VapezHello, is safe to apt-get autoremove 2.7GB with kernels?00:20
RochvellonYeah00:20
VapezRochvellon: http://pastebin.com/JX8Srvm700:20
Vapezthis is safe?00:20
k1l_Vapez: yes00:21
Marezzwhere is bashrc file located? i need to create an alias00:21
k1l_Vapez: just make sure  afterwards that "linux-generic" is still installed00:21
k1l_Marezz: its ".bashrc" and its in your users homw00:21
k1l_*home00:21
Vapezk1l_: i have linux-generic  3.13.0.83.89 amd64  , so i can safely make a auto-remove, right?00:22
k1l_Vapez: no i meant make sure the "linux-generic" package is installed afterwards.00:23
Marezzk1l_, i just checked it, its not there00:23
k1l_Vapez: removing old kernels is fine00:23
RochvellonVapez: you could aspell, dictionaries, hunspell and the other packages other than the kernel packages reinstall after the autoremove00:24
k1l_Marezz: then create one in the users home00:24
VapezI should do this manual, or it's making automatic the change, Rochvellon?00:24
RochvellonVapez: you do it manually with "sudo apt-get install aspell aspell-en dictionaries-common enchant hunspell-en-us libaspell1500:26

an0o0nymhello guys im having a problem. my unity doesnt load. i can see no dash no launcher. i tried everythin from lightdm restart through using compizconfig manager trying to enable unity plugin. but nothing seems to work. it does happen only on my root account, the other one is working fine. Can anyone please help me?00:27
k1l_Vapez: but you want to run "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" since there are a lot of non installed updates00:27
Vapezk1l_: now it's runing the apt-get upgrade00:27
Vapezbut not with full option...00:27
k1l_Vapez: you need the full-upgrade to get new kernels etc.00:27
Vapezi am kind of paranoid because this is the production server, i still have snapshot just in case, but i want to be safe00:28
Vapezi will do "full-upgrade" after finishhing this operation00:28

Bashing-om!minimal | Guest4908201:37
ubottuGuest49082: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.  The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD01:37
onnz423Looks promising via the live usb01:37

onnz423well if you press "try ubuntu" are letters sstill missing?02:59
onnz423when you browse through the menus03:00

