[00:16] I need to install ffmpeg as a dependency but I'm not sure about libffmpeg [00:16] home: Ubuntu [00:16] Sovereignentity: about what? [00:16] home: this is the technical support channel for ubuntu [00:16] oh wow cool [00:17] if that will satisfy the dependencies [00:17] Sovereignentity: 'libav'? [00:17] Sovereignentity: for the most part libav and ffmpeg are interchangeable [00:17] libffmpeg [00:17] Sovereignentity: if you have a choice, though, go with ffmpeg, as it will last longer [00:17] Sovereignentity: what ubuntu exactly? [00:17] Sovereignentity: there is no libffmpeg, there's libavcodec, which both ffmpeg and libav provide [00:18] all the information you need, I just typed out :) [00:18] does anyone know how to slow down visualboy advance? [00:19] dillon: is that some kind of gameboy emulator? [00:19] reisio, I dont find just ffmpeg in the software center or synaptic pm [00:19] Sovereignentity: yes you do [00:20] Sovereignentity: might be in 'universe' repo at this point [00:20] Sovereignentity: what ubuntu are you on exactly? [00:20] dillon: you might want to check the frameskip option [00:20] mate 14.04 [00:20] Sovereignentity: you now libav and ffmpeg is the same codebase but was forked due to drama with developers? [00:21] Sovereignentity: mint? [00:21] ubuntu mate 14.04 [00:21] Sovereignentity: it's possible 14.04 only has libav easily available [00:21] as I said, they're largely interchangeable [00:21] Sovereignentity: so install libav-tools [00:22] mattbv yes [00:22] there was a moment there where all the Debian devs went a little kookoo and switched from ffmpeg to libav, thankfully that moment has passed [00:22] it might have coincided with Ubuntu 14.04 [00:22] dillon: did it worked? changing the frame skip? [00:23] no frame skip is zero and throttle is no throttle [00:23] kll got it thanks [00:25] mattbv no frame skip is zero and throttle is set to no throttle [00:26] dillon: Sounds like you system is too good (if that can be counted as a problem). I think the emulator tries to use the cpu as much as possible. Can you tell me how many fps are you getting? [00:28] mattbv not a clue lol, but the computer is really old. It is a toshiba satellite L505D-S5983 [00:28] only thing different is it has a silicon power ssd [00:29] dillon: Slso, there should be some sort of frame rate cap to chose in the settings. Well, yeah, to run an gba emulator that's way more power than required [00:31] i did not see one, the frame rate is between (at factory setting) 775%-1200% [00:39] mattbv I didn't see one and the frame rate at out of box settings is 775%-1000% [00:44] any software/app i can use as a hotspot for my wireless devices ?? [00:45] !info hostap [00:45] Package hostap does not exist in wily [00:45] Hm === james is now known as Guest70611 [00:45] networkmanager can do that [00:46] it's, what, hostapd?

[00:57] Hello [00:58] opeik wazzzuuuup [00:58] I have a small problem: my desktop running Ubuntu 15.10 froze upon resume from suspend. I restarted the damn thing and instead of being greeted by the login screen, I get a black screen. [00:58] I can't even get to a TTY [00:59] opeik: Does ctrl+alt+F1 have any effect? [00:59] No [00:59] I can't get to any TTYs [00:59] It just stays black [00:59] boot into a rescue disk [00:59] opeik: im guessing you installed the bad unity 8 package [00:59] Everything is stock [00:59] Latest NVIDIA drivers, too [01:00] In an act of desperation I reinstalled and I had the same problems [01:00] opeik: Boot from your USB again, and use the terminal on that. [01:00] abetterfish, I can use rescue mode from GRUB, will that suffice? [01:00] You can drop into a root shell from there [01:01] opeik: Yes, I don't know what you can do, except reinstall nvidia drivers [01:01] I have tried that many a time friend [01:01] I found stuff in the Xorg logs though [01:01] Hold on let me get it [01:01] opeik do a inxi -NAG and post it somewhere for us [01:02] Sure thing [01:02] What's the command that uploads a text file to a pastebin site from the terminal? [01:02] wget-paste or something? [01:02] opeik: pastebinit [01:02] then do a " inxi -NAG | pastebinit [01:04] Oh and to be clear the free drivers work fine [01:04] But I'm not too keen on getting the same performance as my integrated card, lol [01:04] Jordan_U: i get access point is not supported by this device === PDXLabCoat_ is now known as PDXLabCoat [01:04] if they work fine what is the hassle ? [01:04] I will try this in windows [01:05] Performance [01:05] I didn't buy a dedicated graphics card to not use it [01:05] you sure the performance suffers opeik? [01:05] Yes [01:05] did you test the darn thing? [01:05] Yes [01:05] ok [01:05] did you do the inxi -G thing? [01:05] Got a root shell now, hold up [01:06] Hey all, how do I check what version of GCC and Clang I'm using? [01:07] http://paste.ubuntu.com/15184681/ [01:07] Intee, the --version flag? [01:08] ok opeik ... since you have your noveau driver active and the nvidia driver unloaded you wil NOT be able to use the proprietory driver [01:08] Here's my Xorg.0.log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15184690/ [01:08] opeik, thanks. I did that before and it did work but.. [01:08] CoolRabbit, Is that so [01:08] I'm getting 'configure: No compiler with C++11 support was found' when trying to install znc.. [01:09] I'm using the correct version according to --version on GCC and Clang [01:09] From what ZNC documentation tells me anyway [01:09] opeik ... yes ... one blocks the other [01:09] Alright then, do you have any idea why that happened? [01:09] I mean it was working fine 15 hours ago [01:10] no ideas ... any upgrades? [01:10] Not from memory [01:10] But take a loot at the Xorg log [01:10] I think the NVIDIA X server fails to start [01:11] opeik I see it ... but the inxi command show you are loading noveau and blocking nvidia [01:11] Hmm [01:11] So what, do I blacklist noveau? [01:12] try it ... it can't hurt [01:12] did you do a search for aditional drivers opeik [01:12] ? [01:13] Yep, I installed the NVIDIA drivers from the settings menu [01:13] are they still in use? [01:13] I can't get to unity unless I purge nvidia-* and noveau is used though [01:14] Well they should be in use [01:14] If I uninstall the nvidia packages I get unity again [01:14] they don't seem to be ... the inxi command again shows [01:14] they are NOT being used [01:14] I'll blacklist the module real quick [01:14] This is really odd [01:15] I'll wait [01:15] hola [01:16] hola ! [01:21] hello, how can unpack-edit-modify .abs firmware file? any idea? [01:21] Alright I added http://paste.ubuntu.com/15184757/ to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf [01:21] Aaaaaand black screen [01:22] opeik ... I'm here [01:22] opeik: Try adding "nomodeset" as a kernel parameter. [01:22] wait a sec [01:22] Jordan_U, he has a wrking box with noveau [01:22] opeik [01:22] CoolRabbit: But he wants nvidia's proprietary drivers. [01:22] Jordan_U, yep [01:23] Jordan_U, Alrighty [01:23] how do i add a program to open files with, example, using blender's bz2 download of blender - make ubuntu open blend files with blender when i double click [01:24] opeik: To be clear, "nomodeset" disables all Free drivers, including nouveau. All proprietary drivers (except possibly AMDGPU) require kernel mode setting to be disabled from boot (it requires a reboot to disable KMS once started). [01:24] opeik, uninstall every nvidia package and go to the Aditional Drivers app to install them [01:24] Just to be clear, I get text while it's booting [01:24] Then for a brief second I get the usual linux login screen [01:24] You know, on a TTY [01:25] Then it goes black [01:25] opeik: I agree with CoolRabbit though that if you haven't been using Additional Drivers to install and enable the Nvidia drivers then that should be the first thing you try. [01:25] I've already done that though [01:25] do it again ... [01:25] i tried using right click, open with other program, its not on the list, how do i add blender to the list? [01:25] Alrighty [01:25] it wont hurt [01:25] same with properties [01:26] but you have to have all the nvidia packages uninstalled ... [01:26] that is the ones you installed yourself [01:27] Alright purging nvidia-* as we speak [01:27] Give it a moment [01:28] Jordan_U, how to restore factory setting on the Xserver? [01:30] Alright I had to reboot and comment out the blacklisting because I had a tiny resolution [01:30] ok ... do an inxi -G now [01:30] CoolRabbit: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf-bak #Assuming that there is an xorg.conf now at all. [01:31] what are you guys doing on the computer today. [01:31] CoolRabbit, http://paste.ubuntu.com/15184811/ [01:31] Jordan_U, when there is a xorg.cong file yes ... but when it isn't ? [01:32] opeik ... at least now your nvidia is NOT unloaded ... [01:32] what are you guys doing on the computer today. [01:32] Alrighty, I'm installing NVIDIA 352.63 from the menu now [01:32] !ot | tinyalpha [01:32] tinyalpha: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [01:32] yeah! GO FOR IT !!! [01:32] could someone please help me set up my HP Photosmart c7200 all-in-one printer? I have been trying with NO luck at all. [01:33] what up dude [01:33] bunjee, I have something like that, it should "just work" [01:33] tinyalpha ... it was a bot [01:33] ahh [01:33] zelozelos, have you tried, highlight file, right click, properties, open with -> migrate to /usr/bin and look for the program you want to open a file with -> set as default [01:33] opeik, it does not... [01:34] bunjee ... did you try installing via Printers > Add ? [01:34] tinyalpha: please keep this channel free for technical support. [01:34] It's a Network printer [01:34] alright i'll move on to another channel you all take care for now [01:34] yes.I've spent counl [01:34] countless hours trying [01:34] squinty, it dosent have open with, just a list and find file, which searches packages [01:35] bunjee do you know your printer's IP? [01:35] CoolRabbit, Reboot, get a few kernel messages as usual, TTY login screen briefly and black screen again [01:35] bunjee: What happens when you try to add the printer? [01:36] I know it's hooked to the Network.... [01:36] opeik you are trying to irritate me !!! LOL ;) [01:36] Sorry dude [01:36] I spent a few hours yesterday trying to solve this myself [01:36] I've lost track of how many reboots I've done [01:36] nothing......just reads - printer not responding [01:36] opeik the card is in good order in Windows? [01:37] I'm not sure, I don't use Windows [01:37] bunjee: Does the printer add successfully and then have problems printing, or does it not even add successfully? [01:37] ... you got this card how? It is kind of old? [01:37] CoolRabbit - yes - I've entered it several times [01:37] Well I had a Radeon 6670 from ages ago, and a friend of mine gave me his old 570 ti [01:37] It runs a lot better [01:38] Jordan_U.......does not add at all [01:38] I've had my fair share of stupid issues with the AMD card [01:38] bunjee: OK, is it listed when you search for network printers to add? [01:38] But this is something else [01:38] Sorry, I'm trying to configure ZNC and when I run ./configure it comes up saying I'm not using the right versions of GCC or Clang. I checked them both and tried to install GCC-4.7 but it says it's already installed. When I run GCC --version it says it's using 4.6.1.. How do I make it use 4.7+? [01:38] yes [01:39] Intee: Why are you trying to compile ZNC? [01:39] lmao [01:39] Jordan_U - I can add the HP but it does not print a test page [01:39] That is a good question, why are you trying to compile something on a binary distro [01:39] !info znc | Intee [01:39] Intee: znc (source: znc): advanced modular IRC bouncer. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6.1-1 (wily), package size 1380 kB, installed size 4943 kB [01:39] how do i make a file association to a program that is not in the right click menu "open with other application" or properties/open with? [01:40] bunjee: You do realize that you earlier said that it doesn't add at all, correct? [01:40] Jordan_U, I tried apt-get install znc but didn't work and tried finding the ppa(?) for it but couldn't. [01:40] yes.sorry [01:41] Intee: What about it "didn't work"? Why do you expect compiling from source to work better? [01:41] Jordan_U - I can add the printer, but not print a test page [01:41] Jordan_U, because im a nub. After I did some google-fu work someone said to follow this: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-znc-an-irc-bouncer-on-an-ubuntu-vps [01:41] opeik give me again your xorg.conf [01:41] I never gave you my xorg.conf, but sure! [01:42] Hold on gotta drop into a root shell again [01:42] Intee, apt-get install znc [01:43] bunjee: What brand? [01:43] HP [01:43] CoolRabbit, Apparently I don't have an xorg.conf [01:44] It's in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, right? [01:44] So, if you try to print a page by typing in the terminal window, what errors do you get? [01:44] opeik ... yes ... but that is not as bad as it seems [01:44] Run nvidia-xconfig? [01:45] bunjee: I'm not sure if this works, but try to follow this page: http://www.eecs.utk.edu/resources/it/kb/printing/linux-command-line [01:46] zelozelos, probably need to unpack the file first. right click on file name -> select |Archive Manager (aka file-roller) and proceed from there [01:46] opeik: Be aware that the use of the xorg.conf file is depreciated . DKMS does the heavy work now-a-days . If there though, will be used . [01:47] Bashing-om, Yeah that's what I thought [01:47] Umeaboy: I've got the HP added, but there is a blue circle with an i in the middle over the HP icon === erick is now known as Guest54076 [01:47] squinty, it is already working, running whatever, i just want to double click on .blend files and ubuntu will know to open the with blender [01:47] bunjee: What version of CUPS and hplip? === Guest59678 is now known as drbrownbear [01:48] zelozelos, right click on .blend, properties, "open with" blender [01:48] opeik try this ... my last try with you before bedtime here ... http://askubuntu.com/questions/47506/how-do-i-install-additional-drivers [01:48] have fun and keep at it !!! [01:49] Rip [01:49] Reinstall the hole damn thing if need be !!! [01:49] zelozelos, hmmm...then the method I described earlier should be the method to obtain the results you want. don't use blender myself so maybe someone else will chime in [01:49] it is not on the list cfhowlett and i dont know how to add it, find it will get the program in the repo, i dont want that, i have the latest version, not in the repo's [01:49] I already did though lmao [01:49] I nuked my dekstop last night === drbrownbear is now known as DrBrownBear [01:49] Umeaboy: I printed from another PC and got hpcups 3.12.6 - I don't know how to get the hplip version [01:50] properties, has an add button, and it seems to copy whatever i have selected it does not open a broswer so i can navigate to the program of desire [01:50] opeik see if the damn card works anywhere !!! [01:50] maybe you have a dead one!! [01:50] bye all ! [01:51] Bye bye [01:51] So does anyone else have any ideas [01:52] opeik: I just joined, what is the issue ? I have a bit of knowledge of Nvidia . [01:52] Alright so get this [01:52] bunjee: http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install_wizard/index.html [01:52] I was using my frankenDELL last night [01:53] Put it to sleep, and wake it up [01:53] bunjee: http://hplipopensource.com/node/204 [01:53] Black screen with a cursor, frozen [01:53] So I'm like cool, year of the linux desktop and restart [01:53] When I restarted I get the linux TTY login briefly before it switches to a fully black screen [01:54] I can't get to any TTYs via ctrl-alt-F* [01:54] I wiped the disk and reinstalled too [01:54] opeik, mine does that too, i just keep restarting, it works out after a couple [01:54] Mate I've restarted the damn thing more times than I can count [01:55] The only lead that I have is in the Xorg.0.log [01:55] opeik: What release ? and can you boot to terminal from the grub boot menu ? [01:55] Ubuntu 15.10, and yes I can drop into a root shell via grub [01:56] The only way anything works is if I apt-get purge nvidia-* [01:56] opeik: What graphics card is this? [01:56] opeik: Post that Xorg file to a pastebin for me .. let's see what X had to say . [01:56] Umeaboy, NVIDIA 570 [01:57] GeForce GTX 570 ? [01:57] Yes friend [01:57] OK. [01:57] Bashing-om, http://paste.ubuntu.com/15184690/ [01:57] There is some obscure error in the logs [01:58] opeik: reading . [01:58] Bashing-om, Line 151 [01:58] The driver has a stroke then unloads all the kernel modules [01:59] I looked up the error and their official documentation was pretty much "lol make sure it's plugged in correctly" [02:00] In the off chance that it was actually loose or something, why are the free drivers working [02:01] opeik: So, the issue is that your display goes black after choosing which kernel to boot? === learnit_ is now known as learnit [02:01] I only get the option to pick a kernel if I use gru [02:01] grub* [02:01] Umeaboy: I'm loading the file n ow - hope it works... [02:02] I had this issue on my GeForce GTX 850M and I managed to solve it for 3.19 and 4.15. [02:02] opeik: Yepper; UnGood . OK, in what ways have you tried to install the graphic's driver ? [02:02] Regardless, I get a few kernel messages while booting as normal, the standard linux TTY login comes up briefly which is replaced by a black screen [02:02] It looks like a udev issue. [02:03] Bashing-om, The standard additional drivers tool in Ubuntu [02:03] I've done nothing crazy here [02:03] I just want to damn thing to work [02:03] bunjee: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand? [02:03] * Umeaboy keeps his thumbs up [02:04] Umeaboy: not just yet.........it's not even loaded half way........ [02:05] opeik: Well, let's see what happens when we purge the driver and re-install from terminal . verify the hardware is seen ' sudo ubuntu-drivers devices ' What returns ? [02:05] Bashing-om, Give me one sec, I have to attend to something [02:06] ope [02:06] K at your pace . [02:06] Umeaboy: should i restart the system when it is finished loading/ [02:06] OK. [02:06] ?? [02:06] bunjee: IDK. [02:07] Not an expert. [02:07] Hi [02:07] Just giving suggestion found when googleing. [02:07] Umeaboy: me either... [02:09] Alrighty back [02:10] opeik: ' sudo ubuntu-drivers devices ' ?? [02:11] bunjee: How far have you come now? [02:11] Bashing-om, http://paste.ubuntu.com/15184978/ [02:13] Umeaboy: it didn'twork.........I'm loading it again...... [02:13] bunjee: What error do you get? [02:13] Bashing-om, Orders captain? [02:14] Umeaboy: I will let you know when it's done loading exactly what it reads............... [02:14] opeik: K, so far so good ( I was hoping to see 361 in that list ) .. let's run ' sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia* ; sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' reboot and let's see what happens . [02:15] Bashing-om, Oh not sure if I already mentioned it, but the only way I can get a shell is via grub rescue mode === learnit_ is now known as learnit [02:17] Oh and I thought the 360 versions were only in the edgers PPA [02:17] opeik: There you have me at a disafvantage, the only sure way O know to get a terminalk with networking is booting up with grub boot paramaters. Now in 14.04 one can activate networking in a couple of ways, but this is not 14.04. .. in the 15.10 recovery consile dow you have " eneable networking" selection ? [02:18] There is a "Enable networking" option in the grub rescue menu [02:18] It will mount the drive and get everything setup [02:18] Also I ran those commands and restarted, same thing [02:19] opeik: Great, should workie ... when set up run ' ping -c3 ubuntu.com ' to make sure we have networking functional . [02:20] Alright let me hit up a root shell again [02:20] opeik: " Also I ran those commands and restarted, same thing" -> any errors back in terminal ? [02:20] No [02:20] I'll try again just to be certain [02:21] opeik: Xorg file still saying it can not talk to the card ? [02:21] i came back to tell you i found what i needed so you may know for next time [02:23] what i needed was mimeopen -d filename.ext, option other, command was give program name and location, it opened the file in blender , now when i double click on any .blend file, it opens blender [02:23] bunjee: Good. If I'm away or not in, you can just send me a memo by typing /msg memoserv send Umeaboy....................................... [02:24] The dots represent your message. [02:24] Bashing-om, Alright, it installed nvidia-352 [02:24] And yes, the network connection works [02:24] No errors [02:25] And here is /var/log/Xorg.0.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/15185029/ [02:27] damn iti have this old vesion of spotify i cant get rid of [02:27] django: sudo apt-get purge spotify [02:28] Here is the last 1000 lines from /var/log/syslog if it helps http://paste.ubuntu.com/15185039/ [02:28] HEllo people, can somebody help me ressizing my Micro SD?

