[00:00] <Abe_> doesn't it depend which graphics card I have.
[00:00] <hep7> I once broke the os trying to install drivers manually
[00:00] <eurythmia> Hey folks, I'm running 15.10, and I'm having trouble with bluetooth ... I have a headset that will pair, but I'm only able to use the headset profile, not A2DP ... has anyone figured this out yet?
[00:00] <Abe_> I mean games work fine I most;y notice it in HD videos and Moving Windows
[00:00] <Abe_> mostly*
[00:01] <hep7> well thanks for help.  bye
[00:01] <Bashing-om> Abe_: Surely it do .. I had assumed a later card as you say you are in the Nvidia 352 .
[00:01] <Abe_> Bashing-om: Idk if its really a driver issue
[00:02] <Abe_> and like hep7 said. I keep my fingers away installing a different driver manually
[00:03] <Abe_> thats why I'm so interested in Mir
[00:06] <Bashing-om> Abe_: Staying within our repo is better in the long term. Sure saves one from a lot of problems, but IF you need to step over the line, you need to .
[00:08] <Abe_> I mean the screen tearing is not that BAD. I can live with it. took me even a while to notice it in the first place. And I don't want to cause more problems playing around installing different drivers. In games as example No screen tearing at all. well the video sequences do. but not the actual gameplay
[00:09] <mcphail> Abe_: at present, Mir doesn't work with proprietary drivers, and doesn't work with many graphical programs. I see nvidia have just released a mir-compatible driver. But I haven't heard any reports as to whether it works well with Mir. But X remains your best option for now
[00:10] <jjwaxxx> hi
[00:10] <Abe_> mcphail: seriously. I though Mir is finally going to replace X
[00:10] <mcphail> Abe_: it might, eventually
[00:11] <jjwaxxx> my kodi dont works
[00:11] <Abe_> cuz X is so old was written in 199x something
[00:11] <mcphail> Abe_: lots of good things were written in the 1990s. That's no reason to abandon something
[00:12] <jjwaxxx> its no true
[00:12] <Abe_> and I just blame X for the screen tearing. even though it still does a good job
[00:12] <Abe_> mcphail: at some point it is
[00:13] <mcphail> Abe_: the screen tearing issue is complex: partly X, partly the compositor, partly the graphics driver. You can go crazy trying to debug screen tearing
[00:14] <jjwaxxx> what are you doing??
[00:14] <soot_> what does a complete file path look like in the terminal?
[00:15] <Abe_> mcphail: thats why I'm not even trying fixing it anymore. I just live with it. like I said you have to have an eye to see it.
[00:15] <jjwaxxx> go to bed
[00:16] <soot_> ok
[00:16] <Abe_> soot_: /home/yourname/Videos ?
[00:16] <soot_> hm
[00:17] <jjwaxxx> there is a applop like youtube downloader
[00:17] <soot_> soot_@soot_: /home/things ?
[00:17] <Bashing-om> soot_: ONE instance " ls -al /etc/default/grub " where the file 'grub' resides in the directory 'default' under the directory 'etc' under the root of it all '/' .
[00:17] <abdussamad> أثسشسي
[00:17] <abdussamad> hellpo
[00:17] <abdussamad> hello
[00:18] <abdussamad> he
[00:18] <abdussamad> Hi
[00:18] <soot_> that isnt my question
[00:18] <abdussamad> Whats
[00:18] <abdussamad> ?
[00:18] <jjwaxxx> applop
[00:19] <abdussamad> Are You Hacker?
[00:19] <mcphail> abdussamad: hello. Please ask your Ubuntu support question and try not to spam the channel
[00:19] <abdussamad> OK YEAH
[00:19] <abdussamad> How To gparted on ubuntu
[00:19] <soot_>  it just starts with /home ?
[00:20] <jjwaxxx> g-gone
[00:20] <abdussamad> Mram Welcome
[00:20] <soot_> im just not used to the file system
[00:21] <jjwaxxx> xubuntu its a toy??
[00:21] <Abe_> soot_: if your not familiar don't put anything in your system files. just put all your junk in the home directory
[00:22] <soot_> software?
[00:22] <blueFive> Hello.
[00:22] <Abe_> soot_: use the software center to install software
[00:23] <soot_> yah... so where is it now?
[00:23] <Abe_> or do an sudo apt-get install
[00:23] <blueFive> If I remove BLUEMAN APLET from my Startup list, does it just not load the option of disabling my BT or does it not load the BT? I mean, if that's disabled, is BT disabled?
[00:23] <blueFive> What's a command I can type in the terminal to see the status of my Bluetooth?
[00:24] <jjwaxxx> sudo if hot
[00:24] <mcphail> jjwaxxx: stop spamming please
[00:24] <jjwaxxx> ok
[00:24] <Abe_> blueFive: i found this command "sudo service bluetooth status"
[00:25] <Abe_> if its on it should show something like this "bluetooth start/running, process 1074"
[00:26] <blueFive> It says ACTIVE (running)
[00:26] <blueFive> but in my taskbar I have it disabled.
[00:26] <blueFive> So how come it's not really disabled?
[00:27] <soot_> what is in the root dir that is so important i shouldnt mess with it?  : )
[00:27] <Abe_> you could theoretically kill the process number or not?
[00:27] <mcphail> !fhs | soot_
[00:28] <Abe_> type kill and the process number. all your processes are listet under the "top" command
[00:29] <Abe_> in my case it would be kill 1074. Im not sure but mine has a button to disable
[00:29] <blueFive> rfkill block bluetooth
[00:29] <blueFive> Is this a temporary command so that BT starts again when I restart?
[00:30] <blueFive> By the way, it seems Blueman just allows one to control BT.. it doesn't load BT itself, right?
[00:30] <Abe_> yes
[00:30] <blueFive> I have Blueman as one of my Startup Programs.
[00:30] <blueFive> If I remove it from Startup will Bt stop starting?
[00:31] <Guest36214> how does one use this, I'm lost
[00:31] <cfhowlett> "this"??? Guest36214
[00:31] <blueFive> I have this:
[00:31] <blueFive> 42 root      20   0       0      0      0 S   0.0  0.0   0:00.00 ecryptfs-kthrea
[00:31] <blueFive> This means I have ecryptfs loaded??
[00:32] <Abe_> does that help? http://askubuntu.com/questions/67758/how-can-i-deactivate-bluetooth-on-system-startup
[00:33] <blueFive> The program 'ecryptfs-setup-private' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
[00:33] <blueFive> If ecryptfs is not installed, how come I have ecryptfs-kthrea as an active process?
[00:33] <blueFive> What's going on?
[00:33] <Abe_> magic
[00:33] <Abe_> :D
[00:34] <Abe_> sorry idk where you not talking about bluetooth?
[00:35] <blueFive> Abe_, Yes, but moving on to ecryptfs for a moment.
[00:35] <blueFive> Since you had me open up my processes using TOP
[00:35] <blueFive> i've noticed ecryptfs-ktrea is active.
[00:35] <Abe_> I don't have an process like that
[00:36] <Abe_> we are probably under different Desktop Enviroments maybe. google the process whats it's for
[00:37] <jjwaxxx> byeeeeee
[00:37] <blueFive> PID is the process ID?
[00:37] <Abe_> yes
[00:37] <blueFive> How come when I Kill 42 it doesn't kill ecryptfs-kthrea?
[00:37] <rud0lf> omg 378 bans
[00:38] <blueFive> That's the process ID for ecryptfs-kthrea
[00:38] <Abe_> PID = Process ID
[00:38] <Abe_> i think thats how it is in my head
[00:38] <EOBeav> If I create an OEM drive, does it need to be installed on identical machines, or just anything that will run that will run ubuntu?
[00:38] <blueFive> I killed PID 42.
[00:39] <blueFive> I did sudo kill 42
[00:39] <blueFive> but when I view top now PID 42 is still active!
[00:39] <Abe_> what is the process for sound something with encryption  to me
[00:40] <blueFive> You sure you don't have ecryptfs-kthrea loaded?
[00:40] <blueFive> I don't know what it is exactly.
[00:40] <blueFive> I don't have ecryptfs installed..
[00:40] <blueFive> so why would I have that running?
[00:41] <Abe_> oh yes i do I apologize
[00:41] <Abe_> Process 54 - ecryptfs-kthrea
[00:41] <blueFive> Do you have your home dir encrypted?
[00:42] <blueFive> Is ecryptfs installed on your box?
[00:42] <Abe_> my hole hdd is LVM encrypted
[00:42] <mcphail> blueFive: you are confusing the "plumbing" system services with userland tools. Take some time to research the processes running on your system, as suggested by Abe_, rather than trying to kill them randomly.
[00:42] <chindy> anybody know where i can find the texmf directory?
[00:42] <chindy> or rather how to install latex packages?
[00:42] <blueFive> Abe, Type: sudo ecryptfs-setup-private
[00:43] <blueFive> Abe_, See if that says ecryptfs is installed or not.
[00:43] <Abe_> ecryptfs-setup-private: command not found
[00:43] <blueFive> Interesting.
[00:44] <blueFive> So it's not installed for both of us yet we both have ecryptfs-kthrea running as a process.
[00:44] <blueFive> I wonder why.
[00:44] <blueFive> Wait.
[00:44] <Abe_> like I said it has probably something to do with encryption on your hdd or your home folder oh wait hold on.
[00:44] <RobbieL811> What's up guys?  Anybody around in here w/ a Centrino 2230 network card?
[00:44] <blueFive> That command isn't right.
[00:45] <blueFive> Abe_, Try it without sudo before it.
[00:45] <blueFive> Abe_, Type this: ecryptfs-setup-private --undo
[00:45] <blueFive> Or do it without --undo if you like.
[00:46] <blueFive> For me it says: The program 'ecryptfs-setup-private' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
[00:46] <jefinc> a space even...
[00:46] <jefinc> err
[00:46] <jefinc> oops
[00:46] <blueFive> mcphail, So if ecryptfs-setup-private is not installed, why do I have ecryptfs-kthrea running as a process?
[00:46] <GeekDude> I just set up ubuntu server on one of my boxes. It didn't pick up the networking hardware during installation, but seemed to pick it up after installation. I had to manually go in and add 'auto eth0' 'iface eth0 inet dhcp' to /etc/network/interfaces though. Is that normal for network hardware that isn't detected during install?
[00:47] <mcphail> blueFive: because your kernel has been built with ecryptfs compatibility
[00:48] <mcphail> blueFive: you need to install the user-space tools if you actually want to use it
[00:48] <blueFive> Ah, I see. So it's effectively disabled.
[00:49] <blueFive> mcphail, Now, if I don't load Blueman at Startup does my Bluetooth module not start?
[00:49] <blueFive> OR do I simply not have the option of using Blueman to turn off the BT?
[00:50] <mcphail> blueFive: I don't use bluetooth, so I have no idea about that I'm afraid
[00:51] <blueFive> "With this command in rc.localm we are basically soft blocking Bluetooth at each start up time."
[00:51] <blueFive> What's soft blocking and does it mean the BT module is still running?
[00:52] <Abe_> blueFive: I can turn bluetooth off and on with one click in the taskbar
[00:53] <blueFive> Abe_, Yes, but I suspect when it's turned off that it's still really on.
[00:53] <Abe_> right click -> turn bluetooth off
[00:54] <Abe_> I don't think so. did you try to reach you pc over a different bluetooth device? can you still find your pc?
[00:54] <blueFive> Ah. You may be right.
[00:55] <blueFive> rfkill block bluetooth in the terminal is what that icon does when you turn it off.
[00:56] <Abe_> I mean my bluetooth is always on. even though I don't use it.. actually never worried about BT
[00:57] <blueFive> Abe_, Yes, but if it's not needed it can be causing interference and reducing battery life.
[00:57] <blueFive> Someone said completely disabling his BT gave him 30 mins more battery life.
[00:57] <blueFive> How come I type gksudo gedit /etc/rc.local in terminal I get a prompt to enter my password but the actual file doesn't open up?
[00:58] <blueFive> I think because gedit wasn't installed.
[00:58] <blueFive> Ah, now it's working.
[00:59] <blueFive> rfkill block bluetooth
[00:59] <blueFive> put this in that file and it will be disabled on startup.
[01:00] <Abe_> blueFive: I never use my battery. I use my laptop like a tower... have screen keyboard mouse connected. I took the battery out, I only use it If i really take my laptop anywhere. maybe load it for a liitle while and discharge it every month or so. cuz the battery is the first thing that dies in a laptop
[01:02] <blueFive> Abe, Ah, interesting.
[01:03] <blueFive> Abe, for home use I got a mini PC instead.
[01:03] <Abe_> and i dont think that bluetooth really sucks that much power, I would rather turn the screen brightness down
[01:03] <blueFive> If you don't need BT why would you want it on?
[01:04] <Abe_> cuz I have it :D idk. a cellphone has bluetooth most poeple don't turn it off either
[01:05] <blueFive> Abe_, Always nice to reduce radiowaves you don't need.
[01:05] <Abe_> don't get me wrong im not blaming you for turning it off. makes sense
[01:05] <blueFive> No need subjecting your body to extra EMF noise. Moreover it could be interfering with other electronics components.
[01:06] <blueFive> Someone said: Please don’t do this, it is a hack at best. Rather, edit: /etc/bluetooth/main.conf and set:
[01:06] <blueFive> InitiallyPowered = false
[01:06] <blueFive> Although InitiallyPowered isn't even an option in that file.
[01:06] <blueFive> I don't see what's wrong with running rfkill block bluetooth at startup.
[01:06] <blueFive> That's all the Blueman app does when you disable BT.
[01:07] <iAngeloHD> Hello?
[01:07] <cfhowlett> iAngeloHD, ask your ubuntu question
[01:07] <iAngeloHD> I installed lubuntu but now it screen tearing
[01:07] <Abe_> was never against turning it off
[01:07] <iAngeloHD> It has lines and stuff
[01:08] <blueFive> Abe_, No, I was saying in response to one of the comments that read:
[01:08] <blueFive> Someone said: Please don’t do this, it is a hack at best. Rather, edit: /etc/bluetooth/main.conf and set:
[01:08] <blueFive> InitiallyPowered = false
[01:09] <Abe_> iAngeloHD: are you using the noveau driver. click on the additional drivers and choose the nvidia graphics card driver and restart
[01:09] <Abe_> in system settings
[01:09] <blueFive> iAngeloHD, Why not try Voyager? It's based on Xubuntu. Because it's based on Xubuntu it has basically 3 teams doing the dev (buntu, Xubuntu, Voyager).
[01:10] <Abe_> then you can play around with the Nvidia X server settings to get better results
[01:11] <Abe_> or look online what other people have done to get you card running properly
[01:11] <blueFive> Abe_, http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=voyager
[01:11] <blueFive> Abe_, Why does it say this is based on Debian?
[01:11] <blueFive> Abe_, Is Ubuntu based on Debian?
[01:12] <blueFive> "Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian's architecture and infrastructure,"
[01:12] <blueFive> Interesting.
[01:13] <Tin_man> hello all, i've a question, I recently installed a ubuntu server 12.04 (I had the dvd), I've been leaning on a daily basis. It took me 2 days to finally get cups working, and mounting an such, but it's going ok. Today the elect went off, and I tried to ssh into my server,but port 22 was not reading. after reading and searching I logged in to a different private i.p. my question is how did it change from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.1.y?
[01:13] <Abe_> blueFive: yes it's based on debain
[01:14] <Abe_> ian*
[01:14] <Abe_> alot of distros are based on ubuntu which then are also based on debian. weird isn't it
[01:15] <blueFive> Yes. So with Voyager you have it based on Xubuntu.
[01:15] <blueFive> Xubuntu is based on Ubuntu and Ubuntu is based on Debian.
[01:15] <Abe_> xubuntu is based on ubuntu which is based on debian yes
[01:15] <vervet> Tin_man: did you set up static IP/address reservation or does it get assigned by DHCP?
[01:17] <Tin_man> don't know vervet, i've a router and the phone company assigns it i guess, but the private ones, i thought stayed the save
[01:17] <Tin_man> save = same
[01:17] <Abe_> I could never switch from kde again
[01:17] <blueFive> Abe_, " [Voyager Live]
[01:17] <blueFive> 	The developers of Voyager Live, a Debian-based distribution, have announced the release of Voyager Live X8. The new release of Voyager Live is based on Debian 8 "Jessie" and ships with Xfce 4.12 as the distribution's default desktop environment. According to the project's website, Voyager X8 ships with version 3.16 of the Linux kernel and seeks to gain performance by shipping with Xfce desktop environment."
[01:18] <cfhowlett> take it to #off-topic please, blueFive .  topic for this channel is **ubuntu** support.  thank you.
[01:18] <cfhowlett> !ot
[01:18] <vervet> Tin_man: often times but it's not guaranteed without those, you could either set up a dhcp address reservation (in which case your router would assign the server the same address)
[01:18] <Abe_> yes xfce is a lightweight desktop enviroment, thats why i don't use it. cuz my pc is not a lightweight
[01:19] <Tin_man> ok thanks vervet, i'll do some more studying.. been doing alot of that lately :)
[01:19] <blueFive> Abe_, You wouldn't notice a difference using XFCE vs KDE on your system?
[01:20] <Abe_> yes kde is better :D
[01:20] <vervet> Tin_man: or you could set the IP add. statically on the server, may be good to get familiar with that, you'll likely do that again in the future for a server - np :)
[01:20] <blueFive> Abe_, I meant in terms of performance.
[01:20] <Tin_man> ok again thanks vervet..
[01:20] <Tin_man> later all
[01:20] <mcphail> blueFive: please read ubottu's factoid above. Keep this channel for Ubuntu support questions. Other discussions go elsewhere. Thanks
[01:21] <asus> hi all
[01:22] <asus> is anybody running a powermac g5
[01:23] <Abe_> mcphail: let me answer quick okay. xfce would probably be faster yes. but I have no performance issues using kde on mine. it takes a little longer to boot up but it's fast. I need all those options and settings and features that I dont get with an xfce DE
[01:23] <squinty> asus,  yes no maybe    just state your problem    if someone can help they will reply
[01:24] <asus> want to put mate on mine stops half way
[01:40] <jonathan_xx> anyone experienced with Steam here?
[01:42] <squinty> !ask
[01:43] <gagalicious> is it advisable to use noatime option in mounting / root ?
[01:43] <jonathan_xx> yes and please don't treat me like a moron that doesn't know how to do things. K?
[01:45] <jonathan_xx> I asked a question, I don't need anyone messing with it.
[01:45] <somsip> jonathan_xx: hint - change your attitude or people just wont want to help you. Give details about your problem.
[01:45] <jonathan_xx> the people that say that stuff don't want to help to begin with, and I am not asking for those people.
[01:46] <somsip> jonathan_xx: state your real problem with steam
[01:46] <titanium17> I am very experienced in Steam
[01:46] <squinty> jonathan_xx,  the intention wasn't intended to make you feal like a "moron" (which in itself is a highly derogitive term) but was rather a response to your question which only had two possible answers   that is   yes or no
[01:46] <jonathan_xx> well thank you.
[01:46] <titanium17> But for windows.
[01:46] <jonathan_xx> oh....
[01:46] <jonathan_xx> squinty: you are incorrect, but I'm not getting ito that.
[01:47] <somsip> jonathan_xx: state your real problem (for the 3rd time)
[01:47] <jonathan_xx> will you just shut up?
[01:47] <squinty> jonathan_xx,  in other words, you would get a more positive responce by stating your actual problem
[01:47] <jonathan_xx> for the 3rd time?
[01:47] <jonathan_xx> you are a fucking turd person.
[01:47] <jonathan_xx> I do not need you.
[01:47] <squinty> getting pretty close to op's banning you
[01:48] <ianorlyn> jonathan_xx, I play mount and blade warband too much on steam but yes that is a way too broad queistion
[01:48]  * titanium17 is Steam expert
[01:49] <jonathan_xx> I did not ask any question, I asked if there were experience Steam people.
[01:49] <squinty> exactly which is a yes or no answer
[01:49] <jonathan_xx> of course not idiot, will you please shut up in response to my questions?
[01:50] <squinty> ops!
[01:50] <ianorlyn> jonathan_xx, you can play jimi hendrix music on ubuntu as well
[01:50] <squinty> !ops
[01:50] <anacrust> 1st time on IRC. I sent wrote in the #Django channel and immediately got a "* #django :Cannot send to channel" on the next line. I'm guessing my chat didn't go through?
[01:50] <blueFive> http://itsfoss.com/turn-off-bluetooth-by-default-in-ubuntu-14-04/
[01:50] <blueFive> Thoughts on this method to disable BT at startup?
[01:50] <blueFive> Someone says: "Please don’t do this, it is a hack at best. "
[01:50] <blueFive> What's wrong with it?
[01:52] <jonathan_xx> ianorlyn: I just have a random first steam game not working. The first errors indicated that i386 libraries were missing so I made pains to install them. Now it gets a bit further but it crashes with a core dump after creating a steamapps.txt file or something, that allows me to launch it from the console.
[01:53] <jonathan_xx> ianorlyn: it used to work before on an older 14.10 install of Kubuntu, same system also. Now I am in Kubuntu 16.04 and I just get a segmentation fault.
[01:54] <squinty> jonathan_xx,    type /topic   unbuntu+1 is for 16.04 enquiries not this channel
[01:54] <jonathan_xx> squinty: will you please mind your own business?
[01:54] <squinty> no
[01:54] <jonathan_xx> have nothing better to do I see than to bug people.
[01:55] <compdoc> they dont allow ppl to talk about non-released versions in here
[01:55] <jonathan_xx> just stfu if you have nothing better to say
[01:55] <jonathan_xx> not "they", YOU
[01:55] <compdoc> youre stupid
[01:55] <squinty> !ops jonathan_xx
[01:56] <jonathan_xx> ianorlyn: but the difference is also that I'm using the ubuntu supplied package currently instead of Steam's own. I haven't tested the game with the steam package yet, because it complained about being out of date.
[01:59] <jonathan_xx> ianorlyn: I am wondering if in general the steam version can make a difference in this? The game is Borderlands 2.
[01:59] <ianorlyn> I thought steam in the package auto updates itself
[02:00] <jonathan_xx> probably, but maybe there are differences in how the dependency libraries get installed?
[02:00] <cfhowlett> !steam | jonathan_xx
[02:00] <jonathan_xx> oh thanks, I didn't know there was an ubuntu-steam. I could not get into #steamlug.
[02:04] <Natedog> hello, when i went to install ubuntu beside my windows 8 , i clicked Something Else then resized my windows 8 ntfs partition, and acciently at same time changed ntfs to ext4 for the win partition instead of for the new free space partition. what do i need to do to be able to change the partitions back to orginal size and from ext4 to ntfs without losing data? can i just edit the partition table with gdisk and set orginal start and end
[02:04] <Natedog> sectors to the what i think the ntfs was and ext4 with automaticly become ntfs again Or do i need to delete the ext4 partition so the old ntfs is all raw space instead of being a two unwanted partitions ?
[02:05] <EOBeav> If I create an OEM drive, does it need to be installed on identical machines, or just anything that will run that will run ubuntu?
[02:05] <kellymi53a> I lost the bluetooth icon in my taskbar. How to get it back?
[02:05] <Natedog> it shows up as Raw partition, even though i didnt commit the changes and canceled the Something else install it broke win8 and wont boot
[02:05] <Natedog> or see data
[02:06] <kellymi53a> sudo systemctl disable bluetooth
[02:06] <kellymi53a> I typed this.
[02:06] <kellymi53a> So I'll type enable.
[02:09] <posi> What's the deal with installing a bunch of .apt files if it has a bunch of dependencies? Should I use dpkg? Can I use apt?
[02:10] <Natedog> do i need to delete the current incorrect partition first or do i just recover the old parttion listed in testdisk program without installing
[02:11] <Natedog> er without removing the incorrect one, like testdisk will change RAW to NTFS and two partitions back to one with the recovery
[02:11] <compdoc> Natedog, I think anything you do is likely to make it worse. you need expert software or a company that does recovery
[02:12] <Natedog> testdisk is listed as the program to use for ubuntu for this problem
[02:12] <freezer> why is iscsid running per default @ Ubuntu 16.04 Server?
[02:13] <squinty> freezer,  a
[02:14] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu+1 | freezer
[02:14] <squinty> freezer,  as per /topic 16.04  ->  #ubuntu+1
[02:15] <fyrril> can anyone translate this for me http://paste.ubuntu.com/15548282/ ? I'm getting grub recovery command on restart after removing a dual boot 14.04
[02:15] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: if the partition was not formatted by the installer
[02:15] <cfhowlett> EOBeav, I assume you mean create an OEM version?  In which case, the distro will run on  machines with identical specs  (drivers and such).
[02:15] <kellyiuu87> Hello.
[02:15] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: then you might be able to switch it back to NTFS if you know the sector boundaries like that.
[02:16] <kellyiuu87> Firefox is re-enabling bluetooth for me. I have it killed at startup.
[02:16] <kellyiuu87> Why is it doing this?
[02:16] <cfhowlett> fyrril, what OS remains on the machine
[02:16] <fyrril> win 10
[02:16] <cfhowlett> kellyiuu87, I can pretty much guarantee FFOX is not enabling bluetooth.  Doesn't have that ability
[02:16] <EOBeav> cfhowlett: Ok, so don't even try to install it on something else?
[02:16] <cfhowlett> fyrril, so only win10 remains?
[02:16] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: the partition type is not really important (for Linux). I would suggest restoring the size of the partition and then using a linux tool to mount it. If that works, and you can access your files, then you're done.
[02:17] <kellyiuu87> cfhowlett, But my Bluetooth was off until I opened FF.
[02:17] <cfhowlett> EOBeav, nope.  use a plain vanilla ubuntu for other machines
[02:17] <EOBeav> k, thx for the heads up.
[02:17] <cfhowlett> kellyiuu87, firefox doesn't have permissions to change your hardware settings
[02:17] <fyrril> cfhowlett, this is correct.
[02:17] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: if the partition was overwrittne with ext4 structure then you might be less lucky.
[02:18] <cfhowlett> fyrril, you might need to run windows boot repair.  ask in ##windows
[02:18] <Natedog> it didnt format as ext4, i cancel and it changed from NTFS to RAW
[02:18] <Natedog> but did still resize also
[02:18] <fyrril> cfhowlett, yeah I tried running the mbr fix from repair cd. Still getting the same issue unfortunately
[02:19] <cfhowlett> fyrril, mbr will not work.  your disk is EFI/gpt.  wrong tool
[02:19] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: it is not going to be "raw space" whatever you do. If only the partition table was altered but not the disk, then the actual disk contents was not changed.
[02:19] <fyrril> cfhowlett, that explains the EFI stuff I was reading then maybe
[02:19] <LonelyDanbo> the #winehq channel is no help. how do I uninstall Wine? It's not shown as installed in the software center, and I didn't compile it so I'm not sure it was "installed from source" unless I'm misinterpreting that.
[02:19] <cfhowlett> fyrril, indeed
[02:19] <cfhowlett> this my suggestion to ask #windows
[02:19] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: that means you are right in suggesting that simply restoring the partition table will give you your partition back (including all data).
[02:20] <fyrril> cfhowlett, in sda2 in that paste it shows the grub bootloder I think, is that what I want to remove?
[02:20] <cfhowlett> fyrril, I have never run windows in EFI/GPT and I am not the one to advise.  ##windows
[02:20] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: in order to use it in Windows, you may need to change the partition type as well.
[02:21] <fyrril> cfhowlett, copy that, thanks for the help
[02:21] <cfhowlett> LonelyDanbo, sudo apt-get purge wine^
[02:21] <LonelyDanbo> cfhowlett, thanks.
[02:21] <FCN> LonelyDanbo, almost everything you have installed you can uninstalled by the terminal apt
[02:21] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: NTFS is probably going to be 07
[02:21] <cfhowlett> happy2help! LonelyDanbo
[02:22] <Natedog> jonathan_xx, i do that from gdisk or testdisk
[02:22] <LonelyDanbo> ok. I'm just not that familiar with the system and worried about doing it wrong.
[02:23] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: personally I would do it from some Ubuntu boot/install disc, I am not familiar with those things. I would use cfdisk and/or gparted to change the ending sector of the NTFS partition. Then I would use either to change the type to 07. Then I would try mounting it in linux.
[02:24] <kellyiuu87> "sudo systemctl disable bluetooth"
[02:24] <kellyiuu87> Why won't this turn off the bluetooth?
[02:24] <DocPlatypus> is there some kind of trick I am missing to customizing the task bars in GNOME Classic? I can't find a place to change them to light text on dark background
[02:24] <jonathan_xx> Natedog: I really mean "parted".
[02:25] <DocPlatypus> kellyiuu87: what version of Ubuntu are you on? My 14.04 LTS doesn't have "systemctl"
[02:25] <kellyiuu87> 15.10.
[02:25] <kellyiuu87> But if it doesn't have it you can easily install it.
[02:26] <DocPlatypus> kellyiuu87: what DE are you using?
[02:26] <kellyiuu87> MATE.
[02:26] <jonathan_xx> in parted you can use "unit s" to get sectors, then use "p" to print the partition table, then use resizepart to resize a partition with sector numbers.
[02:26] <LonelyDanbo> Unable to locate package wine^
[02:26] <LonelyDanbo> was that a typo?
[02:27] <jonathan_xx> that was a typo
[02:27] <DocPlatypus> kellyiuu87: I don't have a Bluetooth adapter on this system, but on my GNOME Classic I can go to System Settings and Bluetooth is one of the options, and I immediately get the option to turn off Bluetooth
[02:27] <LonelyDanbo> hm. nope. "wine" doesn't work either.
[02:27] <DocPlatypus> (i.e. it would be available if I had the adapter installed)
[02:27] <kellyiuu87> DocPlatypus, Yes, but I want it off by default every time I boot.
[02:28] <kellyiuu87> DocPlatypus, sudo systemctl disable bluetooth
[02:28] <LonelyDanbo> how the hell is Wine running if it's not installed?
[02:28] <kellyiuu87> DocPlatypus, This says: "Removed symlink /etc/systemd/system/dbus-org.bluez.service."
[02:28] <kellyiuu87> DocPlatypus, But the bluetooth remains on.
[02:28] <kellyiuu87> How can that be?
[02:28] <jonathan_xx> LonelyDanbo: type "dpkg -l wine*" and or "apt list wine*"
[02:28] <jonathan_xx> that is -l for -L
[02:28] <DocPlatypus> kellyiuu87: what type of system? laptop, desktop? manufacturer, model?
[02:29] <DocPlatypus> it might be a manufacturer-specific quirk
[02:29] <kellyiuu87> DocPlatypus, Ubuntu Mate 15.10 desktop. MSI.
[02:29] <kellyiuu87> DocPlatypus, I typed sudo systemctl stop bluetooth
[02:29] <kellyiuu87> and it didn't stop bluetooth either.
[02:29] <kellyiuu87> BLUETOOTH OFF works.
[02:29] <kellyiuu87> Where do I go to put BLUETOOTH OFF in a startup command file?
[02:30] <DocPlatypus> kellyiuu87: /etc/rc.local maybe?
[02:30] <kellyiuu87> DocPlatypus, However when i put it in there it didn't work when I rebooted.
[02:30] <LonelyDanbo> if it says "un" that means not installed? and "ii" means installed? the "ii"s are wine-gecko and wine-mono and wine1.7 and winetricks.
[02:30] <kellyiuu87> Why would it work in the terminal but not in there?
[02:30] <kellyiuu87> I suspect that file is getting executed before something else is turning on Bluetooth.
[02:31] <DocPlatypus> kellyiuu87: I defer to anyone else who has an idea
[02:31] <jonathan_xx> LonelyDanbo: yes ii is installed
[02:31] <kellyiuu87> It looks like if I don't disable the actual bluetooth then in order to have it turned off at boot I need to have the command execute after everything else has loaded.
[02:31] <kellyiuu87> Not too soon because something is turning it on after the fact.
[02:32] <kellyiuu87> Better would be for Ubuntu to remember the state at which I last had my Bluetooth set.
[02:32] <LonelyDanbo> so how do I uninstall Wine?
[02:32] <kellyiuu87> Whether on or off when I last shut down the PC.
[02:32] <jonathan_xx> LonelyDanbo: un probably means uninstalled yes. There are other flags but I don't know them all. It seems you have to uninstall "wine1.7"
[02:32] <DocPlatypus> kellyiuu87: do you have onboard Bluetooth?
[02:32] <jonathan_xx> LonelyDanbo: apt remove wine1.7, or use "apt remove "wine*""
[02:32] <kellyiuu87> Yes.
[02:33] <DocPlatypus> #$%&. well there went my idea. I was hoping it was USB
[02:33] <LonelyDanbo> jonathan_xx, alright, thanks. It's hard to know which is the top one that removes all the others.
[02:33] <jonathan_xx> LonelyDanbo: in this case probably wine1.7
[02:33] <kellyiuu87> Why doesn't Ubuntu make it easy to disable the bluetooth automatically?
[02:33] <jonathan_xx> LonelyDanbo: but you're right.
[02:33] <kellyiuu87> Instead of having the user manually disable it each session?
[02:34] <jonathan_xx> kellyiuu87: if you can disable it with a comment, you can probably put it in a startup script, but I don't know.
[02:34] <jonathan_xx> kellyiuu87: command*.
[02:34] <ianorlyn> if it is a pcie card you take out the card
[02:34] <ianorlyn> but hopefully that won't turn wifi off it is a combo chip
[02:34] <kellyiuu87> jonathan_xx, Yes, but the startup script executes before something else is turning it on.
[02:35] <jonathan_xx> kellyiuu87: oh right. Well I don't know. Have to reboot now to see if that changes my Borderlands 2 thing.
[02:39] <xenial> helo

