[00:05] <yray> hello there everyone
[00:06] <yray> I am trying to getsomething of a rule, like that group policy editor of windows, to from now on, do not allow connecting any new usb devices, and only allow the three usb devices that have been connceted to my ubuntu machine and NOTHING else, I also want to not lose access to my usb devices the next time i restart the sytem.
[00:06] <yray> any ideas?
[00:08] <yray> i read somehwre online, that i can use udev, but i really don't know how to use it
[00:09] <yray> am i muted??
[00:10] <TJ-> yray: it's a tall order, and would be very involved, but it is doable if you have a LOT of time to develop it.
[00:11] <yray> TJ- : my man, you mean it is not implemented for ubuntu as of yet?
[00:11] <yray> you mean not letting new usb devices getting connected to the machine is not available for ubuntu?
[00:12] <TJ-> yray: the system is designed to be user-friendly so it is designed to get things connected without drama
[00:13] <TJ-> yray: for what you describe you'd need to develop udev rules to implement an arbitrary security policy.
[00:13] <yray> I have no friends, neither does my laptop, and I am not looking to make any new friends.
[00:13] <TJ-> yray: try using a security-oriented distro
[00:13] <yray> TJ- : because of badusb
[00:13] <yray> can't I am already stuck with ubuntu on my laptop mate
[00:13] <yray> and I love it
[00:14] <yray> I mean ubuntu works way better with my lenovo laptop than any other distro
[00:14] <TJ-> yray: exactly: user-friendly
[00:14] <yray> most of other distros make life in the 3rd millenium so much harder
[00:15] <yray> TJ- : yes I know my man, user friendly, but I seriously can not go to sleep knowing that my box is not protected against badusb
[00:16] <TJ-> yray: well, good luck with it. If you do it, it sounds like a package that some ubuntu-server users may find interesting
[00:16] <yray> what do you mean?
[00:16] <TJ-> yray: if your need is strong enough, you'll write it... so share it :)
[00:17] <yray> i don't have enough knowledge about it
[00:17] <yray> :(
[00:17] <sssooouuulll> hallo community
[00:18] <l3h4> hello world
[00:18] <sssooouuulll> ich möchte mit windows 10 das ich in virtuelle maschine hab
[00:18] <sssooouuulll> zu meinem raspberry drauf per ssh bzw. mit rdp
[00:18] <Bashing-om> yggdrasil: Open source, if you have the want-to you will make the how-to .
[00:18] <sssooouuulll> mit ssh geht es schon also in den terminal komme ich schon aber nicht halt grafisch mit remotedesktopverbindung...
[00:19] <Blueking> anyone that can help me with networking question ?
[00:19] <Blueking> it's about routing
[00:19] <Bashing-om> !de | sssooouuulll
[00:19] <sssooouuulll> ok mach ich danke
[00:19] <TJ-> !ask | Blueking
[00:21] <Blueking> question are  if ip are 10.20.0.10   and gateway are 10.20.1.1     on eth0    then what would destination   be on same interface ?
[00:21] <TJ-> Blueking: that sounds like a CIDR of 10.20.0.0/16
[00:22] <TJ-> Blueking: something like "ip addr add 10.20.0.10/16 dev eth0; ip route add default dev eth0 via 10.20.1.1"
[00:23] <Blueking> TJ why mine ubuntu persist keep destination at 10.20.1.0 ?
[00:23] <TJ-> Blueking: what do you mean by 'destination' ?
[00:23] <Blueking> line 1: 0-
[00:23] <j1mc> has their been any kind of community pushback over the bash-on-windows deal?
[00:24] <j1mc> i haven't seen anyone say a word on planet ubuntu
[00:26] <Blueking> line 1: 0.0.0.0  10.20.1.1   0.0.0.0  UG 0   0   0  eth0, line 2   10.20.0.0  0.0.0.0    255.255.255.0  U 0 0 0 eth1, line 3  10.20.1.0   0.0.0.0  255.255.254.0  U 0 0 0 eth0
[00:27] <Blueking> what route -n shows
[00:28] <Blueking> TJ-
[00:30] <TJ-> Blueking: so you have 1 default route, and 2 specific routes (1 for each interface). Absolutely normal
[00:31] <Blueking> line 3, destination doesn't match 3 first numbers on routers ip addr ?
[00:31] <TJ-> Blueking: you actually have 2 /24 sub-nets, one for each interface
[00:32] <Blueking> TJ- bad ?
[00:32] <TJ-> Blueking: looks normal to me
[00:33] <Blueking> one nic for out on net and the other nic are for local net in my house
[00:33] <TJ-> Blueking: are both interfaces using DHCP?
[00:33] <Loshki> Why is one mask .255 and the other .254 ?
[00:33] <Blueking> isc-dhcp-server on eth1
[00:33] <TJ-> Loshki: because it's probably a /23
[00:34] <Blueking> just an example
[00:34] <Loshki> Ah, ok
[00:34] <Blueking> static ip given by isp  set on eth0
[00:34] <Blueking> not sure if I need dhclient on eth0 tho
[00:35] <Loshki> Blueking: if not dhclient, where does eth0 gets its ip address from?
[00:36] <Blueking> static in /etc/network/interfaces
[00:37] <Blueking> ordered static ip from ISP 3 days ago
[00:38] <Blueking> but when I hook ubuntu 'online' I only get destination host unreachable
[00:38] <Blueking> when ping 8.8.8.8
[00:40] <Blueking> TJ- and Loshki   not easy to debug networking stuff :/
[00:41] <Blueking> I want mine router back online :/
[00:42] <Loshki> no, not easy. Sorry I'm not better at this for you.
[00:44] <john38> Whats more stable 32 bit or 64 bit ubuntu
[00:45] <john38> if i install 14.04LTS can upgrade to 16.04 from update manager
[00:49] <Bashing-om> john38: 1) 4 Gig and > ram then 64 bit . 2) Not till the 16.04.1 release, else terminal will do it .
[00:49] <TJ-> Blueking: so use DHCP on the ISP interface
[00:49] <TJ-> Blueking: for a 'static' it just means they've configure their DHCP to allows give your account the same public IP
[00:55] <john38> Bashing-om, what version of ubuntu are you running and are having issues like computer freezes, internet browsers act haywire slow to react freezing manuevering around folders
[00:57] <Loshki> john38: at one time, there was a difference in stability between 32 and 64 bit, but no longer, I would say, so use 64 bit LTS with its improved performance, and don't worry about it.
[00:58] <Bashing-om> john38: Not a support question. But .. I run a core install of the 14.04 kernel. Rock solid absolutely no issues or problems .
[00:59] <phanes_> got  bad issue here, xubuntu fresh install will not talk to my router
[01:00] <phanes_> static ip of 0.10, router ip of 0.1
[01:00] <john38> Bashing-om, im on 12.04lts now and i get many freezes and slow to react processes, my update manager tells me to upgrade to 14.04LTS but im on 32bit and i want to switch to 64bit  im assuming 1404 will probably be able to upgrade to 16.04LTS 64bit with no problem
[01:01] <phanes_> ipv6 disabled
[01:01] <phanes_> default gw set to router ip
[01:02] <phanes_> pinging router from xubuntu gets me unreachable host  error
[01:02] <phanes_> all other devices working fine
[01:02] <Hydr0p0nX> what does arp -an show ?
[01:03] <Bashing-om> john38: How good is your hardware ? Good graphic's card . then yeah 14.04 64 bit clean fresh install. Good 'till April 20219 .
[01:03] <phanes_> netmask matches
[01:03] <FuriousGeorge> hi all
[01:03] <Hydr0p0nX> heya FuriousGeorge
[01:04] <phanes_> arp an gets me "? (192.168.0.1) at <incomplete> on enp6s0" hydro
[01:05] <FuriousGeorge> the tech at my server farm had to install the default version of my distro of choice cuz the canned modified version was not "autoinstalling" from the cpanel.   so i got lvm for / and /data  like from the factory.  now im worried ill lock myself out
[01:05] <Hydr0p0nX> phanes_ : ifconfig shows the interface is up  ?
[01:06] <FuriousGeorge> is there any way to back up this partition table so it can be restored to a mounted partition?
[01:06] <phanes_> hydro yes and dmesg confirms
[01:06] <FuriousGeorge> the pv and vg have a sdb to themselvcs\
[01:06] <phanes_> I just do not see an issue and this was working solid on fedora
[01:07] <TJ-> phanes_: the PC with the problem is not the one you're currently using for IRC I assume (which is using IPv6) ?
[01:07] <phanes_> I'm on my phone for irc
[01:07] <phanes_> through the modem
[01:07] <phanes_> that the pc won't talk to
[01:08] <TJ-> phanes_: OK. is the router configured to do DHCP for both IPv4 and IPv6 ?
[01:08] <TJ-> phanes_: I'm wondering if the router might be configured in the firewall to reject any IP addresses outside the DHCP ranges it issues (as a security measure)
[01:09] <phanes_> y yes it is but IPv6 is disabled on the PC
[01:09] <tux|dude> Ello
[01:09] <phanes_> TJ no it is not I've been using new IP addresses for a long time on this router with no changes
[01:09] <TJ-> phanes_: can other hosts on the same network ping the router using IPv4? if so, are they also statically configured, or using DHCP from the router?
[01:10] <phanes_> TJ yes I can ping it from every other device on the network they are all on ipv4 and they are all statically configured
[01:10] <TJ-> phanes_: have you tried a different Ethernet cable?
[01:10] <phanes_> TJ I was actually on the table with no changes or even touching the system I rebooted and installed xubuntu over a working Fedora that had been working for several years
[01:11] <TJ-> phanes_: always worth doing the simple checks first.
[01:11] <phanes_> TJ if we can get past trying to blame everything but those been to configuration I think we'll make a lot of progress here
[01:12] <phanes_> this is an Ubuntu issue
[01:12] <TJ-> phanes_: I'm giving you the steps I've learnt can catch even the most experienced people out, by making assumptions instead of checking
[01:14] <phanes_> same cable same router no change reinstalled operating system only
[01:14] <phanes_> PlayStation 4 settings confirmed to be identical
[01:14] <phanes_> phone settings confirms to be identical
[01:15] <phanes_> how do I disable the firewall and selinux
[01:15] <TJ-> phanes_: next I'd do "ethtool enp6s0" and check the link is active
[01:16] <phanes_> that command shows the link detected option says leak detected yes
[01:16] <phanes_> Lync no Lync
[01:16] <phanes_> God I hate this phone
[01:18] <phanes_> I know hours behind schedule on this project Ubuntu can't Network
[01:18] <TJ-> phanes_: right, so how about considering if the Ethernet interface requires firmware. If it did, you should see mention of it in the kernel's 'dmesg' log output. You can also check via the driver itself, by first doing "lspci -nnk" to identify the kernel driver name, and then with that name doing "modinfo -F firmware <module-name>" to see if the driver declares needing firmware. If it does, you can check that
[01:19] <TJ-> firmware file exists with "find /lib/firmware -name <firmware-file-name>" and then look in dmesg for reports from the driver about firmware loading
[01:19] <phanes_> here we are again blaming everything but the cause this PC has been in use in this place with this Hardware with no changes until 20 minutes ago
[01:19] <TJ-> phanes_: there are known issues with some ethernet chipsets/firmwares
[01:20] <Hydr0p0nX> yep, I have to recompile my network driver w/ each kernel change
[01:21] <phanes_> I do not have time for this kind of thing
[01:21] <TJ-> phanes_: if you want my help then engage in constructive diagnostics; otherwise solve it yourself
[01:21] <Hydr0p0nX> phanes_ : what network adapter are you using ?
[01:21] <phanes_> baby going back to Fedora or maybe stalling Debian might be the way to go here
[01:22] <phanes_> r8169
[01:22] <Hydr0p0nX> yea
[01:22] <Hydr0p0nX> that's one of the ones with issues
[01:22] <Hydr0p0nX> go download the driver from realtek, compile it
[01:22] <phanes_> it's not that it's not the card it's the software so I mean if it's a driver issue that's an Ubuntu issue other distros are not having this issue
[01:23] <phanes_> sorry autocorrect got me there I meant to say that there if there's an issue then it's going to be something specific to you too are they patching there drivers or something
[01:23] <phanes_> not you too I meant Ubuntu
[01:24] <Hydr0p0nX> now, do an lsmod |grep r8
[01:24] <Hydr0p0nX> is it loading r8168 or r8169 ?
[01:24] <phanes_> r8169
[01:25] <phanes_> it is loading the driver and the link is up
[01:25] <Hydr0p0nX> yea, but the driver has had enough stability issues that compiling from source has been a better option for me
[01:25] <phanes_> oh ffs
[01:25] <Hydr0p0nX> you can entertain the option or not, just telling you my personal, first hand experience, on multiple distros
[01:26] <Hydr0p0nX> google seems to agree
[01:26] <phanes_> not had this issue ever on this machine been in use for years
[01:26] <phanes_> and even reinstalled several other districts on this machine in the last 2 months
[01:26] <Hydr0p0nX> nobody is saying you have to stick with ubuntu
[01:26] <Hydr0p0nX> and it's probably fixed in a newer kernel
[01:27] <phanes_> this was a mistake
[01:27] <Hydr0p0nX> but, how are you going to get the newer kernel if you can't get on the network ?
[01:28] <phanes_> I have a shared mount with win 8.1
[01:29] <TJ-> bug 1547151
[01:29] <TJ-> Upstream problem in recent kernels
[01:29] <phanes_> wish it was my fedora still, could have copied the drivers over from the same dam kernel
[01:30] <TJ-> interestingly, a user affected says "...By the way, the bug happens only with GIGABIT NETWORKS and with MEGABIT CABLE"
[01:30] <TJ-> phanes_: does ethtool report the link up at Gigabit speeds? if so, a workaround may be to force it down to 100Mb/s
[01:32] <phanes_> what kernel packages do I need to download to local install from shared mount?
[01:33] <TJ-> phanes_: which xubuntu release is it, 15.10?
[01:34] <phanes_> linux-image-4.2.0-16-generic?  yes it's 15.10
[01:35] <phanes_> I will need fglrx later so I have to watch kernel version
[01:36] <phanes_> not radeon. not radeon.
[01:36] <Hydr0p0nX> phanes_, I'd suggest following the workaround to enable it @ 100Mb then let apt-get handle it
[01:36] <TJ-> phanes_: the bug specifically says the workaround command is "ethtool -s <IF> autoneg off speed 100 duplex full"
[01:37] <phanes_> I'll try that first
[01:37] <TJ-> realtek has been a pain for Linux for years, unfortunately
[01:37] <Hydr0p0nX> yep
[01:37] <phanes_> not really.
[01:38] <Hydr0p0nX> add it to /etc/rc.d/rc.local so that it's run on boot when you update kernels, comment it, see if you have network after reboot
[01:38] <phanes_> I suspect this is a result of downstream kernel patching
[01:38] <TJ-> I've got devices going back over 10 years that have that chipset and its a constant break/fix/break/fix as the rtl drivers change
[01:38] <Hydr0p0nX> phanes_, you do realize the ticket indicates it's UPstream, right?
[01:38] <phanes_> never had this issue
[01:39] <Hydr0p0nX> Every realtek chipset i've ever had has been a crapshoot
[01:45] <Hydr0p0nX> phanes_ : that command work ?
[01:45] <phanes_> ethtool enp6s0 autoneg off speed 100 duplex full
[01:45] <phanes_> does nothing
[01:46] <phanes_> ethtool enp6s0 then shows autoneg still on
[01:46] <steven_> hello, I am studying the LINUX. Nice to meet you
[01:46] <TJ-> phanes_: did you prefix it with 'sudo' ?
[01:47] <phanes_> I'm in a root shell
[01:48] <Hydr0p0nX> looks like you missed an -s
[01:48] <Hydr0p0nX> ethtool -s enp6s0 autoneg off speed 100 duplex full
[01:50] <phanes_> that changed the settings finally
[01:50] <sabotagebeats> how do i install .deb files
[01:50] <phanes_> however issue did not resolve
[01:50] <TJ-> sabotagebeats: "dpkg -i <file.deb>"
[01:51] <sabotagebeats> TJ-, does that have the same effect as installing with "ubuntu software center"
[01:52] <votlon> Is it possible to have two different desktop environments on separate monitors, such as xfce on the left and i3 on the right?
[01:52] <TJ-> sabotagebeats: no. a standalone .deb file is what is downloaded via apt/software center. But dpk cannot solve dependencies whereas apt/software center will fetch all the .deb files that are required to satisfy the dependencies
[01:52] <phanes_> kernel is 4.2.0-16-generic
[01:53] <TJ-> votlon: yes, with separate isloated X servers, or with 1 X server with 2 X sessions
[01:53] <sabotagebeats> TJ-, no i've already downloaded the .deb now when i double click it, it will open the ubuntu software center
[01:53] <TJ-> sabotagebeats: oh, I rarely use the GUI for such things, they get in my way
[01:54] <sabotagebeats> TJ-, i'm assuming it does the same thing?
[01:54] <sabotagebeats> whatever it is it's doing it lol
[01:54] <Ben64> sabotagebeats: well installing a deb still doesn't fix dependencies or get updates or anything
[01:54] <squinty> sabotagebeats,  you could also install  gdebi  from the repos to install debs
[01:54] <TJ-> sabotagebeats: I would hope so, software center is a GUI front-end to apt
[01:54] <sabotagebeats> i'm just trying to install google chrome
[01:55] <votlon> TJ-: Would i be able to transfer files or program windodws over the two x servers?
[01:55] <TJ-> sabotagebeats: you know Ubuntu has the open-source chromium-browser version of that?
[01:55] <TJ-> votlon: no
[01:55] <sabotagebeats> TJ-, yea but it doesn't work the same for some reason
[01:55] <TJ-> votlon: you need the same X session to do that
[01:56] <votlon> TJ-: okay! thx for the response, how would that work with a mouse though? Would it be able to go between the two servers?
[01:56] <TJ-> sabotagebeats: maybe S.C. is doing what gdebi was used for then - just installing that .deb without doing any dependency resolution
[01:56] <sabotagebeats> TJ-, it looks like it
[01:56] <sabotagebeats> it's not downloading stuff
[01:56] <TJ-> votlon: for 2 X servers you'd need separate xorg.conf with separate input devices for each... it is basically a proper MultiSeat setup
[01:56] <squinty> gdebi checks for dependancies before installing... it won't install if all dependancies are not satisfied
[01:57] <TJ-> votlon: whereas a single X server with multiple X sessions, input devices are shared across them, as is the X clipboard
[01:57] <FuriousGeorge> how is this possibly when everything i read suggests the former does not support latter  "pve-manager : Depends: systemd but it is not installable."
[01:57] <TJ-> squinty: correct; but it won't resolve/fetch dependencies. I rather asssumed if S.C. is the .deb handler it would use it's 'apt' side to d that
[01:57] <Rhorse> Hey guys, new user here. Just installed 15.10. Pretty impressed. What is the recommended procedure when going into suspend mode for connected usb drives? Should I unmount them prior to putting computer to sleep, or will they be automagically unmounted and remounted when resume?
[01:58] <squinty> sabotagebeats,  if you have gdebi installed, right click on the deb you want to install in your file manager and select "open with"  that will bypass the software center
[01:58] <phanes_> provided your network works
[01:58] <sabotagebeats> ok thanks
[01:58] <phanes_> which contextually is a real concern
[01:58] <phanes_> llol
[01:58] <votlon> TJ-: so basicly I need two keyboards and mouses
[01:58] <FuriousGeorge> i maksed systemd as a matter of fact because i read proxmox was not compativle
[01:59] <Hydr0p0nX> phanes_:linux-headers-generic should get you the kernel headers and http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=4&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#92 has realtek's published driver
[02:00] <votlon> Just so i'm understanding correctly, i wouldn't be able to use two different window managers in a single x server instance?
[02:01] <TJ-> votlon: in separate X sessions on 1 server, yes, but it'd be a pain to figure out how to configure!
[02:02] <TJ-> votlon: mainly due to the standard *buntu display-manager/Xsession configurations shipped as standard that assume 1 user, 1 desktop
[02:03] <votlon> TJ-: Eh i'm free for a week, I really wanna get this working :P At least theres a chance!
[02:05] <votlon> TJ-: You think two seperate x sessions would be better or If i just nested two X instances?
[02:06] <phanes_> oh.  no, I'm trying debian first I'll be back in if I ever see this issue again on another distro before I die but thanks again for the info, I just can't be doing that on a fresh install of a major release.
[02:06] <Hydr0p0nX> wow, what a douche
[02:06] <Hydr0p0nX> lol
[02:07] <votlon> the phanes guy?
[02:07] <Hydr0p0nX> yea
[02:07] <votlon> lulz
[02:08] <TJ-> votlon: I'd think 2 X sessions, and not use the Ubuntu display manager. work with startx and configure things via the scripts for /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ etc
[02:09] <votlon> ight will do
[02:09] <TJ-> Hydr0p0nX: some support people get paid to accept abuse... we do it for free :D
[02:10] <votlon> On that topic though, I was told some time ago your never supposed to startx as root but I was reading a book the other day that had root startx to log into kde, is sudo startx bad or was i just told wrong?
[02:10] <TJ-> votlon: well X needs root access to do its job
[02:11] <Hydr0p0nX> eh, I work SCM in a dev shop
[02:11] <TJ-> votlon: but having the user sessions as root isn't going to help for a general purpose desktop
[02:11] <squintskii> does ubuntu have screensavers?
[02:11] <squintskii> cuz i cant find them
[02:11] <TJ-> squintskii: modern displays don't suffer burn-in :)
[02:12] <squintskii> TJ-, they do suffer image retention though
[02:12] <squintskii> less severe but still annoying :P
[02:12] <Hydr0p0nX> I get real abuse @ work
[02:12] <squintskii> so my question still stands
[02:12] <squintskii> does ubuntu have screensavers?
[02:12] <votlon> wait is retention and burn not the same thing?
[02:12] <squintskii> no
[02:12] <squintskii> burn in is permanent, retention isn't neccesarily permanent
[02:12] <squintskii> and usually isn't on LCD displays
[02:13] <votlon> ah kool to know
[02:14] <TJ-> the solution to image persistence on LCDs is to turn the damned thing off for a while, not a 'screensaver'!
[02:14] <Hydr0p0nX> I think so squintskii, but I haven't honestly checked in a while, my linux box is a myth server and plugged in to the tv
[02:14] <TJ-> !find screensaver
[02:14] <TardisTravler> hello?
[02:15] <TardisTravler> anyone here?
[02:15] <Hugo> hi all
[02:15] <TardisTravler> hi hugo
[02:15] <TardisTravler> did you get this/
[02:15] <TardisTravler> ?
[02:15] <votlon> No i can't read anything you say
[02:16] <TardisTravler> then how do you know if i sent it or not? ;-)
[02:16] <votlon> Tardis who?
[02:16] <votlon> Thx for the help again though TJ
[02:16] <Hugo> Am from East Timor
[02:16] <Hugo> & Ubuntu User
[02:16] <Hugo> i need help