It works, but I need it to do something else. wlan goes to eth, which is a basic belkin router, broadcasts its own connection, devices go through and to the world through wlan [02:50] but none of the devices connecting to the router (eth) are seeing the computer with wlan on the network [02:50] i know they're on seperate networks, but since the computers generating the internet, wouldn't it be on the same network? [02:51] opeik: Re-seat the card ; yeah . Are you certain that the install meduim is valid ? Did you check the .iso and the copy to disk ? [02:51] bunjee: http://www.openprinting.org/printer/HP/HP-PhotoSmart_C7200 suggests you want the 990c support, heh [02:52] Bashing-om, Since Ubuntu is quality, enterprise grade tested software, the "Startup Disk Creator" tool is broken on 15.10 [02:52] I just dd'd the iso onto a usb [02:53] dd works the best for me, started using it on chromeos, haven't needed unetbootin or anything else [02:53] reisio: I will check it out...............got a fire call c ya......... [02:53] Also from my experience, any of the bootable USB tools on Linux don't work [02:53] On my desktop, that is [02:53] Rufus on windows works, and so does dd [02:53] opeik: Boot to the boot options screen on the USB, what results with " check disk for defects " ? dd is the prefered way to make the liveUSB . [02:54] Nothing else lmao [02:54] * reisio was talking to a fireman [02:54] Bashing-om, Alrighty one sec [02:55] i have an almost full root drive and now when i start something in virtual box, it gives this error. what do i do now?

[03:06] Alright I reseated the card [03:06] Duality: anything to do with suspend/sleep/power/acpi/apm/hibernation [03:07] Duality: you might start, though, by simply trying the alternative options you aren't currently using in your power manager prefs [03:07] opeik: And ?? display works ? [03:07] Well uhh [03:07] I can't see anything now [03:08] opeik: open your eyelids [03:08] reisio, Instructions not clear, computer on fire [03:09] But fo real, nothing [03:09] Not even the BIOS booting screen [03:09] opeik: Maybe just a maybe, pull that card and gently take a pencil eraser to the contacts ?

[03:12] Oh wait there we go [03:12] It's decided to give me video now [03:13] OK let's see if that did anything for Ubuntu [03:13] Oh hey it works [03:13] Excuse me, I need to find a pillow to scream into [03:14] opeik: Venting emotion can be a good thing .

I should add that this version is recomended for my sw. 3rd party = official developer. After getting not functional updates someone suggested to disable 3rd party reositories and run sudo apt-get install -f. I did. My result is this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15185339/ Can someone suggest what to do next? My servers are running on mono. [03:46] wolfcz: looks like you're having conflicts with the 3rd party packages still [03:46] Ben64 please, could you navigate me some way how to fix it?

[03:52] Ubuntu_User: when does it say it, how did you install wine, what are you doing, what version of ubuntu [03:52] i just got a message saying my boot partition is almost full, and I see that i have a few old initrd.img-4.2.0-16-generic files, can I safely delete these? [03:53] xeno_: use the package manager to remove things, don't do it yourself [03:53] how do I know what packages to remove to free up space in the boot partition? [03:54] Well, someone who uses the same version of mono? [03:54] xeno_: "safely" is with 'sudo apt-get autoremove ' . [03:54] that worked, thank you [03:55] xeno_: :) [03:56] It Says It When I Try TO Lauch A Program With Wine, I Used Terminal To Install It, I am Trying To Launch A Steam Game, The Version Of Ubuntu Is MATE 15.10. [03:57] xeno_: Be aware. have to catch things in time, if partition gets full, then the package manager does not have the operating head room . [03:57] Ubuntu_User: how exactly did you install wine, what program, and is steam running in wine? [04:00] Bashing-om: Yes, I saw the partition fill to almost 100% before dropping to 50% caught it at just the right time, thanks again [04:00] No Steam Is Not Running In Wine. I Used My Flash drive to transfer the steam game files from my windows pc. I Did in The Terminal : "sudo apt-get wine1.6 [04:01] Or Some command that looks similar. [04:02] The exact command is sudo apt-get install wine1.6 [04:02] Ben64? [04:02] for btrfs how can I create a snapshot of / without it being seen as a subvolume of / ? [04:02] Ubuntu_User: you can't run a steam game without steam running [04:03] hehnope: /msg alis list *btrfs* [04:03] You Can Actually locate the main game file you know. [04:03] huh? [04:03] you could always not use btrfs' built in utilities, although I imagine that would be a waste [04:03] hehnope: I'd ask the output of /msg alis list *btrfs* [04:03] Hi folks. I just ran yum upgrade on a server with little more than nginx. The contents of my web directory were replaced with the default. What happened, and how can I prevent it from ever happening again? [04:04] Ubuntu_User: yep, but it doesn't work without steam [04:04] I'm asking here because it seems like more of a yum/ubuntu thing than an nginx thing [04:04] If I do btrfs subvolume snapshot -r / /@snapshot-$(date +%s), then ls / I can see the snapshot. Basically I don't want it to appear there. [04:04] jbr: yum has 0 to do with Ubuntu [04:04] jbr: use your head [04:04] jbr: you might want to check in the channel for your distro === mappinista1 is now known as mappinista [04:05] hehnope: I'd ask the output of /msg alis list *btrfs* [04:05] reisio: I ran the yum command on an installation of Ubuntu. It seems like it has *something* to do with it. [04:05] jbr: it doesn't [04:05] if nothing else, I assume the package came from official ubuntu repositories. [04:06] probably only to unpack rpms or the like from red hat [04:06] at very least, help me troubleshoot that instead of insulting me. [04:06] I'd have to insult you first [04:06] jbr: what'd you run, exactly? [04:06] Ben64: Isn't Ubuntu my distro? [04:07] jbr: cat /etc/*issue* /etc/*release* [04:07] yum update; yum upgrade [04:07] not if you're installing packages with yum [04:07] Holy crap you're right [04:07] * jbr bows [04:07] :p [04:07] Too many hours on CentOS [04:07] apt-get update; apt-get upgrade [04:07] any number of hours would be [04:07] geez. [04:08] Soon to be former client runs WHM/Cpanel server. CentOS is the most palatable option that's fully supported. [04:08] sounds like maybe your nginx config was replaced with the default [04:08] likely all your data remains where it was [04:08] reisio: it was. But how/why [04:08] whether you know where that is is another matter [04:08] good question [04:09] I think I used the default webroot, so it's not in another path [04:09] it was there when I booted the server, then logged into shell and did the upgrade/update [04:09] likely still there, then [04:09] er viceversa [04:09] maybe it only added the default index.html [04:09] and that's earlier in precedence [04:10] on a fresh install of 15.10, aptitude isn't showing long descriptions of packages, even though using "apt-cache show" does show these, any idea how I should fix this? [04:11] Hmm. I'm not sure if the image was hosted elsewhere. So index.html was overwritten. How do I prevent that? [04:11] (in the future) [04:11] Part of the problem, besides my distro confusion, is that I haven't touched this particular server in a year. === MotoMac_ is now known as raspberry [04:12] jbr: well, it should really never happen [04:12] jbr: but the ultimate answer to such questions is always: keep backups [04:13] meh it was a 1 page site and not mine. :) [04:13] I'm afraid I'm not familiar enough with Debian to give you your answer [04:13] someone else will be [04:13] I'm less worried about losing that page than preventing it from recurring [04:13] was the page online? [04:13] if so, google and/or archive.org probably have a copy [04:13] as to recurring: see preceding about backups [04:13] I'm trying to migrate to nginx from apache eventually and this sort of behavior doesn't help me win favor for it. [04:14] jbr: it's not to do with nginx, but Debian/apt [04:14] not really. It's our placeholder site in case of a fail-whale situation. [04:15] the "site" was up for a month and never used. === kay is now known as Guest47323 [04:15] it's also possible the default path simply changed [04:15] precedence: where do I alter that? [04:15] and you're looking at the default text at the new default path [04:15] in nginx's config [04:16] presumably found via dpkg -L nginx | grep -i etc, though not necessarily [04:16] nope it didn't change.

