| jesper_ | Bashing-om: It lists my installation as 15.04 but I downloaded and md5summed 15.10, this is weird | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| k1l_ | jesper_: what says "lsb_release -d"? | 00:01 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: Command not found | 00:02 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: wait, spelled it wrong | 00:02 |
| jesper_ | It says Ubuntu 15.04 which is weird since all I have is 15.10 on my USB-drive | 00:02 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: k1l_ and Jordan_U Are all old hands at this, great they look over our shoulders . | 00:03 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Could I be making a mistake with the installation entirely? | 00:03 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: and that's why I'm getting these weird errors and crashes? | 00:04 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: That begs the question ,, are you booting the USB or booting the install on the hard drive ? | 00:04 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: I'm booting from the SSD after I boot from the installation media | 00:04 |
| jesper_ | I'll try re-installing, I hope you've got time to spare Bashing-om haha - sorry for all the problems | 00:05 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Real tough to do that .. What you have set in the UEFI settings is what will boot . Rither the USB OR the SSD. not both . | 00:05 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: We have the time .. help is what we do . | 00:06 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: I mean at first when I boot I use something on my motherboard called "Boot override" and that is what I use to boot the installation media (my USB) and after that I use my SSD - which I now see might be the wrong ssd... | 00:07 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: can you pastebin a "sudo parted -l" and a "mount" | 00:08 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: What we are going to do is boot that SSD. the USB drive should be removed and not a part of this equation . | 00:08 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: That's what I'm trying now, k1l_ I'll do that when I've re-installed it and not booted from anything but my main SSD | 00:09 |
| salamanderrake | how do I get ubuntu/unity to stop using the super key | 00:09 |
| xangua | salamanderrake: easier to use another desktop | 00:10 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: I don't think it's booting from the USB after I've installed. I think it's booting one of my VMs if that's even possible because I know I have 15.04 installed as a VM, going to try and wipe all my other drives and then install | 00:10 |
| dlam | is there a thing to show additionally show UTC date in the top right of the desktop? | 00:11 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: When asked now how I wanted to install it - it asked if I wanted to install 15.04 along 15.04.. I don't understand why.. I double-checked and I have 15.10 on my USB | 00:12 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: K .. Might I suggest that you read the manual and learn how your EFI interface works ? Mind you every manufacturer implements the interface different . | 00:12 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Is there a reason you want Mate as the desktop ? Let me see if I can find a download link for 15.10 Mate then . | 00:14 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: The only reason is that I think it looks good from the get go | 00:15 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: 'buntu ! all about choice . Ok .. os this the link you are using to download : https://ubuntu-mate.org/wily/ ? | 00:17 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Yes, that is where I downloaded it | 00:17 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Could you tell me the correct partitioning for my SSD? I have a 240GB SSD and I do not want to use any SWAP partition, sorry if this is a bothersome question | 00:18 |
| ouroumov__ | jesper_, you have to have a swap | 00:18 |
| === gms is now known as Guest23938 | ||
| jesper_ | ouroumov__: why is that? | 00:19 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: do you want to use hibternation? | 00:19 |
| ouroumov__ | Linux requirement I think, I've never tried but I doubt you can even install without a SWAP partition | 00:19 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: not relaly | 00:19 |
| jesper_ | really* | 00:19 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: how much ram you got? | 00:19 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: 16GB | 00:19 |
| frostschutz | if you have enough ram and don't hibernate, you don't need swap | 00:19 |
| k1l_ | ouroumov__: you can | 00:19 |
| ouroumov__ | Seriously? | 00:19 |
| ouroumov__ | Okay | 00:20 |
| jesper_ | ouroumov__: I'm certain I've installed VM's without swap before | 00:20 |
| ouroumov__ | I need to go re-learn some things | 00:20 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: ok. than you can go without a swap. but you cant use hibernation then. (except you would make a swapfile....) | 00:20 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Again back to " < k1l_> jesper_: can you pastebin a "sudo parted -l" and a "mount" -- we see what it is that we are working with . | 00:20 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Can I do that whilst installing Ubuntu? | 00:20 |
| Maimster | How's everyone doing tonight? | 00:21 |
| daniel331__ | hey, you know what? | 00:21 |
| daniel331__ | you guys rule | 00:21 |
| daniel331__ | goodnight everyone | 00:22 |
| Maimster | daniel331__ Goodnight | 00:22 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: No, but from the liveUSB you can provide what we are looking for . Else only a matter of minutes to await this new fresh install IF you are certain that it is 15.10 and that the md5sum matches . | 00:22 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Then I will try my best to do that | 00:23 |
| JadesDJ | a long time ago they talked about the "cube" in ubuntu...is it still possible? | 00:26 |
| k1l_ | JadesDJ: see the ccsm: compiz config settings manager | 00:26 |
| JadesDJ | ah, ok | 00:27 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Can I install pastebin on a liveUSB? | 00:27 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15192354 | 00:29 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: | 00:29 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Yeah .. can install pastebin, but will not persist a reboot . at this time i am looking to find the Mate15.10 md5sum got kinda hung up on downloads . Bear with me . | 00:29 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Weirdly enough the power button is actually there now, not just a missing image.. The menu is still gone though | 00:31 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Quite the system . 4 hard drives .. with 'buntu to be installed to the 1st drive -sda- / the other 3 are Windows . | 00:31 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Yeah, 2 ssds, 1 hard drive and 1 external drive. It says install ubuntu mate 15.04 on the installation icon... | 00:33 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Then that is a 15.04 install ... let my download complete and I check the md5sum and we continue . | 00:34 |
| JadesDJ | by the way...can i slap the new desktop on the older Warty-distro? | 00:34 |
| JadesDJ | no..? | 00:34 |
| LEPTOSPIRA | Hi folks, I need some help with bash scripting. I am new to this. | 00:35 |
| k1l_ | JadesDJ: warty? really? | 00:35 |
| Bashing-om | JadesDJ: I Highly doubt it ! That old release would not have the GTK support of the modern desk tops . | 00:35 |
| LEPTOSPIRA | I want a script that will play in cvlc a random album from my music directory. This is what I have so far: find "${MUSICDIR}" -follow -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d | shuf | head -n1 | (read RANDALBUM; find "$RANDALBUM" -maxdepth 2 -mindepth 2 -exec vlc {} + | sort) | 00:35 |
| JadesDJ | k1l_: yes...i mean, why not? | 00:35 |
| LEPTOSPIRA | The problem is that the songs are not sorted in their track order. I don't know how to combine -exec with sort | 00:36 |
| LEPTOSPIRA | Any ideas? | 00:36 |
| JadesDJ | besides, i like to experiment with stuff | 00:36 |
| k1l_ | JadesDJ: because everything. missing all libs needed. | 00:36 |
| c0fe | Can Juju be used to deploy containers? | 00:36 |
| c0fe | Or is it just for cloud management | 00:36 |
| k1l_ | c0fe: its for cloud, iirc | 00:37 |
| c0fe | i see that's unfortunate | 00:37 |
| ouroumov__ | LEPTOSPIRA, find "$RANDALBUM" -maxdepth 2 -mindepth 2 | sort | xargs -I I vlc "I" ? | 00:37 |

| ouroumov__ | cool | 00:42 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: OK, I have a 15.10 Mate md5sum .. show us what your result is and we compare . | 00:44 |

| shubi | hallo, when i shut-down my ubuntu 14.04.4 it freezes and doesnt shutdown, happened also with suspend. | 00:45 |
| Pantsu | enjoy it blowing up if you have a music file with a space in the name | 00:45 |
| Pantsu | or \n | 00:46 |
| shubi | I upgraded today, never had an issue before. | 00:46 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: could it be you bootet a 15.04 ubuntu on the 2tb disk? | 00:46 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: That's what I was thinking, and that's why I wanted help with the partitioning | 00:46 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: that is why i would like to see a "mount" from that 15.04 system running | 00:46 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: partitioning is easy: 15GB for / rest for /home. both ext4 | 00:47 |
| jesper_ | Then I will do that, have to re-install the boot device though | 00:47 |
| shubi | Any ideas? | 00:48 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: It's very daunting to someone who isn't used to doing any partitioning haha, I've only done it with Arch before and that was a complete walkthrough | 00:48 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Confirmed, same sum as I have .. so we are working with 15.10 ! | 00:49 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Glad to hear it haha, I'm installing it again on the USB drive | 00:49 |
| === mike_ is now known as Guest4678 | ||
| Bashing-om | jesper_: K, when it is installed to the USB drive . we verify the copy . boot in UEFI setting to the USB as soon as the bios screen clears repeatedly depress and release the escape key -> language screen, escape key again to accept the default -> boot options scren -> "check disk for defects" . | 00:53 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Checking for defects now | 00:54 |
| yedderson | I want to enable apparmor for firefox, I'm getting this error : Could not open 'tunables/proc' | 00:54 |

| jesper_ | Bashing-om: It doesn't say which files though | 00:55 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Good, we know the copy is bad ! /// recopy the image and try again . | 00:55 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: re-installing to the USB | 00:57 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: What tool are you using to make the copy to USB ? | 00:58 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Yumi | 00:58 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Checking disc for defects again | 01:00 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Again, error found in 2 files | 01:00 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: what did you use to create that usb? | 01:01 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: Yumi | 01:01 |
| k1l_ | this is on windows? | 01:02 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: Linux Mint | 01:02 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: I defer to k1l_ But 'dd' works to make that copy . | 01:02 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: use "dd" then | 01:02 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: Never used that before | 01:02 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: other programs tend to change files to make their own menu or logo into it. | 01:02 |
| jesper_ | I have no clue how to use 'dd' | 01:03 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: sudo dd if=/path/to/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1M && sync | 01:03 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: Just copy-paste that into the terminal? | 01:04 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: ' sudo dd if=/path/to/iso of=/dev/sdd bs=4M && sync ' where with 'parted -l ' you confirm that the USB drive is seen as "sdd" !! | 01:04 |
| k1l_ | make sure /dev/sdX is X for the correct drive and not sdX1 for the first partition | 01:04 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: need to adjust if and of to your needs | 01:04 |
| jesper_ | I'll go looking for all the paths | 01:04 |
| teerl | I feel conv=sync would be better than && sync | 01:05 |
| teerl | that's just my preference though | 01:05 |
| Bashing-om | teerl: And that sounds like you have the greater experience . | 01:06 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: If the ISO is in "Downloads/ISO.iso" then do I write it straight up as sudo dd if=/Downloads/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1M && sync | 01:06 |
| jesper_ | And how to I know which sd I'm using? | 01:07 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: "sudo parted -l" will list the devices. seee there what your usb is | 01:07 |
| romare | hey I wanna install skype on my ubuntu 14.04 LTS. is that possible? | 01:08 |

| k1l_ | jesper_: leave the first / in front of Downloads (you can use tab key to use automatic completion) | 01:11 |
| romare | k1l_: and now from which source should I install it? | 01:11 |
| k1l_ | romare: sudo apt update && sudo apt install skype | 01:11 |

| jesper_ | This is what is says exactly: Warning: /dev/sdb contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table. | 01:17 |
| jesper_ | However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should. | 01:17 |
| jesper_ | Perhaps it was corrupted -- possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT | 01:17 |
| jesper_ | partition tables. Or perhaps you deleted the GPT table, and are now using an | 01:17 |
| jesper_ | msdos partition table. Is this a GPT partition table? | 01:17 |
| jesper_ | Yes/No? | 01:17 |
| Bashing-om | K1 jesper_ Reformat the drive ? should it not be fat16 ? and as such would not have a GPT partition table ??? | 01:18 |

| jesper_ | This is the entire output: http://i.imgur.com/MnZUcCp.png | 01:20 |

| k1l_ | jesper_: try to boot it. | 01:21 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: Okay | 01:21 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: because you just "burned" the exact image onto it. its not bigger than the .iso | 01:22 |
| xgpt | Hey! I'm looking for a guide to a persistent installation of a linux server for a **very** light, single user wiki&ssh host. I would like to be able to boot into a linux distro (preferably debian or ubuntu) and have it load my server software from USB, (maybe into RAM?!) and use the rest of the free space of the USB drive as a disk for writing on. Is this possible? | 01:22 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: Checking for defects | 01:23 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: no errors found | 01:23 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: do you want me to show you "mount" whilst loaded into the LiveCD? | 01:24 |
| k1l_ | good. keep this in mind for "easy" live usb making :) | 01:24 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: no. just install onto that ssd. | 01:24 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: using my own preferences or using the standard installation? | 01:24 |
| k1l_ | manual partitioning. | 01:24 |
| k1l_ | then make a ~15GB partition and the rest into another one. the small one will be ext4 and mounted as /. the large one will be ext4 and mounted as /home. then accept changes and go on with install | 01:26 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: Should I remove all the other partitions from the other drives as well? To minimize the chances of what happened earlier? | 01:27 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: no | 01:28 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: so, 1 partition which is 15GB, primary, beginning of space, ext4, mouted at "/" | 01:29 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: It says 15.10 now btw, not 15.04! :D | 01:29 |
| k1l_ | jesper_: yes. | 01:30 |
| jesper_ | k1l_: and the second partition will be: the rest of the space, primary, beginning of space, ext4, mounted at "/home"? | 01:31 |
| k1l_ | yes | 01:31 |

