| devslash | I guess not | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| bodom | so why add an extra layer of complications? :) | 00:00 |
| devslash | thats why I chose a regular non lvm partitioning scheme | 00:00 |
| karl_ | can you run android on linux as android is linux | 00:00 |
| karl_ | like apps | 00:01 |
| nicomachus | karl_: no. you can run an Android VM with linux as the host OS though. | 00:01 |
| bodom | karl_: there is an emulator that is part of the android sdk | 00:01 |
| === Tristan-Speccy is now known as Guest47188 | ||
| tgm4883 | bodom: I don't use LVM, but to be fair, there is an argument for adding a little more complexity now in order to save a lot of headache later (not speaking specifically about LVM) | 00:02 |
| karl_ | how bout mac os x apps and windows apps i know wine runs windows apps is there anything else apart from wine | 00:02 |
| bodom | tgm4883: it's a bet :) | 00:03 |
| weirddude | alright im trying with usb | 00:03 |
| weirddude | Lol | 00:04 |
| weirddude | i think its that tpm thing | 00:04 |
| weirddude | i really do | 00:04 |
| bodom | karl_: Mac OSX apps are illegal to run anywhere expect on OSX. About windows, you can emulate it too. | 00:04 |
| bodom | *except | 00:04 |
| weirddude | because once i disabled bitlocker now its crashing faster than it was before | 00:04 |
| karl_ | hoq so u emulate windows apps | 00:05 |
| nicomachus | karl_: Play On Linux, but all it does is set up programs to run through Wine. | 00:05 |
| karl_ | how do you emulate windows apps as i got alot i want to put on linux# | 00:05 |
| nicomachus | karl_: best to just find alternatives. | 00:05 |
| karl_ | ok | 00:06 |
| nicomachus | but we're veering off-topic, especially if you aren't running Ubuntu | 00:06 |
| bodom | karl_: but if you want to run android apps, macosx apps, and windows apps, probably linux isn't your best choice. :) | 00:06 |
| karl_ | ok | 00:06 |
| bodom | karl_: linux is best at running linux apps :P | 00:06 |
| karl_ | im new to linux | 00:06 |
| karl_ | so im need to get used top it]# | 00:07 |
| weirddude | snowgoggles: If i cant find anything about the tpm module in bios where else could it be? | 00:07 |
| snowgoggles | weirddude: it's crashing faster cause it's not a dvd | 00:10 |
| weirddude | snowgoggles oh ok | 00:10 |
| daftykins | snowgoggles + weirddude what's the actual issue here? i see TPM talk and highly doubt it | 00:10 |
| snowgoggles | weirddude: check the docs on hp site for your system...TPM stands for trusted platform module it should be located in the security section in your bios. try to find official docs for your machine | 00:11 |
| bilb_ono | does anyone know a command line tool where I can output colors? color-preview #23be4d | 00:11 |
| bilb_ono | and then it outputs a little square in the terminal with that color | 00:12 |
| bilb_ono | or a loop where it does that? | 00:12 |
| daftykins | maybe ask #freenode how to annoy others ;) | 00:13 |
| mekhami | i could really use some help with these fonts | 00:15 |
| mekhami | i have apparently like 9 different font-awesome installed (at least that's what i see in gnome-font-viewer) | 00:15 |
| mekhami | and it hink that's leading to this problem | 00:16 |
| guillermo_ | qué es esto? | 00:24 |
| daftykins | english | 00:24 |
| mekhami | what in the hell is wrong with this thing | 00:25 |
| mekhami | i just removed all the fonts from .fonts | 00:25 |
| mekhami | installed fonts-font-awesome via apt-get | 00:25 |
| mekhami | still nothing | 00:25 |
| mekhami | except now even the chrome icon doesn't work | 00:27 |
| devslash | I just installed Ubuntu Server and want to connect to a windows share. Is this the correct command to run ? sudo smbclient -L //MYCOMPUTERHOSTNAME -U myusername | 00:28 |
| mekhami | this is really annoying | 00:29 |
| daftykins | one might ponder if said fonts app is not what it says on the tin | 00:29 |
| daftykins | devslash: you'll have some fun and games dealing with smbclient to actually transfer files, what's the goal here? | 00:30 |
| devslash | transfering files from windows host to my ubuntu VM | 00:30 |
| daftykins | get WinSCP for your Windows machine and transfer like that, far easier | 00:30 |
| weirddude | snowgoggles i literally cant find anything on turning off TPM. all the options on every tutorial i checked dont work | 00:30 |
| devslash | what is that | 00:30 |
| devslash | is that for ftp based transfers ? | 00:31 |
| daftykins | not quite, SFTP | 00:31 |
| daftykins | !sftp | 00:31 |
| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for its homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 00:31 |
| daftykins | er | 00:31 |
| daftykins | !scp | 00:31 |
| ubottu | scp is a secure way of copying files across networks using !SSH. Usage: scp filename user@host:filename - WinSCP is a client for Windows, available at http://winscp.net/ | 00:31 |
| devslash | i aklready have an ftp/sftp client on my windows machine | 00:31 |
| daftykins | that's not the same thing | 00:31 |
| daftykins | SFTP and FTPS are entirely different animals | 00:31 |
| devslash | sudo but you said that its for sftp | 00:32 |
| daftykins | devslash: for samba land, ideally you want to run "sudo mkdir /media/server" to create a mount point then run "sudo mount -t cifs //IP/share /media/server -o username=blah,password=blah,iocharset=utf8" | 00:32 |
| daftykins | why did you just say sudo? i don't know what you're asking | 00:32 |
| devslash | typo | 00:33 |
| daftykins | install openssh-server in the VM and then install WinSCP | 00:33 |
| devslash | ignore | 00:33 |
| daftykins | get it done. | 00:33 |
| tgm4883 | devslash: what is the hypervisor? | 00:33 |
| devslash | hyper-V | 00:33 |
| daftykins | disgusting :P | 00:33 |
| tgm4883 | double yuck, I'm not sure if there are linux tools for hyper-v or not | 00:34 |
| devslash | well thats like your opinion man | 00:34 |
| daftykins | waste of time, just do it properly as described two separate ways | 00:34 |
| tgm4883 | if you are just transferring some files, then samba is probably the easiest way to go. | 00:34 |
| daftykins | lol no | 00:35 |
| tgm4883 | daftykins: no? | 00:35 |
| daftykins | look at my example command above vs. installing WinSCP | 00:35 |
| devslash | thanks ive got it working | 00:35 |
| devslash | using ssh | 00:35 |
| daftykins | mmhmm | 00:36 |
| tgm4883 | daftykins: yes I see that | 00:36 |
| mekhami | so the package fonts-font-awesome in the universe thing is outdated | 00:36 |
| mekhami | how does one get an updated version, or convince the maintainers to update it | 00:37 |
| mekhami | http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/fonts-font-awesome | 00:37 |
| daftykins | suggest renaming to fonts-font-diabolical | 00:37 |
| daftykins | buy them beers | 00:37 |
| weirddude | snowgoggles i have a tpm driver | 00:37 |
| tgm4883 | mekhami: first you'd need to file a bug against the package | 00:37 |
| tgm4883 | actually | 00:38 |
| nacc | mekhami: to update the version in trusty, you'd need to be fixing a bug at this point (it's an LTS and already released) | 00:38 |
| tgm4883 | mekhami: actually, you'll need to either find a PPA, or package it yourself/compile | 00:39 |
| nacc | mekhami: if you want the latest version in ubuntu, you'd need the latest ubuntu (e.g., xenial has 4.5.0~dfsg-1) | 00:39 |
| mekhami | how about 'your source is over a year old' | 00:39 |
| mekhami | nacc: i have ubuntu 15.10 is that what you're talking about? | 00:39 |
| tgm4883 | mekhami: 16.04 has 4.5.0 | 00:39 |
| nacc | mekhami: 15.10 has 4.3.0~dfsg-2 ... is there a bug you're hitting? | 00:39 |
| nacc | mekhami: 16.04 has 4.5.0 as mentioned | 00:39 |
| mekhami | i need 4.4+ | 00:39 |
| nacc | mekhami: then you'll need to wait for 16.04 | 00:40 |
| mekhami | 4.3 is over a year old | 00:40 |
| mekhami | that seems really stupid | 00:40 |
| mekhami | why can't they update it | 00:40 |
| mekhami | given it's been over a year since 4.3 was released | 00:40 |
| mekhami | and several months since 4.5 came out | 00:40 |
| tgm4883 | mekhami: it's not a critical package | 00:40 |
| nacc | right, which is why it's updated in xenail, to 4.5.0 | 00:40 |
| mekhami | so basically | 00:40 |
| mekhami | unless you update your distro version | 00:40 |
| mekhami | you can never get up to date packages | 00:40 |
| tgm4883 | mekhami: that isn't true at all | 00:41 |
| mekhami | unless some magical man behind the curtain has a whim to update something | 00:41 |
| tgm4883 | mekhami: it's an unsupported package | 00:41 |
| nacc | mekhami: that's true, in that, packages don't just get updated automatically | 00:41 |
| tgm4883 | mekhami: it's maintained by the community, not canonical | 00:41 |
| n-iCe | Hi guys | 00:41 |
| n-iCe | why would you guys prefer ubuntu over lubuntu ? | 00:41 |
| nacc | mekhami: it also depends on debian in this case, i believe when wily release, debian had 4.3.0 and no one asked for 4.4.0 | 00:41 |
| mekhami | nacc: tgm4883 so my question again, is who do ineed to talk to for what seems like a super trivial update | 00:42 |
| weirddude | snowgoggles ok found it | 00:42 |
| nacc | mekhami: starting with xenial, fwiw, that package is in main, so it will get security support | 00:42 |
| nacc | mekhami: you can do it yourself, if you want to learn, or file a bug | 00:42 |
| mekhami | nacc: i'd love to learn | 00:42 |
| mekhami | nacc: where do i start | 00:42 |
| k1l_ | n-iCe: for the looks its your choice. if its a slow and/or old hardware better go with lubuntu | 00:42 |
| tgm4883 | mekhami: you need to talk to yourself, because it's not getting updated in trusty official repos | 00:42 |
| nacc | tgm4883: i think they said they were on 15.10 | 00:42 |
| n-iCe | k1l_: but seems to be working even better with newer hardware, don't you think' | 00:43 |
| nacc | mekhami: what bugfix does 4.4.0 provide that 4.3.0 doesn't, that you're hitting? | 00:43 |
| n-iCe | k1l_: what's your DE? unity? | 00:43 |
| mekhami | nacc: it's not bugs, 4.4 and 4.5 provide a whole host of new icons | 00:43 |
| tgm4883 | mekhami: probably the best place to start would be http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/ | 00:43 |
| daftykins | n-iCe: i find lubuntu ugly as all hell | 00:43 |
| mekhami | (and possibly other things but that's what i'm concerned about) | 00:43 |
| k1l_ | n-iCe: no | 00:43 |
| n-iCe | daftykins: really? 15.10? | 00:43 |
| devslash | does ubuntu server have a built in firewall | 00:44 |
| nacc | mekhami: then probably you won't see any updated to that package unless you do the steps needed yourself (or someone else in teh community cares to). the link tgm4883 sent is a good start | 00:44 |
| mekhami | nacc: i'll look into it | 00:44 |
| tgm4883 | devslash: yes, as does other flavors of ubuntu | 00:44 |
| tgm4883 | !ufw | devslash | 00:44 |
| ubottu | devslash: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 00:44 |
| devslash | iptables or ufs | 00:44 |
| devslash | ufw | 00:44 |
| n-iCe | then why Ubuntu k1l_ what do you use? | 00:44 |
| tgm4883 | n-iCe: this is really off topic | 00:45 |
| daftykins | n-iCe: all the cool kids stick to LTS only | 00:45 |
| k1l_ | n-iCe: why not? its your choice what you like best. | 00:45 |
| daftykins | n-iCe: yeah take the "what do you run?" pointless stuff to #ubuntu-offtopic please | 00:45 |
| n-iCe | besides the DE, are there differences between both? | 00:46 |
| === sins-_s is now known as sins- | ||
| k1l_ | yes. lubuntu uses zram | 00:46 |
| daftykins | default tools all differ | 00:46 |