So I can google it? [04:47] what is the best google term for it =) [04:48] probably: linux multiple suspend save restore [04:48] ok I try, thanks [05:02] hi [05:03] ever heard of system76, is it any good? [05:03] nicu: not really, no [05:03] re: good [05:03] dell or hp looks better to me [05:03] dunno === ToneKnee_ is now known as ToneKnee [05:04] dell or hp is probably cheaper and lighter [05:04] will it have gnu/linux preinstalled? Far less likely [05:04] is that a big deal? Not hardly ever [05:04] for example [05:04] the cheapest system76 laptop is $650 [05:05] the cheapest laptop at walmart is about $140 [05:05] let's call it $150 for easy maths [05:05] what is the point to advertise that it has ubuntu pre-installed? [05:05] if the hardware sucks? [05:05] that's a $500 tax just so you can avoid the... $150 Windows fee? [05:05] well what is the point if it costs 300% more [05:05] :-DD [05:05] 333%* [05:06] some people don't think things through [05:06] and there is profit there :p [05:06] not had super great experiences with dell [05:06] have with hp [05:06] admittedly the dells I had bad experiences with were other people's, who used Windows [05:06] and Windows kills hardware [05:08] how do I troubleshoot my microphone not working? I tried searching online. I tried the front and back ports. I wonder if I can use my headphones as a microphone in case my mic is broken somehow. [05:08] LonelyDanbo: probably need to jimmy a custom ~/.asoundrc [05:09] I'm afraid I hate doing that every time and never remember the best steps [05:09] first: search for your laptop model and "asoundrc" :D [05:09] might get lucky [05:09] it's a desktop PC [05:13] LonelyDanbo: yeah if you scream into a headphone it will sometimes work as a bad microphone, you can try a few things though [05:13] LonelyDanbo: s/laptop/computer/ [05:14] LonelyDanbo: can also try alsamixer to adjust your mic settings and make sure it isn't muted [05:14] LonelyDanbo: and arecord can be used at the command line to record from ALSA devices directly which is as low level an audio connection as you'll get I think [05:15] ok. looks like my mic is broken then. at least my headphones plugged into the mic are making the meter go up. [05:16] LonelyDanbo: http://quicktoots.linux-audio.com/toots/quick-toot-arecord_and_rtmix-1.html [05:16] LonelyDanbo: using a regular 1/8th or 3.5mm audio jack? if so yeah I'd guess just broken mic [05:16] what the... now my mic is making the bar go up too. I coulda sworn I tried it in the back port. [05:17] maybe you have a mute button on the mic? [05:17] nope. hrm. [05:17] yah hard to say lots of things can go wrong with audio [05:17] especially if you throw bluetooth or jackaudio stuff in the mix but even just alsa and pulseaudio things can get complicated [05:18] yeah. [05:18] best to start with alsa tools though I think if you can [05:20] um, isn't pulseaudio the standard for ubuntu? i'm not sure how it connects with alsa [05:20] but that's involved too right? [05:22] no alsa sits under pulsaudio both of them are running [05:22] there's just some extra utils for accesing and messing with alsa in alsa-utils package I think [05:23] !info alsa-utils [05:23] alsa-utils (source: alsa-utils): Utilities for configuring and using ALSA. In component main, is optional. Version 1.0.29-0ubuntu1 (wily), package size 923 kB, installed size 2128 kB (Only available for linux-any) [05:23] I don't even remember if I have ALSA [05:24] it should be there running just, sudo apt-get install alsa-utils, then run alsamixer the link I pasted above has some sample arecord and aplay commands [05:24] yeah just... I seem to recall that one of the two messes my audio up when I install it. [05:24] LonelyDanbo: no that's Jack audio you're thinking of probably [05:24] Jack and Pulse don't regularly play nice together unless you install another module to bridge between em [05:24] no. ALSA or pulse, one of the two. [05:25] so far as I know alsa itself is already installed and runs as the low level layer connecting to the hardware and pulse connects to alsa but I could be totally wrong [05:25] either way the utils don't cause any issues on my system [05:26] yeah but your system isn't my system. [05:26] I did have issues when configuring Jack and running Pulse at the same time so I could do some midi stuff but in recent times haven't seen any issues with alsa and pulse [05:26] http://askubuntu.com/questions/426983/how-can-i-tell-if-im-using-alsa-or-pulse-audio-by-default-switching-to-i3-wm [05:26] it uses both [05:29] so you should be all good to test it out with the alsa utilities if that doesn't work then it's not likely anything else will in my experience, usually if things are working in alsa then they work fine in pulseaudio (again for the most part there are definitely edge cases) === croc is now known as crazyhorse [05:38] I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 on an X60 tablet and experience automatic logouts whenever the mouse is in the bottom left corner when the screen is swiveled.

[05:50] not yet, (was going to resort to that as the fallback option), looks like an acpid or xorg event is triggered [05:50] maybe it is solved in an upstream kernel or xorg [05:51] prelovedgood: any reason you choosing 12.04 for your tablet? i think 14.04 might have better touch support [05:51] I will upgrade soon, lotuspsychje! [05:51] swiveling now with acpid disabled [05:52] prelovedgood: fresh install instead mate, might do some good to your device [05:53] Greetings. I just spent the entire day trying to setup my ubuntu VM in windows azure so I can reliably use RDP (remote desktop), but it kept disconnecting at random times. My question, would be...does anyone use RDP successfully or is vncserver running on the VM a better option? [05:54] squarelocker: be carefull with rdp and vnc for security reasons [05:55] squarelocker: can you get your work done is ssh? [05:55] prelovedgood: could also be user related, try creating another user and test from there? [05:55] lotuspsychje: I'm now using SSH to create a tunnel, vncserver is running on my ubuntu VM and I'm running vncviewer on my windows machine. My connection is very reliable, just checking with the experts (all of you) to see if that is the common practice. [05:56] disabling acpid works [05:56] squarelocker: maybe the ##networking guys can assist better in your layout, but again try to avoid vnc/vncviewer etc, youl get hammered 24/7 [05:57] prelovedgood: nice one! [05:57] lotuspsychje: thank you, does acpid do anything useful? [05:57] prelovedgood: hibernation and stuff, [05:58] lotuspsychje: I will check with those guys. My 5901 port is not even exposed, I have to explicitly open it when running Azure VMs. I do feel that I'm somewhat in a safe place. I appreciate your feedback. [05:58] prelovedgood: i would try 14.04.4 fresh on your device, you might have better total experience [05:59] squarelocker: ok mate, not sure there's a specific ubuntu/azure channel [05:59] squarelocker, for remote desktop are u using xrdp? [06:01] littlebear: yes, but the connection was not reliable at all when using windows RDP (the built-in one). Running application would disconnect me, and sometimes it would close down after connecting...very weird behaviour. [06:02] squarelocker, odd, i only experienced that with the bundled xrdp, i had to compile it myself for the most upgraded, it's in github [06:03] littlebear: that is good to know. I will have to give that a shot.

[06:21] <_SLM_> Hi - update manager notified me of a bunch of new updates and as per routine I just approved them all. Anyway, it said "not enough free disk space" on /boot. My HDD has 55GB free diskspace, wtf? [06:22] _SLM_: try cleaning out with bleachbit [06:22] ls [06:22] exit [06:22] quit [06:23] <_SLM_> Okay, thanks lotuspsychje [06:23] <_SLM_> Weird that Ubuntu can't handle this automatically [06:23] <_SLM_> But OK [06:24] _SLM_: the user is responsible for cleaning/optimizing own system not ubuntu [06:24] <_SLM_> I don't make my system dirty? Why would I have to clean it? [06:25] _SLM_: daily use makes a system fuller [06:26] <_SLM_> Heh, I thought that was a Windows-thing :P [06:26] <_SLM_> Okay [06:27] <_SLM_> I suppose it makes sense, many moving parts [06:27] _SLM_: a system needs a carefull owner to keep it maintained :p [06:29] <_SLM_> I'm not careful? :P [06:29] _SLM_: your /boot is full and need attention from you :p [06:30] <_SLM_> Alright, learned something new. /boot needs maintenance :) [06:31] _SLM_: the whole system aswell [06:31] <_SLM_> What else do I need to do? [06:32] <_SLM_> Is defragging also required on Linux? [06:32] _SLM_: /boot/ only needsaintainance if you have a separate /boot/ partition. Why did you create a separate /boot partition rather than have it be part of /? [06:32] <_SLM_> I didn't [06:32] <_SLM_> afaik [06:33] <_SLM_> Is this not default? [06:33] _SLM_: no doesnt need, is it hd mechanical or ssd? [06:33] <_SLM_> hdd, not ssd [06:33] _SLM_: Someone did. It's not default. Did you perhaps choose LVM or full disk encryption during installation? [06:34] <_SLM_> I choose no full disk encryption, that's the only thing afaik that I didn't default === balu is now known as Guest80146 [06:34] <_SLM_> dunno what LVM is [06:34] <_SLM_> Linux Virtual Machine? Just guessing.. [06:35] _SLM_: whats your ubuntu version? [06:35] <_SLM_> 14.04 [06:35] <_SLM_> LTS [06:35] _SLM_: clean or upgraded a lot in the past? [06:35] _SLM_: Please pastebin the output of "mount" and the contents of /etc/fstab. [06:35] <_SLM_> No upgrades, no real cleaning either [06:36] _SLM_: i meant clean install sorry [06:37] <_SLM_> clean install [06:37] <_SLM_> moved from windows to ubuntu 6 months ago or so [06:37] <_SLM_> daily use since [06:37] _SLM_: ok try what Jordan_U suggested [06:38] <_SLM_> s [06:38] <_SLM_> ./etc/fstab doesnt exist [06:38] nc termbin.com 9999 < /etc/fstab [06:38] No dot [06:38] <_SLM_> I added dot for IRC [06:38] Uh [06:38] <_SLM_> cant start since with / [06:38] <_SLM_> *sentence [06:39] No fstab, that's weird [06:39] <_SLM_> bash: cd: /etc/fstab: Is geen map [06:40] <_SLM_> Is geen map = Is no directory [06:40] It's a file _SLM_ [06:40] <_SLM_> oh [06:41] <_SLM_> http://termbin.com/jkbz [06:42] <_SLM_> http://pastebin.com/raw/zZ5AXVSE [06:42] hmm /dev/mapper is encryption right Jordan_U ? [06:43] <_SLM_> termbin = fstab [06:43] <_SLM_> pastebin = mount [06:43] it can be lvm, that's even suggested default is it not [06:43] anyhow, boot is on its own partition by the looks of it [06:44] _SLM_: i would try bleachbit as root, and clean out system..see what it does [06:44] <_SLM_> okay, will do === mohammad is now known as linuxlove [06:45] hello every body [06:45] hi all, there used to be a "file size view" in konqueror that would display a chart of space used by files [06:46] is that not installed by default ? if not what packages has it ? [06:46] i need to download android studio i live at Iran i cant download it what should i do? [06:46] linuxlove: google is blocked in Iran ? [06:46] vincent42, yes [06:46] vincent42, what should i do? [06:47] you could use a vpn [06:47] or find some mirror that is accessible in Iran [06:47] vincent42, i dunno any mirror [06:48] vincent42, just http://mirror.sito.ir/Oracle%20Database [06:48] but i get 404 not found [06:48] _SLM_: You're using LVM: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lvm . It's definitely not default so if you didn't know you enabled it then you should probably pay better attention when installing. [06:49] linuxlove: your best bet is to use a vpn I guess [06:49] vincent42, Forbidden [06:49] You don't have permission to access /Oracle Database on this server. [06:49] <_SLM_> Joran_U I see.. [06:49] <_SLM_> *Jordan_U [06:50] vincent42, i never used from vpn [06:50] vincent42, how can use a proxy for that [06:50] Jordan_U: I actually do think it is default, "use full disk with LVM" [06:50] * hateball boots an installer to see [06:51] _SLM_: you can just manually delete old kernels to free up enough space to let apt-get autoremove run successfully. There are also various scripts that can remove all but the currently used kernel etc [06:52] vincent42, could you put this link in another place for me or in dropbox please? [06:52] <_SLM_> Currently bleachbit is running, hateball. Does that remove old kernels? [06:53] _SLM_: No idea, I've not used it [06:53] <_SLM_> okay [06:53] _SLM_: But I am assuming since lotuspsychje suggested it, it will [06:53] 2 [06:53] <_SLM_> Okay [06:54] <_SLM_> It's taking quite long, looks like it was really necessary [06:54] _SLM_: afaik it is some software that cleans browser cache etc, which consists of many small files and that takes a good while as well [06:55] Surely it has some way of telling you what it actually does? [06:55] <_SLM_> Yeah, it's logging output lots of small files being wiped [06:55] <_SLM_> Not one big one taking long, just lots of small [07:04] <_SLM_> Anyway, it'll take a while. I assume it will work when it's done. Thanks for helping lotuspsychje, Jordan_U, ouroumov__ and hateball [07:07] is it possible to setup a pxe-server on ubuntu without using that server as dhcp-server? (because I want my "consumer-router" to be dhcp) [07:09] pragomer_1: as long as your router can tell your dhcp clients where the pxe server is [07:11] pragomer_1: that is, be able to supply option 66 and 67. something I doubt the original firmware does [07:12] I successfully used a kind of pxe boot using a grml.org iso in virtualbox.. activated "grml-terminalserver" and I could boot from pxe from any computer in the lan.. so I think the router is able to do that? === mohammad is now known as linuxlove [07:43] what is nmtui?

[08:03] Gamah: 1 [08:03] Gamah: kinda [08:03] Gamah: we enable that after the point release, so when 16.04.1 ships [08:03] Gamah: but you can force it yourself, and that typically should work fine. [08:03] Sweet... Mental note set, thanks! [08:03] np [08:04] Gamah: many prefer to reinstall a new LTS. I went from 12.04 to 14.04 fine, so you dont *have* to [08:06] somsip: if upgrading over SSH fails me I'll probably reinstall next time I'm physically close to the machine :) [08:07] Gamah: fair enough [08:07] Gamah: I'd give it a week or so after release, so everyone else finds the upgrade issues before you have to hit them :) [08:08] With my history I'll remember when 16.10 drops === Guest97000 is now known as shroud === altinu is now known as altin [08:23] hi all [08:24] i use dd to clone my two hard driver [08:24] how to turn on sshd on vm?

[08:26] mahdi: well if it's cloned, you could mount the filesystems and use rsync instead [08:27] hateball, and how i can use rsync in whole of hard disk [08:28] mahdi: You wouldnt rsync the disk, you would rsync files on the partitions [08:29] HalfEatenPie, i install new package after last cloning and i want see all change in first hard in second hard [08:31] hateball, i install new package after last cloning and i want see all change in first hard in second hard [08:34] mahdi: if you only care about general changes, not low-level filesystem things, you might try Meld to compare the two [08:44] why see the pid and jobs id when I run command `command > /dev/null &` ... why the pid not > /dev/null [08:51] Any option I can clone a Windows 7 OS Ntfs and mount it and extract files ? using clonezilla as cloning ? === zenlot1 is now known as zenlot === krish is now known as Guest11140 [08:55] hey, i have an application that won't expand when i click it in unity bar, it runs fine but when i click another window i can't bring it back to the front, any ideas ? === thomas is now known as THOMAS === gustav___ is now known as GUSTAV___ [09:00] ren0v0: alt+tab?

[09:09] take your time fudge [09:09] is there a way to make a new ubuntu USB Stick [09:09] crypt on boot [09:09] with veracrypt or something [09:13] samaraa: not all canonical decisions are supported by the community [09:14] (linux newbie here) what is a way of configuring permissions for a /www/ folder such that nginx/apache can do what they must, but that I can have a user that can alter/upload files via ftp? [09:16] timetocode: Make a group owner of the directory. Make the apache user and the regular user members of that group. [09:17] hateball, is www-data a group or a user? === THOMAS is now known as THOMAS-0x71 [09:18] timetocode: It could be anything, where are you reading this? [09:18] hateball, o [09:18] timetocode: permissions are set as owner:group [09:18] hateball, i've recently installed ubuntu and ngix, and my www folder has www-data:www-data [09:19] timetocode: yes commonly a user also has a group with the same name [09:19] timetocode: anyhow, you could make another user member of the www-data group. or create a brand new group that has permissions on the desired folder [09:19] if i wanted my user to write, but didnt want www-data to write ( i think www-data is what nginx uses..? ) could i make my user the owner, and then still ahve the group like myuser:www-data [09:20] timetocode: yes, if you set the permissions that way [09:20] so it's rwxr--r-- or whatever you like [09:20] hateball, okay that makes sense to me, ty [09:21] !permissions [09:21] An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [09:21] ^ use x too [09:21] rwxr-xr-x [09:21] it is going to be drwxr-xr-x myuser:www-data when done, i think [09:25] cool, bash scripting is cool and quiclk; i want to extract "20160222" out of "/home/root/emtReport_20160222.pdf", any simplest way to do this, kind stuck abit [09:25] Do you recommend a video recording software another than recordmydesktop?

