[00:00] ok, will take me a bit, but ill get on that. thanks [00:00] best to just ask rather than prod volunteers on an individual basis === ezri is now known as rww [00:01] * tgm4883 gets a beer for tonyyarusso [00:02] People being silly, who can be safely ignored. [00:08] [00:08] Isn't there a more preventing channel notices / CTCP messages on freenode? [00:08] ouroumov: CTCP, yes, notices, no. [00:09] that'd be more apt for #freenode [00:09] (+C stops channel-wide CTCP, which they already have here) [00:15] When a usb thumb drive auto mounts, where will I find it in the directory structure on cli? === walac_ is now known as walac === diddledan_ is now known as diddledan [00:15] Scunizi, in /media/$USER/ === scubacuda_ is now known as scubacuda === wgolden_ is now known as wgolden [00:16] ouroumov: Scunizi no. its a different path if its done by gvfs [00:16] ouroumov: thanks.. I forgot I had to go into my user. [00:16] ouroumov: I can see it in /media/$user [00:17] its /run/user/$UID/gvfs then [00:17] I didn't know about gvfs k1l_, thanks [00:18] ouroumov: for whatever reason, even though it automounted, it's not in that last directory :/ === coolstar-pc3 is now known as coolstar-pc === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [00:19] Scunizi, so try k1l_'s suggestion [00:20] ouroumov: my appologies.. your's worked fine.. k1l_ 's version didn't list anything. [00:21] Scunizi, run the command df -h [00:21] If it's mounted you should see where [00:22] ouroumov: yep.. I like that command. I'll have to posty-note that one till it sticks in my grey matter. [00:23] Scunizi, it's short for "disk free", which is not very hard to remember. ^^ [00:23] :) [00:26] can ubuntu desktop be installed with debian-installer preseed from the live cd? [00:26] since the live cd always boot to gui installer - there seem no console installer available. [00:27] mcm_, unlikely the debian installer provides ubuntu packages. [00:27] mcm_: No, the LiveCD installer doesn't can only use the Ubiquity installer. [00:27] mcm_: you can choose "install" and not "run without install" on the menue when booting [00:27] so no, use an ubuntu iso + preseed [00:27] mcm_: or you use the netinstall or server install. [00:28] how about kickstart with the live cd? [00:29] The Ubuntu installer supports automating installs using Kickstart files, as designed by Red Hat for use in their Anaconda installer [00:29] see https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/installation-guide/amd64/ch04s06.html [00:30] thank you all :-) [00:35] ouroumov: umount /media/$user/device with or without sudo results in an error that the device is busy. Is there a way to flush cache to the usb thumb drive then umount? [00:36] Scunizi, to flush the cache use the command "sync" [00:36] tomcat7 : Depends: tomcat7-common (>= 7.0.52-1ubuntu0.3) but it is not going to be installed [00:36] E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [00:36] When it completes you can unmount [00:36] ouroumov: ok. Thanks. [00:36] FWIW ... I have finally installed the 14.04 LTS on a Macbook 4,1 (circa 2008) and it is working fine (including wifi and suspend-restore) [00:36] Scunizi: I think eject will flush the buffer, even if it doesn't eject. But I'd use sync;sync;sync; then pull it. [00:36] Thanks to all that helped here in the channel !! [00:37] Loshki: :) thanks [00:37] help please [00:37] ouroumov said it first, actually... [00:37] I am running 14.04LTS and have a virtual machine installed, however when the server is booting, libvirt-bin fails to start automatically and I end up having to manually start it - which works fine. Where do I look to find out why libvirt-bin is not starting automatically? [00:38] jmitchell: start by seeing if it's mentioned in the logs in /var/log/* [00:38] ubuntu 14.04 tomcat7 : Depends: tomcat7-common (>= 7.0.52-1ubuntu0.3) but it is not going to be installed [00:38] E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [00:39] truexfan81: you've tried 'apt-get install -f' I suppose [00:39] Loshki: i have [00:39] it did nothing [00:39] Is ther documentation out there for full disk encryption but dual booting with windows? [00:39] truexfan81: I think I'd like to see the output if possible [00:39] truexfan81, run update, maybe your lists are out of date? [00:39] Loshki: except reported packages that can be removed with "autoremove" [00:40] OerHeks: possibly [00:40] its an ovh dedi [00:40] truexfan81: 14.04, being an LTS, is supposed to be rock solid. Did you do something special? [00:41] Loshki: i put forsaken world server on it [00:41] truexfan81: never heard of it, sorry... [00:42] Loshki: forsaken world is an mmorpg [00:44] ohhhhh my memory just came back, Loshki i know exactly how i broke it, gonna take alot of playing with dpkg to fix it lol [00:44] truexfan81: So is that from some 3rd party repository? And does it all go back to normal if you remove 'forsaken world'? [00:44] Loshki: thats not what broke it [00:45] Loshki: what broke it was me being stupid and trying to install every php5 package using php5-* [00:45] truexfan81, sudo apt-get install aptitude, then sudo aptitude install tomcat7, it should prompt you with options, the default one being the same as with apt-get: do nothing. If you answer no it will try to come up with other options. [00:46] i got a problem all is set to keep no password ubuntu15 mozilla with no script and my facebook connect alone where is that files so i can erase my pass and stop the linkin of all email adress enter in the browser [00:46] ouromov I love aptitude ... shy so many people DONT like it? [00:46] Loshki: that suggestion from ouroumov fixed it [00:46] aptitude saves the day :D [00:47] ty all [00:47] How would I discern if I selected to encrypt my home? Would the giveaway be the existence of /home/.ecryptfs ? Wondering because I think I used luks encryption, then also encrypted my home, which doesn't make sense (afict) on a single account machine... [00:47] where facebook hide the password keeping and how to stop that [00:47] ouroumov saves the day.... [00:50] prout: Please use complete sentences, with appropriate capitalization and punctuation. Your messages are very hard to understand. [00:50] sorry englissh not first languague [00:50] on Trusty 14.04 LTS does anyone know if it will get an updated PHP ? ie. > 5.5.9 ? [00:50] Loshki, here is the pastebin with the relevant lines from syslog and libvirt-bin.log [00:50] http://pastebin.ca/3372098 [00:51] prout: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/delete-cookies-remove-info-websites-stored [00:52] jmitchell: this looks suspicious. A home grown script? "Feb 11 17:25:02 aphrodite CRON[3326]: (jmitchell) CMD (/home/jmitchell/scripts/check-libvirt.sh #Checks to see if libvirtd is running and if not starts the upstart job libvirt-bin.)" [00:52] so i have make all setting in mozilla browser to dont keep pass and erase memory cache and i use a password manager in the communal living room is for everybody in the house and when we open the facebook the last person to log inn is automaticaly log on even when keep log in is deactivate and all email use even with a other site is add to the facebook list [00:52] jmitchell: also this. Someone sent a TERM signal to libvert. wtf? "init: libvirt-bin main process (3255) killed by TERM signal" [00:53] prout: use a 'private' window in firefox? [00:53] Loshki, I made that to try and get around libvirt-bin not starting, but that does not seem to be working either. If you like, I can post that script up as well. [00:53] hello [00:53] even with private do the same [00:53] and all other computer in the house do the same even the window 10 [00:53] jmitchell: might as well. No promises, mind you... [00:53] Loshki, I don't get it either, unless it timed out and that is what generated the term signal. [00:54] i have added my user name to www-data groups so as to have write perms but my php script fails to create a ..txt file [00:54] prout: if it's a communal machine which isn't supposed to save settings, why not ask the owner/admin to wipe out .mozilla/ to see if that stops facebook? [00:54] prout: that doesn't make sense to me. [00:54] prout: you're saying that even with a private tab, it'll come up with whoever logged in last? [00:55] just try it and yes i [00:55] prout: So if you open a Private Browsing Window: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/private-browsing-use-firefox-without-history and navigate to https://facebook.com you will already be logged in? [00:56] the thing is even the window 10 computer that just have got update on the net is never connected do the same [00:56] Loshki, it can be found at http://pastebin.ca/3372099 === Guest88791 is now known as imrekt [00:57] i can live with that butr i want to know where is hiding those data [00:57] prout: So if you open a Private Browsing Window: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/private-browsing-use-firefox-without-history and navigate to https://facebook.com you will already be logged in? [00:57] It may be rude of me to ask, but I think I'd need video evidence to believe it at this point. [00:58] jmitchell: sorry, out of ideas at this point :-( [00:59] Loshki, that is ok, thanks for taking a look. I have been out of ideas for a while. If I manually start libvirt-bin, it has no problems and takes a matter of moments. I will just have to keep doing that. Thanks again. [00:59] in private he dont memozise the pass and i have remove all history and cache all email still available [00:59] prout firefox can save data on its own cloud [00:59] CoolRabbit: also supported by owncloud :) [00:59] so i just remove facebook from the available pages [01:00] SchrodingersScat, ;) [01:02] thank gang [01:02] why do people in ubuntu dont like aptitude? [01:02] this doesn't work https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/tomcat.html [01:03] CoolRabbit: It's not installed by default. I don't think there is really any "dislike" for aptitude. [01:03] followed that guide, it doesn't accept my login info [01:03] Jordan_U, in Debian it is installed ... why the change? [01:11] CoolRabbit: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/06/aptitude-removed-from-ubuntu-1010.html suggests that it was originally removed (from the default install) to save space. My guess is that currently it's mostly momentum. [01:12] ah, user quit [01:12] Jordan_U, at that time, aptitude does not obey pins in preferences.d/* [01:13] Loshki, I fixed my script so that it no longer uses sudo and needs to be executed by root in the cron. That should take care of that. (I have already removed the pastebins...) [01:18] anyone else find it annoying when you follow directions and things don't work? [01:19] depends on the source and the age [01:21] truexfan81: welcome to computers [01:21] jmitchell: something to do with the environment at start time, I suppose. At least you have a workaround. [01:21] truexfan81, i would start questioning OVH [01:22] i'm starting to think tomcat is the most agrivating program i've ever tried to use [01:22] truexfan81: the only exceptions being every other program I've ever tried to use [01:22] Loshki, Yeah - I just wish I was better at the whole troubleshooting thing with Linux. At least I am better at it now than before, so that is one positive! [01:24] its like if you follow the directions to configure a plain text username and password, save, restart the service...why would it not accept said username and password and put nothing into the log? [01:24] jmitchell: boot-time stuff especially can be difficult to impossible to diagnose for mortals. And you're going to have to learn systemd soon, aren't you? [01:25] Loshki, apparently. This is already a mix of systemd and init with upstart tossed in. Lotsa fun! [01:26] hi [01:26] http://pastebin.com/xqZZQJGa <-- what's this error about? [01:26] to be honest tomcat is more horrible-java-and-apache-wrapped-together than it is specifically Linux nastiness ;) [01:27] Roey: looks to me like trying to install packages from another version of ubuntu on another [01:28] hello guys [01:28] hi [01:29] daftykins: ok [01:29] I mean it's a straight install of kubuntu [01:29] Roey, line 9 linux-image-generic missing?

