| EriC^^ | new0: it depends on what you're compressing | 00:04 |
| victor_ | EriC^^, I mean, how can i change the transparency of the panel? | 00:04 |

| NoNameGiven | Connecting to my ssh server through my laptop... how do I check what the ssh key is supposed to be on my server just to be sure there is no security breach? | 00:36 |
| NoNameGiven | Basically what I want to do is verify that I'm connected to my server because when I tried to connect I received this: http://pastebin.com/8LbW3A6U | 00:41 |
| Moseco | Anyone here know how to get glpk working with python? | 00:52 |
| ouroumov | NoNameGiven, this usually happens when you connect using the same IP to different machines. | 00:52 |
| ouroumov | Reason for this might be you're using the same local, private IP in more than one LAN. | 00:53 |
| NoNameGiven | Well... I reinstalled Ubuntu Server on a different HDD and that same HDD is in the same tower... so it's using the same internal IP address. | 00:54 |
| ouroumov | Example both at my lab and in my home my laptop is connected by cable to my AP. Because I use the "shared connection" setting given by Ubuntu the local AP has IP 10.42.0.1 in both location and when I connect using ssh I see that warning often. | 00:54 |
| NoNameGiven | Oh. | 00:55 |
| ouroumov | NoNameGiven, if it's a new install then there's a new host key generated. | 00:55 |
| ouroumov | Which also explains it. | 00:55 |
| NoNameGiven | ok... but how would I verify? | 00:55 |
| ouroumov | The host key is generated during openssh-server initial configuration after install. To check the host key is correct you can connect physically on your server using tty1 for instance, and check the ssh config files. | 00:56 |
| ouroumov | NoNameGiven, when you go to /etc/ssh you'll see a number of key files. | 00:59 |
| NoNameGiven | ok... I see them... which one do I check? | 00:59 |
| ouroumov | check your private key files using ssh-keygen -lf <file>, this will print the fingerprint, then you can check the ssh-client show the same fingerprint | 01:00 |
| ouroumov | NoNameGiven, on my current machine it's the ECDSA 256 key, your config might be different. | 01:01 |
| NoNameGiven | Oh I see it. | 01:03 |
| NoNameGiven | Alright... the keys look the same. | 01:08 |
| gallo_mobile | hi i'm currently on a mac and builing a NAS. I'd like to make a bootble USB drive for ubuntu server 14. | 01:09 |
| ouroumov | NoNameGiven, so you can go ahead and execute the command to remove the previous key on the client. | 01:09 |
| gallo_mobile | what I've found seems to be how to make a bootabele USB ON mac FOR a mac | 01:09 |
| ouroumov | gallo_mobile, open a terminal and see if you have the "dd" command. | 01:10 |
| NoNameGiven | Oh wait... in .ssh/known_hosts, is there supposed to be 2 keys? | 01:10 |
| NoNameGiven | :| | 01:10 |
| gallo_mobile | standby | 01:10 |
| ouroumov | NoNameGiven, I don't know I have 23 keys in mine. | 01:11 |
| ouroumov | (and 131 on my laptop) | 01:11 |
| gallo_mobile | yes i do | 01:12 |
| Anthony-L | sudo cp /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/us | 01:12 |
| ouroumov | gallo_mobile, next see if you have the "df" command by typing "df -h" in the terminal | 01:12 |
| Anthony-L | why doesn't that work for me? | 01:12 |
| ouroumov | Because cp command takes two arguments Anthony-L | 01:13 |
| gallo_mobile | standby | 01:13 |
| ouroumov | cp <source> <destination> | 01:13 |
| gallo_mobile | i do | 01:13 |
| ouroumov | ok gallo_mobile. Here's the procedure. | 01:13 |
| ouroumov | You have to issue the commands : "dd if=your.iso of=/dev/sdX && sync" where /dev/sdx is the device corresponding to your usb drive. (On my current machine it's /dev/sdc for instance) | 01:15 |
| ouroumov | Be Extremely careful with that command. | 01:15 |
| ouroumov | Identify the correct /dev/sdx using "df" while your USB drive is plugged in. | 01:15 |
| ouroumov | If you use the wrong /dev/sdx you will nuke your hard drive's partitions. | 01:16 |
| Anthony-L | that sounds horrible. | 01:16 |
| ouroumov | It is. | 01:16 |
| ouroumov | I've done it. It is a pain in the lower orifice. | 01:16 |
| gallo_mobile | ouroumov: if its eaier for you paste or gist and a link would do. | 01:19 |
| gallo_mobile | anyone here using weechat ? | 01:19 |
| ouroumov | gallo_mobile, but I can't know what /dev/sdx it is on your machine so you've gotta find that out yourself and adapt the dd command | 01:20 |
| rigel | new wireless card on a desktop running trusty. ath9k drivers are loaded. ifconfig -a shows the device as wlan0 with the appropriate MAC. ifup will not bring it up, "Ignoring unknown interface wlan0=wlan0." lshw shows it as "*-network DISABLED" | 01:20 |
| rigel | im not seeing anything i recognize as an error message in syslog, dmesg, kern.log | 01:20 |
| snowgoggles | ouroumov: might be better to have gallo_mobile pastebin the df output and formulate the command for him | 01:21 |
| ouroumov | Oh right, do that please gallo_mobile. | 01:21 |
| Bashing-om | Anthony-L: dd == (d)isk (d)estroyer; verry powerfull and unforgiving of any mistake , Does what it is told . It is very important that the target and destination be indentified positivly before hitting that enter key ! | 01:22 |

| cjen2837 | hi. so i read ubuntu doesn't use xmodmap anymore, that it was replaced with xkb. but all the tutoruals for remapping a key on the keyboard use xmodmap. does anyone know how i can remap one key for another if i know their keycodes? | 03:13 |
| rimdeker | Can someone help me with parted? Anybody here perhaps have an idea how to create an "mmcblk0boot1" using parted? | 03:14 |

| cjen2837 | the menu key doesn't act like the number 1 after running that command | 03:15 |
| cjen2837 | Bashing-om, i'll check it out | 03:16 |
| reisio | cjen2837: what're you trying to do? | 03:16 |
| cjen2837 | reisio, my number 1 key on the keyboard is dead, and i don't want to buy another keyboard. so i'm trying to get another key to act as 1 | 03:17 |
| cjen2837 | like the Menu key, or right control | 03:17 |
| rimdeker | reisio: Writing a script to partition (m)SD cards | 03:18 |
| reisio | chances are buying another keyboard would require less money/time :D | 03:18 |
| cjen2837 | really? it's that complicated and expensive to use xmodmap? | 03:18 |
| cjen2837 | doesnt linux have any easy way to remap keys | 03:18 |
| reisio | cjen2837: no, but keyboards are that cheap | 03:19 |
| reisio | cjen2837: what makes you think it's 127? | 03:19 |

| rimdeker | reisio: That simply cretates /dev/mmcblk0p1 | 03:23 |

| reisio | cjen2837: try the 0x value, then | 03:26 |
| reisio | rimdeker: can't imagine why | 03:26 |
| cjen2837 | reisio, can you tell me what xev says your '1' key value is? maybe i'm just not doing it right because that key is dead and i'm trying on the other laptop | 03:27 |
| cjen2837 | it says 2 is 11, so i guessed 1 is 10 | 03:27 |
| cjen2837 | i just tried the x values. no error, but still didn't work | 03:29 |
| cjen2837 | you know what's weird. the menu key doesn't work as its normal function now. so it has been remapped to something | 03:30 |
| cjen2837 | it now says "no name" in xev | 03:30 |
| reisio | cjen2837: it's '10' for me | 03:31 |
| cjen2837 | reisio, now both my menu and 1 keys don't work lol | 03:31 |
| reisio | heh | 03:31 |
| reisio | what's xev say the keycode for your '2' key is2? | 03:32 |
| reisio | heh | 03:32 |
| cjen2837 | 2 says keycode 11, and keysym 0x32, 2 | 03:33 |
| cjen2837 | but now 1 says "keycode 10 (keysym 0x87, (no name)) | 03:33 |
| reisio | '1' should be keycode 10, then | 03:33 |
| reisio | cjen2837: you wanted the context menu key to send '1'? | 03:34 |
| cjen2837 | i just tried mapping right control to 1 and broke that too | 03:34 |
| cjen2837 | great | 03:34 |
| cjen2837 | reisio, yes | 03:34 |
| reisio | so what's xev say the context menu key is? | 03:34 |
| cjen2837 | it says it is keycode 135 | 03:35 |
| cjen2837 | so i did xmodmap -e 'keycode 10 = 135' | 03:36 |
| reisio | then you'd want: setxkbmap -layout us; xmodmap -e 'keycode 135 = 1' | 03:36 |
| cjen2837 | reisio, hey! now the context menu is back to context menu and 1 is back to (broken) 1 | 03:37 |
| cjen2837 | wait it worked | 03:38 |

| cjen2837 | i had a typo the first time | 03:38 |
| reisio | shouldn't be | 03:38 |
| reisio | setxkbmap -layout us; xmodmap -e 'keycode 135 = 1' | 03:38 |
| reisio | the -layout part "resets" previous things | 03:38 |
| snowgoggles | wow...what's going on in here? | 03:38 |
| cjen2837 | oh cool | 03:38 |
| cjen2837 | reisio, thanks so much | 03:39 |
| reisio | snowgoggles: nuttin' honey | 03:39 |
| reisio | cjen2837: so you should be able to add that to an autostart, or ~/.xmodmaprc (or whatever that file is named), etc. | 03:39 |
| snowgoggles | keyboard remapping? should use dconf editor | 03:39 |
| cjen2837 | snowgoggles, i have that . it works from there too? | 03:41 |
| snowgoggles | at this hey location org.gnome.desktop.input-sources.xkb-options | 03:42 |
| cjen2837 | snowgoggles, how would i remap the context menu key to be 1 in there like reisio did. right now it just says xkb-options [] | 03:43 |
| cjen2837 | could i just put that statement in there? setxkbmap -layout us; xmodmap -e 'keycode 135 = 1' | 03:43 |
| reisio | cjen2837: did you not try it? | 03:44 |
| snowgoggles | you have to add a new rule to the list....haven't done it in awhile...lets look it up | 03:44 |
| cjen2837 | i already got it working with yours so don't want to mess anything up | 03:44 |
| cjen2837 | but i'll try putting it in there | 03:44 |
| reisio | no harm knowing other ways, but also, again: xmodmap is fine | 03:45 |
| snowgoggles | oh...i have a visitor ....look up org.gnome.desktop.input-sources.xkb-options remap key | 03:46 |
| cjen2837 | thanks | 03:46 |
| === sean is now known as Guest63459 | ||
| cjen2837 | if i wanted to type a "!" do i need to remap another key to that | 03:48 |
| reisio | if shift+contentmenukey doesn't work, I'm sure you can make it work | 03:49 |
| cjen2837 | shift menu key just enters a 1 | 03:50 |
| cjen2837 | i'll play around with it though | 03:50 |