[09:54] k-joseph: what do you mean by "extract" ? [09:54] k-joseph: do you want to rename the file? or use the numbers for something else? [09:55] mmh maybe grep [0-9] [09:55] k-joseph, echo "/home/root/emtReport_20120222.pdf" | sed -r 's/.*([0-9]{8}).*/\1/' [09:56] yeah that lol [09:56] very greedy though [09:56] Things can get overly complex unless we know the end goal :) [09:56] echo "/home/root/emtReport_20120222.pdf" | grep -o [0-9].*[0-9] [10:00] i'm making an upstart script to daemonize a node app, the key line is 'exec sudo -u myuser npm start' -- when i do this, there is somwthing wrong with the permissions, but i can run npm start as myuser when outside of the script, what am i doing wrong? [10:00] mgor that path keeps changing which means that index is not the best way out [10:00] egrep -io '[0-9]+' [10:01] keeps changing? [10:01] what hateball said [10:01] resio it's not always the same [10:02] k-joseph: what hateball said [10:02] k-joseph: You still havent told us what you are looking to do [10:02] Hi there. I need help with my laptop. I can't controle volume up/down/mute when I am in a game in fullsceen [10:02] k-joseph: What is the end goal? [10:02] alain_: why not? [10:03] I want to assign part of that path date like to a variable [10:03] how're you getting the filename [10:04] probably mgor's first one was fine [10:04] replace the echo value with whatever your filename source is [10:05] I find it by name, so I have several files with almost the same name but varying dates [10:05] k-joseph: Will there only be one... oh you said it [10:05] Anyone have an opinion on how far Ubuntu has come in the area of accessibility for the blind? Noticed you've come far enough to distribute documentation in portable EPUB format already.) [10:05] reisio, I have no idea, keys just don't do anything [10:06] alain_: what make/model? [10:06] Mikaze: there are a few distros specifically catering to the blind [10:06] I doubt Ubuntu would compare favorably [10:07] not that it couldn't, with a great deal of reconfiguration [10:07] reisio, HP, model 17-P128NF [10:07] hateball there many files of a similar folder path but varying file name which differ by the date I want to extra out of such a path [10:07] k-joseph: and then what will you do [10:08] hi all, I would like to enable the extension .phtml in apache2, but not by using the common php5 module, I need to use php-fpm. FastCGI seems to be configured well, but I don't know where I need to set up AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml ? [10:08] Not like the others don't require the same configuration. I have yet to get yasr running in Debian, and I've been running it for a decade now. [10:09] Mikaze: no there are actually distros _specifically_ for the blind, preconfigured [10:09] again, not that you can't reconfigure any one distro to be like another, it's just about upfront work [10:09] but given the specificity, it'd be a fair amount of it [10:09] resio read it's content which is not a problem to me [10:09] Please just tell me one thing. Is there a "nfbtrans" package in Ubuntu? [10:09] Mikaze: screenreading is rather the wrong approach, IMO [10:10] what you want is text renderers in the first place [10:10] and something like emacspeak [10:10] That's what I've been telling the Gnome-Orca guys from day 1. [10:12] k-joseph: like... if you are in the folder with the file(s) in question, this will strip out only the numbers from it [10:12] k-joseph: for i in $(ls |grep [0-9]|sed 's/[a-Z|._]//'g); do echo $i; done [10:12] i can normally hit ctrl-x to close out of a running node process.. but i ran one with an extra layer to it, by typing 'exec sudo -u myuser /usr/bin/npm start' (which starts a node process) and now my console is just the log of the process.. how can i quit this? [10:12] k-joseph: you may need to add other characters to the sed part if you want to remove those... and instead of echo, run whatever you need [10:13] Mikaze: nfbtrans looks like a single C file, you could just cc build it [10:13] hi [10:14] hi crest [10:14] Tried. Too many missing libs in my distro. Only one I've seen with it is Gentoo, and I'n still not ready to run around recompiling everything. I wanna use the system, not continuously work on it. [10:14] Is there is a core ubuntu of small size [10:14] without gui [10:15] Alright reisio. Thanks. Nice chatting with you. [10:15] * Mikaze waves... [10:15] Mikaze: should be a brief compile [10:15] hi reisio [10:15] Is there is a core ubuntu of small size [10:16] minimal [10:17] ^ crestcore_ is what it's called (minimalcd image) [10:18] can you send me the link to download [10:19] crestcore_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD (top result from googling 'ubuntu minimal') [10:20] what is size occupied after installation? [10:20] depends on what you choose [10:21] can i install java, tomcat and mysql on it? [10:21] yes [10:21] ty [10:22] np dood [10:22] you might consider not java, nginx, and mariadb/postgresql instead :) [10:23] hellow [10:23] hi [10:23] .. [10:23] hi [10:23] hellow [10:23] Noob here- You can get a used server of ebay (Xeons, 32gb ram, etc) for a low price. Could you get an old server and install linux on it? [10:24] ky [10:24] JayJay: yup [10:24] hi [10:24] iam korean [10:24] inmoubount: nice [10:24] you? [10:24] I'm swiss/german/english/something [10:24] what your name [10:25] ?

[10:25] JayJay: zero hard [10:25] what are u frome [10:25] JayJay: servers are simpler hardware, they're more likely to have been tested against Unix systems, they're made up of hardware that power user developers prefer [10:25] ..

[11:32] yes, it is. another sd card is recognized perfectly fine [11:32] mss_cyclist: ok can you try if gparted can still see the card? [11:32] mss_cyclist: gksu gparted and right ontop above see if the card lists [11:34] mss_cyclist: wich ubuntu version is this? [11:35] i already tried gparted. it does not show [11:35] it is ubuntu 14.04 lts [11:37] i could see the card for a fraction of time when i issued following command: [11:37] watch -n 0 lsscsi [11:37] mss_cyclist: can you see if you got these installed? sudo apt-get install mtp-tools mtpfs === blackbox is now known as decrypt [11:37] both are installed [11:38] mss_cyclist: tought so [11:38] do i need to uninstall them?

[11:40] it was from a mobile and ejected without unmounting [11:40] it is not recognized in the mobile or under windows [11:40] my hope was to recover the card under linux [11:41] mss_cyclist: can you see any marks of damage on the card itself? [11:42] what brand sd card [11:42] the card looks mechanically fine [11:43] it is samsung 8gb micro sd hc [11:43] mss_cyclist: can you turn it over to the back, and make sure there's no thin crack on the back? [11:43] micro sd cards are pretty fragile [11:43] ive seen a lot of new samsung cards cracked in the new case [11:44] mss_cyclist: also if gparted cant recognize, i dont think we need to test recovering data with testdisk neither...

Support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [11:56] jackneill: " [11:56] Designing for convergence Jouni's photo Jouni Helminen Posted on 24th February 2016Filed under: Design Development [11:56] Share this article: [11:56] lotuspsychje: yes.. actually, I did got the install right on the 1st time I installed ubuntu15.10 on this machine.. issue was.. it no longer boots up by the time change the "Appearance" and along with the change of Appearance, I upgraded the kernel to 4.3 which is why I am not sure why it's no longer booting.. so I ended up re-installing the OS [11:56] Share on Twitter [11:56] Share via Email [11:56] Share on Facebook [11:57] upbeta: i would test a lower nvidia version + nvidia-prime [11:57] upbeta: another thing you can try is a daly 16.04 on that machine, see what it does there [11:57] daily [11:57] ok.. let me try that [11:57] Like many apps, Dekko uses a list view to represent the primary level, and a detail view to show the secondary level. Where there’s room, these views can be displayed side by side, but on small screen screens or very shrunk windows, a PageStack showing only the list becomes the primary screen. On larger screens or expanded windows, the page stack automatically progresses into the familiar two-panel configuration. This adaptive layout is common o [11:57] n responsive websites, and our SDK team have built a component in the UI toolkit that does most of the hard work for you – AdaptivePageLayout. [11:57] email-desktop [11:57] The list item, which lives in the list component, is another example of ready made component that helps developers write convergent apps with less effort. The new ListItem in our toolkit has useful, well designed default layouts baked in when using ListItemLayout. It is also optimised for both touch and pointer interaction – via ListItemActions. A common pattern of interacting with list items on touch devices is to drag them left or right revealing [11:58] a contextual menu containing key actions such as delete. When using a pointer, however, you would typically right click and use the contextual menu to reveal the same menu. Our UI Toolkit supports both types of input at all times, so you could drag the item left or right using a mobile or touch-enabled monitor, or right click using a mouse. We believe users should be free to mix how they interact with our components using whatever means is at their disposal [11:58] and to their liking. [11:58] This behaviour is already baked into our ListItem component, so users will have a consistent experience when using apps, and developers will save time not having to roll their own solutions. [11:58] Music [11:58] convergence-music [11:58] The music app is another example of the super talented Ubuntu community getting involved in building some of our core apps together with our internal teams. You might remember Andrew Hayzen and Victor Thompson from a previous interview on this blog. They have since been adding features and functionality to the app, and a convergent music app using multiple panels is currently working in a branch and will be landing in the master release soon. We are also [11:58] looking at adding support for streaming music functionality, keep an eye out for this in the near future :) [11:58] music-closeup [11:58] The multi-panel music app reacts to window size changes intelligently – the album cards resize and shuffle themselves on window size changes. On smaller screen devices we have a persistent “Now playing” control bar at the bottom of the screen, but on larger screen sizes we have enough real estate to reimagine the play bar as an extra panel on the right with “Now playing” information, along with cover art, controls and a scrollable queue. [11:58] Calendar [11:58] convergent_calendar [11:58] The calendar app has been on the phone for a while but until now it hadn’t really had any UI design love or designs for larger screens. We wanted to apply our visual language in the context of an app that is by default very minimal, allowing the few design elements to stand on their own. [11:58] Suru, our visual language, is light and flat, minimizing distractions, with carefully selected tones of gray, consistent spacing and margins to help the content breathe. We’ve added considered splashes of highlight colours that enhance the visual hierarchy without overwhelming it. [11:58] On the calendar app we are again making use of multiple panels, surfacing several layers when we have the real estate available. The same feature set of the app is of course available on all sizes, and the navigation feels intuitive with whatever input method or screen size you are using. [11:58] upbeta: you can check in the recoverymode/terminal what kind of drivers available with ubuntu-drivers [11:58] calendar-closeup [11:59] jackneill: its mostly a mockup. but you could try the "core apps" or the unity8inlxc preview of the new unity8 that runs on the phones already [12:00] jackneill: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/CoreApps [12:01] k1l_: thanks [12:02] I have a USB TV Tuner which I have put the relevant .fw files in /lib/firmware directory [12:02] Do I need to do anything else or when I insert the USB Tuner will it automatically see the .fw files and install the right drivers [12:06] if my VCard is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M what is the corresponding driver for it? < nvidia-355 ?

[13:04] k1l_: I didn't play with it a ton, but I noted that it has the launcher and panel [13:05] MoPac: could be worth a try to rename that users .config file to .config_backup and see if it works then [13:05] Hello, world! [13:05] if guest account is fine that sounds like a user settings that is wrong [13:07] k1l_: I'll give that a shot -- though I think the failsafe X mode fails before it has the chance to select this user? [13:08] I think I'll have to restart after renaming the config file because I'm not sure I can log out from here -- is there a terminal command from within user session that can do it?

I already reinstalled gcc (which reports gcc version 5.2.1 20151010 (Ubuntu 5.2.1-22ubuntu2) ) now. Unfortunately the setup of standard includes seems wrong. stdio.h does not seem to know size_t. How can I better understand, what goes wrong? [13:26] #milano [13:30] Will I've to upgrade to 14.04.04 or it'll +r automatically updated? [13:31] here's a weird one. I've been a sudoer on my desktop box since it was installed abotu 6 months ago. now every time I sudo, I get the error "User is not in the sudoers list". seemed to happen quite suddenly, no warning. I am in www-data group but not sudo (or, crucially, docker), so maybe I accidently changed group instead of adding? anyway: any solutions that *dont* involve rebooting? [13:32] Stephen44: if you are on a 14.04 and run the updates it will become 14.04.4 automatically [13:32] Thanks k1l_ [13:33] hello [13:34] I updated my Ubuntu and now my fan is working very hard, any way to revert the updates? [13:35] Isn't kde has the same flavour of windows start and all those? While gnome is a way different environment! And ubuntu unity is absolutely amazing especially that dash! [13:35] The fan is constantly on 2800~ even though temperatures are around 38~ and almost nothing is on. [13:36] Before update it was on 1700-1900~ in similar situations.

[13:37] Stephen44: unity [13:37] shubi, ubuntu does not support rolling back updates [13:38] shubi: what updates? [13:38] shubi: you cannot roll back updates unless you have a backup. But you can select an older kernel from the GRUB menu [13:38] High five [13:38] reinstall. or smarter yet, install fan support [13:38] !fans | shubi [13:38] k1l_, I did the recommended updates and now the fan is much louder. [13:38] shubi: did you do a clean install again before? didnt you change to a new kernel yesterday? [13:38] k1l_, yea I updated the kernel and that went well. [13:39] I think it's better to check the start up applications & check the processes shubi [13:39] shubi: what does "top" tell about load average? [13:39] but then i got this "Updates" window and I pressed ok [13:40] load average: 0.02, 0.28, 0.35 [13:40] !vm [13:40] There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications [13:40] It's just constantly on 2700~ since the moment i turned it on after the update. [13:41] Even though temperature are very low right now (36-33) [13:41] shubi still the same issue from yesterday? [13:41] Maybe you have installed the unsupported updates [13:42] ironically the fan itself is heating the keyboard a little. [13:42] shubi: "uname -a"?

[16:14] display manager [16:14] Pici: yeah I unterstand, but its very sad, that I want help with slovak locale ( for Ubuntu Touch, Ubuntu)_ and nobody answered from the gruop, and so I cant translate it, because it must be reviewed [16:15] Hey folks. [16:15] Anyone around that can give me a hand installing some drivers?