waterCreaturehas anyone used ubuntu on raspberry pi?03:05
onnz423i tried it, but it didnt have any installation files03:05
onnz423i dont know why03:05
waterCreaturei got the NOOBS, but it's super irritating. can't install eclipse and the downloads takes hours.03:05
onnz423devslash, yo03:05
onnz423it was some error apperently03:06
onnz423now it can be installed :D03:06
devslashWhat was03:06
onnz42327603MB, last time i checked it was 370MB03:06
onnz423so i guess they had update or smthn03:06
devslashWgat are you talking about03:06
onnz423about the payday2, short answer is yes it can be installed03:06
waterCreaturei am thinking of switching to ubuntu, but from one website, the poll result was like 60 something percent for raspbian and 28% for ubuntu, although it doesn't say what the poll question is about.03:07
devslashNice03:07
waterCreatureI need to make sure that before I swt=itch to ubuntu, that ubuntu is a better choice than raspbian .03:07
devslashI use raspbian on my pi03:07
waterCreaturedevslash, how has it been so far?03:08
devslashVery reliable03:08
waterCreaturewhat do you use it for?03:08
devslashWeb hosting03:08
onnz423I guess im getting rasperry pi too03:08
devslashI run a private cloud server03:08
[Saint]a very very slow one. :)03:08
onnz423i was thinking about running a tor exit node on rasperry03:09
onnz423for that reason i would buy it03:09
[Saint]there's a LOT of non-pi boards that aren't objectively terrible.03:09
[Saint]shop around.03:09
waterCreatureas for me, I need to link it with arduino and create a UI to display whatever arduino is sending, I installed kivy globally, on RP, but the same code that works on windows is not running on Rapsbian,03:10
waterCreatureI am devastated.03:10
onnz423I kind of want to learn C++ and create my own cryptocurrency03:12
[Saint]If you want a whole lot more board at a reasonably similar price, and don't care too much about the silicon vendor, check out Hardkern's ODROID boards.03:12
[Saint]The XU4 is a neat little board.03:12
[Saint]*Hardkernel03:13
waterCreatureI should have researched more before i bought raspberry pi..03:14
[Saint]Yep.03:15
[Saint]They saturated the market with noise.03:15
[Saint]Then others blindly parrot it.03:15
[Saint]The only really compelling reason to get a pi is the cost.03:15
waterCreaturei paid 63 singapoer dollars.03:15
[Saint]....ouch.03:16
waterCreatureNow I just have to make it work03:16
[Saint]The C2 is also a neat little board.03:16
[Saint]And priced very pi-competitively.03:16
sabotagebeatsis there better boards than pi that are currently avail for similar pricepoint? :303:18
sabotagebeatsi really wanted to buy a pi but i can't find one shipped from USA for a non gouged price03:18
waterCreaturehttp://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php yeah, this one seems like it has better specs03:18
[Saint]sabotagebeats: C2 from Ameridroid.03:19
[Saint](since you're in the US)03:19
waterCreatureexcept rp3 has wifi and bluetooth built in, so no need to buy wifi dongle.03:19
[Saint]They're a hardkernel distribution partner.03:19
[Saint]That's a piss poor reason to prefer the Pi 3 IMO.03:19
waterCreatureyeah,03:19
sabotagebeats[Saint], is the C2 arm?03:19
waterCreatureikr03:19
sabotagebeats2 dongles = 10 bucks ?03:20
[Saint]Less, and, yes, it is.03:20
[Saint]aarch64 in fact.03:20
sabotagebeatswhat does tha tmean :)03:20
[Saint]"ARM 64 bit"03:21
[Saint]just check the link that waterCreature beat me to supplying by a few seconds.03:21
[Saint]Oh. They also run Android, which is something the Pi will never do in any of its current forms without Broadcom taking a digit out of an orifice.03:22
[Saint](which they have repeatedly displayed no interest in doing)03:22
[Saint]Well...raspi can "run Android", but it is a useless lagfest unaccellerated mess.03:23

buharinwafflejock, how to run pulseaudio?06:13
=== Guest93248 is now known as Petru7
wafflejockbuharin: typically it starts automatically during boot up I just had that issue because I was using JACK audio for some Midi stuff I was playing with and didn't have the pulsaudio jack bridge stuff so I was stopping pulseaudio manually with pulseaudio -k and then starting it back up manually06:14
wafflejockbuharin: as far as I understand it ALSA is the low level audio stuff that communicates with the kernel drivers for talking to the hardware, then typically Ubuntu uses Pulseaudio on top of that for controlling per application volume to go to ALSA and out to the hardware06:15
B0g4r7_Bah, Server installer also fails saying "Your installation  CD-ROM couldn't be mounted."  CD-ROM?  What is this 1997?06:15
wafflejockthen JACK is an alternative that can talk right to ALSA too or I think can go through pulse06:15
wafflejockhaha :)06:16
buharinwafflejock, yeah06:16
dm_comphi, so in a bug report it states this this should be fixed in libvirt 1.3.1-1ubuntu8 and when i do dpkg -s libvirt-bin i get this this Version: 1.3.1-1ubuntu606:16
buharinyou know I find some that there are some settings for defaul stereo06:16
buharinbut I don't where I can set this06:17
dm_comphow can i get the new version?06:17
buharinwafflejock, I think the problem is that by default youtube trying to use stereo4.0 but my audio not working in this mode06:17
wafflejockbuharin: not sure about that have used the alsa-utils (alsamixer) or pulseaudio volume control (pavucontrol) for adjusting audio things (also with JACK qJackControl and patchage but not really relevant here)06:18
wafflejockI dunno any of those let you change the stereo mode though06:18
wafflejockI have done some commands for adjusting audio output on raspi but again not sure about stereo mode just which hardware output to use06:18
buharinwafflejock, if I run pavucontrol06:19
buharinI can see how audio is playing06:19
buharinbut no sound here06:19
wafflejockhmm weird, it looks like the right output selected in pulse for where you see the vu meter too? usually a little drop down there if you have multiple outputs (bluetooth or whatever)06:20
buharinwafflejock, I dropdown all settings noone works06:20
wafflejockyah sorry think I'm out of ideas buharin will let you know if I think of or find anything06:22
B0g4r7_askubuntu.com tells me "Ubuntu Server Install has been broken for many versions. I don't think it will ever be corrected."06:22

