[00:02] webigor: put all the errormessages into paste.ubuntu.com and show the link here [00:02] k1l: the keys just beep after a while [00:02] ok [00:02] rem505:Ctrl+Alt+F1 [00:03] gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/compiz [00:03] http://paste.ubuntu.com/15223558/ [00:04] rem505: did you see the choose language screen etc? [00:04] k1l: no it never got to that [00:04] webigor: please put a "apt-cache policy gimp" on that paste [00:04] rem505: how did you create that usb? [00:05] k1l: its a dvd from an iso [00:05] rem505: hmm === sins-_w is now known as sins- [00:06] k1l this laptop does not have a usb boot option [00:06] uh its that old? than your only chance is the Lubuntu iso [00:06] http://paste.ubuntu.com/15223604/ [00:06] k1l ok i'll try that, thnks [00:10] webigor: what command did you use for that depency errors? [00:10] its got Brawndo...its what plants crave [00:11] k1l: It may well have a usb boot, but I tried the SD card with no luck. [00:11] k1l: it's ubuntu's software center [00:11] webigor: close software-center. then in terminal do "sudo apt update && sudo install gimp" [00:13] Hi everyone! I have some simple code I wrote but it won't let me run it from the Terminal, it keeps saying command not found? [00:14] sudo ./name_of_project.rb === sins-_w is now known as sins- [00:15] aah [00:15] Darmani: chmod +x ./name_of_project.rb first? [00:16] reisio: I have to run it like that? [00:17] Darmani, this is the file is executable [00:17] is there anyone knows about "programming"? [00:17] Then you can run it using ./name_of_project.rb [00:17] ouroumov_: yeah it's just a simple web server [00:17] webigor, head over towards #programming [00:18] Darmani: you must make the file executable, with command chmod u+x [00:18] CyberGabber: Ohhhh [00:18] Why is that? If you don't mind me asking? [00:18] good morning ladies and gentlenerds :) [00:19] Darmani: see under step3 on http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2009/10/ruby-hello-world-example-how-to-write-and-execute-ruby-program-on-unix-os/ [00:19] to run it, you use ./name_of_project.rb [00:19] but to run it, it must be executable, which is what chmod +x does [00:19] aah, there's 5.20AM [00:19] What's morning? [00:19] So for all the scripts I make I have to run that command first? [00:20] try chmod +x * [00:20] Darmani: if you don't want to specify the interpreter, yup === sins-_w is now known as sins- [00:20] Darmani: as standard files are not +x by default. that is not to let any code execute automatically. its a security feature [00:20] Darmani: don't do what webigor said :p [00:20] or chmod+x ./* [00:20] Darmani: For the ones you intend to run, yes. [00:20] Darmani: sudo ruby ./name_of_project.rb would probably work [00:20] it'll make everything exectuble [00:20] hi, newbie here, i have novnc server running on an ubuntu cloud environment and am running a cpp program that comes back "Unable to connect to the X display" , can you give me a hint to trak this down, i don't know much about networks. thanks!! [00:20] webigor: which is probably not what he wants [00:21] Darmani: think on people on windows running .exe files that got named "a.person.naked.jpg.exe" [00:21] ah okay. I think I get it. [00:21] If I specified an interpreter then I wouldn't have to type that command anymore correct? [00:22] aah, i entered one repo too much times, how i can delete? [00:22] webigor: what do you mean? === holdsworth_ is now known as holdsworth [00:23] i entered APT line too many times [00:23] webigor: which apt line? [00:24] Darmani: Right, because then it's ruby you execute, and it already has execute bit. The script only needs to be readable in that case [00:24] Darmani: I recommend reading http://mywiki.wooledge.org/Permissions to learn about how unix permission work [00:24] how2specifyinterpreter.jpg? [00:25] Why Ruby is too old in Ubuntu's repos? [00:25] It's 1.9.x but there's 2.x [00:25] too old for what [00:26] webigor: ubuntu 14.04 is on the state of pre april 2014. [00:26] Darmani: with ./foo, you say "please run foo, foo will make it apparent what to run itself via" [00:26] Darmani: with ruby ./foo, you say "ruby, run this, I want you to consider it ruby source" [00:27] in the latter case, it is merely input, and needn't be executable [00:27] i need latest ruby [00:27] webigor: 'latest' isn't a version [00:27] reisio: That's what I was doing in the first place. sudo ./name_of_file.rb [00:27] Darmani: sudo is not an interpreter of ruby source code [00:27] I need rails 4, but i can't install it as it requires Ruby 2.x [00:27] Darmani: it's occasionally an interpreter of executable files, hence chmod +x [00:28] webigor: so update? [00:28] Ruby? [00:28] or ubuntu [00:28] reisio: Okay, gotcha. [00:28] webigor: whichever [00:29] Hello [00:30] Am trying to dual boot between windows 7 and parted magic but its failing [00:31] With the following error [00:31] losetup: /dev/loop252: No such file or directory [00:31] mount: unknown filesystem type 'squashfs' [00:31] Mounting the fu.sqfs failed [00:31] Ok so i get ubuntu to boot but now i get lots of crashing graphic issues.

[00:35] i'll try that [00:35] why would we care about microsoft drivers in this channel? [00:35] and why would ubuntu just plain tell you they're "up to date" that sounds like windows [00:36] ubuntu106: hold on here a second.. back the truck up [00:36] ok [00:37] now, what is going on here?

[00:38] like freezing [00:38] does that make sense to you? [00:38] then yellow [00:38] im checking in both [00:38] i really don't care if your windows install works [00:38] ill check ubuntu [00:39] to do that, you must reboot?

[04:06] it wont ask for the pin === linuxmodder|afk is now known as linuxmodder [04:06] pr0metheu5: could be your bios/u/efi settings have some kind of terrible s/ata defaults [04:08] wjat [04:08] what should be the defaults? [04:10] pr0metheu5: something that allows your devices to be seen by GNU/Linux [04:12] I installed Linux on this laptop about a year ago and it was fine [04:12] but I had to replace my hard disk because the last one failed, and I installed Windows 10 on the new one [04:13] pr0metheu5: that's irrelevant :) [04:14] could it be this new hd is incompatible somehow?

[06:27] so it did not downloaded all [06:28] Yes, files use space in your disk [06:28] oppa: that are the upgrades it will download [06:28] oppa: doing upgrades is recommended === sins-_w_k is now known as sins- [06:28] ah ok. And to install them all? [06:29] oppa: yes [06:30] how to instal them all after they are 100% downloaded? [06:31] oppa: Why do you want to download and install in separate steps? [06:32] No, i just want to download all and when it is 100% update all, i have a terrible connection [06:34] oppa: "sudo apt-get upgrade" will do that. It downloads all of the available updates then installs them. [06:35] that is the problem, i want to download only and be me who decide when to install them === sins-_w_k is now known as sins- [06:47] oppa: I can't find any built in way to do that. You could script a combination of parsing "apt-get upgrade"s output and feed that list of packages to "apt-get download". [06:49] oppa: Note that "apt-get download" downloads the packages to the current directory, and you can then use "sudo dpkg -i *.deb" within that directory, but be sure that the directory you choose to run apt-get download and dpkg from don't have any other .deb files already in them. === percY-_ is now known as percY- [06:51] Hello.

[07:36] sta7ic: backup a system from mechanical to ssd isnt the way to go [07:36] mount the filesystems, copy files with rsync [07:36] sta7ic: you will benefit the most with a clean ubuntu install to your ssd, speed, fstab,etc [07:36] geirha: so boot into flash drive, mount /dev/sda and /dev/sdb and then just copy between the two? [07:37] lotuspsychje: what facts are u basing that off of? the 256 drive is also ssd [07:37] the 256 gb drive is a semi new install [07:38] sta7ic: sure [07:38] sta7ic: you never mentioned that [07:38] i didnt thnik it was relavent === dummy_ is now known as milan [07:39] geirha: so ill make the boot partition similar in size...and then the root FS will be a lot smaller but should be fine since there isnt much on there.. [07:40] the only hardware difference is the 256 GB SSD is sata 6 and the 80 GB is sata 3 but her laptop sata port is only 3gbps so shouldnt matte [07:41] ok thanks geirha and lotuspsychje...ill give it a shot and if it doesnt work ill resort back to clean install...thankx [07:42] sta7ic: make sure you got the latest firmware on your ssd, but you might already know that === sins-_w_k_g is now known as sins- [07:43] sta7ic: Why bother with a separate /boot/ partition at all?

