[00:05] <pcurtday> hola.
[00:07] <PCD_> anyone know how Unity 8's looking?
[00:22] <FManTropyx> why does Ubuntu tell me a file does not exist, when it does?
[00:23] <EriC^^> which file?
[00:23] <Zren> Hmmm, if I follow ubuntu's default crontab, this should work correctly right (to auto run scripts inside it)
[00:23] <FManTropyx> an executable compiled on a different system, but I haven't installed gcc on this one, so is it a missing library issue?
[00:24] <Zren> crontab -e ...then... @hourly ( cd ~ && run-parts --report /home/$USER/.config/cron.hourly )
[00:24] <evilbug> i have a raspberry pi i'm using as a samba share on my network. os x sees it, windows 10 sees it, how can i get ubuntu to make it show up in the file manager?
[00:24] <EriC^^> FManTropyx: which library does it say is missing?
[00:25] <FManTropyx> it doesn't: it claims the file itself doesn't exist
[00:26] <EriC^^> FManTropyx: ls -l /path/to/file shows it?
[00:27] <FManTropyx> yes
[00:27] <FManTropyx> makes no sense
[00:27] <EriC^^> FManTropyx: try chmod u+x /path/to/file
[00:27] <EriC^^> then just "/path/to/file"
[00:29] <stefxu12_> test
[00:32] <FManTropyx> I just tested what happens, when I clear the x flag and then it says "Permission denied", when I try to run it, so the file is real - yet, when I set u+x again: No such file or directory!!
[00:35] <EriC^^> pastebin it
[00:35] <EriC^^> ls -l /path/to/file; chmod u+x /path/to/file; /path/to/file
[00:35] <EriC^^> !paste
[00:36] <guideX> my ubuntu seems kind of slow
[01:00] <Hydr0p0nX> anyone know how to get udf dvds to automount ?
[01:04] <Jordan_U> Hydr0p0nX: What happens when you insert the DVD?
[01:20] <wunderhacker> hello, i was wondering if ubuntu server 14.04 listens on its ip for ssh by default
[01:20] <cfhowlett> !server | wunderhacker
[01:36] <captian_nexus> hi
[01:37] <captian_nexus> hello i am new
[01:44] <happyfr0gg> I am looking for a website that teaches programming through game play. My memory of it escapes me.
[01:44] <Hydr0p0nX> Jordan_U: dmesg shows it trying to mount, then it's not mounted, no errors, just not mounted... Bluray mounts fine, and manually running mount works on UDF blurays
[01:45] <happyfr0gg> I tried using bing and google but nothing.
[01:47] <Hydr0p0nX> happyfr0gg: https://codecombat.com/
[01:47] <Superbest> My server can ping eg. 8.8.8.8 but ping www.google.com doesn't work, can someone help me troubleshoot and fix it?
[01:48] <cfhowlett> !server | Superbest
[01:49] <happyfr0gg> Hydr0p0nX - thanks. I will try that one.
[01:49] <Superbest> cfhowlett, it's not ubuntu server, I'm using the desktop version
[01:49] <Superbest> cfhowlett, dunno if that matters, I'll ask in #ubuntu-server too though
[01:57] <Ben64> Superbest: well you said "my server" which sort of implies server
[01:57] <Superbest> well, is the channel for ubuntu used on a server, or specifically ubuntu server?
[01:58] <Ben64> ubuntu server
[01:58] <elGALL0> how do i add permissions to a drive? SickGear can't read or write to an internal drive. drive is ntfs, ftsb option is defaults
[01:58] <elGALL0> ubuntu 14.04
[01:58] <elGALL0> server
[01:58] <Ben64> elGALL0: what is sickgear
[01:59] <elGALL0> a web based tv show downloader like sonarr, sickbeard, sickrage
[01:59] <elGALL0> uses port 8081
[01:59] <Ben64> is it running as your user
[02:00] <elGALL0> eh, how do i check that?
[02:00] <Ben64> ps aux maybe
[02:00] <elGALL0> its in /opt/SickGear
[02:01] <Jordan_U> Hydr0p0nX: Please pastebin your dmesg from after anvattempted auto mount then a manual mount.
[02:01] <elGALL0> yes under my user
[02:01] <Ben64> can you write to the drive
[02:01] <DirtyCajun> elGALL0:  you need to check the service running sickgear and see what user you specified
[02:03] <elGALL0> dammit,
[02:04] <elGALL0> so before i restart ubuntu i go to system settings and remove password to log in without password. then i add a password
[02:04] <elGALL0> apparently i typed it in wrong twice
[02:04] <elGALL0> anyway to reset it? i only have one user on this machine
[02:05] <Ben64> yep, you need to reboot in recovery mode
[02:05] <Ben64> !lostpassword | elGALL0
[02:18] <Guest19157> hello everyone
[02:18] <Guest19157> I am facing issue with powering off the computer
[02:20] <Guest19157> anyone here?
[02:22] <Hydr0p0nX> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15726886/
[02:25] <eftm> some opencv files compiled during installation for their python library include <ffmpeg/avformat.h>, and *as they are now* these headers files all actually reside under /usr/lib/<avlibraryname>/<avlibraryfiles>
[02:25] <eftm> how would i collect them all under the ffmpeg label if they have files that are named the same (like version.h)?
[02:25] <Hydr0p0nX> Jordan_U: sorry, been cooking/eating
[02:26] <eftm> or how else would i fix the library organization so they can be recognized by the <ffmpeg/[[avlibraryname.h]]> format? my initial thought was to make the ffmpeg folder and provide symlinks to all of them, but they appear to also need whatever other files belong in each of their current folders
[02:28] <ash_workz> anyone else see a block with 4 unicodes chars in it for symbols on websites like regex101.com often?
[02:29]  * mattwj2002 ponders if since Windows is going to support bash soon if Linux is going to support msdos soon
[02:29] <mattwj2002> :)
[02:34] <django_> how can i see how much space i have left
[02:35] <Hydr0p0nX> df -h
[02:35] <rud0lf> when i want to associate Evince with .pdf in file properties menu, it does nothing (default is imagemagick)
[02:36] <django_> Hydr0p0nX, i have a dual boot
[02:36] <django_> i just wanna se my ubuntu
[02:36] <rud0lf> just blinks and imagemagick is still in as Default Program
[02:38] <Hydr0p0nX> django_: do you know what partition is running windows?
[02:38] <django_> the bigger one is windows lol
[02:38] <django_> http://i.imgur.com/ldzNphj.png
[02:39] <mattwj2002> sudo fdisk -l
[02:39] <mattwj2002> ?
[02:41] <Hydr0p0nX> django_: the one that says mounted on / is the root partition
[02:41] <mattwj2002> what about the mount -a
[02:41] <mattwj2002> ?
[02:41] <mattwj2002> that should show the filesystem types
[02:42] <mattwj2002> ntfs versus ext2/3/4
[02:43] <Hydr0p0nX> mount -a mounts all partitions in /etc/fstab, mount, without option, shows what's mounted
[02:43] <mattwj2002> oops thanks for the correction
[02:43] <mattwj2002> :)
[02:45] <komadrjja> hi?
[02:46] <mattwj2002> hi komadrjja
[03:08] <Zren> Is $USER not set in crontab commands? Bleh.
[03:09] <MrGarlic> what do you do when you installed a copy of linux using ethernet and it somehow did not install wireless driver
[03:14] <Hydr0p0nX> MrGarlic: plug in the ethernet?
[03:14] <MrGarlic> Hydr0p0nX: ethernet is plugged in, driver for wifi on ubuntu isn't automatically installed
[03:15] <ash_workz> anyone else see a block with 4 unicodes chars in it for symbols on websites like regex101.com often?
[03:15] <HetroErectus> get a $2 usb wifi plug like i did from china
[03:15] <HetroErectus> put that in.. and voila.. it works
[03:15] <HetroErectus> 0,- in postage
[03:15] <HetroErectus> ebay ofcourse
[03:16] <Hydr0p0nX> MrGarlic: what brand/model wifi adapter?
[03:21] <MrGarlic> Hydr0p0nX: Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205
[03:26] <Hydr0p0nX> does dmesg show anything?
[03:28] <mr_seans> Ok guys, I'm going insane trying to figure this out.  Bluetooth headphones.  Paired and connected as bluetooth headset.  Device shows connected as headset and paired.  pauvcontrol -> output devices shows PBT99 (headset - plugged in) as well as Built In Analog Stereo.  All sound plays via speakers, not the headset.
[03:28] <mr_seans> No idea what the hell I am doing wrong here.
[03:30] <mr_seans> http://i.imgur.com/mKNl1aY.png (Screencap if it helps)
[03:31] <mr_seans> I must be missing something really simple - how do I get the thing to stop using my built in speakers and use the bluetooth headset?
[03:34] <Rhorse> mr_seans: choose sound device in alsamixer or in sound setup.
[03:35] <mr_seans> Rhorse, Oh man, pavucontrol is a mess sometimes - finally got it, just had to be smart enough to select it in Playback

[04:07] <koudelkaa> Hello people, how can i report issues with ubuntu packages?
[04:08] <koudelkaa> I'm using 16.04 beta and I found the rocksdb4.1 library to be problematic, I think it's compiled to native instructions of the build server, so when i run it on my machine i get illegal instruction error
[04:09] <koudelkaa> compiling and installing from rocksdb github repository does not yield this error
[04:10] <koudelkaa> by default rocksdb is compiled in a non portable way, so I think the ubuntu build script hasn't enable portability of the shared library
[04:23] <seeit> is google.com youtube.com down for anyone else?
[04:24] <lotuspsychje> seeit: no, ask your real ubuntu question please?
[04:24] <seeit> what if I can't connect to google.com from ubuntu
[04:25] <seeit> i get a server not found in firefox
[04:26] <lotuspsychje> seeit: cable? wifi? ubuntu version?
[04:27] <seeit> seems its local to this box, google.com is unknown host of this box, but if i ssh into a server it resolves, weird
[04:28] <Jordan_U> seeit: If it only affects some websites then it's probably a problem with your ISP's DNS servers. Try using 8.8.8.8 as a DNS server.
[04:28] <seeit> ok
[04:29] <seeit> yeah seems its my internet providers dns
[04:40] <procyon_ember> How may I get the version and flavor of *buntu with a shell script?
[04:42] <davido> lsb_release -a
[04:45] <procyon_ember> davido: That's the version, thanks. How about the flavor?
[04:46] <davido> by flavor do you mean like xubuntu, lubuntu, etc?
[04:48] <davido> you could cat /proc/version
[04:50] <G__81> Hi I am using Ubuntu 16.04 beta 2 with everything up to date. The issue i see is that, when i open gnome-terminal and i have multiple tabs open, the current one does not get highlighted properly. In the default gnome there is an underline but in ubuntu unity its quite difficult to find out which is the current tab. Is there any solution to highlight that ?
[04:50] <luomio> hey guys, I've got a problem
[04:50] <G__81> any help on this is greatly appreciated
[04:51] <lotuspsychje> G__81: #ubuntu+1 for xenial please
[04:51] <G__81> oh ok
[04:51] <G__81> thanks
[04:51] <luomio> When I reboot the system using 'reboot' or 'shutdown -r now', sometimes the shutdown process was got aborted
[04:51] <luomio> like the userspace process killing did not got finished, I could even ssh to the machine
[04:52] <luomio> and I can shutdown/reboot system with a second 'reboot/shutdown' command
[04:52] <luomio> any suggestions ??
[04:53] <procyon_ember> davido: I'd like to reliably distinguish between [klx]?ubuntu at least.
[04:53] <Jordan_U> procyon_ember: What is your end goal?
[04:54] <procyon_ember> Jordan_U: To print the version and flavor of *buntu.
[04:54] <davido> cat /var/log/installer/media-info
[04:55] <Jordan_U> procyon_ember: That isn't an end goal.
[04:56] <procyon_ember> Sorry Jordan_U, what do you mean?
[04:56] <davido> well, for example, why is it useful to know programatically?
[04:56] <procyon_ember> Because it answers the question of which version and flavor of *buntu.
[04:57] <procyon_ember> Sometimes I want to know.
[04:57] <Jordan_U> procyon_ember: http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#goal
[04:57] <procyon_ember> Jordan_U: I've read it several times.
[04:57] <procyon_ember> Is this your way of telling me that I don't *really* need to know?
[04:59] <Jordan_U> procyon_ember: No, it's my way of asking you why you want to know because it's not always a simple question to answer and different approaches could be good for different purposes.
[05:01] <procyon_ember> Is it reliable?
[05:01] <procyon_ember> By that I mean, will it be there in 5 years?
[05:01] <procyon_ember> davido: Thanks for that. I didn't know about it.
[05:02] <davido> See, that's why  words like "reliable" are not useful.  Reliable to me means something else.
[05:02] <davido> it's a matter of perspective.
[05:02] <davido> or context.
[05:02] <davido> anyway, glad that last one worked.
[05:05] <Jordan_U> procyon_ember: That only tells you what installation media was used. I for example installed my current machine with Ubuntu GNOME, then switched to XFCE afterward due to hardware problems with the GPU.
[05:05] <procyon_ember> davido: what else?
[05:06] <davido> i'm a fan of duck-typing. if it quacks, it is.  So this gets back to the purpose of knowing.  If it's so that software can install a particular way, then look at what specific needs the software has, and check for those requisites.
[05:07] <procyon_ember> davido: Nothing of the sort.
[05:07] <procyon_ember> Jordan_U: Which installation media is very useful. I wish I had asked for exactly that :)
[05:08] <procyon_ember> It might be useful to also know which session manager, and window manager.
[05:08] <procyon_ember> Maybe not so much though.
[05:09] <Jordan_U> procyon_ember: If you had started by telling us what you wanted this for we may have offered you exactly that (or a better for you solution that we haven't yet given) straight away, instead of wasting time pulling teeth.
[05:09] <davido> yeah, i'm kinda done.
[05:09] <procyon_ember> Too bad I'm so dumb I worded my question poorly.
[05:10] <procyon_ember> Please don't take it so hard folks.
[05:10] <davido> Not hard. I've just lost interest in guessing what solution will be most useful in solving a problem that is not clearly defined.
[05:10] <lotuspsychje> procyon_ember: relevant info is crucial for getting your issue solved
[05:10] <Jordan_U> procyon_ember: I'm not trying to say that you're dumb, but you do appear to be oddly stubborn about not telling us your goal, and it is wasting our time.
[05:10] <themill> and after half an hour, still no-one knows what you're actually trying to do and so you've still not actually received any help
[05:11] <procyon_ember> I got exactly the help I needed, thanks.
[05:11] <procyon_ember> I don't understand why you are all so angry at me.
[05:11] <themill> you have no idea how frustrating your approach to seeking help is
[05:12] <procyon_ember> I just want to know what version and flavor of *buntu my script is running on. That's everything I needed.
[05:12] <procyon_ember> themill: You're right. I don't understand why it would be frustrating to you at all.
[05:12] <lotuspsychje> !details | procyon_ember to get the best help
[05:13] <procyon_ember> I got the help I needed. I'm thankful.
[05:13] <themill> procyon_ember: people are here to help you and they are volunteering their time to do so. We all know you've been given no help at all and that you are not engineering anything that will be robust and useful.
[05:13] <Jordan_U> procyon_ember: If you have the information you need then let's please just move on so as to not waste more time. Though if this becomes a pattern with you in the future you may find yourself removed from the channel.
[05:13] <procyon_ember> Thank you .
[05:14] <procyon_ember> Jordan_U: As you see fit. I just don't understand why you are all so angry at my question  :(\
[05:14] <procyon_ember> I know I didn't word it perfectly. Sorry about that.
[05:15]  * procyon_ember back to scripting
[05:15] <raymond_> who
[05:16] <raymond_> what happend
[05:16] <raymond_> ?
[05:16] <Jordan_U> raymond_: A discussion which has ended. You can read the channel logs if you're really interested.
[05:45] <varaindemian> a package for compiling code for assembly 8086?
[05:45] <varaindemian> an emulator for that program?
[05:45] <varaindemian> for that cpu**
[05:46] <Jordan_U> varaindemian: What is your end goal? Are you trying to compile code or assemble it?
[05:48] <varaindemian> Jordan_U, compile and assemble. I am looking for a native tool like emu8086 for windows..
[05:49] <Fudge> scrollingback is painful
[05:50] <varaindemian> Fudge, huh
[05:52] <Jordan_U> varaindemian: qemu
[05:54] <Jordan_U> varaindemian: You should be able to get gcc to stick to only 8086 instructions, but what OS are you going to be targeting? Why do you want to write programs for ancient hardware you don't even have?
[05:56] <varaindemian> Jordan_U, it's something didactic. This is how we learn about cpu arhitecture and assembly language
[05:58] <raul> Does anybody know if Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is going to be the last 32bit release ever? I have read about it at some websites. I will thank your answer.
[06:00] <lotuspsychje> raul: #ubuntu+1 for 16.06 questions please
[06:02] <lotuspsychje> raul: *16.04
[06:06] <raul> Ok. Thanks.
[06:07] <varaindemian> Jordan_U, I installed qemu. How do I start it?
[06:07] <dm_comp> lotuspsychje: that wasn't a 16.04 specific question
[06:07] <dm_comp> more of a ubuntu in general question
[06:08] <lotuspsychje> dm_comp: this channel isnt for discusions, but support issues
[06:08] <lotuspsychje> !qemu | varaindemian
[06:10] <G__81> I am running Ubuntu 14.04 and i see the the battery gets discharged faster when i am using Unity than when i am using Gnome.
[06:10] <G__81> why is that ?
[06:10] <G__81> i am already running tlp
[06:11] <G__81> but i still see the battery discharge is faster
[06:11] <dm_comp> lotuspsychje: it could be for support reasons too.
[06:12] <lotuspsychje> dm_comp: then the user should ask more specific question about it, but right now it doesnt really belong here
[06:13] <lotuspsychje> dm_comp: we have a nice #ubuntu-discuss for such
[06:14] <Jordan_U> varaindemian: Also look into the "bcc" package. "apt show bcc" for a description.
[06:31] <Jordan_U> varaindemian: Did you see my last message (about bcc)?
[06:44] <deathslocus> Is there anyway to run an older kernel module (3.16.0-30) on a newer kernel without recompiling?
[06:44] <ikonia> deathslocus: what are the two kernel versions
[06:45] <ikonia> bottom line is though "it's a bad idea"
[06:45] <deathslocus> 3.16.0-30 and anything above 4.3
[06:45] <ikonia> why would you want to do that ?
[06:45] <ikonia> nah, don't mix modules like that
[06:45] <deathslocus> I have a kernel module for touch drivers from china that is locked to 3.16.0-30 and they refuse to give up the source code
[06:45] <deathslocus> I also have skylake integrated graphics that I need to be able to run properly
[06:46] <ikonia> bin that device then, and don't buy from companies that don't support linux (appreciate thats a hard stance)
[06:46] <deathslocus> I wish I could but the company won't sign off on any changes
[06:46] <deathslocus> They already committed to 100 units fml
[06:46] <ikonia> you'll need to talk to your company then
[06:47] <ikonia> (or talk to the vendor and ask them to update the binary module)
[06:47] <deathslocus> hahaha I did and they asked for $3500 USD and said it would take 25 days
[06:47] <ikonia> ok, so there is your answer
[06:48] <deathslocus> The company has also sold 5 of the units for install in 2 weeks
[06:48] <Jordan_U> deathslocus: Of course they are legally obligated to provide the source, which unfortunately gets you nowhere practically.
[06:49] <deathslocus> Yeah, they only let you talk to people in Sales who don't understand anything about their own product
[06:49] <ikonia> deathslocus: without being rude - research of the devices your company buys and realistic responses to problems
[06:49] <ikonia> pay the money and delay roll out, or swap devices
[06:49] <ikonia> those are your options
[06:50] <deathslocus> I don't even trust that they'd deliver a recompiled driver
[06:50] <deathslocus> There are a few companies who say it's their proprietary company info
[06:50] <ikonia> thats up to you
[06:50] <Jordan_U> deathslocus: Are there any similar devices made by the same company for which reverse engineered open drivers have been added to linux? If so it *may* be as simple as adding a pciid to the list of hardware the driver supports (though that's a long shot).
[06:51] <deathslocus> Jordan_U: I think it's all based off the MTouch driver
[06:52] <Jordan_U> deathslocus: I think there are reputable companies / people who you could send money and hardware to to get Free drivers developed, and included in the mainline kernel.
[06:52] <ikonia> I don't think thats realistic
[06:53] <ikonia> and not a route I'd suggest you even look to
[06:57] <calamari> why not just stay on 3.16?
[06:58] <ikonia> 16.04 doesn't have 3.16
[06:58] <ikonia> I assume he's planning the move to 16.04
[06:58] <calamari> you can compile it though
[06:58] <ikonia> that would be pretty pointless
[06:58] <calamari> why
[06:58] <ikonia> you'd break the core of the LTS build and have to maintain and support it yourself
[06:59] <calamari> then he'd have 16.04 and 3.16
[06:59] <ikonia> whcih a.) woudln't be supported by ubuntu b.) he'd have to maintain it himself
[06:59] <Redbeardt> Can someone direct me to where I can download an Ubuntu 16 LTS daily LiveCD?
[06:59] <lotuspsychje> Redbeardt: #ubuntu+1
[06:59] <ikonia> Redbeardt: join #ubuntu+1 channel and read the topic
[06:59] <deathslocus> calamari: we can't use the Skylake graphics properly on 3.16
[06:59] <Redbeardt> kk thanks
[07:02] <deathslocus> I could live with having to maintain 3.16 for awhile but the graphics performance is terrible without i915 working properly