[02:43] <xenial> ok
[02:46] <Trioxin> if I add this repo, apt-get will still install x64 packages wherever it can right? sudo add-apt-repository ‘deb [arch=amd64,i386] http://mirrors.coreix.net/mariadb/repo/10.1/ubuntu wily main'
[02:47] <LonelyDanbo> "Virtual packages like 'wine-gecko' can't be removed" but the instructions for installing Wine say I have to remove them. It specifically mentions wine-gecko and wine-mono.
[02:47] <DocPlatypus> LonelyDanbo: find the package providing wine-gecko and remove that
[02:47] <LonelyDanbo> oh it says at the end to use autoremopve?
[02:48] <Bashing-om> Trioxin: Nope, Google has dropped all 32 bit support .
[02:48] <LonelyDanbo> I already uninstalled Wine1.7 but it didn't remove these others.
[02:48] <Bashing-om> !chrome-repo | Trioxin
[02:49] <jonathan_xx> LonelyDanbo: you sure you still have a problem? ;-).
[02:50] <DocPlatypus> I don't know whether to say "good riddance" or "that really sucks" to the end of 32-bit Chrome
[02:51] <LonelyDanbo> oh boy. I dunno. half the time I'm asking questions that can be answered by paying attention or doing another search, but I ask anyway.
[02:52] <DocPlatypus> anyway
[02:52] <DocPlatypus> is there some kind of beginner's guide to customizing the appearance of GNOME 3 / GNOME Classic?
[02:52] <LonelyDanbo> A lot of times it takes me a full day or two or more to work through these problems. the first time I tried to get everything running it took me I think at least 3 weeks.
[02:55] <dgarstang> Is this legit? "[ -z $BUILD_NUMBER ] && ( echo "Environment variable $BUILD_NUMBER not set." ; BUILD_NUMBER=0)" ?
[02:57] <jonathan_xx> LonelyDanbo: anything else I can help you with at this point?
[02:57] <LonelyDanbo> no, sorry to distract you.
[03:00] <jonathan_xx> LonelyDanbo: not sure that was a bad thing, but okay ;-) ^^.
[03:01] <LonelyDanbo> was just waiting for my system to stop being busy with the HD before I restarted just in case I needed to do that before {re}installing
[03:08] <RedShirt> Hello.
[03:17] <posi> What's the deal with installing a bunch of .apt files if it has a bunch of dependencies? Should I use dpkg? Can I use apt?
[03:21] <Bashing-om> posi: 'dpkg' does not do package management .. just installs as told .. Apt however does the package management thing .
[03:22] <posi> Bashing-om: does that work? wont apt complain if i just give it a bunch of  file names instead of names?
[03:22] <posi> also apt vs apt-get isntall
[03:23] <Bashing-om> posi: Apt installs packages. and 'apt' is the updated 'apt-get' . apt has a few added features and is faster .
[03:25] <jonathan_xx> My game problem was caused by the nVidia driver (361.28) I needed to put "__GLVND_DISALLOW_PATCHING=1 %command%" in the options box for the game, thanks.
[03:25] <jonathan_xx> posi: I don't know what you mean with .apt files. Do you mean .deb files?
[03:26] <jonathan_xx> posi: You use dpkg to install .deb files, and apt (or apt-get) interfaces with remote repositories.
[03:26] <jonathan_xx> posi: I don't know if dpkg will use apt to resolve dependencies.
[03:27] <jonathan_xx> I found my answer on the forum for the game itself. Someone knew the answer. Gearbox forums.
[03:28] <jonathan_xx> And it had nothing to do with #ubuntu+1 as suspected.
[03:29] <jonathan_xx> Which means that would just have been a waste of time to begin with, going there first. Right? Right.
[03:30] <jonathan_xx> For the simple reason that those Nvidia 361.28 drivers are on 15.10 as well.
[03:30] <posi> jonathan_xx: so there's no process to use .deb files which rely on remote requirements?
[03:30] <posi> I feel like i've done that before
[03:31] <jonathan_xx> posi: I'm not aware of that, maybe someone knows.
[03:31] <posi> .deb files yea
[03:31] <posi> not .apt
[03:31] <jonathan_xx> posi: if you know the package dependencies, you can manually use apt of course to get them.
[03:32] <posi> i thought there's some process where you can dpkg, and then run some other set of apt commands to install the dependencies?
[03:32] <jonathan_xx> posi: I just had a game that didn't run, at first very annoying. At first the issue is that the 64-bit version of some libraries were installed, but not the 32-versions.
[03:33] <jonathan_xx> posi: but after the first 2 missing libraries, apt installed a whole bunch of others, and then the library problem was solved.
[03:34] <Bashing-om> posi: For an instance : wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.12.20-trusty/linux-headers-3.12.20-031220-generic_3.12.20-031220.201405160935_i386.deb ; sudo dpkg -i linux*.deb ......
[03:35] <posi> sure
[03:35] <posi> just didn't know if you had a short hand for get this deb and install all the debs
[03:38] <superstraw> hi.  where do i go to disable gpg-agent from loading on boot?
[03:38] <jonathan_xx> posi: I'm not sure, you could create a script pretty fast for it based on dpkg -I for instance, but.....
[03:40] <posi> cool that's helpful glad to know it's easier than i remember to do with dpkg. I'll go play now
[03:41] <jonathan_xx> I mean you'd still need to write the script but it should be a capability of dpkg to begin with
[03:43] <jonathan_xx> dpkg-deb -f <deb file> depends          <-- these are all the depends
[03:47] <superstraw> nevermind, found what i was looking for:  I have a script that decrypts via gpg, and when in ubuntu the dang gui pops up asking for my passphrase (which is annoying af) so I figured I'd kill it, but I found that in gpg.conf you can change "use-agent" to "no-use-agent" and the gui won't pop up any more.  (in case anyone else was wondering).
[03:48] <Abe_> my drive name changed from "External Harddrive" to "External Harddrive1" why?
[03:49] <Abe_> I actually see now both under /media "External Harddrive" (could not enter), External Harddrive1 works. but I see 2 folders. there should be only one
[03:50] <Abe_> why did it come up with +1
[03:52] <Abe_> confusing cuz now I have to change all my thing here to the +1 one
[03:53] <Abe_> annoying
[03:56] <linocisco> hi , I am using Ms Exchange email using Exquila . how to backup all exchange emails so that I can import from other email systems?
[03:57] <superstraw> linocisco: are you using exquila with thunderbird to hit a ms exchanger server?
[03:58] <linocisco> superstraw, absolutely correct
[03:59] <linocisco> superstraw, my 60 days free trial is expired, now using session license
[03:59] <superstraw> ah.  I used to have that setup but abandoned it due to exquila, for some reason, constantly thrashing my disk.  Ah, and the license expired, that's right! i remember now.  I ended up using "davmail" and thunderbird -- free.  and no disk/cpu issues.  but anyways, back to your question
[04:01] <superstraw> So, you don't keep your emails on the exchange server, but you download them to your email client and delete them from the server?
[04:01] <rk> how do i redirect one site to another using hosts file? currently, i have this. (ip of site i want to redirect to) (domain name of the site i want to redirect). 185.90.29.1:443 google.com
[04:02] <Abe_> and i dont wanna hav 2 mount points for one hhd
[04:02] <Abe_> hdd
[04:02] <jonathan_xx> posi: Here is a crude way to get a list of packages you can feed to apt. I'm sure there is a better way:
[04:02] <jonathan_xx> posi: dpkg-deb -f <deb file> depends | sed -e "s/,//g" -e "s/([^)]*)//g" -e "s/[^ ]\+\s\+|\s\+[^ ]\+//g"
[04:02] <superstraw> Abe_: manually mount them or edit your fstab file maybe?
[04:02] <posi> ah right
[04:03] <posi> that's what i was doing
[04:03] <jonathan_xx> it filters the ones that have branches (multiple choices)
[04:03] <jonathan_xx> and then you can do apt install $( command )
[04:03] <superstraw> linocisco: because when I was messing with the email stuff I just changed clients totally and my emails were still on the server.  archived ones included.  might just have been our biz's setup though.
[04:03] <jonathan_xx> seems rather stupid though to do it this way.
[04:04] <superstraw> fooey, gotta run, bbl
[04:04] <jonathan_xx> every script you write, someone else hasn't written.
[04:07] <Abe_> i just see file system things there like boot ext2 and ext4 my external should be ntfs.
[04:07] <Abe_> in fstab
[04:09] <Abe_> aaa i see what you mean now
[04:10] <Abe_> I need to add to it

