barryGuys how hard to learn C? Can C be used to control some aspect in linux system00:08
Revian1I've been off Linux for a bit. I recently came back and installed Ubuntu Wily.. Ubuntu has come a long way and I haven't seen any problems. Good job, devs!00:10
SahibPrimebarry: For me, C was a medium-difficulty programming language.00:12
Revian1How do I set gthumb to be the default app that opens when doubling-clicking a picture?00:12
barrySahibPrime: Curious. If C is medium-difficulty programming language, what would you rate for Php?00:14
SahibPrimebarry: Haven't tried PHP.00:15
barryOh, okay00:15
SahibPrimeBefore learning C, I would recommend a simpler object-oriented language.00:17
squintyRevian1,  right click on filename -> properties -> open with -> set as default  etc00:18

Revian1squinty, Well, that was easy. Thank you!00:19

ActinalWhompI have some broken entries in my grub menu (that showed up after running boot repair). If I install windows from a disk will that "clean" the efi partition? I'm fine with losing data/reinstalling ubuntu afterwards.00:25
SahibPrimeActinalWhomp: As far as I know, Windows overwrites GRUB.00:27
SahibPrimeYou could also format the disk, and reinstall Ubuntu.00:27
barryHow I can give a user read and write access to whole /var/www/html and its sub-directories?00:27
SahibPrimechmod [username]:[username] +RW /var/www/html00:27

ActinalWhompThanks.00:28
SahibPrimeNo problem.00:28
barrySahibPrime: chmod myusername:www-data +RW +RW /var/www/html/* . Like this right?00:30
Revian1SahibPrime, Doesn't he need chmod -R00:31
SahibPrimeRevian1: Oh sorry, -R. I thgouth that meant remove read permissions.00:31

he1kkiInteresting strategy. Swf-attack with apology.01:34

OerHeksapt-cache showpkg libcsound64-6.001:36
dellxps15probzdoes anyone here have any experience running ubuntu on a dell XPS 15 with touchscreen. I mean specifically getting the NVidia 960M GTX to work01:37
squintydpkg -S libcsound64-6.001:37
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, I have the m3800 ... no problems with nvidia01:37
dellxps15probzwell i kind of did something stupid. I installed it, everything was running great. Then i experienced slight issues playing videos fullscreen and decided to switch back to the nouveau driver from the Nvidia-361 and you can guess what happened...01:39
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, sorry, I can't see the screen from LOL ... but yeah, you done messed up.  did you remove the drivers or only switch?01:39
dellxps15probzjust switch01:40
dellxps15probzi changed them back to nvidia from root01:40
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, from root?  from ROOT??!!!01:40
dellxps15probzhowever the display is now 640x48001:40
dellxps15probzsorry shell prompt01:40
dellxps15probznot root01:40
dellxps15probzthe display is too larhge however01:41
dellxps15probzand and nvidia-settings won't detect the display anymore01:41
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, run system > additional drivers app.  it should pick up your NVIDIA binary driver.  select one of the proprietary options01:42
dellxps15probzyeah the drivers work now, but it no longer detects my display..my beautiful, BEAUTIFUL 4K touchscreen display, even in nvidia-settings...it's displaying 640x48001:43
sector_0cfhowlett, that page doesn't tell me how to determine if my version is the latest01:43
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, well, I've never changed anything from command line.  can't advise what or why.  ask again in channel --- someone will know01:44
dellxps15probzthanks01:44
cfhowlettsector_0, go to the site, find your card, check the version:  http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/linux01:45
dellxps15probzi mean i'm running x now, but it's just a profoundly screwed up display of 640x48001:45
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, well you don't really NEED 4k, right?  :)01:46
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, so what prompted you to switch drivers in the first place?  your end goal??01:46
dellxps15probzyeah but I would like normal sized icons01:46
dellxps15probzthe cursor is about the size of my thumb right now01:46
dellxps15probzi wanted videos to play smoother, there was some "choppiness" in the videos in fullscreen which I did not encounter when i first set up my system (it defaulted to nouveau)01:47
dellxps15probzi just wanted that smoothness back (even if I had to sacrifice the 4K)01:48
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, you mean playing 4k videos, right?01:48
dellxps15probzany videos01:48
dellxps15probzyoutube, what have you01:48
dellxps15probzanything that was playing was rendering correctly until i made it fullscreen01:49
cfhowlettthe only hiccup I've seen on my box have been full fledged 4k videos.01:49
dellxps15probzyeah that's why I had switched to nvidia in the first place01:49
dellxps15probzbetter rendering than nouveau01:49
dellxps15probzbut there has to be a way to get my machine to detect the display again01:50
nedstarknvidia won't release the specs so nouveau will never be as good01:50
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, whatever you did at command line changed ... something would be my guess.01:51
karstensragehow do you guys manage updating the distribution all the time?01:53
karstensragedo you run LTS for 3 years, then have some migration path to next LTS?01:54
dellxps15probzall i did was sudo apt-get install nvidia-36101:54
cfhowlettkarstensrage, different strokes.  personally, I do LTS only.  LTS > LTS upgrade is fully supported.01:54
inteuskarstensrage: I backup my stuff and fresh install to the next LTS01:54
dellxps15probzand them nvidia-xconfig01:54
dellxps15probz*then01:54
karstensragecfhowlett, does LTS -> LTS work reliably?01:54
karstensrageim wondering how people do this on 1000's of servers?01:55
karstensragebackup and install to fresh seems very tricky01:55
cfhowlettkarstensrage, IMO it does exactly what I need.  YMMV.  but servers tend to be conservative and go with LTS.  ask the #ubuntu-server channel for insights01:55
nedstarkthey don't.  they're using distros with 5 or 10 years until the next required upgrade01:55

