 |
| beepie | johnhenery, you're looking a bit silly here asking the same question over and over again, when on the openbox home project page it shows exactly just this. | 07:29 |
| beepie | johnhenery, geebus | 07:29 |
| joral | hateball, no just answer verification :P | 07:29 |
| beepie | johnhenery, just a little quick google and that gives you autostart for openbox | 07:29 |
| johnhenery | beepie: I did not know I needed openbox until about 3 minutes ago, after I had to realize for myself that I needed openbox. | 07:30 |
| beepie | johnhenery, ya lazy | 07:31 |
| johnhenery | and I also was not/am sure, as per my questioning from earlier, which was relatively disregarded, whilst I was repeated pushed torwards X2go, even after explaining multiple times that I was not looking for ssh | 07:31 |
| beepie | johnhenery, you type too much.. maybe you should focus on what the problem is really about | 07:31 |
| beepie | johnhenery, maybe it's not even openbox | 07:31 |

| beepie | anyways. I'm not touching rdp. It's "ms" to me. :) | 07:33 |
| joral | mobile3, I did not see the question, could you clarify what you are trying to do? | 07:33 |
| beepie | rdp is for Windows systems afaik, well at least to me it is. | 07:33 |
| lotuspsychje | mobile3: best to re-ask once in a while | 07:33 |
| hateball | I am not sure why you'd run RDP to a linux machine using guacamole, rather than VNC | 07:33 |
| xinghaoran | hello | 07:34 |
| === doginal_ is now known as doginal | ||
| johnhenery | To reiterate, I was not aware I needed openbox, as I am still not sure, because all deepie did was repeated push me torward X2go instead of answer my question. | 07:34 |

| mobile3 | joral: I want to remove '&' from all folders and sub folders name. How to? | 07:34 |
| johnhenery | that being said, I am not going to look into this, as it looks promising. | 07:34 |
| * beepie does not support Microsoft-created protocols. :) | 07:35 | |
| beepie | ahem | 07:35 |
| johnhenery | (Don't expect people to know everything about a package that they just realized they may need) | 07:35 |
| beepie | mobile3, rm \& | 07:35 |
| mobile3 | beepie: I don't want to remove the folder. I want to remove & from name means I want to rename the folders.. | 07:36 |
| sina | does anyone know how secure dmcrypt is while the host is running? | 07:37 |
| beepie | mobile3, so mv \& newname <enter> , what's so hard? | 07:37 |
| beepie | mobile3, practicae that, once you get it, then try things with find|xargs | 07:37 |
| sina | i mean, if i have a RAID1 encrypted with dmcrypt and one of the disks is pulled out while the host is running and has unlocked the RAID1, is it accessible or not? | 07:37 |
| muffl0n | Hi! Is there any chance to use "apt-get" with OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS? | 07:37 |
| muffl0n | I'm getting this error when doing "apt-get update": "W: Failed to fetch https://packages.graylog2.org/repo/debian/dists/trusty/0.92/binary-amd64/Packages: GnuTLS recv error (-9): A TLS packet with unexpected length was received." | 07:37 |
| muffl0n | I already managed to install PyCurl with "pip install" which works like a charm: https://gist.github.com/muffl0n/2ae432dbb3ff161a5b20 | 07:37 |
| beepie | mobile3, that might be too advanced | 07:37 |
| mobile3 | beepie: I don't want to give another names to folders... just the same name... only remove '&' from the names.... | 07:38 |
| joral | mobile3, the short version would be to basically perform 'mv folder&name foldername' for each folder in question. If you need to perform this in bulk it would require sed scripting that gets a little over my head. | 07:39 |
| homa_ | how can i change code of web cached and see result? | 07:39 |
| beepie | mobile3, you have to use \ | 07:39 |
| mobile3 | beepie: for example .... there is a folder named "Start & End" then I want to make it "Start End".... if a folder named "meta&meta" then just to make it "metameta".... | 07:40 |
| homa_ | how can i change code of web cached and see result? | 07:40 |
| beepie | mobile3, that's an advanced question, you probably might have a package to do it, but you can do it with scripting | 07:41 |
| mobile3 | how? | 07:41 |
| beepie | mobile3, though you can do it manually, but for scripting it's too much work imho | 07:41 |
| beepie | mobile3, either a tool does it or else you have to learn how to script it | 07:42 |
| joral | homa_, are you trying to edit a static page before redeploying, or are you attempting to modify a live page? | 07:42 |
| mobile3 | beepie: I have more than 500 folders like that.... I cannot do it manually | 07:42 |
| beepie | mobile3, well that's not my problem :) | 07:42 |
| beepie | mobile3, you have to find out or pay someone to do it XD | 07:42 |
| homa_ | joral : static page | 07:43 |
| joral | homa_, save the page source to a file, then you can work with that file | 07:44 |

| Dylan____ | Hey guys | 07:48 |
| Dylan____ | so can someone help me dualboot windows and ubuntu | 07:48 |
| beepie | Dylan____, what happened? XD | 07:55 |
| beepie | Dylan____, did you wipe out the disk yet? :)) tehehe | 07:56 |
| beepie | Dylan____, see pm | 07:56 |
| Celphish | damn you cpufreq! | 08:03 |
| Celphish | anyone here pro with cpufreq? | 08:03 |
| beepie | Celphish, cpufreaks! | 08:05 |
| beepie | Celphish, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh | 08:05 |
| Celphish | I'll just throw it out there then.. and this might have been said last night but I never got it to work | 08:05 |
| * beepie hides | 08:05 | |
| beepie | ahhhhhhhhhhh cpufreaks! | 08:06 |
| Celphish | I want my laptop to either set the governor powersave as default gov, OR set the cpu to 2.0Ghz (cpufreq-set -u 2.0Ghz) | 08:06 |
| beepie | Celphish, should show up somewhere as 'on demand' etc, you can keep your preference with the sysfsutils package i think | 08:06 |
| Celphish | Problem is that whatever I do with /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils doesn't do shit | 08:07 |
| Celphish | beepie: hmm, I haven't tried sysfsutils, I'll try that, thanks | 08:07 |
| beepie | Celphish, or it may be with sysctl.conf | 08:07 |
| beepie | Celphish, i forget which, but a wiki should says where to list available modes | 08:07 |
| beepie | Celphish, it'd be a cat /proc/<something> to see the current setting | 08:08 |
| beepie | Celphish, if the cpufreq related modules aren't loaded thouse would have to be | 08:08 |
| Celphish | beepie: I've googled myself to death.. I've set all the files to powersave, but it doesn't help | 08:08 |
| beepie | Celphish, well if the module "fails" to load then you know the hardware is not avail that linux can't see | 08:08 |
| Celphish | if I write sudo cpufreq-set -u 2.0Ghz after a few minutes it works.. I've also done a sudo crontab -e and added "@reboot /bin/sleep 90 ; cpufreq-set -u 2.0Ghz" | 08:09 |
| Celphish | beepie: it does load, it just ignores all settings | 08:09 |
| beepie | Celphish, cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors | 08:10 |
| Celphish | beepie: been there, done that, it says "performance powersave" | 08:11 |
| beepie | Celphish, https://wiki.ubuntu-fr.org/cpu-frequtils - https://wiki.debian.org/HowTo/CpuFrequencyScaling | 08:12 |
| beepie | Celphish, if you try modprobing the other modules, you might get more, dunno if you tried others | 08:12 |
| Celphish | beepie: the funny thing is, when I check the scaling_governor-file, it's set to powersave, but still, it starts up as performance, so frikkin annoying | 08:15 |
| Celphish | beepie: and like I said, if I run "sudo cpufreq-set -u 2.0Ghz" after I've logged in (after a few minutes) it works like a charm.. | 08:16 |
| beepie | Celphish, that's not funny that's stupid. You should be using the configuration to set it | 08:17 |
| korpr_ukka | hello? | 08:18 |
| Dylan____ | Yo | 08:18 |
| beepie | Celphish, these webpages should tell you what file you can change to fix it | 08:18 |
| korpr_ukka | does anyone know the Bash(something) guy? | 08:18 |
| Celphish | beepie: what do you mean configuration? that is the configuration? for instance, that sysfs.conf has a row that inserts "GOVERNOR="powersave"" into the scaling_governor-file, but it's already there! | 08:18 |
| CinnamonRickRoll | Anybody know if you can edit the pop-up that shows up after holding super? | 08:19 |
| korpr_ukka | he helped me yesterday andI wanted to tell him the solution I found | 08:19 |
| === Schnabel- is now known as Schnabeltierchen | ||
| beepie | Celphish, what about the other files? | 08:20 |
| Celphish | beepie: might be on to something, hold on | 08:20 |
| beepie | Celphish, is there an /etc/default/cpufrequtils ? | 08:20 |
| beepie | Celphish, maybe you can also relate to that debian wiki for the ubuntu cpufrequtils pacakge | 08:21 |
| Celphish | beepie: yeupp, there is, and it has "GOVERNOR="powersave"" | 08:21 |
| beepie | Celphish, lsmod|grep cpufreq | 08:22 |
| Celphish | beepie: does nothing | 08:22 |
| beepie | Dylan____, next time don't ask for "dual-boot" help pretending you're trying to install Windows10+Ubuntu, without saying you are trying to do this in a VM. The fact is you were never doing this on real mac hardware. You just wasted your time entirely when you could of been using snapshots. Next time be more open about it and you could save yourself the time and distraction from other users who could be getting the help. | 08:30 |
| beepie | Celphish, that stuff is a real pita man.. | 08:31 |
| beepie | Celphish, anything with power-saving is broken on all linux.. | 08:31 |
| beepie | Celphish, or hibernation, scaling power.. it's just experimental and try-as-you-go.. either it works or it doesn't.. | 08:31 |
| beepie | Celphish, possibly a newer kernel upgrade might encompass newer hardware.. dunno i'm outta ideas, i think i tried this awhile ago and was getting similar results you were geting, and just gave up on it lol | 08:32 |
| dcunit3d | has anyone used the mtrack driver? | 08:32 |
| dcunit3d | i've been screwing around with it for like 3 hours now and i just want to right click when i click with two fingers. | 08:33 |

