Just a question, why would running "pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY something" from terminal would work, but the same command in a desktop shortcut wouldn't work? [00:00] not work [00:01] boriseto, set to terminal the login shell emulation [00:01] and will [00:02] mushmouth: awesome WM for touchscreen? O_o [00:02] boriseto: Because exec statements in .desktop files aren't interpreted by a shell. [00:02] punkoivan: if you can get like a hacker screen for it why not [00:02] hacker keyboard* [00:03] daged, so I guess you just want me to change the "Terminal=false" to true? [00:03] Oh no, it's hust useful. [00:03] punkoivan: i connect to my boxes from my phone when im out to do stuff [00:04] daged, nope, it just crashes for some reason. [00:04] mushmouth: for this reason I'm always have laptop :) [00:04] Jordan_U, can you please elaborate a little? Trying to understand pkexec a little more... [00:05] punkoivan: i use my laptop like a desktop :) [00:05] boriseto, try to use link.sh [00:05] for example) [00:05] mushmouth: so, to be honest it's laptop-tablet - old Thinkpad with touch for work and fun. [00:06] And, about phone - I really have Nokia 3410 as my MAIN phone :) [00:06] punkoivan: i prefer keyboard stuff im oldschool :( [00:06] daged, I don't quite understand...

[00:07] boriseto: If you want to run GUI applications as root it's better to install and use gksudo. === dave4925_ is now known as Illumitardi [00:07] Jordan_U: why not just do regular sudo? [00:07] mushmouth: physical keyboard is great and for work only this one. But when I read something or watch films (i.e in trains) I use touch. [00:08] Jordan_U, yeah but gksudo doesn't work for me since the fingerprint sensors installation. Had a long explanation before (maybe you weren't logged in). [00:10] a [00:10] daged, I'm trying to create a shortcut for a script to have it as an icon in the dash but it has to be run with root permissions and can't use gksu since I've installed the fingerprint authorization. [00:11] hmmm [00:11] sorry) [00:11] daged, so it works with the pkexec command, but only when run through terminal, for which I could just sudo it instead... [00:15] Jordan_U, well, found a workaround (that I don't like but it gets it done). Just typed sudo before the script and set terminal to true. I guess it would do for now. :) [00:18] boriseto: have you tried giving setuid permissions on the script [00:24] hi, how can i install missing language(s) for packages from console? settings -> language support reports that there is some missing.

[01:07] oh [01:07] daged: yes, because the uefi needs it. [01:07] nightdemon666: Should now be good . check: ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' .

[01:08] * reisio headdesks [01:08] there is not /boot partition at all. if you use "use whole disk" in the installer there is not seperate /boot partition. /boot will be included in the main partition. [01:08] if I use only Ubuntu can I use ext2 for boot partition? or I don't need separate /boot on my system? [01:08] nightdemon666: No, that is the only change needed . [01:08] daged: you dont need a serperate /boot partition. just keep it that way. thats fine [01:08] trying now, thanks :-) [01:08] k1l_, you right! thanks... === coup_de_shitlord is now known as stqism [01:10] k1l_, and at this fat32 partitions which type of data must be saved?

It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [01:10] nightdemon666: no google-chrome version 49 ?

[01:12] daged: uefi is the new bios. if you use uefi you need some stuff like that partition. if you dont want that you can look if that mainboard got a setting to use bios mode (or called legacy mode) [01:13] oh understand now [01:13] and which mode is better, k1l_? [01:13] daged: both work. [01:13] if I use only Ubuntu on my system [01:14] which is more safe or reliable? [01:14] daged: keep it this way. [01:14] nightdemon666: K. google already had the fix in place for new installs . [01:15] ok [01:15] thank you so much [01:15] bashing-om - well that sucks.... so i have another problem for why its not working :-( [01:15] nightdemon666: " google-chrome-stable " is propprietary, has nothing to do with our repo .. all on Google . [01:16] k1l_, and if I undertsand corectly - that if I want to place /boot point to separate partition I must add one more patition ext2 for example with mounting point /boot, after the uefi fat32 parition [01:16] right& [01:16] ? [01:17] k [01:17] bashing-om - i guess i should uninstall google-chrome-stable that i currently have installed 'via .deb file' and reinstall via the repo that was written into the sources.list file ubottu had me update... [01:18] When i use remote desktop to access my ubuntu machine with xfce I found the super key to be very buggy and the auto-completion function in terminal isn't working either. I ran screencap I found that the os detected right arrow when i pushed down the windows key. However, whenever i try to bind the windows key using the xfce keyboard shortcuts it is detected as SUPER L. [01:18] I'm using xdrp on my ubuntu machine and remote desktop on windows 7, my keyboard is a noppo choc mini 84 key keyboard. [01:19] daged: Yes, but there is no reason for you to create a separate /boot/ partition, so just leave things as they are. [01:20] are you sure?) kk [01:20] nightdemon666: The easiest way I have found to install google-crhome is to download in another browser and hit the install button . I will say that I was able to install on this system via terminal . [01:21] daged: why do you want a seperate /boot partition? [01:21] Jordan_U, I thinked for a situation when logs are grow up and with some manipulations I can rewrite files in /boot [01:21] Hey, I want to install Ubuntu and dual boot, but the windows OS isn't being detected [01:21] daged: that is wrong [01:21] update-initramfs -u for example [01:21] hm [01:22] If I chose "erase disk" what will that erase? [01:22] Optiprism: Maybe, Windows installed EFI, and you are booting the installer in legacy mode ? [01:22] daged: most users are just fine without a seperate /boot [01:22] when I use linux before in past i set separate partitions for each mount point)) [01:23] and I thinked that's good idea)) [01:23] Like does it erase all HDDs or do I get an option of which HDD I can install Ubuntu on to? [01:23] daged: no needed [01:23] *not needed [01:23] Optiprism: Will do as says .. wipe that entire whole disk and install only 'buntu . [01:23] * daged sigh [01:23] ok [01:24] and can I put /home to separate partition or not needed too? [01:24] you can do that. [01:24] thanks) [01:24] bashing-om - just noticed that NONE of what that 'sudo sed...' command i put in didnt even take. looking to fix this... dont know why it didnt really take since i was an admin when i ran it :-/ [01:25] So that option is safe to use if I got an empty HDD I want to install linux on? [01:25] Optiprism: be sure it points to that hdd. and not the one with the installed windows [01:26] Alright thanks [01:26] nightdemon666: That "fix" only applies to installs prior to goofle removeing the 32 bit software off their servers. ' tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ' and see what the google source reads . [01:27] k1l_, and what you thinking about swap partition? if I have 32gb of RAM can I setup OS without swap? [01:27] and use tmpfs in RAM? [01:27] you can. but without swap you cant use hibernation [01:28] hibernation is not needed for my tasks) [01:28] and how I can set the noswap on install? [01:29] just dont create one [01:29] or I must setup with swap first and then disable the swap trought fstab [01:29] oh ok [01:29] and the system will not use swap? [01:29] good thanks [01:29] bashing-om - i already removed 32 bit chrome last night. then i installed chrome 64 bit after that, and it worked, so i was good with that, but i didnt test flash to see if it worked. now i kn ow it doesnt and trying to fix that. now that command i entered was pointless??? i dont have google repo in my sources.list. can you please tell me exactly what repo to enter in that file? thanks in advance :-) [01:30] deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main [01:31] nightdemon666: Ouch ! When you installed chrome, the installer should have made up the source list file . [01:31] nightdemon666: are you sure you talk about chrome or chromium? [01:31] k1l_, thank you very much, now I understand all) [01:32] 10x [01:32] daged: actually, you should also alter vm.swappiness if you're going to go without swap [01:32] reisio, to 0 or 1? [01:32] even if, with 32gb of ram, you would rarely encounter the inevitable consequences should you not [01:32] bashing-om - writing this files manually... [01:32] kil_ chrome. NOT chromium [01:33] daged: I'd say so, yeah [01:33] nightdemon666: than there is something really wrong on your setup. the .deb install should have created those repos. [01:33] ok, shure [01:33] nightdemon666, you can just add that line to Software and Updates and then run sudo apt update etc [01:33] reisio, thanks) [01:33] daged: by default, 60, it is assumed you have swap space, I'm sure you can see [01:34] np mayne [01:34] squinty - which exact line? could you please paste it to this chat, if you dont mind? thank you [01:34] I set it 1 before [01:36] nightdemon666, deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main [01:37] nightdemon666, but as someone already mentioned that source should have been automatically installed when installing chrome.

What it does is if you go over about 1/3 volume it maxes out and starts a stuttering of the volume level and generally cuts audio in and out rapidly? [01:52] It does not affect application like SMplayer or VLC etc. Just the mixer itself. [01:52] Here is what I think is happening. If I open Sound Settings from the Panel, the mixer and levels work perfect. But if I slide the Panel master control beyond 1/2 way is when the pulsing occurs. It is like the Panel slider is operating a different mixer, as the controls do not move in the Sound Settings window? [01:52] Is there more than 1 mixer application that is installed? Do I need to remove one of them? I know generally you have Alsa Mixer and Pulse Audio. Its like I have more than 1 master volume control and they are fighting each other. [01:53] bashing-om - checked it all, its completely up to date and pepper flash is enabled. this makes NO since :-( [01:54] well, after a long hiatus from ahving any linux in the house.. I jsut setup my first linux print server [01:54] got it serving just fine to my mac.. both use cups so its basically a no brainer.. next.. try to share over smb to my windows hosts... [01:55] nightdemon666: Agreed, I do not have a suggestion as I have not had that problem with chrome . [01:55] Using Gadmin-Samba makes sharing your printer pretty easy. Doing it via cups about the same in the web based admin page. Good Luck. [01:55] sad face :-( (for me) [01:56] nightdemon666: are you using other addons with pepperflash (https everywhere) or check other browser settings [01:56] Basing-om are you referrring to the fact that Firefox pepper flash still remains outdated? [01:56] nightdemon666: has problems with flash in firefox cause addons just saying [01:57] *had [01:57] ni3k - i have no problems with flash on firefox. this is strictly a chrome 64 bit running 64 bit ubuntu 14.04 problem with me [01:57] nightdemon666: works here :/ [01:58] It does not work because it is still using an outdated flash version, and Mozilla wont change it. There is hope I was told with much effort you can change it over to NPAPI version of flash that is more updated. I did not bother since Chrome and/or Chromium both have built in flash that does update itself. [01:58] nightdemon666: pepper not 64bit? [01:58] ken.. how well does that work with a headless boxen [01:58] nightdemon666: what version is it? [01:58] kenb: Naww .. working goggle-chrome with flash not responding . Any insight ? [01:58] no x, no lightdm [01:58] kil_ - 21.0.0.182 [01:58] nightdemon666: what? [01:59] shockwave flash 21.0 r0 [01:59] nightdemon666: what version of chrome? and where did you get it from and how did you isntall it? [02:00] kil_ - thats what is showing in about:plugins the version of chrome is 49.0.2623.87 (64 bit) === DrGonzo is now known as Guest42426 [02:01] Oh ok sorry I fell into the middle of the chat. I use Chromium but even it has minor flaws. End up telling it not to Default, but set it as default in preferred applications keeps it working as the default. Kinda like the browser does not sync with the preferred apps. But you put in preferred apps as chromium-browser or for chrome as chrome-stable and then all your web links use it.\ [02:02] nobody seems to have figured that one out either. So I take it you have a flash app that wont run period. [02:03] Getting back to my question, is there more than 1 mixer deamon in Xubuntu? [02:04] nightdemon666: please show the output of "grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | nc termbin.com 9999" === MobGod is now known as Mob [02:05] nightdemon666: after that please show "apt-cache policy pepperflashplugin-nonfree | nc termbin.com 9999" [02:05] http://termbin.com/hemd [02:06] http://termbin.com/il75 [02:06] nonfree ( [02:07] kil_ - i gotta go, but hopefully i'll see whats typed on here when i come back. thank for the help guys :-) [02:07] I personally feel its a glitch in my computers hardware, this being an HP Compaq 5750 system. [02:07] nightdemon666: install pepperflashplugin-nonfree [02:07] ah, i'll do that, thanks [02:08] adobe migrating to html 5 for video (one day flash bs will be history) === dave4925_ is now known as Illumitardi [02:08] kil_ - will this update when flash updates, or do i have to update pepperflash manually??? [02:09] or rather, will it update next time i apt-get update? [02:09] In our lifetime? [02:09] yeah [02:09] nightdemon666: it will update with the system updates [02:09] testing now... [02:11] Lately have found a lot of stuff applications that is are best to get directly from the authors site. Example VirtualBox is outdated in the software center. So is SMplayer which I have fallen in love with. But if you get the DEB version it seems to take care of the problems. [02:11] kil_ - still failed :-( even shutdown chrome and restarted ... BRB [02:13] I suppose when maintainers that are in the thousands, do not maintain then everything falls to the side. [02:14] Still at least it brings freedom to the world of Linux. [02:14] really can't wait for that day... complete flash deprecation [02:15] Thats like saying everyone would burn up their floppy disks because nobody uses them anymore. Sadly no matter what you still have everyone in the world NOT catching up. [02:16] kil_ - ok, well, nevermind, i guess im not leaving :-/ but pepperflash still not working on 64 bit ubuntu with 64 bit chrome (not chromium) [02:16] web video is going html 5 [02:16] So in Xfce panel does the volume slider run a seperate mixer and how do you alter it to use just the Sound Settings mixer instead? [02:17] flash games not so much === Vampire0_ is now known as Vampire0 [02:22] Ok I can see that in alsamixer from terminal is the one that the multimedia keys are running. Again if I set it above 1/3 of the indicators level or above 3/4 in alsamixer it causes the audio to click rapidly. [02:23] What is the other mixer then? The one that appears in Sound Setting is the one I want to use. Do I just uninstall alsamixer to make it work?

