[00:01] Wulf, Done. I manually set the time, and now I'll let ntp take care of it. Thanks for your help :-) [00:03] fathomstory: have you set up your disk with all the partitions? [00:05] im having a hard time installing torch on 16.04 -.- [00:12] ahh it's a wonderful day [00:16] anyone tell me how to automount UDF-fs formatted dvd's ? iso format automounts and UDF blurays automount [00:17] sooo..... got and hp laptop with uefi and hp recovery partitions and windows 10, I used to delete all recovery partitions and move everything around but I really want to just shrink the windows 10 partition and install grub to the mbr, can I still do this, this old school way?? [00:19] torch is not installing on 16.04 [00:19] i started the installer and it want to install grub to the /dev/sda so is it reasonable to assume it will go smoothly // [00:19] I might have to downgrade to 16.04 [00:19] ??* [00:20] is uefi only a issue if secureboot or whatever is enabled ? [00:20] robotdevil1: I did something similar last week; I booted the Ubuntu live ISO, did 'Try' then used gparted to shrink the Windows file-system as small as possible, then 'dd'-ed the start of the disk and each partition to a USB flash storage device [00:21] TJ-: like a backup?? [00:21] robotdevil1: if the disk has GPT then "dd if=/dev/sdX bs=512 count=34 of=/dev/sd${TARGET}" will copy over the primary GPT [00:22] anyone feel up for a challenge? The 16.04 upgrade borked my server a bit, and I need help getting it to work again, hah [00:22] robotdevil1: then i did "partprobe /dev/sd${TARGET}" and then copied over the partitions with, for each, "dd if=/dev/sdX${PARTNUM} bs=100M of=/dev/sd${TARGET}${PARTNUM}" [00:22] DNS resolving has failed, and x is no longer starting [00:23] just wondering, i have an msata drive and a normal hdd in my machine. the msata gets picked up as /dev/sdb ... is there a way to make this /dev/sda ? [00:23] robotdevil1: and finally I added the correct secondary GPT table at the end of the target with "sfdisk --move-second-header /dev/sd${TARGET}" (which actually recreates it if it isn't there, from the primary header) [00:24] TJ-: Im sort of following, are you saying this was all necessary? [00:24] drong0: robotdevil1 GPT has primary table (34 sectors) at start and the secondary the same at the end of the device [00:24] robotdevil1: in order to make the backup target correct and bootable too, yes [00:24] oh [00:25] drong0: sorry, got your nickname by mistake [00:25] TJ-, you're cool man! [00:25] drong0: why do you want to rename the devices? any reference to their contents should be using UUIDs so the device name doesn't matter [00:26] TJ-: so basically whatever the GPT partition is it has to have a wrapper so to say and then the free space after I can install too? [00:26] TJ-, just a pedantic boy [00:27] robotdevil1: GPT uses the 1st 34 sectors (by default), actually sector 1-33. sector 0 is left for a hybrid/protective msdos MBR partition table too [00:27] robotdevil1: and GPT puts the secondary (backup) table in the final 34 sectors of the device... so to do a correct copy you have to take care of that [00:29] robotdevil1: so if you pre-shrink the Windows NTFS partition so it doesn't take up unnecessary space when transferred to the target (which is generally a much smaller device) it saves time and means you can likely put the file-systems from a 128GiB+ PC into a 32GiB USB Flash device [00:30] drong0: well, you could write udev rules for it but I think you'd cause more hassle than its worth. [00:30] TJ-, all good , appreciate it. ill live with it hehe === DJ__ is now known as fkinwordpress [00:33] Hey All, can anyone advise me on how to update the permalink structure of my wordpress website? [00:33] I am so utterly lost [00:34] and I've been at it for a number of days :| [00:35] fkinwordpress, didn't know this was #wordpress [00:36] drong0, didn't know that existed. nom nom nom [00:37] yum!!!! [00:38] is virtualbox the best vm host available for ubuntu? [00:39] fkinwordpress: you are looking for #apache i think [00:39] or #wordpress [00:39] fkinwordpress, it can be done within wordpress (should have it under settings) or you can do .htaccess [00:39] @phanes, Virtualbox should be suitable for running ubuntu in a VM, how powerful is your machine? [00:40] its pretty powerful [00:40] @drong, yeah the menu inside wordpress for permalinks is a whoreable lie [00:40] it does nothing [00:40] @Phanes yeah man you're good get an ISO and get into it! [00:40] was hoping for something a little more seamless [00:40] fkinwordpress, just ditch wordpress me thinks ha [00:41] @Phanes Have you heard of Unity or seamless mode? [00:41] sounds like gui shit [00:41] @Phanes you might aso consider updating to the latest bulding os 10 Pro if you ahve it. Its has a built in subsystem that so far is legit [00:41] oops pardon my frenchy [00:41] @drong Fact But I'm not sure what I could replace it with [00:42] please stop using twitter tags on irc [00:44] fkinwordpress, no need for the amperand before a nick here. type type the person's nick or use [00:44] !tab [00:44] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.

[00:54] not me because I already knew cuz I'm smart and own a mac [00:54] im using ubuntu [00:54] with windows sound [00:54] AND ITS SOOOOOOOOOO FUKING ANNOYING [00:55] AARGH [00:55] MINTRULES5384534: What is your life!? [00:55] THAT LOGIN SOUND [00:55] I would not be able to stand th-- I KNOW! [00:55] and The FONTS!? [00:55] you gotta be kidding me with the fonts [00:55] ARRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh [00:55] alrighty, after a long and lengthy battle with 14.04 and zentyal, I finally fixed all the issues. Thank you SO MUCH everybody especially TJ- and Wulf and everybody that pitched in. Y'all saved muh booty and I'm all the grateful <3 [00:55] have a good night erybody [00:55] donu7, jack your big booty !!!! [00:56] anyone tell me how to automount UDF-fs formatted dvd's ? iso format automounts and UDF blurays automount correctly [00:57] has anyone installed torch on 16.04 [01:00] cany anyone speak to the benefits of ZFS? I want to use that at home for my file server [01:02] fkinwordpress - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZFS has a pretty good writeup === Wulf4 is now known as Wulf [01:08] http://askubuntu.com/questions/762826/finding-the-ip-of-a-hub-connected-to-the-router please have a look at my question. It is related to rDNS somehow [01:11] elisa87_: connect the device directly to a PC and use "ip neigh show" to discover its MAC address, and monitor the interface using tcpdump to see if it is trying to obtain an address via DHCP, or used a statically configured IP [01:12] Hydr0p0nX: i notice the zfs ubuntu wiki page doesn't mention the legal problems... [01:14] zykotick9: OT for this channel [01:14] I LOVE YOU ALL MY LITTLE KITTIES KBAI [01:15] Hey people. In ubuntu 16.04, my laptop's touchpad doesn't do right click. any ideas? [01:15] i mean the physical right click button [01:15] left click only works while i have a finger on the touchpad as well [01:17] heyho folks. we found a bug in the "watchdog.service" file (missing quoute). how should we report it? do we have to use this nerving "ubuntu-bug" tool or can we simply create a bug report on launchpad? [01:17] voidDotClass: open a terminal, execute "xev" ... move the pointer over the small xev GUI window that appears, then press the right button and see if any events are reported by xev in the terminal. Press Ctrl+C to stop the program, or press its GUI exit icon [01:18] lemoer: you can create the bug report directly on launchpad, if you're logged in there should be a link top-right of the page when you're looking at the bug list for the affected package [01:19] Boot-repair-disc is useless [01:19] lemoer: "Report a bug" top-right at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/watchdog [01:19] Cannot fix grub error [01:19] TJ-: thank you very much! :) [01:21] guys i tried to usb install both ubuntu and lubuntu 16.04, but but sometimes after the partitioning process and beginning the installation process, my laptop shut down itself in both times , why is this ? [01:21] * zykotick9 notes that "ubuntu-bug PACKAGENAME" gives developers/bug-tracking team a lot of good information... but _might_ not be suppied via the web site... [01:21] s/but/that/ [01:21] pitiye_, maybe it's overheating. [01:22] B0g4r7: but now i am on 15.04, and its not overheating [01:22] zykotick9: when we already know the problem and the solution it is unnecessary noise and frustration [01:22] Maybe it needs some kind of thermal management software that is not active at install time...maybe. === annasha_ is now known as annasha [01:22] TJ-: fair enough... [01:23] You may find that if you try it in a cool environment with lots of airflow it makes it through. [01:23] zykotick9: lemoer said it was a simple typo in a service file [01:23] B0g4r7: it looks like the only way for me to install it using a cross-install , what is the best way to do it ? unetbootin /hard disk option does not work. [01:23] Or I could be completely wrong. === cwp is now known as roadHockey [01:23] anyone know why ubuntu would be installing mdadm and iscsi and lxcfs by default? [01:23] TJ-: i wasn't refering to _this_ case at all... just "generally" [01:24] zykotick9: ahh, yes, for weird stuff you've got no idea on of course [01:24] Cross-install huh. Install on machine a, boot on b? [01:25] B0g4r7: something like wubi would do it , from linux [01:27] TJ-, no events are reported when i press the physical left / right click buttons on the touchpad, but moving the pointer on the touchpad itself shows events, and if i have a finger on the touchpad and press the physical left click button, then the buttonreleaseevent and a few others are reported [01:28] pitiye_, fwiw, one of my systems here, during a number of fresh installs, I had to keep a fan on full blowing directly onto it because of thermal issues. Once the install was done, it was fine. [01:29] squinty: TY for ur info , i will take your opinion ! [01:30] pitiye_, worth a try anyways :) [01:30] squinty: (Y) [01:31] <[Saint]> I have a bit of a specialty question that isn't necessarily Ubuntu-specific, though I am using Ubuntu Server machines jammed in the mix also. Anyway: Is there any reason to expect X.11 forwarding to fall over if there is one or more ssh forwarding agents in the middle of the local and remote? [01:31] <[Saint]> Everything in the path is configured to sh x.11 forwarding. [01:31] <[Saint]> Or should I be looking elsewhere as to why this isn't working for me? [01:32] voidDotClass: are you pressing the buttons whilst the pointer is over the xev GUI window (click it first) because it must have input focus [01:32] TJ-, yes, and clicking via the touchpad is working, only via the physical buttons is it not working [01:32] <[Saint]> X.11 forwarding works as expected if I do like: local->remote. [01:33] voidDotClass: hmmm, sounds like an evdev issue (event devices) [01:33] TJ-, no easy fix? [01:33] <[Saint]> But if I do it like: local->ssh-forwarding-agent-remote, X.11 forwarding seems to fall over. [01:33] <[Saint]> errr, *local->ssh-forwarding-agent->remote [01:34] TJ-, you might remember you helped me the other day in #linux? [01:34] voidDotClass: "apt-get install evtest" and then "sudo evtest" select the touchpad and see what you get [01:34] ok, will do, i'm reinstaling right now [01:34] <[Saint]> ANy ideas what tree I might bark up for this? Any ssh/X compositor wizards around? [01:34] voidDotClass: I'v been to sleep since then; seriously, I couldn't recall helping someone just 2 hours ago... it all becomes a blur :D [01:35] voidDotClass: I've been working on some bugs with devices not correctly recognised but don't think your issue is directly related [01:35] haha TJ- . i had just bought a new laptop and i was having issues, you told me to try ocpi_osi etc [01:36] voidDotClass: oh, yes!! I neeeded that myself this weekend for a new Asus T300chi - usb touchscreen digitizer wouldn't show up when the PC booted on AC power... needed "acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2013" " [01:36] TJ-, yes, i remmeber you had an asus device as well :) [01:37] voidDotClass: yeah, I remember looking at your ACPI DSDT now [01:37] TJ-: oh... evtest is neat, i'd never heard of it before. thanks. [01:37] TJ-, actually i managed to get it working without having to do any of that, just had to install ubuntu, then log on under advanced -> resume, run ubuntu-drivers and install the nvidia driver, and reboot, and then it worked [01:38] zykotick9: yeah, nothing like having problems for discovering fab tools :D [01:38] but one problem i had was, on the boot screen where it asks for password, it wouldnt let me enter the pw [01:38] so i tried installing without a hd password, and that works [01:38] TJ-: hehe ya, i've been there ;) [01:38] i'm now trying to reinstall w/ the hd password [01:38] voidDotClass: ahhh, the proprietary drivers were required [01:38] TJ-, yeah [01:38] any idea why it doesnt accept keyboard input on the pw screen? [01:39] voidDotClass: what is generating that request? is it the boot manager, or the kernel's initrd scripts, or something else? === nepgear is now known as Guest8172 [01:39] voidDotClass: it depends at what point in time it occurs as to what devices have been initialized [01:39] TJ-, i don't know, but its the screen where it asks for security key to unlock hd [01:39] Hi, Do all synaptic touchpads have a 3 button mode? my touchpad control panel doesn't mention a 3rd button. [01:39] if you select to encrypt hd during install, then you get that screen on boot to unlock the hd [01:39] voidDotClass: oh, is this for the LUKS/dm-crypt FDE passphrase? [01:39] sda crypt i believe, yes TJ- [01:40] voidDotClass: sorry, thought you meant a literal password in the disk drive itself! [01:40] nah [01:40] TJ-, it works if i dont install the nvidia drivers [01:40] but after installing them it doesnt let me put in the pw [01:40] Rhorse: my synaptic touchpad only has two buttons... the pointer one has three... [01:40] voidDotClass: well, during a normal regular GUI boot plymouth splash screen is up, and it should display a small text input box asking for the passphrase - is that what you see? [01:41] Rhorse: "mode" <- sorry missed that part... [01:41] TJ-, not sure what plymouth is, but i see the ubuntu logo followed by textbox to enter passphrase [01:41] but it doesnt accept my keyboard input [01:41] after installing the nvidia drivers [01:41] voidDotClass: 'plymouth' is the tool that draws the splash screen and accepts input from user [01:42] ok [01:43] Rhorse: i'd guess "yes" all touchpad _should_ probably be able to do a 3rd button... physically my 1&2 buttons together = 3rd button press... 3rd buttons and wheels have been supported in xorg forever... [01:43] voidDotClass: OK, then the thing to check is whether the kernel's command line has a "vt.handoff=..." parameter. you'd need to get into the GRUB menu at boot-time by holding Shift key down, then highlighting the entry, pressing 'e' and navigating to the line starting 'linux ...' [01:44] will try that TJ- . could it have anything to do with running or not running 'sudo update-initramfs -u' after installing the nvidia driver? [01:44] voidDotClass: the GUI is supposed to be on VT7 (tty7) but if that setting is missing it may be on VT1. You may simply need to alter VT focus by pressing Alt+F1 for VT1, or Alt+F7 for VT7, to set the input focus. That has caught me out a few times [01:44] zykotick9: on my Dell, you get 3 button functionality by pressing the two buttons at same time. I don't get that with my Clevo touchpad.... [01:45] zykotick9: maybe I need to add a conf file to /etc/X11/..? [01:45] Rhorse: ummmm.... i have NO freaking idea.... sorry, but i'm the wrong person - i'm NOT up on latest touchpad stuff AT ALL!!! or any latest hardware :| [01:47] Rhorse: a snippit <- or whatever the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/FOO stuff is called, might solve your issue... but i have NO idea what you might need in there. best of luck. [01:47] I'd just like to get regular scroll gesture support working on this touchpad! it's a real pain having to point the pointer to a scrollbar and drag it [01:48] Rhorse: i'm gonna +1 zykotick9, i'd look at the conf files in X11, i had to do that for synaptics to get middle click/paste working [01:49] Rhorse: look under /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ to begin with [01:49] Has anyone else run into this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/760345/cannot-import-saved-openvpn-configuration-file-in-ubuntu-16-04-lts [01:49] My login screen seems very zoomed in. All the UI elements are very large. Unity does not have the same issue when logged in. Are there UI scaling options for larger resolutions that could be causing this? I have a 3k screen. [01:49] I just got hit with this when I tried to setup OpenVPN by importing the config in network manager. [01:49] ToeSnacks: you mean the Greeter ? are you using 16.04 Xenial? [01:49] TJ-: yes I am running 16.04 [01:50] TJ-, is there anything in ubuntu which would auto turn off your keyboard backlit keys? my laptop has a thing in windows where if i leave it idle, the keyboard backlit turns off automatically, then turns back on when i come back [01:50] TJ-: I believe it's LightDM [01:50] ToeSnacks: I've seen that, sometimes it flicks from native res to a lower res [01:50] the resolution doesn't seem to actually change, just the element scale. [01:51] ToeSnacks: bug 1571640 [01:51] bug 1571640 in lightdm (Ubuntu) "lightdm changing resolution" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1571640 [01:51] ToeSnacks: hmmm, yes, it could be that too I guess. I assumed it was altering the res to 800x600 or something [01:51] vervet: that "middle click paste" is 3rd button ;) [01:52] yeah it looks like 800x600 size wise but my display looks very blurry at all but native res and it still looks sharp which leads my to believe the resolution is unchanged. [01:53] ToeSnacks: right, I think that observation fits my case too... so possibly a scaling issue [01:54] vervet: TJ- zykotick9 Thank's guys. That's what I was after the middle click paste button. At least I have an idea where to start now... [01:54] TJ-: I can log back out and verify the resolution for you if you like [01:54] ToeSnacks: when it happens might be worth Ctrl+Alt+F1, log-in, find the .Xauthority file lightdm is using (under /var/lib/lightdm/ I believe) and using it with xrandr to query the screen resolution - or look at /var/log/lightdm/Xorg.log [01:55] TJ-: yeah I'll do that and update the bug with my findings [01:55] thanks [01:55] ToeSnacks: I've subscribed to that bug now [01:55] Hmm it seems openvpn is very broken upon inspection post update to 16.04 for me. :/ [01:56] wldcordeiro: have you determined what is going wrong? is it a simple 'permission denied' copying the file, or a parse error reading the config file (check /var/log/syslog) [01:56] wldcordeiro: I think it'll be in network-manager-openvpn if it is a parse error [01:56] wldcordeiro: pretty sure I dealt with a bug like that sometime in the last 6 months, rings a bell [01:57] TJ-: So from the UI I got that bug but in the terminal if I do sudo openvpn path/to/config/config.ovpn it fails with [01:58] Failed to try-restart nscd.service: Unit nscd.service not found.

