Is this a reasonable place to ask? [06:25] The reason I'm contemplating this is that a known-bug in unattended-upgrade means a long-running production system has run out of inodes, so now I can't run apt-get update -f because it complains of not enough disk space, so the tools are broken which I would normally use to fix the problem.. [06:25] The issue is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1089195 [06:25] Launchpad bug 1089195 in update-manager (Ubuntu) "linux-headers will eat your inodes on LTS."

I don't remember exactly, but it had something to do with the fact that ubuntu change from initd to systemd. I can use "mongod start" just find but not "service mongod start". currently I reinstall mongo 2.6 but would to use 3.2. [06:46] yoofoo: hmm yeah haven't tried 15.10 yet still on 14.04 here so not sure where to look there really, haven't really had much troubleshooting experience with Mongo itself aside from getting it working with the Mongo PHP module on 14.04 [06:47] wafflejock, no worries. I appreciate your comment [06:47] wafflejock: interesting. But I'm worried if I erase one and then reboot, I will have erased one it is planning to switch to on the reboot. or that I will erase the one the system is using now. Any thought on how to figure that out? [06:48] algal: well best if you can use apt-get to remove them, can try sudo apt-get autoremove, to see if it's able to clean them up, if it can't run that command you might need to manually delete some stuff first, can maybe see if you have anything in your /tmp or your /var/log that you can clean up to free up a little space to run apt-get [06:48] it can't. [06:49] hmm.. good idea.. maybe /tmp or /var/log has something heavy. [06:49] it's not actually space that's limited, its inodes. [06:49] algal: yeah have just done that before when I had similar issues [06:49] only 434 used in /var/log, and 2 used in /tmp. But I've got 340,000 in use on the system (99%) of capacity. [06:50] yeah if you can just free enough so apt-get can open logs or whatever it needs to do then can autoremove or purge some of the older versions you can see when you `ls -al /usr/src` [06:51] think I ran into that issue on a BeagleBone or RasPi or something [06:51] Do you know if there are commands to tell which kernel version is active or is targeted for use at the next reboot? Or I could try attaching a new drive and moving some directories onto another partition, since i think the inode limit is per partition. [06:52] `uname -a` will show you the current kernel version [06:52] not sure about next reboot really though [06:52] anything before that version should be fine to clean up though [06:53] thanks! === O01eg is now known as ShadowBlaze18 [06:54] no prob [06:58] why are ubuntu servers so slow [06:58] slowness, probs [06:58] getting a 20 kbps download speed [06:58] and i am sure its not my internet [06:58] well it's probably your internet [06:59] i just downloaded a file from firefox at 600 kbps lol [06:59] i m sure its not my net..

Haven't seen any that I couldn't install that way. [12:06] Wulf: ok thanks what BIOS settings do you use for pxe boot [12:06] akincana: depends. Sometimes I try to disable anything uefi related.

[12:18] vi helloworld.py [12:18] root7: that is more a python issue than an ubuntu issue. i would suggest to ask in #python for beginners documentation.

[12:19] I come from mandriva and has a drakstats that will give you a measure of the use of rpm packages installed by their package manager, how often they are used.

I have edit both the UID_MIN and GID_MIN in /etc/login.defs to 500, but still I am having no luck. Is there something I missed? [12:34] what's the difference between say "dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb" and "dd=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb/mybackup.img" ? [12:34] C_Minus: the later won't work [12:34] the former will [12:36] ikonia do you see what i was trying to do though? how do i make an "image" file? [12:36] Heyo [12:36] C_Minus: you write it to a file system, not a device file [12:36] My laptop uses UEFI and Secure Boot [12:36] the file system must not be on the device you are copying from [12:37] I tried installing while secure boot was turned on, no UEFI boot entries to be found [12:37] Then I turned secure boot off, but now the livedvd is slow as hell [12:38] so i would need to mount the target destination, move to some directory on it and say "dd if=/dev/sda of=~/mybackup.img"? [12:38] hello [12:39] C_Minus: correct, as long as ~/ is not on /dev/sda{1,2,3,4,5,6,whatever} you're fine [12:39] Also, my laptop supports adding Secure Boot Keys to the system [12:40] so in one case (sda -> sdb entire clone) you don't need to mount anything. but to make an image FILE (i.e. in a filesystem) you need to mount the destination and write it there? [12:40] what is the advantage of making the image file over the first approach (if any?) [12:41] C_Minus: you seem to want the image file - so you must know the advantage for you [12:41] hello all i have some promblem when i connect with putty on one of my servers i get an error server sent disconnect message type 2 this error ecour just with one of my servers [12:41] i'm using ubuntu 14.10 [12:42] C_Minus: there are pros/cons, it's just down to the users needs, just keep in mind it is a block by block copy [12:42] i` 14.10 is dead [12:42] !eol | i` [12:42] i`: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information.