B0g4r7_IDK man, I may be losing my faith in the whole linux on the desktop thing.  I might have to think about going back to os x.06:23
wafflejockB0g4r7_: well if you want to install desktop linux why use the server install disk?06:24
B0g4r7_Because I want raid, and the desktop installer won't let me do raid.06:24
tonyyarussoThe idea that the server installer is broken is news to me, since I run that...06:25
B0g4r7_Here's the page that tells me that: http://askubuntu.com/questions/671159/bootable-usb-needs-cd-rom06:25
B0g4r7_Seemingly broken if you're trying to install from some media other than a physical CD-ROM.06:26

B0g4r7_That's what I did.  dd'd the image.06:27

poliHello all! I just dist-upgraded from 14.04 to 15.10 and I am not able to the my Atheros Killer E220x (alx driver) working on the 4.2 kernel. It works just fine on the old versin 3 kernel. How can I install the alx driver in this latest version?07:41
Eiam_let me try it again, it really shouldn't have that07:41

Eiam_baizon: thank you..07:44
baizonEiam_: np07:44
poliLet me rephrase that: seems like 15.10's 4.2 kernel is missing the atheros/alx driver altogether. What would be the best way to install it?07:45
baizonpoli: https://askubuntu.com/questions/616182/alx-on-ar8191-does-not-appear-to-be-working-15-0407:46

polibaizon: seen that before, but thanks again. The alx driver isn't in the modules list, so I can't even get the ethernet to show up. That would be the second step. Had to boot the old 3 kernel to be able to get here.07:48
baizonpoli: or try newer ones?07:48
polibaizon: newer kernels you mean?07:48
polibaizon: I think I need something more basic: I want to find out the ubuntu way of installing a kernel module. I know what that modules is, I just have to find out how to install it.07:50

rustuptwist__I'm trying to burn Ubuntu 14.04.4 to a USB on a Mac to use on a Windows machine. Seems like the instructions on Ubuntu.com for Mac is to install in A Mac. Can some1 point me in the right direction07:54
B0g4r7_rustuptwist__, http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx07:55
rustuptwist__B0g4r7_: yeah that's whewhere I am. So it will work07:56
rustuptwist__To install on Windows07:56
B0g4r7_I don't quite know what you mean "install on Windows".07:56
B0g4r7_Linux installs on a computer.07:57
pZombietest07:59
rustuptwist__B0g4r7_: if that page results in a Usb with a .dmg file I'm assuming it won't install on a computer running Windows OS as .dmg is for OSX07:59
B0g4r7_rustuptwist__, you don't place the .dmg file onto a filesystem on the usb drive.  You write it directly to the USB media, replacing its filesystem.08:00
B0g4r7_The resulting USB stick should be identical to one made using Windows or Linux or some other OS, if done correctly.08:00
wafflejockrustuptwist__: see the note there says it may rename it with a dmg extension, when you do the dd operation it writes all the data from inside the file it created to the drive08:00
cfhowlettrustuptwist__, correct, windows based computers need an .iso08:00
rustuptwist__even though I'm using a Mac I want the resulting bootable Usb to be usable to install Ubuntu on a computer running Windows Not OSX08:01
kevinhi08:02
=== kevin is now known as Guest91935