[07:13] <AstroLib> Just a sort of CV/Resume kind of website
[07:14] <someone235> Hi, I have a problem: I have a dual boot. In my windows I can connect to my wifi, but in my ubuntu I can't (it shows the spot, but doesn't succeed to connect). Anyone knows what the problem could be?
[07:14] <AstroLib> do you have Alienware?
[07:15] <deathslocus> AstroLib: I'd personally use virtual machines to separate them but it might be a bit overkill for what you are trying to do
[07:16] <someone235> AstroLib, No, I have asus G752 vt. The wifi worked till yesterday.
[07:16] <AstroLib> I'm an undergrad but I'm looking to learn about back-end, server-side stuff as well as security
[07:16] <deathslocus> Easiest way I can think of right now would be to setup a Samba share on the machine in your user directory for backups and install apache server
[07:16] <AstroLib> Is a VM how it might be done in industry?
[07:17] <deathslocus> I wouldn't know it's just we use VM's for everything here
[07:17] <AstroLib> someone235: you have a Killer Network card?
[07:17] <AstroLib> deathslocus: I see. What is a Samba share?
[07:18] <auronandace> !samba | AstroLib
[07:20] <someone235> AstroLib, lspci says I have "Intel corporation wireless"
[07:20] <AstroLib> aurondace: thanks, I didn't know that was a feature, also thanks for the link
[07:20] <calamari> someone235: in ubuntu your wireless was working fine until yesterday?
[07:21] <someone235> calamari, yes
[07:21] <AstroLib> someone235: hm, I don't know, for me it's because I missing the Network adapter driver. It works fine when I use a USB WiFi card (which I made sure had linux drivers)
[07:21] <auronandace> AstroLib: you can also use the tab key in most irc clients to autocomplete nicks
[07:22] <calamari> someone235: have you upgraded any packages? or.. has the wi-fi password changed?
[07:23] <someone235> calamari, I did partial upgrade
[07:23] <calamari> ah
[07:23] <calamari> depending on how you upgraded, there might be a history log of affected packages
[07:24] <AstroLib> auronandace: sweet. Linux is friggin wonderful. I don't even touch my mouse anymore
[07:24] <someone235> calamari, I've updated with the gui
[07:24] <AstroLib> cept for firefox
[07:25] <AstroLib> !samba | AstroLib
[07:25] <calamari> someone235: Take a look here and see if it looks familiar: /var/log/apt/history.log
[07:26] <varaindemian> Jordan_U, thx
[07:26] <Jordan_U> varaindemian: You're welcome.
[07:29] <someone235> calamari, What do I need to check there?
[07:30] <calamari> someone235: it could be that one of the upgraded packages caused your problems
[07:31] <calamari> it could get tricky though, because it might also be one of the script associated with the package, and not the binaries themselves
[07:31] <someone235> calamari, http://pastie.org/private/6f1mmytlxeb2fa8wyvtmhw
[07:32] <someone235> calamari, none of the packages looks like it could affect wifi somehow
[07:34] <towlie> how do I see how much free space i have on my main partition. I only use 1 for Ubuntu and a swap
[07:35] <auronandace> towlie: if you want a graphical representation you could use gparted
[07:35] <someone235> towlie, use "df -h" in command line
[07:36] <calamari> someone235: a lot of those packages don't show up in the ubuntu package search.. PPA?
[07:36] <someone235> calamari, yes. It's related to ethereum (some cryptcoin)
[07:36] <someone235> calamari, yes. It's related to ethereum (a cryptcoin)
[07:36] <calamari> ok
[07:37] <calamari> sorry, maybe someone else has ideas
[07:46] <damieu> what the fuck
[07:47] <WoodyPC> Hey yall, I am trying to hook up my Ubuntu desktop to my Toshiba HD TV using an HDMI cable. The video is awesome, but there is "no sound" coming out of the tv speakers. What am I doing wrong? OR What am I not doing?
[07:51] <baizon> WoodyPC: check the sound settings if you output is set to hdmi
[07:52] <WoodyPC> baizon: Do I need to restart the desktop to allow it to find the hdmi input?
[07:52] <ikonia> shouldn't
[07:53] <ikonia> the video cards should be hot plug on ports
[07:55] <WoodyPC> ikonia: the only sound listed is Analog.
[07:56] <ikonia> have a look if the sound mixer can see the hdmi output
[07:56] <WoodyPC> how do I do that?
[07:57] <ikonia> the sound mixer in the top right hand corner
[07:57] <ikonia> WoodyPC: have a quick scan on https://help.ubuntu.com it talks through the basics of setting up your sound card
[07:57] <ikonia> maybe worth using that as a starting point
[07:58] <WoodyPC> ok
[08:09] <redtuxedocash> hello
[08:09] <redtuxedocash> anyone here?
[08:09] <baizon> redtuxedocash: hello
[08:10] <redtuxedocash> i have an old laptop specs
[08:10] <redtuxedocash> what do you recommend to make ubuntu lightweight?
[08:10] <redtuxedocash> i have lubuntu DE
[08:11] <redtuxedocash> but still doesnt cut
[08:11] <redtuxedocash> i need lighter performance
[08:11] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: What specifically would you like "lighter"? Where are you noticing slowness?
[08:12] <auronandace> redtuxedocash: you could try a window manager rather than a desktop environment, but in the end you are relying on applications, perhaps the apps are to heavy for your system...
[08:14] <redtuxedocash> i need to have multi tasking performance
[08:14] <redtuxedocash> i dont think i have heavy apps to run on my desktop
[08:15] <redtuxedocash> usual browsing and stuff make it very hard to breathe
[08:15] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: Unfortunately the web is a pretty heavy place right now, and there's not much that can be done about that. Try noscript to disable javascript.
[08:15] <auronandace> redtuxedocash: the most popular browsers (firefox and chrome) i would consider to be heavy apps
[08:16] <redtuxedocash> auronandace: i agree
[08:16] <redtuxedocash> it is truly heavy sometimes
[08:16] <redtuxedocash> do you have any idea for some other reliable browsers?
[08:17] <EriC^^> iweasel is light
[08:17] <bazhang> iceweasel
[08:18] <auronandace> redtuxedocash: it depends on your browsing expectations but I don't really think there is much choice out there if you frequent sites that rely on flash or javascript
[08:18] <wolff> h
[08:18] <redtuxedocash> alright
[08:19] <redtuxedocash> another question is, does ubuntu have such IDM on windows? internet download manager?
[08:19] <wolff> h
[08:19] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: The problem is that you're running *applications* that happen to be written in javascript and html. You can't just make a "lighter" web browser because it's not the browser that's heavy, it's the web applications the browser is running. Have you tried disabling javascript?
[08:19] <auronandace> redtuxedocash: it doesn't hurt to try other browsers though, you could give midori a try
[08:19] <redtuxedocash> i use aria2 but it seems not cool
[08:19] <wolff> h
[08:20] <V7> Guys ... is here any option, way to open *.fon extension in ubuntu ?
[08:20] <redtuxedocash> auronandace: i agree
[08:20] <wolff> type in terminal, sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tahutek-team/prozilla, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get install prozilla. –
[08:21] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: There are multiple "download managers" available for Ubuntu. I have no experience with IDM, but my favorite download manager on any platform is wget. wget may not suit you if you want a GUI though (it's entirely terminal based).
[08:21] <wolff> yesç
[08:22] <wolff> 63
[08:22] <wolff> down vote
[08:22] <wolff> I would recommend the wget command line utility which is absolutely awesome!
[08:22] <redtuxedocash> Jordan_U: i like GUI, but sometimes i would rather having such app to act directly towards some files and videos i am watching and i can also download it there
[08:22] <redtuxedocash> is it easy to use it?
[08:22] <wolff> wget is a GNU free software package that is used for retrieving files over the web. If you have got it installed, then all you have to do is to get the download link and use wget to download it.
[08:22] <redtuxedocash> but i have no problems with terminal
[08:23] <wolff> In order to get the download link, right click on whichever download you want in the firefox download manager. There will be an option ‘copy download link’. Click on it
[08:23] <redtuxedocash> wolff: sure i gotit
[08:24] <wolff> Then open a terminal and go to whichever folder you want the file downloaded to. Assuming it is in the Desktop, type the following command at the prompt
[08:24] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: The most basic usage is "wget http://some_website/foo.bar" to download a file. Add "-c" to continue a file you've already started earlier (I just always include "-c", since there is no harm in including it when starting a file).
[08:24] <wolff> wget <paste your download link here>
[08:24] <wolff> Now even if it gets stuck in the middle, you can resume from wherever it was interrupted by giving the option -c to wget. That is, the command will be like
[08:24] <wolff> wget -c <paste your download link here>
[08:24] <redtuxedocash> nice
[08:25] <redtuxedocash> should i put some commands to see the download progress?
[08:25] <redtuxedocash> wget -c -i?
[08:25] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: It shows the progress by default.
[08:25] <redtuxedocash> Jordan_U: alright
[08:25] <redtuxedocash> let me try
[08:26] <redtuxedocash> and to pause?
[08:26] <redtuxedocash> download?
[08:26] <wolff> you can use Axel
[08:27] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: One thing to note though, URLs often contain characters that the shell considers special (like '&', which will split a commmand in two) so I also always include single quotes around my URLs, like: wget 'http://assets.ubuntu.com/v1/590018e7-picto-ubuntukylin.svg'
[08:27] <wolff> I'm using Axel and I think it's the best, but it's a CLI application.You can download form unlimited connections (up to you) and use all of your bandwidth
[08:27] <redtuxedocash> Jordan_U: good idea
[08:27] <redtuxedocash> put it into single command as a file
[08:28] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: ctrl+c will kill wget, just like any other terminal command. Then you can resume by running wget with "-c" (another reason I always include the -c, I can just hit up arrow and re-run the command to continue).
[08:29] <redtuxedocash> i try to download youtube video and i already copied the link
[08:29] <redtuxedocash> but i installing the page instead?
[08:29] <wolff> r u in jakarta
[08:29] <redtuxedocash> i think i already copied the video link?
[08:30] <redtuxedocash> wolff: what do you mean?
[08:30] <wolff> i been here once
[08:30] <wolff> there
[08:30] <wolff> indonesia
[08:30] <redtuxedocash> i am not in jakarta
[08:31] <redtuxedocash> so how can i do it?
[08:31] <wolff> are u in phone
[08:31] <wolff> or pc
[08:31] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: If the URL you pass is the URL for a web page, then wget will download that webpage. If you want to download a youtube video use youtube-dl, which will take a URL for a youtube web page and automatically download the video that page is for.
[08:32] <wolff> there is many ways to download youtube video
[08:32] <redtuxedocash> wolff: neither
[08:32] <wolff> neither?
[08:32] <wolff> how are u connected then?
[08:32] <redtuxedocash> Jordan_U: youtube-dl?
[08:32] <wolff> via?
[08:33] <redtuxedocash> i mean laptop
[08:33] <redtuxedocash> download link you mean?
[08:33] <wolff> well laptop is a pc
[08:33] <redtuxedocash> you can say that man
[08:33] <redtuxedocash> dont worry
[08:34] <wolff> lol
[08:34] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: youtube-dl 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=798NDrLH36U'
[08:35] <redtuxedocash> Jordan_U: so how is the command now ?
[08:36] <redtuxedocash> wget -c youtube-dl?
[08:36] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: No, just youtube-dl. It's an entirely separate program.
[08:36] <bazhang> redtuxedocash: youtube-dl 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=798NDrLH36U'
[08:36] <redtuxedocash> okay
[08:57] <slaffe> Why do I still get authentication attempts from an ip that I have blocked with iptables?
[08:58] <slaffe> Apr 10 10:45:12 scenics auth: pam_unix(dovecot:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=dovecot ruser=admin@scenics.se rhost=91.197.232.10
[08:58] <ikonia> slaffe: how did you block it ?
[08:58] <slaffe> iptables -I fail2ban-spam -s 91.197.232.10 -j DROP
[08:59] <ikonia> slaffe: is that before of after teh rule that opens up your dovecot port
[08:59] <slaffe> after
[08:59] <ikonia> slaffe: so thats why, it's matching against the allow first
[08:59] <slaffe> ah
[08:59] <slaffe> so i'll just do a service dovecot restart then?
[08:59] <ikonia> why would restarting dovecot change anything ?
[09:00] <slaffe> so how do I make it work then
[09:00] <slaffe> I do not think I have any rule in iptables for dovecot
[09:01] <ikonia> slaffe: look at your iptables rules - look at what it acceptas first, you need to make sure you have the block before the allow pattern match
[09:01] <slaffe> I thought you meant if i blocked the ip before starting dovecot, I missread your question
[09:01] <ikonia> slaffe: thats fine, I wasn't sure I'd understood your response
[09:01] <slaffe> ok
[09:01] <slaffe> How do I check this? I am fairly new to linux :)
[09:01] <ikonia> slaffe: are you using ufw ?
[09:02] <ikonia> or interacting with iptables directly
[09:02] <slaffe> both
[09:02] <ikonia> ok - I'd sugges4t you stop that
[09:02] <slaffe> iptables as fail2ban using that
[09:02] <ikonia> pick one and work with one
[09:02] <slaffe> just saw this attempt and tried to ban the ip myself
[09:02] <slaffe> otherwise i never do that
[09:03] <ikonia> work out how you want to manage the firewall and use that one tool
[09:03] <ikonia> it will get confusing it you mix them
[09:03] <slaffe> ya, well fail2ban using the iptables, I really never do that
[09:05] <slaffe> so ufw overrides iptables rules then?
[09:05] <ikonia> it doesn't override it
[09:05] <ikonia> they are the same, ufw is just an interface to iptables
[09:05] <ikonia> however keep it simple - use one tool then you have a single point of truth
[09:06] <ikonia> fail2ban using iptables is fine, what's important is that you can manage your own firewall
[09:06] <slaffe> alright, yes and that i cannot, yet :D
[09:06] <slaffe> well, I can open and close ports and bit more, but that's about it
[09:06] <ikonia> so I would suggest working with ufw to set your system up
[09:07] <slaffe> so I should then remove the accept rule for dovecot and add the deny rule first ?
[09:07] <ikonia> slaffe: I'd look at your rules first
[09:08] <ikonia> work out the ordering of whats actually happening
[09:08] <ikonia> then work out where you want to put your new rule
[09:08] <slaffe> I'll have to read up on this i can tell you, thanks for the help mate
[09:09] <ikonia> not a problem
[09:11] <Merlzbro> In a quest trying to fix some internet connectivity problems, I think I may have wrecked the /etc/network/interfaces
[09:11] <Merlzbro> .. :| The intial problem was that upon booting, the internet would remain for like.. 30 minutes or so, before it would give in. Network's been working well otherwise. I don't suppose there's a way for Ubuntu to like.. Recreate the original /etc/network/interfaces? :P In retrospect, a backup should've been made, obviously.
[09:12] <alkisg> Merlzbro: those are the default contents: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15730037/
[09:14] <Merlzbro> Thanks
[09:14] <Merlzbro> Hmm... SSH'ing to the box through WiFi and it's terribly slow
[09:15] <Mathisen> any good CLI programs that can fetch rss for podcasts and download them automaticly ?
[09:19] <TAFB> is it possible to restrict all non-Canadian IP address from my ubuntu server?
[09:20] <ikonia> you can look at geoip - but I wouldn't trust it these days with ISP's sharing IP's due to shortage
[09:21] <TAFB> hmmm. is there a gui I could run over ssh that would show me the ip address of all the current connections and I could just ban them as I go?
[09:23] <redtuxedocash> i downloaded *.tar.gz file
[09:23] <redtuxedocash> but i dont find any ./configure or make install or something
[09:23] <redtuxedocash> how can i install this file?
[09:23] <redtuxedocash> usually i found one to execute the installation?
[09:23] <Mathisen> redtuxedocash, unpack it and look at content.. most likely a README in there also
[09:23] <redtuxedocash> read me just give me a link
[09:24] <redtuxedocash> nothing more
[09:24] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: What are you actually trying to install? You rarely want to install anything via tar.gz .
[09:24] <redtuxedocash> java
[09:25] <redtuxedocash> plugin for my browser
[09:25] <redtuxedocash> since i have error to install videos
[09:25] <Mathisen> redtuxedocash, where did you download it from ?
[09:25] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: Definitely don't install java via tar.gz.
[09:25] <ratrace> TAFB: that's quickly gonna turn into an endless whack-a-mole
[09:25] <redtuxedocash> needed plugin or something like that when i tried to open video
[09:25] <redtuxedocash> java website
[09:26] <redtuxedocash> any idea?
[09:26] <TAFB> ratrace: figured as much :(
[09:26] <jianming> hello how protect laptop on starbucks wifi?
[09:26] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: Also, I'm skeptical that you've found a website that still uses java, let alone java for playing videos.
[09:26] <TAFB> jianming: use a vpn? :)
[09:26] <Mathisen> redtuxedocash, what browser are you using ?
[09:27] <redtuxedocash> mozilla
[09:27] <lotuspsychje> jianming: be carefull on any public wifi, dont enter sensitive information on them
[09:27] <jianming> i do :-) im asking about actual laptop like firewall
[09:27] <redtuxedocash> i can open youtube vids, but not other vids on other sites
[09:27] <jianming> so users on same network not hack me
[09:27] <Mathisen> redtuxedocash, http://askubuntu.com/questions/354361/how-to-install-the-java-plugin-for-firefox/354406
[09:27] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: That has nothing to do with java.
[09:27] <lotuspsychje> jianming: firewall wont help you, if the network gets sniffed
[09:28] <redtuxedocash> Jordan_U: okay
[09:28] <lotuspsychje> jianming: everything you type could be logged..
[09:28] <redtuxedocash> so?
[09:28] <jianming> mullvad vpn protect me from having my traffic sniffed?
[09:28] <Jordan_U> jianming: Consider any website using http to be compromised. Any site using https is fine.
[09:29] <Mathisen> well there is sslsrip :)
[09:29] <Mathisen> strip*
[09:29] <lotuspsychje> jianming: vpn can help yes, but even then i would not use sensitive data over public wifi
[09:29] <Jordan_U> redtuxedocash: What site are you having teouble viewing videos on?
[09:30] <redtuxedocash> some football sites
[09:30] <redtuxedocash> that video didnt refer to youtube sources
[09:31] <jianming> lotuspsychje: ok i wont log into personal accounts etc on their wifi but what about my protecting my laptop from other users on the same wifi
[09:31] <jianming> firewall, desktop sharing disabled etc
[09:31] <jianming> i using trusty
[09:32] <a7ndrew> Hey, I'm testing out Ubuntu 16.04 Server Beta 2, and I can't seem to do an installation without a network connection. Anyone else seen this?
[09:32] <Jordan_U> jianming: Ubuntu's defaults are secure.
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> jianming: if you running an updated ubuntu system, sure but always sta alert on public :p
[09:32] <jianming> Jordan_U: awesome
[09:32] <Jordan_U> a7ndrew: #ubuntu+1 for 16.04 .
[09:37] <tchatchouang> HELLO!
[09:44] <lorddoskias> hello, my desktop machine has a tplink - tl-wn722N adapter but i constantly get disconnected with the following messages: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15730544/ . It seems it's constantly changing it's regulatory domain. I have set REGDOMAIN in /etc/default/crda to "BG"
[09:48] <craptalk> hello\
[09:48] <jamesl> When inserting an sd card that is not recognized in Windows into a system running an ubuntu live CD in rescue mode, I get the error mmc0 error -110 while initializing sd card. Mmc0 does not show up in /dev, how to get the card working again. I do not care about recovering the data on the card, just the card itself.
[09:49] <lotuspsychje> jamesl: try to reformat it with gparted perhaps?
[09:49] <craptalk> ubuntu experienced internal crash
[09:49] <craptalk> dont know why, but it happened alot
[09:51] <jamesl> Lotuspsychje X doesn't seem to work, I need to use a command line utility
[09:51] <lotuspsychje> !info parted | jamesl
[09:52] <jamesl> But it doesn't show up in dev so parted won't recognize it. It just shows the laptop hdd and the live usb
[09:53] <lotuspsychje> jamesl: dead sd perhaps?
[09:53] <MonkeyDust> craptalk  internal crash?
[09:53] <lotuspsychje> jamesl: try a tail -f /var/log/syslog and plugout/plugin the sd to see errors
[09:53] <jamesl> Possibly
[09:54] <craptalk> MonkeyDust: crash or error, something like that, everytime i reboot mycomputer
[09:54] <craptalk> it happened everytime
[09:54] <jamesl> I told you the error, error -110 while initializing sd card
[09:54] <craptalk> altough i can just click continue to use normally
[09:54] <lotuspsychje> jamesl: only 1 line error?
[09:54] <wodim> jamesl: that sounds like a hw problem
[09:54] <craptalk> but isnt it something?
[09:54] <MonkeyDust> craptalk  that's an apparmor message, you can disable that
[09:55] <craptalk> MonkeyDust: how? but really, this is nothing?
[09:55] <jamesl> One line, but repeated 3 times in quick succession
[09:55] <craptalk> it shows some error? on what purpose?
[09:55] <craptalk> whats the appormor?
[09:56] <lotuspsychje> jamesl: ubuntu version?
[09:57] <jamesl> Ubuntu 12.04
[09:57] <lotuspsychje> jamesl: you could try on newer kernel as a test perhaps
[09:57] <jamesl> Oksy
[09:58] <MonkeyDust> craptalk  i'm looking, moment
[09:59] <lotuspsychje> jamesl: perhaps related? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1158982
[09:59] <MonkeyDust> craptalk  don't find it, it's called AppArmor
[10:02] <me_> Hi.
[10:03] <me_> I have a problem with cgroups. First of all there is no cgred service, but I can live with that. The real issue is that after the reboot the groups that I created and saved in cgconfig.conf are not created. Anyone knows how to fix this?
[10:03] <swenzel> seems like a recent update broke my network drivers... I'm using dualboot and my ethernet works fine on windows but ubuntu it doesn't recognize the device anymore... can anyone point me to a troubleshooting guide?
[10:04] <craptalk> MonkeyDust: alright
[10:05] <MonkeyDust> craptalk  what's the output of    sudo apparmor_status
[10:05] <MonkeyDust> use a pastebin
[10:08] <craptalk> MonkeyDust: http://pastebin.com/JC95PTsP
[10:10] <MonkeyDust> craptalk  now:   sudo service apparmor stop
[10:10] <craptalk> MonkeyDust: what can you tell from it/
[10:10] <craptalk> let me know
[10:11] <MonkeyDust> craptalk  any one of these appas can popup an error
[10:11] <MonkeyDust> apps*
[10:11] <craptalk> you want me to restart all?
[10:12] <MonkeyDust> craptalk  no, disable the popups
[10:12] <craptalk> doesnt it include all running programs on the background and foreground?
[10:12] <MonkeyDust> not sure
[10:12] <craptalk> okay i just simply stop?
[10:12] <MonkeyDust> yes
[10:13] <craptalk> is it like UAC on windows?
[10:24] <karab44> hello
[10:24] <karab44> what OGL version do I have with Ubuntu 15.10 on NVIDIA GPU ?