[02:01] anyone has any idea? [02:01] yeah its 14.04.2 [02:01] alu: that looks like you've got an older kernel on very new hardware, and the kernel doesn't know how to handle some bits [02:01] the kernel is older [02:01] alu: I'd recommend trying with the 14.04.4 ISO [02:02] it has what kernel? [02:02] alu: the kernel from wily, 4.2 [02:02] (i think that's correct) [02:02] theres no 14.04.4 for ubuntu mate [02:03] sup everyone === gm is now known as Guest78682 [02:03] alu: this is it http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04.4/ [02:04] thats unity? [02:04] hello everyone. I have a question concerning system notifications balloons, they get stuffed into a buffer in ubuntu 14, is there a utility or an adjustment to change how this works? [02:04] oh, you meant "Ubuntu Mate" not "ubuntu, mate" :) [02:04] yeah lol [02:04] Hey, anyone know how to get my workstation to stop booting up the the login with the main monitor set to secondary. [02:04] alu: there is no 14.04 for "Ubuntu Mate" [02:05] There is only one monitor and it keeps making it secondary [02:05] alu: you can install that, then do "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-mate-desktop" [02:05] TJ-, $vt_handoff is present in the options [02:05] SuperBawlz: that's based on the GPU's ordering of the connectors, one is primary, and it'll adopt that at boot-time [02:06] but it still doesn't accept my input on the passphrase screen [02:06] get ubuntu server then? [02:06] voidDotClass: OK, so try using the Alt+F1 Alt+F7 trick to force focus to change and change bac [02:06] TJ-, what is that trick? [02:06] TJ- it doesn't though. I have moved my cable physically and it just changes it. The other thing, why does it think that there are two monitors when there is only one? [02:07] alu: you could do, or do a debootstrap of ubuntu-minimal from the Live ISO boot [02:07] SuperBawlz: that sounds like the GPU/driver are getting confused then. Check /var/log/Xorg.0.log [02:08] voidDotClass: pressing those key combinations to change to a different VT and back again, if it is the input-focus-is-on-wrong-VT then that'll force it back to the GUI [02:08] voidDotClass: if it isn't that then we can only assume the input device you're using hasn't got its drivers loaded [02:09] TJ-, this seems related to the nvidia display drivers, it works when i dont have the nvidia drivers, stops working once i install those drivers === seedwalk is now known as feeedeeee [02:10] voidDotClass: that is worth reporting a bug then. That prompt occurs from the initial ramdisk when no GPU drivers should have been loaded [02:11] voidDotClass: within the initrd.img, scripts/local-top/cryptroot runs, then it asks plymouth to ask you for the passphrase. plymouth uses that vt.handoff value to work on the correct GUI VT [02:11] voidDotClass: hmmm... and now this jogs my memory... i think a few years ago this bug was fixed [02:11] TJ-, and? [02:12] it doesnt seem to have been fixed [02:12] the grub menu is not loaded when I boot the computer. can anyone help [02:15] voidDotClass: ahhh, it was in 2010 and not quite the same as yours, although it was nvidia + plymouth (no enter key working) bug 552660 [02:15] bug 552660 in plymouth (Ubuntu) "Plymouth prevents busybox accepting Enter key" [Low,Expired] https://launchpad.net/bugs/552660 [02:16] looks like it expired? TJ- [02:17] yes, I don't think I ever needed to resolve the reason since a newer version of plymouth solved it [02:17] voidDotClass: but your symptoms are interestingly similar [02:17] voidDotClass: do the Alt+F1 etc work, because that proves the keyboard is working so we can eliminate missing drivers [02:18] TJ-, nothing happened on alt f1 and i'm just reinstalling now without hd encryption [02:18] if i should report it as a bug lemme know [02:19] voidDotClass: so there was no response to the keyboard? that suggests the keyboard drivers were missing, or didn't configure correctly by that point. Is it a USB keyboard? [02:20] anyone have a working radeon 16.04 desktop? [02:20] TJ-, no, internal, and keyboard works fine all the time except when i install nvidia drivers and go to the hd unencrypt screen [02:20] is alt + f1 even supposed to work on that screen [02:20] alt + f1 is only once you are logged on [02:20] Hello everyone, my laptop only boots at acpi=off parameter. This hides the battery icons and battery management things. How do I go around this problem? [02:21] voidDotClass: Yes, it's a core service by the kernel. For X and the GUI you're thinking of Ctrl+Alt+F1 etc [02:22] TJ-, oh, i had tried ctrl + alt + f1 [02:22] i got them confused [02:22] voidDotClass: aha :) [02:22] TJ-, i'm now reinstalling without the hd encryption [02:22] so i cant go back and test [02:22] voidDotClass: you can boot a linux system and use all the VTs by switching using Alt+Fx [02:23] hello there, i am trying to extend my root partition but not able to, any help [02:24] voidDotClass: OK, well, it would be interesting to find out if the keyboard works at that point. Once you have it installed, do a boot where you go into the GRUB menu... edit the boot entry and add to the "linux ..." line "break=init" and then press F10 (Ctlr+X) and that will drop you to the (initramfs) shell prompt - see if you have keyboard input [02:25] TJ-, sorry, i'm not interested in fucking w/ my system anymore. if i can do a bug report without changing any settings, lemme know [02:25] voidDotClass: if no input then we know its a general keyboard driver issue [02:25] TJ-, why would a keyboard driver issue show up only w/ nvidia drivers and only on that screen [02:25] voidDotClass: I'm not asking you to change settings; just do a boot test with alternative options, its a one off [02:25] it works fine after booting into ubuntu [02:25] all right TJ- [02:25] i'll try that [02:26] voidDotClass: well it would, because once the initd has handed over to the system init daemon that will load all required drivers, at which point that may include the drivers required for the keyboard [02:26] there are two partition /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 sda1 is primary one, i tried to delete sda2 then tried resize2fs /dev/sda2 but no success in increase my primary partition size [02:26] voidDotClass: if there's some kind of nvidia interaction causing this, that would also be useful to know about [02:28] sailendra: if you've deleted /dev/sda2 you cannot then resize it. sounds like what you need to do is extend /dev/sda1 to use the space freed by deleting sda2. You could do that with gparted. After that you can "resize2fs /dev/sda1" and it'll use the new space [02:28] hi [02:29] voidDotClass: good luck with that; way past my bedtime here so I'm off [02:29] TJ-: sorry my mistake i did resize2fs /dev/sda1 but it shows message that block is already x block long nad nothing to do [02:29] Question df -h hows /dev/sda6 as 100% full how do I see what is being used on it. I am connecting over ssh [02:30] MannyLNJ: "du -d 2 /path/to/mountpoint | sort -n" will list the first 2 levels of directories sorted by size === King is now known as prince [02:33] TJ-: i am trying to extend my root parition but its not working [02:33] my laptop only boots at acpi=off parameter. This hides the battery icons and battery management things. How do I go around this problem? [02:33] TJ-, thanks I think it is hung it printed one Permission denied and then stopped. No shell prompt shows [02:33] arshad: don't disable ACPI; try to find some lesser set of ACPI option changes that will help it boot. [02:34] MannyLNJ: if its a large file-system it could take a long time, it has to read every directory and file metadata block [02:34] TJ-, I see, I will continue to wait [02:35] MannyLNJ: or you could start another ssh session and check if that first du process is stuck :D [02:35] TJ-, You were correct. it finished. i have mo idea what I am looking at though [02:36] MannyLNJ: you're looking at a directory listing, with the bytes used in the left column, sorted by size. that allows you to explore the directories that use the most space [02:37] MannyLNJ: e.g. say the last line says "2500000000 /var/cache/" you could explore that directory with "/du -d 2 /var/cache | sort -n" to identify which directories under it use the most. Repeat that process for exploring further and locating files that can be deleted [02:39] TJ-, Ok it lookes like /media/emanuel uses the most space under /media/emanuel there is TOSHIBA EXT and USB_HDD_01 I see accourding to mount /deb/sdb1 is mounted at /media/emanuel/TOSHIBA EXT so i guess I need to look at TOSHIA EXT? === linuxaddicts is now known as linuxgeek [02:40] any help :) [02:51] hello in here [02:51] our out there, whatever [02:53] hmm cant get 16.04 to install on this asus laptop [02:53] stuck at 'preparing to install Ubuntu' [02:54] i wonder if a network install would work?

[03:31] i wonder if i should not activate the wifi during install [03:31] Guest6901, http://paste.ubuntu.com/16059236/ [03:32] before your vlc be error, what are you doing ? sorry my bad english [03:33] rizi, did you do "vlc --verbose filename.mp4" without quotes? [03:33] vlouvet, let me try [03:34] rizi, replace filename.mp4 with the name and extension of your file [03:37] i wonder what's happening when it's stuck at 'preparing to install Ubuntu' [03:39] Has anyone ever seen anything like this?

I found out it's something to do with this jack in the box wifi and entering a search term before going through the steps to connect. [03:42] Does look aweful funny though eh? [03:42] jesuslovesyouthi, If I was an un-assuming internet user it would scare the crap out of me [03:42] lol [03:43] gosh i didn't think i wouldn't get it installed [03:44] vlouvet, http://paste.ubuntu.com/16059287/ [03:44] vlouvet, it still hanged [03:45] Is there a way to find a PID of a running aoo [03:45] app [03:45] Bray90820 type ps [03:46] rizi, can you take a picture of your video settings in VLC and pastebin it? [03:47] vlouvet, okay one min, i never uploaded picture [03:47] just remove and install again your vlc, maybe work xixixi [03:47] rizi, my guess is that the VDPAU driver is not working for you and you need to reset your video settings to default and see if it works [03:47] Guest6901: Thanks [03:47] Bray90820 okay [03:49] rizi, one thing that I would try is to start vlc with --nooverlay option so that you disable hardware overlay, if that doesn't work change your video output to something other than VDPAU [03:50] vlouvet, okay so i reset the setting but problem still exist but now when i go media to open file it gave some error on consol i will paste them [03:50] vlouvet, http://paste.ubuntu.com/16059311/ [03:54] rizi, what does your settings show on this page http://imgur.com/nYLN4ZL [03:55] rizi, it may not be too soon to try a complete re-installation of vlc. try "sudo apt-get remove --purge vlc" then "sudo apt-get install vlc" [03:56] Hi all. Anyone has a resume from suspend problem on inspiron laptops? If i move the laptop in a bag for a bit, it fails to resume. [03:58] akhil: are you sure it isn't resuming in your bag, then shutting down ? [04:01] TJ-: Nope. I can see the status light blinking. [04:02] TJ-: I checked the DMESG. For successful resumes, i see the S3 tag in the kern.log. Otherwise, the last message during suspend would be the network manager sleeping. [04:02] can someone please help me here [04:03] the grub menu is not loaded when I start the computer. it went right to windows instead of giving me the option to choose which OS to use. please help [04:05] when booting the computer, hitting shift repeatedly should bring up the grub menu [04:06] TJ-: http://pastebin.com/w8fS50Cz this might give you an idea of what i am trying to say. [04:07] woudl it help if i installed off of a dvd? i have an external drive [04:07] hmmm [04:07] vlouvet, i lost net connection [04:08] lubuntu-16.04-alternate-powerpc working great on my ibook g4 but if anyone has any url's about getting sound, wifi, video 3d(ati) working on my hardware http://apaste.info/cUs [04:08] rizi, is your video output set to vdpau? [04:09] vlouvet, not its set to auto [04:10] vlouvet, but now after install it says this "[00007f2350c25458] avcodec decoder: Using Intel i965 driver for Intel(R) Sandybridge Mobile - 1.7.0 for hardware decoding. [04:10] " [04:10] rizi, =) there we go! does it still crash? [04:10] akhil: so there's 1 big difference there. the power-on time. It could be that after running some process, or after some period of time, the system gets in a weird state that causes the failure. have you tried booting it clean, don't log in, leave it for a long while then shut the lid to force a suspend, and see if the time-since-boot is an issue. [04:11] hi all [04:11] mate or unity? [04:11] mate [04:11] )) [04:11] akhil: then do the opposite test. boot it clean, log-in, run lots of the programs you'd norlamlly run in a regular session, but do it quickly, so they've all run/are running, then try a suspend [04:12] 3 years support [04:12] vlouvet, yes [04:12] unity 5 years [04:13] TJ-: I have done that. In fact i went through my usual workload last night and left it on suspend overnight (without the charger plugged in). It resumed without a problem. If i move from one place to elsewhere carrying the laptop in a bag it seems to be a problem. The weird thing is, on 15.10 it was fine. [04:14] akhil: loose connection! [04:14] vlouvet, what does this error mean [04:14] TJ-: I also cycled through back to back suspend resume routines. [04:14] akhil: my partner used to find problems when he took his laptop around in his backpack in uni, turned out there was loads of humidty collecting inside it and the laptop [04:15] TJ-: I had this problem once on fedora 23, but it did not show itself after a while. [04:16] TJ-: I am now wondering if this had anything to do with it. Apr 26 03:40:38 techalien kernel: [ 966.371700] [drm:r600_ring_test [radeon]] *ERROR* radeon: ring 0 test failed (scratch(0x850C)=0xCAFEDEAD) [04:16] Apr 26 03:40:38 techalien kernel: [ 966.371719] [drm:si_resume [radeon]] *ERROR* si startup failed on resume [04:17] akhil: could it be that 1 suspend/resume works but a subsequent suspend fails? [04:17] TJ-: Nope. did 3 consective tests. [04:17] akhil: it's not unknown for the hardware not to be correctly reinitialised on resume, so a subsequent suspend can go all fooey [04:18] akhil: if the bag is the common factor I'd plump for something physical - loose connection, something metallic loose inside shorting out, or humidity. That log shows there was an uncommanded unexpected power-off [04:18] I have had suspend freeze problems on the 4.4 kernel. So i updated to kernel 4.5.2. Now suspend works as long as the laptop is stationary. Sigh. The closest i came across a similar problem was http://askubuntu.com/questions/699957/laptop-sometimes-cannot-wake-up-from-suspend [04:18] does anyone know the ubuntu mate channel name off top of thier head? [04:20] glass: #ubuntu-mate [04:21] TJ-: I will do the suspend resume again and see if the same gap is creeping in. Will paste the log in a few. [04:23] TJ-: http://pastebin.com/FNJQH6hd [04:24] akhil: does the laptop have a spinning disk? [04:25] TJ-: I think the gap is because the log is written upon resume and not during the suspend. Its approx the amount of time i waited before resuming from suspend. Question: Yes i have a normal HDD. [04:26] akhil: i still think its physical, if you can only reproduce when the laptop has been in a bag and knocked around a bit [04:28] TJ-: SMART data checks out fine. In any case, suspend uses the RAM only right? :: The kern.log stops at the "Network Manager is now ASLEEP" state if resume fails. [04:30] TJ-: I did shake the laptop around vigorously. But the error shows up only if moved "naturally" [04:31] how can i get info about touchpad device [04:34] ubuntu support zfs out of the box with new LTS release ? [04:35] Every update to a new release, whether it is a regular release or an LTS, it sure seems to screw up [04:36] where would upstart scripts be?

[05:31] ok still trying to understand this UEFI thing [05:31] !touch | phablet [05:31] phablet: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch . Support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [05:31] NoOova: Hello ! [05:32] How to understand control character specification: "^[^_" [05:32] First ^ is Control, next [ is Alt? [05:32] so is it pertinent that ubuntu be installed installed in UEFI mode if windows was?? [05:33] I am trying to dual boot windows 10 and ubuntu 14.04 [05:35] I have ubuntu installed and can select it to boot if I press f9 and select ubuntu loader instead of the microsoft one [05:35] but as soon as I restart then its back into the windows loop [05:37] so its there but instead of installing to MBR should I have installed to EFI partiton or something? [05:38] there seems to be no way to just select ubuntu loader for the default [05:38] robotdevil1: If you intall to MBR, you have to make sure your box can boot in Bios as opposed to UEFI mode. There should be a menu selection in the bios to effect this. [05:39] Rhorse: doesnt seem to have one [05:40] isnt there a little gui program that can fix the bootloader issue? [05:40] think it was called boot repair or something [05:41] robotdevil1: in that case follow the handbook for UEFI/GPT. Of course you can always use a Grub boot disk to locate your kernel and boot it, no matter what bootloader you choose to install.... [05:42] Rhorse: right [05:42] ...assuming your box can be made to boot from the USB or CD Rom drive... [05:42] yep [05:43] but I dont want a usb boot all the time [05:43] I installed libqt5multimedia* package on ubuntu, but i dont get libQt5Multimedia.so.5.2.1 ...perhaps /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQt5Multimedia.s symlink points to the lib ? Am i missing something ? is this the right channel to ask thi qu [05:43] should I just have installed grub somewhere else? [05:46] robotdevil1: I think you can change around the default boot order by messing around in /etc/default/grub [05:47] ok but it is always hitting the windows loader when the computer boots [05:47] instead of grub [05:48] right, because grub is automatically chainloading it by default. I _think_ that can be changed so that a menu always comes up. [05:51] oh [05:52] see i thought it was due to GPT partition [05:52] use grub recovery [05:53] kris__: how [05:53] with usb boot [05:54] boot repair disk [05:54] iso file on boot flsah usb stick === bonerzs is now known as pokergod [05:55] i have the usb stick installer still [05:58] download boot-repair-disk-64bit.iso and write on boobtable usb try [05:59] oh i see [06:00] isnt there an efi partiton I can write grub to or something [06:04] how do i disable the adblocker in firefox?