wafflejockrustuptwist__: yeah should work fine really ultimately your just telling the computer to boot from the USB and then Ubuntu is going to take over starting itself up from there so it shouldn't really matter what other drives or systems are on the computer08:02
wafflejockrustuptwist__: you shouldn't end up with a dmg file on the USB though it should end up with the install files after the dd operation is done08:03

azizLIGHTsomethings wrong with my keyboard? the media shortcut keys (volume up/down and next/prev track)  wont work, and neither does the shortcut ctrl+alt+t to open terminal?09:26
azizLIGHTthey were working fine before09:29
ZaitzevazizLIGHT: Open System Settings, go to Keyboard and select the Shortcuts pane. Have a look there and see if those shortcuts has been cleared or not09:30
azizLIGHTi checked open terminal in there, and its still ctrl+alt+t09:30
azizLIGHTand i even set it again, and it recognizes im poressing ctrl+alt+t09:31
azizLIGHTyet when i press it outside the dialog box, nothing opens09:31
azizLIGHTthis wasnt like this before.09:31
azizLIGHTnot sure what happened09:31
ZaitzevYou could try and search for it on ubuntuforums.org, or post there if there's no hits. Wait a little while and see if you get a response?09:33
aq2azizLIGHT: Which kernel are you running?09:33

azizLIGHT3.13.0-71-generic09:33
azizLIGHToh nvm09:34
azizLIGHTit is09:34
azizLIGHTi didnt copy anything then09:34
aq2That's quite old09:34
aq2Run sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-wily if you want to try a newer one09:34
azizLIGHTive not updated kernel intentinoally09:34
azizLIGHTive been on the same kernel since this was working, and also now the same kernel where its not working09:34
aq2and maybe that's your problem?09:34
azizLIGHTprobably not09:34
aq2the kernel communicates with your hardware09:35
aq2but if you can type its not probably its fault09:35
Zaitzevwhat if you tried it and rolled back to the one you're on, just to test? If that's possible (I have no idea)09:35
azizLIGHTthats not relaly possible right now09:35
azizLIGHTi dont have space in my /boot and its complicated for me to make space because of encryption09:36
azizLIGHTthats why i havent updated the kernel09:36
aq2I never make a separate /boot partition09:36
azizLIGHTive probably updated software, except for the kernel09:36
azizLIGHTand rebooted09:36
azizLIGHThow do i see whats been recently updated09:37
ZaitzevYou can go through update history in the software center09:37
azizLIGHThmm whats the command that lets me see keypresses09:42
azizLIGHTto see if the system recognizes what im presing on the keyboard09:42

azizLIGHThm well i can see keypresses with screenkey09:46
azizLIGHTso whats ubuntu's problem that its not honoring the keyboard shurtcuts...09:47
azizLIGHTthe keypresses are recognized, the keyboard shortcuts are set properly... so whats the problem09:47
azizLIGHTuhhhhhhhhhh i did kill -15 -1 and now everythings working09:50
azizLIGHTwhat the hell09:50
azizLIGHTwhy did that work when a restart didnt work09:51
azizLIGHTquite bizarre09:51
Zaitzevso something was blocking the keystrokes or something?09:52
azizLIGHTseems like it09:53
azizLIGHTwhatever it was, could block keystrokes even after a reboot09:54
azizLIGHTonly kililng it stopped it09:54
Zaitzevso it's a software that is trying to override the default keystrokes with its own, or something09:54
Zaitzevguess you're going to have to do some detective work trying to find the culprit09:55
azizLIGHThmmm it must be my music player09:55
azizLIGHTthat makes the most sense09:56

