[00:01] New2Linux, thats a great topic for the offtopic channel [00:02] I smell a joke :) there isn't a channel called (offtopic) [00:02] New2Linux: #ubuntu-offtopic (not a joke) [00:03] Opps I'm sorry again I think it was [00:03] anyway I will join that channel [00:03] New2Linux: No problem, miscommunication happens :) [00:06] Although I'm studying English at the university but I still unable to understand the westren culture I mean I can't understand the funny things and boring ones according to the westren poeple [00:06] Hi guys, can I get an existing POSIX user into LDAP?

[00:18] its sooo close to releasing haha [00:18] 4 days til it's officiallt launched [00:18] i could just wait four days... [00:18] <\9> you'll need to upgrade to the released version anyway. with 15.10 you can actually get support in here in case you get problems [00:19] does anybody know what is the upgrade policy on kernels for LTS versions? (Beside the enablement updates at point releases) [00:19] i've never done the upgrade [00:19] <\9> and yeah, if you wait 4 days before installing you don't have to upgrade after installing at all [00:19] always reinstalled [00:19] does the upgrade usually go smoothly for you? [00:19] currently 16.04 is based on kernel version 4.4.5 [00:19] <\9> usually yeah [00:20] usually lol [00:20] a long time ago I always read about problems with upgrading. So I just reinstalled [00:20] as 4.4 is a LTS kernel branch do they upgrade to 4.4.6, 4.4.7 and so on or do they stick a 4.4.5 and backport some of the changes? [00:20] but that was a long time ago. I haven't been much into linux lately [00:32] hello [00:33] is anyone here familar with the command "rtcwake" [00:33] having trouble with the command [00:33] this is the one im using , sudo rtcwake -m no -l -t $(date +%s -d ‘tomorrow 06:30’) [00:34] but its not following through [00:34] is that the correct format? === Rhorse_ is now known as Rhorse [00:40] anyone? === chu_ is now known as chu [01:02] installed the russian lang pack, works fine but now when I, for example do %ls -l, the listing info is in cyrillic chars.

I like draft beer :) [01:09] hm [01:09] lots of draft beer [01:09] Ok [01:09] preferably plenty [01:10] pro_waxer: if a: is supposed to be the top of the list, it's LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 [01:12] http://paste.ubuntu.com/15906503/ [01:13] there's the whole locale command [01:13] sulfasal, maybe your term settings arent right? [01:14] sulfasal, I would check those settings: before the lang pack, then I would look them after lang pack, and see if there are diffs [01:15] pro_waxer: how do I check? This is 15.10 [01:18] sulfasal, 1st you must to identify it (xterm, rxvt... I dont know), and then you can search the docs for that [01:19] Doesn't say on the terminal, but it's the stock issue, came with the OS [01:19] sulfasal, your locale setting is more complicated than what im use to: you have another alphabet involved [01:21] OK, under Sys Settings -> Lang support -> Regional Formats it's Russian. I changed it back to English, but I have to log out first. [01:21] * sulfasal outtahere!

