[00:00] <UserUS> sagik: if you see no core file, then i did not make one and your issue is with boot not post
[00:00] <the_count> gentii: I see
[00:00] <UserUS> perhaps you install a legacy kernel on a EUFI machine?
[00:00] <UserUS> installed*
[00:01] <the_count> gentii: Then how can adrian_1908 have it disabled?
[00:01] <genii> the_count: Something that used to work to streamline the boot process, was to add the boot option of: profile  ..one time to the kernel loading line. It would parallelize many of the things being loaded during boot, making subsequent boots faster. You may want to try this. although with systemd being used now, I'm not sure how much of a speedup you might see
[00:02] <sagik> UserUS: no, I just connected a mobile phone to a usb port
[00:02] <the_count> gentii: Ahh
[00:02] <sagik> and zbeng
[00:03] <genii> the_count: Also you may want to note that you have been sending messages to the name of someone named gentii and not to my username here of genii ;)
[00:04] <the_count> genii: Sorry about that
[00:04] <the_count> genii: I didn't notice somehow
[00:05] <sagik> :-<
[00:05] <UserUS> sagik: how could you
[00:05] <sagik> hehe
[00:05] <sagik> I just want to research the cause of it
[00:05] <UserUS> sagik: check the root filesystem too...there is a folder with dumps. starts with a V, don't remember the exact name
[00:06] <sagik> could be a critical vuln.
[00:06] <UserUS> It stores all dumps from the CPU
[00:06] <UserUS> and ram...lemme find it one sec
[00:06] <genii> the_count: I have to leave shortly. But as I said, you might want to try the boot option of "profile". an old but still relevant link on how to implement this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=254263
[00:06] <UserUS> sagik: cd / ... search for a core file, if none, cd var
[00:07] <UserUS> then, cd /var/crash
[00:07] <sagik> var/crash -> empty
[00:07] <the_count> genii: Thanks
[00:09] <UserUS> sagik: cd /proc
[00:09] <UserUS> sagik: then view the info for cpu, boot..etc
[00:09] <UserUS> cat "filename"
[00:09] <sagik> sudo find / -name "*.crash"
[00:09] <sagik> yield nada
[00:10] <TAFB> new ffmpeg uses WAY less cpu :) instead of 5.7% down to 0.3% to 0.5% :)
[00:10] <sagik> erm proc is a virtual fs, isn't it ?
[00:10] <dax> sagik: yes
[00:10] <sagik> i.e. no actualy files in it
[00:10] <dax> it exposes information from the kernel, it does not represent "real" files on a "real" disk
[00:11] <dax> same with /sys
[00:11] <sagik> s/actualy/actual
[00:11] <sagik> exactly

[00:11] <devLightning0> Hello, I have been having problems on my Macbook Pro 11.1 enabling the Wireless Drivers. I loaded bcmwl-kernel-source_6.30.223.141+bdcom-0ubuntu2_amd64 (1).deb to a flashdrive but was unable to install because of dependency issues.
[00:12] <UserUS> TAFB: O.o how can I check my version?
[00:12] <devLightning0> I was using Ubuntu 15.10
[00:12] <UserUS> TAFB: forget the command lol
[00:12] <TAFB> ffmpeg
[00:12] <TAFB> it'll say at the top
[00:14] <UserUS> sagik: Not sure then, I don't know where else dump files would be. You can use a program to search the ROM and RAM or HDD for where your computer stored them
[00:14] <UserUS> which, you already did, so idk mate lol any one else know?
[00:15] <TAFB> is /tmp always stored in real ram? is there a limit to how much you can store there?
[00:15] <UserUS> TADB: command not found
[00:15] <devLightning0> Hello, I have been having problems on my Macbook Pro 11.1 enabling the Wireless Drivers. I loaded bcmwl-kernel-source_6.30.223.141+bdcom-0ubuntu2_amd64 (1).deb to a flashdrive but was unable to install because of dependency issues.
[00:15] <UserUS> Yes, you're memory. Unless you set up to page the HDD
[00:15] <TAFB> nice :)
[00:15] <UserUS> devLightning0: is it mounted?
[00:16] <TAFB> i'll try using /tmp for my encoding and streaming, when I get a lot of uses streaming the HDD was getting too much i/o :(
[00:16] <Ben64> TAFB: pretty sure by default /tmp is not in ram
[00:16] <devLightning0> UserUS: Is what mounted?
[00:16] <UserUS> correct, the default ram is not. the tmp folder is just a folder
[00:17] <Ben64> UserUS: /dev/shm is ram
[00:17] <UserUS> yes, correct
[00:17] <UserUS> devLightning0: the fd lol
 Do you mean the flashDrive?
[00:17] <UserUS> yes
[00:18] <TAFB> can I run a speed test of /dev/shm?
[00:18] <devLightning0> Yes it is.
[00:18] <Ben64> TAFB: you can try
[00:18] <UserUS> devLightning0: Check the software center for proprietary software
[00:18] <devLightning0> I have acces to the .deb file but I can't install it.
[00:18] <UserUS> also, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[00:18] <TAFB> Ben64: how? :)
[00:18] <Ben64> TAFB: however you like
[00:19] <devLightning0> UserUs: How do I do that?
[00:19] <TAFB> Ben64: sudo hdparm -Tt /dev/shm :)
[00:20] <UserUS> devLightning0: go to the software center, open it, and the last tab checks for you
[00:20] <Ben64> TAFB: won't work but go for it
[00:20] <UserUS> to put in a command, open up terminal and enter the command I typed
[00:21] <TAFB> read() failed: Is a directory
[00:21] <UserUS> Also, go to the top right corner, click about this computer, and click get updates
[00:21] <devLightning0> UserUs: But I have no internet? it lists a dkms.deb file as a dependency but that file has another dependency .
[00:22] <TAFB> Ben64: Do you know how to use dd to test the write and read speed of the "directory"? :(
[00:22] <Ben64> devLightning0: use ethernet cable for now?
[00:22] <Ben64> TAFB: it's your ram, it's fast
[00:22] <UserUS> you need internet then
[00:22] <TAFB> it's a vps, I'm worried it's not
[00:23] <Ben64> ooh
[00:23] <devLightning0> UserUs: each time I have to reboot my machine and download the dependency but there seems to be a lot of them sequentially.
[00:23] <TAFB> dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/output bs=8k count=10k; rm -f /tmp/output
[00:23] <TAFB> where would I put the /dev/shm?
[00:23] <devLightning0> Ben64: no Ethernet cable...
[00:23] <Ben64> devLightning0: buy one for $0.50
[00:24] <devLightning0> Ben64: Apple translation --> $50
[00:25] <Ben64> devLightning0: you can use another computer to download packages
[00:25] <Ben64> !offline | devLightning0
[00:26] <deweydb> i wanted to my my server auto update (apt-get update && apt-get upgrade)
[00:26] <deweydb> so i installed cron-apt
[00:26] <deweydb> on the ubuntu help page it says "By default, cron-apt will execute automatically at 4am."
[00:26] <TAFB> Got it working: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/shm/output bs=8k count=10k; rm -f /dev/shm/output
[00:26] <TAFB> how do I tell it to test a bigger file?
[00:26] <deweydb> but after a few weeks, there were several updates that did not happen
[00:26] <TAFB> 84mb is what it's testing now
[00:26] <deweydb> until i did it manually.
[00:27] <deweydb> what am i overlooking?
[00:27] <devLightning0> ubottu: How would I do it from a mac online. How would I see all the dependencies and download them. load to usb and install them all at once.
[00:27] <Ben64> TAFB: change bs=8k to bs=1M and count to how many MB you want
[00:28] <Ben64> deweydb: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[00:28] <deweydb> so cron-apt fails silently if i'm not on the latest dist?
[00:28] <devLightning0> Ben64: UserUs: How would I do it from a mac online. How would I see all the dependencies and download them. load to usb and install them all at once.
[00:29] <TAFB> root@tafb:/dev/shm# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/shm/output bs=1M count=3k; rm -f /dev/shm/output
[00:29] <Ben64> deweydb: never used cron-apt, but you're missing certain updates by not doing a dist-upgrade
[00:29] <TAFB> 3072+0 records in, 3072+0 records out, 3221225472 bytes (3.2 GB) copied, 1.38398 s, 2.3 GB/s
[00:29] <TAFB> Ohhh, very fast, I like :D
[00:29] <Ben64> TAFB: yes, ram is fast
[00:29] <TAFB> okies, I'll use that folder for my encoding and see how it goes :)
[00:31] <adrian_1908> Ben64: would you recommend /dev/shm for general usage with consciously chosen temporary data, or is there some pitfall (aside from running out of memory)?
[00:33] <Ben64> adrian_1908: anything in there disappears if you reboot or lose power or whatever
[00:33] <deweydb> Ben64: figured it out
[00:33] <deweydb> cron-apt doesn't actually install things
[00:33] <deweydb> it just downloads the updates
[00:33] <Ben64> deweydb: ok, but you still need to do apt-get dist-upgrade regularly
[00:34] <deweydb> fair enough
[00:34] <deweydb> dist-upgrade would go from 14.04 -> 15.04 ?
[00:34] <hccx> rtl8192cu usb wifi still not working.
[00:34] <Ben64> deweydb: nope
[00:35] <deweydb> or is that something else
[00:35] <deweydb> oh
[00:35] <adrian_1908> Ben64: but other than that, it's designed to handle heavy workloads? I ask because I've been using /tmp as a tmpfs until now, because setting it to be a ramfs didn't play well with some Ubuntu features. I might switch to dumping temp data in /dev/shm if that works well.
[00:35] <Ben64> adrian_1908: tmpfs is ram, no difference from /dev/shm
[00:36] <adrian_1908> Ben64: But tmpfs needs to have its size defined when mounted and doesn't grow beyond that, does it?
[00:37] <Ben64> adrian_1908: correct
[00:39] <devLightning0> Ben64: can I use a Ethernet/Usb or does it have to be Ethernet/Thunderbolt. It's a $15 vs $30 decision.
[00:40] <TAFB> my vps says it has 7gb of ram total, 6.83gb free, but I can only create a 4gb file on /dev/shm?!?
[00:41] <Ben64> devLightning0: should be able to use usb
[00:41] <Ben64> TAFB: yeah its usually limited to around half the total ram
[00:42] <TAFB> Ben64: That should still be sufficient. Any way to unlock it more?
[00:43] <Ben64> TAFB: you'd probably have to make your own tmpfs mountpoint in fstab and specify the size
[00:43] <adrian_1908> ArchWiki: "By default, a tmpfs partition has its maximum size set to half your total RAM, but this can be customized. Note that the actual memory/swap consumption depends on how much you fill it up, as tmpfs partitions do not consume any memory until it is actually needed."  I forgot/wasn't aware that it doesn't consume its own capacity a-priori. I think I'll stick to using /tmp (as tmpfs)...
[00:43] <adrian_1908> ...then, and just make it bigger.
[00:45] <compdoc> whats the 16.04 channel?

[01:01] <lee_G750jm> hello all
[01:01] <rda> i run eval $(ssh-agent) and it says Agent pid 7253 then I run sudo ssh-add /root/.ssh/key and it says "Could not open a connection to your authentication agent."  Any ideas?
[01:09] <maddawg2> rda: it appears it was not able to open a connection to your authentication agent
[01:23] <Gallomimia> where else besides crypttab does the volume store its numerical designation?
[01:24] <Gallomimia> i tried changing the number from 127 to 0
[01:25] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: "numerical designation"?
[01:25] <Gallomimia> my luks container used to be called md0 but since i reinstalled the OS (it's on LVM) its changed itself to md127
[01:26] <Gallomimia> i'd quite like to fix it.
[01:27] <slappymcfry> crypttab is the place to set the mapping. it is not parsed again until reboot
[01:27] <Gallomimia> uh, the change i made was in crypttab, but obviously that's not the primary place. i'm a little noob to that
[01:28] <Gallomimia> yeah. but doesn't the crypttab get copied into initramfs?
[01:28] <slappymcfry> you have two device mappings. one for unlocking the luks, one for the LV
[01:29] <Gallomimia> not to mention the raid it all sits on
[01:29] <slappymcfry> that explains the md part, possibly look at your raid config
[01:30] <Gallomimia> so this message in today's updates:
[01:30] <Gallomimia> cryptsetup: WARNING: invalid line in /etc/crypttab for md127_crypt -
[01:30] <Gallomimia> is probably indicitive that upon reboot it won't ask me twice for the passphrase?
[01:32] <slappymcfry> insufficient data for meaningful answer. :) I'm not sure what your layout is.
[01:32] <Gallomimia> hm. do you know where raid setups are designated? mine seems to assemble itself without interaction
[01:33] <Gallomimia> uh, it's mdadm
[01:33] <Gallomimia> and for the brief period where i was booting from a usb key because this setup wouldn't do it, i had to do the mdadm -A manually. nothing complicated
[01:34] <Gallomimia> the setup is a raid5->luks->LVM. various LV's including root and home. /boot is a slice outside of all that
[01:36] <Gallomimia> found it in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf
[01:38] <Gallomimia> well. no more ideas that i have. i'm going to reboot and see what goes on
[01:50] <rda> i run eval $(ssh-agent) and it says Agent pid 7253 then I run sudo ssh-add /root/.ssh/key and it says "Could not open a connection to your authentication agent."  Any ideas on how to fix this?
[01:50] <draeath> Are intel HDA or ac'97 sound devices no longer present these days? Got a wily VM that doesn't appear to be loading any kernel modules for them, and I'm not seeing them in /lib/modules/4.2.0-35-generic/kernel/sound/ either (there's some modules, but they appear generic)
[01:51] <draeath> rda, when you run ssh-add as sudo it tries to add it to root's agent, not your own user.
[02:00] <rda> draeath, ok, if i run this as a user: ssh-add /root/.ssh/permakey  I see this: /root/.ssh/permakey: Permission denied  ifi run this as a user: sudo ssh-add /root/.ssh/key and see this: Could not open a connection to your authentication agent.
[02:00] <rda> draeath, ok, if i run this as a user: ssh-add /root/.ssh/permakey  I see this: /root/.ssh/permakey: Permission denied  ifi run this as a user: sudo ssh-add /root/.ssh/key and see this: Could not open a connection to your authentication agent.
[02:02] <draeath> rda, is there some reason you don't want to move the key to your user's ~/.ssh? Only root can access /root/.ssh/ (at least, SSH will yell if you try to open permissions). And, if you try to temporarily escalate with sudo, it's not going to work either because you're running as root when ssh-add executes but your agent is not.
[02:02] <draeath> So either wholly run the process as root, or move the key to your user and do it all in the user
[02:02] <draeath> SSH intentionally stops you doing what you're trying to do, because if it didn't this would allow users to use each other's keys
[02:02] <draeath> (which is a huge security issue)
[02:09] <ubuntu-mate> hello
[02:10] <teezy022> Hey there.
[02:14] <rda> thanks draeath
[02:17] <pezdispenser> Hi there I'm having extreme difficulty installing my wireless driver, can someone help?
[02:20] <draeath> rda, welcome. Hope that helped, and hope it helped you see why it wasn't working :)
[02:21] <RyeHal> 14.04
[02:22] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: what device is it?
[02:24] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: Can you provide a pid:vid from either lsusb or lspci?
[02:25] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  pid?  like just the output?
[02:25] <slappymcfry> productid:vendorid
[02:25] <slappymcfry> Which chipset/model is it?
[02:26] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15803616/
[02:27] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  I once had this working,  Installed backports, then some ath10k master,  but I followed some thread I cannot locate,
[02:28] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  I've tried to follow forums and such nothing is seeming to work
[02:28] <slappymcfry> can you show output of `lspci -nn`? the part [xxxx:xxxx]
[02:30] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  I posted a pastebin to you with the output prior
[02:30] <draeath> pezdispenser, for what it's worth I've had *tons* of issues in the past in several distros with those drivers
[02:30] <draeath> the code from the vendor is junk
[02:30] <draeath> (not that it helps you, but at least you have an idea why the process is so sucky!)
[02:30] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: that's not enough. we need the PID:VID so we can look at all possible modules
[02:31] <pezdispenser> dreadingly:   I got it working prior,  but  gahh
[02:31] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   forgive me what command shall I run for that output
[02:31] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: in order for us to help you, we need to know what device you are using. "Atheros" is not enough
[02:32] <slappymcfry> `lspci -nn`
[02:32] <draeath> pezdispenser, run that lspci again with the extra argument ^^
[02:32] <Monster2016> Hello :)
[02:32] <draeath> without, it just told us the bus IDs (which tells us where it's plugged in) and the human friendly name (which isn't actually all that helpful)
[02:34] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   my apologies,  here is the new output
[02:34] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   http://paste.ubuntu.com/15803654/
[02:35] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: thanks. what kernel are you running? `uname -r`
[02:36] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   4.2.0-35
[02:38] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: the kernel module is included since 4.4
[02:38] <slappymcfry> https://wikidevi.com/wiki/List_of_Wi-Fi_Device_IDs_in_Linux
[02:38] <slappymcfry> You could either update, or you could do use backports. I prefer updating
[02:39] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   thank you I understand what you are saying, at one point I had it working by using backports,   forgive me , how would I go about updating
[02:40] <slappymcfry> the problem with backports is you need to reapply them after each major update.
[02:41] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   yes, I fixed it once after updating, but I lost the atheros files I had,   how can I go about updating to 4.4 please
[02:42] <slappymcfry> which release of ubuntu are you using?
[02:42] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   using 15.10,
[02:43] <slappymcfry> You can follow this guide: http://linuxdaddy.com/blog/install-kernel-4-4-on-ubuntu/
[02:43] <slappymcfry> Consider trying 4.4.7 instead. Here are the filenames: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4.7-wily/
[02:44] <slappymcfry> If that does not work for you, you can try the backports as shown here http://askubuntu.com/a/708103/28071
[02:45] <Narwhaal> how can I change debian into ubuntu ?
[02:45] <Narwhaal> I want make debian 5 into ubuntu 16
[02:45] <slappymcfry> s/debian/ubuntu/
[02:46] <Narwhaal> no I mean debian
[02:46] <Jordan_U> Narwhaal: By backing up your files and installing Ubuntu normally. You can install Ubuntu while preserving /home/ (even when it's not on a separate partition) but you should make sure you have good backups anyway.
[02:46] <slappymcfry> Narwhaal: I don't think converting distros is a feasable task.
[02:46] <Narwhaal> but I want all program to work the same
[02:47] <Jordan_U> Narwhaal: That's impossible.
[02:47] <Narwhaal> no it's no
[02:47] <slappymcfry> Narwhaal: As Jordan_U explained. backup your configurations and copy them back across
[02:47] <Jordan_U> Narwhaal: Ubuntu is not Debian. Things work differently. If they didn't work differently then there would be no point in Ubuntu existing.
[02:47] <Narwhaal> I do it for centos to archlinux
[02:47] <Narwhaal> same program
[02:48] <Narwhaal> but I change to the OS for the live disk
[02:48] <slappymcfry> Narwhaal: I'd like to see how that's done, please
[02:48] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   I can follow forums quite well,  switching the filles from 4.4.6 to 4.4.7 i'm bound to screw up something, i think I may just stick with that guide you sent me for 4.4.6
[02:48] <Narwhaal> to backup on harddrive outside
[02:48] <Narwhaal> make list of install program and format with new OS
[02:48] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: it's the same guide. just different filenames
[02:48] <Narwhaal> then install program list and make program list of program can't install
[02:49] <Narwhaal> user configurate still same
[02:49] <Narwhaal> but debian ubuntu not work :(
[02:49] <Jordan_U> Narwhaal: You will likely have no trouble keeping your configuration files in your home directory the same, and you may be able to *selectively* copy *some* files from /etc/ to your Ubuntu installation, but if you try to copy them all things *will* break and we won't support you trying to unbreak it (we will just recommend re-installing).
[02:49] <Narwhaal> Jordan_U: nono
[02:49] <Narwhaal> u not understand
[02:50] <Narwhaal> take list of install program
[02:50] <Narwhaal> install similar program on new OS
[02:50] <Narwhaal> preserve configurate
[02:50] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   yeah... my brain just isn't making sense of it,
[02:50] <Narwhaal> (if possible)
[02:50] <slappymcfry> Narwhaal: yep, that's the way to do it
[02:50] <Narwhaal> so i do it right yes ?
[02:51] <slappymcfry> the key word is "new OS"
[02:51] <Narwhaal> yes
[02:51] <Narwhaal> obvious
[02:51] <Narwhaal> need format
[02:52] <Narwhaal> but problems it: debian not like working with for the live and harddrive together
[02:54] <virtuosoj> I'm having problems installing Spotify on 16.04. annyone done this successfully?

