[00:35] <Poisoned_Dragon> Ooops, sorry. Trying to unfreeze my touchpad left click.
[01:18] <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?
[01:22] <nedstark> here's 1 way http://www.howtogeek.com/114884/how-to-repair-grub2-when-ubuntu-wont-boot/

[01:23] <Poisoned_Dragon> Personally, when I have different installs on separate drives, I just handle it with the boot menu from the bios. If I had multiple installs on the same drive, then i would make the effort.
[01:24] <Poisoned_Dragon> But, that's more chat than help. so, I digress.
[03:05] <jalt> Hi, I'm running Xubuntu 14.04.01 (amd64) and I am unsure about how to optin for enablement stacks (i.e., newer kernel and X). The ubuntu wiki shows some examples, but is not particularly clear, nor does it seem particularly up to date. Any tips? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[03:08] <xangua> I see perfectly described how to install a new kernel+ drivers, just install the driver, etc
[03:12] <jalt> xangua, more than half the page is for 12.04, the hwe-support-status tool does not exist for 14.04, the first example is for vivid even though wily has been out for quite a while, and it includes wayland, which is not explained why is it needed.
[03:12] <jalt> it also does not say whether the process is reversible
[03:14] <xangua> I perfectly see instructions for trusty first and then for precise, also what exactly you want to do and Why?
[03:14] <xangua> Do you want to upgrade the kernel and xorg drivers? Just the kernel?
[03:17] <jalt> vlc has choppy performance, so i want to see if updating the kernel and the X stack will bring some improvements. I would prefer to try updating to the equivalent of the latest lts available for download, which is xubuntu 14.04.2 (for some reason it does not match ubuntu's 14.04.3). since it is not clear from the wiki how to do that, i will consider updating to the 15.10, wily stacks.
[03:19] <jalt> to the best of my knowledge, there is nothing similar to dist-upgrade for the LTS point releases other than using the enablement stacks
[03:21] <xangua> jalt: so you want to fix VLC "choppiness" updating the kernel and drivers? That sounds to me like an XY problem but you should be able to do with the very first command is shown, Trusty> desktop
[03:22] <jalt> XY?
[03:23] <xangua> Xyproblem.info
[03:26] <jalt> the same version of VLC on the same version of Xubuntu, on a different computer, runs fine, so it is not so inconceivable that newer X or kernel can help
[03:28] <jalt> anyway, i will follow the wiki instructions for the enablement stacks
[03:28] <jalt> thanks xangua

[11:50] <Executioner> probably the wrong channel but worth asking: anyone has a binary for htop for armel platform?
[12:03] <sw0rdy> hi
[12:03] <sw0rdy> anyone there?
[12:04] <knome> sw0rdy, ask your question and find out
[12:04] <knome> lunch ->
[12:04] <sw0rdy> I want to install xubuntu on a 8GB usb-stick knome
[12:06] <sw0rdy> can a minimal CD version function well enough... I want to use vbox and create a VM with it's hdd file on another big external USB Hardrive
[12:08] <sw0rdy> oh shoot, I had the wrong idea of what a minimal CD is... I guess I meant a server-edition not a desktop-edition of ubuntu
[13:35] <xubuntu39w> h\
[13:35] <xubuntu39w> hi
[13:39] <xubuntu39w> reboot =c
[13:39] <xubuntu39w> \clear
[13:39] <xubuntu39w> ex't
[14:49] <xubuntu61wsa> yesterday i got some updates for my server, using xubuntu. the updates were commands such as "passwd" and other commands that i dont remember right now.. clearly someone tried to get in my system, but why did these commands come from xubuntus update server (sweden)? its strange to me or can someone explain this to me. regards
[14:50] <xubuntu61wsa> ofc no of the commands worked it failed to "download update package" but still it seems strange.
[14:50] <xubuntu61wsa> and my internet connection died during the "attack"
[14:52] <xubuntu61wsa> was watching boondock saints 2 and it stopped half way and then i checked my server computer (that only shares my internet connection) and there these commands were sent to me through xubuntus update server (swe)
[14:52] <Pici> xubuntu61wsa: er, there was a real update for passwd in trusty-proposed recently.
[14:54] <xubuntu61wsa> is this true? why did it fail to download. maby its just my crappy internet connection that failed during these updates.
[14:54] <Pici> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shadow/+publishinghistory
[14:54] <Pici> I don't know why it failed. Could have been a mirror issue, or a bad connection.
[14:54] <genii> Could also have been updates to any of these packages http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=trusty&arch=any&mode=exactfilename&searchon=contents&keywords=passwd
[14:55] <xubuntu61wsa> ok, so i should still trust my xubuntu system and stop being so d*mn paranoid? :)
[14:55] <Pici> yes :)
[14:56] <xubuntu61wsa> haha ok =)
[14:56] <xubuntu61wsa> thanks
[14:57] <xubuntu61wsa> thanks Pici
[14:57] <Pici> np
[14:57] <xubuntu61wsa> =)
[14:58] <xubuntu61wsa> love xubuntu its user friendly anyone can use it
[15:35] <xubuntu53w> Hi !
