[00:02] so, I followed the proper procedure, and updated from 14.04 to 14.10 [00:02] and my graphical session does not start [00:03] I'm glad I didn't update directly to 15.10. I wonder what a "broken system" would look like === RtMF is now known as QuinnStorm [00:04] arno_: Proprietary graphic's driver was in use ? [00:04] how can I tell if my SSD is using SATA 3? [00:04] I checked the dmesg | grep sata | grep link up [00:04] and that gives three values [00:04] ata1, ata4, and ata3 [00:06] arno_: You are aware that you can not stop at 14.10 ? As that release is EOL . [00:06] Fooster, maybe sudo lshw ? [00:07] Bashing-om: I know. But even if unsupported, wasn't it supposed to at least, start? [00:07] Bashing-om: I don't remember if I was using a proprietary driver [00:07] But my error seems related to this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd-shim/+bug/1359439 [00:07] Launchpad bug 1359439 in systemd-shim (Debian) "[ 7.287663] systemd-logind[1057]: Failed to start unit user@126.service: Unknown unit: user@126.service" [Unknown,New] === PDXLabCoat is now known as Guest31887 [00:08] I'll just install 15.04 and see if that fixes the issue anyway [00:08] arno_: Well ,, in a perfect world .. yeah ... but so much depends on what was installed .. though the system tries to disable 3rd party sources .. there be slips . [00:09] ubuntu upgrades are so painful. That's why I wait until the last moment to do them [00:12] why 15.04 tho [00:13] Myrtti: because 14.10 -> 15.04 -> 15.10 [00:13] Well why not install 15.10 straight up [00:13] Myrtti: because otherwise, my system might be broken [00:13] arno_: Honestly. I have used 'buntu since release 9.04, and have release upgraded many times ,, and upgraded other's sysyems .. I have never ever experienced a problem . BUT, all non-ununtu softeware is reverted to our repo, nothing proprietary is in-use and screen saver is disabled . [00:14] it's at least still supported while 15.04 isn't [00:17] Bashing-om: I don't know how you do. But I don't remember a time when I had *not* a problem. Either the sound stop working, or the double screen. Or teh graphical system does not start again. Or else, apparmor config has changed, and something is broken [00:20] anyway, I stop ranting. It's beer time. Thanks for your help guys. I'll try to fix the issue later [00:26] arno_: K, No matter the what, we are here to help - together we can .

[00:37] My update notification (top right of screen) has a red triangle with an !. I keep showing update/updating but it never goes away. Is there something I can do to fix this?

[00:41] metroins: Show us in a pastebin the outputs of terminal commands : ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' . (greater deatil in terminal ) [00:43] matju: i see [00:43] matju: what apt does, depends on your configuration of apt, but generally i twon't overwrite configuration without user permission [00:43] nacc: ok, thanks [00:46] Bashing-om: Thank you for your help: http://pastebin.com/pkkhZwZt [00:46] metroins: Look'n .

[00:58] nicomachus, hmmmm...been a while now since I made changes and no errors reported when I update my 16.04 every day... could be different in other releases [00:59] squinty: 16.04 may have fixed it, but since 16.04 support isn't in this channel, answers have to be geared to supported releases. [00:59] picarda: probably someone does [01:00] i really dont know: did someone get paid to improve ubuntu? [01:00] ok also have not seen it on my 14.04 unity or xfce releases either [01:00] mrfae: a small group of people, yes [01:01] ok, because I have an issue and looking for a solution..

[01:02] reisio I Know the word repo means repository, but I don't know how to answer that question. [01:03] metroins: looks like it's available, in the universe repo, for Ubuntu 16.04 [01:03] via 'android-sdk' metapackage [01:04] reisio: I am on 14.04 [01:05] reisio: and I tried sudo apt-get install android-sdk with no luck and I checked the application manager as well. [01:06] reisio: I am a 2 or 3 out of 10 on the scale of expertise in linux. [01:06] !info android-sdk wily [01:06] Package android-sdk does not exist in wily [01:06] metroins: its not included in ubuntu versions right now. [01:07] when 16.04 will be released in end of april thats the first one [01:07] Ok. I'll follow the regular steps for installing it on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AndroidSDK [01:08] metroins: if your primary purpose for the OS will be Android development, I'd say install 16.04 [01:08] should be more straightforward than other routes [01:08] metroins: see if that helps: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-make [01:08] reisio: It is not; it is a tertiary goal. [01:08] metroins: is another tertiary goal having an up-to-date Ubuntu? [01:08] because 16.04 would satisfy that as well [01:08] reisio: stability is the primary goal [01:09] metroins: what? Then why're you interested in Android? :p [01:09] * reisio kids (mostly) [01:09] i install ubuntu into laptop, but message show lik this: NO Bootable Device. what’s wrong? === bazhang__ is now known as bazhang [01:10] reisio: I primarily run an education company but I have to port my web platform over to mobile apps. So I've got about a year or so to learn how to do it. [01:10] oo7cat: using... DVD? [01:10] metroins: well, at least that'll be plenty of time :) [01:10] using usb [01:10] metroins: will the app need to connect to your remote server/s? [01:11] oo7cat: how'd you make your usb image? [01:11] http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu [01:11] reisio: [01:11] reisio: yes or no. I was thinking of making it a "shell/portal" to just the web template and having standalone quizzes that do not connect within the app for ease of development. [01:12] oo7cat: that's problematic :) the path of least resistance might be to burn a CD/DVD [01:13] metroins: well, it's not very "hard core", but you might keep in mind that there are a lot of projects out there for taking an existing webUI and generating from that a "standalone app" shell for various mobile OSes [01:13] g'luck [01:13] i don’t know what you mean? reisio [01:13] oo7cat: got a CD/DVD burner? Try using that [01:13] reisio: Thank you. I have been using Ubuntu as my daily driver for 2 months and very much enjoying it. [01:13] oo7cat: what OS are you using to make the usb? [01:14] metroins: and before that, what? [01:14] i use ubuntu to make usbe [01:14] reisio: Windows obviously. Our education software is written in windows applications that we now use in virtualbox [01:14] oo7cat: ok, easiest is to use "dd". that makes sure the "usb maker" doesnt create any problems. [01:15] what is dd? [01:15] * squinty muses "a full size usb maker?" [01:16] oo7cat: a command, be careful if you use it [01:16] oo7cat: "sudo dd if=/path/to/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1M && sync" just make sure sdb is your actual usb drive and not a 2nd harddisk [01:16] metroins: yeah, I imagine that would be a nice change :D [01:16] metroins: run via Wine at all, your apps? [01:16] yeah thanks reisio and k1l [01:16] :) [01:17] reisio: No. Wine has been crashing with Word/Excel; so we just switched to vbox when we need. [01:18] metroins: oh, they utilize word/excel, or you guys do? [01:18] s/they/the apps/ [01:18] metroins: We do. Our program is web-based using SCORM and moodle. [01:20] oh right [01:20] you did say that, heh [01:22] anyone know why texmacs was removed from the repo> [01:22] ?* [01:22] 15.10 [01:22] dm_comp: good question [01:22] I presume just a lack of volunteer manpower [01:23] according the the launchpad.net it still has a maintainer [01:23] i can log in ubuntu on laptop when i use usb.

[01:27] i just don't understand why they would remove it. :( [01:27] there's certainly some up front learning, but I think for the most efficient long-term math notation, you'd want to just learn latex on its own [01:27] dm_comp: the maintainer listed there is not registered on launchpad since 2005 [01:27] dm_comp: it's probably more that nobody had the time to build a deb [01:28] which /could be/ because it's become unmaintained and /hard to build/ [01:28] or it could just mean nobody had time to build it [01:28] you can always build it yourself :) [01:28] and it's not /impossible/ an older .deb would work on your version of Ubuntu [01:29] dm_comp: so it gets pulled from debian. and they only have 2 versions right now. a 1.07 in oldstable. and a 1.99 in rc-buggy [01:29] dm_comp: so i guess there was a very long time no one working on texmacs or there was no debian maintainer [01:29] nah, to many alternatives [01:31] dm_comp: it's easy to see why, jsut look at the publishing hsitory [01:31] "(From Debian) RoQA; orphaned, no activity, blocking transition; Debian bug #797833" [01:31] Debian bug 797833 in ftp.debian.org "RM: texmacs -- RoQA; orphaned, no activity, blocking transition" [Normal,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/797833 [01:31] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texmacs/+publishinghistory [01:32] I just thought it was odd that it wasn't in 15.10 because I remember having it on 14.04 [01:32] there were no new releases form texmacs from 2008 to december 2015.