[02:19] <Hugo> how to close Apport notification in ubuntu?
[02:21] <Hydr0p0nX> try: sudo service apport stop
[02:22] <Hugo> Hydr0p0nX: Obrigado Amigo :)
[02:30] <SuperBOP> ubuntu 14.04lts sometimes two finger scroll on trackpad brings up alt-tab app switcher instead of scrolling up and down... any ideas on how to fix?
[02:33] <julian_> wazzup
[02:33] <SuperBOP> cant find option in keyboard shortcuts or mouse and trackpad in system settings or unity tweak tool
[02:33] <julian_> what the hell is this chat room?
[02:34] <SuperBOP> quiet apparently
[02:35] <Hydr0p0nX> SuperBOP, if it helps, I have the same problem in windows
[02:36] <SuperBOP> windows 8 or 8.1?
[02:36] <Hydr0p0nX> I think it's down to sensitivity around the corners and/or mouse buttons
[02:36] <Hydr0p0nX> 7
[02:36] <SuperBOP> didnt windows have a 4 finger horizontal scroll app switch?
[02:36] <votlon> SuperBOP: U using unity?
[02:37] <SuperBOP> votion: yes
[02:37] <SuperBOP> cant pinpoint whats causing it doesnt happen all the time
[02:39] <Derek_> hello
[02:40] <Guest79239> Was wondering if someone would be willing to help a complete lost noob on something
[02:41] <compdoc> maybe
[02:41] <votlon> SuperBOP: Test it in xev
[02:41] <Guest79239> I kinda got stuck having to set up something that Is way out of my paygrade
[02:42] <votlon> Ask the questions and we can help :)
[02:43] <Guest79239> Okay I am in another country right now and a company donated a media server for the medical team here
[02:43] <Guest79239> (Dr's without borders)
[02:43] <Guest79239> it was sent down by plane...
[02:43] <Guest79239> Its a server with 6 x 1 TB hard drives running ubuntu
[02:44] <SuperBOP> votlon: u want output or do i look for something should i specify an option ?
[02:44] <Guest79239> it has a large repository of movies etc to be like a media server
[02:44] <Guest79239> We have wifi in our living area with is a bunch of trailers.. it has like a DSL service here .. I have access to the router (Mikrotik) and the root of the ubuntu server
[02:45] <Guest79239> I ran a Cat 5E cable about 35 feet to this thing in hopes I could hook it up to the Mikrotik router and make it shareable to all clients via wif
[02:46] <Guest79239> I plugged up the cable to the back on the two Gigabit ports on the back and Gigabit 1 says "unmanaged" when I look at it in network services... port 2 if I plug up I see it saying connecting and the turns off connecting and turns off
[02:46] <votlon> SuperBOP: I'd say replicate the event and see what xinput says is happening
[02:47] <Guest79239> So I am stuck at that point for now. I also don't understand why there is a switch in the case it came with.. it had its own switch with the cable coming from the back of the computer to port 24 of this cisco switch.. and 3 premade cat 5 cables in ports 1 2 and 3... I can't understand what the people who built this were going with or what their intent was
[02:47] <SuperBOP> votlon: ill try that next time... it seems to happen at random thx for suggestion
[02:48] <Guest79239> help
[02:50] <Hydr0p0nX> Guest79239: can you take a picture of it and post somewhere we can see it ?
[02:51] <Hydr0p0nX> what i'm picturing doesn't seem like it'd be right
[02:51] <Guest79239> sure thing wait one
[02:52] <votlon> Guest79239: also run "ifconfig -a"so we can see the network links
[02:55] <votlon> Guest79239: Use http://paste.debian.net/ don't post it in chat ;)
[02:55] <Guest79239> https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-XNd9vHIZjZA/Vv7_KVksP0I/AAAAAAAAENw/SvaR1RQZ75MZDiC3TUTNwKbssgd4E4LAw/w702-h395-no/2016-04-01.jpg
[02:55] <Guest79239> this is picture
[02:55] <Guest79239> okay
[02:56] <Guest79239> gimme a second I gotta take my laptop down to the server
[02:56] <SuperBOP> thats a beast
[02:57] <Hydr0p0nX> yea, that's not what I was expecting at all
[02:58] <dimme> quick question, are there apps that let you dim the screen below the minimum that is available in the brightness settings found within Unity?
[03:00] <votlon> Guest79239: So the key to getting the correct answer is asking the right questions, are you just having networking issues?
[03:02] <theguythatreally> hello
[03:02] <theguythatreally> hey its me
[03:03] <theguythatreally> the guy asking about the ubuntu server
[03:03] <theguythatreally> i got disconnected
[03:03] <theguythatreally> media server
[03:03] <votlon> theguythatreally: So the key to getting the correct answer is asking the right questions, are you just having networking issues?
[03:03] <theguythatreally> yes
[03:03] <theguythatreally> because at the moment
[03:03] <theguythatreally> i am not getting a connection
[03:03] <votlon> What os is on ur laptop
[03:03] <theguythatreally> win 7
[03:04] <votlon> u have any live boot cd's for a linux os?
[03:05] <theguythatreally> i do not
[03:06] <dimme> can you ping host?
[03:06] <theguythatreally> one sec
[03:06] <dimme> or loopback w/e
[03:07] <theguythatreally> i am plugging in the ethernet cable i made to my laptop to see if I can make sure i am even getting anywhere there before i get ahead of myself
[03:08] <theguythatreally> well i have plugged up the cable to my laptop..
[03:09] <theguythatreally> I am getting on my laptop no network access
[03:09] <theguythatreally> however I don't know for sure if this port is enabled on the Mikrotik router
[03:09] <theguythatreally> where the wifi etc is hooked up too
[03:09] <votlon> install an app called zenmap
[03:09] <theguythatreally> ok
[03:10] <votlon> On ur windows comptuer not the server
[03:12] <theguythatreally> i am @votlon
[03:17] <elosz> I am running sshd on port 22. But I do nc -l -p 3333 -c 'nc localhost 22' on my server
[03:17] <elosz> and on client side, I do nc serverip 3333. I can see OpenSSH_6.6.1p1 Ubuntu-2ubuntu2.6 but no bash access
[03:18] <elosz> any idea why? if I type anything, I get protocol mismatch error
[03:19] <daniel__> hello
[03:20] <daniel__> exit
[03:20] <thatguythatneedh> its me again i keep loosing connection
[03:20] <thatguythatneedh> i downloaded the program
[03:23] <votlon> use zenmap to scan the network from your laptop useing the ip's 192.168.1.0/24
[03:24] <Hydr0p0nX> elosz, what version of ubuntu ?
[03:24] <Hydr0p0nX> per the man page, at least 14.04.1, doesn't have -c support
[03:24] <elosz> Hydr0p0nX: ubuntu 14.04
[03:24] <thatguythatneedh> doing so now #votlon
[03:24] <elosz> Hydr0p0nX: I installed nc.traditional
[03:26] <gnux> hello
[03:26] <votlon> thatguythatneedh: i'd do a fast scan if i was u, -F -T4
[03:26] <gnux> who are you ?
[03:26] <votlon> i am who i am
[03:26] <Hydr0p0nX> elosz: what exactly are you trying to accomplish ?
[03:27] <Hydr0p0nX> it looks like your trying to proxy ssh over 3333  ?
[03:28] <gnux> have a tutorial about hacking ?
[03:28] <elosz> Hydr0p0nX: yeah kinda. clients can connect to port 3333 which will tunnel traffic to port 22
[03:29] <Jordan_U> elosz: Why?
[03:30] <elosz> Jordan_U: just experimenting
[03:30] <votlon> gnux: any tutorial about hacking would just make you a script kiddie and we wouldn't want that, now would we
[03:30] <votlon> #SelfRespect
[03:31] <gnux> volton: i just want to learn how to hacking but I confused how i begin, can help me ?
[03:32] <SuperBOP> gnux: what do you want to hack?
[03:32] <davido> Is the "What's New" section of Ubuntu Software Center ever actually updated?
 wordpress site
[03:32] <Rhorse> Hi,  What is the recommended procedure when going into suspend mode for connected usb drives? Should I unmount them prior to putting computer to sleep, or will they be automagically unmounted and remounted when resume?
[03:33] <Jordan_U> gnux: This channel will not help you with cracking or trying to gain access to websites by exploiting vulnerabilities. Please don't ask again.
[03:33] <votlon> gnux: No one here would help you knowing that, Mods are gonna banhammer thinking ur trying to blackhat
[03:35] <jbirky> I am thinking about trying Ubuntu Linux again
[03:35] <Hydr0p0nX> elosz: any reason not to just use -x  ?
[03:35] <votlon> jbirky: no time for think, only do
[03:36] <jbirky> I used to use Ubuntu way back at 7.10 or so
[03:36] <elosz> Hydr0p0nX: i am trying to get it to work using only nc.traditional
[03:36] <gnux> jbriky: try to update
[03:36] <jbirky> It was good until some NVidia drivers broke
[03:37] <jbirky> Right now I have Windows 10
[03:37] <jbirky> , and I really don't like it
[03:38] <zykotick9> Rhorse: i was kinda curious about your question - so i tried it: i had an externally mounted usb drive, suspended/resumed, and the drive was still mounted upon resuming.
[03:38] <jbirky> Anyway, my predominant concern is Unity and drives
[03:38] <jbirky> Will it likely work with my Xerox Phaser 6125?
[03:38] <votlon> zykotick9: i think he was asking if its okay for the drive to unmount and remount if it suspends
[03:39] <jbirky> Does anyone have any suggestions?
[03:40] <votlon> Ubuntu's binaries are gonna be on windows for bash
[03:40] <votlon> u could just wait if u don't like linux enough to switch
[03:40] <jbirky> Just wait for what?
[03:40] <votlon> Bash on windows 10
[03:41] <jbirky> Why would I want Bash on Windows 10?
[03:41] <votlon> i'm assuming ur a gamer since ur worried about the nvidia drivers
[03:41] <jbirky> That just makes no sense... I bet it doesn't even support drive letters
[03:41] <jbirky> Not a gamemr
[03:41] <Jordan_U> jbirky: Try all of the major flavors, Ubuntu, Ubuntu Gnome, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Lubuntu via LiveUSB and see which desktop environment(s) suit you.
[03:41] <jbirky> but last time I used Ubuntu I had hell with NVIDIA drivers
[03:42] <votlon> u can pretty much just apt-get the drivers now
[03:42] <jbirky> I would have to re-install the nvidia drivers before starting X each time I booted
[03:42] <Rhorse> zykotick9: thanks.
[03:42] <votlon> lols
[03:42] <davido> NVIDIA drivers are among the best available for Ubuntu these days.
[03:42] <jbirky> Oh, cool.
[03:43] <jbirky> , so I don't have to turn on all these crazy metaverse repositories?
[03:43] <jbirky> Does it still run Compiz?
[03:44] <Jordan_U> jbirky: Nope. Just use the "Additional Drivers" tool to enable the proprietary Nvidia drivers, and you may even find that the Free nouveau drivers are good enough now that you can just happily stick with them.
[03:45] <jbirky> Oh, cool
[03:45] <Jordan_U> jbirky: Unity still uses Compiz, no other major flavor does by default.
[03:45] <jbirky> Ah okay... is there anything better than Compiz currently?
[03:47] <Jordan_U> jbirky: Depends on what you're looking for. I find Gnome Shell's effects to be practical and beautiful, but they don't add effects just for the sake of it like a spinning cube or wobbly windows.
[03:47] <jbirky> Ah, okay
[03:47] <jbirky> Can I still run Gnome?
[03:47] <jbirky> I used to use that last time I used Ubuntu
[03:47] <votlon> #TilingWidnowMangerLife
[03:48] <votlon> luls widnow
[03:48] <Jordan_U> jbirky: KDE can wobble its windows but doesn't by default. Again, I recommend just trying all the major DEs yourself.
[03:48] <jbirky> Okay, so like KDE, Gnome, and Unity?
[03:49] <Jordan_U> jbirky: Yes. And maybe XFCE for a modern but still "traditional" DE.
[03:49] <Rhorse> Jordan_U: some people just have too many cpu cycles to spare. That's my take of desktop effects.
[03:49] <lotuspsychje> i tested wobbly windows on unity7 with compiz plugins extras, and working like a charm on 14.04
[03:49] <jbirky> I used to use something that added a macintosh like Dock
[03:49] <jbirky> I would sort of like something like that at the bottom
[03:49] <jbirky> and/or a start menu like Windows 7
[03:49] <jbirky> ... without the START button
[03:50] <lotuspsychje> jbirky: 16.04 with unity wil be able to set dock at bottom, you can install docky also
[03:51] <jbirky> apt-get install still?
[03:51] <lotuspsychje> !info docky | jbirky sudo apt-get install docky
[03:51] <jbirky> How is the new Kernel?
[03:51] <jbirky> Cool
[03:51] <jbirky> Last kernel I used was 2.6.x
[03:52] <jbirky> Is Kernel 4.x still stable, reliable, etc.
[03:52] <lotuspsychje> jbirky: lets not generalize things, focus on your specific issues
[03:52] <jbirky> It sounds like it will be okay
[03:53] <jbirky> The only other support I need is to be able to run Microsoft Office and to print
[03:53] <jbirky> I have a Phaser 6125
[03:53] <trento_fan> hello all
[03:53] <jbirky> If not, I guess I could buy a new printer
[03:54] <lotuspsychje> trento_fan: welcome, how can we help you?
[03:55] <jbirky> Well, I am going to give it a try thanks
[03:55] <lotuspsychje> jbirky: some older versions of ms office you can install via wine/playonlinux
[03:55] <trento_fan> thanks, no help needed. just wanted to see what everyone is up to
[03:55] <jbirky> Ah okay
[03:55] <lotuspsychje> jbirky: printing, in most cases will be able by default, some need drivers
[03:56] <lotuspsychje> jbirky: libreoffice is a nice alternative and recommended
[03:56] <jbirky> I have tried Libre on Windows
[03:57] <jbirky> It was just alright
[03:57] <jbirky> Reminded me of Office 2003