[01:59] it's a java application server, so no [02:00] i've tried every troubleshooting guide i can find on google, none of it fixes my issue, and #httpd and #tomcat are both dead [02:00] i'll try #freenode that usually works [02:04] truexfan81: how about starting with what you're actualy trying to do? [02:04] daftykins: i am trying to get the tomcat7 admin webapp to let me login [02:05] daftykins: i started with this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/tomcat.html [02:05] no, from a higher level [02:05] you have a specific java web app? [02:06] daftykins: yes, its called iweb, allows me to have more control over my game server [02:06] truexfan81, I see they sent you a response on httpd. [02:06] yeah i just got the hilight, brb [02:07] i would recommend avoiding anything java :) [02:07] can't be helped in this case sadly [02:08] only the developers in china that wrote the game could change it, and they have 0 motivation to do so [02:09] what's the game? [02:09] Forsaken World [02:10] Jordan_U: hi [02:10] hi all [02:12] anyone can help me? I got this issue with a fresh 14.04 not rebooting or shuting down, and stucking with desktop pic. From what i googled, it is a known issue, but the only solutions i found were on how to manually command it to do so. Any way to make the shutdown and reboot buttons to work? [02:22] Salo187, I have a similar situation with a MacOS like app dock installed (can't remember what it is called offhand), where the upper-right shutdown and reboot commands do not work, but the power button on the dock does work. Do you have something similar going on perhaps? [02:26] how you all doing [02:26] i got ubuntu 14 lts installed [02:26] its pretty god [02:32] hi [02:35] is there a way to pipe an output back into the shell that I started from [02:36] so for this example i'm piping an output from xclip -o and want to run it... could just do xlip -o | bash but that seems strange [02:43] hi my friends [02:47] I'm under the impression that ubuntu doesn't up my fanspeed while playing games [02:47] Is there a package that I should install for this functionality?

Im using refind and 15.10 on a Macbook pro. I'm definitely a noob, my bad if this turns out to be a ridiculous question. I eventually booted on a live USB stick, and removed the lines of code I ad [04:11] ded to that file (from the tutorial) (on the actual ubuntu, not my live usb's filesystem). Still no luck. I installed boot-repair on the liveusb, but only generated a report to pastebin as I wasn't sure if running it would be the best choice of action as of yet. the report is here (https://paste.ubuntu.com/15021793/).

[07:04] pragomer_1: because ~ is interpreted by the shell, and that file probably isn't interpreted by a shell. use file:///home/you/Downloads instead [07:05] hi Triffid_Hunter... I cannot use "you"... because I want to put the file in /etc/skel.... so that it is used by every new user [07:07] pragomer_1: may have to programmatically generate it then.. something like ' if [ ! -e "~/.config/gkt-3.0/bookmarks" ]; then echo file:///$HOME/Downloads > ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks; fi ' in /usr/local/bin perhaps, then a relevant .desktop in /etc/skel/.config/autostart/ or maybe chuck it in /etc/skel/.bashrc if you're expecting terminal logins [07:08] ok.. mm.. this might work.. but I am sure the distro developers should have a more easier way.. dont you think?

There may be a Z solution that is even better than Y, but nobody can suggest it if X is never mentioned. [08:10] is there a GUI way to create an *.img?

[09:24] EriC^^, yeah apologies can't remember and not in this os history, something like normal? iirc? [09:24] EriC^^, n00b error? [09:24] Rachael_: ok, so you just changed prompt=lts to prompt=normal , that's perfectly fine [09:25] is your stuff still in the os? ( as it's not encrypted anymore O.o ) [09:25] try ls -lR /home [09:25] sorry, ls -lR /mnt/home [09:25] EriC^^, I can see it when I log in on the os [09:26] EriC^^, but i can't see my home directory from here [09:26] ok, so just for the record, it upgraded directly from 14.04 to 15.10 ?

[09:30] Rachael_: yeah, try sudo nano /mnt/etc/fstab [09:31] alias man='man --nj --nh' [09:33] EriC^^, i'm in [09:33] Rachael_: you mean fstab or the os? [09:34] EriC^^, the fstab; unedit the UUID line, and error the other UUID? [09:35] Rachael_: yeah enable the first UUID [09:35] there are 2 swap uuids at the bottom, the old one is for a normal swap, the bottom is for an encrypted swap ( 15.10 has that ) [09:36] but you dont have a swap on the second hdd [09:36] EriC^^, cool de-hashed the line [09:37] what do you want to do about the swap though? [09:37] EriC^^, http://termbin.com/hhr4 [09:37] you could use the swap on the first hdd, but if you remove it it would error out when you boot the os [09:37] EriC^^, is this correct? [09:37] yeah [09:38] EriC^^, not sure the OS was trying to access the swap and timing out on boot [09:38] yeah, i think it'll wait for like 30secs then continue [09:39] EriC^^, yeah think it was counting to 1:30 [09:39] EriC^^, what do you think, try to boot from here? [09:39] nah [09:40] there's still the 2 swaps [09:40] EriC^^, nah... tell me you're another kiwi :) [09:40] comment them out for a bit [09:40] EriC^^, the bottom 2 lines?

[09:47] yeah put the uuid [09:47] http://termbin.com/cs0t [09:48] EriC^^, is the spacing important in the fstab file? [09:48] nope [09:50] Hi all. I'm currently experimenting with building my own packages using opkg-utils from yocto project. I've manipulated an installed file and did a "dpkg --verify " and got `??5?????? /usr/bin/hello` which wasn't printed before i've manipulated the file [09:50] EriC^^, sweet think I'm there [09:50] Can anyone explain, what this ??5?????? means?