[06:03] <gfixler> I'm trying to install Autodesk Maya, but having some package dependency issues
[06:04] <gfixler> the internet says to install these for Maya: sudo apt-get install -y gcc libssl1.0.0 libssl-dev libjpeg62 alien csh tcsh libaudiofile-dev libglw1-mesa elfutils libglw1-mesa-dev mesa-utils xfstt ttf-liberation xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi ttf-mscorefonts-installer libfam0 libfam-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0
[06:04] <gfixler> when I do, I get this output:
[06:04] <gfixler> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[06:04] <gfixler>  elfutils : Depends: libasm1 (>= 0.132) but it is not going to be installed
[06:04] <gfixler>             Depends: libdw1 (= 0.158-0ubuntu5.2) but it is not going to be installed
[06:04] <gfixler>             Depends: libelf1 (= 0.158-0ubuntu5.2) but 0.160-0ubuntu2.1 is to be installed
[06:04] <gfixler> E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
[06:05] <gfixler> am I back?
[06:06] <gfixler> yay - guess I can't send 4 lines at once
[06:06] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: http://askubuntu.com/questions/392806/installing-maya-on-ubuntu-linux
[06:06] <lee_j750jm> hello all
[06:07] <gfixler> lotuspsychje: yeah, I've read lots of May-on-Ubuntu things (this one is 3 years out of date)
[06:07] <gfixler> I've also installed older versions of Maya several times on Ubuntu - usually a painful process
[06:07] <gfixler> but now I'm stuck with dependency issues I've not faced before, and google isn't helping much
[06:08] <gfixler> e.g. apt-mark showholds shows nothing, though that error says I have held packages
[06:08] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: is there a maya forum on their site? perhaps contact the maintainer?
[06:08] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: maya isnt really an official ubuntu package right
[06:08] <gfixler> right
[06:09] <gfixler> it's released as RPMs, so you have to the alien conversion dance
[06:09] <gfixler> so they don't help much on the official forums
[06:09] <gfixler> it's mostly a users-fend-for-themselves thing on Ubuntu
[06:09] <gfixler> but my question isn't really maya at this point - it's just about these linux package conflicts
[06:09] <gfixler> need to fix them so I can back to fighting with Maya :)
[06:10] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: did you try blender as alternative?
[06:10] <gfixler> lotuspsychje: not an option - I'm in the industry, and we use only Maya
[06:10] <gfixler> 20 years of Maya files/knowledge to get back to
[06:11] <lotuspsychje> !alis | gfixler maybe a specific channel for it?
[06:11] <gfixler> alright, if you guys don't want to help I'll keep looking
[06:11] <gfixler> Maybe #linux?
[06:12] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: its not that we dont wanna help, but we can only support official packages
[06:12] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: sure ##linux
[06:12] <gfixler> libasm1 isn't official?
[06:13] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: wich ubuntu version are you on?
[06:15] <gfixler> lotuspsychje: not sure - nothing says
[06:15] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: lsb_release -a
[06:15] <gfixler> 14.10
[06:15] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: is end of life mate
[06:15] <gfixler> lotuspsychje: alright, I'll keep looking - thanks
[06:15] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: install a supported ubuntu version from our topic please
[06:16] <gfixler> lotuspsychje: that might actually fix the dependency issues, now that I think of it
[06:16] <gfixler> I'll give it a shot
[06:16] <gfixler> (thought I was at least 15 something)
[06:16] <lotuspsychje> !usn | gfixler see also security risks of using eol
[06:17] <gfixler> I might be thinking of my laptop - I think that's 15.4 or 15.10
[06:17] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: 15.04 is also end of life
[06:17] <gfixler> that was fast
[06:17] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: you say you are in production..better be carefull mate
[06:17] <gfixler> no, this is my home PC
[06:17] <lotuspsychje> gfixler: maybe choose an LTS version?
[06:17] <gfixler> we're Windows at work, sadly
[06:19] <crocodilehunter> Hi all..
[06:19] <crocodilehunter> Can someone please tell me how to temporarily change my DNS nameserver?? Will /etc/resolve.conf do anything??
[06:20] <poradax> hey
[06:20] <vbotka> crocodilehunter, yes, /etc/resolve.conf is the right place
[06:20] <poradax> correct
[06:20] <crocodilehunter> Cheers...
[06:22] <vbotka> crocodilehunter, /etc/resolve.conf is the correct name of the file (without e in the end)
[06:22] <poradax> correct
[06:22] <crocodilehunter>  Thanks people!
[06:22] <vbotka> /etc/resolv.conf
[06:23] <crocodilehunter> My ISP's DNS server has gone down, so I will try and use google's 8.8.8.8 and see if it works..
[06:28] <dax_bash> hi
[06:29] <Flannel> hi dax_bash
[06:29] <poradax> hello baby
[06:30] <skywhale> Anyone know of a list of graphics driver ppas for ubuntu?
[06:33] <hateball> skywhale: For nvidia, this is "the" PPA https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[06:33] <linocisco> what is the best VM on ubuntu host?
[06:34] <linocisco> lightweight and fast
[06:34] <linocisco> KVM is known to be good. but configuration sucks
[06:36] <skywhale> hateball: that'll work for one system, but i have two AMD ones as well :(
[06:37] <skywhale> linocisco: virtualbox is slow and simple, KVM incredibally powerful, GPU passthrough is neat, there's some GUI tools for it
[06:37] <Nene1> what is this line refs to ----> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse
[06:38] <linocisco> skywhale, even there is GUI tools, configuration is not clear. is there any site or video I can see?
[06:38] <Nene1> trusty-security means all security updates???
[06:41] <skywhale> linocisco: the fedora wiki has some stuff, web hosting info sites are a good source too
[06:41] <linocisco> skywhale, I dont understand
[06:43] <skywhale> What's with no fglrx support in 16.04? AMD just released new drivers(Vulkan suppot!!) and now they won't be in repo...
[06:49] <abid> I installed compiz config setting manager..without setting it up i did disable the ubuntu unity..now however i remove the compiz.but cant get the ubuntu unity again..so how could i ?
[06:50] <colin_> where i can find arm-linux-gcc
[06:51] <skywhale> colin_: GCC ARM compiler?
[06:51] <colin_> yes
[06:51] <colin_> can you help me?
[06:51] <colin_> who can give me a web address
[06:52] <colin_> who can give me a web address to download arm-linux-gcc
[06:53] <colin_> skywhale, can you help me ?
[06:53] <skywhale> colin_: use apt-cache search gcc-arm, there's some in repo
[06:54] <abid_>  I installed compiz config setting manager..without setting it up i did disable the ubuntu unity..now however i remove the compiz.but cant get the ubuntu unity again..so how could i ?
[06:56] <colin_> skywhale, 3Q, i get what i want
[06:58] <hateball> skywhale: Vulkan support should be in amdgpu from what I understand
[07:04] <colin_> how to login ubuntu windows with root
[07:04] <ikonia> you don't
[07:04] <ikonia> the root user is disabled
[07:06] <lapyo> with ctrl+alt+f1
[07:08] <skywhale> sudo su
[07:09] <skywhale> gives root console, you don't want to run root gui
[07:10] <Seveas> you don't want sudo su either. You want sudo -i
[07:10] <lapyo> su root
[07:21] <colin_> ubuntu how enable root?
[07:22] <ikonia> you don't
[07:22] <ikonia> colin_: what is it your actually trying to do ?
[07:23] <lapyo> if you don't know how to do it, most likely you don't need it
[07:23] <colin_> ikonia: i want launch ubuntu xwindow with root
[07:24] <ikonia> colin_: you can't do that - why do you need that ?
[07:24] <ikonia> (well technically you can, but it breaks the ubuntu secuirty config)
[07:27] <colin_> tty can not support Chinese
[07:27] <colin_> ikonia: tty can not display Chinese
[07:27] <colin_> :(
[07:27] <ikonia> colin_: ok - so you don't need to login as root for that
[07:28] <ikonia> you just need to install the appropriate tools to display chinese language
[07:28] <colin_> well
[07:28] <miki> hello

[07:44] <trijntje> EriC^^: This is the rule I have http://pastebin.com/f0K2fqZg
[07:44] <EriC^^> Guest47110: yes, 15.04 is eol now (dead)
[07:44] <Guest47110> which version on ubuntu you have
[07:44] <EriC^^> 14.04
[07:44] <Guest47110> server or
[07:45] <ikonia> balr0g: why are you running boot repair to access a hard sisk ?
[07:46] <mika__> Hmm if i want to make bash script what will launch when USB is inserted. Should i try to do udev rule for this or is there easier way?
[07:46] <balr0g> ikonia, not sure, just searching on how to repair that disk got this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[07:47] <ikonia> does the name "boot" repair not give a clue as to what it's doing
[07:47] <EriC^^> trijntje: can you paste lsusb?
[07:47] <ikonia> it's trying to repair your boot disk/process
[07:47] <ikonia> balr0g: let me guess, this is an NTFS Windows disk you're trying to write to
[07:47] <trijntje> EriC^^: Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0781:5583 SanDisk Corp.
[07:48] <balr0g> ikonia, so, must i search: linux hard disk repair? ... ikonia i have "dual" boot with GRUB, Windows stopped suddenly
[07:49] <EriC^^> trijntje: type dmesg | tail | grep Vendor
[07:49] <EriC^^> after you plug the usb in
[07:49] <EriC^^> trijntje: dmesg | tail -40 | grep Vendor
[07:49] <ikonia> balr0g: answer the quesiton
[07:50] <balr0g> ikonia, so... in disk-repair report there are errors, like in the image trying to mount the disk: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15549847/ + https://i.imgur.com/NXZpbMX.png
[07:50] <ikonia> I'm not interested in disk-repair reports
[07:50] <ikonia> please answer the question
[07:50] <balr0g> ikonia, no, im not trying to write, i just trying to mount it...
[07:50] <ikonia> balr0g: but it is a windows NTFS disk yes ?
[07:50] <balr0g> ikonia, yes
[07:51] <ikonia> balr0g: right - so if you read that error you've pasted you'll find windows has marked the disk as "dirty" which linux won't allow you to mount incase mounting a dirty disk does damage
[07:51] <trijntje> EriC^^: [ 3103.574073] usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0781, idProduct=5583
[07:51] <ikonia> balr0g: so if you boot into windows and chkdsk the drive, you'll remove the dirty bocker - or get the error as to why it's dirty
[07:52] <EriC^^> trijntje: nothing in ls /tmp ?
[07:52] <balr0g> ikonia, ok, i was just trying to recover from linux, im goint to reboot the machine then...
[07:52] <balr0g> ikonia, thanks for help...
[07:52] <trijntje> EriC^^: no
[07:53] <balr0g> ikonia, i hope chkdsk works... see you o/
[07:54] <EriC^^> trijntje: that's odd
[07:55] <trijntje> EriC^^: yeah. Should I do something to trigger udev to look for the new rule or something?
[07:55] <EriC^^> nope
[07:55] <EriC^^> what's the file called?
[07:56] <trijntje> /etc/udev/rules.d/100-sandisk.rules
[07:57] <EriC^^> trijntje: try sudo service udev status
[07:58] <Ron11> Hi
[07:58] <Ron11> I am using ubuntu 14.04 lte
[07:59] <Ron11> I open the port 1984 and try to telnet 172.23.76.73 1984
[07:59] <Ron11> but I am getting telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[07:59] <Ron11> What can I do?
[07:59] <EriC^^> how'd you open the port?
[08:00] <Ron11> sudo ufw enable
[08:00] <Ron11> sudo ufw allow 1984/tcp
[08:00] <EriC^^> ok, so what's listening on that port?
[08:00] <trijntje> EriC^^: hm, after restarting udev it does create the file in /tmp
[08:00] <Ron11> tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:1984          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN
[08:01] <EriC^^> Ron11: yes but no program is listening on it
[08:01] <Ron11> wierd
[08:02] <EriC^^> Ron11: try nc -lv -p 1985
[08:02] <EriC^^> and in another window nc localhost 1985
[08:03] <Ron11> yes?
[08:03] <EriC^^> does it connect?
[08:03] <Ron11> yes
[08:04] <EriC^^> trijntje: odd, udev should look for it automatically
[08:04] <Ron11> but is's 1985
[08:04] <Ron11> no 1984
[08:04] <EriC^^> Ron11: yes same thing
[08:04] <Ron11> in 1984, nc: Address already in use
[08:04] <Ron11> in 1985, it's connect
[08:05] <balr0g> ikonia, hello, i just tried to boot on Windows NTFS from grub, and it just stops, i cannot press F8 or anything to enter Safe Mode...
[08:05] <Ron11> 1985, not define in my ufw
[08:05] <Ron11> weird
[08:06] <balr0g> hello, can anybody please help with this HD issue? thanks. i need to mount and save some files... http://paste.ubuntu.com/15549847/ + https://i.imgur.com/NXZpbMX.png

[08:07] <Ron11> nrpe    1270 nagios    5u  IPv4  11353      0t0  TCP localhost:1984 (LISTEN)
[08:08] <EriC^^> Ron11: ok, nrpe is running
[08:08] <Ron11> yes
[08:08] <Ron11> I don't know what is the problem
[08:09] <Ron11> because I can't use telnet
[08:09] <Ron11> although as you can see I can see the port is open
[08:09] <Ron11> and run
[08:10] <Ron11> What can I do EriC^^
[08:10] <Ron11> ?
[08:11] <ikonia> why do you think the port is open ?
[08:12] <ikonia> it's only listening on "localhost"....how do you expect to connect remotely
[08:12] <Ron11> ok
[08:12] <Ron11> What can I do to open it remotely?
[08:13] <ikonia> what do you mean ?
[08:15] <Nene1> how to setup a new repo with only security updates???
[08:16] <trijntje> balr0g: you could ask in ##windows, since windows locked the disk
[08:16] <balr0g> ok trijntje
[08:20] <Nene1> trijntje: ^^ any idea??
[08:21] <trijntje> Nene1: you can choose to only install security updates, that would be a lot easier then setting up your own server

[09:08] <leeyaa> hi
[09:08] <leeyaa> what is a good way to cleanup a system from unused old dependancies ?
[09:09] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: can you tell us whats your situation please?
[09:09] <trijntje> sudo apt-get autoremove
[09:09] <debug-> hey guys
[09:09] <lotuspsychje> debug-: welcome, how can we help you?
[09:09] <leeyaa> lotuspsychje: i found lots of servers have packages that they do not need. after i remove the packages i want to make sure nothing unused is left on the system
[09:10] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: ubuntu version?
[09:10] <leeyaa> just not sure how to do it with apt
[09:10] <leeyaa> 14.04
[09:10] <debug-> i would like to know.. when 16.04 is ready, will we able to upgrade from 14.04?
[09:10] <DaleK5whr> sudo apt-get autoremove can be dangerous, would never recommend it as it will remove things that are being used.
[09:10] <lotuspsychje> debug-: around april 21
[09:10] <leeyaa> DaleK5whr: yeah i learned that the hard way
[09:10] <debug-> also i wanted to know if there's a way to install ubuntu phone in samsung galaxy grand 2
[09:10] <lotuspsychje> debug-: when it hist final, you will be able to upgrade safely
[09:11] <leeyaa> i plan to unify all my systems. but first need to cleanup the source systems as they have tons of crap
[09:11] <leeyaa> seems like apt is not very good at handling old dependancies
[09:11] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: ppa's removal and sudo apt-get update are good idea also
[09:11] <debug-> thanks guys. i'm making an app, i'd like to launch it in ubuntu phone as well
[09:11] <lotuspsychje> !touch | debug-
[09:11] <trijntje> leeyaa: it might be easier to start from ubuntu mini, and only install what you want
[09:11] <leeyaa> lotuspsychje: we stick to default ppas
[09:12] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: i also use bleachbit to cleanup systems
[09:12] <lotuspsychje> !info bleachbit | leeyaa
[09:12] <leeyaa> lotuspsychje: cant apt do it without extra software ?
[09:13] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: depends what your specific issue is...
[09:13] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: can you pastebin us whats going on exactly?
[09:13] <leeyaa> lotuspsychje: the problem i want to solve is cleanup anything unused or not needed from old dependancies
[09:14] <leeyaa> lotuspsychje: nothing is going on, im just researching for now ;p
[09:14] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: yes, but the output would also be handy
[09:16] <leeyaa> lotuspsychje: here is an example: i have a router, it has some packages installed, some i need, some i dont, heck it has even firefox installed for some reason. i want to get the full picture first - what has pulled firefox or who and then after i remove firefox i want to make sure nothing is left from it
[09:17] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: uninstall the packages you dont need? sudo apt-get purge...
[09:17] <neure> when i try to install font in 15.10, i get install failed
[09:17] <neure> any idea why?
[09:17] <leeyaa> lotuspsychje: and that will remove anything related to that package? what about dependancies that are shared with other packages?
[09:17] <lotuspsychje> !fonts | neure
[09:17] <trijntje> leeyaa: removing firefox will also remove any packages that depend (ie installed) firefox in the first place. And apt-get autoremove will remove all packages that were installed because they were needed by packages that are no longer there. I don't see how that would break stuf to be honest
[09:18] <lotuspsychje> trijntje: +1
[09:18] <leeyaa> trijntje: sometimes it does. not a good idea to run it on important machine
[09:18] <neure> lotuspsychje, except it wont say "Installed", it says "Install failed"
[09:19] <neure> so, any ideas?
[09:19] <leeyaa> it appears there is no good way to do this cleanup without digging into it myself
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: well if you have a weird case about a specific dependecie, come back and ask ok?
[09:20] <leeyaa> is it possible to check what has pulled a specific dependancy ?
[09:20] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: cleaning means purge/uninstall packages the official way
[09:20] <trijntje> leeyaa: if a program depends on a package, but hasn't listed that package as a debian dependency, its a bug. Just using apt-get remove and apt-get autoremove does what you want in normal cases
[09:20] <leeyaa> trijntje: and if dependancy is shared with another package it wont be removed, right ?
[09:21] <leeyaa> i mean another package that is instaleld
[09:21] <leeyaa> installed*
[09:21] <trijntje> leeyaa: correct
[09:21] <leeyaa> i see
[09:21] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: unless you have external ppa's, manual unofficial packages installed etc
[09:21] <leeyaa> lotuspsychje: we stick to official ppas only
[09:22] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: ok great!
[09:22] <trijntje> leeyaa: if you do run into problems, be sure to file a bug and tag it 'packaging'
[09:22] <leeyaa> trijntje: will do
[09:22] <leeyaa> thanks
[09:22] <lotuspsychje> leeyaa: try bleachbit also, it cleans up a system pretty well :p
[09:23] <leeyaa> lotuspsychje: i dont trust 3rd party software
[09:23] <leeyaa> well
[09:23] <leeyaa> that means i have to research it and i dont have time :D
[09:23] <lotuspsychje> !info bleachbit | leeyaa =official package
[09:29] <bartaner> Hey folks, after having some trouble setting up ProFTPd with FTPS/TLS I noticed that the ProFTPd version in Ubuntu 14.04 (1.3.5-rc3) has a bug that has been fixed in later version (http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4108)
[09:30] <bartaner> Is that something I should report on the Ubuntu bugtracker?
[09:31] <root> welcome
[09:31] <Guest10195> 1
[09:33] <gzoo> bartaner, hmm, I'm not sure, it's been a while since I played with launchpad but I guess you can either open an issue asking them to update or just mail the maintainer directly
[09:39] <jak2000> anyone tested how to send email with openssl? i try: https://taufanlubis.wordpress.com/2016/02/08/how-to-send-email-via-gmail-server-using-openssl/   and  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1516754/connecting-to-smtp-gmail-com-via-command-line  not worked :(
[09:43] <TheHackOps> This is not meant as a rant but it seems every new version of ubuntu, overall stability goes up but graphics stability goes waay down
[09:43] <TheHackOps> E.g anything that uses graphics / graphics card becomes crash happy or even crashes the system itself
[09:43] <TheHackOps> An U doing something "wrong"
[09:43] <TheHackOps> i*
[09:45] <Ron11> someone install here nagios on ubuntu 14.04 lte?
[09:45] <p0ff3> What's up with my eclipse not having JUnit, I thought it was default?
[09:45] <bartaner> gzoo: thanks, guess I'll contact the maintainer directly then.
[09:47] <deep> Hi all! i am using Ubuntu 15.10 on hp ac120tx laptop
[09:47] <deep> i am a newbie. I am facing a problem. Wifi disconnects after 3-4 minutes
[09:48] <deep> sometimes it doesn't show available networks , someone please help
[09:49] <lotuspsychje> deep: wich wifi chipset si this?
[09:50] <lotuspsychje> TheHackOps: ubuntu version? graphics card chipset? driver loaded?
[09:51] <deep> lotuspsychje: can you tell me how to see the chipset? i've just installed ubuntu yesterday
[09:51] <lotuspsychje> deep: pastebin sudo lshw -C network please
[09:51] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, 15.10, XFX 280x, Open Source One
[09:51] <lotuspsychje> p0ff3: maybe the #eclipse guys might know?
[09:52] <lotuspsychje> TheHackOps: is that nvidia or amd?
[09:52] <TheHackOps> AMD
[09:52] <TheHackOps> ATI
[09:52] <lotuspsychje> TheHackOps: using radeon or amdgpu?
[09:52] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, Do you know where I can get source for kden live, I am going to try and fix this segfault myself
[09:52] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, radeon
[09:53] <TheHackOps> http://xfxforce.com/en-us/products/amd-radeon-r9-200-series/amd-radeon-r9-280x-black-double-dissipation-edition-r9-280x-tdbd
[09:53] <TheHackOps> I used to be able to play all my linux steam games perfect, WAAY faster than on windows
[09:53] <TheHackOps> And my video editing was also epic, now everything crashes my system
[09:53] <lotuspsychje> TheHackOps: things got wrong after what?
[09:54] <TheHackOps> I would say, 13.10
[09:54] <TheHackOps> That was the last rock solid build for me
[09:54] <lotuspsychje> p0ff3: install an ubuntu version from topic first please
[09:54] <lotuspsychje> !14.10 | p0ff3
[09:54] <deep> lotuspsychje: here is the link - http://paste.ubuntu.com/15550301/
[09:55] <lotuspsychje> TheHackOps: did you try a clean install yet?
[09:55] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, Yea quite a few times
[09:55] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, I have even does some deep debugging
[09:55] <TheHackOps> I actually found the issue so to speak
[09:56] <TheHackOps> I pin pointed the issue on a kernel module that deals with power management of the card
[09:56] <lotuspsychje> TheHackOps: ok, in your case you could also test 16.04 development version, just to see how radeon performs there
[09:56] <TheHackOps> I tried many things to disable it
[09:56] <TheHackOps> How ever it still seemed to kick in
[09:56] <TheHackOps> My last hope would be to recompile ubuntu without that kernel module
[09:58] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, Yea the only saving grace is that most of these apps are written in C++ which is my home turf so to speak
[09:58] <TheHackOps> So I can go in and update them for the latest updates
[09:58] <lotuspsychje> !ralink | deep
[09:58] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, I just find it strange how unstable Ubuntu's graphics drivers are
[09:59] <lotuspsychje> TheHackOps: well lets not generalize things, you can only speak for your system right now
[09:59] <sybariten> hello hello, i'm on ubuntu 14 and having problems with a specific irc client complaining about low memory. Its a 256 mb machine. Is there something clever i can to do the ps command to have it give me a bit clearer view of running "programs" so i can see if i have anything else than this irc client running?
[09:59] <mcphail> TheHackOps: did you file a bug report?
[09:59] <TheHackOps> More to a constructive point, how do you guys stabalize things
[09:59] <sybariten> A somewhat condensed ciew
[09:59] <sybariten> voiew
[09:59] <TheHackOps> mcphail, No there was already one open in the end but the developers gave up
[09:59] <TheHackOps> One sec I shal find it
[10:00] <lotuspsychje> sybariten: wich ubuntu version?
[10:00] <sybariten> hi lotuspsychje, it's v14 if thats any help
[10:00] <vbotka> lotuspsychje, it's Realtek, not Ralink.
[10:00] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, mcphail the specific module is called radeon.dpm
[10:00] <lotuspsychje> vbotka: yeah my bad, but the wifi link is general so :p
[10:01] <lotuspsychje> sybariten: ubuntu-desktop with unity?
[10:01] <sybariten> lotuspsychje: uh well... no, i mean, it's headless and should be without X afaik!
[10:01] <lotuspsychje> sybariten: 14.04 server?
[10:02] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, Trust me I am not trying to be anti-ubuntu or anything its my main and only O/S and has been since I 7.04
[10:02] <TheHackOps> Sorry if I came across that way
[10:02] <lotuspsychje> TheHackOps: keep in mind that your version is non-lts, i would try the 16.04 to test radeon+ your card
[10:02] <sybariten> lotuspsychje: hmm... .well is the server a specific "version" ? I did lsb_release and got       Description:    Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
[10:03] <TheHackOps> lotuspsychje, It also crashed on 15.04
[10:03] <TheHackOps> I'm even more scared to go to 16.04
[10:03] <lotuspsychje> sybariten: hmm can you ask the #ubuntu-server guys perhaps if 256 is recommended for server use and how the tweak
[10:03] <deep> lotuspsychje: thanks for the help i will see the documentation
[10:03] <lotuspsychje> TheHackOps: 15.04 is also non-lts and end of life
[10:03] <hrob> hi all
[10:04] <mcphail> TheHackOps: as always, the first step is to see whether the problem is present in the vanilla upstream kernel. If so, it is not an Ubuntu problem and a bug should be filed with the kernel devs. If the problem is Ubuntu-specific, please file a bug on launchpad. Nothing is going to change unless you take the time to do this, as no-one scans the IRC channel for bug reports
[10:04] <hrob> is there any way I can host or at least browse an MSSQL database on ubuntu?
[10:04] <hrob> really don't know where to start, I bet its not a common request
[10:05] <lotuspsychje> deep: you could also test latest realtek drivers from their website
[10:05] <sybariten> lotuspsychje: ive been running it like this for a few years now though, this error is quite recent ....  dont know what changed really.
[10:05] <TheHackOps> mcphail, I know and I often do open bug reports but first I like to see if others have had this issue
[10:06] <lotuspsychje> sybariten: ask the #ubuntu-server guys mate, they have more experience on this
[10:07] <TheHackOps> hrob, yes
[10:07] <TheHackOps> Soon
[10:07] <TheHackOps> MSSQL is coming to linux
[10:10] <hrob> The thing is I'm developing an ubuntu based server that interfaces with an MSSQL database -- now for system testing purposes it would be great to be able to shoot up an mssql service, locally ideally for simplicity
[10:10] <hrob> alternatively I guess I've simply got to get myself a windows virtual machine and run that
[10:10] <mcphail> hrob: it isn't available yet, so you'll have to stick with a windows vm
[10:11] <linocisco> hi all
[10:11] <hrob> mcphail:  love docker --- wish it supported windows -- maybe some windows container services around too
[10:11] <linocisco> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID showed two drives created in VBOX
[10:12] <linocisco> i m using KVM, and don't know how to create two drives first
[10:12] <hateball> hrob: google suggests https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh568451(v=sql.110).aspx
[10:15] <hrob> hateball:  thanks, this shows how I might choose to interface with the mssql server -- ODBC is a common protocol choice
[10:15] <hrob> hateball:   I have a problem of finding a way to possibly fire up an mssql server locally on ubuntu
[10:16] <hrob> hateball:  unfortunately not likely possible yet
[10:16] <hrob> except with VMs
[10:16] <hateball> hrob: Why not just use a platform-agnostic DB?
[10:17] <hrob> hateball:  yes I definately would not have chosen mssql server
[10:17] <hrob> hateball:   seems like a silly thing to do in every way
[10:17] <stefan____> Hello, last times I have problems with my Ubuntu 14.04.4 because the cpus get stalled and the server becomes unresponsive. Kernel:  3.13.0-83-generic x86_64
[10:18] <hrob> unfortunately I'm working on developing a middleware service between a commercial software that uses mssql
[10:18] <stefan____> I copied the dmesg output to a textfile and uploaded it. I can provide it if needed.
[10:19] <asad_> Hey is there a way to pause wget and resume downloading later?
[10:19] <lotuspsychje> asad_: i think download managers are better for that
[10:19] <huwjr> docker lol
[10:19] <huwjr> lololol
[10:20] <asad_> lotuspsychje: I mean I have something downloading right now using wget and I'd like to pause and resume later. Is it possible?
[10:20] <mcphail> asad_: "wget -c" will continue a download
[10:21] <asad_> mcphail: what should I do about the file that's downloading right now? I can just ctrl-c it and use wget -c to resume downloading later?
[10:21] <lotuspsychje> asad_: well in my opinion, a download should be left alone, until its done :p
[10:21] <al2o3-cr> asad_: yep
[10:22] <mcphail> asad_: if the server supports it, then yes
[10:22] <cpaelzer> asad_: read --continue of wget for more details
[10:23] <cpaelzer> asad_: but you have to make sure that if you kill it now it is not cleaning up (I'm not sure what the default for ctrl+x is)
[10:23] <cpaelzer> ctrl+c
[10:23] <mcphail> asad_: not all servers let you resume downloads, and if the file changes in the meantime you will have a garbled file
[10:24] <lotuspsychje> asad_: whats the reason you wanna pause?
[10:24] <asad_> lotuspsychje: It's a large file and I've gotta go somewhere in 10 mins and I'm gonna have to take my laptop with me.
[10:24] <sybariten> lotuspsychje: my main question wasnt actually about memory use but about that ps thing i wrote
[10:25] <lotuspsychje> sybariten: sure thing mate, re-ask here once in a while..just trying to widen your solve options
[10:26] <lotuspsychje> asad_: ok mate, just keep in mind what mcphail suggests, file might get corrupt
[10:27] <popey> asad_: ignore the detractors, pressing ctrl-c on wget and using "wget -c " to resume is _very_ reliable :)
[10:28] <popey> (I do it all the time)
[10:30] <tracymay> Wny does my clock keep going back to regular time instead of daylight savings?
[10:31] <hrob> woha it in beta https://www.docker.com/microsoft
[10:31] <hateball> tracymay: do you dualboot?
[10:31] <tracymay> No.
[10:32] <tracymay> But when I start up Grub does load.
[10:33] <hateball> tracymay: are "date" and "sudo hwclock -r" showing different times?
[10:33] <tracymay> No. But that could be because I just changed my clock one hour ahead.
[10:33] <tracymay> I've had to do that a number of times now because it doesn't seem to stick when I reboot.
[10:34] <tracymay> How come you wrote sudo hwclock -r instead of just sudo hwclock?
[10:34] <tracymay> The output is identical.
[10:34] <jak2000> done done....
[10:35] <cariveri> Hi. does anyone know a good tool to visualize lines of code?
[10:37] <tracymay> Just installed an update for Ubuntu base.
[10:37] <tracymay> How does it update those critical files if they are in use? It's not requesting a restart.
[10:38] <lotuspsychje> cariveri: c, c++?
[10:38] <popey> tracymay: if it's some background service then it gets restarted usually by the update
[10:38] <cariveri> lotuspsychje: .txt actually
[10:38] <popey> tracymay: other things will get reloaded on restart of the app
[10:38] <mcphail> tracymay: it doesn't. This is a longstanding problem with package management. Services depending on those libs may be restarted, but the only way to guarantee they are all refreshed is to reboot
[10:38] <popey> cariveri: what do you want to visualise?
[10:39] <ice> hello

