[00:27] Beladona: there is no 15 LTS version [00:27] Algum br ? [00:27] k1l, there is alpha [00:27] Beladona: 14.04 is the latest LTS. the next one will be 16.04 LTS. [00:28] !br | devfulano [00:28] devfulano: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para entrar no canal por favor faça "/join #ubuntu-br " sem as aspas. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, use #ubuntu-pt. Obrigada. [00:28] k1l, there is alpha, stable will be in april [00:28] k1l, oh ok [00:28] Beladona: i know. you said "15 LTS" [00:28] k1l, so16 lts [00:28] Beladona: Best to await the .1 release of 16.04 and do the LTS-LTS upgrade . [00:28] Bashing-om, I did lts to lts upgrade a few days a go. I forgot commands [00:29] Beladona: its always yearyear.monthmonth. so "16 lts" is not correct name [00:29] Beladona: One needs to go through the EOL process as 15.04 is in that category . [00:30] Beladona: what output do you get from "lsb_release -d"? [00:30] k1l, when i say 16. it means 16.x [00:30] Beladona: there are 2 ubuntu releases each year. so please be more precise. [00:30] Beladona: 16.04 or 16.10? [00:30] k1l, Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS [00:31] xangua, if its 16.x lts, iam ok [00:31] even beta [00:31] Beladona: #ubuntu+1 for the alpha/beta ubuntus [00:31] its just a matter of one month when it will be stable. I want to setup now [00:31] k1l, ok [00:36] How can I see the list of last failed login attemps [00:36] or --- how can I read/parse btmp files [00:37] Mia: auth.log in /var/log [00:42] lastb command shows failed login attemps but there are MANY in my server [00:43] how can I limit this to display only a few [00:45] Hi, everyone. I just was messing around with the usermod command and now my password doesn't work. Yea, I know. Is there a way to reset it or start a new user and start over. This is a brand new install. [00:45] page it to less, Mia [00:45] whatevercommand | less [00:45] how Fuchs [00:45] oh okay [00:45] thanks [00:45] then you can scroll with up/down/pgup/pgdown/space, and search with / [00:45] q quits it [00:45] you're welcome [00:46] when I do lastb | less I see many entries [00:46] rhorse: I guess you could try the recovery mode from Grub the boot loader, then go into the root terminal [00:46] rhorse: passwd username [00:46] does this mean someone is trying to bruteforce my server password [00:46] rhorse: that normally works to re set forgototn passwords, so I guess could work for what you did to [00:47] rhorse: what command exactly? maybe you deleted the user from all the groups? [00:47] sebsebseb: OK, lemme try that [00:48] k1l: usermod username -p password === krc4267|sleep is now known as krc4267_ [00:48] Mia: hard to say from here. In general I recommend putting ssh on a non-standard port, not allowing root login and best only allow login via keys, not password [00:49] sebsebseb: thanks your officially a great guy. === Waka is now known as Norki [00:49] rhorse: that worked? [00:49] i'm interested in a f.lux alternative without a ppa, to disable the 'blue' light in monitors to preserve the health of eyes, any hints? [00:49] yes [00:49] rhorse: ok good :) [00:50] :) [00:50] Fuchs, I see - how can I change my password based login system to key based ? [00:50] Ok so I have Ubuntu on a small partition of an external HDD with some permanence. Used it a bit a while ago...and then all of a sudden it has no more disk space in home and such and can't do stuff. [00:50] Mia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys is a good ressource on that [00:51] Mia: make sure to read it carefully and not disable password login until you tested whether the keys work as expected [00:51] Norki: ok how big was your your / root [00:51] rhorse: the usermod -p doesnt work with plaintext. so better use passwd when you want to change a password [00:51] So what exactly happened and/or where do I look for stuff to dl. [00:51] Norki: I also assume you did't have a sperate /holme so [00:51] The partition was set as 7GB but it seems it only shows 2.2 GB. All used. [00:51] Norki: yes that's not much for Ubuntu [00:51] It wasn't before. Used Transmition for a while. [00:52] Norki: or any other Linux distro for that matter these days [00:52] And then all of a sudden couldnt anymore cause no space/mem whatever. [00:52] Norki: espeically if you got /home as part of it which you will do by default, and then your putting phtos and music and whatever in there big files [00:52] Fuchs, do I have to carry my key file with me all the time [00:52] Norki: clean your system overall with bleachbit, purge unwanted packages, clean browsers cache,.. [00:52] I use my username/password based login a lot [00:52] Mmm...I see, Iguess I fucked up since idk what kind of files it has to keep updating. [00:52] like everywhere [00:52] I have no music files/etc there. [00:52] That's the thing. [00:52] /help [00:52] Norki: yeah, but any updates the packags will go in root to [00:53] I didnt store anything on it, it just stop existing. [00:53] Right, sucks lol... [00:53] Will try that bleachbit thing, whatsit? [00:53] Norki: you could in a way try what lotuspsychje suggested but really you just need to try and re size the partion if you got space [00:53] Norki: I don't think you need Bleachbit [00:53] Mk. [00:53] Sec,trying stuff. [00:53] Norki: it's a bit like a Windows rubbish cleaing program but for Linux [00:53] Mia: yes [00:53] Norki: it's a new install? [00:54] Yeah well I wouldnt even be able to install it haha. [00:54] Mia: or use the host that has it for in-between [00:54] Norki: well yeah indeed if your on 100% [00:54] No, old, I just wanted to clear enough mem to do some stuff here before resetting the whole thing. [00:54] Fuchs, what do you mean [00:54] sebsebseb: i never got any issues with it, and cleaned multiple gigs on rather fresh installs with it [00:54] Browser cache... [00:54] Think I tried that and it didn't work... [00:54] Norki: re install and make the partition bigger next time, or use a Live CD and try and make the one you got bigger, but you'll need unpartiitoned space on your hard disk to be able to re size it [00:55] Norki: be that space that happens to be there since whatever, or that you take from Windows or whatever [00:55] Norki: also having a seperate /home can be uesful :) [00:55] Mia: what I wrote. But in general: yes, you then need your key along [00:56] I experimented with a lot of stuff...This is not something I am actively using, just part of an experiment, etc. [00:56] Norki: ok so no big deal if you remove that install, and start over then? [00:56] Want to save some stuff from here tho, but i need Mem for that. [00:56] Norki: what kind of stuff? [00:56] I.e. got to clear some space now if I can. [00:56] I can't even Prnt Screen because of it lol. [00:56] Norki: yes you want an Ubuntu Live Media (or actaully for any distro really a Live Media ) [00:57] But yeah next time will do something else... [00:57] Norki: then you can access your partiotn and do things with it from that [00:57] I did this one long ago. [00:57] Then I installed Ubuntu on a comp too with a partition that was larger but still not enough. [00:57] I.e. I only found out later I need more space haha. [00:57] Will do live ones or diff distros next if I still use this partition. [00:57] Norki: Live Media can take data off it the partition, but also re size if there's space to use to re size it with [00:57] Norki: purge the bigger packages, use the lightweight alternatives to save room also [00:58] How do I stop "aptitude -y upgrade" from prompting me about restarting the quagga daemon? [00:58] I just want to clear space now. Where is clearing browser? Not in Mozilla it seems. [00:58] Norki: just remember to take anything off using the Live MEdia onto an external hard disk or something, since Live Media's only boot up into RAM, and anything you do will later be gone after that [00:58] Ik, but ty. [00:58] I love live modes because they are like deep freeze. Got some on sticks. [00:59] Norki: right so boot one up, and then do stuff with your partiton that you watn to do and :) [00:59] Norki: wich ubuntu version did you have? [00:59] I did this long ago so its no longer supported. [00:59] WOAH [00:59] Space just cleared out of nowhere... [00:59] Must be automated... [00:59] Just 90 MB but should do lol. [00:59] Norki: in your install you can probably remove somting a purge though or something like lotuspsychje suggested [01:00] Will look into it...which folder? === EOIP is now known as crocodilehunter [01:00] in Linux land that's called a directory :} [01:01] Heh... [01:01] I see some stuff in tmp too [01:01] Can I just delete all of them? [01:01] Just some debconf. [01:01] Norki: you can also use the disk analyzer icon, to see the biggest usage [01:02] Norki: and if your on a unsupported version your meant to upgrade it really to a supported one :d [01:02] Used it when I logged in, but it shows weird numbers cause its part of an external HDD [01:02] !eol [01:02] End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information.