[10:38] !itunes | agent_white, nope. [10:38] agent_white, nope.: itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee [10:38] or cfhowlett [10:38] agent_white: what fileformat are they? [10:39] agentk, or try virtualbox + win7 + intunes [10:39] Amit__: so you manually changed the sources.list to utopic and ran apt-get dist-upgrade? that is not the way for ubuntu to upgrade. [10:39] cfhowlett: Wrong person? [10:39] and then upgraded [10:39] with aptget [10:39] i changed in the update manager [10:39] Amit__: that is just bad [10:40] agent_white, some would say so [10:40] agentk: See the text above cfhowlett sent. It was meant for you. [10:40] is there a command to remove all packages installed from a given repo [10:40] is there any way to check if ubuntu is still installed?

[10:47] xenial is ready around april 21 [10:47] hmm, windows shows no partitions called ext4 [10:47] what i would like to recommend to make partition data area [10:47] Amit__, because windows doesnt read ext4 [10:47] to store all data that we create own [10:47] do not attempt to fix this with windows [10:47] oh. What should I use then? [10:47] as ext4 [10:48] :) [10:48] amit download ... ubuntu ... make USB ... boot USB ... [10:48] ok.

[10:57] yes [10:57] assuming you are using openjdk [10:57] i am [10:57] then try openjdk [10:57] i will try [10:58] if it does it in openjdk too, then its probably something other than java causing it [11:00] I'm a little bit confused as to which of the things I should do, I'm going for 15.04, should I use win32 disk imager?

[11:11] yeah just try that real quick and see if it gives the same error [11:12] openjdk usually works good but there might be some programs that dont like it [11:13] if I have BIOS settings then I am running in BIOS mode right? [11:14] yes [11:14] ok. [11:14] what do you mean by bios settings? [11:15] when starting the computer up i can enter some bios settings [11:15] when you go into the uefi settings when you boot up, there should be an option in there to boot in bios mode [11:15] I dont think I have that [11:15] it should be in there somewhere [11:16] i might be called legacy mode or something like that [11:16] or bios compatibility mode [11:16] I dont wanna restart rn cuz downloading stuff. And since I am able to enter bios settings then I probably already in that mode [11:16] hi guys, is there ubuntu for raspberry pi 2? Someone knows about performance if exsists ? [11:16] well if by bios settings you mean the config menu you go to when you boot up, its the uefi settings, not the bios settings [11:16] raspbian = raspberry+debian [11:16] if you are using a uefi motherboard [11:17] I don't know what Im using [11:17] shallwe: there is ubuntu, but raspbian is better [11:17] raspbian is more mature and specifically adapted for the pi [11:17] I have ubuntu 12.04, I installed gcc 5.3 from the repos. I try to compile "#include ", and it complains that it cannot find header cmath. I checked with strace, and it's not attempting to access it even once [11:18] popnfloss: thanks man! i was just curious :) [11:18] so what's going on, is ubuntu shipping a broken gcc 5.3? [11:18] sorry for butting in - is it possible to use raspberry pi software on a pc with ubuntu mate? [11:18] pisto: #include ? [11:19] Amit___, when you boot, you'll see the grub menu. if purple = bios. if black = uefi [11:19] its black [11:19] shallwe, doesn't help. also, it should be "cmath" in c++ [11:19] Amit___, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI#Identifying_if_the_computer_boots_the_Ubuntu_DVD_in_UEFI_mode [11:19] note that there exists /usr/include/c++/5.3/cmath [11:19] it just doesn't even try to read it [11:19] pisto: humm understand [11:19] ok its UEFI.

[11:21] RustyKnight, using pi software on ubuntu? never heard of it. possible to emulate in virtualbox? [11:21] k1l: nice, i will buy one raspberry py 2 soon for test, soh i will try it :) [11:21] it's just ridiculous that ubuntu ships a broken by default g++ [11:21] One more question. I chown'ed my external HD and it changed the group but it is still under the ownership of root. I'm starting to get irritated because it seems linux hates me and everything I do in it is just one great big fight. Does anyone know what might be going on? [11:21] if theres no legacy mode option in the uefi menu, you could try a firmware update and see if that adds it [11:21] pisto: i dont know man but you are using 12.04 to old [11:21] i know acer released a firmware update to add the legacy option [11:21] popnfloss: are you speaking to me?

[12:50] ;_; [12:51] Amit_, no worries ... do it again and this time we will include /swap [12:51] Ok i did the changes again [12:51] cfhowlett i admire your patience ... i'd boot the livecd or usb, use gparted to create partitions, then install [12:51] Amit_, while that's going... what version of windows ?? [12:51] mucking about with so called auto partitioning is hopeless with multiple partitions [12:51] EriC^^? [12:51] Windows 8.1, and what's going? [12:52] Where do I put the swap thing [12:52] Amit_, partition 7 = 512 mb [12:52] no cfhowlett I mean use manual, not auto [12:52] Yeah [12:52] Its already configured to be swap area [12:53] So I press Install Now? [12:53] Amit_, perfect! add your 10 gb / root and your /home [12:53] Done already [12:53] install [12:53] Ok its doing stuff [12:53] ... stuff is good [12:53] Askin me questions [12:53] Thats nice of yhem I guess [12:54] and it wwill continue to install for 20mins or so [12:54] hi, I am trying to run a simple shell script from my desktop. when I double click and press "run", nothing happens. but when I run it in the terminal via ./script.sh, it works? [12:54] Ok it's installing [12:54] Yeeey [12:55] lalsa, it's meant to be run from the terminal prompt [12:56] ioria: Ive taken a screenshot http://users.telenet.be/doornhoek/screenshot.png ..

[12:57] Grub* [12:57] Kallis: hm, id try fixing your dns problem first, its mostlikely the cause it cant joing the domain [12:58] i will check my dns on the server, but all the fqdn's etc work on the windows machines [12:58] here's a good newb question. I have two nics: eno1 (internet) and enp0s25 (lan). I need to create a gateway (for internet access) on the lan, so I suppose I need to use nat. but I have no idea of how to do this. I received this script - http://paste.ubuntu.com/15023804/ - but I'm struggling to understand which is INTIF and which is INTIF2 (as I have only one lan nic). can you give me a hand [12:58] please? [12:58] lalsa, the terminal opens and waits for the the command [12:59] Kallis: the recommended configuration is to only use the AD dns servers on your clients, especialy if your ad uses your public dns name, also do you use .local? that could conflict with avahai [12:59] do I need to first generate a new nic:1 and assign it a lan IP, than nat it..? [12:59] i do use .local [12:59] !terminal | lalsa [12:59] lalsa: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful.

I only want cairo-dock! [13:01] Seminarian, so what happens when you close terminal ? [13:02] OerHeks: the cairo-dock hides.. And the bottom "taskbar" remains [13:03] Seminarian, are you using compiz now ? [13:04] touch vs cat ? [13:04] mgolisch, should i just comment out the mdns4 section in nsswitch.conf or should i vhange avahi to something instead of .local ? [13:04] hmm gnome, there must be a tweak for that, i run unity, not gnome-panel [13:04] ioria: to my knowledge no, how can i be sure? [13:04] Seminarian, ps -A | grep compiz [13:05] ioria: nop no compiz [13:06] Seminarian, there are tweaks to not-start or hide the panel @ http://glx-dock.org/ww_page.php?p=remove%20the%20last%20gnome%20panel&lang=en [13:06] & http://glx-dock.org/ww_page.php?p=F.A.Q&lang=en#19-The%20dock%20is%20hidden%20by%20the%20Gnome-panel === ubuntu is now known as Guest85197 [13:08] how can i flush my dns cache please ?

[13:08] Kallis: there is no such thing [13:08] oh ok, i was just reading once i changed the avahi setting i needed to flush the cache [13:09] avahi might have something like that, i wonder why its installed on a server anyways [13:09] i dont think ubuntu server contains that by default [13:09] hey,I was installing pycharm.So I downloaded pycharm.tar.gz file from its site.extraxt it.now how to install it ?

Parted says my hard drive uses MBR. Since I have dual boot win7 and ubuntu I'm a little confused as to how the boot procedure works for me...