| Bashing-om | hwhite: What release were you upgrading from ? | 04:21 |
| hwhite | Bashing-om: I think Saucy, but I'm not positive | 04:23 |
| hwhite | Maybe Trusty? I'm not sure if there's a way to check | 04:23 |
| Bashing-om | !eol | hwhite | 04:23 |
| ubottu | hwhite: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 04:23 |
| Bashing-om | hwhite: ^ did you follow the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades guide ? | 04:24 |
| hwhite | I followed a guide somewhere that mentioned using "do-release-upgrade", so probably not that one | 04:25 |
| Bashing-om | hwhite: Then, does " old-releases.ubuntu.com " ring a bell ? | 04:26 |
| xangua | hwhite: sounds like you manually replaced your source list file, did you? Or was it the update manager that offer you to upgrade to 15.10? | 04:26 |
| hwhite | I did it manually | 04:26 |
| hwhite | Bashing-om: It does not | 04:26 |
| xangua | hwhite: well, that was the problem...backup and reinstall | 04:27 |
| Bashing-om | hwhite: Concur with xangua . the system is in such a disarray that will never have any confidence in it . | 04:28 |
| hwhite | No way to reverse the installation? | 04:29 |
| hwhite | Unfortunately my computer has issues booting off of USB, which complicates things | 04:30 |
| Bashing-om | hwhite: The finger of fate writes, and them moves on; there is no going back . | 04:30 |
| meskes | Ugh. I really should be firing up Word, and finishing my resume update. | 04:31 |
| meskes | But I'm procrastinating. | 04:31 |
| hwhite | I take it there's no way I can avoid having to get a boot disc or USB? | 04:32 |
| meskes | You could PXE boot it, but that's a LOT of work for a simple one time install | 04:32 |

| hwhite | And then when I do the installation from a live CD, will it backup my files and programs, or would I be forced to do it myself? | 04:34 |
| Bashing-om | hwhite: If ya really realy need to salvage this install .. will be very messy and take a long time to even find out what is possible. I am burned out this session but if you want and no other is willing to take this situation on .. I will be back fresh in about 16 hours or so . | 04:34 |

| Mia | Hey all, I'm using ubuntu gnome, and wondering if it's possible to do global menu in ubuntu gnome (lke this one http://i.stack.imgur.com/73aX2.png) | 05:31 |
| xangua | Mia: no | 05:32 |
| Mia | I'va sked the same question in #ubuntu-gnome as well but this place has much more people so yeah | 05:32 |
| Mia | xangua, oh... | 05:32 |
| Mia | :( that's bad | 05:32 |
| Mia | I don't like unity interface but the one thing I need is not there in gnome :( | 05:32 |
| xangua | Mia: that's the old gnome 2 global menu, third party program | 05:32 |
| Mia | yeah well was wondering if there is any alternative for that for gnome3 | 05:33 |
| xangua | Mia: mate desktop (fork out GNOME 2) has a global menu plugin, I think you can use it on xfce as well | 05:33 |
| Mia | I odn2t like mate :( | 05:34 |
| Mia | gnome 3 is nice | 05:34 |
| Mia | I actually like unity as well but I don't likethe app menu -- | 05:34 |
| Mia | and I was unable to find real customization for unity | 05:34 |
| Mia | I mean thee is unity tweak tool but it's very limited | 05:34 |
| Mia | (maybe I'm missing something here) | 05:34 |
| xangua | So you like unity, but you don't like unity global menu? | 05:34 |
| Mia | no it's just the opposite. I like unity but I don't like that it's not as customisable as gnome 3 | 05:35 |
| Mia | I like unity, I like it's global top bar menu, but I don't like the overall look and feel about it (such as the bar at left, or the programs menu that opens up as a part of the bar at left) | 05:35 |
| Mia | and I couldn't find much customisation options | 05:36 |
| === dax is now known as daxcat | ||
| lotuspsychje | Mia: then hide the leftbar? | 05:40 |
| lotuspsychje | Mia: and install docky at bottom or so, make it look like a gnome | 05:40 |
| Mia | lotuspsychje, oh where can I install extensions for ubuntu unity | 05:41 |
| Mia | for gnome they have this nice extensions.gnome.com | 05:41 |
| Mia | I was unable to find a simialr system for unity | 05:41 |
| lotuspsychje | Mia: what kind of extensions do you mean | 05:42 |
| Mia | all sorts | 05:42 |

| Mia | what's this | 05:44 |

| NeoFrontier | Hi, when I insert an sd card into the sdcard slot of my ubuntu laptop, it will not allow me to delete what is on it. Even when root it says it is a read only file system. Yet the lock slider on the card is not in the lock position. | 07:47 |
| NeoFrontier | what gives ? | 07:47 |
| NeoFrontier | I see it mounted as: /dev/sdb1 on /media/username/32GIGSD type fuseblk (ro,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,default_permissions,blksize=4096) | 07:48 |
| hateball | NeoFrontier: well it's mounted as ro. Does dmesg give any hints? Perhaps it was mounted ro due to errors? | 07:49 |
| NeoFrontier | hateball thanks dmesg thinks the write protect is on... | 07:50 |
| NeoFrontier | not sure if it is the adapter... | 07:51 |
| hateball | Anthony-L: Please don't pm, keep it in channel | 07:51 |
| hateball | NeoFrontier: do you have another card/adapter to test with? | 07:52 |
| hateball | NeoFrontier: you could try forcing remount rw as well | 07:52 |
| NeoFrontier | hateball somewhere somewhere... | 07:52 |
| hateball | NeoFrontier: but if it says it mounts as ro without mentioning fs errors etc... it could well be the adapter | 07:53 |
| NeoFrontier | hateball after umounting it removing it sliding the lock up and down a bit and confirming its position not in lock. it mounts rw now. | 07:57 |
| NeoFrontier | *shrug* buggy adaptor I think. | 07:57 |
| hateball | NeoFrontier: :) | 07:57 |

| Dirkos | I just added a new EXT4 disk (SDA1) but when mounted my user does not have access to write on it. How can i fix that | 08:54 |
| Caroga | Dirkos: you've mounted it using sudo, so you have mounted it using the root account, which makes it accesable to the root account. | 08:56 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Dirkos: sudo chown user /path/to/wherever you want your user to write stuff | 08:56 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Caroga: no that's vfat, ext4 has per-inode permissions | 08:56 |
| Dirkos | Caroga: I mounted it through the GUI | 08:56 |
| Caroga | I stand corrected | 08:56 |
| Dirkos | "Disk" tool with default settings as user "Dirkos" | 08:56 |
| Caroga | But simply changing ownership is sufficient to resolving your problem Dirkos, just as Triffid_Hunter said | 08:57 |

| Amethyst_Crystal | hello. i have a simple question about startup disk creator | 09:54 |
| baizon | Amethyst_Crystal: and the question is? | 09:55 |
| === dragonfly42 is now known as bluefire | ||
| === bluefire is now known as dragon42 | ||
| Amethyst_Crystal | I allowed it to accidentally erase the wrong external hard drive... except, that hard drive is exactly what startup disk creator and my whole ubuntu system is running on. It has popped up a new 'external device tab under the folders, but.. other than that, everything seems to be working still. | 09:56 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | did it just *not* do anything, and get confused? | 09:56 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | or is there something i should do to make sure everything is ok before restarting? | 09:57 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | actually that popup has disappeared now, but i erased the correct external usb and its popping up on its own | 09:59 |
| RaptorJesus | Yay | 09:59 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | so, did it just 'pretend' to erase this whole hard drive? because i shouldn't be able to do anything still | 10:00 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | or is it just impossible for it to attempt to erase the drive its already on? | 10:00 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Amethyst_Crystal: most modern machines have tons of ram. when you open files, linux has to copy them into ram so that they can be accessed. Since linux is smart, it just leaves them there if nothing else needs the ram | 10:04 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Amethyst_Crystal: so that means it'll keep running fine until linux decides to flush the disk cache, after which you'll see everything go downhill fast | 10:04 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | so | 10:05 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | is there anything i can do about this? | 10:06 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | a way to stop it? | 10:06 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Amethyst_Crystal: it's already done, reimage your usb | 10:06 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | how much time do i have | 10:06 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Amethyst_Crystal: it's not a matter of time, it's a matter of ram usage.. open anything that bites off a chunk of ram and bits of your disk cache will get flushed | 10:07 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | i see | 10:07 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Amethyst_Crystal: "flushed" as in linux will simply wipe those files from ram because it thinks they're still the same on disk (which is apparently no longer true for you) | 10:08 |
| Triffid_Hunter | then if it tries to reload them from disk, you'll get a kern.log full of filesystem errors followed by remount-ro, crashes or full on kernel panic | 10:09 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | will it just randomly choose bits of my system to destroy, or will it get stuff like saved files | 10:09 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | ok well my disk creator is 36% complete.. | 10:09 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Amethyst_Crystal: destroy? it's already destroyed, you're running on a ghost | 10:09 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | so does this mean its too late to save anything to dvd r disks? | 10:09 |