[10:47] <iamice> Is there a channel of ubuntu mate?
[10:53] <cariveri> popey: over a series of files Id like to visualize the lines of code. a graph.
[10:53] <lotuspsychje> cariveri: yes but wich code exactly?
[10:56] <cariveri> lotuspsychje: just some .txt files. I dont need it per file. I just need to know which files is has got more than the others as a graph at best.
[10:57] <trijntje> cariveri: for file in *.txt; do echo -n "$file "; wc -l $file;done
[10:58] <cariveri> trijntje: wc -l *.txt   does that too. but thats not plotted. no graph. its jsut a sequenz of numbers.

[11:32] <k1l_> type "dmesg" into the terminal after you plugged the usb in.
[11:32] <k1l_> then show the output on paste.ubuntu.com and show the link here

[11:41] <cfhowlett> popey, tsk.  mission accomplished I suppose
[11:42] <katerina> Hey , I have a strange error. I have a remote machine and lsscsi command gives me one more disk available than fdisk. Then dmesg gives some erros. Command output given here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15550963/. Any idea?
[11:46] <friendlyguy> hi there! i need to switch from open-jre to "oracle-jre"... i am wondering how to uninstall open-jre without loosing software beeing dependent on java[which is currently stopped]... i would prefer if it is possible to rip open-jre off and put new oracle-jre in... without removing the software in between
[11:46] <Jacruth> Hi guys, could you help me with this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/751303/change-wallpaper-lxde-lubuntu-14-04
[11:47] <katerina> Problem solved. The disk has been physically removed. I don't know why lsscsi shows it still there though.
[11:47] <ntz> katerina: that error has nothing to do with sdb but with f0 which is your floppy bay
[11:49] <mcphail> friendlyguy: on Ubuntu, you can install different java implementations side by side, and select the one you want with "sudo update-alternatives --config java"
[11:49] <friendlyguy> mcphail: oh, so i can first install oracle-jre and later remove open-jre
[11:50] <mcphail> friendlyguy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
[11:50] <mcphail> friendlyguy: I'd keep it, rather than removing it, unless you are very short on space
[11:50] <friendlyguy> nope, i am not :)
[11:50] <friendlyguy> thanks
[11:51] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[11:51] <friendlyguy> as far as i get it just install oracle stuff and update the alternative to point to oracle jre
[11:51] <friendlyguy> right?
[11:51] <mcphail> friendlyguy: yep
[11:51] <mcphail> friendlyguy: should be OK (but I haven't used Oracle java for ages)
[11:52] <friendlyguy> looks convenient :)
[11:52] <friendlyguy> lets try
[11:52] <friendlyguy> its a vm anyway and i ve got a snapshot
[11:53] <friendlyguy> nice, thank you mcphail!

[12:05] <proudlinuxuser> I searched trough my terminal-history, I guess I know why my usb-storages are not mounting..." sudo mv /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko-disabled
[12:05] <proudlinuxuser> "
[12:06] <proudlinuxuser> How can I annul this order?
[12:06] <White_Cat__> hi
[12:06] <anonymous_> hi
[12:06] <anonymous_> anyone here
[12:07] <White_Cat__> I am trying to have a virtualbox ubuntu that has two virtual network cards, one being a bridge, and other a virtual host only conneciton
[12:07] <White_Cat__> eth0 shows but eth1 does not
[12:07] <White_Cat__> why could this be?
[12:07] <anonymous_> how to hide the ip address
[12:08] <hateball> proudlinuxuser: You would reverse the source and destination filenames in the command
[12:09] <hateball> proudlinuxuser: that is, the command would be "sudo mv /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko.disabled /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko"
[12:09] <dw1> 14.04 keeps randomly logging me out all of a sudden
[12:09] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust
[12:10] <MonkeyDust> lotuspsychje
[12:10] <dw1> hardware issue? :/
[12:10] <hateball> dw1: check ~/.xsession-errors
[12:10] <lotuspsychje> White_Cat__: maybe the #vbox guys might know also?
[12:10] <pashok2398> Why update-ca-certificates command doesnt work with certs from /usr/share/ca-certificates/dir/certname.crt, and only with certs from /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/dir/certname.crt ?
[12:11] <White_Cat__> perhaps but I see the problem in the ubuntu end maybe
[12:11] <White_Cat__> eth1 should at least show even if not connecting
[12:11] <White_Cat__> maybe it is a setting I am unaware of
[12:11] <MonkeyDust> White_Cat__  i use vbox, what's the issue
[12:12] <White_Cat__> so i have a virtual ubuntu server
[12:12] <White_Cat__> I want to give it two network adapters
[12:12] <White_Cat__> first is a bridge adaptor that links properly
[12:12] <dw1> [  792.168278] compiz[3112]: segfault at 7fbf0034362f ip 00007fbf1d0de478 sp 00007ffc0e2b1850 error 4 in libX11.so.6.3.0[7fbf1d0b3000+130000]
[12:12] <dw1> in dmesg - might be why
[12:13] <White_Cat__> virtual machine has internet access and everything
[12:13] <White_Cat__> I want it to have a second adaptor that is configured to have access from the host machine
[12:13] <MonkeyDust> White_Cat__  keep it one line
[12:13] <lotuspsychje> dw1: up to date to 14.04.4?
[12:13] <White_Cat__> okay. so even if I am offline I want to have network connectivity with the virtual mahcine
[12:13] <dw1> yea
[12:13] <proudlinuxuser> @hateball, so Im done with this command?
[12:14] <dw1> oh major dist-upgrades
[12:14] <dw1> brb :/
[12:14] <ntz> White_Cat__: you can do it the same way like adding one adapter ... if you assign another network adapter and check it's on after VM boot it will work
[12:14] <lotuspsychje> dw1: what graphics card + driver loaded please
[12:14] <dw1> the thing is.. i was logged out from gnome-session-flashback metacity before that :S
[12:14] <dw1> just now the lancher bar crashed so that was probably that msg
[12:14] <hateball> proudlinuxuser: if all you were looking to do was reverse what you had run, yes. I don't know the context here, if you have done more modifications outside of that
[12:14] <White_Cat__> ntz: I have configured two adaptors, both enabled. ifconfig shows only one of them
[12:15] <ntz> 1) use ip
[12:15] <proudlinuxuser> Okay, thank you :)
[12:15] <ntz> 2) check system logs (dmesg for instance)
[12:17] <ntz> White_Cat__: http://susepaste.org/view/raw/83099464
[12:17] <ntz> ^^ if you have this way checked both it will work .. as simple as that
[12:21] <White_Cat__> hmm, ifconfig - a does show the adapter wich does not have an IP assigned to it
[12:21] <White_Cat__> my os is windows 7 by the way
[12:24] <pax2you> hi
[12:25] <ntz> ifconfig doesn't work in windows ...
[12:25] <Myrtti> ipconfig
[12:25] <White_Cat__> gave eth1 a static ip and fixed it
[12:26] <MonkeyDust> White_Cat__  works?
[12:33] <White_Cat__> MonkeyDust:  yes, all good on my end
[12:34] <MonkeyDust> +1
[12:34] <MonkeyDust> White_Cat__  and it's normal that a server has a static ip address
[12:35] <MonkeyDust> wel, 'normal'
[12:35] <White_Cat__> probably there is no easy way to make windows 7 give out ip adresses so what works is good enough for me
[12:51] <proudbyte> Hi, about locale… keep getting warnings and don’t know how to solve it! My server is in US english but my currency and date etc are pt_PT any advice?
[12:53] <mallard> proudbyte: What are the warnings?
[12:56] <xiaozhang> hi
[13:07] <jose2> hello guys, there is a way to acces to a raid1(mirror) windows hdd from a non raid ubuntu machine?
[13:09] <gde33> viewing large folders is rather slow in the file browser, is there some way for it to remember the content or some other kind of viewer?
[13:11] <gde33> the drive is 8 TB, I have 'only' 2 TB worth of folders and sub folders in a folder
[13:12] <mobile3> can anyone help me with css or tell me where to go for help?
[13:13] <gde33> oh ic tree view might be useful
[13:15] <proudbyte> mallard sorry I was away the warnings are: perl: warning: Setting locale failed. and: perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = "en_US:en", LC_ALL = (unset), LC_CTYPE = "UTF-8", LANG = "en_US.UTF-8" plus: locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE, locale: Cannot set LC_ALL
[13:15] <samakv> @mobile3 have you tried www.w3schools.com ?
[13:15] <gde33> mobile3:  #css ?
[13:16] <rilleh> proudbyte: export LC_ALL="en_US" in your .bashrc
[13:16] <mobile3> samkv: I read there.. I have some specific problem
[13:16] <mallard> proudbyte: What locales do you have set in /etc/locale.gen ?
[13:17] <cfhowlett> proudbyte, similar problem.  ubuntu picked up my previous location in China and somehow coded my locale that way.  settings did nothing.  this worked: sudo locale-gen purge
[13:17] <proudbyte>  mallard https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9353d6e3ded924631c80
[13:20] <proudbyte> mallard sorry wrong terminal https://gist.github.com/anonymous/3fd8b939493651282b93
[13:21] <mallard> proudbyte: Sorry I meant /etc/locale.gen, not locale.conf
[13:21] <llutz> proudbyte:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Locale#List_current_settings
[13:21] <proudbyte> mallard that is just the output of locale command :)
[13:23] <proudbyte> llutz reading now
[13:27] <proudbyte> llutz here is the output after update locale https://gist.github.com/anonymous/5d4f92c7dd9e0b399b76
[13:28] <proudbyte> how can I setup a new generated locale ?
[13:29] <proudbyte> I’ve generated pt_PT.UTF-8 now I won’t to set it as default
[13:29] <cfhowlett> proudbyte, sudo locale-gen purge && sudo locale-gen
[13:30] <proudbyte> cfhowlett but that will restore the default to system language right?
[13:30] <cfhowlett> proudbyte, I believe so
[13:30] <proudbyte> which in my case is in us english and I wan’t to set locale to pt_PT
[13:30] <proudbyte> cfhowlett do you get the problem?
[13:31] <cfhowlett> proudbyte, I understand.
[13:31] <cfhowlett> I'm on xubuntu so my set up is different from yours.  All I can report is that I purged locale then my customized settings worked
[13:38] <proudbyte> whats the difference between LANG and LANGUAGE |?
[13:40] <Marezz> proudbyte, LANGUAGE has 4 letters more? :D
[13:40] <proudbyte> P
[13:40] <proudbyte> :P
[13:41] <proudbyte> I guess LANG is primary and LANGUAGE is a fallback var?!?

[13:42] <younder> Anyone have any experience with setting up a bind9 (DNS) server? My server name is pandora nad my domain name the same. A nslookup on pandora fails on the 10 cluster nodes it succeeds. The resolv suceeds on all. What is the problem?
[13:42] <agarciava> hi
[13:43] <le_pig> On the 14.04.4 desktop ISO, are the contents of /install/netboot the same as the ISO available on cdimage.ubuntu.com/netboot ?
[13:43] <agarciava> I've a package err, trying to install g++-arm-linux-gnueabihf, unmet dependencies
[13:43] <MonkeyDust> younder  there's also #ubuntu-server
[13:44] <younder> MonkeyDust, thx
[13:45] <proudbyte> llutz yt+thank you I guess I’ve solved it besides local-gen etc had to write in .bashrc export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
[13:45] <proudbyte> utps export LC_ALL=“pt_PT.UTF-8"
[13:45] <proudbyte> *utps = ups
[13:46] <rilleh> So locale-gen wasn't enough?
[13:46] <rilleh> proudbyte
[13:46] <proudbyte> fuck getting sloppy
[13:46] <proudbyte> no
[13:46] <rilleh> That's weird
[13:47] <proudbyte> it wasn’t but now everything is fine I guess… is not weird i guess that this is due to system language is in english
[13:47] <proudbyte> ok so thank you all
[13:47] <MonkeyDust> proudbyte  mind your language
[13:48] <proudbyte> for your input
[13:48] <proudbyte> MonkeyDust sorry
[13:49] <proudbyte> but I guess that language is a vehicle to expression… what do you do when you hear it in movies music etc?
[13:49] <proudbyte> ok so have fun

[14:00] <shark127> Hey guys, I've been struggling with this error lately. http://i.imgur.com/c73uXLR.png?1  15.10 ubuntu. Any one have any ideas?
[14:01] <MonkeyDust> shark127  what's wrong?
[14:02] <SchrodingersScat> I get some 'errors' like that, I update manually so I disregard that. How long has it been up?  Have you updated recently?
[14:02] <shark127> MonkeyDust i have that warning sign on top, when i click it give the message as shown below. Selecting "show updates" gives me the 2nd window, from top, basically saying everything is fine
[14:03] <shark127> SchroidingersScat yeah I update daily (whenever the update comes out)
[14:06] <DirtyCajun> i am copying files from 1 HDD to another. and the 2nd has 1TB left of space on it but no longer copies and says no space left on device... any ideas?
[14:06] <lotuspsychje> shark127: any ppa's added, manual packages install?
[14:07] <younder> DirtyCajun, do a df -h on hat drive and seee if you have any partions
[14:07] <DirtyCajun> younder: says /dev/sdd1                 4.6T  4.3T     0 100% /tv2
[14:07] <DirtyCajun> .3 just poofed
[14:08] <shark127> lotuspsychje nope.
[14:08] <lotuspsychje> shark127: tried a sudo apt-get update yet?
[14:08] <younder> That leeves permissions
[14:08] <younder> leaves
[14:08] <DirtyCajun> ive been copying for 12 hours
[14:08] <DirtyCajun> nothing has changed lol
[14:08] <younder> ls -l <drive>
[14:09] <MonkeyDust> DirtyCajun  with which command?
[14:09] <yeats> DirtyCajun: make sure you don't have some kind of logical loop (like you're copying the directory you're copying to)
[14:09] <younder> say have you monted readonly
[14:09] <younder> mounted
[14:10] <lotuspsychje> shark127: behind a router or firewall?
[14:10] <MonkeyDust> DirtyCajun  and what format are the disks? if it's ntfs, there's a hidden .Trash-1000 folder, make sure it's empty
[14:10] <casa> hi
[14:11] <DirtyCajun> MonkeyDust: its ext4. would you like to see the output of tune2fs?
[14:11] <younder> If you check the fstab you will see that a file systen is monted readonly after a fail to mount it ordinarely
[14:11] <llutz> DirtyCajun: sudo dumpe2fs  -h /dev/sdd1 |grep Reserved
[14:11] <younder> ..not that I really think that is what is happening here
[14:12] <leeyaa> hi
[14:12] <DirtyCajun> Reserved block count:     61047119
[14:12] <leeyaa> does the openssl version on 14.04 have patch for CVE-2016-2842 ?
[14:12] <shark127> lotuspsychje No i haven't tried the command yet. Router. Also I'm getting issues with ubuntu picking up that im connected to the internet http://i.imgur.com/A5EPn9E.png?1
[14:12] <leeyaa> i have OpenSSL 1.0.1f installed but i think i need OpenSSL 1.0.1s
[14:12] <DirtyCajun> that seems like a lot. can i reduce that?
[14:12] <llutz> DirtyCajun: man tune2fs
[14:12] <llutz>  -m
[14:13] <llutz> DirtyCajun: on data-partitions, use -m0
[14:13] <younder> DirtyCajun, bzip?
[14:13] <temmi_hoo> helloes
[14:13] <lotuspsychje> shark127: says ppa there, so you did add ppa
[14:13] <temmi_hoo> am i understanding correctly that networkmanager is not installed in a server installation of ubuntu?
[14:13] <SchrodingersScat> DirtyCajun: yep, you can make it 0 if you like, up to you, normally on / it reserves space so you can still run commands even if disk is fullish
[14:13] <lotuspsychje> shark127: installed f.lux ppa
[14:13] <yeats> temmi_hoo: correct
[14:13] <younder> temmi_hoo, that is correct
[14:13] <Craigwell> running into an odd situation lately, 14.04 system freezing sometimes, and it involves wifi. I'm on a jobsite and the client provided me access to their network. Haven't had issues, but sometimes connection drops and reconnects, and now there is occasional system freezes associated with it.
[14:13] <temmi_hoo> what other network configuration dynamic pitfalls should i watch for?
[14:14] <DirtyCajun> its definately just storage
[14:14] <shark127> lotuspsychje sorry, I'm new to linux...
[14:14] <DirtyCajun> on it. thank you so much
[14:14] <llutz> DirtyCajun: so its fine to set it to 0
[14:14] <lotuspsychje> shark127: remove all ppa's from your system and run a sudo apt-get update after
[14:14] <Craigwell> i'm looking at syslog now and see a few suspect entries:
[14:14] <temmi_hoo> i'm using ubuntu servers for running all kinds of experimental network stuff and i'd very much like the configuration to be nondynamic in every possible way
[14:14] <lotuspsychje> !ppapurge | shark127

