[00:45] probably post /etc/fstab [00:46] nacc: I mount it in a directory in home. /boot is on my machine [00:47] nacc: I mean that the hard drive that once was running on my laptop can be used as an external storage and it also retains all of the file I had and need [00:47] smellsLikeGoatSp: what is the exact errors? can you show them in a pastebin?

[03:44] I need to mount a .iso into /media/virtual, then install it into virtual C:/Program Files with WINE [03:45] Furius ISO Mount and Gmount-iso are not working :( [03:46] I do not have Ubuntu 15.10. I only use the built in disk image mounter in Peach OSI [03:47] Found one! It's called "CDemu" and there's a ppa for 15.10 [03:47] I will try it now and report how it goes [03:47] it is built on Ubuntu 14.10 though [03:47] chinesesausage, it is built into 15.10 as well, however with the built in tool I cannot mount to a specific drive [03:47] which won't work for me because for this program's install, it requires multiple CDs (Diablo 2: LOD) [03:48] ok. Good to know [03:48] do you use several Desktop Environments in Ubuntu 15.10? [03:48] not currently, but I've tried them all [03:49] when I have Fedora installs, I usually keep GNOME3 but also install MATE or XFCE alongside it [03:49] right now I'm rolling with Ubuntu because the Unity DE is so convenient. I'm a hopper TBH though [03:49] to get the latest amd graphics driver on 15.10 should I add: ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa ? I saw a warning when adding the repo that it's compatible with wily 15.04 [03:50] I'm having some trouble with the open source driver kubuntu installed and I'd like to try the proprietary driver [03:50] I only hop between Peach OSI and Manjaro nowadays [03:50] Peach OSI? [03:50] what is that [03:51] it's an Ubuntu (Xubuntu) based distro. Been around for some time [03:51] tgm4883: Instead of making a folder couldn't I just use this code [03:51] http://pastebin.com/raw/SM7fjrn8 [03:52] it is quite good [03:52] specially the BareBones Edition [03:54] hm [03:55] hi i was wondering if anyone may know of a tutorial i can use to install Aion because i have googled it with little help provided, i am using ubuntu 15.10 playonlinux 4.2.10 and tried using wine version 1.7.22 ......1.7.47 and 1.9.1 along with this guide but i dont really understand it https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=30073&iTestingId=92263 [03:57] have you already submitted it to the Wine authors? [03:59] no i was trying to figure out how to install it using wine 1.9.1 properly but didnt really understand how to on the page provided [04:01] well, most times Playonlinux installs automatically the wine version known to work with the selected app [04:01] it seems Aion is still being tested [04:02] ok got it to work: here was my method [04:02] yesterday I was having issues installing Reason 5 with Playonlinux. It seems some apps still need a lot of work in wine [04:03] program: Furius ISO Mount. I mounted all 4 ISOs and using winecfg, set all of them as a separate drive [04:04] I believe I could have also done this using built in image mounter. Will do that next time around probably [04:04] why did the default iso mounter not work? [04:05] at first I wanted to load the .iso into the directory /media/virtual === Spr0cket- is now known as Spr0cket [04:06] but no program in the repositories could do that, and the CDemu program I downloaded won't even boot [04:06] therefore my solution was to mount all of them with Furius iso, which created folders in my home directory based on the iso name [04:06] then I set each one of those isos to a separate drive in winecfg [04:07] oh, you just wanted to control where the iso's mount? [04:08] were you out of disk space? [04:09] they are virtual isos for the windows program Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction. Needed to install in WINE [04:10] yes I wanted to mount each one to the same drive and swap them, but mounting all at once was quite convenient [04:11] ok [04:11] would it be best to go with the fglrx-updates package or the installer from the amd site in terms of stability? [04:11] did Diablo 2 worked thru WIne? [04:12] hi [04:12] good morning [04:12] i see 45 open bugs for the ubuntu package [04:12] gm venkatesh [04:13] im new here [04:13] welcome venkatesh!

[04:16] you'd think you can get answers [04:16] kk waiting for mint chat [04:16] linux mint is an Ubuntu derivative, though you will probably get better answers in the #linuxmint-help channel [04:18] chinesesausage: yes I managed to update Diablo 2 to latest version and run it successfully!

[05:59] nuccun: Maybe this is smth. with Windows ... [05:59] It very well could be [06:00] nuccun: Have you tried fix Windows and boot it up ? [06:00] i stopped dual-booting a couple years ago. Now I just run Windows in a VM if I need it. [06:00] davido: + [06:01] What do you mean by "fix windows"? [06:01] nuccun: Boot into it [06:01] there is no fixing it. ;) [06:01] win10 can not boot? [06:01] I can't, that's the issue I'm having. It says "Attempting Automatic Repair", goes to a "Diagnosing Your PC", then reboots to GRUB [06:02] nuccun: I think that this's not a GRUB fault or smth. of Dual Booting ... [06:02] nuccun: Smth. wrong with your Windows .. [06:02] F8 may boot into safe mode [06:03] nuccun: Also .. you could mount a partition with ... wrong flags or smth. else, and didn't unmount which causes problem. [06:03] a few years ago i had one that wouldn't boot to safe mode, but it would boot to regular windows. it was a little inconvenient for those times when you really need the flexibility of bare-bones. [06:04] nuccun: Try to boot into Linux then mount/remount hards of Windows and then reboot into it [06:04] nuccun: Also ... There's a ton of possible reasons ... [06:04] Yea I know [06:05] tons * [06:05] Was hoping it was one of those "Oh, yea, everyone has that problem, just do this..." kind of issues [06:06] So trying to mount the Windows8_OS partition gives me an error [06:06] nuccun: I hadn't xD ... cuz I don't like Windows and everything which it's contains ... except Games/Adobe/Office [06:06] nuccun: Here it is ..

[06:25] akhilesh: I think that ... 99% of them you won't start through Steam [06:25] But i've installed them on manjaro(linux) on the other partition [06:25] V7: Understood, I appreciate the help http://pastebin.com/pta3U228 [06:26] akhilesh: If u'd look at Store, u'd find that there's smth. like SteamOS/Linux and this means that Games which you're installing on Windows you'll use only on it === caitanya is now known as Muhammad === ljhade24 is now known as MurcieLee [06:26] akhilesh: ooh [06:26] akhilesh: I they are from Linux then all should work === Muhammad is now known as Muhammadiz [06:26] ok, thanks [06:27] Just copy all data from SteamPath/steamapps/common/* to new one [06:27] akhilesh: I'll llok [06:27] oki [06:27] look * [06:27] steam is in the default ubuntu repos? [06:28] nuccun: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda [06:28] akhilesh: +, but I'd recomment download installer from offcial site [06:29] V7: why so? [06:29] isn't package manager supposed to be better? [06:29] V7: That gives me the same thing as the first part of the last pastebin [06:29] nuccun: hmm [06:30] nuccun: Wait ... you're on sdb now ? You linux dist installe on sdb ? [06:30] installed * [06:31] V7: Possibly? I'm not sure, how can I tell? [06:33] V7: OH! No [06:33] GParted or "df" [06:33] That is my USB drive [06:33] sorry [06:33] Which one ?

[06:41] birbl: Wow .. bad one :) [06:41] v7: would it work if I delete the xorg.conf file via a live CD? [06:42] V7: Nope. However, same "no such file or directory" for everything, also it says "Volume is corrupt. You should run chkdsk." [06:42] which makes me uneasy [06:43] is there a Ubuntu equivalent to chkdsk? [06:44] nuccun: fdisk or testdisk maybe [06:45] yup that worked ;) [06:47] nuccun: I think that you ... changed partition .. [06:47] Idk how you did this ... but ... it is ... [06:47] Smth corrupted ... [06:47] See ... [06:47] You executed ntfsfix on GPT disk [06:49] nuccun: Is here any possibl wway to run: sudo fdisk /dev/sda ? [06:49] When it executed then hit on "p" then Enter [06:50] i know this isnt very ubuntu, but it is in a way for me, does minecraft only need java in ubuntu/linux? [06:50] or windows too? [06:50] windows too.

[06:53] yep [06:53] I'm dead [06:53] which os to install minecraft on [06:53] V7: So it's telling me when I go to use fdisk "WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sda'! The util fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted." [06:53] You killed me twice [06:54] nuccun: hmm [06:54] I have read that minecraft doesnt need java anymore but this MAY omly be for windows [06:54] nuccun: The warning is not a problem. [06:54] well come prepackage with java [06:55] robotdevil1: It may contain java reps inside minecraft dir, so ... this's not only for Windows [06:56] nuccun: It's only warning you that the fdisk tool doesn't work on disks using GPT for partitions. It only works on disks using the older MBR (DOS style) partitions . [06:56] nuccun: What gives "sudo parted /dev/sda" [06:58] robotdevil1: Use this one: Cossacks: Back to war [06:58] V7: so if that is true how do I install it in ubuntu? This is the problem Im having [06:59] V7: http://pastebin.com/fq8B3qC0 [07:00] V7: every command is some way uses java [07:00] It confuses me how it knows the partition is there, but can't seem to do anything with it [07:02] nuccun: cat /boot/con* | grep EFI [07:03] nuccun: Yeah ... we're trying to do smth. with xD [07:04] robotdevil1: You should know where is java in your minecraft folder ... then "./java -jar minecraft.jar" [07:05] http://pastebin.com/mEckWuaA [07:08] V7: http://pastebin.com/mEckWuaA [07:11] nuccun: I'm try to find smth to help you [07:11] trying * [07:11] V7: I appreciate the help man [07:17] nuccun: sudo gpt -r -vv show /dev/sda1 [07:18] nuccun: Also you can try sudo gpt recover /dev/disk1 [07:18] V7: gpt command not found [07:19] sudo apt-get intsall gpt [07:19] nuccun: Wait ...

Linux like women is very delicate, but simultaneously [07:25] haha [07:25] is very safe and strong ! [07:26] So [07:26] Did you install gpt :D ? [07:26] Ok, so, I installed gpt, but -r is not a recognized option [07:26] Hmm [07:26] also, it appears to be in another language [07:26] besides english [07:26] Then remove it :D [07:26] I'm about -r :D [07:27] i create a ubuntu file server where i can change the permissions from windows server active directory?

[07:30] because apt-get gpt gets me what I had, but that's not right [07:30] nuccun: default one [07:31] Hmm [07:31] what returns "sudo gpt" ? [07:31] sudo: gpt: command not found [07:32] o.o [07:32] You installed it ? [07:33] v7: ok, if i auth the file server in AD can i use the AD users permission for administrate the ubuntu files? [07:33] When I run "sudo apt-get install gpt" it installs something called "gpt" but that doesn't have a -r option when running [07:33] and everything appears to be in Portuguese maybe?