| radicate | How can I make a file that'll be editable by my user without using sudo all the time? | 10:13 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Amethyst_Crystal: you could copy files in your vfs cache to your new usb.. hard to tell which are cached though, might be some info in /proc somewhere | 10:13 |
| Deele | Where do I get User Permissions settings in ubuntu System Settings? I am following guide in http://www.instructables.com/id/Setting-Up-Ubuntu-as-a-Kiosk-Web-Appliance/?ALLSTEPS but I cant find specific user permission settings in "User Accounts" window | 10:14 |

| Amethyst_Crystal | can you please give me info about checking vfs cache and /proc? i presume terminal is involved? | 10:15 |

| linuxlove | i need to have both language english and persion how can i do that in ubuntu 14.04? | 10:18 |
| cspack | Amethyst_Crystal: the Erase Disk option doesn't delete files, it formats the partition. I'm guessing it didn't do anything since the partition was mounted. | 10:18 |

| linuxlove | Gallomimia, | 10:19 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Ana__: that shows inodes, not space. and why does your rootfs only have less than a million inodes? if you want more free inodes, delete files you don't use. each file/directory takes one inode | 10:20 |

| Amethyst_Crystal | the whole reason im doing this is cause i had an unsettling and frustrating 90 minutes of just trying to log onto ubuntu normally, it was stuck at the shell with 'broken pipe' and stuff like that. i think i was able to get around it via stuff i tried on recovery, but im tired of all the probems adding up. also, not able to install or update anything the proper way. surprisingly steam games works | 10:31 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | just fine tho.. except i suspect some games arent running because of the stupid graphic error. | 10:32 |

| lotuspsychje | batman123: are you single installing or dualboot? | 10:35 |
| Amethyst_Crystal | understood, lotuspsychje. im grateful for everyones' help tho | 10:35 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje dualboot | 10:35 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: on uefi system? | 10:35 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje i am sorry i am a novice wat is uefi system? | 10:36 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: wich Os will you be dualbooting with ubuntu? | 10:36 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje : I have windows OS and I have partitioned to use around 50 gb for ubuntu | 10:37 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: wich windows please | 10:37 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje : windows7 | 10:37 |
| lotuspsychje | !dualboot | batman123 ok try this | 10:38 |
| ubottu | batman123 ok try this: 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 | 10:38 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: but make your usb with universal usb installer first | 10:38 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje : i ll try it and see | 10:38 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje : I have a 32bit system with 2 gb ram | 10:38 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: you could choose ubuntu desktop 32bit iso, or lubuntu/xubuntu iso | 10:39 |
| Smokie | is it normal for the FTP speed from an ubuntu server to a windows os on a local network to be 15MB/s only? | 10:39 |
| huwjr | hi all - i have one ubuntu 14.04 server which has an ethernet alias set in /etc/network/interfaces - it’s set to auto but it NEVER comes up at reboot? i have about 10 other trusty hosts with the same config, and they all work flawlessly? any ideas. | 10:39 |
| lotuspsychje | Smokie: maybe the ##networking guys might troubleshoot that? | 10:40 |
| batman123 | @lotuspychje : which verison 14.04 or 15.04 | 10:40 |
| lotuspsychje | Smokie, huwjr there is also #ubuntu-server if you like | 10:40 |
| alkisg | Smokie: local network 100 mbps or gigabit? | 10:40 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: depends on you mate, LTS or non-lts | 10:40 |
| popey | lotuspsychje: seems a valid question for here | 10:40 |
| lotuspsychje | !lts | batman123 | 10:40 |
| ubottu | batman123: LTS means Long Term Support. Until 12.04 LTS versions of Ubuntu were supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; since 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) LTS versions will be supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Trusty (Trusty Tahr 14.04) | 10:40 |
| huwjr | soz :) | 10:42 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje : I am installing 15.04 32 bit , hope it works | 10:42 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: ok mate good luck! | 10:43 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje : thanks a lot ! | 10:43 |
| batman123 | will let u know if i face any issue | 10:43 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: if you have issues, you can always come back here | 10:44 |
| Smokie | thanks lotuspsychje | 10:44 |
| Smokie | alkisg, 1gbit local nework | 10:44 |
| k1l_ | batman123: better install 15.10 from the start. 15.04 is already dead and you need to upgrade that | 10:44 |
| Smokie | alkisg, i can scp from my outside server to my local server at home @ 40MB/s, so it should reach that or more locally | 10:45 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje : one quick question , do u recommend me to use unetbootin to create a bootable pendrive or something else . | 10:45 |
| k1l_ | batman123: and do you have 32bit only hardware? or why do you install not 64bit? | 10:45 |
| alkisg | Smokie: if it's 40 MB and not mbit, then yup your ftp speed is very low | 10:45 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: i would try that universal usb installer, if you create from windows | 10:45 |
| batman123 | @kill_ : I have a 32 bit hardware , should i install 15.10 32 bit iso or 15.10 64 bit ISO | 10:46 |
| lotuspsychje | Smokie: be carefull with ftp also for security reasons | 10:46 |
| k1l_ | batman123: what hardware is it exactly? | 10:46 |
| Wug | batman123: the 32 bit one. | 10:46 |
| Wug | 64 bit software is not backwards compatible with 32 bit hardware | 10:47 |
| Smokie | lotuspsychje, its inside my home network | 10:47 |
| batman123 | @k1l_ 32 bit CPU | 10:47 |
| batman123 | @wug : thanks | 10:47 |
| lotuspsychje | Smokie: but your network attached to internet also? | 10:47 |
| Wug | however, the opposite is true, so just because it currently has 32 bit software on it doesn't necessarily mean it's a 32 bit cpu. have you looked up the model number to make sure it really is a 32 bit chip? | 10:47 |
| lotuspsychje | Smokie: maybe do a test over ssh? | 10:48 |
| k1l_ | batman123: are you sure its 32bit only? which one is it? | 10:48 |
| Wug | batman123: if it was made in the last few years its almost certainly 64 bit | 10:48 |
| Wug | as far as I know all new mainstream CPUs have been 64 bit for some time | 10:48 |
| Smokie | lotuspsychje, ftp is blocked from my outside network.. i can 'scp' to my local network just fine and i can reach up to 40MB/s | 10:49 |
| batman123 | @k1l_ : its old laptop , i checked the config, its a 32 bit system with 2 gb ram | 10:49 |
| batman123 | should i use 32 bit ISO or 64 bit ISO | 10:49 |
| k1l_ | batman123: the OS doesnt tell anything about the cpu. please name the cpu so we can have a look | 10:49 |
| batman123 | @k1l_ : its intel centrino | 10:49 |
| Wug | what year was it made | 10:49 |
| lotuspsychje | batman123: wich brand/model of laptop? | 10:50 |
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje : latitude d630 | 10:50 |
| Smokie | lotuspsychje, scp from server1 to server2 on my local network reaches 70MB/s | 10:50 |
| Smokie | just tested now | 10:50 |
| Wug | yeah that's 32 bit all right | 10:50 |
| Wug | (I have a d620) | 10:51 |
| Smokie | so the issue is from server1 to my windows machine over FTP | 10:51 |
| === leslie is now known as Guest43954 | ||
| batman123 | @lotuspsychje : Dell Latitude D630 | 10:51 |
| Wug | batman123: go for the 32 bit version | 10:51 |
| alkisg | Smokie: is that 70 MB/s or 70 mbit/s? byte or bit? | 10:51 |
| batman123 | @wug : sure | 10:51 |
| Wug | also, you may encounter issues making the graphics driver work | 10:51 |
| k1l_ | batman123: thing is: google dropped the 32bit version of chrome. and other distributions are thinking of dropping 32bit isos at all. so if there is any doubt one should check if the hardware is capable of 64 bit OS. | 10:51 |
| Smokie | alkisg, 70MB/s | 10:51 |
| alkisg | Smokie: which ftp server and client are you using? | 10:51 |
| batman123 | @wug: I will go with 15.10 ISO 32 bit | 10:51 |
| Wug | the d620 has an nvidia quadro 110m, which is no longer supported by nvidia drivers on linux | 10:52 |
| lotuspsychje | k1l_: will lubuntu and xubuntu also drop the 32bit iso's? | 10:52 |
| Wug | It may be that the d630 has the same issue | 10:52 |
| k1l_ | lotuspsychje: i dont think there was an decision yet. and i think it makes sense for lubuntu to keep 32bit isos | 10:52 |
| lotuspsychje | k1l_: ok tnx | 10:53 |
| k1l_ | batman123: which cpu uses the system exactly? | 10:53 |
| Wug | Might be worth it to get rid of 32 bit desktop ubuntu isos | 10:53 |
| k1l_ | batman123: i see d630 ones with intel core 2 duo t7300 which is 64bit capable | 10:53 |
| Wug | keep server around so random old junk machines can be run in headless configuration | 10:53 |
| alkisg | Wug: get rid of 32bit isos, why?! | 10:54 |
| lotuspsychje | k1l_: indeed: http://www.cnet.com/products/dell-latitude-d630/specs/ | 10:54 |
| alkisg | We're using those in thousands of machines here... | 10:54 |
| Wug | alkisg: where is here, and how are you using them | 10:54 |
| alkisg | Wug: www.ltsp.org/stories/widget-map/?location=Greece | 10:54 |
| lotuspsychje | alkisg: its an article that mentioning it, removing 32bit iso's | 10:54 |
| lotuspsychje | alkisg: i think it was on softpedia | 10:55 |
| alkisg | lotuspsychje: afaik it won't happen for 16.04 | 10:55 |
| batman123 | @k1l_ I did right click on computer on my windows OS ,i opened properties and I saw the operating system is 32 bit | 10:55 |
| k1l_ | alkisg: i didnt hear ubuntu said they will drop it. other distributions started iirc. but ubuntu links for the 64bit as standard already | 10:55 |
| k1l_ | batman123: that doesnt say anything about the cpu. | 10:55 |
| k1l_ | batman123: windows prefers a 32bit OS. | 10:56 |
| Wug | alkisg: I don't know much about how ltsp is architected, but given that we're talking thin clients, do they have local bootability at all? | 10:56 |
| k1l_ | so please look up which CPU is build in. | 10:56 |
| alkisg | k1l_: fedora also still offers i386, and of course debian will be the last to drop it | 10:56 |
| batman123 | @k1l_ : The processor description goes as Intel(R)Core(TM)2 Duo CPU | 10:56 |
| bazhang | thats 64 | 10:57 |
| alkisg | Wug: they're usually p4 machines with windows xp, dual-booted as i386 clients over the network, where the server is also installed in i386 arch to serve as a template for them | 10:57 |
| k1l_ | batman123: thats a 64bit one | 10:57 |
| batman123 | oh ok | 10:58 |
| bazhang | core duo is 32/core2duo is 64 | 10:58 |
| Wug | alkisg: the suggestion I made was getting rid of the x86 iso only for desktop installs, and keeping it for server ones, so it sounds like that configuration would still work fine | 10:58 |
| Smokie | alkisg, vsftp on the ubuntu server and WinSCP on windows | 10:58 |
| batman123 | @K1l_ : should install 15.10 64 bit then? | 10:58 |
| alkisg | Wug: ltsp servers are installed using the desktop iso, they're not headless, they need the full gui as a template for the clients | 10:58 |
| k1l_ | batman123: 64bit is right. if you install 14.04 or 15.10 is your decision. with 15.10 you need to upgrade to 16.04 until july | 10:59 |
| Wug | ubuntu server is just ubuntu with different packages, there's no reason you can't install a UI on it | 10:59 |
| alkisg | Wug: compiling or serving an .iso isn't the problem; the problem is QA'ing it. As long as enough i386 installations are out there, there's not a real reason to drop it | 10:59 |
| alkisg | Wug: there's no reason to select ubuntu-server.iso when I want ubuntu-desktop.iso. Of course I could even netinstall without even mini.iso, but having the 32 bit desktop.iso is the easiest way | 10:59 |
| lotuspsychje | alkisg: if lubuntu 16.04 32bit iso's would remain, might run like a charm on xp boxes? | 11:00 |
| Wug | I guess | 11:00 |
| alkisg | lotuspsychje: gnome-flashback is as light as lubuntu, but way more mature, that's what we're using | 11:00 |
| Wug | but as you yourself point out it's QA overhead (ubuntu's QA process has bee really strained lately) and your case is something of an edge case | 11:01 |
| alkisg | I.e. we start with the normal ubuntu-desktop-32bit.iso (unity) and install gnome-flashback over it | 11:01 |
| Wug | I'd imagine the returns on QAing the 32 bit isos are diminishing very rapidly | 11:01 |
| lotuspsychje | alkisg: here's the article: http://news.softpedia.com/news/ubuntu-linux-32-bit-iso-images-are-up-for-discussion-again-499754.shtml | 11:01 |
| Wug | seeing as all consumer hardware produced today is 64 bit, no new computers are x64 | 11:02 |
| Wug | x86* | 11:02 |
| alkisg | Wug: see the popcon results for a comparison between i386 and amd64 installations | 11:02 |
| alkisg | i386 machines are very much still in use\ | 11:02 |
| lotuspsychje | lets continue support? or proceed in #ubuntu-discuss perhaps | 11:02 |
| InvGhost | hello, has somebody had problems with ubuntu 15.10 sound hissing? After instalation there was hiss- i fixed it with this http://xps13-9333.appspot.com/#background_noise , but after i updated my apps with software apps with software updater it doesnt work anymore. Any idea how to fix it? Here is source code of this py that fixed issue first time http://xps13-9333.appspot.com/root/usr/local/bin/white_noise_fix.py | 11:03 |
| alkisg | Wug: http://popcon.ubuntu.com/ ==> amd64: 681069, i386: 2069261 | 11:03 |
| alkisg | 3 times more i386 installations | 11:03 |
| lotuspsychje | !sound | InvGhost | 11:03 |
| ubottu | InvGhost: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 11:03 |
| Wug | how many of those are headless though | 11:03 |
| alkisg | Wug: in any case, it's not time to drop i386 cds yet. They're still used widely. OK, let's move on to supporting people here. :) | 11:05 |
| mmk | hi | 11:08 |
| scatman | hi | 11:08 |
| mmk | yes | 11:08 |
| mmk | 29 africa | 11:09 |
| bazhang | mmk do you have an ubuntu support issue | 11:09 |
| alive | alkisg: Is 64 bit the default now at least? | 11:13 |
| alkisg | alive: the ubuntu download page points to 64bit isos by default, yes | 11:14 |
| alive | Nice :) | 11:14 |
| lesshaste | something has gone screwy with the keyboard layout since a recent ubuntu upgrade. System Settings->Text Entry shows the right layout but I get < when I press the \ key for exampel | 11:21 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest48442 | ||
| alkisg | lesshaste: does this also happen if you select the guest session? | 11:27 |
| lesshaste | alkisg, interesting question..how do I do that? | 11:32 |
| alkisg | lesshaste: you select it from the menus, google it a bit because I'm not using unity so I can't tell you the exact menu | 11:33 |
| Raz0r-X | Could anyone help me with a script... I want to count how many minutes it takes from one job to another in a log file. The first job i want to count time from is where it says MSG[BEGIN JOB /srv/korv and i want it to stop counting after the log has said MSG[END JOB /srv/bingo | 11:36 |
| hateball | Raz0r-X: "time job1 >> log.txt && time job2 >> log.txt" ? | 11:39 |
| hateball | oh | 11:40 |
| lesshaste | alkisg, ok thanks | 11:40 |
| Raz0r-X | hateball I would like to run this at the end of the night to see how long it all took... | 11:41 |
| varaindemian | is ubuntu (with snappy ubuntu core) trying to make something similar to arch? | 11:41 |
| hateball | Raz0r-X: I cant say I understand what you are talking about | 11:42 |
| Raz0r-X | hehe | 11:42 |
| hateball | Raz0r-X: I dont know what your jobs that print /srv/bingo are | 11:42 |
| Raz0r-X | heeh you dont need to know :)) | 11:42 |
| EriC^^ | is the time program wrong or something? | 11:43 |
| EriC^^ | time -f "\t%E real,\t%U user,\t%S sys" ls -Fs | 11:43 |
| EriC^^ | in the examples section doesn't work | 11:43 |
| EriC^^ | time -f "%e" <program> says -f command not found | 11:43 |
| Raz0r-X | I have a logfile where all the jobs are displayed. The logfile name is korv.txt. Every night i run 100´s of jobs. I want to measure how long all those jobs take | 11:43 |
| Raz0r-X | i want to measure from where it says MSG[BEGIN JOB /srv/korv | 11:44 |
| Raz0r-X | to | 11:44 |
| Raz0r-X | where it says MSG[END JOB /srv/bingo | 11:44 |
| Raz0r-X | :) | 11:44 |
| hateball | But do you have any timestamps in said log? | 11:44 |
| EriC^^ | Raz0r-X: is there a time stamp next to it? | 11:44 |
| Raz0r-X | hateball yes i have timestamps | 11:44 |
| Raz0r-X | yes | 11:44 |

