Joelwhere does ubuntu store apt-get cache? like the results of available packages?00:32
k1l_Joel: /var/lib/apt/ iirc00:33
LoshkiJoel: the package cache is in /var/cache/apt/archives. Is that what you want to know?00:33
Joelk1l_, thanks00:35
daftykinsLoshki: no that's where the actual packages get downloaded to00:37
daftykinswhich is not what was asked00:37
geniiJoel: In /var/lib/apt/lists00:37
* genii slides daftykins a coffee00:37
Dualityhow is it that packages dissappear ? is it because you use another kernel does that even matter? because yester day i ran "cadence" in a terminal and it was found and installed, and today it says it can't find it any where.00:37
daftykinsgenii: ty!00:38
LoshkiDuality: Packages aren't supposed to disappear on a normal installation. look in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin. It may be installed under some weird name.00:39
DualityLoshki: how can it change name :) besides whereis doesn't show it. and it isn't under /usr/bin or /usr//local/bin00:40
Dualitymaybe i uninstalled it by acident with apt is such a thing possible ?00:40
OerHeksi'd like to have a long drumsolo ogg on the login, how can i do that?00:41
geniiDuality: The more probable reason is that you installed something else since then which conflicted with cadence, and it was removed to prevent conflicts with that new package00:41
daftykinsOerHeks: i hope you're not going to be a nuisance at the library!00:41
Dualityyea there was this conflict with a package yesterday00:42
LoshkiDuality: it's name won't change, but sometimes the name is not what you expected. Check the history of your installs in /var/log/dpkg.log00:42
Ben64not finding anything called cadence in ubuntu00:42
LoshkiOerHeks: it's the first thing I switch off00:43
Ben64maybe it was something you compiled or something like that. maybe in your home directory? ~/cadence00:43
OerHeksall i find is just rename to  /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/desktop-login.ogg00:44
DualityLoshki: the log shows me that it was removed :(00:45
Ben64Duality: whats the name of the package00:50
DualityBen64: cadence00:51
Ben64pastebin the output of "apt-cache show cadence"00:51
Dualityhttp://pastebin.com/p8sm0PYZ00:52
Ben64so reinstall it, and keep in mind 3rd party repositories and their software aren't supported here00:54
DualityBen64: i see but apt-get says there is no install candidate00:55
Ben64well ... i don't know. thats why 3rd party stuff isn't supported here00:56
DualityBen64: ok :) but it seems that allot of my audio is broken :) I get it fixed, but I just don't understand why this happend :S00:59
Ben64Duality: it could be because you're installing unsupported software01:04
DualityBen64: could be :)01:06
greywalksHello!  I am having a bit of trouble with a new install, boot repair doesn't seem to work.01:09

greywalksSo can I just input a bootable flash drive and redo the install @daftykins ?01:12
daftykinsi'm sure it can be fixed but since it's a clean install, there's no point.01:12

C_minusSomeone recommend I use the .run installer for CUDA toolkit. This guy suggests that this is a bad idea, but doesn't really explain why. http://askubuntu.com/a/626559 What qualifies as "not properly installed"?01:26
=== greycloud is now known as blackcloud
=== blackcloud is now known as greycloud
SchrodingersScatC_minus: well, he does mention this (Note, I can't confirm or deny this) "and will need to be re-installed every time you update kernel."01:30
Ben64C_minus: and note that that page has nothing to do with cuda01:30
SchrodingersScatC_minus: actually reading that it makes sense, cause apt will pull in a kernel without it and then you'd have to add it back in, alse ^01:30
C_minusWhen you do the .run installation, it asks you to install a driver. When I chose not to install the driver it failed.01:31
SchrodingersScatC_minus: if you chose not to, isn't failing succeeding?01:32
Ben64C_minus: what are you actually trying to accomplish01:32
DudeBroHey guys, whenever i install an application on ubuntu it doesnt show up in the application list unless i restart unity.01:35
DudeBroAny fix for this?01:35
C_minusWell I had some issues recently with an login loop. in /etc/X11 there are loads of files xorg.conf.<date>, but no xorg.conf. ikonia instructed me to take the most recent and copy it to xorg.conf, and that enabled me to log in again. i'm trying to work out why this is.01:35
daftykinsversion?01:35
=== guido_ is now known as cabezza
daftykinsin 2016 you shouldn't really need a xorg.conf01:36
C_minusi don't know anything about that. i just want to avoid this login loop pain happening again.01:37
daftykinspastebin the file then01:37
daftykinsmy first guess is hybrid graphics to blame01:37
Ben64C_minus: you seem to be all over the place. you were talking about running cuda, then you pasted a link talking about nvidia graphics drivers, now xorg.conf and problems logging in?01:38
daftykinsoh great, those details would've been helpful01:41
daftykinsC_minus: i think you just broke your own setup if the above is accurate01:41
C_minusBen64. I was talking about the nvidia driver that got installed whilst installing the CUDA toolkit.01:41
C_minusWhen the login loop was happening I saw in the xsession error log "(EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)."01:42
daftykinsC_minus: you're giving us tiny little useless pieces of information, we need a full picture - so paste the working xorg.conf01:43
C_minussorry here you go http://paste.ubuntu.com/15005954/01:44

