[00:00] <Rhorse> tds5016: you can dl a copy of system rescue CD, if you have a cd rom. This disk has gparted.
[00:01] <tds5016> I'm using Ubuntu server, and I'm resizing an openstack volume.
[00:08] <Rhorse> there is a cli command to resize volumes - I can't recall what it is....
[00:08] <kulelu88> there should be a few CLI tools available also
[00:10] <tds5016> Rhorse: is it resize2fs?
[00:11] <fifty> yo hello guys. I have a big Problem.
[00:12] <compdoc> well we have a big solution!
[00:13] <b0s3d> hey
[00:13] <fifty> Have downloaded to much porn, now my drive has no more space, what should i do now? Compress them?
[00:15] <b0s3d> i am having some problems with "Blueman Assistant" it says "No adapters found", i have tried a lot of things to be able to make it say that but i don't know how to get further from here. do any one have any experiences with troubles/issues with bluetooth on ubuntu systems? (also running Ubuntu-Mate)
[00:16] <kulelu88> is that a troll? ^^^
[00:16] <fifty> yo then send us an pastebin of ur lspci...
[00:19] <fifty> yo we are waiting b0s3d
[00:19] <b0s3d> oh sorry
[00:19] <fifty> we need that output man
[00:20] <zykotick9> b0s3d: not you.  ;)
[00:21] <b0s3d> http://paste.linux.chat/view/5afd3054
[00:21] <b0s3d> fifty: compressing it? use a browser or get an new hdd/ssd
[00:22] <b0s3d> why compress it?\
[00:22] <b0s3d> you will properly dl more an use more space :P
[00:22] <kulelu88> I believe fifty is a troll
[00:22] <IdleOne> b0s3d: ignore fifty, they are just trying to waste time
[00:23] <b0s3d> IdleOne: cool, noted /ignore fifty wait.. he might actually say something that is ''funny''
[00:24] <b0s3d> did he get ban? eh
[00:24] <IdleOne> he is muted
[00:24] <b0s3d> oh just quiet
[00:24] <b0s3d> cool
[00:25] <zykotick9> b0s3d: if you run "lsusb" do you see anything bluetooth related?  <- i don't see the BT in the "lspci" output, do you?
[00:25] <b0s3d> "dmesg | egrep -i 'blue|firm'" do check if there is an actually device mounted right?
[00:25] <b0s3d> no
[00:25] <b0s3d> i dont
[00:25] <zykotick9> b0s3d: i got nothin'.  good luck.
[00:26] <b0s3d> whats up, meaning?
[00:26] <b0s3d> might it mean that the device is not mounted right?
[00:27] <k1l_> does that device have bluetooth at all?
[00:28] <b0s3d> its a network card mounted at wwan and i am pretty sure its bluetooth, but i can't remember the name right of the device right now, gonna check and be back with results, also to see if i can make it fit in uwb if it is
[00:28] <zykotick9> b0s3d: <sidenote> devices don't get "mounted"  only filesystems are mounted.
[00:28] <k1l_> b0s3d: what shows "rfkill list"?
[00:28] <b0s3d> brb with results
[00:28] <b0s3d> k1l_ nothing
[00:29] <b0s3d> mounted like hardware i mean
[00:29] <b0s3d> any way.. bbl
[00:47] <b0s3d> alright, there was written WPAN on the device
[00:47] <b0s3d> so its bluetooth right?
[00:47] <b0s3d> also: http://paste.linux.chat/view/raw/9fe11e38
[00:47] <b0s3d> sudo service bluetooth status ^
[00:49] <b0s3d> does it tell you something guys?
[00:51] <Shibe> how can I upgrade to mesa 11 without using oibaf ppa?

[01:23] <Soulboy> Hey guys I was going to install my first Linux distro, ubuntu. Is there any difference between ubuntu 15 and 14 apart from cutting edge updates vs long term support? Would using 15 be harder than 14 for a newbie?
[01:26] <Tin_man> Personally I'd go with 14.04, LTS nice stable version
[01:27] <Bashing-om> Soulboy: For a newuser I strongly advocate the Long Term Support release 14.04. There are many changes under the hood between 14.04 and 15.10, however, the use is the same .
[01:27] <Soulboy> Okay! Thank you! :D
[01:27] <Soulboy> Time to dive into my first linux system haha should be fun
[01:27] <Bashing-om> Soulboy: Jump in, the water is fine .
[01:28] <Tin_man> good luck Soulboy
[01:28] <Soulboy> Tyty :P
[01:29] <Tin_man> might check out some websites gearing to 10 things or so after installing ubuntu 14.04.. good helpful tips..
[01:31] <Tin_man> this is a pretty good one here : http://www.webupd8.org/2014/04/10-things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu.html
[01:31] <Tin_man> i've got login's and out's off, oops..
[01:34] <Shibe> guys
[01:34] <Shibe> please help
[01:34] <Shibe> how do i upgrade mesa to mesa 11
[01:34] <Shibe> without using oibaf ppa
[01:35] <Shibe> mesa 10 freezes any game or video i'm watching
[01:35] <Shibe> if i adjust volume or alt tab or exit fullscreen
[01:35] <ursus> Hi, what do you think: is it a good idea to have Ubuntu as a primary OS on a USB stick? I'd like the portability but afraid of heat problems and that the usb stick's lifetime would be shortened.
[01:38]  * nomic wouldn't think it'd be a problem ursus
[01:39] <nomic> just don't cane the filing system
[01:39] <nomic> bigger the better (capacity) .. means that it isn't writing to the same place all the time (trim)
[01:40] <ursus> nomic: I have a 128 Gb thumb drive, usb 3.0
[01:41] <nomic> wow ...
[01:41] <nomic> really - something that size .. you will not have a problem
[01:41] <nomic> running my ubuntu mate on 8gb
[01:41] <nomic> don't forsee problemsd
[01:41] <nomic> ssd
[01:42] <nomic> not ssd 'micro sd'
[01:43] <ursus> some people said that it may have problem with random I/O, I'm not sure what they mean
[01:43] <ursus> and how long do you use it?
[01:43] <nomic> it's reliable
[01:44] <nomic> they do not degrade that quickly
[01:44] <nomic> wow the prices are down now .. 128gb usb = £20 (here)
[01:45] <nomic> 2 year warranty
[01:45] <nomic> if they are offerning a 2 year w arranty with an ssd/flash type device .. they are going to be reliable
[01:45] <ursus> my idea is just have this OS on my usb, customized everything I use (thunderbird, linphone, firefox addons, etc.). The goal is to be able to use the same environment and softwares (with the same settings) at my workplace and at home. For photos, videos I'd just use my home computer.
[01:45] <glazed> hello, new user here, kubuntu 15.10 wifi suddenly dropping / very slow, no issues with other devices on the same network
[01:46] <glazed> if someone could point me in the right direction id be super appreciative
[01:46] <Loshki> ursus: the biggest problem is that thumb drives tend to die unceremoniously & without warning. As long as you're prepared to handle that case, no problem.
[01:47] <ursus> Loshki: why does it happen?
[01:49] <Loshki> ursus: boring technical reasons, and cheap chips. I think a good brand ssd (Samsung evo) in a usb enclosure is a better way to go, though no nearly as compact.
[01:49] <Loshki> ursus: or stick with usb sticks but do tons of backups
[01:51] <ursus> Thanks guys for your answers!
[01:52] <ursus> That's the stick btw: http://gizmodo.com/where-is-the-worlds-smallest-128gb-flash-drive-hiding-a-1708105672
[01:52] <ursus> It heats up very quickly...
[01:53] <citizenruin> <---is looking for the most comprenshive and up to date security guide.
[01:55] <Loshki> ursus: from one of the reviews: "Think of the amount of data you can lose with that size flash drive."
[01:56] <ursus> right :)

[02:49] <binary01> Hi all, I am having trouble with ubuntu 14.04. I left my computer for a while and when I came back it was totally frozen and I needed to do a hard reset. Now it is booting straight to terminal. I am able to get into unity with startx and but it doesnt show the start menu and audio isnt working. does anyone know how to fix this?
[03:14] <Gallomimia> im having a similar problem where my raid seems to be assembling but it doesn't attempt to decrypt the luks container on it..
[03:14] <Gallomimia> also 14.04 and LVM after that. i can't seem to figure out what kinds of startup scripts run to get it there.
[03:40] <citizenruin> anyone know the name of the program that scans tv series for you and tells you if they are availbe torrents
[03:41] <jakelulz666> hello?
[03:41] <citizenruin> couchjunkie or tvscript something
[03:41] <citizenruin> hey whats up lakeluz
[03:43] <citizenruin> what are some other more active channels
[03:43] <citizenruin> why aint this google search bar turning up any results
[03:54] <terratoma> citizenruin: did you web search for 'couchpotato' ?
[03:55] <citizenruin> terratoma: now sir i did not but now that you said that i know thats it i remember from the reddit article i seen today
[03:56] <terratoma> irc cant read your mind.  i would just search in google!
[03:56] <somsip> !illegal | citizenruin (you cant discuss pirating TV shows here - take it to private please)
[04:01] <citizenruin> a rookie question but since i recieved so many warnings from that is it safe to consider it a "unsafe" ppa or the like?
[04:02] <Ben64> citizenruin: all PPAs are 3rd party repositories and don't really have any assurances that they're safe
[04:03] <citizenruin> thanks ben64 is git a safer alternative to ppa's?
[04:05] <Ben64> citizenruin: no
[04:06] <citizenruin> now my pastebinit is not working i think its not allowed by my ufw - man there is alot of maintence with linux - i love it
[04:29] <Trinity> i'm looking for a program or library that will allow me to overlay an image preferably PNG over the monitor
[04:29] <Trinity> so any application will have that PNG overlaid before rendering itself
[04:29] <Trinity> is this possible?
[04:29] <Ben64> that doesn't make sense...
[04:29] <Trinity> essentially it's a watermark but it won't be used as such
[04:33] <citizenruin> what would be the purpose?
[04:33] <Trinity> for example an FPS game you want to add your own custom crosshairs
[04:36] <citizenruin> gotcha
[04:36] <citizenruin> use conky
[04:36] <citizenruin> edit it to always on top
[04:36] <Trinity> citizenruin, awesome :D
[04:36] <Trinity> seems to be exactly what i'm looking for
[04:37] <citizenruin> only charging 99.99 for tonight
[04:37] <citizenruin> and yes thats bitcoins
[04:37] <Bray90820> So for some reason after the software updater ran SMB is unavailable
[04:37] <Bray90820> Or rather samba
[04:38] <citizenruin> thats weird cuz after i updated i got samba

[06:34] <Majora320> Hello
[06:45] <codepython777> I'm running ubuntu 15.10 - and when i run startx, i get a blank screen. If I execute a terminal, there is no window manager - it sticks to the top. What is an easy way to fix this?
[06:45] <fkmdn> is there a way to make boot screen resolution higher? now it is 640x480
[06:45] <codepython777> I can run gnome-panel - but that still gives me no window manager
[06:46] <fkmdn> run "metacity --replace &" or "compiz --replace &"
[06:46] <fkmdn> or run some session manager, it should handle everything
[06:48] <codepython777> fkmdn: Thanks! compiz --replace & works - how do i make sure that i dont have to run it after every startx?
[06:49] <codepython777> fkmdn: its still acting up. If I click on a minimized window on the bottom bar, it does not become visible
[06:49] <fkmdn> why do you use startx in the first place?
[06:49] <codepython777> fkmdn: this is a machine which i mostly use with command line
[06:49] <codepython777> it needs to run X rarely
[06:50] <codepython777> fkmdn: the panel on the top displays, but is not responsive
[06:50] <fkmdn> codepython777, apparently that is "XSESSION=unity startx"
[06:51] <codepython777> fkmdn: so export XSE... in .bashrc?
[06:59] <dylan> whats the best way i can put music on my ipod touch 5 through ubuntu?
[07:00] <dylan> because i want to but im not sure how
[07:00] <somsip> dylan: did you read the link from earlier?

[07:32] <dylan> and i cant hear music on youtube
[07:32] <dylan> how come
[07:32] <dylan> lxde as a de
[07:34] <mikhael_k33hl> Is there any news about network-manager-strongswan 1.3.1 being supported on Ubuntu 14.04?>
[07:38] <dylan> im got a question if i was going to install lubuntu right
[07:38] <dylan> cause im using a macbook pro theres this thing to install the drivers
[07:38] <dylan> like on the cd
[07:43] <dylan> since im running Lxde as a DE can i remove the whole unity desktop etc ?
[07:45] <fkmdn> dylan, yes
[07:45] <dylan> how can i do that?
[07:45] <dylan> isnt it sudo apt-get remove unity-desktop or something like that
[07:46] <dylan> im not sure to be honest
[07:46] <lotuspsychje> dylan: if you like lxde, why not clean install lubuntu right away?
[07:46] <dylan> cause if i do ill have troubles of wireless
[07:46] <dylan> and stuff
[07:47] <dylan> like im certain that my b43 isnt in the cd of lubuntu
[07:47] <dylan> if i install dkms then a restricted thing in pool that allows me as a mac to install the wifi driver
[07:47] <lotuspsychje> dylan: drag n drop the needed driver on usb then, or install lubuntu with cable
[07:47] <lotuspsychje> dylan: if it works on desktop, should work on lubuntu also
[07:48] <dylan> it works with my install of ubuntu
[07:48] <mikhael_k33hl> I think the network-manager of ubuntu is the same regardless of the the DE that you're using.
[07:48] <dylan> so your saying this ubuntu disk i can take the file Pool out and put it say on a usb
[07:48] <dylan> then use that to get my wireless for lubuntu
[07:48] <dylan> ??
[07:48] <dylan> brb

[08:03] <fkmdn> how can i change boot screen resolution? it stucks at 640x480
[08:04] <lotuspsychje> fkmdn: whats the native resolution of your screen?
[08:04] <fkmdn> 1024*768
[08:04] <somsip> fkmdn: what video driver?
[08:05] <fkmdn> somsip, vbox
[08:05] <somsip> fkmdn: have you installed the extras?
[08:07] <fkmdn> extras?
[08:08] <somsip> fkmdn: guest additions
[08:08] <fireman> which boot screen do you mean? fkmd
[08:09] <somsip> fkmdn: or just do this http://askubuntu.com/questions/127851/change-boot-screen-resolution
[08:11] <fkmdn> what a retarded method
[08:13] <lotuspsychje> fkmdn: please keep it polite in here
[08:14] <lotuspsychje> fkmdn: if you really need the proper native resolution, install ubuntu physical not in virtual machine
[08:15] <fkmdn> why there is no normal tools for configuring the bootloader?
[08:16] <fkmdn> if i want to change the default os there, do I need to edit config files manually too?
[08:18] <fireman> did installing ubuntu physical can change boot screen of win 8 whene i make it on second os? coz my win boot screen is shifted after instaling ubuntu 15.10
[08:18] <mcphail> fkmdn: editing files "manually" is the "normal tool". Quick, simple, scriptable and reproducable. There isn't much call to write a GUI app for every simple config task
[08:18] <lotuspsychje> fkmdn: why are you so focused on the boot resolution anyway? you dont like the resolution of your ubuntu desktop after boot?
[08:20] <fkmdn> i don't like resolution changes
[08:21] <stevenm> anyone in here still use the electric sheep?
[08:22] <lotuspsychje> stevenm: ive tested that last year, why?
[08:23] <stevenm> lotuspsychje, the community just seems a bit dead and I can't get it to display a different sheep per screen :S
[08:24] <lotuspsychje> stevenm: it seems like sheep has been rejected out of 14.04 repos also
[08:24] <lotuspsychje> stevenm: perhaps choose another nice xscreensaver one you like?
[08:24] <stevenm> lotuspsychje, their official site still links to this PPA though (even has Xenial).. https://launchpad.net/~ichthyo/+archive/ubuntu/zeug
[08:25] <lotuspsychje> stevenm: well we cant support external ppa's neither :p
[08:25] <stevenm> it works... although I had to modify the screensaver .desktop file to make it work :)  just curious how to get the dual screen working
[08:25] <stevenm> no i no you can't :)
[08:25] <lotuspsychje> stevenm: perhaps their forum or file a new bug on their launchpad?
[08:36] <codepython777> where can i ask questions about 16.04?