[02:54] <squinty> virtuosoj,  ubuntu+1 for 16.04 enquiries
[02:55] <virtuosoj> T_T
[02:57] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   i haz question
[02:59] <rda> draeath yes, got to keep my users aligned... also i just started from the beginning and generated a new key and that worked out
[03:00] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: shoot
[03:01] <cynicallemon> slappymcfry, dont encourage violence
[03:01] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  the tutorial ran smoothly  that you sent me  http://linuxdaddy.com/blog/install-kernel-4-4-on-ubuntu/   but there very last command had this output  http://paste.ubuntu.com/15803797/
[03:01] <slappymcfry> cynicallemon: I'm encouraging photography!
[03:01] <cynicallemon> :)
[03:01] <Gallomimia> dang. my reboot went completely awry
[03:02] <Gallomimia> mdadm: CREATE group disk not found
[03:02] <Gallomimia> alo, unknown partition table
[03:02] <Gallomimia> i don't like that. i can mount things when i boot from a usb key and access all the files
[03:02] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: why do you want to remove it? using backports instead?
[03:04] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  silly me,  I did not notice that command was optional,  was blindly following copy/paste,  haha  ,  so if I restart I should be running the newer kernal after?  thus wifi should work cause it's listed as supported?
[03:04] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: never copy/paste stuff blindly. understand every parameter/argument/option
[03:04] <Gallomimia> slappymcfry: that warning about my crypttab was an issue. i'm reading a forum post about someone with similar problems..
[03:05] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: it should be fine after restart. Regenerate grub just to be sure
[03:05] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  yes, understood.   oOo.... is there a simple command to regenerate grub?
[03:06] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: care to describe your layout? From what I gather you have RAID, LUKS and LVM setup. lots of room for errors
[03:06] <Gallomimia> yes indeed. i think i did before
[03:07] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: it's usually `grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg` but I can't remember if Ubuntu does it a bit differently
[03:07]  * slappymcfry hasn't been paying much attention
[03:07] <Gallomimia> it's 3 drives with 3 partitions each. the first has /boot and /boot/efi on its first two partitions, and the 3rd is for raid member. on top of the raid is the luks container, and that's used as the pv for LVM, which has root and home and several more
[03:09] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  yes thank you , command worked,  rebooting,  *crosses fingers*
[03:09] <Gallomimia> i'm working off this forum post now: http://askubuntu.com/questions/680122/cant-boot-mdadm-create-group-disk-not-found
[03:09] <Gallomimia> tho i did everything it says except the vgchange command
[03:10] <Gallomimia> the 5 mount --bind 's that are needed when doing a chroot are dev, sys, tmp, var, and run  right?
[03:12] <pezdispenser_> CANT REMEMBER NAME OF WHO I WAS TALKING TO
[03:13] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: sounds decent. that vgchange just activates th vg. Yeah, you need to bind mount those if you want to generate initramfs from inside chroot
[03:13] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: he's not here
[03:13] <eyearesee> hello
[03:13] <Gallomimia> it wasn't necessary
[03:13] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  lol,  yeah so newer kernal confirmed,  however wifi not working :(
[03:14] <Gallomimia> but i think it suggests changing the mdadm.conf to refer to a slightly different dev
[03:14] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: `lsmod | grep ath`?
[03:14] <eyearesee> I have recently tried to run Lubuntu 15.10 x64 on my laptop, but for some reason the wired network is failing.  ifconfig indicates large numbers for overruns -- any ideas?
[03:15] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15803879/
[03:15] <slappymcfry> eyearesee: try changing the MTU to something like 4000. I have a similar problem with an atheros card.
[03:15] <Gallomimia> and just today i was thinking i should shut down my system and quit playing games :P got my wish. i was also thinking hey this laptop isn't getting much use, wonder if it misses me? got that wish too
[03:16] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: that's good, it detects it and the module is loaded.
[03:16] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  okay, improvement,  But still wifi not popping up : /
[03:17] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: what happens when you `iw dev <dev> scan`?
[03:18] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  unsure how to run that command,
[03:19] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: in any terminal. Where <dev> is your device name.
[03:19] <teezy022> Does anyone know how to share desktops, concerning two people with Linux?
[03:19] <slappymcfry> teezy022: teamviewer is quick and easy
[03:19] <gambl0re> how do i set permissins so i can create directory
[03:20] <pezdispenser_> teezy022:  a program called teamviewer works great
[03:20] <teezy022> Sweet, thanks.
[03:20] <eyearesee> slappymcfry, that fixes it, thanks a lot! :)
[03:21] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: cool, it was probably soft locked, just needed that extra puch
[03:21] <slappymcfry> *push
[03:21] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  Not even sure which device it is, how do I list it?
[03:21] <slappymcfry> ip a
[03:23] <Gallomimia> slappymcfry: well. no luck there.
[03:24] <Gallomimia> gambl0re: to create a directory, you must have write permissions on the directory where you're making it
[03:24] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: crud...
[03:24] <Gallomimia> agreed. crud.
[03:25] <Gallomimia> uh, if i do an update-initramfs does it copy that initrd to the boot drive?
[03:25] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  since my kernal is upgraded,  module is showing,  how do I activate driver? or do I need to try and resinstall it now since I upgraded?
[03:25] <Gallomimia> oh. yeah it was on boot. i checked the time stamp
[03:25] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: reminds me of a time when I was experimenting with LVM cache volumes. I used a ramdisk for blazing speed. Until I rebooted.
[03:26] <Gallomimia> it actually went faster? i thought the kernel does auto caching in ram already
[03:26] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: the driver is automatically recognized upon boot. lsmod command confirmed that for us :)
[03:26] <dave0x6d> What's wrong with this PAM config? http://sprunge.us/WWFF
[03:26] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:   however,  my wireless is not working,  so what shall I do now : (
[03:26] <Gallomimia> my intent is to actually set up a cache volume for this setup. i was going to use dm-cache but LVM got the cache feature since i started with this setup
[03:27] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: I had 8GB of cache. It worked great. but I forgot it's volatile
[03:27] <Gallomimia> you need a mirror of the metadata?
[03:27] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: I thought `iw scan` showed results?
[03:28] <Gallomimia> it seems from the output on the screen during the (failed) boot, the raid assembles, but it isn't trying to open the luks container
[03:28] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: yeah, my entire LVM got corrupted as soon as I shutdown.
[03:28] <Gallomimia> ouch.
[03:28] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry: ,  I couldn't figure out the dev name for the wifi,   sorry
[03:28] <Gallomimia> did you recover it?
[03:29] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  iw dev <dev> scan     unsure how to figure out what to change this command to,  also sorry
[03:29] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: `ip a` shows devices and their addresses. Wireless will have a name similar to wlan0 or wlp3s0
[03:29] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: `iw dev wlan0 scan` for example
[03:30] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: I had LUKS running on top of it... no luck.
[03:30] <Gallomimia> lvm before the luks? yeah i heard of that. i don't like the concept
[03:30] <Gallomimia> you make me want to get some backups working
[03:31] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  ip a gives me http://paste.ubuntu.com/15803942/   : S
[03:31] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: agreed! I discovered syncthing. easy and simple.
[03:31] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  enps30  ?
[03:31] <Gallomimia> crypto seems very pointless without an encrypted backup
[03:31] <tsylvermane> Backups never a bad thing, even with a so-called bulletproof setup
[03:31] <Gallomimia> syncthing eh?
[03:31] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:   ahhh makes sense I think
[03:31] <Gallomimia> eh. i wouldn't call a raid5 a bulletproof setup.
[03:31] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: that's the ethernet. no wireless device = not good
[03:32] <Gallomimia> i dropped this system a couple months ago. had a scare about being able to recover the data
[03:32] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:     :/
[03:32] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: looking into it
[03:32] <Gallomimia> pezdispenser_: i wasn't following along. is your device on USB?
[03:32] <Gallomimia> did you guys find the device with lsusb or lspci?
[03:33] <pezdispenser_> Gallomimia:  my device is a built in card
[03:33] <Gallomimia> laptop?
[03:33] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  thank you very much
[03:33] <pezdispenser_> Gallomimia: yes laptop, aspire e 15,
[03:33] <Gallomimia> oh :(
[03:33] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: its a rather recent chipset only included in 4.4
[03:33] <Gallomimia> is that thing really old? or fairly new
[03:33] <Jordan_U> Narwhaal: I can't understand your last message at all.
[03:33] <Gallomimia> oh. well at least its included!
[03:34] <slappymcfry> Gallomimia: updated kernel. ath10k module is loaded. but device not listed in `ip`
[03:34] <Gallomimia> not good :(
[03:34] <Gallomimia> did a reboot yet?
[03:35] <pezdispenser_> Gallomimia: yes I did after updating kernal
[03:35] <pezdispenser_> Gallomimia:  I had it working before with backports, and some master ath10k file,  but I cannot seem to find the same forum boarrd I found those answers on
[03:35] <Gallomimia> that's somewhat annoying yes. difficult to say what to do next
[03:36] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: do you have a hardware kill switch?
[03:36] <slappymcfry> like Fn+F6 or something
[03:36] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  not as far as I know, no button turns wifi on or off
[03:36] <Gallomimia> oh. those are handy but tricky. i knew someone who had that switch bung out.
[03:37] <Gallomimia> alright well. i need to learn about the scripts that bring this system up
[03:37] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: do you mind posing the output of `modinfo -p ath10k_pci` and `modinfo -p ath10k_core`?
[03:37] <Gallomimia> cause i've been grating my teeth over its tendency to wait 2 minutes for network setup, which it doesn't get till it boots and configures a wifi dongle.
[03:39] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: oh, and also `rfkill list all`
[03:40] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  output http://paste.ubuntu.com/15803989/
[03:44] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: once more: `dmesg | grep ath10` tanks
[03:46] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15804001/
[03:46] <archonii> Hello.
[03:46] <archonii> My Libre Writer doesn't check my spelling.
[03:46] <archonii> Why is the spelling and grammar totally broken?
[03:46] <archonii> Any pointers?
[03:46] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: that's useful, join me on #ath10k
[03:47] <pezdispenser_> will do
[03:49] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: I would seriously consider trying kernel 4.4.7, it might have the fixes for this problem.
[03:49] <slappymcfry> I'll rewrite the commands for you
[03:49] <Narwhaal> Jordan_U: [04:52:06] <Narwhaal> but problems it: debian not like working with for the live and harddrive together
[03:49] <Narwhaal> that ?
[03:49] <archonii> How come my spellchecker won't work?
[03:50] <Narwhaal> basically he just said debian doesn't want to be converted using the live disk and the backups saved on the external harddrive
[03:50] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  I couldn't seem to switch out the file names in the tutorial,   they didn't match up
[03:51] <ch> no entiendo un carajooo
[03:51] <ch> alguien habla español aca??
[03:52] <archonii> Why won't my spellchecker work???
[03:52] <Jordan_U> Narwhaal: I still don't understand what you're trying to say or ask.
[03:52] <Jordan_U> !es | ch
[03:53] <ch> jajaja
[03:53] <ch>  gracias..
[03:53] <ch>  i say thath i don't understand nothingg..
[03:53] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: here you go. three commands http://hastebin.com/raw/viditodoza
[03:54] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  thank you, sorry i'm retaderd  haha
[03:55] <archonii> Why the heck won't the spelling and grammar work?
[03:55] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: it's alright. Desktop users shouldn't have to deal with this. Wireless compatibility is a hurdle for using Linux. Especially with newer hardware
[03:57] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  rebooting
[04:00] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry:  : /
[04:00] <Gallomimia> wait. is systemd present on ubuntu 14.04??
[04:00] <Gallomimia> cause that's what package updated before this all went awry
[04:01] <Gallomimia> archonii: what spelling and grammar?
[04:03] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry: still see no wireless device in ip a
[04:04] <pezdispenser__> : O
[04:05] <archonii> Gallomimia, In Libreoffice.
[04:05] <archonii> Libre Writer.
[04:05] <epicCane> When ever I run exe in ubuntu it wont work
[04:05] <cynicallemon> really
[04:06] <cynicallemon> wonder why?
[04:06] <epicCane> Because ubuntu is not up to date
[04:06] <tck9> if you want to extend a lvm partition, can you use fdisk to delete an existing partition and then re-create it with the additional space added? all the tutorials ive seen show creating a new separate partition and then adding extending that
[04:07] <phunyguy> Gallomimia: 14.04 uses various pieces of logind, which is part of systemd, but no systemd itself is not present.
[04:08] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: I had a disconect. any results?
[04:08] <memand> What is the name of the network manager that ubuntu uses (the one with the nice dropdown menu from system tray)?
[04:08] <slappymcfry> memand: nm-applet
[04:08] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry:  I noticed lol,  Nope,  kernal 4.4.7 I don't see any change running ip a
[04:09] <memand> slappymcfry: thanks
[04:09] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: can you do a `dmesg | grep ath10` again please. as well as a `ls /lib/firmware/ath10k`?
[04:10] <Gallomimia> phunyguy: well, i got some kind of update for some systemd stuff today. and now i can't seem to boot
[04:10] <memand> slappymcfry: Do you know if the part where it configs wifi AP's is an addon?
[04:11] <slappymcfry> memand: I don't know, to be honest. I don't believe NetworkManager does APs by default. maybe it is an addon that incorporates hostapd
[04:11] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15804309/    first command has no output
[04:12] <archonii> Why won't the damned Libre Writer check my spelling and grammar?
[04:12] <archonii> What's wrong?
[04:12] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: that could be a good sign. sorry, I also need `ls /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA9377`
[04:12] <Jordan_U> archonii: What happens if you try to spell check explicitly?
[04:13] <archonii> Jordan_U, Nothing.
[04:13] <archonii> It finds no errors.
[04:13] <archonii> Even when I made explicit errors.
[04:13] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: this is the driver it could not find earlier
[04:13] <Jordan_U> archonii: Do you possibly have no dictionaries installed?
[04:13] <Jordan_U> archonii: Does Gedit find spelling errors if you ask it to spell check?
[04:13] <archonii> Where to install those?
[04:14] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry:   yeah I should mention from an ath10k master file,   containing the QCA9377,    I put those other folders in there,  like hours ago cause I wasn't sure exactly which one it needed
[04:14] <archonii> Yes, it does.
[04:14] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry:  that's why there is like 5 different ones in there
[04:15] <archonii> I'm mostly interested in grammar check
[04:15] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: hmmm. these are the firmware files included in the new kernel.
[04:15] <archonii> else I could paste my document into Gedit to spellcheck it.
[04:15] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry: ls /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA9377   contains a folder called hw1.0
[04:15] <archonii> Jordan_U, Any ideas?
[04:15] <archonii> Gedit spellchecks but not Writer.
[04:16] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: and in that folder?
[04:17] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15804329/
[04:18] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: ah, we might need to rename that, but first. Do a `lspci -v` and check under Atheros for "Driver in use"
[04:20] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: it should say ath10k_pci... if it does. Run the following and reboot: `echo "options ath10k_core skip_otp=y" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath10k_core.conf`
[04:20] <pezdispenser__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15804350/
[04:21] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: could you try the above command anyways?
[04:22] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry:   no output upon entering that command
[04:22] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry:   actually it said this  options ath10k_core skip_otp=y
[04:23] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser__: cool. it just wrote those options to the file. try a reboot now
[04:23] <pezdispenser__> slappymcfry:  kk
[04:23] <bananaforscale> I'm using lubuntu currently because of its lightweight, but the desin didn't make me satisfied, is there another alternative ??
[04:24] <bananaforscale> *design
[04:24] <slappymcfry> bananaforscale: try xfce
[04:24] <Jordan_U> archonii: Do you have libreoffice-grammarcheck installed?
[04:25] <archonii> Jordan_U, How to tell?
[04:26] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry: back no wifi
[04:26] <archonii> How to check if the GRAMMARCHECK is installed?
[04:26] <Gallomimia> how odd. my raid assembles by itself when i boot from a live USB (server) but i stopped it with command line and now i can't seem to reassemble it
[04:27] <Gallomimia> meh. too tired. tomorrow
[04:29] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: alright. let's try `cd /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA9377/hw1.0/; mv firmware-5.bin_WLAN.TF.1.0-00267-1 firmware-5.bin` and reboot once again. if it works, we know it's a bug with the driver packaging
[04:30] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: you'll need sudo before the mv
[04:31] <networked> Could someone give me some autoconf pointers? I already have it working, but I have a few curious questions / things I'm not sure about.
[04:33] <Jordan_U> archonii: apt-cache policy libreoffice-grammarcheck
[04:33] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry: no cigar
[04:35] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: I can't believe it... something is screwy. `dmesg | grep ath10` must be spewing errors
[04:36] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  and I honestly installed the system like right before i came on here
[04:36] <Jordan_U> archonii: Or more appropriately, "apt-cache policy libreoffice-lightproof-en" .
[04:36] <archonii> Says none
[04:36] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  dmesg | grep ath10  gives no output whatsoever
[04:36] <archonii> How do I get it?
[04:36] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: try `modprobe ath10k_pci`
[04:37] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: the try the dmesg command again
[04:37] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  module not found
[04:37] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: ha
[04:38] <archonii> Now installing lightproof.
[04:38] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: what kernel are you running? uname -r
[04:38] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry: 4.4.7
[04:39] <archonii> So I installed LIGHTPROOF
[04:39] <archonii> and Writer still isn't checking my spelling.
[04:41] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: last resort: http://hastebin.com/raw/mopecovuqe
[04:41] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  what about backports?  it was once working on kernal 4.2 like that
[04:41] <slappymcfry> If that does not work. resort to backports. bookmark this post until the card works out of the box.
[04:41] <slappymcfry> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2300861&p=13387334#post13387334
[04:42] <slappymcfry> it might take a few months for ubuntu to catch up
[04:43] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser_: here is the official guide for the latest https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/ath10k/backports
[04:44] <pezdispenser_> slappymcfry:  unfortunately i did that earlier,  so,  really i dont know how I got it working before but I did,  for a month wireless has been working, BRB reboot
[04:45] <networked> no takers on an autotools question? >.>
[04:45] <archonii> I installed Lightproof
[04:45] <archonii> why isn't it working??
[04:47] <Jordan_U> archonii: Please pastebin the output of "dpkg -l | grep libreoffice" and I'll see what packages I have installed that you don't (if any). Spell check is working for me.
[04:47] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  hey uhhh
[04:47] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  I love you
[04:48] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: what happened?
[04:48] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  I'm online wireless,
[04:48] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: what was the magic needed?
[04:49] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  woOoOoO, thank you so much man,  this chatroom has helped me everytime during my experience on linux when I cannot find answers on forums cause of people like you
[04:49] <archonii> http://pastebin.com/4KKWZVq3
[04:50] <archonii> Jordan_U, Here you are.
[04:50] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   hmmm well I noticed that upon instalation ,  it immidiately rebooted without asking,    in which when I had it working through backports,  it did that too,  once i updated and it stopped working  and I just reinstalled it and it rebooted without prompt aswell so I suspected this would work
[04:50] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: you're most welcome, I wish it was easier. Another bookmark for you is https://github.com/ajaybhatia/Qualcomm-Atheros-QCA9377-Wifi-Linux As I said before, IN a few months it will probably work out of the box, since it is now included in the kernel
[04:50] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:  I grabbed a copy of that file before I put it in temp as well haha, just incase
[04:51] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry:   thanks man,  I am super appreciative of your efforts,   Now... I will be a zombie at work in the morning, but at least I resolved this, i didn't want to sleep until i did.
[04:53] <slappymcfry> pezdispenser: no problem! good luck with work tomorrow :)
[04:53] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry: ,  thanks, goodnight
[04:57] <Jordan_U> archonii: Nothing relevant seems missing from your list. I don't know where to look next.
[04:57] <archonii> Jordan_U, So why would the spell and grammar checks not work?
[04:58] <Jordan_U> archonii: I have no idea.
[05:01] <Space666> -hey how do I save Overscaling settings in ubbntu? I need toa reconfigure this every time I have to restart.. ._.
[05:09] <Maimster> Anyone running their OS via mSATA?