| weirddude | daftykins you said earlier that you highly doubted my issue was TPM? | 00:47 |
| n-iCe | googlinh zram | 00:47 |

| daftykins | paracusia: none, full SSD for the OS is ideal | 01:11 |
| paracusia | i need it for storage | 01:11 |
| daftykins | why | 01:11 |
| seeit_ | do I mount /pool/projects or /dev/sdb1or9? | 01:11 |
| weirddude | http://i.imgur.com/WHgNRoi.jpg daftykins ??? | 01:12 |
| paracusia | because it needs to be faster daftykins, its NAS for virtual servers | 01:12 |
| seeit_ | because /pool/projects I've assigned permissions to my user but I'm unable to cd into it | 01:12 |
| daftykins | paracusia: you'rein the wrong channel | 01:13 |
| daftykins | seeit_: show the permissions on the path with "ls -al /mount/point/" in a http://paste.ubuntu.com | 01:14 |
| paracusia | which channel would be right, daftykins | 01:15 |
| seeit_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/15338599/ | 01:16 |
| daftykins | -server most likely | 01:16 |
| mekhami | nacc: mind if i query you about our conversation earlier? | 01:16 |
| nacc | mekhami: sure | 01:17 |
| nacc | mekhami: although topically we might want to move to #ubuntu-devel :) | 01:17 |
| daftykins | seeit_: perhaps you mounted the device as root? | 01:18 |
| seeit_ | I haven't actually mounted anything | 01:18 |
| seeit_ | that's the file system created by 'zfs create' | 01:18 |
| akik | seeit_: directories need to have x bit for someone to access them rw-rw- is probably your problem | 01:19 |
| daftykins | you have to create a file system on a block device then mount it i thought | 01:19 |
| PartTimeRogue | So I've reached the "I install Ubuntu and read a few tutorials...now what" stage of my Linux journey. Anyone have suggestions for any good beginners tutorials for fun things to do in Ubunutu? Or any good command line tutorials? | 01:20 |
| SpaceAce | weird... when I do apt-get update i get "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" | 01:20 |
| SpaceAce | anyone ever seen this? | 01:20 |
| k1l_ | PartTimeRogue: start using it. and if you are curious about things or come to an issue, read about it | 01:23 |
| k1l_ | PartTimeRogue: look at those pages: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Beginners/ | 01:24 |
| Anthony-L | am i suppose to remember every command line of every application that i want to load? | 01:24 |
| Tex_Nick | PartTimeRogue: for command line fun you might have a look at ... The Bash Hackers Wiki ... http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/start ... just a thought ;-) | 01:24 |
| === daxcat is now known as dax | ||
| SpaceAce | Anthony-L, not at all. Learn the basic commands to navigate Linux, and consult the man pages for any applications you want to use | 01:25 |
| Anthony-L | SpaceAce, i guess i have lots of reading to do. | 01:26 |
| SpaceAce | don't think of it as memorizing a string of commands | 01:26 |
| Anthony-L | it's weird how some applications have a launch icon on the GUI but some don't. | 01:26 |
| SpaceAce | understand what each part of the command does to better understand what you're doing | 01:26 |
| daftykins | and write notes on processes | 01:27 |
| Anthony-L | they should make this stuff idiot proof. :) If they could understand like, "hey computer! go to this folder now!" ahaha | 01:27 |
| daftykins | no, they really shouldn't | 01:28 |
| Anthony-L | just saying, computer syntax isn't obvious. | 01:31 |
| daftykins | it doesn't need to be, because docs exist | 01:31 |
| daftykins | most of us started with something CLI as a child | 01:31 |
| Anthony-L | yea, i did too, but the more innovative things became really handicapped me. hahah | 01:32 |
| Anthony-L | sry, i just need to read. i'm overwhelmed. | 01:33 |
| daftykins | you mean the more it got handed to you, you gave up? | 01:33 |
| Anthony-L | exactly | 01:33 |
| weirddude | daftykins call me stupid, but i cant find anything regarding a supervisor password in bios, i found power on password and administrator password which are both clear http://i.imgur.com/UBnJFoj.jpg | 01:33 |
| daftykins | this is why i don't like seeing things get made too easy, people always want things one step easier ;) | 01:33 |
| daftykins | i have clients on Windows that want icons on the taskbar to run programs, it's madness | 01:33 |
| daftykins | anyway - offtopic. | 01:34 |
| daftykins | weirddude: yeah it'd be admin, it doesn't need to be literal - all BIOSs are different | 01:34 |
| daftykins | i don't think that approach will apply to your machine but you can but try | 01:34 |
| weirddude | alright | 01:35 |
| Tex_Nick | of course the converse of that is dealing with the machine in macjine code (o's & 1's) Ha | 01:36 |
| daftykins | binary isn't machine code | 01:37 |
| EriC^^ | yeah i thought hex was? | 01:38 |
| weirddude | daftykins should i leave secure boot disabled and legacy support enabled? | 01:38 |
| daftykins | depends what mode you're trying to boot and install in :) | 01:39 |
| knob | Hello everyone. I am trying to mount a remote directory (from a server) on my local machine. I am using SSHFS. The command is: sshfs -p 1234 myREMOTEuser@server.ip.addy:/home/myREMOTEuser ~/localMount Yet the server asks for the password, then I get a "remote host has disconnected" | 01:39 |
| knob | Any idea what I could be doing wrong? | 01:39 |
| knob | I already tried to connect to that server via SSH, and it worked perfectly. | 01:39 |
| Tex_Nick | Not my definition ... but ... Machine code, also known as machine language, is the elemental language of computers, comprising a long sequence of binary digital zeros and ones (bits) | 01:40 |
| knob | Tex_Nick, have you read/seen the book: Code: The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software ?? By Charles Petzold. I loved that book. Great read. | 01:40 |
| Tex_Nick | and it's what we called it at Caltech | 01:41 |
| weirddude | daftykins im trying to install via efi and i just tried, no avail | 01:41 |
| daftykins | so then by all means try both modes | 01:41 |
| daftykins | weirddude: are you actually getting as far as the boot menu? | 01:41 |
| daftykins | (the ubuntu one) | 01:42 |
| Tex_Nick | knob: I have a copy & have read it a few times | 01:42 |
| weirddude | i tried uefi also same problem. | 01:42 |
| daftykins | same problem as what... i'm asking how far you got | 01:42 |
| daftykins | i think you have a paying attention issue :P | 01:42 |
| weirddude | I get past grub menu, i hit continue "install ubuntu" it shows me that ubuntu is loading up and then it reboots | 01:43 |
| daftykins | you should be going with 'try' imo | 01:43 |
| daftykins | do you at least see the different style menu from trying legacy boot? they're totally different | 01:43 |
| weirddude | daftykins yes i see the difference | 01:44 |
| daftykins | a pic of every page in the setup would be good | 01:44 |
| weirddude | daftykins howabout a video? | 01:45 |
| daftykins | nah | 01:45 |
| tedris | will it work if i use only one RSA.key for more Remote.users (SSH protocol 2 / AuthorizedKeysFile /var/KEY/%u/rsa_authorized_keys) i like to copy the rsa_authorized_keys for each user and set the spezific rights .... i can only connect with one user every time (i user ~/.ssh/config). pls help | 01:46 |

| Pinkamena_D | whenever I resume from standby with different monitors attached, they are not detected correctly. (Either black, or wrong resolution) However as soon as I click the 'system settings' gui tool, everything fixes itself.

| Techspectre | So I just discovered AMD active core control and I can now switch between 1 / 2 cores per module, depending on whether I need better multi-threading or higher IPC. Seems to work fine, but will changing the amount of cores on the fly piss off Ubuntu in some way? | 02:34 |

| virtuosoj | try the install then check your software sources to see if it added a repo | 03:44 |

| virtuosoj | idk. the .rpm worked that way in fedora | 03:45 |

| zephyr | I've used many linux distros. But coming from years of Windows to Ubuntu, I have just one quick question: how on Earth do I see a list of the applications I have installed? | 04:59 |
| zephyr | I've never used Unity and I can't for the life of me, make any sense of it whatsoever. | 04:59 |
| reisio | zephyr: like a GUI list? | 04:59 |
| zephyr | reisio, yes. | 04:59 |
| reisio | zephyr: http://askubuntu.com/questions/159664/how-to-list-user-installed-applications-not-packages | 05:00 |
| zephyr | I'm not looking for a complete "Start Menu" replacement, as I'm excited to learn something new. But this whole thing with Unity is making me crazy | 05:00 |
| happyfrench | where can I select keyboard models on ubuntu 15.10? i want to change keyboard layout 104key to hhkb layout. | 05:01 |
| zephyr | reisio, okay, that does show me what is installed, but doesn't work as a very helpful "launcher" | 05:01 |
| reisio | zephyr: windows' list of installed apps is a launcher? | 05:02 |
| reisio | zephyr: oh you want a start menu | 05:02 |
| Bashing-om | zephyr: ' dpkg --get-selections ' will dump a list of all packages you have installed. | 05:02 |
| zephyr | reisio, I'm not looking for a Start menu, per se. | 05:03 |
| reisio | zephyr: http://askubuntu.com/questions/305291/add-application-menu-to-dock ? | 05:03 |
| reisio | zephyr: k, not sure what you're looking for, then :) | 05:03 |
| zephyr | reisio, but the whole Unity menu seems so utterly bloated and pointless to me. And it does make it difficult to determine if Ubuntu has already come with an app I am looking for. | 05:04 |
| reisio | zephyr: you might take a look at KDE | 05:04 |
| reisio | zephyr: it's more "windows" | 05:04 |
| zephyr | reisio, lame example: I want to create a text document. I have no idea if I need to install Office Libre or if it's already installed. | 05:04 |