[08:39] <tilerendering> hey
[08:40] <tilerendering> I want a user to access (r/w/x) all files within a folder if he explicitly knows their names. I want him also to be able to create directories or files. but I want to prevent him from listing all the files/dirs directly under that folder. is that possible ?
[08:41] <Ben64> tilerendering: no
[08:41] <edos> i think so
[08:41] <tilerendering> hm
[08:42] <tilerendering> so whenever he is able to read files under folder F he will be able to list all files under F ?
[08:42] <tilerendering> (if he can read them all)
[08:42] <edos> yep
[08:42] <tilerendering> hm. I need to prevent him to get a listing of all files under F.
[08:42] <Ben64> why
[08:43] <tilerendering> I have all user profile pics there
[08:43] <tilerendering> and the web server gets granted access to that folder.
[08:43] <edos> hm
[08:43] <tilerendering> I have hashed/randomized the users profile pics filenames
[08:43] <tilerendering> so it becomes almost impossible to guess them
[08:43] <Ben64> so why do people have access to the folder
[08:44] <tilerendering> in order to be able to load the profile pic
[08:44] <Ben64> not making sense
[08:44] <tilerendering> see: when a user gets logged in, the servers api sends him all details of his profile + the path to his profile pic.
[08:44] <tilerendering> his client can then display the pic knowing the path
[08:45] <tilerendering> but a malicious user could - by this means - list all users profile pics
[08:45] <tilerendering> and I want to prevent that
[08:45] <lotuspsychje> tilerendering: then dont store all profile pics in 1 folder
[08:46] <tilerendering> lotuspsychje: sure. but how would this help ? if the server got access to all folders under F under which profile pics are stored, we got the same problem
[08:46] <tilerendering> or dont we =
[08:46] <Ben64> why can the users access things as the webserver
[08:46] <nindustries> Hi, I can't seem to find the public key for GPG D834D91FA49CCDDB . Apt-update fails because of this. --revc-keys does not work. Ideas?
[08:47] <edos> you /set verbose leve;=3
[08:47] <nindustries> ( GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net trusty InRelease: )
[08:47] <tilerendering> Ben64: because the webserver needs to serve them resources. or would you add a linux user for each web app user ?
[08:48] <tilerendering> that would be very unscalable
[08:48] <Ben64> your setup seems very strange
[08:48] <lotuspsychje> tilerendering: doesnt make sense to mix things up for all users neither
[08:48] <lotuspsychje> tilerendering: perhaps the #ubuntu-server guys can help you straight up, what you really need?
[08:49] <tilerendering> the issue would be solved if I could prevent a linux user (namely the web servers user) to list all directories
[08:49] <tilerendering> under F
[08:49] <tilerendering> unless of course you have another good idea
[08:49] <tilerendering> hm. maybe the web server itself can be told not to allow listings of files under F
[08:49] <tilerendering> that would be a way to go
[08:50] <mcphail> tilerendering: you switch off Indexes on that document root in Apache. Then a user won't be able to list the contents of the dir
[08:51] <tilerendering> I just found it. it should be solved at webserver level, yes.
[08:51] <tilerendering> thanks mcphail and everybody
[08:53] <tilerendering> actually, with nginx, indexes are off by default for every location
[08:54] <mcphail> Yes. This is fairly basic stuff, which leads me to worry about the security of your solution. But that conversation would be offtopic here.
[08:58] <tilerendering> anyhow, thx, cya
[09:01] <tilerendering> re
[09:08] <MoL0ToV> xubuntu 16.04 LTS is released with ubuntu 16.04 LTS or is 2 separated release? so xubuntu 16.04 LTS is released same date with ubuntu 16-04?
[09:09] <lotuspsychje> MoL0ToV: join #ubuntu+1 please
[09:25] <dylan> hey guys
[09:25] <rory> ahoy hoy
[09:25] <dylan> im just about to install lubuntu before i do though how can i get wireless driver as im using mac
[09:25] <vorap> Heyy
[09:26] <rory> dylan: What mac?
[09:26] <rory> dylan: I'm 99% sure it Just Works.
[09:26] <dylan> i know wireless will work in ubuntu if pool then dkms then back to pool then restricted then bcm
[09:26] <dylan> but in lubuntu its different
[09:26] <dylan> my macs a 2010 macbook pro
[09:26] <dylan> 7,1
[09:26] <lotuspsychje> dylan: also mention your b43 chipset
[09:27] <dylan> how i get the chipset?
[09:27] <dylan> oh the thing
[09:27] <dylan> its a bcm4322
[09:27] <lotuspsychje> dylan: you said this morning it was a broadcom right
[09:27] <dylan> yeah its broadcom bcm4322
[09:28] <lotuspsychje> dylan: cable on + updates during setup + 3rd party software enabled
[09:29] <dylan> ahh dont have acess to cable atm
[09:29] <lotuspsychje> dylan: can check the iso/usb stick for that b43 driver also perhaps
[09:29] <dylan> the b43 driver is in ubuntu
[09:29] <dylan> but not in lubuntu
[09:29] <vorap> dylan: What about an external wifi usb stick?
[09:29] <dylan> nah dont got one
[09:30] <lotuspsychje> dylan: its recommended to enable internet during setup
[09:30] <dylan> well when i installed ubuntu it had a b43 driver in its cd
[09:30] <dylan> in lubuntu thats a different story
[09:30] <dylan> so unless i can copy that b43 driver to a usb
[09:30] <dylan> or something
[09:30] <lotuspsychje> dylan: i told you this morning you could backup that driver
[09:31] <dylan> ill tell you what let me go get my ubuntu 14.04.3 cd and ill put the pool file from that on a usb
[09:32] <dylan> could that work?
[09:33] <Ben64> very doubtful
[09:33] <vorap> Ben64: Yeah, I would say so
[09:33] <Ben64> if ubuntu works... install ubuntu?
[09:33] <dylan> omg this is the ubuntu cd that didnt get complete
[09:33] <dylan> ahh gonna have to get a fresh copy ubuntu
[09:34] <vorap> Install ubuntu, then you could just install LXDE instead of the unity desktop
[09:35] <hateball> !info lubuntu-desktop
[09:36] <dylan> question
[09:36] <vorap> Yes
[09:36] <dylan> you know how ubuntu ships with ubuntu-desktop or something like that
[09:36] <dylan> could i just remove that and make it boot as lxde de?
[09:37] <vorap> As far as i can remeber yea, you can
[09:37] <vorap> You have to install ubuntu first, with the unity desktop
[09:37] <Ben64> you don't even need to remove it, you can just add lubuntu-desktop
[09:37] <vorap> Ben64 dylan: Yea
[09:37] <dylan> im installed ubuntu as the os
[09:37] <dylan> so i can just type sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop?
[09:38] <vorap> No
[09:38] <lotuspsychje> installing ubuntu-desktop and then uninstalling unity is a bad idea
[09:38] <dylan> ohh
[09:38] <dylan> hmm ok
[09:38] <Ben64> just... install lubuntu-desktop
[09:38] <dylan> ok
[09:38] <dylan> thank you
[09:38] <vorap> Do sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
[09:38] <vorap> No problem
[09:39] <dylan> then do i just log out and log back in
[09:40] <vorap> dylan: I think so, and then you should be able to choose your environment from the login screen
[09:40] <dylan> ok thanks
[09:40] <dylan> :)
[09:40] <vorap> No problem :)
[09:43] <Cablegunmaster> question; switching between windows seems sluggish in my ubuntu mate, how to diagnose the culprit?
[09:43] <Cablegunmaster> I sometimes haveto click multiple times on a window before it response xD
[09:44] <vorap> Cablegunmaster: Hmm, does it feel sluggish when you use Alt + Tab?
[09:44] <Cablegunmaster> nope
[09:44] <Cablegunmaster> Alt tab seems fine
[09:45] <vorap> That's weird
[09:45] <vorap> Wait a sec
[09:48] <Cablegunmaster> vorap, thing Is I have to click multiple clicks before it reacts on my windows
[09:48] <Cablegunmaster> trying to get rid of the 'extra' clicks I have to do.
[09:48] <vorap> Cablegunmaster: Do you have a different window manager installed? Such as Compiz Window Manager?
[09:48] <Cablegunmaster> yesh
[09:48] <Cablegunmaster> I got the compiz window manager installed
[09:49] <vorap> It's very plausible that compiz is causing this to happen
[09:50] <Cablegunmaster> thanks , got it it was the polling on the mouse, that made his happen XD
[09:50] <vorap> Ooh
[09:50] <vorap> XD
[09:50] <Cablegunmaster> kinda doing the opposite as polling supposed to do
[09:50] <Cablegunmaster> I kept clicking 3 times before it would respond to anything xd
[09:50] <vorap> XD
[09:51] <vorap> What mouse do you have?
[09:51] <Cablegunmaster> logitech G100's
[09:51] <vorap> Okay, good to note incase someone has the same problem xD, well I'm glad it worked out xP
[09:52] <Cablegunmaster> weirdly, I wouldnt have thought about it xd
[09:52] <Cablegunmaster> yay my os feels more stable thx vorap :3
[09:52] <akik> Cablegunmaster: how did you actually fix it?
[09:52] <Cablegunmaster> I disabled the polling
[09:52] <akik> where?
[09:53] <Cablegunmaster> in compiz settings manager under utility I saw 'mouse position polling'
[09:54] <Cablegunmaster> and clicked on it , and unchecked the 'enable mouse position polling'
[09:54] <dylan> hey:)
[09:54] <vorap> dylan! Did it work?
[09:54] <dylan> lubuntu-desktop yeah works:)
[09:54] <dylan> how can i uninstall that gnome flashback thingy
[09:54] <dylan> or whatever it is
[09:55] <akik> ok thanks didn't know that kind of setting
[09:55] <vorap> dylan: Sorry? Could you explain what problem you have?
[09:55] <Cablegunmaster> no problem akik, for me it was just more trouble as the setting would help.
[09:55] <Cablegunmaster> so its better to disable it in my case.
[09:55] <dylan> i was saying how can i uninstall gnome flashback or whatever it is
[09:57] <vorap> Oh gothca. I think that this should work: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop unity && sudo apt-get autoremove
[09:57] <vorap> I think
[09:57] <fireman> why my computer often freeze when browsing with firefox and watch a video? I use intel graphics and ubuntu 15:10
[09:58] <vorap> fireman: Are you useing Xserver display driver?
[09:59] <fireman> vorap: i am is new ubuntu user, i dont understand what you say
[10:00] <vorap> fireman: Okay, if you click the ubuntu icon in the top left and search for driver manager
[10:02] <fireman> nothing shown, i try to looking for additional driver in system setting and then i got message

[10:02] <fireman> using micro processor microcode
[10:03] <fireman> firmware for Intel CPUs from intel-microcode
[10:04] <vorap> fireman: Does it say something else in that message box?
[10:05] <fireman> i am sorry that is not message but "the device is using an alternative driver"
[10:06] <fireman> and i can choose what to computer doing with the device, using processor bla bla bla or do not use the device
[10:08] <Cablegunmaster> still have the feeling my mouse is slowish xD.
[10:08] <vorap> fireman: Hmm, did you recently update your system?
[10:08] <Cablegunmaster> have to keep investigating xD
[10:08] <fireman> when system updater ask me to update i always say yes
[10:08] <vorap> Cablegunmaster: xD Keep looking in Compiz Mouse section, god knows what you might find
[10:09] <vorap> Okay, do you experience this freezing often?
[10:09] <vorap> fireman:
[10:11] <fireman> all the time, at least once a day
[10:11] <vorap> Has it always been like this? If not, when did you first start seeing it?
[10:14] <fireman> from first time i instaling ubuntu as second os, this is This is always the case even when the initially suspend i cant return
[10:15] <fireman> i mean its always happen from first time i install ubuntu
[10:15] <fireman> sorry for my english
[10:15] <vorap> fireman: No problem½
[10:17] <vorap> fireman: Does it happen in every single program? Or just in firefox and movie player?
[10:18] <fireman> also happen when suspend in a long time
[10:19] <vorap> fireman: Are you on a laptop?
[10:20] <fireman> and if that happen, i cant do anything, ctrl+sysrq+reisub not give me something
[10:20] <fireman> yes, asus X200MA, ram 4 gb, intel graphic
[10:20] <akik> fireman: isn't that alt+sysrq ?
[10:21] <vorap> fireman: If you plug the computer into an outlet, does it still happen?
[10:21] <fireman> vorap: outlet?
[10:21] <vorap> A power outlet
[10:22] <vorap> Soryy
[10:22] <vorap> A power "hole", in the wall
[10:22] <xyberpix> socket?
[10:22] <vorap> xyberpix: Thank you!
[10:22] <xyberpix> :-)
[10:22] <fireman> i run the laptop with power plug in all day
[10:23] <vorap> fireman: Okay, press CTRL + ALT + T
[10:23] <vorap> A terminal window should pop up
[10:23] <fireman> okey
[10:24] <fireman> its terminal
[10:24] <vorap> Nice! Hold on a second
[10:27] <vorap> fireman: If you type "sleep 1; xset s active" Then your computer should suspend. When you wake it up, does it lag then?
[10:27] <fireman> ill try
[10:29] <fireman> nothing happen, "xset: unknown option active"
[10:29] <vorap> Oh sorry, It's supposed to be sleep 1; xset s activate
[10:30] <fireman> sleep 1(one)? or l(el)?
[10:30] <EriC^^> 1
[10:30] <EriC^^> one
[10:31] <fireman> no lag, wake up with normal condition
[10:31] <vorap> Okay
[10:32] <vorap> fireman: Try running "sleep 1; xset dpms force off" And wake it up from that, does it lag then?
[10:32] <lotuspsychje> hi EriC^^
[10:32] <EriC^^> hi lotuspsychje
[10:33] <fireman> vorap: done, whats then?
[10:33] <fireman> no lag
[10:33] <vorap> Okay
[10:34] <vorap> Wait a sec
[10:36] <vorap> I am thinking that it has something to do with Display Power Management in xorg, could I get someones second opinion on this?
[10:37]  * alkisg thinks that fireman should read this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend
[10:38] <fireman> vorap: thx a lot for the attention, i appreciate that :-D
[10:38] <alkisg> Suspend issues are hard to troubleshoot
[10:39] <vorap> fireman: No problem, I am really interessed in what could be causing this problem. :)
[10:39] <alkisg> Usually, bad kernel drivers
[10:39] <vorap> alkisg: That's true :/
[10:40] <vorap> alkisg: Thanks for the help!
[10:40] <fireman> i was experience suspend issue, that cant return when monitor dim while suspend, i fix that with some tips from askubuntu
[10:41] <vorap> Could you post a link to the thread?
[10:42] <fireman> no i just read someone who has same issue
[10:43] <vorap> Okay, hmm I'm sorry but I don't think that I can help you with this one. Sorry :(