[06:13] Sachiru: yeah, you can install ubuntu versions 'next' to each other [06:13] z999: youtube-dl [06:13] z999: in the shell [06:13] z999: and then use your favourite video player watch your video [06:14] They have to reside on different partitions, right? Is there like a page or something? [06:14] Sachiru: the ubuntu installer will guide you [06:14] Sachiru: yes, different partitions. Not sure about a guide [06:14] Sachiru: /boot could be shared [06:14] Thanks. Is there a way to install 16.04 within 14.04? So that I no longer need to boot into a liveCD or something? [06:15] wulf i don't know how to do that [06:15] z999: huh? You don't know how to open a shell or terminal? [06:16] Sachiru: not within, but 'next to', just use your 16.04 usb and ubuntu will ask you what to do [06:16] i know how to open a terminal [06:16] you said shell [06:16] z999: which is kind of the same [06:16] The situation is this: Right now my NAS box is running 14.04 on ZFS root. I wish to install 16.04 without having to reboot from 14.04 (so that the kids won't complain about no movies). [06:16] My plan is to create an alternative dataset and install 16.04 on there. [06:17] Then configure grub to display both as boot options (to test 16.04 stability, with the goal being eventual migration to 16.04). [06:17] Sachiru: not possible to run 16.04 and 14.04 togheter without a reboot [06:18] Sachiru: you can install a 16.04 virtual machine on your 14.04 box if you like [06:18] <[diablo]> Good morning #ubuntu ... erm, guys where the hell has XChat gone? This XChat-GNOME is erm, poop [06:18] [diablo]: xchat is no longer maintained well [06:18] Sachiru: why not take a snapshot, upgrade 14.04 to 16.04, and revert the snapshot if there are problems? [06:19] [diablo]: use hexchat instead as alternative [06:19] That can work, trijntje. [06:19] <[diablo]> oh ok [06:19] <[diablo]> wow, I'm shocked, I've used xchat for over a decade I guess [06:19] Or probably I can snapshot 14.04, clone the snapshot to a new dataset, chroot to the dataset, do the upgrade, add the new dataset to grub entries, then reboot? [06:19] That way is less disruptive I think? [06:19] [diablo]: its still supported in repos, but you will find more benefits with hexchat :p [06:20] [diablo]: Try hexchat. [06:20] <[diablo]> Cool cheers lotuspsychje I'll give it a whirl === Armadillos_ is now known as Armadillos [06:20] <[diablo]> installing, brb [06:22] Sachiru, I'm just thinking, don't you have to set the bootfs property on a per pool basis? [06:22] nils_: Not really, no. [06:23] My current setup is with a pool named rootPool [06:23] Ubuntu 14.04 is installed into rootPool/ROOT/ubuntu [06:23] <[diablo]> sweet thats better looking [06:23] Sachiru, well then, the chroot thing could work but it may still impact the running system since you'll likely have to bind mount /dev, /proc etc. [06:23] I can clone that into rootPool/ROOT/Xenial [06:24] So hmm, chroot won't work then? [06:24] Hello, i have just installed ubuntu 16.04 but ufw do not enable at startup [06:24] ubuntu881: have you tried running "sudo ufw enable"? [06:25] z999: did you install flashplugin-nonfree? [06:25] Yes but didn't work [06:25] I want to print on a printer conected to an XP computer, but I have to enter a username and pasword. If I want to acces a shared folder I just get the message that I'm not autorised. [06:25] did you restart firefox afterwards z999? [06:25] where do i find it? [06:25] Sachiru, I have never tried that actually. Do you have a separate fs for /var? [06:25] ubuntu881: what was the error message? [06:26] nils_: No. Everything resides on rootPool/ROOT/ubuntu [06:26] z999: so you didn't install flashplugin-nonfree? Please be exact [06:26] That makes it easy to clone and rollback. [06:26] Sachiru, there may also be an issue if you're running a database like postgres or MySQL since the data files will diverge when you clone. [06:26] Nope, no databases on this box. [06:26] Can anyone help me with this issue? https://www.reddit.com/r/RetroPie/comments/4gbmig/retropie_plexmediaserver/ Not sure what direction to go in from here. [06:26] Only samba and KVM. [06:27] Oh, and netdata for monitoring. [06:27] KVM using zvols as backing store? ;) [06:27] What error message? [06:28] Yes. [06:28] I think you can try it on the clone, worst that could happen is that you have to discard the clone and reboot to a clean state. [06:28] I thought I might try to build PlexMedia server from source but not sure if that would help or not as I am not sure what the error is here, or what the problem is. [06:28] trijntje, did now. still doesn't work [06:28] ubuntu881: How do you know that ufw is not starting on startup? What message did Ubuntu spit out that lead you to that conclusion? [06:28] z999: did you restart your browser? What browser are you using? [06:28] firefox [06:29] nils_: Yeah, but the problem is that if I do it in the clone, as you said, I might damage /dev [06:29] yes restarted browser [06:29] I have the infinit loop with nvidia card on login with 16.04 how can I solve ? [06:29] After startup i type sudo ufw status and it is disabled [06:29] streulma: upgrade or clean install? [06:29] clean [06:29] streulma: wich card chipset? [06:30] Sachiru, yeah, what might happen is that grub is overwritten (if you're using grub) and depending on where your /boot resides that may lead to trouble === phil is now known as Guest41949 [06:31] for what it's worth, I upgraded my ZFS (on LUKS) based workstation last night without trouble (15.10 to 16.04 though) [06:31] z999: hmm, I cant get it to play either. Maybe cbs is using silverlight, in which case it wont play on linux [06:31] and I just did it with a snapshot [06:31] ubuntu881: and you definitely ran "sudo ufw enable" before rebooting? [06:31] nils_: /boot resides on a different dataset (rootPool/BOOT) [06:31] Yes sure [06:32] trijntje, i tried to play on another browser but it won't play [06:32] trijntje, not silverlight [06:32] Sachiru, hmm alright, I still use an ext4 based /boot... [06:32] z999: disable all your plugins/addons first, your url plays like a charm here [06:33] lotus, i disable flash? [06:33] lotuspsychje: 7300GT Login screen shows [06:33] lotuspsychje, i tried that 5 times already and it is the same [06:33] z999: no, disable add blockers [06:33] nils_: I did it this way because of the possibility to do beadm-style boot environments, once grub fully supports ZFS and LUA scripting [06:33] i don't have adblockers [06:33] streulma: try to get in desktop with nomodeset perhaps? [06:34] LUA script in grub.cfg to enumerate snapshots, then another script to clone a snapshot and boot into the clone = instant boot environment [06:34] brb restarting computer [06:34] z999: create another user and test the video from FF [06:34] Sachiru, yeah that would be pretty sweet. [06:35] is it possible to get a more traditional window decoration under unity? all the themes i've found so far put a shadow around the window instead of a boarder. shadows don't work well with VNC over low bandwidth connections. [06:35] The ability to snapshot, upgrade and test, then do "sudo zfs promote /ROOT/currentBE" when it succeeds, and simply reboot when it fails, is a godsend for testing. [06:35] apt just downloaded packages on its own. I ctr; [06:35] brianx: you can tweak stuff with ccsm perhaps? [06:36] ctrl-C the command, but the packages were downloaded into cache anyway. What's going on? [06:36] lotuspsychje: any hint as to where in ccsm? i've been playing in there for a few hours and haven't found it. [06:37] brianx: not sure where exactly, there is also unity-tweak-tool if you like [06:37] doesn't work [06:37] doesn't work [06:37] z999: tested on another user?

Trying to fix these errors https://www.reddit.com/r/RetroPie/comments/4gbmig/retropie_plexmediaserver/ [06:37] zanzabar: your on ubuntu server? [06:37] lotuspsychje: unity tweak is pretty simple, i've been through all of the options there, no joy. [06:38] brianx: ok, perhaps ccsm play then?

[08:49] (interested in feedback from folks that regularly use mainline kernels with 14.04) [08:50] andjjj23: in practice it means you'll need to maintain it yourself [08:50] !touch | embrik [08:50] embrik: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch .

[08:57] blanko: when did you get that error? [08:57] blanko, seems to be an old bug, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1381175 [08:57] Launchpad bug 1381175 in linux (Ubuntu) "vgaarb module not patched" [Low,Expired] [08:57] yesterday, after the upgrade from 15 -> 16.x [08:57] vgaarb module not patched for 3D [08:58] ops, sorry question was not for me [08:58] argh my fonts are all so wide [09:00] normally I wait a few months after a LTS release to get it when the initial bugs have been dealt with - how is it looking for 16.04? [09:02] zetheroo: works great for me, anything specific you have in mind? [09:02] auronandace|work: not really [09:02] I'm trying to upgrade a server from 14.04 to 16.04 and I thought systemd is the new default, but it is not installed, which packages do I need to add manually? [09:02] I am actually surprised it's so quiet in here :) [09:02] zetheroo how would you expect someone to answer this? it has been stabilized before release i guess and works fine for many, but having a bug always depends on the individual scenario, hence could be just fine, but possibly you will run into bugs which wont be corrected if you dont report them [09:02] must be a good thing .. [09:03] !ltsupgrade | Ox032F [09:03] Ox032F: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. [09:04] so anyway to go back? [09:04] de-facto: well I recall in the past this channel being a hive of activity with people asking about hardware issues just after a new release - graphics issues, sound issues etc ... [09:05] But it seems rather quieter in here now. I take that to be a good thing. [09:05] Hello, may i ask LXD related questions in here? [09:05] <_maddy> zetheroo: you should probably wait a few months just to be sure, if that's how you are used to doing it === MrZone_ is now known as MrZone [09:05] Ox032F: oh you already upgraded? better not trying to go back then [09:06] hello [09:06] MrZone: anything related to ubuntu fits here [09:06] OerHeks how to config this patch [09:06] lotuspsychje: yes, but I get the error "/usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: 1: /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: /sbin/runlevel: not found" a lot, so I thought the init system is messed up [09:07] now I'm also wondering whether it is actually possible to upgrade a virtual server [09:07] zetheroo yeah it seems not too many of those this time, yet there have been some of course. If you are really curious you could try to test your hardware from within a livecd and if it works fine for you upgrade your real box [09:07] Ox032F: perhaps the #ubuntu-server guys might give you a hand with that [09:08] lotuspsychje: thx I'll ask there [09:09] I am using LXD and trying to limit the usage of swap per container. In LXD you use profiles that you link the containters to when you create them. For example; "limits.memory 2GB" gives you 2 gigs of mem. However, for the "limits.memory.swap" the only 2 flags you can set is "true" or "false". You can also set the priority according to https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/news/ but i am rather more into restricting the swap usage for each user in the attempt [09:10] hello does anyone know how to make brasero hide the recent projects??thanks [09:11] h [09:11] hi guys! Anybody know of a cool SFTP server solution? [09:11] hi [09:12] I was looking for building a package from the source. [09:12] I didn't find any debian related spec file. [09:12] TvL2386: SFPT is included in openssh. You can connect to SFTP on port 22. [09:12] In the source package. [09:12] So where are those scripts [09:12] kernel_mutex: should they be there? [09:13] kernel_mutex debian does not use spec files [09:13] I just saying that I downloaded that sources, from apt-get source --download-only option [09:13] So where are dpkg spec file ? [09:13] there is a debian directory in the source dir [09:14] MrZone, yeah I want to make an SFTP server for my colleagues to put files and have customers download them... but I'm thinking of how to authenticate and keep ppl in there own directory.... [09:14] go in the source dir and "dpkg-buildpackage" [09:14] TvL2386: openssh does all that [09:14] TvL2386: force-command internal-sftp; ChrootDirectory; etc [09:15] kernel_mutex: dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us [09:15] Desu, cool! How would you do user management? [09:15] TvL2386: only allow key or 2fa access, make sure you are not allowing dsa keys or protocol 1 [09:15] TvL2386: you use "real" sytem users [09:15] system* [09:15] TvL2386: You can setup anonymous login for the download only. [09:15] either traditional local accounts or radius/ldap/whatever [09:15] don't do that [09:16] then you could just as well just have a open http server with no auth [09:16] Desu: How would you go about making it so that users that connect to SFTP cannot see other directories? Eg. just see the one they connect to and not / [09:16] how to fix this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1381175 [09:16] Launchpad bug 1381175 in linux (Ubuntu) "vgaarb module not patched" [Low,Expired] [09:16] step by step please [09:16] MrZone: ChrootDirectory [09:17] MrZone: man -P "less -p ChrootDirectory" sshd_config [09:17] Desu: So make them an account with nologin shell and ChrootDirecitiry?

[09:20] there are several good guides on how to do scp/sftp only using openssh, don't read any guide that tells you to mess wtih login shells, using rssh or similar [09:20] they are all horribly outdated [09:21] Hi, I've found a reproducable crash in gnome-shell when using the Chromium developer tools. [09:21] zzarr the has been build with another version of libstdc++?

[09:27] zzarr hmm probably it was linked against some symbols which are in the 16.04 version of libstdc++ but are not in the 14.04 version? just my guess [09:27] de-facto, I think you're on to something [09:28] zzarr maybe you should ask in #ubuntu-devel [09:28] how to fix this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1381175 [09:28] Launchpad bug 1381175 in linux (Ubuntu) "vgaarb module not patched" [Low,Expired] [09:28] step by step please [09:28] thanks [09:29] Hi guys, I was wondering if there is a reference for the kernel boot parameters for the Ubuntu 1604 netinstall? We're using the same as 14.04 but we get a "Booting kernel failed: Invalid argument" [09:30] de-facto, I'm upgrading the 14.04 machine to 16.04 (it's an virtual machine and I have an backup) [09:34] so for some reason the calendar on this install is not in English using xfce [09:36] ElectroMotive: post output of `locale` [09:36] (use a sane pastebin like bpaste.net, ptpb.pw, gist.github.com) [09:37] it says en_US.UTF-8 [09:38] for *all* of them? [09:38] except for where it says LC_ALL= and where it says LANGUAGE= [09:38] but everywhere else it says the above [09:39] the other two are empty [09:39] that is fine [09:39] yeah but when i click on my calendar it is in some other language [09:40] ElectroMotive: what language is the calender in? [09:40] which calendar program? [09:40] i am not sure [09:40] for either question [09:40] ElectroMotive: is it written with letters? [09:41] yes [09:41] Hello everyone [09:41] Agda Baxisso is the current month [09:42] I'm having some troubles with Ubuntu 16.04 and the Realtek RTL8188EE Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) [09:42] ElectroMotive: what do you see in locale -a? [09:43] It gets connected and disconnected all the time [09:43] I downloaded the driver from http://152.104.125.41/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=48&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#2722 [09:44] But it returns errors when I try to install it. [09:44] dksmw, a very long list [09:45] Hello, I am trying to upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04. I have opened Software Updater, and clicked on upgrade, then typed my password to authenticate, and clicked on okay button. Then the window disappears and nothing happened. What could be the problem here and how to solve it? [09:46] Desu, thanks for all your remarks! I've documented them and I'm going to investigate how to setup a good sftp server [09:46] hello there. libqt4 is not installed in ubuntu 16. how can I solve this and install it? its missing for a program I use. [09:48] Tanvir, you may try do-release-upgrade [09:48] in terminal [09:48] invoking sudo of course [09:48] How to do that? [09:49] open the terminal and type sudo do-release-upgrade [09:49] ruicruz: libqtcore4 [09:49] clear [09:49] oops [09:50] I've once had that fail. The cause was probably packages installed from 3rd-party PPAs. So you may need to uninstall those first [09:50] gotta love when you think you are typing in a terminal and you are really typing into the chat [09:50] how to personal chat on Xchat? [09:50] sapa_inyong ▸ /msg user [09:51] dkessel ok, got it. [09:51] Guys. Having a weird problem with suspend. Sometimes after i move my laptop under suspend, it fails to resume. However, deliberately shaking the laptop does not bring it up. the entire suspend sequence is written to log only after wakeup, so i do not know what is happening (laptop powers off completely when i try to resume from suspend in such cases) [09:51] ElectroMotive, seems it's working as it's downloading stuff! Thanks! [09:51] yeah i hope you have a backup just in case [09:52] but no problem with the tip [09:52] ElectroMotive, I don't have a backup of my home folder, but is that necessary? [09:53] I thought things would be kept. [09:53] dkessel i see that the package is installed, but my app still requires the "old" (ubuntu 15) name of the package. do you know any way I can solve this? [09:54] well like rp2 said depending on if you have 3rd party PPAs then it may just fail but if everything seems ok i would not worry [09:54] On that note, would it be okay to backup the necessary files in some other partition? [09:54] hi. i am having issues getting my yubikey to be detected as a smartcard on 14.04. the yubikey-personalisation-gui detectes the key, but not as a smartcard. i installed opensc, and pcscd. it works on a non-ubuntu linux. any suggestions [09:55] I'm having some troubles with Ubuntu 16.04 and the Realtek RTL8188EE Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) [09:56] noelia: Sadly that is the case with most realtek chipsets, the driver support is atrocious [09:57] hateball Should I try ndiswrapper? [09:57] akhil, its rude to PM without an invite [09:57] noelia: I don't really have any other suggestion than to buy a well supported chipset to replace it with [09:57] most people if they know the answer to your question will try to help if they can [09:58] noelia: At least that's the only reliable solution I've used [09:58] hateball Thank you very much [09:58] i will try to help whoever i can but sometime people have their own problems they are trying to solve as well [09:58] noelia: That said, it's perhaps possible to get it working. I just... didnt find it worth the anger [09:59] maybe ask again with a better description of the actual problem [09:59] noelia: Intel and Broadcom chipsets work well in my experience [10:01] I want to print on a printer conected to an XP home computer, but I have to enter a username and pasword. If I want to acces a shared folder I just get the message that I'm not autorised. [10:02] Hay, I'm using intel hd graphic, I was experience freeze so many time's I trying to install the driver from 01.org and then the driver software tell that my distro is not supported, iam on ubuntu 15.10 64bit, some body have suggestion to fix it? [10:03] what is 01.org [10:03] that does not sound official at all [10:04] hateball I'll try one of those :) [10:05] firman, that driversite is not official supported here, intel driver is standard available [10:06] By the way, how can I remove Ubuntu's default network manager and replace it with Wicd? [10:06] noelia, the latestkernel version may be looking for signed derivers [10:06] drivers* [10:06] okay, then how to fix my problem, its freezing to often, even when i just browsing with firefox, watching video's and other [10:07] OerHeks [10:08] intel is no racemonster but, depending on the intel chipset, you should be able to play youtube fine. [10:08] noelia, someone that had the same problem was able to solve it by disabling secure boot in the bios [10:08] ElectroMotive I'm going to try that, then. Thank you :) [10:09] yup [10:13] In the middle of streaming on youtube, its crash and nothing i can do when thats momens coming [10:13] except push the power button [10:13] firman: segfault [10:14] Eric^^ i'm sorry??