| korpr_ukka | remember my problem from yesterday? | 08:36 |
| korpr_ukka | the OS not found... | 08:36 |
| Jordan_U | korpr_ukka: Yes. | 08:36 |
| dave4925 | any reason grub will not install with ubuntu based installers but debian installs grub without error to /dev/sda? | 08:37 |
| korpr_ukka | Jordan_U: I solved it | 08:37 |
| Jordan_U | dave4925: Have you tried running grub-install manually? If so, please pastebin the exact output. | 08:38 |
| korpr_ukka | Jordan_U: here's the thread I started it in. solution is in the last post http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=215179 | 08:39 |
| Dylan____ | Beepie | 08:39 |
| Dylan____ | I was doing this on real hardware | 08:39 |
| Dylan____ | Problem is i didnt understand this because you people talk about these stuff i dont know | 08:39 |
| dave4925 | yeah I tried that, and I think it tried 5 times and errored out. I remember getting errors about unsupported RAID mode 255 but I'm not in a RAID config | 08:40 |
| beepie | Dylan____, mac hardware uses UEFI | 08:40 |
| Dylan____ | So i have opted to go for an easier way of using ubuntu as my main os now onn my mac and getting virtualbox and putting ubuntu on that | 08:40 |
| korpr_ukka | Jordan_U: tell the Bash(something) guy too. might be of use to him at some point if he keeps helping people like that :D | 08:40 |
| beepie | Dylan____, vbox can optionally not USE UEFI. | 08:40 |
| beepie | Dylan____, you were using VBOX the whole time, because otherwise you wouldn't have a dosmbr, that to me was suspicious from the beginning. | 08:40 |
| beepie | Dylan____, so no need to lie further about it | 08:41 |
| Dylan____ | I was not using virtualbox idiot | 08:41 |
| Dylan____ | IWASUSInG real fucking mac hardware you dickwad | 08:41 |
| Jordan_U | Dylan____: Please no name calling in this channel. | 08:41 |
| Dylan____ | Fuck sake cant you get it through your thick skull? | 08:41 |
| Myrtti | Dylan____: please | 08:41 |
| Dylan____ | I was using real mac hardware | 08:41 |
| beepie | well you went on to use vbox, and then assumed it's the same as real mac hardware. IT ISN'T. you should just said you were checking things out in VM. and that was that.. then come back later to it | 08:41 |
| Jordan_U | Dylan____: This will be your last warning. Such comments are not acceptable here. | 08:41 |
| Dylan____ | Excuse me? | 08:42 |
| Dylan____ | I did not say that | 08:42 |
| Dylan____ | So you can shut your trap | 08:42 |
| Dylan____ | Pathetic | 08:42 |
| beepie | exactly, not until i foun dout | 08:42 |
| Dylan____ | .. | 08:42 |
| Jordan_U | Dylan____: Please join #ubuntu-ops if you wish to discuss your mute. | 08:42 |
| dcunit3d | uhh jeez whats the problem? | 08:42 |
| korpr_ukka | ..because everyone knows name calling will help get your point through... | 08:43 |
| dcunit3d | yeh that was ridiculous | 08:43 |
| Myrtti | guys | 08:43 |
| Myrtti | let's keep to the topic, pleas | 08:43 |
| Myrtti | e | 08:43 |
| squinty | fwiw, he has been on her for hours trying to resolve his install problems. guess he finally reached his terminal point.... | 08:44 |
| korpr_ukka | hehe, took me 3 days to install linux... | 08:45 |
| dcunit3d | i isntalled ubuntu a week ago and it overwrote my UEFI to point to grub. a bit confusing i guess, but i had already been working with rEFInd, so just used efibootmgr to rewrite it | 08:46 |
| dcunit3d | finally figured out this ClickFinger crap with mtrack though. it still doesnt make any sense. | 08:47 |
| dcunit3d | i guess the frustrating part is needing to restart my laptop or lightdm everytime i make a change. that leads to a slow feedback loop | 08:47 |
| korpr_ukka | how close is android system to linux PC ? | 08:48 |
| Jordan_U | korpr_ukka: Not very. For such discussion though #ubuntu-offtopic would be better. | 08:48 |
| dcunit3d | if you violate the GPL, who sues you? just wondering | 08:49 |
| korpr_ukka | well it was just one random question. no intention to drive the issue further | 08:49 |
| Jordan_U | dcunit3d: Another question better suited to #ubuntu-offtopic :) This channel is for Ubuntu support questions only. | 08:49 |
| beepie | dcunit3d, gnu has a form violation submission service by email.. | 08:50 |
| beepie | dcunit3d, either gnu or fsf has that service, i forget which one but it's there | 08:50 |
| beepie | dcunit3d, basically the same organization started by rms himself | 08:51 |
| dcunit3d | ahh ok thanks beepie, just wondering. just briefly found myself wondering about that. | 08:51 |
| TheEagerPadawan | Jordan_U: getting a bit further= http://0bin.net/paste/3dSps629Tu8YKXrs#GS8SsVKpQqPOOd6dpEx9m9vTJviL1FcfgUyZtPPfEZJ | 08:53 |
| * squinty wonders what exactly dcunit3d's briefs have to do with ubuntu support :-P | 08:54 | |
| korpr_ukka | they are supporting briefs, lol | 08:54 |
| dcunit3d | what's a brief? like a brief question? | 08:55 |
| korpr_ukka | check google images for answer | 08:55 |
| squinty | underwear | 08:55 |

| Gotham25 | I have some problems while booting Ubuntu from CD. My PC Screen shows only black screen and nothing else. I have Dell Inspiron 5000 series N5558. | 08:56 |
| dcunit3d | lol i donno, i'm using ubuntu and need a large community of users who might know the answer to a question | 08:56 |
| dcunit3d | squinty's over here gettin kinky. would u like to file a support request for that? | 08:57 |