[07:46] sta7ic: Also, if this machine is UEFI based then you'll need to create an EFI System Partition on the new drive as well. [07:46] milan: can you find your file with the 'whereis' command? [07:46] lotuspsychje: yeah believe me im all about the clean system like i said, i agree with u, but i want this to be fast and i dont want to have to go through all her sheet. [07:47] lotuspsychje: i mean, is there also htdocs in here? [07:47] Jordan_U: its an older laptop [07:47] but it may be..ill check for that thx [07:48] sta7ic: If it's bios based and the SSD uses GPT then you'll either need to create a BIOS Boot Partition or convert to an msdos partition table. [07:48] sta7ic: im sure there are handy browser addons to backup configs, also her /home (hidden folders) contain handy configs of stuff [07:48] thats fine...i dobut drives automatically select GPT unless you ask for it [07:49] lotuspsychje: who knows what she installed, I set up VMware for her, wine...and a bunch of project management stuff shes been downloading [07:49] i dont want to spend my sunday going through her stuff for $0 dollars but shes a friends broke as mom so im jsut being nice [07:49] heh [07:51] sta7ic: important data= backup to external always [07:51] i might be able to recover her windows 5400 rpm drive so hopefully she'll want that back and my day is done..

[09:08] Jordan_U: i read the source [09:09] it is very outdated and badly made [09:09] which is why i have silent data corruption in the first place [09:09] JyZyXEL: Are you expecting that your drive is doing inline dedup/compression?

[09:35] because an empty pattern matches everything [09:36] (because every line contains the empty string) === ggherdov_ is now known as ggherdov [09:37] jpmh: "Obtain patterns from FILE, one per line. The empty file contains zero patterns, and therefore matches nothing." (from "man grep") [09:38] that answers the bit they already expected :P [09:38] Jordan U, yes, I agree te problem is that I am asking why does it return the pattern when I call it with a file that is not empty but has one empty line [09:38] how can I find the config file for an app (eg radiotray)? [09:39] jpmh: dax answered that above. [09:39] Jordan U, it works as I expected and you explain on the empty file, it is when the file contains an empty line, actually even if other lines are legit [09:39] empty lines match everything [09:40] because empty line = zero-length pattern = empty string = a subset of every string [09:40] dax, but my patter is NOT empty, this is what I am missing [09:40] jpmh: echo b | grep "" # You'll see that this also matches and prints "b" [09:41] "pattern" refers to the regex, not to your input [09:41] dax, but surely the echoed b is the patter OR regEX - this is what I am not understanding here. And that does not match an emoty line [09:42] echo input | grep pattern [09:42] the input is "b", it's matched against the pattern "". "" is present in every string, so it's present in "b", so "b" is output [09:42] dax, I do not understand your last comment, please explain [09:42] jpmh: Do you understand why the following command *does* print "b"? : echo b | grep "" [09:43] dax, I mean the one pvreious to your last, they crossed [09:43] jpmh: in the commands you have been giving, "b" is not what it is searching FOR, it's what it is searching [09:43] the contents of temp.lst are a set of patterns, one per line, that it is searching FOR [09:44] so, if temp.lst contains a blank line, it searches "b" for the empty string, which it finds [09:44] dax, ty, that was what I was missing here [09:44] :) [09:44] Sometimes when im shuting down my PC it hangs on Shutdown logo and i have to manualy press poweroff button on my PC. Can someone help me fix it? [09:44] jpmh: grep pattern filename #Will search for the given pattern in the given file [09:45] dax, just so I am certain here, you are saying that it is looking for each line of my file, temp.lst to see if it matches the "b", right? [09:45] Jordan, so how do I use grep to search through the file with the pattern that I am searching for comming from srdin? [09:46] jpmh: What is your end goal in doing that? [09:46] jpmh: grep 'pattern' file.txt [09:46] Jordan, I need to use this in a procmail recipe and so the pattern that I want to search for, in the file, comes from the execution of formail [09:47] mharris, got it, ty [09:47] jpmh: the pattern comes from formail? [09:47] guys, I thank you all so much. This is why this room is so great [09:47] mharris, yes it will [09:47] jpmh: echo pattern | grep -f - filetosearch [09:48] jpmh: the -f - means "the file to read patterns from is stdin" [09:48] dax, that works well too. Thank you [09:48] Sometimes when im shuting down my PC it hangs on Shutdown logo and i have to manualy press poweroff button on my PC. Can someone help me fix it? [09:50] jpmh: I personally think that it would be more clear, and easier to debug, to use something like the following: pattern="$(some procmail command)"; grep "$pattern" filename [09:51] Jordan U, that too makes sense [09:51] jpmh: That will only get you one pattern though. If you really want to have multiple patterns, one per line (it sounds like you don't) then the "-f -" solution is better. [09:52] !tab | jpmh [09:52] jpmh: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.

[10:52] hiexpo: it give a black theme for the toolbars and one has to use highcontrast icons. and the scroll up and down is a bit buggy [10:53] bishops, i will have to check that out [10:54] hiexpo: thanks, i'm using ubuntu 15.10 [10:54] tete_: you'll need something to boot from if your root partition is encrypted, yes [10:54] djr013, thanks, thats what i thought [10:54] okay bishops [10:54] I'm not sure if 200 MB will be enough though, make sure you double check that [10:55] 325 [10:55] tete_: Some distributions mount the EFI System Partition to /boot/ instead of /boot/efi/ but Ubuntu's default, and upstream grub's recommendation, is to have the ESP mounted to /boot/efi/. So for a LUKS encrypted root, I would strongly recommend both an EFI System Partition and a separate /boot/ partition. [10:55] Ubuntu tends to accumulate kernel versions, keeping old versions in case of bugs [10:56] djr013, recommendation from ubuntu is 200mb [10:56] required: 100mb, recommended: 200mb - but windows uses a lot more [10:56] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [10:56] Size: minimum 100Mib. 200MiB recommended. [10:56] should i use 300? or even more? [10:58] tete_: 200 Mib is fine for an ESP, but I would recommend 1 GiB for /boot/ unless you're particularly low on disk space. [10:58] hello [10:58] tete_: /boot/efi partitions can be pretty small, but /boot partitions are larger [10:58] i know, i would use 1gb for /boot because of different kernel versions during updates etc. [10:58] by default, can regular users do System V IPC? === sins-_w_k_g_g_q is now known as sins- [10:58] thanks for the help :) [11:02] one last question: should the esp also be raid'ed ? or should i create this on each disk outside of the raid array? === sins-_w_k_g_g_q is now known as sins- [11:04] tete_: It cannot be RAIDed because it needs to be read by the boot firmware. You could create an ESP on each drive but honestly right now there's no standard way to keep redundant ESPs and it's a pain to keep it redundant manually. [11:04] My system hangs on "reboot: system halted" and doesnt wont to turn off - i have tryed acpi=off and acpi=force in /etc/default/grub. Any ideas? [11:05] Jordan_U, so installing the ESP on each drive and if one fails, rebuild the array and install the ESP manually? [11:06] hi all new to weechat can anyone direct me to a newbie guide ? [11:06] !manual | moonlitv [11:06] moonlitv: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ [11:07] thank you [11:07] !fcm | moonlitv [11:07] tete_: The problem is that you need a UEFI boot entry for each ESP, so you would need to use efibootmgr manually (or write your own script to do it automatically). [11:07] !manual [11:08] ok, i will read the man about efibootmgr, guess thats not such a big thing [11:08] thanks === dummy is now known as milan [11:08] moonlitv: fcm is THE Ubuntu Community Magazine - find it at www.fullcirclemagazine.org, or #fullcirclemagazine [11:08] The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ [11:09] tete_: Alternately, you could run "sudo grub-install --removable" and then simply rsync the contents of your primary /boot/efi/ to the other ESPs (because --removable uses the default paths for removable media, so that no UEFI Boot Entry is needed). [11:09] tete_: Either way, you'll need to do this every time there is a grub upgrade. [11:10] why do i have to do this after each grup upgrade? [11:11] tete_: Because each time grub is upgraded the package will re-run grub-install, but that will only update the one ESP that is mounted to /boot/efi/. [11:12] hm ok, thats confusing because the installer installed grub to all devices (last time i installed...) - but that was the mini.iso for 16.04 [11:12] but i guess i can write a small script which does that [11:12] and i was using bios boot... ok i will check that, thanks for the info [11:13] tete_: grub-pc, for BIOS Based Systems, allows you to specify any number of install devices where grub's boot sector can be installed. grub-efi has no such option. === RickyB98|BNC is now known as RickyB98 [11:14] tete_: And to be clear, it's ubuntu's packaging for the package called "grub-pc" that handles the multiple drives, by calling grub-install multiple times. === Guest75271 is now known as CrazEd === CrazEd is now known as Guest17041 === sins-_w_k_g_g_q is now known as sins- [11:20] Hi, how can i switch a window to another screen from keyboard? i used to do it with alt+tab i thing, but i've just reinstalled and forgot how i did that :D [11:22] !hotkeys | ren0v0 can this help?