[11:26] http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Step_By_Step [11:26] i tried downloading tar.bz2 file [11:27] i would use the live iso, http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Livecd [11:27] or ubuntu live mode and installing it in the live environment [11:27] linux users are unlikely to have any inventory [11:28] there is no another software than testdisk? [11:28] so i reinstalled, tried to install megasync by running sudo dpkg -i megasync-xUbuntu_16.04_amd64.deb [11:29] and my package manager is broken again [11:29] was able to install hexchat, tried to install megasync [11:30] hmm… [11:30] not sure [11:30] anomaly44 run "sudo apt-get -f install" [11:30] eh, I just upgraded to 16.04 .. and now all my terminals give some dumb message about "man sudo_root" [11:30] how do I get rid of this? [11:30] Is there a way to make my workspaces "wrap around"? So that they loop [11:31] done de-facto [11:32] dreamer "touch ~/.sudo_as_admin_successful" [11:33] de-facto, i can install other stuff again [11:34] but how do i fix the megasync install? [11:34] llutz: wow, that is .. wow. [11:34] what could cause iwlwifi driver to connect at extremely low bitrate (like 1 or 2mbps) to 802.11n networks? [11:34] anomaly44 background is: if you install a .deb via dpkg -i ... it does not resolve dependencies, hence you are left with broken dependencies. apt can fix that possibly. if you are looking for a nice and simple gui way i can recommend to install gdebi it can be choosen as default app for opening .deb files (when you double click) and resolves dependencies [11:34] llutz: who thought this was a good idea? [11:34] anomaly44, ask megasync. pretty sure you are not alone. [11:34] dreamer: don't ask me.... [11:34] llutz: and where is this behaviour documented? [11:34] (honestly, this is moronic) [11:35] ok thx de-facto, cfhowlett [11:35] hi [11:36] how do get to delete every occurence of a particular name on my system [11:36] dreamer: check /etc/bash.bashrc, idk who added this nonsense but it's there since a while [11:36] say for instance openvas [11:36] I want to remove the folders [11:36] anomaly44 the "sudo apt-get -f install" tries to fix broken dependencies [11:37] is there any reason that I can't install a linux 4.x kernel on ubuntu 14.04? [11:37] Lope: no [11:38] how do i enable direct root ssh login? all the guides are wrong (they want me to set 'PermitRootLogin yes' which enables passwords, which i don't want). [11:38] llutz: ok, I'll just delete/comment that part. I don't want to have some mandatory file in my home-dir [11:38] raz: what behaviour do you want? [11:38] llutz: and so other than here it's not documented anywhere? [11:38] Wulf: normal ssh behavior, root login with key authentication [11:38] how to restore all the symlink in /ust? [11:38] */usr? [11:38] raz: okay, man sshd_config, read about PermitRootLogin [11:38] billydaz: in that case: "find / -name openvas -delete". Be very careful. [11:39] cool with gdebi it worked [11:39] Nilesh_: chattr [11:39] billydaz: ? [11:39] Wulf: i have. this is not about sshd_config but about the pam garbage that some utterly confused person at ubuntu hacked in. [11:39] all [11:39] Nilesh_: [11:39] Hi all ! [11:39] yea I saw your msg [11:39] Wulf: PermitRootLogin no-password is exactly what i want, i just need to remove the ubuntu sabotage [11:40] just considering if I want to go that route [11:40] raz: check ~root/.ssh/authorized_keys too [11:40] raz: there is no other default nonsense in ubuntu [11:40] Wulf: i have. i'm pretty sure the "please login as ubuntu"-crap is hooked in via pam. [11:40] i just can't find where [11:40] raz: that's usually configured in authorized_keys [11:41] Wulf: not here. authorized_keys contains just my vanilla key, no options on it === N3X15_ is now known as N3X15 [11:41] raz: double and triple check that. [11:41] Wulf: ... [11:41] i can read, thanks [11:42] raz: and people make silly mistakes [11:42] yes, like adding this security compromising garbage to a mainline distro [11:42] it is not in authorized_keys and not in in the sshd config [11:43] raz: are you really really sure you checked ~root/.ssh/authorized_keys, not another? [11:43] hateball: how to I insert the recursive key to delete directories [11:43] Wulf: yes [11:43] raz: type in the command, paste a dump of your terminal. Please. [11:44] raz: and also the output of the ssh command you use [11:44] Wulf: oh f**** this sudo crap. you were right. whoami = root ... echo $HOME = /home/ubuntu [11:44] haha ;-) [11:45] * raz screams [11:45] i hope the person who came up with that idea dies a painful death [11:46] billydaz: then you'll want to use find with -exec [11:47] raz: what sudo command did you run? [11:47] akik: probably just sudo -s [11:47] akik: sudo bash [11:47] anyway, it's fixed now, for this host... [11:47] raz: ok sudo -i or sudo su - fixes that problem [11:48] When I say what I think about sudo, I'm sure that someone will ask the bot to tell me about !language again... [11:48] there's no `su -` for the sudoers crap... [11:48] forcing people to deal with passwords, in 2016, is so brain damaged, it makes me want to torture someone [11:48] raz: all commands are available for the user account you created during the install [11:48] sudo is the Donald Trump of all tools [11:49] akik: it is wrong. it is broken. i don't even want to talk about it. if you have a say in ubuntu then remove this crap immediately. [11:49] raz: what is wrong? [11:49] akik: sudo [11:49] raz: you have to be more specific [11:50] akik: sudo is a braindead, broken, annoying idea [11:50] forcing ubuntu users to login as non-root is braindead, broken and dangerous. [11:50] if you want to get a root shell, use sudo -i or sudo su - [11:50] akik: the only proper use case is if you want a specific user to run a *specific* command as another user [11:50] hi all [11:50] raz, you feel strongly about this. fine. less ranting in the volunteer channel and file it as a bug report if you expect any action. [11:50] akik: i should never have to do that. it does not add security, it removes security. [11:51] hi geek [11:51] cfhowlett: i'm not expecting any action, this has been debated before, the brain rot is strong in ubuntu steering.. [11:51] someone can help me with an audio trouble?

[13:25] Failed to restart snmpd.service: Unit snmpd.service not found. [13:25] oh well .. [13:25] lerner: no why? [13:25] zetheroo: well, !tab works, it could be called something else [13:26] you sound like a standard phone operator [13:26] lerner: its the opensource thinking, the community helping each other with filing bugs [13:26] hateball: yeah, I tried with TAB ... doesn't look like snmp has anything there [13:27] then you are welcomed :D [13:28] I got rid of chromium, but the icon is still to be seen in the applications menu. Oddly, it doesnt appear in the more detailed "Properties" menu, and I cannot get rid of it: compare the left and center sides of this screenshot: http://www.shareimages.com/image-r.php?76734-pJacl5yek6Kkk5.VnA-chromium.png [13:28] whats a good screen cap tool like oCam but for linux i did try kazam but it has issues on my system [13:29] BinaryVAX: This works well what little I've used it https://obsproject.com/download#linux === effbiai_ is now known as effbiai [13:32] lerner: tried a reboot? [13:32] lotuspsychje, yes [13:32] ok for this project anyway, i want to boot something and work with the partitions, and i guess isolate a bad partition. what's a good bootable tool? [13:32] lerner: how did you uninstall chromium? [13:33] i dont remember, I think I just deleted the whole directory [13:33] .chromium maybe [13:33] lerner: you did not use purge? [13:33] if purge is a command, no [13:34] lerner: sudo apt purge chromium-browser [13:34] Package 'chromium-browser' is not installed, so not removed [13:34] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. [13:35] TJ-: fyi - there is some new findings in the gnome-terminal unmaximize report. Apparently the issue does not present itself when using eg. metacity. So it seems a unity specific issue. [13:36] lundmar: but other terminals work like a charm on unity? [13:36] lerner: not sure mate, you might have scrambled someting by deleting manually? [13:37] lundmar: yes, I'm following the email notifications on the reprot [13:37] lotuspsychje: I don't know - haven't tested others. [13:37] lundmar: I'm on another related issue in the unity-greeter too bug 1571640 [13:37] bug 1571640 in lightdm (Ubuntu) "lightdm changing resolution" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1571640 [13:37] lundmar: i did test with sakura and terminator === Gill_ is now known as Gill [13:38] lundmar: i also tested gnome-terminal on fresh xenial install, same bug [13:41] TJ-: oh, so windows and screens are currently a hot topic I see. [13:41] lundmar: same old world, been this way for more than 10 years :D [13:42] TJ-: I hope things will change for the better once we get rid of X ;) [13:42] in 10 years or so i guess haha [13:43] lundmar: I doubt it... that will remove network client/server remote desktop functions [13:44] TJ-: surely an alternative solution to that is still being pondered. === Armadillos_ is now known as Armadillos [13:48] hi [13:48] How can I install HP Scanner N9120 [13:48] anybody can help me? [13:50] Sreekumar: Plug it in [13:50] ok [13:50] then? [13:51] Sreekumar: hplip should be installed by default, and it should work out of the box in any SANE app [13:51] hplip installed but not working [13:52] Sreekumar: oh my bad... I thought it was OfficeJet 9120 and not ScanJet [13:52] Sreekumar: try hplip-gui and scan from there? [13:52] scanned but not finding the model [13:53] Sreekumar: wich ubuntu version are you on? [13:53] 14.04 [13:53] 64bit [13:54] any other way to install? [13:54] Sreekumar: I can't find the model on hplip http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html [13:55] And on HP's site, there is only Windows listed... usually if it has Linux support it will direct you to hplip [13:55] that model not in that site [13:56] HP peoples given to me three files [13:56] Sreekumar: What is difference of lsusb with scanner plugged in? [13:56] libsane.la, libsane.so.1.0.18, libsane-hpn912.so.1.0.18 [13:57] the_ghost I did't get you [13:58] in terminal without scanner type: lsusb, then plug it in and type again. there should be a new entry can you copy/paste that? [13:58] not checked [13:58] I will check please wait [14:01] g [14:01] Sreekumar: I'm not sure, but maybe you can place libsane-hpn912.so.1.0.18 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane/ [14:05] Guys? [14:05] Mind if i ask something? [14:05] jackmord: don't ask to ask, just ask :) [14:06] What IRSSI command that shows all available server channels? [14:06] how can i show installed kernels in console? [14:07] exit [14:07] after upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04 is still got kernel 4.2 i thought it should be kernel 4.4 [14:08] fresh install: Linux ubuntu 4.4.0-21-generic #37-Ubuntu SMP [14:08] ok seems mine got not updated or is not booted by default [14:08] anybody by chance know of a tool like yumi or some USB mutli boot creation tool? I hate having to use windows to create multi-boot USB drives. [14:09] kpettit: multisystem [14:10] awesome! I didn't know about that one. Thanks lotuspsychje [14:10] kpettit: just keep in mind its not officially on repos [14:10] kpettit: use at own risk :p [14:11] Does it suck? [14:11] kpettit: no it rocks, drag n drop the iso's to the program and burn [14:11] do the linux's boot up ok? I had a problem for awhile where ubuntu stuff would boot OK but Centos ones would always have issues. [14:12] kpettit: tested only ubuntu official flavors on it myself, experiment with it a bit [14:12] kpettit: i had 6 iso's on 1 stick lubuntu,xubuntu and ubuntu-desktop all 32 and 64bit [14:13] hi all, I have to run the following command to stop my mouse cursor going crazy (xset m 1) and would like to make the change permanent but not too sure how I do that with xorg conf files [14:13] Can anyone help? [14:13] lotuspsychje: Ok, I'll give it a whirl and put it through it's paces. I've got customers on various linux flavors so I have to keep a bunch of linux's things arround [14:14] kpettit: perhaps there's a dd way to put several iso's on usb.., there is also an AOI image with all ubuntu flavors on it somewhere [14:15] what would be the best way to backup my system? [14:15] !backup [14:15] There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [14:15] thx [14:16] lotuspsychje: Cool thanks for the tips. I've done a lot of dd, pretty sure that won't work but this multisystem sounds very promising. I'll experiment a bit and see how it goes.

[14:31] cat /etc/apt/sources.list [14:31] network manager can't use [14:32] billydaz: https://ghostbin.com/paste/mz2bk [14:32] serverboy: (it will depend on how long the filenames are) [14:33] serverboy: So, can't you just adjust the width of your terminal window? (You're doing it in a gui terminal, right?) [14:33] Strangest thing... I did a fresh install of 16.04 on my Latitude E5420 and Network Manager thinks my BCM4313 802.11n wireless adapter is an wired ethernet adapter. Any ideas? [14:33] Hi usr13. is ther any way to use ls -C to show directory listing in 3 columns [14:33] serverboy: I just told you. [14:34] serverboy: (I'm pretty sure -C is default anyway.) [14:34] nillawafer: sudo service network-manager restart [14:35] romare: your list is fine === GJ_1 is now known as GJ_ [14:36] billydaz: so what would be the problem? btw I have this problem with every app I want to install. [14:36] this is my second fresh install of ubuntu gnome [14:36] sudo bash -c "apt-get update;apt-get install -f" [14:36] obviously there's something wrong with ubuntu gnome [14:36] hello [14:36] what is the error message again [14:36] 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

[14:37] nillawafer: its a bug, i have it also perhaps you can file the bug? [14:37] hello how can i locked my screen on ubuntu mate? [14:37] serverboy: ld ?

[14:39] dhanzkie: Ctrl + Alt + L [14:40] Yes but i just need 3 columns without touching the terminal [14:40] romare: apparently it is meant to capture logs when you run the apt command [14:40] nillawafer: if you file the bug, ill mark as affected [14:40] billydaz: meaning? [14:41] lotuspsychje: I will look into filing a bug on launchpad [14:42] nillawafer: thank you, i also on fresh xenial and b43 [14:42] I see all of the ISO downloads on ubuntu's site are insecure (HTTP, not HTTPS) and even the torrent file offered on ubuntu's site is served insecurely as well (HTTP not HTTPS) [14:42] Hi, I'm trying to use the proprietary nvidia driver. I tried installing it through the ubuntu repository and the nvidia standalone driver. This is my xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/nn42GaX6 (it was generated by the nvidia tool). But according to my x11 log file, the intel driver, nouveau and the nvidia driver are beeing loaded. X11 then uses the intel graphics. How can I force X11 to only use the nvidia module? [14:42] romare: how many terminal screens do you hvae open [14:42] billydaz: two [14:42] billydaz: sorry, one [14:42] have you run the apt command [14:42] Lope: you was here earlier this week dont you asking the same question [14:43] which apt command? [14:43] try to open another one [14:43] lotuspsychje: I didn't ask that. [14:43] so that you have two [14:43] and then? [14:43] So why are all of the ubuntu downloads insecure? [14:43] Lope: there are md5 to test the iso's [14:43] the md5's are served over HTTP as well [14:43] Lope: http doesnt mean insecure... [14:43] so the md5 are insecure also [14:44] sounds like someone is trolling [14:44] try to download any other distro over https ;-) [14:44] then in one run sudo bash -c "apt-get update;apt-get install -f" [14:44] ronator: go check for yourself [14:44] I do not need, i check the md5sum [14:44] Lope: do you have an ubuntu issue? [14:44] then in the other runtail -f /var/log/syslog [14:44] ronator: I have [14:44] so what is your proeblem actually? [14:45] lotuspsychje: yes, I can't seem to find a secure download of ubuntu, thats an ubuntu issue. [14:45] wabber: nouveau is the open-source nvidia driver (not intel).