[02:28] kenb: As you are getting no response here, might inquire in the #xfce channel . [02:28] cant change alsamixer config? guess unstall maybe worth a shot [02:28] Perhaps. I will go there and ask this. [02:28] wiki ubuntu channels [02:29] i should move too :] [02:34] So, silly question. Is SATA hot plugging supported? [02:34] Because I just plugged in a DVD drive into my box, and it is not seeing the DVD I put into the drive. [02:35] did you reboot [02:35] No, that is why I asked about hot plugging. [02:35] lol oh [02:36] I really would rather not, but if I have to, ok. [02:36] (I have a ton of stuff open) [02:36] you could google it [02:37] OneM_Industries: it is supported, if your mainboard and the drive support it. i just hotswapped some sata hdds. [02:38] Odd. I have hot swapped HDDs before... looks like it is the drive. [02:38] Time to reboot, ah well. [02:39] google saying if sata/esata controller and drive support hot swap [02:39] Well, time to reboot.

[04:50] yes there is a setup file in "XeroxLinuxi686xpxxInstall.tgz" [04:50] bashing-om i fixed the problem. see this link https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/MucV4nJqolw [04:50] bashing-om that link led me to the answer, so, i'd like you to spread the word when someone else has the same problem, and comes in here for help [04:51] nightdemon666: :) Yah .. look'n and aread'n . [04:52] bashing-om basically, what i had to do was delete the FlashPlayer folder in .config/google-chrome and manually update flash in the chrome://components tab in chrome its self. then the latest flash player repopulates and so does PepperFlash folder === test is now known as Guest56371 [04:53] bashing-om, then stupid flash works :-/ wierd... what im hoping wont be an issue though, is every time chrome updates from the repo, and i install that update, that i wont have to go throught that procedure every time [04:55] There is also a Readme file on how to use Setup but does not seem to work [04:56] bashing-om what i found weird also, is that when i tried first renaming the libpepperflash.so file, chrome defaulted to an older flash version. 20.0.0.203. thats when i realized that i had to delete the whole PepperFlash folder alltogether in order to get chrome to update its flash player. i guess the problem is a conflict between baked in pepperflash and what saves to .config/google-chrome/PepperFlash folder? [04:57] Biff1: wich extension does the setup have? [04:57] executable [04:58] Biff1: did you also try the printer wizard? [05:00] The printer is not here, I tried printer wizard when I was connected to it but it didn't work.

[05:08] lotuspsychje - yeah, i dont blame ubuntu... i blame google [05:08] Biff1: think you need to add the printer inside that archive, then let CUPS add it or so [05:10] lotuspsychje - such linux users as google should know that many people use chrome on their linux desktop systems and it 'should' just work. we tend to expect that, but this transition from 32 bit to 64 bit was a disaster === cuteboy is now known as King [05:11] A friend is complaining that doing do-release-upgrade caused his system to become unable to boot [05:11] VoidWhisperer: from wich to wich please?

[06:44] can you please tell me the cmd to fix that [06:44] End goal is I have to set up Linux-XIA in my system [06:45] Its kind of a little assignment for kernel-dev project [06:45] jatin30: Assigned by whom? [06:46] a mentor . I am applying for GSOC 16. thats what [06:48] Jordan_U: could you please tell me the command [06:48] jatin30: OK, I think this discussion is more appropriate for ##linux. Lets move the discussion there. [07:00] Jordan_U : please see ##linux [07:01] jatin30: I already replied to you there.

SHA1 has been deemed insecure since 2005, or am I misinformed? [07:09] i selected the encrypt option during installation but I've never given a second thought to the underlying function until I recently stumbled across cryptsetup documentation and found out that the default hash spec is SHA1 !!! [07:09] i'm aware of cryptsetup faq entry #5.20 >LUKS is broken! It uses SHA-1! ...No, it is not broken.

[07:42] greenerr, no such thing as "best" in any software category. too subjective. install, test and choose for yourself. [07:44] cfhowlett: One that works would be good.

Support ended on February 4, 2016. See !eol, !eolupgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/vivid [08:15] so vivid's repos has probably been moved away recently [08:15] ok i doubt the version of my ubuntu is the problem, this is some bug with apt-get [08:15] false [08:16] no, it means you have 15.04 installed, not 15.10 [08:16] you need to upgrade to 15.10 [08:16] .19.0-31-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 7 15:04:02 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [08:16] your OS is no longer supported. that means ... wait for it .. NO installations. or security for that matter [08:16] ggg: lsb_release -a [08:16] yes 15.04 [08:16] how do i fix apt-get so that it works again? [08:16] support ended last month [08:17] nope. the fix is to install a supported version [08:17] look if you have no idea please dont answer with wrong answers [08:17] !vivid | ggg read this then tell me how I'm wrong [08:17] ggg read this then tell me how I'm wrong: Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) was the 22nd release of Ubuntu. Support ended on February 4, 2016. See !eol, !eolupgrade and http://ubottu.com/y/vivid [08:17] apt-get worked just fine 5min ago and then i added a bunch of repos from some weird website and it doesnt work anymore [08:19] long story short here, ggg. 15.04 is no longer supported in any way, shape or form. Including this IRC channel. the cure is to install a supported version. Your choice. [08:19] ok how do i do that? [08:20] !eolupgrade | ggg [08:20] ggg: 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 [08:20] apt-get dist-upgrade gives me the same problem as i have told you [08:20] it just prints "E: The package rabbitmq-server needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. [08:20] " [08:20] ggg, see the above link? read and follow [08:21] remove the repos you added, then upgrade ggg [08:23] it says "No command 'deb' found, did you mean: [08:23] " [08:23] correct. there is no "deb" command. [08:24] ur link has 'deb' commands in it [08:24] ggg: read again, it's not [08:24] false [08:25] what do you call this? deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ CODENAME main restricted universe multiverse [08:25] ggg: that a line from sources.list, as you've been told in the link above [08:26] ggg, slow down. that's not a command. it's an entry in the sources list. NOT a command [08:27] ggg, note: you have another option. you could torrent the current live versions and clean install rather that EOLupgrade. IMHO, this is a saner option, but YMMV [08:28] I'm trying to run a make script but I'm getting some very vague errors. Let me know if you need the full printout. http://pastebin.com/HhLjJG9k [08:28] im gonna solve this myself, you people are beyond difficult [08:28] wiltors, #bash would know more [08:29] No, ##workingset. #bash doesn't do make [08:32] ok just for your information, the command to solve my problem was: dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq [08:32] rabbitmq-server [08:32] no, it wasnt an EOL issue [08:32] we happy now?

[09:33] DavidFromBE, I do this script regularly as housekeeping for such issues: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15447754/ [09:33] llutz: there's a --purge parameter, i'll look into that [09:33] DavidFromBE: "man dpkg" and read the "-P --purge" description. in summary, "dpkg --purge --pending" [09:34] DavidFromBE: dpkg --purge $(dpkg --get-selections | grep deinstall | cut -f1) [09:34] TJ-: Thanks [09:34] llutz: awesome, thanks [09:34] llutz: that's overkill :D [09:35] TJ-: sometime it needs a hammer to fix stuff [09:35] llutz: but dpkg's "--purge --pending" does that built-in, you don't need to give it a list of packages [09:37] TJ-: well, doesnt work with already removed packages (here) [09:38] TJ-: those aren't "all unpacked but unconfigured packages", which --pending relates to [09:39] why when I type gedit in the launcher I see pics that not related to the gedit [09:40] especialy vulgar pics for genital. corrections [09:44] llutz: that's strange - the policy is supposed to be any package unpacked (e.g. installed) *or* removed but with remaining conf-files [09:45] user3354563456: It will show pictures from your hard disk where the filename has "gedit" in it? [09:46] salve [09:48] TJ-: dpkg 1.17.5ubuntu5.5 trusty won't purge the configs, neither does dpkg in debian. where do you have the "removed but with remaining conf-files" definition from? i only find the unpacked/not installed [09:52] llutz: well, in 'man dpkg' for --purge it says "If -a or --pending is given instead of a package name, then all packages unpacked, but marked to be removed or purged in file /var/lib/dpkg/status, are removed or purged, respectively" [09:53] hey, I'm getting error while updating "W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/universe/binary-amd64/Packages Hash Sum mismatch" [09:53] even changing apt source doesn't help [09:54] any idea? [09:54] dhiaeddine, mirrors do fall behind and behind date. this usually self-corrects. try a different mirror [09:55] TJ-: ah ok, reads a bit different in german for me. I found that now in the english-page. still, doesn't work as expected [09:55] cfhowlett: this is canonical source! I tried other source wit same result [09:57] llutz: the source may have a bug. In src/packages.c::enqueue_pending() in case act_pending: the test "if (pkg->status == PKG_STAT_CONFIGFILES) continue" looks like it should be "!=" [09:57] i've installed the xfonts-terminus package, but the terminus font doesn't show up in font dialogs. any idea why? [09:58] Sonderblade: possibly a font-cache needs rebuilding? [09:59] TJ-: but isn't PKG_STAT_CONFIGFILES the "c" in "rc" and thus correct? "!=" wouldn't match rc then either [10:00] TJ-: shouldn't that happen automatically when you install fonts? [10:01] Sonderblade: did you restart your app after installing the fonts? [10:01] s/app/program/ [10:01] llutz: yes [10:02] llutz: if it were "!=" then it wouldn't hit the 'continue' statement, which means the package is in STAT_CONFIGFILES and should be added to the list of packages to be purged. Right now if a package is in that state it is ignored due to the 'continue' [10:03] llutz: the effect, at first glance, looks to be a package in Remove/Conf-file state can't be purged but a package in Install/Conf-file can be purged [10:05] TJ-: sounds like a bug then.