dellxps15probzyes01:57
dellxps15probzhybrid01:57
Bashing-omdellxps15probz: ' sudo lshw -C display ' are both sets of drivers loaded ?01:59
dellxps15probzyes both sets are loaded01:59
dellxps15probzthank you so much, I will try it out and let you know in 2 mins01:59
cfhowlettBashing-om, ?  I ran that command and only the currently running driver is displayed02:00
cfhowletthttp://paste.ubuntu.com/14990772/02:00
Bashing-omdellxps15probz: Looking at the 'configuration' line ...02:01
Bashing-omcfhowlett: Ouch .. I could be out in left field .02:01
cfhowlettI thought the only driver you would see would be the currently operating driver ?02:02
Bashing-omcfhowlett: Well, yeah ... that makes the better sense . the current operating driver .02:03
cfhowlettBashing-om, so what command would list all available graphic drivers??02:03
Bashing-omcfhowlett: ' sudo ubuntu-drivers list ' to see that list .02:09
cfhowlettBashing-om, eh.... nope.  it displays the nvidia but not the intel.02:09
cfhowlettand now this problem is going to nag my brain02:10
dellxps15probzyeah i cant put my output here since im running an HTC tab however in configuration it says driver=nvidia02:11
dellxps15probzand for the intel controller it says driver=i91502:11
dellxps15probzwhich seems to be correct02:11
Bashing-omcfhowlett: Hummm .. yeah as Intel is built into the kernel ?? Take a look at the /var/log/Xorg.0.log to know what the system is doing ?02:11
cfhowlettBashing-om, huh.  this means that Intel support is rolled into the kernel?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/14990845/02:14
Bashing-omdellxps15probz: A conflict in Nvidia drivers ? what returns ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ' ?02:14
dellxps15probza list of all the nvidia drivers02:15
Bashing-omcfhowlett: That is the way I read it " intel(0): Using Kernel Mode Setting driver: i915, version 1.6.0 20141121 " Kernel mode setting is a kernel thingy, no ?02:17
cfhowlettone would think.02:17
Bashing-omdellxps15probz: In that output .. the leading field is the status .. looking at 'ii' is there more than one version listed as 'ii' ?02:18
dellxps15probzBashing-om, cfhowlett, I fixed my problem. I would like to thank you both sincerely for putting your time and effort into helping me02:19
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, happy2help!02:19
dellxps15probzi ended up simply deleting /etc/X11/xorg.conf and rebooting and for some reason that worked!02:19
cfhowlettdellxps15probz, you have been visited by the magical ubuntu elves then.02:19
Bashing-omdellxps15probz: great ! Not the 1st time I have seem that happen .02:20
Bashing-omseen*02:21
Bashing-omdellxps15probz: I can imagine that you will need to regenerate the xorg.conf file with the nvidia driver active . ( that file gets switched out depending on which graphics set is current ) .02:26
dellxps15probzI'm actually doing that right now02:26
dellxps15probzi also think i should just purge the system of the nouveau driver02:26
dellxps15probzto prevent this from ever happening again02:27
Bashing-omdellxps15probz: Should be no need of purging nouveau as the Nvidia installer will black list it .02:28

Bashing-omdellxps15probz: Nvidia recommends the 352 version driver : http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/97645/en-us . with some reservations have you tried the 352 version ?02:32
dellxps15probzi have, it was better than the 361. although my system now shows 361 ad recommended02:33
=== andreh_ is now known as Evol

cfhowlettgoddard, what does this command return:  more /etc/issue03:48
ynixOk, of course I know that a wipe will remove everything. Was just curious if that partition was on some rom in the computer instead of the SSD, but I guess not.03:49
cfhowlettynix, have to ask the mac or OSX experts that03:50
ynixYeah I probably should ask over there.03:50
ynixHas anyone had experience with running on a Macbook Air? I'm afraid that it might be more trouble than its worth. I'm currently emulating Ubuntu in a VM, but the performance is a bit lacking for my taste.03:51
cfhowlettynix, try a lighter ubuntu: lubuntu or xubuntu03:51
ynixIt's not really the OS itself that is lagging, mostly the web browsers are.03:52
ynixIt's not much different on Xubuntu, which I've tried out.03:52
ynixI happen to like Unity a lot.03:52

wtfubuntubuntu is playing psychological warfare on me.  I got it up and running (14.04).  Got my mount issue on the Plex drive fixed.  Got everything copied over.  Right as I'm ready to set it up in a corner,  headless, it won't boot without a monitor plugged in.  Luckily, Plex and Teamviewer do load as services but I don't want to have a monitor on it constantly.  Found a way to enter a dummy monitor in xorg.conf which seems to work.04:11

Gallomimiahey can someone teach me how to remount a drive with no permissions?04:38
Gallomimiathe uid's don't match. things are goofy04:39
Jordan_UGallomimia: For most filesystems there is bo such option. Please describe your problem further.04:41
GallomimiaJordan_U: the disk is hfs+ and i used to use it on my mac. all the uid's are wrong and some of the folders are marked as "i don't have permission". it's an external drive USB3, and i just want to copy files off it. even r/o would be fine04:52
cfhowlettGallomimia, suggestion: assume that you are about to destroy unrecoverable data.  image the drive and work on the image, not the source04:55
Gallomimiacopying data off and reformatting is the goal04:55
cfhowlettsame advice ...04:55
Gallomimiahm. image it. or dupe it to another disk. good idea.04:55

cfhowlettGallomimia, http://www.ehow.com/how_4924091_clone-hard-drive-linux.html05:02
Jordan_UGallomimia: What type of files are on this drive? Is preserving file attributes important? You can always use "sudo" along with cp or rsync for copying the files.05:06
Jordan_UGallomimia: (But for backing up something like an OSX installation making a simple file copy would lose important file attributes)05:07
GallomimiaJordan_U: mostly larger data files. movies, stuff like that. file attributes are irrelevant05:13