[10:25] <appl3s> Hi, on my host, the /etc/apt/sources.list is replaced with the default one (buy cloud init) whenever I restore a snapshot. Is there any way to disable ubuntu's use of /etc/apt/sources.list and tell it to look for sources in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*?
[10:26] <appl3s> *(by  cloud init)
[10:54] <Gnjurac> how to know if i have JDK installed?
[10:54] <Gnjurac> and where it is located
[10:54] <baizon> Gnjurac: run javac -version
[10:54] <baizon> Gnjurac: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64
[10:55] <Gnjurac> ok ty
[10:59] <ChunkzZ> why does powertop say my screen brightness is using 100% and it's on 0%?
[11:04] <pwca> hi, in the new GNOME there's this annoying grey slider to the bottom left of my screen. what is this slider called?
[11:06] <pwca> apparently: "legacy tray"
[11:07] <ChunkzZ> anyone?
[11:15] <craptalk> how to start apache server + mysql in ubuntu?
[11:15] <craptalk> i cant run sudo service mysql start
[11:15] <craptalk> i need to go to phpmyadmin
[11:16] <bekks> o one needs that :)
[11:16] <bekks> *no
[11:16] <bekks> craptalk: you need to install apache, mysql and phpmyadmin, and start apache and mysql.
[11:18] <wodim> in fact they start automatically when installed, don't they?
[11:18] <bekks> wodim: at least thats the default configuration, yes.
[11:23] <Pinchiukas> (KDE) Am I the only person to have problems with an external monitor? Every reboot I have to reconfigure the resolution and rearrange the screens. Also, the notification popups and menus constantly show up on the wrong screen.
[11:24] <craptalk> bekks: sudo apt-get install mysql?
[11:24] <MisterSanderson> Hello!
[11:25] <MonkeyDust> craptalk  use tasksel (task select)
[11:25] <bekks> craptalk: maybe you should state your actual issue ("what do I actually want?") first, instead one of your proposed steps ("I'll install mysql") to solve it?
[11:31] <MisterSanderson> Hm, this is not exactly limited to 16.04, so I'll post it here too:
[11:31] <MisterSanderson> I need to install Ubuntu in my netbook soon, but I don't know if I can wait until the release of the 16.04 version. What to do?
[11:31] <bekks> MisterSanderson: if you cant wait, use 14.04, if you can wai, use 16.04.
[11:32] <bekks> *wait
[11:32] <haasn> If I run Firefox in a stock Ubuntu 15.10 installation and click on a “Browse...” button, will I see thumbnails for images in whatever file chooser dialog shows up?
[11:33] <bekks> haasn: No, not necessarily.
[11:33] <slaffe> What is the best application to run on ub server 14.04 if you want to stream movies from your server to your smartphone over the internet?
[11:33] <bekks> slaffe: the one you like most, since "best" is a personal opinion only.
[11:39] <MisterSanderson> There will be problems to upgrade 14.04 to 16.04 later?
[11:40] <bekks> No.
[11:40] <MonkeyDust> MisterSanderson  that would make ubuntu a poor distro, wouldnt it
[11:40] <MisterSanderson> Yes.
[11:41] <MisterSanderson> But I already had problems with normal updates (not version upgrade) in the past.
[11:41] <MonkeyDust> MisterSanderson  what brings you here
[11:43] <baizon> MisterSanderson: install 16.04. I'm using it, it's rocket stable
[11:44] <MonkeyDust> i've been using it for some weeks, no complaints so far
[11:44] <bekks> baizon: It isnt even released yet, so it cannot be stable :)
[11:44] <bekks> baizon: currently, it is in betta state, isnt it?
[11:45] <baizon> bekks: yes it is for the next 1 week and 4 days
[11:45] <MisterSanderson> I prefer not using unreleased versions. They always have problems.
[11:45] <bekks> MisterSanderson: So use 14.04, and update to 16.04 in a few montsh.
[11:45] <bekks> *months
[11:45] <ldsh> Hi, When I do a wifi hotspot with my laptop, it is detected by my smartphone. When I do from my desktop, it is detected by my laptop, but not by my smartphone. Both computers are with latest Ubuntu gnome and the smartphone android 4.4. Would it be a problem like the smartphone only having a new norm and the desktop only an old norm (whereas the laptop would have both norms)?
[11:46] <bekks> ldsh: that may be the cause, you need to investigate it.
[11:47] <ldsh> bekks, I don't even see the hotspot in the list of wifi networks from the smartphone side.
[11:47] <MisterSanderson> On #ubuntu+1, someone said to me to use 15.10. Should I use 14.04 or 15.10?
[11:47] <MonkeyDust> MisterSanderson  14.04 if you want long support, 15.10 if you want the latest
[11:48] <bekks> ldsh: So you need to investigate you assumption.
[11:48] <MisterSanderson> I want to update to 16.04 as soon as it is released. So 15.10 appears to be better, don't it? Otherwise, I would need to download many more things until getting the latest version.
[11:56] <ldsh> bekks, in lshw of the desktop I have "wireless=IEEE 802.11bgn", witch is not too bad in term of compatibility I think. The latptop has "wireless=IEEE 802.11abgn", so a bit wider compatibility. I have to search a bit more for the smartphone
[11:58] <ldsh> bekks, one source says 802.11 b/g/n for the smartphone, which should be perfectly compatible with the desktop's chip...
[12:03] <bekks> ldsh: technically, they are compatible. which doesnt mean you are using compatible encryptions. Try using WPA2 PSK.
[12:07] <everson> Hi all. I've installed fail2ban because we're getting repeated root login attempts for the last few hours from the same IP. When does fail2ban actually kick in? Because we're still getting attempts from the same IP. Thanks
[12:08] <zerocool_> hi
[12:09] <baizon> everson: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fail2ban
[12:11] <ldsh> bekks, the encryption is not a parameter for the basic hotspot functionality, they are both the weak WEP (both = laptop and desktop when the hotspot is created).
[12:11] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:12] <everson> baizon, thanks
[12:19] <swenzel> I've just bought a banana-pi and I'm using it with ubuntu-mate, in order to try something out I disabled networking but now I cannot enable it again. Klicking on the networking icon only shows me a greyed out label saying 'networking disabled'
[12:21] <sirsharpest> Just wanted to ask a question about maintaining packages on the Ubuntu official repos: How does one go about getting a .deb file added to the repository or else update an out of date piece of software (e.g. I've packaged a more up-to-date version of eclipse and I want others to be able to use it)
[12:22] <baizon> sirsharpest: create a ppa then
[12:22] <k1l> !motu | sirsharpest
[12:23] <k1l> sirsharpest: you could talk to the maintainer of that pacakge or ask in #ubuntu-packaging
[12:23] <swenzel> nevermind, got it
[12:23] <sirsharpest> k1l thanks! That should be a good direction to look in :)
[12:24] <baizon> sirsharpest: also there is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-make
[12:30] <swengin> Hi I'm trying to use joe editor to edit a large sql dump but I can't figure out how to search within the file
[12:30] <swengin> I just hit the command in terminal joe filename.sql
[12:30] <nufc100> Hi, I installed the Ubuntu OTA 10 update on an Aquaris E5.  It seems to have disabled the on-screen keyboard, e.g. I can't type a reply to a text message.  Has anyone had similar problems or know anything about this?
[12:31] <swengin> and then ^k^ftext seems to just write the text to the file but not a command
[12:31] <swengin> any idea?
[12:32] <k1l_> nufc100: best is to ask in #ubuntu-touch for smartphone related things
[12:33] <nufc100> Okay, thank you.
[12:38] <sine0> I have a problem on ubuntu where the system fails to resolve periodically. its not my router because all other devices and dual boot OS work fine. it happens in all browser and even in apt-get when its trying to resolve sources. if i stop the process and start again its fine. what can i check DNS wise
[12:38] <sine0> its my understanding that a dns request is sent to the dns server that is stated in my router port 53
[12:39] <sine0> but what would happen locally that would cause this issue, like a dns cache or something ?
[12:40] <Simple_user> hello
[12:40] <tengu3> hi
[12:41] <Simple_user> can you help me?
[12:41] <aruns> Simple_user: What with?
[12:41] <tengu3> Ask a question, if i don't know to answer it someone else would might know...
[12:41] <MonkeyDust> Simple_user  start with a question
[12:42] <Simple_user> I am new with Ubuntu-Mate.Where i find 'Settings'?
[12:42] <Simple_user> *I
[12:43] <markcl> Control Center
[12:43] <markcl> @Simple_user
[12:43] <markcl> It’s on the third menu I think
[12:43] <Simple_user> thanks :)
[12:44] <Pinchiukas> Anybody?
[12:46] <tengu3> Pinchiukas?
[12:46] <Pinchiukas> In KDE I'm having problems with an external monitor. Every reboot I have to reconfigure the resolution and rearrange the screens. Also, the notification popups and menus constantly show up on the wrong screen.
[12:48] <tengu3> KDE?
[12:48] <tengu3> this is #ubuntu
[12:48] <Pinchiukas> Ubuntu does have KDE.
[12:48] <k1l_> tengu3: kubuntu questions are fine here, too
[12:49] <swenzel> looking at http://askubuntu.com/a/530541/307124 is it a good idea to store the wifi password there? Is there another way?
[12:49] <k1l_> Pinchiukas: the guys in #kubuntu might now some kde specifics better.
[12:49] <tengu3> since no one is answering
[12:49] <tengu3> try at #kubuntu
[12:49] <Pinchiukas> k1l_: I've asked there as well but there are a lot fewer people there.
[12:49] <tengu3> good luck pinchiukas
[12:49] <tengu3> anything on google?
[12:50] <Pinchiukas> Probably random things people encounter. :)
[12:58] <Pinchiukas> Almost a year and no fix: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=346961 :(
[12:58] <Simple_user> hello
[12:58] <Simple_user> How I can install flash player on ubuntu ,ate?
[12:58] <Simple_user> *mate
[12:59] <cfhowlett> Pinchiukas, take it up with the kde team
[12:59] <cfhowlett> !flash
[13:00] <Pinchiukas> Doesn't look like anyone cares. :(
[13:03] <ratrace> Pinchiukas: which graphics card you have?
[13:03] <MonkeyDust> or that there's no solution yet
[13:03] <MonkeyDust> Pinchiukas  ^^^
[13:05] <wildc4rd> is everything OK with Ubuntu updates, I have a 15 day uptime at the moment, longest for ages!
[13:06] <ratrace> heh
[13:08] <k1l_> wildc4rd: why should there something not ok with the updates. you need to run the updates due to them fixing security issues.
[13:08] <Mark_____> Are anyone here familiar with procmail? Cause I'm new to it, and was wondering if anyone knew a guide or something to set it up properly.
[13:08] <cfhowlett> complaining about long uptime?  don't seem right ...
[13:09] <wildc4rd> Oh I don't begrudge it at all, security is a good thing. I was restarting the ubuntu box more than Windows 10 for a few weeks though, lol
[13:10] <ratrace> wildc4rd: which 'buntu?
[13:10] <wildc4rd> 15.10
[13:11] <ratrace> wildc4rd: well, I upgraded my 15.10 box to 16.04 few days ago, but on the day of upgrade, I had to update it. So there might be something wrong with your setup.
[13:12] <wildc4rd> I've had updates, just no required restarts
[13:12] <wildc4rd> can't complain, better than 99.5% uptime over 12 months at the moment
[13:13] <ratrace> wildc4rd: had kernel upgrade to 4.2.0-30-generic on 2016-04-02
[13:14] <ratrace> wildc4rd: wait, wrong, that was remove....
[13:14] <ratrace> wildc4rd: oh here, installed 4.2.0-35 on 2016-04-05
[13:16] <wildc4rd> ratrace, I'll assume that is particular to 16.04 at the moment, I'll have a gander later see if there are any package updates that matter to me, otherwise I'll wait for it to be pushed out
[13:17] <ratrace> wildc4rd: dunno, but that was the last update I did to 15.10, I upgraded to 16.04 that day.
[13:17] <ijul> why i can't login in kali linux?
[13:18] <Pinchiukas> ratrace: I have an Intel, why?
[13:18] <ratrace> Pinchiukas: because there are workarounds for nvidia in that bug report
[13:21] <Pinchiukas> Not all of them (still) work apparently.
[13:21] <Pinchiukas> And they're ugly to say the least.
[13:27] <hack65> Hello!
[13:33] <ChunkzZ> hello.
[13:35] <Mark_____> Are anyone here familiar with procmail? Cause I'm new to it, and was wondering if anyone knew a guide or something to set it up properly.
[13:36] <ChunkzZ> anyone here using amd6290 gfx on ubuntu/linux?
[13:36] <ratrace> Mark_____: you mean like virtual transport target for, say, Postfix?
[13:37] <Mark_____> ratrace: I mean for receiving  incoming email. Yea, I think it uses postfix.
[13:38] <ratrace> Mark_____: so did you try googling for "Postfix Procmail Ubuntu" keywords? don't even need "ubuntu" it's all pretty much the same regardless of distro
[13:39] <Mark_____> ratrace: Yes, but haven't been able to find a method to bind it to the incoming tranport for emails. So it's not getting triggered when a mail is being received. After all the email is just bouncing around.
[13:40] <ratrace> Mark_____: I'm pretty sure any tutorial on using Procmail with, say, Postfix, will explain how to connect them. Eg. through virtual_transport config of Postfix.
[13:40] <kflynn> Hello?
[13:41] <Mark_____> ratrace: I will try take a look for that. Thanks.
[13:42] <kflynn> Would anybody here be willing to assist me with an issue I'm having concerning compiling C++ programs?
[13:42] <ratrace> Mark_____: there's also mailbox_command   that's not just for virtuals like virtual_transport. That's also a Postfix config, used pretty much the same.
[13:43] <Mark_____> ratrace: I will google around and see if I can figure it out. Thanks again :)
[13:43] <bazhang> kflynn, try the ##c++ channel
[13:43] <kflynn> Thanks
[13:43] <hack65> .
[13:43] <ratrace> Mark_____: it's really not complicated. Connecting them is easy, and then the majority of work is configuring procmail to do stuff you want it do. That's assuming you need conditional delivery at all.
[13:43] <hack65> .
[13:44] <hack65> .
[13:51] <sine0> I can extracted a tar.gz and I own the folder it created sine:sine yet I cant cd into it, it says permission denied
[13:51] <sine0> wtf
[13:51] <sine0> i can = i have
[13:51] <Ben64> sine0: what is the output of "ls -ld 'the folder it created'"
[13:52] <sine0> sine@beastubuntu:~$ ls -ld dirb222
[13:52] <sine0> drw-rw-r-- 10 sine sine 4096 Nov 19  2014 dirb222
[13:52] <sine0> sine@beastubuntu:~$ cd dirb222/
[13:52] <sine0> bash: cd: dirb222/: Permission denied
[13:52] <Ben64> there you go, you need to add execute permissions to it
[13:53] <sine0> execute to go into a folder ?
[13:53] <Ben64> yep
[13:53] <sine0> well i never.
[13:53] <Ben64> it always
[13:53] <sine0> i have never had to do that
[13:53] <Ben64> i assure you, it's been like that forever
[13:54] <sine0> well i mean ive never had to do it manually like that
[13:54] <sine0> not that I have been a linux user for years
[13:54] <Ben64> then you haven't had a folder without execute
[13:55] <habyte> i get an error everytime i try to install ubuntu alongside windows
[13:55] <sine0> Ben64: do you think I missed out a flag when tar -zxvf
[13:56] <habyte> it doesn't say anymore than '?????'
[13:56] <sine0> so that it lost all x
[13:57] <ratrace> sine0: not with those flags. perhaps the folder already was missing +x when you packed it?
[13:57] <sine0> ok how do i make a folder and all the files inside it recursivly +x
[13:58] <sine0> im trying to build it and the configure does not have it and the folders do not
[13:58] <Ben64> sine0: if you want the folders and all the files inside all +x...
[13:58] <ratrace> sine0: I don't think you want all files +x, but maybe all dirs +x
[13:59] <Ben64> sine0: chmod -R a+x folder
[14:00] <tme5> ^ though by default dirs are executable
[14:00] <Ben64> well they should be
[14:01] <mattw> why would a new screen session terminate immediately when i try to create one?
[14:01] <Ben64> mattw: not enough information to guess
[14:02] <tme5> if you want to do dirs only, you'd do find -type d | xargs chmod +x
[14:02] <mattw> i am using a non-root user that's in sudoers. i type "screen -S test" and it immediately says [screen is terminating]
[14:06] <tme5> mattw, maybe the shell inside screen is terminating?
[14:07] <tme5> try screen /bin/bash
[14:07] <EriC^> mattw: maybe it's not taking the -S properly
[14:08] <mattw> screen /bin/bash does the same thing
[14:08] <mattw> hmm
[14:08] <tme5> do you have a .screenrc?
[14:09] <tme5> mattw, try with some non-shell program, eg screen /usr/bin/top
[14:10] <sine0> thanks Ben64
[14:10] <sweb> how can i reinstall(also repartitioning) ubuntu using just ssh? using deboostrap dost allow modify partitions. any method live pxe or any distro for live with ssh access ?
[14:11] <ratrace> sweb: any ubuntu or debian based livecd/rescue environment, reasonably recent?
[14:11] <drmagoo> can anyone here explain how the configfiles for systemd-cryptsetup reads/works (in /run/systemd/generator/)?
[14:12] <mattw> screen /usr/bin/top worked
[14:12] <mattw> oh wait
[14:12] <mattw> nevermind. it did not
[14:12] <sweb> ratrace: i want to install ubuntu server dosnt matter with live cd loaded. important issue i just have ssh to server no vnc no kvm or etc
[14:12] <loganlee> hello im using ubuntu 15.10. i try to change my login screen background to something else using ubuntu tweak but it stays the same as the image i set for desktop
[14:12] <loganlee> it won't change
[14:12] <loganlee> help
[14:12] <patrick_> I've got ubuntumate installed on pi2 and under app > image  I see "ImageMagick (display Q16)" listed twice.. once with what appears to be a "successfully installed" icon, and the other not so much.. any ideas how to clean this up and only have one listing?
[14:13] <ratrace> sweb: right, but you first need to boot some kind of debian/ubuntu based rescue system on that server. you ssh into it, partition the hdd, mount and run debootstrap.
[14:14] <tme5> mattw, that's odd, so it must be an issue with screen itself.
[14:14] <MonkeyDust> patrick_  pi2 is not supported here, try #ubuntu-arm or #raspberrypi
[14:14] <mattw> ok thanks tme5
[14:14] <tme5> mattw, try screen -ls or screen -ln
[14:14] <sweb> ratrace: dost matter ... is there any live cd that give me automaticly ssh access after reboot current OS ...
[14:14] <M1K4> patrick_: or ubuntu-mate
[14:15] <mattw> screen -ls says No sockets found. and screen -ln terminates immediately too
[14:15] <patrick_> thanks.
[14:15] <sweb> ratrace: doesn't matter which live cd ... i just need to get ssh access to my server
[14:15] <ratrace> sweb: I don't know if any have out of the box ssh set up with hardcoded password. But, wait. is this a server with a hosting company?
[14:17] <deathslocus> Are there any backports of i915 with Skylake support for kernel 3.16.0-30 I am married to that kernel version for the next month
[14:17] <ratrace> sweb: also, if you can provide any ISO you wish, why not prepare on with your ssh pubkey already configured...
[14:17] <sweb> ratrace: the main problem is many data center give us s*** version of ubuntu with stupid package list (like plesk) and partitioning ... kvm for each data center is not dedicate cause time and some times money ... i need to solution to re install and re partition my entire server just using ssh ...
[14:18] <tme5> mattw, "When a program terminates, screen (per default) kills the  window  that  contained it. " from screen manpage
[14:18] <ratrace> sweb: I understand. but does that hosting company have a RESCUE boot environment? Pretty much every hosting company does and if it doesn't LEAVE. :)
[14:18] <tme5> try to disable this, and see what it happening in the window. or enable/check any logs
[14:18] <tme5> that's all the ideas i have
[14:18] <sweb> ratrace: that's the main problem ... i cant decide to leave cause of money and contract of sale department ... :(
[14:19] <ratrace> sweb: okay, so let's slow down a bit. Can you a) reboot to a hosting-company provided rescue OS that has ssh already installed and is a recent ubuntu/debian based distroy?
[14:19] <aruns> Hi, for an unformatted 100GB partition on Win 7, do I need to format it as Ext4 for an Ubuntu 15.10 install off a live CD, or can I set the installer to select the unformatted partition and write to it?
[14:19] <ratrace> sweb: or b) upload your own ISO to reboot into?
[14:21] <sweb> ratrace: i dont have any rescure disk on hosting company .... i have root access to current server ... i can upload my own iso to server and can install any packages like `grub-imageboot`
[14:21] <ratrace> sweb: cool, so you can then prepare your own ubuntu installation ISO configured already with an ssh pubkey of yours, and reboot into that?
[14:22] <ratrace> sweb: and surely there has to be a rescue OS you can boot into. How else are you or anyone for that matter, expected to fix issues when they occur and require external OS to mount your root partition on to?
[14:25] <sweb> ratrace: yeah thats the way i guess ... build my own ubuntu iso ... right ? but i need detail ... create iso from my desire iso contain the my ssh key and network configuration ?
[14:26] <sweb> ratrace: the i can use grub-imageboot to load my owniso ... right ?
[14:26] <aruns> If I have an unformatted partition on Win 7 and wish to dual boot Ubuntu.
[14:26] <ratrace> sweb: I don't know how to load your own ISO, that's something specific to your hosting company methinks
[14:26] <aruns> Is it better to load Ubuntu as a demo and use GParted?
[14:28] <rud0lf> is it ok to install perl modules with cpanm on ubuntu?
[14:28] <rud0lf> i ask because few modules i've installed so far was .deb packages
[14:28] <tme5> what do you mean by ok?
[14:30] <xstreamx> May I ask something about desktop customization?
[14:30] <aruns> Sure.
[14:30] <aruns> I run Ubuntu 14.04, not sure if able to help, but fire away.
[14:30] <rud0lf> i mean, is cpanm compatible with ubuntu?
[14:30] <aruns> xstreamx: What is your question?
[14:31] <tme5> rud0lf, if it (cpanm) has a package, i imagine it works well enough :P
[14:31] <rud0lf> thanks
[14:31] <xstreamx> I have installed neofetch and I have problem with it
[14:31] <aruns> xstreamx: From GitHub?
[14:32] <tme5> rud0lf, cpan has no automated uninstalling though
[14:32] <aruns> xstreamx: And what is the 'problem'?
[14:32] <rud0lf> hmm hmm hmm
[14:32] <xstreamx> aruns: yes. and can't display wallpaper on it
[14:33] <tme5> at least the normal "cpan" program didn't. others might
[14:33] <bazhang> !info neofetch
[14:33] <bazhang> whats neofetch xstreamx
[14:33] <xstreamx> bazhang: neofetch 1.6
[14:34] <bazhang> xstreamx, thats not in the ubuntu repos
[14:34] <aruns> bazhang: It's a script compatible with Linux that displays system information.
[14:34] <bazhang> xstreamx, where did you get it
[14:34] <tme5> bazhang, github
[14:34] <bazhang> aruns, like conky?
[14:34] <aruns> bazhang: I believe so, yes.
[14:34] <xstreamx> bazhang: i get from this website https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch
[14:35] <bazhang> xstreamx, so contact them
[14:35] <aruns> xstreamx: Do you have imagemagick in the package for Neofetch?
[14:35] <aruns> xstreamx: This link may help: https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch/issues/40
[14:35] <xstreamx> aruns: yes, i have installed it.
[14:36] <xstreamx> aruns: ok, i will check that link now.
[14:36] <aruns> xstreamx: Oh OK, I am not familiar with the program, so it's probably best to contact them on GitHub.
[14:37] <aruns> Bazhang, I have a question of my own.
[14:37] <aruns> Looking to dual boot Win7 with Ubuntu 15.10, I have an unformatted 100GB partition.
[14:37] <tme5> xstreamx, Wallpaper: feh, nitrogen or gsettings
[14:37] <aruns> Is it best to boot a live Ubuntu demo and use GParted to format?
[14:37] <tme5> do you have any of these?
[14:38] <aruns> ???
[14:38] <xstreamx> tme5: i have feh
[14:39] <aruns> ???
[14:39] <tme5> aruns, "best?"
[14:40] <nauticalnexus> aruns: that's what I did
[14:40] <xstreamx> my neofetch displayed like in this link http://postimg.org/image/dog1jkrin/f31ac2cc/
[14:40] <aruns> nauticalnexus: Ah OK, thanks.