[13:20] cfhowlett: he is using open proxies. not only one ip [13:20] ... clever troll. [13:22] EriC^^ When I first got the laptop it was ubuntu only. Shortly after getting it, I deleted all partitions (in win7 live installer usb) and installed win7. I vaguely remember having to change to legacy bios mode to get it to recognize the win7 usb stick (i ought to check this in my "boot options" settings on startup). [13:22] C_minus: ok, it might have been ubuntu uefi and changed to msdos for win7 [13:22] perhaps it was a GPT disk when I first got it [13:22] yeah [13:24] EriC^^ There is a tool sgdisk that can clean this mess up, correct? [13:24] fixparts [13:25] C_minus: yeah, ^ run sudo fixparts [13:25] mgolisch, it says i am successfully connected, what is the command to list users and groups, i tried wbinfo -u and -g but it has no output [13:26] /etc/resolv.conf is not being generated correctly. I have amended /etc/network/interfaces as per `man 8 resolvconf` and it now looks like this: https://0x0.st/XE7.txt but the generated resolv.conf only contains the information from DHCP on eth0: https://0x0.st/XEh.txt [13:27] mgolisch, getent shows me groups and users so it appears to be good [13:27] Apart from “disable resolvconf automatic updates and write my own”, is there any ‘proper’ way to fix it? [13:27] Here's where I'm confused. Is the partition table held in the first 512 bytes of my hard drive? is this in the small 100MB "system reserved" partition created by win7? [13:28] Or is it located before that "system reserved" partition begins even? [13:29] mgolisch, i should now be able to use those groups and users in my Samba config as well as for ACL's correct ? === [UPA]Stefan is now known as Tronsha [13:30] is there any way to see if a PXE server is running? [13:30] C_minus: it's located before those all, not in a partition [13:31] Razva: on the server itself or what do you mean [13:31] haasn, /etcresolv.conf is overwritten by /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head, enter your naneservers or other dns entries there, and ignore the warning , unless you are using network-manager [13:32] BluesKaj: I consider that a work-around/hack. Isn't there a proper fix? [13:32] For example I may be getting information via DHCP from multiple interfaces [13:32] haasn, use networkmanager, or remove it and write your own config [13:32] In that example I couldn't just hack around it by hard-coding it into resolv.conf [13:34] EriC^^ Oh OK that makes more sense, since it contains metadata about the boundaries of all the partitions, right? Does it contain some kind of pointer to start GRUB? I don't understand how I can have an MBR alongside some GPT information. Aren't they meant to occupy the same location on the disk (i.e. the very beginning)? [13:34] haasn sudo -e /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base [13:34] haasn then add nameserver and then: sudo resolvconf -u [13:34] haasn, it a suggestion, if you have other methods theat you think will work, then fine. [13:35] hateball exactly. [13:35] Razva: netstat -untap, check if it's listening? [13:35] Razva: or query the service, whichever pxe server you are using [13:35] hateball I'm running Ubuntu Cloud and I cannot PXE boot. I want to see if the issue is at MAAS not providing DHCP, or some networking issue [13:35] C_minus: yeah it has some part of the grub code after the partition table, gpt uses more than 512, in this page you'll find a ton of info about gpt and mbr https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GUID_Partition_Table [13:36] any idea how I could pipe 'echo "wXorXd aXb cdX"' to something that would replace X only in the first word? ("wYorYd aXb cdX") [13:36] bibi23: sed [13:36] EriC^^ Ah I understand, thank you. [13:37] bibi23: echo XXX |sed 's/X//' [13:37] bibi23 if you don't get an answer here, try in #bash [13:37] hateball: Only in the first word [13:38] rilleh: ah right, both X in first word, I read as first occurrence [13:40] hateball: nope that doesn't work, replaces only the first character, I'm asking in ##sed maybe they have an idea [13:41] C_minus: no problem [13:42] bibi23: Yes I know, I am trying to remember how to match the first word. Might be easier using awk [13:43] Ah sed, everytime you use it, you have to spend 10 minutes on google beforehand to remember the fucking syntax [13:43] !language [13:43] The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [13:43] Sorry [13:43] hateball: any solution welcome, if awk is better suited that's fine, I've also been trying to search for some time but couldn't find :/ [13:44] rilleh not if you're familiar with it [13:44] I'm not [13:44] :/ [13:44] echo -e "wXorXd aXb cdX" | sed -r 's/\X.//' [13:44] rilleh you have to look up everything and anything you're not familiar with [13:49] ioria: for me it replaces only the first character ("wYrXd aXb cdX"), not sure if I miss something? === arun_ is now known as Guest18403 [13:55] MonkeyDust: BluesKaj: I fixed my problem in the proper way. Turns out /run/resolvconf/interfaces was not properly populated, fixed it by running: ifdown eth1; ip addr flush dev eth1; ifup eth1 [13:55] Now the file contains the correct information and resolvconf correctly populates resolv.conf [13:57] I have a major problem with DNS queries. AAAA queries precede A queries and I would like to change this as our DNS doesn't keep IPv6 entries for the moment. After looking online a bit you should be able to change the precendence of resolutions in a file called /etc/gai.conf which I've tried by adding the option precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 100 which doesn't affect programs like curl, with ping however the setting [13:57] seems to work? Is the reason that curl uses glibc method gethostname and ping uses getaddressinfo? [13:57] haasn, /run/resolvconf/interfaces? [13:57] /36/36 [13:57] which ubuntu do u recommend for a P3 500Mhz 192mb ram laptop? [13:58] xubuntu [13:58] cnnx, xfce [13:58] \ [13:58] id recommend not using ubuntu at all [13:58] cnnx, xubuntu [13:58] what about a p3 with 1ghz and 768mb ram? can i put regualr ubuntu? [13:58] xubuntu [13:58] too [13:58] ok ill stop downloading the regular one then [13:59] is xubuntu nice too? [13:59] does it look like the real [13:59] if you ask me, it's nicer :P [13:59] 192mb doesnt come close to the minimum requirements [13:59] i would suggest a minimal debian install [13:59] and a basic window manager [13:59] like openbox or something [13:59] so debian instead of ubuntu [13:59] on both? [14:00] the one with 768mb should handle ubuntu ok [14:00] I agree with popnfloss [14:00] popnfloss: regular ubuntu? [14:00] ubuntu is basically debian with a bunch of extra stuff slapped on [14:00] ok [14:00] popnfloss don't say that [14:01] popnfloss it's not true and confuses beginners [14:01] commandline debian has a minimum requirement of 128mb of ram [14:01] it is true [14:01] popnfloss, don't express opnions as facts [14:01] and it is a fact [14:01] ok so ubuntu 32bit on the 768mb one, and what on the 192mb? [14:02] cnnx: if there is a *ubuntu running on that old machine, then its Lubuntu. but i doubt that will make sense/fun. better look out for very small distributions focusing on stoneage hardware [14:02] debian base install or something lighter [14:02] popnfloss, "a bunch of extra stuff" is not really a meaningful description. OS X is the mach kernel with a bunch of extra stuff. [14:02] bibi23, echo -e "wXorXd aXb cdX" | sed 's/X//1' removes the first X , and echo -e "wXorXd aXb cdX" | sed 's/X//2' removes the second ... [14:02] ok thanks guys [14:02] yes it is [14:02] ubuntu is debian with extra programs installed [14:02] popnfloss stop [14:03] cnnx, ubuntu might install on 768mb but it will bew slow and clunky [14:03] if you want proof, install ubuntu and debian base installs and compare the hard disk and ram usage [14:03] BluesKaj: /run/resolvconf/interface I mean [14:03] Guys I'm maintaining one of the family PCs over SSH atm. It has Ubuntu 12.04 on it. Whats your experiance with "do-release-upgrade" on an older distro version. Should I just leave it at 12.04 as it works [14:03] BluesKaj: Also, now I have a different bug: /etc/resolvconf/interface-order seems to be ignored [14:03] popnfloss: no its not. [14:03] BluesKaj: xubuntu is ubuntu with xfce? [14:03] yes [14:03] x0g: do-release-upgrade should work just fine [14:03] nice [14:03] cnnx, yes [14:03] ok ill download that [14:03] it also has extra stuff on top of xfce to make it more ubuntu-ey [14:03] popnfloss: several things are very different. like the usage of upstart. own kernels, .... so stop that [14:03] and put debian minimal on the 192 [14:04] x0g: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases 2017 is EOL [14:04] !xfce [14:04] Xfce is a lightweight and configurable desktop environment used by !Xubuntu. Read more at http://xfce.org/ [14:04] i said ubuntu has more stuff installed in a base install than debian, which is true [14:04] cnnx, ^ [14:04] i dont understand why this is so controversial [14:04] .D [14:04] its not an attack on ubuntu, its just a fact [14:04] :D* [14:04] hateball: Ok, will read what Kimse sait too. Thanks ^^ [14:05] said* [14:05] with systemd, just creating a .conf file in /etc/init/ will exec or do i need to enable it? [14:05] popnfloss, it's not controversial it's just not useful. [14:05] popnfloss: thats not what you said. just stop that topic. ##linux for that discussion [14:05] anyway this argument is offtopic and stupid [14:05] popnfloss, enough, if you want to give debian support , join #debian [14:05] hateball ever setup Ubuntu Cloud? [14:05] Razva: No [14:05] ugh [14:05] i hate distro loyalists [14:05] how dare you suggest another distro besides ubuntu, everyone must use ubuntu [14:05] popnfloss, very helpfull, join #ubuntu-discuss for such input [14:05] got nothing to do with loyalty , it's the rules here, popnfloss [14:06] can we agree on this from the wiki: "Ubuntu is based on Debian, sharing many of its packages, tools and techniques with that project." [14:06] popnfloss: have you met Arch loyalists ? [14:06] Editor loyalists [14:07] Lets move on. [14:09] Hey .. isnt ubuntu just debian .... with some stuff on top?