[12:52] ReScO: no [12:53] i`: your session is being terminated, look in the auth log and syslog to get a clue, most probably network related, [12:53] I would suggest upgrading to a supported releaes to take this forward, use the console if there is a risk of disconnection during the upgrade [12:54] ikonia thanks i will look [12:54] I'm trying to install 15.10, I already have to use nouveau.modeset=0 as boot flag to get it to boot into LightDM [12:55] Otherwise X won't even start [12:55] i`: try unchecking "Attempt GSSAPI authentication (SSH-2 only)" in your putty settings [12:55] Yoo !

[13:05] !uefi [13:05] UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [13:05] Already read through it [13:05] ReScO: it should be documnted on the install page [13:05] Followed all steps [13:05] or the link MonkeyDust has just provided [13:05] Didn't work [13:05] Hey #ubuntu [13:06] so you need to feed back why didn't work to people and they can try to help [13:06] ReScO: might be possible that your device needs some special treatment. so i would look out for experiences with your exact device. [13:06] After installing it boots straight into the bios [13:06] Ubuntu's EFI entry is nowhere to be found [13:06] resco use win32diskimager [13:06] that suggests the efi partition is not there [13:06] ReScO: ok - so now you know the problem, the efi boot section is missing, [13:07] I want to put Windows on my Ubuntu Laptop, most likely 7, and I'm not sure the steps needed for it. I probably want to dual-boot, not use a VM. [13:07] ikonia: I've placed the EFI partition on the grub disk [13:07] you can either try to work out why, or manually correct it [13:07] Which was sdb [13:07] !dualboot | Java_ [13:07] Java_: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot [13:07] Then tried to place the EFI partition on SDA along with grub [13:07] Java_: if possible install windows then ubuntu, if not, install ubuntu then windows and manually correct the boot loader [13:07] No dice [13:07] Java_, select 'install alongside Windows 7' in install [13:08] Java_: make room for a partition. then install windows into that partition. then re run the ubuntu usb to get the ubuntu bootloader again [13:08] Perfect. Thanks guys. [13:09] Java_, your welcome. [13:09] ReScO: I usually create a fat32 /boot/efi partition and leave /boot on the / partition. [13:09] soupnanodesukar: that was my guess aswell, did that on the first try [13:11] ReScO: your bios should also have a legacy CSM boot mode. I would suggest using that if possible in this case. [13:11] I can use CSM, but doesn't that boot way slower? [13:11] no [13:11] zero impact on boot [13:12] Ahh [13:12] Will do that then [13:12] No more high res boot splash tho [13:12] it can do hi-res boot splash just fine === cobra-the-joker1 is now known as mrz80-lptp [13:21] I keep getting this error on ubuntu 14.04 === Amm0n| is now known as Amm0n [13:21] perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = (unset), LC_ALL = (unset), LANG = "en_IN" [13:21] and what are you doing to get that error === bianca is now known as Guest4349 [13:22] as it's complaining your locale is not set correctly [13:22] when i open folder and minimize it,when i click on files it open another directory to home not the minmize folder,how can i make it always restore the minimize folder first === Joel is now known as Guest20451 [13:24] Bassem roll with the middle mouse button over the opened nautilus icon [13:25] nautilus/files [13:26] MonkeyDust, thanks thats work fine,,where i can learn such this things [13:26] !manual | Bassem [13:26] Bassem: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents.