[05:13] <trevor_s> any secure boot or UEFI experts on?
[05:14] <trevor_s> when i dual boot ubuntu and linux... when i select windows in GRUB and i enter my bitlocker password... it says it needs recovery key because secure boot changed unexpectedly
[05:19] <Jordan_U> trevor_s: Do you have a TPM?
[05:21] <Jordan_U> trevor_s: Does it go any better if you select Windows directly from your boot firmware menus?
[05:21] <Jordan_U> trevor_s: Please take a picture of the exact error message and post it to http://imgur.com (and post the link here for us to see).
[05:26] <archonii> Jordan
[05:26] <archonii> no more ideas about getting the grammar working in my Writer? If not, any other programs with Grammar check I can use?
[05:26] <archonii> Is there a KDE writer?
[05:27] <archonii> Installing KWrite now.
[05:28] <trevor_s> Jordan_U, i did recovery password, entered windows and changed 'allow secure boot for integrity validation' to 'not configured'
[05:28] <trevor_s> i had it 'enabled'
[05:29] <trevor_s> in local GPO
[05:29] <archonii> Spellcheck doesn't work in KWRITE either.
[05:29] <archonii> Only GEDIT.
[05:29] <archonii> I'm using UBUNTU MATE 15.10.
[05:30] <archonii> The support here SUX.
[05:31] <davido> archonii I guess I missed the original question. What is your goal?
[05:31] <archonii> I need to get Spell Check and Grammar Check working.
[05:31] <archonii> In Libre Writer or anything else.
[05:31] <heston> hello,  I'm currently running 15.04 and I've been getting "system program problem detected" alerts for a while and now for the first time my system hard booted. How should I go about diagnosing the problem?
[05:31] <archonii> It works in GEDIT but GEDIT has no Grammar Check.
[05:31] <archonii> I'd prefer to get them working in Writer.
[05:31] <Jordan_U> heston: 15.04 is EOL you need to upgrade to 15.10.
[05:31] <hateball> archonii: Do you have the language-pack for your locale installed?
[05:32] <archonii> hateball, I believe so. How to check?
[05:32] <hateball> archonii: apt-get install language-pack-xx where xx is your language, eg language-pack-en
[05:33] <heston> Jordan_U, alright well that still doesnt explain why my system would hard boot
[05:34] <archonii> hateball, I just did that..
[05:34] <archonii> Still not working.
[05:34] <hateball> archonii: as for Libreoffice is uses hunspell, so check that you have for instance hunspell-en-us installed
[05:34] <archonii> That command is not found.
[05:35] <archonii> It says I already have the latest version
[05:35] <archonii> when I try to install it.
[05:35] <hateball> Hmmm
[05:35] <archonii> AHH
[05:35] <archonii> it's working now.
[05:36] <archonii> You know what the problem was?
[05:36] <hateball> Wrong document language?
[05:36] <archonii> I appear to have American language packs installed but my Writer was set to Canadian.
[05:36] <hateball> :)
[05:36] <hateball> There are Canadian language packs as well, if one is so inclined
[05:37] <archonii> just installed language-pack-ca
[05:37] <archonii> and hunspell-en-ca
[05:38] <archonii> Now my Writer is working like a champ.

[09:02] <lotuspsychje> pezet91: you could try few bios settings perhaps as a test
[09:03] <pezet91> i tried to configure bios, without results
[09:03] <lotuspsychje> pezet91: reset to minimal defaults also?
[09:03] <pezet91> yes, but I will try again

[09:54] <stqism> DiamondSword, Linux is just less power efficient in general

[09:55] <DiamondSword> stqism, I thought so, but not the same happened to me. I wonder why..
[09:55] <]Oscar> Hi, I'm trying to install 16.04 beta 2 on an SSD, but it crash with grub-uefi. It is impossible to close the error windows, so the crash report does not start, and there is no bash active... Can I help you with this in any way?
[09:55] <huwenfeng> any PAM module / auth service to divide the one password into two parts, and authen the two parts with different authenticatoin method, then give the result of TRUE if both are granted , and give False if any are denied.  The user have only one chance to input the password, so I need them to input two password together, then divide the password into two parts and auth them with different auth method.
[09:56] <Ben64> ]Oscar: #ubuntu+1 for 16.04 support until release
[09:56] <sandi> where are the system settings in mate 15.10 ?
[09:57] <DiamondSword> I dealed a lot to install nvidia driver for me, I did eventually but later on I read that Linux tries to use both Intel and Nvidia driver at the same time. I was able to select which gpu driver I want to use via nvidia-prime but while I was using Nvidia driver, the computer was at very high temperatures..
[09:57] <DiamondSword> I removed all nvidia things on my computer now. it uses Intel driver now, ok high temp is gone a little bit but the battery stil not lasts much..
[09:59] <DiamondSword> I see some recommendations on powertop, tlp handles them well, but again no gain for the battery. not much.
[09:59] <DiamondSword> might be I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 beta 2? (not a stable system)
[10:00] <Ben64> DiamondSword: then you should be asking your questions in #ubuntu+1
[10:00] <DiamondSword> hmh.

[10:27] <tabu> Hi all, I use ubuntu studio 14.04 lts, chrome is very slow and seems to slow down everything!
[10:30] <lotuspsychje> tabu: use chromium-browser for a more lightweight experience
[10:31] <pikapikachu> tabu: you may try w3m (browse websites in the terminal)
[10:31] <hateball> tabu: are you accessing pages with flash content, that will slow down anything
[10:32] <tabu> lotuspsychje, but my computer should be able to cope
[10:32] <pikapikachu> tabu: if the network speed is slow.
[10:33] <lotuspsychje> tabu: what kind of specs you have? ssd?
[10:34] <tabu> lotuspsychje, yes the system is on a ssd
[10:34] <lotuspsychje> tabu: you can do few tricks then, set browser cache to 0, swappiness to 10, install preload
[10:35] <lotuspsychje> tabu: also make sure its not flash related as hateball suggests
[10:36] <tabu> lotuspsychje, flash seems to work fine
[10:36] <lotuspsychje> tabu: system up to date to latest 14.04.4 also?
[10:36] <tabu> lotuspsychje, yes
[10:37] <tabu>  lotuspsychje  "browser cache to 0, swappiness to 10, install preload" where do this settings go?
[10:37] <lotuspsychje> tabu: you can also do a test, starting chrome from a terminal, see what kind of errors you get
[10:37] <lotuspsychje> !info preload | tabu sudo apt-get install preload
[10:38] <lotuspsychje> tabu: browser cache to 0 in settings for firefox, not sure where in chrome as i dont use it

[10:40] <fly_> merhabala
[10:40] <tabu> lotuspsychje, swapiness is at 10
[10:40] <tabu> lotuspsychje, overall on start up
[10:41] <lotuspsychje> tabu: so its not really a chrome issue then?
[10:41] <lotuspsychje> tabu: what kind of ssd brand?
[10:42] <tabu> lotuspsychje, for instance, I tried to acces gmail and my online bank on chrome while opening a document on openoffice and everything was very sluggish
[10:42] <lotuspsychje> tabu: right, doublecheck your graphics card driver loaded also, in additional drivers
[10:44] <amigoo89> hey guys, I am currently running an ubuntu VPS machine.

[11:03] <JethroTux> hi. I just upgraded to kernel 4.4.7 from ubuntu mainline. Unfortunately I get some errors while reinstalling ndiswrapper. Here is my /var/lib/dkms/ndiswrapper/1.59/build/make.log http://pastebin.com/27pnFcU5 . Can anybody help pls? thx
[11:05] <k1l> JethroTux: using ndiswrapper?
[11:06] <tabu> lotuspsychje, seems improved
[11:06] <k1l> JethroTux: but generally: file a bug against the mainlinekernels, then. they are mainline. they can be buggy.
[11:08] <JethroTux> k1l: Nop, I dont need it really. I just had it installed on older kernels, so I wanted to put it back in.
[11:08] <tabu> lotuspsychje, should I tweak preload.conf further?
[11:09] <lotuspsychje> tabu: no, preload is ready to use after a reboot
[11:09] <lotuspsychje> tabu: i would also suggest chromium-browser, the ubuntu variant of chrome
[11:09] <tabu> lotuspsychje, ok, thank you!
[11:10] <lotuspsychje> tabu: how many ram you have?
[11:12] <tabu> lotuspsychje, 16gb
[11:12] <lotuspsychje> tabu: plenty
[11:13] <tabu> lotuspsychje, is a new computer
[11:13] <lotuspsychje> tabu: weird unity gets sluggish on your specs..
[11:14] <tabu> lotuspsychje, I'm using ubuntu studio
[11:14] <tabu> lotuspsychje, xfce
[11:14] <lotuspsychje> tabu: right, even more lightweight..
[11:15] <tabu> lotuspsychje, yes, that's why it's fustrating!
[11:15] <k1l> tabu: start chrome from a terminal and see if there are errors
[11:15] <tabu> lotuspsychje, anyway, after installing preload I'd say is better
[11:15] <lotuspsychje> tabu: perhaps next week upgrade to 16.04 might also be a good idea
[11:15] <tabu> lotuspsychje, oh by the way I do get some errors
[11:16] <tabu> lotuspsychje, yes I'm eager!
[11:16] <lotuspsychje> tabu: share in a pastebin also

[11:25] <Jake1> It's trying to download flashplugin-installer
[11:26] <k1l> you restarted just? did you run anything then?
[11:26] <k1l> Jake1: dont kill updates. that will make a mess to your package-system. let it install
[11:26] <Jake1> It's been sat doing it for ages
[11:27] <Jake1> Just trying to download flashplugin-installer
[11:27] <lotuspsychje> tabu: you didnt manually partition on setup or so?

[11:29] <tabu> lotuspsychje, /home is on a hdd and the file system on a ssd
[11:29] <lotuspsychje> tabu: hmmz
[11:29] <k1l> look out for system issues.
[11:30] <lotuspsychje> tabu: is your ssd small?
[11:30] <tabu> lotuspsychje, 120gb
[11:31] <lotuspsychje> tabu: i would reinstall everything fresh on the 120, auto partition from ubuntu, use your hdd as normal storage
[11:31] <tabu> lotuspsychje, hdd as normal storage, you mean to put /home there?
[11:31] <Jake1> Okay, it stopped crapping itself
[11:31] <Jake1> ty bby's
[11:32] <lotuspsychje> tabu: no leave the /home on your ssd, then use your HDD as storage room
[11:33] <tabu> lotuspsychje, ok
[11:35] <tabu> k1l, lotuspsychje dmesg gives some errors and failed result indeed
[11:35] <tabu> k1l, lotuspsychje  blk_update_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector
[11:35] <k1l> tabu: "dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999"
[11:37] <tabu> k1l, http://termbin.com/jq2r
[11:38] <k1l> yeah, chrome is not your issue
[11:39] <sicsscam> k11 tabu , what are you guys working on
[11:39] <sicsscam> k1l,
[11:41] <tabu> sicsscam, I had very slow startup
[11:41] <k1l> tabu: imho you need to replace the hdd.
[11:42] <k1l> tabu: [sdb] Add. Sense: Unrecovered read error - auto reallocate failed
[11:42] <k1l> tabu: that disk got bad sectors and cant replace them anymore.
[11:42] <tabu> k1l, can it be a corrupted file somewhere there?
[11:43] <k1l> tabu: get a new drive.
[11:44] <tabu> k1l good grief!
[11:45] <sicsscam> hdd are cheap :)
[11:45] <sicsscam> data isn't
[11:47] <tabu> k1l, sicsscam thank you guys
[11:47] <hateball> tabu: all those memory errors at the top suggests you either have an old BIOS or faulty ram
[11:47] <hateball> So... I'd look for a BIOS update at least
[11:47] <tabu> hateball, ?
[11:47] <hateball> tabu: I looked at your pastebin
[11:57] <de-facto> how come i end up in #ubuntu-unregged although im logged in via sasl?
[11:58] <ikonia> probably joined because you're not authed at that time
[11:58] <ikonia> the fact that you're here now shows it's working
[11:58] <ikonia> maybe in the middle of a netsplit ?
[11:59] <de-facto> i was idling here before and somehow was thrown out here then ended up there
[11:59] <de-facto> weird netsplit this time
[12:00] <k1l> sasl doesnt work 100%. so its still possible to join unauthentificated. better ask in #freenode about issues with that
[12:26] <jimbotux> Hi guys, if i keep dist-upgrading the 16.04 beta will it just fall in line with the official release?
[12:26] <jimbotux> Or will i require a fresh install?
[12:26] <jimbotux> this is the server version
[12:27] <hateball> jimbotux: keep upgrading, that's fine
[12:27] <jimbotux> sweet thought so just wanted to double with people in the know!
[12:27] <jimbotux> cheers
[12:32] <scalper> hey
[12:32] <scalper> if an operation is pending in gparted, when is this operation about to start?
[12:32] <scalper> nevermind
[12:33] <A124> Hey, Q: How do I install Ubuntu via Static IPv4? Text mode.
[12:52] <trevor_s> anyone know why I can't compress a LUKS header backup file to .7z using nautilus?
[12:53] <trevor_s> but i can compress a regular document fine?
[12:53] <trevor_s> maybe because the owner is root
[12:54] <trevor_s> and the nautilus context menu compress doesn't use root privs?
[12:55] <plasmoduck> Guys please,,,,,,,
[12:55] <plasmoduck> I just formatted my external with gparted and repatitioned it
[12:55] <plasmoduck> Now I cannot write to it
[12:55] <plasmoduck> Permission denied
[12:55] <plasmoduck> WHat do I have to do to change the permission
[13:05] <plasmoduck> Hellloooooooooooooooooooo?
[13:05] <hateball> plasmoduck: do you have a ubuntu support question?
[13:06] <plasmoduck> Yes
[13:06] <hateball> plasmoduck: What filesystem did you put on the external device/partition?
[13:06] <plasmoduck> I just formatted my external drive with gparted and I cannot write to it now when it's mounted, why is it doing this?
[13:06] <plasmoduck> ext4
[13:08] <plasmoduck> hateball,
[13:09] <hateball> plasmoduck: Make sure you're the owner of the folder you're trying to access. You can change that using chown
[13:09] <hateball> plasmoduck: If you intend to move this disk to other machines/OS you might want to consider using ntfs or FAT32 instead, which doesnt have any permissions to consider
[13:10] <plasmoduck> hateball, even something as simple as creating a new empty folder on the drive failed
[13:10] <plasmoduck> I don't have write access to the drive
[13:11] <Guest31506> Any way to make Ubuntu switch between A2DP and headphone mode automatically?
[13:11] <TheFocus> aside from the conky channel does anyone have some good understanding about the little shits?
[13:12] <lotuspsychje> TheFocus: your question doesnt make much sense
[13:13] <k1l> TheFocus: specific question -> specific answer
[13:13] <hateball> plasmoduck: if it is blank, mount it as your user
[13:13] <plasmoduck> oKAY
[13:14] <bazhang> TheFocus, no cursnig here, check the ubuntuforums basic conky guide
[13:14] <[BNC]exnihilo> Hi there
[13:15] <[BNC]exnihilo> can anyone tell me please why this work ls | grep ^p.*n$ but this does not ls | grep ^p.+n$
[13:15] <bazhang> plasmoduck, is this ubuntu or debian, if so which version
[13:15] <[BNC]exnihilo> looking for python in /usr/bin
[13:16] <piglit> onderbroek
[13:16] <TheIdea> hi there I'm trying to copy files to my server but it sais no such file or directory
[13:16] <TheIdea> here is waht I'm using: scp -r /media/Somefolder/FolderToUpload USERNAME@serverIP -p 1341 : var/www/html/
[13:17] <lotuspsychje> piglit: can we help you?
[13:17] <k1l> TheIdea: missing leadin / from /var/www...
[13:17] <piglit> sory typed in the wrong window
[13:18] <TheIdea> still get the same error msg even with /
[13:18] <TheFocus> Have basically set this conky up:  http://trollpunny.deviantart.com/art/Conky-Rings-Revamped-591137228
[13:18] <k1l> TheIdea: if scp is too complicated you can use sftp from the ssh server. use the "connect to server" in nautilus
[13:18] <plasmoduck> bazhang, it happens on both
[13:18] <plasmoduck> 14.4
[13:18] <TheFocus> still a few problems to iron out...
[13:18] <TheFocus> Has anyone got it up and running?
[13:19] <TheIdea> I just need the command to work
[13:19] <TheIdea> it shouldn't be too complicated
[13:20] <hateball> TheIdea: does your user have write permissions to the folder in question
[13:20] <hateball> Most likely, by default, it does not
[13:20] <TheIdea> but wouldn't I get some other error msg then?
[13:21] <k1l> TheIdea: put your user into the www-data group on that server
[13:21] <hateball> TheIdea: Not when using scp to a remote host, no
[13:22] <TheIdea> ok thx I will
[13:23] <muchai> hay
[13:23] <muchai> :D
[13:28] <Mahioo> Welcome someone here know Wowza Engine Streaming software ?
[13:29] <TheIdea> damn server has no www-data group
[13:30] <k1l> TheIdea: so that not a ubuntu?
[13:30] <TheIdea> my client is ubuntu 15.10 server is debian 8
[13:31] <k1l> so better ask #debian how they handle their webserver installs
[13:31] <TheIdea> I will
[13:31] <TheIdea> but there is only one group my username
[13:31] <TheIdea> so i guess it's just not config.