[02:45] i just purge bumblebee and all of its stuff and i have installed nvidia 340 but system needs a reboot to impliment i believe?

[03:19] Every time I log out, the system will not show up the welcome page anymore, but only a blinking cursor at top-left corner [03:20] so I have to ctrl-alt-del to reboot the system [03:20] what version of ubuntu are you using?

[03:27] vincent_LP, when you get a chance, try blindly typing in your password and hitting enter when you logout.

It looks like I have this lightdm login loop issue and the suggestion is to fix in virtual console http://askubuntu.com/questions/223501/ubuntu-gets-stuck-in-a-login-loop [03:34] vincent_LP, any reason you're stuck on 14.04? it may be a driver issue. You could try booting a live disc of a more recent version of ubuntu and then logging out from the live environment to see if that version would work any better for you. If it does, you should be able to upgrade your current system without losing data [03:38] slakevc, I have some developing tools(xilinx, python...) on this system, not very important but it could take me weeks to find them back if I mess up in upgrading [03:39] slakevc, and my system was fine a week ago in logout [03:39] just two days ago, I found this problem [03:40] vincent_LP, have you done any apt upgrades since then? [03:40] slakevc, yes indeed [03:40] it's two or three days ago [03:41] vincent_LP there should be a log of the apt transactions that you can read with 'less /var/log/apt/history.log', that should help you narrow down the issue unless your hardware is suddenly going bad [03:42] slakevc, thanks, let me check === Mrokii_ is now known as Mrokii [03:50] hello === CQ2 is now known as CQ [04:07] Leave === it is now known as Guest28359 === shuduo-afk is now known as shuduo [04:19] anyone know the preferred incantations for installing the latest Vulkan-capable nvdia driver? I think it's 355.00.29 (or later?) [04:20] I downloaded it from nvidia but it wants me to shut down the X server and I'm not sure how to shut it down without it immediately restarting [04:20] but I thought there might be a preferred way to install it? [04:21] dahlia: Hummm ... what returns ' sudo ubuntu-drivers list ' ? [04:21] hi does anyone have a link to a document with a concise amount of terminal commands? [04:22] dahlia: restarting your display manager should be enough [04:22] Bashing-om: nvidia-352... [04:22] bobby_: commands for doing? [04:23] slappymcfry: restarting it? [04:23] dahlia: yeah, so if you are using gdm, `systemctl restart gdm` [04:23] bobby_: 1) http://www.er.uqam.ca/nobel/r10735/unixcomm.html . [04:24] slappymcfry: will it stay off long enough for me to update the driver from a ssh terminal? [04:25] dahlia: use "stop" instead of "restart", then simply "start" it again [04:25] ah ok [04:25] dahlia: You can try the 352, installing direct from Nvidia is a means of last resort . Maybe some problems with 352 -- could try the 361 driver from our trusted PPA ?? [04:25] but I have kubuntu, is there something besides gdm? [04:25] Bashing-om: I want the Vulkan version [04:26] which I guess is 355+? [04:26] dahlia: Depends which display manager kubuntu uses. [04:27] dahlia: what do you need Vulkan API for? [04:27] to use a program that needs it? [04:27] dahlia: well, of course :) I'm asking out of curiousity [04:28] because I want to start learning vulkan coding [04:29] bobby_: How about : http://linuxcommand.org/ . [04:29] dahlia: be warned that installing a driver from outside the repos may have instability implications.

Silly question. Ubuntu. Of course, if I ask this over on #centos, the answer is going to be Centos, and on #fedora, it will be Fedora Baby!

Thanks for telling me and us that. [06:32] yw [06:34] Kilos, I remember that there is an African tribe that speaks with clicks in their voice. It is a strange language. Are you familiar with it? [06:34] the tribe are the bushmen [06:35] Zulu_Too: the kalahari bushmen, made famous by the 'gods must be crazy' movies [06:35] i cant speak it but it is fascinating to listen to [06:36] some of the other afican languages have the odd click here and there but pure bushman is full of clicks [06:36] I have seen and heard of the tribesmen and I was fascinated by it. It reminded me of Morse Code or digital speaking. I suppose you can say that. : [06:36] yeah [06:37] Zulu_Too try watch the movies Triffid_Hunter mentioned [06:37] Kilos you sound like a very brilliant person. It is a pleasure to meet you. [06:37] no just friendly [06:37] Friendly is good enough. [06:38] i dont often have time to come here and im old so when things get hectic i run [06:38] Kilos are you a computer technician?

I wish I could have all of the good techs here join. It will take time but that is a different story. [06:42] Sudo apt-get update [06:44] sudo apt-get updates almost everything :Not all but from a practical standpoint it updates most things. [06:44] no i mean the application apt [06:44] doesnt matter anymore [06:44] because i wasnt able to install software [06:44] I would like to sudo apt-get my glass of wine hehe Let me see if that works. :) [06:45] lol [06:45] sudo apt-get paycheck [06:45] Zulu_Too: 5 Master degrees? "Huge website"? 1.000USD / hour? [06:45] guys... [06:45] Zulu_Too: you're sounding like a liar to me... [06:48] I don't think anyone cares about your opinion. I always say: " Opinions are like bowel movements. Everyone has one." Take that to the bank. [06:49] Donald Trump didn't get rich listening IRC bandits.

[06:51] :) [06:51] :D [06:51] Big huggs to Kilos. [06:53] Kilos do you want to know something interesting? [06:53] yes please [06:54] help [06:54] I went to a convention and I learned about an African tribe that the men held hands. In America it is a perverted thing. It is an insult to the African tribesmen to not hold hands and be friends. [06:54] guys, seriously. Ubuntu support, please. [06:55] sorry Myrtti_ [06:55] Myrtti, what is your question? [06:57] Myrtti you are more than welcome to ask your question. Please don't feal inhibited? [06:58] i have a question === Myrtti_ is now known as Myrtti [06:58] Ask away Toom. :) [06:59] i had an error [06:59] still havent gotten it resolved [06:59] OK. did you Google it first? [06:59] My computer was working fine yesterday, and now when I turned it on, I can't get past lightdm [06:59] Zulu_Too: for gods sake, you've never been here have you? [06:59] after entering my password it hangs up, but I can get and login to the virtual ttys though [07:00] https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15406399/ [07:00] Mihael what is lightdm? [07:00] lol [07:00] light desktop manager [07:00] Ok. [07:00] mr 5 master degrees. [07:00] That was a bad mistake. [07:00] i had this error https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15406399/ for a long long time [07:00] Good day linux experts and amateurs. [07:00] Zulu_Too Its your login (display) Manager.