[16:21] Myrtti: dont you need to add a ban after the auto quiet? [16:21] I'm sure he'll return with a different ip anyway next time, no matter what I do [16:22] So i've tracked down the relevant *.fw files from linuxtv.org and added them to the /lib/firmware directory [16:22] But the device doesn't seem to appear in the tvheadend config as there [16:25] How do I find out if Ubuntu has recognised the device correctly and installed the correct driver? [16:26] BlackVenom: no context (just waking up), but I think you'd see something in dmesg if a driver was loaded & recognized a device [16:27] lotuspsychje simply wait a few years, until the spammer will be older than 7 and behaves accordingly [16:29] Hey nacc [16:30] dmesg gives me this http://pastebin.com/G4vn6HvS [16:31] BlackVenom: ok, so it found a usb stick -- is that the device in question? [16:31] Yes thats the USB TV Tuner [16:32] BlackVenom, try also lsusb [16:32] yeah, lsusb will be better for this case, probably [16:32] Hey ioria, yes lsusb also shows the device [16:33] BlackVenom, ls -l /dev/dvb/* [16:33] oojjlkjkjkjkjjkkj [16:33] No such file or directory ioria [16:33] BlackVenom: for reference, what's the driver? [16:34] bonjour [16:35] nacc, http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-T2_USB_Devices I've downloaded the two firmware files for Geniatech T230, 5th one down the table [16:35] !fr | attercop [16:35] attercop: Nous sommes desoles mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [16:35] #ubuntu-fr [16:36] The device I have is labled August T210 but the Device ID is the same as the Geniatech T230. I believe its just rebranded [16:36] BlackVenom: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Geniatech_T230 seems to have more complete info? [16:37] are there a way to see tablet of asus is approved for asus company [16:38] BlackVenom: `lsmod | grep dvb-usb`, does it indicate dvb-usb is loaded? If not, can you try `modprobe dvb-usb`? [16:38] nothing for lsmod | grep dvb-usb [16:38] What's the problem? [16:39] BlackVenom: ok, so secondary issue for figuring out why it's not autoloading, but let's see if it recognizes it if you manually load dvb-usb [16:39] When I run 'modprobe dvb-usb' should I get a response? [16:39] BlackVenom: you shouldn't get an error [16:39] BlackVenom: and dmesg *should* have more content now? [16:40] what does lsusb show? [16:40] how can i see tablet of asus is orginal [16:40] dmesg hasn't changed [16:41] Hey aq2 & BluesKaj. Trying to get a USB TV Tuner working with ubuntu [16:41] BlackVenom: what kernel are you on? [16:42] BlackVenom: And vlc doesn't reacognize it? [16:42] recognize [16:42] How do I find that out? I'm running 14.04 LTS Server === davidcalle is now known as davidcalle_afk [16:42] BlackVenom: uname -r [16:43] It works fine when I connect it to a Raspberry Pi so the stick isn't faulty [16:43] Kernel = 3.13.0-79-generic [16:43] Try a newer kernel. [16:44] sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-wily [16:44] BlackVenom: as the page says you need 3.19 or later [16:44] Thats 4.something so should do :) [16:44] BlackVenom: what kernel is it on the rpi? [16:44] aq2, is that the command to update the kernel? [16:44] Yes BlackVenom. [16:45] k1l_ , Not sure and can't boot it at the mo [16:45] BlackVenom: you can get a 4.2 kernel, which is the 15.10 backports kernel, on 14.04 from the official ubuntu repo [16:45] !hwe | BlackVenom [16:45] BlackVenom: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [16:45] BlackVenom: Reboot after installing. If you can't boot after that hold down shift on startup, go to advanced options and choose the old kernel. [16:45] just running it now aq2 [16:46] Ok [16:46] running it headless to fingers crossed it'll boot [16:47] If its less than 10 years old i'm sure it'll be fine [16:47] rebooting now [16:47] eeeek [16:48] need a little assistance ... trying to find and replace with wildcards .. cant seem to get it right ... i want to remove all returns to make everything one line ... then add a chr after every #####-##-##-#####, [16:49] jgcampbell300: I don't fully understand what you want to do. [16:49] New kernel loaded [16:49] Nice [16:50] Now your tv card should work :) [16:50] dmesg says the firmware has loaded [16:51] I am finding that latest release hangs on display manager after software updates, this on vmware. anyone heard of this ? happening on mythbuntu as well [16:51] hi all [16:51] attilahooper: That's normal for non-lts versions, that's why the install page recommends the latest lts version. Right now its 14.04. [16:51] yep 14.04 lts [16:52] Woohoo and the card now shows in tvheadend [16:52] aq2: when im makeing a text file and hit enter to go to next line what is that called [16:52] Thanks everyone [16:52] chr return ? [16:52] heh - BV is happy [16:52] :) [16:52] jgcampbell300: a newline character? [16:52] aq2: ya [16:52] i have problem on network that show p4p1 on ubuntu server 14.04, need that to change eth0 [16:53] sortof: Change what about it? [16:53] attilahooper: Can you boot in the recovery mode? [16:53] aq2: I want to remove all those from text ... then i need to find all the #####-##-##-#####, and make them #####-##-##-#####," [16:54] jgcampbell300: If you're editing a text file with a text editor maybe Ctrl+H is what you want? [16:54] aq2: I was and also ssh. nothing in logs, reinstalled ubuntu desktop and a lightdm etc. nothing worked [16:54] aq2: I am using geany .. i just cant figgure out how to get my wild cards to do it [16:54] ethernet name p4p1 to eth0 in ubuntu 14.04 [16:55] sortof: is "biosdevname" installed? [16:55] jgcampbell300: Geany takes a regular expression, not wildcards [16:55] yes k1l [16:55] aq2: ya sorry ... thats what im working on ... i was trying to use \d{5}-\d{2}-\d{2}-\d{5} [16:56] jgcampbell300: I know nothing about regexes [16:56] aq2: ok ty [16:56] sortof: sudo apt-get purge biosdevname [16:56] aq2: I'm downloading debian to see if this is ubuntu specific [16:56] sortof: then "sudo update-initramfs -u" [16:56] attilahooper: Maybe a newer Ubuntu version with a new kernel will work? [16:56] k1l: ok do it now [16:56] attilahooper: But did you mention that you can boot it text-based? [16:57] sortof: then look into the /etc/network/interfaces if its using the new device names there. then reboot [16:57] sortof: be prepared to fix the interfaces file with a live cd if you ruin it [16:57] aq2: if I esc during splash it hangs somewhere during boot (i htink just the dislay) because everything runs in the background. AT least on mythbuntu, i didt test ubuntu very far [16:58] sortof: those connections must be made for the system to boot [16:58] Hello, I am currently runnig Mono JIT compiler version 3.2.8 (Debian 3.2.8+dfsg-4ubuntu1.1) - Is there any higher, community supported version I could get? Lately I got messed system by 3rd party install which forced me from 4.2. But one program I work with may need 4 or higher. [16:58] attilahooper: Can you install from the mini.iso, install a new kernel and then the ubuntu desktop? [16:58] aq2: i did go into recovery and boot an older kernal which, if i recall, worked. desktop cam up. [16:58] Hello, can I make an already installed Ubuntu 15.10 Minimal run entirely from RAM? [16:59] attilahooper: So this is a problem with a new kernel [16:59] attilahooper: How old is the computer? [16:59] i can't change Permission for executable (application/x-executable) [16:59] ascot: No, puppy linux is for that. [16:59] aq2: it's a vm on esxi [16:59] but the ubuntu I tried 14.04 was on vmw workstation, same thing [17:00] ascot: ubuntu got the live dvdusb version [17:00] aq2: ok try k1l suggestion 1st [17:01] aq2: doesn't puppy linux come only with a desktop environment? At the moment I need a minimal install [17:01] ascot: Puppy is like that some versions you can "even install" [17:01] For a minimal installation go with ubuntu mini.iso [17:01] k1l_: can I include additional packages to the dvd? Because I need the latest oracla java [17:01] but why would you want to run it fully from ram? [17:02] k1l: still same as old p4p1 not new changing [17:02] ascot: make it a persisten install then [17:02] sortof: do you have a /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules ? [17:02] sortof: if so, remove that [17:03] aq2: no cd install from bootable usb [17:03] sortof: You can boot the mini.iso from usb [17:03] Just dd it there [17:03] sudo dd if=/path/to/mini.iso of=/dev/yourusbstick [17:03] k1l_: already remove after follow suggestion from forum and no luck.. [17:04] sortof: did reboot? removed that package? removed that udev rule? removed that names in /etc/network/interfaces? [17:04] ok so \d{5}-\d{2}-\d{2}-\d{5}, finds what i want ... now how would i find something that will add to the end of \d{5}-\d{2}-\d{2}-\d{5}," [17:05] k1l_: ok reboot now [17:05] sortof: that doesnt work without reboot :/ [17:05] jgcampbell300: Go to replace instead of find, Ctrl+H instead of Ctrl+F [17:05] k1l_: ;) === karin is now known as Guest25009 === Guest25009 is now known as Darkgoogle [17:06] i want to buy a ubuntu book i not sure if i should get this >>>Ubuntu Unleashed 2016 Edition: Covering 15.10 and 16.04 (11th Edition) or >>>Ubuntu Unleashed 2015 Edition: Covering 14.10 and 15.04 (10th Edition) as 14.10 has LTS Support??? thoughts? [17:07] Madhumper69: 14.10, 15.04 and 14.10 are all non LTS releases. [17:07] aq2: thats what im using ... i am asking what expresion do i put in replace .... like \d{5}- in find would be \something in replace ... so i can keep the data i have and just add to the end of it ... i cant find a expresion that works here [17:07] Madhumper69: Isn't 14.04 LTS, not 14.10? [17:07] i can't change Permission for executable (application/x-executable) [17:07] Madhumper69: only 14.04 and 16.04 are LTS (and 12.04 and 10.04, etc) [17:07] jgcampbell300: I dont know, you need to ask someone who knows geany and regexes more or just read the geany manual [17:08] Bassem: What are you trying, and what isn't working? [17:08] Madhumper69, Ubuntu Unleashed, in my opinion, is not a worthwile book. It's a book I would give to my Mother if she wanted to try linux instead of Windows 7. === _Rarity_ is now known as _Rarity [17:09] i want a hard copy book, i been using ubuntu 2 weeks ive done alot so far but i would like indepht knowledge what would you recommend [17:09] Bassem: You are not its owner, likely. Are you running your file manager as root= [17:09] ks3, i have Euro.Truck.Simulator.2.Linux game,, and when i try to run eurotrucks2(application/x-executable) or run run_game.sh(application/x-shellscript) it dos not run [17:09] Bassem: Or use the terminal: (sudo) chmod +x /path/to/file [17:10] Bassem: chmod +x run_game.sh, after that ./run_game.sh [17:10] sortof: support only in here please [17:10] how in depth do you want to go? If you want to get really in the nitty gritty, get Red Hat Certified System Administrator Book [17:10] k1l_: i try to purge biosdevname package 'biosdevname' is not install,so not removed, what is that [17:11] or even more in depth: pick up a book about developing Kernel in C [17:11] well i want to learn the inner workings of ubuntu like terminal all commands and sercurity and maintenance etc... [17:11] sortof: so you removed that before you said? [17:11] aq2, /media/bs/086D1D34086D1D34/games/Euro.Truck.Simulator.2.Linux-ACTiVATED_/Euro.Truck.Simulator.2/bin [17:11] aq2, thats the path for my game [17:12] k1l_: yes i remove it, after reboot no interface up... [17:12] aq: yes, choosing 3.16.0.30 instead of latest 3.16.62 kernel gets the display manager working [17:12] sortof: did reboot? removed that package? removed that udev rule? removed that names in /etc/network/interfaces? === homa is now known as Guest66327 [17:12] RHCSA would be a good fit for you then. look for RHCSA guides and similar [17:12] Bassem: Is the game in the ubuntu software center? [17:12] aq2, no [17:12] sortof: + did you run the update initramfs? [17:12] k1l_: yes i remove it all [17:12] Bassem: Can you give me a download link? [17:13] aq2, its torrent [17:13] k1l_:initramfs update done [17:13] Bassem: No torrent links thanks [17:13] sortof: before the reboot? [17:13] i don't think the ops like torrenting either [17:13] k1l_: yes [17:14] sortof: can you pastebin the /etc/network/interfaces"? [17:14] aq2, i right click the file and select permission but it dos not allow me to change allow excuting file as program [17:14] Bassem: we obviously cant support warez in here. [17:14] Bassem: Move the file to your desktop first and run sudo chown -R $USER ~/Desktop [17:15] I'll be back in about 45 minutes [17:15] k1l_: that system elsewhere [17:16] any recommendations to purchasing a good book to learn ubuntu or debian? [17:17] sortof: ok. since you do what you want anyway: make sure the netowrk/interfaces inlcudes the new names for the network devices now. [17:17] auto lo [17:17] iface lo inet loopback [17:17] auto p4p1 [17:17] iface p4p1 inet dhcp [17:17] aq2, it work fine from dektop [17:18] Madhumper69: I have seen the debian administrators handbook recommended [17:18] sortof: rename the p4p1 with eth0 or whatever your interface is called now. [17:18] aq2, i want to run it from my partition [17:18] you think that would be better then ubuntu unleashed? [17:18] k1l_: ok [17:18] ahh would it be something like ''' ($1)-($2)-($3)-($4),"1" '''???? [17:18] Madhumper69: no idea. haven't looked at either of them ;) [17:18] Bassem: please stop asking for support for running pirated software in this channel [17:19] mcphail, im asking how to run any file from ubuntu partition [17:20] fair enough :P [17:20] Bassem: no, you are asking how to run a pirated game. Stop that [17:20] Madhumper69, it looks like you're mostly trying to learn terminal/bash? more at the administrator level? Then RHCSA is a good fit. While it's not the same distribution of linux, the RHCSA certification goes deeper in depth than most books. === mnepton is now known as mneptok [17:20] at the terminal level, there's very little difference between the two distributions. [17:21] well like i said im new to ubuntu and linux, i want a foundation then i would know where i woulud wanna go fromt here? [17:21] It's when you start worrying about the environment (installed applications, gui, etc) that it's different. [17:22] If you're that new to linux, just find the PDF of Ubuntu Unleashed on google, don't waste money on a book that isn't really that technically useful. === Id_ is now known as OS-17328 [17:24] LordWillO: uh, I don't believe Ubuntu Unleashed is free [17:26] i already have the pdf i just rather have a hard copy so i dont stare at the computer screen for hours lol as i do to much of that already [17:29] hello somebody can help about configuring fortune quoutes in ubuntu ??? i want to show only friendship sentences but i cannot find configuration file [17:31] k1l_: no luck my network not up after do the initramfs [17:32] sortof: ok, once again the procedure: remove that package, upfate initramfs, remove udev rule, change naming in /etc/network/interfaces then reboot. === ghostcube_ is now known as ghostcube [17:36] k1l_: no luck, how to get back to normal === Guest66327 is now known as homa_ [17:37] sortof: what gives "ifconfig -a"? [17:39] k1l_:wait reboot [17:40] k1l_: only lo [17:41] sortof: can you show "cat /etc/network/interfaces"? [17:43] k1l_: cannot paste here other desktop [17:44] k1L-: nvm i try to fix up the system first [17:44] is anyone there? [17:44] i want to be a hacker and i want to learn hacking with linux. [17:45] avenger_q: go and troll somewhere else, like the last times. [17:45] im not trolling [17:48] What's the package name for openssl?..I installed https://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libssl0.9.8 but not able to meet the dependencies [17:48] On vivid [17:50] Nilesh__: that's debian [17:50] Nilesh__: why would you install the debian package in ubuntu? [17:50] is there an easy way to get the full directory with file name? [17:51] nacc: yes but it doesn't solve the openssl dependencies [17:52] Can I get the vivid package name [17:52] sudo updatedb after it's finished use the locate command in a terminal locate is one way [17:52] Nilesh__: eeeek. dont do that [17:53] how can I get the rescue shell on ubuntu 14.04lts [17:53] Nilesh__: and 15.04 is dead now. upgrade to 15.10 asap [17:54] spartan2276, hold down shift key after computer boot splash screen and the grub menu should appear. [17:54] spartan2276, you mean revovery mode ? [17:54] Nilesh__: it's openssl in ubuntu (the naming is the same in debian & ubuntu), but you shouldn't be downloading any .debs manually. Use apt-get or any other package manager. [17:54] yes recovery, damn ATI driver updated and messed up my dual screens [17:55] spartan2276, press shift, Advanced Options, and the recovery mode [17:55] nacc: OK thanks [17:55] Updating drivers is unnecessary unless they have a problem [17:55] Same thing for kernels, to some extent [17:55] nope that is not working [17:55] at all [17:55] k1l_: ok done , wrong on interfaces is change now to eth0 .... tqvm k1l_ [17:56] spartan2276, what is not working ? [17:56] Nilesh__: you are aware that your ubuntu version doesnt have any security updates like libc bug etc? === jimm is now known as Guest34088 [17:56] bring up the recovery mode, I press shift and all I get is a black screen with a blinking cursor [17:57] Yes it's dead on feb4 I guess [17:57] spartan2276, you press shift at boot to make grub screen shows up ... [17:58] Need to update, but the problem is yocto recommends to build it in 14.04 [17:58] spartan2276, then you select Advanced , then root shell [17:58] Nilesh__: what gives you "lsb_release -d"? [17:59] Nilesh__, fwiw, just doing a dist-upgrade here and the following files are being updated libgnutls-openssl27 libgnutls26 libssl1.0.0 openssl [17:59] spartan2276, or you mean that you don't get the grub screen at all ? [18:00] hello! [18:00] Hello, I'm upgrading my ubuntu studio distro (i think to wolverine, but I wasn't really paying attention) and it's now got a window open asking me which CA-certificates i would like to trust. They all start with 'mozilla'. Does anyone have advice? [18:04] exactly I don't get that at all [18:05] charles_h: Can you take a screenshot of it and upload it somewhere? [18:05] so as soon as the login screen comes up I try to login and it goes right back to the login screen again [18:06] how to change permission for mounted media [18:06] spartan2276, so, you can boot ? then open a console [18:06] charles_h: i'd ask in the ubuntu studio channel(s)? [18:06] spartan2276, ctrl +alt +f1 (or f2) [18:06] about to upload a screenshot to flickr [18:07] the ubuntustudio channel is largely tumbleweeds atm [18:08] ioria ok I got the CLI, but how can I revert back to the non ATI drivers === coy is now known as Guest81615 [18:09] spartan2276, how did you install them ? [18:09] aq2: here is a screenshot: https://www.flickr.com/photos/celesteh/24870903679/in/dateposted/ [18:09] spartan2276, comman line, from ati website, from Additional Driver ? how ? [18:09] ioria will this do it sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [18:10] ioria I install them through the settings panel [18:10] spartan2276, you mean Additiona Drivers ? [18:10] yes [18:11] spartan2276, and not working , i assume ? [18:11] charles_h, part of the updates today was openssl after updating the files it also updated the certificates here "Updating certificates in /etc/ssl/certs...." seems normal [18:11] Which, if any. of the new certificates should i select, squinty? [18:11] these usb creation tools, particulary the one's that work with windows, wat do they do besides make the drive bootable and copy over the contents of the .iso to the drive? [18:12] ioria they were working then there was an update and now nothing works [18:12] charles_h, done automatically here... not sure why it would not do the same on ubuntustudio [18:12] all I get is the login screen and that is it [18:13] spartan2276, you can purge them and use the opensource radeon ... sudo apt-get purge fglrx* [18:13] should i select all of them? none of them? some of them? [18:14] zelozelos, check out pendrivelinux.com they have tutorials and may have the info you are looking for [18:14] I need to know why my HP c7200 Photsmart all-in-one printer will not print after I add it to the system..................please help me out......... [18:14] kuell, thanks squinty [18:15] bunjee: did you install hplip? [18:15] bunjee, dont know much, but idea, did you have a more simple printer to make sure the printing system is working (cups n whatnot) [18:16] lotuspsychje: yes [18:16] and can u test the printer to be sure it works [18:16] ten you know where to start at least [18:16] bunjee: how about hplip-gui? [18:16] charles_h, if they are part of the openssl updates that came through today, then they are required for security reasons so personally I would update all..... [18:17] ioria yeah I just purge them [18:17] lotuspsychje: yes [18:17] i don't know if they are or not, as i just told it to do a distro upgrade.... i'll try it with all of them. It's confusing that they ask which ones I trust, as I would think most users would not actually know... [18:18] spartan2276, ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? [18:18] Does anyone know how to specify a shell script in a gitignore file? I'm not sure since shell scripts don't have a file type specified. [18:19] lotuspsychje: it's hooked up to the network and does work. [18:19] charles_h, mozilla related apps are firefox, thunderbird [18:19] lotuspsychje: just not with Ubuntu [18:19] ubuntu057: One option is to make your shell scripts to have a .sh extension [18:19] I think [18:19] thanks squinty, aq2, et al [18:20] aq2, oh yeah that works. Thanks! [18:20] ioria all fixed, thanks [18:20] spartan2276, good, no problem [18:20] ubuntu057: You're welcome :) Add the shebang to the beginning anyway [18:20] #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh [18:23] Heya guys, another noobish question. Can someone please explain to me how the HDDs split in this server? :/ I know there is 1 500GB SSD and a 2TB HDD but that sda/sda2 part lost me.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/15189379/ [18:25] hey all [18:25] are there special drivers for a laptop cooler? [18:26] django_: do you want to tune the fan speed of it? [18:27] lotuspsychje, like my laptop gets hottish [18:27] i run sensors on the terminal so its not overheating but still [18:27] NwS: maybe the #ubuntu-server guys might know how it splits [18:27] tyvm lotuspsychje [18:28] NwS, the HDD seems largely unused... sdb1 might be a mirror of the sda1 root partition [18:29] django_: are you talking about the internal cooler fan, or an external usb cooler plate dock? [18:29] lotuspsychje, cooler fan i can hear it [18:30] frostschutz, I know the 2TB is not used atm (although I would like to start using it) and setup the remaining unused SSD. Hmm good point on the sdb1 [18:30] django_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/PowerManagement/ThermalIssues [18:31] django_: make sure you got the latest bios version for your laptop. then make sure you got the mattching driver for your gpu and the intel microcode in the prop. drivers tab. [18:32] lotuspsychje, should i change the config? [18:33] django_: try what k1l_ suggest first, before you start modifying things [18:33] gpu means graphics card right [18:33] yes [18:34] yeah i have that updated [18:34] django_: bios also? [18:35] not sure [18:35] hello [18:36] i need help installing ubuntu 14.04.4 on asus k53sv with nvidia graphics [18:36] using live boot [18:36] django_: you can check your motherboard/laptop brand website for latest bios updates === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [18:36] gj: What version of windows did it come with?