| zephyr | beardedeagle, I've done that. It's helped weed out some of the junk. But I'm still unclear how to find what I already have installed and what I don't. | 05:06 |
| zephyr | bluefive, because they can. | 05:06 |
| beardedeagle | should be an option to just look at applications in the unity hud | 05:07 |
| bluefive | zephyr: But who's going to pay more just to buy directly from Amazon?? | 05:07 |
| zephyr | beardedeagle, I agree; there SHOULD be. | 05:07 |
| beardedeagle | you can open the settings in the hud and just select applications and local files | 05:07 |
| beardedeagle | that is what I did when unity rolled out | 05:07 |
| zephyr | bluefive, the people that do. Clearly. | 05:07 |
| bluefive | zephyr: I doubt it. | 05:07 |
| beardedeagle | been a few releases since I used ubuntu though | 05:07 |
| beardedeagle | ubuntu mini + xmonad = heaven | 05:08 |
| bluefive | zephyr: But Amazon has been most kind when I've wanted to return a product for a full refund. I imagine the third-party sellers aren't so good. | 05:08 |

| blatche | Hello I need help in installing Pepper Flash, when I use the pepperflashplugin-nonfree it doesn't download anything like it should | 06:34 |
| lotuspsychje | blatche: wgats the error you getting mate | 06:35 |
| safe_ | hello | 06:35 |
| blatche | lotuspsychje: It's not downloading the Chrome installer so it just installs and does nothing. No error of any sorts | 06:35 |
| Bashing-om | chocolate chip no less .. my favorite ! | 06:35 |
| lotuspsychje | blatche: install chromium-browser? | 06:36 |
| blatche | I already have lotuspsychje | 06:36 |
| lotuspsychje | blatche: and you installed pepperflash too? | 06:37 |
| blatche | Yes I did | 06:37 |
| lotuspsychje | blatche: ok and whats not working exactly? | 06:37 |
| hateball | blatche: did you try an apt-get install --reinstall pepperflashplugin-nonfree ? | 06:38 |
| blatche | I did hateball and it does the same thing | 06:38 |
| hateball | that is strange | 06:38 |
| blatche | Sets it up, then just finishes without doing the whole "download Chrome then extract the libpepflash.so" bit | 06:39 |
| Bashing-om | blatche: 32 bit OS by any chance ? | 06:41 |
| blatche | Yes why? | 06:41 |
| Bashing-om | blatche: Not sure, but google has pulled all 32 bit software . | 06:42 |
| hateball | blatche: what happens if you run "sudo update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree --install" ? | 06:43 |
| blatche | Bashing-om: I see. I do recall seeing something of the sorts. | 06:43 |
| hateball | or sudo update-pepperflashplugin-nonfree --status | 06:43 |
| lotuspsychje | blatche, Bashing-om https://www.reddit.com/r/chrome/comments/48oje6/linux_how_to_fix_failed_to_fetch/ | 06:44 |
| lotuspsychje | maybe this? | 06:44 |
| Bashing-om | blatche: So if peper-flash for google-chrome,. not going to have support . | 06:44 |
| blatche | No output on either command | 06:46 |
| lotuspsychje | blatche: If you are on Linux x32 you will need to uninstall chrome due to no more security updates will be offered. Your distribution may offer chromium-browser. Chromium will be updated by your linux distribution not by Google. | 06:47 |
| lotuspsychje | blatche: from the url above | 06:47 |
| blatche | Yeah I did see that. Currently reading on more news about it | 06:47 |
| blatche | I hope someone could get pepperflash back using the ones from Adobe? | 06:48 |
| hateball | Sounds like a good time to backup data and reinstall 64-bit | 06:48 |
| lotuspsychje | hateball: join #ubuntu+1 plz? got a link for ya | 06:48 |
| hateball | lotuspsychje: you could pm if you like, I dont currently run +1 so not much point being there :) | 06:49 |
| blatche | Having under 4GB of RAM? I don't think that's kinda good of a move... | 06:49 |
| lotuspsychje | ok | 06:49 |
| hateball | blatche: Sure there's a bit of overhead, but the alternative is not having the software you want... | 06:50 |
| blatche | I guess I'll have to make do with the NPAPI Flash available in the repos | 06:50 |

| cfhowlett | what's wrong with vbox? | 07:16 |
| cfhowlett | vbox works on window too, you know ... | 07:16 |
| Mia | some say it's graphicws drivers are crap so yeah | 07:16 |
| Mia | I mean just wanted to ask overall | 07:16 |
| Mia | if there is a better thing I should be using, I was going to switch | 07:16 |
| Mia | that's why I asked | 07:17 |
| DaveWM | Mia: what are you trying to do graphically? I mean I think one is as good as the other | 07:17 |
| Mia | but if it's already THE solution then ok :) probobly I shoudl stay | 07:17 |
| cfhowlett | all virtual machines are going to lack in the graphics ... | 07:17 |
| DaveWM | you won't get native graphics in a VM unless you are using something capable of forwarding your entire GPU to a virtual machine | 07:17 |
| hateball | I'm not sure what "being on windows and testing different distros" has to do with Ubuntu... | 07:17 |
| Mia | it does not have much to do wih ubuntu really, I wanted to ask here because a lot of people are online and it's sort of related | 07:18 |
| DaveWM | different distros = ubuntu + mint + other_ubuntu_derivatives... lol | 07:18 |
| Mia | is it strictly forbidden here to ask general linux-related questions? | 07:18 |
| Mia | DaveWM, correct | 07:18 |

| Mia | lotuspsychje, it's not entirely a windows uestion and frankly that channel never answers properly | 07:19 |

| spreadsheet | so, it seems that you can't easily go from legacy to UEFI | 07:37 |
| cfhowlett | spreadsheet, take it up with #windows | 07:38 |

| jushur | nezZario: should have a habit of cleaning out old packages especially when updating kernel. | 07:53 |
| nezZario | I'm just really concerned that it's going to try to boot a kernel that doesn't exist. For some insane reason I'm also missing /vmlinuz and the other one (init.rd) | 07:54 |
| nezZario | Sorry I'm just typing slow, was trying to find the name of the other link | 07:54 |
| jushur | i do however belive the default partition size for /boot is a bit small on the 16.04 beta. as its fast pacing and one may want to have a few revisions of kernels installed for testing purposes. | 07:54 |
| jushur | nezZario: what release you run? | 07:55 |
| nezZario | apt-get upgrade just got into a cycle where it wouldn't update the kernel because /boot was full, it wouldn't let me autoremove because apt hadn't finished it's last operation (of updating the kernel), so I made a backup of /boot by cp -pR /boot /boot.copy and then manually removed the oldest kernel files I seen in there until it would finish the process. | 07:56 |

| crazyhorse18 | i am unable to connect to a share i have just created in ubuntu 15.04 | 10:06 |
| Dron | Hi All | 10:07 |
| crazyhorse18 | the share is in /mnt/lrghdd/remote-backups with permissions 700 to the user i'm trying to access the share with.. i created the share by right clicking and typing create share | 10:08 |
| Guest43328 | crazyhorse next mound give it a new one Ubuntu 16.04 | 10:08 |
| Guest43328 | Hi Dron | 10:08 |
| crazyhorse18 | Guest43328, why's that they've fixed up some smb stuff? | 10:08 |
| vuurdraak | i have never shared stuff, but what about trying to give even more permissions like 770 or what ever | 10:09 |
| EX-Ploit | how to copy files to android avd and android emulator ? | 10:09 |
| crazyhorse18 | i just can't authenticate against the share | 10:09 |
| Guest43328 | I dont now | 10:09 |
| gregf_ | hello, my machine has/is run/running out of space | 10:10 |
| vuurdraak | this is a share on a local network not ? | 10:10 |
| Dron | Can anyone familiar with systemd clear some moment for me? Can I tune logging to hold logs not for amount of data, but hold records for last N days? Not found anything about this moment. Thanks. | 10:10 |
| vuurdraak | @gregf time to buy a new disk :) ? | 10:10 |
| crazyhorse18 | vuurdraak, local network.. full connectivity, i can ssh / rsync | 10:10 |
| Guest43328 | I dont have any problems with smb | 10:11 |
| vuurdraak | @ crazyhorse18 , yeh like i said i never shared stuff like that in ubuntu, but the only thing i can come up with is setting all permissions on the share wide open, see if it helps, for user & group | 10:11 |
| vuurdraak | as u now only gave permissions to the user i think | 10:12 |
| crazyhorse18 | it's not accepting the username/password | 10:12 |
| crazyhorse18 | but i am able to ssh on | 10:12 |
| vuurdraak | ah o.O | 10:12 |

| Ascavasaion | I have been editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf for ages, and nothing i do makes any difference. It is as if the xorg.conf file is not even being used. | 10:27 |
| Ascavasaion | Any advice please... this 640x480 resolution is killing me. | 10:27 |
| gregf_ | hello, sorry got caught in a call :| | 10:27 |
| gregf_ | ok, i've got this folder : ~/.Private/ <== which is taking 34 gigs of space | 10:28 |
| gregf_ | i'm not sure if i;ve even created it, but is this specific to ubuntu please? | 10:28 |
| nullius | i think thats a the folder for encrypted stuff | 10:28 |
| gregf_ | nullius: yes. | 10:29 |
| gregf_ | its got files of the type : ECRYPTFS_FNEK_ENCRYPTED.FWYhddW9eP1.g-TTjO5QCKwgR9x5BHuamSwoSr4kk6n2v9LqoxH5pHeA0k-- | 10:29 |
| gregf_ | i've managed to delete some of those 'many' files | 10:30 |
| cfhowlett | bad idea ... | 10:30 |
| gregf_ | nullius: please would you know how that folder gets created? | 10:30 |
| gregf_ | cfhowlett: is is? | 10:30 |
| gregf_ | s/is$/it/ | 10:30 |
| cfhowlett | greg__, man ecryptfs for the details | 10:30 |
| nullius | if ubuntu automagically set up that, deleting your encrypted files means you might not get them back, shouldve decrypted first | 10:31 |
| gregf_ | ok, but i dont want my disk to be encrypted | 10:31 |
| cfhowlett | and yet it is ... | 10:31 |
| gregf_ | oh , let me read the man page for it | 10:31 |
| gregf_ | cfhowlett: when installing ubuntu, i think it asked me about encryption *faintly remembers* | 10:32 |
| gregf_ | /home/gregf/.Private 98256516 93081308 160988 100% /home/gregf | 10:32 |