[15:15] <aruns> Hi, tried to install Ubuntu 15.10 on a Dell Latitude E5400 running Win 7 Professional 32-bit.
[15:15] <Guest63244> i have steam installed in my system... but every game terminated with openGL error. How can i install openGL in my system?
[15:15] <aruns> As I tried to manually select the partition on which to install Ubuntu 15.10, following error message came up: "ubi-partman failed with exit code 141. Further information may be found in /var/log/syslog. Do you want to try running this step again before continuing? If you do not, your installation may fail entirely or may be broken. "
[15:16] <aruns> I presume partman means partition manager. Can anyone explain a workaround to this problem for me?
[15:16] <Angel65> i have steam installed in my system... but every game terminated with openGL error. How can i install openGL in my system?
[15:18] <aruns> Angel, can you not install openGL from command line?

[15:20] <doxinho> I'm trying to setup openssh with a ChrootDirectory for group "sftpusers"
[15:20] <aruns> I mean no offence, but can more people contribute on here? Don't get me wrong, some really helpful people have helped me out in my hour of need, but a lot of you just seem to be lurking and not contributing.
[15:20] <doxinho> it works fine without the Chrootdirectory, but as soon as I put it on I get connection refused
[15:21] <doxinho> permissions seem to be correct (followed guides), so not sure what I am missing
[15:21] <aruns> Doxinho, are you running Ubuntu Server?
[15:21] <aruns> Or Ubuntu Desktop?
[15:24] <aruns> doxinho: Hello?
[15:25] <K350> Is there any Live CD where I can partion/format my disc?
[15:25] <EriC^> K350: all ubuntu live iso's have gparted
[15:25] <syth> Yeah
[15:26] <K350> EriC^: gparted..ah.thanks a lot :-)
[15:26] <aruns> K350: I think GParted should do it for you.
[15:26] <aruns> Yeah, what EriC^ said.
[15:26] <aruns> EriC^
[15:26] <aruns> Another problem I have :P
[15:26] <craptalk> does linux really lighter percormance than windows?
[15:27] <syth> Yes
[15:27] <aruns> Well, from what I understand, it has superior driver support.
[15:27] <craptalk> how is that?
[15:27] <nauticalnexus> do you mean, it uses less performance or?
[15:27] <bazhang> craptalk, #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[15:27] <craptalk> driver i agree
[15:27] <aruns> It doesn't have the bloatware found in Windows drivers.
[15:27] <K350> Gparted is wha tI looke for..thanks a lot guys ! :-)
[15:27] <craptalk> but as whole
[15:27] <bazhang> this is ubuntu support only craptalk
[15:27] <aruns> It also uses something called swap space.
[15:27] <nrosvall> actually I don't think. i use linux only, but it think windows performs better in many situations
[15:27] <syth> Light + useful =Linux
[15:28] <bazhang> please take it to the chat channel craptalk
[15:29] <aruns> I have a problem, tried to install Ubuntu 15.10 onto an unformatted 100GB partition on my Dell Latitude E5400 running Win7 Professional 32-bit, clicked the unformatted partition and tried to set it to mount on / (root) and so on.
[15:29] <aruns> But got following error message: I mean no offence, but can more people contribute on here? Don't get me wrong, some really helpful people have helped me out in my hour of need, but a lot of you just seem to be lurking and not contributing.

[15:30] <aruns> nauticalnexus: Yes, got an error message about ubpartman.
[15:30] <aruns> *ubi partman
[15:30] <nauticalnexus> aruns: well I don't know, I've not had such an issue
[15:31] <aruns> nauticalnexus: Is it possible to boot into the demo and use GParted to format the partition as Ext4?
[15:31] <nauticalnexus> aruns: yeah. Of course.
[15:31] <doxinho> sorry, Aruns
[15:31] <doxinho> I am running Ubuntu Server

[15:36] <nauticalnexus> I miss my ondemand :(
[15:36] <baizon> nauticalnexus: http://www.webupd8.org/2014/04/prevent-your-laptop-from-overheating.html
[15:36] <ChunkzZ> anyone explain what this does "acpi_osi=" ?
[15:36] <craptalk> how can i start phpmyadmin service?

[15:37] <ChunkzZ> that doesn't help in the slightest...
[15:37] <nauticalnexus> baizon: I've never had overheating issues with the acpi driver. I miss ondemand from 14.04's lowlatency kernel
[15:38] <baizon> nauticalnexus: this solution also applies to you
[15:38] <craptalk> how can i start phpmyadmin service on ubuntu?
[15:38] <nauticalnexus> baizon: it's just how to enable it unless I'm missing something
[15:38] <ChunkzZ> baizon, it's not a solution. the replies don't know what they're on about!