[10:51] <boomernang> hi. I have a computer here with a 120GB SSD and a 1TB HDD. I want to install Ubuntu onto the SSD and have say /storage for the 1TB. How do i go about this? Any links to read? Does the SSD need any post install tweaking?
[10:52] <denisse> HI?
[10:52] <lotuspsychje> boomernang: bios needs to be set ide to ahci
[10:52] <denisse> YES
[10:52] <lotuspsychje> denisse: stop using this channel for general chat
[10:53] <lotuspsychje> boomernang: what brand is your ssd please?
[10:53] <mcphail> boomernang: you can just set that up from the installer. There will be an option to pick how you want to arrange things, rather than following the defaults. Another option would be to use bcache, which would use your SSD as a cache for your HDD. But that's trickier to set up
[10:53] <denisse> Why? I haven't got friends :(
[10:53] <vorap> Thank you!
[10:55] <alakx> so in 2 days xenial will go out of beta ?
[10:55] <boomernang> lotuspsychje: Kingston
[10:55] <boomernang> thanks mcphail
[10:55] <popey> alakx: yes
[10:56] <alakx> nice.
[10:56] <denisse> hello, sorry
[10:56] <lotuspsychje> boomernang: some ssd's need a firmware upgrade, check their website if its up to date, before you install ubuntu
[10:56] <denisse> now i'm going to be a best person
[10:57] <denisse> anyone play LOL?
[10:57] <boomernang> lotuspsychje: hmm ok thanks
[10:57] <Cablegunmaster> vorap , think my mouse is dying.
[10:57] <Cablegunmaster> which is a viable option xd.
[10:57] <vorap> Cablegunmaster: Noooo :(
[10:57] <vorap> Cablegunmaster: Are you sure?
[10:57] <popey> denisse: stop!
[10:58] <Cablegunmaster> im hiv negative, but still positive it might be
[10:58] <vorap> Just add her to your ignore list
[10:58] <vorap> Cablegunmaster: XD,  Have you tried your mouse in another pc?
[10:58] <hateball> vorap: That doesnt really make the situation better for anyone else in her trying to get/provide help. There's a reason there's an offtopic channel
[10:59] <Cablegunmaster> well second mouse button seems to work right xd
[10:59] <Cablegunmaster> so I think my lefty mouse button is slowly dying
[10:59] <akik> boomernang: there's a stage in the installer where you can set the destination drives. there's a selection "something else" in which you can select your drives and partitions
[10:59] <vorap> hateball: That's true
[11:00] <vorap> Cablegunmaster: But have you tried using your mouse with another pc?
[11:00] <vorap> !afk
[11:00] <Cablegunmaster> vorap, I haven't but I am not whoring my mouse around should I ;)?
[11:00] <boomernang> akik: what happens with permissions at that stage? (sorry, newbie here) i dont want root to own the partition
[11:01] <boomernang> akik: or is it best to have root own it?
[11:01] <mcphail> boomernang: you can change the permissions to whatever you desire after the install
[11:03] <boomernang> ok. thanks guys
[11:07] <akik> why wouldn't you want root to own the partition? it's been like that from the beginning of time :)
[11:08] <Ben64> if the partition is for you to store stuff, you can own it
[11:09] <citizenruin> when using fail2ban should i edit jail.conf or should i edit but provide customizations in jail.local file,
[11:09] <citizenruin> #           or separate .conf files under jail.d/ directory, e.g.:
[11:09] <akik> oh he was talking about the data partition

[11:44] <gahan> I'm using xenial and I need mongo 3.2.5, so I'm mongodb's ppa to download it. Only has an upstart script while I understand ubuntu uses systemd. There's not /etc/init.d/mongo script. Any suggestions?
[11:48] <mcphail> gahan: you'll need to discuss that with the PPA maintainer
[11:51] <vorap> I'm back
[11:55] <gahan> systemctl enable mongod.service
[11:56] <Spinrad> Hi, ubuntu serveur, 14.0.4, if i upgrade samba 2:3.6.25 -> 2:3.6.3-2 my windows 7 clients can not authentificate themselves anymore. Did anybody had ever heard of this kind of problems ?
[12:02] <gahan> does upstart cans till work on Xenial?
[12:11] <stevenm> is xenial systemd like debian 8?
[12:12] <stevenm> ah as of 15.04 i think
[12:28] <alakx> citizenruin, you should edit jail.local file

[12:36] <Eragera> !help I was trying to update my system today but got 'E: GPG error: http://mega.nz ./ InRelease: Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NODATA' (does the network require authentication?)'
[12:36] <Eragera> Any fix for it?
[12:36] <Eragera> Using Xubuntu 14.04
[12:38] <citizenruin> how did you pull from mega.nz
[12:38] <Eragera> Frankly, I dont remember, it was months ago
[12:38] <citizenruin> seems like that is a password protected download eragera
[12:39] <Eragera> Oh, another thing I got was this 'E: GPG error: http://mega.nz ./ Release: The following signatures were invalid: NODATA 1 NODATA 2'
[12:39] <networkeron> Hello everyone!
[12:40] <Eragera> After trying to update after a restart. AskUbuntu said to reset Software and Updates > Authentication back to defaults, which I did
[12:40] <Eragera> after which I got the error stated above again
[12:41] <networkeron> I bought Asus ux303 with preinstalled Windows 10. I would like to install Ubuntu but without destroying Windows instance and recovery feature (for the future pursposes). Is it possible? Is there any online tutorial that can helps me?
[12:42] <EriC^^> networkeron: the recovery feature usually won't work after you repartition the hdd
[12:42] <EriC^^> networkeron: it's better if you make a recovery usb or dvd from it, you can still manually do a recovery too, it's more involved though, fwiw
[12:42] <citizenruin> networkeron: i would make a backup of your grub and win10 and then save them offsite incase you ever wanted to go back you can jsut load those backups in a VM
[12:44] <networkeron> EriC^^: citizenruin: thanks for your advices
[12:44] <citizenruin> hey man take mine with a grain of salt cuz im newer then you lol
[12:46] <Louis__> bonjour je voulais savoir si c'est possible d'installer bspwm sous ubuntu ?
[12:47] <EriC^^> !fr | Louis__
[12:48] <citizenruin> eric^^: does that translate automatically for you with that command?
[12:48] <EriC^^> citizenruin: yeah
[12:48] <EriC^^> it tells the user how to join the ubuntu french channel
[12:49] <citizenruin> cool
[12:50] <citizenruin> yesterday i setup ssh - three hours later i was already getting ssh scanned from china - setting up failtoban now - should i cover just my ssh or should i do all (plex ssh whatever else i add)
[12:51] <hateball> citizenruin: Running sshd on a non-default port is a good start. fail2ban is also good.
[12:51] <Eragera> So should I just remove Mega from the update list and carry on?
[12:51] <citizenruin> hateball: i can just pick any port or should i set up port knocking to a strange port also
[12:52] <citizenruin> yes eragera: sorry forgot all about your question
[12:52] <Eragera> Ah dont worry about it. Just the fact that Ill have to use an old version till its fixed is annoying
[12:52] <citizenruin> you should be able to find a defualt list for xubuntu and just save your current one load the defualt one then maybe add the additional stuff you want one ppa at a time
[12:53] <citizenruin> what application was it anyways
[12:53] <Eragera> MegaSync
[12:54] <citizenruin> idk man to be honest the only time i used mega was downloading stuff for "hacking" = 'scriptkiddie"
[12:54] <citizenruin> you might be better off with out it
[12:55] <Eragera> Well, I use it to sync my music. I share my library with a few people, so I need to have it updated constantly. I guess the old version wouldn't be so bad, until ofc they introduce something new which is required....
[12:56] <zarisha> what music do you like eragera?
[12:56] <citizenruin> look at plex media server eragera
[12:57] <citizenruin> its what you need i think
[12:57] <maddawg1> i use plex
[12:57] <Eragera> I like J-pop, mostly. Also, what is a Plex Media server? Ill look it up, but I dont think windows users would be able to configure it
[12:57] <maddawg1> love it
[12:58] <maddawg1> tho i will say Emby is giving it a run for it's money
[12:58] <maddawg1> (formarly Media Browser)
[12:58] <citizenruin> plex works multi systems
[12:58] <zarisha> cool eragera
[12:58] <Eragera> Ah I see. Thanks for the tip. Will look into it.
[12:58] <zarisha> j-pop is cool
[12:58] <citizenruin> i got it on linux box ruko 3 tablets xbox smart tv and 2 phones
[12:59] <citizenruin> plex.tv i think it is
[13:04] <citizenruin> for ban time can i put say 9999999999 to make it forever - in failtoban jail.conf
[13:05] <citizenruin> jail.local sorry
[13:05] <EriC^^> !fail2ban
[13:05] <citizenruin> lol im sorry man still my first cup of coffee
[13:06] <EriC^^> thought there might be a wiki or guide about it
[13:06] <citizenruin> oh i thought you were correcting my spelling
[13:06] <somsip> citizenruin: http://serverfault.com/questions/415040/permanent-block-of-ip-after-n-retries-using-fail2ban
[13:06] <citizenruin> thanks somsip:
[13:06] <somsip> citizenruin: looks like it's just using the max int (or similar) F2B will recognise
[13:07] <somsip> citizenruin: though the -1 suggestion seems to work on some versions
[13:08] <citizenruin> i was looking at having a script read the log and perma ban , but that bantime = -1 looks way better
[13:09] <citizenruin> do any of you make a living from working with linux?
[13:12] <citizenruin> i just a revelation.
[13:13] <citizenruin> playing with linux is like cheating in c&c red alert
[13:14] <citizenruin> i just rememebred editing the config files to make my guys move faster and live longer for that game
[13:14] <somsip> citizenruin: you're getting offtopic now...

[13:30] <UbuntuDude> guys what is the simplest photo editor for linux/ubuntu? something just to do simple editing like selection and removing unwanted parts of pictures
[13:30] <Guest74837> UbuntuDude: pinta is easy
[13:30] <dn5> UbuntuDude: Gimp
[13:31] <xyberpix> +1 for Gimp
[13:31] <Guest74837> UbuntuDude: kind of like Paint for Windows
[13:31] <Pici> dn5: er, well you'd just issue a kill command with the signal you want to send and your pid, i.e.: kill -USR1 $(pidof yourapp)
[13:31] <xyberpix> If you're using it for photo's though, try Shotwell
[13:32] <UbuntuDude> dn5: no gimp is not simple
[13:32] <dn5> UbuntuDude: if that ain't simple I don't know what is
[13:33] <Pici> gimp is photoshop-like
[13:33] <dn5> Pici: now you gonna tell me photoshop is hard?
[13:33] <UbuntuDude> Guest74837: tried to install pinta and got .. Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[13:33] <Pici> dn5: its not for everyone.
[13:34] <dn5> Pici: If you can't learn two-three menu operations to copy/paste layers, then I'm not sure if you are literate enough to use computer.
[13:34] <UbuntuDude> dn5: I'm not compared to your high IQ
[13:34] <UbuntuDude> so yes gimp and photoshop are too hard
[13:35] <Pici> UbuntuDude: anyway, are you already installing something? if so, you need to wait for that to stop. or perhaps you didn't use sudo with your command.
[13:35] <dn5> Then why did you ask? If you are not determed enough to do the editing yourself, pay for it and someone will.
[13:36] <Pici> Lets move on...
[13:41] <UbuntuDude> dn5: appartently you don't know what you're talking about if you think gimp and photoshop are just two-three menu operations .. have you ever heard of the word permutations and exponential growth? well that's what happens when you real math of those two-three menus
[13:42] <dn5> wat?
[13:42] <UbuntuDude> Guest74837: Pinta works as magic .. thank you