| === Mathisen is now known as Mathisen_ | ||
| gregf_ | i've removed some huge file and yet there is no space: *thats the output for df -k* | 10:33 |
| cfhowlett | you can remove encryption. the stuff inside the encrypted folder may/may not be recoverable as you have delted some | 10:33 |
| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ, A very old NVidia Riva TNT2 | 10:33 |
| sudeep | #kannel | 10:33 |
| gregf_ | cfhowlett: i've deleted 3 files i think | 10:33 |
| cfhowlett | my advice: back up essential data, remove the encryption, go forth and sin no more. | 10:34 |
| ABC-XYZ | Ascavasion: that's approximately the oldest card supported by nouveau it seems: https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/CodeNames/ I guess you are running nouveau? | 10:35 |
| crazyhorse18 | cfhowlett, i've been wondering about that.. if you get partial corruption on data.. can you still decrypt the volume? | 10:36 |
| crazyhorse18 | and get anything that wasn't directly corrupted | 10:36 |
| cfhowlett | crazyhorse18, so far as I know, removing those files frags the rest of recovery | 10:36 |
| cfhowlett | crazyhorse18, i.e. it's all or nothing | 10:37 |
| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ, I think so... i did a sudo apt-get install nouveau-firmware | 10:37 |
| crazyhorse18 | cfhowlett, hang on. so if it gets a little bit corrupted.. your entire volume has gone? | 10:37 |
| crazyhorse18 | :-/ | 10:37 |
| gregf_ | cfhowlett: thanks. let me try that | 10:37 |
| jushur | well its doable, actually. but requires expert knowledge of the encryption used. and that the parts containing the initial encryption keys are still there. | 10:38 |
| cfhowlett | crazyhorse18, again, so for as *I* know --- limited on my best dayu | 10:38 |
| ABC-XYZ | Ascavasaion: I wonder if you didn't end up running VESA or something.. you have the nouveau module in lsmod? What does your /var/log/Xorg.0.log say? | 10:38 |

| jushur | Ascavasaion: looks like you have disabled KMS somehow. check your grub boot cmds so it does not have "nomodeset" | 10:51 |

| jushur | Ascavasaion: have you been trying to get nvidia driver to work with your setup? | 10:53 |
| ABC-XYZ | yeah, kms seems disabled.. what does your /proc/cmdline say? | 10:53 |
| ABC-XYZ | changed anything there? | 10:53 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: in a terminal do cat "/proc/cmdline" | 10:54 |
| jushur | without the "" :) | 10:54 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, In grub.cfg I found "linux/boot/vmlinuz-4.2.0-30-generic root=UUID=1f325f14-88bb-4ab0-a27f-46511438da62 ro recovery nomodeset" | 10:54 |

| jushur | Ascavasaion: you are running in rescue mode now or? | 10:55 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, Not as far as I know | 10:55 |
| ABC-XYZ | you should try and remove nomodeset from /etc/default/grub in the line that reads GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT and then run update-grub i think | 10:55 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: you need to know what the current boot is, do the "cat /proc/cmdline" in a terminal. | 10:56 |

| ahmet | thanks | 10:59 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, No idea | 11:00 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: i asked before if you tried to use the "nvidia" driver, as i know it tries to disable the KMS parts in kernel modules. | 11:00 |
| ABC-XYZ | you don't happen to have /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf? | 11:01 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, I did try the nvidia driver fromnvidia website, but it never installed | 11:01 |
| ABC-XYZ | If you have that file, that's probably blacklisting the nouveau module | 11:01 |
| ABC-XYZ | lsmod|grep nouveau | 11:01 |
| ABC-XYZ | returns nothing? | 11:02 |
| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ, No file like that... or with "nvidia" in its name | 11:02 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: rmmod nouveau | 11:02 |

| jushur | you have a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ blacklist-nouveau.conf or so? | 11:03 |

| hacked311 | hello guys | 11:08 |
| ABC-XYZ | grep 'nouveau\|nvidia' /etc/modprobe.d/* anything? | 11:08 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, You menioned KMD... what is DKMS? that is there | 11:09 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, http://paste.ubuntu.com/15340687/ | 11:09 |
| ABC-XYZ | DKMS dynamically recompiles out of tree kernel modules when installing a new kernel.. (such as the proprietary nvidia module) | 11:10 |
| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ, So not the same thing I presume hehe | 11:10 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: maybe a reinstallation of the kernel will fix it. thinking what ever you did removed the proper support for the KMS (modesetting) and nouveau modules. | 11:14 |
| ABC-XYZ | Ascavasaion : if you try that grep command, you can ensure the nvidia installer has not put a blacklist on nouveau in any file. You don't happen to have any nvidia module loaded? lsmod|grep nvidia ? | 11:14 |
| Ascavasaion | joel@garage:~$ lsmod|grep nvidia gives nothing..just back tothe prompt | 11:15 |
| ABC-XYZ | grep 'nouveau\|nvidia' /etc/modprobe.d/* ? | 11:16 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, How do I reinstall the kernel? | 11:16 |
| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ, I think that found what you were looking for... | 11:17 |
| Ascavasaion | joel@garage:~$ grep 'nouveau\|nvidia' /etc/modprobe.d/* | 11:17 |
| Ascavasaion | /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer.conf:blacklist nvidiafb | 11:17 |
| ABC-XYZ | Hmm, that is actually not the one; nvidiafb actually conflicts with nouveau, so it should be blacklisted | 11:17 |
| Ascavasaion | :( | 11:18 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: all ppl have that by default. its correct. | 11:18 |
| Triffid_Hunter | nvidiafb conflicts with everything, I use vesa + v86d for fb on nvidia | 11:18 |
| Ascavasaion | What is fb? | 11:19 |
| ABC-XYZ | the framebuffer, which enables fancy console graphics | 11:19 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: look so you have /lib/modules/YOURKERNEL/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau.ko , use the kernel you have loaded in the YOURKERNEL part. | 11:19 |
| Triffid_Hunter | Ascavasaion: it lets you have high res text consoles with graphics, before X starts up and does proper graphical stuff | 11:19 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, Yes, that nouveau.ko file is at that location. | 11:21 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: what exactly do you have in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ dir? and xorg.conf | 11:22 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: you said you edit the xorg.conf. where did you do this? | 11:23 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, There is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ directory | 11:24 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: well yes, its not by default. this is why i asked where you edit your xorg.conf | 11:25 |
| Ascavasaion | xorg.conf is at /etc/X11/ | 11:26 |
| Ascavasaion | http://paste.ubuntu.com/15340740/ | 11:26 |
| ABC-XYZ | According to his xorg.log the X nouveau driver did try to load but failed to find KMS; so perhaps the problem lies with the nouveau kernel module failing to load? Perhaps dmesg|grep 'nouveau\|nvidia' would be interesting | 11:26 |
| Ascavasaion | dmesg|grep 'nouveau\|nvidia' goes straight back to prompt | 11:27 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: just rename that file to something like xorg.conf_disabled , and then relaunch X | 11:29 |
| Ascavasaion | dmesg|grep 'vesa' gives http://paste.ubuntu.com/15340755/ | 11:30 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: dmesg | grep modeset | 11:30 |
| Ascavasaion | dmesg | grep modeset goes straight to prompt. | 11:31 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: it should say 2 lines, loaded, and enabled. basicly | 11:32 |
| jushur | loaded/initializing | 11:32 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, What should have those two lines loaded and enabled? | 11:32 |
| jushur | the dmesg|grep modeset , should produce 2 lines. | 11:34 |
| Ascavasaion | It gives nothing. | 11:34 |
| Ascavasaion | http://paste.ubuntu.com/15340755/ | 11:35 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: pastebin the dkms.conf file. | 11:35 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, where is that file? | 11:36 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: in your /etc/modeprobe.d/ dir | 11:37 |

| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ, The motherboard has a built in graphics card... an SiS. i nsee near the bottom of the lsmd it sows the sisagp. idisabled it in CMOS | 11:54 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: when you look at the sections, notice most of them specify what driver/moduel is in use. but agp is actually needed for your agp nvidia card. | 11:58 |
| ABC-XYZ | that is .. interesting.. but I wouldn't know whether that would interfere with the nouveau driver being able to load. modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nouveau': No such device << being the main problem I think | 11:59 |
| jushur | Ascavasaion: and its not loaded. maybe you need to have the integrated card enabled anyhow? | 11:59 |
| Ascavasaion | jushur, Okay, let me try with onboard aGP | 11:59 |
| jushur | ABC-XYZ: i think its because the agp port has no driver? | 11:59 |

| GnomeKris | so I have a Radeon R9 380 graphics card that over heats and completely powers off my computer when I play Rust. But any other game I have doesn't effect the performance. Is there something I'm doing wrong here? | 12:19 |
| GnomeKris | running ubuntu 14.04 btw. Playing games only through steam | 12:20 |
| matthewkim | did you install graphic ca | 12:21 |
| matthewkim | rd driver | 12:21 |
| rexwin_ | I am getting this when trying to use ssmtp to send emails to gmail using gmail.............. 534 5.7.14 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/78754 h85sm5308902pfj.52 - gsmtp ssmtp: Authorization failed (534 5.7.14 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/78754 | 12:21 |
| rexwin_ | I have turned off access for less secure apps | 12:22 |
| GnomeKris | matthewkim, I used the "additional drivers" installation | 12:22 |
| GnomeKris | I have the disk to install drivers, but it's set up to install in windows... | 12:23 |
| GnomeKris | Also, I'm using the proprietary updated drivers, not the open source. Steam won't load any games at all using the open source driver | 12:25 |
| matthewkim | GnomeKris: then, blow up dust on your graphic card. it will work | 12:25 |
| GnomeKris | It's a brand new build. | 12:25 |
| GnomeKris | there better not be any dust | 12:25 |
| matthewkim | GnomeKris: okay, sorry | 12:25 |
| GnomeKris | no biggie | 12:25 |
| GnomeKris | I've googled all I care to at this point and I don't know why that particular game is causing it to over heat and shut down my entire pc... | 12:26 |
| GnomeKris | I can't even turn it back on without disconnecting the power first | 12:26 |
| GnomeKris | maybe amd has a channel | 12:27 |
| ABC-XYZ | GnomeKris: fglrx drivers have always been pretty buggy. The open source drivers (amdgpu/radeonsi) seem to be making a lot of progress lately. | 12:27 |
| hateball | GnomeKris: There is also the matter of Rust support on Linux in general... | 12:28 |
| ABC-XYZ | many cards even have the open source driver outperforming the fglrx driver, but apparently the R9 380 isn't well supported yet | 12:29 |
| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ and jushur I am back... made absolutely no difference. | 12:29 |
| jushur | GnomeKris: there is a bug with the amd cards and their drivers, affecting both windows and linux. basicly the manufacturer set the speeds of fans defaults to low. and you need to manualy turn hte speed up. atleast 50%+ | 12:29 |
| GnomeKris | ABC-XYZ: I read up on that yesterday, and I agree that the open source seem to be making a lot of progress, but the open source drivers won't even let steam load any games at all | 12:29 |
| ABC-XYZ | but tbh fglrx seems to be going EOL, and i'd expect alot of progress in amdgpu | 12:29 |
| GnomeKris | I've also read where people have the same problem with this card in windows... | 12:29 |
| ABC-XYZ | Ascavasion: i wonder if you wouldn't happen to have any blacklist in your initramfs | 12:29 |
| GnomeKris | must be something specific to the game. | 12:30 |
| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ, Where is that? | 12:31 |
| ABC-XYZ | Ascavasaion: lsinitramfs /boot/initrd*|grep 'nvidia\|nouveau' | 12:31 |
| jushur | GnomeKris: what card you have? lspci -vnn , and pastebin the output. of the section with the card. | 12:32 |

| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ, Haver not tried. | 12:40 |
| logan__ | hi ! | 12:40 |
| cfhowlett | rigel, best practice: keep the most recent kernel plus the next older for backup | 12:40 |
| Mr_Cyclops | thats just right cfhowlett | 12:40 |
| rigel_ | okay, how do i do that? | 12:40 |
| ABC-XYZ | Ascavasaion: trying that would pretty much rule out interference of any manually installed nvidia driver i think | 12:40 |
| ABC-XYZ | Ascavasion: but perhaps you might have some luck at #nouveau (might take some time though) (the nouveau driver is the only one that's going to support your card with recent kernels, i think) | 12:41 |
| logan__ | exit | 12:41 |
| cfhowlett | rigel, delete all except the most recent two | 12:41 |
| ABC-XYZ | Ascavasion the official nvidia driver doesn't support your card since version 74.xx | 12:41 |
| rigel_ | okay | 12:41 |
| rigel_ | thanks for your help | 12:41 |
| cfhowlett | happy2help! rigel | 12:42 |
| Ascavasaion | ABC-XYZ, I did a sudo apt-get purge nvidia-* earlier and the resolution was perfect at 1024x768 but the moment I rebooted it went back to the 640x468. So the computer can definitely work at that rewsolution with this installation. Something is hindering it... beginnning to think it is me. | 12:43 |

| R13ose | BluesKaj: trying to figure out an issue, and move forward | 13:39 |
| BluesKaj | R13ose, and what issue is that? | 13:40 |
| ouroumov_ | jp99, yes. For a quick discovery of your Linux hosts try sudo nmap -sP -T5 192.168.1.0/24 (note that won't scan your 192.168.2.0 network) | 13:40 |
| R13ose | BluesKaj: How come xfce4 notifications don't do anything when I click show? | 13:40 |
| ouroumov_ | jp99, the "T5" flag is "insane speed setting", which is acceptable since it's your own net. | 13:41 |
| BluesKaj | R13ose, sorry never used xfce, dunno much about it. | 13:42 |
| R13ose | BluesKaj: thanks. I am asking in the #xubuntu room | 13:42 |

| k1l | smoker05: you can use the online upgrades without formating. but for 14.04 to 15.10 you need to go to 14.10 first, then to 15.04 and then to 15.10 (and till july you need to upgrade to 16.04). | 13:55 |

| NickMessing | k1l: how can I "give" this device back to NetworkManager? | 14:40 |
| k1l | skinux: thats a bit late. isnt it? the issue is, that 14.10 and 15.04 are dead already. so its going to be 3 upgrades and manual work with sources to get to 15.10. | 14:40 |
| k1l | skinux: if you just want the 15.10 kernel and xorg you can use the hwe | 14:41 |
| k1l | !hwe | skinux | 14:41 |
| ubottu | skinux: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 14:41 |

| skinux | Using old-releases repo (deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ CODENAME main restricted universe multiverse) CODENAME should be the release I'm using or the one I want to upgrade to? | 14:44 |
| k1l | NickMessing: look into the /etc/network/interfaces what is using that card | 14:44 |
| k1l | skinux: the current onw | 14:45 |
| k1l | *one | 14:45 |
| skinux | And it'll upgrade to the next old-release? | 14:45 |
| k1l | skinux: yes. that is the path you want to go | 14:45 |
| Axy | I couldn't find any specific installation guides about how to install ubuntu on a macbook pro 5.5 | 14:45 |
| skinux | So the old-release repo for Trusty actually has packages for the next version? | 14:46 |
| NickMessing | k1l: looks like nothing https://gist.github.com/anonymous/d95526b8b5f58f3a04a8 | 14:46 |
| k1l | NickMessing: well, i dont know what changes create_ap did. look that up and undo that | 14:47 |
| NickMessing | k1l: here is NetworkManager.conf, is here something wrong https://gist.github.com/anonymous/3f92b79715fbb5ed8625 | 14:47 |
| NickMessing | ? | 14:47 |
| k1l | skinux: no, the upgrader changes the release itself and then looks up the next release. which is dead in your case. so it needs that repos. | 14:48 |
| skinux | So, use deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main restricted universe multiverse to repos to upgrade to the version AFTER Trusty? | 14:49 |
| k1l | skinux: upgrading now from a LTS to the 15.10 is just a broken concept. why not stay on the LTS until july if you were on the LTS now for nearly 2 years. | 14:49 |
| skinux | Okay, then, I replace sources.list with those repos or just add them to it? | 14:49 |
| k1l | skinux: read that wiki page. i got clear instructions | 14:49 |
| skinux | I'm been using Windows for quite a while. Only a week or two ago was able to get Linux installed again. | 14:50 |

| boriseto | I've read an article that Canonical (Ubuntu) is deprecating fglrx from 16.04 forward. What does that mean for the users with 2 graphic cards? | 15:05 |
| jushur | boriseto: im asuming you will end up using the amdgpu driver instead? | 15:06 |
| boriseto | jushur, I know that, but when I would like to use the power saving features (using the intel gpu for example) instead? Atm there is an option in catalyst to switch cards, but as I know there isn't such thing in the open-source driver | 15:07 |
| jushur | boriseto: you have used the amdgpu driver? or are you talking about "radeon" driver? | 15:08 |

| dreamcat4 | hi. i'm trying to setup a different default route on startup, wily 15.10 | 15:24 |
| dreamcat4 | for a network bridge --> eth0 | 15:24 |
| dreamcat4 | after systemd was introduced, is 15.10 sitll using the same /etc/network/interfaces file as before ? | 15:25 |
| catphish | i have a message in my MOTD "/dev/md1 will be checked for errors at next reboot" - how is this determination made? i just fsck'd the disk and re-ran "/usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-fsck-at-reboot" and it still says it will be checked | 15:25 |
| dreamcat4 | because i put things in there and it doesnt seem to have any effect | 15:25 |

| vooze | dreamcat4: i'm 99% sure it does yes. | 15:28 |
| catphish | oh, running "run-parts /etc/update-motd.d/" got rid of it :) | 15:28 |
| dreamcat4 | thanks vooze | 15:29 |
| dreamcat4 | vooze: so whats the cmd to restart networking now? still same as before? | 15:29 |
| dreamcat4 | vooze: is it /etc/init.d/networking restart ? | 15:30 |
| vooze | dreamcat4: i'm not sure the "new" command, but sudo service networking still seems to work. | 15:30 |
| akik | dreamcat4: for network-manager, nmcli | 15:34 |
| akik | dreamcat4: "nmcli nm enable false" shuts down the interfaces | 15:36 |

| Guest61542 | how do you change your user with nickserv? I identified but it didn't take on this channel | 16:09 |
| nicomachus | Guest61542: ask the folks at #freenode | 16:09 |
| nicomachus | but it's '/nick newnick' | 16:09 |
| Guest61542 | 16:10 | |
| nicomachus | nils_: 'sudo lshw' will provide it. | 16:10 |
| k1l | smoker05: see the first "featured answer" under this article: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/03/fix-failed-to-fetch-google-chrome-apt-error-ubuntu | 16:10 |
| nils_ | nicomachus, yeah well I could also use udevadm, i'd rather have a file. | 16:10 |
| nicomachus | nils_: ok... then pipe the output to a file. | 16:11 |
| nicomachus | k1l: that's only a temporary fix. | 16:11 |
| k1l | nicomachus: no. | 16:11 |
| nicomachus | k1l: it will reset at 24 hours or so. There's a script in /opt/ somewhere that has to be changed as well, or it will just overwrite the sources.list entry | 16:11 |
| mikey1 | 16:12 | |
| nicomachus | ohh, the "featured comment" does have it. sorry. ignore me. | 16:12 |
| k1l | nicomachus: that comment got a sed command for opt too | 16:12 |
| nils_ | nicomachus: and it comes with a load of superfluous output, I'd rather not execute a command at all. | 16:12 |
| nicomachus | nils_: then narrow it with -C disk. so you have ' sudo lshw -C disk ' | 16:13 |
| nils_ | nicomachus, naah, I'll have to stick with udevadm. Serial is nowhere to be found in /sys/ | 16:15 |
| vooze | dreamcat4: Did you get it to work? I just remembered it could be cause eth0 changed name. Look at "sudo lshw -class network" and look for Logical name, and replace that with eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces. | 16:15 |
| nicomachus | nils_: ok then. I provided a solution that works... but you're free to ignore it. | 16:16 |
| nils_ | nicomachus, yeah, I just need this for some documentation so the simpler the better. However, I wonder if lshw will still show that detail for a broken disk | 16:17 |
| nicomachus | nils_: as long as it can detect the hardware, I imagine it would show it. | 16:17 |

| chotaz`w | Not a spin off, but a specific flavour, rather. | 16:20 |
| smoker05 | k1l, is that because of chrome ? | 16:20 |

| bazhang | !fsck | Silenced | 17:27 |
| ubottu | Silenced: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 17:27 |

| varaindemian | will it have it transparent or not? | 17:28 |

| Ursula | Hi. I just bought a new laptop (that is empty) and it kinda needs a OS on it as soon as possible. Would it be unwise/unsafe to install 16.04 now? Or is it stable for daily use? | 17:32 |
| bazhang | join the channel #ubuntu+1 varaindemian to ask about the next release | 17:32 |
| karrot | reisio, logging out first doesn't seem to close the programs cleanly. Firefox gives me the "well this is embarassing..." screen because it's not really quit... it seems to be shutdown in the same manner as shutdown -h now | 17:33 |
| pseudonymous | Ursula: colleague of mine used 15.10 about a month before its release for exactly that reason. Did we see a bug or two? Yea, probably. Was it usable on a daily basis ? Yes. | 17:33 |
| Ursula | pseudonymous: Those two bugs, were they scary? | 17:33 |
| reisio | karrot: does Mac OS restore all the apps? | 17:33 |
| pseudonymous | Ursula: he used it as a workpc-install, didn't stop him from working. I'd say it's so insignificant that I forget what things were | 17:34 |

| fgj6 | and do backups. You don't want a filesystem bug to corrupt your only copy of the data | 17:35 |
| karrot | reisio, the problem is I use a program called Anki, and when it quits it needs to sync, so if it's open and then I hit the power button to shutdown, it just kills the program and the program doesn't get the chacne to do a quick sync... | 17:36 |
| reisio | karrot: k, you can probably increase the time allowed waiting for an app to sigterm before it's sigkill'd | 17:36 |
| gulli | hi | 17:38 |
| karrot | reisio, i shall look into that, thanks | 17:38 |