[07:01] NeoFrontier: g'day mate [07:01] ty you too [07:01] and i finally found a way to make it work [07:01] but it still isnt [07:02] i ran sudo rm -vf /var/lib/apt/lists/* then sudo apt-get update [07:02] i dont know if it's working [07:03] Anyone knows how to resolve that one? [07:03] The question is this: If you log into your linux box and your screen saver is askew, why not right click on the desktop just as Windows and look at the screen resolution first. I have had that problem. What a pain that was. [07:03] it is updating but dunno if it'll work [07:04] i've updated five times already each time it did it's thing and then said some files were not found they have been ignored or old files used instead [07:04] Toomanyerrors Maybe you are looking in the wrong direction for answers. [07:04] then where must i look Zulu_TOo [07:05] http://askubuntu.com/questions/30072/how-do-i-fix-a-problem-with-mergelist-or-status-file-could-not-be-parsed-err [07:05] mihael_k33hl: Dont know man, what does syslog say? how did it start? did you update or install something that triggered it ? [07:05] That is another story Toomannyerrors. Don't combine one problem with other problems. [07:06] Zulu_Too: You're making any sense. You're mixing together two different people... [07:06] you're not* [07:06] same problem dude [07:06] mergelist error [07:06] toomanyerrors, has asked about one thing and one thing only [07:07] OOOOOOH so Skitoxe is the righteous one here. I didn [07:07] 't know that [07:07] Shall I bow down to you now? [07:07] https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15406399/ please look [07:07] the error message is identical [07:07] file path isnt is all [07:09] I read the pastebin and it doesn't or it is not clear. [07:09] i'm trying to decrypt a pgp message with gpa, when I paste it into the clipboard buffer window and hit 'decrypt' I get a popup window asking for the pgp security code to decrypt it, however the window is totally blank so I can't put anything in, and that's where I'm stuck :/ [07:09] Oh I think it's because my HDD was all used up. df -h says its usage is 100% [07:10] I just don't know why it wouldn't log in though [07:10] mihael_k33hl: lol that's strange. good it worked out though! [07:11] Zulu_Too i didnt get that [07:11] skitoxe: syslog doesn't have anything logged too, neither does lightdm.log [07:11] but someone pleaaase help me out with this [07:12] mihael_k33hl: Wierd. :-/ [07:19] ubuntu 16.04 [07:19] !isitout | toomanyerrors [07:19] toomanyerrors, please see my private message [07:20] well somehow in my feeble failed attempts to get a vulkan driver installed I managed to uninstall kde. I got it working again by installing plasma-desktop and sddm but now many kde apps are gone. Is there some package I can install that gets them all back? (kubuntu 15.10) [07:23] maybe kubuntu-desktop? [07:24] dahlia: kubuntu-desktop is a meta-package that will pull in all those apps, yes [07:25] hateball: ty trying it now [07:25] dahlia: we don't bite over in #kubuntu :) [07:25] it's kinda annoying how aptitude will uninstall 90% of the OS when I tell it to unstall a video driver :/ [07:26] hateball: I was asking in #kubuntu a couple hours go but it seemed dead [07:27] dahlia: No idea what you did, but the nvidia blobs dont have any dependencies that would remove any part of your DE [07:27] So, a guess is you followed some guide of sorts, and asked apt to remove more packages than needed? [07:28] hateball: no, anything I asked it to remove had nvidia in the name [07:28] but kubuntu-desktop looks like it's reinstalling a lot of stuff [07:30] dahlia: you probably messed up the command [07:31] maybe [07:31] but Ive been using aptitude for like 15 years [07:31] well, as long as you didnt use purge, a reinstall should get you back to where you started [07:31] help please? [07:31] !help | toomanyerrors [07:31] toomanyerrors: 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).