[14:01] <edlinde> hi guys, I just mounted an external hdd from one usb port.. I want to be able to tar gzip the contents of a certain folder, and write them to another USB external drive
[14:01] <edlinde> is there a way I can directly create this tar gzip file on the second drive?
[14:01] <edlinde> I don't have enough disk space on my laptop to first generate the tarball and then copy it over to the second usb drive
[14:02] <edlinde> any ideas?
[14:03] <hateball> edlinde: use full path
[14:03] <edlinde> meaning?
[14:04] <hateball> edlinde: like tar czf /media/whatever/tarball.tgz /path/to/stuff/you/tar
[14:04] <phil42> /home/user/directory/fullpathfilename
[14:04] <edlinde> ah ok
[14:05] <hateball> or cd to where you want it to be put... but using full paths is better imo. no risk of confusion
[14:05] <edlinde> ok
[14:05] <edlinde> thanks
[14:07] <nanaasar> which one of y'all uses vagrant?
[14:07] <ubuntu456> hi. What is working solution to create a persistent usb install ? Is there any guide to do it on the command line myself instead of using a  tool ? otherwise what tool still work today ? with 16.04
[14:09] <trijntje> !16.04 | ubuntu456
[14:09] <JH151> nanaasar: I use Vagrant
[14:09] <nanaasar> thank God
[14:10] <JH151> There are 10's of us!
[14:10] <calebebatista> bom dia
[14:11] <nanaasar> JH151 my problem is i have vagrant running but i cant access file i download on to my vagrant... it seems to be a permission problem
[14:11] <JH151> nanaasar: Are you connected to the vagrant box?
[14:12] <nanaasar> yes
[14:14] <JH151> nanaasar: Can you give a little more information? What OS's are at play, what file was downloaded and using what, what does ls -l give you and what user are you running as
[14:14] <nanaasar> JH151: i use wget to download a zip file on github but i cant extract it... when i use tar xvf and press tab... it doesnt auto complete it like theres no file there... but when i (ls) i see the file
[14:14] <JH151> nanaasar: What user are you running as?
[14:15] <nanaasar> -rw-r--r-- 1 root   root   15014 Apr 19 12:54 master.zip
[14:15] <JH151> Whats your current user?
[14:15] <nanaasar> i dont get it
[14:16] <JH151> At the start of the command prompt you have <something>@<vagrant>
[14:16] <JH151> What is the <something>
[14:16] <nanaasar> vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64
[14:16] <JH151> Ok
[14:16] <JH151> sudo chown vagrant:vagrant master.zip
[14:16] <JH151> Run that
[14:17] <JH151> You should be able to run the tar command now
[14:17] <nanaasar> alright
[14:20] <nanaasar> JH151: still the same or should i restart vagrant?
[14:21] <nanaasar> JH151 here is it now -rw-r--r-- 1 vagrant vagrant 15014 Apr 19 12:54 master.zip
[14:22] <JH151> nanaasar: Cool, instead of tar use unzip see: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/146206/why-cant-tar-extract-zip-files
[14:24] <nanaasar> JH151L thanks... its now working

[14:40] <Facecrack> is there any way to get updated packages for ubuntu server 14.04?
[14:41] <auronandace> Facecrack: if you mean newer versions then maybe you can check backports
[14:41] <auronandace> !backports | Facecrack
[14:42] <JH151> nanaasar: Depends on how you set your networking up. Run 'ifconfig' and look at eth0 that will tell you
[14:42] <Facecrack> auronandace, it shows this deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[14:42] <Facecrack> which is already enabled on my sources.list
[14:43] <nanaasar> yeah i did that and it came up with 10.0
[14:43] <Facecrack> but apt-get is still installing 1.7.2 for cups
[14:43] <Facecrack> instead of version 2.x
[14:43] <JH151> nanaasar: Take a read of this doc page, it will help you out :) https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/getting-started/networking.html
[14:44] <Pici> Facecrack: Then no one has backported it.
[14:44] <Facecrack> D:
[14:44] <brainwash> !16.10
[14:44] <Pici> Facecrack: You might be able to find a PPA, but as always ymmv.
[14:44] <Facecrack> sigh
[14:44] <Facecrack> as it is with all of linux
[14:44] <Facecrack> my mileage always varies
[14:44] <lotuspsychje> !codenames | brainwash
[14:46] <nanaasar> JH151: so does it mean i should use scp file.txt vagrant@ip address:~ or scp file.txt vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64@ip address:~
[14:47] <JH151> nanaasar: vagrant@localhost -p 2222 is what you want
[14:49] <nanaasar> JH151: i want to send a file from my machine to my vagrant
[14:52] <JH151> nanaasar: Yeah you use localhost because it forwards a port

[15:31] <Vert> Do you already own the game?
[15:31] <Vert> @topirate Have you bought this game yet?
[15:31] <TAFB2> i compiled nginx on 15.04 and it runs if I run /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx but how do I get it to load on boot?? :(
[15:32] <lotuspsychje> TAFB2: 15.04 is end of life
[15:32] <teward> TAFB2: by not using nginx 15.04
[15:32] <topirate> I wanna buy it online
[15:32] <Vert> @topirate using Steam or no?
[15:32] <teward> TAFB2: we don't support 15.04.
[15:32] <TAFB2> if it's a vps/server is it safe to upgrade it to 15.10?
[15:33] <Pici> TAFB2: It should be.
[15:33] <Pici> TAFB2: But as always, you should have backups in case things go pear shaped.
[15:33] <TAFB2> i'm getting ready for a big streaming event from thursday to sunday so perhaps I'll upgrade it next week :(

[15:34] <Doyle> Hey. Does anyone have issues with Chrome freezing every day, or at best every other day under 14.04? It freezes, nearly entirely, but if you wait a long time tabs will switch. The menu button still works, so you can hit exit and restart it.
[15:34] <lotuspsychje> Doyle: perhaps start chrome from terminal, see what kind of errors you encounter?
[15:35] <Vert> I second that. I believe Chrome also has a built in task manager to see what specifically is using all the CPU/mem.
[15:36] <DeakinH> 嗯
[15:37] <vacho> how do I install memcache on ubuntu? not memcache(d)
[15:37] <Doyle> Thanks lotuspsychje , Vert - running from cli is a good idea.
[15:38] <Doyle> The task manager reveals nothing. :/
[15:38] <somsip> vacho: you mean the PHP extension?
[15:38] <nacc> vacho: what somsip said, what do you mean by "memcache"?
[15:38] <vacho> somsip: yes
[15:39] <somsip> !ingo php-memcache | vacho
[15:39] <somsip> !ingo php5-memcache | vacho
[15:39] <vacho> trying to get a web app running and it requires memcache, I installed memcached apparently.
[15:39] <somsip> !info php5-memcache | vacho
[15:39] <Vert> @doyle also consider using that built in task manager in Chrome might show you a specific website you visit that is abusing your memory or CPU.
[15:41] <le_pig> If my organization already has an internal repo mirror, is it possible to add our own .debs to a separate "section" to advertise internally? I've read some docs, but it's just a bit unclear.
[15:41] <lotuspsychje> !repo | le_pig
[15:42] <nacc> le_pig: i'm not sure it's that trivial to add a new section (i assume you mean component like universe, multiverse)?
[15:42] <le_pig> lotuspsychje: thank you
[15:43] <Doyle> Vert, Yea, I looked for that. There's the usual suspects, gmail, mesos, but other than that nothing too bad. There's a lot of overhead in resources here.
[15:44] <le_pig> nacc: yeah, that would be the goal: A component like my_org with my_org.deb advertised when clients poll our repo mirror for updates via apt.
[15:44] <nacc> le_pig: there are also private PPAs for commercial subscribers of ubuntu (per https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA)
[15:44] <nacc> le_pig: which would be roughly what you describe, I think
[15:45] <le_pig> nacc: That's fantastic.  I believe I completely misunderstood the purpose of those PPAs. Thank you for pointing that out. I've got some reading to do. :)
[15:45] <nacc> le_pig: i think the point of private ppas is to not let them show up in searches / be advertised to anyone you don't want :)
[15:45] <nacc> le_pig: as opposed to the general PPAs lp users get, which aren't restricted in who consumes them
[15:46] <le_pig> nacc: That would be a benefit for us.  This is all good info. Thank you very much for your help.
[15:46] <nacc> le_pig: np, gl!

[15:59] <EriC^^> i have it on, never experienced it though
[16:00] <EriC^^> i thought that was just for when you unplug the laptop

[16:26] <Malsasa_> curlyears: hello. Are you sure there is no data wipe? If the partitions are there, basically you can boot your Ubuntu manually from GRUB prompt.
[16:27] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: wich software doesnt show where?
[16:27] <curlyears> Ma;sasa:  excuse, please?   This is a fresh oinstall
[16:28] <curlyears> how do you mean "data wipe"
[16:28] <lotuspsychje> Maesh: port what?
[16:28] <Maesh> ubuntu touch
[16:29] <lotuspsychje> !touch | Maesh
[16:29] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: any newly installed application doesn't show in the Unity panel, regardless of whether I install it via a deb package or from the command line
[16:29] <ThePendulum> via apt-get that is
[16:29] <Maesh> ok thanks
[16:29] <ThePendulum> I shouldn't say any, -some- don't
[16:29] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: wich package would this be?
[16:29] <ThePendulum> well so far Skype, Puddletag and the compiz config settings manager
[16:29] <ThePendulum> They do show up after a restart/logout
[16:30] <ThePendulum> I don't remember if killing unity helped
[16:30] <ThePendulum> but either way I don't want to have to do that every time I install something :P
[16:30] <Magentium> Hey Ubuntu peoples! Anyone here able to assist with some Questions in RE to the Ubuntu 16.04 Release??
[16:30] <ThePendulum> Magentium: #ubuntu+1
[16:31] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: you mean you get greyed out ? icons instead?
[16:31] <Magentium> ThePendulum, use that channel instead?
[16:31] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: no, when I search for them in the unity panel, there are just no relevant results
[16:31] <ThePendulum> I don't know what that panel thing is called
[16:32] <curlyears> the Desltop?
[16:32] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: dash with the ubuntu logo?
[16:32] <ThePendulum> dash is probably it
[16:32] <curlyears> desKtop
[16:32] <curlyears> dash
[16:32] <ThePendulum> been using it for years, vocabulary is not my strong side
[16:32] <ThePendulum> but yeah, the thing that shows up when I ram the super key
[16:33] <ThePendulum> or click the ubuntu logo
[16:33] <ThePendulum> which I never do, forgot that'll make it appear too, my bad :P
[16:33] <user|89840> hi all!
[16:34] <ThePendulum> 'lo
[16:34] <user|89840> please, help me with video drivers
[16:34] <EriC^^> hi user|89840
[16:34] <lotuspsychje> !details | user|89840
[16:34] <curlyears> I greshlyinstall 14.04 from aa DVD downloaded 2 days ago.  Installation goes without a hitch.  When I restaat, it complains about "trying to read or write beyond hd0" then dumps ,e to A GRUB PROMPT
[16:34] <EriC^^> curlyears: how big is your hdd
[16:35] <curlyears> EnC^^  3TB
[16:35] <EriC^^> curlyears: uefi ?
[16:35] <Pici> p/25
[16:36] <curlyears> I suppose so...it never ask aboutt uefi
[16:36] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: not sure why it would not show, did you notice differences by official packages and ppa added packages?
[16:37] <user|89840> I works with sweet home 3d program. When i used kubuntu, it worked correctly, but on ubuntu I always have segfault. I think it is video drivers truoble. Maybe there is difference in kubuntu and ubuntu x11 driver versions?
[16:37] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: no, this is what I mean for additional clarity btw http://imgur.com/a/9D1TY
[16:37] <ThePendulum> although I think it was clear
[16:37] <EriC^^> curlyears: can you boot a live usb?
[16:37] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: actually I don't think I encountered it with a ppa package, but I think that's just sheer frequency
[16:37] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: I had it with Skype's deb package and with puddletag through apt-get just now
[16:38] <curlyears> I am on a live DVD now. m  for some reason, ythis system does not seemm to like to boot from USB DEVCIES
[16:39] <ThePendulum> I wonder whether the 2nd display issues I had with 16.04 will resolves themselves at release, I didn't really mean to upgrade to 15.10, lol
[16:39] <ThePendulum> now I got everything set up and I can wipe it again in a few weeks
[16:39] <EriC^^> curlyears: the hdd is usb?
[16:39] <ThePendulum> eh not few weeks
[16:39] <EriC^^> curlyears: oh
[16:39] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: you can upgrade wilty to xenial also
[16:39] <EriC^^> is it though?
[16:40] <ThePendulum> the release is overmorrow innit
[16:40] <curlyears> eRIc^^   NOPE, INTERNAL sata
[16:40] <DexterF> hi
[16:40] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: im installing puddle myself to check, holdon
[16:40] <EriC^^> curlyears: ok, type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999
[16:40] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: I didn't notice this in 14.04
[16:40] <DexterF> in a non-gnome/unity session, how do I change gtk3 themes?
[16:40] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: so yeah, sudo apt-get install puddletag, normally GUI applications show up immediately, but this requires a new session
[16:41] <ThePendulum> they are definitely installed though, I can run them from the command line
[16:41] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: puddletag doesnt show gui here neither
[16:42] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: on xenial that is
[16:42] <ThePendulum> glad it's reproducable
[16:42] <lotuspsychje> ThePendulum: you sure its not a cli app, you saw this before?
[16:42] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: in my screenshot I have puddletag running behind the dash
[16:43] <ThePendulum> and it happened with Skype and the compiz config settings manager as well
[16:43] <appleguru> is there a reasonable way to “offline update” a 12.04 install to 14.04 without cloning the entire official repo(s)?
[16:44] <Vert> @appleguru you might be able to do so if you burn the Live DVDs for the major releases since 12.04 and upgrade using the DVD as a repo.
[16:45] <appleguru> Vert: interesting… ideally this would be something I could automate/deploy on a headless machine
[16:45] <appleguru> IE, no user interaction (!)
[16:45] <curlyears> EriC^^: response i:  http:://termbin.com/drp5
[16:46] <Vert> @appleguru perhaps you could put the .iso on a network share and point apt-get to that? Not sure if that particular solution will work irl tho
[16:46] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: I wonder how clean updating to xenial from wilty would be though, I prefer clea installs, but this is a bit recent...
[16:46] <ThePendulum> I should've resolved all issues before wiping 14.04, lol
[16:46] <Vert> @appleguru https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PreciseUpgrades#Upgrading_Using_the_Alternate_CD.2FDVD
[16:47] <Vert> Nevermind. Looking at this, you should absolutely be able to put that .iso on a net share and just mount it and use it as such.
[16:49] <Vert> @appleguru http://askubuntu.com/questions/110477/how-do-i-upgrade-to-a-newer-version-of-ubuntu and control+f "Upgrading using the command line". between these two links, you should be able to script it away
[16:49] <EriC^^> curlyears: ok, the bios_grub partition is at the start of the disk
[16:49] <EriC^^> i think that's fine
[16:50] <appleguru> Vert: Thanks, will take a look
[16:50] <EriC^^> curlyears: it should be on the first 2Tb of the disk according to the arch wiki
[16:50] <Vert> @appleguru no problem!
[16:50] <curlyears> EriC^^:   as one would expect in aa fresh install, Yes?
[16:52] <EriC^^> curlyears: how old is the machine?
[16:53] <curlyears> EriC^^:   hardware  all brand new last August.
[16:53] <appleguru> Vert: hmm.. I don’t see an “alternate” install CD for 14.04? http://mirror.pnl.gov/releases/14.04.4/
[16:53] <EriC^^> curlyears: ok, it is this
[16:53] <EriC^^> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1284196
[16:54] <EriC^^> curlyears: i think if you make a separate /boot at the start of the disk, it will load grub fine
[16:54] <vacho> I am a root user, but I cannot access /root on the server. I guess I need to sudo first before entering that folder? How?
[16:55] <EriC^^> vacho: sudo -i
[16:55] <vacho> EriC^^: much better! worked ;)
[16:55] <vacho> :) **
[16:55] <firman> hay, anyone here that use asus X200MA? my sysrq cant used, i was try alt+fn+sysrq+REISUB and nothing happen
[16:57] <curlyears> Eric^^ :  so I see. to borrow a prase from Mr. Spockl;   fascinating.  Thnkas!\
[16:57] <curlyears> oops
[16:57] <EriC^^> curlyears: :D no problem
[16:58] <curlyears> BBIAB
[17:01] <Vert> @appleguru  IIRC the alternative CD was just a command line minimal deal. You might have to use the network install image for newer ones.
[17:05] <Inspiral> I changed graphics card and I'm having some bother getting supported resolutions detected and experience this error in Xorg.0.log: [     4.242] (II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI2 capable
[17:05] <Inspiral> [     4.242] (EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering The full log is here: https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8868243 can anybody assist? Initially I couldn't get X to boot until I had removed the old driver, now X works but in low resolution
[17:06] <Inspiral> The graphics card is a Radeon HD4850 which is apparently supported by the opensource radeon driver, which is supposed to be pre-installed
[17:06] <lotuspsychje> Inspiral: ubuntu version?
[17:07] <Inspiral> 14.04
[17:07] <lotuspsychje> Inspiral: wich graphics card did you have before?
[17:08] <Inspiral> geforce 6800
[17:08] <lotuspsychje> Inspiral: you could try a sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
[17:08] <Inspiral> I believe they were removed by apt-get suggesting to use autoremove, but let me try that
[17:09] <Inspiral> That failed, I believe they are already gone
[17:09] <Inspiral> E: Unable to locate package nvidia-prime-upstart.log
[17:10] <lotuspsychje> Inspiral: ok, i would try a recoverymode/fix broken packages maybe, it might fix the radeon
[17:10] <lotuspsychje> Inspiral: is your system up to date to latest 14.04.4 also?
[17:12] <lotuspsychje> Inspiral: you can enter the recoverymode from grub==> then fix broken packages menu
[17:12] <Inspiral> I believe I'm up-to-date, I'll try recovery mode now,