SonuLambdaComplex, here is  exactly what i am trying "root@forums-staging2:~# scp sl-004@sl-004:/home/sl-004/Downloads/test.php  /var/www"06:13
Sonui am hitting this command with correct file name this is the correct that i have written above06:14
Jordan_USonu: That will attempt to copy "/home/sl-004/Downloads/test.php" from the host "sl-004@sl-004" to the machine from which you are running scp. Is that what you intend?06:14
SonuJordan_U," /home/sl-004/Downloads/test.php" this is my local machine path06:15
Jordan_USonu: Then your command is incorrect. Let's start by getting some things clarified. Lets use "local" to mean the machine you're sitting at and "remote" for the client's machine for now, no matter which you're running commands from.06:17
Sonuokay06:17
Jordan_USonu: I assume that you want to copy /home/sl-004/Downloads/test.php from your local machine to /var/www/ on the remote machine. Is that correct?06:18
Sonuyes06:18
Sonufirst one is my machine and second path is remote machine06:18
Jordan_USonu: And is the shell you're running scp from running on the local machine or the remote machine?06:19
Sonuyes06:19
Jordan_USonu: That was not a yes or no question.06:20
Jordan_USonu: Is "forums-staging2" the hostname of the local machine or of the remote machine?06:20
Sonuremote machine06:21
Sonuremote machine host name06:21
Sonuright now, i am at the root directory of remote connection.06:22
Jordan_USonu: OK. Then it looks like from what you posted earlier you're trying to run scp from within your ssh session. This is probably not a good idea as it will likely confuse you, and initiating a connection in the other direction may not be possible (due to NAT/firewall) anyway.06:22
Sonuright now, i am at the root directory of remote connection(client_server)06:22
Jordan_USonu: You should open a new terminal on your local machine and run scp from there.06:22
Sonuokay with remote host ?06:23
Jordan_USonu: I don't understand your question, could you please rephrase it?06:23
LambdaComplexSonu: What Jordan_U is saying is that you should run scp from your local machine _without_ being sshed into the client's machine06:24
Sonuokay LambdaComplex06:24
SonuJordan_U, this is example command that i got from internet "scp /home/rob/pictures/donuts/half-eaten.jpg rob@server3:/home/mywebsite.com/public_html/images/"06:25
LambdaComplexAnd actually, I don't even think we've addressed your original problem06:26
LambdaComplexWhich is that scp doesn't know the ip address you're trying to use06:26
Sonui have to run this command from my local machine and have to put username@host: in above command06:27
LambdaComplexUse the ip address, not the hostname06:27
Jordan_ULambdaComplex: My guess is that Sonu's local machine isn't even accessible from the internet, but is instead probably behind NAT at their house.06:27
LambdaComplexJordan_U: Well, that is possible too. But his original command had `sl-004@sl-004` and I doubt that he has that hostname defined in his hosts file06:28
SergioEDuran1Hi06:29
Jordan_ULambdaComplex: I'm almost certain that's the hostname of their local machine, which of course is not available via public DNS. We know that initiating the connection from the local machine works, and have multiple indications that the reverse will fail, so I think we should just stick to connecting from local to remote rather than visa-versa.06:31
Sonuwait let me explain the whole thing..06:31
Sonui have created public key then i have connected with client's server using terminal.06:31
SonuNow i have to copy some files from my local machine to client's server.06:31
Sonui am hitting this copy command from client's server. Now i am back to my local machine.06:32
SonuNow what you are saying i have to hit this copy command from my local machine path not the client's server. Is that right ?06:33
LambdaComplexWhat we're saying is that you do not need to connect to the client's server with the ssh command prior to copying files with the scp command06:34
LambdaComplexSo, if I'm understanding you correctly, then yes, you're right06:34
=== bq_____ is now known as rrr
SonuLambdaComplex, i am trying but it says Permission denied (publickey).06:39
StmeterSonu: It is possible your SSH keys on the box may not have the proper permissions. Double check the permissions and check that they key is the correct one. If you're still having issues, try connecting to SSH using verbose mode to find a more detailed error.06:43

SergioEDuran1I am using an non Unity DE with the indicators and for example the sound indicator's menu when I start playing some song (when the dropdown menu should be expanded to show the cover art) instead of grow it keeps the size and adds an up arrow at the top and an down arrow at the buttom of the  menu06:49
SergioEDuran1this is anoying06:50
Sonuwell i am on my local machine "sl-004:~$ scp /path to my file  clientusername@hostname:/path to copy file on client side"06:50

Jordan_USeveas: I'm not convinced that it's in their bashrc and it will let them run a shell where it's easier to find more information. I was under the impression that there is no local access to this machine and that loging in via ssh (using bash by default) fails completely.07:05
omerd34does anyone have any idea how to get the link to work?07:06

GerowenAnybody know why OpenShot would leave empty space at the end of a timeline when you trim a video?  Screenshot: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6017319/Screenshots/openshot-leftoverspace.png08:41
GerowenBasically I had 30 seconds of black after the actual end of my video in the rendered product.08:41
optimistic7how can i format the harddisk from bios?08:46
optimistic7how can i format the harddisk from bios?08:47
knoppixhello08:48
Gerowenoptimistic7: I don't believe that's possible.  A computer's BIOS is generally just some very basic settings and a set of instructions to help other software, like your operating system, communicate with the hardware.08:49
Gerowenoptimistic7: It would of course depend on the computer.  I would assume "some" of them have an option to wipe or format a drive, like mobile devices can "wipe" their storage and restore a factory default image, etc.08:49
optimistic7actually i broke my system, and i want to format my harddisk. I can't boot into my os. i have no option to delete my data?08:52
optimistic7how to fix it?08:52
GerowenJust use something like GParted Live.  Put it on a thumb drive or burn it to a CD and boot from that.08:52
GerowenIt is basically a minimalist Linux Live CD that runs in RAM and lets you create and delete partitions, reformat drives, etc.08:53
Sailor10120hi guys, I have little problem with my Ubuntu. when I start PC, take a long time to boot. after few sec. I can see login screen, but it's jammed, After some time (about 30s) automatically started working normally and I can log in.... un ubuntu gnome I have same problem but i have to wait not just for a login screen, but also after log in, to normal desktop...08:53
optimistic7but how can i delete my old data, actually it is windows xp data?08:54
GerowenYou could even use the Ubuntu installer if you have one.  Just boot the Ubuntu disc and when it has the options to "Try" or "Install" just click "Try" and when you get to the desktop, just click on the menu and open the "Disks" program and you can use that to do the same thing.08:54
lukesoftHie guys, How do i recieve http posts in a wordpress plugin08:54
GerowenWhen you delete a partition the data is effectively deleted.  If you're really paranoid about it, I believe GParted has an option to overwrite blank space with zeroes, but don't quote me on that, I haven't used it in a while.08:55
GerowenWhen you delete a partition and create a new one in its place, when you mount it, it will be empty.08:55