[01:39] that maybe good since one is good for some tasks and the other for another.. [01:39] didnt know that [01:39] pro_waxer: I ran alsa only for a long time, but a recent upgrade to Skype required pulse [01:39] somsip, no conlficts? [01:40] pro_waxer: it works, and I don't tend to mess with things that cause no problems [01:40] zen-guy, youre telling youre running both at the same time? [01:41] what do you guys actually think about unity these days? [01:42] n-iCe: that's one for #ubuntu-offtopic - support only in here please [01:43] interesting, i wonder if installing different DE's changed the sound servers [01:43] wheres that portunhol dude.. [01:43] kubuntu-desktop, cinnamon, gnome [01:45] cya guys === KingTheon is now known as Bot6 === Bot6 is now known as KingTheon === KingTheon is now known as KingGreyjoy === KingGreyjoy is now known as luckybunny [01:56] Trying to install a LAMP server using this guide, https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-linux-apache-mysql-php-lamp-stack-on-ubuntu. I got it installed. But isntead of putting my files in the /var/www/html/ directory, how can I get it to be in my home directory [02:07] when i install ubuntu and first login to the system after a couple of minuts it crashes x and the error messegs says something like "radeon stalling xxxx ms" someone know what it can be? [02:07] i got a radeon 390x card [02:09] Zythyr_: if you want the www directory to be in there (instead of ~username), change the DocumentRoot in etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf [02:10] FManTropyx I did that, but now when I go to http://ipaddress/index.html it says I don't have permission [02:11] yes, you need to have your home directory accessible to www:www, which means o+r [02:12] FManTropyx Sorry I am a noob. How can I do that? [02:12] so basically chmod o+r -R /home/ [02:12] or maybe it needs to be chmod -R o+r /home/ [02:13] yeah, option first, then permissions === Ramon is now known as Guest43561 [02:15] FManTropyx: nooooooo! Not safe [02:16] Zythyr_: read this - you only need to make one subdir in your home dir readable/writeable to www-data, not the whole thing http://askubuntu.com/questions/26848/permissions-issue-how-can-apache-access-files-in-my-home-directory [02:16] for some reason the Ubuntu server I installed makes users' home directories readable by anyone by default... [02:16] FManTropyx So I changed the DocumentRoot location to ~/www. Instead of doing chmod o+r -R ~/www, can I add www:www to the ownership or group? [02:17] If I just save an iso of the partition my linux is on, is it the same as a backup? [02:17] you need to specify an absolute path in DocumentRoot [02:17] what is that? [02:18] perhaps you can set your files to be owned by the group www and then set g+r instead [02:18] but I chose to assume that you have a single user system :) [02:18] mhm, [02:19] Is the www:www or is it www-data [02:20] I think apache2 runs as both user www and group www === shuduo-afk is now known as shuduo [02:21] i cant connect to my win10 server with a shared drive, will not accept my login info. I have smb enabled on the win pc. i can see it in network just cant login. any ideas why? [02:21] also, why does backup keep asking me to enter the encyption pass [02:21] I hit remember passwird [02:24] @ibrunfield Make sure you are using the same NTLM version [02:25] @ibrumfield https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/smb.conf.5.html might be of some help to you. just look for "NTLM" [02:26] @vert great, thanks [02:26] Please how I can disable the GNOME time screen that appears after the computer is idle? I already turned off lock screen. And I already tried No Disable Screen Shield extension, no good. [02:27] @aclaudem Let me know if this helps you out. You might also try using dconf-editor. https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/36256/how-do-i-disable-the-gnome-lock-screen/ [02:28] I didn't see anything in dconf Vert [02:28] FManTropyx I tried this method,but I am getting permission denied: http://askubuntu.com/a/64894 [02:28] Already have screen lock off too Vert [02:28] @aclaudem try this one from that thread: gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-lock-screen true [02:29] Vert already set that way :P [02:29] @aclaudem the last thing I have for you is this: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/517/caffeine/ [02:30] Vert I want my screen to turn off if idle, though (to save power) [02:31] (It's not lock screen, it's the screensaver with the big clock. You have to press space or scroll up to make it go away. But I dont want it to appear in the first place) [02:31] Could you use Caffiene to disable that in Gnome/Mutter, but still keep the "turn display off" in power settings? I haven't used Caffiene before, but it sounds like the "disable auto-suspend" feature is optional === Nach0z_ is now known as Nach0z [02:32] It's not suspend (I don't use suspend, doesn't work on my laptop). I want my screen to turn off when idle (not suspend) [02:32] I dont want to burn my screen :P [02:32] Zythyr_: I don't know about that - simply making them available in the way I described should work [02:33] @aclaudem How about this? https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/672/disable-screen-shield/ [02:34] Sounds like exactly what you're looking for as long as it works for your version, yes? [02:34] There are some patches down below in the comments on that page if you need to do something specific for your version. [02:35] Like I said I tried that one before. The screen still appears. But Ill check the patches [02:40] "connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com (91.189.91.23)"... stuck at 0% [02:40] ooh [02:40] nm [02:40] it was just waiting for me to get on IRC [02:40] apparently [02:40] Thanks anyway Vert [02:40] :) [02:46] <_Diskord> bash or zsh? [02:51] Need help. I installed LAMP server using this method. HOw can I navitage to the webserver with the URL http://localhost instead of the IP. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-linux-apache-mysql-php-lamp-stack-on-ubuntu [03:03] Zythyr_, localhost is just 127.0.0.1 [03:04] Zythyr_, did you bind apache to localhost? or just an external IP address/ [03:04] when you make a network program, you have to tell it what network interfaces to bind to - they don't just automatically bind to every network interface on your computer [03:04] so you can do things like only make a program visible on one side of a router, for example [03:05] Zythyr_, I don't know exactly, but it's going to be the "Listen" directive to apache, most likely [03:09] anyone got a list of the depends for ia32-lib/ia32-libs-multiarch? or can point me at one? [03:10] Zythyr_: Why are you using a guide from digitalocean? If you're using a digitalocean VPS then it is by definition not local, and it's not possible (in any reasonable way) to open a browser on the VPS. If your web server is on a remote machine, then trying to connect to it via localhost makes no sense. [03:12] Jordan_U: x forwarding over SSH is a thing. usually moot though, VPS tend not to have a graphics card. [03:12] xaxxon I didn't bind. But after reboot, when I type localhost or 127.0.0.1 it automatically goes to my websever with the ip address. so its worked1 [03:13] kisuke: Hence why I added "in any reasonable way" :) [03:15] Jordan_U: you and i have a slightly diffrent version of reasonable.

[04:01] oh nice, where did you source that? [04:01] right [04:01] Banana Pi [04:01] same price as the rpi $35 [04:01] ah [04:01] is it as fast ast the raspberry pi 3? [04:01] hmm, not certain [04:02] I think the Pi3 is a better buy right now because of the wifi/bt [04:02] yeah -- integral [04:02] however, USB2 is still a limiting factor for a NAS build [04:02] also the banana pi has GB networking [04:02] sata2 that runs at 3gbps [04:02] so it's got a lot going for it [04:02] I say, why not grab both haha [04:02] mate is great [04:03] for pi3 [04:03] I agree, I'm glad it was made [04:03] gnome has lost their way a bit [04:03] I use Unity at work, I got used to it [04:03] * nomic went up the wall for 2 days, trying to get nfs working on raspibian .. managed it [04:03] it's just so much easier when constantly unplugging my laptop for a dock [04:03] then just installed mate -- was up and running in 15 minutes -- everything [04:03] everything works.

IMO [04:07] nomic, its all PC. consoles can abstract it all away, but PC will always have backwards compatablilty.

To make sure, type « sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade » in a terminal. [04:47] i did that but dont see anything that says that i am upgrading to 16.04 [04:47] devslash_: until final release i would not recommend to upgrade, things can still break in this stage [04:47] devslash_: unless you want to help testing 16.04? [04:49] isnt it going to be released on 4/21 [04:49] as far as the final release goes [04:49] devslash_: yes [04:49] devslash_: but if you want to upgrade now already, sudo do-release-upgrade -d [04:50] since its so close to release, would it be mostly stable....'

[11:40] <`z> There are many console-based editors, and nano is just one of them. [11:41] vim,vi,nano, about 40 more cli editors [11:42] joe [11:42] the editor ;) [11:43] how do i login as root?