[08:18] V7: I'll keep that in mind [08:18] nuccun: Saving all to flash is quiet smart ! [08:18] Nice job ! [08:19] Hey all, not new to linux here but have always used linux in a utilitarian roll in a windows environment. Now I'm migrating to linux entirely. All of my experience until now has been file sharing from my media server using samba. I'm looking at finding the linux way of server client sharing as some programs in linux don't appear to allow directly opening files from a samba share in linux as they did in windows. Like I can't \\server\ [08:19] dir\file or smb://server/dir/file. So I'm wondering if there isn't a better way. Would the prefer method in Linux being setting up NFS, which I've never used, to share between server/client? [08:19] Oh Yea, been down this path before haha I made sure to backup all the stuff I needed [08:20] hi all, I dont know how to install Canon MF 8580 CDW network printer on ubuntu 14.04 64 bit [08:20] V7: Once again, thanks for all the help, have a good night. :) [08:20] after changing samba password unable to access samba shared folder... if i restart windows machine it works.. [08:21] Tush did you also change the password for the user on the linux machine? [08:21] nuccun: Thanks man ! Be healthy ! You'll recover all ! Be sure :) [08:21] Blakes5: You have option in Nautilus [08:21] Connect to server [08:21] There you can type smb://ip/ [08:21] Blakes5: NFS is quite simple, certainly if you use only linux systems. There is also the option of sshfs [08:21] hi all, I dont know how to install Canon MF 8580 CDW network printer on ubuntu 14.04 64 bit [08:21] !nfs | Blakes5 [08:21] Blakes5: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. [08:22] linocisco: Hey man .. I'd help, but I didn't work with it :( [08:22] Blakes5: it's more about how you mount that Samba share. if you do it from the commandline (either with a command or set it to mount in fstab) it'd show in all the software whether they understand nautilus/gnome mounts, or not [08:22] linocisco: Someone should help [08:23] Blakes5: I'd do research on why the applications don't open the files first, though [08:24] Blakes5: just to make sure it won't occur with nfs or even samba mounted differently [08:25] V7 yes, but it doesn't mount the share in a way that some programs can utilize without copying the file to the client. Like VLC will play files in a playlist because it can't handle "smb:/server/file" style format that nautilus constructs when you drag/drop a bunch of files into the play list. And like password-gorilla.....I don't even know how to get password-gorilla to access the samba share directly without setting up a fstab moun [08:25] t for mount on boot whereas in windows I just formatted the location of the file to open as //server/file. That nor smb://server/file works in that program. [08:25] warning ignoring invalid value 'bain controller via the' for parameter 'map to guest' [08:25] Blakes5, yes i did [08:25] Hey guys, I've upgraded from 14.04 to 15.10 and the unity interface isn't showing when logging in. For a newly created user it works fine. How can I reset my home folder per unity? [08:26] Blakes5, still no if i do windows system restart same password works [08:26] Blakes5, just now im again changed password [08:26] Tush just making sure here but, there are two passwords on the linux machine when samba is involved. There is the machine account password and the samba server account password. Did you change both? === pasha is now known as Guest22290 [08:27] Blakes5, yes sir i did both password changed [08:27] hmmm, thats strange. I need to think about it. [08:27] i just installed linux-4.5.0 on ubuntu14.04 but there is no wifi option. any idea how to fix? [08:27] Blakes5, now now i changed pass word [08:28] Blakes5, [sudo] password for tush: [08:28] WARNING: Ignoring invalid value 'bain controller via the' for parameter 'map to guest' [08:28] Blakes5, what this error for [08:28] tush IDK, I've never seen it. [08:28] Blakes5, im using webmin to control samba [08:29] !webmin | tush [08:29] tush: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. [08:29] tush I'm guessing webadmin is throwing the error, not samba. [08:29] i just installed linux-4.5.0 on ubuntu14.04 but there is no wifi option. any idea how to fix? [08:29] Blakes5, but sir im using putty to change password [08:30] Blakes5, sudo smbpasswd -a username [08:31] tush if you used passwd and then smbpasswd then I don't know why a share would no longer be visible to that user. [08:31] lightpriest: uhm, this here suggests you drop to a terminal and remove or just move your dconf directory (this contains all GNOME settings!) [08:31] lightpriest: alternatively, unity-tweak-tool --reset-unity apparently fixes that [08:31] lightpriest: see more in http://askubuntu.com/questions/453482/update-to-14-04-unity-is-not-loading-after-i-login-to-the-admin-profile-after [08:32] tush you could try /etc/init.d/samba restart and see if that clears it up [08:32] boxmein: thanks, I'm trying this [08:34] Blakes5, No sir [08:34] Blakes5: Linux will do all what you want from him [08:34] Blakes5, just changed password for user still not working [08:35] Blakes5, if i reboot my windows system it will work [08:35] tush then then my next step would be to go through /etc/samba/smb.conf and make sure my shares are still defined properly [08:35] Tush so when does it break? [08:35] tush: "testparm" to check your smb.conf [08:36] Blakes5, when i change password for user [08:37] i just installed linux-4.5.0 on ubuntu14.04 but there is no wifi option. any idea how to fix? [08:37] llutz, u want dump [08:37] tush: check the output [08:38] llutz, yes everything is ok as before was [08:38] V7 Ok. That doesn't help me know or find out to know how to make it work. So, how would I link directly to a file on a samba share in password-gorilla when \\server\file nor smb://server/file works. This has been an issue I've been looking for an answer for a while. But I've been able to work around it by copying the database file. I'm looking to get away from that and open the file on the samba share directly with password-gorilla w [08:38] ithout having to mount a share. Is that possible or will it require a fstab mount for seemless integration? [08:38] llutz, Blakes5 If i reboot my windows system it will work with new password.. [08:39] V7, nobody could help [08:39] Tush I don't understand if it works when you reboot.....when does it stop working? [08:39] Blakes5: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/264950/using-samba-for-random-access-without-mounting-the-file-system [08:39] Blakes5: http://askubuntu.com/questions/409411/authenticate-in-network-share-samba-without-having-to-mount-explicitly [08:40] linocisco: [08:40] V7 thanks I'm taking a look at that now. [08:41] linocisco: http://supportdrivers.info/canon-imageclass-mf8580cdw-drivers-win8-1-mac-os-x-linux/ ? [08:41] Blakes5, If change password now it will stop working , if i restart system after changing password it will work [08:42] Tush so when you change the password in Samba on the linux machine, windows stops working? [08:42] lightpriest: let me know if this fixes the issue for you, so I can know myself in the future :P [08:44] Blakes5, sharing stop working throwing error you might not have permission [08:45] boxmein: sure thing :P [08:46] Sounds like the issue is in Windows, not Samba or Linux system. Windows caches the password for future use. [08:46] Blakes5, im accessing using IP not server [08:46] tush So when you reboot Windows prompts you for the new password and then it works. [08:47] Blakes5, yes yes [08:47] Tush \\192.168.0.1\dir\file is that something like you're using or is it something else? === dreamon_ is now known as dreamon [08:47] Blakes5, same u typed [08:47] tush ok [08:48] tush So when you reboot windows and the new password works it only breaks when you change the password on the samba server? [08:48] :q! [08:49] Blakes5, Yes, and one more thing i just discovered if i use server name not by IP to aceess it work [08:49] V7 yeah it doesn't look like accessing a samba share in linux is as seemless as in windows. [08:49] boxmein: nothing works :( I've never felt so lost. I usually know my way around in these things [08:50] boxmein: do you know of some session log file of unity or the lightdm greeter that I can take a look at? [08:50] linocisco: dmesg ? [08:50] Tush I don't know how to get windows to dynamically ask for the new password without a reboot. But I would not consider that a major hurdle....just reboot and the problem is fixed until next password change. [08:51] lightpriest: there's the X11 log, which is in /var/log/Xorg.0.log [08:51] lightpriest: LightDM works though, since the greeter is fine [08:52] lightpriest: the issue is unity-side, and you can probably use your account fine with a non-gnome window manager [08:52] Blakes5, still not able to access my shared folder.... [08:53] boxmein: yeah, it does, but maybe it tries to run unity and then unity decides not to load some other stuff [08:53] V7, why dmesg? [08:53] boxmein: ohh well :/ [08:54] lightpriest: that's probably the plan [08:54] lightpriest: issue* [08:54] lightpriest: but, the X11 logs are your best bet. [08:54] Tush IDK at this point. [08:55] Tush from what I'm getting from you is that it works/it doesn't work. I would need to have hands on to troubleshoot the problem. [08:55] Blakes5, password is change is working on both samba and unix but on share [08:55] boxmein: I couldn't find anything there. if I open up a gnome-terminal after I log in (from tty01) and run "setsid unity", unity comes up, but without the top right items (clock, logout, etc.) [08:55] u want access [08:56] Blakes5, i mean to u nees remote access [08:56] tush yes but I'm not asking for that. I'm just saying I don't know and in order to troubleshoot it I would have to examine it myself. [08:57] lightpriest: that specific panel issue is usually fixed by restarting the unity-panel-service [08:57] Blakes5, looks like some password sync problem [08:57] tush I'm not getting the information I need here in order to actually see what is going on. From your descriptions I'm not sure what exactly is happening. [08:57] lightpriest: to be honest, I'm not that well-versed in unity internals, so I probably can't help you specifically [08:58] Blakes5, do u want ubuntu access [08:58] tush no [08:58] lightpriest: I've had most issues with unity resolved by avoiding proprietary graphics drivers [08:58] boxmein: no problem, I think I'm getting somewhere :P [08:58] Blakes5, what info u need SMB.conf [08:58] tush is it still allowing you to put in the new password on reboot and it works? [08:59] Blakes5, after reboot it ask for password and it work [09:00] tush does it break on the next reboot? [09:00] Blakes5, NO [09:01] hey i need help with ufw, anyone ? [09:01] tush then I would settle for the reboot as being the solution. And instruct anyone affected that their password has been changed and they will need to reboot in order to access their shares. [09:02] tush: "auth fail" -> "re-attempt auth" is too hard for windows :P [09:02] Blakes5, Ok, but is there any problem with my smb.conf [09:02] tush it's a password caching problem with Windows. [09:02] Tush any solution you're looking for is going to come from the Windows side. [09:02] tush: if rebooting windows fixes it, it's a windows problem [09:03] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter Ok [09:04] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter to change password for any user command is sudo smbpasswd -a username [09:04] tush there may be some commandline utility in windows to force it to ask for a password. If it exists it is going to be far beyond any users (hell I don't know what it is). So in this circumstance instructions to reboot would be appropriate. [09:05] tush -a adds a users [09:05] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter to reset [09:05] tush smbpasswd username will change the password. [09:06] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter ok just smbpasswd username will change any existing user [09:06] tush right [09:06] Blakes5, Sir mostly i use webmin for sharing purpose [09:07] tush: but then convincing windows that it should ask for a new password for the server apparently requires a reboot.. it can't work that out on its own when samba starts saying "wrong password, try again" [09:07] boxmein: I think I found the issue [09:07] lightpriest: ? [09:07] boxmein: I mean, I found some difference in ~/.xsession-errors in different user sessions [09:08] hello. i can't change the opacity of my terminal? [09:08] Please help [09:08] tush I think someone posted earlier that it is not entirely compatable with debian linux. [09:08] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i have to do CHMOD 0777 to share any folder, then put valid user [09:08] sworup182: ?! [09:08] sworup182: Go to profiles settings [09:09] Then background and change [09:09] Blakes5, i know sir sorry for that [09:09] tush smb.conf tells you 0755 I believe. [09:09] V7: thanks man. [09:09] Blakes5, yes but no one able to write any or creat any folder [09:10] Blakes5, just read [09:10] Blakes5, if i do chmod 0777 allow specific user then flawlessly he can use [09:10] Tush I know little of linux permissions since I only use it for personal stuff so 777 will generally solve any problems for me but I'm fairly certain you don't want to use that as a solution in a multiuser environment. [09:11] tush: I have 2777 on my samba uplink folder. personal homes (or other types of per-user share) should definitely be 755 or even 700 [09:12] Blakes5, Tri [09:12] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter if i keep 0755 only root can read write execute [09:13] tush: 0755 means anyone can read execute, only owner (whoever that is) can write [09:13] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter but owner is root only [09:14] tush then change the owner if it is a personal share for a non-root user [09:14] lightpriest: hmm.. at least you'll get to google more specifically now [09:14] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter owner will be only single user right??? [09:15] tush if the folder is for TUSH but you created the folder with root then it belongs to root. I believe the command is chown to change the owner to TUSH [09:15] tush: yeah. if you set g+ws then you can put a group on the share and new files/folders in the share will get the new group. [09:16] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter yes all shared folder is root only [09:17] Tush then the question is "Who needs access to that folder"? If it's just one user then you want to chown it. If it's a group of users then use Triffid's suggestion. [09:17] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter in future if i want to change owner will i be able to ... [09:17] tush: if you're using groups, the owner is basically irrelevant [09:19] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i want tush to be full access but keeping root as the super root if something happens root can delete any files from it [09:19] Tush root has access to everything always. [09:19] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter You mean even i change owner of folder to tush [09:20] tush yes [09:20] wubi is done? [09:20] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter OK OK :) [09:21] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i want 5 user to be read write and execute in that case [09:22] Tush then you want to create a group and use Triffid's suggestion [09:22] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i must creat group and put all 5 user in that group right [09:22] tush right [09:23] That's 10am my time https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/ACcr2SuH/14%3A00UTC [09:23] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter then what will be the sharing rules [09:23] whoops [09:23] yeah but is wubi done? [09:23] Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i mean permission [09:23] tush you create the group. you add users to group. you assign permissions for the group to access the folder/files.

After that unity loaded and I did the tweak-tool reset flag and everything went back to normal. Thanks!

[09:38] Hey everyone. I recently upgraded from 15.04 to 15.10. Since then I've been getting a plymouthd error on startup. I searched google and found what looks like an easy solution, but I still get the same error whenever I logon. [09:38] Hiro`: what kind of error you havin mate? [09:38] It's described with the fix here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/407131/why-is-plymouthd-crashing-on-startup [09:39] whaaaaaat [09:39] I've installed my system yesterday with a single account [09:39] Hiro`: how long have you been working on 15.04 before upgrading? [09:39] yesterday I could use sudo as I want [09:40] lotuspsychje: I'm also getting this error, despite attempts to fix: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/03/fix-failed-to-fetch-google-chrome-apt-error-ubuntu [09:40] today the system tells me I'm not in the sudoers [09:40] so what, I'm fucked? [09:40] !chrome-repo | Hiro` [09:40] Hiro`: Google recently deprecated 32-bit Chrome, which causes errors on 64-bit multiarch Ubuntu systems. To fix this, run: sudo sed -i 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list /opt/google/chrome/cron/google-chrome [09:41] lotuspsychje: right, so my issue is, why don't these fixes appear to do anything? [09:41] is it because I've switch from bash to zsh (I don't think so)?? [09:41] lotuspsychje: I'd been on 15.04 for 5 or 6 months. [09:41] DevAntoine: please try to ask your issue all in one line, and be patient mate [09:41] when installing the system yesterday I've only provided a password for my account but I can't use it to login with root [09:42] Hiro`: when did you upgrade to 15.10? [09:43] Apparently I'm not in the sudoers anymore. I've installed my system yesterday, I could use "sudo" with my account with any issue, but today I'm not in the sudoers anymore, the root's password seems not to be the same as my account. What can I do? [09:43] lotuspsychje: recently, last couple of weeks. I forget the exact day [09:43] Hiro`: ok, just be carefull you upgrade to the next version, before your current version is end of life, might be danger for security [09:44] lotuspsychje: I'm probably going to jump to LTS as soon as the next version is released. [09:44] oh god, I know. I've messed with groups, I'm only in the "docker" group. How can I get back to all the initial groups? Can someone give me a list? [09:44] for now, I am puzzled by various strange bugs [09:44] can I even do something to get back to the sudo group without sudo? [09:45] Hiro`: maybe you should backup things while you can and start clean? [09:45] I also find that emacs takes an age to load when I'm at home. whereas at work, it's instantaneous [09:46] and when I try to bundle rails apps from within emacs, I'm refused because I lack permissions - even though there are no problems when bundling from the shell. [09:47] I can't add my current user to other groups without sudo? [09:47] DevAntoine: only administrator can put users into new groups [09:48] DevAntoine: fire up a liveusb, mount your main disk and edit /etc/passwd as necessary [09:48] yeah, I've seen I can boot in recovery [09:49] well, the day is starting well... [09:49] see you soon [09:49] DevAntoine: alternatively, just pass init=/bin/bash on the kernel commandline via grub edit and fix it that way ;) [09:49] hello [09:51] i am new to linux. how to install software by using sudo?