| k1l_ | jesper_: that sounds like you need to install the nvidia driver from ubuntu first for better running gui | 01:41 |

| k1l_ | !nomodeset | jesper_ | 01:43 |

| WACOMalt | Hey folks. Wondering if someone can help me. | 02:16 |
| WACOMalt | I'm on Linux Mint, running Mate. I installed the NVidia 361 drivers, which went fine. However I had issues with vsync not working even when enabled in nvidia settings. (Which I recall also happened on 352, the current recommended drivers) | 02:16 |
| WACOMalt | So I found that I needed to add a line to my xorg.conf at the end of the Devices section. (Option "TripleBuffer" "True") I didnt have an xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 so I saved it from nvidia-settings (as sudo) and added the line and copied it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Vsync isnt working after a reboot. Dragging windows causes tearing, and games tear too. What's odd is the "tear line" is always in the same location, unlike usual teraing where it wil | 02:16 |
| WACOMalt | l move around. So I think its "working" but maybe is hitting an issue with my not consistent monitor sizes? One is 1920x1200 the other is 1920x1080. here is the current conf as saved by nvidia, and edited: http://pastebin.com/gPM7bY6g | 02:16 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: are you there? | 02:16 |
| xgpt | jesper_: any guides? the installer seems very set on not giving me options. it's stupid-proof. I've downloaded the desktop iso that boots into a full desktop. I would only like to install the server though..not the full desktop :) | 02:17 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Yeah ... attending to dogs . as to 'dd' nope same same procedure . | 02:18 |
| jesper_ | xgpt: why not try: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server/install-ubuntu-server | 02:18 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: thanks! what kind of dogs? race that is | 02:18 |
| xgpt | jesper_: I can't burn any CDs | 02:18 |
| xgpt | I only have a single usb drive too | 02:18 |
| jesper_ | xgpt: try using that usb drive then | 02:19 |
| xgpt | but the problem is I'd like to INSTALL *to* that USB drive :P | 02:19 |
| jesper_ | Oh, that shouldn't be a problem should it? | 02:19 |
| xgpt | I can boot into the graphical livecd and use the "toram" option to load it into ram...and then install to USB from RAM | 02:19 |
| jesper_ | Can't you use the media you're currently on to install the server onto? | 02:19 |
| xgpt | but I'm not confident the server installer loads itself fully into ram | 02:19 |
| jesper_ | xgpt: It doesn't seem like I'm the right person to answer these questions haha, I'm a beginner myself so you know | 02:20 |
| xgpt | if I could load the server installer into RAM that would fix my problem...but I'm not sure how to | 02:20 |

| squinty | xgpt, if you already have a linux/grub2 installed then the following may be of use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot | 02:23 |

| Bashing-om | jesper_: That should absolutely scream with your hardware ! | 02:24 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: I think there might've been a problem - I'm seeing "Install Ubuntu MATE" instead of the Xubuntu | 02:24 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Uh Huh ... we have a problem .. verify .iso and insure that you 'dd' the correct .iso file . | 02:25 |

| jesper_ | Bashing-om: One is called "Ubuntu-MATE .." and the other is just called "efi" | 02:27 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: Well, verify that the desired .iso is present ' ls -al Dounloads/xubuntu.iso ' . | 02:27 |

| Bashing-om | jesper_: Looks right to me . that command ( paste ) showld be correct . | 02:29 |
| xgpt | squinty: but that HDD fried and I'm trying to just revive it with a single USB drive........it's just for SSH and a light HTTP server for just me... | 02:29 |
| xangua | romare: that doesn't sound like an Ubuntu support question, sorry | 02:29 |
| romare | xangua: can someone see the location of the application he installed? | 02:30 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: Ignore what I said previously, it is showing it as 2 different USBs and the other one isn't called "efi" it's called "Xubuntu 15.10 amd64" | 02:30 |
| squinty | xgpt, afaik, then you need a second usb or dvd | 02:30 |
| xgpt | squinty: but I can load the full desktop installer to ram | 02:32 |
| xgpt | so I can install the desktop version to the USB | 02:32 |
| romare | lol, at least this question must be something to answer: isn't there a way to know the location of the app you installed via Wine? | 02:32 |
| Bashing-om | jesper_: ?? and "Xubuntu 15.10 amd64" USB verifies ' check disk for defects ' ? | 02:33 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: I have the USB plugged in to this computer now and it shows up as 2 different usbs, I did the check disc for defects earlier but I noticed that was with Mate and now Xubuntu, I'm thinking that I just remove all the Ubuntu mate files and try again | 02:34 |
| jesper_ | Bashing-om: I didn't get the option to install Xubuntu when I plugged it into the computer | 02:35 |

| Bashing-om | jesper_: I would have expected 'dd' to completely overwrite the USB ... beats me what took pplace ... while on my mind ... I thought that the DDS drive was seen as 'sda' are you sure you want to 'dd' the .iso to 'sdb ' as in that screen shot ? 'parted -l ' to remove any doubt . | 02:36 |

| xgpt | i.e. is it possible to install ubuntu from inside windows? | 03:24 |
| SchrodingersScat | !wubi | xgpt in fact, please don't use wubi. | 03:24 |
| ubottu | xgpt in fact, please don't use wubi.: Wubi was a way to install Ubuntu from within Windows, but it is no longer supported in recent versions of Ubuntu and was never well maintained even for Ubuntu 12.04. Do not use Wubi. See !install for other options for installing Ubuntu. | 03:24 |
| reisio | SchrodingersScat: ... | 03:25 |
| reisio | xgpt: yes, but it's far more straightforward to do it from a live OS | 03:25 |
| SchrodingersScat | reisio: is that wrong? | 03:25 |
| nacc | Guest52634: is it not just: "claws-mail-fancy-plugin - HTML mail viewer using GTK+2 WebKit"? | 03:25 |

| reisio | xgpt: are you trying to setup a semi-professional server, or just something to tinker with? | 03:27 |
| xgpt | but is it possible to boto the server install image into a RAMDISK? | 03:27 |
| reisio | xgpt: if the latter, you can get there easily from the desktop image | 03:27 |
| xgpt | like using the "toram" option? | 03:28 |
| reisio | xgpt: yup | 03:28 |
| xgpt | reisio: just a tinker thing I guess, something to run SSH and a simple LAMP stack for a single wiki for personal use | 03:28 |
| reisio | xgpt: yes, the desktop image will be fine, if you can't get another | 03:29 |
| xgpt | how do I install the headless server from the desktop image? | 03:29 |
| xgpt | It's a nice computer, but I don't want the wasted resources or bloat of the full desktop | 03:29 |

| reisio | Guest45630: meaning you don't hear them? | 03:32 |
| reisio | Guest45630: /nick hdmibummer | 03:32 |
| reisio | gj: hi again | 03:32 |
| Guest45630 | reisio: no, only HDMI channels available | 03:32 |
| reisio | gj: you ran the installer, rebooted, and it says welcome to ubuntu with a $ prompt? | 03:33 |
| xgpt | oh, I'll just install from virtualbox! *doh* | 03:33 |
| reisio | Guest45630: not sure what you're saying | 03:33 |
| reisio | xgpt: not entirely sure vbox has a facility for installing to metal; though you can always transfer afterwards... it will be slightly less straightforward | 03:33 |
| xgpt | I think it's working, I'm just booting the livecd in vbox and then will try to install the the mounted USB drive | 03:34 |
| WangDang | I've installed Ubuntu 14.04 in Virtualbox vm. When trying to install the guest additions on this machine, I get an error about not being able to find the kernel headers for the running kernel (https://paste.ubuntu.com/18922920). I've checked, and the headers for the running kernel are install. Does anyone know a way around this? | 03:34 |
| gj | anyone had problems with nvidia on ubuntu | 03:35 |
| reisio | gj: not a useful question | 03:35 |
| reisio | if you have a problem, describe it | 03:35 |
| wafflejock | gj: not personally but it varies for different chipsets and drivers how well things work | 03:35 |
| reisio | WangDang: min | 03:35 |
| wafflejock | gj: what reisio said | 03:35 |
| gj | i have had many problems | 03:35 |
| phiona | help...http://pastebin.com/ZL1UDc1k | 03:35 |
| gj | all forums point to the fact that it could be due to nvidia | 03:36 |
| Guest45630 | reisio: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15193929/ | 03:36 |
| reisio | WangDang: http://virtualboxes.org/doc/installing-guest-additions-on-ubuntu/ | 03:36 |
| wafflejock | gj: we need to know the specifics of your problem to weigh in really | 03:36 |
| gj | ok right now | 03:36 |
| reisio | gj: pick one problem, describe it | 03:36 |
| gj | ill give u background.. | 03:36 |
| gj | i was getting white screen .. so i activated nomodest and noquet nosplash and acti-off | 03:37 |
| reisio | phiona: apt-get -f install, as it says, not just 'apt-get -f' on its own | 03:37 |
| gj | i could go ahead with install | 03:37 |
| gj | but now on ubuntu command .. i used startx.. | 03:37 |
| roygbiv | phiona, maybe try what the help suggests, “sudo apt-get -f install linux-headers-3.13.0-79-generic” | 03:37 |
| gj | it gave xauth: file.. /.Xauthority does not exist | 03:38 |
| WangDang | reisio: I've seen that page. That's the procedure I'm following, but it is giving me an error about not being able to find the kernel headers. It's not working as smoothly as described in that link | 03:38 |
| gj | and it said system problem detected in GUI | 03:38 |
| WangDang | the kernel headers are installed | 03:38 |
| xgpt | reisio: it's working well! :D | 03:38 |
| gj | now i tried to go back by CTRL+ALT+F1 | 03:38 |
| gj | how do i get GUI | 03:39 |
| reisio | xgpt: gj | 03:39 |
| reisio | gj: F7 | 03:39 |
| gj | F7 not working | 03:39 |
| reisio | gj: ps aux | grep -i lightdm | 03:39 |
| xgpt | reisio: huh? | 03:39 |
| reisio | xgpt: good job | 03:40 |
| roygbiv | heh | 03:40 |
| xgpt | reisio: thanks for the help!! :D | 03:40 |
| reisio | roygbiv: saw that one coming, what? :p | 03:41 |
| wafflejock | gj: the nomodeset is going to use the vesa drivers which should be fine for minimal stuff but won't get any hardware acceleration from your gpu and isn't really using the GPU specific drivers | 03:41 |
| roygbiv | lol yep, too funny | 03:41 |
| gj | i am not able to install dont care about graphics card now | 03:41 |
| wafflejock | gj: should be able to have lightdm running and get a session going though | 03:41 |
| wafflejock | gj: did you run the command from resio? | 03:42 |
| gj | no | 03:42 |
| gj | could not get | 03:42 |
| gj | now again i rebooted | 03:42 |
| gj | line:7 cant open dev sr0 no medium found | 03:42 |
| Madhumper69 | VPN not working when firewall is enabled and i ahve port 1723 pptp open? its this a bug i cant find a solution online | 03:42 |
| wafflejock | gj: sorry back up one more step, have you already installed or are you just trying to get through the installation at this point? also what version are you installing? | 03:44 |
| xblue555 | I am trying to install ubuntu on 2 hard drives, I have a 150 Gb and a 250 Gb, I know I can have ubuntu / and /swap on the 150 Gb and the /Home on the 250. But what I want is like a / and /swap and /home on the 150Gb and anouther /home on the 250Gb can anyone help I am doing a fresh install | 03:44 |
| gj | xblue555: i am trying to install | 03:45 |
| phiona | roygbiv: http://pastebin.com/qzfs48EA | 03:45 |
| gj | i got the welcome to ubuntu message once with ubuntu@ubuntu prompt ,, i used startx for GUI .. it is 14.04.4 | 03:45 |
| roygbiv | phiona, disk full error? do you have a filesystem out of space? | 03:46 |
| wafflejock | xblue555: you can really just mount the 250 GB somewhere within the home as an alternative/extra home folder | 03:46 |
| gj | all i want to do is install ubuntu fresh on my hdd, and lose windows and all data... | 03:47 |
| gj | i have backup of data | 03:47 |
| wafflejock | gj: you got the desktop installation download too right not trying to do this with the server install disk (sorry just eliminating the obvious) | 03:47 |
| gj | can sm1 guide me the best process. | 03:47 |
| gj | i downloaded the iso its 1020 MB.. server install disk is i think 40MB | 03:47 |
| xblue555 | wafflejock: so should I set the 250Gb's format to a windows format? | 03:48 |
| gj | login timed out after 60 seconds | 03:48 |
| gj | @wafflejock i downloaded ubuntu iso desktop | 03:50 |
| wafflejock | xblue555: sorry didn't catch the part about integrating any of that with windows? can just use ext4 if it's just going to be another filesystem for linux, if you want to share the filesystem I think FAT32 might really be the most cross platform compatible option | 03:50 |
| Gallomimia | yup. | 03:50 |
| Gallomimia | 40meg install disk is probably a network install. you need to download all the packages off the net as it installs | 03:51 |
| wafflejock | yeah the server one is 596 desktop one is 1020 though actually a bit smaller than I thought | 03:51 |
| gj | i have 1020 MB | 03:51 |
| wafflejock | seems it's the right one though | 03:51 |
| gj | i feel the disc is fine problem is with hardware | 03:51 |
| xblue555 | so ext4 what should the mount point be? | 03:52 |
| phiona | roygbiv: gparted says i have about 1.5 gb left of unused space on root and i still have plenty on home partitions. | 03:52 |
| Gallomimia | xblue555: why do you want a windows format for something? | 03:52 |
| phiona | roygbiv: they are all ext4. | 03:52 |
| wafflejock | gj yeah I mean you can md5 checksum the download and the disc to be sure on that part but typically I've been able to get through installations with at most using the nomodeset boot flag if there are problems with the drivers | 03:53 |
| wafflejock | really when I've encountered that kind of thing it usually gets through the install then is using the wrong drivers on first boot and I have to correct | 03:53 |
| Gallomimia | my personal preference is to put the extra big drive as mounted at /data and just put the big files on it. like steam games and videos and music and such. | 03:53 |
| claudia | hola | 03:53 |
| Gallomimia | bonjour | 03:53 |
| Gallomimia | claudia: hablas inglis? | 03:53 |
| gj | error is /init line 7 : cant open /dev/sro0 : no medium found | 03:54 |
| claudia | no :( | 03:54 |
| Gallomimia | !es | claudia | 03:54 |
| ubottu | claudia: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 03:54 |
| roygbiv | phiona, well dpkg seems to think whatever filesystem “/usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-79-generic/include/config/have/user/return” is mounted at, is full | 03:54 |
| wafflejock | xblue555: regarding the mount point can really be wherever you want, I would probably really just set that up after installation using gparted to do the partitioning then just configure your fstab file to mount the drive to the location you want | 03:54 |
| wafflejock | gj: looks like it could be a boot image writing problem actually https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/500822 not entirely sure but google does come back with some results for that error | 03:55 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 500822 in Ubuntu "/init: line 7: can't open /dev/sr0: No medium found" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 03:55 |
| xblue555 | ok thnks | 03:55 |
| wafflejock | xblue555: yup np some general instructions on setting up and mounting locations then using fstab here http://sourcedigit.com/8194-customize-ubuntu-14-04-mount-hard-disk-partitionsdrives-automatically-system-startup/ uses ntfs though, general instructions here http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/wily/man5/fstab.5.html | 03:58 |
| Madhumper69 | vpn wont connect with firewall enabled and port 1723 is open for pptp??? driving me mad :P | 03:59 |
| jayjo | if I want to capture just the standard error in a cron job, is it sh my_script.sh 2> | 03:59 |
| wafflejock | Madhumper69: maybe check with nmap to be sure on the port or, sudo netstat -tulnp | grep 1723, to see the process bound to it, aside from that start digging in logs :) | 04:00 |
| Madhumper69 | i have in var logs but nothing has helped me its chinese to me | 04:01 |
| wafflejock | Madhumper69: what's the VPN server software you're running? does it have a log? if so try to tail -f /var/log/vpn/access.log or whatever the file is for access or error logs, tail -f will show the end of the log and any new logs will show up in the console as they happen | 04:02 |
| === sins-_w is now known as sins- | ||
| wafflejock | would do the netstat first too to be sure the VPN server software is running the process bound to that port on the system too | 04:03 |
| Madhumper69 | its frootvpn no software it wroks when i disable the firewall however i have port 1723 open and it wont work when enabled | 04:03 |
| wafflejock | and can nmap from the client to the server to see what ports are open | 04:03 |
| wafflejock | hrm must be using other ports for some other part of the traffic or something but no VPN expert for sure :) | 04:04 |
| Madhumper69 | thanks | 04:04 |
| wafflejock | Madhumper69: yah denada sorry I don't have a good answer for ya but at least some things to poke at it with... let me know if you figure it out | 04:05 |
| Madhumper69 | its strange how it works with the firewall disabled and yet when i have port 1723 open it wont conn when firewall is active | 04:05 |
| Madhumper69 | i will for sure | 04:05 |
| Madhumper69 | do you know the command for restarting the vpn service in ubuntu? | 04:06 |
| phiona | how do i get info on how much space is reserved on my partitions with tune2fs? | 04:07 |
| wafflejock | Madhumper69: depends on the particular service/process the typical command looks something like, sudo service frootvpn restart, but think that assumes it has upstart scripts that say what "restart" actually means for that process | 04:08 |
| Madhumper69 | network-manager-pptp-gnome | 04:08 |
| Madhumper69 | its iputed directly no software | 04:08 |
| reisio | phiona: tune2fs -l /dev/foo# | grep -i reserv | 04:08 |
| phiona | reisio: tune2fs -l /dev/foo# | grep -i reserv | 04:12 |
| phiona | tune2fs: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/foo# | 04:12 |
| phiona | Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock. | 04:12 |
| Rache | phiona I think /dev/foo# needs to be your drive like /dev/sda1 or something | 04:13 |
| hack-wizard | I've got an issue with trusty LTS on VMWare Player on Windows ... the VMWare tools installation does not work correctly because it says it needs open-vm-tools 10.0.0.0, and the repos do not have that version or higher | 04:13 |
| hack-wizard | is there a PPA with the correct version available? Seriously, this is a major functionallity breaker here. | 04:14 |
| hil | hack-wizard, open-vm-tools-lts-trusty | 04:16 |
| roygbiv | when i install postfix using apt-get, it stops during the install and asks a couple of postfix configuration questions. is there a way to answer those questions on the command line? i want to do an automated install | 04:16 |
| hack-wizard | hil: that's a metapackage though | 04:16 |
| hack-wizard | hil: doesn't install 10.0.0.0 | 04:16 |
| hil | i c | 04:17 |
| phiona | reisio: i cant make sense of this... sudo tune2fs -l /dev/sda6 | grep -i reserv | 04:17 |