[14:00] <Kapil> how to use ubuntu?
[14:01] <plasmoduck> fjg, Steam has worked for me for years,
[14:01] <mustmodify_> Kapil: ...
[14:02] <mustmodify_> but more generally, what is it you want? :P
[14:02] <hateball> fjg: It works, the launcher script complains about wrong version because it hasnt been updated to Xenial is all
[14:02] <hateball> fjg: and Xenial support is in #ubuntu+1 anyhows
[14:03] <Kapil> how to install vim ?
[14:04] <`z> Kapil: apt install vim
[14:04] <Kapil> thanks.!
[14:08] <Mement> Second day trying to install Ubuntu. Not doing anything special, basically a normal install where I create 3GB swap and 90GB ext4. Install went well, but at login screen I get this error http://pastebin.com/js6FQcis
[14:09] <lotuspsychje> Mement: ubuntu version? clean install or upgrade?
[14:10] <Mement> lotuspsychje: Clean, (alongside Windows tho)
[14:10] <lotuspsychje> Mement: ubuntu version?
[14:10] <Mement> The 14 one from WEbsite
[14:10] <Mement> 14.04 LTS :)
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> Mement: can you try the recoverymode/terminal/ sudo service lightdm restart
[14:12] <Mement> lotuspsychje: Ah, I also did something with the lightdm in it coming by. Let me try that.
[14:17] <Mement> lotuspsychje: I am sorry, I had to switch to laptop irc client, so I could restart my desktop. What was the lightdm command?
[14:17] <lotuspsychje> Mement: sudo service lightdm restart
[14:18] <Mement> lotuspsyhchje: stop: Unknown instance. I must be at the wrong area. I choose Ubuntu advanced (recovery mode) at startup and went in the root shell
[14:18] <yacc_> Any one here experienced with Bluetooth headsets and Ubuntu?
[14:19] <Mement> lotuspsychje: ^
[14:19] <lotuspsychje> Mement: hmm right lightdm hasnt started yet
[14:19] <lotuspsychje> Mement: can you reach until login screen?
[14:20] <Mement> Yes I can
[14:20] <lotuspsychje> Mement: perhaps go into ctrl alt f1 and sudo service lightdm restart
[14:20] <lotuspsychje> !bluetooth | yacc_
[14:21] <lotuspsychje> yacc_: blueman is also usefull when playing with bluetooth
[14:22] <yacc_> lotuspsychje, hmm, not very helpful => Ubuntu 10.04 kind of sounds odd in 2016 ;)
[14:22] <yacc_> lotuspsychje, anyway, it's not pairing and basic usage that's my problem.
[14:22] <yacc_> lotuspsychje, my problem is switching profiles.
[14:23] <yacc_> lotuspsychje, bluetooth headsets have a stereo (A2DP) and mono (HFP/HSP) profile.
[14:23] <yacc_> lotuspsychje, sadly the A2DP profile lacks support for the microphone, and HFP on the other hand sounds creepy when trying to play music, ..
[14:24] <stephenplatz> years ago I set-up an ubuntu one account with an email address that no longer exists - anyone know how to recover that?
[14:25] <stephenplatz> I've looked through a lot of docs
[14:25] <Mement> lotuspsychje: Did not work. After restart, terminal goes to login screen - I try to authenticate, and it only gives me black screen and returns to login screen again. No message.
[14:25] <yacc_> lotuspsychje, the dream solution would be something that automatically switches profiles (e.g. like Android phones), but something that is better than starting the audio settings, clicking on the headset and switching profile, ...
[14:26] <yacc_> lotuspsychje, that's not very useful when a call comes in, ...
[14:27] <lotuspsychje> Mement: not sure mate, perhaps try a recoverymode/fix broken packages if you cant get in anymore
[14:27] <alkisg> Mement: what is your issue? you can't login anymore? what happened and it broke logins?
[14:27] <Mement> lotuspsychje: Thanks tho. I will look a bit further. ;)
[14:27] <lotuspsychje> alkisg: econd day trying to install Ubuntu. Not doing anything special, basically a normal install where I create 3GB swap and 90GB ext4. Install went well, but at login screen I get this error http://pastebin.com/js6FQcis
[14:27] <Mement> Kinda frustrating, as Ubuntu was always easy to install on all machines - Now I want to step over on my own home desktop, and lots of failures
[14:28] <Abhish> ANybody have tips on how to get Ubuntu to play nice with btrfs?
[14:28] <lotuspsychje> Mement: got internet/updates/3rd party software enabled during setup
[14:28] <alkisg> lotuspsychje: are you talking about an issue of your own, or about Mement's issue?
[14:28] <lotuspsychje> !btrfs | Abhish
[14:28] <Mement> lotuspsychje: Yes I did have that enabled
[14:29] <lotuspsychje> alkisg: mement's issue scrollback for you
[14:29] <alkisg> Thanks
[14:29] <alkisg> Mement: so you never managed to login after the installation?
[14:29] <Mement> alkisg: Rarely, like once in the 6 boot attempts.
[14:30] <ioria> broken package ?
[14:30] <lotuspsychje> Mement: what kind of graphics card chipset and driver?
[14:30] <alkisg> And which ubuntu version? Plain Ubuntu 14.04 with Unity?
[14:30] <Mement> lotuspsychje: Geforce 750 GTX Ti
[14:30] <Mement> Stock driver, 354 I guess.
[14:31] <Mement> alkisg: Ubuntu 14.04, LTS one
[14:31] <Mement> My font in Ubuntu is also glitchting, like half of words are missing
[14:31] <lotuspsychje> Mement: did you try a nomodeset?
[14:31] <alkisg> Mement: one idea is to try 6 times until you login, then remove the proprietary driver to see if that's to blame
[14:32] <alkisg> And let it boot with the open source one, nouveau
[14:32] <lotuspsychje> good idea
[14:32] <EriC^^> why 6?
[14:32] <alkisg> Because he said that login rarely succeeds, once out of 6 times :D
[14:32] <v2528> anyone have FGLRX driver patched with 4.x kernel support?
[14:33] <EriC^^> alkisg: oh ok :D
[14:33] <Mement> Repair packages does not even work in Recovery Mode. It can not fetch from any of the site it is trying to reach.
[14:33] <Abhish> lotuspsychje: I've been using btrfs for years. Just not Ubuntu.
[14:34] <ioria> Mement, you have to enable networking
[14:34] <alkisg> Mement: why recovery mode? didn't you say you can login some times?
[14:35] <Mement> alkisg: It so rare, I might have been totally wrong with 6. I did so many restarts. I can login instantly tho when I exit recovery mode and choose to continue boot.
[14:35] <Some_Person> I'm trying to find some sort of command line driven way to take an Outlook message (.msg file) and convert it to some type of document (preferably pdf, but anything LibreOffice can open would do). Any ideas?
[14:35] <alkisg> Mement: well, do it that way; exit recovery mode and continue to boot (that is what enables nomodeset and doesn't allow nvidia driver to load)
[14:36] <alkisg> Mement: then, remove the proprietary nvidia driver from the menus
[14:36] <Mement> alkisg: Ah, now I understand nomodeset :) Cause I ca login all fine after continueing boot from recovery mode.
[14:37] <Mement> I do get system error detected when in nomodeset.
[14:37] <zerox> Hi.
[14:37] <zerox> Ubuntu 14.04, libenca-dev, libfribidi-dev, neither package has static lib files, only .so files, why?
[14:38] <alkisg> Mement: ok, try what i said and see if the proprietary driver is the problem
[14:38] <zerox> I want a static linking but these two libs failed to provide .a files.
[14:38] <Mement> alkisg: sudo apt-get purge nvidia-current ?
[14:39] <alkisg> Mement: no, do it from the system menus
[14:39] <alkisg> Don't use a terminal
[14:39] <alkisg> This way it'll also remove your generated xorg.conf etc
[14:41] <Mement> alkisg: I my Driver menu it shows; No proprietary drivers are in use. And in the field it says NVIDIA Corporation: Unknown, and the bullet with Nouveau display driver is in use
[14:42] <DoctorJellyface> hey
[14:42] <alkisg> Mement: so, the problem is with the nouveau driver, not the nvidia one, and it works with nomodeset :)
[14:42] <alkisg> Mement: if you want to make nomodeset a little more permanent (for now), you can run: sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
[14:42] <alkisg> And replace "quiet splash" there with "nomodeset"
[14:43] <DoctorJellyface> I once had an account on askubuntu with the launchpad openid but now I can't get to it. I would like to log in to merge it with my normal stackexchange account, but it keeps throwing a "no openid provider" error.
[14:43] <alkisg> If you find some update that fixes nouveau (e.g. xserver-xorg-lts-wily) then you can remove it
[14:43] <DoctorJellyface> anyone know what happened?
[14:43] <Mement> alkisg: In nomodeset, Nouveau is selected and everything works well. What driver gets loaded in normal mode?
[14:44] <DoctorJellyface> also my profile has all the information deleted from it, account name, profile pic, description and all
[14:44] <vanch> what is the proper way to configure dhclient to know about predictable network intarface names in US14.04?
[14:44] <vanch> anyone knows?
[14:44] <alkisg> Mement:  Nouveau with KMS is the normal one, I don't know if it also supports nomodeset or if vesa is used in that case
[14:45] <alkisg> (KMS is the "opposite" of nomodeset)
[14:45] <Mement> alkisg: And will sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc change a lot? I like to have a normal Ubuntu experience.
[14:45] <Mement> Not some hacky work-around
[14:45] <alkisg> Mement: it won't change anything, it will just put nomodeset there
[14:45] <alkisg> It's just using a different driver
[14:46] <alkisg> (slower one, but no changes)
[14:46] <Mement> Hm.. That means I am stuck with 1024x768 resolution for now.
[14:46] <alkisg> nomodeset gives you 1024x768?
[14:46] <Mement> I am in 1024x768 after continueing boot from recovery mode yes.
[14:47] <ioria> Mement after resume it always runs in low graphic mode
[14:47] <alkisg> Mement: you can also try to install a newer kernel and xorg, it helps with newer hardware: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[14:47] <alkisg> I.e. xserver-xorg-lts-wily
[14:47] <alkisg> Or check if you can install the binary driver from nvidia
[14:48] <abdolrahman> hi
[14:48] <macskay> clear
[14:49] <abdolrahman> Hi There!  Can you help me please?  I tried exactly what this link said to get JDK installed.   http://www.wikihow.com/Install-Oracle-Java-JDK-on-Ubuntu-Linux  but still when I type java -version I get this error:    bash: /usr/bin/java: No such file or directory  what should I do now?
[14:50] <Mement> alkisg: Followed some official document from Ubuntu, installing nvidia-352 as we speak. Thanks so far for helping, lets see how it will work out.
[14:50] <abdolrahman> anyone?
[14:50] <macskay> hi guys, i have a ubuntu 14.04 lts server and it takes a long time to respond to commands, such as up to 20 seconds when using "ls -al" for a small directory. Using "ls" only is done immediately. I tried rebooting but then my server didnt come back. It seemed an error in mounting the partition but checking the drive's smart values didnt show any faults. I rebooted in "recovery mode" and all commands are executed right away (even "ls -a
[14:51] <macskay> and using "chroot /mnt" the repsonse time goes back up again. What could that be
[14:51] <alkisg> macskay: press enter more often, your messages get cut in half because of irc limits
[14:52] <macskay> oh fair enough hang on
[14:52] <alkisg> When you have the issue, try `top` and `dmesg` to see any issues
[14:52] <macskay> hi guys, i have a ubuntu 14.04 lts server and it takes a long time to respond to commands, such as up to 20 seconds when using "ls -al" for a small directory.
[14:52] <macskay> Using "ls" only is done immediately. I tried rebooting but then my server didnt come back.
[14:52] <macskay> It seemed an error in mounting the partition but checking the drive's smart values didnt show any faults.
[14:52] <jeremie> hello!
[14:52] <macskay>  I rebooted in "recovery mode" and all commands are executed right away (even "ls -al")
[14:52] <macskay> when mounting the partition and using "chroot /mnt" the repsonse time goes back up again. What could that be?
[14:52] <abdolrahman> does anyone know how should jdk be installed ?
[14:53] <macskay> abdolrahman: i do it with sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk
[14:53] <Mement> alkisg: It worked! In nomodeset I did sudo apt-get install nvidia-352 (recommended one for me) and I can instaly login now with no weird glitches in font either.
[14:53] <alkisg> Mement: nice! :)
[14:54] <Mement> alkisg: I do get a System error tho, reporting the problem and I see it comes from /usr/bin/Xorg. But I can find that out later
[14:54] <abdolrahman> mscskay >> but I already have the jdk1.7.0_45 on my system ..  I am trying to install that! but :(
[14:54] <lotuspsychje> !cookie | alkisg
[14:54] <alkisg> Haha
[14:55] <macskay> abdolrahman: Hm I always used the apt-get versuion. you can easily just use sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk as well and change your java with java --update-alternatives or sth like that.
[14:55]  * alkisg would have been 1 ton by now if he had one cookie for each person he ever helped :D
[14:55] <lotuspsychje> alkisg: im wondering, how come the 352 doesnt show for his card, when best driver for his card?
[14:55] <Mement> !cookie | lotuspsychje
[14:55] <alkisg> Maybe the 14.04 xorg stack wasn't updated to show it
[14:55] <Mement> Do not feel left out mate, haha, you helped aswell!
[14:55] <alkisg> *jockey package
[14:56] <macskay> anyone got an idea on the response time issue?
[14:56] <abdolrahman> mscskay >>  actually my problem is from update-alternatives   it is not working ...
[14:56] <macskay> what does java -version say?
[14:56] <abdolrahman> when I type java -version I get this error:

[14:56] <lotuspsychje> macskay: perhaps the #ubuntu-server guys know more of this?
[14:56] <alkisg> macskay:  (05:52:08 μμ) alkisg: When you have the issue, try `top` and `dmesg` to see any issues
[14:56] <saeed> hello
[14:56] <macskay> oh sorry alkisg, didnt see that
[14:57] <saeed> how can i put ~/.composer/vendor/bin in my ?PATH
[14:57] <saeed> how can i put ~/.composer/vendor/bin in my PATH?
[14:57] <alkisg> saeed: one way: ln -s ~/.composer/vendor/bin ~/bin then logout/login
[14:58] <saeed> alkisg, with sudo?
[14:58] <abdolrahman> macskay >> when I type java -version I get this error:
[14:58] <abdolrahman> bash: /usr/bin/java: No such file or directory
[14:58] <alkisg> ~/bin automatically gets in the path if it exists, so that's a trick to put that other folder instead. No, without sudo.
[14:59] <saeed> alkisg, drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Mar 11 17:16 /home/mohammad/.composer
[15:00] <alkisg> saeed: it's one ln command, you don't need to run ls
[15:01] <saeed> alkisg, i know i mean dont i get problem for permision?
[15:01] <mofi4> hello everyone, could you please help me know on which ubuntu version this launcher is? never saw it before
[15:01] <mofi4> http://is.gd/MRRweW
[15:01] <alkisg> saeed: are you running the program with sudo? if so, why?
[15:01] <macskay> alkisg: Nithing happening in "top" or "dmesg"
[15:02] <abdolrahman> Can I use openjdk to write java programs via eclipse?   or I have to use oracle jdk?
[15:02] <lotuspsychje> mofi4: looks like an icon theme
[15:02] <saeed> alkisg, yes i run with sudo but i dont know why ?
[15:02] <alkisg> macskay: if you see disk delays and `top` and `dmesg` don't have a clue, then it's harder than I can help with in irc. Maybe someone else has some idea.
[15:02] <`z> abdolrahman: You can use OpenJDK, of course.
[15:02] <mofi4> lotuspsychje, ah, so it is not original ubuntu
[15:03] <lotuspsychje> mofi4: checkout ubuntu icon themes on deviantart.com, im sure youl find them
[15:03] <bonsairoot> alkisg, icon theme. looks like menda circle icons but i have no idea if it's that
[15:03] <macskay> i'll check out #ubuntu-server
[15:03] <`z> ... But OpenJDK might have UI/responsiveness issues from time to time.
[15:03] <alkisg> bonsairoot: I've no idea what you're talking about
[15:03] <bonsairoot> err ^mofi4
[15:03] <alkisg> :)
[15:03] <abdolrahman> Thank you!
[15:03] <alkisg> saeed: try to find instructions on how to install and run the program you want, you shouldn't have to go to such trouble
[15:03] <mofi4> ah, thank you bonsairoot
[15:04] <abdolrahman> 'z >>  can you help me get this oracle jdk installed then??
[15:04] <alkisg> saeed: I think you're following very broken instructions now
[15:04] <abdolrahman> please!
[15:04] <saeed> alkisg,  ive installed composer with root i think
[15:04] <saeed> i was in wrong way i think
[15:05] <`z> abdolrahman: You can follow http://askubuntu.com/questions/56104/how-can-i-install-sun-oracles-proprietary-java-jdk-6-7-8-or-jre
[15:05] <`z> But before continuing, I strongly suggest giving OpenJDK a try. It will probably work just fine for you.
[15:06] <abdolrahman> 'z >> I did !   but still when I type java -version I get this error:
[15:06] <abdolrahman> bash: /usr/bin/java: No such file or directory
[15:06] <`z> abdolrahman: Try sudo apt install default-jdk ?
[15:07] <alkisg> saeed: right, so either remove it and install it as a user, or globally with sudo, but then in /usr/local, not in your own folder
[15:10] <ux2> garshol: hi
[15:13] <abdolrahman> 'z I just finished installing default-jdk
[15:13] <abdolrahman> still nothing!
[15:15] <abdolrahman> default-jdk is already the newest version.
[15:15] <abdolrahman> what now?
[15:16] <abdolrahman> I hate freaking java :(
[15:20] <`z> abdolrahman: Try "sudo update-alternatives --auto java"?
[15:20] <`z> That looks like some symlink issue.
[15:21] <abdolrahman> 'z thank you so much .. it solved the problem
[15:21] <abdolrahman> thumbs up!
[15:21] <`z> You are welcome!