[01:03] Norki: its like a pie icon [01:03] Yeah I mean thats where I got it from. Started it when I booted just now [01:04] Can probably work something out, brb..

[01:34] l4m8d4: yes, sudo do-release-upgrade -d [01:34] Because my laptop is skylake and has weird problems that I suspect, are due to the 4.2 kernel. Since 16.04 has kernel 4.4 I thought it could be worth a try [01:35] i am only securing apps that access the net [01:35] l4m8d4: just keep in mind that 16.04 is still in development and things can still break in this stage [01:35] thats it [01:35] EriC^^: Ok. Thanks! [01:35] l4m8d4: np === JanC_ is now known as JanC [01:35] lotuspsychje: Yep, I have that in mind.

Join #ubuntu-discuss, for other non-support discussion not Ubuntu related you can also join #ubuntu-offtopic. Thank you. [01:39] lotuspsychje: Wow, that's older than debian oldstable. [01:40] l4m8d4: i would rather suggest you upgrade on final, or clean install 16.04 beta2/daily now and upgrade on final [01:41] lotuspsychje: The thing is, it would take a lot of work to do a clean reinstall. The only thing that I worry about right now is the oibaf repo. It may break on 16.04, right? [01:42] l4m8d4: external repos arent supported here, so be carefull when upgrade in this stage [01:43] l4m8d4: maybe try the most official way, wait until 16.04 is final, disable your ppa and upgrade from 15.10? [01:44] lotuspsychje: Well, the problem is, my new laptop is a skylake system, and skylake isn't even supported on 15.10 if I remember correctly [01:44] l4m8d4: Has not the oibaf been turned over to https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa ?? [01:45] l4m8d4: few weeks from now, final comes out [01:46] l4m8d4: Wait that is the mamarley PPA that has turned, I think . [01:46] lotuspsychje: When final is out, will there be a way to bring 15.10 repos over to 16.04? [01:46] So I could keep them maybe [01:46] l4m8d4: once you have upgraded that's it [01:47] l4m8d4: you got the 16.04 repos [01:47] sebsebseb: Sorry, I mean third party repos like the oibaf graphics drivers for example [01:48] l4m8d4: you shoudn't use 3rd party repos really, only stuff supported by Ubuntu or someone trusted for a ppa maybe [01:48] l4m8d4: if you mean your external ppa's, save the link into a txt, and add it back after upgrade/clean install [01:50] sebsebseb: Saying I shouldn't use external repos on this machine is probably like saying I shouldn't use ubuntu (below 16.04) on the machine [01:50] l4m8d4: well extenral ones aren't supported, so you got to trust that [01:50] l4m8d4: offical repos havve proper testing [01:56] l4m8d4: another reason to try 16.04 clean, to see if your grapics gets proper support out of the box...without adding ppa [01:57] lotuspsychje: Or I could just disable the ppa before upgrading [01:58] l4m8d4: why do you keep focussing on that ppa? [01:58] lotuspsychje: I bought the laptop with this ppa preinstalled, I don't know what works if I disable it [01:59] l4m8d4: i hope not from a store? for what graphics card is this? [02:00] lotuspsychje: What do you mean, you hope not from a store? It is the integrated graphics from a intel i5-6200u processor [02:00] l4m8d4: you say the laptop you bought has the ppa preinstalled [02:00] Hello [02:01] l4m8d4: ok lets try from the start...whats your ppa for exactly? [02:02] I am doing a presentation entitled "Security in the Mobile Environment".Do you guys have any tips or interesting topics you reccommend? [02:04] lotuspsychje: I bought the laptop from a german manufacturer for linux laptops. As a part of their standard install procedure for ubuntu 15.10 on skylake systems, they add the oibaf graphics drivers ppa. [02:04] l4m8d4: can you link me to that store in #ubuntu-discuss please? [02:04] It is this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers [02:05] hi, [02:05] How can I set ubuntu default brightness screen?

[02:08] !touch | rgb-one [02:08] rgb-one: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch . Support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [02:08] word [02:09] l4m8d4: Most likely that ppa was needed for a fix / improvement that was made in a version of the driver newer than the one shipped in 15.10, but those improvements / fixes are most likely already included in the version that will be released with Ubuntu 16.04. === KindOne_ is now known as KindOne [02:15] l4m8d4: I would recommend trying an Ubuntu 16.04 liveUSB session before upgrading, and if that works fine and seems to be using around the same amount power or less as your existing install, then you should be fine using 16.04 without any extra ppa. You have two options I can see for doing so... [02:20] Jordan_U, lotuspsychje : Ok, I think my easiest route is to wait for final, do a snapshot, upgrade with disabled ppas, leave the ppas disabled, and just fallback to my old snapshots in case of problems. Thanks to you both [02:20] l4m8d4: Either install 16.04 from scratch (when it has been released). You can even keep your existing /home/ (even if it's not on a separate partition). Or you can use ppa-purge (which does more than just disable the ppa, it also reverts the packages back to their Ubuntu versions) before upgrading. To be extra cautious, you could try a *15.10* live system before doing the ppa purge to confirm that after [02:20] the ppa-purge Ubuntu will just be getting slightly worse battery life, but will be fine for the duration of the upgrade after which battery life should be restored in 16.04. [02:21] Good lord. #ubuntu has grown just a bit since 6.06 [02:22] l4m8d4: *just* disabling the ppa, without ppa-purgeing, is a bad idea, and could prevent you from getting security and other updates for those packages, and possibly break upgrading. [02:22] Marfi: correct, we recommend you try it again :p [02:23] lotuspsychje: I have it installed, don't worry. I'm an oldie to Ubuntu. :P [02:24] Jordan_U: Okay, in that case I'll be purging the ppa, too. Also, I'm looking into getting a live image for 16.04 going for testing. Thanks!