[14:15] <Craigwell> a lot of wpa / network manager entries i can't quite make sense out of
[14:15] <younder> temmi_hoo, your question is very general
[14:15] <temmi_hoo> https://www.point-h2020.eu/detailed-overview/ <-- i'm doing small embedded nodes for this project
[14:15] <temmi_hoo> it is very general
[14:16] <yeats> temmi_hoo: in this channel, you need to have specific questions - general tutoring happens elsewhere
[14:16] <temmi_hoo> the specific i wanted to ask were about networkmanager
[14:17] <temmi_hoo> thx for prompt answer on that :)
[14:17] <cfhowlett> temmi_hoo, server questions best asked in #ubuntu-server
[14:17] <younder> temmi_hoo, ok start with /etc/network/interfaces
[14:17] <yeats> temmi_hoo: if you're on 14.04, networking is controlled in /etc/network/interfaces
[14:17] <temmi_hoo> younder: oh okay thx
[14:17] <younder> echo
[14:17] <yeats> younder: :-)
[14:19] <younder> I recommend you get the oreilly unix networking administration guide
[14:20] <younder> or something of the sort. anyways tha't what I use
[14:20] <temmi_hoo> in general i'm somewhat familiar with ubuntu
[14:20] <k1l_> leeyaa: you know there is ubuntu.com/usn to look into the cve tracker
[14:21] <younder> Altso the ubuntu server guide as setups in Ubuntu might suprise you
[14:21] <leeyaa> k1l_: i do, im just evaluating some cve scanner crap and am trying to verify whatever it is saying is true
[14:21] <temmi_hoo> i've been a freebsd user for 20+ years and before that used sunos and interactive unixes
[14:22] <k1l_> temmi_hoo: is there an actual support issue for ubuntu right now?
[14:22] <shark127> lotuspsychje how do i find the repository name/subdirectory? I tried sudo ppa-purge ppa:kilian/f.lux with no result
[14:22] <temmi_hoo> k1l_: i already asked and got the answer
[14:22] <k1l_> temmi_hoo: ok
[14:23] <younder> temmi_hoo, I have used unixes alu sunOs and Unltrix before venturing to Linux
[14:23] <k1l_> !ot | younder
[14:23] <younder> I know kll
[14:23] <lotuspsychje> shark127: check your sources.list in software sources
[14:24] <k1l_> younder: than dont do offtopic on purpose in here, please.
[14:24] <k1l_> *then
[14:24] <k1l_> shark127: please run a "grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | nc termbin.com 9999" and show the link in here
[14:25] <younder> should I waste any more bandwith telling you that experience counts
[14:27] <shark127> k1l_ http://termbin.com/eghe
[14:27] <younder> Anyhow since the 2.7 kernel OpenBSD and Linux have had approx the same  network speed. Polling and opposed to interrupts when the packet frequency get's high
[14:28] <k1l_> shark127: sudo ppa-purge ppa:kilian/f.lux
[14:29] <Vuurdraak_> hi all, how do i find out if a certain soundcard has driver support in ubuntu, i have my eye on a cheap soundcard, but the official website has no linux drivers, is there a way for me to discover if ubuntu stil supports the card ?
[14:30] <lotuspsychje> Vuurdraak_: a good way would be plugin your card and just test it on ubuntu
[14:30] <lecaiman> hi everyone...a question, some time ago (5 mars) i installed the alpha version of ubuntu 16.04, it's working good. I must install the beta versions or the final release or my installation will be updated automatically ?
[14:30] <lotuspsychje> !final | lecaiman
[14:30] <k1l_> lecaiman: just run the updates
[14:31] <Vuurdraak_> @ lotuspsychje , i didnt buy the card yet :) , i dont want to buy it if it isnt supported
[14:31] <younder> Vuurdraak_, Almost all harware is supported by debian but in doubt https://wiki.debian.org/Hardware
[14:31] <shark127> k1l_ doesn't seem to work. http://i.imgur.com/sFvKPPk.png?1
[14:31] <Vuurdraak_> thanks i go check it

[14:36] <k1l_> shark127: using any proxy or such?
[14:37] <shark127> k1l_ no
[14:38] <k1l_> shark127: is this a VM?
[14:38] <temmi_hoo> can anybody recommend me a well written guide that would help me package software for ubuntu machines (14LTS and 15LTS) that would allow me to scp the files over and then install them as normal packages so that apt would recursively install prerequisites and all?
[14:38] <temmi_hoo> would dpkg be the tool?
[14:39] <shark127> k1l_ dual boot with win10
[14:39] <k1l_> temmi_hoo: there is no 15.04 or 15.10 LTS. only 12.04, 14.04 and the 16.04 will be LTS
[14:39] <MonkeyDust> temmi_hoo  tip: use rsync, not scp
[14:40] <temmi_hoo> k1l_: oh okay, 14LTS and 15 then, anyhow i'd like to make a single binary package that would then depend on certain stuff that is available on public apt repositories
[14:40] <younder> MonkeyDust, bacula?
[14:41] <k1l_> temmi_hoo: start here: http://packaging.ubuntu.com/
[14:41] <younder> MonkeyDust, I mean I use mostly rsync myself
[14:41] <younder> MonkeyDust, a bacupup system for networks
[14:41] <jose2> can a mirrored windows (RAID-1) disk be plugged into ubuntu to be read?
[14:41] <k1l_> shark127: seems like your ipv6 doesnt work.
[14:42] <k1l_> shark127: i need to go afk, maybe someone other can help there
[14:42] <frostschutz> jose2, it depends which type of raid, Linux supports some of the fakeraid formats that are used in windows but not all of them
[14:42] <temmi_hoo> thx k1l_, looks like i'll be making a ppa out of it and there is a guide for that on your link
[14:43] <younder> IPV6 is a nakes den. Hackerse waiting to down on you if you get it wrong.. I stick with IPv4 for now
[14:43] <shark127> k1l_ okay, thanks a lot!
[14:43] <jose2> frostschutz, is a raid-1(mirror) using Matrix Storage Manger
[14:43] <frostschutz> jose2, it also depends on whether you want windows to read it again afterwards, if not, with raid-1 you can usually just ignore the raid layer altogether
[14:44] <younder> My raid is supported by the bios. The linux just sees it as one drive
[14:45] <jose2> frostschutz, I just need to save the files
[14:45] <younder> that said here IS a way to run a RAID drive under linux
[14:45] <younder> I read it in the linux administration handbook
[14:46] <frostschutz> jose2, not too familiar with matrix storage manager, is that the intel fakeraid? it should work
[14:46] <jose2> frostschutz, yes
[14:47] <frostschutz> jose2, linux mdadm supports imsm Intel(R) Matrix Storage Manager metadata format. If it's that what you have, you should have no problems

[14:54] <jose2> frostschutz, thanks
[14:56] <mikubuntu> i've just installed baobab on my 14.04 lubuntu, because i din't have any 'disk usage analyser' showing in my menus -- anyways when i run baobab it's not detecting any of my hdd apparently as readings are all '0' -- anyone have a guess as to what the problem may be?
[14:59] <DirtyCajun> ok. so diff will tell me bite for bite if they are the same file but for 5tb thats a lot. i just need to see which files are not the same size. is there a smarter way?
[14:59] <yeats> DirtyCajun: md5sum?
[15:00] <Seveas> DirtyCajun: stat -c %s filename-goes-here
[15:00] <MonkeyDust> DirtyCajun  rdfind comes to mind
[15:00] <Seveas> yeats: MonkeyDust: if all he needs is size, good old stat is enough :)
[15:00] <DirtyCajun> yeats and Seveas im checking a 5TB directory tree not a single file.
[15:01] <DirtyCajun> you can pass a directory and it will check it recursively?
[15:01] <DirtyCajun> like /dir1/foo/bar/baz.txt is a different size than /dir2/foo/bar/baz.txt
[15:02] <Seveas> DirtyCajun: untested and probably buggy shell oneliner: for file in $(find root1); do file2=${file%root1%root2}; if [ $(stat -c %s $file) != $(stat -c %s $file2) ]; then echo "file differs: $file"; fi; done
[15:04] <donzo> salut
[15:04] <MonkeyDust> a handy way to write such lengthy lines, is simply typing ( and then hit enter ... execute batch by typing )
[15:04] <Seveas> except that that puts you in a subshell, which may or may not be desired
[15:05] <MonkeyDust> true
[15:05] <frostschutz> you don't need ( to be able to hit enter ... you can do for x in y <enter> do <enter> thing a la ding dong dubs
[15:06] <Seveas> $ thing a ling ding dong dubs
[15:06] <Seveas> bash: thing: command not found
[15:07] <MonkeyDust> yes, but with ( ... ) it goes into 'history' and you can easily repat it
[15:08] <frostschutz> rsync has a --size-only option, combined with --dry-run, --verbose, --list-only maybe you can get it to give you what you want
[15:08] <Seveas> frostschutz: creative, I like it!
[15:09] <trijntje> frostschutz: clever
[15:11] <lerner> if my hdd makes strange noises, like "clacks" from time to time (twice a minute), does that mean its about to die?
[15:11] <tonyt> lerner ise say yes
[15:11] <frostschutz> lerner, smartctl -a /dev/hdd?
[15:11] <tonyt> *ide
[15:12] <younder> lerner, yes
[15:13] <colept> Cron daily "apt" script hangs every  day .What do?
[15:13] <younder> lerner, There is actually a utillity in ubuntu client that keeps track of there things. Go into system
[15:13] <colept> It uses up all the CPU every day, probably because the ram is filled by nginx, phpfpm, and memcache
[15:14] <younder> colept, those are nor expensive. It must be someting else
[15:14] <colept> update-xapian-index maybe
[15:15] <colept> Can't pinpoint the source but it's either apt or update-xapian-index because if I don't shut down nginx or memcached or mysql - it will crash running those
[15:16] <dror> Hi, I'm using 15.10 on a laptop while a different laptop near me is using Windows 10. The Windows laptop is connected to a network which the Ubuntu laptop can't even see on the list of available networks, and this is not the 1st time (happened in other locations). Any ideas why?
[15:18] <younder> dror, samba.. You seek samba ;)
[15:21] <Ardan> how to upgrade php 5.5.9-1 to 5.5.11?
[15:22] <lerner> frostschutz, how do I interpret the results of your command? Error 1327 occurred at disk power-on lifetime: 22189 hours (924 days + 13 hours)
[15:22] <lerner>   When the command that caused the error occurred, the device was active or idle.
[15:22] <lerner> does my hdd have a life of 924 days and a half?
[15:23] <dror> younder: How is it related?
[15:25] <MrObvious> So I'm going to give my laptop to my friend who has a fast internet so that I could update my system - and I since I can't be physically there , I thought I should just tell him to connect the laptop to Ethernet and let it connect automatically on the internet
[15:25] <colept> younder: The system hangs every day on  (root) CMD (test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ))
[15:25] <DirtyCajun> Seveas: i have edited that command until it works except arg list is too long
[15:26] <MrObvious> and then I could just ssh to it with my other laptop and preform the update myself
[15:26] <colept> A quick google search reveals that for some, changing the RandomSleep parameter of apt works, but I tried that and does nothing
[15:26] <colept> dror: Samba is what allows Windows and Ubuntu computers to see each other
[15:26] <MrObvious> problem is - I have no idea which public IP the laptop is going to be given by his ISP
[15:27] <MrObvious> What do you guys suggest
[15:27] <colept> MrObvious: dynamic DNS
[15:27] <auronandace> MrObvious: get him to tell you by making him go to what is my ip
[15:27] <dror> colept: Yeah I know. I was describing a WiFi issue on Ubuntu compared to no-problem on Windows... I'm not seeking for Windows connectivity between the computers
[15:27] <MrObvious> auronandace, he's a total Linux noob
[15:28] <colept> dror: sorry I dont understand the question
[15:28] <younder> colept, All ubuntu clients use anacron instead of cron. It is made for laptops which switch off all the time.
[15:28] <colept> MrObvious: get a free dynamic DNS subdomain
[15:28] <auronandace> MrObvious: if he can open a browser and visit a website that is all that is needed (regardless if he is on windows/linux/mac)
[15:28] <frostschutz> lerner, put it in a paste.ubuntu.com
[15:28] <younder> colept, It must be in cron.d/       cron.daily/   cron.hourly/  cron.monthly/ cron.weekly/
[15:29] <colept> younder: right it's cron.daily/apt
[15:29] <colept> or cron.weekly/update-xapian-index
[15:29] <colept> But it happens every day
[15:29] <MrObvious> auronandace, so I suppose making him provide me with the IP is all what I need to know right?
[15:29] <colept> "apt-xapian-index" not update
[15:30] <walid> sudo rm -rf *
[15:30] <walid> :)
[15:30] <auronandace> MrObvious: that would be one step, you'll then likely have to get him o allow ssh connection via setting up port forwarding in the router (that would be the much more complicated step that he likely would have no idea on how to do)
[15:31] <younder> colept, apt is a lengthy script
[15:31] <katerina> dror: I would check network-manager status to see if it is active (service network-manager status)
[15:31] <MrObvious> oh ..
[15:32] <colept> younder: is there a way to "fast-forward" maybe change the clock time to simulate conditions that would cause cron to run? Because if I run cron directly, it works just fine
[15:32] <lerner> frostschutz, https://paste.ubuntu.com/15552386/
[15:32] <younder> colept, just call the script
[15:32] <colept> I have, it works just fine if called directly
[15:33] <younder> colept, is't just a shell script anyhow
[15:33] <MrObvious> Well I guess I should google a bit more about it auronandace - thank you very much for the tip
[15:33] <colept> run-parts: executing /etc/cron.weekly/apt-xapian-index
[15:33] <colept> crashes there atm
[15:34] <colept> another time it crashed on /etc/cron.daily/apt
[15:34] <younder> colept, have you tested the parameters mentioned in the preamble
[15:34] <robairt_> Anyone have any idea why I keep getting razer.insider notifications?
[15:34] <colept> you mean `test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )` ? I've already ran that directly
[15:35] <WJ3rd> hi, i think .Xauthority got modified because trying to login as my usual user yields a loop.  So I loaded off of the live dvd, and can mount the encrypted home directory, but it doesnt mount as rw, only r.  I am in gnome disk utility right now and i see options "nosuid, nodev, nofail, etc"  is +rw an option there for read/write access?
[15:36] <WJ3rd> i didnt see a write access option with ecryptfs-private-recover
[15:36] <younder> colept, don't know if this works http://serverfault.com/questions/85893/running-a-cron-job-manually-and-immediately
[15:36] <younder> but woth a shot
[15:36] <WJ3rd> is there one?
[15:37] <younder> WJ3rd, You stuck in GRUB?
[15:37] <WJ3rd> younder im in gui live dvd
[15:38] <frostschutz> lerner, 2 pending sectors which the disk can't read anymore - you probably need a new one
[15:38] <younder> WJ3rd, You have to install it to have full autority over your drives. You know that right
[15:39] <younder> I must admit I a a little confused
[15:39] <younder> Otherwise all it has is a little ram disc hat get's erased on rebot
[15:40] <frostschutz> lerner, the crc errors they might be caused by a bad cable, so when you get a new disk,# replace the cable too just in case
[15:40] <WJ3rd> i just need to delete the .Xauthority file once
[15:40] <jason__> is Ubuntu 16.04 shipping with PHP 7.0?
[15:40] <WJ3rd> so i need write access
[15:40] <WJ3rd> not that complicated
[15:41] <MonkeyDust> jason__  #ubuntu+1
[15:41] <jason__> thx
[15:43] <WJ3rd> can i mount an encrypted home folder with write access
[15:43] <andy_wfc> Is there a dpkg or apt equivalent to "rpm -q --changelog" which shows the changelog for a package? It's useful to grep for CVE numbers and see if vulnerabilities have been patched back into older versions of a package
[15:43] <younder> Jason_, No it doeas no ship with PHP
[15:43] <younder> You have to install apache2
[15:44] <k1l_> andy_wfc: there is a cve tracker on ubuntu.com/usn
[15:44] <llutz> andy_wfc: apt-get changelog <package>
[15:44] <younder> You have to install apache2 first
[15:44] <andy_wfc> llutz: thanks!
[15:46] <colept> younder: been at it for days with the apt/xapian issue - with no solution in sight so Imma chalk it up to running out of memory
[15:46] <colept> I had swap off so I turned it back on
[15:48] <younder> colept, running out of memory? Where did that come from?
[15:48] <colept> younder: apt-xapian-index usually
[15:48] <colept> in cron.weekly
[15:48] <colept> but I don't see how that could run daily
[15:48] <rootsr> Can anyone help me with mutt configuration for gmail ( it has 2 step authentication enabled)? or any mail client which supports 2-step authentication for gmail
[15:50] <nacc> rootsr: add a app-specific password
[15:50] <younder> colept, this relevant? https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=592323
[15:51] <colept> younder: I don't this so. There's no tangible error thats produced - the machine hangs as the CPU becomes overloaded
[15:51] <colept> think*
[15:51] <colept> Turning swap back on seemed to have fix it
[15:52] <colept> My guess is it runs out of memory and gets stuck in some kind of FUBAR loop
[15:52] <saso1234> ciaoo
[15:52] <saso1234> !list
[15:54] <rootsr> nacc: I don't find any option to add app specific password in mail client like evolution or mutt. Neither they ask for one
[15:54] <WJ3rd> where is documentation for this gnome disks https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/gnome-disk-utility/
[15:55] <WJ3rd> I need the mount options full list
[15:55] <llutz> rootsr: use that app-sprecific password as login-password in mutt, not the account password.
[15:55] <llutz> specific
[15:56] <teward> WJ3rd: the mount options would be available in the manpage for the `mount` command... http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/wily/en/man8/mount.8.html
[15:56] <gabr13l> This morning when I run `apt-get update and apt-get -y upgrade` I’m getting a `Hash Sum mismatch` error and the command isn’t completing. Has anyone else been experiencing that? Thanks.
[15:56] <teward> WJ3rd: mount options also vary by filesystem, too, so it's not trivial to determine what mount options to use unless you know what you're doing.
[15:57] <teward> gabr13l: It may be an intermittent issue.  Switch your mirrors temporarily?
[15:57] <gabr13l> teward: thanks. I’ll look into that.
[15:57] <younder> WJ3rd, cat /proc/mounts
[15:57] <k1l_> gabr13l: that happens when the servers are syncing. either wait or change mirrors
[15:57] <yeats> gabr13l: you might look into clearing your package cache too
[15:58] <gabr13l> k1l_:  yeats confirmed. thanks.