There is no /boot partition, yet it seems to be full [11:56] hicoleri: what is on that usb? [11:57] k1l_:xubuntu [11:57] EDinNY: can you provide a "df -h" and "df -i" in a pastebin like paste.ubuntu.com ? [11:57] hicoleri: and if you choose ubuntu on that menu, does it boot the usb? is the usb working? tested on another pc or usb port? [11:57] k1l_That happened after I installed linux mint on my computer [11:58] yes it does work on other pcs [11:58] k1l_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15401021/ [11:58] k1l:The boot order menu in my BIOS also shows only ubuntu as an option [11:59] hicoleri: wait, is says "ubuntu" in the bios boot menu, but you got mint installed? [11:59] k1l_:yep (and the LM guys werent answering me in their channel) [12:00] akik, there's nothng unuusual there :( [12:00] EDinNY: and "df -i"? [12:00] k1l_:this problem started from about half a year ago. [12:01] emilsp: does it crash regularly? did you notice that the crashing started after installing a new gfx driver module? [12:01] WOW! k1l_: /dev/sda1 732960 724109 8851 99% / [12:01] akik, I did an upgrade recently, and whilst the system in general is buggy, my gnome session generally survives [12:01] hicoleri: the OS cant interfer with the bios loading menu. so i guess the usb port is not recognizing the usb [12:01] yup [12:02] hicoleri: so its more a hardware issue. [12:02] I don't know about that... [12:02] k1l_: How can that be? Too many files? HUH? [12:03] EDinNY: a lot of small files using all the inodes. [12:03] akik, I have a feeling this happened when I was switching inbetween tty's [12:03] hicoleri, you've previously booted that particular stick? Have you tried another? [12:03] because lightdm and gnome-shell session interaction is weeeiiird [12:03] EDinNY: start with "dpkg -l |grep linux-headers" and see what old kernel headers you can purge with apt-get [12:03] k1l_:I've tried all of those on my desktop, they work perfectly fine. [12:04] ourmov_: [12:04] hicoleri: sounds like the usb port is damaged [12:04] k1l_: Must be some stupid error. This machine is a router. No real stored data. No users [12:04] hicoleri, some USB stick can be usable, yet unbootable. [12:04] emilsp: i'm a bit concerned about your comment "system in general is buggy". maybe your upgrade failed somehow? [12:05] ouroumov_:Thats fine, but shouldn't my boot order menu show my other hardware like my HDD and CD drive? [12:06] Yes, unless those have been disabled in the bios === vert0let|afk is now known as vert0let|train [12:07] hicoleri: we are long time out of the scope of this channel. see your hardware manual or ask in ##hardware about those issues. [12:08] okay [12:10] akik, it's the way we mount /home in the office (over the network) and the fact that gnome3 has never run nicely on ubuntu [12:10] hello. Sorry this is not Ubuntu specific. I have noob questions about VPS (Virtual Private Server), can anyone recommend a freenode channel for that? (or maybe PM) [12:11] who are you thinking you might use for your vps? [12:11] adrian_1908: i dont know your question so i would start in #ubuntu-offtopic [12:13] k1l_: Ok, I'll try my luck there. Tried a few channel names that I could think of, but those didn't exist :) [12:14] !alis | adrian_1908 [12:14] adrian_1908: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels.

[12:25] I seem to be out of inodes in "/" suggestions? [12:25] get #rekt [12:25] rekt? [12:26] why are you storing so many files ? [12:26] I imagine there's a homogenous collection of loadsoffiles, right ? [12:27] emilsp: Don't know. This is a 12.04 machine that is used as a router. it has only been installed, and updated. No users [12:27] Yes, I have run autoremove [12:28] EDinNY: what's the problem exactly [12:29] check log files [12:29] EDinNY: can you pastebin a "dpkg -l | grep linux-headers"? [12:29] EriC^^: df -i returns /dev/sda1 732960 724110 8850 99% / [12:30] k1l_: there are 49 of them [12:30] EDinNY: well that sucks [12:30] EDinNY: can you pastebin? and a "uname -a"? [12:30] LOL [12:30] the inodes are very low to begin with though [12:31] i have 6,000,000 and it's a 90gb filesystem [12:31] EDinNY: thing is: you dont need the old kernel-headers from kernels you dont use anyway. [12:31] I knew that. Purge does not seem to get rid of them [12:31] EDinNY: how big is that fs? [12:31] ERiC^^ are you available to assist or do you have a going on now? Sorry had to leave yesterday have more time to fix this drive today..

Have 17.2 Rafaela an 14.04 on one extended part.. left a 210Gb section for this purpose, hoping to do a custom install an then reload Toshiba drivers.. Win 7 pretty much took Part table , cleared entries n took part of a swap part i had as a buffer.. Rescatux sees unalloc space, "disks" util in second drive 17.2 n 10.04 500Gb sees the 720+ Gb as unallo [12:37] c but still shows the parts., Gparted thinks it is unalloc..

Am still in rescatux shell.. Can go into 500 Gb 17.2 but would prob need reboot.. [12:40] resc_040b2_1369: ok boot the 17.2 [12:40] ERiC^^, shut down n restart??? [12:40] k1l_: thanks! [12:40] resc_040b2_1369: yes [12:40] boot the live usb [12:41] EDinNY: now run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to let apt run again [12:41] ERiC^^, how do i get back to this chat??

Guessing use #ubuntu as "channel"?? [12:43] EDinNY: after that we can run a bash one-line-script to let old kernels and headers be removed [12:43] yeah [12:43] Thanks. Easier than my plan to build a script file, k1l_ [12:43] EDinNY: dpkg --list | grep 'linux-headers' | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -V | sed -n '/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\([0-9.-]*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/q;p' | xargs sudo apt-get purge [12:43] thats for headers, [12:44] ERiC^^, THX(1138) back in few..

Read /var/log/apt/history* [12:55] Executed too fast, and they did not go away [12:55] EDinNY: try adding a "-y" before purge [12:55] Guest75917: If it's a kernel regression, reboot and hold shift to get into grub menu, pick an older kernel and see if it works with that [12:55] apt-get -y purge [12:56] EriC^^: That did it!

Python is ok but 70-80% of apps use Win7.. So [13:07] oo Hey presto, missed parts of Win 7 process n Now 1TB 17.2 & 14.04 Parts are SL1gtLy 0Ff..any ideas sysadmin?

[14:10] Guest36154: dont add anything yet, the partition table has to all add up or you'll lose other partitions, that window actually writes a new partition table with whatever is selected ( it doesn't just add them ) [14:10] Guest36154: try pressing printscreen [14:10] save it and go to imgur.com and uplaod [14:10] can you upgrade ubuntu the 'debian way'; eg. updating sources.list and apt-get [14:10] *upload [14:10] having some trouble with do-release-upgrade :) [14:10] ERic^^,OHHH KAY, NOT going to make it worse... [14:10] bezaban: no [14:11] bezaban: what trouble? [14:11] ERiC^^ going to write this info down then do tasks [14:11] EriC^^: it's unsupported here, but it's getting precise.gz and then has no candidates for install [14:11] bezaban do-release-upgrade from what to what?

Do I have to have an IMGUR account [14:16] Guest36154: no [14:17] ERiC^^, so imgur.com in browser, then guessing, select upload n do same as if "attaching" a file in an email?? [14:17] V7, you around? [14:18] bah. dev ds is full. Will finish trying the 'debian' upgrade then re-clone and try eol upgrade process again [14:19] Guest36154: yeah [14:19] I'm suspecting some obsolete packages or general mismanagement. It was installed as 7 from the looks of it [14:20] bezaban: i dont think the debian upgrade works in ubuntu [14:20] what does do-release-upgrade say? [14:21] ERiC^^, have imgur, does it need an address? [14:22] I can't remember, since I've had multiple attempts the past few days, I had the output logged to a file, but re-cloned the VM. [14:22] Guest36154 upload in imgur, then copy-paste the url here [14:22] it was messages about No candidate ver: [14:22] for mostly every package [14:23] MonkeyDust, have the screenshot showin on the imgur screen where is the URL?? do [14:23] but it *did* get the next LTS version (precise.tar.gz) correctly [14:23] and changed sources.list [14:23] Guest36154 the address, on top of the browser http:... [14:25] MonkeyDust you are assisting ERiC^^ in assisting Guest36154? So i finish start the upload? [14:25] Guest36154: yes press upload, and then give us the link at the top [14:27] ERiC^^,OHHHH Light breaks through Clouded Mind... sk3RwNW appears to be link?? Correct? [14:28] MonkeyDust, thank you for assist also [14:29] Guest36154: what's the full link? [14:29] Guest36154 have you never copy/pasted a link before? [14:30] ERiC^^, the browser bar says "imgur.com/sk3RwNW" Is that correct format? [14:30] MonkeyDust, you are correct. [14:31] yeah it loads fine [14:31] Hi! I’m trying to set the system time to UTC such that when I log in and run “date”, or run programs that ask for the current time, they get UTC. Based on searching and http://askubuntu.com/a/524362, I expect that when I run sudo timedatectl set-timezone America/New_York, the system time will be set to UTC. The program exits with 0. [14:31] However, when I log out and log back in, and run the `date`, command, I’m still shown a date in EDT. [14:31] Guest36154 next time, click 2 or 3 times on the link, so it gets colored, then right click on it and copy... then paste here, with right click [14:32] kevinburke: ahhh, UTC != America/New_York... [14:32] here’s the output of timedatectl status: https://gist.github.com/kevinburke/a7fd77d97ceaedba8e00 [14:32] MonkeyDust, that is timely advice.. appreciated but in many internet ways I am still a Commodore PET user.. [14:33] * lotuspsychje presses play on tape [14:33] ERiC^^, are you able to see the table? [14:33] Guest36154 i come from the sinclair zx spectrum times, when 48k was *huge*, so i'm patient [14:33] zykotick9: I’m a little confused… yes, those are not the same? where should I be overwriting America/New_York that I’m not [14:34] Guest36154: yeah [14:34] Guest36154: ok, first off, do you have everything backed up? you could back up this drive as it is, using dd in case it doesn't go right [14:35] /25/21 [14:35] lotuspchyje n MonkeyDust, I used to have "Miner49er", "NAB" n oine other ASCII games on the tapes.. Then learned how to "hack" the BASIC for "Miner" became the richest 7th grader around... LOOONG before bitcoin was a glimmer.. [14:35] ERiC^^, can do back up how? [14:36] Guest36154: do you have another 1tb drive? [14:37] hello , i have a problem with the suspension of ubuntu-mate [14:40] Guest36154: do you have files you absolutely need? [14:41] you could get the files from the home dir and save them to another disk from testdisk before trying to recover the whole partition table [14:41] ERiC^^, no 1Tb but could probably fit parts of the data on the still Attached 500 Gb.. If oculd get linux to read it in the GUI.. Am not as good at Linux CLI as I once was with COMmand Line.. Getting 1Tb parts visible to Ubunt n Linux could enable me to take Win 7 disc with me back to NH(train leaves SC in 16 hours n still have another barn frame to help best friend take down) so getting the Parts functional again would allow a "C [14:41] lean Win7" install at later date then reinstall of 14.04 n 17.2(or 3), breaking Win 7 again prob.. Advice sysadmins?? [14:41] FYI, I posted that timezone question here: http://askubuntu.com/q/746736/278643 [14:41] Guest36154: ok, go to one of the linux partitions at the bottom and press "p" [14:41] it should show the files [14:43] hi drone [14:45] kevinburke: can this help? http://askubuntu.com/questions/3375/how-to-change-time-zone-settings-from-the-command-line [14:45] Hi this is my first time here [14:45] ERiC^^, the parts showing in the upload from bottom up are: 8 Gb swap; 485 Gb 17.2; 245 Gb 14.04(had a 2 or 4 Gb swap or unalloc in here i think); then th 18 Gb swap "Buffer" so win 7 could have first 210 Gb f [14:45] Just found this channel thanks to google [14:46] of drive for itself(fat finger miss key..) [14:46] I was wondering if I could ask a couple of questions [14:46] exnihilo: welcome to the ubuntu community, you can ask ubuntu questions here [14:46] !ask | exnihilo [14:46] exnihilo: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [14:46] Guest36154: ok which partition has the data you need? [14:46] ok sorry and thanks for the advice [14:47] Guest36154: go to that partition and press "p" and see if the files are there [14:47] ubottu, very adroit a bot, you are.. high functioning in a 'bot, is good, yes? [14:47] Guest36154: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [14:48] ERiC^^ the most important is the 485 Part [14:48] you are french? [14:48] so do the P on it [14:48] yes [14:49] The speed parameter under connection information displays the speed of my ISP or my ethernet speed? [14:49] hello guys [14:50] ERiC^^, 485 Gb lists well, I can just get into the "home" from here to get to the desktop n my files?? [14:50] exnihilo: no thats the max speed your adapter can handle [14:51] Guest36154: yes, press right arrow to open a dir [14:51] exnihilo: to know your isp speed, do an online speed test or an ubuntu iso download [14:52] Have gotten to my "desktop" n my "User" home dir with ictures n music n all [14:52] HATE MISKEYING..... [14:52] By adapter you mean network interface card? [14:52] right? [14:53] exnihilo: yes wifi or ethernet depends wich your on [14:53] exnihilo: what speed does it show? [14:53] I'm pretty sure my mobo nic supports gigabyte speed and i have a cat 5e cable [14:54] greetings. any pointers for triggering actions on midi events? as far as I can tell xev doesn't see midi devices [14:54] Guest36154: ok you want the whole /home dir? [14:54] So how come i only see 100 Mb/s [14:54] exnihilo: you can also ask more network related questions in ##networking mate [14:54] So you think i better head there [14:55] Ok thanks for you information lotuspsychje [14:55] exnihilo: well this channel is for specific ubuntu problems if you have any [14:55] ERiC^^, this "chat" stuff is cool n all that but i beat ADHD by purposely slowing my existence down, think it's cool that MonkeyDust, ubottu n lustopsycheje helped otu but Hiow do I change the screen so I can just read what you are saying.?? I am not a "Pakled", just have to be methodical so I don't F*&#( it up worse.."