| Ben64 | roygbiv: maybe sudo apt-get -y install <whatever> | 04:18 |
| roygbiv | Ben64, well but the questions are from a postfix installation process that apparently gets run by apt-get or dpkg maybe, like some sort of post-install configuration program | 04:19 |
| gj | what settings should i use in boot options while installing | 04:19 |
| gj | currently it is file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper only ubiquity | 04:20 |

| reisio | hack-wizard: need help with something, or just venting? | 04:27 |
| ngocok | Hi, how do you move Close button, Minimize & maximize button to the left on Kubuntu 15.10? | 04:27 |
| gj | can anyone tell me the boot options for install while using CD | 04:27 |
| hack-wizard | reisio: both ... current VMWare tools require open-vm-tools 10.0.0.0 or greater to operate ... the version available in the LTS repos is, like, 5.something | 04:28 |
| reisio | ngocok: unity-tweak | 04:28 |
| reisio | gj: hrmm? | 04:28 |
| ngocok | reisio: it's not Ubuntu | 04:29 |
| phiona | reisio: i just wanted to see how much is the reserved space on my partition because it is reporting as disk full even though gparted says i still have about 1,.5 gb left on my 20 gb root partition. | 04:29 |
| gj | reisio: hrmm? | 04:29 |
| reisio | ngocok: not Unity, you mean? What then? | 04:29 |
| ngocok | reisio: Plasma 5 | 04:29 |
| reisio | phiona: you might want df -i | 04:29 |
| reisio | phiona: man mkfs.ext4 has the defaults, it's to avoid fragmentation, and also your system utterly dying | 04:29 |
| reisio | phiona: if you're out of space, make space | 04:29 |
| reisio | ngocok: I'd ask #kde | 04:30 |
| hack-wizard | reisio: meaning that the VM is very very awkward to use ... especially if you want to actually do anything with it and the hard installed OS at the same time, which is kinda the whole point of a virtual install | 04:30 |
| phiona | reisio: what do u mean utterly dying? | 04:31 |
| Ben64 | hack-wizard: and it's up to ubuntu to support your choice of vm software? | 04:31 |
| reisio | hack-wizard: you try vbox/ | 04:31 |
| reisio | phiona: like, ceasing to process anything, requiring a reboot | 04:32 |
| reisio | running out of space is bad, create more space | 04:32 |
| wkmanire | reisio: "man foo has the defaults". he he he, That sounds like "foo" has a mundane illness. | 04:32 |
| phiona | reisio: how do i make space? gparted? | 04:33 |
| reisio | wkmanire: heh | 04:33 |
| hack-wizard | reisio: ok I guess I'll try it ... but I really wanted it to be able to actually use my USB 3.0 ports, guess that's too much to ask though | 04:33 |
| reisio | phiona: no | 04:33 |
| reisio | phiona: you either delete cruft you don't need, or add another storage device | 04:33 |
| reisio | the latter is a more efficient use of time | 04:33 |
| reisio | of time/money | 04:33 |
| reisio | the former is worth keeping up with, if you have the time | 04:33 |
| reisio | hack-wizard: not for nothing, but reverse psychology doesn't work on hardened IRC volunteers :p | 04:34 |
| wkmanire | So with 16.04 beta 1 on the way in a few days, I noticed that the next milestone will include a UI freeze. | 04:34 |
| krobzaur | Hello all! Whats the best way to transfer an ubuntu installation from one disk to another? I would be transferring from a large 3TB spinning hard disk to a 512GB NVMe SSD. I was thinking about running the ubuntu installer on the SSD, installing all my packages, then copying over the entire root filesystem from my old disk | 04:35 |
| wkmanire | Does anyone know of any large UI changes that are supposed to land between the beta and the freeze? | 04:35 |
| === julien is now known as Guest88515 | ||
| reisio | wkmanire: I can tell you that it's unlikely GNOME 3 or compiz are going anywhere | 04:35 |
| phiona | reisio: i would prefer gparted bcoz i still do not have funds to get another storage device. | 04:35 |
| wkmanire | krobzaur: What does your FS look like? | 04:36 |
| reisio | krobzaur: well, copying over /home/ alone at the end might be more sensible | 04:36 |
| === Guest88515 is now known as nonnatus | ||
| reisio | krobzaur: you _can_ actually just rsync the entire installation over, and reconfigure your kernel, reinstall grub, etc. | 04:36 |
| wkmanire | reisio: I'm a huge fan of Gnome 3, but I'm also excited to see what the new Unity release is like. | 04:36 |
| reisio | krobzaur: there are some provisos, but it's quite doable | 04:36 |
| Bashing-om | phiona: 'df -h ; df -i | 04:36 |
| Bashing-om | to see the disk usage, where to ficus attention on removing ctuft . | 04:37 |
| krobzaur | wkmanire: FS? As is filesystem? | 04:37 |
| krobzaur | cd /home/ | 04:37 |
| krobzaur | ls | 04:37 |
| wkmanire | krobzaur: Yep. What kind of filesystem layout do you use? | 04:37 |
| krobzaur | oops lol | 04:37 |
| wkmanire | krobzaur: Do you have everything on one big partition? Do you have separate partitions for /boot, /home etc? | 04:38 |
| roygbiv | phiona, you might be able to go into /usr/src and delete old kernel headers to free up a little space. but i’m not sure if that’s dangerous or not | 04:38 |
| wkmanire | Before you just start copying your FS around you have to think about things like this. | 04:38 |
| krobzaur | wkmanire: Super basic. Just ext4 for my root partition, 1 swap partition, and then a small efi system partition for grub | 04:38 |
| wkmanire | Are you going to be putting a new drive in the same machine? Or will this be another machine? | 04:38 |
| krobzaur | Same machine | 04:39 |
| wkmanire | So the EFI system should work the same. The next thing to to think about is that your new drive is 1/6th the size of your current drive right? | 04:39 |
| krobzaur | Yeah, but I'm barely using any space on my current drive | 04:39 |
| wkmanire | You can't just dd the disk across because there's no telling how the data has been distributed across the disk. | 04:40 |
| wkmanire | Probably the safest thing for you to do, is to get a list of all of the user space apps you have installed and save that somewhere | 04:40 |
| Xmas | hi | 04:40 |
| wkmanire | Then put the new disk in, do a fresh install to it, and rsync your /home across | 04:41 |
| wkmanire | Then reinstall all of your apps from your list. | 04:41 |
| krobzaur | wkmanire: Yeah thats what I was thinking as well, simple and low risk | 04:41 |
| wkmanire | If the destination disk was the same size or larger you could just dd it, but alas it is not so. | 04:42 |
| reisio | dd's just the wrong tool | 04:42 |
| wkmanire | reisio: Why do you think so? | 04:42 |
| krobzaur | Yeah, unfortunately so. And clonezilla can't handle going from a larger disk to a smaller disk | 04:42 |
| roygbiv | i’d probably use dd myself | 04:43 |
| krobzaur | I would have as well if I didn't have the size restriction. Just kick it off overnight and be done. | 04:43 |
| roygbiv | so you’ll use rsync? | 04:44 |
| phiona | Bashing-om: hi http://pastebin.com/amv1BsTL | 04:44 |
| phiona | roygbiv: http://pastebin.com/amv1BsTL | 04:44 |
| wkmanire | krobzaur: Another good option would be to use a backup utility like deja gnu and copy /home to a third disk (like a thumb drive) | 04:44 |
| krobzaur | Yeah probably. One question though. Should I install all my packages first, then copy over /home/ with all my configs and whatnot? I feel like the order should be important | 04:45 |
| wkmanire | Then recover from the third party disk to your new disk. You'd get the benefit of a compressed backup on an external disk. | 04:45 |
| wkmanire | Deja-gnu I think? | 04:45 |
| roygbiv | phiona, yep you’re cutting it pretty close on both space and free inodes | 04:46 |
| krobzaur | deja-dup ? | 04:46 |
| roygbiv | that’s an amazing amount of inode usage on /. | 04:46 |
| Bashing-om | phiona: "/dev/sda6 19G 17G 1001M 95% / " does terminal command ' sudo apt-get autoremove ' help a bunch ? | 04:46 |
| wkmanire | krobzaur: Yes, deja-dup, deja gnu is a unit testing thing. lol | 04:47 |
| wkmanire | And as far as the order of copying vs installing. I cannot say if it makes a difference. | 04:47 |
| wkmanire | Packages might choose to look for existing configs during installation, but that would vary from package to package. | 04:47 |
| roygbiv | gitlab is an unholy monster | 04:48 |
| roygbiv | :( | 04:48 |
| phiona | so what do i do now?? i still do not have funds for additional storage. | 04:48 |
| roygbiv | phiona, i’m curious what the heck is using all your inodes. do you have a gazillion files in /tmp maybe? | 04:49 |
| Rache | :) | 04:49 |
| Bashing-om | phiona: ^^ remove all cruft . | 04:49 |
| Jack_vim_rip | :) | 04:49 |
| krobzaur | wkmanire: Gotcha. Is there any way for apt-get to install all the packages output by dpkg-query --list ? | 04:49 |
| wkmanire | krobzaur: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17823/how-to-list-all-installed-packages | 04:50 |
| reisio | used to be a !clone factoid :/ | 04:51 |
| wkmanire | But you shouldn't try to re-install *everything*. Just the userspace programs you're using for the most part. Unless you've installed any servers or anything. | 04:51 |
| krobzaur | Not much else, just a webserver which is pretty simple | 04:51 |
| wkmanire | My advise here would be to not worry about it. Just get the most complex ones listed down. | 04:52 |
| wkmanire | Like your webserver. It's so quick and easy to reinstall a package when you need it, you may as well just wait until the need arrises for the specific program. | 04:52 |
| wkmanire | Unless you plan to go work offline for an extended period of time in the near future. | 04:52 |
| wkmanire | advice* | 04:53 |
| krobzaur | true | 04:55 |
| krobzaur | found a neat trick here though: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReinstallingSamePackages | 04:55 |
| phiona | roygbiv: NO I DONT HAVE A LOT OF FILES IN /TMP. maybe its bcoz when i delete something i just open trash and then select all and then hit delete key,. is that good? | 04:57 |
| reisio | phiona: quite often normal | 04:58 |
| roygbiv | phiona, that wouldn’t cause the inode issue | 04:58 |
| roygbiv | and yes that’s a fine way to go about deleting things | 04:58 |
| reisio | phiona: https://wiki.debian.org/ReduceDebian | 04:58 |
| reisio | if you're out of inodes, your FS was probably made incorrectly | 04:58 |
| reisio | less likely: you have a disproportionate amount of tiny files | 04:58 |
| roygbiv | phiona, run this command and tell me what number it prints: sudo find /tmp | wc -l | 04:59 |
| wkmanire | krobzaur: nice | 05:00 |
| phiona | Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/VnqsDyGF | 05:01 |
| krobzaur | wkmanire: It kind of bothers me that doing it this way doesn't keep track of dependencies though. So in the future old, unused libraries that were dependencies of packages installed by that method won't be cleaned out by autoremove | 05:01 |
| wkmanire | It's probably not worth futzing around with. | 05:02 |
| === sins-_w is now known as sins- | ||
| phiona | roygbiv: 19 | 05:02 |
| roygbiv | hmm, ok | 05:02 |
| krobzaur | Yeah your probably right | 05:03 |