[15:33] <bonsairoot> I wrote a desktop entry for the new browser 'brave'. Anybody knows how i can get it to open multiple windows? For example in the firefox desktop entry there's a separate option with: Exec=firefox -new-window. This doesn't work for brave.
[15:33] <moriarty_> thx bazhang, but i search for a specific graphical developer tool for making windows with database sheets just like windev...
[15:33] <bazhang> !info brave
[15:33] <bazhang> bonsairoot, wheres this brave from
[15:34] <pistolpete> !info brave
[15:34] <bazhang> try equivalents.to  moriarty_
[15:35] <bonsairoot> bazhang, From their site: brave.com You have to download a tar.bz2 and install that way
[15:35] <bazhang> it's a website moriarty_
[15:36] <bazhang> bonsairoot, where is their guide/how to or faq
[15:38] <bonsairoot> bazhang, it's in beta still. I just unpacked and created a link to the binary and then a desktop entry. I just saw that they have a github repo as well.
[15:39] <dtoebe> Hey guys, is there a way to supress the SHA1 warnings in the new APT?
[15:41] <saeed> alkisg, hi
[15:41] <ikonia> dtoebe: if they are complaining doesn't that mean there is a problem with the checking of that file
[15:41] <saeed> alkisg, i found directory
[15:42] <saeed> alkisg, do you mean login to terminal ?
[15:42] <moriarty_> bazhang, i can't access to this site and if i type to google this: equivalents to windev linux it gives me just french pages...
[15:42] <saeed> how can i put ~/.composer/vendor/bin directory  in my PATH?
[15:43] <ikonia> saeed: PATH=$PATH:~/.composer/vendor/bin
[15:43] <hutchy> Hi all, I am finding that my Ubuntu server which is only running a WordPress site stops the mysql service frequently. Has anyone run into this issue before ?
[15:44] <ikonia> hutchy: what do the logs say
[15:44] <dtoebe> ikonia, the warning is: <Repo URL> Signature by key <Key String> uses weak digest algorithm (SHA1)
[15:44] <bonsairoot> what the hell
[15:44] <ikonia> dtoebe: that should go as the repo's update and sync
[15:44] <saeed> ikonia, when i close terminal it disapear
[15:45] <ikonia> saeed: put it in your bashrc
[15:45] <saeed> ikonia, how?
[15:45] <dtoebe> ikonia, But no way to suress it?... Not important just curious
[15:45] <ikonia> saeed: it's a text file, just open it up, .bashrc
[15:45] <hutchy> @ikonia would that be in /var/log/mysql/mysql.log
[15:45] <ikonia> hutchy: thats a good starting point
[15:45] <ikonia> dtoebe: not that I know
[15:45] <dtoebe> ikonia, Thanks
[15:46] <saeed> ikonia, i see text file now what should i do ?
[15:46] <abdolrahman> can I delete what I have messed with update-alternatives --install?    I wanna make a java_home for my openjdk
[15:46] <saeed> ikonia, do i write PATH=$PATH:~/.composer/vendor/bin there in text file?
[15:46] <ikonia> saeed: that will work
[15:47] <bonsairoot> you can also just export it
[15:47] <saeed> bonsairoot, how?
[15:47] <saeed> ikonia, i did it but doesnt work in terminal
[15:48] <ikonia> saeed: what ?
[15:48] <abdolrahman> i don't know the path to the openjdk .. to export it
[15:48] <saeed> ikonia, i see command not found now
[15:48] <virtuosoj> just 8 more days until I don't have to use ubuntu+1 to discuss my favorite verson of ubuntu >:)
[15:48] <saeed> ikonia, solved
[15:48] <ikonia> saeed: what is the exact command you are using
[15:48] <saeed> thatnks
[15:49] <saeed> i must opem and close terminal
[15:49] <saeed> solved thanks
[15:49] <bonsairoot> saeed, export PATH=$PATH:~/.composer/vendor/bin
[15:49] <saeed> bonsairoot, i wrote to bashrc

[15:50] <hutchy> @ikonia I have the following in error.log in that directory: [ERROR] /usr/sbin/mysqld: Table ‘./my_database/wp_options' is marked as crashed and should be repaired”
[15:50] <hutchy> Any ideas as far as a potential cause of this ?
[15:50] <hypergrove> hi, need to install apache 2.4.19+ ....  it looks like 2.4.20 was just released. At two mirror sites I checked, I don't see 2.4.20 binaries to download (or any other version, actually)...
[15:51] <hypergrove> anyone know about an apt backport available for ubuntu?
[15:51] <nacc> hypergrove: do you want a supported version?
[15:51] <nacc> hypergrove: supported by ubuntu, i mean
[15:51] <bonsairoot> saeed, also next time: you don't have to close and open terminal again you can just source the bashrc
[15:51] <hypergrove> nacc, just trying to use Match directives!
[15:52] <Guest32569> hypergrove: should have been released: https://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi#apache24
[15:52] <hypergrove> asf doesnt support of course
[15:52] <hypergrove> guest, yeah that's what i'm looking at too
[15:52] <Aldrion> Hi, Im novice to Ubuntu trying to setup a simple tomcat server. Ive installed admin/manager package, added a manager-gui user and restarted but still the manager app is not accessable .. can anyone help?
[15:53] <nacc> hypergrove: that didn't really answer my question -- ubuntu only has 2.4.18 in the archive; you'd have to build from source if you really require it?
[15:53] <hypergrove> nacc, it'd be nice to find at least some ubuntu/apt build instructions
[15:53] <nacc> hypergrove: so you want to build your own ubuntu package?
[15:54] <hypergrove> bummer for me is that i'd like to use 2.4.19+
[15:54] <abdolrahman> guys I have installed openjdk after a failed attempt to install oracle jdk ,,, now I when i run .sh files I get a relative error that I have messed with the update-alternatives ... can you help me please?
[15:54] <hypergrove> if there were 2.4.19 in the archive, that'd rock
[15:55] <nacc> hypergrove: there is not, though -- and xenial is close to final freeze
[15:56] <abdolrahman> here is the error:    /usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_45/bin/java: not found
[15:56] <hypergrove> nacc, that's too bad, because apache's 2.4 dox now have lots of .19+ syntax, so xenial seems out of step with it
[15:57] <hypergrove> but that's just an opinion, sorry
[15:57] <nacc> hypergrove: it's pretty normal for distributions to not ship the latest versions of things; i'm guessing someone probably has more recent builds in a PPA, or you could do that
[15:57] <nacc> but then it's a PPA and not really supported, to be clear
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> !latest | hypergrove
[15:57] <hypergrove> a ppa works for me
[15:58] <hypergrove> ubottu, oops, regretted saying that 8o
[15:59] <virtuosoj> !backports
[16:00] <hypergrove> Sadly I'm not conversant yet with ppa's, only master of apt-get -- have used it once before, worked out, so unafraid to go again (putting it on a different port is my hope)

[16:04] <Aldrion> Hi, Im novice to Ubuntu trying to setup a simple tomcat server. Ive installed admin/manager package, added a manager-gui user and restarted but still the manager app is not accessable .. can anyone help?
[16:04] <Aldrion> Browser keeps repeatedly asking for username/password nothing happens
[16:07] <hypergrove> nacc, i get ppa's now, and checked https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=apache+2.4 -- you're right, 2.4.18 is the latest out that, durn.  So I'd like to find some make instructions specific to ubuntu (because apache has debian specific defaults) -- maybe throw a link or two at me that will help me along
[16:12] <hypergrove> i need to install 'suricata' to get my own ppa repository setup?
[16:15] <hggdh> hypergrove: suricata is not needed if you want to create your own PPA
[16:18] <nacc> hypergrove: just create a launchpad account and you can create PPAs, iirc
[16:19] <nacc> hypergrove: so the easiest thing for you to do, probably, is to just grab the debian version in unstable (4.2.20) and put it in your ppa

[16:29] <designbybeck_> in a CLI, what is the "n" in "ip n"
[16:29] <designbybeck_> I'm not finding it in the man pages
[16:29] <nacc> hypergrove: ack
[16:30] <nacc> designbybeck_: sorry, can you ask your question again? the second parameter to `ip` is usually the object you want to act on, or an option?
[16:30] <designbybeck_> nacc: ip r shows in the man page that it resolves your ip
[16:31] <designbybeck_> nacc: but I don't see what ip n does
[16:31] <designbybeck_> the man page doesn't say what "ip n" does nacc
[16:32] <k1l_> is it the short for "ip neighbour"?
[16:32] <nacc> designbybeck_: i've never seen that particular parameter before :)
[16:32] <nacc> k1l_: it does appear to be so
[16:32] <designbybeck_> not sure k1l_ ..I'm trying to read over some of my notes I heard/saw on asome training videos
[16:32] <k1l_> i mean, what is the output of "ip n"
[16:32] <nacc> k1l_: ack, confirmed
[16:33] <nacc> designbybeck_: so `ip n` is an alias for `ip neighbor` and `ip r` is an alias for `ip route`
[16:33] <designbybeck_> yeah k1l_ it shows 3 addresses 2 stale one reachable... I just don't know what that means
[16:33] <hendIBT> www.backtrack-linux.org/

[17:03] <pulsar12> i have an issue with pppd connections. The PAM authentication process is very slow on auth, session, accnt. I see that the reason is that pppd send queries to dns asking for domain "ppp0", which is strange. I dont find reason for this to happen
[17:04] <Terminator> hello all
[17:04] <geezu> is there a recommended terminal for ubuntu on windows? I'd like to disable scroll bar, and have transparency
[17:05] <dontknow> could someone explain to me what snappy is
[17:05] <alkisg> geezu: the default gnome-terminal does have the settings you ask
[17:05] <alkisg> Just go to its options
[17:05] <geezu> alkisg: do they have gnome-terminal for windows?
[17:05] <alkisg> Ah, sorry, on windows?!!!
[17:05] <geezu> haha
[17:05] <Terminator> i created my own ubuntu repo using apt-mirror and i am running daily cron to update my mirror... now i want to revert my repo to 3days back... any idea how to do it???
[17:06] <alkisg> geezu: I don't even understand what "ubuntu terminal for windows" is
[17:06] <alkisg> I can understand putty, but not "ubuntu terminal"
[17:06] <geezu> it's like wine but reversed
[17:06] <alkisg> You mean the new "ubuntu on windows" stuff? Doesn't that assume the default windows terminal?
[17:07] <geezu> it does assume that, but you can run any terminal you like, just like on linux
[17:07] <geezu> i'm just trying to find something like gnome-terminal for windows. #windows wasn't a big help
[17:07] <dontknow> i saw that people running gnu/linux apps on windows 10
[17:07] <alkisg> geezu, but not graphical then, so no transparency etc, right?
[17:07] <ikonia> geezu: thats not this channel then
[17:07] <alkisg> geezu: are you planning to run xorg?
[17:07] <ikonia> geezu: ##windows is your best bet
[17:08] <geezu> well the terminal will run on windows normal
[17:08] <Myrtti> !ubuwin
[17:08] <alkisg> Then it won't be related to the usual ubuntu terminals at all, it will be  a windows application... if you're not planning to run xorg
[17:08] <Guest37047> how can i grant a permission to a folder and all its subdirectories?
[17:09] <Terminator> alkisg: ikonia: any idea ^^
[17:09] <Bashing-om> geezu: See: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2318965&page=6 .
[17:09] <geezu> thanks
[17:10] <alkisg> Terminator: I've never used apt-mirror, only reprepro etc
[17:10] <dontknow> Guest37047, i guess it was like "chown -R user:user"
[17:10] <squinty> dontknow,  type in a terminal the following command   apt show snappy

[17:11] <dontknow> squinty, lol it says video player. i was intent to packaging system
[17:12] <geezu>  /close
[17:12] <Guest37047> dontknow, you mean chown user:user ~/.composer ?
[17:12] <dontknow> Guest37047, no
[17:13] <Terminator> alkisg: how to do that using reprepro?
[17:13] <alkisg> Terminator: no idea, it's a method to have your own repository, not to mirror other repositories and have the option to revert x days back etc. I was just mentioning that I don't know apt-mirror.
[17:14] <dontknow> Guest37047, didn't you say a directory. what is ~/.composer

[17:45] <Loshki> rsv: if you run x11vnc on your desktop, you should be able to use vnc to view it remotely. Depending on your version of Ubuntu, you should find other remote solutions (e.g. vinagre, nomachine, rdesktop).
[17:45] <rsv> Loshki: can i configure all that from remote pc if i have ssh access
[17:48] <Loshki> Not sure about the others, but you can definitely ssh into the server and start x11vnc, then go back and connect to it using vnc from your client...
[17:49] <maarhart> where is sources.list (vivid)?

[17:56] <Raisa> hello. i tried installing python from source on ubuntu 14.04. https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.7/README  I did a ./configure, make, make install. After that I couldn't access my terminal and the software center. Today, I can't access the tab at the left corner of the screen. I'd really appreciate any help please on how to fix it
[17:56] <Raisa> i forgot python comes already with ubuntu
[17:58] <jgcampbell300> anyone know how i could use  calc to extract data from a http://url.com XPATH and put it in a cell in cacl like A1
[18:03] <maarhart> exit
[18:03] <Mrwappie> Good evening
[18:03] <rsv> hi
[18:03] <jgcampbell300> hi
[18:04] <yoga2016> hi
[18:04] <mgrover> Does anyone know how to verify the functionality of a WiFi card through a liveUSB session? Obviously, it isn't being detected by the OS...so I'd like to confirm if it's a hardware fault. Are there any terminal commands that will definitively prove this?
[18:05] <jgcampbell300> mgrover: usb ?
[18:05] <ArtificerChris> lsusb will let you see if the device is attached to the bus.
[18:06] <slaffe> Vapez tried plex but didnt like that :<
[18:06] <jgcampbell300> or maybe lspci if its internal
[18:06] <slaffe> gg Bellator
[18:06] <ArtificerChris> Fair point.
[18:07] <jgcampbell300> maybe ifconfig see if its even showing up
[18:07]  * Bellator giggles at slaffe 
[18:07] <mgrover> jgcampbell300 - Didn't get you. Could you elaborate? The WiFi card is connected via PCI I think.. It's on a laptop
[18:07] <mgrover> Sorry...read your statements now.
[18:07] <mgrover> I'll check with lspci
[18:08] <mgrover> But if it recognises _some_device on lscpi, does that imply that the hardware's working fine?
[18:08] <jgcampbell300> mgrover: hmm main issue i usualy run into on notebook is the card is turned off ... switch or fn+some fnumber
[18:08] <jgcampbell300> mgrover: sorry not an expert ... just some of the things i have had to try
[18:09] <mgrover> jgcampbell300 - Yeah, but those hotekeys need to be enabled.. and I think that might be OS dependent? It came with Windows out of the box, so the Fn+__ key may not turn on the WiFi card. I'll check at any rate. Thanks
[18:09] <WhiskyTangoFoxtr> support request for Ubuntu 14.04 - I do not get a create torrent option anywhere (transmission, qbitorrent, deluge). Is it because some option I need to turn on?
[18:10] <ArtificerChris> The FN shortcuts are usually interceppted by the hardware for things like that, though some of them can trigger ACPI events (like dimming the screen, sleep, etc.)
[18:10] <jgcampbell300> mgrover: if im not mistaken I bleave the fn+fX is a cmos deal ... but i could be rwong
[18:11] <mgrover> jgcampbell300 - OK, now it seems to be magically working of its own accord. All I did was reboot. lol. I'll still run lsusb and lspci
[18:11] <mgrover> Thanks!
[18:21] <PRIVATE> hello. sorry got disconnected, so I installed python from source in ubuntu 14.04 using ./configure, make, make install. After, lost my terminal and software center. Terminal was replaced by xterm.  Then the tab found on the left side of the desktop which has the dashboard disappeared. I
[18:21] <PRIVATE> I would really appreciate any help