Does that signify how F^** up my Part is? [14:57] Guest36154: all? [14:57] /home/user is in red for instance? [14:58] ERiC^^ Have gotten down individual file names I recognize.. Whiole Screen is Red, every filename [14:59] Guest36154: is there a size next to them? [14:59] try to recover some files by pressing c [15:00] EriC^^, some have sizes, looks like some do not, likely FOLDERs that are DIR's on their own, am going to try n do "C"opy of selected files n see if can put them on the Desktop of the Linus Install shell from the stick [15:03] ERiC^^ chose a file n am now given option of /home/mint.. guessing the "Desktop" here is the "Desktop" of the shell I am in?? [15:05] Guest36154 are you using Mint? [15:05] ERiC^^, have selected "Desktop" is now complaining of low disk space because the stick is only an 8GB right?? how do I force testdisk to see my 500Gb? [15:05] Guest36154: you have to mount it [15:06] Guest36154: and go to where it's mounted [15:06] MonkeyDust, am using my 17.2 USB to run the Toshiba with the 1Tb in the drive bay n the 500 Gb on external power via a usb [15:07] ERiC^^, how to mount from inside the 17.2 USB stick? [15:07] Guest36154: try sudo lsblk -f | nc termbin.com 9999 [15:07] and paste the link here [15:08] how is this an ubuntu issue ? [15:08] am I missing something with it ? [15:09] he has 14.04 and 17.2 [15:09] will try.. copying failed due to low disk space.. guessing the Install stick shell only has permission to use it's own "in stick" swap space?? [15:09] what do you mean "he has" [15:10] ERiC^^, am trying sudo etc now [15:10] i mean he has them installed [15:10] right - but how does "this" have anything to do with ubuntu [15:10] I'm not seeing anything to fix/manipulate ubuntu [15:10] he's trying to recover his ubuntu install [15:10] after installing windows and messing the partitions up [15:11] good morning [15:11] ikonia Ihave a triple boot 1Tb.. ubuntu mate 14.04 n linux mate 17.3 w a Win 7 bollux on the Part table due to Win &idiocy [15:11] I've managed to overwrite /etc/shells with garbage, I'd like to reset it [15:11] is the default contents of that file available somewhere? [15:12] cbarrett: just a list of valid shells [15:12] I understand [15:12] hi [15:12] I'd just like to reset it to the default [15:12] The default contents of that file should be available somewhere, right? [15:13] cbarrett: it's just a list of valid shells [15:13] just put in the valid shells you want [15:13] ERiC^^, sudo lsblk etc returns this: http://termbin.com/pq6j [15:14] I understand. I use a non-standard shell, and I don't want to mess up any of the other software my company uses [15:14] not sure which shells it depends on [15:15] Hi [15:15] So I want to reset it back to the default [15:15] If you don't know what that is, that's fine [15:15] Maybe someone else can help me [15:15] But repeating the you already said comes across as rude [15:15] ERiC^^, had to open another TERM to do the sudo lsblk etc.. how does the Mount concept work to get the 500 Gb, via USB recognized by the 17.2 shell I am in??? [15:16] ERiC^^, What is your Geographic location? is almost noon here in South Carolina.. [15:17] cbarrett: you could use `apt-file` to see what provides taht file and maybe reconfigure or reinstall that package? or just extract it and copy out the file? [15:17] Guest36154: Hello from San Diego ! It's almost 8:30AM here [15:18] graps am guessing all Assistors on this chat are global?? [15:18] /etc/shells should be part of the operating system, it would surprise me if it was provided by a package [15:18] cbarrett: i think it's generated at runtime,though, possibly [15:18] I'm not a linux user normally, I only use it at work [15:18] Guest36154: we have users/volunteers all over the world indeed [15:18] hello [15:18] Guest36154: Sure, it could be someone from Georgia in Russia, or Georgia, USA [15:18] hey [15:18] (normalyl I use BSD) [15:19] anyone know where can i find debugging symbols for bash? [15:19] cbarrett: it's part of the login shell setup, so it depends on what you mean by "operating system" :) just spin up a container or VM and copy the file out? [15:19] can someone help me? i downloaded tar.gz file and extracted it. then i made ./configure and more files appear but when i type make nothing happen [15:19] I don't know how to spin up a container or VM, but I will look into that. I know that's something that's done here [15:19] "apt-cache search bash | grep -i dbg" doesn't show anything useful [15:19] Thank you nacc [15:19] kernelus: what are you trying to install exactly [15:20] cbarrett: should be pretty easy to do, i'd think, depending on which ubuntu you're on [15:20] Trusty [15:20] im trying to install Qtractor [15:20] s_n: what version of ubuntu? [15:20] s_n: debugging symbols...try http://bashdb.sourceforge.net/bashdb.html ? [15:20] lotuspsychje, Cannot Emphasize How Seriously Appreciated Assistors are.. am not that much a noob.. just have "17" different Projects going on an Really Hate Win & idiocy F*$( my Part tables up... [15:20] hello,it's long time not float [15:20] and i follow instructions on their website [15:21] Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS [15:21] s_n: have you tried adding the ddebs repository? I'm not sure when that went into effect (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash) [15:21] Guest36154: 1 sec [15:21] eating and stuff [15:21] kernelus: its already in ubuntu repos [15:22] !info qtractor | kernelus [15:22] kernelus: qtractor (source: qtractor): MIDI/Audio multi-track sequencer application. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.7-1build1 (wily), package size 1265 kB, installed size 5295 kB (Only available for linux-any) [15:22] Guest36154: It's a pleasure to help someone [15:22] s_n: also, update to latest asap mate [15:22] !usn | s_n to stay secure [15:22] s_n to stay secure: Please see http://www.ubuntu.com/usn for information about recent Ubuntu security updates. [15:22] s_n: have a look at the information at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debug%20Symbol%20Packages [15:23] ubottu: sure. thanks [15:23] s_n: You can also try github: http://gist.github.com/mikesart/11274126 [15:23] kernelus: hydrogen is very recommended too [15:23] ok, looks like i needs these ddebs repo [15:24] graps, thnks. Hence the question on Geo Location because being up a 3 am for someone local time to them to help us with "issues" is a serious, respectable committment.. [15:24] nacc: I figured it out. Thank you very much for your help [15:24] s_n: however, bash is trivial to build manually if you want to make the debug symbols yourself [15:25] lotuspsychje: i can edit mp3 files in that app? [15:25] cbarrett: np, glad you got yourself up & running [15:25] Guest36154: If it's not an official Ubuntu admin/sysop that's assisting you, though, it may only be free advice...might not help per se [15:25] ERiC^^, can i do the "mount" trick in another shell to force the 17.2 install shell to recognize a storage devicec? [15:25] kernelus: not sure in wich format it saves the project, test out yourself perhaps [15:25] mcphail: true. but i've already have an instance i need to debug [15:26] lotuspsychje: ok thank you [15:27] graps.. Understood, so this is help from knowlegable ones but the accumulated knowledge is the way it works, not the concentration thereof into one or a few brains.. [15:27] Guest36154: Sure :) [15:28] ERiC^^, your skill level seems to be up to this task.. [15:28] Guest36154: ok, imback [15:29] Guest36154: it's already mounted it seems at /media/mint/201 [15:29] ERiC^^,am guessing that there is other steps I need to take.. hence the question of location to know if success is possible [15:29] /Media/Mint/201 on my computer? [15:30] Guest36154: yeah [15:30] in testdisk first try to copy the important files you need to /media/mint/201 [15:31] if that's the other big partition [15:31] ERiC^^, so what is way to force storage to go there? [15:31] Guest36154: in testdisk when you choose where to save [15:31] instead of /home/mint go to /media/.. with the arrows === Stewart is now known as StewNT [15:31] ERiC^^, OHHH use 201 as the location??? [15:31] yes if that's the stuff [15:32] type df -h /media/mint/201 [15:32] to see its size [15:32] ERiC^^, am going to try now [15:33] EriC^^: Guest36154 can also do a df /media/mint/201 to get k-blocks, and can sort it acc. to size [15:35] ERiC^^ n graps, appreciate the quick terms.. am not that up to speed on all the UNIverXe acronyms.. Do I use the df command in a diff term from the testdisk one? [15:36] because I tried to df in that term an it didn't recognoize it [15:36] thanks all [15:37] Guest36154: yeah dont type anything in the testdisk terminal [15:37] Guest36154: You can use df by itself to group partitions/disks according to k-block sizes with the sort command, like df /media/mnt/201 | sort -k [15:38] Guest36154: Or, df /media/mint/201 | sort -nk [15:38] Guest36154: Actually, if the k-block is position 5, then it would be: df /media/mnt/201 | sort -nk 5 [15:39] graps: /join #df [15:39] j/k [15:39] EriC^^: Hehe [15:40] ERiC^^ n graps, "df /media/mint/201" in other term returns "df: 'media/mint/201': No such file or directory". Is my syntax off? I know UNIveXrse is anal about spaces n punctuation marks.. [15:40] Guest36154: you're missing the leading "/" [15:40] type df -h to make it easier to see the size [15:40] Guest36154: Yes, acc. to EriC^^ [15:42] ERiC^^, so "/df/media/mint/201" no spaces?? [15:42] Guest36154: Almost. "df -h /media/mint/201" [15:43] ERiC^^, trying that command now.. [15:44] Guest36154: details matter! if someone already spoonfeeds the command to you dont change it. if it is " a -x /b/d" dont make it "a/x/b/d" that is not working that way. [15:46] ERiC^^, exact command used: df -h /media/mint/201 , as typed into other term returns the complaint that there is no such directory, but the term puts some colons in there.. What is "df" is should i check out the man page? [15:47] Guest36154: You might be mistyping "mnt" versus "mint" [15:48] ERiC^^, used "Q" to get back to original all RED files of the /home/toshibauser files.. am going to try an get to the 500 GB storage device.. [15:49] graps. correct.. did that 2 of the first 5 tries [15:49] ERiC^^, n going to try the "C" multiple files.. [15:50] Guest36154: choose some important file to test [15:50] and save it anywhere [15:52] ERiC^^, not sure which of you suggested arrow keys.. the scroll of the chat is pretty fast an re-reading takes fumble finger miskeys hence my request on how to fix the window previously to just see what was sent to me.. am going to try the selected file trick "C"opy now [15:54] ok === fox9hound is now known as santimendoza [15:56] ERiC^^, have Mulitples Selected(turned Green).. Am trying to find the 500 Gb attached drive.. but it still stops at the "/mint" usb key directory hive [15:57] Guest36154: Did you try searching /media ? [15:58] KiazakiVagyok: Hi [15:58] hi [15:58] Hi. When I run: "du -a . | sort -n -r | head -n 10" with bash I get this error: "sort: Illegal byte sequence" How do I fix this? [15:58] KiazakiVagyok: Are you Hungarian ? [15:59] Yes [15:59] azaz igen :) [15:59] Te? [15:59] And you? [15:59] graps n ERiC^^, when i use arrow keys to go down to the media selection of the "Directory /", it only gives me the options of".."." "mint" "cdrom" [15:59] KiazakiVagyok: Oh, okay. I studied the language a little bit...Magyar, that is [16:00] graps: Hard language :) [16:01] KiazakiVagyok: Yes ! But the women are beautiful ;) [16:01] graps: yes it's true [16:01] Guest36154: if you open the file manager can you see the 500gb in /media/mint? [16:02] graps: where are you living? [16:02] KiazakiVagyok: I'm in San Diego, California. And you ?