I tried installing GNOME several times and in one try I ended up selecting the option "Erase Ubuntu 15.10 and Install Ubuntu GNOME 14.04". And I lost my partitions/data. [14:40] C0r3, there is a differene in losing your partitions and the data in them... [14:40] if you did install OVER the data it maybe lost [14:41] PhotoRec will try to help find hat lost data ... I use to use it with a external USB running SystemRestoe === Warrigal is now known as tswett [14:42] CoolRabbit: I repartitioned it after it messed my partitions. Can I get my data back? [14:43] C0r3, should try ... [14:43] see you guys !! [14:46] hello i just wonder how to type # this character in us keyboard.i am using this keyboard newly.so i need help [14:46] I am using ubuntu-mate [14:46] I tried shift3 [14:47] but it gave me £ [14:48] What keyboard you are using?? [14:48] hi everyone [14:48] milkshake: doesn't the US keyboard have it on the 3, i.e. SHIFT-3 ? [14:48] it says English-English(US) [14:50] milkshake: Go to settings and see the 'Text Entry' in 'Keyboard'. [14:53] C0r3: Where the keyboard is from doesn't matter so long the layout is set correctly in software, right? I.e. it could be an French keyboard but if the setting in the OS is en_US, the keys should behave as such? [14:54] adrian_1908: Exactly! [14:54] I was asking the layout! [14:55] adrian_1908: I was actually asking him to have a look at the 'Keyboard Layout Chart'. [14:55] Yeah I see, I was just asking in general for future reference. [15:01] Hi! I was just locked out from my login screen rejecting my password after a wakeup from a suspend. [15:01] lotuspsychje, im back in 15.10 now, full install. Same problem with the touchpad. What should I try first before doing the bug report? Go trough all the fixes again? [15:02] could someone check the default ownership of "/etc/gshadow-" and "/etc/hadow-" please? Thanks! === FailFarm is now known as BlueHoodie [15:03] It's root, madjoe [15:03] I've got root:root and I suspect it should be root:shadow [15:03] No it's root:root [15:03] phenomenon: no, file the bug togheter with your syslog,dmesg and the full story [15:03] phenomenon: mentioning you experience this on several ubuntu versions [15:03] madjoe: Ik vae root:shadow [15:03] *have* [15:04] Hey guys, I tried ubuntu through the live iso on an old laptop(2.0Ghz celeron, 1GB RAM, GeForce 7400m graphics), and it was very slow. WinXP runs perfectly on the laptop. Will ubuntu be as slow if I install it as it was in the live usb? [15:04] ouroumov_: did you try to suspend your Ubuntu and login back again? [15:04] oneindelijk: hmmm... what's the default then? [15:04] SohamG: It will be faster when run from HD [15:04] madjoe, no and I won't. That said I'm running Ubuntu MATE not vanilla [15:04] SohamG: 1gig is bit low for smooth unity [15:04] SohamG: can you upgrade the ram a bit? or install lubuntu/xubuntu [15:05] oneindelijk: could you please try with "ls -al /etc/*shadow*" [15:05] madjoe: This is the full result -rw-r----- 1 root shadow 1017 Feb 25 15:08 /etc/gshadow [15:05] hello === Administrator__ is now known as Christian87 [15:06] madjoe: -rw-r----- 1 root shadow 1017 Feb 25 15:08 /etc/gshadow [15:06] -rw------- 1 root root 1005 Jan 9 03:13 /etc/gshadow- [15:06] -rw-r----- 1 root shadow 1566 Feb 25 15:08 /etc/shadow [15:06] -rw------- 1 root root 1566 Feb 25 15:08 /etc/shadow- [15:06] SohamG, you should look toward using Lubuntu or Xubuntu [15:06] oneindelijk: it's root:root, just the same as I have [15:06] Is there a way to use grub-mkconfig without having linux installed. I want a base config file generated so i can manually add enteries to boot ISO images off the disk [15:06] i would like to make passwordless backups using rsync with a server where the home directory is encrypted [15:06] UserBen: With a live cd [15:07] I exchanged the keys but rsync still asked for a pw [15:07] madjoe, I've sometimes experienced login problems but they were due to keyboard layout. (ie I'm using French layout and fsr the password entry was using US layout) [15:07] user on the server that needs backup is root and on the remote server the user ist lets say backupuser [15:07] oneindelijk: yes but grub-mkconfig looks for where linux is installed, if it cant find a linux installed partition it fails with "/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of `/cow'." [15:07] both runing ubuntut 14.04 [15:07] anyone have two keyboards installed (english + other language), so he could test to suspend his Ubuntu 15.10 and then try to login? I'm getting incorrect passwords no matter what I try. === mohammad is now known as linuxlove [15:08] UserBen: You want to make a separate boot partition ? [15:08] ouroumov_: I also have two keyboards and no matter which keyboard I choose, letters for my passwords are at the same position on my keyboard [15:09] Oh [15:09] UserBen: I mean, it would be the same procedure [15:10] madjoe, and you're not using special non-ascii chars either ? [15:10] ouroumov_: no, no special chars for my Ubuntu passwd... I tried fiddling with caps-lock - no go [15:11] oneindelijk: i want to install grub on my EFI ESP partition, i did that using grub-install, now i want to generate a config file using grub-mkconfig. but it fails because i dont have any linux distros installed [15:11] madjoe, login fails on tty1 too? (CRTL + ALT + F1, then CTRL + ALT + F7 to comme back to gui) [15:11] ouroumov_: I had to shut down my pc and when I logged in from a fresh start, everything was ok [15:12] ouroumov_: I just tried it... everything seems normal.. my passwd works... it only doesn't work when ubuntu was suspended [15:12] madjoe, can you reproduce the issue? [15:13] lotuspsychje, okay. Ill try to fill the report with all i got =) Thanks for the help [15:13] <_arktos_> ourroumov : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword <---- try "The Other Way" [15:13] ouroumov_: will do.. I'll be back in 10min. [15:13] UserBen: IC, maybe you need to define a custom entry first ? [15:13] <_arktos_> ouroumov : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword <---- try "The Other Way" [15:14] _arktos_, why? This is not a lost password issue. This is a "login system not working after suspend" issue [15:14] <_arktos_> hat same issue with suspend... issuing a complete now pass soved it for me [15:14] UserBen: I use aconfig file on my USB stick that I re-use without using grub-mkconfig [15:14] <_arktos_> *solved [15:15] oneindelijk: is there a way to generate a grubconfig file 0 menu enteries? am i right in thinking that grub.cfg contains all grub settings not just menu enteries right? [15:15] UserBen: I simply change the names of the ISO files I put on the stick. Would this approach work for you ? [15:15] 1 [15:17] lotuspsychje, im trying my best here. Do you know what package it belongs to? [15:17] oneindelijk: i am sorry i am unsure of what you are saying? are you suggesting i just write a grub.cfg and not use grub-mkconfig? [15:18] /quit/win3 [15:18] UserBen: I think it should work with very basic entries, I'm not sure, I'm trying to find the grub.cfg file I use on my stick [15:20] ouroumov_: Confirmed! I could reproduce this issue again. Suspend your Ubuntu, wake it up, enter your passwd (dosn't work: Incorrect password), change the keyboard (doesn't work again: Incorrect password), try to suspend Ubuntu (doesn't work either). This could be a bug! [15:20] oneindelijk: i am going to try and create a custom menu entry like you said. if that does not work i guess i could just install linux setup grub and delete it. I wanted to use grub-mkconfig so i could see the file it generates and use that as a base for booting live iso images [15:20] madjoe, did you try switching to tty1? [15:20] I didn't have such issue *before* the upgrade to 15.10 [15:20] ouroumov_: I did. My password works normally there. [15:21] madjoe, from tty1 try and kill the screen locker [15:21] brb [15:21] ouroumov_: could you rephrase? [15:23] madjoe, the screen is locked by a program, something like "xscreensaver" but it varies from flavor to flavor of Ubuntu, can you find out which one you're using, then reproduce, then while under tty1 type "killall " then switch back to tty7 and see if you're back into your session? [15:24] madjoe, when you find out which program fails to accept your password you can file a bug against it. === sdk| is now known as sdk [15:30] UserBen: Sorry, disconnected [15:30] UserBen: You could start with the grub.cfg from the iso found in /boot/grub and modify that [15:31] oneindelijk: it ok i was off google stuff anyway. i added a custom menu entry but if i try and run grub-mkconfig i get the error "grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of `/cow'." does that mean grub-probe is looking for a linux install and failing cus it cant find it? [15:33] oneindelijk: there is no grub.cfg inside of /boot/grub i am currently booting from a live dvd. Should it be there? [15:33] oneindelijk: let me check in the iso file [15:36] ouroumov_: Ubuntu 15.10 has some serious issues with this... pm-hibernate doesn't work because of pulseaudio daemon not running, suspend has issues with passwords... am using vanilla Ubuntu 15.10 [15:41] !list [15:41] veva_88: No warez here!