[16:16] don't have to set permissions for apps to access files on drives [16:17] etc etc [16:17] ...first time I'm using this app.... I see now that I', not quite alone here... :-p [16:17] ubuntu would be fine if it were mose user friendly [16:17] elGALL0 what brings you here? if you don't like ubuntu, you're free to not use it [16:17] I think we've diverged from the topic of support. [16:17] and nothing against you. just that having to mess with all these apps and some devs are douches [16:18] elGALL0: such discussion is not welcome in our channels. [16:18] sorry for taking out frustraions on you guys. [16:18] I would like to learn to do unattened installations of Ubuntu, anyone have time to assist me...? [16:18] elGALL0 you're the one who sounds frustrated, we're happy with ubuntu, thank you for asking [16:19] jsut in other channels I ask for help and get told to use google or check the forum, which i'd already done and the reason im on IRC. [16:19] out MY frustrations* [16:19] elGALL0 we get it, now take it elsewhere, this is the support channel [16:20] ok so with scripting, does anyone have any ideas on where to get started if the *.torrent doesnt have any metadata? [16:20] elGALL0: scrape the file and look for a unique string [16:21] bear in mind I'm a 5 weeks in with ubuntu, as a server not a daily, [16:21] how do I scrape? all i've done is look at properties? [16:21] well open up the file [16:21] and look at the tracker info [16:22] and use that to determine what tracker it came from [16:23] if I open it with gedit the URL info I would normally use in OS X is there, how would i tell ubuntu to "open *.torrent with gedit if url contains [movie tracker name] move here" etc for tv and music? [16:24] elGALL0: i did a quick google and fwiw, macosx stores the "wherefrom" attribute as an xattr; i wonder if you could script the torrent program you use to do something similar, like a post-download hook [16:24] elGALL0: oh it's in the file itself? [16:24] elGALL0: you could use a bash script or a python script or really any type of script [16:25] rewind, [16:25] Can you move the piracy discussion to another network please? [16:25] <--- no clue how to script [16:25] elGALL0 say OS X once more [16:25] i can run python scripts if they;re preconfigured, but i mess that up half the time [16:26] I think this doesn't belong to Ubuntu channel, rather to scripting channels? [16:26] Pick bash or pyton or perl [16:27] From what I read the kikstart app is able to get the locally install packages/ppa... but I only see one Kubuntu desktop... So um, what might I be doing wrong...? [16:27] ok i'll try python thanks === elGALL0 is now known as elGALLO [16:28] how can i install ubuntu 14.04 mini in uefi? or is there 16.04 beta mini in uefi available? [16:31] CRz_: you mean preseed/kickstart? [16:33] nacc: Yeah... or not sure.... I want to PXE it from PXE linux and add some extra ppa's and remove some apps I never use... And get GUI for install location (want manual control of that)... [16:33] CRz_: so, to be clear, not unattended? [16:34] CRz_: so yeah, i think you want to look into preseeding, and specify the bits in your preseed file that provide the pre-defined things you know about, whatever you don't preseed will get prompted for [16:34] Yes, but not the install path.... the rest unattened.... :-) [16:34] CRz_: you might consider using an installation server tool, like cobbler (there are others, i'm just most familiar with cobbler) [16:36] That would be fine too... at the moment I have Windows 2008r2 setup.... with PXE Linux ontop... [16:36] Do you know of any other provitioning tools? [16:39] But the kikstart app, how does one use that... think there is someting wrong with the one thats available at Ubuntu launchpad... most likely I'm doing something wrong... doesnt hurt to ask... :-) [16:39] CRz_: there is no "kickstart" app [16:40] CRz_: kickstart is a specification (sort of) for syntax for an autoinstall file [16:40] CRz_: it's mostly supported on ubuntu, but some thigns still need to be preseeded [16:40] So.. I may have made a derp.. I accidentally saved a file to a system directory, and now I can't find it. I don't remember where I saved it, and it is not showing up in any of my searches. [16:40] I meant the system-config-kikstart... [16:41] CRz_: that's for creating kickstart files, afaict [16:41] CRz_: i have no idea about it, sorry [16:42] Is there some other way to try and find it? [16:42] OneM_Industries: do you know what the file's name is? [16:43] ..you are going to hate me. "Passwords.odt" [16:43] nacc: ok... I'm able to start livecd over pxe... all I need is to add a kikstart cfg... [16:43] Already searched for that, and it is not showing up. [16:43] OneM_Industries: try `locate Passwords.odt` [16:44] Thank you! === matthelmke is now known as matthelmke-afk [16:44] Now to figure out why it went to "/lib/firmware/intel/intel/Passwords.odt" [16:44] is us.archive.ubuntu.com down? [16:45] CRz_: did you take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KickstartCompatibility? [16:45] I can't use apt-get because it wont respond. I pinged the server and it seems to be responsive. [16:45] OneM_Industries: /lib/firmware/intel is owned by root. it's not so easy to accidentally save there [16:45] CRz_: you will almost certainly need to use some preseed if you want everything but the install path to be pre-specified [16:46] akik: I didn't even open it for a while, is the thing. [16:46] Anyone? [16:46] OneM_Industries: here's the find command example "find / -name Passwords.odt" [16:46] It just suddenly isn't in my normal spot for it. [16:46] jungleman what's the outcome of cat /etc/issue [16:47] MonkeyDust: Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS \n \l [16:47] akik: Nice, I will keep that in mid as well. === elGALLO is now known as elGALL0 [16:49] MonkeyDust: Any ideas? [16:50] Hello! I'm trying to install ubuntu 14.04 on my lenovo x1 carbon, but after the install had finished it only boots into win === andreas_ is now known as Guest62383 [16:50] windows [16:51] greetings [16:51] When is 16.04 LTS coming out? [16:51] nacc: The link you sent... I come across it during googling awile ago.... [16:51] Hello! I'm trying to install ubuntu 14.04 on my lenovo x1 carbon, but after the install had finished it only boots into windows. I have disabled secure boot. [16:51] I thought it was already out [16:51] cryptomonk: april 21st [16:51] !16.04 [16:51] OneM_Industries: here's a more general one find / -iname "*foo*" [16:51] Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus) will be the 24th release of Ubuntu. It is due to be released on April 21st. Discussion in #ubuntu+1 === qqqqqs is now known as xalias [16:51] nacc: Do you know if there will be new utils from this on the new release? [16:51] oh man 3 days, I'll just wait then [16:52] about to roll out some server and really didnt want to use 14.04 when 16 is so close [16:52] thanks! [16:52] OOH! 3 days to new version! [16:52] Time to back up all the things! [16:52] CRz_: sorry, new utils for what exactly? [16:53] has someone working hiden wiki links : thx [16:53] ncc: unattened installations ofcourse.. :-) [16:54] Is it possible to wipe the bios out when installing Ubuntu? [16:54] I think not [16:54] quandry: don't wipe your bios [16:54] Why not [16:55] quandry: your computer might be unusable after that [16:55] I think I got infected by a buddy -.