BluesKajkalexyco, the best method to go from 14.04 to 15.10 is a clean install13:09
aq2why to go from lts to testing??13:10
aq2doesn't make any sense to me13:10
aq2a new kernel to 14.04 fixes many problems13:10
aq2sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-wily13:11
aq2that'll get 15.10's kernel in 14.0413:11
Zaitzevmaybe that'll fix some issues that my laptop has..13:11
Zaitzevthen again, it spews all kinds of errors just after a clean install13:11
aq2No, you're not supposed to manually compile it13:11
aq2and if it doesn't work hold down left shift on startup, go to advanced options and boot with the old kernel13:12
aq2that simple13:12

tinyhippoputting the same SD card into a pi2 does boot, however13:22
tewardtinyhippo: I'm not sure the exact same SD card will work; in theory it should work (armhf still supported on the processor), but I don't have the hardware to do that test13:23

tinyhippowell, the 64bit kernel13:26
aq2ubuntu mate seems to support raspberry pi's well13:26
tinyhippoI dont really want it as a desktop, but I guess I could either remove MATE and associated packages, or just use 15.10 ARM?13:27
aq2is there really no mini isos for raspberry pis?13:28
tewardtinyhippo: I'd use 15.10, or install MATE then strip it down13:28
tewardtinyhippo: I don't know if there's a 15.10 image though.13:28
aq2stripping it down may not be that easy though13:28

cfhowlettpaco_, happy2help!15:09
k1l_paco_: it gets a updated package list from the ubuntu servers. afterwards you need to run "sudo apt full-upgrade" to install those updates15:09
fubHow can I tell my apt-get for example to use a specific interface instead of tap0?15:09
baizonpaco_: if you have scheduled checking for updates enabled, then there is no need to run that command15:09
liceoprovaciao15:10
zykotick9k1l_: re: ".. apt full-upgrade" with apt, 9 times out of 10 full-upgrade probably isn't required.  ".. apt upgrade" *will* install new packages (unlike ".. apt-get upgrade").15:10
k1l_zykotick9: are you sure about that?15:11
zykotick9k1l_: yes.15:12
cfhowlettapt upgrade and apt full-upgrade ?15:12
zykotick9k1l_: note, "full-upgrade" can remove things... while "upgrade" will NOT.15:12
k1l_zykotick9: ok. so far on apt-get upgrade didnt install updates that needed new packages installed15:13
Dewinfub: I don't know your specific setup or the best fix, but my guess is that your VPN setup is either altering routes (such that all traffic is being routed through its own route rather than a default) or altering resolv.conf (such that your system is trying to use your VPN's DNS servers to locate things on the internet at large).  You can easily test for the latter by trying ping 8.8.8.8 while connected to the VPN -- if it succeeds, your routing is fine and15:13
Dewinit's just DNS.15:13
Dewinso, in absence of a better answer, hopefully that helps you troubleshoot.15:13

You chaninload wWindows to ubuntu . IF for any reason rhe SSD fails to boot, changing the boot priority will boot Windows .17:16

EriC^^Lectus: it'll just make a "/" with no boot or home17:19
virtual_zBashing-om: I'm sure my bios supports UEFI and I have legacy enabled on BIOS. do I need something to arrange about them to install Ubuntu ?17:19
LectusEriC^^: yeah. but having a separate /home is better. my question is if the automatic method will do it17:19
EriC^^Lectus: no it wont17:19
BluesKajLectus, separate / and /home partitions are , best to use manual partitioning17:20

BluesKajaka17:20
Lectusok... so how much space for / and /home on a 750GB hard disk?17:20
Bashing-omvirtual_z: You want ubuntu installed in the same mode as Windows is installed . Makes life MUCH simpler .17:20
virtual_zok17:20
LectusI probably need /,/home and /swap... how much for each one?17:21
EriC^^Lectus: root about 20gb, swap as much as ram, and the rest home17:21
BluesKajLectus, yes and a swap if needed17:21
EriC^^Lectus: if you're using uefi then you need an efi partition etc, the installer will say17:21
Lectusyes... using uefi... this asus note came with windows preinstalled and a recovery partition17:22