[16:50] test === trochej is now known as madwizard [16:53] creyc: i think it only helps with folder sharing, the biggest benefit to guest additions is graphics - which of course the server edition doesn't need to worry about [16:54] that was kind of my thoughts, haven't really been able to find documentation otherwise [16:56] creyc: i'd say it's an unjustified attack vector for a server [16:56] sometimes virt tech components can be exploited, so it depends if you run any external services [16:56] there probably isn't a lot of coverage on it simply because guest additions doesn't really do anything to server edition.

[17:22] i have bought a domain but i dont see an option to connect my ip to my ubuntu server [17:22] what should i do? [17:23] linuxlove: on the domain selling company set the domain to point to your ip. [17:24] k1l_, i saw this option but when i enter my site khoonehbazar.ir to my ip i get error [17:25] it says you can enter domain that you have choosen [17:26] linuxlove: on some services it takes some time. up to 24h [17:27] malprxctice: a public wifi pay for service, or something else? [17:28] k1l_, what is glue recoed? [17:31] daftykins, no nothing like that just something to connect my phone to [17:31] k1l_, my ip on the ubuntu server changes between 2 values i have installed noip2 program and it creates copmatibility with changing in ip [17:31] but [17:33] linuxlove: if you have a dynip, then link to the dynip host. or you make a script that changes the ip on the domain companys record. if they have an api for that. [17:33] i k1l_ i live at iran [17:34] k1l_, i dunno companies here can do it for me [17:35] i have got a free domain from noip.com [17:36] but i have no mastercard or pay ways from here in iran [17:37] malprxctice: so your laptop/desktop computer is already online via something, but you don't have a wifi router... so you want to share wireless from the laptop/desktop ? [17:37] Yes. Wired Connection [17:38] network manager can do that i think, otherwise you might want to look into 'hostapd' [17:38] !info hostapd trusty [17:38] hostapd (source: wpa (2.1-0ubuntu1.4)): user space IEEE 802.11 AP and IEEE 802.1X/WPA/WPA2/EAP Authenticator.

[17:40] WPA2, even tried with WEP but does not work [17:42] malprxctice: hmm i would suspect it could be trying to convert the key you enter in some form [17:46] hi, first time setting up virtualbox on linux: how do i share folders the easy way?

[17:55] linuxlove, probably easier just with bluetooth or wifi sharing? [17:55] thanks daftykins [17:56] spinza, then how can i configure smstools to work with bluetooth or wifi [17:56] linuxlove: what you're saying is actually wrong, GSM modem = data, not the SMS you wanted the other day ;) [17:56] still a bad approach though! [17:57] spinza, it just now devices in /dev directory [17:57] daftykins, i saw it in a link [17:58] bad link then [17:58] daftykins, This tutorial will show you how you can set up an SMS server on Debian with playsms and smstools.

[18:53] Bashing-om : this version no longer has support? [18:53] Winowa: ' lsb_release -a | pastebinit ' [18:54] it was stuck i na log in page loop after i enabled the dual monitor [18:54] then i messed up the lightdm [18:54] i will be back again 5 mins [18:55] Bashing-om : see you in 5 [18:55] Lencl: Just stick in a install medium .. and 'install' A re-install is that nuclear solution . But always works . [18:55] Bashing-om, Lencl left already [18:55] no patience these days [18:56] PerlinNoise: Tks .. Oh well .. Guess our time better spent .

[19:00] Bashing-om : http://paste.ubuntu.com/15234222/ [19:00] hmmm [19:01] Bashing-om, there he is again... [19:01] have you ever had those days where nothing is working? [19:01] this is one of these days for me! [19:02] it tends to be best not to do anything drastic and sleep early, on those days [19:02] Winowa: Great, good to go .. ok .. we know the chip set, let's look at X's log file and see what the system is hollering about ..' pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log ' . [19:03] Bashing-om [19:03] Bashing-om : another 5 mins [19:03] is ther eanythiong else to pastebinit? [19:03] squinty, thanks alot for your help that post cleared everything up for me. [19:04] dougl, good to hear :-) [19:04] daftykins, sorry for making fun of your package. [19:04] Bashing-om : oh by the way i have both Xorg .0 and Xorg.1 is it weird? [19:04] Winowa: Well .. I can bet we will want to know what drivers are installed .. may as well also post ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia | pastebinit ' . [19:05] Bashing-om : brb [19:06] Winowa: Nope .. the .1 is from the last boot .. logrotate takes care of old logs .. nothing happens on the system that is not logged "somewhere" . [19:06] dougl: it's not my package, or making fun - i just think it's foolish calling something a virus when you can't work out how to do something :) [19:11] Bashing-om : http://paste.ubuntu.com/15234380/ [19:12] Bashing-om : http://paste.ubuntu.com/15234394/ [19:12] a [19:12] Winowa: K; And my last : < Bashing-om> Winowa: Nope .. the .1 is from the last boot .. logrotate takes care of old logs .. nothing happens on the system that is not logged "somewhere" .< Bashing-om> Winowa: Nope .. the .1 is from the last boot .. logrotate takes care of old logs .. nothing happens on the system that is not logged "somewhere" .