- [16:55] Bios is a tricky infection.. [16:55] CRz_: ok, so to do unattended installations, you need a pxe server (which you say you have) and a preseed or kickstart file. For preseed files, you can use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cobbler/Preseed for a full NQA example. For kickstart, you should, I guess, use the utility you found? [16:56] It's based on where he used to work, so while it's a suspicion, it's definitely something he could do. I could care less if I wasn't going to use the device, but I am, so I want it wiped if I can. [16:56] is that impossible? [16:57] Okay, rephrase.. What are methods I could use to deal with this if I install Ubuntu? [17:00] quandry wipe what? [17:00] I don't know how else to phrase it other than wiping out a potential bios virus.. [17:00] It's an issue that manufacturers have pledged to update their bios' to prevent.. [17:01] Anyway, if you know I'd be grateful for assistance.. i know that messing with the bios is trouble, but during installation, the bios is what handles the load of things [17:01] quandry and how is that ubuntu related? [17:01] Is there anything I can do? [17:01] Because I'm going to install the OS that's why [17:01] ._. [17:01] I think I've mentioned that multiple times [17:02] Installers have options for partitioning and other things [17:02] yes, so does ubuntu [17:02] I was curious if there were tools during or after the OS install that I could utilize to further purge any influence [17:03] hi guys. I have a problem with my external driver. I've connected to a widnows terminal and after that to the ubuntu one and get an error: Error mounting : Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sdc1" "/media/slack/Unix"' exited with non-zero exit status 13: $MFTMirr does not match $MFT (record 0). Failed to mount '/dev/sdc1': Input/output error NTFS is either inconsistent, or there is a hardwa [17:03] Monkey, i was talking about the Ubuntu Linux installation [17:03] quandry: i think the problem is, if the bios is infected already, there is not much the OS can do to avoid that infection? [17:03] Well, actually I'm asking you that question [17:03] I don't mind using Ubuntu rather than the OS I'm currently using [17:04] Will it solve my issue though? [17:05] quandry: right, sorry, should have been a statement (it was, just masked as a question) [17:05] So, it can't do anything then [17:05] quandry: the OS relies on the BIOS to be somewhat trusted and consistent, aiui [17:05] quandry: well, you need to get your BIOS in order :) [17:05] How.. [17:05] I'm currently on another system that has Ubuntu installed [17:06] not sure, i wonder if reflashing it would help -- it might depend on the nature of the BIOS infection [17:06] is there something I can do to stop abiword from malfunctioning? the cursor jumps around alot, the page margins change without touching them, and text disappears from page without touching that either? any ideas? [17:06] quandry bios questions are not for this channel [17:06] pumice: does it only happen with abiword? [17:06] Monkey get lost [17:06] quandry and stay polite [17:06] nacc: I think that's abit to much... My linux/ubuntu knowledge is lacking.... Would have been nice with a gui to play around with in the beginning. Shall do some more research in to thirdparty provisioning tools instead.... [17:06] it does, I had open office and that was bad too [17:06] Don't shoo people that are seeking help away. [17:07] nacc: That's for you help! :-) [17:07] quandry: MonkeyDust is probably right, though, fixing your BIOS isn't really ontopic for the channel (which is about ubuntu support) -- you might try ##linux [17:07] My question is intrinsically related to Ubuntu as it's the installation I'm currently contemplated [17:07] wait [17:07] contemplating* [17:07] it happens with writing mail in g mail [17:07] If there are tools or methods that people might have a feeling would work, then they'd mention it.. if not the appropriate answer is "don't know, sorry" [17:07] hi guys [17:08] CRz_: installation is (ime) not gui driven; if you're trying to automate installations, you need quite a bit of knowledge ahead of time [17:08] not.. You're in the wrong place "leave" masked with it's not an appropriate topic [17:08] maybe i've done an error with ssh [17:08] Anyway, thanks for the input you've given me [17:08] i appreciate it [17:08] pumice: so i'd expect it to be something else than abiword then :) -- is it your touchpad possibly going crazy (i have that sometimes when my wrist or palm hits it) if a laptop [17:08] where can i see all the terminal commands i 've done? thanks [17:09] it happens using a pc with regular keyboard [17:09] jkdaiiiea982 in ~/.bash_history === jorge_ is now known as Guest83988 [17:09] I thought it was my keyboard or mouse, so I changed them both [17:10] Hello, how i can get ask me again config of the package? i tried to apt-get purge but when install again the package not show again to config a clean and i see "Selecting previously unselected package" ? [17:10] I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty) [17:12] nacc: Yeah... its a learning curv, not quite there yet... know some but... things are best learned the hard way as they say! [17:12] Kurogane: dpkg-reconfigure `package name`, maybe? [17:12] CRz_: sure, i'm around on #cobbler too, if you have questions for that [17:12] hi MonkeyDust , i've opened it, but there are the last [17:13] pumice: does it happen in general (clicks)? anything look odd in `dmesg` output? [17:14] MonkeyDust, the terminal is opened, i must close it? [17:14] nacc: thx, is #cobbler on the same network as this channel? [17:14] it does, yes, im not sure what "dmesg" is? [17:14] nacc, not, i want ask me again as never installed the package [17:14] jkdaiiiea982 less ./bash_history ... how many 'last' commands does it show [17:15] jkdaiiiea982 less ~/.bash_history ... how many 'last' commands does it show <-- correction [17:15] MonkeyDust, i've closed the terminal, now they are [17:16] MonkeyDust, not all :( [17:17] CRz_: yep [17:18] ok :-) [17:18] jkdaiiiea982 ok, open a terminal window and type less ~/.bash_history [17:18] pumice: ok, so i'd expect something might be up with interrupt processing (possibly) or something else more general ... are you uptodate on 14.04? have you tried, by any chance, the latest HWE stack (if able)? [17:19] Kurogane: sorry, not understanding -- you installed once (with some configuration), purged, installed again and it didn't prompt for configuration. Is that correct? [17:19] nacc, yes [17:19] done MonkeyDust [17:20] it works [17:20] jkdaiiiea982 great, you can now scroll up and down ... hit q to quit [17:21] MonkeyDust, do u know ssh commands? i've problem to copy directory in remote raspberrypi [17:22] I believe it is current with update, but I do have a red exclamation point in my tray saying update info is out of date yet the computer software updater says everything is current, i was thinking similar ideas, [17:22] i don't find the directory i've copied in it MonkeyDust [17:22] jkdaiiiea982 i know ssh commands, but not raspberrypi [17:22] what is HWE stack?