[14:32] alias pasteit='nc termbin.com 9999' [14:32] bugseeker: connect it to the internet, then run sudo parted -l | pasteit [14:32] BluesKaj: Well, since the network scripts seems to be more aggressively bugged in more ways than one (/etc/network/run/ifstate not updated, /run/resolvconf/interfaces not being populated, /etc/resolvconf/interface-order being ignored, etc.) I've decided to just go with the hack you suggested and move on with life [14:34] How can I alias some more complex stuff? [14:34] haasn, it's not really a hack, for some reason that file was chosen to overwite /etc/resolve.conf for reasons I can't recall atm, it's been around for 3yrs at least. [14:34] guest: you can make functions [14:34] e.g. alias "pep8" so doing "pep8 foo.py" really performs "pep8 foo.py | grep bar" [14:34] EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15024392/ [14:34] like a hook but for bash [14:34] is that what a function is? [14:35] guest: pep8() { pep8 "$1" | grep bar; } [14:35] BluesKaj: I consider it a hack because just hard-coding the information that, *by design*, should be properly populated from /etc/network/interfaces, simply because this population process doesn't produce the correct result is, to me, almost the very definition of hack [14:35] oh right, cos that will get loaded if I put it in bashrc [14:35] nice === PegeLinux is now known as Jemblink [14:36] whatever it's defined as , it works if you don't use network-manager, haasn [14:36] bugseeker: ok, sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt [14:36] EriC^^: I tried that, but I think it's calling itsself and getting stuck in a loop [14:36] guest: oh, right [14:36] EriC^^: ok, then restart? [14:37] in lubuntu . delete all failes in /var/lg and now gdm.service wont start, pc is stuck at boot, how can i fix this? [14:37] guest: give it the complete path to the bin [14:37] bugseeker: no [14:37] EriC^^: Thanks I did that and it worked [14:38] While I'm here is there a better way to exclude rules from pep8 other than literally grepping them out of the results? [14:38] EriC^^: what do i do else [14:38] EriC^^ One more thing: should I go to a live session to use fixparts on /dev/sda? Or is it OK to use right here whilst running ubuntu? [14:38] bugseeker: type " for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done " [14:39] BluesKaj: That's true, hacks work. At least, they do for some time. Usually until somebody forgets about them. Doesn't make them good practice [14:39] sorry its gnome-ubuntu-not lubuntu [14:39] C_minus: i think it's ok but use a live session, not sure [14:39] I prefer resorting to hacks only when I can't figure out a proper solution. In this case, I could not (after 1-2 hours of debugging and testing and staring at shell scripts), so hack it is. [14:40] haasn i collect hacks as snippets in Zim [14:40] EriC^^: ok [14:40] EriC^^: did it [14:40] EriC^^ OK cool thanks. I already made a backup of the first 512 bytes of my disk, so if it goes horribly wrong I should be able to restore that and boot again, yes?

[19:58] zebe: yea, some uefi are badly implemented and they will only boot windows files so files are switched sometimes to trick it into booting other os === Xenthys is now known as Famthys [19:58] I seem to remember this not accelerating flash in windows [19:58] exit [19:58] quit [19:58] so it wouldnt work in Linux :)) [19:58] EriC^^: http://termbin.com/ozil ok ok [19:58] chortle..

So I have held back packages on 14.04 LTS. Now what? I don't want to run dist-upgrade as suggested on AskUbuntu, since I am pretty comfortable with LTS. [20:07] VAIO-USER2016: cp /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi.backup [20:08] I'm somewhat stuck at "ubuntu login: _", no matter what I type I don't get any feedback and it won't load up. what happens here? [20:08] t0by: you're confusing dist-upgrade with dist-upgrade-release [20:08] t0by: dist-upgrade just upgrades the kernel and other stuff sometimes, it stays lts [20:08] what up [20:09] EriC^^: it didnt work (got stuck on toshiba loading screen that would flash every one in a while with some lines of code) and secure boot is disabled. [20:09] EriC^^, elgigante - sorry, my mistake. So should it be safe? Note that a while ago I had to install the kernel from vivid (linux-something-lts-vivid) because of hardware support - and it is among the "held back" packages., [20:09] anyone having computer issues? [20:10] zebe: ok try booting the live usb, then sudo apt-get install efibootmgr [20:10] done it [20:10] zebe: efibootmgr -c -w -l \\EFI\\Boot\\bootx64.efi -L "windows" -p 1 -d /dev/sda [20:10] timolander, lol? [20:11] I'm having computer issues ... [20:11] t0by: yeah it should be fine, you can always boot the older kernel if it doesn't work out [20:12] I still dual boot with Win7 lol [20:12] VAIO-USER2016: cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi [20:12] *hides in corner* [20:13] This is the list of my held back packages, notice anything fishy? http://pastebin.com/fy7KEPiv [20:13] EriC^^, ^ [20:14] t0by: looks ok [20:14] Ou of curiosity, *why* could it be that I have "held back" packages? [20:14] t0by: you need to run "sudo apt full-upgrade". that will not bring you to 14.10. it will just install those held back packages [20:14] !dist-upgrade | t0by [20:14] t0by: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [20:15] I don't have exceptionally fishy sources [20:15] t0by: the gui updater would install those packages. so please do that with "sudo apt full-upgrade" [20:15] t0by: upgrade just won't install anything new or remove anything to satisfy dependencies or an upgrade [20:15] Ah [20:15] THanks k1l [20:15] Eric^^: got the following errors: "Could not set variable: Permission denied" and "Could not prepare boot variable: Permission denied" [20:15] t0by: they are held back since the old apt-get was used differently when it was invented. its not bringing you to 14.10 now. [20:15] Ah [20:16] GUI updater tells me "Not all updates can be installed" [20:16] you might have waited so long that its an issue now. so please run that command i gave you [20:16] t0by: dist-upgrade can install or remove stuff to satisfy upgrade dependencies [20:17] zebe: are you booted in uefi mode? try ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi [20:17] t0by and close the gui [20:17] EriC^^, hi there, I'm still having problems when you have time to help, your time is much appreciated :) [20:18] Rachael__: hi :) what's the problem?