C_minusUh oh. Looks like I've made a mistake by installing the driver provided with the .run file. In "Additional Drivers" I only have the option to "continue using a manually installed driver." I guess I'll have to uninstall them?01:55
C_minushow do kernel updates affect the nvidia driver? this source suggests automatically re-installing driver after kernel updates http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/02/how-to-install-nvidia-drivers-manually-in-ubuntu01:59
KyranHey, who could help me out with setting up multiple distros?02:01
cfhowlettKyran, sanest option for multi = virtualbox02:01
SeminarianHey guys, does anyone know where "Always on top" is saved when u press alt + space? There's a window where I can't uncheck this option so I'd like to erase the memory of this setting02:02
Bashing-omC_minus: It's dynamic kernel module support; This will allow DKMS to automatically build a new module (driver) .02:03
KyranEh, I don't want to use VirtualBox02:04
artoisSeminarian: if it's not in gconf/dconf, it's probably in ~/.cache02:04
artoisSeminarian: you can't alt+space and select with arrow keys?02:04
Seminarianartois: No I can't it open the context menu of another window, not that window02:05
cfhowlettKyran, if all your distro's are *buntu, there is an easier option ... install a single ubuntu, then install the other destkop environments.  if you just MUST have the full experience, install the other distro-desktop.  logout, choose a session, login02:05
artoisSeminarian: ...wha?02:05
Seminarianartois: It's a playonlinux window (wine)02:05
Seminarianartois: I regret selecting the option always on top02:06
artoisSeminarian: yeah... but what were you saying about the context menu, I couldn't parse that02:06
Seminarianartois: If I press alt + tab it just opens the alt + tab as if I did it on another window02:06
Seminarianartois: if no other window is open it goes to my top-bar in unity02:07
artoisand you can't click on it with the mouse cursor, either?02:07
Seminarianartois: nop02:07
SeminarianCan I delete the contents of all that's in ~/.cache ?02:08
artoisSeminarian: did you make it always on top just this particular session, or in an earlier session?02:08
artoisSeminarian: yes, or just mv it temporarily02:08
Seminarianartois: Earlier session.. I tried to reboot02:08
artoisah02:08
artoismight want to try that when logged out of X02:09
KyranIndeed I must have the full experience, but the other distos wont all be under Ubuntu. I'm looking up how I can make this happen and I may just partition the drive, but it'd be nice to share files between all OS'02:09
Seminarianartois: So move the ~/.cache folder after I killed X from another virtual terminal ?02:09
waters33637kyran: proxmox is a option i use02:10
artoisSeminarian: sure, worth a try02:10
Seminarianartois: Cool thanks will try that soon when downloads are finished02:10

daftykinsso type "sudo dpkg -r" then after that paste each individual linux-image-extra-... name and then do the linux-image-... and also the headers ones from above02:34

unicornjediso.......?05:08
dugzi dislike kodi05:08
unicornjediwhy is that?05:09
davido_I don't think the answer is kodi-specific, so by excluding those who don't use kodi you exclude those who do know about xrandr just because they don't use kodi.05:09

davido_"kodi rotate screen" was the search term that revealed that thread as the first hit. For more specifics there's always the #kodi channel on freenode. This is Ubuntu. Aside from the common linux-heritage I don't know that they're all that closely related.05:12

zebulanI am new to linux and am currently going through the Introduction to Linux course on edX. My question is about this command: 'touch -t 03201600 myfile'. What would be a reason to modify a timestamp on a file? Also, what would happen if I ran that command on every file? I am unsure the significance of the timestamp in linux. I hope this is the right room for the question(s)...06:46
AdomasRaizebulan:  The only reasons I can think of to modify access timestamps is to cover your tracks or to make it look like you didn't access a file you weren't supposed to.  I think it's just in the edX course because you can do it.06:47

valjan__Windows is closed, it doesn't allow for anything resembling easy modification to tasks you require... riddle me this, if you want to make your windows a much darker color in windows 10 and set specific coloration for text and other fields can you just edit themes?06:57
yoyook so just because i want a different color on my screen i should use ubuntu?06:57