I am getting this issue https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/hkHk9w1Z/ for Ubuntu 15.10 [17:59] RalphBa: so a friend of mine has a light control software called e:cue that connects to a LAS server (I believe) which is connected to a butler that controls the light via DMX. this software sends signals down the network using TCP/IP to ignite command to play sound in his RPi. This is done to avoid paying for the sound licence and only sticking to the lights. (continues) [18:00] /lusers is network-wide [18:01] RalphBa: Now this system failed for one of the RPi and I was thinking of setting a separate server-client TCP network to input the RPi with commands for the sound. I tested a tutorial using my LAN connection and worked out fine. I should try with an ethernet now. But I was wondering whether a server can listen to multiple clients simultaneously [18:01] Fuchs true [18:02] Okay, I gotta go. It was nice meeting you all. I'll come back though. [18:03] I have Corel Aftershot pro 1.2.0.7 It has support for openCL.

[18:26] nvidia never worked for me [18:27] well it worked but not at the same level as windows [18:30] wouldnt be surpriced if it has something to do with opengl [18:30] opengl worked very well tbh [18:31] it's just the performance from the cards weren't up to par [18:31] its amazing theyre able to keep up with directx [18:31] they aren't [18:31] they're becoming better [18:31] I'm trying to figure out how to get my computer that has a wireless card connected to the internet.

[18:32] According to this website: http://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2011/09/fixing-broadcom-43xx-wireless-card.html [18:33] It says that I need to install packages using apt-get, but because it's not connected to internet, I need to transfer the packages somehow. [18:33] I'm not exactly sure how to do that.

I've created a new user but this user doesn't have `/sbin` in his $PATH. I understand this is normal, but I want to know what change makes that happen. my default user has a very different $PATH from this new one. it seems like the new user doesn't load `/etc/environment` [18:45] and I can't find much information for how `/etc/environment` is loaded in the boot/login process. === guest is now known as rory [18:47] /etc/environment is read by the pam_env module when you log in [18:48] gerald: so is everything I need to know found in `/etc/pam.d/`?