[18:34] <Humorousone> Hmm, I'm a little bit worried about this laptop
[18:34] <Humorousone> I'm getting the occasional flash onscreen
[18:35] <nacc> PRIVATE: did you install into /usr/local or into /usr ?
[18:36] <Humorousone> I got PCIE errors when running windows on this laptop
[18:38] <k1l_> Humorousone: "dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999"
[18:40] <Humorousone> is it safe to post a link publically here k1l_ ?
[18:41] <k1l_> Humorousone: yes
[18:41] <Humorousone> http://termbin.com/8owm
[18:43] <k1l_> Humorousone: what was the issue on ubuntu?
[18:44] <ZrL`> hi there, i try to upgrade to 16.04 for some tests with update-manager, but there is nothing to upgrade...
[18:44] <freeone3000> How can I see what DHCPOFFER my client recieved? I'm trying to figure out why `nslookup` is giving me 127.0.1.1 as the DNS server and giving NXDOMAIN instead of the expected 192.168.128.167
[18:44] <ZrL`> someone can help me please :)
[18:44] <k1l_> ZrL`: use the developer switch. for more info #ubuntu+1
[18:45] <scam> http://pastebin.com/nbFxGcbs  is my ubuntu system on esxi 5.5. Tis was before i got vmtools running..  this is after vmtools is installed http://pastebin.com/vwzJFQPV
[18:45] <PRIVATE> nacc, I didn't
[18:45] <ZrL`> k1l_, thx :)
[18:45] <PRIVATE> well I'm not sure
[18:45] <PRIVATE> nacc, I typed in the command as it was given
[18:46] <Humorousone> k1l_, my screen flashes every now and then for a frame or so
[18:46] <Humorousone> k1l_, I'm wondering whether it's a hardware issue. When I run windows I get PCIE errors
[18:46] <k1l_> Humorousone: if its on windows too then that might be it
[18:46] <PRIVATE> nacc, but the READM says, to install in /usr/local, first do su root the make install, so I'm guessing /usr/local
[18:47] <Humorousone> k1l_, the really weird thing is
[18:48] <michaelrose> hey so if snappy packages are limited in accessing files how do they manage to open files you have requested,
[18:48] <Humorousone> k1l_, I had this same issue with this model laptop when I first got it. The laptop i'm currently using is a replacement
[18:48] <nacc> PRIVATE: i'm not sure, but changing hte version of python installed in your system may have been a bad choice (if it did install to /usr)
[18:48] <freeone3000> Alright, turns out I have to disable the DNS server in NetworkManager.
[18:48] <Humorousone> k1l_, I can't imagine it being simply a design issue, there would be a lot of people having this issue, wouldn't there? :/
[18:48] <k1l_> michaelrose: might want to ask in #snappy
[18:50] <michaelrose> thanks
[18:50] <PRIVATE> nacc, yes, I forgot ubuntu comes with python by default
[18:50] <PRIVATE> is there a way I can fix this
[18:52] <michaelrose> PRIVATE, fix that it comes with python?
[18:53] <michaelrose> PRIVATE, you might find important things depend on it
[18:54] <jgcampbell300> ok so I have a list of urls and i need to copy those urls to my hd so i dont have to load a page every time i want a pice of data from them ... any ideas
[18:55] <EriC^^> jgcampbell300: wget
[18:56] <k1l_> jgcampbell300: what list? why not mark them with the mouse, and copy them to a local text file? i dont get what your issue is here
[18:57] <jgcampbell300> EriC^^: can wget use url.txt to pull from and rename the htmls ? i been trying to use httrack with little luck
[18:57] <Locke60> Hallo
[18:57] <jgcampbell300> i have a txt list of all the urls ... i need something to go throu the list and save the pages to my drive
[18:57] <EriC^^> jgcampbell300: for i in $(cat url.txt); do wget ..; done
[18:57] <jgcampbell300> EriC^^: ahh thanks
[18:58] <PRIVATE> ok michaelrose, I can now see exactly how much. I can't use ubuntu any longer
[18:58] <k1l_> jgcampbell300: so you want to safe the webpages, or the download targets behind those urls.
[18:59] <jgcampbell300> k1l_: need  the data from the pages ... only way i can get my calc spreadsheets to grab info from data in the pages is to save the pages ... havent found a great way to do this yet
[18:59] <nacc> PRIVATE: you could try reinstall python from the archives, but i'm not sure it will work and/or fix everything
[18:59] <k1l_> PRIVATE: the main problem is, that a lot of programs on modern linux desktops depend on python. so changing the system wide python install might break such programs.  where did you install that 3rd party python to
[18:59] <nacc> PRIVATE: but really, you should know where you install something to if you do it as root
[19:00] <jgcampbell300> basicly i need the pices from the pages in my spreadsheet ... like some info at www.url.com xpath to data put it in cell b2
[19:00] <k1l_> jgcampbell300: there is curl
[19:00] <PRIVATE> nacc, yes my bad
[19:00] <jgcampbell300> and the site is nuts ... xpath is the only way i have seen so far to find the right data on each page
[19:00] <PRIVATE> k1l_, i believe it was /usr/local
[19:02] <PRIVATE> nacc, k1l_ michaelrose , will doing a reinstall/downgrade of ubuntu fix the lost dependencies?
[19:03] <k1l_> PRIVATE: of whole ubuntu? yes a new install of the OS will fix it.
[19:05] <PRIVATE> k1l_, thanks
[19:06] <eelstrebor> i have this problem where i can't connect to my ssh server even on the box where it's suppose to be running - i tried a restart and nothing - webmin has a button to start the server but i get the error message: Failed to start SSH server : start: Job is already running: ssh
[19:06] <eelstrebor> zenmap says it's not running also
[19:07] <k1l_> eelstrebor: webmin :(
[19:07] <k1l_> eelstrebor: restart the ssh manually
[19:11] <comblini> when will wget be updated to support multiple connections per download
[19:11] <comblini> does anyone here think they could fork it to do so?
[19:12] <eelstrebor> k1l_, this is what i got from sudo ssh start: http://pastebin.com/Zcft6yVr
[19:12] <xangua> comblini: or you could use aria or a graphical download manager like Uget
[19:13] <comblini> also does apt-get use wget to download deb files?
[19:13] <comblini> yes true but we all love wget
[19:13] <Callek> I might be just a newbie, but say I have a dir  ~/foo/bar and a dir ~/baz/bob  inside ~/baz/bob I do `ln ~/foo/bar bar`  so I then `cd ~/baz/bob/bar` .. is there anyway to make `echo "foo" > ../foo.txt` output to `~/baz/bob/` instead of `~/foo/` ?
[19:13] <Callek> some shopt or such
[19:13] <k1l_> comblini: i think you would need to talk to the wget guys for that.
[19:14] <k1l_> comblini: and apt already uses simultanious donwloads, it just lists them sequencially.
[19:15] <k1l_> !webmin | eelstrebor
[19:15] <k1l_> eelstrebor: so i guess webmin again broke some config files. which is the reason it got kicked out of debian and ubuntu.
[19:16] <eelstrebor> bummer - it was a useful admin tool for me
[19:17] <eelstrebor> i just installed a letsencrypt cert into webmin also - that was a non-trivial effort - oh well
[19:19] <Jordan_U> Callek: Not as you have stated the question exactly, but what is your end goal?
[19:20] <freeone3000> Callek: You could symlink '../foo.txt' to '~/baz/bob/foo.txt'
[19:21] <tby> Hi, I have an old 10.04 LTS server that I'm trying to upgrade but when running 'do-release-upgrade' it just says "No new release found" also tried with -d flag but still the same, any ideas? sources.list and some more info here; http://pastebin.com/AU9Yiv52
[19:22] <nacc> !eol | tby
[19:22] <lemarc> how do I get a list of all removable drives in terminal?
[19:23] <xangua> tby: do you have set the update manager to look for "next LTS release"and no for "new release"?
[19:24] <tby> xangua: prompt=lts in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[19:25] <k1l_> tby: xangua the changelog.ubuntu.com server had a hardware failure and was down. that did stop upgrades from working. i dont know if its working again
[19:25] <Bashing-om> lemarc: ' sudo parted -l ' for all connected drives .
[19:25] <k1l_> http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/ "The Ubuntu changelogs site is currently undergoing maintenance and should return shortly. "
[19:26] <Jordan_U> Callek: "set -P" will change the behavior of cd, but it's not clear that's what you want. There is also "cd -P" to have cd not resolve symlinks for only one command.
[19:30] <tby> nacc: its not listed as an EOL relase there yet, I was looking at this page for upgrading but process is not working https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PreciseUpgrades
[19:32] <nacc> tby: you said 10.04, though?
[19:33] <nacc> tby: precise is 12.04
[19:33] <k1l_> upgrades dont work right now
[19:33] <nacc> tby: also that -^
[19:33] <tby> oh right
[19:33] <tby> any idea when they will start working again?
[19:33] <tby> shortly
[19:33] <tby> sorry didnt read proper ^^
[19:33] <k1l_> when the server is setup again.
[19:33] <Bashing-om> tby: The means to do the normal release upgrade in your case does not exist. You have to do the EOL method as advised.
[19:40]  * Callek is Jordan_U basically I want things to traverse into a symlink, but not follow on the way out
[19:41] <Callek> Jordan_U: `cd ..` will not follow the symlink but will just exit it, however `echo "foo" >../foo` follows the symlink
[19:41] <Callek> its as if its doing something like $(realpath ..)/foo when I try to do stuff relating to the relpath
[19:42] <Callek> this bites me with python venv stuff, as well as "where do my output files go"
[19:42] <Callek> especially because I like to keep object/working-directories seperate from my code-repo checkouts, and thus I symlink those code-repos
[19:47] <shunt> hello, i am having difficulties upgrading from 14.04 to 14.10 on my machine, no matter how much i update, do-release-upgrade -d returns no new release found. This is even after I changed Promt=lts to Prompt=normal, why can't my computer find the upgrade?
[19:47] <nacc> shunt: 14.10 is eol
[19:48] <shunt> well i want to upgrade to 14.10 so i can then upgrade to 15.04
[19:48] <Myrtti> but if you wait a few weeks you can upgrade to 16.04 directly
[19:48] <nacc> shunt: both of which are eol as well
[19:48] <bekks> shunt: Why dont you wait a bit, and upgrade to 16.04.1 when it is released?
[19:50] <shunt> im trying to use systemctl to enable nettalk, but apparently that isn't possible on 14.04?
[19:50] <shunt> that's the only reason im trying to upgrade
[19:50] <bekks> shunt: since there is no systemd in 14.04, you cannot use systemctl.
[19:50] <bekks> Why dont you enable nettalk without using systemd?
[19:51] <shunt> so there is no way for me to enable nettalk before I can upgrade to 16.04.01?
[19:51] <bekks> shunt: Not using systemd.
[19:51] <bekks> shunt: Why do you need systemd for enabling nettalk?
[19:52] <nacc> Callek: i think what you're seeing is a known/documented thing
[19:52] <shunt> I'm following instructions on this web site https://samuelhewitt.com/blog/2015-09-12-debian-linux-server-mac-os-time-machine-backups-how-to
[19:52] <nacc> Callek: if you want to resolve symlinks with cd, you should use -P (aiui)
[19:52] <nacc> Callek: also, open() is what is used for file writing, which resolves symlinks normally, but cd probably uses the pwd
[19:52] <Callek> nacc: yea, I want my `cwd` to be the symlink'ed location
[19:52] <Callek> s/cwd/pwd/
[19:53] <bekks> shunt: sudo /etc/init.d/netatalk start should do the job.
[19:53] <Callek> but yea, I was mainly hoping for some way to make the shell cause `foo > ../bar` not to resolve the symlink outward (as in follow the pwd, not symlink so to speak)
[19:53] <nacc> Callek: ack, then you should use `cd -P`
[19:54] <llwalahoop> Hello there! Anyone know where firefox bookmarks are stored?
[19:55] <nacc> Callek: maybe you should use `pwd -P` too, not sure
[19:55] <nacc> Callek: or maybe look at what `set -o physical` does
[19:56] <l0ll1p0p> llwalahoop: not sure(dont have boomarks) butt could it be in yuor home directory under the .mozilla directory?
[20:00] <llwalahoop> l0ll1p0p: seems logical. thanks!
[20:04] <kibibyte> hi
[20:04] <kibibyte> ive got dell with preinstaled windows , i removed windows and insatlled ubuntu. Now i want install windows on virtual machine but when i want to grab windows from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7 i ve got message "The product key you entered appears to be for software pre-installed by the device manufacturer. Please contact the device manufacturer for software recovery options."
[20:05] <kibibyte> how to grab windows iso then ?
[20:06] <compdoc> kibibyte, I would try the key with windows 10, since its a free upgrade
[20:06] <kibibyte> o ill try
[20:06] <compdoc> not sure where to get an iso, tho
[20:06] <compdoc> they have a media creation tool, but requires you have windows running
[20:07] <DArqueBishop> compdoc: it may not take either. These keys and ISOs tend to require actual vendor hardware.
[20:07] <compdoc> worth a try

[20:21] <kibibyte> someone will put your usb stick into computer and will have disk erased
[20:21] <user__> kibibyte: thats fine, this is for a kiosk i am making
[20:22] <kibibyte> why not just run ubuntu from usb stick
[20:23] <user__> these are fascinating questions
[20:23] <user__> i guess ill look into kickstart configuring

[20:33] <pezdispenser> slappymcfry: Hello mate,

[20:33] <codephobic> my gfx card is a gtx 970 and my main monitor is connected via a displayport cable
[20:33] <nathanslc> Jordan_U, I have tried running boot repair but no luck
[20:33] <codephobic> I've tried googling, but found nothing relevant
[20:33] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: Did you make any changes to partitions recently?
[20:33] <anonymous_> hello people don't pass my
[20:34] <eelstrebor> i guess i'll have to re-install ubuntu to fix my ssh problems
[20:34] <nathanslc> Jordan_U, No, I restarted my computer to try and load windows and received the message.  And now I cannot boot either
[20:34] <anonymous_> spanish plis
[20:34] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: Are you currently booted into an Ubuntu LiveCD/USB on that machine?