B0g4r7_AHCI is what I like.  You can try it the other way and see if it makes a difference.18:17

aiI understand...but 14.04 gives me no issue whatsoever (other than SS issue) but 15.10 does not like my nVidia card. It does not work.18:18

aiI am new to Linux not an expert. Last thing I need is my nvidia issue on 15.10. I do not know how to updtae/install simple app without instructions and yet to fix a bigger problem. Anyways, if it is not possible to install/upgrade SS on 14.04 then I guess I will have to wait 16.04.18:20
virtual_zdo I need to make a partition for EFI partition for a normal ubuntu installation ?18:22

MonkeyDustai  were you able to try/use SS in 15.10 ?18:22
aiSpeaking of 16.04....I got no issues other than nVidia and some random "crash" msg that does not effect me. Speaking of nvidia...that is ONLY if I install nvidia drivers but if I use those "free" drivers (whatever they are called) it works fine.18:22
aiYes it works on 15.10 and  16.0418:22
MonkeyDustai  ok, then deal with the nvidia issue in 15.10, yu can come to this channel for it18:23

aiI have used FULL disk to install Ubuntu 15.10. I used encryption as well as encryption for Home folder. Once installed and all updates are applied I get no problem (I can use the system). Once I go in to get my nvidia drivers 358.xx installed and try to reboot i get that screen before the boot to put my password in but nothing hapens. if i let it sit for a time it will give me an error msg that cannot boot. i tried to follow the instructions to manually remove18:27
aiand install latest 361.xx drivers and that did not fix it but I managed to install. In other workds...I have to do full reinstall for it to work.18:27
aiHowever, If I do not install my nvidia drivers then at that screen that is asking for my pass before log in it is BLANK. I put my password and hit enter and then it will go to my desktop. This does not happen with my 14.04.18:29
MonkeyDustai  my advice: don't use encryption if you're just starting to learn things18:32
aiThe reason I install nvidia drivers is because without it I get heavy screen tearing while browsing, youtube and movies.18:32

tewardsolaire: it searches the entire repository list that was last downloaded - i.e. from `apt-get update`20:53
tewardsolaire: installed or not, it lists packages that match the search string20:53
tewardalso, you may wish to search on packages.ubuntu.com as well20:53
solaireok so i always want to run apt-get update && apt-cache search blah20:53
tewardsolaire: you can just run `sudo apt-get update` once a week, and still use `apt-cache search` any time after that20:54
upphello, i'm looking for the name of this ubuntu theme? https://vimeo.com/13713383720:54
tewardsolaire: it isn't necessary to update every time you're running a search20:54

solaire /etc/sources.list.d is my repository directory right?21:04
SuperFarioany1 dealing with this problem?21:04
tewardsolaire: /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* will comprise the list of repositories you have21:04
uppdrmagoo: are you sure the one on the video is numix?21:04
solaireteward: what is the diff between the two?21:05
tewardsolaire: but yes, for 'additional' repositories outside the standard Ubuntu ones, then it's in individual files (typically) in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*21:05
drmagooupp> quite sure, atleast the icon-theme.. Looks like my icons and I use numics-icons...21:05
solaireoh and /etc/sources.list is for distro officiale?21:05
tewardsolaire: sources.list is the 'ubuntu' repositories, created on install; the files in the sources.list.d/* directory area are all individual lists for individual repositories, designed to make it 'easier' to manage21:05

drmagooveXx: Any broken dependencies ? Check if there is anything in KDE settings (should be under System, then display) or try to change the resolution using xrandr...21:18
veXxdrmagoo: interesting, if i use the display manager for kde, while limited (in options) it scales properly21:20