I am solo user on my work laptop and I need to add few variables to PATH like JAVA_HOME, etc I've seen people recommend /etc/profiles /etc/environment and .bashrc [07:33] hateball: well kubuntu-desktop looks like it may have fixed it (so far) [07:33] from reading this http://askubuntu.com/questions/275704/how-to-permanently-set-environmental-variables-path-and-m2-home-in-ubuntu-for-ma I have sort of idea about profiles vs environment not sure about bashrc though [07:33] * shrilaxmi away from desk [07:34] btw maybe I am mixing two different things here I want to update $PATH and add new variables too [07:34] merge list error i've been trying to fix for past 5 hrs [07:34] dahlia: Other than for testing there's not much point running the vulkan driver now anyhow [07:34] hateball: unless you want to write vulkan code [07:34] https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15406399/ please look [07:34] dahlia: Once nvidia includes it in their next stable branch it'll end up here https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [07:34] dahlia: Well, yeah that :p [07:35] followed steps from http://askubuntu.com/questions/30072/how-do-i-fix-a-problem-with-mergelist-or-status-file-could-not-be-parsed-err [07:35] ran apt-get update 5 times [07:35] hateball: ya I was referred to that page earlier but it didnt have the driver I need [07:35] 6th run ongoing now [07:36] dahlia: Yeah as I said they only have it some special vulkan testing branch now, for whatever reason. Anyhow, it should be possible to get the vulkan driver working, I've seen people over in #steamlug talking about testing it [07:37] ah ok I was asking in #vulkan and someone said they had it working but I couldnt get the one they used to work [07:37] it messed up my x server and I dont know how to configure it [07:38] merge list error i've been trying to fix for past 5 hrs https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15406399/ please look I followed steps from http://askubuntu.com/questions/30072/how-do-i-fix-a-problem-with-mergelist-or-status-file-could-not-be-parsed-err ALSO ran apt-get update 5 times 6th run ongoing now [07:39] toomanyerrors: You're... using 11.04? [07:39] That's long since EOL [07:43] im using 14.04 [07:44] hateball: why would you think i was using 11.04? [07:46] it works [07:49] what works? [07:51] is there any current way to incrementally upgrade from 14.04 LTS to 15.10 (via 14.10 -> 15.04)? i've changed my update check to 'any new version' and tried to run [do-release-upgrade -d], but i get a 404 [07:51] if i select install over whole disk and select encrypt + use lvm in ubuntu installer does that encrypt /boot ? [07:53] I'm a student, and am put in a position where I have to upgrade a virtual machine installation of ubuntu 8.04 server. I have added the old-releases repositories, and I get this. http://puu.sh/nJA1U/662115d171.png I can't use the cdrom tray. Though I can wget isos and mount them in the virtual machine, I don't think the alternate ISO works for sever, does it? The tool seemed graphical [07:54] hi everyone [07:54] which dot file should i put xmodmap command in ? [07:58] hi guys I screw up my /etc/environment and now I cant log in I want to remove changes I made through recovery mode but its read only I found that if I go to recover mode to root console I can run mount -o remount,rw / to have write rights too [07:58] is mount -o remount,rw / safe to use? [07:59] trudko: yes, but how did you mess things up [07:59] Ben64: I aded some variables and seems like I made some error and I see I am not the only one http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1495732 [08:00] soundscape: 14.04 to 15.10 is not a supported upgrade. 16.04 will be out soon, and you can upgrade straight to that from 14.04 [08:00] Ben64: seems like I changed $PATH and screwed it up [08:00] trudko: so do what the link says and put it in your home, not /etc [08:01] hateball: ok, thanks. explains why when i tried the same thing on another machine, it completely broke the machine ;) [08:01] Ben64: sure but in order to do that I need to have write rights so should I log in and use "mount -o remount,rw /"? [08:01] and then edit /etc/environment [08:01] soundscape: You need to decide if you want to upgrade every 2 years and stick with LTS, or if you want to upgrade every 6-9 months when using non-LTS. Get stuck in between and it's not much fun. [08:03] hateball: stop me if this is the wrong place, but how does the 6month upgrade path usually go for home users? is it a regular problem or should i be *generally* safe? [08:03] in terms of bugs [08:04] You'll be fine, usually. === daniel is now known as Guest88294 [08:04] soundscape: should be fine. it gets less fine when you have PPAs and other unsupported things installed [08:05] soundscape: I've been doing it since 6.06 or so, with a few clean installs here and there due to hardware changes and what not. Shouldnt be a problem. [08:05] awesome, thanks guys [08:06] * shrilaxmi Back to desk [08:09] ok I was able to recover my env , this is content of my /etc/environment something from it I guess PATH caused error which prevented me from logging in http://pastie.org/10763536 [08:11] df [08:14] does ubuntu have any 32 bit images with 32 bit efi bootloader? 15.10 installer and 16.04 live don't have one === jelly-home is now known as jelly [08:15] http://askubuntu.com/questions/392719/32-bit-uefi-boot-support ...and I don't quite understand what to copy from where in these instructions [08:16] hi ...i am beginner for kernal programming ...guys can u help me? [08:17] i am more interested to learn kernal programming... [08:17] tamil just ask, depends on the question [08:18] CQ Probably not, anymore. [08:18] Though I really wouldn't know for sure. [08:18] tamil: You can have a look here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment and perhaps in #ubuntu-devel [08:20] ok...sorry guys. i want a good start on ubuntu....what will i do..? [08:20] thanks...hateball [08:21] tamil: install ubuntu, then https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel or https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile [08:24] Is there a lubuntu channel or would questions for it fall under the general purview of Ubuntu? [08:25] thanks ...first i will finish this... [08:25] Valjan: yes, #lubuntu exists [08:25] Valjan: Depending on the nature of the question you might have more response here, it can be quite idle over there [08:30] It's actually related to Dwarf fortress installation but I've a large suspicion I'm merely missing libraries so I'm going to check that first and get back to you. === rrr_ is now known as bq [08:37] hi all [08:38] i have a stuck on black screen ubuntu since last kernel update on 14.04. Is there a way to get access to the console? [08:38] most likely something went wrong with drivers [08:40] gebbione: I would try to boot an older kernel in the brub menu (same place where you can also boot into recovery mode to get a console). Press and hold the left key right after the bios/uefi biit screen of your computer. [08:42] gebbione: * grub menu, not brub menu ... [08:43] Does anyone know howto (if even possible) to launch a rdesktop session (against a win7 workstation) with a window size of 2560x1440 but the resolution is 1920x1080? I have a 4k-monitor which I've just fontscaling to make it more readable, but rdesktop ignores this so everything is really tiny in the rdesktop-session. [08:43] yes i know what u mean, something really worrying now is that on the screen it tells me the cpu is reporting errors :/ [08:43] I've just = I've used =) [08:44] ok an older kernel works [08:44] now my drivers for the video are gone [08:45] i need to try to re-install something to fix this ... the pc was working perfectly before the kernel update. How can i remove this update permanently ? [08:46] gebbione: not a good idea. start explaining things. what video card, what drivers, how did you install them, what version of linux, anything else relevant [08:48] i have an ATI Radeon HD5770 (or HE checking my hard info) [08:48] i have two screens and it shows only the built-in one [08:49] when i access with the last kernel i don't get to the main machine anymore [08:49] i mean to the login on X [08:49] i experience this http://askubuntu.com/questions/392927/black-screen-with-x-cursor-no-access-to-terminal-from-there [08:50] right now with the previous kernel i am on the Desktop but the monitors are not detected Ben64 === ale is now known as Guest43532 [08:51] i m running ubuntu 14.04 [08:51] the kernel update was the one i got two days ago, latest i would say [08:53] Ben64, on that question on askubuntu someone suggests to re-install ubuntu desktop and then unity [08:53] i asked you four questions, you answered half of one [09:02] hi [09:04] Ben64 GPU is sapphire ati radeon hd5770, i have not installed any particular drivers at the moment lshw -c video says '*-diplay UNCLAIMED ... description VGA compatible', running Ubuntu 14.04 with kernel 3.13.0-83 that gives me the black screen and right now 3.13.0-79 that has given me access to the desktop but the broken video configuration [09:07] I still have a time issue with xfce. I'm in Paris and the current time is 10:05 but the clock displays 11:05. My timezone is set. If I configure the time manually when I reboot it goes back to h+1 oO [09:07] wtf is this? I'm not able to have a correct time, that's sick [09:08] DevAntoine: Do you have a dual boot with windows? I only had that problem with dual boot systems. What time is set in the BIOS? [09:09] DevAntoine: didn't we figure the problem out last night [09:11] minimec: nop. I don't no the time in the bios [09:11] why is background image forgotten always i restart? and firefox needs always restore pages as well, why doesnt all save??? [09:11] Ben64: well, no. I had to set the time manually and today when starting, back to normal [09:12] Dworf: type find ~ ! -user $USER | wc -l [09:12] paste the number it gives here [09:13] I can understand that my time is not good because I can't reach ntp's servers, but I don't understand why when I set the date manually it default to the wrong date after a reboot [09:13] 413 [09:13] Dworf: do you have any special needs for permissions in your home dir? [09:13] like somebody else owning certain files etc? [09:13] no, no encryption [09:13] hmm that might be [09:13] DevAntoine: what is the output of "sudo hwclock --show" [09:14] no i mean like do you have some programs or stuff that has the owner set to someone else [09:14] Ben64: eu. 17 mars 2016 11:15:00 CET .671341 seconds [09:14] ill try copy the pic in myhome folder from hdd [09:14] s/eu./jeu. [09:18] EriC^^: great it works now, i copied the pic to /pictures/ [09:18] but why is firefox always needed to restore pages? [09:19] if you dont have special permissions stuff in your home dir [09:19] do sudo chown $USER: -R ~ [09:19] it'll fix the permissions for all the files [09:20] I totally forgot Dwarf Fortress is 32-bit library dependant [09:22] if hwclock displays a wrong time it means that my bios is set to the wrong time? === vert0let|train is now known as vert0let|cebit [09:23] Ben64 i just restarted my machine and now i get the desktop login but i cannot login anymore with my password, something fails (cannot see a message) and i get back to login screen [09:23] EriC^^: yup but didnt solve firefox problem [09:23] DevAntoine: try... sudo date -s @`wget -q ben64.com/time -O-` [09:25] Dworf: dunno about that [09:25] okay thanks anyway [09:25] np [09:26] Ben64: that works oO [09:26] DevAntoine: good, now "sudo hwclock --show" [09:27] Ben64: that works too [09:27] ok, should be good then [09:28] Ben64: but I wont rely on your website forever [09:28] can you explain me what's going on? [09:28] good, cause i took that page down === zippy is now known as Guest87276 [09:28] so it means that next reboot I'll have that issue again? [09:28] used my site as a sort of time server [09:29] the hwclock and system clocks are both correct now, it shouldn't change unless something else is changing it [09:29] I'm trying to script something that connects to github over ssh. I've tried using "yes" but still it prompts Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? [09:29] How can I automate saying "yes" here? [09:29] rory: you're going to need to be more specific [09:30] OK, the first time you SSH to a box, it gives you a message [09:30] showing the host key and asking if you still want to connect [09:30] Ben64: but why were they wrong and why I couldn't change it? [09:30] It's not acceptable to pause and wait for user input, I need to answer "yes" to this question automatically [09:30] DevAntoine: who knows [09:30] I tried using the "yes" utility piped to the SSH command but it didn't work [09:31] rory: once the key is accepted it won't ask again [09:31] rory: "expect" [09:31] Ben64: well, thanks anyway [09:31] Ben64: Yeah but this is new box every time, it will always ask [09:31] EriC^^: Is that really the only way? [09:32] DevAntoine: Not dualbooting with some other OS that could have changed hwclock ? [09:32] hateball: no, but before I format it had win10 installed [09:32] ssh -oStrictHostKeyChecking=no [09:33] rory: ^ [09:33] personally I would accept it once or manually copy it to known_hosts [09:33] * shrilaxmi away from desk [09:33] since I like to know if the remote host id has changed [09:34] !away > shrilaxmi [09:34] shrilaxmi, please see my private message [09:35] rory: you can also add it to ssh config file if you don't want to enter -o on the command line [09:38] How can I google more about stuff like this: mv "$i" "${i//:/_}". I mean the string operations and stuff. [09:38] I have seen one with a hashtag (which is to remove a prefix) so i suspect there are more [09:38] man bash [09:39] then /## and hit enter [09:39] okay thanks [09:39] m1dnight_: google regex [09:40] I know regexes, but I was wondering if there were other operators. [09:40] also sed/awk tutorials etc [09:40] ah ok :) [09:40] those are bash stuff m1dnight_ [09:40] ${variable} and stuff you can do with it [09:41] got it!

[10:42] how can it not be an upgrade option ? it's just ubuntu, everyone will have it as an upgrade option [10:42] or are they modifying the build ?

[11:03] I want to use open source driver [11:03] momken: fine for 2d desktop use. Any 3d use will struggle. (I last used a 210 about 2 years ago, so the open source drivers might have improved since then for that card) [11:04] because my ubuntu is on an external hdd and I attach that to different hardwares. so I don't want to install drivers specific to a particular system [11:04] gebbione: try dpkg -l | grep "fglrx\|xorg" | nc termbin.com 9999 [11:05] mcphail: Thank you very much [11:05] mcphail: Can I get 2 different outputs out of its vga and dvi connectors at the same time?

[11:08] momken: if you're planning on open source drivers, AMD is well ahead. nVidia is much better for proprietary drivers. But check a site like phoronix for benchmarks before making a purchase. Different generations of AMD cards have different levels of compatibility [11:08] lotuspsychje: What would be your suggestion ?