[10:23] !samba | marduk yes [10:23] marduk yes: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/samba.html [10:23] Running Xubuntu 15.10 and installing Windows 7 in Virtualbox for the first time. It's taking Windows forever to find the updates from a clean install. Is this normal? [10:24] vullum, you'd have to ask ##windows, right?? [10:24] am i obbligate to install samba on desktop? [10:25] marduk, it *might* be possible to configure the print via cups [10:25] !cups [10:25] Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu [10:25] vullum: do you have internet connectivity in windows? [10:25] CUSP will run linux printers, but to coonect to windows yo need samba [10:25] I do have internet connectivity. [10:26] younder, true, but you need not necessarily to connect to windows to use the printer [10:26] In windows(nat). [10:26] vullum: then /join ##windows as cfhowlett said [10:26] vullum, if you have the prints net address, see if you can add it via cups. [10:26] sorry, marduk see cups for printing. vullum please ignore [10:27] the print server is a windows print server, but i have some ubuntu desktop and i need to connect these with the windows server printers. [10:27] cfhowlett, I assumed there might be window systems on the network. If no then no you don't [10:28] Anyhow Samba is 'cleaner' if you need active directory, then say installing NFS [10:28] marduk, here's what I did at my last shop: get the printer properties via windows. go into ubuntu to add the printer via the http://numbers here. I never used the printer windows printer server at all, ubuntu connected and printed directly [10:31] I have been instaling NDS, LDAP, Kerberos and NFS on a local cluster here and believe me it is quite a handfull. On the hone Samba was much simpler and less error prone [10:32] It is alo better integrated into the ubuntu windows tools [10:34] hey [10:34] is there anyone who's more familiar with SNMP? [10:34] cfhowlett: thanks but i need to use the windows printer server where i have many printers. i knew your first fix but isn't usefull for me. [10:35] all my SNMP clients give huge list of data, but as my friend tried to do the same, these clients gives very little information about the machine [10:35] marduk, someone else will know more than I. ask about windows network printer in the channel [10:36] Dropa, sound the the logging settings. [10:36] and we can't figure out why, we both followed the same tutorial for it, and it didn't really need that much configuration [10:36] Does anyone know how to contact Sound Cloud?

[11:29] cfhowlett: hint: the LTS upgrade will be opened when 16.04.1 is released in july [11:29] k1l_, true. [11:29] I am currently on gnome environment, I wish to work on their modules, they suggest using 15.04+ [11:30] mac234, then they are giving terrible advice [11:30] 15.04 is dead. It's DEAD, Jim! [11:30] sorry just checked its 15.10 they are suggesting [11:31] mac234: as i said: you need to do 2 EOLupgrades. and then a regular upgrade to 15.10. [11:31] so many versions, argh.

[11:51] internal error, no file name for squid3:amd64 [11:51] fun times [11:52] neuromute9, is this a server? [11:53] it's the desktop version of ubuntu, but it has a web server running === Drac0 is now known as Guest71064 [11:58] TJ-: the instructions I can find have information on how to make something automatically mount when you already know its info [11:58] but they don't cover preventing something from automounting when you don't have the detail [12:00] httperr418: from what I read the control of auto-mount is done by gnome-disks [12:00] that's the old way from my reading [12:01] as far as I can see it has been replaced by udiskctl [12:02] httperr418: if you know how to match the device(s) you can create a custom udev rule to have udisks ignore it/them by setting ENV{UDISKS_IGNORE}="1" [12:04] httperr418: actually, you probably want to set ENV{UDISKS_AUTO}="0" [12:04] is that a bash setting? [12:06] can't see a conf file which would be appropriate [12:06] nor a setting in udisksctl [12:10] httperr418: check this: 200~http://paste.ubuntu.com/15456310/ [12:10] oh, it's an fstab setting? === meshybot7 is now known as meshy [12:10] httperr418: no; a udev rule [12:11] that rule will tell udisks not to auto-mount *any* valid recognised file-system type === dreamon__ is now known as dreamon [12:11] what file holds the udev rules? [12:11] hello [12:12] httperr418: read the pastebin [12:13] oh very sorry, so used to people not putting helpful information like that in pastes that I didn't even think to look that [12:13] at that* [12:14] is ubuntu 16.04 beta 2 out? [12:14] !ubuntu+1 | Tlan [12:14] Tlan: Xenial Xerus is the codename for Ubuntu 16.04 - Support only in #ubuntu+1 [12:14] httperr418: I don't guarantee it'll work but based on the docs it ought to [12:14] are converted packagees with alien ok to install ? :D [12:15] do you know if it's out? [12:15] Tlan, "Support only in #ubuntu+1" as in ... ask the correct channel [12:20] regret to inform that it did not work TJ- [12:21] it may be that I have misunderstood how to use the paste you gave me [12:21] httperr418: copy the content into a file and put it in the file-system as the comment indicates [12:22] yep, did that [12:22] rebooted to be sure it would reload the configs, then tested [12:22] httperr418: the rule might need some work; I'm not clear on exactly what it needs to match against to be set - I've guessed that any block device with a valid file-system would be the most obvious though [12:23] yeah that does make sense [12:23] httperr418: reboots not required for udev rules; they take effect immediately [12:23] but just connected a USB stick and it auto mounted happily [12:24] httperr418: it's always possible udisks doesn't obey that 'hint' as is described in the docs, of course [12:24] :( ok [12:24] httperr418, more than a bit over my head here, but I believe dmesg would record such an event and may provide a clue [12:24] Hiyas all [12:24] httperr418: best thing would be to check the value was set by udev when the device was connected - if we know that, we can reason about what to do [12:25] where would I find that? [12:25] httperr418, dmesg | tail [12:26] do i need to install something about this: sudo: ./install: command not found [12:26] httperr418: do you know what device (e.g. /dev/sdc) the USb device is right now? [12:27] Hi, I have list files, and there is prwx. do you know what does p stands for? [12:27] would you expect dmesg to produce new events when the device mounts? [12:27] because it doesn't, I'm tailing it and got nothing [12:27] httperr418, shows up in mine [12:27] TJ-: sdb/sdb1 [12:28] httperr418: then you can check with "udevadm info --query all --path /class/block/sdb1" [12:28] but I would want it to not mount regardless of what sd* it got [12:28] httperr418: if you can pastebin that info I can also scan it [12:31] http://paste.ubuntu.com/15457442/ [12:31] httperr418: so, the rule set it: "UDISKS_AUTO=0" ... and yet it was mounted, so udisks ignored the hint [12:32] you could try using UDISKS_IGNORE="1" instead/as well [12:32] httperr418: try changing the udev rule to be like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15457572/ [12:34] still mounts [12:36] I'm going to have to go grab some food, will give you a wave when I'm back [12:36] thanks for your time dude [12:37] Hi, I have list files, and there is prwx. do you know what does p stands for? [12:46] hey I have a problem with my keyboard settings but can't find a keyboard which has the double quote's and the double quotes fixed I need to type shift + ¨ + space to get the " <-- instead of double ¨ typing this key. [12:46] how to change it? [12:46] I want to install gcc-defaults from launchpad.net but how? [12:49] wibek: its included in gcc package [12:50] k1l: But if I install gcc I get 4.8.5 I want 4.9 [12:51] wibek: you might need a PPA for that. [12:51] how can I list all the i386 packages installed on my system? [12:52] Yes, I've added https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/test but how do I install 4.9? [12:52] azi_, dpkg -l | grep i386 [12:52] wibek: what ubuntu do you use exactly? [12:52] Cablegunmaster: you can use xmodmap if there's no traditional keyboard layout that looks the way you want [12:52] I use kubuntu wily [12:53] cfhowlett: thanks. is there a way to obtain just the names, so that I can send this as a list to someone that wants to install the exact same packages? [12:53] !wily | wibek [12:53] wibek: Ubuntu 15.10 (Wily Werewolf) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download at http://releases.ubuntu.com/15.10 - Read the release notes at http://ubottu.com/y/wily [12:53] azi_: "dpkg -l '*:i386' " [12:53] wibek: on that page you just linked: there is a dropdown menu where you can choose your ubuntu release and see what packages that PPA got for you. [12:54] wibek: its "gcc-5". so do a "sudo apt update && sudo apt install gcc-5" [12:54] I want to change my ¨ key functionality with " how can I do that :)? [12:54] azi_, there is but the exact command escapes me at the moment. sorry [12:54] wibek: but this is gcc 5.2.1. not 4.9. but that is the only one the PPA got [12:54] Hi, I have list files, and there is prwx. do you know what does p stands for? [12:55] k1l: Ok, the higher version is no problem, I need at least 4.9.1 [12:56] I'm new to building in linux [12:56] Now I've gcc-5 but I need gcc and c++ [12:57] I used to install build-essential === adellam_ is now known as adellam [12:58] mojtaba it means 'pipe' ... http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19780783/whats-the-p-permission-found-on-var-run-screen [12:58] MonkeyDust: thanks [12:59] azi_: " dpkg-query --showformat='${Package} ' --show '*:i386' " [13:05] I can create proxy server using ssh -D locally and configure network manager manually to use it. Is there a way to select which addresses use this proxy? (By specifying something special in the URL, like http_proxy instead of http?) What is configuration URL for? [13:08] Hey, just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu [13:09] Im just installing some binaries, jst wondering whaich folder I should use in Ubuntu? [13:09] i know fedora user /usr/local [13:09] what bionaries? === _Tristan-Speccy_ is now known as Tristan-Speccy [13:09] binaries [13:09] google cloud tools SDK [13:10] they have a bunch of command line tools [13:10] gutils and such [13:10] from debs? [13:11] no from their own installer, asks for an install dir [13:12] timini: you can just put them in ~/bin if you dont need it systemwide [13:13] OK if i want them systemwide? [13:13] is there something like /usr/bin [13:13] yes [13:13] or should I just put them in /bin [13:14] hi TJ- have you had any other ideas? [13:14] usr/bin is default for a lot of default apps [13:14] i'd use /opt/ [13:14] I seem to recall the last time I managed this it was on 12.04 so that may have made things a bit different [13:15] httperr418: have you tried the amended udev script? [13:15] yes === matt_ is now known as Guest38892 [13:15] no dice [13:15] timini: I'd go with Ben64's suggestion, less messy than putting alongside packaged binaries [13:15] which line in the output I pasted was it that tells you the rule was being applied, but ignored? [13:15] httperr418: looks like those hints are ignored then [13:15] i lost the super-1, super-2, super-3... shortcuts for the launcher. how do i restore them? [13:15] httperr418: so, the rule set it: "UDISKS_AUTO=0" ... and yet it was mounted, so udisks ignored the hint [13:15] oh, is it just the fact that it's not doing anything? [13:15] sounds good, /opt it is then [13:16] httperr418: yes, your udev rule is working but udisks, or the thing controlling it, is ignoring the hints on what to do, which is opposite what the udisks documentation says should happen [13:16] oh lovely [13:17] I think last time I did this it was just via /etc/fstab [13:17] httperr418: you could add entries in fstab matching the device IDs, with the option "noauto" but you'd have to know in advance the identity of the device(s) [13:17] Hey, can someone please help me debug a freeze at login screen? I'm running 15.10 with 4.2.0-27 kernel. [13:18] hmm, there's no catch all in there? maybe that was a limitation I was unaware of last time I did this [13:18] httperr418: are you using Ubuntu/Unity/Gnome? in those, as I understand it, gnome-disks controls/manages udisks [13:18] Unity === matt__ is now known as matthelmke [13:19] slietzau reboot ... then, when you see the 5 dots, hit F12 ... what does it say [13:19] it's just the standard 14.04 desktop install [13:19] After booting I see the cursor blink once before the system freezes and is completely unresponsive ( Ctrl+Alt+F1 doesn't work) [13:21] MonkeyDust: I think the boot is too fast, should i disable fastboot, splash and quiet? [13:21] slietzau you can try that [13:22] slietzau first time, someone says 'boot is too fast' [13:22] But then the system boots fine and if I hit CtrlAltF1 at the right time I'm able to get into tty1 and the system works until I switch to tty7 [13:23] ubuntu [13:24] mandela it works [13:24] MonkeyDust: Adding 'nomodeset' and 'xforcevesa' as boot parameters works too, but this is not a solution since I can't use my 2nd monitor. [13:24] slietzau: is it a hybrid GPU system? [13:24] yes, nvidia + intel [13:24] drone [13:25] firefox [13:25] TJ-: But the nvidia card should be disabled. I'm using that one only on windows. [13:25] mandela stop [13:25] slietzau: seems like 15.10 kernel is 4.2.0.34.37 now, you not fully up to date? [13:25] slietzau: check the /var/log/ files; kern.log, Xorg.0.log possibly too [13:26] lotuspsychje: I had the same problem when I upgraded to 4.2.0-30 and I could solve it by going back to -27. But when I upgraded last friday my -27 kernel broke, too [13:27] lotuspsychje: I tried the newest kernel and the issue is gone but external USB devices are not working at all. No idea what happened there... [13:31] TJ-: I checked them. When the system freezes they have a line of garbage at the end. Nothing useful before the freeze [13:32] slietzau: that suggests corrupted memory got written to the files [13:33] slietzau: if the integrated GPU is being used, is it sharing RAM (memory) with the OS or does it have dedicated vRAM? [13:33] It seems like the best option would be to just update to the current kernel but then I have the problem with USB devices not working (strangely the internal keyboard works but nothing else) [13:33] T [13:34] TJ-: It's the 940m. As far as i know the RAM is shared. [13:34] slietzau: isn't "940m" an nvidia GPU? [13:34] Sorry, the internal GPU is the one from the 5600U, so not 940m :) [13:35] hi... i would like to limit the size of nginx access log ... and have everything under logrotate... can i do this without restarting nginx???? [13:35] slietzau: so as you're seeing video issues too it makes me wonder if there's some problem with memory sharing/allocation/exhaustion going on. read Xorg.0.log carefully see if it indicates how much memory it is using, and if its shared or not [13:35] TJ-: The internal is intel HD graphics 5500 and the RAM is shared [13:36] how do i set things so the super key pulls up the dash? [13:37] heyheyhey [13:38] pbx: It should do that by default. Have that never worked for you ? [13:38] hi [13:38] stc, i turned it off somehow, and can't get it to take "just super" as the shortcut [13:39] pbx: And your running stock ubuntu with unity, right = [13:39] *? === Abhishek__ is now known as Abhishek_ [13:40] pbx: You should be able to define the shortcut in compizconfig-settings-manager (not installed by default). See the screenshots in this link: http://askubuntu.com/questions/105558/how-do-i-disable-the-super-key [13:41] I made a "chmod 000 mytest.txt" and now tried as root "chmod 660 mytest.txt". But I get an access denied message (ubuntu 14.04). I also tried it with python with the same result. Is there a way to fix this (I can cat the file copy everything but this is somehow strange)? [13:41] TJ-: Okay so before the crash there is a "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference" in kern.log [13:42] and i915 is on top of the call tracke [13:42] yogg maybe with sudo [13:42] Im installing ubuntu 15.10 right now (try live -> install ubuntu) and i dont want to encrypt my home folder, but the checkbox for that option cant be changed. can someone please help me with that? [13:42] MonkeyDust: I'm already root. But does also not work with sudo [13:43] yogg chmod 000 was not a good idea ... try copying it, maybe the permissions change with yhe copy [13:43] Digital: what ubuntu is this exactly? [13:44] Digital: ubuntu doesnt enforce encyption. [13:44] What do you suggest for a windows running laptop. To dualboot in the same hard drive Ubuntu or to install them on an external usb 3.0 ssd? [13:44] Digital: you can always remove it after you install [13:45] MonkeyDust: It was only a test, and I know haw I can workaround it, but its really strange that the root user can not make a "chmod" on a "000" file. Normaly root can do anything ^^ [13:45] a40ntistos: same disk dualboot. external is always slower [13:45] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/s3BVMDeU/irccloudcapture1677221421.jpg [13:45] k1l: even if it is usb 3.0 and ssd? [13:46] k1l: ^^ === mohammad is now known as Guest56034 [13:46] a40ntistos: yes. [13:47] Digital: make a new user in settings > user accounts [13:47] what is alternative for android studio and eclipse to program for android ? [13:47] yogg: what filesystem is your mytest.txt on? [13:47] Digital: type id first in a terminal to get a list of all default groups you're in [13:48] Digital: if you go back to the first page of installation wizard. is it still the same? [13:48] llutz: ext2 [13:48] slietzau: looks like you've got a bug there, or else corruption or faulty memory even. [13:49] yogg: lsattr mytest.txt [13:49] Guest56034: I don't think you will find anything that integrate everything together as well as those two. [13:49] Guest56034: So you would have to use a couple of different applications to archieve the same thing. [13:49] yogg why ext2 ? [13:50] Guest56034: Eg. ATOM for editing, compile and start the emulator from the command-line. [13:50] EriC^^: ok did that [13:50] TJ-: I don't think it's faulty memory since the system runs fine under windows and other kernels are "working". Do you think 'update-initramfs' could solve the issue? [13:50] !ubuntu-make | Guest56034 [13:50] Guest56034: ubuntu-make is a command line tool which allows you to download the latest version of popular developer tools like android sdk and others. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-make [13:51] llutz: MonkeyDust: I forgot about the immutable bit -.- THX. Its an old system. But its time to change the fs to ext4 yes [13:51] stc, i am on ubuntu 14.04 [13:51] k1l: i cant go to the first page but after going back as much as possible it is still the same [13:51] Hi, I'm trying to make my download folder read-only/non-executable, but when I use chmod 666, I cant save anything to the folder. [13:51] Digital: add your new user to the same groups except for the 1001 group [13:51] slietzau: follow up the stack trace in the log; maybe post it in a bug report [13:52] stc, android studio is freez and eclipse is not supported for android any more === sleepy_al2o3-cr is now known as al2o3-cr [13:52] EriC^^: what same groups? [13:52] i need to write my program in java classes [13:53] thanks a lot k1l . Also what do you suggest, to create the partition from windows or to let ubuntu installer to do it? [13:53] and then create a layout in xml and then convert my program to apk files [13:53] lalala123: that is the result if something is read-only. you cant write to it [13:53] lalala123: so your concept is not working in first place [13:53] Digital: did you type id ? [13:54] kll: but it's read and write (666), shouldn't I be able to add a new file or does that fall under "execute" permissions? [13:54] EriC^^: kk [13:54] a40ntistos: windows cant create ubuntu partitions. just isntall windows. then use the widnows tools to shrink windows. then start the ubuntu sub and create the partitions in the free space. [13:54] Guest56034: Hmm.. Java is unfortunately a language which is easiest written using an IDEA. And especially when it comes to android it is nice to have a one-button compile+run in emulator. So perhaps try to look into why android studio is freezing. Are you running the latest version ? [13:54] IDEA = IDE [13:54] lalala123: you need to have execute permissions on directories in order to traverse into them. [13:55] lalala123: folders as such need +x to be able to be gone into [13:55] EriC^^: the default user isnt in group 1001 [13:55] Digital: what groups did you get? [13:58] https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/YkI4p7Wm/irccloudcapture-276674528.jpg [13:58] Pici & k1l: I see. I've read that someone made all downloads read-only by default and I thought I could achieve that by using chmod on the download folder. [13:59] hey! [13:59] stc, i found a way to solve freezing but when i choose avd manager and choose a device for emulator for example nexus4 i cant see this device to start [14:01] anyone here to explain zombie process? [14:01] how forking twice avoid zombie? anyway we are giving wait() in that c program? so isn't it the wait doing the job instead of forking twice?? [14:01] Guest56034: It's not visible in the list of available device ? [14:01] mobile3: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombie_process [14:01] EriC^^: ^^^^ [14:02] Digital: ok, add him to dip plugdev and cdrom [14:02] somsip: I want the c program without wait() written in it! Can you please help? [14:02] sudo usermod -aG dip,plugdev,cdrom testuser [14:02] mobile3: i think that better suits into ##linux or a c channel [14:02] mobile3: no, you need a channel where c is discussed, like ##c [14:02] Digital: btw you can use paste.ubuntu.com to paste or | nc termbin.com 9999 to paste directly [14:03] It would be better I think in linux... lets see If I can connect! [14:04] EriC^^: kk, done [14:05] somsip: I am getting this error Cannot send to channel: ##linux [14:05] !register | mobile3 [14:05] mobile3: Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick » to select your nickname.