AdomasRaiyoyo: nah you just have to push buttons and see what happens07:00
PowerKiller2yoyo: for SysAdmins. too07:00
valjan__So, the things that make Ubuntu nice for more end users is the -option- to be able to get into some of the deeper stuff should you desire but also remaining fairly simple in a lot of the interactions with the environment07:00
AdomasRaiyoyo: what vlajan__ is trying to say is that you can plop it in, play with the building blocks like legos from the base all the way to the top and change the colors, add a window or a porch, and by the end you have your own castle out of a pile of legos07:02
valjan__You can play around, should you so wish, but out of the box Ubuntu offers essentially what windows does with many many more features. While file installation can be seen as a bit more complex it's also vastly more secure than running everything out of .exe files and many of the package managers make installing everything but fringe programs almost as easy as it is in windows or Mac.07:02

Delphin2lotuspsychje: I want to use 14 though, I changed my graphics driver using -> Settings -> Software & Updates -> Additional Drivers (tab), but seeing I cant log in any more can I change it with a config setting or at least reset it? (maybe reinstall the driver using apt-get ?)11:06

davesidiousHey folks - is there a relatively easy way to have certain apps load in certain workspaces upon login?  I'm a developer, and so I'd like to have a workspace for each project which includes my editor open at the application, a terminal, and a web browser.  I could craft a script to open all of these in certain workspaces, but I'd like to know if there is a prebuilt solution?12:09
hateballdavesidious: are you using Unity as your DE?12:10
davesidiousyup - sorry - I should have mentioned.12:10
hateballdavesidious: Well it's sort of implied, this being ubuntu, but you never know :)12:10
hateballdavesidious: In which case I do not know, as I use KDE Plasma, where you can achieve this in many ways (easy)12:11
Gozteycto12:11
davesidioushateball - indeed ;)12:11
davesidioushateball, thanks for your input - I really am grateful, even if it wasn't exactly helpful in my precise situation ;)12:11
hateballdavesidious: Back when I used gnome there was devilspie, I dont know if you could use that. It requires writing the rules for it tho12:12
davesidioushateball - this looks very interesting... I will take a look immediately.  Awesome!12:13
hateballdavesidious: Good luck :)12:14

=== Guest8408 is now known as rickcapellano
davesidiousThat doesn't seem to do exactly what I want to do.  It's good for getting things opening in the right place, but not to actually open them.  Plus as I'll be having the same apps open across workspaces, it's not a particularly easy approach to use (as the same apps will be in all workspaces)12:20
davesidioushmm.12:20
ubuntu110hello you kind people!12:21
smackusrevivalhello12:22
ubuntu110Have you ever met the following error? On Ubuntu 14 i have installed xrdp and xfce4 as well. After I used XRDP remotely then tried to log in locally on another user, the unity desktop does not seem to work at all, only wallpaper and mouse cursor is shown.12:23
smackusrevivalubuntu110: i no longer use xrdp. but i used to always have trouble with it. i ditched it in favor of tv instead.12:29
smackusrevivaltv = teamviewer12:29
smackusrevivalthese days, i only use ssh and nothing else though.12:30
davesidiousSo I'm back to square one.  Maybe someone else has an idea about creating workspaces which are automatically populated with specific apps for each workspace?12:30
smackusrevivalsorry could not help you more ubuntu11012:30
smackusrevivaldavesidious: why exactly, if i may ask is this important to you?12:34
davesidiousBecause I would like to have a workspace for each project I am working on.  During the day I spend time switching from working on one project to another, and this seems like a good way to do it.  Memory and CPU are not a problem.12:34
smackusrevivalyou want it to auto perform the placement in each workspace you mean?12:35
davesidioussmackusrevival - I'd like to log in and have my workspaces populated with the correct apps for each workspace12:36
smackusrevivaldavesidious: ok. i understand. not sure what application would do that. probably controlled by the desktop environment.12:38
davesidioussmackusrevival - I'd figure something like that, but I'm unsure of the details.  This seems like a rather strange thing to not have, but I appreciate I do not represent the entirety of Ubuntudom.12:39
smackusrevivalperfectly reasonable request i guess.12:44