[05:04] <Gallomimia> !info teamspeak3
[05:04] <Gallomimia> hey is there a TS3 package?
[05:04] <Gallomimia> or i gotta download from site?
[05:05] <M-alex_mayorga> Gallomimia (IRC): Looks like the bot already said there isn't.
[05:05] <baizon> Gallomimia: from the website
[05:06] <Gallomimia> ty
[05:07] <Gallomimia> M-alex_mayorga: the bot doesn't tell you if you spelled it wrong or it's some wild other name
[05:09] <lotuspsychje> !info mumble | Gallomimia or try this one?
[05:10] <Gallomimia> yes, i have mumble
[05:10] <M-alex_mayorga> Gallomimia (IRC): Fair point.
[05:10] <Gallomimia> but it really doesn't seem to agree with the windows userbase
[05:10] <lotuspsychje> !teamspeak | Gallomimia
[05:10] <Gallomimia> can't tell if its cause they're stupid, or if it's genuinely hard to use on windows :/
[05:11] <Gallomimia> *insert fry squinty meme face here*
[05:11] <M-alex_mayorga> I'm trying to install 16.04 on my sister's laptop and got stuck as described at http://askubuntu.com/questions/750229/attempting-to-re-install-ubuntu-results-in-blank-gray-screen/ Anyone here knows how to workaround?
[05:12] <lotuspsychje> M-alex_mayorga: #ubuntu+1 for 16.04 support please
[05:14] <M-alex_mayorga> lotuspsychje (IRC): Seems to be a problem since 14.04 days it seems so I wonder if anyone here knows a fix.
[05:14] <M-alex_mayorga> lotuspsychje (IRC): But thanks! Will ask there too.
[05:14] <lotuspsychje> M-alex_mayorga: if you tried it with 16.04 plz join #ubuntu+1
[05:16] <protoss> I don't seem to be able to install updates, Software Updater crashes when it flashes "Configuring Samba", and sudo apt-get update doesn't appear to actually update anything. Any suggestions for how to fix?
[05:34] <dax> Gallomimia: nothing wrong with Mumble on Windows, I used to use it regularly
[05:34] <dax> Gallomimia: so the former I guess
[05:35] <Gallomimia> I'm going to blame windows for dumbing them down then... cause it's happened more than once. And from people who I consider smart with computers.
[05:35] <Gallomimia> aside from their windows affliction :/
[05:35] <dax> anyway. If I recall correctly Teamspeak's Linux client's license is a mess
[05:35] <dax> Discord is another option, I think it works on Linux
[05:35] <Gallomimia> yeah uhm... license. i read it. sure
[05:36] <ben64_> hello
[05:36] <dax> that explains more why it isn't packaged :P

[05:37] <Gallomimia> others vlc
[05:38] <Gallomimia> but most require some library to be installed. also for general music use, i prefer amarok

[06:01] <Guest89103> Intel G31 Express chipset
[06:02] <lotuspsychje> Guest89103: try what baizon suggested, more lightweight: lubuntu or xubuntu
[06:02] <Guest89103> i like ubuntu...
[06:02] <lotuspsychje> Guest89103: but maybe ubuntu desktop doesnt like your specs
[06:02] <fedoen> Guest89103: Ubuntu doesn't like old comps :)
[06:03] <Guest89103> humm...
[06:03] <Guest89103> ok thanks

[06:45] <fedoen> I didn't get your ubuntu version...
[06:46] <octavian_> fedoen, 16.04
[06:46] <fedoen> huh
[06:46] <fedoen> I'm not there yet
[06:47] <fedoen> octavian_:  but you can use software and updates on your desktop to check other software to see if you don't have there anything added by hand
[06:48] <fedoen> octavian_: also on ubuntu software page you can select a different server (main server) as beta version might not be yet available on ro servers