| Bashing-om | phiona: " Depends: linux-headers-3.13.0-79-generic but it is not installed " == not enough space to complete installation . | 05:03 |
| roygbiv | phiona, that link that was posted earlier is probably your best resource, https://wiki.debian.org/ReduceDebian | 05:03 |
| wkmanire | krobzaur: I have this bad habbit of playing with my Linux too much. This breaks the Linux. | 05:03 |
| krobzaur | hahah too true. Probably best to keep this whole procedure simple and straightforward | 05:06 |
| phiona | reisio: ok. ill check it out later. im hungry. | 05:06 |
| roygbiv | i suspect phiona’s actually running out of inodes | 05:06 |
| roygbiv | 1001MB free in /, but only 7979 unused inodes | 05:07 |
| Bashing-om | phiona: ' dpkg -l | grep linux- ' see what we can do manually . | 05:07 |
| reisio | phiona: what will you eat? | 05:07 |
| reisio | a gig isn't that much | 05:08 |
| Madhumper69 | could anyone tell me why vpn wont work if firewall is enabled even with ports open for pptp 1723 ? | 05:08 |
| phiona | Bashing-om: ok. ill do it later. im hungry. | 05:08 |
| reisio | anyway, I think a number of people have mentioned df -i already | 05:08 |
| roygbiv | reisio, but installing the linux kernel headers shouldn’t need a gig right? | 05:08 |
| Bashing-om | roygbiv: ^^ and that too is a fact .. a biggy . | 05:09 |
| wkmanire | roygbiv: Most probably not. I know there is a lot of code, but not a GB of headers. | 05:09 |
| roygbiv | but i bet it’s a huge number of small files == heavy inode usage | 05:09 |
| krobzaur | well, thanks for all the advice! | 05:10 |
| phiona | reisio: food . goodbye. | 05:10 |
| Madhumper69 | any vpn guru's in here | 05:10 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: I'm no guru, but I've used a couple of different VPN packages. | 05:11 |
| reisio | roygbiv: dunno, the distro I use doesn't separate sources & headers | 05:11 |
| crestcore | Hi | 05:11 |
| Madhumper69 | well im using frootvpn no software i can use vpn when firewall is disabled not when enabled... ports 1723 for pptp are open? | 05:12 |
| reisio | oh I guess it does | 05:12 |
| reisio | 4MB | 05:12 |
| wkmanire | crestcore: Why hello there. | 05:12 |
| crestcore | Which linux version is most stable and of small size for a gateway on X86 | 05:13 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: Depends on your configuration. Are you running the firewall? | 05:13 |
| wkmanire | Have you checked your configurations with ufw? | 05:13 |
| roygbiv | crestcore, gateway == router? | 05:13 |
| Ben64 | crestcore: you keep coming here and asking variations of that question. this is the ubuntu support channel, for ubuntu support only. if you want distro recommendations, please ask in ##linux | 05:13 |
| Madhumper69 | yes came standard with ubuntu? | 05:14 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: Yep. I haven't used frootvpn before. Figure out what the needed ports are and then use ufw to enable them. | 05:14 |
| Madhumper69 | yes the port is open and listed for ip4 and ip6 | 05:14 |
| crestcore | Gateway- Home automation gateway | 05:14 |
| Madhumper69 | well pptp should be 1723 ? | 05:14 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: open for incoming and outgoing? | 05:15 |
| wkmanire | Could be that your VPN is using a range of ports too. What does the documentation say? | 05:15 |
| roygbiv | phiona left | 05:16 |
| Madhumper69 | i tried open | 05:16 |
| Madhumper69 | and then closed not both? | 05:17 |
| mahdi | hi all | 05:17 |
| wkmanire | crestcore: Some folks really dig OpenBSD for network appliances, but any Linux distro with a current kernel will probably be good too. | 05:17 |
| wkmanire | crestcore: You very likely don't want to install xorg, window manager or desktop environment. | 05:17 |
| mahdi | there is any way for backup installed ubuntu and restore it on the other system ? | 05:17 |
| crestcore | Yes, only headless | 05:18 |
| Madhumper69 | i looked on the website but theres nothing but how to configure it https://www.frootvpn.com/guides/mikrotik/25 | 05:18 |
| wkmanire | crestcore: headless isn't really a good way to describe a linux installation without GUI. It's still just linux. | 05:18 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: firewalls can be configured to block/allow incoming traffic, outgoing traffic or both. | 05:19 |
| crestcore | Yes, we want something that takes very little space on disk, something like 200-300 mB | 05:19 |
| Madhumper69 | i only have the option to allow in or out not both at same time? create 2 rrules? | 05:20 |
| wkmanire | crestcore: I can make some suggestions, but before I do that, I saw it mentioned that you have come here before on more than one occassion asking this question. | 05:20 |
| Ben64 | crestcore: either use the ubuntu minimal install, ubuntu server install, or ask ##linux for a different distro | 05:20 |
| wkmanire | Have you tried any advice that you have received thus far? | 05:20 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: Have you had a chance to look over of the ufw documentation? | 05:21 |
| crestcore | Only now I am getting some responses | 05:21 |
| crestcore | Can you pl advise | 05:21 |
| wkmanire | it sounds like you're missing some key concepts for managing a firewall. | 05:21 |
| Madhumper69 | well i might be but i have a basic understanding | 05:21 |
| Ben64 | crestcore: incorrect, you were receiving responses the whole time | 05:21 |
| Madhumper69 | i have enabled all my other ports to work for different things but i cant get vpn to go | 05:22 |
| crestcore | okay, what was your suggestion pl | 05:22 |
| wkmanire | crestcore: If you want complete control over your distribution, i.e. smallest possible installation size you can try Linux From Scratch or LFS. But this is only recommended for very advanced users who have a lot of free time to experiment. The next step up from that as far as ease of install while retaining the ability to customize would likely be Gentoo. You're still building from source in Gentoo. Next up is Arch, fully customizable | 05:23 |
| wkmanire | like Gentoo but you don't have to wait for stuff to build. | 05:23 |
| wkmanire | crestcore: My advice is to start with the simplest thing that *could* work and then drop down to the more customizable options as it proves necessary. And lastly, realize that it will take a lot of research and trial and error to find the ideal solution for you. Nobody can tell you the perfect answer outright. | 05:24 |
| Ben64 | crestcore: http://pastebin.com/hFKxwaq2 | 05:24 |
| crestcore_ | hi am trying to install minimalcd and got an error bad archive mirror | 05:24 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: If it works when the firewall is disabled, but not when it is enabled then you very likely have a bad configuration in your firewall. | 05:26 |
| crestcore | Ben64- okay, just checked that was colleague. | 05:26 |
| Madhumper69 | yes but i tried everything and its a no go, i just tried now to allow in and out for 1723 and nothing | 05:26 |
| wkmanire | So the first step is to find the documentation for your VPN and nail down exactly what the ports are. Second step is figure out if you need outbound and inbound or just outbound or just inbound. | 05:26 |
| crestcore | He is online now trying to install | 05:26 |
| wkmanire | Third step is to learn how to configure those port(s) with ufw as required by the VPN softwar.e | 05:27 |
| Madhumper69 | the site doesnt give much info https://www.frootvpn.com/guides/linuxdebian/19 trying to get pptp going | 05:27 |
| crestcore | hi am trying to install minimalcd and got an error bad archive mirror | 05:29 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: According to the site, https://www.frootvpn.com/features/openvpn-pptp-l2tp, they support other protocols. | 05:30 |
| wkmanire | Have you tried following directions for enabling openvpn? I saw quite a few hits when I did a web search for that. | 05:30 |
| Madhumper69 | no i have not | 05:31 |
| Ben64 | crestcore: pick a different mirror | 05:31 |
| Madhumper69 | If interested in PPTP, make sure PPTP port (TCP 1723) or GRE Port (47) is not blocked on in between firewalls. | 05:31 |
| Madhumper69 | ill try to enable 47 gre port whatever that is | 05:32 |
| crestcore_ | tried singapore us uk uae china nothing is working | 05:32 |
| wkmanire | Does GRE stand for "greather than or equal"? | 05:32 |
| wkmanire | greater* | 05:32 |
| Madhumper69 | what does that mean? lol | 05:33 |
| crestcore_ | Ben64 : tried singapore us uk uae china nothing is working | 05:33 |
| Ben64 | what version did you download | 05:34 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: I'm not familiar with PPTP, but I can tell you that it is common for secure services to first connect on a standard port (like 1723) and then securely negotiate to communicate on another port within a given range. Since this is a commercial product you should probably send them an e-mail and ask for a clarification of how to configure your firewall to enable PPTP with their client. | 05:34 |
| wkmanire | You might need a fancier configuration than just opening 1723 and 47. | 05:34 |
| Madhumper69 | well you would think they would be hits online when you search for firewall frootvpn | 05:34 |
| Madhumper69 | 0.o | 05:34 |
| wkmanire | Madhumper69: The VPNs I've used have always been third party corporate things like Cisco or Juniper Networking stuff. | 05:35 |
| Madhumper69 | says the vpn service failed when i enable firewall for vpn and when i disable firewall it connects?? | 05:35 |
| wkmanire | what? | 05:35 |
| Madhumper69 | vpn message that say connected says vpn service failed when i enable firewall and try to connect to vpn | 05:36 |
| Madhumper69 | when i disable it just connects ... its like the firewall is messing with the vpn service in ubuntu | 05:36 |
| Madhumper69 | could this be a bug? | 05:36 |
| wkmanire | Why would you think that? | 05:37 |
| Madhumper69 | because the vpn service has failed it wont try to connect when i eneable the firewall its like the service screws up until i disable the firewall | 05:38 |
| wkmanire | But why would you think there is a bug in either VPN or the firewall? | 05:38 |
| Madhumper69 | well when firewall is enabled and i click to connect to vpn it says the service failed... the service that handles the vpn connection in ubuntu | 05:38 |
| wkmanire | Yes, but I don't see how you can correlate that to there being a bug in the software. This is almost certainly a configuration issue. | 05:39 |
| Madhumper69 | why would the vpn service tell me it failed when the firewall is active and trying to connect its not an error from dialing to the vpn | 05:39 |
| Madhumper69 | how do you take a screenshot in ubuntu? | 05:40 |
| wkmanire | I didn't understand your statement. | 05:40 |
| Madhumper69 | ill paste bin | 05:41 |
| Madhumper69 | firewall disabled works normal http://picpaste.com/VPN_DISABLED-Z9gS2Py7.png | 05:45 |
| Madhumper69 | firewall enabled http://picpaste.com/vpn_enabled-gvF6GgfU.png | 05:45 |
| wkmanire | Does frootVPN write to any log files? | 05:46 |
| Madhumper69 | i seen logs in logs but i dont understand any of it | 05:47 |