[17:13] <grv> help ! i got this message on opening of virtualbox http://pastebin.com/HYJWCYqt
[17:13] <appleguru> so, do offline upgrades work with the 14.04 DVD?
[17:15] <k1l> appleguru: yes, they should.
[17:15] <k1l> grv: what ubuntu exactly?
[17:16] <grv> k1I: 14.04 lts
[17:18] <k1l> grv: the output of "uname -a" please
[17:18] <appleguru> k1l: and I can script it/mount it as an image?

[17:18] <wwwi> hello
[17:19] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: welcome, what can we do for you?
[17:19] <k1l> grv: well, you are using a custom kernel. make sure to have the mathcing headers installed.
[17:19] <wwwi> if ubuntu apps crash, it means you need to reinstall ubuntu?
[17:19] <k1l> grv: if that doesnt work ask the one who shipped that kernel to you what is going wrong there
[17:19] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: wich apps are you talking about?
[17:19] <wwwi> random
[17:20] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: can you give us an example of a package that crashes on wich ubuntu version?
[17:20] <freeone3000> I'm trying to set up an L2TP-PSK VPN client. However, NetworkManager doesn't seem to support this. Is my best option configuring OpenSWAN and tunneling all traffic through that?
[17:20] <wwwi> lotuspsyche it's random apps that crash
[17:20] <grv> k1I: how to install mathcing headers.yup I am using kernel for development
[17:21] <james1138> Is Kino the only video editing software that handles digitial video (DV)?  I have old VHS tapes to make into MP4 files	....or is the a GUI for dvgrab?
[17:21] <wwwi> e.g. sometimes ubuntu software center on ubuntu 15
[17:21] <k1l> grv: get them there, where you got the kernel
[17:21] <Modhaarn> I'm installing Ubuntu in UEFI mode (custom partitioning scheme). Do I need to change the bootloader location to /dev/sda2 (my ESP), or leave it at /dev/sda?
[17:21] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: upgrade or clean install? 15.04 or 15.10?
[17:22] <wwwi> lotuspsychje: the .1
[17:22] <lotuspsychje> !uefi | Modhaarn can this help?
[17:22] <wwwi> lotuspsychje: clean
[17:22] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: can you start software-center from terminal? see what kind of errors occur?
[17:23] <grv> i got it from //git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
[17:23] <grv> k1I
[17:23] <wwwi> lotuspsychje: its working now
[17:23] <wwwi> sometimes it crashes
[17:23] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: ok lets us know wich errors at the time it crashes
[17:23] <wwwi> ok
[17:24] <k1l> grv: yes, we cant support this in here. you need to get to know where you get all the stuff you need like kernels headers and kernel extras etc. to build the kernel modules with dkms.
[17:24] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: if you installed clean, reinstall would not be needed..
[17:24] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: so a deeper investigate of the crashes would be usefull
[17:24] <wwwi> ok
[17:25] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: the rest of your system performs good overall?
[17:26] <wwwi> yes
[17:26] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: can you recall other packages crashing?
[17:28] <wwwi> not sure of another example
[17:28] <lotuspsychje> wwwi: ok mate, keep us informed when something else happens
[17:28] <wwwi> thanks
[17:28] <wwwi> is this behavour common in ubunbtu?
[17:29] <k1l> no
[17:29] <k1l> if there is a crash it must have a reason. and the errormessages will help finding the reason. so one can solve that
[17:30] <wwwi> ok
[17:30] <wwwi> but is it common for ubuntu to have problems with noerdn hardware?
[17:30] <wwwi> modern?
[17:30] <k1l> no
[17:31] <ExecSlim> How long do users usually wait before upgrading to a new ubuntu release? (For most of the bugs to be fixed during release)
[17:32] <k1l> ExecSlim: that depends on the user. a lot of users cant even wait for the final release. but since the non-LTS only have 9 months support you will need to have to upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04 from end of april to july.
[17:32] <thechanceg> my keychain seems unable to remember my credentials for a network drive? I have to re-enter the user/pass after every restart, regardless of what I choose for remembering. Synology drive if that matters. Any ideas?
[17:32] <linmob> ExecSlim: Depends on your specific use cases. I used to always test with a new ISO whether it would boot back when I had "difficult" hardware.
[17:36] <Inspiral> lotuspsychje, thanks, fix broken packages worked a treat, much appreciated!
[17:36] <Guest24884> I have a problem with my network printer. The Windows computer to which the printer was comnected is not working in the moment. So I installed the printer on another XP printer. Now I want to print from my laptop with XUbuntu. To do that I copied the old printer and adjusted the samba path. However, Linux is asking for some kind of pasword and I get the message "Inactief - Can't load /etc/samba/smb.conf - run testparm to debug
[17:36] <Guest24884> it".
[17:37] <ThePendulum> lotuspsychje: thanks for checking the disappearing programs is not a local issue
[17:42] <Guest24884> I also get the message "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"
[17:42] <soulisson> Hello, I'm using k3b, it's the third it says preformatting the DVD any idea what can I do?
[17:43] <freeone3000> soulisson: Wait for the DVD to be preformatted? Buy formatted DVDs?
[17:43] <BluesKaj> soulisson, which "buntu version?
[17:43] <soulisson> freeone3000, but it's the third time?
[17:44] <soulisson> how many times is it going to preformat?
[17:45] <BluesKaj> K3b is buggy on 15.10 in my experience, better off to use wodim in the terminal
[17:46] <soulisson> BluesKaj, ok, but if I choose cancel is my DVD lost?
[17:47] <BluesKaj> soul is this dvd-r or rw?
[17:47] <freeone3000> Your DVD hasn't even started yet.
[17:47] <BluesKaj> soulisson,^
[17:47] <soulisson> It's written on the DVD "DVD+RW"
[17:48] <xdevnull> guys what is this dpkg-preconfigu ? taking 50% of my cpu and 20% of memory
[17:49] <BluesKaj> soulisson,  wodim -eject  -tao speed=0 dev=/dev/sXX -v -data /my/directory/image.iso..../dev/sXX being the cdrom drive
[17:49] <NoCode> Is there anyway to learn PHP on a local computer without installing a LAMP stack?
[17:49] <soulisson> BluesKaj, thanks
[17:49] <sealbhach> xdevnull dpkg is your package manager. I would kill it, then do sudo dpkg --configure -a
[17:50] <xdevnull> kill: kill 7384 failed: operation not permitted
[17:50] <BluesKaj> soulisson, run wodim --devices to find the cdrom device name
[17:50] <thechanceg> NoCode: i mean you could use the php-cli, but why?
[17:50] <soulisson> BluesKaj, I can't seem to physically eject my dvd, is there a command?
[17:50] <sealbhach> xdevnull sudo, then: kill -9 7384
[17:51] <NoCode> thechanceg, Maybe I'll just create a virtual host ony my VPS to learn from. I guess that's probably the best solution.
[17:52] <genii> soulisson: sudo eject -T /dev/cdrom
[17:52] <xdevnull> sealbhach, i killed it it ran again but this time with root -_-
[17:53] <xdevnull> sealbhach, i killed it it ran again but this time with root -_-
[17:53] <thechanceg> NoCode: if you are going to be using php, 95% of the time it will be running in a lamp environment. Might as well get used to it :)
[17:53] <DexterF> in a non-gnome/unity session, how do I change gtk3 themes?
[17:54] <thechanceg> NoCode: sudo apt-get install tasksell && sudo tasksel install lamp-server and you are good to go
[17:54] <thechanceg> sorry, only one l, tasksel
[17:54] <xdevnull> Maybe update-manager executing it?
[17:54] <NoCode> thechanceg, what's tasksel?
[17:54] <NoCode> !info tasksel
[17:55] <NoCode> Never heard of that before.
[17:55] <xdevnull> sealbhach, u received my msg?
[17:55] <sealbhach> xdevnull preconfigure sounds like its trying to install something
[17:55] <xdevnull> sealbach, i've install running :/
[17:56] <sealbhach> sorry, didn't get msg
[17:56] <TAFB2> is 'do-release-upgrade' to run over ssh?
[17:56] <Strykar> hi, does anyone use sixxs.net's AICCU client for an IPv6 tunnel? It creates a sixxs interface, shouldn't it create a tun0 interface instead?
[17:56] <xdevnull> i don't have install running *
[17:56] <TAFB2> "safe"
[17:56] <xdevnull> sealbhach, i killed it it ran again but this time with root -_-. I'VE UPDATE MANAGER running maybe it causing it to run again?
[17:56] <xdevnull> in Software update center u've "Applying changes" but this since long time there..
[17:57] <sealbhach> Hmm, is it taking forever to run? Maybe just let it complete
[17:57] <xdevnull> sealbhach,  not moving since hours
[17:58] <soulisson> BluesKaj, didn't work maybe there is an issue with my burner
[17:58] <piero> Why "hashcat" isnt in the official repository ?
[17:58] <sealbhach> Well then it should die. See if you can go into the Update Manager GUI and stop it doing what it's doing
[17:58] <piero> is there a lack of thrust ?
[17:59] <TAFB2> is 'do-release-upgrade' safe to run over ssh?
[17:59] <teward> TAFB2: run it inside a 'screen' session maybe
[17:59] <wdbl> I uninstalled all of the landscape packages but I'm still getting landscape info after login (MOTD) - how do I get rid of that/
[17:59] <teward> but i wouold be CERTAIN you have backups first
[17:59] <TAFB2> alright, here goes!
[17:59] <teward> wdbl: is it giving you the standard Landscape advert?
[18:00] <teward> wdbl: if it is, ignore it - that's just part of the automated script giving system informatoin out :P
[18:00] <wdbl> teward: It's got System load, IP addresses, Swap usage, etc. and a link to https://landscape.canonical.com
[18:00] <wdbl> teward: I ran: sudo apt-get uninstall landscape-common so I expected this MOTD to be removed
[18:01] <wdbl> I guess my question is - do i have to remove this manually or did I not uninstall things correctly?
[18:01] <xdevnull> sealbhach, It's trying to update "mysql-apt-config" but it stuck there for some reasons.. i dont know
[18:03] <sealbhach> xdevnull, OK don't know what that is. You are the boss though, so don't let it be doing things against your will.
[18:03] <wdbl> does anybody know if the landscape MOTD should have been removed by uninstalling landscape-common or if I have to do that myself?
[18:03] <xdevnull> sealbhach, roger leader.
[18:03] <sealbhach> xdevnull, if it was my system, I would do what I usually do
[18:03] <sealbhach> kill everything, then run sudo dpkg --configure -a
[18:04] <sealbhach> Also maybe apt-get -f install
[18:04] <xdevnull> /var/lib/dpkg/lock.. how do i kill it?
[18:06] <sealbhach> You may have to open your file manager as root, go into that directory and delete the lockfile, or do it from the command line
[18:07] <DiamondSword> I want to change Ubuntu's orange all over the system. how can I do that?
[18:08] <eNull> :(
[18:09] <a7i3n1> join #manjaro
[18:09] <wdbl> ok, looks like a reboot took away the landscape info from the login message. yay!
[18:09] <a7i3n1> yikes... can't tyoe...
[18:10] <gurr> Hello. My mouse cursor just disappeared! Any way to get it back without rebooting?
[18:10] <gurr> It still works it's only invisible
[18:11] <compdoc> sounds like a driver issue
[18:11] <gurr> it's weird. never happened before
[18:11] <Maczimus> that happened to me the other day. rebooted...
[18:12] <pi_> when i log in to lubuntu i have no mouse cursor. i have to log out and log in and then i hve a mouse cursor. Can i do something about this
[18:12] <nubwerd> gurr, you could restart your window manager or something killall -1 xorg ? i don't know
[18:15] <huphup> how can i paste the output using command line
[18:15] <huphup> to a pastebin like ptpb,etc
[18:16] <huphup> so immediately effectivve and quick
[18:18] <huphup> helllo?
[18:18] <gurr> nubwerd: hmm, not sure how to do that without losing all running programs. I think I'll be safer with a save&restart :)
[18:19] <nubwerd> gurr, i would try asking in #xorg too
[18:19] <piero> Is there a reason to HASHCAT dont be in the official or community repositories?
[18:22] <galileo_> alguna chica por alli?