| karrot | reisio, 15.10 | 17:40 |

| reisio | karrot: what systemd version do you have? | 17:44 |
| === sean is now known as Guest8334 | ||
| karrot | reisio, I don't know what that is, or how to check for it | 17:45 |
| krobzaur | Hello all. If I'm adding a new entry in my fstab file for a partition to store my backups, what are the most prudent mount options to set? Am I safe with just the defaults? | 17:45 |
| karrot | reisio, I basically want ubuntu to ctrl+q all the programs, wait until they are closed, then shutdown -h now | 17:45 |
| karrot | reisio, if there is some command to ctrl+q all the programs... that'd work for me | 17:46 |
| reisio | karrot: dpkg -l | grep -i systemd, maybe | 17:46 |
| karrot | reisio, all running programs I should say | 17:46 |
| === dummy is now known as craptalk | ||
| reisio | karrot: yeah you can run like... | 17:46 |
| reisio | kill -SIGTERM -1 to ask every single process to stop nicely | 17:46 |
| karrot | reisio, i'm going to try, and see how it goes, thus leaving this channel | 17:47 |
| reisio | and then kill -SIGKILL -1 after a pause to kill them meanly | 17:47 |
| reisio | I think it's just a systemd bug, though | 17:47 |
| reisio | 'shutdown' et al. is supposed to do this already | 17:47 |
| reisio | was just reading how they fouled it up in systemd, but /supposedly/ have fixed it for a particular version already | 17:47 |
| karrot | reisio, that shutdown the programs too... harshly | 17:48 |
| reisio | karrot: would probably be better to programmatically kill -SIGTERM only the specific top level desktop apps you're running | 17:48 |
| === dummy is now known as Guest61991 | ||
| karrot | reisio, I feel like kill -1 is still more... harsh than ctrl+q | 17:49 |
| === Guest61991 is now known as craptalk | ||
| reisio | you mean kill -SIGTERM ? | 17:49 |
| reisio | -1 is just the special value for 'all proceses' | 17:50 |
| karrot | reisio, ahh sorry | 17:50 |
| reisio | try kill -SIGTERM $(pgrep -x firefox), for eaxmple | 17:50 |
| karrot | reisio, SIGTERM is too strong I guess | 17:50 |
| reisio | example* | 17:50 |
| reisio | how does it manifest as too strong? | 17:50 |
| karrot | reisio, I have a program quits in this manner. I press ctrl-q, it syncs, then it shuts down | 17:52 |
| === dummy_ is now known as craptalk | ||
| karrot | reisio, when I use SIGTERM it just kills it, no sync | 17:52 |
| reisio | karrot: so anki alone is the problem? | 17:52 |
| reisio | sounds like it's not coded... right :D | 17:53 |
| karrot | reisio, I want to do exactly the ctrl+q command. I think other people experience this with libreoffice. They kill that with SIGTERM and then they have a unsaved work that can only sometimes be fully recovered. | 17:53 |
| karrot | reisio, I'm actively googling | 17:53 |
| karrot | reisio, well, anki, firefox, and chromium | 17:53 |
| reisio | okay, well | 17:53 |
| reisio | the way that /should be/ extremely unnecessary, but that would achieve what you want would be... | 17:53 |
| karrot | reisio, chromium also tells me it wasn't shutdown properly, would I like to restore the previous windows | 17:53 |
| reisio | I'm sure you can take a list of processes from 'ps', and use 'wmctrl' to focus on each, then 'xdotool' to send CTRL+q to each :p | 17:54 |
| karrot | reisio, that's something | 17:54 |
| reisio | and I'm sure you could even tie it into the ordinary init system shutdown routine, if you wanted | 17:54 |
| karrot | reisio, thank you for giving me something to work with! | 17:55 |
| karrot | reisio, i'm gonna keep trying | 17:55 |
| reisio | actually you can probably get the processes directly from wmctrl | 17:56 |
| reisio | since it's only the processes running in an actual window you are probably concerned with | 17:56 |
| reisio | and you don't need the pid anyway, just the window id | 17:57 |

But, after running "sudo tune2fs -U random /dev/sda7", | 19:25 |
| RoadRunner | get "The UUID may only be changed when the filesystem is unmounted." Is there a way around this, other than changing UUID of the unmounted sda5 (which I would rather keep constant)? | 19:25 |

| wafflejock | RoadRunner: there are on screen prompts but you might miss them with a short timeout on grub | 19:32 |
| nealshire | are there any dynamic dns clients people would recommend for ubuntu? must be compatible with namecheap | 19:33 |
| RoadRunner | wafflejock: so editing puts you into grub's config file and what editor do you edit it with at that point? | 19:33 |
| wafflejock | RoadRunner: honestly not sure it's just a basic text editor like pico or nano | 19:33 |
| wafflejock | the line you want to change based on what EriC^^ said had to do with the targeted partition but I just caught the tail of the conversation and EriC^^ knows boot stuff better anyhow :) | 19:34 |
| RoadRunner | wafflejock: how would you edit grub's menu items to have menu names of booting partitions renamed permanently? | 19:35 |
| wafflejock | RoadRunner: believe you just want to edit /etc/default/grub and then run update-grub to make permanent changes to the grub.cfg that grub2 uses https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 19:37 |
| wafflejock | RoadRunner: nice to do it temporarily in the boot menu though so you don't end up in a worse situation since it reverts on next boot | 19:37 |
| RoadRunner | I mean after I implement the changes, I'll have 2 Ubuntu partitions that I would like to diferentiate between | 19:38 |
| EriC^^ | RoadRunner: aren't you going to change the uuid with tune2fs ? | 19:38 |
| RoadRunner | EriC^^: yes | 19:38 |
| EriC^^ | oh you mean the naming in the menu entry? it'd be easier to memorize which is which honestly | 19:39 |
| EriC^^ | or you'd have to cancel one and make a custom entry in 40_custom for it with a different name | 19:39 |
| EriC^^ | in /etc/grub.d/40_custom , basically you just copy and paste the entry there and update-grub | 19:40 |
| EriC^^ | ( from /etc/grub/grub.cfg ) | 19:41 |
| EriC^^ | */boot/grub/grub.cfg | 19:41 |
| RoadRunner | that doesn't sound too bad, or am I missing something? | 19:41 |
| EriC^^ | well it won't update automatically, so if you get new kernels you'd have to update it manually | 19:42 |
| RoadRunner | if its just editing the files you mentioned above (mostly by pasting), I think its not too bad | 19:43 |
| wafflejock | yah seems like updating that on every kernel update might get tedious though | 19:43 |
| EriC^^ | yeah, but every time you update your kernel, you have to edit it and put the new ...hmm | 19:44 |
| wafflejock | script it I suppose it wouldn't be so bad but not sure if you'd still have to get in there manually or if you could automate it totally | 19:44 |
| EriC^^ | you could put linux /vmlinuz and initrd /initrd.img ( use the symlinks ) | 19:44 |
| EriC^^ | those should point to the newest kernel | 19:44 |
| RoadRunner | how often are kernels updated? | 19:45 |
| RoadRunner | on average... | 19:45 |
| EriC^^ | once every 1-2weeks maybe? | 19:46 |
| wafflejock | EriC^^: TIL thanks good to know | 19:46 |
| k1l | RoadRunner: if there are issues like security issues or bugs. like every 2 weeks. | 19:46 |
| RoadRunner | then doing it manually every time is silly... | 19:46 |
| EriC^^ | wafflejock: what's TIL ? | 19:47 |
| RoadRunner | sorry, back in 15 min | 19:47 |
| wafflejock | oh sorry today I learned... think it's a reddit acronym or something | 19:47 |
| EriC^^ | oh ok :D | 19:47 |
| ToBeCloud | EriC^^: very useful: urbandictionary.com :) | 19:51 |
| EriC^^ | yup :) | 19:52 |

| chump | Hi | 19:58 |
| wafflejock | hi chump | 19:58 |
| chump | I have an issue maybe someone can help with. | 19:58 |
| wafflejock | chump: sure what's the issue try to explain what you're trying to do what you've done and where you're at so we have an idea of what the issue may be (release info helps too lsb_release -a at the terminal) | 19:59 |
| chump | I have a tower recently built to run linux with amd apu with radeon r7 a8 7600, plus a large unknown graphics card radeon | 20:00 |
| chump | I am using ubuntu 15 the latest | 20:00 |
| chump | and I do not quite know how to install firmware for this | 20:01 |
| bekks | chump: So you are using 15.10 and need to find out which graphic card you have? | 20:01 |
| floka | when program is placed in the background does it still running? | 20:01 |
| bekks | And the card needs a driver, no firmware. | 20:01 |
| floka | I see on the prompt it says stopped | 20:01 |
| EriC^^ | floka: yeah | 20:01 |
| chump | well I would guess the mobo would work better | 20:01 |
| bekks | chump: With what? | 20:01 |
| EriC^^ | floka: how'd you put it into the background? | 20:01 |
| EriC^^ | ctrl+z just suspends it | 20:02 |
| bobby_ | does anyone here have any software repository sites I can include for the Ubuntu Software Center, I accidentally deleted them all... | 20:02 |
| floka | ctrl+z | 20:02 |
| chump | but , amd site lists firmware for the a8, for ubuntu 14.04, not fifteen | 20:02 |
| EriC^^ | floka: you need to type bg after that | 20:02 |
| floka | after I 've pressed ctrl+z? | 20:02 |
| chump | I guess you are saying not to worry | 20:02 |
| chump | synaptics lists that ther should be two pieces of properitary software | 20:02 |
| EriC^^ | floka: yeah | 20:03 |
| floka | ok | 20:03 |
| garro | Hi! I have a problem with the manual configuring and installing of a piece of software. When I run configure it says "checking for g_signal_emit in -lgtk-x11-2.0... no" and returns a series of warnigs saying I'll not have a GUI... Thank you for the help! | 20:03 |
| EriC^^ | floka: or you can type <program> & | 20:03 |
| EriC^^ | to background it straight away | 20:03 |
| floka | ok I will try | 20:03 |
| bekks | chump: Forget the AMD site, and use the drivers from "Additional drivers". | 20:03 |
| virgil_io | /msg nickserv register Xlaq123! virgilio.schievenini.stefanoni@gmail.com | 20:03 |
| chump | is that additional drivers from the synaptics | 20:04 |
| virgil_io | woops | 20:04 |
| virgil_io | /msg nickserv register ZvRag123! virgilio.schievenini.stefanoni@gmail.com | 20:05 |
| EriC^^ | *facepalm* | 20:05 |
| wafflejock | garro: looks like you need this maybe http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libgtk2.0-dev&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all | 20:05 |
| virgil_io | I don't get this. | 20:05 |