VoidWhisperersomeone recommended making a windows VM and using seamless mode14:50
VoidWhispererbut given that i'm using a tablet with limited battery, that's a questionable idea14:50
VoidWhispererthat and the fact that this device only has 4GB of RAM, so using half of it for a VM seems like it wouldn't work14:50
hateballVoidWhisperer: so you only need a program that accepts stylus input or what?14:50

slavanaphello. Can someone explain to me why my eth0 doesn't have ipv4 address after latest update? How can I investigate the issue?15:22
k-josephhi guys, any one hear has experienced https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35318952/dh-builddeb-pkgbinarymangler-dpkg-deb-build-debian-tmp-returned-exit-code15:22
Zulu_TooCfhowlett, what is your experience in this though. I would like some input before making any decisions. Thanks. :)15:22
cfhowlettsadly , I have none, thus my suggestion to ask "experts"15:23
jskapici idk they told me to join here , can you use teamviwer to show u ? will be better15:23
Zulu_TooGood honest answer. Thanks anyways. :)15:23
Picijska: Are you using Ubuntu?15:23
slavanapI tried stop/start networking service but it stop operation fails. "stop: Job failed while stopping" "start: Job is already running: networking"15:23
jskapici nope15:23
jskapici i use linux15:23
Picijska: Then you shouldn't be here. That is what this channel is for. Use ##linux or a channel for whatever tool you're using.15:24
jskapici okay15:24
Zulu_TooI have the lates i386 Ubuntu install with the minimal install. It works great at the moment. I am installing one component at t time.15:24
slavanapifconfig reports ipv6 address for eth0, but no ipv4. What could it be? Using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.15:25
n0x0nHi all. Do any of you know how mlocate compares to tracker? I'm unable to dig up a comparison on the internet...15:27
Salo187ok, so i've been out of ubuntu since 8.04 and planning to go back. I've noticed it's on 14.04 but a few weeks to another LTS. Anyway 15.10 is available. Ideally i would wait for the new LTS, but having to choose now, which is better (minding that i will want to update to the LTS)?15:28
lotuspsychjeSalo187: 14.04.3 would be a good choice15:29
lotuspsychjeSalo187: so you can smoothly upgrade to 16.04 in april15:29
Salo187any key features i'll miss from 15.xxx or is it all internal stuff?15:30
MonkeyDustlotuspsychje  more precisely: as of 16.04.1, you can upgrade directly 14.04 > 16.0415:30
MonkeyDustSalo187  ^^^15:30
Salo187right15:30
lotuspsychjeSalo187: depends on the system really, most machines perform nicely on ubuntu15:30
Salo187it's an i7-4700MQ 2.40GHz,  8GB RAM and a NVIDIA GTX 760M15:32
lotuspsychjeSalo187: well you could start with 14.04.3 and see how it performs15:33
Salo187is the GPU switching issue smooth now?15:33
lotuspsychjeSalo187: if its optimus, you need nvidia-prime package15:34
Salo187it is15:34
lotuspsychje!info nvidia-prime | Salo187 install after15:34
ubottuSalo187 install after: nvidia-prime (source: nvidia-prime): Tools to enable NVIDIA's Prime. In component main, is optional. Version 0.8.1 (wily), package size 10 kB, installed size 114 kB (Only available for i386; amd64)15:34
Salo187should that be manually installed?15:34