| Mia | hey all, the "show live preview" option in my switcher is not working | 11:45 |
| Mia | do you have any guesses why this canebe? | 11:45 |
| Mia | no matter what I check, it just displays the simpel icons that's all | 11:46 |

| EriC^^ | nor -o | 11:46 |

| hateball | Raz0r-X: well no matter how you go about it you'll have to script a bit to parse a logfile... | 11:56 |
| Raz0r-X | Thats where you come in hateball ;P | 11:57 |

| R13ose | I can't connect to the wireless internet on my laptop. What should I do? | 11:59 |
| hateball | R13ose: What version of Ubuntu? What wifi chipset (lspci) ? | 12:02 |
| R13ose | hateball: 15.10 and Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 Wireless Network Adaptor (rev 01). Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 14) | 12:07 |
| hateball | R13ose: with lspci -k, does it show wifi using ath9k ? | 12:11 |
| EriC^^ | Raz0r-X: did you fix the script? | 12:11 |
| R13ose | hateball: yes | 12:12 |
| hateball | R13ose: sadly I dont have much experience with atheros chipsets. Maybe there are backport modules that work better | 12:13 |
| hateball | R13ose: have you tried livebooting 16.04 beta? it has a newer kernel/modules | 12:14 |
| R13ose | hateball: this was working before but when I got on my computer last night this started to fail. | 12:14 |
| hateball | R13ose: oh! | 12:14 |
| hateball | R13ose: Well maybe you have had a kernel update then? Check /var/log/apt/history* | 12:15 |
| hateball | R13ose: and if so, try rebooting and going into grub menu (hammer shift-key) and pick an older kernel to boot from | 12:15 |
| R13ose | hateball: the last entry in there is me installing filezilla | 12:16 |
| dragoonis | Can't seem to install "vncpasswd" command onto my Ubuntu install - can someone lend a hand ? | 12:17 |
| hateball | R13ose: there should be a number of history files, they get rotated and gzipped | 12:17 |
| R13ose | hateball: I only see in that folder history.log and term.log | 12:18 |
| hateball | R13ose: weird. is this a very new install? it should show a number of changes even if the very last one happened to be filezilla | 12:20 |
| EriC^^ | Raz0r-X: i've modified it for you if you want it | 12:20 |
| hateball | R13ose: also, if you try authenticating to an AP, does anything show up when you run "dmesg" ? | 12:20 |
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 12:21 |
| R13ose | hateball: new install and the history file shows a number of changes. All I can find in dmesg is IPv6: ADDRCONF (NETDEV_UP) enp4s0f1 or wlp3s0: link is not ready | 12:24 |
| hateball | R13ose: are any of those changes related to a new kernel? | 12:24 |