[16:02] hey again. i followed http://linux-debugger-bits.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/bash-symbols.html to install these bash dbg symbols. [16:03] ubottu: Sorry :) [16:03] unfortunately it failed to find symbols on sudo apt-get install bash-dbgsym=4.2-5ubuntu3 [16:03] of course i have changed the "4.2-5ubuntu3" bit [16:03] to the currently installed one [16:03] graps: http://mail.bekescsaba.hu:8080/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi?resolution=1024x768&compression=50&dummy=1419059664427 [16:03] here [16:04] KiazakiVagyok: not here please, you can use the offtopic channel [16:04] any ideas how to check if/what symbols are for bash/other pkgs in these ddebs repos? [16:04] ok. [16:04] ERiC^^ YESS, opened it up an have both the 10.04 ised n the 17.2 side of the 500Gb available via the GUI.. How do I find them in the testdisk term, or do i go through the other term??? [16:04] ok. browser does just fine [16:05] s_n: you can use apt-cache search keyword to search packages if you like [16:05] KiazakiVagyok: Thanks, I'll check that out [16:05] Guest36154: ok, in testdisk press c then press left arrow twice [16:05] Guest36154: go to /media/ then the user etc [16:06] kiazakiVagyok: Is it a .avi or .mov file ? [16:06] lotuspsychje: yes. nothing for bash these though [16:06] ERiC^^, the file manager also sees my 256 GB flash i put in to test if i could get to it.. going to do the "arrow twice " now [16:06] s/these/there [16:06] graps: some kind of streaming format. [16:06] just tried to dual boot my new laptop with ubuntu and it's not showing up in the boot menu, what do I need to do for it to show up? [16:07] KiazakiVagyok: Okay. Do you have a question for the Ubuntu channel ? [16:07] ERiC^^, there they are!! but they are all in RED?? Is this how I get the selected files to be copied?? [16:07] Guest36154: just highlight one file, and press "c" ( small case not capital ) [16:08] I'm lost with ACL. It's the first time I use LVM thus I don't know where to set my acl. I've found it's in /etc/mtab but there such a huge number of lines! I don't know how to read this file [16:09] is it my root line? [16:09] My FSTAB has SWAP commented out, with another line indicating CryptSWAP. If I comment out Cryptswap line and uncomment normal SWAP, will my system use SWAP again? [16:09] skinux: it'll probably add another cryptswap entry [16:09] is it 15.10? [16:10] or should I put my acl on fstab? [16:10] hi - will this command - sudo apt-get purge linux-image-x.x.x.x-generic - also remove the dependencies like headers ? [16:10] Egyptian[Web]: no [16:11] EriC^^: how do i tell it to remove dependencies too? [16:11] Egyptian[Web]: no. list the packages with "dpkg -l | grep linux-headers" [16:12] brb [16:12] i am looking to write (or find ) a script that will purge all old kernels [16:12] there was a script somebody posted today [16:12] Egyptian[Web]: you are too late. its already done :) [16:13] Egyptian[Web]: what ubuntu are you on? [16:13] Egyptian[Web]: this is a bash one-liner: dpkg --list | grep 'linux-headers' | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -V | sed -n '/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\([0-9.-]*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/q;p' | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge [16:14] anyone have issues updating libpam-runtime on 14.04? getting a dpkg error [16:14] with changing linux-headers to linux-image it will work for kernels [16:14] EriC^^: Then how do I get Ubuntu to start using SWAP again? [16:15] ok [16:15] gstreamer [16:15] I am having trouble running sudo dpkg -i linux-image-3.0.0-rc3-xia_05_amd64.deb I am getting this http://imgur.com/yiyjk8Z [16:15] skinux: why don't you get it working with the cryptswap? [16:15] Only because I don't know how. [16:15] ah, fixed the libpam-runtime package upgrade issue, by just doing sudo apt-get install -f [16:15] just installed unity 8 from apt on 14.04 how do i start using it [16:15] on 14.04 [16:16] jatin30: any reason you install that with a .deb package? [16:16] Why does it even need to encrypt SWAP anyway? [16:16] ERiC^^, SERIOUS question.. In arrowing around i found my Music directory.. over 150 files.. BUT some are in RED, others are in WHITE.. If i cycle through other dir's on the 1 Tb,seeing RED or WHITE.. THE RED signifies files that are somehow harmed or questionable due to the Win 7 attempt?? Therefore the RED ones are still recoverable but A) have to find a place to put them(external or on the flash if I can force testdisk to see it [16:16] AND B)can then work on an obvious(by now) reformat n "Clean install" of Win 7?? [16:16] kll: I am installing linux XIA for which its part of instructions [16:17] skinux, you need encrypt swap partitions ? [16:17] skinux: because if you use swap it will be plaintext and could be used to decrypt your data. [16:17] guys [16:17] how do i start using unity8? [16:17] Guest36154: yeah red usually means they can't be recovered [16:17] i installed using apt-get install unity8 [16:17] jatin30: does "ls -al" list those files? [16:18] k1l: so thats one liner is sufficient to purge kernel and dependencies? what about it picking up linux-generic ? [16:18] with all the dependencies [16:18] toomanyerrors: why didnt you use the lxc install i linked you? [16:18] ERiC^^. for REAL?????? [16:18] i tried [16:18] Guest36154: if you had a way of backing up the entire drive, it would be WAY easier just to let testdisk rewrite the extended partition stuff [16:18] i didnt understand how to [16:19] i dont even know what an lxc is [16:19] basically it will just say this partition is extended and has these 3 partitions in it, and then you can attempt to mount it as usual ( maybe that's all windows did was erase them from the partition table ) [16:19] ERiC^^, is that the "dd" thing you mentioned a whilw age? [16:19] while ago [16:19] Guest36154: but i've never recovered an extended partition like that before and if you could backup that would be better [16:19] Guest36154: yes, exactly [16:19] jatin30: you need to specific the /path/to/the/kernel.deb or you need to go to the folder before with cd. [16:19] dd will copy the entire hdd bit for bit, so you can always get to where you're at right now in case testdisk doesn't work out [16:19] jatin30: it cant find the .deb files, that is the error [16:20] ERiC^^, so what does "dd" stand for and does it "image" the whole Drive or just the data?? [16:20] it images the whole drive, from 0 sector to the last, ( mbr and partition table etc included ) and it doesn't understand data, it just copies at a very low level [16:20] k1l: I just found those files in ls -al in red but just with a better version I'll try to fix that Thanks [16:21] i think it's disk dump or who knows i've heard other names [16:21] yo [16:21] ERi === shuduo is now known as shuduo-afk [16:22] hey bros [16:22] k1l: official ubuntu docs says to use dpkg -l | tail -n +6 | grep -E 'linux-image-[0-9]+' | grep -Fv $(uname -r) ;) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels#Safely_removing_old_kernels [16:23] ERiC^^, (miskey) so thats why the whole other 1 Tb idea could work..If the file is in RED is the "Entry" is still there but the Win 7 attempt may have harmed it somehow?? [16:23] Egyptian[Web]: there are several different ways to script that. [16:24] Egyptian[Web]: there is also purge-old-kernels in bikeshed. that is used since 15.04 as standard on new kernel installs [16:24] Guest36154: i dont know, it could just be a file you deleted long ago [16:24] Guest36154: i doubt windows did anything to the files, i think it just removed the 2 partitions [16:27] ERiC^^,(we were typing at the same time)no the files are current but i just looked through some other entries.. Songs that are definitely seriously different have the same "4096" length... Could that have been Win 7 making a whole bunch of sectors where it doesn't belong,n then trying to use Rescatux to attempt repair of "MBR" [16:27] Guest36154: i'll try to create an extended partition on my hdd and delete it and see if testdisk recovers it or can see it fine [16:27] oh i cant in gpt [16:28] maybe i'll try it in a vm [16:28] Okay, well...how do I get cryptswap to work? [16:29] I read about a bug that makes cryptswap not work after hibernation, which I'm guessing may have happened during the night after I had locked the desktop. [16:29] Has that bug ever been fixed? [16:30] eh? [16:30] my swap is encrypted, works fine [16:30] i can sleep, etc. [16:31] Guest36154: 4096 are usually the size of dirs [16:32] I'm back [16:32] atop says there is 0 SWAP, so obviously it's not workign [16:34] Wait, even with CryptSWAP, shouldn't GPArted recognize the SWAP partition as SWAP? [16:34] skinux, I didn't have to do anything but specify the partiton as swap and [16:34] ERiC^^, (typing at same time again, heheh) Yes that appears to be so because the 4096's have their songs in them, even if they are RED 4096's they still turn WHITE when i check them out.. THought: ubuntu mate n linux mate use different file structures don't they?? i think I used Gparted to make the Linux mate a ext4 n the Ubunt mate a ext3 type, if i remember correct.. I do not comprehend the vm or gpt comments.. are you going to [16:34] do that now or just thinking aloud?? [16:35] Guest36154: ok, i've booted a vm and made some extended partitions [16:35] skinux, and have an fstab entry [16:35] /dev/mapper/xubuntu--vg-swap_1 none swap sw 0 0 [16:35] crond: Well, that's usually how it works, but in my case it doesn't seem ot be working like that [16:35] like such [16:35] crond: you're using encrypted lvm though [16:35] zykotick9, yes [16:35] did i misunderstand the issue? if so, apologies [16:36] Guest36154: ubuntu and mint can both use ext3 or ext4 [16:36] Here's my FSTAB https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/a5dbcc34fd3de20ec8db [16:36] skinux: what is your actual issue? [16:36] skinux, you have the type set to none in your fstab [16:36] is that your intent? [16:36] skinux: i only see you asking about cryptswap since days. so waht is the issue at all? [16:37] er mount point set to none [16:37] gah [16:37] i can't read [16:37] swap has no mount point! [16:37] zykotick9, see comment about being unable to read :P [16:37] Decrypt this: uqNIonxP8TthvadBo/TC+TLhmpOSc0ONxGwNn37V4GpXPK7ZchqlwCVTepXNb+X7 [16:38] Guest36154: this is the extended partition i made http://termbin.com/0vv7 [16:38] crond: but i mean, swap isn't suppose to have a mount point. none is normal. [16:38] Uuuh [16:38] zykotick9, yeah i know, I misread [16:38] I <3 Nmap [16:38] Espiecially [16:38] I just noticed swap has no mount point. It should, I specified it during installation. [16:38] Zenmap with Topology feature ... [16:38] skinux: no [16:38] Guest36154: i'll put some files there, and then delete the 2 partitions and leave the last one so it's like your setup, and see what testdisk finds [16:39] I am unfamiliar with cryptswap, whatever that is, I assumed he meant lvm encrypted swap [16:39] so I'm out [16:39] k1l: No what? [16:39] EriC^^: testdisk ... [16:39] ERiC^^, Apparently you are correct about RED being damaged.. testdisk will not allow a RED entry to turn GREEN.. A WHITE entry anywhere will turn GREEN..(GUEST36154 is now dealing with realization that DATA may really be unrecoverable, even though I can see it on my screen......) [16:39] skinux: swap is not mounted into the system. its used as swap. so "swap" is already the mountpoint [16:39] EriC^^: This's a finnaly ... util which you can use ... you should use it only when nothing helps. [16:39] you generally just mkswap the swap partition and then swapon /dev/sdX [16:39] finally * [16:40] hey, i've added a file containing the word 'manual' to /etc/init.d/mysql, but mysqld still starts at startup? [16:40] V7: like when somebody's partitions get deleted from the partition table? [16:40] Okay, so shouldn't FSTAB list the mountpoint as swap then? [16:40] crond: encrypted-lvm has no problems with hibernate by default, trying to use an encrpted-swap without lvm breaks hibernation by default. [16:40] EriC^^: Uuh ... like this one [16:40] :D [16:40] skinux: there is no mount point for swap [16:40] zykotick9, ahh interesting [16:40] So, then the SWAP line is correct? [16:41] V7: :D [16:41] I was installing linux kernel with XIA stack and I compiled properly but while installing after reboot when I had to select the new kernel I could not find the option. Whats wrong? [16:41] skinux: yes. if that lvm partition is there, then its correct [16:41] Okay, then why does atop say there is 0 swap [16:41] jatin30: run sudo update-grub [16:42] k1l: and then reboot? [16:42] skinux: forget atop for a second, does "free" show numbers beside Swap? [16:42] jatin30: yes. but look at the output in terminal first if it added the kernel [16:42] skinux: "free -m " in a pastebin please [16:43] skinux: and did you create that yourself? or was it the ubuntu installer? [16:43] it showed this http://imgur.com/QKqoxSW . Is it fine ? [16:44] https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/a5dbcc34fd3de20ec8db [16:44] jatin30: it added a 4.5 xia kernel [16:44] jatin30: Yup [16:44] ERiC^^ n V7; guessing you guys all know each other pretty well with other sysdamin types on this chat.. Talk about never even having a clue what another world is like.. I knew chat universe was different, but coming for a visit for help...wow... pastebin, imgur, termbin AN THIS IS ONLY UBUNTLINUNIX GEEK universe!?!?!?? ALL THE OTHER CHATS THAT EXIST???!??!? (Guest36154 quietly experiences a skull top removal moment....) [16:45] skinux: no swap right now 0 0 0 [16:45] Guest36154: O.O [16:46] skinux: and did you create that yourself? or was it the ubuntu installer? [16:46] Guest36154: i put some stuff, deleted them and trying testdisk now [16:46] skinux: could you paste "cat /etc/fstab" we can't see the vim output in your last paste. [16:46] Guest36154: Also ... you could join #crypto : ) There guys will help you ;) [16:47] skinux: and please pastebin /etc/crypttab [16:47] skinux: oh, also could you paste "sudo blkid" as well. [16:48] V7, I thought i knew what technomagery was.... till i rolled a "00".... [16:49] still not working No new option found on reboot [16:50] jatin30: the output you showed lists the 4.5 xia kernel. [16:50] Guest36154: Look ... idk what the problem you have because I've looling in chat when you were here [16:50] I haven't been looking * [16:50] looling away [16:50] k1l: but I also dont understand why its not showing a new option [16:51] So .. I'll help with your trouble if I could, but know I have some troubles too :) [16:51] I'd * [16:51] help you * [16:51] options are the usual ubuntu, advanced options for ubuntu, windows boot manager, system setup . like before [16:51] jatin30: please pastebin the output of "cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg" [16:52] does ubuntu offer some cloud service that allows you to sync your $HOME env|profile across devices? For example, I have certain settings that i set in .vimrc or .bash_profile that are redundant across my pc's and laptops [16:52] wondering if there is a simple way to keep things the same across them [16:52] Hello, I'd like to switch my graphics driver from fglrx to padoka's driver and I'm not sure how to do it properly. Could someone give me a hand? [16:53] unix4linux: https://www.starryhope.com/online-backup-solutions-for-ubuntu-linux/ [16:53] unix4linux: Look at the last one [16:53] V7: have never used chat or imgur or anhy of the stuuf you guys all know so much about.. no hostility is in me.. just recognition of humbleness in the face of a vista through to another universe, that's all.. Oh an trying to recover really important data on two different partitions that I foolishly let Win 7 screw up, should have stayed away [16:53] k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15402697/ [16:54] Guest36154: Did you format them ? [16:54] V7: checking it out [16:54] jatin30: make a "uname -a" please [16:54] where? [16:55] Guest36154: ok testdisk sees them, here's a screenshot [16:55] I'll reconnect now [16:55] V7: no was trying to force Win 7 to stay in the first 210 Gb of a 1Tb multi boot [16:55] jatin30: on that machine you did all that [16:56] Guest36154: http://imgur.com/AZ6pqdk [16:56] http://paste.ubuntu.com/15402707/ [16:56] EriC^^ will try to look at screenshot but not really sure what i will understand.. [16:57] well i created an extended one, with a 900mb and 140mb and 240mb partitions, put data in them all, and deleted the 900 and 140mb one [16:57] so it's like yours exactly [16:57] jatin30: you see? its already running that xia kernel [16:57] i'm going to try to write the partition with testdisk now, let me see if stuff show in red like yours [16:57] join #vertx [16:57] k1l: yeah [16:58] Guest36154: everything shows in red with 0 size [16:58] so that's a good thing [16:58] i'll try to rewrite the partition table now to what it was like [16:58] or best as i can [16:58] what should I do now? I mean what are the possible reasons that option is not coming while rebooting [16:59] uboto [16:59] jatin30: it thinks that kernel is the regular ubuntu kernel. so it lists it as "ubuntu" now [16:59] I'm here [16:59] Guest36154: another screenshot coming up [16:59] jatin30: it should name the kernel version when you use "other options" in grub [17:00] Guest36154: http://imgur.com/uVCMXQB [17:00] Guest36154: this is what i have right now, i used the right arrow to select which partitions to be written, you press right arrow and it switches between P * and L ( primary, primary bootable, logical ) === ara_ is now known as achia [17:00] Guest36154: so in mine there's the primary at the top, and the 3 logical ones which are in the extended partition [17:01] ERiC^^, saw the AZ6pqdk scrnshot, what does it mean?? [17:01] Every day when I turn on my computer it boots all the way up to the password screen, then freezes and I get a purple screen. If I reboot it works. Happens every day. I changed my grub. Any chance it's something I did wrong? I noticed when it boots correctly grub counts down from 30 which isn't what's in my grub file http://kopy.io/BoibC [17:01] V7: do you currently use Deja Dup? [17:01] Guest36154: that's what i first got in testdisk [17:01] jatin30: was your /boot mounted properly when you did update-grub [17:01] Guest36154: check the new screenshot, it's the same but with the partitions selected [17:02] hello [17:02] i'm going to write it now [17:02] Okay, those files are now on Gist https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/a5dbcc34fd3de20ec8db [17:03] I am wondering if I can do "Deja Dup + Google Drive" instead of "Deja Dup + Dropbox" considering gnome 3.18 in Ubuntu 16 will support Google Drive right out of the box [17:03] jushur: How do I check that because I dont know if it was [17:03] unix4linux: #ubuntu+1 i believe? [17:03] Guest36154: ok, i wrote it, it gave me a table with extended partition and them inside, pressed on write, then "y" and rebooting now [17:03] ERiC^^, See what looks similar to my screen is.. Have not been able to get to the flashdrive i inserted in case can't get to the 500 Gb for storage.. is noon here in SC Where are you?am starting to get logy in the brain but think I may have to try backing up when get to NH.. Best friend is burning me copy of Win 7 to take with me.. [17:04] teward: Yea, I can ask there to see if anyone has tried it yet [17:06] Guest36154: everything seems to be there [17:06] Guest36154: it worked [17:06] ERiC^^, chat is seriously fast.. Appreciate help n assistance.. trying to keep up with all that is going on n try to recover..feel like a 5th grader trying to keep up with 8th graders n high schoolers... [17:07] Guest36154: ok, if you can get a 1tb to backup the hdd that'd be great [17:07] your files are probably ok and easily recoverable though even if they were in red [17:07] So, do the files on the Gist give any idea as to why SWAP isn't working? [17:08] to recover them after you backup, you need to select the partitions with "P" and "L" next to them correctly [17:08] ERiC^^, so i ma guessing that the RED entries i will have to go into to get the WHITE files since only the WHITES turn GREEN n put them onto a different device INSIDE the testdisk shell??? [17:08] unix4linux: No, I'm not [17:09] No [17:09] Guest36154: no just backup the hdd in case it goes wrong [17:09] Guest36154: when you write the new partition table everything will just be there [17:09] Hello guys. I think my question is pretty basic. I want to do some troubleshooting on my Ubuntu 14.04 VM so I added 2 new network cards. How can I use them instead of the one that I use know. Basically, how to I make eth2 my primary card instead of eth0? Thanks [17:09] Guest36154: in the screenshot you put http://imgur.com/sk3RwNW [17:10] asterias: there is no such thing as primary card [17:10] the only thing you need to do is setup the IP's and the routing [17:10] Guest36154: the first 2 entries need to have a "P" next to them , skip linux swap, then the last 3 need to have a "L" next to them [17:11] ikonia: thanks. any how-to that you recommend? === dummy is now known as Guest13158 === lolmac is now known as Guest20319 [17:13] zykotick9: I put that information on the Gist. Does it tell you anything? https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/a5dbcc34fd3de20ec8db === Guest13158 is now known as craptalk [17:13] My system has been using too much bandwidth, but my Torrent client is not doing anything, just like Firefox! Is there any application that lets me know which app is consuming my bandwidth? [17:13] ERiC^^, how do I save the entries of this chat for offline use??? it keeps cycling an can't read all that you wrote to be able to do later.. [17:14] skinux: yup ;) was just replying. so your crypttab has a UUID=3f5e7ccb-d3a1-49ab-84c1-50167483ba96 for swap, but we DON'T see that UUID in "blkid" output - i don't think it exists!