poorUserHI people! If i fully install ubuntu on a pendrive (boot loader too), when i move to another pc, will i have any drivers' issue?15:35
guestSalo187: The differences between Ubuntu releases these days aren't as large as they were back in 200815:35
Salo187right!15:35
DirtyCajunpoorUser: you shouldnt15:35
guestSalo187: So it's less of an issue to stay current. Just go from LTS to LTS :)15:36
tewardpoorUser: you *might*15:36
tewardpoorUser: if a graphics card driver is missing, or proprietary hardware drivers (for some network cards or such) are missing15:36
tewardpoorUser: ideally, you aren't going to be using a pendrive for Ubuntu - it's extraordinarily slow over USB15:36
Salo187thx for tips guys! will do it now15:36
lotuspsychjeSalo187: good luck mate! and come back if you need anything15:37
poorUsereven with usb 3.0? tmp to ram?15:38
lotuspsychjepoorUser: an Os on usb will be bottleneck15:38
tewardpoorUser: an OS on any USB stick, USB 3.0 or otherwise, will always be a bottleneck15:38
tewardpoorUser: it does NOT reach the same speeds as direct-to-harddrive installs will ever get in terms of disk i/o and other things15:38
tewardpoorUser: so it will always bottle-neck there, with regards to speed, and will always be slow15:39
lotuspsychjepoorUser: the idea of a movable ubuntu for the road isnt bad, but you can use minipc's or barebones for that15:40
poorUseri run numerical stuff, few data exchanged with the HD. and would be nice to have, while moving from pc's, my own system on a stick15:41

Jordan_Umijk: Any changes to the filesystem are stored in the casper-rw filesystem. Note however that files read by the bootloader, like the kernel and initramfs, are read before the overlay is active and thus upgrading your kernel will appear to work but won't actually have an effect.19:04

MonkeyDusti use apt, saves me the tgrouble of having to use the source ... other viewpoint19:48
jonascjk1l: yes, "sudo apt update" (which gave similar output to apt-get update, listing repos it is going through), and then "sudo apt full-upgrade" which gave the output I pasted here http://paste.linux.chat/view/d9e7752c19:48

Girly_Compdoc I have a server Ubuntu i386 latest version. I did an apt-get install Postfix and not able to work with it. I suppose I need to do more homework.21:28
Ben64Girly_: email servers are far from trivial to set up, maintain, and secure. i'd strongly recommend against doing it yourself21:29
compdocGirly_, why Ubuntu i386? you must have an old 32bit cpu21:29
Girly_It is 32 bit. I don't think that is a main issue though.21:30
k1lGirly_: running a mailserver is not " i click here and everything is fine" task. you need to do a lot more to get it running properly. that is why most people dont even start with setting that up. or they end up running a spam machine21:30
Girly_Well K11 a spam machine is not what I prefer. Good point and well taken thanks. :)21:30
Ben64I used to run my own, but it because too much of a hassle. Now I use google apps, much easier, works everywhere on everything, integration is seamless with my smartphone, etc21:30
compdocGirly_, you might have a look at SME Server, which is what I use for an email server. you could run it in a virtual machine, if you had a 64bit cpu21:31
Girly_Compdoc I do use Virtual Box VBOX with LXDE Debian on it.21:32

compdocGirly_, your ISP might block port 25 for incoming mail21:34
compdocmine does21:34
Ben64if they don't, it might be against TOS21:35
jonascjGirly_: I get what you are saying, but it takes a great deal to make it as secure as Gmail is (ignoring Google back doors, goverment backdoors etc.). Screw up a tiny little things and you ahve things going in clear text to the wrong places21:35
Ben64protip - email is going to go in clear text anyway21:36
Girly_Compdoc my ISP does block it but you can designate other ports. I strictly ordered my ISP not to throttle my bandwidth and block ports. I can do an NMAP port scan for that.21:36
Ben64Girly_: you actually can't use other ports if you want it to work21:36
jonascjk1l: I do not see this problem in a clean ubuntu 14.04 without the add-architecure command. So I have screwed something up in this install...21:37

Jordan_USalo187: I don't recommend using GUI frontends for GRUB, I don't trust any that I've tried (though I haven't tried any in years). If you haven't actually run it then it shouldn't affect anything.23:10
easyOnMehow can I check my ubuntu version using the console23:11

easyOnMebut right now what I can I do to change to 14.04 lts23:14
Jordan_Uauvajs: sudo touch /forcefsck23:14
easyOnMeI was a noob back then when I started all these23:14
k1leasyOnMe: actually: your system is a security issue since 23.07.201523:14
Salo187http://paste.ubuntu.com/15011952/23:15
Jordan_Uauvajs: That should force an fsck to be performed at next boot, which will hopefully fix the filesystem errors. I hope that you also have backups of any important files on this filesystem though.23:15
Salo187sorry about that23:15
k1leasyOnMe: you cant downgrade to 14.10. you need to upgrade to 15.04 (which is dead since one week, too) and then update to 15.10. and then in 6 months update to 16.0423:15
Salo187miss-pasted23:16
Salo187Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15011952/23:16