[18:58] there's nothing specific to my users configuredin there unless it's based off groups? [18:58] In desktop mode works good... i` m typing with a bluetooth keyboard now [19:01] nevermind; fixed it. [19:02] oh! so it looks like /etc/environment is not loading when I switch users using `sudo su - foo` [19:02] hmm [19:07] Zeelot: firstly, don't use sudo *and* su, sudo is enough [19:07] sudo passwd root [19:07] sudo -Hu foo -i [19:07] lol [19:08] !root | scam [19:08] scam: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [19:08] thats nice but i made a root password then [19:09] geirha: hmm so what is the difference in switching users that way? why did that cause the $PATH to be properly defined? [19:10] su will set PATH based on /etc/login.defs [19:10] when would you want to use su? [19:11] HI [19:11] when sudo is not available [19:11] but since ubuntu ships with sudo by default, you never really need su. Many scripts still rely on su though, so it can't be removed [19:12] Zeelot: You'd use su to become a different user and run an application as that user. For instance, as a user allowed to run the mail server or database backend [19:12] right, ok [19:12] genii: No, use sudo for that [19:12] hey. [19:12] sup [19:12] where can I get help with Ubuntu 16.04? [19:13] !xenial [19:13] Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus) will be the 24th release of Ubuntu. It is due to be released on April 21st. Discussion in #ubuntu+1 Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [19:13] Thanks geirha [19:15] geirha: thanks for the info [19:22] so is there anybody administrating a server using a ldap directory to manage domains (bind9) and email addresses (postfix/dovecot) and using a (not self written) gui willing to name his solution? [19:23] cliffer there's also #ubuntu-server [19:26] could someone please have a look at this for me i am having issues with ubuntu on my laptop randomly logging me off [19:26] here is my posted question on askubuntu.com and everything i have came up with so far [19:26] http://askubuntu.com/questions/758748/ubuntu-14-04-4-keeps-logging-me-out === littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmerica [19:28] hi there. i have a 64 bit 14.04 lts install. i just downloaded robomongo and tried to open the tar file using ubuntu software center [19:28] but it bombs with the message [19:28] cpama: .tar is not meant for the software center, it's just an archive. Probably there are instructions when you unpack it === Gill_ is now known as Gill [19:29] Fuchs, actually, no [19:29] i've tried to unzip it [19:29] and run some of the bin files [19:29] but it didn't wor [19:29] so I found this: [19:29] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33233236/unable-to-run-robomongo-sh-using-sh-robomongo-sh-in-ubuntu-14-04 [19:29] seems that someone else was able to open the tar.gz file using software center [19:29] didn't work is not an error message, if you give us an error message, we can probably help [19:29] unlikely, again, .tar is not meant for software center [19:30] if they have a .deb file somewhere, that could be installed via software center (or just dpkg) [19:31] Fuchs i was in the middle of typing the message about when you responded... and then i got distracted. The error just says "/tmp/robomongo-.tar.gz" could not be opened [19:31] <\ni> hang on in your chair. Noob question coming out. [19:31] <\ni> where is the proper place to put a self made program, so all user on the system can access it? [19:31] How does ubuntu move files so fast? I have a 1.5 GB Iso file, which would take windows 15+ seconds to transfer to another location... whereas as soon as you send it to the new location, its pretty much there? [19:31] Fuchs, i tried to search software center for robomongo [19:31] cpama: tar -xf robomongo-version.tar.gz [19:31] but wasn't able t find anything [19:32] Fuchs, so I tried that. it creates folder structure. [19:32] good [19:32] but not obvious from there what to do . i checked the bin folder [19:32] to see what it includes [19:32] then you go into that folder structure and look for either instructions or a binary [19:32] feel free to run a find . inside that folder and give me the result in a pastebin (not in here) [19:32] then I'll look at it [19:33] Guest99289: if the destination is on the same partition, all that is changed is the path to the file. Nothing is actually moved on the disk [19:34] Fuchs, http://pastebin.com/wjaz9nea [19:34] Need help with a landscape install. Getting a persistent error agent-state-info: |- [19:34] failed to retrieve the template to clone: cannot determine cached image URL: cannot determine LXC image URL: cannot determine LXC image URL: failed to get https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/query/trusty/server/released-dl.current.txt [19:34] cpama: good. Go to that folder, then cd bin/ and then ./robomongo [19:34] either that works, or it gives you an error message we can hopefully work with :) [19:34] any ideas? 2 containers fail the others come right up. [19:35] Fuchs, i'm an idiot. I was just typing "robomongo" instead of "./robomongo" [19:35] actually, i should ask why we need that syntax [19:35] ? [19:35] cpama: sure [19:35] how do i assign a name on the irc? it said i failed to identify in time? [19:35] i guess it isn't obvious to the system that I'm talking about the binary in the current folder? [19:36] cpama: ./ says "current directory". Otherwise it checks for something called robomongo in every folder that is in the variable $PATH [19:36] cpama: as $PATH doesn't contain that folder, it has no idea what to run [19:36] cpama: anyway, you can now create a desktop shortcut / launcher to that thing, and run it from wherever you please. Maybe first move it to a place you are happy with it being in [19:36] could someone help me figure out what is going on with my ubuntu.. this is the forum post i posted with my issue and everything i have figured out up tell now but i have reached a wall http://askubuntu.com/questions/758748/ubuntu-14-04-4-keeps-logging-me-out [19:36] Fuchs, ooooooohhhhhhh [19:36] makes sense [19:36] thanks.

