[00:13] <mijk> hmm, if I run: xrandr --listproviders it shows "name:modsetting"
[00:15] <RoadRunner> After restoring an image to a different partition, need help editing fstab
[00:17] <RoadRunner> (copied my sda5 into a newly created sda7) - how to create a unique UUID for the new partition (/dev/sda7) in fstab?
[00:22] <dax> what filesystem are you using?
[00:22] <RoadRunner> ext4
[00:23] <dax> sudo tune2fs -U random /dev/sda7
[00:23] <RoadRunner> GParted seems to have an option for a new UUID but it is greyed out...
[00:24] <RoadRunner> dax: could you please explain the syntax of the above command?
[00:24] <dax> tune2fs is a command that edits metadata on ext* filesystems. -U tells it to change the partition's UUID. random is a special value to the -U parameter telling it to make one up itself.
[00:24] <RoadRunner> i mean tune2...
[00:25] <RoadRunner> got it
[00:27] <RoadRunner> so I guess its not a good idea to just manually edit fstab and making up your own "random" number for UUID?
[00:28] <dax> instead of using "random" there you can specify a UUID, if that's what you're asking. either way, you'll want to update fstab with the new UUID of the filesystem
[00:28] <dax> which sudo blkid will list if tune2fs doesn't, i forget what the output looks like
[00:30] <RoadRunner> I mean is anything wrong with not using tune2fs and just manually changing UUID in fstab with a text editor; and if OK is anything wrong with pulling a random number out of thin air?
[00:31] <dax> if the UUID in fstab doesn't match the UUID of the partition, then the partition's not gonna get mounted
[00:32] <dax> so if you just make something up and put it in fstab, you still need to use tune2fs to make the partition have your made-up UUID
[00:32] <RoadRunner> got it
[00:32] <RoadRunner> If both new and old partitions are ext4, is it possible to mount the new partition after booting from the old (or vise versa - to check files in them without rebooting)?
[00:35] <dax> Yes. I'm not familiar with Xubuntu's thunar, but most file managers on linux can handle that for you if you click on the drive's icon
[00:35] <dax> if not, you can either create a directory to mount it and then add a line in fstab,
[00:35] <dax> or create a directory to mount it in and use sudo mount /dev/sda5 /path/to/directory
[00:36] <dax> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions#Editing_Ubuntu.27s_filesystem_table and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount discuss the latter two options
[00:38] <RoadRunner> what if want to have both partitions available in the boot menu and not have the new partition mount at boot automatically but to be able to mount it later if desired, what values must be put in fstab for the new partition (sda7) in the 4th, 5th and 6th fields?
[00:40] <RoadRunner> and finally, after completing editing fstab, will giving the command: "sudo update-grub" be enough for the booter to see and list both partitions sda5 and sda7 as choices in the boot menu?
[00:40] <dax> "both partitions available in the boot menu" => do sudo update-grub after setting up the UUID stuff, should be automatically detected
[00:40] <dax> "what values" => on sda5 you'd want to put noauto, 0, and 0 for sda7. and vice versa for on sda7
[00:44] <RoadRunner> i was thinking of leaving my original values for sda5, which were: errors=remount-ro 0       1; so with that being the case, what values for sda7?
[00:45] <dax> in the fstab on sda5, you want to keep what's there for sda5, and use noauto 0 0 for sda7
[00:46] <dax> in the fstab on sda7, you want to keep what's there for sda7, and use noauto 0 0 for sda5
[00:47] <RoadRunner> sorry, back in 15min
[01:12] <RoadRunner> dax: I'll try it out, many thank's :)
[01:12] <dax> :)
[01:27] <Raku> How do I make this software updater window bugging me to reboot to go away? http://puu.sh/nxuxP/0bc072cd7b.png
[02:24] <mijk> I can't get my radeon 3650 to work in xenial
[02:24] <mijk> I've tried reinstalling the radeon driver, I can't run Xorg -configure
[02:25] <mijk> xrandr --listproviders shows that I'm using I'm using the radeon module
[02:25] <mijk> I can't run glxinfo, it tells me unable to start swrast_dri.so
[02:31] <xangua> ! Xenial
[03:01] <Raku> How do I make this software updater window bugging me to reboot to go away? http://puu.sh/nxuxP/0bc072cd7b.png
[03:01] <Unit193> Click the button that says 'later'?
[03:02] <Unit193> Of couse, there is the option to reboot in order to make it go away, which will also make sure you're using the updates you just got.  Or, could just kill it too.
[03:13] <Raku> Unit193, How do I make it go away for good though?
[03:14] <Unit193> Disable update-notifier?  Not recommended though.
[03:16] <Raku> I mean I still want notifications about updates, I just don't want the reboot nag
[03:16] <Raku> I'm not inept, I'll reboot when and if I have to
[03:16] <Raku> I click restart later and it comes up literally like 2 minutes later
[03:17] <xangua> No, it won't
[03:17] <Raku> I mean you can tell me it won't but that's what's happening
[03:18] <xangua> The only time you need to restart when updating it's related to kernel stuff, it's recommended you restart for the security kernel update to apply
[03:18] <Raku> I'm aware
[03:19] <Raku> But the reboot nag never goes away, after I dismiss it it comes up again, ideally I'd like it to not be there at all but if I could just make it not come up every few minutes I'd be fine with that
[03:20] <xangua> Are you using Xenial?