easyOnMethat is tbh23:16
easyOnMewhatis tbh23:16
k1leasyOnMe: to be honest23:16
easyOnMek1l: ok got it23:17
Jordan_USalo187: Great. Now reboot and you should get the Starfield theme at boot. There are also other themes available, but they're not packaged yet. To use other themes just copy the theme directory to /boot/grub/themes/ and change the line in /etc/default/grub to point to the correct theme's theme.txt .23:17
auvajsJordan_U: I did as you told, and rebooted, but no change23:17
easyOnMek1l: are there no other approach man23:17
Salo187Jordan_thx! brb23:17
Jordan_Uauvajs: Does "ls /forcefsck" show that the file exists? (Be careful to avoid typos.23:18
easyOnMeso I have to use 14.04 lts then and have a clean droplet23:18
k1leasyOnMe: update to 15.04, then to 15.10 (and in near future to 16.04. 16.04 got 5 years support since its LTS)23:18
auvajsJordan_U: No such file or directory23:18
Jordan_Uauvajs: Did you get an error message when you ran "sudo touch /forcefsck" before?23:19
auvajsJordan_U: no23:19
Jordan_Uauvajs: Are you able to access the grub menu when the VPS boots?23:20
auvajsJordan_U: I'm not sure23:20
auvajsJordan_U: I'll probably get disconnected from the web console while rebooting23:20
Jordan_Uauvajs: Well, you need to run fsck, and I don't know if running fsck is safe while the FS is mounted, even if it is mounted ro. Do you have backups of all important data?23:21
auvajsJordan_U: no23:22
Salo187Jordan_U:  ok it worked. but needs to configure the resolution and reduce the boot options (3 different windows options)23:22
Jordan_Uauvajs: That's not good. I would not be surprised if you have already lost or corrupted some files.23:23
auvajsJordan_U: hm.. but now it's too late23:24
Jordan_Uauvajs: Any writes you make to the filesystem could possibly damage it more. Your safest bet is to call your VPS and ask them to help you recover your files.23:27
auvajsJordan_U: I can show you errors from journalctl -xb23:27
easyOnMek1l: why not go straight to 16.04 lts23:28
k1leasyOnMe: that is not how ubuntu upgrades work.23:29
Jordan_Uauvajs: If the files aren't that important and you want to try creating the /forcefsck file again (which has a slight chance of causing more damage but will likely get things working again if it works) then try "sudo mount -o remount,rw / && sudo touch /forcefsck && sync && sudo mount -o remount,ro / && systemctl reboot".23:29
SeminarianDoes having multiple workspaces enabled have an effect on gaming performance?23:29

=== Monthrect is now known as Piper-Off
easyOnMek1l: so you mean they are essentially the same distros23:30

k1leasyOnMe: year 2014. 4th month makes it 14.04. 2014 10th month makes it 14.10.  every 2 years its a LTS (12.04, 14.04,16.04)23:30
easyOnMeI thought those with .04 are always on lts while those .10 do not have any lts23:31
BraybauteasyOnMe, 04 = april 10 = october, 14.04 is LTS has support extend23:31
easyOnMek1l: oh now I know23:31
k1leasyOnMe: they all have a different state of program versions. and have differences like systemd was made standard since 15.0423:31
easyOnMeman are there no os that has say 10 years lts23:31