[02:55] heya, I probably have a severe case of the dumb - I installed ubuntu server 16.04 daily. The installer detected my (wireless) network card, and successfully setup a connection. The installed system though appears to detect the card, but not connect to any network [02:56] is additional config beyond what was done in the installer necessary?

Or do you want to digitally filter out the clicking sounds by software?

[03:47] Abe_: :( [03:48] thebrandon: possibly more of a #networking thing [03:49] R13ose: I don't know what's picking up the noise, or why it is picking it up. soundcard? or really the microphone. don't they have an alsa equalizer in unity idk where you can play with the input sound ?

Right now I have Kodibuntu running and would like to install Kali Linux. [04:08] JackJack: yes, but neither of those are supported here so you'll need to follow generic dual boot instructions [04:09] awesome. just google them up or are they on reddit somewhere. [04:11] JackJack: this might help, but you wil need to research more on Kali dual boot yourself https://www.quora.com/How-do-I-install-Kali-Linux-on-Ubuntu-and-Dual-Boot [04:12] many thanks. much appriciated. :) [04:13] R13ose: I am sorry i was hoping you could at least reduce the noise. well go to forum they might help you better there [04:14] you could remove pavucontrol also if you don't have a use for it. it was at least worth a try [04:18] there is also the alsamixer if you type alsamixer into terminal. it looks complicated but you might give it also a try. you just need to figure out the controls in there :D [04:19] R13ose: nope are just arrow keys, should be easy.

[07:51] hateball: that worked! thank you [07:51] 'service restart gdm' [07:51] Mac_Vee1: ubuntu updates will get you all latest packages on your system [07:52] I want to use the latest propritary NVIDIA driver with my GTX 980 GPU. Should I just down the the .run that NVIDIA has on their website and install it? [07:52] two intel related items in software "Intel Graphics drivers wiley" in other software, and Unknown: Unknown in additional drivers [07:52] Mac_Vee1: so the best approach is to choose the best driver for your system [07:52] Mac_Vee1: You can use this PPA https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa at your own risk (I use it, works great) [07:53] bobdobbs`: :) [07:53] hateball: does that PPA account for various GTX GPU performance difference? [07:53] there are a lot of different levels of GTX cards. [07:53] Mac_Vee1: I'm not sure I understand your question. It's just the official driver, packaged neatly [07:54] hello, how to permanently remove a program on ubuntu, with all its dependencies and libraries? [07:54] ok, so NVIDIA only makes one single Linux driver then? [07:54] Mac_Vee1: Yes [07:54] Diamondcite: normally sudo apt-get pyrge package will also remove dependecies [07:54] Mac_Vee1: The exception being that some older gen cards are not supported after 340.xx [07:54] I've found apt-get --purge remove program_name but I'm not sure if it's what I need .. [07:54] *purge [07:54] Sorry let me ask the question differently. I always wondered about this. With Windows it is very important to have the correct NVIDIA driver for the GPU model. [07:55] lotuspsychje, without two dashes ? [07:55] but I understand the default Nvidia driver is meant to work with all NVIDIA GPU models. [07:55] DiamondSword: sudo apt-get purge package should work [07:55] Are you sure there are not different NVIDIA Proprietary (LINUX) GPU drivers though? [07:56] certainly makes it much easier than dealing with a bunch of different drivers versions. ;-) [07:56] Mac_Vee1: can you tell us wich driver you have active right now? [07:56] lotuspsychje, thank you ~ [07:57] I think this is a good question though because NVIDIA even has special versions of drivers for Quadro Professional models. [07:57] one for general use [07:57] and one for certain CAD packages for example. [07:57] but that is with Windows of course. [07:57] all my windows open up just a little bit too high on my screen everytime with everywindow xD. [07:57] how can I change this? , is there a compiz setting im not aware off? [07:57] Actually I am setting up a new Ubuntu install [07:58] Have not swapped out the default driver for the NVIDIA one. [07:58] but I need full graphic access for some things like OpenCL [07:58] and CUDA [07:58] Mac_Veel , tried swapping on linux xD. my experience is you could break your gui xd. which in terms made me delete a xorg config file [07:58] it seems the NVIDIA driver is the only option. [08:00] well I have a backup ;P [08:00] hope I don't break anything [08:00] have used the NVIDIA propitiatory drivers in the past and they worked great. [08:01] Mac_Vee1: Yes you need proprietary driver for CUDA, but you should be fine using the PPA and then installing cuda from nvidia [08:03] hateball: thanks for the help! I am going to give this PPA a shot ;-) [08:03] have a nice night gents [08:04] and ladies too [08:04] Mac_Vee1: note that if you game, the later drivers have some quirks [08:04] ah... [08:04] does the PPA automatically update my system to the latest NVIDIA driver? [08:04] once I add the PPA I mean? [08:05] Mac_Vee1: check this https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/44zqau/nvidia_36128_and_glvnd_with_steam_games/ [08:05] Mac_Vee1: no, you'll need to apt-get install nvidia-364 for instance. and if a newer version comes, apt-get install nvidia-XXX and so on === EOIP is now known as crocodilehunter [08:06] Mac_Vee1: Read the information on the PPA, it notes which are stable and which are beta etc [08:07] lotuspsychje: previous kernerl didn't do anything but rebooting the printer somehow worked ... [08:07] !yay | Lauxley [08:07] Lauxley: Glad you made it! :-) [08:08] sad thing is the resolution is so bad it's unusable [08:08] so what exactly is the main purpose of the PPA then?