[11:14] mhahe, i have the same [11:14] worried about what the naming convention will be after 17.04 :-{ [11:14] it is most likely due to kernel update [11:14] gebbione: did you roll back to older kernel version? [11:15] mhahe, do you have a ATI radeon card? [11:15] for the rm command, is it okay to type sudo rm -r ~/path/to/directory? [11:15] Valjan: to remove a directory? yes [11:15] gebbione: I'm not sure, it's a new desktop to me. All I know is it was working and now it isn't. I can check though [11:15] mhahe, not permanently ... i get to login by EriC^^ is checking my logs and packages to see if he spots anything wrong [11:16] llutz: Alright, so only sudo rm -r / would bone you? [11:16] Valjan: Dont type that command in here [11:16] mhahe: did you install a video driver manually? === n00p is now known as naise1 [11:17] Valjan: rm simply does what you tell it to do. if you tell it to do stupid things ... [11:17] hateball: Just trying to understand if you point bash to the proper directory it won't recursively delete root [11:17] mhahe, i know it is really annoying but i looked at lots of ways to fix it and cannot find a solutions. For instance http://askubuntu.com/questions/223501/ubuntu-gets-stuck-in-a-login-loop [11:17] gebbione: My card is GeForce GTX 650 Ti [11:18] gebbione: try sudo apt-get purge fglrx* [11:18] mhahe: were you using nvidia blob or nouveau ? [11:18] next time i see a header update i ll wait a little before doing it [11:18] llutz: Alright, I was looking up how to delete a directory and I dabbled a bit too heavily in sudo commands and emacs, wanted to make sure I wasn't doing anything stupid before going and deleting stuff with sudo commands. [11:19] Valjan: if you are deleting a user directory, why do you even need sudo? [11:19] EriC^^, i can retry that but i doubt it will restore my login capabilities [11:19] i did it before re-installing the proprietary drivers [11:19] should i try again? [11:19] yeah [11:19] Novakyu: The directory was created using sudo emacs, it wasn't user access, only root access. [11:19] then try sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-video{ati,radeon} [11:19] then try sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-video-{ati,radeon} [11:20] typo ^ [11:20] oh. you can always chown to the user first ... but i guess that precaution won't save your root directory, if you accidentally put a space before last /. [11:22] EriC^^, done ... should i run something like xstart or lightdm to test if it worked? [11:22] Thanks for the assistance all. [11:24] gebbione: try sudo service lightdm restart [11:25] gebbione [11:26] sorry but i read only now [11:26] have you tried to use sudo apt-get autoremove name_of_file && sudo apt-get purge name_of_file && sudo apt-get purge -y [11:26] EriC^^, startx got me in but i still have monitors problems ... i.e. it does not detect them. I restarted lightdm and now out at the login screen i am still stuck [11:27] cannot login in again [11:27] wait i m in now [11:27] gebbione: dont use startx. [11:28] i ll check if i can configure the monitors [11:28] which video card you have? [11:28] gebbione: please log into a tty1 and first look what is owned by root in your home "ls -al" [11:28] mh :/ it shows builtin display (ATI Radeon HD5770) [11:28] gebbione maybe you have to install proprietary driver from ubuntu repo [11:29] gebbione time ago i got the same problem with a nvidia video card [11:29] and after i solved [11:29] xsil, EriC^^ just made me uninstall them [11:29] i could not login to the desktop with them [11:30] k1l_, not much owned by root definitely not anything to do with X [11:30] its a nvidia card? [11:30] there's an utility for that... [11:30] no [11:30] gebbione: there is nothing that should besides .gvfs [11:31] which vendor?

When i installed the system in 2011 i didn't do any customisation or installation of extra drivers [11:36] k1l_, i just tried the proprietory [11:36] now when i was stuck [11:38] gebbione this is the solution from the post [11:38] Re: ATI Radeon HD 5770 Issue [11:38] I actually was getting an error with fglrx-amdcccle. Every time I would try install it, I would get a broken package message. What I ended up doing was physicaly deleting the /usr/lib64/fglrx_dri.so and /usr/lib32/fglrx_dri.so. Then I copied over the default xorg.conf so it wouldn't break after removing the drivers. I also removed the /usr/share/ati folder physically as the fglrx-uninstall.sh was not working even when I set the FORCE_ATI_UNINSTALL. After [11:38] this, I rebooted, and was able to install fglrx, fglrx-amdcccle, xserver-xorg-video-radeon from synaptic packager manager. Now I can enable the FGLRX driver and compiz is working fine [11:38] PS Sorry for the lack of detail in the original post... I'm relatively new to Ubuntu and posting in forums.

[11:43] i tried several times, the machine is stuck for a few days now, first i had to change how grub starts by removing quiet splash and putting nomodeset [11:43] now i cannot get the monitors detected [11:43] !ask |IPA [11:43] IPA: 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).

[11:46] and you can add a condition on -name as well, if you want just particular extensions. [11:46] IPA: Are you talking about a specific subfolder, or recursive like novakyu suggests? [11:47] oh ... yeah, mine's recursive. :) [11:47] hateball: i have many sub folder contain the files, not only for the one subfolder [11:47] and search starts from current directory; replace "." with the directory you start searching from. [11:47] hateball: specific i mean [11:48] kgh [11:48] IPA: are you trying to delete all files or only the files that meet a particular criteria? [11:48] novakyu, IPA you probably dont want to search just for "-type f" as that would list and delete any file it finds [11:49] hi.. how to move the left side taskbar to bottom in ubuntu fourteen [11:50] ubuntuNoob, just install cairoDock instead and have 2 [11:50] ubuntuNoob you can't, but you can install cairo-dock [11:50] gebbione was faster [11:50] gebbione: MonkeyDust thanks [11:50] MonkeyDust: which one is best [11:51] ubuntuNoob 'best' depends on what you prefer, personal choice [11:51] hello [11:51] MonkeyDust: thanks..i'll try both :) [11:51] bye [11:52] hateball: after i get the list what should i do ? i'm new user ubuntu [11:53] isnt this driver supposed to do the job - ? http://pastebin.com/WzaupikF [11:53] mhahe, did u get past ur login?

[11:56] really annoying [11:56] IPA: and if you want to remove them as well, "find ~/ -name *.mp4 -delete" [11:56] unknown_1 ask google [11:56] hateball: okay thank you [11:57] MonkeyDust: is it a way around it to install chrome?

I have one server where Ctrl-C exits as sudo su (as though Ctrl-D) was pressed. It happens from 3 different computers running 4 different terminals. I am out of ideas. [13:43] I have hundreds of other servers where this does not happen. And comparing between them, the following match: env, .bashrc, .profile, sudoers, shopt output... I can't figure out why the behavior differs. [13:43] k1l_, i have put the details here http://pastebin.com/w1L6b6EN [13:43] Combatjuan: sudo su is not good. use "sudo -i" if you really need a root shell [13:43] the logs are in the separate files [13:44] Combatjuan what do you expect ctrl-c and ctrl-d to do? [13:44] k1l_: It's the same problem whether using sudo su, sudo -i, or sudo bash [13:45] I expect Ctrl-C to send an interrupt (normally in bash this would clear out the shell and start a new line). I expect Ctrl-D at the prompt to be synomous with typing "exit". [13:45] Instead the both act as "exit". [13:47] If I log directly in as root, Ctrl-C works as expected. Googling this problem has proven exceedingly difficult. :-/ [13:47] gebbione_: ok. i dont see any suspicious there right now. i would suggest to move the xorg.conf, make sure the headers are installed and then test the fglrx with 2 different kenrel versions: "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup" [13:48] how can i switch kernel versions ?

[16:11] lemme search on it [16:11] but yea it's more for ##windows [16:12] what do you call the sudo gui that ubuntu server uses when it asks questions during install. i know its a debian thing i just dont know what [16:12] DirtyCajun gksu [16:13] im sorry i used sudo im so used to typign that. pseudo is what i mean [16:14] DirtyCajun: isn't it just a standard (n)curses screen?

[16:20] numb3r: so other ones output doesnt help you.

[16:20] gopherIRC: buy a cd from canonical :p [16:21] im going to be honest, the sys admin is from my family, so i can exploit it [16:21] anyone? [16:22] gopherIRC: one question for you, are you allowed to do this at all? [16:22] k1l_, I wonder if / partion and /home partition are shown seperatly with fdisk -l [16:22] yes of course, the sis admin is my mother [16:22] whats wrong? [16:22] numb3r: that depends on how you installed it. if you installed it in 2 partitions, then yes [16:22] gopherIRC is this your own pc, or from the enterprise/school you work for [16:22] gopherIRC: and if you have no usb's how was you going to use unetbootin? [16:23] no its my mothers asus sonic master [16:23] gopherIRC then better ask your mom's assistance [16:23] lol [16:25] how ahm, she did the same with my fujistsu notebook :| [16:25] k1l_, I install it in one partition [16:25] gopherIRC, you had better be careful not to lose your mother's and mucking up her installation [16:26] data loss? [16:26] yes [16:27] hi [16:27] can i join an exploit room? [16:28] gopherIRC: you would not be trolling us dont you? [16:28] whats trolling? .. no shes just going to be a bit upset , but she upsets me too all the time, so.. [16:28] hi, is there any way to upgrade from 10.04 to 14.04?