| korpr_ukka | Gotham25: look for nvidia boot problems maybe. just spent days looking at boot stuff and that sounds like one of the nvidia-ones | 08:58 |
| korpr_ukka | Gotham25: don't remember that well, but I think starting in 'safe mode' was part of the solution | 08:59 |
| Gotham25 | korpr_ukka: nvidia works fine within windows how come it would be the cause for the problem of booting stuff. | 08:59 |
| korpr_ukka | Gotham25: because you're not booting windows? | 08:59 |
| Gotham25 | korpr_ukka: Ok. I agree but how can Nvidia affects the Ubuntu CD boot process. | 09:00 |
| dcunit3d | Gotham25 does anything happen before the black screen? | 09:00 |
| korpr_ukka | Gotham25: beats me. just told you what I read from various places | 09:01 |
| Gotham25 | dcunit3d: nothing. After "Press any key to boot from CD" only black screen. | 09:01 |
| Gotham25 | dcunit3d: Also the disk is running. | 09:01 |
| squinty | Gotham25, shouldn't as it will load nouveau or fall back to fbdev/vesa drivers. see if you can set it to "nomodeset" on the kernal line | 09:01 |
| dcunit3d | i donno, that's strange, it sounds like it could be something else | 09:01 |
| Gotham25 | squinty: I don't get you | 09:02 |
| korpr_ukka | Gotham25: something like this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1975428 | 09:02 |
| Gotham25 | squinty: I'm entirely new. And don't know these drivers and all other stuffs. | 09:03 |
| squinty | Gotham25, posted that before your last statement. seems you arenn't eve | 09:03 |
| squinty | n getting to the "try ubunto" or "install" screen then | 09:03 |
| Gotham25 | korpr_ukka: Yeah. The same | 09:04 |
| dcunit3d | are you booting from CD or DVD? | 09:04 |
| korpr_ukka | will it even fit on cd? | 09:05 |
| Gotham25 | korpr_ukka: But I need to get the purple screen in order to do that. I don't get that screen itself. | 09:05 |
| korpr_ukka | Gotham25: so you get absolutely nothing? | 09:05 |
| Gotham25 | dcunit3d: CD | 09:05 |
| korpr_ukka | you might try just hitting the esc repeatedly when booting | 09:06 |
| dcunit3d | korpr_ukka: there's a stripped down version for cd's | 09:06 |
| squinty | Gotham25, run the check on iso (md5) itself first | 09:06 |
| squinty | Gotham25, then if (md5 is correct) reburn or use usb | 09:06 |
| Gotham25 | korpr_ukka: Won't I end up Screwed while doing so | 09:06 |
| dcunit3d | Gotham25: if you can boot from USB, you should try doing that. you'll need a 4GB usb, i think? will it work with 2GB? | 09:07 |
| Gotham25 | squinty: It boots fine in other laptops. But not mine | 09:07 |
| squinty | yep | 09:07 |
| korpr_ukka | I doubt esc breaks anything. it can screw up the booting but nothing permanent | 09:08 |
| Gotham25 | dcunit3d: Whatever may be the way. Same black screen still. | 09:08 |
| dcunit3d | unfortunately, i don't know enough about a livecd boot process to know what to do there. if it doesn't get to to GRUB or to the purple screen, i donno | 09:09 |
| squinty | Gotham25, might be a case of uefi not really up on this topic though. see if accessing bios provides any clues | 09:09 |
| korpr_ukka | could someone explain that 'get to the GRUB' ? | 09:10 |
| Gotham25 | squinty: currently it boots only in UEFI. Whereas my windows boots in Legacy. | 09:11 |
| korpr_ukka | what does it look like when it 'gets to the GRUB' | 09:11 |
| squinty | korpr_ukka, grub aka boot loader. to acess grub menu hold down shift key after inital computer splash screen | 09:11 |
| korpr_ukka | ah, ok. never seen that I guess | 09:12 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | howdy | 09:12 |
| squinty | Gotham25, hmmm...strange. with legacy boot you figure that dvd/cd wouldn't be the problem | 09:13 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | does firewire work in ubuntu? | 09:14 |
| Gotham25 | squinty: By default in BIOS settings the Legacy is default. In that Windows OS boots. Whereas the Ubuntu Live CD doesn't boot. So I need to manually change the settings from Legacy to UEFI in boot to Boot the Ubuntu. | 09:15 |
| Gotham25 | And again to boot windows I need to change from UEFI to Legacy. | 09:15 |
| Gotham25 | squinty: And again to boot windows I need to change from UEFI to Legacy. | 09:15 |
| dcunit3d | isn't UEFI in nvram? | 09:16 |
| net2014 | hello | 09:16 |
| net2014 | can you recommend a good antivirus for ubuntu? something that also has a gui front please | 09:16 |
| Gotham25 | dcunit3d: What's nvram | 09:16 |
| dcunit3d | i guess this is beside the point, but is the Legacy config also in NVRAM? | 09:16 |
| Gotham25 | dcunit3d: you mean non volatile ram | 09:17 |
| dcunit3d | nvram is a small amount of storage on devices. 'non-volatile RAM'. it's like RAM, but the values persist across reboots. | 09:17 |
| squinty | Gotham25, none of my systems here use uefi so as previously stated, i am not really up to date on that but the following might be of assistance https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 09:18 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | hellol? | 09:18 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | *hello rather | 09:18 |
| bitgeek_ | Hi, I tried to install kubuntu-desktop, but in the process for a package warning so I ran: | 09:18 |
| bitgeek_ | sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq account-plugin-google unity-scope-gdrive | 09:18 |
| dcunit3d | Gotham25: have you filed an issue on launchpad or ubuntu support? | 09:18 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, #bash> echo hello | 09:18 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, hello | 09:18 |
| Gotham25 | dcunit3d: Yes. | 09:19 |
| Celphish | hmm | 09:19 |
| bitgeek_ | then did the install again, after a while I decided I didn't like it so tried to remove | 09:19 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, kubuntu imho is pretty fuckan good | 09:19 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, wouldn't mind recommending it over ubuntu-unity lol XD | 09:19 |
| bitgeek_ | now I get a completly blank greeter screen, I type my password and can login | 09:19 |
| * beepie eeps | 09:19 | |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | okay, at least I know I am getting through ._. | 09:20 |
| bitgeek_ | also strangly I still get the glowing kubuntu logo when I shutdown and bootup | 09:20 |
| squinty | net2014, unless you are interacting with windows ( example downloading windows related files via linux) then an antivirus (at this particular point in time is not urgently a necessity) | 09:20 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, that's more of a linux-kernel question, if the kernel says how much "firewire" is supported then that's what ubuntu has | 09:20 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: kubuntu is nice for me, but my 6yo found Unity easier | 09:20 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, nice | 09:21 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | wow...ubuntu doesn't like IDT HD audio onboard hardware | 09:21 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, wow you're a good leading parent in tech lol | 09:21 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, ;-) | 09:21 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, usually it's the other way around XD | 09:21 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: now is just weird I get a completly blank screen where I type my pw to login | 09:21 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | I can't even get audio on this usb installation | 09:21 |
| net2014 | squinty, thanks for the information, I would nevertheless be interested at installing an anti-virus, just in case, is clamav good? | 09:21 |
| Gotham25 | dcunit3d: But no improvement in solution for this issue | 09:21 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: next gen geek :) | 09:21 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, you using intel gfx? | 09:21 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | it likes my i7 though | 09:21 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: probably is a hp elitebook | 09:22 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | mine is a dell | 09:22 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, you using kubuntu 15.04/15.10 ? | 09:22 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: 15.10 | 09:22 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: I tried to reinstall the OS b the live cd didnt give me a repair option | 09:23 |
| squinty | net2014, can't really say but if you google, I know from persona exprience that you will get some alternative beside clamav. | 09:23 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, i was having a similar problem here back a couple months ago, it was mainly slight issues like this -- reality is the intel gfx driver was updated after the disotr's release -> see https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/intel-graphics-installer-linux-1.2.1 | 09:23 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: I cant think what I need to google | 09:23 |
| net2014 | squinty, I see, thank you. | 09:23 |
| Gotham25 | squinty: you said something about nomodeset. Can you explain it briefly. | 09:23 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, there's a .deb to download and you can apply gdebi <.deb> | 09:24 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, or double click it, and i think gdebi-gui takes over | 09:24 |
| Gotham25 | squinty: Where to set nomodeset in Ubuntu CD which has ISO image of Ubuntu | 09:24 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: thanks, let me checkout that link | 09:24 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, what model, i suppose by guess you're using the intel gfx by default | 09:25 |
| akincana | need help with partitionong will use patebin | 09:25 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, or whatever is the primary gfx -- i'm guessing its intel | 09:25 |
| squinty | Gotham25, if you can get to a "grub" or "install/try" screen, by pressing the TAB key, it will allow a user to add/minus parameters to the linux boot line one such instance is "nomodeset" witch will dictate that no particular driver except "vesa" or "fbdev" be loaded for graphics functioning. | 09:26 |
| beepie | Gotham25, it's imho hard to keep changing modes in the boot-chip from uefi<->legacy-bios , best is to just stick with one mode and install bothe Oses for that mode | 09:26 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | why is ##ubuntu invite only? | 09:27 |
| net2014 | does clamav scan files you open lively? | 09:27 |
| akincana | here is the patebin thanks for some pointers in right direction http://pastebin.com/hkUG7yqt | 09:28 |
| k1l_ | Shawn|i7-ubu: its restricted | 09:28 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, ##ubuntu is for gurus | 09:28 |
| * squinty is crestfallen | 09:28 | |
| beepie | akincana, "gpt" :p | 09:29 |
| dcunit3d | Gotham25: nomodeset is a param passed in when you boot Linux, i believe. i think you config options like that in rEFInd and maybe GRUB. | 09:29 |
| dcunit3d | but i don't know that you can do that without having a bootloader installed | 09:29 |
| beepie | akincana, doesnt make sense | 09:29 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | oh | 09:30 |
| beepie | akincana, linux would be inside a luks container | 09:30 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | no one here do firewire stuff? | 09:30 |
| Celphish | beepie: I don't have time to troubleshoot more atm, have to work.. to be continued :) | 09:30 |
| akincana | beepie: what does not make sense | 09:30 |
| k1l_ | akincana: you are using mint? | 09:30 |
| beepie | akincana, conflicting information because you would need something with LVM, and i don't see that here | 09:30 |
| net2014 | thanks | 09:30 |
| dcunit3d | Shawn|i7-ubu: what kind of firewire stuff do you work with? i have a firewire port on my old mac | 09:30 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: still the same, while booting I see the glowing kubuntu logo (which I thought I uninstalled) then I hear the drums, then blank screen, type password and I can login! | 09:30 |
| beepie | Celphish, yeah that is a pita good luck with it lol | 09:31 |
| akincana | ok yes its mint | 09:31 |
| dcunit3d | macbookpro, but i'm not using it with linux. i used to use it for audio, but my mixer's fucked | 09:31 |
| squinty | Shawn|i7-ubu, not all particpants use all linux functions. if no-one answers, then ask again in 10 minutes or so. :-) | 09:31 |
| beepie | Celphish, it's always possible you might need a dilly "module option" with a hardware module, or possibly some stupid thing in the bios to make linux happy | 09:31 |
| k1l_ | akincana: better ask the mint support how to handle their stuff | 09:31 |
| k1l_ | !mint | akincana | 09:31 |
| ubottu | akincana: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 09:31 |
| anand_ts | hello all | 09:31 |
| beepie | Celphish, it is after-all more of a "linux kernel" issue more than anything disotr | 09:31 |
| bitgeek_ | the first screen you see in Ubuntu listing the users, is it called the greeter-screen? | 09:31 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | oh, this room is more of a checkout counter? | 09:32 |
| akincana | ok the howto says it will work on ubuntu | 09:32 |
| anand_ts | I can't login to GUI using the password set. But I can login to cli using the sam epassword | 09:32 |
| Celphish | beepie: ye.. probably.. read somewhere about a module, but not sure, since it works when I do it manually.. Just not automated.. I might have to do a startup-script in worst case | 09:32 |
| anand_ts | What can be the issue | 09:32 |
| anand_ts | ? | 09:32 |
| k1l_ | !ontopic | Shawn|i7-ubu | 09:32 |
| ubottu | Shawn|i7-ubu: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 09:32 |
| anand_ts | it is Ubuntu 14.04 tryust | 09:32 |
| k1l_ | akincana: mint does some things differently. so please ask them | 09:32 |
| akincana | ok will do | 09:33 |
| akincana | thanks | 09:33 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | well, I hope it isn't :/ | 09:33 |
| dcunit3d | join #ubuntu-offtopic | 09:33 |
| squinty | Shawn|i7-ubu, this channel is supported by volunteers but is an official ubuntu support channel | 09:33 |
| dcunit3d | ... | 09:33 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | well thank you, I am glad we got that cleared up | 09:33 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, did you install the new intel driver? (1.2.1?) | 09:33 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: yes | 09:34 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, i suppose you rebooted? | 09:34 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, :) | 09:34 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | I have a Que!Fire FireWire CD-RW Drive that I opened up, and swapped the IDE optical drive with a 160GB IDE drive, and I dont even see it in the disks information panel | 09:35 |
| squinty | beepie: interesting you should ask that. minor video corruption (none before the last month give or take) any word on recent buglets pertaining to intel drivers? thanks :-) | 09:35 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | my lapotp has a mini 4-pin firewire plug, and I am using a 4-pin to normal firewire cable to connect this drive | 09:36 |
| Celphish | k1l_: never got it to work yesterday :/ no matter what the settings is cpufreq ignores my gov-settings and sticks to performance.. :/ | 09:36 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: yes, full shutdown, I found something online that I am trying, installing a different greeter and selecting that as default, see hwt happen | 09:37 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | *laptop | 09:37 |
| beepie | squinty, if you use intel gfx and are on 15.10, you need to be using intel's 1.2.1 release which came after the distro release | 09:37 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, how did you install this .deb may i ask? | 09:37 |
| beepie | bitgeek_, btw i asked for the "full model" of the laptop to be sure if you're even using intel ;) | 09:38 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: like you said, I double clicked it and Software Center loaded then I clicked Install button | 09:38 |
| net2014_ | suppose I download an ebook in cbr format, how do I know that it doesn't have viruses in it? | 09:38 |
| === anderx is now known as andrex | ||
| bitgeek_ | beepie: missed that, it is HP EliteBook 8440p | 09:39 |
| k1l_ | net2014_: use clamav to scan it | 09:39 |
| squinty | beepie, ok thanks not using 15.xx on 14.04.03 lts here, was just wondering and grateful for the input. thanks again. :-) | 09:39 |
| k1l_ | net2014_: but even that is not a guarantee that its virus free. | 09:39 |
| beepie | squinty, intel now provides compatible (about a year or possibly two years ago), for the "latest" releases of its intel gfx drivers for the ubuntu platform --- for the main ubuntu-official recognized distros you can use it for these | 09:40 |
| beepie | squinty, ( https://01.org/linuxgraphics/ ) | 09:40 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | I wonder if ubuntu even supports firewire data stuff | 09:41 |
| k1l_ | beepie: is he even using intel gpu? | 09:41 |
| squinty | beepie: cheers will check it out :_) | 09:41 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, whatever the linux kernel provides.. | 09:41 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, told you so, it means if the kernel supports it, then any distro would | 09:41 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, how well "firewire" is supported i don't know.. | 09:41 |
| dcunit3d | Shawn|i7-ubu: did the original drive connect? how is the firewire connected to the IDE drive? the signaling used to initiate a connection to the CD drive might be specific in some way | 09:41 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, quite a non-ubuntu related issue, as ubuntu/canonical don't do firewire development | 09:42 |
| Celphish | beepie: I tried another thing btw, changed the setting in /boot/kernel...something... To use the powersave-gove, but noooooo, ignored that aswell | 09:42 |
| k1l_ | beepie: that answer is not really helpful | 09:42 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | how am I supposed to know what the kernel supports?? | 09:42 |
| dcunit3d | it wouldn't surprise me if it worked, just swapping the drive out for an IDE drive. it also wouldn't surprise me if it didn't work in the same way. | 09:42 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FireWire | 09:43 |
| dcunit3d | look in /boot/config* | 09:43 |
| k1l_ | Shawn|i7-ubu: are you sure the cd-rom adapter is showing himself as a hdd now? does that work on other OSs? | 09:43 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, the work of it comes from kernel.org | 09:43 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | the optical drive that came with it is a plain ole standard interface | 09:43 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | *old | 09:43 |
| k1l_ | Shawn|i7-ubu: do you know that works? | 09:43 |
| CacheMoney | why is that when I scroll in my terminal window, it goes through the commands I last used and not scroll through the output | 09:43 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | I know it worked when my 2nd father used it back in the day | 09:44 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, you could even google this | 09:44 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, https://ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Release_Notes | 09:44 |
| beepie | Shawn|i7-ubu, has 2015 updates, i think that should answer your question | 09:44 |
| dcunit3d | ubuntu should have the linux kernel configured with firewire. but i don't know. | 09:44 |
| ikonia | it does | 09:44 |
| ikonia | ubuntu and pretty much every distro has firewire as an available module | 09:45 |
| dcunit3d | Shawn|i7-ubu: also, apparently there were new firewire drivers that were included in linux 2.6+ (see http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/FIREWIRE.html) | 09:45 |
| beepie | yeah, and it's a linux-related thing, not a limitation based on distro | 09:45 |
| squinty | CacheMoney, if using up/down keys then scroll through previous commands. to scroll output, here using scroll wheel works to see output. | 09:45 |
| k1l_ | beepie: where is you point? | 09:46 |
| beepie | k1l_, my point is the limitation is not due to Ubuntu's fault it cannot provide support for all firewire. That's what. | 09:46 |
| ikonia | what ? | 09:46 |
| ikonia | it supports firewire just fine | 09:46 |
| beepie | " I know it worked when my 2nd father used it back in the day" | 09:47 |
| beepie | not interested on how many fathers he has. | 09:47 |
| beepie | geewhiz. | 09:47 |
| * beepie digresses from any "personal" issues. | 09:47 | |
| beepie | pff | 09:47 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | are there any firewire programs other than audio available? | 09:47 |
| ikonia | beepie: enough, you're not helping | 09:47 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: what's the actual issue you face, it's got a bit lost in the noise | 09:47 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | all I get in the ubuntu software center is an audio mixer when searching for firewire | 09:48 |
| net2014 | hello | 09:48 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: what is your actual problem | 09:48 |
| k1l_ | Shawn|i7-ubu: what happens in "dmesg" if you attach that cable? | 09:48 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | I dont see any extra mountable disks | 09:48 |
| dcunit3d | Shawn|i7-ubu: try connecting to the CD drive first. if that works via firewire, then the HD might work. | 09:48 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | ah I must figure that out | 09:49 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: so you have a firewire disk correct ? and you can't see it in the distro ? | 09:49 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | how do I dmesg? | 09:49 |
| net2014 | something weird just happened, applications closed and the login screen appeared, then I logged in again, why is that? | 09:49 |
| squinty | terminal | 09:49 |
| beepie | ikonia, maybe you should follow-through that I answered his question and just be happy about it. Because you shouldn't be asking him to repeat his question for the fourth time. | 09:49 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | its an ide to firewire system | 09:49 |
| beepie | ikonia, that is not constructive nor helpful | 09:49 |
| === dearn_ is now known as dearn | ||
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: ok - so it's quite an old chipset as firewire to ide wasn't really a "standard" | 09:50 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | I'm gonna try xterm, since I use that in netbsd | 09:50 |
| Celphish | k1l_: Sneaky! :) | 09:50 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: are you comfortable using a terminal ? | 09:50 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | kinda | 09:50 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | dunno the linux side | 09:50 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: ok, so thats a good start | 09:50 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: can you unplug your firewire hard disk please | 09:50 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | its unplugged | 09:50 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: there are a few things that could be impacting you, some are easy to fix, some are total no-go | 09:51 |
| ikonia | lets find out which hits you | 09:51 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: so can you please open a terminal | 09:51 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | ok | 09:51 |
| squinty | k1l: you just evicted a participant who has been trying ( and is knowledgable) to help for several hours now. you guys have a misunderstanding | 09:51 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | open | 09:51 |
| k1l_ | squinty: he did gave some false advice and his attitude was again not acceptable. it was not the first time. | 09:52 |
| beepie | say there are firewire-tools | 09:52 |
| beepie | but that's not my domain. | 09:52 |
| bitgeek_ | beepie: I tried 'sudo apt-get install unity-greeter; sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop; sudo apt-get install unity' but no change :( | 09:52 |
| k1l_ | !guidelines | beepie | 09:52 |
| ubottu | beepie: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 09:52 |
| beepie | repeating the same thing is actually not imho an invitation for "help" | 09:52 |
| === james is now known as Guest10686 | ||
| beepie | because repeating the same thing over and over again like is rather annoying to be frank about it. | 09:52 |
| beepie | really. | 09:52 |
| beepie | it is. | 09:52 |
| squinty | k1l: ok but none of us are perfect.... at least he was trying. anyways enough said | 09:52 |
| Celphish | what's up with the op-sneakyness? Get op, kick, remove op? Undercover ops? :) | 09:53 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: ok, sorry got lost agai in the noise | 09:53 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: so can you run the following command "ls -la /var/log/syslog" | 09:53 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | wow... those dont show up in a plain firewire search | 09:54 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: hang on, lets not run before walking | 09:54 |
| k1l_ | Shawn|i7-ubu: can you pastebin a "dmesg" | 09:54 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: just confirm the file is there | 09:54 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | how do I paste the command? | 09:54 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | in xterm? | 09:54 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: hang on | 09:54 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: this is a full install, not a livecd yes ? | 09:55 |
| k1l_ | Shawn|i7-ubu: install pastebinit then "dmesg | pastebinit" | 09:55 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | its on a usb live distro | 09:55 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | no hdds to install on atm | 09:55 |
| ikonia | ok, so this could also cause additional problem | 09:55 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | from 3 TB down to 500GB | 09:55 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | :( | 09:55 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: follow the command that k1l_ suggested | 09:55 |
| squinty | you can still install (temp) pastebin. | 09:55 |
| ikonia | Shawn|i7-ubu: keep in mind it will be temporary | 09:55 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | yes | 09:55 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | but theres a persistence file system | 09:55 |
| squinty | then you are covered | 09:56 |
| philm88 | I've got a bunch of packages that need me to apt-get upgrade. Is there a way to get a list of those packges, the currently installed version & what the version will be after the upgrade? | 09:56 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | all my changes and installs are kept for each restart | 09:56 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | so its basically an install :O | 09:56 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | on an 8GB USB drive, usable :) | 09:56 |
| ikonia | well, not quite, but it's certainly workable | 09:56 |
| squinty | yep | 09:56 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | 6GBs free space to use | 09:56 |
| hateball | Shawn|i7-ubu: ctrl+shift+c/v to copy/paste in terminals | 09:56 |