[14:07] Digital: logout and login using the new user [14:07] somsip: does using zfs change anything in that regard [14:07] sudo userdel -r as well [14:07] cisstrd: dunno on that one [14:07] k [14:07] cisstrd: you even need to upgrade to 16.04 until july [14:08] hi [14:08] cisstrd: and zfs will not change anything for you. the standard FS ist still ext4 [14:08] EriC^^: i now try it again right? [14:09] it's not relatively urgent (though I have time on my hands right now) [14:09] not sure if I should just wait [14:10] or I could install 16.04 right now (dailybuild) [14:11] Digital: try logging in with the new user, yeah [14:11] 3 days away from the final beta freeze [14:11] anyone know how to get dnsmasq to allow for a locally hardcoded domain to be locally resolved? I've got 127.0.1.1 in my resolv.conf as per network-manager, and "address=/.foobar.com/10.20.30.30" in my /etc/dnsmasq.d/network-manager file, and even after I "service network-manager restart", nslookup foobar.com STILL resolves externally. [14:11] cisstrd 16.04 in #ubuntu+1 [14:11] ah ty :) [14:12] cisstrd: if you need to ask, dont install a alpha/beta ;p [14:12] k1l: I am not looking for installation support am I? ;) [14:13] TJ-: thanks for the help, I found a solution. [14:13] EriC^^: i logged into the new user and run the installation guide but i still have no option [14:14] Digital: i said after you install you can delete the user with the home encryption and make a regular user [14:14] .. [14:14] ... [14:14] :D [14:15] well, fail xd [14:16] stc, i dont see that in the list [14:17] anyone available to helpme setup snmp manager [14:17] StubbornOX ask and wait [14:19] I need some assistance with setting up an SNMP manger on ubuntu 14.04 [14:19] StubbornOX yes, you said that, let's hear it, in one line [14:19] Why is #ubuntu-beginners invite only anyway? [14:19] what is there to hear i need help [14:19] Optiprism: because it forwards here, and you are already here. [14:19] oh [14:20] StubbornOX start with a question [14:20] ok [14:20] how do i setup a SNMP manager on Ubuntu 14.04 [14:20] lol [14:21] Guest56034: Hmm.. are you sure that you have completed the "create new device" wizard correctly ? Perhaps watch a youtube video or something. It has been a while since I've developed Android apps, so i don't remember it properly. Sorry. [14:21] Ok I've got a question, how can I make and install something from github? When I clone the repository I want there is no makefile or ./configure script, so what do I do? [14:21] StubbornOX http://www.it-slav.net/blogs/2009/02/05/install-and-configure-snmp-on-ubuntu/ [14:22] Optiprism: that might depend on the exact thing you want to install [14:22] MonkeyDust thanks [14:22] Optiprism: read the README [14:22] The readme just says to build and install it [14:22] It's pretty minimal [14:23] StubbornOX there are plenty tutorials on snmp [14:23] Any ideas how I go about finding out how to install it? [14:24] MonkeyDust it seems i keep hitting my head on the wall with this for some reason. My goal is to to setup a SNMP manager and email server on a box to monitor my closed network(no internet at all) [14:24] Optiprism, http://www.it-slav.net/blogs/2009/02/05/install-and-configure-snmp-on-ubuntu/ [14:24] MonkeyDust I am really new to linux so please forgive me [14:25] stc, i did it exactly [14:25] Optiprism: again: that depends on what exact program that is [14:25] stc how can i programming for my app in terminal? [14:25] StubbornOX: icinga/nagios can poll and email on snmp events. cacti is another mature tool for snmp managment, but I'm not sure what its alerts toolset is elike. [14:25] Alright, it is this thing: https://github.com/marlam/qvr [14:26] Pici I tried to find nagios in the software center and didnt and I doing that wrong aswell? [14:27] Guest56034: There are a lot of text/code editors that can run in a terminal, such as VIM and EMACS. However, if you are not familiar with those I've would not recommend you starting to learn them when doing android development. My best advise right now, would be to uninstall everything android on your computer - and reinstall. Try to install the android studio using ubuntu-make [14:27] (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-make). [14:27] StubbornOX: These are all server tools, I'm not sure if they are advertized in the software center, but you can instal them using apt. [14:28] whats all that guest stuff [14:29] Pici ok its sudo apt-get install nagios? [14:30] stcsudo apt-get install nagios3 nagios-nrpe-plugin [14:30] -stc [14:30] stc, http://developer.android.com is blocked in my country [14:30] StubbornOX: I beleive the package name is nagios3. [14:30] Pici thats why i couldnt find it. [14:30] Guest56034: I will make a video showing how to add a android virtual device, just give me five minutes. [14:30] Pici thanks [14:31] stc, okay [14:31] anyone know what file dnsmasq is supposed to be using for a config? I have 15.04 . It's NOT /etc/dnsmasq.conf [14:31] StubbornOX, looks like theres an additional package ontop of nagios3 [14:31] sudo apt-get install nagios3 nagios-nrpe-plugin [14:31] stc, i am using 1.5.1 android stusio [14:32] and nagios-nrpe-server [14:32] elh9 ok thanks [14:32] elh9: thats only if you want to use nrpe [14:32] ah [14:32] wha tis nrpe [14:32] what is [14:32] is that not needed in this situ? [14:32] remote exec [14:32] remote monitor [14:32] elh9: he said he wanted to use snmp [14:32] ah soz [14:33] < ignore [14:33] I want to have have this box monitor my network and send an email if it recieves and alert [14:33] from and snmp [14:33] grr i cant type [14:33] from an snmp trap [14:34] with my limited linux experiance is nagios the best route for me? [14:35] Optiprism: hmm, cant find any thing on that. maybe you need to contact the ones making it [14:36] Guest56034: Taking a while to Download.. :) Please be patient.. [14:37] stc, okay thanks [14:37] StubbornOX: Its a solution. There may be others out there, but nagios/icinga is one of the industry standards for network monitoring. This tutorial looks to be rather good for setting up your own snmp monitoring with nagios, http://www.unixmen.com/monitor-linux-server-nagios-core-using-snmp/ [14:37] k1l: Alright, thanks [14:37] StubbornOX: Theres also #nagios [14:40] I installed a new kernel with `apt-get install linux-image-4.2.0-34` and when I boot that kernel only basic modules are loaded. How do I fix that? [14:41] Pici again thanks I will look into that. Thanks [14:42] slietzau: what is the output of "lsb_release -d"? [14:43] k1l: Ubuntu 15.10 [14:44] k1l I will create a partition from windows on my hard drive, when I boot Ubuntu from my usb stick in order to set up it I will choose Install Ubuntu alongside Windows boot manager os the Something else option? [14:44] slietzau: make sure "linux-image-generic" is installed [14:44] I didn't know there was a fancy way for doing `cat /etc/issue` :) [14:45] k1l: It wasn't installed. What do I need that for? [14:45] slietzau: that is the meta-package to make sure you have the latest kernel and headers [14:46] k1l: Thanks, that fixed it I think. Which packages should I always have installed? [14:49] that package will make sure you get all the latest kernel and headers. that is enough for the kernel and modules to be build [14:49] Off topic sorry. ANyone know a cloud provider that allows me to run vagrant boxes?