| Squarism | I mean, how severe of a problem is there? When you cannot unbind middle mouse as paste? | 05:56 |

| Gallomimia | yes | 06:15 |
| linuxlove | how can i get that? | 06:15 |
| shubi | okay. I have a Thinkpad W500, Ubuntu 14.04.03 worked perfectly on it (for the most part). Ever since I updated through the update app, I can't shutdown or suspend. The computer freezes completely forcing a hard shutdown. Anything else I should add? | 06:15 |
| Gallomimia | well that's a tough question to answer | 06:15 |
| roygbiv | linuxlove, talk to your network admin guys | 06:15 |
| roygbiv | tell them roygbiv sent you :-D | 06:16 |
| Gallomimia | it probably depends on your own network. and your ISP. or possibly you could use some kind of dyn-dns service | 06:16 |
| === gms is now known as Guest22726 | ||
| linuxlove | Gallomimia, can i put a domain on the ip later? | 06:17 |
| Gallomimia | shubi: very concise. i've personally heard that updating which distro version you're using often causes strange problems like so | 06:17 |
| roygbiv | linuxlove, you’re mixing terms there. IPs don’t have domains | 06:17 |
| Gallomimia | linuxlove: yep. first thing you need to do is set your system to a static ip. likely you're behind a router and have a private ip. i'm with roygbiv/rainbow-guy there. it seems you should learn some more about networking | 06:18 |
| shubi | Gallomimia, so I need to revert back? How? | 06:19 |
| Gallomimia | revert back? oh no sir. i've heard clean installs are best. | 06:19 |
| Gallomimia | anyway afaik there's no "revert back" | 06:20 |
| shubi | Okay, so should I download 14.04.4 or 14.04.3 (that worked)? | 06:20 |
| Gallomimia | well, which do you want? | 06:21 |
| shubi | well, i guess .3 since it worked? | 06:21 |
| Gallomimia | but before you get carried away, it sounds like you should report/search-for bugs about this. | 06:21 |

| ouroumov__ | "sudo shutdown now" might be somewhat better | 06:25 |
| shubi | well.. i'm looking for the "regular" way I think? | 06:25 |

| afrokarlsson | hi, do you know why dinosauruses died, they eats all food, and fish calls they back into ocean, and fish eats they for that. In bermuda triangle. | 07:17 |
| jushur | Sirius__: depends on your isps config, if you want to force a new ip you can spoof your mac address. | 07:18 |
| wkmanire | Sirius__: Also depends on if you have a home network (very very likely these days) | 07:19 |

| shredding | What are good resources for that? Preferably online courses. | 09:24 |
| reisio | devops is just a buzzword, good luck finding "basics" for it | 09:25 |
| lotuspsychje | shredding: maybe #ubuntu-server channel would be a start | 09:25 |
| shredding | Yeah, I know. Or sysadmin. | 09:25 |
| shredding | lotuspsychje: Why's that? | 09:25 |
| lotuspsychje | shredding: server related? | 09:25 |
| shredding | yeah, but it's an irc channel, not a learning resource. | 09:26 |
| lotuspsychje | shredding: talking to likewise users, can be a starting point | 09:26 |
| shredding | Is this channel more or less for the desktop ubuntu? | 09:27 |
| lotuspsychje | shredding: main ubuntu support | 09:27 |

| lotuspsychje | phiona: make sure you dont delete official sources right | 09:29 |
| lotuspsychje | !sources | phiona | 09:29 |
| ubottu | phiona: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. | 09:29 |
| phiona | lotuspsychje: yes. i looked in synaptic. all of them starts with LP-PPA | 09:30 |
| lotuspsychje | phiona: use ppa-purge or go to your sources and delete | 09:31 |
| phiona | lotuspsychje: is ppa-purge installed by default? | 09:33 |
| lotuspsychje | !info ppa-purge | phiona | 09:33 |
| ubottu | phiona: ppa-purge (source: ppa-purge): disables a PPA and reverts to official packages. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.8+bzr57 (wily), package size 5 kB, installed size 44 kB | 09:33 |

| lotuspsychje | !compile | anes | 09:38 |
| ubottu | anes: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first). Also read !checkinstall | 09:38 |
| phiona | lotuspsychje: http://pastebin.com/FXdm1Nvi | 09:38 |
| anes | it's work fine in dpkg , but show bad package warning when use software center | 09:38 |
| lotuspsychje | phiona: yeah thats not handy, try to remove them manual from your sources | 09:40 |
| lotuspsychje | phiona: another option would be the recoverymode/fix broken packages or extreme, fresh reinstall | 09:42 |
| lotuspsychje | !recovery | phiona | 09:42 |
| ubottu | phiona: If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode. For instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode | 09:42 |

| reisio | the answer is: no, it's not worth using | 09:58 |
| algernon_ | if you have a dual boot - the OSs are on separate partitions - just make sure you don't change your partitions - the windows upgrade may mess with your bootloader - you could have to reedit the bootloader to see ubuntu again | 09:58 |

| Logicwax | from tons of different IP addresses | 10:07 |
| EriC^^ | crestcore: i guess you can remove the libreoffice stuff | 10:07 |
| reisio | vincent42: nope, su - user will work fine | 10:07 |
| reisio | Logicwax: ...like what? | 10:07 |
| Logicwax | so why is gnome-sessions posting messages to journald with timestamp and IP address? are these failed login attempts? why is gnome remote login-able anyway??1 | 10:07 |
| reisio | oh journald guy | 10:07 |
| crestcore | other than that? | 10:08 |
| crestcore | Eric : other than that? | 10:08 |
| EriC^^ | crestcore: up to you, there's lots others | 10:08 |
| Logicwax | reisio: i want to see why gnome-sessions is saying that all these IPs are connecting to it....or even if thats the way to interpret these log lines | 10:08 |
| crestcore | eric : i have installed using minimalcd | 10:09 |
| vincent42 | reisio: strnage | 10:09 |
| vincent42 | I'll try with different terminal emulator then (using terminator ) | 10:09 |
| EriC^^ | crestcore: did you install ubuntu-desktop? | 10:09 |
| vincent42 | ha ! it works wit hkonsole | 10:09 |
| vincent42 | konsole | 10:09 |
| crestcore | Eric : do you any idea about the base supporting packages to run ubuntu 14.04 LTS? | 10:09 |
| k1l_ | Logicwax: can you show those logs in a pastbin? | 10:09 |
| vincent42 | so it's a terminator bug | 10:09 |
| crestcore | Eric : not desktop i have installed server | 10:10 |
| Logicwax | sure | 10:10 |
| reisio | vincent42: or you've just used su foo - so much you had simply confused that session | 10:10 |
| crestcore | Eric : this is what i have installed "Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.13.0-79-generic x86_64)" | 10:11 |
| reisio | (would be my guess) | 10:11 |
| phiona | k1l_: http://pastebin.com/vnLgBWza | 10:12 |
| EriC^^ | crestcore: that would be pretty stripped down | 10:12 |
| k1l_ | crestcore: "dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall" lists all packages installed. then decide if you need them or not. | 10:12 |
| crestcore | eric : hmm ty but it took 1.1G of size is there any other version which can takes lesser size? | 10:13 |
| crestcore | eric : hmm ty but it took 1.1G of size is there any other version which akes lesser size? | 10:13 |
| crestcore | eric : hmm ty but it took 1.1G of size is there any other version which takes lesser size? | 10:13 |
| k1l_ | phiona: ok. there is nearly all space and all inodes used on / | 10:13 |
| SevenLies | I have a question about setting up 4 monitors in 15.10. | 10:13 |
| Logicwax | k1l_: http://pastebin.com/9E1PUS2y | 10:14 |
| k1l_ | phiona: please run a "sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean". after that please show the "dpkg -l | grep linux-headers" and put that into a pastebin | 10:14 |
| phiona | pers3us: yes . i think my root partition is full. it was partitioned at 20gb. | 10:15 |
| SevenLies | Has anyone successfully managed to get 4 monitors running? | 10:15 |
| crestcore | eric : hmm ty, but it took 1.1G of size is there any other version which takes lesser size? | 10:15 |
| EriC^^ | crestcore: i think the mini.iso lets you choose what to install, it's pretty stripped down i think | 10:16 |
| EriC^^ | crestcore: how big do you want it to be? | 10:16 |
| k1l_ | Logicwax: do you have samba shares running? | 10:17 |
| cecchini | ciao | 10:17 |
| Logicwax | k1l_: i do | 10:17 |
| Logicwax | k1l_: it goes on for 1000s of lines, tons of foreign IP addresses | 10:17 |
| crestcore | Eric : i want it to be like 300-400Mb | 10:18 |
| Logicwax | k1l_: then i see this every so often: http://pastebin.com/BLPXcaMs | 10:18 |
| phiona | k1l_: http://pastebin.com/u1bVLham | 10:18 |
| Logicwax | k1l_: you think its brute forcing my vino server? | 10:18 |
| Logicwax | i mean why the heck does gnome-session just bark out a timestamp and IP......it could be a little more verbose! | 10:19 |
| k1l_ | Logicwax: ah, its a vino server running. that it could be login attempts to that | 10:19 |
| ufk | can't increase max_connections in mysql. question at http://serverfault.com/questions/759692/increase-max-connections-in-mysql-on-ubuntu-wily | 10:19 |
| Logicwax | k1l_: so these are vino server login attempts.....NOT gnome-session remote login? (aka x-forwarding and all that jazz) right? | 10:20 |
| k1l_ | phiona: ok, just carry on with the other commands. | 10:20 |
| k1l_ | Logicwax: i am not sure. | 10:20 |
| k1l_ | Logicwax: anything from that comming in the auth.log? | 10:20 |
| Logicwax | well my fail2ban picks up some of those IPs trying to brute my sshd | 10:21 |
| Logicwax | and no, not in auth.log | 10:22 |
| vincent42 | reisio: no, there's deinitely a bug with terminator and su | 10:22 |
| k1l_ | but 5.39.220.3 seems to be known for bruteforcing | 10:22 |
| reisio | vincent42: doubt it | 10:22 |
| Logicwax | you mean publicly known? | 10:23 |
| phiona | k1l_: http://pastebin.com/nP2mv69x | 10:23 |
| vincent42 | reisio: seems you're right | 10:26 |
| reisio | :D | 10:26 |
| vincent42 | how did I do my test | 10:27 |
| reisio | you killed all terminator processes and started a fresh one | 10:27 |
| vincent42 | no | 10:27 |
| reisio | you went back in time | 10:27 |
| k1l | phiona: ok, next one | 10:28 |
| vincent42 | but I don't understand what does "su user - " do | 10:28 |
| Triffid_Hunter | vincent42: makes a login shell with that user | 10:29 |
| phiona | k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15196147/ | 10:29 |
| vincent42 | I mean, how is that different from "su - user" | 10:29 |
| vincent42 | actually, this last form, which work ! seems forbiden from the man of su | 10:29 |
| vincent42 | When - is used, it must be specified as the last su option. The other forms (-l and --login) do not have this restriction. | 10:30 |
| akkonrad | I have text document with few lines that looks like this: VARIABLE_NAME=variable.value.com | 10:30 |
| akkonrad | I would like to extract value of that variables | 10:30 |
| reisio | vincent42: man pages aren't perfect | 10:30 |
| Ben64 | su [options] [username] | 10:30 |
| reisio | my guess would be that - at the end is simply misinterpreted | 10:31 |
| Ben64 | su - username... how is - not the last option | 10:31 |
| reisio | possibly as stdin | 10:31 |
| reisio | possibly as a strange command | 10:31 |
| vincent42 | so "su - user" actually pass "user" as a command ? I don't understand | 10:31 |
| akkonrad | "VAR_NAME=var_value" - how to extract this var_value from string? | 10:31 |
| Ben64 | user is the user | 10:31 |
| vincent42 | Ben64: user is not an option of - | 10:31 |
| reisio | akkonrad: it's already in the variable | 10:31 |
| vincent42 | actually - takes no argument | 10:31 |
| akkonrad | reisio, no, it's in string | 10:31 |
| vincent42 | reisio: the thing is that only the form "su - user" works properly | 10:32 |
| akkonrad | I'm parsing command output | 10:32 |
| reisio | akkonrad: eval, cut -d '=' -f 2-, taster's choice | 10:32 |
| vincent42 | so I'm trying to understand why it should be like that | 10:32 |
| Ben64 | vincent42: yeah, just like the man page says it will | 10:32 |
| k1l | phiona: ok, we need to do some manual cleaning first to get the package-system running again to do the automatic cleanup: "sudo rm -rf /usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-4*" | 10:32 |
| vincent42 | Ben64: but the man page say the opposite , it should be "su user -" | 10:32 |
| Ben64 | it doesn't say that at all | 10:32 |
| reisio | vincent42: the man page isn't perfect, but I'm not sure whether it's wrong or not | 10:32 |
| vincent42 | Ben64: ok I see now, I confuse "last option" and "last argument" | 10:33 |
| reisio | you might see if su user -l works | 10:34 |
| reisio | for lulz | 10:34 |
| reisio | not actual usefulness | 10:34 |
| vincent42 | reisio: it does ! | 10:34 |
| reisio | vincent42: which'd be in line with the man page | 10:35 |
| phiona | k1l: im back at the prompt immediately. is that it? | 10:36 |
| k1l | phiona: yeah, there is no other output. can you chech df -h and -i if there is some more space/inodes now? | 10:37 |
| vincent42 | reisio: yeah except in the beginning they don't seem to allow user before options | 10:37 |
| vincent42 | but I guess it's fine | 10:38 |
| reisio | probably down to tradition (su - foo) vs disambiguity (not having options that are nothing but the option switch char '-') | 10:39 |
| reisio | hence, special rules | 10:39 |
| phiona | k1l: wait , i did not see the *. can i reissue the command? | 10:39 |