Kartagisgood morning by the way09:29
EightynineGood morning.09:30
Jordan_UEightynine: It's possible that it will time out eventually, I would wait at least 10 minutes, and before pulling the plug use sysrq magic. Are you able to log in via another tty when this happens?09:30

hateballBenami: do you have any other machine with the same version of ubuntu, connected to the internet?13:13
cfhowlettAlexPortable, interesting problem!  I suggest you post this to /r/opensourcephotography and the G+ group.  I seem to recall this is doable but looking for the link13:14
cfhowlettAlexPortable, OK, darktable has a geotagging function which you can apply to a group of photos13:14
BenamiNo. I just have the one machine. The closest thing I have would be my Android phone lol13:15
BenamiIs it a difficult process?13:15
BenamiI've got the gnucash-2.6.11.tar.bz2 downloaded and saved onto my memory stick, but something tells me it's not going to be a process made simple lol13:16
hateballBenami: if you have your phone, cant you just tether the machine?13:16
AlexPortablecfhowlett: darktable is a program?13:16
cfhowlettAlexPortable, right.  I think you are looking at tagging in an external app then loading to the maps13:16
cfhowlettAlexPortable, yes, photo editing13:16

AlexPortablewell the screenshot I sent you is from photoplace13:16
AlexPortablehttp://www.photoplace.io/13:16
AlexPortablebut this only works with inserted GPS data into the photo13:17
cfhowlettAlexPortable, darktable doesn't care where the gps data comes from13:17
hateballBenami: if the phone supports USB tethering it should be pretty painless13:17
hateballBenami: if you have a working internet connection all you need to do is "sudo apt-get install gnucash"13:18
cfhowlettAlexPortable, I must still be missing something.  does photoplace NOT do what you want?13:18

linuxlovei have problem with netbeans in ubuntu it cant open firefox13:45
hateballKDE has this mouse feedback functionality built in under accessibility13:45
hateballSo I would assume Unity has something similar13:45
lotuspsychjelinuxlove: did you install netbeans from repos?13:46
linuxlovelotuspsychje, no from a script netbeans.sh13:46
BlackVenomI have just mounted a new hard drive but when I try to 'cd' into the '/media/movies' I am told permission denied13:47
linuxlovelotuspsychje, what should i do?13:47
lotuspsychjelinuxlove: its recommended to use the version, specific for your ubuntu versions from repos13:47
BlackVenomHow do I gain access to it?13:48
lotuspsychjelinuxlove: try also the #netbeans channel13:48
rillehBlackVenom: How did you mount it?13:48
rillehWhat filesystem is it?13:48
BlackVenomhey rilleh13:48
BlackVenomIt's a HDD with existing data on it with the ext4 filesystem on it13:49
BlackVenomI manually mounted it with 'sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/movies13:50
rillehEasiest would be just to change permission on the files on it13:50

BlackVenomThis is what I thought rilleh13:52
LambdaComplexBlackVenom: Well, what's the permission of /media/movies?13:53
BlackVenomIf I do 'ls -l /media/movies' the owner = root and the group = users13:53
LambdaComplexCheck with `ls -l /media` and see if your user has read perms13:53
BlackVenomSo I added my user, simon to the users group and still can't gain access13:54

cfhowlettEightynine, I thought it was a typo, but I don't see anything on line 1 in error ...16:36
EriC^^Guest73806: the site you gave says that by manually entering the wireless stuff in /etc/network/interfaces they were able to connect, so it might not be a driver problem, it's a networkmanager problem or a wpa_supplicant problem most likely16:36
WeiJunLicfhowlett: :(16:36
Guest73806eric when network manager comes up the options click boxes seem to be grayed out so i cannot select the boxes16:37

daftykinsrizi: boot a live session from USB or DVD and confirm they match up to the ones in /etc/fstab17:45
rizidaftykins, okay i will try this17:46
daftykinsNedal: ok so this sounds like wifi... what's the adapter in use? "lspci" for PCI cards or "lsusb" for USB dongles can help, or even "sudo lshw -C network" in a pastebin - you can use some portable storage to share the output from a system that is online17:46

daum_thanks! will check that out18:12
EriC^^Guest73806: it should either downgrade it successfully, then try restarting, or it'll complain like mine did, then try sudo apt-get -f install to fix it maybe ( it'll use stuff already on the pc )18:12
rizidaftykins, so i tried booting from usb and then mount /dev/sda3 where ubuntu is installed but it gave error "invalid argument"18:13
Guest73806eric can you paste ecaxtly what i should do18:13
Felishiahelp18:13
EriC^^Guest73806: sudo dpkg -i /libnl*18:14

KlausedSourceI want to make "ls -l" always be "ls -l with-time=long-iso". Tried putting an alias for this in bashrc but it seems like alias do not work with parameters is this correct? how can I accomplish what I am looking for?18:24
llutzgjung: you cannot change that value, you only change the actual speed18:24
daftykinsKlausedSource: the #bash folks can probably help with that, most likely you issued the alias wrong18:24
gjungbut nothing change18:25
llutzgjung: how do you check the speed?18:26
llutzgjung: the actual speed18:26
dlamhey is there a conventional name for the /var/run/ folder?   i'm calling it the "pid folder" right naow  :D18:27
mcphailKlausedSource: you can define a function, then make "ls" an alias to that function18:27
gjungdmesg | grep tty18:28
KlausedSourcemcphail, how would that work? never done functions in bash18:28
KlausedSourcemcphail, I assume by "define a function" you are refering to bash18:29
llutzgjung: dmesg DOESN'T tell you the actual speed setting. use stty/setserial to read the setting18:29
mcphailKlausedSource: yes. You just define a function in bash like "afunction() { do stuff here }" and add it to bashrc. Then alias ls to that function. Your function would have to parse parameters and either pass the unhindered to the _real_ ls or (if you select -l) add your extra parameter. Rather messy, but it would work18:31
rizidaftykins, here is the output of sudo parted -l paste.ubuntu.com/14995219/18:31
gjungcan you tel me the comand18:32
llutzgjung: i did." sudo stty -F /dev/ttyS0"18:32
mcphailKlausedSource: what most people would do, though, is just create a new alias for your "ls -l whateverelse" command (i.e. lsll)18:32