[15:39] <stacy-> how can i change the user password insisde myphhpadmin for opencart
[15:46] <MonkeyDust> haven't followed... to deal with overheating, install thermald, and indicatur-cpufreq
[15:48] <aruns> k1l_: Hi, have used a partition utility to format unformatted partition as ext4, will see if that resolves issue.
[15:48] <doxinho> is there no way to allow a user to write to their ChrootDirectory?
[15:48] <baizon> MonkeyDust: no, he means just a intel feature, not overheating
[15:49] <baizon> doxinho: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-to-use-chmod-and-chown-command/
[15:50] <Guest20161> Whats up
[15:51] <doxinho> yeah baizon... trouble is root needs to own the chrootdirectory, so the user can't write into it
[15:51] <doxinho> only into subdirectories
[15:51] <baizon> doxinho: create a group then ?
[15:52] <doxinho> and add root to the group?
[15:52] <baizon> doxinho: yep
[15:52] <Guest27080> Hi there, did who know how to install kodi on ubuntu mate?
[15:54] <davido> @Guest27080 Have you looked at this? https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=124572
[15:54] <doxinho> problem is a bit more convoluted whereby only root can write to the chrootdirectory for sftp
[15:54] <doxinho> but the user can read
[15:54] <syth> Yes
[15:54] <doxinho> workaround is to just create a subdirectory for the user
[15:54] <lotsoftuna> Hi... anyone using Skype ever get "problem with legacy client"
[15:55] <Guest27080> I use apt-get install got a error like a rely error
[15:55] <lotsoftuna> This is critical for mygrandmother
[15:55] <doxinho> ~critical~
[15:55] <lotsoftuna> There's no new update within synaptic
[15:55] <syth> Seriously?
[15:55] <doxinho> red alert, ~critical for grandma~
[15:55] <dave0x6d> Does anyone know which email address I should use at Canonical to request source code?
[15:55] <MonkeyDust> lotsoftuna  skype is owned by msft
[15:55] <lotsoftuna> I'm well aware
[15:55] <dave0x6d> I can't locate it for a program.
[15:55] <lotsoftuna> and I'm ware they're jerking linux users around
[15:56] <Guest27080> Thanks davido, I will try it.
[15:56] <davido> Is skype even relevant anymore? What's wrong with Hangouts?
[15:56] <doxinho> Google is evil
[15:56] <craptalk> how to enable phpmyadmin service?
[15:56] <syth> Hangouts is my first choice though
[15:56] <craptalk> i already installed apache2
[15:57] <lotsoftuna> Davido, much like for anything else, good luck getting people to switch to something else to use
[15:57] <lotsoftuna> Not gonna convince all of grandmas friends to switch just because she uses linux
[15:57] <baizon> craptalk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/phpMyAdmin
[15:57] <davido> you got grandma onto Ubuntu. ;)
[15:57] <Rigidknife> Has anyone used wine to setup swgemu before?
[15:57] <davido> oh, i see.
[15:57] <aruns> Has Ubuntu 15.10 been probably tested for bugs?
[15:57] <syth> Granny's got linux
[15:57] <nauticalnexus> doxinho: and explain, how is Google evil? Or more evil than Microsoft
[15:57] <aruns> Encountering a lot of issues trying to install it.
[15:58] <aruns> As a dual boot with Win 7.
[15:58] <doxinho> That's the joke :]
[15:58] <syth> Joke?
[15:58] <nauticalnexus> aruns: I'm running 15.10 alongside OS X 10.11 with no issues. I don't know why you're having any.
[15:58] <davido> lotsoftuna: Install a VM for her running a Windows dist downloaded from modern.ie, and install a new version of skype within.  Probably will have to expose the USB cam to the VM too.
[15:58] <nauticalnexus> I also installed 14.04 alongside Windows 10 with no issues
[15:58] <lotsoftuna> little bit too complicated
[15:59] <syth> Same nauticalnexus
[15:59] <lotsoftuna> good luck trying to explain that to her
[15:59] <aruns> nauticalnexus: 32 bit or 64 bit Ubuntu 15.10?
[15:59] <nauticalnexus> aruns: 64
[15:59] <lotsoftuna> "Launch the VM, login, start Skype, THEN you can call"
[15:59] <syth> 64 both
[15:59] <aruns> Ah.
[15:59] <syth> Or 32 both
[15:59] <nauticalnexus> aruns: it'd be pretty dumb to run a 32-bit OS on an i7 ;P
[15:59] <MonkeyDust> aruns  what brings you here
[15:59] <davido> Leave VM running on a virtual workspace.  ctrl-alt-arrow to it.
[15:59] <k1l_> aruns: what is your exact issue?
[16:00] <aruns> nauticalnexus: I was informed that my Dell Latitude E5400 could run a 64 bit OS, currently running 32 bit Win 7 Professional, so have an Ubuntu 15.10 live CD
[16:00] <rlens> hi there
[16:00] <k1l_> aruns: installing ubuntu onto a unpartiioned disk is really easy and works. so what is the exact issue here?
[16:00] <nauticalnexus> aruns: is the live CD 32 or 64
[16:00] <aruns> nauticalnexus: 64 bit.
[16:00] <eelstrebor> wine sure has come a long way - it was a pita to use about 10 years ago - just installed it on my son's pc and ran a windows app right out of the box
[16:00] <lotsoftuna> davido... it's got 1GB of DDR2 RAM
[16:00] <aruns> k1l_: ub-partman kept on crashing
[16:00] <davido> ah, that's a problem. :)
[16:00] <lotsoftuna> innb4 update
[16:01] <lotsoftuna> the dude who "services" her system is a total dick
[16:01] <k1l_> there is no need to install a 32bit Os if your hardware is 64bit, like all modern pcs are.
[16:01] <lotsoftuna> "oh, yeah, Linux is sooo complicated, you wouldn't get it"
[16:01] <lotsoftuna> I use Arch you fucking prick
[16:01] <k1l_> aruns: where and why exactly? do you mean "wubi"?
[16:01] <lotsoftuna> Not that that's that complicated
[16:01] <nauticalnexus> lotsoftuna: language
[16:01] <bazhang> lotsoftuna, cut it out
[16:01] <k1l_> lotsoftuna: stick to proper language and ubuntu in here. thanks
[16:01] <syth> Wubi on windows
[16:01] <MonkeyDust> lotsoftuna  no profanities here
[16:02] <k1l_> syth: dont use wubi. its dead and will break your ubuntu and windows install
[16:02] <lotsoftuna> oop
[16:02] <aruns> k1l_: This is error message I received: "ubi-partman failed with exit code 141. Further information may be found in /var/log/syslog. Do you want to try running this step again before continuing? If you do not, your installation may fail entirely or may be broken. "
[16:02] <lotsoftuna> Anyway, I gotta go
[16:02] <bazhang> syth, stick to the topic here
[16:02] <MonkeyDust> !find ubi-partman
[16:02] <nauticalnexus> syth: ahhh I remember that I used it to dual boot W8 and Ubuntu 12.04 back in the day
[16:02] <aruns> And it hung on the error message window.
[16:02] <aruns> So I used MyPartition to format 100GB partition as EXT4.
[16:02] <syth> I already broke both win and linux because of wubi
[16:02] <nauticalnexus> lol
[16:03] <syth> Lol
[16:03] <k1l_> aruns: open a terminal and run "cat /var/log/syslog | nc termbin.com 9999"
[16:03] <Richard_Zhao> -_-!!
[16:03] <nauticalnexus> syth: from what I remember Wubi only works on old BIOS, not UEFI
[16:03] <bazhang> !ot | syth nauticalnexus
[16:03] <MonkeyDust> nauticalnexus  'works'
[16:03] <syth> Me?
[16:03] <nauticalnexus> MonkeyDust: worked for me..
[16:03] <bazhang> syth yes
[16:03] <syth> :)
[16:03] <bazhang> stop the chit chat here syth
[16:04] <aruns> k1l_: Ok, going to try installing on the EXT4 partition first, if that doesn't work I'll run the Ubuntu demo and run the command in terminal that you gave me. Thanks.
[16:04] <syth> Alright i get it ...this is a support channel... I'm calm now
[16:05] <k1l_> aruns: are you sure its a 15.10 iso? i only see errors like that for 12.04 installs back then
[16:06] <aruns> k1l_: Oh, it seems to be working now, I think original installation just froze for some reason.
[16:06] <k1l_> aruns: can you show a "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999" too
[16:06] <Richard_Zhao> Oh shit, I still got that error when I run apt-get install kodi

I usually do backups by dd'ing /home on another hd, but this time, I want to backup everything, not just home. Can anyone tell me how to do that? Thank you!
[16:07] <aruns> k1l_: If I am not going to be using Ubuntu for any memory intensive tasks, do I not have to select a partition for swap space?
[16:07] <aruns> Or is it recommended?
[16:07] <k1l_> aruns: how much ram you got?
[16:07] <nauticalnexus> yeah I was about to say that
[16:07] <k1l_> aruns: you need swap for swapping ram and for hibernation (suspend 2 disk)
[16:07] <baizon> kreativerusernam: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem
[16:08] <nauticalnexus> >8GB should be fine without swap
[16:08] <ita> will the ubuntu xenial installer support zfs? it does not seem to come with zfs utils such as zpool
[16:08] <aruns> It is going to be installed on a 100GB partition.
[16:08] <MonkeyDust> ita  #ubuntu+1
[16:08] <aruns> Should I maybe take a chunk out of that for swap space?
[16:08] <baizon> ita: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Reference/ZFS
[16:09] <nauticalnexus> aruns: how many GB of RAM do you have
[16:09] <k1l_> aruns: <k1l_> aruns: how much ram you got?
[16:09] <k1l_> aruns: if you ask, please read the answers and questions, too
[16:09] <ita> MonkeyDust: baizon: thanks
[16:09] <aruns> k1l_: I think about 2 - 4 GB of RAM.
[16:09] <aruns> nauticalnexus: About 2 - 4.
[16:10] <aruns> Not sure, as on installation screen.
[16:10] <syth> I use 4 Gb helps all the time
[16:10] <k1l_> aruns: you need swap
[16:10] <nauticalnexus> I have 8. and 16 on my desktop. Definitely gonna want swap
[16:10] <k1l_> aruns: the installer got a "automatic install procedure" for whole disks. as beginner use that
[16:10] <vervet> aruns: dedicate some swap, it's good for fallback
[16:11] <ChunkzZ> I'll just speak to myself then. :/
[16:11] <aruns> OK, how much of the 100GB should I take out for swap?
[16:11] <nauticalnexus> aruns: maybe 10. Dunno, never used swap
[16:11] <ChunkzZ> anyone explain what this does "acpi_osi=" ?
[16:11] <aruns> I'm just going to be using it for installing videos.
[16:11] <aruns> Nothing else.

[16:12] <ChunkzZ> baizon, you're very helpful. -.-
[16:12] <baizon> nauticalnexus: if you dont know the answer then please dont answer. Dont make curious assumptions.
[16:12] <nauticalnexus> baizon: apologies
[16:12] <baizon> nauticalnexus: np, it just will confuse
[16:12] <k1l_> aruns: swap=ram size
[16:13] <ChunkzZ> sigh.
[16:13] <vervet> ChunkzZ: it's a kernel parameter for getting acpi to work with your hardware
[16:14] <kreativerusernam> If I tell SimpleBackupSuite to backup /, it will backup everything (including /home), right?
[16:14] <vervet> ChunkzZ: I had to set it for example to get laptop brightness keys to work
[16:14] <ChunkzZ> this I already know but why can I only change my brightness when that is in grub?!
[16:14] <ChunkzZ> ^
[16:14] <vervet> there are a couple different ones you can set
[16:14] <vervet> one sec
[16:15] <baizon> ChunkzZ: "Disable the check of power state. Option two modifies the list of supported OS interface strings (changes the OS compatibility reported to the BIOS). Necessary on some broken BIOSes to make temperature/fan control work. "
[16:15] <aruns> OK, looking up RAM.
[16:16] <baizon> vervet ChunkzZ you mean this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Common_Kernel_Options
[16:16] <kreativerusernam> If I have a backup of my complete file system, will I be able to boot from the backup hard drive and have a system that is exactly like the one I currently have?
[16:16] <aruns> Thanks for all the help guys, I have Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS but installed that on an old Dell Latitude D610 and didn't really know about anything like swap space before going in.
[16:16] <vervet> baizon: yep, thanks, was looking for the ubuntu link
[16:16] <stacy-> how can i change the user password insisde myphhpadmin for opencart
[16:16] <k1l_> aruns: "sudo lshw -short -C memory"
[16:16] <vervet> ChunkzZ: from arch but this is actually what I followed: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/backlight#Kernel_command-line_options
[16:17] <Riidio> hi guy's... simple question... in vmware better use 32 or 64bit for distro linux?
[16:17] <spinza> any repository issues we should know about?
[16:17] <sulfasal> using $find <dir> -type f -name '*.mp3' >> playlist.m3u How do I keep the command from descending into lower dirs?
[16:17] <baizon> Riidio: depends on the memory you set for the VM, but 64 will be better
[16:17] <Riidio> only 2gb
[16:17] <Riidio> ram
[16:17] <Riidio> for this my choose is 32bit
[16:17] <vervet> sulfasal: try -maxdepth 1
[16:17] <k1l_> Riidio: there is no need to run 32bit if the hardware can run 64bit
[16:18] <k1l_> Riidio: no matter how much ram you got
[16:18] <sulfasal> vervet: goin in...
[16:18] <Riidio> my laptop is 64bit
[16:18] <baizon> Riidio: then use 64 bit
[16:18] <Riidio> but in vmware don't know if is better 32 or better 64
[16:18] <Riidio> ok, thx bro
[16:20] <userxubunt> hola, hay personas hispanas/españoles en este chat?
[16:20] <baizon> !es | userxubunt

[16:21] <userxubunt> vale, muchas gracias
[16:22] <ChunkzZ> vervet, can you tell me where I do this  modprobe asus-nb-wmi because my laptop is asus

[16:25] <ChunkzZ> baizon, you're starting to annoy me if I'm honest.

[17:05] <adsf> is it possible to re-install all base packages? Iv seemed to have seriously screwed apt-get :p
[17:06] <baizon> adsf: i think reinstalling will go faster
[17:06] <adsf> ahh bummer
[17:06] <adsf> had configs and stuff i wanted :(
[17:06] <baizon> adsf: you dont have to format
[17:07] <baizon> adsf: just reinstall the / (root) and you will get everything back
[17:07] <adsf> oh, just install over the top?
[17:07] <adsf> sounds good
[17:07] <adsf> im on 14.10, think its too risky to reinstall 15.04 over the top?
[17:07] <baizon> adsf: 14.10 and 15.04 are EOL, 15.10
[17:08] <adsf> ok, see any huge risk for instlal 15.10 over the top of 14.10?
[17:08] <baizon> adsf: i would recommend to format / but not /home, then your settings are save
[17:08] <adsf> to try fix all this apt-get screw up :p
[17:09] <\ni> reza_sam96, Sry. I  think I misread your question. You are looking for google earth app for linux, and not trying to program o clone of it. right?