I have the next question: the thing is I have been trying to fix my graphics on Ubuntu 15.1 and I havent been successfull at all. I have asked here and I have consulted different forums around the internet. The reason I want to fix them is because I play Dota2 (Steam game) and every time I play Dota2 it has a terrible fps lag. So I was thinking on installing Wine (even though I dont know if this will fix the problem), but Im worried or [17:22] concern that installing Wine will open vulnerabilities on my system. Can someone help me? [17:22] Marezz: you wont be able to break the ssd dont worry [17:23] pseudonymous: and what pbuilder dist are you using [17:23] Marezz: ubuntu and ssd are great match [17:23] pseudonymous: you build the source package with debuild -S then you put the dsc into pbuilder [17:23] teward: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15408849/ [17:23] thanks [17:24] pseudonymous: it doesn't actually build anything it just creates the necessary files [17:24] trism: I get the same error as posted in (http://paste.ubuntu.com/15408849/) [17:25] pseudonymous: what's your build-depends?

I was under the impression that Build-Depends should install the packages I specify prior to build/clean [17:28] pseudonymous: build-depends is for the actual binary build, i doubt it pulls in the dh requirements.

[17:32] when you run 'debuild -S -sa' on the source directly without sending through pbuilder [17:32] pseudonymous: can you show the whole log? [17:32] ^ that [17:33] teward: I know, debuild is outside pbuild. pbuild also supplied pdebuild which ostensibly works as debuild but within the pbuild chroot env - both yield the same output [17:33] << need to set ubuntu default to load. [17:33] pseudonymous: you haven't given us full logs OR output data [17:33] There is no more than http://paste.ubuntu.com/15408849/ ? [17:34] pseudonymous: install debhelper. `sudo apt-get install debhelper` [17:34] on your computer itself [17:34] I'll be happy to provide whatever - I'm very keen to get this working. [17:34] you probably need other debhelper packages too [17:34] pseudonymous: sudo apt-get install packaging-dev [17:34] make sure you run that too [17:34] teward: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15408932/ <- that's the result of attempting to install debhelper, I already have it [17:35] (that'll pull in a lot of things, including debhelper) [17:35] pseudonymous: alright, well, not sure what to tell you if your system says it can't find dh [17:37] After installing 'packaging-dev' : (http://paste.ubuntu.com/15408951/) same error, 'debuild -S -sa' fails saying dh command isn't found [17:38] pseudonymous: which dh; does it find it? [17:39] Laurenceb_: sorry, i am afk. dont know about that error [17:39] k nvm [17:39] I gave up, will try at the weekend perhaps [17:40] trism: yup, I used the location from that command to surmise which package I should be needing (debhelper) by using 'dpkg -S' afterwards [17:43] GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net trusty InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY C2518248EEA14886 [17:43] pseudonymous: do you get the same thing with: dpkg-buildpackage -S; [17:44] Does anyone know of a guide which starts from scratch using pbuild or sbuild ? Maybe I irrevocably f'ed something up. I'd "just" like to build some packages which I already know how to compile successfully outside of all this packaging stuff [17:45] trism: Yes, I do. I guess I should say that I generated these scripts using "dh_make -f " [17:47] pseudonymous: can you build other packages, maybe: apt-get source hello; cd hellodir; dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -S; [17:47] pseudonymous: at least then we will know if it is a problem with the package or the system (seems like a system problem though) [17:48] trism: yup, that works fine. Issuing the same dpkg-buildpackage command (flags & all) in my mono pkg dir still fails with dh not being found [17:50] pseudonymous: weird, can you pastebin your debian/rules? [17:52] hi [17:53] trism: I hadn't imagined that had such a profound impact (but again, of *course* it does) - I've found the offending line to be "export PATH=$(MONO_PREFIX)/bin:$PATH" in my rules file.. Will have to fix somehow [17:53] trism: thanks for helping me get so far :) [17:53] pseudonymous: np hope you fix it [17:53] Installed Ubuntu to sda6, win10 on sda1 - windows does not load ubuntu. Need solution. [17:54] ' [17:55] Bingo: ill brb will help in a sec [17:56] looking at this efibootmgr now, if i can order the loading, ubuntu or grub will load windows [17:56] !info avr-libc [17:56] avr-libc (source: avr-libc): Standard C library for Atmel AVR development.

[18:00] Oh, hey Eric :p [18:00] EriC^ -- I get windows loading, then I have to get out of windows by troubleshooting selection, or get to firmware via System (Shift/restart) [18:01] Bingo: get firmware and choose ubuntu [18:01] hey Desetude [18:01] Yes I can choose firmware.. but is there Grub can load either from tha start ? [18:02] why's windows do this? Whaa whaaa [18:03] Bingo: can you boot into ubuntu? [18:03] (calms down) I can use bcdedit, right? Or, no?