| \9 | umoukun: so, try configure it? dpkg --configure multiarch-support | 16:31 |
| wsdjeg | maybe it is due to how my terminal send `alt` to the app | 16:31 |
| herrkin | lotuspsychje, yes | 16:31 |

| k1l_ | <k1l_> briandw1969: so did you put your user into the www-data group? did you relogin after that? does it work now? | 17:01 |
| briandw1969 | what is the cmd to do that | 17:01 |
| zykotick9 | briandw1969: how did you install "LAMP" exactly? with apt-get/synaptic/U.S.C. or was it something you downloaded from internet? | 17:03 |
| briandw1969 | apt gey | 17:03 |
| briandw1969 | *get | 17:03 |
| k1l_ | !adduser | briandw1969 | 17:03 |
| ubottu | briandw1969: To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "sudo" - See !sudo | 17:03 |
| zykotick9 | briandw1969: ok, just checking. | 17:03 |
| k1l_ | briandw1969: "sudo adduser user group" | 17:03 |
| k1l_ | briandw1969: and you really need to look into those basics and start to learn them. | 17:04 |
| briandw1969 | yes i know i have started downloading cmd 'cheat sheets' | 17:05 |
| matthewkim | hello~ | 17:07 |
| daftykins | andy_wfc: none. | 17:07 |
| ubuntu-mate | Hmm | 17:08 |
| snowgoggles | briandw1969: perhaps you should use a vm envorinment for your LAMP stack in an unfamiliar OS...that way you can mess it up and then revert your changes | 17:08 |
| === ubuntu-mate is now known as Saxophone | ||
| briandw1969 | true,i have virtualbox installed | 17:08 |
| Saxophone | Anyone can help me with a Tor on Ubuntu Live (no persistance) installation? The current guide is a bit confusing. | 17:08 |
| snowgoggles | briandw1969: are you snapshotting your changes? | 17:08 |
| Saxophone | Got some instructions here: https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | 17:09 |
| briandw1969 | no,this is an expendable machine,nothing i cant reload | 17:09 |
| Saxophone | But my version is Vivid Vervet, so can I just type that then? | 17:09 |
| daftykins | Saxophone: that's EOL. | 17:10 |
| \9 | !vivid|Saxophone | 17:10 |
| ubottu | Saxophone: Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) was the 22nd release of Ubuntu. Support ended on February 4, 2016. See !eol, !eolupgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/vivid | 17:10 |
| daftykins | we do not help with EOL releases | 17:10 |
| Saxophone | Oh I see. | 17:10 |
| k1l_ | Saxophone: dont use 15.04 anymore. its insecure now | 17:11 |
| Saxophone | Mk mk, ty. | 17:11 |
| Saxophone | Still, 2 more questions about this install? In case I want to do it in future. | 17:11 |
| Saxophone | Or just 1 at least...do I do from Source Tor or just regular? | 17:11 |
| k1l_ | !tor | Saxophone | 17:12 |
| ubottu | Saxophone: Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl | 17:12 |
| Saxophone | Oh right you guys have scripts, eat | 17:12 |
| Saxophone | *neat | 17:12 |
| Saxophone | Yeah the repositories are not advised on the main page. | 17:13 |
| k1l_ | Saxophone: use an actual supported ubuntu. use the packages from tor website. | 17:13 |
| Saxophone | Right, will switch. | 17:13 |
| Saxophone | By the way, general question...It seems that if I torrent in Transmition, this does not affect Windows (minus installing something, which I don't). This is true right? | 17:15 |
| lotuspsychje | Saxophone: what do you mean by affect | 17:17 |
| Saxophone | Like, in torrenting clients, it opens up Windows to vulnerabilities since you open connections. If you do it from Windows. | 17:17 |
| daftykins | that's a silly statement, ALL internet based connectivity is opening up to attack | 17:18 |
| Saxophone | Right, but if its on a live USB torrenting with Win partition unmounted it shouldn't bother it. I.e. what harms can attacks cause via Linux with no persistence? | 17:19 |
| lotuspsychje | Saxophone: start from the beginning mate, install a supported ubuntu version | 17:20 |
| lotuspsychje | Saxophone: this way you wont get any security attacks | 17:20 |
| daftykins | Saxophone: running an internet based application on a non-updatable live session is fundamentally ridiculous | 17:20 |
| Saxophone | Ok, but assuming the files are ok, what harm can it really do? It has no access to system files and partition, and session prevents any changes on next redo, plus I can just reformat if I need to. | 17:23 |
| daftykins | it doesn't touch Windows, but the way you're using your computer is ridiculous in my opinion | 17:23 |
| daftykins | now as we've said, move away from the EOL release | 17:23 |
| Saxophone | Yeah I will when I restart soon. Although I could do with less opinions, I just wanted some technical details. ;p | 17:24 |
| daftykins | these are technically based opinions | 17:24 |
| daftykins | you are being a very silly internet user, mark my words. | 17:25 |
| Amm0n | Using tor on an installation without knowing what it does and how to prevent ipleaks is ridiculous :) | 17:25 |
| Saxophone | I'm not doing anything shady, just getting Game of Thrones lol. I asked about Tor cause I was curios. | 17:25 |
| daftykins | aaand ignored | 17:26 |
| Amm0n | Use Tails | 17:26 |
| Saxophone | Yeah I have Tails. | 17:26 |
| Saxophone | I wanted to test the Tor install process in case of doing Ubuntu on a machine. Will get a stable first tho'. | 17:26 |
| texla | I have Ubuntu-14.04.4 installed on a Desktop and a laptop I used a live cd to install an o/s to a usb pen drive from the desktop the pen drive will run on the desktop but not on the laptop the laptop only opens the folders from the pen drive.....why!!! | 17:42 |
| k1l_ | texla: what is on that pendrive? | 17:43 |
| texla | I linuxlite | 17:44 |
| ZeloZelos | can we do a full install to usb key?, i dont want to set up persistence, the user keeps breaking it somehow. | 17:44 |
| k1l_ | and the issue is now what exactly? your laptop cant boot from usb? | 17:44 |
| texla | Another has mint 17 and another pclinos and work on pc | 17:44 |
| k1l_ | ZeloZelos: you can install onto a usb. just choose that as destination in the installer | 17:46 |
| Jordan_U | ZeloZelos: Yes, but as USB drives tend to be slow it's going to run slowly. Also, if you plan to use it on multiple machines via UEFI there are additional considerations that you need to take into account. | 17:46 |
| ZeloZelos | i have a usb key set up for install, the usb is for 1 system that has no internal disk, i have a blank 20gb key ready to go, booted installer and the blank usb did not show up | 17:47 |
| k1l_ | yeah, you loose the mobility then in most cases. but if its static in that machine then why not (besides its really really slow) | 17:47 |
| texla | k1l_, The problem is that it does not boot from usb it can mount but does not boot | 17:47 |
| ZeloZelos | do i mount the 20gb disk (installing to) ? with pmount? mount? | 17:48 |
| k1l_ | texla: if you talk about "mounting" its already to late. since booting doesnt work when another OS is running already. | 17:49 |
| Jordan_U | ZeloZelos: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l". | 17:49 |
| Jordan_U | ZeloZelos: When working properly, the installer will do all mounting itself (after partitioning is done). | 17:50 |
| ZeloZelos | Jordan_U, i get that, how do i get the installer to see the usb key as the target to install to? | 17:50 |
| k1l_ | ZeloZelos: open a terminal and do a "sudo parted -l" after the other usb is plugged in, while beeing on the live desktop mode | 17:51 |
| texla | k1l_, I am not trying to run two o/s at once I insert the pen drive then start the laptop up | 17:51 |
| === uranus is now known as Guest77595 | ||
| ZeloZelos | then what k1l_? | 17:52 |
| k1l_ | texla: there is no "Mounting" in bios boot mode. so it makes no sense to talk about that. if you mount the usb drive after another OS is already loaded that is not related to booting that usb | 17:52 |
| ZeloZelos | i c | 17:52 |
| k1l_ | ZeloZelos: show the outpu in a paste.ubuntu.com and show the link here | 17:52 |
| ZeloZelos | i will have to wait till she comes back home, she took the laptop with her to school | 17:53 |
| Jordan_U | ZeloZelos: That command won't change anything, it will just get us information to better understand the state of your system. | 17:53 |
| ZeloZelos | what will i be looking for? | 17:53 |
| k1l_ | ZeloZelos: if the 2nd usb drive is listed there | 17:54 |
| ZeloZelos | kk, if it is not? | 17:54 |
| k1l_ | look at dmesg what the issue is. | 17:54 |
| k1l_ | also, try another usb port | 17:54 |
| texla | k1l_, Mounting is just to say it shows me the files after the ubuntu is loaded rather than the other o/s from startup | 17:54 |
| ZeloZelos | it only has the 2, they both work | 17:54 |
| ZeloZelos | i think 1 is usb3, does that make any difference? | 17:55 |
| jetole | Hey guys. I want to pin a PPA but I don't understand how I determine what the name should be that I configure for pinning for a PPA. Can anyone help me understand how that apt preference name is defined for a ppa or any other source? | 17:55 |
| k1l_ | ZeloZelos: ok. if you dont want to provide the output via a pastebin so others can look you need to make conclusions yourself | 17:56 |
| k1l_ | texla: i dont know if linuxlite needs special handling of their isos | 17:56 |
| ZeloZelos | i would like to, but the system is not here..i suppose i could do it with this machine | 17:56 |
| lotuspsychje | !pinning | jetole is what you need? | 17:56 |
| ubottu | jetole is what you need?: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 17:56 |
| ZeloZelos | i will try that thanks for the advice/help ;) | 17:57 |
| lotuspsychje | jetole: we dont support external ppa's neither if thats what your trying? | 17:57 |
| texla | k1l_, But it and all the others work on the desktop I wonder why the laptop is different | 17:58 |
| === lambda is now known as Guest8866 | ||
| k1l_ | texla: does that machine boot other usbs? | 17:58 |
| k1l_ | texla: please first chech the bios settings and the bios boot menu. | 17:59 |
| jetole | lotuspsychje: I have read that a couple times but if I want to pin a PPA, I don't understand how I figure out what name to use for "Pin: release o=". They show an example with one PPA but I don't understand, for example "Pin: release o=LP-PPA-kubuntu-ppa-backports", how did they determine the name is "LP-PPA-kubuntu-ppa-backports" ? | 17:59 |
| jetole | lotuspsychje: no I don't need help with the PPA itself. The PPA I am sure works fine. I am asking about APT pinning in general with PPA | 17:59 |
| lotuspsychje | jetole: maybe start from the beginning, you need a ppa for wich package? | 18:00 |
| jetole | lotuspsychje: I have the ppa. It's for a newer version of tmux but there are packages in the ppa that I want to ensure are not accidentally installed over system provided packages so I am trying to determine how I create the name for the PPA used for pinning and want to understand how it's actually created so I can apply the same logic to any PPA based pinning in the future regardless of the source PPA | 18:01 |
| texla | k1l_, I have checked the bios and set to boot for cd/dvd which is the only other setting with the accept ion of normal boot the cd and dvd boot normally | 18:02 |
| lotuspsychje | jetole: wich ubuntu version are you on? | 18:02 |
| SkepticalParrot | I used a Kali Linux live USB to test the security of my network... and then afterwards, attempting to boot into my ubuntu OS... I could not boot. And my laptops software that scans for issues came back with corrupted OS. Is there anything I can do at this point? | 18:02 |
| lotuspsychje | SkepticalParrot: can you still enter grub? | 18:03 |
| jetole | lotuspsychje: so my question is how do I determine the name used in pinning of a PPA. How do I get "LP-PPA-kubuntu-ppa-backports" (Used in the example on the pinning documentation page you posted) from "ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports" ? | 18:03 |
| jetole | lotuspsychje: 15.10 | 18:03 |
| lotuspsychje | !backports | jetole | 18:03 |
| ubottu | jetole: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 18:03 |
| artur | most recomended virtualisation tool for linux/ubuntu? | 18:03 |
| SkepticalParrot | lotuspsychje: no. It doesn't even boot to grub. | 18:03 |
| lotuspsychje | artur: virtualbox is pretty nice | 18:03 |
| jetole | lotuspsychje: I don't think you understand the question. The backports page doesn't have a answer regarding the naming convention | 18:04 |
| SkepticalParrot | I encrypted my installation and now I cannot back up my files. | 18:04 |
| artur | except virtualbox ;) | 18:04 |
| jetole | for the pin name, for a ppa? do I just prefix the referenced ppa with "LP-PPA-" and then change the ppa tag "/" to "-" | 18:05 |
| jetole | ? | 18:05 |
| jetole | looking at the example, that looks like how it's done | 18:05 |
| SkepticalParrot | The installation is Ubuntu desktop... can I rescue it with the Ubuntu Server live USB? | 18:06 |
| === canonikip is now known as Loopeth_ | ||
| lotuspsychje | artur: vmware | 18:07 |
| artur | on linux? | 18:07 |
| jetole | SkepticalParrot: Did you encrypt your /home directory or did you encrypt the root partition? | 18:07 |
| artur | cool didnt know | 18:07 |
| SkepticalParrot | I think both. | 18:07 |
| jetole | SkepticalParrot: what is displayed on the console when you boot? You said it doesn't boot to grub. What does it do? | 18:08 |
| SkepticalParrot | jetole: it says "Media test failure, check cable." then says "No Boot Device found. Press any key to reboot the machine." | 18:10 |
| === ladrua_ is now known as ladrua | ||
| jetole | SkepticalParrot: I would boot into a live distro with a gui (easier to multi task) you may be able to do this with ubuntu server but it won't provide anything you don't already have... | 18:10 |
| jetole | SkepticalParrot: in the live OS, look at your partitions, try to mount them, etc | 18:11 |
| jetole | SkepticalParrot: from the live, you can run `sudo apt-get install gparted` (without the quotes) and it can give you a good view. Then you can try mounting them from the command line with something like `mount /dev/sda1 /mnt` (that is if /dev/sda1 is a partition | 18:12 |
| jetole | SkepticalParrot: if you cannot mount a partition like that due to some mount error and you have looked at all partitions then, I am not saying your system needs a re-install yet, because I just can't know enough about it over chat, but chances are that it probably will and if you don't have the knowledge or experience, this can be a very difficult thing for someone to remotely assist with over IRC | 18:13 |
| k1l_ | texla: did the laptop boot other usb pendrives or other OS on that exact pendrive before? | 18:13 |
| jetole | SkepticalParrot: maybe boot a live distro and install team viewer in the live distro and let someone connect to it remotely to troubleshoot | 18:13 |
| SkepticalParrot | Oh, I know how to install operating systems. | 18:14 |
| SkepticalParrot | Mom comes to me for tech support. lol | 18:14 |