[14:45] dont know why poeople frefer down load over a browser ;-) [14:45] the ftp servers don't prevent MITM? [14:46] READ [14:46] Lope: the way of downloading doesnt matter as the iso can be md5 [14:46] wabber: Or you can look at the output of "grep Driver /var/log/Xorg.0.log" [14:46] Lope: did you find an unsecure iso of ubuntu yet? [14:46] billydaz: https://ghostbin.com/paste/koey9 [14:46] lotuspsychje: and where do you suggest the real md5 is viewed? on the insecure HTTP page? [14:47] Lope: stop it please [14:47] Lope: here's the info how to check the signatures https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto [14:47] Lope: If you find ubuntu downloading insecure: go to build your own linux then [14:47] http://mirror.pnl.gov/releases/xenial/MD5SUMS thats an insecure md5 [14:47] i have a file document_object*.json where *=numbers, but it is showing other files that do not have numbers. how could I do a ls just for files with numbers? [14:47] md5 collisions are pretty easy to generate, the images should be gpg signed [14:47] hmm nothing discriptive in that [14:48] md5 is for checking for corruption, not validity [14:48] what is the errror on the apt screen buffer [14:48] wabber: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |nc termbin.com 9999 [14:48] wabber: and send resulting URL [14:48] Lope: there are sha-256 sums too [14:48] blacknred0: shell dependent [14:48] SFTP / FTPS is NOT FTP [14:48] billydaz: can you open the question? [14:48] Desu: they also offer other hashes, over insecure HTTP. [14:48] dksmw: which shouldn't be used for validation either [14:49] dksmw: ^ [14:49] Desu: yes [14:49] usr13: pasted it on pastebin already srry: http://pastebin.com/tpyz5dT7 I know that nouveau is the open source which is why I'm confused that it gets loaded. But according to the grep only the intel and nvidia driver are beeing used === Malsasa_ is now known as Malsasa [14:49] What's the point in offering these hashes insecurely? why bother offering them at all? http://mirror.pnl.gov/releases/xenial/SHA256SUMS [14:49] http://mirror.pnl.gov/releases/xenial/SHA256SUMS.gpg [14:50] blacknred0: on sane shells you can do foo[0-9]bar [14:50] wabber: lspci |nc termbin.com 9999 [14:50] HEY [14:50] s [14:50] So is it impossible to securely download ubuntu?

When I open the nvidia management tool it says I'm not using the nvidia driver. Also I have no glx extensions :/ [14:57] the support question is: how can I download an Ubuntu .iso over https?

I'm testing logcheck now, but it seems overly verbose and difficult to tune. [15:00] wabber: Assuming you have the correct nvidia driver module loaded, you may need to run the nvidia configuration tool again.

[15:03] Hey folks [15:03] wabber: sudo apt-get remove nvidia* [15:03] using the Git command, how do I copy a github repo [15:04] i'm running ubuntu 16.04 with mate 1.12.2. back then with 15 and now i face this issue where the boot encounters disk errors and i have to reboot. there were times i had to do fsck -y /.. etc. anyone had this issue before? [15:04] wabber: ... and just go to nvidia.com, download direct and use their instructions for install. It's not that hard. [15:04] 16.04 LTS was released on April, 21: https://insights.ubuntu.com/2016/04/20/canonical-unveils-6th-lts-release-of-ubuntu-with-16-04/ [15:04] But I'm offered a download for 16.04 on the Ubuntu website and the release date was 21st April. [15:04] wabber: The /etc/X11/xorg.conf file may work as is. [15:04] that's weird, in my netinstall machines it isn't, ty anyway [15:04] MacroMan: and? [15:05] maybe your mirror doesn't have it yet? [15:05] ubottu thinks it's not out until July 21st [15:05] MacroMan: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [15:05] MacroMan: LTS to LTS upgrades are only automatically offered once the 1st point release is issued, so you'll get the update in July when 16.04.1 is released, its been that way for the last few LTS releases [15:05] wabber: But the installer will more-than-likely re-create it. (You could remove the existing one, but probably not necessary.) [15:05] usr13: I am currently using the manually installed one. remove nvidia* removed 0 packages [15:05] aah [15:05] MacroMan, upgrade will be offered with the 16.04.1 release, not now, but see the upgrade wiki howto do it now [15:05] thanks for explaining [15:05] DJones, I see. Thank you [15:05] I have a question if anyone can help me regarding software for chineese symbols in open office or libre writer.. I have this text that is currently translated by chineese person into symbols... But the symbols got saved in a bnp immage file... How can I/ is there a way to make the transission into a word document so i can format symbol size and layout... I tried font manager but it did not seem to have any of the tools for doing this... Any [15:05] sugestions...? [15:06] Is there anyway I can start an upgrade to the next LTS now? [15:06] try to get this person to produce something other than bitmap images [15:06] that would be my suggestion [15:07] wabber: If sudo apt-get remove nvidia* did not remove any packages, I suppose you had already removed it somehow. [15:07] mortenm: why can't this person use LibreOffice? [15:07] wabber: And that would be why it is not loading, becuase it does not exist in the first place. [15:08] wabber: are you sure? Look and see. [15:08] wabber: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/nvidia*list [15:08] usr13: yes I did. I installed the repository one, got a black screen after reboot. Used the terminal to purge everything again and then I the one from nvidia.com manually which resulted in a functioning xorg but without glx extensions [15:08] MacroMan: clean install or do-release-upgrade perhaps? [15:08] usr13: *then I installed [15:08] wabber: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/*nvidia* |grep list [15:09] lotuspsychje, do-release-upgrade tells me there is no release available. [15:09] wabber: Oh you got a black screen? Was there a cursor on it? [15:09] usr13: returns nothing [15:09] how big do i make /home? [15:09] i'm running ubuntu 16.04 with mate 1.12.2. back then with 15 and now i face this issue where the boot encounters disk errors and i have to reboot. there were times i had to do fsck -y /dev/sdb .. etc. anyone had this issue before? [15:09] usr13: don't remember oo [15:09] !nomodeset | wabber [15:09] wabber: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [15:10] MacroMan: could try force with -d option [15:10] usr13, ubottu: so using the driver from the repository with nomodeset as a kernel parameter could work? [15:10] wabber: Yes [15:11] MacroMan: dont forget to backup before upgrading [15:11] usr13: Alright. I'm gonna try that then. Thanks. [15:11] wabber: Install it again, if you get black screen, try nomodeset [15:11] or just do it anyway [15:11] lotuspsychje, OK will give that a try. Thank you. I'm just doing this on a test duplicate of my live server. [15:11] MacroMan: your on server? [15:12] lotuspsychje, I'll be upgrading a server edition yes [15:12] MacroMan: for production? === fiete is now known as phoenix201 [15:13] No. this is a copy of my production server to test if all my software will still work after an upgarde [15:13] MacroMan: ok good luck [15:13] Wow, I handled that completely backwards. Should have asked wabber to verify that nvidia package was installed *first*! ;( [15:13] I have a question if anyone can help me regarding software for chineese symbols in open office or libre writer.. I have this text that is currently translated by chineese person into symbols... But the symbols got saved in a bnp immage file... How can I/ is there a way to make the transission into a word document so i can format symbol size and layout... I tried font manager but it did not seem to have any of the tools for doing this... Any [15:13] sugestions...? [15:16] So I need to install some sort of antivirus on my Ubuntu machine. I know it's not needed, but company policy, blah blah blah. Recommendations?

Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [15:46] how do I manually set up static IP and interface names in 16.04? [15:46] bennabiy: with predictable network interface naming that exists in Xenial, it should already be 'static' for interfaces, unless your interfaces change frequently [15:46] bennabiy: static IP configuration remains the same as it has been in the past [15:46] how do you install java these days? I tried default-jdk and default-jre and both are installed and I still don't have a 'java' binary [15:47] I'm running 16.04 [15:47] teward: I am used to using /etc/network/interfaces [15:47] bennabiy: you still can [15:47] and the eth* [15:47] what is setting the enp2s0 type name? [15:47] networkd? [15:47] bennabiy: the kernel - it uses predictable network interface naming [15:47] or udev? [15:48] Where can I get more info teward ? [15:48] bennabiy: enp2s0 isn't going to 'change' though - eth0 and eth1, etc. were not predictive [15:48] bennabiy: more info on... what? [15:48] https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/42126/making-1password-work-in-ubuntu-14-04 that doesnt seem to be working. i followed it to the T. anyone use 1password/wine? [15:48] bennabiy: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/ <-- more info on Predictable Network Interface Names [15:48] Skaag probably openjdk [15:48] teward: thank you [15:48] bennabiy: just replace 'eth0', etc. with the interface names listed in `ifconfig -a` [15:48] Anyone getting ridiculous overheating issues with an i7 haswell on 16.04? [15:49] bennabiy: no difference in how to configure /etc/network/interfaces from before, except you have to use a different interface name than 'ethX' [15:49] Hi, what does replace dh_pysupport which was in the package python-support, which doesn't exist in 16.04? [15:49] teward: thank you. I just was not used to the names, and wondered where they came from [15:50] teward: the link helps [15:50] Skaag sudo update-alternatives --config java [15:50] bennabiy: you're welcome! You can always make manual udev rules to enforce naming the old way, but I would advise against it unless you know what you're doing, because the predictable netowrk interface way means it always gets that name [15:51] teward: I am used to forcing name based on mac ID through udev [15:51] teward: I will try the predictable names and see if it is stable enough for my use case [15:51] Anyone getting ridiculous overheating issues with an i7 haswell on 16.04? I'm idleing at 75-85 [15:51] bennabiy: you still can if you wish - i'm just saying you don't *have* to in the long term [15:51] teward: understood [15:52] teward: the new name just threw me off [15:52] joe_b: you understand that i7 is probably nothing to do it, it's more likley the chipset and sensors on your board [15:53] ikonia: In windows it's totally fine, idles at 35-40*, I know its not the sensors [15:53] no you don't [15:53] guys i cannot install ubuntu coz halfway after on installation process my laptop gets automatically shut down, so i am looking for a wubi like solution for this issue. debootstrap does not work either. it gives tons of problems , any working action plan for this ? [15:53] just because the sensors and power managment is fully supported in windows, doesn't mean it is in linux [15:54] pitiye: I'd be more interested why your laptop shuts down, rather than looking for terrible install options [15:54] ikonia: would you know how to diagnose sensors so we can confirm? [15:54] ikonia: overheating most probably ! [15:54] joe_b: get the chipsets and look at their support status in linux [15:54] ikonia: it happened for both ubuntu and lubuntu ! [15:54] pitiye: so then a different install method is not the answer === Mdke is now known as Mdke_OFF [15:55] ikonia: why not, wubi like install might work, right now iam on 15.04 and its very stable , and does not overheat my laptop ! === dmurray is now known as CacheMoney [15:55] radeon_gem_object_create:62 alloc size 79Mb bigger than 64Mb limit [15:55] current getting that error in dmesg [15:56] when loading KDE for the first time [15:56] pitiye: a.) wubi is dead b.) if may still cause over heating c.) you still have a core problem of overheatig you'll need to address [15:57] ikonia: overheating is an issue when comes to using the gpu , which i dont use at all, coz i dont play games. mine is a Nvidia Optimus laptop, i believe gpu is the culprit ! === Targaryen is now known as Sir_Lestaty [15:57] pitiye: doesn't change what I said [15:57] ikonia: chipset is Haswell i7-4700MQ cant find a site that describes if it's supported or not, do you know of one? [15:57] pitiye: I had issues with my nvidia Optimus laptop overheating even when idling [15:58] joe_b: thats the cpu isn't it, not the chipset ? [15:58] I don't have it anymore but it can be an issue even under low demand [15:58] ikonia: my appologies i didnt know there was a difference [15:58] ikonia: but i am using 15.04 and it does not overheat at all ! [15:58] pitiye: not sure what that has to do with it ? [15:59] vultyre: i guess the GPU is the issue, when it's clock goes up gpu temp ramps up rapidly ! === GarrettShields_ is now known as GarrettShields [16:00] Pitiye: http://askubuntu.com/questions/758972/does-ubuntu-16-04-support-hybrid-grafics-cards-bumblebee. It looks like support for bumblebee was deprecated in 16.04 [16:01] Pitiye I switched laptops before 15.04 so I'm not sure if bumblebee was previously configured automatically in previous releases [16:02] Pitiye: it was not automatic when I was using 12.10 though [16:02] vultyre: bumblebee was never automatically configured ! [16:02] is there's some specific channel about .deb package building I got a missing command in 16.04 dh_pysupport doesn't seem to exist any more? [16:02] vultyre: i had to manually install every time [16:02] hello :) i burned the ubuntu server iso on a cd and would like to install it on an old computer that has windows xp on it. i would like to partition the drive. will i lose any file i have on the hard disk now? [16:02] RickyB98: depends how you partition it [16:03] ikonia: how should i partition it not to lose data? [16:03] RickyB98: don't delete the old partition [16:03] okay [16:03] will ask here if i have doubts [16:04] U won't rickyb92.. Jus click on install along side windows and it'll ask you to resize [16:05] will dd overwrite the first 2048 bits on the HDD? [16:05] if you tell it to [16:05] dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb ?? [16:05] that will write zeros on the whole disk [16:05] is it possible to install version of openssl in ubuntu 16.04 from ubuntu 14.04 ? [16:06] wwsw: no [16:06] ok, thx [16:06] ok good. my hard drive is saying its a zfs member no matter how i format it. i want to make sure it deletes the first bits where everything is stored. sound right? [16:06] wwsw: use 14.04 repos for 14.04 hosts [16:06] lubuntu-16.04 is working great on my ibook g4 but if anyone has any url's about getting sound, wifi, video 3d(ati) working on my hardware http://apaste.info/cUs - Please let me know what I have to modprobe to get this 99% working === serenase is now known as serenase_ [16:07] hi [16:07] ikonia: ok, but t is possible to compile older version openssl in 16.04 that from repos ? [16:08] wwsw: that is a very very bad idea [16:08] whats the cli version of sysinfo again? [16:08] שלום [16:08] lerner: inxi? [16:10] donofrio, as the proprietary AMD Catalyst (fglrx) driver has been t̶e̶m̶p̶o̶r̶a̶r̶i̶l̶y̶ removed the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS repositories, as it is not yet ported to X.Org Server 1.8, your video only works with the open driver .. btw why don't you ask in #debian, you clearly don't run ubuntu [16:10] test [16:11] OerHeks, hu? I loaded ubuntu on three ibooks last night, how can you say I don't run ubuntu? 16.04 lubuntu is what I curn to dvd [16:11] test2 [16:11] hrm [16:11] donofrio, not from you post. [16:11] OerHeks, do you have custom sources.list for fglrx usage even if not mainline supported [16:11] I did something stupid last night, accidentally installed 32-bit instead of 64-bit because I thought Core 2 Quad was 32 bit [16:12] only found out when I couldn't play Cities: Skylines [16:12] ben__: reinstall 64bit then [16:12] I did now [16:12] *I have now [16:12] donofrio: so your pastebin shows you running debian [16:12] well, actually, I decided to try Xubuntu instead [16:12] OerHeks, oh because the inxi looked like debain 8 yah cause that is my first try thought ppc was abandoned by ubuntu afetr 12.04 but looks like its alive and well [16:12] ikonia, that is just so I can get you good folks my hwinfo [16:12] donofrio: ? === serenase is now known as serenase_ [16:13] donofrio, i have no souceslist wit working ati drivers, i gave you the reason why you should stick to the opendriver [16:14] OerHeks, is open driver enought to run kodi.tv (aka need it to be hardware renedering I believe) [16:14] donofrio: there is no fglrx for 16.04. there is nothing you can change. [16:15] donofrio, no idea if that radeon 9550 can do that, test it yourself? [16:15] donofrio: amd is not making the fglrx for the xorg version all new linux distributions will use. use radeon or the new amd_gpu kernel drivers [16:16] k1l_, ok I'll try that in 2 hours....still owrking just wanna get these powerpc boxes working, I got two g5 cheese graters, 5 mac mini's 7 powerpc notebooks, titainum to ibook g4's so yah this is awesome that suppor is still here [16:18] is there a way I can mount a fs the connects to another system via ssh or scp? [16:18] if so, what's a preferred way of doing it? [16:18] package, etc [16:18] TheMontyChrist: what are you actually trying to do [16:18] TheMontyChrist: what Distribution [16:19] there's a directory of files on another machine that I'd like to access as if it were mounted [16:19] ubuntu 14.04 [16:19] is it possible to install 16.04 on already encrypted luks lvm? [16:19] I only have ssh access to the macine [16:19] dontknow: if you decypty it [16:19] ikonia, have you tried? [16:19] TheMontyChrist: look at "fuse" and "sshfs" [16:20] there are smb mount points, but unfortunately, the directory I want isn't exposed [16:20] dontknow: not recently [16:20] thanks [16:20] TheMontyChrist: ssh means sftp support. [16:20] ikonia, i scare that it doesn't ask password at boot [16:20] dontknow: it will if you put the key there for it [16:20] that STILL didnt do it. i have wiped this drive 20 different ways. used wipefs... used fdisk. and its still saying zfs_member when i blkid. any help? [16:21] dontknow: but to be honest, I don't know how you can have it already encypted and expect to use it for a different distro [16:21] this sounds like another one of your bad ideas [16:21] ikonia, all i need to decrypt and install right? [16:21] Hello. I've started getting an awful error with LibreOffice in 16.04. Opening many dialog windows crashes the entire session -- e.g., the automated document recovery menu on start will display garbled text and buttons, then actually pressing them usually results in a trip to the login screen. [16:21] Syslog shows the PackageKit daemon quitting on an error and then a GPU hang (this is i915, and [drm] prefaces a number of messages]. Question: should I only consider this a graphics stack error? Or, since this only happens in LibreOffice, should I also be trying to trace/report/debug on that side? I want to resolve this as quickly as I can, since it's totally blocking... [16:21] my computer is saying: This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU. Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU. [16:21] dontknow: how do you expect to use this [16:21] what does that mean? do i have to use the 32bit version? [16:21] ikonia, what do you mean? [16:21] hi there channel :-) [16:22] dontknow: well, you have a luks volume I'm guessing [16:22] ikonia, yes. i can open it and ubuntu sees it in the installer [16:22] RickyB98: sounds like you have a 32bit cpu [16:22] dontknow: ok - so if you already have a luks device, how can you partition it for ubuntu [16:22] dontknow: I'm assuming there is already something on the luks partition/device [16:22] Hello. I did a fresh install of ubuntu 16.04 on my old computer which has an ati radeon X1300 graphics card. Whenever the screen goes off due to inactivity (screen saver), it cannot be woken up by moving the mouse or hit a key. The same ubuntu 16.04 installed on a laptop with intel graphics does not have this problem. So I guess it's radeon related. Ubuntu says it's using : Gallium 0.4 on ATI RV515. [16:23] ikonia, it is already partitioned with lvm and ubuntu sees volumes in installer [16:23] dontknow: so this sounds like you are creating a problem, as ubuntu won't know about those volume groups post install unless you scan, activate and configure them [16:23] dontknow: is there anything on this luks device already ? [16:23] as in any data [16:24] ikonia, yes. there is volume for my home, root and files [16:24] home and root will be formatted [16:24] DirtyCajun, did you 'destroy' that zfs disk in your config? zfs destroy -f /path/bla/bla >> http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01/819-5461/gamnq/index.html [16:25] dontknow: so technically it will work, although I suspect you're going to end up creating a problem [16:25] OerHeks: it was NEVER a zfs in the first place [16:25] just install 14.04 through mini iso LXDE desktop environment old computer goes right. the point is to login automatically without typing the password [16:25] ikonia, yeah that is what i am scare of [16:25] some time ago I installed ubuntu on my pendrive, now I try to boot it, and my computer tells me: "No bootmgr found. Press any key to restart" [16:25] is there any way to rescue it? [16:26] RickyB98: what cpu is it? [16:26] ok, new issue: after I changed the server name to `dockyard@production` we have a script that was previously doing Node.connect(:"dockyard@127.0.0.1") and I updated those but now I get: "16:25:21.605 [error] ** System running to use fully qualified hostnames ** ** Hostname production is illegal **" [16:26] green_snow, is it persistent install?