melodiedaftykins I don't think so18:50
melodiethis is purely a matter of insight within the Ubuntu community18:50
daftykinsok, well you're welcome to disagree... but since the kernel defines the support... i don't think there are any issues.18:50
melodiehere it says otherwise, but it's of last august: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=intel-skl-prelim-support18:51
k1lskylake cpus have freezing issues and need a fix in the kernel for it.18:51
daftykinsyes that's irrelevant18:51

daftykinsk1l: are you referring to the high load prime95 issue discovered?18:51
melodiek1l for a computer which needs to be built in the next week and will use Ubuntu (Kubuntu) only, which powerful CPU would you suggest?18:52
daftykinsyou would need to define the use case for it18:52

daftykins'consumer' ? :)18:53
melodiedaftykins he wants it to be highly snappy for his current needs among which the more greedy is image work with Gimp (I suspect he will also have libreoffice, firefox, and other greedy apps running at same time) all needs to be working well together18:54
daftykinsthose are all low end base examples a several year old system could work fine with18:55

daftykinsrizi: seeing anything other than 0 for Reallocated sectors, current pending sectors, or reallocated sectors tends to be good evidence of an issue - then errors can be written beneath the table of data, too19:06

aethersishello, I have the following issue: I run VNC server on kubuntu on arm linux and it works fine, however when I try to run some applications (especially qt-based), the keyboard input doesn't work. There seem to be two problems: The first is that qt seems to render directly to framebuffer on ARM so that VNC can't capture screen properly from X and the other problem is that the main display is set as :0, however I'm running VNC on display19:19
daftykinsLaPingvino: you're definitely doing something wrong there then :)19:19
aethersis:1 because :0 is locked. Is there some workaround?19:19

EriC^^agopo: they're for tty19:23
llutzagopo: screen doesn't need X19:23

agopoOr so it seemed to me19:24
agopoEither way, it's awesome they exist in tty. Any suggestions which one I should try?19:24
k1lyou can run screen in a terminal on X. but that got nothing to do with windowmanagers19:24

srulimgolisch: not really, i make many changes on VM which i want to loose on reboots, for that i revert snapshot, however when i do want to save the changes what i used to do in Vbox is delete existing snapshot and create new, the difference between vbox and libvirt snapshot is in vbox the changes happen to base image and snap keeps track of what changed, so if u delete snapshot you havnt lost anything20:31
squintyExagone313,  ok not really sure what you are asking then.  if you want to search your ssh connection with gui, then start nautilus after you have ssh logged in and then use nautilus's search function20:32

srulimgolisch: unless i did not use the blockcommit correctly, i used instructions from this page http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Live-disk-backup-with-active-blockcommit ( iactyually make the snaps while VM off20:33
TTTAOk, installed all that stuff, still can't get in20:33
Guest57898EriC^^, I resized it again. root now 30GB20:33
sstoryI have placed a bash script in /etc/profile.d  It is setting JAVA_HOME.  Upon reboot, from a bash prompt JAVA_HOME is set as expected.However using $JAVA_HOME/bin/javaws somejava.jnlp file doesn't run as if it can't see $JAVA_HOME.  Any ideas?20:33
Guest57898EriC^^, now what?20:34
srulimgolisch: i have 2 snapshots, in case something goes wrong after update, i like keeping 1 previous version20:34
TTTAUname -r is responding 3.13.0-77-generic20:34
EriC^^Guest57898: i think that's that20:34
EriC^^Guest57898: is /etc/fstab all right?20:34
ioriaTTTA,    and you don't have the headers ?20:34
Guest57898EriC^^,  sudo e2fsck /dev/sdb2 or sudo e2fsck -f /dev/sdb220:34
EriC^^either one will do20:34
srulimgolisch: but even if i am prepared to give up the 2 snapshots (dont really want to) how would blockcommit help me, i dont understand20:34
ikoniasstory: what do you mean it's not set - you've ust said "it's set"20:35
ioriaTTTA,    dpkg -l | grep linux-headers*20:35
Guest57898EriC^^, in xubuntu I am running LVM20:35

TTTAIoria, that gave me a list20:36
ioriaTTTA,    dpkg -l  grep linux-headers*  | nc termbin.com 999920:37
ubuntuuserhello, i am using https://github.com/denilsonsa/udev-joystick-blacklist which is a set of udev rules to fix certain devices from being detected as joysticks wrongfully, but it isn't working.20:37
Guest57898EriC^^, https://paste.ubuntu.com/14996610/20:37
mgolischsruli: also i think in vb snapshots work the same way, the snapshot file contains all the changes, otherwise online backups would not be possible20:37
EriC^^TTTA: you could try another nvidia driver if you want, or try an older kernel20:37
ikoniaubuntuuser: so wouldn't you feed that back to the person who told you it works ?20:37
EriC^^ioria: he just installed the headers and nvidia and it didnt work20:37
Guest57898EriC^^, I think that looks, OK. Right?20:37
ioriaEriC^^,  yeah, i'd like to see the headers installed20:38
sstoryikonia:, Well I'm saying it is set when I rebooted and went into a bash shell. However when used from a desktop launcher (icon), it I get an error launching the application so I assumed maybe it wasn't set for the GUI somehow.20:38
Exagone313squinty: on a desktop, you may probably have a menu where you can see the apps sorted by themes (dev, system...) but I'd like to see that list through ssh20:38
ubuntuuserikonia: maybe somebody here uses those rules and knows how to fix it. Maybe udev isn't loading the rules20:38
Guest57898EriC^^, now sudo resize2fs -p /dev/sdb2 ?20:38
Ben64Exagone313: didn't i already tell you how20:38
Exagone313but the question was the .desktop location that was replied20:38
TTTANow I'm getting nc: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known20:38
ikoniasstory: it's a shell setting, why would a desktop launcher work ?20:38
EriC^^Guest57898: yeah20:38
Exagone313he needed clarity20:39
ikoniaubuntuuser: maybe it just doesn't work - ask the guy who wrote it20:39
ioriaTTTA,   again, sometimes it fails20:39
Guest57898EriC^^, https://paste.ubuntu.com/14996624/20:39
mcphailubuntuuser: what device do you have?20:39
sstoryikonia: OK. I need an environment variable that is system wide so that a simple desktop icon can be click and launch a software that is run by called javaws and then the .jnlp file.  I do not know how to set this variable. If you can give me a better way I would appreciate it.20:39