mercerhi hello, I have a problem... I have a external data drive that (I guess) has been disconnected without being remounted, the problem is it has been renamed 3 times automatically under /media   as /media/New Volume1  and  /media/New Volume2  how can I change it back to /media/New Volume  so I can get everything to work properly?21:40
akikmercer: is it a ext3/ext4 file system?21:42
mercer1 sec i'll check21:43
mercerit's ntfs21:44
akikwith ext3/ext4 it is the volume label that is used21:44
merceryes...21:44
mercerlike my internal drives21:45
akikmaybe you need to change its volume label to New Volume in windows21:45
k1ldcz: press "uparrow". that will show the last commands21:45
merceri don't run windowsw21:45
akikmercer: maybe you can change it in gparted21:47
mercerI'm in gparted now21:47
mercerthe label is New Volume but it is mounted to /media/New Volume2  so I get all kinds of problems with programs21:48
akikoh there's ntfslabel in ubuntu21:49
akikntfsprogs package21:50
mercerwould changing the UUID help or do I not know what I am talking about?21:50
akikit is most probably the label, not uuid21:51
mercerright21:51
akiki have no idea why it keeps changing on you21:51
mercerok the device and the label are the same but it is remounted to a different directory under /media21:52
mercerso do you think remounting the drive back to the /New Volume  directory might work?21:55
akikmercer: it should be /media/username/foo ?21:55

fooIn OS X, in Terminal, connected to a screen on a Linux machine, in a venv, in python CLI, I press up arrow and I see this: ^[[A    ... how do I fix this so the up arrow actually works? I forget if it's Terminal, or screen, or python, heh.22:14
merceri mean changed to /New Volume222:14

B0g4r7_foo, have a look at the TERM env variable maybe.22:14
B0g4r7_Try setting it to some different values and see what happens.22:15
B0g4r7_mercer, the quick hack would be a symlink.  ln -s "/media/superuser/New Volume2" "/media/superuser/New Volume"22:17
B0g4r7_Just remember to remove the symlink later when you no longer need it.22:17

readonlyomgkil its a live system22:28
readonlyomgit boots. but boots with / being read only.22:29
k1lreadonlyomg: that is not an issue22:29
B0g4r7_mercer, if there are spaces in the name you'll need to enclose it in quotes or escape it using backslashes or such.22:29
k1lreadonlyomg: a live system is not writable.22:29
readonlyomgwait.. i dont mean live as in cd22:29
readonlyomgi mean live as in this is my active system22:29
Bashing-ommercer: Space in the file name ? linux sees a space as a delimiter , and must be 'escaped' .22:30
B0g4r7_readonlyomg, have you checked dmesg and the system log for clues about why it's mounting readonly?22:30
mercerit says the directory is not empty but I have the volume unplugged and I can't cd into it22:30
k1lreadonlyomg: "mount | nc termbin.com 9999"22:30
readonlyomgB0g4r7_: yessir and it only states that ATA6 was having issues. which is my sdd not my sda22:31
mercermaybe there is a gui util besides gparted that can remove stuff like this22:31
B0g4r7_mercer, so something's still mounted that you want unmounted, it sounds like.  Explore the 'mount' and 'umount22:31
B0g4r7_' commands.22:31

Sazpaimon_already installed and newest version23:22
Sazpaimon_and I confirmed that I have ntfsresize, ntfsfix, etc23:22
TJ-Sazpaimon_: have you considered the report may be misleading; the real issue may be that the NTFS volume dirty flag is set so the ntfs tools won't touch it23:23
Madhumper69Turns out I was missing a package called python-gobject; installed it and gufw works flawlessly.23:23
k1lSazpaimon_: what is the exact errormessage?23:23
Sazpaimon_the windows install was cleanly shut down23:23
anonimbonjour23:23
k1lSazpaimon_: windows doesnt "cleanly unmount" on shutdown since some time. due to simulate a faster boot time23:24
Sazpaimon_Unable to read the contents of this file system! Because of this some operations may be unavailable. The cause might be a missing software package. The following list of software packages is required for ntfs file system support: ntfsprogs / ntfs-3g.23:24
k1lSazpaimon_: so please dont think we think you are dumb. but we just need to work through all known issues23:24
Sazpaimon_so if this is the system partition, how do I cleanly unmount it when shutting down windows?23:25