[18:25] <piero> I dont know? Do you?
[18:26] <piero> But I dont think thats the right answer

[18:27] <noob101> d
[18:27] <noob101> f
[18:31] <codepython7771> I'm trying to install ubuntu 14.04.4 on my nuc, and get a Syslinux boot error - any ideas how to fix this?
[18:31] <huphup> codepython7771, tell me
[18:32] <jatt_> i'm new
[18:32] <jatt_> sd
[18:32] <huphup> i am experience and an arrch user as well
[18:32] <huphup> so ask waht u have to jatt_  codepython7771
[18:33] <huphup> codepython7771, did you use grub as bootloader?
[18:33] <EriC^^> codepython7771: how did you make the usb
[18:34] <Guest34838> I have some problem with Samba after adding a second printer which didn't worked. how can i fix samba?
[18:34] <codepython7771> EriC^^: A friend gave it, let me ask
[18:35] <codepython7771> EriC^^: Is there a recommended way of making the usb stick for install?
[18:36] <lokien> hey guys, I tried to install graphics drivers (through "additional drivers", then by "apt install nvidia-340") and now I have no icons. anybody help, please?
[18:36] <jost_> What is the release date für Ubuntu 16.04.1?
[18:36] <jost_> Is there even one?
[18:37] <huphup> codepython7771, u should install it again, yes there is a way
[18:37] <le_pig> jost_: Point releases are generally available every 6 months, no?
[18:37] <codepython7771> Startup disk creator?
[18:38] <huphup> sudo dd if=/file_location of=/dev/sdb & sync will suffice
[18:38] <jost_> le_pig: no idea, that's why I'm asking
[18:38] <destino> jost_, 21
[18:38] <huphup> u can use that too, or unetbootin that's better and more professional!
[18:38] <jost_> destino: I'm asking for the point release 16.04.1
[18:38] <codepython7771> huphup: so on the 2GB USB drive i just copy the ISO byte to byte?
[18:38] <le_pig> jost_: I believe the 14.04 point releases occurred roughly every 6 months.
[18:38] <huphup> make your own iso yourself, yes u can use dd better,
[18:39] <huphup> specify bs=1M bs is locksize
[18:39] <jost_> le_pig: thanks
[18:39] <firman> jost_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases release date
[18:40] <Guest34838> How can I get a clean version of samba again? It doesn't l;et me install it nor uninstall it. there is an error with system-config-samba and a conttrolproces with error code
[18:41] <codepython7771> huphup: do you know why that error happens?
[18:41] <codepython7771> SYSLINUX 6.03 ... boot error
[18:41] <huphup> i never got that error, how could you burn that file so quickkly
[18:42] <huphup> do didint answer my questio neither, whch bootloader are you using, that is the source to the problem, and which ubuntu version
[18:43] <jost_> firman: thanks
[18:43] <huphup> use grub , instead of syslinux that is the cause of the error, and then boot in legacy BIOS not UEFI!!!
[18:43] <Guest34838> I keep getting "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"
[18:43] <firman> jost_: ur wellcome
[18:43] <huphup> codepython7771, which version of ubuntu are you using
[18:44] <huphup> cat /etc/*release shows the version
[18:44] <huphup> or uname -a
[18:47] <codepython7771> huphup: 14.04.4
[18:48] <codepython7771> huphup: just got a new usb drive from a friend. Pushed it in and tried to install - got boot error
[18:50] <huphup> codepython7771, how many times i have to tell u, dont use his pendrive, burn iso on your own
[18:50] <huphup> then you will know what you are doing: are you on windows, if you have ubuntu use unetbootin atleast to burn it AGAIN
[18:51] <huphup> and then tell me do you get the error, you willl never get the error, trust yourself and be confident
[18:51] <codepython7771> huphup: i'm on ubuntu 14.04
[18:51] <codepython7771> I was thinking of using your dd command
[18:52] <huphup> i'm sure you can do it, then what's the problem, format it first using 'disks'
[18:52] <codepython7771> k
[18:52] <sebsebseb> hi
[18:53] <huphup> codepython7771, i dont understand u at all
[18:53] <huphup> i dont know what the problem is any longer since you are not doing things that you are told
[18:55] <huphup> codepython7771, how old are you?
[18:55] <huphup> are you a teenie
[18:55] <huphup> you talk like a teenager
[18:56] <MBuff22016> hi
[18:56] <MBuff22016> is there a such thing as overburn raid ?
[18:57] <MBuff22016> RAID 1 w/overburn
[19:08] <princesse_lama> hello ?
[19:09] <MBuff22016> is there a such thing as overburn raid ?
[19:09] <MBuff22016> RAID 1 w/overburn
[19:12] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: "overburn" is medium-specific. It makes sense on DVDs and CDs, which have an in-built "redundancy" segment, but don't make sense on HDDs and SSDs, which generally either do not have such a thing or do not present it to clients.
[19:12] <anzu103_> hola alguien es de venezuela?
[19:13] <cinese93> ciao
[19:13] <cinese93> !list
[19:14] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  i dont care if it makes sense i want to know if such a thing exists
[19:14] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: No, such a thing does not exist.
[19:14] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  if it did what would it be called ?
[19:15] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: The thing that doesn't make sense and doesn't exist? What would it be called if it did?
[19:15] <MyCuriosity> Default file explorer of ubuntu is stuck. What process name am i searching for ?
[19:15] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: Charles, I suppose.
[19:15] <EriC^^> MyCuriosity: nautilus
[19:16] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  for a flylog environment something like this would be helpful
[19:16] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  flywheel log*
[19:17] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  especially if i want to have additional redundancies
[19:17] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: What are you *actually* asking for?
[19:17] <MBuff22016> RAID 1 with overburn
[19:17] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: RAID1 is a thing that exists, overburn is not.
[19:18] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  you don't understand then.  i want RAID 1 but i also want included overburn.
[19:18] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: And what would this overburn do?
[19:18] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  once both disks are full the second disk starts filling up on its own
[19:19] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  for a flywheel log environment something like this would be helpful
[19:19] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: Uh. Once both disks are full, *both* disks are full. WHere would the data go?
[19:20] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  the second disk would overwrite existing data from the disk entry point on
[19:20] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: So you want RAID0.
[19:20] <MBuff22016> no
[19:20] <MBuff22016> I want redundant raid with overburn
[19:20] <MBuff22016> unless raid 0 already does this ?
[19:21] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: Your "overburn", due to how RAID works, would ruin the entire redundant aspect of RAID1 involving the second disk - partitions are *not* safe to freely overwrite!
[19:21] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  how do you figure ?
[19:21] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: ...cause I know RAID. It's a block-level system, not a file-level system, and if all blocks are equal, no blocks are equal.
[19:22] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  is there a file level raid ?
[19:22] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: You could take it out of RAID1 and then re-raid as a RAID0, but then you probably should have had it in this segment to begin with, and this transform cannot be done on-line.
[19:22] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: Why are they RAIDed if you care more about capacity than redudnancy, anyway? Why not lvm?
[19:22] <thewhitehat> MBuff22016: what you're asking for is ridiculous. Either you want redundancy, or you don't.
[19:22] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  is there a file level raid with two hard disks ?
[19:22] <thewhitehat> Pick one and stick with it.
[19:23] <MBuff22016> thewhitehat:  its not ridiculous at all
[19:23] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: It actually is.
[19:23] <MBuff22016> no it isn't
[19:23] <thewhitehat> MBuff22016: It's completely ridiculous.
[19:23] <MBuff22016> thewhitehat:  its not ridiculous at all
[19:23] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: You want it fully redundant! Until the point you run out of space, in which case, you don't want redundancy at all.
[19:23] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  yes exactly
[19:24] <thewhitehat> MBuff22016: You can say that as much as you want, but it IS ridiculous, and shows you have zero concept of how RAID functions or why it exists.
[19:24] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: That's contradictory, is what it is.
[19:24] <thewhitehat> MBuff22016: Yes, exactly. It's ridiculous.
[19:24] <MBuff22016> thewhitehat:  like i said it would make perfect sense in a fly wheel log environment
[19:24] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: It means that you're willing to have low capacity *and* no redundancy at any point, because you're fine with either.
[19:24] <MBuff22016> thewhitehat:  its not ridiculous at all
[19:25] <thewhitehat> MBuff22016: So you've said. Obviously, you're mistaken.
[19:25] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  im fine with RAID UNTIL both disks are full
[19:25] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: Which means that, the more data you have, the less important redundancy is?
[19:25] <MBuff22016> freeone3000:  correct.
[19:25] <thewhitehat> MBuff22016: There is no until. There is no use case where this is a sane solution.
[19:25] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: You want RAID0.
[19:26] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: Actually, run it as a degraded RAID5, for more performance.
[19:26] <MBuff22016> thewhitehat:  it makes perfect sense if you already have multiple redundancies capturing logs elsewhere
[19:26] <thewhitehat> freeone3000: I almost spit my coffee on that one.,
[19:26] <thewhitehat> MBuff22016: No, it makes no sense. I do this for a living, as does the entire team that I manage. It's absurd.
[19:27] <freeone3000> MBuff22016: So, you don't need redundancy *at all*, which is perfectly fine, you just need capacity. In seriousness, I'd do this with LVM. RAID0 is another actually decent choice. (Don't do the RAID5 thing.)
[19:27] <thewhitehat> freeone3000: And honestly, I think it's a troll, so I'm just going to wander off.
[19:30] <speleo> Hey everyone. I'm trying to add a third SSD to my server running ubuntu server 14.04, but whenever I add it, it seems that my second SSD fails to mount.
[19:30] <speleo> Disconnecting the third SSD resolves the issue
[19:31] <tnewman> i'm guessing something to do with /etc/fstab
[19:31] <speleo> ls /dev | grep sda shows sda and sda1 when SSD 3 is disconnected, but once connected the same command only shows sda
[19:31] <EriC^^> speleo: it's probably using /dev/sdX instead of the uuid
[19:31] <tnewman> right, what EriC^^ said
[19:31] <speleo> Somehow the primary partion is not shown when I plug it in
[19:31] <EriC^^> speleo: /etc/fstab
[19:31] <speleo> Hrm, so maybe it switched to sdc1?
[19:32] <speleo> I know, I have it open in Vim right now. I'll try switching it to sdc
[19:32] <EriC^^> speleo: sudo parted -l shows the disks and partitions
[19:32] <EriC^^> speleo: use the uuid instead
[19:32] <EriC^^> sudo blkid /dev/sdc1
[19:32] <speleo> Fantastic idea, thank you
[19:32] <tnewman> can you use /dev/disk/by-id/ in fstab?
[19:32] <EriC^^> UUID=323h-4c334.... in /etc/fstab instead of /dev/sda1
[19:33] <speleo> And it worked! Thank you.
[19:33] <tnewman> also, sudo hdparm /dev/sd*
[19:34] <firman> what the meaning of boot firmware?
[19:34] <EriC^^> uefi or bios maybe
[19:34] <tnewman> hdparm is super useful too, if you want to see what sdX/UUID/id corresponds to what

[19:52] <entourage> why were there no build for the 18th ??
[19:53] <freeone3000> I'm trying to run Ubuntu in VirtualBox. How can I use X11 as my display so that extensions work?
[19:53] <entourage> will there not be any more daily builds??
[19:54] <UbuntuDude> funny thing ubuntu is giving me operation was interrupted before it could finish, yet it didn't stop in time when I figured I probably made a mistake!
[19:54] <UbuntuDude> it just continued removing important stuff from them system
[19:54] <UbuntuDude> what I've done what this command .. sudo apt-get autoremove minitube
[19:55] <UbuntuDude> it ended up removing many things they seem important and I'm not sure if the system will bootup again or not
[19:55] <couchsurfer> hello! I'm at a friends place and her ubuntu update seems to be stuck how can I unblock and retry?
[19:56] <UbuntuDude> how can I fix this problem? http://pastebin.com/qe21ikwv
[19:57] <tripelb> couchsurfer: 1. What is your version you started with ..  Going to?  2. How do you know it is stuck?
[19:57] <EriC^^> UbuntuDude: they dont seem that important
[19:57] <EriC^^> libs for videos mainly
[19:57] <UbuntuDude> EriC^^: is there an automatic way to put the system back as it was?
[19:58] <UbuntuDude> something to undo the autormove command
[19:58] <tripelb> <-also couchsurfer (use #ubuntu-offtopic to reply to this. Not in this channel)
[19:58] <EriC^^> UbuntuDude: type tail /var/log/apt/history.log
[19:59] <EriC^^> and get the list of the programs it removed and save them in a file
[19:59] <EriC^^> bla (1.1), bla2 (1.2), ...
[19:59] <couchsurfer> it is version 12.04 it got stuck upon trying to updatem it stopped progressing halfway. and to make things more complicated the system is in slovac and my host just went to bed :-s
[20:00] <couchsurfer> tripelb: how do I change to that channel?
[20:01] <UbuntuDude> EriC^^: then what? apt-get install each one from the list or there some UNDO like command?
[20:02] <Kocane> Any stunnel experts here?
[20:02] <EriC^^> UbuntuDude: sed -ie 's/([^()]*)//g' /path/to/file
[20:03] <MonkeyDust> !find stunnel
[20:03] <EriC^^> UbuntuDude: you could just copy and paste each one, sudo apt-get install bla1 bla2 bla3
[20:03] <Kocane> MonkeyDust huh?
[20:03] <EriC^^> without the version number
[20:03] <tripelb> couchsurfer: starting in column one /join #ubuntu-offtopic  it maybe just r-click on the channel name I typed. (Method 2 depends on your client)
[20:03] <UbuntuDude> EriC^^: thanks :)

[20:11] <movic> i have a problem with su command
[20:11] <movic> I'm as root right now and when i use "su user" im getting permission denied
[20:11] <movic> :/
[20:12] <movic> Anyone can help?
[20:12] <EriC^^> which user
[20:12] <MonkeyDust> movic  ctrl d to go back to normal user, then use sudo
[20:12] <MonkeyDust> movic  ctrl d to go back to normal user, then use sudo, if you need root permission for something
[20:12] <movic> its vps i've got only root
[20:13] <EriC^^> su www-data ?
[20:13] <movic> and i have another user and i cant switch to it
[20:13] <movic> EriC^^: what do you mean?
[20:13] <EriC^^> type grep <user> /etc/passwd
[20:14] <EriC^^> movic: is the user a service's user?
[20:14] <movic> after grep
[20:14] <movic> taiga:x:1000:1000:Taiga,,,:/home/taiga:taiga
[20:14] <movic> EriC^^: it was crated by hadnd