[12:08] MonkeyDust: so... what's your idea ? === me is now known as Guest90969 [12:10] hi all [12:17] sobersabre is this useful http://askubuntu.com/questions/2631/access-server-by-host-name [12:22] Hi folks [12:25] Can anyone help me with a fakeRAID setup and dual booting Windows 10? I've already setup a RAID 0 through my BIOS and installed Windows 10, but when I run the Ubuntu install I don't see one large disk, I see it all split up as /dev/mapper//part. How come fakeRAID isn't supported or detected? [12:26] because fake raid is a joke [12:26] Also I understand the RAID risks, I am using RAID 0 for performance as I had two 1 tb drives lying around. [12:26] and depends on OS drivers, normally windows to work [12:26] I would get a hardware controller but they are expensive :( [12:27] why is it a joke? should I not do it? [12:27] I read about (and can see) a nice performance bump [12:27] because it's a toy thats not really raid [12:27] it's basically a software raid stack thats put into the OS so depends on drivers [12:27] so there are no linux drivers? [12:27] so how well your drivers work/are supported depends on your raid availability [12:28] because the people who make them don't make linux drivers normally [12:28] I see, so I would have to check my mobos drivers for a linux raid driver (which prob doesn't exist) [12:28] I suspect if it's not in the kernel - it's not worth discussing [12:28] as if it's not in the kernel you'll need to maintain your initrd too [12:28] I saw that I could use mdadm [12:28] as your OS needs to be able to see the disks before it boots [12:29] mdadm won't work for windows [12:29] I don't care about Windows, I care about linux booting. I just want them to share the RAID or that's just not how this works [12:29] and you can't boot from raid0 - you'll need a physical partition or raid1 partition to boot from [12:29] you're not going to be able to share the raid [12:29] wow that really sucks [12:29] not really [12:30] You can't share a RAID under any circumstances? [12:30] like if I got a hardware controller? [12:30] you can with a hardware controller [12:30] because then it doesn't depend on the OS to see the disk and build the raid [12:30] do you know of any inexpensive ones :) ? [12:31] thinking about mdad thags [12:32] does anyone knows if there will be a flash update for chromium 32bit on linux now that chrome support has ended??thanks [12:32] ziz15: I doubt there will be [12:32] beastwick987: have a look online [12:32] and define in expensive [12:33] not like $100 [12:33] ziz15: 32bit chromium doesnt use the chrome flash [12:34] you'll struggle for less than %100 - check evay [12:34] ebay [12:36] ziz15 i guess pepperflash is what you want, find it in the repos https://wiki.debian.org/PepperFlashPlayer [12:36] whats mdctl [12:38] metadata raid controller command [12:38] not sure if it's still valid or a symlink to mdadm these days [12:39] ok, ikonia [12:41] <_Sergio_> Hello === dave4925_ is now known as Illumitardi === francisco is now known as Guest87927 [12:57] anyone else on 14.04 get issues with running apt-get update ?