[16:02] <sakrecoer> trying to format an external HD, 2TB. GParted does the job according to itself. but it shows 29,42Gb used and is unwriteable. websearching info on how to achieve this is super hard. anyone couldshare a hint?
[16:02] <llutz> sakrecoer:  sudo dumpe2fs  -h /dev/sdXY |grep Reserved
[16:04] <sakrecoer> llutz: "dumpe2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdc"
[16:05] <nacc> rootsr: what llutz said
[16:05] <llutz> sakrecoer: on partition, not drive sdXY
[16:05] <llutz> sakrecoer: /dev/sdc1 mostlikely , check: sudo parted -l
[16:07] <younder> llutz, dump2fs perhaps
[16:07] <sakrecoer> llutz: "Reserved block count: 24418496", "Reserved GDT blocks: 907", "Reserved blocks uid: 0 (user root)", "Reserved blocks gid:      0 (group root)"
[16:07] <llutz> sakrecoer: there you go.
[16:07] <llutz> younder: no
[16:07] <llutz> sakrecoer: use tune2fs -m0  to set reserved blocks to 0
[16:08] <sakrecoer> llutz: ok! thanks! now, how do i make it writeable?
[16:08] <llutz> sakrecoer: read "man chown/chmod"
[16:09] <younder> llutz, right you are what an insane name
[16:09] <llutz> younder: dump ext2 filesystem   (ext4/3 too, now)
[16:09] <younder> dumpe2fs [ -bfhixV ] [ -o superblock=superblock ] [ -o blocksize=blocksize ] device
[16:09]  * sakrecoer slaps himself with a large bass
[16:10] <sakrecoer> THANK YOU llutz!!! :)
[16:10] <rootsr> ok will try
[16:10] <rootsr> thanks
[16:10] <WJ3rd> can anyone help me mount with write access an ecrypted drive
[16:11] <WJ3rd> i can do it with read access only
[16:11] <younder> WJ3rd, You should not have any acess at all
[16:11] <WJ3rd> im using ecryptfs-recover-private
[16:12] <younder> WJ3rd, So you want to return to the GRUB?
[16:12] <WJ3rd> whats your first language younder
[16:13] <younder> WJ3rd, The first I really loved C
[16:13] <martin4> Is there a way to pipe /dev/null or something to a file which then can be downloaded with wget or etc for speed test?
[16:13] <WJ3rd> younder i mean verbal language
[16:13] <somsip> martin4: nulls might get compressed so not much point
[16:13] <younder> WJ3rd, english
[16:14] <nicomachus> martin4: are you just trying to a CLI speedtest?
[16:14] <somsip> martin4: maybe http://superuser.com/questions/470949/how-do-i-create-a-1gb-random-file-in-linux
[16:14] <nicomachus> martin4: just use this: https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli
[16:14] <younder> whatever this is a norwegian keyboard
[16:15] <younder> makes everything a bit more clumsy
[16:16] <nicomachus> martin4: I use that github script, and then have just assigned an alias to run that whenever I type "speedtest".
[16:16] <younder> nicomachus, what?
[16:17] <llutz> !info iperf3 | martin4:
[16:17] <martin4> I tried the speedtest script from pip but I want to test with wget aswell. I have tested with iperf aswell
[16:17] <nicomachus> martin4: and then you get a nice output: https://paste.ubuntu.com/15552808/
[16:17] <nicomachus> younder: I was addressing martin4, as indicated by the "martin4:" which begins the comment.
[16:18] <Jonathan__> I need to send backup to an external ftp server but ufw is blocking passive transfert (mandatory), is there a solution ?
[16:18] <younder> nicomachus, sorry for that
[16:18] <younder> sudo ufw allow ftw
[16:18] <younder> sudo ufw allow ftp
[16:18] <Jonathan__> already done
[16:19] <younder> well then it is not he firewall
[16:19] <younder> usudo ufw status numbered
[16:20] <younder> what does hat give you
[16:20] <Jonathan__> http://pastebin.com/igWr0Ccm
[16:20] <younder> (sory for heinterference from my eyboard)
[16:21] <Jonathan__> but I think the issue is because the transfert try to open random ports ?
[16:22] <sakrecoer> llutz: GParted is still claiming that 29.42 GB are used. filemanager says 2tb available and dumpe2fs says 0 Reserved block counts..
[16:22] <younder> DNS does not just use port 53
[16:23] <Jonathan__> the connection is OK, it's just the transfert failing (timed out), with firewall disabled it's working
[16:23] <sakrecoer> are there any advantages to keep a reserved space..? it's supposed to be a backup drive
[16:23] <younder> i expect it is the bind9 entry hat is giving you truoble
[16:24] <llutz> sakrecoer: the reserved space makes imho only sense on /-fs. it enables root to do things, even when the drive is "full" for users. It makes no sense on pure data-storages
[16:25] <sakrecoer> llutz: thanks!
[16:26] <llutz> sakrecoer: and sorry, no idea why gparted claims those 30GB as used
[16:28] <WJ3rd> younder mine too
[16:28] <WJ3rd> where are you from
[16:28] <sakrecoer> llutz: yeah trying to read up on it with websearch gives me no luck. thought it might have been something cached but reboot didn't do..
[16:29] <sakrecoer> llutz: anyways, highly appreciate your help!
[16:31] <lerner> frostschutz, can these 2 bad sectors evolve into more?
[16:33] <GeekDude> I installed an ubuntu server yesterday and chose 'no' when asked if I wanted to automatically update/important update. If I wanted to change that, would 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades' be the correct way to go about that? Does it produce the same results as picking yes during installation, or does it just accomplish the same thing by different means?
[16:35] <frostschutz> lerner, sure, it's even likely there already are more
[16:35] <frostschutz> lerner, if you don't already have a backup of your data, you should make one now...
[16:38] <WJ3rd> i need to delete .Xauthority on an encrypted home folder.  whats the easiest way within a live dvd
[16:38] <WJ3rd> i can get at the file but dont have write access
[16:39] <Peasant65> Hi !! I have a problem with my ubuntu 15.10 minimal-cd install. By default it doesn't boot into anything graphical (including cli), however, i can access it via ssh. Now if I hold shift during boot (grub menu) and start the first and only default boot option everything is fine.
[16:40] <ioria> WJ3rd,  did you use ecryptfs-recover-private ?
[16:41] <Peasant65> Can someone help me with this ?
[16:42] <WJ3rd> i go into shell prompt and see 'give root password for maintenance' and the only password ive set for ubuntu i use and it says incorrect.  whats up with this
[16:42] <nolsen_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15553138/
[16:43] <WJ3rd> ioria, yes i can use that, and it works, except that there is no write access
[16:43] <ioria> WJ3rd,  ls -l .Xauthority
[16:44] <WJ3rd> ioria one moment, rebooting thanks
[16:47] <l4m8d4> Hey there, my question is, is it possible to upgrade from stable 15.10 to beta 16.04? And if yes, will it also be possible to upgrade from the 16.04 beta to 16.04 stable when it comes out?
[16:47] <Peasant65> Please help me I get a black screen at my ubuntu 15.10 minimal install
[16:47] <Peasant65> It does boot but without visuals whatsoever (confirmed via SSH)
[16:48] <ioria> Peasant65, mini-iso has no gui, you have to install it... how did you install it  ?
[16:48] <jaywink> hey all. Any idea what could cause when running a python script that does "os.system('service foobar restart')" in root terminal, everything works, but the same script in root crontab gives 'unrecognized service'? The upstart conf file is in /etc/init and as said, service works normally but not via root crontab
[16:48] <Peasant65> ioria: that's not what i mean, I want a cli, but the screen stays black
[16:48] <Peasant65> ioria: It does give me video output if i start using the grub menu (holding shift)
[16:48] <ioria> Peasant65,  you mean the installer does not start ?
[16:49] <Peasant65> ioria: I''ve allready installed, and it boots just fine (can login with ssh). But it only gives me video if i start holding shift and selectinf the Default (and only) boot option (ubuntu)
[16:49] <l4m8d4> Peasant65: You mean not even a virtual terminal login is shown? But you got SSH access?
[16:49] <Peasant65> l4m8d4: yes exactly
[16:49] <l4m8d4> Ok I see
[16:50] <ioria> Peasant65,  got it
[16:50] <Peasant65> but it does show a tty when i start using the grub menu
[16:50] <ioria> Peasant65,  tried  nomodeset  ?
[16:50] <l4m8d4> Peasant65: What graphics hardware are you using?
[16:51] <burt_93> hello everyone, new user here on xubuntu and i got a probelm with updates. i get error 404 after sudo apt-get update
[16:51] <Peasant65> I'm using intel intergrated graphics (intel N3050 cpu)
[16:52] <Peasant65> ioria: is that a command? If yes, it isn't recognized
[16:52] <l4m8d4> It's a fairly new one, might be that ubuntu has some problems with it by default.
[16:52] <ioria> Peasant65, no, is a kernel boot parameter , you can set it in Grub
[16:52] <Peasant65> ioria: ah ok
[16:53] <l4m8d4> Peasant65: You could set kernel parameter when editing /etc/default/grub via ssh and updating grub with update-grub
[16:53] <Peasant65> ioria: is the default boot option in grub (so no grub menu) something else then the first option in the list?
[16:53] <Peasant65> l4m8d4: ioria I'll try it out
[16:53] <ioria> Peasant65, advanced option -> 'e'  find 'linux' and after quite splash add  nomodeset
[16:54] <ioria> Peasant65, F10, to restart
[16:54] <l4m8d4> ioria: Would that be a permanent change to the kernel parameters?
[16:54] <ioria> l4m8d4, nope
[16:55] <ioria> l4m8d4, for that you have to edit /etc/default/grub
[16:56] <Peasant65> ioria: editing the line in grub menu wouldnt be usefull since my system allready boots correctly when i boot via the grub menu
[16:56] <l4m8d4> ioria:  yep. I was just wondering because I've never tried to edit the grub kernel parameters via grub. If there was something wrong with them I always used chroot to fix it :D
[16:56] <Jonathan__> how can I configure ufw to transfert files in ftp passive mode ?
[16:56] <ioria> l4m8d4, it's ok
[16:57] <ioria> Peasant65,  i think it's not a boot issue, but graphic issue
[16:58] <Peasant65> ioria: Maybe it could have soemthing to do with power saving features ? Like grub would be able to get hdmi to activate itself and ubuntu wouldnt ?
[16:59] <ioria> Peasant65,  idk that, sorry
[17:00] <Peasant65> ioria: nomodeset didn't fix it
[17:01] <Peasant65> l4m8d4: nomodeset didn't fix it. Have you got an7 other ideas? :)
[17:03] <ioria> Peasant65,  can you paste /var/log/Xorg.0.log  ?
[17:04] <Peasant65> ioria: I don't think i have one? I didn't install a window manager
[17:04] <WJ3rd-2> ioria sorry takes a while to bootup with dvd.  -rw------- 1 name name
[17:04] <Peasant65> ioria: anyhow, it isn't there
[17:04] <compdoc> Peasant65,  how much ram do you give the onboard video in trhe bios settings?
[17:05] <Peasant65> compdoc: Not a clue, let me check that :)
[17:05] <ioria> WJ3rd-2, it's ok, why do you want remove it ?
[17:05] <jimmy51v_> having trouble mounting a cifs share from the 15.10 livecd.  had no trouble in 14.04.  error reported is 'filesystem not supported by system'.  started looking at modprobe cifs, it errors.
[17:06] <jimmy51v_> uname -r shows kernel 4.2 as expected.  /lib/modules/{kernel version} shows kernel of 3.13.
[17:06] <jimmy51v_> is that suspicous?  seems like the kernel version folder for the modules should match the live kernel
[17:06] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, it was suggested i remove it because something went wrong somewhere on my system and now when i try and login as my usual user there is an endless loop and i cant login
[17:06] <Peasant65> compdoc: 64MB
[17:07] <compdoc> Peasant65, I usually boot my servers to cli, but if I want a desktop, I use at least 1G ram
[17:07] <compdoc> yikes
[17:07] <compdoc> 64M is tiny
[17:07] <jimmy51v_> was my question that hard?
[17:08] <jimmy51v_> made half of the room quit!
[17:08] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  ok,  if the ownership of that file would be root:root  , would be good to chown it... but it's not
[17:08] <Peasant65> compdoc: I don't want a GUI (yet) It should boot into cli, no x or window manager installed
[17:08] <compdoc> jimmy51v_, your question broke the internet
[17:08] <compdoc> Peasant65, still, try giving it more
[17:08] <Peasant65> i will
[17:09] <Peasant65> compdoc: can't give it more than half a gig though
[17:09] <WJ3rd-2> ioria right
[17:09] <jimmy51v_> !cifs
[17:09] <jimmy51v_> !info cifs
[17:09] <compdoc> Peasant65, as little as possible until it works, if thats the problem
[17:09] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, well id still need write access which i dont have
[17:09] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, i cant write to the drive
[17:10] <WJ3rd-2> with any user
[17:10] <ioria> Peasant65,  remove quite splash and replace with   text systemd.unit=multi-user.target
[17:10] <naresh> hi guys
[17:10] <compdoc> cifs = samba
[17:10] <Peasant65> compdoc: giving it more ram didn't change anything
[17:11] <jimmy51v_> !info cifs-utils
[17:11] <compdoc> Peasant65, oh well
[17:11] <Guest68864> i want to connect internet with Belkin router. how can i do this
[17:11] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  as you can read here, if you are using liveCd and decrypted file under tmp, you have to use sudo for write access http://www.howtogeek.com/116297/how-to-recover-an-encrypted-home-directory-on-ubuntu/
[17:11] <younder> cut then pleasantries. we are hundreds here naresh
[17:12] <Guest68864> on ubuntu connect internet with Belkin ... i need help
[17:13] <younder> Guest68864, how?
[17:13] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, use sudo in what sense?  i ran ecryptfs-private-recover with sudo, and iirc i tried to delete the file with sudo too, to no avail
[17:14] <younder> Guest68864, apperentry which Belkin devic?
[17:14] <Guest68864> younder:  is there i need any driver or software
[17:14] <younder> Guest68864, apperentry which Belkin devic?
[17:15] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   "You can access this directory to view the decrypted versions of your files. However, you may not have read access to this directory as the live CD user."
[17:15] <Peasant65> ioria: setting it to "text" worked, but was a little quircky
[17:15] <Guest68864> younder: wireless G router model : F5D7230-4
[17:15] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, yeah i can view and copy it though
[17:15] <younder> Belcin is just a company a driver is slaaved to a spesific device
[17:15] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  "To access the directory with a graphical file browser, run Nautilus as root. Press Alt+F2, type gksu nautilus, and press Enter."
[17:15] <Peasant65> ioria: It gave me unreadable pixelated text the first 2 seconds of boot
[17:16] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, anyway we slice it, i cannot delete the file.  can i share with you my larger issue?
[17:16] <ioria> Peasant65,  you replace with 'text' or with 'systemd.unit=multi-user.target'  ?
[17:16] <younder> Guest68864, http://www.twm-kd.com/linux/realtek-rtl81688111e-and-ubuntu-linux/
[17:17] <Peasant65> ioria: text
[17:17] <ioria> Peasant65,  try the second
[17:17] <Peasant65> ioria: what does the second one do ?
[17:17] <ioria> Peasant65,  the same, but specifically fo 15.10 systemd
[17:17] <Guest68864> younder: wht type of help is there ?
[17:18] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  i often used that method, and always worked ......
[17:18] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, so you could rm a file for instance?
[17:19] <Peasant65> ioria: nothing changed. Still garbage unreadably blocky text during boot for the first ~2 seconds
[17:19] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  yes
[17:19] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, i see
[17:19] <Peasant65> ioria: it's not really a problem though, it does boot to a cli in the correct resolution now
[17:20] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, if i can delete the file, and still have an issue, do you suggest i create a new user ... at least ill be able to log in at all
[17:20] <ioria> Peasant65,  ok... take a read , could be useful http://ask.xmodulo.com/boot-into-command-line-ubuntu-debian.html
[17:20] <Peasant65> ioria: thx :)
[17:21] <ioria> Peasant65,  goo luck. mini-iso is tricky
[17:21] <ioria> *d
[17:21] <younder> Guest68864, kinda arbitrary
[17:21] <Peasant65> ioria: how so? is it that different from the server install >
[17:21] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  boot you system and choose Guest Account
[17:21] <ioria> Peasant65,  yes, a bit
[17:22] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, yes guest works, but i need things a bit more normal than that heh
[17:23] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  mv ~/.config and /compiz    to  ~/config.backup    and  ~/.compiz.backup
[17:23] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  mv ~/.config and /.compiz    to  ~/config.backup    and  ~/.compiz.backup
[17:24] <NapelEoN> a
[17:25] <Peasant65> ioria: well, i got the same problem again, but now after about 4 minutes of no use... Like a screensaver, but it won't wake up from it
[17:25] <ioria> Peasant65,  screensaver ? on cli ?
[17:26] <Peasant65> ioria: I know raspbian has one
[17:26] <ioria> Peasant65,  oh...
[17:26] <lerner> frostschutz, what do I need to backup? my home directory is enough, right?
[17:26] <Peasant65> ioria: but it wakes as soon as you hit spacebar (or probably any other key)
[17:26] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, oh is that all?
[17:27] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   did you backup the two folders  ?
[17:27] <WJ3rd-2> under /home right?  i will backup before  deleting
[17:28] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   no need to delete
[17:28] <WJ3rd-2> waiting for machine to catchup to try deleting .Xauthority first
[17:28] <WJ3rd-2> err mv
[17:28] <younder> Sounds archaic
[17:28] <younder> arn't you using gome
[17:29] <younder> gnome
[17:31] <WJ3rd-2> yes
[17:31] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   still on liveCD ?
[17:32] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, yes i am.  and i dont have gksu to run gksu nautilus.  easy way to install?
[17:32] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   boot the system and open a console
[17:33] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, reboot and do not use live cd?
[17:33] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  your system, not the liveCD
[17:33] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  yes
[17:33] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, well another issue i have is that when i drop and go to a console it doesnt like my root password, but i reset it with the live cd 'passwd root'
[17:33] <WJ3rd-2> and it still doesnt work
[17:34] <WJ3rd-2> or is that a different root?
[17:34] <ioria> !root ! WJ3rd-2
[17:35] <ioria> !root | WJ3rd-2
[17:35] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, ok that makes sense, but it says enter your password or hit control-D, and either way i cant proceed
[17:36] <younder> sudu su &&b paswd rot fuckit && so user just thought I should mention it
[17:36] <younder> the root is inherent in the od sudo can't eraticate it
[17:37] <younder> many people would object tio what I just told you
[17:37] <jimmy51v_> when i boot the 15.10 liveCD, uname -r shows kernel 4.2.  however, ls /lib/modules/ shows a kernel folder of 3.13.  why is that?
[17:37] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, i ran nautilus as root in live dvd and i cannot mv that .Xauthority.  i think theres a step missing
[17:38] <WJ3rd-2> i can see the /home directory but it is encrypted still
[17:38] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  you don't have to move .Xauthority ...
[17:38] <younder> WJ3rd-2, I have had a problem with a encrypted rooot
[17:39] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  if your files are decrypted , should show in /tmp folder ....
[17:39] <younder> WJ3rd-2, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto2
[17:40] <younder> ioria, bulshit
[17:40] <WJ3rd-2> oh i wasnt in /tmp  yes i see it now
[17:41] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  The command will mount the encrypted directory in your /tmp directory.
[17:41] <WJ3rd-2> but i cant touch .Xauthority
[17:41] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  ok.....  ls -l .Xauthority
[17:41] <younder> so much swada anyone on NFS
[17:42] <younder> LOL your all on SAMBA
[17:42] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, -rw------- 1 1000 1000
[17:43] <Peasant65> ioria: Allright, so this has to do with setterm -blank
[17:43] <ioria> Peasant65,  really ?
[17:43] <nrosvall> what big companies are using ubuntu on desktops/workstations? Does anyone know.
[17:43] <Peasant65> ioria: yea, if i put it on 0 the "power saving" stuff doesn't hapen anymore
[17:44] <ioria> WJ3rd-2    i don't think it's a .Xauthority issue ..... you can delete it if you want, will be recreated ... but why ?
[17:44] <ioria> Peasant65,  good
[17:45] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, so that i can login with my normal username
[17:45] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, and avoid the login loop
[17:45] <nacc> nrosvall: offtopic for this channel
[17:46] <WJ3rd-2> can you or someone tell me how i can just get back into ubuntu.  i need to get in quick to do work
[17:46] <ioria> WJ3rd-2    1000 mean your user, not root
[17:46] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, ok so you asked if i could log in as a guest without the live dvd right?  i can do that
[17:47] <WJ3rd-2> ive been at this for over 5 hours
[17:47] <ioria> WJ3rd-2    ok,  and you can't open a console ?
[17:47] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, no i can try again and give you the error message
[17:47] <reisio> WJ3rd-2: after hour four I usually recommend having one's sultry secretary do the rest of the work
[17:49] <ioria> WJ3rd-2 btw, for reset password from liveCd you need to chroot
[17:49] <WJ3rd-2> ioria ok
[17:49] <WJ3rd-2> i am in as guest now
[17:49] <arcsky> hey there is differnt keyboard layout in my shell how can i switch back? i have only ssh access.
[17:50] <ioria> WJ3rd-2 exit and try to open a console
[17:51] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, through recovery right/>
[17:51] <WJ3rd-2> ?
[17:51] <ioria> WJ3rd-2 nope, maybe we can do that after
[17:52] <WJ3rd-2> ioria how shall i get to that console
[17:52] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  ctrl+alt+f1 (or f2)
[17:53] <reisio> arcsky: so you want to change the layout outside of X?
[17:53] <arcsky> reisio: i connect via putty
[17:54] <reisio> arcsky: try: dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
[17:54] <WJ3rd-2> ioria oh great i am in the console as either the user i want, or root
[17:55] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   you don't use root on Ubuntu
[17:55] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   can you paste  ls -a ~
[17:56] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   sorry   ls -al  ~
[17:56] <WJ3rd-2> ioria not sure what you mean by no root on ubuntu.  i cant really paste from that console.  what can i describe for you
[17:56] <WJ3rd-2> no internet ^^
[17:57] <WJ3rd-2> with that machine
[17:58] <ioria> WJ3rd-2     no internet ?   it means not working, or you don't have it at all on that pc  ?
[17:58] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, im at work and i dont have the wifi password
[17:59] <ioria> WJ3rd-2     ls -al .Xauthority
[17:59] <WJ3rd-2> this machine is tied to the cable
[18:00] <wad> Hey guys, so I just started a new job as a "senior software developer", at a large, well-established company. And I want replace Windows with Ubuntu on the laptop they gave me. But the IT department says they can't let me. There are a handful of us who want Linux... so I'm needing to train the IT guys.
[18:00] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, i need to mount the partition to see that file again, let me do that please
[18:00] <DirtyCajun> when you cp a folder that has a symlinked folder inside it... does it cp the symlink or the actual files? as in... is cp standards to dereference or not dereference
[18:01] <alvarolm_> hi all ! :), is it safe to share an open unix domain socket ???
[18:01] <wad> One of the requirements is that they can remotely administer antivirus programs on the employee's machines. I'm like, "uhhhh....."
[18:01] <WJ3rd-2> ioria uh oh i dont have ecrypt-recover-private right now
[18:01] <WJ3rd-2> nvm
[18:01] <wad> I'd appreciate any links to articles that will help me convince a Windows-centric IT department that Linux can be "secure" in their eyes.
[18:02] <genii> wad: Since this is not really an Ubuntu support question, you might want to ask in #ubuntu-offtopic instead
[18:02] <wad> mmkay, thanks
[18:03] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  if you log in your system, home will be  decrypted  .... no need for  ecrypt-recover-private
[18:04] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, yes thats the issue, cant login... only got the console going on here
[18:04] <Peasant65> All *RandR are part of Xorg right? So if I have no Xorg installed I have nothing to do with them ?
[18:04] <WJ3rd-2> but i cant find anything with that command omfg
[18:04] <WJ3rd-2> gotta mount perhaps
[18:05] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   in console you can log in like with your gui login-screen .... it's the same
[18:06] <WJ3rd-2> ioria yes im logged in
[18:06] <WJ3rd-2> i thought you were saying something else
[18:07] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   run ls  .... the file are clear or encrypted ?
[18:07] <ioria> *s
[18:07] <WJ3rd-2> ioria got it now, its -rw------- 1 myuser myuser
[18:08] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   it's ok..... cat /etc/issue
[18:08] <WJ3rd-2> Ubuntu 15.04 \n \l
[18:09] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   15.04 is dead btw
[18:09] <teward> !15.04 | WJ3rd-2
[18:09] <WJ3rd-2> l not 1 sorry
[18:09] <WJ3rd-2> ioria i know, as of last month... waiting for april's ltr
[18:09] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   pwd
[18:10] <WJ3rd-2> thats /tmp/ecryptfs.voHEWMd8
[18:11] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   still on live CD ?
[18:11] <WJ3rd-2> ioria no, logged in through console like you asked
[18:11] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   cd ~
[18:11] <WJ3rd-2> pwd  is root after cd ~
[18:11] <WJ3rd-2> i mean /root
[18:12] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   nope, your home     username:username    home folder
[18:13] <WJ3rd-2> ioria sry what are you asking for ?  not fully clear
[18:13] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  type   id
[18:13] <cybrNaut> http://www.irssi.org/scripts <= that's a dead link on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi
[18:13] <WJ3rd-2> ioria as user or root?
[18:14] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   as user, always as user, never as root on Ubuntu
[18:15] <WJ3rd-2> ioria you want the whole line?  kinda long
[18:15] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   just the uid
[18:15] <WJ3rd-2> uid=1000(myuser)
[18:15] <ioria> WJ3rd-2   ok,   cd ~  and pwd
[18:16] <WJ3rd-2> cd ~ ... no such file or dir (because that is the encrypted one in /tmp
[18:16] <WJ3rd-2> pwd is in /home
[18:17] <WJ3rd-2> i have /home on a seperate partition
[18:17] <WJ3rd-2> i knew sry
[18:18] <WJ3rd-2> trying to change the system!
[18:19] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  you can't cd in your home folder ?
[18:20] <WJ3rd-2> ioria no i can go to /home/ but not /home/user/ because /home/user/ is under /tmp/that_folder/
[18:20] <WJ3rd-2> i can go there without '~'
[18:20] <sruli> i made a system update using software updater, its been stuck for past hour on "update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.16.0-67-generic" if i reboot will i have a problem?
[18:21] <WJ3rd-2> i run pwd in that /tmp/that_folder/ and it just lists the same path, /tmp/that_folder/
[18:22] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, make sense?
[18:24] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  well, you used ecryptfs-recover-private from a livecd that mounts the files in a temporary folder .... but after reboot the folder should be gone
[18:25] <cj> howdy homies!
[18:25] <WJ3rd-2> ioria, i ran  ecryptfs-recover-private from console, and it did exactly that in my /tmp/ folder
[18:25] <cj> how do I register a new project on the launchpad?  I don't see a "create" link on the front page...
[18:25] <WJ3rd-2> i did this again after logging into console
[18:25] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  you run it again ?
[18:25] <WJ3rd-2> i had to get the ls on .Xauthority for you
[18:25] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  no
[18:25] <cj> oh look.  https://help.launchpad.net/Projects/Registering
[18:25] <teward> cj: #launchpad
[18:26] <teward> cj: go to that channel for Launchpad specific help.  Also refer to its help docs
[18:26] <teward> cj: if you're logged in and on the front page, "Register a new project"
[18:26] <teward> it's there ;)
[18:26] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  as i said, if you can succesfuly login, the home folder will be decrypted automatically
[18:27] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  no need to run ecryptfs-recover-private