| wafflejock | garro: https://github.com/polachok/gtk-vikb/issues/2 | 20:05 |
| virgil_io | lol | 20:05 |
| virgil_io | ok. | 20:05 |
| stormmore | maybe a crazy question of the day... is there an easy to remove all packages that are not required for a basic ssh server? | 20:06 |
| garro | wafflejock: I got it | 20:06 |
| wafflejock | garro: you mean you already had it and still have that error? | 20:06 |
| garro | wafflejock: yes | 20:07 |
| garro | wafflejock: also set $usegtk to 1 | 20:07 |
| virgil_io | thanks EriC^^ | 20:08 |
| EriC^^ | no problem | 20:08 |
| wafflejock | garro: wonder if maybe the thing you're trying to build needs the i386 version of the package instead of x64 or something, not sure though what're you trying to manually configure and build if I may ask? | 20:09 |
| garro | wafflejock:Maybe. I'm trying to install i8086emu | 20:10 |
| Welastevil | hi guis! | 20:14 |
| wafflejock | garro: yeah not sure can try the apt-get with package:i386 to get the x86 versions and see if that works, could be related seeing as how it's an emulator for 8086 procs but not sure what to check out if that doesn't do it for ya, know you can ldd on a file to see shared libs but not sure with the source where exactly to look | 20:14 |
| reisio | hai guy | 20:14 |
| Welastevil | Im trying to install ubunto from an USB... but the thing is: there is no option in the BIOS for USB | 20:14 |
| bekks | Welastevil: then you cant boot from USB. | 20:15 |
| Welastevil | there is just floppy, hard drive and optical drivwe | 20:15 |
| bekks | Welastevil: Those are your installation options then. | 20:15 |
| Welastevil | I see | 20:15 |
| reisio | Welastevil: try the boot menu, tap f12/esc/del repeatedly during bootup | 20:15 |
| Welastevil | if the disk imnage is already in my HD...it is prossible to install from there? | 20:16 |
| reisio | Welastevil: yeah, technically | 20:16 |
| garro | wafflejock: I undersand! Thank you anyway. | 20:16 |
| wafflejock | Welastevil: would go with reisio on this try the boot menu if possible | 20:17 |
| Welastevil | so how to install it from my HD? | 20:17 |
| wafflejock | Welastevil: getting to the moon is also possible :) "we do these things not because they are easy but because they are hard" | 20:17 |
| Welastevil | I tryed the boot menu, and no option for USB | 20:17 |
| reisio | well, we do them because we think soviet russia will kill us for no particular reason :p | 20:17 |
| Welastevil | yes! agree waffejock))) | 20:18 |
| Welastevil | hahahaha | 20:18 |
| popey | Welastevil: how old is this computer? | 20:18 |
| wafflejock | hehe | 20:18 |
| reisio | Welastevil: no CD handy? | 20:18 |
| Welastevil | Im living in Russia by the way | 20:18 |
| Welastevil | nope | 20:18 |
| popey | Welastevil: it sounds like something which probably wouldn't run Ubuntu anyway. | 20:18 |
| Welastevil | my CD drive doesnt work | 20:18 |
| reisio | I hear the women are female | 20:18 |
| popey | If it's so old it won't boot off USB, it probably isn't powerful enough | 20:18 |
| Welastevil | yeah... it is | 20:19 |
| reisio | Welastevil: you can boot from the image already on the disk, but it's not fun | 20:19 |
| Welastevil | I already have ubuntu installed...I wanted to reinstalll\ | 20:19 |
| Welastevil | there is no way to "rewset" it as in a mac I think/... | 20:19 |
| ubuntu_nooob | i cant install flash on ubuntu mate 15.10... i have searched all over internet but nothing seems to help... I see it installed but Opera and Firefox keeps ignoring it | 20:19 |
| ubuntu_nooob | any idea? | 20:20 |
| bekks | !flash | ubuntu_nooob | 20:20 |
| ubottu | ubuntu_nooob: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 20:20 |
| Welastevil | In my mac, I can just use the RESET option, and it reinstall itself | 20:20 |
| gQuigs | does anyone have video chats working in empathy on 16.04? | 20:20 |
| RoadRunner | EriC^^: btw, ctrl+x saves the changes (in grub) or starts the reboot? | 20:20 |
| EriC^^ | RoadRunner: it boots the menu | 20:21 |
| ubuntu_nooob | tnx bekks and ubottu | 20:21 |
| ubuntu_nooob | let me try and i will inform you about the result | 20:21 |
| RoadRunner | EriC^^: could you explain a little more: "you could put linux /vmlinuz and initrd /initrd.img ( use the symlinks )" | 20:21 |
| EriC^^ | RoadRunner: in the lines that say linux /boot/vmlinuz-3..... you could put linux /vmlinuz instead | 20:22 |
| Rave1 | Welastevil, plop boot manager can force a boot from USB on a machine that otherwise could not but best to just burn to a DVD and be done with it | 20:22 |
| Welastevil | Rave1. | 20:23 |
| Welastevil | how to do it? | 20:23 |
| NetworkingPro | Hey everyone | 20:23 |
| Welastevil | how to uise pop boot manager? | 20:23 |
| EriC^^ | RoadRunner: /vmlinuz and /initrd.img are symlinks that point to the kernel in /boot , type ls -l /vmlinuz and it should show what it's symlinked to | 20:23 |
| Welastevil | how to use I mean | 20:23 |
| NetworkingPro | I have ubuntu 14.04 - I installed along side Windows 10. I see that my windows 10 partitions are still in tact, but GRUB doesnt show a boot option for it. | 20:23 |
| NetworkingPro | Is there an easy way to add it to grub? | 20:24 |
| RoadRunner | EriC^^: which file are these lines in again? | 20:24 |
| Rave1 | Welastevil, download the program place image on CD or floppy | 20:24 |
| EriC^^ | RoadRunner: /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 20:24 |
| Welastevil | I see | 20:24 |
| RoadRunner | many thank's :) | 20:24 |
| Welastevil | I ahve none of them... floopy or CD drive...so/// forget it | 20:24 |
| EriC^^ | RoadRunner: you're going to need to copy the menu entry to /etc/grub.d/40_custom, sure np | 20:25 |
| Welastevil | there is a way just to delet all software except the OS? | 20:25 |
| Welastevil | like "renew" it? | 20:25 |
| Rave1 | Welastevil, so I have to ask how or who installed Ubuntu on that machine ? | 20:25 |
| Welastevil | it was installed in 2010. and that time the CD drive used to work))) | 20:26 |
| Rave1 | ok | 20:26 |
| RoadRunner | now a diff question, is it possible to load some kernel module to utilize extra buttons on multibutton mice? | 20:26 |
| NetworkingPro | Nevermind... ugh | 20:27 |
| Jordan_U | Welastevil: GNU/Linux doesn't have any strict separation between what constitutes "software" and what constitutes "the OS". You can completely remove all GUI support from Ubuntu and still have an OS. | 20:27 |
| wafflejock | Welastevil: personally I use clonezilla for taking snapshots of my machines and then can restore from a bootable USB drive I set that up on to recover, some machines come with a recovery partition pre-installed to restore to the same image used from the factory for setting up the machine | 20:27 |
| NetworkingPro | appears it just overwrote all our stuff | 20:27 |
| Rave1 | Welastevil, new optical drive or the scrap pile are your options now... or learn to install from an image on the drive | 20:27 |
| Pici | /36/36 | 20:27 |
| Jordan_U | Welastevil: Ubuntu does have an option in its installer to re-install while preserving your data in /home/ though. | 20:28 |
| Welastevil | how to install from image on drive? | 20:28 |
| wafflejock | Welastevil: you can configure grub on a partition and have it boot to that and can have grub get the iso running I'm pretty sure but it's not trivial | 20:28 |
| Rave1 | Welastevil, google knows it is a pain havent done that in years | 20:28 |
| Jordan_U | Welastevil: Don't have any USB drive available? | 20:29 |
| wafflejock | Welastevil: much easier to either get an external optical drive or some other way to boot off some media on that computer | 20:29 |
| Rave1 | http://www.howtogeek.com/196933/how-to-boot-linux-iso-images-directly-from-your-hard-drive/ | 20:30 |
| Welastevil | I see | 20:31 |
| Rave1 | he says that old machine will not boot from USB so what good is any external USB drives of any kind | 20:31 |
| Welastevil | my HD is very olf...11 years now | 20:31 |
| Welastevil | previouslly it was "ok" with its only 80 giga | 20:32 |
| Welastevil | but now its too slow | 20:32 |
| faiz | hi | 20:33 |
| wafflejock | Welastevil: yea if you can throw like $70 USD at it you can get a SSD (~$50) and probably grab an optical drive (~$20) from e-bay or something if there's really no USB boot options and I'm sure you'd just be limited by the CPU and/or RAM at that point | 20:34 |
| RoadRunner | any advice on how to use "extra" buttons on mice under Ubuntu? | 20:34 |
| Rave1 | and in lots of areas you can spend that 70 dollars and get a better used computer | 20:35 |

| ubuntu_nooob | where to find i386? | 20:39 |
| Rave1 | ubuntu_nooob, 32 bit chrome is gone | 20:40 |
| ubuntu_nooob | i know that | 20:40 |
| wafflejock | ubuntu_nooob: can you just use chromium? https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/chromium-dev/FoE6sL-p6oU | 20:40 |
| ubuntu_nooob | but how to install chrome? | 20:40 |
| ubuntu_nooob | chrome has embeded flash | 20:41 |
| Rave1 | so why did you even ask where is i386 if you know it is no more | 20:41 |
| mabus | you can use chromium you just wont be able to use some drm functionality like netflix | 20:41 |
| ubuntu_nooob | because i cant instal amd64 | 20:41 |
| nicomachus | mabus: you can use netflix with pepperflash | 20:41 |
| Rave1 | ubuntu_nooob, so use chromium | 20:42 |
| mabus | oh well gee wish someone told me that last week. | 20:42 |
| nicomachus | mabus: Google would have, quickly. | 20:42 |
| mabus | it didnt | 20:42 |
| nicomachus | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 20:42 |
| Rave1 | mabus I tried to tell you a few days ago | 20:42 |
| mabus | it gives a lot of outdated fixes, as new changes have rendered previous fixes obsolete | 20:42 |
| mabus | no you didn't, you told me to install the .deb | 20:42 |
| mabus | for the 64 bit chrome | 20:42 |
| Rave1 | the .deb of 64 bit chrome | 20:43 |
| mabus | yes | 20:43 |
| mabus | 15:41 < nicomachus> mabus: you can use netflix with pepperflash | 20:43 |
| Rave1 | or chromium | 20:43 |
| mabus | this is the information thats new to me | 20:43 |
| jushur | install google-chrome repo, install google-chrome. enable unsafe gpu accel in chrome://flags , and you have lagfree netflix | 20:45 |
| jushur | oh and you cant run metflix on i386 | 20:48 |
| jushur | m/n | 20:48 |
| nicomachus | why are so many of these "True" instead of "Xenial"? https://paste.ubuntu.com/15343509/ | 20:49 |
| wiblash | hey guys, i got a kubuntu boot bug... can anybody help me ? http://imgur.com/a/xsL1L | 20:51 |

| sruli | a 80gb file disappeared from my home dir, no clue how, problem is, my home dir is ecryptfs and my system is luks, i guess that rules out conventional recovery, is there a way i can try to recover while booted in a live system? | 20:51 |
| bekks | wiblash: you dont have a boot bug, you have a broken device sdc. | 20:51 |
| wiblash | bekks okey because if i boot into the recovery and make an dpgk i can boot without problems for one time, how can i fix this perm ? | 20:53 |
| bekks | wiblash: By replacing the broken device. | 20:53 |
| bekks | wiblash: No need for a query. | 20:54 |
| wafflejock | wiblash: http://askubuntu.com/questions/141862/is-this-drive-failure-or-something-else some things about getting more diagnostics on the drive but seems like bekks is on it there | 20:54 |