| ikonia | no, there where some main ones which are well supported and some propirtary ones, which only really ever worked in windows thanks to drivers, | 10:42 |
| ikonia | I suspect from what you've shown me and the fact it's firewire->ide that it maybe one of those | 10:42 |
| net2014 | something weird just happened, applications closed and the login screen appeared, then I logged in again, why is that? | 10:42 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | oh o.o | 10:43 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | this one supports windows 95 and mac os | 10:43 |
| ikonia | right | 10:43 |
| ikonia | and you're not using windows 95 of mac os | 10:43 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | nor* | 10:43 |

| net2014 | is this something common with linux desktops? | 10:43 |
| ikonia | net2014: no | 10:43 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | and I actually am using windows 95 | 10:43 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | but that machine doesn't have firewire | 10:43 |
| ikonia | right, but you're not using windows 95 for this problem | 10:44 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | :P | 10:44 |
| ikonia | eg: you're in ubuntu, using ubuntu | 10:44 |
| k1l_ | net2014: no. better look what happend | 10:44 |
| net2014 | kil_ how do I investigate that? | 10:44 |
| k1l_ | net2014: see syslog in /var/log/ | 10:44 |
| net2014 | thanks | 10:44 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | not actually using it right now, its just sitting in its carry case | 10:45 |
| net2014 | what are the advantages of using samba as opposed the default network equivalent of ubuntu and windows? better control? | 10:46 |
| Shawn|i7-ubu | however I do have an 8088 TurboXT hooked up pending a SLIP project | 10:46 |
| ikonia | net2014: samba is the default | 10:46 |
| ikonia | net2014: it's really the only way to share file storage between linux/windows | 10:46 |
| net2014 | ikonia, well, it seems that I can connect from windows to ubuntu filesystem and vice versa, but I haven't tried it | 10:47 |
| ikonia | net2014: right, because of samba | 10:47 |

| Gotham25 | ikonia: if so how to use nomodeset | 10:50 |
| net2014 | I don't get it, why applications closed and I was presented with the log in screen? | 10:50 |
| net2014 | it's a desktop, not head less | 10:51 |
| net2014 | there must be an explanation | 10:51 |
| ikonia | Gotham25: I think the option is f6 | 10:51 |
| hateball | !nomodeset | Gotham25 | 10:51 |
| ubottu | Gotham25: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 10:51 |
| ikonia | Gotham25: then you can pass in the argument "nomodeset" | 10:52 |
| ikonia | net2014: repeating it doesn't help | 10:52 |
| ikonia | net2014: have you actually investigated or tried to | 10:52 |
| ikonia | net2014: the most common cause of what you describe is the video card having a problem, so the X server resets | 10:52 |
| net2014 | ikonia, yes, I tried, but I am not sure which logs to look at | 10:52 |
| ikonia | (the X server is your windows screen) | 10:52 |
| Gotham25 | ikonia: tried to do what | 10:52 |
| net2014 | ikonia, ok | 10:53 |
| ikonia | net2014: ok - so ask what logs, rather than just repeating how frustrating it is | 10:53 |
| ikonia | Gotham25: what ? | 10:53 |
| net2014 | ikonia, ok, yes, you are right, what logs then? | 10:53 |
| ikonia | net2014: the syslog is a good start, as is the Xorg log (more so as I suspect it's a problem with the X server) | 10:54 |

| lotuspsychje | PowerKiller: talk to the maintainer of ricochet | 12:11 |
| edehont | homa: shred overwrites your device 3 times, which is great for magnetic disks, but not needed for flash memory. I'd use "shred -n 0 -z -v /dev/sdXX" to overwrite a flash drive just one time with just zero's. | 12:11 |

| k1l_ | ehlo_f1re: seems its not in the manpage after 14.04 anyway. | 15:42 |
| OerHeks | ehlo_f1re, you might want to file a bugreport, but Lucid is EOL long time now. does the typo occur in recent versions? precise,trusty,wily? | 15:42 |
| k1l_ | ehlo_f1re: but you can file a bug report on launchpad for that package | 15:42 |
| XuCharlieSp84 | it starts ok, but if i open a directory with 100 pictures (for example) it starts to show de miniatures and suddenly the system unmount my sdcard | 15:42 |

| Rhonda | But even doing HOME=/etc/mysql mysqld doesn't make it start. It doesn't give that apparmor message, but it still doesn't work. | 16:33 |
| skrite | Rhonda, what error messages in the error logs are you getting this time? | 16:34 |
| Rhonda | Hmmm, dpkg --configure -a gives the same message about /root/my.cnf | 16:34 |
| rdz | hey all. i'm on 14.04 and it seems my entries to /etc/hosts are ignored. how can i make my ubuntu reflect what i configure in /etc/hosts? | 16:34 |
| hggdh | Rhonda: look at /etc/mysql -- there should be a my.cnf file (possibly a soft link) there | 16:34 |
| Rhonda | hggdh: There is | 16:34 |
| Gallomimia | Rhonda: try starting it the normal way, not calling it directly, and THEN look at the error messages | 16:34 |
| freecoder | Pici: Linux raj-VirtualBox 4.2.0-25-generic #30-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jan 18 12:31:50 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 16:34 |
| freecoder | i am running it inside virtualbox | 16:34 |
| Rhonda | Gallomimia: What is the normal way, and where would I find the error messages? | 16:34 |
| Gallomimia | Rhonda: usually it's service mysql(d?) start | 16:35 |
| Pici | freecoder: do you have the source repositories enabled in your /etc/apt/sources.list file? they should start with deb-src | 16:35 |
| Gallomimia | the error messages, you're already looking at them | 16:35 |
| Rhonda | I don't get any when I run service mysql start | 16:35 |
| Gallomimia | but the message you're looking at is from starting it in strange ways. the stuff you've been doing since you found the problem | 16:35 |
| Gallomimia | logs. | 16:35 |
| Rhonda | Ah wait, no, I do. Different ones. | 16:36 |
| Gallomimia | let's have a look | 16:36 |
| Gallomimia | Rhonda: what upgrade did you perform? apt-get dist-upgrade? | 16:36 |
| Rhonda | Gallomimia: http://paste.debian.net/375182/ | 16:37 |
| Rhonda | yes | 16:37 |
| Gallomimia | it doesn't say why. time to look at mysql speciic logs | 16:37 |
| Gallomimia | it's obviously some config problem somewhere. mysql doesn't like what's happening at the start and terminates instead of waiting for connections | 16:38 |
| Gallomimia | .... and i remember having this problem before | 16:38 |
| Rhonda | erm, wait. read it the wrong way. | 16:38 |
| Rhonda | It was upgrade from 5.5.46 to 5.5.57 according to dpkg log. | 16:39 |
| Gallomimia | of mysql | 16:39 |
| mr-rogers | I am using the ubuntu/trusty64 vagrant machine on a windows 10 machine with virtualbox 5.0.10 and I can't seem to get the audio to work because I only have a Dummy Output. I'm able to use the audio on another Precise vagrant machine with the built-in audio. I've tried reinstalling the guest additions and a few other different tutorials to no avail. My host has a AMD HD Audio Device, a Logitech USB Headset, and a Realtek HD Audio. | 16:39 |
| Rhonda | Puzzled the order in the log. :) | 16:39 |
| Gallomimia | Rhonda: look in your mysqld logs. and examine some of the configs. the upgrade clearly broke something | 16:41 |
| Rhonda | Fatal error: cannot allocate memory for the buffer pool | 16:41 |
| Gallomimia | do you have lots of memory? | 16:41 |
| Gallomimia | swap space? | 16:41 |