[18:29] <Industrial> Hi.
[18:29] <Industrial> Is there a PPA for Docker and Docker Compose ?
[18:29] <Industrial> I'm running into problems with docker-compose
[18:30] <Industrial> I get a python stack trace with a valid config file

[18:30] <hexicpyth> Hi, my son uses this computer at school, and it has ubuntu 14.04 on it. Whenever the he closes the lid, and the laptop sleep/suspends, and he moves to a different area of the school, the wifi menu in ubuntu just doesnt show any networks and wont connect to anything saved, new, or hidden. If he restarts the laptop(really quick with it's ssd), the connections will show up & connect. Is there any way to somehow treat the  sig
[18:30] <hexicpyth> nal extenders all like the same AP? Or maybe to leave wfi on when the computer sleeps? Thanks in advance
[18:31] <trism> cybrNaut: fixed the links
[18:32] <hexicpyth> It has an intel wireless 7620 card, and uses the default "Iwlwifi" driver
[18:33] <mcphail> hexicpyth: that might be a similar issue we see on the Ubuntu phone, where networkmanager takes ages to identify a change of location. I think they are working on a fix...
[18:34] <hexicpyth> mvphail, Would that also explain te wifi disconnecting afterwards, and the restart needed? thanks
[18:34] <hexicpyth> *mcphail
[18:34] <younder> networking nightmare.. ok
[18:34] <younder> let's work it through
[18:35] <mcphail> hexicpyth: yes, I think so. Symptoms sound similar. You might be able to get a temporary fix by disabling and reenabling networking in the config menu
[18:35] <younder> cat /etc/networking/interfaces
[18:35] <younder> are you using network manager=
[18:36] <hexicpyth> me? I think unity comes with network manager right?
[18:36] <younder> What devices do yo have connected+
[18:36] <hexicpyth> I mean, this only happens at his school
[18:36] <younder> Any unususl to unix device drivers?
[18:36] <younder> anything like that
[18:36] <hexicpyth> I dont know everything that is connected. I think it has something to do with the amount of network extenders requires for the building
[18:36] <nacc> hexicpyth: so suspend/resume at home (do you have multiple APs in play at home) works ok?
[18:36] <Pici> !who
[18:37] <hexicpyth> nacc, I tried that, and it connect's fine
[18:37] <nacc> hexicpyth: have you/he tried restarting network manager after s/r at school?
[18:37] <nacc> hexicpyth: rather than restarting, i mean
[18:37] <hexicpyth> and younder, I did check, and the only driver is iwlwifi. I checked with "sudo lshw -C network"
[18:38] <younder> hexicpyth, good boy
[18:38] <younder> ;)
[18:38] <hexicpyth> nacc, no I have not. How would I go about that? would it just be a killall Networkmanager && killall nm-applet thing?
[18:38] <hexicpyth> :)
[18:38] <nacc> hexicpyth: iirc, `sudo service NetworkManager restart` ?
[18:39] <nacc> hexicpyth: it would be interesting to know what's in the logs when it happens too; possibly iwscan output after resume
[18:39] <younder> hexicpyth, you know of: sudo service <name> restart
[18:39] <hexicpyth> Looks like it might work
[18:39] <hexicpyth> I just tried it here, but ill have him try it at school
[18:40] <younder> sudo service networking restart doenst work as well as it used to as it might lleave a few devices hanging, but as a quick and dirty it is worth a try
[18:40] <nacc> hexicpyth: not sure why that's necessary, it shouldn't be ... but could be the effort/bug referred to earlier, or something new
[18:41] <hexicpyth> younder, what do you mean devices hanging? There are no devices plugged into this computer
[18:41] <hexicpyth> (Except for of course all the adapters and motherboard stuff)
[18:43] <younder> nacc: the try it
[18:43] <nacc> younder: ?
[18:43] <lightdeprived> Good day, would anyone be able to assist with a wine related issue?
[18:43] <reisio> no, but some ones might be able to
[18:44] <younder> nacc: are we talking a server or a desktop conf?
[18:45] <lightdeprived> desktop
[18:45] <WJ3rd-2> ioria
[18:45] <lightdeprived> sorry, wrong guy :)
[18:45] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  yep
[18:45] <hexicpyth> nacc, I think you PM'ed me. No I have not tried yet
[18:46] <younder> lightdeprived, What us this wine issue?
[18:46] <WJ3rd-2> ioria oh good.  no im not seeing my /home/myuser/ folder
[18:46] <jwitko> Hey guys, I'm having issues rebooting my server on Ubuntu 14.04.4.  a command of "shutdown -vr now" shows this on the console indefinitely until I reboot:  http://i.imgur.com/qu7WTiV.jpg  -  Can anyone help?
[18:46] <WJ3rd-2> after logging in
[18:46] <lightdeprived> I install winehq-devel from the official ppa, and removed it using apt-get purge. Now when I try to install it again I get the error "Command 'wine' not found"
[18:47] <ioria> WJ3rd-2  so, decryption not working ....
[18:47] <Pici> lightdeprived: what command are you actually running to install it?
[18:47] <younder> WJ3rd-2, do yo have an encrypted home directory?
[18:47] <lightdeprived> Pici: sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-devel
[18:47] <WJ3rd-2> younder yes
[18:48] <Mia> hy all
[18:48] <WJ3rd-2> on its own partition too
[18:48] <Mia> I have lxde setup on ubuntu server
[18:48] <Mia> how can I stop it frm auto log in to the startx
[18:48] <WJ3rd-2> or maybe the partition is encrypted too, dont recall
[18:48] <younder> WJ3rd-2, for wht i'ts woth so do I. And it has happened to me
[18:48] <Pici> lightdeprived: can you pastebin the exact error?
[18:48] <Mia> I don2t want it to auto login to desktop
[18:48] <Mia> any way to stop this ?
[18:49] <WJ3rd-2> there was an error that fsck fixed, but i cant login now
[18:49] <WJ3rd-2> the error was on that home drive/partition
[18:49] <WJ3rd-2> ioria any ideas on how to proceed?
[18:49] <younder> WJ3rd-2, http://askubuntu.com/questions/115497/encrypted-home-directory-not-auto-mounting
[18:49] <lightdeprived> Pici: http://pastebin.com/Vy4TRSAa
[18:50] <Pici> lightdeprived: er, did you successfully install winehq-devel?
[18:50] <lightdeprived> Yes
[18:51] <lightdeprived> Pici: http://pastebin.com/DVttWdzC
[18:51] <younder> WJ3rd-2, How have you partioned your drive? nonstadard or did you go with stock
[18:52] <WJ3rd-2> younder usually start with stock and customize a bit
[18:52] <sruli> i made a system update using software updater, its been stuck for past hour on "update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.16.0-67-generic" if i reboot will i have a problem?
[18:53] <younder> WJ3rd-2, You have either created new partions or you have not.. Whch is it?
[18:54] <nacc> sruli: it is possible you will not be able to boot successfully into that kernel if you don't let it finish; do you have any binary modules?
[18:55] <Pici> lightdeprived: You may want to ask the folks in #winehq about this.
[18:55] <lightdeprived> Pici: okay thank you
[18:56] <sruli> nacc: not sure if i have binary, just made regular update using software updater
[18:57] <younder> nacc I have had a standart updater not bot
[18:57] <younder> nacc had to go into grub and boot into shell
[18:58] <younder> nacc ten I could fix the graphicsdriver mistake
[18:58] <nacc> younder: ? I don't know why you are directing that at me, I didn't interact with you?

[19:00] <flopsec> Hello, I'm having an issue with OpenVPN: I can connect to the VPN, but then the internet doesn't work.  Any ideas?
[19:02] <math854> hello
[19:02] <younder> flopsec, yes, You need to change the default internet option to bridge
[19:03] <hinnerk> Hi. I have a samba question. smb.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15554317  The shared 'shared' should be so, that all users in the group 'gshared' are allowed to read/write/delete files in the share. Since I force group to gshared, I would have expected that this works - but it doesn't. What am I doing wrong?
[19:04] <flopsec> Where do I do that?
[19:04] <younder> flopsec, http://askubuntu.com/questions/499318/virtual-machine-ubuntu-cannot-connect-to-internet
[19:05] <sruli> nacc: i rebooted into previous kernel made apt-get install -f and rebooted into new kernel, dont know if the install -f was required but works
[19:06] <nacc> sruli: that was probably the smart thing to do :) glad it worked
[19:06] <sruli> thanks

[19:31] <kolesekanisius_3> EriC^^, Okay sudo parted -l.

[19:45] <Skyrider> Is it possible to soft-restart ubuntu from shell? eg.. logout -> login (automated) seeing its done through the terminal.
[19:47] <Skyrider> With automated, I mean auto re-login.
[19:48] <urthmover> Skyrider: are you using ssh?
[19:48] <Skyrider> yup, no desktop.
[19:48] <urthmover> why not logoff and back in over ssh?
[19:48] <Skyrider> I need to free up memory, and restart all the software.
[19:49] <Skyrider> If I restart my pi, it'll force a fsck.
[19:49] <Skyrider> I don't want that.. so was thinking about logging out / logging in instead.
[19:49] <urthmover> hmm
[19:49] <urthmover> can't you kill processes and restart them?
[19:51] <urthmover> maybe restart services
[19:52] <jatt> what's wrong with fsck?
[19:53] <paragon__> qwerty
[19:53] <Skyrider> jatt: on a pi, it's terrible.
[19:54] <Skyrider> Takes ages, and never finishes. Am forced to do it on a linux system, which also takes about 20/30min.
[19:54] <zhxk82> gentleman, suggest me an Irc client for ubuntu cli, thank you!
[19:54] <kazuka> hi
[19:54] <urthmover> zhxk82: irssi
[19:55] <kazuka> what kind of technology is raspberry pi, arduino and minnowmax board
[19:57] <guntbert> kazuka: that's not really an Ubuntu support question, is it?
[19:57] <jason__> can someone recommend a good desktop recorder? I tried kazam and it's awful.
[19:58] <jason__> I'd like to be able to record a single window without selecting a rectangle around it
[20:00] <zhxk82> !paste