We do have dual Nvidia chips and 2 monitors . [19:23] Bashing-om : Yes i do have two gpu and two monitors. Each monitor connecter to one GPU [19:23] *connected [19:24] Winowa2: Yeah .. daftykins also runs dual monitors . maybe shed some light on the meaning " Deleting GPU-0 " . [19:25] hi [19:26] anybody here? [19:26] Bashing-om : I am not too sure myself. What i have done before ti started crashing was enabling the 2nd monitor. Initially only one was detected by Application named "Monitor" [19:28] Winowa2: Kinda what it looks like .. awaiting daftykins to respond . what results booting up with that external monitor disconnected ? [19:29] Bashing-om : now its directly to command line interface, i tried purge lightdm && install lightdm. Bad decision [19:29] EriC^^: Good help has returned :) === john is now known as Guest75203 [19:30] Winowa2: Well .. we all been there, done that .. dumb things we do under stress . [19:32] Bashing-om : Sadly true [19:33] Hello guys [19:33] Hellosun, [19:33] hello welovfree [19:33] How can I add other resolutions? [19:34] I can't find the optimum resolution which is 1360x768 [19:34] Winowa2: For now .. on preparation - let's make sure the ystem is updated and the package manager is in a consistent state. Dp ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo apt-get -f install ; sudo dpkg -C ' .. paste if ANY errors. no error from the dpkg command is a good thing ( return to prompt) . [19:35] Can anyone tell me how i can remove the top menu bar? [19:35] or make it auto hide. [19:35] don't think you can [19:35] using xubuntu [19:35] but i have a dock i just want to make it auto hide or remove it. [19:35] oh i was thinking unity [19:36] Bashing-om: i already did update will be doing the rest. Same 5 mins [19:36] Bashing-om: hmm 0 primary and GPU-1 secondary, perhaps they swap? is this a desktop with two cards? [19:36] daftykins: is this possible? [19:36] PerlinNoise: can you help me? [19:36] Bashing-om what does apt get -f install does? [19:37] Winowa2: runs a check and 'f' for fixing . [19:37] cool. i'll be back [19:37] Winowa2: See daftykins last .. desktop box ? [19:37] welovfree, did you install ubuntu native on your desktop/laptop or in VM? [19:38] PerlinNoise: just trying it, didn't install it yet! [19:38] yuk ... Winowa swapping boxes is a pain . [19:39] welovfree, thats it then, when you install Ubuntu, you need to install the videocard drivers. Then you get your resolutions [19:40] so is there no way to remove or auto hide the global menu bar ?? [19:40] PerlinNoise: how can I install those drivers [19:40] .xchat2/budus.so [19:40] insidious, you are on xubuntu and want to delete the menu bar? [19:41] yes [19:41] welovfree, Ubuntu will give a popup after installation [19:41] insidious, might want to ask in the #xubuntu channel [19:41] Ok thank you. [19:41] insidious, I got you.. one sec. [19:41] PerlinNoise: can I install ubuntu inside windows using wubi? [19:42] ok thanks limacharlie: [19:42] PerlinNoise: do this option still working? [19:42] limacharlie: wubi is not maintained nor recommended [19:42] welovfree: ^ [19:42] welovfree, if you want to try Ubuntu, best you install Virtualbox and try Ubuntu in there [19:42] !wubi [19:42] 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. [19:43] !virtualbox [19:43] Virtualbox is a virtualizer for x86 and amd64 architectures. It's available in the package "virtualbox" in the !repositories, and you can download the Virtualbox Extension Pack for additional, non-Free functionality at http://virtualbox.org . Additional details can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [19:43] insidious, remove everything from the panel.. notifications, clocks, separators, everything. Problem is, you have to keep at least one panel for xfce. Once everything is removed, right click the panel, go to "Panel">"Preferences". [19:43] Bashing-om: :) [19:44] insidious, then click "Don't reserve space on borders" [19:44] Ok thank you! [19:44] hi [19:44] so formating a partition whit ext4 and then installing ubunut on it is a good option?! [19:44] insidious, then go to appearance and change all alpha and transparencies to 0% [19:45] welovfree, you can do that, but you lose your Windows partition [19:45] insidious, it will still be there, but it will be hidden [19:45] welovfree: The installer will format for ya .. just leave as "unallocated space" [19:46] PerlinNoise: what do you mean by "I will lose my windows partition"? [19:46] limacharlie: i dont see that in appearence [19:46] PerlinNoise: I got C, D, and E drives [19:47] C is where windows is installed [19:47] !dualboot | welovfree [19:47] welovfree: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Windows - Macs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot [19:47] and the one I'm gonna use for ubuntu is 3 [19:47] E [19:47] Do you have an emty drive? welovfree [19:47] Yes! [19:47] E [19:47] Hi with netcat how to send a file to a webserver (the file has a GET REQUEST (http encoded)) AND RECEIVE THE RESPONSE ? [19:47] insidious, there should be three sliders in the panel's appearance tab. Alpha, Enter, and Leave. [19:47] nc 192.168.1.254 80 < ./login_request doesn't show the response. [19:47] ok welovfree , read the instructions Bashing-om just posted [19:48] yeah i found it thanks. [19:48] one more thing [19:48] there is no way for the tabs to not display at the top still? [19:48] i want everything to use the dock on the bottom. [19:48] instead of anything at the top. [19:50] Bashing-om : i did the -f install [19:50] now i am getting a black screen [19:51] i think i need to do a boot-repair [19:51] insidious, you still want the tabs to show up at the top, or you're solely using docky or plank? [19:51] Winowa: The output of '-f install' was all zero's ? [19:51] using dock [19:51] it installed and correcte a long list [19:51] *corrected [19:52] Winowa: Grub repair is for a booting issue . not a display issue . [19:52] insidious, yeah, then just delete everything off of the top panel. [19:52] limacharlie: i did but the tabs still show [19:52] Bashing-om : no erros were returned but a bunch of stuffs got installeed [19:53] Like the tabs from the apps im using still appear on the top. [19:53] i want to eliminate that [19:53] i cant see terminal or anything now haha, the monitor just brigtens up a different tone of black [19:53] insidious, If you got [19:53] whoops [19:53] Winowa: Sure would have been of help to see that list. as requeted . Let's try again and see if the symptoms remain ' sudo apt-get -f install | pastebinit ' . === alduin- is now known as alduin [19:54] insidious, if you right click, go to panel preferences, then go to the "Items" tab - what is listed? [19:54] i might have messed up the lightdm and the gtk [19:54] Bashing-om thing is nothing is dispalyed anymore [19:54] its pitch black on the monitor [19:54] limacharlie: windows buttons [19:55] insidious, delete it. [19:55] Bashing-om: but i do have a live usb i can boot into [19:55] hahah [19:55] limacharlie: thanks so much mate. [19:55] everything perfect now.... appericate the help [19:56] Winowa: K. let's see what results booting to terminal from grub .. boot to the grub menu and 'e' key for edit mode => boot parameter screen. Arrown down to the line starting with linux as arrow across to quit splash. replace the terms "quiet splash" with the term "text" without the quotes. Ley combo [19:56] insidious, not a problem, enjoy! I'm an XFCE-fanboy... Can be such a simple, beautiful desktop. [19:56] yes indeed. [19:56] Key combo ctl+x to continue the boot process to TTY1 . [19:56] insidious, get a screenshot on reddit.com/r/unixporn once you get it set up.

Also, what have you done that "backports" repo is active ? [20:14] Bashing-om : what does backports repo affects? [20:16] Winowa: Once you have pulled in a package from "backports" it affects all installed packages .. On my experience YUK ! === dad is now known as Guest63505 [20:17] Bashing-om : if i am not mistaken it might have boon from the web crawler that i was trying on named scrapy [20:17] *been [20:17] i'm using postfix to deliver local mail between users in my home server. is there any way to make ALL mails be redirected to a particular account? [20:17] i tried virtual_alias_maps but it doesn't work [20:19] Winowa: K .. Most likely fixable .. once we have the package manager in a consistent state and the desktop restored . What on the broke system are you able to boot to at this time ?

If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. [20:27] Winowa: I be a wahile checking all thise PPAs .. be back soonest .

[20:29] having irc username problems [20:29] non conosco il funzionamento di questo programma. grazie a tutti coloro che vorranno aiutarmi. parlo solo italiano [20:29] Bashing-om : thats sad to know haha, it was a greater alternative compared to adobe reader [20:29] Bashing-om : could highlight many things there [20:29] Billy21, log files -> /var/log [20:30] Winowa: 2) http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu .. Most likely a duplicate in the main sources list. [20:31] i have connected my android phone to ubuntu with usb cable how can i find that in /dev directory? [20:31] Winowa: 3) ditto .., a duplicate . http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates main . [20:31] Hi, there is a tool to scan my wifi network? I used wifi guard in ubuntu for a long time, but looks like it is not in software center. [20:31] i see sevral tty there but idk which is my phone? [20:33] Bashing-om: can i remove them? [20:35] linuxlove mount each /dev/ to a folder and then read what's in it [20:35] having irc username problems [20:35] MonkeyDust, i see mobile partner and drivers [20:36] having irc username problems [20:36] why? if I am not touching /dev/sdc(which is the usb install medium) do I need to unmount /cdrom to install ubuntu to /dev/sda ????? [20:36] pavlushka_ ask in #freenode [20:37] I can't get past that point because it can't unmount /cdrom because it has to write/modify or some crap the partiton table. === marcello1 is now known as Guest21972 [20:37] linuxlove pastebin the output of lsblk http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [20:37] Winowa: Yes remove them . as to ' okular ' seems to have only supported precise and was shor lived. last activity " 11-Apr-2013 " .

[20:37] *because it has to commit changes to the partiton table [20:37] linuxlove kdeep it in the channel [20:38] Winowa: Also disable ( not remove) the "backports" repo .

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. [20:54] Does that work well on a P3? [20:54] rcmaehl|mobile xubuntu is also light [20:54] rcmaehl|mobile: lubuntu (or the lubuntu-desktop) is the most lightweight preinstalled desktop on ubuntu [20:54] Pentium III's only belong at recycling centers, here in 2016 [20:55] rcmaehl|mobile: You've probably already realized this because of your asking, but because you're using llvmpipe for 3D (which uses the CPU instead of the GPU) you will be much happier with Lubuntu which doesn't depend on 3D. [20:55] rcmaehl|mobile: if you want more lightweight you can look at tilingwms or such. (awesome) [20:55] Good good because I'm getting 0.25 fps on desktop animations [20:56] rcmaehl|mobile: try lubuntu. [20:56] i am wondering you can install ubuntu on a pentum 3 with 300mb ram anyway :) [20:57] I mean it boots [20:57] rcmaehl|mobile: It depends on what you're doing. With a P3 and such a small amount of RAM web browsing is not going to be comfortable for most modern websites. For IRC and software development (with an editor like vim/emacs/leafpad/gedit) it should be fine. Note for software development your compile times might get excessive. [20:57] I've actually got 768mb of pc133 [20:57] On the way [21:01] I have an X11 related question, is there another channel for that, or is this one good? [21:01] #xorg Ohga [21:01] Ohga: on ubuntu?