| Gallomimia | there's probably some free in that | 16:41 |
| skrite | Rhonda, what is the buffer pool size in your config? | 16:41 |
| === sveta is now known as sv3taL | ||
| hggdh | freecoder: fails how? | 16:42 |
| Gallomimia | no thanks Saulo | 16:42 |
| Pici | Saulo: don't advertise here. | 16:42 |
| Rhonda | Gallomimia: Thanks, that was it. I stopped another service, now mysql started. | 16:42 |
| Gallomimia | o0 something running in the way? | 16:43 |
| Saulo | Pici: ok, sorry ¶;( | 16:43 |
| Rhonda | Started the other service again, crossing fingers. | 16:43 |
| Rhonda | It's a test system anyway, so I don't care too much. Thanks for thinking for me, Gallomimia :) | 16:43 |
| Gallomimia | Rhonda: then you need to change the order they start in? | 16:43 |
| Rhonda | skrite: key_buffer_size 16M | 16:44 |
| Gallomimia | welcome rhonda. reading about upstart now might help. there's ways to make it start mysqld before that other service | 16:44 |
| Rhonda | There are some changes done triggered by some tuningprimer.sh script output. | 16:45 |
| freecoder | hggdh: it starts downloading the packages but after some time there's error where it says something like connection refused or so. i do not have the log with me. | 16:45 |
| Rhonda | Gallomimia: I rather not dig into upstart too much but try to upgrade those systems rather sooner than later. :) | 16:45 |
| === cpaelzer_ is now known as cpaelzer | ||
| Gallomimia | Rhonda: i always get overwhelmed by trying to learn too much. one thing leads to another to another... | 16:46 |
| hggdh | freecoder: well, if you cannot download the source, there is not much you can do. Try going somewhere where you have a good internet connection | 16:46 |
| Gallomimia | shouldn't it resume the download auto? | 16:46 |
| hggdh | Gallomimia: not really, this is apt-get -- after the falure, it ends | 16:47 |
| Gallomimia | i meant, entering the command again would use any files downloaded already, and resume where it let off? | 16:48 |
| sudomarize | I'm trying to install python-pip on my ubuntu docker image, but (although i can install python), i can't install python-pip | 16:49 |
| nicomachus | sudomarize: do you get an error? | 16:49 |
| sudomarize | nicomachus: it just says it can't find the package | 16:49 |
| sudomarize | nicomachus: i've had some issues with DNS, where i used not to be able to download apt packages, but i got that fixed | 16:50 |
| nicomachus | sudomarize: do you ahve the Universe repos enabled in your software sources? | 16:50 |
| sudomarize | i'm not sure if this is still caused by that DNS problem though | 16:50 |
| sudomarize | nicomachus: er i'm not sure, how can i enable that? | 16:50 |
| nicomachus | you can uncomment the lines in /etc/apt/sources.list or you can use the GUI method and go to system settings -> software & updates and check the box | 16:51 |
| hggdh | Gallomimia: perhaps, I do not know, never had this type of issue | 16:51 |
| === sins-_n is now known as sins- | ||
| Gallomimia | hggdh: i have, and it resumed. | 16:52 |
| hggdh | there you go, then :-) | 16:52 |
| freecoder | hggdh i have download these three packages - linux_4.2.0-25.30.dsc, linux_4.2.0.orig.tar.gz and linux_4.2.0-25.30.diff.gz from http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/wily/linux. will it help? | 16:52 |
| Rhonda | Gallomimia: Exactly that. Thus I rather try to upgrade as soon as possible to systemd so that I can forget about upstart and not need to dig too deep. ;) | 16:53 |
| pesari | freecoder: look at dpkg-source | 16:55 |
| pesari | freecoder: or dget | 16:55 |
| wurde | if i make install git manually why doesn't dpkg recognize that git is installed? I have the atom package that depends on git, but doesn't recognize it's installed. | 16:56 |
| nacc | wurde: because you didn't use a package? dpkg only knows about packages? by 'make install' do you mean you installed it from source? | 16:57 |
| wurde | yes source. | 16:57 |
| wurde | is there a hack that i can fake a git package is installed. | 16:57 |
| nacc | wurde: how would dpkg know about it? | 16:57 |
| wurde | because it's available to any dependencies. | 16:57 |
| akik | wurde: you can use checkinstall to create a deb package of the git source install | 16:58 |
| freecoder | pesari: thanks, i guess this is what i needed | 16:58 |
| wurde | ill look into checkinstall | 16:58 |

| LambdaComplex | thecyclone: If you don't care about it being overused due to its popularity, I'd suggest the Numix icon sets | 17:17 |
| ihatemypc | they deserve an award for having the same bug for so long on so many versions. both my netbooks have the same bug. I am amazed. | 17:17 |

| MonkeyDust | ihatemypc have you tried another mouse? | 17:24 |
| ihatemypc | all ive heard is if you have the lid closed on a netbook with the battery removed. using an external screen it will HATE you mouse, whatever mouse. | 17:25 |
| MonkeyDust | axk4545 fedora is red had based, ubuntu is debian based, so not easily, i guess | 17:25 |

| ihatemypc | i might have to. its been four weeks without doom or unreal tournament. | 17:28 |
| k1l_ | ihatemypc: so can you summarize the info, the errormessages and the solutions tried without all the ranting? | 17:30 |
| k1l_ | ihatemypc: so far it sounds like an issue from resume from standby. | 17:31 |
| k1l_ | then make sure that the modules are loaded properly. some hardware is that slow on resume, they are not available when the module gets loaded and so the module is not working | 17:32 |
| ihatemypc | ill try to get the terminal to spit out something but my best guess is that having the battery removed, lid closed and the netbook outputting to external monitor only makes using a usb or wireless mouse near impossible. | 17:34 |
| ihatemypc | and ive got a fresh updated install of Ubuntu Mate. | 17:35 |

| dreadkopp | k1l_ : cant do that since ubuntu.iso is not containing any bootia32.efi ... without it it won't boot on the tablet. | 17:47 |
| k1l_ | ss942: then use dd in terminal or the ubuntu startdisk creator | 17:47 |

| MonkeyDust | Temper i've been using it as a routine for over two years now | 18:38 |
| Temper | really ubuntu should not have an autoupdates option that fills the /boot | 18:38 |
| k1l_ | Temper: remove manually the old kernel files from /boot. then let apt-get run its updates. then remove the packages from the old kernel you removed manually | 18:38 |
| Temper | MonkeyDust: i am not worried it is just a NAT firewall server.. i can rebuild the whole thing pretty quickly | 18:38 |
| Temper | k1l_: won't that mess up the grub config? | 18:39 |
| Temper | because doesn't it have a boot option for each old kernel? | 18:39 |
| Gallomimia | well, no. it'll fix itself. | 18:39 |
| Gallomimia | you'll run apt-get autoremove once you have space to work with. | 18:39 |
| k1l_ | Temper: that is the easiest way | 18:39 |
| k1l_ | Temper: please pastebin a "df -h" and a "ls -al /boot" | 18:40 |
| Gallomimia | but i agree. autoupdates should never fill up /boot. autoremoves if they're using the easy-gui-method | 18:40 |

| k1l_ | Temper: remove some old initrd files to make space. then run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade". then remove the "linux-image-..." packages from the kernels you removed manually | 18:43 |
| dreadkopp | Giglio: i915 is pretty slow you might consider a small dedicated GPU when running 1080p reolution | 18:44 |

| Temper | i managed to uninstall all the kernels. | 18:54 |
| OerHeks | Apoc-GoD, seen the guides ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSSL and https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide/certificates-and-security.html | 18:54 |
| Apoc-GoD | Let me take a look real quick | 18:55 |
| helped7283 | Hello, i cant log intu Mate which i installed before i removed unity. There is no unity sign next to the user input field to choose anything. | 18:56 |
| Temper | is 3.19.0-47 what i should be running? | 18:56 |
| MonkeyDust | helped7283 tried rebooting, first? | 18:57 |
| Temper | ls | 18:57 |
| dreadkopp | Temper : i would suggest just installing the latest :) | 18:57 |
| helped7283 | Monkeydust of course. Nothing | 18:58 |
| Temper | lol.. is that the latest? | 18:58 |
| dreadkopp | sudo apt-get install linux should do the trick :) | 18:59 |
| Temper | nope :P and i don't think i want to install 4.4 which kernel.org says is the latest stable | 19:00 |
| dreadkopp | why not? | 19:00 |
| helped7283 | I tried to remove and reinstal mate which also did nothing | 19:00 |
| Temper | usually bad to jump major revisions on a distribution | 19:00 |
| Python2 | nope | 19:01 |
| Python2 | I would rather trust the kernel devs than the distro devs managing to correctly backport all the security fixes | 19:01 |
| dreadkopp | ^ | 19:01 |
| Temper | i suppose.. but if it isn't in the repos then I'd have to compile it all | 19:02 |
| Temper | and if i wanted to do that i'd go to the dentist | 19:02 |
| dreadkopp | is your cpu that slow? | 19:03 |
| Temper | no.. | 19:03 |
| dreadkopp | also why don't just use a prebuild one? | 19:04 |
| Temper | i got X5680 | 19:04 |
| Temper | actually 2x of them | 19:05 |
| dreadkopp | building a kernel on my x5650 @ 4 Ghz takes about 10 mins... but you run a 12 core system as a firewall? bit over the top, isn't it? | 19:05 |
| Temper | but if i wanted to manage the kernel like that - i'd install arch linux as the firewall | 19:05 |
| Temper | actually the firewall is a vm on a xenserver | 19:05 |
| Temper | using a dedicated nic only bound to the firewall vm | 19:06 |
| helped7283 | What can i do now? How to add mate to the login? | 19:06 |
| ikonia | Temper: is there a rason you're not using the kernel packages provided by ubuntu ? | 19:06 |
| charas_ | You guys use any external website/server monitoring service with a commandline applicatin? | 19:06 |
| ikonia | or have I missunderstood what you're saying | 19:06 |

| ikonia | Temper: who is and why ? | 19:07 |
| Temper | ^^^ scroll up and read | 19:07 |
| Temper | if i am not back in 90 seconds it means i broke the boot on this vm.. | 19:08 |