| Eliter | lyze: yeah, I want to upgrade them | 18:16 |
| lyze | Eliter: sudo apt-get upgrade | 18:16 |
| Eliter | lyze: I did that | 18:16 |
| texla | k1l_, I have other pen drives made the same way on the same desktop>ie: mint 17 pclinuxos,puppylinux porteus,etc they all react the same way on the laptop | 18:16 |
| lyze | Eliter: also a dist-upgrade ? | 18:16 |
| Eliter | still same results | 18:16 |
| humbot | use -f | 18:17 |
| Eliter | lyze: never heard of that. I will try that | 18:17 |
| humbot | not dist-upgrade | 18:17 |
| squinty | Eliter sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 18:17 |
| k1l_ | texla: so the laptop cant boot from usb | 18:17 |
| squinty | Eliter, probably new kernel files | 18:17 |
| k1l_ | Eliter: run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" | 18:17 |
| texla | k1l_, It will not boot usb pen drives from the laptop | 18:18 |
| k1l_ | the apt got a better naming of the "dist-upgrade" command: apt full-upgrade. that is not so confusing | 18:18 |
| Eliter | k1l_: I've seen people do that. What does the "&&" do? | 18:18 |
| k1l_ | texla: ok, so we dont have an ubuntu issue here at all | 18:18 |
| k1l_ | Eliter: it will run the command after the && only when the first command did finish successfull | 18:19 |
| texla | k1l_, I think you are correct in your analysis | 18:19 |

| texla | k1l_, Okay tha ks a bunch for the help | 18:21 |
| jetole | SkepticalParrot: what command did you run or what was happening when it mentioned LUKS file type | 18:22 |

| AlexQ | Hi. Are bad sectors mapped only on the filesystem level, or are HDDs able to map them out and omit them on the hardware level? | 18:23 |
| lyze | mekhami: simple screen recorder, open broadcaster … | 18:23 |
| zykotick9 | SkepticalParrot: note, if it's crypto_LUKS you need to unlock the partition first, then mount it from /dev/mapper/FOO... good luck. | 18:23 |
| compdoc | AlexQ, the hdd keeps track and 'reallocates' with spare sectors, and if SMART says you have any, its time for a new drive | 18:24 |
| uforobot | ciao | 18:24 |
| zykotick9 | SkepticalParrot: you might want to see http://askubuntu.com/questions/63594/mount-encrypted-volumes-from-command-line | 18:25 |
| mekhami | lyze: does that capture audio as well? | 18:26 |
| lyze | mekhami: I don't know about simple screen recorder but open broadcast software "studio" will defintively do. | 18:27 |
| lyze | mekhami: that one has also advanced features like recording a single video, overlapping multiple windows, multiple screens, embedding animations and a lot more | 18:27 |
| AlexQ | compdoc: I wanted to use an old drive for non-critical tasks, such as a HDD for a PVR. BTW. Does SMART work via USB2.0 to SATA enclosures? I installed gnome-disks or sth, and it shows SMART data for the internal drive, but the SMART option is grayed out for the external one connected with USB. | 18:27 |
| mekhami | lyze: i've used OBS on windows before, didn't know it was available on linux. Excellent, thank you! | 18:28 |
| compdoc | AlexQ, with usb, sometimes smart works and sometimes not | 18:28 |
| AlexQ | compdoc: Depends if the enclosure supports it? | 18:28 |
| lyze | mekhami: No problem! They are currently rewriting it to make it platform independent. It works very well actually already | 18:28 |
| uforobot | list | 18:28 |