[18:14] yeah i've used windows my whole life [18:14] lemme see if this reboots.. [18:15] Hi! I'm having trouble with my fresh install of Ubuntu 15.10 [18:15] I can't reach my own session after my first reboot [18:16] gautiergc: what video card? [18:16] When booting, I've a message about fsck from "util-linux" and it is stopped here [18:16] With Ctrl+Alt+F1, i've forced lightdm to start [18:16] if a log into my session, I'm back with the fsck stuff [18:17] but I can use my "guess" account [18:17] @k1l_ I've a Intel chip (i5 4200M + nvidia) [18:18] but, it doesn't seem to be a problem with the graphic... [18:18] where should I look to retrieve the access to my session? [18:19] EriC^ - YOU DID IT! [18:20] I'm here again, sorry [18:20] Yer awesome !! [18:20] !nomodeset | gautiergc_ [18:20] gautiergc_: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [18:20] so, somebody has an idea about my problem? [18:20] Bingo: great [18:20] check /var/log [18:20] be sure the display brightness is up [18:20] Bingo: if you ever need to revert it, sudo efibootmgr -a -b 0002 [18:21] Ok it will revert, eh.. i will read on that efibootmgr program [18:21] @k1l_ nomodeset ? [18:21] hi I just installed a new graphics card along with my old one [18:21] I have a triple monitor set-up and i've connected two of the monitors to the new card [18:22] now the two monitors are displaying fine but the other monitor isn't [18:22] lspci | grep VGA is showing that both graphics cards are available [18:22] gautiergc_: see the bots message [18:22] is there something I need to toggle to get them to work? [18:22] I used to use andr to align the desktops but andr is only showing two monitors atm [18:23] Trinity: oh dear. That can turn out to be difficult. If it's a nvidia/intel combo know that there's all sorts of dirty hacks depending on the laptop vendor to power those screens, some of which won't work under Linux, sadly [18:23] pseudonymous, both are nvidia based gpus [18:23] pseudonymous, and it's a desktop [18:24] Trinity: ah, OK. Well, then I'd ask: Have you played around with nvidia-settings yet ? If using the binary blob then nvidia-settings is basically the only viable way to configure your screens [18:24] pseudonymous, perhaps i'm missing something. the screen is also showing up on nvidia-settings [18:24] I get DFP-0, DFP2 on the added GPU [18:24] and DFP-1 on the old [18:25] i'm starting to suspect that one monitor is being rendered on top of another monitor [18:25] if that's even possible [18:26] Trinity: all screens are turned on and report getting a signal from the computer ? (My screens typically complain and go into energy-saving mode if there's no signal from the computer) [18:27] as dragging a menu I actually get three different screens. (two screens on my right monitor) [18:27] pseudonymous, yes, I believe they are. One is in power saving mode but nvidia-settings reports Signal: TMDS [18:27] wait nvmd, it's missing Connection link: Single and Refresh rate [18:29] hi, on my desktop I get timeouts on certain https websites upon a TLS handshake, like this: https://gist.github.com/tasuk/0cd02c3d019fa2fd31bf [18:29] I've tried connecting to the internet through different means and this persists [18:29] any idea what could be wrong? [18:30] the website does work when connecting eg from a DO droplet [18:30] so probably something on my side, but no idea what [18:30] ah found it [18:30] I had to enbale it in X Server Display Config [18:30] thanks pseudonymous [18:30] Me again, nomodeset wasn't good [18:30] I've the same behavior now with or without it [18:31] I've the ligthdm interface [18:31] when I try to log into my session, I'm redirected to the lightdm page [18:31] guess session is okay [18:31] Trinity: sorry multitasking. But I'm happy you've found it :) [18:31] Oh, and it sounds like a sweet rig, btw. Enjoy it ^^ [18:31] Any idea? [18:31] my battery level is not moving after being charged, it's frozen on charging. How do I restart it? [18:32] UserUS: restart indicator-power [18:33] gautiergc: Authorization to access your desktop ? Do you own ' ls -al .Xauthority ; ls -al .ICEauthority ' ? [18:34] that a 600/root for both [18:34] Now it's just gone? [18:35] UserUS: try again [18:35] I tried 4 times [18:35] should I change with "chown " for both, also with a more permissive chmod? [18:35] guampa: Well ... seems "you" are not authorized .. this is from the ctl+alt+F1 console interface ? And logged into the system with your username, correct ? [18:37] I will try with me as owner and group [18:38] gautiergc: TYhis is only applicable IF logged into the system with "your" username . [18:39] good evening :) [18:39] (solved) changing owner:group by me on both authority file has solved my problem! thank you very much! [18:40] guampa: Great, you do good work ... ( no sudo for a GUI application anymore, right ?) . [18:45] hello [18:46] i have ubuntu server 14.04.4 name resolution problems [18:46] and it's not resolv.conf [18:47] network works, no network manager, ping IP works, ping google.com does not; host, nslookup, dig all work [18:48] unattended updates are enabled, space was low - so it may failed on update [18:48] glit_ch: Check /etc/network/interfaces >> " dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 192.168.1.1 " ? or such ?? [18:48] check [18:49] would strace ping google.com help' [18:49] ? [18:49] glit_ch, by no nm , do you mean it's a static IP on the LAN setup in network interfaces file and you don't use nm [18:50] it's a static yes, but not on LAN, it's on digitalocean [18:50] and no nm installed [18:51] do you have the digital ocean dns IPs in /etc/network/interfaces? [18:52] no, 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 [18:52] or /etc/resolve.conf? [18:53] no digital ocean nameservers ? [18:53] no [18:53] not in resolv.conf, not in e/n/interfaces [18:54] glit_ch: how about you ask their forums. is probably blocked in their firewall. [18:55] so you just periodically use a vps connection, glit_ch? [18:55] no, works on other nodes [18:55] can you check one file for me please? [18:55] -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 44K May 7 2014 ping [18:56] damn, pseudonymous everythign works but I think i've encountered what you were talking about (the tricky part) [18:56] Trinity: oh, what's acting up ? [18:56] basically I have two X Screens now and applications in one XScreen cant be dragged to the other [18:56] it's not broken but a big inconvenience [18:56] Trinity: aaaah. this is one of several modes that the nvidia blob will accept [18:57] pseudonymous, im sorry? is there something I can do about it? [18:58] Trinity: I think you may be running in the wrong display mode. Checkout Xinerama vs Twinview (latter is nvidia-specific). Not sure - will look into it a bit now too [18:59] pseudonymous, mhm I saw Xinerama but it's description didn't seem to completely fit what I am trying to achieve. I'll try it though and let you know what happens [18:59] Trinity: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/304.125/README/configtwinview.html (old docs, but what I came across). Definitely sounds as if you need to enable Twinview mode. The docs mention the alternative being running one X screen per GPU [19:00] @BluesKaj what do you mean? [19:03] glit_ch, is this a permament connection or do you use a client to connect once in a while to edit your files onj the server [19:04] After attempting to remove gnome and revert back to unity, I restarted and now my PC gets stuck on the gnome loading splash screen. I have attempted to go into recovery mode but when trying to remount with rw access, I get the error ''already mounted on / or busy". [19:04] Can anyone help? [19:05] pseudonymous, yea from those docs it seems like Xinerama is what I want. I'll let you know once I get around to trying it [19:05] thanks for all of the help :) === fred_ is now known as Guest45709 [19:05] BluesKaj, it's vps that servers as web server, i check it every now and then [19:05] Desetude: unity & gnome are intimately linked and I've found that the best way to screw over a ubuntu install is to try and run gnome 3 :P That said, I'd research on force-reinstalling the ubuntu-desktop meta-package. If that still fails, you could try creating a new user and seeing if they can log into unity, if yes, you have some broken config files strewn about $HOME [19:05] Trinity: np :) [19:08] pseudonymous: I don't think it's anything to do with the user as it happens before logging in [19:09] Desetude: then you need to start by forcefully reinstalling the ubuntu-desktop metapackage. It should at least return all binaries etc to a pristine state [19:10] pseudonymous: How can I do that? === jelly-home is now known as jelly- [19:11] Desetude: apt-get --reinstall install [19:11] But I still get the error with the remount [19:12] "already mounted on / or busy" [19:14] Desetude: ooooooh, now I finally follow. Sheesh. That I wouldn't know, sorry :/ If I recall correctly, Ubuntu will boot the kernel, then use an initrd (initialise ramdisk) image to load a mini system before mounting the actual drive and passing control onto your install. Sounds like the initrd-part fails to mount properly or something.. === pavlushka_ is now known as pavlushka [19:14] pseudonymous: Any ideas on what I could do? [19:15] Desetude: nope, that's outside my field, sorry. (Well, aside from yelling in here until an actual ubuntu expert walses in). [19:16] Desetude: well.. You *could* write a USB and poke around a little. See if you can mount the disk yourself. And if your $HOME is installed on a separate partition then you could always (from the liveUSB) export a list of installed packages and simply reinstall the system proper. Otherwise you'll have to look at whether or not there's a rescue option on the liveUSB to reinstall the bootloader and initrd [19:17] image [19:18] Hi [19:18] pseudonymous: Could I just use USB to completely reinstall ubuntu? [19:18] Desetude: if your /home partition is separate from the system, then sure, you could format the original install and start over [19:19] Desetude: Do you have a boot install on the USB drive ? [19:19] graps: Yes [19:19] graps: Only recently installed ubuntu [19:20] Desetude: if you do, read answer #2 from (http://askubuntu.com/questions/9135/how-to-backup-settings-and-list-of-installed-packages) - you'll see that this way, you can have your new install reinstall all the software you had on the old :) [Of course, if that ruins the new install, then you're forced to reinstall a third time and manually install the software you need] [19:20] graps: I mean I still have the usb drive to boot onto, the actual install is currently on my usb [19:20] Desetude: I have a boot USB drive too, but still use a disc player (Buffalo Blu-ray drive) to load Ubuntu on ultrabooks/laptops [19:20] Anyway, have to run. Best of luck! [19:21] graps: Does ubuntu usb have an option to completely reinstall ubuntu [19:21] Desetude: I think so, as long as the boot program is on there, and there is a partitioning program there, too [19:21] graps: Hopefully this wont mess with my other partitions [19:22] graps: Dont want ma windows install messing up [19:22] Desetude: You can always abort the partitioniing before committing. I like dual booting Win7 and Ubuntu === CyberJacob is now known as zz_CyberJacob [19:23] Desetude: Did you already use the Windows partitioning program to reserve a linux part ? [19:24] graps: I created an unallocated partition and linux used it [19:24] Desetude: Desetude: Excellent [19:24] graps: So I should just reinstall from USB and I should be fine? [19:25] Desetude: Yes, it should be fine. Did you back up the Linux data files (your stuff) ? [19:25] graps: Haven't put anything on it so don't need to [19:25] graps: Everything like that is on my windows partition [19:26] Desetude: Yep. Just leave the Windows partition alone, and either reformat the /home, /usr, /boot, and other part.s and you'll have a new Linux partition in about 30 minutes or thereabouts [19:27] graps: Alright, I have to go off irc then, thanks for the help [19:27] how to underclock r9 390 with ubuntu commandline?