[13:36] i'll go back to my live environment and try again... [13:36] what was the command you used [13:36] and the fact that it's a livecd can also be a factor here as the livecd runs in RAM, so you can "over flow it" [13:39] ikonia, CSM was enabled, still had EFI, apparently my laptop won't do BIOS [13:39] ReScO: you have no legacy mode ? [13:39] Nope [13:39] ReScO: you'll have to work the problem through then [13:39] CSM was enabled, installer told me to add a EFI partition [13:40] I'm assuming the EFI partition should be on the same disk as the / partition [13:40] this is all covered in the install doc [13:40] and the disk doesn't matter, as long as the pre-boot-environment can read it [13:43] do-release-upgrade isn't working for me... http://pastebin.com/u7gWMtFv [13:43] ubuntu 12.04.5 [13:43] so the repo you are using is 404'ing [13:43] look at the repo [13:43] ikonia i'm back in my live usb environment. it went a bit further before throwing error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14912417/ [13:43] update my sources.list?

[15:23] The best way to do that is a clean install, but you can install the ubuntu-gnome-desktop package [15:23] And then purge unity [15:23] Hmm, I think I'll try to find some other solutions first [15:23] Unless you want to keep it for some reason [15:24] Masao-Kun: why are you even suggesting that?

[15:25] Also Masao-Kun if you install a theme called "ambiance flat" do you really expect a big change with the regular ambiance theme? [15:25] AlexPortable: at this point there is no difference. [15:26] will there be in the future? [15:26] Yes, it's a separate theme [15:26] AlexPortable: -flashback is a transitional package for -flashback [15:26] Err, -fallback is [15:26] what is transitional?

Is there any good way to access box.com on Ubuntu that is not just WebDAV? (Which I assume is slow) [17:14] codydh is this page useful https://community.box.com/t5/Managing-Your-Content/tkb-p/GetHelpManage [17:15] codydh: https://community.box.com/t5/Box-Sync/Box-Sync-4-x-FAQs/ta-p/83#synclinux === M132T003C is now known as legitnick1 [17:16] Right, I've seen a few third-party sync clients and was wondering if there were any good ones/recommendations. But perhaps not. [17:17] codydh: this seems to use the webdav backend, but syncs to a directory, you could probably rig up the same thing with an rsync cronjob tbh, https://github.com/noiselabs/box-linux-sync [17:17] codydh: webdav is normally fine though imo, why don't you like it? [17:18] ok guys I got netbeans installed and running [17:18] the bonus is I got the latest version installed [17:18] see fellas === oleg is now known as Guest6522 [17:18] bye [17:19] SchrodingersScat, I will check it out. In the past I've always found WebDAV to be painfully slow, maybe that's no longer the case? [17:19] codydh: wouldn't that depend on the server, your settings, and what you're syncing? [17:20] SchrodingersScat, Of course that all affects it, but I've never actually had it perform well. Again, it's been a while. [17:21] codydh: you could maybe mount it as an ownCloud mount, use the owncloud client, also comes with webdav, you could webdav your webdav. [17:22] i need support [17:22] i used a hexeditor in linux, connected it to the reader-memory (sdb) and changed by search and replace manually all version strings found on the disk to 1.0.00.09010. the strings are easy to find, because they are in ASCII and readable in hexedit. {there is a script on the diag-partition of the reader-memory (version_check.sh). you can start this script via console and see all version-strings you have to search and replace on the disk. [17:22] i dont get how to this task [17:23] I don't get why you'd want to. [17:23] hehe, i need to downgrade a firmware of a ebook reader [17:23] summa how is that ubuntu related? [17:23] i installed a hexeditor for ubuntu but i only can navigate to files [17:24] i m using ubuntu and donno where else to ask for [17:24] summa 'a hexeditor'? from the repos? [17:24] maybesomebody can explain me that [17:24] summa: better see the ebook readers community if that will work at all or what else to do [17:24] didnt found hexedit so i get wxHexeditor [17:25] summa: sounds more like an ebook issue to me. [17:25] summa: A hex editor is specifically designed to only edit files. What are you trying to do? [17:25] !find hexeditor [17:25] Found: wxhexeditor, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W: (and 4 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=hexeditor&searchon=names&suite=wily§ion=all [17:25] described above, but i didnt can open my reader-memory [17:25] what he ius trying to explain? [17:27] what does he mean with connecting the reader-memory (Sdb) to the hexeditor, how to di it? [17:27] *do [17:27] who is this 'he'? [17:28] summa who are you talking about? [17:28] pretend we haven't been taking this journey with you [17:28] a anon from a mobileread forum [17:28] i used a hexeditor in linux, connected it to the reader-memory (sdb) and changed by search and replace manually all version strings found on the disk to 1.0.00.09010. the strings are easy to find, because they are in ASCII and readable in hexedit. {there is a script on the diag-partition of the reader-memory (version_check.sh). you can start this script via console and see all version-strings you have to search and replace on the disk. [17:28] summa i guess you're not in the right place [17:28] does it make any sense? [17:29] That sounds insane, but that's like my opinion, man. I would be hesitant to blindly change strings on a disk. You do you though. [17:29] i only want to know what he is refering to and how to fgure out what and how to do [17:29] kk [17:29] i am sorry for bothering, buty any idea where else to look for support? [17:30] summa: what device is it? [17:32] its a sony prs t1 [17:32] ebook reader === legitnick1 is now known as d481a3 [17:35] kk [17:35] summa: ok, found the thing you were referencing, http://community.sony.com/t5/Reader-Electronic-Reader/PRS-T1-Reinstalling-firmware/td-p/460702 so yeah, if you made the changes and it didn't work, check with him. [17:35] !rootirc | PR13ST [17:35] PR13ST: It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. === felda is now known as billythefish [17:35] thanks, but I want to find out where to look to make the changes [17:37] hi my friends [17:38] homa stop saying hi so often [17:38] 'lo [17:39] i once ran a game-server as root by mistake. it stole all resources from other programs.