| compdoc | AlexQ, right. you could remove the drive from the case for testing | 18:29 |
| === back is now known as Guest62364 | ||
| Guest62364 | hello all | 18:29 |
| compdoc | AlexQ, once sectors start to fail, they dont stop. you could easily damage files or lose entire directories | 18:30 |
| SkepticalParrot | zykotick9: Cannot use device /dev/sda3 which is in use (already mapped or mounted) | 18:32 |
| AlexQ | compdoc: As I am saying, I only want to record some stuff from TV, or play sth on the TV. If the disk fails completely and I loose everything on it, let it be | 18:33 |
| compdoc | then no problems | 18:33 |
| es | hey | 18:33 |
| SkepticalParrot | tried sudo mount /dev/mapper/sda3 and says mount: /blah/blah/blah mounting read-only special device /blah/blah/blah does not exist. | 18:33 |
| zykotick9 | SkepticalParrot: so it's already in use! reboot, might be the easiest solution? or figure out where it's mounted? | 18:34 |
| AlexQ | compdoc: I don't understand... I can write 4 512M blocks from /dev/null to that device and I get no errors, but when I read, it crashes on 1.7GB | 18:34 |
| compdoc | smart is the only way to know whats happening | 18:34 |
| zykotick9 | SkepticalParrot: did you call it sda3 when using "sudo cryptsetup luksOpen NAME"? | 18:35 |
| zykotick9 | SkepticalParrot: <sidenote> you can't trust sdXY to stay the same! are you _sure_ it's the right partition? are you also using LVM? | 18:36 |
| AlexQ | compdoc: I don't remember how much data I wrote on the beginning of the disk to get rid of the partition table quickly... Maybe less and now the HDD mapped the block out. I'll try to read again. Okay, I'll connect that HDD to a PC later directly via SATA and check SMART and do some tests then | 18:36 |
| SkepticalParrot | zytotick9: yes. And I ran "mount" in the command line and I don't see it mounted... also, yes... I'm sure it's the right partition. | 18:36 |
| SkepticalParrot | Is it possible the bootloader is corrupted? | 18:37 |
| SkepticalParrot | And that's why I can't boot? | 18:37 |
| zykotick9 | SkepticalParrot: does "ls /dev/mapper/" list anything? | 18:37 |
| SkepticalParrot | Yeah. 4 things. | 18:37 |
| Mia | I'm looking for a dropdown terminal solution in ubuntu | 18:38 |
| Mia | shat should I install | 18:38 |
| SkepticalParrot | "control" "crypt_LUKS" "ubuntu--vg-root" and "ubuntu--vg-swap_1" | 18:38 |
| uforobot | ciao | 18:39 |
| zykotick9 | SkepticalParrot: so you're using LVM as well! that's going to require additional mounting stuff! i don't know the exact preceedure sorry. | 18:39 |
| SkepticalParrot | :( | 18:39 |
| jilocasin0 | 'ello all | 18:40 |
| AlexQ | compdoc: Okay, I installed smartctl and it seems to be working for that device even via USB 2.0. I don't know much about SMART reports, though. Could you please have a look? http://paste.ubuntu.com/15336434/ - thats smartctl -x /dev/sdb, hope that's a good command to get some general info | 18:40 |
| zykotick9 | SkepticalParrot: that "ubuntu--vg-root" is probably what you're after... best of luck - research mounting LVM or better yet, encrypted LVM from command line. | 18:40 |

| k1l_ | jilocasin0: just run it again and see if that error happens again. or wait till the server is synced properly. or remove the old apt caches | 18:42 |
| SkepticalParrot | After this, I am never encrypting my stuff again. | 18:43 |
| k1l_ | jilocasin0: and its not related to the new ubuntu release in april | 18:43 |
| Eliter | ooops! I missed the or there! | 18:43 |
| SkepticalParrot | If this ever happens again and I need to rescue my stuff... | 18:43 |
| jilocasin0 | k11_: yea it's still happening.... those are the basic ubuntu repos for wily | 18:43 |
| lyze | SkepticalParrot: Regular backups would be also a way to prevent that | 18:43 |
| k1l_ | jilocasin0: sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* | 18:44 |
| k1l_ | jilocasin0: then try again | 18:44 |
| jilocasin0 | k11_: the last time something like this happened was just before 15.10 was released | 18:44 |
| jilocasin0 | k11_: it corrected itself several days later, hence the question. | 18:44 |
| k1l_ | jilocasin0: its not related to releases (since its in april when 16.04 will be released) its just that your mirror is not in 100% sync to the main server. so either you clear the cached list now with that command or wait until its in sync again | 18:45 |
| AlexQ | compdoc: Strange, when I was copying some files I got errors and Xubuntu even crashed (the whole X session crashed, apparently). It was kind of crazy, but that was on another laptop. Maybe the enclosure is no good, but that would be strange to have read errors two times in the exact same spot, and no bad sector reports in SMART still. PS. How can I check if the HDD + enclosure needs more than standard 0.5 A / 5V power? It came with | 18:45 |
| compdoc | AlexQ, in smart, you look for Reallocated_Sector_Ct, Reallocated_Event_Count, Current_Pending_Sector, and Offline_Uncorrectable. Yours are all zero. Theres one other named g-force errors or something that shows if the drive has been dropped or knocked around. yours doesnt have that, but no big deal | 18:48 |
| Fillipe | Hey guys, I'm adding SSL certificate but it crashes after I reload it | 18:48 |
| compdoc | AlexQ, if sectors were having problems reading/writing, the drive records it in smart | 18:48 |
| Fillipe | I'm not finding Ubuntu log error for that | 18:48 |
| AlexQ | compdoc: Thanks very much | 18:48 |
| zykotick9 | SkepticalParrot: so far the best howto i could find is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=940904 | 18:50 |
| jilocasin0 | k11_: rm'd the lists and tried again, same result..... | 18:50 |
| AlexQ | compdoc: Yeah, now I read 2 GiB of data with no errors this time. Maybe some strange error caused by the enclosure then. Thanks again | 18:51 |
| compdoc | good luck | 18:52 |

| TheSilentLink | Seveas, o do you need the ' at the end? | 19:20 |

| keithel | I feel like I've found a bug in the generated package-config file for libffi (libffi.pc), present in the distribution I'm working with (Trusty armhf), but poking around in Launchpad, it seems it's around in the current Wily amd64 package as well. I came to determine if it's really a bug (that perhaps only rears it's head in cross-compile situations) | 19:30 |
| daftykins | keithel: #ubuntu-arm | 19:30 |
| daftykins | oh amd64 too huh | 19:30 |
| keithel | The issue is that most .pc files seem to have a Libs entry like so: | 19:30 |
| TheSilentLink | Seveas, just a question for you or anyone here but do you know how to install steam? On all my attempts it installed but nothing is show when I open the program even though the process is running | 19:30 |
| keithel | Libs: -L${libdir} -ldrm | 19:31 |
| keithel | and Cflags like so: | 19:31 |
| keithel | Cflags: -I${includedir} -I${includedir}/libdrm | 19:31 |
| keithel | but the libffi.pc file just has a libs line that indicates -lffi, no -L path...: | 19:31 |
| Seveas | !steam | 19:31 |
| ubottu | Valve have officially announced that they are developing Steam and are working with !ubuntu during their development, see http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/steamd-penguins/ for further details, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valve for install instructions, you can also join #ubuntu-steam for discussion. | 19:31 |
| Seveas | TheSilentLink: I don't use steam myself, but that link above may help | 19:32 |
| keithel | Libs: -lffi | 19:32 |
| keithel | Cflags: | 19:32 |
| daftykins | keithel: given as you've already spammed the channel a fair bit, perhaps consolidating your point into a forum post, askubuntu question - or pastebin, might be helpful | 19:32 |
| keithel | So - in cross-compile situation, the compiler can't find the include files, nor the path to libffi.a/so. | 19:32 |
| keithel | daftykins, apologies. | 19:33 |

| Quintasan | Yes. | 19:52 |
| EriC^^ | Quintasan: it just skips it when you try to boot it? | 19:52 |

| weirddude | Hello, I am having trouble installing Ubuntu as my laptop reboots midway through the Ubuntu loading screen. I have an HP Envy m4 1015-dx and I tried turning off fast-boot, going in to bios and turning on Legacy Mode and turning off Secure Boot, I tried booting from the EFI file... I have Windows 10 installed and I am trying to get rid of Windows an | 21:16 |
| weirddude | d replace it with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. | 21:16 |
| k1l_ | so maybe the bot got an old database. | 21:16 |
| ZoderUgg2 | ubuntu does provide a server?\ | 21:16 |
| gr33nbits | k1l_, so no idea when it's going to be available | 21:17 |
| k1l_ | ZoderUgg2: yes. ubuntu got server isos. that is basically the same as a desktop version, just without a desktop and some more server related packages | 21:17 |
| k1l_ | gr33nbits: "sudo apt update && apt-cache policy firefox" in a pastebin please | 21:17 |
| ZoderUgg2 | k1l, uh yes, but i mean provided in the cloud? | 21:17 |
| ZoderUgg2 | not the iso or vm or virtualbox of course | 21:17 |
| ZoderUgg2 | ready to use in the cloud? | 21:18 |
| gr33nbits | k1l_, thank you very much | 21:18 |
| ZoderUgg2 | like ubuiqityhosting | 21:18 |
| weirddude | and also, http://xahlee.info/comp/i/theres_no_cloud_just_someone_elses_computer.jpg | 21:18 |

| ZoderUgg2 | k1l_ ok , not free, i am willing to pay of corse 0 - 10 dollar a month | 21:18 |
| k1l_ | ZoderUgg2: see if your "cloud" offers a development kit or ask in other channels for a server sponsor. this is not the right place for it | 21:19 |

| gr33nbits | squinty, did you download it or via apt-get? | 21:19 |
| jushur | weirddude: id advice to test the daily beta of 16.04. most likely you need a new kernel to boot it. | 21:19 |

| gr33nbits | oh then i don't know why | 21:20 |
| ZoderUgg2 | or yum ? | 21:20 |