Guest57898EriC^^, thx20:40
ubuntuusermcphail: i have the microsoft wired keyboard 600.20:40
srulimgolisch: so what would be a solution for my scenario? on each boot i revert snapshot, what i make an update i create new snapshot, how do i stop myself getting 100's of snaps?20:40
EriC^^Guest57898: cool, no problem20:40
sstoryikonia: basically like this: $JAVA_HOME/bin/javaws http://servername/apps/xyz.jnlp20:41
ikoniasstory: so don't do that20:41
ikoniasstory: just use the path to java, eg: /usr/bin/javaws20:41
ikonia(or whatever it is)20:41
sstoryikonia: pasting that to a bash prompt works20:41
EriC^^TTTA: try dpkg -l | grep linux-headers | nc termbin.com 999920:41
ikoniasstory: of course it will20:41
mcphailubuntuuser: seems to be on the list. Have you added the file correctly and rebooted?20:41
sstoryikonia: I'm a net admin and need to be able to upgrade Java and have this location global to all users and their desktop icon to just work with the new path.20:42
ikoniasstory: right, so the location won't change20:42
ikoniasstory: you use the alternatives to set the path, and you use the alternatives path which is something like /usr/bin/java20:42
TTTASame error, EriC^^20:42
ikoniaI can't remember the real path without checking20:42
ubuntuusermcphail: yes. i ran sudo curl -o /etc/udev/rules.d/51-these-are-not-joysticks.rules \ url to the rules and i checked if the file got saved and it did20:42

Guest57898ok20:43
srulimgolisch: any ideas for me?20:43
sstoryikonia: OK I had used alternatives to set java and javac.  Doing this it didnt' find javaws. It wanted to installed Iced Tea. Unfortunately that won't work with the vendor's software and I had to install Oracle's.  Is there a way to set alternative for javaws?20:43
ikoniasstory: you should be able to create an alternative for anything you want20:44

Exagone313it's ok it was replied20:52
BassemEriC^^, i install it how can i run it now i cant find it in dash20:52
Exagone313you just not noticed20:52
ubuntuusermcphail: thats the reason. the controller shows up on steam. what's stranger is that steam sees 4 controllers titled xintupt controller20:52
TTTAStill digging for an Ethernet cable20:53
TTTAMight have to make one...20:53
mcphailubuntuuser: I'd type "sleep 5 && udevadm monitor -p", unplug your keyboard, wait until the udev monitor program starts, plug your keyboard back in and then send the output to the author20:54
Exagone313squinty: if you need to know: I use X apps through SSH. And via pcmanfs I can go to /usr/share/applications and open the desktop files directly open the proper apps. I can open them as a file to know which category they are in. A better solution would be a menu integrated in a window that would do the same as desktop menus.20:54

Guest57898mgolisch, remote forwarding would be what I need, right?21:40

Guest57898like that?21:46

Guest57898So bind apache to port 5000 for example?21:48
mgolischno just use another port in the forwarding thing21:48
ubuntu919Basically, I'm trying to output stdout into a wav file. I can currently play sounds using "./<progname>|aplay" and that pipes the output just fine into aplay. I'm wondering how to record it into a wav file, as piping it into arecord doesn't produce an audible wav file.21:48
mgolischlike -L 8080:localhost:8021:48
EriC^^ubuntu919: never tried it but maybe <progname>|aplay && arecord something21:49
Guest57898the 8080 is the port at home or on my local pc?21:49
EriC^^ubuntu919: i mean, <progname>|aplay & arecord something21:49
mgolischso what this does is: the ssh client creates a listen socket on 8080 and forwards all stuff on that through the tunnel to localhost:80 on the ssh server21:50
mgolischGuest57898: that would be the localport on the ssh client21:50
ubuntu919EriC^^:  The problem is that I'm spewing bytes into standard output atm, and when it's piped into aplay, it's interpretted as sound. For some reason, arecord doesn't work the same way.21:50

C_minuswhy do i get cuda?22:23
ikoniaC_minus: read the Xorg log and the .Xsession logs of the user you're tring to login22:23