| Mathisen | hello is there any diffrence doing 1. sudo aptitude install NAME then 2. sudo apt install NAME .. it should not right ? still i get NAME missing when i did just apt version of it | 10:46 |
| Ben64 | Mathisen: aptitude did (does?) have a problem with multiarch, so it could possibly not work properly | 10:47 |
| k1l | Mathisen: use tab completion to make sure there is no typo. and what is "name"? | 10:47 |
| reisio | they're different, particularly if you're removing instead of installing, IIRC | 10:47 |
| Mathisen | k1l, it was a python package.. i think it was python-mysql my terminal history is gone now | 10:48 |
| Ben64 | so whats the actual problem | 10:48 |
| Mathisen | i thought it was strange.. when installed it with aptitude it worked but not with just apt | 10:49 |
| Mathisen | i just go on with my life then | 10:49 |
| k1l | there should not be a difference | 10:50 |

| dammert89 | Hi everyone. I was wondering... in my fstab file i want to mount an external hdd. It will be plugged in 90% of the time but when it isn't I don't want there to be mounting errors caused by it not finding the hdd. And then secondly, when I plug it in after system has booted that it will still automount. What should my options be in the fstab file? | 10:52 |
| Mathisen | how do i check what is using it ? | 10:52 |
| k1l | phiona: does "df -i" show less then 100% now for /? | 10:53 |
| phiona | k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15196245/.... THANK YOU VERY MUCH. | 10:53 |

| vbotka | _jd, 15.10 has 4.2 | 11:03 |
| _jd | Ben64: thank you. I guess I got my answer. Intel will be the one :) | 11:03 |
| k1l | Mathisen: what system is that? | 11:03 |
| Mathisen | k1l, wily | 11:04 |

| _jd | so I wanna give him LTS so I don't have to worry for the next 2-3 years :) | 11:04 |
| Ben64 | _jd: good idea. 14.04 comes with 3.13 normally, but with 14.04.4 you can get 4.2 | 11:06 |
| _jd | vbotka: thank you for that link | 11:06 |
| Ben64 | and then 14.04.5 will get whatever kernel 16.04 gets | 11:06 |

| k1l | Mathisen: please put the full outputs on paste.ubuntu.com | 11:08 |
| _jd | plus it's really hard to find a laptop with Atheros | 11:08 |

| Jonii | Okay, solved my problem. I had tested fglrx drivers, and after deeming them not-good, they stayed installed and kept screwing up the system, so I had to manually uninstall them :p | 11:12 |

| Ben64 | very weird | 11:12 |
| k1l | Mathisen: you have several apt processes running | 11:13 |
| Mathisen | k1l, but i dont see em | 11:13 |
| Mathisen | they must be frozen somehow | 11:14 |
| k1l | Mathisen: is there still a shell open with aptitude install python-mysql? | 11:14 |
| Mathisen | no | 11:14 |
| Mathisen | killed it long time ago | 11:14 |
| k1l | killed? | 11:14 |
| Mathisen | clicked the window away | 11:14 |
| Mathisen | did not kill pid no | 11:14 |
| k1l | please make very sure its not just minimized. | 11:14 |
| Mathisen | i am | 11:14 |
| Mathisen | 100% | 11:14 |
| Mathisen | if not guake has hidden it | 11:15 |
| k1l | killing apt/aptitude processes can cause damage to the packagesystem which will be a pain to restore | 11:15 |
| Mathisen | okej so how do i kill all guake terminals running | 11:15 |
| Mathisen | if one of them are still running in background | 11:16 |
| k1l | i dont use quake. but seems like you have 4 terminals running there | 11:16 |
| phiona | k1l: there are msgs that seem to go on forever. i cant copy them bcoz they flash by so fast. | 11:17 |
| k1l | phiona: let it run untill the end. it will take like 20times from the last rm command | 11:17 |
| Mathisen | k1l, so should i just reboot ? | 11:18 |
| Mathisen | i dont want to break my system :( | 11:18 |
| k1l | Mathisen: if you know its closed run "kill 27914" | 11:18 |
| Mathisen | k1l, yep working again now | 11:21 |
| Mathisen | it was guake | 11:21 |
| phiona | k1l: what rm command? | 11:25 |
| ren0v0 | hi, when i mount NFS the user on ubuntu shows as "98" and i can't even CD to the directory ? | 11:25 |
| Mathisen | Ben64, may i ask why asked why i was " running under uid 121 " is this a bad thing ? | 11:26 |
| k1l | phiona: the command we used to make some space before. this long command needs to remove a lot of kernels and header files. so let it run and wait untill you get a prompt. | 11:26 |
| phiona | k1l: ok . now i have PROMPT. whats next? df -h and df-i again? | 11:30 |

| bazhang | !info elementary-desktop | 11:56 |
| ubottu | Package elementary-desktop does not exist in wily | 11:56 |
| bazhang | Mathisen, thats for elementary os, is that what you are running | 11:56 |
| k1l | phiona: tha package clipgrab (from a PPA) is doing that issue | 11:56 |
| phiona | k1l: so what to do now? | 11:57 |
| Mathisen | bazhang, nope | 11:57 |
| k1l | phiona: or to be more specific, it is interfering with the other PPA package ffmpeg | 11:57 |
| k1l | phiona: try a "sudo apt-get install -f" | 11:57 |
| bazhang | Mathisen, which based on ubuntu is it | 11:58 |
| k1l | Mathisen: run a "sudo apt update"? | 11:58 |
| Mathisen | bazhang, im on 15.10 wily | 11:58 |
| Mathisen | k1l, i have done it, | 11:58 |
| k1l | Mathisen: and be aware, that you make your ubuntu a elemtary os then. | 11:58 |

| gael | hello | 12:16 |
| mattkim | k1l, ok, Thank you very much :) | 12:16 |
| k1l | Mathisen: dont know. that PPAs seem to be a mess and dont even include a 15.10 repo. and most times someone used that PPAs their system became a elementary OS. | 12:18 |
| phiona | k1l: clipgrab still holds me back...http://paste.ubuntu.com/15196668/ | 12:18 |
| dammert89 | What are the options I should use when creating the fstab entry? so far I have the following : nofail,auto,noatime,rw,user | 12:18 |
| gael | i try to extracct some emaile addresse from a txt file with grep but its not working, what is wrong: grep -o ‘[0-9a-zA-Z-_]*@[0-9a-zA-Z-_.]*.[a-zA-Z]*’ infile > outfile.txt | 12:19 |
| Mathisen | k1l, okej i remove the ppa and look for other solusion then. thx | 12:19 |
| dammert89 | My problem is that when the external is not plugged in on boot and I then plug it in it doesn't automatically mount. I have to mount it with mount -a | 12:20 |
| k1l | phiona: sudo dpkg --force-overwrite -i /var/cache/apt/archives/clipgrab_3.5.6~trusty1_i386.deb | 12:20 |
| k1l | phiona: but that is a very bad state of that PPA. | 12:21 |
| phiona | k1l: it doesnt matter. im removing clipgrab anyways. what matters is that i now have so much free space. gtg. THANKS A LOT. | 12:23 |
| k1l | phiona: i suggest to remove that noobslab ppa with "ppa-purge" | 12:23 |

| Nicholas1 | i mean how to check its integrity and reliability? | 12:51 |

| Nicholas1 | if an app shows no errors in terminal when running. does it means its fine ? | 12:52 |
| Nicholas1 | any app? | 12:52 |
| Nicholas1 | i mean i want to check , if its broken or not? | 12:53 |

| === logan_ is now known as Guest74173 | ||
| mcphail | fedoen: if you copied the file, it will no longer be sparse (unless you have specifically asked it to be). I suspect it was a sparse file in the first place, so not taking up as much space as you thought | 13:19 |
| derbie | So how do you recommend i install it? | 13:19 |

| mcphail | fedoen: to explain, type "truncate -s 1000G sparse.img". This will create a file which can expand _up_to_ 1000G, but will actually start off at, essentially, zero bytes until you write to it.

| ubottu | m1dnight_: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 13:45 |
| m1dnight_ | I know, but that's not a problem, though. | 13:45 |
| m1dnight_ | Its over LAN en not exposed to the internet. | 13:45 |
| max-m | lotuspsychje, I don't know, but sudo has a “-K” option to remove the user’s timestamp which should prompt for the password on the next invokation, as far as I know | 13:46 |
| lotuspsychje | m1dnight_: an intruder over the network can exploit vnc also.. | 13:46 |
| lotuspsychje | m1dnight_: you asked 'safe' right? | 13:46 |
| m1dnight_ | Ah, yes. Let me rephrase :D | 13:46 |

| m1dnight_ | Will installing xfce4 on a desktop ubuntu machine break the current windows manager? (unity, or what's it caled) | 13:47 |
| m1dnight_ | I just want to use XFCE for vnc only. | 13:47 |
| m1dnight_ | And leave the default window manager in tact. | 13:47 |
| lotuspsychje | m1dnight_: ah no, you can safely unstall xubuntu-desktop from your current system | 13:47 |
| lotuspsychje | install | 13:47 |

| k1l | jesper_: be sure not to dd to sdb1 but sdb | 14:21 |

| jesper_ | k1l: do you know any way to remove the ubuntu mate dd from my USB-drive? | 14:22 |
| jesper_ | or maybe wipe it clean entirely | 14:23 |
| EriC^^ | jesper_: dd creates 2 partitions | 14:23 |
| EriC^^ | 2 odd ones | 14:23 |
| jesper_ | EriC^^: oh, ok - do you know how to wipe the usb clean? | 14:24 |
| k1l | jesper_: just format the usb in gparted. create a new dos partition again | 14:24 |
| EriC^^ | jesper_: sudo gdisk /dev/sdb , press o, then w | 14:24 |
| k1l | jesper_: and i would not recommend to install over and over again, but better look at what exactly is going wrong and fix that | 14:24 |