[20:34] zebe: hmm no idea, hardware maybe? [20:35] VAIO-USER2016: yeah [20:35] Rachael__: ok, enable the /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 in fstab [20:35] EriC^^: my categories are Main, Security, PowerManagement and Advanced but I didnt find anything related to ahci or hdd... [20:36] EriC^^, http://termbin.com/fnis in case this was useful too [20:36] done eric [20:36] it says not such a file or directory === abra0 is now known as and [20:36] Rachael__: then i think we need to prepare that last swap to be an encrypted one, uuid wasn't showing in blkid iirc [20:36] There is ascpi under hdd setting [20:36] Rachael__: thanks, yeah :) === muskrat is now known as the [20:37] it says use netcat === the is now known as muskrat [20:37] EriC^^, sweet so just unhash the bottom UUID? [20:37] EriC^^: no ahci but i got some stuff related to eSATA and SATA, dont know if it matters [20:38] EriC^^: guess not, it's related to power consumption [20:38] VAIO-USER2016: try grep bootmgfw.efi.backup /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/efi/20microsoft [20:39] Rachael__: yup [20:39] Sometimes it s matter my os wont load if i swicth those setting [20:40] EriC^^, and leave the rest as is? [20:40] ciao [20:41] done it did something and display bootmgfw.efi.backup in red color [20:41] EriC^^, so now it looks like this http://termbin.com/o4n8 [20:43] VAIO-USER2016: ok, type sudo update-grub [20:43] done it [20:43] EriC^^, I've really gotta tidy up my partitions :) [20:45] Rachael__: it's alright :D [20:46] Rachael__: disable the line with UUID= as that's the normal swap [20:46] and enable the one below it that starts with /dev/mapper === and is now known as abra0 [20:48] Rachael__: i'm pretty much just guessing from here on out, so i guess we'll see what happens i guess [20:49] Rachael__: i think you need to prepare the swap partition first, and then when it has a uuid you can add it to /etc/crypttab so it knows about it.. ( following this here http://askubuntu.com/questions/463661/encrypted-swap-partition-for-14-04 ) [20:49] VAIO-USER2016: did it pick up windows? [20:49] should i restart? [20:49] EriC^^, sweet, thanks heaps for your help [20:50] EriC^^: sorry, don't want to bother, but was that our last chance or...? [20:50] Rachael__: try sudo cryptsetup -d /dev/urandom create cryptswap /dev/sda5 [20:50] yes [20:50] it is labeled as windows boot manager [20:51] VAIO-USER2016: ok, try restarting [20:51] is working [20:51] thanks a lot Mr. Ericc [20:51] is there a way to edit the text of the grub? [20:52] saying just like having windows for windows instead of boot manager [20:52] the presentation of the grub [20:52] zebe: i'm pretty much out of ideas honestly, there's something you can do as a temporary fix i guess, you can use the live usb's grub to boot your ubuntu, so you'd need to always put the usb in the pc to boot it though [20:53] EriC^^, cool that ran finally after it accepted my sudo password... I had caps on :) [20:53] zebe: for some reason the uefi won't boot the ubuntu, windows or standard efi location file.. no idea maybe a setting that's different than what it uses when it boots the live usb, you could install in legacy mode btw [20:53] that's an option [20:54] Rachael__: ok, cool [20:54] EriC^^: hm, how does that work? === babilen_ is now known as babilen [20:54] VAIO-USER2016: yeah, you can add your own entry in /etc/grub.d/40_custom [20:54] thanks [20:55] zebe: installing in legacy? [20:55] Eric^^: yeah [20:56] Rachael__: try sudo mkswap -f /dev/mapper/cryptswap [20:57] zebe: you boot the live usb in legacy mode and install as usual [20:57] EriC^^, awesome ; Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 16757756 KiB [20:57] no label, UUID=5afefea2-0124-4d7c-8e8b-0bea8e24d9f5 === Joshua_Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis [20:57] zebe: you have to go to the bios and choose CSM legacy enabled first [20:58] Rachael__: ok, type sudo nano /mnt/etc/crypttab [20:58] EriC^^, http://termbin.com/d4zf [20:58] Eric^^: only legacy i see is USB legacy emulation, which is enabled...