[18:37] i have tried several times [18:37] got to a white/gray screen [18:37] motaka2, very good... thanx and you ? ^_^ [18:37] tried nomodest [18:37] and acpi off [18:37] gj: Install from the mini.iso and then sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [18:37] ioria: I am fine too thanks. Do you where TJ- is? Is he fine? [18:38] aq2 [18:38] how do i do that [18:38] gj: what graphics card chipset?

Write it to a cd or usb stick and boot from it. [18:39] gj: Go through the setup, reboot, login and type the command i told you to type. [18:39] what about the full iso [18:39] ioria: cool, do you rember that old pc on which I installed ubuntu 14.04 with your help ? [18:39] gj: The mini.iso only comes what's required for a text-based install [18:39] motaka2, sure [18:39] gj: So you'll end up with nothing but a console to type into, then you can install a new kernel and then the desktop [18:40] ioria: I have no windows on it, in that case does installing a VM useful for me? [18:40] can u use virtual drive .. m out of dvd to burn it and its too late at night [18:40] wanted to get it done tonight [18:40] motaka2, well, it depends on your ram and your cpu .... [18:41] ioria: 3Gb of DDR2 RAM and 3600dual core cpu, 100GB of hard [18:42] open temrinal with login shel' vs non login shell [18:42] motaka2, cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "model name" [18:43] ioria: model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3600+ [18:43] model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3600+ [18:43] gj: You can use a usb stick. [18:43] motaka2, yes, you can use virtual box [18:43] i already have a full iso [18:44] is there no solution with that [18:44] ioria: what can i do with a vm like that as a php programmer? [18:44] gj: Nothing that i can think of, maybe someone else comes up with an idea first. [18:44] ok thanks [18:44] gj: Graphics card manufacturers don't support Linux so you don't always get things done in time :) [18:44] motaka2, you can use php on linux and on MS .... [18:44] don't support Linux that well [18:45] ive been using windows on this pc for 5 years .. [18:45] motaka2, usually VM is alternative to dual boot ... [18:45] ioria: first I have to have windows then I should install VM ? [18:45] aq2: never installed ubuntu myself [18:46] motaka2, you need the Windows medium , yes [18:46] gj: On a well-compatible computer like Dell or Lenovo Thinksomething its a lot easier [18:46] ok [18:46] motaka2, you install virtualbox, then configure it, then start the installation with the win disk [18:47] aq2: minimal is bit expert to install, maybe tell him that too? [18:47] anyone using ubuntu with asus [18:47] lotuspsychje: Thats correct, good idea [18:48] Then again, the ubuntu desktop is all in one package [18:48] so its just one command and you have full ubuntu [18:48] ioria: how can I install VB ?

[20:13] cant find me pid [20:13] genii, it seems last time I had this issue, was a year or two back it was much more complicated than that [20:14] I thought you could not only whether the connections were jack and hdmi, on other operating systems simultaneous audio between the front and rear can be done via settings ... at least there is a way to turn off the front so that to hear the audio from rear should not unplug the headphone jack? [20:14] iDeals: Can be, if you have for instance a hardware RAID controller [20:14] william_: try also check your bios, maybe you can change the audio there also [20:14] genii, no using mdadm software raid [20:15] naj Shqiptar [20:16] iDeals: Perhaps pastebin results of: cat /proc/mdstat and: sudo mdadm --detail --scan [20:17] !english | Qprt [20:17] Qprt: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [20:18] genii, /proc/mdstat results: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15190526/ [20:18] How about turn off the rear panel via bios to remove the hassle or see if some access to find a remedy? [20:19] genii, results of scan http://paste.ubuntu.com/15190535/ [20:20] william_: im reading things like change hd audio to ac97 from bios [20:20] william_: maybe look around there what values you can change? [20:22] isn't there some kernel alias package I can try to update to get on the latest kernel? can't think of the name.. [20:23] iDeals: So it looks like the bad one is already gone then? [20:23] I remounted using the two good drives to see if data was still present [20:24] with the help of frostschutz I should say, I'm a noob when it comes to RAID and Ubuntu really [20:24] you can simply choose to turn off the back including USB ports and front audio card, I checked just now that I had other problems with bios settings. [20:25] iDeals: Seems odd that it says entire sdb yet only partition 1 on sdd [20:25] iDeals: Do you remember what drive before was the third one which is now not there? For instance, sdc, or sdc1, or maybe something else [20:26] genii, this might be helpful: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15159650/ [20:27] it is the result of smartctl prior to remounting [20:27] !mainline | Joel [20:27] Joel: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [20:28] lotuspsychje, I'm not after a mainline kernel [20:28] Joel: are you on 14.04? [20:28] k1l_, yes [20:29] !hwe | Joel [20:29] I'm not sure why sdb isnt shown as sdb1 [20:29] Joel: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [20:29] iDeals: Seeing as sdc had all the errors, that would seem to be it [20:29] sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic took care of it for me. [20:29] yeah that was their take on it as well, that it was the problem child [20:30] someone gleaned from that it had been down for 330 hours... not sure how they got that number [20:31] Joel linux-image-generic is just the kernel not the headers , usually is linux-generic to get both , check if you have also the headers [20:31] iDeals: Is that drive physically removed yet from the machine? [20:34] hi [20:34] genii, not yet [20:35] genii, didn't know if I should yank it or if I need it for anything prior. I'm actually not sure if its operational at this point [20:35] I'm guessing probably not [20:37] genii, so sounds like I should shutdown and swap drives? [20:37] iDeals: Do you know which one it is physically in the machine? If not it can be a bit tricky to figure out which one to actually yank [20:37] hola alguien abla en espaniol [20:37] iDeals: If you already know which one, yes, shutdown and pull it [20:37] jajja [20:37] !es | yopi88 [20:37] yopi88: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés.

[21:30] Anyone go to the hackerfest in NYC? [21:30] robin_bnc: i have no idea. [21:31] I should clarify, I'm not having issues with installing the OS itself but it is lagging like crazy (fresh install on a brand new SSD) [21:31] i told jesper_ to come here, i want someone to help him [21:31] its not ubuntu-mate specific [21:31] iDeals: If you use the numbers off that pastebin, it says " [>....................] recovery = 0.0% (90112/1953381888) finish=32538.5min speed=1000K/sec" the "finish=32538.5min" part says right now it estimates 32538 minutes , or around 542 hours. But that number will go down drastically after a while and be more realistic. [21:31] i have to go now. [21:31] byebye [21:31] thanks for sending me here hah [21:31] Is anyone here able to help me? [21:31] iDeals: But regardless, you can use the system as normal, even shut down, it will just continue in the background over many days if needed until the process is done [21:32] okay, awesome... thanks genii! [21:33] Anyone? [21:36] iDeals: Glad to assist :) [21:37] jesper_: what gpu? [21:37] iDeals: You can also occasionally do the: cat /proc/mdstat ...to get an idea of where it's at [21:37] jesper_: might want to try nomodeset [21:37] genii, will do =) [21:37] i have a problem with USB wifi card [21:37] any help [21:37] iDeals: this highlights a major problem with large RAID5 arrays - high chance of 2nd disk failure whilst array rebuilds. Always worth asking yourself if you really need RAID [21:38] i never had any luck with mate performing well on my desktop... runs beautifully in a vm tho [21:38] mcphail, the short answer is no... I do not need it. I'm strongly considering rebuilding my machine after I recover this array [21:39] Gamah: my GPU is Nvidia 970 [21:39] I use my machine largely as a media server and should probably just be backing up vs. worrying about the raid [21:39] jesper_: same for me, even w/ nvidia's blob drivers i never had luck with mate... but you can install the package from a tty [21:40] Yes, for many purposes a simple backup regimen is much better than RAID [21:40] I'm getting guided by someone over at ubuntu-mate and I'm in a tty now [21:41] jesper_: cheers, good luck... if all else fails try lxde, it'll at least likely run alright and give you a gui to poke around in [21:41] hello all. have tried to clone my laptop's drive to my desktop pc using dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdc from a USB bootable drive. but my pc can't see the new boot medium. what gives? [21:42] is your BIOS configured to boot off of that physical drive ? [21:42] jesper_: If I may, We need to know exactly what we are working with ( hybrid graphics ??) . pastebin the terminal output of ' sudo ubuntu-drivers devices | pastebinit ' . Se where we go from there . [21:43] rk4n3: before, my desktop was running kubuntu from that same physical drive. so -- well, it should be.