| dreadkopp | dont know why i get thrown to busybox in the first place (no live image found) | 19:18 |
| ikonia | dreadkopp: manually run through the whole boot up process, making sure all the pre-reqs are met from the pre-boot enviornment | 19:18 |
| shanester | Hey guys, I had a couple questions, but I don't want to break any rules or upset anyone, is this the proper room to ask questions? | 19:18 |
| ikonia | dreadkopp: right - so I suggest you look at fixing that, rather than this manual attempt | 19:18 |
| ikonia | if it's dropping to busy box - something is wrong | 19:18 |
| ikonia | so you'll waste your time trying to manually do what has failed automatically | 19:18 |

| ikonia | dreadkopp: is that the right way to make a bootable stick | 19:20 |

| e-vent | dreadkopp, I never even try to think of em like that :) | 19:45 |
| e-vent | It's binary in reality | 19:46 |
| e-vent | either you have the permission for each option or you dont | 19:46 |

| Girly | Thanks e-vent for that info. If there is anything else you have for me to try please explain. Thanks :) | 19:50 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, assuming it is x86 then yes | 19:50 |
| e-vent | Girly, assuming you set the appropriate user and group. Have the user in the appropriate group, you will be able to use WinSCP without any issues. | 19:50 |
| dreadkopp | normal i368 iso doesn't come with bootia32.efi so its not detected by the tablet :/ | 19:51 |
| e-vent | ew. | 19:51 |
| dreadkopp | yeah.... :( | 19:52 |
| Girly | e-vent now I think I know my problem. I did not pre-set the group or users. This is not like the old Linux Red Hat I used to use. Just click on a button and it did all of the permissions in the GUI. | 19:52 |
| e-vent | Well, it would be the same I would think. The web directory is almost never has a group set other than www-data | 19:52 |
| e-vent | which may or may not exist | 19:53 |
| e-vent | I've never seen any user be in that group by default so you wouldn't have permissions to write or execute in the web directory | 19:53 |
| === I is now known as Guest49776 | ||
| e-vent | For me my web directory is root:root | 19:54 |
| e-vent | So you'd need to add a group and yourself to it, then add the group to the folder and set the right permissions | 19:54 |
| dreadkopp | your apache / nginx runs as root ? | 19:55 |
| Girly | In those days it was called Super User and you could just click on with Red Hat 7 a button in the GUI mode and it worked. I totally understand security issues and I also have read why setting up groups along with users creates a better insurance of security for the box or server. | 19:55 |
| sausaqes | e-vent: good.. dreadkopp not all. Only the foolish | 19:55 |
| e-vent | good? | 19:56 |
| e-vent | Apache should be running as www-data normally | 19:56 |

| geirha | if your ftp user does not have enough permissions, then you don't have enough permissions. | 20:13 |
| e-vent | If you are literally over FTP, then I am fairly sure you have to run through the long process of individually deleting down everything. | 20:13 |
| dreadkopp | then you are not supposed to remove the files i guess :P | 20:13 |
| e-vent | Equally if your FTP user lacks the permissions to do so, you cannot do that. | 20:13 |
| FrameFever | it is an FTP account | 20:15 |
| FrameFever | I can do whatever I want | 20:15 |
| bekks | Obviously you cannot. | 20:15 |
| e-vent | Right click on the folder and delete then? | 20:15 |
| Pici | FrameFever: Is this your server? | 20:15 |

| Girly | i tried to use nano editor and got the error with WinSCP no tty present and no askpass program specified Is that because of what was spoken above? | 20:17 |
| FrameFever | Pici: a webserver hosted by my hoster | 20:17 |
| Pici | FrameFever: Then you should contact them regarding permissions. This doesn't really seem like an Ubuntu issue. | 20:18 |
| Girly | a website said that error had to do with the sudoers config file | 20:19 |
| bekks | Girly: That website is wrong then. | 20:19 |
| Girly | i read so much it is hard to believe what is reality with this stuff i am glad you nice people are here to help :) | 20:21 |
| tocotron | Hi all. I want to automatically start two X sessions at login on two different VTs. Each X session shall host a SPICE client with which I connect to two running VMs. I have tried to edit the .xinitrc in that I have added the two lines that connect to the SPICE server. Entering each single line for itself works and opens two displays on the different VTs, but not so if I want to automate it in .xinitrc. The lines I have added to . | 20:21 |
| tocotron | xinitrc are: 'startx -e "spicec -h localhhost -p 5900" -- :0 vt7' and 'startx -e "spicec -h localhost -p 5901" -- :1 vt8' | 20:21 |

| FrameFever | e-vent: with filzilla I can do this | 20:22 |
| FrameFever | e-vent: I want to do this via command line | 20:22 |
| bekks | FrameFever: Then log in using ssh. | 20:22 |
| e-vent | Indeed, you will need to login with SSH to use any command line commands. | 20:22 |
| Joel | I've got a bash script from a third party vendor, does lots of things, not a straight forward script, is there a common tool out there I can put on a VM to monitor everything it changes? | 20:22 |
| Girly | thank you e-vent and bekks for you help i will keep on trying | 20:23 |
| bekks | Joel: Reading the script is more targetting. | 20:23 |
| Joel | bekks, there's actual tools that do this, thanks though. | 20:23 |
| e-vent | Joel, reading it would be best assuming it isnt incredibly long. | 20:23 |
| Joel | e-vent, ^ | 20:23 |
| e-vent | Joel, I am aware of such a tool but I cannot remember the name. | 20:24 |
| Joel | I know there's a kernel level deal you can enable | 20:24 |
| e-vent | I do believe it was effectively enterprise only though and not free. | 20:24 |
| Joel | but you have to tell it where in the file system to monitor | 20:24 |
| Joel | I belive that and some sort of chroot deal might do the trick | 20:25 |
| bekks | Joel: inotify. Just read the script instead. | 20:25 |
| e-vent | Well, I guess you could get a new install, run it | 20:25 |
| e-vent | then rdiff the one you ran it on and the default install? | 20:25 |
| manman | Hello, I have a website example.com that uses postfix and sendmail. Mail to example.com is handled by a different server and there are MX records for this. I need the site to send an email to name@example.com however when I test this it tries to send it to the IP of the website and so doesn't work. | 20:25 |
| bekks | e-vent: inotify is the way to go instead. | 20:26 |
| Joel | bekks, it's 60k lines, would you convert it into a deb file for me? no big deal, so $100 should cover it, right? | 20:26 |
| manman | Do you know what needs to be changed for it to work with the public mx records? | 20:26 |
| e-vent | TIL | 20:26 |
| dreadkopp | manman: i think you're in the wrong channel :) | 20:26 |
| FrameFever | e-vent: I can login via curl | 20:26 |
| FrameFever | I can also upload via curl | 20:26 |
| FrameFever | but I cannot delete a whole directory via curl | 20:26 |
| bekks | Joel: No, why would I? If you want to know what it does, packaging it into a .deb will not help you at all. | 20:27 |
| e-vent | manman, sounds like a website configuration issue and not ubuntu | 20:27 |
| manman | dreadkopp, e-vent. Ok I'll try a different irc | 20:27 |
| Joel | bekks, O.o | 20:27 |
| e-vent | manman, try the website vendor if you have one, i.e. wordpress etc... | 20:27 |
| e-vent | FrameFever, why aren't you just logging in with FTP normally and just deleting it? | 20:28 |
| e-vent | Using filezilla etc... | 20:29 |
| dreadkopp | someone knows hwo the boot of the live/install media works? still falling back to initramfs prompt... | 20:29 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, what error? | 20:29 |
| e-vent | Probably should verify the image file too | 20:29 |
| e-vent | !verify | 20:29 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 20:29 |
| EzeQL | hello, My $PATH has an incorrect value and I need to fix it. How can i bisect PATH or find all the places where its being altered? Thanks | 20:30 |
| FrameFever | e-vent: this has nothing to do with my question, but okay, I have a CI system which needs to upload files to my server, when a new build was sucessfully run | 20:30 |
| dreadkopp | it tries to mount /dev/mck.... to /cdrom but fails ... after a while i get initramfs prompt with message : no bootable live media found | 20:30 |
| e-vent | Oh hold on | 20:30 |
| e-vent | I had this issue recently | 20:30 |
| bekks | FrameFever: then script the ftp command, instead of curl. | 20:30 |
| e-vent | I did fix it... but I cannot remember why it was having issues. | 20:30 |
| dreadkopp | iso is fresh from the internet, checksum is fine... created installmedia using rufus and not copying it by itself... | 20:30 |
| S_J | so to have voltage you need current but how much can a MCU accept? is there no current going into a GPIO on a MCU? | 20:31 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, try setting the bios boot order with the USB first | 20:31 |
| e-vent | You just booted from F11? | 20:31 |
| Pici | S_J: I think you may be looking for a different channel, this is #ubuntu. | 20:31 |
| dreadkopp | e-vent: cannot do something like that.. its a toshiba baytrail tablet | 20:32 |
| e-vent | ah | 20:32 |
| e-vent | In that case | 20:32 |
| dreadkopp | from uefi menu i can choose to boot from usb stick however | 20:32 |
| e-vent | try swapping USB port? | 20:32 |
| dreadkopp | there is just one :P | 20:32 |
| dreadkopp | + hub since grub has no touch support XD | 20:32 |
| e-vent | Those were two of the solutions... erm let me see if I can find more | 20:32 |
| e-vent | Try non UEFI mode? | 20:32 |
| dreadkopp | cannot do it... no setting for that :/ | 20:33 |
| e-vent | In that case, try http://askubuntu.com/questions/671159/bootable-usb-needs-cd-rom | 20:33 |
| e-vent | Mount it manually | 20:33 |
| e-vent | See the ISO mount loop trick | 20:34 |
| FrameFever | bekks: I cannot use ssh | 20:34 |
| e-vent | FrameFever, why aren't you just using an FTP program and issuing a file delete command? | 20:35 |
| e-vent | i.e. filezilla | 20:35 |
| dreadkopp | e-vent: so put the whole iso on the stick also.. when mounted that iso, hwo to continue from intramfs prompt? | 20:36 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, return to the search for cd prompt and have it search again | 20:36 |
| dwarfmut | hello guys | 20:36 |
| e-vent | i.e. detect and mount CDROM | 20:36 |
| dreadkopp | e-vent... sorry i didn't get you | 20:36 |
| dwarfmut | what alternative do I have to fully network with ubuntu linux client and Linux servers? | 20:37 |
| e-vent | FrameFever, you are trying to delete an FTP folder right? | 20:37 |
| e-vent | What does fully network mean dwarfmut | 20:37 |
| dwarfmut | with samba I could create policies and control my hosts? | 20:37 |
| dreadkopp | e-vent: how do i 'return to the search for cd prompt'? | 20:38 |
| k1l_ | dwarfmut: servers are controlled via ssh, usually | 20:38 |
| bekks | dwarfmut: No. | 20:38 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, Ctrl Alt 1 | 20:38 |
| FrameFever | e-vent: I need to delete a folder via FTP | 20:38 |
| dwarfmut | Linux servers and Linux workstations | 20:38 |
| e-vent | or CTRL Alt 7 | 20:38 |
| bekks | dwarfmut: Samnba is a filesharing protocol - only. | 20:38 |
| dreadkopp | okay. thanks, will try | 20:38 |
| e-vent | bekks, is does do windows AD though | 20:38 |
| bekks | dwarfmut: In a linux/linux environment, just use NFS. | 20:38 |
| e-vent | So, not for linux dwarfmut | 20:38 |
| dreadkopp | dwarfmut: what are you trying to do? | 20:39 |
| dwarfmut | I would like to have linux workstations and controls them basically how it's done with AD | 20:40 |