[15:10] hi guys........I know how to turn swap off by entering sudo swapoff -a in the terminal, but that's just for the current session, because after a reboot swap turns itself back on. Is there any way to turn swap off permanently? [15:11] hello all i've a question, I'm newer than new with the ubuntu server i installed for a home server, the install went fine, installed ssh, when trying to log in from my other device it won't recognize my server password. [15:12] reza_sam: make a "#" in front of the line for swap in /etc/fstab [15:12] k1l tnx ...now im going to test it w8 [15:13] Tin_man: you need to give the user from the server: ssh user@serverip [15:13] oh, from the server side? [15:13] Tin_man: no [15:14] Guest56034: A complete reinstall would be me last advice. [15:14] k1l : is it # /etc/fstab: static file system information.? [15:14] well the instructions i followed said that if your userid was the same just use ssh dave@myipaddress [15:14] Guest56034: Of android studio. Obviously. [15:14] you have a user and pw on the server. from the clientside you need to run this command: ssh user@ip [15:14] thats what i did [15:15] Tin_man: you need to use the same username in front of the @ as the username is on the server [15:15] please try again after 3 times it says permission denied [15:15] publickey, password [15:15] there the same [15:15] same on all my computers [15:15] dave [15:16] reza_sam: you can show me the fstab with "cat /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999" [15:16] i checked the /var/log/auth.log [15:16] and it only said terminated..

[15:18] Tin_man: you enter the right PW? the pw from the user on the server? [15:18] yes [15:19] Tin_man: then see the auth.log on the server [15:19] i can do anything on the server [15:19] did that, only thing it has with sshd is 3 lines evertime i try to log in and the last line is "Terminated" [15:20] Tin_man: details matter a lot here [15:20] it's upgrading now so it'l be a while before i can pastebin it..

[15:39] reza_sam: no [15:39] it will stark killing programs [15:39] *start [15:40] can you go from 14.x to 15.x with a command or is that something where you'd have to jump on a liveOS, remove 14 and install 15? [15:40] k1l : how can i turn in off and start it auto when my system need to iT? [15:40] reza_sam: that doesnt work [15:41] btw I have a question regarding "boot=casper netboot=nfs nfsroot=" what exactly happen with the system when use nfsshare ? It just download casper/filesystem.squashfs and decompres into ram [15:41] reza_sam: but that is how swap works. it is only used when its needed. so you want a regular swap like you already have [15:41] k1l : so ... now...os ot better myswapoff or on ? [15:41] or just mount it and access on demand ? === Gill_ is now known as Gill [15:41] k1l : oh tnx [15:42] k1l and akik: hummm...i like ur helping [15:42] tnx [15:42] reza_sam: what is the problem with swap? if the swap is used there is a reason. so if you disable swap it will have to do something like killing programs [15:42] i dont heavy program to do...so i think is better go to off [15:43] reza_sam: if its not needed its not used [15:43] reza_sam: why do you think that? [15:44] EriC^^, so i read about it that : swap is very bad if turn it and dont use from it :X [15:44] EriC^^, so i read about it that : swap is very bad if turn it on and dont use from it :X [15:44] reza_sam: where did you read that? it's wrong [15:45] EriC^^, oh ...really? so tnx from ur help :) [15:45] np [15:46] EriC^^, do u have LPIC - 2 ?

[15:51] ash_workz: the only supported ubuntus in that list are 14.04 and 15.10 [15:51] ash_workz: and you can only (at this point) go 14.04 -> 16.04 or 15.10 -> 16.04 (once it's released), at least easily [15:51] how disable global changes in libreimpress? [15:52] like if i change a font of a text of the slide every other text's font chnages too [15:52] ropo: maybe the #libreoffice guys might know that one [15:52] Today is release date for new LTS isn't it? [15:52] nacc: okay... well supposing you wanted to do either of those; you could do so from the cli? [15:52] skinux: no [15:52] nacc: and if so, using what command? [15:52] skinux: around 21st april [15:53] Oh...okay. Sorry [15:53] skinux: join #ubuntu+1 for the schedule [15:53] skinux: its called 16.04 because its release will be in april 2016. [15:53] I'm gonna run upgrades from Trusty non-LTS versions, then just upgrade to LTS when it's released, [15:54] ash_workz: technically questions about 16.04 are meant for #ubuntu+1, but you'd use the normal do-release-upgrade or the GUI w/ development releases enabled (as 16.04 is not yet released) [15:54] skinux: dont do that. that is a lot of effort. you can stay on LTS and upgrade with the official upgrade in july [15:55] nacc: I see; "do-release-upgrade" ... I thought there was a command like that but I couldn't remember [15:55] Well, I keep getting told Trusty is dead, yet there is no newer version released that anyone says I should upgrade to. [15:55] skinux: trusty is not dead [15:55] skinux: 14.04 is supported for 5 years [15:56] skinux: hence "LTS" [15:56] i have ubuntu vivid, and i just recently updated. [15:56] skinux: trusty is not dead. [15:56] OKay [15:56] frank__: vivid, on the other hand, is dead :) [15:56] frank__: vivid is dead. you need to upgrade to 15.10 [15:56] !releases | skinux [15:56] skinux: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months (non-LTS) or 5 years (LTS). More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases [15:57] EAE [15:57] sure also 15.10 is LTS [15:57] Hi [15:57] frank__: no. [15:57] Hmm. Well, how can I get PHP 7 on Trusty? [15:57] vanderson: welcome, how can we help you? [15:57] frank__: 12.04, 14.04, 16.04 are LTS [15:57] frank__: no [15:57] skinux: use Ondrej's PPA, which is unsupported here [15:58] frank__: you need to upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04 until july. [15:58] skinux: officially, you cannot get PHP7 on trusty [15:58] my point is though that i might have updated at the same time i downloaded katoolin [15:58] frank__: so first upgrade to 15.10 asap [15:58] which allowed my repository to be crowded with "kali" which is as well deb [15:59] i think =.= [15:59] frank__: if you run that rubbish repos its not supported here anymore [15:59] How about unofficially? [15:59] this has caused my comp to recognize at a root level that it is kali [15:59] skinux: its not recommended to go mix package versions like that [16:00] the issu though would be that i lost my interface in the transaction [16:00] okay [16:00] frank__: that is the reason its not supported here. talk to kali and the katoolin guys [16:00] now im stuck with terminal [16:00] !kali | frank__ [16:00] frank__: Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes.

Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [16:00] skinux: if you like other package versions, install other ubuntu version [16:01] my linux freeze at boot . it only shows logo please help me [16:02] linux820: ubuntu version?

[16:04] hence my conundrum [16:04] linux820: see their webpage for support then. its not an ubuntu issue and its offtopic in here [16:04] ok [16:04] frank__: we cant help you. ask the kali and katoolin guys for help. they made your system a kali. === debian is now known as Guest57356 [16:05] if someone could help me understand how from a ubuntu now already a kali back to ubuntu [16:06] !kali [16:06] Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu itself, as other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes.

Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [16:06] yea ok i get that [16:06] frank__: make a reinstall of ubuntu [16:06] sure i could do a roll back [16:06] frank__: the kali repos did mix a lot of packages. there is no safe way back to an official ubuntu [16:07] something that dosent take up space [16:07] any pointers [16:07] apart from a reinstall [16:07] frank__: no. cant be done. [16:08] wow really thanks [16:08] hi again...how can i find sources.list of on application and add it to my sources.lisT? [16:08] one* [16:08] reza_sam: you mean: how to find a 3rd party PPA or other repo? [16:08] reza_sam: what program are you looking for? [16:10] sudo rm ~/.fonts.conf, it says "operation not permitted" so how do i get rid of the file? [16:10] Sonderblade: dont use sudo [16:10] Sonderblade: in your users home there should not be stuff that needs sudo rights at all [16:10] no....for exaple google chrom is not in the sowftware manager because we dont have repository of chrume....then we going to add chrume link to our sources.list in /etc/apt/sources.list [16:11] Anyone familiar with AUFS or use it? [16:11] k1l: yes. doesn't answer my question though [16:11] ok [16:12] reza_sam: you dont add anything to your sources.list file. 3rd party repos will be added to the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory. [16:12] yes [16:12] reza_sam: if you donwload the chrome .deb-file and install it, it will make its own 3rd party repo automatically [16:12] Sonderblade: ls -al .fonts.conf [16:12] EldonMcGuinness, have you seen mergerfs? [16:13] reza_sam: [16:13] <k1l> hummm.... if i want add 3rd party to my repository befor download .deb...what can i do? [16:13] elh9, no I have not, I'll take a look [16:13] k1l: -rw-rw-r-- [16:13] its very simple, performs as well as aufs [16:13] reza_sam: you dont do it for chrome. [16:13] Sonderblade: and owner and group? [16:14] <k1l> hummm.... so for other app...what can i do? [16:14] /mnt/data/* /storage fuse.mergerfs category.create=eplfs,defaults,allow_other,minfreespace=20G,fsname=mergerfsPool 0 00 [16:14] reza_sam: that depends on the app. [16:14] k1l: my username [16:14] EldonMcGuinness, just have that string in my /etc/fstab [16:14] and it pools all the data drives from my snapraid array [16:14] elh9, does it do balancing and is it userland or kernel? [16:14] reza_sam: in general: there is the /etc/apt7sources.list.d/ folder where 3rd party repos are placed. [16:14] it does do balacning [16:14] and you have options on exactly how it does it [16:14] great [16:15] sounds like it might be a winner then! [16:15] <k1l> iknow... for example i wanna add Viber messanger repository to my repository befor download .deb [16:15] Sonderblade: rm .fonts.conf [16:15] userland vs kernel, not fully sure [16:15] k1 "operation not permitted" [16:15] its userland [16:15] looking to move a lump of data from a windows machine to a similar setup in nix, the data is currently managed by an app called drive bender. [16:15] about 12TB worth [16:15] use sudo su -l and then writw ur command [16:16] hrmm [16:16] reza_sam: i did, see channel log [16:16] Sonderblade: please show the whole output of "uname -a", "pwd" and "ls -al" in a pastebin [16:16] drivebender does about the same thing as aufs so it should work out well. [16:16] i did a 3TB transfer to my mergerfs pool 2 days ago, with rsync, was all good [16:16] largest file was probably only 5GB though [16:16] but no problems [16:16] elh9 any chance that it will work with NTFS partitions? :P [16:16] reza_sam: do they even have a repo? [16:17] i'm not sure about that EldonMcGuinness sorry [16:17] no worries, thanks for the info [16:17] how can i understand it? [16:17] reza_sam: setting up a repo on programs that only allow download from their website is not working. [16:17] EldonMcGuinness, in terms of balacing, in the mounting string above, this part >>> category.create=eplfs <<< controls the balacing [16:18] <k1l> so never i dont need to add repository manualY? [16:18] cheers elh9 [16:18] reza_sam: that question doesnt make sense. [16:18] i think epmfs and eplfs will try to fill each drive first before moving on to the next [16:18] there are other strings that will keep your drives filled equally [16:18] reza_sam: i already said it depends on the exact program you want to install. but chrome and viber dont work that way. [16:18] no worries [16:19] just interduse to me an app for test add repository of it to my sources list [16:20] reza_sam: that's not how applications work in ubuntu. Tell us the application you want to add. Many are provided by Ubuntu in the official repositories. [16:21] reza_sam: no [16:21] nacc : oh good tnx [16:21] reza_sam: never put something in your sources.list file yourself [16:22] hi guys === max_ is now known as Guest73544 [16:22] reza_sam: you keep asking the wrong questions. just use the official ubuntu repos for installing. and if you want to use a program that is not included, then we can look for that exact program. === Guest73544 is now known as Arenuzzz [16:22] yes ... my question is not goood...but tnx for ur explain :) [16:22] hi [16:24] and the end question..... for example i have USB toshiba 8G :i want when i connect it to my pc٫my photoes copy in ut auto [16:24] hi [16:24] anybody here use ubuntu mate? [16:24] gnukman: yup [16:24] gnukman: i use it on an old thinkpad x61s, love it [16:24] (but then I would, I started the project) 😃 [16:25] is there any way to change the odroid admin login name without creating a new account? [16:25] i tried to chmod but it keeps telling me the odroid account is in process [16:25] those are unofficial images, but technically I don't think it differs from any other linux system - you'd need to create a new account, yes.