C_minusikonia i had a look in /var/logs/Xorg.0.log but I don't really know what I'm looking for22:25
ikoniaC_minus: errors22:25
qualiaqqAlright I see. I was just sort of looking for something that is low barrier to entry to contribute to open source.22:25
ikoniaand look at the .xsession logs22:25
C_minusikonia I see "(EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)22:27
ikoniaC_minus: there you go, thats pretty serious22:28
mcphailqualiaqq: package maintenance is a major undertaking. Try starting with a PPA, and see how you get on22:28
C_minusI have no idea what might have caused this.22:28
ikoniaalthough you do get a login window X session right ?22:28
ikoniaC_minus: installing 3rd party drivers off the net is a good start of how to break it22:28
Bashing-omqualiaqq: Entry level point : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2260620&p=13206678#post13206678 <- Ubuntu Find-A-Task .22:29
C_minusikonia if you mean the normal login screen, then yes. it goes black and loops back to ask for my password every time.22:29
ikoniaC_minus: so it's obviously loading "some" Xorg driver/module22:29
C_minusI kinda had to get the NVIDIA drivers to make enable to GPU acceleration stuff...22:29
ikoniaor you wouldn't get a login prompt22:29
qualiaqqBashing-om, thanks22:29
Guest58432ciao22:30
ikoniaC_minus: I doubt that, but thats not my problem22:30
qualiaqqmcphail, oic I didn't realize that. I guess I was underestimating what went into it.22:30
Bashing-omqualiaqq: Welcome, we can use all the help we can get .22:30
hihelloh22:30
C_minuswell when i'm not patching up my falling-apart computer, i train neural networks. you're saying i have to choose between having CUDA and a desktop environment?22:31
ikoniaC_minus: not saying that at all22:31
mcphailqualiaqq: Bashing-om's link is a good one. Follow that and dive in :)22:32
torkil mio nick?22:33
C_minusThis used to happen whenever I used Win7 and rebooted back to Ubuntu. But I used to be able to solve it by using an older kernel version. Now even that has the same problem.22:33
ikoniaC_minus: a.) login to the terminal - check the xsession logs22:33
ikoniab.) use the fallback/failsafe mode - test you can login to the X session there22:33
ikoniathen move forward22:33
ikoniayou need to learn how to manage your machine/desktop though22:34
ikoniait's all very well saying "I train neural networks" but if you can't manage the box you use, it's a pointless function22:34
Khaotichow do i change the login screen bg ion 15.1022:35
torkNo!!!22:36
C_minusikonia good advice. it begins with "Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0".22:37
C_minusI'm curious as to why this might manifest itself only after using Win722:40
MrXXIVAnyone use the terminal?22:40
ikoniaC_minus: you have no idea what other updates have happened in the background22:40
ikoniaC_minus: follow the debugging steps I suggested22:41
Bashing-omMrXXIV: Most of us do use the terminal, what is the real question ?22:43
mekhamiwhat can i do to output my current volume level to the command line?22:43
ikoniamekhami: use the gui - thats what it's there for22:43
mekhamiikonia.......22:43
mekhami.........22:43
ikoniawhat ?22:44
mekhamiif that were what i asked for, man that'd be a great answer22:44
ikoniamekhami: what are you playing sound through ?22:44
Seveasmekhami: amixer.22:44
Seveasor alsamixer if you want a curses interface.22:44
mekhamiSeveas: i really just want a text output of the current volume level22:44
mekhamii suppose i can do some regex on amixer get Master22:44
Seveasmekhami: there is no such thing as 'the current volume level'.22:45
mekhami....22:45
mekhamiis everyone retarded today22:45
Seveasno, but you seem to very insulting. So go away please or behave.22:45
mekhamidid i miss a memo22:45
mekhamii must have missed the 'be really stupid today' memo22:45
Seveasno, I think you received that just fine :)22:46
DaMastahHi :) Is there a way to aggregate two samba mounts into one with aufs ? I have a setup that "kinda works" except I get a "device is busy" error when I try to create a file the aufs mount...22:49
hihelloGUYS22:49
hihelloGUYS IS THERE A WAY TO SEE ALL OF YOUR CMDS22:49
ikoniaDaMastah: I can't see how that would work with samba22:49
ikoniahihello: don't type in caps22:49
hihelloEVEN THOUGH YOU ARE WORKING IN GUI UN UBUNTU22:49
ikoniahihello: "history" or "fc -l"22:49
hihellook22:49
hihellono22:50
hihellobut lets say i am workingin gui22:50
hihellobut i want to see cmds of it22:50
hihellois this possible22:50
ikoniathere are no commands22:50
ikoniait's a gui22:50
Revian1^22:50
hihelloyou didnt understand22:50
DaMastahikonia: that's too bad :( It works with mhddfs though but it's kinda slow because it's a fuse fs22:50
Revian1I was about to say that ikonia22:50
C_minusI never (knowingly) installed Nvidia Optimus tool for switching graphics cards. Could that be a problem?22:50
hihelloif you work in gui22:50
=== Luke_ is now known as Luke
hihelloits still cmds22:50
ikoniaC_minus: yes,22:50
ikoniahihello: no, it's not22:50
ikoniahihello: a button press on a gui does not = a command22:51
hihellowhat is it then22:51
hihelloplease explanin22:51
ikoniaor functions22:51
ikoniaa call to libraries22:51
hihellook thank you22:52
C_minusikonia actually dpkg -l grep nvidia shows 2 resulsts: the second is nvidia-prime - which handles switching graphics cards.22:53
MonkeyDusthihello  you can download the source of a program, without installing, then read it... you will see a button click is not the same as    [command] [enter]22:53
seanrdevI just did an update on a lot of packages. How can I undo all update just installed? Does apt have a rollback option or something?22:53
ikoniaC_minus: did you do what I told you to do yet ?22:53
xanguaseanrdev: usually no, and why you wanna do that?22:54
C_minusikonia you said read the xsession and Xorg.0.log. Since I've never seen these outputs before I'm googling them as I go22:54
seanrdevxangua: it took days to get wireless working with backports. now after the update its out again!!!22:55
ikoniaC_minus: I also told you to login via the tty, and login to the X11 session to test the failsafe session22:56
xanguaseanrdev: please elaborate, what Ubuntu release, what wireless drivers, how did you make it with the first time?22:56
seanrdevUbuntu 15.10 (Because of the 4.2 kernel). ath10k drivers. Had to follow the bug report at bugs.launchpad.net bug number 1520343. Post #2223:01
Revian1Hey, the global menu can be set to always on. I don't know who did that, but thank you so much23:01
C_minusikonia by that do you mean the ctrl-alt-f1 combination? how do i login to the x11 session to test the failsafe session?23:02
jegarciagod i hate webex23:03