| ubottu | jesper_: 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 | 14:31 |
| jesper_ | k1l: haha I understand | 14:31 |
| jesper_ | I think bashing went trough that and said that it might not work for later versions or something? | 14:32 |
| jesper_ | k1l: I don't exactly remember but I'll try i | 14:32 |
| jesper_ | y | 14:32 |
| k1l | jesper_: use the version to edit the kernel line in "grub". that is only for one boot and not persistent. but if that works we can make that alsways use nomodeset | 14:33 |
| jesper_ | k1l: I didn't get in to the grub menu with pressing shift | 14:34 |
| k1l | jesper_: you need to press (and hold) it right after the start | 14:35 |

| jesper_ | k1l: I held it from just after the mobo splas | 14:36 |
| jesper_ | h | 14:36 |
| BluesKaj | jesper_, left shift | 14:37 |
| k1l | left shift. | 14:37 |
| jesper_ | BluesKaj: Yup | 14:37 |
| k1l | or space on some mainboards | 14:37 |
| k1l | or even esc | 14:37 |
| Gnomethrower | hey everybody | 14:37 |
| Gnomethrower | I have a weird issue with nginx... service nginx reload gives no output | 14:37 |
| Gnomethrower | but sudo /etc/init.d/nginx reload gives the expected output ( * Reloading nginx configuration nginx [ OK ]) | 14:38 |
| jesper_ | k1l: It's really weird, usually everything is sooo laggy but when I turn it off - during the part before it acctually shuts down it doesn't lag at all | 14:38 |
| jesper_ | k1l: none of shift, space or esc worked it seems - I might just be doing it wrong though | 14:39 |
| Lothenon | maybe it helps pressing the key again and again fast directly after turning on the computer | 14:41 |
| hateball | jesper_: I tend to hammer shift rather than try and hold it | 14:41 |
| jesper_ | hateball: I tried that aswell haha | 14:42 |
| hateball | Ah | 14:42 |
| murad | :3 | 14:44 |
| k1l | jesper_: you need to press right after the bios is done loading. so try to hit it several times right from the start. | 14:44 |
| jesper_ | k1l: I have done that but I can try again | 14:45 |
| k1l | jesper_: i dont know what to tell you else than: this needs to work | 14:45 |
| jesper_ | k1l: I understand, I still find it weird that I'm missing icons though | 14:46 |
| jesper_ | k1l: Grub loaded! | 14:47 |
| k1l | jesper_: that could be due to video driver issues. that is why we should try nomodeset | 14:47 |
| jesper_ | k1l: I just pressed Ubuntu on the top and it's working now | 14:48 |
| jesper_ | k1l: No lag or anything | 14:48 |

| nemo | Some ubuntu person long ago told me how to get ubuntu to stop nagging me to update this package | 14:49 |
| nemo | I can't recall exactly what the command was. Could #ubuntu help? | 14:49 |
| nemo | (it keeps trying to replace my locally fixed .deb with the broken official package) | 14:49 |
| k1l | nemo: apt-pinning | 14:49 |
| nemo | k1l: that soudns right | 14:49 |

| nemo | k1l: is there a guide somewhere? searching now for "apt-pinning" | 14:50 |
| jesper_ | k1l: could that have done it? | 14:50 |
| k1l | jesper_: from what driver to what driver? | 14:50 |

| nemo | k1l: hrm. this doesn't quite look right. I basically want it to never update | 14:51 |
| nemo | k1l: the guide I'm reading seems more oriented at a release/version. but it is trying to replace the local build w/ an upstream identical version | 14:51 |
| jesper_ | k1l: from the xorg to the nvidia proprietary 352.63 | 14:51 |
| jesper_ | k1l: proprietary, tested drivers | 14:51 |
| nemo | k1l: oooh. that guide looks like it has the command "hold" | 14:51 |
| k1l | jesper_: i thought you were already on that nvidia driver. that was what you told me last time | 14:51 |
| nemo | that probably is what I want | 14:51 |
| k1l | nemo: yes, setting in hold is the thing to do | 14:52 |
| jesper_ | k1l: I was on the X.org driver, I don't think I knew which driver I was using yesterday | 14:52 |
| swenzel | how do I see which BLAS library I've got? | 14:52 |
| nemo | k1l: echo opensc hold | dpkg --set-selections seems to have worked. thanks! | 14:52 |
| k1l | jesper_: ok. so that is sorted now. | 14:52 |

| Tachyon_ | so I have to run "sudo apt-get install phoronix-test-suite" or something ? | 15:05 |
| hateball | Tachyon_: so you would do "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-graphics-drivers-361" | 15:05 |
| pambua | k1l, how do I fix it? | 15:05 |

| DexDeadly | could this be my nas? | 17:16 |
| Bassem | k1l, thats for mount command,but i want it to be done automatically with Ubuntu not manually to be mounted as exec | 17:17 |
| DexDeadly | if i create a directory on my windows machine in the same folder it creates as the drwxrwxrwx | 17:17 |

| adeon_ | anyone in here have a xps 9343? | 18:18 |
| Neepu | Hi. Will a 14.04 LTS / 15.10 edition of Ubuntu easily be upgraded to 16.04 LTS? | 18:19 |
| Kang0 | what is port forwarding and why it is used or useful | 18:20 |
| Neepu | Kang0 port forwarding is to open up a port, and make it available to the internet from your computer. | 18:20 |
| Neepu | tldr edition, if you want to learn more about it read about NAT. | 18:21 |
| adeon_ | its so that the world can see your internal service that is being ran | 18:21 |
| Kang0 | I m not sure what are ports and why it is required even though physical ports are accessible to all | 18:21 |
| adeon_ | its used for gaming... http-webservers. services | 18:22 |
| Neepu | to access the internet, you need a IP address and port. For www.google.com, it would be 81.167.35.106:80 | 18:22 |
| Neepu | where 80 is the port. | 18:22 |
| adeon_ | Kango, pretend your running a web server that only you can see it at home, then you go to starbucks expecting to be able to reach it, but you wont unless you do port forwarding. | 18:22 |
| Neepu | to access a website/service* | 18:23 |
| Kang0 | Oh i see i thought earlier it is only ip address | 18:24 |
| Kang0 | Neepu | 18:24 |
| ubuntu-mate | hey | 18:24 |
| Kang0 | Same applicable for ftp? | 18:24 |
| Neepu | yep, except different port | 18:24 |
| === thomas_ is now known as Guest92804 | ||
| Kang0 | What is ftp port no?? | 18:24 |
| Neepu | 21 | 18:24 |
| Neepu | i think.. | 18:24 |
| QORRiE | 21 is default FTP port, yes | 18:25 |
| Kang0 | Is it fixed irrespective of ftp address? | 18:25 |
| Craigwell | This is a new one to me.. | 18:25 |
| QORRiE | Kang0, no, any port could be used by FTP software | 18:25 |
| Craigwell | For whatever reason, 14.04 is defaulting to trying to install on the thumbdrive I'm booting from....... ?! | 18:25 |
| Kang0 | Can we use http address instead of ftp address for file transfer? | 18:25 |
| Craigwell | doesn't want to cooperate. | 18:25 |
| Kang0 | Which is faster ftp or http? | 18:26 |
| k1l | http | 18:26 |
| adeon_ | That all depends on your internet speed | 18:26 |
| QORRiE | i would expect FTP to be faster, because of the lack of headers; it's just files being transferred | 18:26 |
| QORRiE | but it pbly makes no difference | 18:27 |
| QORRiE | in practice | 18:27 |
| Neepu | HTTP is more responsive for request-response of small files, but FTP may be better for large files if tuned properly. FTP used to be generally considered faster. | 18:27 |
| ouroumov__ | Craigwell, pretty sure you can pick the drive with the installation wizard | 18:27 |
| C0r3 | I made a bootable usb for installing ubuntu 14.04 LTS. When I boot my pd, I'm getting an error '/casper/vmlinux.efi' file not found. And when I check the file opening the usb in pc I can locate the file. | 18:27 |
| Craigwell | ouroumov__ yeah something else is going on.. It's a work computer, and I don't think it likes the fact there are 3 windows partitions as primary, and i made one primary for ext4. | 18:27 |
| Craigwell | using gparted | 18:28 |
| Kang0 | Http ftp what are other transfer methods?? | 18:28 |
| linuxlove | i cant find /etc/init.d/rc5.d in ubuntu15.10 | 18:28 |
| adeon_ | ssh/sftp/scp is the same | 18:28 |
| Kang0 | Does wifi Bluetooth also carry unique port no? | 18:28 |
| Kang0 | What is use if ssh or sftp? | 18:28 |
| alkisg | C0r3: is the usb formatted as ntfs? efi doesn't read ntfs | 18:29 |
| reisio | Kang0: hrmm? | 18:29 |
| C0r3 | alkisg: FAT | 18:29 |
| Craigwell | So, if I use the install wizard and choose "something else", select the correct sda for bootloader, will it automatically install on my ext4 partition? Should I change mount point on it to / ? | 18:29 |
| Gallomimia | Kang0: bluetooth and wifi don't have "ports" | 18:29 |
| Kang0 | Why?? | 18:29 |
| alkisg | C0r3: how did you make the stick? did you use some software or tutorial, or did you use the dd method? | 18:30 |
| reisio | Kang0: why what? | 18:30 |
| C0r3 | alkisg: When I check in the properties of the usb it says, Filesystem type: msdos | 18:30 |
| Kang0 | So which items require port nos and which not? | 18:30 |
| C0r3 | alkisg: I used 'Start Up Disk Creator' in ubuntu | 18:30 |
| adeon_ | Craigwell make sure you back up before messing with your bootloader :-p | 18:30 |
| Gallomimia | tcp and udp networking protocols. | 18:30 |
| alkisg | C0r3: sudo blkid should tell you the type | 18:30 |
| Craigwell | adeon_ grub usually doesn't ruin my day, | 18:30 |
| Kang0 | So wifi or Bluetooth is not part of tcp and udp? Gallomimia | 18:31 |
| Gallomimia | Kang0: no. that's a different layer of the network | 18:31 |
| Craigwell | adeon_ but just to be clear, i should install bootloader on sda, correct? not on sda4 (in this case the ext4 partition i wish to use) | 18:31 |
| Gallomimia | you can transport tcp and udp over those wireless protocols. then it has ports. but tcp and udp won't know about whether it's wireless or not | 18:31 |
| adeon_ | I usually install it on sda and it hasnt gave me any issues | 18:32 |
| adeon_ | sda# is usually within that partition number | 18:32 |
| C0r3 | alkisg: I think its vfat | 18:32 |
| alkisg | C0r3: is it easy for you to try `sudo dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdb, where sdb is the stick? But do watch out not to erase any disks if sdb is a disk and not the stick... I'm not sure if the ubuntu usb creator properly supports efi | 18:32 |
| linuxlove | hey guys | 18:32 |
| linuxlove | why cant i find /etc/init.d/rc5.d in ubuntu | 18:33 |
| linuxlove | ? | 18:33 |
| Gallomimia | yes please be careful with dd. be sure before you press enter | 18:33 |
| Craigwell | adeon_ yeah, thats what i was thinking. telling me to select a mount point / is sufficient, no? I'm not splitting it up for upgrade purposes or anything | 18:33 |
| ouroumov__ | C0r3, if you go with dd you should type "sync" after the dd command and wait for the prompt to return | 18:33 |
| k1l | linuxlove: ubuntu uses systemd since 15.04 | 18:33 |
| ouroumov__ | To flush the I/O buffer | 18:34 |
| Kang0 | Gallomimia may i ask this? What is tcp and udp? And what do you mean by transport? | 18:34 |
| Gallomimia | i think you should study more about networking friend | 18:34 |
| Craigwell | adeon_ I think it's good now, I just never saw the wizard default to wanting to install on the ..install media itself! weird | 18:34 |
| adeon_ | cragiwell, it should be fine | 18:34 |
| adeon_ | yea, ususally happens on upgrader too | 18:34 |

| === karin is now known as kkarin | ||
| samBiotic | will 16.04 support root on zfs? | 18:36 |

| Craigwell | but i wont hibernate this i guess, so it's all good. plenty of ram | 18:36 |

| ouroumov__ | C0r3, after those two steps you'll have a "burned" USB stick | 18:37 |

| alkisg | C0r3: you've booted with the usb stick and you want to know if you've booted from the stick or from the internal disk? | 18:46 |
| qwerkus | <alkisg> problem is: if plugged onto the mobo, I can't even see /dev/sdb1 - nothing. Just a corrupted partition table. When plugged in the external hdd case, if works fine. ??? | 18:46 |
| C0r3 | alkisg: No no. I have used dd to make my usb bootable. Now can I check it without restarting my pc | 18:47 |
| qwerkus | <alkisg> I wonder if /dev/sdb1 is conflicting with /dev/sda1, as there can only be one uefi boot partition. One Idea would be to disable it - what do you think ? | 18:47 |
| nicomachus | C0r3: what do you mean check it? an MD5 sum? | 18:47 |
| alkisg | qwerkus: no, I don't think it can conflict that way. dmesg should tell you the issue, but maybe you could use gparted and create a new proper partition table? (losing the data) | 18:48 |
| C0r3 | nicomachus: Nothing leave. I'll restart and check it. I wanted a way to verify whether my usb drive is bootable or not. Thanks any way | 18:48 |
| C0r3 | :) | 18:48 |
| alkisg | C0r3: you cannot easily test it, no. You could with kvm but it's a bit of a trouble, better just reboot. | 18:48 |