[07:33] <walter-j> someone can help me to fix this error : QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL driver not loaded
[07:41] <vaccine> Hi, I tried running Econnman on my ubuntu 14.04 host and now my wireless isn't working.. rfkill shows a soft block but I'm not clear how to get it running again.  Any suggestions?
[07:46] <Arch> what is nat
[07:47] <Seveas> vaccine: try this: nmcli radio all on
[07:48] <vaccine> Seveas, says it's not installed =(
[07:48] <Seveas> then you're not running stock ubuntu :)
[07:48] <Seveas> ah, 14.04, missed that. nmcli didn't exist back then I think
[07:49] <vaccine> Should I go to 15.10?
[07:49] <SuperBOP> Arch: network address translation
[07:49] <Seveas> vaccine: well, if you prefer LTS, I'd wait a month and upgrade to 16.04
[07:50] <Seveas> vaccine: if you rightclick on the network-manager icon, don't you get an option to enable wifi?
[07:51] <Arch> nat
[07:51] <vaccine> Seveas, when I open the network prefs I get a pop-up that says "The system network services are not compatible with this version" =(
[07:51] <Seveas> ew.
[07:51] <Seveas> that sounds like you've been messing with PPA's
[07:51] <SuperBOP> Arch: yes
[07:52] <Arch> ok thanks
[07:52] <SuperBOP> Arch: welcome
[07:52] <vaccine> Yeah, a little.. I was messing with Econnman, and it barfed
[07:52] <Arch> ok thanks SuperBOP
[07:52] <SuperBOP> Arch: np did that help?
[07:53] <Arch> Yes
[07:53] <vaccine> Seveas, I can hook up an ethernet cable and get nmcli if you think it would help
[07:53] <SuperBOP> Arch: awesome! im out have a good weekend
[07:54] <Arch> one thing i have to know.
[07:54] <Arch> ok peace
[07:54] <Seveas> vaccine: neh, you'll need to upgrade network-manager for that, and that won't work. Though it will help to disable the ppa's and reinstall network-manager from the ubuntu repos
[07:54] <Seveas> !ppa-purge
[07:54] <SuperBOP> Arch: peace these guys know everything they can prob help
[07:55] <SuperBOP> good luck
[07:56] <Arch> ill take it thanks, right back.
[07:56] <vaccine> Well, I used some of the PPAs to install enlightenment
[07:56] <meridel> Hello
[07:56] <meridel> Anyone not indleing ? ^^
[07:57] <geirha> meridel: If you have a question, just ask
[07:57] <meridel> Sure
[07:57] <meridel> So I got a problem just at the post-install of Ubuntu: I can't login in graphical mode
[07:58] <meridel> It justs brings me back to the login area
[07:58] <meridel> I can login in command line tho
[07:58] <meridel> I searched on the forums and a lot of people said the solution is to rm the .Xauthority file: sadly, it didn't work and the file keeps beeing generated
[07:59] <Seveas> meridel: xauthority seems unlikely. Check for errors in ~/.xsession-errors and /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[07:59] <meridel> Thank you, trying that
[08:02] <Ben64> meridel: the problem isn't that the file exists, but that it might exist and not be owned by you
[08:02] <meridel> Yeah, that's what I red
[08:02] <vaccine> Seveas, any recommendations what to do from here?  I need the PPAs for enlightenment, but I can always reinstall it. But my wifi still won't be working.
[08:02] <vaccine> I could just reinstall with 15.10
[08:02] <vaccine> and go from there
[08:03] <Seveas> vaccine: well, with enlightenment the network is managed differently anyway, and I have no clue about how it does its things.
[08:04] <vaccine> hm
[08:06] <meridel> I dont really have any error message in the logs, it just says that a lot a procs were TERM
[08:08] <meridel> Well I guess i'll reinstall T_T
[08:10] <meridel> Tiring...
[08:20] <halt> I expect this channel is busy so if you have any better suggestion for my question please feel free, I have a Thinkpad x260 with Siera 4G modem, and I fail to make it work, I can see the modem, even the SIM in the modem but can't turn it on
[08:21] <halt> by default the ubuntu certification is valid only for the LTS, and I'm running latest, and also the 4G card is not listed even on the certification page, but I hope I can make it work
[08:23] <halt> I tried it with mbim-networks modem-manager network manager but no luck
[08:31] <TJ-> halt: most issues with USB modems is due to needing a special rule in usb-modeswitch to recognise and switch the USB device from it's initial identity as a virtual CD device, into another identity as a serial-port based modem, OR an Ethernet network device
[08:37] <halt> ok that's something so usb-modeswitch as a package has a config which I will need to experiment with I guess
[08:41] <Lumia930> has any one used collabnet Edge ?
[08:41] <Lumia930> Collabnet Edge am unable to set permission for users.. any one hands on this ?
[08:52] <TJ-> halt: not so much no, but you need to identify *which mode* - Ethernet or Serial Port Modem - the Sierra 4G is in. If it is presenting an *Ethernet* interface modem-manager will have nothing to do with it, and instead you treat it like any other wired Ethernet connection
[08:52] <TJ-> halt: so, check if you've got an unexpected Ethernet link: "ip link show"
[08:54] <halt>  I do have a wwan0 interface if that's you asking
[08:56] <TJ-> halt: well, then that is probably it. Check if it has been given an IP address "ip add show dev wwan0"
[08:56] <exalt> does this mean my firewall is blocking bind ? Apr  2 08:43:35 ns2 kernel: [391115.276717] [UFW BLOCK] IN= OUT=eth0 SRC=y.y.y.y DST=x.x.x.x LEN=65 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=60124 PROTO=UDP SPT=63897 DPT=53 LEN=45
[08:56] <TJ-> halt: it's VERY possible the device has an internal DHCP server, and issues your PC with an address. That will suggest there is an embedded web server on the modem, and you connect to it via your browser to log-in and enable the connection
[08:57] <TJ-> exalt: yes; blocking outgoing DNS UDP requests
[08:58] <TJ-> halt: if my hypothesis is correct, you need to check the modem docs to find out what IP address it'll be presenting. You may find it via "ip neigh show"
[09:01] <halt> TJ-: I can't see any IP on the interface, nor found any webinterface ( yet ) if this help the device iteslf is a build in 4G model, to be more specific ( usb:0 Sierra Wirelsee EM7455 Qaulcomm Snapdragon X7 LTE-A )
[09:01] <halt> checkount neigh now
[09:02] <halt> ip neigh show give me an empty respond
[09:03] <TJ-> do you know if the device is EM or MC series? see http://www.sierrawireless.com/products-and-solutions/embedded-solutions/em-and-mc-series/
[09:05] <exalt> TJ-: i have been able to fix the firewall problem, how do i chech wheter my setup works
[09:05] <exalt> check*
[09:06] <exalt> i guess it can take a while untill the nameservers are adapted, am i right
[09:06] <exalt> ?
[09:07] <halt> TJ-: based on the component list I expect it's EM but not sure... I got the EM7455 from the lshw
[09:07] <baranutar> dadd
[09:07] <baranutar> hey
[09:08] <baranutar> naber
[09:08] <exalt> hmm what does "The parent nameservers do not have your nameservers listed" mean ?
[09:08] <baranutar> hacker crazy team
[09:08] <TJ-> halt: this forum post linked from the Sierra tech docs section for that EM7455 indicates you need to take special measures to get it to work: https://forum.sierrawireless.com//viewtopic.php?f=117&t=9611
[09:09] <baranutar> deletetion
[09:09] <baranutar> l'nk
[09:09] <baranutar> hacker by dart frog
[09:09] <Trucio> ciao
[09:10] <TJ-> halt: the Seirra tech docs area seems to confirm the device can do either serial or ethernet interfaces
[09:10] <Trucio> !list
[09:11] <exalt> TJ-: http://www.buddyns.com/delegation-lab/noxor.nl <-- how do i fix this
[09:11] <exalt> i guess i have to make ns5.dns.nl point to my authority
[09:13] <TJ-> exalt: if you're using a 3rd party DNS service, then the SOA can be set to one of their servers, and you configure your DNS server with the 3rd party's servers as slaves to allow zone transfers to them
[09:14] <exalt> no i have set the dns servers up myself and pointed the nameservers of the domain to mine
[09:14] <exalt> hmm i toke a second view and i guess it is configured okey, i guess
[09:14] <exalt> just wait
[09:16] <TJ-> exalt: that graph looks to be telling me that dns.nl are operating as the advertised name-servers for noxor.nl. I'd expect ns1.noxor.nl to be the SOA in that case with it configured to do zone transfers to the dns.nl network
[09:17] <halt> TJ-: so you suggest if I let it switch to enternet interface ( or force it somehow ) then I will be able to connect to like a client and the connection will be not managed from the OS itself but the firmware on the device, if I got the idea right ? in the meantime I'm reading up the forum you just posted it's super fresh, comments are just from yesterday
[09:19] <TJ-> exalt: it looks like you've got a mistake in the SOA admin contact email address
[09:20] <TJ-> halt: yes, that is the general way it works. I have a device like that from Huewai
[09:22] <TJ-> exalt: it shows as "admin.noxor.nl.noxor.nl." which tells me you entered the full domain-name without a "." suffix, so it has appended the zone name to it
[09:24] <rindolf> Hi all! 1. I'd like to report than in an Ubuntu 14.04 x86-64 VM connected to bezeqint.net in Israel, "apt-get update" often gets stalled on a line for many seconds. 2. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases - what does "HWE" mean here? I cannot find it here - https://duckduckgo.com/?q=HWE&ia=meanings
[09:24] <Hyperbyte> Hi!  After some recent updates on 14.04 LTS my laptop suddenly turns on numlock after login (it's off on the login screen).  I've Googled for this and found 1849 articles about how to turn numlock on by default, but how do I turn it off? :-)
[09:26] <rindolf> Hyperbyte: let me see.
[09:26] <Hyperbyte> This is XFCE btw.  I should've mentioned that.
[09:27] <Hyperbyte> In fact, maybe I should ask there or file a bug report there?  Since it happens after login.
[09:28] <rindolf> Hyperbyte: maybe use numlockx off?
[09:28] <rindolf> Hyperbyte: see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1457824
[09:29] <Hyperbyte> Hm, I didn't know numlockx could also turn numlock off... that's useful.
[09:30] <Hyperbyte> Okay that's a nice workaround...
[09:31] <rindolf> Hyperbyte: you're welcome .
[09:32] <mhahe> hello all, Having issues with my network and packet loss. running ubuntu 14.04. getting lots of erratic packet loss
[09:32] <mhahe> any similar cases recently? This problem started last week after an update. I fixed it by reseting my mac address for the wifi ssid in the network manager. seemed to do the trick until today.
[09:35] <rindolf> mhahe: hi! Is the mac address ok now?
[09:36] <mhahe> it wasn't set until I set it and it remains there unchanged. the issue is similar to before in behaviour but obviously the previous fix isn't the solution this time around
[09:38] <rindolf> mhahe: ah, do you have any other system on that machine? Does it work ok there?
[09:39] <mhahe> its not dual boot. I have my wife's laptop. windows 10. working perfectly
[09:39] <mhahe> I'm getting packet loss pinging my gateway/router from ubuntu. no packet loss from windows
[09:40] <mhahe> also tracert working to 8.8.8.8 from windows. traceroute on ubuntu works some and then not for some
[09:41] <mhahe> I think i'm going to do a fresh install. dont have time for this bs. :S
[09:41] <rindolf> mhahe: bye! I'm going for a walk.
[09:41] <mhahe> bb
[09:41] <rindolf> mhahe: good luck in fixing the problem.
[09:58] <tuxdude143> So im having an issue in ubuntu 15.10. im using a surface pro 2 and after the os has been up for around 15 minutes with the wifi on the whole system locks up. I hear updating to kernel 4.3 may fix it but Im not sure if 15.10 uses kernel 4.3 already
[10:00] <tuxdude143> anyone else had experience with 15.10 on the surface pro?
[10:01] <vbotka> tuxdude143, it doesn't, latest update of kernel in 15.10 is 4.2.0-34
[10:02] <tuxdude143> Oh i see. That might be why. I hear a lot of surface related fixes got added in 4.3 so updating to it would probably fix my problem. Ill try that tomorrow
[10:03] <vbotka> tuxdude143, or give a try to 16.04 if not in production ?
[10:04] <tuxdude143> Eh, i dont mind waiting for 16.04. If i can fix the issues in 15.10 then that will surfice me until 16.04 stable rolls out
[10:05] <vbotka> tuxdude143, tes, that's the trade-off
[10:06] <tuxdude143> I'll just update the kernel and see if that fixes my issue
[10:06] <JennyBlueBird> Hi guys. In xubuntu Is there any easy way to disable the mouse settings daemon/applet as I prefer to use my xorg.conf.d directory to set the mouse configuration ?
[10:06] <JennyBlueBird> Presently it seems to override the xorg settings ( I assume it reads xinput or something )
[10:12] <vbotka> JennyBlueBird, in 15.10 I redefined the buttons in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/11-mouse.conf and didn't have to disable any daemon. You just have to restart X after you change configuration.
[10:12] <JennyBlueBird> vbotka, I've done that, and it works as expected in the login screen, but once I log in my mouse acceleration is higher than I want
[10:13] <JennyBlueBird> vbotka, specifically, I want to set it at lower than minimum
[10:13] <JennyBlueBird> vbotka, so, is there an easy way to simply kill whatever app or service controls it ?
[10:13] <JennyBlueBird> I just want it to not mess with the settings at all
[10:18] <vbotka> JennyBlueBird, you might want to try and run xfce4-settings-editor, select pointers and edit the acceleration manually.
[10:19] <JennyBlueBird> vbotka, it does not go down far enough, and yes that was the first thing I tried
[10:19] <JennyBlueBird> I want to decellerate it
[10:19] <JennyBlueBird> and no, the default controls don't do it
[10:20] <JennyBlueBird> I am using unusual features that the default GUI does not support, so I need to make it not mess with my setings
[10:20] <JennyBlueBird> frankly, all these gui settings managers should have a checkbox that's just "honour default configuration" or something
[10:21] <meridel> Hello
[10:21] <meridel> I still have a problem on my fresh install, the font is totally messed up
[10:21] <meridel> I have black, white and invisible letters in any word, and changing the gnome theme doesnt change anything
[10:22] <The_Fly> hello, everything was working fine until a recent update, now nvidia-settings gives me a blank error dialog when i switch from intel to nvidia graphics
[10:22] <The_Fly> n56vm laptop with hybrid graphics
[10:22] <meridel> Anyone ever had this problem before ?
[10:22] <The_Fly> anyone able to advise
[10:22] <meridel> No idea sorry The_Fly
[10:23] <The_Fly> i think the kernel version was updated
[10:23] <The_Fly> not sure actually
[10:24] <The_Fly> 3.19.0-51 to 3.19.0-56 possibly
[10:24] <CookieM> you may pick previous kernel while booting
[10:24] <MonkeyDust> The_Fly  what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[10:25] <The_Fly> Linux version 3.19.0-56-generic (buildd@lgw01-10) (gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) ) #62~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 11 11:03:15 UTC 2016
[10:26] <The_Fly> i think it updated recently, and switching to nvidia broke
[10:26] <The_Fly> graphics is GT 630M
[10:26] <The_Fly> i had issues before and did a full reinstall
[10:26] <The_Fly> now ive done NOTHING other than upgrade from software centre or apt
[10:27] <MonkeyDust> The_Fly  i can see it's 14.04.1 ... first upgrade to 14.04.4
[10:27] <The_Fly> is this the cause of the issue?
[10:27] <JennyBlueBird> vbotka, gonna try to explicitly set the acceleration profile too and see if that is what is messing with it , wish me luck
[10:27] <The_Fly> any way to get better diagnostics than an empty error message MonkeyDust ?
[10:30] <The_Fly> MonkeyDust: back, sorry
[10:31] <vimes> hello! I Am trying to kill a process and make it stop autostarting, but I cannot for the love of god figure out how. any help? :) http://hastebin.com/uhebeliyoj.sm
[10:33] <vimes> can't find the process in htop
[10:34] <halt> vimes: because it's not running
[10:34] <halt> the only match in grep is the grep itself
[10:35] <halt> or it is running then under a different name not minecraft for sure
[10:35] <vimes> oh, my minecraft server cant start because it says it is already running too. must be something else, thanks
[10:36] <vimes> so ps x | grep <something> will ALWAYS yeld at least one result?
[10:36] <halt> vimes: check the sockets and PID's the init script might check that
[10:37] <halt> unless you trick him not to "[m]inecraft "
[10:37] <halt> that will search for the same but does not match himself
[10:38] <MonkeyDust> The_Fly  first upgrade to 14.04.4 ... sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
[10:38] <halt> vimes: or instead of ps | grep you can use pgrep and that will do that by default
[10:38] <vimes> thanks, there must be a fault in the script I'm trying to run
[10:39] <The_Fly> have done apt update and upgrade, do i need to do dist-upgrade to get to 14.04.4?
[10:39] <MonkeyDust> The_Fly  yes, or full-upgrade
[10:40] <Blueking> are this normal ?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/15586424/
[10:40] <vimes> could you guys take a look at the script? It's not ubuntu specific though
[10:41] <vimes> http://hastebin.com/konukobife.bash
[10:41] <MonkeyDust> vimes  better ask in #bash
[10:41] <The_Fly> MonkeyDust: wait.. Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS \n \l
[10:42] <The_Fly> already there
[10:42] <MonkeyDust> The_Fly  ok, great
[10:43] <MonkeyDust> The_Fly  as for the rest, i'm not familiar enough with nvidia or hybrid graphics
[10:43] <meridel> Anyone has an idea of why my fonts are completely messed up ? Like I said, some letters are invisible, I deactivated an option called "Hinting" and it's better but it's not perfect :/
[10:44] <The_Fly> MonkeyDust: i had issues before and reinstall helped, im not willing to do that again
[10:44] <The_Fly> MonkeyDust: or i could, but it is a waste of time, i suppose i want to discover what has broken behind the scenes this time. it's a little disconcerting
[10:44] <ernold> How can I mount an encrypted drive? My laptop died recently and I want to try recovering data from the HD. Also, will it be possible to recover the data with the user credentials I was using on the laptop and no other information?
[10:45] <The_Fly> MonkeyDust: all I get from nvidia-settings (on startup) is (nvidia-settings:2602): IBUS-WARNING **: The owner of /home/the_fly/.config/ibus/bus is not root!
[10:50] <rindolf> ernold: hi, how did you encrypt it? Do you still have the password?
[10:50] <rindolf> ernold: which partitions are there?
[10:53] <ernold> rindolf: I can't remember, TBH (I realise this is unhelpful!). It was my first Linux machine, a few years ago, and I just followed the Ubuntu 12.04 setup, and decided to encrypt then.
[10:54] <ernold> rindolf: I think there are root, boot, home and tmp partitions; maybe not exactly that, but something similar.
[10:54] <ernold> though I'd be very happy getting just the contents from my home directory
[10:55] <rindolf> ernold: ah.
[10:55] <rindolf> ernold: well, it's probably encrypted with your login password.
[10:57] <ernold> rindolf: Ah, OK, that would be perfect! Can I just mount it with `mount` and decrypt? I tried mounting before and wasn't able to see any files
[10:57] <rindolf> ernold: perhaps see this - http://askubuntu.com/questions/63594/mount-encrypted-volumes-from-command-line
[10:58] <moojuise> G'day peeps, new to using Linux and Ubuntu – set it up on a W10 pc and used a 150gig partition for it just so I could try before I buy so to speak – ive kinda fallen for Ubuntu and now really want to expand the partition – or even have it installed as the only OS and completely remove W10 – is this possible?
[10:59] <cfhowlett> it is
[11:00] <moojuise> cheers man - ill start the search now
[11:00] <jpmh> I am confused:  I have a 14.4 system with doevcot running.  All is good.  If I do: service dovecot status it works well but if I do service --status-all, it does not show up.  What am I missing here?
[11:00] <cfhowlett> moojuise, boot the live ubuntu, open gparted, delete your unwanted windows partitions. then join all freed space as an unallocated partition. install ubuntu there
[11:01] <anddam> hello
[11:01] <moojuise> thanks cfhowlett
[11:01] <ernold> rindolf: thanks! I'm currently running Debian in a VM on Windows 10; is that likely to complicate things at all?
[11:01] <moojuise> appreciate it
[11:03] <cfhowlett> moojuise, happhy2help!
[11:04] <rindolf> ernold: I think it will.
[11:06] <ernold> rindolf: will it be impossible? Or will I just need to mount it in the VM like with a normal USB drive?
[11:06] <zxd> Hi
[11:06] <TJ-> ernold: how did you encrypted the data originally? Was it so-called 'full disk' encryption (entire block device) or user home directory (which uses ecryptfs) ?
[11:07] <ernold> TJ-: pretty sure it was encryptfs now you mention it
[11:08] <ernold> *ecryptfs
[11:08] <zxd> I have Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) , using xubuntu 16 beta  When X loads I get corrupted display if I goto console ctrl+alt+f1  and back alt+f7  the screen becomes clean again
[11:08] <zxd> why does this happen
[11:09] <TJ-> ernold: OK, then you can use "ecryptfs-recover-private <${MOUNTPOINT}/home/.ecryptfs/${OLD_USER_NAME}/.Private"
[11:10] <meridel> The proprietary driver for nvidia is fglrx right ?
[11:10] <auronandace> !ubuntu+1 | zxd
[11:10] <cfhowlett> meridel, nope.
[11:10] <meridel> Oh
[11:10] <ernold> TJ-: thanks, I'll try that
[11:10] <TJ-> ernold: replace ${MOUNTPOINT} with the directory where you have mounted the original file-system. eplace ${OLD_USER_NAME} with the username you used on that old file-system. If everything goes well you'll be asked if you know the original passphrase. Answer yes, and then you'll need to give the old user's account password. Then it'll unlock and mount the user's file-system under the /tmp/XXXX/ directory
[11:11] <zxd> auronandace, it happens the same in xubuntu 15 and 14  only going to console and back dosen't fix the problem in the other ones
[11:11] <zxd> it freezes completly
[11:11] <meridel> Mh, I have a problem with my graphic driver (for a GTX 750 Ti), that makes trouble with fonts (invisible letters...), does someone has any idea of how I could fix this please ? It would be much appreciated, i'm on this since a few hours :/
[11:12] <meridel> Well I think it's the driver anyway
[11:12] <ernold> TJ-: if I don't know the original passphrase (but do know the user password), is it impossible?
[11:12] <TJ-> ernold: the user password is what you need
[11:12] <antto> my wallpaper gets messed up on ubuntustudio 14 with lxde in certain conditions, like after suspend
[11:12] <ernold> TJ-: perfect,OK. Thanks
[11:13] <TJ-> ernold: the way ecryptfs works is it creates an encryption key which is itself encrypted by your user's password. That is calle 'wrapping' the passphrase
[11:13] <meridel> Do you think I should update my driver in unstable ?
[11:13] <ernold> TJ-: ohh, I see
[11:13] <TJ-> ernold: so your user password is used to gain access to the key that is actually used to encrypt
[11:13] <TJ-> ernold: that way you can change your user password without messing up the encryption. If your password were used directly to encrypt and you changed it, your data would be gone :)
[11:14] <rindolf> meridel: fglrx are the proprietary drivers for ATI cards.
[11:15] <rindolf> meridel: which driver are you using - nvidia or nouveau?
[11:15] <meridel> I installed the proprietary driver so I guess it's the nvidia
[11:15] <meridel> I had the same problem with the free driver tought, that's why I'm not sure it comes from the driver
[11:16] <meridel> But I have no idea what else could do that ^^
[11:22] <zxd> how do I disable 3d acceleration ?
[11:22] <zxd> I only need 2d
[11:41] <ellipsis753> Hello. Any recommendations for a $600 ubuntu laptop at the moment?
[11:42] <MonkeyDust> ellipsis753  #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:44] <TJ-> don't we have a bot 'certified' hotlink?
[11:44] <TJ-> !certified
[11:46] <TJ-> !hci | ellipsis753
[11:47] <TJ-> !hardware | ellipsis753 strange, factoids claims 'hci' does hardware
[11:47] <feneco> is there any way to use skype for group video calls on ubuntu?
[11:50] <emacsen> #list
[11:50] <cfhowlett> feneco, msft has apparently disabled that function for linux
[11:54] <feneco> cfhowlett: yes, and the web version is not compatible with linux yet
[11:59] <thinky> hi
[12:00] <amincd> hi, I used boot-repair-disk and now I have a bunch of extra stuff on my grub when booting up
[12:00] <amincd> curious as to why those extra options might be there, and how to remove them
[12:00] <amincd> I'm a relative Ubuntu novice
[12:01] <TJ-> amincd: in general "sudo update-grub" that runs scripts under /etc/grub.d/ generates the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file, so what are the entries you're not liking? For the Ubuntu install, for other OSes on the same PC?
[12:01] <hicoleri> Is there any place where I can 'request' the building of binaries from particular sources? I want the binaries of aseprite (>1.0, not the repository version).
[12:01] <amincd> TJ-: for the Windows installation on the same PC
[12:02] <TJ-> hicoleri: the only option is to find someone who has built the packages you want in a Personal Package Archive (PPA) on Launchpad
[12:02] <MonkeyDust> hicoleri  do you want to develop apps? if yes, there's also #ubuntu-app-devel
[12:02] <hicoleri> TJ-:okay
[12:02] <amincd> TJ-: I'll have to reboot and take a photo of the grub screen to show you the extra boot options
[12:04] <amincd> A possibly related problem: I'm getting E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.  when trying: sudo apt-get install python-flup
[12:04] <hicoleri> MonkeyDust:I *can* program, but I only need the tools right now.
[12:05] <instigator> Hello is there a way to find out at what time a specific daemon rotates logs?
[12:06] <instigator> tried looking in /etc/lograte.d/ but didnt find a specific time
[12:06] <instigator> * /etc/logrotate.d
[12:06] <TJ-> amincd: just "pastebinit /boot/grub/grub.cfg"
[12:07] <bekks> instigator: So look at sudo crontab -l and see when logrotate is triggered.
[12:07] <pavlos> logrotate runs daily at 4:17am
[12:08] <lol> hi
[12:09] <amincd> TJ-: there's no sensitive information in the config file?
[12:09] <amincd> passwords, browsing history, etc?
[12:09] <amincd> jk about the second item..
[12:11] <lol> surre
[12:11] <lol> sure
[12:11] <lol> are you hacker
[12:11] <MonkeyDust> lol  this is ubuntu support
[12:18] <cfhowlett> lol topic for this channel is ubuntu support.
[12:18] <thinky> hi
[12:18] <thinky> i wanna dual boot with windows and ubuntu but grub2 doesnt work
[12:18] <thinky> how can i fix that?
[12:21] <thinky> is there anybody?
[12:22] <MonkeyDust> !details | thinky
[12:22] <thinky> i installed windows and after i installed ubuntu. but it seems grub2 doesnt work that it directly boots to windows without asking me which one to boot.
[12:23] <thinky> is it clear now?
[12:26] <sourcec0de> hey
[12:26] <harisankar> hi
[12:26] <TJ-> thinky: sounds like you have a UEFI based PC, and the default boot entry is set to Windows in the PC's boot manager
[12:27] <thinky> yes TJ-
[12:27] <harisankar> wassup ppl
[12:27] <TJ-> thinky: so, it is possible Ubuntu installer was unable to add its entry to the PC's boot menu due to Secure Boot, or a buggy firmware.
[12:27] <thinky> possible
[12:27] <thinky> now i booted from usb flash disk to ubuntu
[12:28] <thinky> ` Try ubuntu `
[12:28] <TJ-> thinky: there are also some manufacturers that ship known buggy UEFI firmware that fails to accept new boot menu entries
[12:28] <TJ-> thinky: what make/model is the PC?
[12:28] <thinky> i downloaded ubuntu iso from ubuntu website
[12:28] <thinky> my laptop is ThinkPad X201
[12:29] <anddam> I'm looking with interest at the upcoming Aquaris M10 Ubuntu Edition, couple questions: does USB cable charge the device? I'm looking at a "dock" solution where I can connect it home to my display with usb hub and have it charging while working
[12:29] <cfhowlett> anddam, go to the website for hardware specs.
[12:29] <anddam> also is there an "official" cover with builtin stand and an official keyboard?
[12:29] <anddam> I went already, thanks
[12:29] <Mathisen> thinky, then mount your ubuntu install to /mnt for this example then 1. for i in /sys /proc /run /dev; do sudo mount --bind "$i" "/mnt$i"; done  2. sudo chroot /mnt  3. update-grub  4. grub-install /dev/sd???? 5. update-grub
[12:30] <cfhowlett> then you know what we know
[12:30] <Mathisen> thinky, should work after that
[12:30] <anddam> oh, the cover is there
[12:30] <anddam> cfhowlett: well not necessarily, there could be someone with specific knowledge of that
[12:30] <anddam> but I see the point, this is a channel of end users
[12:30] <thinky> Mathisen:  what exactly should i type in terminal?
[12:31] <leptospire> Hey folks, I need some help with a script to download the latest local weather radar image
[12:31] <anddam> I wonder if there's a keyboard with builtin track, à-la-IBM trackpad
[12:31] <anddam> the concept is really nice
[12:31] <leptospire> I am new to bash scripting and I am struggling with the syntax around variables and combining them with strings
[12:31] <leptospire> Can anyone take a look and help me out? http://pastebin.com/hjW5dXME
[12:31] <anddam> another thing I wasn't able to figure is if the external display connected via HDMI is going to only support the builtin display size
[12:31] <cfhowlett> anddam, please discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:32] <Mathisen> thinky, show me output from " lsblk "
[12:32] <anddam> cfhowlett: didn't seem that OT but sure
[12:33] <anddam> leptospire: do you have an actual issue?
[12:33] <thinky> Mathisen: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15587573/
[12:34] <anddam> leptospire: if that script is supposed to be run standalone you should add a shebang line, the first one starting with #!
[12:34] <Mathisen> thinky, is sda4 your ubuntu install ?
[12:34] <MonkeyDust> thinky  now lsblk -f
[12:34] <thinky> yes Mathisen
[12:34] <leptospire> anndam, I have an issue. My script doesn't work as it should. I will add the #! to the start
[12:34] <Mathisen> thinky, > sudo mount /dev/sda4 /mnt
[12:34] <anddam> leptospire: I wouldn't recommend using bash as interpreter as much as sh, but if that's what you actually want or need #bash is quite active
[12:35] <Mathisen> thinky, then folow steps i wrote before
[12:35] <thinky> MonkeyDust: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15587579/
[12:35] <Mathisen> thinky, step nr.4 is what drive you want grub to be on
[12:35] <leptospire> anddam, I don't know the difference between bash and shell
[12:35] <anddam> leptospire: but that's just for having it working as "executable", if you're sourcing the script or passing it as argument to a shell that won't matter
[12:35] <Mathisen> thinky, so think before you do that
[12:35] <^Lestat> hi. I'm running an instance of ubuntu-php5 on docker (first try at docker). Im getting a 404. I know the server is running because I'm getting the 404. I have run ocker run -tid -p 80:80 -v ~/Dropbox/docker/my_sites:/var/www nimmis/apache-php5
[12:35] <thinky> Mathisen:
[12:35] <anddam> leptospire: well shell is a general term, bash is a program implementing a shell
[12:35] <^Lestat> ...to map the volume to my dropbox
[12:35] <leptospire> anndam I will be running this as an script through cron.
[12:36] <anddam> leptospire: also I find bash escaping a bit of a PITA to work with
[12:36] <thinky> Mathisen: 1. for i in /sys /proc /run /dev; do sudo mount --bind "$i" "/mnt$i"; done
[12:36] <thinky> ?
[12:36] <thinky> what s that?
[12:36] <Mathisen> thinky, yes
[12:37] <TJ-> leptospire: see http://paste.ubuntu.com/15587589/
[12:37] <thinky> what exactly should i write in terminal for 1) ?
[12:37] <TJ-> leptospire: I've corrected all the obvious problems but there may be errors in your logic :)
[12:37] <Mathisen> thinky, for i in /sys /proc /run /dev; do sudo mount --bind "$i" "/mnt$i"; done
[12:37] <^Lestat> so Im assuming theres a setting in my server instance that I neeed to set?
[12:38] <thinky> i did that Mathisen
[12:38] <leptospire> Hey TJ-, thanks! I will take a look and see if it works
[12:38] <TJ-> leptospire: as a stand-alone script it helps to add a first line that is #!/bin/sh    (called a she-bang line)
[12:38] <Mathisen> thinky, then >> sudo chroot /mnt
[12:38] <TJ-> leptospire: with a she-bang bin-format can automatically execute the script using the correct program
[12:38] <thinky> now Mathisen step 4
[12:39] <thinky> grub-install /dev/sd
[12:39] <anddam> TJ-: or will die trying
[12:39] <thinky> sd4 is the ubuntu partition
[12:39] <Mathisen> thinky, what drive do you want grub on ?
[12:39] <thinky> sd4 not?
[12:39] <thinky> 1-2 is for windows
[12:39] <thinky> 4 ubuntu
[12:39] <thinky> 5 swap area
[12:39] <thinky> no idea what is 3
[12:40] <Mathisen> thinky,  grub-install /dev/sda
[12:40] <thinky> just sda ?
[12:40] <Mathisen> yes
[12:40] <thinky> ok
[12:40] <^Lestat> Dunno how you guys remember all these commands. I guess I'm slowly learning them. Very slowly.
[12:40] <anddam> leptospire, TJ- : I admit I haven't yet got the logic of the script
[12:40] <thinky> root@ubuntu:/# grub-install /dev/sda Installing for i386-pc platform. Installation finished. No error reported.
[12:40] <yeats> ^Lestat: slowly is the only way to really learn imho
[12:40] <Mathisen> thinky, >> update-grub
[12:40] <Mathisen> again
[12:41] <thinky> ok
[12:41] <TJ-> anddam: grab the latest weather radar map
[12:41] <Mathisen> just in case
[12:41] <^Lestat> hehe. I break things, ask for help rinse. repeat.
[12:41] <thinky> done Mathisen
[12:41] <thinky> let me restart and check if boot works
[12:41] <Mathisen> thinky, now if everything has been done right grub should boot you on next reboot
[12:41] <anddam> TJ-: so it checks for a 2xx or 3xx HTTP status for every minute from 1 to 30 at once?
[12:41] <thinky> thx Mathisen i ll restart now
[12:41] <thinky> see u later
[12:41] <^Lestat> Good luck!
[12:42] <^Lestat> Im trying irssi on docker hehe. It's an experiment
[12:42] <TJ-> anddam: it's looking for an existing file (which are timestamped but not predictable) that was updated in the last 30 minutes
[12:42] <^Lestat> both the docker AND irssi
[12:42] <anddam> TJ-: I figure that means that the script is supposed to run every 30 minutes
[12:43] <anddam> I'd have run a single cron job per minute
[12:44] <MonkeyDust> ^Lestat  with lxd/lxc ?
[12:44] <thinky_> hı
[12:45] <thinky_> Mathisen: thanks a lot
[12:45] <thinky_> it works
[12:45] <Mathisen> thinky_, no worries , have a nice day
[12:45] <thinky_> thank you :)
[12:45] <MonkeyDust> Mathisen  +1
[12:45] <^Lestat> MonkeyDust: With docker
[12:45] <thinky_> yea
[12:45] <thinky_> i will install gnome
[12:45] <^Lestat> Dunno if that answers your question. I dont understand what lxd/lxc is
[12:46] <^Lestat> is there a "good" or preferred reference for cmdline commands?
[12:46] <MonkeyDust> lestat, it's hard to autocomplete your nick, with that sign in front ... iirc, docker is an extension to lxd/lxc
[12:47] <TJ-> ^Lestat: "man <command>"
[12:47] <^Lestat> Because docker examples often have me running eval() and such. But I don't know what it means. Im just copying.
[12:47] <cfhowlett> ^Lestat, man man
[12:48] <^Lestat> so 'man eval' ?
[12:50] <^Lestat> heh that doesnt work so well
[12:52] <^Lestat> wait. eval isn't a bash command is it. It's a unix?
[12:52] <TJ-> ^Lestat: eval is a built-in of the shell. Try "man bash" and the search for it in the SHELL BUILT INS section
[12:53] <^Lestat> so confusing.
[12:53] <TJ-> ^Lestat: 'man' uses the pager 'less' to present, so once you've got it started you can use all 'less' functions to search. E.g. type /^SHELL BUILT and press Enter and it'll grep for that regexp and take you there, then you can scroll down to 'eval'
[12:54] <leptospire> TJ- and anddam, thanks. I got my script working! http://pastebin.com/p4vwS36S
[12:55] <^Lestat> omg thats a lot to read
[12:56] <^Lestat> I think I should take a course just on the cmdline hehe
[12:56] <^Lestat> Of course I only need it the 6x/year when I need to tweak a server
[12:57] <^Lestat> I REALLY like that its so much faster than pointy clicky
[12:58] <Zaitzev> for some dumb reason, every time I right click the trash icon and select Empty Trash, it opens a new nautilus window as it empties..weird. Any fix on that?
[12:59] <clvx> Does anyone know if Xenial(16.04) will permit to encrypt full rootfs(not only /home) on installation?
[12:59] <clvx> This is a nice feature CentOS has it
[12:59] <TJ-> clvx: 14.04 does so I can't see why 16.04 won't
[12:59] <^Lestat> should I be in this channel or is there an ubuntu server channel
[12:59] <cfhowlett> !ubuntu+1 | clvx
[12:59] <TJ-> clvx: full disk encryption using LUKS/dm_crypt and LVM is used
[12:59] <Luke1922> I found a way to remove crackling on thinkpad l440 if anyone is interested
[12:59] <cfhowlett> !server
[12:59] <clvx> TJ-: 14.04 only encrypts /home directory
[12:59] <yeats> ^Lestat: on a machine you can break without problems, just start running commands to see what they actually do - then the man pages will start making sense
[13:00] <TJ-> clvx: I thought the latest 14.04.x ISOs offered FDE?
[13:00] <^Lestat> hehe can do...gotta love vm's ;)
[13:00] <TJ-> clvx: certainly all recent releases have done
[13:01] <clvx> TJ-: interesting, I'm gonna make a double check.. I've been doing dist-upgrade since 14.04, probably this is one of the things of how good this distro has achieved.
[13:02] <TJ-> clvx: I notice on the wiki it also says since 12.10  Ubiquity GUI installer has a "Encrypt the new Ubuntu installation for security" checkbox
[13:03] <^Lestat> I kinda like this irssi.
[13:03] <clvx> TJ-: I'm gonna spin a vm and check.. thanks a lot.
[13:04] <The_Fly> ^Lestat: irssi is nice
[13:05] <^Lestat> I'm more used to a gui/ pidgin
[13:05] <^Lestat> all thumbs baby
[13:05] <The_Fly> it can get annoying when you want to connect to multiple servers /connect vs /server
[13:05] <The_Fly> but you can configure for autojoin etc.
[13:05] <TJ-> clvx: scroll down about 3/4 of the page for a screenshot for 12.10: http://www.upubuntu.com/2012/09/how-to-install-ubuntu-1210-quantal.html
[13:06] <The_Fly> behind `screen` and running in the cloud it's also nice
[13:06] <MonkeyDust> i also use screen /irssi
[13:07] <TJ-> I find weechat more flexible, not sure why
[13:08] <^Lestat> I wonder if I can split the channels in my iterm
[13:09] <^Lestat> oh soo much better that opt+arrow to change windows
[13:14] <^Lestat> this is hawt