[20:36] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: Please run boot info script: https://github.com/arvidjaar/bootinfoscript and pastebin the RESULTS.txt that it produces.
[20:38] <Jordan_U> jgcampbell300_: Unfortunately captchas were created to prevent automated interaction with websites, and using wget is an automated interaction with a website. What is your end goal>
[20:38] <Jordan_U> ?
[20:38] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: If you need help figuring out how to run boot info script feel free to ask.
[20:39] <jgcampbell300_> Jordan_U: pulling data from a gov site for statistics
[20:40] <nathanslc> Jordan_U:  If you could?
[20:41] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: Ok, first you need to download boot info script which you can do by running the following command "wget https://github.com/arvidjaar/bootinfoscript/blob/master/bootinfoscript" . That will create a new file, "bootinfoscript" in your current directory.
[20:41] <anonymous_> hello
[20:43] <nathanslc> Jordan_U: Ok I think I got it
[20:43] <anonymous_> hello
[20:43] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: When that finishes run "chmod +x bootinfoscript" to make it executeable then run "sudo ./bootinfoscript" to run boot info script, which will create a new file RESUTLS.txt . Run "pastebinit RESULTS.txt" to upload the RESULTS.txt to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com . pastebinit will output a pastebin URL, which you can then post here.
[20:45] <Bashing-om> !ask | anonymous_
[20:46] <nathanslc> Jordan_U: I get the following error:  sudo ./bootinfoscript  syntax error: newline unexpected
[20:48] <nathanslc> Jordan_U:  I did just run boot repair again and got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15819995/ does that help?
[20:48] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: Sorry, my mistake. "rm bootinfoscript".
[20:50] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: You don't have any Ubuntu root partition at all.
[20:51] <nathanslc> Jordan_U:  how can I fix that and what would cause it?
[20:53] <nathanslc> Jordan_U:  I get another error: Unable to read from results.txt
[20:53] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: It appears that you have overwritten your Ubuntu ext4 partition with a Windows ntfs partition. I don't know what would cause that other than intentionally doing so with partitioning software.
[20:54] <nathanslc> Jordan_U:  I have not run partitioning software at all.  Only boot repair.  Is it possible that windows has done something?
[20:55] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: It's possible. If so, then I hate to tell you that all of the files you had in your Ubuntu installation are now gone. *Some* *might* be recoverable, but even that will take a good amount of work.
[20:57] <nathanslc> Jordan_U:  Thats ok (sort of) I have all important files on ubuntu backed up.  There are however, programs used on windows that I cannot do without and will be very difficult reinstall
[20:58] <nathanslc> Jordan_U: I am not sure what to do from here as far as reinstalling ubuntu to get both running again.  I dont want to ruin anything.
[20:58] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: Good for you. You have no idea how rare good backups are (at least looking at problems people have in this channel).
[20:58] <Guy1524> wow, I have been having so many computer problems recently.  Starting today, my computer has become very unstable, most of the time when I try to boot it turns off, sometimes it starts, then freezes, sometimes the system just spontaneously freezes or shutsdown.  when it freezes all these weird artifacts come up on my monitor.  I am unsure of what do do.  I have an asus rog gl115JW laptop w/ ubuntu 15.10
[20:59] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: Assuming that your Windows installation is fine, which is hard to say since we don't know what caused this very major repartitioning, it's easy to get Windows booting again.
[20:59] <nathanslc> Jordan_U: can you tell me how?
[20:59] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: sudo apt-get install mbr && sudo install-mbr /dev/sda
[21:00] <nathanslc> Jordan_U: Ok did it.  Now do I restart?
[21:01] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: Yes.
[21:01] <nathanslc> Jordan_U:  Ok, Thanks for all the help.  I hope it works.  If not, I may try and find you again.
[21:02] <Jordan_U> nathanslc: You're welcome.
[21:03] <Diethyl> Anyone know  much about binwalk?
[21:03] <MannyLNJ> Help please. df -h shows / is at 100% I have no idea what is using all the space
[21:04] <Ben64> MannyLNJ: sudo du -hd1 /
[21:04] <anonymous_> hello
[21:05] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: is it gui?
[21:05] <k1l_> i mean, is it a desktop?
[21:05] <EriC^^> Jordan_U: his ubuntu wasn't overwritten, it's just missing the partition entry
[21:05] <pezdispenser> is there a way to filter out all the messages in here of people loggin is, disconnecting, timing out etc?
[21:06] <EriC^^> in the extended one, there's a 370gb worth of "free space" before his swap
[21:06] <Diethyl> I'm trying to extract a bios rom from an .exe provided by samsung does anyone know how I might go about this?
[21:06] <MannyLNJ> Ben64 it looks like /media is using 115G but /media is where my USB drives are mounted (or so I though) k1l_  no CLI over SSH
[21:06] <Ben64> MannyLNJ: ok so "sudo du -xhd1 /" and how big is / ?
[21:06] <Jordan_U> EriC^^: Ahh, thank you. I was looking at start and end sectors and completely forgot to check within the extended partition.
[21:07] <Jordan_U> EriC^^: I hope they come back :(
[21:07] <MannyLNJ> Ben64, / is showing 134G
[21:07] <EriC^^> Jordan_U: what is that mbr program?
[21:07] <EriC^^> generic windows mbr?
[21:07] <Ben64> MannyLNJ: i mean the partition
[21:07] <Jordan_U> EriC^^: Yup. Generic MS style "chainload the active primary partition" MBR.
[21:08] <EriC^^> aha i see
[21:08] <evng> pezdispenser, it's possible but depends on the client you are using
[21:09] <MannyLNJ> Ben64, How do I get the size of the partition?  the output of the command you gave me is at http://pastebin.com/zhQDcHGD
[21:09] <Ben64> MannyLNJ: the df -h you did earlier should tell you
[21:10] <MannyLNJ> Ben64, ahh it's 142G
[21:10] <Ben64> MannyLNJ: yep, everything in /media isn't on mounted anything, it's just in the folder
[21:11] <MannyLNJ> Ben64, this is NOT good. How can I fix this? under /media/emanuel I see an entry for USB_HDD_01 which I thought was one of my drives
[21:12] <Gill> hey guys I am trying to setup a tftp server but every time i connect and tyep get test transfer times out
[21:12] <Gill> I ngrep and see the requests
[21:12] <Gill> any ideas?
[21:12] <Ben64> MannyLNJ: so re-run the command i gave you, except put /media instead of /
[21:12] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: cna you show a "mount" output?
[21:13] <sebsebseb> hi
[21:13] <DirtyCajun> if i have a cron job just executing a file that has this in it couldnt i put this command directly in the cron and eliminate the extra file?   `cat file1 > /etc/motd && cat file2 >> /etc/motd && cat file3 >> /etc/motd`
[21:13] <MannyLNJ> k1l_,   http://pastebin.com/JG772CNU , Mount info
[21:14] <znr> Good evening dames and gents! I wish to know how I can link an application to my desktop using terminal. I have tried the 'ln' command without success and after reading the man-file I have come to understand that the 'ln' command is for folders. Cheers!
[21:14] <Ben64> znr: ln is for anything
[21:14] <MannyLNJ> Ben64,  /media/emanuel 104G /media/plex 12G and /media 115G
[21:15] <Ben64> znr: i'm fairly sure you don't want a link though
[21:15] <Ben64> MannyLNJ: yeah you need to fix that
[21:15] <EriC^^> znr: actually ln is only for files if that's what you meant?
[21:15] <EriC^^> (hardlinks)
[21:16] <znr> I wish to open an application from my desktop (shortcut)
[21:16] <MannyLNJ> Ben64, how can I fix this? I have no idea what I did to the system. I can't even use auto complete because of the no space
[21:16] <EriC^^> znr: which application?
[21:16] <Ben64> MannyLNJ: you haven't mounted your usb drives
[21:16] <jgcampbell300_> in regex how do i point out r and 9 numbers r#########
[21:17] <Jordan_U> znr: What application are you trying to get on your desktop? For GUI applications that you want opened via double click you'll need to use a .desktop file, but it's also usually pretty easy to set that up graphically so that you don't need to know what's going on in the background.
[21:17] <znr> Popcorntime (downloaded and unpacked)
[21:17] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: it looks like you write stuff onto your disk instead into the mountpoints?
[21:18] <xangua> znr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UnityLaunchersAndDesktopFiles
[21:18] <graps> Hi
[21:18] <znr> I do not use unity though
[21:18] <sebsebseb> graps: hi
[21:18] <graps> What's the best way to update Adobe Flash Player on Mozilla Firefox ?
[21:18] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: what is inside "/media"?
[21:19] <sebsebseb> graps: via the Ubuntu repos
[21:19] <Jordan_U> jgcampbell300_: That depends somewhat on what regular expression engine is in use. For perl you can use 'r\d{9}' .
[21:19] <MannyLNJ> Ben64, and k1l_  I understand. Can you help me with the mount  points and moving files? k1l_  in /media is emanuel and plex
[21:19] <graps> sebsebseb: Is there a command-line method to do this ?
[21:19] <jgcampbell300_> Jordan_U: ok t hanks
[21:20] <Jordan_U> jgcampbell300_: You're welcome.
[21:20] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: are you sure? please run a "ls -al /media"
[21:20] <sebsebseb> graps: just install updates normally for Ubuntu everything and it will do Flash as well as long as you got it installed from repos in the first place
[21:20] <sebsebseb> graps: partner repo I think  to install FFlash from repos
[21:20] <sebsebseb> !flash
[21:20] <MannyLNJ> k1l_,  http://pastebin.com/p6Sx224c
[21:21] <graps> sebsebseb: Okay, I'll try that method out. Thanks !
[21:21] <sebsebseb> graps: you have to enable something to install Flash from repos I Think yes
[21:21] <sebsebseb> graps: after you done that, your all ok
[21:21] <sebsebseb> graps: one other thing though.....
[21:21] <graps> sebsebseb: Yes ?
[21:21] <Jordan_U> znr: Does popcorn time show up in your normal application menus? (For example, can you search for it in Unity's dash?)
[21:22] <sebsebseb> graps: Adobe sucks, they hardly care about Flash for Linux anymore, so it's stuck it seems now on a version that well is a lower number than WIndows etc, that they will support a b ibt longer with security updates
[21:22] <sebsebseb> graps: luckily a lot of sites are starting to go to HTML  5 video for example Youtube, so Flash is starting to be needed a lot less now, but it will still stay around for certain things for years to come
[21:22] <graps> sebsebseb: Yeah, I've noticed that on the Ubuntu Linux browser. It's easier on the Windows Firefox browser
[21:22] <sebsebseb> I was going to use Flash for something said I had a older version
[21:22] <sebsebseb> graps: it's not Linux's fault
[21:23] <znr> I do not use Unity - but no I do not have it in my menus... as I wrote before - it is only unpacked and not 'installed'
[21:23] <graps> sebsebseb: Right, it's supply and demand....Ubuntu's slowly taking a back seat to Mint and/or CentOS
[21:23] <sebsebseb> graps: it's not eaiser on Windows it's the same really or would be, it's just Adobe have mostly dropped support for Linux on Flash.  can also have Flash via Google Chrome in another way, but I don't like Chrome
[21:23] <Ben64> znr: why don't you install it from the repository
[21:23] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: can you show a "df -h"? i somehow dont understand what you tried to mount into /media and how
[21:24] <sebsebseb> graps: Mint is based on Ubuntu and popuolar to, but not as popular,  Cent OS is similar to Redhat and I think mostly for servers  and dsuch
[21:24] <znr> because I hate unity!?
[21:24] <Ben64> znr: i mean the application
[21:24] <sebsebseb> graps: Flash version issues are Adobes fault!
[21:24] <znr> because popcorntime is officially dead
[21:24] <MannyLNJ> k1l_,  do you mean "df -h" or "df -h?"
[21:24] <graps> sebsebseb: Oh, okay, I think ? :)
[21:24] <Ben64> znr: then maybe you shouldn't use it ...
[21:24] <znr> needed to be downloaded from a mirror-site
[21:24] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: df -h
[21:25] <sebsebseb> graps: so blame Adobe if for some reason actasully it doesntg work on Linux suddenly, but WIndows yes since a later versoin,  a FLash thing
[21:25] <graps> sebsebseb: I'm attempting to buy concert tickets on the Ubuntu Firefox browser
[21:25] <jgcampbell300_> Jordan_U: so what if i want to use another expression in same line like /n ... wouldnt i need something like &/n ?
[21:25] <sebsebseb> graps: you could also do this :d
[21:25] <sebsebseb> graps: or try to do this :D
[21:25] <znr> Ben64:: https://i.imgur.com/cRBrr6z.png
[21:25] <sebsebseb> graps: install Wine, and then the Windows Flash version in a Windows Firefox,  if Flash is to old on Linux since Adobe's sillyness
[21:26] <znr> I use the .sh
[21:26] <graps> sebsebseb: Well, I'll give it the college try, and update Flash on Ubuntu Firefox
[21:26] <Ben64> sebsebseb: no
[21:26] <sebsebseb> graps: Flash is going to get old in Linux distros, the version number, Adobe don't really care anymore
[21:26] <Jordan_U> graps: sebsebseb: There is no need to run firefox in wine to get the latest flash in Ubuntu.
[21:26] <MannyLNJ> k1l_, https://paste.ubuntu.com/15820614/ I have  hard drives that are USB attached . I am trying ti mount them to store video and music files
[21:26] <Ben64> can use pepperflash on firefox, or use chrome
[21:26] <k1l_> graps: what is the exact issue?
[21:26] <sebsebseb> Ben64: a work around or possibly for the,  old version number we have now in Linux for Flash,  and certain sites will say will want  a later verison
[21:27] <sebsebseb> Ben64: I woudn't recommend that otherwise
[21:27] <Ben64> still no
[21:27] <Seveas> sebsebseb: uninstall flash, use sites that don't require it :)
[21:27] <graps> Hi k1l_ ! I'm attempting to update Adobe Flash player on the Ubuntu Firefox browser
[21:27] <Ben64> pepperflash or chrome
[21:27] <k1l_> ubuntu ships the latest adobe version for linux.
[21:27] <k1l_> graps: why that? if you have a supported ubuntu, you should have the latest version
[21:27] <sebsebseb> k1l_: it's stuck on a version number now, they only do security updates now
[21:27] <Jordan_U> sebsebseb: Adobe has abandoned flash for linux but google has not. The latest versions of flash are avialable as a pepper API plugin, and there is a shim that allows Firefox to use the pepper API based flash.
[21:28] <sebsebseb> graps: what Jordan_U put
[21:28] <k1l_> sebsebseb: that is what adobe is doing. right. but that is not ubuntu specific. but the websites/players do know that this is the latest version for linux
[21:28] <Jordan_U> k1l_: Adobe does not ship the lastest verson of flash for linux, but google does. See my above comment.
[21:28] <graps> k1l_: Remember the previous issue I had with Ubuntu Firefox ? The Firefox version is currently 45.0.1, and the Adobe Flash player is showing a vulnerability issue with the Flash plug-in
[21:29] <sebsebseb> Jordan_U: how to use the shim then, to get FIrefoxu sing the Chrome Flash?
[21:29] <vok`> Hi, I'm using Ubuntu MATE and asked in the channel but nobody is there. I'm having trouble with HDMI dual monitoring. After awhile the screen goes black, comes back, then shows what looks like perlin noise, and then the whole screen goes magenta. I then have to unplug and replug the HDMI to get it back, but then it all starts again after awhile. It's either a software problem or a problem with the physical HDMI port on my laptop.
[21:29] <vok`> The cable is fine.
[21:29] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: how are you mounting that drives?
[21:30] <sebsebseb> Jordan_U: I was not happy the other day, giving up to just using WIndows,  since  the Flash in Ubuntu was apparnatly to old!
[21:30] <MannyLNJ> k1l_, I t looked like it auto mounted when I attached it
[21:30] <sebsebseb> Jordan_U: the FIrefox Flash
[21:30]  * sebsebseb should have maybe tried to install Chrome, but I don't like Chrome
[21:30] <vok`> Anybody have any thoughts on my problem?
[21:30] <graps> I'm going to see if I can query the current Flash player version
[21:31] <k1l_> MannyLNJ: what system is that? is there running a desktop?
[21:31] <MannyLNJ> k1l_,  I am not home now . I am accost it remotley
[21:31] <Ben64> sebsebseb: or you know, just use pepperflash
[21:31] <sebsebseb> Ben64: how in Firefox?
[21:31] <Ben64> sudo apt-get install pepperflashplugin-nonfree
[21:31] <vok`> Can anyone help me?
[21:32] <k1l_> sebsebseb: sudo apt-get install browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash
[21:32] <Narwhaal> yaourt pepperflash
[21:32] <sebsebseb> !pepperflash
[21:33] <k1l_> Narwhaal: this is not #archlinux :)
[21:33] <Narwhaal> k1l_: I was fixing my own flash problem :)
[21:33] <Narwhaal> forgot the screen was telnet
[21:33] <Jordan_U> sebsebseb: graps: sudo apt install browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash
[21:34] <sebsebseb> graps: oh and that will giev the Chrome Flash in Firefox?
[21:34] <graps> k1l_: sebsebseb: The current Flash player is April 6, 2016. The one I d/l
[21:34] <Narwhaal> btw Jordan_U Unathi wants to say thanks for helping him with the problem he had yesterday
[21:34] <sebsebseb> Jordan_U: for you above
[21:34] <graps> d/l'd from Adobe is dated ...
[21:34] <sebsebseb> Jordan_U: that would give the Chrome FLash in Firefox?
[21:34] <Jordan_U> !info browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash | sebsebseb
[21:34] <sebsebseb> graps: yes that's the whole point the offical Adobe Flash is not that good anymore for Linux
[21:34] <sebsebseb> graps: they only support it with security updates now and nothing else, and the version number it's on will stay like that
[21:35] <graps> April 5
[21:35] <Jordan_U> sebsebseb: NPAPI meaning "works with Firefox".
[21:35] <sebsebseb> graps: in about two years I think as well Adobe will drop support like that for Linux completly as well
[21:35] <jgcampbell300_> hmm can you guys see the problem's here ...perl -pi -e 's/r\d{}9/r\d{9}\n/"SAVEAS TYPE=HTM FOLDER=~/Documents/imacro FILE="r\d{9}/n "WAIT SECONDS={{!VAR1}}"/g test.txt ...
[21:35] <sebsebseb> graps: but we can apparnatly get the GOOGLE Chrome way of doing FLash working with FIrefox, see what Jordan_U put above
[21:35] <graps> k1_: sebsebseb: Once again, current Flash player is dated April 6, 2016, and the u"update" is April 5, 2016
[21:36] <Ntemis> hi
[21:36] <Ntemis> need some help please
[21:36] <Ntemis> with E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[21:37] <sebsebseb> graps: yes but that verison will still have  older version number than say the WIndows one, since they are stuck on a old version number for Linux now, the offical Adobe Flash,  that will get no updates except security for a bit longer now
[21:37] <Jordan_U> Narwhaal: Tell him "you're welcome" :)
[21:37] <sebsebseb> !ask | Ntemis
[21:38] <graps> sebsebseb: Okay, I guess. I can try using Chromium, since I've got that installed too
[21:38] <Narwhaal> Jordan_U: will do :)
[21:38] <sebsebseb> graps: you don't need to
[21:38] <sebsebseb> graps: try peperflash
[21:38] <Narwhaal> (he doesn't have a computer so uses mine to do all his work :3)
[21:38] <sebsebseb> graps: Jordan_U gae a command for getting the more supported Flash working in Firefox
[21:38] <Ntemis> am trying to remove this package openattic-module-http
[21:38] <Ntemis> nothing works
[21:38] <graps> sebsebseb: I'll scroll up to see it
[21:38] <sebsebseb> graps: also Chromium does not have Flash support at all, it's Google Chrome that does out of those two, but not Chromium
[21:39] <sebsebseb> Ntemis: did you install from repos?
[21:40] <Ntemis> no :(
[21:40] <graps> Okay, I have the pepperflash instruction
[21:40] <sebsebseb> Ntemis: what kind of package is that anyway? and where you get from?
[21:40] <sebsebseb> graps: yep try that :) then re load Firefox, and try your Flash thing
[21:41] <Ntemis> sebsebseb: got it from here http://docs.openattic.org/2.0/install_guides/oA_installation.html#base-operating-system-installation
[21:42] <znr> Ben64:: Problem solved. Than you! That link was good...
[21:42] <Umeaboy> Why isn't adb sideload showing in bash when I type adb and pressing Enter?
[21:42] <Umeaboy> sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb is up-to-date according to apt.
[21:43] <k1l_> Umeaboy: "adb devices" shows what?
[21:43] <sebsebseb> Ntemis: hmm make use it's the offical site
[21:43] <sebsebseb> Ntemis: make sure it's the offical site
[21:43] <Ntemis> you mean sure?
[21:43] <Umeaboy> k1l_: It shows my device.
[21:43] <Jordan_U> graps: You can check what version of flash you're running at https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html (Just do *not* follow the instructions on that page for how to install flash, they are wrong).
[21:43] <Umeaboy> That's not the problem.
[21:43] <Umeaboy> I'm trying to sideload the supersu zip.
[21:44] <k1l_> Umeaboy: is the android device in recovery or fastboot?
[21:44] <sebsebseb> graps: yep DO NOT install it directly from the Adobe website yourself
[21:44] <Umeaboy> Currently booted to the system but I CAN boot it both modes.
[21:44] <graps> Jordan_U: Okay. I'm checking that site now
[21:45] <k1l_> Umeaboy: boot to recovery. than it will work
[21:46] <sebsebseb> Umeaboy: so uhmmm you only use Ubuntu now?
[21:46] <Umeaboy> sebsebseb: Nope. Both.
[21:46] <hetii> Hi
[21:47] <sebsebseb> hetii: hi
[21:47] <Umeaboy> k1l_: Wrong!
[21:47] <Umeaboy> I've booted to Recovery.
[21:48] <Umeaboy> I see no adb sideload in the help for adb.
[21:48] <graps> Jordan_U: Flash version is  21.0.0.216
[21:48] <Umeaboy> Android 6.0.1.
[21:48] <Umeaboy> Ubuntu 15.10.
[21:48] <hetii> Q: Any know bug in uck? I build my custom live cd iso and it boot fine under virtualbox but when use pendrive and try boot real system Syslinux raise Boot error.
[21:48] <Umeaboy> x86_64.
[21:49] <Umeaboy> 4.2.0-35-generic as kernel
[21:49] <znr> "<Umeaboy> I've booted to Recovery." - I will use that phrase the next time someone asks 'How are you' xD
[21:49] <graps> Things are looking good. I have a webpage loaded instead of the Flash player update needed
[21:50] <Jordan_U> graps: Great, that's the latest version available for any OS.
[21:50] <Umeaboy> znr: Good. :)
[21:50] <graps> Jordan_U: So, use the apt install for pepperflash from now on ?
[21:51] <Jordan_U> graps: I don't understand your question.
[21:52] <graps> Jordan_U: If I need to update the "Flash" player, use the command "sudo apt install browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash" ?
[21:52] <Jordan_U> graps: You shouldn't need to update flash player manually again. The package pepperflashplugin-nonfree should keep you up to date automatically.
[21:53] <graps> Jordan_U: Okay, thanks !
[21:53] <Jordan_U> graps: You're welcome :)
[21:54] <graps> I'm off. Have a good afternoon/early evening, all
[21:54] <jgcampbell300_> hmm ok i found what i w ant with r\d{9} so how do i add a new line and some text one it like /r\d{9}/r\d{9}\n"sometext"/?
[21:55] <Jordan_U> jgcampbell300_: Look up back references in perl regular expressions.
[21:56] <jgcampbell300_> Jordan_U: ahh back references ... thanks
[21:56] <Jordan_U> jgcampbell300_: If after looking up back references you still need help try #perl.
[21:56] <Jordan_U> jgcampbell300_: You're welcome.