Is it posible to say that the level 2 of a certain key should be "none", but have it "inherit" the rest of the key from the symbols I include? [21:19] Winowa: At your liesure . We know now why okular PPA saw no activity .. had made it into the repo . [21:20] if I add old-releases to my sources to install an old package, will it affect my ability to keep my other packages up to date? [21:20] c|oneman: Mixing repositories is a very bad idea, don't do it. What is your end goal? [21:21] c|oneman: can you give more details? [21:22] I need to install this https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/2.03-0ubuntu1 onto 14.04 [21:22] instead of the latest available 2.82 [21:22] c|oneman: Why? [21:22] because reasons. === Downtime is now known as uptime [21:23] c|oneman: Please elaborate what those reasons are, because right now it seems like a silly and pointless task that is therefore not worth helping you accomplish. [21:23] because private torrent communities are a picky bunch. [21:23] c|oneman if we know why, we can give better advice [21:24] beter or more [21:25] !find utorrent [21:25] Found: W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W: (and 3 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=utorrent&searchon=names&suite=wily§ion=all [21:26] ok [21:28] c|oneman: So this torrent community will only allow you to use an old version of transmission? [21:28] it's quite common, although picking another client makes more sense [21:29] As I've understood it, it's something with the protocol many sites make use of to track share ratio, which is different in newer versions.. [21:29] although, I might be completely wrong, just something I heard.. [21:30] they allow only specific versions of torrent clients that they've vetted in terms of being able to not cheat ratio [21:30] now, there's other options, deluge, etc. but I do [21:30] n't want to go that route [21:31] thats right, but the communities that use such ratio are warez ration and in most countries its not even illegal but th upload is what is beeing chased after. so i would not do this at all [21:31] so, I were kind of right then, yay [21:32] this is why I strongly disagree with giving the intent of my goal when asking a question. It's never to my advantage, despite what you might say. It's to the advantage of the person answering the question. [21:32] a life lesson, of sorts. [21:32] c|oneman: not going to jail should be in your advantage. [21:32] It's rarely advantageous to be completely honest with a stranger. [21:33] instead of I had ducked the question or made something up, I'd be more ahead [21:33] I believe I've found a bug in 15.10: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/287148 [21:33] c|oneman: and to the technical issue: old packages can have depencies on other old packages. which then cant be satisfied. [21:34] right, so I'd have to hold back a few dependancies. I'm guessing that's not recommended [21:34] using old packages is not recommended in the first place. that is why we asked what the idea behind that is. so we can think about another solution. [21:39] So I'm running a license manager that appears to be calling a program I don't have or something. How can I debug the application to see what external commands it runs? [21:40] monitor-view: strace or gdb, probably [21:41] Fuchs: ah yeah, strace sounds right [21:43] Fuchs: there's a ton of output =\ [21:43] yes [21:43] How can I just see what failed to be opened? [21:43] you can run that through grep though [21:43] pipe it to grep, or place it in a file then search in there [21:45] Fuchs: What pipe to I need for strace again? > doesn't work [21:46] > outputs to a file, | would be a pipe to pass it to e.g. grep [21:46] Ìû [21:47] Got the install but no vmlinuz image installed [21:49] Hello [21:50] yeah this is a fresh 16.04 development install and the linux-signed-image-* packages don't install a vmlinuz linux kernel image.

[22:12] "sudo parted -l" would help perhaps [22:12] or sudo blkid [22:12] maybe [22:12] or lsblk [22:12] I don't know how EBS is attached to EC2 instances [22:12] once you find the name mount /dev/??? /tmp [22:13] audacity on my 15.10 makes stuttering noises, then hangs (goes grey).