[13:53] <TJ-> keon: which ubuntu release do you have, and which kernel version ("uname -r") ?
[13:56] <TJ-> meridel: "xrandr -q" will show you all the detected outputs and modes/status
[13:57] <keon> TJ:  i got  Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS and my Kernel version is 4.2.0-34-generic
[13:57] <TJ-> keon: did you follow the instructions to download and install the updated firmware?
[13:57] <keon> TJ: Yes i did
[13:59] <Guest90608> ciao
[13:59] <keon> TJ: I ran sudo lshw -C network  and it gave me *network UNCLAIMED so it is not properly installed right?
[13:59] <TJ-> keon: that means the kernel ath10k module hasn't claimed the device. Can you show me the result of "pastebinit <( lspci -nnk )" ?
[14:00] <Abhijit> in which group i have to add my newlly created non root user, so that he can download files from internet?
[14:00] <Abhijit> 14.04
[14:01] <keon> TJ:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588460/ here you go
[14:01] <TJ-> Abhijit: all users should be able to do that
[14:01] <keon> TJ: the card version is correct
[14:01] <Abhijit> TJ-, i want to run passenger-config build-native-support which works as root but as non root user it says cant download 404
[14:02] <TJ-> Abhijit: HTTP 404 error means "page not found", so that suggests the URL it is trying to fetch is wrong
[14:02] <TJ-> Abhijit: the 404 error is returned by the web server
[14:02] <Abhijit> yeah.
[14:05] <TJ-> keon: OK, if you do "modinfo -F firmware ath10k_pci" you should see a list of paths/files the kernel driver recognises. Those paths are relative to /lib/firmware/  - check those files you downloaded match those path/filenames
[14:05] <kdfms> hello, how can I put the close window button on the right?
[14:05] <TJ-> keon: assuming they do, then try "sudo modprobe ath10k_pci" and then "tail /var/log/kern.log" to see if the module loaded correctly, or reported a problem
[14:12] <keon> TJ: when i do "modinfo -F firmware ath10k_pci", i see http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588592/ I suspect that QCA988X, which was already there when i installed ubuntu, might be a problem? the following two commands reported problem http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588607/
[14:15] <TJ-> keon: that last looks like the Wifi has started. "cfg80211" is the Wifi region configuration tool :)
[14:17] <TJ-> keon: so, try "iwconfig" see if you now have a WiFi interface?
[14:19] <keon> TJ: I am getting this http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588662/
[14:20] <keon> TJ: but I cannot scan wifi
[14:20] <TJ-> keon: that was "ifconfig" not "iwconfig"
[14:20] <TJ-> keon: 'iw' is for Wireless
[14:20] <keon> TJ: eth0      no wireless extensions. lo        no wireless extensions.
[14:20] <keon> TJ: :(
[14:21] <TJ-> keon: OK, so let's see the end of the log file. "pastebinit <( tail -n 500 /var/log/kern.log )"
[14:22] <yummy> ....
[14:22] <keon> TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588689/
[14:23] <TJ-> keon: you did do "sudo modprobe ath10k_pci" ?
[14:23] <keon> TJ: yea but it doesn't return anything
[14:24] <TJ-> keon: check if it is loaded: "lsmod | grep ath10k"
[14:24] <keon> TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588814/
[14:26] <TJ-> keon: so the module has loaded. Let's check if it claimed the device: "lspci -nnk -d 168c:0041"
[14:29] <keon> TJ: I think it is loaded http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588862/
[14:29] <TJ-> keon: no, it'd say "Kernel driver in use: ath10k_pci"
[14:30] <keon> TJ: Oh,
[14:30] <kdfms> how can I put the close window button on the right?
[14:32] <TJ-> keon: ahhhhhhhh! can I just noticed that for that 4.2.0 kernel that "modinfo -F alias ath10k_pci" does *not* show the 0041 device
[14:32] <TJ-> keon: confirm you have the same thing: "pastebinit <( uname -r; modinfo -F alias ath10k_pci )"
[14:33] <keon> TJ: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588884/
[14:33] <keon> TJ: so I should upgrade kernel?
[14:34] <TJ-> keon: you see the cryptic codes? the aliases? you can decode them into Vendor:Device because there is v{xxxxxxxx} d{xxxxxxxx} and you only have 168C:003E and 003C claimed
[14:34] <pauljw> kdfms, you can do that with the Unity Tweak Tool that is available in the Ubuntu Software Center
[14:37] <keon> TJ: all i see is this -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588884/
[14:38] <keon> TJ: I did not understand what you just mentioned, could you describe it a little more? ;/
[14:38] <TJ-> keon: lets tell the driver to bind to the device's ID shall we? "echo '168c 0041' | sudo dd of=/sys/bus/pci/drivers/ath10k_pci/new_id "
[14:39] <TJ-> keon: now do "tail -n 20 /var/log/kern.log" and tell me if you see any ath10k messages
[14:39] <TJ-> keon: if you do, check again for an interface with "iwconfig"
[14:40] <keon> TJ: oh god i think there was an error http://paste.ubuntu.com/15588940/
[14:41] <keon> TJ: iwconfig still shows the same
[14:41] <keon> TJ: no wireless extentions
[14:41] <TJ-> keon: yes, so it isn't sufficient to tell the 4.2.0 driver to recognise the device's ID; you will need a later kernel
[14:42] <TJ-> keon: I'd suggest manually adding in the 16.04 kernel for now
[14:42] <kdfms> unity-tweak cannot change that option
[14:42] <keon> TJ: gotcha I will upgrade my kernel and try it again
[14:42] <kdfms> am i stuck with that stupidity?
[14:42] <keon> TJ: Thanks for helping me out, I really appreciate it
[14:43] <TJ-> keon it seems that bug report about working with the 4.2 kernel isn't accurate
[14:44] <TJ-> keon: if you wait a couple of minutes I'll give you the URLs to pull the xenial/16.04 kernels from. What architecture are you using, amd64/64-bit ?
[14:45] <CrackerJack> keon nikolov@ubuntu-ivan:~$ inxi -F
[14:45] <CrackerJack> System:    Host: ubuntu-ivan Kernel: 4.6.0-040600rc1-generic x86_64 (64 bit)
[14:45] <CrackerJack>            Desktop: Unity 7.4.0  Distro: Ubuntu 16.04 xenial
[14:45] <CrackerJack> work
[14:45] <keon> TJ: yup amd64
[14:45] <CrackerJack> rc 4.6
[14:48] <pauljw> kdfms, i guess, i never actually tried until now and see that it doesn't work.  sorry, if there's another way, i'm not aware of it.
[14:48] <TJ-> keon: this should pull the .deb packages in locally: "wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-{image,image-extra,headers}-4.4.0-17-generic_4.4.0-17.33_amd64.deb"
[14:48] <TJ-> keon: do it in a new directory: e.g. "mkdir ~/Downloads/kernels; cd ~/Downloads/kernels"
[14:49] <TJ-> keon: then, after they're arrived you can simply install them with "sudo dpkg -Ri ." (don't miss that final 'dot' )
[14:49] <Rhoarin> hello, how to i convert .bin to .iso?
[14:49] <artmix> hello
[14:49] <TJ-> Rhoarin: you mean rename a file, or alter the file format?
[14:50] <Rhoarin> TJ-: alter it
[14:50] <artmix> Help me please, how to translate the interface pidgin ?
[14:50] <TJ-> Rhoarin: it would depend on what the .bin is. .iso implies an ISO9660 file-system
[14:51] <keon> TJ: ok doing it
[14:51] <TJ-> keon: hopefully I didn't give you any typos :)
[14:51] <Rhoarin> TJ-: is there any convert i could try?
[14:52] <TJ-> Rhoarin: not that I know of. As I said it depends what the .bin is. If you simply want it inside an ISO9660 file-system then any CD/DVD ISO image creator tool can do that
[14:52] <zykotick9> Rhoarin: be aware, .bin/.cue-type images _can_ contain more and/or different types in information than a .iso can...
[14:53] <Rhoarin> TJ-: zykotick9: i just wanna try Chrome OS on VM and it comes as .bin file
[14:53] <Rhoarin> i'm on Ubu 15.10
[14:53] <TJ-> Rhoarin: maybe it's a raw (mass storage) image ? best to check out the Chrome docs
[14:54] <TJ-> Rhoarin: "file <filename.bin>" might tell you more
[14:54] <Rhoarin> TJ-: ok i'm checking
[14:54] <teriiudfnd> Is there a way to broadcast wireless from ubuntu that appears as wifi, not ad-hoc?
[14:55] <TJ-> teriiudfnd: yes, if the wifi chipset/firmware supports Managed mode, Network Manager can configure it for 'connection sharing' a.k.a hostap
[14:55] <Rhoarin> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15589043/
[14:56] <TJ-> Rhoarin: good news, no need to convert it. It's a raw 'hard disk' image. just configure it as a raw device on the VM guest and boot from it
[14:56] <Rhoarin> TJ-: sweet i'm gonna try
[14:58] <TJ-> keon: You'll need one additional file I didn't spot earlier: "wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-headers-4.4.0-17_4.4.0-17.33_all.deb"
[14:59] <TJ-> keon: I hope those URLs are OK for you; when I posted them I see them with the http://... part duplicated twice!
[14:59] <keon> TJ: yea I figured that out
[15:00] <jaco> Hi, is it possible to hide auto-mounted drive in the Unity launcher?
[15:00] <TJ-> keon: strange, seems my client is treating those /'s as a regular expression search/replace :D
[15:00] <odroid> ytt
[15:02] <keon> TJ: do I restart after installing it?
[15:02] <TJ-> keon: when installing the kernel packages they should cause an update-grub to add it to the boot menu, and it should become the new default as its the latest version, then you reboot
[15:04] <keon> TJ: yup I think the installation was successful I'll reboot
[15:06] <keon> TJ: oh my god it works now
[15:06] <keon> TJ: Thank you so much :)
[15:06] <TJ-> keon: great news :)
[15:08] <keon> TJ: you saved my life
[15:08] <TJ-> a little over-dramatic, methinks :D
[15:09] <effectnet> hi how do i start a term in ubuntu?
[15:09] <TJ-> effectnet: from the GUI? usually Ctrl+Alt+T
[15:09] <effectnet> heh thanks
[15:09] <TJ-> effectnet: or type "term" in the dash/menu
[15:18] <xothed> Hi i have problem with pipelight after adding repo
[15:18] <drellok> Hi guys, I have a HDD where write speed for ex4 is considerable slower than for ext2, i.e. for ext4 I get 14-15MB/s where for ext2 I get 60-70MB/s.. any help?
[15:19] <xothed> and sudo update
[15:19] <xothed> still doesnt see pipelight
[15:19] <xothed> to be installed
[15:19] <xothed> Xenial Xerus 16.04
[15:19] <effectnet> i have to install this video driver with no x server running, how do i do that?
[15:19] <artmix> hello
[15:20] <TJ-> drellok: is it a spinning disk, or sold-state?
[15:20] <artmix> 1
[15:20] <TJ-> drellok: remember that ext3/4 use a journal log for updates, which would have some impact, but not to the degree you've described
[15:20] <drellok> TJ-: it is a spinning drive, HGST Travelstar 7K1000
[15:20] <xothed> any idea why I cant install pipeligt
[15:21] <TJ-> drellok: so not a TRIM issue then
[15:21] <TJ-> drellok: how is the disk connected to the PC? SATA? USB? something else?
[15:21] <gvo> I have in my /etc/networks/interfaces file this line dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 127.0.0.1 however the /etc/resolv.conf file is a link to /etc/run/resolvconf/resolv.conf and contains nameserver 208.93.118.170 plus a warning to not edit the file.
[15:22] <drellok> TJ-: SATA
[15:22] <TJ-> drellok: the only thing I can think of is that the writes to the ext4 are small random writes, requiring lots of head seeking
[15:23] <drellok> TJ-: it is a dd if=/dev/zero ... conv=fdatasync
[15:24] <drellok> TJ-: full command - dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/sda1/test2 bs=1M count=100 conv=fdatasync
[15:24] <TJ-> drellok: hmmm, I'm not sure then. ext4 has a reputation for being very fast, generally
[15:24] <drellok> TJ-: it is the same with ext3 and vfat, I tested it
[15:25] <xothed> Hi i have problem with pipelight on Ubuntu 16.04. Cannot get package after adding repo
[15:25] <drellok> TJ-: only ext2 seems to be fast there
[15:26] <auronandace> !ubuntu+1 | xothed
[15:26] <xothed> ok tnx
[15:27] <TJ-> drellok: well the big difference is ext4 will by default have a journal. maybe using dumpe2fs on both may show some obvious difference
[15:27] <TJ-> drellok: does the drive use Advanced Format (large sectors)
[15:28] <drellok> TJ-: yes, it does.. logical sector size 512, physical - 4096
[15:28] <compdoc> me thinks Advanced Format means smaller sectors
[15:28] <TJ-> drellok: if so, then if the partition/file-system is not aligned correctly on a physical sector boundary, that could halve the speed
[15:28] <compdoc> ooops, nm
[15:28] <TJ-> drellok: use gdisk or fdisk or parted to check the alignment of the test partition
[15:29] <drellok> TJ-: that was my thought too, I've created it with fdisk -cu /dev/sda, fdisk showed no warnings regarding the alignment
[15:29] <TJ-> drellok: check the starting sector of the partition: "sudo parted /dev/sda unit s print"
[15:29] <drellok> TJ-: start 2048s
[15:30] <TJ-> drellok: is it a multiple of 8 (512-byte sectors) ?
[15:30] <TJ-> drellok: OK, that is correct then
[15:30] <drellok> TJ-: should I try 4096 maybe?
[15:31] <TJ-> drellok: that was my best guess! can't think what else could cause such a difference, unless the target file-system is heavily used and fragmented
[15:32] <drellok> TJ-: it is freshly created, for the test purposes.. nothing else uses that disk
[15:32] <drellok> TJ-: I will test starting sector of 4096 just for the sake of the test
[15:35] <drellok> TJ-: well no, it didn't help
[15:45] <lesley> Can I make the "file" menu be on the window not on top of the screen?