MannyLNJQuestion: I verified my router is fowarding port 22 to my ubuntu system. I verified my ISP is not blocking port 22. I also verified there is no firewall running on the ubuntu system and that I am trying to connect to the right IP but I am still unable to SSH from the outside. What else can be the issue>?23:03
Revian1C_minus, I believe that is what he meant. ctrl+alt+f1 will take you to tty1 and allow you to log in via test mode.23:04
hihelloguys23:04
C_minusi typed in my login and password sure23:04
hihellodoes it take a lot of programming to be a good hacker23:04
C_minusRevian1 what is the failsafe aspect?23:04
ikoniaC_minus: testing it via the console, and changing the xorg.conf to remove the nvidia module and use the vesa module will run as a failsafe X11 session23:05
ikoniahihello: that is nothing to do with this channel23:05
Jordan_UMannyLNJ: systemctl status ssh23:05
Revian1C_minus, I'm not sure, I am nowhere near as skilled as ikonia .. he's been doing this for quite a while23:05
hihelloikonia what is your job ? here23:05
hihellomoderator ?23:05
ikoniaI don't have a job here,23:05
hihellojust wondering23:05
ikoniaahh sorry yes23:05
hihelloah ok23:06
C_minuswhat exactly am i meant to be testing? do i run "startx"?23:06
ikoniaC_minus: no, just testing it logged in on the console and authed ok etc etc, thats all23:07
Revian1ikonia, You may have lost C_minus at 'changing the xorg.conf'23:07
C_minusyeah i logged in. this is how i've been reading those log files23:07
ikoniaC_minus: thats fine, just checking the basics23:08
Jordan_UMannyLNJ: Can you successfully ssh in from another host on your LAN? How are you testing a connection from "the outside world"?23:08
C_minusit says /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d No such file or directory23:10
ikoniaC_minus: what does ?23:10
seanrdevxangua: Yeah I just recopied the files and it works again. I don't know what happened during the update but that fixed it.23:10
C_minusikonia - the shell, i guess?23:11
ikoniaC_minus: what are you doing to get that error23:11
C_minussame for without the .d23:11
ikoniaC_minus: what are you doing to get that error23:11
C_minuserm nano ./xorg.conf23:12
C_minusfrom that directory23:12
ikoniaC_minus: /etc/X11/xorg.conf23:12
C_minusAh, there are lots of files beginning xorg.conf in that directory, followed by numbers (dates?)23:13
C_minusand one with failsafe at the end23:13
ikoniait's not a directory23:13
ikoniait's a file23:13
C_minusin /etc/X1123:13
ikoniais there a file called /etc/X11/xorg.conf23:14
C_minusno, just the several versions with numbers after23:14
ikoniaC_minus: can you pastebin ls -la /etc/X11 please23:14
C_minusikonia it's kinda hard, i'm on a different laptop to talk to you23:15
ikoniaC_minus: thats fine23:15
C_minusi can type it out23:15
ikoniano no, I understand23:15
ikoniaso if you do "ls -la /etc/X11/xorg.conf" what do you get ?23:15
C_minusls: cannot access /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such fie or directory23:16
ikoniaperfect, ok23:16
ikoniaC_minus: so what are the other files in /etc/X11 ?23:16
C_minusapp-defaults, cursors, default-display-manager, fonts, rgb.txt, xint, xkb, xorg.conf.XXXXXXXX (several of these), xorg.conf.failsafe, Xreset, Xreset.d, Xresources, Xsession, Xsession.d, Xsession.options, xsm, Xwrapper.config23:18
ikoniaC_minus: interesting, normally if you're using nvidia it makes an xorg.conf to force the loading of the nvidia module,23:18
ikoniaC_minus: what version of ubuntu is this ?23:18
C_minus14.0423:18
ikoniaok, so it will still honour the xorg.conf23:19
ikoniaC_minus: look at the timestamps on the xorg.conf.whatever23:19
ikoniafind the last one, and open it23:19
C_minusThe most recent one is today23:19
ikoniaC_minus: ok, so that would explain why it's broke toda23:19
ikoniatoday23:19
ikoniaC_minus: lets try a basic test for "luck"23:19
ikoniaC_minus: copy that file to be called xorg.conf (not move - copy)23:20
C_minusOK, its some blocks of stuff with a few indents...23:20
C_minuswhich file, the latest one?23:20
ikoniayes23:20
C_minusok hold on a sec23:20
C_minusikonia ok i copied it to a new file called xorg.conf23:21
Neohey guys, how can I get my macbook touchpad right click working? I'm on ubuntu wily on a macbook 8,123:22
ikoniaC_minus: reboot and see what happens23:22
ikoniaC_minus: bit of a luck shot before debugging in more detail23:22
C_minushehe thanks, I appreciate this ikonia23:23
C_minusikonia WOAH! beautiful lovely gorgeous desktop, panel and launcher appear!23:24
C_minusikonia I owe you a million quid.23:24
ikoniaC_minus: look of the draw,23:24
ikoniaC_minus: something is changing/backing up your xorg.conf - find it23:24
ikoniaC_minus: or keep a copy of that file for if it happens again23:25
C_minusikonia, if you had the patience, I'd love to hear what your rationale behind suggesting this solution was. because it largely seems like witchcraft to me. (you mean go to /etc/X11 and save the xorg.conf i just made, and be able to back it up from a usb stick or whatever?)23:26
ikoniaC_minus: just keep a copy in your home dir eg: xorg.conf.safe23:26
ikoniaC_minus: I just know how xorg works to a level that made it a common sense thing to do, just experience, nothing else23:27
C_minusikonia also does it strike you as strange that i encounter these kinds of issues after shutting down a win7 session and trying to use ubuntu again? This guy mentions it, but it's a bit of a dead end http://stackoverflow.com/a/2904169323:28
kneeWhere is the ENV_SUPATH located in ubuntu23:28
ikoniaC_minus: I suspect what's happened is you've rebooted say 10 times no probles, in the 10'th time an update happened, you rebooted into windows, no problem, you booted back into ubuntu and the pending update happened and broke this23:29
ikoniaC_minus: I'm making a guess without any information23:29
C_minusikonia thanks again, you're a very helpful and patient fellow23:31
C_minusi'm a bigtime newcomer to computing and whatnot, so thanks23:31
C_minussee ya later ubuntuphiles23:32
kneeHow can you config your login policy so that users can only login in at a certin time23:33
nolsenwhat is amd64-microcode used for and do I need it?23:34
Bashing-omnolsen: does ' apt-cache show amd64-microcode ' answer that question(s) .23:37
nolsenSorta, though https://askubuntu.com/questions/297628/should-i-install-amd64-microcode says it's a 32bit program, but I can't see if that's true.23:38

Bashing-omnolsen: "think" they are talking that Left 4 Dead 2 is a 32 bit program .23:41
homa_hi my friends23:53
naccnolsen: Bashing-om's suggestion is pretty complete. It's for AMD processor microcode23:54
naccnolsen: the package itself doesn't provide any "programs" really, unless you mean the bin files that are microcode themselves23:55