[13:00] ikonia I think you can install Windows and Linux in a fakeRAID [13:00] at least I am reading some stuff that says it is possible [13:00] MonkeyDust, yes [13:01] hi [13:01] interestingly enough i'll tell you what I did tho so far [13:01] I setup my fakeraid and installed windows [13:01] jnoob22 ok, so the question sound ppa related, not 14.04 related [13:01] i'm deeply confused by the service scripts on ubuntu [13:01] I then installed Ubuntu inside VirtualBox using my native disk as storage, (not a VDI) [13:01] when I boot the Ubuntu installer [13:01] MonkeyDust, perhaps but I like to give my version as well. [13:01] so granted I should not use init.d it says [13:01] I see the entries for the Linux parts [13:01] jnoob22 version of what [13:02] I am wondering if I run mdadm and rebuild the array, maybe it will work? [13:02] so I then use $ service cron status [13:02] MonkeyDust, nm dont worry about it. [13:02] to check my cron is up, the service script returns instructions that I should not use init.d [13:02] well I'm not [13:02] but that won't help me right, because mdadm needs to be loaded before the OS, but there won't be a way to boot [13:02] for anyone that may be interested... these had an issue with their ip address for some reason ... http://dpaste.com/3R5G8WC [13:03] hi [13:04] MonkeyDust: it's a rabbit whole. eventually I did read the fine manual of avahi-daemon.conf and configured it properly. [13:05] cron is listed as a service under $ services --status-all [13:06] hi [13:06] hey [13:06] how are you === james is now known as Guest9514 [13:06] hi [13:07] yet... if I do... services cron status , I get "unknown job: cron" [13:07] what?

[13:21] I see.... [13:21] one PPA package is trying to handle stuff that another (ppa)package already handles. so you got a bunch of bad PPAs there [13:21] hum... [13:21] is it possible to solve? [13:22] Welastevil: file bug against those bad packages so the PPA maintainer gets its stuff right. [13:22] in the meantime remove the PPAs with ppa-purge to use the official ubuntu packages, that dont have that wrong depencies. [13:22] sorry my ingorance.. but how to do that? [13:23] Welastevil: or (very dirty) force the install of that pacakge manually [13:24] hi all. is it necessary to have port 25 accept incoming connections for postfix to just send mail? (x-posted to #postfix) [13:25] Welastevil: do which method? [13:25] Hi to all guys! I've a question for you, There are two bugs, one of the ALSA drivers, missing a module for an audio codec and the corresponding module to make it work with the intel sst cherry trail. The other bug inquiries concerning the touchpad, is recognized as a mouse and do not go clicking and scrolling with two fingers. I opened two reports on launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1563229 [13:25] Launchpad bug 1563229 in linux (Ubuntu Xenial) "Touchpad recognised as mouse FTE1000" [Medium,Triaged] [13:25] I tryed ppa [13:25] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1563110 in a comment, in the reporting of the touchpad, it was written that the problem is related to the upstream kernel, then create a bug report for kernel.org. Now I did not understand how to do a bug report in kernel.org, in particular, I did not understand the part 5: [13:25] Launchpad bug 1563110 in linux (Ubuntu) "No sound on Asus e200ha, intel sst with cx2072x codec" [Medium,Confirmed] [13:25] but I dont have it installed...and can not install due to that issue [13:25] beastwick987: I didn't say you can't do it [13:25] Welastevil: your ppas brought you into that issue. dont spam your system with ppas. [13:26] beastwick987: I said it depends if linux will support your card [13:26] and the performance/stability of it will depend on the driver support you have for that fakeraid controller [13:26] ok [13:26] so...what exactly to do at first? [13:26] Welastevil: you could run "sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/libelementary_201603242216-12490~ubuntu14.04.1_amd64.deb" that will force the package to install. [13:27] Welastevil: but in the long term you should really go through your PPAs and rething if you really want to keep them and use ppa-purge to get rid of them then. [13:27] Welastevil: Maybe wait a day or two. What I see is, that libefl has bin updated yesterday. Just install enlightenment without elementary. Elementary is 'just' the terminal application for enlightenment. You can use the window manager without it. [13:28] thanks so much guys! [13:29] )))) [13:29] In this channel, usually I get nice adivices! diferently from #maosx [13:29] Hi all.