I've had xscreensaver crash X before. [20:07] jaythelinuxguy, i used to have that same problem. it has something to do with the video card. all of a sudden while your using the computer it goes to the login screen and you loose your work.. [20:07] In my case it was with intel video when I had that issue [20:08] that might have been it for me to. i did a fresh install and a few other things and that problem went away [20:10] Guys any help on my issue ? how to reinstall my integrated intel graphics ? [20:10] Another thing that can cause an instant X crash for me is using the obmenu app and saving my changes. Simply saving changes in that app is an instant X killer [20:10] you know what I got the initial cups issue resolved [20:10] is it possible to expose the shared printer to multiple subnets? [20:12] @kallo82 apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel [20:12] To reinstall, it's: apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-intel [20:13] jaythelinuxguy: i tried that and i have this, let me pastepin === fginther` is now known as fginther [20:13] http://pastebin.com/bpaw2Qsw [20:13] jaythelinuxguy: http://pastebin.com/bpaw2Qsw [20:14] i [20:15] @kallo82 did you try to install the package it's complaining about? [20:15] @kallo82 did you also try: apt-get -f install [20:16] jaythelinuxguy: never tried any of those, should i ? [20:16] What happens when you run my second command, apt-get -f install === alfonso is now known as Guest86803 [20:17] jaythelinuxguy: i tried and had the same error [20:17] the one i sent you [20:17] What happens when you try: apt-get install xserver-xorg-core [20:18] jaythelinuxguy: http://pastebin.com/9sPt0UZX [20:19] @kallo82: Is this Ubuntu proper, or is this a flavor? [20:19] jaythelinuxguy yes i used sudo apt-get remove gnome-screensaver and it is still doing it [20:19] @Rarda, is xscreensaver running? [20:19] kallo82: are you using any manually added repositories? like ones not for the version of ubuntu you're on? [20:19] ps aux |grep xscreensaver [20:20] anticitizen: this is dell latitude with preinstalled ubuntu [20:20] no xscreensaver is not running [20:20] i just updated --> upgraded the kernel [20:20] ah ok [20:20] @Rarda: I'm not sure, then. I've had that problem myself, and for me, it was xscreensaver causing it [20:20] have you tried reverting back to your previous kernel [20:20] it's not always adviseable to have the most recent [20:21] @kallo82: Is the ubuntu-desktop package installed? [20:21] jaythelinuxguy: yes ubuntu 14.04 === zzen-guy is now known as zen-guy [20:22] @kallo82: Make sure the ubuntu-desktop and its dependencies are installed. It would also be nice to see the dpkg.log from when the botched update ran [20:22] anticitizen: i needed to update the kernel in kernel 3.19 had issues with HDMI and D-SUB ports [20:22] @kall082: Also, did you add any new repositories? [20:23] only teamjava and mozilla [20:23] Kallo82: If you did add any additional repositories, comment them out for now, do an apt-get update, and try to install the xserver packages again === Mike_____ is now known as Mike__ [20:24] jaythelinuxguy: you mean dell repos ? [20:24] @kallo82 are the dell repos the only extra repos added beyond what Ubuntu normally comes with? [20:25] jaythelinuxguy: http://imgur.com/NeLAVKM [20:27] @kallo82: Uncheck everything from the first dell.archive down, and then update your sources. Then try to install the xserver packages again. You can always re-enable the other repos later. One of them is causing your issue [20:27] hi, any idea why strace is not showing file path, but just a pointer (open(0x7fbff244dd04, O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3) (14.04 LTS, amd64) ? [20:27] hey, is the 16.04 release candidate not out yet? [20:27] i thought it was due the other day? [20:28] @kallo82 if for some reason that doesn't solve it, it would be because some package got added to your system from one of those repositories that has a dependency the official repositories can't comply with [20:28] !16.04 | satysin [20:28] satysin: Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus) will be the 24th release of Ubuntu. It is due to be released on April 21st. Discussion in #ubuntu+1 Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [20:28] yeah i know it is due on the 21st but the RC was due on the 14th and isnt out by the looks of it? [20:28] satysin: you didn't read the message. Go to #Ubuntu+1 [20:29] "Discussion in #ubuntu+1" [20:29] yeah I just realised :P [20:29] sorry [20:29] jaythelinuxguy: the same [20:29] jaythelinuxguy: same error message [20:31] @kallo82: I'm not sure which, but some package on your system is requiring a dependency newer than what your Ubuntu version is offering. Whatever package that is, needs to be removed and reinstalled. I'm not sure which, though. It's looking like the Dell PPA or another PPA isntalled an incompatible package on your system [20:31] jaythelinuxguy: maybe this happened because i updated the kernel version ? [20:31] i only updated the kernel and then build-essential [20:32] @kallo82: Where did the updated kernel come from? [20:32] jaythelinuxguy: sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-xenial [20:32] i ran this [20:33] @kallo8w: That very well could have caused it. Why did you upgrade to the xenial kernel on 14.04? [20:34] well that solved some issues with my external monitor , also dell dock didnt work on 13.19 , neither do now [20:34] @kallo82 are you referring to a display link dock? [20:34] yes [20:35] @kallo82: AFAIK, display link drivers haven't been released for the 16.04 kernel yet. Basically to fix this issue, you would want to remove any packages and dependencies installed as part of your kernel upgrade, then reinstall xorg. But since you have some 16.04 packages, you may as well just back up your data and upgrade everything to 16.04 [20:37] i think ill format and restore the manufacture OS , i tried 16.04 a while ago its has some issues with PHP and MySQL [20:37] hello. [20:37] @kallo82: Which issues with mysql? [20:37] jaythelinuxguy: but i could use the dock [20:38] jaythelinuxguy: issues on PHP 5.6 version and connectivity to mysql [20:38] it only supports php 7 [20:38] @kallo82: 16.04 switches MySQL to UNIX socket authentication. If you disable that, it will act like it used to. [20:39] jaythelinuxguy: you mean i should use tcp/ip method ? [20:40] @kallo82: I'm not familiar with your code/environment, but on my end when I was using MySQL, I had to turn off UNIX socket authentication in order to authenticate from other machines, I wasn't sure if you were running into the same thign [20:40] jaythelinuxguy: also i had some issues with fresh ubuntu 16.04 installation (couldnt create swap) [20:41] jaythelinuxguy: i used beta 2 version [20:41] jaythelinuxguy: which i believe its the latest version [20:41] @kallo82: That's a known bug (the swap issue). When you do a fresh install of 16.04, if you use gparted to delete all partitions, then reboot and try your install again, it will work [20:42] @kallo82 your current install CAN be saved though, it will just require uninstalling any package that was installed as a part of your kernel update, then making sure the intel driver and ubuntu-desktop packages and their dependencies are installed. Whether you try that or reinstall depends on how much time you're willing to put into your current install [20:43] jaythelinuxguy: the problem is when i reinstall , i start to have the same issues after the regular update to kernel 3.19 [20:43] jaythelinuxguy: and start to have this issue with lshw and ubuntu is experiencing an internal error [20:44] Which version of 14.04 specifically? 14.04.4? [20:44] jaythelinuxguy: its 14.04 | after regular upodate its 14.4.4 [20:45] jaythelinuxguy: where drama starts to happen === qqqqqs is now known as xalias === Bray90820_ is now known as Bray90820 [20:45] @kallo82: You should always install from the latest point release. So you should install 14.04.4, not from 14.04.0 or whatever you're installing from. Point releases include hardware enablement updates, which are crucial for newer hardware to run properly. [20:46] @kallo82: Or rather, the regular updates leading up to 14.04.4 won't include hardware enablement updates === lvanderpool is now known as mekhami [20:47] @kallo82: To be sure, try a live image of 14.04.4 and see if you have the same issues [20:48] nuit debout [20:49] why does firefox take 50% of my cpy when it starts up [20:50] nuit debout [20:50] ?