[17:58] Got WoW to run without any problems lol [17:58] Smooth as hell [17:58] Yeah, and my USB is slow as heck. [17:59] Problem with no graphics was a missing /var/lib/lightdm folder by the way.. [17:59] I run Ubuntu MATE on a USB 2.0 16 GB while a 8 GB performs better. [17:59] The same type. [18:02] supercats: usb pen drives have different write and read speed. if you want to have speed dont use it on a usb at all. [18:05] k1l : I don't have any other options, and do r/w speeds matter when opening an application? lubuntu is fast, ubuntu MATE in the middle and Mint - I don't event want to talk about it. [18:05] supercats: yes. [18:07] k1l : the thing is I use a cruzer blade. 16 gb is worse than 8 gb. like they are the same size and same USB after all. Anyway, still these very lightweight are performing really well. [18:08] supercats: if you've tested both and literally the only difference in your tests is the USB that you are using, I got to think it's a hardware issue [18:10] tgm4883 : Yeah, I used only one laptop and the same version of Mint and the one performed better than the other one. === ^cj^ is now known as ^CJ^ [18:10] supercats: then I have to blame the USB for that [18:10] tgm4883 : OK. [18:11] But I had some other issue with 'casper-rw' partition. It just booted straight to BusyBox. === d481a3_ is now known as cib0 [18:11] With Ubuntu 15.10 and 14.04 LTS === billythefish is now known as son1dow [18:15] good bye my friends [18:15] hello [18:16] homa: Bye [18:16] techno2900: Hello [18:16] good bye supercats [18:17] supercats : I've just started with ubuntu and I would like some advice on that little by little I replace windows 10 by ubuntu [18:18] !manual | techno2900 start here [18:18] techno2900 start here: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents.