[15:56] <Birchy> why is no.archive.ubuntu.com routed to some phishy site?
[15:56] <AlexPortable> I'm looking for a touch interface for debian/ubuntu, I've tried Unity but it's too heavy for my system. Is there anything more lightweight?
[15:56] <popey> Birchy: ooh, that's not good
[15:57] <Birchy> it gives off bad SSL certificates and all
[15:57] <popey> Birchy: have told mirror admins in #ubuntu-mirrors
[15:58] <Birchy> nice
[15:59] <nicomachus> lesley: I was wrong? about what?
[15:59] <kdfms> why would mirror use https at all?
[15:59] <kdfms> nicomachus: unity-tweak cannot disable menubar hijacking
[16:00] <nicomachus> lesley: and also, please use family-friendly language.
[16:00] <TJ-> mirror doesn't; the admins have misconfigured the HTTP side and its redirecting internally
[16:00] <lesley> It's not the tweak tool.
[16:01] <ioria> lesley,  try System Settings -> Appearance -> Behavior
[16:01] <lesley> Well
[16:01] <lesley> Guess how I found out that it is not the tweak tool.
[16:05] <nicomachus> no thanks. so long as you found it.
[16:08] <viju> Hi, is there any SAFE ubuntu torrents? I am looking for 64 bit version of LTS
[16:09] <nicomachus> viju: yes, see here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads
[16:09] <nicomachus> Under the "BitTorrent" section.
[16:09] <nicomachus> Those are all safe. But--as always--you should verify the MD5sum after downloading.
[16:09] <viju> Okay, when is 16.04 going to be launched?
[16:10] <viju> I am eagerly waiting for it
[16:10] <kdfms> 21st
[16:10] <popey> end of april
[16:16] <asbr> I am having trouble with sound on raspberry ubuntu mate: very often I'll get a 'hisssing' sound. And always if trying to listen to netradio in firefox. I do not have these problems in rasbian. Where can I set up proper sound settings?
[16:21] <kdfms> this channel is quite dead, isn't it?
[16:22] <xangua> do you have a support question?
[16:22] <kdfms> for the last 2 hours, yes
[16:23] <xangua> !patience
[16:23] <jackcom> how much storage must i use on ubuntu?
[16:24] <BluesKaj> 2 hrs is not repeating his question quickly :-)
[16:24] <popey> kdfms: what's your question?
[16:24] <kdfms> popey: to move window buttons to the right
[16:24] <ioria> kdfms, on Unity i think is hardcoded
[16:24] <xangua> kdfms: you don't, in Unity
[16:25] <popey> depends on the release of ubuntu
[16:25] <kdfms> so gnome shell is th eonly option?
[16:25] <popey> no, there's a lot of options
[16:25] <popey> that's one
[16:25] <ioria> kdfms, any other i guess
[16:26] <popey> Ubuntu MATE is another, KDE, XFCE etc
[16:26] <BluesKaj> kde/plasma-desktop is an option
[16:26] <viju> But I think you'll get used to it. There's no such standard requirement as the windows control buttons should only be on the upper right side.
[16:26] <phanes_> so I bought a new nic,  Intel 82541pi R5, after setting static ip and netmask and gateway it now says I am connected, however I can not reach even the router with a ping.  it is the same issue I had with the realtek so is there a nic that exists that Ubuntu will not blame on drivers?
[16:27] <phanes_> using this fine in fedora just an hour ago
[16:27] <phanes_> same for win
[16:28] <popey> phanes_: interesting, not had an issue with Intel NICs before...
[16:28] <popey> phanes_: do the kernel versions differ between the distros you tried?
[16:28] <popey> phanes_: what version of Ubuntu you on?
[16:29] <phanes_> I'm on Wiley 15.10
[16:29] <popey> hm
[16:29] <phanes_> kernel versions certainly differ
[16:29] <phanes_> this release was tested right?
[16:30] <ioria> phanes_, ping 8.8.8.8 ? no dice ?
[16:31] <popey> phanes_: not with every possible device combination, no.
[16:31] <phanes_> I'm not even really sure what to do here.  can't ping 8.8.8.8 or even the router, 192.168.0.1 dest host unreachable
[16:31] <popey> phanes_: what is in "dmesg | grep eth" ? or maybe grep em?
[16:31] <popey> do you have multiple network cards in it phanes_ ?
[16:31] <popey> there's a known routing bug I have seen
[16:32] <phanes_> it is finding the I face and renaming from eth0 to enp4s6
[16:32] <phanes_> I too suspect routing bug
[16:32] <popey> is it a desktop?
[16:32] <popey> as opposed to a server with no gui
[16:32] <ioria> phanes_, Network manager or using /etc/network/interfaces ?
[16:33] <phanes_> desktop
[16:33] <popey> ok, and how many network cards?
[16:33] <phanes_> net man and also ifconfig and route
[16:34] <phanes_> 1 network card.  onboard realtek disabled in bios
[16:34] <popey> hm
[16:34] <phanes_> I want ipv4 addressing on LAN
[16:35] <BluesKaj> ip4 is usuallydefault
[16:35] <phanes_> so ipv6 is on ignore and ipv4 is set static
[16:35] <phanes_> address is on same subnet as router
[16:35] <phanes_> netmask is matched
[16:35] <BluesKaj> it should also be set to static in the network interfaces file iirc
[16:35] <popey> you don't need to maintain /etc/network/interfaces at all on a desktop
[16:36] <popey> that's what network manager is for
[16:36] <popey> but if you do, get the settings right. :)
[16:36] <phanes_> I just don't see it
[16:36] <popey> phanes_: maybe pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces, and the output of "route" ?
[16:36] <zxd> Having glitches with intel gfx driver , if I set nomodeset kernel parameter it fixes it, but X performance becomes slow
[16:36] <BluesKaj> in the old days we used to remove NM for a static setting, guess times have cjanged
[16:37] <BluesKaj> changed even
[16:37] <popey> not really. you never needed to do that
[16:37] <popey> if you maintain static in /etc/network/interfaces, nm just ignores the device
[16:37] <popey> if you don't maintain it in interfaces, nm manages it
[16:37] <BluesKaj> well ,iot worked fine without NM, and didn't with NM
[16:39] <phanes_> how do I disable nm

[16:41] <EriC^^> metroins: maybe it's in the current dir
[16:41] <metroins> EriC^^: Nevermind.  I had a file named that in the folder by accident.  Thank you for your help
[16:42] <metroins> EriC^^: Yea, I wasn't paying attention.
[16:42] <EriC^^> metroins: oh ok
[16:43] <|\n> i'm in desperate since currently i experience issues and i didn't touch qnything related to boot process, for now i can only boot using upstart option
[16:44] <BluesKaj> phanes_, you need your network card , just disable network-manager
[16:45] <ioria> |\n, apt-cache rdepends plymouth
[16:45] <phanes_> disabled
[16:45] <phanes_> can someone link me to that interfaces file configuration
[16:46] <MuNcH_Marcel> I could really use some help with a really weird issue. My password is not working, and I am %100 certain that I am not remembering it wrong
[16:46] <|\n> ioria, looks very close to my current situation however i migrated a long time ago with release upgrade and i really didn't touch anything, with systemd it waits for plymouth boot infinitely, but is it normal that cryptsetup depends on that?
[16:46] <EriC^^> MuNcH_Marcel: try ctrl+alt+f1 and try to login, alt+f7 brings you back to the gui
[16:46] <MuNcH_Marcel> This is happening after a Windows 10 upgrade
[16:46] <|\n> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1432265
[16:46] <ioria> |\n,  seems so
[16:47] <ernold> I've mounted an ecryptfs-encrypted drive using ecryptfs-recover-private, and can see the home directory mounted but can't access it. What do I need to do now? The readme says run ecryptfs-mount-private, but this gives me an error (Encrypted private directory is not setup properly), even when I run the command as a user with the same old name/password
[16:47] <phanes_> munch mount in rescue drive, remove hash from etc passwd done
[16:47] <MuNcH_Marcel> EriC: ok, I'll try it
[16:47] <|\n> "Plymouth is an application that runs very early in the boot process (even before the root filesystem is mounted!) that provides a graphical boot animation while the boot process happens in the background." how is that related to cryptsetup at all ioria ?
 Rescue drive?
[16:49] <ioria> |\n,  idk exactly, but if you think that with fde you'll be asked for your passphrase during boot ...
[16:49] <phanes_> OK so this interfaces file uses some Ubuntu specific Language instead of an established working standard, where can I find config details?
[16:50] <MuNcH_Marcel> EriC^^: Didn't seem to work
[16:50] <phanes_> I am on my phone for irc can someone please link me I need this link up
[16:50] <EriC^^> MuNcH_Marcel: maybe the password is changed, or maybe the keyboard layout is different
[16:51] <EriC^^> MuNcH_Marcel: try typing the password as a login to see what letters you get
[16:51] <MuNcH_Marcel> All the correct letters and numbers show up
[16:52] <EriC^^> MuNcH_Marcel: ok, boot into recovery mode and type mount -o remount,rw /

[16:52] <EriC^^> then type passwd <your user> and change your password
[16:52] <EriC^^> MuNcH_Marcel: after you boot into recovery mode press on drop to root shell, then type the stuff

[16:56] <phanes_> it has auto lo in there, that doesn't sound right
[16:56] <explosive> what options? MuNcH_Marcel
[16:56] <popey> phanes_: thats normal, the default
[16:57] <popey> phanes_: the /etc/network/interfaces file is well documented and a standard layout
[16:57] <phanes_> yeah and realtek drivers are buggy too
[16:57] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: delete, keep tokens, status
[16:57] <|\n> how can i remove plymouth without removing cryptsetup package? since this list of bugs is something i can't survive with my instance on daily basis https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/ and cryptsetup package depends on plymouth somehow
[16:58] <explosive> passwd <your user> gives you that MuNcH_Marcel ?
[16:58] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: Yes
[16:58] <wellick> When I do "ls -a" besides the files I also get "." and "..", why is that?
[16:58] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: that's really odd
[16:58] <explosive> wellick: those are links to the current dir and parent dir
[16:59] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: try pressing status
[16:59] <puff> apport-gtk is at 100% CPU and bogging my machine down.  What's going on?
[16:59] <puff> And can I safely kill that process?
[16:59] <popey> puff: something crashed and it's writing a crash dump out in /var/crash usually
[17:00] <popey> puff: yeah, if you're not bothered about uploading the crash
[17:00] <puff> That is, if I kill that process, will it cause problems?
[17:00] <popey> just kill it
[17:00] <puff> popey: It's been stuck at 100% for 20-30 minutes now.
[17:00] <popey> it happens sometimes
[17:00] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: The same thing comes up. Shows the command I just entered, and underneath shows all the different options for passwd
[17:00] <popey> puff: kill it then remove everything in /var/crash
[17:00] <puff> Hm, and gdb is also at 100%.  I have no idea what would have run gdb.
[17:00] <popey> puff: for a clean start
[17:00] <wellick> explosive: thanks
[17:01] <popey> puff: teh pop up which tells you something crashed runs apport and gdb
[17:01] <gde33> how do I find/gather all images on/in a disk/folder?
[17:01] <puff> Ah.
[17:01] <puff> So I can safely kill gdb too.
[17:01] <phanes_> these instructions are bad
[17:02] <|\n> well i guess this explains everything https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1386005
[17:02] <Mathisen> gde33, >> find . -name '*' -exec file {} \; | grep -o -P '^.+: \w+ image'
[17:02] <|\n> alongside with this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/556372
[17:02] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: what does grep <your user> /etc/shadow /etc/passwd show?
[17:02] <popey> phanes_: there's very little you need in the file. only 4 or so lines.
[17:02] <gde33> Mathisen: ah nice, I would prefer an application to find/organize images
[17:02] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: dont paste here the hash
[17:03] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: cause it can be cracked
[17:03] <popey> phanes_: http://askubuntu.com/questions/214170/whats-the-default-etc-network-interfaces is very clear
[17:03] <puff> popey: Do I need to restart apport?
[17:03] <popey> puff: no
[17:04] <puff> popey:  so apport is still running, right, all I killed was the gtk process that was the apport popup? (and the gdb process that apport started about the crash)?

[17:05] <ubuntu> hello
[17:05] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: what about /etc/shadow?

[17:06] <Guest36641> Barcelona - R. Madrid? :)
[17:06] <popey> phanes_: right, and you could provide us with some detail, rather than a commentary
[17:06] <ioria> lesley, ctrl+win+arraow
[17:06] <popey> phanes_: what's working, what isn't? Pastebins ask requested
[17:06] <puff> popey: Thanks, much better now.
[17:06] <popey> np
[17:07] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: I'm just using grep Username /etc/shadow, and it's not showing anything
[17:07] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: aha
[17:07] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: that'd be the problem then
[17:07] <phanes_> OK I'll say it again.  I can't even ping my router. I can ping loopvack
[17:07] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: is your home dir still there? try ls /home
[17:08] <phanes_> I have an up assigned statically in I face file default gw is set, nm is disabled
[17:08] <MuNcH_Marcel> Doesn't give me an output either
[17:08] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: ls /home ?
[17:08] <phanes_> route shows default gw
[17:08] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: Correct. Doesn't show me anything either
[17:08] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: that sucks
[17:09] <MuNcH_Marcel> So my home directory got deleted?
[17:09] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: do you have lots of stuff, or do you have stuff backed up?
[17:09] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive:..... No
[17:09] <explosive> no to what
[17:09] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: To having my stuff backed up
[17:10] <explosive> does the stuff matter?
[17:10] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: Yes. I need to put in my hours or I won't get paid
[17:10] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: do you have separate home partition by any chance?
[17:10] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: No.
[17:10] <explosive> ok
[17:10] <|\n> how can i remove plymouth without removing cryptsetup package? since this list of bugs is something i can't survive with my instance on daily basis https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/ and cryptsetup package depends on plymouth somehow

[17:11] <explosive> !undelete | MuNcH_Marcel
[17:11] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: try photorec
[17:12] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: for now, boot a live usb and work on the system, the more you use it the more your stuff will might disappear
[17:12] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: OK, thanks. BTW, what is the purpose of /etc/shadow?
[17:12] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: it saves a hash of the password
[17:13] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: Did me upgrading to Windows 10 cause this?
[17:13] <MuNcH_Marcel> Only happened afterwards
[17:13] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: once you get your stuff back, create a new user with adduser , and add him to the sudo group with usermod -aG sudo,adm <user>
[17:13] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: no, unless you do have a separate home partition and it messed with it
[17:13] <explosive> cat /etc/fstab should show that
[17:14] <phanes_> I am so frustrated.
[17:14] <phanes_> I need this to work
[17:14] <phanes_> this was a mistake
[17:15] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: Fstab showing /home on sdb3
[17:15] <|\n> phanes_, okay just to clear it up, if you will try `service networking restart`, `iptables -F`, `killall dhclient`, `service nm(not sure how its called in there?) stop`, `ifconfig eth0 blah.sub.net up`, `route add default gw yourrouterhere`, `echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8">/etc/resolv.conf` it still doesn't work?