[17:16] Guest36154: it's a site [17:17] Why would UUID have been changed? [17:17] ERiC^^, ok is that what I type into the browser? [17:18] skinux: they didn't, you don't have a swap partition right now... just a lot of ntfs/vfat stuff and a ext4 partition... [17:18] Guest36154: look at what ubottu told you right after EriC^^ used that command. [17:19] Pici, thanks, just surprised a 'bot actually can respond in such a way.. [17:19] I don't understand. I had one during installation, but apparently after installation it disappeared...? [17:20] ERiC^^, Your guidance gives me hope I can do this.. Appreciate it.. be well [17:24] Guest36154: no problem [17:24] I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 server and trying to configure iptables to route port 80 for my 4 ip addresses to internal ports and it's not cooperating. I've tried: "sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth0:0 -d 1.2.3.4 --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 1.2.3.4:8000" but it doesn't seem to work.

[17:29] Guys can someone tell me what is the best way to add python libraries on Ubuntu 15.1 LTS? [17:30] Fenix_Pegrino: Ones that aren't provided within our package repositories? Create a virtualenv and install them with pip. [17:31] Pici: yes, mmm. How do I create the virtualenv? [17:32] Pici: Ive heard of pip, but I have never manage to install it :( [17:33] Fenix_Pegrino: install the python-virtualenv package first, and see a tutorial like: http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/ (personally I use virtualenvwrapper to take care of this stuff for me) [17:33] Well, I see blkid doesn't even see the SWAP partition. [17:34] Fenix_Pegrino: if you're using python3, you should already have venv, but honestly I'm not that familiar with its usage. The folks in #python can provide some more help with that. [17:34] Pici: Ill try it, thank you very much!. Perfect Ill connect to that channel also :) [17:36] So, what do I do about blkid not seeing SWAP partition??? [17:37] Hi, i've just connected a USB DAC, and ubuntu shows an additional option "Analogue Output (device name) in sound settings. Now if i click it, it does output through my speakers connected to USB DAC. But 1) i have intermittent cracking noises, seemingly when i do more CPU intensive tasks. 2) Why is it called "Analogue", if its connected to USB?? [17:38] Hi.. since yesterday the update manager (12.04) has been very slow in downloading. About 1/5th of my normal speed. and even visiting ubuntu.com from the browser is very slow. My other downloads have normal speed, howerver. Is something wrong with Canonical's servers? Has anyone else experienced this? [17:38] how can I add an input rule to ufw that specified a source address? the wiki and manpage has examples without any addresses for input, and examples with source and destination for forward [17:38] specifies* [17:38] skinux, is it encrypted swap?