| gr33nbits | k1l_, yes i did, thank you a bunch | 21:23 |

| claudiop | Hi. So it happens that I was bored with arch making a (recent) optimus combo one of the most painful things I ever saw on GNU/Linux, so decided to try something more stable, like a Ubuntu beta for 16.04 and leave Arch for dev stuff. So far the problem is that simply installing the Nvidia driver renders ubuntu unable to boot | 21:37 |
| claudiop | I think it boots until loading gdm, not 100% sure | 21:37 |
| claudiop | Note that I have no bumblebee nor anything like that, just vanilla system, and nvidia driver | 21:38 |
| claudiop | Where should I look at? | 21:38 |
| daftykins | you can't do that with optimus, also this is not the channel for 16.04 | 21:38 |
| jim | claudiop, well as you may know, gdm tries to start an x server, so the trouble may be there? | 21:39 |
| daftykins | nvidia drivers also refer to depending on lightdm i thought | 21:39 |
| kanzie | anyone know how I can mount my external hdd with linux lvm fs on it | 21:39 |
| daftykins | LVM isn't a file system | 21:39 |
| claudiop | daftykins, this is the channel for Ubuntu, and If I was using 15.10 I would have the same problems + trouble with skylake | 21:40 |
| daftykins | claudiop: irrelevant, #ubuntu+1 for unreleased versions | 21:40 |
| jim | kanzie, you would need lvm and device mapper support in order to see stuff on the lvm portions of that drive | 21:40 |
| kanzie | jim: yeah, Im trying to get lvm installed | 21:41 |
| claudiop | Ok, I'll make it ubuntu (=<15.10) specific.How can I blacklist a module such as the nvidia one? modprobe.blacklist=nvidia does not work | 21:41 |
| Canada89 | i found k1 | 21:41 |
| Canada89 | thanks | 21:41 |
| kanzie | jim: just dont know where to bein | 21:41 |
| kanzie | begin | 21:41 |
| daftykins | claudiop: you don't, you purge the packages - unless you're talking nouveau, then that won't help much | 21:42 |
| klas_ | hostname | 21:42 |
| daftykins | claudiop: misleading us as to the release you are on to solve problems will make things HARDER because advice will not apply to the kernel and versions of packages you have on | 21:42 |
| daftykins | so i for one am ignoring you | 21:42 |
| jim | kanzie, should be easy, it's a package with the lvm executables in it... then, you wouild need to modprobe some stuff, and then you should be ready to go... you can then do pvscan, vgscan, lvscan to see what's there | 21:42 |
| daftykins | kanzie: try running "sudo lsblk" and see what devices are returned, put it in a http://paste.ubuntu.com if you're not sure | 21:43 |
| claudiop | daftykins, Why the aggressiveness? As I said 15.10 has the same problems and some more, to know that just maybe I tried, and as such have the live here to try. What I asked doesn't really need a version, it should be agnostic unless major changes happen which was not the case for 16.04 afaik. | 21:44 |
| claudiop | Again, for 15.10. How can I purge something if the something is blocking a boot? | 21:45 |
| jim | claudiop, probably you'd get better support? | 21:46 |

| daftykins | i linked to the paste site for a reason, kanzie | 21:46 |
| kanzie | jim: yeah, already did that | 21:46 |
| kanzie | daftykins: Im not pastebin:ing two lines of text | 21:47 |
| claudiop | jim, I don't mind to work with 15.10, I also have it here, and its the currently supported. It just happens that 16.04 has better drivers, but fine, I'll try my luck at the other channel :/ | 21:47 |
| jim | ok, can you do pvscan? | 21:47 |
| daftykins | that was 3 | 21:47 |
| daftykins | and you damn well should in future | 21:47 |
| kanzie | jim, yeah it shows the /dev/sda1 with a VG named “foo”. | 21:48 |
| daftykins | volume group yep | 21:48 |
| daftykins | !lvm | 21:48 |
| bprompt | claudiop: remove like you would anything else, now, if it's not removing in the booted session due to locked files, then reboot, press Shift while booting to get the Grub menu, choose Recovery from it, go to Root Console, remount the current system as "rw" -> sudo mount -o remount,rw / <- and do the removal from there | 21:48 |

| kanzie | ok, you proved your point. You cound better than I do… stand corrected. | 21:48 |
| lordbaron99 | sup | 21:49 |
| jim | kanzie, ok great... you should now be able to do vgscan and lvscan | 21:49 |
| jim | if you only have the one vg, good enough... do you have lvs? | 21:49 |
| kanzie | jim: yeah I tracked down the name of the partition, just dont know how to mount it | 21:50 |
| claudiop | bprompt, Thanks :) | 21:50 |
| bprompt | np | 21:50 |
| kanzie | the VG is named bubba and it is of lvm2 type | 21:50 |
| kanzie | jim: ^^ | 21:50 |
| jim | kanzie, the thing is a logical volume is not a partition... it does (of course live on the pv partition)... | 21:51 |
| jim | good... and lvscan? | 21:51 |
| kanzie | jim: I lost the content of this drive once before. Then when I had to set it up again I was recommended to use lvm to avoid any future problems… the irony of that eh, here I am…lost again! :-) | 21:52 |
| jim | (you don't have to do these scans at all,,, they're just fyi) | 21:52 |
| kanzie | jim: lvscan shows it as active | 21:52 |
| kanzie | so I dont need to do vgchange -ay | 21:52 |
| jim | ok, what's your vg called? | 21:53 |
| kanzie | jim: aaaah, I dont mount the device, I moung the vg | 21:53 |
| kanzie | according to lvscan its called /dev/bubba/storage | 21:53 |
| kanzie | jim: yeah that did the trick | 21:54 |
| kanzie | so how do I best add this to fstab | 21:54 |
| jim | ok. so that means: since you activated the vg bubba, it created a dir /dev/bubba, and your lv(s) are in there... so just one lv, called storage? | 21:54 |
| jim | you can mount THAT | 21:55 |
| kanzie | jim: yeah done and done, thanks | 21:55 |
| kanzie | now I just need to add this to fstab | 21:55 |
| jim | well if the drive is "detachable", you'll probably not want it automatically mounted on boot | 21:56 |
| jim | that part is up to you though | 21:56 |
| kanzie | jim: well it is detachable technically… but nothing I ever do. Its the HDD for my Rpi | 21:56 |
| bunjee | anyone know anything about Gramps? | 21:57 |
| === ezri is now known as daxcat | ||
| jim | ok... so, summarizing... you would: attach the drive, then you can vgchange -ay, at that point the vg is active and a dir named for it appears in /dev... in that dir will be the nodes for your vgs, which you can mount | 21:59 |
| jim | going the other way, given it's mounted, to unmount, you first need to make it un-busy, which means making sure no process is cd-ed in there, and files in there are closed... then you can unmount it, vgchange -an, and detach the drive (if you ever want to that is) | 22:01 |

I've tried Ubuntu 14.04 LTS AND Ubuntu-GNOME 16.04 BETA and turning off secure boot, fast-boot (I'm on windows 10), and using EFI to no avail. I've also tried disabling acpi and that didn't work either. I also tr | 22:16 |

| Thorax2015 | Is it safe to tick or untick backports in the software & updates page? | 23:20 |
| daftykins | Malgorath: no | 23:21 |
| k1l_ | Thorax2015: its safe. since it wont install backports packages automatically | 23:21 |
| k1l_ | !backports | Thorax2015 | 23:21 |
| ubottu | Thorax2015: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 23:21 |
| weirddude | snowgoggles would it be possible that windowss isnt letting unbuntu install itself? | 23:21 |
| abhishek | when i entering this command in terminal:file /sbin/init | 23:22 |
| Thorax2015 | Awesome, thanks k1l_ | 23:22 |
| abhishek | it is gaving output like this:/sbin/init: symbolic link to /lib/systemd/systemd | 23:23 |
| daftykins | abhishek: yes, because it's a symlink to another file | 23:23 |
| daftykins | keep chasing the breadcrumbs and you'll eventually find the binary. | 23:23 |
| abhishek | so how it will fix....what can i do for that | 23:24 |
| daftykins | abhishek: you didn't ask a support question, you just made a statement of fact... so perhaps if you phrase a question... | 23:24 |
| snowgoggles | weirddude: what's the machine model? | 23:24 |
| daftykins | or as i say follow the trail and "file /lib/systemd/systemd" | 23:24 |
| weirddude | hp envy m4 1015 -dx | 23:24 |
| abhishek | ohh...sorry..my question is wrong to you....by the way thanxx daftykins | 23:27 |

| bodom | Hi there! I can't start tor "Job for tor.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status tor.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details." http://pastebin.com/bSECnki5 any ideas? | 23:34 |
| mekhami | hi all, i'm trying to understand why some of my fontawesome icons are not working. I know at least one of the icons is working, the chrome icon, but three other icons don't seem to be working. | 23:34 |
| mekhami | i put the ttf file in ~/.fonts and ran sudo fc-cache -f -v | 23:34 |
| mekhami | but the other three icons i'm trying to use are just the weird symbols that get paste dinto the editor | 23:35 |
| weirddude | snowgoggles any luck? | 23:36 |
| mekhami | 3 | 23:36 |
| mekhami | sorry about that. if someone answered, i missed it. | 23:36 |
| snowgoggles | weirddude: what bios version are you on? I'm seeing something possibly related with it's secure boot issues | 23:37 |
| weirddude | F14 | 23:38 |
| skinux | How long should it take to do a version upgrade on a Cable connection? | 23:38 |
| daftykins | a cable connection can be ANY speed, your local mirror could be ANY speed and your system could be... you guessed it, ANY speed | 23:39 |
| daftykins | so - about as long as this piece of string takes to fray, i'd say. | 23:39 |
| soulisson | Hi, I have some connection issues, my understanding is that device files allows us to interact with devices, is that correct? | 23:39 |
| silvian | depends on your download speed | 23:39 |
| snowgoggles | weirddude: f.18 has something related to secure boot...but applying that version may make your situation worse | 23:39 |
| EriC^^ | + installed packages | 23:39 |
| skinux | I have a 34M connection speed. | 23:40 |
| EriC^^ | anywhere between 1-3 hours | 23:40 |
| skinux | Is that just for downloading or installation too? | 23:40 |
| snowgoggles | weirddude: are you able to properly turn off secure boot and you're certain? check your boot option menu provided by your machine and see what options it provides | 23:40 |
| weirddude | Yes it says secure boot. I disabled that and I also turned on legacy boot which disabled secure boot as well | 23:43 |
| snowgoggles | weirddude: there's also a firmware patch for your drive as well | 23:43 |
| EriC^^ | skinux: yeah 4hours tops i'd guess | 23:44 |
| weirddude | snowgoggles how would i apply the patch? | 23:44 |
| snowgoggles | weirddude: what version of ubuntu are you attempting to install? verify you iso? did you create a live usb? from what utility? tried more than 1 usb stick? | 23:46 |

| mekhami | can anyone help me with my font issue? I'm having trouble to get fontawesome icons working. The chrome one works just fine, but others don't. I installed it into ~/.fonts, ran sudo fc-cache -f -v, logged out and in, but it's not working correctly. (For clarity, I'm trying to get it to work in i3 using i3blocks. | 23:51 |
| mekhami | http://imgur.com/bOu9F9W here's a screenshot of the chrome icon working in both the bar and vim, but the other icons don't work. | 23:51 |