| taylor-coleman | Hi everyone | 20:41 |
| taylor-coleman | How do I install software I've downloaded? | 20:41 |
| k1l_ | taylor-coleman: depends on the software | 20:41 |
| e-vent | Old_nick, if it is like hostapd then : channel=44 | 20:41 |
| e-vent | change to suit | 20:41 |
| e-vent | I've never tried to change it while running/ | 20:41 |
| e-vent | Old_nick, I'd highly recommend using hostapd for it | 20:42 |
| dreadkopp | dwarfmut: what kind of control? mostly you do it via ssh or some nifty web service | 20:42 |
| e-vent | dwarfmut, I am not aware of a Linux version of Active Directory but I am almost certain it exists. | 20:42 |
| k1l_ | taylor-coleman: usually there are instructions on the website you got that software. or they are in a readme or such. but on ubuntu you should look out if the software is shipped by ubuntu in the first place | 20:42 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, you get to the installer? | 20:43 |
| Old_nick | <e-vent> i use NetworkManager, when change infrastructure to ap | 20:43 |
| taylor-coleman | Well, I'm trying to install a C IDE, Netbeans, but the package that came with Ubunutu from the Software Centre didn't have the C package installed | 20:43 |
| Old_nick | and add autoconnect | 20:43 |
| dreadkopp | e-vent: not yet, need to copy ubuntu.iso to the stick first :) | 20:43 |
| Old_nick | this is most simple solution | 20:44 |
| e-vent | yeah, I'd still recommend using hostapd Old_nick | 20:44 |
| Old_nick | i will be use i some time later - but now i cfg80211 pass parameters | 20:44 |
| PestByda | dreadkopp, you mean unpacked ISO ? right to the usb stick | 20:45 |
| Old_nick | where is located a cfg file | 20:45 |
| Old_nick | ? | 20:45 |
| e-vent | What for? | 20:45 |
| e-vent | hostapd or cfg80211? | 20:45 |
| Old_nick | for the scond | 20:45 |
| Old_nick | second | 20:45 |
| taylor-coleman | So, how do I install Netbeans for C development? | 20:45 |
| taylor-coleman | it just downloaded a .sh file | 20:46 |
| Old_nick | or haw it's name | 20:46 |
| Old_nick | by locate i can find where is locate :) | 20:46 |
| Old_nick | what | 20:46 |
| e-vent | Old_nick, I honestly cannot find anything on cfg80211 for hosting an AP that isnt using hostapd | 20:47 |
| k1l_ | taylor-coleman: https://netbeans.org/community/releases/80/install.html | 20:47 |

| taylor-coleman | Learning linux is strange | 20:50 |
| taylor-coleman | very frustrating | 20:50 |
| Nyterax | Hi, I have Ubuntu on my main laptop ssd and want to add another ssd and install Windows 10 on it. I tried it a couple of times and each time Windows 10 wouldn't boot. What am I supposed to do? | 20:51 |
| dreadkopp | try arch-linux. best way to learn about how linu works / how to do things in my oppinion :) | 20:51 |
| taylor-coleman | Arch is for pros, I'm a noob! lol | 20:51 |
| dreadkopp | Nyterax: maybe ask in #windows | 20:51 |
| dreadkopp | arch is for beginners and pros :) i am using it for my host and two servers and still would not call me a pro :P | 20:52 |
| k1l_ | well, respect that your windows habbit will not help. so read the instructions and you will learn | 20:52 |
| k1l_ | dreadkopp: #archlinux for the arch adverds | 20:52 |
| dreadkopp | sry | 20:52 |
| e-vent | Nyterax, the nature of your problem is likely Windows 10 not adding it's boot to a UEFI partition | 20:53 |
| e-vent | So you should install both Windows 10 and Ubuntu in UEFI mode. | 20:53 |
| taylor-coleman | eh? | 20:54 |
| e-vent | k1l_, adverds? | 20:54 |
| e-vent | arch nerds or adverts? | 20:54 |
| PestByda | e-vent, yes in UEFI mode | 20:54 |
| PestByda | e-vent, first install Win10 | 20:55 |
| e-vent | Then disable fastboot | 20:55 |
| PestByda | e-vent, then create partitions for linux | 20:55 |
| e-vent | then install ubuntu | 20:55 |
| Nyterax | but I have Ubuntu already | 20:55 |
| e-vent | Are you installed in UEFI mode for ubuntu? | 20:55 |
| Nyterax | not sure | 20:55 |
| PestByda | e-vent, Yes, with win10 | 20:55 |
| PestByda | e-vent, but you have to Pre Partition everything in Win10 | 20:56 |
| e-vent | Nyterax, alternately, unplug you ubuntu disk while installing windows | 20:56 |
| e-vent | then you need to change boot devices in bios to boot separate OSs | 20:56 |
| PestByda | e-vent, Create an EXTENDED PARTITION, create a swap partition equal to the amount of RAM you have | 20:57 |
| e-vent | PestByda, he is using separate drives isnt he? | 20:57 |
| e-vent | PestByda, I have no idea why you are talking about ubuntu partitioning, it isnt helping | 20:57 |
| PestByda | e-vent, ok didnt catch that | 20:57 |
| e-vent | It sounds like windows 10 is failing to add the UEFI boot or normal MBR, so effectively the easiest way to deal with it is to unplug the ubuntu drive when installing | 20:58 |
| e-vent | then re add the ubuntu drive back after windows 10 has finished installing. | 20:59 |
| Nyterax | e-vent, I tried that also, and once I plugged both in windows 10 would no longer boot | 20:59 |
| Old_nick | can pass structure as parameters ? | 20:59 |
| PestByda | e-vent, my comments were directed at Nyterax, sorry | 20:59 |
| Old_nick | options ieee80211_channel_to_frequency 6 | 20:59 |
| e-vent | Old_nick, genuinely have no idea about manually setting things that way. | 20:59 |
| ChameleonSix | hi | 21:00 |

| ChameleonSix | danke | 21:02 |
| ChameleonSix | :) | 21:02 |
| k1l_ | ChameleonSix: there is a terminal version of networkmanager. nm-cli | 21:03 |
| e-vent | ChameleonSix, k1l_ alternately: http://askubuntu.com/questions/461825/connect-to-wifi-from-command-line | 21:03 |
| PestByda | ChameleonSix, Actually that command is nmcli not nm-cli | 21:04 |
| ChameleonSix | hmmm | 21:04 |
| MonkeyDust | nmcli, rather | 21:04 |

| DavidFromBE | hello, i'm trying to update boost libraries on a ubuntu 14.04 system | 21:05 |
| DavidFromBE | did sudo add-apt-repository ppa:boost-latest/ppa | 21:06 |
| DavidFromBE | sudo apt-get update | 21:06 |
| DavidFromBE | but i get a 404 error | 21:06 |
| DavidFromBE | any help ? | 21:06 |
| k1l_ | DavidFromBE: what gives you "lsb_release -d"? | 21:07 |
| DavidFromBE | Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS | 21:07 |
| nacc | DavidFromBE: boost-latest has no trusty support | 21:08 |
| nacc | look at the ppa | 21:08 |
| k1l_ | DavidFromBE: that PPA is so outdated it only got support until trusty | 21:08 |
| nacc | DavidFromBE: "This PPA currently publishes packages for Saucy, Raring, Quantal, Precise, and Lucid." | 21:08 |
| DavidFromBE | ok, how do i update boost libs then ? | 21:09 |
| nacc | DavidFromBE: what version do you need? | 21:09 |
| DavidFromBE | i have 1.54, i need 1.55 | 21:10 |
| PestByda | DavidFromBE, have you tried this/ sudo apt-get install libboost1X.55-all-dev | 21:10 |
| nacc | DavidFromBE: looking at packages.ubuntu.com, 1.55 is in universe | 21:11 |
| DavidFromBE | E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'libboost1X.55-all-dev' | 21:11 |
| MonkeyDust | !info boost-latest | 21:11 |
| ubottu | Package boost-latest does not exist in wily | 21:11 |
| DavidFromBE | nacc: i have "deb http://azure.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty universe" in my sources.list | 21:13 |
| nacc | DavidFromBE: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libboost1.55-all-dev | 21:13 |
| nacc | DavidFromBE: why were you searching for 1X.55 ? | 21:13 |
| PestByda | nacc, good point | 21:15 |
| PestByda | DavidFromBE, after the sudo apt-get update... did you run sudo apt-get install libboost1X.55-all-dev | 21:16 |
| DavidFromBE | ok, did apt-get remove libboost1.54-dev and then apt-get install libboost1.55-all-dev it looks ok so far | 21:17 |
| DavidFromBE | thanks | 21:17 |
| sudo_rm_-r | hi i have kali linux on a live usb on my pc but it wont open the hard drive on my computer can someone tell me why? | 21:17 |
| DavidFromBE | it's all good | 21:17 |
| bekks | !derivatives | sudo_rm_-r | 21:17 |
| ubottu | sudo_rm_-r: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 21:17 |
| sudo_rm_-r | oh thanks | 21:18 |
| nacc | DavidFromBE: should have been fine to just `apt-get install libboost1.55-all-dev` and it would either have resolved the dependencies/conflicts or just gone ahead and installed, afaict | 21:18 |
| DavidFromBE | yes, it complained about dependencies so i had to manually remove v1.54. | 21:19 |
| nacc | DavidFromBE: ah ok | 21:19 |

| yorwos | thnx bp , im removing it | 22:14 |

| === nuclearbob is now known as nuclearbob_bbiab | ||
| bprompt | sudomarize: that's usually handled by the terminal app.... so you can set margins and stuff there, assuming it has such options, Konsole is one of the best rated terminal apps, and allows a good level of customization .....though I just checked.. and doesn't have the margins part, but other choices though | 22:18 |
| sudomarize | bprompt: ah ok | 22:18 |
| bprompt | sudomarize: so, you'd want a terminal app that allows you adding margins to the terminal window and other decorations | 22:18 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, you sure you mounted the ISO right? | 22:19 |
| e-vent | the ctrl alt stuff is just to move between terminals | 22:19 |

| e-vent | dreadkopp, go over the problem again I went away and had dinner | 22:23 |
| dreadkopp | me too :) okay... i am trying to install ubuntu on this baytrail toshiba wt7-c tablet since win 10 (which is installed) is not detecting the hardware correctly leaving it useless and win 8.1 can just be reinstalled by the recovery media it's owner didn't created before going to win 10... i created a ubuntu 15-10 x86 install usb using rufus. then i created /EFI/boot and added the needed bootia32.efi to get to grub (32bit | 22:29 |
| dreadkopp | UEFI on this damn thing). i get to grub commandline and start ubuntu by loading ubuntus grub conf ( configfile (hd0,msdos1)/boot/grub/loopback.cfg ) then selecting ' Try Ubuntu '. kernel + initramfs is loaded but then instead of Live session i am dumped into the initramfs prompt busybox with the message ' unable to find a medium containing a live file system ' ... there i am.. :/ | 22:29 |