[17:32] <n-iCe> hi
[17:37] <mrarm_> hello
[17:39] <Guest18604> hi
[17:40] <rlens> anyone can to help me?
[17:41] <MonkeyDust> rlens  start with a question
[17:45] <rlens> i have a copy of boot sector of my HDD  - first 512 bytes in file my_hdd_boot_sector.dat, how i cat create bootable usb flash to start boot from this file and continue from HDD?
[17:46] <ratrace> rlens: which bootloader is that?
[17:46] <MonkeyDust> challenging... has this ever been tried?
[17:47] <rlens> don't know, may be grub4dos?
[17:47] <ratrace> well that's just the bootloader, hence my question. no grub config or anything in there.
[17:47] <leachim6>  I mean if you just wanna make an HDD bootable that's way easier
[17:47] <ratrace> in other words, if that was a regular grub bootloader, you can achieve the same by simply running grub-install on whatever device
[17:48] <leachim6> ^
[17:49] <mrarm_> Hey does anybody know since i have a trackpad on a macbook can i get the right click function where i can click in the bottom right of the screen.
[17:49] <leachim6> I think there is an extra package for that
[17:49] <leachim6> lemme check
[17:49] <rlens> i need start booting from file on my bootable flash becose of the first 512 bytes on my HDD are cleared
[17:50] <leachim6> just run "sudo grun-install /dev/whatever"
[17:50] <leachim6> at the very least you'll get a boot prompt
[17:50] <leachim6> s/grun-install/grub-install
[17:50] <ratrace> rlens: the bootloader in those 512 bytes is only the first stage. you can't just move it elsewhere and expect the same results.
[17:50] <leachim6> ratrace: +1
[17:51] <leachim6> why don't you tell us what you're trying to accomplish in the long run here
[17:51] <leachim6> mrarm_: you might try this -> https://medium.com/@sspinatelli/apple-magic-trackpad-gestures-on-ubuntu-8aaa4b66a9e2#.8jaz6k439
[17:51] <XATRIX> HI, i can't install fglrx or fglrx-updates
[17:51] <leachim6> define "can't"
[17:52] <EriC^> XATRIX: why not?
[17:52] <mrarm_> any messages?
[17:52] <XATRIX> I tried to change gcc\g++ version from 5 -> 4.9 but still no go
[17:52] <EriC^> XATRIX: you shouldn't have to change it
[17:52] <EriC^> XATRIX: what does sudo apt-get install fglrx give you?
[17:52] <blanko> Need help
[17:52] <EriC^> XATRIX: * sudo apt-get install fglrx-updates
[17:52] <leachim6> blanko: please ask a question
[17:53] <XATRIX> EriC^, give a sec. i'll paste
[17:53] <lectus> Hi! I have Ubuntu 14.04 installed and it's working fine. The only thing I miss is being able to sync videos to the iPod. I tried gtkpod but it doesn't recognize the video format. Any help?
[17:53] <leachim6> lectus: which iPod do you have?
[17:54] <lectus> Nano video 4th gen 16GB
[17:54] <blanko> leachim6 I have problem with SD cadr reader  realtek 522a in ubuntu 15.10 not mounted
[17:54] <leachim6> lectus: well I would tell you to install Rockbox and just drag/drop the videos but I don't think the 4th gen nano is supported :/
[17:54] <leachim6> blanko: what type of problem?
[17:55] <blanko> leachim6 not detected SD reader
[17:55] <leachim6> can you see the reader in lsusb ?
[17:56] <lectus> leachim6: yeah.. this version of the ipod requires itunes... I can't just treat it like usb mass storage
[17:56] <XATRIX> EriC^^, http://ur1.ca/osv4e
[17:56] <blanko> not see
[17:56] <leachim6> well all versions of the ipod require itunes with apple firmware, rockbox is a replacement for that
[17:57] <blanko> leachim6 not see in lsusb
[17:57] <EriC^^> XATRIX: you're running an out of repo release of a kernel?
[17:58] <rlens> for boot from file in windows i must next changing boot.ini:
[17:58] <rlens> multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Unencrypted Windows XP" /fastdetect
[17:58] <rlens> multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Encrypted Win-XP" /fastdetect
[17:58] <rlens> C:\WINDOWS\my_hdd_boot_sector.dat="My Loader" and how i can to create bootable
[17:58] <rlens> flash with grub4dos?
[17:58] <XATRIX> EriC^^, sorry ? I trie to manually install .debs from mainline ppe
[17:58] <EriC^^> XATRIX: oh, it says the kernel headers isn't supported
[17:59] <EriC^^> it needs the headers for dkms
[17:59] <rlens> to starting boot from file my_hdd_boot_sector.dat?
[17:59] <XATRIX> EriC^^, yea, so this kernel is not suitable ?
[17:59] <leachim6> blanko: what type of card reader is it? integrated into a laptop?
[17:59] <EriC^^> i think so
[18:00] <nauticalnexus> So ever since I upgraded to GNOME 15.10 my battery status shows the wrong percentage in the top bar. This is a upower issue, as typing in "acpi -b" shows the correct percentage
[18:00] <blanko> leachim6: yes integrated into a laptop. Model: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 522a
[18:02] <leachim6> blanko: http://askubuntu.com/questions/731093/sd-card-reader-realtek-522a-not-working-in-dell-i7559-in-ubuntu-15-10
[18:03] <blanko> leachim6: i read this
[18:03] <blanko> and upgrade kernel to version 4.4.0-040400-generic
[18:03] <leachim6> oh, well that's what I'd tell you to do
[18:03] <leachim6> apparently there's a kernel patch for it, but IDK if it's in mainline yet
[18:04] <XATRIX> how can i reinstall 15.10 native kernel ?
[18:05] <EriC^^> XATRIX: just remove the one you installed and run sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-generic
[18:06] <ratrace> don't forget to re-run update-initramfs and grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg (or where your grub cfg is)
[18:06] <XATRIX> yea
[18:06] <ratrace> XATRIX: ^^^^
[18:06] <EriC^^> ratrace: no need, apt will run those automatically
[18:06] <geri> how can i see if my ubuntu system uses X11 or somth else? is there a terminal command?
[18:06] <ratrace> EriC^^: ah, you're right...
[18:07] <EriC^^> geri: type ps a
[18:08] <leachim6> who was having trouble with fglrx?
[18:08] <EriC^^> if you see /usr/bin/X next to your tty then it's X
[18:08] <MonkeyDust> geri  env | grep -i x11
[18:08] <leachim6> XATRIX: which version of ubuntu are you running?
[18:08] <geri> MonkeyDust: nothing returned
[18:09] <EriC^^> geri: ps a
[18:10] <geri> EriC^^: ideone.com/dlteCN
[18:10] <MonkeyDust> geri  ok, for reference, this is what it returns here  http://termbin.com/lg50
[18:10] <geri> EriC^^: http://ideone.com/dlteCN
[18:10] <XATRIX> EriC^^, why does it want to install linux-generic-4.2.0*, instead of 4.4.0 ?
[18:10] <EriC^^> XATRIX: 4.4 is 16.04
[18:11] <EriC^^> XATRIX: 4.2 is 15.10
[18:11] <leachim6> fglrx was deprecated in 16.04 according to the release notes which is why I asked what version you were on
[18:11] <XATRIX> ah
[18:11] <EriC^^> geri: yes, it's X
[18:12] <geri> EriC^^: can i install X11 or what is the diff between those?
[18:12] <EriC^^> geri: it should be X11 already
[18:13] <geri> EriC^^: how that?
[18:13] <EriC^^> geri: it's just the version number
[18:13] <aruns> Hi, if anyone is still here who was helping me earlier...
[18:13] <XATRIX> EriC^^, what's wrong with it ? http://ur1.ca/osv7v
[18:13] <EriC^^> geri: type man X
[18:13] <aruns> I have partitions set up for swap space and Ubuntu.
[18:13] <aruns> Do I need a shared data partition for Windows 7 / Ubuntu 15.10 or is it not necessary?
[18:14] <EriC^^> XATRIX: try sudo apt-get update
[18:14] <aruns> Is a shared data partition only needed if I install Ubuntu alongside Windows?
[18:14] <EriC^^> aruns: ubuntu can read windows partitions, windows can't read ubuntu's
[18:14] <leachim6> technically the ext2fs driver for windows still works
[18:15] <EriC^^> so you could have your stuff on windows somewhere and share it between them
[18:15] <leachim6> it gets whacky on unix permissions though
[18:15] <leachim6> but for reading, it's fine
[18:15] <XATRIX> corrrect
[18:15] <leachim6> you could always create a fat32 "shared" partition between systems for max compatibility
[18:15] <leachim6> but then you have the 4gb file size limit
[18:16] <corndoge> Hey, is anyone using z-push/d-push with postfix/dovecot? Outlook 2016 displays nothing and this is the log: http://hastebin.com/ejepagelub.coffee
[18:17] <aruns> Oh, so if I don't want to share data between the two OSes?
[18:17] <aruns> Shared data partition isn't needed?
[18:17] <aruns> I am following this as my guide: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/35807/how-to-harmonize-your-dual-boot-setup-for-windows-and-ubuntu/
[18:17] <nauticalnexus> aruns: nope. Not needed at all
[18:18] <nauticalnexus> apologies. I would've replied earlier to this but I'm currently attempting to get 16.04 installed. A shared data partition is not required unless you have files that you'd like to use in Windows and Ubuntu.
[18:19] <aruns> Ah, OK.
[18:19] <aruns> So if you have .odt files, for instance, that you want to edit in both MS Word and LibreOffice Writer?
[18:20] <Amara> Hi, Intel HDMI output is kill when using kernel 4.4 (16.04) 4.3 and others works fine, looks like it is a known issue but I couldn't find a solution yet, any ideas?
[18:21] <Amara> with the upcoming 16.04 I bet this will be a huge issue
[18:21] <nauticalnexus> Amara: I believe the channel you're looking for is #ubuntu+1
[18:22] <Amara> nauticalnexus, thx but I couldn't use the kernel 4.4 using 14.04 either, same issue, I know this is a kernel issue but..
[18:23] <aruns> OK, I have created enough space for Ubuntu and swap space.
[18:23] <aruns> Anything else I need to be mindful of for a dual boot?
[18:32] <rlens> hi there
[18:32] <leachim6> rlens: hey
[18:35] <balsamic> hello
[18:35] <aruns> Hi.
[18:35] <aruns> Should swap area partition be primary or logical?
[18:36] <nauticalnexus> aruns: primary
[18:36] <aruns> nauticalnexus: OK, thanks :) Not sure what difference between primary and logical is :P
[18:36] <tulphoon_> aruns, he's spreading bullshit, it should be logical
[18:36] <nauticalnexus> all partitions should be primary
[18:36] <nauticalnexus> what?
[18:36] <tulphoon_> swap are should be logical to be honest
[18:36] <tulphoon_> area*
[18:37] <n-iCe> You can put your swap
[18:37] <n-iCe> in a primary partition,
[18:37] <n-iCe> in a logical partition,
[18:37] <n-iCe> on a LVM volume (that's what I do)
[18:37] <n-iCe> and even in a file - that is said to make no noticeable difference nowadays.
[18:37] <Skuldane> Hello
[18:37] <balsamic> in need of some help, have different versions of swig installed, but 'swig' is pointing to version 2.0 instead of 3.0
[18:37] <emilen> а что это за чат ?! всем привет ....
[18:38] <tulphoon_> emilen, Это английский чат
[18:38] <balsamic> is there a simple way of changing it ? ('swig3.0' is recognized)
[18:38] <tulphoon_> нет выступая здесь в России
[18:39] <Skuldane> I installed Ubuntu on an old PC of mine and then installed the GUI desktop. I then installed the SSH-server app. I found the ipv4 address which was 10.0.0.***. I can connect locally no problem. When I am on a different network I can not seem to access it. From what reading I did it appears I need to open port 22 to allow ssh. I seem to be having an issue doing this. I selected the common service as other selected the PC under device
[18:39] <Skuldane> as 22 and enabled it. Reset the router, the rules show up. But alas I still cannot connect to it remotely.
[18:39] <emilen> what?
[18:40] <Amara> Skuldane, check your sshd config, check your firewall logs
[18:40] <Skuldane> which firewall?
[18:40] <tulphoon_> emilen, use english in here
[18:41] <tulphoon_> that's what i've meant :D
[18:41] <Amara> UFW? Might be installed, but I believe there should be a setting in sshd that will allow connections from all networks, it should do it
[18:41] <MonkeyDust> !ru
[18:41] <Skuldane> Any chance you could give more detailed directions or provide a link? Extremely new to ubuntu
[18:42] <Amara> Skuldane, search log or syslog in dash and try to find firewall logs
[18:42] <MonkeyDust> Skuldane  install openssh-client and -server
[18:42] <Skuldane> the ssh-server app is installed
[18:44] <Skuldane> What am i looking for in the log
[18:44] <Skuldane> found it
[18:45] <Amara> Skuldane, in syslog, ctrl + f, UFW, search for related event, block 22 maybe?
[18:45] <vervet> Skuldane: do you have port forwarding set up on your router?
[18:46] <Amara> btw you should first check if you got UFW installed
[18:46] <Skuldane> I went into my router (Comcast XB3 router) and went to port forwarding and created a common service called other selected the computer i made into a server as the device and set start and end port to 22 then restarted router, the rule is in effect
[18:47] <Skuldane> amara in my logs there are tons of UFW block lines
[18:47] <Skuldane> I do not see a reference to 22 though
[18:47] <aruns> Oh, are logical drives like virtual drives?
[18:47] <aruns> And primary drives are the physical drives?
[18:48] <Amara> Skuldane, your isp might be blocking your port 22 too, I believe us isps do that kind of shit
[18:49] <Skuldane> How do I check on UFW
[18:49] <Amara> just google can you see me
[18:49] <Amara> and put 22 in there
[18:49] <Amara> or go grc shilds up, and do the full test
[18:52] <ioria> Skuldane,  sudo lsof -i :22      and   sudo ufw status
[18:53] <Bashing-om> aruns: For the turorial on partitioning : https://iam.tj/kb/pc/boot/ and why .
[18:53] <geri> how install x on my ubuntu?
[18:53] <aruns> Bashing-om: Many thanks.
[18:54] <ioria> geri   mini.iso install ?
[18:54] <Skuldane> ioria what is teh first command for?
[18:54] <Skuldane> the second command says
[18:54] <Skuldane> Status: active  To                         Action      From --                         ------      ---- 22/tcp                     ALLOW       Anywhere 22/tcp (v6)                ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)
[18:54] <ioria> Skuldane,  check 22 port if is listening
[18:54] <geri> ioria: i would like to install using apt
[18:54] <Skuldane> How do i Check to see if it is listening
[18:55] <ioria> Skuldane,  don't paste in here, please use paste.ubuntu.com
[18:55] <Skuldane> Ok I will
[18:55] <ioria> geri   mini.iso install ?
[18:55] <leachim6> you can PM me your IP and I can scan you if you want
[18:55] <geri> ioria: what?
[18:55] <leachim6> if you have privacy concerns about that just use shields up like Amara said
[18:55] <ioria> geri   how did you install ubuntu ?
[18:56] <Skuldane> leachim6 who
[18:56] <leachim6> https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2
[18:56] <wodim> you can just whois him
[18:57] <wodim> 22/tcp open  ssh
[18:57] <wodim> ez
[18:57] <Skuldane> Are you guys talking to me or someone else? I am getting confused.
[18:57] <wodim> Skuldane: your port is open from here
[18:57] <leachim6> you dude
[18:57] <Skuldane> So my port is open...then what is problem
[18:57] <lorita> ziç
[18:57] <geri> ioria: in my virtual box using ubuntu-14.04.4-desktop-amd64.iso
[18:57] <ioria> geri   so you do have  X
[18:58] <wodim> Skuldane: to access your ssh server from another computer outside your network you need to specify your outside address, not the address inside your network
[18:58] <ioria> geri   xdpyinfo | grep version
[18:58] <Skuldane> Ok, how do I do that, and thank you.
[18:58] <wodim> Skuldane: google "what is my ip"
[18:59] <geri> ioria: look here: http://ideone.com/70RGw5
[18:59] <wodim> Skuldane: also understand that depending on your isp that IP address can change when you reboot the router or periodically
[18:59] <aruns> Also, apologies, but how do I choose the partitions to install Ubuntu on? I am on Installation type window.
[18:59] <Amara> btw you should practice offline till you can be sure that you can operate a ssh server pointed to internets
[18:59] <ioria> geri   what's that ?
[18:59] <aruns> There are checkboxes on each entry, but it seems to be only for formatting partitions.
[19:00] <rud0lf> what's ubuntu default program to open .pem cerificate file? i've chosen gedit and it overwriten default one
[19:00] <geri> ioria: http://ideone.com/DBFWCS
[19:00] <Skuldane> so I use the ip address google is saying that machine is
[19:00] <Skuldane> use filezilla type in my username and the pass and then port 22 right?
[19:00] <Amara> random bots can "hack" your pc in a matter of seconds if you configured something wrong, but basically hard to guess passwords and usernames should do that
[19:00] <geri> ioria: thats R studio installing a lib and it complains that it cannot find X and X11
[19:01] <Skuldane> Amara, what all is there to configure?
[19:02] <ioria> geri   yes.... but if you have a desktop, X (for ubuntu ) is ok... it'a a config/comp issue with that source
[19:02] <geri> fendur: how can i fix the config issue?
[19:02] <Amara> Skuldane, this might be a little advanced for starter but no harm in reading it: https://stribika.github.io/2015/01/04/secure-secure-shell.html
[19:03] <ioria> geri   what is the source link ?
[19:03] <geri> ioria: where?
[19:03] <Skuldane> when I type the super long ipv6 looking address google gave me for that server filezilla tells me "could not parse server address Invalid port given, the port has to be a value from 1-65535" i set port as 22 though
[19:04] <ioria> geri   from where did you take that package from ?
[19:04] <geri> ioria: in sources.list?
[19:04] <wodim> Skuldane: use ipv4 instead
[19:04] <Skuldane> just tried that
[19:04] <Skuldane> just imes out
[19:05] <Skuldane> *imes
[19:05] <Skuldane> *times
[19:05] <geri> ioria: do you talk about the source in R studio trying to install right?
[19:05] <wodim> Skuldane: from another computer or from a computer inside your network?
[19:05] <ioria> geri   right
[19:05] <ioria> geri   from here https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=234 ?
[19:05] <Skuldane> from a laptop i have on a public hotspot to test to make sure I can connect remotely, I can connect fine locally
[19:06] <wodim> Skuldane: public hotspots do probably block some ports such as the port ssh uses, try on another connection, but I can tell you I can connect from here.
[19:06] <geri> ioria: this package is downloaded automatically
[19:06] <aruns> Hi, how do I choose partitions to install Ubuntu onto? I am on Installation Type window.
[19:06] <geri> ioria: i check where from
[19:06] <aruns> There are checkboxes for partitions, but that's only for formatting.
[19:06] <Skuldane> ok afk a few mins then
[19:06] <aruns> Is there a way to highlight the partitions to install onto?
[19:07] <geri> ioria: see here: http://ideone.com/70RGw5
[19:08] <geri> ioria: ideone hides the link...
[19:08] <_0x90> anybody else having sound issues after the latest update?
[19:08] <geri> ioria: from https://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/rgl_0.95.1441.tar.gz
[19:08] <_0x90> I'm on 15.10
[19:09] <Skuldane> wodim it worked!
[19:09] <wodim> nice
[19:09] <Skuldane> one mroe question
[19:11] <mint> hiii
[19:11] <Skuldane> I am using this to share files with friends etc. I can make seperate users ffor them for private stuff, but what about a nice public storage area. What is best way? More importantly I have a second hard drive in there, where is the hierarchy is it located so that we can all store stuff there from our own users
[19:11] <Skuldane> Does that make sense?
[19:11] <aruns> _0x90: For sound issues, on Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS, I have generally found that purging pulse audio and the other sound driver in command line usually works, then you reinstall sound drivers of course.
[19:11] <wodim> Skuldane: as far as I know there's no way to make ssh not request for authentication, you might want to use ftp instead
[19:11] <ioria> geri   i don't get that error in configure ...
[19:12] <Skuldane> which ftp should I use
[19:12] <geri> ioria: ./configure ?
[19:12] <ioria> geri   yes
[19:12] <ioria> geri   you miss some -dev packages
[19:12] <geri> ioria: ok which ones? :D
[19:13] <_0x90> aruns: ok i'll try that
[19:13] <geri> ioria:  libglu1-mesa libglu1-mesa-dev ?
[19:13] <ioria> geri   have you read the README ?
[19:13] <ioria> geri   start with those
[19:14] <aruns> How do I select partitions to install Ubuntu onto in Installation Type window:?
[19:15] <_0x90> aruns: the weird thing is that the sound on login works, also the sound tests work but anything else like my browser or media player do not create any sound
[19:16] <aruns> _0x90: Have you checked the preferences for the affected applications?
[19:17] <Bashing-om> !sound | _0x90
[19:17] <aruns> _0x90: See if this helps https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/chrome/fKl3gZs_RA0/0JR-05LEBwAJ
[19:18] <aruns> _0x90: Not sure if this is your browser, but it's a good starting point.
[19:18] <Skuldane> Weird, I am trying to login as root through putty on the server I setup, the password does not appear to be working, I only seup 3 passwords on this server so far so I know I am not using wrong one...whats going on?
[19:19] <geri> ioria: now configure shows no error :D
[19:19] <ioria> geri   good job
[19:19] <DummyWitty> today i saw this article: http://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2011/05/face-authentication-face-recognition.html
[19:19] <Mathisen> Skuldane, try to login as not root and then su ... i think root can be blocked as default some times... im not 100% in this
[19:19] <DummyWitty> has anyone here tried this face-authentification thing?
[19:19] <aruns> Now, ow do I select partitions to install Ubuntu onto in Installation Type window? I am trying to dual boot Win 7 and Ubuntu 15.10, I have a roughly 95 GB EXT4 partition for the OS and 4GB partition for Linux swap space
[19:19] <geri> ioria: how to deal with this issue on osx, i dont use x11 on osx!
[19:19] <geri> ioria: any idea?
[19:20] <ioria> geri   never used osx, sorry
[19:21] <aruns> Could anyone help me with this, please?
[19:22] <_0x90> Thanks guys, installing the pulse audio volume control and change
[19:22] <_0x90> changing the settings worked :)
[19:22] <aruns> _0x90: Excellent, glad we could help.
[19:23] <Jordan_U> aruns: It's generally easier to not create the partitions beforehand and just let the installer create them for you.
[19:23] <DummyWitty> Skul: is root-ssh login turned on in conf file under /etc/ssh something?
[19:24] <paycom> o what kidn og machine?
[19:24] <aruns> Jordan_U: I tried that, but the installer was having trouble.
[19:24] <Jordan_U> aruns: What kind of "trouble"?
[19:24] <aruns> Ubi Partman kept crashing.
[19:25] <Jordan_U> aruns: Did you check the integrity of your installation media?
[19:25] <Ntemis> sup
[19:25] <aruns> Jordan_U: I did.
[19:25] <aruns> It was fine.
[19:25] <paycom> i think root login is disbaled by default on most ATMs
[19:29] <Skuldane> I am trying to edit my vsftd.config file and it wont let me save it saying it is read only and I dont have permission. I am on my admin account though.
[19:29] <paycom> admin account?
[19:29] <paycom> you have an admin acoount?
[19:29] <Skuldane> The account I am on says admin
[19:30] <Skuldane> its the first account I made
[19:30] <paycom> try sudo
[19:30] <Skuldane> how?
[19:31] <Ntemis> i need some help with libtool version mismatch
[19:31] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: sudoedit /path/to/file
[19:31] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Alternatively, "gksudo gedit /path/to/file".
[19:32] <Ntemis> if anyone knows how to fix this http://paste.ubuntu.com/15746559/ please help me out
[19:32] <Ntemis> l