[21:44] rk4n3: can you clarify? its an ssd which was using the internal sata. to clone the laptop, I took it out and connected it to the laptop using usb [21:45] daniel331: another consideration that comes to mind is that the new disk might not have the same physical attributes as where you copied it from, and so the partition table might not actually be functional [21:45] Bashing-om: I'm using my laptop to write here [21:45] rk4n3: what kind of physical attributes? [21:45] size, for one thing [21:46] also, there's the MBR to consider [21:46] jesper_: pastee.org generates short, easy to type URL's [21:46] ah, yes. they are both 256 gb ssds. I expected them to have dissimilar number of bits, but I think they are actually the exact same size.. :-S [21:46] Gamah: I did not think that far haha, I'll do my best [21:46] jesper_: do note: they are case sensitive [21:47] rk4n3: I think my laptop is booting from the new uefi thing -- not legacy boot. the bios on my pc is... well, its complicated... [21:47] daniel331: so yeah, you had it internally which shows up one way in the BIOS, and is selected to boot from there ... and then you moved it to USB which shows up differently in BIOS and may not be selected to boot from [21:47] hello, i'm trying to create USB Live CD fro a ISO with mkusb... but I always get this error --> No disk-name string found in the iso-file [21:48] but rk4n3: now the cloning has finished, its plugged back into the pc using isata -- just like it was before. would that still make a difference?

[21:51] daniel331: it also occurs to me that your system's current eufi boot setup has stuff written to the disk that is specific to the device it resides as, and may require some changes to boot as a different device [21:51] I see [21:52] i.e. a disk set up to boot as /dev/sda may not boot as a copy on /dev/sdc [21:52] ... until you update the eufi boot stuff on disk to reflect so [21:53] if you where to remove the original from the system (i.e. unplug it) and make sure the new copy takes its place, that might help [21:53] daniel331: do you have a live usb? [21:53] eric: yes, thats the environment I was booted in when I tried to clone :-) [21:53] rk4n3: I cant open my laptop im afraid [21:55] jesper_: K; single Nvida GPU .. with the 352 version driver suggested ...