[20:04] <momelod> greetings channel.
[20:04] <Jennifer_> hello
[20:04] <momelod> im hosting a local ubuntu mirror and on my hosts i get this error: W: GPG error: http://repo.dev precise Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 7B92F0966226E616
[20:05] <momelod> 7B92F0966226E616 is getting generated locally its not on any public keyserver
[20:05] <Jennifer_> Anyone good with SSh issues? I had some trouble with my server last night
[20:05] <Jennifer_> *SSH
[20:05] <momelod> how do i find which Release file is signed with that pubkey
[20:07] <momelod> Jennifer_: whats the ssh issue
[20:08] <Jennifer_> momelod: last night i was copying some files for my plex server when the connection cut out on FTP and SSH. tried again this morning to connect but no dice.
[20:09] <Jennifer_> there both on port 22 also
[20:09] <bekks> Jennifer_: FTP is port 21, SSH is port 22, SFTP is ung SSH and is on port 22, too.
[20:10] <Jennifer_> bekks: my bad. your right
[20:10] <Jennifer_> i did some restarting but nothing
[20:10] <Jennifer_> got any idea what may have caused this?
[20:10] <bekks> Jennifer_: some restarting what?
[20:11] <bekks> And caused what?
[20:11] <Jennifer_> i restarted my server and modem
[20:12] <bekks> Jennifer_: I dont see why restarting the server and modem will solve any issues, which arent even described yet.
[20:12] <Jennifer_> bekks: my SFTP and SSH connections cut out randomly last night for some reason
[20:13] <bekks> Jennifer_: And which error messages did you get when trying to reconnect?
[20:13] <Jennifer_> they were both timing out
[20:13] <bekks> Jennifer_: The the remote server did not answer.
[20:14] <saulus> hi, I just found that f-spot is not dead. There is a maintained fork and a ppa at https://launchpad.net/~christopher-hoskin/+archive/ubuntu/ppa - however f-spot doesnt show up in apt-get nor aptitude after an update. What could be the issue?
[20:15] <Jennifer_> right, but it just seemed odd for it to be working fine before but now nothing
[20:15] <bekks> Jennifer_: Then the remote server isnt answering, and restarting your client will not change that.
[20:16] <Pici> saulus: that ppa only has f-spot packages for vivid and xenial.
[20:16] <saulus> Pici: can I force the download in my 15.10 somehow?
[20:16] <Jennifer_> is it possible the ports could have closed for some reason?
[20:16] <Pici> saulus: not really
[20:17] <saulus> Pici: Thank you. Then I build the package locally.
[20:17] <bekks> Jennifer_: On the remote server, maybe.
[20:17] <Jennifer_> ahh
[20:17] <Jennifer_> still pretty weird for me
[20:18] <Jennifer_> on my main PC i was connected to my VPN also
[20:18] <Jennifer_> while i was transfering files
[20:18] <bekks> Jennifer_: And on your other PC you werent?
[20:19] <Jennifer_> but that prob wasnt the case either because i tried connecting without it
[20:19] <Jennifer_> no my server wasnt on the VPN
[20:19] <Jennifer_> its primarily used for Plex
[20:19] <bekks> Jennifer_: Sorry, I dont get that setup.
[20:20] <Jennifer_> what bekks ?
[20:20] <bekks> Jennifer_: "main computer", "the other one", "vpn".
[20:20] <bekks> Jennifer_: Which computer is where, how are they connected?
[20:20] <EriC^^> kolesekanisius_3: are you sure rpmb is the partition?
[20:21] <Jennifer_> im sorry. my server is wired and my main pc is where i was copying the files to my server.
[20:23] <bekks> Jennifer_: And both are at the same location?
[20:23] <hoodedice> I have a dual-boot system with xubuntu 14.04 LTS and Windows 10. Is there a way for me to use the xubuntu instance I have like one would a VM while booted into windows?
[20:23] <Jennifer_> well in my house yes but both are in seperate rooms if that helps
[20:24] <bekks> Jennifer_: So check wether the ssh server on the remote computer (the one you were trying to connect to) are running correctly.
[20:24] <Jennifer_> guess i gotta look around for a spare monitor
[20:24] <\9> try ssh -v in case it prints any useful information
[20:36] <frenda> I'm seeing a training video. The user type 'mate .' in a MAC' terminal and an editor raise up.
[20:36] <frenda> here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdSoEkeMXVM
[20:37] <frenda> I tried kate and some others
[20:37] <frenda> they can't
[20:37] <bekks> they cant what?
[20:37] <frenda> 00:00:20
[20:37] <Melio> you can script bash to launch gedit or kate or mate,
[20:37] <Melio> simple aliases
[20:37] <bekks> frenda: I'm not going to watch that video.
[20:38] <Melio> frenda, google linux bash aliases
[20:38] <frenda> bekks cant open the current directory showing available files in sidebar
[20:38] <bekks> frenda: never heard of such a feature.
[20:39] <tgm4883> bekks: I took a look. Basically, it's a graphical editor that has the directory in the sidebar
[20:39] <bekks> tgm4883: ah, hmm, ok. :)
[20:40] <tgm4883> I think I've seen something in Kubuntu do stuff like that, but I've not used Kubuntu in a long time
[20:42] <frenda> Kubuntu stuff: Kwrite and Kate; They couldn't. I need sth like that for demonstration
[20:42] <tgm4883> frenda: I'm assuming you looked through the different options in them?
[20:44] <phaidros> my gpg keys are not unlocked automatically anymore, how can I fix that? what is the default gpg agent in ubuntu these days? seahorse?
[20:45] <bprompt> frenda:    what hmmm do you need the editor to do?   Kate does have a "file browser", check the sidebar
[20:46] <tgm4883> frenda: bprompt is right  http://kate-editor.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/projects1.png
[20:50] <leeg750jm> hello all
[20:52] <buu> Hello friends, how do I make X respect my --dpi setting and make text slightly larger than 2px by 2px
[20:55] <uhollis> ?
[20:56] <buu> I'm running vlc inside xorg
[20:57] <buu> the font is approximately .01 inches tall
[20:57] <buu> How do I fix?
[20:59] <mjoelner> Do you have to tune Ubuntu a lot to work with your computer. I feel that my Ubuntu installtion is sluggish compared to my windows one.
[21:01] <bprompt> mjoelner:    depends I gather, from my experience, not drivers-wise, since the drivers database manages most hardware well enough
[21:07] <bprompt> buu:    if you're referring to the Menu buttons or windows, I believe VLC uses GTK settings for that, so...  you can change the gtk theme setting for the font, to be increased to whichever size, I think you can use "gnome-tweak-tool" for that
[21:07] <buu> um
[21:07] <buu> scary
[21:10] <bprompt> buu:    assuming vlc is using gtk3 theming, then it'd be just a matter of css, since gtk3 themes are pretty much just css code wise, if it's using gtk2 settings hmmm you could use something like gtk-chtheme UI to change it, though it's also code, just less flexible than CSS, but usually the "active theme" will have a subfolder gtk2 and gtk3 for each settings
[21:11] <kaudley> Have a question on ubuntu server - I have a Kaveri APU - I run Server with no gui - will the amdgpu driver utilize the unused graphics cores at all?
[21:11] <kaudley> for compute
[21:12] <EOBeav> I'm starting to wonder if 14.04--as I have it loaded, anyway--is too much for my 9 y/o dual core laptop. It's starting to hang up an awful lot.
[21:12] <dontknow> kaudley, i don't think so
[21:14] <kaudley> seems like an awful waste having those 8 Graphics cores sitting there doing nothing...  :(
[21:19] <BlackMage> EOBeav: it depends on the version of Ubuntu and of course also on the laptop
[21:21] <EOBeav> 14.04 ubuntu, 2G of RAM
[21:22] <EOBeav> I don't mind Unity, but really only use ubuntu for a launching pad for the apps
[21:23] <BlackMage> EOBeav: try it with Xubuntu or Lubuntu
[21:25] <JohnnyL> why when using iptables dns fails (but everything else works)?
[21:25] <gnarlin> blocking low range ports by accident?
[21:26] <bekks> JohnnyL: Blocking needed ports?
[21:26] <JohnnyL> 53 in udp and tcp are both openb as ACCEPT in both INPUT and OUTPUT.
[21:26] <JohnnyL> same script works fine in debian.
[21:26] <JohnnyL> anyone have any samples?
[21:26] <bekks> JohnnyL: So check all other rules.
[21:26] <bekks> JohnnyL: our samples will not help you fixing your sample ;)
[21:26] <JohnnyL> bekks: i am telling you this is ubuntu specific.
[21:26] <gnarlin> try disabling iptables and see if it works first before spending lots of time figuring out the rules
[21:27] <bekks> JohnnyL: And I am telling you this is config dependant.
[21:27] <JohnnyL> if I change OUTPUT to ACCEPT everything works.
[21:27] <bekks> So it is your config.
[21:27] <JohnnyL> and when I just use it as is, i can ping any address, it's just not resolving hostnames.
[21:29] <JohnnyL> bekks: same script works fine in debian.
[21:29] <bekks> JohnnyL: So check your iptables config.
[21:30] <JohnnyL> it's like ubuntu doesn't want you to filter output? perhaps becasue it wants to talk to home and update it's master server?
[21:30] <JohnnyL> bekks: done 100x. :)
[21:30] <bekks> JohnnyL: How are we supposed to tell you without seeing that script, without seeing your config, etc.?
[21:30] <grhthy> hi guys
[21:30] <grhthy> do you recommend using open source amd driver over fglrx?
[21:31] <grhthy> I'm not sure if I should upgrade to 16.04 without FGLRX
[21:31] <JohnnyL> bekks: you can tell me, by showing me a sample script that includes 'iptables --policy OUTPUT DROP' and works with dns.
[21:31] <leeg750jm> is there a windows support irc
[21:31] <bekks> JohnnyL: how about you showing us your non working sample?
[21:32] <bekks> leeg750jm: Yes, ##windows
[21:32] <JohnnyL> bekks: are you serious? what sense would a firewall be if I put it online?
[21:32] <EOBeav> BlackMage: Yeah, will probably do xubuntu. I've run it before and it works fine in that machine. I guess this is the first ubuntu version that stutters. Not bad for a 9 year old laptop
[21:32] <JohnnyL> my request is not as difficult as your is.
[21:32] <bekks> JohnnyL: But putting my config online is ok? You are kidding.
[21:33] <JohnnyL> bekks: apparently you don't default OUTPUT as drop.
[21:33] <bekks> JohnnyL: Apparently you failed at guessing my config.
[21:33] <JohnnyL> bekks: can you cut and paste the specific not the whole thing?
[21:36] <JohnnyL> yeah thats what I thought
[21:38] <JohnnyL> may switch back to debian.
[21:43] <JohnnyL> looks like a major debug feature in ubuntu!
[21:45] <JohnnyL> i know the ubuntu server records things about the user and sends it back to hqs. i guess this iptables tables features exist so you can't block the transmissions.
[21:46] <bekks> JohnnyL: Thats nonsense.
[21:46] <JohnnyL> bekks: oh?
[21:46] <bekks> JohnnyL: No Ubuntu collects user information and no Ubuntu sends them back to whomever.
[21:46] <JohnnyL> bekks: malarky! i read it in server online techynical news articles.
[21:47] <bekks> JohnnyL: Whatever you read can safely be considered as FUD.
[21:47] <JohnnyL> bekks: you not solving my problem just compounds this idea as proof.
[21:48] <k1l> JohnnyL: that is false informations you got there.
[21:51] <JohnnyL> k1l: prove it
[21:51] <k1l> JohnnyL: no. you prove your accusations  first
[21:52] <tgm4883> can we all simmer down now?
[21:52] <fancyfetus> Hey guys
[21:53] <fancyfetus> You know how LinusTechTips's 7 gamers 1 cpu video? Is there a way to do that on a smaller scale with windows and ubuntu? I'd like to run them side by side without one being the host for the other.
[21:53] <bekks> fancyfetus: then you'd need two computers.
[21:54] <fancyfetus> bekks, have you seen the video I'm talking about?
[21:54] <teward> fancyfetus: you can't do that without one being the host for the other - you need separate systems at that place.
[21:54] <teward> s/place/point/
[21:54] <fancyfetus> He uses unraid as a host and has 7 VMs running on one machine.
[21:54] <bekks> fancyfetus: Nope. But running different OS without using an hypervisor can only be done by using two computers.
[21:54] <teward> fancyfetus: right, but VMs are Virtual Machines.
[21:54] <fancyfetus> yes, I understand that.
[21:54] <teward> fancyfetus: unraid handles the hypervisor role in this place.
[21:55] <fancyfetus> But in his case, one instance of windows wasn't hosting the other instances of windows.
[21:55] <tgm4883> fancyfetus: I'm not sure you are grasping what you are asking "I'd like to run them side by side without one being the host for the other."
[21:55] <fancyfetus> unraid was hosting them all. He was getting fairly good performance out of it too.
[21:55] <teward> fancyfetus: I have a VMware ESXi workstation.  It has a nVidia card, and runs five Windows VMs.  The Windows VMs all can run graphics real decently.
[21:55] <bekks> fancyfetus: because unraid was the hypervisor, and all windows instances were vms.
[21:56] <teward> fancyfetus: VMware ESXi is the hypervisor.  It's not Windows.  The Windows VMs are accessing resources on the hypervisor.
[21:56] <teward> Hypervisor doesn't need to be windows.
[21:56] <fancyfetus> No, I understand that. I want to run both windows and ubuntu as a VM
[21:56] <fancyfetus> at the same time through one GPU
[21:56] <tgm4883> fancyfetus: ok, and?
[21:56] <bekks> fancyfetus: then you still need an OS acting as the hypervisor.
[21:57] <fancyfetus> bekks, my question was going to be if somebody could recommend one.
[21:57] <bekks> fancyfetus: Virtualbox, KVM, XEN.
[21:57] <fancyfetus> bekks, virtualbox can act as a hypervisor OS?
[21:58] <bekks> fancyfetus: No.
[21:58] <JohnnyL> aparently, you can't have -t filter as part of the command for iptables.
[21:58] <bekks> fancyfetus: All hypervisors mentioned above are hypervisors. You need an OS, too.
[21:58] <fancyfetus> I'm looking for as much performance as I can squeeze out of this
[21:58] <bekks> fancyfetus: Like Virtualbox running on Ubuntu. Like KVM running on Ubuntu. etc.
[21:59] <fancyfetus> I see.
[21:59] <hexrain> so, i'm having a strange issue
[21:59] <hexrain> with my clock
[21:59] <fancyfetus> Would it benefit me to have a really lightweight OS as the host?
[21:59] <bekks> fancyfetus: No.
[22:00] <fancyfetus> Why's that?
[22:00] <MonkeyDust> fancyfetus  first try this command  ... egrep -c '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo ... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Installation
[22:00] <bekks> fancyfetus: In fact, you just need one VM. Like Ubuntu host, Windows VM, or vice versa.
[22:00] <hexrain> for some odd reason, my clock keeps setting itself a few days in the future
[22:01] <hexrain> it happens when i wake my system up from suspend
[22:02] <fancyfetus> Hmm, I was under the impression that unraid was providing some sort of performance edge to Linus.
[22:02] <bekks> fancyfetus: Which is a wrong assumption.
[22:02] <Bashing-om> hexrain: Dual booting Windows ... amd Windows controls the hardware clock ??
[22:02] <hexrain> nope
[22:03] <hexrain> that's why it's strange
[22:05] <lvdb> Hello everyone, i would like to test MD5 authentication query for an NTP server i set up and i was wondering if you happen to know a linux command that will query the server using the MD5 key
[22:06] <hexrain> and it only happens when i wake from suspend :/
[22:06] <fancyfetus> MonkeyDust, my cpu has both VT-x and VT-d
[22:06] <fancyfetus> I should be okay
[22:07] <roygbiv> lvdb, i’m not sure what you’re looking for but there’s the md5 shell command that’ll generate an md5 hash from supplied text
[22:07] <Bashing-om> hexrain: Agreed, strange, is " UTC=yes " set in the file /etc/default/rcS ?
[22:08] <hexrain> yep
[22:09] <lvdb> @roybgiv thanks for the reply, but what i need is just to query the server using ntpd or something like that with the MD5 key i have. something like using snmpwalk
[22:09] <Bashing-om> hexrain: Sorry, I do not know enough about the resume process to offer an explanation of what is taking place .
[22:09] <hexrain> what it does, is it sets the date to April 1, 2016 and the time to about 4 hours before my actual one
[22:09] <hexrain> my BIOS is fine btw :/
[22:10] <hexrain> well, it's a UEFI system if that helps.
[22:10] <roygbiv> lvdb, oh wow, not sure on that one. maybe ntpdate?
[22:12] <JohnnyL> kil: 'Egregious' in the immortal words of rms himself. Ubuntu users *might* one to see this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP8CNp-vksc. If you wish to say anything about this kil, now would be the perfect time.
[22:13] <skinux> Is there a command/program that will give all system info, including disk size, memory, and all that?
[22:14] <JohnnyL> skinux: top
[22:14] <sashaxxx> hello
[22:14] <hexrain> oh and it does it whether or not i have the thing set to use network time or not
[22:14] <sashaxxx> please can you give me a quick hint?
[22:14] <k1l> JohnnyL: still no prove for your accusations that ubuntu sends everything even on the server install to "the hqs"
[22:14] <sashaxxx> just a simple answer
[22:14] <skinux> JohnnyL: I don't mean usage, I just mean what the machine has
[22:15] <k1l> skinux: look at "lshw"
[22:15] <sashaxxx> please. i am stuck in an installation and i cant continue
[22:15] <sashaxxx> i will not take you much time
[22:15] <k1l> sashaxxx: which ubuntu? what exact error?
[22:16] <sashaxxx> nope
[22:16] <sashaxxx> ubuntu 15.10
[22:16] <JohnnyL> k1l: Everything you type into the search box gets send to hqs.
[22:16] <sashaxxx> it is already installed.. now i am installing debian on second partition
[22:16] <JohnnyL> What is not to say that anything else is?
[22:16] <Bashing-om> sashaxxx: ^^ and is this a EFI system ?
[22:16] <sashaxxx> yes
[22:16] <JohnnyL> I'm assuming NSA has a few backdoors to boot.
[22:16] <JohnnyL> Just for kickers.
[22:16] <tgm4883> JohnnyL: why would the NSA have backdoors into Ubuntu?
[22:16] <sashaxxx> the fact is.. it's asking me where i want to install the grub
[22:17] <JohnnyL> tgm4883: pedophilic linuxers prolly.
[22:17] <sashaxxx> for this debian
[22:17] <tgm4883> that doesn't even make sense
[22:17] <popey> JohnnyL: enough.
[22:17] <sashaxxx> but i have already installed GRUB bootloader for Ubuntu in sda1
[22:18] <k1l> sashaxxx: you can only have 1 OS manage the grub.
[22:18] <sashaxxx> so i m confused now... where am i supposed to install the grub bootloader gaian
[22:18] <k1l> sashaxxx: i would let  that OS manage the grub, that you boot more often.
[22:18] <sashaxxx> so... i dont have to install it?
[22:18] <Bashing-om> sashaxxx: EFI, where sda1 is the fat partition containing each OS's boot code  ??
[22:19] <sashaxxx> yes... sda1 contain the boot loader
[22:19] <sashaxxx> sda2 contain Ubuntu installed
[22:19] <sashaxxx> and now i am installing debian in sda 4
[22:19] <bekks> sashaxxx: you mean you are using sda1 as /boot and installing the bootloader to sda?
[22:20] <sashaxxx> i dont want to mess it all.. so now it's asking me where to install grub
[22:20] <sashaxxx> i dont know... this debian installer it's just asking me where i want to install the GRUB .. but i have already installed GRUB on sda1 qhen i installed ubuntu before
[22:21] <bekks> sashaxxx: Then how did you boot your box before? With grub installed to sda1 it wont boot.
[22:22] <sashaxxx> i used to boot with GRUB on sda1.. and ubuntu on sda2
[22:22] <bekks> sashaxxx: with the bootloader not being on sda it wouldnt boot.
[22:22] <bekks> sashaxxx: do you use sda1 as /boot?
[22:23] <sashaxxx> i m confused
[22:23] <sashaxxx> well actually i dont know
[22:23] <k1l> sashaxxx: you dont need to install grub again. you can boot ubuntu, run "sudo update-grub" and the entry for debian will be added"
[22:23] <sashaxxx> all i can tell you that i have the screenshot from gparted
[22:23] <sashaxxx> ok
[22:24] <sashaxxx> this is what i wanted to hear
[22:24] <sashaxxx> in-fact i am not sure where grub was installed
[22:24] <sashaxxx> i just know i have this sda1 partition called /boot
[22:24] <Jordan_U> sashaxxx: Unless you have more than one drive, select "sda" as the place to install grub's boot sector. Do not install grub's boot sector to any partition like sda1. That question is only asking about where grub's *boot sector* should be installed, and the answer is always "to the MBR of the drive your BIOS will boot from", i.e. sda if you only have one drive.
[22:25] <sashaxxx> ok so...
[22:25] <sashaxxx> what you suggest: 1) do not install GRUB again. 2) install GRUB on the master sda?
[22:26] <k1l> sashaxxx: the best is to let the OS you boot more often handle grub. so 1) if its ubuntu, 2) if its the debian
[22:27] <sashaxxx> this was gparted situation: http://i.imgur.com/EnuIjYX.png
[22:27] <mjoelner> is this a crappy cpu AMD A10-8700 APU ?
[22:28] <sashaxxx> so... considering i am using mainly Ubuntu... should i chose CONTINUE WITHOUT BOOTLOADER from this installer now?
[22:29] <k1l> mjoelner: for hardware experience or benchmarks better ask ##hardware or #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:29] <k1l> sashaxxx: yes
[22:29] <sashaxxx> ok. thanks so much
[22:30] <sashaxxx> hope it's gonna work :)
[22:30] <Jordan_U> sashaxxx: Be sure you have a loveCD/USB on hand in case it doesn't and you need to fix things, but it probably will :)
[22:31] <sashaxxx> yea
[22:31] <Jordan_U> sashaxxx: Run "sudo update-grub" after installing Debian to get it added to Ubuntu's grub menu.
[22:31] <k1l> well, he just needs to boot ubuntu, run "sudo update-grub".
[22:31] <sashaxxx> thanks guys
[22:32] <sashaxxx> i stay connected and update you
[22:33] <Jordan_U> k1l: If at some point in their repartitioning they changed the partition number for Ubuntu's /boot/ then they'll get a grub rescue shell at the next boot, but gparted and d-i avoid renumbering existing partitions so it will probably be fine.
[22:35] <ManDrake13> Is there a non-reinstall way to get around the python3 error that I got when I upgraded from 14.04 to 15.10?
[22:36] <sashaxxx> ok
[22:36] <sashaxxx> at the moment debian is not present in boot loader choices
[22:37] <sashaxxx> i try to update the grub in a while
[22:37] <TheMarius> at the moment ubuntu is it for the average user, i just wish they had a rolling release version
[22:38] <sashaxxx> well... i am a almost-noob user :)
[22:38] <TheMarius> i used linux mint as my daily os 10 years ago then stopped because of bug regression + i had a period i gamed alot
[22:38] <mcphail> ManDrake13: did you go straight from 14.04 to 15.10? If so, that is unsupported and you have a broken system. Reinstall
[22:38] <TheMarius> now im back to linux (kubuntu)
[22:38] <sashaxxx> it looks like debian is added
[22:38] <sashaxxx> let's restart
[22:39] <ManDrake13> Thanks mcphail
[22:40] <sashaxxx> PERFECT - GOT IT!
[22:40] <sashaxxx> i would never made it up without your help guys

[22:44] <rhorse> Hi, how can I increase font size in tty terminal? I tried setfont but I get message that 'could not get a descriptor of terminal.' Is there an easy fix?
[22:48] <Bashing-om> rhorse: See: " # The resolution used on graphical terminal " in the config file /etc/default/grub . Maybe ?
[22:48] <zykotick9> rhorse: i'm not sure if it works the same in ubuntu, but you could try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup"
[22:49] <sebsebseb> hi
[22:49] <zykotick9> rhorse: if it's just a resolution issue, you might want to check out fbset
[22:49] <sebsebseb> oh zykotick9
[22:49] <zykotick9> sebsebseb: \o  long time
[22:49] <sebsebseb> zykotick9: yeah pm me :d
[22:50] <rhorse> sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
[22:52] <stacks88> so ive got a virtual machine created using virtualbox.. the vm's disk has grown to 93gb even after ive cleared the space inside the vm to 25gb.. so ive been told i can boot a live cd on the vm and use the zerofree command on /dev/sda1 to shrink the disk back closer to what its actually using. of course i have to power down the vm and run vboxmanage compact command against the virtual disk..
[22:52] <stacks88> but my question is, is there any chance that the zerofree command could cause any loss of data? pretty much why i havent done this stuff yet
[22:53] <bekks> stacks88: For zerofree support, contact Microsoft ;)
[22:53] <bekks> If used correctly, it will not cause loss of data.
[22:53] <stacks88> well i thought zerofree is a linux command
[22:53] <gde33> I was wondering, how are the default applications chosen for ubuntu?
[22:53] <stacks88> so its a microsoft product? zerofree - zero free blocks from ext2, ext3 and ext4 file-systems
[22:53] <bekks> Ah, I mixed that up. sdelete is that ;S thing.
[22:54] <roygbiv> how can one use zerfree incorrectly?
[22:54] <roygbiv> zerofree*
[22:54] <stacks88> roygbiv: ive never used it, so im just asking just to be sure
[22:54] <Lefty_> Im looking for help finding a driver for an audio interface.  Focusrite Scarlett 2i2
[22:54] <bekks> stacks88: Just take a backup before using it.
[22:55] <rhorse> zykotick9: thanks dpkg-reconfigure does the trick. :)
[22:55] <zykotick9> rhorse: glad to help.
[22:56] <rhorse> zykotick9: this is a brand new laptop. First trip through ubuntu, been a gentoo user last 10 years.
[22:57] <meem> rhorse: welcome
[22:58] <zykotick9> rhorse: good luck.  BIG change from gentoo...  /me used gentoo a million moons ago, took a week to compile xorg/gnome on a P3-450mhz ;)
[22:58] <rhorse> Thank you. I wasn't sure everything was going to work, it being a bleeding edge chipset. But everything does work. It's nice not having to compile and configure everything! :0
[22:59] <meem> rhorse: but sure your expert now with linux !
[22:59] <rhorse> meem: that's true. Gentoo is a great classroom
[23:09] <goddard> what is a game similar to starcraft that works on Linux
[23:09] <nicomachus> goddard: try #gamingonlinux
[23:10] <goddard> nicomachus: i dont want wine
[23:10] <kus> hi synaptic touchpad on a gigabyte notebook computer... is it already documented or is it ok to report? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection
[23:10] <goddard> just want a game made for linux that is like star craft
[23:10] <nicomachus> it's not playonlinux, it's gaming on linux.
[23:10] <nicomachus> goddard: it's not wine gaming. it's the sub in which your question would be topic. because it's not here.
[23:11] <nicomachus> topical*
[23:14] <eelstrebor> can someone tell me why hplip*.run can't install the driver because of dnsmasq running while the tarball can be installed? hplip*.run is saying that dnsmasq is a package manager - ???
[23:16] <nacc> eelstrebor: you would need to give a lot more context than that?
[23:16] <reisio> eelstrebor: I can tell you that you don't want to be running that file
[23:16] <eelstrebor> which file?
[23:16] <reisio> hplip*.run
[23:17] <eelstrebor> what's wrong with running that file?
[23:17] <reisio> hplip is in the standard repos
[23:17] <reisio> most things are
[23:18] <reisio> the rare things that aren't, you arguably still wouldn't want to run a .run for
[23:18] <zykotick9> reisio: +1
[23:18] <reisio> zykotick9++
[23:18] <eelstrebor> it's an old version in the repos
[23:25] <eelstrebor> hmm, there's a ppa for linux-mint but i don't see one for ubuntu
[23:25] <reisio> eelstrebor: you need a specific version of hplip? Which? Why?
[23:26] <nacc> eelstrebor: well, you're not running something actually supported by ubuntu, but if you want to pastebin the full output and what command you ran, you're more likely to get help
[23:26] <reisio> a random crappy binary for any Debian distro will "work" for any other
[23:26] <kus> how do I add multiple attachments in launchpad?
[23:26] <nacc> kus: one at a time
[23:26] <eelstrebor> even though i installed hplip from the repository it's not offered as an option for printing
[23:26] <kus> nacc, so I'd add more attachments after opening the bug?
[23:26] <reisio> eelstrebor: hp-setup
[23:27] <nacc> kus: that's what i've tended to do, it seems to only let you add one attachment during filing
[23:27] <reisio> or just go to the cups webUI and set it up
[23:27] <kus> thanks nacc I thought it was pebkac
[23:31] <eelstrebor> reisio, by golly you're right - thanks
[23:31] <linuxuz3r_> ubuntu xx when?
[23:32] <kus> please take a look at my bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1563588
[23:32] <coffeeguy> hi i switched from nvidia drivers to Xorg in 16.04 and ubuntu now won't load up
[23:32] <reisio> eelstrebor: nps
[23:32] <reisio> coffeeguy: switch back?
[23:32] <coffeeguy> how?
[23:33] <nacc> linuxuz3r_: was that a question?
[23:33] <eelstrebor> nacc, i had assumed that others had encountered my problem - if need be i would have pastebin what happened - pretty strage that hplip*run was saying that dnsmasq was a package manager - stopping dnsmasq allowed the software to continue
[23:33] <linuxuz3r_> nacc yes
[23:33] <nacc> linuxuz3r_: can you please rephrase? it's not clear to me what you're asking
[23:34] <nacc> eelstrebor: it's generally better to not assume that, and to provide more info to the channel (in my observation of those that get help)
[23:34] <k1l> coffeeguy: #ubuntu+1 for unstable releases
[23:34] <linuxuz3r_> when is ubuntu xx going to be released
[23:34] <coffeeguy> ok k1l
[23:34] <nacc> linuxuz3r_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseSchedule
[23:34] <k1l> linuxuz3r_: end of april
[23:35] <zykotick9> linuxuz3r_: are you aware ubuntu version numbers are the release year/month?  just checkin'
[23:36] <linuxuz3r_> no
[23:36] <linuxuz3r_> zykotick9, no
[23:37] <stacks88> i ran zerofree /dev/sda1 but i didnt run -v for verbose. its seemingly taking so far 6 mins and still going. im anxious to know whats giong on and regret not running it with -v -- can i ctrl+c this zerofree process and it wont screw anything up ? so i can re-run it but with -v this time
[23:37] <zykotick9> 16.04 means 2016, 4th month.
[23:37] <roygbiv> stacks88, zerofree is just zeroing out the unused space on your disk. you can kill it, sure, or let it run. it doesn’t touch allocated blocks
[23:39] <roygbiv> if you had data on blocks not marked as allocated, your problems are much much larger than zerofree overwriting those blocks with zeroes ;)
[23:39] <reisio> stacks88: don't cross post

[23:54] <Maratus> Anyone know how to run an application without a border without making it fullscreen?
[23:54] <reisio> naamik: he's got output from 'date', probably, in his PS1 var: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-tip-prompt/
[23:54] <roygbiv> naamik, that’s a configuration option in your shell’s prompt setup
[23:54] <reisio> Maratus: some window manager's have that as an option in the specific window options
[23:55] <reisio> Maratus: frequently the top bar decoration at left-most, instead of with those at right
[23:55] <k1l> naamik: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizingBashPrompt
[23:55] <k1l> naamik: and "man bash" should have a list to what variable includes the time
[23:55] <Maratus> reisio: Thanks, I'll go to XFCE's channel then, I wasn't sure if it was a WM specific question.
[23:56] <k1l> naamik: something like \t or \T
[23:56] <reisio> "Xfce"