lesleyHow do I make it so I don't have to enter my password all the time?23:31
k1llesley: you dont have to all the time. it keep the password for 15 minutes in terminal23:31
lesleyWhy do I get a system problem on startup on a nearly fresh install?23:32
lesleyHow can I stop Ubuntu from locking up whenever I log out?23:32
k1llesley: that seems to depend on your exact hardware  and software setup.23:33
lesleyIs there any way to extend that time period?23:33
lesleyOkay?23:33
k1llesley: on terminal?23:34
lesleyHow do I fix it then, by buying a new laptop?23:34
brycemlyou can remove the password requirement from sudo, I don't recommend it though http://askubuntu.com/questions/192050/how-to-run-sudo-command-with-no-password23:34
lesleyEverywhere.23:34
Sazpaimon_okay, i scheduled a cluster check, time to reboot and see if that fixes it23:34
k1llesley: that is just a plain stupid idea23:34
lesleyWhy?23:34
k1llesley: because its a big part of the security setup on ubuntu23:34
lesleyAgainst whom?23:35
B0g4r7_Wow, this system boots way quicker when it's not trying to also synchronize the underlying raid.23:35
k1llesley: against anyone haveing hardware or software access to your machine.23:35
lesleySo, ssh?23:36
k1llesley: i wonder what you are doing all the day that needs root permissions23:36
lesleyNone of your business.23:37
TJ-lesley: "sudo -i"23:37
lesleyTJ- I what about window prompts?23:37
TJ-lesley: huh? what do you mean?23:38
TJ-lesley: sudo is for use in a terminal shell, not in the GUI23:39
TJ-lesley: pkexec/gksudo are/were the things to use in the GUI23:39
B0g4r7_Maybe there's a pam module that lets you auth using a smartcard or something.23:42
lesleyMaybe... or maybe I should choose another distro, one I can actually use.23:44
lesleyInstead of having to autjenticate myself all the time.23:44
k1lif you dont like the ubuntu way, ubuntu is the wrong distribution to start with.23:44
lesleyObviously.23:45
B0g4r7_Don't all the OSs ask the user to authenticate fairly routinely these days?23:45
TJ-lesley: you can add an entry to the sudoers file to not require a password, with NOPASSWD23:45
lesleyDefine "routinely".23:45
B0g4r7_Depends what you're doing, but at least daily.23:45
B0g4r7_I suppose you could run MacOS 9.  That won't ask you to auth all the time.23:46
lesleyOh, can I?23:46
effectnetwhats a good program to burn dvd's?23:47
Sazpaimon_alright, looks like a full chkdsk seemed to do the trick23:47
k1li still wonder what one needs to run with root permissions on the gui all the time. but there are ways to use NOPASSWD.23:48
lesleyWays to use NOPASSWD - huh?23:49
k1llesley: you are way to vague to get specific help. i told you that right on your first partial picture screenshot, that didnt give any informations to help you.23:50
brycemlxfburn works good for me for burning discs, or do you mean video dvd's?23:50
B0g4r7_There are probably ways to have a system that never asks for a password ever, but the system will probably give a bit of resistance to any efforts to make it like that, and will surely warn that doing so is a bad idea.23:50
k1leffectnet: brasero?23:50
effectnetk23:51
B0g4r7_brasero works wall for me for my disc writing needs.23:51
B0g4r7_works well too23:51
slavka`hey guys... i want to have a little script running in the background to watch all files, directories and subdirectories for file size changes and then run a command on those files..23:55
slavka`how can i do that?23:55
brycemlslavka: I would look at inotify23:57
k1lyep, inotify is for looking at changes of files.23:58
TJ-slavka`: in a script, inotifywatch or inotifywait depending on exactly what you need23:59