[17:19] <phanes_> driver issue with realtek that seems to only impact Ubuntu.  let's not pretend it's the nice given I just had it working on vanilla install of fedora just to download the ISO.  preparing logs and then trying your command soup

[18:27] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: so all your data is there, just seems to be a user name issue
[18:27] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: really?
[18:28] <isko> yep
[18:28] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: after you run that command check that the stuff is in /home/user and then create a new username to login i guess
[18:28] <kdfms> interesting, it was turned on. now it's off, the topbar has gray text but rhythmbox still have to menus
[18:28] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: yeah
[18:28] <isko> bhaeth
[18:28] <isko> eth
[18:28] <isko> eth
[18:28] <isko> aert
[18:28] <isko> bhat
[18:28] <isko> bhAth6a4ujAETJ
[18:28] <mattttttttb> mattttttttb: Could you boot with the HDMI, run  dmesg --follow > dmesg.txt then connect the cga
[18:28] <mattttttttb> kallo82: *vga
[18:29] <kallo82> when i connect the vga connector i can do anything it freezes and gives blank page
[18:30] <kallo82> mattttttttb: black screen
[18:30] <kallo82> mattttttttb: then i have to hold the power button to restart
[18:30] <mattttttttb> kallo82: But you can boot with HDMI
[18:30] <kallo82> mattttttttb: yes i can boot with HDMI
[18:31] <mattttttttb> kallo82: So boot with that then pipe the output of dmesg
[18:31] <kallo82> mattttttttb: so after i boot i open up the terminal and write that command and see the pastebin the output ?
[18:31] <kallo82> ok
[18:31] <mattttttttb> kallo82: yeah it will save it dmesg.txt then you can pastebin that
[18:31] <kdfms> now things are getting weird
[18:32] <kdfms> i disabled a global menu bar and restarder the app, but it still has no menu bar
[18:32] <MonkeyDust> kdfms  yes, that's really very weird ... try logout/in
[18:33] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: Would the command be different from what I would run in terminal?
[18:33] <MuNcH_Marcel> Running it from recovery as root?
[18:34] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: you could do it from right here
[18:34] <explosive> sudo adduser <username>
[18:34] <squinty> kdfms,  not running 16.04 by any chance are you?  no menu bar in rthymbox included in 16.04 here either
[18:35] <kdfms> squinty: no, it is old rhythmbox without a cog button
[18:35] <zxd> what is review and queue ?   in linux-3.16.y.z-queue/ and linux-3.16.y.z-review
[18:35] <zxd> ?
[18:35] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: also usermod -aG sudo,adm <user> to add the user to sudo
[18:35] <squinty> kdfms,  ahh  ok  just a thought
[18:36] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: heh...... saying please enter a username matching the regular expression configured via NAME_REGEX[_SYSTEM] configuration variable
[18:37] <MuNcH_Marcel> Is that normal?
[18:37] <zxd> http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[18:37] <dkslw> i relogged but ehythmbox still have no menus when compiz is used

[18:38] <explosive> what was the username?
[18:38] <squinty> kdfms,  fwiw, logging out and restarting app after logging back in the menubar is now there

[18:39] <dkslw> i logged out but still nothing
[18:39] <dkslw> why doesn't the global menu work?
[18:39] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: try without the capital M
[18:40] <Mo0O> what do you have in your /etc/apt/sources.list to enable patner repo?
[18:40] <zxd> mattttttttb: so which is newer review or queue  not very clear
[18:40] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: that worked

[18:41] <phanes_> 169.254.* is a completely foreign place to me, i dont know where that comes from
[18:41] <dkslw> well i killed compiz and RB has a Gnome App menu
[18:41] <kallo82> mattttttttb: http://pastebin.com/NY3kNSU5
[18:41] <dkslw> what do I need to install for gnome app menus to work in unity?
[18:41] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: there's a bunch others you need to add for default ubuntu
[18:42] <kallo82> mattttttttb: Now i should connect the VGA ?
[18:42] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: these are the groups i have in my ubuntu 4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),108(lpadmin),124(sambashare)
[18:42] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: give me a bunch of other groups?
[18:42] <mattttttttb> kallo82: sure, then post the dmesg again
[18:43] <squinty> Mo0O,   make sure you have the multiverse repo enabled   Software and Updates  toggle it on there
[18:43] <kallo82> mattttttttb: the laptop will freeze, so i print it again after i reboot ?
[18:43] <mattttttttb> kallo82: yep
[18:43] <kallo82> ok
[18:45] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: I think I'm just going to get rid of Ubuntu
[18:45] <explosive> lol
[18:45] <MuNcH_Marcel> Appreciate the help though
[18:45] <explosive> why though?
[18:46] <MuNcH_Marcel> explosive: at this point I saved some emails by archiving on the Thunderbird and I can't get to them even with this new username
[18:46] <Mo0O> squinty: same error with multiverse repo enable in /etc/apt/sources.list, I can't access to "Software and Updates" because it's a docker container
[18:46] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: oh ok, type sudo nano /etc/shadow
[18:46] <explosive> and add a line for the old username using the new one ( so they'll have the same password )
[18:47] <Mo0O> I guess the error came from the partner repo, but I don't know what to put to enable those repo, and can't find any documentation on the subjet
[18:47] <explosive> MuNcH_Marcel: copy the same line, except change the username to the old one

[18:51] <johnnyCache> ok, will look at that
[18:51] <explosive> nice nick btw

[18:52] <johnnyCache> let me look at that link you gave and I will get back, thanks for the info !
[18:52] <mattttttttb> kallo82: Do you have any specific drivers for intel-gfx?

[18:53] <kallo82> mattttttttb: How do i obtain that ? the OS is preinstalled by dell

[18:54] <kallo82> yes i did, had many issues and then had to update the kernel to 14.02 instead of 13.9 to solve some issues after the update
[18:54] <Mo0O> ioria: this is what you have actualy?

[19:01] <x-Na> Hi guys
[19:02] <zxd> is there a tool, to tell which kernel grub has as default to be loaded?
[19:02] <zxd> and also how to change the default
[19:02] <x-Na> I just recently upgraded my mb/cpu/memory and now it seems that for reasons unknown to me, my external USB drive is not seen as a storage device
[19:02] <MuNcH_Marcel> Ok, I have to ask, so I need to read a certain book, or take a certain class to figure out how to work in Ubuntu, or any Linux OS?
[19:03] <squinty> !books
[19:03] <Bashing-om> !manual | MuNcH_Marcel No, but this may help ::
[19:03] <recon_lap> MuNcH_Marcel: also, you could just start using it as well.
[19:03] <x-Na> It is seen as one usb device, but not as a disk
[19:04] <x-Na> The new mb is with UEFI bios, if that has any matter in the case
[19:04] <MuNcH_Marcel> I have. Daily normal operations aren't 's problem, it's the weird stuff that I need help with that require intimate knowledge
[19:04] <Bashing-om> zxd: ' ls -al /vmlinuz* ' will show what your booting kernel is .
[19:04] <Bashing-om> !grub | zxd
[19:05] <recon_lap> MuNcH_Marcel: well then there is a lot of learning involved if you want to know the weird stuff :)
[19:05] <ioria> x-Na,  sudo parted -l
[19:05] <x-Na> ioria, shows only my HDD's
[19:06] <MuNcH_Marcel> Wish I knew that before installing Ubuntu. A user cannot get by with just basic knowledge
[19:06] <x-Na> Not the external USB3 connected disk
[19:06] <ioria> x-Na,  unplug, replug  dmesg | tail
[19:07] <x-Na> ioria, [  930.160730] usb 2-4: new SuperSpeed USB device number 5 using xhci_hcd
[19:07] <Guest55897> unetbootin
[19:07] <x-Na> And it's the disk
[19:07] <kallo82> mattttttttb: cant install that its for ubuntu 15.10
[19:07] <x-Na> ioria, and the disk is seen on a Windows machine, so the disk itself is not broken
[19:07] <recon_lap> MuNcH_Marcel: not sure what you mean, the is just as much weird stuff in windows. what exactly do you want to know. you know that computers are probably the most complicated machines that humans have produced, and you expect them to be simple to understand ?
[19:07] <ioria> x-Na,  file system of the external disk ?
[19:07] <kallo82> mattttttttb: and running intel graphics installer gives me intel-linux-graphics-installer: command not found
[19:08] <x-Na> ioria, one partition of exFAT, one of ext4
[19:08] <ioria> x-Na,  yes, partition table ?
[19:09] <x-Na> ioria, what you mean? I can't check it now as it's not seen by the new hardware as a disk
[19:09] <x-Na> And yes, it worked with the old hardware
[19:09] <MuNcH_Marcel> recon_lap: I never came across an issue and windows I wasn't able to resolve myself, Ubuntu however it's a completely different story
[19:09] <ioria> x-Na,  msdos or gpt ?
[19:09] <rain1> hey
[19:09] <MuNcH_Marcel> I'm a PC technician I tend to fix issues myself
[19:09] <x-Na> msdos
[19:09] <rain1> I acidentially installed a bunch of stuff into /usr/lib and now no Terminal commands work
[19:10] <rain1> iis there a way to repair it?
[19:10] <ikonia> rain1: what did you install exactly
[19:10] <ikonia> and how
[19:10] <ioria> x-Na,  ok, but it's mounting  ?
[19:10] <ioria> x-Na,  can you access it ?
[19:10] <x-Na> ...
[19:10] <x-Na> No
[19:10] <x-Na> It's not even seen as a storage device
[19:11] <x-Na> aka, not accessible as a disk from fdisk/parted
[19:11] <x-Na> lsusb does see it thoguh
[19:11] <x-Na> *though

[19:12] <x-Na> ioria, lists only my HDD's and my external memory card reader
[19:12] <recon_lap> MuNcH_Marcel: so , your an expert windows user and you're not so comfortable with linux, I can understand that.
[19:13] <ioria> x-Na,  how big ?
[19:13] <x-Na> ioria, if I plug in my usb3 memory stick, it works
[19:13] <x-Na> ioria, 2TB
[19:13] <xangua> dkslw: repeating the same question over and over without any details is not very helpful
[19:13] <MuNcH_Marcel> recon_lap: exactly I have to read where and how everything works on one operating system that's completely different from what I'm used to using

[19:13] <MuNcH_Marcel> recon_lap: Since I was like 12

[19:14] <dkslw> xangua: what kind of details?
[19:15] <recon_lap> MuNcH_Marcel: and you using the straight ubuntu + unity distribution ?
[19:16] <MuNcH_Marcel> recon_lap: yeah but that's not the desktop environment that's throwing me off actually prefer unity

[19:17] <x-Na> ioria, on the usb disk, do not light up when plugged in the ubuntu box (they should light up normally)
[19:18] <x-Na> ioria, the light pops up if plug it in a windows machine
[19:18] <recon_lap> MuNcH_Marcel: well, I recently had a PITA experience with a win10 install , finishing with a system backup that would not restore and no way to reinstall windows.
[19:18] <ioria> x-Na,  power ?

[19:18] <x-Na> ioria, what about it?
[19:19] <Arch> *beer
[19:19] <x-Na> ioria, it is powered up, if that is what you mean
[19:19] <ioria> x-Na,  sometimes you need a double usb cable ... idk if it's the case ... but if the leds are dead...
[19:19] <x-Na> it does work when using the same power outlets etc and just switching the usb cable to a windows machine
[19:20] <ioria> x-Na,  the win machine it's the same machine ?
[19:20] <dkslw> squinty: i just did, still menubar is empty
[19:20] <x-Na> Once again, it works when plugged in a windows machine, with the same cables, though
[19:20] <x-Na> It has external power
[19:20] <x-Na> If that is what you're after
[19:20] <ioria> x-Na,  the win machine it's the same machine  or another ?
[19:20] <x-Na> External power plugged in, usb plugged in
[19:20] <squinty> dkslw,  may have to log out and then back in again
[19:20] <Arch> octicalgaggoles
[19:21] <squinty> Arch,  please stop
[19:21] <Arch> ok
[19:21] <x-Na> That is a different machine, but the disk is seen by lsusb
[19:21] <x-Na> It's just not recognised as a storage device
[19:21] <Arch> my /dev/sda works ...
[19:21] <squinty> x-Na,  maybe see if Disks recognizes it.  if it lists it, you can mount it from there
[19:22] <ioria> x-Na,  maybe if you paste  dmesg | tail after replugging could help
[19:22] <Arch> nope
[19:22] <fldse> well my global menu bar is always empty, any way to fix it?
[19:22] <x-Na> squinty, no disks does not see it
[19:22] <x-Na> None of the disk utilities see it as a disk
[19:23] <ioria> x-Na,  you know how to paste ?
[19:23] <ioria> x-Na,  install pastebinit or paste.ubuntu.com
[19:23] <owen> How to concat 2 videos? one is ISO Media, MPEG-4 for SonyPSP and the other is Matroska data

[19:23] <mattttttttb> kallo82: could you open additional drivers
[19:23] <squinty> x-Na,  did you safely unmount it from your Windows box before hooking it up to your linux box?
[19:24] <x-Na> squinty, yes
[19:24] <x-Na> And it did work with the old hardware (old-fashioned bios)
[19:24] <squinty> x-Na, weird :-(
[19:24] <kallo82> mattttttttb: i did
[19:24] <x-Na> Well tell me about it
[19:24] <x-Na> It's only my backup disk
[19:24] <x-Na> Which is really handy as I would of liked to take a backup today :D
[19:25] <mattttttttb> kallo82: what options did you get?
[19:25] <ioria> x-Na,  do you have an entry for it in fstab for any chances ?
[19:25] <x-Na> ioria, no
[19:26] <kallo82> mattttttttb: http://imgur.com/APC5Eom
[19:26] <x-Na> It's a disk that I take to work for safekeeping (in case of a fire or similar) and then I take it home whenever I need to take new backups
[19:27] <ioria> x-Na,  you said changed mb ?
[19:27] <x-Na> Yes
[19:27] <x-Na> And cpu/memory, but the mb is the culprit here, I guess
[19:27] <recon_lap> x-Na: plug the usb drive out, then plug it in, wait a min, then pastebin the output of "sudo tail /var/log/syslog"
[19:27] <ioria> x-Na,  keep a look in the efi bios then...
[19:28] <x-Na> ...meaning?
[19:28] <ioria> x-Na,  first see the recon_lap comment
[19:29] <x-Na> I do get these lines

[19:39] <lapyo> BluesKaj: thx, I should've used search engines before asking tho lol
[19:39] <kallo82> mattttttttb: you mean upgrade to 15.10 ?
[19:39] <jemark> nshell.org/session 255.255.255.255
[19:39] <ikonia> do not upgrade to 15.10
[19:39] <ikonia> what value do you expect to get out of it ?
[19:40] <BluesKaj> lapyo, np
[19:43] <kallo82> mattttttttb: the problem is i cant connect my dell laptop to dockstation
[19:43] <kallo82> Ubuntu 14.04.4 freezes
[19:44] <mattttttttb> kallo82: 15.10 is still using the same kernel (4.2). It looks like it was addressed in kernel 4.3 but to get that you either have to be on 16.04 lts (which is on kernel 4.4) or upgrading the kernel from source to 4.3
[19:44] <recon_lap> x-Na: nothing springing to mind. sry
[19:45] <mattttttttb> kallo82: other than that I'm out of ideas
[19:45] <kallo82> mattttttttb: can you help me how to upgrade the kernel from source ?
[19:45] <ikonia> do not do that
[19:46] <ikonia> or rather "do not attempt to do that"
[19:46] <kallo82> ikonia: why if its gona resolve this issue ?
[19:46] <ikonia> you have no idea if it's going to resolve the issue, and you have no idea of the implications it will bring to your system
[19:48] <Arch> my Kingston 60 GB ;)
[19:48] <jatt> you don't need to compile the kernel from source
[19:51] <phanes_> whats wrong with compiling from source
[19:51] <phanes_> it's not like you've so overpatched the kernel from upstream that its not interchangeable anymore
[19:51] <ikonia> what ?
[19:52] <phanes_> just pointing out that if there aren't dangerous patches to the kernel in distro provided packages then compiling kernel from source is fine
[19:52] <ikonia> no it's not
[19:52] <phanes_> why do you think this
[19:52] <phanes_> who told you this
[19:53] <ikonia> I did
[19:53] <phanes_> ok well then everybody dont compile your kernel because some random guy on irc said so for no real apparent reason
[19:53] <ikonia> good advice
[19:53] <phanes_> nothing wrong with it (provided dangerous patching isn't taking place in distro)
[19:54] <ikonia> there are many things wrong from it
[19:54] <phanes_> like?
[19:54] <ikonia> phanes_: take it to an offtopic channel
[19:54] <phanes_> i suspect that you heard this from someone once for a specific repair and are merely regurgitating it and dont know why building a kernel vanilla from source is actually a great idea
[19:55] <phanes_> ill drop it, but that's stilly
[19:55] <ikonia> phanes_: you suspect wrong - please take it to an offtopic channel
[19:55] <phanes_> please dont misinform users
[19:55] <ikonia> I'm not
[19:56] <phanes_> i just called it -- you told someone its bad to compile a kernel and wont say why -- this is ontopic
[19:56]  * phanes_ checks
[19:56] <phanes_> yep this is #ubuntu
[19:56] <ikonia> phanes_: drop it - there is zero reason for him to compile his own kernel and a huge risk to him
[19:56] <phanes_> what risk
[19:56] <ikonia> if you want me detil I'll be happy to discuss it in an offtopic channel
[19:56] <wyre> where can I download 16.04?
[19:56] <ikonia> detail even
[19:56] <wyre> it's LTS release?
[19:56] <ikonia> wyre: ubuntu.com when it's released
[19:56] <ikonia>  it is an LTS release, yes
[19:57] <wyre> ikonia, and when would be?
[19:57] <ikonia> !160.04
[19:57] <ikonia> oops
[19:57] <wyre> !16.04
[19:57] <ikonia> !16.04
[19:57] <wyre> ok :D
[19:57] <wyre> ty :P
[19:57]  * phanes_ is not really sure what the topic is for #ubuntu now except "whatever the op doesnt want to talk about"
[19:58] <ikonia> phanes_: the topic is ubuntu support and helping the user solve their problems
[19:58] <phanes_> right, so, as i said, unless you have any justification at all, please dont misinform users by telling them compiling their kernel will cause damage to their system
[19:58] <phanes_> because its fine
[19:59] <BluesKaj> !compile
[20:01] <dfsegf> rhythmbox doesn't have any menubar but the global menu is empty too, how to fix?
[20:09] <x-Na> recon_lap, no luck with fiddling with settings
[20:10] <x-Na> recon_lap, UEFI does see it too as it is listed as a boot device
[20:12] <jinette> hello everyone, I have installed postgresql for the first time, and got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15592638/, what do I need to do to make it work correctly?
[20:13] <x-Na> I'll retreat to playing GTA and venting out my anger on some unsuspecting NPC's
[20:13] <recon_lap> jinette: did you setup an admin account while installing postgresql
[20:14] <effectnet> so yeah i got unknown display and i want 1280x1024
[20:14] <effectnet> how do i run a program without x server
[20:16] <recon_lap> x-Na: did find some old stuff regarding the not a MPT device, but nothing that looked promising, I agree a bit of mindless violence  is called for !!
[20:16] <yeats> jinette: if you haven't created a user yet, do "sudo -i -u postgres" then as postgres "createuser -P myuser"... if you have already created "myuser" try "psql -U myuser"
[20:17] <yeats> jinette: (substituting "myuser" with the actual username you want to use, of course"
[20:17] <yeats> )
[20:17] <jinette> recon_lap, no, I hadn't done it yet
[20:17] <jinette> yeats, thank you very much, I'm applying them now
[20:19] <yeats> jinette: if "psql -U myuser" doesn't work, you'll need to adjust /etc/postgresql/<version number>/pg_hba.conf to allow it - see http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/auth-pg-hba-conf.html for how that file workds
[20:21] <jinette> yeats, apparently it didnt work: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15592733/ so I'm adjusting it as you informed
[20:22] <yeats> jinette: if this is not a production server, you can just set those to "trust", just to get something working, but you'll probably want md5 in a production instance
[20:26] <designbybeck> I seem to be messing up my dd command. When I try to open up the USB, it says no media
[20:26] <designbybeck> here is what I used: sudo dd bs=4M if=xenial-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdd
[20:26] <effectnet> so how can i run something without x server running?
[20:26] <designbybeck> the usb had another distro on it