[22:15] jesper_: I am on a bit of a quandry what to advise . 352 drivers have limited vdpau decoding support relative to your gpu ; how do you feel about a PPA for your driver, and install the 361 version ? [22:15] Where could be the issue ? [22:15] Bashing-om: All I really care about is being able to use it at all, I'm lagging way to hard to even browse the web, I can't even open applications haha [22:17] Bashing-om: I can rephrase that, whichever is the best for me to play Counter-strike :) [22:17] jesper_: K. mond ypu we are makeing a bold attempt .. that " (EE) Unknown chipset: NV124 " is still on my mind . Have you installed from PPA before ? do you need guidance ? see : https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa . [22:18] Niilos, you don't have a hardware on/off switch for the wifi on your machine by any chance? [22:18] Niilos, or a key combo to go into airplane mode? [22:20] ouroumov__, I have a fn+f3 combo to enable wifi but it have no effect. The wifi led is off and network-manager don’t display a wifi interface. [22:23] Niilos, can you run the command: lshw -C network | nc termbin.com 9999 [22:23] Bashing-om: I'm afraid I'm worse than I had hoped, I started a benchmark instead of adding the PPA :) [22:24] Niilos, that's assuming you have a network connection though [22:24] I did it. [22:24] (And that you're not talking to us on a different machine) [22:25] Niilos, can you give the url? [22:25] jesper_: No hurry about installing the Graphic's driver . Messing about with the system is a thing of patience . [22:26] Bashing-om: I'm downloading things which are multiple gigabytes instead of installing a driver haha, it just seems pointless to me currently [22:26] I’m looking for it... [22:27] The command should give you the URL as output [22:27] Provided the machine you're running it on has a network connection [22:28] jesper_: As to gaming .. I do feel the better to go with the driver that Nvidia recommends - 361 . Got to get that driver from outside sources ( yuk) , See: http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/98373/en-us . [22:28] It just output "Use netcat." [22:28] ok got it [22:28] Niilos, can you run the command: lshw -C network | netcat termbin.com 9999 === daniel331_ is now known as daniel331 [22:28] My only problem with getting that driver is that the UI is lagging to hard for me to utilize my browser, I think I should start by reinstalling another version (14.04) which ouroumov__ suggested [22:29] Nah jesper_ [22:29] If it lags, switch back to tty1 and kill stuff like earlier [22:29] Installing a ppa should be doable from the command line [22:29] my journald has been pegging almost 100%....when i type in "sudo journalctl" im getting thousands of messages in the last hour or so, with "gnome-session" throwing the messages "24/02/2016 01:05:24 PM some_random_ip" [22:29] whats this mean? [22:30] But I still don't think that the UI should be broken normally? I'm missing several icons on the UI alone [22:30] does this mean someone is attacking my gnome-session? [22:30] like 100s of IPs [22:30] ouroumov__, it doesn’t output a url [22:30] Feb 24 13:05:24 computername gnome-session[6932]: 24/02/2016 01:05:24 PM 82.223.8.50 [22:30] jesper_: With hybrid graphics and a GTX970 suggest you have the hardware to run anything you like for a desktop . [22:31] Bashing-om: That's what I was hoping but oh well, it might just be that the ISO I used to install with was broken from the beginning [22:32] !md5sum | jesper_ [22:32] jesper_: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [22:32] Bashing-om: But that doesn't support the fact that it worked perfectly in my VM [22:33] jesper_: Hang with us, and if we can not get it working, we will know the reason why . [22:33] I will do that then, btw - when I tried running the benchmark it didn't find any display server [22:33] http://termbin.com/w6vd [22:34] I used a temp file ^^ [22:35] jesper_: Maybe understanable as no driver for Nvidia is loaded . Let's verify the .iso. confirm the copy is good, and then attempt to install the Nvidia driver from the PPA . - My thoughts - . [22:36] any official ubuntu staff here .. for help on SSO [22:36] I have no way to verify the ISO atm, I removed that SSD from the computer to add my new SSD instead [22:36] so any thoughts on why my gnome-session is barking out all those IPs? are they connectiona trempts? [22:37] admin0: Might get better help for SSO in #ubuntuforumms . [22:37] Niilos, google for BCM4313 problems on Ubuntu [22:38] Ehm, I downloaded the latest nvidia drivers from their website but I don't have any way to run them (they are .run files) [22:38] Niilos, this seems relevant: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2197693 [22:38] jesper_: All I can say is that a firm foundation is desirable . To KNOW all is ducky . [22:38] EriC^^: yes /away [22:38] Logicwax: I'm curious - what is your IP address (is it a local or public), and what are the IP addresses being logged ? [22:38] Logicwax: I don't need to know them specifically, but just the nature of them [22:38] jesper_: OEM install is a means of last resort .. let us not go there . [22:38] r4z3r: IP is local to my LAN...but is the DMZ host. [22:39] EriC^^: i got it, just /away [22:39] Bashing-om: It just wants to open in pluma [22:39] brings us back [22:39] r4z3r: fromm all over....hundreds of IPs....from .ru .nl [22:39] r4z3r: are those login attempts? [22:39] Logicwax: when you say "local on your LAN, but DMZ" does that mean that your LAN segment is public-addressable ? [22:39] yes [22:40] Niilos, fwiw, sudo lshw -C network | nc termbin.com 9999 (even when using sudo) barfs here too (14.04.4) might want to consider installing pastebinit from the repo's. then use the following command sudo lshw -C network | pastebinit [22:40] rk4n3: correct. this machine faces the world [22:40] well, that would seem to be your problem them - yes, I'd say its at the very least port scans of your box [22:40] Logicwax: I highly suggest you firewall that off [22:41] rk4n3: so are those lines connection attemtps to my gnome? [22:41] rk4n3: cant i just firewall off the gnome port? why is that port assessible to non-localhost? [22:41] Logicwax: well, for sure you're being port-scanned for open ports, and some of them may be trying to actually attack the open port when they see it [22:42] Logicwax: I can't speak as to why that port would be open, but I'd recommend at least a local firewall rule to close it, if it needs to stay open locally for some reason [22:42] rk4n3: but what im asking is what that message from gnome-session is trying to say [22:43] rk4n3: its not very verbose. is gnome-session saying "hey someone tried to login from IP" [22:43] Logicwax: sorry, I can't be sure - it may be that gdm is accepting login attempts ? [22:43] I tried to install linux-firmware-nonfree. I don’t know if it is because of the "dpkh --configure -a" or the package install but I jurt got my wifi back ! [22:44] Thanks you very much :) [22:44] great [22:44] Logicwax: maybe try a "netstat -a | grep -i listen" to see what processes might be listening [22:44] let's hope it sticks ^^ [22:44] Logicwax: if you see something gnome-related listening, that could be a clue [22:45] how do I find out if my computer uses uefi or not? [22:45] I keep the command on a memo just in case ^^ [22:45] (this is in the context of not being able to boot) [22:45] Bashing-om: http://imgur.com/gallery/0clvNUV - I hope I am allowed to link to picutre [22:45] Have a nice day ! [22:45] r4z3r: nope, i dont [22:45] daniel331: boot into the bios and check if legacy mode is enabled [22:46] daniel331: boot a live usb and stuff will become way more obvious [22:46] eric: my bios doesnt seem to have such a setting [22:46] Im about to install a new grfx card in my ubuntu machine. it's the same manufacturer Nvidia, if I just update the drivers should everything go smoothly or? [22:46] i just wish there was some documentation on what gnome-session is trying to say. if its saying "login attempt from this IP" or what the hell its saying [22:46] maybe it's just bios then with no uefi [22:46] daniel331: how old is the pc? [22:47] eric: im not sure how old it is, I found it on freecycle [22:47] like pre 2004? [22:47] doubtful. its an hp proliant ml350 g6 [22:47] it probably has uefi then [22:48] daniel331: you had a hdd with ubuntu, and it was booting fine and you used dd to clone it and replaced the old one with the cloned hdd? [22:48] thats what I thought. but in bios, there is no mention of the term bios either. nor of the term uefi. instead, everything refers to rbsu -- rom-based setup utility :-S [22:48] jesper_: I say again, we do not want to go with the Nvidia OEM install . Problamatic to maintain and also, Nvidia does not know ubuntu near as well as those who maintain the PPA driver site . [22:48] eric: thats correct, yes [22:49] so I thought maybe laptop uses uefi but pc cant understand uefi... but the pc seems too new for that... [22:49] daniel331: Are you able to boot from a LiveDVD/USB? [22:49] daniel331: ^ [22:49] Bashing-om: I understand, can you take a look at my picture and see that there's something wrong? Like the missing icons and such [22:50] jordan_u: I will check after I double-check the cables ;-) [22:50] daniel331: try pressing esc and then go to boot options [22:50] ( f9 maybe ) [22:50] and see if you get any mention of uefi or "boot from efi file" [22:51] Im about to install a new grfx card in my ubuntu machine. it's the same manufacturer Nvidia, if I just update the drivers should everything go smoothly or? [22:51] going from GT 550 to GTX 590 (recycling parts) [22:52] daniel331: If you do get a LiveCD/USB booted then the following will tell you if you're booted via UEFI: "[ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS" [22:52] jesper_: 1) I have never seen the Mate desk top, so would not know what to expect, 2) with no graphics driver I would expect all kinds of diaplay problems . [22:52] Logicwax: do you have vino or any other remote desktop solution set up at all ? [22:52] Ender_Wiggin: what drivers you on? Anything fairly up to date and you'll be fine [22:52] What exactly is Juju? Everytime I read the description it just seems a bunch of marketing [22:53] nidnar not sure how can i check in terminal? [22:53] i use the auto software updater regularly, not sure if that picks up GPU drivers though [22:53] Bashing-om: Okay, do you have any link to a step-by-step guide I can use to install the ppa drivers? This doesn't really have that from what I can tell - sorry for the inconvinience [22:53] Is Juju basically GUI to build a container? [22:53] inconvenience* [22:54] Ender_Wiggin: Simplest thing to do would be to uninstall any Nvidia proprietary drivers via the "Additional Drivers" tool, swap your GPU, then enable the recommended Nvidia proprietary drivers again. [22:54] using 304.131 [22:54] hey people dude thingy [22:54] Jordan_U: that is simple?!?! Uninstall and reinstall? lol [22:54] wuzz shakin backon [22:55] im on a kewl computer and stuff [22:55] so older but not crazy old [22:55] :P [22:55] can someone tell me the goal of this chatroom [22:55] 2015 update seems like [22:55] oh nvm [22:56] jesper_: Working 'buntu is never an inconvinience . in : https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa follow the direction in " Adding this PPA to your system" -> read about installing . If there is a problem we will work through it . [22:56] nidnar: I find it very simple, yes. I'm not proposing re-installing the OS; It's just a few clicks and meanst that you don't have to worry about which Nvidia driver supports which of your two cards. [22:56] s/meanst/means/ [22:57] Bashing-om: deb: command not found === GarrettShields_ is now known as GarrettShields [22:58] oh, where are my systems software sources? Bashing-om [22:59] jesper_: Sorta lost me .. the " add-apt-repository " command will automagically add the entry . [23:00] Bashing-om: Sorry, I'm fairly lost myself - I'll try to follow exactly what it says before I ask anything again haha, sorry again [23:01] jesper_, /etc/apt/sources.list [23:02] jesper_: Not a problem to ask ... I could tell ya exactly .. but better if you know what you are doing and why . Process of learning and I expect you will be with us for the long haul . [23:03] It seems I already added them before but I didn't receive an output so I was confused, I have the deb line added to my sources now [23:04] Bashing-om: What is the next step? I don't see it anywhere on that site [23:04] jesper_: Great, and now ya know to ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo apt install nvidia-361 ' . let's see what happens . [23:06] Bashing-om: On it's way! Is there any way to see what desktop I'm using btw? I believe I'm using gnome but I'm not sure [23:06] argh, bad wifi in my room. [23:07] jesper_: Sure, all in knowing what to ask of the sytem ' echo $DESKTOP_SESSION " " $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP ' . [23:07] right, so this is interesting. there's an option in my bios thing for boot disk test. it says: "Boot disk status: Pass - Disk present. Boot disk ready: pass - disk ready. Verify boot sector: Pass - valid os boot sector present." -- thats without the usb key, just the (not-bootable) drive [23:08] also, on the startup screen, the bios says "Port 2: Detected Sandisk drive" which is the name of the ssd and the port it is plugged in to [23:08] jesper_, earlier you were using MATE [23:08] and I can boot just fine into usb boot medium... except its frozen on the loading screen [23:08] Haha, I am using MATE - didn't quite think that one through [23:08] jesper_: away for a bit .. be back on-channel soonest . [23:08] Bashing-om: It is now installed, what's the next step [23:09] daniel331__: Have you tried booting from LiveCD/USB yet? [23:09] I'm trying to use VLC to play a DVD, but everytime I press play, it loads up for half a second and then goes back to no playlist. [23:09] Okay, I'll avert my attention to ouroumov__ if you are willing to help? haha [23:09] (again) [23:09] options on the one-time boot override menu are: "One time boot to C:, one time boot to cdrom, one time boot to pxe, one-time boot to usb key, or enter rom-based setup utility" [23:09] jordan_u: just booting the usb disk now [23:09] ouroumov__: the nvidia driver is now installed and I suppose I should reboot the system? [23:10] Yes [23:10] Hopefully that'll fix it [23:10] You can reboot from the command line using "sudo reboot" [23:10] I did not know that, good to know haha [23:11] oliver [23:11] jesper_: If the driver installed .. well let's see what happens after a reboot . If problems then we start investiaging the why .( by the way learning to use mvidia-prime to switch graphics sets is another learning curve ) . [23:11] (With a stuck GUI that'll be easier) [23:12] Yeah, it didn't want to reboot when I went via the GUI - it just didn't want me to hit the "x" that was supposed to be the power-button icon [23:12] hmm the gui on the usb boot environment seems to have crashed. whats the default username and password? [23:12] It is not the fastest at rebooting it seems [23:13] daniel331__: Username "ubuntu", password "" (Nothing, just hit Enter). [23:14] gotcha [23:14] right [23:14] well it looks like the usb key booted using bios this time (not uefi) [23:14] damn [23:14] Bashing-om: I'm not getting any signal to my monitors (after it rebooted and loaded) [23:14] !bootinfo | daniel331__ [23:14] daniel331__: Boot info script is a useful script for diagnosing boot problems. Please run the script following the directions here: http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ and then !pastebin the RESULTS.txt for us to use to help diagnose your problem. [23:14] could that just be legacy emulation mode? [23:14] Ubuntu documentation says to install libdvdcss2, but it is not in the repositories. [23:15] skinux: libdvdread4 [23:15] !dvd | skinux [23:15] skinux: Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons. For information on adding them, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | For information on the legalities involved, see the "DVD" section of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [23:16] skinux: and after that run "sudo sh /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh " [23:16] Bashing-om: I'm literally not getting anything from my computer atm, just doesn't do anything whatever I press [23:17] My computer just went completely unresponsive except for the mouse cursor. Ctrl-alt-fX vt switching and the ssh server don't seem to be working either. I'm on my phone right now. [23:17] I'm using the xubuntu desktop packages [23:17] daniel331__: And actually, if it's not too difficult for you to figure out how to do, please use this newer version of boot info script: https://github.com/arvidjaar/bootinfoscript . [23:18] jesper_: Bios ? do you see the bios spalsh screen ? Did you disable anything graphic's related in bios ? [23:18] Thanks. Got my video playing [23:18] Bashing-om: I saw the bios splash screen and I saw Ubuntu loading up and then it all went black [23:18] Bashing-om: and my monitors are indicating that they're not getting a signal from the computer [23:19] jesper_, can't even switch to tty1? [23:19] jesper_: K; .. next step up is can you boot to the grub boot menu at this point ? [23:19] jordan_u: much easier than using the sourceforge link ;-) [23:20] ouroumov__: I can't switch to tty1 [23:21] jordan_u: output: pastebin.com/15191825 [23:21] please help [23:21] Bashing-om: I just noticed that Ubuntu doesn't load fully, there's only 1 segment loaded and then it shuts down [23:21] E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, E:Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/id.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_trusty_main_i18n_Translation-en%%5fUS, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened. [23:21] I mean: paste.ubuntu.com/15191825 [23:22] is there [23:22] Bashing-om: I'm starting to think that there's no way for me to continue from here except for re-installing ubuntu and trying again? [23:22] is there a way to unfreeze it, or if I force a reboot where should I look in the logs to get an idea of what happened? [23:22] Bashing-om: I can't get the grub menu to come up (I tried pressing c during the entire startup) [23:23] jesper_: Ouch ... now that does not seem to be graphic's releated ... able to boot to grub ? .. and confirm please this is a 15.10 release . [23:23] daniel331__: "This page has been removed! [23:23] jordan_u: try paste.ubuntu.com/15191825 [23:23] This is the 15.04 release if I remember correctly [23:23] Bashing-om: [23:23] (my bad for assuming pastebinit used pastebin) [23:24] daniel331__: looks like you have an efi install [23:24] eric: yes, my laptop uses uefi [23:24] did you try pressing esc then f9 or boot options when the pc boots? [23:24] jesper_: OH ! IF this is 15.04 ... that expalind everything ! as 15.04 is End_Of_Life ! It has no support ! [23:24] anybody help., [23:24] no i mean the actual install is in uefi mode daniel331__ [23:25] Bashing-om: Then I'll download and install 15.10 in that case [23:25] eric: yes,this is the clone of my laptop's drive [23:25] !15.04 | jesper_ [23:25] jesper_: Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) was the 22nd release of Ubuntu. Support ended on February 4, 2016. See !eol, !eolupgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/vivid [23:25] yeah, so setting to legacy wont work at all daniel331__ [23:25] You should go with the 14.04 iso you were loading earlier jesper_ [23:25] daniel331__: type sudo efibootmgr -v and paste bin it please [23:25] ouroumov__: Then I will do that [23:25] ( install the package if it's not installed already ) [23:26] eric: it says "EFI variables are not supported on this system" [23:26] jesper_: Yeah for 15.10 ... I think 15.10 does have support for the Nvidia 361 driver ! [23:26] daniel331__: that means you're booted in legacy mode on the live usb [23:27] yes, I am [23:27] jesper_, or what he said [23:27] daniel331__: here's what you can do, reboot the pc, press esc a couple times, when you get a menu look for boot options ( might be f9 ) press it and if you get a boot from efi file go to efi/ubuntu/shimx64.efi or grubx64.efi [23:27] daniel331__: 1 sec though [23:27] hi [23:27] test [23:28] try sudo modprobe efivars === Arejano is now known as Czernobog [23:28] exit [23:28] eric: no output from modprobe efivars [23:28] ouroumov__: I tried installing 14.04.2 just now but it didn't find my boot image on my USB so I'm going to re-try and if it fails again try with 15.10 [23:28] daniel331__: ok, try sudo efibootmgr -v again [23:28] eric: same output. good thinking tho ;-) [23:29] !md5sum | jesper_ Remember [23:29] jesper_ Remember: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [23:29] daniel331__: :D [23:29] i cant connect to my vpn when my firewall is enabled yet port 1735 is open for pptp??? [23:29] daniel331__: ok, reboot the pc and try esc [23:29] if that doesn't work try booting in uefi mode on the live usb [23:30] I think the ml350 g6 series might be bios based after all... :-( :-S [23:30] daniel331__: i thought the install was working before cloning on the same laptop? [23:30] daniel331__: If it is indeed BIOS based you can still fairly easily reconfigure your installation to boot via BIOS. [23:30] eric: laptop is uefi, and I'm cloning it to my desktop pc [23:31] daniel331__: aha [23:31] ooh ooh ooh jordan_u really? thats made my day. how do I do that? [23:31] nd girls === anonymous is now known as Guest49714 [23:31] have anyone has problem with a update last days? [23:32] Bashing-om: md5sum check [23:32] Guest40841: such as? [23:32] hi [23:32] guys and girls? [23:33] anonymous_: Do you have an Ubuntu support question? [23:33] have anyone also have had problem with update ubuntu mate? [23:33] I just installed ubuntu 15.10 i386 on this laptop, and it is not even showing my USB thumb drive. [23:33] daniel331__: First you need to create a BIOS Boot Partition. I would recommend using GParted to make your EFI System Partition one MiB smaller then create the 1 MiB BIOS Boot Partition in this new free space. To create a BBP just create a new unformatted partition and give it the "bios_grub" flag in Gparted. [23:34] when i plug it in, it is not showing up in files. [23:34] anonymous_: what error? [23:34] jordan_u, thats amazing, I will do that, thank you [23:34] was running mate a long time like 3 or 4 days got an update and suddenly it stopped working [23:35] daniel331__: Then follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#via_ChRoot to install grub for BIOS. Note that you may need to "apt-get install grub-pc" once you enter the chroot as it's likely not currently installed. [23:35] Bashing-om: Another question before I install, do I go for "USBdevice" or "UEFI: USBdevice"? [23:36] daniel331__: you'll need to decrypt the partition before mounting stuff first btw [23:36] anonymous_: "lsb_release -d" brings what output? [23:36] jesper_: Great, going to clear my slate and we pick this back up on the other side with 15.10 install IF there are any problems .// I recommend UEFI ... much improved interface ! [23:36] daniel331__: and you can remove /boot/efi from /etc/fstab if you want [23:36] i installed everything a new again [23:36] daniel331__: After that, for clarity, you should probably comment out the entry for /boot/efi/ in your /etc/fstab, but having /boot/efi/ mounted shouldn't cause any problems (other than confusing humans that wonder why it exists on a BIOS based machine). [23:36] !UEFI | jesper_ [23:36] jesper_: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [23:37] but windows cannot interfere with ubuntu right? [23:38] anyhow Mate is Da Best! [23:38] Peace [23:38] I NEED HELP [23:38] Bashing-om: I was really just wondering if there would be any problems or such if I went with the standard one when I have UEFI on my motherboard [23:39] cherub: with what? [23:39] cherub: welcome to the club! [23:39] jordan_u: right, okay, so, bearing in mind I am also using luks "whole disk encryption" (on sda3), I have two partitions I could resize. sda1 is 210MB 'EFI System' recognised as FAT16; sda2 is 'Linux Filesystem' recognised as Ext4... I know you said to just resize the EFI one, but im not sure why I even have two... [23:39] ... and I suppose it doesnt mater after this that the whole disk is partitioned using a GUID partition table? [23:39] jesper_: Either will work ,, for furure, UEFI will be best . [23:39] sda2 is 524mb btw [23:40] EriC^^: I just installed ubuntu 15.10, and it is not showing any usb devices when I plug them in. [23:40] cherub: type dmesg in a terminal [23:40] look for usb errors [23:40] cherub, not even on dmesg? [23:40] jesper_: Hey, a thought .. dual boot ing ? Then 'buntu must be installed in same mode as Windows ! [23:40] i didn't know to do dmesg. [23:40] I guess the 524mb volume is /boot [23:41] and I guess it doesnt matter which I resize [23:41] daniel331__: You have two because one was for /boot/efi/, your EFI System Partition, and the other was for /boot/ which needs its own unencrypted partition when you're encrypting your root filesystem (technically it's not needed, but not having an unencrypted /boot/ just leads to issues without any advantage). [23:41] Bashing-om: I'm not dualbooting luckily, I'm wanted to use Ubuntu as my one and only OS [23:41] I don't even know what I'm looking for. [23:41] jordan_u: gotcha, thanks for clarifying that [23:42] daniel331__: You're welcome. [23:42] jesper_: Then will not matter presently if install is legacy or UEFI .. but for the long term .. install as UEFI . [23:43] clear [23:43] cherub, dmesg | grep usb [23:43] yeah I know. [23:43] Bashing-om: currently doing that! which application would be the easiest to wipe all my other drives with btw? [23:44] Im having samba issues and think its related to this..all my users/permissions match up [23:44] chdir (/mnt/zfspool/Skydog) failed, reason: Permission denied [23:44] [2016/02/24 15:42:55.808450, 3] ../source3/smbd/error.c:82(error_packet_set) NT error packet at ../source3/smbd/process.c(1525) cmd=50 (SMBtrans2) NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED [23:44] sort of explains similar issue here http://linux.m2osw.com/cannot-log-user-samba [23:44] jesper_: The installer will do that if ya happy with the default install .. else there is good ole GParted ... or my favorite 'dd' to wipe a drive . [23:45] Bashing-om: the default install only wipes my main drive, not my other ones. I'll look at GParted in that case [23:45] friggin annoying-ass subway wifi. [23:46] cherub_: reminds me of louis ck where people are complaining about having wifi on the plane being slow [23:46] jesper_: My thought only, as this is a problematic install . how about the default install .. let the wizard do it's thing ? [23:46] you're 30000 feet in the air! [23:46] sta7ic: no I mean a subway restaurant. [23:47] jesper_: Why wipe out the other drives ? [23:47] Hi ubuntu community :) [23:47] I need help. Somehow during phpMyAdmin config I messed up MySQL root password. Now I can't do anything with it. [23:47] I tried removing and reinstalling mysql-server, but that didn't help. [23:47] daniel331__: I'll be mostly away for 30 minutes to 5 hours :) [23:47] Oh, wait, should i have done 'purge mysql-server-5.5' ? [23:47] Bashing-om: The other drives have nothing useful on it, just old windows things from my previous install - just wanted a clean slate for my Ubuntu installation. The default installation is what I'm currently running [23:48] any samba experts here? [23:48] thanks for your help jordan_u. before you go, is it a problem that the driver descriptor says the physical block size is 2048 bytes but linux says it is 512 bytes? [23:48] Bashing-om: on them [23:48] Bashing-om: on them** [23:48] sta7ic, did you add the user you are trying to login with smbpasswd -a "user"? === Surendil_ is now known as Surendil [23:49] skinux: You might instead want to look at the "unixlike" section of http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/resetting-permissions.html [23:49] I already solved it by purging [23:49] Bashing-om: Right from the get-go I have an error.. "THe application MATE Settings Daemon has closed unexpectedly." [23:50] jesper_: When I want to start all over with a drive I use 'dd' to zero out a drive . But be real cautious with 'dd' . It does what is told even if it is not what you intended . [23:50] Bashing-om: The icons on the desktop are missing as well, the same goes for the menu icon and the power icon [23:51] Bashing-om: And the lag is also there with the mouse-movement [23:52] jesper_: This on a fresh install of 15.10 ? what results when booting with the 'nomodeset' boot parameter ? [23:52] Bashing-om: I don't know how to boot with those parameters, or any parameters for that matter [23:52] Bashing-om: and yes, this is a fresh install [23:53] !nomodeset | jesper_ Part of the learning curve [23:53] jesper_ Part of the learning curve: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [23:54] jesper_: Lemme check that link and make sure it is applicable to systemd in 15.10 . [23:56] Hello, this is my first time here [23:56] I just got Ubuntu and I really like it so far [23:56] Bashing-om: It doesn't seem to work for me, the first command does nothing [23:57] I'm having issues regarding nvidia proprietary driver [23:57] 304XX version leads to mouse problems making it unclickable [23:58] can anyone recommend a good site for learning the command line? [23:58] 340XX version makes the system freeze after few seconds [23:59] !shell | joseph_ [23:59] joseph_: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful.