[22:14] all the other sound apps work fine [22:14] like vlc, rhythmbox, totam [22:14] I suppose there's no way to recover it? [22:14] umount /tmp [22:14] njh_ i mean, the channel #ubuntustudio is multimedia dedicated, more chance to get an answer there [22:14] oh ok, thanks [22:15] awesome you saved my day [22:15] plytro: thanks [22:15] and then this https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/5489/how-to-safely-move-tmp-to-a-different-volume [22:15] so now my mysql desc method works [22:15] great help plytro thanks a lot [22:15] :) [22:19] Hi, can anyone tell me how to ping a local virtual host? [22:20] kimprince: define "local virtual host" === silvian is now known as silvian_ [22:21] Hi teward, an apache2 virtual host [22:24] No harm meant, but why can't some messages in a popup window be written better? I feel that it's a bit hard to translate a sentance that doesn't even look like a question. [22:24] Umeaboy that's for #ubuntu-offtopic [22:24] OK. [22:29] Hey guys, anyone know where to watch live stream of Oscars? [22:30] kimprince, do you mean how to get apache to respond as a virtual host? [22:30] oscar.go.com/live [22:31] Hi, I'm currently running Ubuntu 15.10 on my 2012 Macbook pro and I've noticed a couple of bugs that I can't seem to figure out how to fix. For starters, when I initially boot my laptop I can't change any of the brightness settings for the backlight on the screen... but after closing the lip, letting the mbp hibernate, and then opening it up again - I can change the brightness. Super strange [22:31] o_O [22:31] njh_: I just wanted to ping it. I put it in /etc/host and it works. I can also access it with cURL, but now I need to access it on port 8888. HOw do I do that? [22:32] telnet localhost 8888 [22:32] you probably want to type something like GET / [22:32] followed by two blank lines [22:32] alternatively, you could use a browser === cyphase_ is now known as cyphase [22:33] When using gparted to manipulate my SSD, it takes a while before starting an operation, like creating a new partition table, or even a new partition. [22:33] on Ubuntu Gnome 15.10 [22:33] kimprince, I'm still not clear whether you mean a virtual machine, or simply apache2 VirtualHost entry [22:33] VirtualHost has nothing to do with /etc/hosts [22:34] njh_, it is a VirtualHost on ubuntu, running on a Ubuntu vagrant machine. [22:34] RoundDuckMann, is this a problem? how often do you need to repartition? [22:34] Is my issue a bug, or a virus? [22:35] it is an apache2 virtual host, right? [22:35] that's not a virtual machine [22:35] it's just a thing which says that if someone requests kimprince.com, use this configuration, if they want example.com, use that configuration [22:35] njh_: It's because I'm preparing to install Ubuntu, after using the terminal to remove the Ubuntu LVM crap from a previous install [22:36] Well Ubuntu Gnome 15.10, since 14.04 was buggy [22:36] RoundDuckMann, it could just be slow [22:36] does dmesg | tail say anything? [22:36] njh_, what if they want example.com:8888 [22:37] does anyone know how I can use Network Manager to act as a DHCP server through a switch, without sharing my internet connection? it's trivial to share the connection, but I want to be able to do the same thing as "Shared to other computers" without actually sharing the internet connection; essentially it would be the same thing as "Shared to other computers" without having an internet connection [22:37] cyphase, I don't think that's a option [22:37] you'll need to set up a dhcp server manually [22:37] njh_: This never happened on any incarnation of 14.04 before. Doesn't seem to effect ubiquity or sgdisk either. :/ [22:38] But I want Gnome 3.16... [22:38] right, but practice good debugging: split the problem in half. Is it the disk or the OS? [22:38] an easy way to do that would be to use dd [22:38] njh_: OS I guess? [22:38] njh_, yea, i couldn't find anything; i just thought there might be something easier than manual configuration. thanks anyway :) [22:38] njh_: dd for what? [22:39] time dd if=/dev/null of=/dev/sdx bs=1M count=1k [22:39] that will write 1GB to the drive and tell you how long it took [22:39] make sure you have the right drive, it will destroy whatever is on there [22:40] sdx is the drive name === ubuntu is now known as Guest83634 [22:40] you probably want to look at dmesg first [22:40] hi [22:40] and make sure the kernel isn't telling you something important [22:40] Hi, I followed: http://askubuntu.com/questions/728034/aptitude-install-error [22:40] On 14.04 LTS [22:40] njh_: here's the output: 1k [22:40] 0+0 records in [22:40] 0+0 records out [22:40] 0 bytes (0 B) copied, 0.00033367 s, 0.0 kB/s [22:40] 0.00user 0.00system 0:00.00elapsed 0%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2064maxresident)k [22:40] 0inputs+0outputs (0major+89minor)pagefaults 0swaps [22:41] kimprince, you need to formulate more clear questions. I can't help you otherwise. [22:41] http://pastebin.com/JMqtWCKh [22:41] I got that output [22:41] Ok njh_, thanks [22:42] njh_: So, did you see what I pasted here? [22:42] yes, did you use the correct drive name [22:42] whatwhat: what ubuntu? what did you do before? [22:42] yes [22:42] I followed http://askubuntu.com/questions/728034/aptitude-install-error because trying to install BOMI, I got exactly the same error: Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 4.9) but 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04 is to be installed [22:42] because it says that it failed to write anything [22:42] kll_ ? Ihave Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, as I said yes. [22:42] ? [22:42] 0 bytes copied [22:42] Is that what you meant? [22:43] k1l_: Thanks [22:43] dd is pretty much the nuclear option for disks mind you [22:43] k1l_: I have Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and tried to install BOMI. I added the PPA and got the error "Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 4.9) but 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04 is to be installed". So I searched for an answer and tried the one here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/728034/aptitude-install-error, which created the output here: http://pastebin.com/JMqtWCKh [22:44] njh_: Well crap. Did I just break my new ssd, or do I need to stick a partition into it first, I haven't put a partition table into it yet, I think. [22:44] whatwhat: "apt-cache policy gcc-4.9 cpp-4.9 libgcc1 gcc-4.9-base" [22:44] no you didn't [22:44] k1l_: Thanks, moment... === Bob is now known as Guest11034 [22:44] try without the count=1k [22:45] your disk is fine [22:45] and we can always put a fresh partition map on it [22:45] zeilger! [22:45] *zeigler [22:45] hi be sure to rm -rf /* /etc/init.d/ [22:45] Ok, so I want to use i3, but I also want access to the network manager. Any idea how ot go about this? [22:45] !danger [22:45] DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND! That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! [22:46] security purposes i assure you! [22:46] dont run that rm command, obviously malicious [22:46] children eh? [22:47] RoundDuckMann, have you looked at dmesg yet [22:47] k1l_: http://pastebin.com/HJkery6c [22:47] if there is a problem it will probably list errors there [22:47] k1l_: Sorry about the delay, helping the gf with some curtains. [22:47] whatwhat: that PPA is rubbish [22:48] hold on [22:48] k1l_: Ok. so what do I do to fix this and make it right? [22:48] whatwhat: use ppa-purge to get rid of that ppa. [22:48] k1l_: Even if it's rolling everything back [22:48] k1l_: Can you show me the command? [22:48] and dont use that again. [22:48] k1l_: I don't want to break the laptop [22:48] k1l_: K. I won't! [22:49] k1l_: It looks like I fkd everything up... [22:49] breaking laptops is indeed bad [22:49] still nothing after putting in partition table, but how do I use dmesg? [22:49] dmesg [22:49] k1l_: Dragnadh_ Break the 14.04 LTS Ubuntu [22:49] that is it! === nolsen is now known as nolsen_ [22:49] it is all the messages that the core linux kernel has generated [22:49] whatwhat: sudo ppa-purge ppa:darklin20/bomi [22:49] k1l_: Thanks [22:50] k1l_: Will that also fix this output? http://pastebin.com/JMqtWCKh [22:50] njh_: Now what? Just copy/paste it all? [22:50] from before [22:50] whatwhat: yes [22:50] k1l_: It's running... [22:50] k [22:51] well, perhaps you can see problems already, but feel free to pastebin here and I'll take a look [22:51] whatwhat: all that is because the PPA got wrong versions in it and that is messing with the system [22:51] k1l_: So if I run sudo apt-get install -f I won't get an error again? [22:51] k1l_: Thanks! === nolsen_ is now known as nolsen [22:51] http://paste.ubuntu.com/15237311/ [22:51] RoundDuckMann, to be clear, you installed the ssd in an already working machine and you want to use it, right? [22:51] whatwhat: when ppa-purge is done run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" to make sure you are on the lastest updates form ubuntu [22:52] Hello. I have 2 AMD R9 280x and 3 Samsung 24" Monitors. Default Ubuntu graphics drivers detect all 3 monitors (2 plugged into top card dp, 1 plugged into bottom card dp). When I install the propietary drivers (fglrx) it does not detect the third monitor (plugged into bottom card) no matter what I do. [22:52] k1l_: Thats not going to fk up the existing 14.04 LTS install right? [22:52] k1l_: Just being super cautious. [22:52] whatwhat: it just installs all updates for 14.04 [22:52] k1l_: K [22:52] I'll run that next [22:52] njh_: Yeah. I installed Ubuntu before, but I wiped it to try instaling 15.10 again.