[15:37] <xubuntu53w> I will like to know how to create a partition common to 2 linux distros where i can store my files, photos and so on... any idea?
[15:39] <xubuntu53w> I thought to create a /data partition but the partitio will be linked with one distro.. I mean in the / directory.....
[15:51] <genii> Just mount whatever partition you create to somewhere like /home/yourname/mystuff
[15:56] <xubuntu53w> genii: yes I could do it... but which meas I will have to increase the size of my /home folder...
[15:58] <genii> Why do you believe that you will need to increase the folder size?
[15:59] <xubuntu53w> I already created my partition for the files when I installed xubuntu.. using gparted
[15:59] <xubuntu53w> and what I saw is that xubuntu automatically mounted the partition
[16:00] <xubuntu53w> and created a directory /media/stephane/Data (Data is the name of my partition
[16:01] <genii> That is the usual behaviour, but if you have an /etc/fstab entry for it to mount elsewhere, that will be used instead
[16:01] <xubuntu53w> when using gparted to install xubuntu I created a /partito with 30Gb and the /partiton is already full...
[16:01] <xubuntu53w> ok
[16:02] <xubuntu53w> genii: right... I didnt think about this solution with fstab...
[16:03] <xubuntu53w> I can try it...
[16:15] <xubuntu53w> Thanks genii !
[17:32] <xubuntu39w> One tricky question! I have a acer aspire one with 8GB hdd and 8GB SD card. Is possible to use them in xubuntu as 16gb HDD. I read somewhere that you can do it
[17:32] <xubuntu39w> Something like merge it, not use it as external hdd
[18:43] <xubuntu01w> Hi ! I installed xubuntu + 1 partion in ext4 I use to store my files, photos, and so on... and the mount point is: Data1. by default its automatically mounted in teh /media folder..
[18:44] <xubuntu01w> If I want my partition mounted in teh home folder how can I do?
[18:44] <xubuntu01w> and is it possible?
[18:50] <krytarik> !fstab | xubuntu01w
[18:52] <xubuntu01w> thanks ubottu: its the 3rd time I read it and it doesnt work.
[18:52] <xubuntu01w> in the fstab file
[18:54] <xubuntu01w> thanks
[18:55] <xubuntu01w> i will try somthing else
[20:42] <xubuntu46w> someone hola
[20:42] <xubuntu46w> hot to get from xubuntu terminal to my down sytem files
[20:45] <knome> xubuntu46w, to what?
[20:48] <xubuntu46w> hola i want to change /boot on onther ubuntu disk with xubuntu terminal
[20:48] <xubuntu46w> permission denied
[20:49] <xubuntu46w> i have new server want to change /boot partion to onther disk
[20:50] <genii> Your description is still very confusing
[20:50] <knome> umm.. why do you want to do that?
[20:50] <xubuntu46w> i toke down the server got up with xubuntu and i want to edit the down server /boot
[20:56] <xubuntu46w> need to rplace disk
[20:56]  * Luyin doesn't get it
[20:57] <xubuntu46w> cannot change boot on running system from disk to disk
[20:57] <Luyin> what do you mean, "from disk to disk"?
[20:57] <xubuntu46w> i have two hdd
[20:57] <Luyin> do you want to replace the hard drive on which your /boot data lies?
[20:57] <xubuntu46w> si
[20:58] <xubuntu46w> yes
[20:58] <Luyin> xubuntu46w: back it up, then move it?
[20:58] <xubuntu46w> i edit fstab
[20:59] <xubuntu46w> i want to change /boot
[20:59] <xubuntu46w> from disk to disk
[21:00] <xubuntu46w> already cp /olddisk/boot/* /newdisk/boot/
[21:01] <xubuntu46w> need to mv /olddisk/boot /olddisk/old.boot
[21:02] <xubuntu46w> i get device busy
[21:02] <xubuntu46w> so i got up with xubuntu
[21:02] <xubuntu46w> used xubuntu terminal to get into olddisk/boot
[21:03] <xubuntu46w> but cannot change it
[21:03] <xubuntu46w> no permission
[21:04] <xubuntu46w> comprendo ??
[21:04] <Luyin> no
[21:04] <Luyin> i still don't understand what you're trying to achieve
[21:04] <Luyin> sorry
[21:07] <flocculant> reads to me like - dead disk, replace dead disk with new one, set up new disk with information from old one
[21:07] <flocculant> possibly just needing to use sudo to do whatever's needed
[21:16] <xubuntu46w> no worries thenks any way i ll try to work with grub command
[21:19] <Luyin> this doesn't make any more sense to me now... flocculant I was thinking the same, but I'm reluctant to advise somebody giving such vague information about what he's trying to do to use sudo :D