[20:40] <sludgefrog>  I tried booting Ubuntu via virtualbox this morning and it takes me to initramfs.   My /dev/sda is not available when I type ls /dev/[hs]da*   help?
[20:41] <nexace_> what is the best way to upgrade latest python from 2.7.6 on ubuntu command line?
[20:45] <sludgefrog>  okay, I'm running a rescue cd.  I get kicked into initramfs and my /dev/sda isn't available. what should I do to recover my boot?
[20:48] <Arch> broke my rist.
[20:48] <ubuntu566> Hi
[20:48] <sravanz> Hello
[20:48] <recon_lap> sludgefrog: maybe do a google search on repairing grub, not sure if thats you problem though
[20:48] <sravanz> I have IRC connection established from my vps ubuntu
[20:49] <sravanz> And its also logged into a server & channel
[20:49] <sravanz> Is it possible that I send messages to that channel from command line?
[20:50] <Crystofol> hola?
[20:51] <Crystofol> alguien me lee?
[20:51] <Crystofol> hello?
[20:51] <Crystofol> somebody reads me?
[20:51] <k1l_> !es | Crystofol
[20:51] <johnnyCache> to the folks that gave me info on nomodeset, finally got the machine to boot with a screen showing finally ! Yah !
[20:52] <Arch> so i have chrome
[20:52] <johnnyCache> as soon as I got the proprietary ndvidia driver in, it works nicely
[20:52] <recon_lap> google is watching !!!
[20:53] <k1l_> johnnyCache: yes, some cards need nomodeset if the nvidia driver is not installed.
[20:53] <Arch> look at me look at me! ;)
[20:54] <johnnyCache> ya, that caused me so much grief, I’ve got 3 machines that need to have that done, now I know what is going on finally
[20:54] <johnnyCache> I thought something was wrong the the boxes but it is the stupid video driver
[20:55] <jinette> yeats, I cannot open the file, error says it is of an unknown type
[20:55] <jinette> I mean pg_hba.conf
[20:55] <johnnyCache> I heard from someone that there is some kind of app called lense in Ubuntu that is logging keystrokes, is this true ?
[20:55] <DiamondSword> http://askubuntu.com/questions/141606/how-to-fix-the-system-is-running-in-low-graphics-mode-error << I have exactly this problem.. they advise to install nvidia drivers via apt (nvidia-current) and ppa.. which one should I follow?
[20:57] <k1l_> johnnyCache: the online search is searching online. like the search bar in your browser. if you dont want that you can set that to off in the privacy settings in system settings
[20:57] <johnnyCache> no, besides that searching thing
[20:58] <k1l_> johnnyCache: no
[20:58] <johnnyCache> hmmm, wonder why this one guy told me that….
[20:59] <k1l_> johnnyCache: some people call that online search "spyware". but i doubt they call the browser or other search tools spyware. so this is some kind of "FUD". but there is no hidden keylogger or such in ubuntu.
[20:59] <mlvmhn> is somebody good at open vpn?
[21:00] <johnnyCache> so after I turn off that searching thing, there is nothing else that is logging keystrokes or doing telemetry, right ?
[21:01] <johnnyCache> maybe that person is refering to if you use the amazon store thingie…wonder if that’s doing something…
[21:03] <k1l_> johnnyCache: the amazon store search is part of the online search. if you shut that down everything is stopped
[21:03] <johnnyCache> ok, thanks a bunch for clarifying that…
[21:06] <Arch> plugs
[21:07] <johnnyCache> one last thing, in one of my machines I have 24 GB of ram, when I do virtual machines, do I set it up 64 bit or 32 bit based on the ram the host machine has or how much ram I set in the Vbox settings ?
[21:08] <k1l_> johnnyCache: you dont want to run 32bit OS in 2016 :)
[21:08] <johnnyCache> haha
[21:12] <sludgefrog> how am I supposed to read the contents of dmesg from initramfs if it scrolls by and less and more do not work?
[21:14] <wandersondamasce> boa tarde
[21:17] <recon_lap> sludgefrog: maybe  "cat dmesg | more" might do it
[21:18] <jinette> hello again, I just noticed that after having installed postgresql, my terminal turned to be shown as 'postgres@pcname:~$' ..do I need to return it to its original form to run 'psql' command?
[21:22] <jinette> I also have the current problem that the terminal rejects my correct password repeatedly
[21:26] <jinette> ok, solved, I guess
[21:27] <sludgefrog> recon_lap: nope, it just scrolls right past like I never piped to more
[21:28] <SchrodingersScat> that doesn't seem normal
[21:29] <jinette> I have another question, while the terminal was in postgres (showing postgres@pcname:~$ as I mentioned) I installed two packages before I noticed that. these will be healthy installations, I presume?
[21:30] <SchrodingersScat> jinette: I guess that would mean user postgres has sudo privileges? then yes, should be fine
[21:32] <jinette> SchrodingersScat, I'd run the installs without sudo (with 'brew' and some "ruby -e.." command) but I'd given 'sudo -i -u postgres' to get into postgres. that should be fine?
[21:33] <CrowX-> Is there a trick or w/e to make ubuntu boot faster?
[21:33] <SchrodingersScat> jinette: then not sure
[21:33] <CrowX-> My new laptop boots from SSD for 16 seconds. I see people on youtube booting for 9 seconds or less
[21:34] <CrowX-> I remember my hdd machine was booting for like 20 seconds
[21:35] <lotuspsychje> CrowX-: wich ssd brand?
[21:35] <designbybeck> I seem to be messing up my dd command. When I try to open up the USB, it says no media
[21:35] <jinette> SchrodingersScat, I see, thank you..I hope it to work well, then :)
[21:35] <designbybeck> the usb had another distro on it
[21:35] <designbybeck> here is what I used: sudo dd bs=4M if=xenial-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdd
[21:36] <CrowX-> lotuspsychje, intel aparently
[21:36] <lotuspsychje> CrowX-: ubuntu version?
[21:36] <CrowX-> 14.04
[21:36] <k1l_> CrowX-: make a plot of the booting and look at what is taking "so long"
[21:36] <lotuspsychje> CrowX-: do you count post boot also?
[21:36] <k1l_> CrowX-: you can reduce or shut off the grub menu
[21:37] <CrowX-> k1l_, what plot? the screen is either dark or has a splash screen on it. Is there a way to disable the splash screen?
[21:37] <CrowX-> grub menu is 0
[21:37] <designbybeck> And when I plug it back in in Disks, it shows the USB drive, but says No Media, and I can't format it or anything
[21:37] <CrowX-> lotuspsychje, I count from bios screen ending until I see desktop icons
[21:37] <designbybeck> Am I damaging the USB drive with  the dd command?
[21:38] <lotuspsychje> CrowX-: ok good
[21:38] <k1l_> CrowX-: install "bootchart" and then look into /var/log/bootchart
[21:39] <lotuspsychje> CrowX-: you can do the following tricks also: install preload, disable unwanted startup items,try 'quiet splash' off in grub, check lightdmlog for lags
[21:39] <k1l_> first look at bootchart whats going on. if there is a blocker or a long wait
[21:40] <luminoso_> hi if this is here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+package/python-wxgtk2.8 why can't i find this package in ubuntu 16.04beta?
[21:41] <CrowX-> thanks guys, I'll try following your advice.
[21:41] <Kimse> Is it possible to extract a single file from a tar archive and move it to a specific location ?
[21:41] <Kimse> I have tried something like this: tar -xf archive.tar myfile -C /where/i/want/myfile
[21:41] <k1l_> luminoso_: its not in xenial
[21:41] <luminoso_> oh
[21:41] <Kimse> but myfile is extracted to current directory
[21:41] <luminoso_> but i says "Binary package “python-wxgtk2.8” in ubuntu xenial
[21:41] <luminoso_> thanks k1l_
[21:42] <k1l_> luminoso_: its only in xenial for s390x architecture.
[21:43] <trism> luminoso_: it was deleted in favor of the 3.0 version because of this debian bug, https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=785079

[22:18] <phawq123> noob question: is tehre a music player I can copy from a usb device onto a computer (in this case a raspberry pi) with a unix system on it?
[22:19] <MonkeyDust> phawq123  how is that ubuntu related?
[22:19] <phawq123> i.e. is installing a music player from a usb a possible way to install?  @MonkeyDust because ubuntu is a unix system, and my question is unix
[22:20] <k1l_> phawq123: your question doesnt make sense
[22:20] <bazhang> phawq123, ##linux
[22:20] <MonkeyDust> phawq123  macos is unix too, try and ask there
[22:20] <bazhang> phawq123, this is ubuntu LINUX support only
[22:20] <phawq123> kll_ that's a shitty way to answer a question. Most normal people would explain why something didn't make sense
[22:21] <bazhang> phawq123, its not unix
[22:21] <MonkeyDust> phawq123  you're in the wrong channel
[22:21] <bazhang> phawq123, its offtopic here
[22:21] <phawq123> ok,
[22:21] <tripelb> 14.04 KDE: Folders cannot be named or renamed. At first everything find, then changes. Some keyset changes a status.--- Works in Terminal of course.
[22:22] <k1l_> phawq123: do you want to copy a hardware usb mp43 player? do you meant the music saved on that player? or do you mean a music player app?
[22:22] <phawq123> the music player app
[22:22] <lotuspsychje> CrowX-: getting any faster yet?
[22:23] <lotuspsychje> tripelb: can you rename folder on another user?
[22:23] <lotuspsychje> tripelb: or with gksu nautilus?
[22:23] <k1l_> phawq123: why do you want to "copy the music player app" from the hardware mp3 player to another os? why dont you use the musicplayer ubuntu ships or offers in the repos?
[22:24] <k1l_> tripelb: where is that folder? what ubuntu is that exactly?
[22:24] <MannyLNJ> Trying to use apt-get update and I'm geting a failed to fetch for chrome-remote-desktop causing apt-get update to end early. How do I resolve this?
[22:24] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: can you show the output in paste.ubuntu.com ?
[22:25] <MannyLNJ> k1l_, Can you remind me how to send cli putput to paste?
[22:25] <EriC^^> MannyLNJ: add | nc termbin.com 9999 to the command
[22:25] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: add a "|nc termbin.com 9999"
[22:25] <CrowX-> k1l_, lotuspsychje, I can't get anything meaningful out of bootchart's data. Mind taking a look? maybe you could get something out of it
[22:26] <MannyLNJ> http://termbin.com/pq9e but it displayed that URL prior to the completion of the command
[22:27] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: than copy the text with the mouse and put it onto paste.ubuntu.com manually
[22:28] <k1l_> CrowX-: upload the chart to some picturehoster like imgur or such
[22:28] <triciad> I'm not having a problem, just curious about something. I downloaded Visual Studio 2015 on Windows 7 VM. When installing it kept hanging about halfway through. I literally left the install up for over 10 hours. So, I opened the task manager and clicked on processes. Just when I clicked on it, it started finishing the install. Weird.
[22:29] <k1l_> triciad: sounds like a issue for ##windows :)
[22:29] <triciad> lol
[22:29] <triciad> thanks

[22:30] <Squarism> is it just me or do other people think stuff is moving along to slow with ubuntu/linux desktop? Some problems seems near unfixable keyassignments (even with CCSM sometimes), theres no way to route notifications from chrome -> libnotify as of 2016, etc.
[22:31] <Squarism> like keyassignments
[22:31] <Squarism> even
[22:31] <lulcat> what are those ?
[22:31] <akik> MannyLNJ: google stopped distributing the 32-bit chrome for linux
[22:31] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: ok. seems like google killed the 32bit packages of that packages too.
[22:32] <MannyLNJ> akik, and k1l_ I thought I was using a 64 bit install. Is there a way to "upgrade" from 32 bit to 64?
[22:32] <lulcat> triciad: that happens sometimes when the output isn't being flushed accordingly
[22:32] <lulcat> triciad: and it only refreshes when you click it

[22:33] <effectnet> k in additional drivers it says, A binary driver - version 340.96 from nvidia-340 (proprietary, tested)
[22:33] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: no, you just need to make the repos point only to the 64bit versions.

[22:37] <effectnet> no
[22:37] <CrowX-> k1l_, yes

[22:39] <CrowX-> k1l_, what do you mean? None set up by me, except mysql and apache
[22:39] <CrowX-> everything else was kubuntu's default
[22:40] <V7> Guys ...
[22:40] <V7> How to kill Krusader which is trying to reconnect to server ... incycled
[22:41] <squinty> MannyLNJ,  http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/03/fix-failed-to-fetch-google-chrome-apt-error-ubuntu
[22:42] <MannyLNJ> squinty, I will try that althouhg issue is for chrome remote desktop not chrome
[22:43] <akik> MannyLNJ: i'm pretty sure you'll get the error also when you run "apt-get update" until you fix that repository config
[22:43] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: adjust that 2 paths given in the command to your google-chrome-remote oaths
[22:44] <k1l_> *paths
[22:44] <wutf> DOS/MBR boot sector; partition 2 : ID=0xef, start-CHS (0x3ff,254,63), end-CHS (0x3ff,254,63), startsector 2842860, 4736 sectors
[22:45] <wutf> this is the MBR of my thumbdrive. is DOS/MBR correct?
[22:45] <k1l_> CrowX-: seems like the start of apache is blocking because its waiting for the network to connect (is it wifi?).
[22:45] <wutf> i ask because i can't boot from it
[22:45] <sruli> i installed ubuntu dualboot with windows, i used luks, i have a problem booting, firstly normal boot just hangs, i have to boot in recovery, when i resume Normal boot it complains about "dev-mapper-cryptswap1.device" after a few min it gives up and gets to login screen, i am using LVM, how can i resolve this?
[22:46] <wutf> is there a special MBR for linux that is different than DOS/MBR ?
[22:46] <MannyLNJ> k1l_, I took the "nuclear" optaion and just removed the files from the folder. Without a display I don't really need a browser
[22:46] <CrowX-> k1l_, yes, it's wifi
[22:46] <V7> Is here anyone using Krusader ?
[22:46] <CrowX-> k1l_, but I use apache only internally, so I don't need it to wait for network, if it could be done
[22:47] <k1l_> CrowX-: its a webserver. it waits for network.
[22:47] <k1l_> CrowX-: you could start it only then if you need it.
[22:48] <CrowX-> k1l_, how do you see that it's apache blocking stuff?
[22:48] <squinty> V7,  better to just state your problem and there is a specific channel for #kubuntu
[22:48] <akik> CrowX-: make it listen on the loopback address?
[22:49] <V7> I'm not using Kubuntu
[22:49] <CrowX-> akik, how?
[22:49] <V7> I'm using Krusader to enter my SFTP servers folder and copy here a remote file ...
[22:50] <akik> CrowX-: "Listen 127.0.0.1:port" in a config file
[22:51] <sruli> i installed ubuntu dualboot with windows, i used luks, i have a problem booting, firstly normal boot just hangs, i have to boot in recovery, when i resume Normal boot it complains about "dev-mapper-cryptswap1.device" after a few min it gives up and gets to login screen, i am using LVM, how can i resolve this?
[22:51] <V7> squinty: Look ... which file manager with sftp support are you using ?
[22:52] <pistolpete> ubuntu
[22:52] <EriC^^> sruli: pastebin sudo blkid /etc/fstab and /etc/crypttab
[22:53] <V7> pistolpete: Nice joke ... you want tell us that Ubuntu is a file manager :D ?
[22:53] <V7> squinty: Also I wrote my problem earlier
[22:53] <pistolpete> EriC^^: whatever
[22:54] <EriC^^> pistolpete: ikr
[22:54] <CrowX-> akik, thx
[22:55] <sruli> EriC^^: i think i found a issue in fstab, rebooting will see it its solved
[22:57] <Rhorse> Hi, I have a hard drive with a distro taking up a partition the size of the entire hard drive - 1 TB. Is it possible to reduce the size of this partition and create more partitions for a gentoo install? Can I used parted or gparted for this?
[22:58] <k1l_> Rhorse: load a live-usb for that. you cant resize partitions while using them
[23:01] <sruli> EriC^^: plymouth screen still does not show but left arrow shows text to enter luks pass it still comlains there about same thing. (will post what u requested when it finishes booting in a moment) after install in livecd update-grub complained about lvmetad so i disabled it, i now enabled it again and updated grub and noticed it was also complaing in boot about lvmsocket not found
[23:03] <sruli> EriC^^: all 3 in paste.ubuntu.com/15594037
[23:05] <sruli> EriC^^: i added to grub "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=auto" but plymouth screen still does not show
[23:07] <V7> I can't install nethogs ...
[23:08] <V7> apt-get isn't connecting to a server xD
[23:08] <skinux> I've been told by a reliable source that .NET has become completely OSS and that RedHat already has .NET available. Anyone have any information on ETA availability on Ubuntu?
[23:12] <squinty> V7:  Software and Updates -> Download From -> click on triangle arrow -> Other -> Select best Server    that will find the best server to use at this particular time  (assuming your apt problem is server related)
[23:13] <V7> squinty: I did it xD Also ... I find out what have been causing it by that time ...
[23:13] <MannyLNJ> How can I tell what purt on Ubuntu my PLEX server is listening on?
[23:13] <V7> Firewall ...
[23:13] <V7> squinty: btw thank you !
[23:14] <squinty> V7,  yw   and great to hear your problem is fixed
[23:14] <sruli> EriC^^: did u see the paste?
[23:15] <kulelu88> what light-weight webserver can I use for rendering a few static web files from /user/path/to that isn't /var/www/ ?
[23:22] <EriC^^> sruli: reading
[23:23] <SuperBOP> if i have kodi fullscreen and i use a hot corner to show all open windows in ubuntu and my system freezes is that a kodi or ubuntu issue?
[23:23] <SuperBOP> unity
[23:25] <EriC^^> sruli: paste sudo parted -l
[23:26] <sruli> EriC^^: i sorted the swap issue by mkwap /dev/mapper/vg1-lvswap and put new uuid in crypttab, however plymouth boot screen still not showing and now it asks for swap passphrase aswell as regular passphrase on each boot
[23:28] <EriC^^> try to update the initramfs and reinstall plymouth maybe
[23:28] <sruli> EriC^^: parted -l paste.ubuntu.com/15594214
[23:29] <EriC^^> the uuid in crypttab is for another swap
[23:30] <EriC^^> you can delete the crypttab line for cryptswap1
[23:30] <V7> Who's know how to get a total network traffic in nethogs ?
[23:32] <feneco> hi, my ubuntu 14.04 64-bit just froze, I could listen the audio and see the screen, but couldn't do anything else, which logs should I check to see what happened?
[23:33] <V7> feneco: try dmesg
[23:33] <sruli> EriC^^: if i delete it, what will it use for swap? how do i reinstall plymouth? just apt-get install plymouth? on boot its now complaining "/run/lvm/lvmetad.socket: connect failed: no such file or directory. WARNING: failed to connect to lvmetad" i gues this is since i reanabled use_lvmetad do i need it enabled?
[23:33] <V7> Before it try Ctrl+Alt+1