It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [23:02] knt-newb: That's quite vague, but probably refers to some terminal emulator..? [23:02] Well, it doesn't specifically need to be a 1mb partition at the beginning of the disk [23:02] That description honestly sounds more like the boot partition required in a GPT/BIOS setup [23:02] Geirha ... well i need alot of things explained , so im sorry [23:02] can I just not boot in uefi mode somehow? [23:03] knt-newb: Maybe if you provide some context. Are you reading a book? a guide? [23:04] k1l: i see part of the problem after reading when i did apt-get update, its not using the official repos [23:04] Hit http://ubuntu.mirrors.ovh.net trusty/multiverse Translation-en_GB etc [23:04] ninjai: Out of curiosity, what caused grub to stop working? Any idea? [23:04] power outage [23:05] geirha ... from what i read its an underlying command prompt symilar to ms cmd prompt [23:05] ninjai: Also, you mentioned your ext4 partition and your swap partition...are those the only partitions you have at all? [23:05] LambdaComplex: yes [23:05] so i tried to apt-get autoremove but it wouldnt remove , said /tmp was full, or when i ran df -h it said overflow 1.0M 0 1.0M 0% /tmp what causes this ? [23:06] ninjai: Um...was that working before? Because there's no way for UEFI to work without an EFI System Partition [23:06] I have no idea, but it was booted [23:06] hello guys [23:06] im having trouble installing ubuntu mate [23:06] so what should I do here? Create a 2mb partition at the beginning of the drive and apply the grub_boot flag to it and see if it boots? [23:07] ninjai: I don't think you're actually doing UEFI booting [23:07] when i click continue in installation, the button stays grey forever [23:07] knt-newb: the windows cmd prompt is both a terminal and a shell. In Unix and Unix-like systems, terminals and shells are completely separate programs [23:07] LambdaComplex: I'm not sure. I have a UEFI motherboard and if I pound F11 on boot I get a boot menu, if I select my SSD I just get a blinking cursor forever [23:08] can someone briefly explain what i might be missing . i cannot browse a local area network at home through my ethernet connection.

Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/samba.html [23:08] geirha ... ok ty [23:09] knt-newb: So I'm still not sure what you are referring to in that regard [23:09] Dear all, unfortunately I have accidentally flushed iptables on Ubuntu [23:10] I had a rule saying "ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp dpt:bootpc [23:10] " [23:10] how to reinsert it? Thank you :) [23:11] ninjai: i suppose chrooting in and using grub-install and update-grub could work [23:11] I followed a guide with that once [23:11] and it worked [23:11] but for the life of me I can no longer find it [23:11] you just mount your drive to some dir [23:11] then do `chroot ` [23:12] and run grub-install as normal [23:12] lunarmage: would grub-install work without the mounts? [23:12] oh right I forgot abot that [23:12] lunarmage: http://pastebin.com/cRtdBvui [23:13] LambdaComplex: no it does not [23:13] i know lsblk doesn't at least [23:13] agh, i can never remember the mounts [23:13] brb lemme find the gentoo install guide [23:13] try mounting the /boot drive [23:13] ah, this is the guide: http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd [23:13] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#via_ChRoot [23:13] https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Base#Mounting_the_necessary_filesystems [23:14] i've always just used that. seems to work [23:14] anyone? [23:14] how would you find directories in /path that are specifically from the year 2014 ? [23:15] any time I try grub-install I get this: grub-install.real: warning: this GPT partition label contains no BIOS Boot Partition; embedding won't be possible. [23:15] ls -lA | grep "" [23:15] ninjai: wait, so you're doing GPT/BIOS? [23:15] in the format of <3 digit month> [23:16] i meant using find [23:16] LambdaComplex: I have no idea. help? [23:16] I accidentally flushed my iptables [23:16] the only rule I had was: ACCEPT ump -- anywhere anywhere ump dpt:bootpc [23:16] how to reinsert it? Thanks [23:17] stacks88: `man find` doesn't tell me anything about year, only precise times [23:18] ninjai: Check `sudo fdisk -l` and see if the Disklabel type is "gpt" or "dos" [23:18] (could just do `sudo fdisk -l | grep Disklabel` if you want i guess) [23:18] LambdaComplex: "WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sda'! The util fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted." [23:19] aubergine, did you try using iptables -h in a terminal. [23:19] system says GPT [23:19] Are you positive that it was booting before? [23:20] Because you're using GPT and yet you don't have any boot partition at all [23:20] squinty I just need to reset the rule [23:20] As far as I know, that should be impossible [23:20] I tried iptables -A ACCEPT ump -- anywhere anywheremump dpt:biotic --------- but it did not work [23:21] Is anyone in here by chance familiar with using EasyBCD/NeoGrub to boot Ubuntu along-side Windows? [23:21] LambdaComplex: yes it was booting. How can I reconfigure this to boot again? Create a boot partition at the beginning with gparted at the size of about 100mbit? [23:21] I've never heard of NeoGrub in my life [23:21] What is it and why would you use it in place of GRUB2? [23:22] ninjai: Really the first step is to check your bios and see if you're doing BIOS or UEFI booting. I'm assuming BIOS but find out for sure [23:22] ok, and what difference does that make? [23:22] I'm not really that informed of the differences between UEFI and BIOS booting on motherboards [23:23] UEFI requires a FAT32 partition [23:23] (the EFI System Partition) [23:23] BIOS does not; although GRUB does require a boot partition if you're doing GPT/BIOS [23:24] ok so, assuming I'm doing UEFI booting then my partition layout is acceptable? [23:24] I accidentally flushed my iptables [23:24] You said you only have 2 partitions? One's ext and the other is swap? [23:24] the only rule I had was: ACCEPT ump -- anywhere anywhere ump dpt:bootpc [23:24] yes [23:24] how to reinsert it? Thanks [23:24] No, that won't work for UEFI [23:25] So if it was working before then it's not UEFI [23:25] I accidentally flushed my iptables, the only rule I had was: ACCEPT ump -- anywhere anywhere ump dpt:biotic, how to reinsert it? Thanks :) [23:25] aubergine, think you have to run iptables-save to make it stick (not an expert on iptables though( [23:25] ok, so maybe then it's trying to now boot as UEFI but my partitions are not ready for that? [23:25] squinty iptables-restore does not work on my ubuntu (Azure VM limits) [23:26] ninjai: What were you doing when the power outage happened? Anything related to installing Ubuntu? [23:26] I was out of town when it happened :) [23:26] it was a running system when I left [23:26] I seriously don't even understand how a power outage could've caused this [23:26] me neither [23:27] I accidentally flushed my iptables, the only rule I had was: ACCEPT ump -- anywhere anywhere ump dpt:biotic, how to reinsert it? Thanks :) [23:27] I'm trying to install Ubuntu to dual boot with Windows 10. When I get to the "where to install" part of the installation, windows isn't showing up. It says "We detected no other OS installed" or something similar. I think it has to do with MBR/GPT partition scheme? Most of that is above my head though. Anyone know what I should do? [23:27] Maybe I magically booted it with some hackery (since I never shut of my computer) previously [23:27] because I did do this chrooting business once before [23:27] Heck, at this point I'd honestly just say try putting a boot partition at the start and see if that works [23:27] I'll reboot and check my UEFI/BIOS to see if I'm booting with it [23:27] aubergine: Please stop repeating yourself. We heard you the first time [23:28] ok how big [23:28] 