[19:35] Desetude: Do you want to use Grub ? [19:35] graps: No, it's just looking at some places saying removing linux removes the ability to remove the ability to boot into windows [19:35] graps: But I also have Windows boot manager which shouldnt be removed when removing linux partitions [19:35] Desetude: better reinstall bootmanager/mbr of the remaining OS first, then remove linux-stuff [19:36] Desetude: You can remove the linux part.s with Windows [19:36] graps: Yeah, ik [19:36] llutz: What do you mean [19:36] llutz: I still have the windows boot manager [19:36] Desetude: You have another laptop/PC for linux ?

[20:44] using vsftp and having error 553 [20:44] I read people telling users to chown /www/html with the ftp user, but shouldn't just adding the ftp user to the GROUP that owns /www/html work? [20:44] i.e., all my files from webroot down are www-data:www-data [20:44] shouldn't I just be able to add the ftp user to group www-data and have it work? [20:45] all the posts I see use the chown method, but this doesn't make sense to me (what if you have multiple ftp users?) [20:47] whlai: you should throw away ftp and start using sftp [20:48] i will [20:48] one step at a time [20:48] it's the same package regardless [20:48] whlai: no it isn't. [20:48] vsftp [20:49] http://cheatsheet.logicalwebhost.com/vsftp-sftp-server-howto/ [20:49] whlai: I stand corrected, sorry. [20:49] any word on the 553 error? [20:50] rephrase, I can see drives by connecting in "files" but Sickgear can only see drives attaches to my Ubuntu NAS [20:50] It's BS that I should have to chown as the ftpuser === dado982 is now known as dado981 [20:50] whlai: use ssh instead [20:50] throw away vsftpd [20:50] this is for non-ssh users [20:50] give them access to use sftp, and all your problems will be solved [20:50] ftp is old and crappy [20:50] osmand [20:51] Is a process' RSS (resident set size) only set on creation, or can its value be modified while the process is running? [20:51] it's the same package, like I said. changing ports and protocols isn't going to fix this issue [20:52] whlai: actually, are you sure? I don't see anything in that config that would tell it to use actual sftp connections. [20:52] whlai: and yes, I'd just put your user in that group, assuming that the files have the proper group priveleges. === enzo is now known as Guest82419 [20:53] yeah. you can. i posted link above. what package do you prefer to handle sftp? [20:53] whlai: openssh-server [20:53] ahhhh. GROUP privileges [20:53] as far as i know sftp is on the openssh package and vsftp is another package .... [20:53] i may have facked up there [20:54] right on open-ssh [20:54] that guide is for debian [20:54] kk [20:54] ubuntu / deb pretty much same though [20:54] whlai: that tutorial doesn't even setup ftps, and the example in the second half makes a connection using the standard ftp client on port 21 === tom_ is now known as Guest15883 [20:55] I'll try with open-ssh [20:55] whlai, or if you wand ftp .... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/vsftpd [20:56] totally was premissions [20:56] fyi, ftp w/ ssl can be a real pain to deal with if you're behind a firewall.

I've got a server running Ubuntu 14.04.1 and had to change the password for an ftp user. I could not find a custom PEM password file on this installation, so I changed the password for the system user with the same name. I've restarted vsftpd after that. Unfortunately, vsftpd is no longer working at the moment. If I try to connect (local or from remote doesn't make a difference), it... [21:10] ...immediately hangs after the 'connection established.' message. [21:10] There is no welcome message and/or request for a password. I'm not sure where to look what the issue is. I've checked some log files, but could not find a clue what might be wrong [21:13] django_: no, just run `apt-get update` [21:14] nacc, oh sweet ty :) [21:14] So I am trying to backport something from trusty to precise BUT it depends on a version of dpkg-dev that is higher than the available one in precise. What's the best way to do this? I tried changing it on the .dsc file but didn't work, I guess I need to change the source tar? [21:16] If I request a netstat list there are many entries from vsftp in state 'CLOSE_WAIT', about 200+ entries [21:18] VHeinz that's not an issue. [21:18] the latter point you mean? [21:19] hi, i tried to use my usb installation of ubuntu on a lenovo t61. it says "remove disk or other media. press key to restart". Why? i have tried to re-do the usb with same result. Any tips? === Guest61755 is now known as EriC^^ [21:21] the t61 thinks"No valid operating system. must be some kind of bios setting.. it works on other computer. tried other bootable usbs as well, same result [21:24] but i cant find anything to change that might be interfering... any tips is appreciated [21:28] phenomenon: you need to enable usb-bios and boot from "usb-hdd" in bios-settings === KindOne_ is now known as KindOne [21:33] If I run ps -A I see a ton of vsftpd's: [21:33] 32142 ? 00:00:00 vsftpd [21:33] 32144 ? 00:00:00 vsftpd [21:33] 32146 ? 00:00:00 vsftpd [21:34] and so on, I think there are more than one thousand of them. Are these processes or threads? [21:34] According to the ps documentation these are processes === e is now known as puptime [21:35] llutz, thanks. i have a option called "USB BIOS Support" and its Enabled.

[21:39] shit... sorry, Vheinz, I have to roll out. [21:39] yes for as far as I figured out. But I'm not an expert on this. I expected to see some error in a log pointing to the issue [21:39] i'm pm you contact info and I can help you a lil later though [21:40] ah ok no problem === Luke_ is now known as Luke [21:41] sent you PM VHeinz [21:41] !

[23:43] hey [23:43] i have an ubuntu usb stick for install, how i see quick if it's made of the i386 is or amd-64 [23:43] scalper, and your cpu is ... ? [23:44] i have both [23:44] not in the same ? [23:44] it's an old usb stick i'm not sure anymore what i did download that time [23:44] and where i placed it on [23:44] Hello. I have a problem. I accidentally turned off my wifi in the network icon on the top bar of Ubuntu 15.10. And I'll be damned if I can find a way to turn it back on. Help? [23:44] scalper: if it's old and it has Ubuntu on it, I'd replace what's on it with a more up to date version [23:46] teward: i used it for my laptop which is i386, but i think i made fault by using it for my desktop too, so that's why i wanted to make sure if i used the same i386 version or another version, i don't have the desktop here [23:46] you understand [23:46] scalper: do you know what ubuntu version it is? i would not install an outdated ubuntu at all. get a new iso [23:46] yes i absolute download a new version [23:46] scalper: check what's installed on the laptop then? That will reveal the specific arch. You must still use a newer ISO just in case, and to make sure you're not using an ancient unsupported version [23:46] but i just want to make sure what version i did install before on the desktop (i dont remember if i did make a new usb stick that time or if i did) [23:46] How can I create custom screensaver for xscreensaver? I make a custom.desktop file under /usr/share/applications/screensavers but it doesnt show up in the list to select the screensaver. [23:47] scalper: start the usb and do a "uname -a" [23:47] ok, thanks [23:47] k1l_: in that case, the desktop i would need it do on [23:47] k1l_, also don't forget lsb_release -a [23:47] Blakes5, tried System Settings -> network -> wireless [23:49] squinty, there's nothing there for wireless. Before I accidentally clicked on "Turn off", the wifi adapter showed up. Now it's no where to be found. [23:53] Is it possible to change the shell in ubuntu [23:54] jeff__: You mean the cli shell? chsh is for that. [23:55] Blakes5, see if it shows up with rfkill list wifi and lspci or lsusb maybe? [23:55] Change the de [23:55] jeff__: a DE isnt a shell. [23:55] jeff__: can you give more details? that question is not very specific [23:56] jeff__: Change the DE at the login screen. [23:56] I want to replace unity with KDE [23:56] jeff__: So choose KDE at the login screen. === ray is now known as Guest597 === markc is now known as Guest11994 [23:57] jeff__: so install kde or kubuntu-desktop package. then logout and choose kubuntu on the login screen for that user [23:57] yeah I can see it in lspci. I think I'm just going to remove the nic, physically,boot/shutdown and then re-install it [23:57] Thanks for the help though [23:58] i'm using using ubuntu 14.04. when i plug in my usb internet key, my system does not detect it.. please i need help [23:58] I’ve got to say, as an old guy, this ‘different distros for different de’s has gotten weird. [23:58] casy generally usb network dongles require firmware being installed [23:58] casy before they will be detected [23:59] casy it should still be listed in lsusb though [23:59] casy then find the name of it in lsusb and use that name and do this "dmesg | grep " [23:59] casy you should then see if it's complaining about firmware.