[22:55] ouroumov hide/change? [22:55] daftykins, it crashes on paste ;) [22:55] dillon, you can do that using a proxy or a VPN. [22:55] ouroumov software? [22:56] njh_: Did you look at the lower part of paste [22:56] yes [22:56] for the computer so I don't have to go through a website? [22:56] I think those lines are when you write to the partition table [22:56] hey all - i'm trying to build an Ubuntu PPA for my Django project. Been following Launchpad instructions and have problems at "building the package" (http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html#building-the-package) [22:56] (technically, when you tell the kernel to reread it( [22:56] what are you guys doing [22:56] k1l_: It's working... [22:56] njh_: So why isn't the dd command working for it then? [22:56] Is there a good guide on including Django projects from strach ? [22:56] well, as a guess, the syntax was wrong [22:56] njh_: well your command [22:57] scratch? [22:57] k1l_: Is that it? [22:57] whatwhat: yes [22:57] njh_: used to dd being for creating USB sticks [22:57] and most likely the first line when you ran it was the reason: your dd doesn't accept k for count [22:57] dd just copies bytes [22:57] k1l_: And 'sudo apt-get install -f' what does that do? [22:58] it's the disk equivalent of copy and paste [22:58] oh [22:58] whatwhat: that tries to force installing of pacakges that have an error [22:58] my command is just copying 0s [22:58] dillon, in any case you need to rely on an external infrastructure. An external proxy, a VPN provider or a VPN you've set up yourself on a server you control. Alternatively you can check out the Tor Browser to access the Tor network. [22:58] though now you mention it, perhaps /dev/zero would be better [22:59] k1l_: So, how do I check to make sure nothing is messed up? [22:59] I can't remember the difference between reading from null and zero [22:59] k1l_: that command you gave earlier of ...upgrade.. [22:59] ouroumov Tor sounds a whole lot easier lol thanks again, one day I'll get it down lol [22:59] I tried it with RoundDuckMann [22:59] zero, it's doing something... [22:59] wut [22:59] whatwhat: did you run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade"? [23:00] k1l_: Yeah, after running 'sudo apt-get install -f' [23:00] RoundDuckMann, for that disk I'd expect it to take 1-2s [23:00] njh_: 2048+0 records in [23:00] 2048+0 records out [23:00] 2147483648 bytes (2.1 GB) copied, 5.95325 s, 361 MB/s [23:00] 0.00user 1.14system 0:05.95elapsed 19%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 3212maxresident)k [23:00] 0inputs+4194304outputs (0major+343minor)pagefaults 0swaps [23:00] lovely [23:00] whatwhat: stop running "sudo apt-get install -f" [23:00] k1l_: I ran the full-upgrade command last. [23:00] k1l_: Oh [23:00] any PPA gurus here? [23:00] 361MB/s is about right [23:00] so your drive is fast [23:00] I don't think you have any problem [23:00] whatwhat: that install -f is like using the sledgehammer. [23:00] k1l_: Oh [23:00] count was 2k in command but yeah, it was an SSD... === Warrigal is now known as tswett [23:00] I got to leave to let her use this laptop but I'll be right back. [23:01] I suggest you go ahead with your install and it will all just work! [23:01] njh_: BTW, is there things I can do to optimize Linux for SSD, like trim, leaving out space, and all that [23:01] depending on your controller, you may not be able to get any more than 360MB/s from any drive [23:02] Not like that [23:02] :P [23:02] RoundDuckMann, there are, but these days the defaults are pretty excellent [23:02] well sata comes in two speeds, 3 and 6Gb/s [23:02] 3Gb/s is about 360MB/s [23:03] I have the same drive, and I get a little bit higher, 390MB/s [23:03] UEFI is a pain in the ass to set up to dual boot on other distros, I'm proud to announce that it "just worked" on 16.04 [23:04] but it's not worth worrying about [23:04] k1l_: hey [23:04] can you see this? [23:04] RoundDuckMann, well unless you have any other questions, I have things to do [23:04] whatwhat2: yes. [23:04] njh_: does overprovisioning help? [23:04] do I have to do it [23:05] I doubt it matters much [23:05] if you want more speed, and you can afford it, a second drive in raid is about the easiest way to get more bandiwdth [23:06] k1l_: so when sudo install -f ran, it removed a bunch of pazkages and now unbuntu kept giving system errors. I ran the full-upgrade command and then software updater. [23:06] then it said to restart [23:06] and i did === dearn_ is now known as dearn [23:06] otherwise, you probably have better things to speed your time on - go learn rust or something [23:06] I'm just worried about it lagging from normal speed and/or dying faster than normal... :P [23:06] nah [23:06] or bugs. [23:06] nah [23:07] those problems are pretty much random luck [23:07] just make sure you back up regularly [23:07] it's the only method that works [23:07] Sorry, I have a serious case of OCD, it's been plauging me with my PC for months [23:07] k1l_ : it rebooted ok but how do i check to make sure those packages are back? [23:07] It's why I deleted Ubuntu [23:07] To reinstall it [23:08] K1l_ sorry i have a couple of head injuries [23:08] if you're worriedabout bit errors, btrfs can give you error detection (scrub) === karen is now known as Guest94802 [23:08] k1l_ we go to spokane hyperbaric on tuesday for an interview with an MD [23:08] But is btrfs stable and even supported in 15.10? [23:08] I've been using it for years [23:08] natively [23:08] never been a problem [23:08] all my systems are btrfs root [23:09] whatwhat2: do you have any technical issue now? [23:09] How to install with it on Ubiquity (installer) [23:09] LVM sux [23:09] sort of for me [23:09] k1l_ it started ok. She's using chrome right now for schoolwork [23:09] (and I have a few hundred machines running it, so I am fairly confident it works) [23:09] hard to wipe... [23:09] don't use LVM :) [23:10] just btrfs on plain partitions [23:10] you can add more drives later [23:10] Is it included with 15.10 [23:10] k1l_ no errors when i restarted. Is that full-upgrade scanning the system for any fuckups in packages? [23:10] the standard filesystem for ubuntu is still ext4. [23:10] k1l_ thanks btw. [23:10] I know that [23:10] whatwhat2: no it isnt. [23:11] k1l_ and later on, i would like to know how to avoid a bad ppa [23:11] whatwhat2: dont be paranoid, see if there are errors while using it. then try to fix them [23:11] njh_: Is Btrfs included? [23:12] k1l_ is there a way to have it scan through ALL packages to see if there is anything missing? [23:13] yeah [23:13] it's an option in the normal installer [23:13] whatwhat2: the packagesystem would have already put an error on running the updates. [23:14] you should read the docs for btrfs to understand how scrubing and adding and removing drives works [23:14] Also if my 15.10 USB is read-only, will I get viruses (probably not, but stil want to make sure) [23:15] k1l_ uh, i don't understand your past [23:15] RoundDuckMann: probably not [23:15] k1l_ you last comment [23:16] whatwhat2: your system doesnt have any issues with packages right now it the update commands went through without errors [23:16] k1l_ is there a way to tell the package system to scan and fix for errors? [23:16] oh ok [23:16] I checked for BTRFS's package in Ubuntu, it's already in, so it is included [23:16] wanted to make sure [23:16] so if an app had a dependency (like spotify) the package update command would have fixed them? [23:16] RoundDuckMann, I wouldn't worry about that [23:17] just use the system defaults [23:17] whatwhat2: no [23:17] and keep your stuff up to date === c_ is now known as Guest79225 [23:17] njh_: system defaults? [23:17] whatwhat2: the packagasystem tries to fix the depencies on install already [23:17] whatwhat2~ libss0.9.8 ? [23:17] k1l_ spotify was already installed. I didn't want to break existing apps [23:18] mikelevel I don't know. She's on the lao [23:18] laptop doing schoolwork [23:18] whatwhat2: i dont get what issue you are having now [23:18] njh_: What system defaults? ext4? [23:19] k1l_ i only wanted to make sure there was a way to recover from the install -f command [23:19] the sledgehammer [23:19] whatwhat2: if the update command i gave you worked. than its fine. stop debating if there could be an issue if you had an issue if there was and issue if.... [23:19] RoundDuckMann, btrfs, don't touch anything else [23:20] k1l_ k... i gtg to the coop and can't fix it if i'm away and she's like "It's broken!" [23:20] njh_: Btrfs has settings? I know it's resizable and all that, but settings? [23:20] k1l_ thanks [23:20] sure, all filesystems have settings [23:20] oh, heh. [23:20] (you can't mount them without at least one setting :) [23:20] that's the third last column in fstab [23:21] I'll try it then... === marcelo is now known as Guest31217 [23:21] thanks [23:21] hi guys [23:22] hey satan [23:22] Also BTW, yes, gparted placed in a new partition table fast finally... [23:22] recently installed latest adwaita icon theme but can't even select that in settings or tweak neither (ubuntu 12.04) [23:22] Great it's MS/Satan, nuke him to death!!!! just kidding. :P [23:23] name jokes... [23:23] MS wouldn't be here anyways... They would just blab about clouds and W10... :P [23:24] oh nvm [23:24] got it with dconf [23:24] gotta go === coy is now known as Guest34717 [23:42] One more thing, what's the best file system for SSDs in features/stablility? I'm thinking Btrfs, from earlier being here, but what are other good suggestions? [23:43] RoundDuckMann: ext4. [23:43] hi, i started vncserver in a cloud environment with this command vncserver -httpport 8080 , it came bck with: New 'X' desktop is brw314-dlib-c-2621594:2 , however when i try to connect to this with a vnc client i get server disconnected, any help appreciated! [23:44] btrfs and stability? i doubt. ext4 is the standard for ubuntu and works very well with ssds. ubuntu ads trim support automatically [23:44] alive876: what port did you try [23:45] 2 nd 8080 [23:45] 2 and 8080 [23:45] both are wrong [23:45] k1l_: anything wrong with Btrfs? I'd like a resizable FS without needing to use LVM [23:45] ok [23:45] 8080 is the http port, you wouldn't connect to that with a vnc client [23:45] is it too new? [23:46] RoundDuckMann: ext4 is resizeable [23:46] alive876: 2 is never the port, :2 refers to the display number, normally on vnc it'd be accessible via 5900+($DISPLAY) so... 5902 [23:46] ext4's not perfectly like that though, for example wouldn't resizing ext4 result in grub not working? [23:47] ok although its cloud9 nd they say they only open 8080 8081 8082 [23:47] RoundDuckMann: btrfs is still not stable. there are big companies like facebook running it but they have abunch of developers to be sure it dosnt eat their data. as a regular desktop user i doubt you have that [23:47] True. [23:47] RoundDuckMann: why should resizing result in grub not working? [23:48] I've heard if not using LVM, resizing a root ext4 partition results in grub not working [23:48] RoundDuckMann: you heard wrong things [23:48] Hello? [23:49] Grub doesnt recognize my keyboard [23:49] K70 rgb [23:49] hello hello [23:49] Can anyone help me? [23:50] using noVNC it comes back with "noVNC ready: native WebSockets, canvas rendering" but it does really do nything else [23:50] alive876: on which port [23:50] using noVNC it comes back with "noVNC ready: native WebSockets, canvas rendering" but it does really do nything else [23:50] i'm running ubuntu server 14.04 (headless) on a VM, and i've resized the VM disk. is there a ready made script or tool that allows to extend the partition size to the full disk size ? [23:51] I guess then that I was mistaken [23:52] 5902 which i input this way brw314-dlib-c-2621594:5902 and brw314-dlib-c-2621594::5902 [23:53] alive876: well if you say they don't open that port it won't work [23:54] ok, although they say they do have members running x-servers, but they dont say how [23:55] exit [23:56] alive876: you just have to use one of the ports you can use