[16:28] dapper.. is almost as old as dos6.22 ;) [16:28] seems like it [16:29] nexace: dapper is way unsupported [16:29] !usn | CarlFK see also the security risks on your eol version [16:29] CarlFK see also the security risks on your eol version: Please see http://www.ubuntu.com/usn for information about recent Ubuntu security updates.

[16:29] i have it here on trusty, yes [16:29] how did you install it?

[17:02] ok, wait 5 min [17:02] lotuspsychje, if i ssh to him.can does he see my command ?

Last time I tried installing a driver by just using the .run it broke my installation, could someone guide me through the process of installing the driver. Also, if there are no negative affects I would like to use wayland (ubuntu gnome 15.10), should I insta [17:07] TJ-, can u say about ur sugest more? [17:07] ok. doing the fschk option. but the utils when booting the recovery of the latest kernel get stuck often. [17:07] reza_sam: sharing a ssh-session is live... [17:07] Guy1524: you overestimate the stability of wayland and new video drivers [17:08] how is the default dns search domain defined in ubuntu?

Person B would ssh into a separate user account on the same PC, and then do "tmux attach-session -t shared_session" and at that point would be sharing person A's terminal [17:10] Marezz: why not just tweak your existing system and disable all you need? [17:10] Guy1524: wayland is everyting but stable. there is missing a lot from the desktops like gnome or kde. and a mass of programs not ready for wayland too. [17:10] lotuspsychje: just after reading on partitions. sda5, sda3 in that case. [17:11] x programs work on wayland through a wrapper I am told [17:11] Marezz: i see most people wanting to remove zeitgeist due to FUD. but that is wrong. zeitgiest is not sending data anywhere. [17:11] gimp can’t saved as jpg? [17:11] ya through XWayland [17:11] Marezz: but if you want to remove it, just uninstall the zeitgeist package and reboot [17:11] gimp can’t saveas jpg?

[17:12] k1l, oh, nice, I read somewhere that uninstalling it also removes unity and breaks the system [17:14] cariveri: does it occur when booting all previous kernels? [17:14] help with dd program? [17:14] is it normal that shortcut form ubunut applications (e.g ctrl+w or drag drop in rhythmbox ) do not work in kubuntu (kde ) ? is there any way to fix it ? [17:14] idk, the guy on the forum seems to be having a good expierience with it, he says he can play CS:GO with pretty good framerates. And cs:go uses SDL2 which uses X if I am correct [17:14] Guy1524: so, if you follow the wayland progress a while you will see its said "it is production ready since ages" but in reality its still very crashy and not a daily desktop except for very limited usage. [17:15] huh [17:15] lotuspsychje: problems only occur on the newest kernel. other previous kernels work. [17:15] cariveri: ah, file a new bug mate, but before you do make sure your up to date with system [17:15] !bug | cariveri [17:15] cariveri: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.

Any idea how I can stop this? [17:20] cariveri: lotuspsychje check the hash with "VERSION="$(3.13.0-83-generic)"; pushd /; grep boot/vmlinuz /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-${VERSION}.md5sums | md5sum -c; popd" [17:20] ah, it stopped now [17:20] TJ-: I assume to do that I would have to boot the recovery mode? [17:20] cariveri: any working kernel boot [17:21] cariveri: here's what to expect if the kernel image is good (this is for my installed kernel version here) e.g. "boot/vmlinuz-4.5.0-rc5+: OK" [17:22] cariveri: it's simply a file integrity check to ensure you've got a good kernel image, without any corruption in it [17:22] Any idea what might cause this error? https://bpaste.net/show/10a0ed3da2dd [17:23] TJ yes.

However, if that file checks out, then do "update-initramfs -u -k 3.13.0-83-generic" to rebuild the image, then try booting that kernel version again [17:25] cariveri: also ensure that /boot/ has sufficient free-space (dh -h ) === mohammad is now known as Guest61014 [17:29] hello [17:30] Hey, I'm running ispconfig+postfix+dovecot and I can use this (https://www.wormly.com/test_smtp_server) to send emails from my server without username/password. What could be the problem ? [17:31] corndoge: postfix misconfigured [17:31] llutz, i thought so but could you tell me what the setting that causes this could be? [17:31] TJ-: I did it without the exported variable of the version and I get : "no correctly formatted md5 checksum found" are you sure that commadn was correct? grep looks up /booT/...generic inside of the file /var/...generic.md5sum piping the result to md5sum -c ? [17:31] TJ-: the pushd /; I did not understand though [17:32] cariveri: the pushd saves the current directory and changes to / in order to run the command [17:32] corndoge: check smtp_sender*, smtp_sasl* entries [17:32] TJ-: alright, then I could just go there. [17:33] cariveri: sure; having pushd ensures the commands work no matter what [17:33] is KdenLive for kde only? [17:33] TJ-: still, the result is not correctly formatted checksum. so the krnerl is in deed corrupt? [17:34] hello [17:34] cariveri: no; that sounds like the grep isn't extracting a line from the packages' md5sums file [17:34] corndoge: check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix for ideas [17:34] cariveri: does the .md5sums file actually exist? [17:35] llutz, thanks i'll do that [17:35] TJ-: for sure it does. [17:35] cariveri: then there's something incorrect in the commands you've typed [17:35] cariveri: try the grep part on its own to prove you get a single line out for boot/vmlinuz [17:36] cariveri: also, check "ls /boot/vmlinuz*" to see the installed kernels [17:37] TJ-: yes. I trimmed the path away. and the result is now. boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-83-generic: OK [17:37] i am going to install android studio with umake android command in terminal developer.android.com is blocked for my country and i need to use tor socks proxy in terminal what do i do that ? [17:37] cariveri: great, so the kernel is valid. now regenerate the initrd [17:37] cariveri: do "update-initramfs -u -k 3.13.0-83-generic" to rebuild the image, then try booting that kernel version again [17:38] cariveri: the initrd contains many kernel modules and other bits that, if corrupted, could cause problems [17:38] Anyone here use AmazonCloud?

[19:05] Dancia: what service are we talking about and how was it installed? === ColdKeybo[a]rd is now known as ColdKeyboard [19:07] Dancia: if the service has no option to run as different user, you cannot change the euid of that process during runtime easily [19:10] k1l, well, to be exact I tried to install VM GUI (phpvirtualbox). And I did it with wrong user. I have created separate user vboxuser to use it in config file, but since (as I believe) I installed phpvirtualbox with other user, I cant establish connection using VBOXWEB_USER=vboxuser to VM GUI [19:11] Basically, what I am asking, is it possible to switch VBOXWEB_USER to other user in phpvirtualbox. [19:11] Sorry for my lack of knowledge on this topic. xD === miguel is now known as Guest1471 [19:15] Dancia: i dont know about phpvirtualbox. [19:16] Dancia: maybe the guys in #ubuntu-server know better about that specific program. but in general it should be easy to switch the user the program is started as. look at the upstart starting script or whatever it starts [19:17] k1l, Ok, thanks for tips. That's enough info for me to more forward. [19:19] Dancia: you might need to change some permissions to that new user if there are permission errors after changing the user. [19:21] K1L are you here ? [19:21] PowaBanga: just a few minutes [19:21] cool :) [19:22] http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-154887 [19:24] PowaBanga: 1) [19:25] doing [19:25] what this will do ? [19:25] I'm having problems with my graphics card [19:25] I tried to install pycuda, but it broke something === momken is now known as digitsm [19:26] I have an NVIDIA graphics card, and I have nvidia-352 installed [19:26] Is there a way to make ovpn client from ovpn.se to automatic load on startup? [19:27] `apt-get install pycuda` installed nvidia-340 too, which stopped the graphics card from working [19:27] someone here suggested I `apt-get purge nvidia*` and install just nvidia-352 [19:27] that made the graphics card work again, but it also got rid of pycuda [19:27] I believe I have multiples in my apt source file. Is there a way to find out what I just need? [19:27] can anyone help me? [19:28] k1L http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-154888 [19:29] PowerKiller: correct it: 1) [19:29] Perform changes ? (y/n) [19:29] Razzdoll: why do you think that? [19:29] PowaBanga: y. [19:29] k1l: you helped me yesterday [19:29] I was having problems with my graphics card [19:29] PowaBanga: that drive is a mess. you have no change not fixing it. [19:30] Invalid input [19:30] k1l, I am seeing the same link update. [19:30] PowaBanga: y [19:30] idem [19:30] k1l, then it is saying error not found, etc. [19:30] Razzdoll: put all the output into paste.ubuntu.com and show the link here [19:31] k1l, ok one second [19:31] ksft: i dont know what driver pycuda needs to work with. [19:31] http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-154889 [19:32] k1l: would installing it and then uninstalling nvidia-340 work? [19:32] or uninstalling nvidia-352? [19:32] PowaBanga: you made a big Y, not a small y [19:32] Good afternoon -- Anyone have a recommendation for a good linux program that will allow me to use my graphics tablet to annotate PDF files? Im using Okular right now, it works but is not great [19:32] k1l, http://paste.ubuntu.com/15467062/ [19:33] ksft: if pycuda only works with 340 and has that as a depency it will get removed again. [19:33] ksft: so sort what programs you want and what their depency is [19:33] k1l: sort? [19:33] Razzdoll: eeeek [19:34] k1l, uh oh, not good? [19:34] Razzdoll: never ever again use that sources.list builders and put 3rd party repos into your sources.list [19:34] k1l: why does nvidia-340 being installed prevent a program from using nvidia-352? [19:35] ksft: you said pycuda needs 340. i said i dont know about pycuda [19:35] k1l, oh. so do you know the file I should be using? Or correctly, rather. (lol) [19:35] k1l: I have a game that won't run if I install pycuda (and nvidia-340 with it) [19:36] glxgears also doesn't work if I have it installed [19:36] Razzdoll: yes. 3rd party repos belong into their own files in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ folder [19:36] how to take screenshot? [19:36] ksft: so dont install 340 and pycuda if you want that game :) [19:36] http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-154890 [19:36] k1l, Do you have a working source file, or correct one? [19:36] I can no longer access my samsung android phone, was a bug introduced into the mtp stuff? [19:36] k1l: but I want pycuda [19:37] k1l: it completely breaks graphics, not just that game [19:37] He speak with 3 people at same time ^^ [19:37] installing pycuda makes glxgears not work [19:37] Razzdoll: https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/sources.list/#Wily just change the de. to fr. [19:38] PowaBanga: so its done? [19:38] for me, the harddrive is ever in read onli [19:38] PowaBanga: sudo eject /dev/sdb [19:38] PowaBanga: then plug it in again [19:38] see dmesg [19:39] ha ! [19:39] it work [19:39] realy thanks !!! [19:40] ksft: so maybe pycuda is the issue. where are you installing it from? look at what depencies it got. [19:40] * k1l is afk now [19:43] k1l, thanks. how come 15.10 doesnt have a securitys deb? [19:44] romani pe aici [19:44] hello! i cant install nothing.