What should i do? [21:01] EriC^^: and the HDD as well... [21:03] Rachael__: were those already there? [21:03] EriC^^, that was the content of the file yeah [21:04] zebe: i dont think the ahci would help now that it's legacy, try to install in legacy mode [21:04] hey, what is the meaning of apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [21:04] sorry [21:04] '' apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^ '' [21:04] with ^ at the tail [21:04] Rachael__: ok it looks good except for the uuid, it's different than what mkswap gave [21:04] hey folks going to give you a flash to mp4/avi code for you later! [21:05] EriC^^: trying. I did get 2 other replies for my proble. if this doesn't work i'll show them to you [21:05] EriC^^, and it matches the bottom line of the fstab [21:05] EriC^^: should I do anything related to the partitions? [21:06] Rachael__: something is incredibly wrong with the fstab [21:07] just noticed after what you said === joel_ is now known as Guest27859 [21:07] EriC^^, lol yeah I guessed that :) [21:07] Hello [21:08] Rachael__: it commented out the right 62c... and put the bdb2.... for "/" ( which is your swap ) [21:09] EriC^^, didn't we do that last night? [21:09] zebe: no, are you manually partitioning? [21:10] Eric^^: no, I'm not. I was asking if I should [21:10] Rachael__: yeah, we removed the comment before the 62c8.. one for "/" [21:10] zebe: oh, no it's ok [21:10] For this flash to mp4/avi you will need this ftom http://www.noobslab.com/2014/12/ffmpeg-returns-to-ubuntu-1410.html [21:11] zebe: just make sure that you're booted in legacy with ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi ( it should say no file found ) [21:11] EriC^^, so how does the fstab need to look? [21:12] EriC^^: well, now I'm installing. when it finishes it will ask me to reboot and then we'll see if it goes further than the loading screen. Or am I supposed to write that line in between? [21:12] zebe: no, it's ok [21:12] Here is bash script: [21:13] #!/bin/bash [21:13] for f in *.flv; do ffmpeg -i "$f" -c copy -copyts "${f%.flv}.mp4"; done [21:13] rm *.flv [21:13] EriC^^, thanks heaps for your help, how do I nominate you for a knighhood for your services for linux :) [21:13] pj__ use a pastebin fo multiple lines [21:14] Rachael__: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15029448/ [21:14] Rachael__: lol :) [21:15] Rachael__: seems ubuntu has some bugs with the 14.04 > 15.10 upgrade and i guess it's causing all this weirdness [21:15] Eric^^:God, i think it's done! [21:16] !cookie | EriC^^ [21:16] EriC^^: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [21:16] EriC^^, yeah i'e been there before, why i have this os and why i was still using 14.04 :) [21:16] EriC^^, anything else I need to do before I try rebooting? [21:17] EriC^^: another 14.04 to 15.10 upgrade¿ two in one day [21:17] Eric^^: It's working! Thanks a million! I've got only 2 more questions: what should I do if want to install ubuntu/windows again? And is there a way I can repay or support you guys? [21:18] Rachael__: if the update manager suggested to upgrade from 14.04 directly to 15.10, I suggest you to backup any important files and reinstall === famstel is now known as Uptime [21:18] Rachael__: yeah, type sudo nano /mnt/etc/crypttab and replace the uuid with 5afefea2-0124-4d7c-8e8b-0bea8e24d9f5 [21:18] i'm not sure that's the right uuid that should go there though :D [21:19] ew, nano [21:19] nano -w is much better [21:20] we could put /dev/sda5 instead of uuid= as i saw in the guides [21:21] Rachael__: try using /dev/sda5 there just for a trial [21:21] Hey MonkeyDust! Love the name! New to this way of talking never read them mans. How do you send things like code segs etc.? [21:22] pj__ http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [21:23] Rachael__: ok, found some info, says not to use the uuid of /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 , instead you should use sudo blkid /dev/sda5 [21:23] pj__ then copy/paste the url here [21:23] EriC^^, update /dev/urandom with /dev/sda5 done [21:24] I think my flash usb drive died after writing to it [21:24] EriC^^, in the crypttab file or fstab? [21:24] Like lsusb detects it but it isn't shown in /dev [21:24] Rachael__: no, i meant instead of the UUID=.... [21:24] fdisk -l doesn't show it [21:25] Here is the lsusb output: http://paste.debian.net/382018/ [21:25] Rachael__: in the crypttab file [21:25] Naughx: what tells "dmesg" after you put that in? [21:26] xangua: yes it upgraded to 15.10 and it's commenting out stuff in fstab and putting the swap as "/" etc. [21:26] EriC^^, sweet but blkid doesn't show the uuid for sda5? [21:26] Rachael__: yeah :/ [21:26] try sudo blkid /dev/sda5 [21:27] EriC^^, nothing returned [21:27] @k1l;http://paste.debian.net/382020/ [21:27] Rachael__: ok, try using /dev/sda5 without the uuid i guess [21:28] if I do "fdisk -l /dev/sdi" it says that no medium is found. [21:28] Many thanks for info. MonkeyDust have fun positive vibes dude signing out [21:28] Rachael__: do you have a lot of stuff on the install? [21:28] Naughx: is that the end of dmesg? or is there something after this messages? [21:28] it is the end [21:29] after I disconnect and reconnect [21:29] Could be something that messed up with the firmware? [21:30] can you try another usb port? and then show all the messages in dmesg again? because from this message it should be /dev/sdi [21:30] I tried another computer [21:30] not working [21:30] even the bios cannot see it [21:30] So the disk is dead, most likely. [21:31] What is the best directory with Ubuntu to install and compile any soft [21:31] ware [21:31] at least something messed up with the firmware. [21:31] (I used the usb creator) [21:31] Then it failed. [21:31] Poindexter_: The directory of your choice. [21:31] strange since it gave it a /dev/sdi on the paste you showed. but usb pendrives can die. [21:31] Poindexter_, your /home/ folder, or /opt/ if you want it to be availabel to other users. [21:31] it also shows in lsusb [21:31] zebe: sorry, just saw your message, that's awesome, about windows i think you should be able to install as usual [21:32] For security reasons and for best optimization. [21:32] I guess it is a bugged firmware or something [21:32] Poindexter_, what 'security reason' ?? [21:32] Thanks Bekks and OerHeks for the response. [21:32] zebe: just make sure you boot it also in legacy mode and after you install windows you can use a live usb to chroot and reinstall grub [21:32] Probably cannot init the flash chip? [21:33] Poindexter_: And what "best optimization"? [21:33] Nothing in particular. When we apt-get what directory does that go into? [21:33] Rachael_: wb [21:33] Poindexter_: you are mixing up things, heavily. [21:33] - [21:33] Maybe I am. :) [21:34] Naughx: all you can do is get a new usb device. [21:34] Poindexter_, in a lot of places, depends. but you mentioned compile, so that would be different unless you know what folders are meant for [21:34] Stupid proprietary firmwares. [21:34] I just don't want to put anything anywhere like using Windows system. [21:34] Yeh I guess. [21:34] Poindexter_: Dont assume people in here know how windows works or is used ;) [21:35] Poindexter_: you have your /home/user/ for your personal data, and /opt for locally accessible data for all users. [21:35] Thanks Bekks, I never thought of that. Good point. [21:35] Poindexter_: Besides that, you can create whatever directory structure you like most. [21:37] Bekks, I have spent many years with Windows OS and I have installed many PORTABLE installations. I never used anything with Ubuntu or Liinux with Portable installs. I am totally ignorant of this in this area. [21:37] I have a problem I simply cannot get around. I have a two disk raid mounted at /mnt. When i try to open a file and write to, say /mnt/foo I get an out of space error. I cant ls -l /mnt. However if I go into /mnt/subdir/ I can ls and write no problem... [21:38] Poindexter_: Your Windows reputation is irrelevant in here. And portable installs have nothing to do with what has been talked about so far. [21:38] bekks: You're being rather harsh for no reason [21:38] At least, no reason that I can see [21:38] Bekks that makes me more ignorant I suppose. :) === MrElendig is now known as FBI [21:39] Poindexter_: Check `man hier` for a description of what various folders on the filesystem are for [21:39] LambdaComplex: I'm not meant to be harsh. But this isnt the right place for pulling out the Windows reputation of someone nor the place for contectless chats. [21:39] Poindexter_, take a look at the filesystem & folder tree https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview [21:41] By the way all comments are well taken. I appreciate the input. Thanks. [21:42] Poindexter_, have fun! === Joshua_Dunamis is now known as Joshua^Dunamis [21:44] OerHeks is there a clone for Ubotu? I would like to set one up on my freenode site. [21:45] Poindexter_: you dont have a freenode site ;) [21:45] Soon. [21:45] !bot [21:45] Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi | Usage info: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins | Bot channels and general info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots | Make a clone of me: /msg ubottu botclone [21:45] Poindexter_: Do you mean "I will register my own channel"? [21:46] Bekks yes. Very soon. [21:46] Poindexter_: Which is totally different from "my own freenode site" ;) [21:47] That's is different. I am going to install a personal IRC server on my website in due order. Freenode is another thing. [21:49] I considered Mibit server but that is just like AOL service. Not a good thing. [21:49] Poindexter_: Better use a well-known IRC server, from the Ubuntu repos. [21:50] I was thinking of Bahamut Bekks. [21:50] I created an upstart job in /etc/init, but it doesn't seem to start on boot and there are no logs in /var/log/upstart. What now? [21:51] Freenode uses ircd-Seven [21:51] Poindexter_: did you compare both? [21:51] the job starts and stops just fine manually after the system boots [21:52] Synthead: Make sure the file is +x [21:52] genii: it's a .conf file, and none of the system init files are +x [21:52] I did lots of homework and I favor Bahamut but if ircd-seven works for freenode, that may just be my choice. I did install ircd-seven on a LXDE Debian server. It works OK. [21:52] does cp command really overwrite without asking for confirmation? [21:52] Poindexter_: did you compare features, documentation and support options? [21:53] truexfan81: Sure. [21:53] Synthead: Same permissions and owner as the others there, then [21:53] bekks: ok ty [21:53] genii: root:root [21:53] EriC^^: OK, thanks a lot! [21:53] Bekks, the security features are paramount. Bahamut has lots of support from Dalnet. [21:54] zebe: no problem [21:54] truexfan81: you could always use the "i" argument, for "interactive", and that will prompt you before overwriting, cp -i .... [21:54] Poindexter_: What does " the security features are paramount" mean in the context of answering my question? === daniele is now known as Guest79559 [21:55] Synthead: So when you manually do: sudo service myinitname start ... it starts? [21:56] genii: yes [21:56] genii: # start myservice [21:56] Clearly Bekks the /commands for OPERATOR and other commands that have been eliminated stops hackers and jerks from doing stupid things. I don't want to say much because here due to the fact that simple commands on IRC can be destructive. [21:57] Synthead: Sounds like it might be a runlevel issue [21:57] Poindexter_: So I am taking it right that you dont say much because you dont know much about that. :) [21:57] genii: I'm in runlevel 2 (ubuntu server), and the script has "start on runlevel [2345]" [21:57] Why would you say that Bekks? [21:57] Poindexter_: Pretty much everone on irc is quite familiar with nickserv and chanserv commands, or at least on how to get a reference of them. [21:57] genii: other jobs (like dbus) use this same line [21:58] genii: well not dbus, but you get the idea [21:58] genii: cron.conf uses this line and cron starts on boot [21:59] whose quote is everyone has arrogance as much as he lacks intelligence? [21:59] Synthead: What does it have for "start on" [21:59] ^ [21:59] genii: I'm in runlevel 2 (ubuntu server), and the script has "start on runlevel [2345]" [22:00] genii: I should mention that I added "> /tmp/blah" to my exec string and the file doesn't exist when the system boots [22:02] Synthead: Do you have full path to the whatever it's supposed to be doing on the exec line? [22:02] genii: yes [22:02] genii: and it runs if I run it manually, just not when the system boots [22:04] Synthead: Perhaps if you pastebin the init script for examination, something may pop out [22:04] genii: looks like there's something in dmesg about it [22:05] Krastavac nice point. Check this website: http://thoughtcatalog.com/kovie-biakolo/2013/11/10-reasons-being-intelligent-is-difficult/ [22:06] genii: looks like it's something to do with networking, so I should be able to add it to start on [22:06] hey if you go to gentoo linux or arch..and start saying humiliating things about their distro...they just laugh and dont ban you... [22:07] because they KNOW YOU ARE WRONG [22:07] and you are full of it [22:07] eb0t: how so? [22:07] but in here if you say one wrong word [22:07] ban [22:07] ha ah [22:07] everyone gets upset [22:08] nice, is this nietsche quote? [22:08] genii: yep, that was it :) [22:08] genii: I used start on (started networking and runlevel [2345]) instead [22:21] hey [22:23] can anyone help me out with this command please, am i missing some quotes somewhere, it keep creating a directory called smb-share:server=tageserver, but i want it to create the AC directory it is copying rsync -r -t -p -o -g -v --progress -s /run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=tageserver,share=ac /tage_data === venkat_331 is now known as venkat_330 [22:24] Kallis "smb-share\:server\=blah" [22:25] Kallis the \ before the : and the = [22:25] ok lemme try MonkeyDust [22:25] I know this is not the right place but does anyone know if there is a raspberry pi irc channel?

[22:40] EriC^^, hi there back now :) [22:41] ok following that command that coopies the entirety of the ac directory to the tage_data directory but does not put it into an ac folder [22:41] Rachael_: hi, wb :) [22:41] Rachael_: did you remove UUID=.... and put /dev/sda5 ? [22:42] Kallis: so change the last part to `/tage_data/ac/`? [22:42] unless i'm misunderstanding [22:43] EriC^^, ahh no, I removed the bit after the UUID and entered /dev/sda5 [22:43] LambdaComplex: I'm not saying I have a problem with it. I think DRM on game titles is so excessive in many cases it makes the product unusable. [22:43] yup that got it cheers dude, been driving me mad for the last hour and a half [22:43] i think i'd just been staring at it too long [22:44] EriC^^, so crypttab should read cryptswap1 /dev/sda5 /dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 [22:44] Rachael_: yup [22:45] EriC^^, sweet have that [22:46] Interessante, o primeiro acesso trás para esse canal [22:46] portuguese [22:46] issssooo [22:46] :) [22:47] I thought it was Italian [22:47] e você ?