[19:40] <ioria> Ntemis, check your source list
[19:40] <Ntemis> sec
[19:40] <ioria> Ntemis, ppa, proposed
[19:41] <Ntemis> hmm
[19:41] <ioria> Ntemis, dpkg -l | grep libtool
[19:42] <Ntemis> ioria: all fine here :(
[19:42] <ioria> Ntemis, apt-cache policy libtool
[19:42] <Ntemis> ioria: 2.4.2-1.7ubuntu1
[19:43] <Ntemis>  Installed: 2.4.2-1.7ubuntu1
[19:43] <Ntemis>   Candidate: 2.4.2-1.7ubuntu1
[19:43] <Ntemis> now what?
[19:43] <ioria> Ntemis, ok, what are you doing/installing ?
[19:43] <Ntemis> compiling
[19:44] <ioria> Ntemis, what ?
[19:44] <Ntemis> my router firmware
[19:45] <ioria> Ntemis, oh ...
[19:45] <Skuldane> I plugged in a second hard drive to my ubuntu computer, i just formatted it to ext4, where is the filepath to it
[19:45] <Ntemis> mount it first Skuldane
[19:45] <Skuldane> ok then what
[19:45] <Ntemis> then will auto show up
[19:46] <Skuldane> its showing up only under that user i was logged in as
[19:46] <Ntemis> yes
[19:46] <Skuldane> I want other users to be able to access it
[19:46] <Ntemis> then use disk utility
[19:46] <Ntemis> and reformat it
[19:46] <Skuldane> reformat it as what?
[19:46] <OSCAR___> WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO
[19:47] <Ntemis> ext4 ofc
[19:47] <Ntemis> press unmount
[19:47] <Ntemis> format it again
[19:47] <Ntemis> then press play icon will mount it
[19:47] <Skuldane> it just mounts it right back ot that single user
[19:48] <Jordan_U> Ntemis: Skuldane: I see no reason to "format" the filesystem again.
[19:48] <Skuldane> I must be missing something, sorry.
[19:48] <Ntemis> it should be writable to all users
[19:48] <OSCAR___> JORDAN WHAT DO I NEED TO DO
[19:49] <Skuldane> When i switch user and locate it it says I do not have permission
[19:50] <ioria> Ntemis, wait for Xenial ? :·)
[19:51] <Ntemis> but it needs older libtool not newer?
[19:51] <ioria> Ntemis, newer , i guess
[19:51] <Ntemis> ah
[19:51] <hep7> hell
[19:51] <hep7> o
[19:51] <Ntemis> ioria: nice to know
[19:51] <Ntemis> so proposed has it?
[19:51] <hep7> yes it is
[19:51] <Ntemis> repo i mean
[19:52] <hep7> repo?
[19:52] <ioria> Ntemis, i can't advice to do that
[19:52] <Ntemis> i will enable it
[19:52] <Ntemis> re install libtool and disable it
[19:52] <Ntemis> no?
[19:52] <ioria> Ntemis, as i said, i can't advice to do that
[19:53] <m0rdo> hey
[19:53] <ioria> Ntemis, just few days ...
[19:53] <Skuldane> The 2nd hard drive shows up under devices but it can only be accessed by the user who created it, how do I make it a shared location that any user logged in can access?
[19:54] <Ntemis> ioria: yes i guess you are right
[19:54] <ioria> Ntemis, good luck
[19:54] <Ntemis> thanks man
[19:54] <Ntemis> and thank you for your time
[19:54] <ioria> Ntemis, you're wlc
[19:55] <m0rdo> I have a question(for who can help me).How can I surf on internet anonimous.(sorry for my bad english :( )
[19:56] <MonkeyDust> m0rdo  wit tor-browser
[19:56] <MonkeyDust> with*
[19:56] <MonkeyDust> m0rdo  https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en
[19:56] <m0rdo> thanks
[19:57] <m0rdo> MonkeyDust do you know about ZeroNet?
[19:57] <MonkeyDust> m0rdo  but layout scripts and media streaming are disabled in tor-browser
[19:58] <m0rdo> aaa ok
[20:03] <Skuldane> Can someone please tell em or point me to a guide that will allow me to setup my 2nd Hard Drive on Ubuntu so that any user can access and read/write onto it.
[20:05] <Skuldane> wodim are you still around?
[20:07] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: If it just contains documents then you can chmod 777 the root directory to allow anyone to read/write files there.
[20:07] <Skuldane> jordan_u no I need it for all kinds of files and documents
[20:08] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: I meant to only exclude for example a full GNU/Linux installation where 777 permissions would be insecure and break things.
[20:09] <Skuldane> how do i chmod it or whatnot
[20:10] <Bashing-om> Skuldane: What is the file system on this 2nd hard drive, and how do you intend to access it ?
[20:11] <Skuldane> its a blank hard drive, i formatted it to ext4, I am just trying to make it accessible by all users, like a D drive or something. I am using the computer as a server for my friends and I to store and ahre files and when I mount thedrive only the user I was logged into as has access to it
[20:13] <Bashing-om> Skuldane: ext4 access rights are at the mount point . How are you mounting the file system ?
[20:13] <DummyWitty> give write/read permissions to others ?
[20:15] <Skuldane> what do you mean how am i monting it? I am mounting through teh disk tool
[20:16] <Bashing-om> Skuldane: Consider: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131 <- bodhi.zazen -Understanding fstab .
[20:18] <Skuldane> Maybe I am wording this badly, I just want that drive to work the same as a second drive in Windows, in windows when i plug in a new hard drive it shows up as D or E or whatever letter is next in line. But it is able to be accessed and written in by any user. Why/how can I do that in Ubuntu?
[20:19] <jared_> how is everyone today?
[20:20] <jared_> anyone on?
[20:20] <Bashing-om> Skuldane: That then is an external drive , and is mounted under  GVFS. Not too sure how that works to change the access rights .
[20:21] <EriC^^> Skuldane: what's the filesystem of the partitions in it?
[20:21] <Skuldane> I did not creater any partitiojns in it, just formatted as ext4 first then tried NTFS.
[20:22] <EriC^^> Skuldane: ntfs should work
[20:22] <Skuldane> when i mount it, it is only accessible by the user who mounted it
[20:22] <EriC^^> Skuldane: i thought you wanted to have it automount in windows as D: ?
[20:22] <Skuldane> no i was using that as an example. I just want it to be a seperate drive that ANY user can access
[20:23] <Skuldane> Its on my ubuntu system
[20:23] <Skuldane> and only the user who mounts it can acess it
[20:23] <EriC^^> Skuldane: check the link Bashing-om gave you and use fstab to mount it with the proper permissions
[20:23] <Skuldane> ok brb
[20:23] <EriC^^> fmask=000,dmask=000,umask=000
[20:26] <gk__> on starting google chrome i get this error? and my chrome crashes[freeze my ubuntu] many times a day. specialy on watching video on youtube http://pastebin.com/8wCJE0ug
[20:26] <Skuldane> That link looks like way too much work for the simple operation I am trying to do. I am new to ubuntu, but I do not think it should be this freaking hard to add a drive and access it.
[20:27] <gk__> Sory for bad link http://pastebin.com/hTjUm3fm
[20:29] <Bashing-om> Skuldane: It is not .. but to understand .. well there is a learning curve. Linux, your system, and You have complete control . That control entails responsibility .
[20:33] <sleety> Hi do any of you guys have katoolin in your ubuntu?
[20:33] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Simple instructions: Right click the directory this fileystem is mounted to -> select "Properties". In the window that comes up select permissions and allow all users full access. Done.
[20:35] <owen> is there a way to tell from the command line what fonts my xterm is using?
[20:38] <gk__>  on starting google chrome i get this error? and my chrome crashes[freeze my ubuntu] many times a day. specialy on watching video on youtube  http://pastebin.com/hTjUm3fm
[20:39] <Skuldane> Jordan_U says teh owner is root and wont let em change, but I logged into the first account I made that is set as admin
[20:41] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Ok, then we need to use chmod with sudo. What is the path to this directory? (If you don't know, then pastebin the output of "mount" or just drag the directory into the terminal window).
[20:42] <Skuldane>   /media/archive i think
[20:42] <Skuldane> archive is the user
[20:43] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: That doesn't sound like the correct path. Please pastebin the output of "mount".
[20:44] <Skuldane> what do you mean "mount" the hard drive?
[20:45] <Skuldane> I do appreciate your patience and help.
[20:46] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Open a terminal and run simply "mount" the  copy and paste the output to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com and share the link with us.
[20:46] <Jordan_U> *then
[20:46] <gk__> on starting google chrome i get this error? and my chrome crashes[freeze my ubuntu] many times a day. specialy on watching video on youtube  http://pastebin.com/hTjUm3fm ??help
[20:47] <Skuldane> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15748131/
[20:48] <Ulther> Welcome Ubuntu user :)
[20:48] <Skuldane> Just so you know this was run through the terminal I am currently on through Putty, not the physical computer. if that makes a difference
[20:48] <Skuldane> also both the user and the drive are called archive
[20:50] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: /media/archive/Archive is the path to the mountpoint, but I thought you said this had an ext4 filesystem. It appears to be ntfs.
[20:50] <Skuldane> originally it was, someone else said to try ntfs
[20:50] <Skuldane> should i revert back
[20:51] <DevTechs911> hello am a new user to ubuntu os do they have a way to customize the guest session to be able too have only restriction software that the guest session could use
[20:52] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Yes. Also, this time use GParted to partition the drive (right now you have a filesystem without a partition table, which generally works but can lead to issues).
[20:52] <Skuldane> Is gparted already installed?
[20:52] <Jordan_U> DevTechs911: No pre-designed solution, no.
[20:53] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: You can install it easily via Software Center or "sudo apt-get install gparted".
 maybe i expland wrong what i need to do i wanna have a guest session but i wanna install some software inside that sesion that will be only for guest users so they cannot play with other software
[20:55] <Jordan_U> DevTechs911: I understood, and while that is possible to setup yourself it is not at all easy.
[20:56] <DevTechs911> i see
[20:57] <meles> I'm having a video that doesn't play very smooth with VLC (ogv format vorbis). With totem it plays nicely but i need the function that the playback stops after every video in the playlist. Does anybody have a suggestion how to fix it or which mediaplayer to take? (ubuntu 14.04)
[21:00] <Skuldane> jordan_u Ok i reformattedand have gpart open, it is currently un allocated
[21:00] <EriC^^> DevTechs911: why dont you install the software as normal and then from the guest session they use it?
[21:00] <Skuldane> what do i do next
[21:00] <gk__> on starting google chrome i get this error? and my chrome crashes[freeze my ubuntu] many times a day. specialy on watching video on youtube  http://pastebin.com/hTjUm3fm
[21:01] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Create a new ext4 partition spanning the whole drive.
[21:01] <Skuldane> so in the "free space preceding (MiB)" box i max it out?
[21:02] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: No. Zero free space proceeding.
[21:02] <aruns> Hi, managed to dual boot Ubuntu 15.10 and Windows 7 now.
[21:02] <Skuldane> wont let me put 0
[21:02] <Skuldane> 1 is lowest
[21:02] <aruns> I know that Linux is supposed to be very secure in general.
[21:02] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Then 1.
[21:03] <aruns> But is it still worth installing a virus scanner for Linux such as Sophos?
[21:03] <jj2157> hey quick question...does anyone know a good chat room for Ruby on Rails stuff?
[21:03] <k1l_> Skuldane: the pationing tool aligns the partitions to hardware zylinders. so it might be that its not going to 0
[21:03] <Bashing-om> !virus | aruns
[21:03] <stacy-> what is the command to copy everything using nano and pasting it in pastebin?
[21:04] <k1l_> aruns: nope. still the same setup: dont install unknown stuff and dont run unknown code
[21:04] <k1l_> stacy-: "pastebinit /path/to/file"
[21:06] <gk__> help me!! on starting google chrome i get this error? and my chrome crashes[freeze my ubuntu] many times a day. specialy on watching video on youtube  http://pastebin.com/hTjUm3fm
[21:06] <amrsalvado> greetings from portugal
[21:07] <k1l_> gk__: what chrome version? what ubuntu?
[21:08] <gk__> ubuntu 14.04 lts [64 bit] and chrome Version 49.0.2623.112 (64-bit)
[21:08] <Mitchell92> Hello. I've purchased a lovely Dell notebook to run ubuntu on. I have disabled that disable touch pad while typing, but it would be nice to be able to disable by using some key sequence like while typing a report and re-enable the same way. Does anyone know of some way I can add said functionality?
[21:09] <gk__> k11: ubuntu 14.04 lts [64 bit] and chrome Version 49.0.2623.112 (64-bit)
[21:09] <Mitchell92> Additionally dust is building up, especially around where the keyboard touches being that the keyboard has lines around it, basically consistent with one that is easily user replaceable. Just wanted to clean that up, it isnt on the screen part but just another part below it that is glass and adds dust.
[21:09] <gk__> k11_: ubuntu 14.04 lts [64 bit] and chrome Version 49.0.2623.112 (64-bit)
[21:10] <k1l_> gk__: what desktop?
[21:10] <Skuldane> jordan_u i reformatted it through gpart because I was having issues, now full size is free
[21:10] <gk__> k1l_:Desktop??? I dont get it.
[21:11] <k1l_> gk__: what desktop is it running? unity, gnome-shell, kde, etc?
[21:11] <Skuldane> jordan_u but now i have to select a partion ttype, which type do i want, msdos looks like default
[21:12] <gk__> k1l_:Gnome
[21:12] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: What do you mean "full size is free"? Just use GParted and allow it the preceeding 1 MiB, it's a good thing that ensures proper alignment.
[21:13] <Skuldane> jordan_u this is really difficult to explain through here, you got a skype we can use by chance?
[21:13] <k1l_> gk__: rename the ~/.config/google-chrome  folder. then start chrome again
[21:13] <makara> hi. I'm having trouble getting my regular updates on Ubuntu 15.04. http://pastebin.com/MPRWAgjy
[21:13] <MonkeyDust> makara  15.04 is dead
[21:14] <k1l_> makara: upgrade to 15.10 asap
[21:14] <makara> MonkeyDust, sorry that's 15.10
[21:14] <MonkeyDust> makara  ok, nvm, wily is 15.10
[21:14] <ed__> Hi I have the problem that my cd drive from my laptop is not supported under ubuntu 15.10. Any suggstions
[21:14] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: No. Feel free to post screenshots as needed but it seemed like GPareted was working fine.
[21:14] <alkisg> makara: try to disable ipv6, in network manager connection editor select "local only", not "ignore"
[21:14] <bekks> ed__: how do you determine that?
[21:14] <k1l_> makara: that looks like an ipv6 issue
[21:16] <ed__> The problem occured as I wanted to burn a Cd.
[21:16] <bekks> ed__: Which problem?
[21:17] <ed__> wait a minute
[21:18] <Skuldane> jordan_u ok i guess i did it right, it had me select a partition type, msdos was default so i left it at that, it is now all 1 partition
[21:18] <ed__> Can not be be mounted because it it already mounted.
[21:19] <bekks> ed__: Which is totally different from you original description.
[21:19] <makara> alkisg, this worked. thx all
[21:19] <bekks> ed__: So unmount your cd drive, and use it.
[21:20] <alkisg> makara, you're welcome
[21:21] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Great. Now mount it.
[21:21] <ed__> Thanks ....sometimes
[21:22] <Skuldane> Jordan_u Mount it to the Archive user right?
[21:22] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Any user will work, just be sure you know the path.
[21:23] <ed__> But I could not boot from cd either
[21:24] <Skuldane> jordan_u looks like media/archive/Sector 1
[21:24] <sleety> hi
[21:24] <bekks> ed__: did you create/use a bootable cd?
[21:24] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: OK. Please pastebin the output of "mount" again just to be sure.
[21:24] <ed__> Yes
[21:24] <amar> bsr
[21:25] <bekks> ed__: on another computer?
[21:25] <Skuldane> jordan_u http://paste.ubuntu.com/15748798/
[21:25] <ed__> The dvd will boot perfectly on my tower but not on my laptop. It is caelinux/xubuntu on the live dvd
[21:26] <bekks> ed__: so what happens on your laptop?
[21:26] <ed__> I have the boot order in Bios for Cd on firt prio but it just go ahead to the gnu bootloader
[21:26] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: sudo chmod 777 "/media/archive/Sector 1"
[21:27] <bekks> ed__: so is your cd drive able to read dvd too?
[21:27] <ed__> YYes it is
[21:27] <ed__> I am burning; thanks to your help, as we speak a dvd.
[21:27] <Skuldane> jordan_u how do i know if it worked, it asked for password but i got no confirmaiton after command
[21:28] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: For most commands no output means success.
[21:28] <Skuldane> ok so now any user should eb able to access?
[21:29] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Yes.
[21:29] <Skuldane> jordan_u
[21:29] <Skuldane> Status:	Retrieving directory listing of "/media/archive"... Command:	cd "/media/archive" Error:	Directory /media/archive: permission denied Error:	Failed to retrieve directory listing
[21:31] <noraatepernos> I’m a little confused by something.  Does installing ntp with its default conf help you maintain local system time or is it simply a service available on port 123 for *other* servers in your network to utilize by their own ntpdate command?
[21:31] <Skuldane> jordan_u Locally as well on the actualy computer, i logged into a different user and I cannot access that
[21:31] <Skuldane> jordan_u its the archive folder
[21:32] <noraatepernos> https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/NTP.html suggests both maybe.
[21:34] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Then we will need to create an fstab entry. If you pastebin the output of "sudo blkid" then I can tell you what entry to add.
[21:34] <Skuldane> jordan_u http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15748942/
[21:35] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: First we create a mountpoint, it can be whatever you want it to be but "/archive/" seems reasonable. "sudo mkdir /archive/"
[21:36] <Skuldane> ok
[21:36] <Skuldane> jordan_u did that, got no response once again so i assume it worked
[21:37] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Indeed. Now open your /etc/fstab by running "EDITOR=gedit sudoedit /etc/fstab" note that that really is one line, with no ';'.
[21:40] <Skuldane> jordan_u ok it opened a file
[21:40] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Once your fstab is opened in Gedid, add a new line to the end for the file with the following contents:
[21:40] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: UUID=653e5772-084d-41d6-b333-d90687292859 /archive ext4   defaults        0       2
[21:41] <ericcaron> today i have seen the dragon , have you?
[21:41] <Jordan_U> !ot | ericcaron
[21:43] <Skuldane> jordan_u all on one line or 2
[21:43] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: One line.
[21:43] <Skuldane> best way to copy and paste it over
[21:43] <Skuldane> ?
[21:43] <Skuldane> its splitting into to lines and I dont know the spacing
[21:43] <cfhowlett> !paste | Skuldane
[21:44] <Skuldane> its on another computer
[21:44] <stacy-> how do i exit vi without saving... please help
[21:44] <EriC^^> :q!
[21:45] <EriC^^> press esc, then :q!
[21:45] <Jordan_U> stacy-: escape then ":q!" then enter.
[21:45] <alexandre> boa noite
[21:45] <Skuldane> jordan_u got it
[21:45] <Skuldane> now what
[21:45] <alexandre> good night
[21:45] <EriC^^> good night
[21:47] <alexandre> i need help to install ScadaBR in my Ubuntu Mate.I have installed java, Tomcat8 (Most newer version), and copy ScadaBR.WAR to webapps folder, but, when i acces tomcat with localhost:8080, all be fine, when i try to acces localhost:8080/ScadaBR return me error 404/ acces denied.
[21:48] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Now save and close gedit.
[21:48] <alexandre> did somebody knows how to fix it?
[21:49] <Skuldane> jordan_u ok saved and closed
[21:49] <k1l_> alexandre: what is the folder you copied it too? and what user is the webserver running as? most times its www-data server
[21:50] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: sudo umount "/media/archive/Sector 1" && sudo mount -a
[21:51] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: After that any user should be able to read and write files in "/archive/".
[21:51] <alexandre> i have copied the file ScadaBR.war to /var/lib/tomcat8/webapps folder
[21:52] <jonathan_zz> alexandre: doesn't it need its own directory? I don't remember. Can you access the example that tomcat comes with?
[21:53] <k1l_> alexandre: i dont know tomcat. but look at what filepermissions/owner it needs to run with.
[21:53] <Skuldane> jordan_u command not workng
[21:53] <Skuldane> pastebin incoming
[21:54] <Skuldane> jordan_u http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15749187/
[21:54] <alexandre> no i cant access.. return me a HTTP Status 404 - /examples/
[21:54] <alexandre> type Status report