[03:20] <Raku> I think so yes
[03:21] <Raku> Oh
[03:21] <Raku> No I'm not I'm on wily
[03:22] <xangua> Raku: then you'll have to learn to deal with frequent updates, other than that Xenial is still in beta and support for it is in: #ubuntu+1
[03:22] <Raku> I don't care about frequent updates
[03:22] <Raku> I care about the 'You should reboot' nag coming up over and over again
[03:23] <Raku> It doesn't go away after I click reboot later it comes up again a few minutes later
[03:23] <xangua> Are you using any third party repository?
[03:24] <Raku> Ya
[03:25] <xangua> And this repository (ies) would be kernel or hardware related?
[03:27] <Raku> Nope
[03:28] <Raku> I mean is the system updating on it's own? I see where you're going with this but wouldn't I have to manually approve the update and then the reboot nag would me up in that case?
[03:28] <xangua> Video driver?
[03:30] <Raku> Ya theres a video driver one but nothing updated in the time that it would be coming back up
[03:31] <xangua> Then I have no idea how "literally every 2 minutes"would the update manager run and ask you to restart
[03:32] <Raku> It hasn't come up anymore recently now, maybe it was some odd quirk from last reboot
[03:32] <Raku> I'll let you know if it starts happening again
[03:57] <VenomousRequiem> Hello!
[03:58] <VenomousRequiem> I'm in need of some serious assistance.
[04:01] <VenomousRequiem> Anyone on?
[04:07] <Raku> You going to ask your question?
[04:41] <Raku> Okay I have new question, I have a manually compiled driver I have in /lib/modules/4.2.0-32-generic/extra which is where you're meant to put them but it isn't getting loaded
[16:19] <SirLagz> Is it bad bug-reporting etiquette to comment on an expired issue like this one - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/995794 ?
[16:19] <SirLagz> I'm still having that issue in 15.10
[16:24] <SirLagz> Ah...seems like it's a Toshiba BIOS issue... https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106591 - balls. oh well.
[16:41] <GeekDude> I deleted a file from my flash drive, and it went to .trash-1000 on the root of the drive. However, no trashinfo file was created for it. Is there a reason why a trashinfo might not be created for a specific trashed file?
[16:42] <xubuntu634> hiho
[16:47] <GeekDude> Is it okay for me to just grab the file out of the trash directory?
[17:04] <GeekDude> Either that, or I'm an idiot. The trashinfo file is indeed there
[17:15] <kgiancan> if my device don't work with xubuntu i can disinstalled it (excuse for my english)
[17:16] <kgiancan> and i can delete the partition create for it
[17:17] <knome> of course you can; xubuntu doesn't lock your system in any way
[17:17] <kgiancan> ok i im tryng it , thnk's
[17:17] <knome> what are you referring to "not working" though? are you running an old system?
[17:17] <knome> a new one with UEFI?
[17:18] <knome> thinking if the GPU works?
[17:18] <knome> you can try running xubuntu within the live environment
[17:18] <kgiancan> my s.o. is windows 10 and my pc started only whit this
[17:19] <kgiancan> i don't have the option to start whit xubuntu
[17:20] <knome> that's not what i meant; the xubuntu ISOs come with the option to try the system before installing
[17:21] <kgiancan> when i restart the machine running with win 10 only. But xubuntu is in partition create for it
[17:21] <knome> maybe you need support in your native language... which is...?
[17:21] <kgiancan> i'm tryng to use Ireeboot
[17:23] <kgiancan> eventually i trying to use lubuntu...thank's
[17:23] <knome> kgiancan, what is your native language?
[17:23] <kgiancan> italian
[17:23] <knome> !it | kgiancan
[17:24] <kgiancan> ok grazie
[20:21] <JeZxLee> does Xubuntu 16.04 64Bit Beta1 fully support Intel HD 7th generation graphics?
[20:22] <xubuntu40w> hello I'm new to linux. Could somebody please tell how to create a bootable usb on Xubuntu
[20:23] <knome> xubuntu40w, what exactly are you looking to boot from it?
[20:26] <xubuntu40w> I'm trying to go from Xubuntu to ubuntu
[20:27] <knome> xubuntu40w, the best way to do that is to install ubuntu-desktop
[20:30] <xubuntu40w> Ok I've already downloaded the ubuntu iso. The problem I'm having is that I don't know how to create a bootable usb on xubuntu.
[20:31] <Unit193> You can use dd for one, or there's the startup disk creator tool.
[20:35] <xubuntu40w> Ok, but xubuntu doesn't appear to have the startup disk creator or atleast I can't find it.
[20:39] <krytarik> !info usb-creator-gtk | xubuntu40w: It's not installed by default
[20:44] <xubuntu40w> Ok. Thank you very much to everyone. I'm currently installing it from the software centre.
[23:27] <xubuntu07i> sup