[13:31] MonkeyDust: i'd like to include a time delta in my PS1 and i would do that by simply comparing two time stamps of which one would come from PROMPT_COMMAND. However if i take both timestamps there the ammount of time i've waited between two consecutive commands is added to my time delta aswell [13:31] daedric: bash, sorry i didn't mention that [13:31] is that rather a question for #bash?

[14:19] jair: the PPA you are using is rubbish [14:20] jair disable this http://ppa.launchpad.net/enlightenment-git/ppa/ubuntu/ [14:21] k1l: to be honest this is just the standard on this OS [14:21] jair: no. [14:21] MonkeyDust: alright [14:21] jair what's the ouput of cat /etc/issue [14:21] jair: What version of ubuntu is it? [14:21] one second [14:21] MonkeyDust: That won't tell anything about his flavour/desktop [14:22] jair: the enlightenment PPA you are using ships a package now that has broken depencies. or more in fact is trying to handle stuff that belongs to another package. [14:22] here: http://paste.debian.net/422762/ [14:22] jair: you can force to install that package and overwrite the stuff from the original packge [14:22] I tried as you can see on the previous paste [14:23] disable the ppa I guess? [14:23] but then I need to run some kind of clean command? [14:23] jair: no, forcing like in using dpkg to do it. which is a dirty workaround [14:23] What version of Ubuntu is this? [14:23] aq2 he just showed [14:24] he did? [14:24] aq2: its his enlightenement git nightly PPA that is doing that mess [14:24] that doesn't tell anything about his flavour [14:24] ok [14:24] aq2: what do you mean? it say everything: http://paste.debian.net/422762/ [14:24] that is the version of Ubuntu [14:25] aq2: flavor doesnt matter. its the PPA that is the issue [14:25] alright [14:25] so I should disable this ppa? [14:25] jair: "sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/libefl_201603292132-31957~ubuntu14.04.1_amd64.deb" [14:25] Right, i was just wondering if the ppa had came with a flavor [14:25] alright let me try [14:25] that is the dirty workaround if you want to keep that PPA. but you should tell them to get their stuff sorted asap [14:25] You don't need sudo because you're already root [14:26] OK [14:26] aq2: no, there is no flavor for that [14:27] alright. Looks like the installation got rid of the error, by the way I did not have to disable the ppa [14:28] jair: We had that same problem just some minutes ago in this channel. I would uninstall the elementary and libelementary package and use e17 without the elementary terminal. [14:29] here: paste.debian.net/422766/ [14:29] congradulations ubuntu [14:29] Microsoft just saved this community [14:29] someone should file a bug against their PPA and tell the maintainer [14:29] this is what happened following the instructions of k1l [14:30] minimec: paste.debian.net/422766/ [14:30] minimec: is this OK? [14:30] jair: as i said: itsa dirty workaround. but it "works" [14:30] k1l: Thank you very much looks like the error went away, but perhaps because we installed the local version [14:31] k1l: hahaha sure [14:31] but what is going on? how can I file the bug? or it is already filed? minimec ? [14:32] jair: I would 'sudo apt-get remove elementary libelementary'. That will probably be enough. The elementary terminal will be removed. You will have to use gnome-terminal or xterm instead.

Otherwise, file a bug. I stopped using these e17 ppa's for years now, because they were often buggy. I would recommend the bodhilinux repositories. But bodhilinux still uses e17, not e2* [14:34] minimec: well let's file the bug [14:34] minimec: I believe the solution will be to fix it on the repository [14:38] jair: with the enlightenment version you have installed now, I agee. [14:39] jair: I still use a very old version of e17. I stay on that one. ;) [14:42] minimec: I am not sure what is the package libefl for [14:42] minimec: but I will definitely prepare the bug summary [14:43] jair: libefl is one of the core libraries of enlightenment. https://www.enlightenment.org/ [14:44] is there a way to clean up crontab file like erase it to default file?

[15:13] MonkeyDust: I added: /etc/network/interfaces.d/ [15:14] scwizard better adress the channel, not me personally [15:14] erm under /etc/network/interfaces.d/eth0.conf I added: dns-search mydomain.com [15:14] and then I ran sudo resolvconf -u [15:14] but no change [15:18] ok what worked was [15:18] adding the dns search line to eth0.conf [15:18] then running: sudo ifdown --exclude=lo -a && sudo ifup --exclude=lo -a [15:18] then running: sudo resolvconf -u [15:19] hi guys i need some help.