[20:14] <EriC^^> movic: ok, the shell is set to "taiga"
[20:14] <EriC^^> movic: type chsh taiga -s /bin/bash
[20:15] <movic> hhhuuh
[20:15] <movic> it works
[20:15] <movic> :)
[20:15] <movic> thanks guys
[20:15] <EriC^^> no problem
[20:17] <Blink`> Bashing-om - I know what LAMP stands for..
[20:18] <Blink`> EriC^^ - Possibly. Let me check
[20:19] <Blink`> MySQL seems to be running
[20:19] <EriC^^> aha
[20:19] <Blink`> PHP doesn't seem to be installed, even though there's a php directory
[20:19] <Blink`> I'm checking correctly, with 'sudo service xxx status', right?
[20:20] <EriC^^> Blink`: try dpkg -l | grep php
[20:20] <EriC^^> there's probably a command for apache to list the enabled stuff, let me see
[20:20] <Blink`> That did return a bunch of stuff
[20:21] <Bashing-om> Blink`: What we are suggesting, see if the components of lamp are installed .. say like ' dpkg -l php5 ' ??
[20:22] <Blink`> That is my intention, yes.
[20:22] <Blink`> I'm new to the ubuntu scene, so trying to learning this properly
[20:23] <Bashing-om> Blink`: We were all new at one time .. Hang in there ... it will come together .
[20:24] <Blink`> Thank you, much appreciated ^^
[20:24] <nacc> Blink`: for the case of php, it's not a service, it's a interpreter (well the php executable itself) -- and so it's about making sure it's enabled for the SAPI you want to use
[20:24] <Blink`> That actually cleared things up for me
[20:25] <Blink`> Having any luck, EriC^^?
[20:26] <nacc> iirc, it's apache2ctl, EriC^^
[20:26] <nacc> apache2ctl -M ?
[20:26] <EriC^^> yes ^
[20:26] <nacc> might need sudo
[20:27] <Blink`>  http_module (static), php5_module (shared) has appeared in the list
[20:27] <EriC^^> that's it i think
[20:27] <Blink`> So that means it's enabled
[20:27] <Blink`> Awesome, so that means LAMP was pre-installed
[20:27] <Blink`> That would've been nice to know beforehand.. :p
[20:28] <EriC^^> yup
[20:29] <Blink`> Last question then :p
[20:29] <Blink`> What now? xD
[20:29] <EriC^^> if it's a new vps, you should probably secure it
[20:30] <EriC^^> china bots are probably all over the ssh
[20:30] <Blink`> I made my friend sort out the ssh for me
[20:30] <\9> using key pair authentication and disabling passwords deals away with the chinese bots
[20:30] <Blink`> Before I did anything, since for some reason
[20:30] <Blink`> ssh didn't co-operate with me
[20:30] <Blink`> So I got the private key and such
[20:31] <welder_> hi
[20:31] <\9> if key authentication works then you can disable passwords entirely (but then you need to ensure that you don't lose your keys)
[20:32] <Blink`> Since this is my first server, I'll stick with passwords for now
[20:32] <\9> hmm yea probably a good idea if you're just starting
[20:32] <Blink`> At least until I'm knowledgeable with Ubuntu
[20:33] <Blink`> ty though \9
[20:33] <Blink`> Just wondering what to do now, am I able to change the IP address to this domain I own?
[20:34] <EriC^^> Blink`: yeah, you need to set up a nameserver for the domain
[20:34] <dn5> Blink`: depends
[20:35] <EriC^^> Blink`: freedns.afraid.org if your vps doesn't give free nameservers
[20:35] <Blink`> Heh, it's fine. I've had one rented with GoDaddy for years
[20:35] <Blink`> Mostly due to making sure no one else took the domain :p
[20:35] <couchsurfer> hey tripelb I have issues accessing my mailaccount for registration as I am logging in from Slovakia instead of my home country. this seems to take a while. I was not aware that this is your nick. I believe nicknames can expire on nickserv as I've had a similar issue years ago when I still used IRC
[20:36] <AaronTheGreat> Hi. How does the apache2 server/nginx server generate var/www? I need to create one as nginx did not? how do I do this?
[20:36] <EriC^^> Blink`: nameserver not domain
[20:36] <Blink`> Ohh
[20:36] <dn5> AaronTheGreat: I think it's installation procedure
[20:37] <dn5> AaronTheGreat: doesn't have to be default
[20:37] <dn5> IIRC you can change either in your config
[20:37] <Blink`> Wouldn't the nameserver come with the domain? Unless you mean one from the server, directly?
[20:37] <dn5> For Apache it's VirtualHost *
[20:37] <AaronTheGreat> dn5: yup, but its "recomended" by most things to put it in /var/www... and i'm not sure whats the BEST and most securest way to make it (permission wise)
[20:37] <tripelb> couchsurfer: I see.
[20:38] <EriC^^> Blink`: ah right
[20:38] <\9> Blink`: that's something you need to find out with your registrar
[20:38] <dn5> AaronTheGreat: I'm not an sys guy so don't listen to me. But I think readonly is a good aproach in case you are not serving a server-side dynamic content
[20:39] <dn5> But wait for others answer
[20:39] <\9> AaronTheGreat: permission wise you can make it so that all files belong to www-data user and group, and add users who can read/write to it into the www-data group
[20:39] <tripelb> couchsurfer: my nick us tripelb and your nick is couchsurfer  - tripelb is my only registered nick.
[20:40] <AaronTheGreat> Ok thanks \9 and dn5 :D
[20:40] <owen1_> how to stop nginx from running on boot? ps aux show me : root     18236  0.0  0.0  23808  6164 ?        Ss   12:49   0:00 nginx: master process nginx -g daemon off;
[20:40] <opGMO> Hello, Fellow Ubuntu Users.
[20:40] <EriC^^> hello
[20:40] <\9> AaronTheGreat: if you're much concerned about security you can split permissions of individual services into individual users/groups for different services
[20:40] <opGMO> Iḿ Happy To See You.
[20:40] <owen1_> and curl localhosh show me 302 page from nginx
[20:40] <\9> AaronTheGreat: so that a daemon running one service cannot edit the files of another
[20:41] <Blink`> \9 and EriC^^ - I just checked on GoDaddy, I have 2 nameservers provided.
[20:41] <\9> AaronTheGreat: of course if you're just having the web server run everything then that point is moot
[20:41] <AaronTheGreat> \g ok il do that :) thanks
[20:41] <tripelb> couchsurfer: I am a member of a group/site called couchsurfer and suggested discussing it in off topic, thereby creating a confusion.
[20:41] <EriC^^> Blink`: cool, put the ip of your server there as an A record for the domain and www.domain.com
[20:42] <opGMO> How Do I Connect To An IRC Server By Filling In A Link?
[20:43] <opGMO> No Answer? ;';
[20:44] <opGMO> ;_;
[20:44] <\9> opGMO: 1) be patient, 2) There's No Need To Write Like This, It's Annoying To Read, 3) what do you mean by filling in a link?, 4) what IRC client are you using
[20:46] <opGMO> 1). I am trying to be. 2). I'm very sorry for that. 3). I have recieved a link from an anonymous person from wich i would not like to talk about. And he said fill it in. 4). I be using XChat-GNOME
[20:47] <Blink`> EriC^^ - Although, I am getting this "The zone file is unavailable because the domain's set nameservers do not belong to this registrar."
[20:47] <Blink`> ¬_¬
[20:48] <EriC^^> Blink`: maybe it's the 2nd nameserver?
[20:48] <EriC^^> or something?
[20:48] <\9> opGMO: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XChatHowto here are general instructions on using XChat
[20:48] <opGMO> It's very irritating that i cannot see if anyone is typing. xD
[20:48] <opGMO> But Thanks either way :D
[20:48] <\9> opGMO: if you were given an IRC link in form of irc://irc.somewhere.net/blah then 'irc.somewhere.net' is the server name and '#blah' is the channel name
[20:49] <opGMO> There's no #Blah or anything behind a "/"
[20:49] <\9> opGMO: so then you were just given a server address?
[20:50] <\9> you should be able to connect to it anyway
[20:50] <daftmonk> anyone on the 16.04 beta?
[20:50] <Ben64> daftmonk: #ubuntu+1 for 16.04 until release
[20:50] <EriC^^> daftmonk: /join #ubuntu+1
[20:50] <daftmonk> cool thx
[20:50] <opGMO> nahh, still on 15.10, jst to be safe
[20:50] <\9> opGMO: please keep the discussion in here and not message me privately
[20:51] <opGMO> I'm verry sorry
[20:51] <nacc> also what does this have to do with Ubuntu, opGMO ?
[20:51] <opGMO> I was trying to communicate with "daftmonk"
[20:51] <xdevnull> /usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory
[20:51] <xdevnull> nodejs -v work / node -v not working how i can add alias?
[20:52] <Blink`> EriC^^ - Is there a way I can change the nameserver within ubuntu? I have the nodesktop version. So I would just need to go in the panel and configure from there, right
[20:52] <nacc> xdevnull: apt-get install nodejs-legacy, iirc
[20:53] <nacc> xdevnull: i just typed `node` at my prompt and c-n-f figured that out for me, fwiw
[20:53] <Ben64> Blink`: you likely need to configure your domain at your registrar's website
[20:53] <xdevnull> Thanks <3
[20:53] <xdevnull> nacc, that worked
[20:54] <Blink`> Ben64 - That's come up empty though. It's saying "The zone file is unavailable because the domain's set nameservers do not belong to this registrar."
[20:54] <ebene> Добрый вечер.
[20:54] <EriC^^> Blink`: try to go to settings in the domain
[20:55] <ebene> Есть кто?
[20:55] <Blink`> That works EriC^^ - Settings, but there's no way I can put my IP in the A record
[20:55] <\9> !ru |ebene
[20:56] <EriC^^> Blink`: does it say set the nameserver somewhere?
[20:56] <Blink`> It does say Nameservers + manage
[20:56] <Blink`> There's 2 nameservers on that list
[20:56] <EriC^^> aha
[20:57] <EriC^^> what are they?
[20:57] <Blink`> Is it safe to say it? xD
[20:57] <EriC^^> yeah
[20:57] <EriC^^> it's public
[20:57] <Blink`> NS51.REDBACKINTERNET.NET and NS52.REDBACKINTERNET.NET
[20:58] <Blink`> Those 2 are the nameservers, EriC^^
[20:59] <Ben64> Blink`: and who is your registrar?
[20:59] <Blink`> GoDaddy
[20:59] <Ben64> so why do you have redbackinternet in there
[20:59] <A_Beginner> How do i join different server's? I've been provided with a link "irc.something.net"
[20:59] <Blink`> Although, I'm curious. Am I just supposed to leave the main IP as itself, and make my server host a domain?
[20:59] <Ben64> A_Beginner: /server irc.something.net
[21:00] <A_Beginner> thanks :D
[21:00] <Ben64> Blink`: maybe you should continue this in ##networking
[21:00] <Blink`> A_Beginner a better one would be /server -m irc.something.net
[21:00] <\9> A_Beginner: FYI you're not decieving anyone with the name change
[21:00] <A_Beginner> No but i wanted to make it clear.
[21:00] <A_Beginner> That i'm a beginner.
[21:00] <TAFB2> upgrade do 15.10 stalled at "The user `syslog' is already a member of `adm'." If I log in to ssh, it says "Welcome to Ubuntu 15.10 (GNU/Linux 2.6.32-042stab113.11 x86_64)" ..... "New release '15.10' available." :(

[21:01] <Blink`> Ben64 - That may be so, but I don't think my question is for them
[21:01] <Blink`> The uhh
[21:01] <Blink`> Although, I'm curious. Am I just supposed to leave the main IP as itself, and make my server host a domain?
[21:01] <Ben64> Blink`: well it's not really ubuntu related
[21:01] <Blink`> If that is for that, then Ill go ask that :p
[21:01] <tripelb> Arg couchsurfer you must put that in a pastebin
[21:02] <couchsurfer> tripelb okay lol sorry