100mbi? [23:28] Nah, like 1MB [23:28] ok [23:28] set the grub_boot flag? [23:29] aubergine: Querying me "fuck off" isn't going to help you any [23:31] Anyone have any idea for my issue? Tried following http://askubuntu.com/questions/343268/how-to-use-manual-partitioning-during-installation but was worried I was going to fuck something up the entire time [23:31] ninjai: Sounds right [23:31] hm, can I add anything to a shell script so that it opens a terminal? I feel a bit awkward killing ffmpeg with top [23:32] all right here goes [23:32] 40 min remaining. lol [23:32] I wrote it since the ffmpeg commands are too many to type every time [23:32] ninjai: 40 minutes? [23:33] good luck, ninjai, whatever you do (: [23:33] now it's an hour ETA [23:33] Haunt_House the command is gnome-terminal [23:34] MonkeyDust: do I put it in a line before the ffmpeg call? [23:34] hm, testing [23:35] Might have to use a flag for gnome-terminal [23:35] Check the man page [23:35] -A INPUT -p udp -m udp --dport 68 -j ACCEPT [23:35] get back to Windows guys [23:36] aubergine: please stop that bad advices out of frustration [23:36] He messaged me a few more profanities === freepoutine is now known as poutine [23:37] lambda - ninjai. i just built a dual boot vista ubuntu. on the hdd i had to make it gpt . then i partitioned 4 sections in gigs 30,30,5,400the first partition fat 32 all remaining ntfs. after vista went into part1, i ran the ubuntu install which added grub to the boot/ mbr process after that, part 2 (30 gig root)was formatted ext4 and the swap part 3 (5Gb). partition 4 (400GB) stayed ntfs and was sharable between the two OS's doub [23:37] took me two days but i won [23:39] ...Okay? === freakyfidlers is now known as ffs [23:39] Congrats? I have 3 Linux distros and Windows 7 installed [23:40] hmm .. scary [23:40] wow. I just need one distro to drive me nuts [23:40] my second or third try grub shot my master boot record to non existance. [23:41] I don't think your mbr is even relevant considering you're doing UEFI [23:41] Since Windows won't boot if you do GPT/BIOS [23:41] isn't Windows very finicky with UEFI dual boot with Linux? [23:42] well . u must be right , i spent about a day try ing to fix the mbr [23:42] lunarmage: Not that I've seen. Maybe you're thinking that windows fastboot thing? [23:42] any way the disk is a gpt disk [23:42] knt-newb: Wait, is your ESP 30 Gigs? [23:42] and the first partition is fat 32 [23:42] that was it, fastboot [23:42] sorry lol [23:43] knt-newb: Is that fat32 partition mounted at /boot or /boot/efi? [23:43] the whole disk is 470 gigs or so [23:44] idk . what is esp? [23:44] EFI System Partition [23:45] also when booting vista i go through grub and windows mbr dual boot prompt [23:45] i e i have to pick vista twice to boot it [23:45] I can't even get ubuntu installed properly lol [23:49] syntax hates me ( : [23:49] koan_: Booting presently in legacy mode and Windows is installed UEFI ? [23:49] koan_: thanks for the very helpful error code :) [23:50] so. i browsed the samba web page listed earlier , it says to run cmds like "sudo apt-get install cifs-utils" can anyone explain where and or how im supposed to enter these commands? [23:50] knt-newb: either a virtual terminal or a tty [23:50] or maybe i mean a terminal emulator [23:51] w/e [23:51] knt-newb: also the "how" is "with a keyboard" [23:51] lambda assume i know nothing and need my hand held all the way there [23:51] lol [23:52] do i have to walk you through opening a terminal emulator? [23:52] open up the "Terminal" application [23:52] and in it [23:52] x [23:52] write "sudo apt-get install cifs-utils" [23:52] Bashing-om: Yes I've got UEFI, lunarmage: haha np, I'm just afraid to fuck something up through manually partitioning as I'm kinda just blindly following guides and don't know exactly what I'm doing. Think I may try this http://askubuntu.com/questions/666631/how-can-i-dual-boot-windows-10-and-ubuntu-on-a-uefi-hp-notebook [23:52] and then press enter [23:52] that part's important [23:52] knt-newb: I think if u press cntrl+alt+t and terminal will apear. If it is default [23:52] koan_: then learn what you're doing! [23:52] LambdaComplex: don't forget the root password [23:53] err the user password [23:53] because sudo [23:53] !dualboot | koan_ Ours: [23:53] koan_ Ours:: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot [23:53] and because root is disabled by default anyways [23:53] LambdaComplex: I'd really like to, hard to know where to start though [23:53] koan_: honestly reading the arch linux wiki might help [23:53] knt-newb, just search for Samba in Ubuntu software center or type the following in a terminal sudo apt-get install samba [23:53] koan_: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Partitioning [23:54] MonkeyDust: thanks, it works now [23:54] knt-newb, that should install pretty much everthing you need for running samba [23:54] Bashing-om: Yes I've looked through those, wasn't extremely helpful.. LambdaComplex: ty for the link, I'll check that out now [23:55] aha! applications / terminal, xterm, uxterm. right [23:56] lol [23:56] The problem is that Windows 8 came with my PC, I erased it and installed Ubuntu and worked great. Then realized I needed windows still, was advised to erase disk again and install windows THEN install Ubuntu [23:56] koan_: As you are having such difficulties, Might show the channel the current partitioning . See if we can see an error ' sudo parted -l ' and we go from there . === rwd is now known as ezri [23:57] knt-newb, you might also want to install system-config-samba (GUI for managing samba shares and users ) if the Samba install doesn't include it as default [23:59] ok , one more good one. What does sudo represent in a command string?