k1leasyOnMe: just stay on LTS. so make a clean 14.04 LTS intsall. that got 5 years from the start, still more than 3 years now23:32
easyOnMek1l: yup23:33
easyOnMebut is there a way to upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 without having to reinstall everything like start from scratch again23:33
k1leasyOnMe: yes23:33
easyOnMebecause those reinstallations can kill23:33
easyOnMeyou have to define ssh23:34
easyOnMeinstall firewall23:34
k1lthat is the "LTS upgrade". it is from 14.04 to 16.04 (when the 16.04.1 (first servicepack) is released)23:34
easyOnMethose are mundane tasks alreay man23:34
Jordan_Uauvajs: Call your VPS host and ask them to help you recover the data, or help you boot from a LiveCD iso/rescue system/etc.23:34
easyOnMek1l: so you mean I do not have to reinstall23:34
auvajsJordan_U: and what's the cause of the issue, any idea?23:35
k1leasyOnMe: you can still upgrade to 15.04, then to 15.10 any have to upgrade in the next 3 months to 16.04. but that is a lot more effort than make a clean proper 14.04 install now.23:35
Braybautk1l, using disk-upgrade23:35
easyOnMebut if 14.04 and 14.10 are the same versions how can I not upgrade to 16.04 then23:35
k1lBraybaut: no. not on ubuntu23:35
Jordan_Uauvajs: No idea.23:35
k1leasyOnMe: no. they are not the same!23:36
auvajsJordan_U: I just rebooted today, and the reboot failed.. didn't do any changes to the system lately23:36
easyOnMek1l: if I made a new install of 14.04 and want to upgrade to 16.04 without having to reinstall again23:36
easyOnMewhat is the terminal command to do that23:36
Braybautk1l,  view that https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-upgrade-ubuntu-12-04-lts-to-ubuntu-14-04-lts the process is similar!!23:36
k1leasyOnMe: there is no way than the 2 i showed you: reinstall to 14.04 or upgrade step by step to 15.04, 15.10 and 16.04 in 3 months23:36
Salo187Jordan_U: can i change the Resolution on the Grub file on etc/default?23:36
k1leasyOnMe: yes. i explained you now 3 times. that you can do the online upgrade from 14.04 to 16.0423:37
k1leasyOnMe: but you cant go directly to 16.04 from your 14.10 now.23:37
Braybautk1l, this process is similar from 14.04 to 16.04 https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-upgrade-ubuntu-12-04-lts-to-ubuntu-14-04-lts23:38
Jordan_USalo187: Yes, GRUB_GFXMODE : http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Simple-configuration23:38
SeminarianHey guys, Does having multiple workspaces enabled have an effect on gaming performance?23:39
k1leasyOnMe: its the same command as you use from 14.10 to 15.04. the difference is the version you are on.23:39
zquadI installed php + nginx where the hell does php store its logs?23:40
zquad:)23:40
Braybautzquad, where logs of php and nginx ?23:41
auvajsJordan_U: I think I'll risk it and try to do the force fs check23:42
k1leasyOnMe: to make it more clear: you always need to upgrade to the next version: 14.04 -> 14.10 -> 15.04 -> 15.10 -> 16.04   | except when you are on 14.04 you can overtake to the next LTS 16.04. but since you are on 14.10 you cant "overtake".23:42
easyOnMek1l: ok noted with thanks man23:43
easyOnMethis is just a bit tiresome though23:43
easyOnMebut good that you got me educated on these different version and the process of upgrading them23:44
easyOnMek1l: one more thing23:44
k1leasyOnMe: so now you can do the online update to 15.04, then to 15.10 and in 3 months to 16.04. | or you make a clean new 14.04 install. and can upgrade when you want to 16.04 later.23:44
Braybautesde_, the process is iqual in normal versions or LTS versions23:44
Salo187Jordan_U: Ok thx. And how about reducing the options on the grub itself?23:45
Salo187Jordan_U: I think one for Ubuntu, one for windows and one for a command line would be enough?23:45
easyOnMefrom 14.04 and want to upgrade to 16.04, using the command you gave or the tutorial link given the existing configuration will remain the same despite the new version right23:45
easyOnMeI mean those ssh keys, firewall settings, ftp settings and all23:46
k1leasyOnMe: yes23:46
easyOnMeincluding apache server, mysql server and what not23:46
k1leasyOnMe: they do on every online update. not only on the LTS update.23:46
easyOnMek1l: just to make myself clear and check if I understood what you said in your reply23:47
easyOnMewhen I reinstall a new 14.04 and configure everything again23:47
k1leasyOnMe: but there are still things that can go wrong. due to your settings beeing not compatible with the new version. so that is why servers tend to use LTS and are not updated every 6 months23:48
easyOnMethose configuration I set when I reinstall 14.04 will remain the same should I upgrade to 16.04 later on23:48
easyOnMek1l: ok like what are those things that can go wrong just an example23:49
easyOnMeas I am only worried about ssh keys, firewall, ftp settings, apache server, mysql server and php server23:49
k1leasyOnMe: that depends on your exact settings23:49
easyOnMethat is all23:49
k1lso if your website has some fancy setting for a guestbook, that might not work with the new apache version. or such.23:50
easyOnMek1l: oh gladly I do not have those as of now23:50
easyOnMek1l:so 16.04 is not yet available then23:51
k1lso if you want to be very sure: make a exact copy in a VM and test the upgrade before you do it on the real server. that is what admins do23:51
k1leasyOnMe: 16.04 is not released. since its not the 4th month in year 201623:51