[21:54] <alexandre> description The requested resource is not available.
[21:54] <jonathan_zz> there is supposed to be a /sample/
[21:55] <alexandre> did i need to give access permission to folder/file??
[21:55] <jonathan_zz> I have a tomcat somewhere with an app, the owner of its files is tomcat8 for me.
[21:55] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: You forgot the quotation marks. If you copy and paste the command as I gave it it will work.
[21:56] <alexandre> i will try to access it with root user.. i came back in a little
[21:56] <Skuldane> how do you copy and paste in terminal
[21:57] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: Right click-> Copy (or paste). Alternatively ctrl+shift+c to copy and ctrl+shift+v to paste.
[21:57] <Skuldane> ok let me test
[21:57] <Skuldane> brb
[22:00] <_3by8> Has anyone had any success installing Rails on the new Windows Subsystem for Linux?
[22:01] <Skuldane> jordan_u now that we did that can I delete the archive user account or will i mess it up
[22:01] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: You can delete the archive user account any time.
[22:02] <Skuldane> Jordan_u thank you so much for your help. I wish I could buy you a beer.
[22:02] <Jordan_U> Skuldane: You're welcome :)
[22:03] <k1l_> _3by8: you might want to ask in #ubuntu-on-windows
[22:04] <_3by8> k1l_: thanks.
[22:09] <JethroTux> hi. I have some issues with suspension with my desktop. At first when suspending the system just restarted immediatly without suspending at all. I managed to solve this thank to acpitool disabling wakeup USB devices, then I made a simple 1-line bash command in order to keep the changes persistent loadin them at boot. The suspensio works smoothly now with virtual console, but when switching back to graphic console the system freezes and i have
[22:09] <JethroTux>  to reboot. Maybr it's about the graphic driver(nvidia-340). Can anybody help? yhx
[22:11] <thor_> trouble installing phpmyadmin on 16.04. localhost/phpmyadmin just spitting out sourcecode. php is working in www. what could be wrong?
[22:12] <Jordan_U> thor_: #ubuntu+1 for 16.04.
[22:12] <ikonia> 16.04 disucssion is in #ubuntu+1 as it's not released yet
[22:12] <thor_> oops.. sorry guys
[22:16] <eypeon> Hi everyone, I was wondering whether someone could help me with an issue I'm having. I have ImageMagick 6.9.3-6 and Ghostscript 9.15 installed. I am trying to convert a PDF into a thumbnail, but everyone I run the command, I receive a blank image with this PDF: http://mceducation.azurewebsites.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Anderson_Shelter.pdf
[22:16] <eypeon> Can anyone offer any advice on why this is happening on a Ubuntu 14.04 machine ?
[22:16] <reisio> eypeon: what command?
[22:16] <eypeon> convert
[22:17] <eypeon> That command I am using is convert Anderson_Shelter.pdf thumbnail.jpg
[22:18] <reisio> yeah seems like the PDF is so broken the tools all choke on it
[22:18] <reisio> maybe if you re-author it as a PDF with gs first, if you can
[22:18] <eypeon> It's strange because I have run the same command on Mac when developing locally
[22:18] <eypeon> And there are no issues
[22:18] <reisio> you have different fonts
[22:18] <eypeon> But when I run it on my Ubuntu machine it produces a blank thumbnail
[22:19] <eypeon> I had a feeling that might be the case, it shows up as CIDFont when I used pdftools to check the PDF
[22:19] <reisio> opens fine in GIMP, though
[22:19] <reisio> I s'pose cairo can handle it, in that case
[22:20] <eypeon> Any suggestions on how I could get it to work with Imagemagick?
[22:20] <reisio> eypeon: pdftocairo -jpeg foo.pdf
[22:22] <reisio> although this should probably be a PNG, not a JPEG
[22:22] <reisio> as there is nothing photographic about it
[22:22] <eypeon> That worked, but the issue I am facing is integrating this within a web application
[22:25] <reisio> http://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.10/Use.htm#CIDFontSubstitution might have some leads
[22:41] <blackroot> hello
[22:42] <reisio> 'lo black
[22:43] <B0bsF1sh> What exactly would ubuntu software center execute when I doubleclick a .deb file I downloaded? How can I do the same thing from the cmdline?
[22:43] <reisio> B0bsF1sh: gdebi, IIRC
[22:43] <B0bsF1sh> For upgrading an existing piece of software I mean
[22:44] <reisio> or just use xdg-open
[22:44] <pr0metheu5> Hey guys, my problem is with Fedora actually, but I'm hoping someone in here can help me.
[22:44] <k1l_> B0bsF1sh: use "dpkg -i " for cli
[22:44] <reisio> pr0metheu5: <headdesk>
[22:44] <B0bsF1sh> And that will do everything the software center would do - upgrade, dependencies, etc?
[22:44] <k1l_> B0bsF1sh: but that might make chaos when depencies are mixed then
[22:44] <pr0metheu5> I just installed Fedora 23 alongside Windows 10 and chose auto partitioning, but after installation and restarting, there is no grub menu and it boots straight into Windows 10. My mobo doesnt even support UEFI.
[22:44] <k1l_> pr0metheu5: #fedora please for fedora issues
[22:44] <pr0metheu5> I think it's not a problem pertraining to the distro, but linux in general.
[22:45] <bekks> pr0metheu5: then #linux is your friend
[22:45] <B0bsF1sh> I have an x-server, and I try launching gksudo nautilus and then dblclicking, but software center hangs. I tried launching gksudo software-center  and I can't find a way to browse inside there.
[22:45] <k1l_> B0bsF1sh: yes, it will try to get that depencies. but if the ubuntu repos dont have that explicit version it might make issues
[22:45] <Flannel> B0bsF1sh: gdebi will take care of dependencies, etc.  dpkg won't.
[22:46] <B0bsF1sh> Is gdebi graphical? I can try gksudo gdebi
[22:46] <Flannel> B0bsF1sh: gdebi has a graphical frontend, but you can also use it on the command line.
[22:46] <B0bsF1sh> ah nice. ty
[22:48] <supernova> hello
[22:48] <reisio> 'lo
[22:48] <mTeK> I need to run this idea by yall, I have a debian server with a software raid 1 and I don't want to drive an hour to replace the OS. Couldn't I just take the primary boot drive out of the array and dd a new ubuntu image on to it and reboot and fix the array after the reboot.
[22:48] <B0bsF1sh> Seems it can't be gdebi that it runs because when I try it I get, "The program 'gdebi' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:"
[22:49] <ikonia> mTeK: if you take the drive out - you have to drive an hour
[22:49] <ikonia> your logic is failing, unless I've missunderstood
[22:50] <B0bsF1sh> I read it as "out of the RAID array" not "physically out of the case"
[22:50] <ikonia> lets find out....
[22:51] <Flannel> B0bsF1sh: try xdg-open, that should open it in the "preferred" application.
[22:52] <B0bsF1sh> any suggestions for better xserver than xming for windows - things sometimes generally work but are wonky at other times. Multiple aps running have no titlebars or menus, I can't move them around, I would ideally like an enture Ubuntu unity desktop just as if I started it up that way, only thrown to my xserver
[22:52] <mTeK> Yes like to tell mdstat to take the drive out of the array and then fdisk it with new partitions. Then somehow dd a ubuntu the image onto the primary drive and reboot. Should be a ubuntu server then.
[22:52] <ikonia> B0bsF1sh: there are a few comercial ones that are strong,
[22:52] <ikonia> hummingbird xceed, pc-xware and a few others
[22:53] <ikonia> mTeK: I wouldn't trust that at all
[22:53] <B0bsF1sh> is xming just ... lacking and obsolete, or did I perhaps not configure something correctly
[22:53] <ikonia> mTeK: things like the fstab and grub config would need to be manipulated
[22:53] <ikonia> the disk partitions would need to line up with the image and the physical drive before you put it on
[22:53] <ikonia> files such as the persistent_net file would need updating correctly etc
[22:54] <ikonia> that seems like a huge risk
[22:54] <mTeK> I can dd a image from a VM on another hypervisor
[22:54] <ikonia> it's a different box
[22:54] <ikonia> the image would be configured for the source machine
[22:55] <mTeK> long as network has been chrooted and figured out linux don't care about switcing the other stuff
[22:55] <B0bsF1sh> Flannel: heh! xdg-open threw a software-center GUI to xming
[22:55] <ikonia> mTeK: yes it does
[22:55] <ikonia> mTeK: the partition id's, the boot sector, the grub config id's etc
[22:55] <ikonia> the mac address of the interfaces, there are many things
[22:57] <mTeK> I'm DD;ing a image from a runing server. Will mount the image after the server is shutdown and remove the persistante.70 rules for the nic and then it will assign eth0 the default
[22:57] <mTeK> I think this will work
[22:57] <ikonia> mTeK: I don't know why you are arguing this
[22:57] <ikonia> you asked if it's a good idea - I said "no" and give you the risks
[22:57] <ikonia> you disagree - thats fine, get on with it
[22:58] <ikonia> I don't know why you are trying to convince me it will be ok - I thin it's a bad idea for the reasons I've suggested
[22:58] <ikonia> if you think it's a good idea, don't ask if it's a good idea, and do it
[22:59] <mTeK> Oh I know it's a bad Idea but the more I argue with you the more things you will remind me that I need to fix before I reboot.
[22:59] <jonathan_zz> ikonia: this person never asked if it was a good idea and didn't even ask for your opinion, you just gave it.
[22:59] <ikonia> jonathan_zz: he did ask the channel if it was a good idea
[22:59] <jonathan_zz> mTeK: ;-).
[22:59] <mTeK> So fstab and udev rules and I think ish it will work
[23:00] <ikonia> mTeK: no, I don't think it will work
[23:00] <ikonia> it can technically work - but the risks are not acceptable
[23:00] <mTeK> Worse case I have to drive, If I have to drive it's not that big of a deal but sitting in my recliner is better than standing in the DC for about 15min.
[23:01] <ikonia> I disagree
[23:01] <ikonia> do a job properly
[23:01] <ikonia> but it's up to you
[23:02] <Mitchell92> Hello... I really need a software program to do both school note taking and personal journaling / journaling and planning for projects. Microsofts OneNote sort of did the job, but not enough. I like the thought of a wiki. What steps would be best to take to just install a wiki on this machine? I just bought a new notebook and am running ubuntu. I'm open to the web server (apache, ngix or whatever...) taking requests from others on the netwo
[23:02] <Mitchell92> rk, but of course, I really need it to be password protected, like to login even if just to read.
[23:02] <Mitchell92> Might anyone have any suggestions?
[23:02] <reisio> Mitchell92: few flat-file wikis you can use
[23:02] <ikonia> Mitchell92: would a basic text document be more effective
[23:03] <jonathan_zz> ikonia: I didn't see that question (even though I scrolled) but nevertheless, you are forcing opinions onto him.
[23:03] <ikonia> jonathan_zz: I'm not forcing anything on to him
[23:03] <ikonia> jonathan_zz: as I've said multiple time - you can disagree and do it
[23:03] <Mitchell92> A wiki would be best as I like to link certain note topics to others I've taken. I'm basically asking for what wiki would be recommended if I were to have a wiki for personal use... and if ubuntu (Desktop) has a quick easy install for what's needed, be it apache, mysql, php, and so on.
[23:04] <Mitchell92> I'm running on a nice little notebook with a dual core i5 processor and 4GB of RAM
[23:04] <jonathan_zz> ikonia: then don't be such an ass and just let the person be. You even go out of your way to command "do a job properly" when it is of no concern to you.
[23:04] <ikonia> jonathan_zz: please stop trying to create a problem
[23:04] <jonathan_zz> ikonia: You are a problem, sir.
[23:04] <ikonia> jonathan_zz: the guy asked for advice opinion, I gave it and said you can ignore it / make up your own mind
[23:05] <jonathan_zz> ikonia: you are basically harassing someone.
[23:05] <ikonia> jonathan_zz: re-read the conversation where I give pointers to the risks and problems and ask him to make his own mind up
[23:05] <jonathan_zz> well I don't care, but it's what you're doing.
[23:05] <ikonia> jonathan_zz: no I'm not, he's asking in public channel for advice
[23:05] <reisio> Mitchell92: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?PersonalWiki down at "don't need a server"
[23:05] <ikonia> jonathan_zz: if you don't care - please be quiet and stop trying to create an issue
[23:05] <jonathan_zz> of course you are
[23:05] <reisio> Mitchell92: and 'stand-alone' after that
[23:05] <jonathan_zz> and shut up yourself if you care so much about it.
[23:06] <briaperry> hello

[23:06] <EriC^^> hi
[23:06] <reisio> 'lo
[23:06] <ikonia> reisio: have you actually used any of the flat file wikis ?
[23:07] <reisio> ikonia: sure
[23:07] <reisio> ikonia: have you?
[23:07] <reisio> wheeee polls
[23:07] <ikonia> reisio: no, not at all
[23:07] <ikonia> (certainly not that I'm aware of)
[23:07] <reisio> they're like wikis... that use flat files
[23:07] <ikonia> reisio: is it really flat file - or something like (for example) sqlite
[23:08] <reisio> I imagine some of the "stand-alone" ones are using something sql-y
[23:08] <reisio> but most of the ones saying "flat file" are probably just use a text file
[23:08] <ikonia> I shall investigate your list
[23:08] <reisio> only tried one or two myself
[23:08] <reisio> seemed like a thing worth being able to o
[23:08] <reisio> to do*
[23:09] <reisio> although, I know HTML so it's not something I've personally bothered with yet
[23:09] <Mitchell92> I've never used flat file wikis. I'm a computer science student and have extreme interest in software development and I also do web design on the side as a small business, I'm familiar with MySQL. I have no problem installing everything and have a full blown wiki. I just don't want to sacrifice bootup speed or performance on this nice new notebook if I use apache, mysql, etc. on it... It's a dual core i5 with 4GB of RAM, although 8GB of Cru
[23:09] <Mitchell92> cial RAM is only $20 on amazon with prime shipping... I'll get the 8GB of RAM soon once I evaluate how soon I need it based on all I'm doing.
[23:09] <reisio> really just a directory structure and a markdown parser would do you if you didn't want to learn HTML, too
[23:09] <reisio> but hey there are wikis/apps for it, so :p
[23:10] <reisio> Mitchell92: you wouldn't sacrifice speed, but it'd remain immense overkill
[23:10] <reisio> to run a web server and relational db
[23:10] <reisio> for something a flat file would do just as well
[23:12] <Mitchell92> okay reisio . thanks

[23:48] <RoundDuckMan> WoodyPC: do you know how to uninstall compiled files if make uninstall doesn't work?
[23:49] <jedininjarob> autoclean?
[23:49] <WoodyPC> I used DVI-HDMI on my desktop and connected it to the TV HDMI. Sound don't work. Next I used an audio cable, put it in the tv "black" audio in and tried it in the computer audio out and headphones jack as well and still no sound. One more thing.
[23:50] <RoundDuckMan> From what I've seen I need to manually remove them, but how? https://paste.ubuntu.com/15750855/
[23:51] <WoodyPC> I also used the audio cable with red and white plugs on the tv and then plugged in the other end into the audio out and then the headphones on the desktop and still no sound.
[23:51] <WoodyPC> Can anyone help me figure this out???
[23:52] <jedininjarob> i had a similar issue
[23:52] <briaperry> testing again
[23:52] <RoundDuckMan> I'll go on /r/techsupport's irc then
[23:52] <WoodyPC> RoundDuckMan: I am still learning. I have no idea
[23:52] <jedininjarob> when going into the sound board (section for sound connections software)
[23:53] <jedininjarob> i relized that i needed to set the hdmi as a defualt connection.... sound was fina asfter
[23:53] <jedininjarob> from laptop to tv
[23:54] <WoodyPC> yeah mine doesn't give me the hdmi option.