[17:42] vin_: sorry. ipv4 or ipv6? [17:42] I tried adding net.ipv4.tcp_ecn=1 in /etc/sysctl.conf file and then running sysctl -p on my host and guest OS. However when I ping between the two and check using wireshark I'm still seeing Non-ECN transport. [17:42] For ipv4 [17:43] vin_: I believe you can modify that in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn [17:44] vin_: try the following: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn [17:44] I tried echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn but dint work [17:44] yeah [17:44] ah [17:45] vin_: In that case, I'm not sure. Let's wait and see if someone else has an idea. [17:46] hi, i'm having a weird problem with my mouse in ubuntu, it is randomly generating clicks/releases, i have tried leaving the mouse untouched in XEV and it's generating EnterNotify, KeymapNotify, ButtonPress, ButtonRelease, and LeaveNotify events on its own [17:46] does not have any issues on windows, does not happen with other mice that i have [17:47] seems to get worse the longer the system has been booted [17:47] le_pig: Ok.. But is it all that you need to do ? because all over the internet I could find only these two methods. I tried both restarted my systems and tried and also tried without restarting. I'm really not able to figure out what's wrong. Let's wait. [17:47] Can anyone help with this USB DAC issue? > http://pastebin.com/Ez2trXTz [17:49] lle_pig: Is there any basic kernel requirement for it? I'm using 3.13.0-83-generic. [17:49] also happens on debian [17:50] frostschutz: Yes, I believe it is encrypted SWAP [17:50] skinux, what's in /etc/crypttab? [17:51] frostschutz: re-skinux a UUID for swap that isn't seen in "sudo blkid" output :| [17:52] https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/a5dbcc34fd3de20ec8db [17:52] are there any problems with security.ubuntu.com ? [17:52] having issues running apt-get update for the last two days [17:52] just with that mirror [17:52] mark____ I seem to have the same kind of issues [17:53] ugh, config management runs an apt-get update before every run and it's stalling all my config management [17:53] going to have to remove the mirror for now [17:53] how to enable special scandic chars terminal -> ssh -> ubuntu server irssi [17:53] skinux: you have to prepare the swap partition [17:53] skinux, that can't work... parted -l, do you know which partition is supposed to be swap? [17:53] i think i have utc 8 both [17:54] and its only with irssi [17:54] but works with putty -> ssh -> irssi [17:54] Dworf: Maybe #irssi ? [17:54] skinux: there's some bug in the new ubuntu's that keeps erasing the swap's luks header info and there's a fix involving adding an offset=1024 to /etc/crypttab, something along those lines [17:54] I'm using irssi too :) [17:54] Right now [17:54] <3 it [17:54] Dworf: with putty as opposed to another ssh client, you mean? [17:55] skinux: try sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 [17:55] it works with putty -> openssh server -> irssi. but it wont work with ubuntu terminal -> openssh server -> irssi [17:55] skinux, if you know which partition should be swap, you can apply this method (its archlinux wiki but should work similar in ubuntu) https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Swap_encryption#UUID_and_LABEL [17:55] Dworf: change your encoding in ubuntu terminal to utf-8 [17:56] I do know which partition..should be sda8 [17:56] frostschutz: i _believe_ skinux's issue is that there isn't a swap partition. [17:56] Dworf: using what, ordinary Ubuntu with Unity? [17:56] zykotick9: Yes there is, I specified it during installation, and the partition exists, it's just not recognized by Ubuntu [17:57] reisio: yup default ubuntu desktop 15... [17:57] zykotick9, nah, ubuntu installer is just buggy if it creates crypttab swap like that. the entry shown by skinux can not work. (it will work on the first re-boot after install and then not anymore because mkswap destroyed the uuid it was using) [17:58] Okay. So the question is how do I fix the missing UUID [17:58] skinux: your previous paste https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/a5dbcc34fd3de20ec8db seems to contratict what you think. /dev/sda8 doesn't seem to exist. frostschutz [17:59] Ubuntu Disks tool shows it [17:59] zykotick9, it does not exist in blkid output if it has no uuid and nothing (plain encrypted random data) [17:59] I really want to debug why upgraded chrome hangs constantly, but I'm no good at identifying which thread is stuck [18:00] frostschutz: my lvm encrypted swap shows up, but you're right that does have a UUID... that cryptswap does break - so i guess you're right... /dev/mapper/jen--vg-swap_1: UUID="6c2af170-ee5d-4b29-a17f-e2ab14295328" TYPE="swap" [18:01] skinux: it should show up in sudo parted -l , can you paste its output? [18:01] i did some more diggign and it seems to be "button 10" which does not exist on the mouse, afaict, how would i go about disabling button 10 specifically? [18:01] Okay, it's on the Gist now https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/a5dbcc34fd3de20ec8db [18:01] Dworf: what's 'locale' say? [18:01] hi [18:02] parted -l doesn't see sda8, but it's ther [18:02] skinux, 5000MB size as shown in your output? [18:03] Yes, that would be the size of SWAP [18:03] skinux, ok... well, with GPT, you can use PARTUUID/PARTLABEL (you'd have to set the label/name with parted). Or you can give it a genuine UUID/LABEL with the method shown in the wiki link I gave you, it should work [18:04] How am I supposed to set a UUID on something it doesn't see? [18:04] skinux: so i was mistaken, sorry. there is a sda8... i suspect frostschutz's explanation above might explain why it's not working anymore... best of luck. sidenote, next time you _might_ want to look into encrypted-lvm at install time... [18:04] if I have a file in /path/to/my/file/thefile, how do I make it so, that when I write thefile to console, no matter what dir I am in , it will run thefile? [18:04] skinux, as shown here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Swap_encryption#UUID_and_LABEL [18:04] Can anyone help with this USB DAC issue? > http://pastebin.com/Ez2trXTz [18:04] skinux, (don't do it if you don't understand what it does) [18:05] skinux: the 5gb sda8 is the swap? [18:05] Yes [18:05] skinux: sudo cryptsetup -d /dev/urandom create cryptswap /dev/sda8 [18:05] run that [18:05] I am trying to install via usb to a thinkpad x220 but when I boot I get a blank screen with a blinking cursor. [18:05] skinux: then sudo mkswap -f /dev/mapper/cryptswap -v1 [18:06] then it should have a uuid [18:06] I have tried rewriting the iso to different usbs and used ddrescue and unetbootin [18:06] EriC^^, /dev/mapper/cryptswap would have an uuid, but /dev/sda8 not (because encrypted), so after reboot there will still be - no swap [18:06] I get a different error when I use unetbootin [18:06] Error: /dev/mapper/cryptswap: unrecognized disk label [18:07] pppatrick, enable the usb to boot in th euefi/bios for starters [18:07] Okay. Now I just update it in FSTAB? [18:08] hey guys i'm using ubunti 14.04 how can i get package libre2-dev ? [18:08] skinux: did you run the first cryptsetup command? [18:09] ph88_: not available for 14.04, afaict. [18:09] Erarlo: If it is a program you can put the file in /usr/sbin then can you run your file [18:10] nacc is there any way to make it available ? [18:10] Yes [18:13] ph88_: not officially, maybe someone has put it in a PPA or something, but tha twould be unsupported. Why do you need it? [18:13] it's a dependency for a python thing [18:13] perhaps just compile from source ? [18:13] skinux: type ls -ld /dev/mapper/cryptswap [18:13] is it there? [18:13] ph88_: presumably not a python thing supported in 14.04 [18:14] hi [18:14] ph88_: so you should talk to the maintainer of that python thing [18:14] nacc, what ? [18:14] i have a problem [18:14] lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Mar 16 11:07 /dev/mapper/cryptswap -> ../dm-0 [18:14] ph88_: "it's a dependency for a python thing" ... what python thing? [18:14] i overwrite a file and i need to recover it how can i do that? [18:14] nacc, https://github.com/scrapinghub/portia [18:14] somewhere deep down in the dependency tree [18:14] skinux: ok, try sudo mkswap -f /dev/mapper/cryptswap [18:15] ngreen28: what file? Overwrote how? [18:15] i made a cp __init__.py from one folder to another that already have another __init__.py [18:16] and i want to roll back [18:16] ph88_: are you using vagrant to build it, as suggested? [18:16] ngreen28, that __init__.py was written by you? you have no backup copies, versioning system, ...? [18:16] The command worked, but again, do I need to update FSTAB? [18:16] im using odoo [18:16] nacc, no because vagrant requires virtualbox and i think it's overkill for my raspberry pi [18:16] i think that is generated [18:16] ph88_: what version of ubuntu does their vagrant spawn to build? [18:17] nacc, i don't know i didn't try their vagrant [18:17] skinux: ok, what's in fstab right now? [18:17] The same thing it had before [18:17] i made a cp to a wrong path [18:18] skinux: it's not on the gist [18:18] ngreen28: an overwrote file can't be recalled [18:18] IT is now [18:19] skinux: ok, leave it as is [18:19] is imposible to roll back an cp [18:19] ph88_: i'm not sure i follow. that pacakge doesn't exist in trusty, so i don't know how a package that is in trusty could depend on it. so presumably it (vagrant) installs alternative sources for packages or something [18:19] yes [18:19] skinux: type sudo blkid and get the cryptswap UUID and put it in /etc/crypttab [18:19] ph88_: e.g., they install the nginx repository [18:20] ph88_: and they use pip to install a bunch of stuff [18:20] ph88_: you should just do what they do in their vagrant file, i'd think [18:20] skinux: also add at the end of the line after sha256,offset=1024 [18:20] hello [18:20] ph88_: but that has nothing to do with ubuntu at this point [18:20] I am trying to downgrade my subversion from 1.8.3 to 1.7 [18:20] nacc, i don't know, i skipped vagrant and used virtualenv debian installation instructions https://portia.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation.html#debian [18:21] ph88_: did you run their provision.sh script? again, this is no longer an ubuntu question, really ... [18:21] Okay, FSTAB is updated. So, will it automatically start using SWAP? [18:21] I found an ans on askubuntu to edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list but its a read only file. how do I edit that [18:21] nacc, yes of course .. it exited on error because libre2-dev could not be found by apt-get [18:21] skinux, no, it won't. [18:21] skinux: you mean crypttab? [18:22] It doesn't have sha256 [18:22] it does in the gist [18:22] Or do I need to add that part too? [18:22] skinux, read the link I gave you, that's how it works. what eric told you is not how it works. good luck ;) [18:22] frostschutz: lolz [18:22] Has anyone determined how to run 192khz sampled audio? Currently maxed at 48khz. [18:22] frostschutz: You gave me a link for ARch [18:22] frostschutz: it's a very well-known bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ecryptfs-utils/+bug/953875 [18:22] Launchpad bug 953875 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Trusty) "Encrypted swap no longer mounted at bootup" [High,Triaged] [18:23] ph88_: ph88_ sorry, i don't see it ... i don't see how that's possible with ubuntu sources [18:23] ph88_: if you can reproduce that with just ubuntu sources, you can get help here [18:23] EriC^^, yes, I know. but the (encrypted) UUID still won't be there after reboot so crypttab will still not create a (new) swap with new uuid. you have to put the uuid on the unencrypted device, if anything [18:23] Okay, FSTAB is updated on GIst https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/a5dbcc34fd3de20ec8db [18:23] having some difficulties understanding how to integrate quota with NFS. Basically, I have a directory located at /NFS/users on my server which is auto mounted on my client - now, quota works with filesystems, right? Should I make a partition (virtual perhaps?) and mount it to /NFS/users ? [18:24] frostschutz: http://askubuntu.com/questions/463661/encrypted-swap-partition-for-14-04 [18:24] nacc, what do you mean ubuntu sources ? [18:24] ph88_: official ubuntu repositories [18:25] ph88_: given that package is not in the ubuntu repositories for trusty, i don't know what package you are trying to install that is asking for it; as nothing in the official repositories can be depending on it [18:25] EriC^^, that works by changing UUID= to /dev/sda8 in crypttab. if you ever have another device as sda it might format the wrong thing [18:25] frostschutz: he'll have though the uuid generated by mkswap though in crypttab, won't he? [18:26] EriC^^, after reboot that uuid won't exist anymore, it's encrypted [18:26] cryptsetup > then mkswap on /dev/mapper/cryptswap [18:26] mooner, probly because your soundcard can't process 192khz, most can't ...that's the realm of specialty soundcards like the m-audio audiophile 192 pci [18:26] frostschutz: what usually would decrypt it then? [18:27] EriC^^, it's swap, encrypted with a random key, you don't decrypt it after reboot, you create a new one every time you boot [18:27] @BluesKaj I did enable the usb as first choice in the bios. Why is it booting to a blank screen? [18:27] I am trying to downgrade my subversion from 1.8.3 to 1.7 I found an ans on askubuntu to edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list but its a read only file. how do I edit that [18:28] frostschutz: ok, so you're saying crypttab uses the uuid of sda8 to make it at boot [18:28] EriC^^, you just need a way to identify the correct partition before you create it, for that you can use the device name (dangerous since device names may change), PARTUUID (dangerous if you reuse partition for something else), or find some other way to put an UUID/LABEL on it as shown https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Swap_encryption#UUID_and_LABEL [18:28] jatin30: what version of ubuntu? [18:28] 15.10 [18:29] jatin30: note, downgrading with apt-based packages is never supported, they are one direction only. things could go wrong with this... [18:29] jatin30: 15.10 has 1.8.13 [18:29] What is a LUKS partition? [18:29] jatin30: and no support for anything else [18:29] nacc : yeah sorry I have that [18:29] pppatrick, unetbootin is not a reliable app for iso boot images, try something like startup-disk-creator [18:29] but I really need to downgrade [18:29] what to do [18:30] jatin30: sorry, not supported in 15.10 [18:30] skinux, an encrypted partition with a header that stores the encryption method, a master key used for the actual encryption, and up to 8 passphrases to unlock that master key [18:30] frostschutz: i think it works [18:30] nacc: I cant downgrade in 15.10 ? [18:30] frostschutz: "By default that does not work because dm-crypt and mkswap would simply overwrite any content on that partition; however, it is possible to specify an offset." [18:30] How do I create a LUKS partition? [18:30] nacc, perhaps the package was requested directly ? [18:31] frostschutz: if mkswap made the uuid right now, then next time with crypttab when it uses it, it won't be destroyed? [18:31] jatin30: no, not if you want support [18:31] skinux: man cryptsetup [18:31] EriC^^, ... try it yourself and you will see [18:31] skinux: i think you pretty much have to start from stratch if you want to use LUKS... [18:31] ph88_: i took a quick look at the provision.sh script and didn't see it mentioned. Sorry, don't know why it's happening and it's not supported in Ubuntu (or you should contact the portia folks, as it's not an ubuntu problem, afaics) [18:32] Ofcourse I want LUKS, I want SWAP to work after coming back from suspend, since I'm pretty sure Ubuntu automatically suspends after a while. [18:33] skinux: there is some way (using keys) to get what you currently have, working.... but i honestly don't know the details... [18:33] skinux, for suspend to ram it does not matter; for hibernate (suspend to disk) it's indeed, cryptsetup luksFormat [18:34] skinux: comment out the UUID=e2e3...... swap line in fstab [18:34] Well, which is default? [18:34] skinux, the LUKS header will also have an UUID and thus solve your random key swap issue [18:34] skinux, but it will require you to enter passphrase on boot and resume [18:34] skinux: and in /etc/crypttab add offset=1024 after sha256 [18:35] It would help if there weren't two different people trying to tell me to solve it two different ways [18:35] three? :) [18:36] http://imgur.com/HAR0sZn I am getting this as I did not knew that I cant downgrade in 15.10 . So I cant even install subversion now [18:36] skinux: free tip, document what you want to do. and learn to understand the different ways, before you start. [18:38] ok thx nacc [18:40] I don't know if suspend saves to SWAP or disk...whatever is default. Other then that, I want SWAP to work regardless of suspension or rebooting. [18:40] http://imgur.com/HAR0sZn I am getting this as I did not knew that I cant downgrade in 15.10 . So I cant even install subversion now [18:41] skinux: [18:41] ? [18:42] comment out the line in fstab with uuid=.... swap [18:42] and add offset=1024 after sha256 in /etc/crypttab [18:42] Yeah, I just did that [18:43] ok, type cat /etc/crypttab | nc termbin.com 9999 [18:43] and sudo blkid | nc termbin.com 9999 [18:44] Both are now updated on Gist https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/a5dbcc34fd3de20ec8db [18:45] Hi [18:45] Can someone help me fix this http://imgur.com/qG7Eghp [18:46] hi guys - is anyone using i3 as a wm? [18:46] willwh: I'm sure some one is... [18:46] I have a weird problem, on boot, when I start chrome, it's using some weird ALSA plugin [18:46] whoiam: hi [18:46] willwh: weird? [18:47] close chrome and restart, and it's using pulse, kinda [18:47] reisio: it is rather [18:47] I'm getting total OS hangs/crashes with 16.04 :( [18:47] skinux: ok, type sudo nano /etc/crypttab [18:47] willwh: how's that weird [18:47] Fooster: #ubuntu+1 [18:47] skinux: put UUID=e2e3f0a1-9dc2-41ae-8256-ac03ef2ce662 instead of what it has there [18:48] jatin30: are you intentionally using backports repo? [18:48] skinux: and make the offset without a space, put a comma [18:48] skinux: swap,cipher=aes-cbc-essiv:sha256,offset=1024 [18:48] reisio: on boot; when I start chrome I get this in syslog: [18:48] https://gist.github.com/willwh/21e8dbc94ee754e48b64 === andrea is now known as Guest92942 [18:49] after closing chrome, and reopening, it works fine from then on [18:49] (and I don't see those alsa msgs in syslog) [18:49] what works fine? [18:49] hi [18:50] i can’t use ubuntu server with ubuntu Desktop? [18:50] oo7cat, you probably can [18:50] oh thanks [18:50] :) [18:50] reisio: my sound... see that gist agaib [18:51] I dropped some screenshots [18:51] lightpriest: I didnt get you sorry, can you elaborate [18:51] oo7cat, I use the MAte desktop because I like to remote to a desktop sometimes [18:51] OKay, I've made the changes [18:51] I thought initially, I'd just need like; `exec /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11` in my ~./xinitrc [18:51] MAte? [18:51] but no joy [18:51] compdoc: what is it? [18:51] skinux: ok, try rebooting [18:51] oo7cat: You want to install ubuntu server and use the unity desktop environment? If so, that's easy to do. [18:51] I knew you were gonna say that. [18:52] i want install ubuntu on laptop with usb [18:52] Hi Guys, Can anyone help me with mounting my CIFS shares via AutoFS [18:53] so i don’t know which must i install between server and desktop [18:53] jatin30: in the previous command output (apt update) it shows that it downloads from backport repositories [18:53] oo7cat: You can use the server or desktop ISOs to install, but you should consider which is most appropriate on laptop hardware. [18:53] i don’t know [18:53] oo7cat: Most likely, you want desktop. [18:53] lightpriest: No I am not. I am trying to build ASCEND on my system for which svn is required as they are still using it [18:53] Desktop [18:53] ok thanks le_pig :) [18:54] jatin30: ok, can you open up Software & Updates and check under Updates tab to see if "Unsupported updates" is checked? [18:54] lightpriest: Yes its already checked [18:55] jatin30: ok, if you're not sure what it is, I suggest you uncheck it. It's really unnecessary unless you know you need a specific package from these repos [18:56] lightpriest: Thanks a lot [18:56] jatin30: I would also uncheck "Pre-release updates" [18:56] jatin30: is it working? [18:57] Open the dash and search for Startup Disk Creator. <—— i don’t know what is ‘dash'? [18:57] Rebooted, free -m still says 0 swap [18:57] lightpriest: pre-realeased updates is already unchecked [18:57] jatin30: cool [18:58] skinux: if you check "blkid" or "parted -l" has the swap partition disappeared again? [18:59] www.espiritassevilla.es [18:59] Yup. SWAP is gone again [18:59] skinux: figured... [18:59] How the hell coudl they release a system with this kind of bug [18:59] who know ‘dash’? [18:59] 007cat: press the damn Windows key [19:00] oo7cat: In this context, "dash" is like a "start menu." Click the "swirl" icon at the top of the dock. [19:00] i have no windows key [19:00] Are you using Unity? [19:00] oo7cat: are you installing on a mac?? [19:00] yes [19:00] lightpriest: Its still not working . Same error [19:00] oo7cat: god help you [19:00] but i want install it to laptop directly [19:00] lightpriest: I am not able to install subversion (any version of it) now. What do I do? [19:01] 07cat: Dash is the very top square thing on the left in Unity [19:01] jatin30: ok, it's probably some dependency mixup that apt can't handle. I usually give aptitude a go at it. do you know it? [19:01] lightpriest: NO [19:02] search your computer and online source is ‘dash [19:02] '? [19:02] g [19:02] oo7cat: which operating system are you using right now? [19:02] ubuntu [19:03] 007cat: Yes...you type in the name of whatever program you want. [19:03] lightpriest: Can you tell me how to do it now? [19:03] thanks skinux :) [19:03] skinux: do you have an encrypted home dir? [19:03] jatin30: do what? use aptitude? [19:04] 007cat Google "Ubuntu Dash" and don't come back until you have the first clue. [19:04] EriC^^: i bet skinux does... ;) [19:04] jatin30: you need to install it first, "apt install aptitude" [19:04] Yes, it encrypts home directory. [19:05] * skinux honestly...searched for information about Unity before he installed the damn thing [19:05] hi, how do I instruct apt/dpkg to keep only two linux images installed? [19:05] i90rr: sudo apt-get autoremove [19:05] I'm on trusty and I just upgraded to 3.13.0-83-generic. When I now try to join a VPN, I get "Not authorized to control networking". Also, 'Enable Networking' and 'Enable WiFi' are now grey. They worked yesterday. Does anyone know how to fix this? [19:05] lightpriest: http://imgur.com/4oIg0ZB this is the issue, *while i am installing aptitude* [19:06] How can I install virtualenv in Ubuntu 15.1 I lost the chat :( [19:06] EriC^^: o/ I mean how to configure apt to do that automatically [19:06] lightpriest: done. Now how do I install subversion 1.7 version by aptitude [19:07] i90rr: i dont think you can, unless you run a cron job to run the command, it'll also remove other stuff that aren't needed anymore [19:07] jatin30: "sudo aptitude install subversion" [19:07] jatin30: don't go right ahead with the installation, let me know if it requests too much stuff to change [19:08] EriC^^: that's unexpected. Most other distro let you specify how many kernel images you want installed at the same time [19:08] thanks anyway [19:08] EriC^^: So, do I need to create the LUKS partition and all that? [19:08] lightpriest: I need version 1.7 to install when the latest one for my 15.10 ubuntu is 1.8.13 [19:09] jatin30: ohh, you need an earlier version? [19:09] lightpriest: yes [19:09] jatin30: ok, just a sec [19:10] Is anyone here familiar with overlay(fs)? [19:10] It seems that overlay(fs) allows me to take some directory tree and merge it with another directory tree. [19:10] But, consider the case when I have drive A and drive B and I want to merge those. [19:11] When I save some file to the shared mount point, /mnt/C, does this file get saved to drive A or drive b? [19:11] s/drive b/drive B [19:11] jatin30: are you positive it won't work with 1.8? [19:11] jatin30: it's just that 1.7 is quite old, even older then 14.04's repositories [19:12] lightpriest: yes I had 1.8.13 initially and it failed and I am positive it works with 1.7 as this is a very known problem with 1.8 [19:13] jatin30: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=subversion&exact=1 no version includes 1.7, I guess you'll have to download it from apache's site [19:13] Is a LUKS partition an additional partition, or just a way to have the SWAP partition? [19:15] I also cannot unlock things in system preferences [19:15] sudo still works fine [19:15] skinux: ahhh, i use LUKS for both my regular partitions, like / and for swap... luks is a kernel level encryption system, not swap specific at all. [19:15] Are you telling me I'd have to reinstall my system completely? [19:16] skinux: i'm not sure... properly for sure (as whiping the current drive is suggested)... i'm not sure if you can switch/sub-divide a drive with part LUKS or not... good luck! [19:16] Screw that [19:17] I'll wait until next LTS comes out, should have the bug fixed [19:17] skinux: note, encrypted home is still going to break hibernation... [19:17] nar [19:18] Even with next LTS? Seriously...they haven't fixed the bug YET? [19:19] skinux: it's not really a "bug" i don't think - it's working as designed... i think encrypted-home is a very poor choice myself... you might have differenet results?!?! [19:19] Hell...can I just turn encrypted home off? I mean, I don't need it that bad. [19:20] skinux: i have no idea... [19:22] skinux: fyi, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedHome in the Caveats section at the bottom discusses the hibernation/swap issue... says there is a work-around, but doesn't say what that is?!?! [19:24] skinux: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnableHibernateWithEncryptedSwap Note that guide is quite old though (for 12.04) and I haven't used or thouroughly checked it myself. [19:24] Well, it's pretty retarded to say there is a work-around but not tell what it is. [19:26] hellos. I've had this perenial prolbem with version 13, 14 and now 15. Description: Install from ISO (VM or physical); sudo apt-get update ; reboot ; login -> desktop kicks me out. It feels like .Xauthority is chown'd wrong or with wrong perms, this is not the case - rm .Xauthority and login will recreate it but still kick me out. I've removed/reinstaled lightdm, gdm, and gnome-desktop. Are there a [19:26] ny working suggestions to fix this? Usually I have to cahnge the customization to login on boot, but I forgot this time ... [19:27] and it's all users. [19:27] any help would be great. [19:27] I found a tutorial..I'm just gonna turn it off. [19:28] Does anyone know how to install unionfs? [19:29] I tried apt-get install unionfs.... nothing. [19:29] I don't want unionfs-fuse. [19:29] I'm having problems with FUSE filesystems. [19:34] hey all, can anyone answer some questions I have on my NAT network to a kvm guest?