[19:21] are they not all handled by one app in the OS pedrito ? [19:21] xchat's developer became insane, the free software world has no tolerance for that, requires no tolerance for that [19:21] inocuous, or you could try xchat-gnome [19:21] so is there any way to fix upstart booting? [19:21] inocuous: they are, but if you were more clear, you could get better help [19:22] xchat-gnome is not xchat :°°°( [19:22] !touch | SvenBo [19:22] SvenBo: Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch .

[19:22] vexare: There is no "upstart" in 16.04 ... it is systemd as the control authoruty . [19:22] inocuous: use hexchat. [19:23] ok, so after upgrade to 16.04 I get redirected back to the login screen after typing my password. Does anyone have a suggestion for where to look for errors? [19:23] (and not xchat) [19:23] inocuous: which should be fine ordinarily, so again, can you elaborate? [19:23] I'm in hexchat already. big fan. I like it a lot. [19:23] login to console only works fine. [19:23] Bashing-om: you can switch and there's an official guide [19:23] Yxhuvud: grep EE /var/log/X*log [19:23] it's just half broken [19:24] It's just that where there are a lot of notifications it can be a long time after the event that the notification appears.

What do you use ? fcitx ? [19:42] hgth, possibly 'sudo apt-get autoremove' if you've got old kernel versions on there (eg if the partition has been used for a while and you've installed updates when they've become available). Or, uninstall programs you don't need. And check whether any logging is filling up your / with anything.

[19:47] hgth: try sudo apt-get install ncdu [19:47] wieurywi: But I’m trying to get rid of software ;) [19:47] hgth: browse /var/log for old syslog.0 or .1 ..etc. dmesg.0 logs [19:47] I just used a live ubuntu disk with gparted to delete all my partitions so i could start again (had errors in windows, wanted to upgrade linux also) [19:48] I'm wondering what should I do when I have deleted all partitions.. [19:48] hgth, what wieurywi said! [19:48] leave it all unformatted + deleted (no file system?) , put in windows recovery *first* and format ntfs and then let ubuntu create dual boot with grub etc [19:49] Also: "cd /;sudo du -csh *' will show you where on your root partition the space is being used, and you can investigate why a lot is in one place or another... [19:50] or make a specfici windows partition now and install windows into it [19:51] theKingBaby: If you deleted the whole partition there is not mutch you can do. I suggest if that is possible to reinstall everything. I don't see any guarantee on getting your data back intact if that is what you are worryed about [19:52] *worried [19:53] Remember First, install windows because it assumes he is the only OS on the computer, ahd only after that you install linux [19:54] no no, i dont care about the data, backed up everything important. Deleted the drives on purpose [19:54] yeah okay thats what i was thinking was the best route, thanks jimmy_ [19:54] so should i leave it all 'deleted'/unformatted or format it to ntfs now? [19:54] i have created windows recovery media already [19:55] how can i customize the splash screen in the boot menu used by the Ubuntu server iso ( not Desktop ) [19:55] You can format it to ntfs iw you wanted to, but i guess windows installer will see a large chunk of unformatted space, so it will give you the option of partitioning. Then again I do not use windows! [19:56] I would go with this: Create all partitions in gparted, then install windows on one of them === badon_ is now known as badon [19:57] okay i will do that then [19:57] thanks bro [19:57] Good luck! [19:58] anytime :) [19:58] Thanks for all your advice! [19:58] oh one more thing [19:58] primary/extended partitions [20:00] Good night! I have just installed Ubuntu 16.04 and enablea Ubuntu Firewall ufw typing sudo ufw enable. After startup the ufw is disabled I type sudo ufw status and it is disabled. What can I do in order to get ufw enabled after computer startup? Many thanks in advance :) [20:00] llusato, have you tried "sudo systemctl enable ufw"? [20:00] And "sudo systemctl start ufw" so as to start it [20:01] No what is the difference with sudo ufw enable? Many thanks! :) I'm gonna try it! [20:02] theKingBaby: I suggest this reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Partitions [20:02] llusato, easy way is to install gufw, the gui for ufw, you will find it in systemsettings ( unless you run server [20:03] llusato, systemctl is the new init system, it's that simple. But yeah, gufw will help you more, specially since it's integrated with the system settings [20:03] yes I have already installed gufw I enable it but after startup it is disabled [20:05] odd, that does not happen here, once set with gufw, it starts auto [20:06] systemctl status ufw [20:07] ● ufw.service - Uncomplicated firewall Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/ufw.service; enabled; vendor preset: enab Active: active (exited) since dt 2016-04-26 21:50:42 CEST; 16min ago Main PID: 232 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Tasks: 0 (limit: 512) CGroup: /system.slice/ufw.service [20:09] llusato, then it's enabled right now [20:09] can someone tell me how i can prevent all HDD's from automounting without preventing usb's from automounting [20:10] llusato, do "sudo systemctl enable ufw" to make sure, it won't fail like that (I hope) [20:10] or point me to a good article? [20:10] ok. I have already done it. Can I try to reboot the computer now to check if it is fixed? [20:12] I have like 24 HDD that I dont want to see, but i do want other media to be detected after i plug it in [20:13] llusato, yeah, try it [20:14] Ok many thanks! Cross fingers! :) Bye! :) [20:15] ubet: per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB it's not clear how to control it more finely, but youc an disable general automounting with dconf editor [20:15] ubet, create fstab noauto entries for them? [20:15] ubet: you might look into one of the alternative programs mentioned there for maybe a more customizable option than Gnome's general support [20:16] ubet, mounted partitions in /media/ show up, mount them in /mnt/ >> http://askubuntu.com/a/180677 [20:16] ugly but not that harmfull [20:17] ok i'll read through that. === jwheare_local_ is now known as jwheare_local [20:19] Hi, I have a crash of the session (and I'm brought back to the login screen) randomly, apparently related with the use/presence of Telegram official client. But I'm not sure it is related. [20:20] Hello! I have just asked you to enable ufw after startup. I have typed sudo systemclt start ufw and sudo systemctl enable ufw. Checked it was enabled but after startaup it is not enable! Do you have any solution to this issue? Many thanks in advance! :) [20:22] Hey guys, I installed Google Earth x64 on my 14.04.4 LTS install...now my touch pad doesn't work... Any ideas? [20:22] Hello, would anyone be able to help me troubleshoot suspend on a Razer Blade laptop? [20:22] Hmm, would removing apparmor from a ubuntu server 14.04 install 'cause the system to not bootup? [20:23] Here is a list of dependencies it requires: Here is a list of dependencies I had to install to get it running at 64bit: http://pastebin.com/U60Gd7fu [20:23] In an attempt to try out ISPConfig3 on my server, the installation instructions directed me to remove AppArmor, and now my system halts on startup, and I am wondering if AppArmor not being present is the cause of it. [20:24] and if it is, can I just use apt-get install apparmor apparmor_profiles and restore it === mixete is now known as mix`AwAy [20:40] hello everyone, my internet connection was gone when I was downloading files from server via filezilla. now I reconnected but the connection has naturally been cut off. how can I reconnect without resetting the transfer, that is, continue from where it was stopped? [20:40] I mean, the transfer has been cut off [20:40] jinette: I don't think Filezilla provides that type of functionality [20:41] teward, that I fear, too [20:42] just as I said that, filezilla resumed transfer by itself. so no action is needed to be taken in such cases [20:43] I have been talking to ubuntu webchat in freenode before to try to solve the problem with ufw not enabling after startup. I typed sudo systemctl start ufw and sudo systemctl enable ufw and after reboot ufw is disabled. What can I do to fix this situation and getting ufw enabled after startup automatically? [20:45] Many thanks. :) [20:45] llusato, what version of ubunutu are you on? I usually run "sudo ufw enable" and everything works fine. you can look in /etc/ufw/ufw.conf and set ENABLED to "yes" to force it I would think? [20:45] 16.04 [20:45] I'm using an older version of ubuntu so some of that might not apply :p [20:46] I have already done this. Thanks alyyy :) [20:46] I have also tried sudo ufw enable but did not fix it [20:47] llusato, no worries! will it run when you start it up manually? like it's not choking on the config before it starts, right? [20:48] Do you mean if I start up ufw manually if it works? yes manually is enabled but not automatically after reboot [20:49] anything unusual in the logs? [20:49] how can I see it the logs? [20:49] sorry but I'm quite new on this ;) [20:51] I'm able to connect to my time capsule using //10.0.1.1/Data /media/timecapsule cifs... in fstab, but im not sure where to begin to connect to the hard drive that's actually connected to the time capsule. on windows, it auto-finds the harddrive connected to the time capsule. Any ideas? [20:52] llusato, I'm actually not super sure? older ubuntus you can run this: "less /var/log/ufw.log", but I think you need to use the "journalctl" command. try "journalctl ufw". [20:53] sorry I'm not more help, I don't have 16 installed yet ;) [20:57] UNetbootin offers an option to preserve files across reboots, but it says "Ubuntu only".