| AppleJacks | Hello everyone. Was wondering if I could get some assistance. I'm using lubuntu and recent changed my default (and only) user to be able to login from startup without requiring a password. However, each time I try ot login after selecting my user it will just flash black then black back to the login screen. Even worst I haven't setup ssh access yet so I'm stuck out of my machine. | 22:45 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, is that a default conf? | 22:45 |
| dreadkopp | yes - quiet and splash argument. | 22:46 |
| zerowaitstate | AppleJacks: CTRL-ALT-F1 will get you a text tty | 22:48 |
| dreadkopp | just disassembling that damn thing now.. whould be great if i could put everything directly on the interal storage | 22:48 |
| bprompt | sudomarize: and if you want some coloring in the "man pages", check "most pager", is in the repositories, check for "most", and you can customize those colors at its configuration file at ~/.mostrc | 22:48 |
| zerowaitstate | AppleJacks: CTRL-ALT-F7 will go back to X | 22:48 |
| zerowaitstate | AppleJacks: sounds like your X server is crashing. I would check the X error log | 22:49 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, you can according to arch | 22:49 |
| e-vent | did you set your USB as the boot device (top) | 22:49 |
| sudomarize | bprompt: sweet, i'll check it out | 22:49 |
| e-vent | Try setting the order USB HD CD apparently | 22:50 |
| ed_ | hi guys! sorry if this is super basic (I am sure it is) but I cannot find the answer on google. How do I see my DHCP information? IE: my IP address, gateway, DNS servers etc | 22:50 |

| dreadkopp | cannot change the order :/ | 22:50 |
| e-vent | ed ^ | 22:50 |

| ed_ | e-vent, thanks but that's not complete I think (eg no DNS) | 22:50 |
| zerowaitstate | ed_: use "ip addr" and not ifconfig. ifconfig is deprecated | 22:50 |

| ed_ | i am looking at other options for iP canot se it | 22:53 |
| zerowaitstate | no, it does not | 22:53 |
| e-vent | try nslookup Anywebsite | 22:53 |
| AppleJacks | Thanks, it does appear to be crashing, once I tried that and startx it just locked up | 22:53 |

| Guest90280 | <Becky> | 22:59 |

| lnostdal | e.g. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-8 .. both 8u66 and 8u45 (!!!) have problems | 23:00 |

| k1l | lnostdal: do you have specific cves? if they are not patched already file bugs | 23:02 |

| Becky2 | k1l I'm glad to see you are still here. You helped me make wifi work on my Ubuntu 14.04 Toshiba laptop a few days ago. We upgraded part of the kernel. It did work for a few days, but when Ubuntu did an update it stopped working. Could you please tell me again how to update the kernel? | 23:04 |
| e-vent | I think the command literally is boot | 23:05 |
| k1l | Becky2: what gives you "uname -a" ? | 23:05 |
| PestByda | Becky2 what specifically is wrong? | 23:05 |
| PestByda | Becky2, are you seeing any wifi routers? | 23:06 |
| Becky2 | The wifi looks like it is connecting. It accepts the password and looks great. But the internet just times out every time. | 23:06 |
| Becky2 | Not sure what uname -a is referring to. Should I type that in terminal? | 23:07 |
| k1l | Becky2: yes please | 23:07 |
| AppleJacks | Is there a prepackage vnc program that will auto-start without and extra setup? | 23:07 |
| AppleJacks | vnc server* | 23:07 |
| PestByda | Becky2, it would give you the KERNEL version you are running | 23:07 |
| PestByda | Becky2, just run uname -r in a terminal | 23:08 |

| === nuclearbob_bbiab is now known as nuclearbob | ||
| e-vent | try dding it on | 23:16 |
| e-vent | or unetbootin | 23:16 |
| Becky2 | k1l where is the boot menu? I will give it a try | 23:16 |
| k1l | Becky2: press left shift when you boot up. there should be the "grub" menu. choose "more" or other ubuntu. there it should list several old kernels | 23:16 |
| Becky2 | k1l thanks, I will try that. Any suggestions on which one I should pick? | 23:17 |
| k1l | the last one before this. | 23:18 |
| k1l | just to test if it was an kernel upgrade or something else | 23:18 |
| dreadkopp | rufus does the same as unetbootin... dd is still no possibility :/ need to charge the thing for now... argggh! or maybe just throw it away | 23:18 |
| Becky2 | kl1 ok thanks I will try it. My mom is telling me to get off the computer, so it might be a minute before I come back. so thanks for the advice! | 23:18 |

| derpsauce | Nautilus won't mount network folders (smb, sftp) when I run it remotely (ssh-ing and x11 forwarding) | 23:24 |
| derpsauce | Anyone else have that problem? | 23:24 |
| e-vent | dreadkopp, no idea :) | 23:24 |
| dreadkopp | derpsauce: i guess nautilus is mounting the shares to your user. are you ssh-ing as the same user? | 23:25 |
| ikonia | is it using fuse | 23:25 |
| ikonia | as that will fail | 23:25 |
| derpsauce | dreadkopp: I'm ssh-ed as the same user I usually use locally. | 23:26 |
| derpsauce | ikonia: is that question at me? | 23:26 |
| smitty1e | Login question: I can CTRL+ALT+F2 and log into a tty with my user account, but the regular X11 login dialog rejects my password. This is 15.1 | 23:28 |
| dreadkopp | that strange... maybe graphical login uses different keyboard layout? | 23:29 |
| smitty1e | Someone also suggested a PAM problem? | 23:30 |
| dreadkopp | does your passwd contain any special characters or z/y ? | 23:31 |
| derpsauce | Ah, my problem might just be that my parent PID isn't rooted | 23:31 |
| jonascj | Hi all. I am trying to install ubuntu desktop 14.04 on a HP 840 G1 which use UEFI. I have the harddisk partitioned as sda1 512MB EFI system parttion (ESP), and sda2 200GB LVM. I had already manually setup volume groups, logical volumes etc., so during Ubuntu install I chose "Something else" and made it use the LVs for /, /home, /tmp, swap etc., and I asked it to install bootloader to /dev/sda1 (the 512MB ESP). | 23:31 |
| === agile_prg2 is now known as agile_prg | ||
| smitty1e | dreadkopp: no, just alphanumeric. | 23:31 |
| jonascj | But upon reboot it says "Error: symbol 'grub_efi_secure_boot' not found." | 23:31 |
| jonascj | What have I done wrong? | 23:31 |
| PestByda | jonascj, is there another os on this system? | 23:32 |
| e-vent | try turning secure boot off | 23:32 |
| derpsauce | Who knew that ctrl+z of your ssh x11 window would terminate the connection (mobaxterm+lts14.04) | 23:33 |
| e-vent | but It sounds like it installed with secure boot on and it failed to add the right files | 23:33 |
| jonascj | PestByda: there was, arch linux with manual grub installationa and config, but I need ubuntu on the system for a time. | 23:33 |
| jonascj | PestByda: do you suggest I reformat the disk completely and lay out the ESP etc. again? | 23:33 |
| jonascj | or is ESP not necessary for ubuntu uefi? | 23:33 |
| jonascj | It seems to me that grub is installed somewhat correct since I see the classic ubuntu boot menu "Ubuntu", "Ubuntu Advanced options" etc. | 23:34 |
| PestByda | jonascj, just stop partitioning messing with a harddrive, Let the Ubuntu install OVERWRITE the whole disk | 23:35 |
| jonascj | PestByda: and at what point will I setup my lvm? | 23:35 |
| PestByda | jonascj are you INSTALLING A DUAL / MULTI BOOT? | 23:36 |
| PestByda | jonascj, if you are installing a clean Ubuntu Just let it install | 23:36 |
| jonascj | PestByda: no, but I would like to use lvm, and if I remember correctly standard ubuntu lvm install only makes two LVs (root and home) | 23:36 |
| jonascj | of course I can resize etc. once booted, but it seemed nice to do it beforehand | 23:37 |
| Becky_ | k1l mom just wanted me to show her how to use the new electric pressure cooker to cook pork ribs. I'm back. Downgrading the kernel to the most recent one with the left shift didn't work. | 23:38 |
| PestByda | jonascj, ok technically you need three partitions on an extended partition... a swap(equal in size to the amount of ram, a Root(ext4) partition about 10Gb, and Home(ext4) the rest of the available free space... | 23:39 |
| Becky_ | k1l last time I thought we upgraded the kernel to the Ubuntu 15 (or something) | 23:39 |
| k1l | Becky_: grub looks like this: http://i.stack.imgur.com/Z2lrL.png | 23:39 |
| k1l | Becky_: yes. you are now on the 15.10 backports kernel. | 23:40 |
| jonascj | PestByda: I would prefer to have one partition being used for LVM (will house root, tmp, home etc.) and maybe another partition for boot/efi stuff (if needed, maybe it is not). | 23:40 |
| Becky_ | k1l yes, i saw a list like that except mine had many grubs to choose from. Like at least 5 I think. | 23:40 |
| k1l | Becky_: there should be the latest kernel version (4.2) but there should be several different 4.2 ones. you are not on 4.2.0-25 but there should be one decreased to the -25 number | 23:41 |
| === PeshtBuda is now known as PestBuda | ||
| jonascj | Now I try with ubuntu | 23:43 |
| jonascj | ubuntu's own lvm partitioning scheme | 23:43 |
| Becky_ | k1l The top one had a four I remember, then there was one that said "safe mode" then I saw one below that that had a three in it. I should have written it down. I need to try again | 23:43 |
| jonascj | maybe that will work and I can fix the rest post installation | 23:43 |
| k1l | Becky_: wait | 23:43 |
| Becky_ | k1l ok you caught me | 23:44 |
| k1l | Becky_: please pastebin the output of "ls -al /boot" | 23:44 |
| Becky_ | k1l http://paste.ubuntu.com/14691623/ | 23:46 |
| k1l | Becky_: ok. so there os only one 4.2 kernel. so that has not changed | 23:46 |
| Becky_ | k1l ok. maybe i was mistaken about what we did to fix it last time | 23:47 |
| k1l | Becky_: you could run a "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" to make sure you got all latest updates | 23:47 |
| k1l | Becky_: then please run a "sudo apt-get autoremove" to let some not used packages be removed. | 23:47 |
| Becky_ | k1l thank you. I will do both of those suggestions | 23:48 |
| jonascj | ubuntu's own lvm scheme did not work :S | 23:49 |
| k1l | Becky_: to clarify: we changed the kernel branch from 3.13 to 4.2. but that kernels still get updates inside their branch (like you see the whole 3.13 ones there) | 23:49 |
| PestBuda | k1l, judging by that pastbin, it will be a while before that "autoremove" is done | 23:49 |
| eelstrebor | ok. so how does one test dnscrypt if one is not using an opendns server? | 23:49 |
| Becky_ | k1l ok what is a kernel now? | 23:50 |
| PestBuda | ohh wow | 23:50 |
| k1l | Becky_: its a basis layer of the whole operating system. | 23:51 |
| PestBuda | Becky_, think of kernel as the Brain of any OS | 23:52 |
| Becky_ | dang it guys, my mom is making me get off the computer again. sorry | 23:52 |
| PestBuda | ... nice | 23:53 |
| Becky_ | k1l I will try to come back in a few if i can | 23:53 |
| PestBuda | k1l, I have to go too, my mom is telling me I have to finish my homework, and clean my room....... | 23:54 |