[19:35] There is a package for it in the main repository. [19:35] If that doesn't make me happy, though, then I'll compile it from source. [19:35] Thanks. [19:42] How does ubuntu determine who can unlock system settings? it is calling me an admin, but won't let me [19:42] breaking this stuff on a normal update is pretty messed up [19:43] its just asking you to unlock your keyring if you have a password prompt [19:44] am i online / [19:44] My Ubuntu laptop keeps crashing and I am not sure why. It is dualbooting with win10, crashes seem to be related to logout/shutdown/restart [19:44] it doesn't prompt me [19:44] fuzzybear3965: Generally for aufa (primarily used for Live environments in the real world, though also somewhat by rkt) you have an upper dir and a lower dir, where the lower dir is read only and all writes are made to the upper dir.

Most of the time system boots without mousepad/keyboard working and just [20:38] shows a windows about running in low-graphics mode. Please advice. [20:41] fuzzybear3965: Generally for aufs (primarily used for Live environments in the real world, though also somewhat by rkt) you have an upper dir and a lower dir, where the lower dir is read only and all writes are made to the upper dir.

[20:51] exnihilo: in *nix perms are local. you need something else for distributed systems. LDAP for instance. You can make the user/group Id values be the same, and things should "just work."

I suppose alternatives for sharing would be samba or NFS [20:54] Well, it says no SWAP again, so obviously I'm gonna have to set it up before it's gonna be working again.

[21:09] Not really === tocard is now known as habeeb [21:09] popey: no it's always open === habeeb is now known as tocard [21:10] bobby_: open ports are not an issue if there is no program listening on a port. === ubuntu is now known as Guest72343 [21:11] k1l: do you know if there are any good gui programs that handle the internal firewall? [21:11] bobby_: most people have a wrong idea about what ports and a firewall do, due to the crappy private firewalls and antivirus software from windows. [21:11] bray90820: Did you look at the link I sent you? If not, please do and I can then clarify anything that you still don't understand. [21:12] bobby_: so you have a program and want to restrict its net access? or what is the usecase? [21:12] k1l: just wanted to close the default smtp port because I don't use it and was wondering if it could be a potential security hazard [21:13] Any SPF incomming spam blocking experts here? [21:13] I've done everything here [21:13] bobby_: no need to close ports if you dont have a program listening there. [21:13] https://iwader.co.uk/post/postfix-implement-spf-record-checking [21:13] bobby_: If you dont use that port, there is no program listening on it - no need to close it. === guampa_ is now known as guampa [21:14] Jordan_U: Now I get it [21:14] Thanks [21:14] but mydomain mails doesn't get picked by policy where as Google spoofs get picked by policy but either case spoofed mails are coming into inbox :( === rifff is now known as neonmud [21:14] ok, so what you guys are saying on ubuntu there is no need to close a port if you're sure a program isn't listening on it, and no need to run any other type of security program to protect yourself from intrustions? [21:15] bobby_: yes. if no program is using the smtp port the other end feels like sending against a wall, anyway. [21:15] hey, anyone got working cracked minecraft? :) [21:16] LuckyTux: wrong channel for that [21:16] !warez | LuckyTux [21:16] LuckyTux: piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music, and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o [21:16] LuckyTux: wrong network for that [21:16] Is there a way to get UUID without waiting for GParted to finish searching for everything? [21:16] skinux: take a look at "sudo blkid". [21:18] Yeah, it doesn't say anything about SWAP [21:18] BEcause swap isnt a filesystem. [21:19] I think now that I've removed home directory encryption, I think I need to reactivate SWAP or whatever. [21:19] bobby_: you could install a firewall like gufw which can block access to the port [21:19] skinux: home encryption doesnt encrypt swap, by default. [21:19] popey: gufw is a frontend for ufw is a frontend for iptables. [21:20] popey: And blocking an unused port is quite pointless. [21:21] actually not [21:21] very much not.. [21:21] One of these days, I might make a forum post of specifics and try to get someone to provide me with a good and strong iptables configuration. [21:22] skinux: that iptabes configuration is to be built upon your secific requirements. [21:22] Ofcourse, issue is I don't think there is any IPTables tools that will make life as easy as any Firewall for Windows. [21:22] ok, ubuntu 15.10, sudo amdconfig --adapter=all --od-getclocks works only for gpu 1, other return "ERROR - Get clocks failed for Adapter X" [21:23] skinux: So did you try ufw or gufw yet? [21:26] I just opened up GUFW [21:27] It had IPTables status as disabled. [21:28] hey guys i m new here [21:28] bekks: thanks. i know. [21:29] I'm guessing there are no software add-ons which would pop-up a permission dialog upon incoming/outgoing connection attempts allowing to either allow or deny it from happening? [21:29] skinux: Correct assumption. [21:29] anyone heard middle by dj snake? [21:30] I'm also curious how easily intruders could hack through IPTables when incoming connections are set to deny. [21:30] quit [21:30] exit [21:30] fuck off [21:30] LOL [21:30] ;-) [21:30] blackbeard: /quit [21:31] skinux, when you set your incoming connections to 'deny' then no one can contact your machine on those ports. [21:31] So, how easily? Impossible. [21:32] The only way you're vulnerable is if you are exposing a service with an *open* port and that service is exploitable. [21:32] Well, connections would still receive if they were initiated as outgoing connections...is does still work that way on Linux right? [21:32] That's true, yeah. [21:32] hi all [21:32] skinux: depending on your rules. [21:32] NAT will make sure they can reach you if you first reach out to them. [21:33] Well, currently there are no rules [21:33] need some headsup - can't find package name contains pcs (pacemaker/corosync related) [21:34] But, uninitiated contact won't expose you to any danger. [21:34] Of course, if you go to givemavirus.com, you can get hacked, but don't go there. [21:35] actually i know of atleast 2 ways to hack a remote host that is not running any services at all, and one of them includes harware manipulation (at isp level). [21:35] not saying linux is vuln atm to that tho. [21:38] bekks: I have incoming set to deny with no "rules" applied. This isn't going to cause issues with Router itself is it? [21:38] what i find kinda funny, is the fact that usability trumps security conserns nowdays. especialy when we know for a fact that there is attacks from states on any connections made between ppl on the internet. [21:39] fuzzybear3965: I use a browser extension which uses all of the safety and reputation services to keep me from going to bad sites. [21:42] dont bother to /msg me, i will not answer to anything then a public channel message. also i do not educate ppl in how to perform exploits. [21:42] skinux: denying traffic without fuurther rules will cause issues. [21:43] hi guys [21:43] hi friends do you know how to install sasm assembly ide [21:44] blackbeard: hi, you got any support question? if not #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chat. [21:45] im newbie here [21:45] borei: did you search with just 'pacemaker' [21:45] well, yes, i have pacemaker installed [21:46] but i don't see any signes that point me that particular package contain pcs [21:46] Anyway. I need to get back to getting SWAP setup again [21:46] skinux: mkswap, swapon. [21:47] I uswed mkswap command earlier I think, but that was for cryptswap. Right now, I can't even find a UUID [21:47] you dont need a UUID, since swap you need to use mkswap for creating a UUID on the swap area. [21:48] Okay. Well, I don't know the command for doing it. [21:48] skinux: I just told you the two commands. [21:48] I know SWAP is sda8...how do I use mkswap with sda8 [21:49] skinux: mkswap --help will tell you. [21:50] I don't know what options I might need, and not sure how to specify size [21:50] skinux: you dont need to specify a size. [21:51] So just mkswap /dev/sda8 ?

I don't care what the UUID is [21:52] -U [21:52] If you dont care about the UUID, you dont need any options at all. [21:53] hi there. I am using 14.04. Many packages are out of date and I need more recent versions for my work [21:53] I'm thinking of updating to 16.04, but I'm a bit unsure about it [21:53] I'm also thinking of updating to 15.10, but somehow, this doesn't seem possible [21:54] arno_: you would need to upgrade to 14.10 then 15.04 then 15.10, while 14.10 and 15.04 are EOL already. [21:54] When trying to update to 14.10 first, I get a warning saying that this version isn't suppored anymore, and then the download fails [21:54] Are older packages kept on any of the mirrors? I need to track down a specific verison of chromium-browser [21:55] maybe the download error is because of something else though [21:55] !eolupdate | NivFreak [21:55] WARNING:root:can not import unity GI cannot import name Unity, introspection typelib not found [21:55] !eolupgrade | NivFreak [21:55] NivFreak: 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 [21:55] (I'm using xubuntu, not ubuntu) [21:55] what ways do I have to update, other than update-manager -d [21:55] Okay. I have SWAP back. [21:55] arno_: which doesnt matter actually - I'd just what for 16.04.1, and update from 14.04 to 16.04.1 [21:55] bekks: I'm specifically looking for an older package for 14.04 that was superceeded [21:55] arno_: never ever user -d [21:55] k1l: thanks [21:56] arno_: do "man apt" in a terminal [21:56] I just copied it from the internet :-) [21:56] jushur: apt-get dist-upgrade works fine? [21:56] arno_: since 14.10 is shut down since some time (and 15.04 is too) you need to change the source.list to be able to upgrade to them. [21:56] arno_: and dont follow guides blindly. [21:56] arno_: stop [21:56] arno_: stop making your situation worse. [21:57] arno_: so why do you want to upgrade to 15.10 right now? [21:58] k1l: I need more recent version of many libraries [21:58] arno_: thing is: you need to do manual changing twice to get to 14.10 and 15.04 and then upgrade to 15.10 since 14.10 and 15.04 are dead already. so IMHO if you waited until now you can wait for july for the 14.04 to 16.04.1 upgrade. [21:59] k1l: I can ask my boss to wait until july to start working on the new project [21:59] But I'm kind of pretty sure he won't really like that idea [21:59] arno_: Then you are better off with cleanly reinstalling 15.10 [22:00] finally, update-manager lets me update directly to 15.10 [22:00] I'll see how it goesa [22:00] arno_: A direct upgrade from 14.04 to 15.10 is NOT supported. [22:00] arno_: It WILL break your system. [22:00] !eolupgrade | arno_ see this howto to change the sources.list to be able to upgrade to 14.10. then do the same for the 15.04 upgrade.

Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [22:01] So, why does update-manager suggests me to do it? [22:01] arno_: Because you messed with some settings. [22:01] arno_: by default, the update-manager suggests LTS releases only. [22:02] I have not setup anything [22:02] I have just run update-manage -p, as is suggested in the manual [22:02] arno_: because 15.10 is the next release that is supported right now. you waited quite a bit long now to leave the LTS path [22:06] what's the file /etc/apt/sources.list.distUpgrade about? [22:06] its a backup [22:11] should I reboot between the different installs (14.10, 15.04 etc)? [22:11] arno_: you have to. === Isla_de_Muerte is now known as NwS === matt_ is now known as Guest12154 [22:23] hey folks, i need an option where i can share a view of my desktop with a windows user to go over some work, i would like to be able to serve it in a browser perhaps? is this possible what options do i have [22:24] one at a time please, your spam flooding me.