[21:16] llusato: I know it is not the best way to solve your problem, but could help using a script on startup to launch the firewall? [21:17] user7778 I prefer a clean solution this is not a good way to solve it is not it? [21:18] do you have any idea why is it happening? [21:18] No, clearly it isn't :) [21:19] No, I'm trying to figure it out... [21:19] hi guys im having trouble with a jvm. when starting a sprng application i get a "failed to write core dump." and it suggets setting "ulimit -c unlimited". I've done that and even rebooted but the error persists. [21:19] ok [21:19] take your time... :) [21:21] hi, does anyone here have this problem in Xenial, randomly while I'm using my OS, the interface completely logs off and sends me back to the logon screen what gives? [21:22] bobby_: that sounds like your xserver crashing. i would look into the syslog and Xorg.0.log in /var/log/ [21:23] bobby_: mmm, is it always after a certain interval? of inactivity? [21:23] well it's usually when I'm multitasking [21:25] see it just happened again! [21:25] bobby_: that sounds like your xserver crashing. i would look into the syslog and Xorg.0.log in /var/log/ [21:25] and look into the .xsession-errors in your users home [21:25] Hey. I did a fresh install of 16.04 but have run into an issue at login. My kb doesn't load properly and no modifiers or function keys are available. Everything is fine during install but this happens on first boot after install. I tried to reinstall 3x but couldn't resolve it, so I reverted back to a fresh install of 14.04. Now I have the same problem with 14.04. I've never seen this before and can't find a solution anywhere. Any suggestions? [21:25] what exactly is an xserver? [21:26] bobby_: the programs that runs all the gui with the video drivers. [21:26] X is the base of a Unixy desktop environment [21:26] all the GUI stuff you see [21:26] it has a client/server model [21:26] will be replaced by wayland eventually, and then probably something else after that [21:26] death & birth, rinse & repeat [21:27] oh ok [21:27] so maybe even if I upgraded my gui it could help? [21:27] I was thinking about installing enlightenment [21:28] ok. so you dont want to see the cause and fix that. so good luck with installing and reinstalling random stuff. [21:28] Dagda: have you checked your keyboard layout in settings? [21:28] k1l: I do ok? [21:28] k1l: brb [21:30] aptitude informs me of updates, but I cannot view their changelog: http://nrrd.de/y-u-no-changelog.png How log does it usually take for changelog to be propagated to the mirrors? [21:31] Yes, to clarify, if I go to BIOS, all my keys are available. If I load a Live OS, all my keys are available. This only appears to happen at login. NUM LOCK, CAPS, Shift etc. just stop working, meaning that I can't type in my PW. I've tried changing settings with the Live OS but same happens again. I assumed it was an issue with 16.04 but not so it seems. BIOS settings seem fine too. [21:31] so what should I be looking for in syslog, x.org errors? [21:31] bronsen: what package? [21:32] bronsen: btw, that ip is down for me, too [21:32] llusato: sorry, i can't find any solution for your problem :/ but I'm starting to think it is not related with the warning [21:32] it might be the auto-detect of keyboard during install is not doing it right [21:33] anybody had a similar issue before? [21:33] llusato:sure there is someone with way more knowledge than me [21:33] bobby_: for issues with your video driver or with the xserver [21:33] k1l: apt, dpkg, debootstrap, firefox, libmysqlclient, tzdata; other packages' changelog can be found (libpcre, libsnmp, linux-firmware, python-setproctitle) [21:33] Possibly, but I'm using the same install image for 14.04 I've used multiple times in the past without issue, and I've used this 16.04 image to install to a VM on my Mac and to another laptop without issues. I'm at a total loss... [21:33] ok how can I contact he or she? [21:34] bronsen: what ubuntu is that exactly? [21:34] k1l: org.gtk.vfs.Daemon[13336]: ?? [21:35] I don't see any x.org issues in the log [21:35] bobby_: depends on the exact errormessage [21:35] Ok user7778 many thanks for your help I think now it's time to sleep I'll try to ask again the same question tomorrow... good night! :) [21:36] ok I need to go read up on what you told me k1l thanks for your input guys [21:36] hello, looking 2 days for solution, i made usb with 16.04 with usb-creator in 15.10; my usb pendrive is write-protected [21:36] llusato: as you see I'm here like you to discuss a problem, unfortunately I don't know who could help you better... goodnight and good luck for tomorrow! :) [21:36] thanks! Bye! :) [21:37] k1l: I am on 14.04.4; according to "apt-cache profile" package dpkg would be updated from de.archive.ubuntu.com (trusty-updates) or security.ubuntu.com (trusty-security) [21:37] h not profile [21:37] err policy it is [21:37] been using aliases for too long :) [21:39] any method to take off write-protection? [21:39] bronsen: the new pacakge is referencing http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/d/dpkg/dpkg_1.17.5ubuntu5.6/changelog while there is only a dpkg_1.17.5ubuntu5.5 on the changelogs server [21:40] beejay: what are you trying to do? save data to the thumbdrive as you use it? [21:41] someone who has the patience to troubleshoot an Xserver log? [21:41] i want to have live usb and copy my data to it to [21:42] If so, use Ubuntu's Startup disk creator to make the usb [21:43] You can say how much space you want to use as the persistent drive [21:43] i did, but i have 2 partitions and usb write protected, so i can not write, make another partition [21:43] it is 32gb, i need around 12gb [21:44] also gparted is showing errors about thumbdrive and that partitions cover each other [21:45] You might need to redo the USB [21:45] k1l: do you know how it usually takes for changelogs to appear? [21:45] i can only make new partition table, nothing else [21:45] bronsen: here is the changelog: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/1.17.5ubuntu5.6 i dont know why the changelog server got issues. i asked the admins. [21:45] Are you using msdos version of partition table? [21:45] i tried different tools - dd, mkusb - same results [21:45] k1l: ah! I hadn't thought of looking at LP, thanks for the pointer! [21:46] i guess startup disk creator is making partition table [21:47] yes. I'm about to do it now. I'll let you know [21:48] although in this case I read the diff to mean "replace return by exit" and not what the changelog suggests "replace exit by return" [21:48] it is showing in gparted mac type partition table === kkkkkkk is now known as Guest61888 [21:49] There is no option to make a persistent partition in 16.04! [21:49] and error about block size [21:50] i actually do not need persistent partition [21:50] i want to use rest of thumbdrive to copy data [21:50] beejay i made a usb with startup-disk-creator on an usb, that works but gparted just shows rubbish nonsense [21:51] it worked for installing from usb stick though [21:51] de-facto - my usb is working, but it is useless for other things [21:51] yup [21:52] I'm working on it. dd may be a better solution [21:53] any solution to remove write-protection; in windows you can change sth in registry, i have no windows [21:53] i tried dd - same result [21:54] like sth in iso making thumbdrive write-protected [21:54] beejay: the live-OS is just mounted read-only. you cant change that that easy. that is the idea behind the live os. [21:54] beejay: so what you want is an "persistence" install. [21:55] i read all the stroy about change in disk creator, no more persistence [21:55] i do not need persistance, i need usb with live ubuntu and place to backup data [21:56] i can do it on another partition [21:56] but i can not create it because it is write protected [21:57] You cannot add it to the iso partition. You need to make another partition [21:57] The ISO9660 standard filesystem is read-only [21:58] i can not create another partition because thumbdrive is write protected [21:58] beejay what do you mean with "it is write protected"? what and how did you find out? [21:58] beejay: make sure its not mounted [21:59] disks is showing errors with block size, gparted the same, hdparm is displaying "dev write -protected" [22:01] beejay hmm interessting, do you see something about it in "dmesg"? [22:01] disks: udisks-error-quark [22:01] when trying to make new partition [22:03] beejay do you want to reformat it? [22:03] no problem with it [22:04] i can do new partition table in qparted [22:07] anything i was trying it was showing that whole /dev/sda is write-protected, not partitions [22:07] is there a special trick to make a ubuntu iso flash drive bootable on macbook? I already have lubuntu installed on the computer and would like to start fresh but I can't get any disk to show up on the startup screen except one called "windows" [22:08] as i do new partition table abd new partitions everything is good; any method i use to put iso into thumbdrive makes it whole write protected [22:09] beejay yeah because its presented as iso9660 probably [22:10] ok I have a macmini here running 16.04 ppc and I have no sound, slow refreshing video I'm wondering what do I have to modprobe to get this resolved http://apaste.info/z6R [22:11] standard method of putting an iso on a usb stick involves using something like dd to image it onto it, this makes all of whatever is being written to with the dd command (i.e. of=/dev/sdb) be seen as one "image" until things are changed, there are utilities to make a multiboot, and therefore multipartitioned usb boot stick, but they aren't exactly failproof. [22:11] beejay i mean that partition on the thumb drive is iso9660 (as a burned cd), so you wont be able to write to it then [22:11] Struggling to get password-less login between machines on my local network working (via ssh; newly installed 16.04 on both machines). Followed my normal routine: ssh-keygen -t dsa (no passphrase); ssh-copy-id to the relevant machine. But no still getting prompted for a password by the remote machine after the newly generated key has been installed. See: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16071736/ [22:11] donofrio: did they do a mac mini PPC ? [22:11] donofrio: they where all intel [22:12] donofrio: wow - they did a PPC mini, the spec sucks [22:12] donofrio: it's not going to work well with ubuntu [22:13] specs aside, do you know how to enable the soundcard and faster refreshing video? [22:13] beejay: I think it's the Ubuntu Iso's fault. I don't think we used to have this problem [22:14] donofrio: the video refresh is because the spec sucks [22:14] donofrio: the video card is terrible and the support for that card is terrible [22:14] 1st partition is iso, second is fat (uefi) [22:15] any way to do a "factory reset" of some sort on my macbook 1,1? I can't get it to boot from a usb drive anymore... [22:15] but it is like all thumbdrive write-protected [22:15] You should be able to make a 3rd, but I can't make it work either. [22:15] newjersey: the guys in ##apple can help [22:16] i can not, because i got this error about block size - in gparted and in disks [22:16] beejay if the whole drive were write protected (which is possible with some chipsets, but i doubt you could trigger that without special tools), you also could not write a partition table to the blockdevice, right? [22:16] Got an apt error preventing me from installing or removing anything http://pastebin.com/7vwGVkMA [22:16] ikonia, did ubuntu keep the agp port logic in the kernel, I heard debian it was removed that is why video is slow... [22:17] donofrio: the video card just sucks and the support for it sucks [22:17] donofrio: it's that simple - ubuntu is too demanding for such a low spec machine [22:17] mike-drummer: you have a few external repos in there - remove them [22:17] i can do new partiotin table [22:18] mike-drummer: you appear to have backup files .bck too [22:18] remove them, apt doesn't like that [22:18] ikonia, this is linux relax not everyone is in a hurry for speed, just want answers to how to resolve the soundcard first [22:18] then the video [22:18] donofrio: what ? [22:18] donofrio: I am relaxed, I'm just explaining - it's not going to work on that mac [22:18] See if that works. You can mount the other partition from the live environment [22:18] linux run's on an RPi it can run ona mac mini just fine [22:19] donofrio: the pi is more equipped for it and ubuntu doesn't run "great" on it [22:19] ikonia, :( there is no one there [22:19] ikonia: what [22:19] newjersey: there are many people there [22:19] I mean nobody is talking [22:19] newjersey: then wait [22:20] newjersey: you've waited less than a minute [22:20] Alguna nena de chile? [22:20] donofrio: apple hardware needs special treatment most times. better see the ubuntu wiki or forums or askubuntu about the experiences from other users with that exact hardware [22:20] i did new partition table gpt [22:20] k1l: it's dead PPC and support removed ATI [22:20] what is better dd or disk creator? [22:21] beejay: better for what ? [22:21] for putting iso into thumbdrive [22:21] beejay if you use those you will overwrite your partition table [22:21] i did [22:22] maybe i do not catch [22:22] mike-drummer: and you have a wrong 3rd party repo there too. [22:22] i put right now new gpt prtition table [22:23] there is no partitions [22:23] when i use dd or disk creator it will do partitions [22:23] but also will change partition table === dixon2 is now known as dixonstalbert === badon_ is now known as badon [22:25] Ahhh, sorted my ssh/passwordless login problem. Just use RSA keys rather than DSA ones. [22:25] I'm really disappointed. I paved over a solid install of Korora 23 for this. Not happy [22:26] and why not just install to a different partition to give it a test drive if you were happy with korora 23? [22:26] yes beejay /dev/sdX is the whole thumbdrive as block device, /dev/sdX1 /dev/sdX2 and so on the partitions on it, so if you dd to the blockdevice it will overwrite the partitiontable and also provide a bootloader (as needed for booting) [22:26] I'm wanting to try some Ubuntu development stuff. I cloned a git repository for gnome-terminal, but am having some trouble getting it to build. Is this the right channel? Or is there a dev channel somewhere? [22:26] wad: with respect, how do you expect to do development if you don't konw how to do a build of a stable component ? [22:26] Because I love Ubuntu. I was just test driving Korora until 16.04 released [22:27] I'm sure it will get better, but not a good desktop launch. [22:27] i mean, i love ubuntu too, but i wouldn't just throw away something that's running like greased lightning downhill with a tailwind [22:27] I will wait 6 months or so to update my servers [22:28] I did a systemback of Korora, so it would only take 30 to 60 minutes to get it back up and running, but I'm going to stick with it for a month or so [22:29] ikonia, also with respect, I know how to build stuff, but I think I may be following the wrong path in this case. The latest gnome-terminal requires GTK+ 3.12, but reading about it online says that Ubuntu Unity only works with 3.10.8.... Perhaps I'm using the wrong gnome-terminal package? [22:29] wad: you don't seem to know how to build it, as you're not debugging it at al [22:29] all [22:30] wad: dependency matching is something that should be done before you try/start to build [22:30] I read this online: "After Gnome 3.10 , there happened huge differences on Gnome side, it's not compatible with current Ubuntu. Even compiz won't work properly. Ubuntu team patches Gnome to use it. You had better wait until Ubuntu team patches and upgrades gtk3.10 and gnome stuff. – kenn Jul 22 '15 at 21:02" [22:30] wad: ok ? [22:31] howdy y'all ubuntu 1604 i wiped /sda in gparted and set to ext4 but i cant edit anything or create files. how to fix ? [22:31] I was hoping I could compile up my own version of gnome-terminal, perhaps so I could integrate cssh into it. Because I'd rather the multiple terminals open as tabs in gnome-terminal, instead of those little xterm windows..... [22:31] gnome-terminal already supports tabs [22:31] ArrEmmArrEff: how are you trying to create files on it ? [22:32] ArrEmmArrEff: keep in mind /dev/sda is a disk, not a partition [22:32] ikonia, yea, I use them all the time. I even customized the color, to make the active one pop more! [22:32] But when I run cssh, it doesn't use gnome-terminal. It opens little xterm windows. [22:32] sudo mkdir works but i want to beable to use right click in nautilus. im not sure what permissions or chmod stuff to do [22:32] wad:....isn't that just a conifg line [22:33] It sure is. :) [22:33] Anyway, I've always wanted to try doing some linux dev stuff. Figured this would be a good place to start. [22:33] wad: so why are you looking at compiling things to fix a config problem ? [22:33] just change the config [22:33] ArrEmmArrEff: where is the disk mounted ? [22:33] Does LUKS slow down considerably the system? === kubuntu is now known as Guest76080 [22:33] hI [22:34] ikonia: sorry its /dev/sda5 [22:34] What are the system requirements for ubunto 16.. LTS? [22:34] Ubuntu [22:34] iSlayWyverns: it has an overhead at decyrpt time, there is a "buffer" it passes through before it commits to disk (virtually) so there is an overhead, but.....it really depends. Most won't see it [22:34] ArrEmmArrEff: where is it mounted [22:34] ArrEmmArrEff, in the worst case 'sudo chmod -R user:user /media/user/your_disk' [22:34] ikonia, I don't have a config problem.... was just trying to get gnome-terminal to compile from code, having dependency issues, came here looking to see if there was a development channel of some sort. [22:34] chown I mean [22:35] doesn't seem noticeable (brb) [22:35] wad: you do have a config problem as you're complaining that cssh doesn't use gnome terminal [22:35] wad: if you're compiling on ubuntu try `apt-get build-dep gnome-terminal` to install all the dependencies used to build the package [22:35] no, no [22:35] ikonia: im not sure how to tell where its mounted [22:35] do not randomly type that === v1rtuosoj is now known as virtuosoj [22:36] can i do a 'in-target' preseed command AND a non 'in-target' command in preseed ? [22:36] ikonia, Ah, I didn't realize that cssh could be configured to use gnome-terminal! I'll give it a shot. [22:36] ArrEmmArrEff, open 'Drives' and look there [22:36] i have not been able to figure out how [22:36] nacc: I'll try that too. [22:36] terratoma: yes, you can [22:36] wad: do not randomly ype build-dep [22:36] wad have you read man of cssh completely? are you sure you cant just configure cssh to use gnome-terminal? [22:36] I think I messed up. trying to install wine and typed "sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386" in terminal [22:36] ikonia: ack, thought wad specifically wanted to recompile, sorry [22:36] nacc: he did - but for the wrong reasons [22:37] not it won't let me apt update & upgrade ... [22:37] nacc: 1 line in config doesn't need a recompile [22:37] *now [22:37] ikonia: yep, reread the backlog, sorry [22:37] nacc: not a problem [22:37] Multbrelch: i feel so dumb where is drives? [22:37] de-facto, I had not. Doing it now. [22:37] "N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-1386/Packages' as repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/ravefinity-project/ppa/ubuntu xenial InRelease' doesn't support architecture '1386' [22:37] " [22:37] ArrEmmArrEff, you know how to open a terminal? If so do it [22:37] I can't get grubia32.efi onto a flash drive to load on my eeepc book [22:37] nacc: do you think my syntax is correct? https://dpaste.de/cMJa/raw [22:38] How do I remove this error? [22:38] virtuosoj: you have your answer in the error [22:38] Multbrelch: k [22:38] virtuosoj: and l386 is not i386 [22:38] T_T [22:38] any clue how to resolve block size problem? [22:38] 1386 is different to i386 [22:38] ArrEmmArrEff, in the terminal, type 'ls -al /media/ [22:38] maybe that's how I messed up [22:38] well... definitely [22:38] how do I undo that? [22:38] edit the repo file [22:39] ArrEmmArrEff, you see the drive's name? [22:39] yes [22:39] k [22:39] ArrEmmArrEff, in the terminal, find the user right for your drive [22:39] ArrEmmArrEff, is it you or root? [22:39] terratoma: to be clear, the first two lines in the "this does not" section do work, and it's just the last that does not? [22:40] ikonia, how do I locate repo file? [22:40] Multbrelch: drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Apr 26 19:26 [22:40] Very good! [22:40] virtuosoj: its in /etc/yum.repos.d [22:40] oops [22:40] virtuosoj: sorry, ignore that [22:40] virtuosoj: /etc/apt/sources.list.d [22:40] So, is there some stuff on the hard drive or is it still empty?, ArrEmmArrEff [22:40] you use fedora? :P [22:40] virtuosoj: I was on auto pilot, sorry [22:41] nacc: yeah! first example worked fine. second i get Failed to run preseeded command [22:41] i just a test dir i made with sudo mkdir to see if it would work [22:41] ArrEmmArrEff, in the terminal type: sudo chown -R : /media// [22:42] i added a user to the sudoers group with gpasswd -a sudo but when i went back and logged ont o that user they didn't have sudo privilege [22:42] what else do i need to do [22:42] ArrEmmArrEff, after you do: ls -al /media/ ... the