[20:59] /var/log/auth.log [20:59] thanks jay [20:59] citizenruin: SSH key authentication only instead of password auth, firewall to only permit certain IPs that you trust to SSH into the system, etc. [20:59] k i already have ssh key and firewall up [20:59] citizenruin: two-factor authentication if you want even more security like I have, though that's usually *not* necessary :P [20:59] citizenruin: i mean finetune the firewall rules - allow port 22 access *only* from trusted IPs. [21:00] two factor would be a interesting project i guess [21:00] citizenruin: and turn off password authentication, permit only SSH key auth, etc. [21:00] citizenruin: and fail2ban is a nice touch too [21:00] okay thanks === ghostcube_ is now known as ghostcube [21:02] Apr 18 15:54:56 Dystopia polkitd(authority=local): Registered Authentication Agent for unix-process:17758:1572285 (system bus name :1.82 [/usr/bin/pkttyagent --notify-fd 4 --fallback], object path /org/freedesktop/PolicyKit1/AuthenticationAgent, locale en_US.UTF-8) [21:02] Apr 18 15:54:59 Dystopia polkitd(authority=local): Operator of unix-session:c2 successfully authenticated as unix-user:citizen to gain TEMPORARY authorization for action org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-units for system-bus-name::1.83 [systemctl stop ssh.service] (owned by unix-user:citizen) [21:02] what am i reading here [21:02] !pastebin | citizenruin [21:02] citizenruin: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

[23:28] nacc: yeah, I can see the .deb files there [23:28] kulelu88: but i don't know why you would want to do what you suggest and not add the PPA, tbh [23:28] hello [23:28] Hello [23:28] kulelu88: ok? so click on it? or c&p and wget/curl/etc [23:28] anyone have any experience securing shared memory [23:28] denlud: Still reading - " [ 167.214102] EXT4-fs (mmcblk1p1): previous I/O error to superblock detected " does not bode well . [23:28] ok folks this is a serious issue that has been plaguing me since I have installed ubuntu about 3 weeks ago [23:28] nacc: can PPAs be trusted? [23:28] my web searches hang untill i restart the web browser or kill/reset dnsmasq [23:28] kulelu88: depends on the PPA -- they aren't supported, obviously, by ubuntu [23:29] Bashing-om: :D yes error isnt a good sign :D [23:29] kulelu88: but d/l and installing a .deb from a PPA is not any safer than adding the PPA itself? [23:29] actually, that is a valid point nacc [23:29] But i try to look positiv forward. I also tried another SD Card. The same thing. [23:29] its as if there is some dns caching going on that is really slow on my computer [23:29] kulelu88: and implicitly trusting the PPA (as a supposition for using the PPA, that is), you might as well get updates from the PPA owner if they publish them [23:29] all browsers? sine0 [23:30] kulelu88: yes [23:30] kulelu88: its not the router or antyhing other boot os is fine, other comps fine,its ubuntu and its web stuff [23:30] hemmmm... what do you mean by web searches? sine0 [23:30] denlud: Will take one with greater experience than I, but for sure need to run a file system check/repair on that device . [23:30] kulelu88: loading a web page [23:31] like ina search or click on a google result [23:31] if i quit the browser and reload it and search it comes up straight away [23:31] I already tried another SD Card. And also install Ubuntu new. [23:31] im constantly quitting firefox to restart it becuase i cant access webpages [23:31] well this may not have anything to do with it, but how much RAM do you use? sine0 [23:31] kulelu88: 32GB [23:31] There must be another stupid thing...

Would you give back a laptop with only 32GB Diskspace? [23:35] Normally Its just a device for work, I have a computer too....but 32GB..Hm... [23:37] is there a nice/simple way to 'see' what extras are installed when I apt-get a certain package to install? [23:38] say I install a package called 'zoo', that has dependencies 'foo', 'boo', 'goo', how can I see that 'zoo' depends on those other packages after installing? [23:38] kulelu88: apt-cache show/showpkg [23:38] kulelu88: apt-cache depends [23:39] so many ways [23:39] *hat tip* [23:40] and there is rdepends for the other way around === bpye_ is now known as bpye [23:40] denlud: 32 gigs will be tight when you install additional applications . ' df -h ; df -i ' to see the space usage . - nut that will not directly address the superblock problems . [23:42] hi all. I was wondering if someone could tell me if it's possible to extend a filesystem partition WITHOUT deleting its data? [23:42] do these apt-cache commands have a python wrapper/lib? [23:43] I have an openstack volume I'm going to extend, and it would be best if I could repartition to use the extra storage without losing the data currently on the volume. [23:44] tds5016: I would say it's a dangerous proposition... [23:44] tds5016: rule of thumb: if you touch partitions or filesystems better have a backup. because if you have on then murphys law wont strike back :) [23:44] I have a backup. [23:44] you could throw all the data into a backup [23:44] I'm just trying to minimize downtime. [23:44] tds5016: you can resize partitions and filesystems when the volume is not mounted. [23:44] yeah, I can unmount the volume. [23:45] tds5016: make 2 backups [23:45] I just need to extend the parititon/filesystem :-) [23:45] and then make sure each backup works [23:45] I don't have enough space to make 2 sadly. [23:45] but kulelu88 you're entirely correct. [23:45] and then download the backup [23:45] Shrinking is much easier done, especially when you have a lot of free space after your data. [23:46] Trying to resize a partition on a production server will give some sysadmins a triple heart-attack [23:46] does anyone have a tutorial for resizing the partition/fs without deleting data? [23:48] hello === v_ is now known as v______ [23:52] I am seeing a lot of stuff on resize2fs... [23:52] but I'm not sure if that's what I should be using... [23:52] can someone at least tell me at a high level what I should be doing? [23:53] tds5016: you can also use gparted, which does the file system and partition resizing automatically. But there's no guarantees.... === prince is now known as King === King is now known as prince [23:59] Rhorse: unfortunately I don't have a GUI [23:59] this would have to be done from cli.