[21:06] <eze-marco> holaaa
[21:07] <lucas-arg> i can figure out how to configure ligthdm resolution
[21:10] <TAFB2> ok, after my upgrade do 15.10 stalled at "The user `syslog' is already a member of `adm'." I restarted and now I can't connect by SSH :(
[21:12] <Umeaboy> sebsebseb: Are you here?
[21:16] <curlyears> *YAY*    finally, after 15 weeks of struggle, I have a functional, booting computer!!!!!
[21:16] <TAFB2> look like a firewall problem! A port scan comes back with zero open ports :(
[21:18] <curlyears> now I can start playing with the 3D printer I got last October
[21:19] <curlyears> thank you to *ALL* of you, whohavebeen so supportive and helpful
[21:22] <sebsebseb> Umeaboy: yeah
[21:22] <TAFB2> sudo ufw disable = "ERROR: Couldn't stat '/etc/ufw/before6.rules'" :(
[21:23] <curlyears> thischannel is the most friendly and welcoming cjannle I have ever used, and I've been IRCing sisinve 1984
[21:23] <EriC^^> wait
[21:23] <tripelb> curlyears: yes it transformed my ability to use Linux (this channel did)
[21:23] <sebsebseb> curlyears: is IRC really that old, doesn't sound right
[21:23] <EriC^^> was there irc in 1984?
[21:23] <akik> curlyears: doubtful as irc was written in 1988
[21:24] <tripelb> Irc existed before the web. I used it in a shell.
[21:24] <tripelb> Irc was a command
[21:26] <YouCallItFar> hrm updater hung
[21:26] <curlyears> sebsebseb:  actually EFnet debuted in the late summer of 1983akik:  the CURRENT version of icr-server software was designed in 1988
[21:26] <TAFB2> YouCallItFar: you too? my upgrade to 15.10 hung :( system is REAL broke now
[21:26] <YouCallItFar> exact same TAFB2
[21:26] <tripelb> History of irc (what's a few years between friends)  https://daniel.haxx.se/irchistory.html
[21:27] <tripelb> curlyears: thanks. I didn't remember the year but undernet came out new.
[21:28] <tripelb> Curlyeas (OK to pm me anytime) you may be the (hu)man to update the Wikipedia
[21:28] <TAFB2> root@tafb:/# sudo do-release-upgrade -d ... Checking for a new Ubuntu release ... No new release found
[21:28] <TAFB2> oh damn, she broke
[21:29] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: no
[21:29] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: you don't want the -d
[21:29] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: that's for upgrading to development versions
[21:29] <TAFB2> without the -d it still says nothing new found, failed in the middle of updating to 15.10
[21:29] <TAFB2> nothing works now, like the networking or firewall is broke
[21:29] <teward> TAFB2: `sudo apt-get install -f`  on the terminal
[21:30] <sebsebseb> teward: 15.04 to 15.10 ?
[21:30] <teward> TAFB2: if it still doesn't work, you will probably be facingi a reinstall
[21:30] <tripelb> There are no years on this page   http://www.irc.org/history_docs/tao.html
[21:30] <teward> sebsebseb: partial-upgrade state
[21:30] <TAFB2> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[21:30] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: 15.04 to 15.10 ?
[21:30] <EriC^^> TAFB2: try sudo dpkg --configure -a
[21:30] <TAFB2> sebsebseb: yep
[21:30] <teward> TAFB2: `sudo dpkg --configure -a` then
[21:30] <sebsebseb> teward: don't use the d. and you can try and do a fix install on the terminal like teward is suggesting
[21:30] <teward> sebsebseb: they were here earlier about nginx compiled on 15.04, and got the big "EOL!" notice :P
[21:30] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: abo
[21:30] <teward> sebsebseb: *cough* mishighlight
[21:30] <sebsebseb> a bove
[21:30] <sebsebseb> teward: ye
[21:30] <sebsebseb> s
[21:31] <sebsebseb> both of you have t names
[21:31] <curlyears> thanlsagain, filk
[21:31] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: you really don't want the -d
[21:31] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: that's pobably why it's gone wrong as well
[21:31] <TAFB2> i didn't use the -d before
[21:32] <sebsebseb> you gave a command with a -d ?
[21:32] <TAFB2> google said use -d if it stopped in the install
[21:32] <sebsebseb> teward: yes 15.04 is end of life, but can try and support some one to upgraade to 15.10
[21:32] <sebsebseb> here
[21:32] <TAFB2> my upgrade to 15.10 stalled at "The user `syslog' is already a member of `adm'."
[21:33] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: try a fix install, and don't use the -d at all, and google said aye, what's your link?
[21:33] <bitMAN> Anybody knows when 16.04 is coming out?
[21:33] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: also you will probably need all the updates installed in your 15.04 install, before it will let you upgrade to 15.10
[21:33] <teward> sebsebseb: i'm aware - when they were here earlier it wasn't at that point
[21:33] <sebsebseb> TAFB2: 15.04 is dead, but I think the repos are still there frozen with the last stuff
[21:33] <teward> !ubuntu+1 | bitMAN
[21:33] <teward> !16.04 | bitMAN
[21:33] <TAFB2> when I ran "sudo dpkg --configure -a" it also stalled at "The user `syslog' is already a member of `adm'." :(
[21:34] <sebsebseb> bitMAN: Thursday
[21:35] <bitMAN> Awesome teward! Thank you!
[21:35] <longwuyuan> if i install xenial beta-2 today, will I have to do dist-upgrade or just update tomorrow ?
[21:35] <TAFB2> gotta run, we can fix "Setting up rsyslog (8.12.0-1ubuntu2) ..." when I get back :)
[21:35] <sebsebseb> longwuyuan: it will just stay on 16.04 I think
[21:35] <sebsebseb> !+1
[21:35] <sebsebseb> !16.04
[21:37] <k1l> longwuyuan: run the updates will bring you to final  (sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade)
[21:37] <davidmichaelkarr> For quite a while now I have had a 14.04 VM that works as expected when I press "Alt+x" in Emacs.  I just created a 15.10 VM that I'm attempting to configure similarly, but the Alt key is seemingly ignored in that VM.  I know I must have done something a long time ago in the 14.04 VM, but I don't remember exactly what it is.  I don't see any obvious dot
[21:37] <davidmichaelkarr> files in my homedir that would configure this.  What is the most likely way to configure this?
[21:37] <brainwash> !final
[21:37] <sebsebseb> brainwash: just upgrade on Thursday or a bit after
[21:38] <longwuyuan> sebsebseb, k1l : thnx. i asked because i need to use the ubuntukylin iso
[21:39] <longwuyuan> sebsebseb, k1l : noob question. full-upgrade and dist-upgrade do different things ?
[21:40] <thechanceg> my keychain seems unable to remember my credentials for a network drive? I have to re-enter the user/pass after every restart, regardless of what I choose for remembering. Synology drive if that matters. all other remembered passwords/unlock upon login seems to work. Any ideas?
[21:40] <k1l> longwuyuan: on the new command "apt" instaed of "apt-get" they renamed it because people get confused with "apt-get dist-upgrade" beeing an upgrade to the next ubuntu version, which it isnt
[21:41] <longwuyuan> k1l: much clear now. thnx. this does not change for ubuntukylin is'nt it ?
[21:41] <k1l> longwuyuan: its the same on the kylin edition
[21:42] <it> hi
[21:42] <longwuyuan> k1l:thnx
[21:43] <longwuyuan> anyone using broadcom 43a3 wifi
[21:44] <longwuyuan> anyone using Skylake
[21:45] <longwuyuan> Is skylake support mentioned anywhere for xenial ?
[21:45] <k1l> longwuyuan: the kernel support it, right?
[21:46] <longwuyuan> k1l:xenial beta-2 made everything work yes. but unity hangs like clockwork every so many minutes
[21:47] <k1l> look at the logs what is going wrong
[21:48] <longwuyuan> k1l : that is my problem that am not able to solve. complete silence in logs. have not increased debug level anywhere. just needed to get my XPS13 going
[21:49] <k1l> well, i would talk to the dell sputnik guys, who focus on the ubuntu running on the xps
[21:49] <longwuyuan> k1l : would that be "#sputnik"...anywhere i can lookup
[21:50] <k1l> sorry dont know where they hang out.
[21:50] <longwuyuan> k1l : ok .. will check
[21:50] <k1l> https://sputnik.github.io/
[22:05] <deniz946> hello, one question ,i have 1 hdd and 1 ssd and, the hdd is my STORAGE drive and i want it to mount automaticaly on startup, how i could do it? i have it UUID and it's ntfs, but don't know what exactly i should type in the fstab file
[22:11] <WARlrus> Hey - I'm having trouble with a vpn through pptp-linux - it seems I can get a connection, but running something like `ping -I ppp0 google.com` doesn't work, any suggestions on how to debug?

[22:12] <deniz946> deniz946, can you explain it for me please?

[22:19] <Mido> hi
[22:20] <reisio> hi Mido
[22:22] <Mido> I have got an problem when I watch full screen video on google chrome and change the volume setting from my laptop bottom everythink get freeze
[22:23] <reisio> Mido: could be your volume changing is triggering an onscreen notification, which is b0rking up your graphics driver
[22:24] <reisio> likely one of these will circumvent it: 1) disable compositing/accelerated wm/effects 2) disable notifications 3) change graphics driver
[22:24] <reisio> Mido: 4) stop using a stupid proprietary closed source browser
[22:24] <reisio> :D
[22:25] <TheOuterLinux> Chrome based browsers literally just crash my whole system every time. Its usually on sites with  flash video. I only use it for Google drive purposes. This includes both Chrome and Chromium. However, it won't on an OpeneSUSE Studio appliance I made.
[22:26] <Tex_Nick> reisio: awww chrome aint that bad
[22:27] <reisio> Tex_Nick: bad? It's exactly what I said
[22:27] <reisio> binary builds of any browser are going to tend to suck
[22:27] <Tex_Nick> hmmm well firefox plugin-container has it's problems also
[22:27] <reisio> Firefox binaries from Mozilla suck, too
[22:27] <reisio> we have distro-specific binary builders/maintainers for a reason; so we don't hate ourselves
[22:27] <reisio> Tex_Nick: yup
[22:27] <k1l> TheOuterLinux: start chrome from a terminal and see what errors come up
[22:28] <Tex_Nick> chrome seems to be best alternative for drm atm ?
[22:28] <reisio> alternative to what
[22:29] <Tex_Nick> reisio: well yes what ???
[22:29] <TheOuterLinux> Oh....proprietary stuff like flash.
[22:32] <carpediembaby> hello, i have an ubuntu 14.04 install but the trackpad keeps disappearing randomly. It comes back when i restart. I have tried to reload psmouse but this sometimes works and other times not. Also tried setting org.settings.daemon-plugins.cursor true but this didn't help either
[22:32] <d4rklit3> hi
[22:32] <d4rklit3> what is the cron expression for once every 2 hours?
[22:32] <reisio> Tex_Nick: for what, netflix?
[22:32] <carpediembaby> Can someone suggest a more permanent fix than having to restart every time this happens?
[22:32] <reisio> Tex_Nick: you can use chrome's binary blobs with chromium if you want; or you can use pipelight; or you can not waste time on netflix
[22:33] <TheOuterLinux> The pipelight method is ok. I hate having to use wine though.
[22:34] <ratrace> d4rklit3: 0 */2   first two columns
[22:34] <carpediembaby> Or at least to reliably bring the cursor back without restarting. Also, the mouse is visible if I connect a usb mouse
[22:35] <Tex_Nick> reisio: i use mostly firefox, but for netflix yes i use chrome & I've used both silverlight & pipelight kludges with fire fox in past ... chrome works fine for me though ... firefox also except for plugin-container locking up entire browser with some content
[22:37] <carpediembaby> The pointer is otherwise functional (i can see the highlighting of links change when the mouse moves and I can also click) but the cursor is just not visible
[22:37] <Tex_Nick> reisio: tis not really fair to classify chrome in such a negative perspective ? ;-)
[22:39] <d4rklit3> ratrace I accidentally did * */2
[22:39] <d4rklit3> hilarity ensued
[22:40] <Mido> guys, any one please can give some advice about metasploitable, If i install it on VM on my personal computer it my heart my pc

[23:02] <Guest7983> Hello, I have a problem with SAMBA and printing. I get the errormessage “E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) ” and "Gestopt - Backend /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb does not exist!" How can I fix it?

[23:06] <Guest7983> reisio: I have a brother and it seams that SAMBA is broken, maybe more
[23:07] <XDS2010> thewhitehat: in reading your convo from earlier i can see where raid with disc overburn could be helpful for instance in a distributed computing chain
[23:07] <XDS2010> disk*
[23:08] <reisio> Guest7983: a brother you say, interesting
[23:10] <terratoma> i think i am running into this bug in ubuntu 14.04 and preseed and kickstarting https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1347726
[23:10] <Guest7983> reisio: the problems started with SAMBA. The Brother is conected to an XP computer. It worked, but the XP decided to quit. so I installed it to another XP and copied the printa in linux and wanted to change the path. afterwards samba was broken.
[23:10] <terratoma> how can i tell the installer, with preseed, to just overwrite the existing partitions ?
[23:11] <Guest7983> reisio: now I have no SAMBA installed and can't install SAMBA again
[23:12] <Guest7983> reisio: if I try to install SAMBA I get: http://pastebin.com/TNrq3j8B
[23:14] <__chroma> how would i go about repairing a NTFS partition in ubuntu?
[23:16] <Narwhaal> I still don't understand why guest asked this question in ##windows
[23:17] <reisio> Narwhaal: he's sharing a computer from windows, over the network
[23:18] <Narwhaal> I know
[23:18] <Narwhaal> I'll repeat
[23:18] <reisio> now what _I_ don't understand, is why _you_ would ask /that/ question in #ubuntu :p
[23:18] <Narwhaal> I still don't understand why guest asked this question in ##windows

[23:19] <reisio> Narwhaal: that question, yup
[23:19] <Narwhaal> so keep asking in the channel of the host OS
[23:19] <Narwhaal> genius

[23:20] <Narwhaal> dunno what I done ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[23:20] <reisio> nobody seems to care for it :p
[23:20] <reisio> that's what twitter's for
[23:21] <Narwhaal> reisio: if he's clever enough to try and install samba he should know the host OS anyway
[23:21] <Narwhaal> anyway I'll just idle and enjoy the show
[23:21] <k1l> Narwhaal: drop that drama. be helpfull and try to solve the issue for that user. but what you are doing is not helpfull in any way.
[23:21] <Narwhaal> really ..
[23:22] <reisio> Narwhaal: don't sweat it
[23:22] <queraxa> !urmum k
[23:22] <Narwhaal> I ask one question .. and I get a request for leave :/

[23:27] <Shai-Tan> what could possibly go wrong
[23:27] <reisio> teward: it's tangible
[23:27] <reisio> Shai-Tan: not much I wouldn't think
[23:27] <reisio> but I have the benefit of not being able to be sued for having said that :D
[23:28] <k1l> reisio: its not finale yet. it still gets testing
[23:29] <reisio> k1l: uhuh
[23:29] <Guest7983> k1l, reisio: I will take a shower now. Hope afterwards someone has an idea how I can fix SAMBA and afterwards the printer.
[23:30] <reisio> Guest7983: probably; sorry I don't rely on Windows much or I'd have more information myself
[23:30] <reisio> Guest7983: /nick sambaguy when you're back :D

[23:43] <Andy___> hi...does chromium work with google chromecast?
[23:43] <Andy___> i'm using lubuntu
[23:44] <reisio> Andy___: I'd probably just use VNC
[23:44] <k1l> Andy___: yes. install the chromecast plugin
[23:44] <k1l> "google cast" is the name
[23:45] <Andy___> how do I get chromium on lubuntu please?
[23:45] <reisio> should be in ordinary repos
[23:45] <k1l> Andy___: chromium is in the ubuntu repos.
[23:45] <reisio> apt-get install
[23:45] <k1l> Andy___: intsall the chromium-browser package
[23:46] <genii> !info chromium-browser
[23:46] <genii> May need to enable universe
[23:46] <k1l> yeah, good hint
[23:49] <Guest7983> nick:, are you the sambaguy?
[23:49] <Guest7983> nick: are you the sambaguy?
[23:49] <Guest7983> reisio: think nick is not online
[23:50] <reisio> /nick sambaguy
[23:51] <Andy___> do you recommend chromium or chrome?
[23:51] <reisio> chromium
[23:51] <reisio> it's the wesley snipes of googley browsers
[23:52] <Earforce> Guest7983,
[23:52] <Earforce> ln -s `which smbspool` /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb
[23:52] <k1l> Andy___: chrome is chromium+google-stuff. its both the same codebase.
[23:53] <reisio> probably why he asked about those two specifically
[23:54] <Guest7983> reisio: don't realy get you
[23:56] <Andy___> i read that chrome updates automatically and chromium is not, you have to update chromium manually. is that correct?