| alkisg | qwerkus: some tools like testdisk also try to fix problematic gpt cases, maybe that will save your data (but do backup if it's valuable) | 18:49 |
| k1l | linuxlove: what program? | 18:50 |
| linuxlove | k1l, noip client | 18:50 |
| linuxlove | i have readme file for it | 18:50 |
| linuxlove | but | 18:50 |
| linuxlove | it is not for systemed | 18:50 |
| k1l | linuxlove: do you have a router on your network? doesnt that offer a client? | 18:51 |
| linuxlove | k1l, problem is that i need to run noip2 program from start up | 18:52 |
| qwerkus | <alkisg> I can't backup - not enough space on other disks. Brb checking for dmesg | 18:52 |
| linuxlove | because when i restart i have to run noip2 command again | 18:52 |
| k1l | linuxlove: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers#Automatic_starting | 18:53 |
| alkisg | linuxlove: if it's a program that runs in a window (inside the user session), read this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/37957/how-do-i-manage-applications-on-startup-in-gnome-3 | 18:54 |
| jamie1 | hey im having and odd issue, my computer after going to sleep (lid close) the wifi no longer works correctly, when i try to connect to wifi it just has the spinner like its looking and says no networks found and i have to reboot to get it work correctly again | 18:56 |
| qwerkus | alkisg: dmesg output is simple: sda: unknown partition table | 18:57 |
| reisio | jamie1: see if just restarting the networkmanager service fixes it | 18:58 |
| jamie1 | reisio: sudo networkmanager restart? | 18:58 |
| jamie1 | or restart networkmanager | 18:58 |
| alkisg | qwerkus: testdisk has a read-only mode, it will tell you more details about what's wrong with your partition table... you could back it up with dd, and play with testdisk, but I'm afraid in the end you'll need to write it to get the pc to see it | 18:58 |
| reisio | probably sudo service network-manager restart | 18:59 |
| jamie1 | okay, will do, thanks | 18:59 |

| alkisg | Ouch | 19:13 |
| alkisg | That probably removed ubuntu-desktop too then? | 19:13 |
| scrabcakes | would you like me to shout louder from this deep hole I have dug? | 19:13 |
| alkisg | Maybe `sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop` ? | 19:14 |
| scrabcakes | that doesn't work either, it still says unmet dependencies | 19:14 |
| alkisg | Which ones? | 19:14 |
| C0r3 | ouroumov__: `sync` without any arguments right? | 19:14 |
| alkisg | scrabcakes: You run `sudo apt-get update` before apt-get install, right? | 19:15 |
| scrabcakes | yes | 19:15 |
| alkisg | OK, put the output of apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, to paste.ubuntu.com... | 19:15 |
| alkisg | You can use the pastebinit package, or scp if you know it | 19:15 |
| scrabcakes | yes, do you want install ubuntu-desktop or lightdm? lightdm has more problems | 19:15 |
| alkisg | ubuntu-desktop | 19:16 |
| alkisg | Or put both of them, apt-get install ubuntu-desktop lightdm | 19:16 |
| alkisg | ok, it depends on lightdm, it's the same in any case | 19:16 |

| ouroumov__ | uhm | 19:31 |
| trunk_monkey | whois | 19:32 |
| ouroumov__ | C0r3, did you check your .iso's checksum before burning it? | 19:32 |
| Loshki | kev999: I don't understand. You say your windows pc putty client crashed. That should have no effect on the *server*. ? | 19:33 |
| C0r3 | ouroumov__: No. How to do that? | 19:34 |
| kev999 | Think I disabled password login, but was long time ago - forgot what step i took (stupid I know) | 19:34 |
| kev999 | I get access denied - PAM auth.log not very helpful | 19:35 |
| adeon_ | kev999 do you have access to that machine physically or locally/ | 19:35 |
| ouroumov__ | C0r3, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto | 19:35 |
| kev999 | yes - access to both machines | 19:35 |
| C0r3 | ouroumov__: Okay! | 19:35 |
| adeon_ | so then just update the sshd_config that way | 19:35 |
| adeon_ | if you dont have the password of the unit, drop to a root shell and change it | 19:36 |
| kev999 | I have always used root - it's a local test server I have updated line permitrootlogin yes | 19:37 |
| adeon_ | if you have root access you should be fine, just modify everything you need on that machine, generate a new key if you need it then you can login from external. I dont recomend you having a root account | 19:38 |
| adeon_ | for ssh tho | 19:38 |
| scrabcakes | alkisg: did you leave? >< | 19:38 |
| kev999 | it's currently got usepam yes and in the (pam) comments it says pam authentication may bypass permitroot login - not sure why that would be | 19:38 |

| k1l | rasalghul: what trash folder? | 19:41 |
| rasalghul | It belongs to root | 19:41 |
| adeon_ | kev999 yes, you canalso get the keys locally within that server | 19:41 |
| k1l | rasalghul: which location? | 19:41 |
| rasalghul | kil, trash | 19:41 |
| adeon_ | kev999 wieht re do it or get the keys from within the server | 19:42 |
| adeon_ | either' | 19:42 |
| k1l | rasalghul: /path/to/where ? | 19:42 |
| scrabcakes | can anyone else help? I have unmet deps but they are in fact installed. also might have "held packages" | 19:42 |
| ioria | scrabcakes, did you install ppa ? xorg-edgers precisely ? | 19:43 |
| adeon_ | kev999 for security purposes i would not recommend you leave regular login enabled | 19:43 |
| kev999 | adeon_ thanks for your help - I'll try that - point on root SSH noted - thanks | 19:43 |
| rasalghul | kil, /home/my_user/.local/share | 19:43 |
| k1l | rasalghul: either you messed with sudo and root or you mean the trash folder on another partition/drive made by the filesystem. | 19:43 |
| rasalghul | belongs to root but it is my account | 19:43 |
| kev999 | where is the regular login enabled set ? are you talking about root? | 19:43 |
| scrabcakes | ioria: what do you mean? | 19:44 |
| k1l | rasalghul: ok, so you messed with root? i guess you used sudo nautilus or such. so now use "chown" to get it back: sudo chown username:username /home/username/.local/share/Trash | 19:45 |
| ioria | scrabcakes, how did you install nvidia drivers ? | 19:45 |
| scrabcakes | ioria: install nvidia-current. I then removed them. I then removed lightdm as per a post but can't reinstall it! | 19:45 |
| ioria | scrabcakes, don't use ppa ? | 19:46 |
| rasalghul | kil, is because I can't delete files to trash, shows me this: You can not move "X" to the trash. Want to delete it immediately ? | 19:46 |
| scrabcakes | ioria: how can I not use ppa? | 19:46 |
| rasalghul | kil, and I look for Trash permission and belongs to root | 19:47 |
| rasalghul | kil, I want make it trash mine | 19:47 |
| rasalghul | it's that ok? | 19:48 |
| ioria | scrabcakes, ppa are extra repos that can cause conflicts .... can you paste ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d ? | 19:48 |

I've tried everything I found online already (namely: | 20:06 |
| wdbl | "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-guest-dkms" and the previously mentioned drivers dialog.) | 20:06 |

| scrabcakes | ioria: I'm on irc on laptop, on console on desktop (the broken one) | 20:09 |
| wdbl | reisio: Why do I have to install it from the CD though? Ubuntu used to install everything that I needed during installation. This seems like a major regression. | 20:09 |

| reisio | just try it, as it is shown on the page I linked | 20:15 |
| wdbl | I'm pretty sure it will work, but I like to know what commands do | 20:15 |

| scrabcakes | ioria: same error | 20:16 |

| reisio | wdbl: not sure why you need to figure that out | 20:17 |
| reisio | you're already relying on VirtualBox | 20:17 |
| reisio | the "cd" is _in_ the repository | 20:17 |
| reisio | that's how it's available via the menu | 20:17 |
| wdbl | OK, so why is there even a package in the repository? | 20:17 |
| ioria | scrabcakes, sudo apt-get purge libcheese7 | 20:17 |
| wdbl | Maybe I'll just follow all those instructs and then install it from the repo instead of from the cd | 20:17 |
| scrabcakes | ioria: not installed | 20:18 |
| wdbl | (because the CD is just a file on the host machine, and the repo will get updates) | 20:18 |
| wdbl | that's why I prefer the repo | 20:18 |
| reisio | wdbl: "Note: Ubuntu/Debian users might want to install the dkms package to ensure that the VirtualBox host kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt and vboxnetadp) are properly updated if the linux kernel version changes during the next apt-get upgrade." | 20:18 |
| ioria | scrabcakes, try again apt-cache depends ubuntu-desktop | awk '/Depends:/ {print $2}' | xargs sudo apt-get -y install --reinstall | 20:18 |

| sorinello | apw, Hello. Do you have an estimate until 1548587 is shipped via official channels ? | 20:26 |
| reisio | wdbl: should be able to use just intel or just nvidia with basically zero fiddling, FYI | 20:27 |
| k1l | ebolaa: did you check the md5sum of the iso? | 20:27 |
| scrabcakes | ioria: I have no video driver currently, it was nvidia... then nouveau... then nvidia :P | 20:27 |

| k1l | ebolaa: what ubuntu exactly? | 20:28 |
| ebolaa | i got 500 ssd split in half other half just waitting on linux | 20:28 |

| scrabcakes | ioria: it comes up with lots of 'not installed so not removed' | 20:29 |
| ebolaa | k1l any idea ? | 20:29 |
| sstory | Is there any software that allows scanning from the command line? | 20:30 |
| wdbl | reisio: yeah, I don't really need it to be performant but it was broken - and I did do a reboot after deleting Unknown Display and it showed up again and still had mouse trails | 20:30 |
| ioria | scrabcakes, sudo lshw -c Video | 20:30 |

| trunk_monkey | Yeah intel 330; lenovo thinkpad t420s | 21:28 |
| scwizard | strange that the ubuntu keyserver would work and the gnupg one would not | 21:28 |
| ouroumov__ | trunk_monkey, maybe you can use Compton with i3 | 21:28 |
| trunk_monkey | actually, compton seems to hvae cleared things up | 21:28 |
| Ben64 | trunk_monkey: no problem. could be your gpu, gpu driver, firefox's hardware acceleration, something weirder | 21:28 |

| rud0lf | i've googled for hours and no result :( | 21:40 |
| Ben64 | real solution is to stop using skype | 21:41 |
| trunk_monkey | Skype apparently stopped linux support, I tweeted to bitch at them the otherday, top post on /r/linux | 21:41 |

| rud0lf | i see them fine, and my webcam works ok in preview in skype options | 21:43 |
| rud0lf | seems like skype has problem with timing or a codec, but my english is not well enough to figure out a proper google query | 21:44 |
| trunk_monkey | have you tried another service, maybe google hangouts? | 21:45 |
| rud0lf | the person i chat with has preinstalled skype in his windows machine | 21:46 |
| ouroumov__ | <rud0lf> microsoft doesn't like linux users, does it? :) -> Microsoft doesn't like users. | 21:46 |
| rud0lf | can't really use anything else | 21:46 |
| Ben64 | hangouts only needs a browser | 21:47 |

| jackwebs | and freezing from time to time | 23:27 |
| squinty | jackwebs, might want to install bleachbit (similar to ccleaner for windows) and see if it can clear some junk | 23:28 |
| jackwebs | squinty, cheers, I'll have a look. I'm toying with the idea of switching over to lxde or something to see if that helps | 23:30 |
| jackwebs | I've already disabled all the unity animations and what have you | 23:30 |
| squinty | b0s3d, you should be prompted for the passphrase after starting the ssh name@ip. it is the passphrase (password) you entered which you were prompted for when you generated your keys | 23:30 |
| b0s3d | squinty: well i only get the usually password as if i was logging in with ssh without any keyfile installed | 23:31 |

| squinty | b0s3d, after generating the keys you will have to use a regular password to ssh into the host and copy the keys over (ssh-copy-id <username>@<host>) then restart ssh (sudo service ssh restart) | 23:38 |
| b0s3d | ok :) | 23:38 |
| b0s3d | lol, you did some magic right there squinty :P i did try it before but it worked now, thanks alot +1 | 23:39 |
| squinty | b0s3d, good to hear :-) | 23:40 |
| squinty | b0s3d, btw, if you want to access a gui program on the host, you can use -X to accomplish that ssh -X user@ip | 23:42 |
| b0s3d | alright, awesome | 23:43 |
| Madhumper69 | anybody know a bit of the GRE port 47 for VPN with PPTP 1723 USING UFW??? i tried a few things but no go such as http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1113911 | 23:44 |
| SchrodingersScat | squinty: you don't have to restart ssh for ssh-copy-id, afaik. | 23:45 |
| Madhumper69 | apperently GRE is a special port that needs to be configured into ufw firewall for vpn to work its a nightmare! | 23:45 |