| radioboy | woosah | 21:04 |
| gr33nbits | question: you guys do anything special when using ssd's on ubuntu? | 21:04 |
| radioboy | solid state hard drives? no | 21:04 |
| Alastor2262 | no | 21:04 |
| phil42 | fstrim -v / | 21:05 |
| phil42 | fairly oftem | 21:05 |
| radioboy | what do you mean different? | 21:05 |
| bekks | trim is detected and used automatically. | 21:05 |
| phil42 | often | 21:05 |
| bekks | phil42: In recent versions of Ubuntu :) | 21:05 |
| gr33nbits | yeh ive a 850 evo and everything is working perfect just wanted to know if there was any tips or tricks | 21:05 |
| bekks | gr33nbits: Which Ubuntu do you use? | 21:05 |
| gr33nbits | had 12.04 updated to 14.04 | 21:05 |
| gr33nbits | a while ago | 21:06 |
| bekks | gr33nbits: So you are using 14.04 | 21:06 |
| phil42 | i swap aggressively on an ssd | 21:06 |
| gr33nbits | bekks, yes | 21:06 |
| gr33nbits | i changed swapiness to 10 | 21:06 |
| bekks | phil42: Upgrade your RAM ;) | 21:06 |
| phil42 | do-nothing desktop is currently 234M into swap | 21:06 |
| bekks | phil42: Which isnt really much, and depends on a lots of factors, including vm.swappiness | 21:07 |
| gr33nbits | it rarely goes to the swap, when i run vm's yeh but as soon i finish i sudo swapoff -a && swapon -a | 21:07 |
| bekks | gr33nbits: No need to do that. | 21:08 |
| phil42 | why? every M in swap if free memory | 21:08 |
| phil42 | is free | 21:08 |
| gr33nbits | bekks, oh okis nice to know | 21:08 |
| bekks | phil42: www.linuxatemyram.com | 21:08 |
| gr33nbits | i know that samsun magician is available for linux but they only thing i want to monitor is temp and i can do that with hddtemp, so thanks for the info no need to do nothing just keep on rocking like it is | 21:09 |
| phil42 | free as in beer | 21:09 |
| bekks | Free as in unused RAM is wasted RAM. | 21:09 |
| phil42 | free as in if it's in ram when it could be in swap it's wasted | 21:10 |
| bekks | phil42: You got the idea of swap horribly wrong. | 21:11 |
| nacc | that made no sense to me | 21:11 |
| gr33nbits | maybe i do too, explain please bekks | 21:11 |
| nacc | phil42: nearly anthing "could be in swap" ... but things should only reside in swap when "better" things can reside in memory to evict them to swap | 21:11 |
| bekks | gr33nbits: You always want as much RAM to be used as you have - but you want swap tp be used only if an application could not be started without swapping things out. | 21:12 |
| gr33nbits | i had the idea that i shouldn't use to much swap on ssd that's why i changed swappiness to 10 | 21:12 |
| gr33nbits | oh then i get it | 21:12 |
| bekks | gr33nbits: that was the case about a decade ago :) Nowadyas, you dont have to be worried about that. | 21:13 |
| gr33nbits | bekks, okis thanks a bunch | 21:13 |
| gvpm | hey, anybody on? | 21:14 |
| mabus | i remember reading somewhere that your ssd should die from many other things before it has to worry about finite amount of writes | 21:14 |
| bekks | mabus: thats correct nowadays. | 21:14 |
| bekks | gvpm: according to "/names", yes. | 21:14 |

| karen_ | no I am using the 64 bit. | 21:18 |
| phil42 | just checking | 21:18 |
| Rave1 | yes that has been a huge issue of late | 21:18 |
| karen_ | It gets stuck somewhere around the "ubuntu translation..." | 21:19 |

| ulyzze | why can't i ping my dhcp server though? | 21:43 |
| bekks | Because you dont have a valid IP address. | 21:44 |

| stormmore | the scariest thing about the interface file is when you either restart networking or reboot and hope to god you don’t have a typo in the file | 21:47 |
| kburk | ulyzze: use 'ifconfig' to check your interface. set an ip which is in the same network as your dhcp server and try pinging. | 21:47 |

| ulyzze | other than that i can't tell it is | 22:01 |
| mau_ | I've been having trouble updating software | 22:01 |
| mau_ | through the terminal | 22:01 |
| mau_ | http://imgur.com/keaC43I | 22:01 |
| MatroskaText | HERE should be a system like "please pull a number and wait if you are called" | 22:03 |
| kburk | which port do you have it plugged into on this router? you would have to login to the routers web interface to check if it sees it. did you statically assign 192.168.1.23 to your pc or was that assigned by dhcp? | 22:03 |
| Rave1 | MatroskaText, older posts talk of installing restricted extras | 22:04 |
| squinty | MatroskaText, this channel is manned by volunteers not paid staff. if no answer try in 10 minutes or so | 22:04 |
| ulyzze | kburk: i statically assigned that | 22:04 |
| ulyzze | as in the ubuntu guide | 22:04 |
| Rave1 | MatroskaText, more codecs and such | 22:04 |
| ulyzze | like this: sudo ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 | 22:04 |
| ulyzze | sudo route add default gw 10.0.0.1 eth0 | 22:05 |
| MatroskaText | EVERY codec installed Rave1 | 22:05 |
| tgm4883 | MatroskaText: Maybe there is something wrong with the MKV file? | 22:05 |
| kburk | ah ok. that helps. yep, that's correct. so these were the commands you used exaclty? 'sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.23' and 'sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.1' | 22:05 |
| kburk | that last command includes eth0 (missed that) | 22:06 |
| Rave1 | MatroskaText, than all I can say is corupted files , really dont know sorry never seen that before | 22:06 |
| ulyzze | kburk: yes | 22:06 |
| tgm4883 | kburk: ulyzze have you attempted to get an IP address from the DHCP server? | 22:06 |
| ulyzze | tgm4883: of course... fails | 22:06 |
| ulyzze | dhclient eth0 | 22:07 |
| tgm4883 | ulyzze: is the DHCP server a server you setup, or a router of some sorts? | 22:07 |
| kburk | ulyzze: are you sure that the ip 192.168.1.23 is not already in use by another computer connected to that router? | 22:07 |
| ulyzze | tgm4883: it's a router | 22:07 |
| tgm4883 | ulyzze: can you try a different port on the router? | 22:07 |
| ulyzze | i'll try another ip | 22:08 |
| tgm4883 | no, not another IP | 22:08 |
| tgm4883 | another physical port | 22:08 |
| docmur | I have two mail servers, one with 30 GB's of mail and the other with maybe 1GB of mail. The mail boxes on both servers are the same, so we want to rsync form the source (MX1) to the destination (MX2) Using Rsync, it's easy to send the mail from MX1 to MX2, however we also want the new 1GB of mail to get remove, can rsync do this in go? | 22:09 |
| tgm4883 | also, I'd rather see some configuration in the network file, but I won't step on kburk's toes here | 22:09 |
| kburk | dhclient should be working, so statically assigning a diff ip may not help. diff physical port is a pretty good idea. also, you could try connecting a diff computer to the cable and see if it works. | 22:09 |
| ulyzze | not working with another ip | 22:09 |
| ulyzze | tgm4883: i'll try that | 22:09 |
| bekks | docmur: Yes, rsync -av --delete | 22:09 |
| kburk | tgm4883: no problem, not stepping on toes. i do need to step away shortly so please feel free to help. | 22:10 |
| ulyzze | another pc is working alreayd | 22:10 |
| ulyzze | looks like i assigned manually the wrong port, router starts from 100 | 22:10 |
| tgm4883 | ulyzze: we mean either A) hooking another PC up to the same cable and seeing if it pulls an IP address or B) hooking this pc up to a different port on the router | 22:10 |
| ulyzze | tgm4883: i'll do that now | 22:11 |
| bekks | Port 100? | 22:11 |
| snowgoggles | MatroskaText: what's your codec issue matroska i presume? | 22:11 |
| kburk | i think he means the ip range of the dhcp server starts at .100 (please correct me if im wrong ulyzze) | 22:11 |
| ulyzze | Start IP Address: 192.168.1.100 | 22:11 |
| tgm4883 | ulyzze: personally, I like A since it lets us find out if it's a config issue or an issue from the wire onward | 22:11 |
| tgm4883 | ulyzze: that shouldn't really matter. That's just where it will start giving out IP addresses. | 22:12 |
| tgm4883 | ulyzze: for static addresses, you actually putting it below 100 was correct | 22:12 |
| kburk | ulyzze: using an ip below .100 (ex: like you did with .23) will work fine. actually if we are statically assigning ip's then using this is good as we wont use an ip that's already in use. | 22:13 |

| ulyzze | a dynamic one | 22:19 |
| tgm4883 | ulyzze: when you did the ifconfig commands. Did you actually use 10.0.0.100 or 10.0.0.1? | 22:19 |
| ulyzze | ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.123 netmask 255.255.255.0 | 22:21 |

Unfortunately there is no way for you to | 22:35 |
| dillon | fix this. However I played the exact same video file on the same machine (before I re-installed ubuntu) and it worked fine. What am I doing wrong? | 22:35 |
| wafflejock | dillon: perhaps when you installed before you hit the checkbox to get extra codecs during install and this time you didn't? | 22:37 |
| wafflejock | dillon: perhaps this post will help http://askubuntu.com/questions/171026/how-to-install-all-existing-media-codecs | 22:38 |
| dillon | I did, I went to the software center and checked all of the boxes, I even went back into the software center to double check | 22:38 |

| willmore | Is there a good place to find out about the state of gcc as used by Ubuntu for different architectures? I'm looking at Aarch64 in particular. It seems that Ubuntu is using the Linaro version of gcc and not mainline gcc. Is there somewhere I can go to to see what the plans are to move to newer versions? I'm looking at xenial in this case. | 22:42 |
| nacc | willmore: i think all gcc are built from teh same source pacakge, no? http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/xenial/gcc-defaults | 22:44 |
| nacc | willmore: and you might want to take xenial questions to #ubuntu+1 | 22:44 |
| willmore | nacc, thanks for the advice! | 22:44 |
| wafflejock | dillon: the alternative advice/answers given there don't seem to require adding any extra repositories though so maybe try that first instead | 22:44 |
| nacc | willmore: ah and sorry, the package i referred to above *may* be the cross compilers | 22:45 |
| nacc | willmore: not sure | 22:45 |
| wafflejock | dillon: once you start adding third party PPAs into the mix can have bad times with packages built and tested by different people getting mixed on your system | 22:45 |
| wafflejock | and no support here at that point really since it's all unknown what might be in those packages or what issues might crop up due to whatever was compiled into the package | 22:46 |

| k1l | kolbasz: apt-get uses the same background magic as software-center. | 23:10 |

| k1l | kolbasz: so that is your answer: you said you want the PPA so use the PPA. | 23:12 |
| k1l | kolbasz: cinnamon is in the ubuntu repos for 15.10. so you could use that. | 23:12 |
| kolbasz | yes, thats what I thought, but it seemed to contradict the internet so I thought to ask before proceeding | 23:13 |

Is there anything special I'd have to do to ensure all traces of Ubuntu are wiped, and all my partitions or whatever are running at maximum capacity? | 23:59 |