Am I going to have those regularly from now on? [15:26] Hi everyone, is there a way (I guess there is, but is there a simple way) to delete all files in a folder which have the same name and size then files in another folder? Or, is there a way to mv files, but in a way that files are not overwritten if they exist and are of equal size, but deleted in the source and else, overwritten? [15:26] mistawright: i believe `pecl` is provided by the php-pear package, which is phpX specific. [15:27] reason is that I have a mv operation of a whole folder (instead of folder/*) where somehow inbetween the operation failed and so I there are some (or rather: 1) file which is incomplete in the target folder [15:27] Gamoder_ someone else had a similar question, just yeserday... or was it you ... i'll check the logs [15:27] I don't think it was me [15:27] nope, haven't even been here yesterday [15:28] Gamoder_: my two suggestions would be 1) rsync and 2) fslint (a gui to compare file sets) [15:28] I am headless [15:28] nacc, http://pastebin.com/XKsfUBRm where else would i be able to find a fix for this possibly [15:28] (I mean, the device is headless, it's an odroid) [15:28] Gamoder_: fdupes is a terminal program that does similar things...

But then again I have a project PC sitting here and it's FreeBSD that i need to get up and running first === ubuntu is now known as Guest46066 === Guest1832 is now known as Jaggro [20:35] Guest1832: the unix box has KDE loaded [20:35] ok I figured it out, had to chmod +x it [20:35] MonkeyDust: thank you for the link [20:36] Guest41038: Not sure if you'd want to run a server on Kubuntu if that's what youre doing [20:36] Optiprism: i'm still not clear on what you want to do, but my advice would be to get a .deb file, or just the source directly [20:36] Jaggro: it's FreeBSD 10 [20:37] I was trying to install qt 5.6 from the official qt website because I need a newer version because the newer version is only included in 16.04 and 16.04 refuses to load for me after a few days [20:38] Optiprism: do you have a link? [20:38] Guest41038: Don't really know much about FreeBSD, looks cool tho [20:39] http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/ [20:39] how would I go about disabling nouveau when installing ubuntu? [20:40] Jaggro: I managed to get it installed and on my network, but I'm having trouble moving files. The answer is out there somewhere, but I just haven't had time to chase it down [20:41] Optiprism: I'd try the offline installer for linux, or just try to get 16.04 to work. It will be released in less then a month, and its been very stable for me [20:43] what's the big deal, aren't .run files equivalent to .exe files? They are distributed the same way and appear to do the same thing [20:43] Optiprism: well, you can try to run it of course if you want, I have no idea what .run files do. Ubuntu uses .deb files [20:44] Optiprism: the problem is, that this is not windows [20:44] so at your own risk, you can make the .run file executalble (chmod u+x qt.run) and execute it [20:45] Optiprism: so ubuntu already provides a system to install programs. and you load now 3rd party stuff from the side. and since your system already uses qt, that might have sideeffects up to a non working desktop. [20:46] Optiprism: and most .run installers install not into a seperate folder, but into the system folders [20:48] Well if anything goes wrong I'll try paving over with 16.04 [20:49] Just got a server (14.04) installed, but I'm not sure how to set up the network so it sticks after a reboot. I put relevant info in /etc/network/interfaces, ran ifdown and ifup and I thought I was good.

[20:52] k1l_, Pretty much this: http://pastebin.com/jrx41fnA Like I said, I did an ifdown eth0 and an ifup eth0, and I was on the network.

[21:15] jinette: Sounds right, I used that command in android to do a copy. IDK if the partitions have to be the same size though. [21:16] jinette: create a partition sdb1 first, then use dd [21:16] oh right. [21:16] cause /sdb isn't a partition [21:16] llutz, but, as whatwhat also refers to, I thought the target drive would better be larger, no? [21:16] jinette: make sdb1 bigger then, resize the filesystem later [21:17] idk if it has to be identical or larger. not smaller! [21:17] i use high level tools like Gparted... so idk [21:18] llutz, whatwhat, thank you, I'll create a partition..if I'm not mistaken, I was here once hinted at that a larger target drive would be better [21:18] generally people upsize, yeah [21:18] idk how low level dd is tho [21:20] I have just a question occured to me..the partition to be copied is encrypted. is it ok to create the target partition encrypted, or will it hinder the copying? [21:21] or will the original partition be copied with its encryption, should I just create a partition with the same fs? [21:23] ah..nonsensical question, sorry [21:26] Has anyone had experience with a Syslinux "boot error" message when booting from an ubuntu live-usb?