I expect the details differ depending on whether you are pre or post systemd. [20:02] larisio: sorry, I only support heterosexual skype [20:06] k1l, I can delete file from my hard drive, but I can create any new file [20:06] it say the hard drive is read only :( [20:06] Loshki: i know an old french maxime which says: "qui s'excuse s'accuse" ---- translate to know ---- By the way: in your language gay mean """"fellow"""" isn't?

Just my little joke. === jan is now known as Guest30212 [20:08] ok but I just want to know how to install skype but i received that [20:08] If my computer is currently running 4.2.0-30, why would apt-get upgrade be wanting to install kernel 4.2.0-16? Is it trying to downgrade my kernel due to a bug or something? [20:09] larisio: well what happens if you go to http://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-computer/ and install it from there? [20:10] maquis: what version of ubuntu? [20:10] nacc: 15.10 server [20:11] maquis: did you happen to enable the updates component at some point and then disable it again? [20:11] maquis: what does "apt-cache policy linux-image-generic" report? [20:11] nacc: i don't think so [20:12] TJ-: http://pastebin.com/UdpJLPZj [20:13] uname -r says: 4.2.0-30-generic [20:13] maquis: it looks like you have at some point uninstalled "linux-generic" and/or "linux-image-generic" which are the placeholders that always depend on the latest actual linux-image-$VERSION [20:14] TJ-: huh... i have no idea how I could've done that. So, should I install one/both of those? [20:15] Hello, guys. The 'xinput' command will be available in the Mir? I need to disable touchscreen and i can do it with this command, but i don't know if it will work in Unity 8. [20:15] maquis: however, on 15.10, "apt-cache depends linux-image-generic" reports "Depends: linux-image-4.2.0-16-generic, linux-image-extra-4.2.0-16-generic, linux-firmware" [20:15] maquis: so it looks like that installed -30 version is from some other source [20:15] deadlock: Try #ubuntu-desktop for Mir [20:15] maquis: it's from -updates, afaict [20:15] TJ-: --^ [20:16] TJ-: maquis: but i think TJ- is right, at some point linux-image-generic was removed and so the autoremovals/updates aren't being trakced properly by apt [20:16] no idea how I did that... Actually, I did mark something when I was installin to say that I did want automatic security upgrades... would that cause it? [20:16] maquis: strike that; my system is incorrect, the current version is actaully -37 [20:16] seems like it shouldn't, though [20:16] littlebunnyfufu: thanks, man [20:16] maquis: Yes; the -37 comes from the security pocket [20:17] maquis: see http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/linux-image-generic [20:17] TJ-: ah... so maybe if I do an apt-get update and then upgrade, maybe it will fix it all? [20:17] maquis: "apt-get dist-upgrade" will upgrade to newer kernel package versions [20:18] maquis: but you may still need to re-install "linux-image-generic" to have it happen automatically - otherwise you'll need to give apt-get the actual package name-version [20:19] TJ-: cool. thanks! === arun_ is now known as Guest5182 [20:26] I have 32 bit ubuntu... do I have an option for running chrome? === al_ is now known as Guest32682 === vert0let|afk is now known as vert0let [20:36] is there anyway in ubuntu on the command line to make the level for the input on the sound card say from a mic to always be the same boot after boot mine keeps minimalizing everytime i boot from scratch???

[20:54] peace, you could try apt-get install libcap2 libcap2-bin [20:54] peace: Are you looking for a specific application? [20:54] Pici: was tryng to build something.found on their readme? [20:55] peace, more details please [20:56] in the worst-case scenario you might have to download the specific version source code and build it on your own, but first make sure what exact libraries are required [20:57] aethersis: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/gitweb?p=online.git;a=blob;f=loolwsd/README;h=5d1e0819f601665831be9d6721cc45c5bce7c270;hb=HEAD ---> line 11 [20:58] aethersis: libcap2 libcap2-bin are already there.But please assure it's the right thing and libcap-progs is not [21:00] peace: its hard to tell without knowing what they think is in libcap-progs [21:01] where does ubuntu 14.04 LTS server store the name servers, not in /etc/resolv.conf? [21:01] ask this bc im creating a kickstart file and want to set the name servers [21:01] Pici: https://sites.google.com/site/fullycapable/ ---> do you think it's related? [21:01] and etwork --device=eth0 --bootproto=static --ip=192.168.###.### --netmask=255.255.255.0 --gateway=192.168.###.### --nameserver=###.###.###.### --noipv6 --hostname=$$$ doesnt work [21:01] apparently libcap-progs is only for opensuse [21:01] you might have to compile from sources [21:02] aethersis: https://sites.google.com/site/fullycapable/ --> maybe not.Just wanted if I am going right [21:04] it's more of a specific package related topic than a ubuntu related topic... I can't help you with that any further than to tell you I'm not aware of libcap-progs package being avalible for ubuntu. You might need to compile it from sources [21:04] doesn't seem too scary, I've done this with gsteramer with all the plugins on tegra and it's pretty darn big xD [21:16] reveal: if the system isn't using Network Manager then it'll be ifupdown and its /etc/network/interfaces{,.d/} [21:17] reveal: when resolvconf is installed there are ifupdown hooks that call resolvconf to update the resolver config seen by the symlink at /etc/resolv.conf. in 'interfaces' that is usually 'dns-nameservers 1.2.3.4 5.6.7.8' === MobGod is now known as Mob [21:24] anyone have any clue why my 14.04 install has recently stopped inhibiting the screensaver/lock when fullscreen content is playing? [21:24] I don't recall changing anything that would affect that [21:24] I've noticed it with chrome, so maybe it's actually a chrome bug [21:29] seems like it doesn't happen with vlc so it's most likely a chrome bug === King is now known as hiwhiteboy [21:39] hi all [21:39] hi guys. 16 lts - already cool for usage? :) [21:40] hhee1: its not released yet (end of april) and if you need to ask dont use alpha and betas :) [21:40] k1l, want to install xfce there :) [21:40] think it will be nice :) [21:40] load ubuntu 14.04 or 15.10. there are xubuntu isos that inclide xfce already [21:41] k1l, just need install fresh linux to my laptop, and thought about new lts. [21:41] hhee1: then install 15.10 and update end of april :) [21:42] k1l, xubuntu have less support time as i know? [21:42] k1l, no want smth brand new :) [21:42] hhee1: it uses the same base system. [21:43] k1l, for support time i think it more tru to install usual ubuntu and then xfce there. no/ [21:43] ? [21:44] no [21:44] k1l, read wiki, there is string "14.04 LTS Trusty Tahr 2014-04-17 April 2017 LTS" [21:44] k1l, just 3 year support [21:45] hhee1: you want to install a beta, and now argue about the long term support? :) [21:46] k1l, what wrong with beta? :) its my laptop not mission critical system :) === r0ry is now known as Guest26199 [21:48] hhee1: ubuntu/canonical offers 5 years support for the packages in main. xfce is maintained by the xubuntu community in universe. so that is the reason for 3 years support. [21:48] hhee1: so it doesnt matter if you install ubuntu and then xfce or xubuntu in the first place. [21:52] k1l, it means that all about xfce will be supported 5 years? [21:52] nope [21:52] oh [21:52] all except xfce i mean [21:54] Hi! [21:54] i used wrong words :) [21:54] bas__, hello! :) [21:56] k1l, not understand... "Xubuntu 14.04 LTS was released on 17 April 2014 and, being an LTS, features three years of support." [21:57] hm... [21:57] hhee1: non LTS versions have only 9 months support [21:57] k1l, know that [21:57] k1l, i talked about lts [21:59] hhee1: ubuntu/canonical supports 5 years everything that is in the main repo. xfce, kde etc are not in main repo. they are in universe and maintained by the community. there its the community that decides how long they can support it. [21:59] hhee1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu [22:00] k1l, yep! this is i understand. it means - all except xfce related packages in xubuntu will be supported for 5 years? [22:00] hhee1: everything that is in main will be 5 years supported. [22:01] k1l, ok tnx :) think i got it : [22:01] :) [22:02] Hi [22:03] Has anybody downloaded and run a new version of Mozilla Firefox in Ubuntu 14.04.1 ? [22:04] graps, which version? regular, beta, or developer? [22:04] why would I want to run vanilla ubuntu as opposed to mint? I need guidance, please [22:05] mmlj4, why do you need mint? [22:05] mmlj4: The regular version [22:05] hhee1: The regular version [22:05] hhee1: why should I avoid mint? [22:07] mmlj4: from this IRC channel's point of view, if you use Mint you're out of luck of getting help here [22:08] hhee1: I did a crazy way of installing the updated version: sudo tar -jxvf firefox-45.0.1.tar.bz2 in /usr/bin [22:09] hello everyone, I am trying to run an script which checks dependencies for a make, and it calls for automake version 1.9, how can I install this version? [22:10] graps: untarring an archive under /usr/bin is a good way of breaking your whole system. I advise you to avoid doing that, and please do not encourage that inthis channel [22:11] mcphail: Okay, point taken. I destroyed the Mozilla runtimes, I believe [22:11] mmlj4: just look at all that security issues and managing on mint. that should be enough. for more comparisons ask in ##linux [22:12] graps: why dont you just use the firefox ubuntu ships? === littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmerica === hiwhiteboy is now known as King [22:12] k1l: I was, but when I browsed after starting the executable, it was a deprecated version found (version 30) [22:13] graps: what? [22:13] what ubuntu are you using there? [22:13] k1l: It was stable version 30, but I wanted to upgrade to the latest version (45) [22:14] !info firefox trusty [22:14] firefox (source: firefox): Safe and easy web browser from Mozilla.

[22:14] graps: the current version in stable is version 45 [22:14] graps: so what ubuntu are you using there at all? [22:15] k1l: No version, it was broken after I did the sudo tar command [22:15] graps: last time now: what ubuntu do you use exactly? [22:16] k1l: 14.04.4 [22:16] graps: because you should never ever have had to do this messing with you system since ubuntu ships firefox 45 in all its supported version [22:16] k1l: Okay, but I think I was earlier than 45 [22:16] I > it [22:17] graps: "sudo apt purge firefox* && sudo apt update && sudo apt install firefox" [22:17] k1l: Okay, I'll try that command set [22:18] k1l: Does it matter where I run the command ? [22:18] in your terminal [22:19] k1l: As in /usr/bin, or /opt, or it doesn't matter [22:19] graps: stop [22:19] k1l: Okay, I didn't run anything yet [22:19] graps: never ever start to fiddel with /usr/bin or other folders if you dont know what all that is [22:20] graps: my commands run with the package management system. it doesnt matter where your prompt is. [22:20] k1l: Okay, good point, I think mcphail told me that a few minutes ago (fiddling around /usr/bin) [22:21] <\9> apt deals with /usr/bin for you, don't go messing around there [22:22] can anyone help me [22:22] k1l: I will run that sudo apt purge... command one line at a time, fair enough ? [22:23] i am new to linux but i have grown tired of it and in love with it [22:23] there are always bootup problems when faced with updates [22:23] graps: yes, you can run those 3 command one at a time without the §§ [22:23] *&& [22:23] k1l: Okay, thanks. Here goes... [22:25] k1l: Okay, they've been run. Did you need the output ? [22:25] graps: yes, please in a pastebin [22:26] k1l: Okay, looking up the pastebin instructions [22:26] use paste.ubuntu.com and put all the text there.