owner should be you then [22:42] terratoma: sorry, i meant specifically in the second, do the first two lines work on their own (with the line-continuation)? They should, just checking [22:43] beejay not really, i guess there is something weird about the iso maybe? if you want to start from scratch with your thumbdrive you could dd some zeros to it and reformat it with gparted then (as it will look factory clean). then i guess you could copy the files from within the iso onto a partition and need to install a bootloader to the thumdrive then (not sure if that will work i always was too lazy to do that manually) [22:43] nacc: yes. it stops working when i add the 'in-target' part [22:43] im going to confirm again though [22:43] Multbrelch: does s3@s3:~$ sudo chown -R s3:s3 /media/s3/Landfill [22:43] look right ? [22:43] yes, works without the 'in-target' part [22:44] s3 is the user's name and Landfill is the disk's name? [22:44] ArrEmmArrEff, ^ [22:44] yes [22:44] good evening [22:44] Yes, then it should work [22:44] terratoma: ok, let me compare to some examples i've used in the past [22:44] thanks [22:45] terratoma: have you tried doin all three as in-target commands? [22:45] trying... [22:45] terratoma: e.g., in-target cp -ra /media/cdrom/pool /pool... [22:45] Multbrelch: ikonia thanks guys you fixed it [22:46] GOOD! [22:46] chaown => change owner, chmod => change user rights <= all this very important, ArrEmmArrEff, google for it ... [22:46] chown [22:47] nacc: i am going to try https://dpaste.de/cn1T/raw [22:47] Multbrelch: was the -R to do everything on the drive? [22:47] -R means recursive ArrEmmArrEff [22:47] terratoma: shouldn't need /target in the destination? [22:47] ArrEmmArrEff, in the terminal type 'man chown' <= manual [22:48] terratoma: of the first command [22:48] terratoma: oh and *each* line needs to have in-target [22:48] good point, thanks [22:48] aiui [22:48] Multbrelch: i did google it but found different answers and just wanted some help before i make it worse haha thanks again tho :)))) === mike_ is now known as Guest55730 [22:48] :) [22:48] terratoma: like in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1977570 [22:48] im trying this: https://dpaste.de/dXMv/raw [22:49] oops i have typo again [22:49] ArrEmmArrEff, in the worst case, look into the manpages of the machine you are using, e.g., do a 'man chown' [22:49] terratoma: lost late_command? :) [22:49] am reading it now [22:49] and one more time... https://dpaste.de/jM8x/raw [22:50] terratoma: that seems right to me [22:50] just to be sure: a file can belong to only one group? [22:50] I've installed kubuntu 15.10 on my hp dv7-4051 (radeon 5650m). [22:50] I've installed the proprietary ati-driver using the driver manager, now it doesn't boot any more. [22:50] I have no idea how to trouble shoot this - the splash screen looks normal, than disappears and nothing happens after that [22:52] hello everyone, I dont get an upgrade alert for 16.04. is it maybe not the time for it yet? [22:52] hey there, is there a VMWare client for linux?, I am in the middle of deciding if I am going to use VMWare or Zhen Serveratm [22:52] riqj: it won't offer to upgrade til 16.04.1 [22:52] riqj: what version of ubuntu are you on? === root is now known as Guest43831 [22:53] LaserAllan id recomment VirtualBox from my experience it works really well on ubuntu [22:53] nacc, 14.04. LTS [22:53] at first, how can i switch back to the open driver? [22:54] LaserAllan or virt-manager [22:54] riqj: ah then what EriC^^ said [22:54] EriC^^, ah, thank you [22:54] thank you, nacc [22:55] de-facto: Is it an official client for VMWare? [22:55] security.ubuntu.com is down? [22:55] but then can I upgrade directly from 14.04. to 16.04.? [22:55] I've looked around and there seems to quite a few options. [22:56] riqj: yeah [22:56] riqj: upgrades between LTS releases are always possible, provided you don't use any third-party PPAs [22:56] !ltsupgrade | riqj [22:56] riqj: Users of 14.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 16.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 21st. [22:57] if you *do* use third-party PPAs, you might have to disable them [22:57] LaserAllan nope not from VmWare, Virtualbox is from Oracle and virt-manager from redhat i guess [22:57] EriC^^, I mean if I want to upgrade now..how would it work? I guess 'sudo do-release-upgrade -d' is for usual upgrades, not for LTS [22:57] or is it= [22:57] ? [22:57] riqj: if you pass -d, you will get put onto yakkety [22:57] riqj: which you do not want [22:57] I mean not from one LTS to the next [22:57] riqj: well, right *now* right now is not possible, since the update server is down [22:58] riqj: you could download the iso, and in the installer choose to upgrade, never tried it though [22:58] riqj: IMO, presuming you are on LTS for stability and support, just wait til 16.04.1 [22:58] yes, I can do that. only I wanted to know if it there'd be a simple way [22:59] anyone know where I can find a zip file containing the same files that I would get if I ran debootstrap xenial? [22:59] by the way, what is yakkety? the name for 16.10.? [22:59] bananapie_: wouldn't you really want a VM image? [22:59] i need it for chroot [23:00] !yakkety | riqj [23:00] riqj: Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) will be the 25th release of Ubuntu. It is due to be released in October 2016. Discussion in #ubuntu+1 [23:00] ah :) [23:00] de-facto: Ok so basically to remote manage a VMWare server I will have to use WIndows? [23:00] Hello [23:00] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakety_Sax [23:01] LaserAllan im not familiar with VmWare but there is https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/downloads [23:01] nacc: i have failed http://i.imgur.com/LvhRB35.png [23:02] I have some questions [23:02] de-facto: Lemme check, becuase I am in the process of setting up a backups erver tha tis going to run a linux VM an aWindows VM the linux vm is ging to handle network device backups ebcuase windows cannot do that [23:02] and need a little help [23:02] so i am kinda having to trick Crashplan into backing up it anyway [23:02] like stage 3 of gentoo [23:02] I am currently on 'Lubuntu' [23:02] thank you for your replies! enjoy your day! [23:03] im planning on installing it, [23:03] And [23:03] I'm replacing WinXP [23:03] but [23:03] it says that ill lose my docs [23:03] well [23:03] it shows me partitions actually [23:03] but will I LOSE my files? [23:04] LaserAllan if you are able to read german language there is something in the wiki here https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/VMware_Player/ [23:04] hence there are linux versions avail [23:05] de-facto: I am actually, just plain retarded that german is the language and not english lol [23:05] i added a user to the sudoers group with gpasswd -a sudo but when i went back and logged ont o that user they didn't have sudo privilege [23:05] LaserAllan use google translate, though id probably choose virt-manager for such a scenario myself [23:06] de-facto: Although, is VMWare better than Zhen Server for this?, if you know what I am talking about :) [23:07] LaserAllan i dont know anything about Zhen Server [23:07] maybe you meant Xen? [23:08] de-facto: Sorry I misspelled [23:08] Xen server is the name [23:09] nacc: i guess the real problem is the apt-ftparchive command i am trying does not want to work in preseed for some reason ( works great after reboot ). dunno. probably not preseed's fault [23:10] Uh...? [23:10] no answer? [23:10] hm [23:10] Jbmorris289: patience is a virtue [23:10] Jbmorris289: if you "replace" WinXP and overwrite, then you *will* lose the WinXP files [23:10] i need to figures this out without screwing - [23:10] Darn [23:10] it [23:10] you have to do a side-by-side install if you want to keep the WinXP files [23:10] Jbmorris289: or copy them to an external disk to preserve them [23:11] I have another partition [23:11] thats one thing [23:11] Jbmorris289, if you don't have a backup of your *important* files, they are not important. [23:11] ^ that [23:11] and true, patience IS a virtue... [23:12] ill probably just [23:12] Jbmorris289: what are you trying to do again? [23:12] back it up on the second partition of my computer's HDD [23:12] bprompt: replace winXP [23:12] with Lubuntu [23:12] Jbmorris289: ok... and what's stopping you? [23:12] losing docs [23:13] Jbmorris289: you mean, you only have one partition? [23:13] i have two [23:13] well LaserAllan thats not really an ubuntu related question, neither Citrix XenServer nor VmWare is in the repositories, but both virtualbox and virt-manager and libvirt are [23:13] but the second one is not for installing OSes [23:13] Jbmorris289: is for docs? :) [23:13] hehehe [23:13] sometimes windows xp is installed on sata in IDE mode, not AHCI ... you might lose them anyway [23:14] Jbmorris289: I mean, just move over the files you want kept, over to the 2nd partition, and done :) [23:14] LaserAllan there is also #xen channel on freenode [23:14] bprompt: ye [23:14] i thought it wasn't going to remove [23:14] Jbmorris289: shouldln't take long, unless you have a PATA hdd with 3200 rpm =P [23:14] im currently on a LIVE session of lubuntu [23:15] nope [23:15] i have sata [23:15] 160 GB (Wow) [23:15] Jbmorris289: you thought you weren't going to remove what again? [23:15] it(lubuntu installer) and documents and other files [23:15] Jbmorris289: So you want to move your personal files to the new partition and then overwrite the WinXP partition with Lubuntu or? [23:16] I'm replacing windows XP [23:16] since its waayyyy to outdated by now [23:16] de-facto: thanks man [23:16] and the second partition is already created === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:16] Jbmorris289: sorry, my chat window was stuck (didn't scroll along), you might have been helped already. disregard my question in that case. [23:16] too* no to [23:17] adrian_1908: oh [23:17] Huh. [23:17] also bprompt [23:17] Jbmorris289: usually you wouldn't want to store docs and media files in the system partition, if they had been saved on the 2nd partition from the getgo, you'd be kosher, but the issue always is there, that in case of a reinstall or something happening to the system, to just reinstall or affect the system, not your files [23:18] Hey all, so I'm back and I worry about the Untity8 thing [23:18] i used UnetBootin and booted from the main partition, will installing still work without Hang? [23:18] And... [23:20] why are IP addresses showing on pidgin when people join.. [23:20] terratoma: hrm, that's possibly true, if maybe it's not available (but it should be) ... really not sure, sorry [23:20] terratoma: did you every try w/o the full path? [23:20] They say hardware will need to support Mir but in the case the company doesn't want to support Ubuntu ? Next issues I see are related to visuals [23:20] Jbmorris289: I don't use pidgin, but I'd think is some setting in it [23:20] bprompt: hm [23:21] nacc: trying. just takes me a while to generate iso, test in emulation, etc [23:21] Hi. I've just installed 14.04 LTS server but the sources.list file only has the cdrom in it. How can I install software? [23:21] why is the folder in the corner shaking every once in a while??? [23:21] Jbmorris289: I mean, is the same in irc, you can check the nicks IP if you want, or simply disable it, depends, if you're looking for individuals from certain region, that can be helpful [23:21] a shaking icon on the dock means it wants your attention [23:22] Jbmorris289: Is the data a lot? And how private is it? If it's not too much, you could upload it to a free online storage service as an extra insurance. [23:22] 8 gig usb sticks are 50 cents now [23:22] adrian_1908: not really that big [23:22] I use MEGA [23:22] (.nz) [23:22] Yeah was gonna suggest MEGA :P [23:22] mega's ui is abysmal [23:22] Hah [23:22] what're you talking about, online storage? [23:23] Yup [23:23] About visuals, i saw some videos with awful stilyzed icons and less rounded/smooth things like the crappy win10 theme ! [23:23] what's mega's free limit? [23:23] 50 GB [23:23] i think [23:23] yes, 50 [23:23] that's pretty decent [23:23] Quetza: did you install it from a cdrom? [23:23] but probably not worth it [23:23] nacc: yes [23:23] or rather, a USB stick [23:23] their UI sucks, and they'll just get raided by a government again eventually [23:24] Quetza: hrm, i thought it tended to put the full sources.list in during the install, but maybe server doesn't, or maybe you had to tell it -- you should just be able to add the appropriate lines to sources.list [23:24] all my files altogether, the size is way less than 50 GB (fortunately) [23:24] is this Unity8 theme be enforced in the future ? Because the actual theme is just the crappy style of win10 with layout of unity7 ! [23:24] nacc: I tried, but nothing worked. I've just run apt-get update and it seems to finally be doing something [23:25] most people don't have more than 30GB or so they need with them at all times :p [23:25] Alway show Menu Options - setting? [23:25] Jbmorris289 how about setting up a proper external backup of your data (possibly encrypted) anyhow? its always a very good idea, data without backup is not really important by definition ;) [23:25] that's including a heavy OS [23:25] Jbmorris289: Unless this poses a threat: "[01:13] OerHeks sometimes windows xp is installed on sata in IDE mode, not AHCI ... you might lose them anyway" I don't see why you shouldn't go ahead and install on the partition of your choice. [23:25] Yuri6037: not sure darker window titles counts as "just like windows 10", but whatever :p [23:26] adrian_1908: I used UNETBootin and used the C: drive to boot, will installatio still work [23:26] Typo. [23:26] Installation [23:26] It seems that apt-get update is a pre-requisite for having apt-get working. would be nice if it were documented somewhere :( [23:26] there [23:26] Quetza: it's in the manpage? [23:27] Quetza: and it's not "required", but if you want to be current, it's necessary [23:27] Jbmorris289: What do you mean by C: drive? Does your mainboard's boot menu assign drive letters, or what are you referring to? [23:27] Quetza: and on any alteration to sources, of course [23:27] for examples the top right dropdowns are realy good and smooth now on the video i saw, that was a creep win10 metro look ! [23:27] Jbmorris289: You booted from a LiveCD/stick, no? [23:28] de-facto: i have, but I think i've formatted my Flash drive too many times and now im worried about it dying sooner [23:28] i try to make it bootable with stuff [23:28] but it somtimes [23:28] doesn't seem to wanna work [23:28] adrian_1908: Nope [23:29] Hard drive, i set it up with unetbootin [23:29] Jbmorris289 yeah there is no really durable option for data except for backing it up on multiple devices, rewriting it and renewing the hw from time to time [23:29] hw? [23:29] hardware [23:29] ..oh [23:30] if i would like to make ubuntu my next system that's to replace win7 when it will be dropped. the problem is that if ubuntu starts to go into the same crappy rendering engaged in win 8, seriously i give up ubuntu ! [23:31] de-facto: so will installation still work even though im booted from the internal hard drive [23:31] that is the question ! And apparently unity 8 is taking some foot in this crappy rendering [23:31] there are other flavors of ubuntu that dont use unity [23:32] i know but i love unity7... [23:32] I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS, backuppc version 3.3.0, and samba version 4.3.8-Ubuntu. [23:32] BackupPC is failing and logging the following when trying to backup Windows 10 users: [23:32] cli_list: Error: unable to parse name from info level 260 [23:32] NT_STATUS_NO_MEMORY listing \\* [23:32] tar:705 do_list fail NT_STATUS_NO_MEMORY [23:32] I THINK it's caused by this bug: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11831 [23:32] bugzilla.samba.org bug 11831 in Tools "smbclient ls command fails on windows 10" [Normal,Resolved: duplicate] [23:32] grrrrrrrr is EFI ever stupid [23:33] robotdevil1: yup, first thing I always do is disable it [23:33] Jbmorris289 if you want to install ubuntu onto your harddrive i would recommend to boot from a livecd/liveusb and test if your hardware works properly with ubuntu. if so you can reformat and install ubuntu onto your harddrive then (but please backup your data before you do that) [23:33] which is a duplicate of this bug: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11822#c6 [23:33] bugzilla.samba.org bug 11822 in libsmbclient "source3/libsmb/clilist.c reads short name length as 2 bytes, instead of 1 byte plus reserved." [Normal,Resolved: fixed] [23:33] and from what i saw on youtube for unity8 is remembering me win 8 shit metro interface and ms making all their possible for the most crappy rendering started with win8. [23:34] Jbmorris289: Yeah, what de-facto said. Strange shenanigans are not worth the hassle. Get a new usb stick if necessary, they are so cheap and have plenty uses. [23:34] is Ubuntu planning on rolling that patch into their package of samba? [23:35] o11c: well I have a HP notebook and I assumed it was installed with EFI and secureboot, so I tried to install grub to the mbr to see what would happen, without changing the bios [23:35] o11c: it made a install that you could reach by pressing the boot order hot key [23:36] JeremyN: is there an ubuntu bug for it? [23:36] which isnt great [23:36] the problem of ms is that they want the system to be identical on mobile and desktop (which is the worst idea i ever saw) and ubuntu unity8 with their phone is taking a bit the same direction. [23:36] Yuri6037 there are loads of different DesktopEnvironments, one for every taste (not only Unity). Just google some further and you probably will find some you like more (e.g. Gnome, KDE, LXDE, Xfce and so on and so forth) [23:36] adrian_1908: i can't get a new one ATM. [23:36] Yuri6037: offtopic (afaict) [23:36] I just installed xfce for my mom's old netbook [23:36] personally I use KDE though [23:36] Yuri6037 look at all the variety of livecds you could choose from: http://releases.ubuntu.com/ [23:37] so then I told the hp recovery whatever it was it recover the partitions and do clean install but with secure boot off and legacy mode in bios [23:37] i love unity version 7 but not version 8 that's all and what i'm worried about is that future isos will be enforced with that unity8 [23:37] Jbmorris289: So you're attempting one of these "launch Ubuntu installer from within Windows" things or? I've never done that. [23:38] JeremyN: on quick searching, I did not find one; you may want to file one [23:38] Yuri6037 if you dont like Unity, choose another iso with another DE, look at the link [23:39] and then tried to install ubuntu and I even made a grub EFI boot partition and installed grub to mbr since it would not let me select the windows EFI or the grub boot partition [23:39] and this install is unreachable [23:40] de-facto: I said you about 10 times already : not unity in general ! Unity7 which is the current i have is great and visualy good. The problem is Unity8. [23:41] http://i.imgur.com/5jOLUoi.jpg [23:41] will there be an option in future ubuntu versions to keep unity7 ? === isp is now known as Guest81109 [23:41] robotdevil1: is windows working right now? [23:42] acer [23:43] Yuri6037: Complaining here won't help. Vanilla Ubuntu is a "trendy" OS, so you'll see contemporary UI design in it. Many users jumped ship to other Desktops far earlier for other reasons. [23:43] Yuri6037: So either go with the flow, or pick something more conservative. [23:43] Yuri6037: with free software, even if nobody else supports it, you can always maintain it yourself [23:44] ok so the answer to my question is no and if i want to keep it i have to touch code ? [23:45] where is the repo of unity7 ? [23:46] the answer is probably not, and if nobody else is going to maintain it, yes, you will have to maintain it yourself [23:46] worried about problems while unity 8 isn't default yet .. [23:46] 1880 people on this channel [23:46] Wow [23:46] https://launchpad.net/unity [23:47] Does macbuntu work with ubuntu 16?? [23:47] i worry for the future... [23:47] oo ubuntu 16 alpha [23:48] Yuri6037: Please express those worries elsewhere like #ubuntu-offtopic. This channel is for productive Ubuntu support discussion only. [23:48] Is there no github things ? Where do i view codes ? [23:49] uses bzr, IIRC [23:49] because Canonical has a NIH problem [23:50] http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/latest/en/tutorials/using_bazaar_with_launchpad.html [23:50] Yuri6037: https://code.launchpad.net/unity [23:50] hi [23:50] hi void [23:51] Ok thanks [23:53] Apparently unity is c++ === root is now known as Guest47139 [23:55] where can I download 15.10? [23:55] Yuri6037: that'd make sense, as C++ is what amateurs choose :p [23:55] petrrms: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+cdmirrors [23:56] where do I download the iso?

[23:57] I cant instal macbuntu [23:57] Jordan_U: [23:59] Jordan_U: I am trying to install a Yosemite OSX theme on Ubuntu, is it possible with 16? [23:59] petrrms: I have no idea. [23:59] Hello, I am trying to get a DVD to play on Edubuntu, but it's not working. Does anyone know if it is easier to get it working on Ubuntu or would Edubuntu be using the same files for this to work?