[22:22] <sebsebseb> hetii: uhmm  you just use the default ISO :)
[22:22] <sebsebseb> hetii: you shoudn't really change that in that case, if it's hybrid or theo ther thing I mean
[22:22] <sebsebseb> !usb
[22:23] <hetii> sebsebseb, I use uck to generate iso image, no clue if its hybrid or not,
[22:23] <sebsebseb> hetii: yeah there's no point really editing an ISO for a Linux distro I think, unless making a remaster putting in your own packages, that's what I think anyway
[22:24] <hetii> I do remastering but its not issue now
[22:24] <sebsebseb> hetii: I always think of unetbootin when it comes to putting Ubuntu onto a USB,  but that's for WIndows reallly, might be a Linux version to.  there's also dd for putting ISO's of distros onto a USB, but I can't really give you thep roper command for that
[22:25] <terratom1> pv ubuntu.iso | dd of=/dev/sdb bs=4M
[22:25] <Ben64> warning ... make sure you pick the right device there ^
[22:25] <terratom1> pv ubuntu.iso | dd of=/dev/brain bs=4M
[22:25] <hetii> ok, unetbootin don`t use special magic i suppose, its just a wrapper I suppose.
[22:26] <hetii> terratom1, whats a differ between dd if= of= and by your way with pv and pipe ?
[22:26] <Ben64> pv shows progress
[22:26] <terratom1> hetii: i like to use pv to see status of time till completion of the dd
[22:26] <vervet> hetii: gives you progress while you're running it, otherwise you will see nothing
[22:26] <hetii> ok but I used dd also with bs=1M and that also not fix my issue
[22:27] <hetii> the progress bar is irrelevant now
[22:27] <bekks> hetii: how would bs=... fix an issue?
[22:27] <hetii> I don`t mean it should
[22:28] <hetii> just said what I test already.
[22:29] <hetii> ok but back to the subject. in usb pendrive I should have some bootloader (belive syslinux is not just the one that do the job) who will load kernel and pass control to it
[22:29] <hetii> so with one bootloader I can use/test
[22:31] <hetii> cause there need to be reason why it raise boot error. Moreover if I don`t plan to burn my iso into cd then suppose don`t need to use iso at all,
[22:31] <hetii> it make me crazy,, I always waste a bunch of time on such stuff ...
[22:37] <stststs> how come there's no xenial-netboot in trusty-updates for the installer? I thought ubuntu 14.04.4 came with the 4.4 kernel? apparently I can't use it in the installer....?
[22:37] <stststs> http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/main/installer-amd64/current/images/
[22:38] <execi> Why's the update manager not letting me to upgrade to 16.04?
[22:39] <execi> Do i need to add repos to sources.list by hand or?
[22:39] <sebsebseb> execi: since it's not even released just yet
[22:39] <execi> well there's builds on the repos. Surely there's a way
[22:39] <Vidmmry> what are packages? what is the idea behind it?
[22:39] <sebsebseb> execi: then I think you might hae to wait a bit anyway if on 14.04 before it bcomes availalbe in the usual way
[22:39] <brainwash> !16.04
[22:40] <sebsebseb> execi: you could upgrade early some how, but  a bit complex from 14.04 I think compared to 15.10
[22:40] <execi> Jesus effing christ with you
[22:40] <sebsebseb> execi: it's released in  about a week anyway
[22:40] <k1l_> execi: changelogs.ubuntu.com server was down due to hardware failure and needs to be setup again
[22:40] <execi> changelogs??
[22:40] <sebsebseb> !language | execi
[22:40] <k1l_> execi: that server is needed to calculate upgrades.
[22:40] <sebsebseb> hmm that factoid has changed I think
[22:41] <execi> Calculate. Got it.
[22:41] <k1l_> Vidmmry: packages are used for programs to be made already working with the ubuntu system.
[22:41] <terratom1> execi: if you really want to use the update manager to install to a release of ubuntu that is not out yet ( but will be soon !) , try channel #ubuntu+1
[22:41] <execi> sebsebseb: i'm not trying to be a dick, but when a question presents itself it calls for an answer and not a derailed remark.
[22:41] <terratom1> how was sebsebseb rude to you?
[22:42] <terratom1> you know this is a help channel right
[22:42] <terratom1> he didnt derail you at all.
[22:42] <execi> I never said he was rude.
[22:42] <terratom1> how was his answer not relevant to your interests ?
[22:42] <squinty> execi, and you should have read the topic so you weren't asking in the wrong channel to start with
[22:42] <terratom1> you could probably manually edit the files in /etc/apt.repos.d/ if you really need to upgrade right now
[22:43] <sebsebseb> yeah squinty has a point execi  it's #ubuntu+1 untill released next week
[22:43] <vanessaTL> how can i check whether my laptop's ethernet port is Gb?
[22:43] <vanessaTL> ...can do Gb
[22:43] <execi> You want me to spell it out for you, terratom1?
[22:43] <terratom1> sure  i guess ?
[22:43] <sebsebseb> !+1
[22:43] <terratom1> what is your problem you are having ?
[22:43] <terratom1> we will solve it
[22:43] <sebsebseb> !16.04 | execi
[22:43] <execi> first impression, "not released yet". Second impression "maybe you have to wait". Third, "i think you could upgrade somehow..."
[22:43] <Vidmmry> k1l_: so, for example, someone compiles Gimp on his machine, makes package from those files, and uploads it to Ubuntu?
[22:43] <execi> Thanks sebsebseb can you do that one more time?
[22:44] <k1l_> Vidmmry: that is what the "maintainers" do. yes.
[22:44] <terratom1> replace every mention of 'trusty' with 'xenial' in /etc/apt/sources.list , then apt-get update && apt-get upgrade , if you really need to upgrade to xenial right now
[22:44] <terratom1> there is a channel for xenial ( #ubuntu+1 )
[22:45] <sebsebseb> terratom1: yep and he's gone now :)
[22:45] <terratom1> oh ok
[22:45] <terratom1> sorry i have /parts filtered
[22:45] <terratom1> maybe he's having a bad day
[22:45] <sebsebseb> terratom1: thanks for taking mhy de fence in a way I guess though h eh :d
[22:45] <sebsebseb> some people aren't really worth trying to help that much
[22:45] <terratom1> it is weird when people get upset when their question in a freenode channel is not answered in 5 seconds
[22:46] <Vidmmry> k1l_: why this package that maintainer creates works on all machines?
[22:46] <sebsebseb> terratom1: not really, it's been like that for many years now, many many many years, in this channel
[22:46] <Humorousone> hello
[22:46] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: hi
[22:46] <k1l_> Vidmmry: because the maintainer made sure that all the depencies for "gimp" to run properly are fulfilled. that is the sense behind the packagesystem.
[22:47] <Humorousone> what partitions does ubuntu have by default, after install?
[22:47] <Humorousone> does it have a recovery partition?
[22:47] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: no recovery pariton and that's not needed since not WIndows
[22:47] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: you get / by default a bit like C in WIndows if you like
[22:47] <k1l_> Vidmmry: so if gimp needs program1 and program2 installed too, they are marked to be installed to. so the packagesystem will download them form the repo servers, too.
[22:47] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: and probably some s wap space to, and that's it
[22:47] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: I'm trying to remove ubuntu from this particular laptop. It's on a dual boot with windows 10
[22:48] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: Trying to work out which partitions are windows, and which aren't
[22:48] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: a ww remove why? and removing is quite easy
[22:48] <k1l_> Vidmmry: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/package-management.html
[22:48] <Vidmmry> k1l_: thank you
[22:49] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: there will be a Ext4 /  that's Ubuntu, and a tiny swap space,  but yeah seriously removing why?
[22:49] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: This laptop doesn't seem to like ubuntu very much
[22:49] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: also if you delete those, there will still possibly be a bit of Grub left on there
[22:49] <Eiam> What creates an "Aptfile" ? I'm trying to debug some buildpack and its trying to read from an Aptfile, but I cannot find anything that creates it. I found https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptFile, but that appears to be something else. the apt-howto doesn't mention such a file either
[22:49] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: doesn't seem to like Ubuntu why?
[22:50] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: Well the laptop has some kind of issue where it experiences PCI errors
[22:50] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: what do you mean by that?
[22:50] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: windows seems to handle these a little better than ubuntu
[22:50] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: Ubuntu = flash onscreen
[22:50] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: Windows = the occasional beep and error in log
[22:50] <sebsebseb> Ubuntu flashes when booted up?
[22:51] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: maybe you got hardware issues, WIndows ins't meant to beep or put errors in the log
[22:51] <Humorousone> the screen just flashes at random intervals
[22:51] <Humorousone> I can give a long story on that :P
[22:51] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: and Ubuntu or most other distros,s hould work quite nicely on y9our computer
[22:51] <Humorousone> Idk if this is the right chanel for it though
[22:51] <k1l_> Eiam: maybe that is better suited in #ubuntu-packaging since i guess you talk about package building
[22:51] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: if you got hardware issues, regardldess of the software that's run the OS etc, there will be issues
[22:52] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: I'll give you a link to the HP forums topic I created for it
[22:52] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: yeah ok
[22:52] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: It's just super strange. I had this laptop replaced for the same model, and it has the same issue
[22:52] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: and may lap top is a newer one from last year and HP, and yep it works well with Ubuntu
[22:52] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: I got this one this christmas
[22:52] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: I had a  message about pososibly over heating though which was annoying, but that was a Windows thing!
[22:53] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: when it would lose all power
[22:53] <sebsebseb> and back on again and such
[22:53] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: apparnatly HP don't actsaully build lap tops that well, going by what someone said to me last year
[22:53] <sebsebseb> but then sell tehm for a lot anyway hmm
[22:54] <Humorousone> https://i.gyazo.com/602a30a840472001283d3c1fd836a5ec.png << current partitions
[22:54] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: oh lost you there?
[22:54] <Humorousone> The only thing I've deleted is the ubuntu partition itself
[22:54] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: hmm?
[22:54] <sebsebseb> oh nevermind I was scrolled up to much
[22:55] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: yes that looks like only Windows on there now
[22:55] <nuno_nunes> hi goodnight for all
[22:55] <nuno_nunes> :)
[22:55] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: however  when it boots up it still says something about Ubuntu yeah?
[22:55] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: the boot loader Grub
[22:56] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: Yep, grub is still avaliable as a boot option
[22:56] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: yep but Grub won't work properly, since you deleted the rest of it from the Ubuntu partiion that you deleted
[22:56] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: might be able to boot up WINDOWS that way maybe though
[22:56] <sebsebseb> but sure that's it otherweise
[22:56] <sebsebseb> Ubuntu is gone
[22:56] <sebsebseb> and completly
[22:57] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: the tiny bit of Grub that works with your UEFI is seperate from the UBuntu install, that's what left on there
[22:57] <squinty> Humorousone,  ask in windows channel how to get into recovery mode....windows should remove grub all together via there
[22:57] <Humorousone> squinty: Recovery mode vs recovery disk?
[22:57] <Humorousone> I've already created one, couldn't find an option when I booted to a recovery disk
[22:58] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: then switch it back to the WIndows boot manager I guess as well, and yep,  but that's a shame Ubuntu got removed,  maybe you should try out some other distro on there to, not Ubuntu based, of some sort, to see if that works better at elast, or even the Ubuntu 16.04 when released next week
[22:58] <squinty> Humorousone,  as said   a windows channel is more appropriate :)
[22:58] <Humorousone> squinty: I'm in that channel too ;)
[22:59] <Humorousone> squinty: Just making sure I'm not leaving anything ubuntu behind
[22:59] <Humorousone> I'll probably reinstall it during the summer after my A level exams
[22:59] <Humorousone> but in the meantime I don't have the energy to troubleshoot this kind of thing extensively
[22:59] <Humorousone> lol
[22:59] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: A Levels oh a young one,  ok that explains the lap top for Christmas to I guess h eh ( I am also from UK )
[23:00] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: Yep, got it to last me through uni.... It's not had a particularly good start
[23:00] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: Linux should wlork nicely on there
[23:00] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: where's your link to the hp issues?
[23:00] <sebsebseb> the fourm?
[23:00] <Humorousone> > h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Video-Display-and-Touch/Pavilion-15-ab254sa-Random-beeping-sound-Intel-graphics/m-p/5485146
[23:01] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: the one thing that might have a few issues with is the UEFI  but actsaully that's mostly sorted and working now so eh,  disable secure boot and yep
[23:01] <Humorousone> These issues are from windows though, I haven't updated the thread for the ubuntu problems
[23:02] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: Yes I think it has actsaul hardware issues of some sort, hence the beep, and even having issues with WIndows
[23:03] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: Reckon it's a bad batch of laptops then? this is a replacement laptop of one with exactly the same issues...
[23:03] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: and mine had a mentioned over heating issue thing apparnatly, get a screen, well with WIndows I did, oh aren't HP great  at sending out properly working lap tops ( s ar casm )
[23:03] <Humorousone> I think it's worth noting
[23:04] <Humorousone> ubuntu was great for the week I used it
[23:04] <Humorousone> sooo fast
[23:04] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: yep they could have sent out a lap top with the same hardware fault
[23:04] <Humorousone> Not so great for newbies though lol
[23:04] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: Like it was an exchange from a different store, but for the same model laptop
[23:04] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: for newbies?  nah Ubuntu or most distros for hte past few years are quite easy to learn :)
[23:05] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: you should try and remove ubuntu off it properlly though if you want to get HP support
[23:05] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: I remember once  some guy from HP on the phone when I mentioend LInux was a bit like,  uhmmm  if you put it back to factory mode and send it back to us then yeah should be ok
[23:05] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: HP won't support LInux at all I mean officaly so
[23:06] <bekks> Which is not true at all.
[23:06] <sebsebseb> not for desktop computers, they pretend to care though here and there when it comes to the enterprise, but that's a differnet story
[23:06] <bekks> HP ships linux drivers for most systems.
[23:06] <sebsebseb> bekks: I meant for the desktop
[23:06] <Humorousone> sebsebseb: Apparently HP support will work on your laptop if they have access to windows
[23:06] <sebsebseb> they recommend WIndows blah de blah
[23:06] <Humorousone> their diagnostic stuff works with windows
[23:06] <sebsebseb> Humorousone: yep, but they won't do something with Linux
[23:08] <Humorousone> hmm
[23:08] <Humorousone> alright
[23:08] <Humorousone> I've got to go
[23:09] <Humorousone> For some reason my VPN isn't on freenode's blacklist
[23:09] <Humorousone> which is odd
[23:09] <Humorousone> my other ip was
[23:09] <Humorousone> anyway
[23:09] <Humorousone> night
[23:09] <Humorousone> <3
[23:12] <Sorch> ;o
[23:13] <leo_86> sorry can i ask someone how can i join a server?
[23:15] <argentininanlost> hello all, i have a problem!! i cant configure lightdm to use correct resolution with nvidia drivers!!
[23:16] <vanessaTL> i'm gonna connect my linux laptop with windows10 desktop with ethernet cable. i was advised to manually set up IP addresses. how do i do that?
[23:16] <pulsar12> why would pppd process try to resolve name "ppp0" while a client is connecting?
[23:17] <hetii> re
[23:17] <hetii> ok based on this thread: https://web.archive.org/web/20140327085331/https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/installation/manual/linux/index.en.html
[23:18] <hetii> I was able to boot my iso image from usb pendrive
[23:18] <hetii> but ...
[23:18] <sebsebseb> vanessaTL: what was your issue?
[23:18] <k1l_> hetii: what iso is it?
[23:19] <hetii> when I use isobybrid and push it via dd into pendrive, then gparted report that I have there recursive partition table, so I cannot for eg create second partition for persistent data
[23:20] <hetii> k1l_, its ubuntu-mate that I will remaster at the end
[23:20] <Ben64> hetii: use unetbootin instead
[23:21] <hetii> Ben64, when I use it I end with Boot error
[23:21] <hetii> from syslinux
[23:21] <Ben64> are you sure you have a good copy
[23:21] <k1l_> there was a syslinux version change recently. and pendrivelinux and such tolls might not work anymore
[23:22] <hetii> Ben64, I build that iso and test it via virtualbox and there all is fine.
[23:22] <hetii> k1l_, yep, something is wrong there
[23:22] <Ben64> you built the iso? seems like that might be a problem
[23:23] <hetii> gosh ...
[23:24] <N3X15> Out of curiosity, is it okay to just nuke the sources.list.d entry that a PPA adds and then apt-get update, or is ppa-purge required?
[23:24] <k1l_> N3X15: ppa-purge is the better way
[23:25] <N3X15> k1l_, okay.  I'll do that, then.
[23:25] <k1l_> N3X15: since just removing the ppa entry will keep the ppa-pacakge in the system still. and that might block the original package to be installed or updated original packages to be installed
[23:28] <rhorse_> Hi, I have another distro on this hdd with it's version of grub installed into the MBR. If I run the grub2-install command from within ubuntu, will that satifactorily install OVER it into the MBR? I want to remove that other distro from the drive.
[23:29] <Ben64> rhorse_: what is your goal? do you have ubuntu installed?
[23:30] <pulsar12> rhorse_, it should. double check on which device you want to install
[23:30] <rhorse_> yes, Ben64, Ubuntu was installed first, and the other distro overwrote it's grub when it was installed.
[23:30] <Ben64> then yeah that should work
[23:31] <rhorse_> OK, I'll keep my fingers crossed. thanks!
[23:33] <pulsar12> anyone know why would pppd process try to resolve name "ppp0" while a client is connecting? this behavior blaffs me :<
[23:34] <sebsebseb> rhorse_: which other distro?
[23:34] <sebsebseb> rhorse_: and that's just on a old BIOS system yeah, not UEFI ??
[23:52] <rhorse_> sebsebseb: yea, an old bios, not uefi
[23:54] <sebsebseb> rhorse_: whatever distro you put on last if you intsall Grub
[23:55] <sebsebseb> rhorse_: will take over that bit of the MBR yes
[23:55] <sebsebseb> rhorse_: but if you want it to be UBuntu's but taken over by another dsitro, I think there's a way to re install
[23:55] <sebsebseb> !grub
[23:55] <sebsebseb> rhorse_: plus the toher Grub may not update uqite properly  by the other distro