I'm checking in another pc with a working browser [22:30] graps: paste it into a text file and then run "nc termbin.com 9999 < yourfile.txt" [22:30] graps: right. put it into a new textfile in your users home. and do what mcphail said :) [22:31] mcphail: I'll paste it into a gedit editor, then run the nc termbin... command [22:32] Is this correct ? -> http://termbin.com/380u [22:33] I think it's on there [22:33] graps: ok. [22:33] I'll wait [22:33] graps: does firefox work now? [22:33] k1l: I haven't invoked the command yet. Try it now ? [22:34] Hello people, Can any one help me setting up zsh, I followed everystep. All correct. But the Terminal background keeps the same. [22:34] graps: you'll need to run the commands from a different directory than the one where you have the firefox tarball. It is confusing the shell [22:34] In the turoial they said. Import this color scheme. How do i import it ?! [22:34] ah yes. good spot mcphail [22:35] * mcphail hates shell globbing [22:35] mcphail: Okay. I was using a terminal window [22:35] graps: wait, you can try with "sudo apt purge firefox" [22:35] graps: yes - you did things correctly. It is just an old Unix bug ;) [22:36] k1l: Where, in the terminal window ? [22:36] graps: yes [22:36] k1l: Running "sudo apt purge firefox" in the terminal window [22:39] http://termbin.com/y48b [22:40] graps try sudo aptitude purge ~c [22:40] k1l, mcphail: What next ? I tried running firefox, but it's currently not installed [22:41] no, we need to get rid of all that manual firefox stuff [22:41] graps: "sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/firefox" [22:42] graps: "sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/firefox-addons" [22:42] k1l: Okay, typing those commands now [22:42] Hey guys [22:43] Want to contribute some code, don't know where to start. Can somebody point me in the right direction? [22:43] graps: after that "sudo apt install firefox" [22:43] k1l: Okay, here goes... [22:43] Soucatch: look for a project you want to contribute to. then ask the projects team how you could help [22:44] !contribute | Soucatch [22:44] Soucatch: To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://community.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu [22:45] http://termbin.com/djmq [22:45] Soucatch create a GUI for NFS, it's a wanted item [22:45] graps: now start firefox [22:45] k1l: Okay, attempting to start firefox [22:46] k1l: That's a negative. firefox is currently not installed [22:47] graps: type "firefox" in the terminal, does it start? [22:48] k1l: Negative, it states "The program 'firefox' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install firefox" [22:48] k1l: Should I go ahead ? [22:48] graps: Make it simple... ;) 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall firefox' Your probably fine with this command.

[22:50] k1l: No output [22:50] Thanx, ubottu [22:53] graps: "ls -al /usr/bin/firefox " [22:53] 下列软件包有未满足的依赖关系： [22:53] wine : 依赖: wine1.6 但是它将不会被安装 [22:53] E: 无法修正错误，因为您要求某些软件包保持现状，就是它们破坏了软件包间的依赖关系。 [22:53] !cn [22:53] 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [22:53] ^ [22:54] black-vincy: export LANG=C [22:54] k1l: http://termbin.com/qzsx [22:54] then run the commands and pastebin the output in paste.ubuntu.com [22:55] graps: so you didnt run both commands i gave you [22:55] graps: "sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/firefox" [22:55] and k1l> graps: "sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/firefox-addons" [22:55] graps: ah wait, i made atypo [22:55] k1l: Okay [22:55] "sudo rm -rf /usr/bin/firefox" [22:56] k1l: Running "sudo rm -rf /usr/bin/firefox" [22:56] yes. [22:56] graps sudo rm [22:56] k1l: It was you that told graps, that he should not mess around with folders and files. So why do you tell him to remove these folders. Just let him reinstall firefox. That will overwrite and replace his local install... [22:57] graps sudo rm /var/lib/info/firefox [22:57] minimec: it will not. he did a manual install into those folders. and apt/dpkg is not installing the ubuntu-firefox because that folders already contain stuff. [22:58] k1l: How about if I try this "sudo apt-get install --reinstall firefox" ? [22:58] k1l: apt-get --reinstall should do IMHO. Otherwise he could 'sudo apt-get purge firefox' first and do a normal install afterwards. [22:59] minimec: we did a purge and a fresh install already. [22:59] please see backlog [22:59] on start up, bluetooth is enabled and connect to a headset I have, but pulse audio does not display the headset in settings; running "sudo pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover" makes the headset appear in settings but, configuring the audio as A2DP, resets to HDP when I open vlc to play a video. [22:59] k1l: Reading you conversation, I am not really sure that he did 'purge' firefox. [23:00] k1l: So, the last command I executed was "sudo rm -rf /usr/bin/firefox" [23:00] How do I get the bluetooth to connect correctly and default to A2DP for the headset? [23:00] minimec: he did. but it didnt remove the stuff "since the folders are not empty" [23:00] graps: "sudo apt purge firefox" [23:00] k1l: Okay, here goes... [23:01] minimec: i quote from the pastebin "dpkg: warning: while removing firefox, directory '/usr/bin/firefox' not empty so not removed" === cigumo_ is now known as cigumo [23:01] minimec: on a original ubuntu install, its just a symlink in /usr/bin/ but he did install the firefox.tar into it [23:02] graps: after that do "sudo apt install firefox" [23:02] k1l: http://termbin.com/ybic [23:02] k1l: Hmmm... Ok. And I was pretty sure that purge would remove the folders and its conent anyway... But I am not too old to learn ... ;) [23:03] k1l: Executing "sudo apt install firefox" [23:03] graps try sudo aptitude purge ~c <-- replace purge with search, to see what it does [23:04] MonkeyDust: Saving that command to clipboard [23:05] k1l: http://termbin.com/boq1 [23:05] graps: ok, does it work now? starting firefox? [23:06] k1l: Affirmative, thanks ! [23:06] k1l: Version 45 attained [23:06] graps: ok. so please only use the ubuntu package managment from now on,. [23:07] k1l: Sounds good, will try that next time [23:08] This termbin is neat stuff [23:10] I originally wanted to see how to bake a potato with youtube, then after getting my firefox damaged, figured that all I had to do was put the potato in the oven, turn it on for a few minutes, and out would come a baked potato === Mob is now known as MobGod [23:12] Okay, thanks k1l, mcphail and all the rest ! Time to actually bake the potato [23:12] graps: bon appetit [23:13] pomme appetit === prometheus is now known as Guest88747 [23:24] Hey all, I just did a vgrename on an existing volgroup servername-os, I've renamed all of the mapper entries in fstab, but when I run update-grub it complains about missing mapper entries that reference the old volume group [23:24] are there any interim steps between vgrename, edit fstab to reflect new entries, and then update grub.cfg in /boot? [23:25] how to install qq [23:25] Hey, is it usual that I can send emails via telnet from my postfix/dovecot smtp without any auth? http://hastebin.com/ineqimigin.xml [23:26] send email? [23:28] black-vincy: seems like qq is a chinese software. maybe the guys in #ubuntu-cn know better [23:29] black-vincy: or look at this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/540875/how-to-install-qq-on-ubuntu-14-04 [23:29] hi, why are there mounted partitions after booting from a gparted live-cd? now I can't expand the extended partition that contains the lvm (it's on a virtalbox hard drive and it's locked); how do I unmount? it says mountpoint xubuntu-vg, and there's a root and a swap_1 partition in it (lvm) ... what would be the cli-command? [23:29] xuby: type "mount" and see what is mounted. [23:30] xuby: and see "free" if there is a swap used [23:30] corndoge: that will depend on how you have set it up [23:31] corndoge: it is certainly possible to be running without auth [23:31] sudo apt-get install wine? [23:31] mcphail, is it only 1 setting that I need to enable to forbid people from connecting to me and sending mails or multiple? [23:32] k1l: k thx, I'm gonna have to reboot, maybe will return later [23:33] corndoge: there are lots of different ways to set it up. I haven't set up postfix/dovecot for years, and shudder at the thought of doing it again. You'll need to do a bit of reading to make sure things are secure [23:33] Alright, general linux question: Is there an official way to know what apt-get command gets the program that I need? For example I want to install qt5, is the best way to just try to find possibly old apt-get commands via google? [23:33] that's not a general linux question, that's a general ubuntu/debian question :) [23:34] Phothrism: use "apt-cache search whatever" to get a list of possible packages [23:34] It just all seems much more impractical compared to just downloading the exe on a website [23:34] Phothrism: use "apt search searchword" to find stuff [23:34] Hmm let's see [23:34] Try packages.ubuntu.com, second search box. [23:35] Phothrism: if you use the package manager, dependecies and upgrades come for "free". Don't download random executables [23:35] First box searches names/descriptions, while the second searches contents. [23:35] apt-file will search for all matches in the repositories. apt-cache will only look at installed packages [23:35] Phothrism: ubuntu offers the service that it made software already working and not break other programs. [23:35] mcphail, yeah ive been trying that for hours and i think i have SASL set up properly now (as 250-AUTH) appears... but somehow I still can send mails without auth. Is there a keyword you could give me that I could search for? [23:35] Anyone know if there is a way to check the uplink and downlink speed of a PPPOE modem connection? [23:36] Ooh this is actually pretty nifty then. [23:36] guys, if you use the "new" apt command it will combine that. "apt search" [23:36] Is there a way to uninstall packages in case I install something that breaks stuff? [23:36] hggdh: that isn't correct [23:38] Phothrism: packages or other software you donwloaded somewhere? [23:38] packages [23:38] Phothrism: yes, you can remove those packages with "apt remove packagename". but the packages in the ubuntu repo are already made working with all other packages [23:39] Oh they are? So you mean I can just go around installing all the things just in case I need them? [23:40] corndoge: ages since I have done this. Have a look at "smtpd_relay_restrictions" in your postfix configurations. You might be set up to send from your own host without auth by default, but need auth from a different host [23:40] Phothrism: that is the idea behind that package system [23:40] *Some* packages are incompatible with certain others, but it's smart enough to not install them at the same time. [23:40] mcphail, thanks i'll check that [23:41] corndoge: but, honestly, don't take my advice on postfix configuration [23:41] Phothrism: since you have a german ip, you are german? [23:41] Yes [23:41] Phothrism: https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Paketverwaltung/ === maj is now known as Guest92077 [23:41] Oh thanks I'll take a look [23:41] Anyone know if there is a way to check the uplink and downlink speed of a PPPOE modem connection? [23:42] Phothrism: I can't really think of many examples in Ubuntu (haven't used it in a while), but over in, say, Debian, sysvinit-core and systemd-sysv can't be installed at the same time. APT is smart enough to remove one if you tell it to install the other. [23:45] Alright maybe package systems are pretty useful :P [23:52] Does anyone know how to get the newest qt (or at least version 5.5.0) installed? for some reason I only have version 5.2.1 [23:55] phoriwan, check the packaged version for your version of ubuntu [23:55] assuming it isnt 5.2.1 [23:55] Phothrism: for what ubuntu version? [23:55] you will be needing a PPA [23:55] For some reason Ubuntu's Display Manager isn't showing Unity8 as a DE option, any reason why? [23:55] nolsen, is it installed? [23:56] Yes [23:56] nolsen: its not installed by default [23:56] k1l: ._. [23:56] Err how do I find out my ubuntu version [23:56] I know that [23:56] nolsen: try this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity8inLXC [23:56] I don't like LXC. [23:56] Phothrism: "lsb_release -d" [23:56] lsb_release -d [23:56] I have unity-with-mir [23:56] o wait wrong window [23:57] unity8-with-mir I meant [23:57] It's ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS, I think it's the newest one via the website [23:57] nolsen: that is the suggested way, the unity and mir guys said. [23:57] k1l: It's already installed [23:57] but it's not an option [23:59] Oh I see [23:59] Phothrism: qt is a fundamental group of libraries on Ubuntu. Many packages depend on it. "Upgrading" qt can break thoise packages. So Ubuntu doesn't roll along with the latest qt packages - it picks one for each release and sticks with it, making sure all those other packages don't break. To get a newer qt, the only "safe" way is to use a newer Ubuntu release. There are other ways, but you are likely to break things if you don't know what you are doi [23:59] mcphail: indeed, badly stated. apt-file looks for files within packages [23:59] Oh I see