I'm looking for a tool to create xml files to conform with a xsd schema. It seems that after 2005 people stopped creating programs that create entry forms from xsd files. I'm having a hard time believing this despite hours of googling. So does anyone know of a program that is stilll somewhat maintained that does this? [23:00] rootri: you mean a usb adapter¿ [23:00] Nope card [23:02] My 7260 is garbage [23:05] is it for a laptop ?

[23:19] I am using filezilla to upload files and folders into the html directory [23:19] Belgium Kallis [23:19] bekks: an admin user with sudo privileges [23:19] easyOnMe: put your user into the www-data group [23:20] easyOnMe: the "admin" part is irrelevant. the sudo part is irrelevant. Which user are you using? [23:20] you guys have wireless channels 13 and 14 there yeah ? make sure you don't get a US card or it won't support them [23:20] EriC^^, ah i might have mounted the wrong drive :), how do I unmount /mnt? [23:20] bekks: the admin user is part of the sudo group [23:20] easyOnMe: It is irrelevant at this point.

[23:21] it says there never to use the root user in case accidental error happens [23:21] EriC^^, duh [23:21] easyOnMe: i hope you dont use root/sudo login for ftp. use a user and put that user into the www-data group. then he can add stuff there [23:22] EriC^^, /mnt: device is busy.

[23:34] EriC^^, http://termbin.com/9pv0 [23:34] Rachael_: yeah [23:36] Rachael_: cat /mnt/etc/crypttab | pasteit [23:36] think you used nano earlier, it turned out pretty pikasso'ish [23:37] haha [23:37] :) === seedo_ is now known as riverloop [23:37] EriC^^, lol doh [23:37] If you have a bunch of windows of the same application e.g. terminal and you're tabbing amongst them, is it possible to enlarge them while tabbing to see which each terminal is like in windows, or do you have to pray to the rng gods? [23:37] EriC^^, http://termbin.com/3h3x [23:38] EriC^^, i'm going to develop a twitch when anyone mentions cryptswap in future :) [23:38] Rachael_: hehe [23:38] Rachael_: ok, i think this is a bug thingie where it keeps making new ones [23:38] EriC^^, edit out those bottom 2 lines? [23:39] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ecryptfs-utils/+bug/953875 [23:39] Launchpad bug 953875 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Trusty) "Encrypted swap no longer mounted at bootup" [High,Triaged] [23:39] jmcxn_: that's gonna depend on the desktop environment [23:40] EriC^^, it may have been when i tried this twice? [23:40] jmcxn_: i know there's a plugin(i think that's the word) for cinnamon that gives windows-like previews when you alt-tab [23:40] jmcxn_: and i think kde has a similar feature? less sure about that one [23:40] Rachael_: oh, it actually has the offset=1024 there, that was the fix in the link [23:41] Rachael_: ok, try removing the first 2 from crypttab === rootri2 is now known as rootri [23:42] EriC^^, sweet, but don't think I have a /dev/urandom? [23:42] shit i just found this via reddit thread Kallis http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01797CNA6 [23:43] Rachael_: you should [23:43] Rachael_: you definitely should [23:43] EriC^^, cool, now reboot? [23:43] what's the difference between urandom and random? [23:44] Rachael_: what're you going to do with /dev/urandom? [23:44] LambdaComplex: why did you have to ask :p [23:44] something to do with entropy i guess [23:44] urandom doesn't wait for the entropy pool to fill, or something like that [23:44] artois: because i can't remember the difference [23:44] LambdaComplex: Looks like it'll change my whole UI, but maybe I can configure it for just tabs. Thanks! [23:44] rootri: sucks for you [23:44] jmcxn_: What is "it" in that sentence? [23:44] LambdaComplex: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Random_number_generation#.2Fdev.2Furandom [23:44] artois uwot [23:44] Hi I am on Ubuntu 14.04 trusty and I want to download emacs. I used apt-get and ended up installing emacs24.3. On http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/emacs24 I can see that the wily release has emacs 24.5 packaged. How can I upgrade my emacs so it uses the latest version? Can I add the wiley ppa or something? [23:44] rootri: 'xactly [23:45] wat [23:45] Rachael_: not yet, try sudo mkswap -U c5686baf-4a9a-45a6-94ae-9aae8a1e8d1d /dev/sda5 [23:45] vik_: it's unlikely you will be missing anything [23:45] LambdaComplex: Cinnamon, sorry [23:45] jmcxn_: What DE are you using now? [23:45] artois: certain packages do not work with emacs 24.3 [23:45] Magit for example [23:45] is it some kind of joke im not getting lol [23:46] jmcxn_: Changing your desktop environment just to change your alt-tab behavior is pretty....outrageous [23:46] EriC^^, cool, ran that for sdb5 [23:47] EriC^^, thankx again for your time on this [23:47] Something kinda like buying a new car because you don't like your floormats or something [23:47] LambdaComplex: 14.04, would rather not change it all but not being able to read the mini terminals when tabbing is getting pretty annoying :/ [23:47] Rachael_: they switched? [23:47] wouldn't changing the wm suffice for changing the alt+tab behavior? [23:47] jmcxn_: 14.04 is a version of Ubuntu, not a desktop environment [23:47] tsp`_: Yeah, probably, but most DEs don't play very well with getting their wm replaced [23:48] Oh, unity [23:48] EriC^^, sda only goes to 3 on my machine [23:48] o_O I've never had such problems happen [23:48] Well in that case I'd install Cinnamon just because I dislike Unity so much :P [23:48] vik_: you can _try_ downloading the .deb and hoping it will 'just work' with dpkg -i [23:48] EriC^^, ... shit or it does now? [23:49] Rachael_: yeah, it was sda5 before [23:49] jmcxn_: Try googling something like "unity alt tab behavior" I guess [23:49] EriC^^, strange things afoot at the circle k [23:49] Rachael_: it's fine i guess *shrug* [23:49] yeah [23:50] Rachael_: try rebooting, see what happens [23:50] EriC^^, makes sense that's why the mont i ran from history earlier failed [23:50] oh, yeah [23:50] artois: I will try and let you know how it goes. thanks [23:50] EriC^^, wonderful, thnkx again! [23:51] Yeah, I hate unity too, but I've grown to accept it/have stopped a lot of its functionality [23:51] Rachael_: no problem [23:51] EriC^^, oh yeah what about the fstab [23:52] it should be good, i think [23:52] EriC^^, http://termbin.com/pw7j [23:53] Rachael_: try removing the extra cryptswap [23:53] hi, is it possible to make simple scan work with an OCR automatically? [23:53] btw if it fails miserably, you could try adding noauto after sw and mount the swap ... just realized you showed me the link :) [23:54] but yeah, that's an option [23:54] MrKeuner: undoubtedly [23:54] MrKeuner: what're you using, xsane? [23:54] EriC^^, sweet but should the UUID match the one in crypttab http://termbin.com/zg67 ? [23:54] hiya, what does cp command do? [23:54] artois, I thought the name was "simple scan" [23:54] Rachael_: no, that's just for "/" [23:55] artois, let me check the name [23:55] EriC^^, sweet, noauto after the sw [23:55] artois, "Simple Scan" [23:55] spacecub: cp == copy . In terminal do ' man cp ' for full disclosure . [23:56] MrKeuner: did you have an ocr app in mind? [23:57] thankyou Bashing, seems obvious now :) [23:57] MrKeuner: I think the simplest way to do that might be to use inotifyd to ocr any new files in a given specific directory [23:57] or it'd be quite easy if you could use simple-scan via commandline, too [23:57] EriC^^, cool, here we go again! [23:57] hi guys , quick one , anyone know of any open source online code snippet / tech documentation repository [23:58] ok! [23:58] like something like gist but searchable [23:58] spacecub: :) Hang in here , soon it will start making more sense . [23:58] apt-get source ? [23:58] j/k but it's pretty useful i guess [23:59] ls [23:59] artois, a pdf can be OCRred and save as another pdf? [23:59] oops, wrong window.. [23:59] MrKeuner: yup [23:59] artois, is it tesseract that does that or with some other tool combined?
